Light travels at 186,000 miles per second. The Sun is so far away from us that it takes the light leaving its surface 8 minutes to reach Earth. If the Sun suddenly blew up, would we know about it right away? Why?

No. We would know about it in Eight Minutes. If you think about it, the only way we even know that the Sun is there is by the heat and light that the Sun emits. If it blew up, we would feel the heat of the explosion (heat is slower than light), pieces would fly at us (in a nova ALMOST the speed of light, but not quite), and there would be a burst of light and then darkness (at the speed of light-8 min.) The pieces flying towards us would be getting closer at nearly the speed of light, and they would be emitting light, but light cannot travel faster than light, so it would still take eight minues. Even if we had a thermometer or camera right next to the Sun, radioing back information constantly, those radio waves only travel at the speed of light. Eight minutes.


with all he has done in the last two years dont you think someone should have noticed|||?

I'm surprised he wasn't picked to replace Brady.  But when you look at just pure numbers, Manning, Palmer and Brady all put up more than him.  Fans saw the TD's and voted for them instead of Ben who probably deserved it more.


i really wanna know.  is it some kind of undiscovered energy, "life energy"

I wouldn't think that they are aware as we understand our awareness of existance.\n\nHowever, plants do know when something is harming them.  It has been proven that they produce a chemical that is realeased through the air when something damages them.  It is thought that this is a way of letting other plants in the area of possible, impending danger.\n\nIs this usefull?  Maybe not to us, but it works for plants.

I was just curious. I know that Sunday is named after the Sun. Monday=Moon, Tuesday=Mars, Wed.=Mercury, Thur.=Jupiter, Friday=Venus, & Sat.=Saturn...But why exactly?. Was it believed that those days revolved around each of those planets at that time? or what?\n\nThanks.

A long time ago in human history, people thought that Earth was flat, and at the universe's center. They believed that seven members of the solar system forever circled around us—see graphic to the right, or view one from Censorinus - Sur le jour natal. \n\n     Some Mediterranian peoples also believed that each hour of the day was ruled by either the Sun, Moon or one of five then-known planets, all of which were thought of as gods. The sequence in which they thought hours were governed was the inverse order of distance they believed those solar system objects to be from Earth. \n\nDuring this time, Egyptians thought that the most distant was Saturn, shown at the bottom of the graphic above. They thought that the order of closer members (shown counterclockwise following Saturn) was Jupiter, Mars, Sun, Venus, Mercury and closest, the Moon. So they believed that the first hour was ruled by Saturn, the second by Jupiter and so on. \n     Egyptians also believed that after each seven hours the order in which these objects ruled was repeated, so it started again with Saturn. \n     According to those ancient Egyptians, the planet that ruled the first hour also governed the entire twenty-four hour period, and gave its name to that day.    The first (and also the 8th, 15th and 22nd) hours of the first day were sacred to Saturn, the 23rd to Jupiter, the 24th to Mars and the first hour of the next day to the Sun. Therefore, they believed that the first day was ruled by and named after Saturn (Saturday) and the second was ruled by (and named after) the Sun (Sunday). \n\nEgyptians once divided all twelve 30-day months (of their 360-day calendar year) into three 10-day weeks in the same manner as Greeks of the same period.    The epoch at which planet worship caused them to change its length to seven days is not known, but it must have been over twenty-five hundred years ago because Herodotus, writing in his History during the 5th century B.C. said: "Here are some other discoveries of the Egyptians. They find...each day belongs to a god..." \n     Adherents of the cult of Sin at Harran, who were known as Harranians or Sabeans by Arabic and Syrian authors, named their days after the same solar system members  as Egyptians and Persians. Like Hebrews and many other peoples, they considered the one named after Saturn to be the seventh day, so they began their week with a day named after the Sun. All seven days were named after solar system members in the same order as they were in Egypt. \n\nIt is interesting to note that these exact same solar system objects, and in the same sequence, were also used to name days in ancient India, Tibet and Burma.   This is also true of names for Japanese days of the week, but the custom there has been traced back only a thousand years.  \n     Roman soldiers stationed in Egypt became accustomed to the pagan seven-day week and began to introduce it into their own homeland to replace their eight-day marketing week. Octavian (Caesar Augustus) and succeeding Roman rulers permitted this practice but it wasn't made official until the emperor Constantine took that step in A.D. 321. \n     English names for days of the week are derived from Anglo-Saxon names for those same seven heavenly bodies that were revered by ancient peoples. Compare those English and Anglo-Saxon day names in the table below. Other similarities between day and "planet" names in various countries can be observed there.


we met on line and he had apic on the site and i didn't have any made. well, we talked for a week and made plans to meet and he was excited and so was i until i sent my picture and never heard from him again. i want revenge! How?

just let it go, forget about his shallow behind. It aint worth the time and effort though I know it`s aggravating for you.


Forget depends on. . . what is it to you?\n-In the 1800's it was romantic to dance (ball dancing), and holding hands was super risky. \n-In the 1950's drive in's and giving a girl a jacket was romantic.\n \nI'd especially luv to hear what guys do for romance.

I only saw it once.  It was the one where Homer somehow has a leftover party hero (sub, sandwich, grinder, whatever you want to call it).  Over the course of a week, he is eating the thing.  Over time, it starts looking old and nasty.  Marge throws it in the trash.  Homer rescues it.  He sleeps with it and caresses it.  He eats some more and gets sick.  What is the name of this episode?

"Selma's Choice," from the fourth season, aired early 1993: Because Homer is sick from the sandwich and can't drive, the kids are taken to the "Duff Gardens" brewery-owned amusement park by their Aunt Selma.


When looking at all US businesses, what is the mixture of sales between new customers and existing customers?  Any gov't stats that have this info?

The answer will vary by industry and/or product line.  In most industries it is assumed that sales to existing customers come much easier and with much less expense than to new customers.  But in some industries where repeat business is rare, this consideration doesn't even occur.\n\nAnalyzing this would be next to impossible to accomplish at a national or even regional level.  Rather it would be more likely an industry association will survey a small segment of its membership and then apply the results to the entire industry.  Which industries would even do this?  I don't know.

Almost 26 years ago I stood behind Bill Murray and didn't even know it was Him until he left.

I work in a hotel in an average town in Colorado (NOT near any ski resorts) and I have checked in Gene Hackman, Peter Fonda, and William Sanderson as walk-in guests.  When Gene Hackman checked in, all I could think of was how SHORT he was!  To do the usual small talk thing, I asked why he was in town and he said he was on his way back to his ranch in New Mexico.  It was only a few days after the incident where he socked some kid and his knuckles were all cracked and bruised.  He didn't bother telling me he had a dog (which my hotel charges an extra $15 for.  Jerk.)\n\nWilliam Sanderson was really nice- gave me a business card. \n\nPeter Fonda.  THAT was crazy.  I just kinda' stared at him like this O_O


I'm looking for something similar to the PHP include("http://www.yahoo.com") and I know about the include file="" in asp, but it doesn't work for pages from other sites.

you would have to query the other website, get its output and write out to the RESPONSE part.\nBasically you would create something like a HTTPWebRequest which would request the page from the server, and then return to client, however please note that this might cause a delay in response as each request will go to the other server from your server before returning the response to the client.


personification is when you give human qualities to non-human objects.  It's been a long time since I've taken an English class, so I don't remember definitions for rhyme (should be self explanitory) and rhythm (althouth I believe it has to do with the cadence of the work).

