Broncos or Patriots?  Anyone have a good inside track?

The Broncos beat the Patriots when they met earlier in the season, however the Patriots defense is peaking at the perfect time and they are playing like the defending champions they are. If Tedy Bruschi is in the game the Pats win big with at least two Plummer picks. Either way, Patriots play Indy in the AFC championship game.

Can my ex spouse collect 50% of my social security after I die even though I have remarried?

Following are the eligibility requirements for divorced spouse's benefits:\n\nDIVORCED SPOUSE: A person who is divorced after at least 10 years of marriage may qualify for benefits on the former spouse's Social Security record. To receive benefits as a divorced spouse, the person must be at least age 62 and his/her former spouse must be entitled to retirement or disability benefits. To receive benefits as a surviving divorced spouse, the person must be at least age 60, or at least age 50 and disabled. \nINDEPENDENTLY DIVORCED SPOUSE: Independently divorced spouse's benefits may be payable based on a former spouse's Social Security record if the former spouse is eligible for retirement benefits but has not applied for them. The person applying as an independently entitled divorced spouse must be at least age 62. The divorced wife or husband also must have been married to the former spouse for at least 10 years and divorced from the worker for at least 2 years. \n\nREMARRIAGE\n\nBenefits cannot be paid to a person applying as a worker's divorced spouse if the person has remarried, unless the latter marriage ends (whether by death, divorce, or annulment). Benefits for an entitled divorced spouse are terminated upon remarriage unless the marriage is to a person entitled to certain types of Social Security auxiliary or survivor's benefits. Benefits can be paid to a person applying as a surviving divorced spouse who has remarried if:\n\n--He/she remarries at age 60 or later; or\n--He/she remarries at age 50 and after becoming disabled.\n\n(If a person is already entitled to benefits as an aged or disabled surviving divorced spouse and remarries, benefits continue regardless of the person's age at the time of remarriage.)\n\n\nA divorced spouse or surviving divorced spouse who is entitled to benefits other than those on their former spouse's record cannot receive both benefits in full. For example, if a divorced spouse worked under Social Security and is entitled to higher benefits based on their own earnings, they would receive benefits based on their record only. Also, the benefits paid to a divorced spouse will have no effect on the benefit amount paid to other beneficiaries on the record.\n\nNOTE: The provisions for a divorced spouse's or surviving divorced spouse's eligibility to Social Security benefits are set forth by Congress and contained in the Social Security Act and Regulations.\n\nIf you would like to receive an estimate of benefits you may receive as a divorced spouse or surviving divorced spouse, you may contact our representatives at our toll-free number, 1-800-772-1213. They may be able to provide you with this information over the telephone. If you prefer, you may visit one of our offices. You can get the address and directions to your nearest office from the Social Security Office Locator that is available on the Internet at: http://www.socialsecurity.gov/locator/

I have problems sleeping.  I will wake up at around 1-1:30 A.M. and have to really work hard to go to sleep.?

One thing I have found particulary helpful when waking in the night, is to NOT look at the clock. When I look at the clock, my body gets in a habit of waking that time every night. Also, another thing that works for me is trying not to think about being awake, and make sure not to start thinking about a lot of other things.


How can freedom of speech and censorship be in the same law book?

Freedom of Speech is not an absolute.  The Supreme Court along time ago decided obcenity is not protected speech.\n\nNow censorship is something that only the government can do.  Take the theaters that refused to carry that Brokeback Mountain.  That was a freemarkedt decision, where it would have affected the profits of the theater owners if he had run the film.  His property, his decision.  Now if the government stepped in then it should be banned that's censorship\n\nLike I said free speech isn't an absolute, you can't yell fire in a crowded theater, or anything that would put someone at risk.

want to know more about when you are mine?

if by you, you mean, society as a whole, then the answer is now. society is always ours. it is our heritage and birth-right. it serves us to its extent and we serve it just as well. we are all dependent-independent cells linked in a collective body that is society. we do as we wish but can do nothing without the rest of society to assist us. so if you want to know when we are yours, then the answer is definatelty now--but you are ours too!

Can slide shows made with windows moviemaker be burnt to a dvd disk?

Yes.\nYou will need a software that converts the video from the mpeg2 format\nto the special format required for DVD.\nThe best solution I know is TMPGEnc DVD Author. This program will\nallow the production of a DVD from standard mpeg-2 files in a few\nsimple steps.\nThe software is available (in a 30 days-trial version) at \n( http://www.pegasys-inc.com/en/download/tda16.html )\nJust install the software, create a new project, add the mpeg file(s),\nselect a menu for your DVD if you wish and select "Output".\nThe program then creates the necessary folders (which contain the .IFO\nand .VOB files).\nSometimes the software does not accept the resolution of mpeg-files if\nthey are out of the DVD specificatios. Don´t worry: all you have to do\nis record the file again from your camcorder using the correct\nresolution (screen size) Many programs used to extract data from\ncamcorders already use one of the standard DVD resolutions.\n\nI use NERO express to burn the files output by the software to DVD.\nSure other DVD burning software will do the same job.\n\nI hope this helps to solve your problem.


What do you think of the ban on religious symbols (mainly Muslim headscarves) in schools in France?

I think it's an incredibly stupid idea. Note the ban in schools applies as part of a wider bam in publically owned buildings. The supposed justification is that it forces everyone to be equal, and therefore encourages racial harmony by increasing interracial marriage, and the currently accepted model of a diverse society in other countries of "equal but different" is racist by acknowledging the differences.\n\nYou can't pass laws that tell people whether to fall in love or not. I'd say headscarves play little to no role in actually controlling attraction - they certainly don't stop me thinking somebody's pretty. And what on earth relevance does this line of thinking have to do with schools anyway?\n\nThis attitude in French society of refusing to acknowledge people's heritage is one of the reasons the riots started - while it wasn't the spark, it certainly was fuel for the fire. It's unreasonable to tell somebody to forget about their roots - the whole reason diverse societies are better is everyone brings something different to the table, and we should be celebrating this, not surpressing it.\n\nI also suspect that if Christians were the ones that felt they had a requirement to display a prominent symbol, the protests over the ban would have been such that it would have been unworkable. If a group is too small to make an electoral difference over an issue, politically they do not exist.


what do plus size women think of guys with a little extra weight?

I am a BBW and it's just a personal preference thing. I must first ask you what "a little extra weight" is? 10lbs? 20 lbs, 50 lbs? I myself like the man for the heart he has inside, and the way he treats me. These are the things that really matter most. If someone judges you based on your weight, it only proves how shallow they are. You are special just the way you are!


