NO, that rumor has been going around for decades. They are never going to do it. Let me guess, you were told by someone who sent you a chain email.Hey i hear that yahoo is closing and to use it we would have to pay 10.00 a month is that true.?
what are your sources?

Is it true that people along time ago used to die from having diarrhea?
I learned this in class...Is it true that people along time ago used to die from having diarrhea?
Yes.
Children in African still regularly die from diarrhea which can easily lead to dehydration.Is it true that people along time ago used to die from having diarrhea?
Yes, and it can still happen. When a person has severe diarrhea they lose large amounts of fluids and electrolytes. The loss of fluid causes low blood pressue which can cause organ damage. Electrolyte abnormalities can cause seizures, cardiac arrhythmias etc.
Fluid replacement with oral or IV fluid is necessary.
It is very true even today. Some time in italy they intentionally induced diarrhea as a form of punishment. They used castor oil and the subjects sometimes died of dehydration.
i have never heard of this before , but if you think of it , if you have diarrhea and get dehydrated and have no medicine to take you can die from dehydration so im sure its possible , also diarrhea can be caused by infection so thats another possibility
yes.
from the dehydration and the electrolyte imbalances that it can cause.
and people still could; there are a lot of people that are hospitalized just for diarrhea, but they received medication and IV fluids to help them while they recover.
yes, it's true. some people still do today.
Yes, it's an inflammatory disorder of the intestines/colon called, ';dysentery.'; It caused extreme diarrhea, (containing mucous and blood,) and was often fatal.

Is it true that plastic grocery bags are going to not be used anymore?
I heard that plastic grocery bags are not going to be used anymore by 2009, have you heard this too? is there any other plastic not going to be used anymore? I noticed in stores they are all selling the reusable vinyal bags.Is it true that plastic grocery bags are going to not be used anymore?
I have no idea... Here in most stores it costs to use plastic bags a lot of the time and they sell the vinyl ones.
I don't know though... I love having the plastic bags because I use them as garbage bags afterwards.... saves me money from buying plastic garbage bags. So I think we should keep them around.
If people stopped driving and starting using public transit that would do more than stopping plastic bag use I bet.Is it true that plastic grocery bags are going to not be used anymore?
the reason for that proposed change is to reduce the amount of non degradable materials that are put in dumps.
but I'm not sure the alternatives - reusable bags that you have to bring with you, or bags made from degradable materials, will cause that change, unless of course it will become illegal to use plastic bags.
I get far more plastic bags than I could ever use as trash bags - and I try to refuse a bag as often as possible.....
I dunno if they are banning them....but I sure as heck hope so.....
How is it that we see so many as trash along the road.....I don't recall seeing too many paper trash bags as litter....
In Michigan, we had a tremendous problem with empty cans and bottles as litter.....so we added a deposit to those containers....voila, now we have very few empties along the roads, curbs, laying around in parks, etc....
I'd be all for doing something like that if it meant less plastic getting into the environment. Somehow I suspect people wouldnt want only two items in a grocery bag if they had to pay a dime each [and having worked summers as a bagger - lemme tell ya, the number of people who want two items double bagged is staggering]
i dont kow about 2009 but i hear there switching to reusable bags yea
Yes - are trying to to that .
But i think all bags are a bit bad or so every thing go in your bin ? .
Some states are banning plastic bags. Too bad the giant supermarkets refuse to stop using plastic bags, which is an incredible waste of oil.
Here in New Haven, Indiana, the local Kroger store clerks don't even offer you a choice of ';paper or plastic'; - they just dump all your groceries into flimsy little plastic bags unless you ask for paper bags. It's an abhorrent waste of oil, destructive to our environment, and callously insensitive to Kroger customers. -RKO- 01/15/08
Dunno...But it's ironic, because stores originally switched to plastic bags because of pressure from environmentalists who were complaining that paper bags killed too many trees.
Yet another example of the ';Law of Unintended Consequences'; ... which basically says be careful about recommending ';solutions'; for unproven problems, because you may end up making things worse in some other way.
I know this is true in China. Here's the article:
http://www.greenstudentu.com/Our_World_T鈥?/a>
Most likely they will be still used, but you have to pay for them.
Many stores are self regulating and not using plastic grocery bags. Even China is announcing a plastic bag ban (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/asia-pa鈥?/a> and the same can be said in England. So the world is moving to reduce or remove the use of plastic grocery bags.

Is it true that houses used to cost $4,500?
Why does inflation exist? Is it a friend to government, or a foe?Is it true that houses used to cost $4,500?
My parents bought their home in California in 1942 for $1200... When they retired in 1980 they shold it for $850,000. Inflation exists for many reasons most of which revolve around the laws of supply and demand as well as the theories involving ';the time value of money'; a dollar today is worth more then a dollor tomorrow because of interest. Inflation is a double edged sword for governement because it deals directly with economical issues. The value of the us dollar as compared to other contries currency is very important. If the value of the dollar drops to much other countries such as Japan and China will stop buying US bonds. Bonds are part of the way that the goverment receives money. So if inflation is good the value of our dollar goes up and other countries and people buy us savings bonds... if it is bad then people sell off the US savings bonds and the economy slows and growth declines in the market, people here become angry and if nothing is done we revolt and start again... thats also how we became a country...Is it true that houses used to cost $4,500?
They sure did. My parents bought a house in Texas in the 60's for $6,000! I was like ';wow';! In California, it's so hard to buy anything!
yes they did when annual salaries were $2000
why does inflation exist - because the people running our pension funds try to make more money each year with the same capital.. it is not sustainable in the very long term...

Is it true that unemployment is a social construct used to keep minimum wage low?
That's one way to look at it. No recent government has advocated full employment, as that would push wages up and lead to more inroads by organized labor. It also helps explain the government's relaxed attitude about illegal immigration.Is it true that unemployment is a social construct used to keep minimum wage low?
it doesnt really matter. you see even if minimum wage was higher the prices of goods/services would also increase. the problems would remain the same but with larger numbers. so think about it why would you use unemployment as a social construct to keep minimum wage low when common sense is enough... raising it would result in confusion and hectic comments as to why are ppl still having financial problems........student loan

Reporters seem to all be driving their agenda's now. Is true journalism dead in the U.S. as we use to know it?
Quality, unbiased journalism is dead and has been for at least 15 years if not longer.
I've heard that humans use only 10% of their brain. is this true?
If this is true, is the other 90% used for other things, such as body organ functuion, ect.. or is it just there?I've heard that humans use only 10% of their brain. is this true?
Don't get worried when u heard that we only use 10% of our brain. The president uses none at all.I've heard that humans use only 10% of their brain. is this true?
The statement that humans use only 10% of their brain originally was meant to signify that only 10% of the brain's capacity for storing and processing information was used up in an average lifetime. We are capable of learning, remembering, and processing much more than any of us actually do. It's like having a car with 500 horsepower that you never drive over 30 miles an hour. If we spent more time studying, thinking, solving problems, etc. We could, even with our best efforts, never run out of storage or processing capacity. That's what the statement is trying to indicate.
There is some people believe that our brain has been ';locked'; for some reason or so that we cannot be ';over'; smart...but for me? i do think this 10-15% of usage already enough for human bring to create so much trouble in the world of today.
From Wikipedia.com
';Myth: Humans use only 10% or 1% of their brain. Though the brain still holds mysteries that are being studied, every part of the brain is known to have a function. A possible origin of this myth is the fact that only about 10% of the neurons in the brain are firing at any given time. However, if all of your neurons began firing at once, you would not become smarter, but instead suffer an epileptic seizure. In fact studies have shown that the brains of more intelligent people are less active than the brains of less intelligent people, when working on the same problems.
The large (unreasonable) amount of identical structures may arise during the evolution as a result of mutation, damaging the termination chain (the cauliflower ';superbud';, for instance). From the other side, the power of computing device may be increased just by adding more identical components (more processors, more memory chips). Hence the argumentation that the significant redundancy is ';evolutionary impossible'; is not strictly true. However there are no evidence that brain contains the similary large number of redundant structures and especially that they could be simply activated for the useful work.';
We use 100% of our brains all of the time, but some areas of the brain have more activity at different times as the bright spots show on a brain scan.
For example, when you are deep in thought your brain will show more activity in the thought and reasoning areas than when you are just watching TV.
But none of our brain is ';just there';, we use it all.
Drug users like to say we only use 10% of our brains so as not to worry about getting brain damage. But brain damage is exactly what they are getting from drug use.

