As per the National Institute of Standards and Technology, the exact value of Speed of Light in vacuum is 299,792,458 m/s. By exact, I mean there is no uncertainity till the last digit. \n\nTo be precise, what we usually call the ""speed of light"" is really the speed of light in a vacuum (the absence of matter). In reality, the speed of light depends on the material that light moves through. Thus, for example, light moves slower in glass than in air, and in both cases the speed is less than in a vacuum. However, the density of matter between the stars is sufficiently low that the actual speed of light through most of interstellar space is essentially the speed it would have through a vacuum, so we don't make much error by ignoring the difference.\n\nTo make it easier for you to convert, here is the speed in alternative units :\n\n(1) 983,571,056.4304461 foot/second\n(2) 11,802,852,677.165352 inch/second\n(3) 1,079,252,848.8 kilometer/hour\n(4) 299,792.458 kilometer/second\n(5) 582,749,918.3585312 knot\n(6) 880,991.0899527 mach\n(7) 670,616,629.3843952 mile/hour (mph)\n\nThese values are accurate to the 7th digit of decimal. \n\n\nFlaw in JayNick's answer:\n\nThe speed of light in kilometres per second is 279,600 kilometres/sec. Even if you approximate the actual value , 299,792.458 kilometer/second by round off the last three digit, the value would have been 300,000 kilometers per second." +Will road rage occur?,"The sound will reach the car in front of you. Although it may seem as though it would not, considering that you are already traveling at the speed of sound, therefore you may think the sound waves go as the same speed as your car therefore not traveling any faster than you are and not getting to the car in front of you. However, this is not the case. This can be explained using Einstein's theory of relativity. Einstein describes ""frames of reference"" and in your frame of reference, you are not moving; everything else is moving. Everything in your car is stationary relative to everything else, this is why you don't feel like you're moving, and if you throw a book sideways, it doesn't fly backwards with the speed your vehicle is moving, this is because the car, yourself, and the book are all moving with the same speed your car is moving. They are all stationary relative to each other. When the sound waves are created, they move in all directions at the speed of sound (331 m/s), so in your frame of reference, they would be moving at 331 m/s away from the car in all directions. This means from the frame of reference of a person standing outside of your car, the sound waves would actually appear to be moving at twice the speed of sound. This is just like if you threw a ball forward out from the car at 15 m/s, it would appear to an outsider to be moving at that speed plus the speed of sound(well in a vacuum anyway, or before air resistance took over) To use a better example of these frames of reference, you know that the earth is rotating. It is rotating at 1070 mi/hr at the equator, yet it seems not to be moving at all, it is our frame of reference when we are standing 'still.' the speed of sound is no different traveling in different directions on the earth because of this rotation.\n\nand yes, he would probably give you the finger. I mean, he is going at the speed of sound, how impatient are you?" +I WANT TO FIND THE WEBSITE OF LG ELECTRONICS COMPANY?,"www.lge.com\nwww.lgezbuy.com\nus.lgservice.com\n\nSearching for ""LG"" or ""LG USA"" (with or without correct spelling ;-) ) on google would have given you the internet address (or the website or URL) of this company.

It is her passionate commitment to excellence, her complete involvement in every essential aspect of her art, her career, and her life, that has made Madonna one of a handful of the most innovative, influential, and inspiring artists of our time, and it is these same qualities that Madonna has brought to bear in the film and the music of Evita. \n\nMadonna's history towers over the chronicles of popular culture, comprising a list of First, Best, Fastest, and Longest that stands as a monument to one woman's exceptional ability and extraordinary ambition. From 1982, when a cocky, confident, and coolly self-assured 24-year-old Detroit native first stepped onto the stage to lip-synch her debut single ""Everybody"" at New York's Danceteria, it was clear that something wholly original had happened. \n\nMadonna has broken every available radio, video, sales, and box-office record, racking up no fewer than 29 Top Ten singles, 11 of those reaching No. 1. Her most recent chart topper, 1994's ""Take A Bow,"" lodged in the top spot for seven consecutive weeks and beat the performance of her 1984 breakthrough, ""Like A Virgin,"" which had a six-week run at the top. All told, Madonna's No. 1 and No. 2 singles have spent a total of 40 weeks at the top of the charts -- almost a solid year of uninterrupted hits. In one period in the late eighties, she racked up six straight Top 5 singles, beating the Beatles' old record for back-to-back chart toppers. The smash single ""You Must Love Me,"" written especially for the film Evita by Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice, is one of the fastest rising singles in the history of Warner Bros. Records. \n\nOf eleven Madonna albums, every one has reached the Top 15, all but one has made it into the Top 10, and seven have attained Top 5 status. Every one of that eleven-album catalogue (Evita will make it an even dozen) has sold over a million copies, two have sold over three million, and five have sold over four million. Madonna's international album sales are estimated at topping 100 million units. \n\nPivotal as recorded music is to Madonna's unparalleled success, she has had more videos, played more often, than any other artist in the history of the MTV network. Multi-awarded for these videos, Madonna has made a ground-breaking contribution to the video art form, as she has in her unstoppable sell-out music tours that combine music, theatrics, spectacle, and dazzling charisma and have packed stadiums globally for nearly two decades. \n\nMadonna's film roles began with instant success as wacky Susan in Desperately Seeking Susan, leading to starring in Dick Tracy and joining Woody Allen's exclusive repertory for Shadows and Fog. Madonna's intriguing documentary performance in Truth or Dare was an in-your-face personal journey that intrigued audiences and critics alike and led to her unforgettable debut at the 1991 Cannes Film Festival." +Do you think Al-Zarqawi is alive?,"I think he was captured then released I think the problem is the CIA are having a problem identifying him as all the photos they currently have are outdated, I believe currently the NSA have a better Idea whats going on and homeland security is just plain out to lunch.\n\nI think he is alive having a beer with osama at the foggy dew." +Tupac still alive or not?,http://www.celebritymorgue.com/tupac-shakur/ I found this on a website that I would never go to but I remembered someone telling me about I looked it up for you!

There are several rumors out there of a three team deal that would send Manny Ramirez to the Mets, whou would then send some pitchers and prospects to the Orioles who would send Miguel Tejeda to the Sox. It seems very unlikely and complicated. There are other rumors that the Sox will be sending Marte, the 3rd base prospect they received from Atlanta in the Renteria trade, and Moto, the set up man they got from Florida with Beckett and Lowell, to Cleveland for Coco Crisp, who would take over CF for Damon, or LF for Ramirez. This may have some legs since the Sox will be desperate for OF if they trade Manny and Damon signs with the Dodgers, but Marte is suppose to be the real thing. He hit 25 hrs and had over 100 RBI's in AAA last season and hit 2 home runs in only 8 AB's for Atlanta as a September call up. Crisp is a pretty good fielder and an ok hitter, Marte and a reliever maybe to high a price for Crisp. Interesting talk involves signing Roger Clemens to a one year deal. If that happenes the Sox rotatio could look like this: Clemens, Schilling, Wakefield, Arroyo, Papplebon.. Not bad. I left out Clement and Wells because I would assume that if they did sign Clemens that CLement would be traded. Wells will either be traded or he will quit. If Clement is not traded look for a battle in spring training between Papplebon and Arroyo to see who gets the last spot in the rotation and who goes to the pen." +is jim morrison dead?,"yes, yes he is." +who is johns hopkins of the johns hopkins university?,"The University is named for Johns Hopkins, who left $7,000,000 (USD) in his 1867 will for the foundation of the University and Johns Hopkins Hospital.

It also holds the protons and neutrons together, but in a more subtle way, because protons and neutrons are color neutral. This means that protons and neutrons don't have excess color charge (which determines the strength of the strong interaction), and by this logic shouldnt be attracted to each other. The quarks are not in a point-like configuration, though, so each nucleon has a ""dipole"" and higher order moments. If you've never heard of this kind of thing, it's the same idea as the electric force holding electrically neutral atoms together to make chemical compounds.\n\nThe differences in mass between atoms and the sum of their particles is a consequence of the strong force... the strong force is not caused by the mass difference. In fact, atoms above iron have a mass which is larger than the sum of their nucleons, while atoms below iron have mass that is smaller than the the sum of their nucleons. That's why you can only break large atoms for energetic nuclear fission." +Will the stock DVW ever bounce back?,You can drop by this site to look at the recent review on it.\n\nhttp://explodingstocks.blogspot.com/ +which company provides the best computer...?,LG is the best company. +how to share memory to builtin graphics card in 915 chipset?,"In your BIOS.

For E. coli (common lab bacteria) 20-30 minutes is an average doubling time, but different strains vary.\n\nI heard something somewhere about a weird form of bacteria that lives miles underground in granite formations and only divides once every ten thousand years, or something crazy like that. I can't give you a source, it's just a freaky thing off the top of my head that I haven't gone to the trouble to confirm. My contention is that if reincarnation is true, that would be the *worst* thing to come back as. So mind your karma.\n\nPart of the reason it would be the worst is that bacteria reproduce by one cell dividing into two, so as long as there are any of that strain still alive, it hasn't really died.\n\nThey can die though. In a liquid culture you can tell because of a lot of turbidity (cloudiness) some of which is from cells and some from debris from dead cells. Or, you could have agar plates that get really nasty and dried up, and most of those bacteria are probably dead. Or you could tell because they look really crappy under a microscope. If you try to streak it and grow it on a plate and it doesn't grow, it's probably dead." +Need a program that runs on windows that cracks WEP keys?,"I take it this is for educational purposes only.\n\nI believe Net Stumbler will get WEP keys for you, I generally use AIR Snort and things of that nature.

The term comes from Hindi-Urdu and in this context it means ""the other one"". (It literally means ""second"" or ""the second one"".)\n\nThe doosra is a relatively new type of ball, developed in the late 1990s by Pakistani spinner Saqlain Mushtaq. The bowler bowls the ball with the same finger action as a normal off break, but holds the wrist turned so the back of the hand faces towards the batsman. This gives the ball spin in the opposite direction to an off break, causing it to spin from the leg side to the off side to a right-handed batsman.\n\nThe doosra is the off spinner's equivalent of the leg spinner's googly, which also spins in the opposite direction to the bowler's stock delivery.\n\nThe doosra has been used effectively by its inventor Saqlain Mushtaq and Sri Lankan Muttiah Muralitharan. Other spin bowlers have been described as using it to varying degrees, including young Pakistani Shoaib Malik. Among non-subcontinental commentators, the word ""doosra"" is rapidly gaining currency as either a catch-all term for a delivery by any spin bowler which behaves in an unexpected fashion or as a synonym for ""mystery ball""." +Which is the best C?,"GCC is the best.

For the most accurate explanation, you wouldn't check Wikipedia, you would check their official website at www.watchtower.org. \n\nAs far as birthdays are concerned, the Jehovah's Witnesses believe that everything in the Bible is there for a reason. Now, the only 2 mentions of a birthday celebration in the Scriptures are not put in a very positive light at all. Both were celebrated by those who did not worship the true God, Jehovah. And both involved a murder. In the case of the second mention, it was the murder of one of God's prophets, John the Baptizer. Another reason that they do not is because the ONLY celebration that Christians are Biblically commanded to observe is the DEATH of Jesus Christ, not his birth. If Christians aren't to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ, the very Son of God, why would they want to go ahead and celebrate their own or anyone else's?\n\nMost holidays can be traced back to origins in false religious, pagan worship, which tended to include many sinful practices. God is well-aware of the origins of every celebration that is being practiced today. Just because some try and change a holiday to be ""Christianized"" doesn't change the fact that it's origins are not scriptural and that they are in fact not originated with God. There are Biblical examples, in the book of Exodus for one, in which the nation of Israel tried to take a false religious Egyptian celebration and turn it into ""a festival to Jehovah"". Jehovah's response? Many were killed. \n\nThat's the short of it. If you would really like the answers to why Jehovah's Witnesses do not celebrate such things, then go to the link below which can expound on what I just stated." +How many non-euclidean geometries are ?,"Generally, non-euclidean geometries are geometries that use a different fourth postulate, that, in Euclidean geometry, says that corresponding angles of a transversed parrallel lines are equal. This basically means that parrallel lines never meet. There are two other possible postulates. One is that parrallel lines do meet, i.e. that space is like a globe where longitudinal lines meet at the poles. The other is that other lines, besides parallel lines don't meet. In this situation space is shaped like a saddle, and lines get farther and farther apart. Those are the two I know. There are three other Euclidean postulates (e.g. you can draw exactly one circle through a point in the center and one on the rim) that someone might be able to change, but I am not aware that anyone has done that." +"A man walks up to you and says - ""everything I say to you is a lie.""Is he telling you the truth or is he lying","he's lying.\n1) assuming the man is telling the truth, then the sentence ""everything i say to u is a lie"" is to be believed. so he IS lying.\n2) assuming the man is lying, then the sentence ""everything i say to u is a lie"" is a lie itself.

Once you hit the ball, you begin to run as quickly as possible to first base. It's ill-advised to slide, since you're permitted to overrun the bag, and running past the bag is faster than sliding into it. If it appears that the ball has gotten past an outfielder (e.g., into a gap, into a corner), you'll want to at least round the bag at first and consider going to second, depending on how you judge the ball and what the first base coach instructs." +Which are the 5 Best Books on Investing?,just 3..but good ones:\n\nThe new Market Wizards\n\nTrading for a living\n\nTrading rules +"Would you delete my yahoo account, please, asap?","Long story short : https://edit.yahoo.com/config/delete_user\n\nTwo ways to delete your Yahoo Account\n\n(1) Get it deleted by inactivity\n(2) Terminate your account manually\n\nFor the first method, just don't login to your account for 4 months, and your account gets deleted. But the waiting period is quiet long. It is a good policy by Yahoo, as it helps maintain an accurate number of users. I remember, when Hotmail used to brag about in its initial days about its huge userbase, most of its accounts were never used by users(who had registered themselves to get a taste of what email is called). Yahoo always gave an accurate picture. Also, for common usernames like amitgupta, emmacooper, etc which are never available (due to large no of people having these names), a chance is available to the new users to get such usernames from users who are inactive( which generally have to be registered as emmacooper1232005 due to unavailability)\n\nFor the second method, I gave you the link above.

For the benefit of these files being BACKED UP, using an archiving program like compressed files (on Windows 2000 and XP) programs like winzip or any other from a vast number of archiving utilities that can be found online, downloaded and installed, and some of them may even have step-by-step wizards to help and guide you to complete this task.\nUsing one of these will make your data take up less space.\n\nSince MS Windows is a graphical user interface, and as such, anything on the computer can be represented by an icon, and clicking on the icon will either open a file into a program, run a program, or open up a folder. All you have to do is open up the windows explorer, and from there select one of the disks/drives listed in that window, click on one of them and it will allow you to view data/diles there (depending on your set up, it may change in the open window where you are, or open up in another window) having two windows open will be easier.\n\nThis will subsequently list the folders (directories) that are stored on this drive. if you want to make a new one called backup - it may be an idea to give it a different name that you know what it is but no one else will, so not take any notice of it. Open this folder up so it is an open window. Switch back to the original window (say, the folder that represents ""My Documents"" and so long as both windows are open and visible on the screen, you can use what is called ""drag & drop"" to move/copy files from one location to another. To select more than one file at a time using the mouse, if all the files are in sequential order then using the mouse select an area round those files and they will be selected.The alternative method if you are being selective about what files you want to move, hold down the -Ctrl- key as you click on each file, and it also becomes selected, and will be highlighted along with other files .\n\nThis is genuinely easier to to than my description might suggest, but be VERY CAREFUL that you don't hit the delete key when more than one file is selected unless you genuinely want to get rid of that file, an easy mistake to make, and easy to recover from by going to your Recycle Bin (get to this from your desktop) and selecting restore files. Equally, be aware of not creating a file called ""Copy of document.doc/picture.jpg"" etc, because that is one sure as hell way to confuse people when they are doing file back up tasks, and this also doubles up the amuont of space the files take on your hard disk because there would be two of them.\n\n*SIDE NOTE* \nIf you have only one drive it will be assigned drive letter (C) personally I would always recommend creating a second volume on your hard disk, and this would be one of the reasons for doing so. Incidentally, any CDrom or DVD and CDRewriter will normally be listed as (D) and (E) drives - this is a completely different way of backing up data, and not in the remit of your question. \n*NOTE ENDS*\n\nThis can also be applied to a folder on a network if you are connected to a network. Repeat all instruction as detailed above, with the exception that if you want to access it 9your backed up data) you will have to re-connect to the network, normally automatic when you log in to your computer - speak to your network administrator about this, if this is applicable.\n\nThank you for reading, and I hope this explains and assures you that it is a really easy task, and even a novice computer user can do this." +whats the next power ball winning numbers?,"14, 23, 28, 31, 43 (19)" +Does anybody know Winchester College?,"The College for young boys?

But take your 5 pound rock to the moon and it would weigh much less even though it still has the same mass. It weighs less because the pull of gravity on the moon is less. As the pull is what gives the rock its acceleration when dropped, it is only the pull that determines how fast something drops. \n\nThe last mission to the moon did the classical experiment of dropping a hammer and a feather at the same time. Since there is no air on the moon they both dropped at the same rate. But it was a rate that was much slower had the hammer been dropped on earth.\n\nSo it isn't the mass, nor an objects weight, but how strong the gravity field the object is in when it is dropped.\n\nThat means on earth all things fall at the same rate. We see a difference when we drop a feather and a hammer on earth because of the friction of the air places greater drag on the feather than on the hammer.\n\nBut they are both pulled down at the same rate by the gravity of the earth." +who won the Chilean presidential election?,Michelle Bachelet is in the lead. +What is spectroscopy? sp?,"Atoms have a nucleus ( composed of protons and neutrons) and a cloud of electrons. The number of the different components varies between different elements.\n\nElectrons can only have specific energy levels in an atom - that is the energy is not continious but quantized. This is different from, say, the solar system, because a planet could theoretically be in any orbit. But we know from quantum mechanics (and many, many experiments) that electons can only occupy certain ""orbits.""\n\nSometimes an electron can be bumped into a higher orbit (the higher orbits have less energy, because they are not as tightly bound) or kicked out of the atom altogether. If a second electron moves into the spot it will release energy as it falls into that level.\n\nHydrogen is the easiest element to study. The nucleus is a single proton, and it can have only one electron. The different energy levels can be illustrated like this:\nhttp://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/hyde.html#c2\n(though in reality electrons don't travel on nice orbits)\n\nIf an electron in the second lowest level does a ""quantum leap"" to the very lowest, it will emit energy - light - at a very specific frequency. In this case 656 nanometers, which is red. If, on the other hand, an electron falls from the 3rd level down to the 1st level the emitted light is blue.\n\nA ""spectrum"" will show all of these distinct levels, with the brighter ones being the most common. This shows the spectrum of hydrogen with a diagram of the quantum leaps:\nhttp://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/hyde.html#c4\n\nIn other atoms it becomes more complex, not every jump is allowed, and in the precense of a magnetic field a ""fine structure"" is seen in the spectrum, as some of the main lines look double.\n\nThe result of all of this is that each different atom will give a different characteristic spectrum. So, you can use this to identify different elements in anything from crime scene samples to distant galaxies." +When do you call it quits if your married?,"Marriage should be a lifetime committment, however, if one of you is unhappy and the other won't listen or try to help make changes so you both can be happy, it's time to call it a day.

Here is some additional information:\n\nThe information highway is a term used especially in the 1990s to describe the Internet. The official project was dubbed the National Information Infrastructure (NII) and went beyond the interconnectivity of just computers; the scope broadened to include all types of data transmissions between a plethora of places, people, and devices. It is often associated with the US politician and former vice president, Al Gore, who promoted funding for programmes that led to aspects of the development of the Internet, although its currency was wider than merely Gore — many policy organisations made pronouncements about the so-called information highway or the variant information superhighway. Both terms are used less frequently now that for many people the Internet has become a less abstract and more concrete thing; the highway analogy, though useful and apt, has perhaps served its purpose.\n\nIt is used in early editions of Wired Magazine as well as Popular Mechanics.\n\nInternet denizens sometimes use these terms in reference to the terms' overuse by traditional popular media (and consequently by non-Internet-users) while the Internet was still becoming mainstream. Compare with the term Interweb.

Its extreme hardness makes it useful in the manufacture of cutting tools, abrasives and bearings, as a cheaper alternative to diamond. Tungsten carbide is also used in wedding rings.\n\nIn a tragic 1945 accident, Harry K. Daghlian, Jr. dropped a brick of tungsten carbide (which is a neutron reflector) onto a plutonium core, causing it to reach critical mass. He died a month later, of radiation exposure.\n\n\nUses in machine tools\nCarbide cutting surfaces are often useful when machining tough materials, such as carbon steel or stainless steel, as well as in situations where other tools would wear away, such as high-quantity production runs. Sometimes, carbide will leave a better finish on the part, and allow faster machining. Carbide tools can also withstand higher temperatures than standard high speed steel tools.\n\nMachining with carbide can be difficult, as carbide is more brittle than other tool materials, making it susceptible to chipping and breaking. To offset this, many manufacturers sell carbide inserts and matching insert holders. With this setup, the small carbide insert is held in place by a larger tool made of a more rigid material (usually steel). This gives the benefit of using carbide without the high cost of making the entire tool out of carbide. Also, the inserts can be changed without losing much accuracy, allowing the machinist to simply swap out a broken insert without re-zeroing the machine. Most modern face mills use carbide inserts, as well as some lathe tools and endmills." +What is Back bonding?,"""Normal"" bonding occurs when a ligand donates electrons to a metal. When a metal ion donates electrons back to the ligand, this is called back-bonding. The combination of normal bonding and back-bonding creates a strong bond between the ligand and the metal.

""Bahá'í"" is either an adjective referring to this religion, or the term for a follower of Bahá'u'lláh.\n\nBahá'í theology speaks of three interlocking unities: the oneness of God (monotheism); the oneness of his prophets or messengers; and the oneness of humanity (equality, world unity, globalism). These three principles have a profound impact on the theological and social teachings of this religion.\n\nReligion is seen as a progressively unfolding process of education, by God, through his messengers, to a constantly evolving human family. Bahá'u'lláh is seen as the most recent, pivotal, but not final of God's messengers. He announced that his major purpose is to lay the spiritual foundations for a new global civilization of peace and harmony, which Bahá'ís expect to gradually arise.\n\n1 Relation to other religions \n1.1 Distinction \n1.2 Persecution \n1.3 The Covenant \n2 Demographics \n3 Teachings \n3.1 Summary \n3.2 Social principles \n3.3 Mystical teachings \n3.4 Study and worship \n4 History \n4.1 The Báb \n4.2 Bahá'u'lláh \n4.3 `Abdu'l-Bahá \n4.4 Bahá'í administration \n5 Current plans and focus \n6 Laws \n7 Places of worship \n8 Calendar \n9 Symbols \n10 Involvement in society \n11 See also \n12 References \n13 External links \n13.1 Official websites of the Bahá'í International Community \n13.2 Other Bahá'í websites \n \nRelation to other religions\nBahá'ís believe in a process of progressive revelation recognising the major religions' founders including Adam, Noah, Zoroaster (Zarathustra), Krishna, Abraham, Moses, Buddha, Jesus, and Muhammad. Like Muslims, Bahá'ís interpret religious history in terms of a series of prophetic dispensations. Each prophet, or Manifestation, brings a somewhat broader and more advanced revelation for the time and place it appeared in. Unlike contemporary Muslims, Bahá'ís do not believe that this process of progressive revelation has an end.\n\n\nDistinction\nThe Bahá'í Faith is not a combination of religions, but is a distinct religious tradition, with its own scriptures, teachings, laws, and history. Even though Bahá'ís have their own distinct teachings, they believe in the divinity of several past messengers of God.\n\nBahá'ís describe their faith as an independent world religion, differing from the other great religious traditions only in its newness. Bahá'u'lláh is thought to fulfill the messianic promises, and other spiritual aspirations, of all these various predecessor faiths.\n\n\nPersecution\nBahá'ís continue to be persecuted in Islamist ruled countries, especially Iran, where over 200 believers were executed between 1978 and 1998. Since the Islamic Revolution of 1979, Iranian Bahá'ís have regularly had their homes ransacked, been banned from attending university or holding government jobs, and several hundred have received prison sentences for their religious beliefs, most recently for participating in study circles. Bahá'í cemeteries have been desecrated and property seized and occasionally demolished, including the House of Mírzá Burzurg, Bahá'u'lláh's father. The House of the Báb in Shiraz has been destroyed twice, and is one of three sites to which Bahá'ís perform pilgrimage. [1] [2] [3] [4]\n\n\nThe Covenant\nOne of the main teachings in the faith is of unity, and Bahá'ís believe that Bahá'u'lláh has guaranteed the unity of their faith by ordaining certain authorities and institutions, which are described at length below. This divine guarantee of the integrity of Bahá'í institutions is known as ""The Covenant of Bahá'u&" +How do you fight a cold sore or fever blister?,Abreva works great!

And 'particle' isn't a very good term since it implies mass when it, in fact, doesn't have mass (it does have momentum however).\n\nParticle examples (called 'photons'):\n- Light is absorbed by atoms and molecules in little bundles/packets. Only bundles of an exact amount of energy can be absorbed and/or released.\n- The photo electric effect: When light strikes the surface of metal it can knock electrons off (due to it's momentum).\n\nWave examples:\n- Light interferes with other light in much the same way water waves do (constructive and destructive interference)." +Coca-cola or pepsi?,always coca cola +Can you point me to a good freeware georeferencing tool?,Do you mean like Google Earth? +Why is Bush so dumb?,"He is dumb.

In all likelihood they don't really care all that much. The general attitude of most people towards criminals is that if they find prison life a bit harsh or brutal, well they earned it didn't they? Following on that thought is likely a ""Maybe he'll think twice about landing in jail a second time."" And that's just the general public, not the folks who are forced to work with murderers and rapists on the one hand, up to petty thieves and drunken idiots on the other. \n\nWhile our society likes to talk about prison as aiming at rehabilitation, for most it is seen as punishment first and foremost. Think of all the ""dropping the soap"" humor. Not too much sympathy for the incarcerated there. Harsh treatment at the hands of one's fellow prisoners is hardly going to greatly concern many working in the penal system who deal with the dregs of humanity on a daily basis unless it rises to the level of an emergency room visit or two. \n\nIf you want there to be action taken on your son's behalf, you are going to have to make it more worthwhile for them to intervene than it is for them to let it slide. That probably means getting a private attorney, the ACLU, an elected official, or the media involved.

I think only states have recall election provisions, and then only some states. I do think, however, that the states could pass a constitutional amendment making the President answerable to the people for his crimes and come clean with all available records, but can you really imagine such a thing happening, with our f'ed up media?\n\nAs I see it, the only ways to get rid of this President are to a) rise up in a mass, anti-Constitutionally elected government revolution, or b)elect a Democratic majority to the House and then successfully impeach both Bush and Cheney simultaneously, thus giving the Presidency to the Speaker of the House, who would be a Democrat. To my mind, that's the only real scenario that works. I suppose if we had a different media and more active populace, a new party could split the vote, and all hell could break loose, but I don't think we're going to see a repeat of what happened in 1860 and Lincoln and the Republican Party takeover of the White House.

As the carbon bits compressed and decompressed their resistance to the flow of electricity varied in proportion to the compression causing current to flow in an external wire that replicated speech as an analog. The external wires were connected to the ear piece of the person receiving your message. The ear piece contained an iron rod wound with many turns of very fine insulated wire forming an electromagnet. When another very thin round diaphragm of sheet metal (attracted to magnets) was held very near the electromagnetic pole but not touching it, it vibrated in proportion to the current changes produced by the mouthpiece; producing sound waves. A power supply (DC battery) was included in the circuit to cause current to flow.\n\nI would first try by placing the mouthpiece diaphragm horizontally over a dish of carbon bits with a pointer connected at the center of the diaphragm dipping into the carbon bits. Gravity will hold the bits in contact with the pointer. The carbon bits may rest on a conducting plate which is lead out of the dish using a connected insulated small diameter wire. A second wire would be connected to the pointer or diaphragm if they both conduct electric flow. Connect the two wires of the mouthpiece to the two wires of the ear piece including your battery in series in the circuit. Use very small voltage by adding 1.5 volt cells in series as needed so as not to burn out the ear piece. Experiment with the pointer and confinement of the carbon bits to optimize the rig.\n\nIncidentally, both the mouthpiece and earpiece can be made of wire coils rather than use carbon bits. Try wiring two earphones together (without a battery) and you can talk in one and hear at the other.

