There has been discussion in the scientific world of being able to change the characteristics and traits of humans. Talk of being able to make us see infrared or echo-locate by taking genes from certain other organisms is very interesting. Also interesting is the prospect of parents being able to pick and choose the characteristics of their offspring (e.g. blond hair, musically talented, tall...).

What are some advantages and disadvantages to that? How would it change society?

Give references to the movie GATTACA if possible.

This woman was dating a man, starting dating another one, HID the first guy from the new one, only ditching him after her new guy found out she was with the other guy.

About 2/3 of the answers do not call that cheating.

I find this most disturbing. And it makes me wonder about how many people consider themselves never having cheated, because they were mad at their husband, or he said he didn't care, or he doesn't pay enough attention, or she was drunk.

Isn't dating two people, even in "not so serious" mode, and hiding them from each other, cheating??

And yes the guy in the question was cheating too - but nobody argued about him.

She is 6 1/2 months old and has a runny nose and a little bit of a cough. She doesnt have a fever though, so I wasn't sure if I needed to take her to the doctor. Is there something I can give her? She is eating fine and doesnt really act like she feels bad. It is just hard for her to nurse, though, because she has to breathe through her mouth. Thanks in advance.

This is my result.
You are a blue crayon.
Your world is colored in calm, understated, deep colors.
You are a loyal person, and the truest friend anyone could hope to find.
On the inside, you tend to be emotional and even a bit moody.
However, you know that people depend on you. So you put on a strong front.

Your color wheel opposite is orange. Orange people may be opinionated, but you feel they lack the depth to truly understand what they're saying.

Why do people run for president if they know there is no way they can win? For example, why would Ron Paul go through this long and expensive process. This is not a slam against him, I actually like a lot of what he has to say, but somewhere he must know the GOP will never nominate him. Is it just for principle? Hope for a VP run? I dont get it.

I'm 18. I really like this guy in my class. He is very cute & sweet. Every1 in my class says dat he is a flirt. Blah blah. I talked wid him on phone & got 2 know dat he is actually a very good person but is always misunderstood. He cares bout his family a lot which is so sweet! He told me about this girl who flirts wid him a lot & he was actually fed up of her. We became really good friends & he shares everything with me. He says that I'm loving & caring. He was quite sad since the past 2 weeks coz he was missing his family so I used to call him daily. But he wouldn't call me. We talk for hours & hours on phone. 2 days back I called him & he said that he can't talk now coz his cousin was with him. I hung up the phone. Then I got 2 know dat we had a very important photo session the next day..I called him again to inform him about dat & he said that he already knows about that..I got mad at him coz he didn't even bothered to inform me even when he keeps on referring me as his best friend

I have to admit, it does me. What happens to all the people who were not chosen by God? Aren't we all his creations?

I know that Jesus died to save us all and blah blah blah...but what was so DANG special about the Hebrews? Some covenant with an old dead guy? Well, does that automatically curse the rest of the world? If I were someone living in Abraham's time, and Abraham beat me to covenant making with God, I'd be pissed! Was there not enough covenant to go around?

Hmm...makes me glad for a restored gospel that does.

I would imagine it is because countries there are more equals rather than one country being rich and another very poor. Compare that to the US and Mexico.

Crazy idea: to fix US immigration, work WITH neighbors to pull them out of poverty and they won't want to come to the US for jobs anymore.

Can't say it doesn't work, because it's working all over the EU right now.

I need help with this roommate etiquette. There are three of us living together. I am hardly ever home (work and school full time). My roommates are always home and using the dishes and leaving them in the sink. I maybe use one bowl and a couple spoons and forks for each batch of dirty dishes that goes in the dishwasher. My roommate asked me to do the dishes because she and the other girl do them all the time. I said I don't mind helping them, but they are not my dirty dishes. Plus, I have done them before when they asked and I had done them last (when they weren't mine either). I don't understand why they expect me to do the dishes when they aren't my mess. Am I missing something or should I help out more to be "polite"? Oh, and they wouldn't have any dishes or silverware if it weren't for me anyways--all of the stuff is mine. Am I in the wrong for saying no? Thanks!

not care if it due to menopause, mental defect or illness. They have locked me in two rooms of MY house with beer, coke, fried chicken, my chihuahua, tv and computer. They intend to keep me here until Christmas morning. I think it is because they have parties to attend, cookies to bake and presents to wrap and I am in the way. I do have a credit card and a cell phone. If I pay for you a round trip ticket will fly to Florida and rescue me?
They did just promise me a bottle of Irish Creme and my Mr. Coffee and a chamber pot if I will stop singing Aretha Franklins version of Respect and the song Rescue me. They say I have made them allergic to Motown.

She's only ten months and her two bottom front teeth came in first - as is usual it seems - but then she got first one and then another canine tooth and now she looks like a cute little vampire!

My mum says my sister was the same and had to have her filed down (back in the early 70s) but is it still considered a problem? My friend said they might have to pull them, but surely that's wrong?!

I failed my driving test today and feel so rubbish about it.

I got 3 fatal mistakes (too close to parked cars, pulled out wrong time at a juntion, and in the wrong lane)

other than that I did O.K but second test will be different manouvers and different roads.

I've booked another test but I feel so down about it (got it 29th january) should I just keep going. or is there a stop point

We want to replace laminant tile with ceramic, and replace a vanity sink with pedistel sink. We aren't plumbers so curious if we should do sink or floor first. Also how difficult is the sink? I think we will leave the floor to experts.
