Native Americans- "artifacts..."?

Hi. I am hoping that some Native Americans from any nation can give me their feelings- do you object to the finding/purchasing/collecting of artifacts? Such as knives, arrowheads, pottery, and so forth? I do not wish to perpetuate any stereotypes about "sacred things," but I am aware that some Native Americans object (understandably) to the archaeological rifling through of their graves, collecting and "studying" bones of their ancestors, and so forth, and was wondering if similar feelings extended to tools and other objects. Thanks and forgive me please if my wording betrays any ignorance. :)

What are the Stereotypes of East Asian Guys? 10 PTS!?

Hate/scared to talk on the phone, and talking face to face with strangers.?

I'm a 14 year old female, when I'm around my friends I'm extremely talkative and crazy. But when it comes to talking or even being around a person I don't know, I get really scared and quiet and try to avoid the situation at all costs. EX. I won't pay at a grocery store, order my own food at a restuant ( i make my parents) or ask someone for assitance and even when i went to an "open court" for tennis during the summer, i didn't know any of the people and refused to get out of the car, even though i wanted to play extremly bad. All my friends, and my family make fun of me for it and i can't do anything about it. I break down and cry, hide, or get really really nervous and try to run away if I'm put in these situations. I'm also the same way on a phone, i won't pick it up unless the caller ID is my parents or my friends. For school i was forced to call 10 people. ( 7th graders parents to let them know how they were doing in shcool) and i cried/panicked for an hour. One of my friends fianlly coaxed me into doing it, but the two people i called couldn't understand me becuase i was stuttering and kept loosing focus of what i was saying. I will only txt strangers now, no matter what. Can someone please help me, I don't know what to do anymore, and my parents are always upset with me because of this. ANy suggestions will help! ( maybe) And just saying "get over it" isn't helpful, because i mentally can't.

Why do Democrats perpetuate the myth that most college graduates are Democrats?

Most liberal aka democrats have crappy working jobs, "art" jobs, and whatever their trust funds can allow.

How can sending someone to jail for puffing a little pot, be considered "tough love"?

Well a lot of people don't always learn by just being told. This is wrong to do. Smoking Pot is wrong. So sometimes people have to find out for themselves and face consequences the HARD WAY!! Tough Love Sometimes people have to learn that way because they won't listen.:)

Women with IBS who have had children, which is more painful?

I am being serious, because I have irritable bowels and it is honestly the worst pain I have ever felt when it flares up. I can't imagine having cramps worse than that. I cry, scream, and starting taking off my clothes in shear panic when it gets bad. I have heard having a child or having a kidney stone are the two worst pains in life, but I am not sure that is true when it comes to IBS, can someone with experience in both areas please answer? Also, please include whether or not you had drugs/an epidural? Thanks so much!

How can I get over my love shyness?

Oh plz....Stop all this psychobabble nonsense, there's clinical, and there's clinical. Just go to their place of work, burst through the door like a bull in a china shop. Note, i said like a bull, not full of bull, hello M8. Pause, to get yer composure, seductively glance across at them whilst straigtening yer tie and then say in a very self assured way.....'are we 'avin a brew then'. Of course, this doesn't take into consideration the fact that there may be no tea, the milk may have gone off, etc etc, bu. t at least give it a try. Failing that there's always skinny latte's. GREAT!

Is it normal for a female dog to become aggressive after being spayed?

I have just had my 6 month old female husky spayed and she has suddenly gone from being sweet and quite submissive to a bit of a hot-head. It's been almost 2 weeks since her operation and she isn't fully healed (although she is acting like it by running around all the time!), so I understand she may be feeling vulnerable. She never directs this anger toward me or my boyfriend, however has begun directing it at her brother (he has also been fixed so it's not down to him trying to have sex with her or anything). They had a fight today over absolutely nothing and I tried as hard as I could to separate them but she just kept launching at him every time I got her away. She eventually got mad with me trying to intervene and as she was trying to get at him, she bit my leg and it is now a bit bruised and swollen (before anyone says anything, I realise this was my own fault but it was getting out of hand. I had no choice!). Is it normal for them to behave like this when they have had this kind of operation? This really scared me and I had a bit of a panic attack afterwards because it has never took me so long to get them apart before. They usually stop as soon as I tell them to but this time they ignored me and just carried on. She has done this about 4 times since her operation, and every single time I have seen no clear reason for it (i.e. fighting for possession of food, toys etc). She just starts the fight and even when he is willing to back off, she won't stop and doesn't care if we are in the way.

Lower right back pain that radiates to lower right pelvic area for months. possibly ibs?

I have had this since March 2011. Bad pain in my right lower back.. right hip.. right lower pelvic area.. into the top of my crotch and down by where my crotch and leg meet. I am a 21 year old female. Went to the doctors.. he suggested anxiety since I have had anxiety and panic attacks since 2005. I did a urine test that came back fine, had an renal and abdominal ultrasound which came back fine. I was thinking IBS since im very irregular... the pain is odd though.. sometimes it feels like i have a rock in the right side of my abdomen, or sometimes it hurts to move like its a muscle.. or sometimes its a stabbing pain for 3-4 minutes in the lower pelvic area and then it goes away... and then sometimes it shoots down to my leg. Very odd. My doc said to take probiotics.. so im taking a probiotic plus fiber.. and the pain seems to almost disappear when im on it, but i ran out for a week and the horrible pain came back.. finally just got some more and it took 4-5 days of taking it and it is almost completely gone.. seems odd?? i just dont want it to be something serious but my doctor doesnt seem to be worried.. wondering if this is ibs symptoms?

Why do people complain about the nWo when they're the ones helping and perpetuating?

Do you know this really obscure Canadian 'made for video' movie?

Came out in 88/89...silly comedy about a ranch turned into a health spa to pay off back taxes....it was directed by a well known Hollywood actress/sex kitten (back in the Sixties/Seventies.

How many types of female orgasms are there & what are they? Is "squirting" a type of orgasm?

*Right before I squirt, my boyfriends penis is causing a strange but good feeling either on my G-spot/bladder area. Then I let him know so he can pull out & I squirt - sometimes a little, sometimes a lot and I can do this multiple times. Is this female ejaculation or urine??? (I don't know whether to enjoy it or panic).

Sources of how women contribute to the continuing of sexism?

I would help you, but then you would be accepting help from a man. Thus becoming a contributor to the continuing sexism by needing a man's help to write a paper. ;)

I want to understand everyone?

It is not possible to relate to everyone and everything about them. The people will relate to the most are those who share you personal interests as an individual, it's in our human nature. Best advice to give you is to simply not be concerned with the opinions and emotions of others you don't relate to. Understand their position and accept the opinions of those who differ from you.

I caught my friend watching the My Little Pony TV show, what do I do?

I had him over at my house and we were playing Xbox and then I go upstairs for a minute and come back and he's watching a cartoon about pink ponies and he says that he watches it all the time. I panicked and told him I had to do laundry but what do I do? He's my best friend and I'm afraid he might be gay?

Been seeing and hearing things..?

I think you have Schizophrenia, but it is best to go to a doctor and let them know your symptoms. Plus you can also go to a psychiatrist and they will tell you is you do or not, plus they are professionals. I am sorry but I cannot offer any type of advice in this case since it seems like a medical issue.

Why do some people say that Obama is just "cleaning up Bush's mess" when Obama is repeating Bush's mistakes?

I've heard the assertion that we should give a Obama a break because he's just trying to fix the calamity he inherited from Bush. But, I don't think anything could be further from the truth. The single most fundamental cause of our current economic crisis is SPENDING. Bush caused our current economic calamity because he was a reckless government spender and Obama is perpetuating our current calamity because he's ANOTHER reckless government spender. Bush produced our enormous deficit and national debt by getting us into a gratuitous and irresponsible war in Iraq, creating a stupid government bureaucracy called the Department of Homeland Security, and spending all that money on bailouts, stimulus bills, etc., If Obama was truly trying to "clean up Bush's mess," as his supporters claim, he would try to abolish the DHS, try to get us out of Iraq, and take meaningful steps to balance our budget and make as many spending cuts as possible. But, has Obama tried to do any of these things? NO! He is just following Bush's footsteps of fiscal irresponsibility! Like Bush, Obama has started another war in Libya, while continuing the present war in Iraq, has spent just as much, if not more, than his predecessor, has supported more bailouts and stimulus bills, and has no intention whatsoever of making any spending cuts! So, why do Obama supporters continue to make excuses for him on the grounds of "It's all Bush's fault", when Obama is just another Bush?

