i ' m not going to press charges . . i mean . . . aside from initially saying no , i basically just laid there hating myself . there have been times that i ' ve pushed him off me and fought him off . . but this morning . . . idk . . i didn ' t have the energy for the resulting drama . . . ( which i got anyway when he confronted me about all this in the car ) i just want my life back . i used to have self esteem . i used to feel confident and i was able to assert myself . . . and somehow in just three months i feel ugly and resent myself and weak , and i barely have a fraction of the confidence i used to . idk how this happened so fast .

lgbt are not prohibited from attending catholic schools , nor is there any institutional forms of discrimination against them in the system . except the part where they ' re constantly told that the sexual urges they have are sinful and that it would be a sin ( in fact , quite possibly a mortal sin ) to ever , ever act on them . yeah , that ' s healthy .

i never claimed they did ( felt pain ) and also i never said we need to consume meat i only said we need to consume organisms to survive . but eating meat is a part of the cycle of life why should be exclude ourselves from it . you can choose to eat whatever you wish as that is the point of being human but there is nothing wrong with having meat and their pain ( at least to me ) is not enough defense for them . especially since you cannot prove their self understanding to even decipher pain beyond the physical ( ie things like empathy , beyond instincts / will to live ) . if a lion can get a gazelle i see no reason why i can ' t .

those studies only describe a very small part of what is " attraction . " but we ' re still unclear as to exactly how much of our behavior is dictated by our biology since there is also a great deal of evidence ( and studies ) to suggest that most of these behaviors are socially reinforced . also historically beauty standards have shifted every couple hundred years or less , as we can tell by depictions of people in art and descriptions in historical record . but honestly making any argument about primitive drives and blah blah is all nonsense because we do not know how primitive humans behaved and acted . it is almost impossible to know for sure , and we can ' t observe it directly , so anything that resembles an argument being made from that perspective is educated guesswork at best .

i once babysat for these two little asshole girls who were constantly at each other ' s throats . once , unbeknownst to me , the older one threw one of those life - sized dolls that ' s made to look like the kid out her bedroom window because she was mad at her sister . it landed on the eves . some time later i answer the door to the cops and the fire department . they thought it was a real kid . the older girl then tells the cops that i murdered her sister by tossing her out the window . i stopped babysitting there .

i became a member a few months ago and have used it a couple times . it ' s convenient for if you ' re traveling short distances in short time increments . keep in mind that zipcar gives you 180 miles per 24 hours . for every hour after , they give you an extra 20 miles . for instance , i traveled to purdue university , and then on to illinois state university and back to champaign all in one day . that trip was about 290 miles total so what i did was reserve the car for a full day , and then added an extra 7 hours to the reservation so that i could get those miles . ( in my case , this was considered a business trip and i was reimbursed . ) it ' s convenient to have a zipcar available , but for your needs and use , it doesn ' t seem like it ' d make much financial sense .

worst feeling is when you go underwater in a snow biome . you ' re running out of air . you swim upward , looking for the hole you made in the ice . but it isn ' t there anymore . you try breaking the ice , but you ' re panicking so badly you forget to use your pick . you start trying to use your hand , but it breaks so much more slowly underwater and uses up so much of your air . then you start getting the knockback as you start to drown , which stops you from breaking blocks , even with a pick . nothing to do but sit there , die , and hope you can manage to get back underwater safely to get your stuff back .

nope . i have female friends , but it ' s all platonic . the text that bothered her ( and note that i haven ' t cared if she looked through my phone in the past and i don ' t know if this was the first time ) , was a conversation i had with a female friend this past monday where i complained about my gf and some other things ( i think i was just moody ) and this good female friend basically told me to check myself . and i then felt remorse ( and said so in the text ) and the negative feeling passed . that ' s what she read . and we were having a lovely evening too , prior to that . then came the crying ( by her ) and the yelling ( by me ) . if you go looking for trouble , you will usually find it .

i ' m not saying they haven ' t figured it out , but i don ' t think there is such a thing as negative absolute pressure in a vacuum : pressure is not a " thing " , its a phenomenon of matter and gravity . here on earth we have roughly 14 pounds of matter ( air molecules ) being accelerated by gravity against each square inch of surface . go under water and the gravity stays roughly the same , but " pressure " increases because you have the mass of the air , plus the mass of the water ( obviously much heavier considering just 10m down in water doubles the pressure felt ) . so on the moon , you would only have 1 of 2 ingredients for pressure : gravity . its an effective vacuum with no mass to accelerate to cause pressure .