Is it true that a man's semen could be used to do facials?
I have a friend that says that men's semen could be used to reduce wrinkles and acne!Is it true that a man's semen could be used to do facials?
Is that friend a man and is he offering to donate?
The sexual term for ejaculating all over a woman's face is a 'facial,' but it has nothing to do with acne or wrinkles.

What happens when u are a true friend 2 someone and they use u ?
I have this ';friend'; and 4 a long time I was really messed up across the board and at that time she was a single mother who was doing her best and supporting herself and her child very well.My life changed drastically when I had my children and I went thru varios turmoils and up until she married this guy she only knew 4 a few months she would be supportive but never like she was b4 she was with him.This dude has taken her life 2 all time lows.He got one spot shot up,he got her evicted from another spot,and he was cheating and hustling the entire time.She has been with this loser 4 seven years and 4 of those she has lived in his mothers basement and her daughter doesnt even live there with her.She has been bounced around from B-more 2 Detroit since she was 9 or 10 I know.This friend has not called me for months but when she feels like playin' games with him or venting about him or she wants 2 smoke 4 free she doesnt come around and she never has any money.What happens when u are a true friend 2 someone and they use u ?
oh boy.....r u my sister from another mister or something? half of your postings are a repeat of my life.
she is ALLOWING all this to happen. i say, give her one sound ';tell her like it is'; ';no more using me for revenge on your man or smokes etc. you are f'ing up your life and i am not going to sit here and watch you do it'; ';if you want help now, i will do what i can, but if you don't, you are going to have to stay out of my life until you do';. anything less than that is being co-dependent. i let my sister do this to me for years... it was hell. she was actually using dope and i'll bet your friend is too. (i really don't care how people party in their lives, but when it is what their lives are about and it brings crap my way...get out!) she kept dragging ';crap'; and ';drama'; into my life. i had to choose to not let her anymore. i am way more happy. she is clean now, not because of me but nonetheless....What happens when u are a true friend 2 someone and they use u ?
You just need to convince her that she will be better on her own, and that she should start making plans to leave him.
And maybe you could try phoning her, if you miss her that much, I don't think she knows that she uses you.
dont get in it if she wants to destroy her life let her sometimes the hard way is the only way

Can a man who had sex with a girl under 16 use the excuse of not knowing her true age 2 escape conviction?
what if the man says or prooves that he was mislead or had no reason to doubt the girl's age who claimed to be over 16 which in fact is under 16, and that sex was conssential, can he use that as a defence?
is it statutory rape?
=)Can a man who had sex with a girl under 16 use the excuse of not knowing her true age 2 escape conviction?
Only if you can sho she intentionally misrepresented her ageCan a man who had sex with a girl under 16 use the excuse of not knowing her true age 2 escape conviction?
One can, but it won't work.
It depends on where you live. Unfortunately it is often the case that even if the girl said she was of legal age someone can be prosecuted . In certain areas there is a proviso that if you are 18 or below (or maybe younger than 18) then you can be excused for not knowing the girls age. Seems like a stupid proviso to me because if you were closer to the girl's age I would think you would have more chance of actually guessing her true age rather than just relying on trusting that the girl is telling the truth. There have been a couple of high profile cases recently where underaged girls have lied and the man has been found guilty. It seems to be the case that being mislead is not a mitigating circumstance. I would suggest your best bet would be to get some legal advice.
No, he cannot use it as a defense. Ignorance is no excuse for breaking the law, in most cases.
He still needs to go to jail.
yes, he can escape conviction. even a judge is mislef bylooking at the appearance of a person .presented in court.
No. he cant. there is a presumption that every person is expected to know every single piece of offence committable.
Circumstantial evidence can help: like she's in a bar drinking beer. One can presume by law she's of age. If you can prove with witness testimony than you have a defense. Or if she's in possession of fake ID and you can prove it. Courts of law aren't about right and wrong, legal or illegal, ONLY about what can be proved by either side: prosecution or defense. The burden of proof they say is on the prosecution but don't you believe it. Now a days: you are guilty unless proven innocent. You need a top gun attorney!! It is considered statutory rape unless you can provide evidentiary defense not he said she said defense.
I don't think so, no.
No YOU can't use that excuse. You're going down my friend.
Very difficult to prove he didn't know. Likewise, it doesn't matter if sex was consensual. It's still statutory rape. Wanna be on the safe side? Date older women.student loan

Is it true that using your phone while on the charge can be harmful?
NO, there is nothing wrong with using your phone while it is on the charger. The reason companies say that is becasue if anything could happen, they do not want to be responsible. They think of all the ways one could injure themselves in order to sue a company. If anything, having the phone charging on a day of a lightning stirke could surge through the phone, so don't use the phone charged on a rainy day.Is it true that using your phone while on the charge can be harmful?

Let your ears and mouth use the mobile phones,. Don't let your testicles use them, because report says that mobile phones if kept
near your testicles affects the count sperm counts because of the
radio-active waves your phone emits. So be very careful not hanging you phone near your hanging testicles.
Have you seen the video of the 4 mobile phones placed round the microwavable popcorn then they call all 4 phones and the popcorn starts popping !!!!!!! nuff said.

well my view is that xp was out before dual core processors were invented so people at microsoft couldn't really design their operating system around dual core processors, but when dual processors came out (around the time vista was in its design state) the people at microsoft were able to design vista around dual cores so they could to co-operate more efficiently with the new operating system rather than with xp.Is it true that Dual Core CPUs works better if using windows Vista instead of Xp?
This is not true as Windows XP has native support of dual core CPUs. I have never seen any evidence to support this claim, but I have seen evidence of XP being quicker than Vista because it uses fewer resources.

