Find Jobs Using Multiple Knowledge Base
How to find a word in multiple pages or how to combine web pages? My job in my workplace is to find a specific word (name or code number) in around 50 web pages and to print that page. I use lot of time for that. Can you suggest a software that can combine all the pages to one so that i can find it easily using my browser (Firefox 3)? OR Is there any browser that at once can search in its all Tabs?
after your bachelors degree-where did you find an entry level job? I graduated with a 4 year degree in marketing in May. I've been searching for a job to use that skill in either event planning,advertising, management or purchasing since Jan. 2008. I've had my resume critiqued and applied to many jobs in multiple states and nothing has come of it. ANY suggestions? Where are all the entry level jobs?
What do I do about not being able to find a job? I have a B.A in Business Administration, 5 years retail experience, 4 years experience as an administrative assistant, and 4 years of data analysis experience. I lost my job in December and have been actively looking for a new one ever since. I have applied to over seven hundred jobs during that time, using multiple online sources, as well as resorting to driving around to retail stores and restaurants and filling out applications and talking to the manager. I've also applied with eight different placement/temporary agencies, all of which told me that they have way more applicants than usual and way fewer jobs than usual. I ran out of money several months ago, lost my apartment, and had to move in with my parents. About 6 weeks ago, i FINALLY found a job, but it is only 12 hours a week, which earns me about $400 a month. That's only enough to keep my car from getting repossessed (and no, I can't sell the car because I owe more on it than it is worth and also would have no way to go to interviews without it, let alone to work if I get a job). I have done everything that a person looking for work is supposed to do and then some, but I still can't get even a low paying job. I lost my home and most of my belonging, I can't buy ANYTHING, I can't go out other than to go to my part time job or to apply for other jobs, and I'm putting an unfair burden on my parents. I NEED TO START WORKING NOW, but I don't know what else I can do! Any advice? Added: I live in the Chicagoland area. And I'm not a guy, I'm a woman. And for what it's worth, I'm 29. I just don't know how to fix the silouette thingie that makes me look like a guy.
Writing a resume: how to add multiple job positions at the same company? Hi, I have difficulty separating multiple job positions that I've worked in the same company. I used to be a Software Developer for 5 years, then I was promoted to Business Analyst and I've worked as a business analyst for the last one year. I want to find a job as a Business Analyst and I need to focus on these responsibilities. How do I add two Job Titles in the resume? I can't really add the years and just use Business Analyst can I? Thanks, Tony
Does this make me Superficial or Judgmental???? How do I find an independent man? To refuse to date men who live at home with parents (of course discluding anyone who are actually taking care of aging parents, and not using that as a fake excuse). I also don't get the "I'm in school" thing either past 25ish, I mean people work and go to school. Adults of all ages, older adults 40+ go back to school all the time, but they don't move back in with mom to do it.... I really try to not be judgmental in my daily living, but I guess as someone who has been completely on her own since 20, often times working multiple jobs, I find this a hard thing to accept. I am only 24, I like older guys, so I'm talking men in late 20s to mid 30s. I am not looking for a rich guy, just a man who can support himself just in a small studio apt. Is it our economy now? I know our economy has took a turn, but I do believe if there's a will, there's a way, side jobs, volunteering for some overtime, etc. Why am I meeting more and more men who live at home? How do I find an independent man???? I do have this same opinion for both men and women. Husker, I am in the midwest, in IL! Where are these men you speak of? Any phone numbers you can pass along to me? LOL

Any helpful sites? or creative ideas? thanks!
My resume shows I worked at multiple jobs for a total of 32 years how can I cut down the total years I worked? My resume shows I had been employed for a total of 32 years at different positions. I have everything dated on my resume for each job. I feel I can not find employment because of age discrimination. Is there something I can eliminate on my resume as far as dates go? The dates on my resume go back to 1975 when I started working and ended at the beginning of 2007. I had three office positions within these dates. The first position was at a company from 1975-1996 alone. If someone has some advice on what to do I could use your help. I thought working for a long period of time was a good thing but I guess now a days it leads to job discrimination. I have been looking for employment for the past year and cannot find any temp,fulltime or part time work because of my age and I want to work. Should I take off my resume the very first job I ever had back in 1975?

Struggling to find a job in Marketing?! Help?!? I currently work as a Marketing Assistant/ Print Media executive for a major national betting company. I deal with all the print material for press on a daily basis. I also oversee and assist with the delivery of in-store marketing campaigns and liaise with print production houses to deliver the marketing material (i.e posters). I also assist with event promotions/ organisations and source marketing 'goodies' such as key rings, pens etc.. Another main part of my job is to create, maintain and update on a daily basis multiple online websites using a CMS. Some of the online campaigns I work with also involved creating and co-ordination direct mail marketing campaigns. For the print side, I have to front meetings to source content for the week ahead, and designate out work loads either to myself or the design team, proactively designing adverts myself. I do all of this and more to a high standard and constantly get praised at work. I have handed my notice in as I am moving to London, but despite nearly three years experience doing the above I cannot seem to find a job doing the same or similar in London. I have applied for over one hundred jobs, all of a similar role (Marketing Assistant) consisting of similar tasks to my current day to day job yet I can't seem to be able to actually get one. I havent managed to secure any interviews yet and I am moving in just over two weeks time. Any advice, or suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks To add... I think it is more difficult as I have no degree and am only 19. However, I was hopefully that three years experience would cancel this out. Thanks
How can I split a PDF file into multiple PDF files automatically where a blank page is found? I've just purchased a Scanjet 5590 scanner, and am in the process of scanning masses of paperwork in the house. The scanner scans bundles of paper using the automatic document feeder to PDF format. What I would really like to do is bundle lots of different documents together and insert a blank or separator page between different documents and then automatically split the generated PDF into individual document files where the blank / seperator page is found in the PDF. I've tried to find software that will recognise separator pages and split PDFs but it all seems to be too expensive! Is there some free or cheap software available that will fit my needs? I don't have Adobe Acrobat so an Acrobat plugin will not do the job. I've found software that will split individual pages but it's not sophisticated enough to offer recognition of blank/separator pages. Many thanks for the suggestion Scott. Foxit Software seem to offer some good tools, but I've contacted them and they don't offer software to split on blank/separator page at the moment. Any other takers?
Is there any technology that will help me find a job faster, besides linkedin, etc ? Google Chrome browser and other Google products (Google voice, Google docs, Gmail, etc) helped me get multiple job offers very soon after I was laid-off from a company. Here is how. When I was given notice of layoff from previous company, I did not have to think about my personal data(documents, spreadsheets, photos, contacts, bookmarks, browser extensions, passwords, etc) being on that company’s computers or that data getting lost, since it was all in my google account. For example, Contacts etc were at Google voice contacts, bookmarks and extensions etc were in my google chrome account. All I had to do, after the lay-off, was head over immediately to Fry’s electronics and buy a new inexpensive laptop(AMD processor), which I got for $299+tax. It had a 15.6 inch screen and Internet capability, that was all I needed to download the Google chrome browser (and Google video chat plugin) onto, and do a login and sync (of bookmarks, extensions, passwords, theme, etc) , and voila - I was in my personalised google account again, and the URL search suggestions etc were meaningful to me. Next, I had to create my resume on google docs and publish it. I got the link to the resume, which I sent out via my gmail account to various companies. The advantage of sending the link to Google document of my resume (instead of an actual Word document) was that not only did I not have to purchase the Microsoft Word program, but that sending the link to the Google document, would lead to lesser total disk space consumption for everyone, and I could modify my resume anytime, and all the folks who viewed my resume at Google docs site would always see the latest-and-greatest copy of my resume. Since I had got my AT&T landline phone disconnected (was using my Google voice number on laptop as the main contact number) and did not have a company mobile phone any longer, I continued to my Google voice number as my contact phone number, so that I could answer incoming phone calls, view missed calls and listen to voice messages (which I could not do with my AT&T landline phone) all from my Gmail dashboard, and from any computer, since I happened to use the library computers also. Anytime I would get an email or a missed call from any of these contacts, I would call them up in a couple of clicks right from gmail (using the Google voice “call phone” feature.) I tried to keep my Inbox zero (ie delete all mails) that were not actionable, and the hyperthreads of conversations helped my quickly respond to thread, and delete the whole thread at once. This helped me send our multiple letters (with linked resume) to multiple folks, have phone calls with them at Gmail. And I would go to company websites and quickly submit resume and other personal details using Chrome auto-fill , which saved me time (and mental energy, which was very much needed then) and I was able to submit resume to lots of companies in a short amount of time. Very soon, I landed multiple job offers. I sold off the laptop (and my data is in the Google Chrome account) so that when I login from my company computer or get a laptop from the new company again, I will have access to my data again at the new company.
do tax payers have a right to speak up about improper use of SSI? A person claims that only doctors, lawyers and the government have the right to judge if a person is entitled to disability given these facts: disability is taken from taxpayer money paying disability to people who don't really need it takes money away from those who do the government asks people to report abuse of the SS system SS says a person must have the INABILITY to do a gainful job (due to a marked/severe disability (except blind) to qualify for disabiilty) http://www.ssa.gov/ssi/text-eligibility-ussi.htm link to report fraud http://www.ssa.gov/oig/guidelin.htm If a person herself says that her disability is MILD-and there is a job she is able to do. is a taxpayer out of line to suspect that this person is not entitled to SSI-BASED on the CLAIMANTS OWN numerous statements (not uninformed opinion)--that her physical disability does not prevent her from walking and engaging in some strenuous activity--and also indicates an average intelligence level--does not have a mental illness that prevents her from being interacting with others-gives no indication of hearing voices or being involved in obsessive complusive or manic behavior, etc... (I am not talking about people who simply say that they have a disability (physical, cognitive, and/or psychiatric) and are unable to work due to their condition--even if there were jobs available...I am talking about people who come right out and say their disabiity is mild-and go on explaining all the things they can do-never giving any idication that there is some aspect of their disability that makes them unable to work ---except disability discrimination --which is not a qualifier for SS...(they in fact specifically state the only reason they are entitled to SSI is because employers discriminate) BTW--I am a PWD-...I have been repeatedly victimized by disability discrimination--in the work place and the community---based on how a certain person describes herself--I am somewhat more disabled than her--yet I have been able to find multiple jobs despite many employers engaging in discrimination...i must have been turned down for dozens of jobs in the process.... for example--this is the claimants statement And I find I have the biggest problems with my CP (mostly leg problems) when I'm working a very labourous job, walking over rough surfaces, and/or for a "long" distance, and lately I feel it has affected my quality of life because many employers won't hire me and that closes doors to advancement. Really my only reason for applying for SSI. This include if the person has an invisible disability (including high functioning autism, mild depression)--and THEY insist it is MILD i do beleive people with some invisible disabilities can pass as non disabled-such as high functioning autism, mild to moderate depression, severe heart/lung problems.... Psychiatric disabilities aren't in quetsion here--i would hope that if someone tried reporting a person for fraud solely because they are able to engage in physical activities--SS would realize (I hope) that the fraud complaint was unfounded as the disability is not based on a physical impairment--and not take it far at all. this is only about people who claim to have PHYSICAL disabilities that entitle them to SSi--but have few physical limitations--or people who claim to not be able to work--but are pulling in a HIGH salary working off the books--such as people who have been caught claiming tehy have a severe back problem--but than work on major construction projects-including lifting heavy supplies repeatedly.....
Can anyone help me find this Manga please? I can't remember the title but it is about this guy who ends up the "master" of this fox girl. In detail, he is unsure about this because though she is beautiful, she is prone to setting him on fire when she gets angry at him. She is one of the most powerful of "dog spirits" but has a large tail that she is embarrassed about. Through the series they take on jobs and other tasks. One thing to note is that he has a cousin who has multiple "partners". I would really appreciate anyone who can help me find this, I used to read it and I really want to finish it. Thanks guys :)

