I am deciding between a job at Ernst & Young TSRS and Huron Consulting.  Salaries are comparable, E&Y is a little higher.  Benefits are also pretty similar.\n\nCan anyone give me information that will aid me in my decision between the two companies?

ive never heard of either but i guess go with the one with more money and closer to home


Man I ask some hard questions. \n\nBut seriously, I don't know the answer to this and it'll probably be on the exam.

I'm not familiar with the algorithm, but I'll take a stab at the question. Reconstructing phylogenies genetically has to do with comparing DNA sequences. The mathmatical analysis has to do with determining what is the likelihood that two sequences of DNA can be the same by chance alone. If the odds are that they would be unlikely to be the same by random chance, they would be considered to have had a common ancestor.\n\nYou can think about the probabilities here. If you flip a coin twice, the chances of getting heads both times is pretty good. If you flip it a hundred times, the chance of getting heads everytime is diminishingly small. \n\nThe algorithm probably compares DNA sequences and determines how likely it is that they are related, and how closely related. I don't do this kind of work, so someone else may know specifically, but this would be the idea.


I'm curious to know which is better, rotissere leagues or head-to-head. Also, in those leagues, what's more important to have, pitching or hitters? Any other advice you could provide would be great.

I like playing head to head leagues because it's more personal to a face a different owner each week.\nYou need to have a balance of both, but good relief pitching always seems to be in short supply.\nKeep up with player news from around the league, especially injuries so you can pickup backups of injured player to strengthen weak spots on your own roster.


portable... wearable... xmas lights... thats what I want.

Buy a DC to AC inverter.  These are used in cars to convert the 12 Volt car battery to 110 V AC to power things like TVs and power tools.  You can get them in auto parts stores or the automotive section of places like Wal-Mart.  Since these are designed for 12 volts, now you need a 12 Volt battery.  To power a set of lights for more than an hour, get a 12 Volt "gel pack" or "Sealed Lead Acid" battery.  A battery store like "batteries plus" will have them, Radio Shack should too.  Also, they are used for things like Power Wheels cars that Wal-Mart sells for little kids to drive around in.  They only weigh a few pounds.

Why not? Too many teens try to grow up too fast. You have the rest of your life to be an adult! Enjoy your youth and imagination. Have fun!


Availability of customizable context-dependent code highlights is a MUST. Ability to define folder with project classes and navigate through classes tree would be a great plus.

Hi spaceman! :O)\n\nI've tried a few.  One I would reccomend to you would be at http://open-perl-ide.sourceforge.net/ . It's a free Perl IDE w/ highlighting :O)  You can also find a similiar editor at http://www.indigostar.com/perledit.html&e=912\n\nIf you are comfortable with the IDE from Visual Studio, it may be nice to check out http://www.activestate.com/Products/Visual_Perl/ - This does include a classes/objects/etc. tree too :O)\n\nhttp://user.bahnhof.se/~johanl/perl/Oasis/ is a program which will help you navigate through your classes/subroutines through a tree too. :O)\n\nI hope one of these can help you.. :O) Good luck!


Why doesn't the federal government set reasonable gun control laws for ALL states?  Why do some states have no minimum age limit while others do?  Why do some states have intensive background checks while others only have the bare minimum?

It has to do with the Second Amendment giving ONLY the states and NOT the Federal Government the right to regulate a militia and to the extension of gun ownership.  \n\nAmendment II \n\nA well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.


Hi, I go to an Academy and there's a woman I like. I think she is over 22 years old but less than 30. She is quite beautiful and don't think she has boyfriend cuz she is from Georgia(Middle Esast). I once spoke to her on the lift bu then I haven't spoke any more, (Just greetings). I would like to be her FRIEND at least if Love is not possible due to age difference. What Can i do to aproach and Speak to her. Will it be easy for us to become friends? We're in Spain. Barcelona.

well, how i make friends are by talking to them constantly and stop immediately when u found that she is being impatient and annoyed. offer little gifts seldomly and tell jokes to her. most woman like funny guys.

(Not sure which category to put it into...!)

I have actually suffered through War & Peace TWICE.  I read it in 8th grade (primarily just to say that I had done it) and again my freshman year of college.  Although I got more out of it the second time, overall I wasn't too taken aback by it.  The plot drags at times and the overarching theme of predestination runs contrary to my personal beliefs.  Further, (to mock Final Fantasy 7) the book has "a cast of thousands" which, considering most of them are not significant to warrant having names, makes their background and side stories seem trite and out of place.


looking for training classes ones with finacial assistance

I went to a school called CDS in Woodford, VA.  They offer financial help.  She (the owner) even paid for hotel rooms for the out of state students (when I was there, there were a lot of students there from DC).\n\nCDS is like 45 minutes North of Richmond, VA.  \n\nOf course some trucking companies like Schneider, C.R. England, and PAM Transport will pay for you to go.  The only reason why I ruled that option out is because I did not want to be obligated to one of these big OTR companies, since I have to do short hauls (local runs) right now.\n\nLM

Bill 5130 went to the committee on 9/2005 for review.  Last I knew it had not made it to the senate to be voted on. I am wondering if anyone has any updated info.  I cannot even find news articles on it that reflect which way it is leaning.

The bill has not left the committe, and at this point it most likely won't. It's not possible to know why it hasn't left the committe or what different members of the committee think of the bill, since their meetings are generally not public.


Picking up Amare is the right choice. However do NOT expect him to see any playing time until the last week in February or the first week in March. The Suns are going to side with caution to be close to 100% certain he's fully recovered before giving him action. His knee is progressing well, but the Suns need him for the end of the season and the playoffs so anything earlier is literally out of the question!


I know I need to lose weight but I just can't get motivated.

Passion\n\nI've received the question about motivation to workout several times. A bit back, I emailed a fellow who simply wished the question of motivation could be answered.\n\nI think the ultimate key to motivation is:\n\nPassion\n\nYes, p-a-s-s-i-o-n\n\nWithout that burning desire to succeed, most things will elude you. Desire comes from an interest that can grow into passion.\n\nIf you have a passion for something, you'll do whatever it takes to be successful. Without it, you'll only be partly committed and only partly successful.\n\nTake a look at any major sports star or entertainer, the passion they have for their sport is obvious. It is what drives them to succeed and motivates them to give 100%. Without it, they would just be average.\n\nTo be successful in the pursuit of fitness, it needs to become a passion. So if you don't have a strong interest in becoming fit, I suggest you find other activities you do enjoy. Getting fit isn't something anybody does well as a passing interest.\n\nBut do realize that you need to know more about fitness in general before you can develop a real enthusiasm for it. In my case, as I kept learning more and more about training, nutrition and supplements, my interest really started to grow.\n\nAnd understand that you don't need to be obsessive about working out. You can be very successful just doing 45 minutes a session, 3 times a week. You don't need to live in the gym or spend every second thinking about working out.

war or no war? what are we fighting for and over what?

