2. Open Question: can somebody suggest a CMS system for a small business (organize sales leads,etc) that can be accessed online?
We are a small company of several people. We all work from our own homes.(3 different locations) We need software to organize our sales leads, invoices, etc but we all need to access the same data so we need software that will store this information in a database online ( a web hosting account lets say that offers mysql databases). We currently have a Linux web hosting account for our website and it offers databases ( if this helps) This way, any of us can access the data from any location and update it. it can be a web based program or can be installed on our pc, as long as the data can be stored online for access to all of us. We need a free program that can do this. Any suggestions?

3. Open Question: Can we really depend on the "Private Sector"?
So many times I have heard Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity and Republican Politicians say that we should trust the Private Sector to create jobs. The belief that Government has no responsibility to create jobs, which is far of base, and that we should depend on the PS, seems to be the backdrop for the argument of "less government". But when I look closely at the way people have changed, I don't trust the private sector at all! The landscape of why people start businesses up is not to offer services and be proud of that, no...its to get rich! People want more!!! More cars, bigger homes for their families of 4, larger investment portfolios, and the very worse...more money in the Bank! This is a fact.(look it up) More money is owned by the richest than ever before. It used to be around 2 percent now its approaching 10! That's a lot of money that is not in circulation. No one talks about the money that is simply being hoarded and not doing anything to help those that need work. The difference in mindset is so different than it was 40 years ago when individuals had some sense of when enough is enough. Everyone of those who invested with Bernie Maddoff already had enough money, so why did they do it? Greed. Your thoughts, can we really depend on the Private Sector to operate like it used too? And to those who want to blame Obama, stop! The Private Sectors' decline in creating jobs has been going on for that past 10 years.

5. Open Question: Help needed urgently on article writing? PLZ re-write the given article in 500+ word. 10 PTS 2 best answer?
A Review of the Ignite Energy MLM Opportunity Ignite Energy MLM is a perfect example of using the MLM genealogy leads. Another company called Excel goes under and most of the people from there end up rolling right into I.E. Coincidence? Not really, it was pretty much everyone that made money in the telecommunications company could be leaders in this new business and make it go from just a match to igniting overnight. If your looking for a company where you deal with inventory, Ignite Energy is not for you. There is no inventory dealing with electricity deregulation which makes life a heck of a lot easier in this MLM company. Add a low investment plan and many are easily interested in this newer opportunity. You might be wondering how exactly you make money with Ignite Energy MLM. This is an important thing to think about and more people should with every business even though this is slightly different. After getting the full background information on the company its just like any other MLM in the sense that you need to get people to come in underneath you. Evidently, the people that are making the big bucks, driving the fancy cars, and showing off their wealth are those that are leaders. The ones that don't go one on one with someone very much. Instead they settle for nothing less then groups of 10, 20, or hundreds of people. The ones that send you invitations to come visit a seminar in the local hotel. Plan on pulling out the checkbook when joining Ignite Energy MLM because the initial cost for is $329 plus an annual fee of $99. If you want to become certified to do like the big wigs do and go to fairs, malls, and give big presentations you can pay an additional $99 on top of the initial cost and you'll become a Marketing Associate Director. Explaining the payment plan would only confuse you, but they do have videos that make it a lot more understandable then reading an article and just having that big question mark over your head when your done. There are discounts, however, if you live in different states ranging from $199-$299. Ignite Energy MLM is for the serious multilevel marketer. The good thing about an investment this size is people take the program a lot more seriously then one where you pay an initial fee of $0-$50. Not to take anything away from those businesses, but many times its a lot easier for people to get lazy if the out of pocket is minimal. If you feel this company is for you and that the deregulation of electricity is going to be the wave of the future, your search for a home based business could be over. However, you should bring along your own questions and criteria when making your final decision. Which ever you decide, you'll at least know when you done that you researched everything you needed to within the Ignite Energy MLM. PLs help me to do it..PLZZZZZZZ

7. Resolved Question: If I choose to go back to school, will it put too much pressure on my husband?
Recently, I've decided that I want to move on with my life and start building myself up more than I have in the past. I'm married and I have an 8 month old daughter. I'm a stay-at-home mom, and although I'm happy in that role, I don't feel challenged in many other ways. I've signed up for a couple of classes and I'm happily looking forward to attending some weight watchers meetings and joining a gym next month so that I can lose the left-over baby weight and feel good about myself. However, I really want to turn those couple of classes into something more serious come next fall or winter. I'm really hoping to go back to school, regain my figure and work on a plan to start a home-based business down the road. I'm worried though, that all of my ambitions will put too much pressure on my husband. When I speak to him, he doesn't seem to have much to say about it. Truth be told, he doesn't really like getting out much, and for a while, especially while the baby was younger I was in the same boat with him. But I don't want to waste away, spending every minute inside the house. Just because I'm married and have a baby doesn't mean I'm ready to throw in the towel on life you know? Is this inconsiderate to my husband? I'm worried that he will feel threatened by my efforts to get back to my old shape and go back to school. He's not terribly descriptive about his feelings and I'd hate to drive any sort of ridge between us. Any advice is surely appreciated.

