Why is a person always sad even when everything arround him is ok?
|
sometimes depression is the issue. If that's the case, his perspective is distorted. It's like watching life through a pair of sun glasses. Everything seems grey and dark. He needs to realize it is not that way, and life is truly what you make of it, and what your willing to see out of it.

where do words come from when you talking with a girl?
|
Your Back Brain... then through the front hemisphere, then through your vocal chords out of your mouth. But in all seriousness, words should come from the heart and head, not the nether regions. The way to win someone over is to be the perfect gentleman, say what feels natural, and don't feel forced to say what you don't mean.

is it a smart move to invest/buy the new iraqi currency?
|
I would consider an alternative. Should the Iraqi experiment (this being another attempt to stimulate it into a democracy) succeed in terms of stability, what other economies, and thus their currencies, will benefit? I would select a proxy currency that is more liquid, such as that of Lebanon or Egypt or Israel, all of which would substantially benefit from greater peace in the region.

Can someone be civilly or criminally liable for answers they post on Yahoo! Answers?
|
Yes, when posting in a public place or forum anything you say or type can be used to prosicute you in criminal court. However you can not be held liable civily...\n\nThe only reason it would not be wise to post an admittance of guilt to a criminal act is because privacy on this site is not expectd... If you could argue what you typed on this site was private you would have a case but in public forums there is no way yu could argue that and win... \n\nBest bet- keep you mouth closed

How do I employ an effective promotion/street team for my music?

My music has been getting plenty attention on another networking site - high on the charts consistently and page visits every day - but recent changes in certain features and the fact that I've become much busier are making it more difficult to get more traffic to the page, find new supporters and make consistent monthly sales. What are some other effective ways to increase visibily without taking time away from other parts of the career, and how are the best street teams organized?
|
I have seen groups solicite in their web site. If you have a small but loyal fan base they can really help out. \nOffer them "exclusives", access at a performance or bounus tracks or something. If you don't have a manager ... maybe you need to get one to keep the business side going while you create.

What do you mean by 'Blues' as a music genre?
|
Is it SAD SONGS
|
Blues refers to a genre of music that has its roots with the music of Afican slaves in th U.S. As you can imagine they had a lot to be unhappy or 'blue' about, hence the name. However, not all sad songs can be categorized as blues. There are certain instrumentations, harmonic progressions and scales (the blues scale or blues pentatonic as some call it, which is slightly missleading as it has six notes and not five as the name suggests) that characterise the genre. For examples refer to the music of BB King, Robert Johnson, Buddy Guy, John Lee Hooker, Stevie Ray Vaughan and Muddy Wasters, you'll soon understand what the blues means and begin to recognise its influence in many other genres.

Why is sarcasm addictive?
|
Sarcasm is usually used as a defense method. People fear sarcastic attacks and will definitely back away rather than confront. They know if someone is highly sarcastic, that same person will not mind saying something that might be humiliating or embarrassing as well. \n\nSarcasm prevents another from criticism and confronting. It's just a tool.\n\nI was once a sarcastic person who was unaware why. I simply thought it was cleverness. \n\nWhen someone used sarcasm on me, it hurt enough that I looked at myself and discovered why I was doing it and stopped - just like that. It's been years and I've never reverted to sarcasm since then.

What is cloning? What are cloned? Why is cloning resorted to?
|
Full details about cloning
|
Cloning is the process of creating an identical copy of an original. A clone in the biological sense, therefore, is a single cell (like bacteria, lymphocytes etc.) or multi-cellular organism that is genetically identical to another living organism. Sometimes this can refer to "natural" clones made either when an organism reproduces asexually or when two genetically identical individuals are produced by accident (as with identical twins), but in common parlance the clone is an identical copy by some conscious design.

what is PCR?
|
Polymerase chain reaction (PCR): \n\nA method for amplifying a DNA base sequence using a heat- stable polymerase and two 20- base primers, one complementary to the (+)- strand at one end of the sequence to be amplified and the other complementary to the (- )- strand at the other end. Because the newly synthesized DNA strands can subsequently serve as additional templates for the same primer sequences, successive rounds of primer annealing, strand elongation, and dissociation produce rapid and highly specific amplification of the desired sequence. PCR also can be used to detect the existence of the defined sequence in a DNA sample.

