what quote starts out "the sweetest sounds'?

The sweetest sounds to mortals given\nAre heard in Mother, Home, and Heaven.\n~William Goldsmith Brown


Do you actually have any basis for what your say or just go along with the masses and try to sound intelligent?  Impeached for what?  Do you even know what the word means or why it is done?  Please, try looking into what you are talking about instead of just going along with what your friends at Berkley think is cool.


give some fun facts about electromagnet?

Electro-magnets use electricity to temporarily align all of the atoms in a ferrous material to a N-S position. When the electricity is turned off, the atoms return to their original misaligned state, losing much of its magnetivity. It never completely loses all of it, as some atoms will remain in the alligned state, creating a "Gauss" feild around it.


1.1 Where can I get queen ants? \n\nThere are a few possibilities:\n\na. You can dig her nest up and find her. This is a tedious and\n   difficult method and may not always be successful. The queen\n   is very difficult to get. --Ant\n\n   I have done this numerous times. For Formicas (larger small\n   mound building species) I use:\n\n   1. Spade shovel\n   2. 2 five gallon buckets\n   3. 2 covers for buckets\n   4. Metal spoon.\n   5. Newspaper (a section will do)\n   6. Jars/bucket with 1-2" inside near rim treated with oil\n\n   The process I use is to locate less developed nests (smaller).\n   Then I carry shovel, buckets, and covers to site of nest\n   during mid to late day (when sun has warmed upper soil).\n\n   Next, I cut a circle around colony usually about size of\n   bucket or smaller if possible. Think of this like cutting a 6"\n   deep hole of sod; but don't pull up the section until you have\n   made your circular cut. When your ready lift the whole\n   section out of ground -- intact if possible -- put in first\n   bucket. Then while the nest is disturbed, begin to quickly dig\n   the rest of the soil following chambers and tunnels until few \n   ants are found or bucket(s) are full. As buckets get full, \n   place covers on them.\n\n   Now, take the bucket(s) home and begin to manually sort (using\n   spoon, newspapers for the refuse soil and jars/bucket to put\n   the workers, pupae, larvae, eggs in while looking for the\n   queen(s). Once the queen is obtained, then one can decide\n   whether to keep sorting to obtain more workers or eggs, larvae\n   pupae, etc. I have found eggs are very difficult to spot in\n   many species unless they are still in wads of multiple eggs.\n\n   Under large rocks mid-day or there about: Similar process as\n   above, but usually one doesn't need to get as much soil and    \n   one may see immediately the queen. I've turned large blocks\n   many times and seen huge colonies -- with a queen scrambling\n   for cover. --Mr. Ant\n\nb. Rotting boards are good candidates. In West Virginia this\n   summer (1999), I found three species all with queens under a\n   rotting dog house we had to move.\n\n   Carpenter ant queens, at least in Michigan, can relatively\n   easily be found in late fall or early spring (in cool\n   temperatures) by locating a large tree stand with a fair\n   amount of downed and rotting logs. By carefully peeling off\n   the bark one should easily be able to find a carpenter queen\n   with her first brood (in some stage) in a egg shaped chamber\n   between bark and wood of tree. Being prepared with collection\n   jars (large mouthed mason work great) and sharp long knife.\n   One places a small section of bark over the 1.5" oval chamber\n   and cuts into the tree to extract completely the 1.5" oval\n   chamber and surrounding wood. --Mr. Ant\n\nc. Wait for the nuptial flights during the spring and summer\n   seasons. The new queen ants usually fly away after a rain\n   storm during a warm temperature. It depends where you are, and\n   the development of the colony. Most species of ants will mate\n   in late spring and summer (June through August). --Ant and \n   Angelo Scott\n\n   Nuptial flights are the best time to get queens. Many times I\n   seem to miss them for various reasons. The best reason to get\n   nuptial queens is they are MUCH less sensitive to light than\n   full blown native colonies (which I have observed take some\n   time to acclimatize to light). Also, you get to see the full\n   development cycle. It is important make sure to feed your\n   queen before she enters the chamber as this will give her a\n   much larger first brood than otherwise would have occurred.\n   She will greedily gorge herself and then you can finally put\n   her in your terrarium. --Mr. Ant\n\nd. Finding colonies with queens is best done during the first\n   really warm weather of spring. At this time, queens come near\n   the surface to

Sure.  Try looking into activities that have strong "young lesbian & bi girl" appeal.  Ani D. concert, anyone?  And progressive politics is very common place to meet people.\n\nBelieve me, there are lots of girls out there in every small town.  This is not that statistically rare a minority we are in.  Be patient; tends to happen when you're least expecting it.  And if you meet someone you like, show her some attention, and spend time with her one-on-one; you never know...\n\nMost important of all:  if you want to be loved, and to be touched, you have to be FEARLESS.

Who thinks the Giants have a chance winning the World Series?

I think that they have a good chance of winning. I like the Giants and I like to watch Barry Bonds hit. But I think the Giants can win the World Series if they stop relying on Bonds to win all of their games for them. If you are a Giants fan then you know what I am talking about.

Maybe you mean "Community Acquired Pneumonia (CAP)"?  I have never heard of pneumonia communal, but I practice in the United States.  If your sister lives in the US, I think she likely has CAP, which is the most common form of pneumonia.  It just means that she contracted it in a normal fashion (as opposed to nosocomial pneumonia which is contracted in an acute care setting like a hospital, or atypical pneumonia which involves different bacteria).  It is relatively easy to treat, but with your sister's cancer, she might have to be treated longer (usually treated in 5-10 days; she might require 10-14 days). P.S. - I just read the previous post - I would not pay much attention to that.  MRSA is completely different than community acquired pneumonia...I'm not sure where that person drew the parallel between communal and MRSA.

What is the difference in terms of benefits between a house or condo?

How much time do you really want to spend on the weekends mowing the lawn, edging, weed eating, fertilizing, etc?\n\nI own a condo so that I can have more time to do what I want to do.  I own the building from the walls in.  Therefore, I can do whatever I want inside as long as I do not tear out a structural or load bearing wall.\n\nThere are many styles of condos and houses available.  Some look and feel like apartments and some look and feel like regular homes (patio homes).  Talk to a real estate agent to go look at both condos and houses.  You may be able to get a better deal on a condo depending on where you live.


why    the  European  dont want to help the palestinan peopol to  get  a  fredome?

The Palestinian people have their own government and land.  And it is the Palistinians who carry out unprovoked attacks against the Israelis.  The Israelis are simply retaliating against the Palistinians and their terrorist Hamas government.

