What is the longest anyone has gone without sleep?

Your question doesn't have a clear answer, unfortunately....and for a couple of reasons.  The longest anyone has ever lived without sleeping at all is about a week and a half to two weeks.  Sleeping being the main vehicle of the body's rebuilding and revitalizing processes, without it, there is no way for the body to recover from fatigue and damage.  \n\nThe body can survive on very little sleep, however there are side affects if this isn't done cautiously.  Hallucinations, confusion, disturbed bodily processes, and a very highly suspeptible rate for sickness follow those who dare to "cheat" sleep with the body.  Even with drug abusers where they claim to have not slept in weeks, the truth is that the body shuts down at certain points during their "drug induced conscious time periods" and the drug abuser probably didn't even realize it.  Sleep is so important that without certain measures taken, the body will, at some point, simply shut down and sleep out of pure necessity for survival.  The body is known for having a sense for survival that is sub-conscious to most people.  \n\nAll this is a bit misleading though.  One function of meditation is to take the body into a waking sleep, where the heart rate slows and the body recovers, just like it does in deep sleep.  The body can live much, much longer in this state and it has been proven to be a health promoting practice.  It is rumored that people have survived extremely long periods of time without ill affects by using certain meditation techniques in place of sleep.  But this is obviously not a normal practice and has not been made a place in modern science yet.\n\nSo the answer is a bit more than what you probably expected, but it should be more clear now.

wht are plasama state and how is it useful in fusion reactors?

Plasma states exist when matter is so hot that electrons are stripped from atoms leaving them ionized.  If plasma can be made hot enough it may simulate the conditions of the sun's interior where fusion of hydrogen is the principle producer of energy.  Fortunately, plasma being ionized can be controlled or bottled up in a fusion reactor using magnetic fields preventing the hot plasma from reaching and melting the chamber walls.  Plasma is so hot that the particles are traveling at great speeds and therefore collisions may occur that can cause nuclei to approach close enough to interact resulting in fusion and the release of energy.  Energy is released because the "nuclear glue" holding the fused particle together is less than the glue that held the individual particles together.  The excess glue is converted to energy using Einsteins equation E=mc2, where the glue represents a very small quantity of mass that produces a relatively large amount of energy.


Can I set up a home network using a wireless router?

Yes, you can!  Here is what I do.  I use my Internet cable (or DSL) box they give you when you get fast internet.  The back of your wireless router has several ports.  Simply put the ethernet cables from that device to your PCs or laptops.  I even have a 50 foot ethernet cable so I can move my laptop around.  You will have to use the wireless router software to configure the network according to your ISPs settings and your ISP can help you do that through their tech support

the basic priciples of operation, proses capabilities and design consideration of milling machine?


English originated from the Old Saxon language and related dialects brought to Britain by Germanic settlers from various parts of northwest Germany. The original Old English language was subsequently influenced by two successive waves of invasion. The first was by speakers of languages in the Scandinavian branch of the Germanic family, who colonised parts of Britain in the 8th and 9th centuries. The second wave was of the Normans in the 11th century, who spoke a variety of French.

What do you mean by 'these days'? Go back to history - whichever century you want - you will always find good & bad people!\n- Almost 2 centuries back - Kings ruled a majority of Indian states, thier subjects trusted them - but these kings cheated them by supporting the British. These kings trusted the British - You know what happened to them!\n- 20 Centuries back Jesus Christ trusted his followers - what happened\n- Let's go to the begining - GOD trusted ADAM - my boy dont eat that apple - what happened?\n\nSo my dear, there are always people whom you can trust & whom you cannot - even today there r quite a lot of people whom you can really count on - wish u all the best.

Will Tiger Woods Retire since he hasn't had a Off-Season?

Heck no, Tiger is raking in the money. He'll never retire as long as he has a chance to beat Jack Nicklaus's record for winning major championships. He also has a good shot at winning the most tournaments all time, which is currently held by I think Sam Snead at around 80. \n\nTiger wants to be the greatest ever, so he won't retire until he's exhausted all his skills to achieve that goal.


"Brad's drink", created in the summer of 1893, was later renamed Pepsi Cola in 1898 after the pepsin and cola nuts used in the recipe. In 1898, Caleb Bradham wisely bought the trade name "Pep Cola" for $100 from a competitor from Newark, New Jersey that had gone broke. The new name was trademarked on June 16th, 1903. Bradham's neighbor, an artist designed the first Pepsi logo and ninety-seven shares of stock for Bradham's new company were issued

what is life? What is the purpose of life? Why we live on earth and why we born in different families like   ?

