As you know that 1000 ml is 1 litre, 1000 meter is 1 kilo meter, 1000 gram is 1 kilo gram. but why we calculate 60 seconds for 1 minute !! and 60 minutes for 1 hour. Who invented this calculation methode.

This all dates back to the Ancient Babylonians who liked to count in base 60. Ratios of 6, 12, 60, and 360 were seen by them as being 'round' numbers in the same way that we use base 10 and see 5, 10, 100 etc as useful numbers to divide things up into. \n\nSee: http://www-groups.dcs.st-and.ac.uk/~history/ HistTopics/Babylonian_and_Egyptian.html \n\nThe Babylonians divided the sky into the 12 signs of the Zodiac, and a circle into 360 degrees. They divided the day and night each into 12 hours (although in many time systems the lengths of these varied between summer and winter! Babylon was rather nearer the equator than Liverpool, so they didn't get too confused with this). The hour was split into 60 minutes and a minute into 60 seconds. \n\nAll these numbers have survived for 4000 years, despite the fact that we have changed our numbering system to base 10! In England, when I was young, we still measured with feet, each divided into 12 inches. The Americans still do! [By the way, do you know where the mile comes from? It's Roman, not Babylonian!] \n\nThe year is nearly 360 days long and the Babylonians split it into 12 months. Other civilizations based their calendar on the moon and had 13 months. We still have problems with this today because Easter is based on the lunar calendar and migrates around the Julian calendar in a complex way. Chinese new year is still based on the Lunar calendar

I onced witnessed a creature, that was humanoid in appearance, but wasn't human. I thought I was seeing things of course, and no I wasn't on drugs and I'm not nuts. A few weeks later, a friend of mine was standing outside with me, and we were talking about nothing in particular, when I looked over toward the side of the house and I saw it again. I looked at my friend and he had been looking in the same direction and he had a look on his face, well like he had seen a ghost. I asked him "did you see that," and he said yes. Then without telling him what I saw I asked him to describe it, and to my surprise he described it perfectly. It was very pale, if not white and had large black areas on it's face where it's eyes should have been, I'm not sure if they were just big black eyes of just very sunken in and appeared dark because of that. The creature was very thin and had long skinny fingers. It's mouth was lipless and it had no ears. I assure you I am being totally serious about this.

I am interested. Set up a video survailence, but be sure to hide it somewhere discreet, but make sure it covers the area. Go to the same place again or something and record it when this alien comes.\n\nEmail me at Digitalpimp0101@yahoo.com if you find anything else.\n\nAlso did the alien look like this? ::\n\nhttp://images.theglobeandmail.com/archives/RTGAM/images/20031119/wjack1/jackson_done2.jpg\n\n                       OR \n\nhttp://www.alienshift.com/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderpictures/.pond/gray_alien_50yrs_of_denial.jpg.w300h243.jpg

My friend has herpes and she's having sex with a lot of guys.Can she give herpes to them even using protection?And is it wrong for me to tell the guys that she herpes??

Absolutely she can give it to them.  Condom boxes even have warnings on them for that.  She can also transmit it through oral sex.  Whether its wrong for you to tell the guys about her condition depends on your relationship w/ the guys.  Are they related to you or have you known them a long time?  If not, then I would say no, stay out of it because it could be misconstrued as slander from you or gossiping.  The friend needs to grow up and do whats right herself and tell the guys.  She obviously has more problems than she can handle as it is since you specify "guys" as in more than one which is probably how she got it in the first place.  As a friend, you should strongly encourage her to get both medical and psychiatric help for the 2 problems.  Give her emotional support but otherwise stay out of it.


I want actually to know how depletion regions r being affected because of d regenerative process of increasin alphas that leads to d increase in anode current and this process continues to happen until thyristor is driven to the on state.

I have been taught by my old-timer physics teacher that an SCR is a diode with an insulating space between the P and N layers.  This insulating space is the gate.  An electric field exists when no voltage is applied to the gate, keeping the forward-biased diode from conducting.  But a small current injected into the gate breaks down the field keeping the diode off.  An avalanche between the P and N junctions then commences and the SCR is ON.  The feild cannot reestablish itself until the SCR is REVERSE biased and the gate current is brought to Zero.

What is fire?\nTell me everything about it.

For the most part, fire is a mixture of hot gases. Flames are the result of a chemical reaction, primarily between oxygen in air and a fuel, such as wood or propane. In addition to other products, the reaction produces carbon dioxide, steam, light, and heat. If the flame is hot enough, the gases are ionized and become yet another state of matter: plasma.

An Internet "troll" is a person who delights in sowing discord on the Internet. He (and it is usually he) tries to start arguments and upset people.\n\nTrolls see Internet communications services as convenient venues for their bizarre game. For some reason, they don't "get" that they are hurting real people. To them, other Internet users are not quite human but are a kind of digital abstraction. As a result, they feel no sorrow whatsoever for the pain they inflict. Indeed, the greater the suffering they cause, the greater their 'achievement' (as they see it). At the moment, the relative anonymity of the net allows trolls to flourish.\n\nWhen you try to reason with a troll, he wins. When you insult a troll, he wins. When you scream at a troll, he wins. The only thing that trolls can't handle is being ignored.


What are the advantages and disadvantages of the two systems? Why isn't there one standard only?

well, these systems are different for historical reasons - something was decided on as a standard in one part of the world and something else, at the same time, in a different part of the world.  it's just like driving on the right vs. left.. they're different, and incompatible, and it's a massive pain in the rectum.\n\nbut like driving, changing either system over to the other requires overcoming a massive amount of social inertia and a huge infrastructure cost - everyone would have to replace their appliances/cars, power-distribution systems/traffic signals would all have to be replaced.  and because of the nature of these systems, you cannot "phase in" a change - it would all have to switch at the same time in one ugly go.\n\nfunctionally there is no real difference in using 50 or 60 hz.  \n\nhowever, a different voltage has its advantages and disadvantages.  240V distribution is considerably less safe than 120V - get across 120V and you can be electrocuted for sure, but it's far far more dangerous to be electrocuted by 240V.  so safety is one factor that favors a lower voltage.\n\non the other hand, for a fixed requirement of energy usage, a higher voltage will require a lower current.  this is easy to see if you look at the equation for power in an electric circuit, P = VI.  double the voltage and you halve the current.  \n\nthey tell you not to plug a lot of energy-hungry appliances into a single outlet because doing so increases the amount of current that flows through your household wiring - too much can cause the wire to get hot and melt, possibly starting a fire and certainly causing costly damage.  so a higher voltage power distribution system will be generally cheaper (less current = smaller wires = less material costs - this is part of the reason that long-distance transmission lines are stepped up to 120 kV) and less prone to failures from overloading.  so that is an argument that lends itself to choosing a higher voltage.\n\nso, both have their ups and downs - ultimately i think the choice is pretty arbitrary, but the different standards are going to cripple any movement towards a global society.

my husband has "flash anger"--he's very passive aggressive--he let's everything build up and then he starts breaking things/knocking over chairs and sometimes have put holes in the walls. he's never hit me however, i need to know if there are any good books out there that deal with this kind of inner/outer aggression.