Does anybody know where to find...Safety goggles that are in fun colors (adult size) Blue,grn,orange,pink,red?

I was able to order different styles from most of the major catalogs. Try Fisher. I think I bought a red pair from them that were pretty cool.\n\nAlso, try ebay. I just got 582 items when I searched on "safety glasses." Browsing through quickly, I saw quite a few that were kind of cool. Lot of dorky ones too, but you might be able to find something you like. Have fun!

what's the best rolls for managing the young single girls in assembly line?


As far as stations buying their music.. If the station is in a higher ranking market the record labels will provide the music for free.  They are happy to get the exposure. Every station that plays music is required to pay a flat licensing fee to ASCAP/BMI (they are the companies that pay the artists "royalties" each time their song airs.)  Some smaller stations sometimes need to actually go out and purchase their music, stations can also subscribe to music services that will provide a basic music library, along with weekly updates.  They will not actually charge the stations for this service, they will do a "barter" service with the stations to place comercials on the stations in leu of chash payments.  I hope I am not confusing you more!  As far as CD's go, a vast number of stations don't even use them anymore.  A lot of stations use a "hard drive" music delevery doing away with all of the clutter of cd's.  Most stations are computer operated these days, a lot of the stations dont even have "live talent" in the studio anymore.  They accomplish this by a process of "Voicetracking".  The DJ does not even have to be in the same city as the station he or she is on.  Talent can e-deliver their voice-tracks to basically anywhere Via a computer.  I hope this helps you out a bit.... If it leaves you with more questions... feel free to e-mail me.  I would be happy to help out.


Do people really take Michael Moore seriously???  Why?

His humor, passion and drive accounts for a lot of his popularity. An Everyman from Flint chasing after corporate weasels makes for a pleasing scenario to most lower and middle class viewers. People distrust corporate America, so it's easier to put that trust in a fat slob that while he has his own blazing agenda, his teddy bear facade makes him easy to like and listen to.


Assets are anything which the firm owns or has title to.Firms may have fixed assets which are long-term assets - plant, machinery and equipment, but they also have assets which can be realised (cashed-in) quickly(in accounting terms-less than a year).\n\nThe current assets are therefore ones that can be quickly realised and change frequently. The main current assets are stock, debtors and cash.


I don't know what other religions believe, but as a christian, I believe that no,you can never lose your salvation. Jesus died on the cross for our sins,the end. Everything I have ever heard in sunday school and church is that you can never lose your salvation as long as you accept Jesus as your lord and savior, believe that he died for your sins, and that he is the only way to heaven,you are guaranteed to go to heaven when you die.

how do you know if you have high or low blood pressure?

First you have to have your blood pressure taken of course. Hypertension or high blood pressure is called the silent killer because it has few outward signs. The standards for blood pressure are set by the us Dept. of Health and Human Services and they are <120 over <80 is normal, 120-139 over 80-89 is pre-hypertensive, 140-159 over 90-99 is stage one hypertension and >160 over >100 is stage two hypertension. These pressures are over time so that a pattern develops, not a single reading. For more info. see the JNC7 Guidelines at http://www.nhlbi.nih.gov/guidelines/hypertension/express.pdf\nLow blood pressure or hypotension is usually seen as a symptom of another problem. Bradycardia (slow heart rate), bleeding, or septic shock are some examples. If you think you may have either it is very important that you speak to a doctor as both can be life threatening.

Do you have a problem with our government...........?

Well I can't say that I entirely disagree. One common arguement is that "Oh I can't afford to or I would." which is amusing. If someone couldn't make money in a capitalist country, I wonder how they'd do elsewhere...\n\nFor me, I don't pay much mind to it. I don't think that any government choices have too largely effected me and it doesn't seem they will. People can talk about losing family members in the war now days or whatever, but hey, people joined the military knowing the risk.\n\nGas prices suck, sure, but that's not only the US. In fact, the US has low prices comparitively. \n\nMedicare, retirement, etc. Well, yeah, but people are still living, and they made the decision not to get ahead in a country that was built on capitalism. \n\nI dunno, I think most people bitching don't really know what's going on. I like to make fun of the system, but for anyone well educated, the US is pretty easily the best place in the world to live. Best medical technology, schooling(post high school), etc.\n\nSince Bush got into office, what changes have we faced on a personal level? Gas prices, cigarette prices, aaaaaand . . . Yep.

what does "nobody can make you feel infrior without your permission" mean?

No one can MAKE you feel anything (except physical pain of course). If you're a professional dancer and some accountant who knows nothing about dance tells you you're terrible, you'll dismiss it because you don't value his opinion. But if an accomplished dancer who you respect says the same thing it might make you actually question your talents, and feel inferior. In this case you would have given the dancer, but not the accountant, permission to make to make you feel inferior.\n\nBut of course it might turn out that the dancer is old and bitter and wants to squash your potential by attacking your confidence. \n\nThe key is to develop a solid sense of who you are - both your strengths and weaknesses. If someone attacks something you know is a strength, it shouldn't bother you. And if they attack something you know is a weakness - that really shouldn't bother you either because you've accepted that this particular aspect is not your strongest.

What offices in the United States do I go to, to apply to immigrate to Canada?

you go to the nearest canadian consulate that does immigration services.  you can find the consulate closest to you at this page:\n\nhttp://www.dfait-maeci.gc.ca/world/embassies/menu-en.asp#u\n\nhowever, note the following:\n\n"Immigration services are only provided by Canadian offices in Buffalo, Detroit, Seattle, Los Angeles, New York, and Washington, D.C. Other Canadian offices in the United States do not provide visa and immigration services."\n\nfor information on how to immigrate, see the website of citizenship and immigration canada:\nhttp://www.cic.gc.ca/english/index.html\n\nnote that you may also want to hire an immigration lawyer here in the states, since they will be able to advise you on the process and let you know what your chances are of being accepted for different visas, etc.  search the web for immigration lawyer and your hometown.  often if you can't travel to the consulate to do all the work yourself, you can authorize your lawyer to take care of a lot of the legwork.

need help with statistics class......DESPERATE!!!!!!!!!?

