Affinity purification is a method commonly used in protein chemistry to isolate a product from a mixture that interacts with another known, and previously isolated, product.  Negative affinity purification, on the other hand, is a method used to deplete a known contaminant from a protein mixture based upon its ability to bind to a different molecule.\n\nFor example, a scientist wants to make an antibody specific for a novel protein. He/she produces the protein as a fusion product linked to GST (glutathione-S-transferase), since there are many methods to allow isolation of this fusion protein (by affinity purification techniques).  This fusion product is then injected into a mouse or rabbit and after some time the animal produces antibody in its blood.  \n\nWhile it might be acceptable to use the whole serum (containing the protein specific antibody) from this animal for subsequent experiments, the antibody of interest is only a small fraction of the total protein in the serum.  So, the scientist purifies the antibody directed against the protein of interest using a column containing the GST-fusion product used for inoculation (again, affinity purification) and elutes the antibody fraction that recognizes this protein.  Great, but the scientist knows that the GST component of the fusion protein will also induce the mouse to make antibodies, and that these GST-specific antibodies will be purified by the previous step.  So, he/she decides to do NEGATIVE Affinity Purification by passing the purified antibody mix over a column that contains the GST protein alone (not the fusion product) and then collects the antibody that DOES NOT bind to the GST alone.  Voila, protein specific antibody without contaminating GST-specific antibody... using negative affinity purification.

What software do i need to lock(protect)my phone?

there is no software.  you can go through the option of your phone and put a power on password on it or even a Sim password on it as well

It may depend on the frequency or sampling rate that you want to achieve.  One possibility is to use an oscilloscope on a current sensing shunt or current sensing toroid.  This will give you a visual representation.\n\nIf you are looking for a peak current, you can use a digital multimeter with a peak hold feature, but keep in mind that you will be limited to the maximum response time of that meter.

In the US, 79% say illegal immigrants should have the chance to work here, so why all the fuss?

I must say I was surprised by those poll numbers.  For me, and I suspect for many others, the situation is this.  I have no problem with LEGAL immigrants.  I have little problem with others coming here to work.  The problem is those who come here illegally and stay permanently.  They drain our resources (health care for instance), overburden our schools, and make little or no attempt to learn English and/or assimilate into our country.  Definitely a problem with no easy solution.  Unfortunately our government turned a blind eye to the problem for far too long.  As a result, millions of illegals took advantage.  Now it's unrealistic to expect that they will all be sent back.  I'd like to see them invest their energy into improving their own country.\n\nFor those asking about where the 79% came from, go here http://www.time.com/time/nation/article/0,8599,1179117,00.html

I am interested in becomming a medical coder.Can anyone tell me about this job?

I am pursuing this career also.  My main advice if you're just starting is to make sure the school you choose is accredited.  Many unaccredited programs will offer you online courses and take your money, but a degree from them isn't really worth anything.

what would happen if a diode went open circiut or short circuit on an alternator?

An spinning alternator produces alternating current. After each half cycle, the opposite side of the coil passes through the same magnetic field. As the coil passes through the magnetic field, current always flows in the same direction, but the coil keeps flipping, so the result is alternating current. \n\nIn the case of a car alternator, its intention is charge the battery, which requires direct current. The diode only allows current to flow in one direction, converting the AC into DC, which can be used to charge the battery. \n\nIf the diode goes open ciruit, then no current will flow at all. If the diode goes short circuit, it will allow AC to flow, which will not charge a battery and can cause damage.

Why is high school hockey in Minnesota better than any other state?

because in minnestoa we live hockey, its the state of hockey. hockey is the sport of minnesota, and because of that everyone plays hockey which means more people playing in high school making it more competative. also because 99% of the schools have a hockey team and a rink in town. go to any high school and ask them what the schools favroite sport it and they will usually say hockey after that football. and the state tournmanet is followed by more people then any other sport here. basically we are like the candians we are hockey and hockey is us at least in my opion.

why have the rangers lost the last five games they played?

Boy, I wish I knew.  All I can say is I feel the Rangers were hurt the most of any team by having the Olympics in the middle of the season.  That broke the momentum they had at the time.  They sent sent 10 or so players, 5 or 6 of them ended up on the teams in the medal round so they had no time at all to recuperate before the NHL schedule began.  Remember their 6 game losing streak right after the resumption of play?\n\nI haven't calculated it, but I'd have to say their winning % after the break was probably one of the lowest in the league.\n\nNow the flu bug has hit the team with 6 or more players having it heading into Saturday's Game 1 with the Devils.\n\nI'm trying to remain calm and optimistic, but.....

