Not necessarily. There's a good chance that he's quite right and you DO have a big ego.

Depends what the shows are. Many shows are available on the network websites or on hulu at www.fancast.com (or both.) A few are very limited by the network - CBS is the big irritating network that won't let its shows be rebroadcast on the internet. So if your shows are on CBS, good luck. Some of the less available shows can be found on www.megavideo.com

You've been listening to too many fundamentalists. We weren't so much made to worship God as to glorify him and enjoy him.

Purring actually does not necessarily mean your cat is happy. Critically injured cats purr in pain, too. However, most cats if they trust you will not mind if you pet and handle their kittens.

Your ex is out of line, and you should tell your son how it really is. If there's more to it than just the question, you may be able to petition the court to have only supervised visits with him.

How often should you wash your dog?
I don't have a dog. My cats wash themselves daily.
However, when I was in college I had a blind roommate with a seeing eye dog, and she washed her once a week! She had to have special shampoo so it wouldn't dry out her skin.

I am 20 Y/O, periods usually regular, except this is the third time I have got it THIS MONTH! Is this a normal thing to happen every now and again or what could be causing this?
I once got it twice in a month... but it means that your hormonal cycle is off, and it could indicate a much more serious problem - like it's not your period, but is something else bleeding in there - and you should consult with a doctor if it continues.
Answer to:
There is always boys' fault In rape cases.but some fault by girls too?
No. A woman's behavior is not always appropriate. And sometimes it is downright wrong. She is responsible for her own actions. However, even the most inappropriate actions should NEVER result in rape. No matter what the woman does, the rapist is ALWAYS responsible for his own actions and fully guilty. It is NOT the victim's fault in any way.

I am a new Christian who has never married, but have been out of the "dating scene" for a long time. Is it common practice among true believers to "date" persons of interest, or do Christians do things differently?
It varies. Many Christians tend towards a paradigm of "courtship"... some are more modern than that. The key is really the attitude towards the person. "Dating" is okay, so long as your behavior is appropriate... so no using people, no pre-marital sex, and no leading people on. However, the practice of spending time together is generally pretty normal ;-)

Who would win a debate between Barack Obama and Rush Limbaugh?
Depends on the kind of debate.
Limbaugh thinks very fast on his feet, and is used to handling unscripted questions and making his own answers. If it were an unscripted interview wherein they were required to come up with their own answers on the fly, I think he'd win.
Obama is the better orator, and if he had prior knowledge of the content of the debate and the behind-the-scenes...

I experience severe cramping periodically in a small area directly under the right breast. I have been told that it's musculoskeletal, but never how to prevent it. It happens when I bend forward, like when I am pulling on socks. What causes this?
It sounds very much like a problem my sister had. Hers was a rib which had been pushed out of place somehow, and a visit to the chiropractor fixed that right up - without having to go back two times a week forever after. It could also be a problem in your spine, which might be more complicated, but still, your best bet might be to visit a chiropractor, who should be able to help you with it.

Twins aren't something you can wish on yourself. Fraternal twins are genetic from the maternal side, and skip a generation - so if your mother was a twin, you are likely to have twins....

Do you ever notice when watching some cooking shows that they don't wash the chicken when they take it out of the package?
Actually, "they" no longer recommend washing chicken prior to preparing and cooking it. "They" realized that you were liable to contaminate other things in the kitchen (anything you put in the sink, sponges, utensils, etc) while washing... and the bacteria in the chicken is killed in the cooking process anyway. Just wash your hands and cutting boards with hot soapy water...

Well when ever i'm really close to my bf i get turned on and i ask him if he wants to "do" anything and recently i asked if hes ok and he said that asking for sex alot is really annoying and that he should make the moves for now on...is this right?
If you're 16, in my opinion, you shouldn't be having sex anyway. When you get older, you'll find a guy who's a bit less obnoxious and doesn't find you annoying, and he'll like you to ask and find it a turn-on. In the meantime, go home and reconsider your life and what you're doing with it before you end up a teenage mother with a father who finds you asking...

Does talking to yourself indicate you're going nuts?
No, talking to yourself is a perfectly normal (and extremely common) thing to do. The psychological term for it is "self-talk" and if you get good at it, it can be very helpful. Many athletes use this to help them perform better. And most people verbalize their thoughts. Specially people who are very auditory in their learning.
Nor is this a symptom of any recognized mental...

Yes. But not for the reasons you think you should be, and you should really consider what he said, too.
Your boyfriend's way of putting his frustration was unacceptable. He shouldn't EVER tell you he's sick of hearing from you. Even if he is. And if he feels obliged to say something, it shouldn't be like that.
However, you should also consider that he may not want...

In a box there are 4 chocolate bars, 3 gums and two mints. What is the probability that you pick a chocolate bar and a gum? I know I need to use the P(A) = n(A) / n(S) formula, and I'm pretty sure that the n(S) is equal to 9P2. I just don't know n(A).
I'm unclear on your notation, but...
You have a dependent probability here.
The P of a chocolate bar is 4/9 and the P of a gum after you've gotten the chocolate bar is 3/8. So the P of getting both is 1/6.

