Liquid motion lamps (which most people know as "lava lamps") have been around for decades. The theory behind a liquid motion lamp goes something like this:\n\nIn the lamp you have two liquids which are:\n\n    * Very close in density\n    * Insoluble in one another \n\nOil and water are insoluble in one another (that's where the expression "oil and water don't mix" comes from), but oil and water have very different densities (a volume of water weighs a lot more than the same volume of oil). They won't work, so you search to find two liquids that are very close in density and are insoluble. This site can help you in that search.\n\nNow you apply heat to the bottom of the mixture. In a liquid motion lamp, the heat usually comes from a light bulb. The heavier liquid absorbs the heat, and as it heats up, it expands. As it expands it becomes less dense. Because the liquids have very similar densities, the formerly heavier liquid is suddenly lighter than the other liquid, so it rises. As it rises, it cools, making it denser and therefore heavier, so it sinks.\n\nThis all happens in slow motion because heat absorption and dissipation are fairly slow processes, and the density changes we are discussing here are very slight.\n\nHow stuff works has a far longer explanation, see link.

what is the best outfit to wear to school on a friday?


The scientific name for the twinkling of stars is stellar scintillation (or astronomical scintillation). Stars twinkle when we see them from the Earth's surface because we are viewing them through thick layers of turbulent (moving) air in the Earth's atmosphere. \n\nStars (except for the Sun) appear as tiny dots in the sky; as their light travels through the many layers of the Earth's atmosphere, the light of the star is bent (refracted) many times and in random directions (light is bent when it hits a change in density - like a pocket of cold air or hot air). This random refraction results in the star winking out (it looks as though the star moves a bit, and our eye interprets this as twinkling). \n\nStars closer to the horizon appear to twinkle more than stars that are overhead - this is because the light of stars near the horizon has to travel through more air than the light of stars overhead and so is subject to more refraction. Also, planets do not usually twinkle, because they are so close to us; they appear big enough that the twinkling is not noticeable (except when the air is extremely turbulent). \n\nStars would not appear to twinkle if we viewed them from outer space (or from a planet/moon that didn't have an atmosphere).


what are the signs to see to know that your preagnet?

Signs and symptoms can vary person to person, but they can be missed period, implantation bleeding, swollen, tender breasts, fatigue, tiredness, nausea, morning sickness, backache, headache, frequent urination, darkening of areolas, and food cravings. It is best to test two weeks after a missed period, as this is the most accurate.  Also a blood test is more accurate than a home urine test.


Is it a state law to have an aid on the school bus with special needs students?

that depends on the state. i am a school bus driver in the state of california. i drive special needs busses on a regular basis. we do not have an aid on all of our special needs routes, only on ones where we have a problem child, or one who could not otherwise ride the bus with out a one on one aid.


is there any possible way to get a better wireless signal for my internal wireless card?

Yes !    --   The card you have installed matters the most and I'm hoping it has an external antenna jack.  (is there a short, stubby, rubber, doo-hicky sticking out of the back of your pc.  If so that's it--      Visit this websitehttp://www.turnpoint.net/wireless/cantennahowto.html and learn about a home-built solution to your question.  I made one and got a 9db gain (It triple the signal).   The 'Cantenna' works !! \n\nIf you don't have an antenna jack visible you can find info on how to disassemble the wireless card and how to modify it (getting techie extreme here..but hey, if it don't work now it ain't gonna hurt trying to rig it !!)See http://www.stanford.edu/group/denny/wireless.htm for insight to reverse engineering your card--

Can i install a intercooler on my car w/o the turbo? intake hose on 1 tube & the air filter side of intercoole

You can install anything you want.  The real question should be:  Will intercooling help performance of a non-turbo car.  The reason for the intercooler is to decrease the temperature of the forced air generated by the turbo.  Consider the fact that it is compressed air generated by hot exhaust gases which turn the vane in the turbo.  By cooling the air generated by the turbo, you can increase the power capability.  You can research air/air intercoolers and even water/ice/air intercoolers on yahoo search.\n\nTo answer your question, yes you could install one but you would likely see no performance gain and maybe even a drop.  This is due to the additional volume added to the intake tract by the piping and intercooler itself.  Your best bet is a cold air intake which you can buy from most any aftermarket parts place.


First, lotions, oils, body soaps, Vaseline, etc, have admonitions that they are "For External Use Only" on a lot of them and you should take the word "external" literally. \n\nIn addition most may cause irritation to mucous membranes. \n\nIn addition, many lubricants are not made to be ingested and may be harmful if swallowed, so try to avoid getting lubricants in your mouth (unless of course you are using a food item such as whipped cream as a lubricant). And there is no telling what kind of sex you all may be doing...so skip the body soap please.

Why would a newborn child get johndus?Why yellow skin?Whats the cure?

Many children are born with JAUNDICE.  When the baby was in the womb, the mother's liver took care of the excess pigment (called bilirubin) in the blood that causes jaundice. It takes a while for the baby's liver to be able to process and eliminate it. \n\nMild cases can be treated by exposing baby briefly to sunlight and making sure baby is getting plenty of fluids (breastmilk is best).  More severe cases can be treated by your pediatrician using special light therapy.

How do you create HD 3D video games for the PS3 or XBox 360?

What you need is the SDK (Software Development Kit ) for the particular console that you are developing for. Unfortunally these kits usually cost $10+ and even more unfortunally you can't get them. Most Console license holders (like Microsoft or Sony) will only lease a kit to you if you a big company with an active title in development and a published deal ready. It is almost impossible to get a kit if you are a single developer.\n\nI suggest making a PC game with DirectX, the directX SDK is free. It is a good place to get started and Microsoft's Xbox uses a very similar almost identical interface. So if you can swing a publisher deal and convince Microsoft to let use use a SDK you won't have much trouble getting your game to work on the XBox.\n\nWhen you game is ready License holder will put your game through a set of rigorious tests to see if it is stable and conforms to all the rules of the particular system, if that all works out they will allow you to release the game.\n\nAlmost every professional game with VERY few exceptions are written in C++.\n\nCompared to all this making the game work on a HD Televison is trival.

Why is it traditional to serve a ham on Easter when Jesus was a Jew?

Well, IIRC, Jesus did throw out the kosher laws completely.\n\nHowever, many of our Easter traditions come from European pagan traditions, rather than Jewish practices. Even the name Easter comes from the germanic goddess Oestre.  (aka Astara, Ishtar or Isis)  \n\nAs for ham, Demeter, the goddess of spring is connected to pigs and pig sacrifices were common in her worship.  Practically speaking, pigs have the shortest gestation period of the large dosmeticated animals, which means you're more likely to have a half-grown pig ready for cooking when the time comes.

