I had Vista installed on my laptop and only had it for 3 weeks then all the sudden when I boot it up one morning it said I was missing a .DLL file and and wouldn%26#039;t start windows and had to have Vista CD to repair but unfortunately it didnt come with one, so I decided to try to instal Windows 98 just to get on the desktop and have my unle come upgrade it with XP Pro, well I can%26#039;t log on Normal desktop but I can log on Safety mode but I have no CD-Rom drive inputed into the system or it cant read the hardware. Is there any drivers for it to be supported in 98?
MATSHITA DVD-RAM UJ-850S ATA Device supported for windows 98?
Order a repair cd from the laptop manufacturer. I%26#039;m sure Windows 98 does not support most of the components of the laptop.

How to annoy someone to move out?
well.. this may be a long story, I will try to make it short. About 2 years ago I met my husband and moved in (into the house he owns). His best friend also lives here( in the basement) and is the most disgusting pig I have ever met! examples... he dosent shower, he leaves food molding, is an alcholic (drinks about 15-30 beer a day) and leaves his empty beer cans all over the place.. just yesterday he left for work and forgot to turn his filthy toster oven off.. I smelled burning.. sure enough it was smoking hot because it was left on for about 6 hours before i noticed the smell. Anyways, my husband and I had a baby 11 months ago and i am worried for our safety. We plan to be moving in the next 6 months and gave the roomate notice. But it just isnt quick enough for me...im worried he will burn the house down or something. And my husband is too nice of a guy to give him the boot. Im just wondering if anyone has any ideas ... things I can do to annoy him so he will be more motivated
How to annoy someone to move out?
Try motivating your husband alittle. Don%26#039;t put up with having to live with someone else. Tell him that either he goes, or you and your child go. You need to tell him that you are uncomfortable, not willing to clean up behind this person, and that you are worried for your safety beings that he leaves things on and nearly causes house fires. I can assure you that if your husband loves you and his child he will do what it takes to see that this person leaves. Men don%26#039;t like to be the bad guy, they need alittle push sometimes. Help your husband find him another place to live this might ease the situation alittle.
Reply:Start bringing packing material into the house, now is a good time to start anyway. Put the majority of the material in the area he stays in, on his bed in his space, and start moving everything in that area as if that the space you chose to pack everything. Don%26#039;t leave anything for him to sit, sleep and get comfortable on, or in.
When you see him sitting around, tell him to go do something. When he%26#039;s sleeping vaccum, when he%26#039;s watching something on TV, vaccum, then when he turns up the volume, tell him to turn it down before he wakes up the baby.
Reply:Trying to annoy him... is just not adult at all. So... breath... and grow up a bit. Talk to your husband. Tell him that you want this man out. If he has been living there legaly you have to give him 30 days notice to get out of the house. Type up an eviction letter... and if he does not leave in the 30 days provided you can have the cops take him out (if it comes to that). Dont try to agrivate him to leave though... you see you are not setting a good example for your child (even though this is just a baby). You need to do this the adult way and get this man out of your house. You can tell him that there is no drinking in your home anymore. And you can tell him that he can not leave electrical apliances on or he will burn the house down. Tell him your problems... and then tell him to get out. If you are housing an alcoholic... you are enabeling him to continue down this bad path in life. If you kick him out... just maybe he will hit rock bottom and change his life around. I agree that he has to get out... just not the way you want to get rid of him. Good luck hun.
Reply:Watch a lot of sap movies, leave laundry around, play your music too loud, never have beer in the fridge even if he puts new ones in take them out.
Or just tell him %26quot;Look you egotistical slog, we are about to have a baby, you know this. We need the extra room, either you stop freeloading or pack your things right now, and get the helll out, because personally I am sick of you. I don%26#039;t want you here anymore. You have had enough time to find your own place, and if you haven%26#039;t then too bad, go live with someone else, or go home%26quot;.
Reply:Honey your fighting a lost battle, he is gonna remain nasty no matter what you do. I really feel bad for you because that would drive me crazy . The safety issue is very serious your husband should be more concerned with your safety as opposed to his friend. Just start talking about him on the phone with your friends when you know he can hear you let them know how nasty he is and how it is making your crazy see what happens.
Reply:You may want to talk to your husband about safety factors. He%26#039;s endangering not only you and your husband but your child as well. Try to convince your husband that %26quot;nice%26quot; could end up killing you all.
This guy needs help. Rather than trying to annoy him, maybe help him look for a place. He doesn%26#039;t sound like the type of person who will get annoyed easily if he has no problem living among trash and molding food. You%26#039;ve already given him notice so he knows he has to move. Why not do some research on your own, find some nice possibilities for him and talk about the kinds of bargains that are out there. Take him to look at some places and help him pack up and move. That way, you%26#039;re being helpful and you can preserve the friendship your husband has with him. You can also move him out of your home and be %26quot;nice%26quot; at the same time.
