Open Question: A friend of mine in my high school was arrested for possession of marijuana?
So a friend of mine in my high school was arrested for possession of marijuana (1 gram) and has signed a paper saying he will appear in court on the specified date. This is hist first offence and he has been a good student his whole life before this (C+ and B average). He isn't so smart but he isn't so stupid either, but he started because a lot of family problems such as family members trying suicide, an unstable home environment etc. I have talked to him and he is very worried he will be put under oath and asked who he bought it from. He is a Christian and puts God first in his life so he would never lie under oath. However he is not a snitch either, he could of wiped himself clean probably if he snitched at the beginning but he never snitched and is now going to court.
I feel very bad for him since he is a very close friend of mine, we became friends when we were like 6 and we are already well in our way through high school and I fully understand why he started smoking it to begin with. He is a Christian but pot is something he never viewed as a drug. He has been offered other drugs but has always said no to them except for pot, he doesn't even smoke cigarettes.
So here are the questions.
1. Will he be put under oath?
2. Will he be asked who he bought it from, and if yes does he have a right to remain silent when asked the question, or is there some way he could get out of answering the question?
3. What are some possible (realistic) punishments for his actions, will he be sent to Juvinial Hall, will he be sentenced to a certain amount of community service?
PS: We both live in BC in case different provinces have different policies. (Canada)
Open Question: I'm starting to pee my pants again?!?
Hi there, I don't mean to be gross, but this is a medical question. I'm 20 years old and over the past two days, I've been having accidents.
It's not that my bladder is too full or anything, it's just that a little bit (3 or 4 drops) is leaving my body when I laugh, bend over, or pick up something heavy.
I understand that these are all actions that put pressure on my bladder, but I never have to pee when it happens.
It has happened 3 times so far and it's really uncomfortable considering today I was an hour away from home when it happened.
My question is; does this happen to anyone else? is it normal? and should I see my doctor about it?
Thanks and fyi- don't leave rude or crude comments, because I don't care what you have to say I'm looking for serious, backed-up information that will help me!!
Open Question: Would the founding fathers be ashamed of our country today?
some of the founding fathers of our country like george washington, thomas jefferson, and alexander hamilton preached that this country should be a free market, capitalist country that follows the constititution and should have a non intervention foreign policy. today is the OPPOSITE of that.
1. George Washington(foreign policy)- george washington was probably the biggest supporter of a non-intervention foreign policy. while jefferson and hamilton were debating to support britain or france, washington remained neutral and chose NOT to intervene. As he left office he read his farewell address(which is great) and he mostly said that the interests and conflicts in the rest of the world does not concern the interests of the U.S. he warned against getting involved in other country's affairs and against alliances. and hes right because alliances can destroy a nation's soverignty and he said that the U.S. can remain neutral because "our greatest ally is the atlantic ocean". Today we are in NATO, UN, we have bases in germany, japan, and south korea, and are policies in the mid east are the wrong policies. we should be going after terrorists and destroying terror NOT nation building and policing the world like we are doing. Washington would not like this at all.
2.Thomas Jefferson(power of the feds)
ik that jefferson may have gone beyond his own power during his presidency but he was all about for most of his life folllowing the constitution and leaving many rights to the states. The feds should only have the power for trading, tarriffs, own currency, war, treaties, and dispute between states. today the feds have control over income tax(IRS is stupid and the feds should be funding on budget cuts, excise taxes, and tarrifs), EDUCATION, and even abortion and potentially gay marriage. The feds cant go beyond their power like this!
3. Alexander Hamilton(economy)
when hamilton was the first treasury secetary, he preached and had set up a capitalist, free market economy where the people run it(especially the wealthy), competition is strong, and the upper class is on top of all this by competing with each other for profit and revenue and creating jobs for poeple. TODAY, we have a nearly socialist economy where the governement is starting to own businesses and are getting involved in the market world where their actions are decreasing competition. sharing wealth, tax burden on wealth,Bailout plan and potential healthcare plan are prime examples.
DO you agree??
i know that the world has changed but our greatest allies are the oceans. if we better secure countries then its more possible to have a non intervention foreign policy and we dont have to have alliances. alliances just prove to haunt you. also capitalism is the best type of system and socialism is a system that the U.S. is NOT meant to have and its an unfair system that doesnt work. also y do the feds have to have so much power???
listen to ron paul, he knows his stuff
feds shouldnt have control over education, its a state issue
also providing healthcare will decrease the competition for healthcare in the market and whenever you have a monopoly of something which is what the governement providing healthcare is, then thats not good

Open Question: What to do with hair[pic. included. sorry for re-asking]?
*Sorry for re-asking this question but forgot to add something..pretty much what I REALLY didn't want was what everyone suggested.
