Should people get tax breaks for ';sex change';?

';The U.S. Tax Court ruled Tuesday that a Massachusetts woman should be allowed to deduct the costs of her sex-change operation, a decision that could have broad implications for trans-gender people.



Rhiannon O’Donnabhain (oh-DON’-oh-vin), who was born a man, sued the Internal Revenue Service after the agency rejected a $5,000 deduction for approximately $25,000 in medical expenses associated with the sex-change surgery.



The IRS said the surgery was cosmetic and not medically necessary.



In its decision Tuesday, the tax court said the IRS position was “at best a superficial characterization of the circumstances” that is “thoroughly rebutted by the medical evidence.”



The legal group Gay %26amp; Lesbian Advocates %26amp; Defenders, which represented O’Donnabhain, said the ruling could potentially affect thousands of people a year in the U.S. who undergo similar operations.';



-AP Story



Mentally ill people have been known to think they are a lot of crazy things. Birds, Dogs, Cats, etc. How crazy is it to encourage them to mutilate their bodies this way.







Little girls are put through pure torture with their genitalia being mutilated in many Islamic cultures. What next, are we going to allow that in the U.S. (and give tax breaks for it?'; Heaven help us!Should people get tax breaks for ';sex change';?
NO WAY It is not MEDICALLY necessary. THen ALL people who change thier body because of body issues should get a tax ride off too. This is ridiculous. Where do gay and transgendered people think they are above others with problems or somehow they are on a different plane of existence. I am horrified how many people rights are being offended by this. SO if a person needs to have surgery in order to have good body image and feel ';whole'; or ';correct'; they can not have the same deduction?



YOu will see. The gay and transgendered movement will continue to squash our rights by making themselves ';special'; in the laws eyes.Should people get tax breaks for ';sex change';?
I'd love to see GLAD explain where they got their ';thousands of people a year in the US who undergo similiar operations'; stat. Does anyone really believe that? Fuzzy math at best.
why not? we just wiped out thousands of innocent kids over in irock, remember bypal india ? we wiped out thousands of families over there,, so why cant we help our own people?
No, I don′t think they should.
HELL NO!!!

  • Question on the constitution (more clear)?

    Our constitution says nothing about the people paying taxes to the government.



    So my question is: Is it possible to live without paying taxes. (according to the constitution, it should be possible).



    If so, why do we still pay taxes? - (when we don't want to, because I know some people do want to)









    OK, so your saying a bunch of people got together (government), and decided that everyone is going to pay them taxes, and they decide how they want to spend that money?



    We work, we use our time, and we cant keep our money?

    I seriously don't see how this could be fair.



    I'm glad I don't have to do taxes, but doing them seems just unreasonable.



    Same with health care.



    Say, some person is drinking and having sex with everyone, and spreads disease, and uses drugs, and does dangerous things. They want to use my money to provide health care for them?



    If I don't take care of my car: don't give it maintenance, no oil changes, no break changes, no aliments, not car washes, and I drive like I want, and go crazy on the roads. Should the government pay to fix my car? Lets have the government pay (with our taxes) for all the car repairs also, Hmmm?



    The same thing with everything else. Why does the governments try to get itself involved with everything in a persons life?



    I believe a country ought to have government for protection. Not for dictation of their lives. Even though its not a dictatorship.



    I don't see how this is fair. Why can't we just pay the amount when we need to for our problem. Why does this go in with taxes?



    With this going on it makes me think that the group in charge of taxes could be doing even better than the time of the slaves.



    Think about it. We work all day, have just enough money to pay our rent, our health care, our bills, our mortgage, our food. And we pay the rest for the government taxes.



    this does not sound like freedom to me!





    They want to have a license for me to get property, they want me to get a license to get a house on my property, they want a license for me to cut down a tree on my property, they want a license for me to get married, to have kids, to do everything in this country.



    What happened to this country being the home of the free?



    We are not free to do anything without the governments permission.



    I'm only 16, and don't have a job yet, and thinking about this does not make me appreciate our country.Question on the constitution (more clear)?
    16th amendment and it sucks. time to repeal it.Question on the constitution (more clear)?
    Article I of the constitution says that all tax legislation begins in the House of Reps.



    The 16th Amendment specifically authorizes the income tax.



    It's all about living in society, honey.

    Everyone contributes for everyone's benefit.



    If you don't like it, then don't use the police, fire dept., EMS, sidewalks, schools, street lights, parks, libraries, clean air, clean water, safe food, hospitals, streets, interstate highways, safe cars, school lunches, and everything else that we TAXPAYERS pay for.



    Yes, your school lunches.

    Even if you think you pay ';full price';, that only covers HALF the cost of producing and distributing the meal.

    The TAXPAYERS pick up the rest of the bill.



    Shut up.

    Grow up,

    Learn something.
    Income Tax was introduced to fund the Civil War. The Socialist Labor Union escalated the situation. Unfortunately, whenever a tax is created - it is rarely removed or decreased. I remember when the tolls booths (at one location) were erected on the Kennedy Expressway here in Chicago. the plan was....it would only be there long enough to collect enaough tolls to pay for the expressway - and then it would be removed.



    long after the construction was paid for, not only did they not remove the booths, they added 4 more. It's the greed and corruption in Government. they see a money source to start funding different - personal and pet projects - and suck us dry.
    Sorry, it all has to do with the legality of the 16th ammendment to the constitution.
    Taxes pay people like Pelosi. My problem with it is this. If you own a business, you make a certain amount of money and your employees considerably less. The US is a business, of which we are all owners and the elected officials work for us. How the hell is it that we are stupid enough to pay them more than we make ourselves??? I am a cop and make about 32000 a year. Pelosi gets 147000 from us. Why does she need more than me to live? If you dont pay taxes, she will be on you like Raid on a cockroach.

    How to deal with ex-boyfriend changing after break-up?

    Ex-boyfriend and I were together for several years. After a hideous breakup, moving on and getting married to other people, we decided to become friends a couple years later.



    Can you explain: why is it that all the things I wanted him to change (smoking, drinking habits, getting a better job, going on more vacations instead of working so much) - he did AFTER he met his new wife?



    I am happily married, and have no wish to go back to that - so it isn't a ';I want him back'; scenario. Just some insight as to why...



    I am not asking for personal criticisms - but why is it that sometimes you try to wish change upon a person, to make him a healthier, happier person - so that when you finally give up - they change for the better, when they are no longer with you??



    Some insights?How to deal with ex-boyfriend changing after break-up?
    Maybe he did these things after you broke up cos he probably realised what you were saying was true.



    At least u didn't have to put up with him when he was changing that could have been bad 4 u! Glad ur happy now!

    Fiancee suddenly changed and broke up with me ... is it just anxiety?

