i always go by william. my apologies to those that answer to Bill, but i always thought it was a redneck-sounding name. i picture guys named Bill with cowboy hats, belt buckles the size of small plates, and a little river of chewing tobacco spit oozing down their chins. i think William is a more dignified name. agree or disagree?
William or Bill?
I agree....William is very dignified and old fashioned name. And I love your sterotype...I agree with in completly.
Reply:My brother's name is William. We call him Will....he hates Bill.
Reply:I like William....or Will.
Reply:Well William does sound more sophisticated or formal maybe I should say. But I prefer Will.....does that sound redneck to you too? You don't hear the name Will very often %26amp; I think it is a nice change from Bill. Just my opinion.
Reply:Bill.
Reply:william
Reply:Agree. William is so much classier in my opinion as well. I don't like "Bill."
Reply:I still can't figure out how from William someone got Bill... or Jim from James... or Jack for John (as in the president)...
I have an uncle named Bill, love him... didn't know he was a william until I was 18 or so =) LOL.
I'd say disagree only because I have met a lot of Bills who are not even close to being redneck.
Reply:William
Reply:william
Reply:William. Where does "Bill" come from anyway?
Reply:I agree. I don't like nicknames.
Reply:WILLIAM
Reply:I don't like either, but William is better than Bill.
But I think Will is better than William.

Can I have a handbag dry cleaned??
I have a beautiful white Guess handbag - not 100% sure of the exact fabrics it's made of but it's a mix of material, leather (if it is leather), and also has big silver buckles on it. Only problem is, the white material has clearly got stains on it now. If I took it to a dry cleaners would they be able to do it for me?? Thanks!
Can I have a handbag dry cleaned??
Have you tried cleaning it yourself, first? It saves a lot of money. Try checking your bag's tags, because they usually have cleaning instructions.
Reply:Why not go to a Guess shop and take your bag there and aske them what the best way to clean it..Im sure they know..and can help you there..
Reply:lol, you have made my day :)
Reply:why not save time and ask the dry cleaners direct!?
Reply:I have a Guess bag too, though it is grey. Normally there will be a number or something you can call if you have any problems (I have a Mulberry and Chloe bag that have), if not then I am sure that dry cleaners can clean it for you. you can only ask!

Please help with this question, and explain?!?
a railroad track runs perfectly straight for exactly one mile assume that the two ends are fixed but the track expands by one foot and buckles up in the shape of an arc of a circle how far is the middle of that arc off the ground
Please help with this question, and explain?!?
Draw the situation and work on one side of the middle line.
Let the angle at the centre of the circle be A.
You have 2640.5 = R*A (providing A is in radians)
Also 2640 = R*sinA (A still in radians)
These together give
2640.5/A = 2640/sinA
2640.5*sinA = 2640*A
This equation cannot be solved exactly by algebra but since we assume the angle is small it is reasonable to replace sinA by its approximation of A - (A^3)/6 (only in radians).
This gives
2640.5*(A - (A^3)/6) = 2640*A
1 - (A^2)/6 = 2640/2640.5
(A^2)/6 = 1 - 2640/2640.5 = 0.00018936
A^2 = 6*0.00018936 = 0.0013615
A = sqrt(0.0013615) = 0.033707
This is a small angle and justifies the approximation used.
Using this figure we can now work out that the radius of the circle is 2640.5/0.033707 = 78337.3 ft
We can now use pythogoras to find the distance from the centre of the circle to the ground level = 78293.8 ft
This gives the height of the centre of the arc as
78337.3 - 78293.8 = 44.5 ft.
Three comments on your additional notes.
1 Two top contributors using different methods come to exactly the same answer.
2 Yes, the result is surprising, but that doesn't make it wrong.
Old fashioned railway tracks were laid in short stretches with gaps between them for precisely this reason. Modern track uses longer lengths but it is fixed down very securely so that although it wants to expand it can't. I have seen photographs of old track which experienced freak hot weather. It had buckled into a very curly S shape and that's with a lot less than a mile length.
3 I have a lifetime's experience of teaching advanced mathematics. What do you have - intution? If you think that we are both wrong then show us why!
Reply:Thank you for the time it took you to help me with this. I still cant wrap my brain around the 45 foot height. I am in integral calculus right now, but this is for another class. any insight as to how i can make my brain believe this haha?:) Report It
Reply:I think that since it is extended by 1 foot, the arc would have a 1 foot perimeter. The arc would also be half the circumference of a whole circle. What you are trying to find in this problem is the radius of the circle. So use:
C=2πr
(1 foot)*2=2πr
You multiply C by 2 because the arc is only half the circumference, not the whole.
Solve for r and that is your answer.
Reply:See the link below for all symbols used.
Using the approximation:
s² = c² + (16/3)h²
solve for h
h ≈ 44.5 ft
Alternately, we can solve two equations in two unknowns to find R and θ.
5280 = 2 * R *sin(θ/2)
5281 = R * θ
R ≈ 78335.08050
θ ≈ 0.06741551762
Then use:
R = h + R * cos(θ/2)
and solve for h.
h ≈ 44.5 ft

What category of failure do we encounter when we deal with buckling?
tension stress failure specially in concrete. could also cause torque and shear stresses
What category of failure do we encounter when we deal with buckling?
I went out tonight looking for agirl to "buckle" with but I failed, now I sitting at home messing around on YA
It was a bit if a blow to my ego.

Are chain letters real?
Really terrified read this:
""Hi, I am Niecy. Once you read this you cannot get out. Finish reading this
until it is done! As I said, I am Niecy. I am 7 years old. I have no eyes
and blood all over my face. I am dead. If you don't send this to at least 12
people I will come to your house at midnight and I'll hide under your bed.
When you're asleep, I'll kill you.
Don't believe me?
Case 1:
Patty Buckles
Got this e-mail. She doesn't believe in chain letters. Well, Foolish Patty.
She was sleeping when her TV started flickering on and off. Now she's not
with us anymore. Ha ha patty, Ha ha! You don't want to be like Patty, do
you?
Case 2:
George M. Simon
Hates chain mail, but he didn't want to die that night. He sent it to 4
people. Not good enough George. Now, George is in a coma, we don't know if
he'll ever wake up. Ha ha George, Ha ha! Now, do you want to be like George?
Case 3:
Valarie Tyler
She got this letter. Another chain letter she thought. Only had 7 people to
send to. Well, T

Reply:Chain letters are not real. They are made up... all the time. They spread from the inventor to their friends to their friends' friends, etc. Don't believe them, i get a bunch and i never send it, i'm not dead and i'm not in a coma. Trust me, some people find it fun to spread these things...
Reply:Yeah she's been living under my bed for about 4 years. Luckily i have a drawer that i can lock her in under my bed. Haha You hear that Niecy? i'm laughing at you. Damn she's getting fiesty again. Excuse me while i attend to her.
Reply:chain letters are not needed. Chain letters are reaally stupid actually.
Reply:well um I've read a bazillion of those and i haven't posted a single one of course they're not real
Reply:No...
I got the same one but the name wasn't Niecy, it was Timmy %26gt;.%26lt;!
Another one was Teddy.
What's with all of these dead seven year olds with no eyes? Shouldn't they be in a sandbox somewhere? =P
Besides, I would be dead over a thousand times by now.
And I would have horrible relations with close friends.