Hi everyone. I was trying to fix my hair today because the poof gets messed up a lot during the day, and I had to take my bangs down for a little bit to fix it lol. But all of these people were like Oh wow you should keep your hair down like that! I'm like..Eh..lol. I'm not sure which hairstyle looks nicer. Either way,I'm getting kinda bored with this hairstyle. I don't like bangs[the ones that go like pin-straight, they make my face look fat], and I'm not allowed to have it dyed/highlighted/whatever else hah. Besides that, the only thing I'm really objecting is short hairstyles. I hate them on me lol. They make me look very very VERY young[like 8 XD].So no haircuts above shoulder lol. I also hateee curling my hair. It looks disgustingly horrible on me :[. Really. Lol. Plus, I just hounded my parents for a really expensive hair STRAIGHTENER, so they would be pretty mad if I started wanting curlers etc.
Here's how it looks now[don't make fun of my ugliness please lol XD]:
(This is how it usually looks,it's usually more straight, but today it got kinda wavy again from the weather lol): http://s236.photobucket.com/albums/ff40/BindyMindy/Me/?action=view¤t=image200910300021.jpg&newest=1
This is how it looks when it's down: http://s236.photobucket.com/albums/ff40/BindyMindy/Me/?action=view¤t=image200910300026.jpg&newest=1
What should I do with my hair, and which one of the two above looks better? Thanks everyone :] lol.
[Again, so sorry for the re-post lol].
What do you mean by dark-end it? I can't dye or highlight my hair if that's what you mean :[.

I'm 16 years old. it may sound like a typical teenager love tragedy but i'm for real on this one.
i had a boyfriend, we we're going really good. and i had a friend who's got this guy friend. and all our friends think they're gonna end up going out. so i added him, so i can "check him out". so of course he adds me.. and we start talking. i have a boyfriend during the time. and everything is going good. to my surprise we have so much in common! we seem to have like the same sense of humor. this was on myspace comments. he's such a sweet guy and everything. then we moved on to texting. and again i still had my boyfriend on the other hand. now i dont tell my boyfriend we're texting. because my boyfriend was on of those guys that are way to over protective. and would want to beat up any guy i talk to? so we were talking. texting, having so much in common. it was like my jaw hurt so much from smiling. and i accidently called him, by ACCIDENTAL. then we started talking. usually being on the phone with someone so new, i would feel so shy. i would be really quiet. our conversation goes by so well, we had so many things to talk about. after the phone, it really made me think, "wow we have so much in common." we started texting after. and it went around towards 11PM, i told my boyfriend i was going to sleep. so he went to sleep too. but me and the other dude was still texting. we made lots of plans, playing little games and such. then things started to get like real down, we we're flirting. i fell asleep talking to him on text messages. the next morning we tried super hard to see eachother at school but it didnt happen. he went on the stage at lunch hoping i would come up to him and stuff but i'm really shy so i didnt do anything. so we were talking on the phone, and again my boyfriend was at a party. and this guy started telling me the sweetest things.. he told me his deepest darkest secrets that he's kept alive. and i did the same thing i told him my secrets. he told me things like, he wasnt afraid to talk to me. he told me that he loved talking to me, he told me talking to me is just like talking to him because we were so much alike. he told me that i'm the first girl that pinned him down so fast.. i really started to like him. my boyfriend then got home and went to sleep. things went really good.. i started really thinking about him, i do like him? i couldnt control my feelings. we were asking about love, he said "I know when i start to love somebody, and it happens rarely." and he told me, "I love you" for the first time. it was really overwhelming. i was completely sprung off of him. we were talking to like 4 in the morning considering we had school in 2 hrs. He told me so much, and i told him so much. he told me i was special, because of my actions. he told me, the littlest things i do, the things that make me cry make me so special and make him like me a lot. i believed him, and he told me that he's going to like me very much. the next day in the morning it went good. until lunch time we saw eachtoher . after lunch thats when everything started going bad. we fixed everything then talked on the phone again. we told eachother what happened and we fixed things it was like things didnt really change. but it wasnt like the first night when we were on the phone.. i almost cried telling him how worried i was. next thing i know.. he askes this other girl to homecoming. this girl i didnt really like.. i was like wow? and everytime i text him it was really broad. he was short worded. i didnt know what was going on with him? i didnt know what was wrong.. we stopped talking to eachother completely. we dont even say hi. im kinda getting over it.. oh and me and my boyfriend took a break right during our first phone conversation. so i wouldnt feel any more bad for being sprung off this dude. im still trying to get over it.. but i dont understand what happened. neither do i have a chance to ask.. he wont talk to me. i catch him looking at me sometimes, but that doesnt change anything. i feel like an idiot, i feel like i got played. such a fool of me to think what i thought. any related stories, or any ideas on this guys actions? im so curious, i was hurt during this time. i appreciate no mean anwsers. im 16 and ready for an explanation.
Open Question: How to be friends when there is strong attraction?
I have this strange problem with my boss. I know he fancies me. He has made it apparent through his actions several times. This is after he already has a girlfriend.
Now, I also like him. He has never said anything to me because I don't respond to his advances. But, I do like him. Infact, a lot.
That's why I try to stay away from him as much as possible. But, I don't want it to be that way. I am a friendly person and I like to give people importance. Now, whenever i get friendly with him, he starts coming around me a lot. Which bothers me because I would never like him to know my feelings towards him.