Opinions on this excerpt?

I actually liked this a lot. You did a pretty good job. There were a few spots with awkward phrasing but it can easily be fixed during a revision. The only other thing that bothered me was a grave in the.sand. i would think it would be difficult to dig a grave in the sand and the second part of that is the foliage you describe. There would have to be good soil for trees and flowers to.grow. they simply don't.grow well.in sand.

So this makes a naked preteen allowed on an album cover?

You said her genitals are obscured by glass. So therefore it's not child pornography. Not only that, it may only be someone who LOOKS like a preteen. Show us a link that proves she's underage.

What do you think of this theory?

First of all, i thought of this myself, however i doubt i am the first one. If you look at the world, particularly through a scientific perspective, you see that the forces we cannot describe (gravity electronic pull, energy movement in general) is all trying to get back to one particular state. It all tries to balance out, basically. No matter what we do to stop it, it there will always be a net force moving back towards the state of, lets call it 'perfect balance'. A universe where everything is perfectly balanced out and there is no energy/motion at all and everything is at peace. When this happened, there would be a total lack of any energy, and without energy the universe would almost cease to exist, like removing a dimension from a cube, unless it has all 3 dimensions (arguably 4) it is nothing anyway. Finally, if/when this hap pends and the Universe settles, perhaps it leads to a 'big bang' or super explosion. Personally i don't find this theory so obscure. This cycle could possibly have been going on endlessly.

Where can I go to find an obscure TV commercial from around 1990?

I'm trying to identify a commercial in the L.A. area at this time. I think it was for Mountain Dew, and it featured a skateboarder going through L.A.. I can't find it on Youtube. Is there a forum or something where I can go to ask other people if they know what it was? Thanks.

Did I have a panic attack?

Got in bed last night. Lay down, turned to the side and covered my face with the quilt which I always do. Iclosed my eyes, then suddenly, I sort of felt dizzy and like I was going to be sick. I also felt that if I did not open my eyes, that I was about to die. Not sure why I thought I was going to die. And, of course, I have never died before so could not possibly know what it feels like when you are about to die. However, I really felt like if I kept my eyes shut I was not going to wake up in the morning. It was quite a scary experience to be honest. It happened a few times. Every time I closed my eyes and tried to go to sleep. I have had that feeling of going to die a few times before but not experienced it like I did last night. I have had/have an anxiety disorder/s.

Do i have a problem?!?

I need to know if i need help or if i have a problem, basically i haven't spoken to my dad in 3 years because of bad problems and a while after this i kept on having panic attacks each night for like a month where i would be laying in bed and i would start to feel really hot but start shivering uncontrollably like a fit or something and then i would feel like my stomach is sinking and i would shake for a good 10 minutes or maybe longer and start to sweat, since then i have been having recurring dreams where each of my family members are in a room being hung from the ceiling and it would be a different person each time. After this passed i have realised i get angry extremely quickly and i take a stress ball every where i go as i feel im in need of it anywhere i go, i like cant go anywhere without it. i have have a bit of trouble from school as i have been suspended and stuff and also recently i think of the most disturbing things in my head and i know i do it but i cant physically stop them from coming up, like literally so disturbing and messed up, i seem to get really paranoid sometimes and angry extremely quickly. i think i may have a problem but i don't know what it is, is this me just being stupid but this has gone on for a few years and im starting to get more worried and think about it everyday. any helpful answers would be great.

Will this running plan work?

I plan to run 3 miles in 21 minutes by the end of august. My aim is to run 3 miles in 21 minutes or better for the USMC test. My plan is to start with a mile and bring my time down to 7 minutes and run at this pace for several days. Then start the 2 mile and bring that time down to 14 minutes and finally, bring my 3 mile down to 21 minutes. I know this plan is kind of obscure, but I hope you get the picture. Also, I plan to run three times a week

What the first pop record to fully utilize synthesizers?

What was the first record that used only synthesizers? This would be a song without any (well maybe a little) real instruments. It would help a lot if the song is a top 40 song, and not an obscure one.

Do people like me perpetuate negative gay stereotypes?

im just curious. im someone who has struggles for her entire life to accept myself in every way. i had issues with bulemia and self harm from a young age, ive spent time in hospitals for my eating disorder. my life came together when i accepted my sexuality and everything got better. does that mean that im a negative stereotype?

Could I have a mental illness?

Since I was little I've had severe OCD and Panic Attacks. OCD examples; not swallowing my spit because I brought myself to believe that if I did my family would die. Always counting my steps, turning over objects a certain amount (even numbers) of times that would usually equal 4 or 5. 4 being the members of my family and 5 being the members of my family and my pets... I would be saving their lives. I still do this frequently. If I try to stop myself from being OCD, I get very uncomfortable (I clutch my hands and try to think of something else) but it drives me insane. Lately it's been getting worse, I've been in a bad mood all week and I'm depressed. It's exhausting, having to deal with all the thoughts in my head... calculating and adding up letters in words-- and all for what? Nothing. I try to stop myself from doing this but it's like I CAN'T. I've been snapping at people all week because I'm just fed up with myself, I hate myself at this point. I have bad thoughts of killing people and then I feel dirty because of the mistakes I've made in my life and I am just unhappy. Sometimes I find myself talking to myself, just having conversations with someone I don't know and about a situation that's never happened to me. And when I catch myself, I'm like... OK STOP, I'm exhausting myself. What should I do? I might go to a Therapist... I'm just wondering if there's a name for my problem? Oh and if it matters at all, I'm 17.

How do you feel about individuals who use a much larger than average vocabulary in normal...?

I had a boss who had a great vocabulary. In the beginning, we would make a tally mark for every word she used, that we didn't know. There were many at first. She broadened my knowledge and made some words seem more user friendly to me. I became more aware of my speech and words that I could use to enhance my presentations or conversations. If the vocabulary is second nature to the speaker, it is very effective. If not, it is a nuisance.

A text similar to 'Lolita' to compare with?

I need to compare 'Lolita' with another similar text for my A level english Literature coursework. It needs to be a text that explores similar themes, and is similar in some respects- but it can be in a fairly obscure way. Has anyone got any suggestions of books that would work well with this? It also needs to be a substantial text (not a children's or young adult's novel) If you could give me any suggestions, and then give a brief reason why they are worth comparing that would be great :)

Can you slightly dumb this down? SLIGHTLY?

The International Pilot Study of Schizophrenia and the Determinants of Outcome of Severe Mental Disorders study used a template of symptoms of psychosis across cultures to identify groups of patients who seemed similar, but these studies left out all those patients who failed to fit the template. It is these excluded patients that Kleinman suggests are of greater interest from a cultural perspective simply because they are the ones who would reveal the greatest amount of cultural diversity. In the International Pilot Study of Schizophrenia and the Determinants of Outcome of Severe Mental Disorders study, catatonia (a form of schizophrenia characterized by a tendency to remain in a fixed stuporous state for long periods) was diagnosed in 10% of cases in developing countries compared with less than 1% in developed countries. Hebephrenia (a form of schizophrenia characterized by severe disintegration of personality) was present in 13% of cases in developed countries and 4% in developing countries. These differences in the disease in developed versus developing countries indicate that there is more to the prevalence of schizophrenia than simple epidemiological data. Better prognosis in developing countries may indicate different sets of aetiological and perpetuating factors. While prevalence studies can help contribute to an understanding of the aetiology of schizophrenia, psychodynamic issues—such as cultural identity and attachment—must also be studied, especially among migrant groups, as cultural congruity and ethnic density may influence the presentation of suffering individuals to psychiatric services

Why, after thousands of years, have the human species not stopped killing each other?

In the name of god, in the name of the country, in the name of democracy...profit, territory, personal gain, etc. These are ideas that have perpetuated the killing of human beings throughout history. Is it possible to end our attachment to these ideas?

Women can be as oppressive to other women as men therefore helping to perpetuate male domination?

Questions about seeing the gynecologist?!?