whether i have love marriage or arrange marriage?
|
An arranged marriage means you are taking a gamble on your life and his, and ultimately your children's. You don't know the guy and there's only so much you can know in a few days.\nTo discover something bad, disgusting, improper, unsatisfying, or unacceptable after marriage will only have you stuck with this person carrying that on your shoulders even if it's unbearable for you, for the rest of your life.\nTo take that gamble means that you could end up with a good guy, or end up with a horribly bad guy who doesn't do his duties but expects you to do yours perfectly.\nIt's something you don't want to gamble your life on, and it would be unfair to your kids because if you fail this gamble badly you'll be stuck in a bad marriage and yours kids will suffer with a dodgy or bad father figure.\nI think a love marriage is easier to cope with, and in the end you can tell your kids and yourself you married him because you loved him, not because he was chosen for you.\n\nWhatever the case, don't rush and choose wisely. Good luck!

what are day light savings?
|
From wikipedia:\n"Daylight saving time (also called DST) is the North American term for a system intended to "save" daylight (the British observe summer time, and likewise the Europeans). The official time is adjusted forward, (usually) one hour from its official standard time, remaining that way for the duration of the spring and summer months. This is intended to provide a better match between the hours of daylight and the active hours of work and school."\n\nIn my own wordings, it's adjusting time in summer/winter so you won't be going to school/work when it's dark, or waking up at 6am and the sun is too high in the sky.\nCountries usually adjust the time to make the change between summer/winter in sunrise/sunset easier on people.

Would I go to hell if I become a lesbian!?
|
You won't go to hell just for being a lesbian.\n\nNowhere in the bible does it mention lesbianism is wrong. There are passages that possibly refer to gay men (depending on the translation one reads) but none of them refer to women.\n\nConservative religious zealots only refer to sections of the bible that they find serve their needs anyway. Examples of commonly ignored scripture:\n How many houses of these people have parapets? (Deuteronomy 22:8)\n How many wear clothing of mixed fabrics? (Leviticus 19:19)\n How many adulterers are stoned to death? (Deuteronomy 22:22)\n How many trim their beards? (Leviticus 19:27)\n\n\nSo, if you are devout, know that just by being a lesbian, you won't go to hell. If you are attracted to women, be true to yourself.

what are the sign's of a person that is gay and doesnt want anyone to know it.?
|
Well, if you catch them engaged in a sexual act with a person of their same gender then that would be a good sign. \nI almost cringe to even answer that question because I do want to perpetuate stereotypes of homosexual people and I do not want people to think that there are real "signs" of being gay as though gay people are so different. Bottom line, it's probably none of your business. If you are a family member or are concerned for a friend's emotional wellbeing then maybe you could ask them. But if they are not "out" then you should not tell. Sexuality is a very personal thing and having a sexuality that is different or considered "wrong" by mainstream society or that person's family can be especially painful. Again if you are a family member or a concerned friend then offer a sympathetic ear and your ability to be sensitive and keep a secret. Otherwise, concern yourself with more pressing matters.\n\nRemember when addressing this that any sexual prefernce is not chosen. People are born with it. And even if people believe it is a matter of environment and not a matter of biology then know that it is still out of that person's hands. Please remember to be kind and understanding of all people and their sexual orientations.

Should I fight for my marriage after adultery or should I file for divorce?
|
Such a difficult question! I ought to know. This is the situation I am in. I have filed. In my case, this was not just one offense. Even though this was the first "technical" adultery, i.e. the first in-flesh fornication (that I know of!), there have been years of infidelity in one form or another, e.g. viewing of pornography, visiting strip clubs, socializing with women w/out me. I found out about all these things very much after the fact, as I was lied to for many years, beginning during our courtship. There was much emotional and psychological abuse. He has no respect for me. I hung in there all this time and worked my hardest to make things better, including making him go to marriage counseling, because I personally believed it was my duty due to the covenant I had made with God. ...but this for me was the last straw, and by God's merciful permissive will, this choice is provided for in scripture. I hope you have not suffered in this way, but if you have....as excruciating as I know it is....have courage to leave him. Maintain your self-respect while you still can. Hold him accountable for his actions, once and for all. If he truly changes and becomes a reformed person, it will become obvious, and perhaps you can one day reconcile. If he doesn't...well, then, you are better off. Now, if on the off chance that you have had a very healthy marriage and this was, as far as you know, a single transgression (...rather than a relationship or multiple cases of adultery. In my husband's case..this was a six month emotional attachment and relationship, involving much debauchery, too), it would of course be desireable to God if you could reconcile, particularly if there are children involved. ..but seek wise counsel. His true remorse and commitment to real change is imperative. Either way, seek counsel for yourself. The trust that has been breached will take years to rebuild. Above all, be good to yourself. There is NO excuse for his choice. God bless..and be strong.