Reply:You can%26#039;t force him out right before the holidays. That%26#039;s just not going to happen.
So, you say you%26#039;ll be moving on in 6 months anyway?
I say wait it out. Be civil, be adult, and deal with it for a little while. It will all be over soon.
Reply:You have a baby. Should%26#039;t be an issue. Tell him how you feel and see what happens ask your husband to help.

Why are Albanians who stole Kosovo from the Serbs who owned it 100s of years getting recognition "Kosovoistan"
For the record, 650,000 Muslim Albanians got the %26quot;boot%26quot; from Albania. If only 10% were %26quot;bad apples%26quot;, that was 65,000 %26quot;bleep heads%26quot;. These %26quot;displaced persons%26quot; with their %26quot;we must take over as Allah wishes it%26quot; attitudes went all over Europe as %26quot;refugees%26quot;.
Many went to Kosovo,began ambushing Serb police, but press decided %26quot;Serbs BAD Albanians freedom Fighters%26quot;. Finally, Serbs went in with enough firepower to find cop killers AKA murderers. Then it really got nasty as Serbs were accused of gathering villages and executions en masse. Did Albanians do these things so Serbs would be blamed?
Kosovo had belonged to the Serbs for 200 years. All of a sudden the Albanian Muslims KLA were the good guys and Serbs dissed by the entire world. USA paints planes NATO colors and bombs Serbs from 16000 feet (for safety). This is almost 3 miles high...you cannot %26quot;see%26quot; what you hit...bad Bill Clinton idea.
Only ONE US plane was ever shot down and miraculously...the pilot survived and was rescued. A chinese Embassy got bombed presumably by US pilots flying for NATO...at least 3 Chinese killed...bad, old data said it was a Serb target!
Later Christian churches hundreds of years old were torched by Albanians. This continued until Albanians controlled Kosovo.
Now they say,%26quot;We%26#039;re Independent of Serbia%26quot;. The Albanians murdered and killed and burned and pilaged for this land. Pres. Bush and other nation heads endorsed the NEw Kosovo %26quot;Republic%26quot;. Only Spain said,%26quot;B*ll Shiite%26quot;. Spanish know Irish slang! But they also know Albanians! Source(s) Did you know the Mau Mau of Africa were also Muslims? Their slogan was,%26quot;Kill,kill,kill!%26quot; I think Kosovo Muslims have a lot in common with them. Who is advising Bush? These kind of decisions make people think Bush is retarded!
Why are Albanians who stole Kosovo from the Serbs who owned it 100s of years getting recognition %26quot;Kosovoistan%26quot;
The reality of the situation please. The serbs attempted to commit genocide against a group of people, they failed, they cannot be considered responsible enough to take charge any more, so independence was a must.
But the %26quot;stealing of land%26quot; has been going on since the beginning of time. Land means NOTHING, it is about people, and if people cannot control their own destiny, cannot go to work, bring their kids up and live life in peace then they need to do something.
No one seems to have a problem with the fact that the american people %26quot;stole%26quot; america from the british, or that the british %26quot;stole%26quot; it from tha native americans, or that the native americans might have %26quot;stolen%26quot; it from some other people etc.
No one seems to have a problem that France used to belong to the british, or that britain used to belong to the french, or that the british %26quot;stole%26quot;, ireland, wales, scotland, or that the swiss %26quot;stole%26quot; land from other countries.
I could go on all day about changes in borders, who used to own what, who owns what now. It all means nothing, it is the old way of looking at history, that dates and facts were everything, now it is about the people of this world who are trying to control their own destiny.
And it has nothing to do with religion either, some will use religion as an excuse to fight wars, but then bush, a christian invaded iraq, hitler a christian invaded europe, stalin a christian invaded europe, Milosevic a christian invaded the who of yugoslavia, look at the worst crimes committed in the past and you will generally see a christian influence, they may not have considered themselves christians such as stalin and hitler, but they were brought up in a christian world.
Why no say that christianity is the worst of all religions? Well the muslims probably do! But not in Kosovo, why? because they were saved from a cristian orthodox country by christian countries.
Reply:Please, do not judge us Americans by what Bush is doing. 70% of all Americans disapprove of him. He does NOT represent us. I fully think Kosovo belongs to the serbs!!! And the fact that Bush is yet involved in ANOTHER conflict is laughable. I guess he forgot about Iraq.
Reply:Why are Americans who stole land from Indians who owned it for thousands of years got recognition?
Life is not fair.
Reply:Kosovo was ripped off from Albania forcefully 90 years ago as Russia backed Serbia in this theft. European great powers approved it for political deals with Russia.