Ok so I've always heard that once a girl turns 18 she needs to go and see this doctor. But, my friend whose 17 was panicking cuz she said her mom was gonna make her an appointment and we figure the doctor can tell whether or not you've had sex. Her parents dont know, and now I'm freaking out cuz I just recently lost my virginity to my bf and we've been having sex and I don't want my parents to know, esp. Since he's 24 and my parents don't even know we're dating!! I asked my bf about it and he said the doctor would keep that confidential. Is this true?!

Okay so i was on the laptop typing to my friend on my game then all of a sudden i feel something wrong in my body system, then my face went numb chest and hands, i think my whole body went numb. i was feeling tears going down my face and i was breathing heavy and fast and got light headed and on my chair i felt like was going to black out, i started seeing darkness, i trembled to my bedroom and scrambled out on my bed, panting and still numb 5 min after i fought it away i think, and it's been an hour but i feel tired and week. my parents aren't home i don't know what to do is it serious? what would've caused this?

I think I just got PTSD from work emergencies?

My client had 3 life threatening emergencies within 2 hours last night. After that, whenever she made a noise, I thought she would have another seizure and tried to rush over there, but she just coughed. Then I was outside w/her family and thought I heard her screaming for help and panicked, but she was fine. I had 2 startle reponses driving home. My roommate is home, and somehow made a noise that my client would made, and my heart started racing until I realized everything was fine. I keep thinking I'm hearing my phone ring, my computer do things, and for some reason, I think about her seizures. They were all really bad and the confusion and seizures lasted over 15 min each. I'm afraid I'll be there and she'll die and that I could have prevented it. Is this PTSD? It happened on the job, but I was told what i was getting into. What do I do?

Am I pregnant from this?

I gave my boyfriend a handjob on May 22nd and then, a few hours later, wiped when using the toilet and panicked I could be pregnant. On June the 6th, my period came slightly late (a few days), and ended on the 11th. I gave him another handjob on the 12th. Since my period ended, I've had a loss of appetite, bloating and nervousness, usual PMS symptoms for me. My period is due July 4th. What are the chances of getting pregnant from a hand job?

What clique do I belong to?

I would say Indie or Alternative. It kinda reminds me of a quote, "I was uncool before being uncool was cool." I don't really know what I was. People referred to me as "the nice girl". I never smoked, drank, did drugs, had sex, etc. I never bullied anyone & I was friends with just about everyone in high school. Some people made fun of me, saying things like, "Stupid, goody-two-shoes, prude." But a lot of other people respected me for holding on to my morals & standing up for my beliefs. :)

Is this a good research topic?

Should the media be allowed to perpetuate news about their victims for the purposes of profit and sensationalism?

Why can't most people remember their past lives?

Now, of course I can't remember ALL of mine, just like I can't remember every single day I've been alive, but I can certainly remember most of the noteworthy ones. Yet almost everyone I've talked to can't remember anything from any of their past lives at all, and some even go so far as to deny that they've reincarnated at all. Is it some kind of special skill or something you need to do it? I know it's not simply some sort of delusion or false memory or whatever, because I've tested it, looking up obscure historical facts that I "remember" from myself living in that period. And every time it's proven to be true, when there's no conceivable way I could have known about it beforehand.

Any idea on my friends dream?

In the dream, she was outside in the evening when all of a sudden there was darkness. She desribe that there were other people that she saw outside as well, who were one by one being taken by an orange light. She continues to tell me that she headed inside of a building to hide where she saw several people including her children behind a glass wall. She felt that behind the glass wall was sort of a safehaven. She put her hands against the glass and screamed out to her children to get their attention. She was able to, but she could not get through the glasswall. All she could do is cry tell the others in the room with her children to please protect them. Her last memory was pressing her palms against the glass and she cried. She then woke up in a panic and called her husband. If anyone could help me break down this dream. Id really appreciate the help. Thanks!

I can't stop thinking of different ways to take my life, please help.?

Okay, so my Dad was diagnosed with Biplolar Depression, Manic, with Psychotic Features. He took his life after 8 years of dealing with it, and I've been depressed my whole life. I constantly cry for no reason, I also have panic attacks around people, and I think about suicide ALOT! I stay in the house, because it's gotten so bad. I can't be around people, or I just cry. I've tried to be closer to God, but that hasn't helped my depression at all. I feel like I'm stuck with all these feelings and emotions because my dad was the same way, and I don't wanna live like this anymore. I'd rather be dead, than live everyday of my life sad and thinking about being dead. I'm only 19 years old, but this has been going on my entire life. and my Step dad and the rest of my family, make fun of me because I act so different, and my mom always tells me I'm just like my dad. I can't even spend time with my friends anymore because of my Depression. I've also ruined lots of my relationships because of it, I'm starting to think I'll never be happy. My life is going completely downhill, and I'm scared, because I can't control this, and I don't know how much longer I can put up with it. Anyone have any advice? I don't know what to do anymore!!

Why are german shepherds SO neurotic? Why perpetuate such a problematic breed?

Where do you get your info? Most of the GSD's I know are nothing like that at all. They're great family dogs. Granted, if you get them from a puppy mill or a BYB you're taking some chances, but the well bred GSD's are AWSEOME dogs. Easy to train and very versitile.

How to get rid of panic attacks?

I've been having severe panic attacks since I was about 11 and I'm 16 now. When they first came, it would happen on a regular basis, and would last several hours. At times, I would end up in the emergency room because of it. My mom took me to therapy and put me on medication to control it, and it subsided for a while. But recently they started to come back, and they're getting pretty bad. Almost to the point where I don't wanna leave me house, because I'm scared I'll panic in public. I've tried to relax and things like that, but it's not helping. Is there anything I can do or take to help control them? Because I really don't wanna go to therapy or take pills anymore. I just want them to stop. Please and thank you.

What good has affirmative action done so far?

If the ghetto is still the ghetto, then apparently blacks aren't "taking the white man's jobs" as is claimed by anti-AA advocates. If blacks really were getting all these high class, high paying jobs, then blacks wouldn't be the poorest race in America. But undoubtedly, blacks would have an even harder time without AA.

How can I calm myself down when I'm having a panic attack?

My life has been pretty hectic since I was about 12 yrs old, I'm a very tough girl & handle any negative situations very well. I am now 22 and have experienced the loss of my grandma & a miscarriage both in April. Which caused me to drop out of college cause I started having these very frightening panic attacks. If anyone has ever had one, it's very scary and makes you completely shut down where ever you are. I need to find a way to calm myself down, I already know what they feel like & what I think after it's gone away.. I've accepted the whole process & they are gradually going away. But I want to be prepared just in case it happens again. (Note that, I refuse to take any medications, I want to mentally be able to get over this & I have been keeping this a secret from my loved ones & the boyfriend I live with.)

Are there any female superheroes/villains who are actually admirable?

I like Storm and Rogue and to me they aren't just background characters as you put it they have there own stories and stuff like that and both get a lot of screentime. Storm to me more fits the description she is very powerful and there isn't alot of sexual stuff about her.

How can I clear my underarms?

Hello, I have razor and shaving but now, I have to dance school and raise his arms wide, but I'm sad because my underarms are very dark (and will dance with a partner on the side) so I would like to know if someone tells me as cleared in 2 weeks, and which method is right for me to shave without obscuring my skin, lasting longer and not irritated, Really I need it...!!!!

Both libs and cons: do you agree with this GOP-candidate's stance on our declining educational system?

"Eliminating federal involvement in K—12 education should be among a president's top domestic priorities. The Constitution makes no provision for federal meddling in education. It is hard to think of a function less suited to a centralized, bureaucratic approach than education. The very idea that a group of legislators and bureaucrats in D.C. can design a curriculum capable of meeting the needs of every American schoolchild is ludicrous. The deteriorating performance of our schools as federal control over the classroom has grown shows the folly of giving Washington more power over American education. President Bush's No Child Left Behind law claimed it would fix education by making public schools “accountable.” However, supporters of the law failed to realize that making schools more accountable to federal agencies, instead of to parents, was just perpetuating the problem."

