They have to represent the death of a father, the wanting to remember the father, and if possible to help me as I try and find a cure for the disease that killed him. Thanx

Kinda new to the whole diet thing. I know those foods are all healthier than a lot of stuff but are they bad for diets because of the amount of natural sugars?

I know there are going to be a LOT of strong moral/spiritual/personal opinions on this one...but I was kinda hoping there was someone on here who had participated and could give me some "real life experience" on the subject.

Here's the deal. I've always thought it would be a good idea. I'm 23 and I don't want kids. I am in good shape, have had a good education so far, etc. etc...basically, I meet all the pre-screening criteria. Also, I am at a point in my life where I could use a little financial help (what college student doesn't?). I know egg donation pays between $3000 - $5000 per donation cycle and I can donate as much as I want (like every 6 weeks) as long as everything goes ok. I also know that the routine you have to go through (the "harvesting" process, the fertility drugs, etc.) is pretty brutal. But I think I could handle doing it like twice a year or something if it meant I could finish school and live more comfortably. Can ANYONE offer some good advice on this?

I order 12 books from Amazon and the sellers want 12 feedbacks. I order from Ebay and literally get harassed with reminders from sellers if I don't send feedback. I get emails from Microsoft for my customer satisfaction on their help. Do we all have ego problems these days or what? I don't have time for all of this homework! What is this phenomenon all about? Should I just send out a huge mass email and tell everyone they did a good job, now leave me alone? How can we block requests for feedback? This is like expecting us to send thank you notes when we have already said thank you in person. Life is too busy these days for more than one thank you for the same thing!

I struggle with Excel. There has to to be a way to convert minutes to billable/decimal time. Can someone help me please?
Example: Say I work on a project for 18 minutes. I need to convert that to 'point' whatever hours to bill a client. I want to have a column with the billable hours (then I have the second column with a description of the work done). How do I do that?

Thanks in advance! I have tried to figure it out on my own with no luck!

My mum is 44, she didn't have her period for about 3 months. She finally started, then she got an ultra sound, they said her ovaries look fine, but when they looked inside her uterus with a ultra sound camera, they said it was inflamed & they couldn't diagnose it, they asked her to leave the hospital & the doctor will call. Also, her uterus is also swollen.

P.S. We live STRESSFUL lives, but this has never happened before, the types of cancer that has run in the family are Heart Canver, Lung Cancer, & Colon cancer.

PLEASE HELP

V#1 +V#2 = V#3

Where:
V#1 is my velocity
V#2 is the speed of light (from the flashlight)
V#3 is the combined speed of the light and my speeds


since velocity is cumulative (i.e. throwing a baseball out of your car, while your car is going 100 mph would mean the ball would be traveling at least 100 mph as it left your hand depending on how hard you threw it.) wouldn't the light be traveling just faster than the theoretical value we have determined as the speed of light?

I have this um... "thing" on my rear end, I think it's some kind of cyst, and it's growing directly on my tailbone. It's excruciatingly painful to sit on, and it's slightly inflamed as well.
I'm sort of too shy to tell my parents, and I DEFFINATELY don't want to have a doctor look at it. (Too modest.)

Do you have any information on this kind of skin abnormality?
If so, is there any way that I can treat it myself?

If you witness a theft or a murder or any kind of crime, what are the laws in the United States regarding your LEGAL obligation to report it.

Links to laws would be appreciated.

Remember, this is completely separate from the moral obligation, I am NOT asking about the MORAL obligation.
