I've been at a job for 10 months now. Pretty steady person in my career. And lately it feels like everything I do is totally wrong. Maybe it's just me, but it doesn't seem like work should be a constant struggle. Anyone out there understand what I am talking about?

I'm on a limited income - as are most of my fellow residents - but they spend their monthly check really fast and always come to me for 'loans'... They hardly ever pay back the full amount that I give them, putting it on their 'tab' for the following month. I'm really getting tired of it... can someone suggest how I toughen up and say No?

Besides murdering innocent soldiers and each other, and although not shown they presumably rob, pillage, and commit other crimes, they also betray each other at every step. If it weren't for the supernatural plot elements these films would be nothing but butchery and thievery. Can anyone justify the presentation and glorification of these immoral behaviors? How does Disney do so?

This war in Iraq isn't going anywhere. It was a bad idea to get in. But now we have to deal with the mess on hand. The Iraqi Kurds seem like good people who can govern themselves. But an independent Kurdistan in Iraq seems to drive the Turks and Iranians crazy and could destabilize the area further. Should the US support independence for the Iraqi Kurds, or hope they stay in a national confederation?

I live in Los Angeles County and would love to stay close to my family after the recent loss of my mom. I am a junior level transfer student and was graced with admittance to both UC campuses at Irvine and at Davis for Winter(I start in 2 months).
I took the answer one Yahoo member provided me with (thank you!) and went to visit the campus at Davis. I have visited Irvine, but did not go on a campus tour and left with a bad vibe.

My major is definitely History...but I will probably double or triple major/minor in Political Science or International Relations or Italian or English.

I felt that UC Davis put on a better show than Irvine, but then again, I spent my visit at Irvine in the counseling office, trying to figure out my school situation and didn't see much of the campus.
I have to decide by the 31st.

Dining at UCI looks awful
Davis has no lights
I like the beach
I like people a lot
I like being busy
Parties are OK
I love being involved w/ school
I adapt easily
Irvine is safe

I'm not in it for sport, just casual recreation. Anyway I used my hubby's old 10 speed & it was one of those that you end up hunched over & your behind HURTS when you get off.

I'm looking into a simple cruiser......but what type seat is best so you don't want to die when you're done? The cruisers seem to keep your back straight when riding, I guess bc the handlebars are higher?

About 3 weeks ago, I started experiencing a lot of nausea. It occurs around the clock, on and off. I am currently breastfeeding my 4 month old daughter exclusively, no supplements, solids, etc.... I've also started experiencing a lot of bloating and painful abdominal gas about 4 days ago on top of the nausea. Unfortunately, yes, I have started my periods again. I've had 2 so far. (sob, sob, I wasn't one of the lucky ones to not start for awhile, lol). Last period was October 2nd, so doubt I could be pregnant, these signs usually wouldn't show this early. So, I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced this? I felt completely fine up until a few weeks ago, no nausea with let-down. Could it be all the extra hormones from menstruating on top of the hormones for lactation? Any advice would be wonderful. I'm tired of feeling sick all of the time. Thanks!

This is for people who have worked or are working on a cruise ship,
Was there a 'special' way you set out your resumes? or was there a template you used?
I have seen on those sites that you have to pay so they help you get a job, that they will help with specific resumes that cruise lines are after, is that true? are they after something specific or did you just use your plain old every day one to get your jobs?
If there is a specific way, would someone be able to help me out at all?

Thanks

There's this creepy guy and unfortunately we have something we need to discuss over the phone, stuff about legal papers, but I don't want him to find out my new phone number. I already had to change it. Is there a way to make my phone automatically hide my number? I have a Razr.

Or

Can I make it seem like I'm calling from one place but I'm really not there. Sort of like disguising an area code? Because I don't want him to know where I live. Or will my whereabouts show up on his phone bill? Ackkk.

I have suddenly become aware today that 50 years ago, we were never really truly aware of the wrongfulness of what is now unacceptable in our society ; racism, racial discrimination, the persecution of homosexuals, sexism, sexual discrimination, sexual implementation, etc.

I mean, 50 years ago, we were bigoted! And it was okay to bigoted! It was expected of you to be bigoted! Now, we frown and are ashamed upon our past behavior because we (or at least most of us) now know that it was wrong.

With that said, I wonder what it is that we are currently doing today, as a civilization that we will frown upon and/or be ashamed of 50 years later? I mean, what is it that you predict that we do today that we will deem to be wrong 50 years from now?
