How do I look at a BSc?
Quite Amazingly, I have been wondering about this for so long, like for years. Anyway, quite officialy, How do I ask you, what is Important about a Degree? Is University important, is where important, and if you want to apply for residence important? When you think the office you think that interviewer will be interested, is that possible?
for marriage proposals nobody will ever mind whether you are BSc or specialized in some subject if you are beautiful looking and the groom does not want you to work nowadays simple BSc has no meaning at all what you need is specialization in some subject as far as some profession is concerned. you need everything a good university a good college and city sometimes your family history as well as your track record and your surrounding is also important

Clinton screwed an intern (willing) and Bush the world (unwilling). Are they both criminal?
I say yes
It's funny you mention this because a while back I thought of the same concept... They both are criminals in a way, but what Bush did cannot be forgotten nor forgiven... What Clinton did, millions of people do all the time. Adultery is everywhere... It's not right, but people make mistakes! Screwing the world is discusting and I hope that somewhere in the future Bush will be punished and will suffer for what he did!

How did the group "Bowling for Soup", get its name?
Is "bowling for soup" a term used in bowling? Or is it a name that is sort of live an "inside joke" and doesn't mean anything, unless you know the background or it?
Rumor had it the band name was inspired by comedian Steve Martin's unwritten but scatalogically titled book, "Bowling For S**t," the BFS name actually has its genesis in the writings of Harvard International Affairs professor Robert D. Putnam, whose 1995 essay, "Bowling Alone," struck a chord (a C, it's said) in the singer/songwriter.

is there such a thing as probable causes?can they just through u in jail on hear say?
i know couple where he was accused of touching some girl. and they had no evidence or dna nothing. just his story and hers. but he does have a past. and hes lock up now.
You can be arrested if someone files a criminal complaint on you with a law enforcement officer. It is the police's duty to arrest you. Only after that will an investigation begin of the incident. \n\nIt is then up to the prosecuting attorney to decide if the case has sufficient evidence to win in court. (Notice I did not say IF THE DEFENDANT WAS INNOCENT.) \n\nHow long you can remain in custody varies from state to state, most of them its 6 months if still in custody. \nIf out on a bail bond, however, the state usually has about 9 months to complete the case with time excluded for various reasons. \n\nGenerally, however, if there is no actual crime committed I feel the police generally find that out and the charges are dismissed.

weed allergies?
i'm highly allergic to weeds i irrigate 15 acres for the cows, and my eyes swell bad i've tryed every allergy product on the market is there any organic solution available out there
I have bad allergies. Have you tried Zyrtec or Zyrtec D, or maybe Singular. My brother has asthma and Singular and Clariten helped the most. I don't know if that helped or not, but if you haven't taken those then try them. The only other advice I could give you is to go to the local allergist and get a test(where they prick you) and then start getting shots. Basically all the shots are is everything you are allergic to, that is so you can build up an "immunity" to them. The shots helped my brother and he no longer has major probs with asthma. Hope you feel better and find a solution. Good Luck,\n Chelsea

Am I spiritually strong or am I just fighting myself?
I consider myself spirtually strong, I've never really had a problem with many negative or significant encounters in my life due to my way of thinking. I always keep in mind that time will work out for me and this won't lasts forever and I persevere through hardships. I find it hard sometimes during the struggle. Now when I'm struggling and fighting the negative in my life to persevere, Am I really fighting to survive or am I fighting myself? Reason for this question is because I was told that everything should be done in love and never fight against anything within the universe because the universe we're part of the universe and not apart from it! Next time I'm struggling to keep strong, should I be more concerned with embracing hardship or trying to fight hardship?
Just because we are part of the universe doesn't mean we don't sometimes have to choose to fight. Although, when the option to avoid a fight is available, it's often the best option. But the universe is filled with both good and bad, and sometimes you have to fight the bad.

what is the proper business attire for meeting with a staffing agency?
i have a meeting with both accountemps and apple one soon. they tell me to dress in business attire. what specifically does that mean? i don't want to come too over-dressed or casual.
rule of thumb: it's better to over dress than underdress especially in business environment. suit would be good, but depending on how hot outside, you can do a suit with short sleeves. accountemps... better over dress with them.