This Carnival ride what....?
Well at my school fair we have each year..we have this ride called the Gravatron spelled something like that anyways..Well its this ride..were you stand up on a red mat..and theres no buckles or saftey thiny ma bobs, and when it starts to spin faster and faster! That seats fly up lol, and u cant move AT ALL! O_O why is that? lol
This Carnival ride what....?
That is a Gravitron. They are becoming increasingly less common. What is holding you in is a high g-force (also why you feel heavier in that type of ride when it is in motion) created by the spinning motion. You can actually "stand up" (on the red mat you are supposed to "lie" on) at a nearly horizontal angle without falling.
Reply:yeah its the force. Like...when u have a bucket of water and you spin it upside down fast enough the water is forced to stay in. Or like a roller coaster in a loop....only instead of vertical, this is horizontal.
Gravitrons were once VERY popular rides. They still are but now we see less of them and carnivals seem to become less of a big thing then they used to be in like...the 90s-
Reply:It is called Inertia [pronounced in er sha] and as long as the ride continues to spin in the same rotation you stay there but say if it hit a bump or moved out of that rotation you would fall. You can do it with a bucket of water fill it 1/4 way and swing it around [like over your head up and down not side to side] if you do it right the water will not spill at all. It's taught in PHYSICS. Here is the definition:
The tendency of a body to resist acceleration; the tendency of a body at rest to remain at rest or of a body in straight line motion to stay in motion in a straight line unless acted on by an outside force.
Hope this helps!
Reply:the answers above are all correct...im in the amusement industry and have been around this ride my entire life. when i was a kid i used to wait and ride it with just a few friends and after the ride got going we all shifted our bodies around until we were upside down....just remember to always shift back around as the ride is slowing down or else u will end up on ur head!
Reply:its called centrifical force
Reply:I don't know. I've been on a ride like that before at Rye Playland.

Bronze bits/ heavy bits?
I've got a loose ring snaffle that's made out of bronze. Does anyone know the purpose of the bronze? Are these bits used for a certain reason? I got it to match my bridle with bronze buckles etc, but I figured before I switched I should ask what the purpose of the bronze is. I know that copper is supposed to make them slobber more, and I don't want to accidentally use a bit that has other purposes other than just being a bit.
Also is there a reason that the bit would be heavier than normal bits? Will this effect my horse at all?

a lot of bits are made from bronze but are usually chromed or german nickle plated..bronze is actually a good material for bits and have been made out of bronze for thousands of years..however it is heavy but this can be a good thing and it also oxidises leaving a dark green patina that will have to be cleaned often but when it is clean it looks like gold..i have bronze flatwear i use everyday...
EDIT: bronze is actually harder and stronger than wrought iron and was used for weapons and tools..
Reply:As long as you have soft and loose hands, a bronze bit won't hurt your horse.
Bronze bits are heavier, so if you have unsteady hands, or hit your horses teeth a lot, don't use it.
However, if your hands are good, the bit will be heavier, so it will settle the weight along his mouth nicely.
Reply:Bronze is a soft metal, are you sure that is what it is made of as I dont think it would be very safe. If it is made of Aurigan or German silver it is actually a form of copper amalgam and its purpose is to create a different chemical reaction to steel in the horses mouth, which is why they tend to salivate more freely. Aurigan or KK bits are technologically advanced and scientifically designed to be of optimum comfort and effect. The weight of a bit has an effect on the horses performance, we have heavier bits because they sit more securely across the bars and are not so easily caught up in the corner teeth by the horse. A very delicate araby type would not be as comfortable in a heavier bit as the warmblood competition horse that it was designed for. If your bit is indeed bronze then do be aware that as a soft metal it will be prone to wearing at the edges , and is possibly unsafe for serious usage. I have never seen a bronze bit for sale in the UK.
Reply:Watch out for heavier snaffles...I've seen really heavy ones and the horses disliked them; they'll shake their heads and get banged in the mouth....some of the working cow horse trainers have no use for them for the very same reason......

Reply:That all depends on what kind of injury you have.... if you shattered your patella then you might need pins and screws or even a total knee replacement. If you have torn cartilage or ligaments then you'll need what they call a knee arthroscopy.

Where can I buy a long-bodied swimsuit?
I'm a rather long-bodied person but I'm finding it hard to get something to fit. I don't want something with buckles and bows, I need something I can swim in.
Where can I buy a long-bodied swimsuit?
Based on your question, I would think you are female.
I have a friend that has the same problem, she is almost six foot tall (183cm). She wears tankinis because one-piece suits are too tight in the shoulders or to tight in the crotch.
Here are a few websites to look at.

I need a cute pair of flats?
I'm going to my friend's sweet 16, and there is going to be a lot of dancing so I want to wear flats. But it's very dressy, and they have to be either black, silver or red. Cans omeone find me a cute pair? I can't seem to find anything. Thanks! I don't really have a budget so any price will do. And please make them simple. No heel or bows or buckles or anything tacky like that. Thanks!

