I'm looking for the best kitty litter for use in a household with 3 cats. Right now, I use Scoop Away, and have found it best out of all I have tried. I'm on a tight budget, and would love to find something cheaper that works as well, but I'm not willing to compromise performance for price. :)

I have 20 year old son who wanted a new car. And i realized that was a justified request because it took him way too much time to commute on bus and subway for school and he lost his job for being late. So i figured the cheapest new car would cost around $12,000 to $15,000. I decided that my 15 to 20 years saving that i put in my savings account would be used to let him buy a new car. So i wrote him a check for $14,000 and told him to buy a new car in one full payment. However to my shock he did not buy a new car.

He purchased a 1999 Lexus LS 400 for $13,800. That car has 120,000 miles on it. Its more than 8 years old. I expected him to buy somethin like 2008 toyota corolla. I angrily confronted him, but he said the 99 lexus is more comfortable, roomier & powerful than 08 corolla. But how can he ignore that it has 120,000 miles on it? Also, with V8 engine that requires premium gas, he will pay heavy price. I feel the car will break down & need repairs frequently. What do u think?

(a) S={1,-1}, * ordinary multiplication of integers
(b) S= the subset of Q consisting of all positive rationals that have a rational square roots, *=ordinary multiplication of rationals
(c) S=R\{0}, the set of all non-zero reals with a*b=|ab|

2. From examples above that are groups, which are abelian?

3. Consider groups Z(subscript n) with binary operation being addition modulo n. Write down operation tables for
(a) n=4,5
(b) n=6

4.Prove that if G=, then G=

5. Let G be a finite group, and let g,x∈ G
(a) prove that x and g^-1xg have the same order
(b) Let a,b∈G. Prove that ab and ba have the same order

I have some friends cover me and my costume with hairspray and they run out into the street and start a roman candle fight, once they have everyone attention i run out of the back alley and they hit me with a roman candle fire ball and set me completely on fire, that when i run down the street screaming " Oh my god i'm burning, god help me i'm dying" the looks on peoples faces are priceless, i've done this stunt a couple of times before but never on Halloween, so what do you think of my idea?


P.s. i wear tons of fire retardent cloths under my costume so i've never been hurt yet doing this stunt.

I hear (often in this forum) that feminists want "supremacy". I'd just like to know EXACTLY what is meant by that? How are feminists trying to gain supremacy? By what means? For what purpose? What is the evidence of this?
