Open Question: serious BF issues! please help! ?
I have posted many things on here in the past, but I always receive the same answer "dump him" Well he SAYS he loves me and always wants to be with me, but his actions and the things he says don't comply! First off we had an apartment together, and had been looking for a cheaper one while we saved up for a foreclosure home, but then he invited over the wrong ppl. to rent out the other room, and we had to leave. SO we only had like one night to do it, and we ended up at his mothers home. I thought we would only be here for a week while we found a new place... 3months later, we are still here! I HATE it! It's nice of them, but the dad is ALWAYS trying to kick us out, and those are my favorite days, 'caz I wish he will arrive to his senses and let us leave! He thinks I "don't adore him" Because I want to leave, and thinks I'm going to move on with my life somewhere else! I'm 20 years old! I do NOT want to be living with my possess parents never mind someones Else's! On top of this, we are at the end of our foreclosure search, since we found someone to help us, but now a new problem, he doesn't think that while he's gone for 2 months he will have enough saved up, which is TOTAL news to me 'caz I thought he had like $6,000 saved for while he's away(in jail, which is his excuse for not renting a place and staying here) he KNOW"S I hate it here. there is only one bathroom that I can use, and his brother (23) can't pee straight! OR clean up pubic hairs, and the dad is always in there, 'caz the mom wants her possess bathroom. Lastly the time he would be away is the time when my sisi, mom niece, thanks giving, christmas, and new years fall, so I was logically thinking of just staying with them for those two months (up north in cali) BUT when my bf heard this he went BALLISTIC!! He wants me to stay in his PARENTS place so that I can visit him, and he thinks my going up north will automatically mean I will cheat on him (which is one of his favorite subjects! Even though he has NO reason to assume I would even think of doing this!) He's so pissed! And every he wants to do is have sex, talk about sex, or jack off when I won't give it to him, EVERY 5 MINUTES!! I'm so not kidding! I don't have much of a sex steer, I would rather do important things. He always thinks that I'm going to do something bad like the girl in whatever movie we are watching, even when the girl is SINGLE, and I don't ever go out, and when we go any where it is together! He doesn't want me to go outside by myself, and when I told him I wanted to start dance classes, he flipped, that he wasn't invited,and I told him I wanted to receive a job, he told me I couldn't keep, one and complains that I don't have one, but would rather complain than me actually have one. ON TOP of that my family doesn't like the fact that I left him for a month, and that he is going to jail which I don't like either! But he AWAYS expects to be invited up to look them with me, which I do NOT want, or understand! He was furious when I went over to the east coast for two weeks to look two of my cousins getting married! I don't ever care what he is doing, 'caz I know he's not doing anything, but he is always finding a reason to be mad, and complains we don't have sex like we used to, but why would I? I don't know what to do or think any more, and he gets PISSED if I'm not spending every my time complimenting him, and worshiping him! Is this normal at every? I KNOW this is long, but every thing's ina nut shell, and he will read thins because he s insecure, and be upset, I am SURE of it! Please answer! *thank you*

Open Question: When will governments and major news media begin to expose the AGW Fraud?
Governments and media now seem to be mostly silent on the issue, especially the science. Even Fox news seems to have very little to say on the matter. Are they afraid they might be wrong and are "pleading the fifth?"

Open Question: Make up controversy! What do you think?
I have done a fair amount of research of makeup and the controversy that the chemicals in it can receive you sick. For example, Triethanolamine is apparently a hormone disrupter. There are a lot more things it causes according to this website http://www.greenlivingonline.com/BeautyFashion/six-makeup-chemicals-to-avoid/. I found this chemical in a several moisturizers I use, in a highlighter (from Benefit which was quite pricey actually), and in a face scrub! I've heard many opinions and I'd like to hear yours. Some people say that everything has hurtful chemicals but they can only truly affect you if they are in their true pure form and that people like celebrities have been using makeup for ever and if make up was truly harmful it would be every over the news. Other people say that every natural products is a big difference.. One last thing..this website apparently has every the brands of makeup so I looked up some and every of them are listed as dangerous! http://www.cosmeticsdatabase.com/index.php?nothanks=1

their party seems to be far from unification also? I have witnessed countless Republicans for Obama forums on line and in the news. I have also seen young Republicans in my state that have organized a huge effort for Ron Paul write-ins. When you factor in the fact that a lot of 'Conservatives' are not glad with McCain as their candidate in the first place and add in a dash of Bob Barr...I think the Republicans still have some unifying of their possess to do.

