anyone know the origin of the term '86 it'?

There are many theories. The most common ones:\n\n1. The term 86 or 86'd has its origins in NYC, where people committed suicide by jumping from the observation deck of The Empire State Building on the 86th floor before a safety fence was installed.\n\n2. The United States military has what is called the Uniform Code of Military Justice. Article 86 of the UCMJ is Absence Without Leave (AWOL)\n\n3. Originated during the Korean war. "Eighty-six" refers to the jet fighter North American F-86 Sabre. Whenever an F-86 shot down a airplane during a dogfight it had been "eighty-sixed"\n\n4. The origin of this term "eighty-sixed" refers to the standard height of a door frame (86 inches). Once you were thrown out the door, you were "86'ed"


black snake with legs and a red stripe on its head, strange roads, mom and dad, and the snake bit my 4 month old.

OK, here we go...\nAccording to Freud\nThe Snake is a phallic symbol, the legs emphasizing this.\nThe strange roads, if they are forking to the right and left, the right symbolizes moral goodness and purity, whle the left symbolizes deviance and perversion. Mom and Dad would represent guiding figures, possibly in an antagonistic fashion. The snke biting the 4 month old probably sybolizes the act of intercourse. That's according to Freud.\nA less sexually charged interpretation is that:\nThe Snake with legs symbolizes deception, it biting your child most likeley symbolizes that you fear your child will be hurt. The strange roads represent a period of uneasiness in your life, and the Parents represent the authority and guidance to help you along.


I have a wirless Belkin Router, my friends can come over with their laptop's and get online no problem. I want to secure it so that others can't. I also want to make sure others can't get into my computer through the wirless connection. I have a roommate with a laptop using the wirless connection, and I am hardwired into the router.

1. Disable SSID broadcast because it sends tells outsiders that you have a wireless network available.\n2. Enable MAC address filtering.  Each wireless card has it's own unique ID.  Filtering makes it so that only your friends' computers can connect.  However, a good hacker can bypass this.\n3. Enable the use of a WEP or WPA encryption key.  This will scramble the data as it travels through the air so outsiders can't eavesdrop.  However, you'll have to share this key (string of characters) with your friends before they connect.  Also, WEP keys are weak and can be cracked by persistent hackers of moderate skill.


antibotic tx, creams,such as cortizone,antibotics oint. this is my first time here .help

i have been a nurse for a long time. When i saw this question i was concerned for you. please see your dr. he will probably check for circulation problems or maybe you have a bacteria in the wound that the antibiotic won't kill. It should be cultured right away. This takes about 3 days to see any growth and to be able to determine what kind of bacteria is in the wound. Please look for red marks going up your leg. also check to see if the area is red and warm. if you see the red marks or it is red you should get to the e.r. Good luck. My guess is that you just need the right antibiotic. Good luck.


How do you find and buy foreclosure real estate properties?

Contact your local real estate professional. They can send you listings that are REO's (Bank Owned Properties). They can also help you understand what the market is like. Most banks list their properties with agents to market them. You can also look at HUD and VA foreclosures as a possible source. Your agent can help you with that also. This is usually the best path to take if you are just starting out.


Hi, there.\n\nI have a trouble with the antecedent of this sentence. IS the antecedent of WHICH "a cause?" Is there any possiblity WHICH expresses "a cuase and a natural law?"\n\n>Every movement in the market is the result of a natural law and of a cause which exists long before the effect takes place and can be determined years in advance\n\nThank you in advance.

Yes, you are right that "which" here only refers to "a cause".  The problem is the structure of the coordinated phrases.\n\nYou should be able to get the coordination to work out if you structure the sentence like this:\n\n"Every movement in the market is the result of a natural law and a cause which exist long before the effect takes place and can be determined years in advance."\nThis version means that the natural law and the cause are different things, and they both exist before the effect takes place.\n\nIf the natural law and the cause are the same thing, here's the sentence you need:\n"Every movement in the market is the result of a natural law, a cause which exists long before the effect takes place and can be determined years in advance."

thier loosing everything they have.  they say that its hard to quit because they dont feel good for a long time after they try to quit.

You can't convince them, they have to figure it out themselves and want to quit.


It's fun to call 1-800 numbers at random or by using key words.  See how many in a row are for sex talk - you'd be amazed.  Call numbers like 1-800-hot-mama, 1-800-big-boobs, etc.  It's hilarious.  I called one by mistake one time and just decided to see how often it happens if I start calling at random.  Like I said, the number of sex chat lines is amazing.


Water boils at 100 degrees C. But can it get even hotter or does it then immediately evaporate? Thanks.

It mainly depends on the pressure (if we are talking about pure water). The higher the pressure, the higher the boiling point - it can be much lower (ex. high in the mountains) or much higher than 100 degrees C (the boiling point under normal atmospheric pressure). If we don't talk about pure water, then adding other chemicals (for example, table salt - sodium chloride) can raise the boiling point as well.


I am on the contact list of someone I know longer wish to be in contact with.  I no longer wish for this individual to know wether or not I am logged on to Yahoo IM.

You have the option to have I think 5-7 additional screen names on one master account.  for example, this gagie_pie is my e-mail address, however, under this same account, I also have four other screen names.  Go to your My  Account page and on the right side you will see a link that says  create new profile (I believe).


for example i want to define some people with their codes and some other variables in one sheet,then by using this database and entering the codes,be able to find the other information of people in s new sheet?\nImagine you have a table contains codes of people and their names in one sheet in Excel program and you want in an other new sheet recall the informations by only entering the code?

Use the vlookup formula on the codes to reference back to the original sheet.


For example, Some are held on Mondays and Thursdays only, some on Sundays etc

There is no "blanket rule", so it comes down to guidelines from the specific denomination, and at times, availability of a pastor or the specific facility.  E.g. always booked on Sundays for regular services, very buys on Saturdays with services or preparations for Sunday, the pastor is tired on Mondays, and needs a "one day breather".\n\nIf you have a specific church/facility in mind, ask them for their guidelines/availabilities, and reasons for it.


I only remember one line: "Did you think I was such a fool to believe every word (everything?) you say was true?" It was a female lead vocal. Sounded very much like Gladys Knight but I'm not sure if it was her. Haven't heard it since that decade. Help!

The song is called "Angel in your Arms" by Hot from 1977...\n\n"Do you think I'm such a fool\nTo believe everything you say is true\nThat just goes to show\nThat you really don't know..."


Why are they always saying Osama Bin Laden is on the Pakistan-Afghanistan border?\n\nWhy isn't anybody saying he is on the Iran-Afghanistan border?  \n\nPakistan is cooperating with the US while Iran is hostile and said they wouldnt turn terrorists over.

