This is a question for people who live in England, obviously. ;-)
Which do you like better? How would you describe your location to somebody from another country?

Oh, and does it annoy you when there is a drop-down lst of countries, and you don't know whether it will say "England" or "United Kingdom"? It annoys me. :P

Two statements on the nature of God. Neither is superior. Which do you prefer?
"Every Living thing is part of the Mind of God"
"God is the sum total of every living thing."
They might seem to mean the same, but there are subtle differences.

Hypothetical situation. If a girl came to your church one night, and looked in need of spiritual help, but was inappropriately dressed, how would you react, and how do think your priest/pastor/imam/rabbi etc. should react. Would you turn her away, or let her stay?

I was once outside a bar in Japan just after a brawl, and a Swedish man asked me what that was over, and I said probably a woman, and he answered, "Oh, in Sweden, we never fight over women..."
I got to thinking that he made real sense, because if a woman wants to go with another guy, that's her choice, yes? and no amount of violence is probably ever going to change anything... Do you think he was speaking true?

I just read that Sand Creek Country Club Homes are going to be paying over $7,000 in Property Taxes!!! My question is, why aren't these rich folk getting an attorney to fly directly to washington DC and try to pass some kind of law that would make it illegal for states to charge outrageous taxes to home and business owners and others? If you are waiting for local corupt politicians you will be waiting forever. TO ACTION PEOPLE!!! Don't let them do this to you!!!

I personally don't agree, but would like to know what you think.

Sex education lessons should be given to children as young as five in an attempt to combat rising levels of teen pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections, a senior public health doctor has said.

Dr Charles Saunders warned that schools were leaving the "safe sex message" so late that many youngsters were being exposed to unnecessary risks.

He said that by the time they were 12, many children were "already experimenting".

Dr Saunders, the chairman of the British Medical Association's consultants' committee in Scotland, also suggested that secondary schools should hand out contraception to older children.

Ralph Waldo Emerson [19th century] writes of the mild nature of the Anglican Church, which in my experience is very present today. There is a diversity of opinion in various matters; some might say too much diversity, but at least no one is told what to think.
But what did the Anglican Church do with previous dissenters, such as the Quakers? And when did it start to get its mild reputation?

I've got Paint Shop Pro 9, I've got a brand new Wacom Intuos3 and I grew up drawing comics so I've got all the ingredients needed to make a good drawing/graphic...

My problem is that when I'm drawing my normal charactors on the digital screen, they seem pixelated instead of a smooth "pen like" appearance.

I'm trying to get that smooth natural pen like look (without having to use other programs like Corel Painter 10 or Photoshop)... so are there any other digital artists like me who know how to achieve this look? Thanks a million for your input!

My settings are: (Round) Size:2 Hardness: 100 Step:1 Density & Thickness: 100 (Paint Shop Pro 9)

Firstly I wish to appreciate this platform for sharing our knowledge and ideas with people arround the world. Thanks a lot for your time, effort and wishes!

We all know in Physics that according to law of attraction opposites attract, but similar poles repel. This applies to boy-girl attraction due to opposite sexes, but not fully as boy-boy and girl-girl attraction is also there! Moreover, relationship works well with like-minded people and is very difficult to carry over if two people have different belief systems. Now I fail to understand if similar poles repel each other, then how come similarity works in relationships?

If any one can solve this dileema for me and have some clarifications, then I will be very grateful to you. Any other view point (scientific / logical / practical / social) to explain this phenomenon is most welcome!