If you agree with the following, send it to your Representative and Senator(s). If you don't agree with all of it, specify what you do agree with when you send them the letter. I hope everyone who reads this will copy this letter and send it to them.\n\nGeorge W. Bush used a recent radio address to denounce the media for disclosing his warrantless wiretaps: "Revealing classified information is illegal, alerts our enemies, and endangers our country." It is illegal to reveal that the federal government is breaking the law? Bush attempted to justify his warrantless wiretaps by invoking a case of two 9/11 hijackers whom the feds failed to trace before the attacks; of course, the justifications were nothing more than transparent excuses to portray himself as "noble in a cause" when he was criminally breaking one of the laws he is supposed to uphold.\n \nIf the judicial branch needs to issue warrants and the like more speedily, then they should do so; it is not necessary to strip people of their rights, the rights that you (and the judges) have sworn to uphold when you swore to uphold the Constitution.\n\nAnd the results of egregious sweeps of alleged "terrorists" is appalling and sickening. Those of Ashcroft alone are utterly disgraceful.\n\n"President" is the title of a servant, not a ruler. If the title is to have respect, it must be earned. Bush apparently thinks that the title is entitlement to do whatever he pleases, and that people who expose his wrongdoings are the criminals, not him. It's time to strip the smug Emperor Bush of his new clothes. \n\nWe are not a democracy, a system of popular vote, not even Congressional vote. We are a Constitutional Republic, a nation of laws -- and certainly not a nation for empire-building, power-seeking figureheads posing as the president of so noble a republic to break its laws and send its young heroes to their death on a false mission in schemes for oil. (It's not Iraq's cinnamon and pickle exports he and his cohorts are after. And obviously it's not bin Laden, either.)\n\nBush has morally raped the mothers, fathers, sisters and brothers of our fallen American heroes and additional thousands of American heroes wounded and maimed. He has sent our heroes on a false mission to kill nearly 100,000 citizens of a foreign country we have no business being in. He has pillaged our treasury. He has made America ugly and hated in the eyes of the civilized world.\n\nCongress folk, I could refer you to a dozen learned authors to read. But you have plenty to read already, and need be reading the pork-laden bills you are passing. The Federal Reserve can only print so much funny money. \n\nHere's a suggestion. Instead of convening a committee, "convene" some learned and intelligent people to make you learned, too: invite them to speak before the entire House, the entire Senate. Listen to these people -- not lobbyists, and, at least for a while, not to each other. I've listed a few names at the end of this letter; they can recommend additional names. For yourselves, call it on-the-job training by people who have time to grow in knowledge and then sit and think about such things. Just because you can't know it all by yourselves is no reason you can't learn from those who know a lot, who know more, who know what you need to know.\n\nYou congress-folk must know by now that you cannot trust what Bush tells you. He can't even hold a town hall meeting without staging it, without filling it with kissy-ups and sycophants. When you have real information instead of Bush's neocon spin doctors, tight-lipped press liason, and media press agents, you can make sage decisions, pass Constitutionally-correct bills, and be the people you should be, the people your constituents want you to be, and as decent a human being as your dogs think you are.\n\nAnd to those who may be thinking "You don't know what it's like ar


What do I do if someone is wanting me to clame next of kin to someone that I do not know and is out of the country

Is this person wanting you to claim next of kin so you can share a bank account with millions of dollars?  This is a very well known scam.  Please read this http://www.snopes.com/crime/fraud/nigeria.asp and see if it seems familiar.\n\nThe person just wants you to say ok, that you'll claim to be kin and agree to give the person a small share of the huge bank account.  This will go on for some weeks with progress reports.  Then he'll need something like $20 just to pay bank fees (and what's $20 if you have millions coming?)  Then he'll need $100 to bribe an official.  Then more and more money.  It's 100% scam.  There is NO chance that there is a bank account in some foreign country will millions of dollars that you can claim.  Really.  Please take care of yourself.


So that the ordinary masses of people feel guilty! And people who feel guilty are more easily led and/or influenced/manipulated.\n\nImagine if you considered yourself innocent and not guilty, why would you need priests to help you in the first place? \n\nYou could directly communicate with a Higher Being. No need for people inbetween. But that would rob the clergy their powers! So they continue to tell us that we have sinned, that we're bad people and that we need THEM to get redemption.\n\nHumbug.


Need a home PC and just wanted to know what people recommend.

Well, there are the usual arguments: PC is used by 99% of the world, most consumer software is written and optimized for the PC, and you'll get much cheaper prices with the PC. \nBut, many people who use the MAC are very, very happy. They cite the cool design, the easier to use applications, and some programs (graphic design, photo and video editing) that are actually optimized for the MAC.  \nSo if you're a normal person - get the PC.\nIf you're into design, or serious graphics and video stuff (or planning to be) get the MAC.


does the anti-bodies of hepatites "c" exisist in the urine of a patient who is completly cured 5 years ago ? , if you drink the pee of such person , will that anti-bodies appear in your blood test as if you are sick with that hepatites ?

The obvious question of "Why?" aside, urine is generally considered to be sterile (no bacteria or fungus).  It is usually an indication of urinary or kidney infection if there are blood cells or infectious agents (bacteria or fungus) in the urine.\n\nIt is possible for the urine to become contaminated with bacteria and fungi when it comes in contact with skin (penis, foreskin, labia, etc.)  \n\nContrary to other suggestions, antibodies can be found in the urine (there is an IgG HIV antibody test that detects the presence of HIV antibodies in the urine).  However, HCV antibodies in your wife's urine would not cause them to appear in your blood.  Is your wife's HCV RNA undetectable by the most sensitive assay available after treatment?  If so, then there is no risk of transmission of HCV.\n\nThere are a number of fetish sites for those into "golden showers"  I'm sure you can find more info with a quick web search.


My GF and I we're together for 5 and a half yrs.\nShe got a job in another city (about 60 miles away).\nWe were supposed to move together and (maybe) get married.\nNow she's telling me that she'll move to see a bit of life and that I should wait for 3 mo for her to come back.\nShould I Wait or Should I Go (as Wham sez)?

Dude... it as easy as reading your letter... The relationship is over and she just wants to drag it out to see if she can find someone else and compare awhile (and it sounds like she already has).Anytime someone moves on like this the relationship is never the same anyway. It will alway be unequal and ultimately a drama field to play in... with her holding all the chips.Tell her what SHE WANTS TO HEAR AND MOVE ON...because this is what she seems like she is doing to you rite now.  Remember you have been in a 5 yr relationship and probably need a break anyway.Is this a pattern with her? Does she alway dangle carrots and rattle bones?It sounds like the old shell game, which one is she under ,wonder wonder...wonder. You are young and will find someone else because you sound like a good, descent person. So good luck and be strong...\nyou will find someone else..dont wait three months before you start looking...go on.. do it because you can always swear you didnt..listen get your chips too because you got to get them.. your gonna need as much momentum as you can  to get back into the swing of dating... the wiz


I have some musical sofware that was gotten by way of an torrent. Now I have 4 seperate files and Im not sure of how to make them work. Software is  fruityloops.

A torrent is like an AVI file, only much much larger, and it takes a MUCH longer time to download. (2-3 days etc) Even with a DSL computer. Torrents are mainly used for downloading movies and TV episodes, and a BiTorrent program is required to view it. (It's kinda like P2P)

You can find them on eBay, but they cost more than $500.00.\n\n-Cory\n\n\nOn July 14, 1969, David M. Kennedy, the 60th Secretary of the Treasury, and officials at the Federal Reserve Board announced that they would immediately stop distributing currency in denominations of $500, $1,000, $5,000 and $10,000. Production of these denominations stopped during World War II. Their main purpose was for bank transfer payments. With the arrival of more secure transfer technologies, however, they were no longer needed for that purpose. While these notes are legal tender and may still be found in circulation today, the Federal Reserve Banks remove them from circulation and destroy them as they are received.

I am most interested in what the poll figures are in the United States and in Russia.

