Express the following measurements as a number word preceded by a 1.\n\n100 liters...help

100 liters equals one what?\n\nKangaroos Hop Down Under drinking chocolate milk - KHDUdcm\n\n\nK Kilo\nH Hecto\nD Deca\nU base unit (liters in this case)\nd deci\nc centi\nm milli\n\n\nHow many places do you need to move the decimal to make 1?  2 to the left.

Looking for advice about glossey paint and such. any info would be helpful

Okay so good question, Col thinks he is right but SJB is.  The question was how too paint a surboard, not a foam blank. Col told us how to paint a blank before its been fiberglassed and SJB told us to do it when the fiberglass was already on, meaning it was then a surfboard.\n\nAnyway it is done a lot with already made surfboards. They lightly sandpaper the existing fibreglass where the spray work is going to be done, they lightly sandpaper it so the paint will hold better. Then they put a new coating of resin (fibreglass) onto the board, wolla , all done and lookin good.  \n\nPaint jobs look wicked on boards,  who'd wanna be riding a stock standard board when you can stand out.


If you could have dinner with any five people living or dead \nI mean ANYONE-religious figures, politicians, movie stars, whomever you would like to sit with, eat with and talk with at a dinner party. Remember they can be lving or dead.

how would you first react, and what are you going to tell him next without hurting him?

Tell him that you're not ready to say it and put that sort of label on your feelings. But that you feel for him. That you care about him. When my man first told me, I din't say it back. I told him That I feel for him. It made me really nervous. I told him never to say it unless he means it, because I would never say anything empty.


if ur boy.F hasn't called u in a while and u decided to call him and talk 4 a little \nwhile but for a few seconds he said he'll call u back but hasn't yet and u felt bad b/c u wanted to talk to him more than that and b4 ya'll hung up u said u loved him and he said he loves u too. Does he still and care 4 u or about the situation or is it over between the two?

His mind is on something else. But dont worry yet cuz worryin gets u no where.  just keep being that honest and truthful girlfriend you are.  Pretty soon whatever is going on will come to the light.  NOTHING STAYS IN THE DARK BELIEVE ME. so just be patient and dont call him cuz that will annoy him after awhile and conversations will be allot shorter more often. so give him his little space and let him come to you. And if dosent come you know what u gotta do. but dont give in and call him again because honestly love is like a Game and if you call him YOU LOST HE WON and then he got the upper ground.  you'll be fine girl just keep urself occupied and less worried you'll be fine.

For me, this is one of the movie i will never set my eyes on. It really sadens me to see hoollywood make money out of this great American Disaster. I dont think it is a good movie and i certainly believe that Americans are not ready for such a movie like this.

Its not that its too early... its just that i don't think people want to see something that it true and makes them sad. And the government hasnt even released the full report about flight 93. Some of it is going to be written by hollywood writers. We don't even know how it happened. And noone was even on that flighy anyway. Did anyone besides me happen to nitotce no airplane parts were found... or even dead bodies. \n\nhttp://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-8260059923762628848&q=loose+change&pl=true\n\nView that video.

First of all I would know my facts,\nLike trying to become legalized.\nOr I wouldn't cross over the borders just to have my child become legal, and me still be Illegal, their is no way I could take that chance.\n\nIf the child is a legal citizens then the state will own him/her. He/She would probably be place into a foster home.


All my life, I've ALWAYS thought that it was kind of homosexual for a man to wear sandals because it is VERY expectant for a female to wear sandals and open-toed shoes.

Acceptable at the shore. Otherwise gay looking but not necessarily gay.


According to my own statistacal analysis of the Holy Bible, there are 76 references that relate to "whoredom", for example:\n\n17 references to 'whore' or 'whores'\n5 references to 'whoremonger' or 'whoremongers'\n54 references to 'whoredom' or 'whoredoms'\n\nSource: The Project Gutenberg Etext of The King James Bible

"the great whore that sitteth upon many waters: with whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication." (Rev. 17:1-2 KJV)\nSounds like a party to me!


i just put somthing lik that in about 5 minutes ago but its an emrgyncy!!! facts about chemical weathering!..... got any facts?


I would do practice problems that require you to use them.  Even if you don't work out the problem all the way, understanding what formulas to use in each context is way more important than just knowing the formulas.  Flashcards are a quick and easy way too, just not quite as helpful in my opinion in the long run.  \n\nGood luck on the test.  I took a few years ago.  Just stay relaxed and don't panic.  They won't give you anything you haven't seen before, just take a deep breath and think about the possibilities for methods to solve a problem if you get stuck.  Especially on the free response, anything is better than nothing.  Give it your best, if you do that, than you can't do any better.


recently got married...am so bored at home all the time..i feel useless...while all my friends are being promoted this greencard is getting on my nerves..so if anyone has/had this experience please share...i plan to go to college..i think that volunteer work would be great..but i need to know the average waiting period for my greencard interview..i already got fingerprinted...Thank you

My husband is in the same situation as you.   He is still waiting for his interview  and has been fingerprinted.   He has not even gotten his work permit yet.  He is bored also sitting  at home.   I tell him that it is just a process and soon you will get it.  You can go online to www.USCIS.gov to check the status of your case by the receipt number.


mine is Empire Records, with That Thing You Do right behind it

I love "That Thing You Do", great movie, Tom Everett Scott was great as Guy, loved Liv Tyler too. It was such "American dream" story line, small town local band makes good, you know? My favorite line is Guy -- "I led you here, for I am Spartacus," then probably Faye telling Jimmy off "I wasted a thousand kisses on you and shame on me for kissing you with my eyes closed so tightly", paraphrasing here, I think that's close to the actual line :)


It says in my guide that you write all the publication info for the first note, but then when it is the same source you just write something like 2. Hillard, 95. (Meaning from the book by Hillard, page 95.) But if there is no author, and the website is written by a company or government agency, how do I write the footnote?

You would cite the company or govt agency as the author, and proceed accordingly.


Multiply it out: (x + 3y)^2 = x^2 + 6xy + 9y^2 = 4 implies (x^2)/4 + y^2/(4/9) + 6xy = 1.\nA well aligned ellipse has the equation ax^2 + by^2 = 1, \nequivalent to the matrix equation [x, y][1/a, 0; 0, 1/b][x; y] = 1. If we replace the scaled standard axes by a set of axes rotated by r, we get [x, y][(1/a)cos(r), (1/b)sin(r); -(1/a)sin(r), (1/b)cos(r)][x; y] \n= (cos(r)/a)x^2 + (cos(r)/b)*y^2 + sin(r)(1/a - 1/b)xy = 1. Thus, the graph of your equation is an ellipse rotated by r.


I know very little about puters. What I do know is the basics. Could anyone tell me what I need to know to delete the cookies from my puter? There's ALOT of things I do'nt know. SORRY! Any input I can get would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks!

Assuming you are using Windows XP.\nOpen internet explorer to your home page.\n\nLook at the very top and click on "Tools" and then click on "Internet options" in the drop down menu. Then click on the "General" tab if it isnt already the first page you see in the menu box.\n\nYou will see where it says under temporary internet files--"delete cookies" and "delete files".\n\nYou want to do both--when the box pops up and asks if your sure--say yes.\nThe "delete files" clears your PC of all temprary internet files you pick up each time you surf. They should be deleted each week to keep your PC running smoothly.\n\nThe next one down is history--clear this out to and set it to how many days you want your pc to keep your history. I have mine to automatically clear every 2 days.


