Well, I do. But I've taught the subject, or at least parts of it, at the college level. I also earn a living as a geologist. Your question doesn't explain what you are struggling with. I guess like any subject it helps a lot if you find it interesting. Sometimes this can be remedied by a good teacher who knows how to make the subject relevant to the students. I'm sorry if you don't have one of those. Maybe you should discuss it with the teacher. I would also suggest that you think about how the subject applies to your every day life. Then maybe you can start to see how it works and gain insight. \n\nPlease, if possible post some of your questions about the subject. Maybe Yahoo! Answers can help by giving you some different points of view.  Good luck.


Per year what puts out more carbon monoxide: Factories and Industry or Volcanos, and Nature.

I'd definitely have to say people.  I mean, think on it:  Cars, factories, smokers, and so many other variables that depend on the human race to produce it... whereas, volcanoes and nature itself are just simply producing it to balance out the atmosphere and to equalize the elements in it!  We far exceed the output of nature itself... it's sad, but we really GOTTA control it better otherwise Mother Nature WILL bite back someday......


I was going to buy Final Cut Pro, but I found out that is only for Mac. If you could give me the product name and a rough price that would be awesome.

Ulead Media Studio is a great package. It's quick and easy to learn and will let you do virtually anything with digital video. The next step up of course is Premiere Pro from Adobe. Ulead MS is cheapest though. There's a free trial available on their website if you're interested.


I HAVE A BUSINESS CHECKING ACCOUNT WITH PNC, ON MY STATEMENT I AM BEING CHARGED $35.00 CORPORATE ACH POS SETL AND $85.00 CORPORATE ACH EPSANFEE EPS ANNUAL FEE..CAN ANYONE EXPLAIN WHAT THESE CHARGES ARE..

Do you have a merchant account (accepting credit cards) with PNC?  Could be setup fees for such.\nEPS = Electronic Processing Service Inc. - a large credit card transaction processing firm.\nCORPORATE ACH POS SETL = Corporate Automated Clearing House Point of Sale Settlement - again sounds like a merchant services type thing.

It is not healthy to lose 15 lbs. in 2 weeks but in order to lose the most weight, you should go somewhere to get a colonic.  This will clean the sludge out of your system and you will thin out in the waist.  Drink lots of water, this will also help get rid of excess water that your body is retaining.  Eat your veggies and fruits and excercise for about 40 minutes or more every day.

Hi, try adjusting or turning off your firewall? This can cause dreamweaver to not actually connect and return said error. \n\nhope that helps..

Vague means unclear or not enough detail or information.


mental illness and/or mental problems. if there isnt one, then why are homeless people homeless?

Most homeless people are homeless because they refuse to work, therefore they have no money to maintain any type of home.  Just look at the ones that refuse to go to shelters if they are expected to even clean up after themselves or help out while stayng in them.\n\nAnd just a comment about the "right" to health care.  I work a full-time job that gives lousy medical benefits.  If I cannot afford the services of a doctor or a dentist (we have no dental plan) I do not get treated. I just have to suffer. I do not have the "right" to have the problem taken care of, so why should a person who refuses to work have that right?

We tested it over 8 years ago and it had some pesky little buggers in it so we can't drink it.  The pump went bad and we fixed it and added clorox to the well like your supposed to.  Do the organisms change over time?

Whether the organisms change over time depends on the origin of the microorganisms. If the contamination resulted from surface water intruding into the well, the conditions may have changed.\n\nSince you suspected the well water to cause allergic reactions, I'd advise you have it tested on microorganisms again. The chlorox was added to the water after the pump, or to the bottom?\n\nThe intervals of microbiological testing depend on the amount of water you draw and the use you put the water to. If it gets into contact with food or cutlery, I'd advise intervals of 3 to 5 years. If the chlorox treatment has rendered it drinkable, regular repeats are necessary, also in order to manage the dosage.

i gotta set of used golf clubs that my buddy gave to me he is pretty close to my height and i would like to get a new set, this set that i have is about 10 years old, i'm anew golfer and price is a concern.... whats the guidelines for buying new golf clubs?\n\nthanks\n\nNsbjim

Golf clubs are all about feel and swing speed.  Test-out different clubs....size, weight, texture, and find out what you like.  Then, have someone at the golf store estimate your swing speed....the faster your natural swing, the stiffer the shaft has to be.  Put the right shafts on the clubs that you feel comfortable with, and you have the perfect set for you.  It's not hard.  You just have to take the time to shop around.  Trust me.  It's worth it.  The right clubs make all the difference in the world.  \n\nYou can find really good deals on the internet (ebay), once you know what you want.  Don't buy from the store unless you have to.  Good luck....and welcome to the best game on earth!


maybe you can send me that file if you have on your computer ... please... Thanks

Sometimes when we are talking on msn or something. And lets just say i take like not even a minute to answer he thinks that i might be talking to another man or something? So then i say to him no i was only checking my messages .. then rite after i say that thats when a whole new problem begins. He starts to say ohh did a guy send u a message and bla blah. I try to calm him down and tell him what are u talking about. ANd then he thinks i am faking it. So i really dont know what to do because it happens quite often. He gets really angry fast and i knpw part of it is jellousy  but its too much . and gets me really upset. So  ten we start a big fight all for nothing all because i topke a litle time to answer his quesiton. i find it really childish but the problem is i really really love him soo much. But  just dont know  what to do? do u have a solution that i can try and do with him so the  next time it happens again i can try and control the whole thing. Because its becoming a routie!!!

listen sweetie...\n\ni don't want to upset you or anything, but i've had experience with this issue.  what you're talking about is not really fighting.  it's called jealous and controlling.\n\nyou and your boyfriend aren't really fighting.  he is getting very angry and accusing you of things that he has made up in his head.  you are trying to cool the situation down while trying to defend yourself, all while trying to make sure that he knows that you love him.\n\ni don't know how long you've been going out with him and i don't know how angry he gets.  but on the real, you should tell him straight out that he has to stop and you won't take it if he continues.  if he does continue, you should leave him.  i know it sounds harsh, but trust me, however bad it is now... it will get worse... and worse... and worse.