You have the number 3, and the numbers 13 and 23. Then you have 30-39, followed by 43, 53, 63, 73, 83, and 93. Counting that up, it makes 19 possibilities between 1 and 100. To expand that to 1000, you have 19 possibilities for each hundred... other than the ones from 300-399, where you have exactly 100 possibilities.

Try going and getting some marriage counseling. As you mature into marriage, it doesn't prevent you from disagreeing, but it changes what happens when you DO disagree. You have to learn to "fight" fair, and resolve the disagreement without making it a personal issue. Marriage counseling might help you learn to argue helpfully instead of destructively.

I'd say that's not a difference between the sexes but a difference between people. There are people who complain about equally in both genders... and people who don't also equally between the genders. I think you need to find yourself some better women to hang out with if you're finding that the ones you know are whiney.

3 Bus. men split a hotel room. $30. Each pays $10. The cost is only $25, so the mgr has $5 to refund. The men decide to each accept $1, and give the bellboy a $2 tip. So, each man has spent $9 - The tip is $2. (27+2=$29) Where's the last $?
Why on earth are you subtracting the 3 from 30 instead of adding it to 25? Or alternately, adding the 2 onto 27 instead of subracting it. You're combining the two equations. The final equation shouldn't equal 30, it should be 25. The bellboy was given two of those final dollars... so (27-2=25).

Keep it anyway. It's still your child, and it's not the baby's fault the circumstances. Also, it can hurt your body to kill the baby. If it's too hard for you to keep it, consider doing an open adoption where you'd be able to see your child when/if you wanted to.

Best to visit a doctor. It could be you are pregnant - it could be that you were and had a miscarriage. And it could be something else entirely. Only a doctor and a blood test will be able to tell you accurately.

My husband recently changed the passwords on his three desktops. He wont give me acess, yet says nothing is going on. He has a history of cheating (this is how we got together, regrettably). Do I worry?
Obviously you do. And you should. What made you think that you were going to be different? Your husband got bored with the girl he was with when he cheated on you. Now he's most likely getting bored with you and moving on. If that's his attitude towards women, it'll be his attitude towards you too.

Answer to:
How do I get my new born baby into a sleeping routine and should I get him to feed every 4 hours or only when he wakes up?
Feeding a baby "on demand" - that is, whenever they ask for it, is generally the healthiest thing for both of you. The baby's body knows when it's hungry and wants milk, and feeling satisfied will help the baby sleep better, and it will fall naturally into a routine that works for both of you.

God simply does not punish the son for the sins of the father. It is NOT your fault that your son is an addict. Your son would indeed be left alone if you were to die... left alone with nobody to love him, nobody as a good example for him, nobody to turn to when he needs it. Rather than wish to die, pray for him, and get him the help he needs from professionals who do that sort of thing....

I don't think my peanut-butter cookie recipe even has butter in it. I use shortening often even if it does. Do you have shortening? Oil won't get the texture you need. It needs to have solid fat at room temperature or it won't fluff up right.

You need to make an effort to make your boyfriend comfortable around your parents, and your parents comfortable around your boyfriend.

Refusing to sigh will prolong the battle, but it will not win you anything unless you can win your husband's heart back in that time.
And as a Christian the Bible says to let an unbelieving spouse go if they wish to. Not a popular thing to do, but you shouldn't have married him to begin with if you at the time were a Christian and he was not.

Until World War 1, when women often had to work, and it was viewed as patriotic, and shortly thereafter, sexy, as Hollywood began portraying them that way.

Exactly. You got them too big and they're too heavy. I go from a B cup to a large D cup when nursing a baby, and even at that I have to be careful of back pain. Your body is not set up for those implants and the extra weight is hurting you. If you want to keep them at least try to keep your posture as good as you can.

I find it a racist question, and stereotyping not only the race but the age and gender as well. I know plenty of younger white girls whose conversation sounds NOTHING like that. So ultimately, my thought is that it's a bad question.

Children need to be exposed and be helped to know how to react and deal with reality, not to be denied reality until they deal with things without any concept of reality or how to react. At what point do you expect a child to suddenly know what to do when they've had no practice or...

No, it might help you decide.

Does anyone else find the Olympics really boring, and want to vomit when faced with another slow-motion faux-dramatic athlete-themed commercial?
The olympics were MUCH more fun the year I watched them on a couple different channels, some of which were Canadian. There were choices and the Canadian coverage showed contests the Americans didn't stand a chance in. It's more fun when it's more bout athletes doing amazing things than your country being uber.

