The neutralization of H2SO4(aq), using NaOH(aq), is represented by the following equation:\n\n2NaOH(aq) + H2SO4(aq) --> Na2SO4(aq) + 2H2O(l) \n\nIf 26.30 mL of 0.300 M NaOH(aq) is neutralized by 26.96 mL of H2SO4(aq), what must be the molarity of the H2SO4(aq) used?

Well first figure out how many moles of NaOH you have and then figure out how many moles of Sulfuric necessary for neutralization.  Since you are assuming that this reaction is complete and ideal as well as complete disassociation of the sulfuric (this is not really true only the K1 for sulfuric is very large)...ignoring all of this as well as activities of solutions you can go ahead and solve this.  \n\nStart here:  \nYou have .02630*.3=.00789 mol NaOH\n\nThen take your reaction equation (assuming properyly balanced) and use the ratio to determine the number of moles necessary to neutralize the NaOH so this ratio: \n1 Mol H2SO4 / 2 Mol NaOH \n\nso .00789 * 1/2=0.003945 mol H2SO4\n\nNow you now how many moles used and given this information and the volume used you can get mol/volume\n\nso 0.003945mol H2SO4/.02696L =0.146 Molar Solution\n\n(I calculated these numbers quickly...there shouldn't be a mistake....however if there is the method of solving this type of problem is always the same)

Downloading Music without paying royalty is illegal. I am not watching online, but asking abiut downloading Music Videos for free, from P2Ps and sites like http://www.videopimp.com.  Is it illegeal, or it varies  for different situations. I consider it to be legal because Videos are promotianal, unlike Music and the artists promote their album through the videos.

It is illegal to download any creative work without payment or permission from the artist or their representative unless the artist has placed that work in the public domain.  Commercials are even protected under copyright laws even though they are used to promote and sell a product. A copyright refers to any creative work.


At my school, if u fail a final it barely affects your grade, so whats the point?

Finals are ostensibly used to test your aggregate knowledge of the subject.  Realistically, many teachers use them to offer students a chance to improve their grades or simply because the school system demands that they implement them.


She frequenly goes to and from Singapore sometimes alternately using these 2 passports.

The question needs to be clarified: is this a case if a) Singaporean national or b) non-Singaporean who has dual citizenship of two other countries.\n\nIf b): as long as both passports are legitimate, it would be ok by Singapore immigration.\n\nIf a): it depends on whether or not Singapore allows their citizens to also take citizenship of another country.

If so does the tensile strength increase as it is heated and rapidly cooled

"Next, the glass begins a heat treatment process in which it travels through a tempering oven, either in a batch or continuous feed. The oven heats the glass to a temperature of more than 600 degrees Celsius. (The industry standard is 620 degrees Celsius.) The glass then undergoes a high-pressure cooling procedure called "quenching." During this process, which lasts just seconds, high-pressure air blasts the surface of the glass from an array of nozzles in varying positions. Quenching cools the outer surfaces of the glass much more quickly than the center. As the center of the glass cools, it tries to pull back from the outer surfaces. As a result, the center remains in tension, and the outer surfaces go into compression, which gives tempered glass its strength."\n\nYes, it increases in strength as it's approx 4x as strong as annealed glass.

Since you're 16, I would wager a guess these are "growing pains"  if your height is increasing rapidly, however, there is a rare possibility that the muscles in your chest could tear, and you could develop problems breathing, due to something called a pneumothorax.  If the pain becomes severe, or you're having trouble breathing, go to the hospital immediately.


A week before tonights game, he was playing dodge ball and did something to cause him headaches from that night to the game. Infact, he was hit sooo hard that he went to the local hospital. Will he be okay and when will he get back?

Yes he will be okay. I had a concussion when I was younger and I had a knot on my head the size of a tennis ball. I had to stay awake and under observation at home for at least 24 hours with no sleep because it was a possibility that I could have died if I would've fallen asleep. After the observation period I made it and I was fine after that. If you want more details or more info, you can IM me. My screen name is alicias06.

In the article "Homosexual Behavior in Cross-Cultural Behavior Perspective by J.M Carrier

We in the US live in a more sexually uptight society.  People who react with violence, are usually living in fear.  That fear is internal - they fear that their own sexuality is threatened, that they might not be (and probably aren't) the men they would like to think they were.\n\nAnd they're stronger when united in a group (like a pack of wolves) against a common enemy.  In the group they can confirm their own self-worth, and unite against anyone who would threaten that concept.\n\nThe gays, by intimating that any male can be gay, threatens that group.  They disprove all the manyly things they are saying about each other.  They exploit the weaknesses of heterosexual men.\n\nWhen faced with a threat - it's a fight or flight situation. Men fight.  Especially when they're united in a pack.\n\nI have not read the article you referenced but have read many others on the subject.


On the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen DVD supplementals, he mentioned that he was offered roles in The Lord Of The Rings and The Matrix. In LOTR, you can deduce he was offered Gandalf. He would have made a weird Frodo. But in The Matrix I'm not sure what role he was offered. My wife and I think he may have been offered Morpheous. Anyone out there know what role he was offered?

Strictly rumor, but I heard mention that Connery was offered the role of The Architect and that particular role was going to be bigger than it ultimately turned out to be.


If you know the answer, please provide source information.

Sadly, I feel that men control most of the assets in this country.  \n\nHowever if you consider children to be assets then Im sure women have far more control (legal guaradianship) over them.\n\nSo I guess in the long run you can say men have more assets as far as money goes, but women raise more children thus having great power on the future generations of Americans.  So its a matter of opinion to say who trully has more power/assets.

We all know that USA stands for United States of America....but what about "of"?...I mean...how about USOA?...is "of" too insignificant?...I have often thought this quietly to myself....what do you think?...

In proper grammer, the word "of" isn't capitalized unless it's at the beginning of a title. So it's not often used in abbreviations, probably because the point get across with or without its presence.

This is my favorite type of question, so I'll answer with another question.  Why do we send billions overseas to help other countries when we have so many problems at home?  The real answer to this and many other questions like it is that we as a society let "our" elected officals make choices for us, that's why we are a Republic.  I wish we could have some kind of utopian country where we're a true democracy and the people voted on a budget that is proposed to them by their elected officals.  However it could never happen, we can even agree on Coke or Pepsi.


If I have an Internet connection with static IP, I can use a web server to host a website in my machine. So giving my IP in the adddress bar will show my web page. But If I need a domain name, Is it mandatory to register somewhere even if I am going to host in my machine? \n\nCan you shed some light how the Domain Names are mapped to the corresponding IP addresses?

