Ok so I am now 16 years old 5'8'' and weighs 140 lbs. I have just finished Highschool and DECIDED to go to OCS or other commissioning program for the USMC, I have 4 to 5 years to go before I could join the Military since I will be at college to get my Bachelor's degree until then I commited myself to train hard so that I will be prepared by that time, I know it will be a long rough road since it is Officer's training so I assume it is 10x harder, and unfortunately I am not in shape that kinda way, my eyesight is not 20/20 anymore I need to have glasses to recognize far away objects or faces I will TRY to have Lasik surgery I could only do 3 sets of 30 push-ups with 1 minute interval between sets, I could not run/jog for 3 miles without dripping a sweat plus too much running could trigger my asthma although the doctor said with constant training I could fix that, am currently studying for my SAT and next week I would start studying ASVAB

One thing that shocks me is that most Americans I know are unaware that when in a foreign country, they are bound by the laws of that country despite being US citizens. After telling them this, the very next thing they do is complain about how stupid that is. I know women who have been to Saudi Arabia and were mad that they had to wear veils, saying "as an American I shouldn't have to wear a veil, that's an insult to the ideals of my country". I'm sorry, but when in Saudi Arabia, you aren't in the United States. You could say "oh, you don't know, you're a man". Even though I'm a man, I have been to countries where I had to follow laws I did not like. In Mexico, I cannot say a thing about Mexican politics or else I can be deported, because only Mexican citizens may participate in the politics of Mexico (I wish we had a similar law in the United States). But anyway, why do Americans think they should be above local law, but expect foreigners to follow our law when they come here?

i'm confused with this:

Bm (x24432)
G (355433)
A (x02220)
A2 (577655)
F#7 (242322)
G#m (244222)

do you play F#7 like:
--2--
--4--
--2--
--3--
--2--

Mass=4kg(M), which is immobile and is standing on the equillibrium point,is attached on a spring with k=1600N/m.We move the mass M from the equillibrium spending energy E=288 J and sometime we set it free to move.At the moment the mass M passes from the point D which is d1=0.3*sq.root3 m away from the equillibrium, it collides (headon collision) plastically with another mass m=12 Kg which is moving with u2 velocity oposite from the velocity of M.

Find
1)the velocity of the body (M+m) which is created,just after the collision.
2)the heat produced because of the collision and the energy of the oscillation.
3)the equation of the X of the body (M+m)from the equillibrium,assuming that the moment t=0 the collision happened.(the direction of m is the positive one).
4)When will the body(m+M) pass from the point D for the first time after the collision?

Hint:M is moving to the left,m is moving to the right.

I am very happy with my XTi/400D. am trying to use an old non-digital flash (Minolta 360PX) on the camera.

Anybody have suggestions on how to set the camera and the flash?

The XTi manual (page 152 in the Canadian manual) says that it can synchronize non-Canon flash units at 1/200 or slower.

I set the camera to Tv mode at 1/200, but I don't know what to set the MInolta flash unit to. It's got several modes: TTL (doesn't work at all), M (works sort of) and 3 levels of Auto. PLUS it's got dials and scales for Film Speed, Distance, Flash Coverage, Apeture -- whew!

Anybody have any suggestion on what the settings should be on the camera and on the flash?

I have posted this before but I didn't get many responses and I'd like some nice creative criticism too thanks.

Burial For Love.



You're buried out with the bones of my dead memories in the backyard mortuary next to the cemetary of long gone dreams.
You used to mean everything but now you mean nought, no more do I wish to sought for feelings not worth it and best left forgotten since I've fought them too many times over again and again.
It's no use holding onto to something that goes around and around whining like a broken recording on forever spin.
All's fair in love and war they say but I think nay, everyone has to pay to eventually win.

my son is 2.5 months old, and only falls asleep if he is moving (car, seing, rocking), or if he is lying on someone's chest getting his back rubbed or his bottom pat. i dont want him to think he will get it forever, so how do i get him to sleep without having to do all this, and without him screaming himself to sleep?

" Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, And changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and four footed beasts, and creeping things. Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonor their own bodies between themselves: Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompense of their error which was meet. Romans 1:22-27

Morally I'm Pro Life but I don't vote that way b/c I think to provide a decent quality of life to all those babies, we need more than to slap a law on the books. We need better health care, parenting resources, foster care, adoption resources, welfare programs, education system, and (let's face it) better police protection in 15 years when many of those babies may adopt a life of crime. Since Republicans who would overturn Roe v. Wade are the least likely to raise taxes for any of this, how does the Pro Life camp plan to address these realistic problems?

To me, it makes more sense to try to reduce the number of abortions the "back way"--by bettering health care, higher education and job options for the women most likely to opt for an abortion. There were actually fewer abortions in Clinton's tenure than Bush's--the economy was better and women felt like they had a better shot at making a future for themselves and a baby. I think we need more than just a law to do it right. Thoughts?
