how to write an effective personal propfile?

When it comes to online dating, writing an really good profile and posting really good pictures do have an impact on the number of responses or inquiries that you receive.\n\nFirst, avoid being negative in your profile. Don't use words anywhere like "I'm lonely" whether in your profile or username (i.e. "lonelyheart"). Don't talk about how you just got out of a relationship, etc. All of this is not important to the person reading your profile and is a downer that will lose you a lot of potential communication.\n\nBe descriptive. Instead of "I like to discover new things," say, "I'm a lot like Indiana Jones in that I love exploring the mysteries of life, while educating my mind to appreciate new things."\n\nSee the sources below for more tips. Good luck!


Radio SETI (Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence) is the effort to detect narrow-band radio signals. Nothing known other than technology (i.e., a radio station) can make narrow-band signals—that is, signals that you can tune into and out of with just a turn or two of the radio dial. Optical SETI uses the same reasoning, but here again apparently only technology can produce light pulses that last a billionth (nano) of a second (although stars can collapse to make a millisecond pulsar that can pulse a thousand times per second). Since PlanetQuest will be using only the red part of the star’s light to detect the transits of planets across their stars, we plan to "beam-split" (divide off) the blue light and send it to our nano-second diode detectors to see at the same time if any of those stars are sending billionth-of-a-second pulses toward us, as well. Thus you, the PlanetQuester, will be looking for planets and extraterrestrial technology at the same time!


How is Current Interet infrastructure in Vietnam?

In all due respect, the previous answer is wrong.\n\nInternet access is surprisingly very good in the cities and even in many of the rural areas. ADSL is available for residential and businesses use with fees usually less than similar services in America. However, high speed acess is sparsly used by residents due to the prohibited cost of computers in Vietnam.\n\nComputers cost a little more and are last year's models compared to US computers. The average pay in Vietnam is about 1/6th to 1/8th of comparable employment in America, which puts a home computer further out of reach for the average Vietnamese household. That may change very soon as there are several new computer manufacturing companies starting up in Vietnam.\n\n\nInternet cafe's are all over the place where usage is incredibly cheap (about 10 cents/hour). A typical block in Hanoi may see a dozen cafe's mostly packed with ids and young adults playing cyber games.\n\nMost medium to larger businesses have T-1 access and usually allow their employees to use the Internet for personal use to provide more opportunities to learn about computers and the Internet. Businesses that conduct internations comerce usually have highspeed Internet used mostly for Internet phone calls.\n\nLong story short.. Internet is very much available in Vietnam and easily accessible.

If there is such a shortage of nurses in the country, why do you need to be screened and accepted.?

Good question, It costs the universities 40 or more times more to educate nurses then other majors. Who is going to pay for the teachers? Well it is supplimented by other students when they go to the universities with nursing programs. The screening is because it is easier to teach a smart student than one that is not. Put yourself in the teachers position? Which would you like to teach..

how has man impacted the ocean and the atmosphere?

It appears as though man has decreased the productivity of the oceans, by runoff of fertilizers and pollutants. Many places like Newfoundland's Grand Banks and the Chesapeake Bay have suffered disasterous declines in productivity. \n\nMan might have also changed the carbon dioxide and dust content of the atmosphere, which might contribute to climate change. Man definitely introduced CFCs into the atmosphere, which has enhanced the size and severity of the springtime ozone holes at the poles.

What came first, the Chicken, or the Egg?

Its obviously the egg.\nlet me explain. If we embrace the evolution theory, and we have no reason not to, then we can assume that each species evolved from some ancient ancestor. the chicken, as we know it today has evolved from some other bird. this bird was probably very similar to chicken but at some point in history it layed an egg that carried the mutation that became later - chicken.\nyou can ask - why isn't the egg evolved from something else? well, it actually has. BUT an egg is an egg no matter how it looks like or whats in it - it can cary achicken an owl or a snake. you still call it an egg.\n\nthis is why my short answer is : the Egg.

It is true that in Britain  the King was supreme sovereign from 1066 until Magna Carta (The Great Charter) . William’s conquering of England in 1066 established a feudalistic structure in which the single sovereign was the King with no responsibility to anyone.   However, prior to 1066 it was a different form of King which was responsible to the council and with real responsibility to those under him.  Old English Common Law ruled and its evolution clearly was rooted in Saxon Village law and prior to that going back at least into 1,000 BCE of Celtic culture.\n\nMagna Carta was a formal reinstitution of basic Common Law demonstrating that the cultural foundation from whence Common Law arose survived the 149 years between invasion and Magna Carta.\n\nThat Common Law continued to evolve resulting in multiple commitments of future Kings to subsequent documents similar to Magna Carta and others such as, The Petition of Right (1628), An Agreement of the Free People of England (1649), The Bill of Rights (1689).  Eventually this resulted in an ever evolving Parliamentarian system of government with an ever weakening Royal family.  However, as with the United States, it never became a democracy.

Why does adding salt decrease the freezing point of water?

These effects are sometimes called colligative properties in text books. The effect is entropic in origin but the precise description gets kind of hairy without a background in thermodynamics. Basically, there is a driving force called the mixing entropy, for water molecules to stay in a heterogeneous phase like a salty solution rather than a homogeneous phase like pure ice or water vapor. In the case of boiling point elevation, this means more energy must be put into the system to drive water molecules into the vapor phase. In the case of freezing point depression, this means that water molecules will tend to the liquid rather than solid phase.

pls give at least thing that the sun can do to all living things. and what is the importance of sunlight?