You do not have to register a domain.  You can host a web page and have other's get to it by entering your IP in their browser.\n\nSounds like you already have this part covered, but...You can download and install a web server.\ngo to http://softpedia.com and search for "webserver".  there are hundreds of free webservers there and other places.\n\nYou can get a sub-domian for free at http://www.dyndns.com/. There are lots of instructions there.  Your address will be something like [yourpage].dyndns.com.\n\nOr, you can register a domain.  I recommend godaddy.com because they include free DNS and they are cheap (under $8/yr).  DNS is what you need o host a page on your site and have a domain point to it.  It basically translates your domain name (yourpage.com) into your IP address (123.123.123.123).  \n\nYou will still probably want to use dyndns.com's free Dynamic DNS serice unless you have a permanent static address from your internet provider.

Can I just plug it in to a tape adapter like I would plug in an ipod?  Do I need to hook up some sort of antenna?  Will i have wires running all over the place?

It works fantastically in the car.  You do not need a cassette adapter.  The car dock has an FM transmiter built in, so you just tune it in on your radio.  The FM transmitter is awesome - works like a charm and sends a super strong signal.  If you prefer the method you use for your iPod, you can plug that right into the line out on the dock as well.  And yes, you need to hook up the antenna that comes with it.  It's magnetic and just slaps right on the roof.  The wire is very thin that runs from the antenna to the dock and is easily hidden.  You WILL NOT have wires all over the place....only 2 wires - the antenna and the power cord which goes into the cigarette lighter.  Again, easily hidden.  From someone who has owned this a few weeks now....buy it!  You will not be disappointed.  You might find some negative feedbag about bugs, but those were fixed this week with a downloadable firmware upgrade.  That's the beauty of this unit - through firmware upgrades, they can add new features down the road.  Who knows what's coming?  The management has announces a portable (wearable) antenna for next spring, and there is speculation already on video for the S50.....there chip inside is mp4 capable!  The screen is awesome and can definitely produce a nice video picture.  You should check out www.siriusbackstage.com.  There's a great forum there with tons of sirius (and s50) info.  You will find answers to all of your questions.

Wife and I looking to take classes in SF and do open water dives on vacation in Carribean, if that's possible, anyone know of good place in SF to get info/take classes?

Great decision!\n\nThere are many places to get certified in San Francisco, but I favor Tom Yang at California Dive Center in San Bruno.\n\nSincere and dedicated, Tom makes diving enjoyable.  He pays attention to his students, and makes sure that you are safe and having a good time.  Very patient.  Tom gets a lot of recommendations, a significant portion of his class is referrals.\n\nWhen we moved back to the Bay Area, I called three instructors and decided that Tom was the best for us.  My recommendation would be to do the same.  Get at least two more recommmendations and talk to each of them.\n\nDiving is a lot of fun, and your dive instruction is an important part.  There are a lot of instructors, each with his/her unique style.  Having an instructor that you get along with and has a teaching style that you like will be very helpful.  Everyone learns differently, so teaching style and personality of the instructor is important.\n\nEnjoy!


I've never been able to get a good answer on this question:  If I sell a stock for a loss in a regular brokerage account, and then purchase that same stock in my IRA account that very day, does the wash sale rule apply?  TIA

When the value of your stock goes down you get that sinking feeling — you've lost money. But the tax law doesn't allow that loss until you sell the stock. In a way that's good, because it means you can control the timing of your deduction, taking it when the benefit is the greatest.\n\nThe problem is, you may have a conflict. You want to deduct the loss, but you also want to keep the stock because you think it's going to bounce back. It's tempting to think you can sell the stock and claim the loss, then buy it back right away. And that's where the wash sale rule comes in. If you buy replacement stock shortly after the sale — or shortly before the sale — you can't deduct your loss.\n\nIt doesn't matter whether you are selling and purchasing the stocks out of two different accounts.  The wash sale rule is tied to you as a person; it is not tied to the account that you use.  You can find much more information about this at the link below.

It's one of the worlds most serious problems and nobody has really talked about it.

Please note that dealing involves possibility of getting shot, possibility of getting arrested, possibility of getting hooked, possibility of some drugged up, freaked out addict deciding you're the anti-christ.\n\nNote also that the reason that dealers make so much money is because drugs ARE illegal.  It's the basic law of supply and demand.  Illegality keeps the supply low, while demand stays the same = dealers making good money.  If they made drugs legal, your basic streetcorner vendor's salary would probably go down quite a bit.

HE IS THE LOVE OF MY LIFE BE HE WILL NOT TALK TO ME ABOUT ANYTHING. I DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO I HAVE TALKED TO HIM ABOUT IT AND HE JUST SAID I DONT HAVE ANYTHING TO TALK ABOUT.

First off, give him a breather, get off his case.  then in a couple days (and don't sulk) tell him he is the love of your life and so you have a good long term relationship there are some things you both need to discuss together, not A question and answer , a discussion, start with saying that you have some concerns, don't be acussatory. No one listens well when they are being accused of something.  Waituntil he seems comfortable to discuss the things you are worried about.  If he is the love of your life/soulmate, it is worth putting some extraordinary effort on your part, then to let your relationship unravel over fear

I am curious to know what are the steps one needs to go through in order to start a small business, from coming up with a business plan, finding investors, etc.

You would think that it is relatively formulaic, but it does differ considerably depending on what you decide to do. \n\nA great starting point is this website: http://www.score.org/. SCORE is a nonprofit association dedicated to entrepreneur education and the formation, growth and success of small business nationwide. \n\nAnother great resource is the US Small Business Association: \n\nhttp://www.sba.gov\n\nTheir start up guide: http://www.sba.gov/starting_business/startup/guide.html is a really good publication that should answer many of your questions.\n\nFinally, this website - http://sbdc.deltacollege.org/startup/ by San Joaquin Delta College Small Business Center is actually an online book that was developed to help prospective small business owners with the often overwhelming process of starting a business-- everything from writing a business plan to finding government contracts. Owners of existing businesses will find additional information in a companion internet book entitled Operating Your Successful Small Business.\n\nIn closing, SCORE offers the following suggestions when planning your new business:\n\n1. Identify your talents. Define your passion and think of it in terms of profit. It may be product-oriented or service-oriented.\n\n2. Consult with colleagues. Mentors, friends, family and a SCORE counselor can provide valuable feedback about your start-up ideas. Their support and suggestions will be valuable as your business venture progresses.\n\n3. Research, research and more research. Learn about the business by attending association meetings, local networking groups and by talking with business owners in similar fields. Research the industry and investigate the competition.\n\n4. Know your money. Analyze your financial resources before pouring your savings into a business venture. Identify both the start-up and ongoing costs. Determine how much you will need to support your family while you build the business.\n\n5. Know yourself. Evaluate your personal strengths and weaknesses. Factors such as motivation, organization, and internal drive will be important to your success.\n\n6. Keep records. Complete, accurate records are needed to file taxes and properly manage your bank accounts. Record new business ideas and business mistakes; these can provide future guidance.\n\n7. Get business counseling from SCORE. Meet with a SCORE counselor, either face-to-face or via email, and discuss on your business ideas. SCORE’s volunteer counselors are experienced business owners and managers who can assist with business planning and forecasting issues.\n\n8. Talk about lifestyle changes. Discuss the possible lifestyle, financial and emotional changes your family will encounter. Air all concerns and make sure your family supports your decision.\n\n9. Find necessary resources. Determine sources of capital, equipment, employees and vendors. Always have back-up sources.\n\n10. Remember your reasons. Before starting a business, write down why you decided become an entrepreneur. Keep this list handy at all times; these reasons will motivate you in good times and in bad.