Open Question: japanese nationality please help!?
my son was born in kanagawa yokohama, japan. I am african american and my tardy husband is japanese. he died before my son was born. as soon as he died I went back to american to identify him and thats were I stayed. so I never reported his birth to the japanese. even here I am not able to receive the proper certification intill I have settled things with his japanese nationality. my son is now 15 and really needs his japanese certificate. my pal who is of japanese nationality, said that it is important to inform the embassy and I thought that maybe if I clam delayed registration due to fathers death thay can give him his certificate, but I'm scared to death for him. I've done some reading and from what I've seen japanese nationality is difficult to receive even if you were born in the region to a japanese parent. more importantly I also read that if the parent should pass way prior to the birth, the child can automatically receive citizenship. what should I do please I pray that someone brings me some good news.

Open Question: Helpful comments on this? Title for story?
I strided off to the drawing room upstairs, the one that looked out onto the historic garden. It was such a odd feeling knowing that I was about to betray my mistress- this is how Judas must have felt, an exhilarating robotic state where empathy and guilt are absent. I knocked on the door. ‘arrive in,’ he said. I was in the room but quite close to the door when I called him. ‘Sebastian, I must talk to you,’ I said, and strode up to him. My master looked nonplussed. ‘Don’t you know it is insolent to call your master by his first name?’ he asked me, standing haughtily and giving a great impression of power. ‘Yes, I do.’ I’d been well aware of my actions and had done them purely because they were wrong and stupid and insolent. My answer took him aback, and he appeared slightly impressed by me. ‘Girl, don’t you know I should flame you? But I shan’t, you have been a great help to me. What is your news?’ ‘Your wife has a lover!’ I blurted out. every of this was so scandalous, and I waited for his response. ‘Who is he?’ my master asked, curiously excited. We both knew that if he were to inform the courts of this, he would win. ‘His name is Charles Abri. He’s a poet. Shorter than you: petit. He has light brown hair, a nice face, and laughs a lot. He can also play the flute,’ I revealed, realising that Charles was wonderful. My master laughed at my girlish eagerness to describe him. ‘He sounds ridiculous. Is he younger than me?’ he asked. From my limited experience of men, this appears to be something they are preoccupied with. He leant forward, adopting the pose of ‘The Thinker’. ‘Yes, he is quite young’ ‘Your age?’ ‘Oh, I am just 17. He is about 24, I should say.’ This amused him and he laughed lightly. ‘More a man for you than your mistress,’ he teased. I really did like Charles- he was like a romantic hero- though having confessed the affair to my master, it made him sound quite silly. Set in the 1920's. Charles is the adore of her mistress's life and she knows that by doing this it would be the ultimate betrayal.

Open Question: How can I view McCain advertisements without supporting him?
I refuse to connect an antenna to my television at home, so I receive every of my news from several talk radio programs, newspapers, and the internet. (mostly cnn.com and the wisconsin state journal on line) So I hear talk of John McCain's campaign adds on the radio, (and how ridiculous they are) but I've never seen one of them. My only hesitation of viewing them on line is that if I were to download one or 'you tube' it, that I might be accused of supporting McCain (which I don't. AT every.), or that proceeds would go to his campaign from me watching one. ryan F, you're a d*ck no, not a duck i don't have an antenna not because i'm paranoid. i just like my home time quietly without television. yeesh.