Anyone know of a way to change MSN to open firefox when you click on a link...lets say (the unread mail button) OTHER THAN downloading MSN Plus and than downloading some plugin for that.....i tried that and it screwed up my computer....so im looking for a different way

Try setting Firefox as your default browser...that way no matter what link you click on anywhere it should open up in Firefox.   To set it as the default browser click on Tools on the toolbar then options, then on the general tab you'll see default browser. Just hit check now and if it isn't alreay set  go ahead and set it.  Hope this helps.


In an organization, the average - salary - 48K (stdev 24K, variance 58),avg education - 4 yrs(stdev 1.8 variance 3), avg age-39yrs(stdev 11 variance 123), avg experience - 8yrs (stdev 6, variance 42). What can you infer?

You have difficulty framing your questions.


In the past I've always been up front about what I've.As usasul after I tell them, they come up with a lie to get out of the relationship or just don't call anymore.If I don't tell them about what I have I could go to jail for it. So naturally I tell them, besides the fact( I personally feel they have a right to know and have that choice).I mean I didn't ask for what I have, but it shouldn't be held against me either. I've had boyfriends in the past, but they turned out to be users or cheaters. I do have two kids and they are a blessing from God. No, they don't have it. But to be rejected for being honest is not fair and it hurts alot. Now I'm getting to the point to where I might as well just go to work and go home to stay. Or tell the men that comes in my life that I'm gay. Just to keep from getting hurt. Yes, I've tried talking to someone like me, but of course his ex comes back in his life.

To be fair to the other person, I would tell them as soon as possible so that you are not left wondering what might happen if you start to develop something and it becomes more and more difficult to tell the other person the more involved you get.\n\nEVERYONE deserves to be loved for who they are, and the fact you have a disease doesn't change that. You are a person, not a label - there are people out there who will love you for your personality and who you are, above and beyond the illness. You may well be surprised how compassionate and open-minded people can be.\n\nAnd to add to what Kuraig put up earlier - yes, ok, some people might consider someone who falls in love with a person with a serious disease as being "not in their right mind".\n\nI would consider the person who can see past someones physical health as being the one who deserves your love and affection. Don't give up.


Out of the elite forces, which would be easier for an average joe, not too smart but potentially fit, to get into. Army Rangers or Marine Special Forces?

I'd say Marine Special Forces would be harder.  I was an active duty Marine and trained with Army Rangers.  Rangers and your average infantry Marine seemed to be about equal.  The rest of the Army were no more than glorified boy scouts with guns...all equally lost.  I'm not trying to be all "Marines are better" but I had an Army SSgt who'd been in for 12 years ask me (I was a Corporal in charge of a squad of Marines) how to set up basic maneuvers.  \n\nNow...more on the point of Marine Special Forces.  I had a 1st Sgt who was Force Recon for 16 years and he was the baddest of the bad.  He was a great guy, but his abilities were scary.  He was an expert shot, knew all kinds of martial arts, and could PT all day.  I'd seen endocs (tests to get into snipers or special forces) for Marines...they ran those guys in the rain all night long.  They ran and did exercises for about 16 hours straight.  I'll shut up, but email me if you want more stories.

How did you meet them and why do you consider them so.do you tell them all your secrets?\nshare your story.

I met a friend and I consider her as my bestfriend, during my hi-school days..She was my classmate only for 1 year, then we parted ways as my family moved to our province and her family too, our place seems like A-Z, on the first few months we had communications then it fades away..after 22 years, I was happily married w/ 2 kids and working abroad and 1 day I was terrribly surprised when I received an email from her..and she said that she never gave up on looking for me though I did..We were very happy then..her family still remembers me and my family as well..I'd like to see her very soon when I got my vacation, we've got so  many things to talk about..I love her, she is my very best friend.


In what ways in their ideas differ the most, specially in the view of law?

Karl Marx ideas come from Historic Materialism, and dialectic, where the destiny of Humanity is already written, Emile Durkheim gave more chance to the free will of society to have an impact.


As 1. the correct people to whom to send a press release on health and lifestyle seminars

Check out writersweekly.com and worldwidefreelance.com. They maintain lists (not all I'm sure...but a bunch) of those that accept outside articles (not all do).


Before answering,let me tell you this. I was talking to a friend who's from a country where it's the normality. And I asked her why it was like this.She went on to tell me that the man can have 4 wives.One cooks,one watches the kids,one cleans and works on the farm,and one works outside the home with the husband.

Ask they how they would feel if the Western World said "yes" but it had to apply both ways?\n\nI suspect that might not be as acceptable :-)\n\nBasically folks should follow their own paths - most versions of polygamy that I have seen described are one-way both in gender and in the purpose of it (the 4 wives description above is quite telling).


This is the first episode that I have ever missed and didn't get on videotape!

THE REAL PAUL ANKA\nLorelai has a craaaazy dream. Paul Anka the dog and Paul Anka the man meet on the cosmic thoroughfare and are transformed into one. Rory is still passive-aggressively thwarting Logan's attempts to get on with their relationship. He accuses her of intentionally embarrassing him, which maybe she is, and he goes off on one of his lame Life and Death trips with a dramatic "I'll see you." To make herself feel better, she runs away to Philly, where...Luke is finding that his trip with April's math team is more a lesson in chemistry: April likes an actual boy. He takes her to meet Jess at his new bookstore, where worlds collide and she also meets Rory, who has come there to confuse Jess even further than he already is. Speaking of April, Emily speaks out for us all when she chastises Lorelai for not insisting on getting to know April. And in a gorgeous, thirty-second closing scene, Lorelai unleashes all her pent-up wedding angst on Lane's ugly bridal gown \n(by dumping her cup of coffee on it).


I'm thinking about getting myself a haircut...

Julia Roberts, she never does anything really bad to her hair for movies, she just leaves it her hair and it is really nice and healthy looking, if you want to get a certain cut though, Jennifer Aniston always has neat and trendy cuts.

MVP stands for Most valuble player. But if the team didn't even make the playoff's, what value has he been to that team for that season? There has been times in the past where a player from a team that didn't make the playoffs has been considered for MVP.

Maybe they've been "considered" for MVP, never will they be awarded the trophy. The only reason they'll consider a player from a non-playoff contending team is they'll look at most likely, the last half of the season, and check out that players superior stats, versus how his team did in that span. A team can lose the first 40 games of the season, then turn around and win the last 40 games.... when they won the last 40 they could've had a player single-handedly boost them into an "almost" playoff spot. Maybe the player's averaged 40 pts, 12 rebounds, 10 assists...(extreme example). He was able to bring his crappy team into the NBA spotlight by going on a 2nd half season tear. But for now, don't get a headache, a VERY extreme circumstance would have to happen before a player from a crappy team gets awarded the MVP. And it won't happen.


hi there. All the guys i meet are the same, no car, miserable, and usually have alcohol probs. Where can I go to meet nice guys, who are intelligent, good to chat with, and can have a laugh with? Bars seem to be full of men interested in one thing, so WHERE do these intelligent men hang out????????\n  Sense of humour and being spontaneous is a must.\n  Am I being unrealistic??

No, I think you are being realistic.  I think intelligent men probably hang out at bars and stuff too, but they probably aren't as brash and stand out like the others.  They are probably more low-keyed.  One way of possibly meeting some is thru your friends and family.  Hopefully, they would be a good judge of character for you.