Is it weird that i...?
i've always been into trucks, sports, unfrilly stuff...i dont ever wear makeup ...rarely wear my hair down, wear my jeans kinda low, baggyish shirts a lot ...and recently bought a thick leather strap watch...my dad said it looked like a mans watch, but i liked it so much i bought it ne ways...and i love wearing cool belt buckles.....idk y but im not into girly girl stuff at all, and i especially dont like pink...but ne ways...is it normal ?? or not??
Is it weird that i...?
Your just feeling your way in the world and discovering what you like. You do not turn gay by the clothes you wear. You are a homosexual if you are attracted to the same sex and despite some idiots opinions you are born that way.
My daughter lives in jeans and men's shirts, doesn't like pink, and never wears a dress. Her boyfriend loves her just the way she is.
Reply:the entire masculine vs feminine gender role concept is just something society made up. it is not necessarily natural that all girls want to be feminine.. nothing wrong with what you are doing. be yourself and do whatever makes you happy..
Reply:what you wearing is not you is just a garment,who you're is what you choose to be,if you feel happy with the thing you do and wear people will accept you and love you the way are!
Reply:YEAH FOR YOU! Being yourself via your clothing is one of the easiest ways to be liberated these days. Fashion changes all the time, and as long as you stick to your guns, no one will ever question your style or sensiblility.

You'll know instantly (especially if she's a hottie.) Good luck with everything!
Reply:Work the fashion and life that fits you. Who should give you any definition of "normal"? Being yourself is more normal than half the people out there who wish they could be just like that person in the magazine. YUCK!!!! Define your own normal and stick with it, sounds kind of cool to me.

Weird Pain?!?
For the 3 day in the past 4 or 5 days I occassionally get this SHOOTING pain! It's located right along my underwear/bikini line, like where my leg meets my body. It hurts so bad my leg actually buckles and I cry out! It only happens a couple times a day. I am 38 weeks pregnant. Anyone heard of this before or had this experience? Is it just the way the baby is sitting?
Weird Pain?!?
The baby is sitting on a nerve and this is whats happening..
I had it and It hurt..It will be over soon
congrats om baby!
Reply:It may be stress on your hip. You might think about seeing a chiropractor or a masseuse. The weight of the baby throws you off balance. A good massage might relieve a lot of pain.
It was the only way I was able to walk that last month of pregnancy.
Reply:It has to do with the way The baby is rest on your lower pelvic are when you in your most relaxed state this probably happens cause i would get them when i was pregnant and sleeping there were so painful They would wake me up out of a dead sleep and every time my husband would sit up and Say Is It Time
Reply:talk to your doc
Reply:I HAVE HAD THISS TO. I THINK IT HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE WAY THE BABY IS SITTING OR SOMETHING TO DO WITH A NERVE.
I KNOW ITS VERY PAINFUL.
Reply:What type of underwear are you wearing? Are you wearing maternity undies? I think boxer briefs feel much better
Reply:thats called your sciatica nerve.. I had this with both kids very painful good luck and yes its normal
Reply:Hey there, if it's in the back, down your buttocks it is probably your sciatica nerve. Babies put lots of pressure on them the last few weeks as they get so big they don't have anywhere to go. Sometimes it can last for hours, a hot bath might help soothe it.
If it's in the front, about one inch in from your pelvic bone on either side it might be the pressure on your groin is causing a slight herniation (most likely inguinal).
Definitely mention to your doc... especially if in front, he might want to watch it after the birth to see if you need surgery. Also, if it's on the right side in front he may want to make sure your appendix aren't acting up.
Reply:I am actully going through this right now...I thought that maybe something was wrong with my pelvis....I asked my Doc and he said not to worry about it..The baby was just laying on nerves...it is just starting to go away...
Reply:Dont wear any tight clothes..preferrably no clothes...
You're going to go into labor soon, be prepared. Keep your legs wide apart so your vaginal area is pretty much open, it may help nullify the pain.
Reply:I dont know what its called but I had it also! it hurt but the doctor said it was normal!! good luck and remeber your almost done!!

Caught in the act?
ok so i am just wondering if i can call the poliece on a person who doesn't put their three year in a car seat nor even buckles them in and lets them pull on the door handle when a child safey isn't on. this kid is going to fall out of the car! or something just as terrible. i want to know if i do call the poliece can they do anything about it or do they have to catch the parent in the act? I think this is a form of neglect, neglecting the childs safety!
Oh yeah they claim they don't put the 3 year old in the car seat because he screams and throws a fit whenever they do. that is just stupid to me. i think its safe to say they shouldn't have bred in the first place.
Caught in the act?
Yup, you're right, it is neglect....unfortunately in America, a person needs a license to drive a car, needs registration to vote, but ANY idiot can conceive a child.
Try to encourage your friend to use the car seat and if that doesn't work call child services. I hate to encourage snitching, but if something happens to the child, you'll never forgive yourself.
Luck!
Reply:umm to me i would call the cops becuase it is wrong but u might also be able to call social services that would be smart because if that family does anything eles unsafe the Social Services will take the kid away and The soical services will not tell them who told them about it so u can do what is right and tha tkid can stay safe
Reply:I'd say go ahead! It is extremely dangerous for the child to be out of the seat, especially with pulling on the handle. Atleast tell the police...they should keep an eye out. Those parents need to learn how to discipline their child, and the child is going to have to learn.
that is child endangerment as far as im concerned
Reply:yous should keeps in yours mine that alots of peoples can aford carchairs for they ninos. tapes works just good like the fancy carchairs.
Reply:a child not being put in a car seat is illegal and i know that for a fact...same thing as not wearing a seat belt. i would probably either call the police if not child services because the child could die from not being in a car seat with no seat belt it is a form of neglect i mean the child could open the door when the car is moving and fall out.. just because the child throws a fit is no excuse and i would know because i have a child too and shes almost 2 and she throws fits alot but if its something serious like that let them fuss and comfort them the best you can otherwise i think its neglect. well good luck.
Reply:i aint sure if you have to catch them in the act, but i think that it is child abuse when you dont put a child in a proper saftey seat.
Reply:You can call the police and ask them if they have to be caught in the act. Just ask to speak to an officer about a case of child endangerment and the police can tell you more about what the requirements are to prosecute a case. Also you can call child services and report them there. PLEASE do something! You can't just wait until it's too late and then say "I told you so".
Reply:I would think you would be able to call the police or even child protection services. The child is in danger for not being buckled up in a moving car
Reply:report the parents to the police;the child might end up dead one day. they're NOT to listen to the child but deal with the screamming and temper tantrum to protect the child.
Reply:I suggest calling child services, as they are well equipped to deal with child endangerment. I would imagine that you have an agency such as DCFS in your area where you can file a report about this neglect.
Reply:WOW SOMEONE WHO THINKS LIKE ME!!!
i HAVE TRIED TO CALL THE COPS MANY TIMES ON PEOPLE LIKE THIS AND YOU HAVE TO CATCH THE PERSON IN ACT.
I AGREE WITH YOU SO MUCH, IF YOU DONT PUT YOUR CHILD IN A CAR SEAT, THEN IT SHOULD BE A FORM OF NEGLECT , BUT, ITS NOT. WHICH IS SAD!
Reply:ya before something happens, god luck.
Reply:I agree, it is very hazardous to the child's safety. I would call the authorites if I were you, otherwise that child may lose their life in the act. It is the law to wear a seat belt and have a young child strapped into a car seat (if required) at ALL times. You don't have to have them caught in the act, but evidence would support the theroy. Save a life!
Reply:hmmmmm don't call the police, if you told them that's enough, maybe tell them again...
Reply:you should!
that's terriable!
and bad parenting!
they should not be responsible for a child!
call the poliece and if they can't do anything about it ask who you should call maybe child services
Reply:The best thing to do is call the police at a time when you can report their exact location.
If I knew they were on route from A to B, I'd call and report that a car with that description was traveling on whatever road with a child unrestrained, etc.
You could also request the help of Dept. of Family Services. They may not do anything, but at least there would be documentation for future reference.
Reply:I doubt there is much they can do unless they can catch them in the act. Your word alone will not bring charges and I agree, people like that shouldn't bring children into this world.
Reply:I wouldn't call the police,you could try calling Children Services,they could probably help you more.That is definitely a problem though,children need to be in a safety seat!You should really do something,its something that shouldn't be neglected!
Reply:they are being very irresponsible parents and let the child control. Scary!!!!! their are child protection units make some phone calls and take it from there. If you never say anything and he falls out you will live with that forever.
Reply:HI, YES CALL THE POLIECE. THE POLIECE MIT HAVE TO CATCH THEN IN THE ACT. BUT I AM SURE THEY CAN CATCH THEM IN THE ACT. TELL THEM TO LET THE CHILD SCREAMS ALL HE WANTS AS LONG AS HE IS SAFE.
Reply:you can indeed call the police for child endangerment
Reply:Our state has an 800 number to call if you see a child out of their car seat. KIds will fuss when they're in the car seat, but it's one of the ONLY things I've been consistent about. Call the police on a non-emergency line and see what advice they give you.

