Because I want to know what its called so I know what its called when I'm shopping, and that type of borad is great for me, I ride both ways.For snowboards what does ';true twin'; mean? Is it the same as dual directional?
Here is the difference between directional, directional twin, and true twin:
A directional board will have a softer nose and a stiffer tail, and the nose will be slightly wider than the tail. Also, the stance will be set back, so you are not centred on your board. This is the easiest shape to ride powder in, but is not that great for park riding.
Both a true twin and a directional twin will be shaped the same on both ends. Tip and tail will be the same, and the stance will be centered.
The difference will be in the flex. A true twin will have the same flex on tip and tail, while a directional twin will have a stiffer tail and a softer nose.
A directional twin will suit most riders better than a true twin. A true twin is best for straight park riding.
EDIT: One more thing, for switch riding, it doesn't really matter if you have a directional twin or a true twin for just riding. It will make a difference when jumping switch due to the differences in flex, which is why true twins are best for park riding. Directional twins and true twins are the same shape. The difference is in the flex, not the shape.For snowboards what does ';true twin'; mean? Is it the same as dual directional?
a true twin means the boards nose and tail are exactally the same, other boards are called ';directional twins'; that means that there is a front and back of the deck, True twins are great for park, as riding switch will be easier with the nose and tail the same

In Accounting, What does ';True-Up'; mean?
I have to do a building use fee true up journal entry at work and I just want to better understand what I'm doing. I don't feel like asking because I think I should already know what it means and I don't any one to think I'm stupid.
Thanks! Appreciate your help!In Accounting, What does ';True-Up'; mean?
It means to bring to the correct balance. For instance, if you calculated total building fees to be 100K for the year, but only have a debit balance of 85K in the building fees account, you would have to make an entry of 15k to ';true-up'; the balance. I could be wrong, but that's how we use the term where I work.

What exactly does tell people the truth but never give them your true thoughts mean?
Tell them half truths Or don't give it all away..What exactly does tell people the truth but never give them your true thoughts mean?
When people ask for info. tell them the truth. Don't reveal your emotional/controversial thoughts. In other words learn to be objective. If you can't, then, say nothing if you have nothing good to say.What exactly does tell people the truth but never give them your true thoughts mean?
It means that one must be diplomatic. Diplomacy is saying, ';When I look at you, time stands still';, when what you mean is, ';Your face could stop a clock';.
i HAVE NO IDEA. i TELL YOU LIKE IT IS. IT WORKS FOR ME. AND i DO NOT HAVE TO KEEP TRACK OF MY LIES.credit union

What does it mean to place inclusion symbols to make an equation true?
I'm confused and I'm searching for it on Google and it didn't bring up any good clear results.
In my math workbook, it says to place inclusion symbols to make each equation true.
Example: 27+5x8-6=37What does it mean to place inclusion symbols to make an equation true?
It means this: 27 + [5 X (8 - 6)] = 27 + [5 X 2] = 27 + 10 = 37.

What does the ';True Node'; mean?
I heard that it has something to do with life lessons. Can it also have to do with being influenced/learning from other people with your true node sign? My true node is Gemini and I was wondering what that might mean : )What does the ';True Node'; mean?
The North Node and South Node of the Moon are points that are directly opposite each other. Together, they form the Nodal Axis. They are not planetary bodies; rather, they are mathematical points that take into account the relationship between the Sun, Moon, and Earth at the time of our birth. More specifically, the Moon's nodes are the points where the Moon's orbit intersect the plane of the ecliptic.
The Nodes of the Moon represent points of personal karmic imbalance. The North Node represents the kinds of experiences that we must work to develop in order to work with our karma, and to grow spiritually. The South Node represents those experiences and qualities that come naturally to us, that are over-developed, and that we tend to fall back on. The South Node can be a point of undoing unless we develop the North Node experiences and qualities. Thus, consciously working on these ';life lessons'; can bring us to increased happiness and fulfillment. If we over-emphasize and fall back on the qualities of our South Node, at the expense of developing our North Node, we may have a difficult time feeling personally successful.
Well, with North Node in Gemini, our South Node is in Sagittarius.
A tendency to hold beliefs and opinions without gathering the facts, to being self-righteous and running roughshod over others' feelings, to rushing through life and possessing excess nervous energy, and to lack tact in our relationships with others are some of the issues this position suggests. With this position, we easily crack under imagined pressures, and we are too often in a hurry for fear that our freedom will be curtailed if we stop long enough to gather facts and consider the details of everyday life. We need to learn to listen to others so that we discover the value of true communication and exchange, and to see both sides of a situation instead of throwing out dogma at others. We want to have meaningful and intelligent exchanges with others, and we want to teach others as well. But in order for us to succeed with these things, we need to learn that true learning and exchanges can only come when we listen to others. Learning to slow down, to be sensitive to social graces and networks, and to sensitize ourselves to others' needs and communications without fear of being tied down, will release us from some of our nervous tension and help us achieve more happiness and inner balance. Kiss*;)What does the ';True Node'; mean?
North/ True Node in Gemini.
With North Node in Gemini, our South Node is in Sagittarius. With North Node in the third house, our South Node is in the ninth house.

What is the true meaning of Easter? What does it mean to you?
Also, do you celebrate it?What is the true meaning of Easter? What does it mean to you?
It represents Birth - Spring - Life - That is where the Egg comes in - for Birth - and the Bunny because they have a lot of sex - Fertility - It let the ancients know it was time to start planting the crops. In Greece - the woman used to paint their bodies and go and hide - and when the men found them - they would have orgies - - We go on easter egg hunts - they went on easter leg hunts.
My kids and I celebrate it by planting our Garden. I let them boil eggs and hunt for them as well. Since it is pretty chilly today - I guess we will just make sure the soil is loose and all the weeds are out - I will need to check the PH balance as well!What is the true meaning of Easter? What does it mean to you?
To me, Easter is a time to think about Jesus and everything that his life and death means to me.
I celebrate it by sleeping, praying, reading my bible and going to church. Simple
feels like any sunday except more religious tv shows on more channels. it means i need to go out and get a pie and eat it.
i like pie
chocolate, a good breakfast and a couple of days off.
Jesus was tried for doing nothing more then the Will of His Father, he was beaten, he was scuffed, he was pierced, his hands and feet were nailed to a wooden cross, a crown of thorns was placed upon his head and he was crucified for the sins of the world but on the Third Day the tomb was empty. Jesus arose from the grave defeating death, hell and the grave and now sits at the right hand of God the Father. That's it in a nutshell.
It's true meaning is in the pagan rites of Spring. The Goddess Eostre is honored. Her totem is a hare (bunny) and her symbol is an egg, which is the symbol of new life and abundance.
I most definitely celebrate it. I am a pagan.
The egg of Winter joined with the Spermatozoon of Spring.
It represents the rebirth of the Christ consciousness in us all.
When this Consciousness is in control , we can live a more Christ-like life with confidence , strength, faith ,discernment, and all of the other attributes of the 12 Apostles . Jesus was here to show that even when the physical body is sacrificed on the cross of physicality, the soul continues to exist.
Check out Unity School of Christianity for more on the metaphysical aspects of Easter.
I get a day off work but other than that it isn't of any importance to me.
It highlights the forgiveness of my sin through The Christ Jesus. The forgivness of sin by Jesus is an awesome gift of God.
We are are wonderfully happy on this day for what Jesus has done for all of us.
I observed the Memorial of Jesus Christ last Monday 2nd April which coincided with the Jewish Passover which was the appropriate time when Jesus asked to keep doing these things in rememberance of him.
Easter is not a day I observe because of it pagan influences and a shares the time when pagan cults will also celebrate their worship of the fertility goddess.
The true meaning of Easter is to celebrate Christ's resurrection. To me it means we have been blessed beyond believe to be here on earth. My family most definitely celebrates it.

