I was in college today and was in my social science class. I was in a group of about 12 guys and they were having a discussion about breast's. I was asked if i was a breast guy, to which i replied - 'nah, im gay'! I was kinda shocked by their reactions. none of them minded at all and one guy even replied 'oh, thats cool!'.

I am openly gay and have, since starting college, never suffered any homophobia at all. I was therefore wondering - who else thinks that by the time my generation (late teens) are older, there will be hardly no homophobia at all?

This is my expirience from the UK, so I dont know what things are like in the US or elsewhere.

I rent the first floor of a house that has been converted into apts. The Saturday before last, our landlord had the septic tank pumped or adjusted in same way. Upon doing so, the gases filled up the basement. The comp. who did the work said they would dissipate within a day. Instead, it started to get worse. The smell is now filling up our apt. We told the landlord about it and he sent over his fix-it man (not from the sewer comp) and he dumped bleach down the great and tried a new cap. The smell disappeared for about half a day and today it's as bad--at times worse--as usual. The guy came over and dumped more bleach and the landlord said the company would come Friday since tomorrow is a holiday.
So I want to know--just how dangerous are these gases? What are our rights? Should we go stay in a hotel? (we have three pets so that's a problem)
PS It's not a fecal smell..it's more like a musty, dirty smell--kinda like cow manure.

When everything they do contradicts this, they even have a repetetive prayer to Mary. My question to you Catholics is what stops you from praying to Jesus our savior and mediator ? (honest question) Be blessed

Working for a very large mining Co, I know that all mining Co's just want to rip everything out of the ground and not value add in any way in Australia. Everyone knows we can't compete on finished product but if all bauxite, iron ore, nickle ore etc was just value added to steel, aluminium etc, Our problem wouldn't be unemployment but employment and that's the sign of a booming economy. BHP is trying to find a way out of value adding at the Olympic Dam project and we only hear of the SA Gov't opposing them. Where's JH? China's long term plans are finished product, so we should be taking advantage of that and working with Chinese companies to establish steel mills, aluminium smelters etc. We have proven that we can be more than competitive in this area, so why hasnt either party done something about it. We would also be ensuring that these processes are done with much less impact on the environment.

I am a former Catholic. I practiced for 27 years and decided that it no longer made sense to me but I digress. When you speak of Mary 'worship', do you ever listen to what a Catholic has to say? OK, here's a good way to put it: Are you praying to a dead friend or relative if you speak with them at night or at their grave? No. Good. We're together so far. When a Catholic speaks to Mary, they are doing the exact same thing.
If you believe in heaven then why wouldn't someone who's ascended to heaven be able to listen to you? To maybe get God's ear a little more? All of this sniping against the Catholics..... if you actually read answers, you'd probably understand where they're coming from. What if you didn't know they were Catholic but read the answer in a non-biased situation? It sounds as logical as anything else anyone believes. All thoughts welcome. Namaste!

I have an assignment to complete 48 equations. Unfortunatly, I have only completed 34 and have 14 left. Please try to fingure it out and let me know if you come up with anything. The problems are below:

10=L.I.
3=P. into which A.G. was D.
76=T. that L. the B.P.
3=L.K. that L.T.M.
18.5=M.E. from the W.T.
1=R.A. in E.B.
66=B. of the B. (in the K.J.V.)
10=D. in a T.N. (including the A.C.)
7=D. with S.W.
30=S. over T.
8=D. a W. (in the B.S.)
15=M. on a D.M.C.
24=B.B. in a P.
3=S.Y.O. at the O.B.G.



Thank you so much and it can be anything from math to nursery rymes. Thank you again. If you don't know how to do it, here is how-

Ex.- 26=L. of the A.
This means 26= letters of the alphabet.
There are 26 letters in the alphabet. Each equation contains the initials of the words that will make the statement correct. To solve the equation, just supply the missing words.
If you still don't get it, here is another example-
24=H. in a D.
This means 24= hours in a day.

My Bff and I just graduated junior high and now go to different high schools. Things were okay. But then a week ago, she hadn't called me at all and when I saw her she totally had an attitude so i got really mad and waited for her to call me. But she didn't. So I wnated to knwo what was goign on so I called her and she said that she was mad cuz I didn't call her. We laughed it off. Just today, she got all mad at me for like no reason: because my mom "forced" me go hug her last weekend. We don't really hug each other much anwyays but she acted like I betrayed her or something because I didn't make the decision on my own. But she acts like its my responsibility to hold our friendship together. She thinks I'm going to always called her when we get in a fight, or I'm always going to make plans, or I'm always the one who's supposed to hug her first. But we've been BFF's since 3rd grade, so I really don't know what to do? Help?!?
P.S. She's kind of changed since she's went to high school.