Find a good therapist.  A psychologist would be a good person to talk to.  Check with your insurance provider to see whick doctors they'll take and start calling those doctors.  His issue might not be anger, but a manifestation of anxiety.


perfect circle with dry skin in center size of pen top

this sounds like it could be whats called a ring worm , no it is not actually a worm ! its is a type of fungus however that is highly contagiouse ,you sould take your baby to the doctor because this well only grow bigger and if the area is in the scalp your child will require a special shampoo , if the spot is on some other area of the body you can purchase antifungal shaves that well help to heal the area , but it is safest to check with you doctor to first be sure that it is ring worm , and second to know if its safe to use an over the counter med . on your baby .   these are very common among children ! if you child is in day care its very posiable that this is where this could have came from , also you can contract them from your pets , and in rare cases dirt.  i hope i helped you and your little one !

Why is everything in english and spanish, they are in our country they should learn English, not us learn spanish. The other day I saw a car with a huge mexico flag drapped over a car, how disrespectful is that?\n\nI am tired of illegal immigrants abusing the welfare system. My aunt has had welfare for 22 years, she has her own business and still milking this state and this nation.\n\nI am hispanic and I am glad that I was raised the appropriate way. My mother was damned if I was going to be another statistic of parents taking advantage of the system. My mother and father came here the wrong way but they received their Permanent Staus immediately. Some people have lived here for 70 yrs. and do not know one lick of english, and all because we cater to them. What do you think?

Because they are the second greatest amount of voters.  Another I heard that immigrants can vote as well, I could be wrong but sometimes I feel like a minority.  Something else I heard was that raises are based on more than just senority but as well as well as speaking Spanish.  Myself personally I do not feel I should have to learn it.  I agree with you in retrospect; I go places sometimes and I ask a question of the person in the store or what not and they tell me how they dont speak english very well.  Damn it.........I wish sometimes that I could leave sometimes but this is my home.  Mexicans already have a home to go to. \n\n\nIn my city they come out every day in the morning and stand on the street corners looking for work.   Alot of them get it too.....When I am looking for a job I wish I could just go out and stand on the corner and get picked up.  No I have to go and file applications and pay taxes and take drug tests and provide criminal records.  Man I can see why they like it here so much.\n\nAll that said..... U just have to do like me and most people and except the fact that like u said as long as we cater to them they will keep coming here and taking jobs and healhtcare that people were born here have trouble getting.\n\nBy the way u would think after 9/11/2001 they would do something about the border problem but hey maybe next time right.  I would think that is a major part of homeland security.


Inventor of Luminol\n\nIn 1895, two scientists named Wiedemann and Schmid, dissolved cathode-ray irriaded alkali halides such as NaCl, NaBr, KCl, and KBr, in water.  They noticed a very weak bluish light.  They also detected light production when irriaded calcium carbonate was “attacked” by aqueous hydrochloracetic acid, or phosphoric acid4.\n\nLater in 1928, a chemist by the name of Albrecht discovered a specific chemical, that when placed in an aqueous alkaline solution emitted a blue-green light with a fair amount of intensity.  Along with the light, virtually no heat was produced.  This solution contained hydrogen peroxide along with a catalyst.  The catalyst was an alkaline medium with a pH between ten and eleven.  This specific chemical was to later on be called luminol.


i had converted a mpeg file to gif , its 8mbs in size but i want to lower the file size so that i cud use it in a website ...........

Did you take a movie and converted into an animated gif? If it is, there's a few ways to lower the file size.\n\n1. You can decrease the size of the gif. If it's 250x250, you can try resizing it to 200x200.\n2. You can remove frames. Instead of 12 fps(frame per second) try 10 fps.\n3. You can lower the number of colors. Gifs files store up to 256 colors on its palette.

I was speeding in an industrial area.  Clocked for 9 over the limit.  I am trying to discover my options on how to settle this without points on my license.  I'm not disputing guilt,  but I have a clean driving record which spans 35 years.

Check with the city of Layton to see if they offer a traffic class.  In lieu of going to court, most cities will off you a Plea In Abeyance.  It's essentially entering a guilty plea, paying a reduced fine, and agreeing to go to traffic class.  You will have to pay for the traffic class seperately from the ticket amount.  If you take the class then the points don't appear on your license.  If you don't take the class, then you have to pay the full amount of the ticket and the points will be put on your license.  \n\nIt's annoying to get a ticket but the class isn't too painful and it helps to brush up on your driving knowledge.  Good luck and happy driving!

I am 42, husband is 49. If one of us dies we want to be able to pay off a new home we are purchasing and any other major debt. I've seen whole life, term, level term, 10, 20, 30 year term. It's all so confusing.

Discuss your situation with a competent financial planner in your area. Do not trust anyone who tells you how much insurance you need without asking you any questions. Avoid insurance salespeople, especially ones who use a multiple of your salary approach.\n\nA good financial planner will complete a survivorship analysis for you. He/she will ask you alot of questions regarding your current financial situation and after making certain assumptions regarding rates of return and inflation, will be able to calculate your family's overall need for assets at your passing and how much of that need would be offset by assets you would have on hand. Don't forget to tell your advisor about any savings or investments you have as well as all life insurance in force, including employer provided. If there is more than enough assets already available, you do not need any additional life insurance, if not, consider purchasing more.\n\nThere is a widespread belief that term insurance is the only worthwhile way to insure oneself. This may not be the case. Term insurance is typically very inexpensive when compared to permanent forms of insurance (whole life, universal life, variable universal life, etc.) but it is important to remember that those term premiums will rise somewhere down the road. Approximately 90% of term policies never pay a death benefit, mainly due to the fact that they became too expensive to keep in force. Term insurance falls into two basic types, Yearly Renewable and Level. Yearly Renewable Term (YRT) premiums start very low. As each policy aniversary passes, your premium goes up. Each year you get older the resulting increase is a little bit larger than the previous year. It makes sense if you look at it from the insurance company's perspective; each year older you get is one year less you have left to live. Level Term will have a certain period where the premiums will remain level, usually 10, 20 or even 30 years. The longer the guarantee period the higher the premiums will be, but they will remain at the initial premium amount for the guarantee period. I prefer Level Term for my clients who need term coverage because it is a much more predictable amount to budget.\n\nPermanent insurances, while requiring higher premiums, also build a cash value, on a tax advantaged basis. If the policy is designed properly, it can make a good savings vehicle for LONG TERM investing goals. As with any important decision, the most important aspect is to get the advice of a competent, trusted professional.

I live with my dad at home and he smokes a lot.  He doesn't believe secondhand smoke is dangerous and I'm about to ring his neck with his ignorance.  He doesn't smoke directly around the baby but maybe an hour or two before the baby gets to my house.  I'm thinking that the smoke in the clothes and resin or tar on the toys are bad.

well it is true the child would end up with health problems such as lungs and breathing problems and it is more danger on the child than the one who is smoking.


There's many security companies out there, and they all do the same thing, secure. What you have to keep in mind is that only so many people need such services, and there's an abundant availability.\n\nSo what makes you different than the rest? \n\nSome ideas are to understand laws, and make sure your officers do, weapon licenses don't hurt anything, having superior training to your competitors (kick boxing, MMA, Escrima for night sticks, etc.) \n\nAlso, being more dedicated, or even having more reasonable prices. Once you do that, you'll probably need some sort of business license and some sort of headquarters if you get to be large enough to need a dispatch. I don't know the exact laws here in NC, but this should give you some idea.