another idea would be to try to go for a student line of credit . the one i have from td , i get $ 10k a year , adn i ' ll have to pay it all back . unfortunately there is a small amount i need to pay every month for interest , but it ' s not too bad , and you can take it out of the student line of credit . your parents would have to cosign , so there ' s a bit of work ( going to the bank to sign documents on two occasions ) to get it .

i always start people off with a one - shot in the campaign world and system we ' ll be using , but with premade characters that only last for that one - shot ( and later become npcs ) . this introduces them to the system and the world in a low - pressure way , so that when they build their characters they have some idea what they ' re getting into . they ' re not just picking out random powers and a random town on the map - they ' ve heard from the innkeeper that the greatest metalworkers live in the north , so they ' re playing a northerner who ' s focused on exotic weapons . their one - shot premade had a nifty feat they like , so they ' re maxing out that feat tree while avoiding the abilities that didn ' t seem as helpful .

as far as octaves go , your 4 finger has a little more reach than your 5 . when i play the moonlight sonata there are a lot of octave jumps where i ' ll switch between 4 and 5 in the top voice . for a run of octaves i just do the 1 and 5 thing , but you could try doing 1 and 4 . when i injured my hand a few years ago , [ this ] ( http : / / www . amazon . com / rational - principles - piano - technique / dp / b002wkoxnq / ref = sr _ 1 _ 3 ? s = books & ie = utf8 & qid = 1337228464 & sr = 1 - 3 ) book helped me get back into shape ( i damaged my 4 and 5 fingers in my right hand , couldn ' t play well for months ) .

strictly speaking , technically you are correct . however , movement is a percentage game . and it depends on the wood . your aprons are probably only 4 " or so , so it ' s movement can rather safely ignored here . should it actually life the top a bit , the overhang of your top should hide any gaps . now your table top , that ' s potentially different . your 20 " square top will move a lot , probably up to a 1 / 8 " ( again , depending on the wood . ) should you want wide panels for the side , that ' s when you switch to frame and panel construction . the frame is made from narrower pieces , 2 " - 4 " , connected via mortise and tenon , pocket screws , etc , and the panel is set in a groove . the trick is the panel floats in the groove . it is not glued and is allowed to safely expand and contract in the groove , so size it appropriately .

so this is completely false . for one he ' s asking for a credit card , what you ' re describing is a charge card . amex offers both but their actual credit cards are more popular and work the same way traditional credit cards work . also charge cards don ' t really build credit as quickly as a revolving credit card will . lastly one has to have really good credit to get an amex charge card and you will pay an annual fee , all things that make them terrible choices for op .

don ' t be afraid of apologetics . their arguments usually come down to an argument from ignorance , they cannot imagine something else other than their conclusion being true so they substitute your conclusion with their own . no one knows the mechanism that created the universe , and no one knows if it ' s random or not . usually apologetics argues against the idea of randomness generating our universe , but everything is not random . certain things have certain probabilities , there are occurrences more likely than others . if there is a mechanism that created the universe , no one can really guarantee me it ' s something i can call a god , because to me a god has a consciousness and a will , whether or not it uses it . there is absolutely nothing suggesting that any one religion is correct , and we have many of them competing for dominance . tying one religion to the abstract concepts of gods through arguments that , frankly , primarily insult atheists and blame their " lack of thinking " on psychological phenomena , suggesting that no intelligent person can arrive at the atheism conclusion , is bankrupt of any credulity . moreover , the site says stuff like that mutations have been proven to be harmful , therefore natural selection cannot be true , is completely ridiculous . if i mutated into bullet - proof skin , that would be pretty fucking useful if i do say so myself . it ' s pretty long to debunk all of this , but just because an experiment fails , or the information isn ' t completely congruous , it does not mean the opposite conclusion has been reached . if i fail to prove atheism , this does not mean theism is true , because another possibility is that we all live in the matrix and we were put here by our robot masters . " no successful experiment of abiogenesis exists , therefore god must ' ve made life . " - what an apologetic would say because it ' s so obviously fine - tuned - every apologetic if it ' s so obviously fine - tuned and the god conclusion is so obvious then you must be able to gather your own solid data from experimentation with the express purpose of proving god true . right ?

