Question #2:

in DESPERATE need of car advice?

I'm 17 years old, my parents got me a 2001 ford focus from a nearby dealer called Cars R Us they said that it had been inspected by a mechanic and it was up to date on all of the checkups.. despite the minor small problems it already had (broken handles, no stereo, scratches and dings etc) it sounded nice and quiet and i really loved the color anyway we managed to get the price down to 2950 plus lisence and tax so about 3400 total. I didn't have my lisence when we first purchased the car ( about 2 months ago) so i didn't drive it around lot to see what the problem was. But a couple weeks after we bought it it all started. The problem usually starts with all the electric turning off (including guages, lights, stereo) then sometimes at the same time the engine will jump like the car is restarting. First we took it back and the dealer kept it for 2 weeks and claimed to have fixed the problem with the computer. Supposidly the computer had been spitting out random codes. They restarted the computer and gave it back to us. The next week it did the same thing and we figured the dealer wasnt going to do anything for us so we decided to take it to the ford.($1028.00) (I have paper work from every repair made) They discovered a broken collant hose that was about to burst, and some other minor problems. Gave it back to us another week later and the engine started to shake and be really loud so we took it to goodyear and they discovered a broken cylinder in the car. ($628) and again with the electric when we took it back to ford another 200 or so.. we've also put in a new stereo ($230) and taken it to jiffy lube ($244) We've taken it into the ford a total of 3 times and they are stumped. sometimes the car doesn't act up at all. For now i have it and its still acting up.

I'm so stuck in a rut my parents don't want to deal with this anymore so i'm on my own. I've thought about trading it but don't want to lose more then 2k of what we put into the vehicle, and i also would like to keep the stereo.. is it possible to fix? or could i get a working car for one that barely does?
I dont know a lot of people who know about cars so any advice would be deeply appreciated.

Question #5:

How is Obama going to plug the leaks?

Obama Insider Former Car Czar Rattner Rats on Obama

Former Obama administration car czar Steven Rattner is coming out with a new book that depicts him swashbuckling through the financial crisis and also shows Obama as "out to get" the car companies and the administration making political decisions about how to deal with bankrupt automakers GM and Chrysler.

Rattner, a former New York Times reporter in Washington, made a mint as a hedge funder, became a massive Democratic donor and returned to D.C. as Obama's point man during the bailout and takeover of GM and Chrysler. He's since been ensnared in a SEC investigation into his firm's efforts to leverage political influence and favors to win government investment deals.

But Rattner's working on his image. He signed up Obama golf partner and billionaire New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg as a client and now is launching his book "Overhaul" about his time in the administration.

The Huffington Post got a leaked copy and there is plenty there that will play into this years' elections - especially since this is the first kiss-and-tell book from the Obama team.

Key points from the article and excerpts:

-When Obama was told of the plan to pay GM CEO Rick Wagoner a $7.1 million severance package after Obama ordered that he be sacked, Rattner writes: "Suddenly I felt that I was indeed in the presence of a community organizer..."

-Rattner describes presidential political adviser David Axelrod coming to car meetings armed with poll data to support the takeover and Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel identify Congressmen in whose districts large Chrysler facilities were located.

-"[Obama's economic team] veered dangerously close to having the government take control of the two most troubled banks, Bank of America and Citigroup."

-"If his team had linked arms with the outgoing administration, as President Bush's advisers had proposed, billions of dollars could well have been saved."

-Rattner says Chief of Staff Rahm Emanual dictated Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner's schedule, public appearances and staff selections.

-He says Obama economic advisers Larry Summers and Austan Goolsbee and FDIC Chair Sheila Bair as enemies who slowed down decision making with infighting

-Rattner said Obama was frustrated with the auto companies from the start: "Why can't they make a Corolla?" he has Obama asking.

Question #6:

What's a good bike for college?

Hi all,

It's almost time for me to leave the coop and fly out of the nest, into the college world. I anticipate going to college out-of-state and therefore need a bike to get around (most colleges I am looking at don't offer parking to first-years) campus. Northern California seems to be really good with their public transit, so I'm not worried about not having a car.

I'm fixated on "cruiser" bikes (the bikes that look very vintage.. think Peewee Herman's red bike), but I'm not sure if there's any downside to using them around campus. Can anyone recommend a sturdy, stable bike to get me through the thick and thin?

