My daughter is 27 years old, but she had damage to the central nervous system when she was born . She has grown up to be a lovely person, moody sometimes but basically a good girl with a comprehension of a child of about 12-13

My problem is that she has been invited for a smear test.
As you will know the thought of such a proceedure is not exactly enjoyable for adult females, and I know she does not want to do it.

Given her mental age and celibacy, should I cancel, or is it something that she ought to undergo?

Thank you for taking the time to answer.

All other automatic door locks work, but only if the driver's door is in the unlock position. For instance, I can unlock all four doors with the keyless entry only after I manually unlock the drivers door. So I know it has something to do with the driver's side lock being the controller of the other locks, but do you know how to fix it?

I've heard this alot in the last few days, people saying that Darwin thought the evolution of the eye was impossible:

"To suppose that the eye, with all its inimitable contrivances for adjusting the focus to different distances, for admitting different amounts of light, and for the correction of spherical and chromatic aberration, could have been formed by natural selection, seems, I freely confess, absurd in the highest possible degree."

I'm sure everyone who posts something like this knows that it is a misquote, the remainder being as follows:

When you look at flight technology as it is today, where will airline pilots be in 25 years? There is rapidly increasing automation in airline cockpits, to the point that a plane is essentially capable of take-off and landing (the two most complicated parts of flight) all by itself, and autopilot, which serves to maintain a plane's altitude, heading, airspeed, etc. has existed for many years. With the advent of unmanned aircraft, it is becoming increasingly obvious that pilots will soon be un-needed in the capacity they are today.

I'm just curious; I've been an aspiring pilot for a few years now, and it seems that by the time I actually get there, most of the actual 'piloting' will have been taken over by computers. Now, it's just a matter of getting people to trust a computer with their lives, and the pilots won't be needed anywhere. (except on the ground, to take over in the event of failure).

I'm just afraid that the career will get boring, compared to what it is today.

My boyfriend always orders mushrooms stuffed with crabmeat when we eat out. He pretty much judges the restaurant based on that-If they get them right, the rest of the meal is fine. I would love to be able to make them at home for him sometime. I am no chef, but can seperate eggs if I have too! Please help.

I believe this to be the case in our family. (I asked the question earlier about trusts and wills.) I understand that a guardian and/or parent of a minor child can sue the trustee for breach of fiduciary duty but is that something that I can start or do myself? If so, then how do I start the process? I am located in the state of Washington, do you have any tips or hints for me? Know of any lawyers besides myself just looking for one in phone book and hoping that they are not affiliated with the family. Wouldn't that be a conflict?

In India have an especial system call caste system that differentiate people in big four part.
Brahmin, Kshatriya, Vaishya and Sudra.
Brahmin means human’s month.
Kshatriya means human’s arms.
Vaishya means human’s legs.
And Sudra means human’s feet.

Unbelievable things that the Brahmin could legal kill Sudra, just compensate a goat or other kind of livestock.

What is reason in India have no human right like that?
