look, who am i to say for sure? now, i'm not saying this is 100% accurate, but thise is my opinion:\n\nwe are born with one MAIN purpose, which is basically to reproduce and keep the human race going. However, there are also other SECONDARY - yet equally important - purposes. \n1) like making sure that the offspring u bring into the world will actually BENEFIT the world and (not just be a burden to it), \n2) or like living a righteous, happy life, where you notonly benefit others, but yourself, too.\n3) or maybe even to make a difference in the world and actually leave a legacy behind for future generations. it doesn't have to be something major, like discovering the lightbulb or america. just SOMETHING. it could be a new way of buttoning up jeans besides buttons and zippers, or it could be a new and improved outlook on life....anything that would make even the tiniest difference in the world as we know it!\n\nwell, that's what i think, any way. some people might agree with me. but i'm won't judge those who don't.

stop talking about love, and relationship, it sounds like she likes you, but she has been hurt, and does not wanna get hurt again, she asked for time, give her the time that she needs, and besides that just ask her out on a date, dont push her to something she is not ready to do.

What is a good detox for cleaning your system?

i recommend certain types of organic teas without any sugar. there are teas for fasting and detox which do the trick. They usually contain dandelion and dont taste the best.


That all depends on what you are doing.... Putting in a new fridge, no.  Replacing the stove, no.  Fixing a hole in a wall, no.  Now, are you going to replace wires in the home or unit, yes.  Most trade jobs that require an licensed expert and the answer is yes.  Just look at the liabilities of what appears to be a simple thing of hooking up a new service to a hot tub and then something going terribly wrong and that should open your eyes to having the proper license.  Listen to those that say you do not need one at all and you may get by until something happens. Just call your local building inspector what you are requested to do a job that you think may need license and they will be able to tell you.


before joining the church,make sure that it is everything you are looking for in a church. Make sure that there believe is the same as your own. There are no rules that state you must join in order to go and be a part ofit.

Get myyahoo.com, you can add all sorts of features including weather.  If you would like weather on your toolbar, go to weather.com and they have a program that will show the current temp on your toolbar and alert you to any severe weather alerts.


Voluntary, even with family. You can call the love for family an unconditional love, but you can hate family too due to other circumstances...so it is not involuntary. I think you can protect yourself from loving someone in the aspect of the capital "L" for L-O-V-E. I've once trained myself to do that as a protective mechanism from getting hurt. I would not say that I had a commitment phobia, but I did it more to not have my emotions overpower my other functions from continuing life. People can "resist the power of love" if they have the will. Depending on how strong that will is...well, it can vary person to person. I am in voluntary love right now, but I will also say that it used to be much more restrained for personal reasons.


Try to imagine the whole Universe. Do you also have the strange feeling that you exist for ever?

you do exist forever. your body is only a house for your soul. when you die, the soul/ you, lives on. If you have not accepted christ as your savior, you will go to hell. if you are his child and have accepted him you will go to heaven. it's that simple. question is, where do you want to exist forever?


Two reasons.  First, they don't read very much.  Readers see properly spelled words and then can spell well themselves.  Secondly, people rely so much on spell-checkers.  So they never internalize proper spelling.\n\nPeople who read and write tend to spell well.

where can I get a ten page paper about the differences about the four types of libraries?

Why don't you just quit school and get a job instead of taking up space that someone who really wants to learn could use?

how elastic is the demand for over-the-counter pain relievers?

My guess is that, in general, demand would be fairly inelastic.  People are in pain all the time (I mean, nothing is happening in general to reduce people's little aches and pains) so, their overall demand for pain relievers won't change much with regard to a change in price.\nI would think that where you would see price elasticity would be for brand name pain relievers.  As the price increases for pain relievers like Tylenol, Alleve, and Advil, I would expect to see demand fall, but it would shift to generics, like Wallgreens, Walmart, CVS, and other  store brands of the same underlying pain killers (generic ibuprofen, etc.).


what is the phone number for american idol voting?

Hmmm... judging by your interest in cleaning products and dishwashing detergents, I'm guessing you're in that industry or just a student looking for some answers for a project.\n\n-Insufficient data - \nAre you referring to dishwater in a more sterile kitchen or a dirty restaurant?  Is the piping clean or are we talking rusty piping?  Filtered water or non filtered water? Hmmm... so, at STP you want to figure out this. \n\nHere's what you would need.  First figure out the type of microbes that would typically exist in your sink.  Or if you don't have one, get some kind of bacteria.  Take the whole thing, perform your experiment.  Take some water samples.  Finally, send the water samples to a lab immediately for a count.  You could get a concentration of microbes per given volume.  My advice -- it's all I can do.

