Beggining programmer. Not even considered a junior developer as of yet. I am my second programming course at UML Intro to C part 2. I am heading towards C++ C# development. I am interested in Game Development. I am looking from some examples of code and perhaps some guidance in creating my own game. Some thing small and fun to start with. I need something to keep me as interested in programming as I was when I started this course. Because I have got to tell ya this stuff is DRY!!!!!!

I used Visual Studio and C# to develope a Tic Tac Toe game. I made logic to have it play strategic or random plays. You can do this using a Windows Form in Visual Studio. Download a free eval version of VS 2005 from Microsoft's website. At first try to make games that are text based until you get the logic down well. Then once you get that down you can start some more graphic intense games, but for those you might try using Flash as it seems to work better with graphics. Good Luck!


Jonathan r cook was arrestred for probation violation and sent me a letter from fairfield union ave jail.  when i ansered my letter was returned.  all that i find on the net is that he was transferred, but it does not say where he was sent.i believe that he was born 09/04/72.

California does not maintain a searchable database but if you need to locate an inmate within the California Department of Corrections, please call (916) 445-6713, which is available 24 hours a day. You must have either the inmate's CDC number, or the inmate's full name and date of birth to receive information. The Inmate Locator/ID Warrants will provide an inmate's location, mailing addresses and relevant phone numbers. The Inmate Locator/ID Warrants will not provide any future release date information. Please note that for new or transferring inmates it can take up to seven business days to update location information. \n\nIf that doesn't help, go to the forum marked "Lost in the System" at http://www.prisontalk.com\nGood luck\n\nor try www.vinelink.com but I find them next to useless... I tested the system by entering the information I know to be current for four inmates in various facilities, only one hit and that person is still awaiting trial...I'm not impressed.


no one should put a time limit or expect anything in any certain amount of time. it will happen when you are both comfortable with one another. dont try to rush it, four weeks is not a long time. if you want to charish that moment then wait. building momentum and imagination is so sexy. i think it means more to wait and build on something more than sex. wait cause you already know it will be worth it.


I would like tobe explained about it. thanks...

100%.  The Cable News Network, usually referred to as CNN, is a cable television network founded in 1980 by Ted Turner.  It is a division of the Turner Broadcasting System, owned by Time Warner. CNN introduced the concept of 24-hour television news coverage, and celebrated its 25th anniversary on June 1, 2005.\n\nIn terms of cumulative Nielsen ratings, CNN rates as America's #1 cable news network, however, it is superseded by Fox News in long-term viewers. (cite?) CNN broadcasts primarily from its headquarters at the CNN Center in Atlanta, and from studios in New York City and Washington, DC. As of December 2004, it is available in 88.2 million U.S. households and more than 890,000 U.S. hotel rooms. Globally, the network has combined branded networks and services that are available to more than 1.5 billion people in over 212 countries and territories.\n\nSince CNN's launch on June 1, 1980, the network has expanded its reach to a number of cable and satellite television networks (such as CNN Headline News), 12 web sites, two private place-based networks (such as CNN Airport Network), and two radio networks. The network has 42 bureaus around the world and more than 900 affiliates worldwide. CNN has launched many regional and foreign-language networks around the world. CNN debuted its news website CNN.com (then referred to as CNN Interactive) on August 30, 1995.\n\nCNN's global reputation was greatly enhanced in 1991 during the Gulf War, where its saturation coverage was carried around the world. However controversy arose years later when Eason Jordan, chief news executive of CNN, admitted that CNN had kept quiet about some of Saddam Hussein's atrocities and threats in order to keep its Baghdad Bureau open. CNN's integrity and bias came under fire during the 2004 U.S. Presidential Election, when two of Presidential candidate John Kerry's advisors, Paul Begala and James Carville, were allowed to host CNN's Crossfire show during the election. In an effort to quell another blossoming controversy, Eason Jordan resigned from CNN on February 11, 2005, after making defamatory innuendo suggesting that the U.S. military was "targeting" journalists in Iraq.\n\nA television movie, Live from Baghdad, was later made about the network's coverage of the war. Coverage of this and other conflicts and crises of the early 1990s (including, perhaps most famously, the Battle of Mogadishu) led to the coining of the term "the CNN effect", which testified to the perceived impact its pioneering real time, 24 hour news coverage had in influencing the decision-making processes of the American government.\n\nCNN International now provides regional editions of its news service in response to foreign demand for less U.S.-centric news coverage, rivaling services such as BBC World (CNN's main global competitor). CNN International uses local reporters in many of its news-gathering centers, though they cover stories from an international (some would still say U.S.) perspective.\n\nOn September 11, 2001, CNN was the first network to break news of what would prove to be the September 11 attacks. Anchor Carol Lin was on the air at that time.\n\n \nPaula ZahnCNN launched two specialty news channels for the American market which would later close amid competitive pressure: CNNSI shut down in 2002, and CNNfn shut down after nine years on the air in December 2004.\n\nCNN has also been parodied. See for instance, Groland and CNNNN. Many movies outside of the Turner Broadcasting Network also mention CNN in their storylines. Ted Turner doesn't mind as long as they don't use CNN for promotional purposes or for malicious use.


I was with a guy a while back,and in the beginning we were really into each other!Well we were always around his older brother,I began to fall for his older brother and well we started seeing each other in secret,finally I told my boyfriend because I could not handle it anymore!Well we ended up breaking up,the whole time I was with him,the older brother was wanting us to break up so that we could see each other without it being wrong!Well after me and my ex broke up,I stil continued to see the older brother,but yet he doesnt want anyone to know because his mom found out about our secret love afair and does not approve,which is understandable but at the same time I shouldn't have to play high school games with a 31 year old male!Well people found out about us,they were messing with him and he admitted to us seeing each other, he blamed it on me and I found out he truth I ended up getting mad and asked him why he didnt tell me from the beginning and he said he didnt know what to say...

Dating brothers was a big mistake.  I'm not real sure you can fix this.  Your best bet is if the two brothers talk and can be ok with it.  If they can be ok then eventually everyone else will follow suit.


What speed of crash do you get whiplash? 1mph? 2mph? 10mph?\nIn particular where a car crashes into the back of you...

