In my spanish class, other than me + another student, they are all portugues.

4 of them can't speak much english, and 2 are respectful and speak english.
however, 7 of them talk portugues to eachother, knowing that the teachers or english students don't understand what they're saying.

i know that they are proud that their portugues and everything, but i find it unneccesary for them to not speak english and to swear in portugues.

what do you think?

(i apologise for being unable to spell haha!)

A friend of mine was in a relationship. She had $250K and she got a personal joint checking account w/ her partner. They went into business together and opened another joint account for business. Both accounts were set up with a limit that over a certain low amount like over $1000 that both signatures are required. $160k was put into the business account, and her partner lied to her about what the money was being used for to get her signatures, is this considered fraud?. In the personal account she took the remaining money after the $160K was taken out of it and withdrew all the money and closed the account forging my friend's signature. She also took money from her for a house sale saying that she would purchase the business with the money but instead pocketed it and put a loan out on the business instead. Please keep in mind, my friend is a disable woman(Cerebral Pasly) who was taken advantage of. Can she get her money back as well as pressing charges for fraud?

When a band plays live, do they nessecarily use the same FX gear that they would have used when recording the album? I do some recording and I'm trying to get that Deftones, Incubus type Fuzz/Distortion. They probably use lots of single stomp pedals right? If so then is that what they would have used in the studio, or do good studios have an ultimate/secret guitar fx processor that would just make these pedals look bad? Money is not an object in this.

I was in a grocery store getting a few items when I was walk pass a sea food display freezer and slipped in a puddle of water. A couple of employees came over to help me up and all that good stuff and cleaned up the water. I was helped to the front of the store so they could file an accident report when they notice that there safety records for that hour where not signed off by the assistant manager they apologized for the accident and I then went to the ER to get my knee and hip checked out. The X-rays showed that everything was ok and the ER Doctor
wanted me to follow up with my primary care physician. I then had and MRI done per my physician and everything looked ok with that. I then contacted many lawyers and none of them could take the case because I guess I didnt break and bones or something. After all this I contacted the store where I fell and they said they will pay up to $1,500 for medical bills.What do I need to do about this? My medical bills are about $6000.

For Eg.

How much vaccines and cures for diseases come from countries, such as Pakistan or Turkey?

Where the prevalent belief is creation, and this is what is taught in school.

Do these countries contribute to WHO ?

Is this where United States is heading, if they continue to try to teach Intelligent Design?

Any time you feel dumb, don't worry. Check out the following excerpts from a "Wall Street Journal" article by Jim Carlton. Lots of people are dumber than you.

1. Compaq is considering changing the command "Press Any Key" to "Press Return Key" because of the many calls asking where the "Any" key is.

2. AST technical support had a caller complaining that her mouse was hard to control with the dust cover on. The cover turned out to be the plastic bag the mouse was packaged in.

3. Another Compaq technician received a call from a man complaining that the system wouldn't read word processing files from his old diskettes. After trouble-shooting for magnets and heat failed to diagnose the problem, it was found that the customer labeled the diskettes by rolling them into a typewriter to type on them.

4. Another AST customer was asked to send a copy of her defective diskettes. A few days later a letter arrived from the customer along with Xeroxed copies of the floppies.

5. A Dell technician advised his customer to put his troubled floppy back in the drive and close the door. The customer asked the tech to hold on, and was then heard putting the phone down, getting up and crossing the room to close the door to his room.

6. Another Dell customer called to say he couldn't get his computer to fax anything. After 40 minutes of trouble-shooting, the technician discovered the man was trying to fax a piece of paper by holding it in front of the monitor screen and hitting the "send" key.

7. Another Dell customer needed help setting up a new program, so a Dell tech suggested he go to the local Egghead. "Yeah, I got me a couple of friends," the customer replied. When told "Egghead" was a software store, the man said, "Oh, I thought you meant for me to find a couple of geeks."

8. Yet another Dell customer called to complain that his keyboard no longer worked. He had cleaned it by filling up his tub with soap and water and soaking the keyboard for a day, then removing all the keys and washing them individually.

9. A Dell technician received a call from a customer who was enraged because his computer had told him he was "bad and an invalid". The tech explained that the computer's "bad command" and "invalid" responses shouldn't be taken personally.

10. An exasperated caller to Dell Computer Tech Support couldn't get her new Dell Computer to turn on. After ensuring that the computer was plugged in, the technician asked her what happened when she pushed the power button. Her response, "I pushed and pushed on this foot pedal and nothing happens." The "foot pedal" turned out to be the computer's mouse.

11. Another customer called Compaq tech support to say her brand-new computer wouldn't work. She said she unpacked the unit, plugged it in, and sat there for 20 minutes waiting for something to happen. When asked what happened when she pressed the power switch, she asked "What power switch?"

12. True story from a Novell NetWire SysOp: Caller: "Hello, is this Tech Support?"

Tech: "Yes, it is. How may I help you?" Caller: "The cup holder on my PC is broken and I am within my warranty period. How do I go about getting that fixed?" Tech: "I'm sorry, but did you say a "cup holder"?" Caller: "Yes, it's attached to the front of my computer." Tech: "Please excuse me if I seem a bit stumped; it's because I am. Did you receive this as part of a promotion, like at a trade show? How did you get this cup holder? Does it have any trademark on it?" Caller: "It came with my computer, I don't know anything about a promotional. It just has '4X' on it."

At this point the Tech Rep had to mute the caller, because he couldn't stand it. The caller had been using the load drawer of the CD-ROM drive as a cup holder, and snapped it off the drive!

Another well-known one that I can add is the true tale of the user who called up complaining that the instructions said to load the four diskettes into "Drive A" but he couldn't possibly get more than two in

I stumbled across this picture, and it does look like Brittney could have had a broken heel on her boot, which obviously would inhibit her ability to dance. I would even go so far as to say it could have happened when she did that little stumble thing at the beginning of the act. Now just imagine your Britt, you've had all this crap you've been going through in your personal life, you're nervous as heck about a comeback performance, and your damn heel breaks. Wouldn't that just ruin you're overall performance and make you just wanna scream F-ck it and give up(we all saw moments when she didn't even bother lip-synching). I think it could explain alot, perhaps all shouldn't be so quick to judge. What do you guys think about the possible heel scenario?
