Men and women both can sometimes be seen as sex objects, that is the inherent nature of sexuality is it not? But some (prostitutes, porn actors, exotic dancers) go out of their way to BECOME sex objects. Why do they do this? Is it to make money or are they driven by an inner urge of some kind?

I'm in 8th grade, and I'm not entirely sure what an exponential relationship is. In class, we're doing exponential growth and decay, so we have to identify if a specific problem describes an exponential relationship.

Could you give me an example with this problem?:

1a. y = 100 * 3^x

So how can you identify an exponential relationship? Does it mean if the problem includes exponents?

Thanks!

I recently joined the Navy, swore in and everything. A few days before I was talking to my recruiter and told him about parking tickets that were unpaid and he said that they would be fine if I just paid them before I shipped. So I tried to find every parking ticket I have, in Texas mind you (I now live in Colorado), and have found out that I had a speeding ticket that I did not know about and have a warrant out. I have talked to the municipal court and they said that it was not a big deal I just needed to pay it and the ticket just goes on my record. So I am now pay the ticket off. I am wondering now if the FBI background check will catch this and if anything will happen to get me such as getting kicked out of the Navy. I have heard it time and time again about the penalty for open tickets and know what can happen to you. Please can anyone help.

One day a blonde and a brunnette were walking in the park. The brunnette looks down and sees a dead bird."Aww,a dead bird!"Then the blonde looks up in the sky and says"Where?!"

A blonde and a brunnette were sisters and decided to start a farm together.They had $150.00 to buy a bull. The brunette went to the owner of the bull and bought it. It cost $149.99. While she was driving home she ran out of gas. She was next to a gas station that let people make telegraphs for1 cent."You only have enough for one word." said the manager."choose carefully". It didn't take her long." I want the word comfortable."she said. "Why?" asked the manager. "Well,my sister reads very slow. Com for da bull."

There was a magic cliff,that if you jump off of and say anything, you'll become it. A brunnette jumped off. "Eagle!" And she turned into an eagle. A red-head ran off and said "Sparrow!" And she turned into a sparrow. Then, a blonde ran up and tripped. "Crap!"She turned into crap.

Planning my Christmas dinner. I have a recipe that calls for chicken stock. What's the difference between that and chicken broth? If it just the salt then can I use no sodium broth? Thoughts?

So I moved my horse back to my regular barn this past week. The stable hand (the guy who feeds and lets the horses out) is a very nice hispanic fellow.

I was thinking a small gift might be a good thing for him for xmas. Practical reasoning here, he takes care of the horse, and I want her to get the best care.

I was thinking a pair of fleece gloves? Useful and not terribly expensive. Any other idea's?

I was also wondering if anyone has Spanish for the Horseperson information. What the names of the barn items are in Spanish? I speak some Spanish, but, not too much that would be helpful in a barn.

Thanks!

Once again I am that same african american high school student and i highly believ it is not because it at times over rides our vote and our choice for such an important position. I would very much appreciate it if you would share you opinion on this subject and your reasoning as to why you believe that.

i've heard this saying that says "little girls marry their fathers". As i see it, it means that if the father is always hitting or abusing the mother, then she will also be in an abusive relationship. or vice-versa. but what does it really mean???

Everyone's mother has said not to go outside in the winter without a coat because you will catch a cold. And definitely don't go outside if you are sweating or have wet hair.

But is this true or just a myth?

A cold is caused by a virus. It is not caused by the temperature. And you are not more likely to encounter that virus if you are outside without a coat.