Grenada, St. Patrick, & the Irish\nBy Margaret Hughes.\n\nSpanning slavery, war, education and the Catholic Church, Grenada has an intimate association with Ireland. One outstanding sign of this is the parish of St. Patricks which carries the name of Ireland's patron saint.\n\nPatrick was captured and brought to Ireland as a slave from Europe about the year 400AD. He worked as a shepherd for some years, escaped and made it back home across the sea. Later, when he became a Bishop, he asked Rome to send him to Ireland to bring Christianity. He arrived in 432 AD. There was a Celtic festival at the beginning of Spring each year when the High King was the first to light the dawn fire on the hill of Tara, seat of the Kings. This established the power of the King. Patrick was a remarkable stratagist and, in order to get an audience with the King, decided he would light the first fire on the hill facing Tara. The ruse worked and the King sent for this audacious man. Patrick brought the Good News of Christianity and the King and his Kingdom were converted without bloodshed\n\nPatrick's writings exist to this day and his most famous hymn is called the Breastplate of St. Patrick. The Seat of the Catholic Church is still at Armagh where Patrick established it. He is portrayed in bishops outfit carrying a staff and a Shamrock. The shamrock, which is the national emblem, is a native three leaf plant which Patrick is alleged to have picked and displayed to demonstrate the Trinity---three in one.!\n\nIn the 1600's, the dispossessed of Ireland presented a problem.Their lands had been taken away by the English. They were rebellious. One solution was found in carting them off to the sugar plantations of the Caribbean. So began the process of forced emigration. In the Treaty of Galway document, 1660, it is amazing to learn that one quarter of the city was sent to Barbados."Barbadoing" was a dreaded word. It meant than any hapless person found wandering about would be picked up and sent to the WestIndies. These captives were found to be useless at cutting cane under tropic sun due to the tenderness of their skin---and so became known as "Red Legs"\n\nIn 1779 the next significant group of Irish arrived in Grenada. It was the military contingent called the Irish Brigade under Count Arthur Dillon and his brother Edward. The Irish Brigade known as "The Wild Geese" were the leaders and their followers who left Ireland after the Plantation of 1601 to form armies in Europe to fight the English. These fearless soldiers arrived in Grenada with D'Estaing as part of the French Army. After a brillant manoevre by the invaders, the English surrendered without a fight and the town of St. Georges was handed to the Irish troops for looting. It is said that the Irish behaved in an exemplary fashion due to their own personal experience at home. It is interesting to note that families of D'Estaing and Dillon are well and alive today---direct descendants became Prime Ministers of France and Ireland respectively in the 1970s\n\nThe number of Irish wandering the earth increased dramatically in the 19th Century due to the Great Famine---the last famine in Europe---when 4 million Irish died or emigrated across the English speaking world. The numbers of these to arrive in Grenada were legion: O'Neal, O'Halloran, O'Brien, O'Reilly, O'Sullivan, Murphy, McCann, McGuire, McSweeney,McCarthy, McCabe, Quinn and of course, Grenada's own Galway Donovan, mentor of national hero, Teddy Marryshow\n\nIn 1827, the first Irish priest arrived in Grenada, a Fr. O'Callaghan. He was followed by Fr. Anthony O Hannan, who caused a rift in the Catholic Church in St.Georges and set up his own church for six years at the building in Lucas Street, still known today as La Chapelle.\n\nThe last formal group to arrive were the Irish educators. Kiltegan Fathers, Presentation Brothers and Sisters of Cluny who have done enormo

It is hard to call, but my momma always said, 'once you lay down in a bed of fleas, it is hard to get rid of the itch', meanig once he do it, get away with it and come back, he knows he can do it again and agaa=in.  but if your love is strong take him back, but know your relationship will be strained for a long time.  And baby girl, please promise me if he do it again, you will not let him sweet talk you back into his life.

Question for females only. Tats and piercings, Hot or not?

I am a huge fan of piercings on men and women! and I like tats if they are tasteful.  I have one tat on the back of my neck (so it can be covered by my hair if neccessary) and 9 piercings.  There are a lot of places on the ear you can pierce and be really creative with.  There are also other places that I would highly recommend having pierced;)  You can even do a tat with a piercing in it.  Either way you go be careful.  Be sure to have a professional do it and make sure the establishment uses sanitary needles and has plenty of experience.  Tats are permanent! and if the artist messes it up your still stuck with it.  Piercings can cause nerve damage and infections.  Both tats and holes need lots of care afterwards.  The decision is yours!  Good luck!


do you think the off spring of bacteria is geting stonger that one day it will be undistructible???

I do and I see it every day in the health care field that I am in. There are so many mutating "bugs" out there now that it is frightening!(See VRE, MRSA) These mutations are resistant to most of our known antibiotics, and although every year science is able to provide us with better, stronger, varied antibiotics that DO work on the resistant bacteria and virus's, I fear the day will come when we run out of solutions, and people will start dying from pneumonia and illnesses such as this because the viruses and bacteria will be resistant to everything we throw at them.\n\nOne of the best ways to protect yourself is to be very selective about taking antibiotics. Many doctors still give them profolactivly, which is a bad idea because you don't want your body to build up resistance.\n\nGreat question!!


Do you find it somewhat obnoxious when people answer your questions with- IDK, but I just got 2 points?

Although I have yet to ask a question I think in some situations it’s almost appropriate.  When someone asks a question that makes no sense, and its just words strung together incoherently.  You ask a stupid question you deserve a stupid answer.\n\nIt gets irritating when someone asks a good question, and the person answering does not know anything about the subject so they simply respond with "2 points" (or something strikingly similar).

Why are gasoline prices rounded to nine tenths of a penny per gallon?

probably to get a little more from the consumer, and since it has stood the test of time and no one has complained then they left it. It is the same reason we buy stuff for 9.99, which is really just 10 buck, but we look at it as nine. It appears cheaper.


Can anyone explain the Enron case? What happened, how and by whom?

In early 2000, Enron, the natural gas pipeline company\nturned online phenomenon, held a daylong conference in Houston for Wall\nStreet analysts and investors. The audience, packed with financial experts\non the natural gas and power industries, was wowed by all the talk of\nEnron's online capabilities, especially its rapidly growing business of\nelectronically matching buyers and sellers of numerous commodities like\nelectricity and even network bandwidth.\n\nThe analysts were particularly receptive when Jeffrey Skilling, then Enron's\npresident, suggested that the company's money-losing broadband network\nbusiness alone was worth $29 billion, or an extra $37 a share. He even had a\nnifty PowerPoint slide to explain his company's proper stock price.\n\nUnsurprisingly, Enron's shares skyrocketed by more than 50 percent in the\nfirst half of that year. Enron, it seems, had become an Internet company,\nand decidedly old-economy energy-industry analysts were loath to be left\nbehind. \n\nThe problem is that it was all a lie.  Company executives used inflated numbers and faked financial reports.  The stock price plummeted and investors, including retirement plans that had invested in Enron, lost tons of money.

well for starts she really does need to talk to someone but if she will not she needs to  be sure that this person who forces themselves on her that she doesn't want to have any further relations with him/her if that doesn't work and the person is violent then the only thing you can do is to report it to the correct officials because if you don't your conscious will haunt you for the rest of your life and if you lose her as a Friend it is better to have cared and lost than to have been quite and watched a death don't you think?!

does anyone know like since the Patriot act was passed what kind of an impact it has had on domestic terrorism

Its hard to say because any leads would be highly classified by the government. Stopping a terrorist would be a great boost in support for the Bush administration, however releasing such information could pose a threat to national security. Although they did release info on the terrorist who was planning to attack LA, who was stopped by a Canadian border official. That didn't have anything to do with the Patriot act though, as the offical stopped the man on a hunch.


how to take a shameless ex out of your mind?

