My father's brother recently passed away at a young age. I have heard that if a relative passes away you are not supposed to do somethings for 1 year. What are we not supposed to do? For example, I remember some of my friends not being able to celebrate Diwali.
Is it for 1 year?

We are going to Cozumel leaving Thanksgiving Day and would like to know how formal is formal? Can the guys get away with nice slacks and a dress shirt? Or is it required that they have a jacket and tie? Will they turn you away if the attire is not followed? What is the weather going to be like?

For twenty-three years, God's words (the Qur'an) were truly put into Muhammad's (pbuh) mouth. He was not the “11th author” of the Qur'an, the Qur’an was dictated to Muhammad (pbuh) by Angel Gabriel, who asked him to simply repeat the words of the Qur'an as he heard them. These words were then committed to memory and to writing by those who hear them during Muhammad's lifetime and under his supervision.
Was it a coincidence that the prophet "like unto Moses" from the "brethren" of the Israelites (i.e. from the Ishmaelites) was also described as one in whose mouth God will put his words and that he will speak in the name of God., ( Deuteronomy 18:18-20 ). Was it also a coincidence the "Paraclete" that Jesus foretold to come after Him was described as one who "shall not speak of himself, but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak (John 16:13).

Was it another coincidence that Isaiah ties between the messenger connected with Ke'dar and a new song (a scripture in a new language) to be sang unto the Lord (Isaiah 42:10-11 ). More explicitly, prophesies Isaiah "For with stammering lips, and another tongue, will he speak to this people" (Isaiah 28:11 ). This latter 'verse correctly describes the "stammering lips" of Prophet Muhammad reflecting the state of tension and concentration he went through at the time of revelation. Another related point is that the Qur'an was revealed in piece-meals over a span of twenty-three years. It is interesting to compare this with Isaiah 28:10 which speaks of the same thing.

Say you were in a bad relationship, and felt yourself drifting more and more towards just getting out. This person played you, and you stayed, but you discovered your self worth and realized you CAN be happy by yourself. You were already headed on the way out. In the meantime, you meet someone, and kind of become attached to them. An amazing person with an incredible sense of thought and conversation, and sensuality. You know they most likely won't ever get out of what they're in, even though they are unhappy too, and not getting what they deserved? Do you just chalk it up as "oh well....it was nice conversation?" (This would NOT entail cheating on a current spouse..that would have ended first) What woud you do? Nothing?

Several years ago, I was diagnosed with what my doctor at the time identified as a "left bundle branch block". She told me this was not a severe or life-altering condition, it was probably congenital, and unlike a "right bundle branch block" which can be severe, a left one is not a serious issue at all.

I've have issues with breathing properly, exercise intolerance, pounding pulses, and fatigue. So a new doctor checked it out, and discovered I now have a murmur, which I've never had before and told me that I have a "right bundle branch block", and that a left one can be a worrisome issue, but a right one is not.

What the heck? Which one is right? When I looked online, everything seems to say a right branch block is worse than a left, and I've been by 2 doctors that my block is opposing sides?
So what gives? One Dr. obviously doesn't know what they are going on about, and I have an echo & doppler scheduled next week.

But how hard can it be to tell which side this is??

i ask this because: 1. ill hear one track on tiestos cd and then ill hear the exact same one on ATBs, or vice versa 2. how are the big name djs able to get the rights to play these tracks that are actually being created by unknown djs? 3. are these tracks being bought or given to these artists to play on their cds and in concert? just was curious, after realizing this, i now see that there are not many rivalries between different djs and there is a lot of love and open-mindedness between one another as opposed to the hip hop or rock scene. thanks for answering everyone
