running watches large numbers image
AU
Now that GWB has run your country into the ground - with the wheels coming off of everything; some of your largest, oldest, greatest companies folding; stocks and pensions diminished to nothing; millions lost their homes or facing foreclosure; millions of jobs lost, 2 wars that have served to NOT make you safer, the biggest deficits and debts ever, etc etc, etc ->
Ironically, its his infamous "mission accomplished" but all backwards...kind of backfired.
Will someone ask him to explain what he's done and if he's happy with the sad state of affairs his leaving behind?
Answer
Apparently you don't live in the USA, for you said "running YOUR country" into the ground. Since I live here, the sky isn't falling. Some businesses both large and small are folding, but they always do in good times and bad. Some will reorganize, change management, and do other things to stabilize themselves. People have lost jobs before, then they find jobs again. This is a reevaluation time, and people and companies have to do that.
Are the wheels coming off of EVERYTHING? I don't think so. Two wars, and not another terrorist attack on USA soil in over 8 years...I am proud of President Bush and his administration for keeping our country safe. I also understand the cyclical market and how it goes up and comes down.
Stocks and pensions haven't diminished to nothing unless they had some bad stocks. But that won't hurt them unless they need to sell them right now in the strange market. Stocks are still holding, many at lower rates, but many will rise again. Some companies and people are buying and others are selling. The market is reacting not only to the economic conditions, but to fear and panic, and much fluxuation can be due to a new incoming president. His agenda doesn't support businesses in the same way that has been done, so companies are choosing how to deal with the little information they have on policies to come. Stocks fall and then they rise again.
It is unfortunate that so many people are losing their homes because they got involved in shady mortgages. People that buy homes should be able to pay for them. If they didn't understand the clauses in a mortgage, why didn't they go to someone who could explain the terms to them? Many banks are now working with people to get them real mortgages so they can stay in their homes. Those that were responsible for writing bad mortgages will no doubt be prosecuted, and those agencies that intimidated banks into making those loans will hopefully go unfunded, i.e., ACORN.
We do have huge deficits by spending on a war and by the overspending by Congress. We'll see how the new administration addresses the issues.
I am sure President Bush doesn't want to be leaving right now. He would like to see things through. He isn't to blame for the economy. There has been a domino effect of one issue compounding another. Congress was warned 3 or 4 times to deal with Fannie and Freddie, but they put their heads in the sand, and the Democrats in charge said there was no problem. When will they face the music? I am sure he is more fearful than we are about putting the country into the hands of a neophyte.
President Bush doesn't have to explain anything to me, I can read and analyse situations. History is recorded. He is leaving at a time, when I wish he could stay. His mission is accomplished, he has served us well through thick and thin.
I would rather listen to President Bush's words than listen to an inexperienced, arrogant, please 'em all.
If the USA isn't your country, why are you getting involved in our politics? How can you accurately judge or assess our problems? I certainly wouldn't try to emphatically state opinions about the economy and situation of another nation if I didn't live there.
Our media is also into drama, lots of drama, so I prefer to watch what is happening in my state, and am more concerned with my locale and how people are being affected. The people are resiliant, and they learn to be more cautious, as do companies, and the markets always return. Cautious optimism will replace the doom and gloom. I see the unemployment numbers, and know there is a problem for many families, many of whom have never gone through an economic downturn. Now they will become resourceful and they will handle this. They just have to know they can. Our government doesn't hold a magic key, the people do.

How many miles do you have to walk to lose 3500 calories?
!
Or run but walking would be easier. Both i guess.
an exact answer would be nice!
Answer
An exact number is not possible without you supplying a missing piece of information: your weight. The more you weigh, the more calories you burn while exercising, whatever form of exercise you're talking about.
Another factor you haven't mentioned is your running and walking speeds. The faster you move, the more calories per mile you burn.
I'll assume you're the average weight for an American woman today, which is approximately 162.9 pounds, according to the first website listed below. We'll round off to 163 here, and plug that into the calories counter from the second website listed below.
Let's also assume your running speed to be seven miles per hour and your walking speed to be three miles per hour. To burn 3500 calories, you have to run at a pace of seven mph for 247 minutes, just over four hours. That would be a total of 29 miles to burn that many calories while running at that pace.
Walking at a pace of three miles per hour means you would have to walk about 650 minutes, or just under eleven hours. At three miles per hour, this would mean walking almost 33 miles to reach this calories expended goal.
Keep in mind that these figures were calculated using hypothetical figures for both your weight and speed. The faster you move, the more calories you burn per unit distance. You can find the exact numbers by plugging in your actual weight and speed into the calories counter.from the second website listed below.
As you can see, it's a whole lot easier to consume 3500 calories than it is to burn them off, so make sure to keep close watch on what you put into your mouth. It takes a lot less time to eat a large supreme pizza with about 3500 calories than it does to walk 33 miles to burn them all off.