Here is a Newsweek Article with the details:\n\nWhat's Second Prize? \nA reality check on what 'The Apprentice' winners won\n\nBy Ramin Setoodeh\nNewsweek\n\n\nMay 23, 2005 issue - As the winner of the second\n""Apprentice,"" Kelly Perdew should be in line for a top\njob in the Trump organization. But you'd never know\nthat from his office. His desk is in a small,\nwindowless space next to the assistant to Donald\nTrump's wife, Melania (Perdew has no assistant). The\nwalls are bare, except for a dry-erase board and a\nU.S. map, stuck with pins marking the distributors\nhe's signed to buy his boss's new line of bottled\nwater, Trump Ice. ""This is going to be big,"" he vows.\n\nThat, of course, is the same promise Trump made about\nthe job waiting for the lucky contestant who survives\nlong enough to hear him say, ""You're hired.'' (He'll\nbe picking this season's winner on Thursday.) In the\nseries premiere, Trump promised the top prize of a job\nas president of one of his companies. But spend some\ntime with winners of the first two seasons, and the\nreality of this reality show becomes clear: the\napprentices' $250,000-a-year gigs are less about\nclimbing the corporate ladder, and more about using\ntheir ""Apprentice"" celebrity to promote Trump. Then\nagain, perhaps it should come as no surprise that\nTrump may have engaged in a bit of overselling (or\n""truthful hyperbole'' as he's called it). ""It's a\nlittle bit too much to ask someone to be the president\nof a $800 million building when they haven't had that\nkind of experience,'' he says.\n\nPerdew and Bill Rancic, the first season's winner,\nwere given the title of ""owner's representative,'' and\nrecently were also named executive vice presidents. On\nPerdew's first day, his boss introduced him to Florida\ndevelopers working on a Trump-branded condo in Tampa.\n""Mr. Trump said, 'OK, Kelly, you're going to go help\npromote sales of the building',"" Perdew recalls. He\nthen spent about 20 days in the area, chatting on the\nradio, attending parties and talking to the press.\nThese days, he's supposed to split his time between\nlaunching the bottled-water brand and sitting in on\ndiscussions about a new condo in Florida and a\ncommercial building in Manhattan. But his calendar is\nfilled with many distractions—speeches to\nentrepreneurs about Trump and ""The Apprentice,""\ndeadlines for writing a book about how the military\nteaches business skills, and acting in an ad for the\nDepartment of Defense (voice-over by you-know-who).\n\nRancic, ostensibly put in charge of the $800 million\n""Chicago: Trump Tower'' project, seems to spend as\nmuch of his time reliving his TV star turn, too. He'll\nwarm up a crowd of real-estate brokers or potential\nbuyers by talking about ""The Apprentice,"" then the\nmarketing team takes over to talk specifics. ""His\ncelebrity is a draw,"" says Tere Proctor, the\nbuilding's director of sales. The rest of the time, he\nshadows another Trump exec in White Plains, N.Y., to\nlearn about construction. ""I'm getting a full-time\neducation here,"" he says, on his way to inspect a new\nclubhouse on the same golf course his final task was\nstaged. ""I'm not going to be a 20-year employee,"" he\nadds. ""I'm an entrepreneur—my goal is to go on and do\na deal of my own.""\n\nThe jobs may be less than advertised, but they're\nstill enough of a draw to attract some 1 million\npeople who auditioned for season four. For the first\ntime, Trump himself helped choose the finalists who\nwould make it onto his show. Sure, ratings are way\ndown since the first season, but Trump says he's\ngetting more involved because he doe" +what is a liberal???? republican or democrat?,"First, here's a quick definition of what liberalism means as used in America today: \n\n""American liberalism emphasizes mutual collaboration and consensus-building to solve political problems. A liberal in the United States is likely to favor institutions and political procedures that protect and empower the weak against aggression by the strong and guarantee individual freedom from restrictive social norms. Liberals encourage progressive taxation, minimum wages laws, anti-discrimination laws, and social programs.""\n\nMost liberals associate with the Democratic party - Democrats tend to support these sorts of policies. However, not all Democrats are liberals - many are more moderate, and many fiscal conservatives - people who want to minimize government spending in general - have defected from the Republican party recently.\n\nAlso, many people with liberal views may not call themselves liberal - while many liberal views are strongly associated with churches, for example, a number of major churches in the U.S. associate with the Reupublican party due to its stance against abortion. Since the Republican party is currently strongly anti-liberal, many liberal stances have been adopted by the party through the term ""compassionate conservativism,"" which permits the stance without association with the politically charged term ""liberal.""\n\nCommentators like Ann Coulter and Bill O'Reill have recently been involved in a general trend toward writing books which equate liberalism with terrorism, anti-american sentiment, and weakness - for this reason, the word is quite misunderstood now, something that might be apparent in the large amounts of hate present in some of the answers to your question.\n\nI hope this helps give an unbiased view of what liberals believe, and why the word is so politically sensitive right now." +What do women look for in men?,"you will never get an answer that completely solves that question. All women look for something different. some prefer the bad boy, while others look for a guy who is gonna lavish them will gifts.

The problem lately has been that medical inflation has exceeded the inflation in ordinary prices. It is likely that she is fixed in income for the rest of her life given the disparity between medical inflation and consumer inflation on which social security is based. I doubt she will see a net pay increase ever again, based upon the numbers and barring real health care reform.\n\nWhile that looks like a lot, although I am just guestimating, I have recently reviewed employee health coverages. I suspect the average 82 year old should be paying a monthly premium well in excess of $500 per month. Her health care costs are being heavily subsidized by workers, taxpayers and future taxpayers. It sounds like an enormous amount, but it is well below her cost to the system unless she is in very good health.

Freemasonry is a secret or esoteric society, but not occult, in that certain aspects of its internal work are not generally disclosed to the public. Freemasons give numerous reasons for this, one of which is that Freemasonry uses an initiatory system of degrees to explore ethical and philosophical issues, and that the system is less effective if the observer knows beforehand what will happen. It often calls itself ""a beautiful system of morality veiled in allegory and illustrated by symbols." +When US troop will withdraw from Iraq?,When the job is done and no sooner.

There is no particular order to them. For example, if I see a good link, I can throw it in my blog. The tools that most bloggers use make it incredibly easy to add entries to a blog any time they feel like it. \n\n\nBasically, a blog is a lot like an online journal or diary. The author can talk about anything and everything. Many blogs are full of interesting links that the author has found. Blogs often contain stories or little snippets of information that are interesting to the author. \n\nCreating your own blog is now easy because there are Web-based toolsets that make the management of your blog incredibly simple -- Blogger, Xanga, TypePad, and LiveJournal are just a few of the services available. You can create basic blogs for free, and most of these toolsets have additional features available for a price. \n\nCreating a simple blog is free and only takes about five minutes. You enter your name, e-mail address and a few other pieces of information. You select ""the look"" (template) for your blog from a set of standard templates. Click a few buttons and you're done. \n\nNow you can add new entries to your blog. Basically, all you do is type in the entry and push the ""post"" button to post it. You can edit the entry as much as you like by clicking the ""edit"" button. When you are happy with the new entry, you push the ""publish"" button to make your new entry visible on your public blog. \n\nOne of the best Web sites I have found recently is called ExploreMarsNow.com. I added a short entry about it to my blog in about 10 seconds. The entry says simply: \n\nI really like this Web site: ExploreMarsNow. \nThat's it. A blog entry can be that simple.

My experience in this matter (I have set up four DSL and two cable installations) is that it should be assigned automatically if the router isn't detecting those (i.e. the process of detecting it fails) then the router is probably defective, I had that happen to a Netgear router, it wouldn't detect either one, I exchanged it for another one and the new one worked perfectly.

Jinns are made of fire, and they have free will. They will also be held accountable for their deeds on the day of judgment like humans. \n\nJinns are not demons, as there can be good jinns as well. \n\nSatan used to be a good jinn, and he used to be in the company of angels due to his high status. But this made him very arrogant, and he eventually disobeyed God's command, and was rejected. Satan then vowed to lead human beings astray and lead them to fire.\n\nQuote from the Qur'an : Chapter 4, Verses 118-120.\nNote: the word ""Allah"" refers to God in arabic. \n\n4, 118: Allah did curse him, but he (satan) said: ""I will take of Thy servants a portion Marked off; \n\n4, 119: ""I will mislead them, and I will create in them false desires; I will order them to slit the ears of cattle, and to deface the (fair) nature created by Allah.""

This is especially true if you witnessed the violent death of your fiance. \n\nOne of the ways that people grieve is to talk about the person they lost, the event if they witness it, and how their life is different since their loss. One of the problems is that people around you often feel that you should be over it by now, and they may not be as available to listen. So you might want to check out a community bereavement group that might allow you to talk with others over a period of a few months. For many people this helps them to process their loss.\n\nFor the record, I don't think you ever ""get over"" someone, but you are able to put the loss in perspective. I've heard people say that ""I haven't forgotten the person, but I can now think about them without crying!""\n\nYour local hospice, hospital, mental health association or even a local funeral home may offer bereavement groups. Most of the time they are free of charge, as well.\n\nSince you did witness the violent death of your fiance, you might also have some issues related to that trauma itself.

Stellar (star) sized black holes have to be above the Chandresekhar limit of 3.2 solar masses, and are formed through the gravitational collapse of stars. They can form whenever conditions are right. These are the types of black holes that astronomers infer from binary X-ray sources and the like.\n\nMicro black holes, on the other hand, can only have been formed in the initial moments of the Big Bang, when intense pressures during cosmic expansion could have collapsed masses smaller than our sun into singularities. According to Dr. Stephen Hawking's theory of black hole evaporation, all singularities lose mass, through a type of evaporation (the actual mechanism, having to do with vaccum energy and particle/antiparticle pairs is a bit complicated) with smaller black holes evaporating faster than large ones. By this logic, most micro-holes would have evaporated out of existence in the thirteen billion years the universe has been around, while the larger micro-holes (things with the mass of, say, Neptune) should still be around, though hard to spot." +What is the capital of Mozambique? and the name of the Ocean .?,"Maputo, the Indian Ocean\n\nWhat is wrong with you?

There is no meaning.\n\nWi-Fi and the ying yang style logo were invented by Interbrand. We (the founding members of the Wireless Ethernet Compatibility Alliance, now called the Wi-Fi Alliance) hired Interbrand to come up with the name and logo that we could use for our interoperability seal and marketing efforts. We needed something that was a little catchier than ""IEEE 802.11b Direct Sequence"". Interbrand created ""Prozac"", ""Compaq"" ""oneworld"", ""Imation"" and many other brand names that you have heard of. They even created the company name ""Vivato"".\n\nThe only reason that you hear anything about ""Wireless Fidelity"" is some of my colleagues in the group were afraid. They didn't understand branding or marketing. They could not imagine using the name ""Wi-Fi"" without having some sort of literal explanation. So we compromised and agreed to include the tag line ""The Standard for Wireless Fidelity"" along with the name. This was a mistake and only served to confuse people and dilute the brand. For the first year or so( circa 2000) , this would appear in all of our communications. I still have a hat and a couple of golf shirts with the tag line. Later, when Wi-Fi was becoming more successful and we got some marketing and business people from larger companies on the board, the alliance dropped the tag-line.\n\nThis tag line was invented after the fact. After we chose the name Wi-Fi from a list of 10 names that Interbrand proposed. The tag line was invented by the initial six member board and it does not mean anything either. If you decompose the tag line, it falls apart very quickly. ""The Standard""? The Wi-Fi Alliance has always been very careful to stay out of inventing standards. The standard of interest is IEEE 802.11. The Wi-Fi Alliance focuses on interoperability certification and branding. It does not invent standards. It does not compete with IEEE. It complements their efforts. So Wi-Fi could never be a standard. And ""Wireless Fidelity"" - what does that mean? Nothing. It was a clumsy attempt to come up with two words that matched Wi and Fi. That's it.\n\nSo we were smart to hire Interbrand to come up with the name and logo. We were dumb to confuse and water down their efforts by adding the meaningless tag line. Please help reinforce the good work that we did and forget the tag line. \n\nMore info here...\nhttp://www.boingboing.net/2005/11/08/wifi_isnt_short_for_.html" +What kind of notebook should my father buy?,A great starting point is NotebookReview.com. +Who has the highest IQ in the world and what is his/her IQ and age?,"Marilyn Savant has an I.Q. score of 228, the highest ever recorded for an adult. Savant's parents decided to withhold the information from the public in order to avoid commercial exploitation and to assure a normal childhood. Bored with college life at Washington University, she left after two years to launch a career in stocks, real estate, and investments. Her real interest had always been writing but realized that she first needed a financial base to support herself. Within five years, her personal investments afforded her the financial independence to become a full-time writer. Savant wrote novels, short stories, and magazine/newspaper pieces, mostly political satire, under a pseudonym. Savant's attempt at anonymity ended in 1985 when the Guinness Book of World Records obtained her I.Q. test scores from the Mega Society, a group whose membership is restricted to those with only the highest I.Q. scores. The members' I.Q. has to be higher than 99.999%. Savant's I.Q. score was more than double the person with normal intellect and 88 points higher than the genius level. Savant has published books like I've Forgotten Everything I Learned In School and Hard Facts About Its Absence In Our Lives." +Why do we yawn?,"Aparantly there are three theories as to why we yawn\n\nThe Physiological Theory -- Our bodies induce yawning to drawn in more oxygen or remove a build-up of carbon dioxide. This theory helps explain why we yawn in groups. Larger groups produce more carbon dioxide, which means our bodies would act to draw in more oxygen and get rid of the excess carbon dioxide. However, if our bodies make us yawn to drawn in needed oxygen, wouldn't we yawn during exercise? Robert Provine, a psychologist at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County, and a leading expert on yawning, has tested this theory. Giving people additional oxygen didn't decrease yawning and decreasing the amount of carbon dioxide in a subject's environment also didn't prevent yawning. \nThe Evolution Theory -- Some think that yawning is something that began with our ancestors, who used yawning to show their teeth and intimidate others. An offshoot of this theory is the idea that yawning developed from early man as a signal for us to change activities. \nThe Boredom Theory -- In the dictionary, yawning is said to be caused by boredom, fatigue or drowsiness. Although we do tend to yawn when bored or tired, this theory doesn't explain why Olympic athletes yawn right before they compete in their event. It's doubtful that they are bored with the world watching them" +does this really work?,"yes, no, maybe, sometimes..." +"Why is the head of a coin associated positively, and tails as negative?","i think its just that heads is considered the top and tails the bottom. it's good to be on top. on top of things, on top of the food chain, on top of the world, at the top of a company... you don't want to be at the bottom of any of these things.

Unlike the myths that some perpetuate, federal government and even private foundations hardly give grant money for a for-profit business. And yes, grants mean PAPERWORK - lots and lots of it, that is why a cottage industry of grant writers was born.\n\nNonetheless, you can go to the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) http://www.cfda.gov and Grants.gov http://www.grants.gov - these are two sites created by the federal government to provide transparency and information on grants. Browse through the listings and see if you can find any grant that would support a for-profit venture.\n\nEven if you buy books on ""how to get grants"" or list that supposedly has information on grants -- all of them are mere rehash of what CFDA has, albeit packaged differently. But still the info is the same - hardly any grants for starting a for profit business.\n\nEven SBA does NOT give out grants. From the SBA website http://www.sba.gov/expanding/grants.html... \n\n""The U.S. Small Business Administration does not offer grants to start or expand small businesses, although it does offer a wide variety of loan programs. (See http://www.sba.gov/financing for more information) While SBA does offer some grant programs, these are generally designed to expand and enhance organizations that provide small business management, technical, or financial assistance. These grants generally support non-profit organizations, intermediary lending institutions, and state and local governments.""\n\nMost of the federal grants are given to specific target groups with specific requirements (e.g. minority business owners involved in transportation related contracts emanating from DOT - Grant#20.905 Disadvantaged Business Enterprises Short Term Lending Program \n\nGrants are also often given to non profit groups or organizations involved in training or other similar activities (grant 59.043 Women's Business Ownership Assistance that are given to those who will create women's business center that will train women entrepreneurs \n\nFor private grants, you may want to check the Foundation Center's Foundation Grants for Individuals Online. It's a subscription based website ($9.95 per month) but their opening blurb only says that the database is ideal for ""students, artists, academic researchers, libraries and financial aid offices.""

On December 21, those of us who live in the Northern \nHemisphere will experience the shortest day of the year. You might assume \nthat the 21st also features the latest sunrise and the earliest sunset of the \nyear, but in fact, this isn't true. To understand what's happening, we have to \nexamine a lovely curve known as the analemma. We start with the fact that \nour method of reckoning time is based on the sun's daily trip across the sky. \nSpecifically, we've regarded mid-way, or ""noon"" as that time when the sun is \nhighest in the sky, half-way between sunrise and sunset. \nYou can generate the analemma by plotting the position of the sun in your \nsky at the same time each day, as astrophotographer Fank Zullo did several \nyears ago. Between September 9, 1990, and August 23, 1991, he made 37 \nexposures of the sun on a single film frame. Each photo was taken at exactly \n8:00 a.m. MST.

They are responsible for women who live together, as in a dorm, synchronizing their ovulatory cycles. Men emit some at a regular rate, but the importance of this is not understood. At stronger concentrations these pheromones have a musky, even offensive, smell - thus the prevalence of musk-type perfumes trying to mimic the effect.

In like manner, if heat is used to warm something that is then removed from the room, some of the heat (supplied to the object) will become unavailable. But heat of friction or heat used to warm anything that remains in the room will be available to heat the air in the room. Open doors or ventilation can exhaust heat. Large motors with power factors may be a special case because of phase angles. However, most equipment such as small motors, heaters, TV sets, computers and light bulbs should convert almost all electrical energy into heat. Therefore the Watts of electricity listed on the equipment label should all be converted to the equivalent amount of heat." +Where can i find a job online?,The following sites can help you :\n\n(1) http://www.monster.com/\n(2) http://www.jobshark.com/\n(3) http://www.job-hunt.org/\n(4) http://www.ajb.dni.us/\n(5) http://www.hotjobs.com/\n(6) http://www.jobbus.com/\n(7) http://www.careerbuilder.com/ +What kind of sign language can you send to a women to indicate that you want to have sex with her?,"You make eye contact with her, then make a circle with one hand.

Here's the long one:\n\nTrapiche emeralds are in a class by themselves. Found only in Colombia at Coscuez, La Peña and the celebrated Muzo mining district, these are perhaps the rarest of ""pattern"" gems, and certainly the most unusual amongst the big three (emerald, ruby, and sapphire). Their six spoke-like carbon ""rays"" emanating from a hexagonal center with the areas in between filled with lively emerald green makes this a gem you'll never forget once you see one. These rays appear much like asterism, but, unlike asterism, they are not caused by light reflection from tiny parallel inclusions, but by black carbon impurities that happen to form in the same pattern. A TRAPICHE is the result of the growth of an Emerald Crystal with the darkened impurity of lutite. As the Crystal grows in its normal six-sided shape, the darker lutite is pushed to the center of the Crystal and then radiates out in the six directions of the corners of the Crystal. It is an absolutely amazing natural process that creates an Emerald Crystal with a six leg ""star"" of the darker Lutite\n\nThe earliest reference to trapiche emeralds was in an 1879 French mineralogical bulletin. It was more than 36 years later before it appeared again, remarkable because such literary greats as George Kunz were writing much around the turn of the Century. Gemological examination show that the trapiche is a single crystal not a twinned specimen as on though. A 1970, analysis of MUZO´s trapiche emerald by Nassau and Jackson, found that the principal coloring agent was vanadium.\n \n \n Trapiche is the Spanish word for a spoked wheel used to grind sugar cane which bears a striking resemblance to the pattern in these emeralds. It is pronounced trah-pee-chee with the accent on the second syllable.\n\nThere are two types of trapiche emeralds. \n\nThe ""A"" this type has fine bands and lighter emerald separating the sections. Very clean crystals, with center lines, usually from Muzo mine. Is very rare Trapiche emeralds of more than 6 carats in this type of Trapiches.\n\n\n\nThe more prized is ""B"" type, ranges from 2 to 50 carats and has distinct carbon bands with deep green color. There is just few specimens that meet all standars of high quality Trapiches:Color, Center lines and good cut.\n\nTrapiche emeralds are valued based on a number of factors. \n\n1- The most important is the definition, completeness, and centering of the ""rays."".\n2- A close second factor is the color of the emerald which ideally is deep, saturated, and even.\n3-And third, and also quite important, is the quality of the cut. \n\nYou have to see our trapiche collection to appreciate the quality it has on all three counts: the rays are clean and distinct, the color is intense and even, and the cut is superb including some sculpturing underneath to add appeal and eliminate unnecessary weight." +Is Tin Pan Alley in New York City still in existence?,"Tin Pan Alley was the name given to the collection of New York City-centered music publishers and songwriters who dominated the popular music of the United States of America in the late 19th century and the early 20th century.\n\nThe start of Tin Pan Alley is usually dated to about 1885, when a number of music publishers set up shop in the same district of Manhattan. The end of Tin Pan Alley is less clear cut; some date it to the start of the Great Depression in the 1930s when the phonograph and radio finally supplanted sheet music as the driving force of American popular music, while others consider Tin Pan Alley to have continued on into the 1950s when earlier styles of American popular music were upstaged by the rise of rock & roll.\n\nTin Pan Alley was originally a specific place, West 28th Street between Broadway and Sixth Avenue in Manhattan.\n\nThe name ""Tin Pan Alley"" was originally derogatory, a reference to the sound made by many pianos all playing different tunes in this small urban area, producing a cacophony comparable to banging on tin pans. With time this nickname was popularly embraced and many years later it came to describe the USA music industry in general." +How do i get to Heaven?,"God is not this vicious being that punishes people by casting them into Hell for their sins.

As you said, there's no aether or medium.\n\nThe ""warping"" is kind of a metaphor for what happens in a mathematical model. They talk about that and the rubber mat to help people visualize something that's really difficult to grasp, or even believe.\n\nWe've all learned from Newton that an object in motion will continue moving in the same direction and speed unless acted upon by another force. Well, you can describe gravity as an outside force, as Newton did, and that's pretty easy to understand. A comet comes flying by the Earth, but the Earth's gravity continually pulls on the comet, and changes its course.\n\nGeneral Relativity takes a different approach to describing the effect of gravity. It says that gravity isn't a force. In its version of reality, the comet keeps moving in a perfectly straight line. Except that a mass can bend the lines. Yeah. No aether or medium. But straight lines are bending. It's a model to describe how gravity has the effect it has.\n\nWhy do scientists buy into this? Well, experiment has shown that gravity bends light, and our current understanding of light says that light has no mass. So the old model of gravity, which acts only on mass, can't explain this." +what to invest in.?,I would take \n\n60k and head for wal-mart \n\n20k on recycled plastics / the lasted is the 6x6 or 8x8 wood planks.\n\n10k on cancer restriction\n\n5k on a new house\n\n2k on my mother in law\n\n3k will be divided (i a savings for my kids) +what is BETA?,"A beta version or beta release represents the first version of the software that has passed system testing and regression testing. These tests occurred were performed in a test environment using hardware and data constructed for the purposes of testing. The beta build is now ready for a beta test, in which it is tested through a limited roll-out to a production environment using live data and real users. The beta test is closely monitored by the software testers.\n\nSome development teams use the term beta informally to denote build of the software that is stable enough to be useful for internal demonstrations and previews to select customers, but not yet ready for release. Some developers refer to this stage as a preview, as a technical preview (TP) or as an early access. Often this stage begins when the developers announce a feature freeze on the product, indicating that no more features will be added to this version of the product and only software issues, or bugs, will be removed. Beta versions stand at an intermediate step in the full development cycle. Developers release them to a group of beta testers (sometimes the general public) for a user test. The testers report any bugs that they found and sometimes minor features they would like to see in the final version.\n\nWhen a beta becomes available to the general public it is often widely used by the technologically savvy and those familiar with previous versions as though it were the finished product. Usually developers of freeware or open-source betas release them to the general public while proprietary betas go to a relatively small group of testers. In February 2005, ZDNet published an article about the recent phenomenon of a beta version often staying for years and being used as if it were in production-level [1]. It notes that Gmail and Google News, for example, have been in beta for a long period of time and are not expected to drop the beta status despite the fact that they have been widely used. This technique may also allow a developer to delay offering full support and/or responsibility for remaining issues. Recipients of highly proprietary betas may have to sign a non-disclosure agreement.\n\nAs the second major stage in the development cycle, following the alpha stage, it is named after the Greek letter beta, the second letter in the Greek alphabet" +What is the best type of flower to send a woman?,"It depends entirely on her personality.\n\nFor a wild partyin' woman, get her something big and loud like orchids.\nFor a nice, sweet, simple woman, get her something like roses.\nFor a dear lover, get her lylacs or johnson grass or something like that." +"Who makes the better CPU, Intel or AMD?","AMD not just for the value but for superior performance as well.

It peaks in intensity in the visible wavelengths (green, actually), but emits also ultraviolet and infrared. The longer wavelengths will move through undisturbed, because they have a lower energy than short wavelengths. So when a short wavelength light ray hits particles in the air, it bounces off in all directions. Blue is a much shorter wavelength than red, and so more blue is scattered due to the air.\n\nWhen the sun is setting, sunlight has more atmosphere to penetrate through to get into your eye (draw a diagram to convince yourself). Thus, the blue light is all scattered away by the time it reaches your eye, and what you see left is the red light (longer wavelength light).\n\nIf you can get your hands on a nice bright projector, fill an aquarium with water and shine the projector through onto a white screen. The white light will be red at the end of the aquarium, but blue if you turn it on the side.

If one could be made, it is very unlikely that you would be able to see all the planets. I am sure you would only see The gas giants Jupiter and Saturn - as dots; maybe you will see Neptune and Uranus, that is about it. From earth if you look at Jupiter in the night sky it is as big as a star - though one of the brightest objects in night sky. From a position where you could see all the planets (the solar system is bigger than that, but let us restrict ourselves to only Pluto's orbit) you would see it as much smaller. Jupiter is 1,600 times bigger than earth (volume). Sun is a million times bigger. From most cities you can see Mars, Saturn, Jupiter and Venus. From a position where you could take a picture of all the planets you wont see all of them.\n\nEDIT: btw, I just remember I was talking about visibility of sun and planets. Actually if a photograph were taken jupiter and sun will be visible. The Sun is a star it will be visible not due to its size but due to the amount of light it gives. If we plotted it on a graph based only on its size and not its luminosity, it will be as visible as anything on the graph and no more. So if we drew an illustration 1024 pixels wide (most 17 inch computer screens are 1024x768 pixels) and put sun on the left most pixel and Neptune on the right most pixel - none of them will be visible. The distance between sun and earth is 1 AU (1 astronomical unit). Sun's Diameter is 1/150 AU, Neptune is 30 AU away from sun. If we scale 30AU to a 1024 pixel screen every pixel is equal to 0.029 AU, anything smaller than 0.029 AU can not be represented on this screen, the sun is 0.006AU wide - 1/5th of a pixel.

Molecular nanotechnology is usually considered distinct from the more inclusive term ""nanotechnology"", which is now used to refer to a wide range of scientific or technological projects that focus on phenomena or properties of the nanometer scale (around 0.1-100nm). Nanotechnology is already a blossoming field, but molecular nanotechnology - the goal of productive, molecular-scale machine systems - is still in the preliminary research stage.\n\nNanotechnology was first introduced in 1959, in a talk by the Nobel Prize-winning physicist Richard Feynman, entitled ""There's Plenty of Room at the Bottom"". Feynman proposed using a set of conventional-sized robot arms to construct a replica of themselves, but one-tenth the original size, then using that new set of arms to manufacture an even smaller set, and so on, until the molecular scale is reached. If we had many millions or billions of such molecular-scale arms, we could program them to work together to create macro-scale products built from individual molecules - a ""bottom-up manufacturing"" technique, as opposed to the usual technique of cutting away material until you have a completed component or product - ""top-down manufacturing"".\n\nFeynman's idea remained largely undiscussed until the mid-80s, when the MIT-educated engineer K. Eric Drexler published ""Engines of Creation"", a book to popularize the potential of molecular nanotechnology. Because MNT would allow manufacturers to fabricate products from the bottom up with precise molecular control, a very wide range of chemically possible structures could be created. Since MNT systems could put every molecule in its specific place, molecular manufacturing processes could be very clean and efficient. Also, because every little bit of matter in an molecular nanotechnology system would be part of a nano-scale manipulator, nanotechnological systems could be far more productive and maintain much higher throughputs than modern manufacturing techniques, which use macro-scale manipulators to fabricate products.\n\nTo initiate an MNT revolution would require an ""assembler"" - a reprogrammable nano-scale manipulator capable of creating a wide range of molecular structures, including a complete copy of itself. The first assemblers will only function effectively in lab-controlled environments, such as a vacuum. The advent of self-replicating molecular nanomachines could quickly lead to ""desktop nanofactories"", tabletop appliances that consume modest amounts of power and contain the software required to manufacture an interesting range of useful products. The arrival of MNT would revolutionize wide sectors of human activity, including manufacturing, medicine, scientific research, communication, computing, and warfare. When full-blown molecular nanotechnology will arrive is currently unknown, but many experts foresee its arrival between 2010 and 2020.\n\n\nNANOTECHNOLOGY INTRODUCTION\nWhat is Nanotechnology?\nLast Updated: Tuesday, 03-May-2005 16:46:15 PDT \nThe term ""nanotechnology"" has evolved over the years via terminology drift to mean ""anything smaller than microtechnology,"" such as nano powders, and other things that are nanoscale in size, but not referring to mechanisms that have been purposefully built from nanoscale components. See our ""Current Uses"" page for examples. This evolved version of the term is more properly labeled ""nanoscale bulk technology,"" while the original meaning is now more properly labeled ""molecular nanotechnology"" (MNT), or ""nanoscale engineering,"" or ""molecular mechanics,"" or ""molecular machine systems,"" or ""molecular manufacturing" +Is there a non-prescription cure/treatment for depression?,"I am not a doctor but some people get good results with a herb which i will not name.

We are missing over 2 billion tons of carbon each year that we cannot account for. This carbon is being absorbed by some part of the planet that we have not been able to identify. \n\nI quote:""Given this analysis we find that there is an imbalance -- we need an additional ""sink"" of -2.2 (3 - 5.2) x1015 g C to balance the global C budget. In other words, we are ""missing"" over 2 billion tons of C each year; this shows how incomplete our understanding of the global carbon cycle is at present. Although it is possible that this missing sink could be found in any of the major pools of carbon on earth, it is most likely that the pools with a shorter residence time such as vegetation, soils or the ocean (compared to rocks) are most important. Recent models indicate that terrestrial ecosystems are the most likely repository of this carbon.""\n\n From :http://www.globalchange.umich.edu/globalchange1/current/lectures/kling/carbon_cycle/carbon_cycle_new.html\n\nThis inablity to balance the carbon cycle using our present understanding of carbon inputs and carbon sinks shows how poorly we understand the global carbon cycle. What this means, is that based on our understanding of the carbon man is putting into the atmosphere, we should actually have MUCH more carbon in the atmosphere. We can't account for it all, and this is one reason global warming due to carbon dioxide is still a controversial idea." +my comuter has many spyware now. how can i take them out of my computer?,There are a number of FREE utilities that are good at this.

