in WWI there was a scheffin plan, and in WWII there was the blitzcreig. so is this the ingenuity of the germans or just quickly thought up. anyway were these plans thought by the same person.

scheffin plan was made up by by a german count name alfrord von schlieffen. To answer the question of this was ingenuity or qucik thinking you have to understand one thing regardless of which side you were fighting for, you thought the war would be over by christmas 1914. The scheffin plan was to talk over paris in one swiff punch like a boxer going for a knock out in a early round.  that didn't happen and they went into trench warfare but that's aonther story. About the blitzcreig, or german for lightning fire, the germans whated to have and decissive and quick victories, that's why they took over europe so quickly. The idea was around for centeries, but the germans improved it. The master me hide this was a german gerenal Edwin Rommel.  He used airplane fire and tanks to quickly outflank his oppenets.  I hope this help you.


some of the administrative principle appear to contradict themselv e.g democracy vs justice,economy vs responsibility; flexibility vs stability how can you harmonize these in school administration

Each of the pairs of principles you have mentioned can be thought of as a continuum with a principle at each end of a scale. Administrative practice consists of finding a balance point for the opposing demands of the principles that makes sense for the population for which the school is being administered. For example, most parents want a school for their children to be just. Some parents however, and the kids themselves, want the school to be democratic. Accommodating the conflicting perspectives and maintaining an atmosphere that promotes good learning and teaching is the challenge of administrative practice.


I asked about the 3 best computers according to public opinion       Canon was mentioned never seen can"t find\nwinstonbillsacto@yahoo.com

Canon made computers in the late 1980's and early 1990's, but they stopped sometime around 1993.  There was simply to much competition.\n\nThey made laptops up until the late 1990's, but I believe they even stopped making those around 1998-1999.


can i get help on the scientific method for a project on hair chemicals

If I remember rightly from Chemistry classes (a long time ago), the curl is determined by the secondary structure of hair proteins, namely the disulfide bonds. Chemicals act by denaturalizing the protein breaking those bonds, then the hair is rearranged (in curls or straight) and when the disulfide bonds form again, they maintain the new shape.


When using a Modified 6V nicad (use to be 4.8V) it becomes very hot..probly about +70C. the system it drives is designed to automatically shut down when supply voltage drops (Unsure what to) reciently tested and found the drop from the 6V was as follows\nFully Charged = 7.55V\nShut down voltage = 5.89V\n\nHowever i have not modified the system in which it is used for so how is it that it is shutting down before the standard nicad voltage of 4.8V ?\n\nHave placed the Nicad in the freezer to see if dropping the temperature will allow me to re use the nicad in the system. \n\n\nPlease help electronics arn't my thing

NiCads in general electronic applications are typically designed to NOT get hot, since the heat destroys the NiCad battery, can damage electronics and causes lawsuits when users get burned from the hot battery.  Some devices like radio-controlled cars are high-drain applications that generate a lot of heat, so the batteries for these devices are designed for their specific use.\n\nBatteries get hot when they charge due to the high current going into them.  The faster they charge, typically the hotter they get.  When the battery discharges during use, the same thing happens, the battery gets hotter as more current is drawn from the battery.  \n\nWithout knowing anything else, my guess is that high current draw from the battery cells is causing them to heat up.  This can be due to a defective battery, a battery not designed for the way you are using it or your modification damaged the battery or is otherwise causing excessive current drain.\n\nAlso, increasing the supply voltage can drive more current through the device, so it may just be that the higher voltage is drawing more current.\n\nI’m not sure how the device is shutting down, so I can’t say why it’s doing that.  Note that the voltage at which a device stops working is the voltage seen by the device itself.  If you remove the battery from the device and measure the voltage, you will get a different voltage than if you measure the voltage at the precise moment the device shuts down.  This is especially true for high current drain applications, which appears to be what’s happening with your batteries. \n\nPlacing the NiCad’s in the freezer won't help.  They’ll have to warm up to work properly anyway.


We live in Indianapolis.  I've only lived in my brand new house 9-months, but my husband's company is relocating us (again!).

soil texture, make up of the soil, crops grown in this area, Lee county Alabama area

Piedmont is the region of the eastern United States which lies between the coastal plain, from which it is divided by the fall line, and the eastern mountain ranges, the Appalachian Mountains. The width of the Piedmont varies, being quite narrow or vanishing above the Delaware River, but nearly 300 miles (475 km) wide in the state of North Carolina.\n\n\nThe surface relief of the Piedmont is characterized by relatively low, rolling hills with heights above sea level between 200 feet (50 m) and 800 feet to 1000 feet (250 m to 300 m). Its geology is complex, with numerous rock formations of different materials and ages intermingled with one another. Basically the Piedmont is the roots of an ancient coastal mountain chain that is now worn down to low relief.

I have been a vivid fan of nanotechnology and the possibilties it can bring in the future and love the books eg engines of creation, the age of spiritual machines and the singularity is near by ray kurzweil but surely there must be more sci fi stories floating around on the net. The nanotech revolution is one great story i found online a few years ago, was a great read, would muchly appreciate ideas of where i can find more books or stories about the subject.\nAlso the book prey by michael crichton was supposed to be made into a movie, I wonder whatever happened with that ?

i want to call her so much but i never have the guts to

i think that you should call her. my boyfriend calls me all the time and he's probably not even half as cool as you are. i f you really like her you should. take a deep breath and just call her, but don't get all tongue tied because personally i hate it when guys do that. and to answer your other question about how to get her to like you more, calling her would show her that you've got nerve. i think that girls like guys who can call them and that are not to scared to call because that seems like you don't really like her.


Trojan spermicidal condoms to be more specific

I don't have any backing for my opinoins, but I will not use Trojan spermicidal lubricated condoms, ever since the time I got a UTI (unrinary tract infection) after falling asleep after using it.  I now use condoms that ae just lubricated (not spermicidal)


Prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells have a lot in common. They perform most of the same kinds of functions, and in the same ways. Both are enclosed by plasma membranes, filled with cytoplasm, and loaded with small structures called ribosomes. Both have DNA which carries the archived instructions for operating the cell. And the similarities go far beyond the visible--physiologically they are very similar in many ways. For example, the DNA in the two cell types is precisely the same kind of DNA, and the genetic code for a prokaryotic cell is exactly the same genetic code used in eukaryotic cells.


I'm kinda stuck in the middle with this one.

i think wells fargo is going the right way, they will benefit more than any other bank since its the first bank that helps people in that way, it will also generate more money for the economy, now if they were to give drivers license to them the country will boost in car sales and no car factory will have to close or laid people off..


You are living divorced and out of state from your kids. You live in this house and pay as much as you can but it don't pay the rent all the way. Every good career job you try to get fades away and someone else gets the job. Child support money is past due. You haven't even seen your kids in over 6 years now. All the cards are so stacked against you as you tru to make some kind of sence out of life. You have aspirations of financially being stable for your kids but don't know how to go from absolutly nothing to having a house, new vehicle, medicle, plain ticket money for them and so on and so fourth. \nYou lay awake at night and cry yourself to sleep as you invision the last time you saw them as the policew were dragging you out of your own house and they are crying. It kills you inside. Every thinks you are a monster, a dead beat dad, and you die a little more every single night! You goto church and even help others every single chance you get but it doesn't help. You try to get close

It is a very tough situation. And sadly there are no easy answers. I'd would at least try to speak with your children on the phone and see how they are doing.\nTry not to be too picky with work, and if you do get a job try and get at least a used car; yeah I know about used cars but if you are in a tight situation including $$$$$ then you should go with what you can afford. \nIn regards to living samething start small and then work your way up, rent or room-mate with someone for the time being.