Is their any medicine to relieve from asthma permanently? Or anything?
|
~~Man...I really hate it...from when i was born I have asthma and its genetic coz my mother has it too!! I am only 14 and cant let my life get worse day by day! plz help me ppl!! I beg u!~~
|
Please start by seeing a doctor. If your family has good insurance (or Medicaid -- most states covers kids above the poverty level), I would start with an allergist or a pulmonologist. If you lack insurance, there are often community clinics where you can go for treatment.\n\nAsthma is a chronic disease that isn't really cured but can often be very effectively controlled. Poor control causes many issues (and you know that!) and can even be life threatening.\n\nHow is it managed? The first step is to try and figure out what causes your asthma. This can often be an allergy (although asthma can also be triggered by other things such as cold air and exercise). Regardless of the trigger, a doctor will work with you to reduce that trigger. (In the case of allergies, this can involve everything from covering the mattress if the allergy is to dust to nasal sprays to allergy shots to limiting your exposure to certain things).\n\nThe doctor may also prescribe a slower acting medicine to help reduce the frequency and severity of attacks. This most often an inhaler but could also be a pill. And this is important: asthma seems to sort of feed on itself and treatment can help reduce the inflamation. Also important is to understand that this will not stop an astma attack that you justt started having -- it takes days to have an impact.\n\nIn addition, a doctor may presecribe a fast acting inhaler (often called a rescue inhaler). This is designed to be used to treat a current astma attack.\n\nSo the plan: a) reduce the triggers that cause the asthma; b) longer term medication to help soothe the inflamation and reduce the severity/frequemcy; and c) a rescue inhaler when a and b fail. If you find yourself using the rescue inhaler often, contact your doctor as the first two steps probably need refined.\n\nMake sense? Good luck!

Do you ever see something that can proof that there is a life after death?
|
I mean, you ever see an Angel, ghost, or something like that. Not just from read from Bible, book, etc.
|
No -- but I tried to test it. I had a friend who was dying of terminal cancer, and she was very religious and wasn't very scared. So I bought a combination lock and asked her to set the combination but not tell me. Then, I asked her to do everything in her power to come tell me the combination to unlock it once she had died. If the combination worked, then I'd know it wasn't a dream that I made up. She promised that she would do everything she could do get a message to me, because she loved me as a friend and wanted to bring hope to my life.\n\nAnyway, this was 2 years ago. Nothing. If there was life after death and the dead could communicate with us, I know for certain that Jen would have sacrificed a lot to get a message to me.

What is the best way to get financial aid from the University of Michigan?
|
Your first step should be to fill out the FAFSA (Free Application for Student Aid). If the government determines you have a financial need to help pay for college they will give you the pell grant. You should also apply for local scholarships at the college you wish to attend. Contact the college financial aid office to see what programs that have available. Also ask about work-study programs where you receive payments towards your tuition in return for working at the college.

Need immediate oral surgery, however all oral surgeons seem to want to be paid up front, and I do not have the resources.

Check in your area to see if there is a dental school in a university in your area. Temple University offers discounted dental care and the rate is based on what the student dentist charges. Check out your area it may be worth it.

What is a post-masters graduate certificate?
|
I have found a school that offers a post-masters graduate certificate. They say it is almost as good as a PHD. Any suggestions
|
The post-masters graduate certificate is a degree level that is intermediate between the masters degree and the doctorate. It became popular in education careers where promotions or job grades depended in part on educational level. They recognized this "sixth year" degree level as one year of study beyond the master's degree. You also sometimes see it referred to as a "specialist's" degree because some of the early post-masters degrees were Educational Specialist (Ed.S.) degrees. Other common names are Certificate of Advanced Study or Certificate of Advanced Graduate Study. \n\nThe utility of the post-masters certificate depends on what field you are in and why you want the degree. Some fields of study have the specialist level as the entering level for certification or licensure (school psychology, for example), in which case you would find it vital. Some fields (counseling, for example) might have the level of training required for licensure at the equivalent of the post-masters certificate level (60 semester hours) in which case having the certificate would be an advantage if you want to get licensed. Some fields allow you to specialize after taking a post masters certificate (i.e. Infant Mental Health Nursing) in which case the certificate is very useful. On the other hand, some fields really require a doctorate (most college teaching, for example) in which case the post-masters certificate, while good to have, won't fulfil the occupational requirement.\n\nI think the post-masters certificate is nice if you are working toward continuing education as it can help you make a more systematic study in your area of interest, and it appears that you have met a more unified goal than just taking courses.\n\nHope this helps.