Let me see if I can answer your question in English. :-)\n\nI'm sure you have an equation in your notes or book that you can just start plugging stuff into.  It probably looks like this:\n\ns = square root of (X - X bar)^2/(n-1)\n\nBut if you want to know why it works, keep reading.\n\nYou have a list of numbers.  First, you need to find the average, or mean, of those numbers, by adding them up and dividing by how many there were.\n\nNow, if you subtract each number from the mean, you get a new list of numbers.  These are the deviation scores, and tell you how far above or below average each number was.  If you add them up, you will get zero, because some of them are positive and some negative.  That's not very interesting, so we square them to make them all positive.  Then we add up all those squared deviation scores.\n\nYou probably got a pretty large number, and not the one we want, yet.  We want the Standard Deviation, which is sort of like the average deviation.  So just like you divide by the number of scores to get the average, you need to divide the sum of the squared deviation scores by something.  Sometimes we divide it by the number of scores, like you would think, but for complicated reasons it works better if you divide by one less than that.  So if you started with 5 numbers, divide by 4 now.  (Be sure to check your notes or your book to see what your teacher said you should divide by.)\n\nWe're still one step away.  The number you should have now is called the Variance.  It is also a measure of how spread out your numbers were, but it's bigger than we want.  Remember how we squared the deviation scores earlier?  Now we need to undo that by taking the square root.  What you get is the Standard Deviation you wanted.


What is the space provided for the file allocation table?

Wasted space, optimization, fragmented, defragmentation and slack. Terms that not too long ago had little or no meaningful relationship to computers, let alone hard drives, or any type of drive for that matter. File fragmentation, one of the vagaries of the FAT file system, has garnered considerably more attention in recent years with the advent of hard drive sizes above 1 GB in size. When hard drives were in the range of 40MB to 1GB, no one had a clue that their drives had wasted space. As a matter of fact, most were enthralled at the release of a 1GB hard drive. It wasn't until the mid-1990s, when hard drives began climbing above 2GB, did we realize that there was something wrong, yet we had no idea just what it was. Hard drives were not being divided into multiple partitions at that time, and after a period of continued use, users began noticing that large amounts disk space seemed to literally disappear. While on smaller drives, those below 1GB, this was barely noticeable, but on larger drives approaching 2GB, this amounted to hundreds of megabytes. As file fragmentation was more fully understood, and defragmentation tools began to develop, users finally understood the "why" behind the disappearing disk space. Shortly after the release of the FAT32 file system, the issue of fragmentation became less critical. Now, however, as hard drive sizes climb above the 80GB range, we begin revisiting the old terms such as wasted space, optimization, fragmented, defragmentation, and add a new one, "slack". As long as hard drives remained below the 30GB range, FAT 32 tended to keep everything cleaned up, but as we passed the 40 GB mark, even FAT 32 has its problems controlling slack.\n\nObviously this missing drive space isn't really gone, unless we're talking about damaged or lost clusters, at which point this missing drive space is actually unusable portions of the hard drive that need to be recovered with the appropriate disk utility. However, we're not discussing that aspect of missing drive space, we're discussing slack. This slack space is simply space wasted as a result of the cluster system that FAT file system uses. A cluster is the minimum amount of space that can be assigned to a file, and no file can use merely a part or piece of a cluster and a separate file use the remainder under the FAT file system. Essentially, when a file is assigned to a cluster, even if it were merely a single byte of data, the space assigned would rounded to an integer multiple equal to the cluster size itself. If you add to that file, gradually the entire cluster would be used until you reach the maximum size of that cluster. As soon as the file becomes larger than the capacity of that single cluster, even by a single byte, the additional byte is then allocated to another cluster, and the file's space usage will double, even though the file only increased in size by one byte.

If gays have rights, when will pedophiles share same rights? Bible forbids both, but US law protects gays.?

The reason homosexuals should have rights (but most don't anyway) is that there is no reason ASIDE from religious/moral beliefs to condemn them. There is no reasonable state interest in stopping homosexuality.\n\nFor pedophiles, on the other hand, the children they attempt to/actually commit sex acts with are harmed in a very real way. Thus, there is a reasonable state interest, beyond mere morality/religion, in limiting pedophiles' rights. The right of a child to not be violated outweighs that of a pedophile.

does anyone think that literature effects everyone's everyday life?

I'm sure many including myself will agree on the fact that literature affects one's life immensely. \nGood literature is not only a good sense of entertainment but also refines one's vocabulary and personality. They even add to knowledge as well as affect the views of a person. A person who is a fanatic of Sherlock Holmes will learn to analyse things deeply and will develop skills of perception and systematic thinking.\nMany people also picture themselves as one of the characters. It helps them to overcome troubles by being inspired. A good background in literature helps you learn how thinks were in the past, analyse the present and then shape the future. \nThere is a lot to learn fom Literature and believe me it is worth the time to read some Book.

1. Give rest to the part and elevation to reduce the swelling .  2.Appropriate antibiotic should be given. 3. Failure of the inflammatory swelling to subside within 48 to 72  hours suggests that an abscess has developed and it requires incision and drainage of pus.


What's the longest feature film ever made?  (Not counting documentaries.)?

Depending on your perspective but the Lord of the Rings could be the longest just because all three were shot at the same time and all three are pretty long so if you would watch all three back to back they would be about 9 hrs.

Why do I get"oe removed access to following unsafe attachments in your' mail I am using Outlook Express?

Outlook automatically blocks files with certain extensions based on the fact that they MIGHT contain viruses. This is a real pain in the butt for me because I teach intro to computers and my students can't send me their database assignments because Outlook blocks them as potentially unsafe. To unblock them, you have to tweak a Windows registry setting. I wish I were kidding about that.


Why will bread mold at room temperature but not in the refrigerator?

mould or any microorganisms require  various  enzymes to carry out difernt unction and these enzymes work best at a perticuklar temperatour if the temperatur goeslower or above the growh is hampered and thus wen the mould is kept in fridge their enzymes dont wrk to the maximum capacity their ability to wrk gets weeker and thus the grown is also slow...... i gess u  got the reuired explanaion

Whtch playoff game would you watch if you could only watch one and why?

If it's just for this weekend, I'd go with Denver/Pittsburgh. This is a great game, seeing two of the best playoff coaches face each other in Denver, where Jake the Snake will have trouble avoiding Blitzburgh, but the pressure will be on Big Ben and his ability to lead his team to Detroit.\n\nIf you mean the rest of the playoffs, I'd rather watch the Super Bowl, because it's the Super Bowl.


Why would non-horse people attack horse people when they have no personal knowledge?

People attack others for more reasons than we can think of.  It's just like any other topic - the people that know the least about a subject seem to be the most critical.  It's called lack of intelligence.


Pretty much what he is doing,\n1. checking you out\n2. flirting\n3. if you have feelings to them as well\nI think you should get to know him a little better before asking him to your birthday party.

When the image of a distant object is brought into focus in front of a person's retina, the defect is call

It's nearsightedness.  The convex lens formed by the eye's own lens and the curvature at the front of the eyeball determines the focal length.  A concave lens corrects the problem by increasing the focal length.


