Soooo my roommate has a stinky poor smelly dog, that i'm allergic to. He lives in the basement apt with my roomie. The dog now has an infection where his entire right side of his head is swollen, looks like elephantitus, but it's really, just swollen due to infection.

He won't take it to the vet. The poor baby is 10 years old and 115 lbs, and won't even come up the steps for me, so I don't know how to get it to the vet, but I'm afraid he's going to die. I'm also afraid if I take him, (i'll have to do it behind my roomie's back), they'll put him to sleep which is SO NOT my business. What do you think i should do?

I can think of many, many reasons why I'd rather downgrade to XP, but can anyone point out some reasons why I should stay with Vista? I am so close to going back to XP. Running vista on my 2GB, AMD Turion X2 notebook is like running XP on 256MB, Pentium 3.

Liberals HATE the fact that exectutives make a lot of money but I NEVER hear them complain about the amount of money their liberal donors in Hollywood make per picture. Should "actors" who PRETEND for a living make more money than Executives who run companies?

Most US corporate leaders believe chief executives are overpaid and do not provide value for money for their com­panies, according to a study that will embolden critics of excessive compensation.

The findings – to be published today by the National Association of Corporate Directors – are likely to strengthen calls by investors and politicians, including George W. Bush, US president, for restraint on executive pay at a time of growing income inequality in the US.

I have worked at my job for 2.5 years. I have been trying to move up or over to another dept. because I am burnt out at what I do and need a change. I had an interview last week. I get real nervous and I break out in red spots all over my face, neck, and chest. (I had a low cut shirt on) When they asked me my weakness, I said "Anxiety because I turn red and it's really embarrasing" As I was saying this, I felt myself getting hotter and I knew I just made it worse. They started laughing and said, "Well at least we won't have any problem reading you" lol

How should I take that? oh and at the end they asked me "Why do you think we should pick you for this job?" and I drew a blank because i was so nervous. I don't even remember seeing them. It's like I was so nervous I went blind (not really).......I think I said something like " OH gosh, you asked me a crazy question" or " I don't know"

I was wondering if I can still get pregnant anytime of the month? Or just during my peak fertility days? I know there are two days in the cycle that are the best times to get pregnant, but can women still get pregnant anytime their cycle?

Apparently according to you guys Turkish history books don't teach the right things. "You are soooo cultured and apparently made a lot of researches"!!!! (or watch TV and read wikipedia a lot)
How come you are sure that your history facts are not based on lies? Because for me this is the answer you give when you can not find answer to certain questions.
Are you all historians or working with historians? Have you read all the history books existing to decide what is right or wrong?

Ok, my husband has this "friend" who I've never met. Before my husband and I got married he called this guy and asked him to come over so he could meet me. But this "friend" never returned the phone call. This was a long time ago. Now all of a sudden my husband accidentially forwarded an email to him, and all of a sudden this guy calls thinking nothing ever happened, with no explanation of anything and said they are going to get together to "hash things out"... what is there to hash out besides the fact he disrespected me and my husband and hasn't said a word in all this time? I'm mad as hell because my husband sucked right into it without even asking why he never called or never sent an email or nothing... I feel like my husband is getting used and that this person is not a true friend, but my husband doesn't want to think that. It was specifically said that "the wife" is NOT allowed to be around. Not a good way to make someone want to meet him in my book. What would u do or say now?

Ok so in the stage version of fiddler on the roof there is an optional part of "the fiddler" who is a silent part who has no words or has no part of singing in anything.... just little danceing. Now this question is mainly for those of you who are in theatre..... Seeing as how this is a high school production and the music will be done in Orc-extra... Now seeing as how the part of the fiddler is "optional" that would have to mean that the part of the fiddle playing is in the orc-extra... So since the fiddle is allready playing in the music the character of the fiddler wouldn't actually have to play the fiddle would he? he would only have to appear to play it...... right????

An 'artistic' photo from elton johns collection was seized from a display at the baltic gallary in Gateshead.

It showed a very young girl in an explicit pose.

After a month, it seems the police are unable to say whether it is illegal or not - if the authorities can't tell, then how is anyone else supposed to?

(FWIW: I think it is clearly objectionable - a child so young cannot have given meaningful consent to have such a photo taken and published globally - and everyone involved should be punished to the fullest extent of the law)

Buying through a Dealership, is there really a difference between buying used and buying new?

2007-10-15 01:57:44 · 9 answers · asked by Anonymous in Buying & Selling

This might seems like a dumb question, but I have always been curious about it. Say you own shares in Acme Tech. The shares plunge from $50 to $30 and news reports do not look good. If you decide to sell, what does that mean? There is someone willing to buy the stock at 30 or 30 was the last price from the latest sale?
If someone has put in a bid for 1,000 shares at 30, does that set the price? But what if several of us decide to sell 30,000 shares at once. How does this work? We might think we are going to get 30, but we only get 10 if we sell at market prices.
I heard in some cases, especially for small numbers of shares, the actual brokerage house will buy the shares and lump them together with other shares or something like that.
I would imagine many investors would be interested in the actual details of how this works......what is the best way to get rid of a stock that is declining and how does this work?