Is it only the Communists who really care about ordinary working people?

if by caring you mean, keep the politicians rich, and everyone else poor, then yes.\n\nCommunism has been proven not to work several times.  Free market is what works.  If you work hard, you are rewarded.  If you do not work, then you are not rewarded, unless some liberals get some things their way.\n\nedit*  the question asked about who cares about WORKING people.  Capitalism takes care of people who WORK.  If you are looking for a handout, or looking to have the government take things you worked hard for, and distribute them to the non workers, then socialism is for you.\n\nSocialism:  Study hard, work hard, become a doctor or start a business, and have everything you worked for given away to the people who chose not to study or work.


if I A GAY, is positive way to be a normal guy?


My G/F is pregnant. How should I take care of her?

As the pregnancy advances, your girlfriend will get tired.  Building a baby is hard work.  Help her with chores and tasks that she has previously done.\n\nEncourage her to eat nutritious meals and take her prenatal vitamins.  Help her prepare her living space to be a safe environment for an infant.  A baby will need a quiet area to sleep, a secure place to be changed, storage space for clothes and supplies.  \n\nIf she drives, or if you do, get a child seat designed for infants and get a professional to install it.  \n\nShe will have mood swings.  Accept them.  There are benefits to this.  When she goes through the nesting stage, you will get cookies.  \n\nRead books about child care and pregnancy.  A good one is What to Expect When You're Expecting.  I also like Lynn Johnston's cartoon books about pregnancy, childbirth, and infancy.  She will need to laugh from time to time.  \n\nGo to childbirth classes with her so you are prepared to help her in the delivery room.  Learn to give good backrubs and foot massages.

When someone asks something like "why don't all **** go back to Africa?

I have a pretty bad knee jerk reaction to those sorts of things and it's hard for me to keep from answering their questions. I think the best thing to do is just not answer them at all. These guys (or gals) really do get a kick out of that kind of stuff and are amused at all the stupid white people (or what ever kind of people) that don't think their bigoted opinion is the truth. It seems to just reinforce their beliefs. know what I'm gonna try and ignore them, but I know I won't always be able to help myself. \nThat said, I know I've probably said some pretty sarcastic or inflammatory remarks in some of my answers but to attack a person for their beliefs is not the same as attacking someone for something that they can't change (like skin color or a physical or mental disability) PEOPLE CAN ALWAYS CHANGE THEIR BELIEFS. Let's just hope more of the bigots and racists of the world change theirs.


Math Question, Can anybody help me? I don't get how to do this.?

OK - here goes:  \n\nLet X equal the number of pounds of the six buck coffee.\n\nThen, 6*X + 4*3 = 4.75*(X+3)\n\nSo, 6x + 12 = 4.75x + 14.25\n\nSubtract 4.75x from each side to get:\n\n1.25x + 12 = 14.25.\n\nSubtract 12 from each side to get:\n\n1.25x = 2.25.\n\nDivide each side by 1.25 to get:\n\nX = 1.8.\n\nTo check it:  1.8 pounds of 6 dollar coffee would cost $10.80.  3 pounds of 4 dollar coffee would cost $12.00.  Together, you have 4.8 pounds of coffee that cost $22.80, and $22.80/4.80 pounds = $4.75 per pound.\n\nSo, 1.8 pounds is the answer!


Is there anything in the scriptures about deserting another person? Are Christians supposed to do that?

Hold on, I'll read it.\n\nOK. The entire chapter is a prayer to God. It starts with the caption "a prayer of the afflicted, when he is overwhelmed and pours out his complaint before the Lord."\n\nThe person in Psalms would have been a Israelite (or Jew), not a Christian, but the purpose of this chapter is still relevant. \n\nWe have a relationship with God, and we are allowed to tell Him how we feel, but should do so respectfully. There is nothing wrong with telling God that you are mad, sad, hurt, or whatever. And when you think about it, what's the alternative? Lying to God? I wouldn't try to. \n\nTo answer the second question, this verse is not about a Christian (or a Jew) turning his back on anyone. There are situations when a Christian is entitled to sever ties, end a friendship, even end a marriage. If someone murders your child, God does not expect you to be around that person or support that person. If your friend constantly gossips and back bites you even after you have talked about it several times, there is no requirement that you maintain a relationship with him/her. If your spouse has sex outside your marriage, you are permitted to divorce him/her. \n\nThere are a few things a Christian must do in cases like these, though. One is to forgive. The other is to not judge the person, only the behavior. Forgiveness doesn't mean that you have to trust, nor does it mean you withhold consequences (like jail, or divorce). It only means that you release the person from the spiritual punishment of holding a grudge, and in doing so, you free your self from the burden of holding a grudge.

My favorite SNL Actor(s) are Jan Hooks and Nora Dunn (playing the Sweeney Sisters) Dana Carvey as the Church Lady, Jon Lovitz as the Devil (remember the show with Rosanna Arquette?)  and Will Ferrell and Cheri O Teri as the Spartan Cheerleaders always made me laugh.

what is the best preforming mutual fund?

You can go to this Morning Star site and get the best performing funds for the past year. It is ProFunds UltraJapan Inv.  Unfortunately funds that do the best one year frequently do terribly the next year.  You can also get the funds that have done best over the last 3, 5, and 10 years.  Unfortunately studies have proven that even funds with good 10 years records have a tendency to underperform the market in the future.  The Magellan fund had the best record ~15 years ago,  over the last 10 years it has not done well.

Why are some trying to make the illegal immigration issue into a racial one?

alnjk: I agree that it is difficult to circumvente around the meaning of the word illegal, although some have tried to distort the meaning by referring to those having an illegal status by calling them "undocumented" instead. The terms "immigrant" and "ILLEGAL immigrant are NOT interchangable. For example if I tell you to screw in a light bulb you would put the light bulb in...If I asked you to UNscrew the light bulb, you would know that I ment to take it out. PREFIXES make a BIG difference in the meaning of a word.......yes the word 'prefix' is a transitive verb.

If your goal is to bench a heavier amount, then you have to lift heavier amounts.  You can't lift heavy if you're doing high reps.  Firstly, you should be at least an intermediate weight trainer (2+ years experience) before even considering what I'm about to advise.  \n\nThere are three primary energy systems in the body, phospho-creatine, glycogen-lactic acid and aerobic.  If you want to lift heavy, you must focus on the phospho-creatine system, meaning your lifts should be no more than 8-10s (or less than 6 reps).  If you extend beyond this limit, you begin to kick in the glycogen-lactic acid system which is more related to strength gains than power.  6 reps or less will allow you to stimulate the appropriate energy system so that you may adapt to lifting heavier with more power as your training regimen progresses.  Creatine supplementation is also advisable and works very well with this type of training.\n\nPlease seek the advice of a professional trainer if you are not an experienced lifter.  Training 6 reps or less takes considerable knowledge on the basics before you can excel at this level.  Always use a spotter and you should be maxing out on the 5th or 6th rep and no more.  Also, stay away from any aerobic or cardiovascular activies as they will hamper your progression.  If you don't need to run then walk, if you don't need to walk then stand, if you don't need to stand then sit, if you don't need to sit then lie down, and if you don't need to stay awake then sleep.  The goal is to maximize growth and power, and you need plenty of rest and plenty of calories to achieve this.


