What's your opinion on Romney's 47% remark?
Conservatives: I've heard Limbah say similar to this for years now. Doesn't this about reflect the opinion of liberals of the right?
Swing people: Does this change your opinion of Romney at all?
Liberals: Many have said that this may well be the statement that costs Romney the election. Isn't this a little over optimistic?
For those of you living under a rock here is a link to remark.
7 AnswersElections9 years agoCan you help me find something else to train in?
A couple of years back I was training in Capoeira and I loved every minute of it. It was a very social environment, it was fun, I increased my flexibility, speed, coordination and because we would do daily Rodas, cardiovascular endurance. I want to get back into it. The problem is that the only studio in the state is running on a schedule I can't reconcile with my work schedule. I want train in something similar that I can actually fit into my schedule, maybe something a little bit more common that would have more than just one studio in the state. I've tried a Taikwondo and Wing Chun and they were definitely more practical in self defense but they just didn't have the same social atmosphere or the same physical demands
2 AnswersMartial Arts9 years agoWhere can I find the fuse on a Maytag Performa Dryer?
I'm not sure where to find the model number either. It's an electric dryer and I found the fuse next to what I'm amusing is the heating coil and it's giving no resistance so it's good. I'm told that electric dryers will have two fuses, I need help.
2 AnswersMaintenance & Repairs9 years agoCan you help me with a Windows Vista activation issue?
I'm running a computer that I bought in Singapore(Compaq) that origionally came with Windows Vista(I don't have the recovery disk). I've just reinstalled Vista using a recovery disk from my friend(Dell recovery disk) and am trying to activate it using the key registered to this computer. Vista won't take it. How do I get this thing activated.
Notes: Getting a recovery disk from HP is proving nigh impossible. The North American tech support refers me to Singapore and vice versa.
I really don't want to have to go out and spend $100 on a copy of Windows

4 AnswersInvesting10 years agoWhat would cause a car to immediatly shut down after starting?
I've been working on this 99 Subaru Legacy Outback. For the last couple of weeks it's had a check engine light on it. I checked the code and it told me that the #4 cylinder is misfiring. First I put in some fuel cleaner, that didn't do any good. So the next thing I tried is replace the spark plugs and cables. As soon as I did this the car started to shut down immediately after starting unless I keep feeding it gas. So what could cause this? What can I check?

1 AnswerHobbies & Crafts10 years agoIs there anything I can do to get these guys to stop calling?
For the last 6 months or so I've gotten almost daily phone calls from these people with incredibly thick Indian accents. Their numbers and the organizations they work for keep changing but their voices and the fact that they want my credit card information don't. I've asked them to remove me from they're call list on multiple occasions and they just stopped calling on behalf of "Education Ambassadors". I've added 15 of their numbers to my reject list and they keep calling from different or unknown numbers. On top of this the numbers I have seen and managed to add to my reject list are completely bogus.

2 AnswersOther - Advertising & Marketing1 decade agoShould I list my job experience or should I list none?
I've held almost a dozen jobs(on average i stay for around 6 months) in the last four years and I just recently got fired for the first time. I've been searching for another job for the last month and I haven't been having any luck. After getting termed and having the work experience that I do, would it be easier to find a job right now if I didn't list any job experience? How often do employers check on your background to see where you worked, when hiring for entry level positions?
3 AnswersOther - Careers & Employment1 decade agoCan someone answer questions about mylar holograms?
A couple of days ago I fond a booth in a shopping mall. Someone was selling these power bracelets. He was saying that it contained some kind of metal that created a mylar hologram. The mylar hologram was supposed to create some "frequency" that was in tune with your own and it was supposed to make you stronger and more flexible. The salesperson was unable to answer any of my questions to my satisfaction. What is a "mylar hologram"? What the hell does he mean be "frequency"? Is it electro magnetic or some kind of sound frequency? How does this work? Is there some source I could look at that could show me a double blind test for this mylar stuff? What kind of metal do they actually put in this thing?