Kosovo has always been an Albanian land since 3000 years ago. The Serbs came down from the Caucasus region only at the 7th century A.D. They spreaded to the south, toward the Balkans invading the Albanian lands. However Kosovo was always populated by Albanians. Only by ethnic cleansing the Serbs managed to move to Kosovo and have small settlements there (they make up only 5-6% of the population in Kosovo)
Kosovo has been under the Ottoman empire just as all other Balcan nations were, Serbs included. Before the start of WWI, in 1913, Balkans just came out of the Balcanic wars which were done in order to reshape the boundaries of Balcans after the fall of the Ottoman Empire. The great powers unjustly gave for the first time Kosovo to Serbia as a political deal (Serbia had the support of Russia as they are both slavic nations) despite the upraising of the Albanians aginst this unjust division of the Albanian lands.
Historical facts left alone, if you like, the recent reality showed that Serbs denigrated and governed Kosovo with shovinism and terror. A lot of ethnic cleansing happened ever since Kosovo has been under Serbia. Many people killed, Albanian woman raped in order to change the ethnic composition of the population in Kosovo. A much uglier and barbar form of Apartheid happened there. If you know about South Africa Apartheid...
The indipendence of Kosovo is a merited solution, an unjust theft that Europe had in its conscience for the last 90 years. And Albanians have celebrated it yesterday with tears of joy. At last, freedom...!
Reply:Face it Serbs,
if some of your compatriots didn%26#039;t act atrociously in the 90%26#039;s,
this would unlikely be an issue.

What do you think of this opening for a book?
My husband is trying to be a writter and I think he is very good but he would like others opinions, please be honest and tell me what you think about the opening, good and bad critics please!
Ben Crosby sat at the far end of a table in an over lighted break room. The fluorescent glow was a constant reminder of how unnatural it was to be working at this ungodly hour. He munched on his vending machine sandwich with little enjoyment, he considered these meals to be one step up from eating cardboard slathered in mayonnaise, but sometimes he needed a little extra food at night to keep himself going. Gilly sat across from him, head in hands, snoring quietly. As Ben saw it he had two choices, he could kick the table hard with his steel toed boot and scare the **** out of his friend, or he could let the man sleep and then laugh his *** off when Norm came in and woke him with a spew of obscenities
Maybe this seems like a cruel joke to play on a friend, but Gilly had played his share of pranks and would no doubt take it in stride. Besides, there are so few things that can entertain a man who is eight hours into a twelve hour night shift.
He stood up and put on his safety glasses, smiling to himself, he only wished that he would still be in the room when Norm showed up. He felt his phone vibrate in his pocket and all his good cheer vanished in an instant. There was never good news in a text received at three in the morning, unless of course you are a junkie. Ben was not a junkie, and only two people had this number. One of them was sitting across from him, snoring over his half eaten mac and cheese, the other was his wife Donna.
Pulling the phone from his pocket, Ben could read the caller’s name without flipping the phone open. She should be asleep, she had to be up in the Morning to get Jenny ready for school, and then to go to work. Donna was a hard worker, and no one would ever call her lazy, but she loved to sleep, and was usually in bed as soon as her daughter drifted off to dreamland. Hesitating only for a second, Ben flipped open the phone, and pressed the button that would retrieve the message. The words on the screen froze his blood. SOMETHING WRONG W JENNY COME HOME NOW.
II
Donna Crosby sat by her daughter’s bed listening to her draw in breath after ragged breath. The little girl was cool to the touch, but she moaned and writhed, and no matter how hard she tried, Donna could not get Jenny to wake up. She had text Ben, but she no longer thought that was enough. She picked up the phone and dialed his cell number. He picked it up on the first ring and she had to choke back a sob before explaining to him what was happening.
She hated bothering him at work, and there had been a few times in her daughters younger days that Donna, being a first time parent had called him away because the little girl had the sniffles. He never got angry with her over it, understanding her protective nature, but he hated missing work. Not because he enjoyed his job, but because he hated to be seen as playing hooky.
This was not the sniffle’s, and as if to enforce the gravity of the situation, Jenny began to scream, the sound was blood curdling, filled with terror and sorrow. Ben would not think twice about coming home now, and Donna wept as she hung up the phone.

What are the repairs I need for my 1999 Jeep?
I have a 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee (V8 automatic) with 92300 miles.
Took it in for oil change and the dealership recommended the following:
Power steering pump replaced (leaking power fluid)
Axle side passenger side replaced (boot is torn)
Front pinion seal (leakage)
Rear output seal (leakage). Total estimated repair costs is approximately $2000.
Problem is this Jeep will be donated to charity in three months and I do not want to put a lot of money into the Jeep. My question: What needs to be repaired for safety sake? (I am driving 360 miles on business trip next week).
Thanks in advance for any input.
What are the repairs I need for my 1999 Jeep?