PLEASE READ THIS FULLY\n\nPeople everywhere are asking the questions; "What is the purpose of life?" and "Why are we here?" \n\nMost of those who reflect or think about life in any detail will consider and ponder these questions. There are as many different answers to these questions as there are people asking the questions. Some would hold that the purpose of life was to acquire wealth. Yet suppose they were to acquire millions of dollars, what then would they claim is their purpose after doing so?\n\nIf the purpose of life is to become wealthy, there would be no purpose after becoming wealthy. \n\nThe fact is that when people approach their purpose here in this life from the aspect of only gaining wealth, after collecting the money they have dreamed of their lives loose purpose and then they live in restless tension suffering from a feeling of worthlessness.\n\nHow could wealth then be considered as the aim of life?\n\nCould the acquisition of wealth guarantee happiness? Of course not.\nWhen we hear of millionaires or members of their families committing suicide, how could we consider the purpose of life would be to gain great wealth?\n\nA child of 5 years would obviously prefer a new toy to a deposit slip for a million dollars.\nA teenager does not consider millions of dollars in the bank a substitute for movies, videos, pizza and hanging out with his friends. \nA person in their 80s or 90s would never consider holding on to their wealth in place of spending it to hold on to or regain their health.\n\nThis proves that money is not the main purpose at all the stages of one's life.\n\nWealth can do little or nothing to bring happiness to one who is a disbeliever in Almighty God, because regardless of what he or she would gain in this life they would always live in fear of what will happen to them in the end. They would wonder what would become of them and how they would end up.\n\nWealth and its accumulation as a purpose would be doomed to a temporary success at best and in the end it would only spell out self destruction.\n\nSo, what is the use of wealth to a person without belief? He would always fear his end and would always be skeptical of everything. He may gain a great material wealth but he would only lose himself in the end.\n\nWorship of the One True Almighty God of the Universe [Allah in Arabic] as a primary goal or aim in life provides a believer with everything he needs to succeed in both this life and the Next Life.\n\nThe word for total surrender, submission, obedience, purity of heart and peace in the Arabic language is "Islam". Those who try to perform these actions are called "MU-slims" [Islam-ERs]. \n\nTo a Muslim the whole purpose of life is "ibadah" or worship to the One True Almighty God on Terms and under His Conditions.\n\nThe term "worship" to a Muslim includes any and all acts of obedience to Almighty Allah.\n\nSo his purpose of life is a standing purpose; Worshipping Allah by accepting Allah's Will over his own.\nThis act of ibadah [worshipping, thanking and extolling the Greatness Almighty Allah on His Terms and Conditions] is for the Muslim, throughout his whole life regardless of the stage. Whether he is a child, adolescent, adult or aged person, he is seeking after the Will of the Almighty in all these stages.\nHis life here on earth although short, is full of purpose and is totally meaningful within the complete framework of total submission [Islam].\n\nSimilarly, in the Next Life as well, his faith, intentions, attitudes and good deeds will all be weighed into his account as favorable putting him in high esteem with his Creator and Sustainer.\n\nBecause Islam teaches that this life is only a test or trial for the individual to show him his true nature it is only natural that he would accept death as not so much an ending to everything but more as a beginning of the final and lasting life in the Hereafter.\n\nBefore entering int

"Growing up is learning" as exhibited through the characters of Scot and Jem Finch.\n4. Bringing up mother-less kids is a loving and balanced way as done by Atticus Finch.\n\nThere are a lot more really, if i sit to think of them. This is one of my favourite books.

How YahooAnswers works?How r these peolpe chosen to answer my Qs .How can I be sure of not facing fake answers

Yahoo Answers is like standing up in a crowd and screaming your question at the top of your lungs.\n\nEveryone can hear it and many will speak up with an answer.\n\nThe problem with this is that you will get some answers that you don't like, some answers that are outright wrong, and some answers that are exactly what you needed to know.\n\nIf you're asking about something that has a definitive answer, like what's the population of Brooklyn, you will likely be linked to sources that can back up the information  provided. Check these links and verify what you've been told.\n\nIf you're asking for advice, it's a perfect opportunity for you to use your brain and judgement. Yahoo Answers is a great place to find information, but you're not completely off the hook, you still have to think.


A 'dry socket' is a lay term for an analomy that can occur after the extraction of a tooth.  If the extraction site, or socket, looses the blood clot that is part of the healing process, the site is refered to as 'dry'.  The pain and infection that can result, are due to exposed bone within the socket.  Smoking, carbonated beverages, and negitive pressure in the mouth (ie, sucking through a straw,) are thought to increase the risk of a dry socket.


what is the difference between virus and bacteria?

First off jamesmusik84's is completely wrong. Please don't consider any of it. The second answer is along the right path, except I have no idea what the reference to antibiotic is suggesting and some viruses have RNA genomes but many more have DNA genomes. And as far as bacteria go, both RNA and DNA are present inside there cells.\n\nSo, the answer to your question. Let's start this way: Bacteria are small single-celled organisms. Unllike eukaryotic cells (like the ones that make up animals, plants, fungi and many single-celled organisms such as yeasts) which package their genetic material (DNA) in membrane structures called nuclei, bacteria (which are also referred to as prokaryotes) don't have a nucleus. Bacteria also don't have other organelles which are found in eukaryotes, such as endoplasmic reticulum, mitochandria, chloroplasts, golgi bodies, etc. But like eukaryotes, bacteria do have an outer lipid membrane.\n\nSo, you can think of bacteria of little fluid filled sacs. Along with eukaryotic, bacteria are an example of "cells" which are the smallest unit of living things on earth.\n\nViruses, on the other hand, do not have an outer membrane. They don't the capacity to make their own proteins. They don't have the capacity ot replicate or metabolize on their own -- of which bacteria (and eukaryotes) do. It's for this reason that we don't consider viruses "living" things. Viruses have to "infect" a cell -- injecting its genetic material inside -- and use the cell's metabolic machinery to reproduce.\n\nViruses are essentially small protein "capsules" that have a piece of genetic information packaged inside. Because viruses are required to infect a cell to propogate themselves, they are classified as obligate intra-cellular pathogens.\n\nViruses tend to only infect specific cell types. Some infect bacteria. Some infect plants. Others infect animals. The specificity of what a virus can infect is goes beyond whether they can infect bacteria, plants or animals. Usually viruses have to infect a very specific animal, plant or bacteria. And even in the case of viruses that infect animals and plants, not only do the infect specif animals, they are usually limited to a few cell types whithin that animal.\n\nTake HIV for example: to the best of my knowledge HIV only infects humans (i.e. the "H" in HIV -- Human Immunodeficiency Virus). But it doesn't just infect any human cell. HIV only infects white blood cells -- specifically a class of white blood cells called T cells (there are many other "classes" of white blood cells including such things as B cells, NK cells, neutrophils, basophils, eosinophils and macrophages).\n\nI hope this sheds some light on the matter.

how do you start your own adult entertainment business for exotic dancers.?

