I need to get a granite headstone for a family member. I am particularly interested in the black ones.
My concern is how much the color will fade over time. Is it better to get a lighter color so it attracts less sunlight?

you may not be a bed of roses,
and you're no friend to those with noses .

I had to delete most of my partitions so that I could combine them to make one but something went wrong. I did using the Vista installer & all my drives accidently got wiped out except for my software drive, which is still intact.
I have made new drives & I tried installing Win XP in either drive (except for Software drive as it does not have enough space) but it does not work!
After extracting all the files from the Win XP Cd onto the hard drive the system restarts & the main setup does not start instead its says "NTLDR MISSING" ..Press enter to reboot PC with bootable device...
I can't go anywhere after that cuz if I press enter it goes back to the XP cd & everthing starts all over again & it keeps going on a loop & does not stop!...
Plz help....
thanks...

I am a mormon and i honestly want to know why people bash us so much...we don't bash any religion! So we believe in the Bible and the Book of Mormon...is that really a reason to hate us because we are different? if thats the case then how come people don't bash religions that they don't believe in?

We are different but there is no reason to put us down and talk about us so horribly! I would never think of doing that to anyone else...
I want honest answers!

Okay, we have talked to two different lenders and got two different answers. I think I may have misunderstood them....
What is the maximum % you can borrow with a HELOC in Texas. Let's say the house is worth $100,000 and it is COMPLETELY paid for. Best case/ credit scores etc. scenario...Shouldn't we be able to borrow 80%, which is $80,000? The chic at Bank of America said the limit in Texas is 50%, but the guy at the other place said it was 80%. I'm confused!

I have been pumping to relieve the pressure of the excess milk but now I think my body is producing even more milk than is needed. I can't go from 1 feeding to the next without expressing some milk or pumping because it's really uncomfortable and my son can't latch on if I'm too full. What do I do?

Please do not quote the bible, it's your holy book, not mine. What I want to understand is why Adam would not be God's son, he was born without a father or a mother. Or Eve, born without a mother.

When did Jesus claim he is God's son. Praying to "Father" in heaven is done to this day, does this mean that Christian's see themselves as God's children? If it's a figure of speech, then why wouldn't Jesus's words also be a figure of speech and be taken literaly as father / son?

I am thinking about doing ROTC throughout college--and hoping for a career field in intelligence.
When I get out of the AF, I would like a government job with the Pentagon, or Department of State, etc., (I know going through AF does not automatically guarantee me a job anywhere--but it could possibly)
I know someone who was an intelligence officer and she said that I have to be very specific on what type of intelligence work I want to do, IF I want a governement job when I get out. She said, for example, it would be pointless to do intelligence where I am just working with planes and different types of aircraft. She said I'd need to do counter terrorism, defense, etc.,

She also mentioned that as an officer in the AF, you give orders instead of doing--most of the time, if not, then all of the time. What I wondered is if anyone has had ANY experience with ROTC (particularly intelligence--and if they knew anything about working in counter terrorism)?

The question is NOT how you feel about Houston or Miami. the question is about the Houston player (I forget his name) after he taunted an unconscious Trent Green and stepped over his head while he was down after the play.

this is how I feel:

I think that the Houston player was grossing inappropriate for taunting Green like that. Especially stepping over his head. When you see a player that is unconscious on the field you know that something is not good with that.

The houston player claimed that he was angry because he thought Green was trying to hurt him by going low. this is not the case and he knows it he is only trying to cover up his actions after he did that to an unconscious player. His block was not illegal because he did not intentionally try to hurt the houston player.
the Houston player is garbage and should be traded to the New Orleans Saints next year so he can play with the rest of the garbage in the NFL.