Most Cable providers will give you a discount on a high speed connection if you are already a subscriber to their cable TV service.\n\nThere is no difference between a wired and wireless connection in regards to speed and quality. But you will need to get a wireless router (I like Netgear and Linksys but D-Links are one sale right now for $21 after rebate). If you have a laptop, it probably already has a WiFi card in it. If you have a desktop you will need to get either a USB WiFi adapater (easier to install) or a PCI WiFi card. Of course that doesn't matter if the PC is in the same room as the DSL modem.\n\nCheck out the links below for routers and adapters and how to install a WiFi network.

The point to keep in mind is that the Child Support Systems are usually divided into multiple sections. For those who work with individuals involved in the various cases, those who look out for the interests of the children, those are involved in the getting payments form the State to the primary care giver of the child, and those who collect money owed by a parent of record who is mandated by the court to make payments. \n\nThese departments must follow the orders of the court. That is, a parent who is working to be involved in the life of the child is a great thing, but if they are not paying their court ordered child support payments, these departments have no choice but to act for the court and collect the funds from the delinquent parent. \n\nIf a parent disagrees with the amount owed (for whatever reason), their argument is not with the State departments but with the court and they must go back to the court to have a new order issued.\n\nHere in Iowa they will go after the delinquent parent irregardless of their job position and this includes working with other States. Only the court can change this reality.\n\nI realize that it can be frustrating, but the parents are best served if they do not try to mix things such as visitations and child support payments, the courts view them as two different actions." +what do you think about the role of US in the modern society?,Well! according to me the role of US in the modern society has changed from the past.

Although I was peripherally aware of the concept, and had previously heard mentions of the WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines), it was never something I thought I needed to concern myself with. However, researching some of the legal requirements involving educational websites in the UK, I inevitably came across SENDA (Special Educational Needs and Disabilities Act) and the wider DDA (Disabilities Discrimination Act). To summarise very broadly, the DDA demands, among other things, that the provision of goods and services should be (within reason) accessible to anybody. In its initial state, the DDA did only cover businesses and government bodies, making a special exception for educational establishments. SENDA, which effectively became part IV of the DDA, removed this special status, bringing education back under the general provisions of the main DDA. \n\nAlthough the Act itself does not directly mention web sites, the 'Code of Practice - Rights of Access Goods, Facilities, Services and premises' does, and it is understood that therefore all government, education and business sites need to make 'reasonable adjustments' to ensure a basic level of accessibility. \n\nSo, having started my position as web editor at the University of Salford and realising the legal requirement imposed by SENDA/DDA, I began delving deeper into the subject of accessibility. What I found was that, even among 'seasoned' web managers in the UK education sector and beyond, there was a lot of ignorance and confusion - coupled with misinformed management concerned with 'Bobby validation' as the be all and end all. \n\nThis sorry state of affairs, combined with the fact that, deep down, I feel that accessibility is simply the ethically/morally right thing to do, led me to explore this subject further. I find it fascinating that even though in recent years more and more sites, books and even conferences have been devoted to accessibility, there are still many grey areas once you move beyond the basics, where even experts can furiously disagree. It's not all cut and dry, and in many instances one has to take a pragmatic approach, weighing up how things should be done (according to things like W3C specifications or even common sense) against how they work in practice (in light of flaky browser or assistive technology support, for instance)." +Why doesn't the Detroit Piston get the respect that they deserve?,They get a ton of respect.

He considers his condition ""God's punishment"" and doesn't want to be considered for the world record title, hence he has refused so far to be measured by officials of the Guinness Book of Records.\n\nBy the way, the tallest man ever recorded was an American by the name of Robert ""Pershing"" Wadlow (1918-1940), born and buried in Alton, Illinois. His height of 8' 11.1"" qualifies him as the tallest person in history, as recorded in the Guinness Book of Records." +Is there a possiblity of a war between Iran and Israel?,"1. Iran didn't threaten Israel, the Iranian president said it should be wiped off map, and it doesn't mean anything, and is just a slogan.\n2. Israel won't dare attacking Iran, cause it knows how much military power iran has. If the war happens it would be some thing like the war between Iraq and Iran. All the western and Arabic countries supported Iraq, but Iran relied on it's people and won the war, even though it ended with a peace agreement, every one knows the winner of that war was Iran.\n3. Western countries won't let Israel attack Iran. Iran is one of the world's biggest suppliers of oil. The price of oil is currently about 60 dollars, with a war the price is going to be about 80-90 dollars, and it would cause unrecoverable damages to the economy of western countries.\n4. Iran is much larger than Israel and has a bigger and stronger army. The power of the armies of both countries almost matches up in air force, and navy. But iran has a much stronger Army. Israel is small so if Iran target Israel with missle, Israel will experience unrecoverable damages. But Israel can't target Iran with missles, and if it does it can't make that much of a damage.( Note the new anti missle and aircraft systems Iran bought from Russia, which covers the entire western parts of Iran.) \n5. There are alot of american forces around Iran that if Israel attacks and U.S. supports it, Iran can easily hit them. \n6. Iran has alot of allies around Israel. Syria, Lebanon, and even Palestine.\n7. People of Iran fully support it in war, even if they hate their government, the spirit of Iranians is that they won't let any foreign person or country rule over them, and as they did in the war between Iran and Iraq they will fully support their country in the war.\n8. God is with Iranians. Iranians have a strong faith in god, and with that faith they can do anything.\n9. I would definately take the side of Iran. Iran has the best and most reasonable democracy and system of government in the world. Israel is not a legal state, and has never been." +Where to make my money grow faster?,"I would have your money automatically withdrawn from you checking account when you get your payday deposit and have it go to a savings account somewhere that is difficult to access (difficult to transfer money back and forth).

It is a game which requires precision in timing, skill, discipline and patience. Though cricket isn't always a spectacular showpiece, basic knowledge of the game will make it more enjoyable. \n\n\nCricket is played with two teams of eleven, each with two umpires (referees) on an oval field. The size of the field varies, but generally has a diameter of around 200 metres. A cricket bat is oblong shaped with a skinny handle. The bat in length is around 90 centimetres, or up to your waistline. A cricket ball is made of cork and coated with leather, and is then stitched up. A ball weighs around 10 ounces. \n\n\n \nIn the middle of the field is what is known as a pitch. A pitch is a hard, flat strip of dry ground around 18 metres long. Two batsman are at the pitch at a time, both at different ends, with one facing the delivery of the ball from the bowler. The bowler runs up to the pitch where he bowls the ball overarm but releases the ball before he reaches the crease, which is a white line painted on the pitch. If the bowler oversteps the line, there is a one run penalty. \n\n\nTeams score by getting runs. A run is completed when a batsman hits the ball and then runs to the other end of the cricket pitch, getting past the crease. The non striking batsman has to run to the opposite end as well. The batsman can run as many times as they like, but the batsmen can get out if their stumps are hit with the ball by a fielder before the batsman reaches the crease. The stumps are three sticks of equal size measuring around 90 centimetres tall with 5 centimetres separating them. Bails (small pieces of wood) are balanced on top of the stumps. \n\n\nOther ways runs can be scored are by hitting boundaries. Boundaries are scored when the ball is hit and touches or goes past the outer edge of the field. Four runs are scored when the batsmen hits the ball and the ball hits the ground before reaching the outer edge of the boundary, and six runs are scored when the ball is hit and goes over the boundary without touching the ground. Runs can also be scored in the following ways: No balls, when the bowler oversteps the crease, bowls in a dangerous manner or incorrectly, or if the ball rises above the batsmans head. A no ball is worth one run. A wide is scored when the ball goes outside the line of the pitch before coming in line with the batsman. This is also worth one run. A leg bye is scored when the ball hits the batsman but doesnt contact his bat and then proceeds to run. A bye is scored when the batsman runs without the ball coming into into contact with the batsman or his bat, and then runs. \n\n\nThe fielding team can get the batsman out in several ways, by 1) catching him out. This is done when the batsman hits the ball with his bat and a fielder catches the ball on the full. By 2) bowling him out. This happens when the bowler bowls the ball and the ball strikes the batsmans stumps or bails. By 3) leg before wicket, or LBW. This happens when the bowler bowls it and the stumps being hit by the ball are prevented when the batsmans leg gets in the way. By 4) stumped, when the batsman comes forward to hit the hit but steps out of his crease, misses the ball and the fielder behind the stumps collects the ball hits the stumps before the batsman gets back behind his crease. By 5) run out, when the batsman attempts to score a run but has his stumps hit by the ball before he reaches the other crease. By 6) Hit wicket, when the batsman hits his own stumps while trying to hit the ball.By 7) retired, when the batsman voluntarily decides to finish his innings, and 8)timed out, when the next batsman doesnt appear on the pitch within two minutes of the last batsman getting out. \n\n\nEach team has one inning of 50 overs. An over is a series of 6 bowls by a bowler. Each bowler c" +why woman wear pampers?,Do you mean pads?\n\nIt's called menstruation.\n\nTalk to your parents or a trusted adult about it. +How do I bring back the dead I miss my Dad?,"I UNDERSTAND YOUR WISH,BUT AS YOU KNOW,WE CANT BRING BACK THE DEAD.PLUS HE NEVER LEFT YOU, YOU JUST DON'T SEE HIM." +Where does the liability fall if a persons answer on this website causes harm?,"What's your concern?\nHow do you imagine an answer, right or wrong or misleading, causing harm?

That’s the worst thing you can do in a diet because it slows down your metabolism and your body starts getting more fat from your food intake since, fat is the bodies fastest and easiest type of nutrition[not the healthiest though]. The reason this happen is because this helped us when we were no doing so good as hunters and gathers to keep us alive a bit longer. \n\nBefore I continue let me explain protein, carbohydrates, and fats.\n\nProtein is easiest described as anything that comes from or was an animal such chicken, fish, sirloin, and milk. \n\nCarbohydrates [carbs] can be found almost in anything else even apples.\nGood carbs:\nApples, wheat bread, sourdough bread, grains, and wheat \nBad carbs:\nWhite bread, hamburger buns, hotdog buns, Doritos, and sodas!\n\nGood fats:\nAvocados, pecans, almonds, and peanut butter \n\nThe ratio in your diet varies but I think a good starting point is something like\n[50%Protien:40%Carbs:10%fat]\n\nThis can sound meaningless. So in plain terms consume only good fats [portioned] and you should be okay. Something like a handful of almonds, or a table spoon of peanut butter should be consumed three times a day [separately. not consecutively]. \n\nThe reason this is relevant to your question of decreasing your appetite is because you are required to intake around 1200 calories for a 180lb person [Proteins are 4 calories, Carbs are 4 calories, Fats are 9 calories] so theoretically if you eat less fats and more proteins you will have a less appetite because you will eat more. \n\nAnother nifty advice is that your body turns carbohydrates into fat not fat itself. That’s how the Adkins basically works. If you consume more proteins and less carbs you will lose weight. I leave to you to decide if this is good you.\n\nI would also advice you to split up your day into 5 meals. [warning: it will feel weird because you are not used to eating this decreased amount. Just keep in mind that you will eat in 3 hour and you will quickly noticed that you will not go hungry and most importantly not feel hungry] if you do feel hungry eat a small snack like an apple or a wrap of peanut butter with a wheat tortilla.\n\nYou are suppose to split up meals because your body can consume a certain amount of nutrition the rest is just wasted and turned into fat [if you have been starving yourself or if you don’t exercise]." +how to be sucessful is education important to achive any thing in life?,a little bit +Does the centre of mass of a body necessarily lie inside the body?,"No. As a simple example, imagine a snake curled into a perfect circle.

(The Japanese word ""kanban"" is a common everyday term meaning ""sign"" or ""card"" and utterly lacks the specialized meaning which this loanword has acquired in English.) According to Taiichi Ohno, the man credited with developing JIT, kanban is the means by which JIT is managed.\n\nKanban is a signaling system. As its name suggests, Kanban uses cards to signal the need for an item. Other devices such as plastic markers (Kanban squares) or balls (often golf balls) can also be used to trigger the movement, production, or supply of a unit in a factory.\n\nFor example, in the production of a widget, the operator has two shelves, one on either side of the workplace. The raw materials arrive on one shelf and the finished article on the other. These shelves act as kanbans.The outgoing kanban signals the customer's need so that when it is empty, the operator must produce one more widget.\n\nThe Kanban is sized so that it can only hold however many the customer needs (usually one). When the operator begins work, he takes the raw material from the incoming kanban, thus signalling to the supplier that he needs more.\n\nKanban is in a way a reactive system and very little is planned ahead.

Of course I wouldn't call Afghanistan rebuilt when 95% of their economy is from the sale of opiates (I am against prohibition, but Bush isn't). Even today, after the supposed elections and overthrow of the taliban, the only way an afghan woman can make any kind of living is to work in the opium fields.\n\nWe all saw the buildup for war. He and his messengers (condie, rumsfeld, right wing puppet congressmen) had us all believing that we were about to be nuked. The sad thing is that the public at large bought right into it. I must say he even got me wondering just what Mr. Saddam had up his sleeve. I suppose that's why I was rather exited to watch the war on tv, I just wanted to see what this guy had. I watched the sabre rattling in the weeks leading up to 'shock and awe'. It was entertaining to watch these two morons square off. I thought Saddam would have had more of a back bone though. I expected to see a tienemen square scecne in Bahgdad, but right away I could tell once we entered the capitol that something was wrong.\n\nIf Bush had been right, I have no doubt that Saddam would have used those weapons on American soldiers. But they never existed. Just like the second attack at the gulf of Tonkin. It never happened. LBJ however did not lie himself, rather his advisors lied to him. True, Johnson was willing and ready to pounce should a tit-for-tat oppertunity present itself. He believed the second attack on a stranded US cruiser was just such an oppertunity. His advisors knew of his willingness to decalre war and fed him intel that would lead him in that direction. LBJ wanted to look strong on defence and strong against communism going into a tough 1964 election. He knew that he would be judged to the standard of 'what would JFK have done?' in the public eye. Once he had blindly acceped the attack as truth and declared war, it wasn't long before the conflict spiraled out of his control. ""For all I know, they're shooting at whales"" Johnson said the next year about the war that was now out of his control.\n\nThe rhetoric leading upto Iraq was different. The intel was 'misread' by everyone in the aministration, so either everyone is lieing or everyone is that dumb. I think they were seeing what they wanted to see. As soon as any intel came accross that would give a glimmer of hope to uniting the country behind a war surfaced, they took it as fact because they wanted to. It suited their political end.\n\nI believe that this intel was also pressured out of the cia and nsa from the white house. Bush pushed so hard for 'actionable intel' that people eventually told him what he wanted to hear. This still continues as they try to quell the uprising. The president is so desperate for information on both insurgents and al-queida (sp?) that he is willing to turn his back on the rest of" +"In the early 20the century, Great Britain was considered a super powere in the world, what happen to them now?","Great Britain was powerful because of their navy. It enforced British imperialism throughout the world, and hence made Britain a superpower. Also, Britian had advanced textiles and technologies. Their air forces and military were very powerful, despite their population's size and geographical limits.\n\nGreat Britain lost almost all its colonies (and a hell of a lot of men) in and in the aftermath of WWII, and WWII also led to the military buildup of the United States Armed Forces, which meant the US Navy was now more powerful, thanks to American industry. Russia, too, recovered from its war slump and (using Lend-Lease weapons and vehicles) built a massive military and economy that allowed it to rival the US.\n\nPlus, nuclear weapons. We and the USSR had them, Britain didn't (not for a while) and that made us superpowers and them our allies. You will find military power often defines ""superpower"". That and economic power.

Inertia causes moving things to stay in motion and stopped things to oppose motion. Now if you have seen figure skating you might have noticed that the skater revolves slowly when her hands are outstretched but she starts to revolve very fast when she compacts her body by bringing her hand together.\n\nWell, on her outstretched hands moment of Inertia is more and therefore she is revolving slower but when she brings them together the moment of inertia is reduced. You can try it yourself on a revolving chair - if you don't know how to skate.\n\nIt is directly proportional to mass and distance from axis of rotation.

Evolution works like this: There are slight changes in the genetic information of the sex cells (i.e. eggs and sperm) of individuals that are passed on to the offspring of any two parents. These changes in the genetic makeup are called mutations. Mutations can either have: 1) A deleterious effect on the offspring (genetic disorders may arise, many times these are lethal); 2) sometimes these mutations may be advantageous, making an individual more fit than its neighbors (this is sometimes referred to as conferring an advantage); or 3) these mutations can have no effect, making no change from parent to progeny.\n\nIn the case of the chicken, it must have evolved from something else that became less fit than the chicken and eventually becoming extinct. The chicken became a chicken from this other organism through mutations that built up over time in subsequent generations. However, whatever the genetic makeup that finally became defined as a chicken, that individual was first conceived and developed in an egg before being hatched. The egg and sperm that fused to produce the chicken didn't bypass the period of gestation within an egg that had developed in the bird family millions of years before the chicken came along.\n\nSo the simple answer to this question is the egg came first -- unless you believe in fairy tales?\n\n\nTo Dr. Bob (below), what determines how an egg is labled: The organism that layed it, or the organism that's inside it?" +did Rumsfeld make money on bird flu hoax?,no- he does not have investments in the companies that manufacture the vaccinee. +How to burn 800 mb CD.

Reggaeton (also spelled with the Spanish accent as Reggaetón, and sometimes as Reguetón in Spanish) - blends Jamaican music influences of reggae and dancehall with those of Latin America, such as bomba and plena, as well as that of hip hop. The music is combined with rapping (generally) in Spanish. Reggaeton has empowered the Spanish Caribbean youth, specifically those of Puerto Rico and Dominican Republic, as well as the Latin American and United States Latino communities, with a musical genre as a voice. More recently it has become an international movement with the help of many from New York's Latino and Black hip hop community.\n\nWhile it takes influences from hip hop and dancehall, it would be wrong to define reggaeton as the 'Spanish'- or 'Latino'- version of either of these genres; reggaeton has its own specific beat and rhythm, whereas Latino hip hop is simply hip hop sung by artists of Latino descent. Reggaeton's distinguishing feature is the Dem Bow beat (alternately spelled Dembow), which originated in a song by Shabba Ranks in the mid-1990s.\n\nReggaeton lyrics tend to be more derived from hip hop than dancehall. Like hip hop, reggaeton has caused controversy due to its often explicit lyrics and alleged exploitation of women [1]. Further controversy surrounds perreo, a dance with explicit sexual overtones which typically accompanies reggaeton music" +how many different languages are there?,"I found this answer at the website below....I hope this helps....it certainly suprised me!\n\nLinguists estimate that there are anywhere from 4,000 to more than 10,000 distinct languages still spoken!

Cd+rw or DVD+RW?,"It really depends on how many pictures you are saving to the disc. Also it depends on if you are going to want to add pictures top the disc after. Check and see how much room your pictures are going to take up and if you have around 700mb or less of pictures then you should choose a CD, but if you have more than this you will either have to save them to m,ultiple CD's, or save them on a DVD. One question I have, why do you want to save them to a RW (re-writable) disc? If this is because you are planning on adding more pictures to it in the future, and if this is the case then you have to be careful when doing so as there is always the chance that you could either erase the disc and lose everything saved on it, or over-write the current contents of the disc, aghain losing everything on it. If it were my pictures then I personally would choose to save them on a standard CD-R (or DVD-R) as there is no way that they can be erased from this." +What is time?,"In physics time is the effect caused by Entropy.

And I would concede that he was a great wartime President.\n\nBut, being a conservative, I'm going to have to say that Reagan was the best. He changed the world by bankrupting European communism.

Although this is not an ideal outcome for a number of reasons, an agreed upon border between Israel and Palistine would make it easier for Israel to prevent Palistinian suicide-bombers from entering Israel while a soverign Palistine would protect the Palistinians from Israli army and missile attacks. The primary problem with this solution is the lack of any Palistinian government with both the will and ability to negotiate for such a solution. Most of the Palistinian actors who offically acknowledge the right of Israel to exist lack credibility among Palistinians while those who have such credibility refuse to negotiate in a meaninful way with Israel.

It was the first attempt to formalize the analysis of the effect of the money supply on the economy and spawned an entire field of economic theory called monetary theory. People had begun to realize that the Great Depression was caused in part by what we now refer to as ""tight monetary policy"" by the federal reserve. The basic idea was, if it is expensive to hold cash (i.e., if short-term interest rates are high, for example), then people will hold less cash. Less cash, less spending. Less spending, slower economy.\n\nTechnically, what we think of as the ""money supply"" (ie the total amount of cash and cash equivalents held by people and businesses) is really the intersection of the money supply curve and the money demand curve, just like everything else in economics. \n\nTobin and Baumol developed a mathematical model to describe the demand for money. Back in the 1950s, when savings accounts paid interest, checking accounts didnt pay interest, and you had to go to the bank to take money out or move it from savings to checking, they reasoned that people's desire to hold cash (i.e. the ""demand"" for money) would be based on (1) the amount of money you plan to spend (the more you spend, the more cash you carry, all else being equal); (2) short term interest rates (if short term interest rates are high, you'll tend to leave more money in the bank and carry less cash, all else being equal); and (3) what Tobin quaintly called ""shoe leather costs"" -- the pain in the neck factor of going to the bank to withdraw cash.\n\nIn other words, if interest rates are close to zero, then there's no real incentive to leave money in a savings account; everyone will just put it in a checking account (considered a ""cash equivalent"") or carry cash. If interest rates are high, people have an incentive to leave money in their savings account. But then they have to go to the bank whenever they want to spend it, which is a pain in the neck. Their conclusion was that people will optimize the amount of money they carry (or leave in their checking account) based on a rational balancing of the interest they'd earn vs. the amount they want to spend and how money times they want to go to the bank each month. \n\nThe ""elasticity of the demand for money"" (or just the elasticity of money) is Tobin and Baumol's measurement of how much each of these factors affects the overall demand for money. For example, \n- if interest rates double, then the demand for money will be half of what it otherwise would be. Higher interest rates = lower demand. The ""elasticity of money with respect to interest rates"" = the change in money supply caused by a change in interest rates.\n- if people spend more, then the demand for money will be higher. The elasticity of money with respect to GDP (total spending in the economy) = the change in the money supply caused by a change in GDP.\n- if the costs of going to the bank decrease, then people will carry less money and the demand for money will be lower. The elasticity of money with respect to ""shoe leather costs"" = the change in the money supply caused by a change in the cost of ""going to the bank"". Note that it might seem strange to think of the ""cost"" of going to the bank, but realize that since their original article was written, the ""cost of going to the bank"" has decreased radically. Credit cards, debit cards, interest-bearing checking accounts, online banking & ATM machines have made it virtually ""free"" to go to the bank -- nowadays, most people have their money in interest bearing checking accounts all the time, and can transfer money between savings, checking and cash with very little effort, and dont even use cash to pay for most purchases.

One example is the epinions.com web site and there are probably others now too.\n\nYou can go to your library, and see if the company has a Dunn & Bradstreet (D&B) entry. Go to reference section or microfilm/computer area of your local library to check this out. If you get stuck, ask a librarian or someone at the reference desk for help.\n\nIf you click on the order or the registration page, they should go into SSL mode. At that point, any decent browser will let you check the credentials of the site. Usually they call it the site certificate or something like that. Look for that. If they don't use SSL - hoo boy, do you really want to use their site even if they _are_ who they say they are?\n\nYou want to make sure the cert is good - not expired, and that it is signed by someone you trust, like Verisign. It's not an iron-clad garranty they are who they say they are, but it is something. At least they have claimed it, and the claim has probably not been revoked - not if the cert is still valid and signed by a good/respectable CA. I am presuming that if they scam a bunch of people and are using SSL, someone will gripe to Verisign or whomever.\n\nYou can minimize your risks, if you are unsure, by buying their merchandise from someone you already trust and do business with online. For instance, Amazon. They have been around for a decade and carry a huge variety of products.\n\nAlso, you can use payment intermediaries with some sites. Like, I just now notice that Apple's iTMS web site says at this moment that if you buy an iTunes gift certificate with PayPal, you get up to 25 Free Songs. PayPal is pretty popular. Lots though not most web sites accept payment via Paypal. In some ways, maybe most ways, it is more secure than your credit card. That is that the worst you can probably be out is the amount of the purchase. They don't ever actually get to see your credit card when you use PayPal, I think.\n\nIt is a somewhat unstrustworthy world out there.

So after much thought and reaserch, I have formulated the following religion-free theory.\n\nThere are many different views on this topic and most of them relate to religious perspectives.\nFrom a Christian standpoint the purpose of life would of course be to serve the lord and spread his word.\n\nThen there are the typical evolutionist \ntheories on how we are here to further the evolutionary chain and have man-kind evolve into whatever it is that humans are destined to become.\n\nThere are so many other views that I couldn't possibly go into them here but to just quickly name a few; buddhism, hinduism, muslim, hebrew, mormon, taoism, and the list goes on.\n\nMy theory on the purpose of life isn't so complex as many religions make it to be. To me, THE REAL MEANING AND PURPOSE OF LIFE, is just to be happy, believe in a higher being than yourself, and teach all of this to future generations...everything else is secondary. Like buddhists I think that being happy and having peace between all the different faiths is the key to all of us co-existing in harmony. I believe that being happy and not as a result of someone else's unhappiness is the easiest way to live a fulfilled life.\n\nBeing positive, spreading joy, having faith in humanity, and trusting in a higher being (whoever that might be based on your faith) is really the only way man-kind will ever survive. So sticking to these simple guidelines, I have managed to keep stress to a minimum and live a full, healthy, happy, and productive life.

You're company that you work for provides you this savings plan. The company selects who administrates the savings account (where you park your car) which investments you can have (which road you can drive your scooter on), and they can match your contributions (like mom & dad giving you gas money). If you want to get that money (selling your car), you need to work with the ""Fund Administrator"", and sometimes your ""Human Resources/Supervisors"" to get that money. Sometimes, you'll only get the money if you promise to pay it back. ( yep, mom & dad want you to be responsable )\n\n2. IRA is like a standard car. You can select who administrates the account (or where you park your car), what investment to buy (what roads to drive on). Unfortunantly, there is no one available to give you a match on your contribution (no gas money from mom & dad); but you can deduct your contribution from your taxes. You can also withdrawl the money at anytime (selling your car). . . BEWARE. . . there are financial concequences to this. . .research before you choose to withdrawl (its like sales tax from selling your car. . .if you sell at the wrong time, you'll get jipped on the sale proceeds).\n\n3. A Roth IRA is like a hybrid car. You get to pick who administers the account (parking the car) which investments (which roads to drive), but there is no matching and you can't deduct your yearly contributions from you taxes. Instead, you can get your money without tax conseques (selling your car) when you need it. . .BEWARE. . . to get your money without tax problems, there are still rules. Research before you withdrawl funds (sell that car). Providing you withdrawl (sell that car) under the guidlines, you don't have to pay sales tax on the withdrawl ( no sales tax from selling the car)." +Will beaming people up like on Star Trek ever be possible?,"The uncertainty principle only really applies to subatomic particles - atoms are too big to have any effect. Since we change all of our atoms frequently, replacing them by transportation wouldn't really matter. The important thing is capturing your entire pattern and reproducing it elsewhere.\n\nThis is where the problem lies:\n1) Its a huge amount of information to capture, transmit and reassemble in a sufficiently short amount of time (exabits a seconds)\n2) You would need some reassembly mechanism at the other end - transporting onto a new planet doesn't make sense\n\nSo - transportation from one device to another may be possibly eventually (given the acceleration of technology about 70 years), but transportation as in Star Trek - probably not." +If you like a girl how do you tell her nonverbally.?,"If she catches you looking, hold the gaze for a few seconds and smile at her." +how do you write the code for a sine wave in unix?,"It appears that the question period has expired.

Chicken or the egg?,"This is actually very easy to answer, based on evolution the egg had to come first. Evolution works like this: There are slight changes in the genetic information of the sex cells (i.e. eggs and sperm) of individuals that are passed on to the offspring of any two parents. These changes in the genetic makeup are called mutations. Mutations can either have: 1) A deleterious effect on the offspring (genetic disorders may arise, many times these are lethal); 2) sometimes these mutations may be advantageous, making an individual more fit than its neighbors (this is sometimes referred to as conferring an advantage); or 3) these mutations can have no effect, making no change from parent to progeny.\n\nIn the case of the chicken, it must have evolved from something else that became less fit than the chicken and eventually becoming extinct. The chicken became a chicken from this other organism through mutations that built up over time in subsequent generations. However, whatever the genetic makeup that finally became defined as a chicken, that individual was first conceived and developed in an egg before being hatched. The egg and sperm that fused to produce the chicken didn't bypass the period of gestation within an egg that had developed in the bird family millions of years before the chicken came along.\n\nSo the simple answer to this question is the egg came first -- unless you believe in fairy tales?" +How can one get a U.S. visa cancelled for someone who has such a visa but shouldn't?,"Immigration enforcement is now handled by the Office of Immigration and Customs Enforcement, a branch of the Department of Homeland Security.

