If not for the litany of law suits that dragged companies kicking and screaming into not endangering their workforce, we would still be working those conditions.

There's a guy at my school who really fascinates me, the way he talks, acts, looks of course too, and it's developed into this crush.
But I don't want it. Although he's very intense and interesting, he goes on and off intensities of friendliness, sometimes really distant. He also knows I like him, but didn't reject or accept my feelings because he "doesn't want to ruin another friendship", but he still flirts with me a lot-later countered by the distancing again. One thing that bugs me is how insensitive he can be, but then other times he'll say something that's really really kind and it just draws me back.

I get so frustrated sometimes when I'm around him, but I'd really like to know him just personally, instead of that added to wanting to just...jump him, or whatever. It's really affecting my mood and attention focus, so

How do I stop this stupid crushing?!
Thank you.

I'm wondering, what are all the possible punctuation marks that I can use (according to formal rules) in the following sentence? For example, in formal writing can I use... a colon, semi-colon, dash-, or a double-dash--?

"I was right in my conjecture; the concept of performing Karaoke with small groups of friends or family in a tiny room hasn't spread to America."

my question is...when using water colors or oil pastels or regular pastels, do you first sketch what you are trying to make and "draw" it and then color it in with water colors or pastels? or do you just use the watercolors or pastels??? any other tips are great! thanks!

The Bible says we are to rejoice with one another, so will you have a little celebration with me? I was just hired from a temp position to a "real" position after 2 years working a variety of temp jobs. Praise the Lord!

There are 3 confirmed dead, and possibly 9 or more dead, in the most recent mining accident. These accidents occur once or twice a year, killing dozens of people (or more) every year. Likewise, there are oil drilling and refinery accidents every year which take human lives.

This one accident has taken more lives than all the lives lost in the entire history of the US nuclear program. Why won't Americans see, while that NO technology is completely safe, nuclear power has the greatest benefits available at the lowest risk? If you believe the Global Warming crowd, it's clear that nuclear technology is the only solution to that problem. France gets more than 1/2 of its energy needs from nuclear power. For once, they're right.

I graduated at the begining of June, but was taking summer classes and never found time to send out thank you notes for many of the cards and gifts I recieved. Is it to late to send them out now or would it be better late than never? I'm afraid that after this long it would seem insincere (I recieved many of the cards in May). Is there a way to explain why I sent them so late, or would it just seem like a cheesy excuse?

I've had mine not even 2 years & the breaks are broken from overuse, the wheels squeak like crazy & I've tried everything which only helps for a little while, the sun visor isn't nearly big enough & it's hard to maneover with one hand. I've heard many other similiar complaints from friends. Anyone else experienced these problems?
