I am a new non-meat and non-dairy and non-egg eater, and I am taking a speech class. I have to give a persuasive speech (5 minutes), and at first I was going to talk about non-animal eating in general, but I was having a difficult time fitting it into the time limit, so I decided to just speak about not consuming milk and milk products.

What are some key points I should make? I want to talk about health aspects and animal cruelty aspects -- I am mainly having trouble with the health part. Thanks!

This matter was a small matter but is turning into a big matter. I called my husband at 8:00 a.m. - left a message and asked him to call me back if he could within a half an hour because I would be immersed in meetings for the rest of the day. He called me at 3:00 pm - busy with work all day. He told me that he didn't get my message until 10:00. Our cell phone bill came electronically the next day -- I looked it over and discovered that he checked his phone messages at 8:05 -- realizing that he'd gotten my message right after I called!! I pointed it out and he changed the password on our cell phone bill - and got super pissed at me...screaming and telling me that I had trust issues. I trust him. I wasn't even mad that he didn't call me back - - just that he had fibbed about checking his message. Now, he's making statements like, 'I treat you well and am treated like this!' Should I feel bad or wonder if something else is going on?

Why would a teacher choose to give students a specific set of activities to explore without allowing the students to explore their own questions and collect and interpret their own data?

I found this book called The Easy Way To Quit Smoking by Allen Carr. When he claimed this book would help me quit smoking without alot of will power, I thought he was full of crap. But I read the book, and it actually works. I'm so surprised. I've been quit for 5 days now and its not even bothering me. If you see the book, pick it up. They should give it away for free.

Here's why the Browns have so much talent they have Anderson at qb and Brady Quinn should be able to start and be like the next Dan Marino. I know the Browns lost the first game of the season but that game was a fluke, It was a close game. Im saying for a final score the Browns 41 Bengals 10.

Do you have to be a US citizen to join the National Guard? I've heard National Guard soldiers referred to as citizen-soldiers, but I didn't even know you had to be a citizen to join. I'm pretty sure you don't have to be a citizen to join the active duty Army because they have a program to help active duty Army soldiers become citizens. If you don't have to be a US citizen to join the National Guard: 1. What percentage of its soldiers are not citizens. 2. Why are they called citizen-soldiers?

This has been stumping me.

When a camera flash goes off, the batteries immediately begin to recharge the flash's capacitor, which stores electric charge given by the following. (The maximum charge capacity is M and t is measured in seconds.)
Q(t) = M(1 - e^(-t/a) )

Hi. I have a visa debit card provided by the bank, but it is extremely rare that i ever use it. It has been several months since i used it last. The reason i stopped using is because last year i purchased a 12 ounce for $2.56 using the debit card, but didn't know that i had no funds in account (the employer delayed the start of direct deposit by 1 week). And then i was fined $33. So the 12 ounce coffee cost me $35.56 altogether! After that i never used the debit card again, and only used credit card thereafter. But now the bank sends frequent letters to encourage use of debit card and that if i use debit card, i will be pre-approved for some other deals offered by bank. So should i start using debit card again?

I have a friend whom I used to be close with until the last year or so when she started dating a drug dealer. She is now 7 months pregnant, as well as a mother to a 4 year old boy, and lives in a 1 bedroom house with this man and his 'business'. She smokes pot all the time, around her child, as well as being pregnant. I don't know what to do. I would like to say something to put her in a situation to stop, being a mother myself, but I have seen so many other women just get a 'slap on the wrist' when caught in the act. Would it even do any good to mention something to authorities? Who should I tell? Her doctor? Child protective services? No one? Is it even my business? I feel like being a mother myself, SOMEONE should step in for her kids' sake. I feel like my hands are tied. She got caught with pot in her house two years ago also and child protective services drug tested her for about 6 months. She stayed clean for that long, and they left her alone. What should I do?

What do people expect to be an answer when they ask me (a white female) "why do you date black guys?"

My answer is usually why not. Because I never really thought about it. And honestly I feel why not, I see no problem with it. So what are these people expecting?
And if you have been in this situation, what has your answers been?
And if not, why don't you date interracially?