Ya Know?It's like it was put in an electric Dryer and just shrivelled Up.

your nuts need to be kept at a certain temperature - slightly less than the normal temperature of 98.6  Too hot or too cold, and your sperm lose their ability to make babies.\n\nSo your body automatically controls the temperature of your nuts by letting 'em hang loose or reelin' 'em in, depending on whether its hot or cold.  When they're reeled in, your sac looks like a walnut, and  when they're hanging loose, it looks like a sock filled with sand.\n\nOn a hot July day, lay down on your bed and you grab a small mirror.  You can see that your nuts are moving all over the place without you controlling them.  That's your body regulating temperature.\n\nOf course, on a cold winter day, your body is regulating temperature too, but you can't see the movement as easily.\n\nPersonally, I prefer when they're hangin' loose.  They're more fun that way.\n\n\nHANG LOOSE, BRO.

same time another strand can also work as template but no why

No, different genes are coded starting on different strands. However, one strand must be used for one protein; they cannot both be used, because RNA polymerase binds to a start codon and then must procede in the 5' to 3' direction.

I'm scared of sharkes.  Is it safe to swim in the ocean when your menistrating?  Does the human blood attact sharks, or are sharkes only attracted to fish blood?\n\nIs it safe to go into the water?

Sharks have two senses that many animals do not have:\n\nElectroreception: The Ampullae of Lorenzini are small pits in the head that detect electricity. The shark has the greatest electricity sensitivity known in all animals. This sense is used to find prey hidden in sand in bottom feeding sharks, by detecting the nerve impulses. It is this sense that sometimes confuses a shark into attacking a boat: when the metal interacts with salt water, sharks can detect the resultant electrical charge from over one mile away. \nLateral line - This system is found in most fishes, including sharks. It is used to detect motion or 'sound' in the water. The shark uses this to detect other organisms moving, especially wounded fish. The shark can 'hear' frequencies in the range of 25 to 50 Hz using this sense.\n\nHOW TO SWIM WITH SHARKS: A PRIMER \nVoltaire Cousteau\n\n\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\nForward\n\nActually, nobody wants to swim with sharks. It is not an acknowledged sport and it is neither enjoyable nor exhilarating. These instructions are written primarily for the benefit of those, who, by virtue of their occupation, find they must swim and find that the water is infested with sharks.\n\nIt is of obvious importance to learn that the waters are shark infested before commencing to swim. It is safe to say that this initial determination has already been made. If the waters were infested, the naïve swimmer is by now probably beyond help; at the very least, he has doubtless lost any interest in learning how to swim with sharks.\n\nFinally, swimming with sharks is like any other skill: It cannot be learned from books alone; the novice must practice in order to develop the skill. The following rules simply set forth the fundamental principles which, if followed will make it possible to survive while becoming expert through practice.\n\nRules\n\nAssume all unidentified fish are sharks. Not all sharks look like sharks, and some fish that are not sharks sometimes act like sharks. Unless you have witnessed docile behavior in the presence of shed blood on more than one occasion, it is best to assume an unknown species is a shark. Inexperienced swimmers have been badly mangled by assuming that docile behavior in the absence of blood indicates that the fish is not a shark. \nDo not bleed. It is a cardinal principle that if you are injured, either by accident or by intent, you must not bleed. Experience shows that bleeding prompts an even more aggressive attack and will often provoke the participation of sharks that are uninvolved or, as noted above, are usually docile. \nAdmittedly, it is difficult not to bleed when injured. Indeed, at first this may seem impossible. Diligent practice, however, will permit the experienced swimmer to sustain a serious laceration without bleeding and without even exhibiting any loss of composure. This hemostatic reflect can, in part, be conditioned, but there may be constitutional aspects as well. Those who cannot learn to control their bleeding should not attempt to swim with sharks, for the peril is too great. \nThe control of bleeding has a positive protective element for the swimmer. The shark will be confused as to whether or not his attack has injured you and confusion is to the swimmer's advantage. On the other hand, the shark may know he has injured you and be puzzled as to why you do not bleed or show distress. This also has a profound effect on sharks. They begin to question their own potency or, alternatively, believe the swimmer to have supernatural powers.\n\nCounter any aggression promptly. Sharks rarely attack a swimmer without warning. Usually there is some tentative, exploratory aggressive action. It is important that the swimmer recognize that this behavior is a prelude to an attack and takes prompt and vigorous remedial action. The appropriate countermove is a sharp blow to the nose. Almost invariably this will prevent


Actually, the word gothic is from the medieval era, and it was used to describe the poorly lit and seemingly foreboding architechure of new churches. I.e., the black clothes of a "goth" are dark and a little creepy.


Sunday-thursday you go to sleep at 9:00 PM and wake up at 6:00 AM. Friday and sturday you go to sleep at 2:00 AM and wake up at 12:00 PM?

Well, yes. But there are a lot of people that do it when they go out weekends. Try my work schedule. I work tue-thurs 8am-4pm and fri/sat from 11pm to 7am!\nI'm all messed up!! Seems you should be getting enough sleep though. Nine hours weekdays and ten hours on the weekend is pretty good! If thats a regular pattern bodies tend to adjust after while.


its just i wonder most specially on chat.. some ppl used a lot of nicks.. i dont know why?

No there aren't any listing of how many different IDs each person has. People usually creat different nicks to track different sets of friends or to pretend to be different people each time.

If someone gets a sex change, does the new component work? I mean, sexually speaking, and for the person who gets it? Cause really, an artificial wang looks nice and real and all but you can't really synthesize nerve endings and what-not, right?

well i know someone that had a sex change and it does work as far as getting hard he just cant cum or anything. and i also have a brother that has had a sex change and is now my sister and his wanky is gone and i can tell you that that is also the same its not absolutely the same. he said the feeling is not that strong and as for lubrication it just doesnt work for that. so even though it looks real it is not the same as a real mans. but to answer the question no i would say that it does not work sexually for them cause why do it and not have any feeling when you are having sex it is pointless. you know?

Well, I'm a scientist harboring a moderate liberal social philosophy, and a none-too-liberal economic philosophy.

I've just stumbled across some pretty disturbing posts on here.  One gentleman was unaware that hte Earth wasn't the center of the solar system.  Another questioned whether or not Hitler should be removed from power, and another blatantly claimed that diseases like AIDS and SARS (originating, he claims from Africa and Asia) are designed to rid the world of 'skum'.  Having entrenched myself in academia, gimpsing such views by 'the common man' is shocking.  Is this really the way the American people think?


think of a cone first. then you are cutting of the conical part of it. i.e cut a smaller cone out of the bigger one. Now, how do you find the volume of the left over part.any formula?\n\nDon't say that you will take a tumbler(somewhat resembles a cone whose conical part is cut and sealed from there.) and fill it with water and then find the volume of it.

well, the formula for the volume of a cone is 1/3 * base * height.\n\nthe trick to doing this is to find the volume of the large cone, then subtract the volume of the small cone.  what's leftover will be the tumbler-shaped volume.  plug in numbers for the height and base for both the large and small cones, and then subtract. voila!


Some purr when I do this, but I've been bit too.

I am not too sure what it is you are asking...


I'm in college, it's my first year, I want to become a coach in the National Football League (NFL). I know it will take time, A LOT, but I want to find out more on how to get to my dream. What are the steps, what are the best qualifacations, how much can I expect to to earn in my early years as a coach or a cordinator, ect. What courses am I requiered to take in college along the way?