It is not known where Bin-Laden is, but it is true he is often believed to be in Pakistan. \n\nPakistan is not necessarily cooperating with the US. On a large scale, they are. But at the local levels, there is widespread sympathy for Bin-Laden and terrorists. Remember that Pakistan is near many of the Middle Eastern trouble spots- Palestine, Afghanistan, and Iraq. \n\nFor a clear example of what I mean, recall the al-Zarqawi near-capture. Pakistan's troops surrounded a village believed to house al-Zarqawi, the number one man in the Iraq insurgency. US politicians and military leaders asked to send American troops to capture him. Pakistan refused. A day later, when the Pakistan Army moved in, they found Zarqawi had escaped through their lines. This could not have happened without sympathizers. Also, the fact Pakistan refused to cooperate shows shaky loyalties.\n\nYou are right in saying Iran is very hostile. But everyone is watching Iran because of nuclear weapons now, and Iran knows it. They are fanatics, but they are not stupid. I doubt Iran would want the immense world pressure of housing Bin-Laden, because no country REALLY wants an all-out war with the United States of America.\n\nI think, also, that questioned villagers in Afghanistan are mostly indicating that Bin Laden is in Pakistan. \n\nRemember, civilians are not told everything. I bet the CIA and military intelligence has a lot more data on Bin Laden than we do. US troops conduct regular sweeps for terrorists in Afghanistan, and their information brings us steps closer to finding the mastermind of 9/11.

an amino acid sequence of NH3-leu-arg-er-arg-met-trp-trp-met-trp-thr-leu-cooh.  Design the most suitable double stranded DNA probe

I don't think double stranded probe is a good idea. You can isolate the mRNA, then synthesize its complementary strand by using RNApolymerase. This complementary strand can be used as probe.\n\nYou can also prepare synthetic polynucleotide deduced from the sequence which would be complementary to cDNA. Like the codon for Leu may be TTA, TTG, CTT, CTC, CTA, CTG. So the corresponding complementary DNA sequence can be AAT, AAC, GAA, GAG, GAT, GAC. Actually you have to design and synthesize many probes using each of these 3 nucleotide sets, then if the cDNA is mixed, the complementary sequence will bind..... making an effective probe.\n\nYou can go through An Introduction to Genetic Engineering By Nicholl.


Time to Market is the amount of time it takes to develop and get a product into the marketplace.

it actually depends on the product that you would like to market. there are other products that take a short time to market simply because they are easy to sell and attract customers. these products can sell themselves (basic commodities and the like). \ni suggest you study similar products in the market, the behaviour of these products, how they are sold, the strategies used by the company selling these products, among other considerations. in other words, studying the behaviour of your future competitors would be a good source of information.\n\njust my two cents.. :)


Does a computer on my network need to have a class D address to it, so that other nodes ( on the same network) can send a multicast request ?

In order to enable IP Multicasting, all the nodes on your network (or at least the ones that need to recieve the multicast packets) need to be listening for packets on a certain address (from the Class D range). \nThe sending computer will then start sending data packets to that address, and all the computer should pick them up. The Multicast-HOWTO below is probably a good place to start if you want to set something like this up.

Some insurers have a MyInsuranceComany.com website of some sort, where you can find out what coverage you have.  However, I have never found them to be useful for specific procedures or tests.  \n\nUsusally, you end up having to call them and sit on hold while they look through their manuals.

WELL...IT LOOKS LIKE YOU FINALLY ASKED A QUESTION PEOPLE WANTED TO ANSWER.


Becuse it is really easy to keep them off your PC using Adaware SE, Spybot S&D, MS Antispyware, SpywareBlater and AVG Free Anti-Virus along with a hardware router and software firewall when you aren't behind it.  I haven't had a virus in...well, no, I've never had a virus on my system.

Conrad,\nYou are asking how can we get users to become more resposible and take charge. \nThey are lazy.\nAs I have grown with this www, i have got a few nasties and sought out ways to eliminate the threat.\nI use all of the above, plus a few more.\nViruses have attempted to enter my system from Trusted Clients who have not upgraded their defenses.\nThe worst offender to date is Duke Energy form Charlotte, NC.\nThey just tell you it can't happen, and I have learned to accept only faxed or mailed job requirements/specifications from them when negotiating a contract.\nThis scenario only goes to show that Viruses/Spyware can come from any place. \nAgain,  thank you for posting a question in a way that hopefully will awaken at least one other user and take responsibility, letting others save time with scans, etc.

Where did they come from? How does the tradtion work and how did it originate?


Whether they are wood, stone or metel; or whether they are charismatic people; or whether they are desires like money, sex, etc.

Because they have an emptiness that was put there by God to cause them to search. Read the Prodigal Son parable to see this in action. Once the son had had his fill and found it "wanting", he returned to his Father who was waiting with open arms.


SEX is a gift from GOD.SEX is natural,SEX is fun.So why be so offended when SEX is discussed,or shown on T.V.,or in the movies,music vedeos,etc.Everywhere you look there's SEX....so why the shame,and the hush-hush when it come to this subject?

I had just seen a wonderful movie with a friend and at the end I said it was Oscar worthy, then my friend replied "Movies don't win awards only people do!"\nI thought she was rude in saying that, as there is a category for best picture.

The script can be Oscar-worthy, the acting can be Oscar-worthy, the cinematography can be Oscar-worthy - every element of a film can be deemed worthy of an Oscar. Movies do win Oscars, as you said, for best picture.


And I'm not talking about in console games. If you have had a real life ace describe the shot... course, hole/distance, iron you hit, roll and drop/flew it, etc. I've played seriously for almost 10 years now and have been close, but never had one drop.

Yes. Thank goodness I had three witnesses too. It was on a hole that was only 170 yards, but what the heck. I had an opportunity to fill out a form at the clubhouse and answer questions about what type of club I used, what type of ball, shoes, glove, etc. It was fun and I had been playing for about six years when I did it. I originally thought I hit it past the green, but couldn't see until we looked in the hole. Fourth hole at San Jose Municipal Golf Course in California. Whee!


What is teleportation? Why an unknown indian still being tortured with this experiment? and why was it extended from 10 to 11 years? is it not a violation of human rights?

Are they talking about black helicopters as well?\n\nOh, to answer your original question, teleportation is the movement of matter from one place to another without it going through the intervening area.  In other words, Star Trek stuff, also known as fiction.\n\nYou might check your sources to make sure they don't spur other BS like this.


My husband's birthday is coming up and I wanted to do something at home for him that was thoughtful and different, but not too expensive. Any creative ideas?

If it were me, I would like to have something really special planned for me. I would not want to know anything about it. It would be a suprise, (not a suprise birthday party) but like going to a favorite resturant, then maybe to a local bar for a quick drink and then home. When we got home I would like you (her) to be in a sexy lingere, sexy panties and then let what ever happens from there happen.


Is it true that if we knew the mass, velocity, and direction of every atom in the universe, we could predict the future, thus proving that everything in life is cause and effect and that there is no free will?

Probably not.  There are several problems\n\n1) because of the Heizenberg(sp?) uncertainty principle to learn of the exact direction of an atom one would change it's original direction.\n\n2) even if we could know a priori all that information it would require a simulation machine the size of the universe to calculate everything exactly.\n\n3)  I think there are still events of randomness at the atomic level that cannot be predicted.


Which team/country do you rate highest in the world and why do you do so?

New Zealand.  Superior passing...teamwork...and sometimes kicking!  They don't get tired out after the 1st half & don't waste time kicking the ball away every time they have posession.


Are they real? Are they fake? Anything else to know about them?

I think the idea is really, really interesting.  I read a LOT about ghosts and hauntings when I was a kid.  And you can't prove that they don't exist because you can't prove a negative.\n\nHowever, as much as I would love for ghosts to exist, the more I know the more I realize that evidence for ghostly manifestations is probably explainable by non-ghostly, real, but ephemeral phenomena.\n\nFor example, I had a book on ghostly hauntings in England.  There were more scent "hauntings" than any other type, meaning that you would experience the haunting by getting a whiff of pipe smoke or bacon.   This can be explained by the fact that scents can be absorbed by porous materials such as wood and plaster.  After they are absorbed, they will disappear until meteorological conditions,  like high humidity, cause the scent to become airborne and be smellable again.  Given a very porous wall and a long-standing habit like pipe-smoking and you can get whiffs of smoke for geneartions.