The sun provides energy to living organisms of the Earth.  There are autrophs and heterotrophs.  Autotrophs (like plants) use sunlight to turn CO2 and Water, which cannot be further oxidized as fuel into GLucose, which can be burned by a cell as a source of fuel.  Low rung food chain heterotrophs eat autotrophs (these are herbivores) and get their calories (food is a source of chemical potential energy) from the glucose (and some other chemicals) made by autotrophs.  \n\nHigher level heterotrophs eat the lower level heterotrophs, getting their calories from proteins and fats of the herbivores they are eating.  The calories contained in the proteins and fats of the herbivores is derived from the calories of the autotrophs.  In essence, the calories from food on this planet are derived from energy from sunlight that plants have converted to chemical form.

I want to know about the term "Yankee". When did it originate and what was its meaning?

The origin of the term is disputed. One theory customarily held by persons not from New England claims that it originated from the Dutch in old New Amsterdam (today known as New York City) in the Mid-Atlantic States. It then was adopted by the British as a pejorative for (Northern) colonists. The origin might have been the phrase Jan Kees ("John Cornelius") (two very common Dutch names), which the English-speaking people picked up as "yankees", a word they used to refer to the Dutch.

In Egyptian mythology, Anuket (also spelt Anqet, and in Greek, Anukis) was originally the goddess of the Nile River, in areas such as Elephantine Island, at the start of the Nile's journey through Egypt, and in nearby regions of Nubia. Since the flooding of the Nile is what nourishes the fields, she gained her name, which means embracer, in the sense of the nile embracing the fields. Her titles were similarly appropriate to this, including nourisher of the fields, giver of life, and she who shoots forth (in reference to the flooding).\n\nSince the god Chnum, and goddess Satis, were thought to be the gods of the source of the Nile, Anuket was viewed as their daughter. Being the deification of the Nile also lead to two tributaries of the Nile, in the region, being considered her arms. It also lead to her being associated with fast moving things, representing the river's flow, such as arrows, and the gazelle, which happens also to be an animal with a large presence at the Nile in this region. Thus in art, she was often depicted as a gazelle, or with a gazelle's head, sometimes having a headdress of feathers (thought by most Egyptologists to be a detail deriving from Nubia).\n\nCeremonially, when the Nile started its annual flood, the Festival of Anuket began, with people throwing coins, gold, jewelry, and precious gifts, into the river, in thanks for the life-giving water. The taboo, that was held in several parts of Egypt, on not eating fish, which were considered sacred, was lifted during this time.


Why does the toilet flush the opposite direction in Australia from the US?

The short answer is that toilets flush to the shape of the toilet - not because of northern or southern hemisphere location\n\nThe longer answer is that in theory it is possible that the "Coriolis effect" will change the the rotation of the flush. The Wikipedia link below has a detailed analysis. It can be abbreviated to "it's possible in an exact, scientific, controlled environment"

PASTE wrapping paper on the sides of the triangular box of chocolates\n\nMy preference is the gift bag method, since it is re-usable.

who said the sun never sets on the british empire?

The phrase "The Empire on which the sun never sets" (el imperio en el que no se ponía el sol) was first used of the Spanish Empire, and originates with a remark of Charles V, who declared "in my realm the sun never sets."\n\nHowever, in the 19th century it became very popular to apply the phrase to the British Empire. For example, the 19th century politician Lord Salisbury complained that the £1.5 million spent on colonial defence by Britain in 1861 merely enabled her "to furnish an agreeable variety of stations to our soldiers, and to indulge in the sentiment that the sun never sets on our Empire".

Are Fundamental Nature Constants like light speed,Plank constant,etc.contingent or can be deduced from Theory?

Lights speed is a constant that can be derived, but the constants upon which it hinges (eg permitivity constant) needed to be measured.  Einstein's relativity came as a theory when he saw that the speed of light came directly out of Maxwell's equations for electromagnetism.

what determines for each of the adjectives or noun roots whether the negative prefix is -im or -in?

Actually, negative prefixes may be im-, in-, il-, or ir-.  It depends on the sound of the root word.  Il- usually precedes other l-words, like "illegal."  Ir- usually precedes other r-words, like "irresponsible."  Im- usually precedes other m-words like "immobile," and also p-words because the sound of "m" on the lips easily transitions to the "p" sound, like "impossible" instead of "inpossible."  Finally, in- usually precedes all other words.

Have you ever played the game Diner Dash?

I happen to love this game.  When I first downloaded Diner Dash I was severely addicted.  When I got to the very last board of the game I gave up.  I periodically try it again and get depressed.  The freaks are sitting down at such a rapid pace and they are asking for bread and whatever those other things are.  I'm working 12 tables at once and they are all mad.  I know I have four arms but damn.  I do not look at a dining experience the same.  We had extremely bad service over the weekend at an Outback Steakhouse.  My husband and I joked about how many hearts we would have if this were diner dash. We concluded that we would have one heart and smoke rushing from our ears.


Who Affects more the Personality? The Geo-environment or the Socio-environment?

Personality is a function which involves the building of one’s personal boundary (some would call it an ego boundary).  This seems to happen at the end of one’s life as an infant and seems to be greatly associated with the learning of language.  Geo-, Socio-factors and internal brain chemistry all seem to have a part.  Mental choices of children seem to be involved in developing the individual personality.  The quality of the nurturing of the child (from any source) seems to allows more and better choices.  One must realize that preacher’s children can become prostitutes and serial killers and uneducated idiots can raise geniuses.  Life is a mystery.

Dr. Clausenstein invented the first prototype Santa in 1798 out of used human parts that he assembled in a secret laboratory in the alps. While the original Kris Kringle was a disaster, killing eight deer and seriously harming four small children, the very next attempt was a complete success, never harming another soul or animal. Although inconceivable today, Dr. Clausenstein was never granted a patent for his creation and was subsequently hanged for abominable crimes against humanity, forcing the monster Satan Claus (as he was known after the trial) to flee to the north pole.