If you lose it buy another one.
No, that is just retarded to think...you'll be ok...
I wouldn't know. I always use it. Oh, hang on..are we talking about the same thing here?
if you are talking about one's brain then yes.
Well, if you're talking evolution-wise here, I'd say yes. For example, sea-creatures that evolved into 'air breathers' or 'land animals' stopped using their fins and, as a result, lost them over time...
I dunno...I always use it!
I once heard that from a sermon of a priest in our church... he said if you dont use the talents God has given you, you will lose it....that is true...all of us should use our God-given talents lest we lose it....
Nah, I mean, where's it gonna go? who's gonna want it?
I keep ';it'; in a jar in the attic!
Might as well make the most of ';it';.
ya damn right
when you dont use your brain you lose it
lol you become mad
No,,,
Sometime its left without use %26amp; I lose it,

give us more info, or your source or sumting...
i have no idea
That is the prevailing theory. But, ask yourself why some of us using the same 1/3 capacity have higher/lower IQ results?
Its very true that we dont use the full potential our brain endures. For example, sorry if your not a believer in god but, in the age of Adam and Eve we used 100% of our brain. Adam named the animals, plants and stars. Doing this is harder than it seems, especially to create a language and make it universal for others to follow.. We use our brains for basic motor skills and VERY basic thinking.. But our intellegince is steadily declining due to video games and TV.. and a sort of de-evolution.. And archeologists continue to uncover evidence of anciant techonology that surpasses our own.. Very decreitly however.. And in the bibly again, it talks of angels coming down to Earth and impregnating mortal women, creating ';super'; humans.. Crossing mortalitiy with the divine would create such a master race.. but aside from Noah and his family, all were wiped out by the flood.. We only use a small percentage of our brains, I believe because god relents to give us our once true power.. If we had harnessed and control that power toaday, we would almost certainly destroy oursleves..
Only surface value? Hmm... maybe. Maybe if we used more the metaphysical stuff would kick in somehow. I ponder this too.
Of course that is true!
I think we see what we want to see. Other parts of our brains can be utilised if we try a range of activities. Brains need exercise too. It's been proven that doing puzzles etc can help the elderly keep their brains active.
The idea that we only use 13% of our brains is an urban myth. We actually use almost all of our brains, with different parts being active at different times.
scientists don't say we only use a small percentage of our brains.we use 100% of our brains and scientists know that.
Yes, I believe that. That's why we should respect a religion that addresses the essence of us and asks us to BELIEVE with our heart rather than just believe with our senses.
Life is more than that of which we see or think that we see.
We are nothing but a small atom in a world that our brain can't realize, and this world is growing as we speak !
duhhh its true. we don't use certain parts of our brain from childhood and we eventually loose capability of using those parts. For all we know, we could levetate things and move them. you never know. Maybe some parts release some kind of supernatural energy that would be normal to us if we used those parts of our brain.
Yes it is absolutely true and I have proof. Bush is president.
sure
I don't know but I do know that when our eyes see something it dosen't register in our brains for a few seconds. So, we literally see everything in the past tense.
I believe it. Not so much that we're walking around like retarded humans who don't use all their brains at the same time, but more like humans who never use a certain function of the brain.
I feel this way becuase we have so many different living things on this planet that can do so many other amazing things. There are flys that can see infrared, dolphins that communicate with sonar, and all that other stuff.
Did you know, that humans used to be born with the memories of their parents? Could you imagine being born and remembering (as if you did it) something that your mother or father had done? Talk about learning from others' mistakes!
Not really. There are many things that do not need more that 1% of our brain to understand. Other things will need a 100% educated and well trained brain to understand. That's why we can only guess the answer to a question like ';What is the meaning of life?';
100% bs
It has been pretty well established; the usual human uses 1200 words or less in his vocabulary.. the potential is at least 10,000 words. This is just at the conscious level... there are many other aspects of the mind, as indicated by the different wave lengths found there. Someone would have to concentrate at each level to be functionally using all of their brian.. and that represents just the levels we know of presently.
Very few people spend much time discussing other that surface level subjects.
Probably. We dont really see the depths of things, we just see them at.. well.. ';surface value';.
I believe it. Just look at the answers on Yahoo.

Is it true that during the roman empire, early christians practised cannibalism and used donkeys during rites?
';used'; as in prayed to, or had alot of reverence or them, as well as putting the head of a donkey on a crucifix then worshipping it?
This is a serious question. I know during the roman empire many early christian sects were accused of cannibalism and extreme acts of self torture, however how much of this is true?
Also to all modern christians who will simply say ';no, ofcourse that is untrue'; please research or have a good understanding of early christianity first.
I would like to thank all in advance who answer this question.Is it true that during the roman empire, early christians practised cannibalism and used donkeys during rites?
This reminds one of the idea of what makes a Christian a Christian. ';Christians'; in their earliest form were mostly members of the Jewish community that thought Jesus was the Messiah. Only after later ';church'; (at the time more a movement that an established hierarchy we think of today) did leaders such as Paul come to try and include Gentiles. During this period there was a lot of room for open interpretation of what Christianity meant, and, as an earlier poster noted, their were groups such as the Gnostics. I am not arguing there legitimacy or lack thereof, but they were just one of many such groups. While the ';Church'; as wee know it today eventually won out there is still evidence of these other groups in much of their writing, and they were diverse in practices and beliefs. (I am not talking about in crazy DaVinci Code bad history here, but legitimate splinter groups.) The point that I am setting up here though, is that there is no evidence that even these other early groups practiced anything as bizarre as cannibalism or donkey worship.
As a side note, some archaeologists reject the idea that there have ever been societies that truly practiced real ';cannibalism'; as portrayed in popular culture (excluding endocannabalism) and that it was actually a way of one social or cultural group labeling another as Pariahs.Is it true that during the roman empire, early christians practised cannibalism and used donkeys during rites?
Well, as you may or may not know, early Christians were persecuted for their practices as they were very different from traditional Roman beliefs. One example of this is the disposition of the recently deceased. Romans cremated their dead and with the underground nature of the early Catholic church; i think it's fair to assume that cannibalism was an acceptable alternative given the circumstances.
Well the way things like that work is that some enemy of the Christians said that Christians did such nasty things, and then some sick and twisted individuals probably decided to become Christians because they heard that Christians did such nasty things and it sounded cool. Its called a self fulfilling prophecy, or the dookie-in-dreadlocks argument. So what!?!?
well, there were the gnostics, who practiced self-torture, but they all weren't christian and christianity didn't agree with them. i;ve never heard of the donkey thing, but it sounds weird
gee. this is new to me. i find, however, it to be kind of suspect since the early christians originally were jews and to the jews, donkeys were too rare to eat %26amp; use as sacrifice. they viewed beasts of burden the same as we see cars. we use but not abuse unless we want to see our cars 'give out'. the donkey was kind of like the cadillacs of beasts during that time. if you had one, you were rich. the more animals of domestication available to you? wow! you were a person of importance. in fact, for a daughter's offering at marriage, these animals were given as a brideprice. now as for cannibalism? in extreme times, this would be the last resort but by then, ALL people would consider this to survive regardless of religion. again, though, go back to the torah and read the earliest entries. what was allowed then would also find its way into the new testament or christian texts. the romans said many damaging things about the early christians - they were fearful of them 'cause while the roman jews placated the romans , somewhat, the early christians - already separated from their jewish brethern - had little or no fear of roman authority. not scared of the romans? if you had no fear of roman %26amp; roman authority, you were feared %26amp; suspect. early christians had their hands full trying to stay alive, keep their faith %26amp; one step ahead of the roman prelate i kind of doubt they would risk further wrath by practicing donkey death %26amp; eating one another. hey! you're not confusing the eating of the host (symbolic) to the real eating of human flesh, are you? no way, jose! wine substituted for blood %26amp; the disk of small unleaven bread substituted for body/flesh. it's all ritual %26amp; totallyt symbolic but at no time was the 'real' thing eaten or drank. ask any priest or ladies of the cloth, ok?
Sounds like you were reading a lot of Roman propaganda that was bandied about at that time.
During the Hebrew revolt against Rome and the Roman siege of Jerusalem, there are reports of starving Jewish defenders eating the dead bodies of those that died. Not a part of any ritual or religious practice, just a survival mechanism. Same as the Donner party in American history or the Soccer players that crashed in the Andes.
As far as worshiping Donkeys, never heard that one at all.
All true christians, even the early ones, were schooled in the ten commandments: ';Thou shalt not have any other god before me, for I thy god, am a jealous god';. Although I am an atheist, I strongly suspect the Romans of making up rumours about christianity, and they went so far as to make it punishable by death, regarding it as a threat to their warlike and aggressive culture (the Etruscans, the Sabines, the Volsci, the Gauls, the Greeks, the Egyptians; all succumbed to the might of the Roman legions).
The majority of them did not, but Christianity is prone to wackjob cults (Branch Davidians, People's Temple) so it is possible a minority of them did.