Do you think that it's possible for me to know him normally like i know other people at work? Or sex will always come in our way?
please help. It's difficult to ignore someone when you would rather like to enjoy their company.
thanks

Thinking life would suddenly get better

and brings guilt later
The world is a tangled web

Start with yourself and build up from there
Make it better for our kids days,
So it's not as bad as this
Will the world ever untangle the web?

Open Question: Is my paragraph good enough?
My question for the essay is: How does Shakespeare use dramatic devices in Act 3 Scene 1 of Romeo and Juliet in order to make it such an interesting, exciting and important scene?
My point I need to cover in the 1st paragraph is:
The methods Shakespeare uses to create mood and atmosphere at the start of the scene – How and Why he uses dramatic devices to interest, involve and affect the audience. (Character and language)
This is my paragraph but I don't know how to make it better because I'm sure it's not good enough for an A* :
The mood and atmosphere of the beginning of the scene is packed with action which contrasts to the previous scene of romance where the love was shown between Romeo and Juliet. Mercutio and Benvolio start the play of in mid-conversation which creates an interest to the audience. Benvolio has been used as a narrator, “We talk here in the public haunt of men”, and this involves the audience. The narrating informs the audience and Shakespeare has intentionally created this verse to create importance as well as an impact.

In reality, she will land on a waiting airbag. Lights! Camera! Action! The primary camera crew, filming from her starting height, hears her last-instant scream at a frequency 3.77 kHz. Her scream has a frequency of 4.05 kHz when she is at rest. How far did she fall? Report this as a positive distance.
so here i figured out how to get the velocity at which she is screaming, but i do not know how to go from velocity to distance with the information given

Open Question: How will i know if i am defaulted by my bank?
I did a very stupid mistake gave my bank card to my bf last year when i was going on holidays, the reason of giving him the bank card was so he can put my salary in my account which he normally use to do, we were together for 7 years and obviously i trusted him on this. But that basturd left me and used all the money from my account when i was away including the overdraft limit and left me with £4000 charges on my account. When i came back i was obviously devastated and i wasnt even aware of that till the bank manager called me and warned to pay all the money but i told him that i dint used the card but obviously he didnt trusted me. But i didnt bothered and left the account as it was. Now i dont have a bank account and using my sister to put my salary in, what a shame. all this happened last year but i never recieved any letter from the bank and dont know whether they have defaulted me or not, how can i find that out and how about if i talk to my bank and agree on paying the monthly sum to remove those charges will the bank agree on that or they wll arrest me if i go to the bank on the basis that i ran away.. its almost a year now, can some one please advice me on this that what can be done, if i start paying the monthly charges will the bank allow me to use the account as normal, i wanted to go to the bank to ask them but i am so scared what actions will they take and might arrest me or something.
Open Question: High School Sweetheart?
Long story short, my ex (girl) and I dated on and off for about 6yrs, it wasn't until the last 4yrs of our relationship that we really started to get real serious. We talked about our future and we were even close to moving in together. One night we had a real bad argument before she was went on vacation with her family(she was gone about a month) and things got a little got pretty heated. I said some things out of anger and acted on them and walked out that door. The next morning before she left, she drop off everything i ever gave her (letters,cards,pics,teddy bears,promise ring, etc) At first i was upset and disappointed with her decision, so i didn't talk to her for 2 months until she called me to see if she can pick up some of her stuff she left at my house (few clothes, books,pics,etc) When i saw her eyes that night it hit me how much i missed her and how much I still cared about her. we had a long conversation and she told me how much she hated me for putting her thru so much pain. I apologize and told her that instead of me just telling her how much she means to me I would show her. Of course we still kept in touch (texting, e-mail, a few favors, etc) In took me 7 months, but i finally got her the engagement ring (vintage style) she always wanted. The day that i propose to her she didn't give an answer after i told her how she means the world to me and that i wouldn't picture my life with no other but her. She started to cry and said how come i waited so long to do this.I explain my actions and during the time we both were living our lives, (school, work,) and she eventually met somebody younger (5yrs) than her. She told me she's been dating this guy a few months and she knows its moving to fast for her. She told me a few months doesn't compare to 10yrs of history we had, but that she needed time to think about it really hard. She said the whole time we were apart she taught i moved on, so she had to do the same. Now i can't stand the fact of her being with another guy while i sit back and wait for an answer. What should I do? i feel like Im going crazy for this girl and its affecting me bad. I want to take initiative of the situation, but i just don't know how? It's been about a week and we still talk but should i just wait, or walk away from something i worked hard to make work. I don't know if there is anything i can do to show her what she means to me. I feel i did everything. HELP!!
Open Question: Shillington confirmed to play?
Are you happy with this. At first I was surprised he was selected in the train on squad, but soon after I liked the idea of him being there, he really is a special player thats booming with potential and deserves his spot in the team. Now we have 4 natural props, two big aggressive backrowers starting with the worlds best defender in the middle of the action and two talented versatile players from the bench, couldn't be happier with this team to take on the Poms, much better than last weekend.
Open Question: Why are some people SO SURE that anyone who has more money than them HAS to have stolen it?