Keep selecting answers!" +Why is the 1915 Armenian Genocide denied?,"Even though the genocide is carried out and executed by the officially rejected ""İttihat ve Terakki Party"" under the command of Enver Pasha and Talat Pasha, the new Turkish Republic is founded by Mustafa Kemal who first condemned the act and vowed to punish the perpetrators, then suppressed it altogether for reasons of internal security and sovereignity (also a great deal of İttihat ve Terakki Party members were present in the new parliement even after it was abolished.)\n\nThis made it impossible for the official history to accept the event. Even after Mustafa Kemal died and left the political scene, his ghost lingered on. So the Turkish Denial Machine put in use, inventing a civil war in an area where the civil majority was the Armenians, and they were driven away by the government itself who is supposed to be governing them and their interests.\n\nThis of course, owes to the fact that the new republic built in Turkey was one of the nationalist origin and denied any other nations outside that frame of thought. Already scarred by current and recent Nationalist movements within the land the new government and its followers were afraid of further dissent within the land Armenian genocide was left to be secretly remembered as a warning to all the other nations within the borders of Turkey as an example of what could be done and forgotten if need be. \n\nArmenian Genocide of course is proven with explicit internal memos (which are contested as fake by extreme right wing ideologues without any reasonable counter proof) and above all memoirs of the victims who managed to survive.\n\nBut according to denial machine of course the so called survivors were just lying because they lost their land.\n\nRegardless of the intent Armenian people are -still- entitled to their land they were forcefully banished from, because the civil population is driven out by the military forces which was supposed to defend them as well. And even if the Armenian Insurgency killed muslims and Turks in the region it does not prove that the perished civil population (women, elderly and children) was all hundred percent behind the atrocities committed by them.\n\nSo genocide or not the outcome is inevitable, but somehow that is rarely ever mentioned by the denial engine's moutpieces. They are way too happy with the whodunnit part than doing anything alleviate the problem caused." +dell or apple?,"I used to work for Dell, and in my honest opinion, Dell would be the better way to go.

Then there were countless TV commercials telling us that Muslims were not bad people and that these acts were committed by a handful of radical maniacs, thereby bringing Muslims to our attention.

I think the concensus of most Christians is that ""turn the other cheek"" is not binding in all situations.\n\nIf you're talking about self-defense in a military context, the issues are more complex. In the writings of the early Christians, for the first 300 years, military service was uniformly condemned:\n\n“We who formerly murdered one another now refrain from making war even upon our enemies.” Justin Martyr\n\n“I decline military command.” Tatian\n\n“We are not to draw an outline of … a sword or a bow, since we follow peace.” Clement of Alexandria\n\n“The Christian does no harm even to his enemy.” Tertullian\n\n“Is it lawful to make an occupation of the sword when the Lord proclaims that he who uses the sword will perish by the sword? Will the son of peace take part in the battle when it does not become him even to sue at law?” Tertullian\n\n“So the more anyone excels in godliness, the more effective the help is that he renders to kings. This is a greater help than what is given by soldiers who go forth to fight and kill as many of the enemy as they can.” Origen\n\n“Our prayers defeat all demons who stir up war. . . Accordingly, in this way, we are much more helpful to the kings than those who go into the field to fight for them.” Origen\n\n“And murder – which is admitted to be a crime in the case of an individual – is called a virtue when it is committed wholesale. Impunity is claimed for the wicked deeds, not because they are guiltless– but because the cruelty is perpetrated on a grand scale!” Cyprian\n\n“Why would [the just man] carry on war and mix himself with the passions of others when his mind is engaged in perpetual peace with men?” Lactantius\n\n“Is the [military] laurel of triumph made of leaves, or of corpses? Is it adorned with ribbons, or with tombs? Is it wet with ointments, or with the tears of wives and mothers? It may be made of some [dead] Christians too. For Christ is also believed among the barbarians. Tertullian\n\nAfter the time of Constantine the idea of military service becomes more acceptable. Today, among American evangelicals and fundamentalists, support for war is virtually universal. In fact, evangelicals support the war in Iraq by a larger percentage than that of the population as a whole.\n\nBut support for war is not universal among Christians. For example, the web site of the Orthodox Church in America notes that ""when violence must be used as a lesser evil to prevent greater evils, it can never be blessed as such, it must always be repented of, and it must never be identified with perfect Christian morality.""" +How does a nebula of gas and space dust end up forming a star: What is the chemical mechanism?,I don't know. +"When using movie files what does .mp4 stand for, or what type of file is it?",I don't know. +how can i get outside iraq but i have no enough money and i'm a doctor ?,Be on medical mission!\n\nVolunteer +Bouncing ball question?,"The ball would bounce higher if the container kept a vacuum in it the entire time. The first thing to understand is that there will not be pressure on top of the ball, there will be pretty much equal pressure around the ball from all sides; the air will spread evenly throught the container very rapidly.\n\nThis air will create drag, which will slow the descent of the ball and reduce the kinetic energy and momentum of the ball. Drag and friction are called non-conservative forces, because when kinteic energy is lost to them, it is not transferred to another object, rather it is gone and not retrievable. (It actually does get transferred, because no energy can truly be destroyed, but it is not retrieable.)\n\nSo what we have so far is a ball that is falling through dense air (greater pressure of a gas means a greater density of the gas), which is putting drag on the ball. This means the ball does not fall as fast as it would in a vacuum, and the faster a rubber ball falls. We then suck all the air out instantly, and the ball will bounce back up unrestricted by drag on its way up, but it would have bounced higher if it was not slwoed down by air during its fall and had a higher impact speed." +Where may I find animation of String Theory?,http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/elegant/program.html\nthis is pbs and they produced a show of Brian Green's book the eligant universe. very good I am watching it now. +is this generation struggling with more stressors than previous generations?,"I think so.

Later, Robert Simpson, then director of the National Hurricane Center, modified Saffir's work, adding measurements for flooding and storm surge.\n\nThe result was the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Rating scale.\n\nA Category 1 storm begins at 74 mph and a Category 5 at 156 mph. On average, there is about a 20 mph increment in wind speed between the categories.\n\nAn extrapolation suggests that if a Category 6 were there, it would be in the range of 176-196 mph. Hurricane Wilma, which had maximum recorded wind speeds of 175 mph, would have been on the verge of breaking into this hypothetical new category.\n\nThe scale didn't include a Category 6 for two reasons.\n\nFirst, it was designed to measure the amount of damage inflicted by a hurricane's winds, and beyond 156 mph, the damage begins to look about the same, according to Simpson.\n\n""When you get up into winds in excess of 155 mph you have enough damage,"" Simpson said in a 1999 interview with the National Weather Log, a publication of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.\n\n""If that extreme wind sustains itself for as much as six seconds on a building it's going to cause rupturing damages that are serious no matter how well it's engineered. So I think that it's immaterial what will happen with winds stronger than 156 miles per hour. That's the reason why we didn't try to go any higher than that,"" Simpson said.\n\nAnother reason is that Category 5 hurricanes are relatively rare, or at least they used to be.\n\n""In general, I didn't expect that there would be too many hurricanes that went [above] 155 miles per hour for sustained winds,"" Saffir said. ""The limit seems to be about 175 miles per hour and I don't know of anything that goes much over that.""\n\nSome scientists predict, however, that the intensity of hurricanes and their maximum wind speeds may be increasing and that Category 4 and 5 storms will become more common in the years to come.\n\nBehind the beast\n\nOcean and atmospheric temperatures work together to determine the maximum wind speed attainable. This value is known as the ""maximum potential hurricane intensity"" and is calculated using a formula developed in 1998 by Emanuel, the MIT climatologist.\n\nBased on ocean and atmospheric conditions on Earth nowadays, the estimated maximum potential for hurricanes is about 190 mph.\n\nThis upper limit is not absolute, however. It can change as a result of changes in climate. Scientists predict that as global warming continues, the maximum potential hurricane intensity will go up. They disagree, however, on what the increase will be.\n\nEmanuel and other scientists have predicted that wind speeds—including maximum wind speeds—should increase about 5 percent for every 1 degree Celsius increase in tropical ocean temperatures.\n\nChris Landsea, a meteorologist at the National Hurricane Center, disagrees.\n\nLandsea believes that even in the worst-case global warming scenarios, where global temperatures ratchet up by an additional 1-6 degrees Celsius, there would be about a 5 percent change, total, by the end of the 21st Century. That means that hurricane-force winds are unlikely to exceed 200 mph, Landsea said.\n\nThe fastest ""regular"" wind that's widely agreed upon was 231 mph, recorded at Mount Washington, New Hampshire, on April 12, 1934.

Their conclusions can be read one of two ways:\n\n1) The entire body of prior research is so thoroughly horribly flawed that it is useless. This is a statement that there are so few quality research papers that no conclusions can be drawn. There have certainly been many studies performed, though their results do differ from study to study. Whether they differ because of methodology, sample, or design is something researchers should be able to sort out as long as some research is of high quality. The panel does not mention any particular criteria or studies as being better.\n\n2) There is neither consistent nor convincing credible evidence that gun control laws reduce crime rates.\n\nIt is possibly of interest that all but one of the members of the panel is known to favor additional restrictions on possession and ownership of firearms.\n\nGiven the panels composition, and that it excluded the foremost researcher on this issue, (Dr. Gary Kleck, whose books should be available in your local library), I am inclined to believe the latter (particularly after having read several of his books).\n\n""...Consequently, when medical journal authors report that there is little evidence on a given topic, it may often really mean only that they made no serious effort to find any or chose not to report what they found. For example, in an article published in 1996 in the Journal of the American Medical Association, Douglas Weil (research director of the Center to Prevent Handgun Violence, affiliated with Handgun Control) and a colleague claimed that ""there is little published research on the effectiveness of gun laws"" (Weil and Knox 1996:60). In fact, there were, at the time this article was published, at least forty-five empirical studies of the impact of gun laws on violent crime, suicide, and gun accidents (Tables 8.4 and 11.1). Weil then proceeded to inaccurately claim that ""with little dissent, these studies are generally supportive of the thesis that well-tailored gun laws can have a beneficial impact"" (ibid.:60), when in fact the studies have generally indicated that gun laws, whether ""well-tailored"" or not, have no measurable impact on violence rates (Chapter 11; Point Blank;Chapter 10)...."" Page 42, Gary Kleck, Targeting Guns, (Aldine de Gruyter, NY, 1997)\n\nI think the strictest possible Federal gun control is already on the books. But that law remains unenforced. That law is the Second Amendment. The Federal and State governments have studiously ignored it and the courts have been derelict in resolving the issue." +"For those of you in less than sunny weather, how do you beat the winter blues?","Have a Winter Sport.

Is it the reflection of the world's oceans ?,"First of all, we need to remember that sunlight contains all the colors of the rainbow (after all, sunlight can be used to make rainbows!) Now, as sunlight travels through the atmosphere, it bumps into things. If it bumps into something big (like a bird, a plane, or Superman), it stops creating a shadow on the other side of the object. But if it bumps into something small, like water vapor or other molecules of gas, it gets sent into a slightly different direction than before (physicists would say that it ""scattered"") This scattering, however, is not the same for all colors; light at the blueish end gets scattered more than light at the redish end. So imagine a ray of light hitting the atmosphere at an angle. As it passes through, the various gases make the blue light spread out (some of it toward the earth and folks watching the sky) while the red light hardly gets scattered at all and zips by the planet. That's also why the sky on the moon is black even during the daytime. The moon has no atmosphere so nothing can bend some of the light (of any color) back to the surface." +Give me some examples of the MURPHY'S LAW .

Though his works are sometimes considered challenging or even opaque, he is regarded as one of America's most influential fiction writers.\n\nFaulkner was known for using long, serpentine sentences and meticulously chosen diction, in stark contrast to the minimalist style of his longtime rival, Ernest Hemingway. Some consider Faulkner to be the only true American Modernist prose fiction writer of the 1930s, following in the experimental tradition of European writers such as James Joyce, Virginia Woolf, and Marcel Proust. His work is known for literary devices like stream of consciousness, multiple narrations or points of view, and narrative time shifts.\n\nLife\nFaulkner was born William Falkner (without ""u"") in New Albany, Mississippi, and raised in and heavily influenced by that state, as well as by the ambience of the South. His great-grandfather, William Clark Falkner, was an important figure in the history of northern Mississippi who served as a colonel in the Confederate Army, founded a railroad, and gave his name to the town of Falkner in nearby Tippah County. Perhaps most importantly, he wrote several novels and other works, establishing a literary tradition in the family. Eventually, Colonel Falkner became the model for Colonel John Sartoris in his great-grandson's writing.\n\nIt is understandable that the younger Falkner was influenced by, and drew on, the history of his family and the region in which they lived. Mississippi marked his sense of humor, his sense of the tragic position of blacks and whites, his keen characterization of usual Southern characters and his timeless themes, one of them being that fiercely intelligent people dwelled behind the façades of good old boys and simpletons. The definite reason for Faulkner's change in the spelling of his last name is still unknown, but possibilities include adding it 1) to appear more British when entering the Royal Air Force, 2) so his name would come across as more aristocratic, or 3) keeping a misspelling an early editor had made.\n\nAlthough Faulkner is heavily identified with Mississippi, he was living in New Orleans in 1925 when he wrote his first novel, Soldiers' Pay. The small house at 624 Pirate's Alley, just around the corner from St. Louis Cathedral, is now the premises of Faulkner House Books, and also serves as the headquarters of the Pirate's Alley Faulkner Society.\n\nFaulkner's most celebrated novels include The Sound and the Fury (1929), As I Lay Dying (1930), Light in August (1932), The Unvanquished (1938), and Absalom, Absalom! (1936). Faulkner was a prolific writer of short stories: his first short story collection, These 13 (1932), includes many of his most acclaimed (and most frequently anthologized) stories, including ""A Rose for Emily,"" ""Barn Burning,"" ""Red Leaves,"" ""That Evening Sun,"" and ""Dry September."" In 1931 in an effort to make money, Faulkner crafted Sanctuary, a sensationalist ""pulp fiction""-styled novel. Its themes of evil and corruption (bearing Southern Gothic tones) resonate to this day. A sequel to the book, Requiem for a Nun, is the only play that he published. It includes an introduction that is actually one sentence spanning more than a page. He received a Pulitzer Prize for A Fable, and won National Book Awards for his Collected Stories (1951) and A Fable (1955).\n\nFaulkner was also an acclaimed writer of mysteries, publishing a collection of crime fiction, Knight's Gambit, that featured Gavin Stevens (who also appeared in Light in August, Go Down, Moses, The Town, Intruder in the Dust, and the short story Hog Pawn), an attorney, wise to the ways of folk living in Yoknapatawpha County.

Because of that, the air temprature above you, where the snoe will form is quite a bit colder. Once snow starts to form within the weather system, the ground temprature will begin to drop from 36 Degrees to around 30-28 degrees for a short period of time. From 22-28 degrees snow falls best.

For that reason countries often attempt to rescue victims or negotiate with parties that may have influence with the criminals. However, giving into demands would validate the effectiveness of taking hostages resulting in far more victims and deaths. Even paying ransom would provide terrorists with cash that they would use to harm more people. The best solution is to be sure that any hostage deaths result in strong negative feedback against the terrorists, especially among populations that nominally support their activities. Killing innocent people is taking away a gift of God and will be punished in eternity if not on Earth." +Something about lack of a feudal tradition in the United States?,"In short, feudalism has sovereignty based in a single individual, such as a king. There is levels of society below that individual with each having responsibility ultimately to the king. In such a system, individual freedoms don’t exist as we understand them today. Our system is founded on the concept that sovereignty is based on the individual, and as such governmental entities receive their ratification from those individuals. In this you might read Hobbs (as representing the single sovereign, and Locke representing individual sovereignty. \n\nI believe that it would help to understand what feudalism is before your question has relevance. \n\n1.A political and economic system of Europe from the 9th to about the 15th century, based on the holding of all land in fief or fee and the resulting relation of lord to vassal and characterized by homage, legal and military service of tenants, and forfeiture. \n2.A political, economic, or social order resembling this medieval system. \nfeudalism (fyoo͞′ dəlĭzəm), form of political and social organization typical of Western Europe from the dissolution of Charlemagne's empire to the rise of the absolute monarchies. The term feudalism is derived from the Latin feodum, for fief, and ultimately from a Germanic word meaning cow, generalized to denote valuable movable property. Although analogous social systems have appeared in other civilizations, the feudalism of Europe in the Middle Ages remains the common model of feudal society.Characteristics of European Feudalism \nThe evolution of highly diverse forms, customs, and institutions makes it almost impossible to accurately depict feudalism as a whole, but certain components of the system may be regarded as characteristic: strict division into social classes, i.e., nobility, clergy, peasantry, and, in the later Middle Ages, burgesses; private jurisdiction based on local custom; and the landholding system dependent upon the fief or fee. Feudalism was based on contracts made among nobles, and although it was intricately connected with the manorial system, it must be considered as distinct from it. Although some men held their land in alod, without obligation to any person, they were exceptions to the rule in the Middle Ages.\nIn an ideal feudal society (a legal fiction, most nearly realized in the Crusaders' Latin Kingdom of Jerusalem), the ownership of all land was vested in the king. Beneath him was a hierarchy of nobles, the most important nobles holding land directly from the king, and the lesser from them, down to the seigneur who held a single manor. The political economy of the system was local and agricultural, and at its base was the manorial system. Under the manorial system the peasants, laborers, or serfs, held the land they worked from the seigneur, who granted them use of the land and his protection in return for personal services (especially on the demesne, the land he retained for his own use) and for dues (especially payment in kind).\nThe Fief \nThe feudal method of holding land was by fief; the grantor of the fief was the suzerain, or overlord, and the recipient was the vassal. The fief was formally acquired following the ceremony of homage, in which the vassal, kneeling before the overlord, put his hands in those of the lord and declared himself his man, and the overlord bound himself by kissing the vassal and raising him to his feet. The vassal then swore an oath of fealty, vowing to be faithful to the overlord and to perform the acts and services due him. This formal procedure served to cement the personal relationship between lord and vassal; after the ceremony the lord invested the vassal with the fief, usually by giving him some symbol of the transferred land. Honors or rights, as well as land, could be granted as fiefs. Gradually the system of subinfeudation evolved, by which the vassal might in his turn become an overlord, granting part of his fief to one who then became vassal to him.

Now, the CEO's of the HMO's are raking it in, healthcare costs have skyrocketed instead of going down as promised, while the docs are still paying through the nose for their non-free, extremely expensive education and their exorbitant malpractice fees (which the CEO's don't have to pay because they are not allowed to be sued)..." +In Greece what is also celebrated on New Year's Day ?,"Greeks celebrate New Year's day the same way as most nations in the Western World.\n\nIn addition, the 1st of January it is the day of St. Vasilios -- therefore all people with the name of Vasilis or Vasilia celebrate their nameday (which in Greece is almost as important as their birthday)." +I'm looking for a free internet site to post my room for rent one that gets the most hits i'm in Toledo,Here's the direct link to craigslist in Toledo.

But we'll cuss and blow a fuse when someone cuts us off on the freeway, with our children in the back seat, watching and hearing...learning how to deal. But, if someone comes up to you and asks your forgiveness for doing something to you and you forgive them, your child will learn that this is acceptable behavior and understand that both people win when there's forgiveness extended. When you yell at your kid and call him a dummy, he learns to see himself as someone less than acceptable and believes that he's not smart enough to even try. The poem goes on to list the good and the bad about how children learn from those who are around them. And it's not always the parents that they're learning from. But, the parents ARE the main influence in a childs' life and have a huge impact on how they see themselves and the world around them.

The principles of AJAX lend themselves well to segmenting applications, potentially reducing server demand, and improving performance.\n\nSince most of the business rules are executed on the server anyway there's not a whole ton of ""risk"" - their ""core"" code is protected on the server. If done right, the client-side code simply deals with delivering/presenting client content.\n\nThe tradeoffs are well worth the perceived ""risks"" in areas like content management, release coordination, availablility, scalability, etc., since they gain the advantage of a well-performing web-based client with a service-oriented back-end." +how to get run 8km in 28min?,"I have never heard of taking 10 days off before a race.

You shouldn't have to devote large amounts of time to deal specifically with blind users. \n\nI have a problem with this question for a number of reasons. \n\n1. The question assumes a simplistic view of blindness - if blind people cannot see paintings, photos or sculptures, they will not need to come to the website. \n\nWhat about a blind user who wants to find out some information on a local artist, and goes to the local art gallery website to read the artist biography? \n\nMany art galleries are also used for parties and functions. What if a blind user wants to look up an art gallery website to find opening times, location and function details? \n\nIn both cases, an inaccessible site will lead to a frustrating experience. \n\n2. The question takes a very narrow view of art - that it is purely visual - which is not the case. Art galleries could host experimental sound exhibitions, tactile experiences or sculptures exhibits that are deliberately designed to be explored through other senses. \n\nFor example the Royal Blind Society runs an annual art exhibition titled 'Tactile Art' with the Object Gallery that encourages visitors to get 'hands on' and experience contemporary works of art through their sense of touch. \n\n\n2004 Tactile Art winner Simon Lloyd, with his suspended artwork 'Fabricating the Mundane' and the judges Adam Spencer (Comedian and Broadcaster, Triple J), James Pittar (former Tactile Art judge and marathon swimmer who is blind), Belinda Thorley (pottery and ceramic artist who is blind), Claire Armstrong (Editor, Art and Australia) and Brian Parkes (Associate Director of Object Galleries). \n\n3. Making sites accessible can often benefit a wide range of users. \n\nIf an art gallery site has artworks that are labelled with clear, informative descriptions, then many users could benefit. If nothing else, these descriptions could be indexed by Google, and could help other people who are searching for artworks online. \n\nIf longdesc (or more widely supported equivalents) were used, artworks could be enriched with detailed descriptions of the artworks as well as history of the artworks, the techniques used, the artists frame of mind at the time of production etc. Again, this could be beneficial to a wide range of users. \n\nIf artworks had clear descriptions, another group of users who would benefit are those on slow connections who browse with turn off images. Clear descriptions would allow them to travel quickly through the site until they came to the artworks they wanted to view. \n\nSo, to answer your question: yes, I believe you should make an art gallery website accessible to blind users. Why? Because blind users may want to visit the site, and even if they don't, the accessibility features may aid other users." +When did Elvis die?,"He didn't die, I saw him at Pepe's Mexican Restaurant." +Which Detroit Red Wing players are single?,"The Detroit Red Wings site has personal information for each player's biography, and some of them have the player's marital status.

You should probably stop reading right here and see a doctor, but since you probably want to know more before visting a doctor I have given an explanation of this phenomenon.\n\nIbuprofen and other NSAIDs are cox enzyme inhibitors. Nonselective NSAIDs (Ibuprofen, Aspirin, Naproxen) inhibt both cox 1 and cox 2, while cox-2 specifc NSAIDs (Celebrex) inhibit only cox 2. Cox 2 enzymes make prostaglandins, which is a class of compounds that do many things in many different places, including an involvement in the body's inflammatory repsonse mechanism. Prostaglandins also have a function of reducing intraocular pressure in the eye. \n\nIn one study of the cox 2 inhibitor Celebrex, intraocular pressure increased slightly, but not signifcantly enough for concern. NSIADs seem not to display this effect, at least not as strongly generally, but medications can have rare side effects in a small group of people. \n\nI do not know how substantial this effect is, but your eyes are sensitive and very valuable organs.

However, some features of a 64-bit processor (code wording execution, memory addressing) cannot be achieved even if you combine one thousand 32-bit processors together.

When homeschooling in the states, they follow the rules of where they live vs where thier home is. \n\nFor families stationed overseas, they report to the local military community commander. So I am led to believe that you might need to report to the local American Authority like the American Consolate in Brazil.\n\nI did manage to find one site that said: The rules of homeschooling overseas in a civilian capacity (including missionaries, corporations, and other positions) are governed by the country in which you reside.\n\nAnother popular site says: ""My general advice is to contact the embassy of the country where you'll be, and ask about their compulsory education code and the exemptions to it. Do they allow for private schools or tutors? How does one qualify as a private school or tutor? Could you apply? If not, ask if your children can homeschool through a distance learning program, as enrollees in a distant private school.""\n \nTo avoid that kind of hassle I would consider enrolling your child in a correspondence school so that your child is technically being educated by a US institution... at least while overseas.

Have you asked for a formal explanation of the reasons behind the termination? The employer may be willing to give them to you without the compulsion of the law. Also, statute 95-242 (linked below) explains the procedure by which you may file a complaint with the Commissioner of Labor to investigate on your behalf. That threat alone may make your employer willing to provide the information to you, simply so he does not have to answer to the Commissioner for such information.\n\nRegardless, winning a termination dispute can be very difficult.

Take it to all your local bars and coffeehouses that accept bands.

The name Shah Jahan comes from Persian شاه‌جهان meaning ""The Ruler of the World"". Shah Jahan is best known as the builder of the Taj Mahal, a shrine to his Persian second wife, Arjumand Bano Begum, popularly known as Mumtaz Mahal (""Ornament of the Palace"") whom he married on May 10, 1612, at the age of 20.\nContents\n\n * 1 Rise to power\n * 2 Accomplishments\n * 3 Decline and fall\n * 4 Legacy\n * 5 Literary sources\n * 6 Notable structures associated with Shah Jahan\n * 7 External links\n\n[edit]\n\nRise to power\n\nShah Jahan was born with the name Prince Khurram to Jahangir and the Hindu Rajput Princess Manmati, and was reportedly close to his grandfather Akbar as a child. Khurram raised an army against Jahangir in 1622, but the insurgency failed. He was forgiven and accepted back into the fold but two of his sons, Prince Aurangzeb and Dara Shikoh, were sent to Jahangir's court against the possibility of Prince Khurram revolting again.\n\nAfter Jahangir's death in 1627, Khurram captured power after a fratricidal war against his weaker brother, Shahryar, who was supported by Jahangir's powerful widow Nur Jehan with the help of Abdul Hassan Asaf Khan . It was shortly after this that he took the rule name Shah Jahan, February 4, 1628.\n[edit]\n\nAccomplishments\n\nAlthough his father's rule was generally peaceful, the empire was experiencing challenges by the end of his reign. Shah Jahan reversed this trend by putting down a Muslim rebellion in Ahmednagar, repulsing the Portuguese in the Bengal, capturing the Rajput kingdoms of Baglana and Bundelkhand to the west, and the kingdoms of Bijapur and Golconda in the Deccan and the northwest beyond the Khyber Pass. Shah Jahan's military campaigns drained the imperial treasury. Under his rule, the state became a huge military machine and the nobles and their contingents multiplied almost fourfold, so did the demands for more revenue from the peasantry. However, his political efforts encouraged the emergence of large centers of commerce and crafts--such as Lahore, Delhi, Agra, and Ahmadabad--linked by roads and waterways to distant places and ports. He moved the capital from Agra to Delhi, the traditional seat of Muslim power.\n\nUnder Shah Jahan's rule, Mughal artistic and architectural achievements reached their zenith. Shah Jahan was a prolific builder with a highly refined aesthetic. He built the legendary Taj Mahal in Agra as a tomb for his beloved wife, Mumtaz Mahal. Among his surviving buildings are the Red Fort and Jamia Masjid in Delhi, the Shalimar Gardens of Lahore and buildings at the Lahore Fort.\n\nAlthough the empire's financial expenditures were excessive when resources were shrinking, by the end of Shah Jahan's reign, the empire was again expanding.\n\nLegend has it that Shah Jahan wanted to build a black Taj Mahal, to match the white one[1]. There is no reputable scholarship to support this hypothesis, however.[2][3][4].\n[edit]\n\nDecline and fall\n\nWhen Shah Jahan fell severely ill beginning in 1657, the struggle to succeed him began. His second son, Shah Shuja declared himself emperor in Bengal. Aurangzeb also challenged his father and the expected successor, Dara Shikoh, Aurangzeb's elder brother.

The time to reach the stage of ejaculation is subjective and varies form one man to another. Some men may ejaculate immediately after copulation begins while another may not ejaculate even after 10 minutes. Thus, time is not a criterion for ascertaining whether the ejaculation is premature or not; mutual satisfaction is the benchmark against which this condition is measured.\n\nWhat is the cause?\n\nPremature ejaculation primarily has a physiological basis. Biologically, men have an orgasm approximately 2-3 minutes after penetrating the vagina. Women, on the other hand, typically take more time to reach the climax. Since in most cases, the partners may not climax together, they are not satisfied and the ejaculation is termed premature. \n\nHowever, premature ejaculation may be caused by a variety of psychological and social reasons. It is seen that it occurs frequently when the man is under mental stress or anxiety. Anxiety may be due to the fear of non-performance, the fear of being discovered (as during premarital or extramarital sex in our society) or anxiety related to contraction of sexually transmitted diseases or an unwanted pregnancy.\n\nThough men of all ages may experience the condition, it is more common in adolescents, young adults and inexperienced men. However, it is also true that almost all men experience it at some point in their lives. Premature ejaculation is one of the most common sexual problems for which couples seek advice. The result of treatment is often successful.\n\nWhat are the symptoms?\n\n\nSince premature ejaculation is not a disease, it does not have the classic ""symptoms"". An individual realizes that he is suffering from it when sexual intercourse ends before either partner is completely satisfied. It is diagnosed by a physical examination, in addition to interviews with the couple regarding their relationship.\n\nWhat is the treatment?\n\nIn some cases, the problem can be solved simply by educating an individual about the condition and reassuring him. Counselling is provided by psychologists that helps a man to deal with his fears and anxieties and, thus, eliminate the psychological causes of the condition. The following techniques may be beneficial in delaying ejaculation:\n\n 1. The ""stop and start"" method – in this method, the man learns to recognise the stage after which he cannot control ejaculation. The treatment method trains the person to remove the stimulus just before that stage is reached so that the urge to ejaculate is controlled. For example, when during masturbation, the man reaches a point just before ejaculating, he stops the stimulus until he starts losing the erection. Once the stage is past, he can resume the activity. This process is repeated again and again until the individual is able to delay ejaculation till the time he wishes. This method called the 'Masters and Johnson method', is most effective when the help of the partner is sought during actual intercourse.\n 2. The squeeze technique – in this method, the partner gently squeezes the tip or base of the penis just before the point of ejaculation thereby ""cancelling"" the orgasm. This process can be continued until the couple decides mutually to reach the climax.\n 3. Desensitising creams and gels are available in the market that reduce the sensitivity of the penis and help men reach climax later. Some men also feel that condoms reduce the sensations and, in addition to providing safer sex, help them last longer.\n 4. The couple can also experiment with sexual positions as some positions offer more control than others and may help to delay ejaculation." +Who is goin to answer my question?,She can. +Cable Or Direct Tv??,cable thank you very mcuh.. +What is the space time continuom any way and why are they always worried about breaking it?,Its when you go back in time and if you stay still....more of you will come back from the future.