Thanks!

Question #7:

What is she trying to prove?

Me and a girl (european exchange student, if that is even important) work together at our student job on campus, and we HAD been friends for over 2 years. So LONG story short I fell for her but she wasn't interested. After I asked her out the first time and got rejected, about a month later she started being really friendly with me eventually she asked me to help her look for a car. Well a few weeks and a lot of my time later she had a car and I had helped register it smog check the works. Well I stupidly saw all this time she was spending with me as a sign she liked me so i asked her out again, WRONG. A close friend pointed out to me that this was just one time out of MANY where this girl was just using me because she knew I liked her and how when ever I needed something she was always busy. I am more ashamed that I let myself become her personal lap dog and let her walk all over me. I could deal with her not reciprocating my feelings but I was angry that she abused my kindness like that because she knew I liked her. I have learned a lot about her since then that i did not realize before that would probably turn any guy off of her (she is a user, a tease, manipulator, future gold digger,etc..). She has shown her true colors and it ain't pretty. So now skip forward a couple months and believe me I am no longer her 'go to guy' for everything thing. I don't even speak to her outside of work. she probably still thinks we are BFF's like we used to be but she is strictly a co-worker to me now. we are back in school and all of a sudden she is dressing really 'scandalous', 'revealing', 'trashy', 'slutty', whatever you want to call it. I know she is doing it to attract attention from 'whoever' at school but the way she dresses in completely inappropriate for work. and no matter how much I don't like her now it is hard not to stare when she dresses like that. Why would she even dress this way around me, especially with the awkward past we have? (she can dress however she wants at school but I don't appreciate her being that way around me at work) Besides would you dress that way around a guy who probably still has unresolved/mixed/confusing feelings about you even though you don't like him?

P.S. I may not have to worry about it though because I have informed my supervisor about her inappropriate work attire.

Question #8:

Can my friends seriously call 911 on me for being suicidal and wanting to go away?

First off, I posted this earlier, so sorry to those who have already seen this question.

I am 24 years old and over the past 9 months, I have attempted suicide countless times after being r
aped. The police and ambulance have been here numerous times. I've been involuntarily admitted ot th epsych ward a couple times.. Diagnosed with Major Depresison, Post traumatic stress disorder and Borderline Personality Disorder..

I need to get away. I need a few days to myself. I am suicidal. I think about it a lot. I have the means, the pills that I need. I have all that. My friends said that if I leave, they'll call 911. And the thing is, 911 would probably take it seriously since the police where I live, they know me and they kno what has gone on.

I don't know what to do. I may kill myself, but I need space to myself.

Can my friends seriously call 911 if I just go away for a bit ? I don't want no police getting involved or searching for me, I want none of it

And if they do call the police, will they just let things be. I don't want noone looking for me. I know my history speaks for itself though, so will they go by what happened in the past or will they let it be. I need god damn time to myself

I don't know where I would go, or how long. I don't know i fI would definetely commit suicide, maybe, but I don't know. The thoughts are there..

I don't want to put my friends in this position but I want to just get away for a while. I have a car and I just want to get in it and go. Can the police just ignore it if my friends call.. I don't want the police looking for me because of my past suicide attempts. Would they take into consideration the past serious suicide attempts or just focus on now

Question #9:

Question #10:

Would you be with a man that admits to beating up his ex?

My boyfriend admitted to me that he has gotten into a domestic dispute before with the mother of his children. He explained it to me in detail. Please read the details and tell me if you think this man is someone I should get rid of:

He was 19 years old (now 37). He had left his gf in the house while he and a friend went to push his car to the shop. At his house was a Valentines Day card from a young girl that liked him (he worked at a local roller skating rink & had "fans". The card was written in Spanish and said "Te amo mi amore" (sp). His ex understood Spanish and was angry. When he got home from pushing the car she jumped in his face. He asked her to leave, then went to the restroom. He walked out and she hit him in his eye. He says it was a reaction, but he punched her back with a left and a right. She fell, and before he knew it she grabbed a hand full of his crotch & started squeezing. He said he punched her repeatedly in her head until she let go. Once she let go, he told her to get out of his apartment, and she grabbed his crotch again...he started hitting her in the head again and eventually she stopped.