Is it true that if you don't use it you loose it?
serious answers plzIs it true that if you don't use it you loose it?
Ya when your peeing it falls into the urinal and some little leprechaun comes and eats it.Is it true that if you don't use it you loose it?
yes.
for example, if you were in a car accident
and broke both your legs, and had to use a wheel
chair for 6 months before they healed,
your leg muscles would deteriorate
leaving your unable to walk. at least until
you go through physical therapy and gain
all your muscle back.
hope i helped!!
Pretty much, yeah -- it applies to everything -- sexual ability, brain power, muscles -- just everything.
Kind thoughts,
Hermes
If you bind your arm to your chest - over a peiod of time you will lose the use of that arm. It applies to all parts of the body.
Loose what? Is something loose? Are you trying to loosen something?
You probably meant to say LOSE, but maybe not.
no
that`s a bunch of
bull.
don`t listen to the fags
who reply to your question
saying GO MASTURBATE or something
cas no.
No, lol what tard told you that? You will always have it...besides you have to urinate, right?
Yes, it is true
That's the most stupid question, you wont loose it if you don't use it
that has been my experience.student loan

If you bind your arm to your chest - over a peiod of time you will lose the use of that arm. It applies to all parts of the body.

You certainly have difficulty remembering where it is and what it's there for.Is it true that if you don't use it you lose it?
Ever took algebra? I lost it, never use it:)
Depends what you are talking about. May be you don't lose it but you have to learn how to use it again.

If you lose it buy another one.
No, that is just retarded to think...you'll be ok...
I wouldn't know. I always use it. Oh, hang on..are we talking about the same thing here?
if you are talking about one's brain then yes.
Well, if you're talking evolution-wise here, I'd say yes. For example, sea-creatures that evolved into 'air breathers' or 'land animals' stopped using their fins and, as a result, lost them over time...
I dunno...I always use it!

Nah, I mean, where's it gonna go? who's gonna want it?
I keep ';it'; in a jar in the attic!

ya damn right
when you dont use your brain you lose it

No,,,

give us more info, or your source or sumting...
i have no idea
That is the prevailing theory. But, ask yourself why some of us using the same 1/3 capacity have higher/lower IQ results?
Its very true that we dont use the full potential our brain endures. For example, sorry if your not a believer in god but, in the age of Adam and Eve we used 100% of our brain. Adam named the animals, plants and stars. Doing this is harder than it seems, especially to create a language and make it universal for others to follow.. We use our brains for basic motor skills and VERY basic thinking.. But our intellegince is steadily declining due to video games and TV.. and a sort of de-evolution.. And archeologists continue to uncover evidence of anciant techonology that surpasses our own.. Very decreitly however.. And in the bibly again, it talks of angels coming down to Earth and impregnating mortal women, creating ';super'; humans.. Crossing mortalitiy with the divine would create such a master race.. but aside from Noah and his family, all were wiped out by the flood.. We only use a small percentage of our brains, I believe because god relents to give us our once true power.. If we had harnessed and control that power toaday, we would almost certainly destroy oursleves..
Only surface value? Hmm... maybe. Maybe if we used more the metaphysical stuff would kick in somehow. I ponder this too.
Of course that is true!
I think we see what we want to see. Other parts of our brains can be utilised if we try a range of activities. Brains need exercise too. It's been proven that doing puzzles etc can help the elderly keep their brains active.
The idea that we only use 13% of our brains is an urban myth. We actually use almost all of our brains, with different parts being active at different times.
scientists don't say we only use a small percentage of our brains.we use 100% of our brains and scientists know that.
Yes, I believe that. That's why we should respect a religion that addresses the essence of us and asks us to BELIEVE with our heart rather than just believe with our senses.
Life is more than that of which we see or think that we see.
We are nothing but a small atom in a world that our brain can't realize, and this world is growing as we speak !
duhhh its true. we don't use certain parts of our brain from childhood and we eventually loose capability of using those parts. For all we know, we could levetate things and move them. you never know. Maybe some parts release some kind of supernatural energy that would be normal to us if we used those parts of our brain.
Yes it is absolutely true and I have proof. Bush is president.
sure
I don't know but I do know that when our eyes see something it dosen't register in our brains for a few seconds. So, we literally see everything in the past tense.
I believe it. Not so much that we're walking around like retarded humans who don't use all their brains at the same time, but more like humans who never use a certain function of the brain.
I feel this way becuase we have so many different living things on this planet that can do so many other amazing things. There are flys that can see infrared, dolphins that communicate with sonar, and all that other stuff.
Did you know, that humans used to be born with the memories of their parents? Could you imagine being born and remembering (as if you did it) something that your mother or father had done? Talk about learning from others' mistakes!
Not really. There are many things that do not need more that 1% of our brain to understand. Other things will need a 100% educated and well trained brain to understand. That's why we can only guess the answer to a question like ';What is the meaning of life?';
100% bs
It has been pretty well established; the usual human uses 1200 words or less in his vocabulary.. the potential is at least 10,000 words. This is just at the conscious level... there are many other aspects of the mind, as indicated by the different wave lengths found there. Someone would have to concentrate at each level to be functionally using all of their brian.. and that represents just the levels we know of presently.
Very few people spend much time discussing other that surface level subjects.
Probably. We dont really see the depths of things, we just see them at.. well.. ';surface value';.
I believe it. Just look at the answers on Yahoo.