I was in a really bad relationship previously when my ex used to abuse me. He's in jail now because of this guy I am friends with. We hang out all the time and my five year old son thinks the world of him. He is really funny and he is the total opposite of my ex. He is one of the nicest guys I have ever met in my life and every time I think of him I start crying because I care so much for him. How do I let him know I have feelings for him? I would do anything.

Tell him and be prepared for the worst.  Just in case.


Can you give me more examples of colloquial second person plural expressions in English? \n\nMy amateur understanding is that at one time, 2nd person plural and 2nd person singular were two different expressions: "you" and "thou", respectively. However, "you" came to be used in the cases of both 2nd person plural AND singular, and thou fell into disuse (not sure when this was). \n\nHowever, there seems to be a deep-seated need on the part of English speakers to invent new colloquial second person plural expressions to be able to distinguish between second person plural and second person plural. Over the years, I have noticed that the following 2nd person plural expressions:\n\nyou-all or y'all: southern US\nyouse: New York City \nyouse guys: New Jersey \nyou guys: Western US\nyuz: Baltimore \nyunze: Western PA\n\nand in fact now in Western PA, "yunze" is sometimes used for second person singular as well, so a new colloquial expression, "yunzes" has been invented to replace "yunze" for second person plural.\n\nDoes anyone know of any other similar expressions? Any comments?

You've got a pretty complete list here, I think.  I'll just add that I've also heard "youse" in a small town in Northwestern Ontario where I used to live.\n\nI guess my only comment in addition to what you've written above is that Standard English seems to be rare among European languages for having the same form for second person singular and plural.  The "deep-seated need" you mentioned is an obvious one: sometimes when you're talking to a group of people, it's hard to let them know if you're talking to just one of the group or the entire group when you say "you".  It happens all the time.\n\nA similar phenomenon to the one that you're describing also happened in Spanish some time ago with the creation of "usted", which is now used as the second-person singular formal form.  My understanding is that "usted" descended from the phrase "vuestra merced", meaning "your mercy" or "your grace".  The "vuestra" in this expression is a plural form and was originally used to address royalty (in English, for example, royalty has sometimes used plural forms like the "royal we").  Over time this form got shortened and was used for singular persons of all social classes.  So an originally plural form migrated to the singular in Spanish too.\n\nIsn't it interesting that language change can happen even on the aspects of language that we use so frequently, like the pronoun system?  No wonder I love it!\n\nToo bad the previous answerer thinks this is an example of "lazy" English.  I think this is an excellent example of a situation where "nonstandard" dialects are actually more precise than the standard option.

My 2-year-old recently had bronchitis. I brought her to the doctor because of the high fever, etc ... after pulling up her charts, they discovered she was (or would be in the next week or so) due for some crazy immunization shot that I had never heard of. They said it would be more convenient for them to give it to her right then and there. I disputed it, as kindly as possible, because previous shots have made her run fever and get really irritable. The doctor, nurses, etc. got really upset at me for "challenging their decision" and rarely speak to me anymore, in or out of the office. Who was right?

If a doctor EVER gets upset at you questioning them, they are automatically in the wrong. Part of their job is KNOWING. Whether or not it was dangerous isn't really the issue, but if they cannot give you a scientific reason that it is safe, then why should you listen to them? Because they have a piece of paper that says so? Please! \n\nI'm highly allergic to a specific antibiotic, which a doctor at one point prescribed to me due to a brain fart. If I didn't challenge that decision, I could be seriously harmed. Was I wrong for doing so? Of course not.\n\nAny good doctor will have faith in his answer, and a foundation for giving it, and would gladly have you seek a second opinion if you were in doubt, even after his explination.\n\nRemember, just because someone is educated does not make them automatically intelligent. Now if the answer is too complex for a patient to understand or comprehend, the doctor surely can't be condemned for that. But being uppity just because he was questioned is ridiculous.


A block of mass m slips on a rough horizontal table under the action of a horizontal force applied to it.The coefficient of friction between the block and the table is mu.The table doesn’t move on the floor.Find the total frictional force applied by the floor on the legs of the table.Do you need the friction coefficient between the table and the flooror the mass of the table?\nFor diagram follow the following link:\nhttp://img91.imageshack.us/img91/2020/untitled895bf.jpg\n\nI have just drawn a FBD but still unsure.\nThe FBD is here:\nhttp://img101.imageshack.us/img101/631/fbd3rn.jpg \nPlease Help me.

Since the table doesn't move, the sum of all forces on the table must equal 0.  If the block is slipping at constant velocity (no acceleration), then the sum of all forces on it is also 0.  The pulling force on it is mu*m*g, and the opposing force of friction between the table and block is also mu*m*g.  Because the table doesn't move, the frictional force between the floor and the legs of the table has to be equal and opposite to the frictional force between the table and the block, which is mu*m*g.  You don't need to know the coefficient of friction between the table and floor or the mass of the table.


Im looking for something that i can do from hom to earn some extra money. Something that dosent require alot of start up fee and something that will actually make money.

There are consumer research companies that will pay you a little to take their surveys online.

I worked for someone in his yard..did the hardest landscaping/developing work, he gave me the tools, sat my hours, my pay..10$/H..SOME WEEK i WORKED 50-60 HOURS. Never got overtime, any benefits in two years and he claims I was a independent contractor..he paid me weekly,never withold anything in my check..but when I asked about my status ..a got a answer.."dont worry, I know what I am doing  I am a labor lawyer" so I let it be..because I did not know any better and I trusted him.But after I got injured at my work/I was worked with him/ and now I own more then 10.000$  to a hospital...as soon as I got better I got fired too...and now I am staked with the bills..and I found out he never paid unemployment, medicare,tax after me...I am from europe..but he never even asked for my papers...what I have!! but as a labor lawyer ..he did realy good with me...I cant find any lawyer in my earea..who wants to talk to me..I dont know what to do..if anyone can help me that would be wonderfull..thank

If you had set hours, set tasks, and used his tools you probably aren't a independent contractor.  Are you sure this guy is a lawyer?  Look up his name on your local state bar website.  If he says he's a lawyer and he isn't, he's breaking the law.  A labor lawyer would have told you up front that you are considered an independent contractor because your situation is not uncommon.   Of course you have to pay taxes; the self-employment tax rate is 12.4% (up to a limit) for Social Security, and a 2.9% Medicare tax on all IC income.  There are some set guidelines on what makes an independent contractor.  Disputes usually occur when an employer wants to pay a worker under the table to avoid taxes. \nMy advice, seek out a pro-bono attorney.  There are law clinics for people who don't have a lot of money, or need assistance because they are new to the country.  Call you state and local bar association for information.  Check out the website Findlaw to read some basics on employment law.  Don’t fear the government if you owe back taxes.  Even if you were an independent contractor and failed to pay taxes on time the government will allow you to set up a payment plan.  One more thing, document everything - every discussion, phone call, message you have with your old employer.  You will need this information.\nGood luck!

hint:  it was worth it's weight in gold then and probably still is today.

Marco Polo (September 15, 1254, Venice, Italy; or Curzola, Venetian Dalmatia - now Korčula, Croatia — January 8, 1324, Venice) was a Venetian trader and explorer who, together with his father Niccolò and his uncle Maffeo, was one of the first Westerners to travel the Silk Road to China (which he called Cathay) and visited the Great Khan of the Mongol Empire, Kublai Khan (grandson of Genghis Khan).\n\nThis means that he was probably from Venice or Curzola(now in Croatia). Neither have been corroborated by historical evidence.\n\nThe main source of his family's income was a golden tablet (or paiza in Chinese, gerege in Mongolian) a foot long and three inches wide and inscribed with the words (Left Fig.): "By the strength of the eternal Heaven, holy be the Khan's name. Let him that pays him not reverence be killed." This tablet was given to his family by Kublai Khan

h2o has a stable oxygen atom, when heated gets converted to steam. hydrogen gas burns so why doesnt steam?