I have dreams that come true what does this mean?
I have dreams that come true later in life they happen just as i dream them even the smallest details are there. I dream in color dont remember all my dreams. does this happen with alot of people?I have dreams that come true what does this mean?
A complex question. Many people dream in color or the most emotionally charged aspect of the dream is in color. most of us do not recall all of our dreams or even all of one dream.
In your dreams you may be working on solutions that you realize soon in your waking life. With the passage of time you may be in a situation that triggers a ';recollection'; of a dream in the same fashion that deja vue works. Dreams acting as wishes can become self-fulfilling prophecies that we ';make'; happen without being aware of it.
If you really have a pipeline to the future dream up the next lottery winners and contact me before the drawing鈥擨'd be willing to share.I have dreams that come true what does this mean?
First let me say that dreams do come true in many ways. But you have to know that what you feel is a TRUE dream coming true can be different in many ways.
Example: You dream that you father will lose his job and the next day it happens. It could because you heard something that put that thought in your head or you have a gift.
Or :
You dream a train going from X place to X place will hit a white car on the tracks and the tag number is XXXX . But you don't know where the train is or who the person was that was in the car that is a GIFT that hurts.
I know, I dream things I can not change or help.
To be a gift is something you want and can use in your life. But when you dream of a child being killed and have no way to stop it that is a real life nightmare.
Good Luck
I dreamed that my sister was dying of ovarian cancer, and I documented it that morning. I didn't tell her until she was on her death bed, dying of ovarian cancer. She said she wouldn't have taken me seriously anyway, but I have a lot of guilt over it.
I dream in color. Keep a dream journal by your bed and write down your dreams when you awake, whether in the middle of the night or in the morning, the sooner the better. You will be amazed when you have a couple hundred dreams to look at, and see the re-occurring patterns. Very few of my dreams come true but they all mean something.
A person鈥檚 life is full of dreams. Dream can be about one鈥檚 ambition which he gets fulfilled with the passage of time thru his own hard work, intelligence, good planning and with the blessings of Almighty. Another is day dreaming which is really not a good habit and can be controlled with one鈥檚 will power. But what about the dreams a person experiences during sleep. Do they hv effect in our real life? What do they mean? What is their interpretation? The person asks to his friends, elders and seniors in his social circle. Sometimes he gets satisfactory reply and sometimes not. These days Internet is a rich source of information. So one does not need to depend on others for one鈥檚 dream interpretation. The Yahansmaniac Community member suggests the following.

Maybe it is a dasavue. That happens to every one. You dream it and then it happens. Go into detail and maybe we can talk
I feel the same way. I dream sometimes of traveling the world and I hope to do just that.
You're psychic.
it happens with me sometimes. i think that it is a gift and i actually appreciate that gift. like i will have a dream about one of my kids falling on the playground and the next day that is what happens. i have also had some about my grandmother dying and such. just know that it is a gift and you should cherish it
Good for you! Keep a journal. Seek knowledge through your dreams. Don't be afraid of it. I use to have waking dreams. I ask that that be taken away. It was to scary for me. I continued by having nite dreams. You can make a conscious request to remember in more detail or while you are dreaming make note of details as soon as you wake in your journal. Most people have not developed this ability and can't do it. You are Psychic.
I know exactly what you mean i somtimes think that i hav done somthing or seen somthing and i swear i had dreamted it.
It means you had a premonition.

';What does true patriotism mean to you?';?
I HAVE TO RIGHT A 1500 WORD ESSAY ON THE MEANING OF PATRIOTISM, AND I KIND OF NEED A LITTLE HELP. I JUST DON'T NEED SENTENCES OR WORDS BUT IN DEPTH MEANING';What does true patriotism mean to you?';?
Well, I'm not going to write your essay for you, but I've always found that a good quote can go a long way. Here are some quotes on patriotism:
';Each man must for himself alone decide what is right and what is wrong, which course is patriotic and which isn't. You cannot shirk this and be a man. To decide against your conviction is to be an unqualified and excusable traitor, both to yourself and to your country, let men label you as they may.'; - Mark Twain
';Patriotism is your conviction that this country is superior to all others because you were born in it.'; - George Bernard Shaw
';Do not... regard the critics as questionable patriots. What were Washington and Jefferson and Adams but profound critics of the colonial status quo?'; - Adlai Stevenson
';Nationalism (patriotism) is an infantile disease. It is the measles of mankind.'; - Albert Einstein
';Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel.'; - Samuel Johnson
And my personal favorite:
';Patriotism is supporting your country all the time, and your government when it deserves it.'; - Mark Twain
I hope that helps. Good luck on your essay!';What does true patriotism mean to you?';?
The word true is important in the phrase. True Patriotism isn't just waving a flag in front of your house, or knowing the words to the National Anthem. True Patriotism is a feeling that you would do anything out of the pride you have in your heart for your country.
oh yeah i had to do that when i was in school. i thought it was bullshit. they make you write about why your an american patriot. what if your not? i mean i think you should be able to choose your own topic. they cant make you write about something you dont believe can they?

What is the point of getting good grades in college? I mean, the term ';Ds get degrees'; is really true?
I get good grades but can't figure out why. Why not just party if at the end of four years, I will get the same degree as someone who has gotten straight Ds all throughout their college career. What's the point!?What is the point of getting good grades in college? I mean, the term ';Ds get degrees'; is really true?
Actually, you need to maintain at least a C average to remain enrolled, so you can't get all D's, and you need C's or better in your major. And if you want to go to grad or professional school, you need a much better GPA. Also, many employers DO ask for your GPA and determine whether or not you'll get a job based on that, especially in the technical fields where your classes directly pertain to your job.
But if you're just trying to get that manager job at the mall or become a prison guard, go ahead and waste all that money you spent on lousy grades.What is the point of getting good grades in college? I mean, the term ';Ds get degrees'; is really true?
eri's reasoning is flawed, in most majors, even if you get good grades, you still won't be able to land a job. that's why the country's educational system is poor, go to school in taiwan instead
Because in reality, the thing you get from college that allows you to get hired is not the degree. The degree just just is there to tell everyone else that you have four more years of education. If you get D's you probably aren't learning the material. Thusly, you will get hired just as likely as someone who got strait A's, but promotions aren't based on degrees, they're based on personal merit and-having learned nothing from college-you won't have that.
Here in lies the difference:
D's get the degrees...but not jobs. OR they get jobs, but then get fired when their employers realize they have no idea what they're doing.
So they scraped by on the bare minimum during college and passed, no problem. But in the workforce, you have to know what you're doing. And are they going to? Probably not. The kids who got As and studied the coursework will know what they're doing, and they'll get the job. They'll keep it too.
D's may get degrees, but D's don't get into graduate school.credit union
Actually, you need to maintain at least a C average to remain enrolled, so you can't get all D's, and you need C's or better in your major. And if you want to go to grad or professional school, you need a much better GPA. Also, many employers DO ask for your GPA and determine whether or not you'll get a job based on that, especially in the technical fields where your classes directly pertain to your job.

A lot of my dreams are coming true, what does it mean?
I usually have the dream and then it actually happens a few weeks later. Kind of like the whole Abraham Lincoln thing. I know I don't have like powers or anything but I think it's pretty coincidental. Help?A lot of my dreams are coming true, what does it mean?
Good i hope you dream of winning the lottery.............A lot of my dreams are coming true, what does it mean?
What are the numbers for Saturday's Powerball drawing?
All kidding aside, you are having premonition dreams...you are making things happen! You don't need help, you need encouragement.
K
I would recommend you take your dreams more seriously.
maybe your dreams have been comming true
because you probley believe in your self
and believe in miracles.
i wish i was you...
i really want this one dream of mine
to come true.
=/
it is very good for you
No one can foretell the future except God is involved. Sometimes God will show you little things about the future to come only to build you up for bigger things down the road. The whole point is the point to Him. When trouble breaks out down the road God can speak to you through your dreams and give you direction and guidance as what you need to do, because He loves you.
Prophetic dreams, also referred to as precognitive or psychic dreams, are dreams that seemingly foretell the future. One rational theory to explain this phenomenon is that our dreaming mind is able to piece together bits of information and observation that we normally overlook or that we do not seriously consider. In other words, our unconscious mind knows what is coming before we consciously piece together the same information.
It means you're psycho, I mean psychic.........
it means that u r weird
ir physic.noo well actually dreams are reflected on your thoughts from your earlier day and thoughts that were in the back of our mind and you forgot so if they came true and you knew they were going to come true [like if u dreamt there was a bake sale on friday and there was one then you probably knew it but forgot it ] so then there you go. if your dreams are unrelated to this then your phsycic.
i do this quite often ..its called premonition
the world is going to end!