How/What does Y2K stand for, and does it have anything to do with the war in Iraq?

The year 2000 problem (also known as the Y2K problem and the millennium bug) was a flaw in computer program design that caused some date-related processing to operate incorrectly for dates and times on and after January 1, 2000. It turned into a major fear that critical industries (electricity, financial, etc.) and government functions would stop working at 12:00 AM, January 1, 2000, and at other critical dates which were billed as "event horizons". This fear was fueled by huge amounts of press coverage and speculation, as well as copious official corporate and government reports. All over the world companies and organizations checked and upgraded their computer systems. The preparation for Y2K had a significant effect on the computer industry.

What are the different methods for analysing dissolved oxygen ?

You need to be a little more specific. Would that be in water quality, oxygen in blood, or soil? To measure water quality they just use dissolved oxygen meter, which exploits the electrochemical properties of the water. Or you could do a Winkler titration.


In information technology, hardware is the physical aspect of computers, telecommunications, and other devices. The term arose as a way to distinguish the "box" and the electronic circuitry and components of a computer from the program you put in it to make it do things. The program came to be known as the software. \nHardware implies permanence and invariability. Software or programming can easily be varied. You can put an entirely new program in the hardware and make it create an entirely new experience for the user. You can, however, change the modular configurations that most computers come with by adding new adapters or cards that extend the computer's capabilities. \n\nLike software, hardware is a collective term. Hardware includes not only the computer proper but also the cables, connectors, power supply units, and peripheral devices such as the keyboard, mouse, audio speakers, and printers. \n\nHardware is sometimes used as a term collectively describing the physical aspects of telephony and telecommunications network infrastructure.


what is the difference between velocity and speed?

Velocity is a vector - this means that it has a direction. Speed is a scalar, i.e. just a number.\n\nTo illustrate, let's say I'm travelling in a spaceship to the moon. My speed is 50,000 mph. My velocity is 50,000 mph towards the moon.\n\nIf there is no direction given, it's not a velocity.


Substitution Method\nSolve this system of equations:\n3y - 2x = 11\ny + 2x = 9\n \n\n1.  Solve one of the equations for either "x =" or "y =".\nThis example solves the second equation for "y ="\n \n\n3y - 2x = 11\ny = 9 - 2x\n \n\n2.  Replace the "y" value in the first equation by what "y" now equals.  Grab the "y" value and plug it into the other equation. \n\n \n\n3(9 - 2x) - 2x = 11\n \n3.  Solve this new equation for "x".\n \n\n(27 - 6x) - 2x = 11\n27 - 6x - 2x = 11\n27 - 8x = 11\n-8x = -16\nx = 2\n4.  Place this new "x" value into either of the ORIGINAL equations in order to solve for "y".  Pick the easier one to work with!  \n\n \n \n\ny = 9 - 2(2)\ny = 9 - 4\ny = 5\n \n\n5.  Check:  substitute x = 2 and y = 5 into BOTH ORIGINAL equations.  If these answers are correct, BOTH equations will be TRUE!\n   \n\n3y - 2x = 11\n3(5) - 2(2) = 11\n15 - 4 = 11\n11 = 11\n\ny + 2x = 9\n5 + 2(2) = 9\n5 + 4 = 9\n9 = 9 \n\nElimination:\n x - 2y = 14\nx + 3y = 9\n \n\na.  First, be sure that the variables are "lined up" under one another.  In this problem, they are already "lined up".\n \n\nx - 2y = 14\nx + 3y = 9\n \nb.  Decide which variable ("x" or "y") will be easier to eliminate.  In order to eliminate a variable, the numbers in front of them (the coefficients) must be the same or negatives of one another.  Looks like "x" is the easier variable to eliminate in this problem.\n  \n\nx - 2y = 14\nx + 3y = 9\n \n\nc.  Now, subtract to eliminate the "x" variable.  \n(Remember:  when you subtract signed numbers, you change the signs and follow the rules for adding signed numbers.)\n \n x - 2y = 14\n-x - 3y = - 9    \n\n    - 5y = 5  \nd.  Solve this simple equation.   \n\n-5y = 5\n   y = -1\n \n\ne.  Plug "y = -1" into either of the ORIGINAL equations to get the value for "x".\n   \n\nx - 2y = 14\nx - 2(-1) = 14\nx + 2 = 14\nx = 12\n \n\nf.  Check:  substitute x = 12 and y = -1 into BOTH ORIGINAL equations.  If these answers are correct, BOTH equations will be TRUE!\n   \n\nx - 2y = 14\n12 - 2(-1) = 14\n12 + 2 = 14\n14 = 14  \n\nx + 3y = 9\n12 + 3(-1) = 9\n12 - 3 = 9\n9 = 9

Why did Anakin Skywalker turned to the Dark Side in Episode III?

Because otherwise the history wouldn't match up for 4-6?  Sorry, cynical response.  ;)  In any case...He changed to the dark side because he had a desire for power, and an obsession with keeping Padme safe (while, in actuality, being the cause with her downfall.)


How bad do injuries get in top level rugby?

Well, I'll start with a personal anecdote.  First game I played in college I had my head stepped on by my own damned scrumhalf, cleats and all, and was knocked out on the field.  I have also personally seen people have their faces cut open by elbows in a ruck, usually right above the eye.  Head wounds bleed quite a bit.  Another injury I have witnessed was from one of the girl ruggers here, who had her ear nearly torn off and then stitched back on. I'm not even bothering to mention the number of broken limbs, sprains, and their ilk. Also, for some statistics on Rugby injuries in Australia, check the link in the source.  \n\nNeedless to say, Rugby is a much more violent sport than Football, and it makes it just that much more fun to play.\n\nEdit:  Forgot to mention spearing, in which during a tackle a player is lifted by his legs and smashed head first into the ground.  It is illegal, but it happens.\n\nEdit:  Well, back in the late 19th century, England alone counted 71 rugby related deaths in three seasons.  I haven't been able to find a recent count, although I know that deaths do occur.  I didn't bother mentioning broken/twisted limbs because they are so common. You know, legs broken the wrong way with the bone sticking out, that sort of thing. I also know from playing that football players can't take a hit to save their lives.  They are too comfortable with all that padding.  You take it away and they break something or have something broken within two or three games.\n\nEdit:  I'm going to keep finding stuff to convince you how awesome the game is!  Buck Shelford had his sack cut open during a game by a boot spike, which left his testicle hanging out.  Doctors stitched him back up and he played the rest of the game.  Link is in the sources.