It curves down the whole shaft I just wnat to make it normal.

Sorry, I think there is nothing to do. Any penis gets its own structure and only some surgical operation could change its shape. But doctors do it only if there is some serious obstacle for the sexual act (penetration). On the other hand, the most part of the penis curves up.... so it shouldn’t be an important matter, at least!


my son only says mama, bye, hi, every once in a while he says popa, and just babbles or opens his mouth and nothing comes out.

He will be my son was very quiet and one day he came out with a whole sentence, lol havent been able to shut him up sense.


If you think he will go pro, when do you think he get picked?

personally i wanbt him to stay so he can pick up that heisman trophy. in reality he should go pro. he might get picked second overall by the saints (aaron brooks isn't gonna play for next year), he could play for the titans (while learning from steve mcnair and becoming better {kinda like what carson had except w/ a better role model}),  get drafted by detroit (joey harrington may need some compitition in order to get better) or get drafted by kansas city (they could trade up to get him because trent green is getting old and he'll learn from another good qb). this kid got options


Like aliens or even something else?  I think there might be on like pluto or something, but that's just me.

Since there are so many planets out there, and we only know so much about our own solar system, and then there are all these OTHER solar systems out there, it would be almost silly to presume Earth is the only one w/ life.  But are there aliens out there that look like Hollywood aliens?  that's probably going to remain an open question!

Tattle Tapes are used by libraries to attach to books and other media.  When you check out books, the librarians would "desensitize" the books.  When you return the books, they would "sensitize" them.  Do these systems use magnetic fields?  The amazing things about them are that they hold their sensitivity for a long time and these tapes can be desnsitize and resensitize as many times as possible.

yes, they use magnetic fields.  3m appears to not publicize how the technology works (presumably for good reason, if it was well understood then it would be easy to defeat!)\n\nanyway i found a patent for a detection system that has some background that explains how they work.  basically they are a sandwich of 2 kinds of material.  one is a permanently magnetic material, and the other is a permanently-magnetizable material.  the poles of the two materials are oriented in opposite directions.  when you bring the magnetizable material near a strong magnet, it is magnetized, and the magnetic fields cancel out.\nthis allows them to pass through a detector without setting it off.  then when they are returned, they are exposed to a field that orients the magnetizable material the other way, which makes the fields add up into a strong magnetic field. this makes them set off the detector when you walk through it.\n\nmore info at the link below, which is not a patent for tattle-tape, but a patent for some kind of sensitizing/desensitizing system for tattle-tape:\nhttp://patft.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-Parser?Sect1=PTO2&Sect2=HITOFF&p=1&u=/netahtml/search-bool.html&r=1&f=G&l=50&co1=AND&d=ptxt&s1='tattle+tape'&OS=%22tattle+tape%22&RS=%22tattle+tape%22

We have tried many - now are using SpySweeper and BitDefender 9 Professional Plus.  I've heard Norton and McAfee are junk.  Any comments?

Try Zonealarm for a firewall, its the best firewall around.  For pop-up blocking, use free software like the Panicware Popup Blocker and the Lavasoft AdAware.  These are verry good software and I am never troubles with spyware.  McAfee is the best anti-virus software, its fast and doesn't take up resources like Norton.  Simply a firewall won't work though, you need multiple layers of defenses, a firewall, an antivirus software, anti-spyware and pop-up blocking software.  \n\nAVG is a very good and free anti-virus software.  McAfee has never given me problems for almost 3 years now.

because way back in the day, cotton plantations (among others) realised they would face some very serious competition if your government allowed hemp (the male variation of the marijuana plant) to be grown, seeing as its cheaper, more durable and just plain better than cotton. They lobbied the government hard and as they provided huge donations to both political parties got their way. Since then there has been lots of ill-informed religious right spackwads to keep it illegal free of charge.


Gosh, some of you have given really good answers...especially that it is an insult to the monkey to be compared to Bush! You all must read this if you haven't already, its too good!:\n(i am just giving bits and pieces, you'll find the whole thing on the website below)\n\nGeorge W. Bush is the 43rd President* of the United States of America. He brings a whole lifetime's experience of having sprung from the loins of a long line of entitled millionaire politicians. During high school at wildly expensive, but in no way "elitist" Philips Andover Academy, Bush eschewed the effeminacy of reading and study to throw himself more fully into the giddy world of male cheerleading. despite having been rejected from the University of Texas Law School, Bush matriculated at the less selective Harvard Business School, whose wizened administrators were capable of setting aside their egregiously discriminatory affirmative action program to mine the alumni gold buried deep within His C-strewn Yale transcript. Bush would earn His M.B.A. in 1975, at which time He would joyously bid His final farewell to the stifling, sissyish halls of the Ivy League. After ten booze-soaked years at citadels of preppy privilege, so potent was your CEO's distaste for the preening East Coast arrogance of tweed-wearing, womanish academics, He repudiated them by vowing to devote the rest of His life to speaking in a charming accent picked up while watching Roy Rogers films and a touring company production of L'il Abner. \nReturning to Texas, Bush spent the next fifteen years getting to know American voters by listening to their urgent, if somewhat slurred, concerns, as delivered from orange velour barstools in many of Houston's most troubled honkytonks. Flush with millions in wholly fortuitous, non-insider profits, Bush reveled for several years in His dream job as General Manager of the Texas Rangers baseball franchise. Then in 1994, Bush ran for and was elected Governor of Texas, narrowly defeating the suspiciously mannish and brassy Democratic incumbent Ann Richards, who once brazenly taunted Bush's father during a telecast of the 1988 Democratic National Convention. ........

If Iran continues with its nuclear development, would you support US/EU/UN military action? Why or why not?\n\nRemember that a war with Iran would be different than Iraq, since we would likely not topple the government, and simply destroy reactors, etc.

The U.N. will not be passing any resolutions anytime soon that would involve actual military action against any government or nation anytime soon. I doubt the EU would either since for that organization to pass any resolution that authorizes military force would require a general consensus among its member nations--you can count on them not act in such a way. Also, some member nations would be in the line of fire were Iran to complete its assembly of a nuclear weapon. Thus, considering that fact as well, they would be apprehensive. Thus it would down to us since it is unlikely that other nations would be bold enough to act with force premptively until they are directly threatened or attacked. So would I, right now, support U.S. military action against Iran? No, I would not: I believe our forces are spread too thin right now, domestically and across the globe where they are stationed in other countries. Also, it would be, in general, a bit too hasty to simply invade until we have secured Iraq. In an added note, I would respond to the last part of your question by asking you that if we did invade, why would we not take the time to topple the regime? In the event of an invasion, it would be the wisest choice to do that and not simply to "destroy" or dismantle the nuclear reactor facilities. To leave them in power would be like amputating the finger that has ganggreen, but not sterilizing it completely thus allowing it to fester and grow once more. Another problem with your final annecdote, it would not be so simply just to "destroy" a reactor. Such action would have massively negative reprocusions, i.e. a high civilian casualties. To dismantle it might prove just as tricky and it would surely take time and maintenance by specialists familiar with the workings of nuclear reactors. Additionally, were we to invade (and it is clear that if we did such an action must include toppling the religious-extremist regime as well)--for this reason it would be necessary for us to leave troops stationed their while the next government is installed as in Iraq. So finally, in order to do this most effectively were it to be done, Iraq would have to be secured and our troops pulled out of that region first. Before that happens, our hands are tied even if Rumsfeld or Bush will not admit it: we are chained to the options of diplomacy through the U.N. for now and/or to economic sanctions (which I believe have already been imposed). Logistically speaking, from a man-power and resource perspective, as well as a domestic approval view (whether or not both congress and the american people are in favor on such an action), it would not be in our best interest to take such action. I would not support it at this time.\n\nackerson87@yahoo.com if you would like to continue this discussion or have any other questions we might discuss.