    Beautiful relationship of three years. Engaged on NYE. Girlfriend / Fiancee was all excited and lovey dovey up until yesterday. Two days ago she is on the phone with my mother and then me with her mother talking about our wedding, etc. We have been together a long time and she was planning to move to my town to be with me next month. Literally overnight she does a 180 and abruptly breaks up with me saying she is too young and doesnt have enough life experience, etc .... Keep in mind not new issues and she has been the one pushing marriage. Now I guess I am single all of a sudden? WTF? Is this kind of anxiety / cold feet normal and is she going to snap out of it or are we really broken up? Her entire family is pissed at her and on my side. But she is stubborn and I guess now not only doesn't want to be engaged but also doesn't want to be in this relationship. I am shell shocked and embarrassed. And confused as hell. Seriously 24 hours earlier she was going on and on about how excited and in love she was etc ... And I'm not sure what to do.Fiancee suddenly changed and broke up with me ... is it just anxiety?
    I think all you can do now is wait...but almost always when people make extreme decisionslike that they are not real. It will work out :)Fiancee suddenly changed and broke up with me ... is it just anxiety?
    If you are sub 23 don't get married. You are both too young.
    Yeah sounds like anxiety to me, she must not be ready. Better this happens now than a divorce down the road.
    It happens alot; especially around our age. I feel bad cause I did the same thing to my bf right after military boot camp. However; our relationship did have alot of problems that would have surely made it to divorce if I was there. But alot of the reason was I had only been in this one relationship for 4 years and thought ';if i get married; my life is over';. I didnt like the pressure. The idea that at 22 yrs old the fun of going out might stop before it needed to.



    She might just need time to rethink things. She might come around; and if she does she might just want to be in a relationship...but since shes pissed off your family...she has alot of explaining or good to make up in order to get accepted in the family again.



    sorry about your situation. i was also dumped today.
    She was going to have to move to your town.That could be a very big deal. That bit of information makes me think she got scared. It's possible she is panicking as the reality of what she was about to do set in. Having cold feet may be common, but that doesn't mean it's not a serous matter.

    You need to camp out on her doorstep until she gives you a better explanation. You deserve it! If you really get to the bottom of the matter, you just might find that it is something ridiculous like fear of moving to a new location.

  • I have an Amana Washing machine.?

    How do I change the broken Belt? The front of the machine pops off, but it does not appear I can change it from that angle.

    Do I need to pop the top and take the tub out, or can I go through the back?I have an Amana Washing machine.?
    They're not real easy to change but here you go:



    Take the front panel off. (unplug the washer of course)

    Slide the belt off of the big pulley in the middle.

    Remove the hoses from the water pump (the thing with hoses connected to it under the motor).

    Remove the bolts holding the motor in place (1/2'; I think).

    The motor should now come off with the pump still attached.

    VERY IMPORTANT - note how the old belt is run.

    Remove the pump from the motor (T-20 or T-25 screws).



    Reverse the process to put it back together.



    Be prepared to have to replace the pump as well. They often leak after you change the belt.I have an Amana Washing machine.?
    Do not tighten the belt any more. It will adjust itself while it is running. If you tighten the belt too much it will cause the washer to leak. It will spin too fast too soon. The water will whirlpool over the sides before the pump can drain enough water.

    i have never had an amana, but have generally had sears kenmore washing machines and have always layed the front of the machine on a tire (without rim) on the floor and accessed the belt through the bottom. don't know if that's possible but check it out.

    They are a real bear to change and I have vowed to never replace another one. I would junk it and buy a Kenmore/whirlpool top loader.

    My boyfriend said ive changed, and broke up with me?

    we've been together for a year, and i truly believe that we're in love. we've broken up a few times just for a few days over some different stuff. we've been fighting alot for about a week in a half over little stupid stuff, but it was stuff that made it seem like he doesnt care about us, thats why ive been mad all week. he broke up with me last night because apparently i changed and he has to move on?

    i didnt change ive just been mad and i dont know how to get him back. how do i convince him im still the same and we should be together please help meMy boyfriend said ive changed, and broke up with me?
    Hmm, well, Ask him what has changed about youu. and is he doesn't say anything pcaific, like if he says '; stufff'; or '; everything'; then nothing has changed, hes just weird. But if he does give a decent answer, then tell him your opppinion, if you think you changed, why or why not. and tell him you love him, good luck (:My boyfriend said ive changed, and broke up with me?
    Sorry but it looks like he was seeking an excuse to break up with you, some boys always blame their partner as they haven't the guts to tell them straight that its over.

    The best thing you can do is to move on, if he sees you getting on with your life it will bother him and then you can have the satisfaction of knowing you made him confused too.

    You find a contrasting one as a feature or make one up using tongue and groove and paint it to match.
    It's not a colour that is stocked any more, unless you can find one left on the shelf somewhere. A good idea is to use a piece of hardboard / mdf and paint it or tile it!
    Horrible colour anyway
    Hi - The colour you refer to is probably 'Sepia'. As far as I am aware this colour was discontinued years ago. Mainly because fittings in this colour, and also 'Burgundy', became unpopular because they were very difficult to 'clean' properly, the slightest watermark or bit of soap/cleaner that wasn't removed made them look 'dirty'.

    Use a section break, not a page break. Try this:



    1. Select the page you want to be in landscape.

    2. Click the Page Layout tab on the Ribbon.

    3. Click the little arrow in the lower right corner of the Page Setup group.

    4. Set the Apply To listbox to ';Selected Text';.

    Lifting things and how do u know u finished growing?

    i am 13 male and i am 5'6, i play sports everyday and i have a healthy diet and i weigh 57kg. On Wednesday, I had to lift 17kg of stuff in school for about 30 minutes but not straight, 45 minutes rest (school), this was the first time in my whole life that i had to carry this types of weights around school (school bag,sport bag, elect. guitar + amp=17 kg) but i did not lift them the whole entire, only when i had class changes and breaks.



    Since Wednesday, I felt a soft pain by the joint (near or in the growth plates).

    Do u think i stunted my growth? Are these small pains muscular or bone? Will i continue growing? Will i get scoliosis? Did I damage my growth plate? will i recover? how d u know u stopped growing? can u feel when the growth plates turn into solid bone or if they are broken? how much do u think i'll grow?Lifting things and how do u know u finished growing?
    You'll grow maybe up till around 20 or a little longer. You strained a muscle by improperly lifting things. You'll be fine in a few days.Lifting things and how do u know u finished growing?
    You did not stunt your growth. Don't worry. That one occurence will not make any difference at all in your growth. The pains are probably muscular. You aren't going to get scoliosis. You didn't damage anything. You can't be sure you've stopped growing until you are about 21 years old. That's when male growth usually ends. How much you'll grow depends on your genes. Look at how tall your male relatives are and that will be a good estimate. You can calm down now :-)
    you pulled a muscle my darling and have nothing to worry about.

    I NEED A GRAPH TO ILLUSTRATE HOW THE SURFACE AREA OF A CUBE CHANGES AS IT BREAKS INTO SMALLER CUBES BY 2DAYPLZ

    Start with the size of cube you want, and work your way down. I'm assuming it would be something like this:

    You could have the surface area on the y axis (verticle of graph) and the volume of various cubes on the x axis (bottom of graph) then take each volume of cubes going from biggest to smallest and figure out the surface area for it, that way you can conclude the relationship between surface area and volume as it goes from a large cube to a small cube. take a look at this website for the relationship of a cube..

    Use the WD-40, and the right size socket wrench. Tap the bolt as you apply the pressure with the socket. That helps get the oil back in to the threads where it is binding. Works most of the time. Good Luck.

    You can do it for about $60-$80 if you just buy the parts and do it yourself which by all means is the way to go as long as you know what your doing and that includes front and rear brake pads depending on which brand and which material and grade of pads you get it could be cheaper or more expensive.

    How much is my car's dateless registration number worth ?

    I've got an early 90s Volvo 900 series, top of the range Estate - just passed it MOT with nothing needed - as it does every year - done 170,000 miles. May keep it for 2 or 3 years - worth nothing I know - but I'm not in the market from some 拢8000 import from the far east under the scrappage scheme - plus a 拢8,000 new car will cost me at least 拢5,000 in depreciation over 3 years - the Volvo will cost nothing. And a new Top of the Range Volvo would cost 拢25,000. Also my old volvo keeps my local garage in work {well not much, as passes the MoT, change oil, breaks, plugs , filters myself} and not some suit in a car showroom or a bloke on a car assembly lime in Malaysia.