I want to make sure I claim all my expenses for my small business this tax year.  Not sure if the people reselling my software at a 28% discount is considered a expense or not.  \n\nExample - I sell a software for $180.00 and the reseller also sells this for $180.00 (but they get a discount of 28% - so I sell this to them for $129.60)\nSo would this be an expense of $50.40 for my business?\n\nThanks for the help!

No. You have a retail price of $180. and a wholesale price of $129.60.  Not a business expense.   Update of Feb.9:  You can claim as business expenses, all expenses in connection with the "wholesale aspects" of your business.


List the manufacturers, model, year, and top speed please. Good Luck!

every year, car manufacturers sort of "upgrade" their models, which means that every manufacturer is a candidate for that same spot.as of now the DODGE VIPER has the crown with a 450HP on stock alone with a 4.1sec launching time on 0-60mph. next in line is the FERRARI 355 F1 with a 375HP with a power-to-weight ratio of 0.126 and 0-60 mph launch time@4.6 secs.this were followed by the following:\n(not in order)\n* Shelby Series 1    320HP   (0-60 mph) 4.4 secs\n* Lotus Esprit V8    350HP   (0-60 mph) 4.4 secs\n* Chev Corvette      345HP   (0-60 mph) 4.8 secs\n* Porsche Carrera    300HP   (0-60 mph) 5.0 secs\n* Mitsu 3000GT       320HP   (0-60 mph) 5.8 secs


What I meen by no funny buisness is I do'nt sign up for any services that offer my free credit report-\n-"all they want is my credit card number"  When I say\nFREE,I mean.........FREEEEEEEEEE!!!!!

AnnualCreditReport.com was set up by the big three credit reporting agencies in the United States(Equifax, Experian and TransUnion), to furnish free annual credit reports, as required by federal law. Under the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act (FACT Act) consumers can request and obtain a free credit report once every 12 months from each of the three nationwide consumer credit reporting companies. AnnualCreditReport.com provides consumers with the secure means to do so. \n\nI suggest your credit report from only on of the reporting agencies, then 4 months later, check a different agency, then 4 months later, check the last one. So you'll be able to get a continues 4 month look at what might be appearing on your credit report.\n\nAnd remember, its absolutely free with no subscriptions or cost. You can pay extra for scores, but you don't have to. \n\nSource(s):\nhttp://www.annualcreditreport.com

One of your "Well-Known Ports" may be disabled. The port that controls e-mail is #25, SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol). What can cause this to be disabled is spyware, viruses, trojans, logic bombs, and other types of malicious software. Have you tried to do a cold boot and then attempt to acces your e-mail? Maybe just by restarting you could rectify the problem. I reccomend that you download the Yahoo! Anti-spyware toolbar, Microsoft malicious tool remover (if you are running Windows), and AVG Free Edition. Do a cold boot and then start over. However, I really need to know more about your problem to diagnose it. Just try that first.


How do I know if I have a raccoon or something else going into the trash can?  I have a can w/ a lid but the other day it was knocked over and a hole in one of the bags.  The can is by the house in the back.  I live in SE Wisconsin.  What can I do about this problem?\n\nSerious replys only please.

My grandfather had that problem.  My grandma fixed it by putting treats for the raccoons...like leftover chicken in one spot and the garbage in the other.  As long as you remember to put out the treats you should not have a problem.

I remember i read this article where a person setup a bunch of computers that could predict stocks would go up or down. The computer can also buy and sell stocks according to it's predictions to make a profit. Is this for real? Does anybody know where i can read more about this? In your opinion, is it a good idea for me to get involved in this?

Be careful! This could easily be a scam.  Remember that the Stock Market is a VERY WELL oiled machine.  It's not perfect, so some times there are places to find undervalued stocks and create a win.  But remember that there are people that do nothing more than look for paterns and build software packages to leverage those patterns for large funds.  That being the case, any advantages that can be found are quickly milked from the marketplace in a hurry.  Think of it this way, if there were significant advantages to using this software then the market would quickly migrate to that method of trading until the cost of such would outweigh the bennefit.  Price and demand follow each other in the stock market, so if something is a good deal and has potential, people will buy it, which will raise the price.

If you believe that the ruling party are all 'crazy' in Iran, then not allowing Iran a nuke makes sense. But, it doesn't really make sense that they are 'all' crazy. They may appear that way, but they are sharp and sane. They just believe differently than we do about how life should be lived. \n\nHow is Iran ever going to use a nuke other than to defend itself? This is no small weapon. Dropping one into Israel would obliterate hundreds of thousands of Paletinians too, and ruin the very land Palestinians are trying to gain.\n\nAnd, I can't even comprehend Iran passing a nuke to a terrorist. How stupid would that be? Now the terrorist could blackmail both the U.S. and their Iranina benefactors. Doesn't hold water.

No, Iran should NOT have a nuclear weapon. They are dangerous actually VERY dangerous and people in Iran are stupid.

How soon after getting a women's cell number at the bar can I text message her to let her know I enjoyed meeting her?

Probably before you call her but not 5 minutes after you meet and leave.  Give it until brunchtime the next morning...so around 10ish.  That way it says, "I had a good time last night," but doesn't show you were obsessed.  The message she gets at that time is, "I've been thinking about you, but I do have a routine and a life, so I did what I had to do and you were the first person I thought of contacting when I had some free time."  Plus, you can do the "Wanna have lunch?" phone call once she replies.  So go text!


Yup, I love it just like all of her previous albuns. I'm a Fiona man all the way and it's great that Extraordinary Machine is finally out. Long live Fiona, you just keep those great songs coming!


In Japan, they used O3 for breeding fishes. the effect is the fish grow faster

Ozone or the scientific annotation O3, is a gas not a chemical and is the strongest disinfectant commercially available for the treatment of water. Ozone is generated by exposing oxygen molecules, O2, through a high voltage electrical field. As the oxygen passes through this field some of the oxygen molecules are split, creating two O1 atoms. These unstable oxygen atoms then recombine with other O2 molecules to form O3. Ozone has a very short half-life and if not used will quickly revert back to its stable state of oxygen. Due to its life expectancy ozone cannot be stored; instead an ozone generator must constantly create the ozone gas. If there is excess or residual ozone that did not have a chance to react with a contaminant it too will revert back to oxygen, which is the only by-product of ozone.\n\nProbably putting O3 into the water saturates the water w/ oxygen (as ozone "degrades.")