here is a great website with lots of info \ngood luck\nAfter a third of a century of federal standards mandating the safety performance of everything from bumpers to dashboard controls, it might be reasonable to conclude that occupants are walking away from low-speed crashes without significant injury.  The opposite is happening:  a General Motors study found that many injuries are occurring in crashes at speeds below 8 miles per hour.  Indeed, "whiplash" injuries, the soft tissue damage commonly suffered in these low-speed collisions, now account for more than half (53 percent) of all motor vehicle crash-related injuries.\n\nAlthough these injuries are typically classified as minor (AIS 1, the least severe rating), 27 percent of the 2.9 million persons who sustain low-speed injuries each year still have neck pain three years later.  The injuries often lead to permanent disability, and as one Swedish study concluded, "This could be the case even when the neck injuries are primarily assessed as minor."  A New England Journal of Medicine editorial noted in 1994 that 20 to 40 percent of people with whiplash have symptoms that last for years, and some never recover.\n\nAlthough rear end collisions account for only 5 percent of all automobile fatalities, whiplash is both most likely to occur in such collisions and, when it does, more likely to cause permanent damage:  one study found that almost one in 10 whiplash victims in rear end collisions are permanently disabled, compared to fewer than 4 in 10 in non-rear end impacts. \n\n\n\nThe 'How' Debate\n\nIn whiplash, the cervical spine apparently suffers soft tissue damage when the head snaps backward at the same time as the shoulders rebound forward off the seat back during the collision, but the sequence of events is in dispute.  Partly this is because the dynamics of low-speed collisions have not been studied as thoroughly as high-speed collisions.  A complicating factor is that human head and neck actions are more complex than those of  Hybrid III crash test dummies.\n\nThe traditional view - that whiplash occurs when crash forces first flex the neck and then hyperextend it backward - is "both incomplete and inaccurate," according to Biodynamics Research Corp., which reports that its low-speed tests "suggest a compression-tension injury causation mechanism."  Still other researchers say "the opposite (of flexion-hyperextension) is true,…that flexion sometimes follows the initial extension of the cervical spine."\n\n\n\n\nSeveral factors appear to affect the severity of whiplash:\n\n\n\n• Ramping.When the occupant slides up the seatback during the collision, it adds to the whiplash motion. \n   \n• Gender, Age, Height.Women (probably because their necks tend to be less muscular than men's) and older and taller people are more likely to sustain the injury. \n   \n• Turning. An occupant whose head is turned to the side may suffer greater injury because the whiplash motion turns the head even more.  \n   \n• Awareness. Occupants who were aware of the impending crash suffered fewer neck injuries in one study. \n   \n• Small Cars. Occupants of smaller cars are more likely to suffer whiplash than those in larger cars. \n   \n• Vehicle Stiffness. "Stiff" vehicles that do not absorb sufficient crash forces in low-speed impacts may reduce vehicular damages, but they transmit more crash forces to occupants, increasing the risk of injuries, including whiplash. \n   \n• Seat and Head Restraint Design. Seat and head restraint stiffness and height can aggravate whiplash injuries.  \n\nWhiplash: Faked or Real?\n\nAuto insurers tend to blame increased whiplash injury claims on fraud.  They say up to half of all fraudulent claims are for whiplash, noting that such claims are rising while vehicle damage claims are decreasing.  The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, while acknowledging that some neck sprains


WE WERE NEVER MARRIED AND HE TOLD ME IF I WANTED TO MOVE IT WOULD BE OUT OF THE QUESTION BECAUSE HE WOULD MAKE IT IMPOSSIBLE TO MOVE OR DO ANYTHING WITHOUT HIM BEING IN CONTROL, CAN THE COURTS GIVE HIM JOINT CUSTODY OR EVEN VISITATION RIGHTS THAT PUTS LIMITS TO WHERE I CAN RESIDE?

It does not matter if the two of you were never married, if the kiddos are his then he will have rights. You need to file the appropriate paperwork and if the two of you are not able to agree on the kids, it will most likely go to mediation. This does not mean that you wont be able to move but he would be able to have the kids a few weeks out of the year or something like that. Try calling legal aid where you live and they will be able to help you out.  Good luck


Like when a guy looks at me I usually look down or away and pretend to be interested in my school work.

Definitly catch his eye, and if he smiles at you, smile back. If he keeps eye contact, you can even then wave at him ,if he hasn't already waved at you. But I would definitly say smile. All my guy friends say that a girls smile when they are interested is the sexiest thing ever.

I am doing a microbiology report and need to know if this bacteria will tolerate the high salt content of Mannitol Salt agar.

it looks like Sarcina aurantiaca was a nomenclatural synonym since the name isn't used anymore and isn't listed on NCBI's taxbrowser under the Sarcina genus.  there was one strain deposited at ATCC originally as Sarcina aurantiaca but is now listed as a Staph epidermis.  and since mannitol salt agar was designed for enrichment of Staph there's a good chance it will grow.

I am thinking either go to Calstate fullerton orMt Sac to transfer to Univerisity. it's a hard decision?please give me some idea~

I think you would benefit from two years at a community college -- it would give you time to improve your communication skills. Your English just isn't good enough yet for a 4-year school.


does it affect the traditions, culture and values of people? if so, how?

yes... in my country, the philippines when there's a funny commericial lets say a funny tag line or phrase said in a certain commerical, people tend to immitate it and soon after it will be woven in our culture... 2, 5 or 10 years after the commerical its still being said..

Some people cannot go to university but are still successful with a "life education."  Sometimes people go for the professional careers and are very unhappy and many never end up working at these careers but they decide they hate it.

Everyone is different first of all.  It is true that some cultures learn from the people in their community their trade or occupation.\n\nHigher education gives you many choices in life, and it opens you up to many possibilities.  Higher education is why our country is so successful.  Don't underestimate the power of knowledge.  The wisest man knows that he knows nothing!  \n\nSometimes people are unhappy with their careers, it just wasn't for them.  That doesn't mean that they regret getting an education.  And it's never too late to do what you love to do.  Our minds will last forever....knowledge is power!!

Why isn't Ivan Lendl in any conversation regarding the greatest tennis players of all-time?\nAfterall, he was in so many grand slam finals.  Yes, he lost 7 grand slam finals. That is basically 7 singles matches.  \nLook at his overall accomplishments-8 grand slams. Overall # 1 for years and his many tournament victories.\nIf he had won those 7 matches, this would not even be a question I would be asking...

Well, in fact, he did lose those finals. Sampras, for instance, has 14 Grand Slam titles...

In chapter 4 of PoA after Harry had eaten dinner and was preparing for bed at the Weasley's, he had headed upstairs, to his room. "He had just closed and locked his trunk when he heard angry voices through the wall, and went to see what was going on.  The door to number twelve was ajar and Percy was shouting."  Is this reference to "number 12" an unintentional faux pas referencing "Number 12 Grimmauld Pl."by JKR  or were there numbered rooms at the Weasley's?

Remember when this scene takes place, they are not at the Weasely home - they're staying at an inn.


I have found so much mold this winter it is horrible I told my landlord about it and all she said was to spray it with clorox and she'll paint the outside of the house to keep the moisture out. our carpets are atleast 20 years old and i have asked her about replacing it my husband is an installer and is willing to do it cheap but she says no she'll do it when we move out. I had a baby in november and he has breathing problems and I don't know if it is an effect in his breathing. is there anything i can do to make my landlord take care of the problem without getting evicted who do i need to talk to? Please help i'm worried.

There are several things you can do.\n\nBut first... an environmental analyst has to be called to assess the risk. Walls may have to be ripped out, and carpets removed. Landlords are responsible for the safety of the premises, but are often reluctant in cases such as yours because it is expensive, and they are in the business to make money. Mold spores are microscopic and a baby is especially susceptible because their imune system is not fully developed.\n\nFirst, there should be a brach of government (either state or provincial) that deals with tennant rights. Probably called the "lanlord tennancy board" or something like that, it can also be covered under "consumer relations".\nThis covers info on your rights and the lanlord's responsibility.\nOR\nCall the health inspection ageny, mold spores are VERY unhealthy and I'm sure the local health inspecter would be very interested in this.\n\nIf all else fails, call all of your local television channels, and newspapers. In my area there ws a huge expose on mold in an apartment, and the landlords cleaned it up quickly due to public pressure.\n\nGood luck.


