Hello
I don't understand why both Jews AND Christians see Jews as the chosen people? I can guess why Jews do, I mean, who wouldn't want to be from a chosen people, but why christians? (link)
|
Hello,
The reason that Christians and Jews believe the Jews are the "Chosen People" is because of what God has said.
"I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for the salvation of everyone who believes : First of the Jew, then for the Gentile." -Romans 1:16 NIV
God saved Jews and Gentiles (anyone who isn't a Jew) alike, through His Son's dying on the cross for our sins. He's forgiven Jews and Gentiles alike. BUT, because Jesus was a Jew, the Jews are the Chosen People. Yes, God loves Gentiles just the same, but if you lay seige to the Chosen People, in any form : persecution, murder, rape, slaughter, theft etc. because they're a Jew, you are messing with the WRONG GOD! If you mess with God's chosen people, He will seek revenge. Yes, this goes both for the Jew and the Gentile, but Jews especially; and those who were martyered for their faith.
The reason Bible-believing Christians see the Jews as the chosen people is because the Bible says they are.
I hope this answered your question, if you have any others, feel free to ask.

Hey, did you know that even though your Jasc Animation Shop 3 trail ran out, you can set your computer back and still use it? As long as you didn't delete it completely, you can set the computers' clock back to when you first downloaded it. Or you could use:
Animagic (http://www.animagic.net/)

Hello all. on my column, the part where i wrote stuff about myself is cut off. it only shows the first half, at least on my computer. has anyone else experienced this or knows what to do about it? thanks!!
oh, and heres my site: http://www.advicenators.com/column.php?u=lovemenow_kissmelater (link)
|
Hello, lovemenow_kissmelater. Yes, I have had the same thing happen to me, though not on my profile. I've had that happen in questions, though if you click the link for the question all of it shows up. It doesn't really bother me, considering that the person who asked the question can read everything I wrote, so that is okay with me.
Your column is pretty... but I don't see everything you wrote. Go back into your profile settings and re-type what you had there. I thought perhaps it was an improperly used HTML code, or a HTML code that hadn't been closed, but I looked at the source of your page, and I don't see anything. If re-typing the stuff you had there doesn't work, go here and tell DangerNerd about it.

when i go to sleep and have my period sometimes blood stains through my pants what can i do to prevent that? (link)
|
You probably have a heavy flow, and it's not something you can really "fix." But, to help save your shorts, try using a tampon and a pad with wings, and wear some old shorts / pants to bed. If you're afraid to use a tampon, use a really thick pad with wings and old shorts, and perhaps put an old towel on your bed, and make sure you pull the comforter off the bed and use old sheets.

What does socialite mean??? xoxo thx! (link)
|
Socialite :
A socialite is a person (male or female, but more often used of a woman) of social prominence, considered to be an influential social figure. Their impact derives not so much from their artistic realisations (then they would be known primarily as author or performer, etc...) or from their official social stature (then they would be called politician, industrialist, etc...), as from their less-tangible ability to dominate the social scene and use personal charisma to achieve prominence.

okay so tomorow im going to this girls house, we have liked eachother for 3 yrs and are going out, i am gonna get there at like early in the morning while she is still asleep, i was going to make her breakfast in bed but she doesnt realy eat breakfast cuz she has a weak stomach. I really want to do something sweet so she wakes up to a wonderful surprise and realizes how much i care about her, any great suggestions would be nice...thank you! (link)
|
Aww! That is so sweet! :)
Go to her house, take her ONE beautiful red rose, tie a ribbon around it (with a card/poem/letter attatched) and give it to her. I promise you, she'll go crazy. And that's a good thing. You can find a sweet card in a store or find a poem online; or, perhaps you're a poet yourself and you can write her a poem. :) That's really sweet... anyway. Rose. :) Or... You could get her an ADORABLE teddy bear that says "I love you" or something. My dad got my mom a bear that had a recorder in its ear. He recorded himself saying "I love you" and gave it to her for Valentines day. It was really sweet. There's also bears that have little heart pillows that say "I love you," or you could just get a bear and put a red rose in its arms and give it to her...

is it true that lice is attracted to clean heads?
thanks (link)
|
Unfortunately, yes. Lice are attracted to clean, well-kept heads. If your hair is clean, tangle-free and smooth, it is more likely to attract lice than hair that is rough, tangled and not as clean. Lice prefer clean hair / heads because it's easier to move around when the hair is clean, silky, soft etc.
Here's a good read on it :

how much is it usually to get your nipples pierced?... (link)

I searched it on google. Most places do it around $45 - $50 for each one. Some are a little higher, some a little lower. It's gonna hurt. I mean, D'OH! It's gonna hurt. But, if that's what you want, more power to you. Go somewhere clean and safe, so that you don't get an infection from unsanitary equipment. (That would hurt even more!) Several places said that you'll probably bleed alot.. just as a warning. Don't be afraid to cry, though. Just kidding with you... unless you want to cry. Because then you can. :-)
Knock yourself out... not literally.