The setting up & running part of the business aside, I think the very first thing you hsould do is look into what sort of permits you will need from the city. Some cities only allow this sort of business in certain areas (zoning) while others have some VERY specific ordinances & permit issues that have to be adhered to. Once you determine the feasibility of how long it will take to get yourself set up properly with the city - as well as if you will need to open in an area other than the one you might have wished to - then it is just a matter of getting the business side of things in order, locating & securing a building, furnishing it & hiring dancers.\n\nGood luck!

I live in southern NJ, should I leave a steady low-paying job(w/bens) to be a Real Estate appraiser?

The real estate market is cooling off and so is the mortgage industry.  Proceed with caution.  That said, if you are in a steady low-paying job, you will always regret the chances that you never took.  Besides real estate appraisers are needed during foreclosures also.  I would think that they are not as affected by the market as realtors or mortgage brokers.  Best bet is to have a few months of income saved up.

I'm a painter & I was told that I should get a painter contractor license is that important& how to get one?

Well, Im a painting contractor.  I am licensed.  It does matter what kind of license you get.  You dont need a permit, but you need a license.  I am a master at booking work.  I learned soo fast.  But, you know what?  My license helped me when my business was crippled.  I was involved in a motorcycle accident and I couldnt do much.  Then, I quickly got my license and I started getting work.  You have to fill out for a "Home Improvement" License.  Dont get the ones that say that you are a painter.  Its like a certificate that shows that you know how to paint.  Those come from city hall, and costs like 5 buxx.  You need to pay like 200-300 depending on the size of your company.  Email me for the rest because it will help you with work.

Murder-you have no right to inflict harm unto another living soul. But sin and suicide are almost equally as bad. There is always an alternative.

According to Revelation in the Bible, an angel will throw something like a mountain into the sea.  That could very well be a comet or meteorite. \nThat would happen before the return of Jesus Christ when the earth really starts to have trouble according to Revelation.

Why do men always want what they can't have when the best thing is looking them right in the face?

The short answer to me is that men are bred to be competitive. Boys grow into being men by being introduced by older boys or men what is pretty or cute. So often, grown-up boys go for the wrong person instead of listening to their heart. \n\nMy story is that I got scared of being happy. \n\nThanks for playing "I hope I got this rite" (jk!)

Can an Octopus bite you with it's beak? Can you really suck the poison out of a snake bite to keep from dying?

Of course it can.  Most likely it will shy away from you, but it IS possible.\n\nAs far as sucking venom, it appears that treatment has fallen out of favor, but not because it harms the "sucker" but because it increases trauma in the wound area.\n\nInterestingly, from the FDA site below, it says sucking has fallen out of favor, but the CDC site below says it's OK!  It also says that venom can be ingested orally with no ill effects.\n\nCDC: Do suck and squeeze - as much venom as possible directly from the wound. Venom is protein and can be taken orally with no ill effects.


What is the common difference of this arithmetic sequence?

Each number is 3 larger than the previous.


This is actually very easy to answer, based on evolution the egg had to come first. Evolution works like this: There are slight changes in the genetic information of the sex cells (i.e. eggs and sperm) of individuals that are passed on to the offspring of any two parents. These changes in the genetic makeup are called mutations. Mutations can either have: 1) A deleterious effect on the offspring (genetic disorders may arise, many times these are lethal); 2) sometimes these mutations may be advantageous, making an individual more fit than its neighbors (this is sometimes referred to as conferring an advantage); or 3) these mutations can have no effect, making no change from parent to progeny.\n\nIn the case of the chicken, it must have evolved from something else that became less fit than the chicken and eventually becoming extinct. The chicken became a chicken from this other organism through mutations that built up over time in subsequent generations. However, whatever the genetic makeup that finally became defined as a chicken, that individual was first conceived and developed in an egg before being hatched. The egg and sperm that fused to produce the chicken didn't bypass the period of gestation within an egg that had developed in the bird family millions of years before the chicken came along.\n\nSo the simple answer to this question is the egg came first -- unless you believe in fairy tales?


Why can't conservatives really learn to conserve more?

If you are talking about conserving energy - this will not solve the energy problem. It's only part of the solution. What really solves the problem is drilling and refining our own sources of energy off of our coasts and in ANWR - but that won't happen because tree hugging pus*y liberals like yourself would rather block domestic energy production and then whine about gas prices being too high. That's why there hasn't been an oil refinery built in this country for over 30 years. That's why they have brownouts in California. All because of the environmental movement and their hatred of Capitalism. Raising the supply of energy is a sure fire way to make sure we never run out.\n\nThis is true of ANY commodity. Let's take Coca Cola for example. The reason a 12oz can of Coke only costs 75 cents from a vending machine is because that is the price that the market will bear. Now, close every Coca-Cola bottling plant in the country except one and keep the same amount of vending machines - what do you think would happen to the price? It would skyrocket because there wouldn't be enough Coke to fill the vending machine demand.\n\nOn the other hand, if you openend up Coca-Cola bottling plants on every steet corner in America - there would be so much Coke available that the price would plummet because they would have more Coca-Cola than vending machines to dispense them.\n\nThe same would be true whether you are talking about energy, Coca-Cola, steel, guns, butter or newspapers.\n\nInstead of spouting off from your a$$, maybe you should learn some Economic facts first.


