Resolved Question: Why is Israel doing this and is it legal under international law?
1. Israel blocks over 50% of supply trucks headed for Gaza, causing mass malnutrition amongst people there. 2. Israel started blocking 75% of other goods headed for Gaza after Hamas was elected in 2008. 3. Israel blocks chocolate, jam, sage and coriander from entering Gaza. 4. Israel won't let parts to repair Gaza's power plant in so there are only half days of power there. 5. Israel won't let supplies enter Gaza to repair the sewage system so up to 95% of water there is unsafe for human consumption. 6. Israel blocks every export of goods from Gaza and as a result, 98% of industrial operations have close down there, causing further poverty. 7. Israel won't allow in medical equipment and supplies to restore Gaza's damaged health-care system. Even for someone with a bias in favor of Israel, isn't this every enough to be considered human rights violations? IMO, this is part of Israel's *non*military genocide campaign which is supplemented with force as necessary. It is also now known that IDF leaders have partnered with energy companies to extract natural gas from areas belonging to Gaza. This is one reason for the naval blockade, so people won't go out there and look Israelis pumping out Gaza's natural gas resources. http://www.alternet.org/world/147132/7_questions_for_defenders_of_israels_inhumane_siege_of_gaza Wow, what a bunch of intelligent responses so far.... NOT Shows that you are a little stumped on what to say.

Resolved Question: Is USA aid to Israel good for USA?
FIRST, IT’S important to remember that about 70 percent of the $3 billion aid must be used by Israel to purchase American military equipment. This provides real support for US high- tech defense jobs and contributes to maintaining our industrial base. This helps the US stay at the very top in the manufacturing of our possess cutting-edgemilitary munitions, aircraft, vehicles, missiles and virtually every defensive and offensive weapon in the US arsenal – with the added contribution of Israel’s renowned technical know-how. Second, the US and Israel are jointly developing state- of-the-art missile defense capabilities in the David’s Sling and Arrow 3 systems. These two technologies build on the already successful Arrow 2, jointly developed by our two countries, which is already providing missile defense security to Israel and US civilians and ground troops throughout the region. The knowledge the US gains from these efforts also has a positive multiplier effect on applications to other USmilitary and non-military uses and US jobs. Third, given Israel’s strategic location on the Mediterranean, with access to the Red Sea and other vital international shipping andmilitary lanes of commerce and traffic, it is critically important to the US that Israel continues to serve as a port of call for our troops, ships, aircraft and intelligence operations. Israel also has permitted the US to stockpile arms, fuel, munitions and other supplies on its soil to be accessed whenever America needs them in the region. Fourth, America’s special relationship with Israel provides the US with real-time, minute-to-minute access to one of the best intelligence services in the world: Israel’s. With Israeli agents gathering intelligence and taking action throughout the Middle East and, literally, around the world, regarding al- Qaida, Hizbullah, Iran and Hamas, among others, the US receives invaluable information about anti-US and terrorist organizations and regimes. Fifth, imagine the additional terrible cost in US blood, and the hundreds of billions more of American taxpayer dollars, if Saddam Hussein had developed nuclear weapons, or if Syria possessed them. http://www.jpost.com/Opinion/Op-EdContributors/Article.aspx?ID=172721 The writer is a Democratic congressman from New Jersey who serves on the home committees responsible for US military and foreign aid. This is not just any bias link! FOR ABOUT two percent of what the US spends in Afghanistan, Iraq and Pakistan this year, Americans can take pride in the return on our investment in aid to Israel. Yet, the ironic thing, that the aid benefits USA more than Israel. Why? because the aid comes with a lot of ignorant criticism. Of tax money used, welfare state... USA helps Pakistan - because Pakistan is a government-for-rent -- almost literally. Iraq & Afghanistan -- because we invaded those countries and have to pay the bill. Other Arabs countries - for political reasons with much limited return. "But it is pretty much a subsidy for the US arms industry" -- exactly. US subsidy that translates into "economic multiplier" - Finally some potentially intelligent Arguments from Anti-Israel groups. The unifying criticism of USA aid. "Is that the money can be used for better purposes. " Here is why this is a weak argument. #1. USA already spends much more money on other things. Foreign Aid to other countries - with less returns. Wars in Iraq, Pakistan, Afghanistan. #2 Domestically, Wall road bailout, Sub-Prime mortgage bailout, Many more social programs. It can also print more money -- and it does. #3 There is no evidence that the money can be used better for something else. There is evidence on returns from investing in Israel I can arrive-up with better criticism of USA aid -- but i can also arrive-up with even better refutations