This is prob a stupid question, I just saw the movie and I missed the explanation of the result of a china syndrome.

All nuclear plants that are producing power must be "critical."  The plant is shut down when it is "subcritical."  A nuclear accident can occur if the reactor goes "supercritical."  A supercritical plant can release uncontrolled heat drying the core and melting it.  A melted core would fall by gravity toward the center of the world (like anything else that falls).  Since Canton OH was almost directly opposite Canton China on the globe, the core would fall toward China, thus the China syndrome.  Of course the core would have to melt its way past the plant barriers but would not release enough energy to reach China let alone deeply penetrate the earth.  For those with a wild imagination, China would also be protected by the massive molten layer in the center of the earth that surrounds the extremely hard metal core.  None-the-less, China Syndrome is a catchy phrase.


A man walks up to you and says - "everything I say to you is a lie."\nIs he telling you the truth or is he lying?

He is lying. If everything he said was a lie then he just told the truth, there by proving false the statement that he just said.

Is there any concrete, irrefutable evidence proving the existence of "God" (the one in the Bible).

Nope - it's all a 'personal' belief system. I quoted personal since many religions are an organized form of mind-control setup to benefit those in power at the 'head' of the religion or those leading the nation where the religion is being established. \n\nWhen everyone thinks alike they are much easier to control and influence into doing the things you want them to do. And the participants feel more at ease when all those around them feel and think the same way - it helps take the edge and unease away.\n\nJust look at how feverently organized religion trys to get it's followers to convert others.\n\nUpdate: Just had to address some points Raymond made below, specifically this part: \n"The one-celled animals reproduce by splitting, not sex. How could male and female be evolved into multicelled animals before they die from splitting? Did one Ameoba tell another, "Hey, why don't you become a female and I will be a male and we will have sex and produce baby ameobas."?\nAlso, how did evolution evolve pleasure during sex?"\n\nSex back in the day of one celled animals was not what you think it is, a male and a female interacting with some 'body' part that exchanges fluids. It's much more likely the first version of sex was the accidental exchange of RNA amongst an isolated community. That then gives that community genetic diversity and therefore gives them an advantage to survive environment change. If something then happens to wipe out all the other clones (based on their identical weakness to change) that reproduced by splitting, boom, sex has evolved as the dominant way to reproduce.\n\nAnd why do you think there is pleasure during sex? Just to make it feel good say you can say "Thanks God, that was awesome!"? Get real - ALL life on this planet has one universal drive - to reproduce and propogate the species. What would be the best way to ensure things reproduce - why - you might find those individuals that found it felt good, did it more, had more off spring, and after a few generations out number the rest of the population, so boom - now pleasurable sex has evolved. Take some responsibility for your own life and see the world and your place in it for what it is - or perhaps that is just too scary.

Say an organization is giving out free clocks to its members. Non-members also want this particular clock. Is it ethical to make money selling this clock to non-members if you got it for free?

It was given to you and is yours to do  whatever you want with it.  I see no problem in selling it, if that is what you want to do with your property.


believe in the christian god. i want believe that all religions or at least most are due to geography or other reasons a pathway to god. however, i have been told that the christian god is the only god and if you don't believe in that you will be judged and sent to hell. \nthamks,\n\n jimmy\n\njimmylyback@yahoo.com

I believe there is only one way to God and that is through Jesus Christ. If you believe he died for you, saved you from your sins, and ask Him to forgive you, you will be saved. I'm really not interested in this question, I want you to believe. God is the only way to heaven and if you don't confess your sins to Him you will go to hell, but if you do you will  spend eternaty(sp) with Him in heaven.


I believe in giving, but in the case of going practically bankrupt and almost pennyless, how can you go through this period without having to steal to offer someone of worth to someone of worth?  I have a girlfriend, and she is not demanding at all.  Bills have caught up to me, and now I don't know how I will get her what I promised!

Giving something to someone because everyone else is caught up in the game (X-mas in the USA) is really quite selfish if you stop and think about it.  Is it for them? or is it for YOU?  Doing it so you don't look cheap?  Then you can resent her for putting you in debt for the rest of the year?  I suggest you give her something that is meaningfull.  Think about it.  Your time on this blue marble is very limited and that makes your time your most valuable posession.  Think about it.


Example: is someone kising now? is someone eating jelly off someones stomach? Is someone smiling at a corpse? Is someone frying an egg on the sidewalk? etc....

At first glance you would say that it is.  But when you really think about it, it is not possible.  For example, there is not a government leader being assassinated at every moment.  With smaller everyday things it may be true.


If I define a specific DNS address in windows it works fine, but if I tell it to get it from my linksys router (192.168.1.1) it doesn't.  I need to reboot the modem and router to connect each and every time.  The way I fixed it is to "keep alive" the connection.  Is there a way to fix this without telling each computer specific dns addresses?

You'll probably have to configure the router with specific DNS server addresses so that it can "query" those for DNS information. Do a search on googld for Public DNS servers to find the address for free/public DNS servers\n\nor call your Internet Service Provider.  They can help you fix it too.  \n\nI just configure DNS for each computer.  I like each computer to know exactly how to "get on the net" instead of having the computer depend on the router to tell it how.


why dont thhey beleive in Christmas which is the birth of Christ, birthdays thanksgiving etc

The Jehovah's Witnesses do not celebrate religious holidays because they have a strict reading of certain passages of the Bible.  For example, they do not celebrate Christmas, because the Bible does not command Christians to celebrate Christ's birth, but rather his death (Luke 22:19, 20).  There is no mention in the bible of early Christians celebrating Christmas or Easter.\n\nJehovahs don't celebrate birthdays, again because the only mention of birthday celebrations in the Bible is by non-Christians (Genesis 40:20-22; Mark 6:21, 22, 24-27)\n\nThe one religious holiday which Jehovahs do celebrate is the anniversary of Christ's death.


I think the spam upgrade is the one you are looking for


I just want to know a few people's opinion about this question. Is morality really the product of fear or not ?

Yes and no; it is a product of fear because you are afraid of what will happen to you in this life and in the next, but it is also a product of evolution and a social norm.  It is a product of learning but part of learning morality is a fear of what will happen.  Also, morality is an extremely complex issue and sometimes, something that is morally right is more dangerous in the long run, so it can't be entirely the product of fear.  (Thanks for making me think)


"After a searching review of the record and applicable case law, we find that while ID arguments may be true, a proposition on which the court takes no position, ID is not science. We find that ID fails on three different levels, any one of which is sufficient to preclude a determination that ID is science. They are: (1) ID violates the centuries-old ground rules of science by invoking and permitting supernatural causation; (2) the argument of irreducible complexity, central to ID, employs the same flawed and illogical contrived dualism that doomed creation science in the 1980's; and (3) ID's negative attacks on evolution have been refuted by the scientific community."\n\n-- Another quote from U.S. District Judge John E. Jones III's ruling that struck down a school board's decision to require biology students in Dover, Pa., to be taught about the concept of "intelligent design":

Actually I support the church of the flying spaghetti monster, as described by venganza.org.  I believe that a giant spaghetti monster created the universe.  The website explains it way better than I can, but basically the world was created by an invisible flying spaghetti monster who requires everyone to dress like pirates and all natural disasters are because of the shrinking number of pirates. He also likes us to think the world is older than it really is and messes up carbon-dating with his noodly appendage.  we have many written volumes of his creation of the earth ,"none of us, of course were around to see it, but we have written accounts of it"  and my favorite part: "I think we can all look forward to the time when these three theories are given equal time in our science classrooms across the country, and eventually the world; One third time for Intelligent Design, one third time for Flying Spaghetti Monsterism, and one third time for logical conjecture based on overwhelming observable evidence"\n\nI also believe in the "Intelligent Falling" theory and think that it should be given equal time in all physics classrooms along with the unproven, ridiculous theory of gravity. Of course, all objects stay on the earth because God or some other more powerful being is pushing them down.