Why doesn't the buttons on my mouse work?

You probably need to adjust your mouse properties by going to Start > Control Panel and going to Mouse then go to the Buttons tab and there you should be able to adjust them.  My guess is the left click has been changed to open the right click options, if you don't want to manually fuss with changing it, you can just click the "Restore Defaults" button at the bottom and all should be as it was.\n\nSince your left click currently isn't working in order to open Mouse properties just left click on it (which is currently set as right click) and select Open.\n\nOkay, if you have been using System Restore (even if you haven't Windows puts in some restore points for you) you can try restoring your PC to an earlier time before you started having this problem.  If you recently updated the drivers that could very well be the problem (may not be but it could be) so either install the previous version of the driver or try using System Restore.  See if any of that works.


If a ball was traveling @ a constant speed around the inside of a circular structure is the ball accelerating?

Yes! There is centripetal acceleration on the ball.  It is actually accelerating in towards the center, but other forces keep it on the edge.


Does sign language vary in different countries like a spoken language?

Yes, there are many different sign languages. Signs that may make perfect sense in English can be bizarre in another. In particular, the different fingerspelling must be different for languages that do not use the Latin alphabet (Russian, Chinese, etc.) or that incorporate diacritics (French, German, etc). There are, in fact, many different sign languages used in the United States. There is for instance, Manually Coded English, a system of representing spoken English exactly in sign. One of the source below has a list of different sign languages, and information on many of them. There is also International Sign, also called Gestuno, International Sign Language and International Gesture. It is not a fully developed language like other nationality-specific sign languages (in fact it has no grammar), but was developed to enable deaf people from other countries to communicate with each other.


Why do women want to cover up their previous sex lives? unlike men.?

Well not going into details.  Women want their partener to think that they are the one, i.e. they are faithful to them and no one else.  \n\nAnd women like to jump to conclusions.  More women start thinking about marriage than men do in the beginning of a relationship.

i was talking to some one else dont worry?


what is the best way to rekindle a romance? something planned or on the spur of the moment?

In my opinion, if you want to rekindle a romance it has to be planned so it can be extra special. If he is a sports fan, take him to a special game and start there. If he is romantic, take him to a special hotel that has a jacuzzi and start there. I don't need to go into details. You know your man..If your rekindling, spur of the moment may not be a good thing cos he may get upset.


How does Islam effect many aspects of daily lines for muslims?

I will list the major effects of Islam on a Muslim's daily life.\n\nIslam requires Muslims to pray 5 times a day. Each prayer normally will take less than 10 minutes. Washing of face, both hands and legs are to be done before prayer. The prayer times are early morning, noon, evening, after sunset and night. \n\nAnother important thing is fast during ramzan month. Eating, drinking and sex is to be avoided from dawn to dusk during this month.\n\nA fixed portion of his/her wealth has to be given to charity each year.\n\nApart from these there are other moral and duties that a muslim has to observe, some are very general like enjoining kindness to youngers and respect for elders, dealing with justice even if it is against you or your group etc. Anything done as a service to others is seen as a good deed. Even removing obstacle from the road, smiling when you see others are all considered good deeds. \n\nI think this space is too small to enumerate all the aspects in detail. I have given only a brief idea.


i need to see my grandparents birth and death certificates?

There's a chance you can find them through www.Ancestry.com , You'd have to pay for it.  There is also a chance, depending on where and when they were born and died that you can obtain them through the town hall in the city where they were born.


If there is a birthday misprint on a marriage license is it still valid?

Yes, if the marriage was valid (that is, if the truth is not that you were underaged or otherwise married or something.) If it is just a misprint, it does not affect the validity of the marriage.


in a true relationship the love for each other grows and grows as time goes on. the compatibility becomes even more as the souls intertwine and become as one. the commitment becomes even stronger. that is the truth of it.

wat's a good university for an international student..?


I want to fix my credit.  Anyone have any tricks /techniques for getting things off my report?

If you don't already have one open a checking and savings account. it is best to go through a credit union they are better and safer in the means they won't screw you over like the others.  Get one or two credit cards and no more than that if you have more cancel them. Opening and closing credit card accounts will lower your credit a bit but in the long run it works to your benefit. I say to only have one or two because too much in credit card credits will also bring done your credit. Don't use them often but say charge dinner on it sometime and then always pay the bill the day it comes, pay all your bills this way. It shows responsiblity on your credit report. And don't look at you credit report more than once a year, it also lower your credit.

why can man not fly like a bird or bat? Is ther not the technology out there to do so?

Mamals (teradactyles) used to fly with leatherlike wings so it would seem that humans could also.  However human arm and chest muscles are not very suitable for flight.  As in the term pigeon or chicken breasted, birds have muscular chests that fascilitate a powerful downward pull on the wings.  Coonsider the shape of a turkey breast and the thick breastmeat there.  Still, the only way a turkey can soar with the eagles, is in their talons.  We would tire too easily, even with very light fake wings.


do you believe in relationships that start online?

I definately do. As long as both parties are being honest you get to know the real person. Most people judge by looks, but online you get to know their heart and soul. You can lust for someones body, but A true inner connection, now that's love.


Are you allowed to drink cola during your coffee break?

good question. that makes me wonder, "Do people at a tea factory get a coffee break?"


The main thing I would do is get my mind aff that subject. If you r always thinking about the break-up, then you will always be moping around. I recommend doing something physical like swimming or jogging etc. You could also paint or hang out with friends. Do you know someone who usually always makes you laugh? Hang out with that person. Try to be as happy as possible. Good luck!

how can you increase the drag of a falling egg and keep it from cracking?

Increase the drag, or resistance by enlarging the surface area. The parachute is a simple solution. \n\nHave you thought of making a whirly-bird/helicopter-type device to slow down the fall of the egg? Balsa wood angled correctly should be able to produce simple a rotary blade that would slow down the decent of your egg. Keep me informed.


Why is it so hard for men to approach? And do good men really hang out in bars waiting for miss right?

In my opinion, there are 2 reasons men are hesitant to approach a woman.\nA. The women are with a group of close friends. This would mean If the guy gets rejected, there will be a large audience to watch the whole thing.\nB. The woman is beautiful. Men think this woman can have anyone she wants, why would she care for me?


Has anyone ever read the book "The Fountainhead" by Ayn Rand?

Yes, I read it. Objectivism is absurd, we live in a society and depend on society for our substistence, we can not turn our back to society as she proposes.


whats happens with egg pressure and how much can it take how do i messure it? mike?