How to design a website for more than ONE RESOLUTION?

unfortunately there is no solution for this problem.\n\nThe browsers do their best for accommodating different resolution by giving scroll bars ( thats least we can expect from them or any windows/GUI product manufacturers ).\n\nIt all depends on how the user set up resolution on his local computer. We cannot detect it, as with today's technology neither write dynamic code for different resolution in HTML. But in Java applets we can write applet code just in case the user resized his browser window. This also is not possible in HTML. So best way to proceed is to test the code in advance to the anticipated users settings of computer like the resolution, browser type, screen size, dynamic code generating large number of GUI items in HTML....\n\nWe can run and see how it looks.\n\nMore over you don't even want to do this thing. Cz every person chooses his size of monitor and resolution. We code what is possible from our side and its users who have to decide what they want to see and how they want to see. They may have a browser that might not even enable Java Applets.

Though electron affinity of fluorine is greater than flourine, Flourine acts as a better oxidising agent.Why?

I am assuming you are talking about fluorine and chlorine. But electron affinity deals only with the atoms ability to accept an electron. Oxidation deals with interactions between atoms. Fluorine being smaller has more atoms that are close to the atom being oxidized and thus greater charge density around the atom it's oxidizing. Electron affinity deals only with electrons and no atoms thus electron repulsion of the smaller fluorine orbitals cause a decrease in electron affinity when compared to the larger atom of chlorine. \n\nI am not sure this is correct but it is all I could think of. Good luck.

B cells and T cells ...  well...\nAcquired immunity involves diverse but specific responses to invaders involving lymphocytes.  The cells involved in acquired immunity are specialized and possess memory (once they encounter and destroy the invader, they remember it and can destroy it quicker in the future).  The two types of acquired immunity based on the type of lymphocyte involved are humoral immunity and cellular immunity.  Humoral immunity involves B Cells and cellular immunity involves T Cells.\nBone Marrow derived B Cells secrete antibodies that destroy antigens.  Antigens are pathogens that elicit B cell activation.  They are slower to respond than T cells and are involved in immunization.  Memory B cells stay after an infection is contained to recognize the pathogen if it invades again.\nThymus derived T Cells respond quickly to pathogens by attacking them directly.  These cells puncture a hole in the pathogens cell membrane, so it can fill with tissue fluid, bursting in the process.  Helper T cells, cytotoxic T cells, and memory T cells are types of T cells.  Helper T cells assit both T cells and B cells fight an infection by secreting hormones to stimulate them.  Cytotoxic T cells kill body cell infected by pathogens.  Memory T cells, like memory B cells, stay after the infection is contained to recognize the pathogen if it invades again.


do you think that evolution should be taught in school if it is supposed to be freedom of religion?

This question doesn't make any sense.\n\nFreedom of religion has nothing to do with what we teach in schools in a science class.  Freedom of religion applies to people's personal beliefs, and their ability to worship according to those beliefs.\n\nThis has nothing to do with the subject matter taught in physics or math or biology classes.\n\nEvolution is taught in biology classes because it is the best description of how life changes, and it has 150 years worth of research to back it up.\n\nspiderlover128's claim that "there is little to no real evidence to support evolution" is nonsense.  Genetics, paleontology, biogeography, anatomy -- all solidly support evolution.

If you could choose to have a beautiful child or a genius child, which would you pick?

A genius child will have intellectual attributes but might lack other attributes such as compassion, friendliness, goodwill etc. On the other hand a beautiful child might lack intellectual attributes but might have other compelling attributes. My answer is any child is beautiful and genius and should not be a matter of choice, beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder based on how you percieve it.

where can i find the funny hat the pope wears? thanks !!!?

Just fyi, the hat is called the Papal Tiara or Triple Tiara. I'm not sure you could buy one...but you may be able to make one, check this link for directions:\n\nhttp://gauntlet.ucalgary.ca/story/3636\n\nHere is some info on the hat...\n\nThe Papal Tiara, also known as the Triple Tiara, in Latin as the 'Triregnum', or in Italian as the 'Triregno',[1] (#wp-endnote_Triregno) is the three-tiered jewelled papal crown of Byzantine and Persian origin that is the symbol of the papacy. Papal Tiaras were worn by all popes from Pope Clement V to Pope Paul VI, who was crowned in 1963. Though Pope Paul VI abandoned the use of his own tiara during the Second Vatican Council, symbolically laying it on the altar of St. Peter's Basilica, he did not abolish its use, explicitly requiring in his 1975 Apostolic Constitution Romano Pontifici Eligendo that his successor be crowned.\n\nHowever, his immediate successor, John Paul I, refused to be crowned, and John Paul II, who also declined a coronation, told the congregation at his Papal Inauguration Mass, immediately after John Paul I's sudden death, that it was "not the time" to be crowned, while disputing the claim by critics of the tiara that it represented a papal claim to temporal power.[2] (#wp-endnote_homily)\n18th century Papal Tiara, the oldest surviving tiara in the papal collection.\nEnlarge\n18th century Papal Tiara, the oldest surviving tiara in the papal collection.\n\nThough not currently used as part of papal regalia, the continuing symbolism of the papal tiara is reflected in its use on the flag and coats of arms of the Holy See and the Vatican. For a millennium until the reign of Benedict XVI it had been one of the ornaments surrounding a Pope's personal coat of arms. In a controversial break with tradition, on the first version of Benedict's personal coat of arms the tiara was replaced with the papal mitre. The mitre contains three levels reminiscent of the three tiers on the papal tiara.[3] (#wp-endnote_arms) This was the first such use since Pope Paul VI prohibited the use of mitres and croziers on coats of arms in 1969.[4] (#wp-endnote_crozier) However the Vatican subsequently issued documents which contained Benedict's coat of arms showing a tiara, not a mitre. It is unclear whether the initial arms announced have been withdrawn, or whether it is proposed to use two alternate designs, a "personal" set of arms with a mitre, and an official "state" set of arms for Benedict with a tiara.

Holy Ghost is a play by Dr. Jon Tuttle, Playwright-in-Residence and Literary Manager at Trustus Theatre in Columbia, South Carolina, and Professor of English at Francis Marion University. Tuttle's other works include Drift and The Hammerstone.\n\nThe play explores the conflicts that result from clashes of myriad sectors of humanity. It is set in 1944, in a camp in South Carolina for German prisoners-of-war, overseen by black guards who enjoy few of the liberties the prisoners do. While there, the prisoners are subjected to a secret governmental re-education program which, ironically, resembles Goebbels' Nazi propaganda. One prisoner escapes, equipped only with the lines he’s learned playing the lead in a camp production of Abe Lincoln in Illinois, and chased by a black private who sees the pursuit as a quest for acceptance. Their dash across the American South explores the ironies and hypocrisies of the American mythos.

How do Muslims rationalize that their 50 year old prophet had sex with his 9 year old wife?

