Resolved Question: In modern Hindus,I am seeing the habit of answering about idols as if they are just symbolic representations?

In modern Hindus , I am seeing the habit of answering about idols as if they are just a symbolic representation and they have no more truth than that. Is it actually only that ? Then what is the meaning of the word 'Darshan' by great yogis like sri Ramakrishna paramahansa with Kali amman ? Why the Hindus themselves do not realize that there is more truth in idols than that of symbolic representation ? Why Hindus themselves do not realize that the Abrahamic religions have not grown up to the level of Hindu saints to realize the various forms of God ? Didn't sri Aurobindo tell that there is God's world and many forms are there ? Didn't Annai said that she herself saw Mahaganapathy and Maha Saraswathi in forms ? Didn't sri Ramakrishna tell that he saw even the adore and mercy are having forms very high in the sky? Answer..........Hindus . (mis)fortunata...You are describing our Goddess as witch and our beloved Ganesha and Hanuman as ridiculous deities . Do you know anything about religion manners ? Glad at least you have some respect about Gita . If you do not know a truth in spiritualism , you are denying it because it is easy to deny . Try to learn to have some patience while discussing the serious subjects . V: What I talk is not about sastras , but experience . Rituals and thereby making money is every where in every religions . Hinduism is not an exemption . I think you every are very urgent in understanding my Q . Idols are not mere symbolic representations of some phenomenas . They are true forms of God existing in the sky and of course have been perceived by very rarest of the rare Gnanis . Why should we curtail our foot to suit the foreign religion shoes ? It is they who have to grow . Instead they are ridiculing ours as silly . The deficiency is Hindus still do not know the deep truths in idols . In no way I am against Abrahams . But their ignorance against other religion truths is not answered correctly by Hindus .

Hi there, i have a question about administrative processing for H-1B visa in Amman, Jordan. In Jan 2008, i went back home (Amman, Jordan) to visit my family, and i went to the U.S embassy Amman to stamp my h1-b visa. the officer was nice, she asked my couple of questions, and then she told my Visa stamp is approved but first she need to do security check, and administrative processing on me because i have an arrest record in the U.S. after waiting for 90 days, i was cleared, and they issued me an H1-B visa for one year. my visa was expired in March 2008, and i would like to go back and visit my family again, but i am afraid that i will receive stuck in administrative processing again for 3 months. can you please know since i was cleared the first time, will they issue me the h-1b visa without doing another administrative processing, or are they going to do it again? if you believe that i will have administrative processing again, do you think it will take 90 days like the first time? please respond to my questions with your experience, and thoughts. thanks ihab thanks for your quick response, but do you think if i have receive chosen for administrative processing, do you beleive it will take the 90. like the first time.. thanks ihab

Resolved Question: so my question is can you read this and tell me if this personal narrative is good ( i need a really good grad?

This past summer my family and I went to Dubai. Dubai is located along the southern coast of the Persian Gulf. I had heard about Dubai but didn’t know a lot about the place. One thing I knew was we were traveling from Amman, Jordan. My mom had told me a few activates that we were going to do. One thing she had told me is visiting the only seven star hotel in the world! I couldn’t wait to go on the Emirates airplane! The first step of getting to Dubai is going on the Emirates airplane. The first step I entered the airplane, smelled like recycled air. While I was on the airplane I entertained myself. I watched TV, played games, and listened to music. I remember the appetizing airplane food. Most airplanes have unappetizing food but the Emirates airline had good tasting food. I still could remember the odor of the chicken wrap sandwhich, bananna, and snickers. My family and I had a lot of fun on the airplane. After my family and I got off the plane we went to the hotel where we were going to stay at for a few days. When we got to the hotel we got some relax then went to a restaurant .The restaurant had mouthwatering food. After we were done eating we went to visit the only seven star hotel in the world. When we got to the hotel it was the most luxurious hotel I had ever. During the visit at the hotel I remember asking my dad a question. “Baba why aren’t we staying at this hotel?” “Because its one thousands dollars a night.” The last thing we did at the hotel is take pictures inside and outside of the hotel. The Last exciting thing going to a desert safari. The first thing we did was go dune bashing. Dune bashing is riding in a four wheel .It was a lot of fun. The next thing we did is ride a camel. I was terrified of falling off the camel, so I went last. The second to last thing we did was eat barbeque and watch a belly dancer. And finally the last thing my family and I did was receive henna designs on my hand. My sisters and my mom only got them. The next day my family and I woke up and went to the airport. We had to wake up so early. At the airport we did some duty free shopping it was so much fun. Even though I like shopping I didn’t like shopping at five o clock in the morning. When it got to be six o clock in the morning we got to go on the airplane. While on the airplane I thought about every the chilly things I got to do. After we got on the plane heading to New York. When I heard the pilot say welcome to Cleveland I was glad. I thought now I have to wait a few years to look my family. The second thing I thought I thank God for this opportunity. After two months being away from home I thought this is the best summer I had ever experienced. thanks