Reply:umm to me i would call the cops becuase it is wrong but u might also be able to call social services that would be smart because if that family does anything eles unsafe the Social Services will take the kid away and The soical services will not tell them who told them about it so u can do what is right and tha tkid can stay safe
Reply:I'd say go ahead! It is extremely dangerous for the child to be out of the seat, especially with pulling on the handle. Atleast tell the police...they should keep an eye out. Those parents need to learn how to discipline their child, and the child is going to have to learn.
that is child endangerment as far as im concerned
Reply:yous should keeps in yours mine that alots of peoples can aford carchairs for they ninos. tapes works just good like the fancy carchairs.
Reply:a child not being put in a car seat is illegal and i know that for a fact...same thing as not wearing a seat belt. i would probably either call the police if not child services because the child could die from not being in a car seat with no seat belt it is a form of neglect i mean the child could open the door when the car is moving and fall out.. just because the child throws a fit is no excuse and i would know because i have a child too and shes almost 2 and she throws fits alot but if its something serious like that let them fuss and comfort them the best you can otherwise i think its neglect. well good luck.
Reply:i aint sure if you have to catch them in the act, but i think that it is child abuse when you dont put a child in a proper saftey seat.
Reply:You can call the police and ask them if they have to be caught in the act. Just ask to speak to an officer about a case of child endangerment and the police can tell you more about what the requirements are to prosecute a case. Also you can call child services and report them there. PLEASE do something! You can't just wait until it's too late and then say "I told you so".
Reply:I would think you would be able to call the police or even child protection services. The child is in danger for not being buckled up in a moving car
Reply:report the parents to the police;the child might end up dead one day. they're NOT to listen to the child but deal with the screamming and temper tantrum to protect the child.
Reply:I suggest calling child services, as they are well equipped to deal with child endangerment. I would imagine that you have an agency such as DCFS in your area where you can file a report about this neglect.
Reply:WOW SOMEONE WHO THINKS LIKE ME!!!
i HAVE TRIED TO CALL THE COPS MANY TIMES ON PEOPLE LIKE THIS AND YOU HAVE TO CATCH THE PERSON IN ACT.
I AGREE WITH YOU SO MUCH, IF YOU DONT PUT YOUR CHILD IN A CAR SEAT, THEN IT SHOULD BE A FORM OF NEGLECT , BUT, ITS NOT. WHICH IS SAD!
Reply:ya before something happens, god luck.
Reply:I agree, it is very hazardous to the child's safety. I would call the authorites if I were you, otherwise that child may lose their life in the act. It is the law to wear a seat belt and have a young child strapped into a car seat (if required) at ALL times. You don't have to have them caught in the act, but evidence would support the theroy. Save a life!
Reply:hmmmmm don't call the police, if you told them that's enough, maybe tell them again...
Reply:you should!
that's terriable!
and bad parenting!
they should not be responsible for a child!
call the poliece and if they can't do anything about it ask who you should call maybe child services
Reply:The best thing to do is call the police at a time when you can report their exact location.
If I knew they were on route from A to B, I'd call and report that a car with that description was traveling on whatever road with a child unrestrained, etc.
You could also request the help of Dept. of Family Services. They may not do anything, but at least there would be documentation for future reference.
Reply:I doubt there is much they can do unless they can catch them in the act. Your word alone will not bring charges and I agree, people like that shouldn't bring children into this world.
Reply:I wouldn't call the police,you could try calling Children Services,they could probably help you more.That is definitely a problem though,children need to be in a safety seat!You should really do something,its something that shouldn't be neglected!
Reply:they are being very irresponsible parents and let the child control. Scary!!!!! their are child protection units make some phone calls and take it from there. If you never say anything and he falls out you will live with that forever.
Reply:HI, YES CALL THE POLIECE. THE POLIECE MIT HAVE TO CATCH THEN IN THE ACT. BUT I AM SURE THEY CAN CATCH THEM IN THE ACT. TELL THEM TO LET THE CHILD SCREAMS ALL HE WANTS AS LONG AS HE IS SAFE.
Reply:you can indeed call the police for child endangerment
Reply:Our state has an 800 number to call if you see a child out of their car seat. KIds will fuss when they're in the car seat, but it's one of the ONLY things I've been consistent about. Call the police on a non-emergency line and see what advice they give you.