10. Open Question: Did you enjoy the Super Bowl?
I am sat watching the Super Bowl here in england at 12:30am not worrying about having to get up at the crack of dawn. I will wake about 8:30am and enjoy a great day with my daughter. Do I have the day off ? No. I work from home in my own home based business, which gives me the freedom and the time to spend with my family and to enjoy my life to the full. I'm wondering how many of you out there would love to do the same? Feel free to contact me. (All those who are thinking of leaving those weird or snotty messages...why are you wasting your time?)

11. Open Question: What breed of dog do I have?!?
I need opinions from breeders and others very familiar with small breed dogs. I have been looking for a puppy for about a year, scanning petfinder.com and local small breed rescue shelters. I was really looking mainly for a maltese, shih-tzu, or any toy breed mix of the two which would give me a small dog that would be comfortable in an apartment as well as not shed as much as other breeds. To my excitement, about a three weeks ago we found an ad in the IWANNA about 2 hours away that there were Maltipoo puppies at 7 weeks for $200. My boyfriend went and bought one of them knowing that it was priced lower because he hadn't had his shots yet.. probably the first clue it wasn't a good breeder. When he got home with him, he was so small, after weighing him at petsmart, .8 lbs small. I also discovered some fleas which after 2 hours, pulled 20 off his little body. When trying to get his shots the next day, as the breeder stated he was right at 7 weeks, the vet refused saying the pup was only about 5 weeks. Luckily my roommate has a mini dachshund to help with socialization and he has shown no signs of aggression or timidity. I was wondering, however, he doesn't look quite like a maltese or poodle at this age and though we are fairly sure the mom (poodle) that was on-site was the mom since my boyfriend saw a pup nursing (another bad sign), I was just wondering if there were any ideas or educated guesses that someone could lend based on his picture and a 10lb poodle mommy and a maltese daddy who reportedly weighed about 5 or 6 lbs. Boone does not shed at all and as you can see from the picture he is adorable and I will love him no matter what he looks like. This picture was taken yesterday and from the vet's estimate, he is somewhere between 6 and 7 weeks. Any thoughts? I want to say poodle for sure but with the smaller snout, I know that he may very well be mixed with maltese. Just hasn't started fluffing up yet, possibly due to his young age. He was 1.2 lbs last weekend (after a week of TLC) when I weighed him but due to bad weather I haven't gotten to weigh him again since. Hoping for 2 lbs next weekend so we can get flea prevention!! :) And I wish there was more information publicized about bad breeders because if I had been able to see the puppy before my boyfriend bought it we could have figured out that it was just completely too small. I know now that if this less than 1 lb puppy stayed with that breeder he probably would have died from dehydration and anemia, but I would have preferred not to keep a backyard breeder in business. :(