One of the few things that you can do to stop thinking about an ex, is to find someone new that you can go out and date (hence: rebound)


i'm thinking of importing jewelry from india.  whats "required"? --- customs and such. have read gov't. guide.

Your best bet would be to contact a local Customs Broker as they deal with import regulations all day.  Also, a lot of Couriers have their own in house brokerage department. So if you know what courier you will be using, contact them and ask if you can speak to someone in the Customs Brokerage department, they should be able to either transfer you or give you another phone number to call.\nIf I knew what country you are from, and if this was being imported for personal or business use, I might be able to give you some more information.

How many US Troops are still in Afghanistan?

Currently, there are about 20,000 American troops in Afghanistan at any one time. This number fluctuates on a daily basis as new troops arrive in country and other troops finish their tours and head home.\n\nThere is a plan in place to reduce the number to about 16,000 American troops by bringing in troops from other NATO countries. Hopefully, this will happen sometime this spring.

I got divorced 7 years ago, why is it allowed for the ex-wife to keep taking me to court?

She can sue you for whatever she wants and whenever she wants....your issue is with the judgements made against you...not her lawsuit.  Divorce law varies by state....and I don't know where you are...but the general guide is that every 4 years of marriage equates to a year of support.  The support is based on an income grid, and considers other factors like disabilities, education, etc.  If you keep losing in court my advice would be getting an attorney, or a better one, before next hearing.


Depends on your state. The best thing to do is contact the Board of Education in the city or county you want to work for. The two states that I am most familiar with, Virginia and California, don't require a degree to substitute. California requires passing a standardized CBEST test though. Both required a pretty involved backgound check, application process and orientation seminar before a person could begin subbing.

Which one of the following statements is most accurate for law enforcement?

The best answer would be (c.), Law enforcement officers are mainly required to uphold the law.\n\nWhy?\n\nA) is incorrect.  Law enforcement agencies are a state body, as is the court system.  Law enforcement is critical to the administration of justice, as is the court system.  But Law enforcement is NOT employed by the court system.  If that were the case, there would be serious problems with neutrality.\n\nB) is somewhat correct and somewhat incorrect.  Police officers do undergo some basic evidence training, with regards to interviewing suspects and witnesses at the scene, crime scene management, and evidence collection.  But the ordinary patrol officer lacks sufficient training to gather evidence for a case, just as a paramedic is not qualified to do surgery.\n\nD) is incorrect, if I understand the question.  The FBI, DEA, and U.S. Marshals are all National Law Enforcement bodies.

what are the manufacturing processes for sealing rubber gaskets?

There are a variety of different types of rubber used in rubber gaskets.  The choice is based on cost, operating environment, temperature range, pressure range, and the potential chemicals it will come in contact with.\n\nNatural rubber is almost never used, since its longevity is usually inferior to synthetics.  Viton is popular in many cases due to its chemical resistance.\n\nRubber gaskets (not o-rings) are usually die cut, either with an all steel tool or a rule die (think razor blades embedded in a sheet of plywood).


what is the best way to start up a new woman owned business in charleston south carolina?

How do I know if a man is the right one for me to marry?

You ask yourself if this person has values, beliefs, and goals that are in line with yours? You see if financial goals are in line with yours and that his financial situation is in order. Can he support a family? Do you want this man to be the father of you future/current children? Does he want children? Does he have any behaviors that you don't want to live or put up with? Can you deal with his family? Does he treat you like the most important woman in the world? Is he overall a nice man? Does he make you want to be a better person? Does he make you happy? Is he happy about you? Does he want to be married?


Need ideas for an 8th grade science fair project.?

The best project will be one that has some interest to the 8th grader. So my granddaughter likes animals. But my youngest boy likes photography. So a pinhole camera would bore my granddaughter but would have caught the interest of my son.\n\nThat being said... Here's an easy one. Go to a store and find some cheap analog clocks (clocks with hands) that run on a single AA battery. Then go to Radio Shack and get some battery holders and some "aligator clip leads" -- short wires with clips on either side. And get a bunch of different brand batteries of different sizes (if you are trying to get by simply, use only AA batteries and then you just need the clocks and the batteries).\n\nTake off the battery covers and hook up the battery holders to the clocks with the clipleads (unless you are only using AA batteries). Then put batteries in and see how long it takes for the clocks to run down. This may take a long time. If you are short on time, try this. Get a flashlight bulb at radio shack and put it across the battery with the clock. So this way the battery is running the clock and the flashlight bulb at the same time. Note the time on the the clock and check it every day to see when the clock stops. You can graph the results easily.\n\nQuestions (form a hypothesis and answer one or more of these):\nWhat lasts longer, a AA, a C, or a D battery?\nWhat brand of battery lasts longer?\nWhat lasts longer, a standard carbon-zinc battery or an alkaline battery? What is the cost difference per unit? Per run time?\n\nA little research on the internet about how batteries are built, and the different technologies (carbon-zinc, alkaline, nicad, NiMh, lithium, lead-acid) and you have a great project.


All you football (American)fans,What are the Redskins chances of going to the big dance next year?

If by the, "big dance" you mean the playoffs, then yes definitely. As a matter of fact, I picked them to represent the NFC in next year's Super Bowl. They have talent at each major position including QB, RB, WR, and they also have a stingy defense.

How do i keep a good realtionship in tact?

Either you like to argue or you have some issues between you that affect how you communicate to each other in a positive way.  If you really love her then talk to her about the effect the arguing is having on you and your relationship with her.  Long term relationships are not easy and I say that from experience...but they also can be the blessing of your lifetime too.


how do you lose lots of wieght in like 4 days?

You don't. You already weigh on the light side, and 100 pounds will not be good for your health. I tried it once and I looked like a scarecrow. But even if you ate nothing, you will not lose 15 pounds in 4 days without gaining it all right back in a day or two. It sounds as if you are bulimic (you eat and then throw up) or anorexic (you refuse to eat because you think you're too fat). Either way, this is an emotional problem and you should look into getting help. Some people have had permanent heart problems from dieting to excess. Look up Karen Carpenter's name online and you'll see what I mean.

The typical worker honeybee has five eyes. \n\nIt has two compund eyes. Each eye is made up of thousands of light-sensitive cells which help the bee understand color, light, and directional information from the sun's ultraviolet(UV) rays.\n\nIt also has three simple eyes that are arranged in the shape of a triangle on the head.These simple eyes called ocelli mostly help the bee determine the amount of light present in the environment.