4 Year Relationship Issues?

I had been with my girlfriend for 4 years. I wanted time to myself 3 months ago and didn't know how to explain it to her properly. I handled things wrong and she felt and thought that I didn't want her anymore. Her friends also mentioned to her that I could be cheating. Which wasn't the case, but I was speaking to girls though. I'd chill with my friends more than her but that wasn't actually it my "friends" smoke weed and that's what I was really there for. I was trying to run away from my issues. After a while a guy in her math class started to flirt with her. He told her he likes her. He has a job, and access to a car from his parents. I have no job and access to no transportation but a bus. After about 2 months, she tells me she already made her choice. Shes going to be his girlfriend. I was surprised since we were together for 4 years how could you just move on to someone else that quickly. I react in panic and I give her my passwords and show her that I have nothing to hide. I show her the conversations with all the girls I have spoken to. I had spoken to them in a flirtatious manner after I thought guys were flirting with her and she was flirting back with them. So I showed her everything. Her response was: I knew you cheated. Everyone was right. She cried. I cried. I just want her to know the truth. Everything is a big misunderstanding. She won't believe me though because 3 months passed and and shes with him. Full out relationship. I understand the miss-communication that me and her had and still has. She thought I didn't want her. When it was really because I was frustrated. I felt as if I was living a fake life. My feelings & perception of things were. I didn't make her happy, I got her mad too often, we got into a lot of fights, I didn't take her anywhere nice enough. & the + I felt as if we needed time apart time to ourselves. So I tried to play a game, I tried to make her leave me. It worked. I didn't intend for her to leave forever though, and I handled things wrong and she felt that way. She felt extremely hurt. = ( The one I love... all I want to know is.. is there any chance of us being together again? & if there is! HELP ME!!

Opposition to French/American imperialism? Nationalism? Ambitious leaders? Mistreatment by American Forces? I was just wondering why North Vietnam had the morale to perpetuate the conflict even after tactical debacles such as the Tet Offensive.

What will my teacher do if I pass out/or have a seizure in front of them?!?!?

I'm 13 and I keep passing out, or blacking out. Sometimes I'll fall, and not wake up for a few min. Others, I'll just black out for 5 seconds, and I'll wake up before I hit the ground. My dr says it's stress, and he prescribed an antidepressant/anti anxiety medication. It's one approved for teens. He said I have blood sugar problems, possible hyperglycemia, but he can't be sure cause my blood work was fine when they checked it. I have panic attacks, and that has led me to pass out before. One time I almost passed out at a parade in June,(I'm in band) and my teacher freaked out! She didn't know what to do. I never actually lost consciousness that time though... My dr told me a week ago, that I'm at risk for seizures. He told me why, but I don't remember the reason. I've had absence seizures but I never realized I did until he explained them. He said it's possible I have epilepsy, but he can't diagnose it unless it happens again or something. Within the past week, I keep zoning out for a few seconds and then not remembering anything after. And normally when I pass out, I'm alone, so is it possible I have seizures without even realizing it! I'll wake up in the weirdest positions, like with my knees up to my chest, or my entire body sprawled out. It's scary. I go back to the dr in a few days, but I want to know if number one it's possible these are seizures, and if numbe 2, there's a cure. Right Before this happens, my vision gets all blurry, and my head hurts horribly. It feels like my entire body goes numb, and I get this weird feeling of like deja vu I guess. Like i know what will happen next, and like its all happened before, but I can't put my finger on it. Then it seems like everything's in slow motion, and I get rly anxious and scarred. Idk why that happens. I'm more worried what will happen at my band practices in august. We have to go for 4 hour everyday for 2 weeks. What will my teachers do if this happens then and is there anything I can do to prevent this?:)

Can you rate my picture please? I'm really self conscious.?

I don't know if my dad raped me?

When I was 8 I started getting abnormal sexual feelings that I couldn't explain. My little sister (who I hardly see becoz my dad had kids with too many girls) she once touched me and said "doesn't that feel good?" She was 6 at the time and I was 10... I thought that was very abnormal and I pushed he hand away and got a really sick feeling. When I was 12 I started getting panic attacks and I was diagnosed with depression (I take medication for both now). I'm now 14 and I'm starting to have flash backs of my dad raping me, I never see him anymore but it's really disturbing me....and now that I started getting flash backs I realized that if my memory is true that my sister might have also got raped by him because she touched me when she was only 6 years old. My flash backs are happening more often and I'm frightened about this. Help?

I can't swallow pills and also...?

Idk but I have the same problem and I'm 22. Can't swallow pills, can't eat food without a lot of chewing and a drink. I can't even eat jello or pudding without chewing. People say its in my head but I've tried a ton of times before and no go. It feels like my throat is closing off when I try.

What are some good and original modern bands?

I like mostly rock but any genre would be ok. What I dont like is mainstream radio rock that sounds all the same and obscure indie bands with more distortion that music. (no offense) I mean something comparable to the bands from late80s/early90s for example RHCP, Nirvana, Alice in Chains, alternative rock bands etc, that actually brought something new to music.

Does my boyfriend want to be with me?

Ok, I don't know the real answer to this question, but I do know how you can find out. Try talking to him even if it is hard for you. If you honestly can't then another option would probably be moving on. If you both agree about this, then ok, but talk about it a little first because, you don't know how he truely feels about you yet. I wish you luck. :)

I am looking for a free budget website or software that I can download for free.

What do i do with career?

Hi basically i feel abit stuck. I was recently promoted to a supervisor at work however i started to feel stuck and panicked I was going to be doing it for the rest of my life. I also had a policing degree starting in September and i thought to myself maybe im missing out on a good opportunity so I told work and they had to put me back to a normal colleague. Currently after thinking about it I can see that the policing degree is a waste of time as theres no guarntee of a job and its to restricted plus all of the debt. So I was just wondering what peoples views are on these following options? I can either go to univeristy to do the policing degree, stay at work as they are looking around for supervisor jobs and theres a management scheme in september i can apply for. many thanks :)

Obsolete / obscure saying?

When a person was, shall we say, not quite all there, my dearly departed grandma used to say they were "not quite 60 rowies (sp?) to the ounce". Anyone got any idea about the origins of this phrase - and how it's spelled?

Black people: Do you think it's dangerous that the media portrays blacks in only one way?

I did not read your whole story but for the most part it is true. And even Directors like tyler perry portray black people in the same sense. Loud, Over the top, etc.

Did we essentially stop evolutionary progress by using modern medicine?

If it weren't for antibiotics, surgical advances and life supporting devices, most of the crippled, deformed and retarded/crazy people would not be able to reproduce like they do now. Are we ruining it for future generations by perpetuating "weaklings". (Not trying to be offensive here, but can't think of another way of phrasing this question) Is "Survival of the Fittest" doomed?

Does reality TV perpetuate too many negative stereotypes of women?

I have been bothered by this for a long time. When I flip my channels in the afternoons there is always some reality tv drama of catty trashy women. Sometimes an entire episode would be devoted to going to the mall and paying for a bunch of clothes as if that's what all American girls do for a day. There are way too many Kim Kardashanian/Paris Hilton types who do nothing but act like leeches.

I'm sorry but will we all have to dress like this in Cameron's Big Society or will there be two Big Societies?

I'm skeptical about the Holocaust?

Do you need to see the plethora of photographs of dead Jews, or the concentration camps, or the final solution created by the Nazi party. It was one thing for people in 1940 to be skeptical because there was little evidence then because they kept it quiet, but now if you don't believe so you are just an idiot.

Every time you see a church when you drive?

In the Bible, God said that he is not willing that anyone should perish. If the end of the world happened in 1800, none of us would have ever been born. We would have perished.

How to change the color of an LED light.?

I have a 5 LED light that hooks on to the bill of my hat. It is usually used to walk thru the woods at night or do outdoor things. However i want to make each of the lights a different color and bring it to clubs at night so i can turn it on and freak people out :P I dont want to get super technical because its all encased, so screwing with wiring or soldering is out of the question. My plan was to cut different color films and tape or glue them over the lights. Will this work, i want the lights to be vivid? Will they be obscured by tape or glue? Will they look good and can this easily work for a reasonable price? Im open to any method that will work i just want it to be affordable and appealing! Thank you all!

Looking for videos of The Horrors?

I'm a big fan of the band The Horrors, but seemed to have missed out on a lot of the videos (as in random, non-interveiw related things) and I don't know where I can find them.

If anyone knows links to any of these videos, or any other obscure/funny/must-see Horror related vids, please tell me!! Thanks!!