VTNomad is right.  Hydrogen gas is H:H (two hydrogen atoms sharing a covalent bond) and molecular oxygen is O=O (two oxygen atoms sharing two covalent bonds).\n\nOxidation results from electronegativity, or the affinity of atoms for electrons.  Oxygen is very electronegative, which means it really, really wants to have it's own electrons, and it hates to share them (metaphorically speaking, of course).  Hydrogen is not very electronegative, and its pretty content to walk around as a positive ion with no electrons at all.  It is the weakling on the school playground who will get beaten up and have its electrons stolen by the big kids, like oxygen and chlorine.\n\nTwo oxygen atons don't like having to share electrons, but they can't take them from one another.  But if an oxygen molecule sees two hydrogen molecules, then the two oxygen atoms will part ways, and each will beat up the hydrogen weakling and take both of its electrons.  The "fight" that ensues is fire, where the rapid loss of energy (O=O bonds and H-H bonds have a lot of energy, while H-O-H bonds are low in energy) becomes heat and light, aka fire.\n\nAn oxygen atom, though it likes electrons, will have a negative charge of -2 if it has the eight total electrons needed for Nobel configuration.  Likewise, Hydrogen will have a positive charge if denied its electrons.  So oxygen will let two little hydrogens tag along, and the H2O molecule is charge neutral.  But in water, the electrons are almost always around the oxygen, while the hydgrogen has very little chance of any electrons being around it for very long.  These bonds are low energy.\n\nOther things that burn--coal, gas, methane--these are things where carbon shares electrons with either more carbon or with hydrogen.  O2 will come along and steal electrons.  But O2 can't steal electrons from water, because the oxygen atom in water is just as tough (electronegative) as the oxygen in O2, so it won't win that fight.  But oxygen can take electrons from carbon (giving CO2, or carbon dioxide) or hydrogen, and it does.


I've heard 2 months to 3 years - which one is it?

I had braces when I was a teenager. In college, I noticed my teeth were moving and went back and got another retainer. I wore it until I got married and didn't want to mess with it anymore...big mistake!\nTeeth move!! Recently, I was fortunate to be able to have braces again. This time, I have a permanent wire retainer on the back of my teeth, top and bottom.\n\nMany of my cousins that had braces as teenagers, have repeated the process as adults. \n\nI have 2 daughters that have had their braces off for a few years and their orthodontist keeps them wearing their retainer at night and checks their teeth every 6 months. He advises to NEVER totally abandon the retainer. From my experience, that is excellent advice!!

Any good websites about Physics for noobs? Which could be recommended?

Well, I don't know about websites, but I am sure atleast about a book. It's called Understanding Physics and it's by Isaac Asimov. It's a little dry, and about twenty years old, but it is the best book on physics I have read. I am about halfway through right now, but I'm only 14. I just passed Thermodynamics, the light spectrum, and the particle vs. wave theory... It's a good book


What is the principle difference between restrictive cardiomyopathy and constrictive pericarditis of the heart disease?

To see if you have pericarditis, use this simple test:\n\n1. In a sitting position, lean forward like your going to touch your toes. Is there pain associated with it?\n\n2. In a sitting position, twist from side to side. Is there pain associated with it?\n\nIf the answer is yes to these questions, there is a good possibility that you have pericarditis. Pericarditis is the inflamation of the pericardium, or the membrane that surrounds the heart. It can be caused by fluid loss in the membrane or an infection. This condition can be reversed. Cardiomyopathy is a condition where cells of the heart have died, usually as a result of a myocardial infarction or ischemia. This condition is irreversible.

Im 32 years old, i feel that I need to gain weight, i feel that for a girl my height is not proportion to my weight. Im 5 feet 6 inches tall and my weight is only 110 lbs.

Okay, here is a responsible answer.  \n\nEggs are very good, and good for you.  High in calories, protein, good cholestorol, and omega-3 fatty acids (the good kind).\n\nYou can buy weight gain formula, but unless you are forking over big bucks (I'm not talking $40 for a big container with a screw on lid) for it, you are probably getting junk.  Do some internet research.  Read the ingredients list.  If you can't pronounce it, you probably don't want to ingest it.\n\nI encourage you to continue with a healthy diet, but try to increase your calorie intake.  Have more of healthy food.  Lots of protein.  Natural peanut butter is good (not the stuff with lots of sugar added), bread made from STONE GROUND wheat flour or sprouted wheat, not wheat flour or whole wheat flour, or enriched wheat flour.\n\nDo feel free to treat yourself occasionally.  Plan a candy bar for each day, or maybe even something like the new Snickers Marathon bar would be good.\n\nThere is just a few of my cents (as I walk the path of wholesome food).\n\nGood luck.


The Aborigines of Australia were cut off from the rest of the world long before Adam was supposed to have born according to the Bible.

yes from adam... duh.... they just evolved to have slightly different features to suit their environment....


I can't understand why so many people just "accept" the bible as the truth, without any evidence or proof of its validity in any way whatsoever. Most all of it is extremley far fetched, and I have trouble undertanding how so many people can believe in it. Heaven, hell, angels, none of which have ever been documented, nor can be documented, so why do so many people belive it?  I understand people that have had "expireinces" with "God", as they actually have something to base thier belives on.  But for the majority of Christains, what is it in thier psyche that tells them that what thier told, by a 2000 year old book, is the truth?

For the same reason people turn on a computer without understand it's nothing more than "controlled" charges.  If you look at the world understanding that, for example, light is a wave and a particle or that sound is nothing more than vibrations, you expose the "ugly" truth about the world.\n\nIn the same way that an operating system hides the 'ugly' fact that computers operate on charges, religion covers up the ugly truth of the world.\n\nHow does a computer work? Magic.  How was the world created? Magic.  How does the brain work? Magic.


last time I was thinking about hybridization\nfirst scientists thought that there is S P P P\nbut when they found out that they are the same length and said that they hybridized (somehow) to be sp3\n\nanother example is light, first scientists said its a  wave, then they said its a particle, then they came up with a funny conclusion which is light is sometimes wave and sometimes particle (dont ask me how!!!)\n\nsome people believe in darwin theory (which is just a theory) but they dont believe in god because there is no (theory) to prove his existance\n\nwhat I'm trying to say is that science is not everything, it is just the thoughts of many different scientists gathered, and in many times scientists can't prove a situation so they come with new definitions, so don't totally count on it.\n\nwhat's your opinion???

No, science is not everything.  It is only a method used to attempt to understand and predict the actions of the physical part of the Universe.\n\nBut there is more to the Universe than the physical part which can understood by objective means.  The inner universe (the subjective) is just as real and is beyond the realm of scientific thinking.\n\nI believe that Albert Einstein put it best with:\n“Science without religion is lame. Religion without science is blind.”