Since like 99.9% of Italy is Roman Catholic they go to mass(church) Easter Morning. Plus they start on Palm Sunday which is actually a week before easter, or wait, I think it started Ash Wednesday they're supposed to fast for 40 days before Easter, but most just give up something they like to eat alot, like say veal or pasta or wine etc. Anyways on Easter Sunday there is a big meal served with red wine, and most gather with family and the women all wear black, as a sign of mourning for the death of Jesus. Not really a celebration though.

How would you react to a friend if you found out that he has Tourettes Syndrome?

Research this condition so you are aware of what your friend is going through.  I am in school to become an intervention specialist (special ed teacher) and this condition can be somewhat difficult to understand if you do not research it.  Definitely still be friends with this person, as there are many medications to help ease the symptoms with this condition.  If you are uncomfortable talk to your friend and they may be able to answer any questions you have.  Here are some websites to help you understand more about this:\n\nhttp://members.tripod.com/~tourette13/\n\nhttp://www.tourette-syndrome.com/\n\nhttp://kidshealth.org/kid/health_problems/brain/k_tourette_p3.html\n\nHere is some information from kidshealth.org about being friens with someone who has this condition:\n\nHow Should I Act Around Someone With Tourette Syndrome?\nKids who have Tourette syndrome want to be treated like everybody else. They can do regular stuff, just like other kids. In fact, at least two kids with Tourette grew up to become sports stars. Soccer player Tim Howard plays for Manchester United and was a member of the United States Olympic team. \n\nLikewise, former major league baseball player Jim Eisenreich struggled with Tourette syndrome during his career. But he stayed in the game, saying he wanted to be a role model for kids. Here's how he put it once in an interview with Baseball Weekly: "My calling in life was not to be a superstar ballplayer. I have another job to do: to be a quality player, help my team win, and show kids who have Tourette what they can accomplish."

why the mass of an electron is not added to the atomic mass of an atom?

The mass of protons and neutrons are nearly identical, the mass of an electron is about 1/1840th the mass of a proton, thus it is negligible, so you can't really tell its there.


what do they put on the backof glass to make them mirrors?

Early mirrors were usually a sheet of polished metal, often silver or copper, for example the Aranmula kannadi.\n\nMost modern mirrors consist of a thin layer of aluminium deposited on a sheet of glass. They are back silvered, where the reflecting surface is viewed through the glass sheet; this makes the mirror durable, but lowers the image quality of the mirror due to extraneous reflections from the front surface of the glass. This type of mirror reflects about 80% of the incident light. The "back side" of the mirror is often painted black to completely seal the metal from corrosion.\n\nSilvering is the chemical process of coating glass with a reflective substance, originally silver, in order to create a mirror. Today, powdered aluminum or other compounds are more often used for this purpose, although the process maintains the name "silvering

Dell is pretty good overall, but not the best.  For general use, you can pick Dell, HP, Toshiba, Acer ... etc.  Recently, I bought a Acer 8200 for school and for general programming stuff, and a Sony SZ-120 for business and they're both are very good computers.  As to the 6400, the 6000 has received great reviews, and 6400 is so new that not too many reviews are out yet, so why don't you wait a bit longer.  What is your major?  Most laptops last about 2 to 3 years, and a bit less on the battery.  Good luck!

I have an emachine double layer burner and I am not even sure what that means, please help?

Dual Layer recording allows DVD-R and DVD+R discs to store significantly more data, up to 8.5 Gigabytes per side, compared to 4.7 Gigabytes for single-layer discs. DVD-R DL was developed for the DVD Forum by Pioneer Corporation, DVD+R DL was developed for the DVD+RW Alliance by Philips.\n\nDVD recordable discs supporting this technology are backward compatible with most existing DVD players and DVD-ROM drives. Many current DVD recorders support dual-layer technology, and the price point is comparable to that of single-layer drives, though the blank media remains significantly more expensive. Currently the technology has severe problems with compatibility in DVD players. Dual Layer Drives will work with Regular DVD-R drives.

what causes echoes?Why do we hear sound that accompanies lightning strike later than we c the flash of light?

1) Echoes are caused because the sound bounces off the surrounding landscape, just like ripples in a pond reflect back from the edge and start going back in the other direction.\n2) Sound comes later than the lightning because sound goes about 700 mph and light goes about 990,000 times faster than that.  So if the lightning is 1 mile away, the light gets to you in a fraction of a second and the thunder arrives after 5 seconds.

why organization's  need promotion policy?

Organizations need promotion policies to provide incentives to employees to work hard in hopes that they can rise through the ranks. If they don't have such a policy and instead hire management from the outside, it can create bitterness among long-time employees who have worked hard. This has happened recently at my company--rather than take a chance on giving a salesman a promotion to assistant manager, they hired someone from another city to come in. It's worked out so far, but not without some hurt egos!


My site uses login pages as a method of accountability.\nIf you login to a site, a record is made as to where you logged in from. This way, if you happen to post any type of content that is specifically prohibited by the sites rules, you could be held accountable for it.\n\nAnother reason is for sites such as this By requiring you to login, you are basically saying 'this is who i am'...and the site can give you an identity. Granted this could be done with an IP address, HOWEVER, with the advent of home networking, wi-fi networks, and people accessing online content at schools and offices, another method needs to be put into place...and the login page would be it.

hi how I can measure egg albumen width?I must separate it from yolk or not?

hmmm... depends on what is the width referring here. egg is an oblate spheroid and you cannot measure its actual width. however you can do some measurements by:\n\nlaying a boiled egg on a table and using a ruler. \n\nuse a thread and a ruler to know its circumference at any section.\n\ncut it remove the yolk and then you may measure its thickness using vernier callipers....

my boyfriend is unable to pay student loans, his co-signer passed away.  Who will they go after to get the mon

Student loans are tricky, they are the kinda debt that really can never go away. They cannot be included in bankruptcys, and are run partially by the government. My suggestion is to call the student loan office and see if he can activate his forbearance. The forbearance will get rid of his current balance and charge him only intrest until the forbearance runs out. its like starting over. They will offer differing terms of forbearance (Mine is 16 months maximum for the life of my loan.) That is the best bet. If that is not an option he needs to get somthing worked out. If his co-signer haad any estate or any inheritance they can legally seize it for the loan. As for him, they can sue him for it. They can levy against his tax returns and garnish his wages. In the long term they can prevent him from being able to own a house, or get any sort of loan what so ever. He needs to call them and get the account straitend out.\n-good luck if you have any questions email me

If humans are one of the 'smartest', then why are are offspring so slow to develope compared to other species?