Did Joe show Obama's true mean spirited self that comes out occasionally, but is usually well controlled?
Michelle needs duck tape to control hersDid Joe show Obama's true mean spirited self that comes out occasionally, but is usually well controlled?
Joe showed himself to be a complete and total liar.
Who is Joe the Plumber?
Joe the Plumber is actually Joe Wurzelbacher from outside of Toledo, Ohio.
Joe doesn't have a plumbers license.
';Thomas Joseph, the business manager of Local 50 of the United Association of Plumbers, Steamfitters and Service Mechanics, based in Toledo, said Thursday that Mr. Wurzelbacher had never held a plumber鈥檚 license, which is required in Toledo and several surrounding municipalities. He also never completed an apprenticeship and does not belong to the plumber鈥檚 union.';
Joe doesn't pay taxes.
';According to public records, Mr. Wurzelbacher has been subject to two liens, each over $1,100.';
';One tax lien is still outstanding with the State of Ohio';
Joe was never undecided.
';Turns out that Joe Wurzelbacher from the Toledo event is a close relative of Robert Wurzelbacher of Milford, Ohio. Who鈥檚 Robert Wurzelbacher? Only Charles Keating鈥檚 son-in-law and the former senior vice president of American Continental, the parent company of the infamous Lincoln Savings and Loan. The now retired elder Wurzelbacher is also a major contributor to Republican causes giving well over $10,000 in the last few years.';
Joe was never ';getting ready to buy a company that makes $250,000 to $280,000 a year';
';Joe works for Newell Plumbing %26amp; Heating, which has two full-time employees: himself and the owner, Al New ell.';
';Owner Al Newell has no intention of selling his business. But if the plumbing business remained a two-person company and the net proceeds 鈥?after deductions for business expenses 鈥?were shared by the two men, both incomes would most likely fall well below the top tax brackets on which Mr. Obama wants to raise rates, as would the company itself.
Both, in fact, would probably be eligible for a tax cut, said Bob Williams, senior research associate at the independent, nonpartisan Tax Policy Center';
Joe's taxes were never going to be raised by Obama
';According to his Divorce records, Joe's 2006 income 鈥?$40,000, wouldn鈥檛 even come closer to qualifying him for the tax hike he's so worried about.';
Joe is actually breaking the law
';Under Ohio building regulations, he has to maintain his own license to do plumbing work 鈥?working under his boss鈥檚 one isn鈥檛 good enough.';
Joe was planted and coached by the McCain Campaign
Joe, who voted for John McCain in Ohio's Republican Primary, wanted to come up with a question that Obama couldn't tap dance around. So he sought out the help of the local McCain campaign office. They devised a made up question that consisted of lies and trap questions which Obama answered directly and honestly. Unfortunately for Joe, it wasn't his question, so when Obama answered it, he was still confused and thought that Obama ';was almost as good as Sammy Davis Jr.';
IS JOE JUST LIKE YOU? OR IS JOE JUST ANOTHER LYING REPUBLICAN?
Did Joe show Obama's true mean spirited self that comes out occasionally, but is usually well controlled?
Great question.
However, they need to put duct tape over Michelle's mouth otherwise she will continue to eat steamed lobster tails when the ';house'; pays. Obama will show his nasty side as his big leads in the polls continues to get smaller and smaller as it gets closer to the election.
Yes, he truly dislikes hard-working Americans. If there is going to be anger, let's direct it in the right direction, like McCain does. Let's direct our discontent towards people like Obama who were lining their pockets while helping to create this housing crisis. Is that Obama means by spreading the wealth?
Yep.
It's a good thing Michelle disappeared. Her hateful bitter diatribes were wrecking the campaign. Have you read her thesis?? She is more racist than David Duke.
Big difference between mean spirited (BO) and getting pizzed over things that should not be (JM)
A little desperate lately as your McCain goes down the drain? This is the only republican lie you could come up with?? It doesn't have much punch. Get some pointers from Karl Rove - but hurry! He'll be in federal prison before too long.
Obama has frequently shown his mean spirited side towards Americans. People just refuse to accept this characteristic of his personality.
how was he mean spirited? by explaining his tax rates?
mccain shows his mean spirit often!
Better than McCains well known bad temper!
If he gets to be president he won't have to control it.
What are you talking about? Have you been paying attention? It's McCain who has an anger problem.
Yes, and people should look closer at the tax plans.
Yes...this just proves I'm right...Go Mccain!!!

What is the true meaning of life? I mean the survival as a 22yo fresh grad with a diploma with an unstable gf?
Twenty two years old...the future is yours for the taking! You will find that The meaning of life unfolds as you continue on your journey,,,You grow, spiritually, psychologically, (hopefully) mature, and continue to educate yourself whether it's a formal education or on the job training. If you travel your perspective on life, it's meaning, and your purpose here on planet Earth will also expand. No one, regardless of age ';should, stay with an ';unstable girlfriend'; unless you want to play babysitter. You're young, but you're old enough for me to tell you--- the choices that you make will determine the quality of your life. No one should ever stay in an unhealthy relationship.

What does this mean???What does this mean? When a true genius appears in the world you may know him by this sign ....?
It means that idiots don't know what works, so they will always try to stop someone who does.What does this mean? When a true genius appears in the world you may know him by this sign ....?
Consider that many great innovators and artisits were, in their time, not at all appreciated for their efforts because what they were doing was not in line with the mainstream. Yet those who were most successful in the mainstream are often lost in the annals of history. This is because it's the true genius that dares to go above and beyond what society currently considers ';good'; or ';normal'; and those two ignorant to escape the proverbial ';box'; are then likely to criticize the efforts of the true innovators.
the masses (who according to this quote are stupid) will not recognize true genius and will instead rebel against it. Applied to a real event:
when a true genius (Galileo with his concept of a sun centric solar system) appears in the world you may know him by this sign, that the dunces (people who don't accept science) are all in confederacy (religious establishments) against him.
It means when someone who 'thinks outside the box'; or is smarter than the average person, or even someone who has a new idea, they are often times ridiculed and abused my the less intelligent. Think of MLK who was killed by those who opposed civil rights for blacks. Think of Galileo who told us the sun was the center of the universe and was thrown out of the church. People like that are what the writer is referring to.
He or she will be a free thinker, someone uninterested in what other's think of him, he will of course be hated because of that by the so called ';experts'; aka dunces.
wooo mamma, you may want to look in further on this. BUT the civil war still exists in the usa.....and there is still hatred for the other side
Most everyone who has answered has done so correctly, and the Quote is from, Jonathan Swift .......
the genius is mccain!
When someone really smart is around, you will know that he is smart because the stupid people are all against him.
people tht r less smart will join together in hatred against him
He's gonna get his shyt beat
when he shows up, you and your friends will all agree to hate himcredit union

What Does This Mean if This Is Actually True?
I heard about a poll that was conducted by survey usa, while watching MsNBC, that about 20% of the people who voted for Obama would have voted for Palin if she was at the top of the ticket. Is it possible that many independents wanted to get McCain out of the way, so that we could have president Palin in 2012? What Does This Mean if This Is Actually True?
I don;'t care what anyone says, those who voted for Obama would never vote for Palin even for city stump-digger. That'd be like those who support Mother Teresa's work suddenly supporting Stalin --- a totally stupid concept. This is obviously another republican dirty trick of trying to get Obama voters to vote for their ba$tard candidate in 2012! Ain't gonna' work, fools!What Does This Mean if This Is Actually True?
MSNBC.... so you were who was watching.......well beside Olbermans mom..........so not much credibility...... McCain pulled the normal base, but lost the indepent vote this time...that percentage gave Obama the 6% margin...
That's the first I'm hearing this. I found McCain acceptable. It was her I found completely awful. I can't understand her appeal. I just can't.
If they are suggesting that 20% of the voters are superficial idiots...I would have to agree.
What they all came up with the same idea?
Not likely.

It's technically true that people born with birth defects are ';ugly';, cruel but true fact? I mean to deny a
truth gives it more power so why not just come out and admit that they're unlucky with looks?It's technically true that people born with birth defects are ';ugly';, cruel but true fact? I mean to deny a
What particular ugly person are you referring to, in order for us all to collectively pass judgement.It's technically true that people born with birth defects are ';ugly';, cruel but true fact? I mean to deny a
To me you illustrate something interesting:
Mutation is alledged by evolutionists to be the engine of evolution. Yet, every mutation we see is, not just ugly, but usually deadly.
To me this just highlights the absurdity of the evolution religion.
if health is beautiful then deformity is of course ugly.. but its all subjective so you can't really generalize
It is true, but only until one learns to accept abnormality, to see pass appearances and to peer into dark twisted thoughts of truly ugly people.
depends wat kind of birth defects. But yea i hate it when ppl start calling ppl with birth defects that r butt ugly as being beautiful. ';Shes beautiful';, they must have some serious eye sight problems.
depends on the birth defect of course, but people are genetically programmed to be attracted to healthy individuals with symmetrical features, good skin tone, healthy weight, etc.
Luckily beauty is only skin deep, and those people who are unlucky enough to be born without physical beauty can still be appreciated for their personality and character, by those who are willing to look beyond the surface.
Of course it's true - and many other things like it - a girl who stays flat chested after puberty is crushed - as is a boy who stops growing at a relatively short height - or anyone born with a disability - I don't know who we think we're fooling with all our denials and euphemisms -
Very sad things befall us - no Facking doubt.
the truth is that they ARE physically unattractive, and they of all people know that better than any one else.
and such a person also would realize that people are just being nice when they say ';you look beautiful today';.
as far as concealing the truth goes, what should stop us from being nice? i mean, it sure would not be nice to be truthful and tell a girl with physical defects that she looks like sh!t in her new dress.
hopefully, not every individual has the same taste for skin deep beauty. so there's a good chance for someone to fall in love with an unfortunate-in-the-looks-dept.-person's nature, voice or any other non-looks attribute.
It's not so much ugliness as not the best possible mate to share your genes with.
After all we are just animals and the peahen does not choose the scrawny bald peacock.