Resolved Question: Piercings and removal of wisdom teeth...?
I'm getting my wisdom teeth taken out in a week. When I went for my consultation, I had to take out my piercings for the x-rays. The only piercings of mine that I'm concerned about are my tongue, industrial, and lower cartilage piercings. I haven't been able to unscrew the ball yet on my industrial (though I've had it for almost 2 years), so I couldn't take it out for the x-ray, but it was alright. I put my lower cartilage piercing back in as soon as I could, but not my tongue because my mom was with me and she definitely wouldn't approve of it (Haa, I know). Anyway, it was out for about an hour and I had to work with it for a few minutes to receive it back in. To my understanding, I need to take out every my piercings for the procedure of removing my wisdom teeth, even earrings in my lobes, and nose. Personally, the only two that seem to make sense to take out is my tongue and vertical labret since that's the area that will be worked upon, but I'm assuming that the metal may conflict with some equipment used? Anyway, I'm just wondering how long it would take for my industrial and tongue to actually close up? I'm not worried about me being physically capable of getting any other piercings back in right away other than my tongue, since I know I'm going to be pretty out of it afterwords. I guess the surgery is about 45 minutes to an hour... and I'm just really worried about my piercings closing up. :/ I've had my: Industrial- Almost 2 years Tongue- 3 months Lower cartilage- Year and a half Vertical Labret- Almost 2 years Nose- 3 years Lobes- Not worried about those closing up Let's be friends. I post questions like this in search of ass holes like you.

Resolved Question: Would this be the greatest truth Obama could say tonight?
"Ladies and gentleman, the wars and its funding, like other contracts, are a rather complicated form of money laundering. We give aid to nations based on our corporate interests.

Esentially folks, your tax dollars receive laundered to the Helicopter company via the Columbian government. "The war in Iraq was a trillion going into the hands of the Military Industrial Complex. Of that trillion only 20 billion of it went towards reconstructing Iraq, with nearly 10% of that lost and the relax vastly mismananged and unaccounted for. The costs for the surge in Afghanistan is 1 million per US Soldier for the year for a total of 33 billion USD. Yet each soldier only receive roughly 40k, you do the math.

Resolved Question: Landlord will not reimburse me? PLEASE HELP!?
Two days ago the sewage system in my apartment complex caused water damage in my bathroom. I notified the property manager and she sent over a plumbing company. The company fixed the pipes and put 2 industrial dryers and 1 massive humidifier to dry out the bathroom. The plumber told me to leave it running for 72 hours. I asked him if I would be reimbursed for every of the energy the humidifier and dryers used. He told me the landlord would do that. My boyfriend came home later that night and turned every the equipment off, saying it was unnecessary. The next morning we leave for my dentist appointment. When I returned home I found the equipment to be plugged in and running. I understand maintenance is allowed to arrive into my apartment but it really annoys me when they do that because you really can't trust people. I went to the main office to talk to the property manager about this and she said they had every right. So I then asked her if she was going to reimburse me for the utility costs of the equipment. She blatantly told me "no." I said " So let me receive this straight, these old apartments are having leaking problems and I have to pay for the energy used to run the equipment for you to repair the damages?" She then gave me a snarky answer, "Have you read the lease?" By this time I was so mad I went home and read through the lease and it read: "We may change or install utility lines or equipment serving the apartment if the work is done reasonably without substantially increasing your utility costs." So with that I returned to her office and asked what she thought a substantial increase was. She told me around 25$. I was outraged. My utility bill normally costs 50$ and she thinks it's okay to have my utility bill go up 50 percent in three days. The equipment altogether runs about 3000 watts an hour and when I mentioned that to her she said "Oh that's not a lot." I told her that this was unfair and she told me that for my information, it was up to her discretion as to whether she would reimburse me or not. I nodded my head ok, returned to my apartment and unplugged every of the equipment. My question is: Is there anyway I can legally make her reimburse me for the energy costs, and will I receive in trouble for unplugging the equipment? I'm sorry but I can barely afford food, let alone and extra 25$ for energy I didn't use. Oh, and I live in Orlando FL.