The pressure within a chicken egg may be rather nominal, because eggs breathe without lungs.  Oxygen is free to diffuse through the shell.  Water is nearly incompressible, the effect even seven miles down at the bottom of the sea is nil.  Gas is highly compressible and you have to halve the volume to double the pressure at constant temperature, per the perfect gas laws.\n\nMost boiled eggs are not perfectly ovalic because there is an air space within the shell.  That air space would resist any increase in "hydraulic" pressure and excess gas should diffuse out of the shell.\n\nOf course a spoiled egg may build up pressure due to rapid decomposition and an egg shell would be fairly strong to retain it.  Never microwave eggs because they may build up steam pressure and make a real mess.  Early microwave machines had perforated plastic doors rather than solid glass and I recall one unhappy fellow who received a polkadot egg spattered shirt.  Good luck.


A group for which the elements commute (i.e.,  for all elements  and ) is called an Abelian group. All cyclic groups are Abelian, but an Abelian group is not necessarily cyclic. All subgroups of an Abelian group are normal. In an Abelian group, each element is in a conjugacy class by itself, and the character table involves powers of a single element known as a group generator. \n\nNo general formula is known for giving the number of nonisomorphic finite groups of a given group order. However, the number of nonisomorphic Abelian finite groups  of any given group order  is given by writing  as \n\n (1) \n\nwhere the  are distinct prime factors, then \n\n (2) \n\nwhere  is the partition function. This gives 1, 1, 1, 2, 1, 1, 1, 3, 2, ... (Sloane's A000688). \n\nThe smallest orders for which , 2, 3, ... nonisomorphic Abelian groups exist are 1, 4, 8, 36, 16, 72, 32, 900, 216, 144, 64, 1800, 0, 288, 128, ... (Sloane's A046056), where 0 denotes an impossible number (i.e., not a product of partition numbers) of nonisomorphic Abelian, groups. The "missing" values are 13, 17, 19, 23, 26, 29, 31, 34, 37, 38, 39, 41, 43, 46, ... (Sloane's A046064). The incrementally largest numbers of Abelian groups as a function of order are 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 15, 22, 30, 42, 56, 77, 101, ... (Sloane's A046054), which occur for orders 1, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512, 1024, 2048, 4096, 8192, ... (Sloane's A046055). \n\nThe Kronecker decomposition theorem states that every finite Abelian group can be written as a group direct product of cyclic groups of prime power group order. If the group order of a finite group is a prime , then there exists a single Abelian group of order  (denoted ) and no non-Abelian groups. If the group order is a prime squared , then there are two Abelian groups (denoted  and . If the group order is a prime cubed , then there are three Abelian groups (denoted , , and ), and five groups total. If the order is a product of two primes  and , then there exists exactly one Abelian group of group order  (denoted ). \n\nAnother interesting result is that if  denotes the number of nonisomorphic Abelian groups of group order , then \n\n (3) \n\nwhere  is the Riemann zeta function. \n\nThe numbers of Abelian groups of orders  are given by 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, 11, 13, 14, 15, 17, 18, 19, 20, 25, ... (Sloane's A063966) for , 2, .... Srinivasan (1973) has also shown that \n\n (4) \n\nwhere \n\n (5) \n\n(Sloane's A021002, A084892, and A084893 ) and  is again the Riemann zeta function. Note that Richert (1952) incorrectly gave . The sums  can also be written in the explicit forms


My cell phone is stolen! How can I find it.....using the IMEI number.Is there any software to help me track it

Contact your mobile service provider, ie Hutch, !de, Airtel, Orange, BPL, CellOne and request them to discontinue your service. But these companies demand a copy of FIR and related documents from the police. So, remember to xerox the copy of essential docs before approaching these companies. \n\nAlso, remember to take original receipt of mobile handset, as many insurance companies need original price receipt before giving you your money.

What can I do, so my testicles don't stick to my legs when they get all sweaty?  Is there a ball balm?

There are a couple of options:\n\n1) Astro-Glide. This product is used mostly by runners. It works ok. \n\n2) Gold-Bond. This is my product of choice. There are two types: Medicated (Yellow Bottle) and Extra Medicated (Green Bottle). \n\nThis powder has no smell (like baby powder) and it works great. If you get chaffed, throw some of this powder down there and you will be healed.


Why would anyone in there right mind still support G.W. Bu$h?

Sorry I dont support Bush one bit, I dont think he has done anything for this country but put us deeper and deeper in debt, Spied on american citezens, completely screwed with medicare, and went to war in the wrong country becuase he didnt want to hurt his family friends, \nI can not support a president who HAS NEVER FAUGHT IN A WAR, BUT CAN RAGE ONE... how could he do that? \nHe ran with his tail between his legs and hid, while a REAL AMERICAN WILLING TO FIGHT FOR US, went to war and got put down for what he did, All he did was fallow the orders he was given. like any soldier. \nThe medicare thing saddens me to when old people have to depend on samples to make it by Because they cannot afford thier scripts, becuase medicare covers jack, (even the new plans arent fesiable for people with low incomes, or fixed incomes who can't afford to get it are now stuck paying full price yet.) \nas for our unemployment rate, going up... where can i ask has that happend, surely not where i live, \nAnd i agree with its nice to have friends in the white house, becuase good ole bush has friends who count ballots to... doesnt that make you wonder...\nI dont feel america is safer either, not with bush in office atleast

The NAME of the Days:  How did the days of the week get their names .....?

The days of the week were named after the sun and the moon and the five planets w/c are also the names of the Roman gods abd goddesses.\n\nThe ancient Romans named the first two days of the week in honor of the sun and the moon, and so we call them  Sunday ( sun's day ) and Monday (moon's day ). The other five planets were named for Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus and Saturn.\n\nThe Anglo-Saxons, a Germanic people who settled in England long ago and from whose language our English name come changed the Roman names for four days and named them after their own gods.\n\nTuesday was the day of the Tow (Tiw's days), the war god. \nWednesday was named in honor of Woden (Woden's day), leader of their gods.\nThursday was the day of Thor (Thor's day), god of thunder, and \nFriday the day of Frig, queen of thier gods.\nThe Roman "Saturn's day" remained as Saturday.

I HAVE AN EX HUSBAND AND I REALLY NEVER RECIEVE CHILS SUPPORT, CAN MY STEP FATHER ADOPT HIM AND DRAW HIS SS?

