Set it up like this:
1,100 = 0.089(v)
Then to make v stand alone, divide by 0.089 on both sides of the equal sign.
1,100/0.089 = 0.089(v)/0.089.
1,100 divided by 0.089 equals 12359.55056179775. Round that number to $12,359.55.
Ta-da!

Honestly, my sex talks up a storm, but they don't usually carry out something THIS big. A lot of women don't want to be the actual president, even though they want a woman for president. The others that want to be, they hit a bump along the way that causes them to veer off course. There hasn't been the ONE, you know? Hillary was pretty good, but apparently not good enough at that point in time (frown). Being president is a BIG DEAL, and men just try out because they have HUGE egos (usually) and believe they can run one of the most powerful countries in the world. More women tend to be humble, or modest, but the bold ones don't want to be president. God, I don't know. Why can't there be more modern men like George Washington or Teddy Roosevelt? That's a question on its own! There's still a lot of discrimination against women, and the big money, like oldanthony said, doesn't believe that a women could win a presidency. You have a good question there!

Gee, I'm not a computer expert, but did you check the garbage? I just found this out, exit out of all windows until you hit the background, where your icons usually are. Right-click, and you'll get a tool bar with stuff like View,Sort by, and Refresh. Click view, and there should be a checklist with sayings like icon size, or align icons to grid. Click the one of the bottom ones, "Show desktop icons". If that doesn't work, try auto-arrange icons, that will take all the icons you have on the screen (whether you have them or not), and arrange them all on the left-hand side to grid. If that doesn't work, then your memory was wiped or someone messed with your computer.

Honestly, it depends. If it's an essay or paper, or maybe just a paragraph, then read the whole thing. After that, just ask yourself what this reading was trying to tell you. That should be the main idea. If it's a story, look at where the problem(s) or conflict(s) is, then look at the resolution(s), or where the problem is fixed. Try to sum up what happened or what the main character did wrong. Also, looking at the end, there should be a statement where there is no bravado, like: "This is my story. There are many twists and turns, ups and downs, but of course, none of us can control it." It's a very strong statement, and will usually stand out. Hope this helps!

This is just my opinion, and I am not trying to offend anyone here. I am against pot, even though I have never tried. I never will, I swear. It damages our body permanently, sends off a bad vibe, and is just an extra waste of time and money. I don't think it should be legal at all, but that will never happen. I wish people didn't discover how to smoke, since it's addictive and unhealthy. Pot makes a lot of young and old people do things they should not and normally would not do, even if it has a nice feeling. Lucretia, please don't smoke pot anytime soon, for your sake. This is just my opinion, and for those who know pot is helpful and/or support pot, I am not trying to offend you. Interesting subject and poll, I would never have thought of that.

Interesting question, leeroy. The only time and chance that I would ever sell my soul to the devil would be under these conditions:
- He must free all the other cheated souls in exchange for mine,
- Kill himself,
- And remove all the bad things he has planted in this world.
You know, I don't think he would agree, but it's worth a shot.

I don't recall any good dreams, except for one that is just strange. I was in seventh grade, and I dreamed I woke up late, and decided to take my time to get to school (which is definitely something I wouldn't do). My mom told me to choose a cereal for breakfast, but when I turned to the kitchen, there was at least thirty different types on the table! I accidentally knocked one box down, which ended up as a domino effect. I suddenly felt myself being catapulted south, and I landed inside of my huge school library, unharmed. All my classmates were there, saying, "Wow, what a trip!" As I looked at one girl named Sammy, a flapjack fell on her head, complete with maple syrup and butter. I looked up at the ceiling, and the last thing I saw before I woke up was a flapjack, falling fast toward me...

My favorite memory is making pumpkin bars with my chef father. He is awesome at frying and Asian food (probably because he's mostly Asian), but he is terrible at making dessert or baking. I did most of the work on that dish, even though I was only seven. It tasted great, except the mushy area on the bottom. I think my dad greased the pan a bit too much.

Your brain is your mind. "You" is your mind, body, and spirit. I suppose your mind controls your body, and in very rare cases, your mind controls your spirit. Most of the time, I believe, your spirit controls your mind and your spirit. Don't worry, all of them are a part of you. They ARE, they don't really control.

I admit, to me, it's unnerving when a religious person goes up to me and follows me around, trying to get me to stop being an atheist. Calm down, all they're trying to do is help you. That's all they want to do. And if a father doesn't love his children if they aren't the same religion, then that's the father's problem. Remember, it's a free country, and there is freedom of speech. Think twice about asking questions like these. If I were Christian, I'd blow my head off at you.