16. Resolved Question: Why are some members of the tea party movement attacking President Obama on the bases of taxes?
Yes President Obama is letting the Bush tax cuts for people making over $250,000 a year expire but President Obama's stimulus bill had $282 billion in tax cuts. (if President Obama has increased taxes please post which piece of legislation it was) Individual Tax Cuts: 1. "Making Work Pay" Tax Credit (Sec. 1001, Page 195). In tax years 2009 and 2010, the Making Work Pay provision will provide a refundable tax credit of 6.2 percent of earned income up to $400 for individuals and up to $800 for married taxpayers filing joint returns. 2. Increase in the Earned Income Tax Credit (Sec. 1002, Page 198). Go to the stimulus bill for all the details, but it essentially expands this benefit for the working poor. 3. Increased Eligibility for the Refundable Portion of Child Credit (Sec. 1003, Page 199). In 2009 and 2010, families who don’t earn enough to pay income tax would be eligible to claim the $1,000 child credit. 4. "American Opportunity" Education Tax Credit (Sec. 1004, Page 199). Increases the Hope Scholarship Credit to $2,500. 5. Refundable First-time Home Buyer Credit. (Sec. 1006, Page 202). This extended and increased the first-time home buyer tax credit from $7,500 to $8,000. 6. Temporary Suspension of Taxation of Unemployment Benefits (Sec. 1007, Page 203). This exempts from taxable gross income the first $2,400 of unemployment benefits. 7. Tax Credits for Energy-Efficient Improvements to Existing Homes (Sec. 1121, Page 208). This provides up to a $1,500 tax credit for qualified energy efficiency improvements. 8. Sales Tax Deduction for Vehicle Purchases (Sec. 1008, Page 203). This allows people to write off state and local sales taxes related to the purchase of a new vehicle costing up to $49,500. 9. Premium Credits for COBRA Continuation Coverage for Unemployed Workers (Sec. 6432, Page 348) 10. Economic Recovery Credits to Recipients of Social Security, SSI, Railroad Retirement and Veterans Disability Compensation Benefits (Sec. 2201, Page 336). This was a $250 payment for senior citizens, disabled veterans and disabled people living on Social Security benefits. 11. Computers as Qualified Education Expenses in 529 Education Plans (Sec. 1005, Page 202). This allows college students to write off the expense of computers and software, provided it's for educational purpose and not for games. 12. Plug-in Electric Drive Vehicle Credit (Sec. 1141, Page 212). Allows purchasers of plug-in electric vehicles to write off up to $5,000 of their purchase (depending on the power of the battery). 13. Tax Parity for Transit Benefits (sec. 1151, Page 219). This relates to an increased exclusion amount for commuter transit benefits and transit passes. 14. Health Coverage Tax Credit Expansion (Sec. 1899, Page 309). Small Business Tax Cuts: 1. Extension of Enhanced Small Business Expensing (Sec. 1202, Page 221). This is a temporary increase in limitations on expensing some depreciable business assets. 2. 5-Year Carryback of Net Operating Losses for Small Businesses (Sec. 1211, Page 221). 3. Extension of Bonus Depreciation (Sec. 1201, Page 220). This extends by a year election to accelerate the AMT and Research Credits in lieu of bonus depreciation. 4. Exclusion of 75% of Small Business Capital Gains from Taxes (Sec. 1241, Page 228). 5. Temporary Small Business Estimated Tax Payment Relief (Sec. 1212, Page 222). 6. Temporary Reduction of S Corporation Built-In Gains Holding Period from 10 Years to 7 Years (Sec. 1251, Page 228). Other Business Tax Cuts: 1. Advanced Energy Investment Credit (Sec. 1302, Page 231). This relates to properties designed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, such as those that produce energy from the sun, wind, geothermal deposits, fuel cells, microturbines, or an energy storage system for use with electric or hybrid-electric vehicles. 2. Tax Credits for Alternative Refueling Property (Sec. 1123, Page 211). This is a temporary increase for alternative fuel vehicle refueling businesses. 3. Work Opportunity Tax Credits for Hiring Unemployed Veterans and Disconnected Youth (Sec. 1221, Page 223). This is a tax credit to provide incentive to businesses to hire unemployed veterans and "disconnected youth." That latter term is defined, in part, as young adults "not readily employable by reason of lacking a sufficient number of basic skills." 4. Delayed Recognition of Certain Cancellation of Debt Income (Sec. 1231, Page 224). 5. Election to Accelerate Recognition of Historic AMT/R&D Credits (Sec. 1201, Page 220). American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 to fact check me if you want to http://frwebgate.access.gpo.gov/cgi-bin/getdoc.cgi?dbname=111_cong_bills&docid=f:h1enr.txt.pdf

17. Open Question: Should I divorce now or later?
My husband is very secretive, has online dating profiles, hides his emails from me, chats with strangers and doesn't talk about his plans or his financial situation or his business deal with me at all. He has seen a lawyer for divorce and as he is saying the divorce papers are ready. He is still hesitant because we have a 3 year old daughter. I am the one holding this marriage together, but I can't take all this emotional drama and detachment anymore. After we talked he said, if I stop talking to my family altogether on the phone or online, like my mom and dad, and always clean the house and have warm food ready he may consider staying. I did that because I am scared of divorce, we were OK for a couple of days, but the secretive behavior stays the same. Today I said maybe you're right and we should get divorce. He was like a person jumping for a candy and said yes, don't change your mind. I will move out with my daughter, you stay here and I will serve you with the divorce papers. The problem is, I am a conditional green card holder based on marriage, and I want to keep this marriage together at least for another year until my paperwork is done, because I don't want to lose my baby to him. I think after I am a permanent resident, I will have a better chance of full custody. He really wants to deport me if he can. I had a phd scholarship when we came here, I studied for 1 year with straight A marks, but I recently quit the university for no reason, I think I am extremely depressed due to his behavior and don't see that energy in me to continue my phd now. I thought maybe I start a business from home, so I formed a corporation, but I seriously want to hold this marriage together at least until my paperwork is done. Do you think I should just let him go and face the dangers of deportation and all the hassle of divorce and paying for divorce lawyer as well as immigration lawyer, which I don't really have money for, or I should take his emotional detachment, suck it up and wait for another year?