Resolved Question: 6: Why do liberals take the side of terrorists by telling us that "they have families, too"?

Haven't we seen how they treat their families: --a man takes his wife to Amman, Jordan and orders her to act as a suicide bomber with him --Palestinian mothers and fathers send their kids across the border into Israel with back pack bombs --Muslims in many countries teaching their kids to die for Islam Intelligence reports from Iraq have included stories of terrorists kidnapping kids so that they can use them as hostages. The ransom is for the parents to act as suicide bombers. After the deed, the kids are promptly killed. Why do liberals accept this nice of rhetoric? Is this proper treatment of a family in the liberal world view? Do liberals recognize this as proper family values?

Resolved Question: Why John McCain and his staff failed to answer the following questions?

Questions John McCain Would Not Answer John McCain was contacted on several occasions to answer some questions for Pravda.ru. Unlike the western corporate media, nothing is hidden here, nothing is out of bounds to ask the candidate. Both he and his staff failed to respond. Those unanswered questions are presented here: Senator McCain, is it true that as a child, you were quick to anger and you used to hold your breath until you passed out? Was it also true that your parents would put you in a bath of ice water to try and receive you to cease? Is it true that you finished 894th out of 899 at the Naval Academy, the absolute bottom of your class? Is it true that because of your family connections, you were admitted into the flight training program over much more qualified candidates? Is it true that in flight school, your grades were very needy (according to your instructor)? Is it true that your first wife, while you were a POW, fought to make sure that you came home and you rewarded this loyalty by divorcing her immediately after your return? Is it true you were known for carousing, womanizing, drinking and a needy choice of companions, and that one month after your divorce, you married Cindy Lou Hensley, wealthy daughter from the prosperous Anheuser-Busch beer fortune? Is it true that right after you were shot down you were giving interviews to foreign correspondents, providing information on your prior command, casualties and tactics, in violation of the Military Code of Conduct? Is it true that while a POW for 5 years, you admit to having given information to the foe while a prisoner of war in exchange for favors? Is it true that when you returned from captivity, you were ashamed to face your family because of what you did while a prisoner of war? Is it true that while a member of the Senate Select Committee on POW/MIA Affairs (1991-1993) you referred to POW/MIA family members and activists as whiners, vultures and the lunatic fringe? Can you comment on your absolutely dismal voting record on veterans’ bills and why so many veterans are mad with you? http://www.vetvoice.com/showDiary.do?diaryId=1973 Is it true that you fought to improve relations with Vietnam because your family stood to profit greatly because of their big corporate interests in the Budweiser Corporation? Wasn’t Budweiser among the first big US Corporations to enter Vietnam after relations were normalized? Did you recently tell reporters, "I hated the gooks. I will hate them as long as I live" ? Was it due to bad luck or lack of ability that you lost 5 aircraft in 11 years? The first one in 1958 when you ditched one plane into Corpus Christi Bay while practicing landings. The second was over the Iberian Peninsula while flying too low, taking out some power lines. The third happened when returning from partying after an Army-Navy game in Philadelphia, you crashed while flying a navy trainer. The fourth when you were in the cockpit of a plane aboard the USS Forrestal when it was hit by a rocket. The plane was destroyed, and you escaped with some injuries, but 134 sailors in the same vicinity on the Forrestal were killed. The fifth plane was lost when you were shot down on your 23rd mission in Vietnam where you became a POW? Is it true that despite having received every sorts of military honors, you had only flown 23 combat missions during the war totaling no more than 20 actual hours in combat? Do you still stand behind your previous statements to "make it a hundred" years in Iraq and "that would be fine with me that U.S. troops could be in Iraq for 'a thousand years' or 'a million years” as far as you are concerned? Before a crowd at Murrells Inlet VFW Hall in South Carolina, you were asked when you thought the US Military might "send an air mail message to Tehran" you started singing: “'Bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb Iran,' to the tune of Barbara Ann. What were you thinking? Does such behavior suggest that you have the ability to deal with national security, foreign relations and diplomacy? You were also quoted on several instances telling voters they are to expect many other wars. Can you tell us about the wars you are planning on? It is said you take a lot of medication for arthritis pain and you also suffer from recurrent melanomas, a deadly form of cancer that spreads quickly. Given your age and state of health, what are your chances of being healthy enough to perform the duties of your office if elected? On March 21, 2008, while speaking at a press conference in Amman, Jordan you falsely accused Iran of harboring and training al-Qaida terrorists. You apologized after Joe Lieberman whispered in your ear that you were wrong. You then withdrew that statement and instead said that “While the Iranian government is training other ‘Islamic extremists’ across the border, that does not mean they are involved with al-Qaida in Iraq.” How does this reflect on your judgment and ability to conduct international relations for your country? McCain Misleads US Autoworkers According to the United car Workers union (UAW), Senator McCain is not telling the truth about always buying American cars, as the family fleet reportedly includes a Honda and a Volkswagen among the 13 cars they possess. Cindy McCain drives a Lexus with the private number dish "Ms Bud" which is registered to Anheuser-Busch. "When he's in the Midwest, he tells voters he supports the industry," UAW president Ron Gettelfinger said. In an interview on a Detroit television station, McCain told Michigan voters he was “Proud to buy American cars.” Newsweek reports that Barack Obama and his wife Michelle possess a single car, a Ford Escape Hybrid, which was dubbed by Gettelfinger as a "green machine" emblematic of a future generation of US vehicles. General Petraeus Counters McCain At a talk at the Heritage Foundation, General Petraeus contradicted John McCain's arguments about Iraq and Afghanistan. This wouldn't be significant except for the fact that McCain consistently cites Petraeus as a justification for his policies. The drop in violence in Iraq was mainly due to the Anbar Awakening. As early as 2004/2005, commanders in Iraq were recommending that the US to negotiate with insurgents. Petraeus definitively came out for opening communications with America’s adversaries, a position McCain is attacking Obama for advocating. Citing his Iraq experience, Petraeus said, “You have to talk to enemies.” McCain praises General Petraeus for his success, but refuses to acknowledge what Petraeus himself has learned and said. What Did McCain Mean by "That One" John McCain made the remark during the second last debate when discussing a 2005 Senate vote on an energy bill. “There was an energy bill on the floor of the Senate loaded down with goodies, billions for the oil companies, and it was sponsored by Bush and Cheney. You know who voted for it? You might never know. That one,” he said, pointing to Obama. “You know who voted against it? Me.” McCain was going back and forth on the issues. He was so mad about the state of his campaign that he referred to Barack Obama as ‘that one,’ and couldn’t look at Senator Obama, he couldn’t manage in his anger to say Obama’s name. Many were shocked by the offensiveness of this reference. Criminal Terrorist Associate and Supporter of McCain While John McCain and his campaign have been continuously bringing up Barack Obama’s working with William Ayers, a former Weathermen activist when Obama was 8 years old, Gordon Liddy has contributed thousands of dollars to the campaigns of John McCain. Liddy held a fundraiser for McCain at his home and hosted him on his radio show, where McCain said to Liddy, "I'm proud of you." In his interview on Liddy’s radio show, McCain said, "Congratulations on your continued success and adherence to the principles and philosophies that keep our nation great." Liddy is a convicted felon whose crime was to try and subvert the democratic process. He was sentenced to 20 years in prison for his crimes in the Watergate burglarizing of the Democratic National Committee office which was part of a scheme to steal the 1972 election through sabotage, illegal spying and dirty tricks. Liddy has never expressed any regret for his crimes, nor has he developed any respect for the law. After the 1993 raid on the Branch Davidian compound in Waco, he endorsed the shooting of federal agents: "Kill the sons of bitches." Palin and Troopergate A state legislative panel comprised of 8 Republicans and 4 Democrats has concluded