Where do you stand against illegal immigration? Where do you stand against Illegal Immigration? This is an article I found to answer a lot of common myths. 1. It is NOT racist to call these people "illegal aliens" In fact, "illegal aliens" is the only term used in federal laws and regulations to describe criminals (and they ARE criminals) who come into our country illegally. They are not illegal immigrants, not undocumented immigrants, not migrant workers, and not day laborers - they're ILLEGAL ALIENS. 2. Mexico is NOT a poor country. By sending its teeming masses to our country, that status keeps on rising. Mexico has more resources per square mile than the U.S. and plenty of money to take care of its own people. Why should the taxpayers of this country subsidize Mexico's corruption? 3. Illegal aliens are NOT necessarily coming here to work. Lou Dobbs recently reported that 33 percent of our prison population is now comprised of non-citizens. Plus, 36 to 42 percent of illegal aliens are on welfare. So, for a good proportion of these people, the American dream is crime and welfare, not coming here to work. 4. Illegal aliens are NOT doing work Americans won't do. What jobs won't Americans do? In most states, Americans still clean their own houses, do their own landscaping, clean hotel rooms, work in restaurants and fast food places, paint houses, DO CONSTRUCTION WORK, work in airports, etc. - just like we have the past 200 years before "our" government allowed these people to invade our country. There are 18 million Americans who cannot find a job, so illegal aliens who are coming here to work do so at peril to American workers. 5. Illegal aliens absolutely do not contribute more than they cost. Certainly the millions in prison and on welfare aren't contributing a dime to our economy, and the ones who are working often are paid in cash with no deductions for taxes at all. The ones who use fraudulent social security numbers and qualify to pay taxes and social security have so many deductions for dependents that they pay little if any taxes. We have seen them pay less than $100 in taxes and get back $4,000 refunds (thanks to earned income tax credits and multiple dependents).Some bargain, eh? 6. The economy does NOT depend on illegal aliens. Sure, greedy CEOs (making $50 to $150 MILLION a year) and business owners depend on illegal aliens, but due to #3, #4 and #5 above, the only thing illegal aliens are contributing to is the collapse of our economy and making the rich richer. 7. Without illegal aliens, the price of agricultural products and other goods and services will NOT soar. The definitive study on this subject is the University of Iowa's "How Much Is That Tomato?" The study concludes that 'since labor is such a small component of the end-price of agricultural products (which includes price to the growers, transportation costs, processing /storage costs, grocers' profit, etc.), using minimum wage workers instead of illegal aliens would increase prices of agricultural products by approximately 3 percent in the summer and 4 percent in the winter ... hardly the making of $10 heads of lettuce, $25 hamburgers, $1,000 per night Days Inn hotel rooms like the pro-illegal alien lobby claims. 8. Consumers are NOT benefiting from lower labor costs. Again, it's CEOs and business owners who benefit from taxpayer subsidies for their illegal alien workers. The Big Three automakers say they moved so many jobs to Mexico because their labor costs are 80 percent less than in America. Anybody notice the price of new cars spiraling downward under NAFTA? So, before you believe the prevalent pack of lies perpetuated by the illegal alien lobby, which makes billions off this government-sanctioned criminal activity, ask yourself who's saying this garbage and look at what they have to gain. Citizens Against Illegal Immigration, just like Protect Arizona NOW, is an all-volunteer, totally grass-roots organization of citizens who are making nothing and have nothing personal to gain from their efforts to fight this corruption. Whose side are you on, and what are YOU doing to save your state and country from this evil?
Is there a cheaper end sewing/embroidery machine that can handle a few small leather jobs? I'm about to start learning how to sew for crafting, clothing, and costuming. I wanted to get a lower cost yet good sewing/embroidery machine around $700 is my limit for this artistic excursion. There are a few great deals I'm finding, but I have no clue what I'm getting into with these machines. Call me a "jack of all trades" I would love to have a machine with multiple uses and functions for later when I become more familiar with the basics and want to push myself to using a machine like the ones I'm considering to their full potential. I would like a machine that can handle leather (softer leathers for the most part but possibly some heavier ones not layered more than twice as well). This machines main use would definitely NOT be for leather working as I know their are machines geared just for that purpose, but the occasional ability to handle leather would be fantastic! I have posted my interest in the Brother LB-6800PRW because it is cheaper and has a great package deal other buyers on Amazon are raving about along with the quality of the machine itself. And the Brother LB6800PRW Heavy-duty because (again a novice due to my lack of understanding and ability to find anything concrete on these machines online) the "Heavy-duty" made me think it would be able to stand the leather even though it does not have the nice accessories the other Brother comes with. I am not a fan of any make or model, I would just want it to be able to take a flash drive/USB or other storage card from my computer and make a design. The Janome's are beautiful but so expensive, and the same can be said for most of the others. I have seen much posted that makes me want to stay way from newer Singers, and even the Brother company, but the prices are very alluring. If anyone knows a good place to direct me for deals lesser known than Amazon, NextTag, or eBay, or even a well rounded sewing/embroidery machine that they stand behind with the functions in possibility I have listed, please inform me. Any help from a hardcore/long time crafter would be of great help to me as a novice to this realm of crafting :) Thanks so much!

How can we find a balance in our educational system? It seems like the attitude on education seems to shift between one of two extremes, depending on who you're talking to. One group seems to believe that the only value in education is direct job training, vocational programs to earn practical job skills, while the other groups sees such programs as limiting and encourages a focus on pure academics. Both approaches are flawed, in my opinion. It's definitely important that students be able to leave college with the skills and credentials to land a well paying job which will help them become financially independent, but it is also important that students use the college experience to expand their horizons and learn new things, even if this knowledge isn't necessarily going to help them get a job in the future. So why do people think in terms of those two extremes? Why do people seem to think that students who aim to be practical and responsible have to sacrifice the things they are interested in? When you consider that a person entering the workforce today is expected to have multiple careers throughout the course of their lifetime, certainly its important to have credentials for their planned career, but it is also useful for people to have background knowledge in other subjects and areas of interest as well, which is something that "liberal arts" education can give them a solid foundation in.

How can I lower my monthly student loan payments? I had to pay for all 4 years of college using student loans, and now I'm paying them back @ $700/month. Obviously, I want this payment reduced, especially while I try to find a better job than the one I got right out of college. They're all from Sallie Mae, but they're multiple loans. Can I consolidate multiple loans from the same company? They all have separate interest rates. Is there anything else that I can do to lower my monthly student loan payments?
I am desperate to start some type of home business so I can stay home. I have multiple health issues.? I have missed a lot of work because of my illnesses. Plus I have pressure from both my husband & mother in law to stay working. They say that today's families have to have both husband and wife working. I love the work I do but it is too hard to go to work everyday and take care home too. Plus my job is a very high stress job. I work in insurance claims. I am pretty crafty but I can't cook. I enjoy books also. I'm a pretty good typist but I think that is a thing of the past with everyone so computer literate now days. I have been selling something on ebay but that is mostly used stuff I found around the house. Does anyone have any ideas?
How can I motivate my boyfriend to apply for a GREAT job that he is COMPLETELY qualified for!? My boyfriend has a bachelor's degree in Television Studies, which he obtained in 2008. Right now, he works in at a warehouse. He actually makes decent money, but he *hates* his job. It's only 15 minutes from our apartment, though. I found a job online a few weeks ago that I really want him to apply for! I told him about it and he seemed interested, but didn't want to apply because it is 45 minutes from our apartment. He has all the qualifications and then some! This would be a great job for him! Well, I just checked and the job is still open. In my mind, he is crazy for not applying! I know that the commute is a bit much (especially in the winter!), but I don't see what he has to lose. He complains about his current job and boss every day. Here's the job ad: Master Control Operator "If you don't like desk jobs and like to be multi-tasked then we've got the perfect job. You must be incredibly organized, follow detail and be efficient. Responsibilities include using multiple PC's and servers in our control room. Full time & part-time positions available. Broadcast experience and/or technical/computer orientation are helpful, full on-site training offered. Send resumes to ABC22/FOX44, Attention: Human Resources..." Did I mention it's at the ABC/FOX station? Ugh! I can't stop thinking about what a bonehead he is for ignoring this! I don't want to nag him about it, but HOW CAN I MOTIVATE HIM? mrreliable3599: I'm sorry that no woman has ever loved you. Try not to make it so obvious.
should I quit my job? Im 18 and a freshman in college. I currently work at walgreens, and I have been there for 2 years 1 month. So I have been there a long time. I am just getting so sick of them, I dont know how I lasted that long to be honest, meaning I dont know how I put up with their crap for that long. I have been saying the whole time ive been working there that ive been wanting to quit. I just never went through with it. Now im seriously thinking about it. My boss will be a total jerk when scheduling hours. I tell him the days I cant work ( because of school and other commitments) and he just doesnt get it. He will purposely schedule me anyway on days that I cannot work. Then I tell him over and over again, put it in the computer and then he acts like no one ever told him anything. Its total bu**sh*. He will give me 30 hours a week, when I am a full time student. I told him max 20-25 and he totally disregards what I say, even though there are plenty of people that I work with that need the hours more than I do. They say I do a good job so Im guessing thats why I get more hours, but I dont need that many. Give them to other people that need the money. Not me. He doesnt care even if we talk to him. I am just getting so sick of not being heard. He even goes and changed the schedule without telling anyone, so whenever I have arrangements to switch shifts with someone else so that they can cover for me, he changes it which makes it impossible for us to switch days with co-workers. Of course I am not going to leave until I have another job lined up, because it is easier to get hired when employed. But I seriously cant take this crap anymore. I know no job is perfect but these kinds of scheduling problems are a little rediculous. The only thing is that I dont mind the job. I dont mind working, its just the people I work with are making it very difficult. And it sucks that I have to find a new job because this was my first one, and Ive gotten way too comfortable to leave. I know how to do everything well, and im confident now. I dont want to learn everything at a new job. Even though i know we will switch jobs multiple times in life, it sucks getting used to a new environment. Its the only thing thats stopping me. i can handle school and work no problem, I did it in high school and made excellent grades. its just in college this is a bit too much.
Can a company director start legal proceeding personally for breach of contract? I recently accepted voluntary redundancy from my job. I agreed to the redundancy on the condition that the non-compete clause would not enforced (to aid in my job search and avoid any conflict of interest). This was agreed to on the condition that I did not solicit or canvass their clients directly. I wasn't able to find a job so set up my own company (nothing posh and it hasn't even made a profit yet!) I was approached by on of my old clients and agreed to deal with them alongside my ex employer and other agencies. Without wanting to give too much information away, I basically worked for an estate agency who had lots of clients with multiple properties who were using multiple agencies. So, my ex employer has gone back on our verbal agreement and start legal proceedings against me personally for breach of the non-compete clause. However, my contract of employment was, obviously, between the company and I. He has started the proceedings in his own name (not the company name). Can he do this? If so, does anyone know why he would do this? He also only owns about small stake in the company with his wife being the majority shareholder. She is not named as a claimant at all. Any help would be great! I hope that all made sense ;) I have just realised that my username makes my profession pretty obvious!!
What do you think innocent man arrested illegal using his ss# woman owes 3300 Back Taxes is right illegals? Is it right for illegals to take and use SS#'s belonging to Americans only if it is for a better life and morally what is an illegals postition on stealing someone aother's id and causing them undue hardship ? Do the illegals care about about the damage cause by stealing id's belonging to another or is it alright as long as its better's their life ? is right illegals can do this and many times they cannot even be deported ? Nobody likes getting a letter from the IRS. So imagine Amanda Bien's reaction last Valentine's Day when the agency wrote to demand $3,300 in back taxes. For jobs she never worked. Five of them. In multiple states. A Lenexa, Kan., Taco Bell. A Wendy's restaurant. Two Target stores, one in California. The Engineered Air manufacturing plant in De Soto, Kan. Someone, somewhere, got Bien's name and Social Security number and gave it a workout. The IRS may suspect that multiple people are using the same Social Security number, but the agency doesn't investigate ID theft. Local police and prosecutors cannot deport illegal immigrants they arrest.Bien, a wife and mother, is completing her student teaching, but had to delay her credentialing when she applied for a new Social Security number. She's lost sleep, and she worries that even more people are using her identity. Many victims don't learn of the crime until their credit score drops or a loan is denied. In one recent Kansas case, a man found out when he was arrested for a crime committed by an illegal immigrant using his identity.http://www.azcentral.com/news/artic... Is it right for illegals to take and use SS#'s belonging to Americans only if it is for a better life and morally what is an illegals postition on stealing someone another's id and causing them undue hardship ?

