Please please make sure they are capable of looking after them! When i was out with my kids today i saw obvious grandmas and grandads looking after their grandkids! With absolutely no idea of danger! 2 different grandmas with their grandkids in a busy carpark letting toddlers run around, one was on her mobile ignoring a appros 18 mth old girl toddle around in between cars alone! The other was too busy getting wet wipes etc from car whilst a toddler and a approx 4 yr old and approx 2 yr old were around the other side of the car out of her sight! She had previously had to go after the 2 yr old and said " Watch the cars they don't watch where they are going !"
Further up the road another obvious grandchild was being chased by grandad as she ran towards the main road! She was a toddler with no reigns and grandad had no control!
I have seen several examples of this over the years! The main one that springd to mind! Is when i had to do an emergency stop, cos grandma had pushed a pram out

Ok so i know these questions will seem very sad for some..many..most people, but nonetheless I'm going to ask them. I'm going to university this fall and will need to do my own laundry..the problem is I don't know how lol, no joke. So these are the following questons I have:

1) How do I seperate my clothes (is it whites, dark colors, light colors?)
2) Are my underwear and socks in a separate pile?
3) Are my jeans, other pants, or sweaters in a seperate pile?
4) How long should each load take to wash?
5) What water temperature should I use? (Is it hot for whites, warm for light color, cold for darks?)
6) How often should I use bleach for whites?
7) Can you give me a step by step directions for how to wash them like when do I turn the machine on, when do I add the detergent, when do I add the clothes, etc.
8) How long should a load take if I put it in the dryer to dry?

I will be much appreciated if someone can answer these for me!!!

I just read this statistic in a paper today, and I was curious. Why do you think this is, is it societies fault? Is it a lack of personal resonsibility? What do you think the reason is.

By the way I have quite a few black friends that I love and highly respect, and a lot of them feel really ashamed by the actions of other black men, so sorry no racism just curious about why this is.

I rented out a house that still had the electric service in my name. I just found out the guy did not transfer the service into his name and I am being charged for his electricity useage. What legal charges can I file against him? And, can I turn the electricity off since it is in my name, even though he is living in the house? This is in the state of Ohio.
Thanks in advance for anyone who helps me with this situation!

If so, do you support social security reform?

-Social security taxes a higher percentage from lower income workers (13% on the first $90,000/year, 0% on income after that)

-By NO projection will there be enough for today's young workers to retire at a reasonable age. Today's children can just forget it.

-After 70 years, the government has zero dollars to show for this 'retirement account.' Private investments with interest would have doubled the principle at least four or five times - allowing a LOT more money to be available for those who need it AND it would provide capital & liquidity to the businesses that support us with jobs, goods, and services.

-Private retirement accounts are regulated by law and if a corporation treated it like our government treats social security, they would be prosecuted and have their assets seized (Enron)

So, do you support an abuse on the American working poor that is more horrific than any corporate corruption scandal, or do you support change?

I live with my grandparents and we recently lost a puppy (she was hit by a car). We have lots of left over puppy chow and I have a rat terrier, who's about 7 years old. My grandparents feed my dog the puppy chow and I've noticed a slight weight gain with him. I then found out that puppy chow is high in fat so now I'm worried. How bad is puppy chow for my 7 year old little dog?

There is a high demand for Interpretal Cryptology, so there is a hefty sign-on bonus. They also get Top Secret clearance and have an extra year or so to learn an extra language, I'll probably go for Chinese. I have had interest in both though. I've always wanted to be in Cryptology, but I've also always liked and worked with computers also. Any input from anyone in these two fields?