The story must center around the places visited by an electron that once lived in an atom of wool and ultimately entered the ground. The electron must visit at least four locations(ex.ballon, a glass rod, an electroscope, or a person) during it's journey to the wool to the ground. For each change of the location of the electron identify, describe, and explain teh process (ex. friction, contact, induction) that caused the location change.

He'll be almost 39 when the 2006 season ends. Will he still be a dominant closer in '06, or will he break down and fade away?

My prediction: his skills will decline, but still be good enough to be a good closer, if not quite the best, when he's not injured.  Unfortunately, he will start getting injured more frequently.\n\nBut who knows?


Has any new evidence come up in the last few years?

No it won't.  People have been very interested in the case from the onset.  Very intelligent people have been trying to figure that one out.  So far all that they have come up with is speculation.\n\nIt is important to keep in mind that during that time a lot of murders were never solved due to limited investigatory tools.  Jack the Ripper just exploited that fact in his horrific murder spree.


Navy SEALS, Green Berets...who in your opinion is the best?

there is no best unit, each is good at doing one thing, the most fit are probably the seals(as in top notch) but each specializes in something that requires different skills, therefore each can triumph in certain situations.\nNever ask which unit in the military is the best, ask which is the best in a specific situation.\nHowever, i still like the seals the best(for elite units), they do do "warm up" in 40 degree water for a 2 mile swim. then laps around on the aircraft carrier and more swim etc.\nthe largest arm of the military is the Army, with around 500,000 combat personel.


"Well until the Flintstones can learn to stop crashing the Jetsons airplanes into buildings..........Peace through superior Firepower."\nI saw this answer to a question on the site and wanted to ask two questions. The first is whether or not terrorists are primitive, or like troglidytes? If they use technology to their advantage (and we fear this) does this not make them the Jetsons? And if they are primitive does this not prove the idea that "primitive" people are not capable of pursuing, posessing, and using WMD's? My second question is being primitive bad? Yes, I admit that being on the cutting edge of technology is great, but can the use of contemporary technology at times be primitive in itself? And at times can being primitive be of great value. Does being primitive mean that one is any dumber, or does it mean that one lacks the speed and access to discuss the same information? Ok more than two questions.

I am very pleased my previous post sparked such thought. The first of your two questions was " whether or not terrorists are primitive". I am not sure how to answer that except that OBL is probably living in a cave somewhere near the border of Afganastan and Pakistan and is offering a truths with the United States of America. (Someone isn't so sure they will get their 40 virgins.) Your second question "is being primitive bad?" No not if your fundimental beliefs are not centered around killing the innocent. I have no problem with primitave cultures. In fact I appreciate the fact that primative cultures have not disolved in our modern world.\nYou asked more than 2 questions. You went on to ask if it makes them any dumber and several other things I will try to address but it is getting late for me.\nOkay look, I have no problem with Muslims or any other specific ethnic or religous peoples. The original question was "Is war bad?" I answered quick to get my 2 points and move on, because I did not feel the asker had put much serious thought into it. War is bad. War is evil, vile, and discusting to anybody with half a brain, primative or not. However there are times when wars must be fought, and as long as there are people out there in the world that seek to cause the loss of life on our soil then we will fight them. We will start and finish them. We will destroy those who seek to destroy us. Peace through superior firepower is a sad way of puting it, I know. However the best defense is a strong offence. You do not have to agree with me but please believe me I say these things with conviction. I wish the world was a peacefull place. I would feel alot better about the saftey of my children. However the world is not peacefull, far from it. There are people who wish to destroy us and our way of life so bad they are willing to die for it. Well I for one am willing to die to defend it.


How to do the synthesis benzyl alcohol from benzaldehyde or benzoic acid

You can reduce benzaldehyde with sodium borohydride or lithium aluminum hydride (LAH).\n\nSodium borohydride is not sufficiently reactive to reduce benzoic acid.  It will neutralize the acid to benzoate, but the benzoate will resist reduction by the borohydride.\n\nLAH, on the other hand, will reduce the benzoate produced by the reaction of LAH and benzoic acid.

What are the side effects of smoking Marijuana? and if there are any why do doctors prescribe it an medicine?

Dr Dee is high.  Marijuana and morphine are completely different.  Morphine is an opiate derived from poppies, while marijuana is derived from cannabis.\n\nSide effects include disorientation, short term memory loss, red/dry eyes, lethargy, increase appetite, reduced reaction speed, and occaisionally hallucinations.  Plus, if smoked, there are other issues about the toxic/carcinogenic nature of the smoke.\n\nMost all drugs have some form of side effects.  Acetominophin (the active part of Tylo-nol (deliberately misspelled to avoid legal issues)) is toxic to the liver; morphine is addictive and causes drowsiness and may exacerbate depression, antibiotics can make you more suceptible to yeast infections, etc.  The point in any medication is does the benefit outweigh the problems?  The primary three things I know of marijuana being prescribed for are AIDS (to induce appetite), lymphomic cancer (to supress nausea associated with chemotherapy), and glaucoma (to act as an accular vasodilator to reduce pressure).  The first two involve people who are already facing almost certain death in the near future, and the third--blindness is worse than the side effects of marijuana.\n\nYou must always do a cost-benefit analysis with medication.  Marijuana is seldom prescribed due to the problems with the drug, but sometimes it is the best available option.

Am I married to a pig or what? I know it's going to get worse as she gets older. It makes me want to puke.

I know I bathe every day in the winter, and usually two or three in the summer, depending on what I've been doing.  \n\nI feel for you, I was married to the male version...he couldn't seem to understand why I didn't want him to sit next to me, never mind fool around!  I finally left him (not for that reason, there was a lot going on), but before I left, I told him to keep it in mind for the next woman's benefit.\n\nGood luck!

I believe in God and I am thoroughly puzzled that God would make somebody homosexual if it is such a horrible sin.  Additionally, why is it that such a small percent of the population is affected by this 'sin?'  We are all, to some extent, tempted by greed, lust, sloth, etc.  All of us commit these other 'lesser' crimes, some more than others.  Why would only a select few be the perpetrators of such a sin?  I have struggled since my adolescence to be straight, and do not understand why I cannot be something that is supposedly the right way to be.  If being homosexual automatically elects us for hell, why would God make a few people destined for hell from birth?  Keep in mind, that for all of the other sins (that I can think of), we all possess/commit them to some extent.  I need a solution for this homosexuality dilemma.  (Thank you for reading and/or answering such a long question.)