Humans are designed to evolve; spiritualy, mentaly, and physicaly. Evolution takes place every generation and we are growing at a rapid rate.\nHere's an annalogy, a different type of being see's an infant human, and an infant hippo next to each other. The hippo can walk and defend itself right after birth, where as the infant human can do nothing but sit, cry, and roll around. It's obvious which would be "smarter" in the current state. Looking outside the "box of time" the human will grow to be smarted than a hippo in many ways when it reaches maturity because it evolves with time... hope i could help you feel better about everything, i feel like you've had a hard time lately... things will get better, just remember that.


Would you feel offended if your significant other was watching pornographic videos behind your back?

All men watch porn and all men m.a.s.t.u.r.b.a.t.e and all men do both at the same time if they have the chance, and this has nothing to do with loyalty or fidelity to you. This will be true for every boyfriend you ever have.  So the question for you is, do you want to accept this fact or not.  If you are accepting of it, that's one more thing that will make you special to your boyfriend.  If you are not, and your bf feels he has to conceal this part of himself from you, then you are inviting the seeds of dishonesty into the relationship and inhibiting closeness between the two of you, if only in a small way.  That's what's at stake here.\n\nHow about watching some porn together with him?  That would certainly demonstrate acceptance on your part.  If that sounds too uncomfortable or scary, then watch some porn by yourself first.  At the very least, it will get you over the shock and embarassment stage of looking at porn.  \n\nWatching porn and maybe fantasizing about different things is not the same as doing them, and you shouldn't feel bad about having "shocking" thoughts cross your mind.


What was your funniest home video? Everyone has at least one of them.. do tell....?

We call it auto-lick because he only does it if you touch your nose to his.

My psa has risin from 0 to 6.2 in 5 yrs after having radical surgery. What symptoms will I see?

I am assuming you had a Radical Prostatectomy for prostate cancer.  A rise in PSA after this operation can be due to a few things.  Cancer recurrence is the typical worry.  An elevation in PSA greatly preceeds symptoms though.  Depending on the rate on increase, your age, the specifics of your cancer's pathology (Gleason score, TNM stage at surgery) - the prognosis and course possiblities vary quite a lot.\n\nDepending on these specifics, your doctor ought to have a plan in mind as to follow up, other testing etc.  To get a plan in action, talk with your doctor - it s the only way you can get a specific answer.\n\nRecurrent prostate cancer in post radical prostatectomy patient's can have symptoms locally (at the prostate bed) that may interfere with urination, or distant issues - most commonly disease in the bones.  Again - elevations in PSA preceed symptoms and definable disease by years most of the time.


what does it meentosay that yellowstonesisa hotspot,explainhowthismakesyellowstone diff.from mountsaint helens

Yellowstone volcanics are a localized feature that has shot through the overlying crust.  This is determined largely through geochemestry and heatflow studies.  The Hawiaan Islands are formed as a result of a hotspot.  You can see that the overlying plate has been moving with respect to the hotspot because the islands formed one at a tine in a line, showing plate direction.\n\nMt St. Helens is the result of a process called subduction.  The oceanic Pacific plate is being shoved underneath the North American plate.  As that plate is pushed deeper and deeper, heat and pressure create a partial melt that can rise to the surface and create volcanoes.  Look at the Aleutian chain, those are also subduction volcanoes, only there you see oceanic crust shoved under oceanic crust

How can I get a stress knot out of my shoulder on a daily basis without the expense of a professional massage?

Posture, Posture, Posture!!!  Are you sitting at a desk all day?  Working at a computer all day?  On the phone all day?  Make sure your work environment is set up ergonomically.  Make sure your computer monitor is at eye level, get a headset for your phone, make sure your chair has a lumber support, make sure your feet are flat on the floor or better yet get a wedge so they are at a slight incline, etc.  Most tight, sore, knotty muscles come from poor posture or un-ergonomic working conditions rather than stress.  See a chiropractor, he or she will be able to teach you how to correct your posture with simple exercises and will be able to give you specific ergonomic advice on your working conditions.


i need a chart that has spelled out numbers?

go to your local school supplies store (for teachers which you can find in the phonebook) and buy it there, they probably have things of that nature.


I have some video clips that were burn on CD disk (it use window media player).I try to burn it on dvd disk?

yes but you might have to do several conversions so i'll start at the beginning. you cannot burn dvd files unless they are in .ifo, .vob format.\n\nDivxToDvd is a nice program that takes .avi files and burns them directly to dvd compatible files for you. The easiest way is to make a vcd. Go to Nero and click the Cd tab and click make Video Cd and use the Nero Express interface and drag and drop video files and burn


y can't i be more attentive to her needs?

You just need to work on it. Every time you feel like complaining, think of one complaint she might have at that time. I am very attentive to my fiance's needs and he is not so attentive to mine all the time - I just work harder to be more attentive to his needs in hopes he will be more attentive to mine sometimes.

how do I find a rare disease that only 4 people have?

How do you know only four people have it?


!!!!!Can you plz stop answering so pathetically!!!!!!!!?

I don't understand your question!\n\nok, sorry.  No, I know what you mean.  Some people think Yahoo Answers is a forum for converting people to their religions.  And they clutter the answers space with their little spiels that really have nothing to do with the question asked.\n\nThe one that always gets me is when people answer simply, "I don't know."  How dumb!  If you don't know then why "answer"?!  Of course, I know the reason is 2 points.


What do you like to do the most?  Do it.  Sounds simple and understated?  Maybe, but you will find that the most successful people in the world are the ones that really like what they are doing and would do it even if they didn't get paid.  And guys, I am not talking about sex here, Of course, if you're really good at it.... LOL.  Find what you like to do, learn all you can about it, do it.  It may take awhile to build into something that pays "good money in life", and may be nothing but a hobbie at first, however, it will always be something that no one can take from you.  \n\nHave you that one thing in mind yet?  Go out there and gett'em tiger.