Is it true that during the roman empire, early christians practised cannibalism and used donkeys during rites?
';used'; as in prayed to, or had alot of reverence or them, as well as putting the head of a donkey on a crucifix then worshipping it?
This is a serious question. I know during the roman empire many early christian sects were accused of cannibalism and extreme acts of self torture, however how much of this is true?
Also to all modern christians who will simply say ';no, ofcourse that is untrue'; please research or have a good understanding of early christianity first.
I would like to thank all in advance who answer this question.Is it true that during the roman empire, early christians practised cannibalism and used donkeys during rites?
This reminds one of the idea of what makes a Christian a Christian. ';Christians'; in their earliest form were mostly members of the Jewish community that thought Jesus was the Messiah. Only after later ';church'; (at the time more a movement that an established hierarchy we think of today) did leaders such as Paul come to try and include Gentiles. During this period there was a lot of room for open interpretation of what Christianity meant, and, as an earlier poster noted, their were groups such as the Gnostics. I am not arguing there legitimacy or lack thereof, but they were just one of many such groups. While the ';Church'; as wee know it today eventually won out there is still evidence of these other groups in much of their writing, and they were diverse in practices and beliefs. (I am not talking about in crazy DaVinci Code bad history here, but legitimate splinter groups.) The point that I am setting up here though, is that there is no evidence that even these other early groups practiced anything as bizarre as cannibalism or donkey worship.
As a side note, some archaeologists reject the idea that there have ever been societies that truly practiced real ';cannibalism'; as portrayed in popular culture (excluding endocannabalism) and that it was actually a way of one social or cultural group labeling another as Pariahs.Is it true that during the roman empire, early christians practised cannibalism and used donkeys during rites?
Well, as you may or may not know, early Christians were persecuted for their practices as they were very different from traditional Roman beliefs. One example of this is the disposition of the recently deceased. Romans cremated their dead and with the underground nature of the early Catholic church; i think it's fair to assume that cannibalism was an acceptable alternative given the circumstances.
Well the way things like that work is that some enemy of the Christians said that Christians did such nasty things, and then some sick and twisted individuals probably decided to become Christians because they heard that Christians did such nasty things and it sounded cool. Its called a self fulfilling prophecy, or the dookie-in-dreadlocks argument. So what!?!?
well, there were the gnostics, who practiced self-torture, but they all weren't christian and christianity didn't agree with them. i;ve never heard of the donkey thing, but it sounds weird
gee. this is new to me. i find, however, it to be kind of suspect since the early christians originally were jews and to the jews, donkeys were too rare to eat %26amp; use as sacrifice. they viewed beasts of burden the same as we see cars. we use but not abuse unless we want to see our cars 'give out'. the donkey was kind of like the cadillacs of beasts during that time. if you had one, you were rich. the more animals of domestication available to you? wow! you were a person of importance. in fact, for a daughter's offering at marriage, these animals were given as a brideprice. now as for cannibalism? in extreme times, this would be the last resort but by then, ALL people would consider this to survive regardless of religion. again, though, go back to the torah and read the earliest entries. what was allowed then would also find its way into the new testament or christian texts. the romans said many damaging things about the early christians - they were fearful of them 'cause while the roman jews placated the romans , somewhat, the early christians - already separated from their jewish brethern - had little or no fear of roman authority. not scared of the romans? if you had no fear of roman %26amp; roman authority, you were feared %26amp; suspect. early christians had their hands full trying to stay alive, keep their faith %26amp; one step ahead of the roman prelate i kind of doubt they would risk further wrath by practicing donkey death %26amp; eating one another. hey! you're not confusing the eating of the host (symbolic) to the real eating of human flesh, are you? no way, jose! wine substituted for blood %26amp; the disk of small unleaven bread substituted for body/flesh. it's all ritual %26amp; totallyt symbolic but at no time was the 'real' thing eaten or drank. ask any priest or ladies of the cloth, ok?
Sounds like you were reading a lot of Roman propaganda that was bandied about at that time.
During the Hebrew revolt against Rome and the Roman siege of Jerusalem, there are reports of starving Jewish defenders eating the dead bodies of those that died. Not a part of any ritual or religious practice, just a survival mechanism. Same as the Donner party in American history or the Soccer players that crashed in the Andes.
As far as worshiping Donkeys, never heard that one at all.
All true christians, even the early ones, were schooled in the ten commandments: ';Thou shalt not have any other god before me, for I thy god, am a jealous god';. Although I am an atheist, I strongly suspect the Romans of making up rumours about christianity, and they went so far as to make it punishable by death, regarding it as a threat to their warlike and aggressive culture (the Etruscans, the Sabines, the Volsci, the Gauls, the Greeks, the Egyptians; all succumbed to the might of the Roman legions).
The majority of them did not, but Christianity is prone to wackjob cults (Branch Davidians, People's Temple) so it is possible a minority of them did.
This is a serious question. I know during the roman empire many early christian sects were accused of cannibalism and extreme acts of self torture, however how much of this is true?

well, there were the gnostics, who practiced self-torture, but they all weren't christian and christianity didn't agree with them. i;ve never heard of the donkey thing, but it sounds weird
gee. this is new to me. i find, however, it to be kind of suspect since the early christians originally were jews and to the jews, donkeys were too rare to eat %26amp; use as sacrifice. they viewed beasts of burden the same as we see cars. we use but not abuse unless we want to see our cars 'give out'. the donkey was kind of like the cadillacs of beasts during that time. if you had one, you were rich. the more animals of domestication available to you? wow! you were a person of importance. in fact, for a daughter's offering at marriage, these animals were given as a brideprice. now as for cannibalism? in extreme times, this would be the last resort but by then, ALL people would consider this to survive regardless of religion. again, though, go back to the torah and read the earliest entries. what was allowed then would also find its way into the new testament or christian texts. the romans said many damaging things about the early christians - they were fearful of them 'cause while the roman jews placated the romans , somewhat, the early christians - already separated from their jewish brethern - had little or no fear of roman authority. not scared of the romans? if you had no fear of roman %26amp; roman authority, you were feared %26amp; suspect. early christians had their hands full trying to stay alive, keep their faith %26amp; one step ahead of the roman prelate i kind of doubt they would risk further wrath by practicing donkey death %26amp; eating one another. hey! you're not confusing the eating of the host (symbolic) to the real eating of human flesh, are you? no way, jose! wine substituted for blood %26amp; the disk of small unleaven bread substituted for body/flesh. it's all ritual %26amp; totallyt symbolic but at no time was the 'real' thing eaten or drank. ask any priest or ladies of the cloth, ok?
Sounds like you were reading a lot of Roman propaganda that was bandied about at that time.
During the Hebrew revolt against Rome and the Roman siege of Jerusalem, there are reports of starving Jewish defenders eating the dead bodies of those that died. Not a part of any ritual or religious practice, just a survival mechanism. Same as the Donner party in American history or the Soccer players that crashed in the Andes.
As far as worshiping Donkeys, never heard that one at all.
All true christians, even the early ones, were schooled in the ten commandments: ';Thou shalt not have any other god before me, for I thy god, am a jealous god';. Although I am an atheist, I strongly suspect the Romans of making up rumours about christianity, and they went so far as to make it punishable by death, regarding it as a threat to their warlike and aggressive culture (the Etruscans, the Sabines, the Volsci, the Gauls, the Greeks, the Egyptians; all succumbed to the might of the Roman legions).
The majority of them did not, but Christianity is prone to wackjob cults (Branch Davidians, People's Temple) so it is possible a minority of them did.

serious answers plzIs it true that if you don't use it you loose it?

chair for 6 months before they healed,
your leg muscles would deteriorate
leaving your unable to walk. at least until

all your muscle back.

