I just don't understand! I'm looking at statistics and every year there are over 400,000 US deaths directly related to smoking. The Iraq War has drawn a little over 3700 US casualties. I feel the war is stupid and that we are under a misconception there, but why are the tobacco companies not stopped? It does not seem fair. I'm very novice when it comes to the tobacco and war debate, however just by looking at the numbers, this is what I get out of it. By all means this is not anything against the soldiers fighting for our Country. I wanted this to be more of a debate between the Deaths these two things have caused.

I live in Florida which is a "right to work" state. This means anyone can be fired for any reason or no reason at all. I am considering two jobs; one is union with British Airways and one with a Real Estate company posting their rental listings on the web.

The airline pays $12.75/hr plus bonuses up to $200 a month and is close to my home working in an inbound call center taking or changing reservations. It is union which one has to pay dues for, though I don't know how much that costs is or what benefit it gives.

The real estate office if further from my home paying $12.00/hr in a more intimate setting, hosting photos and descriptions of rental properties, which I think I would better enjoy.

The real estate company could fire me at anytime by our state laws, but I'm not sure that the airline could without just cause, being union. At the same time, in a union the last to be hired is the first to be laid-off.

I will give 5 stars to any union or former union employee to assist me.

I've heard that the money I make off of the house could be penalized via capitol gains? Or that I might have to "do" something with the profit such as use it toward another home? I want to use the money to pay for schooling and to live off of while attending school, is that possible?

2x-3y = -7
4x -y = -14

what I keep on getting is no solution. when I do substitution it gives me -14 = -14.

i also get no solution for the following:

5x+2y= -3
15x+6y = 15

It's a children's book, and I think it may have been part of a series - there was a family of giant dolls that were alive. I can't remember any character names, but I remember one of the boys in the family was blue.

No, I'm not pregnant but after couple months of trying to figure out when I ovulate, I finally saw a positive!!! I just didn't know when I ovulated..either I would start too early like day 10 and then gave up after 7 tests! Then last month I was travelling and stressing for no reason......Even though it's been couple months, it seems like forever!

I've purchased all sorts of ovulation kits and really saw no hope....I thought I'll have to wait couple more months....maybe obgyn would prescribe clomid....anyway, my question is...

Now that I've seen a positive, should I just have sex now? I realize that I can ovulate anywhere from 12-36 hours...some say you're supposed to wait till the next day.....or do you think I should have sex the next 3-4 days? What do you think?

IM SO EXCITED!!!

I use to sing for my ex all the time while we were dating and he loved it. I've known my current boyfriend and soulmate now for 5 years, about 1/2 a year longer than my ex. We've been dating for almost 8 months now. He's always been my best friend and has wrote several songs for me over the years and sung and played them on his guitar for me. I sang for him once and had gotten cut off half way through the first verse. I didn't think he liked it too well because he never gave me much feedback. That was until I started crying because I felt so embarassed and stupid for singing. Now that time keeps passing by he wants me to sing for him more and more each day. He says he even dreams about it and thinks about it before going to bed at night. But since my confidence is down and I really feel like I'm not a good singer I just can't bring myself to do it. So what the hell should I do?! Please HELP!!!