That shop is doing what they are intended to do and that is sell anything they can. I am sure all those are leaking, but that is fairly normal, I bet the front and rear pinion seals are %26quot;just wet%26quot; barely showing signs. But it makes a great sale! If you didnt request any of this looked at, I would not sweat it. The powersteering pump? I would ask them to show me where that is leaking. If its not from the front seal (behind the pulley) then its just a hose which is very common on that vehicle. the return line gets dried out and hard at the end. It has the standard pinch clamp so will show signs of leaking. One can just throw a new clamp on it and solve that problem.
If giving the vehicle away, I would think about the power steering leak, But get another opinion and ask to have the leak shown to you.
Reply:Have the axle boot replaced and the CV joint inspected at the same time. As long as you don%26#039;t see puddles of fluid under the car you are OK. Make sure all the fluids are checked and topped off before your trip. Check fluids weekly. Drive until you donate it to the charity. Your bill should be closer to $200.00 instead of $2,000.00
Reply:Seals on 9 year old cars routinely wear out.
Add a small can of power steering stop leak to the pump. The front boot can be replaced as a wrap around bolt on without tearing down the entire steering knuckle. As long as the joint remains greased and doesn%26#039;t pick up a lot of grit, it will be fine. A really innovative mechanic can clean the rip and glue it together with gasket maker - the stuff is that good.
The other seals also have additives available to swell them and reduce leakage - but even a replacement may not do the job as the surface they press against will have been worn down. That makes it a smaller diameter, and the replacement will be too big to bear against it and do the job.
Your 92300 miles is just half of the available mileage the engine will probably go before major repairs, but all the smaller stuff will - starters, alternators, water pump, etc generally quit after 110k miles. The charity will have bigger problems with that than a few seals leaking.
Reply:none of those are critical, just make sure you check your PS fluid regularly...or the steering might get stiff...
Reply:k it depends on how bad they are if they are pouring fluids or if they are just minor leaks. just make sure that they are full and let the next person worrie about it your getting rid of the damn thing anyway.

The little girl was cool to the touch, but she moaned and writhed, and no matter how hard she tried, Donna could not get Jenny to wake up. She had text Ben, but she no longer thought that was enough. She picked up the phone and dialed his cell number. He picked it up on the first ring and she had to choke back a sob before explaining to him what was happening.
She hated bothering him at work, and there had been a few times in her daughters younger days that Donna, being a first time parent had called him away because the little girl had the sniffles. He never got angry with her over it, understanding her protective nature, but he hated missing work. Not because he enjoyed his job, but because he hated to be seen as playing hooky.
This was not the sniffle’s, and as if to enforce the gravity of the situation, Jenny began to scream, the sound was blood curdling, filled with terror and sorrow. Ben would not think twice about coming home now, and Donna wept as she hung up the phone.
What do you think of the opening of this book?
I agree with Kit - - creative writing classes would only benefit your husband. He definitely has a great way with words and descriptions. Reading the first part of your excerpt, I can actually %26quot;see%26quot; Ben and feel his lethargy and lack of joy at eating %26quot;cardboard with mayo%26quot;. I can also picture his co-worker Gilly, asleep at the table.
I would definitely keep reading this, to find out why Jenny is screaming and what is wrong with her. So he certainly has a hook that will draw the reader in.
Please tell him to keep up the good work - - and best of luck!
Reply:I can%26#039;t stress this enough. Check out your local Junior College and see if you can%26#039;t get your husband into a creative writing class. He definitely has a way with words, but there is discipline to be considered.
Good story-telling is one thing; good writing, another. Composition classes, writing classes, can be a great help in learning structure and presentation. Basic grammar is very important. (BTW, the classes at your local JC are going to be much cheaper and more valuable than the %26quot;Do you want to be a writer%26quot; courses offered by certain companies out there.)
But don%26#039;t give up!!

Ben Crosby sat at the far end of a table in an over lighted break room. The fluorescent glow was a constant reminder of how unnatural it was to be working at this ungodly hour. He munched on his vending machine sandwich with little enjoyment, he considered these meals to be one step up from eating cardboard slathered in mayonnaise, but sometimes he needed a little extra food at night to keep himself going. Gilly sat across from him, head in hands, snoring quietly. As Ben saw it he had two choices, he could kick the table hard with his steel toed boot and scare the **** out of his friend, or he could let the man sleep and then laugh his *** off when Norm came in and woke him with a spew of obscenities
Maybe this seems like a cruel joke to play on a friend, but Gilly had played his share of pranks and would no doubt take it in stride. Besides, there are so few things that can entertain a man who is eight hours into a twelve hour night shift.