This is a personal response, not a cut and paste, as I hope you will read the full reply.\n\nFirstly, 'Aisha (peace be upon her) was an adult when the marriage was consummated, though she entered into the Prophet's (peace be upon him) house several years before consummation. Her young age distresses many people today, and given the current climate, it is understandable why.\n\nHowever, I ask you a question, who is your frame of reference when you think of a nine year old? Think about this carefully. Have you ever had the experience of meeting a nine year old from Mauritania? Where individuals in their teens are judges and there is no adolescence?\n\nIt should be noted that adolescence is an artificial period that has been injected into the lives of our youth due to the current education system (you can read The Disappearance of Childhood by Neil Postman if you would like further details on this). The reality is that once individuals are pubescent, they are adults. If they act like children, then it is due to their upbringing and social environment.\n\nA key feature of Arabia fifteen hundred years ago is that they were an oral_ culture, and I wonder whether the neurologists you mention have ever met such an individual. They would develop a deep understanding and eloquence in language at a very young age – are you aware of the affect that language has on maturity? They would memorize massive amounts of information (thousands upon thousands of lines of poetry) at a very young age. Did you know that memorizing in youth actually creates more synapses in the brain? The youth of Arabia fifteen hundred years ago fought in battles, got married and took care of their families in their teens. This is historical reality, and was a norm of that society.\n\nTo respond to the statement that doctors say that the organs are not developed – then how is it that the youngest woman to conceive was only five years old? (Such relations are prohibited in Islam as the youngest a woman is considered to be an adult is nine.)\n\nIf you study the life of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) you will see the wisdom in the marriage. 'Aisha (peace be upon her) narrates over two thousand Prophetic traditions – second only to Abu Hurayra (peace be upon him). Of the one hundred thousand plus companions of the Prophet, she was from the less than ten that issued legal verdicts (Fatwa). She would question the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) in a way that other people would not, and because of this, we have gained greater understanding of verses of the Qur'an.\n\nTo respond to the various accusations that are leveled against the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), remember that his first wife was twenty five years older than him, and every wife after 'Aisha (peace be upon her) was a widow.\n\nYou may contend that only someone that is eighteen (as an example) should get married. I ask why? If your answer is related to maturity, and I am pretty certain that it will be, then what happens if  maturity is found in some that is fifteen (or younger) – should they be allowed to get married? If the answer is no, then your problem with the marriage lies with the taboos of your society, and not because you think that a nine year old can't make any decisions for themselves.


The itch you feel is a reaction to the mosquitioes' saliva and your skin. I don't think I have ever heard of anyone that is immune to it. Also, you getting bitten has alot to do with your body temp, and odor. If you have a sweet smelling perfume on or emit a sweet odor, you attract mosquitoes and those wearing no scents and bug spray of course, are more likely to not get bitten.

Here is a PDF that shows the differences between 17 different social bookmarking sites available. \n\nhttp://www.irox.de/roxomatic/856\n\nBlinklist you can make comments on the bookmark where del.icio.us you can not. del.icio.us there is an archive for other people's feeds. del.icio.us you can only import links from Firefox and Netscape. del.icio.us you can view RSS feed as HTML. Blinklist is easier to include in homepage. \n\nThere are a bunch of other differences I could see from that document.

What are the advantages  and disadvantages of colon cleansing?

Not only does colon cleansing provide no benefit, it can be downright dangerous. Contrary to popular belief, the inside of the colon -- the end of the large intestine -- isn't dirty and does not need to be cleaned out. Mother Nature does that on her own by making sure that waste passes through and out of your body, taking impurities with it. There is no medical reason whatsoever for having a cleansing enema. Enemas are only for treating stubborn constipation and for preparing the colon for a test (for example, a barium enema) or for surgery. If you want to flush out impurities from your body, have another glass of water instead.

How much money - in total - did americans lose in the great depression?

There is a big difference between the Stock market crash of 1929 and the following decade now called the Great Depression.  The market fell due to failure to realize the bubble of imaginary cash that was supporting it.  No real money was lost in the crash, just perceived money: about $30 billion worth.\nThe Great Depression, on the other hand, was a decade of slow economic growth due to high unemployment (up to 33 percent).  Real wages were being lost, real value of products low and real estate values dropped as well.\nThe Real Gross National Product (GNP) fell one third of its 1928 high.  Some estimate this translates about $50 billion of unrecovered value.

Most BIOS are upgradable using updates from the manufacturer.  Keep in mind that BIOS is not software...it's firmware (software embedded into a programmable controller).  As such, you won't be adding any more features or functionality.  It will only fix bugs with older firmware revisions.  You will still be limited by the original specifications of the motherboard (e.g. CPU speed, CPU type, memory limits, memory speed, memory type, etc.).

The brothers were Siamese twins, joined at the side. They lived in Birmingham, Alabama. Because they drove on the right-hand side of the road the steering wheel was on the left-hand side of the car. The brother who sat on the left always drove. When they were in London, England, the other drove because the steering wheel was on the right-hand side of the car.


Around 600 BC Greeks found that by rubbing an 'electron' (a hard Fossilised resin that today is known as Amber) against a fur cloth, it would attract particles of straw. This strange effect remained a mystery for over 2000 years, until, around AD 1600, Dr William Gilbert investigated the reactions of amber and magnets and first recorded the word 'Electric' in a report on the theory of magnetism.

why was Madison chosen as Wisconsin's state capital?

Madison was created in 1836 when a former federal judge named James Duane Doty purchased over a thousand acres (4 km²) of swamp and forest land surrounding lakes Mendota, Monona, Kegonsa, and Waubesa, then known as the Four Lakes region, with the intention of building a new city on the site. Wisconsin Territory had been created earlier in the year, and the territorial legislature had convened in Belmont, Wisconsin. One of the legislature's tasks was to choose a permanent location for the territory's capital city. James Duane Doty lobbied aggressively for the legislature to select Madison as the new capital, offering buffalo robes to the freezing legislators and promising choice Madison lots at discount prices to undecided voters. He had James Slaughter plat two cities in the area, Madison and "The City of Four Lakes", near present-day Middleton. Despite the fact that Madison was still only a city on paper, the territorial legislature voted on November 28 in favor of choosing Madison for its capital largely because of its location halfway between the new and growing cities around Milwaukee in the east and the long established strategic post of Prairie du Chien in the west, and because of its location between the highly populated lead mining regions in the southwest and Wisconsin's oldest city, Green Bay in the northeast. Being named for a much-admired founding father who had just passed away, and having streets named after every founding father, also helped attract votes.\n\nThe cornerstone for the Wisconsin capitol building was laid in 1837, and the legislature first met there in 1838. Madison was incorporated as a village in 1846, with a population of 626. When Wisconsin became a state in 1848, Madison remained the capital city, and it became host to the University of Wisconsin. The Milwaukee & Mississippi Railroad (a predecessor of what would become known as the Milwaukee Road) connected to Madison in 1854. Madison became a city in 1856, with a population of 6,863.

what is the meaning of generic pharmaceutical?