Why has there been no female US president till now?

There's still no female US president. Women couldn't vote until the ratification of the 19th amendment in 1920, so that'll slow you up some. Women are highly underrepresented in Congress--currently around 14%. Why is a pretty tough question. Pervasive sexism is a problem--women who exhibit the qualities that we look for in male candidates (leadership, strength, ambition, etc.) are looked at negatively (arrogant, bitchy, etc.).

Think about where his interests lie, then look into unique gifts in that area.  For example, if he loves hunting, maybe you could find an antique hunting rifle or a painting of a hunting scene.  If he likes fast cars, then you could get him a scale model of his favorite car.  Sports, get him some sports memorabilia from his favorite player, etc. etc.  \n\nOf course, sexual favors are always appreciated. You could even make a little booklet of "coupons" he can redeem throughout the year as he chooses.

49 yrs old,work exp,mainly acting,some cab driving,what comp,progrms/skills should I beef up to get temp work?

The tired answer is to learn web programming skills, but those guys are generally a dime a dozen.\n\nLook into learning C# for windows.  There is a free version I believe that you can download for learning.  Learn how to do stuff with a database.  Again, I think there's a free version of SQL Server, or you can always use the free MySQL database.  Spend a lot of time really getting to undertand object oriented programming techniques (do this by making up some projects - games, DVD collection software, etc).  Once you have a good feel for it, farm yourself out dirt cheap - up to $20/hour - you may be able to find work as an "intern" for around $10 - $15/hour.  If you can live on that for around a year you're home free.  After a year of living like crap you should be good for a $50k/year job or less doing stuff you can work on at home.  After another year of that you should be able to do just about whatever you want.\n\nYou don't HAVE to do C#, but right now it's the easiest skill to get into places.  Java shops are going to be snootier and more difficult to get into for someone with no experience.  Lots more places are willing to give you a shot if you're willing to work for next to nothing (in programmer terms) and you know c#.\n\nIt's not easy, but it's not too hard either to get into programming and make a decent living.  If you have analytical skills and you enjoy solving problems, and, most importantly you aren't afraid to take risks, you can do it, no problem.

are republicans just BORN ignorant or is it learned from other rich arrogant people?

Hey thanks a lot. Its awfully nice of an enlightened liberal like you to make such a silly generalization. Not all republicans are rich, or white. No more than all democrats ar poor, or black, or gay, or whatever. We are all just people. Once we all recognize that, maybe we can put aside our petty differences, and make a real change for the better.

Usually this helps me to get over colds quickly: \n\n1 drink lots of fluids \n2 take some vitamin c\n3 keep the body warm, especially the back, and back of the neck\n4 lots of rest


how do i reinstall my operating system on my lap top?

A common trick that Technical Support providers use is to say the reason their software will not install is a problem with your OS rather than discovering the real reason their software won't install. \n\nI would ask them to try other options first before reinstalling an operating system which would lose at least some of your settings.\n\nIf you do find the need to reinstall the OS most laptops come with Restore CD's that allow you to return your laptop to the original state when you purchased the laptop.  If you don't have the Restore CD anymore, you can usually contact the place you bought the laptop from and request a copy of the CD.  \n\nUnder no circumstances should you allow someone like Best Buy to run a Restore CD for you because it is remarkably simple.  You usually only have to follow screen prompts and it is not worth the money you will have to pay for their "services".


What problems do people have with Jehovah's Witnesses? The door to door thing doesn't count.?

My mother is a Jehovah's Witness. I studied with them until I was 14 years of age. Actually, I had it forced down my throat until I became so "rebellious" that I was finally permitted to make my own religious decisions. Growing up it was extremely difficult not being able to participate in any holiday activities, not having birthday presents, or cakes, or parties, or even birthday recognition. Having to leave class at school in 2nd and 3rd grade because they were having a party! Being dragged door to door (them knocking on my door may not count, but being forced to do it at the ages of 6-13 certainly does) watching other kids eating cereal and watching cartoons in their pajamas and I'm dressed for church knocking on the door with my weirdo religious fanatic mother. It is still difficult for me around this time of year. Trying to reconcile in my mind all the issues associated with my Santa deprived childhood. Whew, I needed to get that off my chest! If I had more space, I could tell ya' a million more.


Everyone else is wrong. This has nothing to do with water. The sky is blue because as the light waves pass trhough the air they collide with molecules, effectively scattering the blue wavelenghts of light. This is demonstated by the fact that the sky at lower angles appears more blue, because there is more air that the light must travel through.


I think every female has a certain amount of discharge its the bodys way of getting the bad stuff out I get it every once in a whoile not everyday or all the time you shouldnt be worried unless its a fuuny color or has a bad smell then that would concern me I first notriced it when I was 17 I had no clue what it was and asked my mom she said that it was normal I also asked my two sisters and they said they get it also every once in a while sometimes its heavier right before I get my period and if your ferlile it will be clear and have a slimy texture almost like a sringy not like texture yea I think its groos but its all part of life


You can put some bounce sheets thru hair. Use static guard. Use an antifrizz serum. I like to use hand lotion after i rubbed it into my hands. You can use a metal coat hanger as well. Use conditioner in the hair as well. I would advise to put on sweaters before drying hair, when you pull it over head the electricity is alot. Good luck!

Is is true that the water in a toilet flows the opposite direction in the southern hemisphere?

No!  Yet more bad science frequently stated in classrooms around the world.  Students in science classes are often told that the coriolis effect causes water spiral out the toilet and drains in opposite directions in different hemespheres.  This is not true.\n\nCyclones (tornadoes, hurricanes, typhoons, etc) DO spiral in opposite directions in the two hemespheres as a result of the coriolis effect, counter-clockwise in the northern hemisphere, and clockwise in the southern hemisphere.