1) The overweight uneducated loudmouth blowhard guy at work. The one with the inferiority complex who is desperately trying to hold on to his "white collar" job among younger more educated people. Always babbling about "liberals" at the water cooler. 2) The babbling super annoying "military wife". The one that goes off on silly tangents about GWB, McCain, "Freedom", blah blah 3) The "dittoheads" that hear to Rush, Fox News, and Hannatee every day and actually think it's silly or entertaining. 4) The Religious right - which is neither. 5) The redneck Republican whose dad was a Republican, and his dad before him was a Republican. And that's pretty much the REASON he's a Republican. Doesn't know squat about the world or about politics, but By God He's A Republican. Tough choices. I know.

Open Question: Spain's racist towards asian. ?
Last week, Spain’s Olympic basketball team’s advertisement photo for the Chinese company Li Ning Ltd. got exposed to the whole world. In this picture every single athlete is using their index fingers to tug the skin behind their eyes to look Asian. There has been a lot of talk back and forth of whether this gesture is offensive or not. Spokespeople for both the basketball team and Li Ning Ltd. are saying these gestures were meant to be “humorous” and “cute”. This is actually a pretty sensitive topic for me since I’ve studied abroad in Spain and have been subjected to what I think is their ignorance towards Asian people. There was one night in Spain when I was out with a bunch of the other exchange students and a Spanish guy started grinding me while he pulled his eyes back to do the Asian eye pose. This had never happened to me before so I was in complete shock. It felt like someone had just punched me in the chest. Luckily, I was with very strongheaded White females that started yelling at the guy and pushed him against the wall to protect me. This Olympics picture issue comes at a very interesting time for me also since the previous night I went to look the movie, Pineapple Express with some Spaniards. I mentioned how the gangsters in the movie were Korean but I couldn’t understand any of them because their pronunciation was way off. My Spanish pal said, “Well, it was probably the point of the movie to be silly, since every Asian languages sound same anyway.” I did not know how to respond to this. But I do know that this is the Spanish mentality since a similar thing happened to me while I was in Spain. My little host brother was watching a Japanese animation and told me that my people made it. I told him that I wasn’t Japanese but Korean. He said, “Oh, whatever you guys are every the same anyway.” This would be the same as someone saying to an Indian person “Oh, you’re Pakistani right? Oh, you’re not? You’re every the same anyway.” Do you know how offensive that is? One thing I have learned about Spain through people that I have met abroad and here in the States is this: they have a pretty messed up view of Asian people. Every Spanish person I have met that has made a racist statement or gesture about Asian people will tell you that it is in no way meant to be hurtful. When this Olympic picture issue was on the news, my Spanish pal said, “But this gesture does not mean anything in Spain, it’s not offensive.” But for me, I don’t care that it doesn’t mean anything to the Spanish people. What matters is that it means something to me and other Asian people. I would also put this in the same category as someone who is White painting themselves Black and acting Black. People in Spain also do this. I saw this during a festival; little kids would paint their skins black and wear an afro wig as a costume. This would not be tolerated here in the States yet it is okay in Spain. Some journalists walked around in China and showed this offensive picture to random pedestrians and asked how they felt about the picture. Many of them thought it was so nice of the Spaniards to make such Asian gestures. This is ridiculous and doesn’t prove anything since Asian people that live in their possess countries do not know what it is like to live as a minority in another place. This gesture is so degrading and humiliating and it’s because some people make fun of Asians for having tiny eyes. And it wouldn’t be the same if I pulled my eyelids up and made my eyes really big. Would that offend any White people? Not really, since big eyes are considered beautiful. I loved exploring Spain as a country and culture. And I adore that I talk Spanish well enough to communicate with so many diverse people. However, I don’t like the racism I feel towards my heritage from Spanish speaking people. They may not call it racist or offensive but I think it’s more important how something is perceived rather than how it was intended. If Spain wants to become more worldly and they do in fact want to host the Olympics in the future they need to become less culturally ignorant. For the time being, I adore that I currently live in a country that sees the wrong in this gesture. It has been great to look that in the American media, this gesture has been labeled as offensive and racist.

