Wilson Company prepared the following preliminary budget assuming no advertising expenditures:

Selling price: $10 per unit
Unit sales: 100,000
Variable expenses: $600,000
Fixed expenses: $300,000

Based on a market study, the company estimated that it could increase the unit selling price by 15% and increase the unit sales volume by 10% if $100,000 were spent on advertising. Assuming that these changes are incorporated in its budget, what should be the budgeted net income?

My dad is the only member in our family who chain smokes. The smell in the house is horrific. Can his tobacco be treated with something that won't hurt him but at the same time make his smoking taste rotten to him? Surely someone out there in internet-land has thought of someway to do it. I think his habit is the worst and dirtest there is! Help!

these are the teams that are rumored to be after him
1. Angels- Why would they pay him that much more than Vlad? They would have to re work his contract and would end up with a Yankees like payroll
2. Red Sox- WHAT? They hate him. Remember the fight with Varitek and the slap on the ball.
3. San Francisco- To hard to hit home runs out of that ball park.
4. Cubs- They already spent hundreds of millions of dollars on player and look what that did for them (before they started winning again)

I would like for him to stay, but if he left I would not be fazed because they have won without him. This would be a completely different thing if it was a guy like Posoda, Jeter, or Rivera that wanted to leave,

Hiya. I wanted to write a poem, upon seeing so many others posting theirs. So I just turned this one out a couple seconds ago... tell me what you think. If you're familiar with the story of Clarissa Harlowe, than you might make some connection with it to this poem.

-

Somehow I found
I needed a sign.
What was to be mine-
would've had me bound.

"Should I do this?
-winning dad's approval,
may cause the removal
of that youthful bliss."

The estates slept ahead
unaware of its weight
in my decision of fate
or the battles of mind I led.

"Should I commit?
-oh, how perverse!
Didn't I learn just the reverse?
Land over love! How can I think 't?

Yet, it was pushed into my face.
"Child!," was the scold.
"Wisdom doulbes when you're this old.'
I longed for an agreeing embrace.

"Should I run away?
This mind can't rule--
It can't conquer, nor fool,
mine heart that swelled this day."

That was the oath I put forth,
to shield further damage--
but that Lovelace savage
would give much to remorse.

Hi, my friends parents have a siberian ginseng plant in their garden and would really like to know more about how to care for it and what to do in the way of pruning, watering and general stuff like that. I have looked on the net but only really found medicinal uses and origins of ginseng but no gardening advice. Anyone who can help please speak up now!
Cheers, Donna.

The "live & let live" mantra that so many espouse in here really bugs me.

Theists of any kind provide a base for fundamentalists to build on.

It's like the old adage about pot leading to harder drugs. It dosn't for most, but for many it does. I used to think that line was a load of crap, but life experience has taught me otherwise.

Fundamentalists have a much harder time trying to recruit atheists to their cause than theists.

On top of that, belief in gods, creation and an afterlife is delusional.

Is there any other delusion that we consider acceptable for our loved ones to cling to?

Or do you try and bring them around to sanity?

I'm trying to share a folder where the root of that folder will be read-only but the subdirectories need to be read/write access. I'm having trouble wrapping my head around the process for doing this on any Windows 2K/XP/Server 03 installation. Anyone done anything like this before. Or is it impossible.

I'm on depo provera. It's the one where you take a shot every 3 months.

I'm a month late on taking the shot and I'm already enjoying sex again. During the times that I have taken this (on and off for the past 3 years), my sex drive has disappeared as a side effect. My fiance is ecstatic that I'm back to normal, but what should I do?

Any advice?

Do you think he'll escape serious punishment for his dogfighting involvement and get, at most some kind of misdemeanor conviction. After all he's an athlete and pro-athletes get special treatment in our society. They're above the law in many cases.

I have been on a 1200 calorie/day diet for about 2 months now. I have been working out twice a day(30mins each) every day. I have no lost even one pound. I am gaining a bit of muscle, is this why I'm not shedding the weight? I don't look any different, but I can feel the muscles when I push on it.

They start to act weird and pretend they never looked at you once.

Please don’t say maybe the approach is not well presented; I can break the ice pretty well and act myself.
