I was under the impression that only tanks that are 10G and above should be cycled, so I didn't plan to cycle the 5G.

Two days ago, I brought the tank home, washed it out, filled it with treated water and some aquarium salt. I put in an Indian Almond Leaf, two live plants, some Taiwanese moss and the one betta. There is no filter in it yet. All went well.

The next day when I came home, the water was a bit cloudy and sort of yellowish-green. I thought the IAL might have been causing the colouration, so I removed it. Today, it's worse. The water is still cloudy - no visible particles, but just sort of murky. The greenish colour is still there - there's no algae or anything growing on the tank walls, and the tank does not get direct sunlight (nearest window is about 5 feet away.)

I've read that putting live plants into a tank will cause a cycle to start going. Is this true? Should I remove the plants? Is this harmful for my fish? How do I get rid of the cloudy water?

My nephew was picked up on a bench warrant for failure to appear. He never recieved notice of the court date and when he contacted his public defender he was told, to let the public defender do his job. My question is this, in order to get him out of jail, he needs a 1600 cash bond, but they were not sure if we could go through a bail bonds man.

why is there so much disagreement about them?
Isn't your god able to provide a text that everyone, despite their differences, able to agree upon? Or is that one of his limitations?

All I can remember is a huge farm house with a big court yard and steel ornamental fence on the front. Mom married a German soldier in '42 and she stayed till given Russian occupation ultimatum in '45; divorce or move., I remember a barge with many women and kids, babies, baby carriage and feather bed, (just the feather cover ) and that's all. I've never been back. Mom, 85 , goes back every year.She had 5 sisters , 2 still alive, one last jear went to a extended care old age home. I know that one of my cousins family has a vinyard and sell their own wine. Mom brings back momentos every year for all of us. This year my sister went with her.
The odd time I feel nostalgic and wonder whether I should leave myself with the memories i have or take a chance and go - taking the chance of having my idea of the old place, "The Burst Bubble syndrom " I think it;s called, destroyed. Also called a reality check. LOL

trying to disprove what they say does not exist. IE: God. I do not believe in the toothfairy, It doesn’t bother me if someone else does that their own mistake if they do. I hear from your side “because you people force your beliefs on MY government” But I say that works both ways, some have FORCED your belief of evolution (which there is not one shred of evidence to support) in to the schools as fact. The new religions of Global warming and its high priest Al Gore, force their views and ideals into our government’s policies, the schools, our workplaces, even into our trash cans, that is far more intrusive than any church has attempted to do to you, so why the double standard?

It is becoming out of control. Seriously. I cannot control her. She goes off doing things that she isn't supposed to do. I tried everything...spray bottles, NO, and have come to hitting her a bit. Is there anything suggested? I really need to get her behavior in shape. She also chews like crazy on my wires n cables.

Ok. My friend is really confused and I don't know how to help her so I need help. Here's the story. We went to a party and she hung out with this guy we are all friends with. His girlfriend was talking to me in the hot tub about the girl he was hanging out with. She was asking questions like"do you think he likes her and stuff like tht i was emailing her and she was saying how she knew his girlfriend was mad and she does like the guy soooooooo much but he has a girlfriend. And his girlfriend was saying I am going to dump him because he was hanging out with her and then said she wouldn't and she kept going reasons to dump him and reasons not to. And my friend wants them to break up because she really likes him but his girlfriend would kill her if they broke up and she went out with him. So what should my friend do?

I need to put my kids in daycare so I can start school online at the end of the month. I have a referal from dcf for both kids but I am thinking of just putting my oldest in daycare...he's 22 months. My other is 8 months and I am not sure if I want to part with him yet. He's still breastfeeding and he's so quiet so he's not much of a bother. But I would feel really bad if I just put my oldest in daycare and not the other. The daycare down the road said I could have the infant spot but I'd have to come today to get it bc she said she never has an opening. Should I take it and put both boys in or just one?

I grew up a Christian and was always tought that if I did not accept Christ as my savior that I would be doomed to hell after my passing. After speaking with a close Buddhist friend of mine (who thinks very highly of Jesus Christ) she insisted that if I were to embrace differering beliefs, as long as my heart was pure and focused on good deeds that I would enter a "different" heaven than that of Christianity. Can anyone (a practicing Buddhist or Christian) please help shed some light on how to live as a good person, following my heart to bring good deeds to the world without the fear of going to an eternal place of suffering because I did not embrace the teachings of Christ? Shouldn't my good deeds, delivered with pure intent from my heart dictate how and where I end up after this life? Any input from practicing Buddhists and/or Christians would be greatly appreciated!!

I ask this question because I read many answers here where people claim to have "made the choice" to believe in God or Jesus or Allah and the such like.

This makes me wonder whether belief is something that is arrived at through understanding and contemplation...or if it is something that one can just "adopt" out of convenience.

How for instance could I just "choose" to believe that I am the sexiest guy on Earth, (because that would be nice).

By the way I do believe in God, but it took years of being a curious questioning non-believer before I could make the transition. Is there another true path?
