why doesn't an optical mouse work on a glass table?,"Optical mice use an LED and a camera to rapidly capture images of the surface beneath the mouse.  The infomation from the camera is analyzed by a DSP (Digital Signal Processor) and used to detect imperfections in the underlying surface and determine motion. Some materials, such as glass, mirrors or other very shiny, uniform surfaces interfere with the ability of the DSP to accurately analyze the surface beneath the mouse.  \nSince glass is transparent and very uniform, the mouse is unable to pick up enough imperfections in the underlying surface to determine motion.  Mirrored surfaces are also a problem, since they constantly reflect back the same image, causing the DSP not to recognize motion properly. When the system is unable to see surface changes associated with movement, the mouse will not work properly."

What is Trans Fat? How to reduce that?,"Trans fats occur in manufactured foods during the process of partial hydrogenation, when hydrogen gas is bubbled through vegetable oil to increase shelf life and stabilize the original polyunsatured oil. The resulting fat is similar to saturated fat, which raises ""bad"" LDL cholesterol and can lead to clogged arteries and heart disease. \nUntil very recently, food labels were not required to list trans fats, and this health risk remained hidden to consumers. In early July, FDA regulations changed, and food labels will soon begin identifying trans fat content in processed foods."

"In the san francisco bay area, does it make sense to rent or buy ?","renting vs buying depends on your goals. <br />\ngenerally thinking is that buying is better b/c the payments that would go into the rent start building equity in your home. the govt also incentivizes you to buy by making your property tax payments and mortgage interest payments tax deductible.\nhaving said that current housing status in the bay area is such that housing cost to purchase is relatively high and rental prices (compared to ownership cost) are relatively low (relative to the rest of the country). it makes lese sense to buy vs. other places.\nbottom line you should base your decision on whether you think the market will keep going up or not. the other numbers tend to even out, the main gain or loss in buying comes from appreciation/depreciation."
What's the best way to clean a keyboard?,"There are commercial kits available, but a can of compressed air, a lint-free cloth or wipes, mild dishwashing liquid, and a vacuum cleaner with a soft brush are all you really need for a basic cleaning. \nAfter turning off your computer and unplugging your keyboard, gently shake the keyboard upside down over some newspaper to dislodge loose crumbs and particles. \nUse the can of compressed air to blow a stream of air between the keys. \nDampen a lint-free cloth with a diluted solution of dishwashing liquid and water to wipe down the keys. \nUse the vacuum cleaner brush attachment to suck away any remaining dirt or debris. <br />\nIf you have a membrane-type keyboard (it doesn't have a spring under each key) and the keys are truly grungy, you can remove the keys with a small screwdriver and use cotton swabs and 90% isopropyl alcohol to get it sparkling clean. If you are still feeling industrious, next you can tackle cleaning your mouse. \nOf course, if cleaning your keyboard seems a truly undesirable task, you can always buy a new one for around $20."
Why do people blush when they are embarrassed?,"from ask yahoo...\nhttp://ask.yahoo.com/ask/20040113.html\n<<Blushing is a unique blend of evolutionary and social behavior. It's an involuntary reaction of the sympathetic nervous system, which is responsible for our ""fight or flight"" response, but blushing is solely triggered by social cues. <br />\nPeople generally blush when they're feeling embarrassed, scared, or stressed. As a result of the ""fight or flight"" response, the capillaries that carry blood to the skin widen, and the increased blood flow lends the face, as well as sometimes the chest, neck, or even the body or legs, a reddened color. \nExcessive facial blushing, or erythrophobia, is caused by overactivity of the sympathetic nervous system. The condition can cause a lot of psychological duress and has engendered several support groups. \nIt's common knowledge that animals don't blush. So while there are some evolutionary cues behind blushing, it's also linked to something uniquely human -- moral consciousness.>>"
"Is Lin Qingxia (aka Brigitte Lin) ""the most beautiful woman in Chinese cinema?""","Well.  Everyone has different definition on what 'beauty' is.  I like Lin Qingxia, but I think many girls are prettier than she was. (She is more than 40 years old now). \nIf ""Lin Qingxia"" is the most beautiful woman in the Chinese cinema, the most handsome man in Chinese cinema should be ""Chin Han"" because they always made movies together.\nHowever, A male movie star once was asked his girlfriend in real life or the girlfriend in movie is more beautiful.

How the human species evolved?,"A tough question as it overlaps science and theology. Since you asked ""how the human species evolved?"" I'll assume you're interested in the scientific approach to the answer.\nThe current theory holds that Homo sapiens evolved from Hominid ancestors over the course of millions of years through a process called natural selection. Natural selection is the weeding and advancement of species variants over time based on the fit in that species' then current environments. The pressures for ""fit"" are competitive (with each other, with other tribes, and with other animals) and environmental (weather, terrain, availability of food, etc.). These factors all contributed to the development of our higher brain, which we now use to evolve as a global collective through communication & technology."
Who said the statement below and what does it mean?,"That is kind of a tricky little quote. Sometimes placing it in context can help. This is a quote from Ralph Waldo Emerson's essay ""Self Reliance,"" which discourages basing one's opinions and actions on common opinion in favor of self-trust (see the full essay at http://www.emersoncentral.com/selfreliance.htm). \nI think the point of this quote is that it's very desireable to have one's own original thoughts and opinions, and to live by them.  It's easier to live by one's own convictions and not be persuaded by others when in isolation (that's the ""independence of solitude""). However, not so special to isolate oneself from others in order to attain this ideal. Because it's difficult to live by one's own thoughts and opinions while being a part of society, it's something only a ""finished man"" can truly do. Also, in the essay, Emerson refers to being childlike - unselfish, non-judgmental, open-minded, uncynical, unhesitant - as something to admire. So I think that's where the seemingly misplaced ""perfect sweetness"" comes in. When a man can remain pure of heart while living in the harsh world and also keeping and living by his own ideals. \nWhat do you think?"

what's the best way to create a bootable windos/dos CD?,"Well, the best way is to look at whatever program you have for burning CDs and see if it has an option to create a bootable CD.  If you can't find it, or use Windows itself to burn CDs, then it's a little more complicated.\nNote: If you find that booting from CD doesn't work, you may have to adjust your BIOS setting to allow your machine to boot from CD.\nIf you want to boot to windows: the easiest way is probably to go here: http://www.nu2.nu/bootcd/ and download a utility that will do it for you.  There are instructions there depending on what type of boot you want.\nIf you don't trust using a third party utility, Microsoft has some instructions here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/167685/EN-US/ .  This process is not very straightforward though.\nIf you just need to get into your filesystem and poke around, you might consider booting a different OS.  For example, http://www.freedos.org/ (FreeDOS) and http://www.knoppix.net/ (Knoppix Linux) may do what you want.  For these, you can download ISO images and burn bootable CDs."
what is the reason for the increasing divorce percentage in the western world?,"IMO... our lives are much more complex than our equivalents from 50 years ago and thus it's more likely for married people to grow in different directions over time (values, needs, etc.). Add to that how easy and acceptable it is to get a divorce, and how quick we are to dispose of things that we no longer want, and you get an increasing percentage.\nI wouldn't be surprised if in the not too distant future the average length of a marriage drops to ~5 years and the average number of marriages per person increases to 2+.\nA parallel to consider: how many different circles of friends do you have and how often have you joined new ones and left others behind over your life? (grade school, high school, college, jobs, etc.). We are a nomadic species. :)"
"What is an ""imaginary number""?","Imaginary numbers are numbers than when squared equal a negative number, as in i^2 = -1, where i is the imaginary number. You'll also often see them represented as i = √-1 (that's the square root of -1).\nDon't be confused by the poorly chosen name - imaginary numbers do indeed exist and are used in advanced math, such as in the physics of electromagnetic fields. The analogy that Wikipedia uses is a good one - just like you don't need the concept of fractions to count stones, it doesn't mean that fractions don't exist. :)"
Faxing a pizza,"We're pretty far away from being able to beam anything in the way that you are describing.  There are some experiments where splitting entangled electrons allows us to observe some interesting 'action at a distance' effects, but the amount of data that would need to be stored to transmit something with as many atoms as a pizza is incredible.  Also, such an operation would require nano-assemblers that could interpret such data an reassemble the pizza from the info provided."

space missions,"You also need to consider the economic effects of funding basic research.  The moon missions of the 60's inspired an entire generation and helped to move many kids toward careers in science and engineering.  As a result, the US was well poised to take advantage of the huge boom in information technology in the last few decades.  The net effect of these engineers in the workforce could be see has a pretty impressive return on investment for the cost of those missions."
How a black hole is formed?,"The current scientific theory holds that black holes are formed when stars of sufficient mass (about 3x the mass of our Sun) reach the end of their life and collapse down into a singularity, which is, in essence, an infinitely small point with a huge amount of gravity - gravity so powerful that not even light can escape it's pull if it gets too close. It is also thought that black holes can be formed from smaller masses if external energy/pressure is exerted to squeeze the mass into a singularity.\nNot sure if there's any direct experimental evidence of creation, but there is evidence that they exist. Cosmologists use several different methods to detect blacks holes, such as by looking for light being bent and/or disappearing as it travels from remote stars towards us, and also by looking for bursts of x-rays that are given off as matter is sucked into the back hole and destroyed.\nFun fact: current evidence and theory suggests that the center of the Milky Way is a giant black hole that was formed as the densly packed stars in the center collapsed and sucked each other in."
Heavy water,"Heavy water is like regular water except that instead of two hydrogen atoms and an oxygen atom (H20) it has two deuterium atoms and an oxygen atom (D20). Deuterium is a hydrogen atom with an extra neutron.\nWater is used in nuclear reactors to moderate the reaction speed, and to absorb heat. Nuclear fission starts by giving off neutrons that create a chain reaction. Any water around it absorbs those neutrons (becoming heavy water) and slows the reaction. If heavy water is used instead of regular hydrogen water, the neutrons are not absorbed. This means that less pure nuclear material can be used to sustain a reaction. For example unrefined uranium, which is much less expensive, can be used instead of enriched uranium."

Nice apartment building near SBC Park?,"I can't tell you which of the many are best, but I can tell you about one I lived in briefly.\nI lived for a month in the Avalon at 4th and King. I was put up there as a corporate apartment. While it was fine, it was relatively expensive, and the rooms were small. It also had one of those rooms that served as kitchen, dining room and living room all in one. I'm not fond of these kinds of rooms, which are particularly American. The smell of cooking, people watching TV, people eating -- these all seem like activities that should be separated from one another. Call me old fashioned.  \nThe Avalon had a big gym, however, which was very good, and concierge service, which was very convenient. Most of them were very friendly. One concierge even hugged me when we left and said she was going to miss me!  Also convenient was its proximity to the Caltrain, the Safeway across the street and the Starbucks. But if you crave culture, this ain't it: everything is a chain store nearby.\nSo depending on your budget, your need for convenience and culture, and your tolerance for small rooms and/or omnirooms, it may suit you."
What are world's 3 smallest nations?,"1. The Vatican City in central Rome ranks as the smallest nation of the world. It measures 0.17 square miles.<br />\n2. Monaco. <br />\n3.

Monaco came under French protection in 1861. However from 1911, when the first constitution was promulgated, the prince of Monaco was an absolute ruler.<br />\n3. According to tradition, Marino, a Christian stonecutter from Dalmatia, took refuge (4th cent) on Mt. Titano, the chief geographical feature of present-day San Marino. By the mid-5th cent., a community was formed; because of its relatively inaccessible location and its poverty, it has succeeded, with a few brief interruptions, in maintaining its independence. In 1631 its independence was recognized by the papacy."

Economics of running a restaurant?,90% of restaurants fail in their first year of existence. A 10% profit level for a restaurant  is considered a success. The average revenue and net income is hard to define without knowing the food concept and what type of liquor license the establishment will have: just beer and wine license or full bar license? Will the restaurant depend heavily on take out food orders or mostly dining within? The hours are very long 12 to 15 hours a day if yo will be serving lunch and dinner.
Why do gas stations mix ethanol into gas?,"Right.  Fuel additives are helpful for reduction of emissions, although they are not always economical.  For the most part, the US congress has subsidized the creation of ethanol, which tends to be a net cost unless created from waste agricultural products.\nAnother substance that has the same anti-emissions properties as ethanol is MTBE.  There has been a lot of press about MTBE recently due to its tendency to pollute groundwater."
Why we are not using the sea waves to generate electricity?,"Same reason solar power isn't more popular despite lots of sunshine: with current technology the cost per kwh is still much higher than for power generated with fossil fuels. As fossil fuel prices rise and technology improves so-called ""alternative"" energy sources become more cost effective, but the crossover point still appears to be several years in the future.\nForcing expensive alternative technologies on the market before they are economically viable simply raises electricity prices for homeowners--this is part of the reason CA electric rates were so far above the national average in the 1990's, opening the door for Enron and like to make their ill-fated arbitrage plays..."
Why doesn't the NBA implement a minor leagues?,"The NBA does have minor leagues - they're called the CBA, and the International leagues. :)\nSeriously - because viewers seem to value explosiveness over efficiency, I think we're seeing a major shift in the average age of NBA players towards young athletes that are quicker, high-flying and more resilient to injury. I wouldn't be surprised at all if by the end of this decade the average age of the league allstars is well under 25."

Formula1 car,"Let me break it down-\nEngine- 3 liter V10.  Approximately 900+ hp, 19,000 rpm.  The engine weighs about 200 lbs.  It spins so fast that metal valve springs can't keep, the springs are pneumatic.\nBrakes- The better your brakes, the later you can brake and thus you can spend more time going fast.  These are carbon fiber and take 3 months to make.  They heat up to around 1500 F in use and can be seen glowing.  The wheels are limited to 13 inches in order to limit braking capability.  As they are, the driver experiences 4 G's of decelerating load under heavy braking.  An average person would black out in an F1 car.\nAerodynamics- Surprisingly, drag is not the critical factor, downforce is.  These cars have very high coefficients of drag, due to the open wheels and spoilers.  The downforce is created by aero devices which are basically inverted aeroplane wings, which push the car to the ground under speed.  It is because of the dependence on these devices that F1 cars have a difficult time passing, once the cars enter the dirty air behind another racer, downforce drops dramatically and so does the car's ability to corner quickly.\nTraction control- the cars generate so much power that the throttle is computer controlled to keep the tires from spinning.  The governing body (the FIA) wants to make this illegal but right now it is not feasible because it is merely software in the engine management systems, and it is not feasible to decompile these systems to find illegal code.\nTransmisison- The cars utilize computer controlled sequential manual transmissions.  The computers manage the throttle and clutch to pull off perfect shifts in one tenth of a second.  All the driver does is pull a lever.  The clutch is only used from a standstill and is engaged from a lever on the steering wheel. \nWhat doesn't make the cars fast-\nTires- The tires are grooved to limit traction.  If the drivers were allowed to run slicks, the traction and G loading would be so high that drivers would black out and possibly crash.  Starting in 2005, they also must last the entire race.\nWheels- Size limited to prevent the installation of overlarge brakes which would also push the drivers beyond the limits of human physiology\nBrakes- As stated earlier, size limited.  Also, no ABS at all (outlawed in 1994)."
how was Einstein's General Relativity theory proven ?,"First, I would never say that a theory has been proven. There may be a lot of evidence that supports a theory, and as a result it may no longer be on the list of theories that are being challenged, but theories are always theories and should always be open to adjustment by new evidence. A good theory is just a collection of hypothesis, experiments and deductions that survives repeated challenge and can therefore be used to predict untested outcomes.\nNow to your question (sorry for the tangent)... I think that most physicists consider Arthur Eddington's observations of the bending of light during the 1919 solar eclipse as the first solid evidence to support Einstein's theory of General Relativity. Einstein's theory predicted that gravitational fields would bend light, and Eddington's measurements supported that prediction, thus making it the first empirical data to support the theory."

how does a helicopter fly,"A helicopter gets its power from rotors or blades. When its rotors are spinning, a helicopter doesn't look much like an airplane. But the rotor blades have an airfoil shape like the wings of an airplane. So as the rotors turn, air flows more quickly over the tops of the blades than it does below. This creates enough lift for flight."

How effective is massage in relieving stress?,"Massage is good for relieving stress if you find the right kind of you. \nOne of the most popular massages is Swedish massage. Light to medium pressure is applied with long, soothing strokes. Sometimes stress can cause muscle pain. Deep tissue massage can be tailored to the person's need. Aromatherapy massage makes use of the therapeutic effect of essential oil combined with a relaxing massage. Warm stone massage has become very popular in the past few years. Reflexology is a special form of foot massage.\nIt may take a few trials to find the right kind of massage for you. Once you find it, it can help maintain good physical health and stress reduction."

Capturing light in a container,"So the answer to your specific question is 'no'.  The problem is that if the container shines, it means that light and energy is being lost and will eventually run out.  There are materials that will glow for a long time due to radioactive decay or via chemical processes, but all of these are using up their 'fuel' in the process and will eventually run out.\nSome radioactive substances have a pretty long half-life and will appear to glow steadily without much decay over the scale of a human lifetime.\nNow, to get more generalized... it is possible to trap light in a container that doesn't shine. Scientists have been able to free light in its place using supercooled clouds of sodium which are naturally opaque, but can temporarily transmit light when altered via a laser beam.  If the laser is shut off, a light beam that is passing through the cloud will be temporarily frozen in place.  Australian scientists have recently been able to extend this interaction to be nearly as long as a second.\nOnce the laser is reintroduced the beam is recovered and continues on its way.  Now all this is a little debatable, since the photons actually get temporarily swallowed up by the material.  The photons that come out afterwards have the same configuration and quantum state as what went in, but whether they are exactly the same photons is more of a question for philosophy than for physics."
When will Google buy Yahoo?,"Their respective market caps are too close for this to ever happen.\nInterestingly, many reporters, analysts and tech pundits that I talk to think that the supposed competition between Google and Yahoo is fallacious, and that they are very different companies with very different strategies. Google's true competitor is often seen as being Microsoft, not Yahoo. This would support your claim that they are complementary."
Do animals have feelings?,"It's clear that humans and animals (especially those close to us in the evolutionary tree), share similar chemical responses in their brain when faced with highly emotional situations.  Whether it be fear, contentment, mating urges, we have a lot of analogous mechanisms going on.  On this basis alone, there is a pretty strong argument that animals have feelings.\nOne possible counter-argument, however, is based on the definition that for certain chemical responses to be called feelings, that the being in question needs to have a conscious awareness of their state.  With this defition, it becomes much harder to say whether animals experience feelings in the same conscious manner even though the neurochemical signatures are similar.\nMy opinion is that this definition based on conscious understanding is a little specious, as it's based on an ongoing desire by some to try to define humans out of the context of the natural world... and to claim that we are categorically better than the other animals.  \nIf the neurochemical basis for consciousness is ever discovered we'll be able to quickly check which animals have this, and I suspect we'll find that many are conscious.  If this is so, then their feelings will be as real as human ones in all senses."
Is Trigonometry considered high school or college level math?,"In the US, Trig is normally considered as a high school level course, however, it is not a required course to graduate. I believe Algebra is the highest of the high school math courses that are required for graduation, although some schools may still only require Geometry.\nIn the US the typical sequence for math courses is Pre-Algebra, Geometry, Algebra, Trigonometry and then Calculus (which is usually taken at the high school level as Pre-Calculus, but may also be taken as full ""AP"" Calculus, where the ""AP"" stands for ""Advanced Placement"" and means that the student can get University-level credit for that course when they go to College)."
Why is there often a mirror in an elevator?,"The purpose is functional, but it's psychological rather than mechanical.\n\nHere's an explanation, from: http://www.slyasafox.com/book/book_33.html\n\n""In the early industrial age, buildings began to spring up all over the east coast. Many of these new buildings were taller than anything ever built before and most had elevators. As buildings got taller and taller, more people began to use elevators. Elevators in those days were pretty darn slow. People were constantly complaining about how slow the elevators were. \n\nElevator companies were challenged with this problem and came up with the typical problem statement elevators move too slow. So they went off to design elevators that were faster and safer, but at the time it was very expensive to do so. Several companies went off and running to build a safer and faster elevator, and one elevator company proposed a different problem statement. They may have had a different name for the approach, but they were using the fundamentals of the �est problem statement tool. One engineer said, I think our elevator speeds are just fine, people are crazy. \n\nThen an engineer proposed that they work on a different problem statement. He proposed that the problem was people think elevators move to slow. He inserted two words people think into the problem statement which allowed the design team to approach the problem from a completely different angle and thus a whole new set of ideas. Instead of concentrating on larger motors, slicker pulley designs and such, they concentrated on the passenger in the elevator.\n\nWhen they looked at the problem from this angle, the ideas started to snowball. Is it really too slow? Why do they think it is slow? How can we distract them? How can we make it more comfortable? Are customers scared of heights?\n\nThis lead to some first hand customer research. They found that a lot of people thought the elevators were a lot slower then they actually were. \n\n\nThey also discovered that people had an exaggerated sense of time because they had nothing to do but stare at the wall and think about the safety of the elevator  being suspended in the air, and preoccupied with the fear of falling. \n\nt room for additional equipment of any sort, so they brainstormed on that. This lead to the idea of mirrors in elevators so people would think about something else besides danger. Was their hair combed properly? Did her makeup look okay?\n\nBy installing mirrors in the elevators, people became distracted and were no longer preoccupied with the fear of falling. On a follow up survey, customers commented how much faster the new elevators were even though the speed was exactly the same. The elevator design itself had not changed at all."" \n\n"
Can someone explain the theory of e=mc2?,"In general it means that in a very high speed (also apply for low speed but hard to measure) , a Mass turns into Energy and vise versa. The conversion rate is C2 (C square)."
"Why can Bush get away with misinforming us about intelligence, then use that as reason for war?","Because the American public is more willing to forgive presidents that don't project themselves as smarter then them.  Its similar to how Oliver North and the Irancontra scandal in the 80's did not affect Reagan's popularity, but how Clinton's ""lies"" about Monica almost resulted in impeachment.  In a way, this may be Bush's genius, that he understands what lies Americans are willing to accept, and not accept."

Even if you are under age 59½, if you paid expenses for higher education during the year, part (or all) of any distribution may not be subject to the 10% additional tax. The part not subject to the tax is generally the amount that is not more than the qualified higher education expenses (defined later) for the year for education furnished at an eligible educational institution (defined later). The education must be for you, your spouse, or the children or grandchildren of you or your spouse."

What is the history of seeing eye dogs?,"here is an article that I've found:""Long before there was ever an established guide dog program was developed, dogs have been aiding the blind. A wooden plaque from the Middle Ages portrays a dog leading a blind man with a leash. The first actual attempt to train dogs to aid the blind was made in 1780 at Les Quinze-Vingts hospital for the blind, in Paris. In 1788, Josef Riesinger of Vienna was able to train a dog so well that people often doubted that he was blind!..."""

How long does take a space craft to get from the Earth to the Moon?,"It depends on what you are sending.  The Apollo missions were the last set of *manned* missions to the moon, and here is the travel time:\nLaunched: 16 July 1969 UT 13:32:00 (09:32:00 a.m. EDT)<br />\nLanded on Moon: 20 July 1969 UT 20:17:40 (04:17:40 p.m. EDT)\nIt took about 4 days to get there.  Rocket technology has not change too much since then so you can expect that getting people to the moon at this point would take about the same amount of time.\nIf you are dealing with a non-human payload, you may be able to cut down time, both because it is likely lighter, and because you don't need to worry as much about damaging G-forces.\nI've included a link that has the history of all missions to the moon, manned and unmanned."

Do all professional athletes do steroids now?,"I would say a good majority are, but the question is whether the steroid is considered a performance enhancing steroid or not.

How do you know if you're in love?,"In my experience you just know. It's a long term feeling of always wanting to share each new experience with the other person in order to make them happy, to laugh or to know what they think about it. It's jonesing to call even though you just got off an hour long phone call with them. It's knowing that being with them makes you a better person. It's all of the above and much more."
what is the cause for headaches,"There are several possible causes for headaches.  According to a Chiropractor friend of mine, dehydration is a major cause.

Why didn't anyone send more buses to the Superdome earlier?,"I don't have an article, but I was listening to NPR last night, and the commentator was saying the evacuation was really bungled due to an organization and communication problem. No one took charge and said, hey I'm running the show, get 2000 buses and send them down, because no one felt they were in charge. FEMA, State & local police, National Guard, all were not sure what the other guys were doing and so waited for overall direction, which never really came."

what are gamma ray bursts?,"The source of Gamma Ray bursts is currently unknown.  They are a surprising phenomenon because gamma rays are so powerful that very few events could cause them.  They have also only been recently discovered by projects like the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory, and appear to be coming from all directions, not just in the galactic plane.\nThis would indicate a phenomenon that has extra-galactic origins... for example, activity inside of an active galactic nuclei, or quasars.\nBecause they happen at random intervals, abd are ephemeral (often just a few seconds), and the ""scopes"" used to capture them are not tightly directional, we don't have any instruments currently that can figure out exactly what they are.  For now that means, the best we can do is hypothesize based on what cosmic events we believe are of the appropriate magnitude to tigger gamma rays."
Why's watching Television so addictive?,"I'd say that TV is more popular than books because it is multimedia and much more closely matches how we normally take in information. TV is video and audio. You can see and hear it and thus more information can be squeezed into a short amount of time while also giving a much richer experience. Next time you're watching TV, consider how much you would have to write just to completely describe a single frame.\nLast, TV is also much easier because it's a passive medium. Reading requires your brain to work harder to both read the words and then interpret them into visuals. TV is already visual and can be watched with much less focus & energy."
What is the origin of the name 'Soccer'?,"In the early days of this game, an association was set up in England to codify the rules.  The game was sometimes referred to as ""association football,"" probably to distinguish it from other variations.  ""association"" was abbreviated to ""assoc.,"" so the game was nicknamed ""soccer.""\nSince the term ""football"" was already used in the U.S. to describe a different game, the name ""soccer"" stuck here."
What's the capital city of Bolivia?,"Sucre is the legal capital, though the government sits in La Paz"
Why is it so foggy in San Francisco?,"It isn't as foggy as you might think. Spring and Fall are quite temperate, and San Francisco is renowned for it's ""Indian Summer"" in September. However, Mark Twain had a point when he said ""The coldest Winter I ever spent was Summer in San Francisco.""\nThis is because the warm air from inland (where it gets quite hot in the Summer) clashes with the cold air from the surrounding Pacific Ocean and the SF Bay. When that happens, fog forms. Further explanation from http://kids.earth.nasa.gov: ""At night, the ground surface cools by radiating heat to space. Air near the ground cools to the dew point temperature, causing water in the air to condense.""\nSure it's cold, but fog can be quite beautiful and atmospheric. Just look at the pictures on http://www.goldengatephoto.com/sanfran/thefogrollsin.html  Lovely!"
Why does it seem that most of the diets don't work on over weight people?,"I think that the main reason is that obese people should be treated as drug addict. The main problem is that both obese and drug addicts have habits that causing them to either eat or do drug. Both of them also have physical addiction that needed to be treated accordingly. Only after facing those two major factors it will be the time for diets. <br />\nAnother major issue is that the society actually unknowingly supports obesity; let me give you an example- today in the US, an obese person can claim disability and get welfare. By that, the government actually encourages obesity. Why would someone even try to get better? <br />\nAuthorities should condition those allowances: if you lose weight over a specified period you will continue getting it. If you did not lose weight you lose the allowance.<br />\nWe should always keep in mind that obesity costs a lot more then just the allowance that the obese person gets. There is the health costs, taxes lost and so on.<br />\nI say- do what you can to leave healthy life, and don’t give up"
Which car and house insurance company is recommended in California?,"Costco gives some of the best rates. \nThe service is very good, too. There was this time when I couldn't start my car. Since it's a certain European car, it couldn't be jumpstarted by a friend's car. Only a tow truck had enough power to jumpstart it. I called the Costco auto assitance. Not only did they send a tow truck quickly, but they also called to follow up on whether the problem was fixed or not. Highly recommend it!"

How come the usage of alternate power generators is not more prevalent in a state like Californi,"California electricity is generated by several sources, including hydroelectric, wind, geothermal and nuclear (in addition to the more traditional natural gas).  The question is why these other sources aren't used more, and the answer is that historically, they've either been more expensive or have environmental risks of their own (esp. for nuclear).  As petroleum and natural gas sources start to get used up, and world demand for energy increases, the cost of electricity from natural gas will go up and the other sources will become more cost effective and more prevalent.\nIncidentally, solar power is another source used in California, but it's provided by individuals, not power companies.  If your house has solar power and you have the right equipment, you can sell your surplus electricity to the power company and your electric meter will literally run backward."
Why is water transparent?,Water is transparent cause it was meant to be like that.
"Why do all zippers have ""YKK"" on them?",ykk is a big manufacturer of zippers
When do you use a semicolon instead of a colon?,"While historically the use of the semicolon and colon were similar, modern usage seems to be diverging, with semicolons indicating breaks slightly stronger than commas and colons introducing lists and explanations. \nSemicolons have always been used in a manner very similar to commas, but with greater ""weight.""  That is, the semicolon introduces greater breaks in the sentence, dividing clauses which are longer and more independent, while commas are reserved for short pauses and for separating lists of short items.\nContinuing up the continuum, colons are ""weightier"" than semicolons, but less so than periods.  They introduce a break which is longer or more important than that introduced by semicolons, but not as final as periods.  Colons separate clauses which can stand as independent sentences grammatically, while semicolons can also be used for non-sentential clauses.\nHowever, in modern writing the colon is rarely used in this role as glorified semicolon.  The colon has developed a specific semantics as a break separating an introduction from an explanation.  For example, the colon is used after the salutation in formal letters.  It is used to introduce quotes, separating the source from the quoted text.  A colon is used to introduce a list, included bulleted lists.  A colon is used to separate the parts in a multipart title, such as ""Reading Lolita in Tehran: A Memoir in Books"" or ""Good to Great: Why Some Companies Make the Leap...And Others Don't""."
Why do people amputate dogs tail?,"There are a couple of reasons why this was done a few decades ago.  Dogs with curved tails are known to be chasing flies and fleas that got on their tails. Owners of the dogs found this a nuisance that all of a sudden a dog would keep chasing its tail for several hours in a week. Due to this dogs forgot their ""job"" which was to guard sheep, or pull carts, etc.\nSecondly, certain dogs go very wild if we pull their tails, even if its done playfully. They simply get mad at you, bite you or even kill you, if you are small.  Since little children always found it playful to pull the tails of the dogs and this meant a potential danger to their lives, the owners cut their tails short. \nEver thought of the word CUR-TAIL? :-)"
How come stars are generally round?,"Largely because of the massive amounts of gravitational force involved.  A sphere is the only sustainable shape when talking about forces of that magnitude.  Stars are incredibly dense towards their core, and over billions of years the matter will coalesce in a sphere like shape."
What is the best relational database?,"Define ""best"". Oracle is like a BMW. Expensive but has all the fixings. But not everyone needs a BMW. MySQL is like a VW Beetle (the old model). Its cheap, and gets you where you need to go. But you have to tweak it to suit your needs."
Why do we yawn?,"Found an interesting article on this...\nYawning is a unique breathing act, which is different from the usual practice of breathing. During yawning, the mouth involuntarily opens due to the spasm of mastoid muscles. These spasms, without your permission, force you to take a deep breath. It also involves many other muscles of your body, such as abdominal muscles. Lung ventilation increases, sending oxygen to the brain. Extra blood is pushed from the liver and spleen to the brain stem. During yawning, intellectual activity stops and for a moment we cannot think. We usually start yawning when we are very tired, before sleep, when we are too excited, or extremely serious. \nThere is a yawn center in our brain that makes this act a reflex like coughing or swallowing. The yawning reflex is very contagious, forcing people to imitate it. This phenomenon even has a fancy name: alolomimea. Yawning can be easily conditioned to become a bad habit. If you fight the urge to yawn, it will return in a similar situation. Yawning is what your body develops to get a “time out” to recharge for a brief moment. It is a signal that we are running out of gas, it is a signal to rest. \nThis is a great compensatory mechanism, without which we would drop into sleep suddenly without warning, as in patients with narcolepsy."
Which cat has the largest variety of prey?,"In Africa, a pride of lions (male: ~400 lbs, female: ~280 lbs) pretty regularly hunt wildebeest (440-600 lbs), although they usually go after the sick or young ones.  Occasionally, they can take down a giraffe (2420-4250 lbs), but this doesn't happen often.  Elephants (11,000 lbs) and rhinos (2500 lbs) are just a little dangerous to be bothered.\nIn Asia, tigers can take down a water buffalo (1800-2600 lbs), although again, they usually go for the sick or young ones.\nThese are the cats with the largest prey."
Why can I see myself in a mirror?,"When a mirror is hit by particles of light called photons, it reflects the photons back to us. When photons hit a smooth surface like a mirror, they bounce back off of the mirror at roughly the same angle at which they hit the object, creating a reflection that looks the same."
Where is the best place to cycle in San Francisco?,"Around the Embarcadero and into the Presidio, then aound Ocean Beach and back through GG Park."

what is the number one formula one car?,"The McLaren MP4-20 is considered to be the strongest car.  When it doesn't break down it beats the Renault handily.  The Renault is the best balance this year between performance and reliability.  I think the vast majority of F1 journalists consider the McLaren to be the strongest car, even the Renault F1 team admits that McLaren's car is better."
Number one formula one driver?,"Depends on your question.\nKimi Raikkonen won more races than FA in the 2005 season, and many, including myself, believe him to be the best.\nMichael Schumacher has won an unprecedented seven world driving championships and has shown no signs of losing the edge (his car this year was handicapped by tire rules and their supplier).  He also has by far the most wins of any racing driver for all of time.\nFernando Alonso Diaz is the champion for 2005 but all signs pointed to a heated battle for 2006.  But as the WDC, he does get to wear the #1 on his car for the 2006 season."

As many computer users know, the additive colors are red, green, and blue.  Traditionally, the subtractive colors were red, yellow, and blue.  But more technically, they are magenta, yellow, and cyan (a kind of blue)."
Who is Earth-2 Superman and how is he different from regular Superman?,"It's relatively simple.  Back in 1961, DC Comics revealed that all of their Golden Age (c. 1939-1945) characters had lived on a different Earth from their Silver Age (c. 1956-1970) characters.  Some characters (Batman, Robin, Wonder Woman) were virtually the same on each Earth, while others (The Flash, Green Lantern, the Atom) were radically different.  \nEarth 2's Superman was slightly less powerful than Earth 1's, mostly adhering to the classic ""Faster than a speeding bullet, more powerful than a locomotive, able to leap tall buildings in a single bound"" description.  Earth 1's Superman could travel faster than light, juggle planets, and had a host of super powers including super-breath, super-ventriloquism, and super-hypnotism.  Earth 2's Superman eventually married Lois Lane and became the editor of the Daily Star before (temporarily) disappearing in 1985's ""Crisis on Infinite Earths.""  Earth 1's Superman finished his adventures in Alan Moore's ""Whatever Happened to the Man of Tomorrow?,"" a two-parter than wrapped up and resolved some 30 years of continuity.  Both Supermen were supplanted by John Byrne's 1985 reboot of the character, which was intended to simplify that continuity and start over from scratch.\nEarth 2's Superman has reappeared twice since ""Crisis;"" once in 1999's ""Kingdom Come,"" and most recently in 2005's ""Infinite Crisis.""  What his role is in this maxiseries is undetermined as of this writing.  Earth 1's Superman has yet to reappear, but longtime fans can always hope."
How do you become a judge on the Supreme Court?,"There are nine seats on the United States Supreme Court. You must be nominated by the President of the United States, and confirmed by a majority in the U.S. Senate. Justices are appointed for life (except in cases of retirement or impeachment).\nIt is not necessary for that person to have experience as a judge (George W. Bush's nomination of Harriet Miers http://news.search.yahoo.com/news/search?ei=UTF-8&fl=0&fr=slv5-&p=harriet+miers+%22supreme+court%22<br />\nis not the first time a non-judge has been nominated), just a solid legal mind. Generally when a President chooses a nominee, he will look for someone whose ideals and worldview match his own. Gerald Ford famously did not make an idealogical choice when he appointed John Paul Stevens (http://www.supremecourthistory.org/04_library/subs_volumes/04_c11_f.html) <br />\nand in subsequent years was rather disappointed at some of Stevens' decisions. \nThere is a lot more information at the official Supreme Court site: http://www.supremecourtus.gov/"
What is the oldest evidence of life?,"Some evidence of photosynthesis was found on rocks in Greenland dating from 3.7 billion years ago. Danish researchers reached that conclusion analyzing the relative abundance of uranium and thorium in some rocks, and the high abundance of uranium in those suggests that there was oxygen present. Their conclusion was that microorganisms like present day cyanobacteria were converting sunlight to chemical energy through oxygen-producing photosynthesis."
"Where did the band, The Dismemberment Plan, get their name from?","Straight from Travis Morrison (singer and guitarist) himself:<br />\n""It’s from the movie Groundhog Day. There’s a guy who chases after Bill Murray and tries to keep selling him different types of insurance and 'the dismemberment plan' was one of them. It just stuck.""  In another interview, Morrison admits that when you're young, you think things are incredibly funny when, in reality, they're not THAT funny.  Considering all the nicknames they earned, I think it was a rather witty, catchy band name.  Best,<br />\n`k."
What does 'zig' refer to in the All Your Base clip?,"the enigmatic and poorly translated introduction to the American port of Zero Wing is equal parts confusing and hilarious. what in the world could a &quot;zig&quot; be? well, it would seem that the word &quot;zig,&quot; unfortunately, is not yet another perplexing term lost in translation. according to sites actually dedicated to reviewing the game in spite of its connections to the &quot;all your base are belong to us&quot; phenomena, the word &quot;zig&quot; is actually a made up name for the fighter plane you pilot throughout the game. think &quot;x-wing&quot; and you're on the right track.<br />\n&quot;Take off every zig!!&quot; likely meant that every zig fighter needed to take off to battle the mysteriously robotic villian of the game, known only as &quot;Cats.&quot;"

What's a good home based business?,"I would recommend starting with something you enjoy, find a wholesale supplier or make the goods/services yourself, and setup a store with eBay.  This is really quick and easy (AKA: cheap) to start.  If you don't know exactly what you want to do it is a good way to see how it will work without a huge investment.  If you are successful in that marketplace you can take it to the next level and expand into a more traditional business model with less risk!  \n\nTry playing around with writing a business plan and see what your risk and financial tolerance is.  The link below is a good tool for planning a new eBay business, I would recommend you check this out first!"
"what is a tag, and why is it being hailed by some people as the greatest thing since sliced bread?","Tags are like post-it notes that readers of the content leave behind for other readers. They give clues to the context and meaning beyond a simple description. They're like finding notes in a text book scribbled by a previous owner. You can usually gain insight into the material based on those notes. \n\nNow imagine there is a cross-reference of all those post-its and margin notes. More than one person can add their own post-it. You can easily find the most popular ""post-its"" thanks to an index of all of them.  This is where the real power of tagging lies-- in the weight and meaning these agreed-upon notes give.\n\nOf course, context is everything. Next time you're together, show her MyWeb2.0 and del.icio.us in action. Show her how the information is sliced and diced-- most recent, most popular, most frequently used tags. I find my parents only get these new paradigms when I show them to them in context."

What are the effects of parental favoritism?,"From my personal experience, I've seen parental favoritism cause lifetime effects. \nMy mom's brother was the favorite- she was the least favored. 50 years later, she still struggles with feeling inadequate and has a hard time trusting people. Because of this, she has a hard time maintaining friendships and family relationships.\nMy grandmother and her sister were treated differently by my great-grandfather. My grandmother was treated as the most special. Her sister was expected to do chores, take care of the family etc. She ended up being the dependable, reliable one because she developed her independence. She also never forgave her father or her sister for their unfair treatment. My grandmother grew up needing others to take care of her.\nThis is a pattern I've seen. Those that are favored end up developing few of their skills and talents. Many times they grow up becoming more concerned about pleasing other people. And many times they don't know how to take care of themselves.\nThose that are disfavored can become strongly independent, but they may also have weaknesses in their ability to trust others and form lasting relationships. What is true is that favoritism has an unhealthy emotional impact on all children, whether favored or not.\nA good book that deals with this subject is The Emotional Incest Syndrome : What to do When a Parent's Love Rules Your Life, by Dr. Patricia Love."

Why are the San Francisco 49er's Sucking so Bad Again?,"1.  Poor drafting.  Between 2000-2006, the 49ers drafted 55 players. Only 8 starters on offense from all of those draft classes combined, and only four at the 'skill positions' (Barlow, Lloyd, Battle and Smith).\n\n2.  Injuries:  9 guys on IR, including starting Center, starting T, starting FS and SS, starting LB and starting TE.\n\n3.  Four different starting QBs this season.\n\n4.  Barlow not a difference maker/elite back.  His 3.3 yards per carry are actually worse than last year!\n\n5.  Unimaginative play calling (other than first game of season).\n\n6.  49ers lead the league by a wide margin in number of series that go 3-and-out.  This leaves the defense vulnerable."
what is the temperature on the sun and how to calculate the lost of heat per distance from it?,"You might not have intended it, but your question is a lot more complex than you might have thought.  It turns out that the temperature of the sun is a function of how deep into the sun you are, with the surface temperature being about 6000 Kelvins.  To make things even more complicated, the Corona of the sun (which extends in all directions around the sun beyond the surface) is actually 1,000,000 Kelvins.\n\nThis fact is well established, but further research is required to understand *why* there is such a huge difference in temperature between the two.\n\nNow for the second part of your question:\n\nThe light intensity of the sun drops off as the inverse square of your distance from the sun.  The ""heat"" is another thing entirely, because heat is defined as the average kinetic energy of particles, and photons don't count strictly in that definition.\n\nThere are particles that come from the sun in the form of solar wind, and around the region of the Earth, they have a ""temperature"" around 1000k."

who should I start this week in fantasy football? Delhomme @BUF or Brooks @NYJ?,Both teams have good passing d and both match ups are on the road.  Delhomme has a better #1 receiver in Smith although Horn is healthy and is pretty good in his own right but Brooks has the better #2 receiver in Stallworth so that balances it out a little.  Neither is a great option and it's a tough call so I think you gotta go with the guy who's performed better so far this year which is Delhomme.  You might want to check the waiver and see if somebody like McMahon - the new Philly QB is available as he's got a nice matchup this week and could be better than your two current options.

Why was the Passion of Christ a controversial movie?,"Jewish people were concerned that the movie would fuel antisemitism. A concerned Rabbi Eugene Korn previewed the film before it came out and made the following statement,\n\n""We are deeply concerned that the film, if released in its present form, will fuel the hatred, bigotry and anti-Semitism that many responsible churches have worked hard to repudiate.""\n\nAnother controversial aspect of the movie was its graphically violent depiction of Jesus' crucifixation. Some Christians were upset that the movie choose to focus on Jesus' violent death rather than other Biblical themes like the resurrection and his life experiences valuing messages of love, tolerance, and redemption."

I'm new to road biking and need a bike under $1000. What frame and parts do you recommend?,"I'd agree with TaraN's answer. Take the time to really find what you want. Take a lot of extended test rides. You might find that aluminum might be too harsh for you, in which case you might find that steel or carbon might be more comfortable. That's just one example. Lots of test rides will give you a feel for how the various bikes at a given price point can handle very differently. Without getting into too much tech-speak, you might find that one bike handles a bit more twitchy than another. Think of the difference as driving a Mini Cooper versus a basic sedan. Some bikes are set up more for racing, where you'll get a quicker handling bike, whereas others will handle a bit more laid back.\n\nParts wise, you'll find the same component offerings on many of the manufacturers out there for a given price point, as TaraN pointed out. You'll most likely be getting a bike with Shimano componenets, with perhaps a mix of some of the manufacturer's own branded components (for example, Trek outfits their bikes with a lot of Bontrager componentry).\n\nFocus on the overall ride of the bike. For a $1000, you can get a lot of bike.\n\nWade at The Spokesman in downtown Santa Cruz is a GREAT guy - very helpful, and yes, very patient. He's very knowledgeable and will set you up right.\n\nAlso in that same category, I'd highly recommend seeing Vance Sprock over at Cupertino Bike Shop. He's just like Wade - he'll set you up right.\n\nGood luck!"

What kind of guitar is that?,"Can't answer your question exactly, but it looks an awful lot like a Gibson archtop or a Gretsch.  You can poke around either of their websites to see guitars that look pretty similar to the one in the picture.  There are particular models of Gibson & Gretsch that have the diagonal bridge piece that appears in the movie -- Gretsch calls it a ""chromatic tailpiece"".  I didn't see that Gibson had a particular name for their version but they definitely have guitars sporting that same shape.\n\nThe one thing I'll agree with you about is that unless it's an anachronism (a modern guitar that doesn't belong in the time period depicted in the movie), it's not an electric guitar -- you can clearly see there's no obvious ""soapbar"" pickup like there would be on an archtop electric guitar (there are sneaky mics/pickups in acoustic guitars today, but I can't believe that was available then)."
What is a good entry-level road bike to purchase?,"For $1500, you're starting to get out of the ""entry-level"" stage. I have a Trek 1000 and absolutely love it. I've used it for century rides, triathlons and duathlons no problem. The Trek 1000 was about $900 CDN. The only difference in the bikes up to the $1500 range is the shifters are usually a little better (they don't stretch as easily, which makes shifting cleaner for longer). The weight and wheels are basically the same. \n\nIf you want to trim 30 sec off your race time, you might consider the more expensive bikes. But, you should be an elite athlete to really notice the difference. \n\nI'd go for a $1000 bike and spend the rest on pumps (road and home), spare tires, some nice cycling clothes, tools and a bike computer. Maybe even a trainer for home use."
Who holds the single season rushing yards in NFL?,"While it is true that Eric Dickerson holds the single season *total* rushing yards record, he accomplished this in a 16-game season. On the other hand, O.J. Simpson is the only player in NFL history to break the 2,000 yard barrier in a single 14-game season. O.J. Simpson gained 143 yards per game in his record-breaking season, while Dickerson only gained 131 yards per game in his. So, the answer depends on whether you are interested in total yards or yards per game."

Though she gained her greatest professional fame as a golfer, she rivalled Jim Thorpe in her remarkable ability to excel at nearly any sport. She began as a basketball All-American, then won two track and field golds at the 1932 Olympics. Next she turned professional and began touring the country, exhibiting her prowess in track, swimming, tennis, baseball, and even billiards. In 1935 Zaharias took up golf and excelled at that, too, winning 82 tournaments in a 20-year career. She was only 42 when she died of cancer in 1956."""
Could a very powerful directional microphone pickup sounds from the past?,"In a sense, any microphone is picking up sounds from the past, due to the speed of sound. This is similar to what you mentioned with radio telescopes.\n\nThe main differences are 1) velocity -- light moves at about 1 foot per nanosecond while sound moves around 1 foot per 1/1000 second, and 2) that sound moving though a medium diffuses quite rapidly. Something really loud, like thunder, you might hear from 20-30 seconds away. For normal, everyday sounds, the delay won't be more than maybe a few tenths of a second."

What was the first currency ever used?,"The earliest form of currency used was large stones that could be used to get food and meat in exchange - this was during the stone age. Before this there was a barter of goods (so i am not considering it currency)\nLarge stones which were round were considered more valuable since they were more difficult to obtain\n\nThe first recorded accounts of currency date back to 2000 BCE and silver or metal tokens were used to represent a stored value of grain. Also these were useful to ensure that a shipment of commodities arrived with the same goods that were shipped\n\nPaper money was used in the 18th century, but only in the late 18th and through the 19th century was a central monetary authority created in various states that had a virtual monopoly of creating bank-notes that had to be accepted as legal tender everywhere (Prior to this, the one accepting payments could refuse the payment if it was not in a currency which  had been predetermined before the loan or in general use: Note gold and silver were widely used as legal tender)"

what are the materials that can be used to produce laser beam?,"Materials that form an inverse energy distribution?  Not quite.\n\nThere are three basic components for getting a laser to work.  First, one needs an excitation source (pumping source) such as a flashlamp, an electrical spark, etc.  Second, one needs a material (the gain medium) which can exhibit what's known as population inversion - the capacity for a material to raise the electron energy level from the lower to the upper energy states.  Nearly all materials will exhibit this behavior with some more efficiently than others.  Finally, one needs to direct the stimulated energy by using a resonator.\n\nThere are many combinations of pump sources, lasing materials and optical configurations depending on the intended use.  There are solid state (ruby, Nd:YAG), gas (nitrogen, helium-neon) and semiconductor (gallium-arsenide) lasers that come in a variety of wavelengths (colors) to choose from, again, depending on what you want to do with it.\n\nJust a little bit of background: My degree is in Physics, and I've been working in the lasers and electro-optics field for the past 10+ years.

Is there any proven evidence that Mars at some point in the past had microscopic life?,"The answer to your question is no.  There is no absolutely definitive evidence to date.  We do have very strong evidence that significant amounts of water once existed on the Martian surface, and some recent results show that Martian water may still exist below ground, and under heavy packs of ice.    There are many scientists who believe that Mars once had a thicker atmosphere, which would have made it a considerably wetter and warmer place.  Given this, and the ability for solar system bodies to seed each other via ejecta from large impacts, Mars could very possibly have been seeded by Earth or vice versa many billions of years ago.  Still, we're not sure if life exists or every existed there.    The most recent chapter was the recent discovery of methane there.  Methane can be created by non-biological processes, but we have not observed the right conditions for this on Mars.  Another possible explanation would be a biological origin for the gas, potentially from colonies of microscopic organisms in the soil.    Given our current rate of deepening understanding, we will likely solve this mystery sometime in the next 50 years, but as of now we simply don't have enough evidence to constitute ""proof"""

What is programming?,"Programming is instructing a computer to do something for you with the help of a programming language. The role of a programming language can be described in two ways:\n\n   1. Technical: It is a means for instructing a Computer to perform Tasks\n   2. Conceptual: It is a framework within which we organize our ideas about things and processes. \n\nAccording to the last statement, in programming we deal with two kind of things:\n\n    * data, representing ``objects'' we want to manipulate\n    * procedures, i.e. ``descriptions'' or ``rules'' that define how to manipulate data. \n\nAccording to Abelson and Sussman ([ABELSON, 1985, 4,])\n\n    ``.....we should pay particular attention to the means that the language provides for combinign simple ideas to form more complex ideas. Every language has three mechanisms for accomplishing this:\n\n    primitive expressions, which represent the simplest entities with which the language is concerned\n\n    means of combination, by which compound expressions are built from simple ones, and\n\n    means of abstraction, by which compound objects can be named and manipulated as units.''\n\nA programming lanugage should both provide means to describe primitive data and procedures and means to combine and abstract those into more complex ones.\n\nThe distinction between data and procedures is not that clear cut. In many programming languages, procedures can be passed as data (to be applied to ``real'' data) and sometimes processed like ``ordinary'' data. Conversely ``ordinary'' data can be turned into procedures by an evaluation mechanism."

"If God is both all loving and all powerful, how can he/she/it allow suffering to exist?","Frankly, the answers thus far show a complete lack of understanding of basic theodicy and even the Christian Bible.  Assuming that – as a Christian – you buy into Job’s tale as at least allegorical, then there is acknowledgement that you cannot know the mind of G-d.  To attempt to do so is itself blasphemous.  To attempt know the mind of G-d is to be G-d, yet we are admonished when G-d responds to Job, not with an explanation for Job's suffering but rather with a question: Where was Job when G-d created the world?\n\nAnd it was said:\nJob 40 \n1 ¶ And Jehovah answered Job and said:\n2 Shall a reprover contend with the Almighty? He who reproves God, let him answer it.\n3 Then Job answered Jehovah and said:\n4 Behold, I am vile! What shall I answer You? I will put my hand to my mouth.\n5 Once I have spoken, but I will not answer; yea, twice, but I will go no further.\n6 ¶ And Jehovah answered Job out of the tempest and said:\n7 Now gird up your loins like a man, and I will question you; and you make Me to know.\n8 Will you also set aside My judgment; will you condemn Me so that you may be justified?\n9 And have you an arm like God; or can you thunder with a voice like His?\n10 Adorn yourself with majesty now, and with grandeur, and clothe yourself with glory and honor;\n11 pour forth the outbursts of your anger; yea, look on everyone who is proud, and bring him down low;\n12 look on everyone who is proud, and humble him, and trample the wicked in their place;\n13 hide them in the dust together; bind their faces in darkness.\n\nKnow that to contend to know G-d is to set yourself above him.\n\nA previous answer blasphemed: “G-d desires that we do not suffer, but as a result of the choices men made we have suffering.”\n\nAnd also: “But there is a plan to alleviate the suffering. And that is through redemption.”\n\nLies.  \n\nAnd “John 3:16”?!  I think that means “go Broncos.”\n\nAn alternative explanation is the easy one:  there is no G-d.  You either believe that, or you blaspheme in the attempt to understand Him."

Would it seriously affect my chances of getting into college if I don't have a high SAT score?,"Unfortunately, the answer is ""Maybe"".\n\nIf you are trying to get into a top tier school with very selective admissions, then a low SAT/ACT score is virutally a ""kiss of death"".\n\nHowever, if you are looking at most state univerisities, then a low SAT/ACT score is not too bad.  You may have to take a few remedial courses.\n\nMOST IMPORTANT!!  A low SAT/ACT score WILL NOT stop you from going to college.  And, in the long run, it really doesn't matter very much where you get your undergraduate degree (as long as the college/university is ""regionally accredited"").  For example, a degree in education from ANY regionally NCATE accredited school will get you hired as a teacher.  An engineering degree from ANY ABET accredited school will get you hired as an engineer.\n\nEnjoy"

Why do we get hiccups?,"Hiccups are sudden, involuntary contractions of the diaphragm muscle.

What are the best ways to incentivise people to answer questions here?,"I think that, though counterintuitive, one of the most effective ways was to limit the number of questions a user can answer per day. A casual user will still answer the 11th question the next day, and more hard-core users will try to answer as many questions as allowed. For this to work, the limit has to be pretty small, at least starting out, so that it is reasonably easy for someone with other commitments to achieve it. Setting a small limit also requires users to choose which questions they most want to answer, which increases the likelihood that their answers will be useful. When more answers are useful, it increases the usefulness of the service, which in turn ""incentivizes"" people to answer questions. And by placing a premium on the number of questions a user can answer per unit time, the likelihood that the user will throw him/herself into it full-throttle but then quickly become bored is also decreased.\n\nSee my answer to the question, ""Why am I only allowed to answer 10 questions a day here?"":\n\nhttp://answers.yahoo.com/question/?qid=1005120801767\n\nOn the issue of the term ""incentivize""--it is shameless corporate-speak, but it describes an impersonal, profit-oriented process. To attempt to use softer language to describe something that is inherently cold, calculating, and opportunistic (though not necessarily bad or wrong) would constitute euphemism, and would be both misleading and dangerous."