I have a suspicion of someone using my social security how do i check if its true?
I got a letter from my credit card company saying I need to send in information to verify it for my application and I spoke to a person in the bank and the person said that she thinks someone might be using my social security because credit card companies normally do not ask for that information. This is also the first time I applied for a credit card.I have a suspicion of someone using my social security how do i check if its true?
I would contact the three credit reporting agencies and put a 'fraud alert' on your credit reports. This means that when a company is considering an application for credit from you, or someone pretending to be you, they must contact you before granting any type of credit. If you alert the agencies about potential fraud/identity theft, they will put this alert on your credit report for 3 months for free and send you your credit reports for free so you can review them. (The alert does not affect your score or reflect negatively on you. It just lets creditors know you may potentially be a victim of identity theft.) After the 3 months, you can call and have them continue the alert if you want.
And, if you find that someone IS using your SSN, then you need to file a police report immediately!I have a suspicion of someone using my social security how do i check if its true?
Joy is 200% correct in her answer.
However, to get a copy of your credit report, don't go to ANY of the '; free sites '; offering a credit report for free...these are actually finance companies that are trying to get a copy of your report in order to offer you a loan; these actually hit your score the same as if you directly applied fo the loan.
Go DIRECTLY to the website for Experian, Equifax, and Transunion...and watch out for pop-ups along the way that may take you off the site.
If you think you have been a victim of fraud, the repositories will still give you a free copy of your report.
contact social security administration and have them investigate possible fraud. do this asap as there is far more at stake than just your banking situation. this is a free service.
Contact Social Security ASAP Tell them of your suspicions. Ask to have a new number issued to protect yourself from Identity theft call all your credit card companies and warm them of this activity. File an official report with Identity theft credit Bureau.
Sometimes credit card companies send out letters like this in order to try to obtain your informaiton for the first time. However, you can never be to careful about these matters. I would check your credit report at all three of the major credit agencies: TransUnion, Equifax, Experian. There are lots of ways to obtain a free credit report for one month. There are even sites that will continuously moniter your credit report and email you when anything changes, that's what I have. Check out freecreditreport.com I think that site shows you one of your reports free for a month and then you are able to cancel it if you don't want to have to start paying for the service monthly.

If you dont use it, you lose it. TRUE OR FALSE?
This is a funny question, its talking about a guys penis, (or a girls vagina) and how if you never use it, you will lose it. Lets say some one was so good at fighting of sexual temptation, that they no longer got turned on. Then one day they decide they want to get turned on again, and cant. Did they lose it forever? Maybe you know an actual scientific fact, maybe you have an opinion what do you think?If you dont use it, you lose it. TRUE OR FALSE?
I think its like riding a bike....little practise and you are right back in the race!!!

Please has anyone tried using Botulinum toxin to treat Strabismus. I read that it works. How true is that?
I've got Strabismus, started like 5 years ago, and though it does not affect my confidence, i just want it gone.
So please if anyone has concrete info, pls share.Please has anyone tried using Botulinum toxin to treat Strabismus. I read that it works. How true is that?
Yes, botox can be used to treat strabismus. It depends on the underlying cause of your strabismus. If your strabismus is caused by a muscle paresis, botox can be injected into the antagonist muscle to prevent it from working, thus straightening your eye. I have seen patients with marked improvement in their alignment, though it has usually been temporary. (a few months)
Please visit with a pediatric ophthalmologist and ask them if you're a good candidate for botox or if you're a better candidate for other treatments.
The first link explains more about strabismus, and the second is a link of info from Children's Hospital they give their patients who are having Botox treatments for strabismus.

Botox is a possilble treatment for certain strabismus cases. Not very common though and not permanent, only temporary. Typically, if strabismus needs treatment it will involve glasses and operating room surgery to straigten out eyes. Discuss that with your ophthalmologist.
Yes it does work in certain types of strabismus.
You should be examined by an Ophthalmologist who's speciaty or subspecialty is Pediatric Ophthalmology and Adult Strabismus to determine if it indicated for your type of strabismus.

Would using true non-volatile memory to stop-gap the clock on portable devices with PC CPU's improve speed?
Could significantly better performance be acheived by not having designed in time-sequence termination, by eliminating a certain malfunction superceding domain? In other words, could CPU designs work that aren't commonly used and the like, and could power savings be achieved by incorporating a simple MRAM or FRAM with last full date, that can only manually be over-ridden by a user who has a previous data/functionality problem?Would using true non-volatile memory to stop-gap the clock on portable devices with PC CPU's improve speed?
Your English is a bit baffling but it appears that you are talking about asynchronous processors. You can get significant power savings that way and asynchronous processors like the ';Amulet'; have proven that it can work.

Is it true that in america we wil need cable to watch tv and we cannot use attenas anymore i cant afford cable
There will still be free TV that you can get with an antenna. Almost all analog TV broadcasts will be shut off on 2/17/09 but they are already being replaced with free digital TV broadcasts.
The digital broadcasts have the same programs as the old ones. Some people will pick up channels they couldn't get before.
All your old TV needs to receive the new digital channels is a converter box. If you get good UHF (analog channels 14-69) now, you should be able to use your old TV antenna. With a converter box you should get DVD like quality when watching broadcasts on your old TV.
Starting in Jan 2008 the government will be starting a coupon program that will let you buy a couple of these converters for about $20 each.Is it true that in america we wil need cable to watch tv and we cannot use attenas anymore i cant afford cable
I think 5 channels are available over the air.
ABC
NBC
UPN
CBS
MPTIs it true that in america we wil need cable to watch tv and we cannot use attenas anymore i cant afford cable
No, not true. All cities have broadcast stations, at least for the major networks. However, it's in the suburbs and small towns where broadcast is not available.
However, the major reason that users are switching to cable and satellite is the larger variety of channels available, and because of poor reception from broadcast.
However, be warned that all TV broadcasts will switch modes from analog to digital in a few years (Feb 09), and after that point you will need a special converter box for older TVs.
In 2009 you will need to buy a digital converter box to hook to your TV, but if I understand correctly you will still be able to use your antenna

I heard that if you use preparation H on your tummy, that it tightens it up ALOT..Is this true?
Yes, it is true. Preperation H, and all hemmorhoid treatments work by reducing swelling of tissue - that's to say that if your 'roids are swollen and painful, you put the cream on and said swelling is reduced.
Now let's imagine that you have some swelling elsewhere - legs, stomach, etc. The same principle applies.
This is a common trick used by beauty queens right before they go on stage, used to provide a slimming effect. The effect is not long lasting, and essentially goes away once the medicine is gone.I heard that if you use preparation H on your tummy, that it tightens it up ALOT..Is this true?
Never heard of this one but I don't see why not.I heard that if you use preparation H on your tummy, that it tightens it up ALOT..Is this true?
I assume it has some effect on the stomach, because it is known that models, the night before a fashion show will slather it onto their legs and cover their legs in tight stockings/panty hose/something tight that stays ';sealed'; to the legs to make their legs look firmer for the show. So, I figure it will have a similar - while probably a bit less signifigant - effect on the stomach. Not that I would think it is completely good for you, but that isn't part of the question.
You know I have heard this before as well as using it on your face to help tighten it up, but I don't know if I would use it ';other than as directed'; on the jar.
i havnt heard of the tummy thing but i have tried it on my under -eyes when i was hung over for a lift and it worked.
i also heard that girls in beauty pagents put it on there thighs right before the pagent.
it seems like it would be a temporary thing though--im sure whatever it did would go back once you wash it off.
haven't heard this one before, but i do know that it can reduce the wrinkles around your eyes and mouth. a pharmacist friend even told me this...i haven't had to use it yet though.
I haven't heard that, but I do know that a little dab under the eyes will help get rid of that puffy/dark circle look.
um no. absolutely not. prep h is to stop itching, not to firm up things.
No, don't waste your money; there are no ingredients in Prep H that would do that.
No. It restricts blood vessels, and will thus only cause a small almost of shrinkage -- which is why it can help under the eyes.
But it will relieve any hemorrhoids that form on the stomach area. People that use their abdomen instead of their butt to rest on long drives in old school buses suffer this frequently. Always sit on your butt on those drives, or stand up if you bus driver is too drunk to notice.student loan

For my mum it would be good health - she's pretty ill.
For my freind Bruce it would be a new job. He's been treated like crap and has lost all his sparkle and confidence.
For the men and women who are currently serving in the armed forces, I would wish for peace so they can come home and be safe.