Does going to church really help people get closer to God?
Good question. I agree with cantcu on what I call "Sunday Christians". Some are this way, but not most of the ones I've seen. My honest opinion is that your personal relationship with God is just that, personal. If you chose to not participate in organized worship, but worship on your own, that does not make you less of a Christian. I attend church 3 or 4 times a year, not on holidays, not because I don't like church, but because I prefer to worship in my own way. I feel that God will judge you by your deeds and actions, not whether your church attendance card is full.\n\nIf you lose your way, however, a good church will help you get back on track. I do recommend you go once in a while, though. If you don't like the way a certain church is, try another. Eventually you will find one that is a good fit for you.\n\nI believe that when God said "come to my house", he meant in a spiritual sense, not a literal one.

What kind of things do you do to deal with your parents' divorce?
Talk to your parents about your feelings. I know this maybe a difficult time in your life but you need to talk to someone. If you are still in grade school you can talk to your guidance counselor about this. You may want to also take up a hobby to keep you focused on other things instead of thinking about the divorce all the time. Good Luck and I hope this helps!!!

i got problem with my future and career, can anyone help me?
i went for several interviews, and all of them are seccesses. one is for power supply company, the other is construction company,. both of them are small. and the last one is from Australia, it is design consulting company. well, the positions are assistant to GM, the salary is almost the same. the differetiae are:\n1: the power supply company is a newly opened one, they are going to teach me from the basic. but the salary will increase slowly.\n2:the design unit is famous one, but not so much. the salary is low for the practice period, but i think i can make it double after that,. anyway, i have been working for two construction project before. so quite easy for me to overcome the difficutlies may happen there.\n3: the construction company is in another state, far away, and i have to make a lot of certificate, and also, they are not going to apply for the work licience for me to work there legally at fist, but do it after the practice period. but i can have much more power there.
The power company sounds exciting, you git to start on the ground floor of a growing business, and it's close to home so you still have a safety net, also if it doesn't work out your not in another state of country. and you get experience for the future.

Should a Little League Umpire be a sissy?
We have a Liitle League Umpire who really gets upset if he accidentally gets hit on the arm or leg with the baseball. He rants and raves about how the 10-12 year old catchers and pitchers are not protecting him. He has given warnings to the coach about his catcher not diving in front of a wild pitch and then he accidently gets hit. The kids feel bad but they are learning and sometimes can't help it. What can we do to get him to act more professional even though he volunteers?
Getting hit by the ball is part of the job. I ump for young kids, 12U. I wear steel toe shoes, shin guards, and a chest protector (sometimes). Tell this umpire that if he can't take it, he shouldn't ump. The league should be notified too. Also, the league should do more to encourage and train more umpires.

because of all the mutation passed down to our kids

Why is it that blacks are only 13% of America yet they fill 60 % of US Jails?
I am not a racist and only ask this question to understand these statistics. My neighbor is Black and my best friend is Black and without him I would have been in alot of messes. So to all the biggots out there know I do not ask this out of racism because that is the last thing I am.
Economic disparity. In any society, where there is a large portion of poor people, the people in those "economic casts" are more likely to commit crimes of opportunity (drug dealing, petty theft, robber, auto theft, etc). Unfortunately, many African Americans fall in these poor economic casts. Its not a race issue, and if you were able to find reliable data, I'm sure you'd find that all people in an economic cast regardless of race, are prone to commit the same behaviors, whether that is crime, polygamy, stock trading, etc.

hey girls, what should i do?
i like this girl for two years, and she knows it now, somehow she heard it from somebody and her friends start asked me if i like her, i'm too shy, and she is really nice and she is not shy, and she also knows that i'm shy, but then even i'm shy, i gave her 11 red roses and 1 pink rose at the last day of the skul, man i was crazy that day, but my point is i reallized that she likes some girl very much, i don't think there's a place for me in her mind i guess, and it is the one that makes me regret all the things i have done for her especially flowers, i don't usually talk to her but since she gave me her myspace i started talk to her and i figured out that she likes somebody... is there any hope for me? i mean i think she really likes him... i can't get rid of her from my head, what should i do? i'm not a psycho or something like that, i can't really help it please help me... thank you
well i think you should just get over your fear and ask her out. so that way you let her know you like her feel me. and if she says she can't be yours then you just have to get over her. i mean giving her flowers don't mean you really like someone it can mean anything. so one day call her and tell her how you really feel about her. YOU CAN DO IT.