21. Open Question: Amended return/1040X - Should I file one?
I just filed my 2009 Federal income tax return a few weeks ago and sent the I.R.S. a money order for the amount due. Today I received a 1099-SSA form showing that I had received an additional $364.00 (which I forgot to report on line 20a of 1040 form). This is non-taxable Social Security income so I won't owe the I.R.S. any extra money but I was still wondering if I need to file an amended return now or won't it be necessary since the $364.00 is non-taxable anyway?. Also, does a person open themselves up to additional scrutiny or unwanted attention by filing an amended return/1040X?. In other words, does this send up a giant "red flag" and cause the I.R.S. to probe, prod and peek into your life -or- do they simply file the new (amended) data and move on?. I've run a small, home-based business with very low profit margins for years and never had any issues with my taxes (or the I.R.S.) and I've filed every year but I also read that when your self-employed and/or take deductions for home office space, etc the IRS tends to pay more attention to your return and now, if I file an amended return/1040X I'm wondering if it's going to open me up to even more scrutiny or even an audit. Should I just wait for them to sent me a CP2000 since the extra amount won't add to my tax debt anyway?. Must I file a 1040X?. What is the risk/benefit ratio of doing so/not doing so, etc?. Thanks so much!.

23. Voting Question: how do i file a complaint against telemarketers that call 2-3 times a day and sometimes before 9am?
i have asked them to stop calling me. they stop for 1 day and start calling again with the same area code, but different phone number. they say i have asked for information about a "home-based" business. I don't need a "home-based" business. i have to take chemo treatments and this situation is causing me unnecessary stress. ATT suggested i change my phone number. why should i have to change a number i've had for years? there must be something that can be done. thanks for your help.

24. Voting Question: How about this business idea?
I was just thinking about random stuff like I always do, and this is what I came up with. A business that provides service to the people. A service that looks for the best deals for the customer based on their needs. Now what does this mean? -I thought of this after being sickened at all the false advertisements such as the "6 burger grill" that I bought, that can barely squeeze in two regular sized patties.- This company will look at a form filled out by the customer, including the type of item they want to purchase, the minimum and maximum or needed specifications, and the minimum and maximum price. The company will then search through a database of gathered research and find the closest matching products, then examine reviews, quality, durability, and then decide which would be the best suited, and the best deal for the customer. Once approved, the company can search through a database of retailers that have that item in stock, and have them reserve it for you to pick-up, or place an order of shipment. For example, say I want a new receiver for my home theater system. It needs to be black, have x amount of inputs/outputs, must have at least x amount of wattage, must be HDMI compatible with two ports, must be user-friendly, must fit inside a 2ft x 2.5ft x 3ft enclosure, and must be between $350-$600. Instead of spending my whole weekend running to-and-fro electronic stores, the company can look through and find which product best suits my needs. This idea will keep people from getting ripped off by false advertisements, save hours of personal searching time by the customer, and allow the customer to get the best they can out of their money. I don't know what a price range would be for this service. I really haven't thought of it much, just a 5 minute idea. What do you all think?

26. Voting Question: What is an SMTP account?
I have a home based business that has recently acquired several employees who are out of state. I have purchased laptops for them all that will be installed with the necessary software for business use only. Now I have installed a key logger program that I have used in my home for many years and love. What I need to know is the program says it can be set up to receive logs by email with a SMTP account. Exactly what is that and how do I go about setting it up? I use Office Outlook has my mail manager for several web accounts. P.S. Since it was mentioned I just wanted to say that they have been made aware of the monitoring program.

28. Resolved Question: Tax help with home business partnership?
Is it possible to go into a home based business with a close friend as my partner? Just brainstorming as she is majoring in graphic arts & web design & mines is sales & marketing. My home would be the physical location for the business, so would this be difficult when it come down to reporting our incomes earned and taxation? As we don't live together & both have other jobs, this would just be a side income earning business. Thank you for your input!! Is this do-able? Thanks for the replies! Mrreliab we are brainstorming college students with no plans to do anything within the next 2 -3 years. Was interested in knowing if this was a do-able idea, didn't say we would do this next month, so we'll pay for professional advice when we get further along, but thanks for the info!!