Confused with Teen Wolf Episode 5, Ending?

I didn't understand what was going on when everyone was panicking, and running to their cars after the conferences. Why did only Allison and Scott not understand what was going on?

In Darkest Africa Value?

Obscured in my bookshelf, I recently discovered a 2 volume set of Henry Stanley's In Darkest Africa (Illustrated w/ maps). I believe them to be the first American edition, for they were published in 1890, not so long after the book itself was originally published elsewhere. It's in fine condition, the spine loose, though quite unnoticable, and the interior is not worn to any extent. So, based on the description given, what would the value of this edition be estimated at (in $)?

Hey anime/manga fans....does it suck if it's popular?

No, and actually I personally believe that anyone who would abandon an amazing series just because it has gained popularity is an idiot. If the series hasn't changed then there is now reason to like it less just because more people have started to like it. If you don't like a fandom for a series then just stay away from it, don't let it ruin a good series for you.

Obscure old webcomic?

There was an infrequently-updated webcomic that I used to read a number of years ago about this heroine who defeated a kind of demon guardian in a dungeon by beating the demon at chess. The demon then became the heroine's protector of sorts, saving her from this giant centipede made of bones and all kinds of other things. I remember, perhaps incorrectly, that the web address was short, and started with the letter k, and I don't think that it had a .com or other "typical" web address ending either. Unfortunately my computer crashed and lost all of my bookmarks but I'd really like to know what happened!

What is inherently wrong with swearing?

It depends on the context of the swearing. Are you trying to offend someone by it or not? I don't think it's "wrong" unless it is meant to offend someone. At the same time, it's something that's frowned upon by many. It's best to just get used to it even as a religious person who is taught not to use the language.

Did Donald Trump Commit Political Kamikaze with his Protracted and Vicious Character Assassination of Obama?

Why is this situation so confusing?

So I feel this girl likes me so I stick around, but then she does something really b*tchy then I move on. She then acts nice and really flirty and basically won't let me move on. She gets jealous of other girls I give attention to, she flirts a lot with me, and she always teases me. Though the weird thing is when I text her, some days she answers really nicely and continues to write long message back to me, then other days she doesn't even reply. So it's like she gives some, then takes it all away. A while ago we went to the movies and dinner and we really seemed to be having fun together, but I didn't know it was a date so I didn't ask her again. Then a few months went by and she brought up to our friends that we went out on a date, so panicking I ask her out again later that day and she says she'd think about it, only to say no. So far, I've asked her 3 times and she's said no. I asked her if there was some reason why she says no and she said maybe. I just don't understand why she gets jealous and flirts with me and never lets me actually move on. What do you think?

None really - in either case he's out of the way. But I think we can believe people when they said he got a bullet through the head. There's no need for the conspiracy whine - although it always takes place no matter what happens.

Hello, today i dropped my ipod touch into a bowl of pho, i quickly took it out and continue playing cause nothing happened to it but about a 3 minutes or so later it turned off by it self, so i panicked and took my charger and charged it, it didnt work so i tried to turn it back on, but still it didn't work. After that, i put it in some uncooked rice (found info on youtube) and i left it in there! I'm not sure if it is going to work because it is still in there, but just incase, is there any other way? Please help me, my mum doesnt know yet! I just need help. Thank you! :)

Is my Itouch done for good?

Keep it in rice for a couple more days, 2 days is too short, your iPod might be working right now but in a couple of days your iPod will probably shut down on you, so keep it in the rice for about 1 1/2 - 2 weeks, and your iPods sleep button should work again, it will get rid of any water marks left behind on your screen , and your iPod won't shut down on you in a couple hours. Make sure to turn it off!! Btw don't keep checking it everyday to see if it works, that will wear away any electrical components that got wet, after two weeks, PLUG IT IN as you power it on for the first time.

Effexor XR to Celexa?

I have panic disorder, not depression, and a slight case of social anxiety. Effexor XR has done wonders for me, seeing as though I haven't had a panic attack since taking it (along with lorazepam, which is mostly for withdrawal, slowly getting off of it). I have had slight insomnia from it but feel as though as long as I exercise for twice as long I will get over it. My psychologist prescribed me to Celexa and I've heard bad things about it, but good things as well. Anybody else switched like this? (Info: he wants me to take it at night, I drink alcohol often which is why I like Effexor b/c I take when I wake up) Effexor has helped me so much I guess I'm just scared to switch to another drug which could bring back panic attacks..experiences would be helpful..thank you

Why do atheists perpetuate their evil theory that the Earth revolves around the sun?

Because they have nothing better to do than perpetuate half truths. The Earth revolves round the sun but the sun also revolves on it's own axis.

Why is being "PC" towards blacks popular and fashionable?

There are plenty of materialistic white people and other races too. You can't just get on black people for being materialistic. If you're going to buy into "the representation we are given of them" then you are stereotyping. That isn't fair.

Can you guess what my ethnicity is?

To be honest, and not one people would accept, it is the region they are living in. If you are ever poor in a liberal area with high taxation no amount of hard work will get you ahead. This goes for Europe to as my friends over there will agree to. If the economic playing field is flexible there are tons less stereotypes defining a person because they have the chance to define their own persona among any number of people and not limited to one group. Generally a population of economic class will tend to look for common ground and band together.

Hey, does anyone have any advice or opinions?

yes this is actually very common, this whole exact thing happened to me you must just have more patience, i come from a different country as well, and trust me its important to not forget where u came from. However this is difficult because no one here is gona understand you. America is not like any other country, most people here just do as their told even if the current fashion is completely retarded, and something ur parents will never really understand cause in fact it makes no sense to someone with culture. What you must do is listen to ur heart and be who U want. I chosse to learn and be everything, so ive developed a social talent to be able to talk to and relate to not only Americans but any race and cultural backround, being that i am a mix of Mexican, Japanese, African, and Spaniard. Have patience be real and be yourself youll notice u have an advantage over everyone that is making your life impossible, most people don't think for themselves and just mimic, and are totally fake. If u cant socialize properly its because you use more of ur brain than average people, so u are above average, in conclusion Average people will be told what to do and mimic that action like a robot. your brother is not a genius, Real geniuses instead have to fully understand and believe what their being told is really true and makes sense in their head, yes they must accept it as the absolute truth and feel confident believing what they just learned. have patience. Ur more special than u think.

White horizontal lines on still images taken on Ricoh Caplio R5. Movie clips not affected.?

Fault appeared suddenly in middle of photo shooting. 'Still' pictures taken before fault occurred display perfectly on camera's monitor. New pictures appear for a fraction of a second before being obscured by white horizontal bars; images can be seen faintly behind the bars, like looking through venetian blinds. When uploading onto a pc, the pictures have the bars across. Camera had not been dropped, had been in use minutes earlier without any problems. I've tried putting in different memory card, recharging battery. One other thing - when I noticed the fault, I took out the battery and the tiny clip that holds the battery in place snapped off. It did not fall into the camera, and the camera still works without it. Movie clips can still be taken and display correctly on the monitor and when uploaded.

What are a type/brand/style of ugly/unappealing shoes that for some reason never seem to go out of style?

A shoe that can be worn with socks. Not sandals, not crocs, not uggs, not flip-flops, or some quick obscure fad that the average person wouldn't recognize. So please make it something most people would know what you are referring to (It's not a trick question, or a riddle. This is an honest question for a genuine question.) If you can't think of really ugly one's, then go with shoes that can be worn with socks that everyone knows. Women's shoes preferred but men's shoes are fine as well Thanks for any answers that you can provide that follow the guidelines listed here.

When my panic/anxiety sets in, what causes...?

my throat to feel like it's tightening and starting to close? I have yet to understand why I feel that whenever I begin to get anxious or have panic attacks. Is it just in my head? >.>

Can too much drinking in a short period of time cause a rapid heart beat?

here's the deal i haven't been the same since my father died on january 12, 2011. Since then (and it's june 29th 2011 now) i haven't been able to stay sober for longer than 10 days at a time. I drank a lot in the span of 5 months. I also have a caffeine allergy so i don't know whether it's the drinking that's causing this or my caffeine consumption. I had this symptom for the last 2 weeks or so on and off with some minor chest pain. The last time i got palpatations it was the caffeine but i still get them on days when i don't have any caffeine. It's not like i can run to my doctor and say "hey i drink too much" i'd look stupid. I just hope i didn't really **** up my heart and it's not too late i'm only 18. I never did any drugs or smoked cigarettes and i don't have panic attacks or ainxiety. I did try 4 lokos a few times but i stopped drinking them since february and will never have them again TOO DANGEROUS. Any advice would be appreciated thanks

Can you slightly make this easier to understand? keeping all statistics etc.?

