Have you ever taken a job, and it turned out that your duties were completely different than you had been led to believe?

Once. I thought I was too smart for this to happen to me but I took an unusually good position for someone who did not come up through the ranks at a two year college. Turns out it was a garbage can job, which means they must have gone around the office asking everyone what the worst part of their job was and then combined them into one position. The other part that became obvious somewhat later was that I was to take the blame whenever the VP screwed up. I lasted one academic year, shortly after I left the VP had to take her own heat and left too.

I am having a LED and i want to control the led through my computer, how it can be connected?

Banning guns outright in the UK has led to an increase in gun crime - discuss?

Crime is increasing with or without the law. More guns, more crime, more deaths. The “nutters“ never belonged to a gun club anyway, if your committing a crime that needs a gun you did not join a gun club to get one. It's always true that people kill people not guns, but without the tools to do the job your more likely to survive, 9 times more likely

What led you to be most suspicious of the official 911 story?

I always thought it strange that the media never talked much about the plane that crashed into the pentagon. The one that crashed into an open field in the hills of Pennsylvania got all kinds of attention. I do not know what that means but it always caused a little suspicion in me.

How effective was the US-led missile strike on Syria? How much damage was done to the Assad regime, assuming they all met their targets? Was it more of a propaganda move than a strategic one?

All it did was blow up some unused real estate. It certainly bolstered Assad's regime by allowing him to chalk up a major victory by claiming that nearly all missiles had been shot down. And it was all about propaganda and saving face by withdrawing from yet another overseas misadventure with a show of force.

Does Kobe "really" regard the Olympic Gold more so than an NBA title( more importantly a title which he led)

Wanting to win a gold medal at the olympics shows national pride. Obviously something you do not have. So no if you do not care for your country why would you enter the Olympics. Oh i hate to inform you the the U.S.A. did not win the gold medal last time. Oh yeah i do not care for your pic on your avitar.

Do you think slavery led to self-esteem issues in the black community?

Interesting thought. There are main reasons for low self esteem so I imagine that could be one. I believe that the conditions you spoke of could of resulted in strong cultural grouping and even high self esteem for some as a result of that. This topic could be a thesis paper or a book. "People with poor self-esteem often rely on how they are doing in the present to determine how they feel about themselves. They need positive external experiences to counteract the negative feelings and thoughts that constantly plague them. Even then, the good feeling (from a good grade, etc.) can be temporary." "Where Does Self-Esteem Come From? Our self-esteem develops and evolves throughout our lives as we build an image of ourselves through our experiences with different people and activities. Experiences during our childhood play a particularly large role in the shaping of our basic self-esteem. When we were growing up, our successes (and failures) and how we were treated by the members of our immediate family, by our teachers, coaches, religious authorities, and by our peers, all contributed to the creation of our basic self-esteem." *

What aspects of Haskell led to its rise in popularity among experts?

There's a few of different things I've seen:

y r all ron paul's supports blind & y is he thinking he led in most polls when he is losing big time in votes?

We've been saying it for months: he's this year's Howard Dean. A massive internet-based grassroots movement does not actually equate into votes, no matter how often they post. We saw it in 2004, we are seeing it in 2008.

The “race for sunlight’ in plants led to the evolution of trees, the tallest living things in existence. But?

while yes, there are downfalls to being a highly tall tree, in the end, it's about the main thing they need, which is sunlight. take a tropical Rainforests for instance, a more radical example but clearly shows why it would be better to be taller. if a tree is very short in the rain forest, hardly any sunlight will reach to it. if there is no sunlight, the tree can not live, so it dies. however, if a tree is tall enough, it will get enough sunlight and thrive in the jungle. obviously in this example, it would be better to be tall. i would think i would rather be tall and top heavy, than short and dead

If I'm requesting the court to dismiss my attorney from my PI case can I at the same time file a motion requesting monitary sanctions against the attorney for fabrication of now proven to be false evidence which led to sanctions unknown to me?

Probably your best avenue against your attorney would be through his Bar. Your new attorney might ask that any sanctions imposed against you by the court be imposed instead against your attorney, but that is not an area you want to tackle yourself.For a lawyer to knowingly mislead a court is a big deal, and if you can convince this lawyer's Bar that he did just that, they will likely run with it.

What circumstances led Rajneesh (Osho) to gain more popularity in the West as compared to India where he was born?

Osho is certainly more popular in India than in amy other country. More books and audio video sell in India. More Meditation events happen in India. I travel around the world and I know this personally. His disciples who have monopolised his discourses in all forms in the western countries have not organised Meditation events or open new Osho Centers. More centers were made to close down than opening new ones. Their dry prohibitive attitude discouraged so many enthusiastic Osho lovers in the West to stop sharing Osho vision with freedom. I am very sure that the new generation is going to be very different and will make Osho like wildfire. His time is coming

It is said that PM Modi's decision of sudden lockdown led to the migrant issue in India. But it can also be said that at that time the situation was so bad and he must not even have thought that the migrants will take such a huge step?

Your argument is relevant only if there is an incompetent and vision less govt is there. If PM of a country is so week and incompetent than sufferings like the has been facing for last two - three months are inevitable and the coming future would be even more worst

1775 cries for “No Taxation Without Representation” led to a revolution.?

First of all I dont know what you consider rich to be, so here goes. I work my butt off, I went into debt, sold personal belongings etc. I know make about 300 thousand per yr. In federal, state and local, social security and disability I pay over 100k each yr in taxes.I pay more than enough. “average“ taxpayers live in this country and should pay taxes. It kills me, you tell me because I make more, I should have no problem paying an increasingly larger amount of what I make, but when it comes time to vote, you tell me I am no better than anyone else. Here's the real problem, this used to be a country of opportunity if you were willing to work, now it's become what will the government give me. Believe me, I had nothing, but by relying on the one person that could change my lot in life, me, I changed my life, and so could you. If you wait on the government or someone else to make your life better, keep waiting. Remember this, the world was here first, it does not owe you anything.