How many U.S. states are named after kings or queens?,"Things get a little sticky in the counting process here.  See, the Virginias were one until 1863, so do we count them as one or two?  Officially there was only one Virginia to name at the time, but I think we're looking to count how many states are named after kings or queens today, in the here and now, right?  So the number I think you're looking for is 7!    Georgia - Latin or English - After King George II of England  Louisiana - French - After King Louis XIV of France  Maryland - English - After Queen Henrietta Maria of England  North Carolina - Latin - After King Charles II of England  South Carolina - Latin - After King Charles II of England  Virginia - Latin or English - The virgin country (or country of the virgin), after Queen Elizabeth I of England  West Virginia - Latin or English - The western transmontane, counties of Virginia.  See Virginia, above.    Unless, of course, we want to squeeze New York in there too, because it was named after the Duke of York, who later became the King of England... James II, see.  I'll leave that one up to you.  Best,    `k."
Should cell phones and PDAs be allowed in school? Why or why not?,"I don't think Cell Phones and PDAs should be allowed since students may spend lot of time playing with (and showing off) the  cool features of these gadgets.

How do you bring up the salary subject during an interview if the interviewer didn't bring it up?,"Large companies usually have an HR person coordinating the interview for the hiring manager. In such a situation, its better to bring up the question with the HR person. After the first round of interviews, if you are being called back for further interviews, then I think this is a good time to bring it up with the recruiter. \n\nIf there is no recruiter involved, then in my opinion you should not bring up the compensation question till you get the sense that you are being seriously considered. The exception in my mind is that if you are trying to make some decisions/choices while interviewing for multiple positions then you can candidly bring it up after your first interview is done."
What is Indie genre?,"The basic answer is indie (or independent) music is music that is released on smaller labels that operate independently from the mainstream music business.\n\nBut more often ""indie"" refers to a specific genre of contemporary music that is based on combining aesthetics of classic rock, punk, garage and art rock.  I first heard the term indie rock starting to get used in the late 80s to early 90s to describe the music that was popular on college radio stations at the time.  I don't think the definition has changed much since then, but the types of music that fit in this umbrella have become more diverse, both in style and popularity."

Can you give me tips on how to get over an ex?,"Surround yourself with friends, family, people who love you. Go on a trip to clear your head. It doesn't have to be expensive, just go camping with some pals or take a day trip to a beautiful outdoor spot. Take up a new hobby. Now is the perfect time to start doing something you didn't have time for before. Exercise. Read humorous and uplifting books (NO romance novels!). Go to the movies (NO sequels to movies you saw with your ex!). Buy fresh fruits and vegetables and make a delicious homecooked meal for your best friends. Get out in the world, get some fresh air, stretch your legs.  Take some time to get to know yourself and figure out what you want in life.\nWhatever you do, DON'T wallow in self-pity at home. DON'T get drunk and call your ex! DON'T write your ex emails begging to take you back. DON'T hang out in front of your ex's house hoping to bump into him/her. DON'T jump into another relationship right away."

How should I act on a date?,"Some fundamentals for men: talk 30-40% and let her talk the rest of the time.  Open doors, pick up the tab, and make eye contact.    One big mistake I see guys make, and one that I made back in my dating days, is making the date seem more like an interview.    Sure, you want to get to know the person, but that doesn't have to be crammed into one night of Q&A.  Make an effort to strike up casual conversation, and talk about things that are in the moment.  Remember, people evaluate how much they like or dislike you based upon the quality of the experience they have in your presence.  If you are able to show people a good time, they will be attracted to you.  If you make people feel like they are interviewing for a job, they will not be so keen on another date.

How do I protect myself from credit card scam?,"If you dont want to pay for the services such as bank of america here are a couple of things you can do to reduce your chances of your identity being stolen\n\n1. shred all your mail\n\n2. By law, you can request 1 copy of your credit history every year from each of the three credit history companies at  www.annualcreditreport.com\n    I suggest you stagger your requests to each of them i.e. request experian first then 4 months later request another report from transunion, and another 4 months later from equifax. this way you get a free report every 4 months. \n\n3. dispute anything that is wrong (most common: credit cards forget to tell the credit history guys that you closed your account or paid all your loans in full)\n\n4. when online, try to use virtual credit numbers to make the purchases. this facility is available for citicard customers, and maybe amex. the virtual numbers are good only for 1 use, and useless after that. so if someone steals that, it is useless.\n\n5. when buying something offline, save your receipts, and make sure your statement is accurate. (a favourite scam is to charge maybe 50cents on a statement, that way you dont notice it, but a scammer who charges 10,000 card owners 50cents a month can make $5000 a month no sweat -- and you dont even realize it)\n\n6. also dont forget to shread any credit card solicitations you dont plan to use."

"What does ""folksonomy"" mean?","Folksonomy is a word formed from a combination of ""folk"" and ""taxonomy"".  It's a recently developed concept of the general public categorizing information according to what's most useful for the masses, and is considered in opposition to the sometimes more formal classification systems created by an entity such as the Library of Congress or Yahoo!.\n\nFolksonomies are often implemented using tags.  An advantage of tags over a hierarchical taxonomy is that it's easy to apply multiple tags to a single item, rather than having to decide which category to place the item in."
Are Wireless Networks Secure?,"Unfortunately, no computer network is truly secure. It's always theoretically possible for eavesdroppers to view or ""snoop"" the traffic on any network, and it's often possible to add or ""inject"" unwelcome traffic as well. However, some networks are built and managed much more securely than others. For both wired and wireless networks alike, the real question to answer becomes - is it secure enough?\n\nWireless networks add an extra level of security complexity compared to wired networks. Whereas wired networks send electrical signals or pulses of light through cable, wireless radio signals propogate through the air and are naturally easier to intercept. Signals from most wireless LANs (WLANs) pass through exterior walls and into nearby streets or parking lots.\n\nNetwork engineers and other technology experts have closely scrutinized wireless network security because of the open-air nature of wireless communications. The practice of wardriving, for example, exposed the vulnerabilities of home WLANs and accelerated the pace of security technology advances in home wireless equipment.\n\nOverall, conventional wisdom holds that wireless networks are now ""secure enough"" to use in the vast majority of homes, and  many businesses. Security features like 128-bit WEP and WPA can scramble or ""encrypt"" network traffic so that its contents can not easily be deciphered by snoopers. Likewise, wireless routers and access points (APs) incorporate access control features such as MAC address filtering that deny network requests from unwanted clients.\n\nObviously every home or business must determine for themselves the level of risk they are comfortable in taking when implementing a wireless network. The better a wireless network is administered, the more secure it becomes. However, the only truly secure network is the one never built!"
Is it legal to publicly rate medical doctors?,"NOT LEGAL ADVICE:\nAs long as you make it clear that you are offering your opinion, then your ratings will be protected by the US Constitution's 1st Amendment protection for free speech. (You are in the US, right?)  \n\nIf you falsely or misleadingly indicate that your rankings are based on something other than your opinion, then there may be liability for libel or even fraud.  However, if the rankings are based on some criteria other than your opinion, and you are explicit about the basis for the rankings and truthful about the results, you are similarly protected.  \n\nShouldn't be a difference for medical or mechanical rankings. But, keep in mind that if people rely on your endorsement and then something goes wrong, they may seek to hold you liable.  The best protection against this is to be explicit about your sources (opinion, etc.) and have a lawyer advise you.\n\nGood luck!"

What makes a teacher want to leave their profession?,"It seems like a lot of factors contribute to teacher attrition (leaving the profession). But apparently new teachers are most likely to abandon ship.\n\nAccording to a 1986 survey, more than 2/3 of all beginning teachers will have left during their first four years of teaching and 40-50% of them will leave during the first seven years of their career. (Huling-Austin, 1986).\n\nThese are some factors likely most likely to affect the attrition of new teachers:\n\n1) Beginning teachers are unable to cope with teaching problems like discipline, difficulties with parents, and lack of sufficient or appropriate teaching materials.\n\n2) Beginners are often given the most difficult teaching assignments. \n\n3) Novice teachers often receive little or no support after leaving the university and find that their teacher education programs ill-prepared them for the realities of teaching.\n\nOther factors, such as salary, affect attrition rates, but perhaps the fact that beginning teachers lack adequate support and resources to handle such a large responsibility (basically parenting your students) is where the responsbility lies."
How do I tone my butt? What's the best exercise for butts?,"Where do you live?  I have been taking a class called ""Core Fusion"" for almost a year now, and it has been the most effective thing I've done in terms of toning my body up (all over, not just butt).  It is offered at Exhale Spa, which has locations in Boston, New York, Chicago, Venice (CA) and Santa Monica - and I believe they'll be opening up a Dallas location in 2006.  \n\nIf you are not near an Exhale, yoga has a lot of postures that will help you tone your butt muscles (maybe check out a local gym or studio?).  So does Pilates (which I'm not really a fan of - I find it boring).  \n\nThere are also the old ""standbys"" of squats and lunges (you can get added benefit by integrating props or machines - i.e. do the lunges or squats on the Smith Machine - the one that has the bar with adjustable weights that you square on the back of your shoulders while doing the exercises, or stand with your back to the wall, place a physioball behind you and roll it up and down the wall with your back as you squat).  One important thing to remember about squats and lunges is not to let your knees go forward of your ankles - that puts a lot of strain on your knees and sets you up for unpleasant injuries.  \n\nIf you go to the gym, some of the weight machines they should have can be effective butt toners - like the leg/hamstring curl machines."
"Can I use 26"" mountain bike rims for my cyclocross-frame bike?","The 26"" wheels won't work. They're slightly smaller in diameter than a 700c wheel–that's what cyclocross frames are built to take. Back in the late 80's/early 90's you could get clamp-on cantilever brake mounts from Moots, but I don't know that they make those anymore. And regardless, if you were to do that, you'd also be dropping the overall height of your bike. This in turn would mean that your bottom bracket would also be lower to the ground. That's counterproductive in terms of cyclocross applications, where you want a higher bottom bracket than you would on a road bike (for clearence issues).\n\nThere's some good general information on equipment on Dave Carr's Cross Page (listed below). Good luck!"

If we then remove proper names, capitalized words, abbreviations, contractions, and possessives, it's about 14,000 words (from ""abandoning"" to ""zygodactyl"").\n\nScrabble dictionaries usually have considerably fewer 10-letter words, because they remove words that can't be formed in normal gameplay.

Which part-time MBA program will add value to a software developer with 15 years experience?,"Wow.  There are some pretty negative answers in this thread.\n\nPick a good program.  Pick a highly rated program.  The brand *is* part of the value of an MBA, and frankly, the lower rated programs aren't that much cheaper.  Here in the Bay Area, Haas (Berkeley) has a great ranking (top 5 in part time rankings, recently been in the top 10 for full time).  I am currently a student at Haas (in the PT program), and I can't understand why people would pick a different program in this region.  Stanford, unfortunately, doesn't have a part time program.\n\nI agree with the previous poster who said you need to have an idea what you want out of it.  Go in with a plan on how you're going to get value from the MBA, and just from being a student.  I'm amazed at the access I get just by being an MBA student.  It opens a lot of doors.  But you need to be very goal directed to get this value.\n\nI can't agree with the person who said networking in a PT program isn't good.  As a current PT student, I have an *amazing* network of rising stars at a number of bay area companies, right now.  Comparing notes with some co-workers who are recent graduates from the FT programs at Wharton, Stanford, Columbia, it's clear that my network is broader, more active, and more useful right now than their networks.\n\nSo - to your actual question.  If you are in the Bay Area, pick Berkeley (I'm biased, obviously).  Really, you can gain a lot of value from any part time MBA program.  But talk to people, figure out how *you* can gain value from an MBA, and then go from there."
Are humans still evolving?,"Evolution is ever-present as always. You could argue it's rate is a function of environment change. So to answer what's driving human evolution you need to look at the human environment as part of the equation. Extreme evolution happens when an organism's environment changes and it cannot escape it. As a previous post mentioned, humans now have the ability to easily move around the world and escape a 'bad' environment. So evolution may indeed have slowed, but it is not dead. Some cataclysmic change affecting the whole planet, if it doesn't kill the species completely, will certainly speed up the evolutionary process when you compare the human race a few generations either side of said event.\n\nGiven that evolution is the result of genetic mutation/favoritism during sexual reproduction are we seeing those more desirable for sex setting the evolutionary path while environment change is minimized by our ability to control it or escape it?\n\nIs average height an example of this? It would certainly seem that humans are growing taller on average, and what western (cultural bias) woman does not want a tall mate for example. It should be noted however that who we think is desirable for sex is very culturally dependent and may not lead to the best long-term (breeding) prospects for an individual conceived to those parents."

what is a double layer DVD burner?,Movie DVDs you buy in the store can contain up to 8.5 gigabytes of data.  This is because they are pressed (as opposed to burned) dual-layer DVDs (also called DVD-9).  The recordable DVD+-Rs that have been on the market for a while a single-layer DVD-5s and can store  up to 4.7 gigabytes.  This disrepency is why programs that copy movie DVDs need to compress the DVD content after unencrypting it before they can be burned to a normal DVD.  Recently new DVD burners and media were introduced that allowed people to burn DVD-9 DVDs reasonably affordably.\n\nSo a double-layer DVD burner is one that is capable of burning 8.5 gigabyte DVD-9 format DVDs.\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dvd#Technical_information
Does anyone know a good apartment rental agency around Washington DC?,"I've had personal experience with Archstone apartments and Summit (just bought by Camden) apartments in the past two years. While neither one is stellar, both were acceptable. Both of these were in the Northern Virginia area - bedroom communities for D.C. \n\nBest of luck apartment hunting! The housing market around here is absolutely insane."
How do you negotiate a job offer?,"At the point you have a job offer, you are in the best position to negotiate.  This is because they have already spent the money to get all the way through the recruiting process, and if they were to start again from scratch it might cost them an additional 20-50k to bring a different candidate into the position.  Add to this the cost to the project of having an unfilled position for a longer period than expected, and you'll find there is a pretty large margin for you to negotiate where their net costs will be lower if they acquiese to your requests.\n\nThe other factor is the overall job market.  In today's market, where employment is picking up in many sectors you're in a good spot to negotiate.\n\nNow the right place to phrase things is to describe competitive offers (hopefully you'll have some) in terms of their relative advantage.  If one of your alternative offers pays more, you can allude to this vaguely.  Even if they do not, you can allude to the relative advantages (the types of challenge, the convience of the commute etc).  This will create a more competitive landscape where your potential employer feels like they need to overcome other offers (and not that you are simply greedy and would like more cash).\n\nUnless the potential employer has really lowballed you (i.e. you are well below industry averages for your area), you should shoot for a modest counter-proposal of 5-15%.  Put this out there with clear timelines for when they need to respond, and other forms you might accept (signing bonus, trading-up level/rank, etc).\n\nYou should stay professional throughout the process, even if your offer is rejected.  Employers know that this is the right time to bring these things up, so don't worry about burning bridges by putting a request out there at this stage.\n\nOk.  Hope that helps!"

Ship times seem a little longer than Netflix, and pricing is higher (for good reason).\n\nI love the packaging (in addition to the Netflix style paper envelopes there's a hard cardboard shield) and I've never received a defective game.  The pre-owned purchase program is also a nice touch."

Will there be a third kill bill?,"there have been widespread rumors about Tarantino's desire to revisit the character of the Bride in a third installment. most of these stemmed from an interview published in Entertainment Weekly, in which Quentin expressed his desire to revisit the Bride in 15 years:    ""The star will be Vernita Green's (Vivica A. Fox's) daughter, Nikki (Ambrosia Kelley). I've already got the whole mythology: Sofie Fatale (Julie Dreyfus) will get all of Bill's money. She'll raise Nikki, who'll take on The Bride,"" he says. ""Nikki deserves her revenge every bit as much as The Bride deserved hers. I might even shoot a couple of scenes for it now so I can get the actresses while they're this age.""    Tarantino's idea is an excellent one, and in tune with the ambitious nature of the Kill Bill project itself. however, it is important to note that Tarantino is well known for announcing interest in projects that could never see the light of day, so there is no certainty that this will come about."

"What is the meaning behind the song ""the reflex"" by Duran Duran?","From the sourced website:\n\n""The Reflex"", Duran Duran\nI, being a HUGE Duran Duran fan, can shed some light on this song. Back in the 80's when I had the word book for the album and meanings, this song simply was about a person being on stage, forgetting words and making them up as he went along. Take for instance ""I'm on a ride and I want to get off/but they won't slow down around the bout, I sold the Renoir and the tv set/don't want to be around when this gets out"". Hope this can shed some light that not all Duran Duran songs are about sex."
"As a novice runner, how many weeks/months do I need to properly train for a marathon?","The answer, of course, varies for each individual depending on how fit you are, how often do you train and what your goals are. \n\nIf you are very aggressive, you can do it in 28 weeks. Start by walking, slowly, for a\nmile. Two days later, walk 1.5 miles. Every other day, increase the distance by half a mile until you get to 3 miles. Rest your muscles on the ""off"" day. Hold that distance on Tuesday and Thursday, while increasing by one additional mile on your weekend session (either Sat or Sun).\n\nOnce the long walk reaches 10 miles you can cut the distance in half every other weekend, increasing the long one by 2 miles each time. When the long one\ngets to 18 miles, you can do it every third weekend, covering 8-9 miles on the ""short"" weekends.\n\nAfter about the third week of training, insert a one min jog into your runs, after 4 min of walking. If this feels fine after 2 weeks, drop to 3walk/1jog. After 3 more weeks, drop to 2-1. If all goes well after another 3 weeks or so you could go to 1-1 during the week, and 2walk/1jog on the long run.\n\nFind the ratio that works best for you, that will leave you feeling strong at the end, and recovering fast from these long ones. The pace for all of\nthese should be very, very slow."
Which religion is the right one?,"None.  There is no God. \n\nReligion is a primitive attempt at understanding how the world works. It has been completely replaced by the Scientific Method, which is the greatest discovery of all time.\n\nThere is no more evidence for the existence of God than there is for the existence of leprechauns. Better to spend our time enjoying our wonderful world and helping our fellow beings instead of arguing about which brand of imaginary supernatural friend is the ""right one""."
How can I cure my hiccups?,"This is to expand on another person's answer, which was correct but missing some important steps or explanation.  This cure is a bonafide medical and scientific cure.  The get rid of hiccups, you must deprive oxygen from the muscle that is causing hiccups. No oxygen to that muscle, it can't burn energy, no energy, no hiccups.\n\nSo what needs to be done is to simulate DROWNING.  We must trick the body to think it is drowning.  This will cause it to divert oxygen from unimportant parts of the body, like that muscle causing hiccups, to more important parts like the heart, the brain, the organs, etc.  \n\nSo...take a glass of water, slowly exhale.  Pinch your nose.  Take about 5 or 6 sips of water (or more until you can't take it any longer) from the glass...making sure you are taking in WATER ONLY. Do NOT sip any air along with the water.  Stop.  \n\nHold your breath for a few seconds, and inhale slowly. The hiccups should disappear. If not repeat.  \n\nI have found this works 90% of the time.  It only fails to work if there really is something stuck in your throat that really needs to be expelled by hiccups or coughing, or drinking lots of water."
Why do Canadians Celebrate Thanks giving?,"Canadians celebrate Thanksgiving on the 2nd Monday of October.\n\n""The farmers in Europe held celebrations at harvest time. They filled a curved goat's horn with fruit and grain to give thanks for their good fortune and the abundance of food. They brought this tradition when they came to Canada.\n\nDuring the American Revolution, Americans who remained loyal to England moved to Canada where they brought the customs and practices of the American Thanksgiving to Canada.""\n\nMore information about the history of Canadian Thanksgiving:\n\nhttp://www.geocities.com/ouravonlea/canadian-thanksgiving.html"
What is Visual Basic?,"Visual Basic is a programming language and software development environment created by Microsoft in the 1990s primarily to make it easy for developers to create client applications on Windows. It featured an way to easily create graphical user interfaces by drawing windows and controls on the screen, and an event-driven paradigm that made it easy to attach code to meaningful events in the lifetime of an application (such as a button click).\n\nThe language was adapted to the Web with a variant called VBScript, and embedded into Microsoft Office and other applications with another variant called Visual Basic for Applications (VBA). Around the time of Windows 98's release, it became possible to create scripts written in VBScript to run on the Windows desktop.\n\nIn 2000 Microsoft introduced a new unified framework for software development called .NET. At that time Visual Basic was thoroughly revised and renamed to Visual Basic .NET. This version of the language added some capabilities, but dropped others, and was incompatible with previous versions of the language, leading some to complain that it should be been released as a separate language with a different name. Still, a great deal of Visual Basic code is in use today and large numbers of developers still use it to create client applications, Web apps, script, and macros embedded in other applications such as Microsoft Excel."
What's your definition of Web 2.0?,"The best article I've read on the subject is in the link below.

Should the A's trade Zito this off-season?,"IMHO, the A's will be traded Zito this off-season or in the middle of next season.  The ""Money-ball"" philosophy has been working for them and they will continue.  Trading Zito will also get them some good young players too."
Should high schools offer classes on SAT for all?,"I'd say yes, all high schools should offer SAT test prep. The main two reasons:\n\n1) Workers 18 and over with a bachelor’s degree earn an average of $51,206 a year, while those with a high school diploma earn $27,915. (U.S. Census Bureau). \n\nBasically, college grads earn twice as much money as high school grads. This increased income provides more security, support to raise a family, and the means for furthering ones education.\n\n2) College grads have access to better jobs as many jobs require a college degree."
which is the more powerful crime family - the corleone's or the soprano's?,"The Corleones are more powerful, hands down.\n\nand for one reason, alone: The Sopranos don't have the muscle to take out the heads of all five crime families in one swoop and live to tell about it, including the big man in Vegas and take over his operation. The Corleons are a much bigger organization with a wider network.\n\nHead to head war, \nCorleones (GF1) vs. Sopranos (S1):\nVito (or Michael) Corleone vs. Tony Soprano\nSonny vs. Christopher\nClemenza vs. Silvio\nTessio vs. Paulie\nFredo vs. Big Pussy\nBarzini vs. Junior\nand Kay vs. Carmela :-)"
Why are the Dutch so tall?,"As a dutchman, and someone who's 6'4"" I should be able to answer this one.\n\nSpecifically though there actually has been a fair amount of research around this, the average height of the dutch are indeed abover average and I've heard claims of it being ""the tallest nation in the world"".\n\nThe average dutchman is about 6'1"" (4"" taller than the avg american)\n\nResearch shows it to be a combo of genetics, disease prevention, diet (dairy, etc.) , average wealth & wellbeing, as well as the psychosocial wellbeing.. all affecting height.\n\nSo to summarize: drink your milk, get your shots, be happy and grow grow grow..oh and a bit of genetics.\n\nFrom a research report:\n\nGenetic factors are evident in marked regional differences between the north and the south of the Netherlands. In the north, boys are on average 50 mm taller and girls 20 mm taller. The populations are relatively stable, and Frisians are genetically more Scandinavian, whereas Limburgers have southern European roots. However, although boys in Turkish and Moroccan immigrant groups are about 95 mm shorter than ethnic Dutch, they are taller than in their countries of origin. Researchers point to the increase over the past 30 years in the amount of protein in the diets of the Dutch, the world's highest consumers of dairy products. \n\nMiranda Fredriks, one of the researchers in the recent study, emphasised other health and hygiene factors as well as diet--for example, the Netherlands has a 95% vaccination rate among children.\n\nLastly it's the healthcare system and wealth, every dutch person has access to the healthcare system and overall the dutch are fairly well off to being with. It's been shown that wealth has a direct impact on height.."

Should the Sharks trade Evgeni Nabokov?,"In short, no. \n\nIf they trade him now they will see minimal returns on a trade. They are dealing from a weak position. Should Nolan Schaefer get a shot? Yes. \n\nNabokov should be given a chance to rest, start Nolan for a couple of games and then get him back in there. I believe he will be able to snap out of this funk, but trading him now would be the absolute worst time for them to trade him in terms of what they could get in return."
Can animals really predict earthquakes?,"There was a PBS program 'Nature', just aired a couple of weeks ago, about whether animals can predict nature disasters like earthquakes and tsunamis. Whether animals can predict earthquakes is not conclusive. But there's a scientist in Berkeley (forgot his name) claimed he had predicted earthquakes accurately in the last few decades. What he used was simply newspaper ads on missing pets. He said normally you'd see about 10-15 missing pets ads, but before earthquakes, the missing pets ads would increase. His theory is contraversial, but it's worth a try. You may want to test that theory. \n\nThe program also mentioned about the terrible tsunami in Asia over a year ago. It mentioned none of the animals got harmed since they 'knew' the waves were coming and escaped from the disaster. \n\nOne theory is that animals can hear low frequency sound from beneath the earth, like grinding sound of moving rocks. \n\nAnyway, you'll find some interesting programs on PBS stations."

Is it important to send a thank you note after an interview?,"It is a nice touch, even in a casual workplace, to get the business cards of people you interview with, and send them a quick email thank you note.

How can I find the dhcp server on Linux ?,"There are a number of different DHCP clients that run on Linux.  Use the command ""ps ax"" to try to determine what processes are running that might have something to do with your ethernet interface.\n\nDHCPCD is a popular one.  Look to /etc/dhcpc for any files that might be there.\n\nPUMP is also a frequent program in use by some versions of RedHat Linux.  Run ""pump -i eth0 --status"" assuming your ethernet interface is eth0\n\nDHCLIENT -- run ""locate dhclient.leases"" and look into that file if you see that process running."

In the South, ""buck naked"" or ""butt naked"" means not in your house, out looking for trouble on Saturday night and wearing no clothes."
Who is the best soccer player in the world? Accordingly to FIFA and accordingly to general audience?,"the last (2004) FIFA best player of the world is Ronaldinho (playing at barcelona, don't confuse with Ronaldo, playing at Real Madrid). Read the official FIFA interview with him at http://www.fifa.com/en/mens/awards/gala.html\n\nAlso, TODAY (november 28, 2005), Ronaldinho is going to receive the ""Ballon D'Or"" (golden ball), prize created by the french magazine French Football --http://www.francefootball.fr/ -- in 1956 to distinguish the best player of the european leagues. The complete list of winners of this prize is at: http://www.francefootball.fr/FF/ballon_or/index_bo.html\n\nNow, the general audience... this is tough, since there are many players that could be the best at any time (henry, lampard, ronaldo, ronaldinho, zidane -getting older, though-, kaká, eto'o, ...). But truth is that, at this moment of the season, Ronaldinho is one step above the rest, and playing in the current best team (barcelona) helps him a lot."

"In the quest for dazzling teeth, how harmful are teeth whitening strips?","Depends on your teeth.  I used Crest Whitestrips for a time, and they worked really well (I definitely noticed a difference in the whiteness of my teeth).  However, they irritated my gums to the point where my dentist told me to stop using them and they made my teeth super sensitive to cold and hot (i.e. eating ice cream or drinking tea was painful).  I've never done the laser whitening/Brite Smile, but I've seen those treatments work wonders for folks who have (they are not cheap though).  I would advise trying the strips (making sure to abide by the time guidelines) - you will like the effects of them (they do really work) and if they don't bother your teeth/gums, you should be able to continue use."
"Can someone *simply* explain what a stock ""short"" is?","Shorting a stock (or selling short) ideally works like this:\n\nWhen you think a stock is going to go down...\n1. You borrow shares of stock you don't own, typically from your broker.\n2. You sell those shares at today's price.\n3. You wait for the stock to go down.\n4. You buy the same number of shares back at a lower price.\n5. You return the borrowed shares.\n6. You pocket the difference between the buying and selling price.\nSteps 1 & 5 are actually done automatically when you issue a short sale order with a broker.\n\nThe advantage of shorting is that you can make money when stocks are going down.  (With a normal stock purchases, you only make money if the stock goes up.)\n\nThe disadvantage is that in theory, you could lose an unlimited amount of money.  For example, if the stock goes up to five times its original value, you've just lost four times your investment.  (With a regular stock purchase, the most you can lose is the amount you originally invested.)"
Is there a cure for malaria?,"There are several means of successfully treating malaria if contracted, yet malaria is still one of the leading causes of preventable death in the developing world.  The reason is that most of these people are too poor to afford even basic preventative measures like bednets (which keeps malarial misquitoes from biting children in their sleep).\n\nBednets are important step to reducing the impact of malaria, because it is much more expensive to treat malaria once it is contracted than it is to prevent it via bednets, removing standing water, etc.\n\nThere are some efforts to find cheaper alternative treatments as well, including one promising one that comes from Chinese herbal medicine. \n\nhttp://archives.cnn.com/2002/WORLD/asiapcf/east/11/26/health.malaria/\n\nI've also attached a CDC (center for disease control) article that describes some of the anti-malarial drugs currently being used."

Any learning center that offers Personalized tutoring programs in Portland?,"The answer above is a great idea.  Of course, this will only work if you don't mind non-person to person tutoring.\n\nI would contact your local high schools and see if there are any tutors that will tutor your kid.  It might help both the high school student (elective credit) and your kid (because young kids look up to high school students).\n\nNewspapers are always advertising people looking for work such as nannies, care-takers, and yes...even tutors.\n\nI would try the high schools first.\n\nHere are a list of tutorint centers in the Portland area:\nhttp://www.anysubject.com/portland-tutors.asp\nhttp://portland.craigslist.com/lss/\nhttp://www.mindsinmotiontutoring.com/"

What does Sarbaines Oxley compliant mean?,"The Sarbanes-Oxley act was sponsored by Senator Paul Sarbanes and Representative Michael Oxley, and is a response to the auditing scandals surrounding Enron, WorldCom, and others.  Essentially it aims to protect investors by requiring public companies to adhere to certain standards around auditor independence, information integrity, and greater financial disclosure.\n\nFrom an IT perspective S-Ox compliance revolves around preserving information and ensuring that the systems that maintain financial records are capturing all the correct data.  Of course, S-Ox compliance can be rather complex and counterintuitive, so there are plenty of consultants who earn a living by making companies S-Ox compliant, as it is a requirement for all public companies."

Are expensive urethane golf balls e.g. Titleist Pro V1 worth it for the normal club golfer?,"I find that it does. The Pro V1 for me is the best ball out there in terms of providing durability, distance and control. I've also used Nike and Top Flight and always come back to the Pro V1. But, the real answer is how the ball reacts to your swing and game. I recommend playing a few rounds with different brands."

What is the difference between dating and in a relationship?,"The difference is the level of commitment. ""Dating"" connotes a casual thing, not necessarily exclusive. When a person says ""I'm dating Bill"" instead of ""Bill is my boyfriend"", you can probably guess the relationship is relatively new and no commitment has been made. \nWhen you've decided you're in a relationship, you'll probably start referring to one another as boyfriend/girlfriend. You'll introduce each other to your close friends and family. You'll likely spend a LOT of time together, and may take it for granted that you'll see each other certain nights and weekends. Depending on your lifestyle, you may agree to make your relationship exclusive and stop seeing other people.\nIf you're uncomfortable discussing taking things to ""the next level"" you're probably just dating, and not quite ready for a relationship."
Where can I find a list of important events from a year in history?,The link below would take you to a list of important events.
"Why in the House of Commons does the P.M. often say ""I refer the hon. gentleman to the answer I gave earlier""?","Another reason is that the P.M.'s responses are scripted in advance, where at all possible.  Questions from the House--especially from the opposition--are designed to get him off his game and distract him from the prepared text, in the hope of making him look bad.  (A similar game is played by many television correspondents: ""If the interviewee gives a pat answer, ask the question ten more times.  Play only the most emotive response."")  By referring the questioner back to the earlier, prepared answer, the P.M. short-circuits this tactic.  Stilted, but effective."

Why is SAT important?,"Most colleges and universities use your SAT score as a factor in determining admissions. While it may be possible to get a waiver in some cases, your chances at consideration are much greater if you take the SAT. \nAnother reason to take the SAT is for financial aid consideration. Grants and scholarships, especially those run by the school or private organizations, often take SAT scores along with grade point average into account."

what is the most popular programming laguage in use today?,"This is a tough one, and no doubt a potential debate point in most cases.   I would really doubt that C# has any real future.  \n\nJava, on the other hand, is written in C.  Most modern development platforms have a foundation in C.  \n\nIf this question is to choose a language path for school, I think either Java or C is fine.  Though I would say that you will become a better programmer if you have a more detailed understanding of what is ""under the hood"".  In that case C (and a bit of assembly isn't bad to at least take a look at).  The more higher-level you go, the less you can ultimately do."
What are the odds of life on another planet?,"Answers to this question can vary greatly, but a good framework to think about it is the Drake Equation.  Developed by Frank Drake and Carl Sagan, it runs through some of the key factors that will effect the viability of life on other planets.  As we learn more about extrasolar planets and astrobiology, we are getting better limits on some of the parameters in the equation, but especially when it comes to the terms where we look for intelligent life that can last long enough to contact other species, we have very little data to go on.\n\nSo when it comes down to the last few terms you need to take it all with a grain of salt.\n\nIf you are simply talking about life, I think recent discoveries have made the likelihood very high.  The discovery of many extrasolar planets including some that are closer to Earth size means that there are specific places we can point to where life may have formed or be forming.  Even in stranger systems that feature planets several times Jupiter's mass, it is possible that a terrestrial satellite of such a large planet could harbor the right conditions for life.\n\nIt's a fun thing to work through the Drake equation yourself.  Since the last few terms are more subjective (at least until we get more data), it's fun to play with it and see where you stand.\n\nThe best guess that scientists have put forward right now is:\n\nN = 10 × 0.5 × 2 × 0.33 × 1×10-7 × 0.01 × 67 = 2.211×10-7 = 0.0000002211\n\nwhere N is the number of intelligent extraterrestrial civilizations that might come to communicate with us in a year.  \n\nTo get the number of planets that reach a point of harboring life (not intelligent) in a year, we just take the first 4 terms:\n\n10 × 0.5 × 2 × 0.33 = 3.3\n\nSo about 3.3 new planets reach the point where life forms per year."
What is your opinion on online dating?,"It works.  I met my bf of almost 3 years through online dating.  That doesn't mean I didn't meet alot of incompatible people.  I used online dating on and off for about a year before I met him.  \n\nOnline dating is just another way to meet people, but it shouldn't be the only way you meet people.  If you're banking on it working, it probably won't because you've invested too much emotionally and your expectations will colour your experience.  It works when you stop hoping each person you meet will be the one and instead, decide to just have fun with the experience, regardless of the outcome.  Yes, even a bad date can be fun.  Think of the anecdotes you can share with your friends.\n\nI find it takes a few weeks to get a feel for how things work.  Then, it's up and down for awhile depending on who you come into contact with.  When it doesn't feel fun anymore, TAKE A BREAK.  Come back in a few months.  Change your profile to reflect how you're feeling.  \n\nIt's important that you feel good about yourself or you won't attract the people you want because who wants to be with someone who's down on themselves?  Online dating is really a reflection of how you're  feeling.  When you feel good about yourself, your online experience improves.  When you feel bad, it tends to be a not so good experience.  \n\nI was about to pull my dating profile because I found I was meeting lots of people through offline methods.  However, my friend pointed out that it wasn't costing me anything (financially or emotionally) if I just left my profile up.  \n\nI thought she made a good point, so I decided to rewrite my profile one last time and put it out there.  When I rewrote it this time, I stopped caring about what other people would think about what I wrote or how they might judge me.  Instead, I wrote a profile that reflected exactly how I felt and who I was at that moment.\n\nAnd then, I started to meet interesting people.  Shortly thereafter, I met my bf and things have been going well since."

Should I fly back to Sunnyvale (from WI) for the Year end party? Is it worth it?I'?,"Whether any party would be worthy flying cross-country for is definitely up to you, but as far as company parties go, I think Yahoo's are tops.\n\nThey go all out in so many ways.  The bands are impressively big (for a party) like this year's Earth, Wind, and Fire (http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=11:aq6jtr59klox), there is a huge variety of food and alcohol (including ice sculpture martini luges), and lots of other activities (gambling, full-body video games).  \n\nBut despite all that, your enjoyment will probably be determined more by how much you enjoy being around your co-workers (if they're going), your date, and/or how long you can enjoy gambling/dancing.\n\nThe last two parties really really impressed me, but I enjoyed the second one much more because my date and I shared a great enthusiasm for the party and dancing.\n\nIt doesn't look like last year's photos links work anymore :("

why does the bird flu considered to be such a frightening disease?,"The 1918, 1957 and and 1968 flu pandemics can be traced back to bird flu mutating with human virus. These pandemics killed scores of people. The panic also stems from the fact that there is no vaccine for H5N1 virus, the bird flu that is currently affecting Asia. Like last year, vaccines for ""regular"" human flu are in short supply as well.\nUnder normal circumstances, when the flu hits you're just feverish, achey and fatigued for a few days. When the flu strikes more vulnerable people, like the elderly and very young babies, it can cause respiratory problems and even kill them."
What can be done to lower the dropout rate in High Schools?,"To curb the dropout rate, the National Dropout Prevention Center advocates the ""implementation of alternative strategies based on the principle of continuous improvement, in place of policies supporting student grade retention"".\n\nIn other words, the organization believes that the qualifier of a meaningful education shouldn't solely be based on grades, but on individual performance. \n\nEach learner begins at a different level emotionally, socially, and cognitively, and behaviorally. And because all of these factors play a role in learning, the same standard shouldn't apply to every student. \n\nThe NDPC thinks that more dropouts could be prevented if each child was assessed as an invidividual and their progress was weighed on their individual needs, not based against every other student.\n\nOne of the best educational strategies they recommend is service-learning. This is a theory based on the connection of hands-on experience and academic learning that also incorporates service to the community. Many learners have shown they can grasp concepts better and have greater success through experiential learning instead of the traditional textbook/lecture/text based learning.\n\nhope this helps!"
What is paraphrasing?,"Paraphrasing is when you put someone else's ideas in your own words. It's not just rewriting a paragraph or changing a few words. From the webs ite below:\nParaphrasing is:\n*your own rendition of essential information and ideas expressed by someone else, presented in a new form. \n*one legitimate way (when accompanied by accurate documentation) to borrow from a source. \n*a more detailed restatement than a summary, which focuses concisely on a single main idea. \n\nBe careful about taking a sentence and only changing a few words in it--some plagarism detecting software will catch that and call it plagarism."

How can we improve the quality of the teachers in high schools?,"hi,\n\nThis question is of particular interest to me because I have been interested in education reform for some time. I'm a believer that the quality of education has a lot to do with the quality of the teachers. To have quality teachers, many different initiatives should be put into place. \n\nThere are several areas to focus on improving teachers:\n\n1) preparation and credentialing- some states have focused on improving teacher education programs and raising the passing score on qualifying exams like the PRAXIS.\n\n2) induction and retention- it's well known that the teaching profession has a high burnout rate. it's not suprising. they're essentially expected to raise our society's children and many times spend more time when them than the parents do. that's why some states have instituted better support programs for new teachers. assigning each new teacher a teacher-mentor and having a supportive adminstration that encourages teacher autonomy and professional development are a few ways to help retain new teachers.\n\n3) professional development- states should encourage the professional development of their teachers. this doesn't just mean that they raise the expectations for the classes they take, it means that they tie these developments to compensation as well. one way in which states have given teachers incentives to grow professionally is by instituting national board certification programs. a teacher who passes this test gets a raise as well as the privelege of teaching in any other state w/o additional requirements.\n\n4) accountability- it's a problem when non-performing teachers are allowed to stay because of tenure. while it's important to ensure teacher accountability, it seems that some states see this area as a panacea for generating good teachers. it's not. the other factors are equally important, if not more so. to weed out deadbeats, you just have to nurture a better teaching staff.\n\n5) fair compensation- obviously, this is very important.\n\nhope this helps?"
what was Hitchcock best movie?,"Generally, film geeks tend to come down in favor of Vertigo or Notorious, but the previously mentioned North By Northwest gets a lot of votes, too.\n\nNotorious is usually cited by European critics because of the amazing work by both Cary Grant and Ingrid Bergman, plus it is the film that introduced the concept of the McGuffin. Essentially, this is the plot device that everything seems to be hinging upon while the story is doing something else (much sneakier) in the background. In Notorious, the McGuffin is (are) the wine bottles full of uranium.\n\nI tend to think that Vertigo is his best because it's just so damn unbelievable and over-the-top but he still pulls it off. Jimmy Stewart was never better in his whole career and the cinematography, music and mood is just amazing.\n\nOther (not yet mentioned) great Hitchcock films that you must see would be:\n\n1. Early Period: The Thirty-Nine Steps (1939), The Lady Vanishes, Strangers on a Train\n2. Middle-Period: The Trouble with Harry (very funny), Suspicion, Rebecca\n3. Later: Rear Window, and Psycho (of course)"

How is it that different countries have come up with different styles of electrical socket pins?,"Practical: As there are multiple very-incompatible voltages in use (110v, 220v), it's a good idea to not have the same plugs. Somebody will inevitably plug in the wrong device, and putting a 110v device on 220v can be pretty nasty. Dual voltage devices which are popular today (largely due to power semiconductors which make them inexpensive), didn't exist when plugs were designed!\n\nPolitical: Many ex-colonies of Britain were trying to shake off British influence as far as possible, which probably was a factor in picking different system for power device standards, among others."
Should I rent or buy?,"It depends on what you mean by ""save a lot of money"".  If you are trying to save money over a period of time, it depends.  Over the long haul you might save money by buying, since you'll end up owning the property and could sell it and recover your investment.  You might even make money by buying if you live in an area where the property value is likely to go up over the period of time you might live there.\n\nIf you're trying to save money on a monthly basis, renting is usually cheaper, unless a) you might rent out one or more rooms, thus off-setting your out-of-pocket monthly expenses, or b) you can afford to put down a large down-payment.\n\nLiving in a high-cost area myself, I say ""buy"" if you can afford it.  If nothing else you can go to town on decorating or remodeling, something you can't usually do when you rent."

What can you say to someone on their deathbed to help put their mind at ease?,"It really depends on the beliefs of the individual. If they are religious, talk to them about their beliefs about the afterlife. If they are worried about how their actions in life may affect their disposition after death, recall for them (if possible) their good works and deeds. If they believe in God, remind them of the principles of divine forgiveness. If they're not religious, ask them about their beliefs. Reassure them of their impact on your life. If you're there at their bedside, I assume they've touched you somewhat, somehow.\n\nThis is not a time to hold a grudge. If you have a disagreement with them, try to forgive. Remember you will have to live with yourself after the other person is gone. Let them know you will remember them fondly. Recall good times with them to help ease their pain."
Why is the sky blue?,"The sky is blue due to atmospheric scattering of blue light. Blue photons are the most energetic of the visible light photos, and interact more with the atmosphere as a result. To be clear, all colors get scattered, it s just that blue is affected the most because of it is more energetic.   A related effect happens around sunset. At this time of day, sunlight needs to travel through significantly more air to reach your eyes. The length of air is so long that nearly all the blue and green is scattered away before it reaches you. All that is left is yellows, oranges and reds, some of which reaches your eyes, and the rest scattered in the sky within your view."

How to fight graft and corruption?,"If it is in a corporation, there are special laws to grant you whistleblower status, and you can move into this role under a degree of legal protection from retribution.\n\nIf it is in a government, then it can be very difficult depending on the nature of the government.  Dictatorships are notorious for systemic corruption, and there is little that can be done without coup or significant intervention (or perhaps populist uprising, although you'd be risking your life).  In a democracy, the corruption is of a softer sort, and you may be able to counter-act it via a public interest campaign, or story presented to the news media.\n\nNow if the graft and corruption is within your own heart... that's a real toughie.  It requires a degree of personal strength and conviction to ideals which extend beyond your person.  I think all human beings have the capacity for such strength and compassion, but it requires a willingness to make the hard choices both for yourself and your community."

On the other hand, Citi bank has many local branches but low or no interet in checking.\n\nThe best site that helps you to compare interest offers is www.bankrate.com. It also rates the reputation of the bank. Once you select the interest level and reputation level that you like, come back here and ask if people have good/bad experiences with that bank. Hope this helps."

Explanation for correlated wave function collapse at a distance (Quantum Mechanics)?,"An equally valid question would be ""what is the mechanism that causes WF_A to collapse when it is measured?""  The schroedinger equation does not predict collapse as a result of any interaction, so it is outside the theory taught in undergraduate classes.  There is no accepted theory (or in my opinion, any reasonable theory at all) as to why measurement causes a selection of a single eigenvalue out some non-eigenstate.  The idea that measurement on one object has ramifications on another object seems more mysterious, but it's not fundamentally different than the idea that measurement causes collapse in the first place.  You won't find a satisfying answer."

"In the six nations, why is 'prize' for the team that does not win a single game called ""wooden spoon""?","It possibly came from the Cambridge University tradition of giving a large wooden spoon to the student who scored lowest on final exams.   No wooden spoons were given after 1909 at Cambridge, when the scores for exams started being read in alphabetical rather than score order.  One theory is that early on in the Six Nations, many of the players were from Cambridge and carried on the wooden spoon tradition after it no longer was a part of university life."

Why is the voltage ratinging always a multiple of 11 ?,"110 Volts is nominal and may vary when measured by a voltmeter.  That said, power is supplied using sets of three separate parallel wires that you can see up on most power poles.  The very high voltage there is stepped down using a transformer to supply most houses and businesses with a usable lower voltage.  The voltage between any one of the three wires to ground in a house is 110 Volts for example to light a light bulb.  The voltage between any two wires is 220 Volts and is used for example to power a clothes dryer or kitchen range.  Houses do not use all three wires.  A machine shop may power a large motor by connecting all three wires (in a delta or Y configuration) to obtain 440 Volts.  Therefore the progression of 110, 220, and 440 Volts stems from the use of single, two and three-phase wiring circuits.  Electrical power is conducted cross-country at very high voltages using high tension lines strung in sets of three wires or phases which produces the multiple of 11 you mention.  Incidentally there may be an additional single wire above all the rest to arrest lightning strikes."
What's the best prog. language to learn? What's the easiest to get into?,"If you want to make a career on computer science or engineering, take C++/C and nothing else at first.

Later you should also learn at least half a dozen other languages, including some assembly , lisp (or other functional language, like haske?), prolog and a scripting language.\n\nIf you are just casually learning a programming language, the best will depend on what you want to do: \n\nFor web pages, you should learn a little bit of HTML, javascript and then PHP. Don't try to learn all of them at first, just enough to get you first pages going, and then learn as you need.\n\nIf you want to do some data manipulation, or simple calculations, or windows in the unix (linux) world, learn python.\n\nFinally, if you want to play with windows in MS Windows, learn VisualBasic.\n\nMost important: after you choose a language to learn, be curious, try out stuff, and you'll learn in no time at all ;)"
How do bowlers get reverse swing in cricket?,"Reverse swing is an art invented by former Pakistani fast bowler Sarfaraz Nawaz, followed by Imran Khan, Waseem Akram and Waqar Younis.\n\nA new cricket ball has shine on both sides. When the ball gets older the shine disappears and the amount of swing is decreased. In reverse swing the bowler keeps one side of the ball shining and one rough.\nDue to air friction the rough side resists the air and the ball moves towards the shining side having less friction on that side.\nSo it will allways move towards the direction of the shine.\nWaqar younis had the habbit of hiding the ball from batsman before its delivery. So that the batsman keeps guessing the direction of the swing."

Where is the gum?,"The 4 mm probably refers to the depth of your gum pockets (the space betwen the top of your gums to the alveolar bone that holds your teeth. Your dentist would measure this with a probe.\n\nIf your pockets are deeper than 4 mm then it means that you have had bone loss  which is usually caused by periodontal disease (an infection in the gums). The best way to prevent periodontal problems is to brush and FLOSS your teeth regularly (brush at least twice a day for two minutes). \n\nI emphasize flossing, because often people don't realize just how important it is. The contact between the two teeth are where food are most likely to get stuck, and therefore where bacteria sticks most often, too. The purpose of flossing is to really clean that surface where two teeth touch.

Why are the colors of Christmas red and green?  What do these colors symbolize?,"The origin of the popular Christmas colors red and green is speculated to be Italy, since the Italian flag's colors are red, green, and white and most of the Christmas traditions we have were usurped from early Pagan people of the 3rd Century.\n\nIn AD 274, Emperor Aurelian decreed December 25 as natalis solis invicti (""birth of the invincible sun""), a festival honoring the sun god Mithras known as Saturnalia. It had been celebrated by Pagans for centuries, but the emperor moved it to this later date.\n\nShortly thereafter, the Church Fathers likewise set the official date for celebrating the birth of Jesus as being December the 25th.\n\nThe Italians today commemorate Christmas for an entire month. Just as in the days of Pagan Rome with Saturnalia, the period between mid-December and early January is one constant celebration.\n\nRich Nativity scenes and the playing of bagpipes by the zampognari (shepards) are very important to the look and feel of Christmas in Italy."
What is a good platform for writing complex web apps in php?,"You can use of of the many php MVC Framework. One of the most used one is phpMVC. \n\nQuoted from their website ""php.MVC implements the Model-View-Controller (MVC) design pattern, and encourages application design based on the Model 2 paradigm. This design model allows the Web page or other contents (View) to be mostly separated from the internal application code (Controller/Model), making it easier for designers and programmers to focus on their respective areas of expertise.\n\nThe framework provides a single entry point Controller. The Controller is responsible for allocating HTTP requests to the appropriate Action handler (Model) based on configuration mappings.\n\nThe Model contains the business logic for the application. The Controller then forwards the request to the appropriate View component, which is usually implemented using a combination of HTML with PHP tags in the form of templates. The resulting contents are returned to the client browser, or via another protocol such as SMTP.\n\nphp.MVC is a PHP port of Jakarta Struts. It currently supports many features of Struts, including declarative application configuration via the XML digester. For example, mappings from the various Action business logic components to appropriate results pages can be specified declaratively in the XML configuration file. """
Should teachers be required to renew their credentials every 5 years?,"On one side I say yes and on the other I say no. It depends really. Some teachers I do not think should be teachers, and I think this will help remove them, yet the good teachers also may be removed because of that too."
How should I encrypt/pw protect my backup files on an external harddrive for easy recovery on any machine?,"I recently backed up and restored a bunch of files using Roxio's Backup MyPC Deluxe, which was bundled with my copy of Easy Media Creator 7.5.  I don't know how secure the encryption is, but it definitely lets you recover files to any computer.  I would assume that any of the more recognized packages (i.e. Norton/Dantz Retrospect/Ghost) would let you restore files to a different machine as this seems to be a core feature of a backup program."
What is the difference between a state and a nation?,"In political science, a ""nation"" refers to a group of people who feel bound into a single body by shared culture, values, folkways, religion and/or language.  A ""state"" just refers to a patch of land with a sovereign government.  States often coincide with nations (and are called ""nation-states,"" but not always.  States that overlap multiple nations tend to have civil wars; states that exclude parts of a nation tend to have wars with the neighboring state(s) that contain the rest of the nation."

What is the best microphone or headset for recording a podcast?,"OK - I podcast, just wrapped my 160th show. I use a Plantronics Computer headset. Key is to position microphone 3 fingers away from your mouth, not under your nose. I think it was $14 from Fry's\n\nFor calls, I use a Radio Shack call recorder, plugs in between your phone and headset (phone must have headset jack). Was $24.\n\nProcessing your voice afterwards helps: normalize, use a little reverb, and compress. It makes a big difference, and you dont really need to use hardware to do it. \n\nThats the cheap method. You can spend a lot more and there are huge differences and situations. It depends on where you will be using it, who you will be talking to. Big difference between say a portable , interview show, and/or studio."

Do best friends always have to do and share everything together?,"I don't think best friends always have to do and share everything together. This is a tall order that even couples don't always fulfill.\n\nBest friends should appreciate each other's presence, but sometimes people just have different plans/tastes/preferences so that they can't or don't always want to do things together. Best friends should be able to care for each other even though they don't do everything together. The same goes for sharing things."

What is a legal separation?,"Legal separation means that the husband and wife live apart and both are not free to marry since their status has not been changed to unmarried or single person.    From Wikipedia:    ""Legal separation is a possible step towards divorce under United States law. A couple are legally separated if they have successfully petitioned a court to recognize their separation; simply living apart does not constitute separation for these purposes. A period of legal separation constitutes grounds for divorce; the length of that period varies from state to state.    Legal separation does not automatically lead to divorce. The couple may reconcile, in which case they need do nothing in order to remain married. If they do not reconcile, and wish to divorce after the statutory time period, they must file for divorce explicitly."""

What is the difference between phishing and pharming?,"Both are entirely made-up terms, of course.  ""Phishing"" generally refers to those e-mail messages that say they're from a bank (or eBay or PayPal or your ISP), but the links actually go to some other web site where the phisher (still pretending to be a bank) asks for your information, and will use it to steal your identity, money, etcetera.\n\n""Pharming"" is another twist on the same thing, using more devious tricks.  In phishing mail you can usually figure out that the site you're about to visit isn't really your bank.  So for ""pharming,"" they'll first trick you into running a program (see ""trojans,"" ""malware,"" ""spyware,"" etcetera) that changes the way your computer looks up domain names.  Then, the pharmer can tell your computer that bank.com is some web server in Russia, and it's much harder to figure out that something's wrong.\n\nThere's some good info about these kinds of scams at http://antispam.yahoo.com/faqs#a13 ."

do i need to pay tax before filing tax return if i sell my ISO stock options this year?,"As you may know, NQSO (non qualifying stock options) have tax withheld at source as soon as you exercise, so theoretically you don't have to pay any estimated tax on NQSO exercises/sales (although see * below).\n\nWith Incentive Stock Options (ISO) though, the situation is quite different.\n\nIt sounds like you plan to exercise and sell your ISOs on the same day.  If so, then this is what's called a ""disqualifying disposition"".  In other words, you will be liable for ordinary income tax on the spread (sale price - exercise price).  \n\nIn general, the IRS wants you to pay tax in the quarter in which the related income is earned.  So you theoretically should pay the estimated tax at your standard income tax rate in the same quarter you exercise and sell ISOs.  You do this by filing an Estimated Tax payment.\n\n\nHowever, there is a way to postpone filing these taxes until your normal April next year tax return.     The following information is sourced from See http://www.fool.com/school/taxes/taxes35.htm. \n\n1.  The simplest way is just to suck it up and not worry about paying a penalty for underpayment of taxes.  Depending on how much you think you can earn on your money, and when you were supposed to pay the tax, this may be a win for you (this used to happen a lot during the dotcom/IPO days of 1999-2000).  Be wary though that you probably can't keep doing this year after year without the IRS getting on your case. \n\n2.  Alternatively, you can avoid the underpayment penalty *if* any of the following are true\n\na) you owed no tax at all in the prior tax year (and were a US citizen/resident for all of that year)\n\nb) you expect to owe less than $1000 in tax this year (unlikely, since you're exercising ISOs)\n\nc) your ordinary income tax withholding (e.g. from your wages and/or NQSO exercise) will exceed 90% of this year's tax bill.  This may happen if your ISO exercise/sale is less than around 10% of your total income for the year.\n\nd) your ordinary income tax withholding (from wages and/or NQSO) is greater than 100% of your last year's tax liability and your previous year's Adjusted Gross Income was < $150,000.   If your previous year's AGI was >= $150,000 (lucky you), then you need to pay at least 110% of last year's tax liability in order to avoid a tax underpayment penalty.\n\n\n\nClear?  As mud?\nOption d) is usually the easiest one to satisfy if you're making a large ISO exercise in this year only, particularly if you got a raise this year and are hence paying more taxes than last year anyway.\n\nHowever, you may also want to consider whether you should do an exercise and hold (for 1 year) to pay long term capital gains tax (15%) instead of your ordinary W2 income tax rate (probably 25-35%).  \n\nIf you do, you will *still* be subject to tax this year, due to the dreaded AMT (Alternative Minimum Tax), but you can use that AMT tax liability as a credit for future years when your AMT is less than your ordinary income tax.  However, that's a topic for a whole 'nother question/answer.   \n\n\n* Even with NQSOs, if the amount held at source is less than your eventual tax rate for the year,  you may be subject to tax penalties unless you meet one of the exceptions listed in a) through d) above."
How do I roll my 401(k) over to a traditional IRA?,"Just go to vanguard.com or any of the brokerage firms (Vanguard usually has the lowest fees), sign up for a rollover IRA account, and follow the directions they give you.

