When I try to End Task in Task Manager, I get the standard "You chose to end the nonresponsive program, Internet Explorer.
The Program is not responding.

Does anybody know an alternate (and safe) way to end the program?
Thanks.

Okay so I'm a type 1 diabetic and recently my doctor increased my insulin levels and most of the weight that i lose last year through exercise and dieting is starting to creep back on. I'm on a pretty low carb diet which is hard because low carb sometimes results in a low blood sugar. But i wanted to know, with regular exercise and this low carb diet, will i lose weight? Or am i just destined to be slightly chunky for the rest of my life. How does low carb work anyway? And i'm tired of people telling me to speak to a nutritionist and doctor, i have been calling both for about two week and both are apparently too busy to get back to me. I would really like some/ANY advice.

It used to be the $100 store, because I couldn't leave there without spending at least $100. But now, I'm spending over $300 every time.

I want to write a poem about Poseidon, the greek god, it doesn't have to rhyme, and it should have a stubborn tone.

Does anyone have a stanza, verse, or just a line to help me?

Would they try to communicate and be friends with us?
Make war with us?
Destroy us all?

I think they will destroy us all.

Would they have feelings such as humans do, so that they won't destroy us?

Would we ever destroy them? excluding self defence...

i am terrified of aliens.

When reading ratings of stock mutual funds in Forbes or Kiplinger's magazine, why is it a colum is never entered for certain funds for dividend yield?
The mutual fund types in particular I'm asking about are say equity income, balanced funds where a good portion is put into bonds and say a sector fund of large bank stocks. Especially now in the bank area where they have tumbled. If a bank still pays same dividend and the price has gone south a lot, the dividend yield would rise a great deal. So , why do these magazines not have a of dividend yield for Certain funds?

I've been hearing this cool song on the radio a lot lately. It's sung by a male singer and I guess it would fall under pop/folk rock.. The only lyrics I can make out are "too young...oh oh..too young...on your own." It's really bugging me not knowing what song it is!

My circle of friends is also very small so I have not met any intresting guy. I get the feeling that I am a very boring person . Every guy that I met is either a jerk or a total loser. Most of them see me as a good friend or a sister. I am not sure how to come out of this situation.

A lot of them are quick to "warn" me about my fate. It's hilarious, I'm no more scared of their scriptures than I am of the 2012 prediction of the world's end.

I need to look up a publication called "The Effect of Avoidance - Avoidance Conflict on Startle Magnitude," and find out WHEN, and WHERE it was published!!! (easy, right? That's all I need to know!)
The info is online somewhere, and I've been looking for it for HOURS, and I can't find exactly what I'm looking for.
The author's last name is Bachmann.

Can anyone help me out?? I'll be online for another hour or so.

Hello,
I'm really interested in becoming an officer in the US military after I graduate from college. From what I understand, college graduates are guaranteed officer rankings...Second Lt I believe...However, I'd have to apply to a military academy upon graduation. What I want to know is...are my information correct? How competitive are these academies? How long is my obligation to the military (when can I resign)?...and would anybody recommend this path?

Thanks!
