She has never been this way until Thanksgiving when we saw lots of family and she was held a lot. Now I can't get anything done at my house because she cries the entire time until I pick her up. I don't really believe in cry it out, but she is 6 months old now and I don't know what to do. She sleeps great at night, btw and will take two naps a day, but when she is awake, she wants all of my attention. Thanks in advance.

Optimus Prime and Megatron in Transformers: Animated have little girl legs

you can't use the 'big eyes in anime' comeback cuz donald duck and Garfield have big eyes. spikey hair, japanese ppl have spiky hair, and many of them dye their hair pink or green.

long story short, anime is STYLIZED. cartoons are super ugly.

This group of four seem bent on fighting the rest of humanity in an effort to dominate our world at home and all other humans based on their superstituious beliefs, fantasy like fears, general phobias and elitist doctrines. It is amazing to me that so many of the military veterans do not believe in the America concept of Democracy, the Universal concept of the human being or the decency codes of average and ordinary people. This group of four fanatics actual seem to think that only they posses the insight and wisdom to know both which way the wind is blowing and whose butt should be kissed for continued surplus's of the peoples money and other benefits.
You are sucking up to Bush because he feeds your need for belonging while acting like individuals.
I think that your strident loyality to a group cause which has pirate like goals and mouse like intellengence is not only bankrupt at birth but a refuge of scoundrels and parasites.
Go back to shadows where you and Bush jr belong. Go!

Because a lot of people are saying that you can't condemn a movie w/o watching it... But its based on a book. So, Have you read the books?

FYI: I have read all three books, AND I am a pretty good Christian. I don't need lecturing about how bad it is, I know. But to be honest, the first book isn't really that bad. I'll assume that the first movie is pretty good and fun, so that kids will like it and they will go to see the second and third movie, which are very bad.

So, have you read it or even heard of the book?

Obviously it won't be Conservatives that complain about the use of the word Christmas in schools or advertisements, or anywhere else. I was just curious how many liberals on here were offended by the word Christmas.

"The major reason people get offended is from hearing the truth."

personally, i don't agree. the "truth" doesn't bother me; it's lies represented as truth that makes me angry. what about you guys?

I am a little confused on how I should start this problem. I assume you use integrals but I don't know how. The problem is,
The velocity of a moving object at time t is given by v(t) = e^t/((e^t) +1) Find the position s(t) at time if s(0) = 0.

s(t) = ?

My brothers fiance is 38 weeks pregnant, due to have their first baby (a boy) on 17th December.

She is 26 years old but incredibly immature, selfish and unpleasant as a person. She has basically alienated my brother from the rest of our family. She makes HUGE demands on my brother. For example she has made them get a houseful of pets which she doesn't take care of - barely pays attention to them, and makes my brother do all of the work. She then decided she wanted a baby (my family suspect as a way of holding on to my brother) and got pregnant right away. I fear they have unrealistic notions about it. They don't have much money and my brother already works all the hours God sends and then has to come home and do ALL of the household chores, shop, make food... care for the pets etc.

I just feel uneasy about the impending arrival of this baby. I am not sure I want my nephew to be born in to something like this. Yet.... there is nothing I can do :(
Any advice?