The Sri Yantra also called Sri Chakra is a beautiful and complex sacred geometry used for worship, devotion and meditation. It has been in use for thousands of years and it's origin is unknown.The central figure is composed of nine interlocking triangles. Every triangle is connected to the others by common points and is the reason why it is so difficult to draw correctly.\nPlease have a look at the animated construction at the site referred as you scroll down in it.


It's  From "A Death in the Family" by James Agee.\nThe full quote is\n\n"How far we all come. How far we all come away from ourselves. You can never go home again." \n\nIt's a story about a family dealing with the accidental death of the father.  See my source link to read more.\n\n(One interpretation:  Once you grow up and have your own life, even if you physically return to your childhood house, you can't return to that place of innocence and safety -- it's never "home" as it once was because you are a different person.)


well... I dont think genetically it means you will be. \n\nBut if your loony mom raises you all those years and there isn't much other familial influence, i would say you have good chances of exhibiting nut behaviors and not think and act properly.


wt's the value of 2^4 in java ? can nyone explain the working of ^ symbol in Java ?

When both operands are numeric, ^ in Java is a bitwise exclusive OR (otherwise known as XOR).  In binary terms, 2^4 is the same as 00000010 XOR 00000100 which results in 00000110 (6).  This is unless the ^ operator is overloaded in which case you'd have to refer to the overloaded method for XOR.  If you are not familiar with XOR, XOR returns TRUE when both operands are not equal, and FALSE when both are equal.


Can anyone help me with the best workout schedule?

You definitely shouldn't skip the workout because you will feel better and be healthier if you don't.\nI am an aerobics instructor and I know from seeing many different people come and go that the best work out is one that works for your life no matter how crazy it may seem.  So, find what works for you as far as when to do what.  Just remember that if weight-loss is your goal, you don't want to skimp on the weight training because the more muscle you have, the more fat you will burn.  I have also recently read that it is just as effective to workout three times a day for ten minutes at a time as it is to workout one time for thirty minutes.  In fact doing the 3 time a day thing tends to jumpstart one's metabolism.  \n     Also, I always eat before working out so that I will have energy!  Just don't eat anything too big or too heavy.  I tend to eat a bowl of cereal,small peanut butter sandwich or a granola bar if I'm on the go.

I am currently designing my company's web page on yahoo geocities.  Can I use clipart downloaded from the web?

Yes. As long as the site you are downloading from is specifically a clip art site, you can use it for your web site.\n\nHowever, always read each site's terms of usage so you know what you can do with the clip art. Some clip art sites are very strict about what you can or can't do with them. For example, some clip art sites will require you to link back to them if you use their graphics. Other sites may not allow you to use their stuff for commercial projects. \n\nSo have fun creating your web page, but just make sure you read a site's guidelines before using their clip art! :-)\n\nIf you need a clip art site where you don't have to worry about using their graphics at all, you can check out:

What is the MOST important thing a 17 yr. old should know a week after being diagnosed with a nonverbal LD?

The most important thing to know is that you made it to 17 without this knowledge and without special support. Think what you can accomplish with the support and assistance you deserve. Most psychologists/psychiatrists who can accurately diagnose this kind of learning disability would also communicate with the parents, the counselors, and the teachers about the modifications necessary for you to learn most effectively. Are you sure that yours is not going to do this?


What is defragment means in computer basis?

When you save and erase files, one of the objectives of the software that manages your disk is to use as much of contiguous available space as possible.  This means that when you erase a file, the space occupied by that file is available for future saves.  Over time the disk begins to have lots of little open spaces since every file you save (or delete) has different sizes. The next time you do a save, starting at the beginning of the disk, the disk manager begins to fill the little open spaces with fragments of the file you're saving.   This means that, while the disk is efficiently used, from a space perspective, any given file is a collection of fragments spread all over the disk.  The disk manager has to maintain a file of the all the locations of the fragments each saved file is made up of.   This takes up a lot of time and additional space.  When you open the file, the disk manager has to collect and assemble all the pieces of the file.  This takes even more time and processor cycles, relatively speaking.  So you may in fact see your computer running slower and slower as fragmentation becomes more and more severe.\n\nDefragmentation software does exactly that.  Starting at the beginning of the disk, it opens each successive file, collecting all their fragments, and writing the entire file out to a block of open space sufficiently large to contain the entire file in one contiguous block of space.  Then all the spaces used by that file are available for rewriting other defragmented files.  This continues until all files are re-combined.  Then the defragmentation software begins to re-organize the now defragmented files in some predetermined way;  typically opertaing system files are located at the beginning of the disk to take advantage of the fact that the read-write heads of the disk are generally parked at the beginning of the disk so the read time is minimized when you turn you computer on.  Also because OS-related files aren't normally modified and re-written by users.  Next the Defrag software starts to store Application software, also since those files are also not typically opened, modified and saved by the user.  Last the defrag mgr will save your files....photos, songs, word processing files and spreadsheets, etc.  Files that you are more likely to open, modify and re-save.