Since she didn't take you seriously, it sounds to me like the two of you already know each other.  That's a start.\n\nI wouldn't lay on the "I love you" bit just yet.  It takes some people time to have those feelings for another person.\n\nGet your friends together and ask her or one of her girl friends to go on a picnic or a movie or SOMETHING where there would be a small crowd of you all together. Say, "Bring your friends".\n\nGirls are more likely to go out to places when there are several members of both sexes there.\n\nFrom there just gradually get closer and closer to her until there is a moment when you can kiss her.\n\nDon't ask if it would be OK to kiss her.  Just do it.  Much sexier.\n\nAnother big point.  Don't tell her again that you love her until you feel she is having the same feelings as you.\nOtherwise, you would probably just scare her off.  Wait til you think she's flirting back at you, then make your move.

Should I tell my kids (10 &12) there is no God or cover up my beliefs?

I love the fact that you allow them to find out for themselves. I am so glad my parents never forced me to believe or not believe in what they believe in.\n\nThe subject God is not something anybody can ever make someone understand or believe in. It's more of a personal journey out of a longing and desire to understand our place in this Universe.\n\nSo just let them find out on their own path. I think it's important to teach kids good values and good character qualities because what we put out comes back to us.


In 1916, Hindenburg and Ludendorf initiated "War Socialism" upon the German economy, because they felt they were being cheated by German industrialists who had successfully been able to find chemical replacements for the items kept out of Germany by the British blockade (ie-Ammonium to replace Nitrates for gunpowder, wood pulp to replace cotton for artillery wadding, etc). From that point on, German industry and German agriculture began a comprehensive effort to force the German government to rescind this order by pretending they could not fill any orders for war materials.\n\nEven though Germany posessed the coal fields of Silesia and the Ruhr, plus the Iron mines of Lorraine as well as sea access across the Baltic to Iron mines of Sweden, German industry made weapons only with the metals provided by the government by melting down church bells and only made bullets with the melted down lead from window panes and plumbing pipes. Even though Germany had conquered Rumania, Poland and Ukraine (which consituted over 80% of the pre-war agricultural imports to Germany), by 1918 almost half a million Germans had starved to death. The artillery had gone so long without new cannons that more often than not they ended up shelling their own positions. The Army bread was more sawdust than wheat.\n\nAs this sabotage from within continued, the soldiers in the Army became more dissatisfied and many deserted in the attempt to find work so their families would not lose their homes or go hungry. Whenever there was a protest against the war, the protestors were not jailed but inducted into the Army, where they became the seed for even more disillusion within the ranks.\n\nHitler was right and wrong. Germany was stabbed in the back but not by the Jews. Germany was stabbed in the back by the capitalists, who thirteen years later would conspire to end German democracy and install Hitler as their partner. This was the only partnership that Hitler, in the end, would honor completely.

which is the smallest country ever qulify for 2006 world cup finals?


I doubt if a WW III would happen, however if the US attacks Iran it can anticipate the following things. \nWe will start losing oil tankers in the gulf,  The war in Iraq will boil over into something many times worse than it is now, terrorits acts from groups such as Hezbollah and covert Iranian operations will happen with great frequency, and maybe in Chicago, New York, and Los Angeles.\nThe price of oil will become astronomical and tens of thousands will be no longer employed as the airlines, hotels and spin off industries go into bankruptcy.  Oil will go from 100 to 300 dollars a barrel.\n\nAnd the sad thing is there in no need for the US to do this.


Day by day prevalence of ES BL is very high in hospital.Is there any new antibiotic policy to prevent that?

The tendency for hospitals with high prevalences of Extended-spectrum beta-lactamases is to place those patients in similar isolation status as those with vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) or methicillin-resistant Staph aureus (MRSA).  That implies wearing of gloves, gowns, etc., and strict handwashing rules.  \n\nOtherwise, the tendency is to follow the susceptibility results from the cultures and to use narrow-spectrum antibiotics whenever possible.


Any regulation to protect consumers from internet frauds?

Absolutely.  There are quite a number of laws preventing internet fraud, a few of them federal.  A large number of internet frauds originate overseas (places such as Nigeria), but even these are being prosecuted by U.S. authorities.\n\nIf you suspect that you were the victim of an internet fraud, you can contact the United States Secret Service or the FBI.  The web site for reporting these frauds is http://complaint.ic3.gov.


AIDS- causes, symptoms, preventions & effects (economic, social & political)?

Symptoms:\nThe symptoms of AIDS are primarily the result of infections that do not normally develop in individuals with healthy immune systems. These are called opportunistic infections.\n\nPatients with AIDS have had their immune system depleted by HIV and are very susceptible to such opportunistic infections. Common symptoms are fevers, sweats (particularly at night), swollen glands, chills, weakness, and weight loss.\n\nSee the signs and tests section below for a list of common opportunistic infections and major symptoms associated with them.\n\nNote: Initial infection may produce no symptoms. Some people with HIV infection remain without symptoms for years between the time of exposure and development of AIDS. However, some people develop what feels like flu about two weeks after contracting the virus.\n\nSigns and tests:\nThe following is a list of AIDS-related infections and cancers that people with AIDS acquire as their CD4 count decreases. Previously, having AIDS was defined by having HIV infection and acquiring one of these additional diseases, but now it is simply defined as a CD4 count below 200. Many other illnesses and corresponding symptoms may develop in addition to those listed here.\n\n\nPrevention:\nThe following steps may seem personally restrictive, but they are effective and can save your life.\n\n1.See the article on safe sex to learn how to reduce the chance of acquiring or spreading HIV and other sexually transmitted diseases.\n2.Do not use intravenous drugs. If IV drugs are used, do not share needles or syringes. Many communities now have needle exchange programs where used syringes can be disposed of and new, sterile needles obtained for free. 3.These programs can also provide referrals to addiction treatment.\n4.Avoid contacting blood from injuries or nosebleeds where the HIV status of the bleeding individual is unknown. 5.Protective clothing, masks, and goggles may be appropriate when caring for people who are injured.\n6.Anyone who tests positive for HIV may pass the disease on to others and should not donate blood, plasma, body organs, or sperm. An infected person should warn any prospective sexual partner of their HIV-positive status, should not exchange body fluids during sexual activity, and must use whatever preventative measures (such as condoms) will afford the partner the most protection.\n7.HIV-positive women who wish to become pregnant should seek counseling about the risk to unborn children and medical advances which may help prevent the fetus from becoming infected. Use of certain medications can dramatically reduce the chances that the baby will become infected during pregnancy.\n8.Mothers who are HIV-positive should not breast feed their babies.\n9.Safe-sex practices, such as latex condoms, are highly effective in preventing HIV transmission. HOWEVER, there remains a risk of acquiring the infection even with the use of condoms. Abstinence is the only sure way to prevent sexual transmission of HIV.\n\n=)


is ' Yahoo Answers service' good or bad to society?