What does it mean if your progressed true node is in your 5th house?
With North Node in Leo, our South Node is in Aquarius. With North Node in the fifth house, our South Node is in the eleventh house.
A tendency to rely on others who may let us down, to come across as impersonal or distant in our dealings with others, to be fearful of being the center of attention and standing out as an individual, to fear taking risks, and to fall back on peers and community at the expense of our own individuality are some of the issues this position suggests. With this position, we need to avoid falling into the easy trap of worrying about what others think about us. Instead, we need to strike out in our own individual and creative path without fear. We need to make a conscious effort to deal with others in a more personal, involved, and loving manner, rather than falling back on reason and intellect which detaches us from our feelings. We can easily alienate others when we over-emphasize equality to the point that we won't acknowledge individuals' uniqueness. We can too easily lose touch with our own heart by rationalizing our feelings, and become overly involved with other people's problems at the expense of our inner needs for attention. Learning to take personal risks, which requires a certain amount of self-confidence, will help us to achieve inner balance and happiness.

Silverthorne: ';dweller by the silver thorn';. What's it mean and is it true in Norway it means ';divine spear';?
Silverthorne: ';dweller by the silver thorn';. What's it mean and is it true in Norway it means ';divine spear';?
I have done some some pretty extensive research online but the name silverthorne is listed as in old English ';dweller by the silver thorns'; and supposedly in Norway it means ';divine spear';. Are these definitions accurate and what do they signify metaphorically?Silverthorne: ';dweller by the silver thorn';. What's it mean and is it true in Norway it means ';divine spear';?
Thorne = Anglo-Saxon or Old English or what is now ';Thorn';, so your last name has nothing to do with Norwegian. Silver = silver color, thorn = something sharp on roses, etc... Maybe it's just due to the meaning of a sharp object, which is used as the meaning of ';thorne/ thorn';. Silver = s酶lv in Modern Norwegian, thorn = torn in Modern Norwegian, so Silverthorn / Silverthorne = ';S酶lvtorn'; in Modern Norwegian but it doesn't seem to be a surname.
';dweller by the silver thorn';: Maybe the place that your ancestor's came from was at a place that was shaped like a ';silver colored thorn or sharp object';?
It's most likely that your ancestors came from England or somewhere in the UK where Anglo-Saxon used to be spoken. But definitely not in Norway. Anglo-Saxon %26amp; Norwegian are Germanic languages, meaning they might have some type of relationship via Germanic languages like Anglo-Saxon, which later on came to be called Old English [or those ';English words which has Germanic roots'; at least from a modern English speaker's point of view], Scandinavian languages, Yiddish, German, Dutch, etc...
divine = guddommelig
spear = lanse; spidde, spyd
As you can see, the modern Norwegian word for spear = ';lanse';: Does this remind you of any English or shall I say ';Anglo-Saxon'; or ';Medieval times'; English? It does look somewhat like the word ';lance'; in English does it not?

Does being a ';true American'; mean you can't call the government ';asshats';?
Or can I actually be a true, conservative, patriotic American and still call people who run the government, ';asshats';? Also, does supporting the troops mean I have to support the war? I live in Germany and do a lot of work on the Army bases here. The troops want to come home, wouldn't that suggest that supporting the troops also means supporting what THEY want, not just what the government wants? I believe supporting the troops means getting them out of that illegal, immoral, war of greed. Is that wrong?Does being a ';true American'; mean you can't call the government ';asshats';?
hmm americas meant to have freedom of speech right?
well sounds like theyv been manipulating people who dont support the war into feeling bad that they supposedly arnt supporting the troops... and that goes against freedom of speech
ur not wrong, i think u couldnt be more right, speak up about ur views!
the whole weapons of mass distruction stuff turned out to be false so im not sure what the insentive to attack iraq was... its just made everything 100x worse for the innocent people who live there
any war is wrong, fights between people in high power shouldnt be put in the hands of innocent people, i think they should fight it out themselves instead of mindless killingDoes being a ';true American'; mean you can't call the government ';asshats';?
Being a true American means you can question the leaders in power if they are not doing a good job, or call them asshats w/e you want..lol, but the idea that the media/bush admin pushed there for a while that 'your not an American if you question the war..your dont support the troops if you question the war' IS BS!!!! NOBODY that has ever questioned anything about the president or the war has ever said 'I am against the troops' WE ALL want the troops to come home safe, some of us just realize that it's time they come home right now!..
No, actually quite the contrary your rights as an American citizen allows you to call whoever whatever you want. It is called freedom of speech. More citizens need to have an active roll and call things as they see them..there is no law against that. As for the war, I believe that you wanting the war to be over means that you are against things that can harm Americans, and in this instance you are against the war. Sound thinkers think alike this war has run its course. Many will argue that if we pull out now it will be a sign of retreat or giving up. We would be putting our soldiers honor at risk due to not finishing what we started. Those that have died, would have fought in a war that we lost. All good sound arguments.
Those people have to ask themselves when is enough enough. The President is trying to escalate things prior to his departure..why does he think that this will promote a republican back in the White house. We all know the answer to that. What you say and believe carry pride, morality, character, courage and patriotism. No one can accuse you of not supporting our troops by what you have said.
Did a Republican tell you that you were unpatriotic for calling the government ';asshats';? Because we all know, from years of experience, if the Republicans called you unpatriotic for something that means it must be true and you must have blind obedience and take that comment back. They are the patriot police, after all. Make sure when you apologize you are wearing your American flag shirt, pants and pin, so you seem more patriotic. Ok?
Whats great about America is that you can critisize the government as much as you want... alot of people won't like you for it but your entitiled for your opinion.
And yes, you can support the troops without supporting the war, those are 2 diffrent things.
BTW many troops like myself still support the war
When you live in a police state, dissent is patriotic and courageous.
And the government, particularly the National Command Authority, are the very definition of asshats.
No.
But how can anybody who supports the US Constitution call the war 'illegal?'
Except for the war being legal and moral, you almost had me agreeing with you.
No
True American patriots have always called their politicians horrible names throughout our history. Part of our wonderful system of checks and balances is that we have two political parties which continuously seek to undermine each other. The government operates under a continuous system of gridlock, and therefore, the people enjoy freedom from totalitarianism.
I was also against the war in Iraq because I believe it would do more harm than good. However, once America did occupy Iraq, America then because responsible for the welfare of the Iraqi people. If they were to leave before the Iraqi government could control things then a civil war would errupt with great loss of life. So I believe that supporting our troops means more than just getting our troops out safely. It means doing what we can to see that the American troops have what they need, so that, when they leave, the Iraqi people have safe, democratic county in which to live.
American troops want to come home. True. This is normal for all our troops stationed anywhere in the world. But they also understand that if they are performing a valuable job, and that only they can do it.
I would hope that the Iraqi government should eliminate corruption, and work together to bring stability and justice. Then I would like to see all the American troops come home. I believe this is possible.. not in a hundred years, but within 2-4 years.credit union

Christians, if Muslims die for their faith, does that mean their belief is true?
I think it takes much more faith to kill yourself for your faith rather than let someone martyr you, what do you think?Christians, if Muslims die for their faith, does that mean their belief is true?
Well of course...Muslims TRULY believe in their scripture and holy book. They do not deny one single word of it. I'm not saying this as any offense to anybody, but there are WAY MORE a real practicing Muslims than there are real practicing Christians. We stay true to our religion. And the only time you die for your religion (ex: martyr) is when you are in a war. You simply aren't going to go risk getting killed in the name of Islam for no reason.
***Edit***
Don't listen to Suberb9006...he is just a hateful person who can't have tolerance for other religions. If he actually read the Quran, it says this:
Quran 5:82: ';Strongest among men in enmity to the believers wilt thou find the Jews and Pagans; and nearest among them in love to the believers wilt thou find those who say, ';We are Christians';: because amongst these are men devoted to learning and men who have renounced the world, and they are not arrogant.';Christians, if Muslims die for their faith, does that mean their belief is true?
Those that have died as such obviously believed in what they were doing if that's what you mean. The Heaven's Gate people who killed themselves to ride a comet also believed in their thing as well. I am not sure however that such is wisdom or virtue in that regard.
Christians are not called to kill themselves, and certainly are not called to do so to demonstrate faith.
No. People who believe in a religion might die for it, especially if that religion actually celebrates martyrdom. However, people will not die for something they know is a lie. This is why the conspiracy theory that critics of christianity use - the claim that the disciples made it all up - doesn't fly. People don't allow themselves to be tortured and killed for something they know is a lie. They would have confessed it was made up. However, we have no evidence to show that any one of the apostles of Jesus confessed that they made the whole thing up.
Your question makes no sense logically. When you die for your faith you ARE letting someone martyr you.
You should have more respect for the martyrdom of the saints. They're part of your quaran too, right? They died painful deaths you know.
Mmmm....no. Their belief that Islam is true may be strong, but the strength of one's conviction does not determine veracity. Many people will kill or be killed for what they believe, whether what they believe to be true, is in fact, true.
And anyone who kills themselves for their faith makes me question their faith. I don't necessarily question their earnestness, just the object of their faith. What is it that they are placing their faith in that requires them to kill themselves and others?
Having faith is not the most important thing. It is the object of one's faith that makes all the difference. That is why Jesus said if one had the faith of a mustard seed, one could move mountains:
Mat 17:20
(20) And Jesus said to them, Because of your unbelief. For truly I say to you, If you have faith like a grain of mustard seed, you shall say to this mountain, Move from here to there. And it shall move. And nothing shall be impossible to you.
Jesus is saying that the object of our faith is what matters. If our faith is in Christ, then even if our faith is as small as a mustard seed, there is nothing that is impossible for us. Why? Because our faith is in Jesus Christ, who is the Way, the Life, and the Truth and in whom all things exist. If we ask in faith, according to God's will, then we can be assured that it will be done. God's Word is Truth.
Of course it does, according to Christian logic. The alleged ';death'; of the apostles is frequently cited as evidence that Jesus not only existed, but was a godman.
Consequently, if Muslims are willing to die for their religion, it must be TRUE! LOL.
Fail. Muslims don't just kill themselves for what they believe. They try and take as many non muslims with them. That is not being martyred, that's murder. Of themselves and others. That is also hatred which is never truth.
No. True belief is based on the teachings of Jesus Christ. As Jesus said at John 8:31, 32: ';If you abide in my word, you are truly my disciples, and you will know the truth.'; That is the only real truth worth dying for.
He that Lives by the Sword will Die by the Sword:
why would their belief be true if they kill themselfs because of it? there just killing for nothing,
Which book did you plagarize that one from? Hitchens, Harris?
what we think doesnt matter, it matters what God and the Bible says