Well, I didn't have to open the above link to know what it would say.\n\nYour question was extremely eloquent, and very valid to question these things.\n\nIn all fairness, I gave up on religion (at least my religion, catholicism, anyways), as I did not agree with many of their outdated views. They continue to ban homosexuality, rating it as a sin, and continue not to allow women priests.\n\nBeing gay myself, I know, as you know yourself, that this is how you are made. This is who you are. No amount of praying or trying to be anything else is ever going to change that.\n\nDeep down, I think we all know that this is how God made us. Infedelity, murder, greed, all easy to see how they are sins - they are perpetrated and can be redeemed... but wanting to be in loving relationships with members of your own sex - I could never understand how sinful that is.\n\nI know this is how I always was, I know that there is a lot of good I do in my life, and I try to lead a good and honest one, by being kind to my fellow human beings, respecting them, and overall trying to do some good.  The fact that I want to spend my life with a man instead of a woman - well I am positive that if I'm going to hell, it won't be because of this - how can it possibly? \n\nThe people on this earth who say we will go to hell, have not personally died and witnessed where straight and gay people go after they die. Hence they have no authority to tell us what will happen to us in an afterlife, and your guess is as good as theirs.\n\nAt least you know this is who you are - do not fight it, live a good and happy life, try to do good and live a moral life - one that you will be happy and fulfilled with, not one you will be miserable in and struggle to overcome something that is not overcomable. And know that while some will think you are sinning, there are others who are sure you are not. Its all opinion anyway.\n\nNo quoting bibles guys, the law of the bible is more strict than what is being practiced now anyway - statements such as slavery being acceptable are clearly wrong in this day and age, so why can people selectively discard these statements but hold onto its thoughts about homosexuality?\n\nToo many youths are depressed and sometimes comitting suicide due to society's inacceptance to gays. This has got to end. It's been a long time coming.


they called it not being aware of my surroundings after perusing my 18 year file of employment which includes 5 comp surgeries. could this be misconstued as harassment if it started 95 and continued 10 yrs.

Yes. If you are out to prove that your injuries were the result of negligence by management, you are going to have to prove that your working conditions and those of other people who have similar job assignments inevitably lead to those surgeries. If however, you are the only one who keeps needing surgeries and everyone else is fine, then management can reasonably argue that you are simply a klutz and incompetence on your part is the primary cause of your injuries.

Dress good, black pants or long black skirt. Closed heeled shoes and a dress shirt or sweater. Try not to be very flashy, ex: dont wear lots of jewelry or tons of makeup. Most of all be yourself but be conservetive and proffesional. Answer with complete sentences, no slang or yep and nope. Also, if the job that they start explaining to you does not sound like something you are willing to do, dont pretend to want the job and tell them you will come in. Politely say that it doesnt sound like the job for you. Good luck!


For me "The Stand " "The green Mile" and "shawshenk redemption" are the best ones. How about you guys?

There's an Excel spreadsheet on the fileserver that my coworker needs to be able to edit and I need to be able to view (but not edit).\n\nIf she's already editing the spreadsheet, I'll get the option to open it read-only and she'll be able to open and edit the file. But if I open it first, she can only view it and is unable to edit it.\n\nHow can I open the spreadsheet without taking away her ability to edit it?\n\nSome notes: The spreadsheet is too big for me to make a copy of it each time I want to view it. Similarly, it would be inconvenient for her to keep the spreadsheet open all of the time.

To do so:\n\n- From "File" menu, choose "Open"\n- Locate the file, highlight it, then look at the "open" button, you'll see a small arrow (Like the one in combo box).\n- click on the small arrow, a menu will appear.\n- choose "Open Read-Only"

Canada has vast open spaces. While China is geographically large, its huge population certainly diminishes the number of wild and natural landscapes available.\n\nCanada, with its vast and empty boreal forests, is any naturalist's dream. Any Chinese nationals seeking the wide open wilds could do worse in terms of finding somewhere to migrate to.


Is there a benifit to having two websites, one for spanish and one for english, if so what is the benifit? Or is it better to have both languages on the same website.

In my opinion (maybe not others opion) it is often difficult enough to navigate most websites without having double the clutter to look at. That is why I dezign my sites with an index.html content of "Select language" (in both languages) and a link to english.html and one to espan.html. I realize this doubles your creation time, but, if I visit your site and get discouraged before finding my way to the cash register, what good is it. I may be more likey to go to the next search result that is easier to navigate.

You have a charged capacitor with a value of .1f.  What would you have to do to find out how much charge is stored in the capacitor?

You would need to know what voltage the capacitor was charge to. Volts * capacitance = Coulombs

American Banks: how to open an account, how to read the fine print, how to know if it is really free, how to balance a checkbook or use a program to do this.\nGrocery Shopping: how to pick veggies and fresh fruit, how to read a package label, when does the shelf life expire, when was it baked.\nPublic transportation:  pay by the ride or buy a pass, how to read a bus or el route, how to avoid getting lost, when should you take a taxi.\nFashion:  What to wear and where to find it, how to figure your size, do those shoes fit.\nPersonal grooming:  how to get rid of hair, how to keep it manageable, how often to trim or get it cut, what you should know about hair dying.\nYou get the idea.

Check out the Small Business Administration web site -- they're a great resource for the small business owner. I listed a couple of other handy links as well.\n\nTry reading up on the subject -- check out Amazon, your local bookstore or library. \n\nPrior to investing your time, money & effort into a business name, it is strongly advised that comprehensive research be conducted to ensure that the name you're interested in is truly available. \n\nThis entails searching the pending & registered Federal and State trademark files as well as the US National Common-Law files. Then, if clear, you can decide if you would like to file for a Federal or a State trademark. \n\nResearch is needed to make sure your trade name is legally available, before opening, before expansion, before incorporation or before designing your logo.

Similar names in related classes, distribution channels and customer matter too. You are affected by Common Law use (14 million), State Trademarks (500,000) and Federal Trademarks (2 million).


How can I convert MP3 ringtones to Midi Sequence Ring tones?

You cannot. MP3s are actual audio, while MIDIs are instructions to tell the computer how to generate the audio.


The question has been surprisingly hard for me to answer.  If you can provide any references, that would SO helpful!!

Each cell in the human body contains thousands of different proteins, the most abundant and diverse class of biomolecules. Proteins are, in fact, present in the cells of all living organisms, though each different species contains a slight to major variation in the number and type of the biomolecules so that there are literally millions of different proteins that exist in the biological world. Proteins play a major role both in cellular structure and function, some being involved in such activities as transport, catalysis, storage, contraction, and protection, while others form critical parts of the cytoskeleton. The types of protein differ from cell to cell, but all have the same basic structure with respect to the constituent amino acids that make up the backbone. Most proteins are biological macromolecules that range in molecular weight from about 6,000 to several million Daltons. They are all polymers that are composed of covalently linked amino acids. The number, chemical nature, and sequential order of amino acids in a protein chain determine the distinctive structure and characteristic chemical behavior of each protein.\n\nAs for order of quantities:\n ~25% of the proteins found in the body are classified as collagens. Followed by keratins, the muscle proteins actin and myosin then hemoglobin.


A girl said at school a guy doesn't like me because she like's him.

that's absurd! it doesn't necessarily follow that just because the girl likes the guy, the guy doesn't like you anymore. that's just her way of getting you away from the guy. so that she can get the guy all for herself. for all you know, the guy may even like you more than that other girl. so cheer up! be confident! act as if the girl doesn't exist! she'll just ruin your life. hehe. :)


Should the Texans draft Heisman Trophy-winner Reggie Bush or hometown boy Vince Young?

i used to hate...HATE vince young. i hate qbs who cant pass and last year i would have been a better NCAA passer than him. but over the offseason he worked really hard on it and came out with the highest qb efficiency rating in the nation. he showed real maturity in some of his descision making abilities and completely dominated the rose bowl, where reggie made the stupidest descision in Nat. champ. history with is ill-advised lateral...to a fat white guy


I want to know about the possibilities to live in the USA, specifically in California

getting a greencard takes long (I heard up to three years too). Don't know if you can get one before you go. Usually you have to find somebody who hires you under a H1B worker (the job has to require at least a bachelors degree). Only big companies will even know how to do that and be willing to do that (and universities would fall under big companies)


I have many items that I want to sell, but I don't want to waste my time unless I know others may want to purchase them.  Jeans for teen girls?  What brand sells best.  Teen boy clothing, same question.  I have hundreds of old record albums, which ones should I list?  Thanks!