What is the average weight (in grams) of an average, 100% cotton, Large size, shot sleeve T-Shirt?
Just the weight, in grams. I don't have a low range scale, and I need this estimate.
100-200 grams (~3.3 to 6.7 oz.) would be a safe estimate. It is going to vary a lot due to differing weights of cotton. A Fruit of Loom undershirt may weigh less than 1/2 of a top quality BEEFY-T or Jerzees t-shirt. \nThen there are those wonderful t-shirts from american apparel. So soft, so thick. Up to 270 gms. \n(all estimates based on ~ 1sq yd of fabric, roughly a size L T-shirt. The cheaper the shirt the less fabric for a particular size.)\n\n(Zack may be stating that grams are a measure of mass rather than weight. But even if he were correct, your question is termed in common terms and easily understood. Unlike Zack's comment.)

how can i keep everyone around me happy?
i m married for 3 years. i m very jeleous and possesive about my husband which is making him feel tied up he wants his space in life and i m not myself if i ristrict myself from asking him how he spent his day and why he did what he did. i feel bad when he hides something from me intentionally or un intentionally. he likes spending on his friends which makes me uncomfortable. other wise i take good care of him dont ever do what he dosent likes i dont make friends just to devote myself entirely to him. help me please as i want to save my marriage and live happily
It sounds to me that you could be smothering him. Give him some rope. Meanwhile, you need some hobbies and girl friends to spend your time with. That way, you can come back home and be lovey because both would have had other things to add to the relationship and conversations. Do some things you may be interested in doing. He should not be your only interest. Please do not smother him. Your happiness does not warrant itself based on his being around you all the time. Thank GOD for the work week so that I can see other people without explaining where I've been all the time. By you just being one tracked, you are digging yourself deeper in a depressive state of mind by making him your ONLY happiness.\n\nI hope that you can open your eyes to understand this. I sincerely hope that I was the lightbulb to your saga. Happiness begins with your self and definitely no one else should be able to control your emotions that they can't feel.

I am assuming that you are reffering to American Football which bears some similarities to Rugby. \n\nWell believe it or not it is football becase of the ball. From tip to tip the ball used in America Football is 12 inches long i.e. one foot. Hence the name football. ( atleast that as the original size of the ball).

How do you figure out the right career path in life?
Been graduated with my Bachelors degree since 2002 and still haven't a clue what to do with myself. i thought I'd find myself in college, but never did. Anyone else have this problem and how did you get through it?
During high school and after I was really caught up with friends and partying and you sort of lose yourself in that. The way I found what I really wanted to do was by thinking of what I wanted to be when I was a kid. Try not to think of money and think of a passion that you have and just go for it. Also spend more time with your family that can sometimes help you to realize where you come from and who you really are.

hey is it okey if my heart is beating fast ..... just by light work.. and than it hurts ...i get bad headache.
no. this is not okay. it sounds like you are having some issues with your heart conduction (the natural electrical impulses that control when your heart beats), and as a result your heart is not getting enough oxygen (causing pain). your blood pressure is likely reacting to that which could be causing the headaches. i would definitely see your primary care doctor and he/she might suggest that you see a cardiologist.

Riddle # 8!?
There is a dead monkey and a dead China person!(I feel sorry for the Chinese person!) Who killed those things?
Here is what happened (coming from a chinese person himself).\nThe Chinese person was eating something that tasted really good, almost like chicken. He tells everyone in the world, including the gods and the most powerful king. He says that the chicken he ate was the best in the world. Later, the chef that cooked his food told him it was a monkey, not a chicken. The chinese person was so embarassed and ashamed, he killed himself.\n\nThat's how you end up with a dead China man and a dead monkey.