i equate liberalism with individualism and populism with collectivism . forcing individuals to not discriminate against others with their businesses for example , is to disregard the individual ' s will and preference , and to force on him , the popular will of the majority . my problem is how the modern definition of " liberalism " seems to be the direct opposite of what is now referred to as classical liberalism . the etymology of the word ( liber = free , unrestricted ) in no way supports the modern definition . also , economic liberalism and social liberalism are oppositional ideologies . on the contrary , it is the ' liberalism ' portion of both terms that give them meaning . they cannot oppose each other . liberalism is the freedom of the individual to make his / her own decisions regardless of the popular sentiment . populism to me seemed the best opposite to that .

the trick is not to take " wild " animals out of the wild . this kitten is bred to be a domesticated animal , and you are hardly doing the " wild " or the kitten a disservice by providing it a domestic home , rather than either dying , or killing native wild birds .

i think it goes back to the principle of the issue . it ' s not the problem that they ' re looking for things which they won ' t find , but the fact that they ' re looking in the first place . they should trust you , and by looking through your messages , they ' re showing that they don ' t trust you . relationships are built on trust , so by doing this , they ' ve begun a corrosion of the relationship . an example of this not being okay is with the government spying on its citizens . i know i ' m not a terrorist or anything , so the government wouldn ' t find anything if they went through my messages . but the fact that they would do such a thing is a massive invasion of my property , whether intellectual or otherwise .

for someone living in texas i like to think so . me an my roommate smoke more than anyone else i ' ve personally met . but as i said in a previous post , most of the stuff you get down here isn ' t on par with the quality up north or in the " legal " states . that and i lived with a dealer , and have / had quite a few as friends so i ' ve seen some crazy shit in the last few years . good times . also good to see fellow metal heads smokin the trees . ( metal is also not so popular down here ) . i love texas but i ' m starting to think i ' m in the wrong state .

wait really ? so what if a couple gets married with only 2 or 3 witnesses , are they rendered islamically immune without ending up ostracized ? : d no the quran asks for no witnesses for nikah . it asks for witnesses for finalizing talaq but not for nikah .

and i recently figured out that a ( possible ) question to fit that answer is what is the sum of paradise ? there are a total of 21 dots on a die , right . one dot for the one , two for the two and so on . . . 21 . so the sum total of a ' pair - o - dice ' is 42 . http : / / hongkonghonky . blogspot . com / 2012 / 04 / answer - to - ultimate - question - of - life . html

if there are any undercover jws , they wouldn ' t comment at all , lol . afaik , they won ' t visit " apostate " websites at all . i mean , a person would have to have really bad cognitive dissonance if he read this site and it ' s comments everyday and still believed ! lol also , things like these can ' t be evidence for a judicial committee , as it is too complicated . there are many things that can come into play . there is no way to know the person you accuse is the one who actually wrote it , etc . my dad was an elder , so i know .

i read an article from gmuhoops that was on this subject , and i agree with it . not only do you have to factor in mason and its abilities , but also the state of the current conference and the other conference in question . i dont think we would be able to keep up with the top four of the a10 . now that odu and vcu have left the caa , we can potentially be the regular season / playoff champion as long as we stay where we are . it might be a cop out , but at least we would get a bid to the tournament . also , there are rumors of the big east imploding and splitting into other conferences . one of those conferences might be basketball focused and grab someone from the a10 , which would loose some of its credibility . mason is due for a 5 million dollar pay day from the final four run from 06 ( crazy how we are still getting money for that ) . if we left , we wouldnt get the money , but since vcu is leaving , they dont get the money from their own final four run last year . i like the decision . gives us time to determine what to do with the future of the program . gmuhoops article : http : / / georgemasonbasketball . blogspot . com / 2012 / 05 / why - george - mason - staying - and - vcu . html article on big east : http : / / www . boston . com / sports / colleges / football / articles / 2012 / 05 / 08 / big _ east _ split _ could _ be _ happening _ sooner _ rather _ than _ later /

fuck twilight , fuck girly - girl magazines and fuck movies about helpless princesses in need of a prince . it ' s unfair to say all that , i think . although female - orientated magazines are pretty fucked up , there ' s something to say about the other two . some girls do feel helpless for whatever reason , and need rescuing ( it ' s like when someone is depressed , getting better needs to come from them but they still need help to do so ) . as for twilight - i read a really good blog post about this and why it ' s so popular , but i can ' t find it : ( . basically about not all women being strong individual women who don ' t need no man , and people can really relate to bella because that ' s what they ' re like deep down ( so badly explained , sorry )

some , not all . there are games today with flighty controls ( i . e . any game that thought it was being innovative but really just had gimmicky controls , like a fair share of wii games ) . i think a lot of old games are popular because they have some riveting stories . scumm games , for starters . and there are old games that you would still enjoy , i bet .