I believe your best option is to obtain your bachelors degree in accounting/finance.  Inherently, this is a more attractive degree due to the amount of education obtained.  Furthermore, any respectable company will require a bachelors degree for a financial analyst position.\n\nWhile the other two options are not bad, they will not help you greatly so I would do them only if it is in addition to the second bachelors degree.  Passing the CPA exam without the work experience will not obtain you your certification, which is the true "resume value" so you would have only passed a test and would have an interest dinner conversation piece at best.\n\nThe masters degree in accounting is also nice as a supplement to your bachelors degree, but entirely unnecessary.  Most firms/corporations you talk with are not interested in a graduate degree unless it is specifically applicable to the position, which for a financial analyst position it is not.  \n\nThose are just my thoughts.. :-)


Should the United States, Canada, and Mexico eliminate their borders and become one large country?

Good question.  It may sound nice to unite with our neighbors, but it's hard to see many advantages to doing that over just expanding NAFTA.  Language, culture, and national identity are strong incentives for most nations to go it alone.\n\nFor America, eliminating the border with Mexico would mean increasing the flow of poorer migrants into western and southwestern states and possibly exposing the nation to terrorists who may slip in through Central America.\n\nFor Canada, it would mean sacrificing its national identity and independence, and subjugating itself to the will of its bigger and meaner neighbor.  And what about its free healthcare system?\n\nIt's not easy to merge democracies.  The EU is moving in that direction, but it's struggling with issues of accepting its poorer Eastern European neighbors, and it can't even agree on a single Constitution.

The energy that was stored in your body dissipates into the atmosphere, your body begins the process of decay, people who cared about you mourn you for a bit, you are either cremated or filled with embalming fluid after your organs and blood are removed, the rest of the world moves on with life and death.  Pretty much the same thing that happens to everyone...


what is the square root of a negative number?

The square root of a negative number is an imaginary one.  The square root of -1 is known as i.  Negative square roots work out like positive ones, only with the i, so SqRoot(-4) = 2i and SqRoot(-64) = 8i.

Why global warming can cause ice-age like the movie "The Day After" depicted?

Global warming\nFrom Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia that anyone can edit\nJump to: navigation, search\n \nGlobal mean surface temperatures 1856 to 2004 \nMean temperature anomalies during the period 1995 to 2004 with respect to the average temperatures from 1940 to 1980Global warming is an increase in the average temperature of the Earth's atmosphere and oceans. The term is also used for the more specific scientific theory of anthropogenic global warming, which states that much of the recent observed (and projected) global warming is human-induced and the result of a strengthened greenhouse effect caused by man-made increases in carbon dioxide (through the burning of fossil fuels and deforestation) and other greenhouse gases. The natural greenhouse effect keeps the Earth 30 °C warmer than it otherwise would be; adding carbon dioxide to an atmosphere, with no other changes, will make a planet's surface warmer. Current research tries to uncover more details, e.g. about positive and negative feedback mechanisms, to allow a more precise quantification of the effects of global warming.\n\nTemperature change is just one aspect of the broader subject of (human-induced) climate change. The scientific opinion on climate change, as expressed by the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and explicitly endorsed by the national science academies of the G8 nations, is that the average global temperature has risen 0.6 ± 0.2 °C since the late 19th century, and that "most of the warming observed over the last 50 years is attributable to human activities". A small minority of qualified scientists contest the view that humanity's actions have played a significant role in increasing recent temperatures. Uncertainties do exist regarding how much climate change should be expected in the future, and a hotly contested political and public debate exists over what actions, if any, should be taken in light of global warming.\n\nBased on basic science, observational sensitivity studies, and the climate models referenced by the IPCC, temperatures may increase by 1.4 to 5.8 °C between 1990 and 2100 [1]. This is expected to result in other climate changes including rises in sea level and changes in the amount and pattern of precipitation. Such changes may increase extreme weather events such as floods, droughts, heat waves, and hurricanes, change agricultural yields, or contribute to biological extinctions. Although warming is expected to affect the frequency and magnitude of these events, it is very difficult to connect any particular event to global warming.


What is a bad hair day & have you ever had one?

The name itself explains the meaning. You aren't this dumb,are you?

To me, sexy is confidence, respect for himself and others, and to be motivated to pursue his dreams and goals.  A man who is authoritive, yet is willing to learn and be taught, listens well, has high personal goals, and I liked how someone said must have all of his teeth, is a sexy man to me.

Does the first amendment protect the consequences of free speech?

You have freedom of speech in the US, criminally you cannot be charge with a crime speaking your mind. The only thing you cannot say is Fire in a public place and that you are going to kill our presdent, those two thing are illegal to say.\n\nNow civilly, you can be brought to court for saying lies (slander) or damaging statements about people that affected them in some way. \n\nThere are very limited consquences for using your right to free speech.

You can use an ethernet cable to hook the Xbox to a hub or switch, or even directly into your router. If you have a wireless network up and running, then you could purchase a wireless bridge of the flavor of wireless you're using (B, G, or A), and hook that into the back of the Xbox with an ethernet cable.


how to find if someone has a public profile on another site?(exa.. dateing or other email sites or name)?

first of all it is hard, but what is harder is if you find the one you love does have personal profiles running! so think about that before you start digging.  I had a boyfriend that I too was wondering if he was running personals on line and so what I did was went to some different single sites and started searching them out.  most sites give you the chance to limit your search to age location smoking/non  I put in all his info and started searching.  I bet I found him at least five times.  I am no hacker and this takes time and yes it gets old. but If you have the feeling someone is running a personal and leaving you in the dark about it, chances are your right.  happy trails


I'm an attractive 24-year-old girl. Lots of people tell me so. How do I get my boyfriend's sex drive back?