Is it bad to go swimming on ur period without using a tampon? I've gone swimming at a hotel pool when I was on my period and didn't use a tampon. Water makes it stop temporaly. My mom doesn't like me to go swimming when I'm on my period. Some how she always know when i'm on it and I don't even tell her. I'm not aloud to use a tampon til i'm atleast 13. I just turned 12. I always tell her that water makes it stop but she doesn't believe me. Any way is it bad to go swimming while ur on ur period.
I've heard it's okay, but it doesn't actually stop the flow... here is what I found on-line...\n\nSwimming and having a bath\nYou can swim and have baths while you have your period. The water will quickly wash out any blood in the vagina and after the first few minutes the loss will be so small no-one else will see it. \nBathwater, pool water or sea water cannot get inside your body when you have a period (just as it cannot get inside when you are not having a period). \nGoing to the toilet before going swimming could help you feel more confident about this, since the flow of urine will help to wash away any blood from the vagina. \nWomen who swim a lot usually use a tampon. They need to remove the tampon as soon as they get out of the water, and put in a dry one.\n, but I don't know the reasoning behind it.

Who will be the next NBA Champions? I love some Shaq!?
Here's the thing. If you look at the stat sheet for this season, I'm supposed to pick Dallas mavericks because 5 players average in double figures for this team with Dirk leading the way with 28 a game. On the other hand, if you look at the Heat's line-up, with the exception of Wade and Haslem, this team is a championship team when they were in their prime. Most of this players were franchise players from their old teams so you cannot count their heart out even if they have aged a bit. But like what I said, Miami without Wade and Haslem is already capable of winning a championship, so with them in the mix pretty much sums up my answer. Its the MIAMI HEAT who will emerge as the NBA CHAMPs this year because of this 2 guys. Nobody can guard D.Wade and U. Haslem can make life miserable for Dirk. These 2 things plus Miami's Veterans equals another ring for Shaq and the first ones for GP, Walker, ZO, D Wade and Company. \n\nHEAT in 6 and Dwayne Wade is MVP

Longevity of parrots?
The long life expectancy of parrots seems quite anomolous to me when compared with other long lived species which are usually characterised by late sexual maturation, low litter/ clutch numbers and long term care of the off spring. Parrots become sexually mature quite early (-3 years?), have a relatiuvely high reproductive potential (2-3 per anum), why are they so long-lived (50-100 yrs). Something to do with increased reproductiv output of longterm pair-bonded birds?
Nobody really knows, but the most convincing explanation I have seen is that parrots evolved as desert species. That might seem strange to people who are used to viewing parrots as animals of tropical rainforests but even today by far the greatest diversity of parrots is found in arid and semi-arid regions of Australia. Certainly the parrot beak and claw arrangements seem ideally suited to hard, dry seeds more common to arid regions than to he soft fruits of tropical forests.\n\nMany desert animals have anomalously long lifespans. That is because reproduction in desert regions is unpredictable. Rainfall varies so much that animals may only be able successfully reproduce every 5 years, or even less. That is the situation today for many parrot species in Australia.\n\nThe first point to appreciate is that mating competition in male birds is incredibly stressful and shortens their lifespans markedly. In predictable environments that doesn’t matter because it doesn’t really matter how young a male bird dies. If every clutch survives it is more profitable for a male to mate with 20 females every year and die in 5 years than to mate with just one female every year and live for 20 years. \n\nHowever in unpredictable arid environments it is entirely possible that every single female mated with will fail to raise a clutch over an entire five year period. In such an environment a male that stresses himself by trying to be polygamous could easily die without leaving any offspring at all. With that sort of failure rate it become more advantageous for the males to become monogamous and survive for long periods than to be polygamous and survive for short periods. Although monogamous mate with fewer females they still produce far more young.\n\nWith reproductive opportunities so uncertain it becomes beneficial for a species to have longer lifespans. Birds of more benevolent climates can afford to gamble everything on a five years of reproductive success before dying but when there is no certainty of raising even one successful clutch in that five year period such a strategy is suicidal.\n\nI guess the main to point to bear in mind is that reproductive potential is not the same as reproductive success, in fact the two are only tangentially related. While budgerigars may have a reproductive potentially of 2 young every year they never manage that in the wild.\n\n\nIt has been suggested that the same ancestral environmental uncertainty is the reason why so many waterfowl are monogamous and long-lived. Many waterfowl can only breed when rivers or wetlands flood and such floods may be many years apart. As with desert animals that makes breeding opportunities extremely sporadic and puts pressure on males to evolve long term commitments and long lifespans.