In any new invention like Yahoo Answers, there's bound to be a glitch. Some people on the site like to ask gross or useless questions, which totally disregards the purpose of the website. On the plus side, people can get real answers to their questions fast. On the whole, the site is good, and I think other websites will jump on the bandwagon with Yahoo.


what are some of the uses of the Jarrah forest in south-western Australia,  historic , present and future?

This area has the best soil and rainfall in southwestern Australia and supports lush forests along the southern coast. Giant eucalyptus trees, including the jarrah and karri, grow in areas with good soil and rainfall, interspersed with heath and sedges. Jarrah trees grow up to 130 feet (40 m) in height, while karri trees--the tallest trees found in Western Australia--reach 300 feet (90 m). Both of these trees are prized by the timber industry. Other trees found here include the marri, a eucalypt that grows to 200 feet (60m), and the peppermint tree. Karri forest undergrowth is very moist and dense, with a wide variety of shrubs, many of them with colorful flowers. Blue wisteria vines and red coral vines grow among the trees and shrubs, and numerous birds and marsupials live in these rich forests.\n\nJarrah forest restoration is an extremely complex task, given the very large number of plant species present. Jarrah forests are one of the most plant species rich forests in the world, outside of tropical rain forests.\n\nAlcoa operates two bauxite mines at Willowdale and Huntly in the Darling Range of south-western Western Australia, 80-140km south of Perth. A third mine at Jarrahdale operated from 1963 to1998 and has now been completely rehabilitated.\n\nThe Huntly mine is the largest bauxite producer in the world. Bauxite from the two mines is processed to alumina at Alcoa's three refineries at Kwinana, Pinjarra and Wagerup. These refineries produce some 15% of the world's alumina, which is then shipped interstate or overseas for smelting to produce aluminium.\nI hope this helps good luck.


when a girl flaunts her butt what does this mean in terms of body language?

Being sexy doesn't mean she want's to have sex. It is fun for girls to get noticed. I'm always flattered when guys notice me, but the problem is that if you flaunt it, you can get that kind of attention from anybody. If you really like her, just talk to her and maybe ask her if she feels the same way.

what other compounds are in chicken eggshells besides calcium carbonate?

The main ingredient in eggshells is calcium carbonate (the same brittle white stuff that chalk, limestone, cave stalactites, sea shells, coral, and pearls are made of). The shell itself is about 95% CaCO3 (which is also the main ingredient in sea shells). The remaining 5% includes calcium phosphate and magnesium carbonate and soluble and insoluble proteins.

england goalkeeper? who should get number 2 spot?

I think that David James should get the nod as the backup goalkeeper and Rob Green should be the third choice keeper. James has made very bad mistakes for England before, but there is no denying his experience playing in big matches for England, something that neither Kirkland or Green have. I think that his tendency to fold under pressure has also diminished. \n\nRob Green has had a good season with Norwich, but he is playing Championship Football, and there is a significant gulf between that and the Premier League, let alone World Cup matches.\n\nChris Kirkland is a very talented keeper and it is sad that injuries have plagued him over the past two years or else he would have been an automatic choice and perhaps even a possible starting keeper. The problem is he has just not played enough football this season to warrent his place and he has not built up enough form or consistency. His latest injury setback sounds the death knell to his chances of selection.\n\nI think it is a great pity that England has such a small selection of quality goalkeepers to choose from when the national team has always had such classy goalkeepers to draw on: Seaman, Banks, Shilton, Woods, Clemence, Flowers and Swift to name but a few.


awsome. I go to Atlanta all the time...Love them Falcons!?

I would like to know what you think of the Dahon Jack folding bike.  Where could I get one at a good price?

On my second Dahon now and absolutely love it. I have the Expresso model which is a 26" like the Jack. The reason that I didn't get the Jack is because the Expresso is a better bike for hills. I have never had an issue with my Dahon even after a one time crash. No one has ever noticed that it was a foldup bike! I did a lot of research on all the folding bikes before I decided on the Dahon. The link below is the best bike shop for price and service that I've dealt with. If you have any questions just e-mail me.

The first Christians was Messianic Jews, a very small jewish cult.  it wasn't until several decades later that the messianic jews started to call themselves Christian.\nMessianic Jews still exist today and they worship Christ but follow the old Jewish ways.  Christians don't follow the old jewish ways!

How do you calculate the minimum payment of monthly credit card?

It depends on the credit card.\n\nMost credit cards require 2% or 4% of the outstanding balance.\n\nTo calculate it, multiply:\n(% of outstanding balance) x (oustanding balance).\n\nFor example, if you owe $3000, and your credit card company required a 4% balance payment, then you'd multiply:\n$3000 x 4% = $120\n\nAlso, many credit card companies round up to the nearest $1, $5, or $10.

How skinny?  I like my guys with a little meat on their bones and I definitely like my guys to be bigger than I am.  If you really have weight to lose and you aren't trying to be a skinny emo kid for the sake of what's trendy, start doing cardio for 30 minutes a day at least three times a week and strength training with moves like push-ups and sit-ups on the days you don't do cardio.  As for diet, leave 3 big bites on your plate after every meal.  This adds up to hundreds of calories per day.

do your gums bleed when your body is adjusting to an altitude change?

Floss, Floss, Floss.   Her gums bleed perhaps, because she has changed her hygiene regimen. Unless your daughter has some type of immune dysfunction associated with gingivitis(juvenille periodontitis).  The most common cause of bleeding gums is lack of gum health(gingival tone)  Gum tone is achieved with flosing and brushing consistently.  Gums may bleed for a few weeks after starting a new hygiene regimen, but eventually  as the tone(health) is achieved the bleeding and sometimes smell goes way down.  This is why many times when a person starts a new flossing regimen they are put off because suddenly gums that have never been touched by anything except food or bacteria, are flossed and they bleed, Gradually, however, with consistency gum tone will be achieved and the bleeding should go away.


How are Ingrid Bergman and David Schwimmer related?