Reply:In most places you are legally obligated to report suspected child abuse, if you do not you can go to jail.
Nevermind the moral obligation

What type?...?
what type of les. am i? cuz i've been hearin a lot bout butch, femme, soft butch, tomboy, etc...im not all that into labels, but im just curious to see what i'd be considered...
i dont like or wear pink...i dont wear skirts or dresses..i shop at places like pacsun beachbums hot topic vans billabong, etc....i dont wear makeup...i put my hair up in a ponytail 99.9% of the time...i wear my jeans down low...i wear baggy shirts w/ undershirts a lot...but i also wear normal fit shirts...i love belt buckles (if they're cool)..i love sports...im one of the strongest chicks i know....im very athletic and toned...i dont wear frilly stuff...and i love thick leather strap watches with big faces (certain ones though)...so ya...oh..and im a total lover of trucks n all sports n stuff...
What type?...?
First off, remember that labels are more than just style. They're about personality, how you act, how you speak, how you relate to others, and most importantly, how you feel inside, not just how you dress and style your hair and what makeup you wear.
I'm a big fan of self-generated labels, meaning that you use a label for yourself, as part of your identity, rather than having someone else label you. But I know you're just curious, and not all too serious about this, so if I had to, I'd proclaim you a Chapstick Lesbian. You don't sound butch enough to be butch or even soft butch, definitely not femme, could be a tomboy, but I'd need to know more about how you act. So I think Chapstick Lesbian fits your sportiness and casualness.
Maybe, for a little bit of fun, these quizzes might help you:

Reply:Oh, honey just be you! Some les fit into nifty categories, most don't. Remember that most straight women like to wear casual clothes and even men's clothes becasue they're more comfortable. I love watching romances, and I can't resist a movie where there are cool explosions either! Just do everything you love. You sound great: don't listen to people who tell you you have to fit a category.
Reply:BUTCHHHHH!!!

Us Navy items?
Looking for car, hats, other belt buckles, etc.
Us Navy items?
Best bet would be to find your local Army-Navy surplus store.
I unloaded 25 pairs of my old bell-bottom dungaree pants when I got my commission in the Navy... amazingly, I found someone who would pay $5 a pair... of course they sold them as "vintage-distressed" and charged $40 a pair.
GOOD LUCK

Confederate flag ban in SC school?
There is a little girl challenging her schools ruling of banning anything with the Confederate flag on it. I.E. Belt buckles, t-shirts and more. Should this be? Isn't this a violation of her 1st amendment rights?
Confederate flag ban in SC school?
yes, but if it causes a disruption in class then the teacher has the right to ban it.... to some the confederate battle flag is a sign of being racist, too me its a way of life a long time ago and one to cherish and to be proud of !!its a battle flag of a defeated country that was torn apart just as much about the way of life for the south as it was for its meaning !!!
Reply:I personally think that it should not be banned anywhere. However, I do feel that schools have a right to ban it if it has caused a fight in the past, which I believe has been upheld in court.
Reply:first of all i'm black. second, the confederate flag and meanings are different from person to person. I understand why a black girl (i'm assuming she is black) would want this to be banned. THe reason why maybe from a long time ago back in pre and post civil war. That was a long time ago and i think its time to move on and focus on more things like why martin luther king died and why we are should be thankful for being able to go school and not have to sit in the back of a bus anymore. I live in arkansas and before that mississippi and i love living in the south and to me thats what i associate the confederate flag with not anything negative. I know white guys that i went to school with and even today all the wear is confederate flag t-shirts and cowboy boots and are just country to their heart...and their cool *** hell! Every person I guess associates that damn flag to many things....its 2006..think positive and lets all get out of the past...it only holds us back! Its refreshing to see a little girl take on a big issue and challenge someone and has caused quite a stir. I hope all goes well with her and what she stands for ya know.....voicing her opinion and trying to change something...you can't knock her for that!
Reply:im not sure about her first ammendment right but they do have the right in school to wear whet they want as long as it meets dress code which doesnt say anything about rebel flags. it would be denying her of her hearatage mexican kids get to wear sruff with their flag on it(nobody says anything) some children dont say the pledge because of their religion (nobody says anything) so why should we have to change?
Reply:It depends on what color you are..
I personally think that this is just as much of a historical fact as was when they brought slaves over to the U.S... The flag should be on every corner of every southern town.
Course they do not tell the turth about this either. Most slaves were sold to their slave masters by their borthers and father's or, the tribal chief as well.
If you go outside of the U.S. there is a whole new set of rules that they go by.
Reply:In my personal opinion it is! I dont know NC law though. It should be a first ammendment issue!
Reply:I currently live in the North ( YUP a Yankee)I am a big fan of the South and feel that the confederate flag is not about anything but Southern Heritage. It is a big part of your past and should not be banned. The Confederate Flag is a part of your history dont let anyone take your history away from you!

Hip Hop Culture: Question about the fashion in your area?
question regarding the hip hop culture, just wanted to know whats the fashion/dress attire like in your area..what's the stuff alot of ppl sport, are there a bunch of jim jones look-a-likes? (small shirts, belt buckles, wallet chains, n shyt)
Hip Hop Culture: Question about the fashion in your area?
There's quite a few Head at my school. My circle is HUGE on Wu-Tang (thank God), but the only people that dress even remotely close to Jim Jones are people that listen to ish like Yellow Card.
I keep it fresh...LRG, Sean John, Rocawear, Jordan, Ecko, and Im sporting this new brand "Live Mechanics." It's motto is "Leaders of the Old School."
Every head at my school rocks some graff design on their backpack. I got a dark-blue W on mine.
As for everyone else, its mostly Hip-Hop related. Baggy pants (not as much sagging anymore), good-fitting shirts (nothing sizes too big or something 3 sizes too small) and some fesh kicks. Well, I speak for those in my area (Heads, athletes, etc...
Reply:hell naw..lol

Reply:I live in Florida... SOME guys do the whole Jim Jones thing... But, then again some of them even get clowned for it. But, there are some that can get away with it and look nice. But that doesn't really fly with me.
I see alot of guys wearing Coogi out here. Usually the baggy jeans, larger shirts, and shoes are REALLY big out here. Bigger than the clothing brands because you can throw on a plain tee, some jeans, and the right pair of sneakers will set it off.