I think the difference between the two sentences is:\n\n- cool cars are something general. Either men like them or they don't. If you want to say just one cool car, then you have to say "all men like this cool car."\n\n- a job is something specific. Therefore it makes sense to say "after we get a job". Becuase one assumes that even if we is plural, each person will only get one job.


Is blasphemy really the unforgivable sin?

Unforgivable Sin -\n\nI believe that to deny the Godhead (1 Jn.5:7 below) is blasphemy again the Holy Ghost and is the unforgivable sin (Matt.12:31-32, Mk.3:29, Eph.4:30 below).\n\nThe only begotten son of God the Father (Jn.1:14 below), Jesus (the Word - Jn.1:1, Jn.1:14 below), His beloved Son (Matt.3:17 below), was conceived of the Holy Ghost (Matt.1:20 below). \n\nIn Jesus dwells ALL the fullness of the Godhead bodily (Col.2:9 below).  \n\noGod the Father\noThe Holy Spirit of God the Father and\noThe Word of God the Father\n\nIt is God the Father who conceived in Mary His very Word through His very Holy Spirit (Matt.1:20 below).\n\n1 Jn.5:7For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and THESE THREE ARE ONE.\n\nCol.2:9  For in him dwelleth ALL the fulness of the Godhead bodily.\n\nJn.1:14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, (Matt.1:20, Matt.3:17 below)) full of grace and truth.\n\nJn.1:1  In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God (Re.1:6 below).\n\nRe.1:6And hath made us kings and priests unto God AND his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.  (Jn.1:1 above)\n\nMatt.3:17  And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son (Matt.1:20 below), in whom I am well pleased.\n\nMatt.1:20  But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost (Jn.1:14, Matt.3:17 above).\n\nMatt.12:31 Wherefore I say unto you, all manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy [against] the [Holy] Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men.\n\nMatt.12:32And whosoever speaketh a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, IT SHALL NOT BE FORGIVEN HIM, neither in this world, neither in the [world] to come (Mk.3:29 below).\n\nMk.3:29 But he that shall blaspheme against the Holy Ghost hath NEVER forgiveness (Matt.12:31 above), but is in danger of eternal damnation:\n\nEph.4:30And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.\n\n\n\nPat (ndbpsa ©)

Pat Quinn was just fired ...what do u think?

Quinn's a good coach, but his teams are generally undisciplined and can be seen in a slow parade to the penalty box. \n\nHaving said that, Toronto keeps their players too long. Domi, Belfour, and Tucker need to go, Chad Kilger never should have been resigned to a 4-year deal, and their defense, except for Brian McCabe and Kaberle, is just awful. Tellqvist and Aubin were good down the stretch, but they aren't "marquee" goalies yet. This team, if they started today, is three years from making any noise in the playoffs, no matter who the coach is.


So, this looks like a homework problem, but this is how you would set it up.  And, it looks like the beam is massless...\n\nFirst, you know that the beam's not going anywhere, so the sum of the forces on it must be equal to zero.  That is, the sum of the masses must be equal to the sum of the forces exerted by the two supports-- 5N+80N+30N=s1+s2, where s1, s2 are the two forces.\n\nNext, you know that the beam's not rotating, so the sum of the torques on it  around any point must be zero.  To make things simpler, I'll set up the equation with the torques about end A--  5N*1m+80N*2.5m+30N*1.25m-s2*4m=0.  Note the difference in sign of the torque produced by s2 relative to the other forces.\n\nNow you see that the second equation has only one unknown-- s2.  Solve for s2, then plug that value into the first equation.  Then solve for s1.

why do we not have standardized health care in this country?

Yes, it ought to be universal.  A nation that recognizes basic human rights for all people should naturally include a right to basic health care.  It's already unfortunate that the health of each new life is a role of the dice; adding financial ruin or access to care as an additional role of the dice just compounds the injustice at our own hands.  That, at least, can be fixed.\n\nThe description of the recent Massachusetts reform is incorrect (see http://abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory?id=1807837 or http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20060406/ap_on_re_us/health_care ) (and Senators don't make state laws), but it's an interesting idea.  In particular, employers who don't provide insurance have to pay into a fund -- a lesser amount than insurance would have cost, but it creates money to discount insurance for the poor.\n\nBut insurance models are difficult; insurers by nature are in the business of avoiding or gouging people likely to make large claims, and those are exactly the people who need catastrophic health care.