Open Question: can muslims overthrow the US government?
. MURFREESBORO, Tenn. – Federal investigators said Friday that a suspicious flame that damaged construction equipment at the site of a future mosque in Tennessee was arson and offered a $20,000 reward for information leading to an arrest. The blaze frightened members of the Islamic middle of Murfreesboro, which has found its plans to build a new mosque drawn into a fierce debate surrounding a proposed Islamic community middle two blocks from Manhattan's ground zero. Firefighters had said there was a strong odor of diesel from the flame that engulfed the cab of a dump truck last weekend, and authorities found fresh fuel pooled below a second dump truck, according to an incident report from the Rutherford County Sheriff's Department. The Islamic middle of Murfreesboro has outgrown its current rented space in an industrial park. Members got approval to build a new mosque in May. Since then opposition to the building has made international news, with some opponents saying they fear Muslims want to overthrow the U.S. government

Resolved Question: MBA vs Masters in Supply Chain - Industrial Engineer?
Hello everyone I am an Industrial Engineer ... one who is concerned with improving processes via people and/or equipment. I either want to become an efficiency consultant or just move up the corporate ladder (probably on the production improvement side). Now the question ... MBA vs Masters in Supply Chain? Both would be from a highly regarded school. Best example so that we can keep the bases equal: MIT has an excellent MBA and Masters in logistics (and supply chain) program Michigan Ross also has both programs and is a highly regarded school. Although the programs cost the same, the masters in supply chain is half the time, so there is definitely a difference in opportunity cost. Which one is better for my career path, can you still become an executive with only a masters in supply chain without an MBA? And anyone have information on their salaries? Alyas ... I want to receive into supply chain and process improvement, I even recently got my green belt in six sigma and will soon start my blackbelt. However, most of those jobs are asking for an MBA, although thats probably because MS in supply chain are rather new, and most people formally asking for them yet.

Resolved Question: HOW IS THIS ACCOUNTING PROBLEM DONE I HAD ACCT BUT FORGOT HOW TO DO THIS HELP!?
Tyler Smith has worked in an upholstery store for 10 years. Last year, Tyler’s wages were $20,000. Lately, Tyler has been unhappy with the store’s owner. Convinced that he could run an upholstery store that did better work at a lower cost, Tyler decided to go into business for himself and opened CLASSIC UPHOLSTERY store. He started the business by investing $20,000 of his possess funds into the business, a sole proprietorship. To receive the business going, Tyler decided to invest heavily in advertising. He spent $6,000 on advertising aimed at consumers and another $2,000 on advertising aimed at getting work from interior decorators and interior design stores. Tyler also purchased industrial sewing machines costing $4,000 and other tools and equipment costing $3,000. He estimated that the sewing machines can be used for about 5 years before maintenance costs will be too high and the machines will need to be replaced. The other tools and equipment are not as durable and will have to be replaced in 3 years. At the end of the first year of business, Tyler had received $80,000 in cash from customers for upholstery work. Tyler was owed another $2,500 from customers who are not required to pay cash, but are billed every 30 days. A review of Tyler’s checkbook shows he paid the following expenses (in addition to those mentioned previously) during the first year of business: Upholstery fabric $40,000 Other supplies 10,000 Wages----part-time assistant 9,500 Rent 4,800 Insurance (2-year policy) 3,200 Utilities 2,500 Miscellaneous expenses 1,700 Tyler’s utility bill for the last month of the year has not arrived. He estimated that the bill will be approximately $320. Tyler keeps some stock of upholstery fabric in popular colors on hand for customers who do not want to wait for special-order fabric to arrive. At the end of the year, about $14,000 of the fabric purchased during the year was in his store stock. In addition, $2,300 in supplies had not been used. HOW MUCH PROFIT DID TYLER MAKE IN HIS FIRST YEAR OF BUSINESS? (Hint: Prepare an Income Statement!) DO YOU THINK IT WAS A GOOD IDEA TO OPEN THE UPHOLSTERY store, OR WOULD TYLER BE BETTER OFF WITH HIS OLD JOB?