Results of political acumen question #6?
This question is observation only--no correct answer, obviously. It's a matter how well candidates are able to get across to you their strengths under pressure.
Personally, I never vote for anyone unless they've served as governor. Bill Clinton was a good candidate. Currently, Bill Richardson of New Mexico, Huckabee of Arkansas, and Mitt Romney are the governors running for office, and of the three, I prefer Richardson (even though I'm an obvious conservative).
Keep in mind that when the President of the United States buckles under pressure to foreign leaders, Americans suffer, usually monetarily. We need the strongest possible leader, especially considering that some world leaders are tyrants.
Comments welcome.

I don't use that as a litmus test. Giuliani served as mayor of a city that is bigger than most states. Bigger than many UN members for that matter. He has a solid record of accomplishment there %26amp; we KNOW how he responds to pressure.
Reply:I think you have to check your history to limit yourself to only governors. Our major wartime presidents were not governors. And take your example today with Bush. He's degraded our military so much with lack of equipment, poor veteran care, etc. and alienating the rest of the world when we need them more than ever to fight terrorism.

Why are so many people on here against sex?
Seriously it seems that at least 3/4 of the people on here are anti-sex. Every time a sex question comes up most people say it's wrong outside of marriage or you shouldn't before you're at least 18. I don't know anyone in my personal life who feels that way except for my parents. Is Yahoo Answers being overrun with Puritans? Do you people all run around in black hats with buckles? I just don't get it. I'm 15 years old and I have a healthier view of sex than most people on here. Sex is enjoyable and there's nothing wrong with it. Also everyone always mentions STD's and pregnancy right away. Have you people heard of condoms? You can have sex safely if you use your brain. Am I the only one who's really irritated with these answers?
Why are so many people on here against sex?
You are a smart girl at 15! I agree with you, there is nothing wrong with sex and as long as you are responsible you should be okay.

Alot of people out there have kids b4 their ready and the child always end up suffering. Alot of women have 3 kids by 3 different fathers. If people have STD and use a condom there's still a 3% chance that they will infect there partner. Sex is something special and should not be treated like a sport.

Reply:maybe ... condoms are anything but 100% eeffective against pregnancy and STDs (please note that I am not saying that they are not effective ... of course they are ... but they are definitely no guarantee).
peoples view of the world generally changes quiet a lot between the age 14 and 21 ... take it from someone who has "been there, done that, got the t-shirt" and especially the view of things like sex and relationships. I am not sure I know anyone who thinks sex is not fun but a grown up view puts it in the right place and right time with the right person. most people can spot the really bad cases but I personally know smart, careful people who have got really burned when things went wrong. also check the "age of consent" laws for your area carefully ... you might well find that having sex at 15 is illegal, like it or not (and if you pay attention to the news you will realize that the consequences can be unreasonably harsh, like it or not)
bottom line is ... it sounds like people are giving good advice, whether or not you like it is another story.
Reply:Look most of the people on here are adults. and any adult is going to be just like your parents and tell you if you are not 18 do not have sex. For one yes sex is enjoyable but I do not want to think about a 15 year old child (yes i said child) Having sex. You will not be an adult until you are 18. You are still a kid. You can not even hold a job right now because you are not of legal age yet. Sex is not just something you do it is an emotional commitment and something that should only be shared with someone you truly love not just a little boy who thinks they are a man. Please try and understand it is children like you that have accidents and start posting things like I am pregnant how do I tell my parents. Condoms are NOT 100%. Nothing is. Hope this helps you to understand.
I was just like you when I was young and thought I knew everything. I really found out that I knew nothing when I found out I was pregnant at the age of 17 and yes I was on birth control. Nothing is for certain. I did have a miscarrage at 3 months.
Your right sex is great and feels wonderful but not at that age of 15. please take it from someone who knows. and by the way if you think it makes the boys like you better. Just think of what they are saying about you when your back is turned. Like she is easy, she is a whore, she will give it up, go out with her. That is the only reason they will call
ADDED: By the way I have looked at your other question and girl you have alot of growing up to do. Please you are way to young to be having sex
Reply:sex is great, but u do not broad cast it when u are only 15. most people know that 15 yr. olds are doing it, hell i was at 15, u just dont talk about it and expect it to be ok. its like smoking **** u just dont advertise that u do it.
Reply:Condoms don't prevent STD's, it can only 'reduce' risk. And very few people in the whole world think that sharing their spouse with someone else is a really keen idea. So you're in the minority. But, you have a right to your proclivities.