Don't look elsewhere, this is actually pretty normal.    Try talking to him and telling him that you'd like to be more intimate.  DOn't make things into a chore, like "eat, drive to movies, blah, sex"... Usually, I find that a good makeout session will be enough to rev up your latent sex drives!


how do I create an rss feed for my own website?

what does it mean when a man calls you a mashugana in an affectionate way?

Its just a cute thing.  I had an aunt that called my cousin the same thing, and she always had a twinkle in her eye when she said it!  I think she meant it kinida like, ' You're crazy, but I love you, anyway'. It was when my cousin would do something silly for attention.

can animals and plants be farmed in the ocean?

Yes some plants and animals are farmed in the oceans. Sea weed such as kelp and many shell fish such as oysters and mussles are being farmed today. There are also hatcheries. These are places where some fish are born then let loose in the wild where they return to spawn. Some hatcheries raise fish till they are old enough to "harvest", then put to market.

What is the best AMD64 CPU for multitasker/gamer?

I highly recommend the Athlon 64 X2 3800+ dual core processor if you are thinking of multitasking. Each core is based pretty much on the Venice core, and has 512 KB L2 cache. Each core runs at 2.0GHz, which is the same speed as the 90 nanometer process Athlon 64 3200+.\nFor about the same price, the best single core processor is the Athlon 64 4000+, with the San Diego core. It has 1MB of L2 cache. This is likely a better gaming processor than the X2 3800+, because it has has a 400MHz speed advantage in one thread. It also has a 1MB L2 cache.\nCurrently, all mainstream games are single threaded, meaning that they can't utilize the capabilities that dual core processors have. The dual core processor will perform very nicely in the environment of your operating system, but it won't have an advantage in gaming. Most people predict that multi-threaded PC games will become more common in the next few years, but there is a good chance they will do nicely on older single threaded systems at lower speeds.\nWhen it comes to games, your graphics card is far more important than the speed of your processor. Normal multitasking benefits most from the processor.\nOverall, I would recommend the Athlon 64 X2 3800+.


Last New Years Eve was horrible...Can you give me some ideas as to where to go this year? something fun!!! =)?

does anyone know if there are amy horse stables around or in Interlachen Fl, and if there is what is the name?


Me and other local customer computer builders.  Big brand name companies cut too many corners.  For all the computer systems I build, I'm willing to make a cheap custom system for someone, but I do *not* use crappy quality parts.\n\nMost systems built by big brand name companies will have some good quality parts and other stuff that is total crap.  I've worked on a lot of brand name systems, and the modems, motherboards, network cards, sound cards, and lots of other components tend to be inferior to parts that only cost a few dollars more.\n\nBig companies are all about their bottom line.  I'm about making a little money but more importantly building a quality computer system. They don't care if there is a modem that is $2 more that is 10x better than the piece of crap they put in. They just care that they saved $2000 on 2000 computers they put together.

yes I definitely think you should bring your Bible to school. It's our job as Christians to share the Gospel to those we are around, so yes, you should share your beliefs. When you get criticized for it, just pray for God to give you strength. He will help you through it.


If a Hydrogen atom contains a neutron, it is still a form of Hydrogen?

Yes.  If a hydrogen atom contains one neutron it is called deuterium.  If it has two neutrons it is called tritium.  Dueterium and tritium are just different isotopes of hydrogen, just like you can have carbon-12 with 6 neutrons or carbon-14 with 8.  Hydrogen with no nuetrons is far more abundant in nature than hydrogen with no neutrons.  Trituim is radioactive and breaks down over time.


What can you do when you have an aching toothache (wisdom tooth that needs to be pulled) and no insurance?

Go to the dentist!  a wisdom tooth could cause an infection that could make you very very ill.  A dentist will only charge you a couple hundred $'s for extraction and if you tell them ahead of time, they will take payments.\n\nYou could find a dental school in your area, they may do it for a fraction of the cost, but you are getting people who have no experience, and the pain level could be worse.

What do you imagine your afterlife to be?

I believe that I will have no afterlife.\n\nOr rather, I believe this: I cannot imagine a god so cruel as to condemn me to an eternally unchanging afterlife. Sure, I can imagine enlightenment that could last a long, long time--it would be interesting to explore the universe and unlock its mysteries, or to reincarnate over and over as different beings, up to a point--but I cannot imagine any existence for eternity without it becoming horrible.\n\nAnd thus, since I cannot believe in a god so cruel, I believe that either there will be no afterlife at all, or there will be no afterlife for the being that I consider to be "me." In other words, if what I become after my death can somehow find fulfillment in an eternal afterlife, then it won't be "me" and therefore not worth worrying about.\n\nI'm young--around 40--but don't see any reason to want an afterlife. I certainly want to not-die in this life, though. I find this life just fine, and would like to experience a lot more of it. I just don't want eternity.


should I rent or buy a home in California?

I agree with Angel. \n\nIt depends if you like living in CA...\n\nBuying is always better if you can afford to. You will build equity in your home and also enjoy nice tax breaks. It's basically "forced" savings :)\nRenting is basically paying someone else's mortgage. \n\nIt's always better to buy the smallest home in the best neighborhood...as opposed to the best house in the worst neighborhood.

wat is mechanical engineering n wat s the best university in US for this field?