I do believe that is "Ohio Is For Lovers" by Hawthorne Heights. Here are the lyrics :
Hey there,
I know it's hard to feel like I don't care at all.
Where you are and how you feel.
With these lights off as these wheels
keep rolling on and on. (and on and on and on...)
Slow things down or speed them up.
Not enough or way too much. (and on and on and on...)
How are you when I'm gone?
[Chorus:]
And I can't make it on my own.
(And I can't make it on my own.)
Because my heart is in Ohio.
So cut my wrists and black my eyes.
(Cut my wrists and black my eyes)
So I can fall asleep tonight, or die.
Because you kill me.
You know you do, you kill me well.
You like it too, and I can tell.
You never stop until my final breath is gone.
Spare me just three last words.
"I love you" is all she heard.
I'll wait for you, but I can't wait forever.
[x2]
[Chorus:]
And I can't make it on my own.
(And I can't make it on my own.)
Because my heart is in Ohio.
So cut my wrists and black my eyes.
(Cut my wrists and black my eyes)
So I can fall asleep tonight, or die.
Because you kill me.
You know you do, you kill me well.
You like it too, and I can tell.
You never stop until my final breath is gone.
You know you do, you kill me well.
You like it too, and I can tell.
You never stop until my final breath is gone.
(YOU...KILL...ME...WELL!!!)
So cut my wrists and black my eyes.
My final breath is gone
So I can fall asleep tonight
[Chorus:]
And I can't make it on my own.
(And I can't make it on my own.)
Because my heart is in Ohio.
So cut my wrists and black my eyes.
(Cut my wrists and black my eyes)
So I can fall asleep tonight, or die.
Because you kill me.
You know you do, you kill me well.
You like it too, and I can tell.
You never stop until my final breath is gone.
You know you do, you kill me well.
You like it too, and I can tell.
You never stop until my final breath is gone.

Hmm.. ADT! And a bodyguard... or a pitbull.. or plastic surgery... Oh! How about you go to Party City and buy a witches' mask? You might fool them. Girls are so stupid. Yeah, that's right. I just dissed myself. They won't notice that you look so ... fake. I mean, half of them might have fake boobs or something. And a pitbull? Aww, I just have a soft spot for them... at least the deaf ones... but that might not make a great guard dog... they're really sweet, they just look a little scary. Or you could get a cat. My cat is so... demonic. She tore up my sister's cat's face... yeah, it looks pretty nasty. But, oh, she loves me. Boy is she mean though. She's beaten up my Black Lab and my Golden Retriever. When she was a kitten, she'd chase my Chow around the yard! She popped my 1,200 pound mare in the face, and got away with it too! So you could get a cat. Or you could get a Shire. Ohh, buddy. They are so magnificent. Though, that might attract girls more... because everyone loves a big, strong, muscular horse. And I've never met a mean Shire. They're just really tall. (and weigh like 3,300 pounds!) But ADT might help some. Or any other alarm system. Or you could get married. Then your wife could beat them away.

I have looked around a bit myself for the following question, and I will only take serious answers.
I would like to ask for links to text documents regarding revelation, and all the signs pointing to the return of Christ, and the end of the world, so to speak. I need info on the Anti-Christ. Some people believe he is already born. Some believed it was Hitler. Some believe G. W. Bush. I want opinions on this also.
For example When Israel becomes a state of its own, after that generation passes, Christ will return.
This is not exact quote....Obviously. However I need info of this nature. This is one of those signs. I need as much text and documents as I can possibly get.
Second, I need as many opinions from every perspective as possible. I.E. Atheists (I don't want "God doesn't exist. Don't worry about it.") I want reasons and such as to why you don't think it exists. All Beliefs are wanted here.
From what I have gathered, the Bible states after all signs are completed, Christ will return, and people get into Heaven, and the likes of this nature. The anti-Christ will be born. Do his 7 year business. Things will fall apart. Hell will be on earth, and so on. Most of the signs are done, and the end is near. What do you all think about this? I want as detailed answers as I can possibly get. I myself think the end could very well be soon. If you want to talk with me on this outside of advicenators, you can do so. Ask for my aim, or check my column. Solaris.
I did not go into too much detail, and I apologise. I want all of you to think about it really hard before you answer. Also...try to make the answers organized, and spelled correctly. Its easier on the eyes.
Thank you.