Reply:I am neither Puritan nor abstinent. What I am is in a position to understand the risks and be able to deal with them. You are not.
You cannot have safe sex with a liar, and you won't really know someone is lying to you until after you get the STD. Think you are ready to be a mom? Think again. Oh but I forgot, condoms will save you. They are 100% effective after all, aren't they? They can't even claim that in a factory testing center, so how effective are they really when a 16-18 year old child with his hormones in overdrive is trying to use it?
I realize you think you know everything at 15, but you really have no idea about life yet. And when you are 25-28 you will realize just how little you knew at 15. I just hope for your sake that you aren't caring for a 8-year old with AIDS at that point.
Reply:15 year old kids shouldn't have a view of sex, you are a child.
Sex is great, when you are AN ADULT.
Reply:Ah! To be young again and know all the answers. It doesn't seem fair that you only find out the questions when you develop maturity.
Reply:Accidents happen as far as the STDs and pregnancy. There's nothing wrong with people considering sex to be something sacred between a couple. In fact...I think that's a lot healthier than all the people who are in here talking about peeing on each other!!
Reply:I lost my virginity well before I turned 18. I must admit, it was great fun. This being said, I was not prepared for the dangers that sex presents.
I don't buy into any kind of organized religion, so don't think I'm biased. I'm all about pre-marital sex. I think that marriage without pre-marital sex is a mistake.
This being said, things go wrong when you have sex. Not often, but they do here and there. A condom works most of the time, but they do break, which can lead to a number of problems, which you are undoubtedly aware of. Most of those problems are not things you should or can deal with at your age.
Condoms will also do nothing to prevent a handful of STD's. I know what it's like to be a teen. Don't get me wrong. When I was younger, I thought that STD's always happen to some distant person. Well, a friend of mine got HIV while we were in college. He was generally very safe, and how he got it, we don't know. Obviously no one I know will confess to having HPV or HSV2, but statistically speaking, A LOT of people I know have both. You cannot prevent either with a condom. While neither will kill you, both are a nuissance, and one of them can lead to cancer which can sterilize or kill you, or both, in that order.
If you are going to be sexually active, for pete's sake get on the pill. Condoms will only prevent you from getting knocked up for so long.
One more thing. Keep in mind that you are, in fact, a teenager. That means, matter of factly, that your hormones are still going nuts. This has been shown to affect decision making skills, mood swings, and aggression. While you may think that this doesn't apply to you, be conscious of the fact, that everyone, as a teenager, does not have as good judgement as they will have 10 years down the road.
You can safely disregard all the fundies on here as they have other motives for telling you what they do. But make sure that you are well versed on what you are doing, and the statistics if you plan on having sex.
Reply:Quite frankly what I find irritating is the fact that our society has managed to rear a generation of children who feel the same way YOU do!
Sex outside of marriage goes against Biblical teaching for a reason - it's unhealthy spiritually, physically and mentally!
I'm 45 years old, had sex for the first time at age 30 on my wedding night, and don't regret my decision one bit! I'm stable in every way, and my husband is faithful to me, which in this day and age is also rare!
Reply:Perhaps it's because sex is an adult activitiy with a number of lasting consequences and should not be entered into by someone immature. Sure it's enjoyable, but it's also something of an adult pleasure. at 15, if you get pregant ot get someone pregnant, who do you think is going to take care of that child? What kind of a job are you fit for at 15? Additionally, sex causes the release of brain chemicals that cause bonding...particularly in females...random sex indiscriminatly sometimes winds up making you unable to bond when you want to. No one is saying sex is bad, but that sex is serious and not like just skipping rope. But you wn't listen to me, I know , because you're 15 and you know EVERYTHING already. Good luck.
Reply:I don’t think anyone is against sex, I think it is more about being at an appropriate age, at an appropriate time, with the right person - preferably “YOUR spouse”.
Not enough people cherish their rights to remain a virgin anymore, as they seem to rather count how many they can get instead.
Reply:i am not against sex, but do think 15 is a little young for having sex.
Reply:Its not that everyone is puritananical. You are looking through the eyes of a 15 year old..Its fun and you want to play. There is nothing wrong with sex if you have the maturity and commitment to deal with it. It takes some age to realize that you need that maturity. Until then it is nothing more than a game. When you get older you realize that you have wasted something special for so little reward. It is much better when approached less like a fun game and more like a total commitment. Less hurt feelings and less emotional distress later.
Reply:I know what you are saying. Like yea, it probubly is right to wait till marriage to have sex, due to pregnancy and sti's. And how protection isnt always 100% working, but still wut if we dont get married are we gonna b virgins 4 the rest of our lives. And it is making people feel bad who don't wait.

Fashionistas...HELP!?
I am going out to dinner and the club tonight with my fellow co workers for a small Christmas celebration (we all work at a bar and can't get together on weekends) Anyway, I have a purple sweater dress and these fab purple gator style shoes with two gold buckles one on the front and one on the side. I am wearing a long gold chain and gold earings and it is cold here in Boston so I want to wear tights.. I wanted to wear gold tights preferably but, I went everywhere and couldn't find exactly what I was looking for so I settled for the gold color on this page http://www.welovecolors.com/Info/Colors....
Do you think these tights will look ok or should I go with nude nylons... Any assitance would be appreciated. Thanks!!
Fashionistas...HELP!?
don't do gold tights..too matchy...nude is great or black.
have fun
Reply:I think it would be cute, however, I don't know if I like the gold color on the site you sent. I personally would just go with nude nylons because a purple sweater dress and purple shoes is a lot of color, those nylons might just look tacky.
I guess it really depends on the look of your sweater dress.
You do have a lot of color happening without the nylons...the gold chain and earings and gold buckles it a lot of gold...
I guess you'd have to try it on and see how it looks, I guess I cold see it working, I just don't know about the nylons.
Reply:if thats the gold ur going with then nooooo purple and sucha bright color clash... u'll look like a pinata lol... but i think u should stick with a plain colore like black because the gold will brighten up the outfit u dont want ur stockings to match so brightly... or if u dont like black go with a natural color. i like the idea f the purple dress and gold gator shoes... ADORABLE! =]

Do you think my mom is fair??
I bought these really cute pair of pink high heels. My mom told me that I should wear them around to get use to them, so i did. The next day, she told me to wear them again. My mom has been forcing me to wear my heels for 3 days, she says "you need to break them in" but my feet hurt so bad, she's even gone to the point where if i try to take them off, she puts little diary locks on the buckles to keep me from unbuckling them. Your opinion??
Do you think my mom is fair??
she is going a bit overboard. it seems like she is upset about you buying the heels and wants to teach you a lesson. just doesnt seem like it to me that she really wants to break you into your new heels. either way, you have to tell her how you feel and that your feet are killing you, so that she will stop forcing you to "break them in"

I don't know what she is trying to prove but that is bordering on abuse when your feet are in that much pain and she is quite literally locking you into your footwear.

Anyone ever broke there femur and have knee injuries too? did full range of motion come back in leg?
i was in a car wreck, broke my femur and messed up my knee, right now i can only bend my knee so far and it hurts, im supposed to have surgry on my knee soon to have ligiments repaired, when i stand on my leg , my knee buckles, will the knee surgry fix my knee and give me my full range of motion back?
Anyone ever broke there femur and have knee injuries too? did full range of motion come back in leg?
A friend of mine broke his humorous, and had the same problem with his elbow. He eventually got full motion back and was back to lifting weights after a year. After some physical theropy, you should be ok.
Reply:It might, but your physical therapist is really what is going to help you. My husband was in a car accident as well and it wasnt until he had physical therapy that is range of motion is actually better then this other leg.
Good Luck :-)
Reply:I was in auto accident 15 yrs ago broke my femur , dislocated my knee smashed my knee cap and damaged ligaments in my knee as well stretched 2 and snapped 1...after over 20 operations on my leg I am still left with an unstable knee that gives way without warning and intense pain most days..my range of movement in my knee joint is approx 95 degrees if I try forcing it further than this the pain is strong enough to make me black out ( the knee has been forced past 95 degrees often as I fall when it gives out) as for saying if the surgery will fix your knee I am sorry but only time will tell ...I wish you all the best and hope that your luck is better than mine was..