which makes them significantly more likely than assumed effects he decided to pull from a hat . when you post in a thread about a study , you don ' t just pretend the study doesn ' t exist / isn ' t as valid as shit you made up the article provided reasonable grounds for the existence of harmful effects aside from sterility , stating " some of the man - made chemicals can interfere with communication systems within the body and potentially have adverse effects on health and wellbeing " , but that hardly matters anyhow . you presented the sterility effects as a " solution " to a problem , and gaakhead pointed out that you weren ' t considering the problem ' s greater complexities or the possible ramifications of your " solution " . edit : also , i don ' t think that other guy ever explained how exactly starving children are a requirement for the lifestyles of the west . he very clearly described how third world children , such as those in india , china and haiti , subsidize the lifestyles in the west by providing inexpensive labour and services , which wouldn ' t be possible if their value as workers wasn ' t extremely low due to overpopulation . note that he clarified early in your discussion " my comment was not in reference to children who " never produce anything and die at an early age " , although where this occurs it is usually a result of armed conflict or natural disasters rather than solely the result of overpopulation . " if you ' re not talking about these types of countries , then what countries are you talking about ? it was asked of you before , and while you didn ' t answer it ' s worth asking again : which countries do you specifically believe require reductions in their population to resolve the problems you are referencing ? probably didn ' t help that he later claimed he never said that but tried to argue it anyway and decided that now bpa doesn ' t do anything at all apparently , but is still obviously a dangerous risk . are you possibly confusing this thread with another ? the article , gaakhead , and myself never mentioned bpa , and i don ' t think gaakhead ever specifically claimed to have not said something , let alone something he had previously said . you mentioned bpa when you said " i ' d rather drink some bpa than end up with a bunch of starving , diseased 3rd world children without adequate food , water or medical care , " but that ' s not really a relevant reference to bpa . this is the most ridiculous non - argument i ' ve ever heard , and here you two are agreeing with it . gaakhead was disputing the merits of your proposed " solution " , and your understanding of the problem . i ' m not sure what you thought the argument was about .

as far as what you have described , i believe i can do that first one you mentioned . it feels like i ' m clenching and maybe sometimes i ' ll move my tongue as i do it , but as far as what you described goes , this seems pretty similar . i don ' t do it very often . sometimes .

not worth it . i would at least try and save up some cash by getting a minimum wage job ( maybe sell some belongings ? ) and crash on friend ' s couches for a while , then leave . though it sounds like a great idea to just leave all the problems and explore something new , it ' s a bit too risky with $ 20 and no source of connections for help . do your research and prepare for it if anything .

from what i ' ve heard , it describes most taco bells pretty well . . . honestly , the job itself wasn ' t unbearable ; it was just the way that all the stupid people made it . not the customers , weirdly ( i ' d say 95 % of the time people were super polite and understanding ) , but the jackoff managers and supremely incompetent workers they hired . if it weren ' t for that , and if people did their damned jobs , it would have probably been okay .

you don ' t deserve to be with someone who says those things to you though , you need to see that it ' s awful that no matter how great he ' s been in the past , that the way he called you a ' fucking asshole ' and continuously said ' fuck you ' is crossing the line . it sounds like you guys had a good beginning but that he ' s changed and is no longer the person he was before . though , maybe if he seeks help for his depression and starts to see his life more positively again , he will act more like he has in the past . i wouldn ' t wait around to see though , i usually think relationship breaks are a bit of a problem , but it sounds like that may really be what you need .

thanks for the reply . i am applying for any kind of internship i can find available in publishing companies , but i did not think of entering the industry through marketing or graphic design . sounds like a good idea . if you don ' t mind me asking , what kind of education do you have ? did you study english lit or anything related to writing or publishing at all to get into the industry ? how were you able to land the job if you didn ' t have publishing experience ? i was not aware that publishing paid very poorly . . . i ' m not sure exactly what it is i want to get into yet , but there are areas i ' d like to explore and like i said , hopefully illustrate for books one day . do you know what jobs in the industry are on the higher and lower end of the spectrum in terms of pay ? thanks for the input !