Generic Pharmaceutical is the same as generic drugs.\n\nQuoted from the source below -\n"Generic drugs” is a term used for prescription drugs identified by their chemical name.  When the patent has expired on a brand name drug, the FDA permits manufacturers other than the original developer to create a bioequivalent of the brand name drug and make it available to the public.  Generally, more than one manufacturer will create the generic version, although in many cases the same pharmaceutical firm that produces the brand name drug also makes the generic version.  This prompts competitive pricing of the generic version and usually results in a less expensive drug.


In order for a tornado to form, a number of different things have to happen. The first thing that has to happen is that you have to have two different patches of air moving toward each other from opposite directions, with a warm one on the bottom and a cool one on the top.\n\nThe next thing that happens is that the warm air rises. (You may have learned about hot air rising in school.) After the warm air goes up, the cool air comes down to take its place. So now the warm and cool patches of air are moving side to side and up and down. So they make a spinning patch of air along the ground. This is probably pretty hard to imagine, so check out the picture:\n\nUsually when a tornado is starting, it happens during a storm. So there's lots of air moving around already. If a draft of air from the storm comes along close to the ground and then moves upwards (called an "up-draft"), it will pull the spinning air upwards.\n\nNow comes the part that we don't understand quite as well. So far the spinning air is still really really wide. Somehow it gets pulled in really tight so that it makes a tornado. (Scientists aren't exactly sure why this happens sometimes but not at other times.)


I'm gonna have to go with my gut and say that a having an extra sac (even if it's filled with air or pus) is probably a bad thing. Of course, I'm not a doctor, so it may be really great. Might wanna swing by the M.D. just to check.

Lazaro Francisco, the eminent Tagalog novelist of the pre-war years, was to continue to produce significant work. He revised his Bayaning Nagpatiwakal (1932), refashioning its plot and in sum honing his work as a weapon against the policies that tended to perpetuate American economic dominance over the Philippines.

Why do we say "The door is 'open.'" but say "The door is 'closed'"? Why no "ed" in the former, "ed" in later?

the door is "open" is a state of being. instead of , it will be "opened.  in  that case, it will be but hasnt yet.  the door is "closed"  is stated after it has physically closed.  therefore the "ed" is there to express that it has already closed.

If I found a crocodille in a land, what is the best: Run stright or run zig-zag?

A crocodile is no speedster on land. Either running straight or zig-zagging you have to be quicker than the crocodile. Humans are averagely faster than crocodile on land. After all, a crocodile runs out of gas quickly. That's why when it makes a kill it is really quick or it will end up empty-stomached and tired.

How did loose small hard rocks form in the desert?

large rocks break into smaller rocks by means or erosion, and by water seeping into cracks and freezing.  Ice may be rarer in deserts, but it is not unknown.  Wind also plays a role in erosion, but much less.  In some cases, rocks might have been formed in other places, and carried to distant places by rivers or glaciers.  Deserts weren't always deserts--a place that is today a desert might have once been a swamp, a prarie, or the bottom of a lake or sea.


What makes the blue and yellow lines (1st down and line of scrimmage) on NFL football field for tv?

it's a crew of like, 5 or so people, somewhere near the stadium or at the stadium- they watch the game and they have a slick set of computers and data retreival components attached to the video cameras that are filming the game.  They use the coordinates of the cameras and computer special effects to create the lines that correspond to the correct location of the first down line and line of scrimmage.  The computers look for specific colors on the screen between the two sides of the field to determine whether or not to display the line- so if the part of the field is green (meaning it's grass)where the line should be, then it paints that part of the screen yellow! (or blue) If a player walks by, the computer knows not to color that section of the screen at that time- all in real time- it isn't perfect, (you'll see screwups as players walk through it sometimes) but it's pretty good - isn't that slick!?

What is a good Boost to start losing weight?

If you want to try something a little unconventional and safe, and if you are a little adventurous, pesto shots!! I discovered this while dropping over half the carbs out of my diet. When you drop carbs, you have a severe energy drop before your body adjusts. I made a great deal of pesto at home one day and sat around with a friend eating more and more of it like dip! We had an abundance of spinach and basil, stuck it in a blender, added fresh parsley and oregano, a little salt, a bunch of olive oil, and hit the button. The benefit from this is a natural body high, a spike in your metabolism, a huge spike in vitamins, and you'll be clean as a whistle! Talk about flushing out your system! You can pretty much add whatever you want to make it tasty, just don't overdo the salt, it'll make you retain water. Oh, and drink lots of cold water. Besides boosting your metabolism because your body has to heat it up before it goes through, flushing your system out can dehydrate you. It's an easy way to start a healthier lifestyle.


Tookie Williams, why can't he just stay locked up for life?

I don't believe in the death penalty; I mean who are we to play God like someone said. But the thing is; he was convicted and there was no doubt that he was guilty. He was also sentenced to death and I think that if we change the laws because one person said sorry; then others would do heinous crimes and be like "I'm sorry" and expect to be let off. \n\nI don't even know much about what's going on in his case but that's what I think.

Why do democratic societies force they views and lifestyles on other, is not that imperialistic?

Yes that is imperialistic, and they force their views and lifestyles on others so that everyone comes to value capitalism and markets and consumerism. This means that spending and buying is encouraged, which means more profits for the multinationals. And the MNCs are in cahoots with the government. HOWEVER, one shouldn't lump together all democratic societies... In the previous century many European countries were colonizing the rest of the world but now it is mainly America which is the imperial power. While there are many factors behind America's imperialism, the main factor is profits, since the American government is run by power elites more than common people.


I have liked this guy for more than 2 years and I have not seen him for a long time?

But make sure you give him space - you dont want to scare him off. (also dont get your hopes up- a lot can happen in 2yrs and you may not like him after all)

Origins of rootkits\n\nThe term "rootkit" (also written as "root kit") originally referred to a set of recompiled Unix tools such as "ps", "netstat", "w" and "passwd" that would carefully hide any trace of the intruder that those commands would normally display, thus allowing the intruders to maintain "root" on the system without the system administrator even seeing them.\n\nGenerally now the term is not restricted to Unix based operating systems, as tools that perform a similar set of tasks now exist for non-Unix operating systems such as Microsoft Windows (even though such operating systems may not have a "root" account)


how can we extract chlorophyll from  green leaves?