that Sarah Palin abused her power in the firing of the state's public safety commissioner. The vote was 12-0 declaring that Palin committed ethics violations and used the power of her office for personal gain. The panel spent more than six hours discussing an ethics report into the firing by Governor Palin. The investigative report concludes that a family grudge wasn't the sole reason for firing Public Safety Commissioner, Walter Monegan, but says it likely was a contributing factor. Monegan says he was dismissed as retribution for resisting pressure to flame a state trooper involved in a bitter divorce with the governor's sister. Palin contends that Monegan was fired as part of a legitimate budget dispute. Palin’s story is that Monegan arranged two unauthorized lobbying trips to Washington. But according to interviews and records that were obtained, the governor’s office authorized both trips. Therefore, Palin was caught in an outright lie. The report also touches on whether Palin's husband meddled in state affairs and whether her administration inappropriately accessed employee medical records. Although the process is just beginning, a judge has ordered an investigation that Sarah Palin used a personal e-mail address to conduct state business so as to avoid the state system set up for such communication. Palin Still “Thinks” Iraq Tied to 9-11 Compare and Contrast The characters that surround John McCain, coupled with his commitment to continue Bush’s basic anti-middle class economic and social policies, would make his presidency nothing more than a continuation of the nightmarish Bush years and probably even worse. Additionally, as the Georgian conflict erupted, McCain irresponsibly and foolishly issued belligerent and aggressive statements, condemning Russia without waiting for every the facts. Barack Obama, other world leaders and even Bush took a more cautious approach. Henry Kissinger said the unpleasant fact is that “the first shot was fired on the Georgian side.” Colin Powell said the Georgians provoked the crisis. McCain's initial response was reckless, as well as his continued approach as outlined during the debates. Just as Sarah Palin said she was qualified on foreign affairs because she can look over to look Russia, so too can Russia look at Sarah Palin. What is seen is not liked in the very least. If the McCain/Palin team were qualified to guide they wouldn't have to lie, character assassinate, rattle swords and cheat. McCain's pro-war mentality might well divide his nation and the world even worse than now and guide to the worst instability and danger in world history, largely due to his known bad temperament and questionable stability. Senator Obama has run an intelligent and honorable campaign. He offers ideas and plans rather than empty rhetoric and character attacks. His economic plans are championed by leading economists, unlike McCain, who has supported the disastrous policies that have brought his nation to the verge of complete economic collapse McCain himself should be the most vulnerable in the area of character but for the protection afforded him by the corporate media and the basic ability of his opponent to emphasize issues and solutions to problems, and to advocate and practice change from typical political mudslinging. Barack Obama has called for a bottom up economic growth that wouldn’t be solely for the benefit of the super wealthy. He has emphasized diplomacy, negotiation and building bridges when dealing with adversaries. His willingness to negotiate gives Russia and the world a sense of wish for future relations, respect for international law and respect for other nations. tweetypotpie1, ignorance is not bliss. Soviet Union along with its communism cease to exsist some 19 long years ago. Newspaper "Pravda" just keeps their name. Plumber Rock, since this is a question it means that I'm asking and not telling. every this never was brought up in US media nor it ever will. Think difficult and perhaps even you will understand why. PingGolfCrazy, every the questions which were asked of John McCain are important. The reason that they appear to you not important is because you are Republican. Pfo, None of those questions does not look stupid nor they are insulting in any way whatsoever to any normal human beings. In my opinion normal human beings does not include Republicans. Jeffy, I do not know why they did not Obama any questions, You may ask Pravda.ru perhaps they will tell you why. None of the questions appears to be pathetic to me because I'm not a Republican.

I have to pick a choice between these 2 places so was wondering if anyone had any opinions on the better of the two. Tunis, Tunisia is also an option!