The International Pilot Study of Schizophrenia and the Determinants of Outcome of Severe Mental Disorders study used a template of symptoms of psychosis across cultures to identify groups of patients who seemed similar, but these studies left out all those patients who failed to fit the template. It is these excluded patients that Kleinman suggests are of greater interest from a cultural perspective simply because they are the ones who would reveal the greatest amount of cultural diversity. In the International Pilot Study of Schizophrenia and the Determinants of Outcome of Severe Mental Disorders study, catatonia (a form of schizophrenia characterized by a tendency to remain in a fixed stuporous state for long periods) was diagnosed in 10% of cases in developing countries compared with less than 1% in developed countries. Hebephrenia (a form of schizophrenia characterized by severe disintegration of personality) was present in 13% of cases in developed countries and 4% in developing countries. These differences in the disease in developed versus developing countries indicate that there is more to the prevalence of schizophrenia than simple epidemiological data. Better prognosis in developing countries may indicate different sets of aetiological and perpetuating factors. While prevalence studies can help contribute to an understanding of the aetiology of schizophrenia, psychodynamic issues—such as cultural identity and attachment—must also be studied, especially among migrant groups, as cultural congruity and ethnic density may influence the presentation of suffering individuals to psychiatric services

How do you handle your child's "sleep regressions"?

My 13 month old son sleeps through the night a lot of the time, but he has nights where he'll be up 1-4 times a night. He usually sleeps in cycles-week or so of sleeping great, about a week of sleeping poorly. He usually sleeps through the night long enough to get me used to it, then he's up multiple times. I assume that most of the time, it's teething related so I give him teething gel and/or baby ibuprofin. Some times, he wakes up hungry all through the night even though he has a pretty healthy snack just before bed time. I get advice from time to time to just let him fuss a bit in his crib to see if he'll go back to sleep and that I'm perpetuating the sleeping issues by getting him and feeding/giving him medicine/etc at night. He still sleeps in our room (space issue mainly-one bedroom house), and it seems faster and easier to get up with him and put him back to sleep than to wait and see if he'll go back to sleep on his own. Are they right, am I perpetuating the sleep issues by getting up with him?

Result if a nuclear warhead were detonated above a large body of water?

I'm sure this question must seem strange, but I was wondering about the hypothetical result of a nuclear warhead (or other comparably large explosive device) being detonated (in a city or similar) directly above a large body of water, such as a lake or swamp. I'm sure much of the water would be forced out of the lake, but would a considerable amount simply vaporise? I know this is obscure/odd, but that's why I've come here. For a bit of direction, I'm trying to gauge the overall effect of a nuclear blast on a city's water supply. I've been looking at post-apocalyptic culture and scenarios lately and I'm wondering what proportion would remain available (e.g. not vaporised). I realise that most remaining water would be incredibly irradiated - I'm not concerned with this. I just wanted a rough idea of how much would be left to 'salvage', and thought an individual body, feeling the full brunt of the force, would be the best place to start. Thanks.

Are most people complacent and accepting?

We are people too so we are just as prone to complacency as men so I don't see how we would do any better being the majority of the legal system. Now that's not to say that I wouldn't like to see more female law makers because I would like to see more take a greater interest in the legal system but for the reason of representation by our peers not because we are in anyway intellectually superior or more morally capable than men.

I want to die. Please help me.?

Oh my gosh how did you even know what suicide is when you were in the first grade? In grade 1 I was only 6 years old and had no clue about these things! Sorry to say his but it's not a bad thing.. You need to speak to a professional. I know maybe you won't want to hear that but trust me I went through almost the same thig as you when I was a teenager. I saw my psychologist on a regular basis and I actually thought she was the only one who understood me. Please don't kill yourself. If your mom is in any way harming you then you should really do something about it. Please get some help! It doesn't even have to be a psychologist just someone you can trust like a best friend or relative. It may seem hard to realize at times but I know and you know too that there is someone who cares.

Why can't people accept more minorities are on Welfare?

If your white boss were hiring more blacks and latinos, perhaps fewer of them would have to be on Welfare. But, Black men are put in prison for taking drugs when they're 18... White men are ignored, because their drugs are done at Frat parties. When the Black man gets out of jail, to survive he had to become a hardened criminal.

I want to learn about snooki?

What messages about gender, family, status, and social class does this character portray to his/her audience? What roles does this character portray, and what social groups does he/she belong to? Does this character perpetuate any stereotypes? If yes, what are they?

Fear of sleeping over at someone's house?

When I was younger (around eleven or twelve), my little sister developed a Separation Anxiety Disorder. She was terrified to sleep away from home, and convinced that if she did something really bad would happen, like our parents dying or something. Eventually she grew out of it, but not before her panic had infected me. It started out as SAD, but eventually I lost the fear that something bad would happen, and I'm just terrified of sleeping at a friend's house. I'm fine sleeping at family member's houses, and I'm also fine camping or staying at hotel's...but the thought of spending the night at even my best friend's house makes me break out in a sweat. I've had this issue for years, I'll be Seventeen in November and I haven't spent a night at someone's house since I was maybe twelve. I'm pretty sure this is agoraphobia (not the fear of going outside. that's not what agoraphobia is. in case you were confused :P). I'm just wondering what this might be called. thanks :)

Should I get a further work-up for MS?

Amy ... I would say with a fair degree of certainty that your symptoms are not directly related to a medical illness. They are related to your worrying and stressful environment. You need to see a doctor, preferably a psychiatrist, for medicine and therapy for the neuroses. Your symptoms are typical of panic disorder. It isn't healthy to go untreated, because fight-or-flight response slows down our immune response and nutritional absorption ability making us more susceptible to disease. Chip

Special interests groups NEVER disband. Why?

Some friends and i were discussing groups such as ACLU NAACP women's rights gay rights ect all these movements that are started to achieve goals that are good, and how after the goal is met that they become business, career paths and political springboards that must self perpetuate by "discovering" problems to continue their wars against rather then disbanding and saying "we accomplished our goals" Instead growing into huge money making organizations with political propaganda and lobbying rights that deviate from the original good missions they began as an turning into loud invasive rule makers who try to bend the majority of citizens to sacrifice their basic rights to make room for the special unequal rights of others. This trend also is seen in government organizations formed to achieve a task that eventually become a ongoing expense of a never resolving missions such as the war on drugs. Most people when they achieve a goal move on to the next thing but these organizations become creatures of their own that must eventually be dealt with, Does this make any sense to anyone out there?

Will this running plan work?

I plan to run 3 miles in 21 minutes by the end of august. My aim is to run 3 miles in 21 minutes or better for the USMC test. My plan is to start with a mile and bring my time down to 7 minutes and run at this pace for several days. Then start the 2 mile and bring that time down to 14 minutes and finally, bring my 3 mile down to 21 minutes. I know this plan is kind of obscure, but I hope you get the picture. Also, I plan to run three times a week.

Can anyone list as many genres as possible?

I am looking for more music to listen to. But instead of band names i just want genres. Ill take anything no matter how obscure or unheard of. Anything from dubstep to metal to reggae etc. Subgenres (such as pirate metal, folk metal, etc) work too.

Help with Mcdonalds Employment!?

You need to prove that you can work under stress - and not be like a fish out of water. Unfortunately, how you appear in the interview for a fast food job reflects how you will be working in these stressful situations. Academics mean nothing in these types of jobs. If you have experience working in a team environment - teaching soccer, currently (not in the past) playing in a sporting team -= these are ways to prove your ability. That is what they are looking for. What they want is someone they can train and has a low probability NOT to move to a better paying job in the future - so do not mention your percieved money problems - that would be a red flag.

Can you tell me your honest opinion on these baby names ?

Why are certain people of color inexcusably noisy and rude?