Coaches know opponets field goal % shows your true defense so does that mean Cavs vs Nuggets?
Off the teams left this is what they rank Defensively in field goal pct.
#1Cleveland Cavaliers 40.9
#2 Denver Nuggets 42.0
If the other team cant score they can't win huh???????
Does this mean these teams will eventually meet?Coaches know opponets field goal % shows your true defense so does that mean Cavs vs Nuggets?
I think they will probably meet in the finals. But the Nuggets wont win.Coaches know opponets field goal % shows your true defense so does that mean Cavs vs Nuggets?
It wouldn't surprise me if Denver ended up upsetting LA however we can't take that one stat and say it will decide who is in the Finals. Yes it shows how great of a defense both teams possess but a lot more comes into play at this point in time in the Playoffs. Plus neither team has really had a true challenge yet. Denver will get a challenge with LA/Houston but I don't see Cleveland having a good challenge til the Finals.
To the poster above. Denver met up with LeBron twice this year and blew the Nuggets out by double digits IN BOTH GAMES and held your best players in serious check.
LeBron dropped in a couple measly 30+ point games.
Nene held to one single point-Anthony held to 16 and 13 in both games...Good luck with that though.
Try again.
109-85 IN DENVER
Yeah we will see how stupid you can make him look.
You don't know if they will meet because the West is wide open...
They say defense wins championships but tough to pick the Nuggets over the Lakers who are a lot more physical and bigger. Who's going to guard Kobe?
the nuggets are underrated, I bet the nuggets will win and make lebron look like a silly fart!

What does Saturn conjuncting True node in chart mean?? and is True node same as North node?
why there is different names for this too btw?
please describe and explain aspect
and if in 12th house how would it be?
please explain
thanks for your answers!What does Saturn conjuncting True node in chart mean?? and is True node same as North node?
Nodes are points in the sky. They are not objects. They are the points where the Moon's orbit intersects the ecliptic (the Sun's apparent path around the earth). Since the Moon's orbit varies a bit and goes north and south of the ecliptic, the intersecting points move along the ecliptic usually backwards. The node on the north side of the ecliptic is called the north node. The node on the south end is called the south node. In older literature they are called the dragon's head (north) and the dragon's tail (south).
There are two ways of determining the position of the nodes: the mean position and the true position. They vary very slightly. The mean position is like an average and when measured that way they move only retrograde or backwards in the zodiac. The true node is the actual place it sits and it has short periods of direct movement. They are always exactly opposite each other. If the north node is at 10 Virgo the south node has to be at 10 Pisces.
';Saturn conjunct the true node'; doesn't tell us whether it is conjunct the north or south node. It only tells us how the node is measured in the chart. There are all kinds of meanings given to the nodes in modern astrology. Most of them are junk. In traditional astrology the north node expands like Jupiter and the south contracts like Saturn. Saturn on the north node would decrease the expansion influence of the node and increase the constrictive force where the south is influential.
It is best to use only conjunctions to the nodes and not aspects. Remember, when something hits a node by aspect or conjunction it hits the other one as well.
In my experience the south node is the one that bears watching. It is often the place 'where you get hurt.'; Janis Joplin has the south node on the ascendant and she hurt herself.What does Saturn conjuncting True node in chart mean?? and is True node same as North node?

What does True node transiting into opposition to natal Saturn mean or represent?
and if true node is transiting 3rd house at the time opposite Saturn in 9th..what could this mean?
please explain and describe.
thanks for your answers!What does True node transiting into opposition to natal Saturn mean or represent?
Saturn has to do with karma or past, and lessons which need to be learned. So with Saturn in opposition, it would place an even stronger emphasis on the need to reconcile or learn from past mistakes. I'm not saying I'm into reincarnation. It could mean that you need to leave the past in this life behind and focus on your future.

What does true certfied copies mean? i need to send one of my birth cert?
is it the original?What does true certfied copies mean? i need to send one of my birth cert?
It's the one you get from the ONS (Office of National Statistics) or the local register office where you were born. It can be a copy, as long as it's done by them, officially.What does true certfied copies mean? i need to send one of my birth cert?
It is the copy that you / your parents were given when you were born, or any subsequent copy that you may have bought though the ONS or the registrar's office covering the are where you were born. I think the full certificates are around 拢7.50 at the moment. It is called a copy because the originals are at the ONS and the registrar's office and are in books, rather than loose sheets of paper.
A true certified copy is NOT a photocopy that has been signed by a 'notary' to say that they have seen the original!
A certified copy is a photocopy of a filed document, legal or other, in its entirety (everything within a staple) that is sworn to be a true copy by a court clerk or solicitor. If the staple is removed then the copy loses its certified status.
As part of ';know your customer'; banking regulations most financial institutions now require a certified copy of a passport when new accounts are opened. This would normally entail a copy of the pages containing one's name, photograph, passport number and date of birth.
You need to contact your state office for records. They print up a copy of your birth certificate and then give it their official seal. Will cost a few bucks but not bad
Certified Copies are photocopies with a fresh solicitor's signature on each copy.
i think a true certified copy means it has to be the original document! make sure you make a copy of it before sending and send it by recorded delivery to make sure it gets there!!!!
No it means that you need to get a public notary to sign a copy to say they have seen the original and it is exactly the same.

If atheists are concentrated mostly in First World Countries,does it mean that Atheism may be the true way?
The bulk of atheists are found mainly in wealthy countries, while countries in which religion is still tied to state affairs are far from running well. Does it mean that atheists could be right, after all?If atheists are concentrated mostly in First World Countries,does it mean that Atheism may be the true way?
When you go alone with satanic deception you enjoy a smooth ride all the way to hell. Opposing satanic influence will guarantee you much trouble in life but an eternal destination worth fighting for.If atheists are concentrated mostly in First World Countries,does it mean that Atheism may be the true way?
I don't think atheism is a way, but most probably it's true. Atheism has grown and is growing in first world countries because of the lack of legal compulsion, the erosion of social compulsion and the secularisation of the education system. I don't think that atheism is the prime cause of the growth of wealth, atheism is just one of the consequences of the individual freedom of democratic societies. It is democracy and freedom that make a society strong, innovative and gives it the means to generate wealth..
God is made to comfort people. People in third world countries have no comfort, other than god. People in first world countries have more access to more knowledge, therefore able to see facts and figures about life. First world people have complete control over customizing their life. Religion, no religion, etc. It makes no difference which we choose, only how it's used. We could easily be a third world country if people gave it up for religion, but next to nobody does. People choose money if there's access, power, control, ALL before religion. Third world countries don't really have a choice.
A few hundred years ago, we didn't have the knowledge we have now, and that is why religion kicked off. The same as in 3rd world. But some people stuck to it throughout the knowledge we have now, meaning they are sticking to 80th century beliefs of comfort rather than the modern day and refuse to see the modern world.
It doesn't mean atheists are right generally, although I believe it's the most sensible.
If that were really true though then there would be high percentages of Atheists in the ';first world'; countries than there are now.... in the US for example, only have about 4% of the population that claims to be of no religion (which I assume to mean Atheism because there is an other category), Australia - 15%, Canada - 16%, the highest I have seen so far is Great Britain at 23%... all according to CIA Factbook.... and even Sweden that is the most socially liberal country (as it allows bestiality) 87% of the population claim to be Lutheran and the other 13% claim to be some other religion.
I love how some of the atheists claim that they are all logical and love science... then how do you explain me then? I am not an atheist, I believe in God yet I try to be logical and I love science? I am even a Physical Geographer and minored in Meteorology and Mathematics. If you need proof I will scan my graduation commencement program and post online, just for you.
Well, considering that knowledge is the one true kryptonite of religion, it makes sense that the more educated a person is the more easily they would see through all the B.S. of religious dogma.
People in ancient times created religion and gods to explain things that happened in nature and life that they didn't have the answers to.
That's no longer the case anymore.
you have swapped the reason with consequences...
the people are religious there, since their countries are so miserable.
while the people in the rich countries have an option to not believe.
i thinnk both enlighteed religious tates, and the atheist ones can progress.
Yes, and atheism is quietly growing in the more developed middle eastern countries. Heck, Israel is by far more secular than religious.
Not necessarily.
I think atheism is concentrated in wealthy countries since these countries have better educational systems.
First World countries: you push coins in a machine and get food.
Third World countries; no coins, no machines, no food.
Whadyya expect?
The bulk of the atheists are found in countries with decent public education.
From where do you get your facts?
You have a false premise. Therefore, any conclusion you draw, is, false.
Peace.
I think that's probably because people in third world countries don't have anything other than God to hold on to.
It's the logical default given the lack of evidence for God- if you value logic and reason it is the correct way.
no, just because everybody is doing/believes in something, does not make it correct or absolute. 2 wrongs .....

