Tell me one thing that happened in your life that made you believe that there is something out there no one can explain. I want to hear your stories. Whether it be a tiny little thing or something that changed your life completely.

It doesn't have to be necessarily God or anything to do with religion, but please be respectful with your post and to other people's post. Everybody is allowed whether you are Christian, Catholic, Atheist, Islam etc. I want everybody who post to just be plain human beings and not divided by religion, race whatsoever.

May your stories bring inspiration, courage, strength and hope to those who need it.

Hi, please can someone advise me?
We thats myself, husband, 2 daughters aged 4 and 6 have tried every way we know possible to try and emigrate to Australia.
In every catagory we seem to come up against a hurdle.
I have 3 children that are in their 20s and left home,all in happy relationships, but that stops us on last remaining relative, even though my mum, dad, brother, auntie, uncle, cousins are all there.
My mum and dad arent in the best of health, my dad has had a major back op and waiting for 2 knee replacements, my mum has a hip replacement but they are not sick enough for us to apply for a carers visa.
Although both myself and my husband have both worked hard, neither of us has a skill so that doesnt help.
I am 44 and hubbies 39.
My brother is a warrant officer in the Australia navy and is in Sydney my parents are in Queensland.
I look at all the peoplle let into Oz on humanitarian and refugee grounds and wonder if there is a way?
If we came on visitor visa would they let u stay

After a BM I noticed one single spot of blood in the toilet. When I wiped there was nothing there and I havent had anything since the one spot in toilet. Should I be concerned? No significant cramping or pain, what do you think it could be. I have my 1st visit on the 5th should I call to be seen now or just wait and mention it at the appt? Thank you!

I'm aching for a baby and I want to get married but It's hard to wait untill we're married for have a baby. I don't want to be 30 and no kids and not married. I want to be a younger mum. My boyfriends keeps saying he wants a baby now, should I give in or should I stick it out untill we're married?

If Jesus said you should just sit there and take abuse by people, (yes he said this --look it up) doesn't that actually make you a total spinelss wuss?
does Jesus wish for his followers to be seen as ineffectual passive pathetic wimps?

I have been feeling really ill the past few days, i am not sure tho if it is just a cold or if i should see my doctor..... I started to get a bit wheezy on saturday but this seemed to subside once i got some fresh air. I then started to feel really drowsy on saturday night so i went to bed and woke up a few hours later with a burning fever and soaked through with sweat, yet i felt really cold and was dithering. The fever seems to have come from no-where. I am now going hot/cold every few minutes, my nose is streaming, i have a really chesty cough, my eyes ache and i seem to have an ear infection as my ears and the back of my head and my neck really ache, along with my muscles, i just feel really tired all the time. What do you think it could be and do you think i should see my doctor or just wait for it to pass? I have also been taking paracetamol and benilyn but this has no real effect......Thanks for any suggestions x

I met a guy in the gay bar the other day who said that he was in the military. So, I asked him (jokingly), "so, you lyed on your application?" He said he didnt because he wasnt gay at the time. He claims he "became" gay. I have one friend that says she used to be attracted to guys but is now lesbian. What do you think about this? I don't think someone can "become" gay and has to be born that way. Maybe that is gay by choice or a need of attention?

I've budgeted myself £150 (strictly no more) to spend on a hi-fi or whatever, ideally one with a usb docking point. Should I go for a half decnt one from Currys or whatever, a traditional midi or mini hi-fi, or get a set from Richer Sounds with an amp and no cables (think it would have to be Bush or one of the cheaper ranges).

What's the difference between the two and what should I do?

Am I the only one in this world who thinks there is big difference between making love and having sex?!! I have talked to several people about this and I haven't found many people (especially guys) knowing this ... Many of them just looked puzzled once I talk to them about this ...
Okay I know sometimes someone might have a lot of feelings for another and they actually have little making love in thier sex ... but I am talking about the real making love. Here is what I think is the difference between them:
* While having sex, the feelings are just dull physical with the goal of just reaching orgasm, while making love I feel that orgasm is something I don't want to reach as it signals the end of heaven.
* During sex, a guy mostly working out the genitals and using the kissing and foreplay as a tool to losen the girl and get her ready for intercourse. While in making love, the couple just worship all body parts and every touch (even touching the hair) sends trembling feeling all over.