Where's your evidence. No rings. 3rd in scoring. Scoring is the object of Basketball. Just because he average over 30. A lot of players have, not many over 35. 1 over 81 in game. 55 in one half. Are you guys smoking crack? Lebron is about as good as Dominique Wilkens case closed. If Kobe didn't play with Shaq he would have been scoring like this all along. If you watched his old games he wasn't aloud to. And I love Jordan but if you guys think Jordan's scoring average would have been as high playing with Shaq or Chamberlin you guys are smoking crack.

I have to agree with you all the way. Lebron isnt even close to kobe. Kobe might end up getting 5 rings. Lebron might end up with 0 or 1. Kobe is the most talented. He has better passes but the only problem is that he has no1 to pass too. Also when you're that good you want to shoot a lot. He wins games single handedly for his team. WHen Kobes career is over he should be considered the best that ever played th game. Kobe MVP this seasonand I'm all the way for lakers, even though i live in MI i hate pistons and lakers are ma n*****

We currently live in WV and are moving to Texas. So either place would work. He wants to talk to a general and a scab(what is a scab, and where he learned this I have no clue because I know nothing about the army, so I NEVER talk about it). I usually try to do these kinda things for him but I don't want to tell him that it will happen until I know it is allowed and possible. I guess this is the right category.

First of all, it's adorable that your son wants to "See army trucks"  He sounds like a cool kid and a badass.\n\nSecond, the link in the post above me is a good source of Military bases and their locations; but it isnt all you need to know.  The kind of trucks your son is talking about are called M-35s, M-900s, M-1078/83's and Humvees and they are NOT at every military base.  I would hate for you guys to travel all the way to a base to find that they dont have prime movers.  So make sure you call ahead and ask for those trucks.\n\nAs far as talking to a General, that's pretty unlikely.  Generals are very rare and very busy.  I couldnt talk to a General if I wanted to.\nBut if you need help with the truck issue I'd be happy to help any way that I can.

No, it's not true. You'll destroy your charger. \nAlkaline batteries are not designed to be charged.


I could have it every day twice a day while once a month is good enough for him (if im lucky)!  We are only 32 years old for goodness sake.

Sweety, I have had this same problem.  I once told my husband a story about a woman who ate an entire chocolate cake and then someone offered her a piece of cake and she refused because she was so full.  But then one day she hadn't had any cake for weeks and someone offered her a piece and even though it wasn't her favorite flavor she took it anyway because she hadn't had any cake for so long.  My husband seemed to understand that I was talking about getting enough sex or the alternative- cheating (which I would never do but there's no reason not to keep him on his toes, right) and now whenever I think it's been too long, I just tell him I'm really hungry for chocolate cake and he usually gets the point.  Best wishes

what should be taught at primary and secondary levels on the issue of hiv/aids

How aids spreads and how the spreading of it can be prevented. This should be taught.\nAlso, what aids is, how it affects the human life. If possible, bringing volunteer patients into the classroom to share their own experiences would probably be effective. I'm not exactly sure about "primary level", though. Probably this should begin at grade 5 or so.


There are two sides: one shiney, one not.  Wouldn't shinier side facing the food reflect and retain heat better?

There might be some very slight difference in the albedo between the 'shiny' and 'dull' sides of the foil, but there's probably more variation in your oven temperature than there would be a difference between which side of the foil you use.\n\nThe shiny side is created when the roll of aluminum foil is spun off the rollers in the packaging plant, and the side against the roller gets burnished as it reels out.  Both sides are very nearly equal in their heat reflection abilities, and so you can use either side without fear that the other side may have 'worked better'.

I know I should know this because I am a fan of Duct Tape (go to http://360.yahoo.com/ducttaperocker for proof) But I dont know who.  Or when.  Or how or anything historical about it.  HELP ME!!

The Great Idea Finder credits Johnson and Johnson Co. with inventing duct tape in 1942. (see link below)\n\nRichard Drew invented adhesive tape (masking tape). \n\n"Adhesive tape (specifically masking tape) was invented in the 1920's by Richard Drew of Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing, Co. (3M). Duct tape (the WWII military version) was first created and manufactured in 1942 (approximate date) by the Johnson and Johnson Permacel Division. Its closest predecessor was medical tape."

How long does it take and how much is it. Can I keep my german citizenship as well? Is dual citizenship allowed in the U.S?

Although U.S. statutes are silent on dual citizenship, U.S. courts have ruled that there's no law prohibiting it. It is a matter of policy not to encourage dual citizenship even though U.S. recognises it.\n\nWhen you are naturalised as a U.S. citizen, the U.S. considers that you have renounced all other nationality or subjecthood.

I have been datin this guy ive known since the 5th grade...Weve dated twice b4 but weve only been dating for a week now but everytime i tell him to hold on cause i got a beep while we are on the phone he gets an attitude or accuses me of talking to another guy...Which I do have guy friends but I feel like he dont trust me...What Should I do???? I am not gonna give up my guy friends just because he doesnt trust me...Am I in the Wrong For That????

No you're not wrong. Trust is a big part of the relationship. He does not trust you because he is insecure with himself. I would not leave my male friends either. I bet he has female friends.


this is serious, i have two friends who smoke pot and do other drugs. How do i get them to stop w/out them getting mad at me 4 telling on them?\n                                   \n                             -rly worried

Sorry hon, but this is a case that you can't do much with. THey are messing with stuff that will get them in trouble and messup their entire lives. You may just have to decide that you need new friends, before they bring you down too.\n\nI had a friend in hs like that, SHe was always messing with older guys and trying to get me too. I finally had to tell her that I couldn't hang out with her if she wsa doing those things. It really hurt, because she choose the drugs and the boys over our friendship, but I am glad I did it. \n\nShe has like four kids with four guys and is always high on meth. I am glad that my life isn't like that. But I am really sad when I see her like that.\n\nBottom line, you have to do what is best for you, your pot-head friends will drag you down.

Many muslim country and other world are facing this challange.

As far as I understand it, it is against their own religion.  Therefore they are being inconsistent and hypocritical.  Mohammed was a peaceful leader and yet they blasphemed his name themselves by rising up in such a violent way to 'protect' his good name during the incident of the cartoons.  What of the fact that they have slandered the Christian icon Jesus?  Yet, they don't expect Christians to rise up against them do they?  \nOr is that what they want?  Another holy war to make life interesting?  To lose their loved ones in bitter rage in the name of religions that have both preached peace and love (in spite of admitting only one God)?\nIf it were a matter of severe oppression and humiliation it would be understandable, but still not justified in the eyes of their own religion.  But it is not.  Muslims are accepted worldwide nowadays due to religious tolerance.  They are making THEMSELVES feared and hated through their own actions.  Should others rise up against their religion in the name of their own (as of old) and try to dominate them in the name of THEIR one true God?  Perhaps this would gain a grudging respect from Muslims and matters might calm down.


I have two chalazion’s on my right eyelid and I have been treated with steroid injections. Unfortunately, the size of chalazion has not decreased and the size is compressing my eye, and blurring my vision.