We've been friends for about a year and a half, close for the past 3 and a half months-ish. Finally, we started dating earlier this month and when I call him, he hardly ever wants to talk on the phone. We're awesome when we're together but online or on the phone, he's always tired and things. Maybe I'm just insecure because it's my first relationship, but I really really like this guy and I don't want him to be bored with "us." Maybe I'm just paranoid. Advice?

Guys are really weird.  I don't understand it, but I've learned to expect it.  My boyfriend will chat on and on and on with me in person, but when I call him up it's all long silences and irritated phones and 'what do you want???'  guys just do NOT like to chat on the phone.  Don't sweat it, and don't take it personally...    just call him when you want to make plans with him and get together in person.


then i find out that theyre asked by young adults 16 and under. and i wished i hadnt answered them by then lol.do you agree or not that you should be asked to state your age.

well all of those answers , make me look like a fool lol. some of my questions are realy bad.


I'm reading a journal article and they say they did an experiment with "washed whole cells (E. coli) expressing the MAO-N-5 variant amine oxidase."\n\nWhat are washed whole cells? What are they used for? Where could I lok this stuff up?

A whole cell is just that...a whole, not-cut-up, not-pieces-of-other-cells, functioning cell.\n\nThey didn't just take out the cytoplasm.  They didn't just take out mitochondira.  They took the whole cells.


i mean, they are DUMB, DUMB, DUMB.  I find myself horrified, in fact.

i am a freshner , any tips and hints to get success in interviews

speak well english..(LOL!*_^), dress appropriately, act as professional, have a ready smile to the interviewer. Don't be nervous(eventhough if I'm in your position, I would probably nervous too--ha-ha), just try to relax and be optimistic...say thank you when the interview was done, leave the place in cool & calm condition...say that "I'm looking forward on working with you sir/ma'am"--this might be a plus factor cuz the interviewer thinks that you're really interested on the job...


I am divorced and my 2 children live with my ex-wife.  I want to take them overseas for 2 weeks for a holiday, my ex-wife refuses permission.  I have been told at 16 they can decide for themselves, has anyone had this problem and does this age sound right.

Well, You can go to court real quick and ask the court. According the the visitation agreement my husband has with his ex (we have custody) There is no first right of refusal and alls each party has to provide is a written letter 30 days before vacation and information on how to contact, plane flight, etc. \n\nWe were going to take his daughter out of state for vacation, his ex refused, we went to court and the judge clearly stated each party has the right to go on vacation with the daughter there is no right to refusal. UNLESS, there is proof (documented) that you are not going to give the child back.\n\nFile a motion, you dont need a lawyer, it is real easy I have written ALL ofmy husbands paperwork for court and he has won every time.


If so, how long  (in the relationship) before you began?

I've been with my fiance for 2 years and we still don't fart in front of each other.. we do on accident sometimes. but we just laugh at each other. But never have we just ripped one just because we had to.


Plus where can I find on the internet the complete information about it ?

France-Brazil World Cup 1998 Finale. Why? Because it was the first time Brazil got their arses kicked really bad. 3-0.


I was looking for articles that can prove that this is true. Articles from reliable sources.

Well I looked over the search engines for you. I could not find any articles. I will continue to try though and if i find any i will update my answer with them.\nBut in my opinion...YES. Just think of it...if all technology shut down for a day...Jobs would disappear. The government would flip out with no way to communicate or monitor things. Stock markets would crash. Terrorism would no doubt explode. People would just flip out. Businesses would just flop. Almost EVERYTHING WE DO EVERY DAY IS SOMEHOW CONNECTED TO TECHNOLOGY. So yes, i would definitely say that people rely way too much upon it.


If it is dengerious to point it at such a bright object, does it have the resolution needed? The flag is vertical... maybe the russian lunohod or any other manmade thing leftover.(I do not care about the 'nonbelievers'... there are people who even believe the earth is flat... that's fine with me:)))

Using a little math and common sense, I figured out, no, it would not nearly be possible to see the flag on the moon with the Hubble space telescope.\n\nFirst, lets get some basic facts straight.\nThe Diameter of the Hubble telescope is 4.2 meters and the distance from the Earth to the moon (on average) is about 3.84 E8 meters.\n\nPretty much the only thing limiting what Hubble can and cannot resolve is diffraction through a circuilat aperature (ie.  How light waves intreract with eachother when they get to Hubble's mirror.\nThe minimum angle which a circular arperture can resolve is given by the formula,\nTheta_min = 1.22 Lamba / D\nwhere Theta min is the minimum angle, Lamba is the wavelength of light we are using, and D is the diameter of the opening.\n\nIf we assume we are using light at 500 nm (roughly the middle of the visible spectrum) and we know that Hubble's diameter is 4.2 meters, we can find the minimum angle to be,\nTheta_min = 1.425 E-7 radians.\nThis is quite a small angle by Earthly standards, but will it compare to the angle to the flag on the moon?..we'll see.\n\nHere is where I have to make an assumption, but it is a very reasonable assumption and one that will assure us that out answer is correct.  Watching the moon landing videos, one can see that the astronaughts placed a moderatly sized flag on a pole on the moon.  Although I dont know the exact dimentions of the flag, I can assure you, it was definately no bigger than 10 ft.  But for the sake of argument and to make the numbers easier, lets assume it was 10 feet (3 meters).\nIf the distance between the flag and hubble is the same (about) as the distance from the Earth to the moon, then we can calculate the angle between the top of the flag and the bottom of the flag pole as seen by hubble orbitting Earth.  The angle comes out to be about,  7.81 E-9 radians, about 20 times SMALLER than the absolute minumum angle Hubble can resolve...and this is if we assume that the flag is 10 ft, which it obviously is smaller than that in reality.\n\nPlus, Hubble was specifically designed to look at VERY distant object.  Although the moon is far away, it might as well be right next to us compared to the stars/glaxies/.. Hubble is suppose to be looking at.  Therefore, I dont know exactly how it will respond looking at such a close and bright object.\n\nOne this is sure through, you could not see the flag, even with one othe best telescopes ever built opperating perfectly under ideal conditions using visible light.

how much money do medical centers give to their projects?(parameteres) & when do they send the first percent of it? on which stage of research they pay all of the money?

Most research is run by national or international grant, either from the government or from charities-and more recently, from drug companies.  Government grants are paid out, usually, quarterly-that is, every three months.  Charities usually give money yearly, or occasionally give the entire amount at once.  Drug companies can grant the money all at once, or if it is in collaboration, will give money based upon productivity.  Regardless, usually the financial department of the medical centre or university will act as if all the money has been disbursed, and allow the researcher to spend regardless of quarterly or yearly payments made by the granting agency.\nHope that helps


It seems people want everything handed to them, even the few WEB references to sweat equity are based on hand outs with minor strings to put some time in like Habitat for Humanity. Not real sweat equity as I was taught and like an apprentice did 150 years ago to learn a skill and build a small business. \nIt scares me that few people are aware the gift of learning a skill as it’s own reward or unpaid time to better a work environment. \n\nSwear equity built this country.