"professional bum is an oxymoron" Calling some one a bum because he does'nt work, makes thing worse. There are far more people in the world then there are jobs. You cant expect everyone to have a job, because as soon as somebody gets hired, that job is unavailable for everybody else. Many people feel that not working is immoral, It was,thousands of years ago when everybody in a tribe had to do his share of the work, or they would'nt have enough food, but now a few percent of the population can produce enough food to feed everyone. Its not hard to make enough of something now, the challenge is to sell it. In America most of the real work is done by machines, women, and people who are not U.S. citizens, including people who make things for us overseas. We dont need people to do more work. Most american companies have too many employees, and can increase profits by laying off redundant workers. Yes, there are want ads,and there are jobs available, but they're not going to hire a bum when they can hire someone who gets his work done. If there was a job sharing program where you would share your job with an unemployed person, and you each worked every other day and you each got half of your salary. would you participate? Perhaps "professional bum" is a term that means an unemployed man who will never get a job and does'nt look for one. Bums believe that nobody wants them. They get this idea when they get fired from jobs, and they dont succeed in getting another job. To stop being a bum, a man must believe that he is'nt really a bum, and there is a job somewhere that is easy enough that he can do it, and someone who will want him as an employee. He must believe in himself, or nobody else will. He needs a family that does'nt perceive him as a bum, or acts like they dont.


I just got internet and bought a wirless router. It is a g router. I have a laptop that can work with both G and B and it works fine with my router. But I have a PC that has a wirless nic card in it and it works but sometimes it goes away and it will not pick up any wireless. When i restart it it will pick my router up and everything is fine. But it will lose signal again and it wont work tell i restart it again. The wireless card in the PC is a LINSYS and the router is a Beklin. Would that be what is wrong? Please Help...

How many things in your house are on 2.4ghz? Change the router setting to channel 6. Is the main computer (attached to the router) going into sleep mode? Mine does that and it kills the signal everytime. Your nic card came with software. Is it searching for the strongest signal? Do you live in a house or apt building?

what do people use to make them and what would i need to make them

AVI, MPEG, QuickTime and other digital video formats are created two ways, on the fly, and captured/encoded.\n\nIn order to understand either process, it helps to understand what digital video consists of.\n\nDigital video is stored as a series of key frames and "dif" frames. A key frame is basically a picture of everything you see in a frame of video. Now if you're recording me talking, most of the picture remains exactly the same from one frame to the next. The only difference or "dif" between one from and the next frame would be the pixels around my mouth, which have changed. Since the "dif" frames are much smaller (It takes less space to store my mouth than an entire picture of me) the video is smaller and plays faster.\n\nDigital video consists of a key frame, followed by a bunch of dif frames, then another key frame and more dif frames, lather, rinse, repeat.\n\nOkay, so how this applies to making a digital video file.\n\nWhen you buy a DVD, you basically get an optical disk with an MPEG-2 movie on it. Someone with a very fast computer with an even faster hard drive "Captures" the movie. What I mean by this is that they record the movie to their hard disk as quickly as possible. In order to do this, this "raw" video is stored uncompressed. Basically nothing but key frames. The only problem with raw video is that it’s huge. A movie can take up more than 60 gigabytes of space!\n\nSo it goes through a second process, called encoding. Encoding goes through the raw video, and converts it into key frames and dif frames. So it compares frame 1 to frame 2, and stores them as one full frame, and one dif frame. It then does this with frame 2 to 3, 3 to 4, etc.\n\nThe encoded video is now much smaller. The 60 gigabyte "raw" movie now takes up 5 to 6 gigabytes of space, since each dif frame is really small.\n\nAs technology gets better, having a two stage process is less necessary. For instance, your Tivo is fast enough to encode “on the fly”, and go directly from the TV signal to encoded video, without having to do a capture first. The same principal works with web cams. Television and web cams are of low enough quality; they can do all the processing quickly. However, capturing movies for a DVD requires much higher quality, so they will continue to be captured and encoded for some time to come.


Everyone gets ridiculed for their religion, why do you think that people do this?

Because we are all taught that our own views are absolutely correct.  So when another view is expressed the knee jerk reaction is to either question its valitity or downplay its logic.

With all due respect to bobo, guns fire just fine underwater - just make sure the entire barrel is flooded with water and that your bullets aren't hollowpoint so they don't expand in the barrel.\n\nDoing that will really screw up your gun, but the cartridge will fire unless it has water inside. Metallic cartridges make their own oxygen as they combust; they'd work just fine in outer space minus the loud noise.


I need help on finding websites for the American Revolution.

Any search engine will work (Google, Yahoo, etc).  You might want to narrow down the topic a bit (ex. battles in NJ, Deborah Sampson, or Fort Ticonderoga).  PBS did a television series called Liberty! which was very good, and there is also info on their website (www.pbs.org).


Just name it,and explain why do you think so.

Should be Narnia, but it won't. Hollywood can't help itself. It chooses a film that best advances its agenda. So you know what that means. Look at all the awards out there. They have become meaningless. Who cares what the International Press thinks? The best vote out there is the wallet of the movie-goer...\n\nNarnia =$265,615,568\nBrokeback = $34,299,295\n\n...and the winner is...


What happens to All the waste from portable potties? the ones they use at fairs, festivals and construction sites.

if you stick around them long enough, you'll eventually see a big ol' truck come by and remove the waste (usually with a huge hose/vaccum thing). from there, it'll get taken and added to a sewer system somewhere, or a waste treatment plant.


If a parent smokes in the car while a child  is in there is it child abuse?\n\nThe child is in there and can not leave and being forced to "second hand smoke" should there be laws to protect the children?