My advice is to research how well items similar to what you want to sell have sold in the past. To do this, go to advanced search, type in the item, but click 'show completed listings only.'\n\nYou can see how much certain things usually sell for, which items get the most bids, etc. \n\nPay attention to how successful auctions are listed and try to model yours after them. \n\nGood luck to you!


Me and my friends are working on a game and we need to know if we can use PERL and C++ together.

You can add a Perl parser into a C++ program.  Many games do something similar to this; writing the game engine in C++ and scripting the AI using Perl.


I know this one is gross, but someone out there really does know the answer to the dilemma that women face ALL the time. This is a  natural part of women's lives, and I just need an answer from someone who either has tried something that really does work...all the time, or from someone who has done some research into the best cleaning products for certain situations. The thing is that mentrual blood and the blood from when you cut yourself are very, very different. Mentrual blood has other elements in it because of what creates it....and where it comes from most l ikely has something to do with it, too.

I have been feeling better that past couple days, and today i woke up sore all over like i had been working out, and i have not, and lost all my energy.  it feels like you do when you have a fever... just drained.  i am sorry to ask, but i can't find any answers on the web.  I just need to know is it really possible to be sick with both at the same time?

I strongly recommend talking to your doctor and getting a chest xray to rule out pneumonia.  Being as you had a cold which is primarily an upper respritory disease, if it suddenly relapsed into a stronger virus (and being as your immunities are already down) it could turn into any number of things quickly.  Also, bulk up on your vitamin C and zinc.  Both will help you feel better faster.  The primary thing, listen to your body.  Sounds like you are worn down from all of this and are in serious need of rest.  And dont forget the old standard of homemade chicken soup.  Not the canned stuff.  Homemade chicken soup has so many vitamins and nutrients in it that its not funny and its also a comfort food.  Hope you feel better soon.


me and my girl were talking and I asked her what she did last night and she said nothing, but I saw her at the club.

I want to set up an intranet site at work and host a http:// page for colleagues to look at. The site will have a MS Access data base in it.

Yes. This is very possible. First of all, you need a domain name. I use http://noip.com , because it's free. Then, you need to get a hosting program/server. I recommend Foxserv. It is very simple to set up. Get it at http://sourceforge.net/projects/foxserv/ . It is the simplest way to set up your own server.\n\nYou also need a page to display. Try phpnuke. It's what I use, and it is very easy to configure and is good looking and provides a lot of functionality. Check it out at http://phpnuke.org.\n\nGood Luck!

i want to know those rules of concord we have in grammar and english language

11.1. Quick Start\nConcord is agreement in gender, case, number or person between different words that share a reference. For example, if a sentence contains a proper noun "Paul" and somewhat later a pronoun "he," and they refer to the same person, we say that they agree in number (for both are singular) and gender (for both are masculine).\n\nAs speakers or writers of a language we experience concord as a set of rules to learn and follow (and sometimes complain about). As listeners or readers we recognize that concord helps us decode sentences. In this passage\n\nElizabeth Bennet had been obliged, by the scarcity of gentlemen, to sit down for two dances; and during part of that time, Mr Darcy had been standing near enough for her to overhear a conversation between him and Mr Bingley, who came from the dance for a few minutes, to press his friend to join it. \ntwo grammatical rules help us to determine the reference of the pronouns "her," "him" and "his." The first of these is that a pronoun must agree with its antecedent in gender and number; this rule associates "her" with Elizabeth Bennet (rather than Darcy, who would otherwise be a possible antecedent) and prevents our associating "him" or "his" with Elizabeth Bennet. The second is that a pronoun must be associated with the most recent possible antecedent; by this rule we understand "his friend" to mean "Bingley's friend" rather than "Darcy's friend."\n\nWe work out the reference of the pronouns in a passage like the one above without conscious effort. Indeed the Modern English rules of concord are few and relatively simple:\n\nThe subject must agree with its verb in person and number. For most Modern English verbs this simply means that we must remember that a third-person singular subject generally takes a special verb form ending in -s. The verb to be, however, distinguishes all three persons in the present singular (I am, you are, she is) and the second person in the past singular (I was, you were, he was). \nThe pronoun must agree with its antecedent in gender and number. If you speak of a woman named Ruth in one clause and then in the next clause want to refer to her with a pronoun, the pronoun must be both feminine and singular. \nThe pronouns that and this, when used adjectivally, must agree in number with the nouns they modify: that wolf, those wolves; this horse, these horses. These pronominal adjectives are not inflected for gender. \nThe first two Modern English rules of concord are largely the same as in Old English. The third Modern English rule is a remnant of an Old English rule that a noun and all its modifiers (adjectives and pronouns used adjectivally) must agree in gender, case and number. All three of these rules are a little more complex in Old English than in Modern English, so you will have to pay careful attention to the rules of concord--at first, anyway.\n\n11.2. Subject and verb\nThe Old English verb must agree with its subject in person and number. The Old English finite verb always distinguished number and often distinguished person, and this relatively great degree of expressiveness can help you locate hard-to-find subjects, as here:\n\nÞæt wæs yldum cūþ,\nþæt hīe ne mōste,   þā Metod nolde,\nse scynscaþa   under sceadu breġdan. [Beowulf, ll. 705-7.] \n[It was known to men\nthat the demonic foe could not, if God did not wish it,\ndrag them under the shadows.]\nIn the noun clause that begins in the second line of this passage, the nominative/accusative third-person plural pronoun hīe comes before the verb mōste 'could', where Modern English grammar leads us to expect the subject. But the verb is plainly singular, so plural hīe cannot be the subject. Looking further, we find the nominative singular noun phrase se scynscaþa 'the demonic foe'; this is the subject.\n\nA verb's personal ending is


Do you think she will try it?\nDo you think she will win?\nWould you vote for her?\nWHY?\nMy oppion- yes she'll try, no she wont win, no i wont vote!\n\nb/c once a month we'll be going to war, menstral cycle!

No, I don't think she'll try, No, I don't think she'd win, I doubt if I'd vote for her. However, she does have the money and popular support to try and would probably have the best chance of winning out of any minority woman that might attempt  to run. More power to her if she tries.


Ok me and this guy have been friends for a while and he wants to take our friendship to the next level. But I think that he just wants sex and I dont want that plus he  has a girl friend! life is so difficult right now please help!

he probably wants you for the wrong reasons. hold off because, being a virgin makes you very desirable.


A salmon swims 24 km downstream from its birthplace to the ocean in three hours. The return upstream takes to spawm takes five hours. How fast does the salmon swim in still water?

let x=velocity of water downward and y=velocity of salmon. since the salmon travels 24km downstream in 3hours, the velocity of the salmon is:\n\n24km/3hr=y+x (in this case, both the water and salmon are travelling downwards)\n\nsimilarly, the salmon travels upstream in 5hours:\n\n24km/5hr=y-x(in this case, the salmon is travelling upstream while the water is travelling downwards, thus "-x")\n\nadd the two equations and you get:\n\n24km/3hr + 24km/5hr = 2y\n\ny = (120km/15hr + 72km/15hr)/2\n\ny = (192km/15hr)/2\n\ny = 32km/5hr\n\nthus the salmon will swim at 32km/5hr in still water.  this translates to 16m/9s in case you wanted to know :)


Stop talking in the mirror again, silly!


Can someone tell me what Marianna and Mariana mean? I'd like to know their personality traits and anything else you can find out, like the origin, the meaning, etc. Thanks!

