  • If a female cat mated while in heat, would she remain in heat,or would her cycle end shortly after mating?

    My female cat (who I haven't had neutered yet) managed to get outside while in heat (I know, I know). I don't know if she "got lucky."

    My question is this: if she did mate, would the fact she mated switch her heat off? Or, would she remain in that heat episode even if she mated?

    My cat is still in heat, it was over three days ago in which she got out of the house. If she did mate, wouldn't she have snapped out of it since the deed was done? The idea she would remain in heat this long after her opportunity makes me think she didn't mate (and I hope not).

    Sorry to repeat the question , I want to make sure you understand what I mean. Thanks very much in advance. Take care!

  • Was I rejected or is this a hard to get adventure?

    I can't tell whether or not this girl I'm interested in is playing hard to get, or if she isn't interested.

    Pertinent Details:

    -Met in college class

    -Roughly a week ago, she started giving me practically every known sign (body language) of being attracted to me: staring at me, continuously glancing at me, smiling, body oriented toward me when sitting next to one another, stroke of her neck to look more attractive, playing with her hair (combined w/neck deal), etc.

    I started talking to her shortly thereafter. I took it slow. Roughly a week after first initiating contact, I gave her a short note in person, she read and responded as I sat next to her. I stated: "I like you as more than a friend. I am interested in you. I'd like for us to get to know one another. How do you feel? " I wasn't asking her out, just making my stance clear so she wouldn't falsely think I'm not interested, and hoping to ascertain whether or not she felt the same.

    I am terrible at the courting process most of the time (except online,I'm rather shy), but excel once its over with; so, that short & to the point note was a very very bold move for me.

    Her response (paraphrased): "I am actually talking to someone now, just got out a long term relationship. But, we can DEFINITELY be FRIENDS + get to know one another. Look me up online." She also gave me her phone number, I didn't ask for it.

    Before I gave her the note, she mentioned to me she had looked me up online.

    I didn't bother to look her up online after she requested I do so in her response to my note. Instead, she looked me up and formally added me herself later that night. Goes to show she must have been thinking of me (and not to mention the fact she had looked me up before knowing for sure I was interested in her).

    The negative indicators were obviously the "friend" and "talking to someone else" thing. Do pay attention to the wording with the "friend" comment, I tend to think it matters as it wasn't as firm/harsh as I've heard before, and the whole just got out of long-term relationship. Aside from that, I've only noticed signs of interest. She still looks @ me rather frequently. I can tell she's looking @ me in the corner of her eye pretty often.

    Today, as a test, I withdrew a good bit. I didn't pay much attention to her, etc. This could go either way, especially IF this guy is the "talking to guy": she was more "lively" than normal, drawing attention to herself in form of talking/playing around with this other guy in my class (perhaps trying to get me jealous?) I am playing it cool right now. I'm not going to throw myself all over her. I hate these games, if that's what this is; of course, I hate rejection as well, but I'd rather know if I'm LIKELY in a hard to get chase fiesta or more likely was rejected in a romantic sense.

    I'd like to understand why she would go on her own w/the online lookup and later online pursuit; why give her phone number off the bat, why give me all the body language signs she's interested (and yes, they were definitely directed toward me), etc if she isn't really interested. I want to know if it sounds like there is a decent chance she is interested in me? I'm sure the long term relationship ending will make her more cautious/hesitant.

    Please consider all the details. Please give me an honest and respectful answer. I am very appreciative of any meaningful replies. I know you all don't know with certainty, but once again, you all are in a better position than me considering you're not directly involved. Thank you very much. Take care.

  • Which Empire/Country does this quote pertain to,please help?

    The quote is something along the lines of: "an old crazy first rate man 'o war destined to be bashed on the shore." (not verbatim). I believe it pertains to Spain; but, I can't find any sources that confirm or contradict my suspicion.

    This is in relation to the European colonization period. Which empire/country does this describe? Thanks in advance!

  • Freethinkers/Atheists, what do you think of this idea?

    This is all common sense; and I'm surely not the first person to think of this, regardless I want to get it out there.

    We can fight the oppression of religion (especially Christianity if you're in America) through logic; but, the true believers have an amazing capability to stare logic in the face and deny/distort it.

    Instead of going to Freethinker/Atheist clubs' meetings,etc; or, in addition to going, we should organize Atheist/Freethinker Charity Organizations. Clearly label who we are and our stance on matters; and have Community Services, goodwill missions,etc.

    We can shatter the perception we are bad people by doing this; and in the process, beat the Christians at their own game.

    We actually could take the higher moral ground (in the eyes of the onlooker) because we wouldn't be trying to get people to come to some meeting,much less an organization, especially one where we would collect money.

  • Why does the Christian God/Jesus/Holy Spirit discriminate...?

    Miracles are a theme in the Christian religion, I know since I was raised as a Christian. They happen all the time, things Science cannot possibly explain. The blind regain sight, the lame speak, the crippled walk, all of these are miracles according to Christians, the work of Jesus, impossible things happening due to the power of God.

    Why then are Amputees ALWAYS excluded from these miracles!? We know for a fact the limb/whatever will never grow back, it has never happened. Why does Jesus not "cure" Amputees? The strange rationalization consisting of "well, humans created prosthetics, and they did through the gifts/power that Jesus gave them" WILL NOT PASS, it is Science that created prosthetics; and they are not divine miracles, please do not try to use that cop out. Please explain to me, Christians, is this discrimination by God?

  • Christians,miracles happen all the time, so why...?

    The blind see again, the lame speak, the deaf hear, the crippled walk, terminal cancer just disappears- science can't explain it! These educated fellas are stumped, feeling the Jesus! There is one group though that seems to be excluded from the whole miracle deal. Please give me your input. Cheers!