Definitely should be laws against this! No child should have to breathe in second hand smoke- it's cruel. Parents with any sense wouldn't smoke around their kids.

according to what the whole world can see, let's estimate his IQ

Judging from how you formed your question, I don't think his IQ is the one you should be primarily worried about. There were mass e-mails, that were turned into urban legend about Bush's IQ being the lowest ever, but that was pretty much debunked by snopes. I think when you consider his academic accomplishments, even having high grades than his opponent in the last election, when he was in college, you see that he isn't really a dim guy. Now, if by the whole world means what some guy who couldn't handle a semester at a University of Michigan satellite school in Flint spliced together for film, then you do get a totally different idea. It is totally understandable to come to the conclusion that he's a dope. With an objective eye, looking at what is known about the man as a whole, knowing that when he ran for the Texas House of Representatives, and knowing that he lost because they figured him for a brainiac who would look past the needs of the people he would serve, knowing that he scored a 1206 on his SAT, putting him at about a 129 IQ roughly, I'd say "How much IQ has George Bush got?" isn't what you want to say. You want to say that you want to belong to a group that persecutes without knowledge of facts. Your goal is to feel as though you're making a cogent statement against someone by asking such a half minded question. If you want to ask ant question, ask "Why do I buy into what I am told, and do not seek out the correct information on my own?"

have u ever looked at some one/treated some one diff. bc the were overweight/obese?

If I would have treated someone who weighs more differently then it would have definitely been nicer but never in a mean manner. Maybe this statement would in itself be a stereotype or generalization but I always find such people are very kind-hearted and have a keen sense of humor. The only thing I am always cautious about is when talking about dieting and weight, etc. infront of them so as not to hurt their feelings but other than that then treatment is normal and actually it never even occurred to me that other people would be prejudiced against someone because of their weight!

For Marcus Vick who was kicked off of the Virginia Tech Hokies, should he be drafted by a NFL team or be put in prison after waving a firearm in a McDonalds parking lot?  If he is going to be picked by a team, who would draft him?  Jim Mora of Atlanta or good old Mik Shannahan of Denver after his drafting of Clarret?

i think they should put him in prision. Because he is just a bad influence on or off the field.and is to dangerous of a player and he has not played alot of games because he was in jail to many times.

Interested in early to mid 1800's.  Specifically England.

Not 100% sure on this at the moment but it used to be up to 7 years, however following the Boxing Day Tsunami  in 2004 the Governement made some changes to the law allowing people to be declared dead after a year.\n\nThe GRO (General Registry Office) deals with the issuing of Death Certificates and has some details here:\nhttp://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/deaths/registeringadeath/coronerinvolved.asp\n\nNothing about the 1800's though.

I just purchased a house at the end of Dec 05 and wondered if it was worth going to H&R Block. Couldn't I get the same results by doing my own taxes online or have people actually been refunded more money because of them. Any info would be appreciated.

It's pretty costly depending on your income and refund amount.  I once sat through 2 hours of having them do my taxes and they hit me with a $300 bill.  The good thing is that you can opt out before they submit it, which is what I did.  I then went home and filed on tutbotax.com, I paid about $50 and got the same results as the H&R Block guy.  I suggest you try to do it on your own.  If it is too difficult, then take it to a professional.


People talk about computer or router Port number [whatever] being open or closed, or needing to be open or closed for certain things. So . . . whata port? And how do you open and close them?

A hardware port is an electrically wired outlet on a piece of equipment into which a plug or cable connects. These hardware ports have different physical shapes such as male, female, round, rectangular, square, oblong, etc. There is some standardization to physical properties and function. For instance, most home computers have a keyboard port (currently round or telephone type), into which the keyboard is connected. Hardware ports can almost always be divided into two groups: One that sends and receives one bit at a time via a single wire pair (Ground and +/-) is called serial port(s). A port that sends multiple bits at the same time over several sets of wires is called a parallel port(s).\n\nA software network port is an identified doorway (address) for communicating between a program and another communications system or program often passing through a hardware port. The network port is usually numbered and a standard network implementation like TCP, UDP or IP (see below) will attach a port number to data it sends. The receiving implementation will guard and listen at the attached port number (doorway) to figure out which program to send data to on its system. A port may send/receive data one direction at a time (simplex) or simultaneously in both directions (duplex). These software network ports may also connect internal programs on a single computer system\n\nFor Input or Output (I/O) operations nearly all processor families use similar assembly instructions for both memory access and hardware I/O (see memory-mapped I/O for details). However, Intel microprocessors have assembly instructions (IN and OUT) that are used specifically for hardware I/O. These instructions figure out which hardware device to communicate with using the concept of an I/O port or machine port. These ports are numbered based on which hardware device they refer to.

This is for my physics project and we have to try to decrease the egg's momentum by using certain materials. However we can't use packing peanuts, paper or plastic type grass, glass, metal, or gases lighter than air, and no adhesive type materials or food products.

I suppose, from your wording, that this is a variation on the egg drop test where the egg is put into a package first, and then dropped. I would guess that means a parachute is out of the question. \n\nThe list of exclusions seems a little illogical but one thing I don't see on the list is cotton, wool, yarn, or even plastic wool. A large enough quantity of cotton balls would absorb energy. \nWater? \nA partially filled balloon? \nYou could essentially replicate a 'foam' using attached balloons or plastic bags filled with air. \nHow about a net made of elastic fiber? The elasticity, weave of the net, and the angle of the net's parabolic form would all be variable factors.

I recently purchased a FX5500 video card and it's perfect for what I need at the moment.  Unfortunately I find the fan on the card to be quite loud and I am looking for a cheap way to replace it with something quieter.  I've looked at the Arctic Cooling product line but none officially support the FX5500.  Any suggestions?  The model I have is the EVGA 128-A8-N319-LX for the AGP slot with 128MB DDR.

I had a similar problem on another graphics card.  You won't find one that is "officially supported".   Best you can do is find one of the same dimensions.    Carefully measure yours LxWxH and compare to the ones you're looking at.  Other things to consider, but you might not have a lot of choice about it are fan RPMs and airflow.   When you take off the old one and look carefully at it, it should say on there somewhere.\n\nLastely is the phisical connection (screw holes, etc).  If the dimensions are the same, then you should be able to attach it somehow.   This last part was the one that gave me the most trouble, but I managed to find some srews that worked for me.


is cardiovascular exercises the best answer to burn fat

being a teacher what should i tell  to my students of age 8-9 that they should do daily to keep themselves healthy and what they shouldn't do to avoid illness? (general health and general illnesses)

Mostly to wash their hands often.\n\nThen there is the obvious, brush and floss and see a dentist regularly.\n\nGet some excercise.  Don't eat TOO much junk food. (a little is OK on occasion, I'm not a total party-pooper!)\n\nDon't share water bottles or other drinks.  That is the FASTEST way to get sick.