"Is this the end of the housing boom? For October, existing home sales was down while new home sales surged.?","I think there is a lag in new home sales and the closings in October really were under contract in Aug and September, thus November numbers should be down dramatically even after seasonal adjustment. Rates will undoubtedly go up again at the next meeting, but with the advent of so many new mortgage products (interest only, reverse mortgage, etc.) money is still relatively easy but definitly more risky. I expect volume levels to slow, prices to flatten across most of the US but do not see a big drop in prices unless rates get above 8%."

"Parttime MBA or Certification in Management, which one is better. Where can I do the Mgmt. certification from.","You see, one of the biggest value an MBA will bring is the ""networking"" opportunity. Hence, a part-time MBA with no classroom-based activities will miss this important piece.\n\nIf you want to go for a fully remote-based degree, the Open university is a good option.\n\nColumbia also has a good option for a certificate: you keep taking several courses and after some time you can apply for a certificate in business excellence.\n\nI think both the part-time mba or the certificate are good options if you pick a good school.\n\nIf you can afford going to the campus about twice a month, an executive mba is the best option in my opinion. Chech NYU, Kellog or Columbia."
Would Amazon sell as much stuff if they required California residents to pay tax?,"Their lower sales rate in Washington state would suggest that no, they wouldn't.  I knew quite a few people (even Amazonians) who didn't buy from Amazon due to that factor.  Given a high state sales tax (>8% in both WA and CA), it's the simple economics of a higher price.  Also, WA no longer has a shipping facility, so the convenience of buying online is occasionally outweighed by the delay of obtaining the goods."
I am being harassed by a telemarketing company even though i requested to be not called. Help?,"The federal DNC is your best bet but there will still be a lag between when you register and the telemarketers check the list (4 to 8 weeks at least) \n\nIn the meantime, you're doing the right thing by telling them to put you on their list.  If they call again use your caller ID and pass that info on to the site below.\n\nIt only works if you haven't done any biz with them though.

What is the difference between AGP and PCI graphics cards?,AGP or Accelerated Graphics Port succeeded PCI or Peripheral Component Interconnect as a technology to connect graphics cards to a computer's motherboard. PCI is still used to connect other devices like ethernet and sound cards.\n\nAGP slots provide a dedicated link between the card and the CPU and thus providing faster communication between them.  There are other enhancements as well.  See the source for more.  But the bottom line is that AGP cards perform much better.\n\nBut now AGP is getting phased in favor of PCIe or PCI Express which is even faster and can be used as the bus for all the devices in a machine.

He also hosted two groundbreaking suspense anthology series on television. \n\nIt would be difficult to overstate the influence Hitchcock had on the industry. His showmanship, his cinematography and his approach to suspense are felt to this day, recently in Gus Van Sant's shot-by-shot recreation of ""Psycho""."
"Where did the term ""I'll be there with bells on"" originate?","Direct quote from http://www.rootsweb.com/~genepool/meanings.htm: ""To be somewhere with ""bells on"" refers to a practice peddlers had when they roamed the area west of the Appalachians selling wares. To avoid Indians, they traveled as silently as possible until they reached a settled area. Then they unmuffled bells hung around their horses necks to announce their arrival to outlying cabins. Hence, ""I'll be there with bells on."" The peddlers' arrival was a much anticipated major event in the mostly tedious and hard lives of settlers, not only for the goods they sold, but also for the news, letters, and messages they carried from the outside world."""

On the other hand, you have to be a bit of a wizard to manage a Windows machine...\n\nThe Macintosh runs an OS similar to Linux, but has a nicer frontend on top of it, so I think the Macintosh is a better choice.\n\nBest thing to do is try them out if you can."

how can you cause a toddler to do something that they don't want to do?,"It typically works really well to give them a choice about part of the afair. For example, if they need to take a gross medicine, that's not an option. But it will go down a lot better if they can choose to take it with the blue or the red spoon, or to get a kiss or a hug afterwards. I also try to leave room for ""rewards"". For example, at dinner, the kids can take seconds of whatever they like best after they finish eating. However, I make sure to serve them at least a little bit of everything and make them eat that first, and save some of the stuff they really like for seconds."

What is a router?,"A router is a network device which is connected between network subnets and knows where to send a packet it received.\nWhen you use your browser to look at Yahoo!, for example, HTTP data packets from your PC travels to Yahoo  by going from router to router until they reach Yahoo! server. Each router is a ""hop"" on the way and each knows where to send your packet next.\nA response from Yahoo goes back through the network in similar way (not necessarily through same networks).\n\nYou may have a router box at home, which usually knows about your home subnet and your ISP subnet.\nCisco builds ""big iron"" routers which are the backbone of the internet."

What's the best age gap between siblings?,"The New England Journal of Medicine recently published a study suggesting that parents should wait 18 to 23 months after a full-term birth before conceiving again.  Interestingly enough, the average age gap between siblings in America is about two and a half years -- which means we must be following this advice!  I personally have two sisters, one 6 years older and the other 11 years older, and we get along famously.  You have to worry about competition between siblings when the age gap is too small; but with families with wide gaps in age between the siblings, you have to worry that they'll be raised almost like one ""only child"" after another.  Best,\n`k."

What are the advantages of a compact crankset over a triple on a bicycle?,"The main advantage is that the compact crankset gearing is much closer to the high cadence riding that is the current trend in modern cycling.  With a standard triple crank you have 30/42/52 chainrings, from which most people use the 42 and 30 rings.  The 30 is a little too short for most hilly rides, and basically you're spinning super fast to get up a hill.  The 42 is   a bit too small for barrelling down a hill, and the 52 is so steep that it's rarely being used.\n\nThe compact crankset has 50 and 34 tooth gears which are theoretically better for the way most cyclists ride today.  The 34 gives you short enough gearing to get up big hills but is not quite as short as the granny gear on the triple, and the 50 gives you the speed in a manageable dose.\n\nA couple things to consider, though.  In order to switch to a double compact, you need to replace a fair number of components, including the bottom bracket, cranks, rear derailleur (optional but highly recommended), front derailleur and possibly your left shifter.

Who is the best formula 1 driver to ever live?,"Statistically Michael Schumacher is the best, though it's not an apples to apples comparison as the car is a much larger factor in driver success than it has been in the past.

What exactly is the difference between stock options and stock grants?,"Stock option grants and stock grants are two forms of compensation often offered as incentives in addition to base salary offered to a newly hired employee. This practice is especially common in the high tech industry. \n\nStock options are contracts that allow you to buy or sell specific amount of a particular stock at a certain price within a set period of time. The set price is called the strike price. When you (the stock option holder) make use of your right to buy/sell stock according to the terms of the option, you are exercising the option. Call options are options giving you the right to buy stock. Put options are options giving you the right to sell stock. Employers grant call options to employees. Let's take an example: Let's say you are hired by Google and they offer you options to buy 100 shares of Google stock at $400 within the next 5 years. This stock option gives you the right to buy 100 shares of Google stock at exactly $400 any time within the next 5 years. Let's say it's after four years now. Suppose Google stock is at $300 now, now your options are worthless, because you could buy Google stock in the market for $300, much less than the $400 price offered by your stock option. Now suppose Google stock is at $500 now, then if you exercise your option, you could buy 100 shares at $400. Then you can turn around and sell it on the stock market for the current price of $500, making a $100*100=$10000 profit. So the stock option is basically not worth anything if currently the stock price is lower than your option strike price. But as long as your option has not expired, it's possible that the stock price could go above your strike price and make your stock options worth something.\n\nStock grants are simpler to understand. The employer gives you some shares of stock for free. So let's use the Google example again. Suppose Google hired you and gave you 100 shares in a stock grant. Now you own 100 shares of Google stock. At anytime, you could sell that stock for whatever price it is trading at on the stock market.\n\nStock option and stock grants are usually offered on terms called vesting. That means that you are not given the full amount of options or stock right away, but rather the employer gives it to you over time. A common vesting schedule is vesting over four years, so that you get 1/4 of the stock or options offered after the first, second, third, and fourth year you have been at the company. This is done to give employees an incentive to stay at the company."

"For $1000 or less, what's the best 1600x1200 LCD monitor for digital photography? I.e., most accurate color?","The problem with most current LCD technology is that the chrominance isn't as good as with traditional CRT-based monitors. There are some LCD ones just coming out that have full-color backlight which should make them actually _better_ than CRTs (according to some Wired article I read, anyhow.)\n\nPersonally, I've been pretty happy with the Dell 24xx monitors - they're under $1k, they have a multitude of inputs, and I think I've only got one stuck pixel (and no dead ones.) You're still going to have to color-correct anyway, but you'd have to do that on _any_ monitor you get. (A good gamma correction curve will solve a multitude of ills.)"
In what year did Billie Joe Armstrong of Green Day get married?,"he got married on July 2, 1994."
how come our eyes are located in the front and not on the side of the head?,"The predatory mammals (which includes us humans) -- flesh-eating hunters such as the cats the dogs, wolves and foxes; the bears; and the weasel family -- have binocular vision: eyes in the front of their heads, with powerful eye muscles that enable them to focus very rapidly and to contract or dilate the pupils according to whether the light is bright or dim. An animal that is preyed upon by many enemies has its eyes out on the sides of its head: each eye with its own field of vision. For example, a cottontail rabbit can see what is above, behind, on either side, and in front of it except what is right before its nose. He probably does not see the clover leaf he eats. Species which are hunted by other animals but which are predators themselves at times, commonly have eyes that are a compromise. A possum's eyes are located at an angle of about 30 degrees with the axis of the body."
What is SAP?,"SAP is the biggest European software company headquartered in Walldorf, Germany. SAP was founded in 1972 as Systemanalyse und Programmentwicklung by five former IBM employees in Mannheim, Germany. The acronym was later changed to mean Systeme, Anwendungen und Produkte in der Datenverarbeitung (""Systems, Applications And Products in Data Processing"") but since the Annual General Meeting of 2005, the company's official name is just SAP AG.\n\nAlthough not exactly a household name, SAP is the fourth-largest software company in the world. It ranks after Microsoft, IBM and Oracle in terms of market capitalization. SAP is the largest company in terms of revenue as per latest data, and the largest ERP solution software provider (also in terms of revenue).\n\nSAP's products are in the Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) business sector. The company's main product is SAP R/3, where the ""R"" stands for real-time data processing, the number 3 relates to the three tier application architecture: database, application server and client - SAPgui is the desktop software for using SAP R/3. The predecessor to R/3 was R/2. Other major offerings include Advanced Planner and Optimizer (APO), Business Information Warehouse (BW), Customer Relationship Management (CRM), Supplier Relationship Management (SRM), Human Resource Management Systems (HRMS), Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) and Knowledge Warehouse (KW). The company also offers a new technology platform, named SAP NetWeaver. While its original products are mostly used by larger companies, SAP is now also offering products for small and medium sized enterprises (SME) with SAP Business One and mySAP All-in-One.\n\nMore than 28,000 companies run SAP, at over 91,500 locations. SAP users number over 12 million people in more than 120 countries."
How do you clean a computer monitor's screen?,"I suggest using cleaning wipes made for monitors such as Fellowes Screen Cleaning Wipes. It's made specifically for CRT & LCD monitors. It's alcohol and streak free and has anti-static properties. Just make sure never to push down on the LCD when you're cleaning/wiping or you could give your monitor a dead pixel or two.\n\nHere's more info on the product: http://www.officeworks.com.au/shop/catalog/sku.asp?ID=FE99702&LEVEL=SK&PR=Q71&SID=68EACB0PKQDR9HPDWW5MU2WPRDJ1BK58\n\nIt's for a local stationery supply place in Sydney, but I'm sure you can find the equivalent where ever you are."

"Why do we call the initial test ""alpha test"" and the next test ""beta test""?","""Historical note: More formally, to beta-test is to test a pre-release (potentially unreliable) version of a piece of software by making it available to selected (or self-selected) customers and users. This term derives from early 1960s terminology for product cycle checkpoints, first used at IBM but later standard throughout the industry. Alpha Test was the unit, module, or component test phase; Beta Test was initial system test. These themselves came from earlier A- and B-tests for hardware. The A-test was a feasibility and manufacturability evaluation done before any commitment to design and development. The B-test was a demonstration that the engineering model functioned as specified. The C-test (corresponding to today's beta) was the B-test performed on early samples of the production design, and the D test was the C test repeated after the model had been in production a while."""
Why did the Replacements break up?,"Defeated from the lackluster performance of Don't Tell a Soul, Paul Westerberg planned on recording a solo album, but Sire rejected the idea. Consequently, the next Replacements album, All Shook Down, was a solo Westerberg record in all but name. Recorded with a cast of session musicians as well as the band, All Shook Down was a stripped-down, largely acoustic affair that hinted at the turmoil within the band. Chris Mars left shortly after its fall 1990 release, claiming that Westerberg had assumed control of the band; he would launch a solo career two years later. The Replacements toured in support of All Shook Down, with Steve Foley, formerly of the Minneapolis-based Things Fall Down, as their new drummer. Neither the tour nor the album were successful, and the Replacements quietly disbanded in the summer of 1991."

How do you feel about sex education for 4th and 5th graders? Is it too soon?,"I have mixed feelings about this. My son is in the 5th grade, and he's quite innocent, so it seems a little early to expose him to the topic (this year). On the other hand, he makes some random comments that he has heard from other classmates, who probably have older siblings, and seems to be at the threshold of being exposed to facts and half-truths. So doing it in a formal fashion is probably better. \n\n4th grade is too early, in my opinion."

what is the fibbonacci sequence?,"Well, many people answered the question. Fibonacci sequence starts from 0 and Nth Fibonacci Number is sum of (N-1) th and (N-2) th Fibonacci Number.\nSequence goes like 0,1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,34…....\n\nIt is an empirical fact that the ratio of consecutive Fibonacci Numbers converges to an interesting value near to 1.6 called (to be accurate it is (1+SQRT (5))/2) golden ratio or golden mean.\nThere ere are some interesting facts about golden ratio:\n1.\nThe growth of nautilus shell, growth of populations and many other kinds of natural “growing,” are somehow governed by mathematical properties exhibited in the Fibonacci sequence. Not just the rate of growth, but the pattern of growth. Examine the crisscrossing spiral seed pattern in the head of a sunflower, for instance, and you will discover that the number of spirals in each direction is invariably two consecutive Fibonacci numbers.\n2. \nGolden ratio is related to construction of great ancient architectures like Great pyramids in Egypt. \nLink: http://www.dartmouth.edu/~matc/math5.geometry/unit2/unit2.html\n3.\nYou can follow this link for exploring its use in poetry, music, art and now a days it is used for stock market predictions as well. This link will tell you the origin of the word Fibonacci as well.\nLink: http://www2.evansville.edu/studiochalkboard/cm-fibonacci.html"
How did language start?,"Language predates the alphabet. The origins of Language are lost to the mists of time. The alphabet as we know it was developed by the Phonecians about 3000 years ago, and modified first by the Greeks, and then the Romans for their own languages before we adopted it from the Romans.\n\nThe origins of the English language specifically date to sometime after 1066 when Willam the Conqueror became King of England. The commoners spoke something related to the ancestor language of Dutch while the nobility spoke French. We kept the grammar of the native Anglo-Saxon tongue while adding huge amounts of French vocabulary.\nThe result is recognizably English, while still sounding very different from what we speak today. It's not until Shakespear's time that Modern English emerged."

6th Wedding Anniversary - Any Ideas?,"My favorite times with my loved one is when we actually have time to sit and reflect about what the other one means to us. Going out to eat is traditionally what is done on an anniversary, but I prefer one on one time where there is nobody else around. No strangers talking loudly, no waiters to interrupt, no time wasted in line or in the car.  \n\nIn my opinion, Anniversaries are about each other, and to do that, you've gotta block out the rest of the world.  Here's my recipe for a fabulous anniversary. FIRST, AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, GET SOME PAPER, PENS, AND AN ENVELOPE. I'll tell you why in a little bit.\n\nNext, plan the environment - Stay home (or rent a hotel if you want to get away from the day-to-day). Turn off the lights, turn on the music, light the candles.  Put your favorite (but easy to prepare) foods around you - cheeses, pizza, strawberries, chocolate, wine, etc.\n\nNow here comes the important part - sit directly in front of each other on the floor. Knee to knee, and eye to eye. Be sure to hold hands and feed each other. Talk about 'the time when we...' or 'that one time when we...'. Before you know it, hours will have passed. Don't be afraid to sip a little more wine than what you normally do. You'll soon find yourself maybe getting a little frisky. \n\nBut before you go any further, grab that piece of paper and pen, and write down a few lines about what that other person means to you. How they make you feel, and why you love them. Why you appreciate them. The more specific you get the better. For example, I love my man more everytime I catch him acting like a little kid when he thinks no one is around. Now don't let the other person read it. Seal it in the envelope, and save it for your next anniversary. It's so fun, and gives you something really fantastic to look forward to. \n\nNow would be a good time to finish off the night with a long kiss...and maybe more.\n\nYou've just created a wonderful memory of the two of you together, sincerely enjoying each other.\n\nMuch better than some boring evening at an overpriced restaurant where nobody talked to each other, don't you think?"

how about a index or table of contants of all on the web? too convienent??,"Well, search engines like Yahoo! and Google try to be something like that but, of course, they can only be approximate.  There are a number of problems with indexing EVERYTHING on the web:\n\na) It changes every second!  No index or table of contents could keep up.\n\nb) It is de-centralized.  New web pages do not have to pass through any central controlling authority.  How would an indexer/table-of-contents-compiler know what to add?  The best that the search engines can do is something called ""crawling"" the web, looking for new pages.\n\nc) Some people don't WANT the rest of the world to know about their web pages.  They just want a few people -- maybe just friends and family -- to be able to find the pages easily."

The eastern Cherokee still maintain their reservation in western North Carolina. The Northern Cherokee Nation of the Old Louisiana Territory has almost 12,000 members and has been recognized by the State of Missouri. Other groups of Cherokee, like the 2,500 members of the North Alabama Cherokee, are located in Arkansas, Georgia, and Alabama but currently do not have federal recognition.\n\nPopulation\nEuropean epidemics introduced into the southeastern United States in 1540 by the Desoto expedition are estimated to have killed at least 75% of the original native population. How much the Cherokee suffered from this disaster in unknown, but their population in 1674 was about 50,000. A series of smallpox epidemics (1729, 1738, and 1753) cut this in half, and it remained fairly stable at about 25,000 until their removal to Oklahoma during the 1830s. The American Civil War was the next disaster and cost the Cherokee 25% of their population. No other group of Americans, red or white, suffered as severely during this conflict. The 1990 census listed 308,132 persons (15,000 full-blood) who identified themselves as Cherokee. Of these, 95,435 were concentrated in eastern Oklahoma while 10,114 eastern Cherokee lived on or near the North Carolina reservation. Cherokee tribal governments have fairly liberal membership standards, and some estimates exceed 370,000, which would make the Cherokee the largest Native American group in the United States.\n\n\nName\nThe most familiar name, Cherokee, comes from a Creek word ""Chelokee"" meaning ""people of a different speech."" In their own language the Cherokee originally called themselves the Aniyunwiya (or Anniyaya) ""principal people"" or the Keetoowah (or Anikituaghi, Anikituhwagi) ""people of Kituhwa."" Although they usually accept being called Cherokee, many prefer Tsalagi from their own name for the Cherokee Nation (Tsalagihi Ayili). Other names applied to the Cherokee have been: Allegheny (or Allegewi, Talligewi) (Delaware), Baniatho (Arapaho), Caáxi (or Cayaki) (Osage and Kansa), Chalaque (Spanish), Chilukki (dog people) (Choctaw and Chickasaw), Entarironnen (mountain people) (Huron), Gatohuá (Creek), Kittuwa (or Katowá) (Algonquin), Matera (or Manteran) (coming out of the ground) ( Catawba), Nation du Chien (French), Ochietarironnon (Wyandot), Oyatageronon (or Oyaudah, Uwatayoronon) (cave people) (Iroquois), Shanaki (Caddo), Shannakiak (Fox), Tcaike (Tonkawa), and Tcerokieco (Wichita).\n\n\nLanguage\nIroquian, but Cherokee differs significantly from other Iroquian languages.\n\n\nSub-tribes\n\nThe Cherokee have been divided into three divisions depending on location and dialect (east to west): \nLower"

Besides being physically and emotionally relaxing, massage improves blood and lymph circulation, reduces nerve irritation and brings fresh oxygen and other nutrients to the affected tissues. Massage may also cause the body to produce fewer stress hormones like cortisol and norepinephrine (formerly adrenalin), and may also increase the body's production of pain-killing endorphins and the mood-altering hormone serotonin.\n\n  While seeing a professional massage therapist is relatively expensive, a friend or family member may be able to learn enough technique from a book or video to provide some relief for you."

Why did the U.S. stop sending people to the moon?,"Yes. I believe the original idea was to build a rocket base from which to explore the solar system. But somebody realised the same thing could be done from Earth via an orbiting space station for a fraction of the cost.\nThe only other reasons for going to the moon were - \n1. To stop the Russians setting up a military base there.\n2. To collect moon rocks.\nWhen the US realised that a Russian moon base wasn't practical, and they had souvenired as many moon rocks as they were ever likely to need, they never bothered to go back."

how do beta blocking hypertension meds work and explain the meaning of beta in this situation.?,"There are at least 3 types of beta receptors in the body - beta 1, 2, and 3 - and they are sensitive to epinephrine and norepinephrine. beta 1 controls heart rate and force of contraction in the heart (an increase in these will increase blood pressure, thus blocking them will lower blood pressure). beta 2 controls smooth muscle many places in the body. beta 3 receptors have less well defined role in fat metabolism.\n\nThe late American scientist Raymond Ahlqvist suggested already in 1948 that opposite effects of catecholamines were mediated by different receptors in the target organs, which he called alpha- and beta-receptors. http://nobelprize.org/medicine/laureates/1988/press.html"

What do you think of the U.S.'s economy?,"US is recognized for its economic might all over the world. However, after the recent 'Weapons of Mass Destruction' propoganda and invasion on Iraq, it has lost its images in the eyes of the intenational community, making its economy facing serious challenges. This down-trowding started after 911 and seems to have continued after wards. \n\nAnother point is that if US economy gets disturbed, the global economy does recieve the after shocks soon. I hope the situation improves soon."
what does fundamentalism mean?,"Oftentimes, we mean ""An organized, militant Evangelical movement originating in the United States in the late 19th and early 20th century in opposition to Protestant Liberalism and secularism, insisting on the inerrancy of Scripture."" \n\nBut the concept of fundamentalism can be extended to any ideology or theology whose tenents include a strict adherance to a code, especially one which demands the observance by persons who do not subscribe to that code.\n\nNaturally, this makes for a source of conflict. And an understandable one at that. For example, say you believe some act is wrong. Furthermore, you believe you have a duty to prevent wrongdoing altogether. Consequently, you have a moral obligation to prevent any person from doing that act - including people who do not think that act is wrong.\n\nAny critical examination of a dogmatic theology or ideology will reveal how necessary this is, yet any objective look at disparate cultures will reveal how subjective - and frightening - this can be.\n\nThe hope of the future is that fundamentalist evangelism will be enacted by appeal to reason rather than dictates of law. Ideally, people would choose to perform 'right' acts for their own sake, rather than out of fear of punishment."
"Will the Texas Rangers ever entice good pitchers, given that their ballpark is hitter friendly?","Since the move to the Ballpark at Arlington, the Rangers have had pitchers selected to attend the All-Star game, which suggests it's not a question of pitchers' willingness to play there, but greater concerns about contracts or the future of the franchise.  Kenny Rogers, Jeff Zimmerman, Aaron Sele, Roger Pavlik, and John Wetteland were all excellent All-Star selections in spite of the ""hitter friendly"" park.  It's more about the team and management that keeps pitchers away, and less about the stadium."
Whats the difference between gas operated and blowback operated Guns??,"A gas-operated firearm operates on a similar principle of a car engine. When a round is fired, expanding gases propel the bullet out of the barrel, along with most of the gas. But a small portion of the gas is siphoned off into a seperate gas tube either above or below the barrel and forces a piston backwards, which in turn pushes back the bolt carrier, ejects the spent brass, and is pushed forward again by a recoil spring, stripping a fresh round out of the magazine and pushes it into the chamber to be fired. A blowback- operated firearm is comparatively simple. When a round is fired in a blowback-operated firearm, the bolt is forced back by the recoil energy of the spent brass itself, eliminating the need for a piston. The downiside to the simpler design is increased recoil, since not all of the expanding gases in a gas-operated firearm actually exit the barrel, there is less gas pushing the muzzle up and back. the blowback system is often found on smaller weapons, such as pistols and sub-machine guns, because it is simpler and requires fewer parts, which allows a weapon to be small and lightweight."

why do clouds turn dark when its about to rain?,"A cloud compsition is primarlly just billions of drops of water or ice.  When such a cloud formation has an influx of water/ice, ie it's mass increases to include more water/ice, light finds it hard to pass through the mass, thus making it darker for us to see.\n\nIn a normal cloud, light can pass through the water/ice within the cloud and we see it as a distorted white/bluish/greyish/greenish hue.  But when the cloud is too thick with water/ice, the light doesn't pass through so easily and we see a darker spectrum."
Why old people always are complaining ?,"Well, if you think about having illnesses and always being worried about health, older people might always want to pester people to let go of all the emotions bottled up inside of them.

what is inferred reality and class inclusion?,"Inferred reality is defined as the meaning of stimuli in the context of relevant information.\n\n""Inclusion"" is a term used by educators to describe a philosophical approach to the education of children with disabilities. This philosophical paradigm maintains that a child with disabilities -- even severe disabilities such as profound mental retardation -- should be placed in a regular classroom for most or all of the school day (Ayres & Meyer, 1992; Cloud, 1992; Conn, 1992; Shanker, 1993; Wolak, York, & Corbin, 1992). Drawing from the legacy of the Civil Rights movement, advocates of full inclusion for children with disabilities state that ""Inclusion is the ultimate goal for all children with disabilities regardless of their disabilities or current placement"" (New York State Education Department, cited in Shanker, 1993). This is not without controversy. Among the most vocal opponents are those in the deaf community, who feel that their culture and language are at stake (Cohen, 1994) and the Learning Disabilities Association of America, which believes that mandatory full inclusion policies violate federal law (""Full inclusion,"" undated)."

I want to become christian?,"Over the past couple of years, I made many friends from China - most of whom are raised with no religion. And they're all great and wonderful individuals who don't seem to lack anything. I have had at times to explain certain things about the Christian religion to them, which is the dominant religion in the western world, and its practice can raise questions to the uninitiated.\n\nIf you seek spirituality, you should not limit your self to exploring one religion. Why do you dismiss Buddhism, Taoism etc? You should read about everything, speak to ministers and allow your self to form an opinion.\n\nMy advice is, to not let anyone convert you into something by sweet talking you, or promising the kingdom of God. Learn, and let it be your choice. If I were in your shoes, I would try to get all the facts and then decide on my own.\n\nMeet religious people and ask them how they practice religion and what it means to them. Your safest choice not to be tricked into a cult etc would be to go for a well established and long standing dogma or denomination.\n\nIn Christianity, since that is your question, the major two denominations are Catholic and Orthodox, which both came after a separation of the church between west (Catholic) and east (Orthodox). You can learn more on different religions by following the links below.\n\nI know in China most Christians are unitarian, since in 1949 the Government forced denominations to form one single church or leave China.\n\nRemember learn before you act, and don't let anyone influence you. My opinion is that once you decide on something you should stick by it. Should you make the conscious choice to have Faith in a religion. So being absolutely certain is essential. Changing religions in the manner you'd change shirts is not ideal. Because then Faith - which is the most important element in every religion - never gets too strong to mean anything in your life.\n\nWhatever choice you make - good luck to you!"

Is Yahoo or Google a better resource for research? What is another good resource for academic research?,"My answer is google for the following reasons:\n\nPros of Google:\n\nAs a seach engine, google has the best relevance and presents the results in a way that I find easy to decide what pages are best for me. 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.\nhttp://www.grokker.com/grokker.html?query=Anirudh%20Koul&Yahoo=true&Daypop=true&numResults=250"

tell me more about hannuka?,"Hanukkah, the Festival of Lights, is one of the most joyous times of the Jewish year. \n\nThe reason for the celebration is twofold (both dating back to c. 165 BCE): \n\nthe miraculous military victory of the small, ill-equipped Jewish army over the ruling Greek Syrians, who had banned the Jewish religion and desecrated the Temple; \n\nand the miracle of the small cruse of consecrated oil, which burned for eight days in the Temple's menorah instead of just one. \n\n\nHanukkah is celebrated by: \n\na. lighting a menorah for eight nights with olive oil or wax candles; one on the first night and an additional one each succeeding night \n\nb. eating food fried in oil, especially potato pancakes (latkes) and jelly doughnuts (sufganiyot) \n\nc. playing with a dreidel, a four-sided top; the player wins or loses money depending on which side it lands on (each is marked with a different Hebrew letter)\n\nIn 1997, a 60-foot, 18-ton menorah was built in Latrun, Israel; a rabbi was lifted by crane each night to kindle the lights. The same year, a 12-foot pyramid of 2,400 jelly doughnuts was built near Afula, Israel; the pastries were later distributed to soldiers serving near the northern border. \n\nHanukkah began this year (2005) on the evening of December 25.\n\nSee poster:\nhttp://www.allposters.com/-sp/Menorah-w-toys-candy-and-gifts-in-background-Posters_i1459268_.htm"

"Can the electorial college override the majority of the vote? if so, why?","Yes.  It is possible for the winner of an election to get as little as 39% of the vote, and carry the electoral college.  This happens when the winner wins by only a handful of votes in states he or she wins, and losing completely in all other states.\nThis is caused by the lack of proportional voting in states.  A states electoral votes, with exceptions of Maine and Nebraska, either go all to one candidate or the other.  If half the state votes one way, and half the other, the smaller half is effectively not counted.  With proportional voting, or district-level voting, this remains true, but it can only affect one vote per state, and is as likely to fall one way as the other.\nI hope this answered your question."

how is the RIAA catching individuals downloading pirated music?,"The short answer is, yes, of course they are tracking IPs.  The long answer to your other question follows.\n\nIt is a straight-forward, multistep process.\n\n1. Encourage laws that require internet service and server providers to log IP addresses (9/11 pretty much nailed that one for them).\n2. Collect proof of misdeeds for each particular P2P service that is allowing illegal file copying.\n3. Sue the P2P service and demand they hand over IP addresses of offending users.\n4. Trace IP addresses back to users.  Remember, the businesses involved all have to keep records.\n\nAlso, some programs embed identifying information in them.\n\nPretty much any Microsoft program, at least one that uses OLE Structured Storage, creates these huge ID numbers in them called a GUID for each item in the file.  Part of that ID number is their IP address or the unique hardware ID of their interface card, I forget which.\n\nAlso, the encoding process which generates an MP3 file from a CD can store some information in the file which can be used to piece together who created it. It may not be enough to find who did it but it is probably helpful in proving a given computer did it once they have that computer.\n\nThere is probably more going on but you get the idea. At each point along the way, from creating the song file, to transfering it to a service, and downloading it from a service, bits of information are accumulating.\n\nThe more times a person does each of these things, the easier it is to find them, prove it is them, and notice that they are doing a lot. And, just as important, more evidence is accumulating which is used in court as proof of a crime being committed and intent to commit a crime on the part of the peope being sued by the RIAA - or whoever.\n\nSo, either listen to: music you buy, public domain music, music from the radio - or compose/play your own.\n\nYou probably don't like it when you found out someone copied off your test at school.  It makes them get a higher grade than they deserve and if the test is graded on a curve, your A- work can wind up being counted as a B+.  \n\nWell, songwriters composed that music and/or lyrics, musicians practiced and learned to play that song and paid to use a recording studio to perform it in.  When people don't pay to hear that play, the musicians still have their expenses to pay but no royalty check to pay for it. They lose money doing what they love.\n\nEven if someone cannot afford a whole album they can still afford to buy their favorite song for 99 cents."

I've come to the realization that since I'm only in my early 30's, I'd rather take the risk with a root canal and keep my tooth, rather than have it yanked and either be toothless or pay a lot of money for other options that would still involve putting foreign substances in my mouth.  So, I guess my recommendation regarding root canals would be that if you are a healthy person, with a good immune system, a root canal would probably be a good option, rather than losing your tooth.  But, I do believe they could impact your health, and the decision should be an informed one."

who invented sudoku?,"The puzzle was designed by Howard Garns, a retired architect and freelance puzzle constructor, and first published in 1979. Most likely inspired by the Latin square invention of Leonhard Euler, Garns added a third dimension (the regional restriction) to the mathematical construct and (unlike Euler) presented the creation as a puzzle, providing a partially-completed grid and requiring the solver to fill in the rest. The puzzle was first published in New York by the specialist puzzle publisher Dell Magazines in its magazine Dell Pencil Puzzles and Word Games, under the title Number Place (which we can only assume Garns named it).\n\nIt was popularized by Nikoli in Japan, who gave it the current name of ""Sudoku."

what good laptop can recommend a college student ?,"I would check with your school to see if they have a existing relationship with a PC manufacturer. Many times colleges get a killer deal when you consider they also include insurance and maintenance for the whole time you are in school. \n\nIf they have no deals or you don't like their deal, then I can recommend a ThinkPad. They are not the latest and greatest technology, but they are solid and easy to get serviced. We have had a few ThinkPads go down, but the local service companies handled the warranty repair without me having to ship the thing in, usually within a day or so. \n\nBut again, I know some Universities that handle repairs in house as well, even giving out loaners while the repair happens, so it's worth it to find out what your school offers."

What is RSS?,"""RSS"" stands for Really Simple Syndication, Rich Site Summary, and/or Rockdale, Sandow, and Southern (Railroad) (if you trust the good folks at AcronymFinder.com). Really Simple Syndication is probably the most widely agreed-upon choice. As far as we are concerned, all three acronyms do an inadequate job of describing what RSS actually is: RSS is a standard for publishing regular updates to web-based content. Using this standard, Web publishers provide updates, such as the latest news headlines or weblog postings. Meanwhile, consumers use RSS reader applications (or one of a growing number of online services) to collect and monitor their favorite feeds in one place (RSS content from a publisher, viewed in one of these readers, is often called a ""feed"").\n\nIf you want to collect and browse feeds you have many choices, but there are two primary categories of feed reading applications: installable desktop programs and online services. There are many desktop applications for Windows and Mac OS system users, but two of our favorites are FeedDemon (Windows) and NetNewsWire (Mac OS X). Both require a small purchase price but are tops for ease of use and ship with dozens of feeds pre-loaded so you can explore the syndication ""universe"" right away. Free readers are available as well; a search for ""RSS Reader"" at popular search sites will yield many results.\n\nIf you would prefer to use an online service to track and manage your feeds, you have the advantage of being able to access your feed updates anywhere you use a web browser (and in some cases, on mobile devices). Also, any upgrades or new features are added automatically. The trade-off comes in different (some would say fewer) features and slightly slower performance versus desktop systems. NewsGator, Bloglines, and new RSS content capabilities in My Yahoo! are probably the three best-known examples of web-based feed reading services."

Any help for aging thin cancerous skin that's sensitive to almost everything?,"Please listen to me as I am only here to help. You have to do exactly as I say. Go to the website and look up CESIUM CHLORIDE AND OXYGEN DROPS. The other ones could be green algae and paw paw, etc etc. These medicines are known in the medical field, but they dont talk about it. Because these are natural remedies with no toxic chemicals in it. So, thats why they cant profit from it. If they cant profit, they dont sell. I mean, some are even made of mushrooms that you can grow anywhere. Why would they promote this? These doctors will never make money. So, the FDA has put a restriction on these remedies. They cannot say anything about cancer on their labels. They have to be sold as vitamins or health products. But, the website can tell you how to use it, and what cancers it can cure. See how they are suppressing the world? In fact these treatments can cure up to 90% of patients that doctors have already given up on. Chemo therapy is not a therapy. I would rather die then go through with that. They try to kill your cancer with chemicals and radiation. If they kill all your cancer before they kill all your body cells, then they consider you cured. But, what about after that? Your body is damaged and your health deteriorated. There is almost no recovery to this. How many people you know live past 5 years after chemo therapy? Not much if any at all. And compared to the masses, its almost nothing. What do you have to live with after chemo? Your body is not sunburned, its practically microwaved. CESIUM CHLORIDE can be taken with OXYGEN DROPS. Go to the websites. You can go to these websites and they will give a whole package for you to buy. You can take these medicines over the course of 3 months, a year, or whatever they prescribe. After your mom is feeling well, taking it for about 2 months or more, you can almost garauntee that you are cured. But, you have to listen to them and take it till they tell you to stop. They even cure certain 3rd stage cancers with a 90% success rate. But, time is of the essence so I urge you to buy it as soon as possible and take next day delivery or something. I wish you the best of luck in the future. But, heed my warning, do not go into chemo. They always tell you something fuzzy like, oh..you might live another 2 years, or you might die right away..etc etc....Then how do you decide? But, they always say that people who have been on chemo will only live a maximum of X years after that.  So, if you do exactly what I say, not only will you have a chance to survive, but all your friends that may get cancer..."

'Intelligent Design' should be better named 'Malevolent Design'. Do you agree ?,"Intelligent design embodies a theology that features a god who is malicious toward people.  \n\n1.  When you look below the surface, the world is filled with evidence that leads open minded people to conclude that evolution has occurred.  This evidence comes from the fields of paleontology, paleogeography, biogeography, molecular biology, genetics, embryology, and probably lots of others.  The god of intelligent design would have had to rig this evidence in favor of misleading us.\n\n2.  If the god of intelligent design violates the natural laws he created to create living organisms and to create false evidence, how often does he do this?  For example, maybe two seconds ago, he created the us and the entire universe, including this message up to this point, my memory of having written it, and your memory of having read it thus far.  If god violates natural law, anything is possible.\n\n3.  If the intelligent design god is going to create the world in any whimsical way, then he created all the suffering that we endure when he could have created a world without suffering.  Either he willfuly created our suffering, or he is an inept creator.\n\n4.  If the existence of complex organisms proves the existence of an intelligent designer, then the existence of the intelligent designer proves the existence of a more intelligent designer who created him.  ...and an even more intelligent designer who created the second one.   ...and an even more than more intelligent designer who created the thrid one.  ...and so on, ad infinitum.  Which one should be worshiped?  What will happen to our souls if we worship the wrong one?\n\n5.  I'm sure that people better versed in philosophy and theology could add many more reasons to believe that the god of intelligent design is malicious."

Weather patterns could be altered, bringing drought to areas that used to have lots of rain, and rain to areas that used to be arid.\n\nRead any of the sources below, and you'll find more information about the causes and potential effects.

how is a digital camera work ?,"Most of the camera works exactly the same as any other... there's a lens that focuses and a shutter that is normally closed, blocking light from passing through the camera, but opens when you want to take a picture. In a film camera, the light that gets through the shutter while it is open hits film, which is chemically sensitive to light. Digital cameras use a charged-couple device instead. This is a photosensitive (sensitive to light) computer chip, which converts the light energy into information that can be read by a computer."

What is Linux?,"Linux Pronounced lee-nucks or lih-nucks. A freely-distributable open source operating system that runs on a number of hardware platforms. The Linux kernel was developed mainly by Linus Torvalds. Because it's free, and because it runs on many platforms, including PCs and Macintoshes, Linux has become an extremely popular alternative to proprietary operating systems.\n\nLinux is a computer operating system and its kernel. It is one of the most prominent examples of free software and of open-source development: unlike proprietary operating systems such as Windows and Mac OS, all of its underlying source code is available to the public and anyone can freely use, modify, and redistribute it.\n\nIn the narrowest sense, the term Linux refers to the Linux kernel, but it is commonly used to describe entire Unix-like operating systems (also known as GNU/Linux) that are based on the Linux kernel combined with libraries and tools from the GNU Project and other sources. Most broadly, a Linux distribution bundles large quantities of application software with the core system, and provides more user-friendly installation and upgrades.\n\nInitially, Linux was primarily developed and used by individual enthusiasts. Since then, Linux has gained the support of major corporations such as IBM, Sun Microsystems, Hewlett-Packard, and Novell for use in servers and is gaining popularity in the desktop market. Proponents and analysts attribute this success to its vendor independence (the opposite of vendor lock-in), low cost, security, and reliability.\n\nLinux was originally developed for Intel 386 microprocessors and now supports all popular computer architectures (and several obscure ones). It is deployed in applications ranging from embedded systems (such as mobile phones and personal video recorders) to personal computers to supercomputers.\n\n\nTo know much more about linux Read the very good article\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LINUX"

Were there any Marines that saw service in the European theater during WW II?,"Shortly after the United States entered World War II, the Allies agreed that the European Theater would have priority in the war over the Pacific Theater. The Marine Corps' war was in the Pacific and all war plans regarding the employment of Marines reflected that. Nevertheless, because the Marine Corps was part of the naval establishment, it had responsibility also for furnishing men to parts of the Navy assigned to the European and Mediterranean theaters and to the operations conducted there.\n\nThese were not large Marine formations, but were, for the most part, individual Marines and small detachments assigned to guard duty at the barracks and naval operating bases established in the United Kingdom, or men assigned as ""sea-going"" Marines in the detachments of the large fighting ships. Another category was filled by those intrepid Marines who volunteered for duty with the Office of Strategic Services (OSS), to undertake covert operations with the underground against the Nazis in the occupied countries of Europe and North Africa."
"why the movie brokeback mountain, hasn't been shown in all movie theaters?","Cowboys have become an American icon, the very essence of manhood.  The idea that cowboys could be just normal everyday people with everyday problems is disturbing to a lot of the general public.  The thought that for example ""the Marlboro Man"", could be homosexual or bisexual ruins the mystique and romantic ideology of the whole post civil war era, Go West Young Man theme that our culture has come to take as the honest to God truth.  The fact that homosexuality has been around since before the Ancient Greco-Roman eras and was commonly accepted, even encouraged has been forgotten or buried under our more ""MORALISTIC"" current society.  The premise of this movie is totally realistic, and i look forward to seeing it, even though i am a happily married cowgirl to a most-definitely heterosexual equally happy cowboy.  Grow up people, accept and embrace the differences in our society or at the very least keep your fire and brimstone speeches and attitudes out of the theatres and in the church houses where they belong!"

what is the pre-n router?,"Many organizations utilize wireless local area networks (WLAN) because of their convenience. The trade-off made is convenience for speed. Today’s most advanced wireless standard, IEEE 802.11g, operates at roughly half the speed of the most common 100 Mbit/s wired LAN. The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) began to address this speed differential in the middle of 2003. Their vision was IEEE 802.11n, which would provide speeds equal to or greater than 100 Mbit/s LANs. Their work has yet to be completed. The lack of approval has led some to release so-called Pre-N equipment, which seeks to give the benefits of the 802.11n standard without an official standard. Because there is no official standard, implementing these products has future implications to customers.\n\n\nStandards\n\nStandards are made for very specific reasons. Foremost, they ensure that devices can operate with devices made by other manufacturers. Essentially, when a company releases a product before the ratification of the standard, they must infer what the IEEE is going to set. These inferences mean that the product may be incompatible with the final standard. If this does occur, an organization may be locked in to purchasing only identical hardware to that which they own. This would ensure compatibility.\n\n\nImplications\n\nAnother possibility if incompatibility exists is the release of an upgrade. The company would not be required to release updates, but if it did, there would be considerable work for the support groups. This may include individually upgrading each device, a very time consuming proposition. Despite the time commitment, an upgrade would be the most responsible course of action for the company because the customers would be able to choose any 802.11n solution for their purposes.\n\n\nImplementation\n\nIf an organization chooses to implement the Pre-N technology, the theory is the same as previous wireless network implementations. The setup would most likely begin with a router. This would be hard-wired to the Internet connection. There are also wired ports on the rear of the router. These allow any wired device to be included on the network. The router would then provide access to any device in its range with a compatible network interface card (NIC.) Currently, NICs exist for both desktop computers and notebook computers.\n\n\nAdvantages/Conclusions\n\nThe advantages to using this technology are clear. It will allow computers to connect easily to wireless networks, without sacrificing the speed possible with a wired connection. Another concern that comes up is that gigabit Ethernet is also available. If an organization were to implement this, 802.11n would again be just one-tenth of the speed. The implementation of any wireless network must be carefully considered. Regardless of which standard is followed, the security threats are common.

Is DNA the real map from where we come from and where we go to????,"Interestingly phrased.\n\nYes, I would say that DNA is the map from where we are coming from. Researchers are using DNA and the relative similarities of certain sequences to deduce just how long ago we diverged from previous forms.\n\nWhat I mean by that: evolutionarily speaking, everything living on earth today can be traced back to a common ancestor (LUCA - Last Universal Common Ancestor). The bigger the difference in the sequences of two species DNA, the longer ago we diverged from that common ancestor and the less related the two organims are to one another -- meaning there are more intermediate organisms between their current status and the ancient ancestor shard by the two.\n\nWe can use DNA not just to illucidate species broad histories, but individual histories too. We have a very unique piece of DNA in our cells. It is contained in our mitochandria. Mitochandria are little energy plants in our cells. The DNA in mitochandria, unlike the rest of our DNA, as we know it, is passed down only from our mothers. So, based on that, this DNA is less diverse. Any differences in this DNA has to come from mutations. Because the mutation rate is relatively slow, there are key ""markers"" that have appeared from time to time in specific subgroups of humans over time. So the markers you contain in your mitochandrial DNA are indicative of where which subgroup you are a decenent of. These subrgroups can be indicative of races, but as the more information we collect on the various markers from around the world, we'll be able to determine specific regions from which your ancestors lived and migrated to throughout history.\n\nAs far as a map to where we are going, I would say that DNA is that too, but that is less able to be predicted. Our DNA will definitely determine how our species continues to evolve. Let me give you an example. Let's say that this bird flu pandemic that the media has been stressing over the past 6 months actually does happen sometime in the future. An individuals ability to survive such a pandemic will be directly linked to their specific genetic sequence. Some will be innately immune to infection and thus will probably survive the pandemic. Others will not be so lucky. If the speculation is true and hundreds of millions of people do die, their genetic makeup will be eliminated -- thus those genes that make up those people will be removed from the general gene pool. The remainder of people will determine the fate of humankind. If another pandemic was to follow years down the road and the genes that were left over were succeptble to that infection, it could mean the end of the human race. More than likely though, there will always be some subset of the population whose genes allow for survival. From there, the future of humans depends on how overall fit those genes are."

Why do girls try to have sex with you then expect you to want a relaitonship or feel its the next step.?,"Alot of females lack an amount of respect for themselves. So they deem the amount of sex or the intensity of the act as a means of actually being with someone. Rather than establishing the relationship first and allowing the loving to be the icing on the cake. It's kind of like when we were kids and played make believe. However,the difference would be that we adventually snapped back to reality. As mentioned previously, woman are emotional creatures and once a guy hitz it the right way or tells us something we like to hear. Woman pretty much lose their minds...so sorry fellas but that's just the way it is..."

Who is nicolaus copernicus?,"""Mikołaj Kopernik (February 19, 1473–May 24, 1543), more commonly known by the Latin form Nicolaus Copernicus, was a Polish astronomer, mathematician and economist, mainly remembered for developing a scientifically useful heliocentric (Sun-centered) theory of the solar system. His main occupations and services rendered were in Royal Prussia, as church canon, governor and administrator, economist, jurist, physician, astrologer and military leader (conducting defense against the Teutonic Order). Amid all his responsibilities, he treated astronomy as a hobby. His theory about the Sun as the center of the Universe, opposed to the traditional geocentric theory that placed Earth at the center, is considered one of the most important discoveries ever, and is the fundamental starting point of modern astronomy and modern science itself (it inaugurated a scientific revolution). His theory affected many aspects of human life, opening the door for young astronomers, scientists and scholars to take a skeptical attitude toward established dogma."""

What are the chances that Israel launches an attack to prevent Iranian nuclear ambitions?,Israel will launch an attack on Iran only if it feels that it is the only way to prevent an attack. I could see Israel bombing a vehicle that was to supply enriched Uranium if they felt that bombing this vehicle would delay Iran's Nuclear plans by some significant aount of time.\n\nNote that when Israel launched an attack in Iraq's Nuclear plant (condemned by the world at the time) they made sure to do so when they knew there would be minimal casualties on the ground.

How can I get very rich quickly and easily?,"Send me $1,000 and I'll get back to you (just kidding).  There are no successful get rich quick schemes. What works for one person will not work for most others.  The best and most successful way to get rich is through a successful budget plan, realistic and thoughtful goals, hard work, diversification and sacrifice.  At the age of 29 you should first learn to save some between those paychecks. Find out what you spend your money on and spend less of it.  Do not use credit except for home mortgage, and prepare for regular maintenance.  Once you are able to save you will be able to invest in inovative minimal risk investments that will grow over time.  These are and always will be the only sure fire road to wealth."

if my credit is bad how do i get a loan to get on the right track and pay all my debts?,"If you have past due accounts with collection agencies your best bet is to try and settle the debt with them for a portion of what you owe.  Your credit report will reflect the account as a paid settlement.  If you have medical bills you should make a payment to them every month, even if it is only ten dollars.  Most hospitals and doctors offices will not send your account to collections if you are still making small payments each month.  If you owe a credit card company they usually agree to drop interest charges or late payments in return for a lump sum payment to pay off your account.  If you still want a loan to pay your debts you should consider a secured loan from a bank or credit union.  They use your house or automobile as collateral until you pay off the loan.  Your other choice is to have a credit worthy friend or relative who has good credit co-sign the loan with you.  The only down side is that if you are late making loan payments or stop paying on it the co-signer gets his or her credit hurt as well as yours."

How do I get motivated to go to the GYM?,"Passion\n\nI've received the question about motivation to workout several times. A bit back, I emailed a fellow who simply wished the question of motivation could be answered.\n\nI think the 2 most frequently asked questions that I address in my Beginners' Guide to Fitness and Bodybuilding are:\n\n1) How do I get motivated?\n2) How soon can I expect to see results?\n\nAfter doing some research today, I think the ultimate key to motivation is:\n\nPassion\n\nYes, p-a-s-s-i-o-n\n\nWithout that burning desire to succeed, most things will elude you. Desire comes from an interest that can grow into passion.\n\nIf you have a passion for something, you'll do whatever it takes to be successful. Without it, you'll only be partly committed and only partly successful.\n\nTake a look at any major sports star or entertainer, the passion they have for their sport is obvious. It is what drives them to succeed and motivates them to give 100%. Without it, they would just be average.\n\nTo be successful in the pursuit of fitness, it needs to become a passion. So if you don't have a strong interest in becoming fit, I suggest you find other activities you do enjoy. Getting fit isn't something anybody does well as a passing interest.\n\nBut do realize that you need to know more about fitness in general before you can develop a real enthusiasm for it. In my case, as I kept learning more and more about training, nutrition and supplements, my interest really started to grow.\n\nAnd understand that you don't need to be obsessive about working out. You can be very successful just doing 45 minutes a session, 3 times a week. You don't need to live in the gym or spend every second thinking about working out."
Wasn't Jesus a Gnostic or an Essenes?,"Gnosticism was long thought to be a corruption of Christianity but more current thinking is that its roots are pre-Christian. It is highly unlikely, though not absolutely proveable that Jesus was not a Gnostic. The Essenes were a splinter Jewish sect so that was around during Jesus' life. There are some who believe that Jesus was an Essene. Others believe he spent some of his wilderness time with Essenes. Still others think that he never encountered yhe Essenes. Most who compare the recorded thoughts of Jesus with the recorded Essene tracts believe that they are incompatible. It is very unlikely, though not absolutely proveable, that Jesus was ever an Essene."

Does cancelling store credit cards help or hurt your credit score?,"It may actually hurt you FICO score.\n\nOne part of the score is the amount of credit used versus the amount of credit available. So, let's take a look at an example:\n\n$200 total credit available\n$175 total credit used\n Ratio of 0.875 (high)\n\n$5000 total credit available\n$1000 total credit used\n Ration of 0.2 (relatively low)\n\nThe bottom ration of 0.2 is more ideal. Credit companies have found that the higher the ratio a person has (they get credit and max it out), the less likely they will pay it off.\n\nOf course some store credit cards do not report to the credit bureaua unless you go to collections. So it doesn’t matter what you do with them as long as you don’t stop paying them.\n\nIt’s best to just hold on to them. You might even consider having the credit limit taken up (but don’t max them out). It’s not how much of a limit you have that’s important to the credit companies, it how much of it you’re using.\n\nAlso you may want to consider the fact that although your credit score may not be affected very much if you cancel your card, if the store reports to the credit bureau, other companies will see that you canceled a card. To other companies, this means if they give you credit, you’re likely to just cancel it. Meaning you may be more of a hassle than you’re worth.\n\nHope this helps."
"How far did you go in Math? Algebra? Calulus 18? lol, Does it help you in life today? Or was it worthless?","The farthest I went was Calculus II in college.  Do I use advanced calculus in my everyday life?  No.  \n\nHowever, it's not the idea of using it in everyday life, it's the problem solving skills you gain that make you smarter.  It helps to show you there are many ways to approach problems and helps you choose the best way to try solving them.  Don't give up on difficult subjects like these in school.  While you may not use the concepts day to day, you'll use problems solving skills every day for the rest of your life."