I think I might have an ulcer, but don't want to see the doc unless I'm pretty sure that's what it is.

Burning pain is the most common symptom of a peptic ulcer. The pain is caused by the ulcer and is aggravated by stomach acid coming in contact with the ulcerated area. The pain typically may:\n\nBe felt anywhere from your navel to your breastbone \nLast from a few minutes to many hours \nBe worse when your stomach is empty \nFlare at night \nOften be temporarily relieved by eating certain foods that buffer stomach acid or by taking an acid-reducing medication \nCome and go for a few days or weeks


I am a Tenant in a duplex.About 2 & 1/2 years ago, the owner put a new roof on the whole duplex.. after about 3- 4 months the new roof was leeking acrossed the area that covers a garage, and also a porch. The area that covers the garage is still leaking.Landlord had the Roofer come to see it,after he was here he wrote a report out to me and the Landlord..He said that the reason rain water was leeking into the garage was cause I had rotted out window sills,between the outer window (Storm window)& the inside window & that I should always close the outer window when it is raining. So then the Landlord called the man that did an outside trim work with aluminum..he came & lined the inside window sill with same kind of alum. material as was used on the outside trim work of all windows around the outside of the house. did not correct the leaking problem, have shown the landlord 3-4 or more X so far & the leaking has created large holes in the ceiling of the garage.Now LL wants 2increase rent.

The state that you live in should have Tenant/Landlord on their website.  It sounds to me that you may be able to put your rent money in Esgrow until the Landlord makes the repairs.  Be certain to keep a Journal and write everything.  Send certified letters to your Landlord...do it all in writing.

I've heard dropping in an aspirin or pouring in some Sprite will keep the tree fresh for a longer period of time.

I've heard this before and have tried it.  It seems to work.  \nI used to work at a florist and we used a 1/2 aspirin everytime we changed the water in a floral arrangement (every 3 days or so.)


There is NO meaning of life. \n\nThis is a tipycal 'human' question, with a religious, metaphysical or morale sign. \n\nlet's take, for example, the answers given until now: \n\n- "The meaning of life is to be able to say at the end that the world is better off for your having been part of it."\nHow do define "better"??? Do you think some presidents don't think they are doing all they can to make this world a better (safer) place? Even when these people are destroying the planet, they believe, based on their values, they are doing something good (well, it is definitely good for their vice-presidents, but that's another story). Also, who do you think you are to determine if the world is a better place just because you passed by it? Our lives (average 75 years) are less than a second if put into perspective with the Earth's age... we are less relevant than a mosquito (individually, because as a group, humans are going to destroy the planet, which is also irrelevant, because there's no 'superior' being that would care about humans disappearing --as nobody cared when the dodos (a bird) disappeared).\n\n- "Well with most species it is to live to reproduce and continue your species... But I don't think that's what God has in mind." \nOf course this answer is ironical (good) when mentioning god, but also establishes that the meaning of life is to reproduce... While you can find a lot of pleasure in the process, defining it as the "meaning" shows you have the intention of finding a "plan" or a "mission"... and I think this is a metaphysical approach. But I tend to find the fight for food and reproduction as the main motors of everything that is alive (not the meaning of life, though).\n\n- "in a religious way, to pray for God..."\nNo comments. Obviously a human/intellectual/metaphysical approach to the question. God is an intellectual invention of men. \n\nsince men are conscious animals, they have the magical thinking that there must be a reason to be here. There is no 'reason'. If you think there is one, you would be accepting that there is a 'meaning', and then you would be having a religious position.\n\n- best answer for me: 42. This was Monty Python, right? hillarious!\n\nwhat do I know?

i need ideas on the best way to propose to her.  i live in santa monica, california.

I think it depends on her... remember, this moment is about her, not you.  I would have preferred a romantic evening, just the two of us, wine & dine, etc... but that is not my wife, who is more sociable.\n\nWhat I did was get one of her best friends to talk about proposals with her- she was great at it, made it sound like she was just making conversation- and then I had the inside info about how she really wanted it done (which was in front of all of her friends).


i have a project work regarding how ecolagy is affecting tourism down fall,i cant find any thing in the net so anydody reading this please help me out.............

Well, in Australia the ecology movement has preserved rainforests and protected whales, bringing\nheaps of tourists to see the whales and walk through the rainforests, and helping tourism.\nOn the downside, the occasional tourist in the tropical areas gets eaten by a crocodile; but hey, if you go swimming in a river marked "Danger - crocodiles" you're gonna get that.

Does any body have a list of trainer names that work for 24 hour fitness?  Thanks for the help.

I found quite a few resumes of trainers who worked for (or are alum) of "24 Hour Fitness." I used boolean search strings on Google, Yahoo and MSN. (Check out the tinyurl links cited under "sources."\n\nHave you considered tracking these personal trainers through local/statewide associations? If not, I have added a link to those associations.\n\nUS Trainer Search is a directory for these types as well, but you have to subscribe to their service. (Link added as well.) I have never used it, so I can not personally vouch for it. \n\nOther sites you may want to explore are Hireatrainer, Personal Trainer Direct and Pecs N Abs. \n\nAs a side note, if you are ever looking to find these types just out of school, try CNI College. That link is listed as well. \n\nLast but not least, if you like to learn more techniques for finding candidates to recruit, check out The Digability Blog. \n\nThe Digability Blog\nhttp://digability.blogspot.com


Besides absolutely nothing, I'd like to hear some "politically sound" comments from people who actually favor war.

Gosh, who really "favors" war as if they like it. There may be some, but I think most everyone would like to avoid it. \n\nWhat it is good for is another matter. A country and a people can control themselves and fix their own problems without war (for the most part). But what do you do with other countries that are out of your control? What do you do with Nazi Germany? Just let them take over the world? Or how about the the more controversial "war on terror". Do you just let terrorists keep attacking or do you try to prevent their ability to communicate and to organize? \n\nI sure hope that I never have to fight in a war. What I do know of it is pretty terrible. But there are some things in the world that are worth fighting for. And things that even HAVE to be fought for unless you want to die or be slaves to others.

For example, Peninsula Golf and Country Club.....then I tried home page peninsula golf and country club.  Found lots of other web sites that mention them, but could not find the home page in the top ten results and do not find it useful to wade through 10 pages of findings... FYI Google isn't much better these days either...my recent most basic searches are turning up irrelevant and or scarcely related links.   Seems all the advances in search technology are causing results to be diluted.