How can you tell if a woman used to be a man?

I would recommend checking to see if there's an adam's apple in the base of the throat, and the size of the hands and feet.  Some transexuals have very feminine features and their hands and feet are small, but more times than not their hands will be very masculine and they will have larger feet than a woman would at that height.  Body hair is another sign...Some transexuals are dilligent about body hair removal, and some are not.


what is the name of the fish that produces small electric shock when feels danger?

The electric eel (Electrophorus electricus) does not produce a _small_ electric shock, but a strong and dangerous one.\nHowever, there are several species of freshwater fish that are related to electric eels (they belong to the same order Gymnotiformes) that produce weaker electric pulses; these are the knifefishes (genera Gymnotus, Ramphichthys, Eigenmannia). \n\nIn addition, there are several fishes that can produce electric fields and eventually shocks: all true rays (genus Raja and others), torpedo rays (genera Torpedo, Discopyge, etc), the electric catfish (Malapterurus electricus), electric stargazers (genus Astroscopus), the elephantnoses (Mormyridae), etc.


What does the acronym "HCPCS" mean in medical billing?

Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System.\n\nInsurance carriers used standard numeric coding to streamline the claims process for medical billing.  There is a code for various treatments, tests and exams.  Depending on the state, each then has a certain fee that is associated with it that a carrier will pay for that.

What construction methods may have been used, or were used to build it? (regarding the sears tower)?

The Sears Tower is an example of the revolutionary bundled-tube structural design. Tube buildings gain most of their structural support from a rigid network of beams and columns in their outer walls. The rigid outer walls act like the walls of a hollow tube. The Sears Tower is actually a bundle of nine tubes, and is considered one of the most efficient structures designed to withstand wind. This is a great design for a skyscraper in Chicago, the "Windy City," where the average wind speed is 16 miles per hour. As the building climbs upward, the tubes begin to drop off, reducing the wind forces on the building. The Tower's heavy weight -- more than 440 million pounds -- is also supported by 114 piles sunk deep into the earth so that they stand firmly on hard, solid bedrock.


Adding a Meta Refresh will not remove that page from the index of most search engines meaning that they do indeed index the page until the refresh time is reached.\n\nIf you wish to make sure that the page you are adding the Meta Refresh tag to is no longer indexed, a 301 redirect would be your most efficient method.


This is the data transfer capacity of your switch per second, and usually translates to 1 gigabit of data a second for each port.  That's the optimum data rate, of course.  If you have clients attached to the switch that are 10 or 100 megabits, then they will go at that rate.


Taxe wise, would it be more benefitial for a clinic to hire a doctor as an employee or independent Contractor?

Tax wise it is better to go with an independent contractor. You do not have to pay their federal, state or local taxes you could pay them on a 1099 and they would be responsible for the taxes. Also you might get a discount on workers' compensation insurance since it is one less "employee" There are tax rules on who is considered an independent contractor like control of job and ownership of tools. Make sure you are compliant with those rules.


I've used it as a process in which a compound is dissolved in their recrystalization solvent (found in the Merck index) then filtered. The new filtered solution is allowed to cool and the compounds recrystallize creating more pure crystals. \nLook up types of organic purifications.

What do you think of FOX's hit series House MD ?

I would hope that all doctors would be this agressive in treating their patients...Unfortunately they are not all as nearly agressive as House...I am glad that there is another decent hospital type drama on television, seeing as ER has really been grasping at straws for good story lines for a couple of years now...The content of the show is catchy, attention getting, and sometimes even suspense filled...I am looking forward to many more seasons of this, so FOX KEEP IT COMING!!!!

Do you think you may have ever encountered an angel?

What an amazing event. I hope you treasure it for the rest of your life as a message of God's love for all his creatures.  I believe in angels, and I am convinced that all of us act as angels sometimes.  I know I have been blessed plenty of times by people whom I know, who have helped me in several ways. ALso, I have been touched by complete strangers who have actually saved my life in many ways.  God bless you


In the heated debate between Sean Hannity and Charles Barron, who did you agree with?

Sean Hannity all the way. Does Autum Ashante have a right to right and even read her poem? Absolutely ... just not in a public school. Many white students stood up when she asked the student body to repeat the "Black Pledge of Allegiance" and Ashante told the white students to "sit down" ... in my book, she was attempting to curtail the right to free speech of the white students. \n\nAnd if you need any further evidence that the girl's "poem" should be considered racist, Al Sharpton is backing her.


How do you get rid of back fat? SERIOUSLY!!?

Exercises:\n#1 best- Good Mornings. Stand up straight, feet shoulder width apart, hold light weight. Keep legs straight and bend over, raise back up and repeat.\n\n2- Back extensions. Position yourself on a Swiss Ball or roman workout chair. Bend over and then raise back up until body is parallel to floor.\n\nThese will strenghthen your back and develope the muscle. Even though your "thin", thats still fat so you need to do cardio and eat healthy.


Can severe acid reflux cause breathing difficulties after eating?

YES, there is a condition that doctors like to call psuedoasthma and it is from acid reflux. I have had problems for years with reflux and this last time that i was pregnant i had to use an inhaler. My baby has it too, he has had numerous hospitalizations from reflux that caused asthma like problems. \nsee a doctor they need to do a scope of your stomach and put u on some stronger meds like prevacid...

Explain why a magnesium atom is smaller than atoms of both sodium and calcium.?

A Magnesium atom has 1 extra electron than Sodium, but this extra electron is going into the same electron shell as Sodium's (the 3S orbital), so Magnesium isnt getting any larger.  In fact, because of Mg's extra 1 proton, it actualy gets smaller since the nucleus is pulling the electrons in closer.\n\nCalcium is the next element down in the column on the periodic table.  Following the trend, Calcium will be much larger than Mg since it has an entire 8 extra electrons in two additional orbitals.  The size of the atom is greatly determined by how many electrons and in how many orbitals there are away from the nucleus.


I need some information on the Krishna Raja Sagar Dam in India, its advantages etc.?

I have a gamblock program on the office computers so we can not play on line can this be bypassed and how can?

