I am doing a research project at school about if

1) Americans feel apathetic about the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. If you're an American, does it interest you?
2) For people who don't think about it that much, why?
3) Do you have any close friends or relatives serving in either war?

Please focus only on the above rather than if you are opposed to the war or not. Also please do not rant about disliking Americans or our president, there are other forums for that. I chose this topic SIMPLY because it seems to me that rarely does anyone ever seem to talk about the wars in day to day conversation, even though it's all over the news.

I am at a boarding school with no internet access and have been able to stay with a friend on the last 2 Friday nights. Let's thank her and her family for this rather EXTREME generosity as I would have trouble researching my project without it.

Thank you and good day.

reading the clip which follows have they now seen they were wrong to be so heartless? :-

News Item this a.m: -

California assesses fires damage

'Four burned bodies found in the path of California's fierce wildfires raised the death toll to at least 12 people, even as firefighters won the upper hand and officials turned on Friday toward assessing the damage.
Though more than 20 fires raged across Southern California into a sixth day, some 8,000 firefighters had brought most of them under control and no more homes were in imminent danger.
Some lost everything to the flames but most of the 500,000 people forced to flee in California's largest evacuation were expected to be back in their homes by the weekend.'

Remembering that not all people in that area are rich and so could not afford to move away it is so easy to be so resentful you don't see the overall picture isn't it?

Or is that normal in Islam? After all the Taliban encouraged marrying off girls as young as 8,so perhaps child molestation is the norm in Islam.

Can you just tell me the basics?
Like..what is it?
How long does it take?
What happens after?
Do you have to stay where ever it is?

My boyfriend is looking into it and it really wants to know how i feel about it...he wants to join the national guard or something so he can figure out what to do with his life.

I have to spend this year away from him because of school and I was wondering if he did this if it would take him away from me for a while?

The training site is 30 miles away from me...just FYI

I spent my freshman year at a small regional Catholic University and enjoyed myself for the most part, but since it didn't have any name recognition I transferred to a well known national private research university for my sophomore year (which I am currently hating). I have no friends here and absolutely no sign of a social life. Thing is this school has a great name which is the most important thing to me. I would only consider transferring again if I was admitted to a school with an equal or better name. If that happens should I transfer again? I'm thinking a school in the northeast, where I'm from. Is this advisible? I mean I seriously don't have one friend here or even someone to consistently talk to even though I've made the effort. So should I transfer college for second time? Thanks in advance.

p.s.- would it matter to a chool i was trying to get into that i had already attended two other colleges?

Can you make 4 cars line up and in a horizontal line on a four lane u.s . express way
you cant exceed the speed limit of 55 mph and and must all end doing a speed limit of 55 mph

all cars start out driving in a vertical line doing the speed of 45 mph with 50 ft between cars, they must end doing a speed of 55 mph

the minnimum speed thay can do is 45 mph and the max they can do is 55 i need to know the exact time each car will act and exactly what the action will be

you must obey the speed limit and THE LAW (COPS) ARE FOLLOWING BEHIND YOU AND INFRONT OF YOU AS TO MAKE SURE YOU ARE FOLLOWING THE MINIMUM AND MAXIMUM SPEED LIMIT , there is no trafic and all cars are brand new and have the same reaction time , you must be going at least 50 mph in the two left lanes

you must explain any formulas u use and your method of arriving at this answer

stars for all legitimate(reall attempts) answers ten points for the most logical(in my opinion)

We've all heard about people having guts or balls,but do you really know the difference between them? In an effort to keep you informed, the definition for each is listed below.

GUTS - is arriving home late after a night out with the guys, being met by your wife with a broom, and having the guts to ask, "Are you still cleaning, or are you flying somewhere?"

BALLS - is coming home late after a night out with the guys, smelling of perfume and beer, lipstick on your collar, slapping your wife on the butt and saying, "You're next!"

I hope this clears up any confusion.

Medically speaking, there is no difference in the outcome since both ultimately result in death.

I know she was not prosecuted for it. Maybe because of her position. Please make this clear to me, sources if you have them!

We moved into this rental property (house) September 1, 2007. I had to hound the realtor who represents the owner of the home to do an official walk-thru on September 17. During the walk-thru we noted all the issues with the house. To date nearly nothing has been repaired. I have leaks throughout the house, fusebox needs to be replaced, my dryer is not getting enough power to heat, the outlets on the kitchen do not work. Electricians came to do estimates and are suppose to fix things Saturday. A plumber came out today to check pipes and has the get the order approved b4 he starts repairs b/c it's more serious than he thought. What can I do to ensure speedy repair if it's not done by the end of this month?