Why questions are often difficult to answer but you seem to have a very \nreasonable answer to explain your observation. To really confirm that the \nnongreen parts of your variegated leaves do not photosynthesize as much as the \ngreen parts, you would need to do one of the following:  \n\n1. Starch test the leaves to show that there is little or no starch in nongreen \nareas and lots of starch in green areas. This may not work on all leaves \nbecause some plants do not accumulate starch in their leaves but export \nphotosynthates as sucrose.\n\n2. Extract chlorophyll from green and nongreen areas to show the nongreen areas \nhave little or no chlorophyll while green areas have lots of chlorophyll. Just \nbecause a leaf is nongreen does not mean that there is not chlorophyll there. \nIn some nongreen leaves, other pigments such as carotenoids and anthocyanins, \nsimply mask the green chlorophyll.\n\n3. Measure photosynthesis in leaf disks cut from green and nongreen areas of \nthe leaf to show that photosynthesis occurs in green but not nongreen parts.

Tell Me About The Second Law of Thermodynamics and Relate it to The Dinosaurs as Christianity Tries To Do?

The second law of thermodynamics is a general principle which places constraints upon the direction of heat transfer and the attainable efficiencies of heat engines. In so doing, it goes beyond the limitations imposed by the first law of thermodynamics. It's implications may be visualized in terms of the waterfall analogy. It's fundamental principle is entropy: In any cyclic process the entropy will either increase or remain the same.\n\nBasically, creationists believe in that the 2nd Law defines intention. An ordered process. But it has been disproven 100 years ago.

There are actually several formulas I know of to calculate power.\n1. Work (Joules) divided by time (seconds)\n2. Force (Newtons) times velocity (meters per second)\n3. Current (Amperes) times voltage (Volts)\n4. Current squared times resistance (ohms)\n5. Voltage squared divided by resistance\n\nIn your case, applying the first formula gives you no power in the system since no work is being done unless the blades accelerate tangentially (centripetal force is not parallel to the direction of motion). If there is definitely a non-zero answer to this question, then use the second formula.

Does Racism  go both ways? is it okay for any race to hate any other race?

I could dictate paragraphs on racism, as a topic - but you simply asked if it was "Ok for any race to hate any other race". \n\nI will give you a simple answer.  No.  It isn't "Ok".

Is German an easy enough language to be able to learn on my own?

I'm working on learning German on my own right now, too!\n\nI don't think it's so much of a matter of how easy or hard German is, but what methods you use to learn it and how much effort you put into it.\n\nAs a language teacher, my advice for learning any language is to get as much exposure to the language as possible, and try to maximize your understanding of what you read and hear.  This happens naturally in many classes, but you can also expose yourself to much understandable German on your own through books, tapes that you listen to, videos, and so forth.\n\nIf your purpose for learning German is just to read it, you can probably get a long way with just a dictionary and a book on German grammar.  If your purpose is to be able to speak it, you might want to find a friend, neighbor, or other conversation partner who will be willing to talk and listen to you.\n\nSo, I guess in summary, if you feel that you aren't motivated to do this kind of work on your own, take a class, but if you are pretty diligent there's a lot you can do to learn a language on your own.\n\nKeep up the good work!

Ms. Lacey, first of all, congratulations on bringing your baby into the world.  I'm sure he's a beautiful, strong boy.\n\nAt the same time, if his father left you because of the stretchmarks you got carrying his (his too) son, I'm sorry...he doesn't deserve you or your son.  \n\nThose marks have never bothered me in the least.  I know for a fact that they are noticed more by the new moms then they are by the dads, or men in general.\n\nI sure hope it wasn't because of a few hardly noticeable marks...that's so uncool...and, I'm sorry, Ms. Lacey, un-manly.

It's a sin to divorce if you don't have grounds and you've not taken your husband through the process described in Matthew 18 for church discipline. \n\nIf you are considering divorce, I personally believe the only grounds are repeated and unrepentant adultery or abuse.\n\nThe offending spouse must be called to responsibiliy by you, and if he/she ignores you, then several believers must confront the offending spouse and if that fails, the church must contact the offending spouse.\n\nIf the offending spouse still fails to follow the instruction of the church, the church is to consider that person as an unbeliever and excommunicate them from the church.\n\nYou are then free to divorce and marry another if you desire.\n\nBH

Women cheat too...why do they pretend only men do?

That whole idea where men are the main cheaters is all wrong. I do believe that men, and women both have the same disposition to strayed. But, women are just better in hiding, and lying.

How do I identify unknown songs in iTunes?

IF you happen to have an album of unknown tracks you can use a program such as "Eags On!" which searches various database for your song lengths and applies ID3 tags to thos esongs. Doesnt always work though and may not work for stand alone files, i am not sure if there is a version of OSX\n\nAlternatively itunes comes with a CDDB database lookup facitily- just enable it and that muight work.

Was Schwarzenegger right in not giving Tookie clemancy?

Yes, It's absurd that just because a bunch of stupid celebrities start saying that they support some old gang banger that the public actually listens to them.  My god, when will America stop watching gay reality TV, reading their stupid tabloids, and especially stop caring about celebrities pollitical opinions.  Most of these people have not gone to college, or even worse dropped out of highschool.  Schwarzenegger made the right decision, even though he is also a celebrity.  God California is in la la land.


What is Pixel Shader v1.1 Graphics Card?

This isn't something you can download, you will need a graphics card that supports hardware pixel sharders, this is nothing you can upgrade on a laptop, I hate to say but unless you have a desktop you can install the game on there is nothing you can do to make it work on a laptop.  I know you won't like this but you will have to find a laptop that has at the very least a Radeon X600 or one with a nVidia mobility Go GeForce4, Go FX5700 or Go 6600 and up mobile graphics chip or play the game on a desktop.  \n\nFor a desktop, I like the following cards:\n\nAny modern graphics cards has hardware pixel shaders and texture and lightning features, assuming you have an AGP slot, check out the GeForce 6600 at $120 (AGP version) or the other GeFroce 6600 (PCIe version at $100).\n\nIf you don't want to spend that much you can get the Radeon 9600 (AGP version) for $58 after rebates.  Or the Radeon 9550 for $48 after rebates.\n\nIt depends on how much you want to spend but if you want my opinion, I would go with the GeForce 6600 but it is up to you.


Why do so many people think OJ simpson was guilty even though the court found him not guilty ?

Because he won the trial due to technicalities.  \n\nAll the evidence point at him and only the incompetance of the District Attorney and the great work of his attorneys saved him


I don't think so. If you love someone that much, you will never fall entirely out of it, if the relationship ends. You can never love that strong twice.


Why does it seem like middle america is getting less intelligent at an exponentially accelerated rate?