Why do you wear sunglasses ??
|
first of all to look cool.\n\nHiding one's eyes has implications in face-to-face communication: It can hide weeping, being one of the signs of mourning, makes eye contact impossible which can be intimidating, as in the stereotype of the guardian of a chain gang, or can show detachedness, which is considered cool in some circles. Many cultures do not take them kindly. Darkened sunglasses of particular shapes may be in vogue as a fashion accessory. Note that normal glasses are very rarely worn without a practical purpose. Curiously, they can project an image of uncool nerdiness that sunglasses do not have. The impact on nonverbal communication and the cool image can be the reasons for wearing sunglasses by night or indoors. People also wear sunglasses when they don't want others to see that they're high by looking at their bloodshot eyes.\nEyeglasses improve visual comfort. Various types of disposable sunglasses are dispensed to patients after receiving mydriatic eye drops during eye examinations\nIt is important that the makers of one's sunglasses ensure that the glasses protect against UV (ultraviolet) rays. In the European Union, a CE mark () identifies glasses fulfilling quality regulations. In the preparation for solar eclipses, health authorities often warn against looking at the sun through only sunglasses.

what do you think of the wall that the US goverment wants to build in the Mexico-US border??
|
Seems like the USA should wake up and smell the coffee. Immigrants, illegals too, are coming here for a purpose for which anyone in their shoes would try to come. At the base, it is survival. Potentially, it's opportunity to make life better for themselves and those they love. Seems to me that we, the US of A, should see that as a compliment.\n\nSeems like the USA, could combine all of its creative wits and develop a way to use all this energy more productively and peacefully both long and short range.\n\nI say offer a handshake, rather than a wall, at the borders. Sign up the immigrants. Let them participate in the work force. Let them seek education. Let them participate in the economy. We're not talking citizenship yet. We're talking about letting people earn a responsibile living. Before allowing them to receive government welfare type aid, require them to become citizens first. If they wish to pursue citizenship, ok, let em do so. If not, let em return to their countries of origin or wherever.\n\nOf course, we should continue to exercise our concerns about drug trafficking and terrorist plots. But, gee! Should it be sooooo difficult to get into the USA to work, visit friends, and visit family.

|
Video on demand is not specifically exempted, but any network can apply for an exemption, which may be approved if they can show an undue burden. It is not very likely they could do this however, since video on demand is just a delayed broadcast of a regular broadcast, which should already have CC anyway.

Jesus came for a very specific purpose. To die. To be the substitute for you and I. He did not come to set up housekeeping, in fact He said Himself that foxes have dens and birds have nests, but He had nowhere to lay His head. He came to face the death penalty that God sentenced us with because we broke his holy law. Now we are pardoned if we accept this free gift from God on faith.

How do I start a pay per click business?
|
Like any business, you begin by planning the business model. What is the purpose of the business, who are the customers, how will the business make money, what are the competitive markets? Develop the strategic plans, marketing plans, and financial plans. Determine the breakeven points and the profitable timelines. Establish the critical paths and associated timelines. In all of that you will uncover the guidelines that will provide your startup with a better than average chance of success.\n\nAside from the necessity of planning there are many legal concerns you must be ready to face. How will you protect your customers from fraudulent clicks? How will you prove in court if necessary, that the charges to your client are true “human” clicks from legitimate customers? You will want to establish a corporate structure to protect your personal property from the inevitable lawsuits and court cases these businesses are currently plagued with. Developing the software, establishing reliable hosting services, managing the billing and merchant accounts are all relatively easy from here.

|
You'd better tell him soon because if you pass it to them without telling them first that you have it they can sue you. I'd tell him on the phone really quick , tell him you'll let him think about it and hang up nicely and quickly. If he likes you then he'll deal with it with you. Don't beat yourself up about it. It's a common problem and people are hopefully more educated about them these days. Good luck.