While there are strategies on and off the field to learn, this is a people business.  Knowing how to communicate to people to motivate them to achieve their best is what you want to focus on.\nDo your homework by finding out where the current and recent past coaches came from.  Find the name of every coach for every team in the NFL over the last 10 years.  Find out what their backgrounds were.  Did they start as players?  Coach college first?  Find the coach(es) that you want to embrace as role models, not for their winning record, but for their ability to get the job.  A background you can relate to and emulate.  Start with coaching right now.  City league football or YMCA or HS asst. coach.  Try private schools since they're not a govt. agency they may be easier to get started with.  There's nothing like doing it to learn to do it.  You have to be able to asst. coach HS before you can asst coach college ball.  You have to understudy a good college head coach before you can be a College Head Coach.  If you can't with a college team, you won't be going to the NFL.  You have to prove yourself so you might as well get started.  Degrees and resume qualifications won't get you the job.\n\nThis is a relationship based business.  Start placing yourself in correct environment to initiate, build and nurture those relationships.  Look on the sidelines and find out who's there and who they work for.  Relentlessly pursue the job that puts you on the sidelines.  Read "The 21 Indisputable Laws of Leadership" by John Maxwell.  Get a hold of the team chaplin and volunteer to help him with anything, making copies, running errands, anything.  Don't take "no" for an answer.  Don't be annoying, be persistant.  Did I mention to refine your people skills?\n\nGo for it!

its easy to get really down about love, i would love to hear some encouraging true stories. how'd you meet your spouse? what was a really cool way you met someone special? or a really crazy date?

I don't know if this will help at all but I know there are two stories I'd like to share first one is I was in canada not to long ago and this girl spoke to me in french ... not to well may I say but she pointed to her camera so I was like ok she wants me to take her picture so I did so and at the end she said thank you in french but and I responded with your welcome wich got her off gaurd and she was like hey you speak enlish and I'm like americans tend to speak that and then we talked for like an hour then we agree to meet up later and well I don't need to discuss later needless to say she's back in australia. Another story. I had just move to hollywood  ..... like 6 months ago lol and I saw this girl and I was like wow she's absolutely gorgeous I mean she wasn't in todays standard but I thought she was she had really short hair ... shorter than mine like 1/4 of an inch and this really cute smile and I saw her with this camera and I thought of going up to her and saying something but I was to nervous so a minute later she walked up to me which was a suprise but she came up and asked me if she could take my picture and I was like yeah sure where do you want me we talked for a little while and then I asked her out to eat if she wasn't busy so we went to dennys ... jsut to find out she's vegan haha. but we talked for like 3 hours and sadly I found out she was moving to oregon in a couple of days and then after that back home to chicago but although we only spent one night talking I think she has ment more to me than any girl I've ever dated and we didn't even date haha but if she had asked me to move to oregon with he I would of. any way hope it helps Mike

... indicates two events that took place where Jesus seems to have 'lost faith'. once in the garden at mount olive where he asks God to " remove this cup ", then on the cross when he asks why he has been " forsaken ". is there another interpretation for this?

I am not a theologian.  However, I see these two events separately.  In the garden, Jesus demonstrated that he was fully human when he asked to be spared what was coming.  It was not a lapse of faith; it was pure human desire to escape the cruel suffering and death ahead of him, which he foreknew as part of his divine nature.  I personally think it takes real faith to speak to God about our deepest fears rather than trying to hide them under a false facade of bravado in obedience.  Jesus did what had to be done as an expression of his faith, even though his humanity feared the pain and the misery.\nOn the cross, he felt forsaken, because at that moment all the sin of all the people lay on him.  God could not look at sin, and it was the first time in Jesus' life that God's presence was lost to him.  Who wouldn't cry out?  It is not a denial of his divine foreknowledge, but it does express the reality of what he did.  It wasn't a show.  He really took my sins and yours to the cross, and he bore the shame and punishment that should have been mine and yours.  The real punishment of hell is separation from God, and that moment of separation is what we refer to in the Apostles Creed when we say "he descended into hell."


At the time when pyramids were built the science was not advanced at all so how did they manage to built such a huge monument?Then people say that aliens from other world built them and also some proofs are found so I want to know more about it.

aliens did not buit the pyramids simply because there is no aliens!!\nthe science at the ancient Egeptians was not that much advanced, but architecture was good enough to build the pyramids.\nby the way, the latest theory about who built the pyramids is that it has been built by rich people who are the only guyz to have such "honor", not by slaves as they used to think


Xmas (or X-mas) is an abbreviation for Christmas. It is derived from the word ΧΡΙΣΤΟΣ, transliterated as Christos, which is Greek for Christ. Greek is the language in which the whole New Testament was written. \n\nOriginally, in "Xmas", X represented the Greek letter χ. It was pronounced with a hard [kh], which is the first letter of Christ's name in Greek. However, because of the modern interpretations of the letter X, many people do not know this and assume that this abbreviation is meant to drop Christ from Christmas as a means of secularization or a vehicle for political correctness. \n\nThe occasionally seen belief that the X represents the cross Christ was crucified on has no basis in fact; St Andrew's Cross is X-shaped, but Christ's cross was probably shaped like a T or a †. Indeed, X-as-chi was associated with Christ long before X-as-cross could be. The use of X as an abbreviation for cross in modern abbreviated writing (e.g. "Kings X" for "Kings Cross") may have reinforced this assumption. \n\nIn ancient Christian art χ and χρ (Chi Ro--the first two letters in Greek of Christos) are abbreviations for Christ's name. In many manuscripts of the New Testament and icons, X is an abbreviation for Christos, as is XC (the first and last letters in Greek, using the lunate sigma); compare IC for Jesus in Greek. The Oxford English Dictionary documents the use of this abbreviation back to 1551, 50 years before the first English colonists came to North America and 60 years before the King James Version of the Bible was completed. At the same time, Xian and Xianity were in frequent use as abbreviations of "Christian" and "Christianity". \n\nThe abbreviation is widely but not universally accepted; some view it as demeaning to Christ, whilst others find it helpful to use in text messages and emails to save space. Similarly, Xianity is sometimes used as the abbreviation for Christianity (although this usage is much less common than "Xmas"). This usage has extended to "xtal" for "crystal", and on florists' signs "xant" for "chrysanthemum" (though these words are not etymologically related to "Christ" — crystal comes from a Greek word meaning "ice", and chrysanthemum from a Greek word meaning "golden flower", while Christ comes from a Greek word meaning "anointed").

avery thing on the earth needs food for his growth what is food of mountains for his growth.

WHAT?!?! you've never heard of mountain food? yeah!! they've got four main food groups, like we have 6. There's are: Rocks, Dwarfs (sometimes, but rarely as a treat, a mountain will swallow up a dwarf.), Magma, and Snow. (Only certain mountains eat snow... only the tallest ones, if its tall, only then can it handle the nutritional content of snow.)\n\nYou can't see a mountain eat, cause it eats stuff like a way a frog breathes, it just seeps it in through the sides. Also in the very center of the Mountain where the tummy is, you can fall in and it will either digest you if your food, or just let u sit there, and eventually you'd prolly get bored of falling into its stomach and die. Mountains have such a high metabolism that after it eats the food, it barely has enough energy to grow at all! Have you ever seen rivers come from the mountains? Look on a map. Those river sources start in the mountains, that is actually the Mountains waste product. \n\nI hope I could help!

need answers quick its a huge project!!!!!!!