A Pentagon study showed that improved body armor could have saved as many as 300 American lives since the start of the war - if not more.\n\nFurther, we know that soldiers were sent into battle without proper armor for their vehicles, causing many to die from improvised roadside bombs.\n\nIraq was not an imminent threat, and we COULD have waited long enough to get the armor and supplies for them before attacking Iraq.   Whose fault is it that we didn't, and those men were sent into war without the proper armor?

Possibly, because of the cost. For one soldier, the new body armor only cost more several hundred dollars. But USA have more than thousands soldiers, it will create problem in USA national budget if they equipped all of their soldiers with the new body armor in relatively short time. The same with their humvee. (most soldiers killed when they are riding humvee. I think their Abrams are strong enough to withstand carbombs. Though we can do nothing with choppers, they will never be armored enough to withstand explosive rounds).\nUSA didn't wait long enough to attack Iraq, may be because they are pissed with *ahem* terrorism and Saddam. The best defense is offense, right?\n\nBtw, from the lastest news, I heard that USA already sent new armor pieces to be added to their old body armor. It protects parts that unprotected previously and hope that it will add soldiers survivability rates.

At the age of 52,what are the other options available for me to do online.5 years of experience in courts.particularly family related matters.

Get a Web Page and a Domain name; they are inexpensive. Describe yourself in a bio with your areas of spoecialty. Pick a Speciality area/matters that you truly specialize in, in the state you have your JD.  Get an on-line payment form established with Visa, MC or Paypal.  "family-related matters" is too general-divorce? probate?  Look up areas where there seem to be a lot of folks listed, and there is the money/demand.  I used an online directory recently to obtain legal advice (at least I assumed it was!) for $50.00 for 15 minutes on a specific matter; unlawful detainer.\n\nGet listed on the Search engines-a good domain register company can do that for you for a small fee.\n\nYou can also try to get listed in existing online attorney referral agencies to the same end.\n\nGet affiliate partners in law that are currently on the net.\n\nNow, for all this marketing advice, what area do specialize in that maybe I could get a few minutes of advice about?

What causes tornadoes?\n\nThunderstorms develop in warm, moist air in advance of eastward-moving cold fronts. These thunderstorms often produce large hail, strong winds, and tornadoes. Tornadoes in the winter and early spring are often associated with strong, frontal systems that form in the Central States and move east. Occasionally, large outbreaks of tornadoes occur with this type of weather pattern. Several states may be affected by numerous severe thunderstorms and tornadoes.\n \nDuring the spring in the Central Plains, thunderstorms frequently develop along a "dryline," which separates very warm, moist air to the east from hot, dry air to the west. Tornado-producing thunderstorms may form as the dryline moves east during the afternoon hours. \nAlong the front range of the Rocky Mountains, in the Texas panhandle, and in the southern High Plains, thunderstorms frequently form as air near the ground flows "upslope" toward higher terrain. If other favorable conditions exist, these thunderstorms can produce tornadoes.\n\nTornadoes occasionally accompany tropical storms and hurricanes that move over land. Tornadoes are most common to the right and ahead of the path of the storm center as it comes onshore.


and then they have lost their Dutch nationality are they then considered in "no man's land" without a nationality?  Is that possible?

Why would they have lost their Dutch nationality? They might be able to petition the State Department to become a US citizen again, but it's unlikely. The problem happens somewhat frequently, so there is a UN Convention Regarding Stateless Persons, which is meant to lower the numbers of stateless people and assure stateless people are afforded basic rights.

Why do other religions poke fun of Mary the mother of Jesus..\n\nThere was a small country in what is now southern Nepal that was ruled by a clan called the Shakyas.  The head of this clan, and the king of this country, was named Shuddodana Gautama, and his wife was the beautiful Mahamaya.  Mahamaya was expecting her first born.  She had had a strange dream in which a baby elephant had blessed her with his trunk, which was understood to be a very auspicious sign to say the least. \nAs was the custom of the day, when the time came near for Queen Mahamaya to have her child, she traveled to her father's kingdom for the birth.  \nThey say the  birth was nearly painless, even though the child had to be delivered from her side.  \nIt is said that the child was born fully awake.  He could speak, and told his mother he had come to free all mankind from suffering.  He could stand, and he walked a short distance in each of the four directions.

Lord Buddha has pointed out that "root cause of quarrels and disputes is this distinction between oneself and others, considering them to be equal, or superior or inferior to oneself."\n\nThere is this truly awkward position, pointed out by Lord Buddha in the case of a person who has come to abuse those who do not abuse, who has come to revile those who do not revile, who has come to scold those who do not scold. All these abuses will naturally return to the owner who has proffered them, just as food offered but not accepted will come back to the owner.\n\nLord Buddha's attitude toward quarrels and disputes is very clear. He has no quarrel with the world. His preaching of the Dhamma has the only purpose to show the way to put an end to suffering. He never claims that his Dhamma is the only truth, everything else is false. He just makes it clear to every one to come, to see and to judge by oneself".\n\nThe best way to avoid quarrels and disputes, Lord Buddha advises, is not to uphold any fancy perceptions or false views likely to arouse disputes. Even in case that these fancy perceptions or wrong views do arise, the best way to deal with them is not to take delight in them, not to welcome them, not to take hold of them. Such an attitude will put an end to quarrels, disputes, wars and all demeritorious dhammaa (actions).\n\nIf some one have intolerant to Christians, then he is not a true Budhhist.\n\nBut wht are you doing? Is it right..... Just to remind you please read the following too.\n\n"You have heard that it was said, 'Eye for eye, and tooth for tooth.' But I tell you, Do not resist an evil person. If someone strikes you on the right cheek, turn to him the other also. And if someone wants to sue you and take your tunic, let him have your cloak as well. If someone forces you to go one mile, go with him two miles. Give to the one who asks you, and do not turn away from the one who wants to borrow from you. You have heard that it was said, 'Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.' But I tell you: Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, that you may be sons of your Father in heaven. (NIV, Matthew 5:38-45)

In the past month I've heard people say "as it were" at the end of a sentence far too many times.  I've heard it for years, but lately it really grates on me.  The speaker is usually on PBS or someone considered an expert in his/her field (at least by him or herself).  I think I heard CNN journalist Christiane Amanpour use it on the news recently, for example.  Not people that you would expect to have poor grammar.  I also have a friend who sprinkles big words into conversations, I'm assuming, in order to sound more intelligent. (Personally, I think she'd sound more intelligent if she used the correct words in the proper context.) And she often ends sentences with "as it were."  Sometimes followed up by a snooty laugh, as if she'd just completed the Sunday New York Times crossword puzzle. As far as I'm concerned, it either "was" or it "wasn't."