Is there anyway to get rid of a co-owner of a business other than buying them out???

As stated before, go through the contract you signed, and in there will state the terms and conditions for expelling an owner. However, you will probably find that you will have to buy him out, if you want the whole business. But from what you're saying, you both have different parts of the business. So instead, why not split the business. Keep your profitable portion, and let him keep his unprofitable portion, then when the assets have been split, simply set up another arm of your business to provide the goods/services that he once provided. This will be significantly cheaper, and there will be large tax benefits through the offsetting of capital expenditure on income tax liability.

What dynasty mulan takes place in, the disney movie?

The Chinese legend of Hua Mulan centers on a woman who disguises herself as a man to take the place of her elderly father in the army. The story can be traced back to The Ballad of Mulan. The earliest accounts of the legend state that she lived during the Northern Wei dynasty (386–534). However another version reports that Mulan was requested as a concubine by Emperor Yang of Sui China (reigned 604–617). The film may take place even later, as it prominently features landmarks such as the modern Great Wall of China and Forbidden City which were not constructed until the 16th Century. On the other hand, at the time of Northern Wei, the Xiongnu (called Huns in the movie) had already absorbed into Chinese and other races and disappeared on the stage of history.\n\nDisney's Mulan casts the title in much the same way as the original legendary heroine, a rough-around-the-edges daughter of a respected veteran, somewhat troubled by being the "sophisticated lady" her society expects. When Hun invaders prompt the empire to draft male soldiers from families, Mulan runs off, dressed as a man, to enlist and keep her aging father from being sent to the front line to his doom. A fair source of humor in the movie is Mulan disguising her gender among her newfound soldier friends.\n\nAt the same time, Mushu (an unusually small dragon) plans to protect and encourage Mulan, but mostly to heal his tarnished reputation amongst the late Fa family's departed guardians.


Suppose you have a 30 dB sound of frequency 1000 Hz. What sound level in decebels is needed for 2000 Hz to see

Frequency is the "pitch" of the sound and decibels is the "volume" of the sound.  So they are independent of each other\n\ndecibel is used to measure sound level.\nOne hertz simply means "one per second" (1 / s); 100 Hz means "one hundred per second", and so on. The unit may be applied to any periodic event – for example, a clock might be said to tick at 1 Hz, or a human heart might be said to beat at 1.2 Hz. Frequency of aperiodic events, such as radioactive decays, is expressed in becquerels.

How is utilizing the information generated from the Nazi experiments not just?

say a serial killer is also a scientist. so he takes detailed research notes on every murder he commits. and he gets away with killing over and over again. after some time, he will either get caught, or he will get away with it. someday, someone will find the papers he left, or he will try to profit from it himself. would it be moral or just to use this murderer's research? \n\nit is theoretically possible that the information from that murderer's crimes could be useful to the living. but in using it, aren't we disrespecting the victims? aren't we disregarding the methods used to obtain the information? say he was living, and still attempting to justify his actions from prison, or to himself in secret... wouldn't it be helping him justify the worth of his heinous acts? it's like paying him, if not with money then with respect. it's an untenable position.

Ladies would you send back diamond earrings, if you received them from an ex for your birthday?

You did not have to give her the gift in the first place.  But you are too good a guy.  You genuinely love her.  However, dont wait for her to come back unless she is unattached right now.  I dont think that a gift (no matter how expensive) should be the criterion for a person to love and respect somebody (especially when this somebody loves her dearly and she chooses to dump him).  In fact, if she is genuine but does not love you anymore, she should return the gift politely.

(If you were my customer, I’d have you download them more quickly from one of my servers).  Then install them.  Then update to the latest versions of them.  Then run the “immunize” function from within “spybot”.  Then empty your trash can.  Install and run “crap cleaner” from http://www.ccleaner.com .  Then run a full scan with the spybot and ad-aware programs.  Update your virus-scanner to the latest version.  If you do not have a virus scanner, get a free non-commercial version from http://free.grisoft.com – it does a decent job and doesn’t cost anything.  Make sure and run a full scan with your virus-scanner too.  When anything is found, fix/remove it and restart your computer.  Following the above should greatly improve your internet speed, computer response time and data security.\n\nFor more information, please see the “Computer Repair/Technical Support” link on http://www.jsh.biz/ .

do you think the mentally ill should be held responsible for the bad things they do?