Hello, Solaris.
I am a devout Christian. I believe with all of my heart that the Word of God - the Bible - is 100% true. I believe the book of Revelation is a fascinating, intricate, beautiful work. Now you know where I stand. Oh, all Scripture used is taken from the NIV (New International Version) of the Holy Bible.
If you believe in God, and His Word, you will know from this verse that the Revelations are true.
"The revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave him to show His servants what must soon take place. He made it known by sending His angel to His servant John, who testifies to everything he saw--that ism the Word of God and the testimony of Jesus Christ. Blessed is the one who reads the words of this prophecy, and blessed are those who hear it and take to heart what is written in it, because the time is near." -- Revelation 1:1-3
Basically, as you know, that is saying that God sent an angel to tell John what was going to happen. There are several instances of this happening; one of the most famous is Mary's encounter with Gabriel. (Matthew 1:18, Luke 1:26-27) John was on the island of Patmos, and he was in the Spirit of God, on the Sabbath, when God reveled this to him. John was commanded to write what he saw, thus we have Revelation. (Revelation 1:19) According to Revelation 5, Christ ALONE is worthy to break the seven seals.
The First Seal : Antichrist : "I watched as the Lamb opened the first of the seven seals. Then I heard one of the four living creatures say in a voice like thunder, "Come!" I looked, and there before me was a white horse! Its rider held a bow, and he was given a crown, and he rode out as a conqueror bent on conquest." - Revelation 6:1-2 -- This signifies the coming of the Antichrist. He is like a warrior. He will be charming, influential, and comes from the area around Germany and such. He will seem to be kind, compassionate, and will supposedly want "world peace." Many, many will fall into this trap. The Antichrist will die, and then be resurrected, at which point Satan himself will inhabit the body. The Antichrist begins as a 'normal' man who is under Satan's influence, but once the man dies, Satan will live in the body. More on this later.
The Second Seal : War : "When the Lamb opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature say, "Come!" Then another horse came out, a fiery red one. Its rider was given power to take peace from the earth and to make men slay each other. To him was given a large sword." - Revelation 6:3-4 - Though the horse and rider are simply analogies, the war will be very real. Men will have no value for human life. Wait⦠men have no value for human life now. Take abortions for example. When someone says that abortion is murder, hundreds of people will say, "Oh, it's just a fetus. It's not a 'real' baby until it's born." What a lie! It is a baby from the moment of conception on. What about the terrorists? They have no value for human lives. Or bombers, or suicidal killings, or serial killers. Already we have no value. Imagine how awful it will soon be.
The Third Seal : Famine : "When the Lamb opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, "Come!" I looked, and there before me was a black horse! Its rider was holding a pair of scales in his hand. Then I heard what sounded like a voice among the four living creatures, saying, "A quart of wheat for a day's wages, and three quarts of barley for a day's wages, and do not damage the oil and the wine!" - Revelation 6:5-6 - In these days, food will be scarce for believers. If you are a Christian, you will not be able to buy or sell anything without the Mark of the Beast. (more on that later) This mark will probably come in form of a small tattoo on the hand or forehead and a small computer chip inserted just below the skin on the hand. People without the mark will not be allowed to buy or sell anything. Though the tattoo can be foraged, the computer chip cannot. Hundreds of believers will starve for lack of food because, if you take the mark of the beast, you've sold your soul to the Devil.
The Fourth Seal : Death : "When the Lamb opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature say, "Come!" I looked, and there before me was a pale horse! Its rider was named Death, and Hades was following close behind him. They were given power over a fourth of the earth to kill by sword, famine and plague, and by the wild beasts of the earth." - Revelation 6:7-8 - there will be wars which will kill thousands of men, women and children. Famines and plagues will wipe out thousands more, and perhaps thousands of animals will be rabid or possessed? I don't fully understand that, sorry.
The Fifth Seal : Martyred Remnant : "When He opened the fifth seal, I saw under the alter of the souls of those who had been slain because of the Word of God and the testimony they had maintained. They called out in a loud voice, "How long, Sovereign Lord, holy and true, until you judge the inhabitants of the earth and avenge our blood? Then each of them was given a white robe, and they were told to wait a little longer, until the number of their fellow servants and brothers who were to be killed as they had been was completed." - Revelation 6:9-11 - Those who have been martyred for their faith will rise up and cry out to the Lord. They will be honored with white and then they will wait for their brothers to be slain. (what a thing to wait for.) This, too, is a little confusing to me. :-\
The Sixth Seal : Anarchy : "I watched as He opened the sixth seal. There was a great earthquake. The sun turned black like sackcloth made of goat hair, the whole moon turned blood red, and the stars in the sky fell to earth, as late figs drop from a fig tree when shaken by a strong wind. The sky receded like a scroll, rolling up, and every mountain and island was removed from its place. Then the kings of the earth, the princes, the generals, the rich, the mighty, and every slave and every free man hid in caves and among the rocks of the mountains. They called to the mountains and the rocks, "Fall on us and hide us from the face of Him who sits on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb! For the great day of their wrath has come, and who can stand?" - Revelation 6:12-17 - All those who are not believers will attempt to hide from the wrath of God, but who can hide from Him who made the hiding places? These men know they are unworthy and sinful, but it is too late for them. They have sealed their fate. Everything will be chaos and in a state of unlawfulness. No man can stand against Him.
We'll get to the seventh seal later...
"After this I saw four angels standing at the four corners of the earth, holding back the four winds of the earth to prevent any wind from blowing on the land or on the sea or on any tree. Then I saw another angel coming up from the east, having the seal of the living God. He called out in a loud voice to the four angels who had been given power to harm the land and sea : "Do not harm the land or the sea or the trees until we put a seal on the foreheads of the servants of our God." - Revelation 7:1-3 - There are these angels who will be able to cause harm to the earth, sea, and growing things. Another angel tells them not to harm anything until the followers of God have been sealed. I believe this seal can only be seen by fellow believers. I don't know what the seal will look like. Perhaps it will be a cross on the forehead, placed there by God. Or it could be a small Hebrew word, or name of God. I do not know. But believers will be sealed. Once you have the seal of God, you are destined for Heaven when you die. Or, if you don't die, you'll live in heaven when Jesus comes back.
Then we come to the 144,000 Jews from Israel. There will be 12,000 from each tribe : Judah, Reuben, Gad, Asher, Naphtali, Manasseh, Simeon, Levi, Issachar, Zebulun, Joseph, and Benjamin. (Revelation 7:4-8) Basically, there will be 12,000 Jews from each of the above listed tribes (from the Old Testament) that put their faith in Christ and are sealed.
"After this I looked and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people, and language, standing before the throne and in front of the Lamb. They were wearing white robes and were holding palm branches in their hands. And they cried out in aloud voice "
