The cold war is over. But the US is the most powerful economy and military power in the world. Russia has the second largest stockpile of nuclear weapons in the world, and a nation which occupies 1/4 of the land surface of the earth. Of course they are going to be competitive. And, yes, America has been making many moves threatening to Russia. America began signing treaties with many former CICS countries a decade ago, and placing troops in those countries. Now they are building a large missile defense system right on Russia's border.

Of course the Russians will react. Americans go insane when a small country like Cuba or Venezuala or El Salvador or Nicaragua dare stand up to them. If Russian troops were being stationed in Mexico, or if Russia began placing "defensive weapons" in Mexico, Americans would poop their pants.

Ok, I know of course that it takes two to tango, in order to get pregnant in the first place. But when it comes down to it, in our society today is it really up to the woman if a couple experiencing an unplanned pregnancy has a baby? My long term relationship has ended over my unplanned pregnancy recently (i am 35 weeks along). My ex has since pointed out how unfair it is to be a guy in this situation because when it comes down to it, its really all the womans decision in the end, and how that just doesnt seem right since the child is half his. In an odd way, I can totally see where he's coming from (though im not letting that alter my decision on what to do about this baby, which is keep her and love her with all that I have, and get out of this relationship asap). in a twisted way, does anyone else see how this could be "unfair" for a guy?
(she gets to chose to raise the baby, abort it or hate it put up for adoption)

Question Details: This summer I am an intern at this place and it turns out that I'm not qualified to do a lot of the things that they gave me. My confidence went down the drain. I made mistakes here and there. My boss and the rest of them think I am an complete idiot. My boss seemed very nice sometimes and other times, he ignored me, and couldn't stand me. I felt unintelligent. I know I am not. They are very knowledgeable and quick learners. Not me. I just need the right words to tell them how I feel. I just couldn't relate to them because our weaknesses and strengths are different. Is it bad if i end up crying? I usually do. Emotions too intense. I felt like I didn't fit in with them. There were times when I wanted to open up, but I couldn't. Something restricted me. THIS IS MY LAST CHANCE TO TALK TO HIM. I think he is the type of guy who doesn't give a **** about my feelings. But I AM NOT SURE. Is it worth it. I am tired of feeling like an outsider ALL OF MY LIFE. I don't want to e

I've seen web vids of people using green lasers to pop balloons from a short distance. I've seen some 5mw, 532nm green laser pointers that run anywhere from $10-$20 on ebay. Would those be able to to do this? How close would I have to be to pop a balloon? Also, how does a 5mw differ from a 10 or a 15? Thanks.

I've tried to listen to one before and I dunno, I just don't get into it. Because you hear one static voice for every character that speaks. I find I get lost in it, who just said that? Especially when the person doesn't try to change their voice, or when they do change their voice and it's so...laughable. I prefer to read it myself I think, it doesn't put me to sleep that way.

Does it depend on the type of book it is? Romance audio books I bet would be a real drag...but then I'm a visual person anyway, not really an audio person.

What about you?