A chalazion, also known as a Meibomian gland lipogranuloma, is a cyst in the eyelid that is caused by inflammation of the meibomian gland, usually on the upper eyelid. Chalazions differ from hordeolums in that they are usually painless apart from the tenderness caused when they swell up. A chalazion may eventually disappear on its own after a few months, though more often than not, some treatment is necessary.\n\nSigns and symptoms\nPainful swelling on the eyelid \nEyelid tenderness \nSensitivity to light \nIncreased tearing \n\nTreatment\n\nThe primary treatment is application of warm compresses for 10 - 20 minutes at least 4 times a day. This may soften the hardened oils blocking the duct and promote drainage and healing.\n\nTopical antibiotic eye drops or ointment (eg chloramphenicol or fusidic acid) are sometimes used for the initial acute infection, but are otherwise of little value in treating a chalazion. Chalazia will often disappear without further treatment within a month or so.\n\nIf they continue to enlarge or fail to settle within a few months, they may be surgically removed using local anesthesia. This is usually done from underneath the eyelid to avoid a scar on the skin. Rarely chalazia may reoccur and these will be biopsied to help rule out tumors.\n\n\nComplications\n\nA large chalazion can cause astigmatism due to pressure on the cornea. This will resolve with resolution of the chalazion.\n\n\nPrevention\n\nProper cleansing of the eyelid may prevent recurrences in people prone to chalazia. Cleaning the eyelash area with diluted baby shampoo will help reduce clogging of the ducts.


I work with a radio station in the Caribbean selling advertising to businesses. How can I boost my sales by a 1000% and stand out from all the other sales people in the market place?

You will probably get lots of different answers, but my opinion on what makes a good sales person is this:\n\n1) product knowledge - yours and your competitors! You have to know how to position your product and respond to any objections to be able to effectively offer your product as a solution to meet the buyers need.\n\n2) develop a relationship built upon trust, honesty, integrity - your competitor may do the "hard sell" but developing an honest relationship will lead to word of mouth referrals and customers for life! Get to know the individual, their office staff (gate keepers), their business, their competition, their market space so that you can position your product to completely meet their needs.\n\n3) once you have developed a relationship and you know your product is the right solution, ask for the business. Customers expect it and if you have responded to any objections, developed an honest relationship, then you should be in a nice position to close the deal.\n\n4) for customer that provide on-going sales - thank them for the business. Let me know how important they are and that you value them as a customer. Ask them to recommend your product to colleagues.\n\nGood luck!


"You can start a war, but it won't be you who finishes it," said General Yahya Rahim Safavi, the head of Iran's Revolutionary Guards, and who ranks among the regime's most powerful figures.

I think its a bold assumtion made by a country who isnt considering the fullness of our power. \n\nnot that we've exibited it. we're like a lame duck or a clumsy prom date. pretended to be united as a nation and fight a war in iraq and stand behind out souldiers. if i had to base our muscle on this whole endevor, and the solidity of our nation, id have to admit we're looking more and more like sitting ducks.\n\nwe're too busy hating our goverment, and killing eachother to unite to fight if someone attacked the nation. We lost over 2000 lives when the towers fell,and for a few months everyone was united over stopping terroism bar no cost. where are those people now? gripe'n about every damn move the war takes, and decision the president makes. oo war is bad, wah wah cry cry.\n\nwe're a huge cluster f**k waiting to be torn apart. \n\nIn all honesty thats my opinion. i havent heard of this nation standing together united over a war in over 60 years. This is what happens when hippies take over. love and peace and getting our asses kicked by N korea and china and iran. who have all not only threatened our interests but DARED us to intervine.\n\npolitics are politics. People die, wars are fought, things are gained and lost. and people are united, or else they fall. damnit people. we shoud all be building fall out shelters. if its not iran its the next country.

need to nkow what a thermistor an controlling incubator does.

thermistor is a type of resistor used to measure temperature changes, relying on the change in its resistance with changing temperature. Thermistor is a portmanteau of the words thermal and resistor.\n\nIf we assume that the relationship between resistance and temperature is linear (i.e. we make a first-order approximation), then we can say that:\n\nΔR = kΔT \nwhere\n\nΔR = change in resistance \nΔT = change in temperature \nk = first-order temperature coefficient of resistance \nThermistors can be classified into two types depending on the sign of k. If k is positive, the resistance increases with increasing temperature, and the device is called a positive temperature coefficient (PTC) thermistor, posistor or sensistor. If k is negative, the resistance decreases with increasing temperature, and the device is called a negative temperature coefficient (NTC) thermistor. Resistors that are not thermistors are designed to have the smallest possible k, so that their resistance remains almost constant over a wide temperature range.


well i am in CA and i usually go to church,  i usually do on saturday any way because i am a seventh day adventis so i go sat and then sunday as well, then my daughter and i paint easter eggs, she is 14 but still loves to do the painting and the hiding eggs, and she loves getting baskets full of easter candy mostly sour stuff now a choco bunny and some other candy and one toy or now that she is 14 money or a video or cd or dvd then she watches it or listens to music while i make lunch.

Absolutely not. The internet is controlled by humans, it doesn't expand on its own. It doesn't have the ability to expand on its own and it never will have the ability to learn anything. It doesn't learn. Thats like filling a pitcher with jello and saying, "Look it's a living being. It has a structure, it holds what i put into it and it wiggles when i touch it!!"


If I did it (a white man) I would have been raped in jail by now?

People in positions of power, regardless of race, often receive a lot of leeway in legal matters that would land most of the common people in jail. Consider Ted Kennedy (got away with manslaughter), the head honchos at Enron (getting off pretty light compared to all the people whose retirements have been ruined), O.J. Simpson and Robert Blake (they should team up to catch the "real killers") and the list goes on...

Sure he deserves it, but that would make Cheney the president and he could then run as an incumbant in '08.  It wouldn't send much of a message as far as presidential integrity is concerned since Cheney is at least as dirty as Bush (if not more).  Do you think it's worth it?

You’re quite right about the grounds for impeachment.  Here is a more complete list of impeachable offenses for which Bush is guilty of:\n\nBush lied to Congress and the American public about the reasons for invading Iraq, conducted illegal wiretaps of American citizens, violated International Law by invading a sovereign country for illegal purposes, violated the Geneva Convention by torturing prisoners of war, held prisoners without formal charges and without legal representation, used government funds for domestic political propaganda, the Bush team used uniformed military personnel for Republican party political purposes, was negligent in his slow response to help victims of Hurricane Katrina, and shows contempt towards our Constitution and our democratic ideals.\n\nI do believe in proceeding with the impeachment process.  Congressman John Conyers and 29 cosponsors have already introduced a bill to form an impeachment panel.\n\nTrue, Bush is just a Cheney puppet, but since so many people feel this administration has done nothing wrong, impeachment might open the eyes of those die hard supporters who doubt the truth.  Cheney would never be able to win a presidential election.   Cheney’s involvement with Halliburton, his health, avoidance of the draft, and his brash, defiant attitude would never survive the scrutiny of a presidential election.\n\nAs for approval ratings, when the approval rating is pro either side’s candidate the party with the highest approval rating acknowledges those results; when the ratings, which are obtained from the exact same sources are negative toward their party, they claim the results are slanted and corrupt.\n\nFor those who aren’t clear on the grounds for impeachment, please go to the link posted below.

I suffer from headache sevierly,mostly because of eyes.some times without a reason.presently I feel burning of eyes due to dryness.

Another effective means is to use natural apple cider vinegar . Equal parts of natural apple cider vinegar and water should be placed in a small pan on the stove, allowing it to boil slowly. When the fumes begin to rise from the pan, lean your head over it until the fumes are comfortably strong. Inhale for approximately 50 to 80 breaths. This generally alleviates the headache considerably, if not entirely.\n\nMoisten your fingertips with Pure Almond Carrier Oil then add two drops of Lavender Essential Oil. In a circular motion, gently massage your temples, the hollows at the sides of your eyes, behind your ears, and over your neck.


