I'm tired of reading really good answers and every single one of the answers having thumbs down. Most of them are actually great. Do people just give thumbs down because they can? Why do you think so many great answers have thumbs up (but a few thumbs down)?

Out of curiousity are the two related or similar? I know that each has a different founder, but am curious to what their beliefs are and why they seem so secretive. I believe Kirsty Alley, John Travolta, and Tom Cruise are apart of Christian Science. Any clarifications?

Here are the requirements:

Lower crime area
Walkable town - (Lots of restaurants, bars and shops within walking distance)
Young professional, students, couples....etc..
Relatively inexpensive rent/leases (around $800 per month or less)
Pet friendly areas (perhaps with dog parks)
Close to Parks and great downtown city views (Maybe even close to the lake??)

Hopefully I'm not limiting myself here by narrowing down the places I want to live. It's just that I'm looking for as many of these things as possible.

Thank you very much for your time.

I don't know much about cars or car repair. I just thought I'd ask this quick question because my husband called me from work claiming that one of his co-workers (who he claims knows about car repair) said that we need a new head gasket and that it's so expensive that we'd be better off buying a new car instead.

I'm just wondering if it really is THAT expensive. My husband has been itching for a new car, so I'm suspicious that he's pulling my leg to convince me to let him bounce on over to the nearest dealership.

Since I'm not too bright when it comes to cars, I'm not even sure if a head gasket could be the problem. We have oil leaks and a coolant leak (that comes and goes). Not much information, but that's all I know.

What do you think?

Please forgive my ignorance.

Lead paint just keeps coming into our country on toys and now Aqua Dots loaded with date rape drug. I know children shouldn't be putting things like that in their mouths but they're not supposed to be laced with drugs either. Maybe China would like to see more population control in America.

I have a user in my division with an MS word problem I've never encountered.

They have a 350ish page document with about 1200 internal links (linked to bookmarks).

When you click on a link for the first time, it brings you where you should go. And the back button returns you to where you were BEFORE you clicked.

However, after the initial click (whichever link is clicked first), none of the other links function this way. When you click the links, it brings you to the proper location in the document but pressing the BACK button returns you to the first link you clicked when the document was opened.

Why would this happen and how can I fix it? After each link pushed, he wants to go back to where he pressed the link if he clicks BACK.

I can't find the law in the US tax code that says we have to pay income tax. I believe it's blatently Unconstitutional and that the government has been robbing us of our money for yours. Am I right? Also, I've heard that this money they collect from income tax just goes to pay off the interest that comes with every dollar loaned to the government by the federal reserve. Is this how the money is being spent?

Alright, I just word today that I was promoted within my firm. This means more work, responsibility, and probably more travel.

The difference is now I don't make Overtime. My previous title gave me 12% on top of my base salary.

Once I got my promotion, it was announced that my raise is 8% with no added benefits (possibly a bigger bonus but my bonuses are extremely small anyway).

So basically with all of the extra work I have, I will be making 4% less than before.

In my opinion, my company is pretty cheap but do I have leg to stand on to go back to my boss and at least ask for a raise so I'm not taking a step back?

OR - is this very typical and I should just move on.

Any advice on how to approach this would be helpful.

Thanks.

Is it true that if you take Midol with Diet Coke that it can actually help your cramps go away better than just the Midol alone? I heard this myth a while ago and I'm just wondering. Are there any variations on this? It seems too good to be true, and you know what they say about things like that! If anyone can give me proof, details, variations, etc. that would be best. I'm just wondering. Thnx!!!

Here is a couple of graphs from NOAA that show that that the Earth's warming tracks almost EXACTLY to the solar activity.

This graph shows land temperatures track solar cycle length almost point to point.

and this chart shows that the sea surface temperatures track sunspots.
http://www.oar.noaa.gov/spotlite/archive/images/sunclimate_3b.gif

While at the same time CO2 and other green house gasses are increasing exponentially and the temperatures haven't been any warmer since 1998! If man made green house gases were the cause for global warming, how come we aren't getting warmer each and every year?

Isn’t this very strong evidence that it is the sun that causes warming and not man?

In studying HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE medical scientist admit they do not know 90% to 95% of the time what causes it. Why don't the govt. furnish equip. so other scientific studies could be just as positive as the BIG BANGERS who never have to admit they could be wrong?

does anyone else think the same about me too ? I'm 5 ft 4" 120 lbs and even though I know I don't need to lose weight but tone up, I've been trying to lose 10 lbs since like 30 weeks back. I thought I had more than enough time to lose it and I know I did have ALOT of time, but now i'm getting married next week and I haven't lost a single pound. I am sick of my endless procrastination. I'm really stressed out because of this. I don't know what to do. I wanted to look great on my wedding day so bad, but I couldn't do it. I knew what to do and how to do, I even started out like a dozen times, just never got around to actually sticking to what I planned for more than a day.