"Salvation belongs to our God, who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb." All the angels were standing around the throne and around the elders and the four living creatures. They fell down on their faces before the throne and worshiped God, saying : "Amen! Praise and glory and wisdom and thanks and honor be to our God forever and ever. Amen!" Then one of the elders asked me, "These in white robes--who are they, and where did they come from?" I answered, "Sir, you know." And he said, "These are they who have come out of the great tribulation; they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. Therefore, ' " they are before the throne of God and serve Him day and night in His temple; and He who sits on the throne will spread His tent over them. Never again will they hunger; never again will they thirst. The sun will not beat upon them, nor any scorching heat. For the Lamb at the center of the throne will be their shepherd; He will lead them to springs of living water. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes" ' " - Revelation 7:9-17 - I believe this is the remainder of those who survived the Tribulation or died during it. They are followers, brethren. They were starved, tortured, and persecuted. Never again will they be hungry or thirsty, and when they cry, God will be there to wipe the tears from their eyes.
The Seventh Seal : Composed Of Seven Trumpets : "When He opened the seventh seal, there was silence in Heaven for about half and hour." - Revelation 8:1 - I'm not quite sure what the silence stands for, perhaps mourning?
The Seven Trumpet Judgments : Christ as High Priest : " And I saw the seven angels who stand before God, and to them were given seven trumpets. " - Revelation 8:2 - There are seven angels, seven trumpets. Makes sense. Revelation 8:3-5 tells of the angels burning incense as an offering to God. "Then the seven angels who had the seven trumpets prepared to sound them." - Revelation 8:6 - The angels got ready to sound their trumpets.
The First Trumpet : Hail and Fire : "The first angel sounded his trumpet, and there came hail and fire mixed with blood, and it was hurled down upon the earth. A third of the earth was burned up, a third of the trees were burned up, and all the green grass was burned up." -- Revelation 8:7 - Perhaps this is scorching heat which will cause things to spontaneously combust? Or perhaps this is in the literal sense, and hail and fire will be hurled towards Earth. That alone would be extremely frightening, how could someone go through something like this and NOT put their faith in God?
The Second Trumpet : Blood Water : "The second angel sounded his trumpet, and something like a huge mountain, all ablaze, was thrown into the sea. A third of the sea turned into blood, a third of the living creatures in the sea died, and a third of the ships were destroyed." - Revelation 8:8-9. I believe that the huge mountain is an analogy, but one third of the sea really will turn into blood, one third of the sea creatures will die, and one third of the ships in the sea will be destroyed.
The Third Trumpet : Bitter Water : "The third angel sounded his trumpet, and a great star, blazing like a torch, fell from the sky on a third of the rivers and on the springs of water--the name of the star is Wormwood. A third of the waters turned bitter, and a great many people died from the waters that had become bitter." -- Revelation 8:10-11 -- Basically, if taken in the literal sense, a great comet (star) will fall from the sky, and one third of the fresh waters will turn bitter, and a lot of people will die from the bitterness. The star could also be an analogy, and it simply means that one-third of the fresh water will turn bitter.
The Fourth Trumpet : Lost Light : "The fourth angel sounded his trumpet, and a third of the sun was struck, a third of the moon, and a third of the stars, so that a third of them turned dark. A third of the day was without light, and also a third of the night. As I watched, I heard an eagle that was flying in midair call out in a loud voice : "Woe! Woe! Woe to the inhabitants of the earth, because of the trumpet blasts about to be sounded by the other three angels!" " - Revelation 8:12-13 - So one third of everything in the sky is going to be blacked out, we'll lose one third of daylight, and one third of the night. The eagle calls out, warning the earth of what is to come, but only vaguely. I'm not sure if an eagle will actually call out, or if this is an analogy.
The Fifth Trumpet : Stinging Locusts : "The fifth angel sounded his trumpet, and I saw a star that had fallen from the sky to the earth. The star was given the key to the shaft of the Abyss. When he opened the Abyss, smoke rose from it like the smoke from a gigantic furnace. The sun and sky were darkened by the smoke from the abyss. And out of the smoke locusts came down upon the earth and were given power like that of scorpions of the earth. They were told not to harm the grass of the earth or any plant or tree, but only those people who did not have the seal of God on their foreheads. They were not given power to kill them, but only to torture them for five months. And the agony they suffered was like that of the sting of a scorpion when it strikes a man. During those days men will seek death, but will not find it; they will long to die, but death will elude them. The locusts looked like horses prepared for battle. On their heads they wore something like crowns of gold, and their faces resembled human faces. Their hair was like women's hair and their teeth were like lions' teeth. They had breastplates like breastplates of iron, and the sound of their wings was like the thundering of many horses and chariots rushing into battle. They had tails and stings like scorpions, and in their tails they had power to torment people for five months. They had as king over them the angel of the Abyss, whose name in Hebrew is Abaddon, and in Greek, Apollyon. The first woe is past; two other woes are yet to come." - Revelation 9:1-12 - so here we have this great big comet that falls to the earth. It opens up the Abyss (Hell?) and smoke pours out of it, but there is no fire. Hundreds of millions of freakishly dressed and freaky looking locusts - which have stingers - come out of this. Anyone who does not have the mark of God will be sought out and stung. There will be very few who can escape this torment. Anyone who is stung will call out for death, but they CAN NOT DIE. No matter what they do they will not be able to die. Those who try to find death will only make their suffering worse. The locusts will not harm believers or the plants. This is only the first woe.
The Sixth Trumpet : Army From The Far East : "The sixth angel sounded his trumpet, and I heard a voice coming from the horns of the golden alter that is before God. It said to the sixth angel who had the trumpet, "Release the four angels who ware bound at the great river Euphrates." And the four angels who had been kept ready for this very hour and day and month and year were released to kill a third of mankind. The number of the mounted troops was two hundred million. I heard their number. The horses and riders I saw in my vision looked like this : Their breastplates were fiery red, dark blue, and yellow as sulfur. The heads of the horses resembled the heads of lions, and out of their mouths came fire, smoke, and sulfur. A third of mankind was killed by the three plagues of fire, smoke and sulfur that came out of their mouths. The power of the horses was in their mouths and in their tails; for their tails were like snakes, having heads with which they inflict injury. The rest of mankind that were not killed by these plagues still did not repent of the work of their hands; they did not stop worshiping idols of gold, silver, bronze, stone, or wood--idols that cannot see or hear or walk. Nor did they repent of their murders, their magic arts, their sexual immorality, or their thefts." - Revelation 9:13-21 - So we've got these horses who don't really look like horses, who spit fire and sulfur and smoke from their mouths. They kill one third of the remaining people. Still, the people don't repent. :-( Very sad.
The Seventh Trumpet : Christ's Reign Foreseen : "The seventh angel sounded his trumpet, and there were loud voices in heaven, which said : ' "The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of His Christ, and He will reign forever and ever." ' And the twenty-four elders, who were seated on their thrones before God, fell on their faces sand worshiped God, saying : ' " We give thanks to You, Lord God Almighty, the One who is and who was, because You have taken Your great power and begun to reign. The nations were angry; and Your wrath has come. the time has come for judging the dead, and for rewarding your servants the prophets and your saints and those who reverence Your name, both small and great--and for destroying those who destroy the earth." ' Then God's temple in heaven was opened, and within His temple was seen the ark of His covenant. And there came flashes of lightning, rumblings, peals of thunder, and earthquake and a great hailstorm." -- Revelation 11:15-19 -- Christ's heaven will be moved to earth, and heaven will be opened and thunder, lighting, earthquakes and hail will pour from there. Christ will judge all who have died and His followers, and those who destroy the earth with their wickedness.
The rest I'll let you read from the following sites. I hope I've helped you out some.