I read on a site that drinking 5-30 grams of alcohol a week can reduce your risk of type 2 diabetes and i was wondering how much that is.

Well Alcohol is a little lighter than water, and 1 gram of water is 1 mililiter.\n\nThere are 473 mililiters in 1 US pint so there are a little less than 473 grams of alcohol in a pint.\n\nNow keep in mind, your typical vodka is only 40% alcohol, wine is about 12% and most american beer is 3-5%.\n\nSo to get 30 grams of alcohol you would need to drink approximately 2 12 ounce american beers.

seriously is there a god and who is he or she or it and why do you think this or what do you believe

The problem with most people is that they have to see the facts right in front of their face before they will believe anything. Skeptics of course will tell you that no, there is no God. A lot of Religious groups will tell you that you are going to Hell if you don't believe in God. I don't agree with either. I don't waste my time defending what I believe to Skeptics. Let them think what they want. There is no Hell and so many gung ho religious groups want you to believe. The only Hell people will have to go through is their own concsious. I believe that there is a God, but we were sent here to find our own path and then make our way back home. God absolutely does exist, but can be called Light, The Divine, etc. It is up to every individual to find God for themselves.

Can a 16 year old citizen of USA get a passport without parental consent. If it is possible what documents are needed, can they apply by mail or do they have to go to the passport office in person.

It appears that a 14-year-old might be able to get a passport without parental consent.\n\nThe page listed below states that for minors 14 to 17, "for security reasons parental consent may be required".  I believe that they are mainly trying to prevent one parent from taking the child out of the country without the other parent's consent, but I would be surprised if there weren't questions about a minor appearing without consent.\n\nThe page listed below also contains a list of required documents.  Basically, it's a US birth certificate (with raised seal) and some government-issued (including school) photo ID OR someone with ID who has known you for 2 years and will attest to your identity.\n\nIt takes about 6 weeks before you receive your new passport and birth certificate back in the mail.\n\nAll first-time applications must be made in person.

I was superglueing a cup back together and fell asleep. The glue leaked out of the tube and now my face is glued solid(about a 3 inche diametee) to the table.

Use your webcam to take a picture so we can all laugh at you!\n\nIf this were a real question I would tell you to use a spoon or fork handle to gently ease your skin apart from the object. Do not attempt to cut through the skin/glue bond and don't try to 'rip' your skin away with a sharp tug.

I took my grandfather to the hospital the other day and I saw a sign there that explained about foot care for diabetics.  It said that you weren't supposed to put lotion between the toes, only on the bottom and top of the foot.  Why is that?

From: http://www.foot.com/info/cond_diabetic_foot.jsp\n\nRub a thin coat of skin lotion or cream on the tops and bottoms of the feet. Do not put lotion between your toes, because this might cause infection.\n\nDiabetes does bad things to people.

What is the tragectory of a slider, and how is it different from a curveball? How is a slider typically thrown?

In baseball, a slider (also known as a "nickel curve") is a pitch halfway between a curveball and a fastball, with less break but more speed than the curve. It will tend to drop less and move toward or away from the batter more than a curve. The extra speed can fool the hitter into thinking it is a fastball, until too late. Some pitchers also use a cut fastball (or cutter) which is one step closer than the slider to the fastball on the spectrum between fastballs and curves. A pitch that has movement similar to both a slider and a curveball is sometimes called a slurve.\n\nIn addition, the term 'slider' often refers to mini hamburgers, such as those at White Castle or often served at pubs.

Here are the hassles I'm trying to avoid:\n* high resource usage (Panda Software)\n* a virus disabling the antivirus (Norton)\n* Internet Explorer dependencies (Mcafee)\n* bad tech support (almost every antivirus vendor)\n* firewall or antivirus pop-ups (systray notification is fine)\n\nIdeally, the vendor would have forums, user-submitted documentation and other mechanisms short of contacting technical support to solve problems, and a bug reporting form.\n\nIf the answer is Trend Micro, will someone please help me find someone who can support it free of charge without my having to call them? The spyware scan seems inconsistent sometimes finding things sometimes not (2 minutes of each other), it has trouble removing TSPY.SN and keeps popping up to tell me it found TSPY.SN creating what is essentially an infinite loop.\n\nWhen I boot into safe mode, the product fails to work properly.\n\nIdeally, I would want a security suite.\n--Sam

Norton is pretty hassel free if you've got enough system resources for it not to be a problem.  Updates by it self, does the job, and besides if you have a NT OS system resources aren't something you've gotta worry about as much anyway.  At least not as much as you do with windows 98, which was a nice OS for the time but basicly screws you over with the OS system resources running out and thus forcing you to restart everytime this happens.

i cut. not alot and not like most but i enjoy watching it bead up and drip. the pain is insationable. i wear black "goth" cloths on occations and listen to rock/heavey metal music. but i also wear normal clothing and listen to rap at times. i dont claim to be a cutter or goth but doesnt stop people from asuming that i am trying to be either of these. i am who i am and i do things according to how i feel and whats clean and who im w/ does this make me a poser?

You're not a poser.  You should not cut yourself because it could leave scars and might get infected.\n\nSounds like you are a little bored in some ways. This sounds silly maybe there is a club at your school that you would like to join.\n\nOr maybe, if the country is not too far away, you would like to take up horseback riding.  It is a lot of fun.  My mom used to take me and my two brothers to it when we were in grade school or junior high.\n\nThe horses are pretty cool and they don't make you ride them really fast when you are a beginner.  It is very different than when you see horse-riding competions on TV.  It is just fun.\n\nThe horses for beginner rides are reasonably gentle too.  Most of them are not stubborn or willful and will go where you want them to go, which is kind of cool.\n\nIf you do stuff like horseback riding, or are in a club, nobody will assume that you are a poser.  They can't. There aren't really stereotypes for stuff like that.  If you cut yourself, wear all black - they assume you are trying to fit a stereotype.  Then it all comes down to them assuming you fit the stereotype - or you do not and are just pretending.\n\nFind something really fun to do and the question won't come up.  And you won't care if it does.  And you won't have to second guess what other people are thinking or about what you really want to do.  Because you will be doing it.\n\nThen maybe they will be jealous.  But you can deal with that.\n\nI am including some links to some clubs and fun stuff.  Just to give you some ideas.  You might see one that looks interesting.  Most don't require a uniform or have any dress code.  So you can still wear black if you want.\n\nIt is kind of a random hodge podge because I do not know what will appeal to you.  Chances are one thing on this list will really catch your eye.  You can do a little investigating and see if it is available in your area, as a club at your school, or as a weekly or weekend activity.