I know the Bible does not mention the word Trinity, but if you read the Bible in Rev 1:8 God says he is the Alpha and the Omega, and in Rev 1:17 Jesus says he is the First and the Last, i am the living one who died.  Look i am alive forever and ever, and than Rev 22:12,13 Jesus is saying he is the Alpha and the Omega the first and the Last the Beginning and the end. so that means Here in the Bible Jesus is both THE GOD and THE SON OF GOD, so he is Both, and the HOLY SPIRIT. Thank you, So what do you think about this.

God is God. Jesus is Jesus and the Spirit is the spirit. how can they be one. its simple maths\n1+1+1=3 not 1. even a child can tell you that.\nIts amazing, the power of words. even learned people become brainwashed and dont see what's so apparent . They start saying 1+1+1=1??????????


im 18 and i have not yet had a male physical, i need one for a job what do they do? and ive heard they give rectal exams for the whole prostate cancer thing, please anwser honestly i want to know wut to expect and use detail thanks

Rectal exam? ... I'm 19, but I haven't had a physical in the past year. I'd hate to get one. I know they will give those to both guys and girls.\n\nFortunately, the rectal exam is not a part of a normal physical. They will only give you one if you have a colon problem.


I want to infect A.thalaiana with a particular plasmid using Agrobacterium but is tDNA necessary or will the Agrobacterium infect the plant without tDNA? And how do I know where, if the plasmid has been inserted?

From my understanding tDNA is important, at very least for tagging but I believe it is also important for the transfer of the intesert into the A. thaliana genome.\n\nYou can still detect the insertion of the transgene because you would usually insert an antibiotic resistance gene with the gene of interest. You can then use this to select for plants that have the gene inserted.\n\nThen, to find out where in the genome the transgene has inserted, you need to map it. There are many techniques for doing this, but if you know the sequence of your gene of interest or the antibiotic resistance gene, you should be able to use fragments of the genes as probes on gene libraries etc etc etc, there are probably also fancy ways you could use genomic to achieve this too.

i assume you're speaking of the giant panda? if so:\n\n\n\nThe giant panda (Ailuropoda melanoleuca "black-and-white cat-foot") is a mammal usually classified in the bear family, Ursidae, native to central and southern China. [1] There is on-going debate as to whether this creature is truly a bear or more related to the raccoon, or even a class of its own, but the majority agree with the giant panda being a bear.\n\nThe panda's main food is bamboo, but they may eat other foods such as honey, eggs and fish. Easily recognizable through its large, distinctive black patches on the eyes, ears and on its rotund body, the giant panda is one of the most endangered animals in the world: an estimated 1,600 pandas live in the wild and some 100 live in captivity, according to a 2004 census. [2]\nContents\n[hide]\n\n    * 1 General information\n    * 2 Natural history\n    * 3 Uses and conservation history\n    * 4 Reproduction\n    * 5 Name\n    * 6 Subspecies\n    * 7 Pandas in zoos\n    * 8 Pandas in popular culture\n    * 9 References\n    * 10 External links\n\n[edit]\n\nGeneral information\nSu Lin, a 5-month old baby giant panda, atop a tree at the San Diego Zoo\nEnlarge\nSu Lin, a 5-month old baby giant panda, atop a tree at the San Diego Zoo\n\nThe giant panda lives in mountainous regions, such as Sichuan and Tibet. Since the latter half of the 20th century, the panda has become an informal national emblem for China, and its image is found on many Chinese gold coins.\n\nDespite being taxonomically a carnivore, the panda has a diet that is overwhelmingly herbivorous. The giant panda eats shoots and leaves, living almost entirely on bamboo. Pandas are also known to eat eggs, the occasional fish, and some insects along with their bamboo diet. These are necessary sources of protein. Some zoos also feed their pandas specially formulated biscuits, fruitsicles or other treats to supplement their bamboo intake. Like other subtropical mammals, the giant panda does not hibernate.\n\nFor many decades the precise taxonomic classification of the panda was under debate as both the giant panda and the distantly related red panda share characteristics of both bears and raccoons. However, genetic testing has revealed that giant pandas are true bears and part of the Ursidae family. Its closest bear relative is the Spectacled Bear of South America. (Disagreement remains about whether or not the red panda belongs in Ursidae; the raccoon family, Procyonidae; or in its own family, Ailuridae.)\n\nGiant pandas are an endangered species, threatened by continued habitat loss and by a very low birthrate, both in the wild and in captivity. About 1,600 are believed to survive in the wild. Poaching is uncommon; killing a panda was punishable in China by death until a 1997 law changed the penalty to 20 years imprisonment.\n\nThe giant panda has an unusual paw, with a "thumb" and five fingers; the "thumb" is actually a modified sesamoid bone. Stephen Jay Gould wrote an essay about this, then used the title The Panda's Thumb for a book of collected essays. The giant panda has a short tail, approximately 15 cm long.\n\nThe giant panda has long been a favourite of the public, at least partly on account of the fact that the species has an appealing baby-like cuteness that makes it seem to resemble a living teddy bear. The fact that it is usually depicted reclining peacefully eating bamboo, as opposed to hunting, also adds to its image of innocence. Though the giant panda is often assumed docile because of their cuteness, they have been known to attack humans, usually assumed to be out of irritation rather than predatory behavior.\n\nGiant pandas can usually live to be 20-30 years old while living in captivity.\n[edit]\n\nNatural history\n\nNo fossils of pandas have been found earlier than a few million years ago. However, DNA analysis of the giant panda compared with other bears shows a very early split from the main bear line

Hello,,\n     I had the same question a year ago...  I have few suggestions if you like that I tried on myself. Why don't you do a career program that will be completed in few months ,, may be 8 and then you can have a job.. you can do medical assistance or office assistance or something that take less than a year ... yo will have a job and become independent.... and when you have a job and are settled then you can go for bachelors online because online classes are cheaper and easier .. you can sit on your bed and do your homework and only spend 2 to 3 hours daily .... This can be best with your job and some companies offer tuition refund .... This is just a suggestion and if you do not like it never mind ...

OK I am ordering a purse from Ebay and i owe 180GBP\nwhat does that mean?\nI thought i owed 327$ US Dollars.\nThe seller is in the United Kingdom\nPlease help and please no mean answers\nthank you to all that answer

Since about 1.8 US Dollars make a UK Pound; 180 GBP (Great Britain Pound) are equal to 327 USD (United States Dollar)... \n\n$327/ 1.8= 181.6\n\nSince your seller is in UK, they probably must have converted the currency from US Dollar to UK Pound for his (seller) convenience. The currency conversion rates vary from time to time (almost daily)... so when you brought the purse, the currency conversion must have come down to $327.\n\nFor more info on current conversion rates and exchange, check out these site:\nhttp://finance.yahoo.com/currency\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exchange_rate

You need to check with the clerks office at the court house.

Not talking about people who strictly hit opposite field vs pull hitters. I know the differences in swing there. \n\nI'm talking about hitters who typically hit to one field then suddenly switch to the other. \n \nTake Barry Bonds, for ex - he's a pull hitter. Yet this season, all 3 of his homeruns are opposite field.\n\nWhat's going on? Is he using all arms and no legs? Swinging late on the ball? \n\nAnd no Bonds comments, pls. just looking for an answer to the question. thanks!

