When you go to the doctors and they take a urine sample do they typically check for drugs,or does that have to be done completely separate from this(as in by request)?
Also,what's the main reason for urine samples being taken in the first place?
They only do it if they ask. They normally do tests for drugs for employers and stuff. Urine tests measure what went through the body, they can get an idea of what you ate and what medicine you're taking, and what hormones are in your body.

STORY: My friend Tricia has direct deposit for her paycheck into her bank account. Every month she gets a statement (that tells her what she has taken out as cash, what checks she wrote and the deposits) which is mailed to her home every month. Instead of taking out money for the week she takes out $20 to $25 a day. Yesterday when the statement came Tricias mother helped Tricia reconcile her bank statement and saw that Tricia wasnt taking out for the week but taking out $20 $25 every day. Her mother said; Tricia you have to budget. You really should take out for the week. You are spending more than you make; They argued about it a little bit. Later on Tricia said; mom are you telling me not to buy the jewelry I buy; Her mother replied: no I am not saying that. I am telling you to take out for the week; She told her friends the story and her friends said: Tricia your mother is not saying she doesnt want you to buy the jewelry she just doesnt want you to take out $20 - $25 a day, she wants you to take out for the entire week. MY QUESTION: DO YOU AGREE WITH HER FRIENDS?
Yes, I agree with her friends. The mother would have said the same thing if the daughter had been buying potatoes, rare coins, or gold dust; the material doesn't matter, only that she's spending too much.

Is voodoo one of those things where you can kind of snap your fingures in a figurative way and make things happen you know munipulate yourself and others in a way. Is it worth trying out and is it dangerous and how do you get into it?
No, you can't manipulate anything by snapping. The best you could hope for is that the rituals give you a certain "luck", and things happen to go your way more often. I know of no religion that will allow you to manipulate things directly, as you describe. It's as dangerous as any other religion, there's a change you'll end up in a cult, but a small chance. If there is any real magic, it's minimal, and no danger to you. Voodoo isn't as mainstream as wicca, you'll actually have to find a practitioner in order to join. If all you want is magic power, you'll be disappointed in everything. The road to such power is long, so long you'll die of old age before you get what you want. Maybe if you devote your life to finding that power, and forget about the religions involved, you'll have the power to move objects with your mind when you're 40. You'll never be able to break someone's leg or kill them unless you live to be 200.

Yesterday the weather was horrible.It was a few degrees below zero and the wind chill was pretty high,and my district was pretty much the only one that decided not to close down.Today was much better than yesterday,and they closed.How does this work?
Probably the person who decided that you had to go to school yesterday got a bunch of angry parents on his case and wanted to make sure it didn't happen again today.

I know how many people feel about witchcraft, wicca and voodoo and those people who are truly against it I don't want to hear from you I just want the people who have experimented with it to tell me more about it in detail. Anything you can tell me is helpful to me.
Wicca is an interesting religion. It usually makes people feel good, which is the most important thing. But almost all experienced witches will admit that wicca in it's current form was made up by primarily one person, and it's extremely unlikely it's the "true religion". As a witch you will not be making things fly or setting things on fire with magic; it's mostly spiritual ritual. Instead of praying you make up a ritual. Check out:

Voodoo is very similar to Wicca, but it originates from Africa instead of Europe. Christianity has mixed with voodoo more than it has with wicca; instead of worshiping the elements, practitioners of voodoo worship gods, lead by a head god which some believe is the same as the Christian god. You won't be making voodoo dolls or zombies.
Any source that tells you how to do things that are obviously magic is most likely wrong. I believe certain magic-like things are possible, but only after years of practice; science and mind as opposed to magic and spirituality.
Either religion is fine, but I don't think either(or any) religion is the truth, although they all contain their own bits of truth and wisdom. I've always been interested in religion, and if you have any more religious questions, I'll probably have an answer.

I want to get my boyfriend a glass rose with out names engraved on a petal. Anybody know of a website to get that at?
Also, those glass blocks that have poems and such engraves into them. Where can I get them at?
Thanks.
If you want anything engraved, you take it to an engraver. Just buy the glass block/rose and take it there. Find an engraver by going to http://local.google.com and searching for:
engravers near wherever you live

I want to take still frame pictures from video files that I have on my computer. So basically, turn a frame of a video file into a picture file. Is this possible? If so, how do I do it?
Take a screenshot of it when it's at where you want it. Here's my screenshot guide:

Not the most versatile or fancy approach, but for just a few frames, it'll do fine. If it's a lot of frames try this search:

we just had a choir concert about a week ago, and i wanted to put the songs we sang in my mp3. problem is, my mom recorded our songs as videos in our camera. i have the videos uploaded in my computer, but i don't know how to put the video in my mp3. i really care about the video itself, i just want the songs. is there a way i can take the video itself out and just have the song? or maybe i can put the video in my mp3 just the way it is. i don't care if i don't see the video, i just want to hear the songs.
thanks!
download and install audacity:
http://audacity.sourceforge.net/
then press record on it. Play the movie. Audacity will record all the sounds your computer makes, including the video's audio. I'm sure there are faster ways to do this, but this is the easiest. To export as a MP3 file, instead of the default WAV file, you'll have to install the mod that's on the audacity web page. Note that it'll record *every* sound your computer makes, so if the video is long you might want to go to start>control panel>classic view>sounds and audio>sounds, and change it so there are no sounds; it would suck to have to start over because a balloon pops up saying there's an update.