About 25 minutes. The average shower head puts out about 5 liters per minute which is roughly 5 quarts. So 30 gallons would take about 25 minutes. Of course it depends upon the actual water flow which can vary from 4 liters per minute to 7.5 liters per minute.


im in 10th garde and i need a detailed answer\nthank you

Actually Einstein predicted the Big Bang before Hubble found the first observational evidence.\n\nEinstein found that in his theory of General Relativity that the universe as a whole should be either expanding or contracting. He didn't like this so he added an extra term the "cosmological constant" to balance the equations and have a universe that was not expanding or contracting. That sort of static universe was what was expected in those days.\n\nMeanwhile, Edmund Hubble began making observations in the 1920s from the Mt Wilson Observatory of distant "nebulae." He had discovered previosuly that many of this faint blobs, previously thought to be gas clouds, were in fact galaxies like our own Milky Way. This was a big surprise since previosuly the Milky Way was the only galaxy, or what they called at the time, an "island universe."\n\nSo, it was natural for Hubble to look at the spectra of some of these distant galaxies. What he found was that, except for a couple of very nearby galaxies like M-31 the Andromeda Galaxy, all the other galaxies had shifted spectra. That is, these other galaxies has spectra which were redshifted, indicating that they were moving away from us.\n\nFurther he found that the fainter galaxies (which on average are farther away) had the largest redshifts. This lead to the famous "Hubble's Law" that says that the observed redshift is proportional to the distance a galaxy is from us.\n\nEinstein found out about Hubble's discovery and realized what it meant - the whole universe is expanding. Although naively it looks like everything is moving away from us, all of space is expanding, so that an observor in any galaxy would detect the same thing - that every galaxy is moving away from them.\n\nThe usual analogy is to think of rasins in rasin bread. As the bread rises all the dough (space) expands, so the distance between all rasins (galaxies) grows. Thus from any one rasin (galaxy) all the rest look like they are moving away.\n\nEinstein realized that his "cosmological constant" was unneccessary. He famously called it his "greatest blunder" and that he could have officially predicted the expansion of the universe before Hubble confirmed it with observations. (And in fact, before Hubble's discovery, other scientists like Willem de Sitter and Alexander Friedmann used the equantions of General Relativity to calculate an expanding universe.) \n\nAt that point it was realized that if space is expanding that in the past it must have been all bunched up in one spot. Just before Hubble Georges Lemaître realized this and thought that at first there was some sort of "primaval atom" from which everything else came from.\n\nFred Hoyle didn't like Lemaitre's idea at all, not the least of which was because Lemaitre insisted that God started the whole thing. Hoyle developed a rival theory the Steady State universe, and dismissed the other type of ideas as a "hot big bang." Of course Hoyle's term, meant as a put-down, became the offical name. (Hoyle's Steady State Theory was a serious rival to the Big Bang until the 1960s and the discovery of the microwave background.)\n\nIt wasn't until 1948 that the modern aspects of the Big Bang were proposed by George Gamow and Ralph Alpher. These guys showed that from an initial explosion of compressed everything one would get the correct mixture of hydrogen and helium and other trace elements observed in the whole universe. That is, if one starts from a hot subatomic, compressed mixture and lets it go, it will recombine into the right ratio of atoms. (Right being the ration actually observed.)\n\nAnd so it goes from there, to much more observational evidence for the Big Bang, as well as lots of theoretical progress. At the moment we know that the old cyclical idea, that the universe expands and then contracts, is wrong. In fact the universe seems to be accelerating, tha

The Detroit Red Wings would seem like an obvious pick, but in the Western Conference the last few playoffs, low seeded teams have seemed to done well (especially those with great second-half runs) teams such as Anaheim in 2003 or Calgary in 2004 make me think a low seed will come out of the West. \nHowever, that said, I think an Eastern team will win it and am going to have to go with Ottawa


I have some web pages on my computer that I want to share with the world.  I want to publish them to the web using my pc as a server.  What do I have to do?

You need to install a web server such as IIS (Internet Information Services) on your PC in order that you can host these pages.  You also need to have, at minimum, a static IP address or better a domain name, so that you can direct people to your site.  \n\nIf you have never built a website before you are going to need some kind of tutorial to walk you through.\n\nHowever, once you expose your PC to the internet in this way, you need to be aware that there plenty of people out there from the 'dark side' who will take great delight in trying to hack it.  Think very carefully before making your PC a web server.


I am still fine for now, but I do have slight headache and very2 minor fever after three days and now I feel itchy (But no pustules has erupt, yet).\nI really really really cannot afford to be in bed for 2 weeks.\nWhat can I do to prevent it from breaking up all over me?\n\nCan I get a shot or sth?\nPS: I have checked many websites. so please don't give me another one because they pretty much does not address my question. And If any of you a doctor, I would appreciate it for you to give me some thoughts.

There is a shot for the chicken pox, unfortunately it's a vaccine that you take to avoid getting them. Once you get them, you got them. Try bathing in Aveeno (available at walmart) to help with the itching to possibly avoid many eruptions, and take Tylenol or Advil for the headache and fever. Try not to scratch, it only makes matters worse.


I have a tv connected to Directv satellite dish and i get flickering channel- picture keeps flickering

The blocks are called "digitizing".  Thats caused by an almost low enough signal to lose it all together.  It can be caused by the dish not being pointed properly, bad fittings or wiring, or something in the way between your dish and the satellite in space.  You need to try aiming it better before anything else and get your signal strength into the 90's.  you won't get 100 on most transponders so don't go nuts trying to.  If you cannot raise the signal strength the problem is in the wiring or some piece of equipment is going bad.\n\nRight now try the cable that goes to "Satellite In" on the back of your receiver, that could also be loose. Should be finger tight and nothing inside the fitting such as wire mesh from the cable or lint.


we r married 2 years. we love each other more thna anything else. but i m a sexadict and she is a sex-as-usual. she wants to stisfy me but she just doesn't get aroused as much i do. how can we make each other happy?

Some women think they should only have sex if they are feeling aroused. But the truth is, as she goes about  her day-to-day life, she might not think about sex all that much. So when you ask for sex, she won't be in the mood. Instead, try asking if you can snuggle, kiss, or give her a backrub. Make sure she knows that you won't have sex if she doesn't want to. After fifteen minutes of affection, you can ask if she'd like to have sex. She might be more interested at that point. \n\nTo be fair, you can also try to turn down your sex drive a bit. Try to spend a little less time thinking about sex or looking at things that make you horny. Instead, work on a hobby or spend time with your friends.

I am afriad to go to sleep. What is this condition called?

Fear of sleep is called "somniphobia". (In response to the later answer, insomnia is the inability to sleep, not the fear of sleep.)


I believe you should definately pray about it, define what area of ministry you want to get into and location you might be interested in serving at, get guidance from your local Bible college or from church.  Search the internet postings, search in google "ministry jobs" or something like that.  Be patient, persistent, passionate and believe in your call, and ultimately that God who called you will show you the way. Even if you start as a volunteer or intern, do it, get yourself out there and start serving.

Try to find a way to work it all out. Maybe your bf could help with the moving expenses. Surly your parents have some money saved up, they could pitch in. You could always get different jobs, in a different field. You could visit one or the others parents, instead of moving them around.


I think there's someting fishy about the voting.  Like being able to "vote as often as you want".  People with the right equipment and knowledge can cast like thousands of votes per hour.  Also nowadays they rarely say how much votes each contestant is getting. it's all bogus


Brazil won Cup Juliette Rimet 3 times, therefore, by fifa'rule at the time, it became Brazil's own national propery (Pele in 1970). Brazil has won the new cup 2 times since then. If they win again this summer, what will happen? will the cup belong to them for good?