Marianna, Mariana, Marianne, Marian, Mary-Ann(e) etc. are all the same from the point of view of their meaning. You can inverse the two components so you'll gett Annemarie, Annamaria, Ann-Mary etc.\n\nMaria is a Biblical name, its original Hebrew form was Miriam, this has been modified in Greek and Latin translations. Its meaning is debatable. Some say it means bitter water. Its popularity comes because of the mother of Jesus who had this name. \n\nMaria's mother was Anna, also a Hebrew name of course, its orriginal form is Hannah. Its meaning is mercy.\n\nNicknames to Maria: Mary, Marika, Marinka, Maritsa, Mitsi, Maya, Mara, Manka, Mimi, Ria, plus the nicknames in other languages.\nRelated names: Manna, Manon, Mara, Marielle, Mariella, Marietta, Marina, Marinella, Marinetta, Marinka, Marion, Mariora, Marishka, Marita, Marléne, Masha, Mia, Mietta, Mimi, Miriam, Miryam, Moira, Molli, Polli, Ria.\n\nNicknames to Anna: Anni(e), Anny, Ani, An(n)ika, etc. Related names: Anda, Anelia, Aneta, An(n)ette, Anetta, Anica, Anitsa, Anika, Aniko, Anilla, Anina, Anita, Anka, Annie, Nanette, Nanetta, Netta, Netti(e), Netty, Nina, Ninelle, Ninette, Ninetta, Ninon.\n\nThere are some opinions that the name Mariana could origin from the Latin men's name Marianus which means: "a man belonging the the nation of Marius". And Marius means probably "manly".


Maybe we should think along the lines or what strategies Hitler would have used were he alive today. He does have a nephew living in New York under a new identity, believe it or not!

The war would of never started.  If hitler was president we(usa) wouldnt be controlled by isreal.  There would be no jewish influence in america for war to happen.


So dont want the oil companies to do well so we have more money coming into the federal government?

I know that over the years PGE collected over $357 million for federal taxes and $35 million for state taxes from Oregon ratepayers and sent the money to Enron. Enron never paid a dime of it in taxes. In fact Enron paid NO federal taxes from 1998 to 2001. \nTo be profitable, how many billions did Enron rip off in Retirement funds? How many billions did it ripoff the ratepayers? Are you saying it's okay to steal, lie, and cheat as long as you pay taxes? How much did corporate profitability benefit the people who lost their life's savings? How much did it benefit the Californians who had their power blacked out to manipulate the market? How about the ratepayers that were overcharged? How profitable has Enron been since they declared bancruptcy? Sorry, I guess I'm answering your question with more questions.


I need articles and citations in the original peer-reviewed literature that relate to the use of molybdenum blue to form the phosphomolybdate complex which is used to measure phosphates by UV-vis spectrophotometry. Similarly, the use of the arsenomolybdate heteropoly acid to measure arsenic spectrophotometrically.

Search at http://scholar.google.com \n\nOnce you find the articles, see if the sources are free. Good luck!


I dreamd very vivid dreams. I dream of my son alot. I dream ofpast relationships, and of course things that I dont know where they came from. But my husband is never in them. Can someone enlighten me why this could be ?

It could just mean that your mind doesn't bring up thoughts about your husband during sleep. Or you just might not remember dreaming about your husband. Same thing happens for me.


Can a subject be hypnotised into answering any question truthfully if they're given a keyword command?

There are still debates about it. I personally say yes, I read somewhere that CIA use that method to interview.\n\nPS: go to my question 'Is it real love or hypnosis'\nThere're experts said hypnosis couldn't be done beyond free will. But I found cases in real life that it was possible. I am as confused as you.


depends on if you want public or private.  all the public ones are since they are funded by the state.  private ones can be located at http://www.tepsac.com/directory/


...and neither are allowed to watch the other's film.  Since I'm a girl, I dunno what the guys watched, but we got to watch a movie about our periods and an abortion flick. Wonderful schtuff for a 4th grader, I'll tell ya.  That was years ago, though.  I doubt they do that anymore.

5th grade.  That was so GROSS!  I remember feeling sick in my stomach!

We have Windows 2003 std and I'm able to logon to my server via remote web client from remote.companyname.com/tsweb. But I'm not able to connect using Remote Desktop from the same network or any other network as a matter of fact. It finds the machine but when putting admin username/pwd....it gives the following error and doesnt let me login.\n\n"To log on to this remote computer, you must have Terminal Server User Access Permissions on this computer. By Default, memebers of the Remote Desktop Users group have these permissions. If you are not a member of the Remote Desktop group or another group that has these permissions, or if the Remote Desktop user group does not have these permissions, you must be granted these permissions manually."\n\nI dont have Citrix Metaframe or anything. Also I dont have any License server either, but I just started using TS 9 days ago, so I think there is enough time left on the trial (120) period. If licensing was a problem then how come remote web client works fine?. Please somebody help me solve this. Thanks.\n\nMK

The error states that you are not in the Remote Desktop Users group.  If you are the admin, then place yourself in that group on the server and you should be ok.


Definitely have to agree with you - Barcelona!!!


I am a die hard Eagle fan and i want other peoples opinions on them

I think so. I'm also a die hard Eagles fan (I happen to be a Philadelphian). I think all the drama with TO brought down the team mentally, and the fact that McNabb got hurt so early on didn't help (not to mention all the other hurt players). If they run the ball more and all the players are healthy, we can definitely do it. Everyone said we'd be no one without TO. They'll see next year. We'll be the ones winning the Bowl.


If we all just agreed that no words were offensive, and obscene... there would be nothing left to offend.

"Bad" words are powerful; the people who say them choose to do so for power reasons.  They are "bad" because members of that culture who use that language have decided that they are bad.  In that way, the decision about which words are bad are entirely arbitrary.  However, I believe that bad words can reveal what are the powerful topics in a culture.  For example, in English-speaking American culture, you'll notice that many of the bad words have to do with bodily functions, and there are also many more euphemisms having to do with money and death.  This demonstrates that these are powerful topics for Americans, and the people who choose to use these words are doing tampering with powerful topics.\n\nOne thing that might be of interest to you is also the historical split between acceptable words and bad words based on whether they originally came from Latin roots or Anglo-Saxon roots.  Since English descended from these two different language backgrounds, we often have two different words that mean the same thing, one from each.  In pretty much every case, the Latin word is considered the acceptable word in medical situations, while the Anglo-Saxon word is considered to be the "vulgar" version.


My boyfriend went out with me just to get back with my friend Brandi what should i do?\nAny answeres

tell him that he is a jerk! going out with someone to make your ex jelous is so pathetic! Breakup with him and tell Brandi what he did.


please help me.  I need the money that i can make.  if you are making a lot of money online please let me know.  I would really appreciate it.

You may try ebay .   You do not need to have the goods you want to sell .   But you would not get instant results .   Number of things will have to be handled before you succeed.   But this is a business where minimum capital is required .  You have not informed you age .   Answers would be different for different age group people.


i am married but my husband is not a citizen yet so i cant apply for him.  he also works but he only makes 1000 a month.

Depends on what state you live in.  The cost of living varies from state to state, so the amount of benifits you will recieve will vary as well.

The puter tells me that the file Hpzr3209 is missing... What can I do to correct the problem? I did try to reload from the website then I found the cd... and tried it? And it tells the the same thing... what can I do to correct the problem?\n\nThis is on  the HP Printers...

Go to your hardware profiles under system in the control panel. See if it's there at all. Check your cables. Restart the computer after an install. If this doesn't work, go to add-remove programs in the control panel and remove the software. Go to printers and remove it if it's there  too. Turn off the computer. Make sure the printer is connected and on. Turn computer on. Computer should say it found new hardware. Install from the cd that came with it. If this doesn't work, drink a six-pack and call customer support in the morning.


at what point in the process does the law actually involve itself?  I mean if you called a church to set up a marriage, could you do so without involving the law?  At what point in history did people think it was necessary that law be applied to marriage, I mean, why cant two people just make the marriage contract between themselves and the church?  what is this madness?