What is downcutting?
|
Downcutting Failures - cumulative process at the toe of the structure \n\nLake bed downcutting is another common mode of failure for existing shoreline protection structures and it is sensitive to water levels. For example, if lake levels are low and the waterline is offshore of the structure toe, downcutting will not occur. Conversely, if the water levels are very high, the majority of the wave energy will be dissipated on the structure face or will overtop the structure. Therefore, the amount of downcutting is very sensitive to lake levels. The picture at right, taken in the County of Prince Edward, Ontario, visually demonstrates the downcutting process. The concrete block wall was constructed directly on the shale lake bed. Over time, downcutting has eroded the shale at the structure toe and will eventually undermine the wall leading to a failure.

I am tired most of the time. Any LEGAL suggestions on how to get energy?
|
Short of amping ones self on caffeine and god knows what else they put in Sobe No Fear (my pick me up of choice). Here's a number of pointers from a registered sleep tech:\n\nEstablish a good routine for you sleep schedule:\nbed at same time, wake at same time sort of business. Don't let weekend get you out of whack.\n\nGet a full 8 hours of sleep. Although, many need somewhat more or less than that based on age and individual differences....8's a good average to start with.\n\nNo caffeine for 6-8 hours prior to bed\n\nDo not work out 1-2 hours prior to bed\n\nNo TV or reading in bed (train to body to only sleep in bed, well and other necessary activities with one's mate)\n\nIf you have difficulty sleeping due to thinking too much about...well anything that keeps you up....things to do etc. Try to write everything down that you will be doing for the next day before bed so that you won't need to think about it in bed.\n\nIf you are sensitive to noise, try earplugs, or blindfold if having light issues.\n\nStress can always add to the problem, try to relax! \n\nOK, now the really important stuff...as many mentioned...this could be a health issue. The most common problem (and often undiagnosed) for being tired all the time is obstructive sleep apnea. This is the bread and butter of the sleep field in general. No way I could tell you without a complete history, a couple dozen wires and a few hours, if this is the problem. Go to a sleep lab, they are everywhere, doesn't hurt to have a test run eh. However, here's a few things to red flag ya:\n\nAre you tired all the time...clearly yes\nAre you at all overweight.\nDo you have a 15" neck or larger.\nDo you snore.\nDo you wake up with dry mouth or headaches.\nDo you or anyone in your family have any history of heart problems, particularly Congestive Heart Failure.\nDoes anyone in your family snore or have Obstructive Sleep Apnea.\nDo you get up to go to the bathroom several times a night.\nForgetfullness\nImpotence\nummmm....I'm sure I've left a few things off....anywho...\n\n\nIf anything on this list pops out, and even if they don't for that matter, go have a test at your local sleep lab.\n\nOn a more rare note, there is other sleep disorders that could make you tired all the time....say narcolepsy, insomnia, parasomnias, periodic leg movements, etc. Everything can be evaluated at a sleep disorders center, generally one doctor referal away. \n\nGood luck!

A seed is planted.A tree grows dies & decomposes. the same for us.is the earth's diameter not growing?
|
the ratio of seed to tree or sperm to corpse is phenomenal. I've been determined that this is ,atleast,a relavent notion ever since my 7th grade teacher sent me to the office for mentioning it. I am now 26 yrs old. even considering the decomposition process into the equasion it makes sense that the earth would be getting bigger. right? Think about all of our dumps and about the extra square footage that a coffin is left with negative space.
|
Why would earth be growing because of people and trees? Everything that life is made up of comes from earth and when we die goes back to it. Material is not born from thin air. All living things primarily are hydrocarbons.- we are made up of Carbon, Hydrogen, oxygen etc everything comes from the plants/animals we eat. Plants are made up of what they absorb from earth. A trees over the years through photosynthesis converts all the carbon dioxide it takes and water it absorbs into itself. It is made up of carbon and hydrogen and oxygen. That is why deforestation contributes to increasing levels of Carbon Dioxide. The carbon in the tree is released back into air when it dies. CO2 and H20 are gases and water but inside the tree they are solid Hydrocarbons. The minerals that the plants take make up some of their body. Our bones are made up of calcium which comes from milk which comes from plants that cows eat and plants get them from earth's soil.\n\nNothing we are made up of is born out of nothing, everything is from the earth. Earth's diameter might be growing because of meteors or comets but not because of us. In fact I doubt meteors etc that bump into earth contribute much to earth's mass and I am sure a something is lost into space by earth as maybe, dust.