If you have been on state assistance, he is paying that. If not, you need to report to DSHS and let them know you are not getting help. Also whoever adopts your son gets total responsibilty! Will be responsible for thee child financially for the rest of his natural life, think hard about this. Further more, quit yer bitchin'! I have never once heard of a man say he's not getting child support. You panty droppers wanted equality, fcuken take it! You created that child, you chose the man, you either take the responsibilty or give him to his father, you CANNOT have it both ways!

i think it is a total violation, i mean cleveland indians, with a cartoonish, red man... who would aprove of boston jews, with a silly picture of a jew? who would aprove of tampa mexicans? or atlanta black men? noone would. and just the same should go for native americans. on the other hand though, some real life native american chiefs consider it an honor. but for those that don't consider it an "honor?" it seems to me like a "forced honor" that, by the ways, degrades the native american people as a whole. good question.


do you think people who make bad decisions and get into trouble can turn their life around or are they labeled

I think by your name you may be a Marine.  Crimes are crimes, and some, can be forgiven with hard work and a real change.  I am an NCO and I have seen troops grow up and take their duty and the rules seriously.  You can change, even if you get discharged.  You can ALWAYS choose the right path, just hope it is not to late, like for Tookie Williams.  Chose to change too late.

why is my friend more affectionate and nicer to my kid than me? its like my kid is her friend more than i am?

Not to be whatever, and I shouldn't even be writing this, but being a military spouse there aren't a whole lot of different friends to meet and you just have to settle for what you get.  SO.. I have this one "friend" that I really don't even like, but her kid is absolutly adorable and I feel really sorry for her that she has a mom like she does so I stick around and be really nice to the kid and try to show her what "normal" is.  I know this is a terrible answer, but maybe it's just time to get a new friend.  thickchix could be very right too.  I think most adults are a lot nicer to kids than their adult counterparts.

What's a good program that has new satellite images of earth?


Dude, are you in my class?  I asked my 3rd graders the first one.  Franklin quote.  I think the last quote has to do with expectations.  Just because you're not the one pulling the trigger doesn't mean you're a hero for standing there and watching it.  If you're surrounded by people who do nothing or little with their lives, anything you do in the other direction might be considered great.  However, you're still just any old guy, not any better than anyone else.  It might just mean that short people should hang out with little people to make themselves feel better.

y does winzip keep telling me to insert a cd-rw to copy files when i already have one?

What's probably happening is Winzip is trying to copy the files to the CDRW but because it doesn't perform any CD burning functions, it fails.  So the program tells you to insert a CDRW.\n\nWinzip is a single purpose application.  It does one thing well, which is to compress files.  In order to burn your files onto a CDRW, you will need another program to burn the mp3 or zip files on the CDRW.  \n\nThe current version of Winzip (version 10) does support CD burning functions but you'll need to get the upgraded Pro version, not the Standard version.  If the version of Winzip is free, they've stripped out that ability.\n\nWhat you can do is zip/unzip your files onto your hard drive and burn the files onto a CDRW using your CD burning program.  It's an extra step but it will allow you to do what you want to do.

my roommate is starting to snoop on my computer, what can i do to safeguard myself.?

Well, if you share your pc with your roommate, I would suggest putting passwords on all of your sites, like yahoo, all of your e-mails, and private things you don't want your roommate to be able to access. Don't write your passwords down anywhere! Your roommate won't be able to get into anything personal that way.


It is Roxio 8 Suite better than Nero 7 Suite?

You can read the review of Roxio 8 from Cnet, http://reviews.cnet.com/Roxio_Easy_Media_Creator_8/4505-3669_7-31554137.html and compare it to Nero 7, http://reviews.cnet.com/Nero_7_Ultra_Edition/4505-3669_7-31520827.html which scored slightly better.  I will leave you to make your own decision from there.\n\nPersonally I prefer a couple of freeware tools that do very much the same thing, CDBurnerXP Pro, http://www.snapfiles.com/get/cdburnerxp.html and DeepBurner, http://www.deepburner.com/\n\nRead reviews of those here, http://www.download.com/DeepBurner/3003-2646_4-10447242.html and here http://www.download.com/CDBurnerXP-Pro/3640-2646_4-10409087.html


Is windows 2000 Pro better than windows XP?

It's more stable, and you can use all of the old Win 9x software on it. On XP there might be some of the old stuff that won't run. I'm running my old Office 2000 on by XP though.\n\nWin 2k is a little more work to configure, it doesn't do think automatically for you as much as XP, some people think this is a GOOD thing :) it depends on how good you are at doing things for yourself.


How many copies of IRS form 1099 should I receive from organizations I did work for as a non-employee?

Usually there's four.  Each of them should specifically say where to file each one.  One will say "file with Federal return", another will say "file with recipient's records" (this would be the one that you keep).  The remaining two will say something along the lines of "file with state, city, or local return".  Only one is required for the state return.  The purpose of having two with the same criteria would be for if you filed a city return or if you filed in two different states (for example if the organization is in one state and you live in another).  In the case that you end up with one not going anywhere, don't worry, that's just one more you can keep with your records.

describe about webcamera & it's function.?

A web camera (or webcam) is a real time camera whose images can be accessed using the World Wide Web, instant messaging, or a PC video calling application. Generally, a digital camera delivers images to a web server, either continuously or at regular intervals.\n\nA webcam is also the name of a class of video camera devices which connect directly to the PC for the purpose of video calling over the internet.\n\nThe first webcam was pointed at the Trojan room coffee pot in the computer science department of Cambridge University. This webcam is now defunct, as it was finally switched off on 22 August 2001. The final image captured by the camera can still be viewed at the webcam's homepage [1].\n\nAs with many new technologies, webcams and webcam chat found their earliest commercial adoption and most aggressive technology advancement through use by the adult industry.\n\nThe adult industry required 'live' images and requested a Dutch developer to write a piece of software that could do this without using so called 'plugins'. This led to the birth of the 'live streaming webcam', which is still available in various forms today.\n\nInitially intended for personal videoconferencing, it was quickly realised that World Wide Web users enjoyed viewing images from cameras set up by others elsewhere in the world. While the term "webcam" refers to the technology generally, the first part of the term ("web-") is often replaced with a word describing what can be viewed with the camera, such as a nestcam or streetcam.\n\nToday there are thousands of webcams that provide views into homes, offices and other buildings as well as providing panoramic views of cities (Metrocams) and the countryside. Images from satellites are frequently posted on the World Wide Web. Webcams are also used to monitor traffic with TraffiCams, the weather with WeatherCams and even volcanos with VolcanoCams.\n\nAs webcam capabilities have been added to instant messaging text chat services such as Yahoo Messenger, AOL Instant Messenger (AIM), MSN Messenger and Skype, one-to-one live video communication over the internet has now reached millions of mainstream PC users worldwide.\n\nMany companies have tried to jump on the 'live video' bandwagon, most notably 'vdolive' (an Israeli company), Spotlife (a Logitech daughter company) and many others, most of these have since failed.\n\nIn astrophotography, webcams are a popular tool among amateurs (see also amateur astronomy) for speckle imaging or lucky imaging techniques. The webcams is attatched to a telescope via a custom-made adaptor, and usually used in conjuction with barlow lenses and IR/UV cut-off filters. Video feed from the camera are then uploaded to a computer for processing.\n\nIn mid-January 2005 two easy to use Google search strings have been published in an on-line forum. These can find thousands of Panasonic- and Axis-made high-end web cameras. Most of such cameras are running on default configuration, which does not require any password login or IP address verification, thus once again generating public controversy over webcam privacy issues.