The Jules Rimet (not Juliette) trophy was the original prize for winning the World Cup. During World War II (1939-1945), the trophy was held by Italy (by virtue of their 1938 victory). Ottorino Barassi, an official of the Italian Football Federation, hid it from the Germans in a shoe-box under his bed. During a public exhibition just before the 1966 World Cup Final in England the trophy was stolen, but was found just seven days later.\n\nThe Brazilian team won the trophy in perpetuity in 1970, being rewarded for being the only team ever to have won three World Cups. However the cup was stolen again in 1983 and never recovered: it may have been smelted. The Brazilian Football Confederation commissioned a replica of their own, made of sterling silver with a gold plating and a blue base made of lapis lazuli.\n\nA replacement trophy, officially known as the FIFA World Cup, was designed and first presented to the winners of the 1974 World Cup. But this time around, FIFA is unlikely to give it away again: the winners of the tournament receive it in loan for four years and receive a replica to keep. It is not known whether FIFA will retire the trophy after all of the name plaques at the base are filled in; this will occur after the 2038 World Cup.


what type of reading text do they read.does reading help them to become more profesional?

Even if the students don't read regularly or daily, It is compulsary for the teachers to read daily! They can't stand in front of the student without preparing for their class! students are smarter now-a-days! My sis is a teacher! She sits with her subject book and papers every evening regularly to update her knowlege!\n   But if the teacher has been teaching the same subject for a pretty long time period, She/ he would have mastered the book and so need not spend much time reading!\n   They will read the books of the subject which they are handling! They read encyclopedias! Ofcourse reading again and again make them master the book and subject and so they become professionally talented!


I would like to check on the transfer of a piece of proprty we are connected with in Cottonwood County Minnesota. Is there a way to do it on the internet?

Cottonwood County does not have that information available online, but it is available at the County Assessor's office for cheaper than any online service. Their contact information is at the site below.


It is possible that NOT ALL Catholic priests are child-molesting perves, but do you think that since the trend has been going on for so long that there are perverted guys who chose to enter the priesthood for the sole purpose of gaining access to the young boys that are so often preyed upon?

No, the majority I think want to serve God.  The child molesting priest is an exception which we would all like to see removed from society regardless of profession.


This number was on my caller id and i need to know who it is.

This number belongs to a pay phone company who ownes pay phones in many states.  Each time someone uses one of their pay phones, the same number 415-656-1073 comes up on your caller ID, no matter what state they are calling from. \n\nThe main trunk line for this pay phone company is located in San Francisco CA, so each call that is made from one of their pay phones goes through that trunk line in CA, 415-656-1073, which shows up on your caller ID.


Not terribly long ago, I proposed a redesign of http://www.burkewhistles.com/ and provided a couple of prototypes - http://homepage.mac.com/unearthed/burke/ and http://homepage.mac.com/unearthed/burke/index2.html\n\nAs the original site is not well maintained (I am guessing due to a time contstraint), my goal for the prototype was to make it easy to maintain and functional.\n\nI was hoping for feedback on my redesign and for strategies on convincing someone that the small site approach might be better for their needs (the feedback that I got from the owner of the original site is that he wanted a site with all of the bells and whistles).\n\nThanks.

I like the first link, though only slightly more than the second.  Since you're asking for opinions, I found both pages to be too 'long'.  I found myself having to scroll quite a long time (relatively speaking) to get to the bottom, and that can be unattractive.  Try a more button based interface that lets visitors chose their own path through the site, not just be guided in such a linear fashion.  I think these prototypes need a little more polishing before you can convince someone to convert.  But yeah, they are still a vast improvement over the original.


i am cool and sexy all the girls want to touch my body!!!


1. nVidia 6600 GT\n2. nVidia 6800\n3. ATI x800\n4. ATI x700\n5. ATI x1300\n\nPlease rank them in order of their performance.\nI would loev to see if u have some graphs for the same.\nAnd should I take AGP or PCI(pci/pciE)...\nThe purpose is Gaming: BIG Time!\nThanx

First off, all the cards you listed will be able to handle any games you want to play, so it comes down to preference (nVidia vs. ATI) and what kind of budget you're working with.\n\nMore importantly, what kind of system do you own? What kind of mobo do you have? Is it even capable of holding AGP or PCI-E cards? If you have a PCI-E compatible motherboard, it might be in your best interest to go that route, for future upgradeability. However, most AGP cards are capable of powering any of todays games, and AGP is usually less $$ taxing than PCI-E. You'll probably want to stay away from any PCI cards, as they're almost obsolete, especially if all you want to do is play games.\n\nGiven the fact that I have no idea what kind of machine you're using, I can't really give an educated suggestion (sorry). As far as the cards listed go, the 6800 is a damn fine PCI-E card, for what it's worth.

In Biology class we were asked to pick a career and tell how it relates to science because my teacher says that every profession has science whether they know it or not

Every one of us who wakes up to an electronic alarm clock is affected by science, literally, from the moment that we open our eyes.

I cant understand these earthlings...\n\nWhy do they make children and then start winching about it, breaking up with partners cos of it, taking leave from work cos of the runny nose,  taking anti depressants cos of it - when son becomes junkie), cry about their childs low IQ when they smoked all through pregnancy, (filling the lungs of young ones with suffering) kick son's girlfriend out of the house cos she was not good enough for him (despite his low IQ mind you) and then DEMAND THAT he makes some children, so they can have grandchildren?....selfish world...where is the love? the love? the love? or is this love???


I've XP with 256 DDRAM and would like to double it to 512, is it safe to  install one more 256 stick or should I replace the 256 stick with a 512 stick. Could there be any conflict if i just add another 256 ? My computer has never ever crashed.

It depends on what kind of computer you have, but you can probably either add a 256 or replace with a 512.  If you're willing to buy a 512, then why not just add it to the 256 and make 768?  That's what I did with my wife's laptop and it's just fine.\n\nAre these DIMM's or SODIMM's?


I have watched that show for almost 15 years. And I'm only 27. But here lately, they've been ruining the story line of Marlena/John, that I don't like watching it anymore. But I like the rest of the story lines. My email is lipz0613@yahoo.com


Apatosaurus, often mistakenly refered to as Brontosaurus, is a genus of sauropod dinosaurs that lived about 140 million years ago, during the Jurassic period. They were some of the largest land animals that ever existed, about 4.5 metres (15 feet) tall at the hips, with a length of up to 25m (80 feet) and a mass up to 35 metric tonnes (40 tons). However, the Argentinosaurus was even larger.\n\nThe cervical vertebra and the bones in the legs were bigger and heavier than that of Diplodocus, but they both had the long neck and tail. The skull was first identified in 1975, a century after it got its name. The Apatosaurus had a claw on its hand, but only the thumb. Scientists have a theory about the tail being lifted perhaps a meter above the ground. It would prevent the dinosaur from stomping on it, and put the tail out of reach of predators.\n\n\nIn 1877, Othniel Charles Marsh published notes on his discovery of the Apatosaurus, and then in 1879 described another, more complete dinosaur — the Brontosaurus. In 1903, it was discovered that the apatosaur was in fact a juvenile brontosaur, and the name Apatosaurus, having been published first, was deemed to have priority as the official name; Brontosaurus was relegated to being a synonym. The name was not formally removed from the records of paleontology until 1974.


the one they have now really isn't that great because you can't even go into chat rooms with it. If you can't do that than whats the point? If you don't have any friends on your messenger or if there never on your messanger it's just as useful as a paper weight. I really hope theres a new version or theres one coming out soon.

There's not, there never will be... hopefully macintosh users will learn how to make their own yahoo client with the new features.\nThis seems most likely a case of bad business by an almost monopoly. If a certain company, let say "micro-hard" just so we dont take chances messing with potential danger, realizes that its largest competitor (apple) has better hardware and software than the computers that carry it software, one easy way to stay in business would be to pay many companies to make all software for the competing company inferior, as to make the customer believe that the computers by the competing company are inferior.\n\nI almost forgot to mention, if you think the mac version is bad, take a look at the unix version. poor thing is a crying shame. I guess Gates really does rule the world.


