Resolved Question: Does anyone agree that there are exceptions to the "cardinal rule" of gift giving?
The one where you should ALWAYS remove the price tag or receipt, without exception. Is it really so tacky and distasteful under ANY circumstances (returns don't exist)? Short version: No occasion (on a whim), inexpensive or great deal, practical everyday items like food/candy/school supplies/flash drive (or even a great deal on a cell phone or laptop if you think the smaller items qualify as an exception), bought on amazon and sent to very close family, then leave price on packing slip. Absolute faux pas, acceptable, or in the middle? Tacky, weird or rude (or all three)? I need answers/opinions, this is important to me!! ********IGNORE THE FOLLOWING!!!******* and answer now please :) ############################################################################### **************DONT READ BELOW ############################################################################### Long version (asked earlier but no one, understandably, wants to read so much): The following concerns my mental health. I KNOW society says it is one way, but I can't be swayed to agree no matter how much I hear and read about it. For expensive items, however, I DO agree generally. I'm trying to figure out what is wrong with me (mood/personality disorder or related perhaps). I know that 99.9% of the population believe that leaving the price tag and/or receipt with a gift is considered the worst gifting faux pas of all time, without exception. However, I tend to have a different perspective under certain circumstances. Suppose it is a random "gift" to very close family members, specifically younger siblings who live in a different state, and for no apparent occasion. Let's assume it is something like food or candy. You stumble upon a clearance sale online and can get a great price on the item(s). My perspective is I have no reason to conceal the price because I don't want them to think I paid too much, being wasteful and careless. To me it would be akin to going to walmart and I offer to buy them some cookies or something, then I quickly pounce to cover the price tag with my hand and force them to look away, then make sure they don't wait in line to checkout with me. Okay, okay. I know you have no choice in person, but still, it feels similar to me. Further, everyone loves getting a great deal. I want to include, these closest people to me, in on what a deal I got and share that feeling with them. So, if I was to make such a purchase online, is it really so tremendously rude to leave the price on the packing slip? Most say the price doesn't matter but I beg to differ. The price DOES matter, partly because there is no way I'd pay retail (which doesn't insinuate, in my mind, that they aren't worth retail, and people so incredibly close to me would never think so, I hope). And let's face it, money is important to everyone. If I receive a gift that I knew someone very dear to me got at a great price, I feel as good about the deal as they did. I would think, "Aw, score on the great deal! Thanks so much for thinking of ME at such a time! Very thoughtful and considerate of you!" I care about them and want them to save money just like I do for myself. I am very sharing, open and honest with my very close family and keep few things from them, almost to the point as my money is theirs. I'm sure they'd do likewise and do anything to help me within their means. However, I've been chastised by a different family member (who is not so close), as if I did worse than stealing from them, for doing similar to the example above. Considering these thought processes, how is it that I AM the inconsiderate one when I see it as just the opposite (i.e. SHE is inconsiderate for thinking so, then berating me for it in front of friends)? By the way, do you think I deserved that criticism? I'm certain most, if not all, of you will disagree with me, citing reasons why disclosing price is tacky. I've considered most of these, but please tell me what my belief makes me. Inconsiderate? Selfish? Sociopath? Jerk? Plain rude? Please be specific and explain, I'll have fun reading these when I return later. Thank you!! :)) Only one answer and it's a lump of sh** as he put it. Better off just ignoring and continuing like everyone else. No matter because this only further confirms my initial suspicion. It's not helpful to ignore all my questions and simply take the social norm and crafting around it fallacious "arguments" without reasons. No one "gives a sh** about price?" I do and others have said they do. Why shouldn't we care about each others' well being (which money obviously helps)? Removing the tag solves an overspending problem and/or the issue of caring about price? Huh? As a receiver, I care about price whether I know it or not. Like I said, I care about these people. And a tag won't prevent people from spending outside their means, whether it's visible or not. Sounds like some pretty awful people if they only care about the quality of the gift but don't "give a sh**" about me. But I can see through most phoneys and they never get anothe
Resolved Question: 2012 nl central predictions?
First off my predictions change big time knowing chris carpenter won't be back until after the all star break mid july so here are my predictions and a little hit by the reds knowing closer ryan madison is gone for the season 1- brewers 92-70- They lost prince fielder but they got aramis ramirez who can hit 30+ homeruns and drive in 100+ rbi's one of the best pitching rotations and bullpens. 2. reds wild card- 90-72 great offense their pitching rotation is much improved also a good bullpen but took a hit when they found out closer madison is gone for the year but they will still contend. 3. pirates 82-80 This team has good young talent and is a up and coming team. 4. cardinals 76-86- i love my cards but with no albert pujols, dave duncan, tony la russa, and chris carpenter gone at least until after the all star break maybe longer this teams season is over, before the carpenter injury i had this team contending for the division fighting until the last week with the brewers and reds but no way with pujols, duncan, la russa, and carpenter. 5. cubs- biggest offseason addition is getting theo epstein from the red sox but lacks talent on this team. 6 astros 60-103 This team do i already have to say anything about the astros they are in major rebuilding mode. So hear are my predictions im a st.louisian it kills me to say this about the cards but just to much to overcome plus this team is aging beltran, furcal, berkman, and you see carpenter at his age is having health issues.