    When the day comes that I do get shut of it, what should I do with the Reg number ? Its on a date-less plate WIB followed by 4 Numbers. I still have a record of the K plate reg that it had when new - at some time in the 1990s this was swapped from the WIB plate - is it worth trying to sell the plate and putting the old Volvo back on a K plate ?How much is my car's dateless registration number worth ?
    I really do not have sufficient knowledge of the procedure for registering cars and changing license plate in the United Kingdom to be able to help you a lot. I could, howver, add a few comments.



    A Volvo is considered to be an excellent car, having many features of expensive cars such as the BMW but being more affordable to most consumers. It is noted for requiring much less maintenance than are many other models of cars. As well, if you have to do repairs inside the motor, you have more space within which to work than you would have in a smaller car imported from the far east. A car from the early 90s would have little retail value; however, its actual value would be much higher. I think that selling it would be a foolish manoeuvre.



    The registration number goes with the vehicle in Canada. If you sell the car, the vehicle's certificate of registration and certificate of identification must be handed over with the car to the person who buys it. If your car is scrapped the number and the pieces of paper can be retained but they would be useless to you other than for the retrieval of pertinent information. They would not have any monetary value, but they might come in handy for legal purposes if your possession of the car should ever become a matter before the courts of law. You can, in Canada, change your license plates and request a new license number. If you change cars, you are allowed to switch the license plates from the old vehicle to the new car for a fee along with some paperwork at the vehicle registration office. The procedure probably would be much the same in other countries. I am not sure what you mean by the terms ';WIB'; and ';K plate';. Maybe you could calculate the transaction fee plus or minus the cost of the K plates and the trade in value of the WIB plate.



    I am sorry if my advice is ';amateurish';. I just felt sorry for you because nobody had answered your question up to now. :D I would advise you to hold onto the certificate of registration and the vehicle identification certificate if you do not sell the car just in case.



    If you drop a ';spanner'; into the motor of a smaller imported car it can cause you a lot of problems. haha



    UPDATE



    Would the car's registration number, regardless of whether it is a K plate or a WIB plate, not be unique to that particular car and therefore useless to anybody else? Regardless of whether your car has a dateless licence plate, the make, model, age and general condition would written all over the car in terms of its appearance and performance.

    Our adopted is very thin, is slow moving and wont make eye contact. Vet says he's healthy? what is wrong?

    We just recently adopted a new puppy.



    He is 6 months Old, a Bichon Frise and was the runt of the litter. Basically, his breeder couldnt sell him, so put him in a pet store and the pet store couldnt sell him so they sent him back to the breeder who is the mechanic of a family friend..and now, he's ours.



    We've only had him for about 2 days, but he is very, very skinny. He barely eats and walks around the house very slowly. He doesnt make good eye contact but wants to be held all the time. Last night he just paced around the house very closely to the walls and when he went into corners he appeared stuck. He also seems to have a hard time drinking water, etc. etc.



    Every once in a while he brightens up and gets excited to see you...wags his tail...but then he goes right back to sleep. Does anyone know what could be wrong with him? Is this normal...



    I've adopted dogs before and seen them quiet for the first few days, but this is the first time I've seen something like this. We were wondering if maybe he is deaf? Or maybe because hes never been exercised or ever spent time out of a crate or kennell (FOR 6 MONTHS) he just may not know how to act? Will this ever change, it breaks my heart to see him like this...he's been to the vet and he has a clean bull of health. Any advice?Our adopted is very thin, is slow moving and wont make eye contact. Vet says he's healthy? what is wrong?
    Poor little guy sounds like he was one step above a puppy mill puppy. It will take him time to feel secure with you. Look at all the changes, and not always good changes, that he has gone through in his short life. If the vet says he is ok, then his problems seem mental at this time. Give him time to realize that he is at your home to stay and will always have your care and love. He'll snap out of it, and you will probably have the most dedicated dog of your life with him.Our adopted is very thin, is slow moving and wont make eye contact. Vet says he's healthy? what is wrong?
    Sounds like it's the lack of Human Contact' this happens so very often from the puppy mill type of dog. He just doesn't know how to act %26amp; is scared. Be patient with him, love him, exercise him, %26amp; gently get him used to being out in the Public. Talk softly to him %26amp; just be there for him. It may take a while, but you'll see a new dog, later. Feed him a good, nourishing diet too to get his weight up, cause he's probably never been fed good.
    This is not a physically healthy dog.



    Has he had a physical and checked for worms? Even if the fecal is clear, I'd worm anyhow to avoid a false negative finding.



    He screams neurological issues -- a regular vet may not be up on this. He may slowly gain ground but may never be really normal. I have seen one dog like this slowly gain ground and become normal, but they all don't.

    Katana GSX600F 93 clutch/gear change issue.!?

    Noisy and stiff gear change.



    A)... Changes gear fine when clutch cable is over tightened but I loose friction and thus reduced drive, so I am guessing there is no real issues with my transmission?

    Is that a correct 1st assumption?



    B)?If I slacken clutch cable (at lever) so I get good clutch engagement and no slipping, the gears CLONK and are sometimes very stiff to change. It almost breaks my heart to change it for fear of how rough it sounds whilst changing gears! clonk clonk every change!



    I either get good shift %26amp;reduce torque, or good torque and stiff shift?



    PN. Have changed oil/filter for as specified with no improvement.Katana GSX600F 93 clutch/gear change issue.!?
    That engine has an additional adjuster on the clutch lifter (where the cable attaches at the engine).

    Adjust it.

    Fully loosen the clutch cable at the handlebar lever.

    Loosen the lock nut at the lifter and turn the adjuster in, until it lightly seats against the push rod.

    Back the screw out 1/4 turn and tighten the lock nut.

    Tighten the cable at the handlebar lever leaving 4mm of free play.

    Free play is the distance the lever can be moved before pulling

    any tension on the cable.

    Where is the best place to buy a car as of now? (in LA)?

    i am looking to buy a car in about 3 months, i don't want any month to month leases. i just want to be able to pay cash and own the car. sad to say, i know the economy is bad, and i feel one mans loss is another mans gain. and i know people can't afford to keep their cars or people are getting their car reposed. so far i have been looking at craigslist and they seem to have decent amount of cars but yet i am looking for the ultimate steel, i have herd a little about government seize or repo cars or auction, and i was wondering if anyone have any testimonies on how they got a good price on a car. i am in the los angeles area, and i have a good amount of car knowledge, i can fix minor problems, or do minor tune up on a car, or if needed i can change the breaks. so i just need to know where can i get a really good car for 3000 or less or better yet waaaay less in the los angeles area. if you have tried a government auction or any auction i would like to hear your testimonies or if you know of anyplace in LA where they sell pretty decent cars for cheap then let me know, i would really appreciate itWhere is the best place to buy a car as of now? (in LA)?
    get it from an auction. not ebay,but go to any used car delaer and ask them to find one perfect car for u. usually they ask 300$ for their service. but will get for 3000$ a car,they usually sell for 4000-5000$Where is the best place to buy a car as of now? (in LA)?
    Every month across the United States, thousands of vehicles are seized by different Government agencies (IRS, DEA, FBI) %26amp; Police departments and auctioned off to the public. Due to certain laws these vehicles are listed and sold at up to 95% OFF their original value. Many auctions start at $100. Government pre-owned/surplus vehicles are well maintained and are usually only 2-3 yrs old. These Deals are everywhere and not alot of people know about them. With these troubling times though they have become more populare and widely used from what i can see. I have been to normal car auctions and gov. auctions. Normal car auctions you pay more and there is a TON of junk. Witch im sure you know. Here is one of the most trusted gov auction sites. You can look up local or state wide gov. reposesions. And with the times now there is ALOT of them. Like you said its sad but one mans lose is anothers gain.