There are several reasons why someone would pull the ball or hit to the opposite field. If a hitter hits to the opposite field, it could be that his timing was off and he was late on the pitch or if the pitch was outside you would get more power by hitting to the opposite field. That is what they mean when they say go with the pitch. \nIf your early on the pitch you will pull it, or if the pitch is inside you will turn on it and take it to the pull field. If someone is injured in the hips or knee's and has a hard time turning their hips or knee's they wont be able to turn on a ball and pull it as well as just to take it to the opposite field and swing with more arms than body.


does god only cross your mind when you NEED something?\n\nor is he there for YOU all the time?\n\ni have MY views, what are YOURS? (please don't "thump")

That is ANOTHER question!)  :-)) For what I have been given, for all that I have, for the very good people who love me, for the incredible, sustaining beauty of the natural world.\n\nSometimes I am not sure to Whom I am praying, but my heart rises, anyway!\n\nThe only serious (the save-my-butt stuff isn't really serious, in my opinion) prayers I say are to ask for knowledge of God's will, and the power to carry it out.\n\nSometimes I toss in a request for strength, and understanding.

I am working on an essay for my AP Government class. We had to first pick 2 presidents in office between the years of 1960 and 2000 and choose 3 examples of why we feel that they were a great president.  I have answered most of the question that were assigned for this essay but am having trouble answereing the above question. Any help can give me would be greatly appreciated.

Hasn't changed one bit. \nThe President only makes war with the approval of Congress. In the President's role as Commander in Chief he would act to protect the country and its interests in times of emergency.\nThis does not give him the authority to ignore the Constitution he takes an oath to defend and protect. Wiretaps still need the judicial branch.\nTechnology in terms of nukes, rockets and airplanes is the biggest change.

Have had MANY issues in the last couple of weeks with windows ME. Mainly IE...Found this thing on the zone alarm program approval page. Searched it out and it is  some kind of spyware. When ever I go online, I have to go into the internet options and reset the settings, on the connections tab. Or I get the white page of death. It gives me the cannot find server/DNS error message. Is this thing causing this? Can't really find anything of value about it on the net...

for estimating of wave hight in a pond with the water depth of less than 30 cm (in paddyfield),which formula or method can be used for determining of wave hight

You could place a vertical rod in the pond (on a stand or stuck in the mud?) and start the experiment when the rod is dry.  After you create the wave and the surface returns to rest, measure the height of the wave on the rod.  This will be the maximum height of the waves at the given point and will depend on the location of the disturbance (radiates outwards like a bullseye?).  Also, there should be nothing near the rod to magnify the wave (including shore effect or irregular bottom?).  Applying chalk to the rod (especially blue chalk?) may make the wetted height more visible and resist drying too fast.  Including a scale on the rod may allow you to read the wetted height above calm surface easier, especially using binoculars.  The trough should approximately equal the wave height.  Good luck.


My boss informed another employee that he was requring me to seek mental counseling in order to keep my job. Is my employer able to make me seek help and is it legal for my employer to disclose this information to other employee's?

I don't know if it is illegal, but it is surely inappropriate.

1 $ = Rs 42.66 today and the value changes the next day. how is this value determined?

Its pure supply and demand... or at least in principle. If all countries had an open economy, where their currencies where in a floating rate, instead of a fixed rate, supply and demand for that currency would determine its price. Lets say, mexican peso vs dollar. If today the exchange rate is $11.09 pesos for dollar and in the course of the day, international investors come and inyect more dollars to the mexican economy (stock market, funds, etc.), and that is greater than the amount of dollars that go out of the country, then people are demanding more pesos than dollars in that specific day. To put your money on mexican market, you have to do it in pesos, so what happens to your dollars? They are transformed to pesos... making the demand for peso higher than that for dollar. Exchange rate should go down... say $11.01. What determines this? Many factors. The stock market in Mexico has been booming for 2 years, so in 2005, the peso aprreciated against the dollar by almost 7%. But with the Feds moving intreset rates up, money is going to the US since it is less risky and the rates are going up, while in México rates are going down. So this year, dollar has gained value against the peso. \nSystematic error determines where the money goes, and who ever gets more of it would have its currency in better value.


probably going to be able to stay.If this happens how will your opinion of them change?

my opinion will not change.  This is AMERICA -- why can't we open our arms/hearts/states/cities/neighborhoods, and allow them to have the same basic HUMAN rights that everyone has/wants, here in this country..... :::climbing off my soapbox:::


What do the two lines signify? For example, £ for the British pound, $ for the US Dollar. And if the "L" is for Latin "Librum", what does the "S" stand for?

i'm not sure how accurate this is but apparently the dollar ($) symbol originally started off as a letter "U" superimposed onto a letter "S" to indicate that the currency was from the US and over time the bottom of the U was dropped off as the dollar was adopted by other countries so it was just left as an S with 2 vertical lines through it.\ni'm not too sure about the other currency symbols though.


Okay I don't really know what I'm trying to ask I guess I'm trying to get opinions.  Okay see I have really bad trust issues, I have talked to my boyfriend about them and he is understanding of my problem.  But it seems I still get bothered by things.  I've never had anything set in stone to make me believe he would be unfaithful, so I really don't have a reason.  It just seems that him and I spend so much time together and talk so much on the phone that when we don't do those things it seems out of the ordinary.  I kind of feel that I need to get over these things because we are talking about moving in together and I just told him last night that I feel we really need to think about it because I would hate to think it goes bad and then one of us is screwed.  It just seems that when he gets mad he will go out with his friends and not call me until he is drunk and doesn't really care about what I have to say, and also he just won't call sometimes, because of work.  I know I am insecure.

First of all, he has to earn your trust.  His actions, especially when he gets mad at, appear to be what erodes that trust.  I think you two need to talk about how you handle such things as fights and disagreements before you start living together.  Every couple has to define what is acceptable and what isn't.  I think if you can find trust during the times when he is mad then the rest will follow.


I had this problem. i can suggest several things that should help. i agree that meditation may help.also taking up Tai Chi could help as well. This will help ease the symptoms andstop you worrying about it. As the dream itself can't bother you but worrying about it can. There is something in your life that is causing you anxiety, possibly you feel as though you are not in control of your life in some way. Perhaps you have a dominant or abusive patner or you feel that you are not doing what you should be doing with your life. Sort this out and the dream will go. Avoid scary movies, books and computer games befor sleeping. Sleep with fesh air in the room and avoid your head getting to hot. Read something calming or inspiring before you go to sleep or listen to peaceful music. Make your bedrom a haven of peace and harmony. Try new bedding, a clear out of all junk. Unplug phones and electrical equipment and have soothing colours. Do not store anything under your bed or have a mirror above or opposite it. Don't have posters on the walls unless they are harmonious. Yourdream shows that you are troubled in some way and probably not admitting it. Only you know what is really going on in your ife. I wish you well.

I mean, so many marriages seem to be ending in divorce, and other couples decide not to marry at all.  Do people take their vows seriously any more?  Is there any point to marriage these days?\n\nI am married with 2 kids, by the way, and happy.  I know my reasons, I would like to hear others' thoughts.

