How will Barack Obama's upbringing by Muslim parents & training in a Muslim school impact his politics?
Barack Obama was trained in a Muslim school in Indonesia, his mother was Muslim-turned atheist, and his father and grandfather were Muslim. Barack is presently a member of the United Church of Christ. I am not aware of what was taught by Indonesian Muslim schools 30 years ago. Did they indoctrinate students in a similar manner we hear about Muslim schools today: promotion of Sharia Law and other values antithetical to American values? How will Barack's childhood and family experiences facilitate or obstruct his ability to defend and promote freedom of choice and religion as opposed to the doctrine of coercion and violence predominant in Muslim teaching today?

I do not trust Barack Hussein Obama with the presidency of America.
2 :
Do you really for one minute think he has a Muslim mindset? No basis for that whatsoever. Give him the benefit of the doubt rather than choose to think the worst of him.
3 :
Most likely, it will affect his public appeal. Especially from 9/11.
4 :
From the few articles I have read that cit him I get the impression that he is a very tolerant man. He studied American law, at Yale I believe, so his understanding of the American judicial system is strong. I also got the impression that most of his upbringing was by his American mother and his father had little influence. He was born and raised in Hawaii and looks beyond race at the individual. I feel he has a strong heart and truly cares about the people of America. Unfortunately he seems very similar to other politicians in one respect. He hasn't been good at conveying his platform to the masses. I would like to know more about what action he intends to take. And that goes for all candidates.
5 :
Nobody seems to know very much about him other than the fact that the media adores him. He could be genuine or a "Manchurian Candidate". I wouldn't vote for anyone has very limited experience and who only appeals to the media and left wing (or right wing).
6 :
Obama went to a Muslim school for two years, followed by a Catholic School for two years. After that he was enrolled in an acadamy in Hawaii. The fact that he had very limited exposure to Muslim education probably serves to make him a little more enlightened about Muslim culture and beliefs... as I'm sure his tenure at a Catholic school served to make him more sensitive to Christian beliefs.

Multiple visa meant you can go out and enter the country without making new one ... You can contact the foreigner's regestration office they would help you with it...
2 :
It means the same as multiple entry. You may enter and leave the country as many times as you want as long as you are a student (in status) and the visa is valid. Single entry visa is good for one time entry only while multiple travel entry visa allows a person to go and come back to the country on the same visa based on permissible time frame.

Does the expression of shape vary in different languages?
Does the expression of shape vary in different languages?
Dear (industrial) designers, artists, engineers and others interested in shape, We are three Industrial Design students at the Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands. We are currently busy researching the following issue: Does the expression of shape vary in different languages? Expressing terms of shape happens mostly instinctual, this is why certain applications aimed at designers and other people who work with shapes are not equally understandable for everyone; let alone what happens when shape terms are translated into other languages! For this reason we are trying to reach international native speakers of English, Dutch, Russian, Surinamese, Tagalog (Filipino) and Bahasa Indonesia. (But other languages are welcome too). Below are the links leading to info and the three parts of the test. It consists of 132 questions and takes about half an hour to fill in. 1 http://fs2.formsite.com/Researchanddesign/form958072694/index.html 2 http://fs2.formsite.com/Researchanddesign/form962607724/index.html 3 http://fs2.formsite.com/Researchanddesign/form964534176/index.html Thank you very much for participating! In the end we hope to have collected enough answers to compose “ideal†lists of shape terms that are adjusted to the user’s way of thinking, instead of the other way round. We expect this to result in an overall better understanding in for example, CAD-programs all over the world. Best Regards, Lorraine, Dasha and Stephan

You don't want much bigger than 15", it will be too heavy to lug around. You're gonna want lightness for easy to carry and usability. There's nothing wrong with Acer. I'm using one now, but my screen is 17". I don't carry it around every where, though. It just stays next to the couch in the living room. I'd just try to find something very lightweight for the right price. A couple pounds isn't going to kill you, if it costs 500 dollars more. As for foreign languages, I can't help you there. My own public library won't even let me check out a book on sign language! Oh yea, get at least 2 mb L2 cache speed for better indexing. Cache speed helps with opening and closing programs and the amount of time it takes to open each. And from here on out, don't get anything other than Wireless-N for the network adapter in any laptop. The Wireless-N is all the speed you'll need to keep up with technology for at least two more years, maybe three. Here's a link on cache. It's actually a pretty good link. http://computer.howstuffworks.com/cache2.htm

1 :
I do not think it is necessary to have a religion in one's life. I've never had one, and I've had a happy and fulfilling life so far. People who have grown up with religion their whole lives may tell you that it's necessary for them, which it may be at this point. But that is only because they've become dependent on it over time.
2 :
No, it isn't important. Many people live happy meaningful lives without believing in any sort of mythology.
3 :
Here is what I suggest: In whatever cultural the person was raised in that is most likely the religion they will believe. However, there is no such thing as a deity and all with one are delusional. Base your paper around that and do research to back up your facts.
4 :
Muslims arent interested in "cross-cultural understanding". They are the most self-righteous hatefilled people on earth. Whether they live in Saudia Arabia, Indonesia, or Yemen, makes no difference at all. Muslims are the most hatefilled people on earth. No one else comes close.
5 :
Not only is not necessary it is disruptive to many lives. Religion causes more problems than it solves. Just look at the number of wars fought over religion. I challenge you to name one war that was influenced by a difference in religion of the warring parties.
6 :
It is important to have a connection to our group in our lives and for centuries religion provided it as well as giving answers to people who couldn't find them. It is important to have connection and acceptance in our lives. How we get them religion, government or clan affiliation is the least important part of a vital need.