You should know what type of engineering career you want in order to find the best enginnering school for you; it may not necessarily be the "Best School."\nThings may have changed but long ago I was told that MIT was the best but in their undergraduate school you did all the work and the Profs merely guided you.  In other universities you may be almost spoon fed but will receive a standard marketable engineering education.  One Prof said that MIT was so competitive that you must have all A's to get in; but there may be students there who are ten times smarter and willing to work ten times harder and are one hundred time more effective (probably an exageration but you get the point).  Many students dropped out I was told because they were not used to not being at the top.\n\nThen certain excellent schools such as Brown may be more theoretical than practical (probably by emphasis) than are other schools.  For example a Brown student might be more interested in what is happening to the molecules within a loaded beam to make a better beam; while a more practical applications school might emphasize how to load the beam and will it fail design specs.\n\nI studied mechanical engineering at NU in Boston and had a Co-Op job at a shipyard, where they had almost everything mechanical you could wish to have in mechanical engineering heaven and more.  That included sea trials on conventional and nuclear surface ships and work with the designers.  I paid my entire tuition once based on only two weeks of overtime (14 days/ 12hr per day) and graduated with money in the bank rasther than debt.  My highly satisfying career included almost 30 years as a Test Engineer (plus Design and Site engineering supervision) working on marine steam plants).\n\nHope you find what is best for you.  Good luck.


The biggest known star is the Pistol Star.Its size is about 100 times the Sun!It is ten million times brighter than the sun.It is also largest in terms of volume.   Born up to three million years ago, the Pistol Star may have weighed up to 200 times the mass of the Sun before shedding much of its weight in violent eruptions that began about 4,000 to 6,000 years ago.The Pistol Star is invisible to the naked eye because it is hidden 25,000 light-years away behind great dust clouds in the center of our Milky Way Galaxy.It is located in Pistol Nebula in the centre of Milky Way Galaxy.

Why does the Libertarian party not make a serious bid for the presidency?

why is aniline more reactive towards aromatic halogenation than acetanilide?

The free electrons in aniline are more available to "pump negative charge" into the aromatic system than acetanilide, where the positively charged carbon in the acetyle group draws the charge outward, lessening the activation effect.


i don't like pocketpc or blackberry. what's the next thing i can use instead of a treo 650?

Based on your requirement for Good Technology, the only other choice you have is the Nokia E61 which is coming out 1st quarter of next year. However, right now it seems to be posed only for released in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa but not the United States. The E61 is a Series 60 Symbian phone so maybe in the future Good will offer its software for the popular 6682 or N70 (both of which are also power by Series 60), but I'm not sure if they have enough memory/power to support Good (or whether they're actually the run the correct version of software suitable for use with Good). Either way you'll have to wait if you hate Windows Mobile, Blackberry, and Palm OS.


Can men who have cheated change their ways?

They can if they want to. Unfortunately, if they do it once, they'll do it again. It shows a character flaw that they alone need to work out. The only way you can help him overcome his tendancy to stray is to let him know you'll not put up with it in your relationship. It's a deal-breaker of the first kind. Without trust, it's really hard having any kind of meaningful relationship. Not impossible, just difficult. It can be worked through, but both people have to want to work through it, with the cheating spouse working hard to restore trust in their relationship. <*)))><

I'm in the hospital (Johns Hopkins).  How do I keep annoying people from finding my room number?

I would let the nurses know that you don't want any visitors, and don't want anyone to know you are in the hospital. They should be able to make a note of it and not release the information to people on the phone.


CAN I LEGALLY GET RID OF CREDIT CARD DEBT ???????????????

Credit cards are "non-secured" loans. Meaning the money they lend you through MasterCard or Visa is not tied to any collateral. If you stop paying on the debt the credit card company can not do anything but rate you as a bad risk in the credit reporting agency. Basically you get a bad credit rating that won't go away for up to 7 years after you pay the debt off. If you can live with the bad credit report than just stop paying them. You can still get a car loan, but you will pay a high rate of interest because of the bad credit report. You can still buy a house, but the same applies, high interest rate for a high risk loan. One way or another (pay the debt off or pay high interest rates) you end up paying more than a person with a good credit report. Another alternative is bankruptcy which is an awesome tool when used correctly. It is a tool that many millionaires and billionaires use to their advantage while most working people scorn the legal precedence. If you have more debt than income, bankruptcy is for you. Don't empty your savings and retirement accounts trying to keep up, just go file. Erase the debt and start over. You will have a high risk credit report for up to 10 years but within a year you can start building a good credit profile to shorten the high risk time. It's all about the capitalism!

does sleeping with others wife is wroung?

You've gotta be the biggest moron on the YAHOO! Answers site to have asked this question.\n\nFor the heck of it, the answer is YES, IT IS F*****G WRONG!\n\nNow choose this as the most gratifying, "best" answer and leave us all in peace.


Quite possibly, NO. This will depend a bit on what your University and State require as "good academic standing". Generally speaking they are likely to require a 2.0 on a 4.0 scale or better. If you do not meet that, you may still be able to have temporary eligibility on a probationary level. Meaning, you will be placed on academic probation until you reach 2.0 or better. During that time if you continue to slip, you will likely lose all eligibility. \n\nContact your financial aid office for specifics for your location. Meanwhile, you should start taking a good look at yourself and your study habits that have brought you to this point. College life is great for having a good time, but eventually you have to come out the other side and make something of yourself.\n\nGood Luck

In rewinding an audio or video tape, why does the tape wind up faster at then end than at the beginning?

The drive reel (the one pulling the tape from the other reel) is always spinning at the same number of rotations per minute (RPM).  The amount of tape reeled in on each rotation is equal to Pi times the radius of the reel times 2 (3.14*r*2).  As the tape is reeled in the radius of the reel increases as the tape winds around it.  That increases the radius of the the reel which make which means it takes in more tape with each rotation.  Since the rotation is at a constant RPM, the tape being pulled to the reel will keep speeding up.

what do u when you have strip throat and u don't wanna go 2 the doctor?