Who said, "Death, hunger, and despair, all from the comfort of your easy chair"?

Perhaps you are thinking of this quote:\n\n"Massacre, torture, and black despair; / Reading it all in my easy-chair."\n\nThat quotation is from the poem "Theology in Extremis" by Sir Alfred Comyn Lyall (1835-1911).  The poem was first published in 1889.  Hope this helps. :-)


Why are we having all the hoopla about the word Christmas versus holiday etc. No holiday without Christmas.?

As an evangelical Christian (speaking only for myself), I can honestly say that I think most people are getting way too worked up over this issue.\nThe reality is that much of what we associate with Christmas in America (trees, lights, shopping, Santa, etc), has little to do with Jesus or the Bible; and no, Dec 25th is not a Biblical date.\n\nUnfortunately, people (who might or might not be followers of Jesus Christ), tend to get very outspoken about their 'faith' when the issues involve tradition or political policies, but flatly ignore Jesus' commands to share the Gospel, help the poor, etc.\n\nI do think that much of the Christian community's public reaction to this issue is a result of frustration with our "political correctness"-obsessed society.  We are under increasing pressure to keep our beliefs to ourselves (although our God and our consciences clearly tell us to do the opposite).  We often feel that we're being asked to concede our 'free speech' rights in order to avoid offending someone, while also being asked to tolerate other people's statements that are very offensive to us.  All the frustration comes out in these highly-publicized and 'easy' issues.\n\nBottom line:\nIt's easier and less controversial to say "Jesus is the Reason for the Season", than to say "God came to earth as a man, died on the Cross in payment for your wrong-doing, and rose to life again so that you can have eternal life with God."


all around the web you can see "...an small island" and "...a small island". Which is correct?

a small island. Because the next word starts with a constanant not a vowel. If the next word started with a vowel, you would use "an".

Yeah, i think it is possible, i heard of this one experiment, this guy kept trying to light matches.

He had to then put a match in a controlled enviroment, then he light it.\n\nI think he is being nominated for the noble peace prize


I've been out of an abusive relationship for 2 years, but am still haunted by it. Is there anyway to let it go

Have you tried counselling? It might seem quite daunting first of all, but it sounds like talking to someone impartial could help. The pain will stop when you learn to recognise that you have been through a ordeal and you need to accept some form of help. It's good that you are in another relationship; if your boyfriend is supportive and understands that you need time to get over what has happened.\n If you find yourself becoming anxious or upset, you could try Bach Flower Remedies (the Rescue Remedy is good), they help relieve a lot of ailments, such as insomnia etc. Most of all, recognising that there is a problem is half way to solving it. Talk to people that you trust and can confide in; and if things don't get easier, seriously consider counselling as a means to get over things. Good luck!!


Total and utter world domination of intellectual thought


Do you think all living things deserve to live?

Tough call, even if the question was about all humans not just all living things.\nZen monks would place rings on their staffs in order than they could jangle and allow small lifeforms to get out of their way so as not to be stepped on.\nTheir are no rings small enough to warn microbes and I am not sure that we should avoid killing some bacteria what might spoil our food or make our children sick.  (Do you wash your hands?)\nAnd what about those things which are not exactly alive?  Like viruses?\nWe do not kill every bug which enters our homes.  Some people are fanatical about this and others live with spiders and ants crawling all over the place.  Most of us would kill lifeforms we believe to be a threat to us or our families.  Some might even capture and release some species (including mice and larger lifeforms).\nSome things to consider include:  Are you affected by commercials which try to make you believe that you need to give someone money to buy a product which will kill some lifeforms to make you healthier or happier?  What happens to the lifeforms that become resistant?  Do you really want polio and smallpox living among humans?  How about 'skeeter and the west Nile virus?  or Maleria?\nLife is not simple.  Not for bugs.  Not for humans.\nAt least humans can think about what they are doing before they make a choice.

You may have read the gossip sweeping the Internet on the origin of the word picnic. Some claim that picnic is derived from lynching parties of blacks. This is incorrect.\n\nInstead, the origin on the word picnic is French (piquenique) and was invented long before the atrocities towards blacks took place in America. This French word - piquenique - signifies an outing with food - similar to the word's meaning in English. At these piqueniques, the attendees would all bring food to the occasion, similar to what we call potlucks today. The outdoor concept of a picnic did not originate until the 19th century.\n\nSo, how did this word originate? We are unsure what the word pique actually means. There are two options: leisurely eating (picking) or a delicacy of food. Nique was selected since it rhymed with Pique.\n\nHistorians have found this French word in references outside of the French language as early as 1748 and into English by around 1800.


what is the last religion sent by GOD for humans?

ISLAM is the last religion sent by the GOD. The holy Quran says so. GREAT TESTIFIER.\nOther religion like Christianity, Judaism, Hinduism was meant only for a particular period and place, whereas ISLAM is meant for all mankind irrespective of place and time. It will be there till Prophet Jesus comes back and will lead a life as a Muslim. Thereafter all the human beings will become Muslims and will worship only one GOD.

What happens if you have two start codons in a row or what happens if you have a start in the middle of a gene

Initiation of translation depends on the sequence around the start codon as well. The translation machinery looks for a consensus sequence that stabilizes binding. I believe false starts can lead to aberrant transcripts, which would be degraded. The start methionine may be the first in the mRNA transcript, but doesn't have to be. As previously mentioned, an AUG in the open reading frame codes for methionine.