Just as a forewarning, this is going to be long. I write a lot. If that's a problem, stop reading right now.
I've been with my guy for nearly two years, and we're planning to get married after college.
His parents love me, his mom treats me like her daughter, I call her mom and she's fine with it. My dad likes my guy, and my guy likes my dad (they have a lot in common, actually...), I have a ring on my finger, and we hardly ever fight.
The only problem is my mother...My whole life I've always craved my mother's approval. For awhile, she was almost my idol. I admired her...but I find myself trying to ignore her now. All she does is criticize things my boyfriend does and point out all the negative things she possibly can when she knows I love him and he's proven to her several times that he loves me and truly cares for me.
A big problem is my mother's chemical sensitivity. She's allergic to quite a bit of...well, everything, really. My family can't use anything scented because scents make her sick - they give her headaches, make her nauseated, she acts drunk...
She needs to ask people who come over to our house to wash their clothes in unscented laundry detergent, to use unscented shampoo, soap, everything.
My boyfriend's not exactly...compliant. I hate having to ask people to get unscented, especially him. Call me girly, but I like the way he smells. I can't help it. It's kind of a comforting thing. So I'm not pushing the "get unscented" issue because I don't really want it to happen. However I would like him to be able to come over every so often. He doesn't seem to understand that he can't fool my mom by standing under the shower for a few minutes and that he needs to use unscented shampoo and soap to get the smell that was there off.
He thinks my mom's crazy. It offends me a little, and I've told him that. But it bothers me more that my mother seems to be trying more than anything to get me to break up with him, though she claims she's not. She told me once "get another boyfriend who'll do what we need."
How do I get her to see that I picked him, I want to marry him, and I'm not about to leave him for some prick who only loves my body?
How do I get him to be more compliant?
How do I get my mother and my fiance to get along? I've tried talking to her and I've tried talking to him. I haven't tried having them talk to each other, though. I'm not sure how much that'd help, though...they can't go out to dinner or whatever because my mother's allergic to everything. What can I do?
Please, no smartass remarks and make an effort not to use chatspeak. It confuses me, and I'll just rate you down. Thanks in advance. =) (link)