I'm married, and I take the vows I made to my hubby completely serious, along with my marriage. We may not have a whole lot, but it's my own little world, and I wouldn't change it for anything. I honestly couldn't imagine my life without him in it...it just doesn't seem right. My reasons for marriage was because I knew I wanted him for the rest of my life. Of course, we didn't HAVE to get married, but I see it as a way of showing the ultimate act of love towards another. What other way is there besides devoting your life with them to share in every single aspect? \nAs far as why divorce happens more in today's times, I think people just take it as an easy way out. Marriages are not easy to maintain, and when tuff situations arise, divorce provides an easy access to just start over. It's sad that marriages are not taken seriously, and that people are starting to just see it as a signed piece of paper, rather than all that it resembles. Of course, there are always exceptions. Some divorces occur for good reasons, like abuse or constant adultery. \nReally good question. Best of luck to you in life!

i am seriously fighting with my life here, i am in an abusive relationship tried the shelters homeless shelters, domestic violence shelters he cuts me ties me up beats me i bleed alot i have bruises all over my body i have been with him for 3 years and cant take it no more i have no family grew up in foster care i have no where to go, can someone help me PLEASE?...BECFORE I JUST COMMIT SUICIDE

yes, you will be okay.\n\nBUT it's time to make some serious changes in your life... no more of the same old stuff you've been doing.  MAKE it work.\n\n- a domestic violence hotline is the best place to work through all your specific options.  800-799-7233 (National), or go to http://www.feminist.org/911/crisis.html to find something local for you.\n\n- get away from this guy for good.  two days from now you should have a restraining/protection order against this guy which keeps him at least 500 feet away.  once that's in place, if he finds you immediately take out your cell phone and dial 911, scream if you need to.  don't tell him any of this, just do it.  just think to yourself "i've had enough, that's it, i'm done with him forever, and i don't need any explanations or apologies".  no exceptions.\n\n- it sounds like you need to work on some stuff inside yourself also... and that's a good thing.  nobody's perfect, and don't worry too much about right or wrong... but it sounds like it would be good for you to get a new lifestyle that "works" better for you.  don't just escape, ESCAPE!\n\n- if you need something drastic to change your life, maybe the peace corps or something very involved and out of the country would give you a chance to figure out what you want out of life.\n\nyou have a right to be happy - don't let some miserable prick take that away from you.\n\nyour "i found myself" post in your 360 page is the right way of thinking.  stick to it.  don't take the pom back

I stopped using wikipedia on my papers after a professor made a comment that wikipedia, while being full of useful information, can not be considered reliable information, because of the variance of its authors and its constantly changing nature.  It is an organic work, written by whoever wants to write, policed by a community of people from many different fields.  Do you think it is appropriate for use in academic writing?

I am almost always disappointed when Wikipedia is used by my students as a source in an academic paper, and I generally warn my students against using it.  I agree with the person above who wrote that wiki articles often include basic bibliographies that can lead students to more useful sources, but in many cases, the information to be found on Wikipedia is less than satisfying.\n\nFor example, one student of mine used the wiki entry on "cargo cults," and the information he found there was misleading, and certainly not reflective of current scholarship on the subject.  Because Wikipedia is an online source that is updated often, my student thought that the information it contained would be "cutting edge."  This was a bad assumption to make.  We ended up using it in class discussion as an instructive example of the problems with Wikipedia.\n\nAcademia runs on the principle of peer review.  This means that everything a scholar attempts to publish is reviewed for integrity and quality by recognized reviewers with demonstrated expertise in the field.  The basic problem with Wikipedia is the absence of a uniform, reliable, standardized peer review process.  In other words, the "policing" is insufficient, because Wikipedia articles are not reviewed by recognized experts in the fields in question. \n\nOne final note:\nWhy don't more scholars contribute to Wikipedia themselves and make it a better site?  Well, in some cases they actually do, for the sake of students who might consult the site, but in most cases, they don't, because it wouldn't "count" as a valid publication effort, because it's not a standard, peer-reviewed endeavor!\n\n(Sorry for the length of this response, but I thought it was an important question that deserved a thoughtful reply.)

Why does it seem so easy for illegal immigrants to abuse the system and yet for people who try to migrate via proper legal channels it's so long and difficult?

Because the Republicans and the Corporations WANT them to come over here, so they can treat them like crap and pay them slave wages.  Otherwise it would have been stopped years ago.  Of course, the republicans are only crapping on themselves when the whole damn government collapses over everybody having to spend all their tax money on people who pay no taxes (aka illegals).

Regarding the Cubs, and the amount of talent in their minors league systems, what would you say would or could be a best guess approximate time to bring some of them up to the majors?

Minor league players are as good if not in some cases better than major league players. The problem is pressure. Many guys stay in the minors because everytime they are brought up, they freek out, can't handle it and do poorly. So when they are ready is the best answer. To be determined.


1.0 M NaH2PO4 and 1.0 M Na2HPO4 are in a 10.0 L container. the pH is 7.21. What is the pH if .50 mol NaOH is added, assuming no change in volume?

Well first of all you have not given us all the information to be able to answer this buffer question.  We need to know the Ka (6.2x10-8)of the acid.  But the steps to perform the task.  Calculate how much of the acid is neutralized by the addition of the base.  Recalculate the equilibrium concentration of both the acid and base with the new acid value.  using Ka=[H+][Na2HPO4]/[NaH2PO4] solve for H+ and finally use pH=-log[H+].  Your final answer..pH=7.25


They should give up and start watching the beutiful game. start with the world cup this june!!!

The U.S. is such a huge country that we're completely content to compete against each other.  California is practically a different country from Texas.  There's plenty of rivalry there.\n\nI'm a World Cup fan, but there is simply no way you can expect Americans to enjoy soccer the way it's enjoyed everywhere else.  Many, many, many have tried and failed.  It's just not going to happen... especially now that television has changed how we enjoy sports.  American football, baseball, basketball: these all have built-in spots to break away for commercials.  Soccer doesn't.  That hurts its chances of gaining significant telelvision time here in the States.

Meaning, what do you think of "mixing" different species?\nWe're doing a debate next week, so any thoughts on pro's & con's would be welcome.

i think mixing different species have both advantages n disadvantages .some of the Advantages and Disadvantages of Transgenic Crops?\nThe use of transgenic crops has been an issue for many years. Many concerns have been raised and these generally fall into two categories: \n\n\nA concern about what affect genetically modified material could have on human health. For example, transgenic crops have been suggested to cause allergies in some people, although it is uncertain whether transgenic crops are the source of this reaction3. Furthermore the antibiotic resistance genes placed in these crops has been suggested to cause resistance to antibiotics leading to super bugs that cannot be killed with antibiotic treatments3. The idea of a population being uncomfortable with ingesting DNA that originated from another source, such as a virus or bacteria, must also be considered when thinking about producing transgenic crops. However, to date, there is no evidence of the DNA from transgenic crops being any different from the DNA ingested from conventional crops. \nA concern about whether transgenic crops cause damage to the natural environment. One example includes pollen from transgenic corn, which has been suggested to kill the Monarch butterfly larvae. It has been shown that hybrid corn expresses a bacterial toxin in its pollen, which is then dispersed over 60 meters by wind. In this range, the corn pollen is deposited on other plants near cornfields where it can be ingested by non-target organisms including the monarch butterfly5. These butterflies have been found to eat less, have a slower growth rate and higher death rate5. A second example is the hybridization of crops with nearby weeds. This could cause these weeds to attain resistance to herbicides or other things that we have been trying to avoid for many years. Genes that provide resistance to viral disease or other traits allowing them to survive in their environment could end up benefiting weed populations around a crop field. This trait could make that population more difficult to control. To date, there has been little evidence to support this theory2. \nOn other side of the coin are the notions that support the use of transgenic crops. The potential benefits of which are quite obvious, including such things as increased yields (to feed a growing population), decreasing the use of pesticides (to save the environment and the cost of pesticides), and the production of novel crops (such as providing crops with increased nutritional value)3. Being able to retrofit any crop to our desires is a powerful concept, especially with the changing climates of today

I've found about 100 different copies of the song "I'm in Heaven" by Jason Nevins ft. Holly James.  Why do they all sound different!?  And how do I know which is the original one?