The Amishization* of America is happening rather fast.  The far right Christian coalition is afraid of science and most other fields of study so they do all that they can to interfer with education except those subjects that fit into their own very narrow biblical precepts. I am a Christian but I also believe in science.  This makes me suspect as far as far right Christians go.  Also being a Democrat is not acceptable since only Republicans can be Christians.  Some people call it the rise of the Anerican Christian-Taliban who are attempting to  take control of our democracy and establish a mind-police over us and put a Christian theocracy in place of our own government.  Men, not elected by the people, but, in their own minds, apponted by God to rule over us.  That is what the king system was supposedly. It is also how most middle east countries are set up. It is the dumbing down of America, by a fanatical few, to take us over and control us.\n(*Amish link below explains who and what the Amish are)


how do deal with not trusting a spouse, and having thoughts like  online cheating ?

Honesty is the best policy. Tell your spouse how you are feeling and what has been going through your mind. Then go in together and get some good marital counseling. Oh, and getting rid of the computer until the health of your marriage recovers is indeed a good idea.


Why do Israilis and Palestinians hate each other so much?

They both lay claim to the same land .   one historically, and one right now.  It is similar to what happened in Northern Ireland and I must say I am really impressed by how the peace there has been working well.  The armed units of the IRA are seeing that economic development  and stability cures  a lot of  problems that happen when no one has a job.  I believe if overnight 95% of Palestinian men were employed the religious conflicts would be worked out or would just go way by themselves


Is being a christian important to you as important it is to me?

yes, it is. It defines your morals and who you are to others. Also being a Christian means living godly lives as Christ did. Others look up to you and see your prosperity, your love & care, and the values that are enstill within you. It will surely make you be a light to others and you'll feel good knowing that God is well pleased.

Does anyone know Drake's Equation right off the top of their head?

it's pretty hard to remember this off the top of one's head, because there are a lot of terms, and a lot of the numbers are orders-of-magnitude, and who can keep track of all that?\n\nanyway the equation is N = R* fp * ne * fl * fi *  fc * L\n\nwhere\n\nN = The number of communicative civilizations\nR = The rate of formation of suitable stars (stars such as our Sun)\nfp = The fraction of those stars with planets. (Current evidence indicates that planetary systems may be common for stars like the Sun.)\nne = The number of Earth-like worlds per planetary system\nfl = The fraction of those Earth-like planets where life actually develops\nfi = The fraction of life sites where intelligence develops\nfc = The fraction of communicative planets (those on which electromagnetic communications technology develops)\nL = The "lifetime" of communicating civilizations

i want to about basic knowledge of cyrogenics for my presentation?

The word cryogenics literally means "the production of icy cold"; however the term is used today as a synonym for the low-temperature state. It is not well-defined at what point on the temperature scale refrigeration ends and cryogenics begins. The workers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology at Boulder, Colorado have chosen to consider the field of cryogenics as that involving temperatures below –150 °C (123 K). This is a logical dividing line, since the normal boiling points of the so-called permanent gases (such as helium, hydrogen, neon, nitrogen, oxygen, and normal air) lie below -150 °C while the Freon refrigerants, hydrogen sulfide, and other common refrigerants have boiling points above -150 °C.\n\nRecent research regarding superconductivity at low temperatures has been called cryoelectronics, and the utilization of these sciences is called cryotronics.


It was once illegal in the US, during a period known as prohibition.  However, while alcohol use dipped initially, prohibition's negative effects outweighed the positive ones.  One problem is that despite the fact that alcohol was illegal, it was easy to make and import alcohol from outside the US.  As well, prohibition did a great deal to contribute to organized crime, which profited of sales of alcohol.  Since alcohol consumption was and is still well established in American and British culture, the demand is such that underground organizations would thrive.  As such, we would see an increase in crime and probably not a tremendous fall in alcohol-related crime.\n\nTo add to that, the alcohol-making industry has much more resources than the prohibitionist movement and thus prohibition is also less politically viable for financial reasons.\n\nFor more info on prohibition, check out the Wikipedia article below.


Can I find out who someone is, if I only have their e-mail address?

You can always try looking up the e-mail adress in a web search engine. In older public forums the address was shown in clear text.\n\nQuite often the domain (the stuff behind the @ sign) can give hints about the sender, or the user handle before. Yahoo addresses may have a public profile which sometimes give you hints or information.\n\nIn the age of spam, more often than not the sender address is faked, though. In that case you couldn't even reply.\n\nAlternatively, you can use a second, free e-mail account to reply to the sender without revealing your identity. But then the original sender will be in the same situation you are in now...


How do I make my girlfriend feel better?

She'll be ok.  The stress she feels is temporary. If she is like me, she just needs time alone to focus and not feel like she needs to pay attention to other's needs right now.  I bet she is a very giving person.  She is being too hard on herself, though. Stress will make you say and do silly things. Maybe if you sent her a love letter telling her how much you love her and admire her strength and abilities. Let her know you are behind her 100% and can't wait to see  her get into a college.  Tell her you are proud of her for working so hard. Just basically do all you can to boost her up and make her feel special.  Send the letter( hand written!) through regular mail.  For some reason, and hand written love letter is always the best thing in the world to cheer up a gal!   Good luck.

whhy is it when have changed my password and then try to log on it is denied?

Try closing and reopening your browser. It might be a cache problem.


Hi, Ok you would like to adjust your browser settings? well I have a lot of good information on how to do this, Because I dont know what browser settings you mean, I will just write down all browser settings (lol) , Ok here goes to change any settings in the top task bar click on "Tools" and select Internet Options, Now to change your homepage replace whatever you see in "Home Page Address" You can also see 3 buttons below saying Delete Cookies (which will clear all the websites on your browser) and then Delete Files which will delete everyting stored on your browser by other websites and Settings. Below that you will see history now clear history, to clear all the websites that you have visited on IE.  But this is the best trick of all, If you have Google Search and you type something in there, or you passwords keep remembering when you dont want them to and you dont want other people to see what you have been viewing click Content Tab in Internet Options then click AUTO COMPLETE and cilck CLEAR FORMS, and CLEAR PASSWORDS, Now if you still need more information DO NOT HESITATE to ask me more questions, I will respond to them as best as I can.

why does it get colder when your on a mountin,you are closer to the sun.?

It's a long winded explanation - see link below.\n\n(snip)\nthe sun's heat acts almost the same as the sun's light — it passes through the air almost as though the air wasn't there.\n\nThis means that almost all of the sun's heat goes into warming up the oceans and the land it hits. As the oceans and ground warm up, they warm the air next to them, and this air warms the air a little higher up and so on. But, as you go higher, there's less and less heat available to go up, and the air gets colder.\n(snip)

The perfect wife is an impossibility.  Sorry, but we just weren't made to be perfect.\n\nHumans are not only very individualistic, we are also dynamic.  We change from day to day, and hopefully we grow.  And there is no way two people are going to mesh perfectly in their characters, much less their in their growth.\n\nIf you try to be the perfect wife for someone, something is going to give.  If you give up yourself, in the end you will never be able to have the emotion or intensity to make for a truly good relationship.  This is a soul destroying choice.\n\nInstead, go for being the best and realest wife you can.  This requires true honesty, not just of events but honesty of your own needs and desires.  It also involves compromise which sometimes means that you won't get what you want, and sometimes that your husband won't get what he wants.\n\nIf you have a relationship based on honesty and fairness, it will be greater and richer than any relationship you could have based on perfection.


