How do you become blood sisters?

Being a blood brother(or sister I suppose) was an old tradition of confirming deep friendship by mixing blood. In its most typical form the persons would each cut their palm and then shake hands - but any similar ritual would do. With what we know about blood borne diseases today, this isn't really advisable any more.

Do you tell a recruiter what salary you made?

Yes.

Salary information is critical to the hiring decision. It tells the recruiter your level of experience and also tells the recruiter how much money you need to motivate you to move. Without this information, you may spend a lot of time and effort interviewing for a position that is below your required salary range.

On the other hand, if you know you are underpaid for what you do, tell the recruiter this and research the market to back up what you think is an appropriate salary. It is ultimately in the company's best interest to pay you what is competitive for the position. If the company gives you a low offer because you are currently underpaid, that company risks losing you easily in the future once you are contacted by the next recruiter and learn what you are really worth.

It is also important to consider your full annual compensation with a recruiter. When telling them your salary, be sure tp include information such as an annual bonus, pensions, 401k matching, stock options, etc.

Can stem cell research form tumors?

Stem cells are 'cells with no specialization', they can become almost any kind of cell, including a tumor. However, stem cell research is directed to the regeneration of cells in dysfunctional but constitutionally normal tissues and organs and therefore are not likely to form tumors.

What is wrong with stem cell research?

It is very difficult to classify stem-cell research as wrong, as it is a subjective (and very controversial) topic. The best way to find out whether it is 'right' or 'wrong' would be to determine it for yourself. It may be easier to do so once you know more about stem-cell research, by doing objective research and forming your own opinion. Here is the link to the 'What is stem-cell research?' question also on the wikianswers website: http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_is_the_difference_between_embryonic_stem_cells_and_adult_stem_cells&alreadyAsked=1&rtitle=Stem_cell_research

Why is there a stem cell debate?

The debate you refer to is about the ethics of embryonicstem cell research. This involves harvesting stem cells from a fertilised egg, once it has reached the Blastocyst stage- not an embryo yet. Many Christians see this as killing a human life. Now it is possible to produce stem cells using the same process as cloning.This can produce stem cells which match the DNA of the recipient. As long as cloning human beings is not the aim (and it is not) then I see nothing unethical about this. One of the deseases stem cell researchers are trying to find a cure for is Diabetes.It may well be possible , using stem cells, to coax the pancreas into producing its own insulin. Standard Leftist Propaganda and opinion (not factual): The multinational pharmacutical industry does not want this to happen.The production of insulin is a multi- billion dollar industry. The Christian right and the media have happily supported them, launching a massive propaganda campaign against stem cell research. They hippocritically talk of ethics while actively keeping people sick, so they can continue to profit from them. Barack Obama has said he intends to reverse the anti-stem cell legislation and funding cuts imposed by the Bush administration. I hope he can find the money to do it, and get past the Republicans' filibusting.

What you mean by stem cell culture?

Stem cell culture refers to the process of growing and maintaining stem cells in a laboratory setting. This involves providing the necessary conditions, such as specific growth factors and nutrients, to support the proliferation and differentiation of stem cells.

Should the government fund stem cell research?

This is a great question, but ouch! This is a hot topic and some people are for it and some are not. People as a whole need to do more research on the matter as I have and found that some people think scientists are killing fetus'. They use the after birth as well and the umbilical cord. One can't make a genuine decision when it would help so many people with MS, etc., without knowledge. If science can keep it's moral standards up then there is no reason the government shouldn't dip into their over abundance of money in their coffers and fund stem cell, BUT organizations should also take up the beat and not put the heavy load on the government alone.

AnswerAlthough some people are for stem-cell research and some are against it that has nothing to do with whether or not the government should fund it. If there were advances to be made the private sector would be pouring money into research. Not to mention that the role of the government is not for funding this type of thing. The founding fathers are probably turning around in their graves. Government is getting way too big. They should run the military, the highway system etc.

How does the Internet impact people's lives?

The Internet, the world´s largest representative electronic network, is part of the panorama of the new information and communications technologies, interacting with social practices and with the very historical evolution of complex societies.