once computer history is deleted is it possibe to look at it again, like for eg, if i deleted my history on wed, then on fri i wanted to look at wednesdays, can i? and how?
Not usually. History is stored in one file and when you delete it you just modify the file. It doesn't go into recycle bin, and it's almost impossible to undelete it. Try this search:

So I saved this video I made on windows movie maker. and it saves as a *.MSWMM file.. which wont let you load on to myspace or photobucket or anything. how do i get it to change to a file type that i can upload on the interner? like WAV or whatever?
Go to file>save movie file, not file>save. It will, by default, save as WMV(WAV is audio).

Can anyone help me get a serial number for Corel paint shop pro X or corel paint shop pro XI...
It would be so helpful!!
Thanks
That's illegal unless you already bought it. To do that you need to download a program called a keygen. The keygen is a small EXE that will output a valid key. Often sites that have keygens on them are full of malware. This search will find you some:
If you already have the program, don't download any .TORRENT files.

i just went out and purchased photoshop
i've had other editing programs and been really good at figuring tem out, and being able to use them.
but photoshop is either a major letdown, or I haven't figured it out yet.
Can someone help me figure stuff out? or find some tutorials? guide sites?
photoshop elements is the limited edition photoshop, it doesn't have as many features as the normal version(photoshop CS2). It's made mostly for editing pictures(fixing redeye, removing blemishes, etc), and not for actually drawing. You should have used the trial before you bought it.

can you get rid of a cavity without getting to the dentist? dentists are alot of money, and i really dont want my teeth to get drilled. well its not exactly a cavity yet, but there are like little black lines on some of my teeth in the back.. im scared! should i just use alot of mouthwash and like brush my teeth like 3 times a day? usually i forget mouth wash, and i brush my teeth like once a day. but generally my teeth arent that bad, and ive never had cavities before! i didnt even know they were.. and they dont even hurt! but the blackness seems to spread to other teeth. why is this happening? how does it start? how can i fix it??? HELP! once i even scraped a little of it off with my finger.. freaky. whats that black stuff made of anyway?
***edit:I have a suspicion that you're messing with me, but let me clarify. You should have this checked immediately if you can't brush it off in 5 minutes. Your molars will not grow back, the cavity will spread to your jaw and will cause intense, agonizing pain. It could spread so far that it kills you.
I'm not sure that's a cavity but if it is there's no way to remove the cavity and keep the tooth by yourself. The only thing you could do at home is to pull the tooth. Cavities can actually kill you, so you should have it treated. The black stuff is bits of decayed tooth, rotted by bacteria. If you can brush the black stuff completely off, it's not a cavity, just some stuff on your teeth.

I was raised agnostic, which my family is. My dad was raised a conservative catholic, but now is totally against religion and so is my mom. I was always very distant from religion & actually disliked it. Now, being a senior in highschool I've suddenly become interested. How do I go about furthering this interest and finding information about it? My family already doesn't support this and I wouldn't even know what to do if I stepped inside a church.
Religion is a very interesting subject, I don't think any of them are correct, but it seems there's just a tiny bit of truth and wisdom in all of them. read:
http://www.religioustolerance.org/
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Religions (and links on it)
Most religions fall into one of 3 categories:
-Dharmic, which is like Buddhism
-Abrahamic, which is like Christianity, and
-Pagan, like Wicca
If you know about the 3 religions I mentioned there, you'll have a good idea of what the others in it's category is like, and that will account for 99% of all religions.

Hello all,
I was wondering if anyone has an opinion on a laptop that I am considering buying from Staples.
It is a...
Compaq presario with AMD turion64
-1 GB ram
-80 GB hd
-15.4 in. widescreen
-8x dvd R/Rw superMulti dual-layer drive
-5 in 1 memory card reader
-quickplay
All for $600 after rebates.
I plan on mostly using it for school (Im 16) and leisure. nothing too serious.
I would greatly appreciate any comments that you have!
Thanks!
that's good for school usage, it'll be able to do everything but play 3d games. Something you'll want to note is that it's 64-bit, so it(probably) comes with windows XP pro 64, and a small amount of programs won't work with it.

no, it's not illegal to date. Also, it is illegal for a 18 year old to have sex with a 17 year old(or 16 have sex with 15, depending on where you live).

are apple computers less prone to viruses or is that a myth?
They aren't more secure, but you're much less likely to get a virus because hardly anyone makes viruses for apple computers.

so i wrote a story and i'm really interested to get some responses, if you don't like it don't try to be nice, just tell me.
It's supposed to be from the point of view of a seven year old girl, that's why it doesn't sound like the way you or i would think, i am just trying to get a child's point of view of a difficult situation.
also, please tell me if you understand the symbolism of the lion and the polar bear, if nobody understands it i will change it.
thanks! so muchhhh

***edit:I thought it was perfect
Very nice. It's professional-grade, and I'm not saying that to be kind. I do think you underestimated the intelligence of a 7 year old. And I don't understand the symbolism.