what do you think?
does giving out condoms at the school clinic promote sex or advice students to protect themselves?
I think that it is encouraging them to have sex. If they want to have sex they can have the innitiative to go out to a health clinic to get free condom or even buy them. I still believe sex should be done when you are old enough and ready, so handing them out earlier to students promotes having sex earlier... This is only my opinion though.

What were the Celtics thinking?
They got Telfair a underachieving PG who no one wanted and a declining one dememension player. Then they give up Randy Foye who many believed could be ROY. They also traded Raef LaFrentz who could still contribute. Then they decided that Telfair wasn't goo enough so they traded a future # 1 pick and for another fading player and recieved the rights to Rajon Rondo a athletic PG who cant shoot. I mean if your gonna get another PG trade for marcus williams.
telfair is still a young developing player. he came straight out of high scool at the age of 18. he was not ready for the nba and should have went to college. but he has 2 seasons of maturity at portland under his belt. also he was often injured last season and is not a west coast player. he is a east coast player from brooklyn. i think playing in boston will help him and being under doc rivers will help as well. i thought it was a good trade becasue the draft was weak.

Why does the United States government treat people that live in flood zones differently?
I have friends who live in a flood zone that are not allowed to maintain their properties. The government wants to buy buildings only and not pay the value of the land itself. That means that they wouldn't get very much for their property. The government allows other people to rebuild and repair their homes and gives them the money to do this with when they live in flood zones. This flood zone is in a Civil War battlefield and the government wants to build a national military park here. This is not fair to people who have lived and worked hard all their lives.
When it comes to property, it should be handled by the local or state government, not the federal. The only time federal would be involved is in the issue regarding a national monument or park. I'm not sure how that process works, but I would imagine most of the blame should be pointed at the local level.

Why is coulomb chosen as the unit of charge? why not the charge of an electron chosen as fundamental unit?
The charge of electron is -1.6*10^-19 coulombs. The charge of electron is the fundamental charge. Then why cant we take the charge of electron as the unit of charge? Why cant we choose the sign of charge differently i.e. the charge of electron is positive? Are there any advantages or disadvantages if the charge of electron taken positive? Why should the unit of charge be coulomb, which is the charge of a mol of electrons? What is the importance of mol?
1. When unit of charge coulomb came into being the electron was unknown to the world (C. A. Coulomb 1736 – 1806), let along the magnitude of its charge. Also the electron has such a microscopic charge.\n2. It makes little difference if an electron is positive or negative, however since we all just happened to agree to it being called negative so the rest will fall in their relative places.\n3. Mol (see Avogadro's number http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avogadro%27s_number) is a way of saying that we have enough electrons to some standard. The mole is the standard method for communicating how much of a substance is present.

Since blacks couldn't play baseball in the "glory days" of MLB, weren't the 30s and 40s overrated, even Ruth?
Babe Ruth was not overrated! You can't help it if America was going through a time that they didn't accept others for their skin color. It wouldn't change the kind of player he was. Racism still happens today too, but maybe not as much. So don't be nieve and think discrimination and racism happened only back then. Remember 9/11? Anyways, Jackie Robinson was an amazing player! He played in the 40s even though he suffered a lot because he was black. Plus, if there was a league for black people then you would have to say the same thing about their players being overrated because there weren't white people in the league. I love all those that have left their mark in baseball even if it was really hard. Go Jackie Robinson!