How do I use fileReader to find a string in a text file? I am working on an appointment book program for my java class, I am not sure how I am going to go about this yet but here is my idea: Use a filewriter to put the appointments into one text file, each appointment prefixed by a string of numbers. I plan on using the filereader to find where the string of numbers is in the file and print out whatever is after it. I need to have it be able to find more than one instance though, because the user will be able to have multiple appointments on the same day. Any ideas? Here is the assignment if it helps: Implement an On-Line Appointment Book Based on the Following Specifications: A. Implement a superclass called Appointment and subclasses OneTime, Daily, Weekly, and Monthly. An Appointment has a description (for example, “Meet with interviewer about job”) and a date and time. Write a method occursOn(int year, int month, int day) that checks whether the appointment occurs on that date. For example, for a monthly appointment, you must check whether the day of the month matches. Then, in a TestAppointment class, fill an array of Appointment objects with a mixture of different kinds of appointments. Ask a user to enter a date and print out all appointments that occur on that date. B. Improve your Appointment program by giving the user the option to add new Appointments. The user must specify the type of the appointment, the description, and the date and time. C. Improve the program further by letting the user save the appointment data to a file and reload the data from a file. The saving part is straightforward: make a method saveApptData. In it, save the type, description, date, and time to a file. The loading part is not so easy. First determine the type of the appointment to be loaded, create an object of that type, and then call a loadApptData method to load the data. As always, the source code must be indented properly and contain comments that describe important parts of the algorithm.
Do you agree with any of these statements? Because the pro-illegal alien lobby has a bottomless pit of money and can hire PR people to spin (and fabricate) anything any way, there are an undue number of myths and lies that the public (and many politicians) has bought into. The FACTS are: 1. It is NOT racist to call these people "illegal aliens" In fact, "illegal aliens" is the only term used in federal laws and regulations to describe criminals (and they ARE criminals) who come into our country illegally. They are not illegal immigrants, not undocumented immigrants, not migrant workers, and not day laborers - they're ILLEGAL ALIENS. 2. Mexico is NOT a poor country. By sending its teeming masses to our country, that status keeps on rising. Mexico has more resources per square mile than the U.S. and plenty of money to take care of its own people. Why should the taxpayers of this country subsidize Mexico's corruption? 3. Illegal aliens are NOT necessarily coming here to work. Lou Dobbs recently reported that 33 percent of our prison population is now comprised of non-citizens. Plus, 36 to 42 percent of illegal aliens are on welfare. So, for a good proportion of these people, the American dream is crime and welfare, not coming here to work. 4. Illegal aliens are NOT doing work Americans won't do. What jobs won't Americans do? In most states, Americans still clean their own houses, do their own landscaping, clean hotel rooms, work in restaurants and fast food places, paint houses, DO CONSTRUCTION WORK, work in airports, etc. - just like we have the past 200 years before "our" government allowed these people to invade our country. There are 18 million Americans who cannot find a job, so illegal aliens who are coming here to work do so at peril to American workers. 5. Illegal aliens absolutely do not contribute more than they cost. Certainly the millions in prison and on welfare aren't contributing a dime to our economy, and the ones who are working often are paid in cash with no deductions for taxes at all. The ones who use fraudulent social security numbers and qualify to pay taxes and social security have so many deductions for dependents that they pay little if any taxes. We have seen them pay less than $100 in taxes and get back $4,000 refunds (thanks to earned income tax credits and multiple dependents).Some bargain, eh? 6. The economy does NOT depend on illegal aliens. Sure, greedy CEOs (making $50 to $150 MILLION a year) and business owners depend on illegal aliens, but due to #3, #4 and #5 above, the only thing illegal aliens are contributing to is the collapse of our economy and making the rich richer. 7. Without illegal aliens, the price of agricultural products and other goods and services will NOT soar. The definitive study on this subject is the University of Iowa's "How Much Is That Tomato?" The study concludes that 'since labor is such a small component of the end-price of agricultural products (which includes price to the growers, transportation costs, processing /storage costs, grocers' profit, etc.), using minimum wage workers instead of illegal aliens would increase prices of agricultural products by approximately 3 percent in the summer and 4 percent in the winter ... hardly the making of $10 heads of lettuce, $25 hamburgers, $1,000 per night Days Inn hotel rooms like the pro-illegal alien lobby claims. 8. Consumers are NOT benefiting from lower labor costs. Again, it's CEOs and business owners who benefit from taxpayer subsidies for their illegal alien workers. The Big Three automakers say they moved so many jobs to Mexico because their labor costs are 80 percent less than in America. Anybody notice the price of new cars spiraling downward under NAFTA?
Do people with bad behavior have the right to be picky? Some of the men I know have good jobs and have gained financial success, but they have bad attitudes and will date multiple (I call it USE) women at one time. I also think they have insecurity issues. But they feel they can be "picky" about the women they choose. Does that mean they can have high standards because they can afford to.....or does it mean they have the means to get any woman they want for ANY reason? I find their behavior deplorable.
LEGITIMATE JOB for college graduate ===================? OMG, I can't seem to find a legitimate job online. I'm using Monster, CareerBuilder, HotJobs, etc. and a lot of them seem to be scams.

I am confused about my feelings for my best friend? My best friend is like a brother to me. And I can't get mad at him. Its like there's some aspect of his personality that redirects any negativity I feel towards him back onto me. Because of this, whenever he has something going well for him, and I get jealous (which is a lot--I'm kinda dumpy, just got out of a relationship, not talented, struggling to find purpose in life and he's an attractive musician with multiple jobs lined up and a girlfriend), I get super depressed and filled with self-loathing. Basically, its at the point now that whenever I'm with him, I feel terrible because of how great he is, and when he's away, I feel depressed because I am left to examine my life...which kinda sucks. I know I'm a petty person, and things are compounded by the fact that I am pretty sure I have feelings for him (I'm bi, he's straight, and when I told him, he said he was ok with that, which I'm not sure about). Basically, I feel like he's some kind of drug for me, and wherever he is in relation to the rest of my life, I feel depressed at some level just because I know him. I don't want to be so petty, and he doesn't know how I feel, but basically, I need to find a way to stop using him as a tool to measure my own life. Its ridiculous--he's had a hard life, just dropped out of school, and is currently sifting through job offers and hanging out with either me or his girlfriend. I on the other hand have lead a pretty easy, albeit introverted and sheltered life, have graduated college with honors, and now spendmy time working part time for minimum wage and looking for another job. I have nobody else to spend time with, having broken up with my girlfriend a few weeks ago (these issues with my friend being a part of the problem). I need to maintain this friendship, because its really one of the few good things I've got going for me, but how can I possibly do this while internalizing these feelings without ruining our friendship?

Can someone please clarify this Business question for me thanks? This is the question (Summarize your recommendations for this corporation in terms of what they should be looking for in their results from the point of view of QUALITY ASSURANCE and MANAGEMENT STRUCTURE) to improve profitability in its manufacturing operations. The company had very good metrics for managing plant and assembly operations. The problem was that each facility used different methodologies for standards development and line balancing. While these techniques had resulted in productivity gains, management believed more significant and consistent results could be achieved using a proven, consistent methodology. For the initiative to be truly successful, the company would need to change not only the technical side of its manufacturing process, but also the company culture, including how its employees performed their jobs. Prior to the project, the typical line re-engineering took an average of six months to complete and implement. With such a significant savings opportunity, the company wanted to realize the savings much faster than six months per line. To accelerate the realization of this cost savings opportunity, the company reviewed proposals from several consulting providers before choosing you to assist them with the improvement initiative. To begin, the company wanted to balance assembly lines in three separate facilities. This would allow the company to increase assembly line productivity, while creating a consistent balancing tool for multiple facilities. The initiative would also provide the companies engineers with a tool to evaluate method improvement ideas in a timely and accurate manner, and offer tools, training and documented processes for supervisors to follow in other manufacturing plants. To achieve success, the company needed a consistent methodology that would allow workers across its manufacturing facilities to “speak the same language,” by using the same tools and techniques. so im really not sure what this question is asking. but this is what i got so far, is it right and am i on the right track and also can you also give me more ideas to add thanks alot This is what i got (From what I read you need my recommendations in the following areas: Quality Assurance and Management structure. Let me start off stating what Quality Assurance is. QA is an operational activity whose primary focus is to make sure that the firm’s overall quality objectives are met. It is a great idea to make QA plan for every project to make sure the final products are of the upmost quality. First you need to find out what needs to be done. Next you need to make sure you know your quality objectives for the product. After you discovered that it is good to write down all the roles and their responsibility for the project and give the workers their roles. It is important to make sure after assigning their roles they understand everything it’s asking of them. Lastly set a deadline in which these roles are to be complete. If you follow this the quality of the product will never change.)

Do you feel that I am being taken advantage of by my family, or am I just overreacting???? Heres the background---- My brother and his friend needed a place to stay while trying to find jobs in FLorida. My parents said only he could stay at their house, not the friend. He told his friend that it was OK to park in the driveway of my house (it is vacant because we moved out and put it up for sale) and sleep in his van. Also he told his friend that he could use my address to get a drivers license. The only way I found this out is because I have got pawn tickets in my mailbox where this guy has pawned merchandise. I dont like this friend of his cause he is hot headed and a thug. When I confronted my brother about it, he got offended because I didnt want his friend using my address or living out of his van in my driveway!!! Which in turn caused a big fight. He told me to leave my parents house (which hes just staying there) and never come back (multiple times). My parents did not step up and even say anything to him about this.. Am I wrong for not talking to them?
How can I make myself stand out amidst many applicants for a job? I have been out of college for 4 years now. My first year out of college I found a job in my field of study (teaching) but I had to move to a new area where jobs were scarce and had to take a job in a different field. I have been at my current job for the past 3 years. There is now a job opening in my degreed field, but when I went to turn in my resume, I found there are multiple applicants for this job -- as expected. At my current job I have gained a lot of experience in audio/visual technology, including sound, media, computers, projection, etc. How can I use this to my advantage and make myself stand out amidst older, seasoned professionals? My husband says I should make a presentation on the computer or show them a recent video-editing project I have done. Is this a good idea?
How should I do my sideburns? I shave using a wilkinson sword quattro, and have normal straight sideburns, but as I find it difficult to do sideburns with a multiple blade razor (this one has 4 blades) I end up using a cheap disposable one just for sideburns.. This does the job but is not close shave at all, and looks funny when I have a decent close shave from my quattro.. Can someone advise me on a decent way to shave sideburns, whether a normal razor or an electric (I wouldn't mind buying an electric if not too expensive, and got shave - but would need help on choosing a model please) Thanks
Program Launcher? At my job we use a series of programs in order to do our jobs. What I can't seem to find is a program that I can hit a combination of buttons or automatically launches the applications when I login.

Careers in sociolinguistics? Right now I speak English and Spanish, and I'm learning Italian. My interest is in the sociolinguistics of ALL of these languages, but I'm not sure what I can do with that. I've been looking online to try and see what kind of careers that would open up to me, but all I can find is the generic list of every job in existence where it would be beneficial to speak another language. Can anyone help me out with some careers that actually FOCUS on sociolinguistics? If possible, something I could do using multiple languages? If it's not too much to ask I'm also wondering what kind of interships, etc, I should be looking for. Thanks so much!! :) I know that knowing a lotta languages isn't necessarily a prerequisite for a career in sociolinguistics. I'm not learning languages to help me with ENGLISH linguistics, I'm interested in sociolinguistics in ALL of these languages. Sorry if I wasn't clear on that. :)

Media Tech Institute Houston TX! Multiple questions about the school? Im looking to go to Media Tech for the Audio Engineer program For me to be able to go ill have to work full time and use Fafsa therefore I really don't want to waste my money if this school is just going to rip my off. from what i heard from people is that trade schools, private colleges, etc like Media tech is when you graduate most business will not recognize schools like therefore not giving you a chance which then leads you into debt bc you cant payoff your loans. So first off has you or anyone you know graduated from Media tech if so then would you recommend this school? after you graduate did they help you find a job? and/ or Were you able to get a decent job that hired you even though you were just certified in what you went to media tech? Did this school put you in debt b/c you could not pay back school loans? Is there a school in houston tx area that you would recommended?
Bought a used car from dealer, now find out it was completely repainted with crappy paint job.? So on 8/30 I bought a subaru wrx with 20k miles from a nissan dealer. I was told it was a clean title and was showed a clean carfax. Well just yesterday I noticed some fisheyes in the paint on the rear drivers door. I was a little mad because i figured it had been repainted and i was not notified. Well today I want to a professional auto body shop. {Top of the line, this place is like 6k for a paint job.} And was told by multiple people that the entire car had need repainted, they showed me blemishes, placed that were taped off, sanding marks and so on. I called the dealer and told them they lied to me, but they will not do anything. They claim they didnt know so they are acting like its not their problem. (Car was sold with just the factory warranty) (I did not buy the return policy which was 3 days anyway) So my question is what can I do? If anything. I am really mad, any input will be appreciated.. Oh crap... I did not think to have a mechanic look it over since it was at a dealer. I thought dealers would only sell clean cars to protect themselves. But i guess not.
Wage Garnishment in MN? I have finally found a job after 5 years of suffering. I had to use multiple credit cards to feed myself and lost my home. Also during this time I found out I had diabetes. I have over $40,000 in debt in credit card and medical bills and my credit is extrmely poor. I am eventually going to file bankruptcy. However, my question is not about bankruptcy or my credit. My question is about wage garnishment. I have a court judgement against me from a creditor. I've been protected from the garnishment because I've been collecting unemployment benefits and have been on food stamps. I have read that I am still protected from the garnishment if I've been on any kind of assistance (i.e. food stamps) in the last 6 months. I guess my question is how long am I protected from the garnishment because I've been on assistance in the last 6 months??? Please only intelligent answers...thank you Also, I recieve paper checks so I don't have to worry about them getting into any bank accounts because I don't have any. I have done A LOT of reading on this subject and it always says they cant garnish my wages if I've been on assistance for the last 6 months...which I have i.e. food stamps, unemployment benefits. It never says ANYWHERE how long I'm protected from the garnishment. Is it 6 months, is it 60 days, is it forever? Please tell me.........
what is the best way to increase multiple server performance ? Hi, first of all, sorry for my bad english. i'm in a school project on how to collaborate multiple servers to handle a single ultra-heavy-process, and i'll be using linux. well i've been searching for some time, and i found linux virtual server (www.linuxvirtualserver.org), cloud computing on ubuntu server, and some other server virtualization. but.. as far as i can understand them, they use almost the same method of "load balancing" technique, which is looks like this link http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AtfddGjtG4bQKUJMyTSCD4EjzKIX;_ylv=3?qid=20091019103935AAy78mF (from the link, if i've 3 servers, jobs are divided into 3 servers, like job 1 to server 1, job 2 to server 2, job 3 to server 3) so.. is there any other way to increase server performance, to be something like this : if i've 3 servers, and each of them has 2 ghz of CPU speed, and 2gb of ram. so i'll get 1 single super server (as virtual server) with 6 ghz of CPU speed and 6 gb of ram. ??? plus, i have another question.. 1. what OS should i use?, if linux, which distro?, well, free is better.. any helps will be much appreciated... Thanx !!..