80% of the millionaires in this country are first-generation, self-made millionaires. That means they started a business or invented something or invested their money wisely. What is it with you people?? Why are you so sure that anyone with more than you HAS to have stolen it? Because YOU couldn't get it any other way? Well, some people do actually work hard and save and earn their money honestly. I actually feel bad for someone who cannot fathom that. What a cynical, sad person they must be.
When did success suddenly become a crime? You judge the many by the actions of a few and that is not fair. Yet you are often the same people who scream out in protest against racism, gender discrimination and other "generalized" types of bias. Does that make sense to anyone else?
Oh, and by the way? In no way, shape or form could I be considered even middle-class in America. I am poor. But I don't hold it against someone if they have more than me and I don't think it's their fault that I don't have what they do.
Mike: Because I'm tired of seeing and hearing the same thing over and over and over. "The rich are bad! The rich are bad! The rich are bad!" Yet mostly all they are ever accused of is living better! That's ridiculous! Demonizing the rich doesn't make poor people less poor. It just makes the poor more angry.
Plutocrat: What a great idea!! And with all the thieving rich people gone, who will give the poor people jobs? The thieving government? Lol.

Open Question: the title show generalization or not?
just read it and give your opinion about the topic, i read on the other website about it and i am confuse about two forumer who is right between them
one forumer
HER TITLE IS WHY FOREIGNER THINK THAT FILIPINA JUST ONLY WANT THEIR MONEY
Hello guys I just encounter young canadian man here in internet. He always humiliates Pilipina. Of course as Pilipina I always try to convince him that not all Pilipina are the same. We created differently..
October 4
I didn't generalize but base on my observation most of the foreigner think that Filipinas only want money, maybe you are not belong to them.
October 15
I am pertaining to all foreigner, Canadian, American, British, Australian etc. I did'nt say that all foreigner are same, what I am trying to say is MOST of them think that Pilipina just only want money
October 16
Still we have different views.I never generalize foreigner..As I said most of them but not all it means there still few left..There still few foreigner who believe and respect Pinay. I know some of you will make oppose for what ever i say in this forum..
October 23
From the start before all of you commented on this topic I already said that we (People) created differently (that is why I never generalize all people). Yes I is different to Canadian all of us has a unique character. We can’t place ourselves on one job, can you imagine the world where everyone was President, oh gosh…Even every appearance have variations we have black and white, small and tall, fat and slim and etc. If we are all the same its too difficult to distinguish who is Pedro or Juan or I can say that I am Juan or Pedro lol even our outlook on life is varied depending on the experiences that we encounter, that is why we have different opinions. God gives us the freedom or freewill to choose which we think is best for us.
Imagine hughzeh how many times do I have to tell you that I never generalize people, how many time I explain to you that we are different from each other yet you still insist your belief that I generalize people.. sigh. But you even questioning the title of the tread…Ok I will give you simple example…How bout the story of sleeping beauty lol…Look at the title SLEEPING BEAUTY. The word sleep but it not necessarily mean that all the scenario aurora just sleep, other example is the SOUND OF MUSIC, the movie of sound of music not all events the character sing a songs.. So the title of this thread not pertaining to ONE action of ALL FOREIGNER because we are DIFFERENT. IF SI PEDRO AY MASAMA si PEDRO LANG ANG MASAMA KASI IISANG TAO LANG SYA AT HINDI SYA ANG KABUUAN NG PHILIPPINES O NG IBA PANG BANSA…Sometimes even the title of the story have a HIDDEN MEANING likeThe Green Mile, Rain Man, Dances with Wolves, Catch-22, Hearts in Atlantis, Cool Hand Luke, The Shipping News. GET IT
Kaya nga minsan yung title ay may SUPPORTING DETAIL EH,
other forumer
Yes the word ignorance was appropriate at that moment when I used it; I thoroughly believed that you were quite unaware of what you were implying “Why foreigners think Filipinas only want their money.” which is quite naïve in thought.
Well you are a human, probably you will be quite irritated if someone were to point out a flaw in your machinations, but if I desired to irritate you I would have done so already and laid waste to your topic and I seek no prisoners in doing so, as I seek to bring out the worst qualities of good humans as to what extent the principles they apply to themselves may hold true, but since I believe your are simply uninformed I tried to see to it that at least you will see the flaws in your assumptions, and I’ve seen you’re awareness on this though I doubt or I am not entirely sure that you have accepted such a notion.
Humans.it seems…
Though I really don’t know what the point of your reply, to me it simply states your viewpoint towards me, that I insulted you and I shouldn’t be doing such a thing, and analyzing my motives for doing so…
IS HER TITLE GENERALIZING FOREIGNER?
Resolved Question: Can anyone revise this and make it better? if you want to elaborate on it thats cool too?
The Healthcare Reform Bill that we are faced with right now, in spite of what some individuals mistakably believe, is exactly what the US has hungered for throughout these antecedent years. We are offered the chance to redeem ourselves and create better overall coverage for individuals who seek their health. I would like to put the proposed bill into action and have the changes started right away.