Oh trust me when I say this, it is not only coloured skin people who do this. I've seen white girls and boys mostly young people, scream and swear unnecessarily. It happens all the time, yes it is really frustrating especially when you're on the bus from a difficult hard days work, hoping to travel home in peace and then comes on these hooligans. Yes so annoying, annoying is probably an understatement.

If kids want to call metalcore "screamo" then why don't we just let them?

I mean 2nd wave metalcore like BMTH and Asking Alexandria etc, kids seem to think that's screamo, if they really want to take an old word and make it mean something else why don't we just let them, instead of getting mad and saying "NO, screamo is bands like saetia, pg99 (some random obscure band from the early 90's) etc"?

What does he want? How do I make him understand?

So, this guy and I both like each other, but he refuses to date me because he's apparently a commitment phobe ("im scared of overcommitting to a girl and that will either scare her or make her lose interest in me") even though he's never actually had a relationship. Anyway, whenever we would talk, he'd always flirt with me and say things that keep me guessing about whether he was having second thoughts about a relationship. One time, after we didn't see/text each other for like 3 weeks, he texted me out of the blue with "guess who shot across my mind.." Of course, I thought it was me. No, it ended up being some actress from a movie he had just seen unless that was his way of hinting that it was me without actually saying it was me, but I'm done making excuses for him. But when I confronted him about what he wants, he says he just wants to be friends and nothing more. He won't ever be direct with his feelings toward me but instead be ambiguous and say all these robotic, obscure things like "in due time, my intentions will be revealed" or "im reserving if i miss you or not :)" so I was so fed up with all this crap that I just scrapped this situation and moved on cuz I figured if he's this confusing/manipulative now, then it's a good thing we're not together. So, I decided to date other guys. But one night, our mutual friend texted me saying that she had let it slip to him that I was seeing someone else. And according to her, he said "oh...she didn't tell me that" and was really disappointed and didn't talk so much after that. So, about a week after this, he asked me about the guys in my life. And I acted like I didn't know what he was talking about. Then, he said "I thought ____ said you went out on a date" and I danced around the topic. So, he said "do you know what I did when I found out? I cheered cuz I was so happy that you're dating someone!" which was interesting to me cuz obviously, it bothers him when I see other guys; he'll just never tell me. Anyway, I decided to ignore him because he always gives me headaches, and I need some space from him. But it seems to backfire cuz now he just texts me more. I would like to keep him as a friend, but he keeps trying to play with my mind (prob because he knows i still like him, and he's using that against me). And if I tell him this, he's gonna say that he's not doing anything but being a friend -__- but I feel like he's trying to string me along! I need to not talk to him, but he's making this impossible. I don't know what to do

I think I might have a blood blot.?

So I was sitting in my living room and I noticed that my legs looked a little swollen by my shins right below my knee. My mom had 3 blood clots a year ago and since then I have been TERRIFIED of getting one myself. I have a panic disorder so when anything out of the norm happens to my body it freaks me out... There isn't much pain where the swelling is, the one leg hurts a little but it could be from me poking it. Anyways can someone help?

Men, what do you think of women who still watch and buy Martha Stewart?

Wasn't there a made-for-tv movie in the 1980's called Invictus?

I remember a made-for-tv movie from the 1980's about a group of high school boys and racism. I am certain it was called Invictus. I was impressed and would like to watch it again. But I can't find any mention of it anywhere! Am I hallucinating, did it have a different name, or is it really just that obscure? Does this sound familiar to anyone?

Buy a House or Travel?

If you are buying a house and it is 3 times more then your rent you can always refinance in a year and take the cash out to travel. A house can be a great investment. But right now property values aren't what they should be and you need to weigh how good of an investment you are really making. When you get your appraisal done see what the comparables in the neighborhood are selling for and what your house is worth. If all the properties in the neighborhood are less then I would be a little weary of purchasing. There is always the option to buy a more affordable house and travel as well. Since homes aren't really worth what they should be I think putting all your money into a house at this point isn't wise and you could get a house that is cheaper. I currently rent my rent is double my mother mortgage. Her house is bigger then mine. These days it's more expensive to rent so I think you need to shop around for a bigger deal.

Obscure video game (can't find info about it online)?

I remember looking through a video game magazine in the 90's and seeing an advertisement for a video game that had a very unusual name. From what I remember, the cover art for the game displayed an-almost demonic figure, pale faced figure dressed in all black, with a huge black hat on (similar to the WWE Undertaker's hat, but way bigger and floppier looking), and he was holding two huge swords in each hand. I thought the name of the game was "Chakka" or "Charakka." Does anyone know what game I am referring to?

Is this Knife legal in the state of Michigan to carry concealed?

I have a U.S. Air Force grade knife. The blade is 3" 5-16 long, one edged, spring-assisted, flip out knife. It has a small window breaker stub on the bottom end. I'm curious about whether it would be legal for me to carry this knife at all times or at least at certain times? I've read the Michigan Law that talks about the legal restrictions but they are very wordy and obscure. Can someone please boil it down for me? Thanks.

What does this dream mean ?

When I was 9 or 10 years old I had a dream waking up in the dark with people surrounding me saying some kind of weird words and there where five candles around me and I realized I was in baphomet star , is was the devil star whatever you wanted to call it. Then I got up and started running away from them in the dark and they corned me and started saying the weird words again I was screaming & I woke up in a panic too scare to fall back asleep. So this mean anything or is it just a nightmare ?

Okay..Earring Infection. HELP!?

Wash it carefully, frequently, with whatever you got from the piercing place. You could also try putting neosporin on it (you're not really supposed to, but it might help the infection). Go to the doctor and see if they will give you an antibiotic--that will make the infection go away, but the doctor will also instruct you to take the piercing out. It's your call if you want to or not, see how it goes. Once you take them out, you can't put them back in. You'll have to wait until it heals and get it re-pierced.

What are qualifications but the subjective preferences of employers?

Pure sophistry. There are plenty of objective definitions of qualifications. The ability to lift a given weight in a job which requires heavy lifting, for example. Or typing skill for a data entry position. I could go on.

Does anyone know where I can get a list of possible A-levels to do in England?

I've already done my AS year of sixth-form, but I feel I have the aptitude to take another A-level in my next year. I've looked around, and I personally can't seem to find anything, but I was wondering if anyone knew where I'd be able to find a comprehensive list of ALL A-levels there are possible to do in the UK, specifically England. My school doesn't offer many, and I've only just recently found that there are highly obscure courses available which I never even knew existed! To anyone who can help, thanks in advance, I really appreciate it!

Why do we keep the anachronism of the royal family? What is their purpose?

The Queen provides continuity. No matter how many political parties are in power she is still there and is a repository of all that has gone before. You need to check your resources again. The royal family is not supported by the tax payers. The Queen is one of the richest women in the world in her own right. What is given to the royal family for their public duties is actually paid back to the treasury by the Queen. She and most of the royal family pay a tremendous amount of money to support their duties.

Is this the kind of press Ron Paul can come to expect?

I think the libs are afraid of him.. While watching the debate, Mr Paul seemed to be the only one that really knew what he was talking about. And none of his answers seemed rehearsed as the others did. I sensed that some of the questions were so inane that it almost angered him.. I think he will surprise the far left media..

What do creationists think of hominid fossils? Are they all planted by Satan?

When a scientist finds hominid fossils that are millions of years old, how do creationists rationalize it to perpetuate their delusion? Do they just ignore it? Call them phony?

Stata and NLSY help!! Codebook?

Hello, So I'm doing a paper on the effects of parents income level on their children and how inequality is perpetuated through the education system. I have the data file for what I want to use, but I'm not sure what all of the variables stand for. Is there a way to look in stata and figure out what the variables mean. Or since its the National longitudinal Survey of Youth and not data i compiled myself, I was wondering if there was a way to find a codebook online that tell me what the variable stand for? If anyone can help me even a little bit that would be great!!!

Is there anyone out there that knows how i feel? (anxiety)?