And a person can't be considered insane just for letting a ban on automatic weapons run could he? Or how about pulling out an international agreement to decrease emissions? That isn't insane either.\n\nHe isn't insane... just plain wrong."

what kind of things did people do to get motivated to lose weight im having a hard time?,"Motivation is a hard thing. I've lost right at 150 lbs. & I'll try to explain the thought processes that led up to the weight loss, hoping to help you in the process :)\n\nFor me, part of it was a result of marrying my husband. He could care what I looked like but for some silly reason, I suddenly developed a sense of vanity...don't know why. Maybe because I am older than him, I don't know. Anyway, here's the real meat of it.\n\nTo tell the complete & honest truth, I was getting dressed one day & having one of those days where you don't feel comfortable in your own skin; nothing wanted to sit correctly on my body, I was in a bad mood to begin with &, well, I was just having a case of ""bad nasties"". I went through the entire day in this state & ended up walking by a store...Victoria's Secret, to be exact. My husband, the saint who managed to put up with me that day, commented on something in the window. He mentioned that he liked the item & wondered if he might find a place on the internet that made it in my size. It didn't make me feel bad, per se, because he accepts my size as a fact of life & has never been mean about it. But it just hit me oddly. I looked at the outfit &, though I knew that we could probably find it online somewhere, the idea of how I might look in it really bothered me.\n\nThat's what did it...that's what started the whole process. By the time we got home that night, my thoughts had worked around to the fact that I was tired of always being tired, tired of always feeling bad, tired of always not fitting into the clothes that I'd like to wear. I was tired of being fat, plain & simple. Even so, there was no easy way to take care of it &, having been overweight all my life, I knew that a simple diet wasn't going to cut it for me. So, here's how I handled it...\n\nWhen I eat, I eat ANYTHING I want...I'm not kidding. True, I try to keep mindful of what I'm eating but I also don't beat myself up about it. If I want a banana split, I darned well have a banana split. When I looked at what I ate, when & how I ate it, I realized that I ate in cycles during the month &, though I love sweets, my natural inclination was not to have them very often. The big problem for me was breads.\n\nAnyway, I just kept mindful of HOW MUCH I ate, not so much what I ate. I trained myself to realize when I was full & to make myself stop eating. As for this trick, you must always remember that it takes about twenty minutes for your stomach to signal your brain that it is full. So, I'd eat slowly, chew my food twice as long as I used to &, sure enough, I felt full rather quickly. Once I had that under control & truly listened to my body, I was constantly giving away nearly half of my food every meal.\n\nIt has taken me a number of years to lose the weight & the last 50 pounds has brought along a new re-evaluation of how small my stomach has gotten - we've wasted quite a bit of food over the past few months in that little quest - but I've gotten to the point now that I can go to Victoria's Secret & at least try on a few things :) I'm not into what I really want to wear but, hey, you take the successes where you can.\n\nAs I started to lose weight, the main thing that kept me going was how well I felt as well as clothes. I realized that, while I am not your regular clothes horse, I like the little game of moving from one size to another. I was in tears the first day & was able to purchase clothes off of the rack &, recently, when I was able to buy panties off of the racks instead of in the packages...OMG, I thought my husband was going to go insane. It took me over four hours to try on undergarments until I was satisfied with the look & fit! But you know what? I feel better about my body than I ever have & I thoroughly enjoy the look my husband gets on his face when he sees me! That's motivation, I can promise you...\n\nMy suggestion after all"

Is Portuguese an easy language to lean?,"I wouldn't recommend that you do that.  A language is not a tangible thing, so you'll find Portugese really hard to lean.\n\nIf you're asking about ""learning"" Portugese, it may not be as difficult as you think.  First, it'd be easier to learn compared to Arabic, Chinese or Slavic languages since the LAtin alphabet is used.  Second, it's a language of the Indo-Eurasian family, so if your first language is English, you'll have grammatical similarities and even many words of common roots (compare that to learning say an Altaic language).  Lastly, you say there are people speaking Portugese in your family, which enables you to practice it in daily life. Plus you probably already have an affinity with the sounds and the intonation of that language.\nLearning new languages is fun and eventually useful, and it is a wonderful exercise for your brain. Go for it!"
"My ex and I ""date"" but haven't been official in 9 years. How do I tell him that I still luv him and want more?","You are being used for booty and will never be anything more to him.

Open bills in front of them, and complain aloud about how high they've gotten.\nIf you want your house back, then be kind but blunt... Sit down with them and say ""I have loved having you here, but I'm afraid that I can't have you stay much longer...I have XXXXX happening in a couple of weeks and need to have some time to myself before that, but it's sure been fun!""\nOr lie and tell them your landlord has reminded you of the terms of your lease and your rent will be raised if they stay more than another week.\nGood luck!"

Does anybody know a good leg exercise? ( I have bad knees sooo...)?,"unless the cracking is painful, it is not unusual or dangerous for your knees to ""crack"".\n\nLunges are excellent for strengthening the muscles around the knee joint. Make sure that you are not leaning over the knee, that the knee is right above the foot during the lunge and that you maintain a straight upright movement.\n\nDo not do hamstring excercises that will pull on the knee joint if you have problems with your knee. \n\nelipticals are good for running on with minimal knee and ankle stress. \n\nyou can also get large elastic bands...stand in them, and step out to the side pulling on the bands, then back in. Don't pull harder than is comfortable, this will help increase the stablization of the knee.\n\nLaying on your back you can pull your knee to your chest, and then extend it, locking your knee holding the leg just over the ground..repeating, this will also help strengthen the muscles around the knee with minimal weight on it.\n\nAlways is good to speak with a doctor or physical therapist if you have concerns."

Is Psylocke a villain in X-Men??,"It depends.  They COULD be taking a spin off the more recent stuff where there were two Psylockes.  In the early 20's issues of X-men, there was a big brouhaha about how Revanche came back, essentially a carbon-copy (though she said she was the original!) Psylocke with the same powers, etc., but with the old-school look she had waayyyy back in the older ish of Uncanny.  However, she had a mean streak in her... \n\nI think it's entirely possible (seeing as how true to the book the previous two movies were as far as the characters go) that Psylocke would start out bad, and yet come into Xavier's fold.  You know, kinda like how Nightcrawler was in the second one...?"

"Is Charles Taze russell one of the 144,000 in Heaven? just Curious?","Yes, it seems so, as long as this question stipulates to the Jehovah's Witness understanding. \n\nRussell seems to have been part of 'the faithful and discreet servant' class mentioned at Matthew 24:45; for decades Russell wrote much of the Witnesses' spiritual 'food at the proper time'. Since Jehovah's Witnesses understand that 'faithful slave' class to represent all anointed Christians on the earth as a group, Russell must have been anointed, and thus among the 144,000 resurrected to heaven."

What is ottoman empire?,"Ottoman Empire also Turkish Empire\n\nA vast Turkish sultanate of southwest Asia, northeast Africa, and southeast Europe. It was founded in the 13th century by Osman I and ruled by his descendants until its dissolution after World War I. Originally a small state controlled by Ottoman or Osmanli Turks, it spread rapidly, superseding the Byzantine Empire in the east.\n\n\nOttoman Empire (ŏt'əmən) , vast state founded in the late 13th cent. by Turkish tribes in Anatolia and ruled by the descendants of Osman I until its dissolution in 1918. Modern Turkey formed only part of the empire, but the terms “Turkey” and “Ottoman Empire” were often used interchangeably.\nOrganization of the Empire\n\nEconomically, socially, and militarily, Turkey was a medieval state, unaffected by the developments in the rest of Europe. Turkish domination over the northern part of Africa (except Tripoli and Egypt) was never well defined or effective, and the eastern border was inconstant, shifting according to frequent wars with Persia. Of the vassal princes, only the khans of Crimea were generally loyal.\n\nThe sultans themselves had sunk into indolence and depravity. Until the ascension (1603) of Ahmad I, the succession to the throne was habitually contested by all the sons of the deceased sultan, and it was the patriotic duty of the victor to kill his rivals in order to restore order. Although this practice was barbarous, when it ceased other problems arose. The eldest male member of the family was recognized as the heir-designate, but to prevent threats to the sultan the imperial prince was denied any involvement in public affairs and was kept in luxurious imprisonment. When the prince finally ascended the throne, he was often alcoholic or lunatic.\n\nActual rule was usually exercised by the grand viziers, many of whom were able men (notably those of the Köprülü family). The sultans themselves often were the creatures of the Janissaries, whose favor was purchased by large gifts at the ascension of a sultan.\n\nOne of the most nefarious aspects of the court of Constantinople (known as the Seraglio and the Sublime Porte) was the all-pervading corruption and bribery that had been raised to a system of administration. The pashas and hospodars (governors) who administered the provinces and vassal states purchased their posts at exorbitant prices. They recovered their fortunes by extorting still larger sums from their subjects. The peasantry was thus reduced to abject misery.\n\nA positive feature in Ottoman administration was the religious toleration generally extended to all non-Muslims. This, however, did not prevent occasional massacres and discriminatory fiscal practices. In Constantinople the Greeks and Armenians held a privileged status and were very influential in commerce and politics. The despotic system of government was mitigated only by the observance of Muslim law.\n\nHistory\n\nOrigins\n\nThe Ottoman state began as one of many small Turkish states that emerged in Asia Minor during the breakdown of the empire of the Seljuk Turks. The Ottoman Turks began to absorb the other states, and during the reign (1451–81) of Muhammad II they ended all other local Turkish dynasties. The early phase of Ottoman expansion took place under Osman I, Orkhan, Murad I, and Beyazid I at the expense of the Byzantine Empire, Bulgaria, and Serbia. Bursa fell in 1326 and Adrianople (the modern Edirne) in 1361; each in turn became the capital of the empire. The great Ottoman victories of Kosovo (1389) and Nikopol (1396) placed large parts of the Balkan Peninsula under Ottoman rule and awakened Europe to the Ottoman danger. The Ottoman siege of Constantinople was lifted at the appearance of Timur, who defeated and captured Beyazid in 1402. The Ottomans, however, soon rallied.\n\nThe Period of Great Expansion\n\nThe empire, reunited by Muhammad I, expanded victoriously under Muhammad's successors Murad II and Muhammad II. The victory (1444) at Var"

Lithium can also be used to augment other antidepressant drugs. Useful amounts of Lithium for this use are only slightly lower than toxic amounts, so the blood levels of Lithium have to be carefully monitored during such a treatment."

What's the rate of heat loss through a domestic well-insulated wall per sqm when the heat differential is 15C?,"There are such values, called R-values.  They define the resistance to heat loss per unit time, temperature difference and area (i.e., higher is better).  These are English units, hour-degreeF-ft^2/BTU.  An R-value of 20 means that 100 sq. ft. of wall separating a 20 deg F temperature difference for 8 hours passes 800 BTU of heat.  Typical recommended R-values (ref. 1) for use in residences are 4 to 60, depending on climate and location in the house.  For walls the range is 11 to 28.  In the ref. 2 web site you can find R ratings for various insulation materials, in R-value per inch of insulation thickness, and thicknesses required for various recommended R-values."

what does it mean when the american flag is lowered on the pole?,"Half-staff or half-mast describes the act of flying a flag approximately halfway up a flagpole (though anywhere from one-third to two-thirds of the way up the flagpole is acceptable). This is done in many countries as a symbol of respect, mourning, or distress.\n\nWhen hoisting a flag that is to be displayed at half-staff, it should be hoisted to full staff for an instant, then lowered to half-staff. Likewise when it is lowered at the end of the day, it is to be hoisted to full staff for an instant, and then lowered.\n\nThe original flag 'etiquette' was to fly the flag at one flag's depth from the top of the hoist. With the larger flags on shorter hoists on public buildings the practice of 'half-mast' has now commonly become to fly the flag at true 'half-mast' regardless of the size of the flag or hoist."

What is the name of the planet beyond Pluto?,"There are actually several ""planet like"" objects beyond Pluto in an area called the Kuiper belt that contains thousands of objects that circle the sun.\n\nAt present none of them have been officially recognized as new planets. \nThe discovery of these new planet size objects including  2003 UB313 (nicknamed XENA), Sedna(in 2004) and Quaoar(in 2002 by the same team) have triggered a re-evaluation of the necessary criteria to call something a planet.\n\nIt is likely that this team at Caltech will  discover other objects to be added to the list of potential ""planets"" in our solar system.\n\n2003 UB313(nicknamed XENA unofficially) is larger than Pluto which leaves officials in a bit of dilemna.  How can they recognize Pluto as a planet and not this object?"
are masons satanic?,"This is a true question of semantics and religion.  Some would say that first of all, freemasonry has no connection to religion, so there is no way to say that masons are satanic.  Others might say that freemasons are inherently religious people with connections to their status in the society directly coorelating with their positions in their church of choice.  Still there are some people that claim further study into organized religions and freemasonry will show their origins are directly linked together, and that their purposes are twofold in so-called ""faith"" and the controlling of culture through that so-called ""faith""...thereby falling into suspicion of ""satanic"" influences.  It is true that freemason rites and rituals are very similar to that of witchcraft, satanic followings, and even some lesser known culture followings such as hermetics...all of which have had their purposes challenged as satanic from the general, unknowing public.\n\nThe truth is that you will never know the answer to your question by asking it here, and you cannot confirm any answer you might recieve without experiencing the masonic rites yourself.  Furthermore, any member of a masonic society will claim no knowledge of satanic connections to their brotherhood.  The secrets of these societies are replete with whispers of foul play and undertones of godless or godlike actions and/or beliefs.  \n\nYour answer lies in your question.

Is Bush a good president?,"No.\n\n1. He uses his religion to dictate policy.\n2. He lies to the american people, often not for their own good.\n3. He misleads the commanders and generals in the field to get his own agend passed.\n4. He lies and misleads the United Nations.\n5. He wiretapps innocent americans and expects to pass it off as anti-terrorism efforts.\n6. He has started a huge 'political and religious' war against terrorists, and neglects to cover losses in the united states such as hunger, drugs, poverty, guns and hate crimes.\n7. He is staunchly against gay and lesbian rights, which as they are americans should be affored the same rights and roles as everyone else.\n8. He flaunts his power, even though he doesn't have a clue on how to use it.  His IQ is one of the lowest of any president in history; he hasn't written any of his own speeches, let alone a book about his policy and life.  In general his intelligence leaves quite a bit to be desired.\n9. He doesn't seem to care about world policy; it is his way or the highway.\n10. He has put our boarders at risk, even from the canadians.\n11. He has severed ties to some of our oldest allies, simply because some of our allies think that he has gone to far in his push for world peace.\n12. He is constantly trying to push his world agenda onto other conountries, and forcing democracy into their countries without their consent.\n13. He doesn't feel that those who are not christian should have the same rights as those that are.\n14. He doesn't feel that POW's are entitled to any basic civil liberties.\n15. He doesn't aggree with the Geneva Convention, in fact he has wanted to rewrite it several times.\n16. He wants to actually remove us from our seat at the UN, which would be catastrophic to the agency as we hold a founding seat.\n17. He has invaded Iraq under false pretenses, and continously defends our rights there; whereas we should have no rights there as that is NOT our country or our protectorate, instead it is the soverign right of the iraqi people, not americans.\n18. He neglects his duty as president and spends more than 1/2 his normal time and term on vacation or away from the white house.\n19. He cuts funding to military bases, military outposts, military members and families; and then increases funding for anti terrorism funds with said cuts.\n20. He cuts funding for military housing for families in need.\n\nThose are the top 20 reason why i believe he is a bad president."
is it ever to late to save your marriage even though you have a rocky past?,It sounds like she's not interested in working things out.

Unless you were lucky and bought it when it was unlimited for $19.99."

Why do inmates of state correctional systems have more rights than citizens of the free world?,"While they don't have more rights.  I talked to a former KKK grand dragon who had people that would actually commit crimes just before winter so they would have a warm place to stay.  Honestly, prison should be like the jail down in Arizona where they live in tents eat rotten meat and have to work on chain gangs.  They should not have a right to an education, they should not have a right to cable tv, should not have a right to weight lifting equipment.\n\nPrisons are refered to as thug university for a reason."

Who will win if the Silver Surfer & Superman ever meet one on one?,"This is a pretty clear cut case. Despite his cosmic powers, Norrin Radd is no match for the man of steel. Superman would eat the surfer alive...\n\nUnless...\n\nThe Surfer was able to lure Superman far enough from Earth's yellow sun that Clark Kent would find himself powerless in the depths of space.\n\nDisclaimer: I am a Marvel-head almost exclusively. If there is compelling evidence that Superman can travel great distances from the sun without losing his powers then there is not a prayer for the surfer. Any DC people have any information on this?"

what is the difference between DVD+R and DVD-R ?,"DVD-R (pronounced ""DVD dash R"") and DVD+R (pronounced ""DVD plus R"") are nearly identical formats. The discs look the same and are both supported by most DVD-ROM drives and DVD burners. The only difference between the formats is the way they determine the location of the laser beam on the disc. DVD-R discs use tiny marks along the grooves in the discs, called land prepits, to determine the laser position. DVD+R discs do not have land prepits, but instead measure the ""wobble frequency"" as the laser moves toward the outside of the disc.\n\nThe DVD-R format was developed by Pioneer and was released in the second half of 1997. DVD+R was developed by Sony and Philips and was introduced in 2002. Companies that support DVD-R include Pioneer, Toshiba, Hitachi, and Panasonic, while companies that support DVD+R include Sony, Philips, Hewlett-Packard, Ricoh, and Yamaha.\n\nHowever, most of these companies now develop hybrid DVD drives that support both DVD-R and DVD+R formats. They are known as DVD±R or DVD±RW drives. When looking for media for your DVD drive, make sure it ends in ""-R"" if you have a DVD-R drive or ""+R"" if you have a DVD+R drive. If you have a DVD±R drive, you can use either format. DVD-R is still more popular than DVD+R, but since they are both widely supported, it should not matter which format you choose."
Is it worth doing Masters from University of Southern California?,"As someone in the technology field in the Los Angeles area, I would have to say that the USC degree is worth more than one from CSULA, because of the quality of the professors and program. USC's EE program is much higher rated that any CS school--in fact it's ranked among MIT, Stanford, Caltech, CMU, and others as one of the top schools in the nation according to the U.S. News and World Report. (That said, I got my own degree there...) The rankings were 1. MIT 2. Stanford 3. Berkeley 4. Georgia Tech / U of Illinois Urbana 6. Univ. of Michigan 7. USC Viterbi School 8. Caltech 9. Carnegie Mellon 10. Purdue."

should I buy or rent in California?,"Both buying and renting in California can be expensive, depending on the area you're looking to live in.  My husband and I were paying $900 a month in 2001 for a two bedroom, two bath apartment (900 sq ft) in Anaheim, CA.\n\nWhen we purchased our home in 2002, we were paying $1700 a month in mortgage payments for a 3 bedroom 2 1/2 bath home that is 1700 sq ft.  \n\nOur mortgage payment has since dropped, since we refinanced and got a lower interest rate.  I'm certain the rent price would've only increased year after year, as it had been.\n\nIf you can afford to purchase a house in California, I would consider doing so.  The investment is well worth it."

"Can the American Democratic party recover from its anti-liberation, anti-American stupidity before 2008?","They sure picked a bad time to open their mouths and say stupid things.  I know I won't forget what they did at this time.  What they have been doing borders on being anti-American, even treasonous.

Can I die from anxiety problems?  What can I do to take all the anxiety problems out of my body forever?,"A direct result from anxiety disorder isn't usually death, but it can certainly feel like you could die at times. If left untreated it could snowball into other problems, I suppose. For instance, if your anxiety is preventing you from leaving the house, you could be missing out on excersize. Just a small example.\n\nThe best thing to do is seek therapy and find out what it is that is the trigger for you. It can be crippling, and nobody should have to live like that. \n\nFor a quick fix, Xanax or a Benzo drug is effective, but not good for long term use. Zoloft is excellent, and non-addictive. The drugs are pointless without counseling though as you need to address the cause so it doesn't return after you stop your medication. It will help you to talk to someone. \nIf you don't wish to use medication, this is an excellent book that can help you better understand what you are going through. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1572244135/qid=1135212967/sr=2-1/ref=pd_bbs_b_2_1/104-5484893-1187962?s=books&v=glance&n=283155\nAnother helpful link: http://www.npadnews.com/faqs.asp#4\n\nGood luck!"

does the type of water have an effect on grass growth?,"When I was an undergraduate I did an experiment with some classmates in a blant biology lab class related to this question.  We collected soil from two areas: one area that received drainage from a local copper mine, and one close area that didn't receive the drainage.  We put the soil in water to extract the contents and used the water to water some wheatgrass seeds.  The grass watered with the extract of the drainage soil was different in color, shorter, and had fewer root hairs, as I recall.  In other words, it was less healthy.  In our experiment, then, the type of water definitely had an effect on the growth of the grass."

Is heaven really real?,i belive its real in your heart
Would you have a better chance of going to heaven if ...?,"This is not a question. Be honest with yourself and us. \n\nBut if you want the truth, there is only one sin and one sin alone that keeps us from heaven, and that is not receiving God's free gift of salvation through His Son. You need to realize that good works do NOT get us to heaven. You cannot buy your way there, that is why Jesus had to pay the price for us. It is a debt we could not pay. But don't worry, if you want your companion more than God, He will not stand in the way of your decision, that is what free will is for. If you are willing to pay an eternal price for such a decision, it will be your choice and your choice alone. You might want to talk to God about it first."

what is a quantum leap?,"a quantum leap is when an electron gets excited, moving it to the next energy level, and then falls back down.  This falling back down produces energy in the form of light. (this is the reason neon lights and similar lights light up, the electrons get excited by the electricity, and the process of them falling down produces energy in the form of light. The color is determined by which energy level it is falling from and into, and usually remains consistent for each element.) Well anyway, the electron jumping from one energy level to the next is called a 'quantum leap'"

This disease often has no symptoms, is usually diagnosed by tests that indicate glucose intolerance, and is treated with changes in diet and an exercise regimen."

Once the hardware and software are installed, simply hook the gamecube up to the Tuner card as though it were a TV, and the software will let you view the console output on your computer monitor.\n\nBasically, turn your computer into a TV and everything falls into place for hooking standard TV accessories to it."

Is it really all that difficult for a female to be elected US president?,"Even if the right supports Condi in the Presidential Cabinet, I really doubt their support would run all of the way to the Presidency. There are far to many in the ""religion right"" that would have a ideological problem with a woman being President. \n\nAs for Hillary, I think she could get a lot of support from the more liberal left, but still not enough to be elected. Not to mention there is A LOT of dirt on her. The realities of who she is would turn away all but the most liberal minded. \n\nSo yes, I think it is difficult for a female to be elected. I wouldn't rule it out for the future, but for now I find it highly unlikely it could be accomplished."

what is a transistor laser?,"A transistor laser is a solid-state device (i.e., fabricated in much the same way as computer chips) that emits coherent light--that is, light with essentially a single wavelength (a ""pure"" color) in which all of the wave crests are aligned.  This differs from light emitting diodes (LEDs), which are somewhat simpler solid-state devices that emit a range of wavelengths and do so in many directions at once.  Unlike traditional, bulky lasers, a transistor laser can be mass-manufactured very cheaply, and it can provide a natural bridge between electronic components and optical ones (e.g., fiber-optic networks).\n\nBecause the wave crests in laser light are all aligned, there is essentially no destructive interference between different light waves, so this form of light is very efficient in terms of power requirements and transmission distance.  That's why lasers are used in optical networking (especially telephony and long-haul Internet backbones) and also why it's dangerous to stare at one (the light energy is transferred to your retina so efficiently that it can destroy the cells)."

Its like the old Polaroid camera - the camera was cheap, the film was expensive.\nI get my ink from ABC Ink.  For an older Epson printer, I pay $3.00 for black and about $4 to $5 for color.\nMy recommendation: before buying a printer, check the Internet for price of ink for that printer. Pick the printer that meets your needs that has the cheapest ink.\nAlso, there is now a business that will refill your empty ink cartridges for about 1/2 the price of a new one.  You can use Google to see if there is one near you.  But for my Epsons, the internet has the lowest prices."

These correspond to the seven deadly sins, each terrace causing the purging of a particular sin in an appropriate manner:\n\n    * Terrace 1: Pride, by carrying a heavy weight on their backs. The wearer is unable to stand up straight (Cantos 10 through 12).\n    * Terrace 2: Envy, by having one's eyes sewn shut, and wearing clothing that makes the soul indistinguishable from the ground (Cantos 13 through 15).\n    * Terrace 3: Wrath, by walking around in acrid smoke (Cantos 15 through 17).\n    * Terrace 4: Sloth, by continually running (Cantos 18 and 19).\n    * Terrace 5: Avarice, by lying face-down on the ground (Cantos 19 through 21).\n    * Terrace 6: Gluttony, by abstaining from any food or drink (Cantos 22 through 24).\n    * Terrace 7: Lust, by burning in an immense wall of flames (Cantos 25 through 27).""(1)"

hard and soft ecotourist?,"Ecotourism is loosely defined as nature-based tourist experiences, whereby visitors travel to regions for the sole purpose of appreciating their natural beauty.\n\nHard ecotourism is intense sometimes strenuous ecotourism that may involve non-hotel accommodations. It tends toward longer, specialized trips by small groups within a wilderness or semi-wilderness setting mediated by minimal services; also called active, deep or eco-specialist ecotourism, this constitutes only a very small portion of the total ecotourism sector.\n\nSoft ecotourism is the most common form, where tourists hope to observe nature and culture closely, but casually. It is technically defined as ecotourism that tends toward shorter, multi-purpose trips within well-serviced areas frequented by large numbers of ecotourists; also called passive, shallow or popular or eco-generalist ecotourism, this accounts for most ecotourism activity."

How many dimensions are we really able to perceive?,"Classical physics theories describe three physical dimensions: from a particular point in space, the basic directions in which we can move are up/down, left/right, and forward/backward. Movement in any other direction can be expressed in terms of just these three.\n\nTime is often referred to as the ""fourth dimension"". It is, in essence, one way to measure physical change. It is perceived differently from the three spatial dimensions in that there is only one of it, and that movement seems to occur at a fixed rate and in one direction. The equations used by physics to model reality often do not treat time in the same way that humans perceive it.\n\nTheories such as string theory predict that the space we live in has in fact many more dimensions (frequently 10, 11 or 26), but that the universe measured along these additional dimensions is subatomic in size. As a result, we perceive only the three spatial dimensions that have macroscopic size."

There are, however, good men out there...it just normally takes them awhile to gain the maturity needed to be a partner in a relationship.\n\nWhy do they lose you & then want you back? Simple; some are incapable of seeing how good a thing they had until it is gone & immature enough to think that a little ""I love you"" will make everything better. They don't understand that, if a man really loves a woman, he doesn't intentionally hurt her...whether physically or emotionally.\n\nGood luck & keep trying! You'll find a good guy.

Do all diabetics have realy dry skin?,"No - I'm diabetic, and I don't have dry skin.\n\nIt can be a complication of diabetes, though, because diabetes can damage small blood vessels and nerves, which causes damage to the skin. It's especially common in the winter. Also, I believe (though I haven't confirmed) that the frequent small needle-sticks needed to take glucose readings can irritate the skin and contribute to problems.\n\nFor more information about diabetes and dry skin, see the link below."
How do I keep my mother out of my marriage?,"Mothers don't stop being mothers just because their daughters grow up and get married. They just aren't wired that way. It might help to talk with your mom about how you and your husband feel when she shows annoyance. Do this when things are calm, not in the heat of the moment. It might also help for you and your husband to talk about how you can enjoy each other and your relationship more privately so that your mom is not exposed to your husband's playfulness.\n\nYou might also just have to learn to live with it and not let it get to you. You can probably figure out a response to your mom that doesn't escalate the stress level. Let her know that you're glad she cares about how you are treated, but that you are comfortable with the way your relationship with your husband works."
What is the average age for a Western woman to get married? Is 27 too young?,"Absoutly not.

what is the main cause why computer gets a virus?,"As the other responders suggest, people don't practice safe computing.  Anti-virus, anti-spyware, firewall...all good and necessary.\n\nStill, most of us think that if we have the software (or hardware) protecting us, then we must be completely safe and we can go happily on our merry way.  I assure you, this is a false sense of security.  Do not trust the hardware or software to do the whole job for you.\n\nI believe the primary reason why computers get a virus is a lack of common sense.  To wit...\n- Be skeptical of anything you receive in e-mail that was not solicited, especially if it has an attachment.\n- Think twice before downloading that freeware.\n- Avoid Kazaa and the like.\n- Do review website certificates to satisfy yourself that the site you're heading for is really the site you wanted to go to.\n- Make sure you download and install every security patch your OS vendor provides.  You should manually review your vendor at least weekly...even if you have an automatic update feature.\n\nA few minutes spent on satisfying yourself that you've done everything you can do will provide you with peace of mind."

The IRS said i had to pay a penalty. i filed a dispute. am i legally obligated to pay unless they follow up?,"You didn't say what the penalty was for (late filing, late payment, interest, trust fund penalties, etc.). Nor did you state who is handling your dispute (IRS Appeals, Collection Due Process, Tax Court). There's slightly different rules depending on what's going on.\n\nThe basic process for handling penalties and disputes is outlined on the IRS website.\n\nIn general, the IRS will investigate whether you are responsible for the penalty, and will send up a notice informing you that the penalty was waived or that you really do owe the penalty. Interest will accrue if you really do owe the penalty, but you haven't paid it yet.\n\nGenerally, I advise my clients to pay all penalties in full, and then dispute the penalties. This shows a good faith effort, and stops additional penalties and interest from being added to the account. If we lose the dispute, at least the client paid only the penalty and not additional interest. If we win, the client gets his money back.\n\nI hope this helps. Let us know how your dispute with the IRS turns out.\n\nBest wishes.\n\nWilliam"
I'am doing a project and i would like to know if cystic fibrosis is a genetic diseases?,"Cystic fibrosis (CF), also called mucoviscidosis, is an autosomal recessive hereditary disease of the exocrine glands. It affects the lungs, sweat glands and the digestive system. It causes chronic respiratory and digestive problems.\n\nCystic fibrosis is exclusively heritable as both parents must carry the recessive genes for a child to acquire the disease. At the genetic level, cystic fibrosis is most often the result of an in-frame deletion of three base pairs in the DNA. Cystic fibrosis results from the production of an abnormal form of a protein called cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR). CFTR functions in transporting chloride ions across epithelial cells found in the lung and intestinal tract. In CF patients, CFTR does not function properly, causing accumulation of ions inside epithelial cells. Since water follows ions by osmosis, this results in water depletion and viscous mucus on the surface of alveoli. The most common CFTR protein abnormality is a mutation termed ΔF508, which is characterized by the deletion of the DNA basepair sequence at chromosome location 7q31.1 that codes for a single amino acid, phenylalanine."

what is Serialization in Java?Can anyone help me with an example?,"Hi,\nAs such I have never really been to Java. But the thing that you have asked is fairly technology independent. I will try to explain them in as much non-tech terms as possible.\n \nSerialization:\n Serialization is a process of saving state of an object in some format. State of an object means its current value which in turn comprises of the values of the members of the object. For example, if I have a class Student, having RollNo and Name as its members(properties), and an object of Student class 'Deobrat' is created with ROllNo=01 and Name=""Deobrat Singh"". Then serialization of the object Deobrat would mean, saving this object somewhere (either in memorystream or in a filestream or on a networkstream) in such a way that it can later be reconstructed to again form the same object.\nTo be a bit more elaborate, consider an example where I have to send an object across a network to some remote computer (something that we do in WebServices). Now, in this case, the object itself cannot be sent because the network doesn't recognise what an object is. It simply understands a stream of bytes and nothing else. Serialization allows us to convert this object into a stream of bytes which then could be sent across the network to the remote computer.\n \nDeserialization:\n Deserialization is exactly the reverse process of Serialization. It means, to convert the stream of bytes in order to reconstruct the original object (or object state to be more precise). In the Web Service example scenario taken above, the Service Request broker will simply extract the stream of bytes, Deserialize them to create the object and give it to the class that is supposed to process it.\n \nExternalization:\n Serialization is achieved in 2 ways.\nUsing the Serializable interface which tells the runtime(or JVM) that the class has only premitive types that are serializable by themselves so the runtime can go ahead and use it's own code to serialize any object of this class. \nOn the other hand, if you want to write a class that has complete control over the process of serialization & deserialization, you implement Externalizable interface. In this case, when an object of your class has to be serialized, the runtime will not do it by itself. Rather it will call a method writeExternal to serialize the object. You will have complete control over the stream and format of the data to serialize. While deserializing the object, again the runtime will call readExternal method on your class which is supposed to read the stream and reconstruct the object state.\nA word of caution:\n\n In most cases, it is sufficient to use the Serializable interface because you wont have to write code for the serialization process. But in certain cases where you have a very heavy class with a lot of properties which need not be sent to the other end, it is better to write your code using Externalizable interface, because, then you will have complete control over which properties need to be serialized and which need not be serialized. While deserializing, again, your class will know which are the properties that must have been serialized and accordingly, you can recreate the object state.\n\nIn general, if you want a custom (in most cases, partial) serialization/deserialization to happen, you use Externalization."

what are the best ways to restore credit?,"First: the ads that say ""we'll fix your credit!"" are LYING. You are the one who's going to have to do the job.\n\nFirst: get your credit report. Most states now have a law on the books that requires all of the credit reporting agencies to give you a credit report once a year. Check it over. Make sure that there are no *mistakes* on it - late payments that were not late, disputed accounts, etc. \n\nLate payments and charged-off accounts stay on for 7 years, bankruptcies for 10. Generally, lenders are looking for patterns of behavior rather than once-in-a-way problems. If you find something wrong (and it's likely, unfortunately), write a letter to the credit bureau, providing documentation that you're right. They have to respond in 30 days; if the creditor can't prove that the negative item is indeed true, it comes off your report.\n\nNow you're down to real debt. If you can't afford the payments, contact the lenders and negotiate reduced payments. They will prefer to be getting something rather than having to write off the debt. Once you can afford to pay everything, commit to paying off the worst (i.e., highest-interest) items first. They cost you the most money that isn't going toward paying off the debt. Once you've killed one, the money you were spending on that one can be applied to the next-worst debt, and so on. The amount you can pay any given creditor snowballs rapidly when you follow this pattern. You have to remember, though, that when the first one is paid off, you don't have ""more money"". You still need to be committing that to killing your debt.\n\nIf you're out of debt, but your credit is lousy, get a secured card, use it, and pay it off every month. This will do a lot for your credit rating. In addition, open a savings account, and make regular deposits. This shows you are saving money and have a resource to pay your bills."

what are the pros and conts of the patriot act?,"Many aspects of the Patriot Act are uncontested; in fact, Nadine Strossen of the ACLU has stated that she agrees with over 90% of the provisions of the Patriot Act.  It's only a few provisions that are hotly contested\n\nIt largely tries to unify communication among several departments and provide easier access for law enforcement officers.  Online information was difficult to obtain before 9/11; access to judges was slower and required more paperwork; and more hoops were required before action could be taken.\n\nThe Patriot Act doesn't remove the safeguards, but streamlines and simplifies them.  For the most part, the same sorts of safeguards are in place, just with different requirements that are less burdensome on government.\n\nMany provisions are loudly decried in public, but few people ever discuss specific provisions of the Patriot Act they disapprove of.  Most of it seems to be mass hysteria without any specific citation of violations.  When the biggest complaint is that someone may look at your library record, it doesn't seem to be THAT violative of privacy.\n\nI've included links to the Department of Justice's defense of the Act, as well as the ACLU's criticism.

Why is showing a female nipple not allowed but a male nipple is allowed?,"Your point is very logical. \n\nHowever, also keep in mind that television broadcast decency standards are fairly well-defined. \n\nEvery once in a while, the FCC decides it needs to enforce their powers by the means of a sanction or fines. Otherwise, if the FCC never enforced any rules, their granted powers would diminish over time until people believed the FCC lacked power. Since every government agency tries to keep as much power as possible there is probably political or institutional pressure for the FCC to enforce communications rules. This may not always result in equitable enforcement."

Who's got the best search engine?,"My vote goes to Google.\n\nMy answer is google for the following reasons:\n\nPros of Google:\n\nAs a seach engine, google has the best relevance and presents the results in a way that I find easy to decide what pages are best for me. 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 did the calendar start? Why 31, 30 and 28-29? Why 12 months?","Man has been tracking time for tens of thousands of years.  Beyond the daily cycle of the sun, what is there to use to track time?  The moon and the stars.\n\nIt takes the moon about 29 1/2 days to go around the Earth, about a month.  The word ""month"" is derived from the same root as the word ""moon.""\n\nThe Earth revolves around the Sun over the course of a year, but if you don't know that, it appears that the entire universe of stars revolve around the Earth and Sun.  It takes about 365 1/4 days for the stars to go back to where they started, and that makes a year.\n\nSo the moon revolves around the Earth about 12 times a year, and thus we have 12 months.\n\nBut actually it takes fewer than 360 days for the moon to go around the Earth 12 times.  The months had to be lengthened so that 12 months match one year.  (Other societies used lunar calendars, which kept the month based on the moon's cycle.)  30 days per month would still make the year too short, and 31 days per month would make the year too long.  Thus we have some months 30 days and others 31 (and one other).\n\nEven still, the length of the year doesn't exactly match the revolution of the Earth around the Sun, so we make adjustments.  Every four years, we add a day to February.\n\nAnd still it's not perfect, so every 400 years, we don't add that day to February.\n\nAs for why February starts with only 28 days is not known for sure.

"Why do people give gift cards as presents, when the receipients would most likely rather get cash?","I don't give people cash because I assume they would do exactly what I would do when I get cash, which is stick it in my wallet and use it to pay for mundane things like gas and groceries and stuff... and then before I know it it's gone and it's like I never even got a gift...   Giving them a gift card to a store that you know carries things that they like (i.e. best buy for electronics/media lovers, or Victoria's Secret or The Body Shop for the girly girl in your life) ensures (okay, maybe not ensures, but increases the chances at least) that this person that you care about is going to get a nice little splurge that they might not have given themselves just becase they had a few extra bucks in their wallet."

What's the best sleeping aid?,"Exercise could help, but don't do it later in the evening.  It will release endorphins that will keep you up.  Exercising in the morning or afternoon should do the trick.  If the above doesn't work, take some nyquil.  I had two different prescription medications as sleep aids that didn't work the way they should and gave me nightmares or left me foggy the next day, but the cheap old generic nightime cold/flu medicine similar to nyquil knocked me out like a light and didn't leave me feeling sleepy the next day.  If it's a chronic case of sleeplessness, perhaps you should make a visit to your doctor.  Don't use anything for extended periods of time to help you sleep, it can become a habit and those aids will eventually become less effective."

What are some of the particles in the nucleus of an atom other than the proton and neutron?,"Protons and neutrons are the primary constituents of atomic nuclei, but these bits of matter can be further divided into quarks.  Quark come in six types, or ""flavors:"" up, down, strange, charm, top and bottom (or, if you prefer, truth and beauty.) Quarks are never observed by themselves, but are instead found in groups of two (mesons) or three (baryons). Nuclear particles are baryons -- neutrons are composed of two down quarks and an up quark (ddu), while protons are two up quarks and a down quark (uud).  The other four types of quarks are less stable, and tend to be observed only as components of high-energy, short-lived particles inside supercolliders, bubble chambers, and the like.\n\nProtons and neutrons are thus the only directly observable particles within the nucleus.  However, they are bound together by another type of particle, not directly detectable that appropriately enough is known as a gluon.  Gluons, like photons, are force-carrier particles, and they are the intermediary for the transmission of the weak nuclear force, which binds the positively charged protons and electrically neutral neutrons."

Do I have to have a religion?,"If you don't believe you don't believe.  It is OK.  Why should you believe in somehting of which there is no proof?  \n\nIn my personal opinion, there are only three reasons people become religious:\n\n1)  They are fearful.  Fearful of death, fearful of not knowing the purpose of their existence, fearful of losing everything that they value in this life (which you will, gauranteed).  Fear is a powerful motivator and when someone offers you a way to manage that fear through a belief system it can be tempting to accept.  There is no need to resort to philosophy, science or psyhcology.  There is no need to accept that there are rational and scientific explanations that we as humans simply don't know yet.   Just believe that someone's making it all right in the end and you're all set.\n\n2) They are seeking a path to redemption for past sins.  They are having difficulty coping with the consequences of some bad action they have taken in thier life, and or are trying to control some compulsive behavior that has caused hardship in their life.  Either they were in prison, got caught with a prostitue, or drank themselves out of job and their family, or simply told a horrible lie that they feel guilty about.  Religion offers instant redemption and rituals to help you ease your mind through repentance.  \n\n3)  They have a strong natural desire for community and companionship.  Having someplace to go every Sunday with likeminded people or having rituals to follow when someone dies, or having a language or framework to use when communicating your values with others can be very comforting.  If your family already subscribes to these beliefs you even may feel pressure to accept things that your logical mind tells you are impossible and&#92;or unlikely.\n\nYou can deal with these three situations through patience, meditation, compassion, seeking help from others, and community activism, or you can choose to believe in supernatural beings and mythology.  My personal opinion is that there is no easy way out of any problem so that when a christian says I can instantly have my sins forgiven or a Scientologist tells me that body thetans are causing my suffering, or some guru tells me that my Shakras just need alignments, I usually take a pass."

what is the concept of global warming?,"Global warming has two main applications. The first is that there are certain gases that trap heat in the atmosphere, warming planets. This is known to take place on Venus, Earth, and the gas giants. Earth is the hospitable place that it is because of global warming.\n\nThis takes place because of greenhouse gases, which allow radiation from the sun to pass through the atmosphere and warm the surface of the earth. The surface then re-radiates this energy back towards space in the infrared spectrum. This energy would escape and our planet would be as cold as the moon, were it not for the greenhouse gases (mainly CO2, ozone, methane, and water vapor). They absorb the infrared energy and radiate it back to earth, increasing the overall amount of radiation hitting the earth's surface, keeping it warm day and night.\n\nThat this takes place is clear and indisputable. There is simply too little energy coming from the sun to account for our planet's temperature. The controversial point is when global warming is applied to the current rise in average global temperature that has taken place over the past 50 so years. Most scientists believe that warming of the planet is due to increases in greenhouse gases, mainly CO2, mainly due to human activities on earth."

what is vasectomy?,"How common is vasectomy?\nVasectomy is used as a means of contraception in many parts of the world. A total of about 50 million men have had a vasectomy--a number that corresponds to roughly 5 percent of all married couples of reproductive age. In comparison, about 15 percent of couples rely on female sterilization for birth control.\n\nApproximately half a million vasectomies are performed in the United States each year. About one out of six men over age 35 has been vasectomized. The prevalence of men undergoing the procedure increases with higher levels of education and income. Among married couples in the United States, only female sterilization and oral contraception are relied upon more often for family planning.\n\nHow is vasectomy done?\nIn the conventional approach, a physician makes one or two small incisions, or cuts, in the skin of the scrotum, which has been numbed with a local anesthetic. The vas is cut, and a small piece may be removed. Next, the doctor ties the cut ends and sews up the scrotal incision. The entire procedure is then repeated on the other side.\n\nRelated Links on MedicineNet.com \n\nPage 2 of this Article \nRelated Medical Procedures and Tests\nThe Doctor's Response\nInformation on this web site is provided for informational purposes only and is not a substitute for professional medical advice.

Vasectomy is a popular method of birth control: in 1983, figures showed that approximately 10 million men had been sterilized in the U.S. since 1969. Excision of the vas deferens is a minor surgical procedure that can be performed in a physician's office in less than half an hour. A small incision is made on one side of the scrotum (the external sac housing the testes) and the vas deferens is located, cut, and the ends tied off. The incision is closed and the procedure is repeated on the other side. After surgery, it is necessary to wait until a negative sperm count is obtained before discarding other means of contraception, because viable sperm cells are retained in the seminal vesicles (the pair of storage pouches where sperm is mixed with other components of semen) and along the various sperm ducts. In addition it is usually advised that the patient be reexamined after a year, because the severed ends of the vas deferens occasionally reknit. Sterility resulting from vasectomy is considered to be permanent, and attempts at surgically reversing vasectomy, called vasovasotomy, have had limited success. In India, where the government is trying to stem the tide of overpopulation, money is paid to men who submit to voluntary vasectomy. Efforts to overcome the irreversibility of vasectomy have also led to experimentation with the implantation of faucetlike devices that can be made to open or close the sperm duct in a simple operation. Such devices have functioned successfully in animals but are still considered experimental in humans because of their unproved reversibility, high cost, and the degree of surgical skill needed to implant them. Another option suggested to those undergoing vasectomy is to preserve their fertility by depositing semen in sperm banks. Such semen samples are frozen in liquid nitrogen below −300°F (−185°F) and are considered to be viable for an indefinite period. However, there is considerable debate over the scientif"

Satan is called the temter, because he temts people to sin.  he does this becaus he does not want to suffer alone.  and God allows this, so that we may prove our faith.  but God also puts a collor on Satan, in that Satan is cannot tempt us more than we can bare (handle).  this also makes that whole statement ""the devil made me do it"" a complete and udder lie.  from now unto our death we will always have a choice: follow God or give into the temtations that Satan has placed before us and join him in eternal damnation."

What is 'Divine Proportion'?,"The divine proportion is also called the golden mean or abbreviated by the greek letter phi. The actual value is (1 + root(5))/2 or about 1.618 (the number actually never ends and is irrational, because root(5) is irrational).\n\nAs an application, say we have a line of length 1. If you had another line of length 1.618, the ratio between the two would essentially be the golden mean.\n\nThis ratio occurs almost everywhere in nature. Shells form golden spirals, the ratio from tail to dorsal fin and dorsal fin to head on a dolphin is about the golden mean, same for foot to waist and waist to head in humans. So on and so on. It also has been a dominant design principle for much of civilization.

"If a woodchuck were to actually chuck wood, what is the quantity of the wood that would be chucked?","I despise those who don't take your question seriously. I bit my thumb at them. Fie.\n\nThe answer depends on what you mean the woodchuck, a common name for groundhogs and woodpeckers. If you mean groundhogs, then the answer is unfortunately quite a small amount of wood. My guess is probably two logs an hour. Small logs.\n\nAccording to the prominent wikipedia.org: ""The name woodchuck has nothing etymologically to do with wood. It stems from an Algonquian name for the animal (possibly Narraganset), wuchak. This confusion led to the common tongue twister, 'How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood? — A woodchuck would chuck all the wood he could chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood.'"""
Could planets exist in stable orbits around binary stars?,"That might depend on wether the binary stars are very close (and spinning about each other) such that they ""look"" almost like a simple center of gravity relative to a planet far enough away to not be affected by lets say bumps in the gravity field.  Einstein told us that gravity distorts space and planets therefore merely follow the curved space layed out for them.  The earth senses the gravitational pull of both the sun  and say Jupiter but only the sun has a major affect because of proximity and mass.  The short answer to your question is that planets can exist in stable (though irregular) orbits around binary stars depending on the curvature of space in its orbit.  Hope that helps a little."

What is the best money making products to sell on ebay?,"The product is only a portion of the battle.  You still have to to think about your ability to sell.  Then what price it will cost to obtain a certain product.  Its alot of pulling and tugging to make a profit on Ebay.  But, products come and go all the time.  When fads hit, it also hits Ebay.  When the fads are gone, those numbers also dwindle on Ebay.  The other half is your ability to sell the product.  I have seen so many people sell the product the wrong way, that even if it was priced low enough, nobody would bid.  So, you have to figure out what drives customers to bid, regardless of the product.  Your best bet is creating a product and selling it on Ebay.  I have heard people selling things on Ebay that they made.  I heard someone making 200 a day selling hand made cloaks.  But, thats them, you have to find your own market.  Um, last part about ebay is reselling a product.  If you see something cheap enough to make a profit off of, then by all means buy it.  See, if you buy something for $100 and sell it for $105, you only made $5 buxx.  And after Ebay fees, you make ""jack.""  But, if you can find a product for $12 dollars and sell it for $25, then you make a better profit.  Now its all up to you to sell as much as you can.  See?  So, small stuff can be worthwhile some times.  I used to do okay selling 99 cent coins.  Not bad for free stuff.  I would sell about 100 of them a week.  Thats not bad for 3 hours worth of work.  But, its not enough to live off of, so I sell other things as well.  So, to recap, its the product (try to create one yourself if you have to), the price you can get it for (so you dont sell the same product for more then everybody else), and your ability to sell.  Those three factors, fine tuned will help you get started."
why was hindi declared as national language of india?,"First of all Hindi is not our (India's) single national language. There exists no such thing in our constitution. Languages in our constitution is devided into two categories. Namely Official languages (Central administrative)& Scheduled list of languages for official use.\n\nOfficial languages are Hindi and English\n\nAnother 22 regional languages for official use.\n\nOnly around 40% of Indians speak Hindi as mother tounge but nearly 70% can understand Hindi. And that's hardly a criteria for ""Naional Language""."
What percentage of the U.S. male population is gay?,"Main problem in gathering statistics on gays is that many people who are homosexual do not want to admit, even to an anonymous interviewer.  This is particularly true of people in heterosexual marriages.  Probably Kinsey's 10% figure was skewed higher by some sampling problems.  The low-end figures are likely wrong due to people not being honest when surveyed.  An article in the gay press today said the British government estimated about 6% of its population was gay."

Its a young team too."
how season ocurr?/what factors affecting them?,"The above is an incorrect answer. Seasons do not occur because of the distance of the earth to the sun. In fact, during winter, the earth is physically closer to the sun and during the summer, it is furthest.\n\nTilt is key. Its important that not only is there a tilt on the earth, but the direction of that tilt is not altered during the rotation of the earth around the sun.\n\nThe Northern hemisphere is always tilting away during the winter, and towards the sun during the summer. The tilt of the earth is 23 degrees. So lets say you're at 45 degrees lattitude. During the summer, the sun will rise to 45+23 (68) degrees because the tilt is towards it, and in winter, the sun only goes to 45-23 (22) degrees. There is a big difference between the sun going up 22 degrees and the sun going to 68 degrees.\n\nWhen the sun goes to 68 degrees, it is more overhead, and the earth therefore receives more of its rays. During winter, light rays are striking obliquely, and hence do not warm the earth as much.\n\nThis is why there are less variations of seasons around the equator, where the sun is almost always directly overhead all the time.\n\nAnd this is why seasons are reversed on the southern hemisphere. When the northern hemisphere tilts towards the sun, the south is tilting away."

Can the cd-rw drive in my laptop play dvd's?,"DVD is a different format with respect to CD RW. If your hardware supports only CDs for reading and burning, then there's no possibility of it reading the DVD. As you mentioned that you have a laptop, I guess it should be a DVD combo, i.e. DVD read only and CD Read/Write support, because that is the standard in laptops. I rarely have known a laptop model which has a CDRW drive, excepting if it is older than 2 years. You can check the DVD logo on the side of your drive. \n\nIn case it is a cdrw and you need to play a dvd, you need a computer with dvd drive on your network neibourhood. Just share the DVD drive on that computer, and you can access the DVD drive as your own drive. Best of luck on the experiment."

"Why is snow depicted in a crib, when there is no sow fall in bethlehem?","Because Christ was not born on ""Christmas"" December 25. You are correct in the statement about snowfall in Bethleham. Winter in Bethlehem is a cold and rainy season, and a time when shepherds would not spend the nights outside with their flock. (Sheep have wool to keep them warm) Christ was likely born closer to springtime, as the shepherds WERE out with their flock overnight. The date for Christmas was actually stolen from Pagan Sun-worshipers and instituted as the birth of Jesus by emperor Constatine to try to unite his kingdom. Research it a little and you will find that even some of the clergy acknowledge this fact. Yet they still perpetuate the lie. \n\nSanta? Stolen from festivals in Holland.\nBesides Jesus never told his deciples to celebrate his birth. Aren't Christians supposed to be Christlike? In the Bible, the only meention of a birthday celebration during Jesus' life was of a Roman ruler that ended with John the Baptizer having his head cut off and served on a platter. You think Jesus likes Birthdays?"

"MY SISTER HATES ME AND I MIGHT MOVE UP TO HER GRADE, SHOULD I BE WORRIED?","Your sister doesn't hate you, you probably just irritate the crap out of her, which is entirely natural and common.

If she pokes at you and causes problems, tell someone, don't do it back, and go back to ignoring her and going on with life.

"Could inteligent life have evolved from a different animal group, such as reptiles, birds or even insects?","The fact that female mammals produce milk for their young means that at birth a mammal can have a relatively large brain, although they are relatively helpless.  Other animals have to be able to at least get around.\n\nBrains don't grow as much as other parts of the body, which is why babies seem to have large heads.\n\nThe obvious counter-example is birds, where the young are stuck in the nest and depend on their parents for food.  However, flight puts a limit on how heavy a bird can be, and so how heavy its brain can be.  But flightless birds are a possible candidate.\n\nAmphibians and reptiles are cold-blooded, which seems as though it would rule out our sort of intelligence.  On the other hand, perhaps an intelligent crocodile would think of slowing down when the temperature drops much as we think of sleep.  Remember that a large brain would mean a large egg (and you have to fit the rest of the body inside the egg as well)."

What's the basis for Daylight Savings Time?,"Benjamin Franklin  was among the first Americans to discuss the idea of Daylight Saving Time. In fact, he proposed the idea while serving as U.S. minister to France as a way of conserving the cost of lighting for shops. The purpose has been to essentially utilize more of the daylight hours in spring and summer for daytime activities. Simply put, the Sun is up longer in the sky (rises earlier and sets later) in summer. Clocks and common mechanical timepieces keep what's called civil time, which roughly corresponds to the passage of a fictitious ""average"" Sun through our sky. This is necessary since the Sun does not rise and set on a regular basis, but changes by as much as 15 minutes throughout the course of the year.\n\nDaylight Saving Time was generally adopted by countries around World War I, but President Wilson repealed the United States' mandatory daylight savings law on March 31, 1918. During World War II, Daylight Savings Time was reestablished by law on a year-round basis, and later seen as a fuel saving measure during the Arab Oil Embargo crisis of 1973-74. In late 1974, standard time was brought back. During World War II, the U.S. and some other countries implemented ""double"" daylight savings time consisting of a two hour shift."
How to improve on premature ejaculation?,"A technique known as the ""PC Squeeze"" can help control premature ejaculation. This involves flexing the PC muscle repeatedly. You can find your PC muscle by stopping the flow of urine. The muscle that is used to stop the flow of urine (located between the scrotum and butthole) is also the muscle that controls ejaculation. Doing a PC workout each day can help strengthen the muscle. It recommended that you start easy: 3 sets of 15 squeezes followed by one long squeeze a the end. After a few weeks of this, the sets and reps can be increased to the point of fatigue."

how are the mets gonna do in 2006?,"although it's no guarantee, it looks like the mets have a great shot at winning the nl east in 2006.\n\nthe 2005 standings:\n\natlanta: 90-72\nphilly: 88-74\nmets: 83-79\nflorida: 83-79\nwash: 81-81\n\nnow, washington performed well above what was expected of them, as they gave up 30 more runs than they scored. florida has traded all of their talent for prospects. therefore, those 2 teams are likely not going to win the division.\n\natlanta lost their leadoff batter and sparkplug rafael furcal and replaced him with edgar renteria, who was great two years ago but does not provide the same offensive or defensive weapons that furcal does. atlanta also got a monster year out of andruw jones, who likely will not repeat that performance. also, the braves lost their closer, kyle farnsworth, to the yankees and will likely go with chris reitsma, who was good but not great last year in limited duty. however, the young players on the braves roster such as jeff francoeur, adam laroche, and ryan langerhans should develop further. also, a full season of former mvp chipper jones would be helpful. that leaves the braves with a good chance to win 90 games again. \n\nthe phillies traded jim thome to the white sox for aaron rowand, which improves their team even though i feel they should have gotten more for thome. with a shot at first base for a full season, ryan howard should put up some incredible numbers. chase utley, their 2nd baseman, should also leap to stardom this year. however, the phillies other big star, bobby abreu, wants to be traded, and that most likely means that the phils will not get full value for him. lastly, they lost their elite closer, billy wagner, to the mets. tom gordon, though he's old, should be a serviceable replacement, but will not be as lights-out as wagner. unless brett myers becomes consistent and shows he can be an ace, the phillies pitching staff is comprised basically of a #2 starter, 3 #3 starters and a #4. many teams would be happy with that pitching staff, but it doesn't win the division for you.\n\nthat leaves the mets. the mets record last year was worse than it should have been, as they scored many more runs than they gave up. trading for carlos delgado to replace the worst 1b positional output in the majors will be a big boost. signing wagner to close instead of the shaky braden looper will help a lot as well, as looper blew 8 of 36 save chances. add in the continued development of david wright, who exploded at the end of last season, and jose reyes, as well as a bounceback year for center fielder carlos beltran, and the mets look very good up and down. paul lo duca should provide similar numbers to last year's fading mike piazza, but should also stay healthy, as the mets backup, ramon castro, is solid and should play every fourth game or so. the mike cameron-xavier nady trade made a lot of people say ""huh?"", but it's actually good for the mets, as victor diaz has proven himself worthy of a shot to play in right field every day. if jae seo gets a chance to start for the full season and performs like he did at the end of last season, he will be a solid #2 pitcher. problems could include the aging of tom glavine and steve trachsel, the inconsistency of kris benson, and the lack of bullpen depth. i'm not convinced that uber-GM omar minaya won't get his team more help in the bullpen, with rumors abound that the mets wish to sign danys baez, the devil rays all-star closer, to set up for wagner.\n\nall in all, this mets team could win 100 games and take the nl east easily."