The things I dream about, usually come true, could this mean anything?
Everything I dream about,bad or good, usually comes true in real life,
does this happen to anyone else?
Its weird.
Could this mean i can see my future in my dreams? or its just a coincidence?The things I dream about, usually come true, could this mean anything?
If you had seen it happen only once in a while you might say that it was a coincidence. But you have had the experience often, so it is not likely to be coincidental. In short your conclusion that you can see the future is the only choice you have in this case.
I have good news for you. There is every day someone on this Yahoo Site that claims to have seen at least one or two dreams come true. And when that happens there are always two or more respondents, sometimes up to 7, that say in their answers that they too have had this same sort of experience. There are of course those who say that this is nonsense. But nonsense it is NOT.
That the dreams are prophetic is in fact the most ancient wisdom on earth. Our ancestors of 4000 years back have seen that dreams come true. In the Bible for instance you have several examples. In fact some passages in the Bible say that anyone who dreams the future is a prophet.
This belief has been denied by our modern psychologists. But I assure you, they only deny it because they have not kept a precise record of their own dreams and also have not bothered to learn the dream language to the necessary extent.
And they will deny this despite the fact that many scientists have reported that their ideas came from their dreams. And scores of inventors have testified to the fact that their inventions came to them in their dreams.
Take Jung for instance, the most famous psychologist who has analised thousands of dreams and has seen many, many dreams come true literally. Regardless of this fact he insisted that dreams did not necessarily foretell the future, but only depict certain possibilities or probabilities.
And Freud, the very psychologist who hauled the dream out of its deep sleep, the first to say to his fellow scientists that the dream was meaningful and not just a bit of froth and bubbles, he of all people DENIED that the dream could foretell the future.
I think you are very fortunate to have cracked the most open secret of life which is that dreams foretell the future, that they in fact are the blueprints of our waking life. Keep your observations up and keep a record of your dreams with the dates when you had them, for dreams may wait weeks or even years before they come true.
In this respect Sikorsky, the Russian aeronautics engineer and builder of the American Air Clipper is a prime example. As a boy of 12 years of age he dreamt that he was flying in an airplane that had beautiful timber trimmings and a long passage with electric lights. He naturally forgot his dream after some time. But when he was taking part in the test flight of his invention 30 (thirty) years later, the dream came back to him with astonishing clarity.
So keep up your observations and don鈥檛 forget to record them for others to see one day.The things I dream about, usually come true, could this mean anything?
me.
when i dream of love(of people who i know and who are friends)
ususally we go out 1 month after the dream.
friday was the best dream in my life.
i was with my crush throughout the entire dream.
the good part is that in other dreams they wer around for lke 10 mins in the dream.i went out with most gf's for only 2-3 weeks
your dreams come true because you dream dreams others dream
about through collective mental thought pattern by talking to others on
topics with same interest that trigger the universal laws of manifestation this pattern is evident what we call (News) your thought
patterns are statelite signals that trigger the universal laws of manifestations.
personally when i dream its of things i either want, or wanted to change. probly just the **** that happened to you that day, you dream of it then the next day you rectify then it clicks in ur head that you can see the future :P
I dream of eating..
and it comes true.
its a power we must live with, tbh.
its a possibility...i mean i have know ppl like that...and i can sense things too...just not dreams
I dunno, but it's cool!
does this happen to anyone else?
Its weird.
Could this mean i can see my future in my dreams? or its just a coincidence?The things I dream about, usually come true, could this mean anything?
If you had seen it happen only once in a while you might say that it was a coincidence. But you have had the experience often, so it is not likely to be coincidental. In short your conclusion that you can see the future is the only choice you have in this case.
I have good news for you. There is every day someone on this Yahoo Site that claims to have seen at least one or two dreams come true. And when that happens there are always two or more respondents, sometimes up to 7, that say in their answers that they too have had this same sort of experience. There are of course those who say that this is nonsense. But nonsense it is NOT.
That the dreams are prophetic is in fact the most ancient wisdom on earth. Our ancestors of 4000 years back have seen that dreams come true. In the Bible for instance you have several examples. In fact some passages in the Bible say that anyone who dreams the future is a prophet.
This belief has been denied by our modern psychologists. But I assure you, they only deny it because they have not kept a precise record of their own dreams and also have not bothered to learn the dream language to the necessary extent.
And they will deny this despite the fact that many scientists have reported that their ideas came from their dreams. And scores of inventors have testified to the fact that their inventions came to them in their dreams.
Take Jung for instance, the most famous psychologist who has analised thousands of dreams and has seen many, many dreams come true literally. Regardless of this fact he insisted that dreams did not necessarily foretell the future, but only depict certain possibilities or probabilities.
And Freud, the very psychologist who hauled the dream out of its deep sleep, the first to say to his fellow scientists that the dream was meaningful and not just a bit of froth and bubbles, he of all people DENIED that the dream could foretell the future.
I think you are very fortunate to have cracked the most open secret of life which is that dreams foretell the future, that they in fact are the blueprints of our waking life. Keep your observations up and keep a record of your dreams with the dates when you had them, for dreams may wait weeks or even years before they come true.

What does it mean when a movie says Based on true events but has been fictionalized?
If it's true it's true. I don't get it! Why would you make things up, then it isnt a true storyWhat does it mean when a movie says Based on true events but has been fictionalized?
It means the person who made the movie is letting you know ahead of time that what you're watching may have never taken place, but the movie industry is going to try and sell as being true anyhow.
Take for instance the Texas Chainsaw Massacre. I saw the remake with Jessica Biel and I was horrified. The reason I saw it was because I had noticed the ad said it was based on a true story. However the ';true story'; it was based on was about a man named Ed Gein who liked to wear people's skin. He killed two people. He never had any help from friends or family, and never even used a chainsaw, but hey, according to Hollywood, it's close enough to use that type of advertisement for the film.
It pays to be educated. :-)What does it mean when a movie says Based on true events but has been fictionalized?
I agree with the 2nd chick who posted; it's so they can pass it off as near-fact. It probably didn't happen at all like in the movie a lot of the time.
What happens is that Hollywood is an industry that revolves around money, and the people creating films want to cash in as much as possible on a good story (or what they think is a good story). So they can hear a story but elements of it might not be 'commerically viable' or detract from what they see as a movie that could net them a lot of money. So they'll change parts, leave out parts, create people, create roles for actors who they may want to cast in the movie, etc.
Sucks but it's true with many so-called 'based on true events' movies.
Some details are added...Take for instance, Hoffa, the Danny Devito character never existed, he is just a character created based on many different people in Hoffas life.
haha i think they mean they're using the plot of what really happened, but changing around some of the details