He stood up and put on his safety glasses, smiling to himself, he only wished that he would still be in the room when Norm showed up. He felt his phone vibrate in his pocket and all his good cheer vanished in an instant. There was never good news in a text received at three in the morning, unless of course you are a junkie. Ben was not a junkie, and only two people had this number. One of them was sitting across from him, snoring over his half eaten mac and cheese, the other was his wife Donna.
Pulling the phone from his pocket, Ben could read the caller’s name without flipping the phone open. She should be asleep, she had to be up in the Morning to get Jenny ready for school, and then to go to work. Donna was a hard worker, and no one would ever call her lazy, but she loved to sleep, and was usually in bed as soon as her daughter drifted off to dreamland. Hesitating only for a second, Ben flipped open the phone, and pressed the button that would retrieve the message. The words on the screen froze his blood. SOMETHING WRONG W JENNY COME HOME NOW.

Opinions on the opening of my husbands book?
Good opening of a blue collar working man and his trivials with his friends. He doesn%26#039;t explain his job too much, which would add %26#039;fluff%26#039; to the story.
The opening is not realistic. An over lighted room might be hard to do with flourescent lighting. He might say, %26quot;the room flickered with the dim light of the cheap flourescent lighting%26quot;
or something like that.
Whatever character he chooses to use %26quot;Gilly%26quot; for example, should have a little biography, so the reader can get to know them, that is if he is going to use them later.
Go back and forth from the job, the main characters, and of course, himself. Describe features, pretend the book is like watching a movie.
The sickness of the child is confusing. The reader is left guessing what the problem is. Research childhood diseases and use real symtons.
Describe Donna as you go back and forth with the child, ie %26quot;we met in high school%26quot; etc....%26quot;our marriage was rocky%26quot; etc..
Overall, it flowed well. Use some similes, such as %26quot;Donna listened to her labored breathing with fear, and the fear grew as her breathing increased, and the sweat pouring reminded Donna of a premonition of death.%26quot; Keep builiding the intesity so the reader say%26#039;s %26quot;No don%26#039;t die!%26quot;
I think you%26#039;re on your way.
I%26#039;m an avid reader and an example I will give you is War and Peace, beside being terribly boring at times, the main story he described the characters so well you could draw a picture of them, and he described their personalities so well you loved them dearly, or hated them.
Make them laugh, cry, guess, and most importantly, the structure, what is the book really about?
That%26#039;s all I can give you.
Good writing!
Reply:It is good, however there is a bit of overuse regarding commas. I suggest also using words like he a little less. Many of the sentences could be combined into one. Reread the whole thing and you%26#039;ll understand what I mean. I think it has potential!
Reply:It has a few barely-noticeable grammatical errors, but other than that, It%26#039;s really, really good. I want to read more!!!

What's the diffference ?
I saw a movie mentioned, with a person supposedly %26quot;playing a homosexual window dresser who holds the brutalities of prison life at bay by the sheer force of his imagination%26quot;.
Why isn%26#039;t a movie like that discriminatory, whereas if I suggested that on my software project one of the team was
%26quot;playing a homosexual window dresser who holds the brutalities of releasing unsafe safety-critical software at bay by the sheer force of his imagination%26quot;, that would be discriminatory and I%26#039;d be booted out ?
What%26#039;s the diffference ?
The movie is a fictional work of art or entertainment and, as such, it is incapable of being discriminatory in the manner you describe.
You, on the other hand, work with real people creating a real product and none of your co-workers is a homosexual window dresser. If you were to suggest that about one of your co-workers it might be considered defamatory. Such conduct might also be considered harassment, or it might tend to create a hostile work environment, and constitute grounds for your termination.
Does that make sense to you?
Reply:It%26#039;s all about intentions.
If somebody wanted to convey the stereotypes of homosexuality and share that with others as a piece of fiction, then it%26#039;s hardly discrimination. Unless you only opened the part to %26quot;a homosexual window dresser who holds the brutalities of releasing unsafe safety-critical software at bay by the sheer force of his imagination.%26quot; That would be pretty discriminatory.
On the other hand when you use a phrase like that to detail somebody, you are inferring that they are a homosexual and that yourself don%26#039;t like homosexuals as you use it as a slur. Then you would kind of have the intentions of an asshole.

What car should I have next ?
I have a Citroen C4 at the moment, and I seem to have had nothing but bad luck with it, so my husband has decided that%26#039;s it%26#039;s time for it to go. He thinks that I would like a Mini Cooper, but I%26#039;m just not sure if It%26#039;s going to be too small, or whether that is just something that I have got used to over the years. The kids have now grown up, so most of the time it will be just me and a friend. I can fit a sack of horse feed in the boot, that was one of the first things I checked. Economy is important, as are safety and reliability.
I like the look of them, but it does seem now that every other car on the road is a Mini. What do you lot think out there in the big wide world??? !!
What car should I have next ?