He said he then went back into the bathroom to tend to his scratches. That's when he heard his friend yell "She has a butcher knife". He came out the bathroom, and fought her...beating her head against a wall until she dropped the knife. He then forcibly removed her from his house and locked the door.

My boyfriend said that she called her parents and they took her to the hospital and had to have stitches in her head. He also said that the law in California was different. He says that before the OJ trial, whomever was the first person to swing went to jail and the person who was hit first could beat the other person up as it is considered self defense. (I don't know if this is true, because I was in high school then, and he was in college).

He also says that he and his ex both took martial arts together and had formal knife fighting training, so he knew that under the right circumstances his ex could take him.

I asked him would he have done it again...and he says..."if anyone pulls a knife on me, I'm gonna beat their azz...man, woman, or martian."
I forgot to add that she called the police to the hospital, but they refused to take a report because she admitted to hitting him first and the would have been force to take HER to jail.

I just asked my coworker about this law, and she said that it is true...in the late 80's and early 90's the first person to throw a punch was considered the aggressor, and the other person had a right to defend themeself before the OJ trial.

Question #11:

How can I manage to get through the first day of school?

I'm in high school.There are only 2 lunches this year.I only have 2 friends in the entire school,my boyfriend and friend.I have 1st lunch they have 2nd lunch.There will be over 500 kids in each lunch.The guidance counselor said she couldn't change it.Our lunch room isn't big enough for everyone.I don't know how to deal with being alone at lunch in a crowd that big.The guys are perverted.My school it isn't that easy making new friends cause people are always hating on each other.I have a car but I can't go out to eat because I'm not a senior.

Question #12:

I am spoiled if my first car is a lexus?

I turned 16 at the end of last year and got my license a couple months ago. The day after that, my parents bought me a 2007 certified pre-owned Lexus rx350 (SUV), with leather interior, built-in nav system, moon roof, the whole deal. It still looks almost brand new Am I spoiled (even if I'm ranked 3rd in my class at a really good private school and I am a nationally ranked swimmer)?

Question #13:

How would you handle it if your boyfriend cried after sex?

I was the first woman he dated after breaking up with his ex-fiance. We had known eachother for years, and were friends while he was dating this woman. She broke up with him and crushed him months before they were to be married. I had always wanted him, but wasn't going to steal him from another woman.

I eventually decided to start going out with him and we eventually slept together. We spent the weekend together in his house and it was supposed to be a weekend long sex-fest. It was beautiful, we went out to the nicest restaurant I have ever been to. He started seducing me in the car on the way home...then we got home and we had sex for hours. Then he laid there in bed and didn't want to be touched. Then he got up and sat on the floor in the fetal position and started crying. When I asked him what was wrong, he said I was the first woman he slept with since his break up and he felt like he was cheating. And he cried like a baby. He's a friend first, so I talked to him as a friend and calmed him down. The next day he was able to perform without visible guilt. He was amazing in bed the entire time.

I'm hurt, and if it were any other guy...I would be out like a light...but I have waited 5 years to get this man. I have hurt every time he tells me he did something special with that woman or every pic of them on his Facebook or Myspace tore something out of me. I'm not sure if I should stick around and be his rock...or leave him alone until he heals.

Question #16:

Question about repair on an '88 Toyota Supra?

Okay, there's a guy that wants to sell it because he got a better car. This will be my official first car that i own, the car i drive now is in my mom's name.
The guy said it doesn't run currently because the spark plug coil is bad, or something to that degree, basically, the spark plugs aren't firing. It has modifications such as exhaust, engine and such. It has an straight 6 engine, automatic transmission, rear wheel drive.
I have knowledge about what to do, to a degree, i'm in automotive school. I know that it'll probably need some new fluids, it's been sitting for 2-3 years. Gas, brake fluid, transmission fluid, and oil will all be replaced. Any idea on prices that i'm going to be spending or how long it'll be before it'll be running? Also, any tips on what to do
everything that i need, i'll do myself, i could probably use it as a grade in school

Who wants to try a "simple" math problem?

No, this is NOT a homework problem.

I was watching the British car show Top Gear. Jeremy, one of the British hosts, practiced for 2 days and finally drove a 4-door, diesel Jaguar sedan around the Nuremberg Ring in 10 minutes, at an average speed of 78 miles per hour.