This isn't the fault of Yahoo or Google.  It's 1st that the site you're searching for hasn't optimized their site to show up properly in natural search results.  Search engines regularly spider websites and look for keywords in certain areas of the site.  If the site has optimized so that they can be found, they will be found.  However, sites that have done a better job of optimizing for these same keywords will show up higher in the results.  \n\n2nd-To get better results, try eliminating phrases from your searches like "home page".  These are not keywords that the site will have optimized for and you've put them at the front of your search phrase.  Next, put quotes around the entire phrase "Peninsula Golf and Country Club" so the you'll only get results with that exact phrase.  Hope this is helpful!

How much would a dual-core processor benefit my working in Photoshop, as opposed to a single-core?  Is the increased productivity, in your opinion, worth the added expense?

My own experience with Photoshop on multiprocessor machines has been very positive. While I don't have actual numbers from my own tests, you can look at these Photoshop/Dual Core articles and benchmarks:\n\nFirst source: "Adobe Photoshop CS is a graphic artist's übertool: Hardly any graphic art work can get done without it. We tested the Opteron whitebox with Photoshop CS, and it shows some improvement over the already speedy Pentium EE 840. Out of the eight filters, the Opteron wins three of the tests, and on the others is only a second behind. The Pentium EE 840 took 2.5 times longer to complete the wave filter which skews the results, but excluding that time, the results are nearly identical overall. Both the dual-core Pentium EE 840 and dual-core, dual-CPU Opteron workstations are formidable PhotoShop platforms, and both would service a graphic artist well."\n\nSee the benchmarks on this first source's link.\n\nSecond source: "There is no doubt that a program like Photoshop will be much faster on a dual core system than its single core counterpart. The majority of operating systems do recognize and support at least two processors. There is some load balancing of non-SMP applications but not as efficiently as those written for multithreading."


i'm 25 and i don't have health insurance, so i can't afford a diagnosis, but i need to know if i'm suffering from depression.  i think i have some signs, but i'm not sure if they are REALLY signs of depression.  for example, i have serious fatigue, violent mood swings, short term memory loss, inabilaty to focus, dwindaling relationships and the constant thought that i'm losing this battle that's probably all in my head, but i don't know how to stop it.  what's my deal?

Baby, if you ain't depressed, you're missing an awful good chance to be! You may have more than depression. Depression can be a symptom of another problem, anything from mental and emotional troubles to the physical. Insured or not, I strongly advise you to get a checkup at the local clinic (they usually have sliding fee, and sometimes can help for free). There is a questionairre they all have which will only take a few minutes to do, and they can refer you to a professional counselor if the meds don't help. (Alot of times it is just a chemical imbalance.) There is no shame in having a mental or emotional disease, only a shame if one doesn't get help for it!


I've seen it used for tutorials and a little in animation, but does anyone know of a website that has extensively used flash 8's capabilities?

Flash 8 is more then just video. It has great video capabilities as well as back end integration with almost every programming language known to man.

I know there are a lot of auction sites out there to compete with Ebay.  \n\nBut are there any GOOD ones?  Ones that a lot of people use?   Or are they all barren wastelands, like Yahoo Auctions?

I would suggest that if you can work out a way to live without the auction format you would do really well with the Classified sites that are growing out there right now. eBay certainly is focussing in on them with the launch of http://www.kijiji.com/\n\nMy favourite classifieds sites are http://www.gumtree.com/ and http://www.craigslist.com


Yes, it is! Its a harmless addiction though :) The withdrawal symptoms may be bad though.


It's an extremely minute amount of time, but they have to be calibrated.  It's due to the speed they are traveling.  Einstien, sure.  But they look to be in the same time as us seen through a telescope.  I just can't wrap my brain around it.

You're right, it is due to the speed they are traveling.  Velocity distorts time by the factor: t'=t/sqrt(1-v^2/c^2) where t' is the time that passes for a stationary observer, t is the time that passes for the object moving at the high velocities, c is the speed of light, and v is the velocity the object is moving.  \n\nThis effect is basically negligable unless the object is moving close to the speed of light, but the orbiting satellite is moving pretty fast for a very long time, and so even though it's traveling at a very small velocity relative to the speed of light, it still builds up a little and creates a small distortion of time that is barely noticeable.  For example, let's say the satellite is traveling at 8,000 m/s for 5 years.  if you do the math, there are 157680000 seconds in 5 years.  The speed of light is 299792458m/s.  Now lets see how much this effects time.   That number will be t', since it's how much time passes on earth for 5 years.  Now let's see about on the satellite:\n157680000=t/sqrt(1-(8000^2/299792458^2)  solving for t, (must have fancy calculator with a LOT of places) we get t= 157679999.88772s  subtracting this from the original time, the clock is behind by .11228 of a second.  \n\nTime moved slower for the satellite, but since the velocity is so small compared to the speed of light, the amount that is different is so insignificant, that you wouldn't be able to see the difference through a telescope.  However, they want the clocks to be perfectly calibrated and exact, so they do that to make up for this small effect because it would build up more and more as time went on, and the faster the satellite is moving, the more time is distorted.


I was perscribed Bactrim, an antibiotic usually used for ear infections and such, to treat my acne. When I go back to college though, I have every intention of drinking alcohol on the weekends (I don't drink ridiculously dangerous amounts, but enough to have fun.) I'm worried about the possible effects of drinking while on this medication. Will it just decrease the antibiotic's ability to work, or make me more succeptible to intoxication? Or is it an actually dangerous combination?

Here's a link that should answer your questions.\n\nGood luck.


First you need to figure out whether or not he likes you before you find a strategy. Make friends with his friends, ask where he hangs out so you can get more time alone to get a better vibe, but don't turn into a stalker!If you do find out if he doesn't like you (im sure he does, but just in case) don't try to force anything and try being friends. If he really appreciates you as a friend, he'll come around to looking at you in a different 'more than friends' light. Good luck!


If you saw an illegal immigrant cross the U.S border without permission, will you call the cops? Why?

I would tell him if he works so hard and so cheap turn around and make Mexico a wealthy country. If you say the goverment is preventing such thing from happening then start a revoulution thats the way we took this nation from it's rightful owners. It was the beginning of the end for the people that are the only true citenzins of this land.


I would like to know how we can connect them together and what kind of PID controller and rhestat is needed for using two 2.5 kw elements working parallel.