I hear you. I see a lot of askers here at Yahoo Answers posting questions on how they can make money fast with little effort. Even in my website, we get a lot of questions from visitors asking us to tell them what is the best business that can make them earn a lot preferably for short period of time.\n\nNo wonder that many fall prey to get-rich-quick scams. Many people are looking for a shortcut; they do not want to work hard at it. They want money -- NOW -- but they do not want to sweat for it. \n\nI always believe that there will be no scammers if there are no suckers. Unfortunately, there are many -- so bizopp scams are here to stay. Sweat equity can give you sweet rewards at the end. Hard work, plus determination, patience and little bit of luck are still what makes a successful entrepreneur.


Is there a way I can save a streamed audio file from the internet and convert it to an MP3 or WAV file?

you need to go into your control panel to the SOUNDS section (in the classic view).\n\nTHen make sure the PLACE VOLUME BUTTON in task bar is selected (this just makes it easier to do this going forward).\n\nthen close that window - and there should be a little speaker in your lower right corner.  Double CLICK that... and then choose OPTIONS, then PROPERTIES, then switch to RECORDING. \n\nNow at this point - every sound card is SLIGHTLY different...  You need to look in that middle box for something that says either WAV, or WHAT YOU HEAR, or ALL SOUNDS or something along those lines and make sure it's checked.\n\nThen click OK - and the volume window will open... check that box on the volume window (usually only one can be checkd at a time).  Once it is - then your computer will now record any audio it hears.  \n\nSo it would then be up to you to use your sound recorder of choice.  There are many free ones.  I use Sound Forge.. but it's expensive.  \n\nIf you go to tucows.com or download.com you can probably find a freeware sound recorder that is better then the one in windows - but you can use the windows one if you have no other choice  (START, PROGRAMS, ACCESS., ENTERTAINMENT, SOUND RECORDER).\n\nHope that helps -

dba_gregg has missed the point that both are same weight\n\nThe moment of Inertia of a hollow sphere  is 1.6 times greater than the solid sphere and so it rolls down slowly.\n\nThe speed of solid sphere will be 1.09 times the speed of hollow sphere.

why does our eyes hurt when we lack of sleep and wash our face? Sometimes our eyes waters... what causes that?

Can i know the answer of this question? "Write a program to read its input, one line at a time,and print each line backwards"

Here is one way of doing it, using only what we've seen so far: \n\n#include <stdio.h>\n\nextern int getline(char [], int);\nextern int reverse(char [], int);\n\nint main()\n{\nchar line[100];\nint len;\n\nwhile((len = getline(line, 100)) != EOF)\n{\nreverse(line, len);\nprintf("%s\n", line);\n}\n\nreturn 0;\n}\n\nint reverse(char string[], int len)\n{\nint i;\nchar tmp;\nfor(i = 0; i < len / 2; i = i + 1)\n{\ntmp = string[i];\nstring[i] = string[len - i - 1];\nstring[len - i - 1] = tmp;\n}\nreturn 0;\n}\n\nIn practice, it would be a nuisance to have to pass the length of the string to the reverse function. Strings in C are always terminated by the ``zero'' or ``nul'' character, represented by \0. Therefore, reverse (or any piece of code) can always compute the length of a string, either by searching for the \0, or by calling the library function strlen, which computes the length of a string by searching for the \0. Here is how the program might look if the reverse function did not require that the length of the string be passed in: \n#include <stdio.h>\n#include <string.h>\n\nextern int getline(char [], int);\nextern int reverse(char []);\n\nint main()\n{\nchar line[100];\n\nwhile(getline(line, 100) != EOF)\n{\nreverse(line);\nprintf("%s\n", line);\n}\n\nreturn 0;\n}\n\nint reverse(char string[])\n{\nint len = strlen(string);\nint i;\nchar tmp;\nfor(i = 0; i < len / 2; i = i + 1)\n{\ntmp = string[i];\nstring[i] = string[len - i - 1];\nstring[len - i - 1] = tmp;\n}\nreturn 0;\n}

Electronic fuel injection uses a system of sensors to measure fuel dosage and squirt atomized fuel into the intake of an engine through a system of injectors.\n\nThe main sensors needed to control an engine are intake air mass, throttle position, and engine speed.  Additional sensors that improve operation include oxygen sensor in the exhause (also called a lambda sensor) to make fine adjustments to avoid running rich and knock sensors in the head to avoid running lean.  There are many different types of systems, but most use those sensors.  One system I worked with, which was an unusual setup intended for a race car built in the late 80s used a manifold air pressure and manifold air temperature instead of an air mass sensor, since air mass can be calculated from temperature, pressure, and engine speed, in theory, at least.  In actual use, it was a very unstable system.  Some more modern systems use direct injection into the cylinder, but most inject into the intake manifold right above the intake valve.  Some systems  inject into the throttle body with a limited number of injectors, but most use a metod called sequential multi-port injection in which injectors are above the intake ports, and timed to intake valve opening.   \n\nThe basic method of operation is that if you know the amount of air going in, the speed of the engine, and the position of the throttle, an enrichment map stored on a computer chip can be used to provide the correct fuel dosage for those operating conditions.  The injectors are plugged into a set of fuel lines held at a constant pressure, and the rate of fuel passing through the injector at that pressure is known, so by keeping the injector open for a given period of time provides a known mount of fuel to each injector.  Special case enrichment, like in the case of a turbocharged engine where fuel consumption per cylinder firing can be highly varaible depending on boost level, the injector can be held open longer, or a second injector can be used for on-boost enrichment, depending on the design.

which was sick at the time but on the drive he was talking to the mother of his grown daughter behind my back about stoping in the state they live in to see his dauhter he could of called the daughter because he has her cell # but he did'nt so when he gets to their state he stops by the mother job they all have lunch together but he told me he had lunch with our daughter on one end & they was on another but it did'nt happen that way because my 5yr old said that they all sat together and when she said that he told the truth & also i know he was talking to this woman the whole trip was that i looked at the cell phone bill & i found out that he has been talking on his cell for a year & a half behind my back his answer to that is i thought you knew about it yeah right

Suga, I know you are upset, but bringing your daughter into this is not very nice.  If you two split up or have a huge blow out, then she is going to think that she is the reason why Daddy and Mommy are upset.  Just calm down and sit down with your hubby, telling him calmly how you feel.  Maybe you can get something worked out.  Good Luck, and you're in my prayers


I need someone in CALI for different sites, I just need refills for first aid cabinets...100- 150 people.


I was just wondering...How experienced should i be to try out for the cheerleading squad at My High School?  Is there a weight limit?  Do you think That 150 Lbs for a girl that is like 5'7"??

U should go to your local cheerleading squad and ask for a private lesson to learn the basics so that when they say something like everyone show me ur Herky u will no what to do. I hope u take my advice and make the team!!!!


It seems the majority of our black youth are going down a destructive path.  Is this what segregation was supposed to prove?  Did we cut off our nose to spite our face?

No, The inner city is more dangerous than ever. They are still looking for the goverment to solve the problems. Parents are not around at all.\n\nYes, There are more blacks in collage, blacks are everywhere in the media, There are more middle and upper class working blacks with collage degrees. Society is becoming more intergrated.\n\nNo, Black leaders profit from false racism.