Is it true that those hawaiian natives are hateful and mean and despise white people?
I heard you should never go to hawaii until the natives change their horrible attitude.
They are also dangerous and the cops don't do anything to protect tourists.
Is this true?Is it true that those hawaiian natives are hateful and mean and despise white people?
You are sadly misinformed. As with everywhere, there are some people who never like other people. Native Hawaiians (they don't really like being called ';natives';) are mostly part of the economy and cultural life--if you show respect you usually get it back. There are also Americans of Filipino, Samoan, Japanese, Chinese, Vietnamese, Korean, Togan, Micronesian as well as white people (which are the predominant race as a whole) both who were born here and who moved here.
Yes, the cops protect tourists. It's a VERY safe place--low crime but not no crime. Most crime is actually burglary as we do have an ';ice'; problem here. People in Hawaii are generally nice and helpful, but we have problems like everyone else.
If you come with that attitude, you will get attitude back. Aloha!
Edit: Hawaiian Dee is also sadly misinformed about life here in Hawaii. As I said, there are problems, but on the whole it's just different, not worse. I moved here right after high school and took my knocks like anyone and am now considered ';local'; by most of my Native Hawaiian friends. I took time to really get to know the cultural, the Hawaiian language, and how things are.Is it true that those hawaiian natives are hateful and mean and despise white people?
You have already received many answers with a lot of good detail. But I just want to add that if you come here with an open attitude, %26amp; want to learn about the local culture, you should be fine. If you come here with the attitude that things are so much better wherever you came from (which kinda begs the question, ';then why are you here?';), well, that is another story. There will always be a minority of people who have a chip on their shoulder for a variety of reasons, but most people here are very welcoming. Now, if you are coming here as a tourist, you probably won't even meet all that many local people, except those employed in the hospitality industry. Lastly, how could it possibly be true that the local police do nothing to protect tourists, when tourism is our bread %26amp; butter?
Question for Dee... if inter racial marriages are such a no-no, how is it that we have so many hapa people here?
I think it depends on which island you visit. I was primarily raised on the island of Hawaii (which the state is named after), and I moved to Oahu several years ago to finish my college education. I have to say that it's been a somewhat bizarre transition for me. Yes, I came from a much smaller town than the city of Honolulu, and many of the locals here tried telling me that my discomfiture stemmed from this. Nevermind, that my family did move around quite a bit, and I had lived in much larger cities prior to living in Honolulu. It took a bit of guesswork for me to figure out that there reason I felt out of place here was because the majority of the local Oahu people I have come across seem to have a very limited perception of what a local should not only how they should look, but also how they should speak and dress. (I am half white, don't speak pigeon) It was never this way on my island. Everyone was pretty much accepted, an while there were occasional disagreements with the locals and the mainlanders who had moved there, but they were never divisive. Here on Oahu though, I have noticed that there seems to be a lot of locals who are very abrasive to tourists, especially white tourists. I woud'nt go so far as to say that they are dangerous, although you may want to stay out of certain areas of the island. Just be aware that you may face some animosity (read up on Hawaiian history to give you some insight) on your visit, but I would not use that as an excuse to not visit Hawaii. Not all of have that horrible attitude that you may be wary of encountering!
1. Sometimes.
2. No. But you should consider your relationship to native peoples and the land, and learn the history of Hawaii to understand some of the resentment. As Bob Marley sang,
';If you know your history,
then you would know where I'm coming from.
And you wouldn't have to ask me,
who the #3|| do I think I am?';
Do the Hawaiian islands and cultures exist merely to make your vacation a pleasant one? No.
Should they be working to make their islands and social relations look just like the place you just left? No again.
Are there some social and economic issues they could stand to work on? Absolutely, but that's their problem to solve, not yours.
3. Some are dangerous, mostly because of the crystal meth epidemic and other social issues, but crime in Honolulu isn't significantly worse than crime in other major US cities. And our cops work very hard. Their priorities may not be your priorities, but that's true anywhere.
Some people come here expecting a paradise of racial harmony, and are disappointed when the reality doesn't match the picture postcard in their imagination. They aren't interested in finding out more--the why of the situation--so they report back the message you heard.
OMFG! all these people who think they know what they're talking about need to BE QUIET! they have no idea what it's all about.
white people come here acting like they run the island, and those are the people who cause problems!
and i mean seriously it would be the same anywhere else!!!!!!!!!
and the cops are always there
so to all these people who ask this same question every dammn day shut up you dont know what you're talking about and quit asking get your a** down here and take a walk in our ';native'; shoes trust me you'd get irritated too.
get your history right and facts straight
you already have lots of answers and if i gave you a new one it would sound similar to some you already got.
i just wanted to say to hawaiian dee...inter-racial marriages are a NO NO? hmmm...most of the marriages in hawaii are inter-racial. my great grandfather on my mom's side was pure filipino while my great grandmother was pure hawaiian. i don't know about my great grandparents on my dad's side. my grandpa on my mom's side was full on white and my grandmother was half hawaiian and half filipino. on my dad's side my grandma was hawaiian and chinese while my grandpa was white but raised by hawaiians. most marriages in hawaii are like that so i don't understand why you think it's a no no.
aloha!
First of all there are no 'natives' here. There are Hawaiians. And we have hundreds of tourists who come here and have no problem. This id because the treat that land and it's people with RESPECT.
Yes there are some hatred for a couple of reasons. The Missionaries took away the Hawaiian language and the Hula. And the overthrow of the islands was an illegal act.
The police do protect the tourist what you have herad in untrue.
We just got back from Maui and Oahu. I DID feel like we were invading someone's home many times when we were there, at least at grocery stores, gas stations, and food stands. Many locals would give us the cold stare and not answer back when we tried to strike up conversation. (maybe they don't speak much english?). We often felt like a nuisance and wondered why they were so cold, as tourism IS their bread and butter, as boomergal mentioned.
We never felt like anyone was being deliberately hateful or mean, but did feel a little despised. We ventured out to some remote beaches, where mainly locals hung out, and felt sorta unwelcome (kinda like if you walked into a wedding reception where you weren't invited). We were always respectful and kept in mind that it IS their home, and how would we feel if our neighborhood was overrun with nosy sightseeing groups!
But, I do agree. There was some tension. I wanted to tell them to just relax, and share :) We are admiring their world!
I don't know where you heard such a thing. I have lived in the No. shore of Oahu for years and I have never been treated badly or ';hatefully';. It is no different than any other place, treat people like you want to be treated.
I have always respected the Hawaiians and feel thankful they share their island with me. Are there issues..of course!! the same way there are issues with the native American Indians.
The police definitely have a full time job especially in Honolulu/Waikiki..its a metropolitan city, with alot of people/tourist. No different than L.A. or New York.
Personally, I have never felt love as I have here on the islands..... thats why it has the aloha spirit.
Aloha!!
You get the Funniest Question of the Month Asward.
Congratulaitons.
it is dangerous
When I went there, it wasn't toooooo bad, but it's highly understandable
Before I moved to Hawaii in 1984, I visited there with my 3 kids who were small at the time.
We rented a car and went to Kaena Point. If you've been there you know where that is. Rather inaccessible, dirt road at the time, extremely narrow and dangerous the farther you go - which I did NOT know at the time or I wouldn't have gone there. We were just out driving around.
I came to a point where the road twisted around the side and I couldn't see too far. Just then 2 local males came through so I asked them ';how is the road up ahead? Is it safe';?
One of them said ';Oh yeah it's safe no problem, go for it.';
The other one hit him in the side with his elbow and said ';Don't tell her that, she has little kids!';
The first one shrugged and said ';Yeah! It's safe! No problem!';
The other one just shrugged and shook his head at that point and they turned around and walked away. I heard the first guy say ';So what. They're haoles.';
So I drove on a little further and found that not only was the road not safe, it virtually almost disappeared and for sure my car would have gone straight down the mountain and more than likely my kids would have been killed.
Ok? Yeah, I will never forget that, and the hatred in the eyes of that first guy.
So yes, there ARE locals who hate whites, and I mean REALLY hate whites. Enough to see three little white kids dead.
I should point out that the rest of my trip there was fantastic - as long as I stayed off the West side and hung out in the tourist areas, stayed on the highways, etc. and didn't get into the local's areas.
I did end up coming back there each year for the next three years, and always had a fantastic time. I finally moved there in 1987.
My boyfriend at the time decided to drive a pedicab. I guess those are outlawed in Waikiki now, but they weren't then. There were a lot of locals who also drove pedicab, and they had their own area, their own stands that they stayed by. My boyfriend, who had come over with me, was 6 ft. 6 in. and about 280 lbs. ended up at their stand one day. Three or four guys decided they were going to try to beat the crap out of him for it, but unfortunately for them, my boyfriend picked one up, threw him against a wall, picked the next one up and did the same thing, knocked out the third guy, and I guess the 4th one ran away. So he never had another problem there.
I got a job at the Ilikai Hotel, where I cleaned the parking garages. I had to drive around on a machine that swept the garage floors, and then hop off to pick up any garbage along the sides. I was the ONLY white there in that entire department. The rest were all locals. And I had no problems with them except for ONE guy. And this guy was a freaking nutcase. He was a local, and he absolutely HATED whites. He would follow me around, glaring hatred at me from his eyes. Even sometimes I would be all alone working in the garages and look up and see him staring at me from around one of the posts in there, hatred in his eyes. It was really, really scary after not too long, and I went to my boss (also a local) and told him about it. He put a stop to it IMMEDIATELY. The guy who was following me around and glaring at me was around for a few more weeks, then he left and I never saw him again.
So these are a few of the incidents that happened, these are the more blatant ones. There were always the smaller things too, like getting the cold stares from some of the locals (not all, I got plenty of smiles too!) in areas outside the tourist sites.
Eventually my boyfriend left to go back to the mainland, but I stayed. I got involved with a local guy, and pretty much after that things were fine.
I did know a guy who came here from the mainland, he worked in the post office and got transferred. He brought out everything, his car, his family, the whole household. He left within six weeks to go back to the mainland. He said the locals in the post office were horrible to him, hated him, made his life totally miserable. I thought ';wow what a lot of money he wasted to come out here just to turn around and go back.';
His kids too, got beat up in school during the weekly ';Beat Up a Haole Day';. Yes, they really did have that. The local kids at school would beat the crap out of a white or two every week. It wasn't of course an OFFICIAL day, just something the local kids thought up and started doing. I don't know if that still goes on.
So, people who say that there is no hatred of whites in Hawaii are full of it. Oh yes there IS hatred of whites. But I have to say that in all the time I lived there, I found much more acceptance than hatred. I lived also on the north shore for a while, and it's pretty mellow there, not much of that going on up there. It was mainly on the West side that it happened, or among the locals in the tourist trade, a few of them hated whites.
Like I said, I did get involved with a local guy and things were fine from then on. I had no problems whatsoever. Except for the occasional eye roll from someone who thought that locals shouldn't be involved with whites, but I didn't get any overt hatred from then on. So for the next few years I had a great time there, no problems at all. Made a lot of local friends that I still have today even though I moved back to the mainland, we still keep in touch.
So yeah, anyone who wants to move there should be very aware that there are locals who hate whites, but that there are many MORE who don't and are great people.
Also, you have to take into consideration that their land WAS stolen from them and that's just not right in my opinion. There was a group when I was there that was just beginning. They were going to try to withdraw from the States or something, and take back the land as theirs, but I don't know how far this ever got - at least I have never heard on the news that the State of Hawaii has ceceded from the Union and is now an independent country, so I guess they haven't got too far.
Anyway, oh! About the cops? I never once saw a cop NOT protect anyone in danger, whether they were white or local. The cops there are ok. I don't know how this may have changed since the ice epidemic hit, but the cops were just fine when I was there. They stayed out of our way, we stayed out of theirs, and everyone got along just fine. I never saw any police brutality or anything like that. Very laid back guys, most of them are, or were.
If I knew someone who was going to move there, and they were white, I would say go for it, but I would also tell them what to avoid, what to watch out for, what to do, what not to do, where to go, where not to go, etc.
Hope this helps some.
YES!
Unless you are BORN here.......
Otherwise I have been here for 6 years and I have experienced tons of racism, discrimination, and prejudice....
Also I am in a Inter-racial marriage....so that is a big NO NO here! So that makes it worse...
Never have I experience such reticule from people on the mainland as I do here in Hawaii...
But for tourists...its better to stay in Touristie areas and not venture to the WEST SIDE of the Island at all.
There have been many many violent acts of crime there with the locals and tourists...
I never go to that side of the island!
The police do not do anything because they are natives and locals as well
They are also dangerous and the cops don't do anything to protect tourists.