    How long and how much to have the break pads changed on my 2004 mini-van?

    I am thinking about going to Midas..but I really can't afford to go without a transportation during the week so..maybe trying to get them fixed on Saturday.. I wonder if they are open and how fast they can work on them..and how much should I expect..



    I don't know if going to the dealership is better or not..I am afraid they might take longer and cost more.



    Thanks!!How long and how much to have the break pads changed on my 2004 mini-van?
    Is there a Geralds near you. they do a great job and take good care of your car. Reasonable too.How long and how much to have the break pads changed on my 2004 mini-van?
    do it yerself. its really easy. find a dude with tools and give him a 6 pack to do it for you.
    Go to Mavis. I believe its under fiftty dollars. Or if you dont have a Mavis, go somewhere where they specailize in brakes cuz its cheaper that way.
    go to midas or some other place not the dealer they will rake you over the coals it should cost around $60.00 per axle and can be done in about an hour I do brakes all the time there pretty simple if you do have a friend that can work on it watch him you can learn to do it your self he /or she does one side then you do the other only do one side at a time though so you can have the otherside to copy from should you happen to forget that's how I learned
    Extent the cost on any brake system depends in parts needed to complete the job. Since your Mini is relatively new you may slide out with brake pads only. If your van has brake shoes and drums in the rear it's doubtful if they'll need to be changed especially if you have 50,000 miles or less in the vehicle. If you've gone over 50,000 miles and both front and rear have never been changed you may be in for new rotors in the front, particularly if you have semi-metallic pads on the vehicle.



    You didn't include the brand of car you had as we could zero in much closer as far as costs. What really busts me about quick change brake shops is they try to talk you into rotors right off the bat. Some don't have brake lathes to attempt to save them. Another thing, be aware they'll slam ($) the tar out of you for new rotors that come from China or Taiwan. Any auto parts store has these bottom of the barrel parts for $25. - $35.00 each. The fast slick brake shops will ding you for nearly $100.00 each.



    Pads and or shoes will be in addition to the rotors. $50.00 for shoes installed and depending on quality $75.00 per axle (front or rear).



    Any independent mechanic or new car dealer uses better quality parts. In any event all work could be easily done while you're at work.

  • How can i make this speech better and funny ?

    I was the school council representative in years 5 and 6 and was senator last year. Last year I tried to fulfil my duties to the best of my ability and would do the same this year. I am always willing to listen and put forward your ideas the best I can. Last year the school council did change certain things, such as being able to change in breaks, which was something one of you ask me to put forward. There have also been some things refused like cooking club, but I will continue to put forward these ideas. Other ideas that I would like to put forward to the school council would be having bells in the changing room and being able to have packed lunches in year seven and eight. I would always listen to your ideas and put them forward even if I don檛 agree with them.

    I would really enjoy representing year eight and putting forward any issues you have, so if you want a better school life, vote for me!

    As you know, I was school council representative two consecative years and senator last year. I've always performed my duties to the best of my ability and look forward to providing you the same valued service this year



    I am compelled to listen and discuss your ideas so they can be presented to the administration. Being able to change in breaks, is just one policy I was able to achieve following your requests. And I don't think any of you have missed the Cooking Club.



    Two of my (emphasize my) objectives for this year will be Installing bells in the changing room and being able to have packed lunches in year seven and eight. And of course any of your ideas that carry merit. (Pause and smile) Even if I don檛 agree with them.



    (Biggest smile and with energy) I look forward to being your representative and working together for a better school life. Let's leave this school better than we found it. Thanks I appreciate your vote!



    Good Luck!!!

    Last year after I was asked I was able to change certain things for the benefit of everyone, such as being able to change during breaks (here you can add a funny story of an incident where someone was not able to change)

    There have also been some things which were refused like cooking club, but I promise I will continue to put forward these ideas.

    The essence of humor is pain, presented in absurdity, as though that is an escape from it. Serving oneself up as a dedicated servant often kicked aside in a clown-like manner by vested interests, keeps from meanness and maintains a good mental health attitude for everyone which is refreshing in politics. Also it presents your accomplishments and goodwill toward those represented. But lose the clown nose. Regards, Larry.
    By rewriting it after having a bottle of wine maybe .
    You should throw lipstick on a pig somewhere in there!
    You're not allowed pack lunches in a school? Like..wha?

    My husband's mom owes us money, and she ignores my messages and emails.?

    We had a queen size guest bedroom set that cost us about $1500 total mattress and decorations and bed clothes everything. We could have easily gotten ATLEAST $600-700 for the bedroom set, but my inlaws needed a new set, so we sold it to them for $450. Part of the deal was that my father in law would change our breaks, and he would pay for the breaks and that would come out of the money they owed us. Well we didn't end up using the back breaks and I returned them for the $30 that they cost. Well he paid with a credit card and the only place that $30 could go was back onto the credit card. This was 2 months ago. I have told her on the phone, and I have left her 2 messages on facebook, but she will not answer me about the money. Whether you think it is petty or not, I am not really interested in, because I don't think it is petty, and I don't work and $30 is a lot of money to me. I don't know what to do, I told him he needs to deal with this, and he needs to talk to her, but I also don't want to put HIM In a weird place asking for money from his mom. They are coming to visit us for my sons birthday in a month. Their bills are about half as much as ours, and they make about twice as much as we do. (they just moved that is how we know because we know their rent) so it just drives me crazy that they are so irresponsible with their money going out and blowing it on brand new four wheelers and brand new jeeps, but they can't pay me what they owe me. I don't 'know what to do! I know this sounds horrible, but it is making me resent them, I don't even want them to come to my house for my sons birthday, yes, over $30. It is more of the fact of the matter that they owe us money on something we sold them dirt cheep and she is ignoring me.My husband's mom owes us money, and she ignores my messages and emails.?
    Rule # one, never lend money to family. It is soooo hard to get it back if they don't want to pay it back. Feeling s get hurt and it is not pretty. If I were you, I would forget the $30.00 and chalk it up are a lesson learned. It will never happen again, right? Don't resent them, just figure that are that type of people and move passed it. This answer will keep peace in the family.My husband's mom owes us money, and she ignores my messages and emails.?
    sue her for estafa...
    Sue her, and let the court take care of it!
    It is very petty and you should take the loss as a learning experience, ive always heard dont do business with family or friends. Here are the results. Its petty just let it go.
    I can understand. I think it's more about the fact that she is ignoring you. Not so much about the money although like you said it's a lot to you since you don't work. When she comes (IF she decides to go) ask her in person. She will have to pay you or tell you why she isn't paying you. That's wrong because yes it is JUST 30 dollars maybe they think they shouldn't pay you back since it's not a lot of money. Good luck. Next time don't do them any favors or ask for the money upfront.