It seems there are few columnists on this site.

A small county newspaper (15,000) outside Colorado Springs.\n\nIn fact, We're being threatened with a lawsuit by a former city councilman for a Brokeback Mountain parody last week.

The universe is a vast place, so enormous we can scarcely comprehend it, billions of galaxies each with billions of stars.\n\nAnd the earth has been around for so long, billions of years, and during that time countless creatures have lived and died, forgotten forever.  And a million years from now, will anyone care what we did, what choices we made?  We'll all be gone and forgotten too.\n\nSo, given the vast scope of time and space and the tiny space that we personally take up within it, given our insignificance in the grand scheme of things, would it really be so bad if I broke into my neighbor's house and stole his stereo?  I mean, I seriously need one.

Given the grand scope of things, the universe being so vast, and the time we spend in it so little, and our part in it so infinitely small, then you should hardly notice the iota of time that is spent in a small cubicle.

How you interpret these?  Are they metaphors for something else?  Or do you think the people that wrote the Bible were a little obsessed with the supernatural?

witches were common in those days, although their mystical abilities were never mentioned in Scripture.\n\nmiracles are the hand of God working in the physical realm.  \n\nthe book of revelations is a sign of what will happen in the future, many things can be considered metaphorical, but we must realize that back then the technology was different, they didnt have many of the things we do today, therefore couldnt describe them with "proper" terminology.  ie, the beast.  it could be a computer (there is a supercomputer im brussels by this name that was created for the purpose of storing the personal information of every human being on its hard drive.  the tracking method is said to be a chip placed under the skin in the back of the hand or the forehead [sound like the mark of the beast placement?] that can be scanned to access all information)\nezekiel is also riddled with what may appear to be mysticism, but may be an ancient man's interperetation of what he was seeing as a vision of the future.

I drink 3-4 cups of coffee everyday and sweeten it with 2 level teaspons of sugar...maybe more.  While I always made sure to by PURE CANE SUGAR, my Mom convinced me to get off the sugar.  I have been using Splenda now for a week - will there be any behavioal changes in me?

Maybe, but it's not likely, the amounts of sugar you describe are pretty minimal, especially compared to the amount of caffiene in the coffee you're having it with. Some people are sensitive to sugar, and when they take too much of it they become hyperactive for a while, then irritable and tired, but pretty much the same thing can happen with caffiene too.\nI'd say you have a long way to go from 8 teaspoons of sugar a day before yuo can really say you have a problem with sugar...


I've been living for 30 yrs and just can't find anything to live for, I know if i cut my lugler vein in my neck, I'll fall into a warm sleep. I guess i won't, But i just can't find anything but a boreing room to sit in. I don't know i might do . I told myself that if i didnot become something by the time i was 33, It was over.can any onr tell me why i should. I've heard don't do because of god and hell , I've heard don't do it because of you family which i have none well no kids, no woman, no job, no god, mother might miss me o'well. what about me and my happiness, what about a future, I see none. And then they say in due time, Well i say time is getting shorter by the min. why wait for whats going to happen anyway. how many think i should and how should i .\nOr what can i do to make a good living, that i wouldn't want to die!

If you really to die, you should have taken your life already.  Instead, you are writing here and trying to express your frustration in life.  I do not know you in person but from what you wrote, I believe that you need a more rewarding life.  You seem to lack close friends, career....focus on something you like and do something different.  If you do not cherish yourself, nobody will!

I am 30 years old and I still have 20-20 vision, which is of course good but what bothers me is the fact that all of those in my family who are older than me wear glasses.  I also remember that since i was younger, my eyes would hurt like burning every afternoon and I would see in the mirror that my eyes are red.  I simply concludeed then that my eyes were merely tired. but not all people i know whose eyes tire, have burning red eyes.  recently, an eye doctor told me that my eyes dry of tears every 5 seconds... the normal would be 10 seconds.   and I still have 20-20 vision.  uuummm.. can anybody help me with this....does this mean i will have to wear glasses in the future.....?

Because your tears evaporate faster (like mine), you have to blink more often.  If you don't do this, your eyes dry out.  If it's a problem for you, your doctor can recommend an artificial tear eyedrop (you can get them over-the-counter, but if you use it long-term, you may want to get one that's preservative-free).  It doesn't necessarily reflect on your future need for glasses.  \n\nMost people when they get to be around 40-45 years old, need some sort of reading glasses or contacts.  That's completely normal and happens because the crystalline lens inside your eye loses its flexibility and ability to focus up close.  You still have a long time before you have to think about this, but there are many options available right now and there will probably be more in 10-15 years.


As the question states, my name is hard to say, and spell. I'm cool if people get close to the pronounciation. I'm also cool if they'd like a nickname(which I have). This has been going on all my life. I'm easy going about this(I'm cool, as long as no one uses profanity as my name). ONe day I was speaking to a friend, and she told me she had a theory, that in job interviews, and life in general, if u don't insist people pronounce ur name correctly...then u are perceived as weak, and uncaring about that part of ur life. ANd if u don't care about something as simple as what ur called, then why would u care about other things which are important? Since interviews are relatively short, I heard that it's the little things they pick up on during the time to see if ur a person they'd like to hire, So, based on this theory, my friend has always insisted people learn her real name+ pronounciation. Is this true? I'm not saying they'd base it on this solely, but could it be a factor of perception

My wife has such a name and a nick name.She will use the nick name If it makes it easier for people to say correctly.I believe it is OK to correct someone once or twice depending on the situation.In a business environment you will have to decide on that as a sales agent it is good to be easy going you want something from them be easy. As a manager speaking to subordinates you will want proper use of your name or nick name, so it depends on the situation


Terrorism could be bombing a remote village with an F-16 \nOR\nTerrorism could be being involved in suicide bombing

Terrorism is only terrorism, which ever side you remain. Killings  innocents in World Trade Center, At London Railway stations or in Delhi crowded Markets are always terrorism which ever side you are. F-16  are bombing remote villages because terrorist are hiding there.


leaving for egypt and was told dont drink the water. i plan on traveling the world in my retirement and now am wondering the water problems i might face where is the water good and where is it safe.

when in doubt, drink bottled water. but i have been to costa rica and japan and western europe and in those places you can definitely drink the water. when in doubt, check out the center for disease control for specifics on the country you are going to. and best of luck to you in egypt!


A geostationary satelite is a satelite that is 'fixed' in the sky,e.i. it orbits the Earth with same angular velocity as the Earth itself around its axis.Use physics laws to show that such satelite can be only above the equator, find how high it is in terms of earth radii and determine if atmosphere interfere with its motion.