Boots like the ones Sophie Ellis Bextor wore in the 'Murder on the Dancefloor' vid???
LOVE the boots that Sophie wore in the vid, but can;t seem to find them anywhere. They were high heeled, about knee length, but had straps and buckles up the leg instead of a full booted leg piece.
10 points to the winner!!!!

These are from "Gina Shoes", a London-based shoe/boot manufacturer. You can see a picture of them in gina.com's flash intro if you wait a minute.
The originals are astonishingly expensive.

A railroad track runs absolutely straight and level for exactly one mile?
Assume that the two ends are fixed but that the track expands by one foot and buckles up in the shape of an arc of a Parabola. How far is the middle of that arc off of the ground?
Please provide a detailed explaination, I would be very grateful:)
A railroad track runs absolutely straight and level for exactly one mile?
5280 feet in a mile, so we can write the parabola as y=-a*(x+2640) *(x-2640), i.e., put the endpoints at x-intercepts (+/- 2640,0) and vertex of the upside down parabola at (0, 2640^2*a). Then integrate the arclength sqrt(1+y'^2) from x= -2640 to x=2640 to get a messy transcendental expression, then solve this equal to 5281 (one foot extra track) to get a=.6385012467 *10^-5 approximately. Then the y-intercept (ht of track) is 2640^2*a which is about 44.50098289 or 44.5 feet up.
Reply:It will be 50ft from the ground.

I love to dress in pretty little satin and lace party dresses. should i go out like this in public?
I’ve always felt more comfortable as a girl. I think I got my need to dress as little girl from my mother. When I was little she used to make me dress in girls clothes. One day when I was 7 and had been naughty, she took me upstairs and made me undress. She laid out a full petticoat which despite its size seemed very light. These clothes had all been worn by my older sister Susan when she was a little girl, and as I was about to find out, would now fit me perfectly. What I didn’t realise was that my mother desperately missed having a little girl around the house, and was using my ‘punishment’ as an excuse to put me into dresses.
As she lifted the petticoat it billowed out. There were several layers of lace-edged net and the innermost layer was made of silk. I was at first been too stunned to say anything. ‘You must be joking, I’m not going to wear that!’ I exclaimed as my mother shook out the dress. It was a pretty yellow satin party dress with oodles of frills and lace. It had puff sleeves, was very short and fastened at the back with a broad satin sash. ‘You have no choice my lad,’ my mother said evenly. ‘Besides, you never know, you just might find that you actually like it,’ she said fondly. Suddenly curious to see just what my mother had in mind, I decided to go along with the game of dressing up for the moment without protest.
My mother then took out a pair of pale yellow satin panties which matched the dress. At the front of the waist was a tiny satin bow, while the rear was covered with layers of lace-trimmed ruffles. Smiling as I put my feet into them, she slid the panties all the way up my legs. She made sure that they were snugly tucked in at the front and fluffed up the ruffles at the back so that they stuck out over each other.
Then it was time to put on my petticoat. Holding it down low she said ‘Come along, in you get.’ I reluctantly stepped into it, and my mother quickly pulled it up over my hips. Then, standing behind me, she tightened the waist cord and tied it in a non slip double bow behind me. ‘Good’ she smiled, ‘Now for your feet.’ She sat me down on the bed, and after opening another draw, pulled on to my feet a pair of white ankle socks that she turned down neatly. Over my ankle socks she slid a pair of white leather sandals with buckles at the side onto my feet, and strapped them on firmly.
She told me to stand up, and while I put my head and arms into it, she placed the dress over my head before she pulled it down over me. One by one she fastened the small pearl buttons at the back of the dress, closing the bodice firmly around me, and then tied the wide sash into a large neat bow behind my back. She was right, with the give on the smocking it fitted me perfectly. I caught sight of himself in a full-length mirror. The dress had been short to start with, but the layers of petticoat raised the edge by several more inches. The slightest movement resulted in the petticoats swaying and rustling as the layers moved against each other. With my bobbed hair, I could easily have been taken for a girl. But wait a minute, I was a boy! Suddenly I panicked. ‘Oh no Mum, please, no!’ I cried in a confused mixture of emotions, and I ran from the room back to my bedroom.

Reply:Dad. shhhhhhh. We we'ren't going to talk about this in public, were we ?
Reply:It's like this. The body is a computer in two versions. The male and female. Then there are society rules and society regulations and acceptance; which dictates how the male and female should live their lives. This influences how a male presents himself and a female herself.
That coupled with influence (ie a mother putting her son in a dress to 'punish' him) has a very deep effect. One of the reasons being is the person has a self-image, an ego that is shaped by the influences growing up and people that have affected them. So a part of you knows the average guy doesn't wear a dress and it confuses the sexual program, it confuses identity etc...difficult to explain...it can be justified by the explaining to yourself it wasn't your decision, so it has been allowed.
The body computer over its life time creates lots of programs that run within it. These programs affect your personality, how you speak, how you act, your perceptions of this world, others perceptions of you in this world etc. You have created a dress program, not through your own initial desires but because you were forced into creating it, you now know what it is like; there is escapism along with other factors.
This dress program can then get associated and confused with other programs so one executes the other. Ie women that are dominant makes you submissive because that is how you have decided it is.
In order to deal with the situation, ie you have to explain it, you had to decide you liked it. You can decide you were forced into it. Whilst there isn't anything wrong with it, I myself think that you are training your computer to run the feminine programs more than the masculine ones.
Then you have had a life that has encouraged the feminine programs to run more than the masculine ones, to the point you could be persuaded even to change your sex.
It's a tricky answer this one. You see to be totally free you have to be who you are. Do what you want to do as long as not hurting others. If you deny who you are and what programs you have created, then your computer goes haywire.
YOU have to decide who you want to be and how you want to be and work on those goals. Even if you still dress you could cut down etc. Never deny who you are (it doesn't work and you start dressing again), but you do need a compromise to fit in with society. Or you can go out being totally who you want, but it would be difficult as not everyone can understand your need to be who you are or accept who you are. Don't let yourself be given a label to live up to, decide for yourself who you want to be. IMHO, your mum has shaped your personality in a way that suited her, now work out how you want to shape it to suit you.
People tend to think within the rules dictated to them. It is people's perceptions and what programs they have inherited that keep everyone all closed off to new experiences. Especially the program 'I am worried what people think of me!".
More people should have Jennifer above's attitude.