The United States of America is in desperate need of reliable health care. America as a whole needs the type of health care that will help a person despite pre-existing conditions, or petty attempts to deny a person their health. The People of the United States have long forgotten the dream of how the nation’s people could thrive if they were provided with the proper health care. Health care in this nation of ours has been on a steady decline since the 1930’s and has been viewed as a crisis situation since the 1970’s. The blame, despite the constant finger pointed at insurance companies, falls on us, the Americans. In the past, president administrations such as Harry S. Truman’s, Richard M. Nixon’s, and George Bush’s have all proposed plans similar to the one being proposed in the present day. The plan that Truman compiled was fervently rejected by the American Medical Association (AMA), and was, in addition called a “Communist Plot” by a House subcommittee. Likewise, the plan for national health insurance that President Richard M. Nixon proposed was rejected by liberals and labor unions. All in all it is our fault for the faulty healthcare we are presently presented with. Before taking any action Americans need to take a step back and view the situation we have thrust ourselves in, thus will begin the inevitable changes we have deprived ourselves of. Clearly the U.S. needs some sort of Healthcare Reform.
If America would simply submit to the currently proposed Health Care Reform bill then all Americans despite their income would be able to get help for their sickness and it will not cost them everything they have worked so hard to achieve and accomplish. Countries that have embraced healthcare as ours are the United Kingdom, Japan, Germany, Taiwan, and Switzerland. Here is a closer look at three of the capitalist democracies in the world. The United Kingdom’s plan is perhaps the most appealing. The percentage of Gross Domestic Product or GDP that is spent on healthcare is 8.3. The average family premium is none; it is wholly funded by taxation. The co-payments virtually do not exist, although there is some required pay for dental care five percent of prescriptions, and eyeglasses. The Government pays and provides healthcare putting them under a “socialized medicine” system The way it functions is that the citizens pay taxes for the healthcare and the government-run National Health Service (NHS) separates the money and distributes is accordingly to the providers of healthcare. The Doctors for Hospitals are paid a salary and General practitioners otherwise known as GP, who operate their own business; their income is still based upon the number of patients they tend to. While the United Kingdom’s citizens hardly have to pay out of pocket for the work they need done, the other countries that are listed above have some out of pocket money they are forced to pay. Such as Japan, their average family premium is $280 every month, with the employers paying more than half. The Co-payments are 30 percent of the cost of a procedure. Now for the last, Germany has a whopping $750 per month average family premium; premiums are attached to patients' income. Co-payments, however are only 10 euros ($15) every three months; although some patients however, like pregnant women for example, are exempt from the co-payments.
Americans need to view other countries healthcare and view which one provides the most sufficient coverage for the people. We can pick and choose, mold and form, our own system. We shall open our eyes and learn from the mistakes others have done before us; we will do as the Americans have done all along, we will copy everyone else. Only we will do it better.

Open Question: need help withphysics homework?
In a scene in an action movie, a stunt man
jumps from the top of one building to the
top of another building 4.2 m away. After a
running start, he leaps at an angle of 18◦ with
respect to the flat roof while traveling at a
speed of 5.9 m/s.
The acceleration of gravity is 9.81 m/s2 .
To determine if he will make it to the other
roof, which is 1.9 m shorter than the build-
ing from which he jumps, find his vertical
displacement upon reaching the front edge of
the lower building with respect to the taller
building.
Answer in units of m.
Open Question: Effects of Absence without leave. What could be the repercussions?
Im a fresher. Completed my BE this year. I joined an auto company and after two weeks, i really found it hard to cope up. I started getting an aversion towards the company. I approached my senior and said that im leaving as i don't have the mindset to work for this company. He consulted his superior and that guy talked to me for an hour saying he could sort out the problems and stuff like that. Since such a person of high stature is talking to me, i was in a dilemma and reluctantly said i will try again. But next morning i found a lot of bitterness..Going back to the company seemed the most stupid thing.
Now I have stopped going.
The company didn't ask me to sign a bond but just asked me for a notice period of two months in the offer letter. What kind of repercussions would it be having? I was told that a guy with three months experience had also left the company under similar circumstance a month ago. No legal action was taken against him.
P.s: I have a s/w company offer and hopefully they will call me in a month or so.

Open Question: Does he like me or is playing with me?
My friend and I have been friends since we started secondary school (4 years ago). He recently split with his gf about 2 months ago. His last gf was very controlling and wouldn't let him do anything without her. While they were going out I had an argument with my closest friend and went to him for advice. Him and I became alot closer. People began to say that we went out and that we make a gd couple. His gf then told him he was never allowed to see me again, even though we were sat next to each other in every class. I never did anything wid him. Soon he became annoyed with controlling behavour and ask me if he should dump her. I told him it was his dission all I could say was if u no longer like her split up. A week later he dumped her.
Then on he got closer and closer to me. He would be round mine everyday after school. Romours began sayiing we went out. Even mine and his friends said he liked me. So when the local fair arrived me friends took the chance and got a few close friends to go wid him. That night I started talking to a old friend, Karlton. Karlton had left school a yr before and I hadn't seen him since. But before karlton had left school he told me he really liked me. So that night we swaped numbers and kissed goodbye. Marcus went mental. He was acting like he owned me the rest of the night. Every boy who looked at me even his friends he would give them evils and hold me close. So later on my girls told me to ask marcus out. I did but declined. But marcus carried on acting like he owned me in school.