Why does it matter if Obama is Black or not?

It doesn't matter if he's black. It matters how well his job is done.

However, since we do not live in a color-blind society, some people may attribute some of his decisions to his ethnicity, while others have attributed the fact that he won the election to his being black.

He is also the first Black President of the United States. Many Black people view this as a greater step towards equality.

If you are dating a women who is bipolar what should you expect and how can you handle the highs and lows without making things worse for her or you?

== == == == The following answer is provided by someone who does not have bipolar. People with bipolar are people and they're all different. Some do fine without meds.

from below .. "If she suddenly becomes super happy one moment and then flies into rages or becomes extremely depressed" sorry, it doesn't work like that. --

If this woman is not seeking therapy or on medication I am sorry to say that you are in for the ride of your life if she doesn't follow doctor's orders. SHE MUST take her medications according to doctor's instructions and if she does she should just be fine and the only problems you both should have are normal ones. If she persists on not taking medications or playing around with her dosage without seeing her doctor then don't be afraid to talk to her and tell her to smarten-up. 75% of people that are on some type of medication don't listen to their doctor and don't work with their doctor to adjust dosages and they will often quit the medication (some medications shouldn't be dramatically stopped) or adjust the dosage themselves as they see fit. Go into this relationship with eyes wide open and if you are committed to her then realize you need to communicate well. If she suddenly becomes super happy one moment and then flies into rages or becomes extremely depressed you know something is up and she is either not taking her medications or the dose needs to be adjusted. DON'T BE AFRAID to suggest this to her! If she isn't willing to work with her doctor or look after herself then you are going to have make a decision as to whether you want to stay in a relationship with her. People who suffer from brain chemistry disorders are not abnormal people and with some understand re bi-polar there is no reason you couldn't have a good relationship together. Some people feel being on especially a medication for a condition of the brain such as depression (includes bi-polar) etc., is a weakness and it is no different than having diabetes or some other illness. Not so long ago (and even today it can happen) people often will look their nose down at a person with a mental condition. It's sad because the person looking their nose down at the person is ignorant and knows little about this mental condition and it hurts the person that has it. Thus, they feel different and don't always feel they are like anyone else. If all of us were honest in ourselves we each have a flaw in our personality that could possibly need correcting by a therapist or even in some cases medications. There are many people walking around in society that don't even know they are depressed. Although I didn't suffer from bi-polar (can be genetic) I did suffer from panic attacks and Agoraphobia years ago. I had gone through a bad divorce, was working hard, remarried a few years later to a wonderful man and then my father suffered a debilitating stroke. I basically burned the candle at both ends. At this time when I got the panic attacks little was known about it and I had to leave my job (couldn't cope.) The company I worked for was wonderful and gave me full pay for the whole year, but I had to be fair about it and I gave up my job. It devastated me. To make a long story short, I did eventually find a doctor that knew all about panic attacks, was put on an antidepressant and I've been fine ever since. I no longer have to be on antidepressants because while I was on them I also took counseling and learned "Cognitive Therapy" techniques as tool to deal with stress. I now eat well, exercise and fill my head with more up-lifting things and so when the rotten things in life hit me between the eyes I can handle it and I'm a much stronger person today than I was before. For those that couldn't understand my illness I knew within myself I was a good person, strong in spirit, prayed every night and I can tell you honestly that I didn't get well alone, but faith in God got me through it. I do believe in miracles! I was lucky to have support from family and friends and one wonderful husband, but I too worked hard to get better. I feel I have much more empathy towards people and can understand their problems and have more patience when they aren't always kind to me. I think you should give this relationship a shot. Talk to her about it. Go on the computer and ask about bi-polar because I believe when you learn about something then it's not such a mystery and so frightening. Good luck

Why are some people nasty to people with disabilities?

It is certainly not at all funny to tell jokes about those with Down Syndrome and other special needs. How would you like it if people made fun of you for a medical condition that you can't help? People with Down Syndrome or other forms of mental retardation can be very loving, wonderful people and should be treated with as much respect as anyone else.