What do the eagles need to improve on in the offseason?,"The Eagles need to find a consistent WR in the draft. Perhaps Sinorice Moss, the younger brother of Santana Moss would help. Their defense also needs some help. I don't know what happened to them, but next year they shouldn't be all that bad. As for McNabb, I'm sick of all this pressure being thrown on him by both Owens and the media. As long as he stays healthy, the Eagles could be a threat--provided Andy Reid keeps the offense balanced. As for Owens, good luck finding a new team."

the main substrate for the secretion of ammonia in the kidney?,"The Urea (or the Krebs-Hensliet) cycle outlines the mechanism by which ammonia is finally produced in the final reaction (involving Arginine, if I am right)\n\nAmmonia excretion can also be regarded as excretion of Nitrogen from different intermediates in the body. All of these N containing intermediates converge into the TCA cycle from where they become amino acids through enzymes known as deaminases or transminases. These amino acids converge to a common amino acid (alanine in humans, if i recollect well) which then travels to Kidney and initiates the UREA cycle to finally result in the production of Ammonia"

what is the best way to stop smoking?? i have smoked for 20 years & need to stop...?,"I myself am trying to quit, as of the day after Christmas. You'd think seeing my mom die from lung cancer when I was 29 years old would have been motivation enough. It is sooo hard, especially around your ""triggers"". For me, it's at home after work. My dad told me when he quit he would go for a walk or take a drink of water. I have tried them as well. I have not had luck with the patch nor the gum. I am trying cold turkey again. I have a straw I ""inhale"" at home .. just a straw. It seems to be working. Then I think about how gross it is and why I don't want to do it anymore. There's a great commercial out there that shows a dr saying he doesn't think he can operate and then a smoker saying I dont' think I can quit.\nI think the clincher for me is that my best friends kids are 13 and 14 and are both smoking. I was a little bit younger than that so I am trying to be a good example to them. I have to quit. \nI wish you success in the new year to quit smoking."

did tookie get a fair deal?,"Yes.  He murdered four people in cold blood.  Volumes of evidence were presented proving his guilt.  Even the 9th Federal Circuit Court of Appeals, proven to be the most liberal, anti-death-penalty court in the nation, could not find sufficient cause to nullify the verdict.  He received his fair trial, his fair appeals process.  He continuously professed his innocence to delay (for nearly 30 years) his sentence, nothing more.  He capitalized on the fact that American society, with it's EXTREMELY short attention span, would forget the horrific crimes he committed.  He gambled on the possibility that we would forget what he did, become desensitized to it, and dismiss the jury's decision overly harsh.  Some arguing in his defense tried to portray the jury as a bunch of racist white rich folks intent on ""murdering another innocent black man"" (it wasn't all-white, check the record).  Fortunately, all of the right people saw through his charade, and ended his shennanigans, permanently."

"Which should i join, the Navy or the Air Force?","Being a Navy wife for 30 years, I would say the Air Force. The brances go by reading levels. Air Force, Navy, Marine, Army are the levels. Then you want the pay. Same levels. Education, Medical, Dental is offered by all branches no difference. You want to get a job that pays good and one that advancement is in. It is all about time in and money. When the recuritor tells you you will be getting your Medical ""Free"" that used to make me laugh, because it comes out of your taxes you are paying for it. Not the president. No there is no money transpired, but you are still paying for it. If you want to go into the service, go to college first, go in as an officer not a civilian. Money money money.  That is what you want to get. Your rate and rank has to go up.You will always be tested to achive a better rate. Now, it is a big commetment.  You are going to get married to the service.  There is no way out until your tour is up and then they ask you if you want to stay in.  Will you be educated enough from the military to go out into the world and get a good paying job?  Suppose you fall in love and get married, you cannot live on base unless you are a certain rate. Base living is very nice, but you are not making a lot of money. So now you have to live off base.  Rent is high. So no marriage until your first tour is up get your education and your money.  Better still, go to college before you go into any branch of the service. \nPlease go to college first."

"What is Python 1.5, and can i delete it from my computer?","Python is a computer language, much like Basic or C or Cobol is a language.  It's an interpretive language, and so often when you install other software, Python is installed with it.\n\nPerhaps some program that you installed also installed Python.  Several BitTorrent programs were written in Python.  It's an open source language, so consider what programs you have installed recently.  \n\nCan you delete it?  Most likely.  But there's a good chance that something won't run - probably just a software package that you picked up along the way.  But if something stops running, you can always re-install Python.\n\nSee http://www.python.org"
What are good sound reasons for getting a divorce?,"Watch for the red flags prior to marriage.  But when in love, we often miss the red flags, so if that happens, here are what I consider serious and justifiable grounds:\n\nAdultery -- many people can't move past this.  It's a physical betrayal, but also tears at you emotionally.  I personally think it's one of the most difficult ones to resolve.\n\nAbuse -- physical or verbal.  Verbal often gets overlooked, but it's namecalling, screaming at you rather than holding a normal conversation, talked down to, and did I mention yelling and screaming?  If you ask the person a normal question, like ""do you have any change for the toll?"" and they start screaming that ""all you do is harp about money,"" you've got a problem.  Physical is obvious, but don't overlook punching walls, breaking dishes, etc.  Watch out for signs of roughness or  meanness to your children and pets too.\n\nControl Freaks:  This is also a form of abuse, but these men want to know your every move, monitor your phone calls, read your email and voice mails, won't let you go to the mall alone, etc.  Insist that if you get a new hairdo or buy a new dress, it must be because you're cheating with someone.  This is usually disguised as jealousy which women may think lattering -- at first.  Don't be fooled.  Control freaks also don't want you to hold a job or have any money of your own.  You must beg for an ""allowance.""\n\nFinancial:  There are a lot of men who live off women.  They have jobs when you meet them.  Then, something happens, and it's always the company or bosses fault.  They tell you they're out job hunting, but nothing is happening.  Next comes laying around on the couch all day, sleeping, watching tv or guzzling beer.  Weeks turn into months and it's just you working.  Or, the person flits from job to job and can't hold a job.  This man will plunge you right into financial ruin and guess what -- you can't get them out of the house all that easy, if it happens to be your house and not a joint home.  Keep an eye out that they don't dip into your wallet.  A dollar or two missing, here and there, usually becomes much more.  You'll get behind on bills, your credit will suffer.  Don't stand for this.\n\nAddictive behavior:  Drugs, alchoholism, gambling.  Will cause you nothing but stress, pain and financial hardship.  Don't try to be the hero and ""help"" the person out of despair.  Unless you are rich enough to get them into very good rehab, like the movie stars do, it probably won't work.  Addicts can only be helped if they want to be and you'll be surprised how many enjoy the behavior and have no desire to give it up.  I've seen men go to AA or a counseling session, come right out and stop at a bar.  It is almost a joke with them.  You may keep gamblers out of casinos, but they'll spend a whole paycheck on lottery tickets or the football pool.\n\nIllegal behavior:  Selling drugs, stealing, pulls insurance scams, (or any scams), etc., RUN.  He'll eventually get caught and you might get implicated too!  Do you want his record to become yours?\n\nGood luck."

when your boyfriend and you don't talk much yet how do you figure out how he feels about you.?,"I'm generally a quiet person, and I was very quiet around my now-girlfriend when I first met her. I think that likely drove her crazy... because she couldn't tell how I felt about her. After we hooked up and started seeing each other more often, my feelings just came through. I couldn't hold them to myself. There was a need to share them with her that I just couldn't imagine keeping inside.\n\nBut that's me - and not everyone is the same. Some people are emotionally sheltered and prefer to keep their feelings hidden away. Body language, gestures, and general mood and disposition toward you can give you clues as to how your significant other really feels. The question you need to ask, when you're finding yourself actively looking for attention like this, is whether or not you can be happy in the long term under these circumstances.\n\nPeople are tough to change, and if this is something you need, and your significant other is having a hard time dealing with that... you may need to re-evaluate your situation, or have a long and frank discussion with them regarding this."

"Over hundreds of years, the glass in glass windows sinks down to the bottem.  So is glass a liquid or a solid?","This is pretty much a question of the definition you are using.\n\nIn a strict definition, conventional solids have a crystalline structure. Under this definition, glass is a supercooled, highly viscous liquid rather than a conventional (crystalline) solid. \n\nIn many ways, glass acts like a solid. Using that behaviour as a criterion, glass is a solid."
"where did the phrase ""this too shall pass"" originate?","""This too shall pass"" is the title of a poem by Helen Steiner Rice. \n\nThe almost identical phrase: ""And this, too, shall pass away"" has been traced to an Abraham Lincoln speech. \n\nIt could just be a deliberate reference to the Bible: ""Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away."" (Matthew 24:35 and elsewhere). \n\nApparently it was old Persian proverb and a Hebrew parable: \n\n... written three Hebrew letters on the gold band: gimel, zayin, yud, which began the words ""Gam zeh ya'avor"" -- ""This too shall pass."""
"Has Anyone ever read the book ""To Kill a Mockingbird?""?","Yes.\n\nTo Kill a Mockingbird is a 1960 novel by Harper Lee, which won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction in 1961. It was made into an Academy Award-winning motion picture starring Gregory Peck by director Robert Mulligan in 1962. A coming-of-age story, it is told from the point of view of Jean Louise ""Scout"" Finch, the young daughter of Atticus Finch, an educated lawyer in Maycomb, Alabama, a small town in the deep South of the United States. She is accompanied by her brother Jem and their mutual friend Dill.\n\nTruman Capote was a lifelong friend of childhood neighbor Lee, and allegedly was the inspiration for Dill's character in her best-seller. Capote frequently implied that he himself had written a considerable portion of her novel, and some have said he ghosted the entire novel. At least one person—Pearl Kazin Bell, an editor at Harper's— has gone on record as believing his assertions were true.\n\nThe title of the book is taken from Atticus's advice to his children about firing their air rifles at birds: ""Shoot all the blue jays you want, if you can hit 'em, but remember it's a sin to kill a mockingbird"". The blue jay is a very common bird, and is often perceived as a bully and a pest, whereas mockingbirds do nothing but ""sing their hearts out for us"". Metaphorically, several of the book's characters can be seen as ""mockingbirds"", attacked despite doing nothing but good. The mockingbird represents innocence, and to kill one is to metaphorically kill innocence. Note that the protagonists are also named after birds: Tom Robinson and the Finch family. However, ""Finch"" was also Lee's mother's maiden name.\n\nHarper Lee stated, ""To get the ideas for the book I used recent events in my time like the Scottsboro Trials."" (Harper Lee, Book Review, 1964)\n\nThe events of this book's publication and the following film are also subjects of the 2005 film Capote starring Phillip Seymour Hoffman as Truman Capote and Catherine Keener as Harper Lee. It is also an excellent film and will likely be considered in one category or another for an Academy Award."
What is the meaning of Immanuel?,"Immanuel means ""God with us.""  It was used in the Biblical prophets to predict the coming of Jesus (Isaiah 7 and 8) and is referred to in Matthew 1, when the angel Gabrial announces the birth of Jesus to Joseph.  Here's an excerpt from Matthew:\n\nThis is how the birth of Jesus Christ came about: His mother Mary was pledged to be married to Joseph, but before they came together, she was found to be with child through the Holy Spirit. Because Joseph her husband was a righteous man and did not want to expose her to public disgrace, he had in mind to divorce her quietly. \n\n    But after he had considered this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, ""Joseph son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife, because what is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus,[c] because he will save his people from their sins."" \n\n    All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had said through the prophet: ""The virgin will be with child and will give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel""[d]—which means, ""God with us."" \n\n    When Joseph woke up, he did what the angel of the Lord had commanded him and took Mary home as his wife. But he had no union with her until she gave birth to a son. And he gave him the name Jesus."
"Do you generally care about other people, or simply live life for yourself?","Relationships with others enrich one's own life.  While living for one's self can be rewarding in a more immediate sense, helping others give a sense of gratification that can't be matched by egoistic tendencies."

What are best general purpose binoculars for astronomy?,"It depends.  Just about any binoculars provide good view.  Make certain you stay away from very strong magnifications, otherwise you will need a tripod to keep them steady and may get dizzy without it.  The larger magnifications also limit your field of view.  \n\nI have some 8x42 Nikons that are great.  \n\nJust in case you are not aware:  the first number given in the binocular is the magnification.  Stick with 7 or 8.  The 10s you will need the stabilization electronics or a mono/tripod.  \n\nThe second number provides information on how much light comes through the lens.  \n\nFor example...if you were to compare the same brand and model with the exception of the number difference: 8x25 vs 8x42:  \n\nThe 8x25 will provide the same size image but the 8x42 will provide a brighter image.   If you are thinking about purchasing online...before you do find a camera store or a sporting goods store to see how they feel and get a better feel for what you really want.  Hope that helps...happy star viewing!\n\nAlso another possible source for help would be to see if there is a local star party group in your area.  Drop by one night; it can be fun to meet some experienced viewers with telescopes already setup as well as some people who have the really large expensive scopes which you may not be able to afford."

"Is there anything one can do to ""spice"" up what appears to be a dull relationship (marriage)?","Here's a hint:  Men like women to show initiative with romance and eroticsm--too often in relationships it's considered the ""man's job"" to get things moving! This will sound corny, but give it a shot:  First, if you've got kids, send them to the grandparents for the night in advance without him knowing (say on a Friday).  Next, turn off all the lights in the house and place scented candles in the bedroom and run a hot bubble bath just before he normally arives home.  Have some wine and two wine glasses at the ready on the coffee table, and rose petals on the floor leading a trail to the bedroom--or whereever you're most memorable encounter that you can remember occurred.  Personally, I like David Sanborn or some other smooth jazz playing in the background. Music is important to setting the mood, and if you've got cable or a dish, you can tune it to the music of your choice. Just before he gets home, slip into a nice satin & lace nightie and cover it with a heavy robe.  When he gets to the door, be there waiting to flash him and let him know what you've got in store for the evening.  Not in a crude way, mind you.  Most importantly, take your time...don't rush.  The anticipation of that which is to come will be as intense as the act itself.  Hope that helps!\nPeace,\nJayZ"

"What's it like, being in a relationship?","Not to complicate things or anything but it really depends on how each persons acts within a relationship.  As long as each person asks like themselves and is not trying to put on an act to ipress the other person it can be great.  Seeing that each one of you accept one another for who you are. \n  On the other side if you feel like you have to be soembody you are not simply to get the other person to like you then the relationship is doomed to fail, because you will eventually get tired of not being yourself.  The relationship will be horrible.\n  Being in a relationship can be the greatest thing ever. All you have to do is comunicate and be yourself and you will be happy"
How are materials exchanged through capillaries?,"Capillaries are thin-walled blood vessels in which gas exchange occurs. In the capillary, the wall is only one cell layer thick. Capillaries are concentrated into capillary beds. Some capillaries have small pores between the cells of the capillary wall, allowing materials to flow in and out of capillaries as well as the passage of white blood cells. Nutrients, wastes, and hormones are exchanged across the thin walls of capillaries. Capillaries are microscopic in size, although blushing is one manifestation of blood flow into capillaries. Control of blood flow into capillary beds is done by nerve-controlled sphincters. \n\n\nChanges in blood pressure, velocity, and the area of the arteries, capillaries, and veins of the circulatory system. Image from Purves et al., Life: The Science of Biology, 4th Edition, by Sinauer Associates (www.sinauer.com) and WH Freeman (www.whfreeman.com), used with permission.\n\nThe circulatory system functions in the delivery of oxygen, nutrient molecules, and hormones and the removal of carbon dioxide, ammonia and other metabolic wastes. Capillaries are the points of exchange between the blood and surrounding tissues. Materials cross in and out of the capillaries by passing through or between the cells that line the capillary."

"As a Freshmen starting college, is it better to go away for school or stay home in this day and age?",It is my personal opionion and personal observation that people who separate themselves from their parents at an early age do better in the long run.  \n\nPeople who stayed home never grew up emotionally or became financially independant. Parents tend to enable kids staying kids for as long as personal.\n\nI am being honest about this knowing my kids will be ready to leave home soon enough and I will not want to see them go.

However, astral bodies that collide with the earth also carry with them certain chemicals, so the source of berilium on this planet can also be attributed to some degree to those, as well.  \nhere's a neat factoid for ye..  protein strains that are slammed into the earth at those fantastic speeds known to meteors, upon impact, form amino acids...  if i can recall that episode of NOVA i saw on m'local PBS station correctly.  ;)"

What's your favorite programming language?,"Well, I just fell in love with Ruby, when I began to learn it a week ago... I've been programming for 15 years and had been seriously hoping to make my own language one of these days, because all the languages I was used to had severe limitations at every turn.  I don't know how to explain all the reasons why I hate conventional languages, but let it suffice to say that Ruby lets you do virtually anything you want to do; it supports a wide variety of programming styles, and can do many things that are difficult or impossible in other languages, such as metaprogramming (the possibilities with this seem endless), arbitrarily changing existing classes (including built-in classes), coroutines (although you'll have to implement them yourself, since Ruby only has continuations built in), lightweight (non-OS) threads, closures, multiple inheritance (well, not exactly, but Ruby's ""mixins"" are just as good), ""freezing"" objects, and on and on.\n\nAlso, after reading through the online book Programming Ruby, I got the feeling that the designer and developer (""Matz"") really knew what he was doing.  The parts of the language fit together well and on the whole, the language is well rounded, with a feature for everyone.\n\nFinally, Ruby is easy to play with, because\n(1) you don't have do define a class and a method and write a ton of import/include/using statements (as in Java/C#/C++) -- code at the top level automatically runs (in a hidden method called ""main"", I think.)\n(2) you get the interactive interpreter called IRB, with which you can type statements and get immediate results.  Multi-line statements (such as method and class definitions) are also allowed.\n\nThe one big problem with Ruby is that it is dynamically typed and interpreted, and thus very slow, although I've heard it is not much slower than Python or Perl.\n\nMy second favorite language is C# 2.0, which has most of the features I would want in a statically-typed language.  (although there's certainly enough missing that I still wish I had time to develop my own language.)"
Switch to Mac?,"Antivirus software is the answer.  There are several free programs (AVG and Avast are two examples) that can help protect you from viruses.  Keep them up-to-date, and you should have no worries.

how do you get aids physically? do condom provideone of the best protection?,"As far as I understand, there must be some body fluid contact, however small. AIDS virus is found in blood, semen and vaginal secretions but oddly enough, NOT saliva. \n\n""Fluid contact"" usually involves sexual intercourse, but may also happen when sharing needles, recieving contaminated blood etc. \n\nNot having sex at all provides the best protection, condoms are second best. In addition to condoms, good lubrication is also important, as it prevents the condom from breaking, and small skin abrasions from occuring. Your best bet is to use condoms and KY Jelly -- it's cheap & easy to apply (I wonder why so many people don't use it!). \n\nCondoms are not 100% safe, of course, but neither is driving to work in the morning.\n\nAIDS risk from unprotected o-r-a-l sex is low, but there are other things you can catch that way. A-n-a-l sex is very risky, abrasions are more likely to appear since lubrication often inadequate.\n\n( Yahoo Answers censors some words, hence the dashes. What a silly policy -- does AIDS advice need to be censored? I bet if I used really, really, nasty language, the filter would not catch them. )"

What are some treatment options for a herniated disc in the lower spine?,"The initial treatment for a herniated disc is usually conservative and nonsurgical. Your doctor may prescribe bed rest, or advise you to maintain a low, painless activity level for a few days to several weeks. This helps the spinal nerve inflammation to decrease.  herniated disc is frequently treated with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medication if the pain is only mild to moderate. An epidural steroid injection may be performed utilizing a spinal needle under x-ray guidance to direct the medication to the exact level of the disc herniation. Your doctor may recommend physical therapy. Therapy may include pelvic traction, gentle massage, ice and heat therapy, ultrasound, electrical muscle stimulation, and stretching exercises. Pain medication and muscle relaxants may also be beneficial in conjunction with the physical therapy. If these conservative measures do not help, then usually surgery is indicated."

What is the difference between religion and psychiatry?,Well Just a mom. You're having a cranky day aren't you. There is bad Psychiatry and there is bad Religion. Somebody in Med school and Seminary had to make the C's and D's. I think it is a little over the top to think that either Psychiatry or Religion is bad. I think it makes more sense to believe that I have a bad Psychiatrist or I have a bad Minister. A lot of people have better lives and believe that they have greater freedom because of the impact of Psychiatry or Religion on their lives. Not all of them are stupid. There are some people smarter than either of us who are solidly convinced that both Psychiatry and Relgion are real and that they can be complimentary. You have to decide what you believe and be prepared to deal with how your beliefs serve you or fail you.

Why do people say 'pardon my french' when they cuss?,"Taken from the included link: ""This phrase, in which French refers to ""bad language"", is employed when the speaker feels compelled to use an obscenity despite having listeners who might be offended.  It's a late 19th century euphemism which first appeared in Harper's Magazine in 1895.\n\nIt is thought that the term French is employed in this sense as it already had a history of association with things considered vulgar.  As far back as the early 16th century, French pox and the French disease were synonyms for genital herpes, and French-sick was another term for syphillis.  The OED also equates the adjective French with ""spiciness"", as in French letter for ""condom"", French kiss (1923) and French (i. e. ""sexually explicit"") novels (from 1749)."""

It may also reflect the importance of visitation to the grave, with the stone indicating that someone has been to visit.\n\nRabbi David Wolpe suggests that in ancient times, a shepard counted his sheep at the beginning of the day by carrying the corresponding number of stones, and these were used to ascertain that the same number returned at night. Rabbi Wolpe then suggests that thestones may symbolize how precious each soul is to God, who, as it were, 'counts"" each person in the world.\n\n-->"
nanomagnetic?,"Nanomagnetic devices are, well, devices which are magnetic made using nanotechnology. Nanotechnology is the creation of tiny machines by manipulating individual atoms or small groups of atoms. \n\nOne strong use for magnetic materials this size is for use as a data storage medium.

By creating nanomagnetic materials you can make storage for very small devices or create extremely dense storage materials for larger devices (dense in that a lot of information can be stored in a small location).\n\nBeyond nanomagnetics is spintronics where digital data is stored in the ""spin"" of individual atoms. ""Spin"" is a quantum mechanical property which includes magnetic properties."

why does a human live for only abt 70 odd years..........?,People have a genetic coding that basically extends life to approx 125 years old.  Our genetic make up accounts for approximately 30% of our life expectancy.  Environment and habits accounts for the other 70%.  Our bodies are constantly breaking down and our body does not have the ability to repair these breakdown indefinately.  Once our body loses the ability to repair our breakdowns we begin to see signs of aging.  Once the process begins we are unable to effectively stop it.  Maybe with advances of science and gene therapy we can extend our ability to repair but until then you are kind of stuck with your genetic make up.

"what is ""allometric chenge"" in geomorphology?","Allometry is the study of the relative rates of change of two variables of a system. In the study of landforms, or the processes acting upon them, the power function Y = a Xb is useful for correlating changes in variables. Allometric analysis includes the study of dynamic interrelations during geomorphic history, or the static interrelations at a given time. Such analyses may include aspects of geomorphic open systems that are tending toward a steady state, have attained a steady state, or do not tend toward a steady state. The highly flexible allometric model can be used to demonstrate adjustment between interdependent variables of hillslopes, streams, and depositional environments.\n\nIt is highly unlikely that geomorphic steady states exist, because the dependent variables of a geomorphic open system cannot attain a time-independent state where the independent variables do not remain constant. Independent variables, such as climate, uplift, base level, erodibility of surficial materials, and impact of man, are changing at rates that are sufficiently rapid as to preclude attainment of steady state, particularly for those landforms that require geologic time spans to approach steady-state configurations. For most studies of processes and landforms, a broad perspective of the interrelations of materials, processes, and landforms can be obtained by using the model of allometric change in which landscape elements and processes are changing at different rates."

Do women really care about finding a nice guy?,"Girls do like nice guys. I had a bad boy phase myself, but after I got sick of their games and lies, a nice guy was the one who won my heart afterall. Sometimes it is hard for a girl to see that a guy they are dating isn't nice at first. Alot of jerks act super nice to get into bed with them, and even abusers have been known to act really sweet to the girl to gain their trust and then ruin their self confidence bit by bit, but the whole time, the girl may not see it, they see the ""nice"" guy they fell in love with. They sometimes never realize it was an act all along. Outsiders realize that this guy is a jerk, but the girl is so naive, they think that he really is nice, deep down. Some girls also feel they do not deserve someone nice. I felt this way for awhile after a mentally abusive relationship. I thought noone decent would love me. But I was wrong, and the girls who only date jerks are too. Just hard to make them see it. Find a girl who is ready for a nice guy, they are out there, justhard to find nowadays ;)"
what is an atom?,"An atom is a submicroscopic structure found in all ordinary matter. It is the smallest unit of an element to retain all the chemical properties of that element. The word atom originally meant a smallest possible particle of matter, not further divisible. Later, the objects that had been called atoms were found to be further divisible into smaller subatomic particles, but the word atom nonetheless continues to refer to them.\n\nMost atoms are composed of three types of massive subatomic particles which govern their external properties:\n\n    * electrons, which have a negative charge and are the least massive of the three;\n    * protons, which have a positive charge and are about 1836 times more massive than electrons; and\n    * neutrons, which have no charge and are about 1838 times more massive than electrons.\n\nTogether, protons and neutrons form the nucleus of an atom, which is surrounded by the electrons.\n\nAtoms can differ in the number of each of the subatomic particles they contain. Atoms of the same element have the same number of protons, but can differ in the number of neutrons, in which case they are called isotopes of that element. Atoms are electrostatically neutral if they have an equal number of protons and electrons. Electrons that are furthest from the nucleus are less tightly bound to the atom and are relatively easily transferred to other nearby atoms or even shared between atoms. Atoms which have either a deficit or a surplus of electrons are called ions. Particles in the nucleus also sometimes escape atoms, in a process known as radioactive decay.\n\nAtoms are the fundamental building blocks of chemistry, and are conserved in chemical reactions. Atoms are able to bond into molecules and other types of chemical compounds. Molecules are made up of multiple atoms; for example, a molecule of water is a combination of two hydrogen and one oxygen atom."
"Have you ever seen the movie ""Event Horizon?""?","Unfortunately, yes. I think Manohla Dargis of the LA Weekly said it best:\n\n""The worst thing about Event Horizon--written by Philip Eisner, directed by Paul Anderson--isn't all the gore decorating the 21st-century space ship that gives the movie its name, but the filmmakers' reliance on shock edits and headache-inducing sound F/X to obscure the fact that this is one of the most derivative movies to hit screens in memory."""
why do men loose interest in girls once they have them?,Because they are more interested in the pursuit rather than who it is they are pursuing.
What is the seed of sound?,"The speed of sound in air depends on a number of factors - air temperature and pressure.  Generally the higher the altitude the lower the speed of sound.\n\nIn air, sound waves travel at around 330 metres/second (when the air temperature is 0 degrees centigrade). At 40 degrees centigrade (a very very hot day) the velocity increases to 354 metres/second in air.\n\nThe average figure for speed of sound at standard temperature and pressure is quoted as 343 metres per second or 767 miles per hour."
"According to news sites, the Earth's rotation slows only 2 milliseconds each 100 years. So why the heck are","nothing to do with daylight savings. Daylight savings is a human invention, not a natural phenomenon.\n\n...because leap seconds are not being added to compensate for the Earth's rotation slowing down.\n\nThe amount of time it takes for the earth to revolve around the sun is 365.2425 days.\n\nEven that is an approximation, the decimal digits can keep going on.\n\nSo initially, the calendar was divided evenly in 365 days. But about every 4 years, you'd be off 1 day. A century later, you've drifted off by a whole month!\n\nSo, leap years came into effect. Febuary has another day every 4 years. \n\nBut now you've approximated a year to 365.25 days, when in reality, its 365.2425 days.\n\nEvery century, you'll be off 1 day.\n\nSo that's where the next rule comes into play: ""If the year is divisible by 4, but not by 100, its a leap year.""\n\nNow we've approximated it to 365.2425, but because its always going to be an approximation, our calendar days are always slipping. All because the earth doesn't take exactly 365 days to go around the sun.\n\nThis is why leap seconds are added, and not to account for the slowdown of the earth's rotation.\n\nAs to why days are divided in exactly 24 hours, I'm not sure. But I would think the time difference is WAY less than 20 minutes, or we'd notice that soon enough, its dark at noon! :)  Time was divided a long time ago, and a simple system was sought for keeping track of it, so the minuts/hour/year thing is a nice division thats easy to do math with. The lost time, if its accounted for by leap years and such, could be easier to manage.\n\nFirst, I never said the earth is not slowing down. I said its not why leap seconds exist. And ok, I can entertain my explanation may be wrong, but that's no reason for your condescending tone, Jolly Roger. But look, your link brings me to a christian science evanglism site, where is the evidence that my answer is incorrect? \n\nYou haven't bothered to explain his original question. If leapseconds account for the slowdown of the earth's rotation, why are there leap seconds and not leap milliseconds?\n\nIf you want to append to your answer, at least try to do so while respecting the other users on this site, and not insult their intelligence.\n\nThis has piqued my curiosity, if there's anyone out there that has a source that says my explanation is incorrect, I mean an actual science website, you know, one that steers clear of religion, please let me know."

Where did the tradition of Christmas trees start?,"In the 7th century a monk from Crediton, Devonshire, went to Germany to teach the Word of God. He did many good works there, and spent much time in Thuringia, an area which was to become the cradle of the Christmas Decoration Industry.\n\nLegend has it that he used the triangular shape of the Fir Tree to describe the Holy Trinity of God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. The converted people began to revere the Fir tree as God's Tree, as they had previously revered the Oak. By the 12th century it was being hung, upside-down, from ceilings at Christmastime in Central Europe, as a symbol of Christianity.\n\nThe first decorated tree was at Riga in Latvia, in 1510. In the early 16th century, Martin Luther is said to have decorated a small Christmas Tree with candles, to show his children how the stars twinkled through the dark night."
Why are jews so few in numbers even though their religion came before christianity & Islam ?,"Jews have been persecuted for Centuries for stupid reasons and have been made scrapegoats in many other occasions and forced to emigrate.  \n\nKnowing that you can be expulsed from your country at any time does not make you very enclined to have many children. \n\nAdd to that the millions of Jews who were forced to convert in the Middle Ages and have now lost their heritage...\n\nAlso, Judaism in itself can feel restrictive (food laws as an example) and it tends to be centered on ancestors and ties to the land of Israel which makes it harder to recruit converts."
Is it true that your personality is determine by your date and place of birth?,"Genetics my question asker play the major role in determining your personality, however some people do believe that when you are concieved plays a part, because your mother has to deal with different enviromental factors with the changing of the seasons.\nAlso, the moon phases are believed to have an effect on the amniotic fluid you are swimming around in.\nAll of this leads to hints why people born under certain astrological signs act the way they do."
sbc offers different price rates for dsl.  what is the best if my son will be playing x box live?,"Xbox Live is just like any online game. The biggest issue you will ever see has to do with Latency, also known as ""Lag"". \n\nLatency occurs when there are bottlenecks in the general network layout. Think LA freeways at 5pm on a Friday night. Unfortunately this issue is not one you can change, because it has to do with the actual design of the network, so choosing your provider properly is essential.\n\nCable Internet, in its basic form, is a shared medium. This means that every person who subscribes to Cable in your neighborhood shares the same on-ramp to the internet. This is only a problem if there are large numbers of concurrent users in your area.\n\nDSL, on the other hand, connects you to the backbone in a more efficient, seperated manner. This has the advantage of being much less susceptible to latency. Unfortunately, this advantage goes down the farther away from the switching office (CO) you are. \n\nAnother thing to consider is newer Cable networks tend to use a different model of communications than the old ones, and so approach DSL levels of service.\n\nTo sum up: DSL is better than Cable, but tends to be slower. However any speed higher than about 1 meg / sec should be MORE than sufficient to run today's games."

does putting alot of jobs on your resume hurt when looking for employnwent?,"I stopped putting those little jobs on mine, and I don't think anyone cares.  (Having a lot there can make the resume hard to read, and bury the important work you've done.)\n\nMostly, employers are concerned with experience that actually relates to the job for which you're submitting the resume.\n\nUsually, if an employer wants a _complete_ job history (for government jobs, background checks, etc), they'll give you a separate form with plenty of legal language concerning the honesty of your answers.\n\nJust make sure you're completely honest about your work history when it comes time to sign forms."

"Where do my teeth get their ""Wisdom"" from?","WISDOM TEETH: IS IT WISE TO REMOVE THEM?\n\nCommon misunderstandings surround their name origin, removal reasons and pain sources\n\nWisdom teeth, also known as third molars, are the last teeth to grow in the back of\nthe mouth. Common misunderstandings surround their name origin, removal reasons and\npain sources, according to the Academy of General Dentistry, an organization of\ngeneral dentists dedicated to continuing education. \n\n""The name 'wisdom teeth' is age related - third molars don't erupt until teenage\nyears and beyond, when people theoretically are more wise to the world,"" says Trey\nPetty, DDS, FAGD, spokesperson for the Academy of General Dentistry.\n\nCommon reasons for wisdom teeth removal include impaction, pain and crowding of the\nother teeth, which are typical tooth growth characteristics.\n\n""If wisdom teeth are not visible, they are impacted or unable to erupt due to space\nand size limitations,"" says Dr. Petty. ""Impacted teeth don't have enough room to grow,\nand will lay beneath the gums, which may or may not be a problem."" \n\nPain and tooth crowding are also top wisdom teeth problems. ""Adults have forgotten\nwhat normal pain from a growing tooth feels like,"" says Dr. Petty. Complications also\ncan arise when wisdom teeth partially erupt. The broken gum acts as a breeding ground\nfor bacteria and germs. \n\n""When wisdom teeth partially erupt, food gets caught in the gums and may cause an\ninfection, swelling, growth of a tumor or cyst and pain,"" says Dr. Petty. ""If this\nhappens, consult a dentist before problems worsen and affect overall oral health.""\n\n""If wisdom teeth have erupted, the key to preserving them is maintaining good oral\nhealth by brushing twice a day and going to see a dentist twice a year,"" says\nDr. Petty."

what is the best way to study?,"Many students are surprised at the differences in studying for college courses versus how they studied in high school. Regular worksheets are replaced by vast midterms and exams which require knowledge about concepts rather than simple memorization of facts. Students frequently discover they need to adapt their study habits to the college setting. Here are some tips for getting started:\n\n    * Study in chunks: 20-50 minute time periods followed by a brief break (5-10 minutes) is the most effective way to study\n    * Use daylight hours: an hour of studying during the day is worth two at night! Do the work that requires the most concentration (typically reading) earliest in the day.\n    * Rank your three classes and be sure to spend time on your most challenging class everyday and early in the day.\n    * Study actively: ask yourself questions, review your notes regularly, discuss key concepts with peers and course professor \n\nWhere to Study:\n\nAlthough studying in a dorm room is convenient, it is often a poor place to learn. The dorm has a plethora of distractions including Blitzmail, Snood, the telephone, video games, friends down the hall. Lying down on the bed to read turns into an hour long nap and a bright yellow highlighter spot on your sheets!\n\nIf you want to improve your concentration and efficiency as a student, develop a place to study that is just that - a place where you go to work on academics. The campus is full of good spots to study. Experiment with what works best for you. The handout below provides a list of common study spots on campus and includes rankings of noise level, cleanliness, and availability."

how to accept usa visa?,"THIS IS MY OPINION, NOT LEGAL ADVICE!!!!\n\nForeign nationals from poor countries are often denied visas under 214(b), intending immigrant.  Unlike in other areas of the law, applicants are considered guilty until proven innocent.\n\nYou must convice the visa officer that your life in Georgia is better than a potential life in America.  This is accomplished by showing close ties to your home country.\n\nYou should present evidence of the following things at your visa interview:\n1)  A letter from your employer indicating that you have a good job and are expected to return to your job after you return.\n2)  A copy of your bank statements showing that you have sufficient money to fund your trip.\n3)  A copy of your lease/mortgage showing that you have a home in Georgia that you can not leave.\n4)  Proof of a car.\n5)  Photos of you travelling in other developed countries.  For example, if you went to London on vacation and came back, you are more likely to return to Georgia after visiting New York.\n6)   A good reason to visit America.  I would say that you want to go to Las Vegas and Los Angeles.  Don't say: I want to stay at my cousin's house for three months.\n7) Luck.  Honestly, if your cousin lives in Chicago and the visa officer is from Chicago, you will have better luck.  I once went to a lecture by a visa officer.  He said that he once approved somebody because an applicant was planning on studying in America, but wanted to look at colleges first.  One of the five colleges listed, was the speakers small liberal arts college.  Because of that, the visa was granted."
What is the reason behind the creation of the FBI?,"The FBI originated from a force of Special Agents created in 1908 by Attorney General Charles Bonaparte during the Presidency of Theodore Roosevelt. Roosevelt and Bonaparte both were ""Progressives."" They shared the conviction that efficiency and expertise, not political connections, should determine who could best serve in government. Theodore Roosevelt became President of the United States in 1901; four years later, he appointed Bonaparte to be Attorney General. In 1908, Bonaparte applied that Progressive philosophy to the Department of Justice by creating a corps of Special Agents. It had neither a name nor an officially designated leader other than the Attorney General. Yet, these former detectives and Secret Service men were the forerunners of the FBI.\n\nBy 1907, the Department of Justice most frequently called upon Secret Service ""operatives"" to conduct investigations. These men were well-trained, dedicated -- and expensive. Moreover, they reported not to the Attorney General, but to the Chief of the Secret Service. This situation frustrated Bonaparte, who wanted complete control of investigations under his jurisdiction. Congress provided the impetus for Bonaparte to acquire his own force. On May 27, 1908, it enacted a law preventing the Department of Justice from engaging Secret Service operatives.\n\nThe following month, Attorney General Bonaparte appointed a force of Special Agents within the Department of Justice. Accordingly, ten former Secret Service employees and a number of Department of Justice peonage (i.e., compulsory servitude) investigators became Special Agents of the Department of Justice. On July 26, 1908, Bonaparte ordered them to report to Chief Examiner Stanley W. Finch. This action is celebrated as the beginning of the FBI."

"what is titratable acidity, how is it formed in the kidney and excreted in the urine?","Titratable Acidity\nH+ is produced from CO2 and H2O (as in the proximal tubular cells) and actively transported into the distal tubular lumen via a H+-ATPase pump. Titratable acidity represents the H+ which is buffered mostly by phosphate which is present in significant concentration. Creatinine (pKa approx 5.0) may also contribute to TA. At the minimum urinary pH, it will account for some of the titratable acidity. If ketoacids are present, they also contribute to titratable acidity. In severe diabetic ketoacidosis, beta-hydroxybutyrate (pKa 4.8) is the major component of TA.\n\nThe TA can be measured in the urine from the amount of sodium hydroxide needed to titrate the urine pH back to 7.4 hence the name ‘titratable acidity’."

"IF THE HOUSTON TEXANS GET THE #1 PICK IN NEXT YEARS NFL DRAFT, SHOULD THEY GET REGGIE BUSH?","Houston has a good young QB in Carr, a good your receiver in Johnson, and a good young RB in Davis. Logically, I would say trade down and build up the bigger needs at OL and defense in order to build a more complete team. However, Reggie Bush may be a once in a generation type of player and whatever team passes on him may be looked on historically as we do the Portland Trailblazers for passing on Michael Jordan."

will the seattle seahawks go the superbowl this year?,"No, for two reasons:\n\n1. They're not as good as their overall record (11-2). They play in the uber-weak NFC West which means fat helpings of the Niners, Rams and Cardinals. Yum. They're 3-2 versus teams with winning records (and the Giants game really should have made that 2-3). So I don't think they're that much better than the Giants, Bears/Vikes, Bucs, Panthers, Falcons, Cowboys and Skins--doesn't mean they can't get there, I just don't think they're the overwhelming favorite that their record would indicate.\n\n2.) A lot of the time, teams reach the Conference Championship once and lose at least once before winning and going to the Super Bowl. It's not a lock, it's not certain (and it depends a lot on the competition), but look for the Seahawks to make it to the NFC Championship and lose to someone recently experienced in getting to the next level like the Bucs/Giants/Panthers."

I'm an atheist and I believe in lots of things:  my children's love and the scientific method, for example.  I just don't believe in god(s).\n\nAs for Communism, that was a unfortunate combination of an academic theorist (Marx) and a totalitarian revolutionary (Lenin) -- which is why it's sometimes referred to as Marxist-Leninism.  Lenin and Stalin's terrible effects on the USSR shouldn't necessarily detract from our understanding of Marx's class analysis of society.  Any doubt about whether class exists as a powerful force in the US should have been thoroughly washed away by Hurricane Katrina."

what is the maximum amount of ssi benefits a 23 year old person can resieve if going to school in merced count,"As usual with legal-related questions on Yahoo! Answers, far too little information exists to answer the question adequately.  Are you disabled?  And you're a student in Merced County, California?  Regardless, the information regarding your situation is far too abstract and ambiguous to provide a concrete answer.  I've included a link to BEST put out by the Social Security Administration.  BEST is the Benefit Eligibility Screening Tool, which does not compute the total sum of benefits you're eligible for, but simply determine which category of benefits are right for you, if you're eligible.  This should be the first step toward determining the total eligible.  The SSA would be able to provide more details for you in your specific situation, since amounts may vary wildly depending on personal facts and details."
where did formula 1 get its name from?,"there are many ""formula ___"" racing series - formula simply means a set of rules.  in the early days of grand prix auto racing, there was a race series called ""formula libre"" which is, i think, italian for ""free form"" - basically no rules, and the fastest car wins.  various rule sets were introduced over the years, and formula ""one"" was so named because it was to be the fastest and highest level of competition.  \n\nsee the links below for a great backstory on the history of GP racing as well as a list of other formulae series."

Passionate people - do they match well together or spell disaster?,"This is more of a case-by-case situation. With the understanding that both people are very passionate, the whole relationship could boil down to a competition of expression; one might try to outdue the other in showing how much they care. Depending on the people, this could come out very well, but at the same time, it could end in catastrophe. Another way it could end up going is that one of the two may feel too clouded in the other's show of passion, and feel like they need a break... thus possibly bringing the whole thing to an end. Not a common occurance, but it happens. The last thing i will mention is the more common of the 3, and by far, the best. The two people keep their display of passion limited to a certain amount. this assures that noone will feel drown out, and at the same time, neither of the two feels neglected by the other. I'm not talking about only saying ""i love you"" every 3rd wednesday or anything, those little things are ok to do whenever, but bigger things like dinner dates, trips to the movies, roses and yes, even sex, should be ""rationed"" to make sure you don't burn your candle down too fast and feel that there is nothing more really for you. \n\nIt is possible for any of these to happen, and with some variance, but once again, it all boils down to the types of people involved. Their other traits in their personality and their past will influence which path will occur.\n\n(i love your questions btw, give me more to answer, lol)"

I have to put sulfur in my hair and have been mixing it with aloe vera gel.There is an odor.Is this toxic?,"What you are probably using is called pharmaceutical sulfur. It is used as a scabicide, parasiticidal, and antiseptic. There are three forms. Precipitated sulfur, sublimed sulfur, washed sulfur. Sublimed and washed sulfur are in the form of a fine yellow crystalline powder, with only a faint odor and taste. Precipitated sulfur is a very fine pale yellow amorphous or microcryst powder, which is odorless and tasteless. I am still looking for toxicity data and I will update my answer if I find anything. I wouldn't worry about using it, the cure is probably better than the illness. But always talk to a doctor before starting any kind of treatments."

Why is it dark when it rains but not when it snows during the day?,"Well to be more precise:\n\nThe mass of rain within a cloud directly affects how much light actually passes through, as the rain mass is somewhat of a solid entity, the light finds it hard to actually pass through.\n\nSnow clouds, and banks, ect are of equal mass, but not density.  Snow is inherently lighter than that of rain, which makes the light pass through them more efficiently.\n\nAlso, you have to understand that the cloud is still producing rain, however within the colder altitudes above the surface the rain is eventually forzen into snow/ice.  Because of this, the cloud releases light at a much faster rate than a true rain cloud would, allowing the light to reflect off the falling ice/snow."

"If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around, does it make a sound?","The answer to this depends on if you are a physicist or a biologist! A physicist would say ""yes"" because to him/her sound is vibration of air molecules which will occur when a tree falls. \n\nA biologist, however would say ""no"" because sound is a perception in the brains of living things capable of perceiving it. The perception is a brain's interpretation of the nerve signals sent to it as a result of vibrations causing the eardrum to vibrate, then the ossicles in the middle ear, then the fluid in the cochlea, then the hair cells etc. There is no sound until a brain perceives it, only vibrating air.\n\nEven if the vibrations are recorded, there is still no sound until the recording is played and heard/interpreted by a capable brain."

In what ways does wildlife extinction impacts our world.?,"There is this really great book called EXTINCTION by the Ehrlichs(?)...which starts out with a beautiful analogy about the environment. It starts off with this guy who removes rivets (screws) from an airplane wing so that he could sell them for profit. Each rivet/screw represents a unique species that plays an important role in our ecosystem. The loss of each one has an adverse effect on the whole structure. It is true that such effects may or may not have an immediate recognizable effect on us but that does not mean that it is not happening. Also, we humans, have proven that we are really self centered that we do not recognize the damage that we are doing unless it hits us in the face. There are countless examples of chain reactions in the ecosystem due to a loss of an integral species. For example, (although I am no longer certain about the details) due to the misuse of a pesticide by farmers in rural Peru, an outbreak of more resistant  pests evolved. The farmers in reaction started to use more pesticides which affected the other species that naturally feed on and control these pests. The situation got so bad that it escalated to such an extent that cats which controlled the rat population died out because they got the higher dose of the poisonous pesticide in their system. Finally, (believe it or not) they had to fly cats to the area and dropped them from helicopters...thus it did rain cats that day in Peru."

How do i make an animated gif or animate an avatar?,"animated GIF\nA moving picture in GIF format, which is made up of a series of frames. When displayed, they provide an animated sequence that cycles over and over without stopping. Although popular on the Web, animated GIFs are larger than single-frame GIFs and take longer to download.

Very different than GIF and much more sophisticated, Flash is popular on the Web for instructional sequences as well as animations of all kind. Flash is an interactive format and its vector images take up much less space than GIF's bitmapped images. See Flash and GIF"

how to recieve sounds in an acoustic guitar.?,"Good question.  I'll try to keep it short.  The sound is produced by the string vibrations, this also causes the face of the guitar and other strings to vibrate.  The sound from the vibrating guitar string goes into the sound hole, bounces arround, then comes out out, but louder from the soung hole.  This is why accoustic guitar are louder than unamplified electric guitars.  \n\nIf you wish to use a mic, I recommend an onmi-directional microphone into an amp.  Then you can use the effects loop if your amp has one.  Remember onmi-directional mics pick up from all directions.  So if you are near the bass amp, you may want to consider exact placement.\n\nBest wishes."
why do singers with accents dont sing with accents?,"What I've noticed is that people with accents don't really have the ""accents"", but you still can recognise when someone with accent's singing English song. There's something in the way that person pronounces certain letters or words. Take T.a.t.u. for example, they don't have Russian accent in songs but you can hear their English isn't really native, you can hear their pronounciation of some letters are different, in some way softer. And Spanish singers, too, they have some softer pronounciation. And I agree with the rest that it's all about the intonation when you sing so that's why you can't hear their accents."

Once you know what type of people you'll be dealing with you'll be more at ease knowing you can handle what difficulties may come from them.
Can anyone tell me how a tablet(medicine) works?,"Many tablets today are coated after being pressed. Some coatings are just to provide color or a smooth finish, or to facilitate printing on the tablet (although characters and symbols are easy to emboss into the tablets using special punches). Coatings are not often sugar-based (the old ""sugar-coating""!) to make pill-taking less unpleasant. Some tablets, however, have a special coating termed an enteric coating, which is resistant to stomach acid and dissolves in the high pH of the intestines. The purpose of this coating is to prevent dissolution of the tablet in the stomach, where the stomach acid may degrade the active ingredient, or where the time of passage may compromise its effectiveness, in favor of dissolution in the small intestine, where the active principle is better absorbed.\n\nTablet presses, the machines that make the tablets, range from small, inexpensive bench-top models that make one tablet at a time, no more than a few thousand an hour, and with only around a half-ton pressure, to large, computerized, industrial models that can make hundreds of thousands of tablets an hour with much greater pressure. Some tablet presses can make extremely large tablets, such as some of the toilet cleaning and deodorizing products."

what can you say about outsourcing?,"It's here, whether we like it or not!!\n\nRead Friedman's The World Is Flat: A Brief History of the Twenty-first Century.\n\nIt's about outsourcing.\n\nWhat Friedman means by ""flat"" is ""connected"": the lowering of trade and political barriers and the exponential technical advances of the digital revolution have made it possible to do business, or almost anything else, instantaneously with billions of other people across the planet.\n\nGlobalization 3.0, as he calls it, is driven by individuals: desktop freelancers and innovative startups all over the world (but especially in India and China) who can compete--and win--not just for low-wage manufacturing and information labor but, increasingly, for the highest-end research and design work as well.\n\nVery interesting book..."
Will MBA be a good degree for My Career in Software Industry..I already have a MSCS?,"It depends what kind of role you want in software.  I also received my MS in computer science, but I wanted to take a more business active role, so I pursued an MBA.  I wouldn't trade it for the world.  But realize, that if you love to code and do architectural design, then you should stick with what you love, and an MBA won't help.  If you want to take a role at the general manager level or above (anything in strategy, marketing, planning, etc) then an MBA is priceless.  There are some stupid people with MBA's, but don't judge the MBA by a few stupid people.\n\nSo in sum:  First, your career is only good if you are pursuing something you enjoy.  So if a purely technical role is your passion, stay where you are.  If you have a passion for the business itself, beyond the pure technical aspects, then go for the MBA so that you can succeed with your passion."

Is Gmail the best free email service available currently?,I think Gmail is the best free e-mail service available.  It offers more storage space than any other service.  They are currently offering over 2GB of storage space.  You have a better opportunity to get a good screen name since it has not been around for as long as some of the other services.  It has a very user friendly interface.  You don't have to delete any e-mail and you can quickly search through all of your archived mail.  They have a very good spam filter.  The text ads are very unobstructive.  And the best thing is that they are always improving this great service!

Finally, our preferences can change so that things we once found ""tasty"" no longer appeal to us and vice-versa."

What is an alpha male?,"An alpha male or alpha female is the individual in the community whom the others follow and defer to. Humans and their nearest species-relatives, the chimpanzees, show deference to the alpha of the community by ritualized gestures such as bowing, allowing the alpha to walk first in a procession, or standing aside when the alpha challenges. Canines also show deference to the alpha pair in their pack, by allowing them to be the first to eat and, usually, the only pair to mate. Wolves are a well known example of this.\n\nThe status of alpha is generally achieved by means of superior physical prowess. However in certain highly-social species such as the Bonobo apes, the alpha can use more indirect methods (such as political alliances) to oust the ruling alpha and take his/her place."

Delete every thing that you can, including the stuff in the Trash can.\n\nNext open My Computer and highlight and select your hard drive with a single right click.  You should see an options window open.  Left click on Properties to open a drive window.  Next left click on the Tools tab, followed by the Defragment button.\n\nOnce the Defrag is done, your drive is going to be as clean as you can get it without special programs or information.

How is an economy started?,"It mainly develops naturally. The flow of money is the building block of an economy, and people will keep money flowing fairly well on their own as long as there is a basic infrastructure, such as a set market place and day/time. The highly complex economy we have today is mainly the result of these natural developments. Governmental interference can only make a limited amount of difference."

Did Jesus really die on the cross?,"The fact that a man named Jesus, from Nazareth was crucified under a Roman ruler named Pontius Pilot is one of the best attested to facts in ancient history.  \n\nReligious historians - such as Luke, the doctor, who's testment can be read in any commonly circulated version of the Christian Bible (The Gospel of Luke) -- as well as secular historians like the Roman historian Tactitus all agree on this fact.  They differ in how they choose to understand Jesus' death on the cross -- where a religous historian like Luke would say that Jesus was the ""messiah"" (the Christ, of Jewish Prophesy) and the son of God, Tacitus, refers to him simply as a nussaince and the originator of a ""mischevious superstition"".  \n\nSee below for more info."