29. Open Question: Something's up with my dad and I can't figure it out, but maybe I'm crazy?
Okay, okay I know this is going to sound like I'm high and living out of some badly scripted movie, but I'm the paranoid type. My dad works as a Financial Systems Analyst (fancy for accountant) for the Department of Defense. Anyway, the past few months he's been going on a lot more business trips than usual, like three times as many. He always gives me his hotel information in case of emergencies or if I need more money in my checking account or something. So one time I needed something, I called the hotel and requested him. They had no record of him staying at the hotel. Not only that, his four day trip turned into some mysterious eight day trip... and his phone wasn't turned on (straight to voicemail). Super creepy? Well it happened a few more times before I called his work and they assured me he was there and that he was just super busy in meetings or something (Government people...). Well, so he supposedly had a trip to San Fransisco and I called his hotel and guess what? He wasn't there! His cell phone was on, but he wasn't answering. I must have spent four or five hours calling every hotel in the area. ALL said he wasn't there. He has also been working a lot more. Usually he's home by 4 (unless he goes out with his friends or girlfriend), but he's been working till like 6 or 7 and not coming home till like 8. His girlfriend of 4 years broke up with him for working too much! On top of this, about a month ago this weird 866 number kept calling. A few times I answered and it was a woman (sounded black) in a very hushed voice, distressed voice. She would ask for my father. I would say the generic "He's not her right now, can I take a message?" She would just hang up. I called back a few times expecting some company, but it was a personal number. It was to some guy named guy, and when it went to voicemail it said that it couldn't take anymore messages as it was full. I told my dad and he said it was probably a solicitor or bill collector (except my dad isn't in any kind of debt). They continued to call and I would hear breathing and then the call would end. Sometimes I would answer and it would immediately end. Now the phone isn't even in service. I haven't heard from "them" in a week, so I was curious and tried to call them back. On top of all that I came home yesterday to find our house a complete wreck. It was ransacked. Nothing was stolen though! The intruder had taken stuff out of drawers and closets (my neatly organized closet TRASHED!) and thew it everywhere. I think that my dad is like a secret spy or something?! This sounds crazy, I know. But its really weird. I think that he's maybe an assassin or something top secret. I haven't found a secret room in our house yet (like in the movies), but IDK. My father also brought in a lot more money than his job pays him last year. I'm really nosy about his finances, which I know are none of my business. But his salary is public record. For 2009, a person on the General Schedule, Rank 14 (GS13), Step 3 makes a Base of 89,009. Then you have to multiple that by the local increase. For Cleveland that's 18.16%. This comes to a little over 105,000 (this is before the taxes and stuff). http://www.opm.gov/oca/09tables/html/gs.asp http://www.opm.gov/oca/09tables/html/cle.asp I tried telling my dad about the weird house break in, but he's on one of his "business trips" and I've left numerous voicemails. He's supposed to be back Monday, but for all I know he could be dead. I know this sounds extremely odd, but I'm so freaking worried I packed a suitcase and am staying at a friends. I'm scared, like for real. Could me dad be an assassin? In the movies don't they take the kids for hostage or they get axe murdered?? I'm only 16! I just got my first car and I want to go to college. I'm too young to die. I'm really worried about my dad =/ Why would he need to sell drugs? He makes good enough money. His ex girlfriend is a pretty good looking lady and they had been dating for 4 years?!? Why would his "new girlfriend" have our house ransacked? How do you know he's not adept or not? I don't know, but part of having a secret life is being able to hide it! I'm going to get axe murdered =C