Some patients are unable or unwilling to pursue integration. For them, treatment aims to facilitate cooperation and collaboration among the personalities and to reduce symptoms. This treatment is often arduous and painful, and many crises tend to arise as a result of the personalities' actions and the patient's despair when dealing with traumatic memories. One or more periods of psychiatric hospitalization may be necessary to help some patients through difficult times and during the processing of particularly painful memories. Hypnosis is often used to help access the personalities, facilitate communication between them, and stabilize and interpret them. Hypnosis is also used to discuss traumatic memories and diffuse their impact. Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), applied cautiously, is a useful adjunct. EMDR tries to process traumatic memories and to replace negative thoughts about self that are associated with these memories with positive ones.\n\nGenerally, two or more psychotherapy sessions per week for 3 to >= 6 years are necessary to integrate the personalities or to achieve harmonious interaction among them that allows normal functioning without symptoms. Integration of the personalities is the most desirable outcome.\n\nPsychotherapy has three main phases. In the first phase, the priority is safety, stabilization, and strengthening of the patient in anticipation of the difficult work of processing traumatic material and dealing with problematic personalities. The personality system is explored and mapped to plan the remainder of the treatment. In the second phase, the patient is helped to process the painful episodes of his past and to mourn the losses and other negative consequences of the trauma. As the reasons for the patient's remaining dissociations are addressed, therapy can move to the final phase, in which the patient's selves and relationships and social functioning can be reconnected, integrated, and rehabilitated. Some integration occurs spontaneously, but much must be encouraged by conversing with and arranging the unification of the personalities or must be facilitated with imagery and hypnotic suggestion. After integration, patients continue treatment to deal with some issues that have not been resolved. After postintegration treatment appears complete, visits to the therapist are tapered but are rarely completely terminated. Patients come to think of the psychiatrist as someone who can help them deal with psychologic issues, just as they periodically need assistance from a primary care physician.""" +can anyone please tell me what it is called when something 'is because it is because it is?,"Tautological?.

The Gain of an antenna with losses is given by:\n\n\n\n2. Gain of rectangular X-Band Aperture\n\n G = 1.4 LW Where: L = length of aperture in cm\nW = width of aperture in cm \n\n\n3. Gain of Circular X-Band Aperture\n\n\n\n4. Gain of an isotropic antenna radiating in a uniform spherical pattern is one (0 dB).\n\n5. Antenna with a 20 degree beamwidth has a 20 dB gain.\n\n6. 3 dB beamwidth is approximately equal to the angle from the peak of the power to the first null (see figure at right).\n\n \n\n7. Parabolic Antenna Beamwidth:\n\n\n\n\n\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\n\nANTENNA BASICS\nThe antenna equations which follow relate to Figure 1 as a typical antenna. In Figure 1, BW is the azimuth beamwidth and BW is the elevation beamwidth. Beamwidth is normally measured at the half-power or -3 dB point unless otherwise specified. See Glossary. The gain or directivity of an antenna is the ratio of the radiation intensity in a given direction to the radiation intensity averaged over all directions.\n\n \n\nQuite often directivity and gain are used interchangeably. The difference is that directivity neglects antenna losses such as dielectric, resistance, polarization, and VSWR losses. Since these losses in most classes of antennas are usually quite small, the directivity and gain will be approximately equal (disregarding unwanted pattern characteristics).\n\nNormalizing a radiation pattern by the integrated total power yields the directivity of the antenna. This concept in shown in equation form by:\n\n\n\n\n\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\n\nAnother important concept is that when the angle in which the radiation is constrained is reduced, the directive gain goes up. For example, using an isotropic radiating source, the gain would be 0 dB by definition (Figure 2(a)) and the power density (Pd) at any given point would be the power in (Pin) divided by the surface area of the imaginary sphere at a distance R from the source. If the spacial angle was decreased to one hemisphere (Figure 2(b)), the power radiated, Pin, would be the same but the area would be half as much, so the gain would double to 3 dB. Likewise if the angle is a quarter sphere, (Figure 2(c)), the gain would be 6 dB. Figure 2(d) shows a pencil beam. The gain is independent of actual power output and radius (distance) at which measurements are taken.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\n\n\nReal antennas are different, however, and do not have an ideal radiation distribution. Energy varies with angular displacement and losses occur due to sidelobes.\n\nHowever, if we can measure the pattern, and determine the beamwidth we can use two (or more) ideal antenna models to approximate a real antenna pattern as shown in Figure 3.\n\n\n \n\nAssuming the antenna pattern is uniform, the gain is equal to the area of the isotropic sphere (4r 2 ) divided by the sector (cross section) area.\n\n\n\n\nIt can be shown that:\n\n\n\n\nFrom this point, two different models are presented:\n\n(1) Approximating an antenna pattern using an elliptical area, and\n\n(2) Approximating an antenna pattern using a rectangular area.\n\n\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\nApproximating the antenna pattern as an elliptical area:\n \nArea of ellipse = a b = [ (r sin )/2 ][ (r sin )/2 ]= ( r 2 sin sin )/4\n\n\n\nFor small angles, sin = in radians, so:\n\n\n\n\nThe second term in the equation above is very close to equation [3].\n\nFor a very directional radar dish with a beamwidth of 1° and an average efficiency of 55%:\n\nIdeally: G = 52525, or in dB form: 10 log G =10 log 52525 = 47.2 dB\n\nWith efficiency taken into account, G = 0.55(52525) = 28888, or in log form: 10 log G = 44.6 dB\n\n \n\nApproximating the antenna pattern as a rect" +How big is the united states?,UK is very big and beautiful for live. +What are some unknown indie bands out there?,Juniper.\nYou can download all of their songs at:\nhttp://davejeffery.com/Bellx1/Upload/\n\nChrista Couture.\nYou can download two of her songs at:\nhttp://www.garageband.com/artist/christacouture\n\nMark Dignam\nYou can download two of his songs at:\nhttp://www.myspace.com/markdignam\n\nAustin.\nDownload his only songs at:\nhttp://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendID=13662170 +will brazil win world cup?,"It's always hard to say, but actually it's the world champion (2002).

It interprets the code used to make websites in a slightly different way and uses a different rendering engine to build the pages on your screen (called Gecko).\n\nLuckily there are web standards outlined by the W3 consortium which lay down the way in which websites should be coded. Manufacturers of browsers are then supposed to follow these guidelines. In this way a fully web standards approved page should be renderable on any browser.\n\nHowever the manufacturers of browsers do not fully follow the rules. In fact IE particularly deviates. Due to the huge dominance of IE as a choice for a browser (around 85% of people use it) sites have been coded to specifically render well in IE, as that is where most of their users are based.\n\nYet the number of people using alternative browsers has recently started to rise so web developers are starting to realise that they need to support Firefox and other browsers (otherwise they lose customers). Recently there has been an article that ponders whether sites can afford to ignore Firefox anymore. Take a read:\n\nhttp://www.marketingsherpa.com/sample.cfm?contentID=3130\n\nSo to come back and answer the question: Firefox doesn't render all pages perfectly in a way that IE does as wed developers have been coding spefically for IE instead of to web standards. The situation should improve as alternative browser usage increases." +Why do Euro-Americans wear shoes in their homes?,"There are many reasons.

It is sort of teardrop shaped, with a round end and a pointy end, but not symmetrical--one side seems flatter than the other. Let's imagine that the pointy end points to the right, the round end point to the left, the flatter side is on the bottom and the rounder side is on top.\n\nLet air flow from the left to the right. Air flowing near the airfoil at speeds that are not too fast (less than the speed of sound) is not compressible. Let's follow two tiny blobs of air that start next to each other, but approach the round end of the airfoil in such a way that one blob goes up and over the airfoil, while the other slides over the bottom. These two blobs will arrive at the pointy end at approximately the same time. But, the one going up and over as a longer path to take and therefore must travel faster. All the air molecules in a blob are actually thrashing about randomly and can collide with other air blobs nearby as well as the upper surface of the airfoil. This is true of the upper blob and the lower blob. But, if the upper blobs average speed is faster, then its molecules collide with the upper surface of the airfoil less over the trip from round end to point end than do the molecules in the lower blob. Therefore the pressure caused by the collisions of the molecules in the upper air blob on the upper side of the airfoil is less than the pressure on the lower surface caused by collisions of the lower blob's molecules with the lower surface. This means there is a difference of pressure between the two surfaces--pressure drops as you go from upper to lower surface. If the airfoil is rigid, then this difference in pressure will become a force exerted on the airfoil from below, called lift. This lift is what makes an airplane rise on takeoff as it rushes through the air with its wings whose cross-sections are airfoil shaped, rounded end into the oncoming air and flatter side towards the ground." +Please Provide me information about the ushroom farming?,"Hope this site helps before you go further.\n\n""...

Now, if the pressure is zero, then according to the formula PV=nRT (which is just the ideal gas law formula,) if P(pressure) equals 0, i think that means that T(temperature in Kelvin)would also be 0 which would mean that the temperature would be at absolute zero(which is defined as the temperature where all matter stops moving.. not that this would make a difference because there are no particles there because it's an absolute vacuum. \n\nThis is what i suspect and to confirm my beliefs, it is consistent with the fact that someone else said that outer space was 3K, and although it's very close to an absolute vacuum, there are a few particles and atoms of gas floating around there, and so it is not quite an absolute vacuum, and the temperature is 3K, meaning it's not quite at absolute zero. so it stands to reason that since temperature decreases when pressure decreases, that in an absolute vacuum the temperature would be absolute zero, 0 kelvin.\n\ni hope this is a ""good answer"" and that i made sense while i took you through my reasoning :)" +"in the field of printeres, copiers and fax machines...what would npcg stand for?","Hello,\n\nI use online Faxing and is really easy, cheap and very fast.

(March 14th)\n\nI did a lil' research & found it to be true...Here ya go:\n\nThese individuals are not only changeable and adaptable, they have open minds and tremendous understanding. But Pisces itself is often misunderstood. Pisces Suns may spend a good portion of their lives yearning for understanding, and the other part in a state of divine discontent. Suffering is sometimes glamorized in the Piscean world. \n\nSun in Pisces people are frequently pegged as wishy-washy, but this is all a matter of opinion. What you will find behind a vaguely directionless, spacey manner is a deep person with real dreams. Their dreams are more than getting that picket fence or making it up the corporate ladder. Pisces are tuned in to a higher purpose and their dreams transcend the individual. A deep love for humanity, and compassion that knows no bounds is found with this placement of the Sun. \n\nPisceans are not known to be cutthroat business types, nor are they given to throwing themselves out into the world in an aggressive manner. But make no mistake about it, Pisces can be extraordinarily successful when given the chance to express themselves. The arts, marketing, music, teaching, drama, healing arts...these are all fields in which Pisces can find expression. Their imagination, attunement to humanity, and remarkable intuition endow them with enviable gifts of insight and creativity.\n\nPisces is a sensitive sign—both sensitive to criticism and sensitive to others' feelings. Easily touched by human suffering, at least in theory, Pisces wouldn't hurt a fly. They believe in people, are deeply hurt by compassionless human behavior, and have a hard time saying no. Harsh realities are avoided either through escapist behavior or self-delusion; but every now and again reality does raise its ugly head, and hits Pisces over the head. This is a sad time indeed. Pisces retreats into their own world, self-pitying and giving pep talks to themselves (""I will never trust again!""). Rest assured, though, that these periods are rather short-lived and even useful. Pisces seems to derive energy from their (generally short) bouts of self-pity. They come back stronger, with a spring in their step, ready to face the world again, and just as, if not more, compassionate and trusting as they were before. Some might even wonder if Pisces finds pleasure in suffering. Sometimes this is the case, but most of the time, Pisces pulls a lot of creative energy from sadness. Pisces is the poet or artist with angst, although this trait is often more apparent with Moon in Pisces.\n\nSome find Pisces' tendency to be late for appointments, spaced out behavior, and absent-mindedness amount to irresponsibility. Pisces would be shocked to know this, however. Who me? Pisces wonders. Irresponsible? Pisces Suns absolutely care—their love knows no bounds—but their retreats from ordinary life (whether they are as simple as daydreams or actual departures) that they so seem to need every now and again are not always understandable to no-nonsense signs, such as Virgo or Aries. \n\nMany Pisces seem almost allergic to things like shopping lists, maps, directions, and instructions, and for some brave souls, even watches — they prefer to feel their way through life than to follow some plan.\n\nWe find plenty of artists, poets, and musicians with Sun (and other personal planets) in Pisces. Piscean themes are woven throughout the songs of Billy Corgan of the Smashing Pumpkins and Kurt Cobain of Nirvana, for example.\n\nLike I said, I'm a Pisces, & this is all true...At least it is for me...We also tend to be a jealous type as well..but I don't believe it mentioned that..." +Does anybody really care about the political thinking of actors and musicians?,"no, and they should keep their mouths shut when they're not performing" +what are tomatoes?,vegetables +What are the odds of marrying someone w/ your same birthday?,"Well, then the odds will just be the odds of meeting someone, falling in love, and getting married, multiplied by 1/365." +On what issues did the Lincoln-Douglas debates revole?,Common misconception.

For example, one of the theories explain the present expansion as a huge bubble of matter and waves. But, maybe there are other bubbles. And what if the black holes are the connections with other parallel universes in other dimensions? And the Big bang is just a transfer of matter from one universe to other?

Since 1990, he has been the most popular performer in Latin America. In the United States, he has become the only Latino artist to have two Spanish language albums, Romance and Segundo Romance go platinum. Both are comprised of tender South American romantic songs. In the U.S., Miguel has earned three Grammys. Segundo Romance won him one of them. It also earned Miguel a total of 34 platinum records throughout South and Central America in 1995. Follow-up releases included Musipistas and 1996's Nada Es Igual; in 1998, he co-starred in the film Fiebre de Amor, and also appeared on its soundtrack. Amarte Es un Place followed a year later. Miguel's international stardom was heavily recognized in fall 2000 — he won two Grammys (Male Pop Vocal Performance and Best Pop Album) for Amarte Es un Place at the first annual Latin Grammy Awards. Another accolade came in 2003, when he was nominted in the Favorite Latin Artist category of the American Music Awards.

This file keeps track of all discovered errors in ATLAS, and their workarounds or fixes. It also contains workarounds for common system problems (eg., compiler errors, non-standard commands, etc), as well containing advice necessary to get the best performance on various machines.\nIf you have downloaded the ATLAS source, your ATLAS/doc directory contains some useful documentation, though it is often more dated than the info in the errata and online.\n\nIf (and only if) neither of these sources provides the information you need, you can can submit a support request to: \n\nthe ATLAS support tracker. \nDo not, under any circumstances, post your support request to the ""bug"" tracker. As documented on the tracker itself, this is for developer confirmed bugs only. All users should use the support or feature request trackers. Things that turn out to be bugs will later be escalated to the bug tracker by the confirming developer.\nIn addition, please understand that the tone of your support request is important, as described here.\n\nYou do not need to create SourceForge account in order to use the tracker (that persistant plea to ""please log in"" can be ignored), though it makes things easier if you do. In particular, if you don't log in, you won't be able to later attach extra files, etc (you can attach a file in your initial report, but afterwords, it is unsure you are the original poster, so it won't allow it). So, if you think you may need to do this kind of thing relatively often, it may be worth doing.\n\nNote that you should upload the error_[ARCH].tgz file as well. If the error killed the ATLAS install before it succesfully created the error tarfile, create it yourself by issuing the following command from your ATLAS/ subdirectory: \n\n make error_report arch=[ARCH]\n\nNote that the [ARCH] of the above directions should be replaced by your architecture string that ATLAS is using (eg., Linux_P4SSE1 or SunOS_SunUS4, etc)." +what is (x + 2 ) (x + 3 )?,x^2 + 5x + 6 +All my video icons are missing!?,"click on my computer,then at the top click on tools then folder options.

I wish mine was that good LOL. +does war ever has an ending?,"Shooting wars can end, but economic competition never does." +How do they calculate oceanic tides in different places?,"Oceanic tides are caused by the gravitational attraction of the moon which raises up the ocean water beneath the moon causing a high tide. On the opposite side of the earth there is another high tide bulge caused in part by the spin of the earth. On the coast we observe two high and two low tides each day. As the earth spins the tidal bulge approaches a coast. The shape of the coast affects the height of the tide. At the Bay of Fundy in eastern Canada, the tide can equal about 45 feet at times because the tide is pulled into a converging channel that amplifies the tide. On other coasts, for example Caribbean islands, there is very little tide. Because the gravitational force of the sun also produces a lesser tide than the moon, the sun and moon work together or against each other in a complex way to vary the height of tides as the earth rotates about the sun in a less than perfect circle and the moon rotates about the earth and the earth spins on its axis. The angle of the earth's axis relative to the sun changes with the seasons also affecting heights of tides below the sun. \n\nTherefore at selected coastal stations, the tides are measured over long periods ot time in special hollow tubes with measuring scales (that are not affected by waves) and statistics are collected to predict future tides relative to the positions of the sun and moon. These data can be extrapolated or interpolated to prepare tide tables for nearby coastal areas that do not have their own measuring tubes." +Are those energy saving devices that supposedly lower your electric bills real?,"Many of the items and services offered do result in lower operating costs, such as insulation, thermal pane windows, caulking, weatherstriping.

Rose Bowl or Super Bowl?,"Well, the super bowl is better because in college football the bowls change for the national chamionship and that means the rose bowl,(this year the rose bowl is the championship), wont always be the best bowl to go to. The super bowl will always be the best bowl because in the NFL that is the only you can go to." +why is the sky blue?,"There is a physical phenomenon called Rayleigh scattering that causes light to scatter when it passes through particles that have a diameter one-tenth that of the wavelength (color) of the light. Sunlight is made up of all different colors of light, but because of the elements in the atmosphere the color blue is scattered much more efficiently than the other colors. \n\nSo when you look at the sky on a clear day, you can see the sun as a bright disk. The blueness you see everywhere else is all of the atoms in the atmosphere scattering blue light toward you. (Because red light, yellow light, green light and the other colors aren't scattered nearly as well, you see the sky as blue.)" +How many lightyears wide is the universe?,"""There is disagreement over whether the Universe is finite or infinite in spatial extent and volume.\n\n""However, the observable Universe, consisting of all locations that could have affected us since the Big Bang given the finite speed of light, is certainly finite. The edge of the cosmic light horizon is 13.7 billion light years (4.19 gpc) distant. The present distance (comoving distance) to the edge of the observable Universe is larger, since the Universe has been expanding; it is estimated to be about 78 billion light years (7.8 × 1010 light years, or 7.4 × 1023 km). This would make the comoving volume, of the known Universe, equal to 1.9 × 1033 cubic light years (assuming this region is perfectly spherical). The observable Universe contains about 7 × 1022 stars, organized in about 100 billion galaxies, which themselves form clusters and superclusters. The number of galaxies may be even larger, based on the Hubble Deep Field observed with the Hubble Space Telescope. The Hubble Space Telescope discovered galaxies such as Abell 1835 IR1916, which are over 13 billion light years from Earth.\n\n""Both popular and professional research articles in cosmology often use the term ""Universe"" when they really mean ""observable Universe"". This is because unobservable physical phenomena are scientifically irrelevant; that is, they cannot affect any events that we can perceive. See also Causality (physics).\n\nWe live in the centre of the Universe that we observe, in apparent contradiction to the Copernican principle which says that the Universe is more or less uniform and it has no distinguished centre. This is simply because light does not travel infinitely fast, and we make observations of the past. As we look further and further away, we see things from epochs (times) closer and closer to the limit of time, which equals zero, according to the Big bang model. Since light travels at the same speed in any direction towards us, it is reasonable to suggest that we live at the center of our observable Universe.""" +who is the pm of canada?,Paul Martin +Why didn't Fred hop through the window?,It's possible that entering a house through a window conflicted with Fred's religious beliefs. +"what's a cool, under $35 gift for a married, male supervisor 33 years old, likes music and electronic gadgets","A gift card to Comp USA or Best Buy.

Here is the sentence:?","Friends of Bill, hence a quote from Clinton." +how long is the average penis?,"But it's important for a man to realise the true facts about the length of the penis. When it is in a non-erect condition, the male organ usually measures between 8.5cm (just over 3"") and 10.5cm (just over 4"") from tip to base. The average figure is about 9.5cm (or 3 ¾""), but this kind of precise measurement is really rather valueless because so many factors (for instance, cold weather or going swimming) can temporarily cause a shrinkage of two inches or more. So you needn't be worried if you happen to fall short of the average figure. \n\nOf course, it's true that some men have big penises and some have smaller ones, just as some men have small feet and some have big feet, but the measurement is not - repeat not - an index of virility. \n\nMost people imagine that a tall, husky man will usually have a large penis, but this is not so at all. The distinguished American researchers Masters and Johnson measured the penile lengths of over 300 men. The largest organ (measuring 14 cm, or 5 ½"" in the flaccid state) belonged to a slim man who was only 5' 7"" tall; the smallest (measuring 6cm, or 2 ¼"") belonged to a fairly heavily built man of 5' 11"".\n\nIt's also worth pointing out that there is no correlation between penile size and race. \n\nThe erect penis\n\nWe've talked so far about the length of the male organ in its ordinary non-erect state. But now long should it be when it's erect? Well, the interesting thing here is that most penises are very much the same size when erect. The man whose non-erect organ is smallish will usually achieve about 100 per cent increase in length during sexual excitement, while the man whose limp penis is on the largish size will probably only manage about a 75 per cent increase. In round figures, this means that the great majority of men measure between 15cm (6"") and 18cm (7"") in the erect position, with the average figure being about 16.5cm (6 ½"")." +how can u purchase a home with bad credit in NJ?,Pay cash +How to wake up sleeping relatives?,"Why do you want to wake them up?

They are two frozen forms of water that depend on different crystaline structures. Snow flakes consist of six-sided symmetrical crystals (no two alike) that grow dendritically (like the branches of a pine tree). Ice is formed when heat is removed from water (as in a refrigerator) slowing down the vibrations of the water molecules until they can join and bond together in solid chains that use space less efficently than liquid water. Therefore the ice is less densly packed than water and floats. We know that 90% of an iceberg is floating under water and 10% above because ice takes up more room than the water that formed it." +What is the best player for .asf .wmv .mpeg .mpg .avi and other popular video formats with linux?,"My favourite player is VLC Player.

The program supports playback of OGG, MP2, MP3, MP4, DivX, DVD, and a whole slew of other file types. In addition, it also can function as a streaming media server. Because of its open-source foundation, VLC Media Player evolves quickly, with new features and fixes released frequently. Though the interface varies from platform to platform, the sparseness of the Windows version leaves plenty to be desired. \n\nThe best part is that it can even play parts of corrupted files, which other player cannot do. Even if you don't have codecs of a particular file format, it will play it.\n\nIts also very light on memory and the processor.\n\nThe only con of this player is that its interface is too plain, no sophistication, not that good a GUI.

It's harder if you don't have a good personality match with your teacher, but really, it's your life so don't let someone else hold you back.\n\nYou do need biology for several reasons.

By the body, the soul finds itself in relation n to the external world; by the spirit, with the world invisible and with God. By means of the soul, the spirit can subject the body to the action of the heavenly powers and thus spiritualize it; by means of the soul, the body also can act upon the spirit and attract it earthwards.

If you go for both, it means you know more than a student with only an acct concentration and more than one with only a finance concentration. Once you start working, you will realize what really interests you, and then you can pursue a concentration (Masters or professional certification) in one particular area.\n\nYou can imagine the tradeoff: more classes and more to study, which puts your GPA at risk. So if you are going to do both, make sure you can handle it and put in the time.

In wondering if the Verichip is that mark you would have to know its base code, but even if you did, it does not necessarily mean it is the mark of the beast. \nThe reason I say this is because the mark of the beast will be instituted throughout the world as an economic resource, so with that in mind there really is no way to tell if Verichip or any other identification chip is actually a precursor or the actual tool that will be used for the mark of the beast. \nIn the Bible, it tells us that each person will have an offer of whether or not to take the mark, and each person will have to choose. It also says that anyone who does choose to take the mark will have lost all hope of salvation and going to heaven. It is important to remember this because with regard to Verichip – that situation has not arisen yet and that God is very specific in what He tells us is coming. \nSo, I would have to say that Verichip may be a precursor to that upcoming economic world system based on 666, but at this time is not that mark – because the Scripture also tells us that whoever refuses to take the mark will be killed. That situation has not arisen yet. \nIf you are concerned with where we are in God’s plan – watch Israel. Israel is God’s timepiece, not the mark, the antichrist, wars, and all the other bad things going on in the world, watch Israel and you will be able to tell, by reading the Bible for yourself where we are in God’s plan. ~ God bless.\n\nRevelation 13:16-18; 14:9-11; 15:2; 16:2; 19:20; 20:4" +DO YOU HATE GEORGE BUSH FOR WHAT HE IS DOING WITH THE TROOPS?,Yes\n2000 + People have died\n25000 + are injured\nand not to mention the money involved\nand ofcourse rumors that the white house is covering up the actual death toll (just like vietnam)\nand not to mention the number of civilian iraqi's that have died +"My wife wants to buy a bike, how big should the bike frame be?","Couple of things you need to find out first. \n\nWhat kind of bike does she want?

This article is for information purposes only, if you dispay any of the symptoms shown herein, CONSULT YOUR DOCTOR. - Click on Anti - Parasite to return to the A-P page.\n\n\nDefinition\nThe word elephantitis or elephantiasis is a vivid and accurate term for the syndrome it describes: the gross (visible) enlargement of the arms, legs, or genitals to elephantoid size.\n\nDescription\nTrue elephantiasis is the result of a parasitic infection caused by three specific kinds of round worms. The long, threadlike worms block the body's lymphatic system--a network of channels, lymph nodes, and organs that helps maintain proper fluid levels in the body by draining lymph from tissues into the bloodstream. \n\nThis blockage causes fluids to collect in the tissues, which can lead to great swelling, called ""lymphedema."" Limbs can swell so enormously that they resemble an elephant's foreleg in size, texture, and color. This is the severely disfiguring and disabling condition of elephantiasis.\n\nThere are a few different causes of elephantiasis, but the agents responsible for most of the elephantiasis in the world are filarial worms: white, slender round worms found in most tropical and subtropical places. They are transmitted by particular kinds (species) of mosquitoes, that is, bloodsucking insects. Infection with these worms is called ""lymphatic filariasis"" and over a long period of time can cause elephantiasis.\n\nLymphatic filariasis is a disease of underdeveloped regions found in South America, Central Africa, Asia, the Pacific Islands, and the Caribbean. It is a disease that has been present for centuries, as ancient Persian and Indian writings clearly described elephant-like swellings of the arms, legs, and genitals. It is estimated that 120 million people in the world have lymphatic filariasis, as of 1997. The disease appears to be spreading, in spite of decades of research in this area.\n\nOther terms for elephantiasis are Barbados leg, elephant leg, morbus herculeus, mal de Cayenne, and myelolymphangioma. Other situations that can lead to elephantiasis are: a protozoan disease called leishmaniasis a repeated streptococcal infection the surgical removal of lymph nodes (usually to prevent the spread of cancer) a hereditary birth defect Causes and symptoms.\n\nThree kinds of round worms cause elephantiasis filariasis: Wuchereria bancrofti, Brugia malayi, and Brugia timori. Of these three, W. bancrofti makes up about 90% of the cases. Man is the only known host of W. bancrofti. Culex, Aedes, and Anopheles mosquitoes are the carriers of W. bancrofti. Anopheles and Mansonia mosquitoes are the carriers of B. malayi. In addition, Anopheles mosquitoes are the carriers of B. timori. Infected female mosquitoes take a blood meal from a human, and in doing so, introduce larval forms of the particular parasite they carry to the person.\n\nThese larvae migrate toward a lymphatic channel, then travel to various places within the lymphatic system, usually positioning themselves in or near lymph nodes throughout the body. During this time, they mature into more developed larvae and eventually into adult worms. Depending upon the species of round worm, this development can take a few months or more than a year. The adult worms grow to about 1 in (2.5 cm) to 4 in (10 cm) long.\n\nThe adult worms can live from about three to eight years. Some have been known to live to 20 years, and in one case 40 years. The adult worms begin reproducing numerous live embryos, called microfilariae. The microfilariae travel to the bloodstream, where they can be ingested by a mosquito when it takes a blood meal from the infected person. If they are not ingested by a mosquito, the microfilariae die within about 12 months. If they are ingest" +Anyone know a good source of bike gear / clothing / etc. online?,Performance Bike.