David Schwimmer worked with Gwyneth Paltrow in The Pallbearer, Gwyneth Paltrow was the god-daughter of Steven Spielberg who directed Saving Private Ryan which also casts Ted Danson who has a show called Becker in which Leonard Nimoy guested, Leonard Nimoy worked with Ingrid Bergman in A Woman called Golda. And that is how David Schimmer might be connected to Ingrid Bergman. whew!\n\nFor shorter one, Isabella Rossellini was once a guest in Friends and it is right that she is the daughter of Ingrid Bergman.

Will the so called "Islamic Republic" of Iran succeed ?

The idea here is that systems are created by people and not single individuals. The Iranian people by whatever reason rosed against the regime of the Shah in 1979 to usher in the current system.For the past 26 years the story has been to change again, one wonders whether Iranians have not understood their action well when the topple the Monarchy in 1979. At any rate it seems the current govt is having as much support and enemies from in and out side. With the current deadlock one could but only think the regime can survive if the people fighting it continue to be divided. The strength of any sysytem lies in the unity of its people and thier loyality towards the establishment.


Is Rugby Union no longer a gentlemen's game?

I don't know if this is a question anyone can provide a comprehensive answer to. I can only speak to the state of rugby union in the United States, where the game has become associated with the irresponsible excesses of the "frat" culture on college campuses.\n\nFortunately, there are is reason for hope. The rules of the game, for one... the referee's judgement is rarely questioned, and there is a showboating rule. Rugby is very much a team game, and the institution of the post-match social is not so far gone that it cannot be redeemed. Suggestions: sportcoats, better beer, and a little bit of ceremony.

These look like dice.com monikers.\n\nCON_CORP means that you are a self-employed contractor set up as an S-Corporation for tax purposes.  They pay you on an arrangement that is called "Corp-to-Corp".  The corporate directors (which would probably be you) are responsible for paying all taxes.\n\nCON_IND means that you are a self-employed contractor.  The company (or contracting agency) will pay you and report the payments on a 1099-MISC form to the IRS.  You are responsible for making quarterly tax payments to the IRS.\n\nBe aware that under either of these situations, you may be subject to higher taxes, called self-employment tax, which is both employee and employer parts of social security and medicare tax.  The self-employment tax was 15.3% in 2005.

Statistically the average is about 6 inches when erect.

yes\n\nComprehension - Canada is much more nearer to US than India, thereby  Canada can get new information, medical discoveries, new technology and procedures much faster than India.\n\nSymposium and seminars - it will be easier for the Canadian to travel to US for important seminars, lectures, convention thna those in India that need to travel across different time zone.\n\nResearch - there are far more research being done in the US than in India, which for the Canadian counterpart is easier to access than those in India. India may be the next center of research, but before we get there, you need to complete your education where it is ahead than the rest.\n\nLibraries - Canadian libraries are fully stock as those in the US, in India? \n\nPotentiality - Western hemisphere have the potential now than Asia.\n\nDo I need to list more?


I used to teach Sunday School, and It's GREAT to do a craft with them. I would look in a children's bible and pick out a good story and base the class on that story and what it teaches. Find a craft to do relating to it- even if it's just coloring. Read the kids the story and talk briefly about what it means, then explain the craft you guys are going to do and how it relates to the story you just read. Then you guys can all do the craft until the parents come pick them up!

Wil the conjoining of black holes in the future spell the end of the entire universe?

No, I think it'll take too long for them to join together.  They're generally so far apart that the gravitational pull on each other is very very small.  Besides, the universe is constantly expanding, so instead we'll end up in a position where everything is just cold and the density of matter is very small.  That's just one theory, though.

i wanna know the history of goths and punk rockers and how they developed?

It all started when some poor kid whose hair looked like crap cause he slept late and didn't have time to comb it and only had all black clothes to wear one day shamefully went to school awaiting to be ridiculed.  \n\nA few kids at school saw him and said "whoa dude - looks rebellious - I think I'll try the same thing tomorrow".  The next day a few other kids who weren't good at sports, academics, band, or pretty much anything else did the same thing and it spread to other schools across the world.  \n\nTo continue to be "nonconformist" the starters of the goth movement had to begin sticking crap in their bodies and getting tattos thinking no one else would be stupid enough to try that just to fit in but, alas - they were wrong.\n\nThere you go - now all the kids that think they are rebels and individualists, who aren't good at anything all look like about 20 million other kids who think their rebellious nonconformists who really aren't good at anything either - go figure.\n\nPeople across the world want to belong to something - even if its Al Queda.  Look at the older generation of what used to be called yuppies.  Goth to young people is like some wannabe poser smoking a cigar even though he knows it is the foulist tasting, vialist, most nasty thing he has ever put in his mouth.  \n\n20 years ago no one smoked cigars and the entire industry was all but bankrupt.  Along comes Bill & Monica and now you know the rest of the story.  \n\nToday if eating dog crap was made popular by some "celebrity" - there is a certain type of person who is so desperate to fit in he would be walking around with a pooper scooper.\n\nIf ya gotta look around to see what's considered hot - you can be sure of one thing - it ain't you.

do i need a permanent address in britain?

A British credit card, I suppose? Technically, yes, in practice, it depends. If you have had a British bank account for more than a year, have a good credit rating, and at least £1000 is paid into your account every month, applying for a credit card through the bank will require little formalities, and they will use the address the bank has. You just need to be able to receive the papers to sign at that address.\n\nIf you don't have a UK bank account, no chance.


Is it illegel to own a copy of The Anarchist's Cookbook? If so, what is the punishment?

The Anarchist's Cookbook is a joke, actually.  Most of the stuff in there is common knowledge, and a lot of it was totally made up (Smoking a banana peel?  Come on now).\n\nSo no.  It's not illegal in any sense of the word.  Nor is it really dangerous.\n\nHeck, you can buy it on AMAZON!!!


Should children born to single mothers bother to find out  where their other half come from?

I think so. Unfortunately not all adults are mature and I don't think you should depend on one parent to give you a fair assessment of the other parent.  It's quite apparent that the two didn't get along, other wise they would still be together or at least be friends for the sake of both being productively in their child's life.

how do i check temporary internet files to see what site the person before me was on?

You can go to the History tab on your browser.  i am going to assume that you have Internet Explorer, so if you look at the toolbar on your browser you should see an icon that looks like a clock with an arrow pointing down on the one side.  This is your history button.  Once you click history you can sort by day... then by site.  You will have a list of all the visited websites that day.\n\nIf you would like to view the cookies from each website, then you would go into your cookies folder... located in my documents>Temporary Internet Files>Cookies.\n\nHappy Snooping!


