Many people assume that Muslim women are oppressed because they wear coverings over their hair. so do Orthodox Jewish women, but I've never heard THEM called "oppressed". Why do you think that is?

In the 1970's, Bill Cosby posed the question "Why is there air?" and concluded that it was so one could blow up basket balls. A more timely question is "Why is there ice?"

The mean temperature of the Earth is somewhere between 5 and 19 degrees Celsius, depending on whose data is used. Since this entire range is well above the freezing temperature of water, then it is evident that without the spatial variation of temperature across the globe, Earth would not support the existence of water.

More importantly, if the spatial variation of temperature were reduced, i.e., there existed sufficient atmospheric mixing and/or changes in ocean currents then the polar ice would melt. This would not require any increase in mean temperature, no global warming, no greenhouse effect.

One consequence of this observation is that the melting of polar ice must be discounted as an indicator of global warming since other mechanisms exist that could be responsible.

It was leather bound with gold leafed inserts of the papers. I thought I should send to President Bush at the White House with a note saying: "I think you might want to glance over this, it's kind of important." What do you think?

I just bought a big crepe myrtle and california pepper tree in a 15 Gallon bucket from a local grower, the trees are very big , they are like 2.5" trunk diameter. when i bought the trees, the guy had to cut off a couple big roots from the tree that were growing out of the bucket to the ground. he specifically told me there is no warranty on the tree becos of that reason, at that time, the big trees were already on the truck so i just took them home. a week has gone by, now both the tree seems to be dying, the leaves look curly and dry and they are losing a lot of leaves. i have no idea wether are they dying or in shock? is it worth transplanting them to the ground? please advice.Thank you! P/S: i had learned my lesson and think i'm being punished for being greedy on getting a big tree out of a small 15 gal. :~((

I tried calling my friend's cell phone for the past couple days and I couldn't reach him. When he finally called back, he told me that he had no reception. But what was weird was that i heard rings on my phone instead of it jumping to voicemail. is this possible, or is he just lying to me?

I have these neighbors right across the street from me, they continually drink and deal drugs right in their front yard. The cops are called over & over and nothing is ever done about them. They are becoming more violent towards each other & my family, my kids can’t even go outside with out them threatening my children, my kids are 12 & 6 and when my oldest goes to the mail box they call her a whore and tell her “you better get your B*tch As* back in your house.” When we open up the windows to get some fresh air they start screaming at us. We’ve called the cops, they come and then nothing. We can’t join the neighborhood watch because they’ve already threatened us so many times we’re afraid that they’ll shoot us. We can’t even go outside without them constantly yelling and cussing at us (they know we’re the ones who keep calling the cops and that makes them angrier) What can I do when the Cops won’t do anything? I’m not even allowed to video tape them because it invades their rights.

PUCK
Through the forest have I gone.
But Athenian found I none,
On whose eyes I might approve
This flower's force in stirring love.
Night and silence.--Who is here?
Weeds of Athens he doth wear:
This is he, my master said,
Despised the Athenian maid;
And here the maiden, sleeping sound,
On the dank and dirty ground.
Pretty soul! she durst not lie
Near this lack-love, this kill-courtesy.
Churl, upon thy eyes I throw
All the power this charm doth owe.
When thou wakest, let love forbid
Sleep his seat on thy eyelid:
So awake when I am gone;
For I must now to Oberon.