How can there be so many people who do not believe in our current war (here on yahoo alone) yet we're in a war,"Judging by the last two elections it is evident that the voice of the people no longer exists.\n\nWhat you are currently witnessing is the sad truth of how corrupt individuals have overthrown a good working government and turned it into a dictatorship through manipulation.\n\nAlso another BIG misunderstanding is most people believe that the United States is a Democracy when in fact it is not!  It is a Republic!  A true Democracy (direct Democracy) would allow individuals to directly vote on legislation and do away with Senators and Congresspeople.

how can i get a boyfriend? what do they look for in a girl?,"Be nice to him but don't crowd him.  Don't pressure him to do something with you the first time he talks to you.  Let him get comfortable with you.\n\nA guy will usually like a girl who laughs at his jokes. It shows she is atuned to him. Kind of thinks the same way he does.  It kind of validates his attitude or way of thinking.  It is kind of like you saying to him, ""that is very smart"" without coming right out and saying it.  Of course, only if he said something funny!\n\nAsk him for his opinion, once in a while.  Things like ""what do YOU think?"" or ""which one do YOU prefer?"" are good questions.  They are easy for him to answer if you are asking about something that is in the front of his mind at the moment.\n\nQuestions like ""what are you THINKING?"" are almost always hard for guys to answer, on the other hand.  They may not be thinking much of anything, but if they say that, they sound kind of stupid.  Or they might be thinking about something boring. If they tell you what it is, you will think they are boring. \n\nTry not to put them on the spot like that, at least not until you are at the flirting stage. At that point, you can sort of hint what they should be thinking.  In other words, a question can be a little bit like taking a test.  If you are going to give them one, make sure it is an easy one.\n\nDress nice, of course.  But do not worry about if your clothes or accessories are really expensive.  Know why?\n\nGuys have no idea how much girls' clothes cost. They might not even know how much their own clothes cost.\n\nLots of boys when they are taken clothing shopping just want to get in and get out of that store.\n\nThey might really care about a jacket, true. Shoes, possibly - like if they are into sports and need a good shoe for their sport or running. But pants, socks, belts, shirts - probably just wearing them because they have to.  Jackets and coats are a little different.\n\nIf you want to catch a guy's eye, do some color-coordindation.  For example, if you have a sweater or shirt with some lavendar in it, wearing earings or a hair clip that is exactly the same color will look really neat.  He will think you are a sharp dresser.\n\nThe same thing goes for your eyes.  If you wear a shirt that has some of the same color as your eyes, that might catch his eyes.  Up to ten percent of all guys are slightly color blind though. Details vary, but some guys cannot even tell red from green.  So if doing that color matching thing does not work, do not take it too hard.  Or, try matching two things of a different color than the first one you tried.\n\nI guess if varies from guy to guy but usually a nice hairstyle catches my eye.  If your hair looks nice, he might notice that.\n\nLooking straight into his eyes when you are talking to him.  That might get you noticed more too.\n\nBeing fit, in good shape helps.  You don't have to be super skinny or super strong.  You don't really have to be super anything.  Just be healthy.\n\nAlso, if you are happy and smile a lot, guys like that.  Talking with other guys or girls is good too.  It shows you are social, you make friends easily, and you have friends.  That makes you more interesting, probably.\n\nIf you go overboard trying to do something to make him like you, it could backfire a little.  If you laugh at his jokes when you really don't think they are funny at all, he might sense from your tone or your expression that you are being kind of phony.\n\nSometimes you can be a little sarcastic, kind of dig at him a little with a comment, just to get his attention.  But don't start putting him down or calling him stupid or weak.  That will just get him mad or hurt.  And, even if it doesn't, it will put his friends off toward you. They could start to feel like they need to protect him from you, maybe suggest he find a different girlfriend.\n\nYou could also get him a gift.  It does not have to be something expe"
what is a s-curl?,"S-curl \n \nS-Curl is a trademark for a line of hair products designed to slightly straighten the natural hair texture of a man of African decent, so that natural wave and curl patterns are looser and more prominent.

Does anybody know how to Astral Project? (controled out of body experience)?,"I've read a ton of books on the subject, that was quite a few years ago so I don't know what to recommend.  I had quite an experience that has stayed with me ever since that's too long to talk about here, but it was convincing enough, and I'm not prone to falling for supernatural explanations to explain what I don't understand.\n\nIn a nutshell, you need to be very relaxed and not in a place you can be distracted.  A breathing excercise helps, I use the ""breath in to count of three, hold for four, breath out for 5"" routine.  Get as relaxed as possible and concentrate on raising yourself up out of your body.  If you can concentrate easily it takes less tries of course, but you will actually feel it happen.  Whether that's a dream or not I don't know.  When you get to that point pick a place in the house to go to and concentrate on going there.  It's really simple, and doesn't take a great deal of effort.  This is the stage I was able to achieve, around 1986, when I stopped and never did it again.  Nothing really scary, I guess it just convinced me enough and I left it at that.\n\nGood luck."

"Should a professional gambler who file Income Tax as a gambler, report losses & wins from online gambling?","I agree with the answers provided above, but with one caveat. Illegal business activities are not allowed to deduct business expenses. So reporting the illegal gambling winnings on a Schedule C would mean that no expenses can be claimed. This would subject the gross winnings (from illegal gambling) to Self-Employment Taxes. This will increase your taxes, and not provide you with the benefit of deductible expenses.\n\nSo, I would list this income as gambling winnings, with losses reported on Schedule A as an itemized deduction.\n\nHope this helps.\n\nWilliam"

"Why do kids love cartoons and old people love soap operas, and old people shows?","Because cartoons are geared for a childrens understanding and attention span. Most cartoons are about a half hour long because a kid can only stay interested in a storyline for so long. Older people watch soaps for differing reasons. Some think they can solve the actors problems. Some live through the actors' lives. Some are bored and like the fantasy life of the character. Some, like myself, have watched soaps since I was really little, with my mom. I don't know what you call ""old people shows"" but I like CSI, Crossing Jordan, Las Vegas and American Idol. I don't know what category that puts me in...but maybe I am an old person. Depends how old you are compared to me. You could be right! I still like to watch cartoons too, like Shrek and Toy Story. One of my favorite comedies is Home Alone 1 and 3. So, I guess it depends on the old person, huh? <*)))><"

Why does a Kitchen gas burner glow yellow when a pot of boiling water overflows?,"Good question.   Could be a number of reason, but my guess would be that you have some salt in your boiling water.    When NaCl solution is placed in a flame the Na cation gets ionized and yellow light is given off.    It doesn't take much salt for you to see this effect.   You will see this even with regular tap water, since it also has a small amount of salts dissolved in it.    \nIn fact, standard distilled water is usually not pure enough to avoid this effect.    That's why chemist buy special stills to make ultrapure water for experiments."

So you will still have more to go!"

It is a bat-and-ball game played on a roughly elliptical grass field, in the centre of which is a hard, flat strip of ground some 22 yards long, called the pitch.\n\nAt each end of the pitch stand a set of wooden poles called a wicket (traditionally made from the wood of the ash tree). A player from one team (the bowler) propels a hard, fist-sized ball from one wicket towards the other. A player from the opposing team (the batsman) attempts to defend the ball from hitting the wicket with a wooden cricket bat, traditionally made of willow. Another batsman (the non-striker) stands in an inactive role near the bowler's wicket.\n\nFor more info on cricket, visit:\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cricket"

What causes bad breath and how do you get rid of it?,"The clinical term for bad breath is halitosis.  Bad breath is primarily caused by poor oral hygiene, but can also can be caused by retained food particles or gum disease. Proper brushing including brushing the tongue, cheeks, and the roof of the mouth will remove bacteria and food particles. Flossing removes accumulated bacteria, plaque and food that may be trapped between teeth. Mouth rinses are effective in temporary relief of bad breath. Consult your dentist and/or physician if the condition persists.\n\nIt is important to practice good oral hygiene, such as brushing and flossing your teeth at least twice a day. To alleviate the odor, clean your tongue with your toothbrush or a tongue scraper, a plastic tool that scrapes away bacteria that builds on the tongue. Chewing sugar-free gum also may help control the odor. If you have dentures or a removable appliance, such as a retainer or mouthguard, clean the appliance thoroughly before placing it back in your mouth. Before you use mouth rinses, deodorizing sprays or tablets, talk with your dentist because these products only mask the odor temporarily, and some products work better than others."

whats the best way for ME to get a Goverment grant to start a small business?,"It is hard to find grants to start a business. Unlike the myths that some perpetuate, federal government and even private foundations hardly give grant money for a for-profit business.\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."" Entrepreneurs are apparently not one of them, so I take it they also don't have listings of private foundations who give grants to would-be entrepreneurs."

What are the essential elements of a rule of law in the United States?,"The justification for checking the majority rests in the fact that the majority can not use their power to control a minority. The saying majority rules/minority rights is a good example. The majority is in charge but they can not use their power to stomp out a minority or take away minority rights. Also, the fouding fathers wanted to include this so that a dictatorship/kingship couldn't take form. By limiting the majority it limits their ability to take control in such a way."
When does Kingdom Hearts 2 come out in the U.S.?,"I've found a number of claims on the web - the only date I found that looks reasonable to me is March 1, 2006 for US release, with a release roughly now in Japan and first quarter 2006 in Europe."
DSL vs. broadband?,"DSL is a type of broadband connection.  It stands for Digital Subscriber Line, and is offered by traditional phone companies (wired, not wireless).  The signal travels thru phone lines and into your home or business.  A modem is connected to it so it can translate the signal into ditigal data and then is usually output via Ethernet.  Its main competitor (at least in homes)is Cable broadband.  The difference between the two is that cable generally provides faster bandwith (download/upload speed), but is less secure than DSL, which provides each user with a unique IP (Internet Protocol)address.  Most cable internet home subscribers are connected to a router with up to 255 other subscribers, making attacks and intrusions much more likely."

"what is ""intrisic value""?","Intrinsic value is the value of a thing (or person) based on its internal value. It is the value per se. The thing has value in and of itself. The value is inherent (naturally in) the thing.\n\nA forest has value for timber, mineral rights, tourism dollars; a shortcut to Grandmas house… but it also is a beautiful thing, perhaps a national treasure. The forest also has intrinsic value.\n\nThen there are also the answers cited. Like Nike, the Swoosh is part of Nike’s intrinsic value. If they sold off the swoosh, the intrinsic value of Nike would go down."
how do i find my soul mate?,"First of all, to draw the kind of person you want, you must be the kind of person your soul mate would want. Become secure in what type of person you are and what you want, so when the person comes along you will recognize them. Hang out in the kind of places your soul mate might be---meetings or clubs having to do with your hobbies or work, places of religion if you are religious, online dating sites, etc. Ultimately, I believe it comes down to who you are and what you project about yourself. Don't put on a front, be your true self, and eventually you and your soul mate will find each other. I followed what I've written here and it worked for me. My husband and I are truly soul mates and have been married a little over three years now. (Incidently, we met on the internet.:)) The poem ""Waiting"", in the link below, was my motto during the years I was seeking my soul mate."

why don't president Bush do something effective to keep illegal aliens out of the country?,I believe that like it or not nothing effective will ever be done and for this reason... illegal aliens usually come here to make money and create a better life for themselves. With the knowledge that they are illegal they are very willing to take jobs that pay under the minimum wage in order to even have a job. since this is illegal there is no way to get help on raising thier pay so they are stuck. This situation is appealing to the owners of agriculture because they can pay them very little for very hard labor increasing their profits. this in turn helps our economy as well as filling jobs that most americans do not want. So bush probably doesnt feel the need to address this problem.
what could be the internal control weaknesses in relation to purchases and accouts payables?,One obvious weakness would be having the same person who approves the purchase be the one who cuts the check. You need to have a separation of duties.

How do you make a Sudoku puzzle?,"Just randomly enter numbers according to the rules of the puzzle, but using a blank grid. Start with one or two per 9-square block. To make the puzzle difficult, only enter a few numbers, and add more to make it easier.\n\nIt should be quite simple for a computer program to make a Sudoku puzzle, since there are basic rules to follow. I'm sure the ""made by hand"" claim is for marketing purposes (though I'm sure it's true)."

Where can I get mozillan firefox and is it better than netscape?,"Mozilla Firefox is a free, cross-platform, graphical web browser developed by the Mozilla Corporation and hundreds of volunteers.[1] The browser began as a fork of the Navigator component of the Mozilla Application Suite; Firefox has since become the foundation's main development focus (along with its Thunderbird mail and news client), and has replaced the Mozilla Suite as their official main software release.\n\nBefore its 1.0 release, Firefox had already gained acclaim from numerous media outlets, including Forbes[2] and the Wall Street Journal.[3] With over 25 million downloads in the 99 days after the initial 1.0 release, Firefox became one of the most downloaded free and open source applications, especially among home users.[4] On October 19, 2005, Firefox had its 100 millionth download, just 344 days after the release of version 1.0.[5] Firefox 1.5 was released on November 29, 2005, on the redesigned Mozilla Corporation website, with more than 2 million downloads within the first 36 hours.\n\nFirefox includes an integrated pop-up blocker, tabbed browsing, live bookmarks, support for open standards, and an extension mechanism for adding functionality. Although other browsers have introduced these features, Firefox became the first such browser to achieve wide adoption.\n\nFirefox has attracted attention as an alternative to other browsers such as Microsoft Internet Explorer. As of November 2005, estimates suggest that Firefox's usage share is around 9.4% of overall browser usage (See market adoption), with its highest usage in Finland (about 30%). Since its release, Firefox has contributed to a reduction in Internet Explorer's dominant usage share.\n\nYou can download it at:\n\nhttp://www.mozilla.com/firefox/"

What is the meaning of corporate training?,"Training targets behavior directly, and might indirectly influence thought processes. This typically calls for more than a lecture format. Training might start by specifying steps needed to accomplish a particular task, but more than this is needed to assure that certain skills or procedures are learned. Participants in a training course should practice the desired behavior and receive pertinent feedback to support what's right and correct what's wrong. If feedback is given genuinely in a trusting and caring atmosphere, behavior might not only be directly improved, but one's thinking or attitude associated with the behavior might be positive. \n\nConversely, education focuses on trying to influence participants' cognitive or thinking processes. This kind of education might increase profound knowledge or critical thinking skills, and this could lead to behavior change. If so, I will have ""thought a person into behaving differently."" In other words, education targets thought processes directly, and might indirectly influence what people do."

How to be among the first results on a search engine?,"Allow me to answer this question because I AM on the top #1 spot in three different categories (first names, nursery rhymes, blonde jokes).\n\nCONTENT -- \nFirst and foremost, the content you have on your site is the most important and most crucial thing over anyting else that you can do to your site. What I advise my clients to do is to actually THINK like a search engine or if that is too abstract, think like someone who speaks a different language. \n\nAlthough search engines are getting much better at figuring out exactly what it is that is on the page, remember it is often impossible for them to decipher Java, Javascript, Flash, and other non-HTML components. This is NOT to say don't use them, just use them when they are to be used appropriately.\n\nBecause search engines ARE getting better at figuring out what is on a page, spelling and grammar are also very important. The rule of thumb is no more than three misspellings and no more than three gramatical errors on a page. Sentences should be of short to medium length and paragraphs should also be rather short.\n\nDO NOT COPY OTHER PEOPLE'S WORK. The search engines can penalize a site heavily for plagiarism.\n\nTAGS\n\nTitle Tags -- The most important of all tags is the Title tag. This is what shows up on the bars on the bottom of your computer screen. Most people make the mistake of putting their company name in the Title Tag and that is the worst thing to do (other than putting no tag at all). A Title Tag should be short and to the point and tell what the page is about and if you want to add your company name then add it at the END of the title tag not at the beginning.\n\nMeta Tags -- Meta tags were how search engines would know what was on a page... many years ago. However, with that said it is important that Meta tags are still added to your site and more importantly there are new meta tags (more than just description and keywords) that should be added to the web site such as content type and content language.\n\nMeta Description -- Meta description should start out with the SAME thing your TITLE tag says and then go into more detail. \n\nMeta Keywords -- Meta keywords are words used to describe what is in your page. First use keywords that are in the title and the description first. Then use keywords that are in the content of the page. DO NOT try to spam the search engines by using keywords that are not relevant to your content.\n\nAlt Tags -- With the advent of XHTML, ALT tags for images are now REQUIRED. The Alt tag is used for people who have their images turned off so it is important to have in the alt tag exactly what the image is but also expand on what it is. An example would be a HOME button. Instead of just having HOME as the Alt Tag, use Home -- Site Name.com. \n\nI have noticed that search engines love geography and it is good to put that in there whenever appropriate. If your company is in Kansas City, MO then put those in the Content and in the Tags.\n\nLINKS\n\nHaving links that send people to sites relevant to your site is always a good practice. People ask me where I get links and how do I get people to link to my site. The answer is very simple. First I ask. I write e-mails (NOT SPAM) to sites asking if they wish to reciprocate links with me and I also have on some of my pages a ""Link to this Page"" button so that web site owners can do it on their own.\n\nThere is great debate as to whether links to other sites that are not of the same category help, hurt, or are indifferent. From my ten years experience I have found that appropriate links DO NOT hurt your web site and could very well help in some instances.\n\nPRIVACY POLICY\n\nI won't go into much detail here but make sure you have one. So many people forget this and it is extremely important. You will NOT find a major web page that does not have a Privacy Policy attached to it.\n\nTRAFFIC\n\nObviously the more traffic you have coming to your web site the better. Not only ar"

why sometimes a white foggy line or trail made behind the airplane in the sky.?,"Contrails are caused by water in the exhaust of jet engines and then freezing in the upper atmosphere.  It's basically the same thing as a cirrus cloud.  High performance airplanes can make white trails off their wingtips or on top of their wings which is caused by low pressure which in turn reduces the amount of water that is naturally in the air that the air can hold and it forms a cloud.  An interesting side note is that long contrails = high relative humidity, short contrails = low realitve humidity."

how many times is go toget upset during a day?,"When getting upset is not accomplishing anything and interfering with your ability to function, that's too many times.\n\nYou are probably getting upset because you don't feel like you have the power to change your situation.  This will lead to depression.\n\nThe best way to save money is to put a few dollars in a savings account every time you get your check.  If you have direct deposit, talk to your bank to find out if they can do this automatically.  Another practical solution is to make a diary of what, when and how you are spending your money so that you can see where your weaknesses are.  However, overspending can happen because it makes you feel better or in control, so this may be a symptom of depression.\n\nWhen you are depressed, it's hard to feel like people will be interested in you or even like you.  This creates a barrier between you and other people.\n\nTherapy would be your best way to handle this - a therapist could guide you in making changes that will improve your life.  If you can't afford or get access to a therapist, the next best thing is a book called ""Feeling Good: the New Mood Therapy"" by David D. Burns"

what is the difference between an agreement and a contract?,"An agreement is a commitment between two parties that may or may not be legally binding. For instance, a boy can agree to take a girl to the movies, but there is no contract there.\n\nA contract is a legal agreement between two parties where there is an intent to be bound by one party and an agreement to accept the offered terms by another. The parts of a valid contract are the agreement and consideration on both sides.\n\nConsideration is something that one does that one is not legally bound to do or something that one agrees not to do that one is legally able to do. Back to the date above. The boy has agreed to take the girl to the movies, but the girl has agreed to do nothing for the boy as keeping him company (outside of paid escorts of course) is not something that has real value. So effectively the boys offer is a gift which the girl has agreed to accept."

is it good to leave a lapstop hooked up to ac power for several days?,"Nope you really should not. Most batteries are lithium ion batteries that develop a memory over time. I learned that the hard way. I always left my laptop plugged in, and in a year my battery was completely dead. From what I know, you should do a complete cycle of the battery at least once a month. That means at least once a month, drain the battery to empty and charge it up again. Dont cycle too often though because that too shortens battery life spans... Soo just keep in moderation. Dont always leave it plugged in, but dont always rely only on your battery either."

IS THERE REALLY SUCH A THING AS TRUE LOVE?,"True love is hard to find.  How you can really tell if you truely love someone is how you feel about them when they're gone.  My girlfriend went on vacation with her friends not too long after we met and the week she was gone I talked to her on the phone and we sent about 1000 text messages. I was beside myself like I had lost an arm or another very important part of my body.  When she came back, I nearly tackled her in her driveway as she did me as well.

side effects of Protonix 40mg?,"To reduce side effects of PANTOPRAZOLE (PROTONIX®), be sure to swallow the tablets whole with a drink of water (8 oz); do not crush, break, or chew. Take your doses at regular intervals. In addition, avoid frequent use of drinks with caffeine or alcohol, smoke, and illegal drugs.\n\nSome of the more severe side effects of PROTONIX® that require for you to contact your prescriber or health care professional are listed at DrugDigest.org. And these are: \n\n•fever or sore throat\n•     redness, blistering, peeling or loosening of  the skin, including inside the mouth\n•     skin rash, itching\n•     unusual bleeding or bruising\n•     unusual weakness or tiredness\n•     yellowing of the eyes or skin\n \nLess serious side effects are side effects that usually do not require medical attention, but it is recommended that you report to your prescriber or health care professional if they continue or are bothersome.

Therefore the side effects are the same.\n\nHope this answers your question,"
How is it judge after death that you go to heaven or hell?,"Think about this...I am a father of three beautiful children.  No matter what they did, didn't do or could do, I could never say to them ""I'm sending you away to eternal suffering and never want to see you again"".  Now, I'm not even close to being Divine- not nearly as loving or merciful as so many state God is; I'm human and prone to err.  So if I can forgive MY child for anything, how is it that an Omnipotent Divinity that is perfect cannot?  My belief is every soul is recycled until all the lessons needed are learned and then they are accepted into ""heaven"" or to join with The Divine.  It's the only thing that makes sense to me."
do you loose weight with birth control?,"It really depends on you individually. I know it is common for women to gain weight, but never have I seen anyone 'blow up' from starting birth control. It affects your hormones and will make you more 'developed'. Instead, I have seen (in myself and others) that your breast size can increase, as well as more curves adding to your figure. So it's not always a bad thing!"

"Why does a laser shined on brushed alumiun reflect a solid halo, when other surfaces just reflect the red dot?","The key to your answer is “brushed aluminum.”\nThe surfaces which reflect just a red dot are usually polished or very flat.  This causes them to reflect the laser light just like a mirror, with very little scattering.\nBrushed aluminum, on the other hand, has very tiny scratches on its surface.  The sides of these scratches will cause the laser light to scatter in different directions, forming the “halo.”"

Why do people need sleep?,"Nobody knows for sure; however, there are many theories.  Below is a very plasable one:\n\nJerome Siegel, of the University of California in Los Angeles, along with colleagues elsewhere, has suggested a third possibility. Writing in a special review of sleep in the current issue of Nature, Dr Siegel says that it may be related to defence against oxidative stress. Smaller animals have higher metabolic rates, and this results in the generation of higher levels of small, highly reactive molecules such as free radicals. Studies on rats show that when they are deprived of sleep, their oxidative stress increases. Dr Siegel proposes that animals with higher metabolic rates need more sleep to interrupt and protect against this kind of oxidative damage, as well as repairing any damage done."
Virtual Administrative Assistant/Answering Service?,"Starting as a virtual assistant is a great idea. (I know, I started that way several years ago.) I do recommend that any of those new to the industry consider your best areas of service before launching and specialize from the start.\n\nUnless you are planning on doing the video conferencing locally, I think you may find that to be a bit difficult to pull off. Not because it can't be done, but because you would need to work with clients that are able to set up the hardware and software on their own sites. Usually, people hire you to solve problems -- and the video conferencing has a serious potential to CREATE problems, especially long distance.\n\nBefore you launch a VA practice, research the name you plan to use for the business (an Internet search is a great place to begin) because you don't want to use a name that's already in use (and possibly trademark protected).\n\nThen consider your strengths and weaknesses. Do an honest self-assessment to determine what services you can offer that will benefit your clients while emphasising your skills, background and education without requiring you to delve into areas that are not your best.\n\nIf you are going to be a VA, a website is essential. If creating a good website isn't your strength -- hire it out or barter services with someone else who can create an effective site.\n\nMarket yourself everywhere you go (business cards at the ready). And, always look for opportunities to talk about what you do -- this is most easily achieved by asking others about their own work (they will usually return the favor). Although Virtual Assistance is a known term in many circles, it still seems to create a bit of interest in casual conversation -- use that to your advantage by begin able to answer questions about the industry in general and your own business in particular.\n\nRead articles by others on the topic of running your own VA business.\n\nBe sure you are willing to put in the hours required to start and run a business. It's not as simple as announcing and starting to work. You will need to research your market, talk with people in the business, talk with people in your target industry/industries, read, research on the web and... PLAN.\n\nBest wishes to you as you begin your endeavor. It's a great career option brought to you by this age of technology!"

Can I run Ubuntu (Linux) on the same iBook as I run Mac OS 10.4?,"The good news is that you can install Ubuntu Linux as they have a PowerPC version available, Macs can't use the x86 version.  Ubuntu and most Linux distros come with bootloaders which will allow you to dual boot OSX and the Linux distro, in this case Ubuntu.  The Ubuntu installer should be able to partition and format your drive while keeping the OSX installation intact.  Once you have installed Ubuntu you should be able to select from either Ubuntu or OSX to boot with.  Ubuntu shouldn't take more than 3GB for the install but you will want to give it at least a 10GB partition to work with.\n\nI know next to nothing about dual booting a Mac but that is how it would work on Windows."

How did they come up with the 5 rings as the symbol for the Olympics?,"I'm not sure how to interpret your ""hint"", but Wikipedia says:\n\nThe Olympic movement uses many symbols, most of them representing Coubertin's ideas and ideals. The best known symbol is probably that of the Olympic Rings. These five intertwined rings represent the unity of five continents. They appear in five colors on a white field on the Olympic Flag. These colors, white (for the field), red, blue, green, yellow, and black were chosen such that each nation had at least one of these colors in its national flag. The flag was adopted in 1914, but the first Games at which it was flown were Antwerp, 1920. It is hoisted at each celebration of the Games.\n\nAre you positive your hinter is reliable? Maybe they meant how the colors (or which there are also five) do not represent the continents?"
Where do we go when we die?,"Hi,\n\nI believe there is such things as absolute truth, variations only stand when different people believe differently.\n\nWhere do we go when we die? All brings back to the very reason for existence, very reason why God created mankind. (N.B. I do believe in God) Did God created man so that he could spend his time leisuring, get drunk, fool around, have intercourse for fun etc?\n\nYou asked for opinion and this is mine: No, God did not create us just for fun without any particular reason. The Supreme ONE must have had a cause for all of us. As for me, I believe that we are all created to 'enslave' ourselves to Him. Life is a test, and only His worthy subjects will be rewarded with heaven in hereafter.\n\nSurely, He must have provided us with a manual for us to navigate ourselves in life i.e. finding the true path to Him. Like we when buy a car, the manufacturer provides us with the manual. So it is up to us to look into the manual, or rather to look FOR the manual in any old 'drawer' that we might have misplaced it.\n\nGood luck. May God bless you."

what is orgasam?,"An orgasm, also known as a sexual climax, is a pleasurable physical, psychological or emotional response to prolonged sexual stimulation. It is often accompanied by a notable physiological reaction, such as ejaculation, blushing or spasm and may be followed by aftershocks.\n\nIn a human male orgasm, there are rapid, rhythmic contractions of the prostate, urethra and the muscles at the base of the penis, which (in the adult) typically force stored semen to be expelled through the penis's urethral opening. This is referred to as ejaculation. The process usually takes from 3 to 10 seconds. The process is usually, but not always, extremely pleasurable. Orgasm is generally induced by direct stimulation of the penis. Some men experience heightened orgasm by direct stimulation of the prostate through the perineum.\n\nFollowing ejaculation, a refractory period usually occurs during which a man cannot have another orgasm. This period can be anywhere from less than a minute to over half a day, depending on age and other individual factors. A very few cases have been reported of men who appear to have no refractory period at all. Scientists theorize that a pituitary gland disorder or difference may cause this unique ability.\n\nIn a human female orgasm, orgasm is preceded by moistening of the vaginal walls, and an enlargement of the clitoris due to increased blood flow trapped in the clitoris's spongy tissue. Some women exhibit a sex flush; a reddening of the skin over much of the body due to increased blood flow to the skin. As a woman comes closer to having orgasm, the clitoris moves inward under the clitoral hood, and the labia minora (minor lips) becomes darker. As orgasm becomes imminent, the vagina decreases in size by about 30% and also becomes congested with blood. The uterus then experiences muscular contractions. A woman experiences full orgasm when her uterus, vagina and pelvic muscles undergo a series of rhythmic contractions. The majority of women consider these contractions to be very pleasurable.\n\nAfter the orgasm is over, the clitoris re-emerges from under the clitoral hood, and returns to its normal size in less than 10 minutes. Unlike men, women either do not have a refractory period or have a very short one, and thus can experience a second orgasm soon after the first; some women can even follow this with a third, or even fourth orgasm; this is known as having multiple orgasms. After the initial orgasm, subsequent climaxes may be stronger or more pleasurable as the stimulation accumulates. Research shows that about 13% of women experience multiple orgasms; a larger number may be able to experience this with the proper stimulation (such as a vibrator) and frame of mind. However, some women's clitorises are too sensitive after orgasm, making additional stimulation painful; they are probably not able to experience multiple orgasms"

What really caused Bush to lose popularity??,"George Bush Jr. could not be the CEO of any major corporation in this country.\nHe lacks the leadership qualities to bring diverse groups of people together. He lacks the ability to analyze a problem taking into consideration other points of view. He is totally incompetent to run Texas, let alone the greatest Democracy of all time.\n  His election to the Presidency, although still in doubt, was the most absurd choice in our history. There were hundreds of men and women who could do the job and we the people picked him.\n  We knew about his past problems with alcohol, his mediocre college record, and his failure as a business man and we still said, ""Here take the job as head of the free world and see what you can do with it>""\n   I think that a critical mass of horrible things happened that has caused the American people to feel terribly guilty that they allowed this man to be their President and even re-elected him. \n   His appearance as a strong leader has given way to being a spoiled brat who has a stubborn streak. His advisers told him to act like a leader and I must say that if you were not born to be one, it is hard thing to do. \n  I think there were three last straws. Terry Schiavo, Katrina, and Harriet Meiers. These events along with rising gas prices and loss of pensions and jobs by millions of people are driving the heartland crazy.\n  Three more years....Unless Congress can neutralize his poison...instead of rubber stamping his policies. Either Democrats must be elected or Republicans must show some backbone and stand for something again."

does stress cause having a bowel movement to be harder?,"from what I learned at my nutrition school when the body is under stress,  it's called in anthropological terms, the 'fight or flight' syndrome.  whereby your body thinks it is under a threat of some kind and reacts accordingly.  even if in modern times most of what we perceive as a threat is psychological whereas in primitive times we were being chased by tigers!! each one is a different stressor but your body only knows that it feels threatened and creates the same response, tiger or being late to work.  real or otherwise.   \nyour body then produces stress, it copes with whatever this stress is by shutting down diffferent systems so that it can survive most efficiently.  Either by running away or fighting the tiger(metaphorically or literally).  digestion is absolutely one of them.  when in a stressful situation your bowels are the last thing you need to think about if per say, primatively speaking, you are being chased by a tiger.  some people evacuate immediately: diarrhea or hold it in until they are safe: constipation.   if they are under constant stress, then the body perceives this as a signal to continue coping as it has been which could cause constant constipation and/or diarrhea or other problems such as hormonal imbalances(because when you are super-stressed for example having a baby is the last thing your body can handle), weight gain or loss etc..  \nSuggestions:\n(I have a theory, see if it fits).  I have noticed that people who are prone to consipation tend to be holder-oners.  Those who have a hard time lettting go. Whereas people who are prone to diarrhea tend to be letter-goers.  Those who have a harder time facing things and move fast to avoid things.  Both by personal experience and talking with people who suffer from both of these issues.  Take a look at your life, your material belongings and see which one fits...if not.  Then my theory is off)\nYou can look into is meditation or tai chi for calm stress reduction or even martial arts to get some anger and aggression out...stress reduction at it's funnest and finest!!! \nCalcium/magnesium is good for nerve balancing and muscle contraction and relaxation.  make sure you have the right ratio.  especially magnesium( most of America are deficient).\n\ngood luck, \nhang in there...\nhope this helps!"
Why are tennis bracelets called tennis bracelets?,"Tennis bracelets, also known as diamond line bracelets, are thin, elegant pieces of wrist jewelry that feature a symmetrical pattern of diamonds. Unlike charm bracelets, they lack pendants or mementos. \nAccording to numerous web sites, such as Professional Jeweler Magazine and Normans of Mosman, tennis star Chris Evert was known for her diamond line bracelets. She lost one during the 1987 U.S. Open, and the game had to be temporarily halted while she prowled the court for it. The ""tennis bracelet"" incident sparked a new name for the item, as well as a huge jewelry trend. \n\nFollowing in the footsteps of the great Chris Evert, last year Serena Williams wore a custom-design Harry Winston tennis bracelet at the U.S. Open. According to the press release, ""Winston added an extra secure safety clasp to the bracelet to make sure the flexible and fluid piece will stay securely on Williams' 7 and one-half inch wrist."" \n\nRegards\n\nParadiso"

What are some good ways to stop smoking cigarettes.?,"Methods of quitting\nCold Turkey method\nNicotine Replacement Methods (Patch, Gum, Nasal Spray)\nBehavioral Methods\nCognitive Therapy Method\nOther Methods and adjuncts (acupuncture, hypnosis, medications)\nFactors for relapse while in the process of quitting\nPredictors of successful quitting\nCold turkey method\nThis is the prefered method used by so called self changers, people who quit on their own and without any nicotine replacement by gum, patch or nasal spray. Little is known about this method as any research study would influence the results as it would no longer be a spontaneous process. Strong motivational factors are believed to play the foremost role in successful quitting using this method.\nNicotine replacement therapy\nIn this method the nicotine delivered by the cigarette is replaced with nicotine delivered through the skin (transdermal nicotine or nicotine patch) , the nasal mucosa (nicotine nasal spray) or the buccal mucosa (nicotine chewing gum). Several well designed clinical trials have shown the efficacy and safety of nicotine replacement the goal of which is to reduce cravings and ease withdrawal symptoms.\n\n      Transdermal Nicotine Patches\n      The nicotine patch is usually well tolerated, and provides constant, steady nicotine blood levels throughout the day and night when worn. They are quite simple to use, help prevent weight gain, cravings, and nicotine withdrawal symptoms and are socially acceptable\n      Side Effects of the patch\n      Patches may cause a local skin reaction,and insomnia with nightmares may occur.\n\n      Overdosing in nicotine is possible, especially if a person smokes while wearing the patch. Smoking while wearing a patch is dangerous and may lead to stroke or heart attack.\n      Use of the patch requires abstinence from tobacco products...i.e. no smoking or chewing tobacco.\n\n      Cost\n      Patches are expensive and cost close to $100 per month of use.\n      However bear in mind that smoking 1 ppd costs $1000 per year, which multipied by 10 years approximates the price of a car.\n      Some people are tempted to cut the patch to save money. Nicoderm is the only patch that can be cut without destroying the patch's ability to deliver nicotine through the skin to the bloodstream reliably.. It is not unsafe to cut the other patches as far as I know. However cutting the other patches impairs the transdermal drug delivery system, and may not provide reliable blood levels of nicotine. the key word here is reliable.\n\n      The total dose of nicotine in the patch does not correlate at a milligram to milligram equivalency to the dose delivered to the bloodstream. The drug delivery system of the patch ensures that nicotine is transported thru the skin at a constant rate, and e ach manufacturer uses a different patented technology to do this. Only a portion of the total nicotine contained in the patch is transported thru the skin. Individual differences in skin thickness, location of the applied patch, and other related factors play a role in the total dose delivered.\n      3 Step Tapering Method of using the patch\n          o The 21 mg patch is worn daily for 6-8 weeks for quitters who smoked an average of 1 ppd ( 2 ppd quitters may require 2 patches to alleviate cravings and withdrawal symptoms)\n          o The 14 mg patch is then worn daily for the next 2 to 4 weeks if the ex smoker remains confident in his or her ability to not smoke and if urges or cravings to smoke are controlled.\n          o The 7 mg patch is then worn for 2-4 weeks if the same criteria as above are met.\n          o In the absence of cravings and urge to smoke the patch is then stopped entirely.\n\n      It is important to individualize the tapering method . . . Some people require longer periods of use, others shorter. If cravings intensify , return to the next higher dose of the patch.\n\n      Types of nicotine patches\n            Nicotrol\n            15,10,5 mg 16 hour patches\n     "
How good are Dell XPS desktops?,"I helped a longtime occasional client with the setup of an XPS 600 within the last month - she'd been on Windows 98 about 2 years longer than she should have been, so it was ripe for her to upgrade.  \n\nPhysically, the machine is pretty imposing - it's slightly taller than the standard Optiplex or Dimension tower, and taller than the minitowers you find in most stores (CompUSA, Best Buy, Circuit City, etc.) but the extra size does provide a lot of space for internal devices, many of which you can have preinstalled and configured by Dell.  It's also pretty wide - wider than her old tower by 2-3 inches.  \n\nBecause my client wanted several measures of reliability and backup, we had the system preconfigured with a mirrored RAID array (2x250GB HDs), a DVD+/-RW drive for ad hoc backups, and an external harddrive for scheduled backups that can backup the entire drive.  Since she also wanted to be able to do graphics editing in the future, we got the machine with a GeForce 6800 graphics card (leaving open the option to add a second card in SLI configuration at a later date, if needed, though if they'd offered the option earlier, I would have recommended the 7800 GTX) and got a good 5.1 sound card installed as well (hooked up to old speakers, but WTF - it's her money) and 2GB RAM, with room to go up to 4GB if needed.\n\nFor external expansion, it comes with 8 USB 2.0 ports, and 3(?) firewire ports.  6 of the USB ports are in the back, with 2 firewire, while 3 are in front, behind a small panel.  We actually used most of the USB ports while setting up most of her peripherals, but you can always add a USB 2.0 high speed hub if you have that many additional devices.    If you have older keyboards and/or mice you're fond of that are PS/2, the machine does have ports for those as well.   (My client is still using a 10-year old keyboard from her old 486 PC that ran Windows 95.  I think it's Dorian Grey's keyboard, and has a printout of itself aging in a closet somewhere.)  If you have an old parallel printer though, it does NOT have a parallel port, so you'll need a parallel to USB cable or you'll need to order a parallel port card.\n\nFrom a software standpoint, the machine is very nice to use - everything runs very smoothly (in part thanks to the dual core CPU) with the only hiccup being AOL, which was preinstalled, but still has problems even in version 9.0 with playing well with Internet Explorer, since AOL uses the IE kernel for its own browsing component - running the two at the same time caused problems.\n\nAll in old, I'd say this is an excellent PC, competitive with other high end PCs from boutique manufacturers.  Where it falls short is the ability to get Dell on the phone - even with ""a separate queue just for XPS users"", we were on hold for close to an hour without ever speaking with a representative when trying to find out whether the shipped PC actually matched the original specs fro when the PC was ordered through the website.  Smaller PC vendors, such as Falcon-Northwest, VoodooPC, Monarch, and ABS are much better about being responsive to customers after the sale than Dell was here.  Aside from that, it's an excellent PC."

which is a most important festival for christians? Christmas Or Easter?,"Easter celebrates the raising of Jesus from the dead, this is the actual point at which the Christian Church began as Jesus appeared to his disciples:\n\nMatthew chapter 28 (TEV)\n\n16 The eleven disciples went to the hill in Galilee where Jesus had told them to go. 17 When they saw him, they worshiped him, even though some of them doubted. 18 Jesus drew near and said to them, ""I have been given all authority in heaven and on earth. 19 Go, then, to all peoples everywhere and make them my disciples: baptize them in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, 20 and teach them to obey everything I have commanded you. And I will be with you always, to the end of the age.""\n\nSo as undoubtedly important as Christmas is marking the birth of our Lord, Easter is thefoundation of the Church, and our promise of everlasting life in Heaven."

what is islam?,"The first thing that one should know and clearly understand about Islam is what the word ""Islam"" itself means. The religion of Islam is not named after a person as in the case of Christianity which was named after Jesus Christ, Buddhism after Gotama Buddha, Confucianism after Confucius, and Marxism after Karl Marx. Nor was it named after a tribe like Judaism after the tribe of Judah and Hinduism after the Hindus. Islam is the true religion of ""Allah"" and as such, its name represents the central principle of Allah's ""God's"" religion; the total submission to the will of Allah ""God"". The Arabic word ""Islam"" means the submission or surrender of one's will to the only true god worthy of worship ""Allah"" and anyone who does so is termed a ""Muslim"", The word also implies ""peace"" which is the natural consequence of total submission to the will of Allah. Hence, it was not a new religion brought by Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) I in Arabia in the seventh century, but only the true religion of Allah re-expressed in its final form. \n\nIslam is the religion which was given to Adam, the first man and the first prophet of Allah, and it was the religion of all the prophets sent by Allah to mankind. The name of God's religion lslam was not decided upon by later generations of man. It was chosen by Allah Himself and clearly mentioned in His final revelation to man. In the final book of divine revelation, the Qur'aan, Allah states the following:\n\n\n""This day have I perfected your religion for you, completed My favour upon you, and have chosen for you Islam as your religion"". (Soorah Al-Maa'idah 5:3)\n\n\n""If anyone desires a religion other than Islam (submission to Allah (God) never will It be accepted of Him"" (Soorah Aal'imraan 3:85)\n\n\n""Abraham was not a Jew nor Christian; but an upright Muslim."" (Soorah Aal'imraan 3:67)\n\n              Islam is the way of life for those who believe in God and want to live a life in worship and obedience to none but God. The reward is forgiveness from God and an everlasting life in the Heaven."
How many people on here know about HLHS?,"Hypoplastic left heart syndrome is a term used to describe a group of closely related rare heart defects that are present at birth. Hypoplastic left heart syndrome is characterized by the underdevelopment (hypoplasia) of the chambers on the left side of the heart (i.e., left atrium and ventricle). In addition, the mitral valve, which connects these chambers to each other, is usually abnormally narrow (stenosis) or closed (atresia) and the aortic valve, which connects the heart to the major vessels that lead from the lungs (ascending aorta), may also be narrow or closed. Infants with hypoplastic left heart syndrome also have an abnormally narrow ascending aorta."

Is Iraq an artifical country?,"That's a bit of a loaded question, because it depends on how you consider the British role in the dissolution of the Ottoman Empire at the end of World War I.  Prior to that war, the Ottoman Empire had evolved over several hundred years, at times encompassing most of southeastern Europe (Romania, Bulgaria, the states formerly composing Yugoslavia), modern Turkey, Iraq, Jordan, all of the Arabian Peninsula, Eqypt, and much of northern Africa.   at the end of the World War I, the Empire was broken up, and most of the administration and nation-building in the area was performed by the British.   While Iran, Saudi Arabia, and Jordan were created based on regional figures of authority (the Shah, the Saudi royal family, and the Hussein royal family (no relation to Saddam)) the other nations had borders drawn largely for convenience.  Some good books are the subject are linked below."

how many people died in Hiroshima and Nagasaki durring WWII?,"That is an almost impossible question to answer.\n\nYou are not asking about the attack, but during the entire war.  And both cities were under attack from 1943 on.\n\nHiroshima was a major source of industry, making both aircraft and other munitions for the Japanese War industry.  Nagasaki was one of the major ports of Japan, and had one of the largest Naval Bases in the city.  So both had been subjected to bombardment for over a year before the war ended.\n\nA better question might be ""How many would have died if they were not bombed?"""

Substances in soot usually are polycyclical aromatic compounds, or heterocyclical compounds like furanes.\n\nIn the case of impure fuels, additional side products can be found.

"What is the legal definition of ""war""?","A state of open, armed, often prolonged conflict carried on between nations, states, or parties. \nThe period of such conflict. \nThe techniques and procedures of war; military science. \nIn an active state of conflict or contention.\n\n\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n[Middle English warre, from Old North French werre, of Germanic origin. See wers- in Indo-European Roots.] \nWord History: The chaos of war is reflected in the semantic history of the word war. War can be traced back to the Indo-European root *wers-, “to confuse, mix up.” In the Germanic family of the Indo-European languages, this root gave rise to several words having to do with confusion or mixture of various kinds. One was the noun *werza-, “confusion,” which in a later form *werra- was borrowed into Old French, probably from Frankish, a largely unrecorded Germanic language that contributed about 200 words to the vocabulary of Old French. From the Germanic stem came both the form werre in Old North French, the form borrowed into English in the 12th century, and guerre (the source of guerrilla) in the rest of the Old French-speaking area. Both forms meant “war.” Meanwhile another form derived from the same Indo-European root had developed into a word denoting a more benign kind of mixture, Old High German wurst, meaning “sausage.” Modern German Wurst was borrowed into English in the 19th century, first by itself (recorded in 1855) and then as part of the word liverwurst (1869), the liver being a translation of German Leber in Leberwurst."

How can a person get rid of a sty (in their eye) ?,"Styes are very irritating and painful and the temptation is great to squeeze them to get rid of them. But this is not recommended as it will only worsen the infection possibly causing it to spread to other parts of the eyelid. Squeezing a stye is counterproductive and should be avoided. \n\n\nTo soften the head on the stye and to ease the pain, use warm compresses several times a day. Take a clean wash cloth and run it under very warm, but not hot, water and place it on the infected eye for 10 minutes. Do this between three and six times a day. \n\n\nMake sure you wash your hands thoroughly after using a compress or even touching the stye. The staphylococcus bacteria in the stye can spread causing more styes. Do not rub an eye with a stye. If you touch the infected eye and then touch your other eye, you will spread the infection to the other eye. It is not uncommon for a child to have a bout with several styes in their eyes over several months from spreading the infection. \n\n\nStyes should go away in about 3 or 4 days. If, however, the stye does not go away and seems to be getting worse see a doctor. You may need an opthalmalic antibiotic solution. \n\nFor more information and more solutions, check the website below. Good luck!!!"

What year did Wahoo Mcdaniels die?,"April 19th, 2002\n\n\nHOUSTON (AP) -- Wahoo McDaniel, the former pro football player who became one of pro wrestling's most flamboyant figures, has died of complications from renal failure and diabetes. He was 63. \n\nMcDaniel, who lost both of his kidneys about 4 1/2 years ago, died Thursday night at Cy-Fair Medical Clinic in Houston, his oldest daughter said. He'd been in failing health in recent years, often undergoing kidney dialysis. McDaniel was on a waiting list to receive a kidney transplant. \n\nHe was born in Bernice, La., on June 19, 1938, and was a schoolboy football star at Midland (Texas) High School in the 1950s. \n\nMcDaniel moved on to the University of Oklahoma, where he lettered at linebacker from 1957-59. He holds the school record for the longest punt with a 91-yarder against Iowa State in 1958. \n\n""He was a wild, crazy Indian,"" daughter Nicky Rowe said Friday. ""He was bigger than life. He was just amazing."" \n\nThe 5-foot-11, 280-pound McDaniel was selected by Los Angeles in the second round of the American Football League draft in 1960. He bounced around the AFL for much of his eight-year career, spending time with the Houston Oilers, Denver Broncos, New York Jets and, finally, the Miami Dolphins. \n\nBy the end of his football career, McDaniel had already established himself as a big name in minor-league wrestling circuits around the country. But as a member of the Jets, McDaniel began to headline wrestling events at Madison Square Garden with the help of the arena's owner, Sonny Werblin. Werblin also was involved in the ownership of the Jets. \n\nMcDaniel capitalized on the stardom from his gridiron days to make a smooth transition into full-time wrestling. He became one of the country's most popular and beloved wrestlers during the '60s, '70s and '80s. \n\n""He was one of the first to make transition from football to wrestling,"" said Bob Ryder, who operates the wrestling Web site, 1wrestling.com. ""When he found out he was making more money as a wrestler than a football player, he gave up football. He was such a big star."" \n\nOver the course of his 30-year wrestling career, McDaniel had memorable battles with wrestling stars such as ""Nature Boy"" Ric Flair, ""Rowdy"" Roddy Piper and Sgt. Slaughter. He won several titles before retiring in 1989. \n\n""I wrestled all the top wrestlers in the world, and I traveled a lot,"" McDaniel said once. ""I got to see a lot of places that I probably wouldn't have gotten to see."" \n\nHe was also fiercely proud of his Chickasaw Indian heritage and always entered the ring with his trademark elaborate feather headdress. \n\nShortly after retiring, health problems limited McDaniel to one of his newfound passions -- golf. He lived in Charlotte, N.C., until recently, but moved to Houston to live with his daughter and son-in-law as his health began to deteriorate. \n\n""He also became a mentor to a lot of other wrestlers,"" Rowe said. ""He was so famous, I just didn't realize it until now. We've got so many calls from people."" \n\nRowe said the family plans to cremate McDaniel's body and scatter the ashes over a lake near Del Rio, which was once the favorite fishing spot for her father and grandfather. They also plan to hold a memorial service for McDaniel in Midland next week. \n\nHe is survived by two daughters and a son."

Which National League baseball player was the Rookie of the Year in 1947 and MVP in 1949?,"The answer is Jackie Robinson.  In 1947, he became the first African-American player in Major League Baseball.  He was honored as Rookie of the YEar (then only awarded to one player).  Two years later, he was given the National League MVP for a stellar season.\n\nJackie Robinson was a pioneer in the MLB and his memory is still kept alive becuase is his number is retired league-wide."
why do we die?,"The short answer is that certain of our cells are designed to divide only a certain number of times.  Those researching DNA believe that each time a cell divides (and its DNA divides) a small portion at the end of the DNA may be lost.  A longer answer would try to explain why we die too soon but that gets into diet, exercise, smoking, drinking, driving too fast, and poor self esteem; but that would take a book.\n\nLive long and be happy."

The more serious complications are more common in people who have a difficult time controlling their blood sugars with medications (glycemic control)."

What is the color of the bear?,"If it falls down from the top of the cliff to the ground 200 meters below, it'll hit the ground in 6.413696282 seconds if it doesn't strike any object on the way down.  If all it did was to trip and hit the ground still on top of the cliff and took 20 seconds to do so, it probably struggled to remain up (on either 2 or 4 paws) and probably will remain its original color.\n\nHowever, since the bear spent 20 seconds falling a distance that should have taken it < 7 seconds, then it probably fought its way down, bouncing from boulder to boulder, treee to tree, as it fell.  Therefore I expect the bear to be colored some brown (from dirt), some green (from brush), and some red (from torn skin & fur)."

what if person w/ legal custody dont give permission for me to claim dep.even though he lived w/ me for 1 yr.?,"They don't have to. If you have a divorce decree that gives you rights to claim a dependant (sometimes annually or every other year, or not at all) then the custodial parent must honor that. In fact you can file with the deduction by providing copies of the signature page and the tax portion of the decree. If you do not have a divorce decree stating you have rights to claim....you have NO right to claim without the permission of the custodial parent who will have to provide form 8332.\n\n*** I'll qualify that, by saying the other person has legal custody, that is an indication that the child lived with the custodial parent as well for half or more of the year and that that parent paid for at least half of the support of said child...or that the parent has sole custody of the child....That all being true...you cannot claim the child without permission of the custodial parent.

It sounds like there's a part of you that would occasionally like to be able to lie back, let go, and let somebody else take over. \n\nRape fantasies are also common among women who have sexual shame or inhibitions from their childhood or past relationships. These women often enjoy the rape fantasy because they are not choosing to have sex and therefore are not accountable for any ""sins."" \n\nFurthermore, the fantasy centers on a man who is so caught up in his passion and desire that he has to take you now. The idea of that level of passion is very exciting for many women."""

People want to be free in Iraq and that was not true in Vietnam."
Which is better for your body: orange or milk?,"People's digestive system is not actually set up to process milk very well. Although you get a good dose of calcium and vitamin D from milk, you can get these things from other sources, without running your system down. Milk and milk products can enhance allergies and intolerances to food and other outside stimuli, and increase mucus production. I don't know if orange juice is 'better' per se, because the vitamins it provides are completely different. I can say your body processes it easier, it gives you a bunch of vitamins, if the juice doesn't have sugary additives it isn't as fattening, and it doesn't have all the nasty side effects that milk can have, (whether you notice them or not... in fact you probably wouldn't notice them unless you cut milk out of your diet and then tried putting it back in). So I guess my vote is Orange Juice."
How do fire act in 'zero gravity'?,"If you start a fire in zero gravity then (as long as it is not against the wall of the space craft) it will burn as a sphere.

What is the best medication to fight Multiple Sclerosis?,"Holy christmas (literally!)... the last poster, be careful.\n\nI was diagnosed in 1999.  I didn't start taking medications until 2004 (had a bit of denial there)...\nI got a flare-up that forced me to think harder about my future (and a great fiance to boot!).\n\nA lot of people go on the interferons, and Glatiramer acetate, which is what I'm on.  When I decided what to go on, I thought about what I'd have to do for it.  I was a bit worried about giving myself a shot, and I figured that I would need to have the least intrusive method of medication delivery... so I decided subcutaneous (just under the skin).  That cut down the list of interferons... \n\nThen I thought about side effects, a lot of the interferons have flu like symptoms.  When I started the meds, I was feeling weak, pins and needly, and limpy.  I said, do I want to have a cold on top of that.  No siree.\n\nI mean, you really have to talk to your NEURO, and what (s)he recommends.  It just so happened that the first NEURO in 1999, recommended Avonex as he was drinking out of an Avonex branded mug (no foolin!).  That is what turned me off from the med idea in the first place.  My SECOND neuro, he asked me my concerns, and we decided on Copaxone.  Yes, it's daily, but it's under the skin, and it just has local reactions for me as a side effect.\n\nI WAS PETRIFIED of giving myself these shots.  Many of the companies (my drugs, included) have autojectors, so you don't even have to see the needle.  Copaxone (or my doctor, I can't remember, it was so long ago!)... required me to have a home care nurse there the first time to show me how to administer the drugs.  I gave it to myself without hesitation the first time!  I am a little wary of someone else doing it (though she had recommended that my fiance learn how, too).\n\nResult?  Well, there's not much to say!  (that's a good thing)... my original symptoms had faded, and I don't know if that was the copaxone or what.  I've been on it since 2/2004 (wow!  going on 2 years soon!), and I have NO NEW LESIONS!  boy, that's more exciting than I thought it was going to be.\n\nNow, your milage WILL vary, and unlike my first time experience, you will LIKELY have to go through a few drugs to find one you like.\n\nGood luck to you!"
why is the sky blue?,"The sky appears blue because the gases(mainly nitrogen and oxygen) present in our atmosphere vibrate at a specific frequency.  From the light that we can see, ie.. blue, green, red, yellow...etc, the the higher frequency colors are absorbed more by the atmosphere than the lower frequency(actually they're scattered, they still make it to us but indirectly whereas the yellowish color of the sun is more direct).  So blue, green, and violet(violet having the shortest wavelength) are absorbed by the atmosphere, while red, yellow and orange are allowed through.   The color of blue that we perceive the sky varies from day to day based on the content of gases present and the frequency that they vibrate.  It works the same way as light passing through a blue balloon, except in this case the balloon is our atmosphere."

What is the slowest possible internet speed?,"To the best of my knowledge, there's no theoretical bottom limit to the speed of an internet connection, although individual programs may give up after a period of time, and assume that the message they were trying to send has been lost in transit.\n\nTo illustrate this, I've linked the (as far as I know, unused) proposal for transmitting IP packets (one of the fundamental units of data on the internet) via trained pigeons.\n\nWhile the attached proposal is certainly geek-humor, I hope it illustrates my point - as slow as your net is, it could always get even slower."