What brand of permanent dye is like a red orange similar to Reba Mcentire, Angelica Bridges, or Wynonna Judd? I have already dyed my hair with semi-permanents in this color and know that this is the one I want, now I just need to find it. I know most people will just recommend I go to hair salon but I like trying these thing on my own, I've been dying and cuting people's hair including my own for a while now and I just seem to have a better luck and understanding when I try it on my own, and I have done some pretty complicated dye jobs. I'm looking for a bright red probably closer to orange then anything else Here are some of my inspirations Wynonna Judd, Reba Mcentire, Angelica Bridges, kari byron, april Macie. This shade isn't common so I doubt I'll find it in a box, but If anyone is willing to give me advice on mixing and creating colors that would be really helpful. I'm cautious with my coloring and use of chemicals and I will test it multiple times before I do something stupid and cover my whole head. But I am relaxed enough to take some unconvential advice. So any suggestions..
Good banks with multiple branches in Canada? Due to work, I'm moving from the US to Ontario, Canada. I'll probably be there from 1 to 3 years or maybe more (depending on various factors). I highly doubt there is a Bank of America up there. I'm so use to having a BoA on every corner to me. Now, I have to find a bank that has multiple branches like BoA. I find comfort in the fact that I can walk into my bank to handle disputes and deposit funds in any major city and in any state. Yeah, I'm old school, but that's how I roll. Can anyone recommend me a good highly well known Canadian bank with multiple chains? Before anyone post "Google it" or "Ask your job for info", I have. No one in the office knows anyone in Canada or what's up there. As for the google research, I want personal experiences on which well known banks you found very professional and have the best rates and such.

Desktop Master/Slave WD Caviar Confusion- White Flag up here? I just bought a new desktop and fortunately I still have the old one here. Meanwhile my son & DIL desktop went kaput. Their's has multiple blown capacitor problems and it looks like it is probably 'toast'. Meanwhile, they need a computer to use and things off of their hard drive due to lack of backups. So, I have their PC here and my old one will do the trick for them I hope. The two desktops were bought the same year and are very close in in age etc. My PC had a WD Caviar EIDE master and a Seagate slave. I pulled the Seagate slave out of mine and then I took their only (master) WD Caviar out with the intention of making it a slave in my working old desktop to put things on a external USB drive for them. And also to let them use my old PC until they can find jobs again. Here is my query.... Taking the Master WD Caviar out of my old PC, the pins are set in the factory position right right next to the ribbon plug. My Seagate had the jumper pulled & taped to the top of it as it should be for the Seagate slave situation. Now, ironically both of the Western Digital Caviar's have identical model numbers WD800BB. I am confused because the way I am seeing things the hard drive I pulled from my PC had the jumper in the default (null) position and it was the master. It looks as if that might have been wrong all along and it worked for years that way. How could it have been running as a master without the pins in the middle position? And... now I am unsure of where to put the jumpers on my old WD which will remain as the master and my son's identical WD which was their only drive and will temporarily become (hopefully) a slave on my old machine so we can get at the things that need to be backed up and also useable for them. If it helps my old pc mainboard is ASUS P4B533 BTW: I am paranoid about backing up but apparently he did not learn that lesson well from me. <g> Thanks for any and all help in advance, Donna
What should I do -- stay in MD or move to FL? So here is the back story: I just graduated from college, and recently moved to Silver Spring, Maryland. I just received a position as a hostess at a Red Lobster so I can make some money while I'm trying to find a job I can use my psychology degree for. Additionally, it is important to know that my mother is ill with Multiple Sclerosis, and likely has around 6 months left and my grandmother died last month. My aunt is/was caring for both of them in Florida. Now here is the issue: I'm not completely happy in MD. I recognize I haven't given it a lot of time yet, I just don't know if it's right for me. And then there's the issue of my family down in Florida. My aunt is lonely without my grandmother, and could really use my help down with my mother. But I have a responsibility to my roommate in MD (who is also my best friend) to make sure she has a place to live that is good and okay for her. I suppose I'm looking for another opinion and point of view on the situation. What would you do if you were me?
Most Beneficial Minor for a Graphic Design Major? I'm a junior double-majoring in Graphic Design and French. I'm just about finished with my French major and scheduled to finish on time with my Graphic Design major. I'm not really interested in going any further with French or using it as a career. What are some good potential minors to go along with my Graphic Design major (or I guess for French as well)? Aside from Marketing/Advertisement of course, which my school does not offer as a minor, only a major. With the employment market the way it is, I'm beginning to fear what might happen if I cannot find a Graphic Design job when I need one. I want to be the best possible candidate for a job and have multiple options if I find myself stranded.
Is this part of the misconception that illegals pay taxes? Imagine being this poor woman in California! Schmierer realized she had a problem in February 2005, when she got a statement from the IRS saying she owed $15,813 in back taxes — even though she had not worked since her son was born in 2000. Perhaps even more surprising, the taxes were due from jobs in Texas. Schmierer called the IRS and learned that numerous people were using her Social Security number. Officials said the erroneous balances would be eliminated, but the agency would have to correct the problem again in future years. "They told me they couldn't do anything else," Schmierer said. IRS officials declined to talk about Schmierer's case, citing privacy laws. Schmierer has done a little investigating of her own, combing through tax bills sent to her for names and locations of employers who hired people using her number. She has also obtained more than 200 W-2 and 1099 tax forms that contained her Social Security number but different names. Schmierer provided copies of the records to The Associated Press. People used her Social Security number from Florida to Washington state, at construction sites, fast-food restaurants and even major high-tech companies. Some opened bank accounts using the number. Most of the people worked multiple jobs in the same year, though some remained at the same company for several years. The top wage earner made $39,465, but most reported income of less than $15,000. Though impossible to verify in every case, information gleaned from criminal investigations, tax documents and other sources suggested that most of the users were probably illegal immigrants. Schmierer filed a police report after learning one man had used her information in 2003 at janitorial and landscaping companies near Haltom City, Texas. Investigators found the man, who told officers he had bought a fake Social Security card at a flea market, according to a police report. He was not arrested. Schmierer tracked down other people, finding that her number had been used to get work but not to access her credit card or bank accounts. What started as a hassle turned into a major headache earlier this year when she sought work through a temporary agency that learned her Social Security number had been used by a woman in Texas two years earlier. The agency could not hire Schmierer for more than a month while the situation was clarified. "How do you prove that you are you?" Schmierer said. "It's like you are guilty until proven innocent." While returning from a trip to Mexico with her husband last year, Schmierer was detained for four hours in a Dallas airport by immigration officials. The reason: a woman using her Social Security number was wanted for a felony. Dani, you speak the truth, and imagine how fair is that to the kids who legitimately belong here? To the first woman your husband is a lawbreaker, and you said yourself he does not work, what about all the years he did not pay, I know that he owes for years he worked under the table. Self employment tax is 20% I know you are not paying that, I hope you get audited. As for the other guy, there is plenty of food in Mexico, they need to get jobs and work there and support their familys there.
Most economical car for people with mobility disability ? A friend of mine has had multiple spinal operarions and a hip replacement and they find it difficult to access and get out of low profile vehicles. They are also on a very tight budget as their disability have meant they have only a low paid job. What is the most economical and easy to use in terms of getting in and out vehicle (either 2nd hand or new) for someone in this position ?
Learning Multiple Languages? I'm an American and thinking of learning a couple of languages to help me become more diverse. I will be graduating from college soon and think it would be a good idea to pick up a language to help my chances in finding a good job. So my first question is: What languages are employers most looking for in candidates? And second: Should I go to school for this or should I learn it on my own using the Rosetta Stone software that is so highly praised? Thanks
Is the word WOG racist ? The word "wog" in Australian slang translates as something you spit from your throat.. somehow European migrants have been branded as "wogs". 10 minutes ago on Channel 7's Sunday show they stated that the word "wog" is no longer a racist term.. as a migrant i find this HIGHLY disturbing. Especially since I can go to prison for insulting a homosexual, a jew or a black man by using any number of foul and racist terms against those groups, words such a n*GG*r I would never utter nor would anyone these days.. YET it's STILL OK to call a European migrant to Australia.. a WOG !! so who think the word Wog should be a banned word as it is clearly offensive and belittling to European migrants who have been disadvantaged in Australia due to their second rate citizenship. I'm not a wog, I thought I was an Aussie once !! With Sunday rpogram now STATING in support of that silly Chk Chk Boom girl.. now that she has a singing career in waiting.. now even the Sunday program is excusing the use of the word wog and actually said.. it is now not a racist term !! looks like we'll be going back to the 60's again... i'll be a wog.. and you can be skippy.. OR can be all just be aussies one day ?? after all.. I've given my life already for this country .. having worked multiple jobs since age 11 and damaged half my body in the process of earning those $12 hourly paychecks.. my first pays i was earning $2.26 per hour !! my mum was making pasta in italian restaurants before Australians knew what olive oil was.. before australians even ate tomatos which Italians brought ot Australia.. along with most of the other fruit and vegetables you now have on the farms.. they came from EUROPE !! wogland !! Australia's entire urban cutlure came from Europe infact.. so did America's culture.. America was after all named after an Italian called Amerigo Vespucci and both Australia and USA were DISCOVERED by Europeans but colonised by England.. but still.. European sailors discovered these lands.. how is it we end up as just WOGS now ?? we built half the country !! so hows about a bit of respect ?? can we ban the word WOG !! 25 years later.. am i just a wog am I ?? Boli and anyone else who says "get over it" .. then is it OK to call a blackman a "N*gG&r" then say.. "its just a word-get over it" ?? the word WOG has always been used in a derogatory manner as far back as WW1 by soldiers fighting in Europe who obviously hated Europeans at the time. Hundreds of millions of Chrsitian Europeans died.. and now i am a wog you say ?? don't think so !!
Is there a characterization for this type of low self-esteem? Recalcitrant behavior, opposition to compliments? As I was growing up, I was always heavily applauded by my parents. My father has a physics PhD and was accepted into Yale University. Of course, high prestige goes along with superior grades, especially with Asian cultures. Teachers and doctors alike were tremendously impressed by my intelligence when I was younger, deeming me a child prodigy. When I was younger, I was always proficient at any activity I performed and was generally well-rounded. My concerns were never to compete on a narrow track, but to do things creatively and to seek a sense of identity. As for my education, I was always learning things in short-term processes, and had little tolerance for things that took too much time. My childhood consisted of long rides to the City (NYC) and waiting on my parents during business trips bored to death. And because of huge financial difficulties, my parents work multiple jobs and have never been able to fund private lessons, tutors, or rides to outside activities. I was doomed to lack of opportunities and fell behind. I honestly feel as though there is a gap in my parents' memories, because they still regard me as always naturally being "the best." I never took that compliment to heart, especially now, because I always understood that I was never completely developed in my skills, though agile at retaining information. Without any long-term skills, such as piano playing, swimming lessons, etc, I never thought it appropriate to deem myself the best or smartest by default. However, my parents did, and still treasure all the various awards I got from middle school and before. I can't stand that my father brags about my President's award from middle school, and that doesn't help me a single bit now. Rather, him harping on that is detrimental to my self-esteem. Now, I am 18 and a high school senior and bring this up with great concern, especially seeing that my biggest weakness has been my lack of extra curricular activities (as a result of difficulty accessing them, and not developing skills early on to join music or sports groups) and my mediocre grades (essentially, BS'd my way to first honors). Studying has been an incredibly difficult task for me because of the heavy commitment of time. Usually the initial reaction people get from me is that I'm incredibly educated and well-rounded, which is funny to hear because my grades are sub-par. I spend most my time learning things outside of the curriculum. Hitting the books can literally cause me nausea. Mentors teaching me extraneous topics disappoints me, when the motive is to learn in order to brag and thus achieve superiority. Just the idea of forcing myself to learn induces opposition, and I find it hard to curb this habit. My ideal of academic delivery/presentation is mostly improvisational. In social situations, I find it hard to take a compliment. The compliments about my personality I get are generally that I'm "mysterious" and "hard to read" if the speaker is just making initial impressions. Compliments on my looks I don't take too well or pass over casually, if that helps. My friends are surprised that I'm not at the top of the class, but at the same time think I'm so reticent about grades because I'm not doing all that well. It is correct to an extent, but I actually am not too fond of using figures to judge someone's intelligence. It seems to me that throughout my childhood, I never thought I was justified as being the best, and only understood my great potential. "The cup is empty" and I am never completely satisfied with myself. I don't think this would fall under categorizations of a simple "inferiority complex" knowing that the causes of my low self-esteem has ironically, been taking good compliments. Has anyone ever even heard of anything similar? Thanks!
How can I fix the clear coat that's peeling on my car? I have an older car which has clear coat peeling on the hood and roof. Big time! I don't like driving it because it looks so bad. Can I sand it down and put some touch up paint on it? I know this isn't the right way to do it but I have no choice. I can't afford a paint job or a new car.I have done something similar to this before. I sanded down the rust and applied touch up paint. Didn't look bad for a quicky job. And my car looked alittle better. I could really use some suggestions to my problem. I can live with the rust but this peeling is very unapeeling! I hate to sound cheap so I'll let you in on my situation. I'm on disability due to Multiple Sclerosis. Living alone doesn't allow my budget to include a new car or paint job. So I need your help! I need to find a cheap way to make my ride more enjoyable! Any suggestions would be more than greatly appreciated! Thank you!
Excell array formulay for multiple pages in a workbook? Hi all... I have a sales order intake sheet which is spread across 12 pages (one for each month). In column A is the customer name and in column C is the order value for that job. I am trying to find a formular which can look at every occurance of a specific customer within the whole 12 months and add up all the respective order values. I am able to do this on a page by bage basis using this simple SUMIF formular ( SUMIF(A1:A1000,"Customer1",C1:I1000)) ). But that would meen adding loads more data to the work book as I would have to SUMIF each customer on every page meaning lot's of exess data and I am trying to keep the size of the sheet down becuse it gets emailed. Is their an array formular or something I can use which would allow me to do the above but for all 12 pages in one formular on a summary page rather than having to duplicate the same thing on each page and add it all up. Many thanks in advance Oscar100
My mom has been addicted to crack for 10 years, what should I do? My mom used to be a wonderful mother, more than 10 years ago. She used to cook for us (my sister, and step-father), everyday. She used to clean, and exercise all the time. She was like my best friend, and was always there for me. Until April 16th, 1999 (her 31st birthday party). I was 13 going on 14 in May, at that time. My step-dad's birthday was also April 16th, ironically, so they had a huge birthday party. It was pretty fun, but went to sleep at my cousins later that evening. After that night, things have never been the same again =(. Apparently, she was in the basement that night with my step-father and his friends. His friends offered him a hit I guess, so he then offered one to my mom as well. His friend advised to not let her take one, but she insisted to try it. It's crazy how trying it just once, can change your life forever. I had no idea how bad the drug was until they both got addicted to it. As the time flew by, they fell into a serious crack addiction. The addiction eventually tore their marriage apart. My mom lost her job, and became a pathological liar. They would have several different crackheads in and out of the house often at night. I knew what they were doing, because I began to find broken crack pipes and such. My mom told me straight up that she craves it, and it gives her a rush after every hit. The smell of it was so awful. It smelt to me, like someone who has bad breath sneezing or something. She started cheating on my step-dad with his friends, and not showing up for weekends at a time. He began not coming home at night, and returning early in the morning to get ready for work. When I would confront her about it, she would never listen. Since I was a teenager, I would just come and go as I please. I saw it as freedom, but eventually got pregnant. I started ditching school, and then dropped out once I turned 16. No one stopped me, and I wasn't thinking about the consequence. They would give my sister money, and let he sleep at her friends when ever she wanted. My sister was young, but knew what they were addicted to. However, she just saw it as freedom as well. After having my son at 15 years old. Things became rough. They stopped paying for the water, electricity, and phone. I had to move in with my grandparents, due to the poor living environment. I told my grandparents about their problem, and they got together with my step-dad's parents to attempt an intervention with my mom and step-dad. They went to their house and stayed talking to them for hours. They all cried together, so I thought they finally seen the light. Unfortunately, it did not work though. The problem became worse. My mom and sister's dad eventually divorced, and sold the house. My mom then met another guy, who had a good head on his shoulders. He was not into drugs or alcohol, and has an awesome career. He purposed to my mother, then wanted her to move in with him. He lived in a town 2 hours away, so my sister and I followed. We actually thought that since we were moving away from the drugs, that it would bring our mom back to how she used to be. It didn't work though. She found the drugs rather quickly, and began to disappear on him. We would be at home with him while she was gone. He would be going crazy and not understand why this was happening. He didn't know of my moms problem. We couldn't stand to see him like that, so we told him the truth. He was devastated, but at the same time wanted to help her. After years of trying to help her, he finally divorced her. During that time though, he hired a private investigator to follow her. He stated that she has turned to prostitution. He divorced her at the beginning of this year. After the divorce, she was missing for about two months. She began dating and using multiple men for their money. Once they became aware of her drug problem, they kicked her out. She is still in the little town, and calls me once in awhile from a different guys number. Every time I talk to her, she says she is clean, and is trying to get her life back together. Which has been her same lie for years. I'm at the point where I don't care anymore, but feel like I still need to do something about it. I have tried to call intervention, and have always tried to talk to her about it. Nothing works, and all she does is lie and deny. What should I do? It's been 10 years already. Please help..