"- as it were : as if it were so : in a manner of speaking <her triumph, as it were, did not last long>"

This issue seems to be a huge debate among a number of people, especially since the teams of the NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL are considered "franchises."\n\nIf the taxpayers are building a stadium for a "private company", why don't we build private buildings for all businesses?\n\nI've heard a lot of debate, especially with talk of The Florida Marlins (MLB), The San Diego Chargers (NFL) and NY Jets (NFL) wanting new stadiums. Just curious to hear your thoughts on whether these should be privately funded (by the teams and partners); publicly funded (taxpayers); or jointly funded (combination of the two).\n\nYes or no answers aren't going to cut it. Please be thorough in your responses. Thank you!

Not all private companies/franchises effect the community tax base the way a stadium can. The more revenue a stadium collects, the more tax dollars are collected. The more businesses that pop up AROUND the stadium, the more tax dollars are collected. \n\nI believe they should be jointly funded. While ABC Co. may offer a few jobs downtown that people can apply for, new stadiums tend to draw in other businesses as well as create new jobs. Because of "incentives" like property tax breaks or personal property tax breaks for XXX amount of years, it is unfair to give the stadiums or teams a free ride. Because any town would want to increase their potential revenue futures, they need to be willing to give a little to get a lot back. :-) \n\nI'm always curious about who is responsible for the bill once a stadium is torn down... they never seem to tear them down and put them up in the same place again...


Like ya Know Not some All age Club Or flaky Web site With pre Teen Confused Straight Girls.. Like A place with girls ages 17-25 But Theres Not an age limit.. Or local hangouts/events Known for Attracting a Young lesbian audience..

Well one good place is the NET. and the other place is the Mall... Another good place to go is bars but I dont think that most girls that are lesbian would go out to party unless they are of the partying type.\n\nMost lesbians would rather stay at home at watch a movie...


They could get a young actor to play "Apollo" and film some stuff then, they could get Carl Weathers to fill in the rest!!

Yeah, like do a "Behind the Music" type of thing. It would be cool.


i have a research project for a class in school and i need to find some kind of song that talks about the issue of stem-cell research or cloning in any way.

He just doesn't seem to be aware that he's doing it.

If he is wasting your time cleaning up after him, try wasting his time. Take away privileges, and this should wake him up. He should know better than to do this when it is not his house but yours. Tough parenting, is just that. You only have 3 more years to make him a responsible adult. If you are tough now it will pay off. He may hate you now, but will love you for it later. \nGive him his living space for trashing as long as he doesn't do it to the rest of the house and just make him shut the door. When his room starts to stink, so will his cloths and his friends will let him know. Then maybe he will wake up and respect you and your house.


Kind of. You can get kidney stones in some areas depending on the quality of the water.


I use Microsoft Anti spyware and it works great. every time i start up my computer is asks me if i want to allow or block UCmore. i always click block but every time i start up my computer and log on it asks me if i want to allow or block it. how to i get rid of it for good? \nIM me at alex_42092 (yahoo) if that would be easier for you!\nThank you!

UCmore is an Internet Explorer toolbar. When shown, it displays links to other sites it deems connected to the current page. PestPatrol detects versions 3.x and earlier, because of their stealth installation methods and because these versions tracked users with a unique ID. Version 4.x does not do this, is not considered a pest, and is not detected by PestPatrol.

I know there is reco'd % of income, but just because someone could afford to buy a 500,000 house, should they?  What is the smartest move, considering retirement, housing as an investment, taxes, sending kids to college....

I would focus on your comfortable monthly payment, and stick with that.  You may be approved for a much higher purchase, but remember, lenders are not your fiduciary; many people get in over their heads, and sure enough a lender was willing to take them there.  A top quality real estate agent will be able to guide you.\n\nAfter you determine your comfortable monthly payment, you might consider purchasing rental or investment property with your leftover financial capability.  A great book to read is The Millionaire Real Estate Investor, by Gary Keller and Dave Jenks.  This is smart as you focus on retirement and college expenses.  Good Luck!


What would be the categories to search for companies that make/edit TV commercials in Yahoo or Google? Like News casters for Journalism....

Do a search for Advertising Agencies. A qualified agency will not only have print & web samples, but radio & TV spots they have created on their web site. They will come up with the idea, shop costs, purchase media and work on creation, production & execution of the ad.

Dick Cheney and Karl Rove were draft dodgers during the Vietnam war. W joined the National Guard, then deserted before completing his enlistment. Rush Limbaugh and O'Reilly were also draft dodgers. Murtha, Kerry, and McCain were decorated war heroes. McCain was a POW and the first victim of Rove's swift boat tactics. Whenever one of these heroes says something that questions the mistakes of these chickenhawk cowards they are attacked and called cowards. Who would want to serve in a war run by cowards who attack past war veterans? Who can have pride in a purple heart after it was so shamefully mocked at the Republican convention?

A student drives the 100. mi trip back to campus after spring break and travels with an average speed of 56 mi/h for 1 hour and 30 minutes.\n(a) What distance was traveled during this time?\n mi\n(b) Traffic gets heavier, and the last part of the trip takes another half-hour. What was the average speed during this leg of the trip?\n mi/h\n(c) Find the average speed for the total trip.\n mi/h

A: 56 mph x 1.5 hours = 84 miles\n\n\nB: Distance = 100 total miles - 84 miles = 16 miles.\nTime = 30 minutes = 0.5 hours.\n\nAverage speed = 16 miles / 0.5 hours = 32 miles per hour.\n\n\nC: Total trip miles = 100 miles\nTotal time = 2 hours (1 hour 30 minutes for first leg, 30 minutes for final leg)\n\nAverage speed = 100 miles / 2 hours = 50 miles per hour.

Whenever my husband and I make love, it hurts me in a certain spot.  If we can avoid that spot, I'm okay.  But whenever that spot is touched it feels like I'm losing my virginity all over again.  While having my yearly, the doctor touched it and that hurt like crazy.  I've been to see numerous doctors, but they haven't found anything yet.  I still have many more appointments but any thoughts are welcome.  Maybe someone can stear the doctors and I in the right direction.