    WHY AREN'T AMPUTEES CURED! Why doesn't Jesus/God/Holy Spirit allow them to wake up with a new arm/leg/whatever one day!? You can't explain it rationally, so here we go! Time to create a strange,illogical rationalization (that probably makes you feel uncomfortable if you're educated) as to why your Jesus doesn't cure this group.

  • using the word racist correctly?

    The Jena 6 are hoodlums that were over-charged,I concede;but this highlights reverse discrimination that we call "racism."It is so taboo now to be a "racist."The funny thing is based on my life experiences,I've found most people are indeed "racist."

    It is politically incorrect to be open about it;so we pretend it's not there,until some event unleashes it. Please do explain to me why we whites are taught we should be so ashamed of what people that have lived before us did? If you're white, you cannot say "******,"yet that is one of the blacks' favorite words to use. If you're white living in a predominately black city and you see 90% of murders committed by black people,black people shooting at RESCUE HELICOPTERS,black people breaking into your uncle's bar (near the convention center,very thirsty in that heat,so they drink everything EXCEPT the tequila and THE WATER!)

    Does anyone remember the "Chocolate City" speech? Imagine if a white mayor had made a "Vanilla City" speech.

  • Mahmoud Ahmadinejad wishes to lay a wreath @ ground zero...we refuse...who else thinks he should be allowed?

    He's the bringer of death to all Israelites/the world(sarcasm), as our media/government tells us. Please explain to me why he should not be allowed to pay respect @ the very place many of our current problems manifested themselves. It is ridiculous.

    We look like/are the bad guys (to the rest of the world) in this instance. Please explain, with logic, why he should be banned from paying respect (even if false to his heart, though I doubt that) to those that died on 9/11/01. I have the distinct feeling of being on the losing team, being on the "wrong" side in this instance. This event makes us look like a$$holes to the rest of the world. Please tell me why we're right in doing such a thing.

  • Please give me your input?

    Here's my situation. I met a girl in college that I just connected with. The type of person that just clicks with me. She's an awesome girl. I got the vibe that she was attracted to me, we hung out, blah blah, when I made it more obvious I was attracted to her, she told me she has a boyfriend (to make it worse he goes to West Point-talk about competition!), after she had given me signals that she was interested.

    She was nice in her rejection of me. She told me she wasn't good with guys, and she's had this problem before. I figure it was mostly true; but I know as well as one can that she was attracted to me.

    Question-Do you think she was challenging me by telling me she had a boyfriend as I was moving in? The type of thing where I've got to proclaim my love for her and win her over? Sheer honesty? I didn't do anything, I respected what she told me. I really like her, but at the same time I don't want to try to wreck her relationship, I simply like her too much...

    Any input please?

  • Am I the only person absolutely sick of this ipod/iphone cult?

    Originally, the portable apple multimedia products were rather superior to all competition; however, I think now they are inferior, which is why I am so annoyed to see people camping out and cheering as they acquire their cool iphone.

    I personally think all that nonsense would be more understandable if the product were unquestionably superior to the competition. Anyways, who feels like I feel regarding this?

  • Does anyone know if Led Zeppelin is going to allow their material on the guitar hero-like games?

    They have refused in the past to allow their material to be used on the music simulating games such as guitar hero. So yeah, if anyone knows if Zeppelin may be allowing their music on any of the upcoming games, please let me know.

    There is "guitar hero 3" and "rock band" coming out soon, and being a zep fan+ a gamer I'd love to play their songs more than what is currently offered. I haven't purchased any of those games yet because I figure it is really expensive to take a shortcut that doesn't get me close enough to where I want to go.

    If anyone knows anything of use in relation to my question, I'd appreciate it if you would pass the knowledge on! Thanks.

  • Does anyone know the name of this horror movie I describe?

    I saw this movie when I was a young child,I don't remember the name. The movie begins with a man being executed in medieval time. He is forced to wear something on his head, I believe a helmet. He is killed and blood is shown leaking out of his helmet. He is a werewolf. Significantly later in time, he rises from the grave. I believe he goes on to live with a woman after rising from the dead, long after everyone that knew of his being a werewolf were dead themselves. I think he was a knight, some type of nobility. There is also a female vampire in this movie. She and the werewolf fight as I recall. I can't remember much of anything else. I appreciate anyone's help. Thanks!

  • Christians?

    I command in the name of Jesus (the Bible, right) $5,000,or any possession of yours worth $5000, who will show that they are true Christians? It is the Bible that allows me to demand such things, and your hypocrisy/lack of true love/faith for Jesus will show by refusing.

    Look up Matthew 5:42 -"Give to the one who asks you, and do not turn away from the one who wants to borrow from you."

    Go ahead and dodge the question, but you and I still know: when it comes to sacrificing your lifestyle for some jerk on the internet, Jesus takes the back door for you! "Yes" or "No" are the only relevant answers here, the rest of you are not true Christians and can just be quiet. Thank you!

  • How can we stop the Religious Right from destroying us?

    The Republican party has been hijacked by the Religious Right, bent on establishing a Christian theocracy in America.The majority of our citizens oppose a war, yet most will do nothing to actively try to stop it. We spend more taxpayers money on other nations than our own(think of Hurricane Katrina,our response to the Philippines landslide,etc).

    Also, in the aftermath of Katrina, we had armed Blackwater mercenaries on the streets of New Orleans with automatic guns. The disproportion of wealth in this country is astonishing (1% of population holds 90% of the nation's wealth).

    I fear our fate is tied with that of the Ancient Roman Republic, though we may not officially become an Empire, we may become an authoritarian establishment should we endure great instability and hardship(terrorist attack,etc). The Religious Right worries me the most, they have unprecedented power in America. It is easy to write them off without taking history into account.What is to stop them from ruining us?