I would give one wish to my nephew Logan...it would be for him to get better everyday (he is autistic)
I would give one wish to a friend Ashley...it would be for her to overcome her cancer
I would give one wish to my brother-in-law...it would be to fight his alcoholism that way he could better provide for my sister and her family

My father - the recognition he deserves for saving countless lives while serving in the military, a nice big woodworking shop in the backyard, and the respect he would earn by being given full run of his own company.
My boss - to experience the hardships i have had to endure in my lifetime so he can in some small way, fathom my point of view, and understand why i fight so hard to do the right thing for our customers.
My wife - 5 million dollars, so she can give one million to each of us, keep one million for herself, and one million for our daughter. her health to be perfect, and her asthma to be taken away.

Is it true that a large majority of food you eat is used for healing if you work out in the weight room?
When you get really sore and your muscles need nutrients to heal?
I ask because my dad works out everyday of his life and hes so freaking buff. He has no fat on his belly what so ever and he told me thats why.Is it true that a large majority of food you eat is used for healing if you work out in the weight room?
Yes, it is trueIs it true that a large majority of food you eat is used for healing if you work out in the weight room?
Pretty much...
Not sure why he works out everyday you need to have rest days otherwise your muscles wont recover.
60-70% of calories burnt in a day a from regular activities and keeping your body going
20-30% of calories burnt are consumed during a hard work out
10% of calories are burnt by lean muscle when resting I.e. the more muscle you have the more calories you burn
Basically the nutrients in the food you consume will go towards rebuilding muscle, protein to build muscle fibres, carbs to provide quick energy and restore muscle glycogen levels and fat to provide longer term energy.

';Americans use the throat to speak '; . Is it true ?
An Egyption writer says that when he visited New York , for the firs time he noticed that American don't use their lips ; they use their throats .

Copyright 1996 .';Americans use the throat to speak '; . Is it true ?
Everybody uses the throat to speak. The larynx is there. The only way you speak without using the throat is if you had your larynx removed.
Now you say that, I have observed that when yanks speak Spanish they don't use the lips either. I don't know how they can do that';Americans use the throat to speak '; . Is it true ?
I've heard they used their mouths ^o^
what?????
well i talk using my lips, ventriloquists use their throats

Long use of LAPTOP causes impotency. is it true?
no what it does is bring down your sperm count in order to survive sperm has to be at a slightly higher temperture than our bodies (its way it hangs when your hot and why it comes up when your cold) so when you have the warmth of the laptop it lowers the amount of sperm you have but it doesnt make you impotent since you constantly make new spermLong use of LAPTOP causes impotency. is it true?
Good God, I hope not!Long use of LAPTOP causes impotency. is it true?
Laptop produces heat which increases the temperature in penile region which may damage ot reduce the sperm count. Research is going on.

NO if it were true id never have kids..lol
in a way, laptops make heat, heat isnt good for your boys

Has anyone used Soriatane before? Is it true in practice that you can drink no alcohol whatsoever on it?
I am trying to decide whether to start using Soriatane, and I am a social drinker. I only have a drink once or twice a week, and it is almost always literally a single drink when I do. If anyone has considered this issue before, or has actually drank lightly while using Soriatane, please let me know what your experience has been. Thanks.Has anyone used Soriatane before? Is it true in practice that you can drink no alcohol whatsoever on it?
Here's a website on it.
http://www.pdrhealth.com/drug_info/rxdru鈥?/a>
Note the side effects, and decide if you really want to take it.
Apparently, if you take it, and drink, it will stay in your body longer, and thus if you have adverse side effects, they will last longer.
You may want to try natural remedies first.
Check out Via Viente. I heard it works well for some people.Has anyone used Soriatane before? Is it true in practice that you can drink no alcohol whatsoever on it?
I drank socially at 10 mg and 25 mg doses. But at 50 mg my skin became extremely sensitive in some areas and uncomfortably dry and itchy everywhere. When I drink these side effects intensify and patches of painful sunburn-like rashes appear. This should be a 3-6 month regimen so I've quit drinking.

You live by the gun, you die by the gun. Remember that.
Germany: The Germans were already fed up with Hitler's ';leadership'; by the time that the Allies invaded Normandy. The German generals (including Rommel) were plotting to overthrow and assassinate Hitler and had surreptitiously contacted the US who completely rebuffed them. When Germany was taken over by the Allies, it was split into East and West with the East being handed to the homicidal maniac Stalin by his friend and admirer FDR. I wouldn't call this ';saving'; Germany.
Japan: Japan also contacted American agents in Swizerland, offering surrender (before EITHER nuke was dropped). The only sticking point was that the US was DEMANDING an unconditional surrender, whereas the Japanese wanted to retain the current leadership structure in their nation. So, instead of accepting their surrender with this ONE, SINGLE condition, the US dropped two nuclear bombs on Japan, destroying two cities and hundreds of thousands of lives. This is ';saving'; Japan?
France: If you're speaking of WWII, France was conquered by Germany and liberated by the Allies. France was a democracy prior to the German occupation and after.
Perhaps you should brush up on your history.
What would life be like in your town if the police force didn't exist? Because of human nature, peace can only be obtained by force of arms.

Is it true that electric transformers for celular phones, laptop computer, printers,etc, keep using power?
I wanr to know if they use power even when not in use, to disconnect them.Is it true that electric transformers for celular phones, laptop computer, printers,etc, keep using power?
Yes and no. When they are plugged in they are using a minimal amount only because they are completeing a circuit. BUT, the output, or secondary side of the transformer is not drawing any power, so the primary, or plug side, does not pull any amps because there is no load on the output. The reason its warm is because it is completeing the circuit between the hot and neutral of your home electrical lines. There is a potential for voltage, but no flowing of current.Is it true that electric transformers for celular phones, laptop computer, printers,etc, keep using power?
Yes, many do. Some don't.
Those that have any electronic circuitry for regulation etc will.
Those that have a complete off switch on the power side of the transformer don't.
Try this, when the device is off, or not connected, try putting your hand on the transformer (assuming it is an external one). If it is warm, it is converting some electricity to heat and using power.
Yes, when they are in outlet they are taking some power. But very little. When they are disconnected they don't take any energy.student loan

Yes, when they are in outlet they are taking some power. But very little. When they are disconnected they don't take any energy.
Is it true that the US banned cannabis as Dupont knew it could be used to make cheap plastic, Randolph Hearst?
didn't want the competition to his paper mills, and Anslinger had interests in the cotton industry, so they conspired to have it banned, not just in the US, but throughout the world using political pressure, and military might?Is it true that the US banned cannabis as Dupont knew it could be used to make cheap plastic, Randolph Hearst?
Hearst and the Dupont family definitely had an interest in hemp not becoming a viable product. It is not a simple as that though. Harry Anslinger along with other prohibitionists used unfounded claims that blacks were using jazz and ';killer weed'; to lure and defile white women. The same kinds of claim minus jazz were used to discriminate against migrant Mexican workers during the Depression because they became extremely undesirable. I sincerely doubt that Anslinger was a true believer, so playing the race card could have simply been a tactic to achieve his financial interests.Is it true that the US banned cannabis as Dupont knew it could be used to make cheap plastic, Randolph Hearst?
Randolph Hearst was instrumental in the ban, I think Anslinger later realized that it was relatively harmless and Hearst demonized it in his papers to ban it. it may be a controlled substance only because it is hard to control without making it illegal.
no. its banned in the us because its so hard to keep tabs on it, the government could never be sure it raked in all the taxes it'd be due on that sh*t.