A very good question -- in my experience the key to good control is placement and mass of the temperature sensor.\n\nYou can use a thermocouple or an RTD (resistance temperature device) depending on your temperature range.\n\nBut in most factory process controls the biggest problem is how to make sure that the sensor is measuring the ambient temperature, or the temperature of the object being heated. If any radiant heat energy falls on the sensor, you will get meaningless temperature readings.\n\nIn some cases a simple reflective shield will allow the sensor to measure the ambient temperature.\n\nSometimes the sensor is embedded in either the object or in a dummy object with similar characteristics. After all your goal is to control the RIGHT temperature, not just any temperature.\n\nThe sources below give a typical easy to use PID controller and a high power SSR.\n\nThe controller has an autotune function -- this is very key because tuning a PID controller can be very frustrating. You can end up with wildly cycling kooky results unless you are experienced.\n\nRemember that a Proportional Integrating Controller is a big step up from a bang-bang on off relay type controller. \n\nProportional just means that it can send a small milliamp signal to the Solid State Relay allowing it to proportionally adjust the heat output of your resistance heaters.\n\nIntegrating can be interpreted to mean that the PID takes into account the amount of heat you have already pumped into the system. So it can avoid shooting a big pulse of heat into an oven which it already knows is pretty fired up already.\n\nAnd Derivative means it watches the rise or fall of the temperature curve to prevent overshooting and undershooting. This keeps the temperature from varying wildly. Maybe! Depends on if you know how to tune it.\n\nGive these folks a phone call, they offer free application consulting, even for small projects.


If you had a million dollars and gave away one quarter, and another quarter, and then another quarter, how much would you have left?

well,\n\nif you gave away actual quarter coins you would have $999,999.25\n\nif you gave away a quarter of a million dollars each time you would have $250,000.00\n\nor if you gave away a quarter of a million dollars the first time and then a quarter of the money that was left and then lastly a quarter of that then you would have $421,875.00


this is the question they're gonna ask when i go in for the interview for supervisor. help me out thanks.

I would say something to this effect... "Are you asking aside from having the knowledge of how the operation works and what is required to get the job done correctly?  My answer would be that I appreciate the diversity of those who will be working under me.  Team work is essential along with fairness and responsibility.  I enjoy problem solving and welcome the challenge that will come before me. My track record in this department shows that I am qualified for this position and I look forward to growing and moving forward with the company."

Why do we need new shoes? When the cushioning goes out in the mid sole...we can just replace them with Dr. Scholls. So why do we need a new shoe if the one we have  isnt worn out? The outsole is pretty hard...kind of useless if you ask me. So is Nike making money off of us having to buy shoes for a flimsy $5 cushion pad?

You basically need new shoes because new shoes have molding in them that forms to your foot, and they also have brand new parts on them like the air pockets in mine. Older shoes wear out and the molding is lost as your foot moves around, making them loose, and the padding and tread beneath your foot is worn thin.


they leave there wifes and husbands....kids... to fight for this country, why?

Actually, wouldn't you think if they stayed at home with their families that that would be more selfish? It's very noble that they are fighting for their country. Whether or not they're fighting for a stupid cause, that's a different topic. The fact they're willing to lay down their lives is unselfish.


I just wanted to know who and how Yahoo was invented?

Yahoo! began as a student hobby and evolved into a global brand that has changed the way people communicate with each other and access, share and create information. The two founders of Yahoo!, David Filo and Jerry Yang, Ph.D. candidates in Electrical Engineering at Stanford University, started their guide in a campus trailer in February 1994 as a way to keep track of their personal interests on the Internet. Before long they were spending more time on their home-brewed lists of favorite links than on their doctoral dissertations. Eventually, Jerry and David's lists became too long and unwieldy, and they broke them out into categories. When the categories became too full, they developed subcategories... and the core concept behind Yahoo! was born.

I understand that Easter is determined based on the full moon for Passover, but is there a mathematical calculation to determine the (julian) date of Easter, for a given year Y?

The calculations for the date of Easter can be somewhat complicated. See computus for a discussion covering both the traditional tabular methods and more exclusively mathematical algorithms such as the one developed by mathematician Carl Friedrich Gauss.\n\nIn the Western Church, Easter has not fallen on the earliest of the 35 possible dates, March 22, since 1818, and will not do so again until 2285; it fell on the latest possible date, April 25 most recently in 1943, and will next fall on that date in 2038.\n\nHistorically, other forms of determining the holiday's date were also used. For example, Quartodecimanism was the practice of setting the holiday on the 14th day of the Jewish month of Nisan, which is the day of preparation for Passover.


It's hard for me to buy into the whole AMD thing, even though I think the processors are better quality. Their low speeds, even though it's technically the same as a Pentium makes me cautious. What do you think?

Oh boy, if this is anything like slashdot you've just started a religious war!\n\nSeriously though, AMD fans usually highlight the low power consumption and the lower heat generated by their AMD processor compared to their Intel counter parts.\n\nI haven't personally touched an AMD system, I've had a bad experience with IBM's cyrix and decided since then that if Intel works fine for me why switch (I could be wrong).\n\nThe bottom line is, use whatever works for you or your budget and if you have the extra cash or the access to an AMD then give it a try.

It seems like a stupid question, but doesnt "chromo" mean "color"? How does this make sense?

Yes, I remember hearing that when people first started looking at chromosomes under the microscopes, they just looked like colored bodies in the cell.  In other words, they stain.  So in that way, "chromo" makes sense.  In fact, I believe "some" means body, so a chromosome is a "colored body".


I don't fear terrorist, I fear the idea of keeping American in fear until fear is the norm.  That way politicans can do anything they want, as long as its under the guise of the safety of America.

I completely agree with Franklin we should not give up the liberties he fought so valiantly for, not for any reason.\n\nNow please tell me exactly what liberties he was talking about that you are saying we are loosing?  \n\nThe liberal press in the name of the almighty $ is the group that is pushing fear in this country because you are buying it.  Supply and demand, you are demanding a artificial fear to try to drive republicans out of the majority.  The press is suppling it by the bucket.  \n\nFor you edification I've provided a link to the bill of rights.\n\nI can only assume you are arguing that somehow IV is being challenged?  \nAmendment IV\nThe right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.\n\nSome how you have assumed that unreasonable means never? Or that the place has not been described? Searches at airports have been described so you know it's going to happen, therefore your rights have not been violated.  Certainly a known terrorist calling you warrants a resonable search to the point of listening to the conversation by our anti-terrorism forces.


Throughout history and many various cultures, polygamy has been considered reasonable.  No ancient culture that I am aware of ever sanctioned homosexual marriage.  It existed, but it was considered unnatural.  Polygamy was considered natural.  If the door is opened to that which has always been considered unnatural, what rationale might exist to forbid the return of polygamy?

It might lead to it in the long run, polygamists might eventually get the court precidence if gay marriage goes through. Legally speaking, it could easily happpen. There really hasn't been "homosexual marriage" in history, but there have been hundreds of societal examples of it being extremely common, and expected, valued, and practiced - the greeks, the spartans, the japanese, etc. It has only been considered 'unnatural' in some western cultures over the past 1,000 years or so. In many cultures, it has only become 'unnatural' in the last 200 years or less, and that is simply because of Western ideals being imported.


Whats the difference between a router and a hub?