Jesus and the apostles did not get paid.  Paul did not get paid.  The apostles had jobs. Jesus did not have a salary. Paul had his own tent business.  They all may have accepted offerings from time to time but never drew a salary.  SHould modern pastors follow their example?\n\nIf tithes are for keeping on the lights, feeding the poor, etc.  , if the pastor's salary takes the biggest chunk of the tithe, then there is little left for legitimate expenses, and feeding the poor.  Most indiviual churches never feed the poor.  The pastor gets the whole thing....If the pastor is just giving sermons on sunday and neglecting the poor, should he give up the tithe to feed them?

I would make an arguement that the problem is not the salary of the pastor, rather it is the lack of tithing by the congregation.  I read recently that the average protestant Christian gives about 3 percent of his or her income.  Imagine what most churches could do with budgets that are 3.3 times what they have now.\n\nPastors have to pay their bills, and many have wives and children.  Most who enter the ministry don't do it to get rich, there are better ways to do that.  When I finish my Masters of Divnity degree, I will make about half as much as someone with an MBA.  But that's not why I am doing it.  I am doing it because  God called me into the ministry.\n\nAlso, most Pastors work much more often than on Sunday.  They are expected to be on call 24 hours a day 7 days a week.  They visit members in the hospitals and nursing homes.  They comfort those who expeirence loss and rejoice with a family at the birth of a child.  The pastor often also has to act as kind of the CEO of the church and attend numerous meeings outside of normal working hours.\n\nIf the church isn't paying him, how do you propose he make a living?


A good website with information would help a lot.

Positive impact: soft parts are used as food, hard shells used by craftsmen; also pearl oysters. Also some substances produced by mollusks are tested for medical use.\nNegative impact: some invasive bivalve species cause great money losses because they clog pipes and harm ship hulks.\nThis aside from the fact that they are essential components of food webs and thus participate in the ecological balance of terrestrial and aquatic systems. These so called "ecological services" are seldom recognized as economical benefits, but they should be.

I am a business owner and have never understood why we should match the social security and medicare funds that is taken out of our employees checks and send it to the government.  I asked a government official this question once. His answer: Because that is the way its always been. Typical.  We already pay our employees a salary, why should we shoulder the social security and medicare also?

When you hire a person to work for you in America, you have certain responsibilites, as they are not a piece of equipement or a machine.  The benefit you get from expanding your business by hiring people to work for you requires comes with certain responsibilities on your part.\n\nThe systems were set up to ensure that your employees would have some sort of safety net when they retired, so that no matter what happened or how cheap you were, if they worked for you their whole life, they would not be in complete poverty when they hit a point where they could not work any more.  \n\n\nThe lawmakers at the time decided that both the employer and employee should pay into this system, as they both had an interest in keeping a stable workforce with a promising future.\n\nOne of the alternatives suggested at the time was to require employers to provide pay and benefits to the employee at retirement.  That was scrapped in a compromise in favor of this proposal, as it is much more practical.

The question usually read his "white horse" but was it really white?  How do you know?

George Washington's famed white horse was of Arabian bloodline, as were horses owned by Ulysses S. Grant. In the 20th Century Arabians in America began to flourish, helped by the energies and interest of Carl Raswan (who loved his Arabian so much that he took his horse's name after its death) and American breeders such as W. K. Kellogg.\n\nThere are more Arabians in America today than in all other countries combined. And, without a doubt, they are Arabians of the highest quality.

So if mediation is Tuesday at 10 a.m. can the judge cancel it on Monday around 1 p.m.?

A judge can do anything calendar wise with proper notice and the following of the Rules of Court.  This all depends on your jurisdiction. I'd suggest you attempt to reschedule through the court's Clerk. If a judgment was entered despite the cancellation of a mediation or hearing, it MAY be the basis for an appeal, but once again it depends on the jurisdiction.

Fibonacci Numbers are the sequence of numbers defined recursively by:\n\nF(0)= 0\n\nF(1)= 1\n\nF(n)= F(n-2)+F(n-1)   for n > 1.\n\ni.e., \n0,1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,34,55.......\n\nThe earliest known reference to Fibonacci numbers is contained in a book on meters by an Indian mathematician named Pingala called Chhandah-shastra (500 BC). In the West, it was first studied by Leonardo of Pisa, who was also known as Fibonacci (c. 1200)


Hi my 14 month old daughter has pneumonia.  Besides the meds the Dr. gave her what is the best thing to do to make her feel better?  She is sleeping all day, not eating and coughing a lot.

her Dr.'s prescription is the best bet. you can try putting a humidifier in her room to help her breathe better when she's sleeping. and feed her chicken soup or hot liquids if she can't hold food down. she still needs her energy. hope she gets better really soon.


I think young girls dont bother about all that marriage stuff but the old generation considers that.

I don't think that it's an old-fashioned idea, it just seems that way because we are part of a generation where it is acceptable and our parents/grandparents' generations didn't accept it. As for whether or not I think it's a good idea, no I don't. There are way too many risks involved (pregnancy, STD's) and I don't think a lot of people are even capable of knowing what they would do if they got pregnant outside of marriage or contracted a disease that had no cure- not that they're stupid, just that you usually can't plan for those situations, and most people don't even think about those consequences when they are getting ready to have sex. It's true the divorce rate is high and so, you just have to really know the person you are going to marry before you marry them. That way you can be sure that when you have sex with him, if you get pregnant, he will be around for good.

Everything should have its own origin, like man from monkey, monkey from some small creature, that creature from cells, that cells from earth, earth from sun, sun from galaxy and so on. \ndid this chain has an end? i.e whats the origin of all?

Even though big bang theory suggests the origin of universe from singularity, there are many questions unanswered. There are theories that suggest that big bang is not the starting point but part of a cyclical process of several big bangs and collapes happening from time to time. The concept and understanding of infinity, multiverse and timelessness are beyond our comprehension and so looks complicated. I believe in multiverse with its own space-time. String theory explains it more. I would think of universe as being a big bubble with its own space and time and when collided with another bubble(another universe) would create chaos (or may be not) and eventually form a new universe. And this might be taking place with several universes at different levels(dimensions). This might or might not be true, but just wanted to throw my thought. Additional comments/thoughts are always welcome.

Haemorrhoids & Piles Advice required. Is surgery advisable?