There were 2 repsonses: the first from AL (not her real name) Omega 3 Oils and Magnesium. Get it from your diet as well. Stop eating processed foods. Stop eating fried foods. Stop eating wheat.

Message: ...so that you can get registered to receive real medical information both in lectures and snail mail and on the Internet by paying for it. One medical researcher doing "research" on YOU does not constitute peer reviewed medical knowledge. Read "The Inflammation Cure " by toxicology and immunology professor William Joel Meggs. "Fibromyalgia" involves inflammation unseen by the naked eye. It is in the brain. Get yourself a reputable neurologist - a movement disorder one. Have a gentetic screening test done and start making yourself healthy with food instead of advising the misinformed to take more drugs with many side-effects. Stay out of the sun. Any good medical doctor knows that there are foods that promote inflammation and foods that reduce inflammation. However unscrupulous ones enjoy using uninformed ones as guinea pigs to try out new medicines and bogus, not peer reviewed treatments. Diet does work. I am living proof. I have a progressive neurological condition as well as a medical background. Stop hacking into peoples accounts and using multiple YA accounts to annoy people. I have reported you to the appropriate police unit for cyber crime in the past. They know who you are. ********************************************************************************** here are teh real faxcts: FIBROMyalgia is accepted to be a neurologicAL CONDITION With NO INFLAMMTION--this theory is uphelp by teh top researchers around teh world It is true taht diet willhelp optimize teh body and make it stronger to deal with teh Fibromylagia--and possibly help reduce teh symptoms but it will not control fibro like AL claims... there are many conditions that mimic fibro--and at least one of tehm will be comtrol with diet alone i ahve particiapted in legitimate researc=h with world renowned resaerchers taht are published and peer reviewd and her sattement about tehr beign invisable inflammtion is how shoudl i say it---in appropriate so i could refute everything she said--with ACCPETED RESEARCH i ahve never claiemnd to eb a medical professional (she has) STOP HACKING INTO ACCOUNTS ( iw oudln't if i copudl) STOP USING MULTIPLE ACCOUNTS (ther eis one otehr answer here--and one thumbs down--how does taht indicate i am using mulitple acounts--yes i ahve an old account--but only 1 i am currently using..i got a new email address due to sapm so i had to start a new account) i have tried a fibro friendly diet--and got worse--so I am living proof taht diet doesn't cure fibro the quetsion is who are these cyber police --i woul dlove to talk to tehm sorry for teh typing--due to my diability btw--filing a false police report is a crime in teh real world i am in teh US--i don't knwo where she is jem--i wish you were --so i coudl report her to you.. her wild accusations just further prove that she is unstable and her information is just as crazy as she is
Is it possible to develop multiple personalities if I keep this up? I'm a 19 year old female. I've been having identity crises since I can remember. My parents have always moved around a lot so I always found myself altering who I was to fit in with new kids every year or so. Around the age of 14 we finally settled down and I've been going through strange attitude changes. The common denominator is that I'm extremely selfish, only do what I want to do, manipulate people, use people, con people (specially men), and I find it extremely easy to lie and be charming. I have no remorse whatsoever and I really don't know what I'm capable of. I feel like I have no limits. I often take on personalities and complete ideals and opinions for my new personality. I think it's safe to say that I basically bullsh*t my way through life. I find myself thinking of ways to get what I want, and making complete plans. I pretend to be different people *around* different people. It's also a phase thing. For a couple of months I'll be one person and for another couple of months I'll be completely different. My parents have always said that I'd be a good lawyer because I do a good job at defending different ideals. I thought about it (as a career choice) and realized that might be part of this entire thing. If debates at school and college I used to always win. Even if the ideal is beyond me, if I could care less about it, I'd adopt it as my own and defend it all the way. And it would be believable. That's basically what I am on a day to day basis. I've always had a hard time understanding who I am because I seem to have two completely different people inside my head. A lady and a tramp. And I have even made lists, with points defining both within my character. It seems like the lady is just a facade, and I use it to get what I want. I look up to women who con people, who use their sexuality to get what they want and who have no limits. Even the name on this account is fake (it's what I wish I could call myself, and the name has it's own personality to go with it). Lorena. I don't really know (or care) if this is normal, but thinking more and more about the way I behave I'm afraid if that could lead to some day actually developing an actual personality disorder that I cannot control. Like multiple personalities? Is it possible? Thanks in advance guys.
should I stay with this girl? I asked a question earlier but am still on the fence... I have been with this girl for 2 and a half years. I am living with her now but returning home for the summer. I am a pharmacy student and she was a gym teacher major, but decided it was to hard and now wants to get an associates in early childhood education. I have a job, but she couldn't find one and abandoned her search after the first semester because she said no one will hire her for 4 months... I pay for everything although the agreement before living with each other was she would pay half of food and internet/cable. Rent is still split in half. To get us through I even sold my snowmobile. We want to get engaged but I also want my motorcycle permit and a bike. She is mad because her grandfather rarely comes up and he is coming next month and is bringing a ring that she wants. He said that I can pay him when I have the money or her mom can hold the ring and I can give her the money when I have it and get the ring. I don't want to owe her grandfather the money and I don't want to do the mom thing because she will know when I ask her, and I am 19 and I think it should just be between us. So she is mad because we want to get engaged but I don't have the money. I have been working since 8 years old with a paper route and I have worked hard to buy myself a snowmobile and a 1985 trans am. I am trying to sell my trans am and would like to buy the ring but also want a bike. I feel bad because I did tell her this summer then on top of that my brother got engaged a month ago and I don't want to steal the spot light from him and get engaged right after him. she claims that late summer wouldn't be to soon to steal the spot light from him but that is only 5 months later. I have always been a hard worker, working since 8, multiple jobs, and going through pre-pharmacy school making the deans list both semesters of college, and she isn't... working 20 hours a week in the summer, and being tired of school so she wants a quicker degree with less money. I pay for everything since I have a job and im sick of selling all my my hard earned toys. I have given up so much including not having the experience of living on my college campus because she is a year older then me and lived in a dorm her first year and didn't like it. She said if we didn't go to the same college we would break up because she had been in a long distance relationship before and didn't like it. I give so much and I don't feel appreciated. The first semester of college she did dishes maybe 4 times but this semester she has done it almost every time... I am torn here this is my first serious relationship and I can't even imagine myself not with her because I love her. Her past relationship the guy was a jerk to her but now I feel she is the one being mean to me. When she isn't mean I love being with her but being 19 and giving up all my things and my whole paycheck is really upsetting me. other girls: would you appreciate me more then this? I haven't had the experience of how other girls are... She actually makes me feel bad if she pays for anything, but isn't afraid to go buy herself clothes or have me buy them for her. I have been with her since right after I turned 16. Sorry that was so long but I am really torn here I love her a lot and I know that she loves me but I feel like I am being used although she isn't the type of girl to use people. I have also abandoned my friends because she wants to spend time with me. A couple weeks ago I felt so bad about hanging out with my friends and going on a school club trip I gave her 50 bucks to go shopping or whatever she wanted. I also pay for all of her gas to go to school.
Do I keep her father in her life? here's the situation: my daughter is 16 months old. Her father and I had been dating on and off, more on than off, since before I had her, for the last 4 years. I found out recently that he had MULTIPLE women, all the while sleeping with me still. One of which I broke up with him over already because of arguments that me and her had. He assured me that they were no more and we got back together. Come to find out he was living with her and NOT the friends he said he was. Also come to find out he has his other kids (3 other kids, 2 different women) over there as WELL as with 2 DIFFERENT girls he "dates". I NEVER got on his case about money because he's finishing school and doesn't have a full time job. He does side jobs with a friend from time to time however to "pay bills", come to find out he doesn't even PAY rent where he lives. My cell phone got cut off and he called my house phone, and that's when I found out that the phone he has is in one of the girls he "dates" names! Because I wasn't in NEED of the money I never asked. The ONLY thing I asked is that she get his time. So because of that, he never felt obligated to pay. After speaking to ALL of the women in a 2 day period, I found out that he didn't even claim her to ANY of them. ALL of them had basically the same story that he told them, so there's no WAY they were lying. That's the background. Now let me get to my question. It's been a month since I found out about all this. We haven't spoken. I changed my number. Up until today when he came and left a note on my door to call him, he had made no effort to find out how she was, or if I needed any money (forgot to tell you - I got laid off 6 months ago and am collecting a measly $300 every 2 weeks from unemployment and had to move back to my mom's because I still haven't found a job and lost my place. My car note and insurance alone is $325). So now I'm struggling with this - do I let him be in her life right now? I don't trust him to take her - first of all because of all the different women he'd have her around, second of all because he got his driver's license revoked, and third of all because all he does is LIE. I can't trust him. I also can't fathom having my daughter see daddy with 3 different girlfriends a week. What does that teach her morally? He smokes weed every day. I used to too until I had her, but I don't anymore because I have a responsibility to my baby. On the flip side, how do I keep my daughter from having a father if he WANTS to see her? That doesn't register well with MY moral compass. What do I do? Do I just give him supervised visits here? I tried to offer that and he told me that I'm not going to dictate what he does with his daughter! The NERVE of this man! Do I also tell him he has to start providing for her in order to see her? It's only fair right? She is entitled. Even if it's a pack of diapers and an outfit once a month. I'm not even wanting to ask for much!! Do I tell him to pick one girl (minus the one I can't stand of course) to have her around and they can come get her and spend time with him and his other kids? I thought about that, but then how can I trust that he's not just going to have his ride around girl come pick him up and drop him off at another girls house? I found out from his other daughter's mother that her daughter was at one of the girls house watching tv in the living room and went in the room to get her dad and she caught him having sex with the girl! She's 7 years old! Please help me. I'm SO TORN right now.