I'm not talking about black pepper, dust or cat hair.\nI mean the nerves,muscles, organs, whatever, that cause the air to be expelled out with great force.

Sneeze is an involuntary violent expiration of air through the nose and mouth. It results from stimulation of the nervous system in the nose, causing sudden contraction of the muscles of expiration. The stimulus can include any irritating factor in the nose—inflammation of the tissues as the result of a cold or infection, allergic irritants (hay fever), or irritating substances such as dust or pollutants in the air. An occasional sneeze usually has little significance. Repeated sneezing indicates that some condition of the nose or in the immediate atmosphere requires attention.

Food that gets left out goes stale? What causes this? Is it just the air and moisture getting into the food?

To expand on the previous answer, the food getting stale is usually a result of evaporation. The air sweeps in and carries the moisture out, thus leaving your favorite soft snack crunchy.

I know, it's a stereotype, but living close to SF, I've always been curious as to how SF came to be known as one of the most liberal areas in the nation.

I think that, as with basically every other major urban center with a large amount of immigration and close quarters, people in San Francisco, being surrouded by so many different kinds of people, tend to be more accepting of change and more accepting of various practices. Further, the stereotype of San Francisco being liberal led to its fulfillment, as liberal-minded people decided to move there, knowing they would be among people who agree with them.

I need a movie scene which I can examine for the physical elements of it. For example - motion, momentum , rotation, energy/work, force. A scene which would have some of the concepts (3). \n\nAny scenes come to mind?

In Christmas with the Krank's, there is a scene where a guy is setting up a snowman on the roof. The snowman tips over, colliding with the man inelastically (momentum), sliding down the roof (inclined plane/force), and together they fall hard on the ground (energy). I think that should work; I did this project last year as a junior. Good luck with Hinsdale Central's infamous cinema physics project!


at your shoes would u say something to him????????if so what would u say???????

If he was creepy looking I would walk out the store. But if he was good looking, I would ask him if he liked what he saw. I might even say that I needed a foot rub and then ask him if he gives good foot massages. Hopefully, he would say "yes" and we could leave together and go get to know each other better.


Does the origin word means the meaning of today ?

The word capital has roots in the trade and ownership of animals. The Latin root of the word is capitalis, from the proto-Indo-European kaput, which means "head", this being how wealth was measured. The more heads of cattle, the better. The terms chattel (meaning goods, animals, or slaves) and even cattle itself also derive from this same origin.\n\nThe lexical connections between animal trade and economics can also be seen in the names of many currencies and words about money: fee (faihu), rupee (rupya), buck (a deerskin), pecuniary (pecu), stock (livestock), and peso (pecu or pashu) all derive from animal-trade origins.\nThe first use of the word Kapitalist was in 1848 in the Communist Manifesto by Marx and Engels; however, "kapitalismus," the german word for "capitalism" was not used. The first use of the word capitalism is by novelist Thackeray in 1854, by which he meant ownership of a large amount of capital.\n\nIn 1867 Proudhon used the term capitalist to refer to owners of capital, and Marx and Engels refer to the "capitalist form of production" ("kapitalistische Produktionsform") and in Das Kapital to "Kapitalist", "capitalist" (meaning a private owner of capital). By the early 20th century the term had become widespread, as evidenced by Max Weber's use of the term in his The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism in 1904, and Werner Sombart's 1906 Modern Capitalism.\n\nThe Oxford English Dictionary cites the use of the term "private capitalism" by Karl Daniel Adolf Douai, German-American socialist and abolitionist in the late 19th century, in an 1877 work entitled "Better Times", and a citation by an unknown author in 1884 in the pages of Pall Mall magazine.\n\nThe definition of capitalism given in dictionaries has changed over time. For example, the 1909 Century Dictionary defined capitalism as:\n\n   1. The state of having capital or property; possession of capital.\n   2. The concentration or massing of capital in the hands of a few; also, the power or influence of large or combined capital.\n\nThe contemporary definition, however, refers to an economic system. For example, the Merriam-Webster Third International Unabridged Dictionary refers to capitalism as: " an economic system characterized by private or corporation ownership of capital goods, by investments that are determined by private decision rather than by state control, and by prices, production, and the distribution of goods that are determined mainly in a free market." Hence, "capitalism" today commonly refers to what was called laissez-faire and economic liberalism in the 18th and 19th centuries.\n\nAccording to some left wing theories regarding ideology, a dominant economic class disseminates an ideology serving its class interests. Therefore the ideology of the capitalist class (previously known as the bourgeoisie) also came to be known as "capitalism", giving the word a meaning which is distinct, albeit closely related to, the economic system. This usage has been adopted outside of leftist circles, and many economic liberals describe themselves as "capitalists", even if they are not personally involved in business investment and/or the ownership of the means of production.

I am so confused... a guy I have been "dating" for about a year had "relations" with another girl. We are not in a commited relationship but it still hurt to find this out. My question is do I leave or do I stay even though he was honest enough to tell me? Or do I take his honesty and boldness as a sign that he really doesnt care what I do one way or another?

I say leave. A year is not a lifetime, but I think enough time to figure out what you want. He wants to date around and not commit. It seems like you might want more.\n\nIf you stick around, you'll just be a convienance\nand you'll wind up getting more hurt.


So I've got a playlist of, like, 100 mp3s and oggs. I notice down at the bottom of the playlist, there's a little lozenge that tells me how long (in minutes/seconds) my playlist is. How can I find out how hefty it is?

The easiest way (not guaranteed to work) is:\n\n1.Scroll though entire playlist in Winamp – so Winamp checks the song length for  each song, you don’t have to play the song, just look at it.  I recommend remaking your playlist if possible.\n2.Do a Windows search on the directory where all of your music is located, searching for “*.mp3” or “*.ogg” [You might have to do this twice, once for each, without the quotes]\n3.Right click on the [Fields] at the top of the search window (like Date, Type, etc) and choose “Date accessed”\n4.Sort by your new column by clicking on it.\n5.Select the correct files by  clicking the first file and then [shift] clicking the last one.  \n6.Right click the group and choose Properties.  It will list the total size.\n7.Repeat for other file extensions.


My 450watt PSU has the 4pin plug for the motherboard but does not have the 20pin.  It does have a 24pin though which I cannot figure out what it goes on.\n\nAny suggestions?  Do I NEED both of them or just the 4pin?

You do need both. The power supply you have is a later version of the ATX form factor. Basically, your power supply has more pins because it's made with the later standard. Your motherboard is probably fairly old and/or basic. In any case, you should be able to plug the 24-pin plug into the the 20-pin socket without a problem (it should only fit one way). If you don't feel comfortable doing this, there are adapters available. Here is a link to buy one:\n\nhttp://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16812101122


Or does something else cause it to flare up?

According to KidsHealth.org, "emotional stress can lead to eczema flares, so your doctor might also ask you about any stress you're feeling at home, school, or work."  Medic8.com says, "Stress can flare some people's eczema--tackling this stress can be very helpful."\n\nThere is no doubt that stress takes its toll on all of the systems of your body.  It is only reasonable to conclude that any diseases or conditions will be exacerbated by stress.

It's an animal that looks like a flying buffalo.

Nope.  Went extinct.  Tasty wings, though.