    EDIT: My MIL owes me 300 dollars till this day and she acts like she doesn't owe me... so there you go. Yeah maybe just ignore it and NEVER do it again. She has asked me again and I say NO.. She thinks I'm rich or something.. They can go to hell.
    You can either let it go or continue to let this drain you emotionally and allow it to take over your life. Them being irresponsible with money doesn't sound like anything new. I don't see how you can be so upset on the furniture, you chose to sell it that cheap. It takes too much energy to be this angry. Next time they need something, guess they'll have to find another victim.
    $30? OMG - get a hobby! If you aren't willing to sue for the money - let it go! You need to learn how to let the little stuff slide.





    BTW - if money is tight you can always get a part time job...yeah, you know - work.





    ADD: Doesn't matter what you think about their spending habits - they aren't yours...they are none of your business so MYOB..it's THEIR MONEY to spend how they see fit. YOU = NEED A HOBBY.
    I think you need to start paying your in-aws on a weekly basis for this absurd question.
    You shouldn't have discounted the furniture knowing they are financially better off than you. You were doing no one a favor by that.
    ';Whether you think it is petty or not, I am not really interested in, because I don't think it is petty, and I don't work and $30 is a lot of money to me.';





    Then don't ask for other people to give you advice if you don't want to hear what most of them will say. Straining your relationship over $30 would be about the stupidest thing you can do. Just learn your lesson and don't do them any financial favors in the future.
    What does your hub think? does he take initiative to deal w it? he needs to. if not you can mention it to her. not at the party tho. the next time u see her
    i wouldnt harrass my in-laws for 30 bucks, no matter HOW important or necessary that money is. tell them to buy new brakes and give them to you. if you dont want the brakes anymore, that's your problem cause that was the original deal, not to give you the dough in cash





    i say: you live, you learn and from now on, you''ll know not to lend them money. sometimes you got to bite the bullet and just move on.....





    EDIT, BASED ON YOUR 3RD EDIT: LET IT GO ALREADY....DONT YOU GET THE HINT; IT'S NOT A BIG DEAL AND NOT WORTH TELLING YOUR SON'S GRANDPARENTS THAT THEY CANT COME TO HIS BIRTHDAY. GROW THE F-K UP ALREADY, sheesh!
    how old are you?


    and MIL having facbook..


    i don't even know where to begin..


    1. let the issue go it's not worth the headache for them or yourself


    2. don't sell them anything anymore


    3. breaks is brakes


    4. your son is not a weapon to use, he's their grandkid they have the right to see him


    5. you spend alot of money too.. queen size and decor for 1500.. what the heck kinda dressing you buying..
    Let it go. $30 is just not worth it. You dont have any idea what they pay for, or what their bills cost. Unless you look through every bill they get you dont know. Im sure they have done things for you. Just let it go.
    While I understand your position, your blowing this a bit out of proportion. Is thirty dollars worth your family's happiness? Right now your pushing your husband and are ready to ban them from their grandchild's birthday party, seems a little over the top. Your acting as if they're ripping you off, they did exactly what was asked of them. The decision to not use redo the rear brakes wasn't something they forced on you, it was a decision you seemed to have been okay with when it was made. You simply didn't expect to not get a refund or credit for returned parts. Just find a way to make up the thirty while they're visiting, ask them to go pick up some beer/soda or supplies from the grocery for the party to make up the difference. Riding your MIL for thirty bucks is going to get you nothing, but a stressed out awkward relationship with them for yourself and your family.
    First off your *itching saying you don't work but you spent $1500.00 on a bedroom set that in reality you didn't need cause you sold it. I do understand that it is the principal. Your husband needs to discuss it with his parents. You were wrong to put personal business Face Book. As far as not wanting them to attend your child's birthday party, grow up! The child is innocent in this matter, so why punish him by keeping them away? To be spiteful, that's why. A mature, responsible mother would see that it is in the best interest of the child to have his grandparents attend his party. My advice is learn from this and never lend or sell to family members. Sit down and talk to your husband and tell him about your concerns and feelings. You may be able to say '; oh well '; they have done a lot to help us out over the years and never asked for repayment. We don't really need the money for our bills { if we are struggling, I should get a part-time job}. If your husband agrees that they should pay back the money then try to work out a payment schedule that works for everyone. Then talk with respect to his parents together, in person. If your relationship with his parents was good before this took place, then find someway to compromise. NOt only for him but for the entire family as a whole. Family is far more important than money.

    He dumped me...i want him back HELP!?

    We we're together almost 8 months and he left me 4 days ago. It was rocky throughout the relationship because he'd say I stressed him out with my constant moaning and having a go at him and never being happy but we had some great times though. Everything would have been fine if i just controlled my anger, kept my mouth shut and didnt get so jelous. He always told me how he felt and always gave me patience but he has broke up with me 3 times over it - And always taken me back.

    But this time, I dont think he's gunna take me me back. I got mad at him and told him to ''F*ck Off and called him a C*nt'' because he told me couldnt see me this weekend becuase it was his dads birthday and he'd come see monday. Then he said '**** this' and dumped me over msn :( He's still talking to me online, I 've tryed to get him back and ask for another chance to show him i can change and stop getting so nasty but he's said no because he was depressed when he was with me and now he's happier without me :(



    At the time, i didnt realize the damage i was doing,i didnt realize he was so unhappy but now i know i would change, it breaks my heart that he felt like that. I care about him so much and just want him back and make it up to him :( what should i do??He dumped me...i want him back HELP!?
    say you won 81 gamesHe dumped me...i want him back HELP!?
    Hun you had 3 chances and you blew them.......like c'mon you are gonna really have to prove to this guy that he has changed........And if you just keep your old habits and takes you back well then he's dumb ....Your abusing him verbally emotionally not cool
    To be honest it sounds like you have serious anger issues. As such, I'd recommend getting some counselling and dealing with it before you get into another relationship with anyone as abusive patterns of behaviour are difficult to break without help.
    Ive had the same problem, Just talk to him and tell him how sorry U are, Otherwise dont be such a bit拢ch ... and everything be fine.
    Concentrate with being happy by yourself %26amp; give him space %26amp; time (at least 3 months) to think %26amp; work things out for himself. If he wants you back, he'll tell you. If you hassle him, he'll run a mile %26amp; end up hating you.
    My best friend's boyfriend did the EXACT SAME THING! omg

    She couldn't hang out one weekend so he called her a selfish c*nt and she dumped him.

    But she took him back. They've broken up a few times, too and they keep getting back together. He keeps pressuring her to have sex with him and we are only 14.

    Honestly, I want her to dump his ***! He doesn't deserve her at all. It sounds like you just need to give your ex some space. i know it sucks when you get dumped because all you think about it what you did wrong and wish you would have done something else. I know it's stupid, but I honestly think everything happens for a reason. 8 months is a long time and I'm sure it hurt very badly. I'm sorry. Just give him some space, maybe date other people and see if you honestly have anger issues or he just made you have the issues. And maybe while you date other people, he'll begin to miss you and understand how much he likes you.

    Hope it helped

    Does thought processing go back to normal when you get off drugs and stop being a junky?

    I use to be an addict of marijuana and sleeping pills, sometimes Ecstasy. I'm still on the sleeping pills, but I'm taking lower doses because of my really high tolerance so I can quit. I dropped out of school in the 9th grade pretty much because of drugs. They brought out a lot of unnecessary emotions, and when I was at school, I wasn't there in my head. I'm slowly getting off and hope for a brighter future with out bad peers and just want to start my life over. I'm having trouble doing so though because I've missed a lot of time to grow up and experience life the way my peers did. I can't relate to them at all anymore because they've been through practically everything that I'm just begining to go through because of my set back.