If you wish to be legally wed, you must get a marriage license from the county in which you plan to have the ceremony conducted. If you just want to play house without protecting your legal interests, talk to your Clergyman about a commitment ceremony, but don't gripe when you can't put each other on your health insurance,visit each other in the hospital if one of you gets incapicitated, have to go through hell and back to make funeral arrangements, have trouble getting a mortgage or life insurance and your auto insurance premiums stay the same instead of dropping by nearly 25% if you both have decent driving records.


Why or why not? Please explain your answer.

Zero divided by zero is an indeterminate value. If you ever take a calculus course you will see this kind of thing crop up.\n\nThere are things you can do to evaluate expressions that are essentially exactly what you are asking about.....namely: zero divided by zero.\n\nThink about it.....you're saying you're going to arbitrarily call the result of a basic arithmetic calculation either zero or infinity. Two vastly different values. That alone signifies that more is needed in order to properly evaluate such a thing.


Right now I'm addicted to Special K of all things! With tons of sugar, of course.

cherrios with strawberries = yum in the tum tum xP.


we have kids..but he has a drug addiction

I would probably leave him or ask him to leave.  Tell him when he gets his sobriety and stays on a regular program, you will consider taking him back.  It's not good for the kids and it's not good for you to live with the results of another persons addiction.  You can't fix him, that's his choice and until he makes it you need to look out for those babies, and for yourself.  Good Luce


I know you are supposed to oil it after every ride, but how often do you really need to?  I ride about 25-50 miles a week on my road bike, and I just had a chain break mid-ride.  I am wondering if it is due to poor chain maintenance . . .

wow, good job staying healthy with all those miles. Anyway, you don't have to. But riding that avidly could mess it up. When you ride over a mile in weather 40 degrees and below, you should grease once a month. In the summer you should be fine. \nThe only other time to grease you chain is when your chain falls off. Especially in cold weather.\nI don't think your incedent had anything to do with maintence, unless its cold. Maybe just your stock chain ( Stock I assume) was weak. Just make sure you do it when its cold and when it falls off and you'll be fine


My husband deleted the cookies on our computer.  Is there any way I can restore them?  I have Windows XP.

cookies have nothing to do with the history of sites you visited. So restoring them would not help.\n\nIf he deleted the history, there's nothing you can do ... but wait ... did he deleted the cookies? no, so here's what we are going to do ...\n\nwe are going to use the cookies to see if we can find the site, search for the \n\nc:\WINDOWS\TEMP\Cookies\nc:\WINDOWS\Cookies \n\nthen change the view to details, and open the first column until you see the whole text. \n\nIts going to take a while to look at all your cookies, and try to remember if the sites name, but if it stored a cookie, it might be there.\n\nonce you find it, dont open the cookie, just type the URL on the browser and bookmark the site =)


i know that sinorice moss is santana's lil bro.

they aren't related. they just happen to have the same last name. though u are right that sinorice moss(a great college wide receiver that's goin to the draft this year) is santana's lil' bro. and if washington would not have given that 1st round draft to denver this year, they might of got sinorice moss.


Back in the Summer I went to the ER, & they discovered by X-Ray that I had/have a 1cm. kidney stone, & told me to drink plenty of water, & that I should pass it on my own...Well, I'm not much of a water drinker, however, I have been drinking plenty of fluids...but anyways...My question is - Is it possible to pass a 1cm. without being able to tell it?. I have heard mixed answers on this question before when I asked family & friends...others say it is possible when it's that tiny, & others say no...I'm not sure what to believe...To my knowledge I haven't passed it yet, but then again, if it's possible to pass a 1cm stone that tiny & it be painless, then I possibly could have...I'm just wondering, 'cause if it's not possible to have passed it without any pain, then, I just want to know that I have that to look forward to in my future...Any Dr.'s, or nurses out here that can answer my question?...others are welcome to answer as well. Thanks :)

I had a 9mm stone that was broken up with a lithotripsy procedure. The result was several stones that were 1-2cm. The pain was the worst of my life. \n\nSo, it is possible to have passed the stone. Only an KUB XRay should tell (and even then it might not). But, if you have no pain, and no blood in your urine, you might be just fine.


I am 32 and gradually balding. What kind of doctor should I contact with?

Hmmm... it depends on what the cause of the hair loss is.  A dermatologist is probably a good start.  You can even ask the dermatologist if there is anyone else you should see.


It has to be about a Jewish family and an Indonesian family (they're somehow related) and they have to meet at some kind of cultural event/gathering. I doubt ANYONE can think of a logical explanaition but any help would be good.

have u ever heard about the lost tribe of israel? make the jewish guy a researcher in archelogy or ethnology or something like that; he will find, through a long journey, that this lost tribe has vanished in indonesia; he will meet a indonesian professor of ilterature, who will be a member of a secret association gathering last members of this lost tribe who practice some dance ritual each time they meet.\nthat's a good summary


me and my best friend are sooo close but i like him a little more then just friends. but i don't know if i should ask him out or not???

I think you should think about it and tell him if you are relly sure you want to. Does it seem like he feels something for you? If you break up or are rejected there is a possibility that your frienship will change. But it is not good to keep it to yourself because you might have a chance and if you dont tell him you might regret not taking the risk later on in your life.

The bird flu that has occupied the agenda of Turkey are proliferating and jeopardizing the life of almost everyone in the country.I think EU and USA should make contributions to Turkey to get rid of the disease ,which has brought about death of 13 people so far.Besides precautions taken by the government and by the ministries concerning should be increased as soon as possible.

How do you know that they haven't made contributions?\n\nIf you read the links below the US and the EU are giving money.

that can hide it the crevices of your body, like in your belly button or behind your ear?\n\nIf you answered yes, you are a self-sniffer.  You actually made a concious effort to smell your crevices.\n\nIf you answered no, defend you answer, I don't beleive you.

I didn't have any particular title that described me until just now.  Thank you.  I'm a crevice sniffer.\n\nBut I can't reach my belly button.  How do I do that? what if it has a bad smell, like something was left in there too long.  Do I ask another crevice sniffer to check for me?  Is that proper?  and how do you know someone is a crevice sniffer without flat out asking them?


very curious about numbers.  Why is cutting and pasting so important?

I called my sister and asked her.  She's a kindergarten teacher.  \n\n\n"Knowing manners, sharing, waiting for a turn are all more important than knowing numbers and letters from day one.  Knowing them helps, but they come to school to learn the numbers and letters.  That's what kindergarten is for."\n\n\nShe recommends making sure your child is part of a playgroup or preschool at least once a week so  he/she knows how to deal with other kids.\n\nOh and cutting/pasting is for hand eye coordination and important brain development.\n\nI hope that helps.

Im 20, a girl and a virgin. I have passed up a lot of guys hoping to wait until marriage. Is it true that the longer you wait the better it will be?

YES, YES, YES!! It is more than worth the wait. It's better to wait, than not to wait and regret it. What you have is very precious. You can only give it away once. Let it be to your husband. He will appreciate that you guarded something just for him. It's the most loving thing you can do for your future. There's just so many reasons to guard what you have. Many will tell you it's no big deal...because they already gave theirs away. It IS a big deal. Take it from one who gave it away at 18 and regretted it very much later. Even though my hubby forgave me for the loose life I had led before we got married, I still have all those memories of wasting myself on jerks and idiots. All they wanted was a good time. All I wanted was someone to love me. The guy I married? He's the only one who didn't want to use me like that. He wanted more than a one night stand. Don't think that passing up those guys was a mistake, especially if they didn't want to get to know you as a person without getting the perks first. You just continue guarding what you have. I'm sure there's a guy out there who will appreciate it very much...with a wedding ring. <*)))><


it is so important to me that i now how to do this thxs a lot if you answer.