It may be that you have a nerve that is just sensitive in that location. Is it inside your vagina or outside? Have you ever grabbed a mirror and checked it out?\n\nIs it related to your cycle at all?


debbie Mathers is Eminem/Marshalls Mother. If she died when did she die and how?

She's alive. She didn't remarry him, his ex-wife Kim did.


Why is it that my shots or blood pressure reading are always done on my left arm, and never my right?  Even the blood testing station at my hospital was designed specifically for my left arm.  I understand that most people in the world are right-handed, but what happens if you're left-handed?  Can I request to get my shots done in the other arm?

You can have a shot and your blood taken in either arm - it makes no difference. Blood pressure is done in the left arm because it is closest to the heart so your pressure is higher in that arm, but if you have a preference, ask to have it done on the right arm it doesn't matter that much.


Im so excited to go,even tho im only a freshman in high school right nows, but im really looking forward to go.

Largely depends on if you're at a community college or a dorm in a university. Universities are often all about debauchery save for a select few, but community college is pretty nice. Community college is basically high school for 3 hours a day without stupid BS drama. Doesn't matter how you look, your age, sex, style, nothing. People go there to learn, not to be cool. No time for drama, heh.\n\nLong story short, it's nice. If you're in college, you can pretty much assume you're there to do something with your life.


im not really living my life cuz im depressed.. i dunno wat to do...there's not one day i dnt think bout ending my life. at d same time i still have my dreams and aspirations. im unable to talk to my friends bout this. is there anyone who's gone through this and can help me get out. im unable to concentrate and do my work properly, n my superiors are not happy wid my perfromance. its a vicious cycle.. i feel dejected...sometimes i think im crazy..i jus wanna be normal..

Think about all the people that love and care about you - do you think they would want to see you go?  Absolutly not!  I am writting this becasuse I care too, I don't know you, but I can't help but have concerns about your well being!  Think about all the other people in this world who have is worse than you, there are millions that have is worse.  You should talk to a counselor or a pastor or even someone that is close to you.  People do care about you, even those friends that you say you can't talk to, I promise.  You have said that you have dreams and aspirations - instead of just sitting on them - do them!  You have a life to live, so live it.  You don't get to decide on when you leave this life, God does, so put your life back in his hands and live the rest of your life that He gave you.  My prayers are with you.

can a secure wireless connection be made with widows xp.  Tell me what I should do\n\nThanx

Just get a Linksys or Netgear wireless G router. Connect the WAN port of the router to the cable modem. Connect both notebooks to the router. \n\nI recommended a G router, but only if you laptops have G wireless cards in them. If not, then get the correct router for your cards (if not G then B).\n\nAs far as security goes, use the WAP or whatever security it has. Be sure to change the default passwords. They are not bulletproof, but unless your neighbors are international super spys, the security in the wireless routers should suffice if you actually use it.

they lie about the economy , they lied about Iraq, they lied about jobs, poverty and so on & so on

Governments have always lied to the people.  In the worst cases, it's malicious -- a bid for power, money, whatever -- but in the case of the U.S. I sincerely believe that many of the lies have a more mundane purpose: communication.  Korlach Kyle is right -- you keep the people ignorant and they won't rise up.  The thing is, that the lies are not the cause of the ignorance but the effect.  Few of us have the time to deeply understand the issues.  I don't.  So the power brokers, whose job it is to understand the issues, simplify for us.  In the act of simplification, history is written and something between half-truths and lies are told.  We're fortunate in this country that the truth is largely discoverable if we're willing to search for it and demand it.  This last fact is relative.  Freedom of information changes.  Recently, we've elected to sacrifice some of our freedom, and some of our information, for security, but balancing this is the huge increase in the disemmination of info via the internet.  Dissemination, of course, is not the same as availability.  It would be a shame if we agreed to continue in this direction -- curtailing more freedoms for security -- out of fear.  We are a fearful people -- afraid of germs, afraid of fanatics, afraid of arguments, afraid of thinking too hard -- but we're also a fiercely proud people.  Already our representatives on both sides of the aisle are beginning to insist on our freedoms back as the ant farm gets its peace back.


i wonder why if only 144,000 people are going to heaven, then a group would try to get others to join there church, wouldnt fewer members mean your odds are better? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jehovah's_Witnesses\nthis is one of many refrences i used to get my number

Any personal eventuality or preference is far less important than that command.\n\n(Matthew 28:19,20) Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you

You've been to Pluto? \nWhat's it like?\n\nThis is a nonproven theory:\nBecause when the Sun was forming, and condensing to it's present size, it spun faster and faster as it grew smaller. The first things to be spun off were rings of light gases that formed the outer gas planets. As it got hotter and smaller and faster, rings of heavier materials were flung off, creating the inner rocky and metallic planets. Pluto is technically a captured comet or other stray chunk, and probably came from further out in the system, perhaps a remnant of stars which previously exploded. We won't know until we get there.

For example, if I want to look up a keyword and see where my site ranks, is there an easy way to see on what page my web site shows up? I hate to scroll through 40 pages trying to find my site.

First, cheat and look for your site by name to ensure it's even "in" the index.  Then, there are programs out there that you can buy that'll "scroll through" those 40+ pages for you and let you know where you're at.  Submission Wizard is one such program, but I know there's many more.


alright, honestly... i'm not doing this to be funny or gross, although i know it is a little bit of both. for the past week or so, every time i go #2 it's green. why oh why is my poop green?!

This is actually a fair question.  First, 'poop' is brown because it is a mixture of green and rusty red.  The red comes from retired blood cells that are being excreted.  The greenish yellow is from bile, a substance present in your digestive system.  When there is significantly more bile than retired blood, the poo is more green (this is my many babies have green poo, their bodies aren't old enough to have retired enought red blood cells).  Bile 'overload' is somewhat rare, but is not a health issue.  If you experience abdominal cramping, dark/black stool or stool that is very thin (perhaps no thicker than a pencil) these can signs of very serious medical problems.  But for now, you're probably fine. Regards :)

Humans have been making music since the beginning of our existence. Every culture and every religion has some kind of connection with music. How powerful is music and could it change the way the society percieves other cultures in a more positive understanding manner?\nCould it bring peace among our race?