I%26#039;d have the Mini. They%26#039;re excellent wee cars, good fun to drive, reliable, cheap to run ( make sure you take the 5 year TLC service plan), %26amp; when you want to sell it on, you%26#039;ll be fighting the buyers off with a sh*tty stick! None of which applies to your C4, I%26#039;m afraid.
Reply:I take it that the Mini cooper you refer to is the new out-sized model that BMW produce and not the original. To me it looks huge and anyway why would you need a big car?
Reply:I%26#039;d go for a Seat or a Chevrolet Lacetti. Both cars are very nice and the boot space is very good. My friend has just brought a brand new mini and although she loves it she doesn%26#039;t like the fact that she doesn%26#039;t have a lot of boot space

Does Murphy's Law predict that the protege you installed with the informal title "Deputy Director Cyclops" for
your safety-critical Cyclops project will be an enormous disappointment, almost the worst person in the world. Idi Amin might have been better - at least people would have woken up to Idi Amin and booted him off the project.
Are there some laws of quantum physics that guarantee all this ?
Only exception would be if you actually planned to put a good person in the job, rather than the more usual : jobs for the boys - the organisation is stuck with these people - we assume they%26#039;re all good - we%26#039;ll find positions for them - nothing wrong with this normally but it DOESN%26#039;T WORK for a safety-critical project.
Does Murphy%26#039;s Law predict that the protege you installed with the informal title %26quot;Deputy Director Cyclops%26quot; for
If one examines postcultural dialectic theory, one is faced with a choice: either reject subpatriarchial narrative or conclude that academe is capable of significance, but only if Sontag’s analysis of postcultural dialectic theory is invalid; otherwise, we can assume that reality is used to exploit the proletariat. Submodernist situationism holds that sexual identity has objective value. But in Charmed, Spelling analyses postcultural dialectic theory; in Melrose Place he deconstructs the dialectic paradigm of context.

What will happen to this kid in the Corps who has a borderline IQ?
My friends 17 year old son is in the DEP. He is planning to go to Boot Camp in July, when he turns 18. He is in the special Ed program at school and will barely graduate. The problem is the kid is clueless. He can%26#039;t decipher what is appropriate vs. inappropriate. If someone in authority told him to go hump someone, he would seriously do it.
He has been wanting to join since he was in 3rd grade. He thinks by joining he will be able to eventually fly planes. He has good athletic ability and he can follow directions. He can take apart things and put just about anything back together (albeit with missing parts and put together all wrong, but the thing will work). He just has No common sense whatsoever.
His mom let him go down to talk with the recruiter thinking that the recruiter would send him away with a toy soldier set and that would be the end of it. But, no, they got him working out with a group of guys every week. We are worried for his safety as well as the safety of others.
What will happen to this kid in the Corps who has a borderline IQ?
Well hopefully the military will sort him out in basic/AIT. But if not they will see he will be a problem %26amp; let him go. But this just might be his thing. He may lack in other areas but this one thing could be what he is best at.
Reply:I%26#039;m thinking this really isn%26#039;t your place to say anything. Seems like you don%26#039;t like this kid and you aren%26#039;t a very good friend to your so-called friend to be trash talking their son in this manner. This young man had a dream to enlist in the military. He has achieved his goal. He would not be allowed to enlist at all if he could not pass the ASVAB with a minimum score. Trust me, LOTS of affluent teenagers from great schools with great families barely score a 10 on this test everyday in the recruiting office. This test is designed for an average high school graduate to pass. Also the ASVAB score itself is only made up of two sections of english and two sections of math. It is called the AFQT. It is that section of the exam that most young American teenagers fail due to our really crappy, union run, public school system. What I am trying to tell you is this kid isn%26#039;t as stupid as you want him to be. Lots of young people have little if any common sense. That is because they had lazy parents with poor parenting skills. Video games and day care cannot teach your children common sense. The military and especially the US Marine Corps takes young people and turns them into responsible young adults. Young people learn lots of life skills in boot camp, technical school and from their entire chain of command when they get to their first duty station. Marines and all military folks look out for their own. Thousands of young adults enlist every year who have crappy families they leave behind many never to be talked to again. For this young man%26#039;s sake I really hope you eat your words soon about what a worthless young man he is. It is people like you that do our young people the most harm. Instead of trash talking these young people why don%26#039;t you try mentoring him?
He will do more than just fine in the Marine Corps and I really look at you with disgust both as a friend and as an adult. How responsible were you at his age. Are you the CEO of a Fortune 500 company with all the common sense you had at 17 years of age? Doubt it. It is because of down thinking people like you that stong military people like us have to pick up the pieces of the kids you send us to turn into mature and honorable young people. Rethink your ways before you do it to another young person.