    All I do is sit around all day and do nothing. I'm not expecting my life to be completely hunky dory (as good as that sounds), I'm just wanting my life to be normal. It's seems like I can't function like other kids my age, and I can't tell if it's because of experience they received and I didn't, or if I've dealt a great blow to my brain and that's why I am the way I am. I'm 17 and feel like I have the mind of a 13-14 year old. Every time I get that little motivation to change, something breaks me down about how stupid I am half the time compared to my age group, and I know it's because of the drugs. I'm getting off, and for good, but will I ever be able to make something of myself and learn anymore? I'm afraid that once I get off, not much is going to change and I'm going to be just as ****** up in the head as I was when I waso n drugs. Am I ever going to be able to fit in again and have a consistant life with others, but do so with ME this time? not someone I want to be or look up too.



    The thing that sucks the most is that I only did drugs because of a kid that was like a brother to me did them. I did everything he did and at first did drugs to fit in with him. However, later that changed and I began doing drugs for my own enjoyment where it got out of hand.



    I've never been the smartest person, but I feel like I've destroyed my chances of ever changing that.



    Is it possible for me to fully recover, or do I have to face the harsh reality that I've actually ruined my life?Does thought processing go back to normal when you get off drugs and stop being a junky?
    There are several things you can do that can help. First off, I would suggest stopping the sleeping pills and any other over the counter medication you are taking. Then I would suggest going on a very clean diet of fresh fruit and vegetables to begin cleansing your body of the long term effects the drugs have had. Also start taking a daily multivitamin and exercising daily, this will help the body detoxify and it really does help out the brain and nervous system. Finally, I'd suggest doing a juice fast or water fast after being on a clean diet for a decent amount of time. This will really clean out your system of the toxic drug residues and other crap thats built up over the years. Finally, if you want to be smarter you have to exercise your brain and the first place I'd start with that is getting back to school. Find a group of supportive friends(not the druggie loser type) and work hard and you'll catch up so to speak in no time. Also your grammar for the most part is pretty good for yahoo answers so your brain can't be too far gone to learn and think. Really what you need to do is write out a plan and follow it to the T and perhaps find someone to hold you accountable for it. Get your high school diploma or GED though. Without it there is not much you can do in todays society. Even with it there isn't much so go to college after that.Does thought processing go back to normal when you get off drugs and stop being a junky?
    Of course you can recover and become very smart you just need to go for your g.e.d and such get a job and get your life on the right track wish you the best of luck

  • Does thought processing go back to normal when you're off drugs and stop being a junky?

    I use to be an addict of marijuana and sleeping pills, sometimes Ecstasy. I'm still on the sleeping pills, but I'm taking lower doses because of my really high tolerance so I can quit. I dropped out of school in the 9th grade pretty much because of drugs. They brought out a lot of unnecessary emotions, and when I was at school, I wasn't there in my head. I'm slowly getting off and hope for a brighter future with out bad peers and just want to start my life over. I'm having trouble doing so though because I've missed a lot of time to grow up and experience life the way my peers did. I can't relate to them at all anymore because they've been through practically everything that I'm just begining to go through because of my set back.



    All I do is sit around all day and do nothing. I'm not expecting my life to be completely hunky dory (as good as that sounds), I'm just wanting my life to be normal. It's seems like I can't function like other kids my age, and I can't tell if it's because of experience they received and I didn't, or if I've dealt a great blow to my brain and that's why I am the way I am. I'm 17 and feel like I have the mind of a 13-14 year old. Every time I get that little motivation to change, something breaks me down about how stupid I am half the time compared to my age group, and I know it's because of the drugs. I'm getting off, and for good, but will I ever be able to make something of myself and learn anymore? I'm afraid that once I get off, not much is going to change and I'm going to be just as ****** up in the head as I was when I waso n drugs. Am I ever going to be able to fit in again and have a consistant life with others, but do so with ME this time? not someone I want to be or look up too.



    The thing that sucks the most is that I only did drugs because of a kid that was like a brother to me did them. I did everything he did and at first did drugs to fit in with him. However, later that changed and I began doing drugs for my own enjoyment where it got out of hand.



    I've never been the smartest person, but I feel like I've destroyed my chances of ever changing that.



    Is it possible for me to fully recover, or do I have to face the harsh reality that I've actually ruined my life?Does thought processing go back to normal when you're off drugs and stop being a junky?
    First of all, the longer you are clean, the more ';clear'; things will become; indeed your brain is still detoxing, and it takes a while to awaken those neural connections that have sat dormant for so long because of your drug use. While there may have been some damage or depression (of function) caused by your use, the brain (and human body) is really very resilient, and you're still young. It sounds to me as if the greatest hurtle ahead of you is learning those social/developmental tasks you may have lost out on while you were high all the time, but again, you're still young and your whole identity as a person is still developing. Speaking from experience, it takes time, and the hardest obstacle (in addition to staying clean and ';catching-up'; to your peers socially) is, simply put, learning how to be ';normal'; as ';normal'; is for you, when for so long you didn't really know what normal was. While it may not be much of a consolation, reading your post was actually inspiring-you are much more articulate than many of the students I have worked with at the college and university level, so don't be so hard on yourself.

    I do have one question for you, and that is this: do you think that perhaps you suffer from depression? Whether as a result of drug use of simply the life experience you say you missed out on, depression can make it difficult to interact with other people, difficult to concentrate, and difficult to learn anything. During my worst depressions, I couldn't retain the simplest of instructions or information, yet I eventually graduated from post-secondary school with the highest GPA possible. (I'm not trying to brag, I'm just saying that there is certainly a difference between the mental/functional abilities of the healthy, happy brain versus the unwell, emotionally ';messed-up'; one.)

    People who know a little about cars!!!?

    Im thinking about buying a 2001 honda civic sedan with 85k miles from a local dealer. The thing is, I test drove it, and noticed that the ABS light is on, and the breaks THUMP when stopping. Im guessing that I need to change the breaks, Will this solve the problem?



    Also, the front right shock is weak (the dealer said so) so it makes noise when going over bumps, it kind of feels like the spring or something is not quite properly working.



    So, how much of repair costs am I looking at (parts plus labor) to change the breaks, and fix the shock? (rough estimate) Thanks for your time!People who know a little about cars!!!?
    Over all I'd say a 2001 Civic should be a pretty darn good car.However,the dealer is hiding stuff from you.A new car dealer would never sell a used car in this condition.I good used car dealer (I was one) wouldn't let you assume a ';brake job'; would fix the ABS concern (It WILL NOT).Your ABS problem could be relatively minor (wheel sensor) or could be a major expense(I suspect he has already had it diagnosed).I also don't trust his diagnosis of a ';weak shock'; for a front end noise.If you think the car is a pretty good deal-take it to a knowledgable shop (Honda dealer ?) and pay for a diagnosis/estimate.That way you know what it will take to fix %26amp; might even get a cheaper price on car after showing the seller how much it's gonna cost to fix (although I bet he already knows).People who know a little about cars!!!?
    around $250
    If they need to change the rotors, you're looking at $200 a wheel.

