So we know that if an ice cube floating in water was to melt completely, the water level would still remain the same as it was when the cube was floating in it. In that case, why does the hole in the ozone layer cause the water levels to rise? If I understand corrently, the hole is close to the North pole, and the Arctic is just floating icebergs (if it were a continent like Antarctica, then the rising water levels would make more sense). This has been bugging me for a while... Thanks!

My mom ordered a dress for my bros wedding and the store does not accept returns. After waiting for two weeks the company said the dress she wanted was no longer available so they ordered a similar one for her. When she received the dress it was completely wrinkled, poor quality, and threads were coming out of some seams. She ordered the dress to have extra length and it does not appear to be and the store does not have the dimesions that it should be to check. The jacket it came with would barely fit a child. Despite the no return policy (and horrible customer service), does she have the right to return it if she is completely unsatisfied?

I'm bored and thinking about my current investments and the future.
I'm 25 and single. I've been with my current employer for one year next month. My base wage is about 33,500 a year with pleny of overtime and holiday pay. I'm currently on pace for $42,000 and work very little overtime, I make what the average household in my area makes. I plan on buying a home about this time next year but aside from that, I'm looking for places to tie my money up so I don't waste too much of it.

Next month I'm eligible for the 401k at work. My employer matches 50% up to 6%. I plan on giving the 6% to take an extra 3% upfront. I've also been sending a couple hundred a month to prosper.com. I love that site! I tried trading stocks but I don't have the time to babysit and keep up to speed. I have a buddy for that anyway. I'm looking for other ideas? Self-directed IRA? What else? Thanks.

PS I plan on staying in the 15% tax bracket this year and next.

i juz finished writing these, and i havent wrote an entry for months.. juz wanna know if this is okay.. hope ud share ur opininions.. i would really appreciate it..

A Flock of Murderers

they flew past me
performing a v-shaped death
across the crimson sky
they left me behind
with a guilt-colored paint
splashed upon my face
my fear stricken eyes
matched perfectly
with my ghastly image...

i tried to wash away
the physical damages that it dealt me
i tried to block my view
still..
images flashed
and polluted my mind

i whispered to myself
as the murderers landed upon my shoulders...
i might have got rid
of what they could see
but fear, guilt, and insanity
clung and seeped
within my very soul..

took all over me.....

I could probably stop staying up till 4 in the morning and sleeping till noon. Less caffeine, maybe? Oh wait, I know. It's the paranoia. Why are you up? What are you doing? I'm...doing...this!!!

It makes no sense for God to create everything that he supposedly has, when he only needed Earth for his experiment.

An electric field passes through a dielectric medium....lets consider its intensity to be "Z". When this field passes through a dielectric medium what will be its intensity when it emerges out of the dielectric medium; just outside this medium?...in other words....what will be the intensity left when it move out of the medium on the other side?

Z/K?...where K is the dielectric constant

Okay, I was born in the end of january and my aunt is always saying that kids that are born in this month usually have an unusual way of seeking for attention. Sometimes isee this true but other times i dont. I dont know if its jus me as person who does this or everyone. Ive read in some astrology books that people who are have the aquarius sign usually can have all the attention but they will always kind of feel lonely. I was wondering if anyone else who has the aquarius sign feels this..or if it is jus me as me..hahh.
weird question again..lol

My cats gums are pink but get pretty red right at the gum lines. I mean one of my cats has the normal (I think) sort of pink ribbon on his gums right above/below his teeth but my other kitty has a "ribbon" above/below his teeth that is a bright red. I know this sounds like I am being ignorant but seriously is this something I should be worried about?

i have a question my business partner and I started a business selling t-shirts, we made a shirt thats say " i stay sucka free" ( heres a link to the design we have for our T-shirts )
http://pic70.picturetrail.com/VOL1870/8518950/15831699/241282803.jpg

My partner and I registered with the City of San Francisco for a business license, have our EIN FBN ect.. Are company is named I STAY SUCKA FREE CLOTHING.

Apparently unawarely there is a clothing company named Sucka Free Clothing. We were contacted by the owners attorney, and she informed us that her client owns the trade mark right to sucka free and sucka free clothing.The attorney had our pay-pal account blocked and told us to remove everything off our myspace page referring to i stay suckafree clothing.. and to give her a copy of all are inventory so she can assess the matter, but we decided not to give it to her.

We, then talked to the attorney again and informed her that we understood that her client owns the trade mark to sucka free and sucka free clothing, and that we were more than willing to drop the i stay sucka free clothing we agreed that it would cause confusion. So now we are in the process of getting a new name... But that we both didn't agree to stop selling our shirts because are shirt are a artistic statement that says " i stay sucka free" . We also decided we were going to add to the design "its a way of life", which differs by theirs "sucka free". Not to mention that the
designs are totally different.

heres a link to there info there is a specimen of there design on there as well
 
http://portal.uspto.gov/external/portal/tow?SRCH=Y&isSubmitted=true&details=&SELECT=US+Serial+No&TEXT=75518077#

we really would like to know if we have the right to sell our shirts we feel that the designs and the concept are totaly different

thank you