Last week I went to London for my art GCSE. Marcus didn't go on the trip cuz he don't do art. During the trip him friend aidan was talking to me about him. He said that marcus probably liked me but he was still hurt about dev. When I got back I went to marcus' to pick him upfor school. I said to him "marcus is it ok that I get u in the morning" he said "yh, why?". I said "well everyday I get u at 8 we spend the whole of school together and then after school u come back to mine and stay there till 11. Don't u think were together alot and I'm like dev being with u 24/7." he went all mental saying "kirst u could never be like her, we have fun". Then a few days later an old friend of mine sends me a txt saying "heard u ask marcus out thanx. U knew I liked him but u still ask him out.". After that marcus was acting all werid and it seems like he don't like me anymore. But he turns up at mine yesterday at 9pm. He stays at mine and won't leave. I asked him why he had come over at this late hour. He said "you ask me to come out". Thing is I hadn't spoken to him in 2 days. So last night my dad had to force him to leave at 11:30 cuz he wouldn't go. Dad went mental at me!! I moaned at marcus today about his actions. He said "what wrong wid you, thought you liked my company"
so now I don't know if marcus likes me cuz he has gone all werid even his friends think I've done something to him.
Does marcus like me or is he playing with me?
Open Question: Can changing your skincare products make you break out? Plus General Advice on ALL THINGS SKINCARE - Please ?
Hi
I am currently going through a phase of discovering the world of 'Skin Care'. (Just to let you know, I am a 15yr old teenage girl) who does the whole cleanse - tone - moisturise business, but its kind of difficult to get the products right, kind of going through that 'testing' time-period at the mo.
My Current Skincare routine (depending on how i feel):
Neutrogena Visibly Clear Oil-Free Gel Wash
or
Simple Refreshing Gel Wash
I used to use Neutrogena Deep Clean Gel Wash, but that ran out so used whatever was in the cupboard :)
and I exfoliate 1-2 times a week (normally when i wash my hair) using
Now (this might get confusing)
I started using:
Simple Kind to skin soothing facial toner (alcohol free)
but then i discovered:
Neutrogena Visibly Clear Triple Action Lotion (contains alcohol denat - Bad?)
(which is like a cleanser and toner in 1)
and I thought 'Perfect! for when you cant be bothered to wash your face late at night, and don't wanna use face wipes.
Oh, by the way, I use Boots essentials fragrance free face wipes, only occasionally though.
And for moisturiser I use:
Neutrogena Visibly Clear Oil-Free Moisturiser
and for eye creams I use:
Body Shop Elderflower Un-perfumed Eye Gel (mornings)
and
Body Shop Vitamin C Eye Reviver Cream (night time)
My skin type is definitely combination, have blackheads on my nose area (nose, chin and erm .. inner cheeks - the skin around my nose/under my eye area - not sure what to call it)
My cheeks and forehead are fine
and (a pretty major factor) I DON'T Wear Make-Up(!)
I generally eat healthily, but i do admit, i have been eating more chocolate lately (even though i read that chocolate doesn't actually cause spots/break outs - anyone up for an argument on that while we are at it?) And please, if that fact is wrong, please correct me :)
Is what I am doing ok?
Please just some general advice on skincare, because i feel rather oblivious to everything at the moment.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH
for ALL Contributions :)
I wish you luck in answering this
x
sorry forgot to add - the exfoliating scrub I use is called:
Cyclax Nature Pure Apricot Facial Scrub

Resolved Question: Is it wrong for me to think this way?
I know in Islam we are taught that there's Heaven and Hell. And I know both are mentioned in the Quran and the The Prophet (pbuh) has seen glimpses of them; so they do exist.
But I really don't want anyone to go to Hell. I know there are a lot of bad people in this world, that deserve some punishment, but when I think of someone being in Hell I get really depressed and I feel really bad.I get a really weird, hurt, horrible feeling insideIdk how to explain it.
So then I just say to myself that Allah(swt) won't send anyone to Hell because he is merciful and maybe the bad people can be sent to the lowest level of Heaven and the good can granted the higher levels. So that means the bad people, don't get severely punished, but they don't get rewarded either (which I don't feel upset about). But all this obviously isn't going to be based on what I (me) do or don't feel.
And then sometimes I think maybe Allah(swt) described Hell to get us to be moral and 'behave.' Just how parents say they will punish us if we do bad things, but they never do because their love is (usually) unconditional. (I'm sorry to compare Allah's(swt) action to those of a parents'I just used it to make clear what I was thinking).
And then after thinking all that, I feel as though I am sinning for even thinking that way and I should just accept what Allah(swt) wants. But then I go back to point one and then it just starts messing with my head and so on.
Sooo I don't even know what I'm asking, I would just like your thoughts and views on this.
Thank you =)
Ninja&Ducky: thanks for that reminder, I have read it before and it did help. But how can that be true when no one enters Heaven/Hell until the Day of Judgement?