    Add shocks.........good luck.
    In the frint you have struts which probably run about $120 each + labor. Brakes if it needs rotors probably $200-250
    I would take down the VIN # and get a car fax on the car it maybe that this car was in a accident and not put back together right I would just keep shopping cause a2001 Honda should not be having these kind of brake problems so soon you need to look long and deep before you leap Good Luck

    Changing my break pads?

    i have a nissan primera 2.0 new shape, and i want to change the break pad. how can i know if its has got a break shoe, and do i need to do anything special while changing? can a car have a break shoe and break pads aswell?

    and will like to know if it is something i can embark on.

    thanksChanging my break pads?
    look behind the back wheels. if you see a drum instead of a rotor then it,s got brake shoes on the back. you can change them yourself. just get yourself a haynes book on your car and take your time. it shows pictures and tells you how to do it. what you can do is take both wheels off and if you get stuck then you can look at the other side to see how they go on.Changing my break pads?
    Buy a haynes manual for your car !

    I find them invaluable if you are not a mechanic but want to do some car maintenance.

    Otherwise take the wheel off and hub and have a look at what your car is fitted with.Many cars have pads on the front and shoes on the back.

    You will need some allen keys , pliers a screwdriver a container like a tin a hard wire to support the break calliper when it is removed and possible a bleed kit.Check the general condition of your break pipes for corrosion pitting etc any leaks or bad corrosion will mean that section of break pipe will need replacing.

    As the new pads will be larger than the worn ones the fluid level will go up when the new pads or shoes are fitted so be care-full that when the pistons are pushed in to refit the larger new pads that the break fluid does not over flow from the master cylinder.If so clean up spill as it will strip paint off where ever it splashes !!!
    Many cars have pads on front shoes on back. Shoes are a little difficult and therr is a tool for it. But if you have time and patience a screwdriver and pliers will suffice. Take it to a mechanic or buy the tool.
    It is not difficult if you have basic mechanical skills. The caliper is usually held by two bolts. After you remove them the caliper lifts off the rotor and the pads are either clipped into it, or rest in the mount on the rotor.



    There is a special tool to press the piston back into the bore. But many people just use a block of wood and pry it back in. Just be sure not to let it push in at an angle, it'll damage the bore and cause problems later.



    Rear calipers often have a parking brake built in. They require a special tool to twist the piston back in. It costs about $25 at a parts store.



    Some cars have disc in the front and drums in the rear.Drum brakes are more difficult since there are return springs and levers to deal with.



    Get a Haynes or Chilton's manual for your car and look through it to see if you think it's a job you can handle. Brakes aren't a complex job, but the first time can be intimidating.
    Well pads are not dificult to change (front breaks) you just need special tool (which costs maybe 15 20 dollars) to compress the cylinder in so you can place it back on wheel with no problem But real pain are shoes (rear breaks) where you need to b carefull when putting them back and after you do put it back you need to make sure there is no air left in the break fluid lines. There is a little srew that you unscrew while somebody pressed break 3 4 times then you screw it back. First somebody presses break 3 4 times then you unsrew it. YOu do it like that 2 3 times making sure air is out of lines. Hint: Once you see that fluid is coming out you stop, prior to that you will hear air and some you'll see some drops od break fluid. Also remember you change front breaks two times and rear ones one time. For example if you are changing them every year (front ones) rear ones go every 2 years. Pretty much now you just need to change front ones only.

    Love-story with edges?

    if you could give me advice - or comment - i'd be so grateful!



    i feel heartsick from time to time, thinking back of a man i really really love very much. what we had was a love affair of much time (must have been around 18 month up to 2 years, with breaks). i had a bf and he had a gf when we met. i fell in love, since my relationship was rather like brother+sister. i was honest. but the man i met wasn't. he lied about his relationship. making me feel there was hope and a new beginning. so, that was the start of it all. after some real hard time but also moments i'd never want to miss, i had to break free because it hurt me too much. i am a tolerant person, i want to see the people i love happy, i don't want to hurt intentionally. what i had seen was that this man was (upon his own words) unable to have a relationship and stay faithful. he was seeing other girls too. i think i was someone he held on to. me too, i was his hope to change life + break free of his own (unhappy) relationship. but he hurt me by obviously seeing other girls too. when i noticed that he had less+less time (as i know now, he met his now-girlfriend, with whom he seemed to have had a relationship already before) i was sad, depressive and heartbroken. i just noticed something was wrong and he had almost no time. it was the time when i drew back and tried to forget him. it was the time too, when i must have lost him to his now-girlfriend. when something else occured (he flirted right in front of me with one of his girls, kind of kissed her and smiled over to me) i got cool as ice+very very angry+told him he'd NEVER never see me again in his life. he did not expect this+looked at me with disbelief. that was it for the first time. i've not seen him for half a year after this thing. i tried to forget him. but over time, anger turned into love and i just could not stand the thought of loosing him upon such a fight. i hate fights. and i hate disharmony. so i texted him + he was so happy about that. what i realized then, was that he was in a new relationship. splitting up from his serious relationship before and living a new life with a girl he seemed to know since some time. we kind of stayed friends, met, talked, and every time i missed him so much right after. of course we could not only stay friends and that was like the whole rollercoster was starting again. somehow he had told his now-girlfriend about our story. and when she found out we talked again, of course, she was mad. i could understand her. i did not want to destroy his new life (since i love him) but living without him was not worth thinking of! when she called me for the second time to tell me how much i disturbed, i knew she was right + i felt the man i loved had always been using me. i wanted to stop and wrote him a mail, explaining of how much i still liked him, but that staying friends obviously was not possible either and - that he should stop texting me (even if only rarely).



    now, some months have passed and i miss him so much :(



    i have a new job, so this really kept my thoughts off him for some time. but now, whenever i think of him, i would love to see him, meet him, talk to him, laugh with him, and just be around him... in short... i really really miss him. what do i do? i have a boyfriend. he has a girlfriend. and he seems to be serious about her. is this how it's supposed to be? living our lifes in distance, missing him all these years+wait if ever ever anything will change???Love-story with edges?
    Sounds like your in a love triangle. But there are only 3 corners to it. Sweetie from me being a guy im gonna tell you straight up. This guy was stringing you along like most guys do until something better comes along from the beginning. I know that you guys had something special but thats the key word HAD. At the same time him having all these other girls on the side is more drama that you dont need. To much baggage and that will mess with your mind like it is doing now. If you miss him do something to take your mind off him. I know you said you have a job. but do more activities that will make you happy. That emotional impulse that you have will eventually be replaced by the new happiness whether it be any other person or activity that you are doing.



    Do not do not go back. You will be stuck in his web of deceit and lies. Not to mention what he is passing around when it comes down to it. I had a friend who wanted me to spy on a guy and im like HELL NO! Let it go. And she is married of 2yrs. She found him online on myspace. She just wants to know how he is doing but dont want to contact the man. I still said no. She was obsessed to see if he is doing bad or good preferable bad. It was around the same issue that you are going through and living. Plus thats not love at least from his end. Its infatuation on yours. If he loved you in the slights he wouldnt be doing that to begin with. You would be the only one on his mind and his heart. The first thing he wouldve thought in the morning and before he went to sleep at night. You would know when he looked at you at times just too be looking at you with no response. And you asked him whatt...? And he replies oh nothing just looking at your beautiful self. Thats love. But it goes deeper and beyond that.



    In final relax. Sounds like your young. He might be a lil older than you from what it seems. But do not go back to him or you will be like my female friend wanting to know the what if instead of living your life for the Whats next. If your not moving on you will not damage yourself only but the person you are with in the future. Dont you think the future man he deserves that. So think about it but let it be a thought that you forget about this man all together. Dont get stuck in that cycle of misery. Its basically a forbidden past that will never come true. That plus you cant change him or no one that doesnt want to change.



    Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.Love-story with edges?
    The love stories tell us we need to give one person the key to our life. But when we do, they throw it away. This is because living for someone else is idolatry, we give up our decisions and purpose to him. You started to take back your life, but now you aren't sure...he felt so safe.



    I don't know how to talk of the solution without being spiritual. You have purpose that is not dictated by anyone but your perfect Self. You can call it God or Christ or anything, but you have access to the Self at any time, not just through him.
    i know where you are comming from

    Lol ..right.. dont laughh please :)... what do you think of this story/poem i wrote?

    this poems about my boyfriend who i was with for 4 years, and then i lost him to drug :( x





    From the frist day you missed your train to come back to me,

    to reunite our love, and from then on i knew i did you bad

    i knew you fell down hard , but i know you found it in you to forgive my heart.

    and from then on i knew we'd never be the same

    we'd stand there in the rain and try to fix the problems , try to carry on but from when you walked away i'd be left broken and bow my head in shame



    I knew we wouldnt last i knew it would break my heart , but i'd try to convince myself that we would never part.

    I loved you to much to loose you

    i cant move on and in my mind i think to myself that you are not gone



    from the breaks to the dates you were in my mind

    24/7 you used to always be there to shine , looking out for me holding me i miss your touch

    and now its over i realise i love you so much



    Holding on so tightly keeping a close eye, scared you'd get with that one girl and then our love would die



    seeing single as your status broke my heart leaving my memorie left with a tearful mark



    trying to forget us , trying to move on but all i can do is replay in my mind and remind myself i first lost you to what you've died from



    And although your right there to my touch your so far away

    change has broken us , and left me to live my life in a harder way



    Now all im left with is memories and photographs ,

    you in my mind saying '' i love you so much'' .. i miss him so much

    i'd do anything , i'd even die for him as such

    But i get it now its over . i know.

    but why tell me there's a point if you knew our love would end fell?



    my first our love your presence everywhere i go ...



    i love you ... i miss you... and i just want yo kiss you ...



    I hope you realise how much it hurts



    you left your girl scared and marked with a broken heart..Lol ..right.. dont laughh please :)... what do you think of this story/poem i wrote?

  • How often should you have your break fluid changed?

    is there a legal requirement by the law that requires a car's break fluid to be drained and flushed and refilled after so many years use ?How often should you have your break fluid changed?
    never change it unles it gets contaminated. I'll bet if you look in the owners manual you will not find anything about changing brake fluid any where in the book. Just like the steering flushes they try to sell. Money maker for the dishonestHow often should you have your break fluid changed?
    it is recommened to be changed every two years
    no laws...however it is a good idea to replace brake fluid on higher mileage vehicles as it absorbs water(hygroscopic) and when contaminated can cause brake component failure. THC,the word is HYGROSCOPIC(look it up)
    Check your owners manual. We used to do it at the 30,000 mile service. Brake fluid absorbs moisture (water) which leads to corrosion in the master cylinder and wheel cylinders.
    There is no requirement to have your brake fluid flushed. Brake fluid is hydroscopic, which means it absorbs moisture. If the fluid looks dark it means it has taken on some moisture, but nothing to worry about. If you're going to be racing you will want clean fluid in order to keep the boiling point down, but for a daily driver it is not neccesary.
    I don't know of any law, but I have always changed mine every two years, you cant take chances with brakes ,it's your life your family's life and any one else on the road.Take no shortcuts with safety that's what I believe in.
    No legal limit.Recommend checking every 5000 miles unless faulty ie break fluid leaking
    Every 2 years. No law about it only the guarantee requirements for the car.

    By the way it is BRAKE and not BREAK.
    No, just change it every time your brakes stop working! Works for me, okay a few shop windows and small children have paid the price, but hey!
    There is no legal requirement to change the brake fluid in your vehicle. Yes, brake fluid absorbs moisture over time. MAP guidelines state that you may suggest replacement of brake fluid when the copper content reaches 150-199 ppm. They go on to state that a copper content of 200+ ppm is needed to require a flush.



    This is tested by using a dip strip that you stick in the master cylinder and check against a guide.



    The way this works is as the additives in the brake fluid break down, copper that is in the brake lines start to flake off and float in the fluid, the dip strip tests for this to know that the additives are depleted.
    there is no law but if you live in england it is RECOMENDED every 2 years!

    on the continant ie spain every 2/3 years
    Normaly every 2 years, check owners hand book.

    I would advise more often depending on usage/mileage.

    Most garages have a tester that checks the brake fluid for water contamination.

    If you are changing it yourself make sure you use the correct fluid i.e.dot4 etc.
    There is no legal requirement but to be sensible have it drained and replenished every 10000 mile service

    How to change mass amounts of broken links in Dreamweaver CS3

    For some reason on an album I created in Dreamweaver with 300 pictures, when it links to the picture it goes ';xxxx_jpg.jpg'; When the actual file is ';xxxx.jpg';. is there any way to change all of theses without having to do them individually. How to change mass amounts of broken links in Dreamweaver CS3
    Go to the actual source code and do a copy of what you want to change by highlighting it and doing a Ctrl + C. Then do a Replace All. My editor uses Ctrl + R and gives me choices. Use whatever the shortcut key(s) is/are in dreamweaver to replace all the text with what you want it replaced with. More than like, you could just copy ';_jpg'; and leave the replave with window blank and it will remove every occurance of ';_jpg';.

    No there isn't but I know why its _jpg. It is because you accidently used a space instead of a period when creating it.

    If they are the stock lugs, then a Mazda key is a Mazda key.

    Go to the auto salvage yard and find one there.

    How can I switch my Verizon phone?

    I want to switch phones without having to break or change my contract. I found out how to do this on another site but is there any way to do it with out having to sign in onto a Verizon account online? PLEASE help. Thanks :)How can I switch my Verizon phone?
    You can do this in person at your local Verizon store. If you have your old phone and the phone you want to change it to then you can switch your phone number from your old to your new phone. This will not break or change your contract.



    You can also see if you are eligible for an upgrade. Verizon has annual upgrades and also 2 year upgrades so if you visit the store they will be able to tell you if you are eligible. If you do get an upgrade (annual or 2 year) then your contract will be extended another 2 years.



    If you have any other questions message me.

    Erosion-wearing away and removal of rock material that occures by agents such a gravity, ice, wind and water



    Weathering-natural mechanical or chemical process that causes rocks to change be breaking them down and causing them to crumble

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erosion



    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weathering



    will help to clarify.



    It's quite a subtle difference, which lies in the concept of 'movement'. Weathering involves no movement of the rock. Eroded rock in a river, for example, breaks off into tiny pieces which are carried elsewhere. Rock weathered by frost (so that it splits and flakes off) falls where the original rock lies.

    Full suspension bike question?

    i bought my first full suspension bike w/ disc brakes, i didnt get the manual to see about the maintenence of it, how do i maintain the springs %26amp; change the breaks? also they have quick release how do i take off the rims? i know how to do it on my hard tail but i never dealt with disc brakes beforeFull suspension bike question?
    Go back to the place of purchase and get the manual. If they don't have it, return the bike. It is Federal law that manuals be supplied with new bikes.



    Discs are precision things and you really shouldn't play with them on your own unless you know what you are doing after someone else shows you.



    Quick releases are simple things, and their operation should have been explained to you at the shop where you purchased it. I STRONGLY recommend that you don't attempt to remove the wheels until you are shown how to use them since it is easy to use them incorrectly and place yourself in danger.



    If you got the bike from a discount store, well, why do you think they call them discount stores? No service and no professional help along with a mediocre product... but hey, you saved money, right?