If you’re a believer in facts, scientific methods, and empirical data, the picture is depressing. \n\nA recent survey by the Pew Forum on Religion and Science found that 64 percent of respondents support teaching creationism side by side with evolution in the science curriculum of public schools. A near majority—48 percent—do not believe that Darwin’s theory of evolution is proven by fossil discoveries. Thirty-three percent believe that a general agreement does not exist among scientists that humans evolved over time.

Dogfire:\n\nYou need to be commended for being honest. A lot of guys will follow orders but not say what they are REALLY thinking for fear of retailiation from other troops, commanders, society, etc. So, here's what you might want to consider. I think you should go back because you made the commitment to do so and you'd look like a traitor if you didn't. However, the truly patriotic thing to do is to speak up, let the world know exactly how you feel AS A SOLDIER about what is happening. Make your feelings known. Go back, do your job, but be a patriot: a true patriot in a democratic society will challenge the status quo, will question authority, will speak up when things seem wrong. That is the RIGHT thing to do...fulfill your commitment, but make your voice heard, doing so will bring you dignity, integrity, and admiration.

Due to the passing of the Patriot Act many offenses that would not have been revealed to the public are now easy access for anyone who runs a background check on you.  I have been told that after 7 years midemeanors will no longer appear on these background checks. I'd like to confirm that if someone knows for sure. I know that a felony charge will stay on public record forever. So if it was originally a felony case, but then reduced to a misdemeanor what rule applies?  The conviction would be a misdemeanor so that should apply, but you just never know.

The Patriot Act did no such thing.  Before, and after, the Patriot Act, any offense committed by a citizen and prosecuted by the government was a public record, and it could be accessed by anyone who requested information about it.\n\nThere are two ways that something does not appear on your public record.  The first is if the offense is made non-public at the time of the hearing.  This happens with some incidents involving minors, or first-time drug possession disputes, or other offenses.  If a court determines you are eligible for a non-public record, the court may seal the record and make it available to the public only upon a good-cause showing to the court.\n\nIf you have exceeded a certain number of years since an offense took place, you may request to have your record expunged.  A court may determine that your record should no longer bear the hallmark of a minor infraction from many years ago.\n\nDepending on your state, the length of time may vary.  Otherwise, any and every criminal offense you commit, misdemeanor or felony, will be available to the public upon request at any time, to anyone who asks.  The Patriot Act did not change this.  You'll have to consult state law or the court where the conviction took place to request it expunged.

For an online company, located in a small rural area, that has been in business for over 5 years, how does one go about attracting venture capital funds and investors?

Venture Capital is just another name for private investor. There are some private investor groups but they are not well advertised. Typically a venture capitalist does not engage in the business of private investing because there is usually no or very little return on the investment. They expect to get their money back at best. That's why it is hard to find them, it's not a business. However, there are some organizations that provide business resources, councilling, consulting, advice, and these are usually staffed by successful business people. The chamber of commerce in your city and the state will provide you with local information. Often, those groups will point you in the right direction for fund raising. Another resource is to join a country club and/or a golf club where business executives tend to favor. Networking is key to many aspects of business success. To get your online business producing sales revenues you can hire a professional online marketing company and put me to work making you money. My contact information is provided in the source link below.


Is there an 800 number where parents of bipolar adult children can at least share their experiences? I ahve a 23 year old daughter who has me at my wits end. Between the suicide attempts and her drug friends dying of overdoses... are there any places out here where I can talk about such stuff with other parents who have been there- done that?

Another place to "talk" to others is the mental health sanctuary online. \n\nhttp://www.mhsanctuary.com\n\nThey have postings and areas for families of people with various mental health disorders. They have an area of resources for books and materials and a list of counselors as well.\n\nHope that this helps!


One constitutes an inch of rain? Can I put a glass jar outside and measure the amount of rain in it, or is there a uniform size for the measuring device?

There is indeed a standardized method of measuring rain. The soure below has detailed information about how it is made. There are also other rain gauges, such as weighing gauges and a tipping bucket gauge. They're described in the other source.


in my own opinion, i feel that is societys fault..  the world has changed to where society is teaching people to be selfish  self absorbed,basicly non caring about no one but themselves.....I myself have seen so many changes in this world and i believe that as a whole,,the human race is becoming anti social


I gave 60-day notice on 11/16/05 and returned the keys on 11/23/05.  I paid my December rent in full on 12/1/05 and the landlord just mailed me a letter saying the apartment had not been rented yet.  Am I required by law to pay the full month amount on January 1 or only through 1/15?  Is the landlord required to make an effort to make the apartment ready for new tenants and place ads prior to the end of my 60-day notice?  As of 12/1 it had not been painted and the caretaker was upset that she was not able to go in and touch it up until after it was painted.  The ads said it would be available AFTER 12/15.

Landlord-tenant legislation in the US is governed by state law.  You need to post the state and country that you are talking about because they are all different.  \n\nIF YOU ARE ON A LONG-TERM LEASE:\nIn most states, the landlord is permitted to charge you for the entire lease period, except if the lanlord or an agent of the landlord accepts your move-out notice, which it appears that he did, because he didn't contact you that it was rejected, he advertisted it as available on 12/15, and he accepted your keys.  So, in that case you should be of the hook on the date mentioned in the notice.\n\nIF YOU ARE ON MONTH-TO-MONTH:\nIf you are on a month-to-month lease, most leases\state laws say that that you are required to give at least 20 days written notice prior to the beginning of the next calendar month or the lease renews itself. \n\nSo technically by giving your notice on 11/16 you are freeing yourself from a month-to-month lease as of 1/1.  However if your notice said you would remain 60 days, so the landlord could hold you liable for payment up until 1/15.  If he had your keys on 11/23 and you were on a month to month, I think it's kind of jerky to charge you from 1/1 to 1/15.  \n\nI don't see any way the landlord could collect from you for the period of 1/16-1/31 unless they argue that your notice was improper, or that they did not accept your notice, in which case they should have sent you a letter saying so, shouldn't have taken your keys, and shouldn't have placed an ad in the paper saying that it would be available on 12/15.  \n\nIn short, I think that you would have a tough time PROVING you're not responsible for 1/1 to 1/15, but if you were on a month to month lease you should write a very nice letter asking them not to charge you for this because you moved out in november.\n\nIf they tried to make you pay for 1/15-1/30 you are on pretty solid ground.  They would have a hard time getting a judge to agree you are liable for 1/15-1/30, due to accepting your notice and keys, and the ad in the paper.  So by not paying that I think that the only thing you risk is a bad rental history.\n\nI don't know of any requirement in any state that says the landlord has to advertise or make the apartment available.\n\nPS:  You must verify this with a lawyer before you act on this answer, which is not legal advice.


i always see my bf on week days aat the boys and girls club and when i went there one day i heard som1 say that he was cheeting on me with a girl named shelby so i talked to shelby and she said yes but i tried not to belive it intell when i tryed to ask brad he sayed "hell no!" should i belive him?

Well you should believe what people is telling you because if you go on in that relationship you're having and then you see him with that girl is going to hurt you, and its better to let it go now even though it will hurt but not as much if you found out that it is true


Did they have larger cranial capacities than us?\nIsn't it against EVOLUTIONARY LINAGE?

In the respect of survival instincts, yes.\nArtist's renditions show a seemingly larger cranial capacity/cranium so your argument would be true.\nIntelligence like beauty is in the eyes of the beholder or in this case the user.\nI doubt that no modern man could survive in Cro-Magnon Man's Era, meaning he would be less intelligent as to the norms of the time.\nI would like a debate on Technology versus Survival.\nSorry for the Rant Batman, but you pose some interesting questions.