According to Wikipedia:\n\n* 35% punctuality of payment in the past\n* 30% capacity used, i.e., ratio of current revolving debt (e.g. credit card balances) to total available revolving credit (e.g. credit limits)\n* 15% length of credit history\n* 10% types of credit used (installment, revolving, consumer finance)\n* 10% recent search for credit and/or amount of credit obtained recently\n\nActually the more credit cards you have, (and keep up to date on payments) the better for your credit score. You should never be over 75% of Credit Limit, to increase your credit score.

Are there any movies where the aliens win?

The modern American alien/monster movie was born in what many film history textbooks refer to as the "Return to Myth" era, which many believe continues today. It is defined by the "quinesential battle of good versus evil"...which I personally find tired and is merely used as an excuse to go back on all of the insights provided to us by Mr. Shakespere (I say this, because all of these monsters are really just abstract representations of human/societal characteristics). The bottom line is that, as long as the alien invaders represent a mennace to our society *ahem*, then they will always be defeated by the purity and justice of our American resistence. Yes...it's just the Cold War that won't go away, venting itself out in entertainment. We'll get over it someday, and the monsters might start winning again. (King Kong...almost. At least he got the girl.)\n\nGood versus evil aside...E.T.?

do retarded people get offended when we make fun of them, or don't they know the difference?

It does not matter whether they can understand or not. It is hurting the person doing the teasing. It's very bad for the soul because you set yourself above the target. This is a form of pride. When you were first disgusted with the film, that was your conscience talking. When you started to compromise the "voice" inside, it stopped. This is what the Bible terms "searing your conscience with a hot iron". Not to that extreme, but more and more steps will make that "voice" inside you grow dim.


Is it against the law (an invasion of privacy) for a hotel to ask for a guest's mailing address?


Why, if so many people are unplease with it, don't you do something to change the Government?

Well we kinda do every November.  It's called an election and that's how we decided to structure our electoral process.  There are mechanisms to impeach members of the administration but you'd need to do it in the order of succession.  At this point, it would take too long to get this administration out.  Remember how long the Clinton impeachment took?\n\nPeople here seem to forget that there were actual criminal proceedings against the Clintons.  Bush really hasnt done anything that's illegal.  You might not like his foreign policy, but that dislike probably doesn't extend too far beyond Iraq since that's ALL that's covered by the mainstream media.\n\nHow about what the Bush administration did for the Pakistan refugees after the earthquake?  The approval ratings of Americans skyrocketed after that.

Don't let these people mislead you.  On average, having more education results in better life outcomes along many domains of interest, starting with monies earned.  That does not mean that you cannot succeed without a high school diploma or college degree- it does mean, though, that an MD will be much more likely to succeed than someone with a GED. \n\nIf you are asking about the marginal benefit of obtaining say, a master's degree over a bachelor's degree- there are still often benefits, but they do become more limited after a point, so it depends on your life circumstances.

Why does nascar call grand national cars stock cars?

Back in the early days of NASCAR, they actually did race stock cars... That is, cars you could buy right off the showroom floor, with very few modifications for performance or safety.\n\nOver the years, as cars got bigger and engines more powerful, there were more accidents, and more drivers injured or killed. NASCAR started changing the rules to make the cars safer and more competative.  First, they required seat belts and roll bars, then full roll cages. They went from gas tanks to fuel cells. They restricted the horsepower of the engines and made other modifications to make the cars stronger and safer. \n\nOver the last 50 years, the race cars have evolved into what you see today... A completely hand-built racing machine that somewhat resembles a factory production car.  \n\nYou can find more information on the cars and the history behind them on the NASCAR web site.

I have oily skin and everytime that I get a pimple, it leaves a dark spot. How can I removed them?

I agree with the answers that say not to pop them.  Here is some food for thought.  The red spots are actually inflamation.  Anytime you have a red spot on your body from whatever cause....it's usually inflamation.  So a good way to combat this is to find ways to stop inflamation in your body.  Now, i had acne for years and people would tell me that the food I ate didn't matter.  However, I think that is BS.  One way to regulate inflamation is by trying to control your blood sugar, eating foods rich in Omega 3 fatty acids (good fat), and avoiding Omega 6 fatty acids (saturated fat).  \n\n1.  Always eat the meat or protien part of your meal first.  This will slow down digestion and help prevent a blood sugar "spike."  Also, look at the glycemic load of the carbs you are eating.  What I mean by this is look at how fast your body converts this to sugar.  There are many tables you can download on the net.  \n\n2.  Omega 3 fatty acids will give your skin the most radical change in looks in as short as three days.  They do all kinds of things to your body that I don't have time to go into.  Yes, this works even if you have oily skin.  Sources of Omega 3's - Fish (Salmon is the best), Flaxseed, nuts, olive oil, avacado, etc.\n\n3.  Avoid Omega 6 fatty acids - you do need these but you want a decent ratio of Omega 6 to Omega 3s.  Unfortunately in our society of McDonalds and Pizza, people have the ration backwards and get too much Omega 6's which causes stress on your body and then inflamation.  \n\nNot only will this strategy give you better looking skin but it will also lead to felling better and being healthy in general.  I recommend buying a coupld of books if this is a real problem for you.

why would a heart attack patient cut his sternum wires out of chest?

I would recommend a psych evaluation - s/he may be depressed, or maybe the trauma made the person react in this way when s/he normally would not.  either way, it doesn't sound safe, so someone professional should talk to him/her and find out how to keep the person safe until things improve!

