Would you support raising an oil tax to prevent CO2 levels from rising?

People complain the the government taxes are about 48% on a gallon of gas. If they were smart, they would realize that fuel hurts our planet and requires an impact cost. This cost should be born by the consumer so those of us who bike can breate clean air and have less traffic.

Guys & Girls:I know there are 100 of stories like mine but I REALLY need advice!?

I am 15 and I have an ex boyfriend. We were together for 10 months and we were very close. He made me laugh and smile. We had our fights but we still loved each other. Around 8 months he found out his dad had cancer. It was very hard to keep him happy. He was always sad or mad. I completely understand why he was upset but it was hard for me to sit there and watch him cry and not know how to make him feel better. Around 10 months wanted to have sex because we though it was the right time. We did and my parents found out. They flipped on me. They forced me to break up with him. I was not allowed to see him or talk to him at all. I missed him so much so I decided to talk to him. I wanted to see him again so I invited him over my house while my parents were at work. Nothing happened. We sat and talked and caught up with each other. But then my mom walked through the front door. He hid behind the couch and left when she went up stairs. The next day she found out he was at the house and flipped on me again. This time she made sure I could not have any contact with him. We did not talk for 2 months. He started to hate me and be all mean around me. He would ignore me and then one of my best friends told me that he started saying things like he found someone else and that he does not care about me. Everyone said I should move on so I dated another guy about 2 months after the break up and my ex started dating another girl. I broke up with my new boyfriend after 2 weeks because I was still in love with my ex. And my ex broke up with his girlfriend around the same time. We started talking again and I told him I still loved him. He was kind of a jerk at first but then he told me he loved me too and we started talking and hanging out. He gave me the cutest things for Valentine’s day and was really sweet. He had his moments when he was mean and a jerk but they weren’t horrible. No one’s perfect. But it was getting worse. He started ignoring me and walking away from me he did not wait for me after class or show me that he loved me. I asked him if he still loved me and cared about me and he got all mad at me and said yeah I do so stop annoying me about it just because I don’t show it. He kept saying that he didn’t care that I was there and threw a bottle cap at my head. My friends kept asking me why I was with him and I said because I love him and I know it’s a faze. But then it was our anniversary and we usually write each other a note. I wrote him one and he told me that he didn’t have time to write me one because he was cleaning his room. I was really upset I couldn’t believe he didn’t care. The first time we went out he was always so excited and his notes were so romantic. He has changed so much after his dad got sick and we broke up. I just wanted the old him back. Every time I tried to talk to him he just walked away so I ended it. He seemed pretty mad and has been a jerk to me ever since. But he told my best friend that he has changed and he knows it he just doesn’t know how to make it better. He thinks I broke up with him because I like someone else. That is true but I only thought he was sweet. The reason I broke up with my ex is because I wanted to see if he would fight for me and he hasn’t yet. I am still in love with him and I miss him soo much. What should I do? All answers will be appreciated. Thankss!:) Sorry this is really long!

Is this a good yugioh deck?

even with just those monster cards, you won't get much of a deck, no theme around here is seen, unless its 2000 and the game just came out a few years ago, and even then its no good. btw exxod master of the guard is 4000 defense and not 5000. the starter decks themselves are ok, but you need 3 of the same in order to get anything half-decent, and even then you won't get much

Are Conservatives praising President Obama now that gas has dropped below $3.40/gallon?

Petroleum demand is dropping because of the obama depression. If your messiah had his way, energy prices would "necessarily skyrocket."

GUYS: Help me! Is he a player AND would he go for me?

So this one guy gets alot of girls, yet he hasn't dated any of them. His last girlfriend was 2 years ago (it was his first or second girlfriend ever) and he's 22 going on 23 right now. Girls attempt to flirt but he doesn't seem fazed by them. He doesn't show much interest in them. I asked my good guy friend how to stand out among the masses of girls that like him, and my friend said to just be unique. I don't know how to be unique. The only thing I have going for me are my looks and my practical and smart way of thinking. Btw I'm 19 if that matters.

Help Mums with constipated toddlers?

My 3 year old has been going through on and off again constipation for about two years now. She lives on stool softeners and often needs suppositories. We have been to doctor after doctor after doctor all with the same result "nothing wrong with her, its just a behavioural thing...she will grow out of it". Then she seems to and she gets good with her pooing for a couple of weeks but always relapses. We have tried EVERYTHING!!!! Going back to nappies, giving her the options of using toliet, potty or nappy or even just going in her pants (as long as she goes!!!) We have tried being patient and gentle about it. We have tried ignoring it so as to not make such a big deal. I admit we have even tried being tough over it "If your tummy hurts like that you need to poo! sit on that toliet until you go" (this one was one doctors advice but it didnt work). We have increased her fibre giving her lots of fruits, prunes and juices that might make her poo, We make her drink more water, We cut right back on dairy. But nothing works. I dont know how to help her get over this problem she holds on until her tummy is cramping all the time and still refuses to go. I end up having to use suppositories which she hates and makes the problem worse because its adding to the fear aspect.. And every time I take her to the doctor its the same result, examination of her privates only to conclude that nothings wrong. More talk about increasing her fibre and water intake and stronger medication. But nothing works for long and its driving me nuts. Is this really just a faze? Or should we demanding a referal to a specialist. I did ask to see a specialist last time I went to the doctor but the doctor insisted it was very unlikely there was a need for more medical attention and we should just try giving her more lactulose and water. Aggghhhh

Should I follow through with this? Do you know anyone that's done this in the mil?

Well to make a long story short I've wanted to be in the military for a long long time and I'm only 14(15 in just a few days) and anyways I want to be in the usmc. My brother in law is and my grandpa was a 16 year Vietnam veteran.... So b4 I go on let me just say it's not just a faze, I'm Definatly not changing my mind. But the only problem is I have "asthmatic symptoms" but not asthma. Ive never even had an asthma attack BUT, I do have an untapped but it never gets used and it is for breathing but not for asthma, for allergies. So could I still join? I'm afraid MEPS won't take me. Also, I have allergies to peanut oil and peanut butter (which is very commen for people with allergies so hopefully they've changed there cooking in food) . Will they let me join? Also, my brother n law said more then likely yes Bcuz MEPS only knows what you tell them, but be honest 2. I guess I'm just afraid that I'm come this far 2 meet my dream and that I won't be eligible.... Anyone got any help? And should continue to follow my dream? Also, have you ever known someone that has lied at MEPS with asthma or anything (even tho i dont!)?Thanks. Semper fi!

Fedora 15 seemed to have frozen on boot.?

I was installing some stuff, mostly from source. I was trying to get wine up, from source. And gimp 2.7.2. I installed the build essentials, and when i tried to install more of wines build essentials, archive manager refused to show files in a tar file i downloaded. So I logged out, to reboot. But it froze, so i did a hard shutdown. Then I tried to reboot, it froze on the loading screen with fedoras emblem. What happened, and is there a way to reboot without a hard shut-down. I don't want to replace my hard-drive if it fails from all this hard shut-downs.

Honda accord help...PLEASE HELP.?

A bad fuel pump relay (aka the Main Relay) is the most common cause of your problem. The fuel pump relay is located in the top of the dash, near the left air vent. Try this: while the engine is cranking but not starting, use your left hand to deliver a sharp whack to the top of the dashboard above the left air vent. It might actually start. Not kidding.