Piles (haemorrhoids)\nThis factsheet is for people who have piles.\n\nPiles, or haemorrhoids, are areas in the anal canal where the tissue, which contains lots of blood vessels, has become swollen. Around half the population of the UK will have suffered from piles at some point.1 They are common in all age groups from mid-teens onwards and particularly common in pregnant women.1,2\n\nAbout piles\nPiles look like round pink swellings, the size of a pea or a grape. Sometimes they are a blue colour.\n\nPiles can be internal, inside the anus, or external, and be seen and felt on the outside of the anus. You can have internal and external piles at the same time.\n\nInternal piles\nInternal piles are classified according to their position.\n\nFirst-degree (or grade 1) piles are small swellings on the inside lining of the anal canal. They cannot be seen or felt from outside the anus. \nSecond-degree (or grade 2) piles are larger and stick out (or prolapse) from the anus when you go to the toilet, but return afterwards. \nThird-degree (or grade 3) piles are similar, but hang out from the anus and only return inside when pushed back with a finger. \nFourth-degree (or grade 4) piles permanently hang down from the anus and you cannot push them back inside. \nExternal piles\nAn external haemorrhoid (perianal haematoma) is a small lump that develops on the outside edge of the anus. They are less common than internal haemorrhoids.1\n\nSymptoms\nCommon symptoms include:\n\nblood from the anus, which you may notice on toilet paper, coating the stool or in the toilet after you have opened your bowels1,2,3 \nitchiness around your anal area1,3 \npain and discomfort after you have opened your bowels1,2,3 \na slimy discharge of mucus1,2,3 \na feeling that your bowels have not completely emptied1,2,3 \nThere are conditions other than piles that can cause bleeding from the anus. If you notice bleeding for more than six weeks then you should get medical advice.4\n\nPossible complications\nIf you have pain in your anus, this may mean that a complication has occurred and you should get medical advice. Complications include:\n\nstrangulation - when a pile that sticks out of the body (prolapsed pile) swells considerably and the blood flowing into it cannot return to the body.1,2 \nthrombosis - if the blood in the swollen pile clots, forming a thrombosed pile.1,2 \ngangrene (tissue death) - if there is a lack of blood supply to a pile.1 \ninfection - where an abscess may form around the rectum and anus causing pain and swelling.1 \nCauses\nThe exact way piles form is controversial but it may be linked to excess pressure in the anus and lower rectum. The rectum is at the end of your colon and is where faeces collect before they are expelled through your anus as a bowel movement.\n\nYou have an increased risk of getting piles if you:\n\nstrain to empty your bowels when constipated1,2 \nhave chronic diarrhoea1 \nare pregnant - as the weight of the fetus on your abdomen and the increased blood flow, as well as the effect of hormones on the blood vessels, can increase pressure1,2 \nhave a family history of piles - piles can run in families and are potentially hereditary, perhaps because of weak veins in the anal area1 \nhave varicose veins - many people with these also develop piles, although piles are not varicose veins2 \nhave cancer or growths in the pelvis or bowel, which may exert pressure in a similar way to a pregnancy2 \nHaemorrhoids are not caused by sitting on cold hard surfaces, prolonged standing or sedentary work.3\n\nDiagnosis\nYour doctor will ask you about your symptoms and will examine you. \n\nYour doctor may also carry out a rectal examination, where he or she will gently insert a gloved finger into your anus. Internal piles cannot normally be felt in this way, but the examination can reveal other problems which will need to be excluded before a diagnosis can be made.\n\nOne of the main investigations is a proctoscopy. A small telescope know


If you think the answer is it's shorter or quicker to say, then think again.  Reciting the five letters causes a person to utter five sylables.  Yet speaking the "double-A" version is a total of six sylables.

Like many acronyms, it has evolved into a pronunciation that, due to a more rhythmic sound, people are likely to find more "catchy" and memorable.\n\nAnd simply calling us "colored" doesn't make people racist, but imagining oversimpllified explanations for racial defensiveness probably does.

I know the law prohibits smoking in a public building, but is a parking area under a building (the building is fairly substantial, 8 stories high)with only two entrance/exits on each side wide enough for a car in each direction considered a "public building"?

No.  Because it is not illegal to smoke in your car...  Check out the ash trays and mini trashcans that are right below the elevator buttons in most parking garages.\n\nIt should be illegal...because the smoke gets sucked in each time the elevator door opens...but, the car exhaust gets sucked in too.\n\nThere should be a designated smoking area, that is protected from the elements.  But, that costs money, so I guess the parking garage is the next best thing.


I need to remove it from all of her clothing. I washed all of the clothing in vinegar, and then again in ALL and some of them still kinda smell. What else can I do?

Are you using a "no perfume" version?  I think that will be more important than the brand.  Maybe borax?\n\nETA: Adding baking soda to your wash, or just washing with baking soda should help some.


There is a guy I've been dating on and off for more than 4 years. Apperently he doesn't want the type of relationship that I want and he just wants to be friends. I'm comfortable with that, but I can't get him out of my mind "like that". I cannot stand being completly without him, so friends is okay, but that is always temping me to want more. I need to fall out of love with him.

Pancharito is right! I know you want to be friends with him, but you are in love with him. You will always be tempted to just crumble and tell him you want more. But you have to respect his wishes before those of your own if you truly do love him. *sigh* That's the part of love that is so hard. You'll never really fall out of love with him. But distancing yourself will make things easier for you. Get involved in activities you love and it will take your mind off of your heart. Besides, you might make some great new friends through your outside involvement. I do wish you luck........I know it is hard!

According to ya'll, what Bible provides the most information and does not exclude or take anything out of context?

The Autographa, or the words God breathed into the men who were to write them down, is the best.\n\nUnfortunately, it does not exist, and we only have copies of copies which now comprise our bibles.  That's why pastors are trained in Greek/Hebrew, and why many churches say they accept God's Word, as inspired in the original languages, as their sole source of authority.  Even so, there is no other earthly book that has been so scrutinized.\n\nIn English, The King James Version (KJV), though it has some mistakes, has stood the test of time, and the New KJV may be easier to read.  As the saying goes: if it was good enough for the apostle Paul, it's good enough for me!  \n\nSome versions seem to sacrifice meaning for simplicity.  However, JB Philips compiled a helpful paraphrase of the New Testament, and there is a paraphrase of the ASV called The Living Bible.\n\nIf memory serves, the (N)RSV/ASV were made to incorporate Common Greek instead of Classical Greek.  The New American Standard Bible (NASB) gives perhaps the best word-for-word translation, while the New International Version (NIV) is easier to read and uses an idea-for-idea translation.  \n\nOne of the latest translations is the English Standard Version (ESV), which is a blend of the RSV and the NASB having better accuracy & improved idioms.  It seems popular in conservative circles.


I know that because it's EB virus it stays with you for life. So you can't necissaraly 'get it again' but does that mean that i can relapse back in to the symptoms?

Once you have been infected with EBV, your body may periodically shed (or give off) the virus throughout your lifetime, possibly spreading the virus to others. This can occur despite the fact that you do not have symptoms after your initial mono infection; the virus may still be found in your saliva up to 18 months after you have recovered from your symptoms.


This is actually for a friend, who is currently looking for an new acoustic guitar to last him a lifetime.  The guitar will primarily be used for songwriting and performing (mostly alternative rock/brit-pop), will be strummed with a pick and will not be plugged in most of the time.  He actually plays bass in a band and will use this to write songs and occasional recording.\n\nAre there any other models from Taylor or other manufacturers he should consider?  The choice is limited here in Australia in the higher end of the market, but so far, he has prefered Taylor to Martins or Gibsons (as well as Matons).  \n\nFrom the little he's seen so far, he likes the sound, look and feel of the 814CE Limited edition, but says that all Taylors from 5-series and up are very impressive.\n\nI realize that this comes down to the individual choice but any input/suggestions would be much appreciated!\n\nStan

Absolutely, if you have the talent, creativity, are well spoken, the ability to sell yourself, and an AWSOME portfolio you should have no worries.  Remember to include at least 9 - 10 professional pieces (may not actually be published/printed but have a problem/solution worked out for all), a design book (which includes everything from doodles, ideas, conceptual designs and layouts), and a few personal/fun/hobby materials such as scratchboard art, paintings, websites etc. that you do for personal enjoyment to show an employer that you are completely well rounded.

How do I decide to purchase cotton crops from the farm at perticular price?