HELP, HELP, HELP!!! please...? So I really need all the help I can get...if you could please be thorough with the responses to this question; I would greatly appreciate it. So, hello my name is Olivia. I turned 18 years old on October 21st, 2008. Prior to this I'd like to thank you and apologize for how lengthy this may be or seem. It's just very important to me. I believe there's a point in every person's life where they have to accept responsibility for their own choices, decisions, and mistakes. Since I was about 13 until pretty recently I've gotten into a great deal of legal trouble as well as drug addictions; my first charges were domestic violence, then it escalated to credit card fraud, and most recently check fraud, forgery, grand theft, VOP and a few more that I cannot recall off-hand. The most recent charges I mentioned were last year, around Feb. 2008 before I turned 18 (10/21/08), and when I went to court I was "declared delinquent"; anyways I was sentenced/declared to do approximately 9 months in a Level 6 juvenile (DJJ) program in addition to about 2 months (unfortunately not "time served") in the juvenile detention center, as well as being ordered to pay back all my restitution (which is now approximately $8,000.00, b/c while I was in my program I earned about $700.00 that was put toward my debt). I had/have been to multiple other programs prior to my sentencing, but my most recent program is the only one that has helped me tremendously. I know it's hard to believe but I found a higher power and I am a changed person, I'm ready to start my life as a responsible adult. I'm ready for a new chance. SO on that note, while I was in my juvenile program I was offered a full two-year scholarship to a local community college in my area. However, due to the fact that the women didn't know of my situation aka debt yet; she regrettably revoked my scholarship upon the news of my restitution. So, when I graduated my program I was sure that I wasn't going to have money to go to college and now here I was just turned 18 in more debt then some 30 year olds are. My grandfather/guardian/protector has always been there for me no matter what the circumstances were. I am now living with him, and I am actively job searching but with the economy the way it is; it's damn near impossible to find a job. My grandfather at first refused to pay for my schooling, after a while he decided that he would instead pay for me to go to the local community college, and that he'd continue to pay for me to go to school as long as I maintained a 2.5 GPA and if he could claim me on his taxes (which is a pretty sweet deal). I was/am looking forward to becoming a nurse, and we have already begun to enter me into the college so that I can complete my prerequisites and after can apply for the nursing program. I already know how hard it will be to become a nurse being my background, but I will do whatever it takes and I will wait however long I have to until my record is cleared. The issue is that I came to my grandfather with another deal in replace of the previous one. My deal was that instead of him paying for me to go to college, he could use the same amount of money and pay off my restitution; I would still have maybe $1,000.00 left to pay, but I could probably save that up pretty easily once I find/get a job. And I could use the scholarship I was offered instead, that way I'm killing 2 birds with 1 stone. The women who offered the scholarship said that if I paid off my restitution the scholarship would be there waiting on me. So he said he'd defiantly think about it but there would be conditions, and he said he wanted me to think about it as well and report back to him then he would make the final decision upon my presentation. He wanted me to tell him: 1. How it would benefit me and most importantly how would it benefit him? 3. What could I do for him since he is loaning/paying off my debt? 4. Would I be giving him any payment or something in replace of him paying off the debt? 5. How/What could I do to prove to him that by him paying this off he's helping me not hindering me? 6. How/What could I do to show him that I'm serious about my schooling and about getting my life straight, so that he knows if he pays this off I won't just mess up again (being that if he paid it off I would no longer be on probation) 7. He said he felt that I should have to suffer the consequences of my actions, and how would this help me to learn from my mistake? 8. He said that if he paid of my restitution that he'd be paying a large sum of money, unlike if he paid for my schooling where he'd be paying little bits at a time; so if he decided to pay off the restitution, how could I help to ease his worry about deciding to pay of my debt and what could I do to repay him (it doesn't have to be money) He wants me to develop a plan on the information above. He said he thinks he knows of a good plan, but he want's to see if I can figure it out...so please help me
Help with job hunting.....? I used to have a very good work history, however in the last few years that has diminished....I left a long term job for another one that had a lot of promise but I turned out they were not looking to hire me for the long haul and I was dismissed the problem being i s that I burned my bridge at the previous employer...so, for the last few years its been musical jobs, just what ever pays the bills and the same ol same ol working through temp services at companies that have no intention of ever hiring anyone full time, seasonal jobs, short term jobs, etc etc now the question is if I were to "with hold information" and not list these multiple jobs and instead list myself as self employeed for the past few years would any would be employer even be able to find the the truth out? just from what i've heard and seen most places won't hire me all because of the past few years anyway
is parents' job is to just provide food and clothing? ok here's the situation. i am 15 yrs old, i have 11 years twin sibling, a 13 years old bro, and a 24 years old sis. my mom hardly ever cooks anymore. she thinks we are old enough to take care of ourselves. everyone has a chore in the house. but im the only one with the worst one. cleaning dishes. there's 7 people in our house. and most of them eat like pigs using multiple plates at a time. so it usually takes me at least 45 minutes up to 1 hr 30 min. and i hate to stand on my feet! everyone else has a chore that take like 5-10 minutes to do and most of them don't do so my parents make me do it!!! all my dad cares about is if we have money for food. we usually goes to a Supermarket everyday to buy our own lunch and dinner because like i said mom hardly ever cooks. and when she cooks she only cooks for my dad. it seems like the only person she cares about is dad. she does everything for him w/o complaining and he always disrespect her and she just laugh it off, but when she does one thing for her kids, she started yelling a Louis in malcolm in the middle. then when it comes to laundry she says she's not going to do our own laundry anymore(we don't have a washer/dryer, if we does i can do mine all by myself) sometimes me and my bro goes to the laundromat ourselves and sometimes we have to drag the laundry bags by ourselves all the way(which is like a 5 Minutes walk) and every1 always stares at us. my dad has a car, but he always complaining and yelling at us saying we are too lazy and stuff so most of the time when we want to go somewhere, if we have our own money, we take the bus if we don't, we walk no matter how long it is.(one day i had to walk for 1hr to go to the library). and get this we are not allowed to socialize with our friends at all; mostly because our house is a ghetto mess and we are too broke to fix it(well my dad is not but he doesn't care what his house looks like saying its a waste of money. everything he does for us is a waste of money. if he give us 20 bucks for lunch and sometimes dinner ($5 per person) he says he's just wasting his money. i really hate this life i wish it could be better. if i got sick and i told my mom she ignores me and acts like she doesn't hear me. but if my dad says he has an headache, she's the first to suggest various types of pills he can use to care them. and when i tries to tell her about this, she says i'm a spoiled brat(which is kind of stupid considering we are broke). then she says she's the boss of the house and i can't tell her what to do. it is very annoying. yesterday she started yelling at me because of something my sis did and i told her she shouldn't have done it but she thinks im trying to control every1. and also she is so sexist just like my dad and my sis. we wouldn't let my bros do anything just because they are guys. if i have a problem i cannot even goes to them and tell them about it because i do not trust them. there's no trusted adult in my life. it really sucks. now she and my older sis is threatening to beat the hell out of me. and i told them to. this is just a few of the things i can think of. there's so much more. i cried yesterday because my mom yells at me for no reason and we she told me to arrange the dishes, she was like "if u drop those plates on me, i'm going to hurt you back and i do not care about what happens" i was so mad that i said "why did u have 5 kids we you are not going to to take care of them?" she almost hit me then she called my dad and told him i called her a bad mother. then she told me that if i didn't like her then i should find a new mom since this is america. then she started talking about how i'm hanging out with bad friends(which is so not true because i don't associate myself with bad people). this is situation is so horrible that i even consider calling child services. but i do not know their number. they really need to learn how to take care of their kids. and here is what makes it even worse. there's this woman who has 2 children and she always brings them over to hang out at our house. u should see my parents drooling over this kids. they have never take care of us like that. EVER. they would do everything for this kids. if they ask them for something, they would do it gladly. and if it was us, they would start yelling at us. they always do this. they always treats their friend's children 1 million times better than they treat us. and they always help others but not us. is there anything i can do? do u think this situation is worth calling child services? i do not really have the guts to do this becuase i am scared of my da like hell. i'm even more scared of him than i am of God. please help. i am not a spoiled brat. you should really come over to my house and see what really goes on day to day. don't insult me if you do not know what my life is really like!! ok, i am asking people what i should do not asking for insults. and they are not normal families. they knows nothing about their kids, nothing!! and they do not care enough. like i said is hat they treat everyone better than us. they are always nice and helpful to other people; but when it comes with their own blood; for some reason they find it dificult to even talk to us about anything. and my old sis is still living with us becuase of a problem she has. which is going to take about 6 months to 1 years to resolve. i do my chores everyday and i always has to do everyone's else. i cannot trade chores becuase i tried to do that before and my parent would not allow it. so you should really think i need to suck it up for 3 more years? or do something about it?
Multiple citations of the same piece within the same paragraph ? I am writing a research paper on several books. I am using a lot of quotations all from the same book in one paragraph. For example: It isn’t until after he searches for a job that he begins to show any worry for his situation. “Here I had waited until I was down to my last dollar, thinking that I could always pick up a job somewhere. But nobody in the harbor would hire a thief” (Basement, 31). Yet despite the monetary hardships he continues his life mostly unaffected. Much later he is abandoned in the countryside by a woman named Extine. Charles is forced to walk for miles in a lost daze to find the highway. “It was a hot day and I had to remove my sweater and top shirt. I was still in pain and limping, very thirsty too, I remember, and slightly panicked I might die out there in the woods” (Basement, 212). Now is this proper format, or should I save the citations until the end of the paragraph and list them as (Basement, 31, 212).
Do you find this disrespectful towards woman and their children? One of my guy friends whom I grew up with since grade-school is currently 22 has 4 children, 6yrs,4yrs,14month and a newborn (2days old) from 3 different woman the 4 year old and newborn belong to the same woman and the other to other woman. HE IS STILL LIVING HIS SINGLE LIFE DATING OTHER GIRLS My question is I find it disrespectful on his part that he has basically "burden" these woman's lives by making them single mothers, when he is well aware that he is not going to settle down and be a full-time dad, He even said it "i want kids but I don't want to take care of a woman" now I know it takes to 2 tango and these woman who know the type of guy he is should know better than allowing themselves to become pregnant with a child by him when he is not "good guy material" however my question is what do you think of this, I know many other guys who just use woman to have children but they never settle down with the woman they basically use the woman to "make" the baby and the men come and go as they wish, they play dad when they want and when they make time. i find it disgusting that these men have children all over the place and while they might be a "good" dad when they "have time" I think it does a great disservice to the children, How can a man be a "GOOD" father to 4 children in 3 different households, One child requires plenty of time (not just basic needs being meet but the love and affection is a 24/7 job) how is there even time for him to raise kids all over the place. my other question is if you have a child With a man and he proves to be basically "worthless" why would you have another child by him if he failed to be a good dad to the first child? What goes through these girls head when they make this decision? one thing is to fall into single motherhood by 'misfortune" but when you know the "type" of man he is and know that this guy already has multiple "baby mommas" why would a woman ALLOW herself to become pregnant again? the LEAST i can do for my child is PICK a good man to be the father why pick such a loser? why that does such a disservice to the child!
How can I fix my bent camera lens? I have a pentax K100 (not electronic) and I think I may have dropped it and bent the rim of my lens. I enjoy using multiple lens covers, but the threads will no longer match up seeing as the two rims are no longer the same shape. Can a repair shop do the job easily? If so, what kind of catalog can I use to find one nearby?
In a divorce involving multiple children, w/ both parents providing stable homes, will the kids be split up? This is slightly confusing but I'd like to see if I could get some advice. My parents are divorcing and both have stable jobs that bring in a good chunk of money. We have two houses (about 45 min away from each other) and they're both large enough to fit our entire family. There are 4 kids - myself (almost 18), my 11yr old brother, and 2 sisters (ages 6 and 7). Currently I am living with another family member, but I had intended to move in with my mother before I started college. What I'm wondering is, what is generally done in cases of multiple children where both parents are responsible & are able to financially provide for the kids? Do they split the kids up, or do they give all of them to one parent, or what? I understand what joint custody is, I'm just wondering what might happen in terms of living arrangements because I know neither parent will agree to the other keeping all 4 of us. We live in Florida if that helps. I'd like to ask my parents what their intent is, but I need some time to think first, I pretty much just found out yesterday. I did a few cursory searches on Google but I guess I didn't use the right search terms. Can anyone help? Thanks, I appreciate it.
Do you clean with rubber gloves? I was wondering how many women use rubber gloves to clean. Do you have multiple pairs of rubber or latex gloves? Are these gloves scattered throughout a home, car, or business?(or are they all in one place?) How often do you find yourself using rubber or latex gloves to clean or do other jobs? Have you ever taken or removed gloves from work or anywhere else for home or personal use? What is your age? Thanks for your help!
how do you feel about patriotism? I've had the privilege of living in multiple countries and each country I found that there were individuals that I had more things in common with than many people who share my national origin. I also used to live in Seattle and I would often drive across the border to Vancouver and I'd find people in Vancouver to be a lot more similar to me in attitude and lifestyle than people in Kansas, where my job used to send me a couple of times during year. I often wonder why I should feel more loyal to my countrymen who are sometimes more of a stranger to me than those "foreigners" with whom I can bond easier? If the whole idea of patriotism is protectiveness and admiration for a way of life, your way of life, shouldn't you feel more loyal to those who represent your way of life more closely? The concept of country, is really really young. There were no countries until the 17th century. What makes countries, so special, that we should feel loyal to them all of a sudden? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Westphalian_sovereignty
Good or bad essay? lord of the flies.? In english i have to write an essay about symbolism.. Tell me what you guys think When one reads a novel, they try to analyze the book to find its meaning. The author puts into the novel multiple literary elements to help the reader find the meaning of the novel, and to make the book easier to read. Some of these elements are put on purpose. . In the novel Lord of the Flies by William Golding, Golding uses a lot of symbolism in The Lord of the Flies. The entire book is symbolic of the nature of man and society. A symbol Golding uses throughout the book is the conch.. It symbolized control through reason, and also order and unity through consent. It also has a symbolic of order of justice, which is broken by savagery. The person holding the conch had the power, and it created order and rules since when it was called, everyone had to listen. Another symbol is Piggy’s glasses. It symbolized technical knowledge needed for fire, and for rescue. While Piggy had them, he was able to give advice to the group, such as that of the signal fire. It was the glasses that created the fire. However, after the glasses are broken, the group loses what insight they had. The war paint is also a symbol. It symbolized the rejection of society. In a way, when they put on the mask of war paint ,they took off the mask of society and revealed their true inner selves which was savage. The fire symbolizes good, as well as evil, almost like man. It will make smoke for the rescue, unites the boys, and cooks the meat that they catch. Whereas the evil qualities of the fire will burn a child to death, destroy part of the island, and is the center of the tribal dance and the killing of Simon. The ashes of the fire could represent the dead flesh of the kids, and animals. In conclusion, I have found there to be numerous symbols in "Lord of the Flies." I also think that these symbols were the basis of the storyline and that William Golding has done an excellent job of using these representations.
I had multiple jobs this year but want to file my federal taxes using the first W2 I receive? And then go back and file an amended return when I get my other W2s. See, one of my jobs was with a huge charity, another was for the community college, and the last was for a small 8 person doctor's office. I know that the charity and the college are going to take forever getting the W2s out, and I really need my EIC as soon as possible. Will there be any big problem with this, other than the time it takes to file the amended return? Can't I file my amended return after I get my refund? It's just a really desperate situation. Poop.... I guess you guys are right..... Thanks!