Sabine, his German driving coach, drove the Jaguar once, and her time (by the way, this was her first time in the Jag) her time was 9 minutes.

Question #20:

I have a problem and i need help/ my cousin fancys me?

my account's keep getting deleted,i need help and opinions from the public before i go seek help or confront my family so please do not report this as abuse. i need your help ?

ill start at the beginning..
i am male 21 now
my cousin is female and 12...
bare with me i am not a pedophile, please just read it all.

when
i was 8 my cousin was born and
i looked after her all the time as her dad was always at work,
i done all the jobs her dad was meant to do, i changed her diapers,
i washed her and always played with her at the park,
then my uncle moved away for work
and i was heartbroken and missed her for years, now i only have just regained contact with them,
and i
went over to visit her for a few weeks and the entire time she would
not stop cuddling up to me which is normal but then
she tried to kiss me on
the lips a few times, then more and more
then she would stare at me,
now i never rrealizeduntil she started
giving me this pure look of lust for me that i only have seen in adults,
and it got me really worried, but i took no notice.


after her birthday night out she was all over me which i felt uncomfortable,
then in the back of the car on the way home she later grabbed my manhood, and my family where
in the car so i paid no attention and pretended it never happened and i was scared someone saw that.

she also kept trying to get me to touch her bye picking her up
one day i helped her down from a high wall and i put my left hand on her bum to support her weight and i accidentally pputmy hand between her bum ccheeksbecause she had a skirt on
and she was wearing a thong which is not right for a 12yo girl btw.

Anyway
she whispered in my ear don't put me down and kissed my ear, i knew where my hand was so i dropped her out of panic.

wrestling in the garden?, at first it was just fun
but then she would try get me to pin her down,
and days to follow she would do stuff to try and get me to wrestle with her and again she would try and get me to pin her down.

Then i started to worry more and more until we where watching a movie on my bed and she had
her legs over me, which is ok but then crept them up until her legs where pressed tightly in between and against
my manhood and i was wearing mp pj bottoms naturally when something fumbles around that
area you get a reaction, and as i did and i was shocked so i moved her legs away but
she put them back,

so i turned on my left side then so did she and she pressed herself
against me deliberately, moments later i knew she could feel my manhood i was embarrassed and felt shame but could not move.
then she stopped watching the movie and went to the end of the bed she lied on her front on the
end of my bed and put her hands underneath her lower body, and as i looked in wonder of why she is at the end of the bed i saw her
bum clenching slowly,
then i realized she was masturbating in front of me.. she did
this another 2times in the weeks i was there.and a third occasion she called for
me from upstairs as i walked in her room
she was lying on her bed only her top half was showing she was wearing a bra, but she was smiling at me and she told me in a cute voice
I'm getting changed cuz and she smirked, i was confused only to realize where her hands wher and i pretended
it never happened for days.
then a few times after she would try and see me naked like she burst in my room
when i was getting changed after i told her to waWaitet the door

but she came in and i pulled my trousers up in time but she stopped smirked and smiled at me then
went into my shower which dosent have a door so i had to leave the room.
or she would jump on me when i was lieing on my bed and she
would try sit on top of me and i had to keep getting up and pretending to go to the bathroom.

now I'm away i cant stop thinking of her!! ?,

i want to talk to her, to see her, to be around her
and i just want to hold her,
she is on my mind everyday and i cant stop dreaming about her.

i have loved 2 girls before and i know what the beginning feelings of love feel like,
but my feelings for my cousin
are extremely strong for some reason now and i wish they weweren't

i would not dream of doing anything until she is of age but i have fallen in love with her ?
is there something wrong with me,
do i need help ?

i feel hatred for myself for having sexuall dreams for a girl of her age, i fear i might do something stupid like telling her dad but how would he react to that ? but i deeply love her and want to be with her.
i do not want this feeling or dreams for her but i cannot help it, i go to sleep and there she is
i need your help please,

she is also very mature for her age she knows all about sex, she is defo sexually active, she has seen a lot of sex on tv, she has the maturity of an 18 year old girl she dosent go to the park or have sleepovers she watches sex and the city and stuff. i need help