Is it true that if you don't use it,you'll lose it?
so true,i had to have mine sowed back on once.Is it true that if you don't use it,you'll lose it?
my lady doctor says yesIs it true that if you don't use it,you'll lose it?
Are you serious?? Oh crap, well thanks for the warning
it depends what the object is. for example, MONEY...if you use it...u lose it..lol
WEll duh!
I guess that would depend on what ';IT'; is...
Oh oh...I'm in big trouble then.
:(
According to my doctor........you will loose ';it';, if you don't use ';it';!
I may be living proof!!
Wait ! Are you talking about YAHOO ???? Oh..... I have no idea.
that's why my hubby lost his years ago, i always wondered what was up
what are you talking about?
yes it's true i mean look at this
if you don't live today tomorrow you might die and you only live once!
or on a lighter note
if you don't drink the milk in the fridge and it goes bad
you didn't use it so you lost it =D
and sour milk is DESCUSTING!!!
My I hope not..It will be 31/2 months with out use little Daryl.
Gawwwwd I hope not, but
my lady doctor told me that the male . . . . ahem . . . . . ';parts'; are better off being used frequently and that disuse is not very good for things ';down there';
Like old plumbing maybe, things rust up
I guess that would depend on what your using and what your going to lose!
usually...
depends wut it is.
it all depends on what you are using
..I hope you're not talking about what i'm thinking ...!!
cuz if you're ..so i'm doomed ....!!
the little major ...
Hmmm...not an expert with that as I try to use it as often as I can...(still not often enough...what about you?)
I'd say for sure
:)~
yes it is true
I wouldn't know, but I have heard that alertness and stamina are affected by non-use.
Yes, and I can '; kill two birds with one stone '; by keeping my right hand in good working order at the same time...
That's my excuse for erm, doing stuff every night....unless there's a nice woman who fancies taking over this? Well, would be a bit hard to live if I lost it.
Erm, I naturally mean my mind of course....although going by current stats, I think I might be losing that battle!
I think so. I didn't use my Yahoo account for an extended period once and they canceled my account. Dang!
And I knew this guy who didn't have sex for a long time and he lost his thing and became a girl and asked a bunch of silly questions on Y/A.
could be checkout the Galapagos's cormorants.
I think so
well i hope not i will make sure i use it every day!

Man I sure hope notIs it true that if you don't use it you lose it?
NO. You lose it once you use it.Is it true that if you don't use it you lose it?
It depends what your using or not using and is it worth losing?
no; you just get explosive and wonder why you didn't use it for so long when you do get a chance to use it
I'm not sure, I always use it.
I asked that Question Many Moons Ago!
And Yes! You will!!
Unless it is used rightly or wrongly anything will get spoiled
LMAO
according to some doctors,yes

Is it true ,that using';cruise control'; in wet and slippery conditions will cause control loss of your car?
Read material from auto manufacturers, from driving schools, from insurance companies, and from police departments, and they all say pretty much the same thing.
Cruise control tries to maintain your car speed under all conditions, and the little computer has no way of knowing you have just hit ice, oil on the road, or rain-slicked surface with variable depths of water.
It is meant to be used under good driving conditions.

The POINT is the driver is ultimately responsible for the car, and the cruise control leads to carelessness. What was described cannot happen in modern cars with stability control and/or traction control. Enough said.

I also point you to a LONG set of discussions on Mythbusters forum
http://community.discovery.com鈥?/a>
I heavily disagree with Kasey C. Cruise control works on speed, NOT engine rpm. CC has the ability to downshift an automatic trans if the set speed cannot be achieved.
Using CC can cause loss of control. The decision to use or not to use should depend on the conditions of the road and traffic. If you were to set your cruise at 30 on a snowy road, your vehicle could easily 'overreact' to a change in speed and spin the drive wheels with possible result of loss of control. A friend of mine was driving her truck in the snow, had set her cruise, and in the ditch she went. The truck applied the throttle during an uphill transition so the trans downshifted and broke the rear tires loose and before she could get it to cancel it was over.
I have a truck that has an aggressive cruise control ('01 Cummins) and it not being stock only made it even more aggressive. It has an easy time breaking the rear end loose in the rain when empty, I don't dare set the cruise when wet unless on flat ground. In the hills I turn it off unless the ground is dry.
Kasey C is wrong in every sense of the word.
The cruise will try to keep the wheel speed at a constant. If you are going uphill and your cruise tries to put more power to your wheels to keep the speed up and you are on ice or snow or are in a channel of water on the roadway that wheel could spin enough to cause loss of control.
What is the first thing you do when you feel your wheels start to slip or spin? You let up on the gas pedal!
Read your owners manual and you will probably find that cruise control is NOT recommended in stormy or slippery conditions.
The answer to that is FALSE.
The reason for that is simple: cruise control basically is like an automatic ';pusher'; for the throttle. Some may have an uphill/downhill sensor to add / subtract a little throttle to stay at the specified RPM, but it's really an RPM set, not a ';speed'; set. So your car will just do whatever it WILL do... normally... as if you were on the throttle. It won't do any more or any less.
With that being said, if you drive through a puddle with only one side of the car on cruise control, and you weren't watching for it, the sudden ';jerk'; of the steering wheel (toward the side with more water, as it has more friction there) would surprise someone, but no more than and no less than a car without cruise control, just someone with foot on throttle.
So technically, it's not the cruise control that caused the loss of control, but the lack of attention by the driver.
(Kinda reminds me that Simpson's episode where Bart and friends forged a license and went to world's fair... ';Who's driving?'; ';Cruise control, man!'; ';ARGHHHH!!!!!!'; [Car goes through corn field])
EDIT: Cansomike don't seem to understand how cruise control works. Cruise control checks RPM in the driveshaft (or whatever the engine computer says to check that is proportional to speed), and if going uphill, car slows, CC adds throttle until RPM goes back to set range. When wheels slip, RPM goes FASTER, so CC will DECREASE the throttle, not increase it to infinite as he seems to think.
People say you should not use CC in the rain because people's first panic reaction is to hit the brake pedal. When you get off the gas and hit the brakes, that sudden weight transfer COMBINED with uneven traction of the car makes the car lose control. NOT CC itself.
Boogie: it's the DRIVESHAFT RPM, not Engine RPM. DriveShaft RPM is roughly equivalent to overall speed, depending on the gear. Nowadays, CC are smart enough to do a ';kickdown'; if RPM goes too low. It doesn't prove anything one way or the other.
EVERYONE: I'm NOT ADVOCATING use of cruise control in wet conditions. Read my statement carefully. Cruise control does NOT cause loss of control of the vehicle. The DRIVER does, and s/he is ultimately responsible for the vehicle's conduct, period. I just don't like blanket statements.
No, the cruise control will not CAUSE you to lose control but if you lose traction, it will make it practically impossible to regain control in time.
why use it during a storm anyways ? when the driving conditions require you to be more alert ? i have never hard of anyone having that problem but i am sure it has happend
I say it can happen. You need to be a little more firm when conditions are wet.
no it wont cause you to lose control but the chances of you losing control are increased
Yes...