Read this and go to this site wow loaded on info!\nU.S. growers produce the world's highest quality cotton. \n\nSince the mid-80s, the fiber produced by the U.S. cotton grower has undergone an enormous transformation. U.S. upland cotton is longer, whiter, finer, stronger and purer than any ever grown. These changes result from an effective communications effort among textile manufacturers, cotton growers and seed breeders. Importantly, cotton fiber quality improved while yields continued to increase. \n\nPremium cotton fiber quality is essential to high-tech spinning operations. Technologically advanced equipment requires fiber that spins into consistent, high-strength yarn at speeds unheard of just 15 years ago. As a result, textile mills now can spin nearly 600 pounds of cotton into yarn per spindle each year. Ten years ago, each spindle only transformed about 200 pounds of cotton


if yes so tell me why because i think watching science fiction/hoarer movies is wasteing the time.\nwhat do you think abiut this..

I love horror movies. I love being scared, although most of them don't scare me. People watch drama, horror, science fiction, and comedy movies for entertainment. They choose movies because it appeals to them. Its the same reason you watch what movie types you like.

WHY does the emission spectrum from an element consist of a series of discrete colored lines rather than a continuous spectrum of color?

Atoms have what are called "orbitals" which are sorts of energy states that electrons can acheive. A certain set of orbitals are considered the ground state, which is to say that a neutral atom (meaning the atom has as many electrons as protons) will be at its lowest energy state when all electrons occupy the ground state orbitals. However, an electron can acquire extra energy which will raise the electron to a higher orbital. This can be done by heat or light. When an electron is elevated to a higher orbital, it is unstable, and it will eventually drop. When it drops back down to groundd state, it will release a photon which has a specific amount of energy--the difference in enrgy between the higher and lower orital.\n\nEnergy in a photon relates to its wavelength, and wavelength relates to color. Hence, for a given type of atom, the transition between two orbitals (which is set by the nucleus involving physical chemistry matters that are way too complex to speel out here) will always require a certain amount of energy, and the relaxation of an electron between those states will always release a photon of a specific color.\n\nThe continuous spectrum will result only from what is called "black body radiation," which results from a substance being thermally heated to the point where it throws off light.  This is generally seen in solids, like the filament of a lightbulb (incandescent light).  Conjugation of orbitals in a conductive metal like that make essentially infinite combinations capable of producing any number of wavelengths of light.  By contrast, spectra result usually from atoms in a gas phase, where there are limits to the sorts of energy they can absorb and emit.


I have a boyfriend yet I still fantasize about my coworker, I know it is not too serious because I do not dream about him, during the day that is what i think about sometimes. There is something about him but he kind of reminds me of my current boyfriend. Should I tell my boyfriend about it or just let it be my own little secret thing?

If you are sure its not too serious And you dont plan on taking action on the situation(like breaking up with your boyfreind over him)Fantasizing is A healthy thing~within limits.Some things though are better left unsaid~If you tell your boyfreind it would probably hurt him~whether he would show it or not!


I was looking for a certain person on myspace today. I did find a profile for them, but it really can't be them. I heard about this person being really good and going to college and stuff, but his "profile" was full of junk about him. I know it's totally untrue stuff because it's just not like him, and I talked to another friend about it who knows him a little better, and she said it's got to be an imposter too.\n\nHow do I report to myspace about this? I don't have this guy's phone # or email address. Actually I can't find him anywhere else on the internet. I don't know this guy very well, but I know alot about him through other people. \n\nPlease help. I hate it when people can get away with stuff like this.

There's a place on Myspace to report stuff like this.  It can be found on the bottom of every page.  So scrool all the way down, then click on contact myspace.  It tells you what to do from there. (the very bottom of the page, all the way to the end)


i'am 19 now.and i'm not tall enough as i want ..how can i increase my heights by using exercise method..i wish to know some website that posted that kind of exercise.. i know there many pills or tablets that guaranteed increase of heights. but they're way too expensive..

You will reach the peak of your height when your long bones (leg and arm bones) stop growing.  This is usually finished by your early 20's.

I have headaches very frequently, as well as lower back pain.  This has happened ever since I had my epidural with my daughter, so I assumed it to be just the side effects or long term effects taking shape.  I can typically deal with them, and have never really had much of a migraine, only sinus type etc headaches.  Today my head is hurting, and it feels more like a  burning on the sides of my head and in the front and on top.  My face kind of hurt so I thought it was a sinus infection or something of that sort.  My neck kind of burns tho too, anything else it could be?

I think that meningitis, both viral which is the non lethal one and bacterial which is deadly, have these symptoms.


I'm a new recruiter and am having trouble getting people to join the Army.  I have tried all sorts of things, but want to be totally honest and up front with prospective recruits.  Unfortunately, I'm not doing well.  Any ideas, help is greatly appreciated.\n\nThanks!!

The truth is if we can get our troops out of iraq you will see more people sign up. To most people right now it's like signing up for a game of russian rollette. Would you like to be the first one to put a gun to your head with a loaded chamber and pull the trigger. I think not. Till people know they don't have a risk of dieing because there most probley going to be shipped off to iraq your not going to see your recruitment numbers go up. The answer is support the troops but BRING THEM HOME!


I'm very lean and i want to improve and build my body. I have the habbit of m@sturbation. I do it  twice a week. does it affect improving the body ? what should i do ?

Proper diet(protein and carbohydrate rich)appropriate to you and systematic exercise will improve your personality. Its not the act of self-pleasure that affects your body but the ill feeling that makes u sick.  I need not tell u too much of anything is not good for your mind as well as body.  All the best for improving your personility!


I've made affairs with 7 girls till date. But none lasted for long. Whenever I see a girl I think of flirting with her. I'm always looking at girls in a different way. But even I few years ago I was very good,sober & gentle boy. the first girl i fell for refused me & from then my condition has been like this.(I was able to realise she was not at all my type)

when you really fall in love, all that playboy stuff will go out the window. My husband of 13 years used to be that way but now he is all mine and We have 2 beautiful children together. I know where he is all the time and he knows where i am. It's nice to feel secure and know that you have one person who will be there for you through thick and thin. By the way, the other lady had a good point. My husband also got saved and started going to church when we met. I think that is the biggest thing that changed him. Try it, you will never go wrong if you have God in your life.


From the book King Arthur and the kinghts of the Round Table.

In Arthurian legend, Morgan le Fay, alternatively known as Morgaine, Morgain or Morgana and a slew of related name variants, is a powerful sorceress and sometime antagonist of King Arthur and Guinevere.\n\nMorgan is the daughter of Arthur's mother, the Lady Igraine and her first husband, Gorlois, Duke of Cornwall; Arthur is her half brother by Igraine and Uther Pendragon. Morgan has two older sisters, Elaine and Morgause, the latter of which is the mother of Gawain and the traitor Mordred. In Sir Thomas Malory's Le Morte d'Arthur and elsewhere, she is married, unhappily, to King Urien of Gore and Ywain is her son.\n\nHere is a link to a complete write up on her:\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morgana


We met about a month ago and he called me last week.  We went to the same bar we met at and ended up back at my house.  We did end up having sex, but there was definetly no akwardness afterward.\nHe called me the next day and two days later.\nWe've talked on the phone and again, it was not weird or forced....felt comfortable the whole time.\nDid I ruin things by sleeping w/ him too soon?  He seems to be into me, but how can I be sure?

You can never be to sure in situations like this. Just go with the flow of things and play everything by ear.

Specially I want to know do they cause your stomach grow bigger , like beer or not ?

Calories that oyur body takes in and does not burn make you fat, so 0 calorie will not directly make you fat.  However, there is some evidence that artificial sweeteners (used in 0 caloire drinks) can slow your body's metabolism.  This would cause your body to burn fewer calories, so other calories obatained in the diet could make you fat, because not as many are burned.\n\nIt is speculated that there is possibly a feedback mechanism for sweet taste.  When the body experiences a sweet taste, it expects calories rich food.  If it gets that sweet taste and not the expected calories, it may lower its calorie consumption rate.  None of this is certain from what I have read, only speculation.