Has an organ been cloned as of yet?,"At this point, it isn't possible to grow organs, but at some point this may be possible. The idea would be to take some cells and ""instruct"" them, by giving the right amounts of certain molecules, to grow into certain types of cells that would form an organ.\n\nIt will be easier to make replacement cells of a certain type, such as bone marrow, or nerve cells, than to make a whole organ that has many types of cells and a complex architecture. We're still trying to learn all the signals that go into telling cells how to become one type versus another, so there is still a ways to go.\n\nThe stem cell issue comes in because most cells in the adult have already decided what they will be when they grow up, and they can't go back and become anything different. Stem cells haven't decided yet, so they could be ""told"" what to be, when we know all the instructions. The research is very slow now in the United States, because of limitations from the government, but other countries are pulling ahead nicely (and some of our best scientists are leaving to go to those places)."
use ur heart or brain??,I too am in love and struggle with this same question. I can offer my solution. Use both. Enjoy the endorphine rush of the feeling of love ( which is the heart so to speak.)

how to link an Access database to a C++ application?,"There are a variety of ways to connect to an Access database from within a C++ app.\n\nThe oldest and most widely compatible is ODBC. It's not as fully featured as some other technologies, but it's the standard minimum compliance of pretty much everything.\n\nIf you're running on Windows, I'd suggest using ADO or ADO.NET. They're virtually the same interface, ADO.NET has some features that ADO doesn't have, but I'm not sure it's completely compatible with C++."
Why would there be a difference in content from the same site with different browsers?,"Because every browser has its own memory of what pages looked like, and its own policies (set by you in the Preferences) for when to use that memory.

Why is marijuana illegal and alcohol still legal?,"Because alcohol contains only alcohol. The effects upon the brain are well known and documented. Marijuana, on the other hand, has hundreds of chemicals, each possibly interacting with the other(s) in ways not yet researched. For instance, a well-known drug test involves snipping off a bit of your hair. if you smoked pot even six months ago, traces of it remain detectible as part of the hair itself, vs. the kidneys elimination if all traces of alcohol from the body within 48 hours. Also, it is suspected that pot may alter the body's DNA, so long-term chronic effects are still unknown."

modern education?,"Who would want to teach?  The slogan ""Teacher is soo rewarding"" isn't going to cut it.  It's a job.

how big is the moon?,"How big is the moon?\nThe moon is about 2,000 miles across. \n\nHow far is it from Earth to the moon?\nIt is about 250,000 miles from Earth to the moon. \n\nHow old is the moon?\nThe moon is the same age as the Earth and the rest of the solar system — about 4.5 billion years. Our solar system was all formed at that time. \n\nHow did the moon form?\nWe think that the moon and Earth formed at about the same time, back when our whole solar system was formed. Earth was forming from many chunks of rock and icy material. Possibly a big chunk hit the new Earth and knocked loose a big piece, which became the moon. \n\nHow hot and cold does it get on the moon?\nAs you may have learned, the moon doesn't have any air around it. The air that surrounds our earth acts as a nice blanket to keep us warm and comfy! But the moon, since it doesn't have this blanket, gets much colder than the earth — and much hotter than the earth. On the side of the moon that the sun is shining on, the temperature reaches 260°Fahrenheit! That is hotter than boiling. On the dark side of the moon, it gets very cold, -280° Fahrenheit. \n\nWhat is the surface of the moon like?\nThe surface of the moon has about two inches of dust. Much of this dust has fallen to the moon from the spaces between the planets over the last several billions years. It probably feels pretty soft. You can see this in some pictures taken by the astronauts of their footprints on the moon. \n\nHow many holes are in the moon?\nWe call those holes ""craters."" They are the places where many years ago meteors hit the surface of the moon and put dents into it. There are thousands of big craters, but even more little ones. There are probably millions of little craters on the moon! Some are only an inch or so across. \n\nWhy does the moon have big rocks?\nThe moon is made up of various kinds of rocks. These rocks are fairly similar to the rocks on earth. But on earth, we have wind and rain that help wear the rocks down into sand and dirt. There is no air or wind on the moon, so the rocks don't get worn down as they do on the earth. \n\nHow many moons are there all together?\nEarth has only one moon. If you count all the moons around all the planets in our solar system, there are 61 (Earth has one, Mars has two, Jupiter has 16, Saturn has 18, Uranus has 15, Neptune has 8, and Pluto has one). There may be more that we haven't discovered yet! \n\nWhy does the moon change its shape (as in full, half, and quarter moon)?\nThe bright part of the moon is the part that the sun is shining on. This is like daytime on earth. The dark part is in shadow, like night on earth. Now the moon goes around the earth once every 29 days (approximately). \n\nAt new moon, the moon and the sun are on the same side of Earth. We see the part of the moon that is in shadow, so the moon is dark. Then the moon moves around in its orbit. At first quarter, it has gone one-fourth of the way around Earth. Now we can see part of the moon that is sunlit, but part still in shadow. Note that if the sun is setting in the west, the bright part of the moon is on the side toward the sun and the dark part is away. \n\nAbout a week later, the moon has moved halfway around its orbit. Now it is on the opposite side of Earth, away from the sun. Now we see only the sunlit side — that is the full moon. Note that if the sun is setting in the west, the moon is just rising in the east. \n\nAbout a week later, the moon has moved now three-fourths of the way around in its circle around Earth. Once again only part of the moon is sunlit and part is dark. Now you can see the moon in the morning, and note that once again the sunlit side is on the side towards the sun, and the shadow side away. Another week and we are back to the new moon. \n\nIt's easier to demonstrate if you have a ball to represent the moon and a flashlight for the sun. Have someone stand several feet away, holding the flashlight so it shines on the bal"

If we all supposeably came from Adam & Eve why is it that there is so many race's?

It is true that certain distiguishing features arise from populations centered in different climate zones.  Human populations origionating from northern Europe and Asia have much lighter pigmented skin than those from closer to the equator.  However, there are unexplained reasons as to why southeast Asians developed differently from the populations of Africa.  Either way all human population origionates in northeastern Africa and the Middle East and fans out from there.  As humans began to settle in different corners of the Earth, They became cut off from each other and did not meet until their features were clearly different from one another."

how if the gravitational force is occuring due to any energy then it may be converted to some energy ?,"Gravity attracts an object with mass towards the center of the earth.  You must do work, expending your own energy, to overcome gravity and raise a weight.  The weight now has potential energy equal to the weight times the distance raised.  If you raised a 100 Lb weight one foot, you did 100 ft-Lbs of work on the weight and the weight now has 100ft-Lbs of Potential Energy that can be used to do work, such as lift another weight on the other end of a seesaw.  All of the energy discussed derives from the earth's gravitational field which has been converted to mechanical energy.  You could perform the same task on the moon except the amount of work and potential energy would be far less because the moon has less gravity.  Also a pound weight on earth would weigh far less on the moon and scientists would usually use units of mass which is constant on the moon and earth to perform calculations."

How much mass is Earth converting to energy per unit time to generate its gravity?,"The previous answer described gravity in the Newtonian sense, but Einstein had a very different explanation. He said that massive objects cause space to warp (like placing a bowling ball on a trampoline). Massive objects are ""attracted"" to other massive objects because they fall into these gravity wells. Thus, there is no energy conversion, only a tendancy for objects to follow the path of least resistance through space (as when you place a marble on the edge of the trampoline and it ""falls"" inward toward the bowling ball)."

how can i find my birth number without any trouble?,"Hi...\nThe birth date describes who we are, what we are good at and what our inborn abilities are. It also points to what we have to learn and the challenges we are facing.The birth number is only one puzzle piece in a total numerology reading. The information given here is meant as an introduction to numerology.\n\nDue to repeated requests I have also added the double digit master numbers 11, 22 and 33. I still recommend that you get a full numerology reading to get the total meaning of these numbers in your life. I also want to point out that those who have double digits are always influenced also by the single digit meaning of number.\n\nTo figure out your Birth Number, add all the numbers in the birth date together like in the example until there is only one digit. The Birth Number does not prevent you from being anything you want, it will just color your choice differently.\nExample: March 20, 1950\n3 + 20 + 1950 = 1973 = 1 + 9 + 7 + 3 = 20 = 2 + 0 = 2"

How to save arrays in MySQL with PHP?,"If you are using the native mysql drivers in PHP, then there are no MySQL arrays, you are creating an object that you iterate over. The idea is to iterate over the object's results and put those results into an array. Observe:\n\n<?php\n// Connecting, selecting database\n$link = mysql_connect('mysql_host', 'mysql_user', 'mysql_password')\n   or die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());\necho 'Connected successfully';\nmysql_select_db('my_database') or die('Could not select database');\n\n// Performing SQL query\n$query = 'SELECT * FROM my_table';\n$result = mysql_query($query) or die('Query failed: ' . mysql_error());\n\n// Printing results in HTML\necho ""<table>&#92;n"";\nwhile ($line = mysql_fetch_array($result, MYSQL_ASSOC)) {\n   echo ""&#92;t<tr>&#92;n"";\n   foreach ($line as $col_value) {\n       echo ""&#92;t&#92;t<td>$col_value</td>&#92;n"";\n   }\n   echo ""&#92;t</tr>&#92;n"";\n}\necho ""</table>&#92;n"";\n\n// Free resultset\nmysql_free_result($result);\n\n// Closing connection\nmysql_close($link);\n?> \n\nThe line you are looking for is:\nwhile ($line = mysql_fetch_array($result, MYSQL_ASSOC))\n\nBasically, mysql_fetch_array will return an associtive array containing the column name as the key, and the data for that column into $line. Then you can further push that into an array container.\n\nvar $data = array();\n...\n$data[] = $line;\n...\n\nYou cannot otherwise take a mysql result and make it an array, you must iterate over the object.\n\nFYI - I do not reccomend using the native PHP drivers. Using an abstraction library makes your code so much more portable. Using native drivers may make for quick coding, but you loose so much more in the end. \n\nI've included links to Pear::DB, ADODB, and PDO as possible libraries to look at. There are more, these are just examples.\n\nHope that helps."

"how do I pick the right size bicycle for my child (45 inches, 4 years old, needs training wheels)?","Take him to your local bike shop and get them to help you pick out a bike.  They are interested in getting him a bike that will fit him and are experienced in the industry.  Don't buy from WalMart, or Academy, or department stores, where the sales help is usually clueless.  The average ""department store"" bike gets less than 100 miles on it before it hits the dumpster - and for good reason - they aren't fun to ride because the quality is so poor.  Even for a kids' bike that you expect him to outgrow in a couple of years can be handed down to a sibling or friend.  You'll pay a little more, but the piece of mind knowing that his bike will hold up to the crashes, getting dumped in the yard, jumping curbs is worth it.  \n\nYou can get good kids' bikes in some of the main brands - Giant, Trek, Specialized, etc.  They will be good quality.  (Note, if you are as old as I am, Schwinn was the thing to get when you were a kid - but they are no longer.  The name was bought out by a very low end, cheap company (Pacific Mongoose) and the quality has gone way downhill.)\n\nAnd as everyone says: get a helmet & a pump.  The tires should be aired at least once a week (they will lose ~10% of their pressure *each* night)."
"what is vitrual memory?after about 20 mins, pc pops up with this message vitrual memory low, what can i do?","Since the main memory (RAM) is expensive, it usually has lesser capacity than the hard drive.  However, the problem with that is the RAM gets filled quickly with all your running programs.  However, the CPU (processor) multi-tasks, hence it doesnt need the programs (data and instruction words in the RAM) all the time.  Thats where the virtual memory comes into picture.  Virtual memory is basically part of the drive which is used as a temporary ""parking space"" for data and instruction words which can't be held in the RAM.  When programs are no longer requred they are ""swapped"" to the hard drive from the RAM and shuttled back to the RAM when the CPU gets ready to process them (depending upon the scheduling algorithm).\n\nYou are getting the error because you have assigned less virtual memory (or the system has assigned less vitual memory).  Hence, when the RAM gets full, its doesn't get any ""parking space"" on the hard drive and you get the error.\n\nIn order to bump up the virtual memory and improve system performance, view the following page.  It is really helpful!"

What is the difference between a savings account and a money market account?,Money Market accounts typically offer a much higher rate of return than savings accounts. They invest in super safe securities such as short term bonds and t-bills. They are completely liquid (you can make withdraws whenever).

They also adjust to the current interest rate much faster than savings accounts which typically move like molasses on a winter day.

This occurs in the forms of ""falling stars"", or meteors, on a dark night. The actual amount of added material depends on each study, though it is estimated that 10 to the 8th power kilograms of in-falling matter accumulates every day. The seemingly large amount, however, is insignificant to the Earth's total mass. The Earth adds an estimated one quadrillionth of one percent to its weight each day."

best way to invest money...risks doesnt matter for me?,"It's been mathematically ""proven"" that you can get high returns AND reduce your risk by buying diverse high-risk investments which have no correllation.\n\nAlso, Equities (Stocks) have had some of the best returns historically, and are still considered a very good investment.\n\nOf course you don't want to be STUPID about it and buy the riskiest stuff possible.  Get some AGGRESSIVE mutual funds with low fees (Vanguard has some).  Spread your money around to highly aggressive funds that have little correllation.  For instance, some Domestic High Growth, some Foreign aggressive growth, maybe some Real Estate Trust Funds, some High Tech, Some Health Care.\n\nLook at the historic returns of the sector and the fund.  Look too at the risk vs. return.  If, as you say, risks don't matter, then go for high return funds, with a reasonable risk.  And spread it around - but make sure you spread it around to different TYPES of investments - all that are aggressive, but some that move contrary to each other (like foreign vs domestic, or REITs vs Stock)"

How do you like picking a best answer?,"It's hard to pick the perfect answer, especially since some of the answers are subjective. For instance, if I asked someone for what they thought the BEST place to eat was, I can't really qualify that.

The questions that I've personally asked, thus far, usually there has been one answer that typifies this. Now, if I received several long responses that have merit, I would be inclined to let the users pick."
Titanic Questions?,"The answers to your questions in the order asked:\n\n(1) Any ship can hit an iceberg, it's not like the iceberg is living and could have moved out of the way because it WANTED to. \n\n(2) In those days, the poor were considered ""third class"" individuals, and so on the ship were put into the ""third class"" accomodations. As such, the crew was directed to make sure the first and second class passengers were attended to first. That wasn't right to do at all, but that's just how it was. \n\n(3) It's mainly the fault of the shipbuilders who only put 20 lifeboats on the ship, which wasn't enough for half the passengers. Sharing in the blame would have to be the officer who tried to turn the ship when it was too close already, since the ship wouldn't have sunk if it hit the iceberg head on. It was also the captain's fault for not taking the necessary precautions with the ship when he knew they were headed directly into an ice field.\n\n(4) The shipbuilders wanted as much ""ooh and ahh"" over the ship as they could get from the public. That's why they fostered the belief that the ship was ""unsinkable"", and that the ship itself was one big lifeboat. Those in charge also felt that the extra boats would have cluttered up the ship's deck. \n\n(5) They didn't prepare for this because they were arrogant and felt that they had the greatest ship in all of history and nothing would ever happen to it.\n\n(6) Greed is why people tried to take and sell Titanic artifacts. It was all about the $$$. \n\n(7) Titanic's victims are long-gone. Either they were consumed by organisms at the bottom of the ocean, or like anyone in the grave, their bodies returned to the dust."

What was Woorow Wilson's reson for the cause of WWI?,"Following is the beginning of the President’s message to the 65th Congress concerning that war.  The complete message may be found at the source link:\n\nGentlemen of the Congress: \nI have called the Congress into extraordinary session because there are serious, very serious, choices of policy to be made, and made immediately, which it was neither right nor constitutionally permissible that I should assume the responsibility of making. \nOn the 3d of February last I officially laid before you the extraordinary announcement of the Imperial German Government that on and after the 1st day of February it was its purpose to put aside all restraints of law or of humanity and use its submarines to sink every vessel that sought to approach either the ports of Great Britain and Ireland or the western coasts of Europe or any of the ports controlled by the enemies of Germany within the Mediterranean. That had seemed to be the object of the German submarine warfare earlier in the war, but since April of last year the Imperial Government had somewhat restrained the commanders of its undersea craft in conformity with its promise then given to us that passenger boats should not be sunk and that due warning would be given to all other vessels which its submarines might seek to destroy, when no resistance was offered or escape attempted, and care taken that their crews were given at least a fair chance to save their lives in their open boats. The precautions taken were meagre and haphazard enough, as was proved in distressing instance after instance in the progress of the cruel and unmanly business, but a certain degree of restraint was observed The new policy has swept every restriction aside. Vessels of every kind, whatever their flag, their character, their cargo, their destination, their errand, have been ruthlessly sent to the bottom without warning and without thought of help or mercy for those on board, the vessels of friendly neutrals along with those of belligerents. Even hospital ships and ships carrying relief to the sorely bereaved and stricken people of Belgium, though the latter were provided with safe-conduct through the proscribed areas by the German Government itself and were distinguished by unmistakable marks of identity, have been sunk with the same reckless lack of compassion or of principle."

what is the most emerging market for growth in the next few years ?,"Most experts say that China will become the major world economic power within the next 10 years. China's extremely large population, coupled with new money from outsourcing from Japan and the US, has created an explosion of consumer spending. This in turn has boosted the Chinese economy, and will couse China to be the biggest emerging market in the coming years.\n\nIndia, to a smaller extent, will experience/is experiencing this effect as well. However, China is much more developed than India, which to some extent is still a third world country."

"Is the Death Penalty a good ""thing"" or a bad ""thing""?","As long as the person is guilty, and the crime is severe, I think it is a good thing.\n\nFor one thing, why should a cold blooded murder get the chance he never gave to his victim?  Victims (usually  innocent people) do not get a chance to start a new life, do they? Plus why should he get a lifetime of freebies (free meals, free clothes, free cable) and even some freebies that the law-abiding cannot afford (like free gym, free college courses) after taking a life?\n\nA good alternative would be to use the worst of the worst (rapists, pedohiles, murderers) for testing instead of the innocent animals.  At least then they could serve a purpose in society, and maybe even give a little back."

When was the Parthenon built and why?,"The work on Parthenon started in 447 BC.  Work on the temple continued until 432 BC.  The Parthenon is a Doric peripteral temple, which means that it consists of a rectangular floor plan with a series of low steps on every side, and a colonnade (8 x 17) of Doric columns extending around the periphery of the entire structure. Each entrance has an additional six columns in front of it. The larger of the two interior rooms, the naos, housed the cult statue. The smaller room (the opisthodomos) was used as a treasury.\n\nSome historians believe that Athens concluded a peace treaty with Persia in 449, two years before work began on the Parthenon. The significance of this would be that the Delian League/Athenian Empire continued to exist, even after the reason for its existence (a mutual defense league against the Persians) had ceased to be valid. In other words it was now openly acknowledged that Athens was not just the head of the Greek defense league but actually an imperial master over other Greek states. The decision by the Athenians in 454 BC to move the League treasury from the Panhellenic sanctuary at Delos to the Athenian acropolis points in the same direction. Because the Parthenon was built with League funds, the building may be read as an expression of the confidence of the Athenians in this newly naked imperialism."
Who wrote the book of Revelation in the Bible? What is the proof?,"The answer is in verse one.\n\n""The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave Him to show His servants—things which must shortly take place.

why is USC going to lose the rose bowl ?,Texas' D has speed and a quality defensive back field including Micheal Huff (this years Thorpe Award winner for best defensive back and former high school track star) and Micheal Griffin. The Texas defense backfield faces a tall WR everyday in practive Limas Sweed (6-5).

how could you satisfy your girl friend?,"The truth is this, there is no way to satisfy your girlfriend, or anyone, for that matter.  Men and women, it seems, have this belief that they can ""please"" each other or ""make"" each other happy.  It is a nice thought, but it doesn't really happen that way.  Think about this, you are upset and your friend tells you a joke that makes you feel better...right?  Wrong.  You chose to feel better by seeing the humor in the joke and allowed yourself to open up enough to be influenced by the humor, losing your grip on those negative thoughts and feelings you had previously.  It is the same with women, in this case, your girlfriend.  \n\nYou can't satisfy her, but there is something you can do to improve the situation.  First start with you, being the best person you can be...to yourself, to others, and to her.  Be confident, be yourself, be all the things you want to be when fear and self-consiousness set in, and be true to who you are.  Then be selfless, helpful, caring, compassionate, diligent, and patient with those around you.  As for your girlfriend, you should follow your heart, care for her, give her yourself, be WITH her when you are around her, share, be thoughtful and kind, and show her that you care.  Although you cannot ""force"" or ""make"" her do anything, you can still be the best person possible, making each day you live worth living, making yourself a person of value, and creating a certain magic in your life.  All of these things will not only draw better people to you in your life, but your girlfriend will be more ""open"" to your influenc and ""willing"" to share whatever you wish with you.  \n\nA last note.  Women ""feel"" rather than ""think"" their ways into better relationships.  Men are mostly the other way.  If you love her and care for her, you should take the risk and tell her what is in your heart as often as you can, show her what you feel without the ""act"", and do for her what you would want done for yourself.  The best advice in any relationship, including the one you have with yourself, is this: ""If you don't want people to treat you like an @ssho!e, then don't act like one"".....in your case it would sound more like this ""If you want to satisfy her, then let her satisfy you"".  Do all the things to her that you want her to do to you (or have done to you, if you are content in the relationship).  Relationships are a balance, and if yours needs some adjustment, then make those adjustments.  Don't worry if you think you are working too hard, when she realizes what you are doing, she will be more than willing to do her part as well (if she is right for you, that is....and doing this will give you a good indicator if she is or isn't ""the one""....)\n\nI hope this helped.  Good luck!"

"Are satellite radio stations the same ""channels"" all across the country?","I think the last person that answered misunderstood the question.  I believe you mean the XM and Sirius satellite radio.  The channels are the same no matter where you go, the same name and the same channel number.  It is different from FM/AM radio as there could be other stations use the same frequency but in another region.  Satellite radio is meant to broadcast all over the U.S. as FM/AM is not meant to.  \n\nIt is the same with television stations.  If you receive it on a cable system or over the air that channel is unique to that area but if you get Dish Network or DirecTv that station and number is the same no matter where you go in the U.S. and receive that signal."

Could we all become separate species..?,"Given today's atmosphere (socio-economic, not the sky), it is not possible.\n\nLook to Darwin to see WHY species differentiated.\nOne reason is they change to better thrive in their surroundings.  We humans tend to alter our surroundings to more fit us.\nAnother reason is physical barrier (and then go back to number one), so two populations evolve differently...due to their different surroundings.  The only problem is that I live next door to an Italian, an American Indian (1/8), and a Pakistani.  World travel is a thing of relative ease.  Breeding is so intermixed between populations that you will not have a barrier-method break to help evolution.\n\nIn summary, I believe we will not become different species of human."

Why are wedding rings worn on the left hand?,"""Before medical science discovered how the circulatory system functioned, people believed that a vein of blood ran directly from the fourth finger on the left hand to the heart. (This belief allegedly dates to the 3rd century BC in Greece.) Because of the hand-heart connection, people named the putative vein descriptively vena amori, Latin for 'the vein of love'. Due to this tradition, it became accepted to wear the wedding ring on this finger. By wearing rings on the fourth finger of their left hands, a married couple symbolically declares their eternal love for each other. This has now become a matter of tradition and etiquette.\n\nIn most Western cultures, the wedding ring is worn on the left hand. In some countries, however, such as Germany, Norway, and Chile, it is worn on the right hand. Orthodox Christians, Eastern Europeans and Jews also traditionally wear the wedding band on the right hand.\n\nEtiquette frowns severely on the making of sexual overtures to a man or woman wearing a wedding ring.""\n\nFor wedding invitations, be sure to check out http://announcements.com \n\nThey have a huge selection, and usually ship within 2 business days."

Regardless of your marital status at the time of signing you could still be what is called tenants in common.  Any two people can be tenants in common.  Go back to your original contract and read what it says.  If it names both of you and both of you agreed then you are probably tenants in common.  Each having half undivided interest.\n\nBut this also means she would be responsible for half  of anything like taxes, mortgage payments and any other expenses with the property.\n\nAbout the only claim you can make to the property would be adverse possesion in he half interest but it might be a stretch.\n\nBut after 25 years of no payment of duties it might equal her half interest anyway.\n\nI would ask for accounting and partition....but see a lawyer."

how do i run my own web hosting service?,"The best way to start one is to actually resell another providers web hosting.  You can sign up as an affiliate for a number of hosts like Intermedia.net, Hostopia and a few others.  These 2 are the best that I've come across.  This way you only deal with the marketing, sales and some of the 'company' operations without having to deal with the technical operational issues associated with web hosting.  Trust me, I spent 5 years at a hosting company -- it's a pain in the neck."

how do you simplify fractions?,"You are trying to get the smallest number on top (numerator) and bottom (denominator). You divide the numerator and denominator by the same number.\n\nFor example, 180/240 can be simplified by dividing the numerator and denominator by 10 to get 18/24. Next you can divide the numerator and denominator by 6. 18 divided by 6 is 3, and 24 divided by 6 is 4 to get a simplified fraction of 3/4. \n\nThe trick is knowing which numbers divide the numerator and denominator evenly."

why do people with relatively low cholesterol get blocked arteries and have heart attacks?,"A lot depends on the ""type"" of cholesterol a person has. The types are LDL and HDL. It's easy to discern the two because you can think of LDL as being the ""lethal"" type.\n\nBelow is an excerpt from an article on WebMD that provides better clarification about the types of cholesterol and why having low cholesterol may lead to heart attacks:\n\n\nCholesterol is transported in a person's blood in special proteins called lipoproteins. The two we are most familiar with are low-density lipoprotein (LDL cholesterol) and high-density lipoprotein (HDL cholesterol). LDL is often referred to as ""bad"" cholesterol. It transports cholesterol from the liver to other body tissues -- depositing excess cholesterol on the walls of arteries to form artery-clogging ""plaques"" that contribute to the development of heart disease and stroke. You want to have less of this. \n\nIn contrast, HDL, or good cholesterol, helps remove excess cholesterol from the blood -- transporting it back to the liver, where it can be eliminated from the body. You want to have more of this type. \n\nFurthermore, the latest recommendations are that LDL levels ideally be below 100 -- a significant reduction from previous recommendations -- and that HDL levels be above 40, ideally over 60."

wheredoihuntinvirginia?andisthereasysteminplacetobringprivatelandownersandhunterstogether?,I hunt all over in Virginia so I'm an expert.

I enjoy hunting from the vehicle as you can hunt both in the country AND in the city.  You can sit in a tree and freeze to wait for a deer or drive around and pick one out.

what kinda girls do guys want to be their like?,"People tend to fall in love with people who are similar to themselves.  Guys who fall in love with a shallow, vacuous girl are likely (but not always) shallow and vacuous themselves.  However, if you don't like the guys that approach you, that points to a different issue.  You should think about what image you may be projecting.  The guys you are attracting are basing whether or not they'll approach you generally on first impressions, so you may be making a first impression that's not in tune with who you really are.  It's a mistake to dress like the girl who's with the guy that you like, because he may like that girl for a myriad of other reasons besides her appearance.  For instance, how do you know that's not his sister or ex-girlfriend?  Talking to him would answer questions like these.  This illustrates why conversation, interaction, and  getting to know people is the best advice for forming lasting relationships."

Go to 'My Settings' page, click on 'Add Signature', type the signature line you want, check the option of adding the signature to all outgoing emails and click on 'Ok'.\n\nNow comes the tricky part, you can't directly add graphical signatures. But here's what you can do, put the picture on internet at some website, for example your own forum. Take its webaddress and put some html code in your signature, which shows the image(It the same notmal HTML code that you use to show a picture inside a normal webpage). For example, showing you an example with text, if you write :\n\n<b>ABC</b>, the letters ABC will be in bold in your signature. Hope you can write the code for including the image. But I am not sure whether it will work for sure, because their support for signatures is not that great, and many a times, can cause an error."

While in most countries the cat is said to have nine lives, in Arab and Turkish proverbs poor puss has a mere seven lucky lives and in Russia, is said to-survive nine deaths."

He tells her he hates her and never wants to see her ever again, and that if she tries, he will kill her and her family; naturally prompting her to want to leave with her mother who is getting a divorce.

whats lewis dot structure for iron?,"that's a trick question.. you can't have a lewis dot structure for iron.. The Lewis dot structures represent elements who's outer shell consists of electrons in the s and p orbitals, iron is in the d-block.  What i mean is that only the first two groups and the last 6 groups on the periodic table can have lewis structures, elements in the first group have one dot, second have 2, then it skips over the transition metals(which is what iron is) the 13th have 3, 14th have 4, etc up to 8.  d-orbital electrons(which are where the outer electrons of those transition metals are) are not as reactive and don't behave in the same way and so cannot have lewis structures.\n\nthat's a trick question.. you can't have a lewis dot structure for iron..

"Has the Invasion of Iraq increased decreased the ""suspected"" hatred ""Arabs"" have for Americans??","My husband is a soldier and is on his way back from Iraq as we speak.  He has a better understanding of what life is like for the people, however, he also sees the hatred THEY have for Americans! Is hard to help people when they are trying to kill you!  He(and his family) feel sorry for the people who have to live in such horrible conditions.  His concern is this....How do you tell the good from the bad? How do you know who to help and who is a terrorist that wants nothing more than to kill you? Its a tuff question, and I think it depends on who you ask.  The general American public, that has no education about the situations in the Middle East most likely generalize and hate that race...HOWEVER, for those of us who do have some sort of inside knowledge(military), we are a little more understanding.  We feel sorry and want to help, yet at the same time, dont know who to trust.  I hope this in understandable.\nNow...do I or my husband agree to the USA being there? No Not at all, we dont want to be there! However, we must do what the chain of command says, or we go to prisson and can be put to death! When most of these soldiers joined the Military, there was no war anyplace, so we didnt ask for this, we may not agree with it, but we are bound by a legal contract to do what Bush tells us.  Now, MY husbamd is a medic...his job is to save lives...ALL LIVES.  I dont know if the US Military has or has not raped the people there...I can only speak for MY UNIT....and MY UNIT has never considered anything like that, and I cant believe other units would either. Im not saying its not true, im saying its hard to believe.  War is a horrible thing and horrible things happen in wars.  We dont blame the people in Iraq for hating us...as said, we invaded their land, and they are being lied too and threatened by the terorists.  If I was in that situation I would probably act the same way, but untill the people in Iraq learn to defend themselves from horrible people like Sadam and Osoma..then they will always be in horrible living conditions."

How do a fish's gills extract oxygen?,"The circulation of blood in fish is simple. The heart only has two chambers, in contrast to our heart, which has four. This is because the fish heart only pumps blood in one direction. The blood enters the heart through a vein and exits through an artery on its way to the gills. In the gills, the blood picks up oxygen from the surrounding water and leaves the gills in arteries, which go to the body. The oxygen is used in the body and goes back to the heart. This is a very simple closed-circle circulatory system."

What are the amendments? (Bill of Rights)?,"The amendments are the alterations that are made to the constitution. This ability to change was written into the original constitution, and is considered one of the primary reasons that the constitution is such a great document.\n\nThe Bill of Rights refers to the document of 12 amendments (though two were not accepted leaving only ten that have any force of law) to the constitution that had to be made before the constitution was accepted. Primarily they are points that were left out of the original constitution that the delegates felt should be included. So the 10 Amendments of the Bill of Rights were enacted before the constitution was ratified."

You can define these variables by clicking on the other view (bottom left). Then you can state more clearly what each variable measures as well as get rid of obnoxious decimals if needed. You can also make it so that you can use ""1"" and ""2"" to mean things like male and female and have the words show up in the data list instead. Then, once you have it all set up, you simply need to enter the data you have collected into the right spot in the spreadsheet."

removing a dell cd-rw?,"There is no way to answer the question with exact specifics without knowing the type and model ie desktop/laptop and model. However in general for a desktop computer you turn off the machine then disconnect the power source and all cables... remove the side covers . inside the case locate the drive to be removed , disconnect the power, data and audio connectors , then remove the mounting screws typically there are 4, 2 on either side. Once the screws are out slide the drive out toward the front of the case and once its clear you are done. \n On Laptop models ther are a variety of mounting methods, most models use a slide latch on the bottom of the case, with power off simply slide the latch whichever way is indicated for release (usually to the left) and slide the drive free of the case."

What is the White Cane Law?,"Simply stated, the White Cane Law specifies that a motorist must stop at least 10 feet from anyone using a white cane or walking stick or walking with the assistance of a guide dog.  Even if the blind person is violating a pedestrian law, each motorist has a responsibility to stop that is absolute.\n\nHere more detail:\n\nWisconsin has the White Cane Traffic Law, 346.26, which has been in force since 1947. This law states:\n\nBlind pedestrian on highway.\n\n1) An operator of a vehicle shall stop the vehicle before approaching closer than 10 feet to a pedestrian who is carrying a cane or walking stick which is white in color or white trimmed with red and which is held in an extended or raised position or who is using a dog guide and shall take such precautions as may be necessary to avoid accident or injury to the pedestrian. The fact that the pedestrian may be violating any of the laws applicable to pedestrians does not relieve the operator of a vehicle from the duties imposed by this subsection.\n\n2) Nothing in this section shall be construed to deprive any totally or partially blind person not carrying the white or the red and white cane or walking stick or not using a dog guide of the rights of other pedestrians crossing highways, nor shall the failure of such totally or partially blind pedestrian to carry such cane or walking stick or to use a dog guide be evidence of any negligence.\n\n3) No person who is not totally or partially blind shall carry or use on any street, highway or other public place any cane or walking stick which is white in color, or white trimmed with red."

at what psi does water boil?,"You can't make water boil by compressing it directly.  If you compress it, but allow the hest caused by compressing to leave, then you'll get nothing.  It is possible if you have an insulated system to compress it in such a way that temperature of the water rises, but at higher pressures, the temperature needed to boil water increases.  If the water, once heated by comprsession, were to be rapidy brought to a lower pressure through a throttling valve, it could be vaporized.\n\nBut really, if you want water to boil, you should *DECREASE* the pressure.  In out space, water at room temperature would instantly boil due to the low pressure involved."

What is Chaos Theory? Explain in your own words?,"What exactly is chaos? The name ""chaos theory"" comes from the fact that the systems that the theory describes are apparently disordered, but chaos theory is really about finding the underlying order in apparently random data. \nWhen was chaos first discovered? The first true experimenter in chaos was a meteorologist, named Edward Lorenz. In 1960, he was working on the problem of weather prediction. He had a computer set up, with a set of twelve equations to model the weather. It didn't predict the weather itself. However this computer program did theoretically predict what the weather might be. \n\nOne day in 1961, he wanted to see a particular sequence again. To save time, he started in the middle of the sequence, instead of the beginning. He entered the number off his printout and left to let it run. \n\nWhen he came back an hour later, the sequence had evolved differently. Instead of the same pattern as before, it diverged from the pattern, ending up wildly different from the original. (See figure 1.) Eventually he figured out what happened. The computer stored the numbers to six decimal places in its memory. To save paper, he only had it print out three decimal places. In the original sequence, the number was .506127, and he had only typed the first three digits, .506.   ...(c this site)"

"Where does the phrase ""The Whole 9 Yards come from"">?","I answered this question a few days back with this information:\n\n This phrase is of unknown origin and is the subject of some debate. At issue is to what does nine yards refer. The meaning is clearly the entirety or everything, but nine yards is not a significant measure of anything. All we know about its origin is that the phrase cannot be traced any earlier than the mid-1960s and that it is American in origin.\n\nPerhaps the most common assumption is that it is from American football, but the canonical distance in that game is ten, not nine, yards. Also common are explanations based on length of cloth, but there is no standard length for a bolt of cloth (which measure anywhere from twenty to twenty-five yards), and nine yards is not a significant measure for any type of garment (a man's suit uses about seven yards of a thirty-inch bolt, double folded; sarongs, saris, kilts, kimonos, bridal veils and any number of other garments have been suggested, none with any accompanying evidence).\n\nThe explanation that is currently circulating around the internet most frequently is that nine yards was the length of a belt of machine gun ammunition carried by a WWII fighter plane. To ""give it the whole nine yards"" was to expend all of one's ammo. This explanation is almost certainly false. For one thing, the type of fighter varies with the teller, sometimes Spitfires in the Battle of Britain, sometimes varying American fighters in the South Pacific. Another reason to doubt it is that ammunition is either counted in rounds or by weight. It is never measured in length of a belt. Chapman points to an origin in the Army and Air Force, which fits in with the post-WWII-era origin, but is otherwise unexplained."

However, when she did not return his love, he placed a curse on her so that no one would ever believe her predictions. Thus Cassandra foresees the destruction of Troy (she warns the Trojans about the Trojan Horse, the death of Agamemnon, and her own demise), but is unable to do anything about them. Coroebus and Othronus came to the aid of Troy out of love for Cassandra.After the Trojan War, Cassandra is taken as a concubine and slave girl by King Agamemnon of Mycenae after being raped by Ajax. Unbeknownst to Agamemnon, while he was away at war, his wife, Clytemnestra, had begun an affair with Aegisthus. Upon Agamemnon and Cassandra's arrival in Mycenae, Clytemnestra asked her husband to walk across a purple carpet; he initially refused then gave in and entered, not believing Cassandra's warnings. Clytemnestra and Aegisthus then murdered Agamemnon, and then Cassandra. Some information says that Cassandra and Agamemnon have twin boys Teledamus and Pelops, who are killed by Aegisthus."

Should I buy an AMD 3700+ or wait till the price of dual core processors goes down?,"The question is do you want to plan for the future now by getting a dual core processor.  Currently not many applications support dual core processors (save for Windows and some versions of Linux) so they would only be utilizing one core, games and Office, for example.  By late next year there should be plenty of applications that can use dual core processors and the prices will likely drop as well.  For now, I think you are fine with the AMD 3700+.  Next year, if you wanted you could most likely pop a dual core chip into your motherboard, just make sure the BIOS supports it.  If you want to check out a dual core system, this one is one of my favorites http://www.circuitcity.com/ssm/HP-Pavilion-Desktop-PC-A1250N-/sem/rpsm/oid/134690/catOid/-12962/rpem/ccd/productDetail.do for the price it's an excellent value, that is, if you are looking at a whole system and not just a processor upgrade."

What is the difference between sleet and hail?,"Sleet is formed by snow (single ice crystals) being formed in cold clouds and then falling through warmer air so that they begin to partially melt, falling as wet snow - sleet.\n\nHailstones form by water droplets freezing very quickly in a cloud so that they form a small blob or nucleus rather than the larger crystal formed by a slow freezing snow flake crystal. The nucleus continues to fall through the cloud until it meets a strong upcurrent of warmer damper air coming up from the ground.  This blows the ice droplet up into the colder part of the cloud.  the warm air surrounding the nucleus cools and the water in it condenses out and freezes onto the surface of the existing ice droplet making it larger and heavier.  This is cycle isrepeated until the updraught is not strong enough to keep the hailstone airborne and it (and the millions of others with it) drop to the ground.\n\nThe stronger the updraught the larger the final hailstone.\n\nIf you collect some hailstones after they have dropped and use a sharp knife to cleanly cut one in half, you might be able to see the individuals layers of ice within the hailstone through a magnifying glass or microscope.\n\nHailstones can become very very big - have alook at the guiness book of records - but I believe that you Americans hold the record for a hailstone that fell in Kansas, USA, and was measured at 43.18cm (17 in) long - unfortunately no idea of the weight."

Will the Indian Cricket Team Win the 2007 World Cup in West Indies ?,"Hmmm..... It's a tricky one. So, here is a tricky answer from my side.\n\nOn their current form India looks capable of winning the WC 2007, Infactany team can win it. If we look at the ICC ODI Ranking Table then we would see that Australia is 1st and way ahead. But competition is strict from 2nd to 7th as South Africa is marginally ahead of Pakistan who is followed by India, England, Sri Lanka, and New Zealand. This shows how close these teams are when it comes to their standard of play and their consistency. It also means that from 2nd to 7th Position any team can beat its opponent (Even Australia, As New Zealand has just proved it by beating Australia in a record chase). So I think any of the Top Seven teams can won the World Cup on its day. Now a days ODI cricket has become so unpredictable that any thing can happen. \n\nComing back to the question, I would say that Aussies are favorites to defend their title but a bad day can stop their march towards a dream hat trick. Apart from Australia, every other team (i.e.; England, India, New Zealand, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, South Africa) have equal chance to win the WC 2007. Any of the above mentioned team can make Aussies pay for their mistakes on the certain day. So, I would say that, India has equal chance of winning the World Cup 2007 as any other Top 7 team, with Aussies being the Favorites."

"What does ""Web 2.0"" mean?","The term ""Web 2.0"" refers to what some people see as a second phase of development of the World Wide Web, including its architecture and its applications.\n\nIt is my personal belief this is another buzz word created by the marketing types to sell more conferences and what not.\n\nIn all reality however Web 2.0 makes up many awesome technologies such as podcasting, AJAX and the move to a more connected space of information. Imagine an Internet where all sorts of information are built together."
why is 13 considered unlucky?,"Triskaidekaphobia is the fear of 13, a number commonly associated with bad luck in Western culture. While fear of the number 13 can be traced back to medieval times, the word triskaidekaphobia itself is of recent vintage, having been first coined by Coriat (1911; Simpson and Weiner 1992). It seems to have first appeared in the general media in a Nov. 8, 1953 New York Times article covering discussions of a United Nations committee. \n\nThis superstition leads some people to fear or avoid anything involving the number 13. In particular, this leads to interesting practices such as the numbering of floors as 1, 2, ..., 11, 12, 14, 15, ... (Sloane's A011760; the ""elevator sequence""), omitting the number 13, in many high-rise American hotels, the numbering of streets avoiding 13th Avenue, and so on. \n\nApparently, 13 hasn't always been considered unlucky. In fact, it appears that in ancient times, 13 was either considered in a positive light or (more commonly) not at all (Adams). The association of bad luck with the number 13 has been attributed to the fact there were 13 people at the Last Supper of Jesus, although this association seems to have originated only in medieval times. \n\nThe association has also been linked to that fact that lunisolar calendars (such as the Hebrew and Chinese calendars) must have 13 months in some years in order to synchronize the solar and lunar cycles, while the solar Gregorian calendar  in universal current usage always has 12 months in a year. \n\nTriskaidekaphobia also may be related to Norse mythology, which tells how the god Odin invited eleven of his closest friends to a dinner party at his home in Valhalla, only to have his party crashed by Loki, the god of evil and turmoil, thus giving a total of 13 people. The legend goes on to related how Balder, one of the most beloved gods, tired to throw Loki out of the party, resulting in a scuffle and ultimately Balder's death with a mistletoe-tipped arrow. \n\nFear of the number 13 also leads to fear of Friday the thirteenth  (a fear recently dubbed paraskevidekatriaphobia), despite the fact that Friday turns out to be the most common weekday on which the 13th of a month can occur in the Gregorian calendar . The association of bad luck with Friday appeared in Chaucer's Canterbury Tales in the late 14th century (""and on a Friday fell all this misfortune""), but references to Friday as a day associated with ill luck in general first appear around the middle of the 17th century (Mikkelson and Mikkelson). In particular, it appeared in numerous publications as a particularly unlucky day to start a new venture (beginning a journey, giving birth, getting married, moving, starting a new job, etc.) beginning around 1800 (Mikkelson and Mikkelson). \n\nWhile 13 is associated with the number of people at the Last Supper, the Crucifixion took place on a Friday, thus leading to an association of back luck with the combination of this number and day. Note that the association of Friday the thirteenth with the arrest of Jacques de Molay, Grand Master of the Knights Templar, on Friday, October 13, 1307 by King Philip IV of France is a modern-day invention (Mikkelson and Mikkelson). \n\nParaskevidekatriaphobia is probably the most widespread superstition in the United States, possibly affecting tens of millions of Americans. Interestingly, a study by Scanlon et al. (1993) published in the prestigious British Medical Journal which analyzed the relation between health, behavior, and superstition surrounding Friday 13th in the United Kingdom by comparing the ratio of traffic volume to traffic accidents on Friday the 6th and Friday the 13th over a period of years found that, ""The risk of hospital admission as a result of a transport accident may be increased by as much as 52%. Staying at home is recommended."" \n\nWhile there does not appear to be hard evidence to support the claim, it has been suggested that $800 to $900 millio"

The combination of histones and DNA forms a nuceoprotein called _______?,"Nucleosome\n\n\nA nucleosome is the fundamental repeating subunit of eukaryotic DNA, and is made up of DNA and histone proteins. It is found in the cell nucleus in eukaryotes. All chromatin (except for that packaged in the sperm nucleus) consists of nucleosomes. Nucleosomes can be seen with an electron microscope as bead-like structures along the DNA.\n\n[edit]\nStructure\n \nThe crystal structure of the nucleosome core particle at 2.8 Å resolution.The histones make up the central core particle of the nucleosome. The DNA is wrapped around this protein complex in 1.6 turns, comprising about 145 base pairs. Together with the DNA linking two nucleosomes, there are about 200 bps of DNA per nucleosome.\n\nNucleosomes are involved in processes ranging from compaction of DNA to transcriptional control, and appear to be major carriers of epigenetically inherited information as well. Repeating nucleosomes with intervening ""linker"" DNA form the 10-nm-fiber, known descriptively as ""beads on a string"", and have a packing ratio of ~6, compared to ""free"" DNA (per nm length). A chain of nucleosomes can be arranged in a 30-nm-fiber, a compacted structure (thought to be a helical solenoid, a zigzag ribbon structure, a superbead, or having no regular structure) with a packing ratio of ~40. The H1 histone stabilizes this structure. Beyond 30 nm fiber the structure of chromatin is poorly understood, but it is classically suggested that the 30 nm fiber is arranged into loops along a central protein scaffold to form transcriptionally active euchromatin. Further compaction leads to transcriptionally inactive heterochromatin."
"With one year left on my lease for my retail store, when should I begin to re-negotiate for a new one?","I would start to plant the seed with the landlord soon. You will be in a better position to negotiate with him if you have more time and thought invested. Start by dropping hints and let him know what you like and dislike about where you are. Also check out what similar areas in other retail locations are renting for. Not for the sake of moving, but to use in your negotiation process if needed.\n\nNegotiating is like dating. Not many people say yes to a marrige proposal on the first date. You have to court that person for some time before popping the big question."

How to find whether my girl is virgin or not???,"Here is a crazy idea.  Ask her.  If you do not believe she is being truthful then dump her.  Personally it should not matter.  I was not a virgin when I met my future wife and she was.  For being a very devout Christian that was a big leap for her, but in the end she got around it.  And you should as well, unless she is not truthful."
is there is a site like yahoo answers give us money for answering user questions?,"yes there was a google alternative, where a professional body of people in all fields will answer your question within a specified time period for a certain fee. The difference I guess between this free service and the professional paid service is that the paid service they guarantee to be factually correct whereas you may go by hearsay on other free services."

How can I contact the Sprint Fraud Management department. It seems as thought there is no way to contact them?,I recommend checking your credit report to see if Sprint has placed this account on there.  The only company that gives free credit reports offered by the government is annualcreditreport.com.  If the Sprint account is on there but you never opened any account with them you might be the victim of identity theft.  Your first step is to place a fraud victim security alert on your credit report which lasts approximentally 3 months to a year depending on the credit bureau.  Your next step is to go to your local police department and file an identity theft report.  Once you have a copy of your police report send it in along with a letter disputing the account as not belonging to you to the credit bureau.  They will send a copy of your police report to Sprint for you and block the account from appearing on your credit report.
"Do you have any tattoos?  If so, who many and where?","So far I have four. My hubby passed away a d I got his name on my bicep..Jerry.

And the chinese symbol for beauty on the back of my neck, because the world is beautiful."
How much does my former employer pay for unemployment benefits in California?  Does it come out of her pocket?,"The previous poster is incorrect.  In fact, the unemployment benefits program is paid for by a tax paid by employers, not employees.  The tax is applied to the first $7000 of wages paid to each employee.  The exact percentage of tax the employer pays varies; it depends on how many previous unemployment claims that employer had (the fewer claims, the lower the tax on the employer)"
How do you prove the existence of God using acceptable scientific methods?,"Science is by nature empirical, if you can't observe or quantify something then it cannot be studied scientifically. For this reason, God cannot be proven scientifically (and technically, science can't disprove God, as you can never prove a negative), as you can't observe Him.\n\nThis is not to say that science and God are mutually exclusive. If God exists, and if His actions were observable then it would be studied scientifically."
"evolution vs creation- if we can be taught about Darwin's idea of life in school, why not Moses'?","You can be taught about Moses's idea of life in school. I was, in my Comparitive Religions class, my World History class and my general Social Studies class. They don't teach Moses's beliefs on the origins of life in Biology class because his beliefs aren't scientific in nature. Moses didn't ask the Hebrews to believe him because of scientific proofs, but because of their faith in G-D."

Is it better to leave the heat on at the same temp or lower it at night/when you are out?,You are better off turning it down at night. You can get a programmable thermostat so you don't have to do it manually. You can get a 7 day programmable (recommended if you will be changing the temp every day) or a 5/2 (changes it only on weekends). I'd recommend a White-Rodgers 1F80-361
"hey,is it true that one day new york will be destroyed by a big tsunami?","Yes Not only NewYork but a lot of countries will loose its lands to killer waves. Miami which was built on the ashes of an valcono will be submerged and a lot of south east asian countries also will be destroyed by these waves. This is happening because of the melting of ice in artic, antartic ice selves. \n\nThis raises the water level and all the low level places will submerge"

What is a blog?,"A blog is a website for which an individual or a group frequently generates text, photographs, video or audio files, and/or links, typically (but not always) on a daily basis. The term is a shortened form of weblog. Authoring a blog, maintaining a blog or adding an article to an existing blog is called ""blogging"". Individual articles on a blog are called ""blog posts,"" ""posts,"" or ""entries"". The person who posts these entries is called a ""blogger"".\n\n    * Electronic communities existed before internetworking. For example the AP wire was, in effect, similar to a large chat room with ""wire fights"" and electronic conversations. Another pre-digital electronic community, amateur (or ""ham"") radio, allowed individuals who set up their own broadcast equipment to communicate with others directly. Ham radio also had logs called ""glogs"" that were personal diaries made using wearable computers in the early 1980s.\n    * Before blogging became popular, digital communities took many forms, including Usenet, e-mail lists and bulletin boards. In the 1990s Internet forum software, such as WebX, created running conversations with ""threads."" Threads are topical connections between messages on a electronic ""corkboard."" See ""Common terms,"" below.\n    * Diarists kept journals on the Web: most called themselves online diarists, journalists, journallers, or journalers. A few called themselves escribitionists. The Open Pages webring contained members of the online-journal community. The first famous journaller was probably Justin Hall.\n    * Other forms of journals kept online also existed. A notable example was game programmer John Carmack's widely read journal, published via the finger protocol.\n    * Websites, including both corporate sites and personal homepages, had and still often have ""What's New"" or ""News"" sections, often on the index page and sorted by date."
"in reference to the saying ""what goes up must come down""; as the universe expands must'nt it also collapse?","1. ""What goes up must come down"" is not a real law of science.\n\n2.

They will go away on their own. Do not use any lotions or cremes on the baby's body.
Why do we get dandruff?,"Some dandruff is caused by dry scalp. Some is caused by a skin condition called seborrheic dermatitis. It is now commonly believed that this may be a fungus infection. \n\nSo, dandruff shampoos are ""medicated"" (such as Neutrogena T/Gel or Nizoral) to make conditions such that the fungus can't thrive. Home remedies do the same thing (Listerine has herbal medications, use of dilute vinegar increases the pH of the scalp)."
Do you regret not listening to your parents advice on something as a teen?  has it effected yor adult life?,"yes definitely. They always tried to tell me to go to school. I was stubborn and I kept on skipping school.  Even though I officialy have a diploma , I feel like I didnt really earn it.  I missed out on a large portion of my education because I skipped school. I'll always regret not taking my parents words seriously ."

What are key difference between Movable Type and Wordpress blogging platforms? Which should I choose?,"For one, Movable Type is written in perl, Wordpress in PHP. Setup for Wordpress is generally easier. Movable Type is more complicated and can host multiple blogs. Movable Type can currently only handle one per installation though that should change soon. Moveable Type is not free if you have more than one blog. WordPress is completely free. MT requires at least some pregeneration of static pages. Wordpress generates all pages out of a database. Since MT has been around longer, it's more mature and has lots of plugins for it. Wordpress is catching up though. Personally I prefer Wordpress because it's simpler and easier to make changes to."

How convert the contents in the textarea to HTML?,"Is very easy. If you are using a textarea with a HTMLArea (WYSIWYG) and you want to stores the styles, the solution is to store in the database all the content of the posted field (when you submit the page the content of the textarea will include the formated text, e.g. <p align='center'><b>foo</b></p>). Next, when you want to extract the content from the data base, it's piece of cake because if you want to show it, it's already formated and you will see as the original. \nIf you want to put it in the textarea just write in the HTML source file the following:\n<textarea ...><% // echo the extracted content here %></textarea>\n\nI hope this will help you."

"what is the best way to make a photo clearer not by sharpening it, when it is blown up 100 % ?","If you blow up a photo and you see a lot of pixels, there really is no way to clear it up, even though you may sometimes see people on TV do it.\n\nIf sharpening doesn't work (be sure to use ""unsharp mask"", it allows a greater degree of control than other sharpening options), then I don't there's anything you can do. You can't add information to a photo that is not already there (which is what you are doing when you blow up a digital image and see pixelization)."

Why does it seem like the court system is set up to protect criminals?,"As pathetic as you think this country is, be grateful that if your girlfriend falsely accuses you of, say, domestice violence (and it happens a LOT), that the burden of proof is upon the government, not upon you to prove innocence.  Read your philosophers like Thomas Jefferson; ""I would rather be exposed to the inconveniencies attending too much liberty than those attending too small a degree of it.""\nEveryone is innnocent until they are proven guilty.  THEN they are a criminal."

What kind of process was used to change Michael Jackson's skin color? How much did it costs?,"No. It is not available to general public. He had to submit to this procedure due to the skin desease he has called Vitiligo. \n\nThis illness destroys the skin pigmentation in some areas of the body... causing that in a black person skin (like Michael) appear big white patches.\nThe process Michael had was to destroy the pigmentation of the rest of the still coloured skin when the illness was too advanced and he could not put make up on the white patches like he did in the beginning (Late 70s, early 80s)\n\nAlthough I think it is not too dangerous, since its a common procedure to treat patients with advanced Vitiligo it has side effects. This process destroys the pigmentation of the skin, that is the natural protection from the sun, so you have to be very careful with your skin. Especially you cannot be exposed to the sun. That's the reason Michael wears dark clothes, mask, fedora and umbrella most of the times he goes out.\nAnd probably you will have to put some creams for the skin, sun blocker or even take special medicine. \n\nThough I'm not so sure of how much this may cost... I bet it's a lot."