Music is an expression of self. It is very powerful. It can affect mood, trigger memories...\nI think We attach to songs for two reasons. 1) The song conveys a message that reflects who we are and what we believe in. or\n2) It just has a snappy beat and we like the sound of it.\n\nCould music change the way the society perceives other cultures.  I'm guessing no. Primarily because there would typically be a language barrier and most people would not take the time to find out what the lyrics mean. But I believe if they did take that time, it would have some sort of positive impact. For example. Con Te Partiro sung by Anthony Bocelli is a very powerful love song when you look up the lyrics and then listen to it.\nAnyway, could music bring peace between cultures. I'm still thinking no on that. Interesting question.


Are the pink and blue colors for a boy or girl based on any theory or historical reason?

It was a long time ago and it is based around superstition.  Blue is often thought to repel evil.  Blue looks like the sky and as you can't steal the sky it would confuse Lilith and her demons.  Boy babies, thought to be more important than girls, were wrapped in  blue to keep Lilith and other demons from stealing them or harming them.  I will keep looking for the book in which I read this.

I have heard that a company can only attempt to collect on an unpaid debt for a period of 6 years. It can then be removed from your credit report, as an unsatisfied debt. I would like to know if there is any truth to this.

The statute of limitations on debt is 7 years.  After 7 years it falls of your credit report.  This does not remove your responsibility of paying the debt.  Do the moral thing and pay the debt you owe.  Also remember that it's 7 years from the date of last activity, meaning that the 7 years starts when you made your last payment, *not* when you opened the card.

I alwayz thought that they were too skinny and fake, but I guess since I'm a girl I guess my opinion didn't count cuz ppl would just think I'm jealous. I'd never want to be that skinny, I'm very happy the way I am, and there's nothin plastic about me :) and is it just me, or does it look more like they're stomping than walking....it's just ridiculous...you don't see people walking down the street like that lol.

I can go all day with eating a healthy amount but then night comes and I eat so much more than I would like to, do you have any suggestions?

There are at least two problems that involve disordered eating primarily at night: night eating syndrome, which is discusssed here, and nocturnal sleep-related eating disorder, which is described on another page on our site. We suggest you read the material on both so you will have a better understanding of these perplexing and distressing problems.\n\n   \n\nSigns and symptoms\nThe person has little or no appetite for breakfast. Delays first meal for several hours after waking up. Is not hungry or is upset about how much was eaten the night before. \n \nEats more food after dinner than during that meal. \n \nEats more than half of daily food intake during and after dinner but before breakfast. May wake up and leave the bed to snack at night. May not be aware at the time of what they are doing. \n \nThis pattern has persisted for at least two months. \n \nPerson feels tense, anxious, upset, or guilty while eating. \n \nNES is thought to be stress related and is often accompanied by depression. Especially at night the person may be moody, tense, anxious, nervous, agitated, etc. \n \nHas trouble falling asleep or staying asleep. Wakes frequently and then often eats. \n \nFoods ingested are often carbohydrates: sugary and starchy. \n \nBehavior is not like binge eating which is done in relatively short episodes. Night-eating syndrome involves continual eating throughout evening hours. \n \n This eating produces guilt and shame, not enjoyment. \n \n   \n\nHow many people have night-eating syndrome?\nPerhaps only one to two percent (1-2%) of adults in the general population have this problem, but research at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine suggests that about six percent of people who seek treatment for obesity have NES. Another study suggests that more than a quarter (27%) of people who are overweight by at least 100 pounds have the problem.


Give me one, only one evidence for evolution which esatblishes beyond doubt that it is unreasonable/unscientific to propose that there is a designer behind the intricate designs we see in the living world around us.

heres the deal.\nevolution only shows what MIGHT have happened if everything DID happen by RANDOM CHANCE. the chance of one protien molicual forming by random chance is 1/10^65.\nthats a small number.\nand thats only 1 simple molicule- not to metion the hundreds of other more complex ones.\nwould you believe me if I told you I saw a tornado go through a junk yard and randomly put to gether a shiny red caddy?every little detail from the headlights to the liscens plate?perfectly? probably not.\nbut thats what evolution is-- something happened randomly and put together this perfectly running,accuatly designed planet so that if 1 thing were to be off by more then 5 degrees life would end?\n\nand another thing--evolution doesnt show how the universe started.AND there is no proof that the universe is expanding(supporting the big bang theory).there is no way to show the stars and galexies are moving away from each other, is there?\nevolution just doesnt make logical sence because according to it, the universe has just been exploding and contracting for all of time and it did not have a beginning or end, which everything has to have.\nif we looked at how the Bible tells us, it would make a lil more sence.it says God created everything (intellegent design) INCLUDING TIME.He created all the dimentions and banned us to them to see if we would trust Him or not.\nand the Bible says clearly "in the beginning God created the heavens and the earth" it doesnt say He might have, or there is some proof that, or there is a possibility He could hev, it says He DID.and if you dont belive the Bible, think about this--it say that Gods word (the Bible) will last forever... and so far it is the oldest most sold book of history, not to mention the most prooven.\nspeaking of proof, ever wondered why there seems to be no proof of God? chck this out.\nMatthew 16:4 (New International Version)\nNew International Version (NIV)\nCopyright © 1973, 1978, 1984 by International Bible Society\n\n    \n4A wicked and adulterous generation looks for a miraculous sign, but none will be given it except the sign of Jonah." Jesus then left them and went away.\n\nproof enough?\n\nand one more thing-- if you call someone names to try to make them and their ideas look less then you, it obviously means that you are trying to cover up something... such as your stubborness to your disprooves hypothosis' that YOU want to believe.\n\nAnd when you die and God says,"I dont know you" just remember i tried to warned you.\n\n\nfoot note to dvdi14-- thats not evolution.same thign with the so called moth evolution--there was smog in englend which darkend the trees so the whit moths showed up better an got eaten more and the brown moths were camoflaged.


I am due in April of 06 and i was wondering if i can claim the baby on my taxes.

Once the child is born, you can claim that child on that year (and every year after until 18 (longer if student)or when child dies, whichever comes first.\nYour child doesn't have to live more than a few minutes after birth, to claim the entire year. But only that year.  The child must be born and living to claim.