Why do early spring flowers tend to be more yellow, than any other colour, after the snowdrops?

Spring flowers are beautiful aren't they?  The reason the majority of them are yellow is reproduction.  What color are you most likely to see from a distance?  Yellow is very bright and attracts bees and hummingbirds, for example, which then pollinate them.  Nature is pretty incredible if you really think about it.  Hope that answers your question.  Have a nice day!

What is the difference between a legal seperation vs a trial seperation?

a legal separation is a formal separation on paper, which divides assets, creates a schedule for kids, etc like a formal divorce; however, you are still married.  A divorce can be filed without any separation; in his state, once the divorce is filed, 6 months wait must pass before the divorce is finalized.   God bless you.

Whenever I turn on computer, a box pops up called common. How do I get rid of it?

Without more information I have to assume either there's a registry problem or you have spyware or a virus on your computer.\n\nIf it's a registry issue, Norton Utilities may be your answer, they can fix most of your registry or virus issues.\n\nIf it's spyware, try Ad-Aware SE and Spybot Search and Destroy, both programs are free, and both do a good job cleaning up your computer of unwanted software.


Close minded people are those that aren't willing to consider that other people have differing beliefs and they may be correct sadly many of them seem to be religious fanatics that are unwilling to even think logically about certain issues. \nOpen minded people are willing to consider all possible ideologies or beliefs without judgement. They are generally more secure in themselves.\nI happen to believe in god and Jesus, but i willing consider the ideas of all faiths, and i would advise everyone to try that. It helps you to see life through the eyes of others, and that is all i meant in my definition of closed minded. I just hate seeing christians being so unchristian in jumping on people with different beliefs. I thought generally having a christian ideal would endow a sense of kindness in most, but hardliners seem to never understand that. I hope personally i didn't insult anyone, because i personally feel that whatever makes you feel closer to god or whatever you believe in that you should go for it and let others do the same.

was any new alliances made last night on survivor and especially with terry?

Terry tried to get Danielle and Courtney in his alliance. Courtney agreed that she wanted to go to the final 3 with him and Danielle. They agreed to vote off Aras. \n\nHowever, Cirie spoke with Danielle, letting her know that they should stay in their alliance with Aras and vote off Courtney. Shane was not aware of this conversation (he wanted to vote off Danielle).\n\nCourtney, to most of the contestants surprise, was voted off!! YEAH!!! LOL\n\nAnyway, as of now, the strongest alliance is:\nCirie, Danielle, and Aras\n\nTerry is on his own, and Shane will probably be the one to go is Terry wins the immunity again. *sighs*\n\nI WANT TERRY GONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i used to have an old email address how can i get my emails from that address using a different computer?

You will have to install browser software on the new computer if it doesn't already have it. After that, if you still have an account, you can look your email up as a guest. For example, on  AOL you go to the sign on screen, click on guest, type in your screen name and password, and you're connected. Good luck.

am interested in trading penny stocks and micro cap stocks are there any really good websites to use?

I like to watch volume and cetain trends in the marketplace.  I also watch the OTC news bulletin for interesting articles and business ideas.


I want to find friends. But I don't know what site is better to choose.?

lola, honey, sites??  My first question to you is "Why internet websites?"  Real friends that you can go shopping with or go to the movies with, in my humble opinion, are much preferable to online friends. \n\nYou go about finding good online friends much the same way as you would finding real world friends.  Think about the activities/hobbies that you like to do and join groups associated with those hobbies.    \n\nYahoo Groups is an excellent example.\n\nYahoo, also, has many health related groups if you have health related issues and would like to find friends for support.  \n\nThere is also Internet Relay Chat that can be downloaded and will give you access to millions of internet chat rooms. \n\nAlways, any where you go, be very careful about the online friends you choose.  The Internet allows people to be anyone they choose.  Deception is prevailent.  Be careful!!


hi, dose anybody know the thermal conviction of the air ? thank you?

Thermal convection involves the transfer of heat away from something warm by action of the air in contact with it.  This occurs because the air near the object is heated by direct contact with it.  As a gas, the air molecules move faster when heated and drive the nearby molecules farther apart.  This makes the number of molecules in any particular volume become less that the more distant, cooler air.  Thus the density of the heated air becomes less, making it buoyant compared with the cooler air.  Thus, gravity makes the warm air rise away from the warm object, carrying away some of its heat.  The process continues as new, cooler air then comes into contact with the warm object.

start taking vitimin B complex pills...and a B6 pill too.  B6 is suppose to help with headaches, but it works best when you take all the B's...I don't remember why though.  Make sure to drink lots of water, more than 8 glasses a day.  If you want to spice it up...use something like Crystal light or some flavoured waters, but make sure you have lots of it.  There are things on the market to smell that are suppose to help get rid of headaches, but I have never tried them.  I cold cloth on the back of the next feels great when you have a headache.  Make sure that you are getting enough sleep, lack of sleep is horrible for headaches.  And, eating...relatively properly will help too.\nI hope these websites help too.  I have been suffering from headaches for years and I feel your pain...haha.  \nGood luck!\n:)


How do I remove SysProtect from my computer?

I used the Yahoo Antispy program, Norton Internet Security, and the Microsoft Antispyware beta program, and nothing worked to get rid of the SysProtect popups.  I decided to change browsers, and downloaded the Mozilla Firefox web browser.  Once it loaded, I had it check for cookies, and the Sysprotect had installed cookies that were previously undetectable on my system.  I had Firefox clean all cookies, and then went back to Internet Explorer.  I have not had a SysProtect popup since.  You can download the Firefox program at www.mozilla.com/firefox

What kind of programming language that Microsoft use to create windows XP ?

Windows XP was written in c++\n\nI believe the original windows was written in assembly code to  made it fast and small install. but they moved to c because it helps to reduce number of bugs and make it more stable. the downside of all of this is that it increases the install size quite a lot!\n\nI think I read somewhere that xp was over 15 million lines of code! :/

Actually BH3 does exist.  It is a very common reagent used in the hydroboration of double boonds, and in the reduction of amides to amines.  After adding across double bonds the borane can be hydrolysed to the alcohol, effectively completing the addition of water across a double bond.  Improtantly this addition is completed in an anti-Markovnikov manner, because in BH3 the H are electronegative, whereas in water they are electropositive. \n\nBecause of its instability it exists as a dimer, B2H6, where elextrons are shared between each of the monomers.  It is a gas, but is used in chemistry as solutions in THF, pyridine or dimethyl sulfide.  In these solutions the lone pair of electrons from the oxyge,, nitrogen or sulfur, are donated to the empty p orbital of boron, stabilising the BH3:solvent complex.\n\nBorane chemistry is a massive field and has enormous use in synthetic organic chemistry, with BH3 being exceptionally useful for a number of transformations and funcional group interconversions.\n\nI have used it many times, and it has been around for well over 50 years.  It can be purchased from many sources, including that listed below provided to demonstrate its commercial availability.\n\nIf you want more information let me know.\n\nI hope this helps.