Strep throat will go away in 3 to 7 days with or without treatment. However, strep throat is still treated with antibiotics even if they do not speed recovery. Antibiotics kill the strep bacteria, shorten the time you are contagious, and reduce the risk of complications, such as the infection spreading to other parts of your body. Drink plenty of fluids and increase humidity (moisture in the air) in your home to help keep your throat moist. Herbal teas formulated for colds may help relieve symptoms. \nTake nonprescription medications to relieve a painful sore throat and reduce fever.

The name Palestine refers to a region of the eastern Mediterranean coast from the sea to the Jordan valley and from the southern Negev desert to the Galilee lake region in the north. The word itself derives from "Plesheth", a name that appears frequently in the Bible and has come into English as "Philistine". Plesheth, (root palash) was a general term meaning rolling or migratory. This referred to the Philistine's invasion and conquest of the coast from the sea. The Philistines were not Arabs nor even Semites, they were most closely related to the Greeks originating from Asia Minor and Greek localities. They did not speak Arabic. They had no connection, ethnic, linguistic or historical with Arabia or Arabs.

Why do we drive on a park way and park on a driveway?

By definition a driveway is really a private road that connects to the public street system.  Today, these 'roads' are usually short, but the name sticks.  We park our cars on them because, after having 'driven' the 'way' to the private house, we would obviously have to stop when we arrived.  We drive on parkways because the 'park' of parkway is not the same word as 'park' meaning to stop.  A parkway is defined as broad road usually marked with scenery and a landscaped island.  Scenery? Landscaping?  Sounds a lot like a 'park', as in the recreation space.  Thus we drive on parkways because they are glorified ('park' like) road (Latin 'via' = road, and 'via' is also related to the word 'way', hense a 'parkway' literally a 'park-like road').  Hope this helps.

In terms of forces,when does a nucleus become radioactive?

Like charges repel, right?\nA nucleus is full of like charges and it takes a lot of force to hold them together.  This is "the strong force".  If a nucleus is big enough, like uranium, that balance is pushed to the ragged edge so chunks break off.  Hence, radiation.\nThats the simple version, but you get the pic.

Why aren't birds electrocuted when they perch on electric wires attached to telephone poles?

Electric current flows between two points, if the points have different potentials. When a bird touches a wire, the bird will have the same potential as the wire.\n\nIf the bird reaches two wires at the same time, there can be different potentials, so the bird can be 'electrocuted'. That's why the wires need to be far enough from each other.\n\nIf somebody reaches the wire and the ground at the same time, there can also be different potentials... That's why the wires need to be far enough from the ground.


Could there be such a thing as the Neuro-Critical-Mass ???

There are a few questions here, let me unravel them from one another:\n\n"How can an object feel pain?" - This is the question of consciousness, and there's not a particularly good answer to it. I'd recommend asking in Philosophy, rather than Physics, to try to get a detailed answer to that question. Also, I'd recommend doing quite a bit of reading.\n\n"Is there a limit to add neurons?" "Nature only gave us 100 billion neurons. Why?" - The very short answer to this is that everything you add to an organism increases the amount of growing it needs to do, and the amount of energy it needs. We already have an incredibly long, incredibly helpless childhood. At some point, the reward for adding more neurons - which is presumably more memory, more pattern-matching ability, or something similar - became less beneficial to survival than the reward for becoming adult and self-sufficient sooner. At that point, there's no reason for the brain to get bigger - it's doing the best that it can.\n\n"Is there a critical point??" - I'd have to say no. What you're asking about is the idea of a disembodied consciousness. If consciousness can exist without a body, then there's no reason to believe that adding more neurons will help. If consciousness requires a body, then there's no way to get beyond the body - more neurons might increase the capabilities of the brain, but not produce a sudden, critical change like the one you describe in nuclear fission.\n\nThe attached wikipedia link may be a good place to begin studying the philosophy of consciousness - it seems like the answers you're looking for might be in that field.\n\nGood luck, and happy learning.

Strategic planning is a disciplined, creative process for determining how to take your organization from where it is today to where you wish it to be in the future.\n\nStrategic planning is fundamentally a decision making process, based on asking simple (but deep) questions, analyzing the range of answers, and choosing among them: \n\n            What do we do?                        Where are we going? \n            Where are we now?                   How will we get there? \n            How did we get here?                When will we get there? \n            Why are we in business?            What will it cost? \n\n    This process encompasses the entire spectrum of issues an organization faces, ranging from the big ones of who you are, what you do, and what your corporate values are to the smaller but equally important ones that connect the focus on the future with the work that must be performed soon to move the organization forward. \n  \n\n\nWHAT ARE ITS BENEFITS?\n\n    The benefits of strategic planning are manifold since it: \n\nAsks and answers questions of key importance to the organization \nProvides a framework for decision making throughout the organization \nReveals and clarifies future opportunities and threats \nSets specific objectives for achievement \nProvides a basis for measuring performance \nServes as a channel of communication \nDevelops a team which is focussed on the organization's future \nProvides managerial training \n    The above benefits can be encapsulated in a single statement: \nStrategic planning aligns the total organization – people, processes, and resources – with a clear, compelling, and desired future state. \n \n\nWHAT ARE ITS LIMITATIONS?\n\n    While the benefits are manifold, unfortunately so so its limitations: \nThe future is uncertain and might differ substantially from expectations on which parts of the plan may be built. \nThere will be internal resistance to formal planning due to multiple factors: \nInformation flows, decision making, and power relationships will be perturbed. \nConflicts within organization are exposed. \nCurrent operating problems tend to drive out long-term planning efforts. \nThere are risks and fears of failure. \nNew demands will be placed on managers and staff. \nMost people wish to avoid uncertainty. \nPlanning is difficult, messy, hard work. \nPlanning is expensive - in time and money. \nThe completed plan limits choices and activities for the organization in the future.

