The news was talking about a state (Mass.) who wants to pass a law that states, fat people can sue for discrimination in a workplace if they feel they were discriminated against because they are obese or overweight (same as race, gender etc. laws). What do you think of this?
My opinion is people just dont want to take resposibility for themselves and make excuses by blaming others with frivilous lawsuits.

I was employed by my aunts boss to help out with his new resturant. However, now I am not working for them and he keeps giving me the run around on paying me. The problem is is that there was no paper work done... so really there is no evidence that I worked for him. Being that he was a friend of the family, I really didnt rush to get the papers done b/c it was a last minute job offer. What can be done to get my money for the time worked... I was a waitress for him and used someone elses log in number.

Last Tuesday, I was gone for about 20-25 mins & when I came home I saw the left side of my dog's cheek was really swollen. It' s very near his eye, like high on his cheekbone. I figured he got stung by a bee as he had been outside (I have a doggie door) while I was away. I gave him 2 doses of Benadryl, but the next morning it was worse. I took him to the vet (clinic with volunteer vets to help cost down). Anyhow, she said he had a fever & was concerned that swelling could be infection from something in his gum, but gums looked good. She took a needle to the 'lump' to see if there was any pus & there wasn't. She gave him a cortisone shot, gave me some pain meds & antibiotics & told me to bring him back if it didn't get better. brought him back Friday. Different vet. She thought the same as first, but instead of a needle she took SHEARS and DUG into the lump. He is WAY worse. The swelling is so bad now he can't open his eye. Should I take him to a new vet? There's a sore where she dug.

Hello

I have both a 92 Safari and a 96 Astro. The A/C system seems to work well in the 92 Safari with the compressor cycling on and off at regular intervals. Is that how it is supposed to work?

On my 96 Astro, I recharged the system myself and now the compessor comes on and stays on. Is that how it is suposed to work?

Just curious what an atheist believes a heartache is when a loved one dies, or when a divorce happens, or when a child dies. If we are just animals why do we have heartaches, love, feelings, emotions? So is a heartache a chemical process felt in the heart due to a separation of something that they knew for a while?

Recently I sent my CV to another company in the same industry. Someone who works at that company is a friend of my boss and called him and told him about having seen my resume.

My boss told me that his friend had dimed me out and now he is making veiled threats about firing me because he "can't depend on me being there in the future".

I live in an Employment at Will state, so I assume I have no recourse against my company should they terminate me.

My question is - was it illegal for the person who saw my CV at the other company to dime me out to my boss? Does a person have a legal expectation of confidentiality when they submit a resume in confidence?

I work in a very small industry where everyone knows someone at just about every other company so it's difficult to search for a job discreetely. However, I'm a manager myself and it's always been my policy that while I may inquire about someone, I NEVER call their current company for fear of jeopardizing their job.

A very loud, unattractive, hard-faced woman walks into Tesco with her two kids in tow, screaming obscenities at them all the way through the entrance.

The door greeter says, "Good morning and welcome to Tesco, nice children you've got there. Are they twins?"
The fat ugly woman stops screaming long enough to snarl: "Of course they bloody aren't! The oldest is nine and the youngest is seven. Why the hell would you think they're twins? . . . . . Do you really think they look alike, you ********?"

"Absolutely not," replies the greeter, "I just can't believe anyone would shag you twice!"

I have a new 55 Gallon All-Glass aquarium. I bought it with a wooden stand and canopy.

Ok, question ... the stand is basically a cabinet. For a 55 gallon full of water, its going to be very heavy. Is it a safe design to leave the stand completely hollow? The only thing supporting the tank is around the bottom perimiter. Couldn't the bottom just collapse?

Deut.13: 1 If there arise among you a prophet, or a dreamer of dreams, and giveth thee a sign or a wonder,
2 And the sign or the wonder come to pass, whereof he spake unto thee, saying, Let us go after other gods, which thou hast not known, and let us serve them;
3 Thou shalt not hearken unto the words of that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams: for the LORD your God proveth you, to know whether ye love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul.

A prophet of God must be in agreement with the words of the prophets and the known word of God.

1John 2: 22 Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son.
23 Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: [but] he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also.
24 Let that therefore abide in you, which ye have heard from the beginning. If that which ye have heard from the beginning shall remain in you, ye also shall continue in the Son, and in the Father.

1John 4:1 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.
2 Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God:
3 And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.
4 Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.
5 They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them.
6 We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error.
7 Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God.
8 He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.
9 In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him.
10 Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.
11 Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another.
12 No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us.
13 Hereby know we that we dwell in him, and he in us, because he hath given us of his Spirit.
14 And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world.
15 Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God.

Anyone who claims to be a prophet of God must agree Jesus is the Christ the Son of God who is our savior.

2 John 1:7 For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist

Gal. 1: 8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.

If an angel or a man preach a different gospel he is not of God.

The models I will use will be 1:160 (i.e. one foot would be modeled at 0.075 inches). The Hogwarts Express train I will be using will be in 1:148 scale (i.e. it takes .0812 inches to model 1 foot of structure).

Noble says their Hogwarts model "Measures approximately 13 inches in height," but it looks like most of that is comprised of cliffs, & their Hogwarts is about 7 inches. That would make the Astronomy peak come close to looking 93 feet high next to other American N (1:160) scale structures-- and about 86 feet tall compared to the British N-gauge (1:148) train.

A) Does anyone own the Noble Collection Hogwarts, and if so, how tall is just the Hogwarts portion of it? How accurate is this sculpt based on what we see in the movie and what is in the books? This sculpture has no way of internal lighting, correct?

B) Does J.K. Rowling ever list the height of Hogwarts in any of the books? How tall is the Astronomy Tower? Does she mention the height of any particular landmarks?

My boyfriend who I have been with almost 3 years and live with has jealousy trips. He constantly needs personal space, and usually takes that time to bring his work home. However, when I go out with friends, sister, etc, he gets uncomfortable. If I dont answer my cell phone he freaks out, even if I call right back. I dont go out to clubs or bars, just to restaurants or the mall. On one end, I feel ignored and pushed away by his needing space, on the other, I don't get his jealousy trips. Please advise.