Resolved Question: Can you take this information and turn it into a speech?
Can you turn this into a speech for me? Product: The Eco-spray and Paper Flattener Raw Materials: corn, wheat or sugar beet for biodegradable spray bottle and for the Paper Flattener. This is made out of Poly Lactic Acid (PLA) that comes from the starch of wealthy plants such as sugar beet, corn and wheat. This goes through a fermentation and condensation process to create the Poly Lactic Acid. Ink removable spray substance (Eco-spray) is to be invented. Power source: Any source of energy will do. We can use electricity from nuclear energy, solar energy, fossil fuels, wind energy or whatever to run laboratory equipment. As a result we can use the kinetic energy of the wind to create clean energy for the laboratory equipment/processing. Transportation: Since we decided to have every of the manufacturing process and distribution stores to be in Canada, the best and cheapest way to distribute them is by Transport trucks. This way we can transport raw materials to our manufacturing industry and taking the finished product to different franchised stores. Location: These are the factors of where we should locate our factory and why: 1.Close to where we receive our raw materials for the product – If our factory is close the locations in which we receive the raw materials, than the distance of transporting it to the factory would be closer. This way we can keep money and time by transporting it a shorter distance rather than long. 2.Sufficiently windy places exposed high areas, like hills or tiny mountains for wind turbines to create energy for factory – To create energy for the factory we need wind turbines close the factory. Therefore the location of the factory should be open high areas for enough wind to create energy. 3.close roads for transport trucks to arrive in and out of the factory area – It would be easier to have roads close the factory so the raw materials can be transported directed to the factory, rather than having people move them from a far distance to the factory. close water so ships can easily distribute product to other countries. 4.On industrial land – this is where land/property is usually less expensive since we need a vast amount of land. It is important to locate the factory on industrial land and not residential land, so it is not populace. Benefits of spray and paper flattener: 1.Environmentally friendly 2.Can reuse same paper continuously 3.Spray bottle and paper flattener has better strength than plastic/acrylic material 4.The material is the same price as regular material 5.Spray bottle and paper flattener does not decompose instantly but will in direct contact with 100% renewable resource such as soil and with decompose in 100 days