The date December 25th, came from the Romans when the Juian calendar proclaimed in 46 C.E. that the winter solstice was December 25th.  (It was later chnged to December 21st.) The pagan Romans celebrated the winter solstice.  Yes the Catholics took over Rome and adopted the partying and claimed it was their holiday. Many christmas traditions were taken from pagan traditions.

Does anyone know anything on John A Mcdonald?

Full name: Sir John Alexander Macdonald\nDate of Birth: January 11, 1815 \nPlace of Birth: Glasgow, Scotland \nSpouses: Isabella Clark & Susan Agnes Bernard \nProfession: lawyer \nPolitical Party: Conservative \n\n\nThe Right Honourable Sir John Alexander Macdonald, GCB, QC, PC (January 11, 1815 – June 6, 1891) was the first Prime Minister of Canada from July 1, 1867 – November 5, 1873 and October 17, 1878 – June 6, 1891. He was born in Glasgow, Scotland.\n\nWhile there is some debate over his actual birthdate, January 11 is the official date recorded and January 10 is the day Macdonald celebrated it. His parents, Hugh Macdonald and Helen Shaw, met in Scotland in 1811. After the failure of his father's business ventures, his family immigrated to Canada in 1820 along with thousands of others seeking affordable land and promises of new prosperity.\n\nMacdonald did prosper, becoming a lawyer in 1836 and earning the esteem of many in his defence of American raiders in the Rebellions of 1837. In 1843, at the age of 28, he married his cousin, Isabella Clark (1811 - 1857). They had two children: a son John who died at the age of one, and a second son Hugh John who went on to become premier of the Province of Manitoba. Ten years after the passing of his wife, in 1867, the year of Canadian Confederation, he married Susan Agnes Bernard (1836-1920). They had one daughter, Margaret Mary Theodora Macdonald (1869-1933).\n\n\nPolitical Rise\nIn 1843 Macdonald exhibited his first interest in politics. He was elected as alderman of the City of Kingston, Ontario. The next year he accepted the Conservative party's nomination for a seat in the Legislative Assembly of what was then called the Province of Canada but has since been split into the provinces of Ontario and Quebec. Winning the seat easily, Macdonald was now a player in the political scene.\n\nHe gained the recognition of his peers and in 1847 was appointed Receiver General by William Henry Draper's administration. However, Macdonald lost this distinction when Draper's government lost the next election. He left the Conservatives, hoping to build a more moderate and palatable base, leading to the creation, in 1854, of the Liberal-Conservative Party under the leadership of Sir Allan McNab. Within a few years, the Liberal-Conservatives would attract all of the old Conservative base as well as some centrist Reformers. The Liberal-Conservatives came to power in 1854 and under the new administration Macdonald was appointed Attorney-General. In the next election Macdonald continued his rise in politics by becoming Joint Premier of the Province of Canada with Sir Étienne-Paschal Taché of Québec for the years 1856 and 1857.\n\nIn the election of 1858, the Macdonald-Cartier government was defeated and they resigned as Premiers. (Taché had resigned the previous year, with Sir George-Étienne Cartier taking his place). In an interesting piece of politics, the Governor General of Canada asked Cartier to become the senior Premier, only a week after his defeat. Cartier accepted and brought Macdonald into office along with him. This was legal as any member of the cabinet could re-enter the cabinet provided they did so within a month of resigning their previous position. The coalition government was again defeated in 1862. Macdonald then served as the leader of the opposition until the election of 1864, when Sir Étienne-Paschal Taché came out of retirement and joined ranks with Macdonald to form the governing party yet again.\n\n\nFather of Confederation\nAt this point in Macdonald's career, he began to look to the future of politics in his region. He was the leader of arguably the largest British colony in the surrounding area and had the power to help enact agreements to confederate the British colonies. This would be done in an attempt to provide stability to the colonies, which were experiencing frequent government changes, to provide the basis for expansion into the

Is there any difference between religion and culture? How many people actulaly choose their religion?

I'm sure that culture influences religion choice - especially so during childhood, however many people, when adults choose their religion.  I have chosen a different religion from the one I was raised in.\n\nI would say that all independently thinking adults choose their own religion.  I'm just not sure how many people that is.

Freelancing can be a tough affair. Your best bet is professional networking to find jobs. In the open contractor market you will likely be undercut and underbid at every turn. \n\nI use a professional networking site called "linkedin.com" to help me identify prospects or for people to find me. \n\nGoogle Adwords have also been very helpful for me, but you really need to be dedicated to make that a real option.\n\nCraigslist also has potential in the help wanted areas.\n\nYou can also look at the various contractor for hire websites out there, but beware, competition is fierce, sometimes with PHP coders going for $5/hour from overseas competition.

Primarily because it was popular to do so at the time.  Hitler believed in a conspiracy theory that said the Jews wanted to take over the world.   Hitler wrote (well he dictated it and it was heavily edited) called Mein Kampf - My Struggle in English, that does shed some light on his anti-Semitism (hating of the Jewish people)  I've included some resources below that may help you in your research. \n\n(I am not Jewish, but in an effort to be unbiased I must disclose that I do have Jewish relatives. The links I provided I have found personally useful and I find their coverage of the Holocaust to almost universally accepted.  There are however small groups which feel that the Holocaust never happened.  You will have to draw your own conclusions.  I was not alive then but the historical records and primary source material I have consulted have convinced me of the horrible reality of the Holocaust or Shoah.)