Hey sweetie! Man... that sounds like a real problem. So, you love him. That's a feeling most of us know. It's cool, isn't it? I don't want to seem harsh or uncaring here, but sometimes you've gotta be your own mommy. I know she's your mother and all.. and you love her, of course, but if you really love your fiance, and want to spend the rest of your life with him, don't listen to the negative things your mother says. Your mom won't have to live with him until she dies, or sleep in the same room (same bed, too) as him, nor will she raise children - if that is your plan - with him. I'm not trying to be uncaring, or harsh, but ... it's true. Your mom chose her husband, shouldn't you be able to choose yours? I think so.
Your mom is allergic to alot of stuff - you know this from growing up with her there - but your fiance doesn't. I know you've tried to talk with both of them, but why don't you try one more time? Try planing out what you want to say, and maybe have an outline so you don't forget anything important. (or memorize what you want to say) Did your mom ever have allergy tests done? If so, you could show your fiance the papers from that test as tangible proof that she's allergic to scents. If she never had a test done, why don't you suggest that to her? Then you can know exactly what she's allergic to and what she's not. Then you can buy (hopefully) shampoo and soap that is scented, but won't bother your mom. I'd suggest telling your fiance (straight up) that it is a little offending when he says your mom is crazy... after all, she is your mom. Try to get him to understand that you love him, but you want your mom to love him too. And perhaps that means using unscented shampoo and soap. Offer to buy the unscented soap and shampoo for your boyfriend to use when he's coming over.
As for mom. Ask her to be a little more understanding with your fiance. Explain to her that you really love him, and you really love her, but you want to marry him. Tell her that you'll try and get him to use unscented soap and shampoo, but that you love the way he smells and you'd like her to be more understanding. Why don't you explain that you can only find a guy that makes you this happy once in a while.. maybe only once in a lifetime.. and you want to keep him.
Then why don't you cook something your mom can eat, and invite your fiance over. (Make sure he showers with that unscented soap!) Then, talk to your mom and boyfriend together. Make it clear that you love them both, and want them to get along.
I hope everything works out. Sorry if this didn't quite cover everything...