32. Resolved Question: What would this form of government/lack thereof be?...?
I already know it is like communism but I think this particular idea of it might be called something else. 1.)everyone is equal regardless of race or age or religion the only determining factor in acquiring a job is ability if you are either Strong enough or smart enough or both you get the job on a first come first served basis and cash is eliminated as currency for Business stores/groceries etc are credit based and cards are also eliminated either fingerprint 7/or retinal scan no rfid chips because dumb asses think that's the mark of the beast but cash will still be used for interpersonal trade such as prostitution or in other situations where the thumbprint idea would not work such as collection plates or poker in a home you take the cash to the bank and it is credited if you want it to buy food at a restaurant you can creditt cash you have and much like direct deposit you work for money and it is credited to your account. 2.)If you are hurt or unable to work a strenuous job you get a living wage stipend this is taken from the surplus of the workers that don't spend all of there paycheck(in another way to say it giving to charity is not a choice it just happens.) 3)medicine and schooling is free within limits if you go to colledge and study a particular thing and later get a job in that field then the state pays for it if you study but don't get a job the state takes the cost out of 1/2 the pay from the job you do get and if you can't live on the other half they suppliment food rations (like food pantries today)with the current fda approved diet they give you stuff they have record you didn't buy with the 1/2 of your pay you do get. 4)age of concent is exactly that when the partners both say yes and no one is hurt. 5)any drug that you can't overdose on is free. 6) as said previously medicine is free but I also said to an extent if it is cureable they cure it if it's a fatal disease they let you live and help you out but if you want to/ask to die they provide euthenasia for you. 7)voting is obligatory there is no penalty for which way you vote but everyone is made to that way you can't bitch about it if your guy wins. 8)you must live with someone for a year beforehand if you want to marry them. 9)the government will assign you a job if you ask for one if you are big stong and dumb they give you demolition if you are big strong ans smart you are the supervisor smart and weak you get a computer or filing job small and stupid you get the jobs they give retards.(cause they get the stipend thing mentioned earlier unless they want to work then they get a job accourding to there ability. 10)clothing shall be free but if you are in need of free clothes you must accept a uniform like a jumpsuit. 11)If you/your family already owns a farm and you can sustain yourself your share is divided amount the rest you can get an odd job when you need.want something and get it on that or you can barter your produce or your farm can be and industrial operation and you can get your credits that way. O.K. now ask questions about certain situations and how my system would cover them I'll answer with additional details check back and edit your answer accourdingly thank you for your time to answer the question 1 it would be lead by a brain trust of the greatest intellectual minds and artistic people so that way it would be balanced The fingerprint scanner needs to sence that the finger is alive and attached to a bodyIt would be kinda like england with a royal family that creates laws and a government that desiminates them down to the people.The ruling/governmental body would be elected rule for life then when they die there is a presidential race and the people vote and that person rules for life and when they die people vot new guy it is kinda like how the pope system is only it is all the people not just the important ones the braintrust and the government would be two seperate entities but they govt. would be influenced by the braintrust and then the people would vot on the ideas they supply the presidents main job would be as ambassador and tiebreaker when votes are too close to call he is the desider he also has the authority to make laws (the people vote on them) and when they agree the law is put into affect if the people dissagree it is placed in an idea file and saved for a later date.Basically (I am calling him president but actually a king kinda) The king Rules and makes laws the people vote and it is put into effect.Under him (but with more power in practice less in title)is a group of great minds and great hearts to create and collaborate on ideas to help people out new sciences of agriculture and metalergy and medicine etc. then under them the individual what america would call the guy that runs the state I beleave senator they would take the news down to there town the governers of the cities they would in turn give the info to the mayors of towns and they would each hold an assembly in there respective towns and tell the people the news if no new laws were made that week there would be town business such as marriag announcements or births or deaths whatever happens to be local news that week sowe don't have newspapers to save paper. unless there is a 3rd answer before i get back and the question goes to voting give it to brandon.if there are only the 2 give it him more don't vote any.

35. Open Question: How to set a career path with cross functional experince?
I have had my degree from University of Hull in Business Management. I have done odd jobs from selling to running restaurant business. I had an internship in UK for selling and marketing. Due to financial constraints and hectic busy schedule in marketing, I shifted my career to retail business where I had an oppurtunity to work for a year's time and when i stood strong towards my career development I was a prey to petty politics that made me search for a sustainable job. I was lucky enough to get a job in HSBC bank in customer service where I did cashering and customer service for a year. It was a dream job to me as it exactly put me in the place I wanted to be. When I thought everything was going well...my student visa was getting expired and upon request to the management team.. I got little help as it was supposed to be converted from a student visa to a work permit.I had little knowledge to approach the home office to have a councelling about my state of affairs. Then i had no choise but to resign in the UK. My managers were good enough to offer me assistance in placing me in hyderabad, India in one of the global service centers. This then turned my career from front office operations to back office operations. While i felt secured with the organisation I had little scope for growth as I had, not well negotiated with the HR team for my skills and competencies. I was also into a financial glitch that gave me no choise to but accept the current offer and hand. This is a US process in collections. I have sustained myself in this job for five years with my going from a voice based environment to non-voice based environment. I have acquired wide knowledge in collections from A-Z (collections/skip work/pre-legal documentation)where a legal action is initiated and how well an account can be dealt to ensure the company does not loose its profit or atleast ensure the money lent is recovered. Hear let me remind you I have a B.com degree and a Masters degree in business management -I moved from sales to service-from retail to back end operations. I definetly know I need growth. I just want advice as to where I can exactly start. Please advice....

