I had been using all of my vacation and personal days to get my home rebuilt, we lost three rooms and had smoke and water damage in the rest of the home.After using all paid time due to me I had to take a leave of absence, we started of with a month, but the contractors had not even begun to finish the job, so had to extend leave, my employer said to take the time and we would fill out the form for leave upon my return, as I did not know an exact date the work would be done. Unknown to me they had started giving me points after the first leave, I got a letter in the mail that I had been terminated for violation of the attendance policy. I had been calling in everyday to let them know what was going on, and had no clue I was getting points, now they say I voluntarily quit! I have been with them for over 14 years. To complicate matters a bit, my husband is a manager with same company. Why did they not say something about giving me points, when I had the understanding I was on leave! HELP

I've decided between two companies to buy a complete skateboard from- Girl or Plan B. Which one should I get?

Girl deck- with Royal trucks, birdhouse wheels, FKD Bearings.

Plan B deck- with Grind King trucks, Birdhouse wheels, FKD Bearings.

Which one should I get? Which one will have the most pop, and be the lightest, last the longest? Those are the most important parts for me.

thanks

I went to my friends house and his parents offered me something to drink, and I was like do you have bottled water, they said yes, but it wasn't cold...so I asked them could they pour it over ice in a cup, of course they had no problem doing that. So I get my cup of water and I notice that the ice was made with TAP WATER, I was so disgusted. How could they give me ice made with faucet water??? I told them that if they are going to try to accompany someone they should at least learn how to buy extra bottled water to make ice cubes with. OMG, they were so rude!

When a conservative is found to be a hypocrite, deviant and criminal, other conservatives decry them as such.

When a lib is snared in a similar manner, other libs stand up and celebrate the behavior.

hospital delivery or home delivery(mid-wife)? I just want to get opinions on this. Do you think it is dangerous for home delivery? Would you rather have doctors in a hospital setting in case an emergency happens with your baby or you, wife, etc.? I am writing a paper on this.

I'm trying to buy a house and i want to get a mortgage through a good reputable credit union. However, i'm not a member of any special group. do you know of any good credit union for mortgage that accepts members through donation. In other words, some credit union will accept you as a member once you've joined one of their affiliated groups through donations. for instance, you can make a donation to a library which will qualify you for the library membership which in turns gets you elligible to join the underline credit union. Do you know of any?

Please help
Thanks

Do not assume I think the answer is yes.

As far as I know, NO major candidate on either the Republican or Democratic side supports same-sex marriage.

So if they are gay (or lesbian) themselves, would you support "outing" them to expose hypocrisy? Or is it nobody's business?

Thanks!

PS I am straight. Don't hate me - I was born this way! :)

For religious people:

Why do you believe in religion and God and all the religious texts?
Is it because you are lured by the promise of all the good things that you will get in this lifetime as well as your afterlife time? Is it out of greed?

Is it because you are a weak-willed person so you think you need "guidance"?

Tell me -------- WHY DO YOU BELIEVE IN WHAT YOU BELIEVE?
And if one day, it is proven that your God does not exist, will you turn against and accuse this religion which you have placed so much faith in and got nothing out of it?


For atheists:

Why do you choose to believe there is no God? WHY?


WHY DO YOU STRONGLY BELIEVE IN WHAT YOU BELIEVE??? WHERE'S THE EVIDENCE? WHAT LEADS YOU TO BELIEVE?

clouds and quit doing drugs? her father and father in law both do.

the father in law even went as far as suggesting that the adoring public boycott her cd's so that she runs out of money and gets help.

Until she hits rock bottom, she and her hubby/bf whatever he is other than all scratched up, are going to continue using drugs.

Atoms (what EVERYTHING is made of) is made of particles and those particles are made of strings according to String Theory. The different particles and thusly atoms are due to the different vibrations of the strings. However we are all made of the infinitessimally small strings. You could conclude that since everything is made of strings then all strings had to originate from the same source. But what are strings? Well they exist in (I believe) 15 dimensions while we only exist in 4 and they are bands of energy. Thus, strings had to come from something that exists in more than 4 dimensions (In other words, beyond the dimension of time) and is of a more energy nature and not so physical as we are. Isnt this how God is described? As an energy (dare I say, a source of energy) and being outside the realm or bounds of time. According to ST, the Big Bang occurred when two membranes bumped each other. What (or who) made the membranes?
