I feel like Im an enemy in my house. I cant think of one day When i got along with someone in my house. I love them all so much...But all we do is yell & fight. My Parents tend to tell me that I can always do better. I understand their trying to push me to acomplish things. But i get the feeling like i'm NEVER going to be good enough. My sister can sing, dance, is pretty, and she's one of the top kids in he grade. Well on her way to an ivy leage. My Brother is an outstanding athlete. He plays Travel soccer (around the country) and Can also sing and dance. I feel like I should be like them. Like i'm always pushed aside...and Not important.
To deal with this...I yell! Please don'ttell me I need to tlk to my parents about my feelings...Ive tried. I need to know how I can fight this feeling MYSELF. How I can change the way I look at things. (keep in mind, i'm 13 and the youngest, if that helps)

By normal use I mean playing games on normal settings, work with office and dreamweaver, do some programming and some photo/maybe video editing. Not multi tasking that much.

Core 2 duo 2.0Ghz
2GB 667mhz ram
Geforce 8600m gt 256mb dedicated memory
250GB HDD(5400rpm)
15,4'' Display

I'm mostly concerned about the graphic. These are the specs and I can't upgrade them while purchasing it anymore.
The games I'm planning on running would be mostly 'The Sims 2', 'Counter Strike-Source' and 'Age of empires 3'

Scottish & English Armies
In the old days the English and Scottish armies used to fight by gathering their armies on top of the hills and at day break they would run down the hillside into the deep gorge below to fight.

One morning at dawn there was a fog (as thick as pea soup) and the two generals decided to refrain from fighting that day. Whilst the two armies were resting a voice, with a scottish accent came from within the dense fog.

"Any one scotsman can beat any 10 englishmen".

With this, the english general sent down 10 of his soldiers. There was a hell of a fight and NO ONE returned. An hour later, the same voice was heard.

"Any one scotsman can beat any 50 englishman".

With this the english general sent down 50 of his soldiers. The same thing, a terrible fight ensured and again NO ONE returned. An hour later the same voice.

"Any one scotsman can beat any 100 englishman".

Same same, down went 100 of the best. NO ONE returned. An hour later.

"Any one scotsman can beat any 1,000 englishman".

By this time, the english general had enough and was about to send down his elite soldiers, when he saw a lone englishman crawling up the hill. He was battered to a pulp. As he reached his general he said, "Don't send any more troops down, its a trap, THERES TWO OF THE BASTARDS".

In my bible (kjv) it says God SAID let there be light, and there was. It says he caused the earth to come up from the water. It says he created the birds plants, animals, etc etc.
But why does it give the recipe for man? One could assume he spoke all the other things into creation, but why did he need something else to make us? Why was earth so integral? Why did he breath life into man, instead of just speaking?

I know that she has been getting her winter coat and everything but she has really been getting a big bulge around her stomach. She has been spayed for almost 9 years now. She did have some thyroid problems last year, but she has been fine lately. Is there any possiblity she is pregnant? She is an indoor/outdoor cat so who knows what she could be getting into. Please give me your best answer. We are taking her to the vet soon. Thanks!

After I got out, it was harder to turn the wheel. I thought it was just a bunch of snow in the wheel well. It had a lot of snow, so I cleared it all out, but It's still hard to turn.

What did I do?

How Apollo’s speed was controlled for its safe landing of on lunar surface. As there is no atmosphere and hence can’t be landed like a chopper.
Again its take off speed is very low and should be decreases because of moon’s gravity until another rocket fired in opposite direction for thrust. And I notice from the video there was nothing left at bottom of Apollo for the next thrust. So why Apollo did not decelerate by the moon’s gravity after certain height.
And how did Apollo was accelerated after take off as acceleration is the rate of change of velocity which can only be possible in empty space by firing rocket from time to time.
A thrust of 3500 lbs was used for LM take off on lunar surface . How did the design engineers calculate the final design speed on the basis of 3500 lbs thrust and moon’s gravity at rendezvoused with CSM in lunar orbit. Or what was its final design speed at the rendezvoused with CSM in lunar orbit.

Am I the only one who finds it unsettling or at least odd that the powers that be removed a poem by an anonymous Marine about Christmas simply because it didn't contain a question? Or am I just being nekulturny because the question didn't adhere strictly to the rules of the road? I don't know about anyone else who may have seen it but it did indeed cause me pause. Please get back with responses if you want keeping in mind that the poem was about Christmas. treadhead.07

Look at how effective those signs are in the malls that ban guns. I'm thinking if that's so effective, I should do this and no one will break in? Is that a great idea or what?