I don't understand much about RSS, so could someone give a general overview/description of what RSS is and how it works please? Do you just get headlines, or is it the full story?

RSS feeds are usually just the headline scrolling across some sort of RSS News Viewer.  However, depending on the viewer, you might have a link to click to read more info.\n\nMy modified xbox runs XBMC (A special dashboard or operating system)  It takes a link to an RSS feed in the configuration, and on the main home screen it displays a list of news articles on the RSS feed.\n\nSee:\nhttp://www.xml.com/pub/a/2002/12/18/dive-into-xml.html\n\nhttp://rssview.sourceforge.net/


Christmas is far too commerical and seems to ignore is true sense of a master remove from such a material driven world...

True Christians are not. one of the very foundations of Christianity is that the material, physical world is but fleeting; a true Christians reward is to be found in heaven.\n  Hope that helps!


I am either getting fat or I am pregnant.  I have been having periods but they are shorter and later than they used to be.  I used a urine test but it came back negative (you should know that all of my mother's test came back negative until she got a blood test)in September.  I am okay either way but really don't have money to go to the doctor if I'm not pregnant. Has anyone heard of this problem before? Can anyone offer any helpful advice?

There are a few different reasons for having irregular periods including hormonal imbalance, infection, and stress. It would be best to see your doctor to see what is going on.


I recently applied to a grocery store nearby online. The application asks silly questions like "would you fire someone for stealing less than thirty dollars?" and other qustions that try to determine if you are a potential thief or ones about how much you want to serve people, trying to tell if you are willing to let customers annoy you. I answered these with the obvious answers of yes and I want to make others happy, Is this wrong, despite not necesarily illegal(oh trust me, it is not illegal...).

As long as you're not lying about facts (like other jobs that you've had that may be more suited for this particular position, or extra work experience that you didn't actually have), it's not only ethical, it's necessary to tell them what they want to hear. I've had to write cover letters for jobs before and most of them were basically the paraphrased wanted ad from the position that i was applying for.  You are basically trying to sell yourself as the best candidate for the job, so answer the questions to make the best possible impression.


How can a person who knows almost nothing about a group of people be so quick to judge them and say racist remarks about them?

Its because they know almost nothing about a group of people, people who don't understand people either try to understand people or choose the easier rout and simply hate them.  Mostly they don't want to understand these people because even before they know anything about these people, they feel threatened or scared.  Whether it be because the threat of lost jobs, terrorism, or something else.  Hate is just the easier path despite it not being the better one, and as for War its the larger scale of that hate.

How fast do I have to run to out-run a mosquito that trying to bite me?

A mosquito flies an estimated 1 to 1.5 miles per hour. \n\nHere are some other fascinating mosquito facts. You'll notice, that a mosquito can smell you or another host from 20 to 35 meters away. So if you run fast enough to put more than that distance between you and the mosquito, then hopefully it will lose your signal and give up the chase!\n\nQ: How many species of mosquitoes are there? \nA: About 2,700.\n\nQ: And how many are resistant to at least one insecticide? \nA: More than 50.\n\nQ: What does a mosquito weigh? \nA: About 2 to 2.5 milligrams (for an Aedes aegypti).\n\nQ: How much blood does a female mosquito drink per, er, serving? \nA: About 5-millionths of a liter (for an Aedes aegypti).\n\nQ: How do mosquitoes find new hosts? \nA: By sight (they observe movement); by detecting infra-red radiation emitted by warm bodies; and by chemical signals (mosquitoes are attracted to carbon dioxide and lactic acid, among other chemicals).\n\nQ: How fast can a mosquito fly? \nA: An estimated 1 to 1.5 miles per hour.\n\nQ: How far away can a mosquito smell you or another host? \nA: 20 to 35 meters.\n\nQ: Why does a film of oil on water kill mosquito larvae? \nA: Because the oil clogs up the snorkel that the larvae use to breathe.\n\nQ: When do mosquitoes feed? \nA: Day-time. Night-time. And all times in-between. Truthfully, some species prefer different times of day or night. This behavior may have evolved to match the host's behavior.

When I lift weights really hard, my ears have started to hurt.  The pain goes away when I take a break.  It feels the same way that changing elevation makes the ears feel and unfortunately for me, swallowing does not help.  Does anyone know what this could be?  I am in my mid 30's and not overweight.

YOU DAMN STUD...Your lifting such heavy weights and your looking so good your head is swelling. You see your sub conscience knows that all the women in the gym want you and all the guys fear you and jealous of how high your bench is......


I am the maid of honor in a wedding this upcoming February, and I ate all through the holidays! My girlfriend gave me a bottle, but I wanted to make sure it worked before I used it.

I took Trimspa for about a week... and I'll be honest... I lost weight.. but I was in the bathroom at least 10 times a day... I think it makes all your supposed water weight come out to make you feel lighter.  If you have a job to where you can run to the bathroom every half hour... then go for it! I'm a bank teller.. and sometimes it's kinda hard to get away from my station.  Also, another thing... when I took the pills, which was usually in the morning before work... I felt as if something in my chest was burning right after I took them.  I'm not sure if it was because they were going down my throat or not... but it was SO scary! And sometimes I felt like I was having chest pains! It's not a nice feeling... but people are different! All I can say is try it for a few days... if you like it... keep going.. if you don't... STOP! That's what I did.  It was great I lost a few pounds but the feeling I had when I took them and the bathroom breaks was not worth it.  I'll just stay chunky.  My fiance loves me for who I am.  Good luck hunny! :)

i love a person so much from three years both of us we're facing a problem.. he has to travel abroad to work and educate then he promised me to come back for me.. we are in contact..is he always going to love me forever???

Love is difficult and a pain in the ass. It's up to the two of you to make you love last. Love is work. Work to get it and work to keep it. Make sure your arguments are not petty but of some legitament reasons. Jealousy and insecurity are like cancer to relationships. Trust is the cure. Trust in God and yourself.


me and my friend got a photo sent 2 us from an internet guy and there were 8 spirits in the photo why ? were they warning us or was the photo stuffed  up? but the weird thing was only me and her could really c it and we swear after a wile the pic would chage answer my Quiton plzzzzzzz

I'm only responding to this because I'm so horrified by how brutally you murdered the spelling of "Question."\n\nQwestion, kewstchun, questchun, I can see those as being reasonable options for someone who profoundly dyslexic.\n\nHowever, "Quiton" is in a category of its own. Notice that it is capitalized, despite being in the middle of a sentence. Absolutely brilliant.\n\nYou're not going to understand this next part, but please understand that you are the reason that Americans will be building Chinese cars in two decades.\n\nAs for your question:\n\n1) Don't talk to "internet guys." They only want one thing.\n\n2) There is no such thing as spirits.\n\nPlease get a grip ladies (and a dictionary.)

Living in a dorm all the way.\n\nIt is important to learn the skills of living on your own before you are completely thrust out to live on your own. People grow up faster in my experience if they have to live in the dorms. Plus that way there is no commute and you have quick access to all the educational and social resources. Be careful about spending too much time with friends and making poor decisions. Those can come back to bite you without your parents looking over your shoulder. Act like a responsible adult and you should be fine.


They do not run advertisements on Blogger, but they have to pay server fees...How do they make any money to keep such a service?

They don't make money out of Blogger per say.  But they want more traffic from users to create "portal loyalties" so that these users can then be "channeled" to other Google services which bring in ad revenues.\n\nJust like Yahoo created Answers for us to get "hooked" on to the Yahoo network.