Angular velocity (w) of earth is:\n\nw=2*pi radians / 24 hours  \n\nconvert this so it is in terms of seconds for compatability with SI units.\n\nw=2*pi/ 24 hours * 24 hours/ 86400seconds \n\nw=7.2722E-5 rads/s\n\nThe lateral acceleration due to the angular velocity must be exactly eaqual to acceleration do to gravity to maintain orbit.\n\nLateral acelleration due to velocity is:\na= (V^2) / r \n\nRelate velocity and angular velocity with:\nV= w*r\n\nSubstituting for V inthe first equation gives:\n\na = w^2 * r \n\n(this is the lateral acceleration towards earth's center due to the angular velocity)\n\nNext we need the acceleration toward earth's center due to gravity.\n\na = G * Mass of Earth / r^2\n\nSince both equations have 'a' on the left side we know they are equal, so we now have\n\nw^2 * r = G * Mass of Earth / r^2\n\nNow Solvling for 'r'\n\nr=[ G * Mass of Earth / w^2 ]^(1/3)\n\nPlug-in known quantities\nG=6.67E-11 \nMass of Earth = 5.9742E24\nw=7.2722E-5\n\nr=4.224E7 m\n\nTo get the hieght above earth's surface we subtract the radius of Earth.\n\nh = 4.224E7 m - 6378100 m = 3.586E7 m\n\nh = 35,586 km

I found this website (freepcskytv.co.uk) which claims to give free access to live sky tv on your pc for a one off payment of £4.95. It sounds too good to be true to me. Is it legal, and does it work.

Not sure about that but you could try sopcast. It might not show sky tv broadcasts but whenever there are sports events (soccer/F1/cricket), someone starts broadcasting it. If you have good bandwidth, its a great tool


You don't know anything about me except what I post here, and for some reason that's enough for you to think you know me.

Wow sorry about your perception, allow me to change a few things, as i did not intend to seem hateful.\n\n most Christians believe that where God is absent, evil lies. Do i mean this to you directly? well, lets say i reviewed your Q&A and 360 before my post. You basically say you are demon possessed.  Does this mean that you have absence of God in your life, yes i believe so, so im just im just sharing a common general belief there right? no need to feel defensive, honestly.  We could all be closer to God.\nsecondly here i write,\n\n"You poor thing, you have serious issues, its no wonder, you wont let the true LOrd Hold you and save you and coddle you and share his peace and love with you, well how can you expect to be nurtured? and grow into the wonderful being that he planned for you?"\nHave you pushed the Lord away? I know you have, and  I want you to know that you can have all of the above if you let Him in. Does a part of me tell myself that you need that? Yes it does. I see you as hurting. and let me say on a kind gentle note, you dont have to, there are better ways than the sarcastics stated below.\n\n"Now go alienate yourself from all that is Good, take the EASY way; without question,listen to the LIES, deny the ache and stench in your heart, youll feel much more comfortable im sure. "\n\nsarcastic as heck here sweetie do you understand why? Because I have looked at your Q&A,and 360, i am not reacting blindly to this question alone as i would just be sharing what everone else tries to share, to save you, that you are OBVIOUSLY not hearing, anyway.\n\nso i got your attention....GOOD.\n\nSo I peek into who you are and i see, "demon posessed, my demon masters child, death rocks" attitutude.\nand i say,\n"and of course youre nice honey, nice always comes when manipulation is needed,"\n\nguess what? its the truth, generally speaking, it is, and  do i feel it would apply to you, heck yes, it applies to ALL, people dont even realize it.  They sugar coat crap all the time to get the desired outcome, and this too does not come from God.\n\nI hope and pray you have good in you, but isnt that difficult with the demon ruling and all? doesnt he want to make it all about you? if that part of you can undertand good is still in there, bring it out sister, Get strong, and fight, do you realize what bondage you are in?

Convert the following measurements to grams.  Please show work.\n\n\n16 kilograms ?????\n\n1.002 kilograms ?????\n\n888 grams ?????\n\n55 milligrams ?????

a kilogram is 1000 grams, so u have to move the decimal place 3 place to the right. So,\n16 kg = 16000 g \n1.002 kg = 1002 g\n888 kg? = 888,000 g\n55 mg = .55 g (2 decimal difference between milligram and gram)


I know some credit card companies do care about identity theft but my big question is how come they don't try to protect against it harder, i.e. to keep themselves from having to pay the businesses back for someone purchasing on another persons credit card that wasn't suppose too.  If a thief charges thousands of dollars on someones credit card they stole, credit card companies have to pay back the businesses and it just seems to me that if they don't want to keep paying of the businesses for the thieves then why don't they protect against identity theft harder?  Do they have so much money that they just don't know what to do with it?

The merchants really take the hit...the credit card companies do not because of insurance...a percentage of their fees & anticipated profit margins are allocated for loss insurance.\n\nBut, it's been very interesting, especially within the past year, to note the number of financial institutions which are now offering credit insurance....so in a way they're able to make money from identity theft.\n\nUltimately, credit lenders (and the data brokers which serve them) really do not want less control over your personal information as it limits the number of opportunities for them to profit from you.\n\nCheck out the track record of both houses of Congress for aggressively moving forward with legislation that's actually punitive to companies which lose your data -vs- citizen's & states rights to "freeze" your credit file!

Right now i have a little contest on my blog.\nI am looking for good stories about what you did on St. Paddy's Day. Send me your stories here or on my blog and win a Paddy's Day Button.\n\nhttp://360.yahoo.com/jonathanehenry

I had a fun filled St. Paddy's day.  First, I got up and went to work...yay, yay.  I work in a locked dementia/Alzheimer's unit as a recreation coordinator which is a dandy job.  I arrive to work at 8:30 on the dot.  By 9:13 a.m. I had changed my shoes 'cause someone peed on my foot while I was braiding their hair.  That was nice.  Then I went to lunch and had a tuna roll and iced tea from Railway Market.  That was nice too.  A little better then the urine on the foot, but not as warm and intimate.  By 1:23 p.m. a kind elderly soul didn't want to play Jeopardy with me so he sunk his dentures into my hand and spit in my hair.  (The shamrock earrings I was wearing weren't making me feel "lucky" anymore.)  Because those dentures really ventured down deep, I spent the rest of the workday in the emergency room getting stitched up and medicated.  It was a blast!  By 7:40 p.m. I was home (damn waiting rooms) and I think I may have had 1/2 a Guinness beer and a hot shower (hand covered in a Ziploc freezer bag during the shower, mind you...) before I fell asleep on the couch.  I awoke at 2:30 a.m. to find my dear dog Hank, had crapped on the floor.  My St. Paddy's day rocked!!!

No troll: I'm really curious, because wouldn't that be succombing to temptation and satan in your faith?

Are you kidding me?  God wants us to take delight in our spouses.  Sex isn't just for procreation.  Otherwise why would it feel so good?  He would have made it about as much fun as planting a garden.  My husband and I are both born-again Christians.  The only reason I don't moan loud is because I have kids in the house.  I too say read the Song of Solomon.  That book is quite direct about the pleasures of sex.  And it is in the Bible.

So... she left me but Iam still in love with her so how can you forget people who killed you :S please dont give that bad answer .. try another one .... in a simply words I can't even imagine someone that will take the place of her !! anyone have an idea or experiance It took one year to forget but with a negative result

It isn't about forgetting, it is about acceptance.  Be glad for the good memories but realize that is all they are and will ever be.  You deserve to be happy but only you can make that happen by wanting it and by moving on and giving new relationships a chance and not comparing them to this one.  I've been down that dark road where you can't imagine someone will ever take her place but I will tell you for a fact it happens.