It is likely that all of the genes have not yet been found. So far, scientists have a model in which one gene can either be blue or brown, with brown being dominant, and the other gene being blue or green and green being dominant. The brown trait from the first gene overrides either blue or green on the second. So, if someone has the brown trait, they have brown eyes. This model obviously fails to explain hazel, gray, and various other multi-shaded eye colors.\n\nWhat these genes do is turn on melanin production in the eye, the same thing that determines skin color. The more melanin, the darker the eyes. The reason a baby's eye color changes is it is born with very little melanin, both in its skin and in its eyes. As it is exposed to sun, melanin production increases until they've reached the skin and eye color their genes code for.\n\nThis is unrelated to hair color, which is controlled by several genes as well." +At the age 10 yrs my daughter's 8 milk teeth only have gone and new came.(all extracted by Dr).

PCOS is an endocrine disorder that causes some women to have cysts around their ovaries in a pearl-like fashion.

PCOS also causes the body to be insulin resistant, which can lead to future health problems such as diabetes or heart disease. The disorder is thought to be genetic, although this is not confirmed. Many doctors simply treat the symptoms of this disorder, rather than treating the actual problem, which is of no help long term.

If she is taking hormonal birth control, she'll need to discontinue this for a few weeks prior to testing so that the results will be accurate." +Should I rent or buy a home in California?,"rent, there is going to be depreciation in California next year and the following, so you may end up upside down, and with a big mortgage payment." +what is the best way to get free POP access to my yahoo mail using Outlook 2003.?,"However, try http://www.poppeeper.com \n(it's free!)\n\nI think it works ok for basic Yahoo receiving/sending, but possibly not for forwarding.\n\nAnyway, it's a great little program - I use it all the time for my mainly Pop3 emails .... hardly ever open a ""real"" email program any more!" +i got a gift from someone who i nolonger speak to should i acknowledge the gift or maintain my personanongrata,"You must either thank this person, and accept the olive branch they've extended, or return the gift to them...

Version 1.5 of Firefox offers a few notable features, foremost of which is the ability to reorder tabs by dragging and dropping them.

You can easily create toolbars by dragging and dropping icons. More technically minded users will appreciate that Firefox displays the page source in a new window, using indents and color-coded tags like an HTML editor.

This may limit \nthe possibilities of long-term weather forecasting. (The canonical example \nis the possibility of a butterfly's sneeze affecting the weather enough to \ncause a hurricane weeks later.) \n \nDevaney defines a function as chaotic if it has sensitive dependence on ini- \ntial conditions, it is topologically transitive, and periodic points are \ndense. In other words, it is unpredictable, indecomposable, and yet contains \nregularity. \n \nAllgood and Yorke define chaos as a trajectory that is exponentially unstable \nand neither periodic or asymptotically periodic.

Evolution is by far the best explanation for the change of life through time and for most similarites among organisms seen today.\n\nSince creationism is in the news today, I'll add this:\n\nA religion is a set of beliefs and practices that are believed in despite the fact that they cannot be proved to most people's satisfaction. Adhering to a religion requires a ""leap of faith"" by its adherants.\n\nScience is a set of self-correcting methods for discovering how nature works, and the body of knowledge developed using those methods. A theory is a concept that has been tested against scientific knowledge and does a good job of explaining it. Most people agree upon the explanation given by a scientific theory.\n\nEvolution does not explain the origin of life. It explains how life developed over time. Evolution has nothing to say about the existence or nonexistence of God or any other supernatural being. A large proportion of scientists, including evolutionary scientists, believe in Christianity or another religion.\n\nEvolution is in conflict with Genesis Chapter 1, the other creation stories in the Old Testament, and with the creation stories of other religions. That is not because creation stories claim to explain the _origin_ of life; evolution does not address the _origin_ of life. It is because creation stories explain the origins of species, or ""kinds,"" or whatever terminolgy you use, separately from each other and evolution explains that each species arose from an earlier species by natural selection acting upon random mutations.\n\n(Did you know that the Old Testament contains several versions of the creation story and that these versions are in conflict with each other?)\n\nIntelligent design is a variety of the pseudoscience of creationism, which was created by Christian fundamentalists.\n\nThe Christian doctrine of creation, as understood by mainstream Christians, teaches that God created and sustains the universe. It does not specify whether the original creation was accomplished by divine creation (creation ex nihlo), the Big Bang, or by another means.\n\nFundamentalists believe that the Bible is inerrantly and infallibly true. They fear that if any aspect of the Bible is not ""literally true"" (that it doesn't mean what they interpret it to mean), then the salvation promised by Jesus was a lie.\n\nThis extreme belief, coupled with general knowledge of science, has led fundamentalists to create a set of beliefs to rationalize their interpretation of the Bible with their knowledge of science. That set of pseudoscientific beliefs has evolved from creationism to scientific creationism, to intelligent design.\n\nBy far, the large majority of Christians do not link the factual correctness of the Bible to the spiritual truths it reveals and the promise of salvation made by Jesus.\n\nThus, by a wide margin, most Christians believe in the doctrine of creation, but do not believe in the pseudoscience of creationism, whatever name it goes by." +How do I find free training on Microsoft Project 2003 ?,"I recommend the Step-by-Step series of books for MS Project, published by MS Press which you could get from a library - or buy for around $20.

If you start playing your irons out towards your left foot (for a right handed player) I think you'll have a tendency to blade or thin more shots, which is definitely not what you want. \n\nI think ball position might be an issue, but remember you have to hit down on the ball to make it go up! So play all irons up to your 5 irons in the middle of your stance, and then just slightly forward of middle for your 4 and 3 iron. \n\nTo make sure the ball is in the middle of your stance, setup to the ball and then lay a club down parralel to your feet and then lay one perpendicular to the one at your feet bisecting the ball. It should look like a big plus sign, and it should be easier to tell if the ball is in the middle of your stance. \n\nYou can hit balls with this aid, just pull the bisecting club back away from the ball about a foot and then use it as a guide to take your stance. \n\nAlso aim the club that's parrelel to your feet at the target, this will help you aim correctly. \n\nAnd remember....PRACTICE!!! ;)" +Do you believe that love moves in mysterious ways?,"YES I DO.

Later, namely in 1428, he began the construction of a magnificent three-level observatory in Samarkand. The Observatory, which was circular in shape, was over 50 meters in diameter and 35 meters high.

Many of them selected Thailand as their destination. They started a new life in the Kingdom with prosperity. They still kept their identity by using their Chinese name. Thereafter, their kids, the following generation, were born with a Thai Name. However, they still used a Chinese last name like Tang, Lim, Ng, etc. They then came to realise that it was not localized enough to have a Thai name with a Chinese last name. They began to apply for a Thai last name. That is the starting point of this story. When you go to apply for Thai last name, the regulation for registration of the new last name is as follows:\n\n 1. The applicants submit 5 alternatives to the government officer. Each one has a maximum of 10 Thai characters.\n 2. The officer will search in the data base for identical last names. The law does allow identical last names to those existing already So hopefully, one of your 5 alternatives will be unique and can be used.\n 3. About one month later, you will check with the officer. If there is any duplication, you need to create the new one and resubmit it again. If not the case, you can use the real NEW last name. \n\nSince we have a lot of immigrant Chinese, subsequent applicants have to create a new name that has a low probability of duplication. Thus, the new surnames just get longer and longer.'" +"When a stock is de-listed from an exchange, why does Yahoo finance eliminate the ticker symbol the same day?","Well, the answer to your last question is... they can if they want to.\n\nI don't have the answer to your first question.

It never fails, just as soon as the weather changes a little and starts to turn cold, people begin to sniffle, sneeze and cough and the symptoms of the common cold begin to come around once again.\n\nBut before you run out to the nearest store to buy a supply of tissues, cold medicine and soup, you need to understand exactly what you are up against. Your chances of being exposed to a cold germ will increase or decrease depending on the amount of contact you have with other people and how you take care of yourself.\n\nThe cold germ is spread from person to person when someone, who is infected, sneezes or coughs into the air or on you. The airborne germ then enters someone else’s body through an orifice, like your eyes, nose or mouth. You can also catch a cold by touching something that a person who has been infected has also touched and then touching your mouth, nose or eyes.\n\nThere are many things that you can do to prevent yourself from getting a cold.\n\n1. You should wash your hands a lot. This frequent hand washing, especially when using any anti-bacterial soap, will help you to get rid of any potential germs that you might have come into contact with.\n\n2. You should carry and use anti-bacterial hand lotion several times throughout the day. Use it especially when you cannot get to a bathroom and you know you have touched something infected or have been near an infected person.\n\n3. You should also get plenty of sleep or rest. If you are tired and fatigued, your body’s resistance decreases and you will find that you are more susceptible to colds.\n\nThere are many ways that you can fight a cold once you have caught one.\n\n1. You should eat spicy foods. Spicy hot foods will cause your body to expel mucus. When you eat these types of foods, your nose will start to run and you will begin to cough up mucus. Spicy foods work just like a natural decongestant but without side effects. This advice is good for those people who cannot take over the counter medication.\n\n2. You should drink plenty of liquids. Liquids like soup, water, juice and flat ginger ale will keep your body hydrated. This is true especially if you have a fever. During a fever, your body loses a lot of fluids. You will need to replenish what you have lost. Therefore you need to drink often throughout your illness. You should also avoid drinking any dairy drinks because the dairy will cause mucus to form and coat your throat making it very difficult for you to swallow and cough.\n\n3. You should use a vaporizer. It will keep the air that you breathe moist. If you do not have a vaporizer handy, then just crack open the windows in your home. This is very important if you have an extremely warm and dry home. Cracking the windows will have the same effects that a vaporizer has." +Does looks matter?,"no !!! you have to be your self .. it dosent matter if you have make up it dosent even matter wat color you are or wat you were or even about hair , face or eney thing else all you got tot do is be your self and dont for get you dont all ways have to empress!! i\I learned that it dosent matter if you have glasses. beacse one day i was trying to empress a gye i really really liked but i was trying to hard i was putting all this make up and this hair stuff on and by takeing off my glasses so soon as i was done i went to hhhhim with freinds to talk butt he diddnt exept it he asked me whhy i did it he siad he like me the way i was and the way i used to be so he never liked me since i think.i dont see him eney more well becase he lives some were else and yea so dont for get empretions arnt all.... hope you get all my good advice hope to win ." +What is the best metal for mirror?,Mercury is probably the best metal as it is liquid at room temperature.

The rough endoplasmic reticulum (ER) have ribosomes attached to the cytoplasmic surface. The smooth ER lacks ribosomes.\nSmooth ER serves diverse functions in different cells: Its enzymes are involved in phospholipid, steroid, and sex hormone synthesis; carbohydrate metabolism; and detoxification of drugs and poisons.\nSmooth ER also functions in storage and release of calcium ions during muscle contraction.\nProteins intended for secretion are manufactured by membrane-bound ribosomes and then threaded into the lumen of the rough ER, where they fold into their native conformation. Many are covalently bonded to small carbohydrates to form glycoproteins. Secretory proteins are transported from the rough ER in membrane-bound transport vesicles.\nRough ER manufactures membranes for the cell. Enzymes built into the membrane assemble phosolipids, and membrane proteins formed on bound ribosomes are inserted into the ER membrane. Transport vesicles transfer ER membrane to other parts of the endomembrane system." +Is an organic substance marked by containing carbon?,"Yes and No...\n\nAll Organic Compounds contain Carbon, but not all compounds containing Carbon are Organic.\n\nas quoted from my source, listed below...\n\n""An organic compound is any member of a large class of chemical compounds whose molecules contain carbon, with the exception of carbides, carbonates, carbon oxides and gases containing carbon.The study of organic compounds is termed organic chemistry. Many of these compounds, such as proteins, fats, and carbohydrates (sugars), are also of prime importance in biochemistry.\n\nThe dividing line between organic and inorganic is contended and historically arbitrary; generally speaking, however, organic compounds are defined as those compounds which have carbon-hydrogen bonds, and inorganic compounds, those without.

Music often exhibits a steady beat as does your heart. It has been noted that slow music can actually slow your heartbeat causing you to relax. A low sound volume would also be less stressful than loud music. Playing music that you especially enjoy, perhaps classical music, may command your attention diverting you from other cares.\n\nMusic often consistes of intricate harmonies wherein many instruments, including vocals, produce a highly pleasing effect. This is quite different compared with noise, such as the screeching sound of chalk on a blackboard or the bone-rattling sound of a pneumatic drill tearing up pavement outside your window.\n\nAlso, if you are a musician, playing your instrument may bring you the great pleasure of accomplishment, bringing much relaxation.

Watch your terminology, though - slavery was not a crime until 1865, since the government permitted slavery and only outlawed it through the Thirteenth Amendment after the Civil War.\n\nFor instance, the United States paid survivors of Japanese internment programs from WWII. The program, however, was limited to survivors. No survivors of slavery exist today.\n\nA current reparations program would be too bizarre to fathom. All African-Americans were not harmed by slavery, after all, since some immigrated to America after slavery, or since some have no slave ancestors. It would be virtually impossible to require proof of slave ancestry, and then to divide some sum proportionately.\n\nAdditionally, the vague ""400 yr+ of oppression"" is unhelpful in crafting legislation. Slavery ended. Segregation did exist also, that's ended for over 50 years now. If you're problem with ""White supremacy and injustice,"" then I'm afraid that no amount of money will solve the problem.

""The evolution of mathematics might be seen to be an ever-increasing series of abstractions, or alternatively an expansion of subject matter. The first abstraction was probably that of numbers. The realization that two apples and two oranges do have something in common, namely that they fill the hands of exactly one person, was a breakthrough in human thought. In addition to recognizing how to count concrete objects, prehistoric peoples also recognized how to count abstract quantities, like time -- days, seasons, years.

In many ways the U.S. is a profoundly different place now.

For example, when I heard a couple of days ago that Bush authorized wiretaps without warrants, my first thought was ""of course he did."" I thought that because that is simply how he and his administration operate. Of course they want to imprison people indefinetly without trial or even charges. Of course they want to use torture and abuse. Of course they have secret prisons around the world. The time when anything about Bush could surprise me is long gone.\n\nBut the amazing thing his how much support he continues to enjoy. Even at his lowest polls gave him close to 40 percent support. So if you want to be really depressed, remember how disgusting, how reprehensible, how incompetent Bush is, and then realize that 40 percent of Americans approve of him.\n\nBitter aftertaste? I would have to say that things are actually much worse here than you imagine. In addition to Bush we have a right-wing propaganda empire.

Superman is ""The Man of Steel,"" but that doesn't even begin to describe his abilities.\n\nWhat has He-Man got going for him that Superman doesn't? Let's see. It's not likely that Prince Adam is as strong as Supes as we haven't seen him (I don't think) reverse time by spinning a planet backwards on its axis. However, he does have access to powerful magic and sorcery. This would likely give him somewhat of an edge over the man in the cape.\n\nWhat does Superman have going on? He's stronger, but that will probably be evened out by the fact that He-Man can use certain magical items. He might not be smarter, per se, but his brain reacts much more quickly than the barbarian's. \n\nI'm going to have to give the edge to Superman as he could probably quickly out-think anything He-Man came up with in an attempt to defeat him.\n\nBut we also have to consider where the battle would take place.

Then they look at your science GPA. I have been told many times a 3.0 GPA will get you into med school. You of course need to take alot of sciences (biology, gen chem, organic chem, and biochem, physics) to prepare for the MCAT. \n\nI am currently in my junior year at UAB (university of alabama at birmingham) and am taking the MCAT in 2006 after I finish with my last physics semester in Spring 06. My GPA is 3.4 and have had 2 years of MD (CP200) shadowing from Burn Unit, STICU, ER and OR. I also have a big family history of physicians. Also its not a bad idea to shadow a MD who is actually on the board of the med school you are applying to. Also the interview is one of the most crucial parts. Don't have a interview and say you are doing it for the $$$. Medical school is not about book knowledge. It's about being able to work in a group and working with all kinds of patients. You will never be able to learn everything, it's all experience. I want to go into Neurosurgery or Cardiothoracic surgery. I need to go into 4 years of college, 4 years of med school, and then 3 years of specializing. You still will not know everything there is, and the only way you can learn is by having years of experience. I have heard that it takes of 10 years just for neurosurgeons to experienced enough to be experts in their field. This is why most of the good physicians are pretty old.

By this I mean that it has developed over the past 50 years since Indian independence to become closer and closer to the working Western definition of a vibrant, healthy liberal democracy.\n\nIn addition, it is possible one could argue that India's political system will benefit its economy in the long run in comparison to China's. Yes, China has seen explosive economic growth recently, but this growth is largely unsustainable and artificial. India's economy, on the other hand, is very open and becoming much more service-oriented - a sign of a developing nation at large. With the information revolution, this will largely benefit India more than China, where economic power is centred in the manufacturing sectors.\n\nAlso, I think one could argue that India has had much more success with the legitimacy of its system of government - that is, the lack of threats to that legitimacy. China, on the other hand, is constantly looking to solidify the government's legitimacy through forceful means, such as imprisoning dissidents or those who oppose the Communist regime. \n\nHowever, it all comes down to what approach you plan to take in terms of what ""working best"" means. I highly suggest you figure this out before you work the rest of the paper out, it will contribute greatly to the paper's value in terms of a linear, concise and clear set of arguments. \n\nHope this helps!" +what causes canker sores?,"There are many possible causes, from stress to allergies to stomach acid to nutritional deficiencies.

The debtor turns over all non-exempt property to the bankruptcy trustee who then converts it to cash for distribution to the creditors. The debtor receives a discharge of all dischargeable debts usually within four months. In the vast majority of cases the debtor has no assets that he would lose so Chapter 7 will give that person a relatively quick ""fresh start"".\n\nOne of the main purposes of Bankruptcy Law is to give a person, who is hopelessly burdened with debt, a fresh start by wiping out his or her debts.\n\nChapter 13\n\nChapter 13 Bankruptcy is also known as a reorganization bankruptcy. Chapter13 bankruptcy is filed by individuals who want to pay off their debts over a period of three to five years. This type of bankruptcy appeals to individuals who have non-exempt property that they want to keep. It is also only an option for individuals who have predictable income and whose income is sufficient to pay their reasonable expenses with some amount left over to pay off their debts. More information on Chapter 13.\n\nNew Bankruptcy Law taking effect on October 17, 2005: The major intent of bankruptcy reform is to require people, who can afford to make some payments towards their debt, to make these payments, while still affording them the right to have the rest of their debt erased. These people MUST file Chapter 13. \n\nCredit Report\n\nBankruptcy filings are public records. However, under normal circumstances, no one will know you went bankrupt.

Usually, you want a uniform distribution between zero and one (i.e. the probability of any number that you can represent with a computer is equal to the probability of any other number). Since the most common use of random (or pseudo-random) numbers is computer simulation, you also want to do it fast enough to compute thousands of scenarios quickly. \n\nThere are a number of methods to do this, but they often have hidden periodicity that makes them not look like uniform random numbers, and thus not produce the results you want. It seems silly, but I have actually run simulations using the Excel random number generator, where I knew the correct answer and the simulation did not produce it. When I changed to a different random number generator, I got the answer I was expecting.\n\n""Numerical Recipes"" gives a much better explanation than I did for this problem, and it also gives a few very good random number generators.

If you look in a good songbook you'll find the word helpfully translated as ""come by here,"" with the note that the song is ""from Angola, Africa."" The ""come by here"" part I'll buy. But Angola? Someone's doubtin', Lord, for the obvious reason that kumbaya is way too close to English to have a strictly African origin. More likely, I told my assistant Jane, it comes from some African-English pidgin or creole--that is, a combination of languages. (A pidgin is a linguistic makeshift that enables two cultures to communicate for purposes of trade, etc.; a creole is a pidgin that has become a culture's primary language.) Sure enough, when we look into the matter, we find this conjecture is on the money. Someone's grinnin', Lord, kumbaya.\n\nKumbaya apparently originated with the Gullah, an African-American people living on the Sea Islands and adjacent coastal regions of South Carolina and Georgia. (The best known Sea Island is Hilton Head, the resort area.) Having lived in isolation for hundreds of years, the Gullah speak a dialect that most native speakers of English find unintelligible on first hearing but that turns out to be heavily accented English with other stuff mixed in. The dialect appears in Joel Chandler Harris's ""Uncle Remus"" stories, to give you an idea what it sounds like. In the 1940s the pioneering linguist Lorenzo Turner showed that the Gullah language was actually a creole consisting of English plus a lot of words and constructions from the languages of west Africa, the Gullahs' homeland. Although long scorned as an ignorant caricature of English, Gullah is actually a language of considerable charm, with expressions like (forgive my poor attempt at expressing these phonetically) deh clin, dawn (literally ""day clean""); troot mout, truthful person (""truth mouth""), and tebble tappuh, preacher (""table tapper"").\n\nAnd of course there's kumbayah. According to ethnomusicologist Thomas Miller, the song we know began as a Gullah spiritual. Some recordings of it were made in the 1920s, but no doubt it goes back earlier. Published versions began appearing in the 1930s. It's believed an American missionary couple taught the song to the locals in Angola, where its origins were forgotten. The song was then rediscovered in Angola and brought back here in time for the folksinging revival of the 50s and 60s. People might have thought the Gullahs talked funny, but we owe them a vote of thanks.

I think a nice interface is very important since people will come back more often if so.\n\nThe relevance of search results make its 'Feeling Lucky' feature pretty useful.

The problems include accuracy of the media file. That is the reason for providing Google Videos where users have to submit videos.\n\nDue to a larger share of 'searching' community, Google has been targeted by bloggers by planting Google Bombs.

Do you think its a little wierd?,"If you get the chance, take a flight in a sailplane and soar beneath a cloud, for example at Elmira, NY, soaring capitol of the world. An airplane will tow you aloft then release you. If the (trained) pilot maneuvers you under a cloud, the glider will actually gain altitude as he or she circles around under the cloud. The cloud is forming because there is an updraft under the cloud feeding it warm moist air that will cool and condense sustaining the cloud. The updraft is a round column of air and produced a relatively round cloud. Of course not all clouds are alike or even at the same elevation. Some blanket the sky from horizon to horizon. But local round clouds are great for soaring. Try it some day and you will better appreciate clouds." +what is datawarehouse?,"A data warehouse is, primarily, a record of an enterprise's past transactional and operational information, stored in a database designed to favor efficient data analysis and reporting (especially OLAP).

Although lyrics were written for the theme music, they were not used. The lyrics were published in Stephen E.

Its the best in terms of researching information.\n\nFor makin money, a #1 on google is worth many times more than a #1 on yahoo. Yahoo! blocks the top of the SERPs with sponsored ads.\n\nGoogle also has a neat interface. Yahoo is not bad too, but its interface is not that neat. The reason for that being it to be a portal. I think a nice interface is very important since people will come back more often if so.\n\nThe relevance of search results make its 'Feeling Lucky' feature pretty useful. Firefox address bar by defaults goes to 1 site listed on your search results.\n\nGoogle has tried to stay away from Spam/ misleading sites better than other search engines.\n\nCons of Google:\n\nHowever, few problems with google, its web crawler dosen't capture hyperlinks from PDF files stored on net, a feature which Yahoo provides.\n\nAlso, Google at present does not provide an index for video aggregation through the web crawler, a feature which Altavista provided since 1999. The problems include accuracy of the media file. That is the reason for providing Google Videos where users have to submit videos.\n\nDue to a larger share of 'searching' community, Google has been targeted by bloggers by planting Google Bombs. Because most bloggers mention the word failure with President Bush's name, the #1 site on searching Failure is the website of President Bush.\n\nYahoo is doing pretty good research in Search Technologies, for example Grokker.\n\nhttp://www.grokker.com/grokker.html?query=Anirudh%20Koul&Yahoo=true&Daypop=true&numResults=250" +how to convert pdf files to ms word document ( not text )?,"For PDF to Word conversion, I've found that SolidPDF does a good job.

If oxygen is re-introduced to the fire, eg. by opening a door to a closed room, combustion can restart often resulting in a near-explosive effect as the gases heat and expand. This effect is the basis for the synonym smoke explosion. Characteristic signs include yellow or brown smoke, smoke which exits small holes in puffs (often found around the edges of doors and windows), and windows which appear brown or black when viewed from the exterior. These darker colors are caused by incomplete combustion.\n\nThis is a very dangerous situation, often surprising even professional firefighters. The most common tactic used by firefighters in defusing a potential backdraft is to ventilate from the highest point, allowing the heat and smoke to escape without igniting explosively." +what is the purpose and nature of Constitution?,"The U.S. Constitution is the basis for all law in the U.S. It describes the how the government of the Unitied States operates.

And the Specialized Stumpjumper can be had for less than $500.\n\nI'd stay away from anything you found in a deptament store, and instead head right to one or more of your local bike shops. They can be very helpful in choosing the right bike for your budget. And they don't sell crap that will fall apart in a year. :)" +does a curve ball really curve?,"No, but if you ask a baseball player ""does a curveball curve?"" they'll tell you that it sure does, and they're right. It turns out it is a lot harder to prove than you may have expected. In September 1941, Life magazine claimed to have proven, through a series of high speed pictures, that the curve ball didn’t curve at all and it was just an ""optical illusion."" Again, as recently as November 1982, Science 82 magazine published an article that referred to the ""apparent break in a curveball"" as an ""illusion."" If curveballs curve a lot, according to baseball players than where does this controversy stem from?\nThe bottom dotted line is tangent to the path of the ball when the pitcher releases the ball. If the hitter thinks the ball is a fastball this is the path they would expect the ball to take, but the ball curves on its way to the plate, represented by the solid black line, and the hitter would claim the the ball curved the width of the plate.\n\nHowever, if you were to draw a line from where the ball leaves the pitcher's hand to where it crosses the plate. The largest deviation from this line, called the sagitta, is much smaller. If you were to have three poles in a row it would be very difficult to throw a pitch which passes left of the first, right of the second, and left of the third." +What are some good vitamins to take to build muscle?,"The muscles of the body actually depend heavily on the vitamins, minerals as well as on the other nutrients that we take in so as to ensure that they're always well taken care of.

I would say, to be on the safe side... that the craziest thing I've done to date was when I flew to Boston from St. Louis to visit an online friend. Turns out he had a one room basement apartment with only one bed. Keep in mind that I had never met this person until I visited him. I chose to stay with him in his dinky apartment and sleep next to him for however long I was there. (I think it was like 4 days or so.) I told my boyfriend at the time that it was an old friend from school that I was visiting. I was very young, and the guy I was visiting was a VERY big guy! I must have weighed 105 lbs., and he about 300. I was outrageously stupid to do what I did. Nobody knew exactly where I was. I didn't own a cell phone at the time. I had no money.

Your body/mind might be trying to tell you something. In that case, you may want to just observe it, accept it, and let it pass naturally.\n\nThrough practice and mental exercises (meditation) you can learn to deal with those thoughts you ""don't want"" (See Vipassana Meditation for example).\n\nThere is a middle path between suppression and expression--just observation." +what is a good free anti virus program?,"I use AVG's Free edition\n\nFrom Wikipedia - \n""AVG's free edition has spearheaded the company's growth.

To be pragmatic is to seek a solution that's practical, WHETHER OR NOT IT'S RIGHT! Usually, a pragmatic decision is one of compromise, where some are for and some are against, but it's the most ""feasible"" solution.\n\nThus leadership that claims to be pragmatic cannot be held in high esteem when compared to leadership that is decisive in choosing the right or moral option, even if there is much disagreement by one side or another. Remember, just because a majority believes or desires something, doesn't make it right. At one time, slavery was supported by the majority.\n\n""Progressive"" has been most recently used to define the liberal movement, or that of the Democratic party.\n\nIn earlier U.S. history, a Progressive was ""a member of a predominantly agrarian minor party that around 1912 split off from the Republicans"".\n\nThe term was also used to describe followers of Robert M. La Follette in 1924 and Henry A. Wallace in 1948 presidential elections.\n\nToday, a Progressive is more or less a modern socialist, one who believes in ""social improvement by government action."" To be blunt, Progressives want to re-distribute wealth, punishing the productive achievers of the country and rewarding the indolent welfare-grabbers." +"What do you think is the best Xmas present you could get, besides money :)?","One that is thoughtful and wouldn't normally buy myself.

Disagreement exists about the proper scope for the application of ethical evaluation to questions involving biology. Some bioethicists would narrow ethical evaluation only to the morality of medical treatments or technological innovations, and the timing of medical treatment of humans. Other bioethicists would broaden the scope of ethical evaluation to include the morality of all actions that might help or harm organisms capable of feeling fear and pain.\n\nBioethics involves many public policy questions that are often politicized— used to mobilize political constituencies. For this reason, some biologists and others involved in the development of technology have come to see any mention of ""bioethics"" as an attempt to derail their work and react to it as such, regardless of the true intent. Transhumanist biologists in particular can be inclined to this line of thought, as they see their work as inherently ethical, and attacks on it as misguided." +"How can I erase the voice from an audio file, leaving the background music?