I know they both suck, but all comments are welcome!!!

Pete Wilson knows how government works.  He has been in government serving the people for a long time.\n\nGov. Schwarzenegger is someone who made his money, and is bored.  So he ran for office and the people of California decided to give him a chance.\n\nYou have to know how it work to make things work.


If any President held a pantent what was it for?

yep, Lincoln for some bellows attached to the hull of a ship


i mean, i know youre supposed to ply them with boone's farm.  what is the best way to get to that point?

Honestly, unless you're a senior in high school nearing graduation, you're not likely to get college girls while in high school. If you wait until graduation, then I suggest hanging out where the college girls hang out -- clubs, coffee shops, whatever.  Be yourself, be respectful, and don't "ply" them with anything -- you really don't want to risk rape charges.  Good luck!


I was just wondering if there is a cop or an attorney that knows the legal answer! I want to carry my Springfield XD 9 in my truck but I dont want to break the law so if anyone could please forward me some info I would really appreciate it THANKS and Merry Christmas!!!!

Juveniles under the age of 21 are forbidden from carrying a handgun.  Florida also will not recognize licenses from other states for individuals under the age of 21.\n\nEDIT: I realized that the CCW reciprocal recognition program applies only to actual CCW permits.  You're asking more broadly about carrying a weapon in a car, but I don't think the rules change - though, interestingly, there was a significant Supreme Court dispute years ago about whether the federal word "carry" included possession of a weapon in a car or only on a person.  Regardless, I wouldn't recommend it, unless you can find an extremely specific legal verdict that directly allows juveniles to transport weapons.


Half my monitor goes black and someone told me I had a dry joint in the circuit.  Do I need a new monitor or can this one be fixed.

A dry joint is a solder joint that has not been properly soldered, a solder joint being the connection of any of the electronic components to the main circuit board. \n\nA dry joint can be fixed using a soldering iron, and a bit of solder.  Although you do have to know where it is, and be able to access that area. \n\nIf you are lucky (and have a friend with a soldering iron) you might be able to find it, although I suspect it’s either going to be a trip to an engineer, or a new monitor.


Don't feed the troll. I've reported this user and they won't be around for much longer.


My internet explorer is messed up and i cant redownload it because microsoft keeps detecting it...how can i correct this?

Assuming you're using Windows XP, can you go in to 'Add or Remove Programs' and click on the 'Add/Remove Windows Components' button to the left?\n\nIf not, the Microsoft Knowledge Base has an article about repairing your copy of IE which is pretty easy to follow:\n\nhttp://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?kbid=318378


Ajax is currently the dominant in Web 2.0.  What are some prospective competitors?

Assuming that by Ajax you mean "use of the XMLHttpRequest object/active X control through javascript", there are a few options.\nPerhaps the biggest limitation of the XMLHttpRequest object is its overly strict security model, allowing only connections to the exact hostname the web page was loaded from. Recent browser updates have started to relax that model, but ajax apps that want to target most browsers are still stuck with the strict model.\n\nVarious "hacks" have been put together to partially overcome this "same-domain" limitation. Those include using IFRAME, SCRIPT or IMG tags, all of which can target external domains and get some data back, to various extents.\n\nMore interestingly, Flash offers an XML object which offers very similar functionalities to the XmlHttpRequest object, but also allows to target external domains (the exact domain behavior is dependent on the flash version. flash 6 allows some curious sub-domain access, while flash 7 and above allow arbitrary domains, provided an authorization file is served by the external domain.)\n\nMy opinion is that Flash is currently being grossly under-used by the Web 2.0 crowd, considering its potential. \nI would expect more applications in the future to use a hybrid flash/js model, where flash provides the backend networking code, while the UI is done using HTML/CSS/JS.


I know this sounds stupid but i really want to aswer peoples questions and i dont know how to!

I was wondering the same thing too. It's not that bad. When someone has asks a question on the bottom of the page you will see open questions, those are the qestions you can answer. You will a tab that says "answer question" click on it and then you will be routed to a new screen it will have a field for you to write your answer. After you have written you answer you are able to preview it. After you preview your message it has another tab that say "submit answer" click on it and you're done. I hope that this helps you. It took me a while to figure this out but if all else fail just keep playing with it until something makes clicks. Have fun. : )

can u guy show me the best web to download free mp3 ,wma

Limewire is the best P2P program. As for "websites", there aren't any good ones that offer good music.


A question I answered was removed. Does Yahoo explain WHY a question/answer was removed? Why not? Couldn't Yahoo note the reason without causing too much trouble?

I think it was my question and I want to apologize I think I had a legitimate reason for removing it.  I added some links in the additions part and one of the links when I checked it, it opened into a friends data base rather then their site.  So I had to delete it, I actually liked your answer!  You might want to go back to that question and repost it.  I am sorry for any inconvenience this caused you or any one else.  I just did what I thought was the right thing to do. If it was you I would have done it for you as well!  Thanks,


sorry i just want to know how many girls ever got this line or how many guys gave it. if you got this line and don't know it yet, it's a bullshit line unless she's actually his sister (biological or marital.) if you ever gave this line to a girl please tell me why!

Or "This is my Cousin." Same difference.....Don't believe it, it's BS. Thank God I haven't had to use that line.

I know it has to do with moisture & sunlight, but can someone give me a succinct answer? (like in a paragraph or so?)

Rainbows are formed because of the process of bending light knows as Refraction. different colors of light bend at different angles when they refract. When light from the sun enters a droplet of rain, it refracts a tiny bit causing the colors of light to spread apart, the light then bounces, or reflects, off of the back of the droppled and refracts once again as it leave the dropplet on the same side it entered. By the time the light reaches your eyes the refraction is so noticeable that you see all the colors of sunlight spread apart - creating a Rainbow


I have gone to every phil collins concerts and collected cds on both artists. It is too bad mr. collins has retired.

I love phil collins. His "another day in paradise" is wonderful


Just want to know what the general public thinks of it.

I am a proud veteran of the US Army and I am totally against this war. On the one hand you have all these supposed justifications for the reasons we are there but they just contradict the reasons we are really there.\n\nIf the current adminstration and the administration before it, for that matter, was so concerned about humanitarian issues, I do not see why we were not in the Congo or other REAL hotspots in the world with our "Shock and Awe" show of force. There are places all over the globe we can be and can really help. Unfortunately, unless there is some way to profit from those areas (OIL), we will not do anything about those problems.


I've got my OLD iBook out of the closet and I only have 128mb RAM in it. That's not enough for anything. I know that I can max it out at 512mb using one SODIMM, but do   I really have to spend more than US$100?? Macsolutions http://www.macsolutions.com/clibme.html lists it for US$107.48 and Memory Ten is even worse http://www.memoryx.net/m8631ga.html at US$129.98. Is there a cheaper place I get RAM for this old machine?

Are the following instructions for diluting a 10.0 M solution to 1.0 M solution correct: “Take 100.0 mL of the 10.0 M solution and add 900.0 mL water”? Explain briefly.\nShow calculations if necessary.

The instruction is not correct because the total volume yielded when you mix 100ml of concentrated solution and 900ml water will be somewhat less than 1000ml. The concentration will be slightly higher than 1.0M\n\nThe correct procedure is to take a 1l volumetric flask  and add the concentrated solution to about 800ml water, then fill up to the mark.


I've been considering Slackware, but would like to know what else is popular. I'm hoping to do computer graphics and animation.