I don't know how to ask this, but every time I feel cold , my stomach starts to hurt and I'll go diarrhea. It's not just the cold weather, but maybe like a small breeze and it'll reach my spine and then I feel really weak inside. It's been happening lately... I don't know if it's directly related to this but whenever I eat something in the morning I get stomach problems too. Like I never eat breakfast and even if i take a sip of water, my stomach will start hurting and I'll have to use the restroom. Am I just that weak, or is there something wrong?


Thanks.

A crystal growth furnace is used in research to determine how best to manufacture crystals used in electronic components for the space shuttle. For proper growth of the crystal, the temperature must be controlled accurately by adjusting the input power. Suppose the relationship is given by:

T(w)= 0.1w^3+2.155w+20
where T is the temperature in degrees Celsius and w is the power input in watts:

a) how much power is needed to maintain the temperature at 200 degrees Celsius?

b) if the temperature is allowed to vary from 200 degrees Celsius by up to plus or minus 1 degree Celsius, what range of wattage is allowed for the input power?

c) in terms of the epsilon, delta definition of lim, as x approaches a, f(x)=L, what is x? what is f(x)? What is a? what is L? What value of epsilon is given? What is the corresponding value of delta?

Is it right to be attracted to other cultures?
I keep seeing Muslim women with the head scarf, the Hejib i think it's called. A friend told me that women are forced to wear it because in old days in Arabia the women would sometimes not wear bras and show off thier bosoms to get rich men to adopt them into thier harem.

Anyway, i see these women on the street where i live in East London, and they just do it for me. I think about the forbiddeness and the wrath of God if I am to get my Christian hands on the fruits of Allah. I smell their underarm smelly smells and I imagine how much stronger it would be without the tent over them. I just want them.

My girlfriend is so judgemental & wouldn't understand my feelings. She hates foreigners. Mayeb i should ask her to dress this way at home for me as i know it would bring us closer. But i don't want to lose her because her dad died in the war and she starts blaming all dark people.

What shall i do?

Why I am content? I am guessing that this deeply rooted belief is the reason: "Everything will be all right, regardless of anything."

I feel dissatisfaction at times, I feel upset at times, I feel angry and confused many times, I search for peace and find it, only to be disgruntled again, just like most people.

But I never worry. I may analogize and feel concern for others' predicaments. I often try to empathize. But personally, I have no worries. When I'm afraid, my belief comforts me.

I am never truly or significantly worried about anything.
Despair and depression are impossible for me.

This is why I say, I am content: because I am never worried.
I need some suggestions. I'm curious.

Why am I never worried?
Why do I believe that things will always be all right?
I have experienced plenty of pain in life, but I have always been able to rise above it. And I cannot imagine not being able to do so. Why is this?

Why are so many people unable to sustain such unworry?

1) Suppose that we have two events A and B with probabilities P(A)=.40 and P(B)=.60 and P(A intersect B)=.20. What is the conditional probability of P(B|A)?

2) Find the probability for P(X) U P(Xc) ?

3) We have a Venn Diagram with two events represented by sample space A and B, and these sets are: A={a,b,c,d} and B={a,a,d,d}
If we represent P(A) U P(B), we will highlight the area in the diagram where?

A) A and B share space and this area will include only a and d elements.
B) all of A and B's shared space and this area will include a, b, c, and d.
C) The area outside of A and B events and this area will include a, b, c, and d.
D) The area of A and B that is not shared and this area will include b and c.

Please explain the solving process.. Thank you.

Sometimes when I pray to God, he answers my prays! (Thank You Jesus)

Sometimes when I pray to God, he does not answer them. But that means that all I have to do is wait... Good things come to those that wait. (Thank You Jesus)

Sometimes when I pray God he says No. But that means that either it is not apart of the "Bigger Picture" or I`am being selfish.
(Thank you Jesus, you have my best interest at heart)

Man I wish they had a God casino. If prayers were like bets I would be a rich man by now. We can`t lose with prayer!

As you can see it`s a scam you are delusional. You would get the same results from praying to a milk carton.