I had a freaky thing happen to where my vision in one eye looked green for about 5-10 minutes, I went to a opthtlamic neurologist and he did a MRI on me and some kind of light field test and I passed both. I have some symptoms that also could be related to MS, occassionally I have bandlike feelings around my upper thigh if I have been standing in one spot for most of the day and tingling in my arms if I hold them up long or lay on them wrong. Should I worry about this? Or do you think it's more of poor circulation?

Do you loose vision, the ability to talk, the ability to smell, feel, taste, or hear?  Do you loose control of any of your body parts, such as legs, arms, neck, waiste, ect?\n\nIf you answered yes to any of these, i would be concerned.  As of right now, though, if you answered no, i wouldn't be too concerned.  I would, hwoever, go in for a complete physical.

In the late '80s early '90s I ran across a book that discussed, among other things, flying carpets that appear in some paintings or art from India.  The book was in the same section with von Daniken's books in the library but was not written by him.  In the book was a reference to a sound produced by the movement, I guess, of the liquid mercury resulting from the influence of a spinning magnet in close proximity.

This is a long shot but specifically mentions Indian literature, flying carpets, mercury and magnets: http://www.ufoevidence.org/documents/doc161.htm\n\nHere is one other reference: http://www.jan-pajak.com/1e_pdf/1e_3.pdf

I'm looking to find out about my father Robert Cecil Snyder Sr. He died when me and my twin brother were four months old in the year of 88 But lately I've been wondering about him. I have the picture of him when he fought in the war and I just want to know more. When he died he didn't even know who I was and my mom won't tell me anything. If you do happen to know about my dad please I'd love to hear about it anything. I need to know I've spent almost eight-teen years without no father on father's day and like to know something about him other than he fought in a war and his name. My mom says I look like him but I want to know more. Please help me find information if you can. Please anything will help. Thank you.

I think/thought it was GOO GOO DOLLS. But if you listen to the singers voice and accent, it doesn't sound the same. I downloaded the song but it lists no artist/group.

I've always heard that a zoologist studies unfound creatures, has a zoologist actually ever found a unknown species or is a crock profession?

Yes, actually, it is called cryptozoology, the study of hidden animals.  They study things like Loch Ness Monster, Chupacabra, Mothman, and the Yeti.  A zoologist is just a person who studies animals.

Suddenly, he never is able to make any time to spend together.

Guys tend to express lack of interest by avoiding time together, not being as intimate with you, and being unclear about any future plans.\n\nIf he is a decent guy, I think you should be able to get a direct response to the question "is there something wrong lately?  I feel like you are being a bit distant".  List the reasons you think so, and ask whether you are being ridiculous or not.\n\nI suggest doing that soon, rather than waiting and analizing everything he does.  You will drive yourself nuts, and likely cause the relationship to end on a bad note as your angry/fear/worry all get bottled up until they explode (usually not in a positive way).\n\nI hope it works out for you.  Talk to him.  If you can't do that, it's not a relationship anyway.


A married woman says iam the father of her child. I asked for the pernity test from child services. I've received nothing.They're constently sending me correspondence on taking finances from me. I was told about the Bastard law. The child doesn't have my name and Child services has tried twice to get the mother and child out for the test. I need to know how the law applies in my case?

well let me tell you, I have been through my share of crap concerning things similar and I also used to type up birth certificates in a maternity ward. If at the time of birth the mother was married to this guy she's married to now, the child would have to have his name even he was not the father, that's the law! and also you are not legally responsible for anything right now unless ordered by a judge. the person whose name is on the birth certificate is responsible and you all are gonna end in court over this, trust me....

It can mean a number of things. Most likely, you heard a loud noise in your sleep and incorporated it into your dream for a second before waking up-- maybe car noises from outside? It's also possible that you were having a bad dream and made yourself wake up when something loud happened in your dream.


Is it true that "Raining Cats and Dogs" refers to so much rain that the animals would climb on the roof and fall off?

1. It comes from mythology. Witches, who often took the form of their familiars - cats, are supposed to have ridden the wind. Dogs and wolves were attendants to Odin, the god of storms and sailors associated them with rain.\n\nWell, some evidence would be nice. There doesn't appear to be any to support this notion.\n\n2. The phrase is supposed to have originated in England in the 17th century when city streets were filthy and heavy rain would occasionally carry along dead animals.\n\nThe idea that seeing a dead cats and dogs floating by in storms would cause people to coin this phrase is far fetched, but just about believable.\n\n3. Another suggestion is that it comes from a version of the French word, catadoupe, meaning waterfall. \n\nReturning to facts rather than idle speculation we do know that the phrase was in use in a modified form in 1653, when Richard Brome's The City Wit, has the line "It shall raine .. Dogs and Polecats".\n\nPolecats aren't cats as such but the jump between them in linguistic rather than veterinary terms isn't large. \n\nI like the idea of number 2, what do you think?


You can choose out of a variety. What do colleges want?

Colleges generally don't care which ones you take, you should take those that you think you'll do well in. However, if you're planning on majoring in a specific thing, you should plan on taking the SAT subject tests in them (such as math, physics, history, english lit, etc). If you're taking US History now, you should plan on taking the test in May or June, as is the same thing with any classes you're taking. Talk to your teachers and buy the help books.


Sometimes there is a backup at the door while these people check receipts and look inside people's bags to verify their purchase. My feeling is, I've already stood in line once to pay: these items are now MINE and I'm not stanting in line again.

just go around the others standing in line and if you bleep walking out the door then they have to check you they should only be checking the people that have large carryout items not just sacks unless the alarm goes off


where can i find the full text of that article?

It's very unlikely you will find it on the internet I did find the quote a number of times but it is actually "in the future computers may weigh less than 1.5 tons"  which is a little accurate, 30lbs for a desktop and what and on average 8lbs for a laptop both less than 1.5 tons.  Anyway, you aren't likely to find it online.  Unless you know someone who has that issue you are most likely out of luck, unless someone took it and scanned it somewhere.  Well, Google is a good place to start, good luck!

what's the scientific cause,cure end excercises for chondromalacia?

Chondromalacia Patella is often used by physicians as a catch-all term to describe anterior knee pain that results from patellar malalignment. The strict definition, however, is simply the degeneration of the cartilage on the posterior aspect of the kneecap.\n\nFor the sake of brevity, I have put sites here that you can go to where you can find information directly linked to this issue.


can you, then prove it to me... im waiting..........

it's only true if 8 is holding 12's spot.  then, when you're ready to solve, 12 comes back, thanks 8 for waiting in line, 8 goes off to do whatever the hell 8's do.. then the final answer is 6.


This format is too limiting.  Is there a good public phyics forum that I can ask questions and get answers?

It depends on what you mean by size.  Photons are odd.  They have no measurable mass, yet do have energy, momemtum, and of course wavelength and frequency.  Photon interaction occurs in the very small scale, so you have to look to quantum physics as well.\n\nThere is no standard "size" of a photon, in terms that use our standard frames of reference.  You can try to approximate the location of a photon with Schrodinger's wave equation.  That gives a probability distribution.  Related to that is Heisenberg's uncertainty principle, which states that you can only know the combination of momentum or position of small "particles" to a maximum certainty.  If you know more about the momentum, you will know less about the position, and vice-versa.  There is a fundamental "quantum" effect going on here, in that space is not exactly continuous in this small scale (or for that matter, engergy, mass etc).\n\nIf you loosen the definition of "size" to mean something more like "heft", then you can think of high-energy photons (like gamma or cosmic rays) as being "bigger".  They have more momentum and energy, although the wavelength is shorter.\n\nIn summary I think that photons operate on such a quantum scale that I think "size" doesn't exactly correspond to our common notion of size.