I have tried many distros myself, including Mandrake, Fedora, and SUSE.\n\nATM my favorite is SUSE because it recognizes all of my hardware out of the box.  It is also very newbie friendly imo.\n\nThe newest version of Fedora hates my sound card.  Mandriva is my 2nd pick.


just as the title says, i'm doing a research paper, and can't find much on this., could someone please give me a link to a site they can give me this information. asap please

Lets resolve this overdue question by bringing it to a vote.


Without getting in to detail does this mean I have traits of both Cancer and Leo?\nIf I have those traits would it be easier to direct the positive in my life?\nOr, does it just make me complex?

I was born on July 22nd. I know from experience that I am more so a Cancer than a Leo, but I do possesss certain Leo traits. I certainly believe you can possess traits from both signs. I don't think I am more complex because of this either. I think it enhances me as a person and makes me much more interesting . . .\n\nMy advice is to read up on the traits of both signs. I am sure you will see what fits you and what doesn't. By the way, my Mother was born July 23rd, so she is a Leo on the Cancer cusp as well. I notice that although she has the "heart of a  Cancer", she is definitely a proud Lioness. Hope that helps!! Good luck!


There are way too many teeny bopper questions..."my boyfriend this, and my girlfriend that"..."and how do I know when a boy likes me".... sigh

One of the best things about this site is that anyone of any age (well 13+), sex, religion, nation or country of national origin can use it.  I learn a lot from some of the most childish questions and sometimes a child my not have access or feel comfortable with talking to an adult, but will post a question here.\n\nThis is not a chat room.  It is an experiment in cyber community relations.  Perhaps yahoo would expand their catagories to include some which specifically say Adult Relations and not just Friends and Family or Love and Romance.\n\nSure How much wood and Why is the sky questions are a pain in the patootie.  Don't answer them, skip and move on.  Remember this is still a beta sight which usually means Under Construction or Development.\n\nYou might contact the Yahoo Answers team directly.

My sister thinks that christmas eve is in the evening but i am not sure.

just the day before, its the eve of christmas.   like the dawning of a day.


well it all stared when i was in 9th grade  i've been trying to tell them but i back off.

It takes a lot of cojones, I'll give you that.  It takes your parents having some form of trust in you (and your argument for the boy to them will call on that) and you having warranted that trust, or be able to show them that you should be trusted.  Present your case to them (preferably after they've been medicated JK) after you have written the whole thing down.  It sounds dumb but it gives you a chance to organise your thoughts and put them in an order that is condusive to a winning argument.  However, all this may be for naught.  Your parents may be unwilling to see anything other than their five year old daughter getting plowed by some big, hairy, sweaty, nasty, trogolodite.  It's not their fault that you haven't grown up in their minds.    I must say that I don't envy your position.  But keep your head and you'll be surprised at what can happen.\n\nHappy Trails

I live in Fla and I was cleared on Dec 16th of this year from all debt.  I have a large amount of money that I need to start working with, find a place to live, etc.  Do the courts really look at you after you are signed off?

Just exactly how did you come into this large sum of money?  If it is something that was yours prior to the bankruptcy and you didn't disclose it to the court, then you have committed bankruptcy fraud.


Additionally can you describe the mans crime in further detail?

I want to say Madison, another senator?, insulted him and caused a common duel with pistols, within the first  10 to 15 years of America's official birth


I read in a magazine called "Astromony" that some day\nthese two galaxies will collide and form one gigantic\nmass of displaced stars. However, some of these stars\nwill be smashed from their original place and fall\nelsewhere. I know that the Aries constellation is in\nthe Andromeda galaxy. where is your zodiac constellation?

It is approximately 2.2 million light years away.  A light year is 5,865,696,000,000 miles (9,460,800,000,000 kilometers), so multiply this by 2.2 million and you have the distance in miles/kilometers.


I have always assumed it was the sound of a tendon scrabing over a bone at a corner or something.

Your joints can make a variety of sounds: popping, cracking, grinding, and snapping. The joints that "crack" are the knuckles, knees, ankles, back, and neck. There are different reasons why these joints "sound off".\n\n    * Escaping gases: Scientists explain that synovial fluid present in your joints acts as a lubricant. The fluid contains the gases oxygen, nitrogen, and carbon dioxide. When you pop or crack a joint, you stretch the joint capsule. Gas is rapidly released, which forms bubbles. In order to crack the same knuckle again, you have to wait until the gases return to the synovial fluid.\n    * Movement of joints, tendons and ligaments: When a joint moves, the tendon’s position changes and moves slightly out of place. You may hear a snapping sound as the tendon returns to its original position. In addition, your ligaments may tighten as you move your joints. This commonly occurs in your knee or ankle, and can make a cracking sound.\n    * Rough surfaces: Arthritic joints make sounds caused by the loss of smooth cartilage and the roughness of the joint surface.\n\n\nBasically knuckles crack because pulling on your knuckle joints releases gases in the body’s soft tissues and the joint capsule. As the gases spring out of the fluid and enter the joint space it makes a cracking sound.


E.g: My hotmail friend sends 5 photos to me but i want to see them in one page like hotmail mail does\n\nInstead,i have to open them 1 by 1.\n\nand my friends at hotmail, see them without doing anything

ok you answered you own question.. sorta... yahoo and hotmail use different technoligies.. if you want to see the pictures try and see if you can see them at the bottom of the page of the email of tell you friend to use yahoo photo mail..with a yahoo account or vice versa


Are there any known cases of chat spams. In case it happened with you, please tell.

Yes Ofcourse there are many\n\nread this article. i think this include much more you wanna to know.\nI add the whole article. as it is a very good one.\n\n \n\nKeep your friends close and your enemies even closer\n\nThe idea of a web of trust is a great tool for killing annoyances and problems such as spam. You know the idea. We all vouch for each other and as the web grows we accept e-mail from people we, or our friends know. People outside of that web must fill out those anti-spam forms in order to send us e-mail. But, consider the same idea, but only in reverse … such as a web of mistrust for networks and specific nodes that are known to be causing trouble? Imagine a rolling blacklist of attackers and attacker havens that could get applied in simple ACL format to firewalls, IDS tools and border routers.\n\nThe idea must be refined, of course. You need rules for getting on and off the list, how the list would be maintained, and so on. But, a public open-source-style rolling list of attackers could be very useful. It could lead to a much more proactive mechanism for regulating attack traffic and force the attacker community to expend an exponential amount of additional effort and resources to continue to attack sites.\n\nThe idea could even extend into the realm of online chat. A list of known attack accounts could be created, tracked and managed along with accounts that are suspected of chat spams and virus infection. Each account could be assigned a level of mistrust and chat client vendors could include threshold mechanisms into their clients to allow users to be more selective about their chat partners. This could help the safety and surety of organizational acceptance of Internet chat and provide for an additional level of safety that is not present today.\n\nHeck, we could even create webs of mistrust mechanisms for websites that use pop-ups, display pornography or capture inappropriate information through rogue controls and scripts. Databases could be built into search engines to help rank sites by their level of trust or mistrust and browsers could contain threshold mechanisms that enforce these decisions throughout the enterprise. Imagine being able to manage the browser threat by setting a minimum trust threshold for sites your users are allowed to visit. Plus, by pushing this technology to the browser level, we could do away with the need for expensive and computational bottlenecks like filtering proxy servers.\n\nIf you have some ideas about how webs of mistrust might be useful, drop me a line and let me know. I will put the responses together for a follow up article in a few weeks. Until then, keep your enemies close and let everyone know about the bad apples in the barrel.


