» Are leaders born or made?

Evidence please for bothWhat a meaty question! I am reminded of one of my favorite quotes from Shakespeare: "Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them." As you requested, I've gathered material discussing both viewpoints. ============================ LEADERS ARE BORN, NOT MADE ============================ "We might not like it, but leaders are born and not made. To lead, you need the following traits: * a spirit of adventure - the urge to explore, break new ground, challenge the status quo, stand up for what you believe, risk rejection, rebel against authority, innovate. * an ability to influence - by example, logical argument, enthusiasm, persistence or painting a visionary pic...... - 2010-03-11

» Parents who KNOW~ do you feel that sending your child to GATE schools reduces or eliminates "the dregs"?

My 2 children are GATE identified. I have had the option get them out of our title 1 school, but decided against it because they are a) established there, and b) are in the accelerated program (this school's answer to GATE). Up until recently, I have loved our school. But I have had an incident with a kid, a middle school student, that has left me wondering if I should get my kids out of this school. This kid, whom I don't even know, shoved his friend into me when I was walking past him. He looked me in the eye while he did it. When I told staff about it, they said yeah, he does stuff like that all the time, even called an aide a puto, but nothing ever gets done about it. Seems a teacher at our school is mentoring him, and feels ...... - 2010-03-11

» If atheists don't believe in our sweet good Lord's laws, why some of them get married in churches?

religious wedding, religiously speaking? if it is your case, during the wedding, are you being hypocritical with the Lord, or just pretending you're worshipping something that isn't there? share your thoughtsDon't know of any atheists who have gotten married in churches. Although I can see why one might, if for no other reason than to not upset certain family members. You know, it's called being NICE. It's polite to accomodate certain folks' outdated, irrational beliefs...out of, you know, love and kindness and all.Atheists wouldn't have wedding with religious ritual. They may get married in a church but that could be because it's a beautiful building and can hold the ppl who are coming to the ...... - 2010-03-11

What are the qualifications and duties of Bapist church Deacon?Dear babyg65-ga; Thank you for allowing me an opportunity to answer your interesting question.

"a fan of yours" or "a fan of you," which should we choose?:( 1. I'm a fan of yours 2. I'm a fan of you If "you" refers to JJ, which does each mean? X. I like JJ. Y. JJ likes me.I don't think "a fan of you" is even grammaticaly right, but I'm not native english speaker, so don't take my word for it :-) I would however use phrase "a fan of yours" [I'm a big fan of yours!] or maybe "your fan" [I'm your big fan!]. I think the meaning is quite the same. If "you" refers to JJ, which does each mean? X. I like JJ. Y. JJ likes me. I'd say X -> I like JJ -> You'd say to him/her: "I'm fan of yours!"

Tests have confirmed the H5 virus in both birds, and a highly contagious form in one case, he added. In all, 14 cases of bird flu have occurred in the Czech Republic. The previous 12 dead swans were found in South Bohemia and all of them were infected with the H5N1 strain, dangerous to humans. Special measures will now be introduced in the critical area.

I dont know when catalog jumped to this new system, i was on my way to sign up for there $250/month redhat server for my vB and one other big website, but they no longer offer that plan, now you pay $1199 upfront, sign a one year contract, and pay $149 for colocation, and the server specs arnt all that bad (Celeron 600, 256MB RAM, 20GB HDD, 100Gig of transfer included). After your year is up, you own the server, and you can continue to co-locate for $149 a month. Is this a good deal? This plan costs $1200 upfront, but you have a very small monthly cost, and when the year is up, you basicly have a nice server you own, for free.

That the children of people like Angelina Jolie, Tom & Nicole, and various other celebrities who were adopted are ALWAYS referred to, in the media,as the "adopted" children and not just "the children" of these people?I think the media only says that for purposes of clarification. They know that the readers/audience might be saying to themselves "Didn't they adopt some of their children?" So no, I'm not insulted by it. But I would think it was insulting if I heard the parent say it. (like in the movie "The royal Tannenbaums")I agree, it is insulting. I mean if they say it once, then it is fine.

» The doctor said my baby is a little on the small side and I am 35 weeks pregnant?

What does this mean? Does it mean he is going to be under a certain weight or does the doctor know for sure how much he is going to weigh? That's what the Dr. said about my first baby, and he was 8.13!!! Eat ice cream... good fat and calcium... plus tastey!!! :) Your doctor has fallen into the same error that many of his/her profession fall into..assuming that the patient knows what they are talking about.The end result is that patients feel foolish about asking questions..which they should not unless, like their doctors, they studied medicine for years and passed all the exams! Judging by the words used..a " little" on the small side, it would appear safe to assume that the baby is not dangerously small but you should ask your doctor ...... - 2010-03-11

Okay guys, here's the deal: I've got an interview in two days with Interac, an organisation which hires native English speakers to teach English in Japan.

I've written it out, now I just need to make sure I've got the pronunciation right. Here's the sound file: www furandfeather co uk / Japanese.mp3 Does it make any sense at all?!

» Cutting frame members to 45

Good day I would like to share with you a different way of cutting 45* frame members. Instead of messing-up with angles and protractors, I'm using a big, dedicated triangle. I'm using different "stop" method, instead of clamping the stop 15 feet (just joking) behind the sled, I'm positioning the stop on the front. That way, I don't need any extensions running back of the triangle. The cutting method is “Left” and “Right” to overcome any very small deviations from 45 and 90. One important point. I'm cutting the frame members to “final dimensions”, before cutting the 45. As you will see on the pictures, the triangle vertex is positioned at the center of the kerf, which means that, ev...... - 2010-03-11

» D200: Rapid Setting Changes

Hey All D200 users- I have a D200 i'm still getting familiar with. I have recently missed some spur of the moment photo opps though, and the camera was in my hands. Part of this has to do with the fact that i'm not 100% used to my camera. Well, this situation will come up again i'm sure as spur of the moment happens a lot with wildlife photography when I'm out hiking. I know that the D200 has some settings banks, but I've not found an easy way (yet) to change between them w/o going through the menus. If anyone has any tips for rapidly changing from the settings I'd typically use for the stunning landscape shots i take along the trail (or any of the photos I have time to set up for that matter) and switch the camera into somethi...... - 2010-03-11

He is very particular in pointing out to Catherine that no one must know they are harbouring illegal immigrants. The story of Vinny is not merely that of a young boy who betrays his own uncle to the authorities. It also goes to show the price he has to pay for that betrayal.