TMB = tetramethylbenzidine,\nDMSO = dimethylsulphoxide

The pH of DMSO should be around 7.  I would dissolve the TMB at a very high concentration (100-1000 times the concentration you would like as the final) in DMSO at pH 7 and then add just a small amount of this concentrate to your sample at pH4.5.  Otherwise, you could dissolve the TMB in DMSO at pH 7 and then titrate the pH of the TMB/DMSO solution down to 4.5 using HCl.\n\nAnother possibility would be to try adding a lower concentration of TMB to your sample.  A protocol for TMB usage in ELISA can be found on the Molecular Probes website (https://www.invitrogen.com/content/sfs/manuals/00-2023.pdf)

if you look at road signs in other speaking countries the english is the main wording you see then underneath that is their national language

There days where a single flush is successfull and the spiral of the water is awsome. There are day when it takes a minimum of two flushes to eliminate that left over turd!

The moons gravity is what causes ocean waves. It affects big bodies of water such as oceans or seas but as for water in a toilet I highly doubt because if you think about it, the moon's gravity doesn't effect pond water. The only thing that would affect toilet water is water pressure, and on the global scale the Corriolis Effect. But that only effects the direction of the water when flushed. So the most probable cause is the water pressure of your city.

My son was wrestling for a varsity spot on his high school team when he lost two points for technical violations. He lost the wrestle off by 1 point. Was this right???

yes they should... if your wrestling for a varsity spot you have to be competing like a varsity wrestler.  the same rules apply as a dual meet or tournament.  scoring is the exact same the only difference may be the tech fall amount.  some coaches make it a 10 pt techfall.  other than that everything else is the same including technical viloations. ie locked hands,illegal headlocks, cursing, anything along those lines


The disease where the body can´t absorb any gluten in food, and if eating accidentally too much of it, it causes diarea, blisters on the skin and up to 20%  higher risk of cancer in various parts of the body. It can brake out any time of life and is NOT listed as an allergy, but as a genetic disease.

Diagnosis\n\nTests\nThe gold standard test for coeliac disease is still upper endoscopy with biopsy of the distal duodenum or jejunum. To avoid false negative results, the first endoscopy must be done while the patient is on a normal, gluten-containing diet or very shortly after going on a gluten-free diet. Sometimes the endoscopy is repeated after the patient has been on a gluten-free diet, in order to ensure that the bowel has healed. However, upper endoscopy always carries a risk of false negative results. This is because coeliac disease may or may not damage villi throughout the entire small intestine, and upper endoscopy only examines the upper part of the intestine. In a patient whose intestinal damage is located further down, the biopsy may come back negative. If the endoscopy is positive the diagnosis is confirmed, but if it is negative, the diagnosis is not necessarily excluded.\n\nSerology has been proposed as a screening measure, because the presence in the blood of IgA antibodies reactive against gluten and tissue transglutaminase is indicative of coeliac disease. Like the endoscopy, these tests are not accurate in patients who have been on a gluten-free diet for some time; they must be performed while the person is on a normal diet or within a relatively short time after eliminating gluten. A thorough workup includes four tests:\n\nAnti-tissue Transglutaminase Antibody (tTG), IgA. This test is sometimes used alone. If this test is positive it is highly likely that the patient has celiac disease. tTG test is not reliable in children before the age of 2. \nAnti-Gliadin Antibodies (AGA), IgG and IgA. These tests are often useful when testing young symptomatic children, but they are found in fewer coeliacs than Anti-tTG, and their presence does not automatically indicate coeliac disease because they are found in some other disorders. Some people have an IgA deficiency that causes a false negative test; due to this and other factors, the IgA test has a relatively high rate of false negatives. \nAnti-Endomysial Antibodies (EMA), IgA. This test is being replaced by the Anti-tTG test because both tests measure the autoantibodies that cause the tissue damage associated with coeliac disease. Many physicians still order this test. This test as tTG test is also not reliable in children before the age of 2. \nAnti-Reticulin Antibodies (ARA), IgA. Anti-ARA is not ordered as frequently as it once was, because it is less sensitive and less specific than the other tests. It is found in about 60% of people with coeliac disease and 25% of those with dermatitis herpetiformis. \nMany doctors will not consider positive blood tests as definitive proof of coeliac disease, but will still require biopsy confirmation. A growing minority consider coeliac disease to be diagnosed where the patient has positive blood tests and shows improved symptoms after the adoption of a gluten-free diet. Because upper endoscopies are uncomfortable, expensive, and may produce false negative results, this group of doctors considers serology tests and a positive response to eliminating gluten from the diet to be sufficient for diagnosis. A small minority of doctors advocate gluten-free diets even for symptom-free patients who have not had an endoscopy but have had a positive blood test, because some confirmed coeliacs are completely symptom-free throughout their lives; in symptom-free patients, the purpose of the diet is to avoid nutritional deficiencies, osteoporosis, and intestinal lymphoma.\n\nOther tests that may assist in the diagnosis are a full blood count, electrolytes, renal function and liver enzymes. Coagulation testing may be useful to identify deficiency of vitamin K, which predisposes patients to hemorrhage.


I know it is still puzzles leading scientists on the medical field, but I wonder what induces our cells do degenerate into such a terrible state.

He spent $40 on me.  Should I spend the same or make it a point to spend a little less?

you must still be friends?  or did he just happen to get you a gift maybe trying to get ya back...if its friends then what ever you think he will like..i dont think the cost matters i think its the thought...if he is just tring to get you back..then no need to get him ne thing..........depends on if you want him around or not i guess\nbut dont spend 40 dollars just to spend it...find something he likes even if its 4 bucks...it could mean a lot more.


I have sent all three agencies correct information but they still haven't got it right.  any body know what's going on?

Credit reporting agencies are required to research possible inacurate information. If information cannot be verified, it must be removed. If they can prove the information is real, I would be concerned that the item is from identity theft. If it is from a delinquent payment that was made on-time, that is something that you have to take up with the creditor, since their records will indicate it as late and will inform the reporting agency that when they verify it. If you are unable to reach a resolution, you may file a complaint with your state's Banking Department.

Maryland is a "At Will" work state so there is nothing I can do about being terminated. But I am concerned about any follow up actions taken by my previous employer. I do not have the resources to fight them in court. The descrepancies are more a misunderstanding than fraud and under $12,000 over a three year period.

Your best bet is to lawyer up.  Retain a lawyer and get prepared for them to press charges.  They will, no doubt, pursue this. $12,000 is a lot of money, and they have to set an example for their other employees.


i just read a book and they used the word normal a lot and im kindof confused about what normal really is

Everyone is normal(with the exception of the mentally disturbed). The concept of normalcy is in and of itself flawed. People are so varied that finding an absolute mean average for all of their characteristics would be nearly so difficult as to be impossible, not to mention boring.\n\nIn short it is actually our millions of differecnes that make us all normal.


If I would like to test and try to sell Original T Shirts.\n\nShould I begin with just putting listings ? \nShould I open a store from day one ?\nWhat looks more credible to the buyer ?

Begin with things no longer needed around your home, ask friends and family if they have things to donate to you to sell. Everyone has stuff laying around. Just use things you have laying around to start with. It will give you practice and you will soon learn how to write the descriptions and make sure you put good pictures for people to view your item. That is the only way they know your product is really what they are looking for, remember a picture tells 1000 words as long as it shows what you are selling. \n\nHope this help and good luck with your auctions:)


Its been 6 months since we have been together. Do cheaters change? Or is it true once a cheater always a cheater? Im 24 he's 27. I believe he is truly sorry. But that is no exscuse or reason. Would you take him back? Help please.

