I am told there is this Suzan Polgar Chess Tournament exclusively for women. As we all believe that women are no less intellectually gifted than men I do not understand why there should be a separate tournament for a board game which only depends on mind power. I am also told that women have different ratings and rules for achieving Masters and Grandmasters. Why?

He's earned none of the respect he's gotten and he can't take care of an engine. And don't tell me it's a conspiracy by Teresa to rig his engines. There's too much money involved in so many ways for that to even be considered true. Hendrick might give him a bump and he should make the Chase one of these years but he'll never be a Champion. He is a good racer but engines are not indestructable and the good drivers make sure they have an engine at the end of the race.

Many scientists believe that Homo Erectus eventually developed into humans, or Homo Sapiens. Scientists once thought that Neandethals were ancestors of modern humans but no longer do. These hominids appeared 200,000 years ago. They lived in caves of built shelters of wood of animal skins. At one time, they were thought to be rough and wild people. Now scientists think that they may have had religious beliefs. These people found ways to survive the freezing cold of the Ice Age. About 30,000 years ago, the Neanderthals strangely disappeared. About 10,000 years before these people vanished, the Cro-Magnons appeared. Their bodies were just like those of modern people. Scientists think that these people worked with one another in planning large scale hunts of animals. They may also had more skill at speaking than did the Neanderthals. B/C they had these skills, the Cro-Magnons were better at finding food. That may explain why Cro-Magnons survived and Neanderthals didn't.

The President spoke up against it. The Senate censured it. But Move On members did not apologize for the slam against General Petraous and his Iraq Report. Do you think the Liberal organization went too far? If so, why didn't the President and the Senate censure the Swift Boat Ads. Both Ads concern military personnel. If John Kerry's reputation less important than that of General Petraous? Or should these hateful Ads be banned altogether?

Is sweating the burning of calories... or is it just dispelling water and not fat? I know some people sweat more than others so does that mean they burn more caloreis than others?

I got highlights 2 days ago and I never got around to asking the stylist if I had to wait a certain amount of time before washing my hair at home. Does anyone know if I have to wait a certain number of days or can I wash it now? Thanks for the help!!