what is the most efficient, professional way to handle multiple job offers/opportunities? I have a large dilema...I have 3 jobs lined up and I go to school full time, and I don't know how to handle them... Job 1) 50 miles away from my house...I sought this job because my boyfriend was working in the area and we could carpool. We are not together anymore and I am kind of dreading the commute. Also, this is the only job that has formally been offered to me (it is 7-5) I want to take it, then quit?!?! I used to work for this company and my previous bosses are giving me recommendations Job 2) the job I really want is serving/cocktailing at a local Italian restaurant/night club. The owner informed me that a past employee got the current position but he will have another one open in 10 days and I'm on his A list. Job #1's time frame would interfere with the start time for this job Job #3) I am going for an interview as a nanny later in the week, I dont know what to tell them, at first i told them I had a fully open schedulle, but now?!?! Thanks!!
W4 - How to file if married, both work, multiple jobs? Help!? Here's the situation. My husband and I always owe taxes and I need some help to figure out the right way to file. I have one job, he has two jobs. My job has the highest pay. We always file jointly. On our W4's, we use "married but withhold at single rate" and claim 1 allowance. I just read something that said that you are supposed to only use the allowance on one person's W4.. is that correct? Currently, we use the "single rate" and 1 allowance on all of our W4's (mine and both of his). Can someone help me figure out the right way to file? From what I have read, this is what I am thinking I should do: Me - "single rate" and 1 allowance Him - "single rate" and zero allowances for both jobs Can someone tell me if I have that right? Thank you for your help!

Is it possible to network two laptops, without a router, and be able to remote access the second unit? In my taxi cab I use a laptop for multiple jobs, including mapping and playing music videos. I would like to add a second one, using the 15" HD drop down screen as the primary, a wireless keyboard, with mouse pad, for control. This would allow the customers to select their own videos for play. I have Sprint broadband wireless on my Sony Laptop, so I would like the second laptop to remote access the internet through it. I currently have 3000 videos. A taxi cab in Austin has 14,000 videos, but he uses a desktop computer in a full size van with extended top and has dance poles.

How do I determine a computer's age? The computer workstation I use on my job has been in use by multiple people over at least a few years. The graphics card seems slow and it doesn't run software as quickly as I need. I know this thing is at least three years old...probably more. Is there someplace in the Control Panel or the MS-DOS environment I can look to get an approximate age of this dinosaur?
Trying to decide what I want to do for a living... help? I have no idea what I want to major in or what I want to do after college.

Does anyone know of any other jobs that would incorporate my interests?
How do I get multiple copies of a letter of recommendation for college teaching jobs? I'm graduating this May with my M.S. degree in mathematics. I want a lecturer/instructor position at a two year or small four college, and I will hopefully be able to convince two or three of my professors and possibly a former boss to each write a letter of recommendation for me. Anyway, since I will of course apply at multiple schools, what is the best way to do this? I can think of three possibilities: 1. My professors/former boss(es) write a unique letter of recommendation to each job I apply at. Ie Dear Person 1, at College 1, _____________ Then for the next one, Dear Person 2, at College 2 _______ and so on. This seems like too much of a pain in the butt that I don't want to put them through. 2. They write a letter of recommendation for me, email it to me, and for each place I send it to, I simply edit in a different addressee's name/college 3. They write a letter of recommendation but they simply use "To whom it may concern" (or similar). Then I just photocopy/print a bunch of copies of the letter without having to edit anything in....

Multiple Job Offers but Background Check looming, what should I do.? So I am considering multiple opportunities and I've come to realize that my background check could be problematic. While in undergrad (9 years ago) i was caught with Marijuana but the charge was brought down to a Disorderly Conduct - Misdemeanor charge. I did a quick background check just now using Intelius. That showed up as me having 2 charges, 1 for the Marijuana, and the 2nd for the Marijuana -> Disorderly conduct charge.... obviously need to contact my lawyer from 10 years ago to get this straightened out so the Marijuana offense is gone. anyway i have offer letters here, and I don't want to be in a situation where I say yes to just one, and tell the rest sorry... then later come back and ask for the job again because my background check on the one that I want disqualified me because of my background. So do you think it's Okay for me to go ahead and accept all offers, sign and return the letters, and wait till all the results comeback before i say no to a job that starts in mid-January? thanks

Will having multiple credit cards increase my credit score faster? I'm currently 18, so Im new to credit and would like to build credit. I have a decent part time job and am currently a student and will be a student in college in the fall. I have applied for student credit cards. Around 5 or 6 to be exact. What Im curious to knowing is that if I pay off whatever I use my credit cards for to purchase, BEFORE the grace period ends, will my credit increase more quickly? I do not intend to keep large balances on any of them, (I would like to keep only 3). I said they would be paid during the grace period, therefore they would all be paid on time. I intend to only keep 3 maximum...some of them I applied for, I am not sure that I'll get...I intend to keep at least 1 mastercard and 1 visa and possibly another Visa or a Discover. And the only reason I'm really looking into credit cards is to purchase items online since I live in the middle of nowhere and there aren't many stores and to purchase sporting event tickets and just to have one for a back up...that sort of thing...Im more a cash person.

