7 AnswersSoap Operas1 decade agoWierd UPS tracking information?
I want to know if the information about my package is correct as the UPS website has said it has gone from China, to Japan, and then back to China, and then to Germany, and now it has gone back to China. Dell sent me an email saying that when my package was dispatched it would be delivered on the 8th of February, but if it is back in China there is no way this will happen, is UPS messing up or is this actually where my package is?
1 AnswerOther - Business & Finance1 decade agoI'm in an awkward situation.?
I have managed to convince myself that I have feelings for my teacher at college, and every time I see her my heart sinks, I can't get her out of my mind, and I have dreams about us being together. At the same time I know how ridiculous it is. She is 33, I'm 18 and she has a husband. But I need some advice on how to get over it, is it a crush or what?
5 AnswersSingles & Dating1 decade agoWhat is wrong with me?
My life if average. I would say there is little drama in it, there are some times when you have the odd spout but nothing more than a bit of family trouble. Even though I'd like to think I have a pretty decent life I feel really depressed. At first I thought I just had a case of the blues but this feeling of being trapped and unaccomplished has been a round for some time. I get upset and envious when I hear that people are going into town to get drunk or going out for the day because I don't have much of a social life, which I don't think helps but didn't think it was that significant. I just feel I'm following the path of everyone else, I don't feel unique yet I feel I have obligations to go to the end and do what I must do to be practical. I know a lot of people have this feeling but what would you do in my position as I don't want to keep feeling like this forever.
3 AnswersMental Health1 decade agoHyperactive and then depressive moods.?
A few years ago, a grandmother of mine passed away. I'm not sure which condition was behind her death as a lot of it was kept secret from me. But the events leading up to her death involved me and her disinheriting my father, who had caused a huge amount of problems in both mine and her's life. Ever since i've questioned why me and my dad never grew close and it turns out that he never wanted my mum to have me in the first place, and since finding this out i've gone into a state of extreme mood swings. On some days I'm really hyper and feel like I could jump of the walls, and then the next I feel distraught, like my life's spiralling out of control, I've not self harmed or considered suicide as I always say that its the wrong thing to do. A lot of the time I want to be alone and seclude myself from everyone but when I do i think too much and make myself feel even sadder. There are just so many things contributing to the way I feel in my life right now which really doesn't help, but the mood sings are getting me into trouble with my family, who are tired of my angry outbursts, and my seclusion. I haven't talked to anyone because our family is very distant ever since my parents split up so we're more like a bunch of room mates rather than flats. I just want to know what these mood sings are, and how can I stop them :(

3 AnswersMen's Health1 decade agoShould prisoners be given the vote?
like the great rehabilitation vs punishment debate in prison, should prisoners be given the vote. I say no!
I personally wouldn't spit on most criminals, my wife's a prison officer and the things i hear from her and what she sees in prison is disgraceful, and yet the government are considering giving prisoners the vote, is this a joke?

9 AnswersDesktops1 decade agoIs it true Brown's selling Port Dover?
Although I'm sceptical of the Sun news paper, it had an article on its website which claims that Brown, who's administrative skills are on a similar level to a child, is selling Dover to, of all people, the French. Is it even legal for him to sell this land to the French, why would he let the French get their first piece of our land since 1066, is this more pressure from the EU bureaucrats, what do you think?
10 AnswersGovernment1 decade agoIs it time for revolution? (UK)?
I ask this out of pure curiosity. Particularly with many of the political scandals we've witnessed as of late, and the simple fact that we cannot trust politicians anymore, is it time for a clean-up? or is it simply time for complete and utter change? If so, would the public have the balls to stand up and say that's what we want, if they wanted it of course!
18 AnswersOther - Politics & Government1 decade agoIf anyone owns a PNY geforce 9800 gt i need your help :)?
I'm interested in buying a PNY 9800 gt graphics card, because i'm on a bit of a budget, it looks like a reasonable card for the price. Could anybody possibly let me know the actual length of the card, as there seems to be a lack of this detail on just about every website and youtube video, the card looks pretty long and just want to make sure it will fit in my case, thanks for the help.
3 AnswersAdd-ons1 decade agoShould politics be added to the school curriculum?
I know a lot of teens soon to be 18 who have no interest in politics, and have no idea of any of the political parties our country has. Should politics be added to the curriculum in order that we are not the last generation to be voters, because it is important that we try to maintain this last bit of democracy we have left here in the UK.
I say this because i think that it is important that all citizens of the state vote and ensure they have a least a say in who leads us, Whether they be corrupt or not.
5 AnswersPrimary & Secondary Education1 decade agoWhy has Labour still got a nice sized group of supporters?
I was horrified the other day to hear that there is a chance that the next Parliament could be hung. Why are people still voting Labour, seriously what is the attraction of economic destruction, lies, cheating, and idiocy, the country is about to implode from poor politics and yet you still vote, i must know why? P.S. i'm not a Tory fan either.

2 AnswersInternational Organizations1 decade agoAre we missing something here?
The Tories have backed out of their referendum promise after the Czech leader officially signed the document ratifying the treaty. The Tory leader has apparently said that it is no longer possible to hold a referendum as you cannot undo what has already been done. Is it me, or are the EU holding something against all the sceptic member's governments, because if this is democratic, then why can't we have our say, are they threatening us with war, or trade embargoes? what do you think?
10 AnswersPolitics1 decade agoWhy can't people accept that the BNP are a legitimate political party?
Sorry guys, i'm no BNP fan myself but for God's sake the more you give them attention the more you feed what they crave. If the party is made aware of then thats it, they get more and more votes. Nick Griffin's appearance on the BBC could make or break the party, lets just hope it breaks him!
11 AnswersPolitics1 decade agoAnyone agree tht its sad tht Britain has been fed to the wolves?
Our country was the most powerful nation on earth not a hundred years ago, now our economy has dropped below France, and not 3 years ago we were far wealthier than them.
The people sat in the houses of parliament claim to work for us, yet when they allow things like the release of the lockerby bomber to happen they give us no legitimate reason for it when we demand one. It worries me to think that these men and women sit in their offices thinking they can continue fooling us Brits into believing we're in a democracy because no one has the guts to bring them down...Its time for our country to remind our government and parliament that a democracy means the PEOPLE RULE, not a bunch of over paid morons who dont listen to what we want, ever! A democracy does not come by just picking the government in a secret ballot, it comes from listening to what the people want!