Short answer:\n\nA router is an intelligent device that allows a central connection to an internet connection.  Basically connects a LAN to the internet.  It also provides many internet like services from that single connection to the PC's connected to it.\n\nA hub is a dumb networking device that only passes all traffic from one computer to all computers connected.  It does not route the traffic in any way.  It's for local area networks only.\n\nThere is also a switch which does a small amount of traffic control in a local area network.  This helps make connections in the LAN faster with 3 or more computers.

If you have a copy of the paper for educational purposes you can send it to spkranthisagar@yahoo.co.in\n\nComing to your question.\nI might be a novice to answer such a question from you. I would only try to comment. Yeah big companie's policies are always not clear. Some obvious things seem to be difficult.\n\nIt may be because of the big organizations employ ordinary people like me along with smart folks like you....\n\nEvery one should be given right positions. Even if it means most of the workers in a company not even logging and programming in your main server of the organization. Big companies always tradeoff quality with productivity/money. What good of a dollar is if it does not serve a purpose.\n\nEspecially in the technology driven days...\n\nHave good day.


We need men of character to take India into new horizons. IAS gives you the right platform to do this. Iam a software engineer right now with a handsome salary. Will it be the right decision to enter into Civil Services, taking into account the stench of corruption and malpractices in Government institutions ??

yes it is! best of luck!\neven if it is corruption, if you have the will and the tact, you can make a difference. as an IAS, you will be able to effect changes for the betterment of the people of India, even if the changes are in a subtle way. You can try influencing your BOSS who might be a minister.. but look at the present scenario.. with the media becoming fiery and many young conscientious leaders coming up, you can definitely do something for India and for yourself as well.


What is the best strategy / books. Any advice from you experts would be of great help.

I would suggest that you start with an easy appraoch by following David Kruglinski(1). Then move on to more MFC by Jeff Prosise(2) and then to MFC Internals(3).\n\nBut the question I have for you is: Why??\n(There are so many better technologies out now)


"I have a one year old Toshiba Satellite P30 17" Laptop, that for all intensive purposes works great. About a month ago, I took it back to Futureshop/Best Buy where I bought it to add a 512mb stick of RAM, to total 1GB.\n\nThat took only a few minutes and was relatively painless - but about a week later I noticed when playing a game full-screen (obviously processor and resource-intensive) the computer all of a sudden turned off.\n\nA few qualification points:\n\nI'm running SpeedFan 4.2 and have average startup temperatures of 80-85F, but within minutes I'm at between 90-100F, sometimes as high as 105F.\n\nObviously I keep the unit in a relatively cool space, no heat sources nearby, with all ventilation unobstructed.\n\nSidenote: I've put the laptop out the window (safely) and watched the temperature drop to high 70'sF and still shuts off.\n\nIs this a virus? Hardware failure? Has anyone ever had this happen from a RAM swap/add?\n\nAny help is great!

RAM is such a tricky thing. Did u upgrade with a stick of RAM that is by the same manufactuer (also the same specs)?  If not then there can be some conflict between the 2.  Since u took it to the shop for them to install it, I assume u aren't comfortable with removing/installing the RAM yourself?  I ask because u could take out the old RAM and try running the computer with just the new RAM to see if u have the same symptoms.  An option to try w/o opening up your computer would be to run a small memory testing program from a CD that can tell u if your new memory is bad.  Go to http://www.memtest86.com/ dowload, unzip and burn to a CD


theres this girl i go to h-s with and she is a total #&*%@!**(ya you get the point) she talks alot of stuff about me and my bestfriend!<--->(used to be hers untill she said her newborn nephew was gonna ruin her life) I also went out with her ex, but she said she didnt care! well she did, whitch is not my problem cuz he doesnt like her anymore(that me and everyone knows of). well anyway we went out for 2 weeks(her ex), And i started to hear from her that he didnt like me and was just using me. so i talk to him and he said no, but i couldnt take it anymore so i broke it off! well to this day she is still talking about me! ive confronted her, told teachers and all that stuff but she wont stop! i need like revenge or something any ideas?

Overt revenge is stupid, and puts you in jeopardy.  High school is stupid, people can be mean. Just ignore her and get on with your life.  Women hate to be ignored and can sometimes be the best revenge.

How can I get my menstrual cycle to be regular? I am 18 and used to take the pill to get montly cycles, but I have stopped taking it for a month and have not seen any results. I am worried if this affects my health or fertility chances.

I used to get the Depo Provera shot, which is almost the same as the pill. I started getting it when I was 15, was on it for 2 years and then stopped. It took almost a year for me to get my period. I recently started again a few years ago and have been off of it for a little over a year and my period still isn't regular. My OB/GYN said that it can take up to 2 years for your body to rid itself of the birth control (whether it be the pill or the shot) and go back to normal. Just be patient. It'll balance out eventually.


with flow charts of this devices and latest picture of this device.

A network bridge connects multiple network segments (network domains) along the data link layer. It is sometimes called a network switch, and it works by using bridging. Traffic from one network is forwarded through it to another network. The bridge simply does what its name entails, by connecting two sides from adjacent networks.\n\nA repeater is a similar device that connects network segments at the physical layer. An Ethernet hub is a type of repeater.\n\nIn Ethernets, the term "bridge" formally means a device that behaves according to the IEEE 802.1D standard - this is most often referred to as a network switch in marketing literature.


With Murton in left, Pierre in center, and Jones in right, the outfield should be excelent on the defense side, but how will they do at the plate.

they should do okay, probably perform better as a whole than last years did.  Each guy will fit some of the roles the Cubs needed to fill, last year they depended too much on the homerun

personally i dont think there is any nice place to live in LA.


why is it that when a man knows that somthing is bothering a woman and he ask her "whats wrong" they always say "nothing" ... but if the roles are reversed he tells her whats bothering him.

The right and left hemispheres of the human brain are connected by a huge nerve bundle called the corpus callosum.  In the male fetus when male hormones are generated the corpus callosum shrinks reducing cross-communication.  Because the left hemisphere deals with logic and the right hemisphere deals with emotion, women connect all logic better with emotion than men do.  Although a man can chose, he is always either logical or emotional but rarely both at the same time.  A man either flies off the handle or thinks the problem through.  A woman can weep or laugh when she discovers something that makes sense.  This explains why women are better at nurturing (cranky) children and men are better at hunting for bears (or a six pack).  You figure out the rest.  I can't.


Two people, one always lies and the other always tells the truth. You need to find the truthful one and are allowed to ask only one question? What is that question?

In the film "The Labyrinth," the heroine comes across two talking doors.  She must choose which door to enter.  The real brain-tickler is the preface that one of the talking doors always tells the truth and the other always lies.\n\nThe heroine poses the question to door A, "If I asked door B, 'Which door leads to my destination?' what would he say?"\n\nIf door A responds, "He would say your destination lies behind me," then she knows the real path is behind door B because no matter who is lying and who is truthful, the lier's response will negate the truthful one's.\n\nIf door A responds, "He would say your destination lies behind himself," then it can be deduced that the path is behind door A, again following this logic of reversal.\n\nSo, whatever response either door gives will always be incorrect and the heroine should choose the other door.