over the rainbow\nmusic by Harold Arlen and lyrics by Yip Harburg, is one of the most famous songs of the late 1930s.\n\nHundreds of singers have recorded their own versions of "Over the Rainbow", most notably by Patti LaBelle, Melissa Manchester, Frank Sinatra, Willie Nelson, Linda Eder, Johnny Mathis, Jo Stafford, Doris Day, Martina McBride, Ella Fitzgerald, Olivia Newton-John, Aretha Franklin, Ramones, Metallica, Ray Charles, Harry Connick Jr, Sarah Vaughan, Faith Hill, Tony Bennett, and the late Eva Cassidy. Sam Harris performed a winning rendition on the first season of the original Star Search. Barbra Streisand, Eric Clapton, Kylie Minogue, and Garland's daughters Liza Minnelli and Lorna Luft have sung the song in concert. One of the most interesting versions was recorded by the late Hawaiian singer Israel Kamakawiwo'ole whose medley of "Rainbow" and Louis Armstrong's "What a Wonderful World" was featured on the soundtrack of the films Meet Joe Black, Finding Forrester, and 50 First Dates. James Stewart memorably warbled a rendition while carrying a "drunk" Katharine Hepburn in The Philadelphia Story. Even horror legend Vincent Price did a version in the film Dr. Phibes Rises Again.\n\nBritish television comedian Kenny Everett sometimes did comedy segments that included the unique sound of a British police car siren and Everett singing the lyrics, "Behind me!" and "That's where you'll find me!"\n\nThe cover band Me First and the Gimme Gimmes covered the song for their 1999 album Are a Drag, and in the animated series The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy, Grey Delisle sang it as her character, Mandy. Guitarist Joe Satriani occasionally covers the song at his concerts. Guitarist Ritchie Blackmore would perform a few bars of the verse at the beginning of his concerts, when he Rocked the world with his band of Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow, in those years from 1975 to 1983.\n\nIn Stephen Schwartz's musical Wicked, an adaptation of Gregory Maguire's novel, the main character, Elphaba, has a piece of music that plays at important moments in her life, the words of which are "Un-li-mi-ted, my fu-ture -" and this piece is played to the same notes (though not the same lengths) as "Some-where o-ver the rain-bow'. As the Wicked Witch of the West is Elphaba's other name, and because Dorothy and she are literary foils, this provides an ironic subtext to this song. (It also may be noted that by restricting the piece to seven notes, Schwartz prevented MGM from having the right to press legal charges against him.)\n\n\nThe Smashing Pumpkins would often include "Somewhere Over The Rainbow" in the live/jam version of "Silverfuck". This is present on the live concert album Earphoria but on the DVD Vieuphoria it is edited out, because they did not have the rights to the song. "Rainbow" can also be found on the late Ray Charles final album, Genius Loves Company, as a duet with Johnny Mathis.


Well hopefully the hurt was unintentional.  If it is intentional then this person has a serious problem.  We are human and we should want happiness for everyone, but sometimes we cannot provide that for everyone.  So what we need to do is keep ourselves happy, let others be happy and live a fullfilling life staying out of others business unless they ask us for advice or help.

my parents (im 21 btw), keep reading my msn messenger history (its turned off, so its not being saved) and my emails, and tracking my internet usage. \n\nwhat could it be?! its not a keylogger, since i have software to watch for that!

*** UPDATE RE: HOW: download a free program called hijack this it will give you alot of info about whats running processes, programs loaded with startup, etc. http://www.majorgeeks.com/download3155.html ***\n\ncheck the actual physical connection to the back of your computer. there could be a samall adapter that goes inbetween your keyboard and the computer. also u say u have software to detects keyloggers the software might be ignore keylogger software if its legit rather than malicious spyware. u can go to start --> run --> then type msconfig and look at the startup tab and the services tab(check the box that says hide all microsoft services) then u can see whats loaded with windows...just be very careful what you do in msconfig u can screw windows up if you start messing around. good free antispyware programs are spybot search and destroy http://www.safer-networking.org/en/index.html and ad adware http://www.lavasoft.de/software/adaware/ make sure to update them! good luck. EDIT: you just added it a laptop so ignore the physical connection aspect. if u can install zone alarm firewall turn trusted zone security to "high" and that will block the network connection. or under windows firewall turn off file and print sharing. start --> control panel --> security center --> windows firewall --> exceptions

I am looking for a way to earn my associates degree in radiology. I have looked fairly well though out the net, but I can only seem to find continued learning after you have gone though a radiological program, and or have an associates degree. If anyone has seen anything along the lines of a first year online radiology program, I would greatly appreciate if you would say where you have.

I think you actually have to go to class for a radiology degree because it requires clinical time.  Since you have to practice your trade, it requires your presence in person.

The bible taught us that jesus loved a sunday roast and often knocked up bacon sandwiches with worcester sauce.

Muslims don't eat pork because it is haraam, unclean and forbidden.\n\nMany Hindus [though definitely not all] are vegetarian- they don't eat pork and beef in addition to chicken, turkey, fish, mutton, and any other kind of meat- because they believe in the sacredness of all life and ahimsa [nonviolence]. They see killing an animal as an act of violence. Also, an animal, being equal with humans in that its life is also valued and sacred, has as much right to live, in their belief, as a human. Almost all Hindus stay away from beef, even if they eat other kinds of meat, because in our belief the cow is life-giving and particularly worthy of respect. We believe that it is wrong to kill a cow because cows provide milk, manure which acts like fertilizer for the soil [many Hindus lived off agriculture in the past] and many other essentials. Lord Krishna, a Hindu God who was an avatar of Vishnu, was a cowherd and loved cows dearly.

I realize I will probably need some surgery, but I was hoping to give my skin a little help to avoid surgery as much as possible. What have some of you tried to avoid the major sagging skin that comes with major weight loss? Thank you all!

Your breasts will sag, sorry. The reason they appear full now is that breasts are made of two things, fat, and glandular tissue which makes milk. When you lose fat, you will lose it from your breasts, too and they will become smaller.\n\nIt is so very important to incorporate weight training. You will burn fat, and gain muscle which will help a lot with the sagging skin lot over your whole body. This is the slow approach. Diet and exercise. But if you do lose all that weight that fast, you skin will not contract that quickly.

The problem is when people who signed up with their yahoo, google, msn, and aol sometimes get it in their bulk/spam folder. Is there anything I can do get it in their inbox. I use my real domain in the headers. Please help. Thanks.

It's played after the kid yells "Play Ball" to the crowd before each home game

isn't it "Play Ball"?  im not sure but thats what i always thought it was.  I like it when they play Sweet Caroline.  Whoa Whoa Whoa.  \n\nGO SOX!!


Especially when they drive terrible when doing it.

They're just stupid idiots who deserve any accident they might have. The only problem is if they hit someone else. There are rules against driving while talking, and I think there is no reason whatsoever to break those rules. If you want to talk or your phone is ringing, then pull over, talk as much as you please and then drive on. It couldn't be any simpler!


I am trying to auto-fill a form and it tells me to highlight in Yellow.\nHow do i do this.

It probably doesn't say to highlight in yellow, it says that it can autofill the places highlighted in yellow.  If you are using the Google Toolbar and have entered information about yourself click "AutoFill".


Examples are band-aids, kleenex, jello, q-tip, and aspirin.  Is there a more specific term than "eponym"?

When a trademark product name becomes the name by which society identifies all similar products, that is generification. Though Kleenex is one type of tissue, most people refer to whatever tissue they have as Kleenex.  This is an example of generification.