Reply:He might surprise both you and his mother/family and find something he likes, enjoys, does well at and is part of something that he is a part of without people thinking he can%26#039;t do it. He might also wash out of boot camp. If he passed the ASVAB he is not as %26quot;low IQ%26quot; as you seem to think; sometimes a person just needs to find a niche and do well in it to get ahead.
Reply:he has to pass his asvab scores and have a minimum score to even be eligible.. if someone in authority says jump, you are supposed to say %26quot;how high%26quot; the military loves people who are wiling to follow orders.. with all the mental problems he most likely wouldn%26#039;t make it thru basic training and from what you have said it would be amazing if he even passed the asvab test. Myself I had adhd, add and had a lot of coping problems growing up. But amazingly the NAVY beat all that out of me thru discipline and I came out a man. To fly a plane he would have to become an Officer. We had some fellow sailors in my squadron who weren%26#039;t the sharpest pencils in the box and they eitther ended up in a permanent assigment in laundry, or plopping mashed taters on peoples plates in the mess hall. If he meets the intelligent standards and makes it thru bootcamp maybe this is the best thing for him
also the asvab scores have nothing to do with an IQ. The asvab is not an IQ test.. I looked and the lowest score you can get and qaulify is a 31, but that doesn%26#039;t determine which type of job he can get , the AFQT scores are the ones that determine which jobs he can qualify for. I tried to get a list for you that says what jobs he can do with that asvab score at the possible lowest, but he can qualify from what I read for any MOS, but like i just said that all depends on the AFQT, and they combine different scores from different areas of knowledge to determine that. A person would think that if getting thru bootcamp and becoming a foot soldier you would only have to be willing to follow orders and have a trigger finger that works correctly. And yes there are plenty of people in the service willing to pick on someone who shows any sign of weakness menatly. Anyway you had a good question and I wil give it a star for being interesting
Reply:If he scored high enough on the ASVAB he is qualified. Maybe he isn%26#039;t as stupid as you think he is. If mothers had their way, their kids would never be allowed out of house without a pacifier.
Reply:probably will wash out during boot camp
Reply:They will become officers.
Reply:I wouldn%26#039;t worry too much. He as of right now is just a name on an enlistment roster. He still has to go through his military physical and that include a psych exam. If his mentality is not up to standards, they will give him a medical deferment.
But who knows, too many schools classify students as special education needs (it simply means that most teachers don%26#039;t want to spend time on students who need one on one help)!
He may be a lot smarter then you or his mother might think.
As far as following authority, that%26#039;s what the Marines want, they don%26#039;t want those who question, ignore, or can%26#039;t tolerate authority.
And even if he may be a little slow, the Marines always cover each others back and leave no one behind. His (if he graduates from boot camp) new found family will take care of him.
Reply:Don%26#039;t try to destroy a chance at a dream. He is doing better that most in school. He will graduate ...How many drop out of school? If he has pass the Armed Service Vocational Aptitude Battery and physical requirements, he should have no problems. I know of college grads that can not pass these tests. He will not fly with out a degree and flight school.
It is honorable to be concerned for a friend but you should be supportive. Back him and pray for the best. Put trust that if he doesn%26#039;t belong then it will not happen. But, if he does make it he will know that you were at his side walking with him rather than behind with a knife.
Reply:if he is truly %26quot;special%26quot;..he will probably wash out.
Reply:He doesn%26#039;t sound like a bad person. But if he%26#039;s really going to be a liability to himself and others in the military, he won%26#039;t graduate basic training.
I%26#039;d just be happy for him. If he wants to join the Marines and has passed all the tests and assessments to get accepted, he deserves the chance and it%26#039;s to be assumed that he can hack the training and lifestyle.
Reply:leave him be and let him continue and eventually join. The military needs people like that =Op. He will probably be a Gomer Pile, but that%26#039;s where he will shine... humoring everyone =Op. Even the military needs humor. Plus, in the service, it sounds like the military will be the only thing in this kids life that will keep him together.
Reply:I think he%26#039;ll be a fine Marine and fit right in in the Corps....He%26#039;ll look good too, best of any US Military Uniform available. He%26#039;ll fly alright...then the%26#039;ll make him jump or ....push him out. Oh, that%26#039;s Airborne...That%26#039;s the Army son.
They cannot afford to send anyone away these days thank%26#039;s to Angry Dick and Uncle George Dumbya Bush and their Republican Special Wars of Circumstance and Corporate Reward. (Republican SWCCR). His Mom ought to be ashamed of herself, and I surely hope the young man lives through her mistake. For his and her sake. May God Truly Bless Him.....I%26#039;d still salute him though...and they certainly need %26quot;humpers%26quot; in Dick %26amp; Bush%26#039;s Wars. He sounds just right for a Bush Cabinet Level Position too! Blind Patriotism/Loyalty is where it%26#039;s at in that Cabinet.