I do not know how I can found out about my relatives who lived in small village named Bolinaz, CA near San Francisco. Some web pages of village Bolinaz...please...

My rubber plant (probably ficus elastica) seems healthy and is growing new leaves, but it has been losing its lower leaves one at a time for some time now.  It's starting to look more like a tree than a bush.  Is this normal?\n\nI water once or twice/week (usually once/week) and fertilize every three months or so with the little plant food sticks that you bury in the soil.

This is normal IMHO, and it sounds like you are doing a fine job. They also supposidly like having a regular dust and the old leaves being removed from the pot if applicable. I've looked after mine for over 7 years now; I still get the joy, heheh.\n\nTo start with, I found the plant grew very predictabilty upwards, loosing leaves slowly at the bottom for several years. Then after lobbing the top off a few times over the years (think carefully, and take a deep breath for this) buds for new 'runners' seemed to spring up even lower down, and it has become more tree-like; branching at the top.\n\n The 'leaning' towards the sun will likely be the trickey thing to manage!!\n\nGL :)


What are the key differences between Russsian and Belarusian languages (phonetical, morphological, synatctical)?

Actually, it is spelled Belarusian now. It used to be spelled Belorussian during Soviet times. It is essentially a mixture of all neighbouring languages: Polish, Russian and Ukranian. The differences are very slight, but I think people who speak Belarusian understand other Slavic languages much easier than those who speak Russian. I could go into detail if you'd like because I speak both languages fluently.

You should grab a copy of the book "Remembering the Kana" by James Heisig.  You may be able to find it at your library or from Amazon.com.  If you find a more recent version of the book it will teach you both the hiragana and the katakana.  You should be able to master both in a matter of hours (over the course of a few days at least) with this excellent book.  It worked for me!


I need an example (with a picture, if that's possible) of a system where energy of momentum are conserved.

An example is any collisions.  In collisions, momentum is always conserved.  In elastic collisions, kinetic energy is also conserved.  In inelastic collisions, however, kinetic energy is not conserved.


Seinfeld himself said 'no' after the flak from when it aired. I saw the episode, and thought it was funny. I think that, taken out of context, people think 'Sienfeld burnt a PR flag' sounds bad, but if you saw it, it's not like that.\n\nI think.

Just curious, I don't think I would do that.

Please don't give your plant a vitamin made for a human. The plant is energetically connected to you now. Just from sharing in your space. It would be in your best intrest to take very good care of the plant. It will bring you prosperity.

A real estate "Bubble" is the state in which home prices are highly inflated, and is characterised by a high proportion of investors buyers with the intent to "flip" thier invetments in a short time. This causes homes to spiral out of reach to many buyers.

I talked to a co-worker's husband who happens to be a real estate agent at the recent company holiday party. In short, his answer was yes, there is a bubble and that the market really is cooling considerably.

I want to set up 2 different accoints using outlook express, but I do not want them together. I want to be able to check them separately. Anyone have any ideas?

You can use different "identities".  Each Identity will have it's own inbox etc.\n\nOpen Outlook Express, go to File --> Identities --> Add New Identity.\n\nYou will need the address, Incoming, and Outgoing servers.  Basically all of the stuff you needed to set up your first account.


The effectiveness of the flu shot varies substantially based on how accurate health authorities are at guessing what they prevalent flu strains will be.  They must determine months ahead of time what flu vaccine to make to accomodate the lead time of manufacturers, and come wintertime, those strains may not be the most prevalent.\n\nIn years where the strains were determined correctly, the vaccine is up to 90% effective according to the CDC.  However, even in a recent year where not all of the strains were identified properly, the vaccine was still 52% effective.  So your chances of getting the flu seem to be substantially reduced by getting the shot.


It could not matter less whether John Titor was from 2036.\n\nHis predictions, or memories, if you prefer, come to pass, with each additional year, to the chagrin of debunkers and supporters alike. There is little room for debating the accuracy of his astute political commentray illuminating our time and likely our immediate future.\n\nSadly anyone mired in disputing his 'quantum mechanics' and 'string theory' is sorely missing the plain truth all around them. When queried, "What is the one thing you would want us to remember?".\n\nPlease, please wake up. Look at the signposts around you now. - John Titor (2000.11.25)\n\nSurely those debunkers would be better served correlating Titor's intel against the variety of (.gov) agencies currently doling it out in scheduled pieces.\n\nI read somewhere:\n\n| 1866§2 | 170:5.19 | Sooner or later another and greater John the Baptist is due to arise proclaiming "the Kingdom of God is at Hand"—meaning a return to the high spiritual concept of Jesus, who proclaimed that the Kingdom is the will of his heavenly Father dominant and transcendent in the heart of the believer—and doing all this without in any way referring either to the visible church on earth or to the anticipated second coming of Christ.\n\nThanks, LoTek, your link provides the cleanest and only bookmarked presentation of his late 2000, early 2001, message board debacle, I have encountered.

murder is unsolved, just share your theory.

Assassination\n\nOlof Palme could often be seen without any bodyguard protection, and the night of his murder was one such occasion. Walking home from a movie theatre with his wife Lisbet on the central Stockholm street Sveavägen, close to midnight on February 28, 1986, the couple were attacked by a lone gunman. Palme was shot twice in the stomach, his wife was shot in the back.\n\nPolice said that a taxi-driver used his mobile radio to raise the alarm. Two young girls sitting in a car close to the scene of the shooting tried to help the Prime Minister. He was rushed to hospital but was dead on arrival; Mrs Palme's wound was treated and she recovered. The attacker escaped eastwards on the crossing Tunnelgatan and disappeared.\n\nDeputy Prime Minister Ingvar Carlsson immediately assumed the duties as Prime Minister and as new leader of the Social Democratic Party.\n\nConspiracy theories\n\nPalme's assassination remains unsolved, with a number of conspiracy theories surrounding the murder.


May I take responsibility to pay for my nieces'\nYahoo ISP and DSL in the cities of Tacloban City,\nLeyte; and Cebu City, Cebu, Philippines? I am in the\nUnited States of America.

Yahoo is not an ISP,its a Portal provider per say, your probably using SBC Yahoo DSL service, well in the Philippines, specifically in tacloban or cebu, they have ISP's that supports DSL. \nPLDT would cost about 1,000-1,500 pesos while globe on the other hand cost about 900-1,500 pesos. This would depend on the phone line that they are using. So roughly about 15-20 dollars a month for you.

