i'm not christian or atheist but i see so much hatred here tonight. couldn't we all try being a little more tolerant with each other? couldn't we please try to accept people and respect them for what they believe without harassing them and calling them stupid just because they differ from you? i enjoy coming here but i don't stay long when all i see is hatred.

A young woman said to her doctor, "You have to help me, I hurt all over."

"What do you mean?" said the doctor.

The woman touched her right knee with her index finger and yelled, "Ow, that hurts." Then she touched her left cheek and again yelled, "Ouch! That hurts, too." Then she touched her right earlobe. "Ow, even THAT hurts."

The doctor asked the woman, "Are you a natural blonde?"

"Why yes," she said.

"I thought so," said the doctor... "You have a sprained finger."

I know someone who fell at work & hurt their knee, The supervisor sent her to get x-rays and to be seen by a Dr. that works for their company Dr. put her on light duty with some restrictions for three days. Then a day later she got suspended for smoking next to company property(they have a non-smoking policy), Everyone smokes in thier cars or tries not to be seen. It sounds like she got suspended for a bogus reason because they put her on light duty and workmans comp. has to pay for her bills. Plus it is a male dominated workplace! Is this grounds for a lawsuite or what should She do? Any advise would be highly appreaciated!

not the BRA CLASP in the back,
but the 2 straps that go over your shoulder to connect the front of the bra to the back.
I just got a new bra from victoria's secret, but the clasps are SO WEIRDLY DESIGNED. it's not the usual ---- - but more like -- -- so the metal clasp is put on ANGLED, you don't just put it through the hole. am i even making sense here? it's pretty difficult to explain..

this is how original bra strap clasps looks like:
http://www.commerce.com.tw/datas/a/9/c/E0012952/showroom/2/2-11309179733.jpg

but the one i got has a clasp that is empty in the middle, looks kinda like bended antennas like this >> '---- ----'


so my point is, why does VS make such stupid bra straps that keep falling off? and how can i keep it from coming off loose? it's pretty embarrasing when a bra strap flings off!

If your an atheist, Don't you spend a lot of your energy on something that doesn't exist to you. I mean i don't see or hear many people wasting time arguing about santa or the easter bunny etc etc. So why do you use so much of your energy denying this non existent god?

When doctors swear the Hippocratic oath, they pledge to do all in their power to help their patients. But medical care is extremely expensive today, and hospitals run on money, not ideals.

Balancing the ideals with financial reality is an ongoing struggle for medical professionals, and the number of illegal immigrants seeking medical treatment they can't afford exemplifies the problem."We are legally, and morally required to give emergency medical treatment to anyone who comes in needing it," said Robbie Nicol, director of development and community relations at the Yavapai Regional Medical Center. "It's a moral certainty that we must help those in need, but the fact remains it takes a lot of money to run a hospital."

The federal Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act requires hospitals to treat emergency patients, regardless of the patient's status or ability to pay. This complicates the financial situation with illegal immigrant patients who cannot pay for their treatment.

A government program exists to help reimburse hospitals for some of the costs that they incur in treating illegal immigrants who are unable to pay: Section 1011 of the Medicare Modernization Act of 2003. The section distributes $250 million among hospitals across the county, allocating more money to states with higher rates of illegal immigration.

According to data from the 2007 State Allocations for Section 1011 of the Medicare Modernization Act, an estimated 7 million unauthorized residents live in the United States, and 283,000 in Arizona alone.

Of the $250 million that Section 1011 distributes nationwide, Arizona receives more than $6.7 million based on its percentage of undocumented aliens, and about $37.8 million based on number of state illegal alien arrests, for a total of $44.5 million.

The Section 1011 money Arizona receives helps hospitals relieve some of the financial burden of treating illegal immigrants, but the amounts they receive are "a drop in the bucket" compared to the losses local hospitals take each year, Nicol said.

In one year, YRMC treated approximately 2,135 people who fall under the 1011 payment provisions. That number does not include undocumented immigrants who paid cash or whose employers paid for them. YRMC estimates the cost for those medical bills exceeds $2.4 million.

My ancestors worked hard to make the world a better place. You try moving boulders with dinosaurs all day. No gratitude! Dig a big hole in Arizona and no one remembers.
What would your ancestors do being so grieved?

I own a small taxicab business in West Des Moines, Iowa. The actual city of Des Moines will not permit me to pick up my customers there. ( two seperate cities) Des Moines itself only has one cab company ( disguised as 2 as to give the false perception of competition.) Unfortunatly Des Moines is where all the big hotels are located as well as the Airport & Greyhound. The city has a rediculous amount of rules and regulations pertaining to taxicabs. (over 35 pages) Starting with: I need to own at least 10 cabs, each cab has to be insured for 1.5 million each. (by the way New York; taxicab capitol of the world only requires $80,000 insurance policy per cab) I have to operate a 24/7 staffed facility. The local TV Media did a story on my situation. When they asked a few of the city council members why?, they actually said on film "Why shouldn't we protect our cab company from any competition?" Gary Fox, the traffic control member said on film " We have designed this to keep fly by night cab companies out of Des Moines." Well, I'm not a fly by night cab company!! Over 90% of my business comes from the telephone, 24 hours a day/ seven days a week. My cabs are new and my drivers and myself are english speaking/ hard working Americans. Is there any hope? I have done the research, many have stood infront of city council. None have tried fighting the city council in a court room. Des Moines has not had another taxicab company since the 1940's!!!!!!!!!!! PLEASE HELP! This is an unconstitutional infringement of economic liberty, the right for individuals to earn an honest living without arbitrary government interference! Thanks, Aaron Dowell

could someone educate me on this. I have two rental property and one extremely small vending machine business.
I need a truck to do the run around, ie fixing problem for tenants and refill vending machines.
the allowance for mileage just can't add up! Can I buy or lease the truck/van under my registered business name and write off the payments? As I also have a job and I pay lots of tax. Can't I not get my money back for my car payments?
Thanks alot in advance for your business sound answers!

I've really messed up this time.. I'm the type of idiot that pushes people away, and I pushed my boyfriend of a year and a half away for the last time. I came to college and told him i needed to find myself and that I needed a break (I was afraid of letting him love me) and then we tried again, but now he said he needs time to think and that he loves me but doesn't want to be with me. Nothing makes sense without him. He's the type of guy who listens to every word, and helps me no matter what. He's so amazing, and I need him in my life. I don't think I can do it without him. If anyone knows of a song, or a good way to show him how I feel.. or any advice at all, I would really appreciate it.

I have been thinking about this for awhile now and figured I would ask you all. If one believes the bible to be fallible, how can God judge one on a distorted and incorrect book. Fallibility would mean we would not know which parts were true and which parts were tampered with. Because of this, how could God judge us on the salvation doctrine if that too might be tampered with? I would love to get some answers on this one, Thanks!