Open Question: Do people get scared starting relationships?
These ppl are very good, but the person non-verbally flirted. To me he was intimadating me to talk and then i put too much thought into it and got scared. now the family hates me and the dude plus i did the same thing to other men without realizing it. Now I regret my actions of talking first and changing subject.
Plus i don't want to start a new relation because i feel i might hurt the other person.
plus they wanted to impress me but i barely go out.
Serously I feel like dirt and trash for leading guys on.
Open Question: A Poll for all feminists at GWS: are you atheist or religious, & what religious?
If you are atheist,
Do you believe in Charles Darwin "Evolution Of Species" theory?
Do you believe all archeologists finding about early Human Evolution starting from Rift Valley in Africa?
And if you do then the ultimate conclusion is: the Evolutional Pressure of Hunter Gatherer society is pushing the greatest on men to be out smart women, in order to hunt great distance, being emotional stable, more logical, more reasoning, more imagination in order to discover the treacherous males in their great, arduous, dangerous hunting trips, to outsmart the mamut, tiger, lions which are multiply times bigger and stronger than himself.
Do you realize prehistoric men have reach the mental capacity of hunting a mammut, tigers, by even one single MAN?
On the other hand, prehistoric women, the only thing that need to compete for sex is to agree. Sometimes, that isn't EVEN neceesary, the cave men hust help himself. The XX cromosome need not much of a competition to perpetuate its gene. Maybe only, how to remember where the berries is, how to catfight with other for the berries, how to care for kids and nurturing the wounded male back to health such that he could hunt & fight again (which prehistoric medicine knowledge is negligible)
Intelligent is inherited, even along the Y cromosome.
You can't fight Mother Nature force evolved for 150000 years, within a 40 years of feminist movement.
Admitted. No matter how much Affirmiative actions and Gov. help, you ladies can NEVER defeat male strangle hold on intellectual prowess!
nor physical strength!

She was back to her normal rambunctious self with in a day or 2, but she will wake up out of a dead sleep, or stop dead in her tracks because of a very fast flinching jumping like action, throw herself on the floor, and start licking and nibbling at the stitches. Does anyone know why this could be happening, or if there is anything I can do to help her?
Open Question: I need help rekindling an old flame?
Here's the situation. Many years ago when I was in middle school, I met a boy. We became very good friends and within a year, we had seriously fallen for each other. The situation was difficult and complicated. My parents were strict and did not like him. We never got together even though we both really, really liked each other. Fast forward a year, he moved to go to a military school and we couldn't keep in touch. What happened to him that year is unknown to me, but he ended up coming back to my school when high school started. When I first saw him again, I felt the same way that I did in middle school. However, over that summer, he had told me that he didn't love me anymore because he no longer knew me. Once I heard that, I was hurt and foolishly pushed myself to get over him instead of trying to reconnect with him. Most of the time, I tried to ignore him hoping it'd help me forget about him. That didn't work, but we never really got back to being friends, even though it was quite clear to us both that we still had feelings for each other. As young and naive high schoolers, our egos got the best of us and neither of us were willing to be the first to admit anything. In our junior year of high school, he left the school and began a serious relationship with another girl. A few months later, I also got into a serious relationship. We had no closure, we didn't even say goodbye. The last time I saw him was at a funeral and we didn't get to speak to each other.
We are both college students and single now. We have been Facebook friends since high school and over a week ago, he sent me a message asking me to contact him. This is the first time we've spoken in years. We exchanged a few text messages about what happened since we last talked and saw each other before he told me that he would text me back later, but never did. A few days later, he messaged me on Facebook again and told me he missed me a lot and that I should talk to him more often. I messaged him two days later since I go to an intense private university in New Jersey and had midterms so I didn't check my Facebook that day. I told him we should Skype soon, but he never responded. We live far away from each other currently, but when I go back home in a few months, he will only be five minutes from me. I'm almost certain he read that message.
I still love him. My feelings are genuine - I was perfectly content being single and I am not desperate. What do you think his deal is? Should I keep trying to contact him? He hasn't responded and I don't want to push him away by being too insistent, but I also don't want to let this opportunity pass me by. I'm aware that I'm still young and most of this "rekindling" happens decades later. I don't want that, I don't want to go through my life wondering if I made a mistake. I need advice on what to say to him. I might try messaging him again in a week or so. Should I be forward and direct then? Is it possible for us to even be friends again? Is he sincere about reconnecting? I don't see why he wouldn't be, but his words and actions are contradictory. His signals are mixed, as they have always been. Right now, I am not pushing for anything romantic. I just want to be friends and take it slow to see if the spark is still there. We are both older and have mellowed out. I've learned from my past mistakes and I'm not afraid to take the emotional risk of rejection, but I need to know how to do this right.
Resolved Question: What if the teacher admits to making a grading mistake but refuses to change grade?