It would depend. Is the program installed on the hard drive of your PC or running from a central server?? If server - no chance. If PC do you have admin rights to access all parts of PC?? if yes then it can be removed, if not - no chance.\nvisit www.jockofhearts.com for more info, probably from a PC without GB running on it.


In the UK, you need good grades in your A levels (generally AAB) or highers (at least AAABB), you must have chemistry as one of them, plus one other science subject. You need to apply to university to study medicine, which will take 5 years, then when you graduate you try to get a job as a junior doctor in obstetrics and work your way up to consultant level from there. However, the vast majority of obstetricians in the UK are joint obstetricians and gynaecologists.\n\nMedical school is LONG and HARD.......but it's worth it if that's what you want to do. Get your head down and get good grades in your highers/A levels and good luck.


Why does a doctor advise a person with a cough to gargle?

Most lozenges have sugar which sooth but don't kill germs.\n\nQ: What exactly is the mechanism/physiology of relief that gargling with warm salt water has on a sore throat?\n\n \n\nA: This is an educated guess.\n\nSore throats are sore due to inflammation. Usually, the inflammation is due to a viral or bacterial infection (the common cold, and strep throat, are examples of each). However, sore throat may also be related to allergies or physical injury to the throat. In each case, an inflammatory response has been triggered. Pain, swelling and an itchy or irritated sensation are the common symptoms of this inflammatory response.\n\nThe medical term for swelling is edema. As part of the inflammatory response, there is an increase in the water content of the involved tissues. With respect to sore throat, a sense of fullness and difficulty swallowing are both related to edema of the tissue lining the throat (mucosa).\n\nWater tends to follow salt. Anyone who has ever salted a snail knows what happens to the snail. Here’s a less disgusting analogy: have you ever salted slices of raw eggplant? The salt draws moisture from the eggplant; after a few minutes, you can see beads of fluid on the surface of the eggplant.\n\nEveryone has a different recipe for a salt water gargle, but all recipes tend to be fairly salty. If the gargle has a higher salt concentration than your intrinsic salt concentration, it will tend to draw out some of the edema fluid from the mucosa of the throat. This will make SOME of your "sore throat" symptoms better. The relief is very real, but also tends to be short-lived, since the gargle has done nothing to remove the cause of the sore throat.\n\nIn some cases, gargling with salt water also has a cleansing action. If you are suffering from postnasal drainage due to a bacterial sinus infection or allergies, the mucus which drains from your nasal cavity is full of chemicals that tend to promote an inflammatory response. As this stuff drains down the back of your throat, it leaves a trail of inflamed tissues in its wake. Frequent gargling with salt water will help minimize this problem.\n\nAs with everything else in medicine, you can certainly overdo this one! Make the gargle salty enough, and you will dessicate the mucosa of the throat. This could lead to even greater irritation than what you started with!


None other than pete sampras. he ws the best of best player in history of tennis. highest number of grandslam singles winner... My vote is for pete sampras


Do you mean Rosemary Casals? She was a professional tennis player in the 60's and 70's. She was one of the commentators for the Billie Jean King - Bobby Riggs, Battle of the Sexes Match.


do you htink me and taylor will last forever?

Only if you find the Philopher's stone and live forever.\nThanks for two points.


It was Samuel Clemens.  Interestingly, Mark Twain was a nautical term used by riverboat captains on the Mississippi River meaning to find (or mark) the depth of the river.  (And for a man who writes about rafting down the Mississippi, that's appropriate.)

CALCULUS: I need to use substitution to evaluate the integral that follows:?

cot = o/a\ncsc = r/o\n\no = opposite side\na = adjacent side\nr = radius\n\ncalculate csc(2x) in terms of o and r.\nSubstitute o/a for cot(x) and substitue the value you determine for csc(2x) \nmultiply these, then convert to a trig function in terms of x.\n\nIf you know trig identities better than I do, you can reduce this expression using identities, without resorting to o, a, and r.  However, either route will work.

Can you get into a good college with a G.E.D?

From reading this question, I am assuming that you have not taken any college level courses yet.\n\nOne place that will admit you with a G.E.D. is a community college.  Regardless if you are a high school graduate with a horrible grade point average (GPA) and SAT scores, a community college welcomes them.\n\nCommunity colleges serve the community, and gives them a fair chance to get themselves ahead in life.  Plus, if you do well in a community college, you can transfer your two years worth of those courses to a 4-year university, where you will be declared a Junior.\n\nUniversities do not care that you have a GED when you transfer from a community college.  They care about your college course grades and your grade point average.\n\nGood luck!


Why logically is it that couples who are together for many years start looking alike??

LOL...sorry I was just wondering this the other day. I have no idea but I have noticed that. It looks like they could be brother and sister. I guess they just spent all that time together and kinda take in the others looks, ex: hair, expressions, personalities, weight-gain or loss, facial characteristics. Take my brother for example, him and my step dad look exactly alike...curly hair (looks like a afro sometimes...they are white though that's the funny part!), weight gain (both look like twins when you see them from behind, love handles and all ha ha), it's funny how it happens, kinda scary too!


How does an oxygen concentrator change just plain air into pure oxygen ?

Air is composed of various gases in our atmosphere.\nNitrogen N2  78.084 % \n \nOxygen O2 20.9476 % \n \nArgon Ar 0.934 % \n \nCarbon Dioxide CO2 0.0314 % \n \nNeon Ne 0.001818 % \n \nMethane CH4 0.0002 % \n \nHelium He 0.000524 % \n \nKrypton Kr 0.000114 % \n \nHydrogen H2 0.00005 % \n \nXenon Xe 0.0000087 % \n\nThe most common and cheapest way to extract oxygen is to pass air through something that will take out everything BUT the oxygen. Thankfully we have a material called zeolite that does just that. When air is passed through the zeolite the nitrogen and other gases are bound to the zeolite and lets the oxygen pass through. This is then pushed into a storage tank. The zeolite is then placed in a vaccum to remove the nitrogen and other gases and then more oxygen comes in. You can generate oxygen also from the electroylsis of water, but thats not as common.


Can anyone describe their experience with immune globulin shots given to prevent Hepatitis A after exposure?