The psychologist is a co-worker. The woman becomes ill, has an emergency hysterectomy and no longer can have children.  Her husband is leaving her due to no more children. Psychologist approaches boss and tells boss that woman is suicidal and not fit to come to work.  The boss does not allow woman to return to work until psychologist feels she is fit to return.

If the information did not come about because of a patient-doctor relationship, then there is no confidentiality. However:\n\nWhat business does the doctor have telling the employer? If he's a doctor (co-worker) doing doctor work for her employer, then it would be odd if he wasn't in some way her doctor, and therefore obliged to treat her information with confidence.\n\nIf he was in some way her doctor, then he would be combining what he knew from doctor visits with what he know from the bar, and so spilling some part of confidential information.\n\nIf he had not treated her, but just had a bar conversation once upon a time with her, how qualified is he to judge her mental state, to the point where he would have her suspended/fired?\n\nOTOH, if you're sitting in a bar with someone, doctor or not, and they confess to you "sometimes I just feel like driving the loaded bus off the high point of the bridge, I'm so depressed", I would think you have an obligation to tell someone.\n\n"...until the psychologist feels she is fit to return to work."??? Now suddenly he IS her doctor until she's better? Having stuck his nose into the case and being an employee of one party and snitched on the other, he's hardly qualified to give an impartial judgement of her condition later.\n\nBesides, what happened to the Hippocratic oath of "...first, do no harm..." if he's getting her suspended?\n\nI would say MYOB is the first rule of a professional involved in a non-professional social situation. Unless she was a real danger to others (and explicitly said so) it's not up to the psychologist to butt in.\n\nOTOH, if someone said something that threatened the life or livelihood of others around her, ANYONE has an obligation to snitch unless there is a specific confidentiality in force.\n\nIf they simply threaten suicide themselves, you shouldn't tell anyone (except, say, her doctor who is obliged to keep it confidential) without their permission. telling the whole world will just make matters worse.


Michael, I would like to know if there is anyone else that has experience with this company. The OP's quesiton is not redundant. They are seeking more information, information I would like too.


During the day I hardly do any activities because I am just sitting in school. Everyday I realize that I am sweating under my arms. I use deodrant but it's not helping. What can I do to make the sweating go away? I have to wear sweaters everday so I won't get embarrassed.

I am not a doctor, but my sister once had this problem. I'll share with you what helped her.\n\nSo, the way my sister treated this was to find out what the cause of the sweating was. It turned out that her anxiety was causing it. Yes, anxiety about life and stuff in general (school, work, and so on). Do you think you are anxious often? It's a common cause of excessive sweating for people, but it's treatable.\n\nAnyway, the best thing you could do right now is get yourself in to see a doctor. You need a professional opinion to actually isolate the cause. Remember to do this! In the meantime, though, you could pick up some special talc from the supermarket, chemist, or other vendor. This product has cornstarch in it and is often used on babies. My sister tells me that this will stop most of your sweating, so go out with confidence and good luck!


my dad said get out of my way in a tone that made me very upset i thought real hard about how he said it and started balling i really need to hear something soon from someone that knows what i should do

Is this a normal reaction for you? If so, it could be one of the signs of depression (crying easily, mood swings, etc), and you should talk to your doctor and tell him how you feel. He might be able to prescribe you medication.\n\nIf it's not normal for you, it could be just female mood swings or PMS, or it could be related to other stress in your life. Do you have a lot going on right now? If so, try talking to someone older who you trust, maybe a school counselor or somebody from your church/job, etc.


is premature ejaculation a mental problem or can it be cured by taking pills.pls give me tips to overcome this problem cos i am getting scared

Maybe you are waiting too long before having sex.The more you have sex the longer you should be able to go before you ejaculate.As you get older and more experienced you should be able to go longer.Don't worry,a lot of men have this problem,you're not alone.It should get better with time and experience.Good luck.Actually I like jonnyboy's answer.


It's like "here comes Johnny, yeah again" or something.

If i'm thinking of the right commercial it's Lust For Life by Iggy Pop.


i asked because most boys are liars and they are always in in denial i just wish boys was to keep it real 100%.

That's the problem - boys... Not that when they become men it gets much better. But some mature. Get a good Christian man and your chances go up =)

We know its morning and evening, and I explained the time on the clock,  but we are looking for the words. Like GM stands for General Motors, CN means Cartoon Network...I think you get it :)

"“AM” stands for the Latin phrase Ante Meridiem —which means “before noon”—and “PM” stands for Post Meridiem : “after noon.” Although digital clocks routinely label noon “12:00 PM” you should avoid this expression not only because it is incorrect, but because many people will imagine you are talking about midnight instead. The same goes for “12:00 AM.” Just say or write “noon” or “midnight” when you mean those precise times. \n\nIt is now rare to see periods placed after these abbreviations: “A.M.” , but in formal writing it is still preferable to capitalize them, though the lower-case “am” and “pm” are now so popular they are not likely to get you into trouble. \n\nOccasionally computer programs encourage you to write “AM” and “PM” without a space before them, but others will misread your data if you omit the space. The nonstandard habit of omitting the space is spreading rapidly, and should be avoided in formal writing. \n"


what do you do when people from other coutry asked for money

Right now they hate the United States and there starting to get Nuclear Weapons. i think there Terriosts about to get us and were are not doing any thing. that what i think.


So what's your top 5 favorite Beatles songs and why (or top 3 or however many you want to put) ?\n\nAlso, WHO is your favorite Beatle and why?

I was nuts about the beatles for a long long time so this one's easy for me.\n\n10. 'If I Fell'\none of their purest of love songs showcasing their softer side....simple yet the harmonizing of John over Paul's lead vocal was classic.\n\n9. 'I Want to Hold Your Hand'\nThis was their breakout hit that caused the entire 'beatlemania' phenomenon in early 63'.\n\n8. 'You've Got to Hide Your Love Away'\nTiring of their proven formula and influenced by Bob Dylan and lots of pot, John sat down and wrote this one night while with Bob in his hotel room.  The highly introspective lyrics showed the start of something very different for all of them.\n\n7. 'Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band'\nThe opening title track to what was to become one of the most influential albums in rock history ranked with Beach Boy's 'Pet Sounds' and Pink Floyd's 'Dark Side of the Moon'.\n\n6. 'Here Comes the Sun'/ 'Something'\nGeorge's 2 contributions to Abbey Road, what I think to be 2 of George's best songs (While my Guitar...is close behind). Here comes the sun is simple yet infectiously catchy. Something is one of his best love songs.\n\n5. 'Yesterday'\nThe Beatles #1 most requested song of all time and Paul's solo vocal debut. This song has been covered by everyone from 'Boys to Men' to 'James Taylor'. \n\n4. 'Free as A Bird'\n20 some odd years after John's death the remaining 3 used current technology to bring one of John's demo recordings to life. 1 of 2 compositions that would ultimately prove to be the last studio record with the entire group, as George passes away 4 years later. You listen to it and it still sounds like the 4 of them together just like in the old days.\n\n3. 'The End'\nWith Abbey Road the beatles knew it would be their last album as a band and 'The End' was the closing track on the album. A song reminicent of the old days but with a more carefree and united feeling it was sort of a last hurrah. The closing lyric by Paul is timeless..."In the end, the love you make is equal to the love you take."\n\n2. 'Blackbird'\nMy personal favorite, this is one of the songs I requested to be played at my funeral...simple, sad, yet uplifting just the same.\n\n1. 'Let it Be'\nThis was to become the beatles swan-song. Released after the break up, it was a brilliant song written by paul. The fans took it as a parting message of hope, love, fun, and gratitude...which was what the entire beatles phenomenon was all about.\n\nHonorable Mention: 'Hey Jude'- Another of my favs., a great party song I always play if I see a piano...\nNaa Naaa Naaaa Na Na Na Naaaaaa Heeeey Jude!\n\nPS I'd have to say that Paul is my favorite beatle just for the simple fact that the group would have broken up far earlier if it wasn't for him keeping the band together for as long as he did.\nOh and Cbirdy, what album is 'Uncle Albert' off of??