I go to a private high-school in FL, and they are very strict on the students. But I believe that they pay enough attention to the teachers. I took a Algebra quiz the other day and i got it back today, my grade was %95 and I am very happy for that but then i noticed that she marked wrong a problem, which was done perfectly correctly. So during the class I told her that she made mistake and she said that I will have to come after school to talk about it because she knew that it would start a rebellion since she refuses to change grades because she believes that people would change the answers and lie to her about getting it right. At our school every student had to sign a contract that said that you would not cheat and so on, plus we have to write on every paper to be turned in " I abide by the(my school name) honor code" and sign it. So by me signing it i had signed to that legal contract I had said that I did not cheat, and she cant say that other people had cheated before so I can not have my grade changed as a consequence to other people's actions. So I come after school and I find 4 people that have come for the same exact problem, they were doing a horrible job at debating with her. So I started to talk. I told the teacher that i have signed the contract so she can not do this without proving that I have cheated, because in america we are innocent until we are proven guilty, then i said that i should not pay for her mistakes such as her reading the answer wrong. Then i added, that if she could not see or read because of her age (54) she can not physically do her job to its requirements and does not deserve it when there are hundreds of better teachers that apply everyday at our school that can be better than her. Then she said to get out my lawyer!!, after that everybody left thinking that I was right and she was a total b***h. What can I do now to get the grade that I deserve and have studied hard for?
PS: i said all that stuff as nicely as possible

Open Question: Explain how perceptions and characteristics of geographic regions in the US have changed over time regarding:?
*Wilderness
*Farmland
*Urban areas
*Centers of Industry and Technology
I asked this question a little while ago and no one seemed to know the answer.
Well I came up with these answers:
Wilderness: With the expansions of housing needs - many areas of wilderness have been being used to build homes and less money is available to keep up and maintain wilderness areas.
Farmland: With the spread of non-farm residents across the country and land use being diversified, farmland and related habitats become fragmented. Most of the farmland changes occurred between 1964 and 1974, partly as a result of farmland loss from recurring farm crises. Between the 1960s and late 1970s farm crises stimulated protests like the "holding actions" of the NFO (National Farmers Organization) in 1967 and the "tractor Cade" in Washington D.C. started by the AAM (American Agriculture Movement) in the late 1970s. In the 1970s expanding urban areas on the east and west coasts, were disrupting agriculture and raising concerns about negative environmental impacts of low density development. Development patterns that showed up in the 1970s made geographically sweeping metropolises surrounding a wide variety of land use.
Between 1950 and 1993, metropolitan areas with populations over one million grew five-fold, smaller metropolitan areas more than doubled and non-adjacent nonmetro areas declined by half. Meaning, the largest metropolitan areas had the highest rates of farmland change, with decrease rates almost four times greater than in nonmetro non-adjacent areas. Most of the lowest rates of decline are found in three Central and the Mountain Census Divisions.
All of the regions of the US experienced farmland decreases between 1949 and 2002, but the greatest decreases occurred in the New England and South Atlantic Census Divisions. In 1949 farmland made up most of the land in each county category, but by 2002 farmland as a proportion of total land in the largest metropolitan areas was half that in nonmetro non-adjacent ones. Farmland in the US has declined over the past fifty years, from 1,151 million acres in 1949 to 921 million acres in 2002. Areas east of the Mississippi River display some of the most changes during this period. The most changes occurred in the "Old South," Southeast Piedmont, Ozark, Ouachita Plateau, Ohio Valley, New England, and the northern reaches of Michigan, Wisconsin and Minnesota. A lot of the changes are also found in the far west, but the areas with the most change are more scattered than they are in the east. An area of focused farmland decrease in the west is the Seattle Metropolitan area. The least changes happened across the great American heartland of the Midwest and the Great Plains. Within the changes between 1949 and 2002, the rate of change for shorter time periods within this span varied considerably. This variation shows the changing fortunes of the volatile farm economy.
Metropolitan areas increasingly included growths of agricultural, forested or undeveloped land between residents and groups of industries. This type of development has been called "leap frog" development or "rural/urban fringe" because it leaks a smooth or constant land loss pattern. Metropolitan growth also created markets for local farm produce and prompted the growth of roadside stands and farmers' markets in the 1980s and 1990s. Metropolitan farms tend to work on smaller lands and specialize in horticulture. High-value
The post-WWII economy made numerous job opportunities for farmers who increasingly shunned agriculture or don't farm marginal lands. In previous analyses, the most important factor accounting for variation in farmland has been the decrease in the number of farms, a strongly formed effect across all models fitted. Farm viability is strongly controlled by macroeconomic conditions, and these results suggest that such factors are most important in accounting for farmland change, and that farm protection efforts need to be tailored to specific historical and local conditions. These findings are consistent with other analyses that call for more attention to farm economics. They also suggest that farm preservation efforts which don't address farm economic viability are likely to fail.
Policies should be designed to help farmers take advantage of many income earning opportunities. These opportunities are more abundant in metropolitan areas and include the sake of products and services that cater to the urban population. Population growth has both opportunities and constraints for agriculture. With careful local planning, however, population growth can be channeled in ways that buffer farmland and create additional economic opportunities for farm enterprises. This approach holds promise, but specific alternatives need to be evaluated to determine where and when they might be most appropriate and effective.
Urban areas: Urban areas are becoming more crowded and are spreading