Do you really want people to be telling you what to take or accept in your life? There is no straight answer when talking about human beings. What worked for one person may not work for you. There is never a golden bullet, neither will narrowing down answers help you either. You know your man. Ask yourself or find answers to why he cheated, and try working it out with him. from there make a decision. Don't look to yahoo answers to get that single bullet for you to solve issues in your relationship


I toled a boy i was 16 when i was only really 14 it stared as a online relationship  and i did not think it would last long but now he is getting a car and comeing to meet me and i am not what he thinks i am how do i let him down with out crushing his heart?

First of all online relationships carry an extra danger. If you do not live near this person or even seen him in real life, he could be lying about a lot of things. (Of course even people you do meet in person could be just as shady but I digress). Secondly, you are 14 and this guy is what? At least 16 or possibley older? Things could get very out of hand very quickly. And by this I mean, if he pressures you in any way or gets you alone who he could rape you or worse. \n\nBut regardless, an appropriate answer is to tell him that you're 14. If he's a decent guy then he should reliaze the inappropriate nature of the relationship,( I again assume that he is older), then he will decide against trying to see this 14 yrs old girl. If he still tries to convince you that should be an even bigger red flag and you should very assertive in telling him that you do not want to see him. Say your parents would not approve. I'm sure they wouldn't. Say that YOU are uncomfortable and do not accept anything that opposes that.


There is this guy in my class and he has been in a fight with one of his friends and well he is usually very mean to me and insults me the whole time and one of my friends thought he might like me is that true? and at the end of the school he gave me a hug!!! that is kinda weird also he was being very weird around me those few days

Think about grade school. That's how the boys act when they like a girl. I don't know why they do it, but it happens a lot. My first love was 19 and I was 18. I actually couldn't stand him and avoided him every time I'd see him. Eventually, I accepted when he asked me to go to my senior prom. Something clicked like magic, and it was like I was in heaven! We would be together today, but unfortunately, he has passed on. I still think about him all the time, laughing at the insults and meanness, and smiling at all the wonderful times we had together.

hi guys anyone know a real estate website, for the west cost? ( a major one)\nThx in advance\ncya

As a CA Real Estate Broker, I like Realtor.com, Yahoo and MSN. If a property goes Pending, it comes off Realtors.com, thus its generally good data. Most of the real estate companies such as RE/MAX, Prudential all feed to Realtor.com.\n\nIn Realtor.com, you can choose by city, zip code and even MLS's numbers.\n\nIn addition most MLS systems always feed to Realtor.com

Looking for some type of business that is simple, inexpensive to launch and will turn a small profit.\n\nWilling to invest some money to start as long as there is a proven history.

Hi C,\n\nI´ve tried alot of different ways to make money online over the past "painful" 2 years and theres alot of crap out there that just doesn´t work, it´s amazing how they can keep getting awy with it! Now after soooo many disappointments I´m using Data Entry Pro and it´s now making me money (finally!) online. \n\nAnyway, basically you sign up with them and then once your logged in you just fill in as many forms as you like in their members section and you get paid for each one. I get checks from them every 2 weeks each averaging around $250-$350. You could make more but I just use the site as an extra income stream aswell as my full time job so I only work on it for around an hour each night. \n\nYou do have to be prepared to spend a little money though if you want to do anything online like this but it´s already been worth it for me.\n\nHere`s the link you can get them at anyway -> www.protry.com \n\nHope this helps!\nGoodluck,\nDave


I need an idea factory! Not one that creates ideas - we all already do lots of that - but one that churns out real product at the other end, or then at least sends it back to the drawing board if its not gonna happen. \n\nAlmost something like ideas.yahoo.com - where real people can participate in the development of ideas & the criteria for those ideas and the copyright/ownership remains with the originator.\n\nOr it must be for a happy world / free for all / public domain.\n\nIs there maybe already a site for that?

As Thomas Edison said, genius is 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration.  No good idea ever got off the drawing board without an inspired and energetic person behind it.


WHAT IS GRAVES DISEASE AND IS THERE ANY WAY TO FIGHT  THIS DISEASE .

My sister has Graves Disease. It is a disease where the immune system that causes hyperthyroidism. It can be fought by radiation treatment, a regimen of pills that are taken for the rest of your life unless another treatment is chosen, and then finally, removal of the thyroid and replacement hormones. There are alternative medicine treatments to the disease, but as with any alternative medicine, you should research to determine the usefulness of the treatments.

decides the time frame of a court reporter disposition?\nHow do court reporters get paid?

I expect it varies depending on the state, as well as the type of court in which a case is being heard (town  vs. state court, civil vs. criminal).  Court reporters typically are paid in two ways: one, for the official transcript following the completion of a trial, which will either be completed within a certain time by statute, or by order of the judge, and typically is paid by the party bringing the case; two, by one of the parties to the case paying extra to the court reporter for an expedited copy of a daily or intraday transcript.


what was the significance of it?\nwhat were the reaction from the french?\nwhat was the results from the ordinances?

A series of decrees or ordinances set forth by Charles X of France in July 1830 (and his chief minister Jules Armand du Polignac.)  They did such things as attempt greater controls on the press, deprive three-quarters of French voters of the right to vote, dissolve PArliament, and call for a new election (with the new electorate.)\n\nReaction:  the July Revolution.  Charles X was knocked off the throne (he abdicated and fled); the new system of governemnt was constitutional monarchy rather than the absolute monarchy in place before, and the new, limited, monarch was Louis-Philippe of the House of Orleans.

Relating to my earlier question, what phrase would you use to say goodbye... eg, Later, au voir?\nAgain lets get a sample & then put it to the vote.

You must have seen "C-Ya L8R." for cybernetic organisms.\n\nAcronyms are particularly popular electronic farewell devices, though senders run the risk of annoying the recipient with sign-offs that take more time to figure out than they would to spell out. Common and not-so-common TLA's (three-letter acronyms) include BFN (bye for now), TIA (thanks in advance or that is all, mimicking old public address systems) and FYB (follow your bliss, borrowed from the philosopher Joseph Campbell).\n\nLonger alternatives include TTFN, for ta-ta for now, TTYS (talk to you soon), PDAR (please destroy after reading) and C-Ya (for see you). L8R and Latah are commonly used for "later" (variations: E you later and Type at ya later). L2+ \n\nTo see Good bye in more than a 500 translations, please refer to the first link in the source.\n\nhttp://www.sptimes.com/News/81699/Technology/In_e_mail__there_are_.shtml


Her last boyfriend that she was going to marry has only been gone a year. He died three months before the wedding.

Well, life moves on, and people handle loss and tragedy differently.  What may be too soon for you may not be for her.\n\nAs far as telling her about how people feel about her new boyfriend, just sit down and tell her straight out, honestly as you can, but gently and in a civil fashion.  You also should avoid things like "Mom thinks this, and Dad said such-and-such, and Uncle Bob thinks this...".  If you blab things others have said to or around you that they thought was in confidence, there will be lots of anger and hurt feelings to go around.

I have been offline for a few days due to the holidays and find that I have sent several emails to someone while I was away from my computer. How can this happen?

If emails were actually sent from your computer, it could be that you have a virus trying to infect others by using your address book. More than likely, a virus or spam email sent by another person is using your address as a return address, which will result in you getting a failed email message even though you may have not originated the email.