What next?? \nThe western countries cannot blame the people of these countries for making their choices

Good point :)\n\nOf course, by "democracy" we usually mean "freedom to vote for the leaders we like". And oh look, Condi Rice cut off aid to the Palestinian government.


in some songs they talk about stuff like "ill forget all the diamonds you ate" or "we could was down this engagement ring with poison and kerosene"\n\ndoes it mean anything

the lyrics are making an attempt to explain that the person they speak of has taken something of great value and rendered it worthless. \nLike the gift of love.\nhe's trying to make clear that their love is doomed.


With the median home price at 419 thousand dollars what are working families to do?

what happens through that  time when  u r  on it

blood flows out, your weight or size basically determines if you get heavy periods or light periods. every 28 days from the last day of your period to the start of your next,some peoples last maybe less than 5 days and some others last up to 8 days, you get cramps, your lower back aches, sometimes you get bloated, u get tired, and thats all i can think of.


if yes,do you think he should be impeached?\nif no, where would you draw the line on citizen privacy?

Yes, of course he has broken the law.  Regardless of his representations to the contrary, there is no such authorization in the Constitution, in case law, or in the statutes or regulations.  His behavior is impermissible and he should most definitely be impeached for illegal wiretapping and, if found guilty, be removed from his office in disgrace.

So like this guy that used to like me, were just friends now, but he imed me last night and told me that we couldn't be friends anymore because I brought up some feelings he had for me. Should he be able to just drop our friendship like that? What should I do?

It depends on the two of you. I know a ex married couple that stayed friends after 24 years of being divorced. Thats a long time and a rare occassion. They are my parents lol. Now if you ended on bad terms and are trying to get along then probably not. Or maybe he is still into you and just wants to end it before he gets caught up into the feelings all over again knowing that you can never be together.

I love my BF so much and I think he's the one for me. Everyone at my school think that we're brother and sister.

there are some married couples or Bf & GF that look alike i think if you realy like him dont worry about it as long as you know your not brother & sister!


I was listening to the radio this morning and there was a woman who says that  women are always portrayed as needing "help" and that they don't need the help of "men" and that they can defend themselves.  And Antonio was wrong for going in to help his wife when she didn't even ask for his help.  Was he wrong?

if he thought his wife was in danger, he acted properly. if my friends or girlfriend was in danger, i would act regardless of sex (for friends, i mean), to ensure that they are safe. \n\nits not a sexist thing, its a husband/wife and friend thing. you look out for one another.


i didnt do well in college last semester, im looking for new ideas to keep me focused & interested. any thoughts?

I like to take notes, or highlight the valuable information, then make an audio recording of it. You listen to it many times, before long its imprinted on your brain....like a bad song.


I am a 27 year old woman, I was married and divorced once. I strongly agree that whoever you marry shall be yours in this life.Also I am a Christian and have been taught that ivorce is not o.k. in Gods eyes. My ex divorced me and is not a believer of God.So I am now engaged to a man whom has also been through a divorce, is it a sin to remarry? I have read in the Bible and I do not understnd if it is o.k. or if it is a sin from a Christian point of view...please.

I am a christian and it is not a sin to remarry because give someone he knows will love you for who you are. Although It did not work the first time. God is there to help you and bless you with someone who can love you as much as he do. but make sure the next is your last. make sure in your heart, mind and soul that you both are in love with each other and God himself.


What do the marines d0? what can i do to get ready for the marines?

The modern day US Marine Corps is a small, highly trained force-in-readiness that can deploy anywhere in the world with very short notice.  While traditional missions consisted of amphibious operations, modern Marines operate in all areas of modern combat, from ground infantry to air combat.  \nMarine Boot Camp is conducted at Parris Island, SC. or San Diego, CA. and is 12 weeks, and is gender seperate.  Marines other than infantry continue on to Marine Combat Training, which teaches basic infantry skills, Individual MOS schools can vary from 2 weeks to 1.5 years.  \nTo prepare for Boot Camp, physical fitness should be your primary concern.  the ability to run at least 3 miles, crunches, and pull-ups should be your goals.    It is tough physically, but the most challenging part is the mental/physical stress placed upon recruits by the Drill Instructers.  For 12 weeks, you will be always moving; always accountable for yourself and the platoon.  Always tired.  Life in the fleet is also challenging- long hours (depending on MOS), deployments (including combat) and strict adherance to rank discipline are just a few of the daily challenges of a good Marine.\nUnlike any other service, Marines are a elite brotherhood- just becoming a "Marine" is a great achievement that will change your life, possibly forever.  Marine is not a job, it is a way-of-life.       It is true- "Once a Marine, always a Marine"\nYou may come to hate it or Love it, but The Corps will get in your blood and never leave you.


my sister is being tested for it and ask me to get information for her.

Not sure that there is such a thing. I think you might mean Raynaud's disease. It is a circulation disorder where your peripheral circulation (to fingers and toes) is impaired and these parts feel cold and numb in response to cold and stress.\n\n During a Raynaud's attack, these arteries narrow, limiting blood circulation to affected areas.\n\nYou can have Raynaud's without any underlying disease associated with it, in which case it's called Raynaud's disease or primary Raynaud's. Or it can be part of another disease, in which case doctors may refer to it as Raynaud's phenomenon or secondary Raynaud's.\n\nRaynaud's disease affects a small percentage of Americans. Women are more likely than men are to have the disorder. It's more common in people who live in colder climates.\n\nHere are some very good sites for information:

I know I am nit-picking. I hope I do not offend anyone with this question. I just would like to know what the explanation of this situation is according to the church or other people.

The Catholic church calls her the Virgin Mary. The Protestant church just calls her Mary. Despite the fact that the Bible records that Jesus had brothers. The Catholic church edits this out of their Bible and calls Mary a perpetual virgin.\n\nMary only had one virgin conception and birth, and that was Jesus. After that, she conceived via Joseph.\n\nSee my explanation below for the reason for the virgin birth.


Cassno , the Italian player , will play with Real Madrid begening from month .

no... real has got more than enough strikers... with the likes of ronaldo, robinho, baptista, raul, soldado... how could you possibly slip in antonio cassano in that list... he'll probably be like owen or morientes, not used so much... what a waste... i think they should more money on buying midfield players especially a playmaker and possibly a defender or two...

If I was getting married for the first time??? If so how can I do it but have it be fairly inexpensive.

If you want a fancy ceremony, go for it.  A nice one would be in a park.  VERY inexpensive.  Or in a greenhouse.  I had mine there and they took care of everything for a VERY low price and even helped me find a minister.  I think it was like $100 and they set up the chairs and flowers and alter.  It was so beautiful.  Then we had our reception at a decent restaurant that had a buffet line.  The whole wedding only cost about $500 which is actually really cheap.  And it was wonderful to top it off.  You could get a teenager to do the music.  A friend to take pictures.  You dont need a lot of money to have an incredible wedding.  Just some imagination is all.


My present connection speed is 26400 bps.  Any recommendations for new isp?

If you're dialing changing ISP's will probably not work. \n\nIf you're connecting at 26k it seems to me like you have either a really old modem or perhaps faulty wiring or even just line noise.\n\nI would switch to some form of broadband access imediately. DSL is good but Cable is faster.