Endurance from faith standpoint means what to you?

Endurance, in relation to Faith, is the power to sustain your belief in spite of the things that tempt you to doubt. I have discovered that the greater your faith is, the more trying and testing it will become to sustain it. If you endure the trials, your faith will come out shining. You cannot achieve a greater faith in any other way.

What do you do if some guy is harrassing you?

Good lord I'm sorry you are going through this!  The authorities sound lame in your town...for shame on them!!\n\nI would suggest contacting the following in the largest city in your state because I'm sure they have the following organizations there:\n--abused women's service and other such orgs that help women in trouble( even if you haven't been abused yet) they can lead you in a good direction.  ask them about your legal rights and what to do if you are not being taken seriously.\n--teen and young adult groups that do the same\n--church services that can help with this(find a progressive not backwoods church..big city)  \n\n--civil right/liberties lawyers or free legal aid groups and ask them to advocate for you because you are not getting help for this. \n\nCan you talk to the chief of police?  speak honestly with them about how you are afraid for your life and that if something happened and nothing was done then it would not only be tragic but on the backs of the police departments lack of responsibility.  if they do nothing then in a sense they are enabling this creep to harass you.  \n\n--check out some copwatch groups.  groups that keep eyes on cops so they themselves are lawabiding and actually do the job they are supposed and not abuse the law.  again, civil liberty groups would know.  that way you can inform them of the lack of response by the cops so that if anything else happens you have proof and then more leverage. \n\nThere has got to be some source of support group or legal advice for something like this...what state do you live in??  try to answer back and I will look up some info for you?  this is serious and could get ugly if you don't have support.  \nJust watch your back and stay with people as often as you can so you are not vulnerable. If you don't have a roommate, get one!  Lights, dogs, security systems-whatever you need to feel safe in the meantime as you get help.   \n\n*last resort: Worse come to worse if no one takes you seriously after you try everything get some guy friends/brothers and well...have them pay him a visit some stormy night.  Nicely.  Capishe?\n\noh can you find out if he has a record or is on parole?  through the freedom of information act you can find this out.  if he does, he could be in some violation and you could anonymously report him or have him returned to wherever he crawled out from under..\n\nFor now, write back where you live and I can help you do research online.  I'm willing.  \npeace.\n\nHERE IS SOME INFO I FOUND FOR YOU: \nJUST CALL THEM AND TELL THEM YOUR SITUATION AND INSIST ON GETTING HELP.  TELL THEM YOU DON'T WANT TO END UP A STATISTIC.   \nhttp://www.aardvarc.org/dv/states/arkdv.shtml\nhttp://www.angelfire.com/me/Marshamellow/call.html\nhttp://www.usdoj.gov/ovw/\n\nTHESE SHOULD HELP FOR NOW.  JUST BE PROACTIVE, GET ON IT AND DON'T WAIT FOR OTHERS TO SAVE YOU.  WOMEN NEED TO LEARN TO SAVE THEMSELVES.  AND THAT'S OK.  REACH OUT BUT ALSO RELY UPON YOURSELF.  YOU COULD GET A CELL PHONE AND JUST SAVE YOUR GRANNIES PHONE FOR OUTGOING CALLS ONLY?? OR GET ANOTHER PRIVATE UNLISTED NUMBER AND AGAIN, LEAVE YOUR GRANNIES FOR OUTGOING ONLY.  HEY GOOD IDEA@!  TRY THAT.  \nMAKE SURE ALL YOUR LIGHTS AND LOCKS WORK WELL AROUND YOUR HOUSE AND LIKE THE OTHER GIRL SAID, GET A STUN GUN AND MAKE SURE YOU GET TRAINING ON IT.  DON'T WANT TO SHOCK YOURSELF! \nGOOD LUCK!!!


How long should it take you to get over an ex?

Its you who will decide how long you will let the hurt and pain be inside you. If you have the will, and the strength to move on in life, forget the past and start today as if you are born once more, Iam sure it wont take long. Its not that easy either. It may seem as if its ''forever'', and it will hurt you a lot trying to do it, but then thats the only way. Cry, cry it out when it pains. Dont suppress yourself. You will feel relieved. Get yourself involved, in whatever it is that you may have longed to do and...slowly you'll see happier and looking back with a smile.\n\ngood luck.

Help! Why it is important to have a college education if you take courses that are not toward your career?

College is not just set of courses. You can learn and read course paper at home. College teaches you team work, interacting with people and sometimes also teaches how to do things you absolutely don't like. You are learning a life's lesson at college. You can always choose course that go towards your career later.

I dont want to live with my parents anymore and I am 31 so how can I live in jail for a year to get away?

I'm sure you will not like living in a jail. You can't live in a jail unless you commit a crime anyway and if you do that then you'll have an even harder time finding a job and you'll just be set back even more. I know it sucks big time to still live with your parents. I understand that first hand but all I can tell you is do your best to find a job and stick with it and save as much of your money as you can. You can also check into any grant programs that can assist you with independent living.

How many German babies are named Adolf these days?

I don't think you're allowed to name your children that in Germany anymore.  Seriously.\n\nEDIT: I can't find any actual proof that the name "Adolf" is no longer allowed, but here's a link about the regulations in Germany (pertaining to naming a child).  It's the best one I could find in English.  They're a bit stricter with certain things in other countries, than here in America where you can name your kid "Kellogs," for example...

has anyone a remedy for ACID REFLUX   ive tried over the counter and prescription?

Digestive Enzymes - acid reflux is most often the case of not enough acid in the stomach leading to poor food digestion.  As the food sits their, fermentation occurs increasing the gas in your stomach.  When the gas releases, the acid in the stomach goes up into the esophagus with the gas - and you get the reflux and burn.  Try taking some multipurpose digestive enzymes with your meal (about 10 min prior to eating) and you should get some good results.  Find the plant based ones - not the animal based. The animal based enzymes don't work in as wide of a pH range.

difference between firewall and proxy in networking?

The word proxy means "to act on behalf of another," and a proxy server acts on behalf of the client and the server. All requests from the clients to the Internet go to the proxy server first. The proxy evaluates them, and if allowed, re-establishes the requests on the outbound side to the Internet. Likewise, responses or initial requests coming from the Internet go to the proxy server to be evaluated. The proxy then talks to the client. Both client and server think they are communicating with one another, but, in fact, are dealing only with the proxy.\n\nWhereas a firewall is a piece of hardware and/or software which functions in a networked environment to prevent some communications forbidden by the security policy.