I don't think people hate President Bush, but I do think they strongly disagree with his policies because those policies hurt America. On his watch, the budget surplus was given away as tax cuts to the rich instead of used to fortify Social Security or increase national defense.  Because he ignored Osama Bin Laden during the first 8 months of his term and ignored the memos about terrorists learning to fly airplanes, we were not prepared for the terrorists who attacked us on 9/11. President Bush's policies ignore the advice of scientists, putting our health at risk and putting our environment at risk. Because of the systemic torture committed in Abu Gharib and across the world in our name, President Bush has damaged America's moral standing in the world. Because his administration really did not learn the lessons of 9/11, President Bush lost us an entire city, New Orleans. And while New Orleans was drowning, President Bush was literally playing guitar with a country rock star. The buck stops with the President. His behavior is confusing, and his policies have helped make us look weak and have left us open for disaster.

The science and technology of building electronic circuits and devices from single atoms and molecules. Bottom-up, or self-assembly, approaches to nanofabrication use chemical or physical forces operating at the nanoscale to assemble basic units into larger structures. As component size decreases in nanofabrication, bottom-up approaches provide an increasingly important complement to top-down techniques. The most common top-down approach to fabrication involves lithographic patterning techniques using short-wavelength optical sources. A key advantage of the top-down approach—as developed in the fabrication of integrated circuits—is that the parts are both patterned and built in place, so that no assembly step is needed.  The benefit to these types of technology are it is easier for something small to build something small, therefore human interaction is no longer needed the nanos can build themselves reducing error and manpower necessary.

I've bought a new microphone (altec lansing headset) for my iMac G5, but it isn't recognized. How do I fix it?

Check if the hardware is even Mac OS compatible. I have a Powerbook and lots of hardware does not run on Mac, just because software developers don't think Mac users are that important.\n\nSo make sure it should run on Mac OS (usually on the side of the box). If it does, check the manufactures' website for software to get it running.

Should i hint to my boyfriend that i'm ready to get engaged?

Don't start dropping hints all the time. If you do that he'll prob. just get annoyed or freaked out. Instead, why don't you tell him you need to talk about something and explain how you feel to him. See what he has to say, and take it from there.\nIf you want to marry this man you should be able to have conversations like this, and he will respect you more for being straight forward with him instead of playing games and dropping poorly veiled hints all of the time.\nAfter you talk about it, do not hound him all of the time about it either.

Or that you are singing to your baby or someone you love. \n\nThe trick is to get you mind into somewhere comfortable. And then just let it be…..\n\nGood luck


Depending on your budget, the best way is to advertise.  You can see about putting up brochures at local gyms, hair salons, nail salons.

A few years ago, a new natural product hit the market. It's called AIRBORNE and was developed by a second-grade teacher. It is amazing. It is best to take it when you first notice symptoms.

I reformatted a hard drive that had linspire on it. now I cant install xp what do I do.?

Did you boot from the DVD.  If you tried it and that didn't work you can ignore my response.  But, Boot the laptop, pop the DVD in and restart, the PC should then boot with the DVD and you will be able to restore windows.  If it isn't set to boot from the DVD then you will have to get into the BIOS and set the DVD drive as the first boot drive.  To get into your BIOS you will have to watch the first splash screen which will say something like "to enter configuration press Delete" or something similar so do that and you will be able to set your DVD drive as the first boot device.  This is assuming of course that it is an actual DVD disc and that the drive on your laptop is a DVD drive.  If it is just a CD drive then it won't ready DVDs.  Sorry, I had to say that, I have had people put DVDs in CD drives and they expected them to be readable.


How much did the new steroid policies effect baseball last season?

Palmiero was what I was going to mention before I saw the details. After he got caught, he did nothing to help Baltimore. The steroid policy worked last year but this year with the more strict rules, anyone who doesn't get caught will have probably refused to take the test. But then he can't play. The steroid policy will be great this year.


Is Yahoo! Answers a reliable source for those who seeks answers?

Well, most of the answers are sort of discussion, personal opinion and more of an advice. But but but, if you see the Serious sections on Computer Science, Physics, chemistry, you would find really good and to the point answers. This is a forum for seeking opinions  and help. Unfortunately, since its craze has just started, most of the people are just putting stupid/ irrelevent questions and the same for answers just to get some points. People do grow up after a week on this network, asking more mature questions and replying better quality answers. The recent change in scoring pattern by Yahoo has definitely discouraged this 'irrelevent' scam questions and answers. Take my word, wait for a month, by the time it would become a big knowledge bank. However, if you have some serious questions, post on Google groups and you would find really good and precise answers.

Are you talking a dual router network.

To join a Messianic Jewish congregation, do you first have to born a Jew?

Messianic ""Jewish"" congregations of course welcome visitors. No, a person does not have to be born a Jew to join a messianic congregation. \n\nAs a matter of fact, the majority of their members were not ever Jewish up until recently, and this is also true about their messianic ""rabbis."" Many of them change their names to something that sounds stereotypically Jewish, in order to better target those they want to convert to Christianity.\n\nAs the success of this newest technique in missionizing the less knowledgeable Jews increased, the percentage of membership of ex-Jews as members of their messianic congregations has also increased, now running about 50-50.\n\nIt is also interesting to note that a large number of people converting TO Judaism have come to real Judaism from having been exposed to Messianic ""Judaism."" \n\nWhat you should expect at a messianic congregation is that all references to Christian theology has been changed to make it sound more Jewish, and therefore more pallatable to their targets. They will only refer to Jesus as 'Yeshua' (which would not have been his name), they will say 'moshiach' instead of 'christ,' they will say 'synagogue' instead of 'church,' and on and on, in keeping with the techniques described in the book Understanding Church Growth by Donald MacGavran, who helped the idea of Indiginous Cultural Evangelism get started. \n\nThe services will sound very Jewish, usually a lot of (mispronounced) Hebrew, and prayers will have been changed to add the Christian theology of Jesus to them, again, to make the service more familiar to their targets.\n\nRemember that these messianic congregations need member$hip, and so they also target those Christians who want to know more about the ""Jewish roots"" of Christianity as well, so you will be very welcomed.