I just can't add one song on my ipod shuffle(512M)\nPlz help me~

Normally, you need to use iTunes to transfer songs to an iPod.  However, if you use winamp (http://www.winamp.com) you can download the mI_iPod plugin that allows you to use winamp to transfer your songs (http://www.winamp.com/plugins/details.php?id=138888\n).  If you're still having problems, then I suggest you contact apple, because your shuffle may be defective and need replacing.

I just moved from South Florida to Virginia, where I bought a house.  I thought I would really like the area, but it has been nothing like I thought it would be...\nDo you think that it's worth moving again and trying a new state?

that is what i am doing, but im not moving to another state, just another part of town.  you need to ask your self what kind of town is the best place for you.  what are you looking for.  small town were it is quite but no shopping centers for 140 miles (that is Gillette, WY. were i am at) or large city were you have tons of thing to choose from for your free time, but cost of liveing, crime , and houses are a lot higher.  there is no reason to be misrable if you dont like being were your at.  if you have the fredom of leaving when ever you want then do it.

but it is difficult to prove that the substance is an element. Why is this so?\nPlease answer this question briefly.

With modern chemistry and quantum physics knowledge, we know 104 elements. \n\nAn element is defined by proton count, which in turn determines the number of electrons in orbit. Hence we know we aren't missing any elements in between, all numbers between 1 and 104 are known.\n\nThis leaves elements with proton counts of 105 or greater. The greatest difficulty in identifying these is that they are extremely unstable. The observer needs to be lucky and skilled to observe one of these superheavy elements before it decays.\n\nEven more so since these elements are produced by colliding heavy ions at high speed, creating lots of  energy at the collision. Capturing such an element and identifying its mass charge ration in a mass spectrometer or getting spectroscopical data that can be fitted to the theoretical energies one would expect is hard under these circumstances.


Is there a way to burn a cd so my xbox can read it and vice versa?

The problem isn't within your encoding, its that Xbox hardware doesn't read most CD-R's.  You can buy the Xbox Music Mixer program which will allow you to transfer songs from your PC to your Xbox over your network. You could also modify your Xbox with a mod chip, then you can stream music from your pc, copy songs over a network, and do many other things.  \n\nIf you have a DVD-R, you may be able to use that to make a disk your Xbox can read, just record it as an Audio DVD so it makes each song in CDA format, your xbox will then code them back into WMA which is the format it uses.  You can't format it for the xbox by yourself, unless you use the Xbox music mixer and copy it from your PC.


in the nursey rhyme pop goes the weasle.

This is one version of the rhyme:\nHalf a pound of tuppenny rice,\nHalf a pound of treacle.\nThat’s the way the money goes,\nPop goes the weasel.\n\nUp and down the City road,\nIn and out the Eagle,\nThat’s the way the money goes,\nPop goes the weasel.\n\nEvery night when I go out\nthe monkey’s on the table.\nTake a stick and knock it off\nPop goes the weasel.\n\nA penny for a ball of thread\nAnother for a needle,\nThat’s the way the money goes,\npop goes the weasel.\n\nAll around the cobblers bench\nthe monkey chased the people;\nThe donkey thought ’twas all in fun,\npop goes the weasel. Before anybody rushes to put fingers to keyboard, let me say that this is by no means the only version of the lyric. There are several others, especially from the United States. But this is the usual British version, a famous catchy rhyme (or at least, as you say, the first two verses are).\nThe earliest reference I can find to music with this name actually comes from the United States, from sheet music entitled “Pop goes the Weasel for Fun and Frolic”, published in 1850 by Messrs Miller and Beacham of Baltimore. Another from three years later refers to “the latest English dance” and also “an old English Dance lately revived”, so it seems to have been imported from Britain. None of these early versions had any lyrics apart from a repeated “Pop goes the weasel”, the catch line of the dance, which was sung or shouted by the dancers as one pair of them darted under the arms of the others. Several references in books and magazines suggest that the tune soon became extremely well known, and that pop goes the weasel became a catchphrase, as it later did in Britain. There have been suggestions that the phrase was intended to be ribald or erotic, though the explanations I’ve seen are somewhat fanciful.\nFollowing first publication of this article, David Joyce wrote that: “The tune is a version of that used for the country dance, The Haymakers, which has the same form as Strip the Willow, and Bab at the Bowster (a couple hold hands, forming a bridge, which the other couples have to pass under). The tune was published in Gow’s Repository, issued in four volumes between 1799 and 1820. Thus the tune was around at least half a century before the American publication of Pop Goes The Weasel, but is certainly very much older. (It is similar to the tune used for Humpty Dumpty, and not far removed from Lilliebulero and Rock A-bye Baby, all jigs traceable back to the seventeenth century.)”\nThe first British mention of the phrase pop goes the weasel dates from an advertisement by Boosey and Sons of 1854 which described “the new country dance ‘Pop goes the weasel’, introduced by her Majesty Queen Victoria” (a puff to be taken with a large pinch of salt, we may assume). It would seem from the dates that the title was taken from the American publication of 1850.\nTalking of Queen Victoria, I found these words attached to the tune in the March 1860 issue of the Southern Literary Messenger of Richmond, Virginia:\nQueen Victoria’s very sick,\nPrince Albert’s got the measles.\nThe children have the whooping cough,\nAnd pop! Goes the weasel. Her Majesty would not have been amused.\nYour version was a British music-hall song of the latter part of the Victorian period (quite when I haven’t been able to discover); it is highly probable that the words were composed to the tune of the earlier dance because everyone on both sides of the Atlantic seems to have the same one, even if the words are different.\nSome of the references are now quite opaque, but we can take a fair shot at a few. In the second verse, the City Road was—still is—a well-known street in London, more than a mile long. The Eagle was a famous public house and music hall, which lay near the east end of the road on the corner of Shepherdess Walk; this had started its life as a tea-garden, but was turned into a music hall in 1825 (one of the very first); it e

what about prostitution?\n\nmost of our modern allies tolerate both. why dont we?

Yes, marijuana should be legalized.  If you were to put the stats together, you would see that many, many more rapes, murders, thefts, assaults, fatal car crashes, deadly occupational accidents, and various other crimes have been committed under the influence of alcohol.  Recently, a young man was arrested for murdering his mother. His line of defense was that he was under the influence of Marijuana.  Marijuana does not make one aggressive in the least. Anyone that does or has smoked will testify to that. Marijuana has a relaxing effect, not to mention its medicinal benefits.  As for prostitution, it should also be legalized. It is THE oldest profession in the WORLD. You cannot put a restriction on ones body.  The only way to stop it would be to eliminate one of the sexes. Just my guess, but there would probably be a drop in sex crimes and sexually transmitted diseases if prostitution were to become legal.  THE ONLY REASON NEITHER OF THESE THINGS ARE LEGAL, IS BECAUSE OUR GOVERNMENT CANT FIGURE A WAY TO CONTROL OR TAX THEM. (Like cigarettes and alcohol. Which by the way is two very high contributors to our mortality rate here in America.)  Hence the war against them.