How can I teach my son to hit a baseball?

For both new hitters along with those looking to improve, the 'old fashion' tee combined with soft toss (i.e. tossing a ball to your son and having him hit against some type of barrier, such as a fence) is a good way to build mechanics, confidence, and bat speed. For both, you can tape off a section on the barrier/fence in order to promote hitting the ball to an area. Then combine these drills with regular batting practice.

It really doesn't matter what shampoo you use, it matters what you do after you're done shampooing it.  Just blowdry it with a round brush and apply some shine gel.  You may want to watch someone do it at the salon before giving it a shot yourself--it takes practice and a good blowdryer (or straightening iron).

Assisted suicide may be permitted under a state scheme, but it is not required under the federal Constitution.  The Supreme Court found in Washington v. Glucksberg (1997) found that a Washington statute prohibiting assisted suicide was permissible.  A long-standing legal tradition in the United States, and in English common law history, exists that opposes assisted suicide.\n\nIt is still questionable whether a state may PERMIT assisted suicide, but Oregon has legalized it.  The recent disputes, however, have focused almost exclusively on whether Oregon may violate federal drug control laws when allowing assisted suicide, so the focus of the case is less upon assisted suicide and more about drug laws.  In theory, at least, the Supreme Court has never forbidden assisted suicide.  It's simply been historically opposed by state law, and morally opposed by most citizens.

Why is it always warm in southern california?

And why people in Los Angeles goes to the beach but just a few crazy ones do it in San Francisco? The ocean temperature is very important for the earth temperature. In southern california, there is a warmer ocean, and so, the temperature is higher than other places in the world with equivalent latitude. Anyway, El Cairo has the same temperature, and I'm sure that it´s warmer. There is a big influence from the desert and from the Nilo temperature, which comes from the very centre of Africa and comes very warm.

Titleist Pro VI is still the best overall ball for the average golfer who is willing to pay a little more for a good ball.  It is long off the tee, soft around the green, and consistent with irons.

WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN YOU REALLY LIKE A GUY, BUT HE HAS A GIRLFRIEND EVEN THOUGH HE DOESNT REALLY LIKE HER?

They are right. Something is making him remain with his girlfriend. If you truly like this guy then be his friend. Do things for him; ask about his day....his life.....take interest in the things he does. Be a true sincere friend. If things start to go down hill with his girlfriend, he might just need someone to turn to to talk with. If you have been a sincere supportive friend this could be you. The most loving relationships begin as friends....friends that know each other inside and out. Be that for him and you'll be amazed at what could possible bloom and grow when the time is right.


Well we just never know! But I do hope that they win...it would take a miracle though!

Financially, yes. \nHowever, obligation would be a wrong word to use for that. \n\nIn India, dowry is a common feature in marriages. However, it is in most of the cases, not asked by the man, but is given away to him as a csutom.\n\nThis could include money, furniture to set up new house, house, car, appliances, investment instruments, and anything that might help the new couple. \n\nIts the couple who gets it, and most of it is given by the girl's family. \n\nMost of the young people now look down upon dowry, and do not demand, in fact even refuse it at times. It had kind of become a social curse.\n\n\n\nIn Hindu religion, the pair takes "saat phere" (seven steps). These seven steps represent the sacred Hindu marriage vows: \n\n1. Let us take our first step to provide for our household by keeping a purer diet and avoiding those things injurious to our health.\n\n2. Let us take the second step to develop our physical, mental and spiritual powers.\n\n3. Let us take the third step to increase our wealth by righteous means and proper uses.\n\n4. Let us take the fourth step to acquire knowledge, happiness and harmony via mutual love, respect and trust.\n\n5. Let us take the fifth step so that we are blessed with strong, virtuous and heroic children.\n\n6. Let us take the sixth step for self-restraint and longevity.\n\n7. Finally, let us take the seventh step to be true companions and remain lifelong partners in this marriage.\n\n(see complete details of Hinud marriage at \nhttp://lauraandvikram.weddingwindow.com/...\n\n\n\nIn Islam, there is Khutbah which the Imaam recites at marriage.\nSee meaning at\nhttp://www.mehbooba.co.uk/knowledge/articles/husbandsobligations.shtml\n\nThis is true for Hindus and Muslims anywhere in the world.

Is it legal for an employer to dock 30 minutes from your pay for being 1 minute late?

It depends on the state you live in, but most places it would be. You usually have to be paid for all the time you work. He could make you not work for 30 minutes, but if you actually work the 30 minutes, you need to be paid. If you tell us what your state, I could give a more detailed answer.\n\nEdit: It is definitely illegal. First, Nevada law says, "An employer shall pay to the employee wages for each hour the employee works." Further, it is illegal to "Pay a lower wage, salary or compensation to an employee than the amount earned by the employee when the work was performed." An employer can change the rate you are paid as a way to punish you, but that requires that they notify you in writing "Not less than 7 days before the employee performs any work at the decreased wage, salary or compensation." Finally, the employer can withold amounts for certain reasons like health insurance and such, but for any other reason, the employee has to voluntarily authorize the deduction in writing. Tell your boss all of this and ask for your back wages in writing. If he refuses, talk to a lawyer.\n\nEdit2: I forgot to add that the regulations specifically say "An employer may not use a blanket authorization that was made in advance by the employee to withhold any amount from the wages due the employee." The employee has to sign the authorization each time.