its blind because we believe an illusion and not what really infront of us


Conflict resolution or conflictology is the process of resolving a dispute or a conflict, by providing each side's needs, and adequately addressing their interests so that they are satisfied with the outcome. Conflict resolution aims to end conflicts before they start or lead to physical fighting.\n\nThis usually involves two or more groups with opposing views regarding specific issues, and another group or individual who is considered to be neutral in their opinion on the subject. This last bit though is quite often not entirely demanded if the "outside" group is well respected by all opposing parties. Resolution methods can include conciliation, mediation, arbitration or litigation.\n\nThese methods all require third party intervention. A resolution method which is direct between the parties with opposing views is negotiation. Negotiation can be the 'traditional' model of hard bargaining where the interests of a group far outweigh the working relationships concerned. The 'principled' negotiation model is where both the interests and the working relationships concerned are viewed as important.\n\nIt may be possible to avoid conflict without actually resolving the underlying dispute, by getting the parties to recognize that they disagree but that no further action needs to be taken at that time. In a few cases, such as in a democracy, it may even be desirable that they disagree, thus exposing the issues to others who need to consider it for themselves: in this case the parties might agree to disagree.\n\nIt is also possible to manage a conflict without resolution, in forms other than avoidance. See conflict management.

Why is the Interior of an airplaine pressurized and what would happen if there was a hole in the exterior wall

An Airplane is pressurised to provide the same pressure as at sea level, or ground altitude for passanger confort and to provent altutiude sickness.\n  You can not breath the air at 20,000 feet with the same amount of oxygen per beath as at sea level. You would pass out from a lack of oxygen.\n   If you get a hole in the airplane outer wall bernoullis principle says that there would be a fall in presure vacume on the other side of the hole causeing a depressurization of the interior of the aircraft to the pressure of 20,000 feet.\n   With a Depressure of cabin air you would see a fog of water droplets in the air, as the density of water in the air becomes more from the oxygen being sucked out of the cabin.\n   As you have seen in movies the hole will be riped larger if it is big enough to alow a large amount of air though and the structure is weak enough in that area.\n In alot of aircrafts the outer wall is a part of the pressure system of the aircraft keeping a seperation between internal pressure and external pressure.\n The whole aircraft is not pressureized wings and rear areas. so a hole in those area wouldn't cause a problum for the passangers.

What do you need to become a baseball player?

You don't need any education at all.  You can be illiterate and just out of the jungle if you have the talent.  But it's good to have something to fall back on because the typical career is not very long and you aren't set for life. \n\nThere are ways to get yourself noticed when the time comes, there are probably a few years in the minor leagues where people go stagnant out of impatience but with perserverance you could expect your chance.  there are only about 750 MLB players all together, that's a small group, and most come and go without a sound.  So it's going to take all the effort any one with talent can put forward to get there.  If I could go back in time I'd like to start building my baseball strength at about 12 years old.  By baseball strength I mean the muscles it takes to swing for bat speed, running, and throwing.  Swinging a heavy bat 100 times a day, running 90 foot sprints, throwing cannonballs, running with tires strapped to your body, all that is what puts you ahead.  Just waiting around does nothing.\n\nBut what a job to have when you get there.

"Life without God or his goodness is hell"\n\nEven if people are not in relationship with God,he is still affecting them. He holds back evil and darkness to a degree that we don't even know about. In Hell, God's power is given way to the Enemies ways. He relinquishes His power to the Prince of Darkness. We all have a choice as to where we want to spend our everlasting life -- we get to choose our "address" of either Heaven in the Kingdom of God or in Hell with the Prince of Darkness.

What's the cheapest way to send flowers to a patient at santa clara valley medical center?

Don't send flowers from proflowers to a patient in a hospital/medical center.  Their flowers are shipped in a box that the patient would have to open.  Also, the vase and flowers come separately and a patient in a medical center will probably not be well enough to open the box, get water, and put the flowers into a vase.\n\nYour best bet?  Order from a local florist.  The 'wire services' charge a fee just to take your order.  So, in the end you may pay more than 60 bucks for 40 dollars worth of flowers.  Save yourself time, money and a headache by calling a local florist in that area.\nBest Wishes!!\n:)\nMs. Orchid

What is pneumatic acutator and how its work???

A pneumatic actuator is an air driven mechanical device for imparting motion to a component.  Look at a JCB and the pistons that power the digger arm.  These pistons fit into cylinders - these are examples of actuators (though in the case of the JCB they are hydraulic actuators).\n\nThe air pressure is supplied to one side of a piston, forcing the piston and connecting rod up a cylinder.  To reverse the action pressure is applied to the opposite side and the reverse occurs.\n\nActuators can also be rotary, these are sometimes termed air motors but are rotary actuators, the air drives a turbine which acts through gears to turn a threaded element, which engages with a thread on the driven component.  Some aircraft flaps are lowered and raised by pneumatic rotary actuaors.


what is carbonation in soft drinks and is it bad for you and what causes fizz?

At atmospheric pressure there is very little carbon dioxide in the air and an open container of beverage will have almost nil CO2.  If the beverage is placed in a can and subjected to high pressure CO2, far more CO2 will be disolved into the beverage.  When you open the can the beverage holds far more CO2 than it should in free air and the excess tries to escape.  The CO2 slowly comes out of solution by nucleating, for example on the inner walls of the can and forming bubbles that rise to the surface.  These bubbles have very poor films (unlike soap bubbles) and pop making fizz.\n\nInterestingly, if you shake a closed can of carbonated soda, the pressure inside the can will not increase even though the soda will nearly explode when you open the can.  Shaking the can allows the free CO2 in the can to thoroughly mix with the soda providing almost unlimited nucleation points for the CO2 to form bubbles and escape (all at once!)