Open Question: What are your thoughts about the 'Farmers' Almanac' forcasting more snow and record low temperatures?
The Farmers' Almanac has an accuracy rate of 80 - 85% when it comes to forecasting weather and climate. They are currently predicting that the climate is going to be far below normal with record levels of snow across the country except for the far west and southeast experiencing close normal climate. Seeing that Denver already got snow this year, does this forecast make sense to you? Do you think that this year is going to be a harder winter than last year? http://news.mainetoday.com/updates/031815.html

Open Question: Where can I go, on the web, to see recent Obama campaign advertisements?
I used to be able to view them on Obama's website but not any more. So, where is a guy to look an ad mentioned in news stories? Someone will say Youtube.com but that place has so many viewer-generated videos that I can't filter them from official Obama campaign ads.

Open Question: So the heid whistlers and managers got together to discuss refereeing in the SPL, what will be the outcome?
http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/scotland/7573537.stm Also master of the understatement Levein stating "It got a bit heated at times but I think that's a good thing". I had a good chuckle at that one let me tell you. But although there is content there, I feel that issues have been glossed over, especially the accountablility part. Will any good arrive from it, or now that there has been A meeting, will it be brushed below the carpet, until the next fine comes along. Not bad 3 thumbs up and you are the only one to answer so far. look, people do adore you.

Open Question: Ongoing Headline: No other countries are taking chances with the US anymore are they?
Syria to Russia: Put your missiles on our soil By The Associated Press and Haaretz Service August 22,2008 Russian media on Thursday quoted Syrian President Bashar Assad as saying ahead of a two day visit to Moscow that Syria was ready to negotiate hosting Russian surface-to-surface Iskander missiles on its soil, which Moscow says are capable of penetrating any missile defense. Syria is interested in purchasing Russia's Pantsyr-S1 air defense missile system, the BUK-M1 surface-to-air medium-range missile system, military aircraft and other hardware, the Russian news agency Interfax quoted a diplomatic source as saying. According to Russian media, Assad offered to host the Russian missiles as a response to a deal signed by Washington and Warsaw this week to deploy elements of a U.S. missile defense system in Poland, which has aggravated Moscow's relations with the West. Assad's visit is likely to become an additional irritant for Washington. In the past, the United States has more than once warned Moscow against selling arms to its longstanding ally Syria. and so on and so on and so on. Will there ever be peace and longstanding trust between the US and other countries again, or will we become totally owned by China and less and less backed by NATO? .

Open Question: Gas and electric up 60%?
The news keeps saying that energy companies are raising their prices to us by 20-30% because the wholesale prices of gas and electric have risen by 50-60% since Feb. Does anyone know why the wholesale price has risen so steeply? Is Gas and electric linked to Oil prices, if so, oil has been coming down, so what is going on there. Are we just being stitched up by the producers of these fuels as they know it is something that we every need. Help me understand, please

Open Question: funny or not........??
what do you think of these jokes.. silly or not. How many racists does it take to screw in a lightbulb? None - they don't want to be enlightened! Don't Leave 'Em Hanging Ralph and Edna were both patients in a mental hospital. One day while they were walking past the hospital swimming pool, Ralph suddenly jumped into the deep end. He sank to the bottom of the pool and stayed there. Edna promptly jumped in to keep him. She swam to the bottom and pulled Ralph out. When the Head Nurse became aware of Edna's heroic act she immediately ordered her to be discharged from the hospital, as she now considered her to be mentally stable. When she went to tell Edna the news she said, "Edna, I have good news and bad news. The good news is you're being discharged; since you were able to rationally respond to a crisis by jumping in and saving the life of another patient, I have concluded that your act displays sound mindedness. The bad news is, Ralph, the patient you saved, hung himself with his bathrobe belt in the bathroom. I am so sorry, but he's dead." Edna replied "He didn't hang himself. I put him there to dry. How soon can I go home?" Stupid Baby Names A mom was sitting on the sofa reading a book when one of her kids walked up to her and said, "Mummy, why is my name Petal?" The mom replied, "Because when you were born, a petal fell on your head." The next baby walked up and asked, "Mummy why is my name Rose?" she replied, "Because when you were born, a rose fell on your head." The last baby walked up to her and said, "BLAS CLAFLAS YIFRASSAM TASSM POONNFFFIINRTY." The mom replied, "Please be silent, Refrigerator." anyone got any other good ones?
