...including the staffing. Is it ethical to have the head of one department (Accounting, Marketing, Operations, etc.) be the one HR person for the company? This is in regards to a smaller company - less than 100 employees.

Specific light bulb brands/types and brand colors would be great! The bathroom is basically beige/cream all over. I want to stay away from pinks/roses.

Right now my back splash it just painted the same sandy beige as the rest of the kitchen and adjoining rooms.

No assumptions about me or attacks on me please. I'm just telling you what I saw.

While channel surfing I came across the channel C-Span which showed a panel of people discussing and presenting examples as to why they believe that the US government planned 9/11. I heard of this conspiracy before but I didn't think that it was being taken this seriously by any group. Have any of you heard anything (specifics and sources please) pointing towards the US committing the 9/11 attacks?

For arguments sake, suppose the US did plan this attack, what do you (especially the Americans) think the punishment should be for the people involved?

Please feel free to discuss your own society/country and whether or not you feel that the sentences given to rapists are appropriate and if you think your society's view of sex contributes to the laws pertaining to rape or sexual molestation.

For this question "sacred" doesn't necessarily mean within marriage or heterosexual. My intention is not to start a battle regarding these two issues.

I'm having a difficult time finding my number in the stores.

To see how well we would get along despite our differences, and to see the things we would do and say in His name, including judging another's fate, either directly with our words/lips, in our minds or by what we tell our children?

There is debate over this. Though most Muslimes believe in it I'm finding that more and more do not or are questioning it (or at least more are feeling comfortable enough to admit these views). It's not that they believe it to be part of the religion and don't like it. They really don't believe that it is a part of Islam, but simply culture made to be part of Islam. The debate seems to be mainly about the translation of the Arabic in the Qur'an and its interpretation and whether or not the saying of the Prophet Muhammed has any relevance since it was written by man and not revealed by God as the Muslims believe is the case with the Qur'an.