WHERE IN THE WORLD IS CONSTANTINOPLE AND MILAN , I AM DOING A MAP ON THE ANCIENT ROMAN CIVILIZATION AND NEED TO LABEL THESE BUT I DON'T KNOW WHERE THEY ARE, PLEAS ELET ME KNO WHERE THEY ARE IF U DO KNO...THANX

Constantinople is in Turkey(actually Istambul).The origin of tihs name was of the name of the Roman emperor,Constantine.It was the capital of Oriental Roman Empire after Constantines´s death.\n\nMilan is a city in Italy.It is presumed Milan was originally founded by the Celts of Northern Italy around 600 BCE and was conquered around 222 BCE by the Romans, who gave it the name of Mediolanum. In the 4th century CE, at the time of the bishop Saint Ambrose and emperor Theodosius I, the city was briefly the capital of the Western Roman Empire. At that time Milan was the second largest city in Europe, with more than 300,000 inhabitants.

do they want to be schooled? do they like to be babied? or is for the good *&*$%##@ !!

older women are more understanding and they appreciate every little thing you do.Besides they are more experienced when it comes to sex, they teach u well, do no swell, do not yell and there is no risk of wedding bells. thats why they love older women dear.


It can be used as a pronoun or as an adjective.

Originally "grifter" was U.S. street slang for a trickster, especially one who operates a wheel of chance or other device on circus grounds.  Now it probably means any scam artist (especially in  pairs) as showed in a movie by that name.


My daughter is really shy.  Any pointers on what I can do to break of her shyness?

do not try to break her out. it needs to happen naturally. the danger is that she will think her feeling are wrong and instead of being natural in public she will always feel anxious adn the need to put on an act to impress others. If she is overly shy respect her boundaries and do not humiliate her for it. Instead build her confidence by affirmation.


There was a time when it was very difficult for me to forgive someone, not even for the smallest mistake. Over the years, forgiving someone has become v easy for me. I cant remain angry with someone for long. Is forgiving a weakness or is it a sign of spiritual growth?

For me it is a sign of spiritual growth.  Forgiveness means that in your heart you are showing love for someone who has weakness, just as we all do.  It's not holding a grudge or hating them for what they did to you.  It's understanding that we all fail or make mistakes at times, and that none of us are perfect.  It's understanding that in order to receive forgiveness, we must give it.


I just got promoted (thanks) and want to thank my boss (male) and his boss (female) since they have taken good care of me.  Looking for a nice gift, that shows some class, but nothing too personal. (No golf stuff)

do NOT give gifts of thanks for your promotion. you EARNED what you got. i know you must feel thankful and all that but they do not expect a gift and its not even really appropriate .the best "gift" you can give them is to continue to do your best and show them you deserve it!


To contain a nuclear blast, Say for instance the biggest bomb that exists how would you do it.  Just like a fire cracker if its inclosed it will make a huge boom (lots of pressure), but exacly how many feet thick would steel have to be to contain a blast like that?  Like a ball of steel.

This is too hypothetical to be a real problem.  The heat generated would also deform the steel.  For the current largest Thermonuclear bomb you would be looking at something approaching distances in the wall of the container approaching a mile.  Even this depends upon the volume contained within.\n\nFrom a practical aspect, if one took all of the world's current steel production for one year, you might have enough steel to construct such a device (about 5 million metric tons).  If you miscalculated, you would get an even larger boom (like putting a cherry bomb in a sealed pipe).\n\nA bomb is not a nuclear generator.  Read at the site below for information on a Soviet 100 megaton bomb:

okay, he:\n-likes to pick me up (never gone 4 the butt tho)\n-likes to smell my hair\n-he likes to pretend like he's all sexy & stuff around me, even though in the public eye he probably isn't\n-he's REALLY funny in my opinion, like he talks a certan way around me, and all my friends say that whenever tehy mention me around him his face lights up for a second\n\nPLEASE SOMEONE DECIPHER THE STUPID CODE!!!! WHY DO GUYS HAVE TO ACT SO PRIMATIVE?!?!

Sounds like he's really flirting with you.  Does he talk to you about other girls?  If so, then you're probably just a "buddy".  If not, then he's probably into you.  Depending on how well you know the guy, meaning his personality, you might already have other clues as to whether or not he likes you.  Does he let you pick out the movie?  Does he listen to what you say, not just sit there with a blank look on his face?  The face lighting up thing is a give-away, but be careful, friends will often tell you what YOU want to hear.  FYI guys are not always primitive, depending on your personality maybe he wants you to make the first move.  Guys sometimes like a "sure thing" too (nothing dirty is implied by that).  Another thing, why would he go to the trouble of faking flirting with you?  Does he get something out of "fake" flirting???  If all else fails, be direct, ask him if he thinks you're girlfriend material.  Depending on how he answers the question, you'll know.

The ball is placed on the first line of the square after it has been sent out by the other team . Instead of shooting the ball far away , yhe goalkeeper kicks it back in the target .

Once the ball is in play, a goal is considered a goal regardless of which player kicks it. Several renowned goalkeepers have inadvertantly scored own goals - mostly while under pressure from the opposing strikers. but occasionally out of pure stupidity.

I'm from the US and my fiance lives in London. I think we've decided to go with the Fiance visa rather then the 130 after getting married. Does anyone know how long this might take? Or been in the same situation?

It took me approximately 4 months to hear from the embassy after my fiance sent the F-129 form, and after that another 3 months for me to get the visa. If you have any more questions let me know, we got married and we are not done yet. Good Luck.


I need to do a comparative solvent test.  The procedure calls for Petroleum Benzine.  Is gasoline a close enough solvent?

I don't understand what you are trying to test or why you are doing the test. But  gasoline is a mixture of hydrocarbons ranging from five to twelve carbon atoms . Most of those hydrocarbons do not resemble benzene in structure. Gasoline has benzene as a minor component. \n\nA better substitute would likely be toluene or xylene since these are both very similar to benzene in structure and only differ by one functional group on the ring of carbon atoms.

Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle says the Vice-President "requested on several occasions that we not have an investigation into this issue".\n\nWhy?\n\nMore questions:\n\nWhy wouldn't the President and Vice President testify in front of the 9/11 Commission separately?\n\nWhy did they refuse to go under oath?\n\nWhy did the Bush administration allocate less to investigate 9/11 than the space shuttle explosion?

Unless you are a Bush lover, I think its pretty clear on why to all the questions, because there is some guilt to go around in the goverment!

No Arab or Islamic states voted for the creation of Israel. In fact, they all voted against it, while many other states abstained. Voting against were: Afghanistan, Egypt, Iran, Iraq, Lebanon, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Syria, Turkey, and Yemen.


How about Reiki or energy healing?  Real or just wishful thinking?

I think that therapeutic touch has to do with certain learned techniques, such as Reiki, massage, etc, that is used for specific ailments, injuries and so forth, and that a lot, or some schooling, and/or certifications are required. I believe that the laying on of hands is a more scriptural, and spiritual situation, in which the person laying hands is asking God to intervene through them, and through the power of the Holy Spirit, preform healings either for physical ailments, mental issues, or any area of a persons life that may need spiritual healing. I think that in both their are similiarities, meaning, that even though it is a more clinical term, therapeutic touch is , or can be given by highly spiritual people, and on the other hand, as much study as can be involved in therapeutic touch, there are cases of extreme healing done by people with no training, but by the laying on of hands, and the power, and belief there-in.


Is there any product that help my allergy to cats?