Jaimee,
On your desktop, right-click the Internet Explorer icon. You'll get a drop-down list that says :
Open Home Page
______________
Create Shortcut
Delete
Rename
______________
Properties
Click on properties.
That will open a new window. At the top, there are several (seven) buttons. (General, Security, Privacy, Content, Connections, Programs, Advanced) Click on General.
At the top of that page, there's a place that says "Home Page :" and a little address bar. Type http://www.advicenators.com/ in that address bar, then click Apply (at the bottom of the window). Voila, now Advicenators is your home page. =)
Or you can do it by....
Open Internet Explorer. At the top (above the address bar, on the Toolbar) there are six buttons. (File, Edit, View, Favorites, Tools, Help) Click on Tools. It will open a drop down menu. At the very bottom of the drop down menu, there's a button that says "Internet Options." Click on that. From there, you'll see the "Home Page" address bar and be able to type http://www.advicenators.com/ in and, once again - voila! Advicenators is your homepage. =)

Can anyone help me on riding horses? Like what do I do to make him walk, trot or anything else? How do I stop him? I need answers in the next 1 and a half hours or so. I rate 5's for decent answers. HELP!!! (link)
|
Okay. You're a beginner. That's fairly obvious. (no offense or anything.) You probably shouldn't go faster than a jog or a trot at most. Most horses are taught to walk, trot, canter, hand-gallop, and gallop with leg pressure. NOT KICKING! A squeeze with your calves. When you're riding a horse (English, western, australian, bareback - I don't care what style) SIT UP STRAIGHT! Let your legs fall naturally slightly in front of your body. Your knees will bend a little bit, that's okay. When you're sitting, pretend you're sitting on your pockets; but keep your back straight. Your heels will fall to the ground naturally, don't push them down, let them hang there naturally. If you're using stirrups, keep the ball of your foot in the center of the stirrup. The stirrups are NOT braces. Do not brace your feet against them! This will completely throw your balance off! Think of the stirrups as footrests, nothing more.
LiFE LESSON : ALWAYS WEAR A HELMET!!!!!!!
To keep your back straight, pretend you have a book tied to your back that forces you to keep your back straight. Keep your shoulders level, slightly back. Don't look down! Keep your chin up, and smile! Fasten your saftey helmet and be sure it fits correctly. A helmet needs to be SEI approved! When you nod your head up and down and shake your head from side to side your helmet shouldn't move! A bicycle helmet WILL NOT WORK. That can actually hurt your head more than it will help! A SEI approved helmet is specially made for equestrians (horse-back riders).
It is very important to wear the correct clothes. Wear long pants (jeans, breeches, jhodpurs, sweatpants) and hard soled shoes with a small heel like paddock boots, cowboy boots, or tall-boots. If you don't have any of those, scrounge up some rain boots or galoshes. If you don't have any of those either, wear sneakers, tie them securely, but don't put your feet in the stirrups. Sneakers have gripping tread on the bottoms and that can get caught in the stirrups. Trust me, you don't want your feet caught in the stirrups, you can fall off, but your foot might get stuck and you'd be drug along! How scary! Don't wear a long T-shirt unless you tuck it in, it can get hung over the saddle horn in a western or an Australian saddle, or you can be sitting on it and falter terribly. Plus, if you're taking lessons, your teacher will want to see your form, including your lower back, seat, and upper legs - a big T-shirt hides all of those things. If you're going to wear a jacket, put it on before you get on the horse. Only experienced riders should put on / take off clothes while mounted.
LiFE LESSON : TiE YOUR SHOES EXTREMELY WELL - DOUBLE KNOTS!!
To ask your horse to go forwards, squeeze your calves against his side lightly and say "Walk," in a firm voice. If this doesn't get it, squeeze a bit harder and say 'Walk' again. Once your horse is walking, make sure you're comfortable with it. Go with the motion of the horse. Try putting one hand on his withers (shoulders) and feel the movement. Mimic the horses movements with your arms and legs. This will help you stay seated. The walk is sortof like a figure eight. It's almost as if you're making a figure eight with your seat. When your horse is thoroughly warmed up (ten minutes of walking or so), if you feel confident enough, try squeezing the horses' sides again with your calves and saying "Trot," in a firm voice. The trot is bumpy on most horses, but a few horses have smooth trots. Be warned though, you probably won't have a smooth ride! When a horse trots, its hips go side to side (as do its shoulders). Try moving your seat side to side, gently, and the ride should be a little smoother. If you're riding a very bumpy trot, or in an English saddle, try posting - or rising - to the trot. This means stand up and sit down every other step. Basically, "Stand, sit, stand, sit, stand, sit, stand, sit..." Don't rise too high, though. Use your stirrups to help you stand, but try to use your thighs and knees. You don't have to stand up very far, just a little bit. The posting (rising) trot is hard to get the hang of, but it's fun to do.
LiFE LESSON : STAY CALM. HORSES CAN SENSE FEAR, AND iF YOU'RE AFRAiD, THE HORSE WiLL BE TOO!!
Tomorrow you'll probably be so sore it hurts to walk. Trust me on this. Lol.
If you're riding with friends or a teacher, and you have a question, ASK IT!!!!!!!!!!! If you don't ask it, you might get hurt! Which is bad! Very bad!
LiFE LESSON : BRUSH YOUR HORSE VERY WELL BEFORE SADDLiNG, HE WiLL THANK YOU!!
To hold the reins, make a "3" hand. (Hold up three fingers : your index finger, your middle finger, and your ring finger) and wrap them around the reins. Do this on both sides. Since you're still learning, it's probably best that you ride split reined. If your horse is trained for neck-reining, hold the reins in your right hand (unless you're left handed) and but your index finger inbetween the two reins. Wrap your other fingers around the reins. To turn left (split reins), take your left hand and GENTLY! pull it towards your left knee. The horse will go left. To turn the horse right, take your right hand and GENTLY! pull it towards your right knee. The horse will go right. To stop your horse, GENTLY! GENTLY! GENTLY! pull back on the reins, towards your waist. NEVER NEVER NEVER EVER EVER lift your hands above your waist line. A horse is more apt to rear when you're pulling up on his mouth. Keep your hands in the imaginary box right in front of the saddle. It's right about where his mane starts, put your hands there and follow the movement of the horse. When you're neck reining, and you want to go left, put your hand on the left side of the horses neck and GENTLY pull a LITTLE bit. To go right, put your hand on the right side of the horses neck and GENTLY pull a LITTLE bit. To stop, pull GENTLY back to your waist. It helps when stopping to calmly say "Whhhooaaa." Draw it out, say it in a low, calm voice - but be firm.
LiFE LESSON : LEAVE VAULTING (gymnastics on horseback) TO THE EXPERiENCED RiDERS - YOU COULD GET HURT!!
To mount (get on) the horse, stand on his left side, at his shoulder, facing his tail. Put your left foot in the stirrup and bounce (gently) three times. On the third bounce, jump (gently) up and swing your leg over the horses rear end. Be careful not to kick him! Hold carefully to the reins and the horses' mane while mounting. Horses have no nerves in their manes, they don't feel it when you pull on their mane. Most horses are good about you pulling their manes, though some are a little skittish. Be careful. When you want to dismount (get off), take your right foot out of the stirrup, stand all your weight in the left stirrup, swing your right leg over the back of the horse (don't kick him!), lean over the saddle on your stomach and slide to the ground. Bend your knees when you land or the shock of hitting the ground can make you fall. (I've done this quite a few times!)
Remember, IF YOU HAVE A QUESTION -- ASK IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So important.
Okay now - go have fun! Be careful! And ask questions!!