Resolved Question: How does Conclave handle basic needs?
In the Roman Catholic church, at the Vatican, when the Cardinals College goes into Conclave, to vote for a new pope, and members are sealed behind the doors, which are guarded by the Swiss Guard: What happens if a vote is not finalized, and members, being HUMAN first, and Catholics, second, need to use the Mens Room? What happens if a vote takes longer then 24 hours? How do the Cardinals get food, and drink, behind the sealed doors, and the Swiss Guard? Since ALL humans must eat, sleep, and relieve themselves, periodically, to maintain health, how does the Vatican handle such basic needs, while the Cardinals College is in Conclave? The Tom Hanks movie: Angels & Demons makes no mention of these issues Neither did Anthony Quinn's classic "Shoes of the Fisherman". Neither has any video which I have seen, about his Holiness, the late John Paul 2 Is the public not allowed to know what goes on behind Vatican walls? If this information is Classified, why? I am only curious. I am seeking knowledge, NOT to dis-respect the church.
Resolved Question: Do you agree with the Pope?
VATICAN CITY (CNS) -- Pope Benedict XVI and other church leaders said it was the moral responsibility of nations to guarantee access to health care for all of their citizens, regardless of social and economic status or their ability to pay. Access to adequate medical attention, the pope said in a written message Nov. 18, was one of the "inalienable rights" of man. The pope's message was read by Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone, Vatican secretary of state, to participants at the 25th International Conference of the Pontifical Council for Health Care Ministry at the Vatican Nov. 18-19. The theme of this year's meeting was "Caritas in Veritate - toward an equitable and human health care." The pope lamented the great inequalities in health care around the globe. While people in many parts of the world aren't able to receive essential medications or even the most basic care, in industrialized countries there is a risk of "pharmacological, medical and surgical consumerism" that leads to "a cult of the body," the pope said. "The care of man, his transcendent dignity and his inalienable rights" are issues that should concern Christians, the pope said. Because an individual's health is a "precious asset" to society as well as to himself, governments and other agencies should seek to protect it by "dedicating the equipment, resources and energy so that the greatest number of people can have access." "Justice in health care should be a priority of governments and international institutions," he said, cautioning that protecting human health does not include euthanasia or promoting artificial reproductive techniques that include the destruction of embryos. Care for human life from conception to its natural end must be a guiding light in determining health care policy, the pope said. In his own written statement, Cardinal Bertone had strong words in support of the need for governments to take care of all citizens, especially children, the elderly, the poor and immigrants. "Justice requires guaranteed universal access to health care," he said, adding that the provision of minimal levels of medical attention to all is "commonly accepted as a fundamental human right." Governments are obligated, therefore, to adopt the proper legislative, administrative and financial measures to provide such care along with other basic conditions that promote good health, such as food security, water and housing, the cardinal said. Private health insurance companies, he said, should conform to human rights legislation and see to it that "privatization not become a threat to the accessibility, availability and quality of health care goods and services." Cardinal Bertone recommended that government leaders in poor countries use their limited resources wisely and for the good of their citizens. The governments of richer nations with good health care available should practice more solidarity with their own disadvantaged citizens and help developing countries promote health care while trying to avoid a "paternalistic or humiliating" way of assisting, the cardinal said. Cardinal Bertone warned of the "war of interests" between pharmaceutical companies and developing nations who have little access to medicines because they can't pay for them. He said that those manufacturers should not be driven by "profit as the only objective" in the creation and distribution of medicines. Archbishop Zygmunt Zimowski, president of the Pontifical Council for Health Care Ministry, said in opening remarks that to have good health "is a natural right" recognized by international institutions. Despite such recognition, he said, great imbalances persist and developing nations find themselves with inadequate structures and without the ability to provide basic medicines to their people. Wealthier countries, on the other hand, have a "technical" approach to the sick, which ignores "the sick person in his entirety and dignity," Archbishop Zimowski said. The council, created by Pope John Paul II 25 years ago, will continue the church's mission to serve the sick and promote health for all, the archbishop said. http://www.catholicnews.com/data/stories/cns/1004736.htm