Why do people hate each other without a reason?

because they're afraid of judgement.  they judge others because they feel judged themselves.  i hate people that don't like me, but i don't try to, it just occurs that way.  we can supress or express our hate, but it's still there.  people hate as often as they love.  the end... i suppose.

what were wilt chamberlin's stats when he scored 100 points?

Chamberlin scored 100 points on March 2, 1962. Here are his stats:Chamberlain played the entire 48 minute game and by halftime had scored 41 points on a combined 14 of 26 shooting from the field and an uncharacteristic 13 of 14 from the free throw line. For a career, Chamberlain only shot 51 percent from the line, yet for the game he would make 28 of his 32 attempts. Most impressively, Chamberlain would finish the game with 25 rebounds.

Depends on how you set it up.\n\nThe result will range from a more complete oxidation of waste to ozone saturating water and start to leave water phase.\n\nOzone is a toxic gas, - avoid ozone release.\nTreated waste will qualitatively not be more harmful than for a "normal" ozone dosis. The quantities of ketones, aldehydes, acids and carbon dioxides will increase and harmfullness depends on quantity.

my two year old son doesnot sleep throughout the night, is this normal?

Yes, of course! Just make sure he doesn't have caffeine or close to bed, maybe try cutting out bedtime snacks? Or maybe something like carrot sticks or something unfun, lol. Also, make sure he knows it's bedtime, don't just allow him as well as the house to run in full gear right up until bedtime, or else he won't sleep. Maybe try bedtime stories or something that let's him know, 'it's bedtime, it's time to relax and go to sleep'.

What is the best way to find the owner of a local business? (hopefully it's fast and cheap too.)?

Check with the Secretary of State for the state that the business is located in.  http://www.sba.gov/hotlist/businessnames.html  This page links to pages (some outdated links), but you want to see the Secretary of State filings.  Usually you can track down who owns a business, and where they receive legal notices (the legal agent).  Often this is the owner.


How many Maltesers does it take to cover a football pitch?

Darn, I just ate a bunch of maltesers and I don't have any left to measure it. Let's say they're 2cm, but you can measure and recalculate if needed.\n\nAccording to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Football_%28soccer%29_field#Pitch_dimensions_and_markings , the length of pitch for international matches should be in the range 100 m - 110 m (110-120 yards) and the width should be in the range 65 m - 75 m (70-80 yards).\n\nSo, the number of maltesers also depends on the size of the field, and on the pattern you use for covering it. Let's assume a middle size: 105m*70m and a square pattern, like this:\nooo...\nooo...\nooo...\n...\n...\n\nThen, obviously, you will need (105/0.02)*(70/0.02) maltesers, that is 18,375,000. Replace 0.02 with the actual size if different.\n\nNote: a triangular pattern is the densest, so it covers the field better, but it needs more maltesers too, and it's a little bit harder to calculate ;)

About how much money does a psychologist make in a year?

The purpose of life is to find the answer to that question and to fullfill it. If you're a Christian it would be to accept God's gift of salvation and learn to love and devote your life to others.

in oklahoma, if you are injured at work, can they stop your insurance through your job while you are on comp?

I'm no expert on Work Comp in OK (I do know they have some silly rules) but it would seem that they cannot stop your health insurance. You aren't on COBRA. You are still considered an employee and thus if the company pays for its employees health insurance then they must pay for your insurance regardless if you injured. Now, with that being said, what does your employee handbook say about leaves of absence. I would consult HR at your companay.

can aids or hiv infected by licking or touching vaginal or sollowing waginal fluid of a infected woman?

Yes. Any exchange of bodily fluids CAN result in the transmission of HIV or AIDS, although the risk is smaller when it is oral. \n\n"HIV is found in varying concentrations or amounts in blood, semen, vaginal fluid, breast milk, saliva, and tears. "\n- http://www.cdc.gov/hiv/pubs/facts/transmission.htm\n\n"The risk of HIV transmission from an infected partner through oral sex is much smaller than the risk of HIV transmission from anal or vaginal sex. Because of this, measuring the exact risk of HIV transmission as a result of oral sex is very difficult."\n-http://www.avert.org/orlsx.htm#q3

Nameservers, or DNS Servers, are servers that provide mapping between internet names (like "answers.yahoo.com") and IP addresses (like "209.191.70.167").  They are essential for the operation of the internet as we know it.  Without name servers, you would have to know the IP address of every website you wanted to browse or every mail server you wanted send mail to or through.\n\nThere are a variety of name records that are stored on a DNS server.  They include:\n\nSOA -- Start of Authority records that tell you information about how to reach a domain's servers and owner\n\nA -- Address records that do a direct map of name to address\n\nCNAME -- Alias records that tell you that, for example, "Answers.yahoo.com" really means you need to look up "web-vip1.search.mud.yahoo.com".\n\nPTR -- Reverse address records that tell you what name is associated with a specific address.\n\nAnd, the one you asked about:\n\nMX -- Mail Exchanger records.  MX records tell you, in order, which mail server handles inbound e-mail for a specific domain.  When you send e-mail to, for example, bgates@microsoft.com, your mail server checks the mx records for microsoft.com.  Starting with the one that has the lowest priority number, it tries to deliver the e-mail to that box.  If that box is down, or it gets back a non-fatal error message, then it moves to the box with the next highest priority number.\n\nThe sources will tell you MUCH more information.