Ok well im a 17/f and me and my boyfriend have sexand everything but like 4 months ago his condom broke and we didnt know it and now im pregnant. Well i want to keep the baby and my parents are all for me and any choice i make about the baby. Well my boyfriend and me are decieding if we should keep the baby and he wants to help raise the child if we decide to keep it. well i dont know if i should keep the baby. you see i will be able too because i act very mature for my age, i already moved out of my house when i was 16 because of family issues and i already have 1 child( i was raped when i 14 and i didnt give her up for adoption) what should i do should i keep the baby or give it up? (link)

I really think you should keep the child. You already have one child, as you said, and she would probably enjoy having a little brother or sister. She would be... four now? That's about how old I was when my little sister was born... and if you can support the child, keep it! An abortion will wreck you... inside and out. It can cause depression and self-harm, and it can also cause injury to your "insides," and prohibit you from having children in the future. Abortion is murder. I don't wanna seem harsh or uncaring, but it is. Everyone who is for abortion has already been born. Value human life! Do not become a murderer. I'm quite sure that's not what you want. If your boyfriend is willing to support and help raise the baby, by all means - go for it! You sound mature for your age, and you have experience (in the Mommy division), I think you should keep the baby. Best of wishes!

how do you make these ♥ without copying them (link)

The HTML code for that is " & hearts ; "
Remove the quotation marks (") and the spaces. Don't capitalize the 'H' in 'hearts,' or it won't work. Basically, it'd look like this :
&Hearts;
If you noticed, I capitalized the 'H' in 'hearts,' because I wanted you to see what it'd look like. There you go. And for more really cool HTML stuff, check out :