41. Resolved Question: My 6 yr old male cat has never left the house, he's purely an indoor cat, doesn't spray. Why neuter him?
I feel that everyone's post out there is to prevent cats from reproducing. My cat doesn't even like the outdoors much (we have to put him out in the garden and he likes to run back indoors), and has always been indoors. I've stopped giving him flea drops etc. I think vets don't understand me properly (maybe to them it's a business and they try to sell things, I mean I'm not going to take malleria tablets unless I travel, right?). Is there anyone out there who agrees? I want my cat to have a natural unaltered life because I believe it's not my decision to change something of his or deprive him in any way. In the wild, I know big cats or wild cats etc don't require this type of attention, it's the decision humans have imposed to control the number of cats. But as someone's already said, cats don't need to be put down, they can be re-homed. And I also see the points raised by others about how cat shelters cannot cope with growing numbers. I feed terrible to hear things about cats being put down. He's receiving his regular vaccinations, money's not an issue, his behaviour around the house has always been playful, he shows aggression against one his toys but that's the instinct of a cat. I've never seen him attack me or my family, he's loved by all of us so much, and I can't see how I should follow the general opinion of all cat lovers to neuter the little man... I do however hope that you can give me something to base my decision on. I want some guidance, even from those who are PRO-Neuter supporters, that if I let him continue to grow old, he doesn't spray, he's figured out that the whole home (he does scratch around) is his entire territory, then what risks do I have to bear, that there is a chance of the following two diseases that could naturally get any of us or any living thing naturally: 1) Prostate cancer 2) Testicular cancer I hope I've given a clear enough picture of my concern, and before I decide, I just want people's recommendations. It's not easy for me to decide because I'm an animal lover, against any cruelty towards animals and would be grateful to read each and everyone's thoughts before deciding on a way forward. You see I might already sound ANTI-Neutering, but unless someone can really justify the need for this procedure, I think I can say he'll get on fine? Please please please correct me if i'm wrong in any way. Many thanks in advance. Neilz

45. Resolved Question: Frustrated Engineers ... are you bored off your rockers or maybe thinking of a career change?
Hi, been in the work force less than two years and find my days to be well slow. Heck I remember pulling countless hours in labs and doing research at the end of college and thought it would be nice if it were slower in the work force. And boy is it slower. Put in my 8 hrs and go home, but the amount of work I do at work in 8 hours I could easily do in 2, especially if I work at the pace of my college years. And its mostly the same thing day in day out. By that I mean there are a lot of things of different natures, but you get used to it. I find myself sitting around at times thinking of going back to school, but for what? More engineering? Why? Is it really just for the money? Would it be better if we had a standard base salary with a larger performance/task completion differential? That would surely make things more interesting and exciting. Do any of you else feel undervalued or under challenged? I know I am not alone, friends (engineers) in other sectors also feel this way. At this point we are going the premed route, but for the sake of loyalty to the field, if nothing else, what other paths have you taken that seemed worth while, both in terms of money and satisfaction, both in interest and appreciation? Currently I'm on the management track and make in the 60k range with a ceiling in 10yrs of about 120k (Midwest region) fyi, if positions open up and I give a damn. Don't get me wrong I have the utmost respect for our field, but the business and management outside the our departments irritate me. -Deep down feeling I have been avoiding. I guess I don't want to figure this stuff out 20 yrs from now. Have anyone of you felt this way? What did you do or how did you accept the status quo?