Resolved Question: What is the point of having troops and military bases in South Korea?
The reason I ask is because North Korea is not a threat. North Korea’s million-man army may look impressive on paper, but remember that Iraq had a million-man army, which also had modern equipment, combat experience, and plenty of fuel. In contrast, North Korean soldiers suffer from malnutrition and rarely train due to a scarcity of fuel and ammo. Most North Korean soldiers could not attack because they are needed to defend the entire DMZ and coastal approaches (they remember the 1950 landing at Inchon) while entire divisions must remain throughout North Korea to fend off heliborne offensives, food riots, and probable coups On the other hand, the entire 700,000 man South Korean active duty army can be devoted to the defense of Seoul. The modern South Korean army is backed by over 5,000,000 well-trained reservists who can be called to duty in hours. South Korea has twice the population of the North, thirty times its economic power, and spends three times more on its military each year. South Korean military equipment is first class whereas most of the North Korean military equipment is over 30 years old and much is inoperable due to a lack of maintenance. If war broke out, South Korea has a massive industrial capacity and $94 billion in foreign currency reserves to sustain a war, while North Korea has no industry and no money. As a result, South Korea is roughly five times more powerful than North Korea. South Korea could crush North Korea in a war without our help. North Korea's military equipment that date back to the 1950,60,70s,80s which are Soviet obsolete weapons system that are not properly maintained. North Korea is unstable and could commit suicide by attacking South Korea. North Korea attacking south Korea would be like a bully punching a man in the face that has a loaded gun. So if every of this is true,why do we have military bases in South Korea then? South Korea has mined and built concrete fortifications along the mountainous DMZ to make a rapid breakthrough impossible. More importantly, China and Russia trade heavily with South Korea and provide no help to the fragile regime in the North. I mean arrive on there is a Burger King on the DMZ. So what is the point of having troops there? Many of you guys make very good points. But technology wise they lag behind. South Korea has military that is just as big as North Korea and better trained. Yes they would use a lot of arty on Seoul but in the end they would be smashed,crushed and defeated in a another war. Maybe I need to reserch more but South Korea is five times more powerful then NK.

Resolved Question: Why do construction workers do this?
Today I ran into a ton of this, and it drove me nuts. Why is it, that when there is a project on a freeway, that they block off 20 miles of freeway so they can work on a stretch that is 20 feet long? I-80, which is one of the most traveled freeways in the midwest (I did Colorado to Illinois today, ugggh), has some pretty horrendous road construction going right now. There are several locations where they have the entire freeway put down to a single lane, for 20-30 miles at a time. You can go the entire 30 miles, and not look a single worker. You will not look any damage to the road, nor any equipment suggesting something has happened to the road. It is just flat out blocked off. When they do this, it really makes drivers want to speed through their cones at mach 3 due to no real reason it is blocked off at every. The only reason they don't is for fear of the cops laying down a $300+ speeding ticket for double priced tickets in work zones. Being an Industrial Engineer, I focus every of my work on efficiency. Those civil/construction boys have it every jacked up if they believe what they are doing is the best method. Why wouldn't you focus more on completeing smaller sections of road at a time quickly instead of blocking off several sections slowly? Any able to shine some light on to this sillyness?

Resolved Question: Is it common for people to get PTSD from Heath and Safety videos, why aren't they parental guidence rated?
Nobody should ever have loose clothing close industrial equipment. EVER. I have seen some scary things on the internet, but none of these compare to what they show is in SCHOOL of every places. It's so disturbing and it cannot be unseen. These same people would not let below 18's watch scary fake films or sex before 9pm on TV... yet I have watched sex education videos at 10 in the morning and people being sucked into factory machines as compulsory. This is mainly just :O waffle, as I am traumatised now. How can I unsee this video they just made me watch, I feel unwell.

Voting Question: How come the stock market has not reached a record high of over 14,600 under Bush?
Economic worries prompted in part by the less than stellar existing-home sales reports have carried into the day’s trading. Stocks fell during the first half of action today and as of mid day, the Dow Jones Industrial Average, S&P 500 and the Nasdaq were slipping. Headline news in the market today relates to sales reports of new built homes in July. Numbers for new built homes fell 12% in July according to the Commerce Department. This report reveals that the sales for new built homes are lower than expected and the market in general for housing is weaker than previously estimated. As of 10:50am on Wednesday the 25th, the Dow Jones Industrial Average was at 9989.06 in the red .51%. The Nasdaq was at 2113.32 in the red .49%. The S&P 500 was in the red at 1044.72 down .68% and the Russell 2000 was in the red .65% at 591.70. Strong sectors posting are education services. Weak sectors are electronic manufacturing; home entertainment software; coal and consumable fuel; steel; automakers; car parts and equipment. U.S. stocks are falling and fears persist about the recovery of the American economy. every of this has created a rally of such with some precious metals. The anxiety over the slow recovery fueled a recent rise in precious metal’s price. A rebound for this afternoon is in store but many know that the housing market data has a way of creating trends. http://www.learningandfinance.com/2010/08/25/today%E2%80%99s-stock-market-dow-jones-industrial-average-dji-sp-500-nasdaq-russell-2000-index-trends-notes-august-25th-mid-day/ But but but its Bush's fault of course, of course they FAIL to point out that Nancy Pelosi and her Cabal of liberal loons had power in Congress since 2006, and the liberal loons fail to look that Obama is going into his THIRD year and the Market STILL has not rebounded with his spending spree of supposed stimulus plans