This is a difficult question: If a baby survives a late-term abortion, meaning it is alive outside of the womb, should the doctor be allowed to finish the abortion? Or should the baby be allowed to live? I seriously would like to hear thoughts on this...
Actually, it's an easy question. The baby is born alive. It's a baby, and it's alive. Should the doctor be allowed to kill it? Of course not. First, do no harm. Isn't killing someone harm? It's murder.
Of course, I don't think late term abortion should be allowed anyway. Just because the baby is currently inside its mother doesn't make it less a baby...

What is y = x - 6 and y = 3x - 14
It's a system of equations.
From the first equation,
x = y+6
so y = 3(y+6)-14
= 3y + 18 - 14
so y - 3y = 4 = -2y
y = -2
thus x = 4
And if you plug them in to check it, it works.

Can a person get swimmers ear from chlorinated water or is it just from swimming in other bodies of water?
You can get swimmer's ear from any water in your ear - even from bath or shower water. Chemicals like chlorine actually can break down your body's natural defenses and make infection MORE likely, not less.

There are plenty of non-lesbian girls out here who like soccer, softball and keep our nails short. And there are lesbians who keep long painted nails and don't like sports. Eye contact merely means she's noticed you exist, and being a twin is completely irrelevant. You need to reconsider your approach to things if this is indicative of your normal approach to people, particularly...

Because you're wired to respond to physical touch, and because you probably don't get enough of it for your need. People respond differently to different types of communication, and you happen to respond strongly to touch. And because you have a need for a lot of touch and aren't getting as much as you could, you're willing to see that touch from anyone willing to give it....

Should the parents of a 6 year old tell them how the real world is when asked or should they fluff it up and pretend its all pink cotton wool and fluffy clouds?

But don't give them too much at a time either, because again they won't have the ability to handle it!

I've had a number of cats and they ALL turned out as very sweet adult cats. Of course, their playfulness waned as they turned into old cats instead of young ones,...

4, only a few weeks shy of 5.
I'm actually about to start my 4 year old this fall, though she wont' turn 5 until February and would not be allowed in the public schools in my area because she's too young. She wants to do it though, and I see no reason for a year of her hard work to be put to waste because the federal government tells her she's too little to want to learn.

Try offering a pet-sitting service while people are on vacation - if your reputation will have people let you in their homes! You could also try walking dogs or gardening or mowing lawns for people.

Would i be racist to say i dont want my daughter to date/marry whites b/c they divorce and cheat a lot compared to my culture?
Yes, you would be. You're basing a judgment on race not on the person. You should be focusing on teaching her and helping her to choose a faithful man who takes his marriage and his wife seriously and will love her. Even your race has cheaters and divorcees... you should consider the man himself, not his skin color.

What is the worst sunburn outline you ever had? pictures maybe...
A couple times in my youth I got sunburn badly enough on my shoulders that it blistered. Huge pus-filled blisters, mind you. A trip to the beach with my cousins, a long day at the pool with my best friend... without reapplying sunscreen. Now I'm VERY careful about sunburn, specially on my shoulders and my kids.

I am an exhibitionist who enjoys wearing in public places, very thin blouses or shirts without a bra so that my nipples are outlined. I am not hookers but enjoy wearing sexy clothes. What are the best ways to be admired but not ridiculed?
The more noticeable and flamboyant it is, the more people will think "hooker". Keep it professional looking and accessorize carefully. If you do that, you might be able to pull off a pretty sheer shirt and get good attention. It has to look less deliberate though - because MOST of the people deliberately showing themselves off are doing it for sale not for attention.

If a teenager is talking about suicide do you think the old saying "If they are talking about it they won`t do it" is true... or should I be seeking help for him?I`m very worried and scared for him.
You should be seeking help. Talking about it is a cry for help, and help should be found. Ignoring the cry is likely to make the person believe help isn't available and to become truly hopeless.

I have a pain in my knee whenever I straighten my leg all the way. It feels like my knee is gonna bend backward and hurts under my kneecap. I have to walk with my leg slightly bent and my knee has felt swollen for the past month. Any ideas what this is?
It sounds exactly like a... great time to call the doctor. Knee problems can be extremely painful, and if it's been a month and isn't getting better, you'll need something done about it. The only way to do that is to get a proper diagnosis with X-rays and things, and to do that, you'll have to go visit a doctor.

No, it's not rape, no you shouldn't leave him.
You SHOULD go immediately and get some counselling though. You shouldn't be pretending to be asleep to avoid "messing". He shouldn't be taking a presumably sleeping wife. Both of you should be mature enough to actually talk about it. What sort of marriage do you have where you can't even talk about...

Because our society is training you NOT to grow up until you're 30... to extend childhood long beyond the natural childhood we have.

Because we as a...

Actually "home alone" laws vary by state. Most states do not specify an age but require a "maturity level" commensurate with the behavior. Generally law enforcement expects children to be 12 or 13 before they are left home alone.

I never failed a class. I did fail a few tests (though I was in good company with more than half the class generally) in college. I had a prof nicknamed Dean the Flunking Machine for a few classes... and he ended up asking me to grade for him even after I'd failed tests of his. I guess he regards failing things as normal.