Okay, so my question deals with something i am currently dealing with. This guy took advantage of me with this whole car thing and got me to put the car in my name.He said he wanted to eventually help me get the car as a gift. He had said that he was planning on getting a new car and all i had to do was help him take a title loan out on the car. I did and he said he was going to pay it back and he did but he was a couple of months late with the payments. So things went sour between us because i found out that he wasnt doing anything he said with the car and that he had no license. The car had the wrong tags, no insurance and he had no license. So i took the car from him and how he told me that his father and brother are going to take me to court. The guy is 35 and has no license and the car is in my name. Can they really take me to court and on what grounds? thanks.

above posts are right. actually you are the owner as u have the title. so if they do anything illigal with that car u r the one who would b sued. they will be considered you agents.

My boyfriend and i love each other and he sees that im not happy living with my family. My family and i have alot of problems with each other. I really want to go now, so how do i convince a really religous man to give us his blessing?

First, depending upon what state you are in, moving in with your boyfriend could get him tossed into jail.  Check out the age of consent in your state.\nIn most states, by the time you are 18, you can move out and do what you wish.  In the meantime, you must learn how to deal with your father on this issue.  He may not understand and may never agree, but you do need to let him know about the depth of your feelings for your boyfriend.

Do echidnas sit on there eggs to help keep them warm or do they do something else?

Being monotremes, echidnas produce young from eggs which are hatched outside their body, in the same way as birds and most reptiles. During the breeding season, a female echidna develops a simple pouch into which she lays a single egg. The egg takes about 10 days to hatch, producing a young animal which measures around 1.45 cm (about the size of a jellybean) and weighs as little as 380 milligrams. The young echidna is carried around in its mother's pouch for about three months, during which the female will sometimes drop it into a burrow for protection.\n\nBy the time the infant leaves the pouch, its spines have started to develop, but it still stays close to its mother and continues to suckle milk through specialised pores in the skin inside her pouch. Although they begin to eat termites and ants soon after leaving the pouch, young echidnas are often not fully weaned until they are several months old.


I want to know the political background of the whole situation, and what caused the incident.

I'll give it to you in the easy, CliffNotes style. US forces were going after members of Somali clans that were stirring up trouble. The locals were pretty indifferent about America until one day at a clan meeting, US helicopters and forces bombarded the building with TOW missiles, injuring many old clan leaders, children, men and others who weren't part of the group that were causing trouble. US forces fired 20-some missiles, according to witnesses on the scene. The Rangers came in and arrested whomever was alive. Piles of bodies were everywhere.\n\nThe Somalis said from that day on that they essentially lost respect for the US forces and started referring to all of them, in a bad way, as "Rangers". Subsequently, the Black Hawk Down Incident occurred because Somali citizens had had enough of the trouble the US was causing. The incident with the TOW missiles probably indicates the fondness for shooting down American helicopters that day. When the Somalis captured Mike Durant after his copter was shot down, they cried "You die now Ranger!".\n\nPlease read the actual book BlackHawk Down was based on. The movie was an atrocity in every way. You will be glad I told you to, it is a very good read.


Recently I had a pap smear.  I had changed doctors and this new I have now is better and told me that I had an upside down cervix.  The last one never told me this and I was wondering what it means to have an upside down cervix? Can I still have children? I was shocked to hear this and never got to ask her these questions.

I suspect that he means a retroverted uterus, meaning that the uterus tends to hang down rather than tilting forward. This is very, very common, and has little clinical import in pregnancy. You can read more about it here\nhttp://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/001506.htm


I got this friend, who goes out with this girl. He is much shorter than her. What should he do?

He doesn't need to do anything. She likes him, or she wouldn't go out with him. \n\nI know what I'm talking about. I'm 5'10". When I was younger I didn't go out with short guys, but now it wouldn't matter to me, if we had mutual respect and liking... etc.\n\nOf course, my boyfriend is 6'1".  LOL!


How many of us believe? Is it of any relevance these days?

I have been a practicing Witch for 8 years.  My tarot readings are phenominally accurate.  Karma, in its simplest term means what goes are comes around.  Most Wiccans believe in the Three Fold Law that means whatever you send out you get back times three.  I have seen dire consequences to individuals who acted selfishly with their magick.  \n\n\nI use magick all the time. Helps me constantly with my business.  But I don't cast spells on people without their knowledge and consent.  \nAstrology, well I am a Gemini and I am one talkative chick. All the Gemini's I know act that way.  \n\nNumerology I haven't studied much, but I know reliable witches practicing much longer than me that will swear by it.


i met this guy a few weeks ago and he gave a very good first impression and i started to like him alot we have hung out a few times but he really didnt seem intrested but yet he tells our mutual friends that hes very intrested i have called him a few times but he has never called me why would he claim hes intrested if he cant even pick up the phone and call should i just give up on it i think it may have something to do with me having a daughter like he dont want that commitment or something but i cant be sure what should i do give up or keep calling him trying to set something up

First and foremost, it is very important to not get our hopes up too fast; A few good dates do not necessarily constitute that he is the guy that you are indeed looking for.If he really were the kind of guy that you were looking for then he would definitely find the time to call you and talk to you. Do not get hung up on those type of guys because they may seem promising but in reality they are not. I would suggest you move on; regardless of what his reasons may be, fact of the matter is that he is not calling, so I think you deserve someone better, and for starters- someone more honest. Do not waste you time on those guys. Again, you deserve better.\n\nI hope it helped, Good Luck

I have always heard that President Bush pushed through extensions for unemployment benefits which add up to collecting 13 mos. of benefits rather than just 6 mos. or so. Does this apply to every state? I live in Ohio.

The only way to tell for sure is to contact the Ohio unemployment office. Check their web site, I included a link below try looking there.


I dont plan on being a musician.  I just want to make some songs for fun.  I want to be able to import the instumental (just the beat) and sing, rap, talk or whatever, over the music.  Basically kareoke, but able to record as well.  I have nero, and acess to other programs.  Any suggestions would help.

Apple's Garage Band software is great for this.  It comes with hundreds of intrumental or percussion loops, plus it allows you to import other tracks and record live over them.

I recently been a robot lately, Just couldnt think of anything to talk about and all I could think or say was that I love you I miss you and argue about who loves who more. She told me last nite that im not myself, Im boring to her, and she knows that I know that too and I havent been myself lately either. She wants the orignal me back and so do I. I dont wanna lose her, I asked her to marry me on new years day and I want to bring the old me back. Recently also, Ive stoped doing the things I used to do. Ive put al those things away and just made all my available time for her and talking to her. What should I really do?

You should ask her to descibe who the old you was, if it fits who you was then try going back to be that person. It seems like you got a bit shaky since you engage to her. Seems to me that you are worrying about the step you are about to take. Go back to being yourself, and remember do not change when you get married.

The project should fall under the category Biology. Kindly be specific.