I want to buy some real estate in Illinois, to rent out.  \n\nLandlords usually are required to make repairs and updates to rental property.\n\nIf I can get a tenant to sign a waiver saying THEY will handle those kind of repairs, is that legal?   Nothing underhanded, I'm not trying to rip anyone off. - I just don't want to do it.   If I can find someone who will agree to take care of upkeep themselves, I say let them.  Is it legal?

Oh you are opening up pandora's box!  Do  you really want tenants working on your property?  You are opening yourself up to a lot of liability issues there.  Definetly speak with a lawyer, but as a property manager I would say not a good idea!  If I let the tenants make decisions about repairs/maintenance/upkeep around here there would be mayhem!  I can't tell you how many people knock on my door daily....to ask to borrow a plunger! ugh!  Seriously though, think about your investment, you want to protect it right?  People tend to care for their own property much better than those who are merely renting!


What is life? Life for me is to get up early, go to school, come back from school, do homework, have dinner, go to sleep. that is my pitiful life.

Dont you have any friends to hang out with?  What about hobbies?  What do you do on the weekends?  When you grow up, your life will be pretty much the same as it is now but with work unless you do something yourself to change it.  And since you have very philisophical questions, I recommend talking to your minister who can better answer them for you.  Your life is not pitiful.  Its what you make of it.  If you want to be happy, do something happy.  If you want to be sad, then sit there and do nothing.  Your choice.


We all know that scientists like to herald their "fact-based" work. But really - just between you and me - how much of what scientists "know" is really just conjecture or based on what they have heard from other scientsts rather than from what they have proven themselves?

None really - science is a methodology.  The scientists might have faith in all sorts of things -but science itself does not.


Is the whale still alive or did the largest survive?

Probably a male orca somewhere, there was a gray whale calf kept for a while recovering from a stranding , but I don't know whether it attained a larger size than a male orca before it was returned to the wild. Blue whales are the only whales that reach 30m and 120 t and they have never been kept in captivity


It's called SLI.  (Street Light Influencing.)  It's a recognized phenomenon that is yet unexplained (as far as I know) in science.  I am a SLIder.  (They turn off for me.)  Why me, and how me?  How do I turn street lights off without even thinking about it?  (It doesn't work when I think about it.)  I'm not crazy.  Just intermittantly less illuminated on sidewalks.

This is cause by a blackhole that is inhabiting your shadow. The gravitational force of the blackhole sucks the light from street lamps and causes a temporary popped circuit. Once you pass the light should come on after the breaker cools.\n\nWhat is unfortunate is that SLIders have a negative effect on traffic lights and sometimes actaully make the red lights last longer or the green lights shorter. Oddly SLIders have no effect on yellow lights whatsoever.


He was born the 17 of February of 1917 in Guadalajara, Jalisco. He study in the National Polytechnical Institute from Mexico D.F. To the 17 years of age, constructed his first camera of television with remainder materials. In 1939 he devised the television in colors and the following year he obtained the patents Mexican and American of his invention. In 1946 he inaugurated the first experimental station of television that had only two receivers (in Mexican Liga of Radio Experimenters and in station XEW). In 1963 he made transmissions of chromatic television. He continued patenting diverse systems of television to colors like the NTSC, and Sistema Bicolor Simplificado (SBS). He passed away in an accident of automobile, the state of Puebla.

Periodically we have an item to sell but know there is no market for the item where we live.  How does one sell something as an individual, not as a business?

All you have to do is register as a seller... MANY people use ebay just once to sell a hard to sell item.  Just because you are a Seller doesn't mean you're in "Business".


If the debate is still on whether a fetus is a human life or not, should we not err on the side of life?  Because if it is a life, wouldnt the right to life trump a womans choice?

I believe we should err on the side of life. A choice was made to have sex and a pregnancy is a consequence of that choice. We must be held responsible for our actions.

Against abortion!  With the exception of rape.  \n\nIt must be extremely hard to carry a baby for 9 months out of that circumstance.  \n\nAlthough if I was in this situation, I would still carry the baby & consider adoption, I could never kill an unborn!


cigarette and tobbaco whether to be banned or not, sex in advertising, products endorsed by celebrities, india

Drugs should be banned, sex is ok it's healthy. Products should only be endorsed because they are working for a good cause not for money ... India? It's a lovely place, needs less pollution.


I would like to know just for information. Do you know some internet page of that company. Probably apply for a job.

There are many companies like this. Take a look at Rigzone.com\nhttp://www.rigzone.com/\nYou can look through the industry directory, and even the career center. They also have lots of news about the industry.\n\nAnother source: Oil and Gas Journal at \nhttp://ogj.pennnet.com/\nThey have a jobs section and lots of information about companies in the oil industry as well as statistical data about production, imports, etc.


For as long as I can remember cleaning my ears has been a painful experience. Even the slightest swipe with a q-tip hurts and itches. As I make myself continue, I begin coughing for no apparent reason. I can not make myself stop even though there is no cause. I do feel a slight pressure in my throat which could be causing a gag reflex, but the coughing seem to violent for that explaation. Also my eyes water badly. For a long time afterwards my ears burn and itch.\n\nI don't insert the q-tip too far into the canal. Mostly I just clean the outside, then get as best I can on the inside before (a) it hurts too bad to continue or (b) I am coughing and tearing so forcefully that I can't control the q-tip. \n\nHas anyone heard of this happening? Has it happened to you?  Any information would be welcome. I am becoming increasingly concerned.\nThank you.

I'm sorry I don't have an answer for you. I just wanted to say that my ears do that as well. I cough, I feel like I'm gagging, my eyes water, and sometimes I even sneeze. I hate cleaning my ears. I just wanted to tell you that you're not alone.


This is a Client Server pair which i want to interact as follows:\n\nServer: connected and waiting\nClient: connects and sends its IP address to server\nServer: Reads the message from client and prints the clients Ip address. Then sends a message to client\nClient: Receives the message from server and prints it on the screen.\n\nThe programs just hang around. \n\n/*Server program*/\nhttp://java.pastebin.ca/37726\n\n/*Client program*/\nhttp://java.pastebin.ca/37727\n\nWhereas, if i make the server only capable of writing and the client only capable of reading, it works fine.

First I want to say,\nAs far as I know you can do both Input and output operation within same socket. But I think this is not the problem.\nIn first loof I haven't found any problem but you can do some simple work to find out where it hangs.\nAfter every line put a \nSystem.out.println("line-X");\nwhere x is the line number. then you will be able to find in wich line of server and client it hangs around.\nThe most probable cause may be when it hangs, both server and client are waitin for input.\nGood Luck.


I am a baseball and basketball fan and I'm just wondering.

Being a YANKEE fan, over all, I see Mariano Rivera as their best asset.

In computational complexity theory, polynomial time refers to the computation time of a problem where the time, m(n), is no greater than a polynomial function of the problem size, n. Quadratic timing is a subclass of polynomial timing (O(n2)).