Any shot that needs to be given in a large dose needs to go in the back side. this prevents it from being AS painful and alows it to be distributed evenly and not knot up. The hep A immuno globulin shot does sting during and can feel kind of like a bruise the next day, a little sore, and you may feel a little nauseated, some dry toast or crackers can help with that. But, doesn't that sound alot better than getting hep A?


How do I determine what christian faith/church is right for me?

Find a church that teaches from the Bible and where you feel most comfortable. You will probably have to visit several different churches to find the right one. Pray to God for the Holy Spirit to lead you to where you are supposed to be.

I believe Norman did.I wrote to him on his website once and asked what his favorite guitar was..he replied "..it was,and is,the Fender Telecaster".In the beginning of the promo film,it appears he's playing the fuzzed out opening notes.


Is it morally wrong to do something with the intention of geting something back?

It depends, I think. What are you expecting to get back? Are you expecting monetary reward? Altruism is usually not pure. We feel good when we do something for others. Some people do stuff because they want to go to heaven, others fear negative karma. So we all expect *something* when we do something for someone. Hope I understood the question and that my answer helps.


ONG!!!!!!!!!!!!! I will go and answer what question?\nI think u blew it - can u tell?!!!!


Do you know any men that feel loved when their mate gets jealous?

Jealous is a cute thing at first then it gets old real fast. It will destroy a good relationship, the jealous person should seek help. Its an insecurity that needs to be addressed. In short it sucks.


How is Splenda not bad for you if it is treated with chlorine?

Splenda is an artificial sweetner made from sucralose.\nIt was discovered about 20 years ago and as a product has had about 100 different Pk or safety studies conducted on it.\n\nThe process to manufacture Sucralose does take sucrose, the normal sugar we consume and bind it with a chlorine atom. This makes a chemically stable bond that is only broken apart under some very specific parameters, none of which are normally encountered in everyday use.\n\nTo make it appear as a replacement for sugar, Sucralose is bulked up with Maltodextrin a carbohydrate derived from corn, giving it some calories but making it measure and act more like sugar. This combination is called Splenda Granular.\n\nUsing lab animals, many studies concerning cancer, toxicity, kidney and liver damage have been done. Surprisingly, rats do make excellent models for humans for this type of research, and opinions about lab animal research aside, the chemicals involved in this product have been well researched.\n\nSucrose is treated in a specialized process and some molecules are moved as a chlorine is substituted. In gheneral, we consume a lot of chlorise., Sodium Chloride is one atom of sodium and one atom of chloride bound to make table salt. All srts of presevatives and processes utilize chloride in this fashion.  A small percentage of os sucralose does  break down into small amounts of 1,6-dichlorofructose, a chemical that has not been adequately tested in humans.\n\nIn general, the product should be deemed safe in most people. There are some documented, and MANY UNDOCUMENTED reports of health issues among people. The documented are from peopel with current throid or kidney problems having those problems get worse. The undocumented problems blame anything from eyesight loss, to arthtitis on artificial sweetners. As a scientist, I have to question any report that is not duplicated or one that you cannot rule out other unrelated problems. \n\nI think common sense should apply here. In normal consumption doses this product will behave as expected in nearly all people. Meaning, don't consume 40 cans of Diet cola and eat 20 diet twinkies, etc. Normal consumption will be fine over a lifetime.\n\ni could do a study over 25 yeras that shows the adverse effects of sugar, versus aspartame and sucralose. Bottom line is that all will have some impact. One can cause diabetes and obesity. The others may cause enlarged kidneys or livers (whch goes away if you stop use). In terms of public health and lifestyle, which threats are worse? Eating poorly, consuming fast food and not exercising are far worse than sonsuming diet drinks and foods. \n\nThese products can help eliminate the guilt of empty calories, but you should not reley on them for weightloss without proper diet and exercise.\n\nAs for safety, they are as safe as any processed food product is.  Look at a label of cereal, or cheese slices, or a frozen meal. They all contain some complex molecules that in some are probably very reactive, but in most are just fine.

how empolyee turnover affect the hotel performance and guest satisfaction?

guests like the employees with long records which means the hotel is a good emplyer in keeping employees satisfied. New employees are not fully used to their work environment. So it does make a big difference.

Is there a type of job that I could obtain that dealt with my love for music?

How about:\n\nMusician, if 'love' is accompanied by musical talent.  Or how about song writer, if you are lyrically inclined, or singer, if you have a good voice.  If you are technically inclined, there are music studio technicians who operate the equipment for recording.  If you are just mean and greedy, probably Music Industry Executive is a good choice :).


When we draw a circle with a compass, we keep the angle between the two legs constant.\n\nA  ray from the  top most point on the rainbow  to our eye makes an angle to the horizotal direction. Theory says this angle is a constant.\n\nImagine the ray as one leg of long compass and the horizontal direction as another leg which points the center.Keeping the angle constant when the compass is rotated an arc is formed.   \n\n Mathematically we say that the locus of all such points is an arc of a circle.\n\nIf water particle were present on all points on the arc we see a continuous arc of a rain bow.\n\nDuring cloudy  night we can see a full circle of rainbow \naround moon with moon as center.


Salary for someone with a B.A. in Psychology or B.S. In Social Work?

My career counselor recommended the website, salary.com, for job descriptions and salaries (approx estimates).\n\nFor a BSW the median salary in the US is $40,901\n(this can vary depending on your skills and location)\n\nYou'll probably do better pursuing a PHD in Psychology, very few stop at just a Bachelors. As a matter of fact, none of my college friends or military friends (there are mental health facilities at every base) stopped at a BA.\n\nAnyway, with an advanced Psychology degree, the median salary for a psych in the US is $73,365.


What are the best reasonably priced running shoes?

More and more superstores/grocery stores [Wal*Mart...depending where you live - Meijers] are starting to sell namebrand clothing and shoe brands. You could try that. Or there's always eBay. I know that they have online stores connected to eBay that sell running shoes wholesale - brand new for really cheap. Those are a few options. :) Good luck!


Will there be a sequel to The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants?

Well, there are three books (and yes, THOSE are done).  The end of the movie was changed from the end of the first book (as well as a few key plot points, such as Lena's family not liking Kostos.  In the book, her family spends the whole summer trying to hook her up w/ Kostos) in a way that it seems unlikely to make a sequel.\n\nBut you never know.  I doubt that all of those good actresses would sign on for another film, though.