49. Resolved Question: What should I add to my info...constantine I(long...but desperate...plus you can skim most of it)?
I have a powerpoint....what major info am i missing??? You can briefly skimm what I have...you don't have to read it all...but please help i have the title page then some info on who he is.... Constantine's original name was Flavius Valerius Constantinus, also known as Constantine the Great or Saint Constantine. He was an emperor and a military leader Constantine was famous for being the first Roman Emperor to profess Christianity. Constantine's support of religion helped transform it into the institution were it’d remain throughout the Middle Ages. then i said - Constantine raised with Christianity (which was NOT legal) to the status of a "permitted religion." He took a direct interest in matters of doctrine, setting a precedent for future emperors, and called the first Ecumenical Council of the Catholic Church (at Nicaea). He built churches after the pattern of Roman temples and public buildings. He also returned to the Christians the property they’d lost during the persecutions of his predecessors, and promoted and favored Christians in government jobs. His sponsorship of the religion made it suddenly advantageous to be a Christian. then i briefly explained why constantine is 'great' - ‘The Great' is a title given to Constantine I by the Roman Catholic Church in recognition of his role in establishing Christianity as the dominant religion in the Roman empire, the basic foundation for Christianity becoming the dominant world religion, particularly in the West, later on. then how he spred christianity Constantine was the first openly Christian Roman Emperor He popularized the slogan In Hoc Signo Vinces (In this Sign Conquer) the reference being to the sign of the Cross His soldiers had a cross on their shields then Although he is well known as the first Christian emperor. He allowed practice of all religions, Interestingly enough, he put both pagan and Christian symbols on his buildings and armor. then Constantine I never converted to Christianity himself. Most considered he was, but he wasn't baptized until 25 years later. Today, Constantine wouldn't count as a Christian without the baptism. A frequently asked question: Was the deathbed conversion of Constantine the act of a moral pragmatist? "Constantine was enough of a Christian to wait until his deathbed to be baptized. He knew that a ruler had to do things that were against Christian teachings, so he waited until he no longer had to do such things. That may be the thing that I most respect him for." - Kirk Johnson or a duplicitous hypocrite? "If I believe in the Christian god, but know that I will have to do things which are against the teachings of that faith, I can be excused for doing so by postponing baptism? Yes, I'll join Alcoholics Anonymous after this crate of beer. If that isn't duplicity and subscription to double standards, then nothing is." - Robin Pfeiffer A much debated question, but the impact of his actions on the succeeding history of the Church is beyond doubt. then Constantine first passed a law that Christianity would simply be tolerated. Later he made it the official faith of the Roman Empire, in the process standardizing the faith based mostly on the views of Paul. He himself converted only on his death bed. then Constantine looked at christian religion and christ as a war God and not God of love. He still loved to worship apollo. However, he stopped financing temples of other roman gods but appolo. It is known that christian believes were taken from the Torah. Even though a small part of Torah was taught by jesus. The ideas were full of humanity and civility especially for those times. Constantine was a revolutionary. then 313AD Constantine and Lucinius issue the Edict of Milan for the first time making Christianity legally equal to all other religions of the Empire. Hence, no more torture of Christians. 326AD Constantine kills his son, nephew, and his wife. 330 AD Constantine moves his capital to Byzantium later called Constantinople and now Istanbul strengthening the power of the Roman bishops over the Western Half of the Empire. then Under Constantine, any girl who ran away with her lover was burned alive. Any chaperone who should assist in such a matter had molten lead poured into her mouth. Rapists were burned at the stake. But also their women victims were punished, if they had been raped away from home, as they, according to Constantine, should have no business outside the safety of their own homes. then Crispus was suspected of having adulterous relations with his stepmother Fausta, and was therefore executed. Constantine's wife Fausta (who had remained a pagan) was executed on Constantine's orders by being suffocated in an overheated bath. Constantine had his son Crispus and his nephew Licinius Jr. jailed then killed. Thats all I have...I know I'm missing a sufficient amount of info....help please...what other stuff should I add, and where should i a dd it - I'm sorry for the length THANK YOU SO MUCH!

50. Resolved Question: Home based business question....Please read details (sorry, it's kind of long)...?
My fiance is currently working as a body shop technician (painter, etc) at a local body shop. For all intents and purposes, he is considered self-employed there. We live on 2 acres of land outside of town, and he (and I) are VERY interested in putting a body shop out here. The problem is, our land is zoned residential and not commercial. There is one specific account that my fiance has his eyes on "stealing" from his current employer. My fiance would have to undercut his current employers labor rates to get it, but even if he cuts his rates in HALF, he will still make a killing. The problem is, his current employer knows where we live, and also knows that we're only zoned residential, so if we put a shop in and start advertising it, he could have us closed up since we're not zoned right. My question is this: Could my fiance put up a shop, steal the account (by word of mouth only - no advertising), and "get away" with the zoning if he doesn't put a business sign up in the lot, or advertise in the newspaper, phone book, or on the radio? I know that home based businesses are allowed in residential areas and am trying to find a loophole that he'd fall into. Thanks in advance! I might have used the wrong term here...it's not really an account. It's just a VERY regular customer. I see nothing wrong with him "stealing the account", for lack of a better term. Businesses everyday try to offer goods and services at a lower cost than their competitors. What my fiance would actually be doing is nothing worse than Walmart selling a gallon of milk for 3 cents less than the price of Kroger's gallon of milk!