The obvious answer is most men do not think the "attractive girl" in question will respond favorably to thier advances.

Sulphur originates from volcanic sources, and you can find it deposited as pure sulphur around volcanoes.\n\nGiven time, volcanic rocks can be eroded, and the sulphur would be deposited into sedimentary rocks like marls and limestone, associated with gypsum, celestine, aragonite and calcite.\n\nYou can also have sulphur in the following rock minerals typically as metallic sulphides: copper pyrites, galena, blende, cinnabar; and sulphates:  gypsum and anhydrite (calcium), barytes (barium) and kieserite (magnesium).


Homo sapien  is the scientific term for human being.

God created man, in one sense, by bringing angels to the earth capable of taking on physical forms.  They disregarded their instructions to avoid cohabitation with the pre-human inhabitants of Earth.  They "ate the forbidden fruit", and mankind was the result.


The present Carbon levels on earth have not always been this amount; subsequently, living organisms thousands of years ago could have had dramatically different levels of the Carbon that is used in dating.

Carbon dating relies on the reliable half-life of a carbon isotope, not the amount of carbon present.


I'm working on a international network of volunteers, each community have its own web application

You can use a Web Service.  If you are working with .net, it’s real easy.  It allows you to make network (soap) calls to maintain your data.  (Basically it’s what dave_exby was saying, but easy to implement).  I haven’t worked with it in Apache, but in IIS it is real hands free.  Think of it as computer readable web pages to pass information back and forth.

I'm personally against the death penalty, and am wondering what chemicals are used.  How can this not be considered cruel and unusual?

Usually these three:\nSodium thiopental\nPancuronium/Tubocurarine\nPotassium Chloride\n\nThey get around the 'cruel and unusual' rap because the sodium pentathol (common name) is supposed to knock you right out.  They really have no proof whether it's entirely effective since no one, once the injection has been initiated, has lived.  But I imagine it hurts quite a bit if you're not unconscious by the time your diaphragm collapses and you start to asphyxiate.


Have been treated for depression for the past 3 years.\nTaking Wellbutrin XL and Paxil.\nUnable to gain full mental clarity during the day, feels as though I am in a "haze" all day.\nDon't feel sad necessarily, just feel bad because of the \nmental clarity problem.\nHave tried sleep medications such as Ambien and Lunesta with no good after affects.\nHas anyone else experienced this problem?

As a student nurse, I've just gone thru my psych clinicals, so I feel confident enought to offer this advice:  There are many new antidepressant meds available today. If it was your regular doctor who prescibed your current meds, then I suggest seeing a psychiatrist. A psychiatrist will be completely up to date on all the meds out there, and will have vastly more experience with your specific issues.  I truely believe that 99% of mental illness is biochemical in nature and can be managed by pharmacology.  \n   As for your sleep problems, remember, depression is the cause of irregular sleep patterns and not vice versa.  Ambien and Lunesta are great drugs for most people, but just not you.  People with depression often experience anxiety as well, so perhaps another drug like Xanex will work better at night.  Also you could just try 50mg of diphenhydromine hydrochloride, which is the generic name for Benadryl. That should get you to sleep fast. But be aware that it will dry out your nasel passages and if you take more that 50 mg., it could make you agitated.  My mom did that (she thinks that if 1 pill works good, than 3 or 4 pills will work better). \nGood Luck


ok another way to look at gravity is kind of reverse centrifical force instead of every thing on the outersurface flying away out into space it is pulled into its center  now consider the possability of a greek symbol for infinity a horizontal figure 8 instead of two seprate forces it is one continuous string and at its intersection the fields cause a form of moleculer fusion capable of generation a field of such energetic force that it starts to implode onto itself and attracting all arourd itself generating friction of such mass that it craetes a core of white heat 1000^2 if this could be proven would it change the veiws of relitivity?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n6

This is actually a subtle question. Why is there only one "charge" for gravity? That fundamentally depends on the details of General Relativy and the nature of gravity waves and the graviton. The result, of course, is that there is only one "charge." There is no antimatter.\n\nIt's a little hard to figure out exactly what you mean in the rest of the question. No offense, but punctuation would help. But, suffice it to say that there is only one "charge" of gravity, so the details are moot.

The light may dim with distance from which its coming But how feeble may be infinite of them should make a cumulative effect of the glowing sky.

The main reason is dust in space that absorbs the light.  For instance, we are in a great big spiral galaxy.  Generally, if you look at a spiral galaxy, you see an immense, bright core.  So why don't we see such a core?  It's because of the dust.  The core, if visible, should be right around the constellation of Sagitarius.  But since there's so much dust in the plane of the galaxy, we can't see it in the invisible spectrum.  Astronomers have managed to infer the direction of the center of the galaxy by looking for a type of light (21 cm radiation) that is regualrly produced by astronomical phenomena, and which has an ability to pass more easily through the clouds of dust in space.  By gauging the direction of most of this radiation, they can infer that the bulk of the galaxy is in the direction of Sagitarius.\n\nAnd really, there is "light" coming from all directions, but most of it isn't in the visible range.  Cosmologists have found what is refered to as the 3K (three "degrees" Kelvin--a very cold temperature) radiation background that exists in direction.  This is seen not as the product of stars, but as a remnant of the big bang.\n\nBut most importantly, there are not really "infinite" stars.  The universe, though boundless, is not truly infinite.  There are some mathematical oddities that you find when you try to deal with the infinite and the boundless.  For instance, there are an infinite number of poritive integers, and there are an infinite number of irrational numbers between 0 and 1.  As odd as it seems, there are actually more irrational numbers between 0 and 1 (what my math professor called the "uncountably infinite") than there are positive integers (so-called "countably infinite").  Due to the relativity of simultneity shown by Einstein, one cannot exactlt quantify the total number of stars in the universe at a given point in time, because an observer moving at a different speed and looking at that moment in time would disagree as to which stars had already exploded or not, and which stars had already formed or not.  So while you can really make a definitive statement as to the number of stars, the number is not really infinite in the general sense of the word, as neither is the universe truly infinite.

Where does it go when it is out of season?

From Wikipedia:\n\nOne possible explanation for "flu season" is that, because people are indoors more often during the winter, they are in close contact more often, and this promotes transmission from person to person. Another is that cold temperatures lead to drier air, which may dehydrate mucous, preventing the body from effectively expelling virus particles. The virus may also linger longer on exposed surfaces (doorknobs, countertops, etc.) in colder temperatures. Increased travel and visitation due to the Christmas season may also play a role.

Microsoft put Windows XP on the market in late 2001.  Service packs and bug fixes cannot really be considered new operating systems - they just aggregate a lot of patches and add a few critical enhancements.\n\nApple released Mac OS X 10.0 in early 2001 and has released 4 new versions of the product since that time. The operating systems' graphics capabilities amaze MS-Windows users when they see them. The Microsoft platform will likely not have corresponding graphcs and search capabilities for it until 2007.  Even then, they still might not be a Mac for Mac OS X of 2005 - or even Mac OS X of 2003.\n\nLinux has been through a couple kernel versions since that time, dramatically increasing its capacities to better support enterprise computing and adding huge performance increases in some areas.