But of course if you have too much, it can become a problem. Appox. 95% of all ingested fats are triglycerides. Even though our bodies needs cholesterol to make hormones and deal with stress and trauma, the wrong ratio of cholesterol types can pose a problem. \nHDL, the supposed good cholestorol is actually the transporter(high-density lipoprotein) just as LDL(low density lipoprotein), bad cholesterol, is also a transporter. LDL brings cholesterol and triglycerides from the liver and out to the body putting the circulatory system at risk. HDL brings fat back to the liver to be processed and excreted or used. If one has too much LDL over HDL, then it becomes a dangerous ratio for heart disease. This is in part due to the Standard American Diet(SAD) that has too much saturated fats and not enough unsaturated fats. And our brains and nerve system as well as our very cell membranes need EFA's, essential fatty acids, from good oils/fats. Therefore, diet is absolutely important. But so is lifestyle and stress reduction. \nOne thing you can do is increase your HDL, good cholesterol by including UNsaturated fats( increase HDL) with Omegas(3/6/9) in your diet. Esp. Omega-3 fatty acids. They include avocado/safflower/coconut/fish/flaxseed and especially most importantly olive oil. Flax is one of the best ways to get Omegas and has the highest concentrates of it. Olive oil is best to use when cooking or with salads. If you like the taste of flax oil, it's good in salads and over food. Otherwise seeds ground or in meal is good in salads or porridge. Cold water fish oil(omega 3/6/9) are good in capsules. Fresh cold/deepwater fish is good to eat on occasion but one must watch out for the heavy metals in them so capsules are a good way to avoid that. Make sure you get a brand that says 'third party inspected' and molecularly distilled. \nAs far as diet, remember, saturated fats( which increase LDL), animal fats, are literally saturated and do not move as much through your veins. That is why they cause blockages to your heart/brain. At room temperature they are solid. Therefore in your body they can block up your veins if there is more of that than unsaturated, liquid. You need a lot of unsaturated fats to keep things flowing as well as EFA's(essential fatty acids/Omegas) are good for your brain, mood, cellular and hormone support. so try and keep your animal fats to a minimum and eat healthy versions: pure butter, free-range, antibiotic/hormone FREE meats of any kind; free range eggs etc...and increase your vegetables like broccoli, kale and leafy greens, good nuts (look up which are higher in EFA's, ie. walnuts) and whole grains which are good for lowering cholesterol because they provide ruffage to help keep bowels flowing...which taxes the liver less and the liver needs all the help it can get...so if your digestion is good and smooth, then your liver is less stressed and can perform better, thereby also helping with cholesterol. \nI could go on but check this out further if you need to. \n\nhope that helps!!" +what is the sky made up of?,"Primarily made up of nitrogen (78.09%) and oxygen (20.95%).

While you can't study only what you like as we all have to take language and math so we can survive in the everyday world you can take electives in high school and college that you find fun.

It was a round dial like on your oven or washing machine. You would have to turn that to get to the channel you wanted. Same with knobs on a radio.

Don't touch that dial!"" originated on the ""Blondie and Dagwood"" radio show, spoken before each episode by announcer Hanley Stafford. All three radio reference books on my shelf (Dunning, Terrace, Buxton & Owen) confirm that this catch-phrase was part of the opening to Blondie. However, Hanley Stafford played Mr. Dithers (Dagwood's boss). The announcers were Bill Goodwin, Howard Petrie, and Harlow Wilcox. \n Blondie started on CBS in 1939 and ran on various networks until 1950.""" +"how is elementary school running in USA? i.e., financial support, administration roles, evaluation process, et","This varies wildly from state to state, from county to county, and from school to school.

I can't tell you how serious it is...you need to find a doctor who will talk to you and explain things. \n\nLeiomyosarcoma is a rare cancer that affects smooth muscles. Low to intermediate grade is not as bad as advanced, so that part sounds positive. Focal necrosis means there is a part of the tissue sample that shows cells that are dying. I can't tell you what that means in the overall picture. The mitotic count is a measure of how many cells in the sample are dividing. HPF means high power field. I'm taking this to mean that when they looked under a high power microscope, 2-3 out of 10 cells were dividing. I can't give you a reference number for what is normal, but in general, more cells dividing would indicate the tumor is growing faster than a low number. \n\nImmunohistochemistry means staining the cells in the sample with markers to see what kind of cells they are. CD34 is a marker for undifferentiated cells. S-100 is another marker, but I can't tell you exactly what it indicates. The presence or absence of markers can mean either good or bad news, but I don't know exactly how these are used here and I don't want to guess.\n\nThat doesn't really answer your questions, because you really need a doctor who knows this case to tell you what to expect.

Both Republicans and Democrats protested their decisions. Kennedy and Johnson started Vietnam, with people from both parties opposing the war.\n\nBoth Gulf Wars, started by Republican Bushs, were opposed mostly by Democrats, although some Republicans like Pat Buchanan and Ron Paul decried the wars. Democrat Clinton involved the US in Bosnia, with Republicans condemning the decision and Democrats protesting the war.\n\nParty affiliation doesn't have much to do with supporting or opposing a war.

There are more than 16 pyramids spread all over Greece. (See Hellenic Pyramids.)\n \nThe pyramids of Giza. The largest pyramids are Menkaure's pyramid, Khafre's pyramid, and the Great Pyramid. Pyramid-shaped structures were built by many ancient peoples. The most famous are the Egyptian pyramids — huge pyramids built of brick or stone, used as tombs for pharaohs. The Great Pyramid of Giza is the largest in Egypt and tallest in the world. It is one of the Seven Wonders of the World, and the only one of the seven to survive into modern times. The ancient Egyptians smoothed the faces of their pyramids with gold and polished white limestone, though many of the stones used for the purpose have fallen out over the centuries.\n\nTo the south of Egypt the Nubians also built pyramids. They built far more than the Egyptians, but they are much smaller. The Nubian pyramids were constructed at a much steeper angle than Egyptian ones and were not tombs, but monuments to dead kings. Pyramids were built in Nubia up until the AD 300s.\n\nThe Mesopotamians also built step pyramids, or ziggurats. In ancient times these were brightly painted. Since they were constructed of mud-brick, little remains of them. The biblical Tower of Babel is believed to be a Babylonian ziggurat.\n\nA number of Mesoamerican cultures also built pyramid-shaped structures. Mesoamerican pyramids were also usually stepped, with temples on top, more similar to the Mesopotamian ziggurat than the Egyptian pyramid. The largest pyramid by volume is the Great Pyramid of Cholula, in the Mexican state of Puebla. There is an unusual pyramid with a circular plan at the site of Cuilcuilco, now inside Mexico City and mostly covered with lava from an ancient eruption of Xictli.\n\nThere are other pyramid-shaped ancient monuments found in parts of Asia.\n\nPyramids were also found in Greece. One of these pyramids in Greece is older than the pyramid of Cheops, as it was dated to 2720 BC.\n\nThere is a pyramid in ancient Rome. The 27-meter-high Pyramid of Cestius was built by the end of the first century BC and still exists today, close to the Porta San Paolo.\n\nThere are quite a few flat-top pyramids in China. The First Emperor of Qin (221 B.C.~), with the terracotta warriors in vicinity, was burried under a large pyramid outside modern day Xi'an. In the following centuries a dozen more Chinese royalties of Han Dynasty were also burried under flat top pyramidal earth works.\n\nIn October 2005, archaeologist Semir Osmanagic announced that a hill near the Bosnian town of Visoko conceals a pyramid 100 metres high and perhaps 12,000 years old. If confirmed, this would be the oldest pyramid in Europe, as well as the world.\n\nModern pyramids\n \nA modern pyramid, built as a feature and as an entrance to the Louvre Art Gallery. \n \nThe CSU Long Beach Pyramid. An example of a modern pyramid can be found in Paris, France, in front of the Louvre Museum.\n\nThe 32-story Pyramid Arena in Memphis, Tennessee (built 1991) was the home court for the University of Memphis men's basketball program, and the National Basketball Association's Memphis Grizzlies until 2004.\n\nThe Walter Pyramid, home of the basketball and volleyball teams of the California State University, Long Beach, campus in California, United States, is an 18-story-tall blue pyramid.\n\nThe Luxor Hotel in Las Vegas, United States, is a 30-story pyramid." +Why can i not get my finances \nstraight even with 2 good jobs?,"The biggest reason is that finances are 90% behavior and 10% math.

With the front of your body bent forward as much as you can, take the glass of water, raise your head up (while keeping your body bent forward) and drink the glass of water. It looks strange, but it works, every time I've ever tried it. If you have malignant hiccups....those lasting for days at a time, then go to your doctor and ask for some Thorazine. It is an anti-psychotic medication, but it works for those nasty hiccups that refuse to go away.

But the industry usually generates almost half of its annual sales during the holiday quarter. \n\nFor the month of October, U.S. sales of just gaming devices increased 5.6% to $132.5 million from $125.5 million the previous year. But gaming software sales dragged the industry, taking a significant dive of nearly 24% to $364.9 million from $478.9 million last year. \n\nNPD entertainment industry analyst Anita Frazier attributed part of the decline to the phenomenal sales last year of the hit game Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, which alone generated $100 million in sales within its first month of release in October 2004. \n\nWeaker sales were also likely affected by a general economic malaise, some burnout from annual versions of franchise games, and holdouts in anticipation of Microsoft Corp.'s Xbox 360 console, due to hit store shelves on Nov. 22, Frazier said. \n\nIn addition, the marketplace is getting crowded with multiple options of consoles and handheld gadgets aimed at satisfying the game-playing public. \n\nThe number of people owning more than one game device is on the rise, Frazier said. However, each purchase of a piece of hardware is no longer necessarily from a new gaming customer, but likely from someone who already owns a bunch of games that work on a different device, thus potentially thinning software sales. \n\nStill, Frazier expects the video game industry to end the year with record sales overall, compared to the peak of $10.3 billion made in 2002. The industry usually generates almost half of its annual sales during the holiday quarter, and sales from January through October is already up nearly 9%, at $6.3 billion, compared to $5.8 billion during the same period last year, Frazier said." +Where can I get one of those cars that get 350 miles per gallon I keep hearing about?,"My dad had one.

Under his leadership, the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) became the ruling party of Mainland China as the result of its victory over Chinese Nationalists, the KMT, in the Chinese Civil War. On October 1, 1949, Mao declared the formation of the People's Republic of China at Tiananmen Square.\n\nMao is widely credited for creating a mostly unified China free of foreign domination for the first time since the Opium Wars. However, critics point out that Mao's ineffective economic policies in conjunction with the Three Years of Natural Disasters caused the massive famine of 1959–1961. Mao has also been criticized for his contribution to the Sino-Soviet Split, his establishment of a one-party dictatorship, and initiating the disastrous Cultural Revolution.\n\nMao Zedong is sometimes referred to as Chairman Mao.

For example, presentational attributes such as align, background, bgcolor, border (for images and objects), clear, color, face, hspace and many others are allowed in Transitional, but not in Strict. Using Strict also forces developers to structure and mark up content more thoughtfully as you cannot have inline content directly inside the body, blockquote or form elements. \n\nThe bottom line is that each developer has to make their own choices." +were can i download the latest movies for free?,Please check this:\nhttp://www.downloadanymovie.com/g/c/movies/f/ +How many different religions are there in existence today?,"There are about 21 major world religions today.

Even though the Old Icelandic language in which much of Old Norse literature is written is not the same variety of Old Norse spoken by these settlers of England, it is close enough to give us an idea of the words that were borrowed into English. Thus we can cite the Old Icelandic word hreinn, which means ""reindeer,"" as the source of the first part of the English word.

Not 2 new moons. There's only been one full moon this month. there will be, however, two new moons. one was on the 1st and the other will be the 31st.... the full moon happened on December 15th.\n\nA ""Blue Moon"" is the name given to the second full moon in a calendar month. Because there are roughly 29.5 days between full moons, it is unusual for two full moons to ""fit"" into a 30 or 31 day month (and impossible to fit into a 28 or 29 day month, so February can never have a Blue Moon). The saying ""Once in a Blue Moon"" means a rare occurrence, and predates the current astronomical use of the term, which is quite recent. In fact, Blue Moons are not all that rare, on average there will be one Blue Moon every 2.5 years. After 1999, the next Blue Moons will be in November 2001; July 2004; and June 2007. The last one before 1999 was in July 1996. \nThe term Blue Moon is believed to have originated in 1883 after the eruption of Krakatoa. The volcano put so much dust in the atmosphere that the Moon actually looked blue in color. This was so unusual that the term ""once in a Blue Moon"" was coined. However, Blue Moon was also used in much the same way we use the term ""Harvest Moon"". There were twelve names for full moons, one for each month, and the name Blue Moon was used in years which had 13 full moons. It referred to the third full moon of the four occuring between an equinox and solstice in that year. A misinterpretation of this led to a Sky and Telescope Magazine ""Star Quiz"" in July 1943 followed by an article in March 1946 which stated that the second full moon in any calendar month was called a Blue Moon (attributed to the 1937 Maine Farmers' Almanac), and this definition has now become part of the language. \n\nIn January and March of 1999, we had a situation which only takes place about four times a century: two Blue Moons occurring in the same year. The last time this happened was in January and April of 1961 and it will not happen again until January and March of 2018. A double Blue Moon most commonly occurs in January/March but is also possible in January/April or January/May and only when there is no full moon at all in February. It is also possible to have a Blue Moon in December of one year and March of the next year, again, there is no full moon in the intervening February. \n\nThat might have been way more info than you wanted, but now you know... and knowing is half the battle." +CAN I ASK ONE MORE QUESTION TODAY?,You just did !!!!!!!!!!!!! +In CMOS the SATA gives me 2 options...

The word also bears connotations to creativity (Gestaltung). In English gestalt refers to the concept where an entity's properties cannot be discovered from the total properties of its parts. The more general English equivalents are synergy, holism, emergence, and variations on the phrase ""the whole is greater than the sum of its parts"".\n\nLook up gestalt in Wiktionary, the free dictionary.In psychology, Gestalt can refer to: \nGestalt psychology (Gestalt theory), and Gestalt Theoretical Psychotherapy \nGestalt therapy \nThe Gestalt effect \nGestalt was also the name of an environment-query function in Mac OS. \nGestalt is also a term used in Dungeons and Dragons to represent a warrior/arcane mage multiclass combination or character concept, although the term can be more generally used to describe when the features of two or more classes are combined to create a 'mixed' class at first level (also known as taking apprentice levels). In Dungeons and Dragons v3.5, gestalt is a variant rule from the sourcebook Unearthed Arcana which allows a character to simultaneously take two classes at once, gaining the abilities and strengths of both. \nFans of the Transformers (and to some degree Hasbro) use the term gestalt to refer to teams of robots which can combine together to form one large robot which is ""stronger than the sum of its parts"". \nAuthor Theodore Sturgeon (February 26, 1918 - May 8, 1985) referred to the term gestalt in his book More Than Human (Farrar & Straus, 1953. International Fantasy Award) to describe a series of characters that together created ""a greater being"", also implying that this was the next stage in human evolution. Nonetheless the different people that formed the gestalt could be changed for another person with similar characteristics (for example, a person that performed as a ""head"" could be exchanged for another person as long as he was able to be a ""head"" and was accepted in the gestalt). \nThis is a disambiguation page — a list of articles associated with the same title. If an internal link referred you to this page, you may wish to change the link to point directly to the intended article.\n(disambiguation). \nLook up Zeitgeist in Wiktionary, the free dictionaryZeitgeist is originally a German expression that means ""the spirit (Geist) of the time (Zeit)"". It denotes the intellectual and cultural climate of an era. Volksgeist has similar meaning. Zeitgeist is still used in German, while Volksgeist is not.\n\nThe concept of Zeitgeist goes back to the German philosopher Johann Gottfried Herder. In 1769 he wrote a critique of the work Genius seculi by the philologist Christian Adolph Klotz (German Wikipedia article) and introduced the word Zeitgeist into German as a translation of genius seculi (Latin: genius - ""guardian spirit"" and saeculi - ""of the century"").\n\nZeitgeist has achieved a unique status among German loanwords in other tongues, having found an entrance into English, Spanish, Dutch and even Japanese.\n\nIt is a term that refers to the ethos of a cohort of people, that spans one or more subsequent generations, who despite their diverse age and socio-economic background experience a certain worldview, which is prevalent at a particular period of socio-cultural progression. Zeitgeist is the experience of a dominant cultural climate that defines, particularly in Hegelian thinking, an era in the dialectical progression of a people or the world at large.\n\n[edit]\nQuotations\nWhoever marries the zeitgeist will be a widower soon. - August Everding (German Wikipedia" +how can u tell if sumone on Yahoo Answers Beta is lying to u?,"well theyre lying if their name is sevensix2x51.. that's for sure.. also if their answer doesn't make sense or makes you feel depressed, or if it's really funny. also maybe you're not asking the right question, like on irobot.." +"What is a ""CRT"" monitor?","CRT is a ""Cathode Ray Tube"" CRT displays have been used up until recently for everything from TV sets to computer displays.

If VERY high, it can cause headaches and other problems." +What is a Doctor of Osteopathic medicin?,"An M.D. is a physician, a medical doctor educated in medical school. A D.O. is a doctor of osteopathy, educated in an osteopathic school. Historically, the osteopaths learned skills in manipulation of the body as a treatment for musculoskeletal conditions in addition to more traditional medical and scientific coursework. They had separate licensing requirements and separate hospitals. \n\nDOs and MDs are alike in many ways:\n\n* Applicants to both DO and MD colleges typically have a four-year undergraduate degree with an emphasis on science courses.\n\n* Both DOs and MDs complete four years of basic medical education.\n\n* After medical school, both DOs and MDs can choose to practice in a specialty area of medicine—such as psychiatry, surgery, obstetrics, or sports medicine—after completing a residency program (typically two to six years of additional training).\n\n* Both DOs and MDs must pass comparable state licensing examinations.\n\n* DOs and MDs both practice in fully accredited and licensed hospitals and medical centers.\n\n* Both are medical doctors; MD is specifically Doctor of Medicine and DO is Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine.\n\nWhat Makes DOs Different?\n\n* DOs can perform surgery, child delivery, treat patients, and prescribe medications in hospitals and clinic settings.\n\n* DOs look at the ""total person."" Osteopathic physicians focus on preventive care. Instead of just treating specific symptoms or illnesses, they look at the whole body.\n\n* DOs receive extra training in the musculoskeletal system, which is comprised of the nerves, muscles, and bones. This training gives DOs a better understanding of how an injury or illness in one part of the body can affect another part of the body; therefore, DOs have a therapeutic and diagnostic advantage.\n\n* DOs use what is called osteopathic manipulative treatment (OMT). OMT is a technique in which the DOs use their hands to diagnose injury and illness, giving special attention to the joints, bones, muscles, and nerves. Manipulations improve circulation, which in turn, creates a normal nerve and blood supply, enabling the body to heal itself." +What would make conservitive republicans very mad?,Imagining President Hillary Rodham Clinton's SECOND term :-) +I had a small bump on my chest that inches and i scratched it and it turned dark and spreaded larger. what co,You definately need to go see a dermatologist.

But Randles doesn't want to make comfortable art. His paintings and sculptures explore contradictions, and that upsets some people. And while he doesn't intend to disturb, Randles can't ignore the ambiguities of life in his work. ""If it's not happy art, I'm sorry,"" he says. \nRandles's pieces have caused a furor more than once. In 1989, Artquake, a Portland exhibition, accepted his work and then refused to show it. He was expelled from the University of Oregon's Masters of Fine Arts program for, he claims, ""political incorrectitude."" He admits that the work he had been doing at the time was ""testy,"" but he says another factor in the expulsion was that he was creating too much art--12 exhibitions in five months. Laura Alpert, head of the fine arts department, would not comment on Randles's expulsion. \n\nSix years later, Randles is still actively creating and showing art. For the third time, one of his sculptures has been selected to travel in the Shoebox Sculpture Exhibition, a prestigious two-year international exhibition of small sculptures organized by the University of Hawaii. He also has a show on display at Chemeketa Community College in Salem, Oregon. \n\nRandles is a former National Endowment for the Arts Artist in Residence in Eugene. He’s been creating art for 34 years, and he's held a variety of jobs: army officer, sailor, ski instructor, farm owner, cattle rancher, sailing teacher. ""You live long enough, and all sorts of things happen,"" he says. His life hasn't been like most, but in his work he tries to express parts of his personal experience that are universal. ""In my art, I try to find a common bond between my life and others',"" he says. He is more concerned with substance than any particular style, though much of his work depicts human and animal forms. A multimedia artist whose artistic ideas are driven by the materials he finds and uses, Randles describes himself as ""a person who makes work out of junk."" For example, his current series of paintings, called ""Unspecified Figures From the Burden of Physics,"" is built from layer upon layer of discarded dressmaker's patterns papier-mâchéd to canvas. \n\nThe paintings address issues of oppression, stereotyping and control. The unified, androgynous forms in the pieces resemble DNA double helixes and are captured in the geometry of the dress patterns. Randles says the figures and their placement in the paintings speak about the human condition and humanity's tendency for putting people in a box. \n\n""Once we invented the rectangle, we managed to box and cube everything and everybody,"" he says. ""The rectangle is not found in nature, but it's man's single worst invention. It has him trapped."" \n\nRandles avoids cultural traps by relying on his independent vision. He says that when people today search for something to believe in, they should look inside themselves for a reason to exist. ""Don't look for it from society,"" he says. ""With six billion people on the planet, no one individual is needed.""" +"what is the best way to go abaut dating a leady in canada,and do you it is possible ?","By impressing her by your spell checking abilities, for example. \n\nLadies love truly original persons.

It doesnt matter if you wear contacts or not. But, on the flip side, you might need to see a doctor beacause the tear ducts might be a bit small on your eyes so its a bit difficult to get moisture. What they do is shoot a laser right at the tear duct to open it up a bit. This is done almost painlessly. Its a slight burn for about an hour or two. At most it would be there till the next morning.

The curve shows how much of each product is produced in the market (or by a particular firm). The curve changes based on the invention of new technologies and resources. Sometimes the advent of new technology and resources favors the production of only one type of product, and therefore a disproportionate amount of that product will be produced (causing the curve to favor that product). Other times, the two products are produced in equal amounts. Here is a textbook definition:\n""A curve showing all combinations of two goods that can be produced with the resources and technology currently available.""" +how to treat an ear infection?,"Hi! I'm an Audiologist and work in an Ear, Nose and Throat Doctors' office. There are different kinds of ear infections. Swimmers ear is in the external ear canal and is typically treated with ear drops and keeping the ear dry. \n\n A middle ear infection is a build-up of fluid behind the eardrum and often accompanies a head cold, or in young children can occur during teething, or in infancy can even happen if the baby is bottle fed while laying flat. To relieve the discomfort, OTC pain relievers are usually recommended, and it often helps to apply heat, such as a hot water bottle, against the ear. If accompanied by fever, antibiotics are often prescribed and it is VERY important to administer them properly for the full dosage to ensure that ALL the bacteria have been killed. Otherwise, the bacteria can regrow and may become resistant to the milder antibiotics. \n\n If the infections keep coming back, or if the fluid doesn't drain even after the antibiotics have killed the bacteria, surgical options may be considered. This is especially true in the case of young children, if the decrease in hearing is not resolving because it can effect the child's speech development. The surgeon makes an incision in the eardrum, draws out the fluid, cleans the middle ear space, and usually places a tube through the incision. The tube simply maintains an opening through the ear drum to maintain equal air pressure in the middle ear. Most tubes are designed to fall out of the eardrum as the healing process occurs -- usually about six months after surgery. The surgery is very common and is done as a same-day procedure in most cases, only because the space is so small that the patient must be very still. With adults, many specialists will perform the surgery in their office using only a local anestetic. If the child snores a lot or has other trouble breathing or frequent sore throats then inflammed or enlarged adenoids or tonsils may be blocking the Eustacian tube and preventing the fluid from draining.\n\n My son had chronic ear infections as an infant, even though he was breastfed and I was diligent about administering his medications properly. His father had ear infections his whole life, so I guess he just inherited the tendancy for ear infections from his dad. His first set of tubes was around his first birthday. The hardest part was not feeding him before and after -- he was so mad and he didn't understand. Another set of tubes and an adenoisectomy were done when he was five. Then he started getting frequent throat ifections so we had to remove the tonsils a couple years later. He's now 14 and only gets earaches occasionally.\n\n An inner ear infection often causes dizziness and sometimes ringing in the ear and/or sudden hearing loss. If there is a sudden onset of such symptoms it is important to see a specialist ASAP, because the sooner one starts treatment, the better the cance of recovery." +Where is Haiti?,"The Republic of Haiti is a country situated on the western third of the island of Hispaniola and the smaller islands of La Gonâve, La Tortue (Tortuga), Les Cayemites, and Ile a Vache in the Caribbean Sea, east of Cuba ; Haiti shares Hispaniola with the Dominican Republic.\n\nBasically it's between Cuba and the dominican republic in the caribbean." +What place will the Red Sox finish in the American League East?,"Second to last, right above the yankees if all goes well!" +what are your thoughts about God and why?,God is the best because he created everything and he sent his only son down to earth to save the sins of everybody!

However, this was the era of many blondes, notably Marilyn Monroe, and for the next ten years Lola Albright continued to work primarily in secondary roles in more than twenty films including several 'B' Westerns. As well, she acted in guest roles on a number of television series.\n\nIn 1958 Lola Albright earned the part of 'Edie Hart' in the trend-setting Peter Gunn television series produced by Blake Edwards and directed by Robert Altman with theme music that made Henry Mancini famous. In it, she played a nightclub singer who was the romantic interest of the ""super-cool"" private detective 'Peter Gunn' played by Craig Stevens.

Be prepared to search, scan, and experiment with search terms, as we did, to discover the nifty bit of facial anatomy called the philtrum. \nWe began our search with the language of your question and then tried variations: \n\n""area between your nose and mouth with the two vertical lines"" \n""indentation between your nose and mouth"" \n""vertical indentation above the mouth below the nose"" \nThese search results were frustrating and mostly unproductive. We found advice for portrait painters and recommendations for those considering facial plastic surgery or body piercing. So we were relieved when one particular search query -- ""indentation above the lip below the nose"" -- came up with a link to Metafilter, a lively and popular ""community blog"" where a collection of civilized people gather to discuss diverse interests. \n\nIn the midst of a conversation about beards, mustaches, and facial hair, somebody asked your question: ""...does anyone know what you call the area between the upper lip and the nose where, er, the moustache grows?"" Another participant offered the answer: philtrum (and quoted their source). \n\nOnce we'd discovered the correct term, we searched again on the word itself, to double-check and verify the definition. \n\nHere's a detailed definition from the MEDLINEplus Medical Encyclopedia, provided by the U.S. National Library of Health: \n\nThe philtrum is the midline groove in the upper lip that runs from the top of the lip to the nose. The way the philtrum appears is determined genetically. \nWe were especially glad to find this authoritative medical definition because neither of our usual online dictionaries -- the American Heritage Dictionary from Yahoo! Reference and the Merriam Webster Online -- had it listed. We also found a definitive Lip-Philtrum Guide, designed for use by medical professionals, that illustrates a variety of philtrums from the highly dimpled to the almost smooth." +I have Benign Non-Essential Tremors & I can't find any information on it.

This begs the question, how do we know that diamonds are indeed carbon? Surprisingly, this has been known for over 200 years. In 1772 (before the signing of the Declaration of Independence) a talented French chemist, Antoine Lavoisier, burned diamond (ca. 150 milligrams) in a sealed container. Diamonds do not burn readily, so Lavoisier used the high heat provided by a large lens placed in the sunlight. By a simple analysis of the gases produced by burning, Lavoisier determined that the gas we now know as CO2 was produced. Furthermore, the same amount of this gas was produced when 150 milligrams of amorphous carbon in the form of charcoal was burned. Thus, Lavoisier concluded that charcoal and diamond are the same. However Lavoisier was reluctant to publicize such a radical and counterintuitive result. It took more than 20 years before Lavoisier's conclusions were confirmed by Tenant, an English chemist. Let us examine Lavoisier's conclusion in the context of the times. Lavoisier's discovery predated Dalton's formulation that all matter is made of elements by 29 years and Mendeleev's formulation of the periodic table by almost 100 years. Our modern understanding of chemistry allows us to formulate Lavoisier's experiments in a compact way, the chemical equation.\n\n\n\n\n\nThese equations indicate that burning either diamond or graphite causes the bonds of the reactants (the carbon material and dioxygen) to be rearranged to form the product (CO2) and energy in the form of heat. In general, a chemical reaction involves changes in the bonding between atoms in going from reactants to products. Let's contrast these combustion equations with the analogous equation for burning buckyballs.\n\n\n\nNote how the buckyball equation has a subscript of 60 on the carbon, indicating that this form of carbon is molecular. As a result, 60 dioxygen molecules are required to convert the sixty atoms of carbon in each buckyball into 60 molecules of CO2. In a proper, balanced chemical equation the number and types of atoms on the reactant (left) side of the equation equal those on the product (right) side. Because heat is released in this chemical reaction, heat is written as a product. Reactions that generate heat are called exothermic.\n\n\nHope this is enough." +"i am looking for a free program to make gif files which is easy to use, please help :)?","Try GIMP at http://www.gimp.org/\nThis is a complete image editing software that is nearly as good as Photoshop, but free." +I applied for the America Visa Lottery.

If we distribute all the exposed land evenly among all mankind, 133 people would have to share one square mile. What that means is that every single person on Earth, man woman and child would have close to five acres of land for his or her use. More precisely, each person would get 209,000 square feet of land, or a square plot of land 457 feet on each side. \n\nNot all this land can be used beneficially however. A significant portion of the Earth's exposed land is unhabitable or cannot be used for any agricultural purpose. Large portions lie in the far north. Large portions are extremely arid. Large portions are very mountainous. In sum, only about one fourth of all the land on earth, or somewhat more than 12 million square miles, is arable. \n\nToday, over half of the arable land in the world is in fact not under cultivation. Bringing the unused land into service in many cases would require huge investments of money and effort, and would do considerable damage to the environment. For example, only about 28% of the arable land on the African continent is used for growing crops. Immense tracts of forests or jungles would have to be cleared to bring the rest of the arable land on that continent to productive use. \n\nThus, only about one eighth of each imaginary plot of land distributed to each person is land which is under cultivation. In effect, each person has a piece of land about 26,000 square feet (a square 161 feet on each side or just a bit more than ½ an acre) at his or her disposal on which to grow all that he or she needs." +Is glass considered a solid or a liquid?,"Glass is an amorphous solid, meaning it does not have a crystalline structure, like most solids.