I am a Libra and for some reason I have always only dated Libras. Are we compatable?

here:\nLibra Love Matches\nMost compatible with Aquarius, Gemini, Libra\nCan be good with Scorpio, Sagittarius, Leo, Virgo \nA 50-50 chance with Pisces, Taurus\nDoubtful with Capricorn, Aries, Cancer\n\nLibra And Aries\nWhile they're immediately attracted to each other, tensions also immediately arise. Libra looks for harmony and peace, while restless Aries aggressively seeks new challenges and new worlds to conquer. Libra considers Aries rude and tactless; Aries thinks Libra hopelessly unwilling to face facts. Aries needs to feel independent but wants unquestioning fidelity from its partner, and can't forgive Libra's indecisiveness about making a commitment. Passionate Aries is also offended by Libra's shallow emotions. Physical rapport is wonderful for a while but then what? \n\nLibra And Taurus\nThis couple shares a love of music and art, but hasn't much else in common. Taurus is a homebody, which bores Libra, who likes to shine socially. Libra spends lots of money on luxuries, Taurus advocates financial caution. Libra dislikes Taurus's dictatorial ways and quickly loses patience with Taurus's stodgy attitudes. To boot, Taurus is jealous of Libra's romantic and fickle nature. They are s+e+xually in tune, but when the song is ended the malady lingers on. \n\nLibra And Gemini \nPleasure-loving Libra and high-spirited Gemini are an ideal mating. Both are curious, vivacious, and affectionate. For them, love is a carousel that never stops. True, the fun and games are more frolicsome than deeply passionate, but these two don't care as long as they're having fun. No jealousy or possessiveness will spoil their good times. Both tend to be quite indecisive, so there will be lots of discussion but not a lot of action. However, both know how to use charm to get other people to do things for them. \n\nLibra And Cancer\nCancer might eventually understand Libra's romantic nature, but Cancer is too cautious to press indecisive Libra for the emotional response it needs. Disappointed at Libra's shallowness, Cancer turns sharply critical, and those crab-claws cut deep. Money-oriented Cancer is also annoyed by Libra's extravagance. Libra loves the glittering social life; Cancer is happiest in the warmth of its own home. Problems might be solved in time, but the wait usually isn't worth it. \n\nLibra And Leo\nLibra's amorous playfulness blends marvelously with Leo's dash and energy. Leo's generous, expansive sensuality really lights Libra's fire, and the thermometer moves up to torrid. Libra does have to approach Leo carefully on matters involving ego, but that won't be a problem for tactful Libra. In a real conflict, Libra knows how to yield gracefully. Together they share a love of luxury, going to parties, and creating a beautiful home that serves as a stage setting for these two stars.\n\nLibra And Virgo\nLibra is too affectionate and frivolous for emotionally inhibited Virgo, who takes love very seriously. Virgo won't express flowery admiration, which is the stuff of life to Libra. Stay-at-home Virgo resents Libra's socialbutterfly instincts and pursuit of pleasure. Libra's tastes are expensive. Virgo is careful, not to say miserly. Libra finds Virgo fussy, critical, completely inflexible. Love will have a short season for these two. \n\nLibra And Libra\nEqually demonstrative, lively, warm, sociable, in love with beautiful things, they enjoy pleasing each other in s+e+xual ways. But with these two there's a great sense of playing at love. A problem is that neither wants to face reality. Though they are charming, peace-loving, and adaptable, each needs a stronger balance than the other can provide. Also, because they are so much alike, the specter of boredom lurks around the edges. But if both of them can find enough outside stimulation to whet their appetites, this can be an interesting liaison.\n\nLibra And Scorpio\nAt first, Scorpio's intensit

At what phase of the moon will tides be the highest?

The maximum water level is called "high tide" or "high water" and the minimum level is "low tide" or "low water". High water occurs as two bulges in the height of the oceans; one bulge faces the moon and the other, on the opposite side of the earth, faces away from the moon. For an explanation see below under Tidal physics. There are two low waters positioned at about 90° of longitude from the high waters. At any given point on the ocean, there are normally two high tides and two low tides each day. The common names of the two high tides are the "high high" tide and the "low high" tide; the two low tides are called the "high low" tide and the "low low" tide. On average, high tides occur 12 hours 24 minutes apart. The 12 hours is due to the Earth's rotation, and the 24 minutes to the Moon's orbit. The 12 hours is half of a solar day and the 24 minutes is half of a lunar extension, which is 1/ (29-day lunar cycle). The lunar cycle is what is tracked by tide clocks.\n\nThe time between high tide and low tide, when the water level is falling, is called the "ebb". The time between low tide and high tide, when the tide is rising, is called "flow" or "flood". At the times of high tide and low tide, the tide is said to be "turning".\n\n \nThe height of the high and low tides (relative to mean sea level) also varies. Around new and full Moon when the Sun, Moon and Earth form a line, the tidal forces due to the Sun reinforce those of the Moon, due to the syzygy found at those times.\n\nThe tides' range is then at its maximum: this is called the "spring tide", or just "springs" and is derived not from the season of spring but rather from the German verb springen, meaning "to leap up". When the Moon is at first quarter or third quarter, the sun and moon are at 90° to each other and the forces due to the Sun partially cancel out those of the Moon. At these points in the Lunar cycle, the tide's range is at its minimum: this is called the "neap tide", or "neaps".\n\nSpring tides result in high waters that are higher than average, low waters that are lower than average, slack water time that is shorter than average and stronger tidal currents than average. Neaps result in less extreme tidal conditions. Normally there is a seven day interval between springs and neaps.\n\nThe relative distance of the Moon from the Earth also affects tide heights: When the Moon is at perigee the range increases, and when it is at apogee the range is reduced. Every 7½ lunations, perigee and (alternately) either a new or full Moon coincide; at these times the range of tide heights is greatest of all, and if a storm happens to be moving onshore at this time, the consequences (in the form of property damage, etc.) can be especially severe (surfers are aware of this, and will often intentionally go out to sea during these times, as the waves are more spectacular than ever). The effect is enhanced even further if the line-up of the Sun, Earth and Moon is so exact that a solar or lunar eclipse occurs concomitant with perigee.

I don't know what a concert prayer is, but I don't see a problem with electric guitars in church.  We have one, two acoustic guitars, two keyboards, a piano, percussion, a viola, and a cello.  The Bible says, "Make a joyful noise unto the Lord."  It doesn't specify that electric guitars are not to be used.  Pianos weren't around in Bible times either, but we still use them.  There's nothing "evil" about music until you make it "evil" with lyrics or whatnot.  Any music offered to God as a true act of worship is pleasing to Him.