Resolved Question: What would you do in these circumstances?
I just finished school (graduate in industrial mechanics) and I just started a new job in this field of work. But the problem is that I have little to no practical experience. So when my boss gives me a job, I give it a try and I ask questions when I am not sure what I am doing. And here's the thing, I often screw up. I make mistakes and I damage equipments I am supposed to fix, which annoy my boss very much. Here's my dilemma : I want to learn and gain experience, but I don't want my coworkers to do the job for me. At the same time, I want to try new things and take some risks to gain confidence and experience. But I hesitate to ask to many questions (I don't want to be seen as an annoying young men who just got out of school and doesn't know anything). Has anybody ever been in this situation? How did you handle it?

Resolved Question: What's with these weird dreams?
I have some extremely weird dreams sometimes, with weird themes, and weird things happening. For one, has anyone ever had one person suddenly "become" another while in a dream? For instance, you start off with a total stranger, but eventually - you realize it's a pal of yours... like a familiar face replaces the unfamiliar one? Here's an example of a very odd dream I had recently. I was walking through the woods, and I heard someone call me. I looked up and saw a guy, about 45 years old, wearing a FOX News cap. He was standing next to a chain link fence that was bent to the ground at one point, leaving a 15-20 foot gap where anyone could just walk over it. The height of the fence indicated it was for industrial purposes. One the other side of the fence was what looked like a huge maintenance garage, used to store municipal equipment like road cleaners and dump trucks. The garage door was opened, but no one else was around. I approached the man in the FOX News cap, and he asked me to help him with a Fox News Exclusive. He wanted to sneak into this building, and prove how easy it was to receive past government security. I agreed to help. We entered the building, and it was pretty dirty, as any garage would be. There were some men inside in army uniforms, but they did not notice us, as they were around a corner, and behind some equipment. There was a beat up, old black safe on the floor. The Fox News guy opened the safe on one side, and there was really nothing of interest in it... just some dirty papers (as in, papers with dirt on them) and old keys. On the other side of the safe, was another door. I attempted to open it, and found it was close, but not locked. I found cash inside, stacks and stacks of 100 dollar bills... 100 bills in each wrap.. I counted 8 wraps across, two wraps deep, six wraps high... plus four more loosely tossed on the top... Now here's one really odd thing... I said "there must be a million dollars here" - and doing out the math, it was exactly one million dollars. Not sure if it's coincidence, but I do seem to notice a LOT of details in dreams... I wonder if I subconsciously calculated "a million dollars" for the purpose of the dream, or I just guessed exactly right... ??? Anyway, I also noticed the money was US currency, but it looked and felt different. It had a dry, inky feeling to it, as if handling it would leave a residue on your fingers, and for some reason, it was blue instead of green. At this point, the dream got a little blurry, but I was with a pal, and we were talking about the money, and how we should "go back for it". This is another weird thing, which I mentioned earlier... the "Fox News Guy" ceased to exist, and instead, it was my pal who had been there with me. We determined that there was needy security, the safe was unguarded, and we could never receive caught. The dream got blurry again, but we went back and got the money, and we were suddenly $1M richer. At this point, we went back to an office, and we were discussing what to do with the money, when I realized we couldn't use it at every... because it was blue. Who would accept blue money, and even if they did, once the money started circulating, there would be an investigation that would trace it back to us. After much panic, and fear of getting caught, we decided to toss the money in the ocean. :(