If you've read the bible, did you read all of the books?  Even the ones that didn't make the cut?

Why does the Catholic Bible have more books than the Protestant Bible?\nThe Catholic Bible has 73 books, while the Protestant Bible has 66 book. Why?\n\nThe book known as the Bible was originally a various collections of Hebrew, Greek, Aramaic, and Chaldean (Daniel, Esther, and others were in Chaldean and not part of the Torah or Haftorah [The Law and the Prophets]) documents read by the early Christians in their worship. Some churches had some writings and others had other writings, but the Bible was not a whole book until the Council of Carthage in 397 A.D.\n\nAfter the Emperor Constantine forbade the persecution of Christians, they were able to emerge from the catacombs and freely associate. There followed a great deal of discussion of what was considered scripture. There were some books that they promoted as scripture that are not in the Bible today, such as the Gospel of Thomas or the Epistle of Barnabas.\n\nTo resolve this dilemma, the Church assembled the leading scholars and experts of that time in Carthage to decide what was really scripture. The document they produced was called The Canon of Scripture, and here is the text of this document:\n\n"[It has been decided] that nothing except Canonical Scriptures should be read in the church under the name of Divine Scriptures. But the Canonical Scriptures are: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, Deuteronomy, Josue [Joshua], Judges, Ruth, four books of Kings [1 and 2 Samuel, 1 and 2 Kings], Paralipomenon two books [1 and 2 Chronicles], Job, the Psalter of David [Psalms], five books of Solomon [Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, Song of Solomon, Wisdom, Ecclestiasticus or Sirach], twelve books of the [minor] prophets [Hosea, Joel, Amos, Obadiah, Jonah, Micah, Nahum, Habakkuk, Zephaniah, Haggai, Zechariah, Malachi], Isaias, Jeremias [includes Lamentations of Jeremiah and the words copied by his scribe Baruch], Daniel, Ezechiel, Tobias, Judith, Esther, two books of Esdras [Ezra, Nehemiah], two books of the Machabees. Moreover, of the New Testament: Four books of the Gospels, the Acts of the Apostles one book, thirteen epistles of Paul the apostle [Romans, 1 and 2 Corinthians, Galatians, Ephesians, Philippians, Colossians, 1 and 2 Thessalonians, 1 and 2 Timothy, Titus, Philemon], one of the same to the Hebrews, two of Peter, three of John, one of James, one of Jude, the Apocalypse of John. Thus [it has been decided] that the Church beyond the sea [Rome] may be consulted regarding the confirmation of that canon; also that it be permitted to read the sufferings of the martyrs, when their anniversary days are celebrated." \nThese writings were delivered to St. Jerome, the leading scholar in the Old Testament and ancient languages. St. Jerome together with the brothers of of his monastery painstakingly translated the writings into Latin, which was the universal language of the day. This first Bible was called the Biblia Vulgata of the Vulgate or Common Bible.\n\nDuring the rise of Protestantism, for various unsubstantiated reasons the following parts were removed from the Bible.\n\nThe Book of Tobit \nThe Book of Judith \nThe Wisdom of Solomon \nThe Book of Sirach [Ecclesiasticus] \nThe Writings of Baruch \nThe First and Second Books of the Macabees \nTwo Chapters of Daniel and the Song of the Hebrew Children in the fiery furnace (Daniel 3:25-90)\nConsequently, the Catholic Bible has 72 books and the Protestant Bible has 66. One interesting note is that the original King James version of the Bible had all the books and writings found in the Catholic Bible.


how much time does it take for a normal man to ejaculate ?


Question for Smokers...were you able to sneak off for a few puffs on your wedding day?

YOU CAN DO WHATEVER YOU WANT THAT DAY. ITS YOUR WEDDING. I DID IT ON MINE AND NOT ONE PERSON SAID ANYTHING TO ME. IF THEY DO JUST SAY THAT YOU ARE NERVOUS AND TO MIND THIER OWN BUSINESS. ITS NOT A BIG DEAL. ME AND MY HUSBAND BOTH DID IT. MAYBE OTHER GUESTS OR MEMBERS WILL JOIN YOU


If people tell me I am hot and have everything going for me, why don't I get hit on???

It's all about self-confidence, not what others tell you.  Don't think your hot because other people tell you, think it because you know it. (but not too much so, vanity is only good in small doses.)  work your way back into hitting on girls, go to a new bar and find girls that your not "really" interested in, and just try different approaches (don't go in looking for sex, but looking to find out how to be confident in your mannerisms), get comfortable talking to new girls, and then try on someone you actually like, and maybe good things will happen.  Eyes are the key, a woman's eyes will tell you everything.


Why do women have clitoris and men have penises?

the clitoris is the female equivalent to the male penis, or vice versa.  They both generate from the same embryonic tissue, and they are remarkably similar, lack for the size difference.  As for the "why" of the situation, there's no real answer.  Why do we have eyes?  Why is the sky blue?  There's no deep meaning here; men have penises to ejaculate semen into a female's birth canal.  Women have clitorises to serve as stimulus to have sex and procreate.\n\nI would say thank you for not saying 'clitorii', but you didn't even say 'clitorises'.  Doesn't anyone check their spelling before they post?


On which dates of the year do the Arctic and Antarctic zones have equal hours of daylight?

The Vernal and Autumnal Equinoxes, or the first day of Spring and Fall. Spring starts on either March 20th/21st and Fall begins on October 20th/21st.

what is the shearing strength of mild steel?

well, I don't know about the testing, but for design, you use 0.4Fy as your shear strength. If you have 36 ksi steel, then you need 14.5 ksi to create a shear failure. Don't know if that works forpunching holes; it's probably less. Good question.


How can we predict pregnancy beside checking it with some test packs?

10xsquaredyz minus 22x cubed yz. factor the polynomial?

I think you wrote 10x*2yz - 22x*3yz.  To factor this oyu must take out like terms by dividing.  You can see that both terms share a 2, y, z, and an x*2.  After the  division you get  2x*2yz( 5 - 11x).  I hope this helps.


What is the probability of rolling a perfect square with one roll of number cube.?

ok i'm not doing your homeowkr for you, but i'll help.  you're unclear about some things:  number cube?  you mean a six-sided die?  in that case, one roll can give you: 1,2,3,4,5, or 6.  which ones are perfect squares?  let's see: 1^2=1, 2^2=4, 3^3=9>6 therefore just 1 and 4 are perfect squares.  so what's the probability or rolling a 1 or a 4 out of the possibilities 1,2,3,4,5, or 6?\n\nprobability=what you want/what you CAN get.