Are illegal aliens using the S.S. numbers of their U.S. born children? Is this another reason to stop birthright citizenship? Should illegal aliens who commit document fraud such as this be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law? In this article children are the targets of document fraud. Do you believe they are using their U.S born childrens identities? (I know the article does not say this, but with so many cases, you know it is a huge possibility.) What is going to happen to these children when they become of age? XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Illegal, But Not Undocumented: Identity Theft, Document Fraud, And Illegal Employment By Ronald W. Mortensen Center for Immigration Studies This Backgrounder examines illegal immigration-related document fraud and identity theft that is committed primarily for the purpose of employment. It debunks three common misconceptions: illegal aliens are “undocumented;” the transgressions committed by illegal aliens to obtain jobs are minor; and illegal-alien document fraud and identity theft are victimless crimes. It discusses how some community leaders rationalize these crimes, contributing to a deterioration of the respect for laws in our nation, and presents a variety of remedies, including more widespread electronic verification of work status (E-Verify and the Social Security Number Verification Service) and immigrant outreach programs to explain the ramifications and risks of document fraud and identity theft. The findings include: Illegal immigrants are not “undocumented.” They have fraudulent documents such as counterfeit Social Security cards, forged drivers licenses, fake “green cards,” and phony birth certificates. Experts suggest that approximately 75 percent of working-age illegal aliens use fraudulent Social Security cards to obtain employment. Most (98 percent) Social Security number (SSN) thieves use their own names with stolen numbers. The federal E-Verify program, now mandated in only 14 states, can detect this fraud. Universal, mandatory use of E-Verify would curb this and stop virtually 100 percent of child identity theft. Illegal immigration and high levels of identity theft go hand-in-hand. States with the most illegal immigration also have high levels of job-related identity theft. In Arizona, 33 percent or all identity theft is job-related (as opposed to identity theft motivated simply by profit). In Texas it is 27 percent; in New Mexico, 23 percent; in Colorado, 22 percent; California, 20 percent; and in Nevada, 16 percent. Eight of the 10 states with the highest percentage of illegal aliens in their total population are among the top 10 states in identity theft (Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, Nevada, New York, Georgia, and Colorado). Children are prime targets. In Arizona, it is estimated that over one million children are victims of identity theft. In Utah, 1,626 companies were found to be paying wages to the SSNs of children on public assistance under the age of 13. These individuals suffer very real and very serious consequences in their lives. Illegal aliens commit felonies in order to get jobs. Illegal aliens who use fraudulent documents, perjure themselves on I-9 forms, and commit identity theft in order to get jobs are committing serious offenses and are not “law abiding.” Illegally employed aliens send billions of dollars annually to their home countries, rather than spending it in the United States and helping stimulate the American economy. In October 2008 alone, $2.4 billion was transferred to Mexico. Tolerance of corruption erodes the rule of law. Corruption is a serious problem in most illegal aliens’ home countries. Allowing it to flourish here paves the way for additional criminal activity and increased corruption throughout society. Leaders support perpetrators and ignore victims. Political, civic, religious, business, education, and media leaders blame Americans for “forcing” illegal aliens to commit document fraud and identity theft. No similar concern is expressed for the American men, women, and children whose lives are destroyed in the process. The Social Security Administration and Internal Revenue Service facilitate illegal immigrant-driven identity theft. Both turn a blind eye to massive SSN fraud and take no action to stop it. The Social Security Administration assigns SSNs to new-born infants that are being used illegally. The IRS demands that victims pay taxes on wages earned by illegal aliens using their stolen SSNs, while taking no action to stop the identity theft. State and local governments need to adopt tougher laws to supplement federal efforts. The Bureau of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is targeting large document fraud rings and the most egregious employers, but their resources are limited and stretched across multiple priorities. In 2007, identity theft cases represented only 7 percent of the total ICE case loa Funny how advocates all use splc and we know they are very unreliable.

Can anyone help me write a computer script? At my job we use a website to post shifts to give to anyone else. The site uses a javascript area to list the shifts, and I'm looking to get a script which will take any shifts not overlapping a schedule I will define.

Because this is a big project to ask, if you cant help me, could anyone direct me a place I could learn how to write a script?

Anyone have experience cloning a Windows 95 HDD using Ghost 2003? I need to clone a hard drive running Windows 95. This is a business computer and it has irreplacable software running on 95. I need more space so I tried using ghost to do the job. I have tried disk to disk copy and making a bootable cd to restore the image. Neither process works. The computer boots and gives error about no operating system. I have tested the drive in multiple computers and it is ok. The BIOS detects it no problem. I have lots of experience with ghost on 98/ME/2K/XP. Never seen this before. Any thoughts?
Two references from the same job? I just got an interview for a job in retail, and i was asked to bring three work-related job references with me. The problem is, i've only worked two serious jobs. Is it acceptable to have two references from the same place of employment? For example, a head manager and assistant manager from the same job? Since i have limited work experience, is it also acceptable to use a professor that i have done multiple volunteer jobs for?
Can anyone tell me what is the purpose of a staffing agency? For example staffing agencies like Robert Half, K force, and etc. I mean with my experience all this people do is take jobs from careerbuilder and monster and post it like their own job posting. Also you have multiple interviews that you don't even need if you didn't use a staffing agency. Also if the agency doesn't have a good working relationship with the client company that can make the candidate stand out/ What is the purpose of using one if all they do is take 40% of your salary when all they did is get you an interview with a company something anybody can do themselve for free on a job search engine.
How do assign multiple websites to my "open email" button on my enhanced keyboard? I have a HP enhanced PS2 multimedia keyboard with easy access buttons across the top.

I currently have it set to open only 1 of those but would like all three to open with one button.
how to use vlookup for multiple lookup values? my problem is that vlookup does not get the results i want. I have a list of data for 2 months of vendors and what they owe in different categories (services, supplies, etc). i then have a identification number and a job number for every vendor. I want to use vlook up to sum how much each vendor owes my company for the two months. I do not want to merge the files together. I tried using vlookup with just the id number, but it does not give me the data i want since the vendor number is the same for alot of jobs and vice versa. I was wondering if there is a way to use both the vendor number and the job number as the lookup value. I do not want to use the conecate function cause it will not give me the second occurence of the value (i keep getting the first occurence and not having the rest of the occruences in the vlookup) the sumif function would take too long to do and i need to create a report that uses outstanding vendors in april and find their balances in may also there are several ones with both the same vendor id and job id
The Best windshield cleaner? I've had problems with a streaky/hazy windshield that I attributed to bad wipers, until I took someone's advice and tried rubbing alcohol to remove Rainx/wax/road tar/miscellaneous greasy gunk. Now I've noticed that the windshield is less streaky and hazy, and the wipers seem to wipe the surface streak-free on the first pass. The problem is that it's not completely clean. And I don't want to spend my time and effort using multiple applications of rubbing alcohol when there might be a better solution. So, what else could I use that does a better job? Please don't say Bonami, it's not made to clean glass and actually scratches it.
W2s and personal income taxes question? I lived in Ohio for half of 2007 and I have the W2, now I live in MN again (where I've always been) and got the W2 from my current job. I normally use software like TurboTax or the other big one out there (forget the name) to do taxes, but I've never done multiple state taxes. How much different is this? Can I use software for this? If so, would I be paying another $20 or whatnot to send this extra state tax form in?
Illegal Immigrants Using Others SSN? I have a friend that is the manager (not hiring manager) for the fast food place that has multiple illegal immigrants using other people's SSN to work. He has told me this and said he cannot do anything about it. I already informed my local Police Department and Sheriff and they said they cannot do anything about it? I don't understand why they wouldn't do what they can to protect other people's security. I called ICE and informed them as well, but nothing has been done. Is there someone that will actually do something about this? This is insane I can't believe the police aren't doing their job. Do I have to write the state government? - I just don't understand why the authorities won't do anything to protect the American people - Would informing the media (news) or the state government do anything?
Were you disappointed with the winner of this years Design Star? I was. Antonio does bring a different hosting vibe but his designs were not the best. Like Vern kept pointing out his scale of furniture and furniture placement always left something to be desired. He never offered any great/creative storage solutions either. Dan did a great job with built in storage, which both Candice and Vern recognized the importance of. He also did a phenomenal job with small spaces as Vern does. Dan did a great job at making multiple uses of one space. His white room challenge was by far the best. I was glad that 1. They didn't pick a female. 2. They didn't chose a feminine male. I think that Antonio was chosen for his unorthodox hosting, not his design.

Intelligent Design & Vestigial Organs? Topic :-Vestigial organs not necessarily proof of evolution for Darwin I would postulate that it is possible to have a vestigial organ [ananatomical structure in organisms in a species, thought to have lost its original function through evolution] without the process of evolution. Let me illustrate this idea using an analogy drawn from popular computer software. Assuming, I have a reasonable amount of storage space on my computer hard disk, if I first create an unformatted document using Microsoft(MS) Word, and then a second MS Word document that I format very rigorously, I do so because I consider MS Word software to be the best option for my purposes, as opposed to using, say, the less sophisticated Notepad software, where little formatting of documentsis possible. Now, if you argue that there is a vestigial structure to the first MSWord document (the capacity - in this case, unused - for formatting)and that this only became functional in the second document,ultimately concluding that the first document evolved from the second document, you would be incorrect, since I am the creator of both documents. Similarly, I would argue that vestigial organs do not necessarily confirm evolution; they only point to what tools - improvable overtime - the creator used while making the species. This same principle is seen even in electronic gadgets today. Most probably, such an explanation did not occur to Darwin given that, in his time, there were no common tools to carry out varied, complex,seemingly disconnected jobs. So he concluded that unless a creator planned to mislead us, vestigial organs should not have existed It is tendency of creators of to make some useful common tools, which can be used to carry out multiple jobs (or to make machines). so by virtue of this comman tools (if tools get fitted into machines), vestigenesity will come up. Vestigial organs can be classified in to verticle & tranverse ones Verticle ones are like appendix which are inherited from ancestor to next species Tranverse one are in which one sex has fuctional capacity & in opposite sex it is vestigineous Example Vertiginous Male breast can be better explained tools of intelligent design than Darwin evolution now look at male nipple which are functional in female. Male & female have come much before mammals, so presence of male nipple in mammals can be explained by theory of tools of intelligent design better than Darwin evolution. http://umeshbilagi.blogspot.com/2007/04/intelligent-design-vestigial-organs.html Why there is no perfect making from intelligent designer? It is unwise jump to conclusion that intelligent designer has to make things with perfection he makes things as per his wish, with his requirement, (like, life for humans for 100years) Why there are support systems in living beings? & it is foolish have them. Now regarding support system when we consider that we make good intelligent soft ware programmes, there are viruses which can attack them, for that we have (support system) antivirus Now don’t call software programmers foolish Common embryogenesis? Male nipple points towards common embryogenesis i.e. common tools which I am mentioning Who created the creator? Now, answer for creation creator. It is like asking what was there before big bang, Stephan Hawking will answer you that time began then & there no time before this event or even if it was, it has no effect on us. Answer for who created creator, will come from birth of universe.
Entering values off an Excel file onto multiple web-sites? Anybody know of any short-cuts? A big part of my job involves manually entering values off of an Excel spreadhseet into different companies' websites for the purpose of generating information. Each companies' website looks different, but the values that I am entering are always the same. Are there any shortcuts that I could use to save time, since I often have to enter the same information into as many as 5 different websites? One of the sites has an Excel upload feature, but the other 4 do not. Is there any way to work around this?
What brand of paint should I use to paint the interior of my house? Behr Premium or Ben Moore.? I want to paint with an eggshell finish and cover a Med. Brown color with a light cream color. I am planning on first using Kilz tinted to a close color to help cover the brown. I am debating between paying something like $130 for a five-gallon of Ben Moore and paying something like $88 for a five-gallon of Behr premium at Home Depot. I will consider paying the extra if it would make the job easier, since it is quite a large job and every coat will take me a long time to apply. I have heard about the outstanding abilities of Ben Moore, but given the contrast in the two colors I will probably have to do multiple coats anyway. Any suggestions would be great, especially from people with experience in dealing with these two brands.

Is it wrong to sleep with multiple partners? (I'm 16 and soon-to-be-junior.) So I ended my relationship with my ex last month because it's summer time and I don't have time to be tied down. But, we maintained a friendship and to make a long story short we still have sex regularly. We're not a couple, and never will be again, we just like to do each other. Now I met this girl at my summer job and we hit it off great, my rule is never date a coworker, but we've been going out together on the weekends and have a friends with benefits situation. I'm having sex with both girls, but not going out with either, so is that unfair or wrong in any way? I haven't had sex with anyone else, but I have hooked up (everything but sex) with other girls at parties, but I have enough respect not to just have sex with anyone. I always use protection, and I'm not looking for advice, I'm looking for opinions. Is it ok? No stupid "man-whore" "your shallow" "too young for sex" answers please Ya, I'm asking for OPINIONS. Because this isn't an issue with cheating, it's an issue with morals, and i just want some input Last time I checked, wearing a condom protects me from being "a daddy or getting an STD" And yes the main two girls know.
How can I log in and accept a job if I am not in front of my e-mail at the time it is offered? I am an independent contractor. When an offer is made through e-mail it is made to multiple vendors at the same time. I have to go to my log on page with the company, enter my password on the next screen, and choose Accept or Decline. No matter how quickly I have done this manually (often within 1.5 minutes) someone else presses the "I Accept" button on their own log in page and I Iose the job opportunity. This happens over and over so I know there must be some computer trick to this I could use to my benefit. I do have an alert sent also to my telephone, but still I'm not fast enough.