I have always respected the Hawaiians and feel thankful they share their island with me. Are there issues..of course!! the same way there are issues with the native American Indians.
The police definitely have a full time job especially in Honolulu/Waikiki..its a metropolitan city, with alot of people/tourist. No different than L.A. or New York.
Personally, I have never felt love as I have here on the islands..... thats why it has the aloha spirit.
Aloha!!
You get the Funniest Question of the Month Asward.
Congratulaitons.
it is dangerous
When I went there, it wasn't toooooo bad, but it's highly understandable
Before I moved to Hawaii in 1984, I visited there with my 3 kids who were small at the time.
We rented a car and went to Kaena Point. If you've been there you know where that is. Rather inaccessible, dirt road at the time, extremely narrow and dangerous the farther you go - which I did NOT know at the time or I wouldn't have gone there. We were just out driving around.
I came to a point where the road twisted around the side and I couldn't see too far. Just then 2 local males came through so I asked them ';how is the road up ahead? Is it safe';?
One of them said ';Oh yeah it's safe no problem, go for it.';
The other one hit him in the side with his elbow and said ';Don't tell her that, she has little kids!';
The first one shrugged and said ';Yeah! It's safe! No problem!';
The other one just shrugged and shook his head at that point and they turned around and walked away. I heard the first guy say ';So what. They're haoles.';
So I drove on a little further and found that not only was the road not safe, it virtually almost disappeared and for sure my car would have gone straight down the mountain and more than likely my kids would have been killed.
Ok? Yeah, I will never forget that, and the hatred in the eyes of that first guy.
So yes, there ARE locals who hate whites, and I mean REALLY hate whites. Enough to see three little white kids dead.
I should point out that the rest of my trip there was fantastic - as long as I stayed off the West side and hung out in the tourist areas, stayed on the highways, etc. and didn't get into the local's areas.
I did end up coming back there each year for the next three years, and always had a fantastic time. I finally moved there in 1987.
My boyfriend at the time decided to drive a pedicab. I guess those are outlawed in Waikiki now, but they weren't then. There were a lot of locals who also drove pedicab, and they had their own area, their own stands that they stayed by. My boyfriend, who had come over with me, was 6 ft. 6 in. and about 280 lbs. ended up at their stand one day. Three or four guys decided they were going to try to beat the crap out of him for it, but unfortunately for them, my boyfriend picked one up, threw him against a wall, picked the next one up and did the same thing, knocked out the third guy, and I guess the 4th one ran away. So he never had another problem there.
I got a job at the Ilikai Hotel, where I cleaned the parking garages. I had to drive around on a machine that swept the garage floors, and then hop off to pick up any garbage along the sides. I was the ONLY white there in that entire department. The rest were all locals. And I had no problems with them except for ONE guy. And this guy was a freaking nutcase. He was a local, and he absolutely HATED whites. He would follow me around, glaring hatred at me from his eyes. Even sometimes I would be all alone working in the garages and look up and see him staring at me from around one of the posts in there, hatred in his eyes. It was really, really scary after not too long, and I went to my boss (also a local) and told him about it. He put a stop to it IMMEDIATELY. The guy who was following me around and glaring at me was around for a few more weeks, then he left and I never saw him again.
So these are a few of the incidents that happened, these are the more blatant ones. There were always the smaller things too, like getting the cold stares from some of the locals (not all, I got plenty of smiles too!) in areas outside the tourist sites.
Eventually my boyfriend left to go back to the mainland, but I stayed. I got involved with a local guy, and pretty much after that things were fine.
I did know a guy who came here from the mainland, he worked in the post office and got transferred. He brought out everything, his car, his family, the whole household. He left within six weeks to go back to the mainland. He said the locals in the post office were horrible to him, hated him, made his life totally miserable. I thought ';wow what a lot of money he wasted to come out here just to turn around and go back.';
His kids too, got beat up in school during the weekly ';Beat Up a Haole Day';. Yes, they really did have that. The local kids at school would beat the crap out of a white or two every week. It wasn't of course an OFFICIAL day, just something the local kids thought up and started doing. I don't know if that still goes on.
So, people who say that there is no hatred of whites in Hawaii are full of it. Oh yes there IS hatred of whites. But I have to say that in all the time I lived there, I found much more acceptance than hatred. I lived also on the north shore for a while, and it's pretty mellow there, not much of that going on up there. It was mainly on the West side that it happened, or among the locals in the tourist trade, a few of them hated whites.
Like I said, I did get involved with a local guy and things were fine from then on. I had no problems whatsoever. Except for the occasional eye roll from someone who thought that locals shouldn't be involved with whites, but I didn't get any overt hatred from then on. So for the next few years I had a great time there, no problems at all. Made a lot of local friends that I still have today even though I moved back to the mainland, we still keep in touch.
So yeah, anyone who wants to move there should be very aware that there are locals who hate whites, but that there are many MORE who don't and are great people.
Also, you have to take into consideration that their land WAS stolen from them and that's just not right in my opinion. There was a group when I was there that was just beginning. They were going to try to withdraw from the States or something, and take back the land as theirs, but I don't know how far this ever got - at least I have never heard on the news that the State of Hawaii has ceceded from the Union and is now an independent country, so I guess they haven't got too far.
Anyway, oh! About the cops? I never once saw a cop NOT protect anyone in danger, whether they were white or local. The cops there are ok. I don't know how this may have changed since the ice epidemic hit, but the cops were just fine when I was there. They stayed out of our way, we stayed out of theirs, and everyone got along just fine. I never saw any police brutality or anything like that. Very laid back guys, most of them are, or were.
If I knew someone who was going to move there, and they were white, I would say go for it, but I would also tell them what to avoid, what to watch out for, what to do, what not to do, where to go, where not to go, etc.
Hope this helps some.
YES!
Unless you are BORN here.......
Otherwise I have been here for 6 years and I have experienced tons of racism, discrimination, and prejudice....
Also I am in a Inter-racial marriage....so that is a big NO NO here! So that makes it worse...
Never have I experience such reticule from people on the mainland as I do here in Hawaii...
But for tourists...its better to stay in Touristie areas and not venture to the WEST SIDE of the Island at all.
There have been many many violent acts of crime there with the locals and tourists...
I never go to that side of the island!
The police do not do anything because they are natives and locals as well