When warm weather settles in, take them on a nature hike.  Most teens will think this is cheesy, but the competition will soon settle in.\n\nPlay a seeking game.  Create a list of items, with points attached, of things that are around their school.  List the scientific name (ones studied in class and some hard one for bonus pts)...deducting points if they have to ask about their common name.\n\nItems can included leaves, feathers, rocks, etc.  Make it a week long project where kids can work in teams.\n\nMy 10th grade Bio teacher did this...and even though we moaned at first at how childish the game was...we all aced our test the following week, and had a good competition.\n\n(We got some sort of reward, but I forget what it was.)


my employer is saying that I can not become a highter level worker (higher labor grade) as my coworker who does the same job as I and the rest of my teams does.  Is this legal?\nThey are saying that the was that level when the department began and can mantain that status but it is unattainable for anyone else.  She is rewarded with a higher salary cap, more vacaition and quicker vesting in 401K then everyone else in our department.\n\nIs this legal?

I guess so because at the time that the person got the job it was a job but now it's not a job but just because of that you can't just take the job or it benefits away from the other workers.

Longer or shorter?  Which is more appealing?

On the right woman a long skirt can be as appealing as well as a short skirt.  Depending on the person and how they choose to wear their clothes, even some of the most provocative of women's clothing can be not only classy but also sexy too.\n\nToo often women with great bodies are afraid to even wear a shorter skirt for fear of public criticism.  What is right for one persons figure could be downright apalling on another.\n\nAs for Women 35+...There are more older women who are in better shape these days than you could even conceive of!  And they sure can pull off a short skirt better than some women half their age.

Preferebly a cultured neuron (eg rat primary cortical or striatal neurons) but any estimate would do...If you have an answer please provide some references as well as tohow you calculated the volume, what data you used etc...)

Cortical neurons average about 30 microns in a cell culture-somewhat smaller in a brain section.  Hippocampal pyramidal neurons run approximately 40-50 microns, and spinal motorneurons run up to about 80 microns. (If you are working with cortical and striatal neurons, you will likely branch out into hippocampal neurons at some point.) Scanning electron microscopy gives a volume/diameter ratio that indicates a hemispherical shape in cultured neurons, thus the formula would be 0.5 X spherical volume, or:\n(((4 pi)/3)) X  radius cubed) X ).5.  Simplified it would be 2/3 pi X radius cubed.  Thus a largish cortical neurons of diameter 40 microns (40 X 10-6 M) would have a volume of approximately 17000 cubic microns.  Since a mm3 contains 1 billion cubic microns, the volume would be 0.000017 cubic mm, or  0.000000017 ml (a ml contains 1000 mm3).  Thus it would take about 50 million cortical cells to make 1 ml of cells.  When we pellet neurons, we find about 2-4 million cells per 100 ul, so the calculation is good to a factor of 2 or so.


If you do what are some good tips for beginners? I have trouble pulling myself up on the pole. Any good workouts for upper body strength with fast results? I want to become good at this because I really love it!!

I used to do it in high school. I suggest that you do 100 chin ups and 100 pull ups each day. If you can't do that, work up to it. I also strongly recommend an abdominal workout. Your abdomen has as much to do with that as your arms do.


It has been said that myth is to religion as poetry is to prose. What does this mean?

Poetry is an highly expressive form of prose.  And in the logical context that the statement is set up in , Religion is to prose as myth is to poetry.\n\nSo the first part, Religion and prose?  Prose can be defined as "ordinary speech" and poetry can be defined as "colorful or artistic speech.  \n\nThat would mean (in the case as you stated it) that myth is a colorful version of it's less colorful cousin, religion.  But I don't believe this says anything particularly about what religion and myth are or defines religion as myth if thats what you were thinking.  If you rearranged the structure of the comparison or used different wording you could get to that meaning...again...if that's what you're aiming for?  Hope that helps


Also...what's the salary range? What kind of jobs can the person apply to?

Medical assistants perform routine administrative and clinical tasks to keep the offices and clinics of physicians, podiatrists, chiropractors and optometrists running smoothly. \n\nThe duties of medical assistants vary from office to office, depending on the location and size of the practice and the practitioner's specialty. In small practices, medical assistants usually are "generalists," handling both administrative and clinical duties and reporting directly to an office manager, physician or other health practitioner. Those in large practices tend to specialize in a particular area, under the supervision of department administrators.\n\nMedical assistants perform many administrative duties, including answering telephones, greeting patients, updating and filing patients' medical records, filling out insurance forms, handling correspondence, scheduling appointments, arranging for hospital admission and laboratory services, and handling billing and bookkeeping.\n\nClinical duties vary according to state law and include taking medical histories and recording vital signs, explaining treatment procedures to patients, preparing patients for examination, and assisting the physician during the examination. Medical assistants collect and prepare laboratory specimens or perform basic laboratory tests on the premises, dispose of contaminated supplies, and sterilize medical instruments.

I know that some home DVD players can play a DVD at 1.3x speed and change the audio pitch so everyone doesn't sound like the Chipmunks.  I was wondering if there is any Windows software player that can do this with compressed video.\n\nThanks

the powerdvd dose it, but the powerplayer, may help better,


im afraid i might get infected by the chemicals in the match!


I can have interesting conversations with individuals, but when I'm in a group (say lunch with a few people), I seem to have nothing to say. How can I still be interesting conversations with groups of people?

You could say what you are thinking. You could ask a question related to the conversation. "Wait a minute, what if....(you fill in the blank)......" something like that. \n\nHowever, Libby makes a perfect point in that you are much  better off being a listener. My hunch is that the conversations you have with individuals are much more interesting then the group ones. Stick with being you. That is my advice.


Hey everybody!\nListen, here's the deal...i enjoy being myself and pushing myself to the limit to get to where i want to go.so...If there is anybody and i mean ANY BODY-producers, actores,directors,extras,those dudes working at NIDA (you catch my drift),etc-who can help me out in fullfillling my dreams and ambitions then i will be ever so grateful!With the knowledge that i wont let you down, i guarentee you that oyu will bring rise to a new star.So,whoever reads this.Think about it. I could just be the next big thing!\n\nOh,and on a final note..No!i do not accept offers for pornography films.Personally i do not consider being a porn star as an acting career.Sorry! \n\nThank-you for your time :O)

Your enthusiasm is certainly great and positive. I think you only need to show your actual past record (it doesn't have to be stuff you did in acting or theatre,  but it has to be things you did, are proud of, and  can actually show to directors and producers).\n\nIf someone you know personally read your question, I'm sure he/she would trust you and give you a chance. But the way it works in business is that if you ask a stranger, it is always good to provide facts and proofs of what you did before. Only then can they trust you. After all, when they hire you or recommend you, they are putting themselves on the line. Their entire reputation will be at stake. Which is why they are careful in recommending anyone.\n\nSince 1992, my job has been to "discover" rising stars (young, beautiful, talented women) and write a story about them in a monthly magazine on Asian arts and culture. Of course, the first thing I check is their resume: what they actually did, what achievements they've had, etc.\n\nSure, it takes a bit of work in building your "portfolio" and your resume, but once you have them, they are like your passports to elite circles where highly connected people will open doors for you, IF you prove to be a highly disciplined, focused, determined person and can actually PROVE it using your past track record.\n\nHope this helps! :-)\n\nP.S. Check out www.brightcove.com, I do think Internet TV will be big soon. That will open so many doors for actors, directors, screenplay writers, etc.