If you are getting the phone calls on your cell phone then you’re not as lucky. Unlike landline phones, cell phone companies don't currently offer Anonymous Call Rejection service. If the person that is calling you happens to be blocking their number then there isn’t much you can do. However, if the person that is calling you is not blocking their number then you can just keep your phone from ringing when they call. All you have to do is add the person's phone number in your cell phone's address book, and then set the custom ring for that person to silent. This means that your phone will ring normally for your calls, but stay silent when that person you are trying to avoid calls.

A Call represents the right of the holder to buy stock. A Put represents the right of the holder to sell stock. \n\nCall Options\nA Call option is a contract that gives the buyer the right to buy 100 shares of an underlying stock at a predetermined price (the strike price) for a preset period of time. The seller of a Call option is obligated to sell the underlying security if the Call buyer exercises his or her option to buy on or before the option expiration date. For example, an American-style WXYZ Corporation May 60 Call entitles the buyer to purchase 100 shares of WXYZ Corporation common stock at $60 per share at any time prior to the option's expiration date in May.\n\nPut Options\nA Put option is a contract that gives the buyer the right to sell 100 shares of an underlying stock at a predetermined price for a preset time period. The seller of a Put option is obligated to buy the underlying security if the Put buyer exercises his or her option to sell on or before the option expiration date. Likewise, an American-style WXYZ Corporation. May 60 Put entitles the buyer to sell 100 shares of WXYZ Corp. common stock at $60 per share at any time prior to the option's expiration date in May.\n\nThe Expiration Process\nAt any given time, an option can be bought or sold with one of four expiration dates. This is indicated by a month and year description. The expiration date is the last day an option exists. For listed stock options, this is the Saturday following the third Friday of the expiration month. Please note that this is the deadline by which brokerage firms must submit exercise notices. You should ask your firm to explain its exercise procedures including any deadline the firm may have for exercise instructions on the last trading day before expiration. \n\nExercising the Option\nOptions traders don’t actually have to buy or sell the underlying shares that are associated with their options. They can and often do simply opt to resell their options - or ""trade out of their options positions"".

The rules are set to encourage people to go to the stadium/arena to watch the game (increases revenue from concessions, souveneirs, etc.). Without these rules, nearly everyone would watch the games on TV, thus hurting revenue (though they'd have more commercials to compensate for the lack of people attending the games). \nI'm assuming this is like NHL Center Ice on either satellite or cable, and they use the local feeds in most cases (though I do know ""National"" televised games have been blacked out in the location of the game if the venue hasn't been declared ""Sold Out.""\nIn addition, some venues will have different numbers for capacity (usually physical and ""sell-out"").

What my mother did with me was to inform me of the consequences if I did something & then she carried it out...consistency is the only way to deal with this. I was an only child so I had just about everything a kid could want in my room. When I was bad, I was not allowed to play in my room; instead being relegated to the end of the couch in the living room where she could keep an eye on me while she went about her daily chores. There was nothing in this world that I hated more than being made to sit at the end of that couch because there was no TV, no radio, no nothing. I was told that, if I put even one foot on the floor & didn't sit there like a little lady, I would get a spanking...it worked wonders.\n\nAs for sharing - if your daughter has a problem with it - try the following. If I refused to share a toy with a little friend, my mother would take it from me. She'd put it away for later but she would tell me that if I didn't learn to share, she was going to give them away. It was just my mother's luck, I guess, that soon after this first incident, a friend of mine was having a birthday party & my mother had gotten her something that I also had & she knew the girl particularly liked. While it is true that she had to take me home from the party early because I launched into a screaming & crying fit (thinking the girl had been given my toy), you can bet that I learned that lesson immediately :) It wasn't until I was in my thirties that the subject came up one day & Mom realized what was behind my little fit...not fun to have your parent laugh at you when you are an adult :)\n\nBTW, a friend of mine uses a variation of the sitting on the couch routine when her child is bad. Difference is, she makes her kid sit on the sofa with the computer, radio & television all in the same room & turned off...drives her daughter crazy. Another friend has a kid who loves video games &, when he is being difficult, she takes them away & lets his brother play them in the other room; within the child's hearing. I, personally, think this is a little mean & somewhat harsh, but it seems to work for her son.\n\nI think that is really the trick to getting them to behave in that every kid is different & you have to find out what gets under their skin. Its not to be mean, of course, it is so that you have that leverage that you need to keep them in line. I can assure you that by the time & was six or seven, my mother only need look at me in a particular way & I would not only shut my mouth, but immediately try to make myself invisible. At the same time, I never lived in fear of her...only of her being angry with me...big difference...\n\nGood luck!" +how does computer data transfer from one network to another network?,"In a basic rundown, it uses packets.

The mouth stretches wide and the lungs inhale deeply, bringing oxygen into the lungs and thence to the bloodstream. \n\n\nIt is almost certain however, that this hypothesis is not correct; a more recent theory is that yawning is used for regulation of body temperature. \n\n\nAnother theory is that yawns are caused by the same chemicals (neurotransmitters) in the brain that affect emotions, mood, appetite and other phenomena. These chemicals include serotonin, dopamine, glutamic acid and nitric oxide. \nAs more of these compounds are activated in the brain, the frequency of yawning increases. Conversely, a greater presence in the brain of opiate neurotransmitters such as endorphins, reduces the frequency of yawning." +why is the date and time wrong when i sign on yahoo?,Go to the Options section in Yahoo Mail (or wherever you have your profile) and select the correct Time Zone that you are in. +I need to Know what are the sites that the users acessing through ISA 2000?,"Well on our ISA server there is a directory called C:\Program Files\Microsoft ISA Server\ISALogs that holds all the traffic it has seen passing through and details IP, Destination url/IP, date/time, type of browser etc etc.\n\nCheers" +how do you improve your voice.. i mean in singing..?,"if you are serious, taking lessons from someone who has been professionally trained is a must" +How much should you tip a waiter/waitress?,"How much you should tip at a restaurant depends on these factors: the size of your party, the class of the restaurant, and the quality of the service.

(In fact I should be doing this!)" +why is the sky blue?,"this question has been asked 111 times!!!\n\nthe last answer was:\n\nThe first steps towards correctly explaining the colour of the sky were taken by John Tyndall in 1859. He discovered that when light passes through a clear fluid holding small particles in suspension, the shorter blue wavelengths are scattered more strongly than the red. This can be demonstrated by shining a beam of white light through a tank of water with a little milk or soap mixed in. From the side, the beam can be seen by the blue light it scatters; but the light seen directly from the end is reddened after it has passed through the tank. The scattered light can also be shown to be polarised using a filter of polarised light, just as the sky appears a deeper blue through polaroid sun glasses.\n\nThis is most correctly called the Tyndall effect, but it is more commonly known to physicists as Rayleigh scattering--after Lord Rayleigh, who studied it in more detail a few years later. He showed that the amount of light scattered is inversely proportional to the fourth power of wavelength for sufficiently small particles. It follows that blue light is scattered more than red light by a factor of (700/400)4 ~= 10.\n\nDust or Molecules?\nTyndall and Rayleigh thought that the blue colour of the sky must be due to small particles of dust and droplets of water vapour in the atmosphere. Even today, people sometimes incorrectly say that this is the case. Later scientists realised that if this were true, there would be more variation of sky colour with humidity or haze conditions than was actually observed, so they supposed correctly that the molecules of oxygen and nitrogen in the air are sufficient to account for the scattering. The case was finally settled by Einstein in 1911, who calculated the detailed formula for the scattering of light from molecules; and this was found to be in agreement with experiment. He was even able to use the calculation as a further verification of Avogadro's number when compared with observation. The molecules are able to scatter light because the electromagnetic field of the light waves induces electric dipole moments in the molecules.\n\nWhy not violet?\nIf shorter wavelengths are scattered most strongly, then there is a puzzle as to why the sky does not appear violet, the colour with the shortest visible wavelength. The spectrum of light emission from the sun is not constant at all wavelengths, and additionally is absorbed by the high atmosphere, so there is less violet in the light. Our eyes are also less sensitive to violet. That's part of the answer; yet a rainbow shows that there remains a significant amount of visible light coloured indigo and violet beyond the blue. The rest of the answer to this puzzle lies in the way our vision works. We have three types of colour receptors, or cones, in our retina. They are called red, blue and green because they respond most strongly to light at those wavelengths. As they are stimulated in different proportions, our visual system constructs the colours we see.\n\n\nResponse curves for the three types of cone in the human eye\n\nWhen we look up at the sky, the red cones respond to the small amount of scattered red light, but also less strongly to orange and yellow wavelengths. The green cones respond to yellow and the more strongly-scattered green and green-blue wavelengths. The blue cones are stimulated by colours near blue wavelengths which are very strongly scattered. If there were no indigo and violet in the spectrum, the sky would appear blue with a slight green tinge. However, the most strongly scattered indigo and violet wavelengths stimulate the red cones slightly as well as the blue, which is why these colours appear blue with an added red tinge. The net effect is that the red and green cones are stimulated about equally by the light from the sky, while the blue is stimulated more strongly. This combination accounts for the pale sky blue colour.

Only a licensed, trained medical person can perform surgery too.\n\nThere is more than one type of fissure. Since you did not give specifics of what part of the body is involved, I am including a Wikipedia link that lists a lot of different kinds of fissures.\n\nThere are other treaments besides surgury for fissures.

Some treatments sound very simple and very non-traumatic, in fact.\n\nI recommend reading all of the Sources I have listed. They will probably do much to set your mind at ease and explain what a fissure is and ways they can be treated.

Historically, the term was probably influenced by Gothic haiþi ""dwelling on the heath"", appearing as haiþno in Ulfilas' bible as ""gentile woman,"" (translating the Greek in Mark 7:26). This translation probably influenced by Latin paganus, ""country dweller"", or it was chosen because of its similarity to the Greek ethne, ""gentile"". It has even been suggested that Gothic haiþi is not related to ""heath"" at all, but rather a loan from Armenian hethanos, itself loaned from Greek ethnos.\n\nWhile\n\nPagan\nThe term pagan is from Latin paganus, an adjective originally meaning ""rural"", ""rustic"" or ""of the country."" As a noun, paganus was used to mean ""country dweller, villager."" From its earliest beginnings, Christianity spread much more quickly in major urban areas (like Antioch, Alexandria, Corinth, Rome) than in the countryside (in fact, the early church was almost entirely urban), and soon the word for ""country dweller"" became synonymous with someone who was ""not a Christian,"" giving rise to the modern meaning of ""pagan.""\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paganism#Pagan\n\nPagan classifications\nPagan subdivisions coined by Isaac Bonewits [2]\n\n * Paleo-Paganism: A retronym coined to contrast with ""neopaganism"", denoting a pagan culture that has not been disrupted by other cultures. \n * Meso-Paganism: A group, which is, or has been, significantly influenced by monotheistic, dualistic, or nontheistic worldviews, but has been able to maintain an independence of religious practices. \n * Neo-Paganism: An attempt by modern people to reconnect with nature, pre-Christian religions, or other nature-based spiritual paths.

He did this by observing slight deviations in the expected orbit of Neptune. (The same process has allowed astronomers and mathematicians to predict the existence and location of Neptune based on slight irregularities in the orbit of Uranus.)\n\nLowell looked, but died before anything was found. Clyde Tombaugh resumed the search. By this time the mystery planet was called ""Planet X."" Eventually Tombaugh did discover a new planet, Pluto, but it was smaller than expected and not where Lowell had predicted. It is likely that Lowell was simply wrong and Tombaugh got lucky...\n\n...sort of. We now know that there are many objects in the far reaches of the solar system (beyond the orbit of Neptune) which are the inner part of the Kuiper belt. One of these has been found to be larger than Pluto.\n\nSo, while Pluto (Planet X) retains official planet status, it is largely for historical reasons. Had we discovered Pluto in the 1990s and not 1930s it is likely Pluto would never had been classified as a planet.\n\nHowever, it is possible that there is a large, say, Neptune-sized, object out there. Some evidence for this can be found in the distribution of Kuiper objects. But it is still very uncertain. Such a distance planet, could be called Planet 10, or, for roman numeral fans, Planet X. Such a large distant object would be very faint and move only slowly across the sky (making it hard to distinguish from a star).\n\nAnother meaning for ""Planet X"" is a Nibiru, a fictional planet based on one person's faulty knowledge of Sumerian artifacts, which has been taken up by various new age and pseudo-science looney groups. A couple of years ago ""Nibiru"" was supposed to pass close to Earth leading to floods, earthquakes, death, destruction, yadda yadda yadda. This ""prediction"" being based on one woman's (Nancy Lieder) telepathic communications with various aliens.\n\nJust as an aside, Ms. Lieder's aliens also told her that the Hale-Bopp comet of a few years ago - which lead to the suicide of one band of cult members - was just a ""star."" To make sure she wasn't swayed by actual observations of the cometary tale and motion across the sky she simply refused to look at it.

Einstein once said that nothing can move faster than light, and this previously was an accepted truth because visible light was considered to be just a wave of energy. However, when studying how light reacts to strong gravitational pulls, such as one from a black hole, we can see that it bends under gravity. This indicates that it shares some characteristics with matter. It could even have a minute amount of mass. If light shares characterisitcs with matter, then we can harness it and use it the same way we do air in a jet engine. Can we not go faster than the wind naturally blows with a jet engine? Yes. Then I do not see why we can't go faster than light when harnessing light itself as energy. There have been several questions like this, and I really feel that traveling faster than lightspeed is only decades away." +did andy roddick really sink a tennis ball into the court i.e. in that powerade commercial?,no i think not.as far as i am concerned i have not seen it. and he is not so powerfull not even in a ad +Where is the old machine name is stored?

In 1961 the Antarctic Treaty was signed by these nations and others and these territorial claims put aside in the interests of international cooperation in scientific research.\n\nSystematic exploration and scientific investigation of Antarctica properly began with the International Geophysical Year (IGY). July 1st 1957 to December 31st 1958. 35 scientific stations were established on the Antarctic continent with another 15 on sub Antarctic islands by 12 different nations during the IGY.\n\nThe IGY was such a success that the benefits of international co-operation seemed well worth continuing. The IGY was therefore followed by a year of International Geophysical Cooperation when the 12 nations (Argentina, Australia, Belgium, Chile, France, Japan, New Zealand, Norway, South Africa, USA, USSR and the United Kingdom) decided to continue their research. Representatives of the 12 nations met in Washington, D.C. in 1959 to draft and sign the Antarctic Treaty. This agreement dedicated the entire continent to peaceful scientific investigation. It came into effect in 1961 and all territorial claims were suspended. In 1991, 24 nations approved a protocol (addition) to the treaty that would ban oil and other mineral exploration for at least 50 years.\n\nThe answer to ""Who owns Antarctica"" is ""no-one and everyone""." +What is a creative but inexpensive date?,"Gosh, what does she like to do?

It takes what you know and makes it alien, so have a camera or no one will believe you!" +Why do Americans believe Iraq has anything to do with Terrorism or 911?,"My theories:\n\n1. It's easier to believe that Iraq had something to do with 911 than to really understand the complexities of the modern world. To fully understand the fact that Iraq had nothing to do with 911, you would have to constantly be on top of current events and know quite a bit about history. Most people don't even approach an even basic understanding or awareness of current events, so their sense of reality is crude. \n\n2. Some people are in denial about the Iraq War. The idea that their pain and grief over 911 may have been cynically manipulated by their government is too painful. So it's easier to believe that there really was a basis for going to war.\n\n3. America no longer has an objective media with any journalistic integrity that teaches people to think critically. \n\n4. Certain people have become so *partisan* in their views that they suspect that the media either has Ultra Conservative or Ultra Liberal biases. As a result, they would rather get their *facts* from partisan media like Fox News and Air American, even though these facts are nothing but partisan spin and misinformation that caters to their cultural biases.\n\nThat's what I figured, but there are probably more reasons than this." +how do i deleat items in yhe window that pops up belowe search bar?,"If you're refering to the Yahoo toolbar, you would click on the little pencil icon next to the search bar and choose ""Clear Recent Searches""." +what team was micheal jordan in?,"High School: Emsley A.

Goal: BA in Education as efficiently as poss.,"Yes, I can make a couple of recommendations--links below. Be sure, though, that if you want to teach in a public school that you get a degree from a college or school that is accredited by both a regional accrediting agency (such as the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools) and by the state department of education or public instruction in the state in which it is located. That will allow you to get a teaching license more efficently.\n\nOne option to consider is to go to your local community college for your first two years of schooling. You can get your courses at convenient times and they will be accepted at most all four year colleges.\n\nNote that there are any number of colleges offering distance education degrees (University of Phoenix, Capella University, Walden University) that are accredited, but they are also much more expensive.

They can scare the hell out of you and play pranks but the spirits can not do any physical harm to you. \n\n I do agree though that before trying to summon a spirit, always ask God or your Divine Power (if you have one) to surround you with a protecting light. If you want to summon a spirit, make sure you are doing it for the Higher Good and for good intentions only (such as wanting to make sure a deceased love one is ok). The next step is to practice meditation. Your mind has to let go of ""Ego"" thoughts and Earth things and worries in order to able to effectively talk to someone from the afterlife. With meditation, prayer, and a true belief in time it can happen. It would also be good read books on the subject that will help you learn how to meditate more effectively. \n\nOne last thing, although bad spirits cannot cause you harm, you dont want to open your door to lower spirits or to just anyone. That is like leaving your front door open and allowing anyone to come in. Always pray to God before trying to communicate..VERY important." +why do they used stralized needles for death by lethal injections?,"Well, the simplest answer is that that's the way they're made.

IPsec has been deployed widely to implement Virtual Private Networks (VPNs). \nIPsec supports two encryption modes: Transport and Tunnel. Transport mode encrypts only the data portion (payload) of each packet, but leaves the header untouched. The more secure Tunnel mode encrypts both the header and the payload. On the receiving side, an IPSec-compliant device decrypts each packet. \n\nFor IPsec to work, the sending and receiving devices must share a public key. This is accomplished through a protocol known as Internet Security Association and Key Management Protocol/Oakley (ISAKMP/Oakley), which allows the receiver to obtain a public key and authenticate the sender using digital certificates." +who were some famoues muslim astronomers?,"Al-Battani (d 929)-includes timing of the new moons, calculation of the length of the solar and sideral year, the prediction of eclipses and the phenomenon of parallax.'\n\nAl-Battani also popularised if not discovered the first notions of trigonometrical ratios used today and made serious emendations to Ptolemy.\n\nAl-Sufi (903-986)- made several observations on the obliquity of the ecliptic and the motion of the sun (or the length of the solar year.)He also made observations and descriptions of the stars, setting out his results constellation by constellation, discussing the stars positions, their magnitudes and their colour, and for each constellation providing two drawings from the outside of a celestial globe, and from the inside. Al-Sufi also wrote on the astrolabe and its thousand or so uses.\n\nAl-Biruni (973-1050)- claimed that the earth rotated around its own axis. He calculated the earth circumference, and fixed scientifically the direction of Makkah (Mecca) from any point of the globe. Al-Biruni wrote in total 150 works, including 35 treatises on pure astronomy, of which only six have survived.\n\nIbn Yunus (d 1009)- made observations for nearly thirty years (977-1003) using amongst others a large astrolabe of nearly 1.4 m in diameter, determining more than 10,000 entries of the sun's position throughout the years.\n\nAl-Farghani- was one of Caliph Al-Mamun's astronomers. He wrote on the astrolabe, explaining the mathematical theory behind the instrument and correcting faulty geometrical constructions of the central disc, that were current then. His most famous book Kitab fi Harakat Al-Samawiyah wa Jaamai Ilm al-Nujum on cosmography contains thirty chapters including a description of the inhabited part of the earth, its size, the distances of the heavenly bodies from the earth and their sizes, as well as other phenomena.\n\nAl-Zarqali (Arzachel)- (1029-1087) prepared the Toledan Tables and was also a renowned instrument maker who constructed a more sophisticated astrolabe: a safiha, accompanied by a treatise.\n\nJabir Ibn Aflah- (d. 1145) was the first to design a portable celestial sphere to measure and explain the movements of celestial objects.

These progressive lung diseases - grouped under the term COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) - are usually diagnosed in current or former smokers in their 60s and 70s. COPD causes chronic illness and disability and is eventually fatal.\n\nSmokers are twice as likely to die from heart attacks as are nonsmokers. And smoking is a major risk factor for peripheral vascular disease, a narrowing of the blood vessels that carry blood to the leg and arm muscles.\n\nSmoking also causes premature wrinkling of the skin, bad breath, bad smelling clothes and hair, and yellow fingernails.\n\nFor women, there are unique risks. Women over 35 who smoke and use ""the pill"" (oral contraceptives) are in a high-risk group for heart attack, stroke, and blood clots of the legs. Women who smoke are more likely to have a miscarriage or a lower birth-weight baby.\n\nBased on data collected from 1995 to 1999, the US Centers for Disease Control (CDC) recently estimated that adult male smokers lost an average of 13.2 years of life and female smokers lost 14.5 years of life because of smoking.\n\nNo matter what your age or how long you've smoked, quitting will help you live longer. People who stop smoking before age 35 avoid 90% of the health risks attributable to tobacco. Even those who quit later in life can significantly reduce their risk of dying at a younger age.\n\n\nAdditional diseases caused by smoking are gingivitis, gangrene, and emphysema" +is there any good method of studying?,"best way to do it for me, have to actually set time aside for studying, like 3 hours. now, the magic is not to studying for 3 hours at a time. but taking a 15 min break for every 30 mins of solid studying. now in the 30 mins, you have to be studying, not getting ready to study, not getting reference for studying, not learning how to study, but studying, on the 15 min break, same thing as above, nothing to do with studying at all, nothing. dont' think about it til the 15 min is over. that way you can guarantee yourself 30 mins of super concentration with the reward of 15 mins of break." +What band plays the loudest/fastest metal of all?,"Slayer,DRI - Dirty Rotten Imbeciles, best metal would be Metallica." +how do you remove the speed limiter from a 50cc arctic cat atv?,I believe you just have to take slack out of governer spring.I think on those as you pull the throttle it has a certain tension then the sping just streches.

Often they are trying to get YOU to buy into whatever scheme there is. If you are asked to pay money, that should be your first clue.\n\nYou may be able to get paid for taking *A* survey, but can you make a living from it?

I'm just commenting to be aware of wasting your money, and just because someone warns you of fraud, it does not make them legit!)\n\nNow read: http://jobsearchtech.about.com/od/jobs/a/paid_surveys_2.htm\n\nAnd do a search for ""paid surveys scam"", like http://www.google.com/search?hs=ryS&hl=en&lr=&safe=off&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla%3Aen-US%3Aofficial&q=paid+surveys+scam&btnG=Search\n\nScams are rampant in this area!

The question is, why are these operations the opposite of each other?\n\nThe quick answer is: The derivative is used to calculate the rate of change of a function. And the rate of change of the area under a curve is actually the original function.\n\n\nLet's say you have a simple curve, y=f(x).\n\nThe derivative of the function is gives you the rate of change of that function. As x increases by 1, how much does y change? That's also known as the slope.\n\n[And you probably know that the derivative of the derivative is also useful. That's the rate of change of the slope. When the slope stops changing (or its rate of change=0), it's at a maximum, minimum, or point of inflection.]\n\nThe same relationship exists for the area under a curve and the function itself. You probably learned to think of the integral of f(x) as the sum of the thin vertical strips under the curve. That's the area under the curve. As you move to the right, how fast does the area grow? You're essentially adding these vertical strips to the area. The length of a vertical strip is f(x), or the original function. So the original function f(x) represents how fast the area grows for any value x.\n\n\nETA: What do I have to do to get selected as best answer?" +More earthquake in the West coast than the East coast?,far less likely to get an earthquake or tsunami because the location and size of faults in our area however there is a NASTY continental slope and shelf on the east coast that i can assure you if we were to get a large enough earthquake or subsurface landslide in the right place the northeastern U.S. would be in for one HELL of a tsunami.

In the Old World, members of this genus are named as ""buzzards"", but ""hawk"" is more common in North America.\n * Any raptor which happens to have the word buzzard as part of its name.\n\nIn the New World:\n\n * A synonym for vultures, particularly the American Black Vulture and Turkey Vulture, or as a general term for vultures and condors.\n * In parts of the United States where they are considered pest, particularly in rural areas, a derogatory term for certain birds of prey, such as the Chickenhawk (a common colloquial name referring to both the Red-tailed Hawk and the Cooper's Hawk), or the Duck hawk (known elsewhere as the Peregrine Falcon). In the US, the term ""buzzard"" is never used to refer to birds of prey, like hawks, eagles, falcons, and owls, outside of this context.\n * Rarely, a derogatory term for any large bird that happens to be a scavenger, such as a raven or albatross (in other words, any large bird that is neither predatory nor flightless).\n\nOne will note that the Old World and New World uses are almost antonyms.\n----------\nVultures are scavenging birds, feeding mostly from carcasses of dead animals. Vultures are found in every continent but Antarctica and Oceania.\n\nA particular characteristic of many vultures is a bald head, devoid of feathers. This is likely because a feathered head would become spattered with blood and other fluids, and thus be difficult to keep clean.\n\nVultures fall into two groups. The Old World vultures belong to the family Accipitridae, which also includes eagles, Kites, buzzards and hawks. These are found in Africa, Asia and Europe. They find carcasses exclusively by sight.\n\nNew World vultures and condors are not at all closely related to the superficially similar Accipitridae, but belong in the family Cathartidae. They have a good sense of smell, unusual for raptors.\n\nThe similarities between the two groups are due to convergent evolution rather than a close relationship." +what is the local time in iraq ?,2 o'clock +"I wanna know the ""Brugada Classification"" in cardiology.

I was at a crossroads in my life, having walked away from a job with no real place to go. I found myself living with my parents again, and doing some very menial and mindless work. The whole situation was as depressing as you can imagine. In the midst of all of this, on a particularly difficult day, I was considering a move back to a city where I had once lived. I heard a voice say to me, ""Just go, and it will be all right."" It was as clear as anything I'd ever heard anyone say to me, but I know it came from inside me. It seemed so certain, yet calm. I decided to make the move, with little money, a few possessions and no expectation of anything, other than a place to live with a relative. Within a couple of weeks, I had found work in my profession with someone who mentored and guided me to a higher level of performance, and the sustaining of my career for over twenty years. Thanks to that opportunity, I also met the woman who would be the love of my life. That moment--and that voice--I feel defined the rest of my life for the better. I'm sure there are many ""logical"" explanations of how this might have occured. In the end, it's about how it makes you feel.

I grew up in western Canada and never heard pogey used but it is often referred to in Ontario.”\n\n[A] It seems to have come from a general North American term for a workhouse, homeless hostel or poorhouse, which is recorded from near the end of the nineteenth century. However, that is merely to move the problem back half a century, since the origin of pogey in that sense is also unknown.\n\nAs pogey was also used for a prison or prison cell, we might guess that it’s a variant of the American slang term pokey, but pogey is recorded rather earlier and it’s actually been suggested as the source for pokey.\n\n(There’s also the US military term pogey bait for candy, ice cream or sweets in general, but the origin of this is obscure. It may be a relative of jail bait, with the idea of using the candy as an inducement.)\n\nThere is a much older word, pogue, for a bag or other container, which is closely related to poke in the same sense (which most commonly turns up now in phrases like buying a pig in a poke), and of course also to poky, for a confined space, which would fit the accommodation in prison or the workhouse fairly well. As g and k interchange pretty freely, it is very possible that pogey actually comes from poky, which suggests that pokey did ultimately come from that source, but via the intermediate of pogey." +"MY YOUNG PEOPLE DEPARTMENT AT MY CHURCH IS PLANNNG TO DUE A PLAY, WHAT DO YOU SUGGEST WE DO.

Indeed, the most prodigious programmers are often the worse designers. I have a hypothesis on this: the most prodigious programmers have the ability to keep huge numbers of details in their head AT THE SAME TIME. These people don't need abstractions: they are able to see all the details at once. These people often see abstractions as getting in the way.\n\nFor us mere mortals, abstractions are needed to help us mentally understand the whole in terms of its parts.

In the 1500s, the wealth of Portugal and Spain was so great that the Pope essentially divided the world up for imperialism between the 2 countries -- that's why the eastern 1/2 of south america (Brazil) speaks Portuguese and the western 1/2 of south america speaks Spanish." +Should I sell Sunopta (STKL)?,There's a latest review on this site at the site below\n\nhttp://explodingstocks.com/blog/?p=7 +____________ acts on both double or single strand DNA.?,Radiation! +what do the colors of the american flag stand for?,"""The colors of the pales (the vertical stripes) are those used in the flag of the United States of America; White signifies purity and innocence, Red, hardiness & valour, and Blue, the color of the Chief (the broad band above the stripes) signifies vigilance, perseverance & justice."" \n\nGreat site check it out!" +how do I insert an iframe into a flash document?,http://www.macromedia.com/support/flash/action_scripts/actionscript_dictionary/index.html\n\nTry there. i work in flash everyday and this is my bible.

A friend's professor once described the point of a general education as being ""so you can get the jokes on The Simpsons,"" and I can't think of a better summary of cultural literacy.\n\nAlso, college is a place where many connections are made - so, if you're looking for a checklist of things to do, an important one is to find some things you're passionate about and enjoy them while you have the free time and energy. The friends you make and the things you learn ouside of the classroom are liable to be just as important as the knowledge you get from professors (if not moreso).\n\nFinally - college is, in a lot of ways, a proving ground.