Reply:if he isn%26#039;t fit for the military he probably won%26#039;t stay in the military - he will be booted out or will decide for himself that it isnt for him

He has been wanting to join since he was in 3rd grade. He thinks by joining he will be able to eventually fly planes. He has good athletic ability and he can follow directions. He can take apart things and put just about anything back together (albeit with missing parts and put together all wrong, but the thing will work). He just has No common sense whatsoever.
His mom let him go down to talk with the recruiter thinking that the recruiter would send him away with a toy soldier set and that would be the end of it. But, no, they got him working out with a group of guys every week. We are worried for his safety as well as the safety of others.
What will happen to this kid in the Corps who has a borderline IQ?
Well hopefully the military will sort him out in basic/AIT. But if not they will see he will be a problem %26amp; let him go. But this just might be his thing. He may lack in other areas but this one thing could be what he is best at.
Reply:I%26#039;m thinking this really isn%26#039;t your place to say anything. Seems like you don%26#039;t like this kid and you aren%26#039;t a very good friend to your so-called friend to be trash talking their son in this manner. This young man had a dream to enlist in the military. He has achieved his goal. He would not be allowed to enlist at all if he could not pass the ASVAB with a minimum score. Trust me, LOTS of affluent teenagers from great schools with great families barely score a 10 on this test everyday in the recruiting office. This test is designed for an average high school graduate to pass. Also the ASVAB score itself is only made up of two sections of english and two sections of math. It is called the AFQT. It is that section of the exam that most young American teenagers fail due to our really crappy, union run, public school system. What I am trying to tell you is this kid isn%26#039;t as stupid as you want him to be. Lots of young people have little if any common sense. That is because they had lazy parents with poor parenting skills. Video games and day care cannot teach your children common sense. The military and especially the US Marine Corps takes young people and turns them into responsible young adults. Young people learn lots of life skills in boot camp, technical school and from their entire chain of command when they get to their first duty station. Marines and all military folks look out for their own. Thousands of young adults enlist every year who have crappy families they leave behind many never to be talked to again. For this young man%26#039;s sake I really hope you eat your words soon about what a worthless young man he is. It is people like you that do our young people the most harm. Instead of trash talking these young people why don%26#039;t you try mentoring him?
He will do more than just fine in the Marine Corps and I really look at you with disgust both as a friend and as an adult. How responsible were you at his age. Are you the CEO of a Fortune 500 company with all the common sense you had at 17 years of age? Doubt it. It is because of down thinking people like you that stong military people like us have to pick up the pieces of the kids you send us to turn into mature and honorable young people. Rethink your ways before you do it to another young person.
Reply:He might surprise both you and his mother/family and find something he likes, enjoys, does well at and is part of something that he is a part of without people thinking he can%26#039;t do it. He might also wash out of boot camp. If he passed the ASVAB he is not as %26quot;low IQ%26quot; as you seem to think; sometimes a person just needs to find a niche and do well in it to get ahead.
Reply:he has to pass his asvab scores and have a minimum score to even be eligible.. if someone in authority says jump, you are supposed to say %26quot;how high%26quot; the military loves people who are wiling to follow orders.. with all the mental problems he most likely wouldn%26#039;t make it thru basic training and from what you have said it would be amazing if he even passed the asvab test. Myself I had adhd, add and had a lot of coping problems growing up. But amazingly the NAVY beat all that out of me thru discipline and I came out a man. To fly a plane he would have to become an Officer. We had some fellow sailors in my squadron who weren%26#039;t the sharpest pencils in the box and they eitther ended up in a permanent assigment in laundry, or plopping mashed taters on peoples plates in the mess hall. If he meets the intelligent standards and makes it thru bootcamp maybe this is the best thing for him

Creating bootable xp disc?
I bought windows xp installation disc and installed xp.For safety reasons,I copied all files of CD on hard disk and burned them to a new disk to create another bootable disc.But when I checked it by rebooting my computr,there was no option of booting from CD(As in the case of original disc,the message%26quot;Press any key to boot from CD%26quot; doesn%26#039;t come. I have tried that many times,but it doesn%26#039;t seem to be working.What could be the problem,is there any other software with the help of which I can make a similar disc?
Creating bootable xp disc?
eranz is right, you have to go into the bios and change it to bood of your cd or dvd drive. you will usually find that under BOOT OPTIONS in your BIOS. to get to the BIOS you have to push F1, F2 or the delete button to access the BIOS. Each motherboard manufacturer uses one of those 3 buttons to access there BIOS. You can try one of thes buttons as the computer boots up. if it does not work, try one of the others,
Reply:I think u have press F1 and to create a bootable disk u need to have an emergency repair disk (ERD) first
Reply:well, when you start up your computer I think you push F1 or something to access the BIOS and in there you can set up so that it boots from the CD Drive.