If you have an image taken on a standard film-type camera and would like it to be accessible on your computer WITHOUT a scanner, first you need to develop the image.  After that, you can use a digital camera or a cellphone with a digital camera to take a picture of your picture.  After that, you should be able to take it from there.


I'm new to snowboading.  Is it ok to use my mountain bike helmet to snow board?

I would not because the bike helmet is made as light as possible, probably is not waterproof,does not have the same insulation (cool versus warm) and probably is designed for a different type of fall (you are more likely to slam your head in a backwards fall on a snowboard. Besides you will probably look goofy to boot


When I see my friends, theyre all somewhere near 5'8". Do you think ethnicity and genetics are a big factor?

You're taller than me and I'm 48. Several of my girlfriends were taller and I didn't complaint. Be worry to be smarter, not to be taller unless you wanna be an NBA star. I agree with others, ethnicity and genetics are the main factors for this result.


were going to have about 50 people and we need help with how to schudule and plan what to do and when? how do we know what to do with guest and what do they exspect from us (bride and groom)were on a fairly low buget with no help from either parents. we want a simple wedding,but a sussecfull one,please any advise and suggestions will be appreciated

First pick a day! then find you Pastor,Justice of the pease,Who ever you are going to have Marry you! That is usually the hardest part to get set.Make sure they are available the day that you want. Marrige license tend to expire within 60 days I think so figure that into the day you have set with your "Pastor".Week days are cheeper if your going for an inside wedding/reception.Out side is even cheeper. We did out side.Do you have or want a theme? Example: Hawaiian Theme go to Oriental Trading on line,it is a part/novelty company they have tons of party supplys in bulk. Based on you theme/ colors what kind of dress. In our wedding that was the most expencive.My bride's maids agreed to buy there own dresses,they actually had fun picking out matching dresses. We bought shirts for the Grooms men (We Know Guys)If you want it done right do it your self. and who knows what they would have came back with! any way...\nCake I did my own cake. 3 teirs white and chocolate. White frosting.My frosting recipe(feel lucky!) Mix powdered sugar and unsalted butter and only a table spoon of vanilla with about a cup of milk.Awsome frosting!The rest could be purchased at a rental place near you based on how much you are ready to spend. A big rental place is usually good about helping with number of guests and how far you can go on your budget. This is all if you choose to do an out doors wedding.\nHopefully I have been helpful. If you need any more advice e-mail me brudneyflower@yahoo.com


what phylum contains organisms that must have two nuclei?what are these nucei called and what are there function of each?\n\nthis question is from an previuos test that i was unable to answer.

"Phylum Ciliophora:...A unique feature of all ciliates is the presence of two nuclei. The macronucleus  controls the cells growth and contains hundreds of copies of DNA. The micronucleus  is a small diploid nucleus used during the process of conjugation when genetic material between paramecia is swapped."\n\nThere are others out there, especially funguses that have multiple nuclei, but this seemed the most likely to be the one you were looking for.

The Phillips Sonicare Intelliclean system i8600.  This is the newest and greatest toothbruth on the market. Despite the price (Mine cost $120) this is without a doubt superior to any of its competitors.  It has the renowned patened sonic technology, only in the sonicare systems, and the intelliclean model is one step closer to daily flossing because it has a built in toothpaste dispeneser in the tip, and the toothpaste is specially formulated to shoot through the gaps in your teeth and clear any food particles (like flossing). Ive had mine for a month now and my teeth and gums are signifigantly better. This is the best toothbrush out!


Yes, this is homework help u dont need to restate the fact. If u dont know dont answer =)

Acceleration due to gravity (NOT change in acceleration), which could also be described as change in velocity.  That's assuming no air resistance.  If there is air resistance, they will eventually reach terminal velocity after which their velocity will be constant, but this is not implied by "free fall," and given that the question sounds like it's from a basic middle school or high school physics class I'm guessing you're supposed to ignore air resistance.


(Geometry)I want to know the volume sharing by the space above the plate(Z=0) and the space inside the sphere(x^2+y^2+z^2=1).

Don't know what grade you're in, but looks like this is gonna involve some integration.\nLet the intersection point of the plane be z=h(=0.5 in this case).\n\nConsider a thin disc of thickness dz in the volume to be evaluated, at a distance z from the origin. Obviously, z>h. It would have a radius of \nr = sqrt(R^2 - z^2). R is the radius of the sphere, =1 in this case.\n\nHence, the volume of this disc would be\ndV = 2*pi*r^2*dz\n   = 2*pi*(R^2-z^2)*dz\n\nHence, for total volume, this is going to have to be integrated between z=h to z=R.\n\nI believe this works out to \nV = 2*pi*((2R^3/3)-R^2h+h^3/3) here. Put in the values mentioned above.\n\nWhew!

my neighbor who is  a nurse told me that i think the state i live in can pay me because of this disability? i also have ADD and depression and she said they pay me for them.  is it true please help?

You can apply for SSDI (Social Security Disability) or SSI (Supplemental Security Income) by going to www.ssa.gov and filling out the application. In addition some states will give additional income to people who qualify for SSDI or SSI. You will probably need a lawyer to win your case, but the lawyers who take these cases will not charge you unless you win your case. If you are denied benefits on your first request, your lawyer will appeal it for you. If and when you win your case, your disibility lawyer will be paid a small percent out of your first initial lump sum payment. Make sure the lawyer you choose has experience in ss disibility law. Do not pay anyone for this service up front. Some of these lawyers advertise on tv. Look in the yellow pages of your phone book. You can also type www.socialsecurity and you might find a lawyer on one of those entries.


Two algorithms take n^2 days and 2^n seconds respectively to solve an instance of size n.What is the smallest instance on which the former algorithm outperforms the latter.approximately how long does such an instance take to solve.

n^2 days = 7.46x10^9*n^2 seconds, so the question is asking to find the smallest value of n such that \n7.46x10^9*n^2 < 2^n.  For the first approximation, find\n2^n > 7.46x10^9\nln(2^n) > ln(7.46x10^9)\nn > ln(7.46x10^9)/ln(2) = 33.\nBut n^2 = 33^2 = 1089, which is about 2^10, so second \napproximation is 33+10 = 43.\n7.46x10^9*(43)^2 = 1.38 x 10^13\n2^43 = 8.8 x 10^12, the second algorithm is still faster.\nTry 44,\n7.46x10^9*(44)^2 = 1.44 x 10^13 sec\n2^44 = 1.76 x 10^13 sec.\nSo the answer is 44, and the time is 44^2 = 1936 days

You can determine the speed of the car by measuring the time it takes to travel between mile markers on a highway. \nHow many seconds should elapse between two consecutive mile markers if the car's average speed is 65 mi/hr? \nWhat is the car's average speed if it takes 65 s to travel between the mile markers?

Without really going into formulae and calculations one can say that the answer for the first question is - a little less than one minute. For the second question - a little less than 60miles an hour.


may it be blind carbon copy or not?\ni don't very much understand it.\ncould anybody help me?

It does mean blind carbon copy.  Carbon copies used to be popular when handwriting receipts or with credit cards.  Similiar to when you write a check it leaves a copy underneath .  In email a cc means you are sending something to someone, but if you cc them you don't expect a response because the message isn't really to them its to the person in the message box, but the cc informs the other person of the information being sent.  A BCC does the same thing as a CC, but it does not share that email address with the original recipient or anyone else for that matter.