I DO KNOW!!!!! I am 19 now, I was diagnosed with Generalized Anxiety Disorder and Depression at age 13. I have had tons and tons of severe panic attacks which are NOT controllable at all!!, but you can learn how to cope with them and you will learn your "starting signs", I had my worst panic attack my freshman year of high school during band camp. It was the worst most scariest thing I had EVER been through! I literally thought I was going to die!!!! I have been on several different medications, and I have only found 2 that I like. I was on 20mg Lexapro but I had to quit that because it was really expensive, but now I am on 40mg Celexa, which has been a lifesaver!!!!! I use to see a therapist for Cognitive behavioral therapy which has been proven to be the best method to control anxiety, but not even that could help me.. But dont let your anxiety control your life, you control your anxiety!!!

Good names for story characters?

I like really obscure names for characters. Like I have named people Patches and Lactos. So include some awesome ones and maybe a little background too? And make sure to say if it's a boy or girl name. That would be awesome :)

Why don't people understand that capitalism is authoritarian?

It is because the capitalists have brainwashed them so badly that they can't see it's authoritarian. When you work for a wage, it is because of necessity. You are forced to work or else you will face the consequences of poverty and famine. Such a thing is not voluntary. The workplace is the greatest tyrannical place in existence.

Do dirt bag parents realize their approach to parenting dooms their children to be dirt bags?.?

As I look at children as young as 4 or 5 it becomes clear even at that age which are going to have a delightful life, grow up well adjusted successful people. It also becomes clear which are going to be dysfunctional deadbeats that perpetuates their ways on their children. Do these people see what they are doing or are they oblivious to the damage they are inflicting on their own children?

Why do some people say that Obama is just "cleaning up Bush's mess" when Obama is making Bush's mistakes again?

I've heard the assertion that we should give a Obama a break because he's just trying to fix the calamity he inherited from Bush. But, I don't think anything could be further from the truth. The single most fundamental cause of our current economic crisis is SPENDING. Bush caused our current economic calamity because he was a reckless government spender and Obama is perpetuating our current calamity because he's ANOTHER reckless government spender. Bush produced our enormous deficit and national debt by getting us into a gratuitous and irresponsible war in Iraq, creating a stupid government bureaucracy called the Department of Homeland Security, and spending all that money on bailouts, stimulus bills, etc., If Obama was truly trying to "clean up Bush's mess," as his supporters claim, he would try to abolish the DHS, try to get us out of Iraq, and take meaningful steps to balance our budget and make as many spending cuts as possible. But, has Obama tried to do any of these things? NO! He is just following Bush's footsteps of fiscal irresponsibility! Like Bush, Obama has started another war in Libya, while continuing the present war in Iraq, has spent just as much, if not more, than his predecessor, has supported more bailouts and stimulus bills, and has no intention whatsoever of making any spending cuts! So, why do Obama supporters continue to make excuses for him on the grounds of "It's all Bush's fault", when Obama is just another Bush?

Where is the line when it comes to racism?

All of the above about Obama are true, and it's not racism, at least not on the Conservative end. I'm sick of peoples feelings being hurt. Many blacks on YA are calling for the elimination of whitey. That's pretty darned racist.

What happens if you have an asthma attack while sleeping, and how do you relieve a flare-up?

You should definitely get someone to get your inhaler for you! In the meantime, steam from a warm shower could help your airways some. You still need the inhaler though so you don't keep getting worse. I would guess a major flare up would wake you up.

Kind of obscure sci-fi anime series?

I believe the series you are looking for is Shingu: Secret of the Stellar Wars. The series was licensed by Right Stuf but the FUNimation Channel acquired the broadcasting rights from the series.

Can you live a fullfilling life without love even if you need it more than most?

ok im 35 years old finally figured out that i am just the worst possible partner a girl could have. all of my relationships have failed miserably and this last one has finally got me to take an honest look at myself, and what i realized is that with all my past relationships i have made excuses as to why why they havent worked out instead of just being honest about it... i have nothing that women want period! the problem is that i have desperately wanted to be that perfect guy every time because i fall so hard in love. i am so insecure about not being perfect that when i fall in love i just fall deeper and deeper into an existence of anxiety about how every other guy is better than me and more suitable for my woman that i cant understand why she is with me. this time i got married and had a kid though so its something completely different. i cant just wallow in misery and be pathetic i have to make sure i will be able to provide for this kid for the next 18 years. my wife (soon to be ex) is so completely competent in every way and will have no problem moving on, as a matter of fact already has... god just writing this makes me feel pathetic but whatever if theres anywhere i can show how low i can get it should be on yahoo answers in complete anonynimity. anyway she started seeing this guy who is a big hollywood producer/actor and will be starring in a big film soon as well, and there is nothing i can do to stop it.. i mean what am i gonna do go OJ on them im too rational to spend the rest of my life in prison because of this mess. shes somewhat of a goldigger (stripper) and i knew this when i met her but bc im a ******* pathetic sentimental loser i blinded myself to this fact on purpose in my everlasting quest to destroy myself over and over again. this time i actually contemplated suicide im just so ******* depressed i cant pull myself together. anyway i dont know how many people are as pathetic as me out there but i just figure its not really worth trying to have that unconditional love in my life i have strived for all this time with every woman ive ever been with. so is it possible for a sentimental fool like me to realistically put up a wall for the rest of my life and just focus on making money?..never going on a second date, running at the first sign of feelings for ******* ever? after the suicidal **** i figured if its choice between killing myself or living a life with some sort of purpose why not at least go with that? i have been approaching love from the wrong angle every time and i dont think i will ever get it right, and whats more it destroys any strengths i have in other aspects of my life and they go to **** further perpetuating the reason that the girl shouldnt be with me. i know that when i start getting my **** together again women will start to be attaracted to me once again, because they just love that confidence that men exude when things are going well for them. but if i let another one in i will lose everything once again and no woman will be attracted to me anyways including the one that would be with me because when your a pathetic loser you completely repell women with your depressed lame attitude. so whats the deal? anyone ever felt this way and just shut themselves out of any possibility of being in a meaningful relationship out of fear of becoming this way? has life for you been a success since you made this decision?

Is this OK for a burial scene?

What's the word I'm thinking of?

Ok, firstly this isn't a trick question. There's a reasonably obscure word that means 'relevant to only a specific audience', and I can't for the life of me remember what it is. As I said, I seem to remember it being quite an unusual word so bear that in mind before answering. Any ideas?

Do you want to know the cost of the entire Arsenal squad of 07/08...?

That was a lot of FUN and a big eye opener!, i would love to know how much Man CIty squad costs could you tell me?

Why do women perpetuate the lie that it doesn't matter if a guy is losing his hair?

Look at it the other way round. Why do you think the plastic surgery industry is so vast? - because men and women are just as superficial as each other. I'm sure men have 'flaked out' on women who have had the wrong size boobs, the wrong shaped legs, or simply not been thin enough.

Deism - what are your views?

I just call it Dism for short. As an agnostic I believe it is the only rational view, accepting that the fragmented organized religions of today spawn many negative feelings, and science is just too cold in its view of what we are, and if there is any meaning to life.

You need to seek appropriate medical advice and not limit your answer to speculation by untrained individuals.

Are Americans taught that they won the 1812 war in school?

I keep hearing Americans perpetuating the myth that they won the 1812 war, and I was just wondering if this was a result of their education.

Why are public-schooled Liberals so jealous of the fact that I was home-schooled?

I'm going to go out on a limb and say liberals home school more than conservatives, although the deep south might have enough enough crazy christian home schoolers to give liberals a run for their money. I think we all know that is more indoctrination than education though.

I want to believe in something, but i dont know what?

I think you just need to explore all religions and decide if there is anything you think would work for you. If not, maybe it's not religion you're looking for, but fulfillment in some other form. If you are depressed, look into exercise, yoga, counseling, or possibly medication. They may help you to have a more positive outlook on life.

Can someone please reword this for me?

Your question needs only a few changes. Put "a" between "that" and "neutral." A neutral stand on race with racial issues or problems. "Racial imbalance" means races would not have the same number of people, which is not what I think you mean. My suggestion: Write an essay in which you support, refute or qualify the claim that a neutral stand on racial issues perpetuates racial discrimination. You could substitute "bias," "inequality" or "injustice" for "discrimination."

Prozac and oxetine what is the difference?

I have been prescribed oxetine for panic attacks/obsessive compulsive syndrome. The chemist says it is the same as prozac as they both contain fluoxetine as the main ingredient, but Oxetine is a lot cheaper. Can anyone tell me if they are actually the same or would I be better off on prozac