No, i don't think so.\n\nHowever, I am sure that they read all questions (and answers) posted under "Yahoo Products" category. I read this in one of the answers given by the yahoo! Answers team. They normally reply when a question has not been answered at all or no correct answers have been provided. \n\nFor other categories, users themselves do the censoring work by using the "Report Abuse" facility.


I have my own belief on the matter, simply curious what you'll say.

I got raped when i was 13 and people tell me all the time that the person who raped me will get what they deserve but he is a person of high standered and everyone belives him so it is hard for me to belive that he will get his!!

I'm so sorry to hear that happened to you.\n\nYes, I believe that there will be a final judgment when Jesus Christ will judge all of us for our actions, thoughts, and hearts.  He will be able to assign the rewards accordingly.\n\nI encourage you to find the best ways you can to move on with your life so that this horrible act will have the least negative effects possible on you.  It's impossible to change the past, and you don't have any control on whether the person who harmed you decides to repent and be a better person, but you do have some control over whether you let go and move on and have a positive life.\n\nI wish you all the best in this.


can you get it the person you are having sex with doesn't have it.

If the person you are having sex with does not have a STD then you cannot be infected by them, even wihtout a condom.  The only problem is you can't know that, even if the person is a virign, or has recently been tested.  \n\nFor example a person could contract aids or herpes from a parent during childbirth and they could pass it to you.\n\nIf you wear a condom you reduce your risk of ALL STD's some to the point where it is almost impossible to contract them, But there are still some it is possible to get, such as genital herpes, genital warts and public lice (crabs).  \n\nIt is also possible that the condom could fail and that would increase your risk of all STD's, but you are still better off with a condom that breaks at some point then none at all.


Is there a reason they were counting sheep and not chickens.

When people are trying to sleep and cannot not it is usually due to having a lot on their minds. Counting sheep gets a person to focus on one thing (instead of multiple things)like meditation would. Or they fall asleep counting sheep because it is so boring.


could you tell me about his differences with new president "mahmood ahmadinejad"?

A great man, the defender of peace and talk between nations and cultures. Did multi dimensional works in Iran. First and most important the economic, second the foreign relations,and many other important things. The question is why did people vote Ahmadi Nejad to office after Khatami. The answer is that the people of Iran want to have money in their hands, it doesn't matter for them if the economy of the entire country doesn't improve. Ahmadi Nejad came over and gave the people all the money that Khatami had collected in the Government's treasury. The money that was reserved for the case of an emergency and the improvement of economical projects. People didn't know that because Iranian broadcasting only supports Ahmadinejad and people in his campaign and does anything to decrease the popularity of Khatami's campaign.

How do I make it special? How can I have a renewal ceremony without spending alot of money but it actually feel like the wedding that I didnt have? Please let me know. Thank you.

The simple answer to this if you want to do it inexpensively is to keep it small. Most of us only have a few people we are truly close to, and these are the people you should invite. \n\nAs far as the ceremony goes, do something at your house or some place special to you. Picnic areas at local parks/lakes are very cheap to reserve. For a small fee, you can have your minister come out and say a few words to "renew" your marriage. Writing your own renewal vows can be a very meaningful. Doing all this at dusk with candles about will create a nice ambience. \n\nTreat  your guests to an inexpensive picnic type buffet. Light a campfire,  turn on the stereo and dance the night away!\n\nGood Luck!\n\nCheck out http://www.announcements.com for invitations.


I have some new ideas in my mind, but I don't have enough money to start a business, and I have no clue how to get the money to start it?

There are several avenues to attract capital. In all cases, investors want to see a project plan or the actual idea in beta version. In your case (small scale business), friends & family are most likely the best option. These are the people that are familiar with your thoughts and ideas and will hopefully respect them enough to provide some starter capital. \n\nIf that fails, then you can look at approaching your local SBA center. They can help you with small federally backed loans from local banks. In addition, there may be some grants or special programs available to you. \n\nThe next step is angel investors or venture capitalists. Angel investors are usually individual and wealthy people that will fund an idea if they believe in it. Venture capitalists will only fund more mature ideas with management and some proof of concept.


we have been through alot together in 7 years...he said he needs to move on but we are still in love.

After 7 years if he wants to move on you better let him go.  Everyone goes through a lot of hurt, and the next guy you're with will have gone through a lot of hurt with someone else.  That's how you learn throughout your life.  Don't bang your head against the wall for someone who has said they need to move on.

If you were looking to start taking martial arts, what style (karate, aikido, etc.) would you study and why?

It all depends on what you're looking to gain from participating in a martial art. I prefer Aikido because I think it has the best moral philosophy behind it. The goal in training in Aikido is to be able to diffuse a conflict without bringing harm to yourself or your opponent. This takes an a great deal of skill and training but it is worth it. If you want an art that goes beyond the physical aspects of how to defend yourself and actually makes you a better person mentally, Aikido is the way to go.

I previously asked: "Can we remove a cached page on Yahoo? The site was deleted but is still cached on yahoo." \nBut, I should also add that it is not my site. It is a profile and comments that were on "Greatest Journal", the weblog/online journal site.  The profile and comments (even though deleted on the main site) are still coming up on yahoo's cached sites.  It will be tricky as I don't have the control to "redirect" by recreating the page and using a"301 redirect" or entering a "error 401 or 404" as it is an online journal through another party. Any suggestions?  Greatest journal told me to contact the search engines that have it cached. Yahoo doesn't have a delegated department for that sort of thing and I keep getting automated email responses to direct it to the "proper department",...there is no proper department for this listed on their selections.

Unlike Google, Yahoo doesn't want deal with the trouble of removing problematic sites from their index. But there is a way to make it clear to the Yahoo spider that it needs to be taken off.\n\nGreatestJournal, being a LiveJournal clone, should have a "remove from search" option.

Gene splicing works on plants. How will we compete with computers if we only improve computers and not ourselves?

Gene splicing doesn't work in the sense that they just stick the gene in the plant, grow it, and it is modified.\n\nThey have to grow many plants before they get one that expresses the gene, then do many tests to make sure the modification has not had any undesirable phenotypic effects.\n\nThe end result would be that in order to "improve" the human race, we'd have to submit thousands of children to chilling experiments in the lab. Most of them would not express the gene - what happens to them? Who is the authority that decides what are good genes and bad genes? While noting Godwin's Law, I'd like to point out that this guy called Hitler had a few ideas about improving the human race through artificial selection.\n\nWhy should we worry about computers? They have no wants, no desires. They're not suddenly going to go on strike because they want a TV card to watch while they're working. They aren't going to take our women. If we develop machines powerful enough to do a large swathe of the work, I'd view that as a good thing. Society will have to change to take account of this, hopefully for the better as we gain free time to spend with people, rather than slaving away doing some menial job.


Isn't the amount of time the earth takes to rotate the only fixed value?  Couldn't that be broken down diffrently?  Perhaps something more metric-system like.  Why was time  originally broken down the way it was?

The hour was originally defined in ancient civilisations (including those of Egypt, Sumeria, India and China) as either one twelfth of the time between sunrise and sunset or one twenty-fourth of a full day. In either case the division reflected the widespread use of a duodecimal numbering system (counting with each thumb the spaces between the joints of the other finger on the same hand, i.e. 3 x 4 = 12) and the equally widespread tendency to make analogies among sets of data (12 months, 12 zodiacal signs, 12 main compass points, 12 hours, a dozen).
