3 AnswersOther - Careers & Employment1 decade agoIs becoming a lawyer a reasonable career change for someone who just turned 40?
Having an undergrad degree with average marks, would going to law school to become a lawyer be a reasonable career change for someone who just turned 40? Is it hard to get clerkships? I don't plan to go to an elite college, the money just isn't in the bank to do so.

6 AnswersUnited States1 decade agoWhat Would Happen If ALL Political Negotiations Were Televised?
Imagine how different the outcomes might be if every citizen could hear ALL the negotiations between our politicians (locally and internationally--even amongst nation's leaders). Knowing that under the watchful eye of the camera--we would know the truth! What would happen? Why not do this? Our government puts cameras on street corners to catch citizens running red lights, crossing toll booths. Why can't we be given the same courtesy, and make sure our politicians our doing what they are supposed to be doing.

21 AnswersLaw & Ethics1 decade agoWhy do you think "terrorists" are targeting us?
I use the term "terrorists" because that seem to be the popular term. I could just as easily use dissident, people with bad attitudes, whatever. My question is why they are targeting us (America)? and when you give an answer, have the why behind that too. I have a general theory about people, and it is that people don't do something for nothing--so why?

Doesn't this make them false prophets?

4 AnswersPsychology1 decade agoWhy does MS Publisher pixelate Gif images with transparent backgrounds created in Photoshop?
I created a brochure and the product images have transparent backgrounds so they can float on top of the publication background. However, once inserted into publisher, the high resolution images become muddy, and pixelated, and worse, they print pixelated. What's happening? I check the images in photoshop and the are high resolution and look great in photoshop.