When will Yahoo! offer VOIP to land lines?,"Yahoo is launching the VOIP service around March 2006. Yahoo’s Phone Out VoIP service will let users make calls from their PC to non-VoIP enabled traditional landlines and cell phones located in over 180 countries. Calls within the United States will cost $0.01 per minute. Calls to 30 other countries such as Australia, France, Germany and Japan will be priced at less than $0.02 per minute. Yahoo will also make prepaid call plans available, priced in increments of $10 and $25.\n\nThe Phone In VoIP service will let users receive calls from traditional landlines or cell phones on their PC and will be priced at $2.99 per month, or £29.90 per annum. Users subscribed to Yahoo Phone In will be able to choose a phone number in a different country so calls originating from the country will be charged at a local rate. Subscribers will also be able to select multiple phone numbers for use when traveling.\n\nThe Phone Out and Phone In VoIP services will be made easily accessible from a toolbar that will let the user send instant messages, send email and SMS, as well as make calls.

I have no credit.

Plus it lets them pick depending on how much they want to spend on you."

why does the Bible begin with Adam and Eve but yet makes no mention of dinoseours or cave men.?,"The Bible is a record of a specific group of people and their beliefs.  It does not mention the Chinese, but we do know that they existed at the same time as the ancient Hebrews.  If we look at the creation story in the eyes of the people that recorded it, we will find that in different sources, there are different, shall we say, interpretations of the story.  We know, because Christ said such, that he taught only in parables.  As the Son of God, we must accept that, as deity, he would not change.  He clearly states that he was the God of the Old Testament. Since he is unchangable, he must have taught by parable.  Until one accepts that much of the Old Testament contains many accounts that are symbolic in their meaning, such as the Book of Job, we must either see them as irrational explanations of the world (myths)or fairy tales.  Since many of us reject these explanations, we must decide that there is a rational reason for the way the things are told.  When we see the symbolic, hidden meanings within the story, then understanding and personal revelation, through prayer and deep contemplation can reach us.\nWhen we look at the story of Genesis, we are not looking at a detailed description of the entire act of creation, merely a summary as explained to Moses.  However, the chronology of the events do, in fact, reflect the modern scientific explanation in a simple and to an ancient inhabitant, understandable manner of the creation of the earth.\nThere are millions of animals, plants, and other things that are not mentioned in Genesis, but that does not mean that they did not exist.  But it does show that the planet had to be created before life could be.  Plant life proceeds animal life , which proceeds human existence.  In this, there is no disagreement with science.\nAnother thing we must accept, when we carefully study the Bible is that much of it has been altered, lost or mistranslated.  this can lead to serious misunderstandings."

Dan Greenhalgh was drafted in the 24th round by the Phillies in 1971.  Did he ever play professional baseball?,"Baseball_Reference.com lists every major league player that has appeared in a game, and does not list Greenhalgh. (It essentially replaced the old Baseball Encyclopedia.)\n\nIf his claim is that he was a professional player, that is certainly possible, since minor league players are professionals, and you know he was drafted.   He may also have been a coach or instructor of some kind.  There are no good complete sources listing minor league players or coaches, or even scouts.  Much baseball scouting is done by people who are essentially amateurs, who receive a commision for refering good prospects if they find one."

Why and when was the Mason-Dixon line completed?,"Though the Mason-Dixon line is most commonly associated with the division between the northern and southern (free and slave, respectively) states during the 1800s and American Civil War-era, the line was delineated in the mid-1700s to settle a property dispute. The two surveyors who mapped the line, Charles Mason and Jeremiah Dixon, will always be known for their famous boundary.\n\nIn 1632, King Charles I of England gave the first Lord Baltimore, George Calvert, the colony of Maryland. Fifty years later, in 1682, King Charles II gave William Penn the territory to the north, which later became Pennsylvania. A year later, Charles II gave Penn land on the Delmarva Peninsula (the peninsula that includes the eastern portion of modern Maryland and all of Delaware).\n\nThe description of the boundaries in the grants to Calvert and Penn did not match and there was a great deal of confusion as to where the boundary (supposedly along 40° north) lay. The Calvert and Penn families took the matter to the British court and England's chief justice declared in 1750 that the boundary between southern Pennsylvania and northern Maryland should lie 15 miles south of Philadelphia. A decade later, the two families agreed on the compromise and set out to have the new boundary surveyed. Unfortunately, colonial surveyors were no match for the difficult job and two experts from England had to be recruited.\n\n\n\nCharles Mason and Jeremiah Dixon arrived in Philadelphia in November 1763. Mason was an astronomer who had worked at the Royal Observatory at Greenwich and Dixon was a renowned surveyor. The two had worked together as a team prior to their assignment to the colonies.\n\nAfter arriving in Philadelphia, their first task was to determine the exact absolute location of Philadelphia. From there, they began to survey the north-south line that divided the Delmarva Peninsula into the Calvert and Penn properties. Only after the Delmarva portion of the line had been completed did the duo move to mark the east-west running line between Pennsylvania and Maryland.\n\nThey precisely established the point fifteen miles south of Philadelphia and since the beginning of their line was west of Philadelphia, they had to begin their measurement to the east of the beginning of their line. They erected a limestone benchmark at their point of origin.\n\nTravel and surveying in the rugged ""west"" was difficult and slow going. The surveyors had to deal with many different hazards, one of the most dangerous to the men being the indigenous Native Americans living in the region. The duo did have Native American guides although once the survey team reached a point 36 miles east of the end point of the boundary, their guides told them not to travel any farther. Hostile residents kept the survey from reaching its end goal. Thus, on October 9, 1767, almost four years after they began their surveying, the 233 mile-long Mason-Dixon had (almost) been completely surveyed.\n\nOver fifty years later, the boundary between the two states came into the spotlight with the Missouri Compromise of 1820. The Compromise established a boundary between the slave states of the south and the free states of the north (however its separation of Maryland and Delaware is a bit confusing since Delaware was a slave state that stayed in the Union). This boundary became referred to as the Mason-Dixon line because it began in the east along the Mason-Dixon line and headed westward to the Ohio River and along the Ohio to its mouth at the Mississippi River and then west along 36° 30' North.\n\nThis line was very symbolic in the minds of the people of the young nation struggling over slavery and the names of the two surveyors who created it will evermore be associated with that struggle and its geographic association"

Taoists?  What is Taoism to you?,"Taoism-The philosophical system stems largely from the Tao-te-ching, a text traditionally ascribed to Lao Tzu but probably written in the mid-3d cent. B.C. The Tao, in the broadest sense, is the way the universe functions, the path [Chin. tao=path] taken by natural events. It is characterized by spontaneous creativity and by regular alternations of phenomena (such as day following night) that proceed without effort. Effortless action may be illustrated by the conduct of water, which unresistingly accepts the lowest level and yet wears away the hardest substance. Human beings, following the Tao, must abjure all striving. The ideal state of being, fully attainable only by mystical contemplation, is simplicity and freedom from desire, comparable to that of an infant or an “uncarved block.”\n\nTaoist political doctrines reflect this quietistic philosophy: the ruler's duty is to impose a minimum of government, while protecting his people from experiencing material wants or strong passions. The social virtues expounded by Confucius were condemned as symptoms of excessive government and disregard of effortless action. Second only to Lao Tzu as an exponent of philosophical Taoism was Chuang-tzu, who wrote brilliant satirical essays. Taoist ideals greatly influenced Chinese literature, painting, and calligraphy. Later Taoism emphasized the techniques [Chin. te=power] for realizing the effects flowing from the Tao, especially long life and physical immortality."

"Why, as Christians, we do not celebrate Hanukkah? This is a celebration that dates back before Christ.?","A very sensitive question to be sure. Hanukkah means re-dedication and it is a time when present-day Jews re-dedicate their faith. As many people know it is certainly not as important of a holiday as Passover, Yom Kippur, Shavuot, and other Jewish holidays. Most of the over-importance heaped on Hanukkah is due to its timing when comparing the Hebrew calendar to the Roman calendar. I personally find it ironic that the 25th of Kislev (the Hebrew calendar date for the first night of Hanukkah) is associated with the 25th of December (the Roman calendar date for the observance of Christmas). \n\nSo on to your specific question. There is no good answer why Christians do not celebrate Hanukkah. In the spirit of global tolerance and of coming together Christians may want to light a menorah to usher in the holiday time. After all there are an increasing number of Christians that celebrate the Passover holiday; even if it is likened to Christ's Last Supper which was undoubtably a Seder. \n\nOne of the most poignant discussions on the significance and relevance of Hanukkah to Christians is from Reverend Ricky Hoyt. I have included it as source. \n\nHappy holidays!!"

Which Star Trek series is your favorite & why?,"It's hard for me to pick between The Next Generation and Deep Space Nine as the one favorite.  TNG really hit its stride starting in its third season and had some absolutely magnificent episodes in seasons 4 and 5 (such as ""In Theory,"" ""Darmok,"" ""Cause and Effect,"" and ""The Inner Light,"" just to name a few).  DS9 was darker and more spiritual, exploring the Bajoran civilization as well as the Gamma Quadrant with subtlety and grace.  It also had some great individual episodes, especially ""Far Beyond the Stars.""  In my opinion, TNG at its best was better than DS9 at its best, but over the course of its entire seven seasons DS9 was better than TNG over the course of its entire seven seasons.  So I guess I'd have to call it a tie between TNG and DS9."

how does gas cutter work?,"If you mean plasma cutter, I can help.  A plasma cutter puts a high-frequency (RF) pulse from the copper tool tip to the metallic material to be cut.  This ionizes the air.  Then DC power is delivered to the arc.  The machine dumps a lot of power into the material, heating it up.  The small opening in the tip is for air which blows the molten material away.  In the case of aluminum, the air just pushes it out of the way.  In the case of steel, the air charge reacts with the iron to produce iron oxide, which further produces more heat than just the arc and helps cut the material.\n\nTraditional gas cutting with acetylene and Oxygen is similar, although i have never gas-cut aluminimum.  (?)  The oxy-acetylene is set up to heat the steel with a blue flame.  When a spot is melted through, you push the oxygen lever which lets a lot of oxygen out right onto the metal.  The ferrous (iron) material burns with the oxygen, cutting the steel."

Peter still has some doubts about the safety of the two of them engaging into a relationship and meets and befriends (in a way, his ""new"" best friend) astronaut Edward Brock (Topher Grace) who is the quite the comedian, often upsetting M.J. \n\nMeanwhile, M.J works to reconcile Peter's relationship with Harry Osborne who does not yet reveal that he's found out the secret about his father. Harry takes on more heavier drinking while putting on a false reconciliation with Peter by throwing a party for the both of them, there he meets Topher, I mean Eddie. Eddie says at one point in the film, ""I know I'm not a day older than you Peter... but I'm beginning to feel the astronaut life is weighing far too much for me. I'm thinking about retiring and maybe then you could find me a job as a reporter for the Daily Bugle"" which Peter happily looks forward to. Harry takes notice of the bond established between Eddie and Peter and begins feeling jealous - at the same time his schizophrenia about his father returning starts getting a stronger hold on him on a par with his alcoholism. \n\nEdward goes to M.J's apartment to look for Peter (whose off saving people from Sandman - whose not yet Sandman, just a common criminal by the name of Flint Marko) and M.J covers up for Peter. Eddie decides to leave his gift to Peter for saving him the other day (in a scene where Peter Parker (not Spider-man) saves him from a few Muggers. This scene is highly significant because after Peter saves Eddie, Ed comments on how not all of us have the innocence of comedy in ourselves - but to believe in that innocence, is a dream of mine) M.J asks Edward why can't he give it to Peter himself and Ed says he's got this huge expedition in space - his final ""lift off"" and he'll stay grounded for ever. \n\nThe gift happens to be an access pass to the Space station that corresponds to the transmission between NASA and the spacecrafts in orbit - this way Pete can contact Edward. Meanwhile, Flint Marko - takes on his pedestrian counter-part as William Baker - who works to scam Oscorp. Pete gives Harry some helpful intellectual strategies on how to counter Baker's plot to ruin him - Harry thanks him and they have a small sentimental talk as friends about why he killed his father. \n\nHarry asks Peter if he knew all along, and Peter says he didn't - not till the end. Peter then tries to reconcile any past issues between Harry and his father but Harry says the real Norman Osborne died regretting Peter Parker wasn't his son. Harry quickly apologizes for saying that by using his typsy-ness as an excuse. Peter understands Harry envys the life Peter's living, but Peter tells he would rather live a life without so many risks. Harry reassures he's always got him. Meanwhile, William Baker breaks into Harry's office later and finds the Goblin lair - he is directed by the Green Goblin in the form of Norman Osborne - Harry wasn't schizophrenic after all - to put some of the Performance Enhancing Syrum into Harry's alcoholic beverages - in return, Baker gets the location of a place where he can rob himself to riches. Peter and M.J go to the Space Station and they talk to Eddie from space. \n\nThis is the last friendly conversation Peter and Eddie ever engage in as they cheer off their happy anniversary until something goes horribly wrong - a substance they've gathered from one of the moon rocks has caused a combustion in the shuttle engine.

How is it to be homosexual in USA?,"There's no one correct picture of homosexual men, because everyone experiences it differently.  And of course television shows are trying to entertain you rather than being strictly accurate, so that changes things.\n\nI have known many gay men (and my next door neighbors are lesbians) and in urban areas, gays are generally accepted without it being a big deal to anyone.  They rightly point out that sexuality is only a small part of someone's entire life and personality, so it's poor manners to make too big a deal of it.\n\nThat said, homosexuals still have to deal with harassment, which becomes more of an issue in rural areas.  Also many families are not comfortable with their sons and daughters being gay which can also cause strain."

how can I ensure that a part of my body gets suffecient blood?,"Generally there are 2 reasons why a part of your body might lack blood, physical and chemical.  Physical reasons might be that the part of your body may be too tight to allow for good circulation.  In this case, you must stretch (eg. yoga or pilates) and exercise to loosen up that area.  Doing heat pack will also help to aid the blood flow temporarily.  One important thing to remember though is that the source of tightness might be completely unexpected.  If you have cold hands, it may be more helpful to stretch your calves or your shoulders depending on your body structure rather than the hand itself.  You must remember to treat your body as a whole.  Chemical reasons could come from your diet or the air you breathe or any other intake (eg. tobacco or drugs).  This could alter the chemical make up of your bloodstream.  In this case, what you would have to do is to remove the chemical that is causing the problem.

"Is interracial dating a ""real"" thing and does it really end up working out in the end?","i'll tell you what, you want a straight up answer? i'll give you one! all PC crap aside. i have been all over this planet and seen some pretty awesome things and dated some very foreign women. in the end i have learned that there is two things that make this a little more difficult than dating some one of your own class and ethniticity. 1) parents- they make life difficult on every level of this because they are usually stuck in a oneminded track of how things ought to be. usualy because thats how they were brought up. but even thats a poor excuse for their offten tired and outdated principles. most times they just have a cankering of racial bigotry in their heads just like everyone else. they usually make things twice as difficult on their dughter/son as what things already are and in the end the child will usually claim allegiance to them and their wishes. it snot fair and you cant really do much about it. this is usually the biggest reason for ""intermixed"" relationships to fail. 2) each other- you to individuals are in most cases born of two completely different worlds. in each of these worlds there are certain rules and traditions that are generally expected to be followed without question (parents usually play a role in this also). often times you two individuals get these rules and traditions crossed or confused and guess what? problems occur! whats worse, is mosot times you blame eachother for not understanding the other or you tell eachother that the other refuses to listen or learn. the fact is, both times it all depends on the want or need to make it work. it can and often times does work out, but not without a whole lot of headache and elbow grease. you want to take this person on, good, but make damn well sure they want to take you on. there is a such thing as ""slumming it"", and you will find people out there that know they are going to end up with a person of their own race and class but are interested in playing with something a little differernt for a while. more often than not, and dont take this personal, but it is usually the female that gets this idea. guys dont usually particulary care too much about and too tell you the truth, the most bigoted and hard headed people i have ever met were mothers. they can play hell on their children if they dont approve of them spending their lives with some white boy, or this black girl of yours, blah,blah,blah..its hard man, you just got to have a pair and go for it in the end if its what you want. sometimes you cant control the outcome, but you can work to make the outcome better than it would be if you just left it for what it is on ts own. thats the truth in it from how i see things. everybody is different, thats how i look at things too. nothing ever exactly works out too plan. there wil always be a glitch or hitch somewhere, just make it work for you and your other instead of getting stuck on it. if your in that relationship than you should both know that it isnt interracial, its interpersonal. you two, together, or you two falling apart. thats the best i can explain it to you."

who is Pele?,"PELE - Edson Arantes do Nascimento!\n\n- Born: 23 October, 1940 in Tres Coracoes, Brazil.\n- International Caps: 92.\n- International Goals: 77.\n- Teams: Santos, New York Cosmos.\n- Team Honours: World Cup (1958, 62, 70)World Club Championship (1962, 63)Sao Paulo State Championship (1956, 58, 60, 61, 62, 64, 56, 67, 68).\n-  Individual Honours:  South American Player of the Year (1973)\n\n ""I was born for soccer, just as Beethoven was born for music."" Arrogant, pompous words. Except when they are spoken by Edson Arantes do Nascimento, the Brazilian genius known throughout the football world as Pele.\n\nA veteran of four World Cups, scorer of 1,283 first-class goals - 12 of them in World Cup final tournaments - a member of those magical Brazilian squads that won soccer's greatest prize in 1958, 1962 and 1970.\n\nBut just as a collection of notes do not make a Beethoven symphony, statistics cannot capture the majesty of those glorious Brazilian sides. This was football played to a samba beat. Beautiful skills, astonishing speed and ball control - and of all those great players in the yellow and green shirts, Pele was the greatest of them all.\n\nHe was lithe, agile, strong and seemed to be able to make the ball do as he pleased. Blessed with a stunning shot and an ability to soar above defences, he was expected to perform some astonishing feat of trickery every time he was in possession.\n\nAnd Brazil played such adventurous football, always attacking, constantly looking to score. Who can forget the rythmic chanting of their deliriously happy supporters? ""Bra-zil, cha cha cha, Bra-zil, cha cha cha.""\n\nIt was the 1962 World Cup in Chile when those chants were heard for the first time in Europe on TV and British fans were quick to copy. First club names were shouted out, followed by a burst of clapping. Soon the strains of ""ee-ay-addeo"" echoed round Football League grounds.\n\nThree decades on, the chants may be different. But it was the Brazil of Pele which gave them to the world.\n\nPele was born in the poor district of Tres Coracoes in 1940. His father, known as Dondhino, was a footballer too, but an undistinguished one.\n\nPele was in love with football from the time he learned to kick a ball. But his mother was not so keen. Dondhino earned little money from the game and she wanted something better for her son. Had she got her way, football would have been denied one of its greatest talents.\n\nPele's precocious skill came to the attention of de Brito, a former Brazilian international who began to coach him. In 1954, aged 14, he joined Bauru Athletic Club juniors in Sao Paulo. At 16, despite a knee injury which was to trouble him throughout his career, he moved to Santos where he remained until 1974.\n\nTogether, Pele and Santos were to become legends, touring Europe and playing friendly matches. One of the British sides to entertain them was Sheffield Wednesday. As late as 1972, Pele turned out in his club's famous all-white strip to play one half in a goodwill visit to Hillsborough.\n\nIt was the World Cup of 1958 in Sweden which was to create the stage for Pele's genius. He was 17 and had won his first cap the previous year. He arrived in Sweden with an injury and was held back until Brazil's third and final group match against the Soviet Union in Gothenburg.\n\nBrazil won 2-0, Pele hit the post, laid on the second goal for Vava and a star had been born. The quarter-final was against Wales. Brazil only won 1-0. The scorer was Pele, his shot deflecting off Stuart Williams. It was his first World Cup goal - and he was to score six in a sequence of three games by the time the final was over.\n\nA hat-trick against France in the semi-final was followed by two goals against Sweden in the final. One of them, a breathtaking effort, was described by the football authority Brian Glanville in his book, The Story of the World Cup.\n\n""Catching a high ball in the thick of the pen"

"How to get internet without telephone connection,[with the help of dish] Inform the requirements.?","Cable, Wireless if there's a company in your area, or satellite Dish.  \n\nDirecway is the most popular right now, it's not part of Directv, but it's owned by the same company.  It uses a larger dish than the TV and has a microwave transmitter so it needs to be out of reach of people.  Not dangerous but it has the potential to be.  It uses an adapter (modem) that connects to your computer via ethernet cable so you need an ethernet card, and windows 98 or above supports it.  There is no longer any software involved so nothing is done to your computer except maybe get rid of old software from DSL or cable that sometimes won't allow it, and disabling the firewall for  the computer to pick it up.\n\nThere's also a company called ""wild blue"".  They are new but seem to have a very good product.  Roughly the same idea as direcway.\n\nDirecway can be roof mounted, wall mounted only if the dish can be up high enough and facing the satellite in space (there are several), and pole mounted by a professional installer only due to the safety concerns."

Why do women live more than men?,"""Studying people who live 100 years and more leads Harvard researchers to conclude that menopause is a major determinant of the life spans of both women and men.\n\nWomen's life span depends on the balance of two forces, according to Thomas Perls, a geriatrician at Harvard Medical School. One is the evolutionary drive to pass on her genes, the other is the need to stay healthy enough to rear as many children as possible. ""Menopause draws the line between the two,"" Perls says. It protects older women from the risks of bearing children late in life, and lets them live long enough to take care of their children and grandchildren.""\n\nRead more at the source link."

i want know about love deeply?,"Scientific evidence strongly suggests that to maintain emotional and physical health we have to know how to relate to each other in a caring way. The undeniable evidence is that anger, anxiety and depression, on one hand, and love and intimacy on the other, affect health and recovery from illness. This findings have been elaborated by Dean Ornish MD in Love and Survival. The Scientific Basis for the Healing Power of Intimacy. (1997)  He writes: \n\n“…love and intimacy are at the root of what makes us sick and what makes us well... I am not aware of any factor in medicine -- not diet, not smoking, not stress, not genetics, not drugs, not surgery—that has greater  impact on our quality of life, incidence of illness and premature death from all causes.” \n\nYet, caring (love to be blunt,) which is presumed to be based on a mammalian instinct, strongly allied with survival is fraught with difficulties and is becoming increasingly difficult to exercise in our culture. Hoping to counteract these trends, I endeavor to teach people the simple, basic transactions that constitute the loving experience. This practice is based on three concepts: Strokes, The Stroke Economy and Opening the Heart. \n\nPuzzled by the difficulties that people have when exchanging strokes I came upon Wilhelm Reich’s concept of the ""sex economy,"" which he defined as the intentional squelching of sexual exchanges among German youth for the purpose of promoting conformity. I saw a similar inhibiting trend in our culture, applied to simple affection and love, and called it the ""stroke economy.""\n\nThe stroke economy creates a scarcity of love and affection by imposing a set of rules that govern the exchange of strokes. \n\nThe rules of the stroke economy are:\n\nDon’t give strokes you would like to give.\n\nDon’t ask for strokes you would like to get. \n\nDon’t accept strokes you would like to accept.\n\nDon’t reject strokes you don’t want.\n\nDon’t give yourself strokes.\n\nThese rules are enforced internally and externally. Internally, by what we, in transactional analysis, call the inner Critical Parent. The Critical Parent is an ego state and as such it represents a network of ideas, acquired in childhood which deeply affect love of ourselves and others. These ideas can be seen as ingrained neural networks; ""limbic attractors"" that shape every emotional experience according to an archaic blueprint.\n\nWhile loving patterns are set in childhood, later relationships in which the person establishes a limbic resonance with another are capable of restructuring  the original design. Lewis et al conclude that permanent beneficial restructuring of a persons deeply ingrained limbic brain patterns is possible through long-term individual psychotherapy with a therapist who, for all intents and purposes, needs to be a paragon of limbic virtue."

Please find for me the force acted upon by an infinite conducting plane on a dipole.?,"I'm assuming this is an electric dipole.\n\nSince a dipole can be modeled as a pair of opposite charges +_q separated by a small displacement, you can use the method of images and assume the field produced by the conductor is the same as the original dipole reflected across the plane with the signs of the charges reversed. That means the image dipole is in the same orientation as the original dipole and is at a distance r = 2I from it. The force is attractive (towards the plane). The energy between two dipoles having the same moment p parallel to their separation vector is:\n\nW = -2p^2/r^3\n\nwhere r is the separation distance. The force between two such real dipoles would be (i.e. this is the force on either one):\n\nF = dW/dr = -6p^2/r^4\n\nThis should be the same force experienced by the one dipole in the field produced by the conducting plane. Since r = 2I, this is:\n\nF = (3/8)p^2/I^4"

Stop eating at least 3 hours before you get in bed.  A reclining position with food in your stomach irritates the esophogus.  You would be AMAZED at how much this helps.  Soda or alcohol before sleep is the WORST!\n\n3.  Limit intake of:  Alcohol, Caffience, Carbonated beverages, spicy foods, acidic foods, aspirin (or advil, motrin).   Honestly, I can't stick to this one -- but I've been pretty good keeping #1 and #2, and it's kept my heart burn at bay.

Why are there so many religons? and how do you know which one is right?,"The book of Romans in the Christian bible answers this question pretty well. Humans were created with a natural sense that there is a God. But because of their rebellious nature against Him, they are alienated from Him in their hearts, minds, and consciences. So, being spiritually dead, they are blind to the truths about Him. Therefore, their corrupted minds invent false beliefs about Him. How do you know which one is right? It starts in the heart. Like I've said, it is the prideful and rebellious heart of human kind that is the problem. It is not impossible for you to know the truth, in fact it is so easy that it's heartbreaking that most people miss it. The only people who can find the truth are those who sincerly want it. I will give it to you, but I can't make you accept it. Jesus Christ is the Son of God. He came to be put to death for your sins. You can't justify yourself before God because you, like all humans, are imperfect. What you can do(indeed the only thing you can do) is humble yourself before God and confess that you are a sinner worthy of death, but that you now believe that Jesus has taken your place and removed your sins and guilt forever, never to be brought up before God again. Ask the Lord Jesus to enter your heart and make it new. Then trust that you are pardoned by God and be at peace with Him. Do this and you will have your ""evidence"" in your own heart and mind and life."

I want to ask my parents to borrow some money. What's the best way to go about it?,"First let me say I've been there.  I ran up huge credit card bills and couldn't pay my rent.  My newlywed and I made a choice to move into my parents house and my parents took out a home equity loan that I made the payments for.  In hindsight, I should never have done either.  Moving into their home was too much stress for my spouse and almost cost me my marriage.  Asking for a loan from my folks turned our relatinship from parent / child to king / slave.  They were always questioning why we bought items that they thought were unnecessary, etc.\nThe best thing for you is to make a budget.  I know, it sounds painful, but this is the way to get your finances under control and you will be able to maintain your pride and integrity.  Living within your means will open your eyes and help you to find money that you can use to pay down your debts.  If you can get a job at night and / or on weekends, do it.  Deliver pizzas, bartend, whatever you can do to make some extra cash.\n\nKeep your chin up.  You can do it by yourself."

How do I tell my wife she is seriously overweight and is sexually unappealing to me?,"Are things or situations putting a lot of stress on your wife? Have you and your wife had any kids yet? Have you gained weight yourself? What things have happened in your lives such as eating habits and changes in lifestyle that might have encouraged this weight gain? \nFor one don't divorce her. Two, hopefully you married her on a higher level beyond her looks even though that also was an attraction you had towards her. Also for her to ask you she is already aware of the fact that she has gained this weight and would probably would like to hear such things like, ""We can do it together, take it one step at a time,etc..."" Do things with her like eating healthy, and exercising, so she knows she has your support in it. Also, try different sexual positions, be more exotic and make love to her because she wants it not just because you want it. Sex can also be a very exciting and fun way to lose weight. If all this doesn't work and you still don't find her sexually attractive then this is beyond her weight and I would advice you get help."

Who conquered Mt Everest for the first time & When?,"Mt. Everest was conquored by Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay in 1953, as widely recognized and recorded in history. But, this topic is controvercial.On June 8, 1924, George Mallory and Andrew Irvine, both of the United Kingdom, made an attempt on the summit from which they never returned. Noel Odell, the expedition's geologist, wrote in his diary that he ""saw M&I on the ridge, nearing base of final pyramid"" at 12:50 pm that day. In 1979 climber Wang Hongbao of China revealed to a companion that he had discovered a body in 1975 thought at the time to be Irvine's, but he unfortunately was killed in a fall the very next day before he could provide precise details to anyone else.\n\nIn 1999, however, the famous Mallory and Irvine Research Expedition found instead Mallory's body in the predicted search area near the old Chinese camp. Controversy has raged in the mountaineering community as to whether the duo may have made it to the top of the world, 29 years before the confirmed ascent (and of course, safe descent) of Everest by Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay in 1953."

I guess I just wonder that cause often times I find myself siding with my male friends and thinking my women friends are just messed up in their thinking. Maybe its not a male/female thing. Maybe it really is just how each of us programmed. I venture to say that I'm sure there are women out there that might quite possibly see things your way......and love it! Don't give up hope on that.

how do companies make money by giving software for free?,"Depends on the company.\n\nThe AVG and AntiVir free anti-virus software is given away free to individuals to advertise the business versions of those products.\n\nA lot of open source software (gcc, xemacs, etc.) is given away free and the programmers charge for a manual teling you all the cool tricks under the surface. Red Hat, SUSE and IBM all support Linux, so can invest in the software on the back of massive support contracts with people running Linux.\n\nSoftware such as Firefox is supported by selling merchandise and by getting a cut from Google for having the Google bar installed by default and Google as the default home page.\n\nOpera's free edition used to be supported by adverts in the browser, for which they were payed. Many small companies go down this route.\n\nThere are also some dodgy pieces of software which you can download for free that install rubbish onto your computer, that either dials premium rate numbers using your modem, or steals your information to sell to criminals. These tend to be either games or pornography based downlaods, but can be anything. So long as you know where you're downloading from, you can avoid these."

will the mets win the world series this year?,"Right now they have a 1/30 chance, which is roughly three percent.  \n\nThere are other variables such as luck, injuries, and performance that can raise this number.  \n\nIf the Mets go to the playoffs at the end of the regular season they will have theoretically a 1/8 chance which is roughly 12 percent.  \n\nIf they go to the World Series, they will have roughly a 1/2 chance depending on such things as whether they have homefield advantage, a healthy pitching staff, and guys that step it up big in the playoffs.  \n\nThere is a high probablity your Mets will not win the World Series this year.  But you never know and this is Baseball so anytihng can happen."

How do planes fly upside down?,"More than Bernoulli's principle and wing shape (airfoil) are at work in keeping a plane in the air. The main criteria is the  ""angle of attack"" of the wing. That is, the angle at which the wing meets the air passing by it. When a plane is flying, its wing is always at a positive angle of attack; the leading edge of the wing is higher relative to the air going over it than the trailing edge. So the air pushes the wing up.  When the plane is inverted, the angle of attack must be great enough to overcome the ""negative lift""  created by the airfoil. This is accomplished by adjusting the elevator. Inverted flight will always require the input of down elevator."

Is there a recursive algorithm that generates all the permutations of a given string ?,"Here's a java solution that uses recursion.  The permute function takes two arguments: a done portion and a todo portion.   The basic idea is that each of the characters in the todo portion could be the next character.  So, at each step, n recursive calls are made, where n is the length of todo.  Each call chooses a different character as the next character to go into the done portion.  So, the first time the number of recursive calls will equal the number of characters in the initial string.  Each of these calls will make further recursive calls equal to the number of characters in the initial string minus one.  And so on.  Thus, the number of solutions will be n! = n*n-1*n-2*...*1, where n is the number of characters in the initial string.\n\nThe program below was tested with java's sun compiler 1.4.2.\npublic class perm\n{\n  public perm(String S)\n  {     \n    permute("""", S);\n  }     \n  public void permute(String done, String todo) \n  {     \n    if ((todo.length()==0)||\n        (todo.equals("""")))\n      System.out.println(done);\n    else        \n    {           \n      for (int i=0; i<todo.length(); i++)\n      {                 \n        String c = todo.substring(0,1);\n        todo = todo.substring(1);\n        permute(done+c, todo);  \n        todo = todo + c;        \n      }                 \n    }           \n  }     \n  public static void main(String args[])\n  {     \n    if ((args.length==0)||\n        (args[0].length()==0)||\n        (args[0].equals("""")))\n      return;           \n    perm p = new perm(args[0]);\n  }     \n}"

"When did people start calling each other ""dude""?","The original meaning of this American-born word is still its first definition today, 'a man excessively concerned with his clothes, grooming and manners'. I thought that dude was an old word, but I thought wrong. I guess it's because the word sounds vaguely like duke, and all those titles of royalty are fairly ancient. But dude first appeared in print in 1878. The Random House Historical Dictionary of American Slang cites an 1877 reference in a letter--not published, however, until 1988--from the painter and sculptor Frederick Remington: ""Don't send me any more [drawings of] women or any more dudes."" By 1883, dude was in wider circulation. In June of that year, its popularity was noted by Massachusetts’ North Adams Transcript: ""The new coined word 'dude'...has travelled over the country with a great deal of rapidity since but two months ago it grew into general use in New York."" By 1885, it had established a strong enough foothold to appear in Ulysses S. Grant's Personal Memoirs: ""Before the car I was in had started, a dapper little fellow--he would be called a dude at this day--stepped in.""\n\nFairly soon, a dude came to mean an Easterner or a city slicker, and especially someone who vacations on a ranch--thus dude ranch.\n\nDude also spawned quite a few odd derivatives, such as dudedom, dudeness, dudery, dudism, dudish, dudess and dudine--the last two meaning 'female dudes'. None of these is in general use today. I thought dudess might have had a revival as part of the surfer culture; however, Malia Alani of Surfer Magazine said no. She e-mailed me that ""I don't think there is a feminine word for dude. A traditional Hawaiian word used commonly for women surfers is wahine."" (Note: following the appearance of the column, several readers have informed me that dudette is the feminine form of dude. A quick search of Nexis confirms the word is, in fact, current. Thanks, everyone.)\n\nThe meaning of the word as 'a male person' has been in wide use since the 1960's. This is from a 1968 book called College Drug Scene: ""And I got into symbolic logic and semantics with a cat who had studied with Korzybski and electronics from a dude who had an Associate of Arts degree in anthropology from 1941."" The use of dude in direct address to a male began much earlier. This is from a 1945 book called Silversides: ""Hey, dude, there's a ship out here!""\n\nThe origin of dude is uncertain. There are a few speculations, the most interesting of which, to my mind, is from A Dictionary of Slang by Eric Partridge. He says that it may have come from the word dud--which, at the time, meant 'a delicate weakling'--""influenced by attitude."""

A client connects to the proxy server, then requests a connection, file, or other resource available on a different server. The proxy provides the resource either by connecting to the specified server or by serving it from a cache. In some cases, the proxy may alter the client's request or the server's response for various purposes."

The difference is that the structure will let users add specific styles to each type, and add links and pictures for reviews.\n\nThese styles and tags ensure that movie and book reviews don't look like calendar or journal entries, and that each content type can be quickly recognized and processed by automated search services and other applications.

"i want to take classes to become an auto insurance agent, where do i look?","You'll want to get 3 licenses:\nP&C license (Property & Casualty)\nLife & Health license\nSecurities License (Depending on the state that you live in, this could mean a Series 6 & 63 OR Series 7)\nThe reason is that most auto insurance agencies now sell auto, home, life and investments.  Even if you put a specialist in your office to sell the other stuff you will still need to have the licenses to get commissions on them.\nI would talk to Erie Insurance.  They sell as independent agents and offer more than one company.  This can be very important.  Lets say you own a State Farm agency and then six months from now they have a huge rate increase.  You lose half your customers and can't do anything about it.  Go independent and those same customers can call you up and you can rewrite them with a different company.

what DLLs really do?,"A library of common code that can be used by mutiple applications at the same time. \nSo, if you are a major software vender, like e.g. Microsoft, you will not need to ship all of your application with multiple copies of the same, underlying, code. That code is put into DLLs. The opposite of DLLs is staticly linked libraries, which are bundled directly into the applications, hence making them bigger."

where can i get a list of doctors that take tenncare?,"Given all the changes in Tenncare, that's an interesting and vexing question. I've been looking at the TennCare site (1st URL below) for a while, and it's not particularly useful. You might try their Family Assistance telephone number (866-311-4287), which is from their Important numbers page (2nd URL). Over on the State of TN xite, I found a list of HMOs whose doctors accept TennCare (3rd URL). A fairly generic county-by-county database of health resources (bigger things like health departments & community clinics) can be found at the 4th URL. Finally, the TennHelp site (5th URL) offers a fairly involved search for providers. The 6th URL points to the last step in the search process, where you just choose what county you're in and hit the Search Now button. The cadeuceus icon beside search results indicates providers who offer ""reduced-cost or free health services to low-income or uninsured Tennesseans."""
"“A runner can never reach the end of a racecourse”, is it true?","****Edit to clarify******\nWhile the professor below is correct, and the poster below him is partially correct, you can only assume that the course is complete if you include the finite answer as an infinate series.\n\nThe prime example of this is that 1.999 repeating is NOT equal to 2.0 unless 2.0 is infinite, ie 2.000000 repeating.  You can not deal with unlike in infinate numbers.  Ie, you can not translate an infinite number to a finite number and still have the same premise.  \n\nSo unless the data deals with an infinate equality, the runner never will reach his destination.\n*********end edit***********\n\nWhile it is true that the runner will finish the course, as we know that every course has a start and ending point; in regards to math, unless the start and end are constants and predefined, the answer is simple:  THe runner will never reach the end.  The reason for this is that without a predefined set of start and end, the course is continous."

"""Getting a common nation to whole world"" how much u believe it to be worthy?","If you are suggesting that the world simply be one giant nation, I think it's a nice idea--but one that would never work.\n\nThe world is an unbelievably complex place--and that's when no one on it is trying to destroy anyone.  Since that seems never to happen, it only complicates it further.  I think the best that we can hope for is that those nations who can have enough good sense to elect leaders who can truly think globally and fully appreciate the problems and needs of people far away."

What states have no law requiring breaks for workers?,"Few states require lunch or rest breaks, if any.  I know that for most employees over the age of 18 in even more politically liberal states like New Jersey do not require rest breaks.  Of course, many states regulate such for minors, but few for workers over the age of 18.\n\nI've included a link to a Department of Labor chart that gives requirements for each state on meal breaks.  It's a pretty short list: California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Kentucky, Maine, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New York, North Dakota, Oregon, Rhode Island, Tennessee, Washington, and West Virginia.\n\nFor rest breaks, the list shrinks to California, Colorad, Kentucky, Minnesota, Nevada, Oregon, and Washington.\n\nPerhaps few regulate is because most employers voluntarily give rest breaks to employees to make work more bearable.  Perhaps few regulate because unions, often providing the strongest labor law components in states, don't really care if non-unionized labor is forced to receive breaks, but really works hard to ensure that its own members are protected through contract agreements and bargaining.  Regardless, I hope this information helps."

What is the most difficult topic in upper-division college mathematics?,"It largely depends on the individual. Courses that emphasize theory (proving theorems) are generally harder than courses that merely involve performing calculations. There are basically four branches of mathematics: Analysis (calculus), Algebra, Geometry/Topology, and Foundational (Set theory and some metamathematical stuff). These are all quite abstract on the upper division level but often times an individual will have a higher aptitude in one or two over the others. I, for instance, found a fairly advanced abstract algebra course much easier than an introduction to analysis class. Also keep in mind that people that are drawn to math pure mathematics can usually get through the undergraduate material without too much difficulty. Individuals who are taking advanced mathematics courses to satisfy the requirements of some related program (education, engineering, business, etc) may find some of the more abstract material quite challenging. If your question pertains mostly to the latter case, then I'd just say that a good rule of thumb is that the difficulty of the course is probably directly proportional to the number prerequites. Differential Equations would probably be a good example since it should require about 3 semesters of calculus and linerar algrebra at least."
"Is ""one of plural nouns that has"" correct?","Options 1 and 3 are grammatically correct.  One does not need to use the perfect tense in this case, but if one does, they should use the third person plural for that particular example, as the subject of ""to happen"" is ""events"", not ""one""."

How to combat competition which underprices well below margins and has no business ethics?,"In my experience, companies like this eventually get their's in the long run...generally if they lack ethics in their dealings with clients they also lack it internally...in their Accounting and Finance and HR functions too. You have seen a lot of companies who acted this way make headlines within the past few years (Enron, Worldcom, Lucent, etc), so we know that it does eventually does catch up with them...\n\nHowever, none of that solves your short-term dilemma so what I would recommend is a multi-part strategy that includes a lot of emphasis on what you do well. Differentiate your products, differentiate your services, stand head-and-shoulders over your competition in providing a great experience. Sure you could try to compete on margins, but in the end that only makes you have to sell harder and faster and could eventually bankrupt the company. \n\nI believe that just as there is room for cheaper and faster there is also room for creating a great buying / purchasing experience. Why else would companies like Mercedes Benz, Audi and BMW be around? They don't try to compete with Honda, Hyundai and Nissan. They cater to a specific clientele and show the value of their products...from the sales process to the service cycle, I think a similar approach, while a lot of work may be the only way to compete effectively.\n\nIf you spend your time fighting competitors like you have described above you waste valuable time that you could be better servicing your existing clients. Focus on them and they will in turn become your best source of leads and word of mouth advertising."

what is the best game activity for a one year old boy?,"Playing with blocks, balls, cars, stuffed animals, singing and any physical activity he can do are all great. Peak-a-boo, naming the objects, people and animals arond him are also great. Carrying him and dancing (gently) are also fun and good for you too. Read, for a short time, every day. Your library surely has sturdy board books with colorful pictures to look at. \nTake him outside and help him explore around the yard, park, wherever. \nAt that age it takes time to absorb new information, so don't rush, take your time and repeat things that hold his attention.\nSee what your son responds to best.\nThe games you play now will not be much fun for you but the relationship and mental foundation you are builidng now will pay off later.

"Is the Catholic Church is the true Christian & Historical church that Jesus established? If not, then why?","The Catholic Church is NOT the first Christian church and is certainly not the one that Christ established or would have approved of. Their teachings, practices, and doctrines are not in harmony with the scriptures that Christ cherished so dearly. In the first century Christian congregation there was no allowance for a pope, there was no blasphemous teaching of a trinity, and Mary certainly wasn't venerated as she is today.\n\nPeter is not the ""rock"" that Christ was referring to. Catholics always tend to get this scripture incorrect. The context (the surrounding verses) are speaking about Jesus Christ, not Peter. Christ was simply talking to Peter about it, not making Peter the cornerstone of the congregation because Jesus himself is the head of the congregation."

Then randomly pick a queen, and search along the 9 directions it can move. If you find an enemy queen capture it. If not, check each of your remaining queens for capture possibilities. If there are no captures search for a move which will set you up for a capture on the next move.\n\nNow repeat this for the other side.\n\nKeep looping until either one side wins, or moves repeat more than say ten times.\n\nGood luck!"

How many litres of water per minute would flow through a half inch pipe when the water pressure is at 0.5 MPa?,"Your problem can not be solved accurately unless you also state the length and roughness of the pipe.  Picture two pipes, one ten feet long and the other the length of a football field.  Clearly the longer pipe will greatly resist flow.

what is global warming ? how does it heat up the earth?,"Global warming has two main applications. The first is that there are certain gases that trap heat in the atmosphere, warming planets. This is known to take place on Venus, Earth, and the gas giants. Earth is the hospitable place that it is because of global warming.\n\nThis takes place because of greenhouse gases, which allow radiation from the sun to pass through the atmosphere and warm the surface of the earth. The surface then re-radiates this energy back towards space in the infrared spectrum. This energy would escape and our planet would be as cold as the moon, were it not for the greenhouse gases (mainly CO2, ozone, methane, and water vapor). They absorb the infrared energy and radiate it back to earth, increasing the overall amount of radiation hitting the earth's surface, keeping it warm day and night.\n\nThat this takes place is clear and indisputable. There is simply too little energy coming from the sun to account for our planet's temperature. The controversial point is when global warming is applied to the current rise in average global temperature that has taken place over the past 50 so years. Most scientists believe that warming of the planet is due to increases in greenhouse gases, mainly CO2, mainly due to human activities on earth."

Why were impeachment proceedings started against President Clinton?,"Some of these answers humorously try to answer the question.  President Clinton was investigated by Kenneth Starr for a variety of allegations, including sexual harassment allegations brought forth by Paula Jones.  In the depositions Clinton made, he denied under oath that he ever had an affair with Monica Lewinsky, which related to the sexual harassment charges on sexual impropriety.  When it came forward that Lewinsky had physical evidence that proved the affair, Clinton recanted his story.  Starr believed that a four charges had sufficient proof to be legitimate grounds for impeachment: perjury, obstruction of justice, witness tampering, and abuse of authority.\n\nIndependent Counsel Kenneth Starr brought these charges before the House, and the House impeaced Clinton on the perjury and obstruction of justice charges.  The Senate failed to convict Clinton on either charge.\n\nThe Answers.com link below provides a concise summary of the events and justification that led to impeachment."

Should i exercise ISO stock every other year or every year to minimize tax?,"Whether you're hit with the AMT or not, the real answer is that you should exercise the shares when you are ready to sell them, there's no other reason for you to exercise shares unless you're leaving the company.  \n\nThere are tax and AMT issues, but without understanding your full income picture there's no real way to answer that question.\n\nI know of several people that exercised stock, held it and then placed margin buys against the value of the shares, when their stock tanked the margins were called and at least one of these individuals had to sell their house to pay off the margin call.

The site of Santiago de Compostela itself may have been perhaps a Roman shrine.\n\nTo this day many of the pilgrims continue on from Santiago de Compostela to the Atlantic coast of Galicia to finish their pilgrimage at Cape Finisterre (Fisterra in Galician) which is almost the westernmost point of Europe. The fact that the Romans called it Finisterrae (literally the end of the world in Latin) indicates that it was seen as a sacred place.\n\nPagan influences can still be seen along the Way; indeed some of the modern-day pilgrims themselves are attracted more to the pagan legends associated with the Way rather than the Christian."""
What are liverworts?,"The name ""liverwort"" derives from the Anglo-Saxon word ""lifer, meaning liver and ""wyrt"", the Anglo-Saxon word for plant.

What makes free downloadable browsers better than Internet Explorer?,"I never saw the point in switching either, until our school kept pushing Firefox.  I tried it, and now I'm sticking to it for these reasons:\n\n1. I have a high resolution monitor making it hard to see pictures & text.  In Firefox, I can zoom pictures & text.\n\n2. Sometimes I view foreign websites, and I use a built-in translator to translate the whole website in 1-click.\n\n3. You can open new pages in tabs, so it looks cleaner.\n\n4. There is a portable version of Firefox that I can put on a flash drive & surf with all my bookmarks & settings on a public computer.  Then I don't have to worry about clearing cookies & history after I'm done since I'm surfing off my flash drive.  http://portableapps.com/\n\n5. You can customize Firefox to do different things that IE doesn't support yet, using extensions here: https://addons.mozilla.org/extensions/\n\n...and finally...\n\n6. I hate Microsoft."

"my ears are real wide, is there anything i can do to make them less wide, like position them a way over night.",You can hide them by growing your hair longer. Or you can have cosmetic surgery. \n\nOtherwise you're pretty much stuck with double-sided tape or a staple gun. (Just kidding...don't staple your head)  :)
Why 220V amplitude for domestic ac circuits?,"I could suggest several considerations.  First P=IE, that is Power equals the electrical current (I in Amperes) times the voltage (E in volts).  Current is like the flow of water in a pipe and voltage is like the pressure causing the water to flow.  If you use the water to drive a hydraulic piston (say to hoist an automobile for repair) you can use either a small piston and high pressure or a larger piston and lower pressure.  Which is more cost effective?\n\nIn the United States, electric power is delivered to neighborhoods using three wires (three phases) strung along telephone (power) poles.  Only two of the wires are led to a single residence but the neighborhood must use all three wires to balance load on the wires.  Within a house electricity passes from only one wire (phase) to ground or earth to light a lightbulb which uses 110 volts.  The clothes dryer that needs far more power is connected between two of the supply wires (two phase) and to ground to supply 220 volts.  A machine shop might connect a very large motor to all three supply wires to obtain even more power at 440 volts.\n\nSix volts or even 12 volts DC in an automobile circuit can be touched with little danger.  It is less dangerous to accidentally touch a 110 volt AC wire than a 220 volt source and 440 volts is most dangerous.\n\nTherefore, the selection of voltage depends in part on safety and then on the size of the job to be tackled and also economic factors.  The higher the required current, the larger the required wires using expensive copper.  Increasing the voltage reduces the needed current and reduces the needed copper to do a given job.  The higher the required voltage, the more expensive the required electrical insulation will be.  Engineers must determine the best trade off of many factors."
How may I call someone from my computer to their regular telephone?,"Use VOIP software.  You can download Skype software for free and call other computers for free but there is a small fee if you want to call land line or cell phones.  RadioShack has a starter Skype VOIP kit which includes the software, a USB VOIP handset and a 30 minute calling card so you can call regular phones.  The Skype kit is $40."
What is the preffered route to anodization of Alumina?,"The overall reaction that takes place during  anodization is:\n\n2Al + 3H2O ==> Al2O3 + 3H2\n\nThis is the sum of the separate reactions at each electrode. The reactions at the anode occur at the metal/oxide and oxide/ electrolyte interfaces. The ions that make up the oxide are mobile under the high field conditions. At the metal/oxide interface the inward moving oxygen anions react with the metal:\n\n2Al + 3O2- ==> Al2O3 + 6e-\n\nAt the oxide/electrolyte interface outward moving aluminum cations react with water:\n\n2Al3+ + 3H2O ==> Al2O3 + 6H+\n\n(In case of aluminum dissolution into the electrolyte during porous film formation, the anodic reaction is:\n\n2Al ==> 2Al3+ + 6e-)\n\nThe reaction at the cathode is hydrogen gas evolution:\n\n6H+ + 6e- ==> 3H2\n\nThe sealing reaction can be written as:\n\nAl2O3 + 3H2O ==> 2AlOOH*H2O \n\nchk the link.it is very informative."
Do our representatives retain any honesty/integrity once they are elected into office?,"It seems that the longer they are in office, the more influence they gain, but the more they seem to be seduced by the power they control.  Of course the only way to retain it is to stay in office, and that means money.  The temptation to take help from wealthy special interests is almost too much to resist.  Then, of course, begins the slippery slide down from integrity to political punch line.\n\nThis doesn't mean that all politicians are corrupt; it just means it's pretty hard to tell which ones are honest and which aren't.\n\nThe problem is how to fix it--if it ever is.  The only way is with REAL campaign finance reform that completely changes the way candidates get money.  But such change must be enacted by Congress, and there's just too much self-interest involved to get any real change enacted.  So there you go..."
how do i make an offer to pay off back child support?,"its hard to talk to these people because they dont want to hear it.  they just want to know how much you make and keep taking their cut from it.  I say, you find some place that pays low on the regular 9 to 5, and pays really good on the over time...because over time u get to keep ...my dad once asked them how much he owed...they said...13,700 and some change...he paid it in fulll and they said that he still owes...he  gave reciepts and everything....if they pretend they cant find it..what cna you do?  never pay them off period...just allowe them to take a monthly thing...either that...or take custody of the children if you can.....arrange that you will take care of the children in compensation for ur child support that you owe......slowly they will see you are willing and they will not be soo hard on you..but the first step is difficult...u always need a lawyer...if you dont have money and use their lawyers..never tell him/her the truth because they work for the child support people..when asked how much you make, you can tell them but always throw your expenses high...since you like to drink a keg of beer each night...etc etc...."

What is the majority sentiment when it comes to the Gospel according to Thomas and other gnostic writings?,"No, Thomas does not allude to the fact that Jesus was just a man.  The concept in fact would be contrary to most Gnostic believes.  Here's a quick quote from Thomas:\n\n(77) Jesus says:\n(1) ""I am the light that is over all. I am the All.\nThe All came forth out of me. And to me the All has come.""\n(2) ""Split a piece of wood – I am there.\n(3) Lift the stone, and you will find me there.""\n\nThomas is a ""sayings gospel.""  Unlike the Gospels that are in the Bible, it has no narrative.  It is just one Jesus quote after another.  Many scholars assign a first century date to Thomas, so it is at least possible that it is very old.\n\nGnostics believe that the material world is evil, and therefore God would never take the form of a man.  Gnostics have what is called a docetic view of Christ.  That is that he only appeared to be human, and had none of the actual physical characteristics of a human.  The goal of Gnostics is to escape the limitations and evil of this physical world and return to the spiritual world they believe we came from.\n\nGnosis.org is a great resource for gnostic information and has several copies of the Gospel of Thomas"

why the Us did not sign the Kioto Protocol?,"The Kyoto Protocol is unfair and misleading. America would have been very heavily taxed and it's economy slowed down greatly if it had signed. The rest of the world argued that the US should pay the lion's share because it contributes more pollution than anyone else. What everyone disregards is that the US also produces more than anyone else. It's all proportional. It also excluded developing countries with no environmental policies whatsoever from contributing. If any country in the developing world had an economy as productive as the US, they would produce far more pollution than the US does. The Kyoto Protocol was a blatant and transparent attempt to hurt the US economy in the name of a problem that nobody has even been able to confirm."

how do i disable the l1 and l2 caches on my computer?,"When your computer is getting itself going, the BIOS usually places a brief message on the screen telling you how to activate the BIOS setup menu to show up. The message might say something like this: ""Press F2 for setup."" (F2 is just used as an example.)\n\n   The idea is simple, but the execution sometimes can be frustrating. You have to press the key before the BIOS finishes starting up the PC. I usually get my timing right, but sometimes I have to keep hitting the right key a few dozen times before the BIOS notices all my efforts. \n\nOnce you are in your BIOS toggle through the screens until you see where you can can disable your L1 and L2 Caches.\n\nExit and Save.\n\nYour caches will be disabled."
Can somebody be brought back to life after being cryogenically frozen? Or is it a hoax?,"well probably... well they would still be alive while frozen, if they can get the temperatures low enough, it would slow everything down enough so that the person would not die because the processes in the body would have all slowed down tremendously.  this would not prevent aging and the biological processes, so the person would starve and stuff eventually, but it would slow everything down so dramatically that the person could last for years and years while their body only goes through the processes of like one day or so.  The temperature would also have to be dropped very very quickly this way the body wouldnt have a chance to realize it was being frozen.  The only problem would be then to unfreeze the person very very rapidly back to their normal temperature so the body is never in that in between state where it would start to shut off blood supply to the extremeties(legs and arms) in order to conserve heat for the organs(this is the normal response to temperatures that are too cold), because then the person may have to have something amputated. but if they can just unfreeze them super-fast without using too much heat(because if they used too much heat, it could burn them or denature the persons enzymes closer to the surface which would kill them.)  with technology on the express lane that it seems to be on now, im sure they can develop a method for this rapid freezing and rapid thawing.  i mean, think of computers and such, technology is going crazy."
