Does this mean Mankind HAS to end too? can't they just load up a rocket ship and go live on a new planet?

I, for one, would build a rocket ship (or a fleet of rocket ships) big enough to sustain a few thousand people (preferably mormons only), fly to another world and colonize it and then keep everybody else off it so we can live in peace and prosperity. no more persecution. no more crappy government.

*****
I look out, to the west
From the house we built ourselves
To the place where you have gone
Far away

I think of times, so sublime
And the children’s nursery rhymes
I wonder if I will feel that way again,
Someday

She will not turn to look at me
She only sees what she believes
My heart breaks with every step she takes
Please stay!
*****

I heard that having quicktime and windows media installed on the same computer will cause problems to your computer, that they both fight for control of your computer. I had to remove quicktime from my computer so windows media will work properly. Why does this occur? and how can I fix this so I can reinstall quicktime on my computer
which is a hp 64 processor with 1.0GB and windows xp and have it run with windows media.

Scenario: Medical tech inc. a public company w/ sales last yr over 700 mill., produces a wide variety of advanced med equipment, both stock items and custom equipment. They sell to both docs and hospitals.
By the end of 3rd quarter of 2007, it was clear to Ed Walters (chief oper. Officer) and Robin Smith (CFO) that the company was short of annual earnings target set by BOD. Ed and robin receive annual bonuses based on meeting that target. Although in recent yrs the bonuses averaged 40% of their total compensation, it was clear there would be no bonus this yr if business didn’t improve markedly in the 4th quarter. They devised the following strategy.
Ed sugguested they take unprecedented step of offering 25% discount on all products ordered in oct and nov for dec delivery. Robin agreed that would boost sales in 4th quarter. However, it would come at the expense of first quarter sales in 2008 and total sales for 2 quarters were likely to be unchanged. However, since their bonuses for this yr will be based on 2007 earnings, they decided to take the action.
Robin suggested another action, “increase production of our stock items in the 4th quarter. With the high priced production equipment, we have high fixed production costs. The more items we produce, the more of the fixed costs will be deferred in inventory.”
Ed agreed to get marketing working on sales promotion and Robin would update the production schedule to increase fourth quarter output. Ed concluded the discussion with the comment that, “this might be our best bonus ever!”

Discuss both ethical and accounting issues considering 1. since the bonuses are based on earnings what are the issues involved w/ implementing the discount, 2. what are the implications of the actions for the company’s long term success, 3. is robin correct in asserting that increasing the inventory will increase net income and why 4. are the actions proposed by Ed and Robin ethical or unethical and explain why?

My cat seems to always be licking plastic bags if he can see one. We've had five cats altogether in our family and he's the first one ever to lick plastic bags.

Is it a normal thing? Or is my cat just weird?

Or that the Holy Spirit (whatever that is) has "filled/touched their hearts"?

Are they delusional freaks or outright liars?

I'm making what I call EDC for dinner (easy delicious chicken) what should I make for a side? The chicken consists of italian chicken, provalone cheese, and bread crumbs. I don't want plain old rice. Also if it could transport easy that would be great as I'm taking some to my mother's for her dinner.
Thanks

I heard that you should not use bleach on dentures if they have metal in them, because it would turn the metal black. Is this true? Mostly I am wondering if I can use bleach without causing damage.
