Do not have the same strict religious beliefs? I ask this because I have this sister who is older who never has really anything kind to say to us in the family. She is only seems to be happy around her strict religious friends. She can be so cold to us and have the harshest remarks made at us. The thing is it is my personality to be friendly to everyone regardless of their beliefs. My sister had tried to get all of us in the family to follow her line of thinking but we all have our own path in life to follow and we will not follow hers just because she wants us too. Since then she has been so mean and cold. Everyone in the family gets along great with one another and we do not judge each other on who we are because this is a free country and we are free to find our own path. My sister has always been kind of cruel but it has gotten worse the more religious she has gotten. Is it a control issue with her? No I am not cruel to her, it is not in my personality to be mean, to shy.

Supposedly it is a law here in Arizona that you are not allowed to remove a saguaro cactus from your own property! so what do you do when that saguaro damages your property + more? Who pays for the damages and can we fight this stupid law? We called the police but they just said to take lots of pictures and call insurance.
The Giant cactus is still laying on my family’s front yard. We can’t afford to have it removed. Shouldn’t the City remove it?
Here a few pictures that we took of the fallen Saguaro if you want to see them

I have a pocket PC with a USB charger that connects to the 220v wall plug. It gives 5 volts and 1 amp.

Then my brother lost his Motorola and gave me his charger. It's also USB, also 5 volts, but only 0.55 amps.

It would be convenient if I could have one more in use for the PDA. But... shall I try it? Is it safe?

Thanks in advance!

I'm 42 married with 2 kids. I have $1.5M term life purchased through an irrevocable trust and my wife has $500,000 of term. We have no mortage, car payments and college savings are basically taken care of. We have high level of current income and both plan on retiring around age 50 to 55. Does a $1M whole life policy make sense for me?

I am not going to accuse him of being paid to take on a brief. But to my mind there are remarkable similarities in his presentation of the case against man made global warming to that of a very talented lawyer defending someone who 'is as guilty as a puppy on a carpet beside a pile of poo' (Blackadder - British TV comedy)

Any comments - good natured please as Mr Jello always is.

My fiancé is going through a lot of stress right now. He is self employed, and is not making near the amount of money that he used to. There isn't enough money to pay all the bills! I have a job also, I work 5 nights a week. I do all that, plus I take care of ALL the household duties. He is moody, bitchy, and just plain miserable to be around. I told him not to take all his frustration out on me and he said, "Well I have to take it out on you, because I don't have anyone else to take it out on!". If I wanted to work my a*s off, and still come home and do EVERYTHING, I would be single.

First of all, I would Like to start by saying that i am 23 years old and my family doesnt have much of a history or hair loss, especially this early in life. I have recently noticed on the front top of my head, my hair seems to be thinning ever so slightly. I am recently out of college, and since high school I have been wearing hats alot. Is this the cause? If i stop wearing hats, will my hair get thicker in that area? In all honesty i havent really noticed much hair loss, and its bairly visible, I am kinda being paranoid. What else should i do, Do i really need to start Rogaine at 23 with no family balding?. Please any help will do.

Sweetest Day is this Friday, and I want to do something special for her. I am planning a romantic getaway, but I want it to be a complete surprise. So, I've decided it would be best if she's sleeping through the whole plane ride, and wakes up right when we arrive!

How much ether do I need to knock her out for a good five hours? Or is there something else I can give her? I want to be safe and all, but she has to be completely passed out. Thanks!

This question was asked by someone earlier, I would like to know what would constitute blasphemy? Who would determine if something was or was not?

"Will you support a Bill that would require blasphemy against GOD in movies to require an X rating ?
As for myself I find it worse than any porn material, a sin that can be forgiven, but in using GOD's name in vain one will not be held blameless so why is it permitted. For those that scream freedom of speech, there is still that freedom, restricted in a rating system just like porn, so why not support such a Bill ?

Going to the moon would have been a huge event! According to my dear friend and creation science colleague Dr. Em Adjineri, if it were true, NASA would have filmed it or at least taken pictures or even televised it. So why can't anybody produce these alleged pictures or film? Because we never went to the moon! That's why. There aren't even any mugs or ashtrays for sale in any of those souvenir stores, not to mention there aren't any of those fuzzy pet moon rocks on the market. If we really went, then I'm sure we would have seen some marketing evidence of it.

So Im in a dorm for the first time in my life and it seems like everytime that Im changing or something, my roommate stops what she is doing and starts up a conversation or just plain stares at me. It really creeps me out. When she is changing, I will roll over and look at the wall or whatever. Ive had to resort to changing in the bathroom, but its really starting to freak me out. Should I directly confront her about it?

deem themselves the rulers of all things acceptable? You know, like someone posts/does something in fun and then the 1 person thinks its not fun so they whine about it until they get their way.

Why do these people think their choice is right and the majority choice is wrong? And should we make a petition to be able to start b-slapping those people?

First thing to understand is: Prayer is NOT worship.

One more time: PRAYER.. ..IS.. ..NOT ... WORSHIP

Prayer is a "request". When we pray to those who have gone to heaven ahead of us, we are making a "request" of them. And what is that request? It is that THEY pray for US. Protestants do it all the time, but they limit themselves to making this request only of people still on earth. In this, the protestant view of the Church is very narrow. You see, Romans 8: 38-39 says: "neither death nor life... ...neither the present nor the future.. ..neither height nor depth, nor anything else.. ..will be able to separate us". The Family of God transcends death. We ALL LIVE IN CHRIST.

Hebrews 12: 22-24 says that as we approach God, Jesus and the angels, we also approach "the spirits of righteous men made perfect". In other words, THE SAINTS

During this morning's press conference, president Bush mentined that he had declaired that he "does not believe that Iran wants to build a nuclear bomb" when he met with Vladimir Putin in Austrailia. Yet when NBC's David Gregory tried to ask Bush about the issue during the conference, specifically a radio broadcast in which Syria proclaimed that Iran was in the process of building a nuclear weapon, the president refused to comment on this. When the issue was brought up again later on in the conference, the president then proclaimed that he did not believe that Iran has the capacity to build a nuclear bomb, although he was well aware that they want to. Now I may be wrong, but the last time the president "did not believe that (a group) had the capacity to do something" and subsequently decided to act only in light of his own beliefs, it resulted in the largest terrorist attack in the history of the United States.

The fact that Colbert can make such waves by mocking the process in a fake bid for the office really shows what America thinks of politicians. While he probably isn’t that serious, it is sad that so many people prefer the prankster to the politicians.
What are the odds that any of the ‘real’ candidates will learn anything by this?

I wanted to know from previous experience from anyone if a pregnancy occured if you failed to take the pills at at the exact same time each day. I have missed taking my pills by a few mins or so but within the say hour. For example, my meds are due at 12:30pm every day. Sometimes I forget and take them at 12:45, 12:40, etc. Does this decrease the effectiveness or does it apply to when you miss the pill by a few hours or days? The name of my pill is Ortho-Novum 7/7/7?