Under the Model Penal Code of criminality, which is the default rule of criminal law in the United States, there are certain defenses that people, who cannot crontrol their own physical functions, can use.\n\nOne of them is the defense of mental illness. \n\nI believe, persoanlly, that if the person in question has been deemed mentally ill by at least three unaffiliated experts, then that person can use the defense as it is prescribed by the Model Penal Code. It is simply too broad of a statement to say that we should hold the mentally ill responsible for their illegal acts. More should be done to help prevent them from getting into those situations.

Why are hermaphrodite worms useful to geneticists. Preferrably C. elegans.?

Some cells undergo a programmed cell death called "apoptosis."  This is often necessary for continued health and development of an organism, and in apoptosis, the cells shrink, fragment, and are engulfed by surrounding cells.  Apoptosis is receiving a lot of attention from researchers.  Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) is a valuable lab model because the effects of apoptosis are not always beneficial to C. elegans.  Another example of the ill effect of apoptosis would be AIDS in humans.  AIDS seems to be an inappropriate triggering of programmed cell death among important cells of the immune system.  The genetically programmed apoptosis in C. elegans is useful for looking at other occurences of apoptosis whether the trigger for it is genetic or not.

Since these are obviously older versions of the Advertised Software, one single line that 'Older Versions of all Software available - at special Discount Rates !' would be far more impactful :\n[Even if there is no discount to be offered on the older Software versions, their current prices will definitely be lower than those of the brand new ones ! The retailer can lower these a bit further [by reducing his margin, a bit] - and his cash registers will not stop ringing !\nAnd please : Instead of using loooonng (!) sentences with so many commas, list the same facts in short, simple, and stylish sentences.

how do i make sure that an estate agent isn't taking me for a ride when i'm buying a house?

Most agents have a governing body like Realtors of America.  They are also liscensed by the state so that is another avenue for recourse.  There are other people involved in the process that will help monitor your agent.  Meet with your potential agent a bunch of times before you sign an agreement with them.  Make sure to pay attention at the closing.  Read each and every line of the documents.  Always have your own agent.\n\nThe sellers will have their own agent and you need to have an agent yourself (buyers agent)  Most agents are ethcial and honest so if your paying attention and you get to know the person and ask for references, you'll be fine.

Will there be another triple crown winner this year?

I don't think a Triple Crown horse is in this year's crop.  Then again, this question should probably be asked again after the Kentucky Derby is run.\n\nI think if the races are spaced out more, there could be one sooner rather than later.  I think the distances should be kept at the same distances though.  These are classic races, and should be kept at the same distances that have been run for ages.\n\nAlso, if Pimlico does end up closing because they don't have slot machines or another form of alternate gambling, we can forget another Triple Crown winner, especially if the Preakness is moved to another track.  The travel makes sense (Louisville to Baltimore to NY).  Imagine what would happen if the Preakness is somewhere else in the US.\n\nFinally, the Triple Crown has been hit lately in Canada.  They run the same distances, and have a wrinkle in their TC because their final race is a mile and a half on the turf.  If Canada can have a horse win their triple crown, then the US could have theirs sometime.


The Praxis I is a general knowledge test.  It's basic reading, math, essay etc.  If you are in any way intelligent, you shouldn't have to study for it.

real names of actors that played on mod squad?

Peggy Lipton, Clarence Williams III, and Michael Cole.  And Tige Andrews was the captain.  Was there a kid in America who wasn't in love with at least one of them?  (Hands off Michael, he's mine.)

Dance club . . . . well it is not to dance . . . it is to pick-up hotties and try to get action.\n\nThe only reason . . . the dance club is past it day with me . . . but I still go on occasion . . . to meet people.  I usually leave with about a half a dozen phone numbers and never ask for them . . . the hotties bring them to me.  And let me tell you one thing . . . I am not the hottest guy there . . . not even close . . . yet women come to me.


Where do i go to contact a movie director about an idea for a movie?

To tell you the truth, a lot of video games, while having high potential to become movies, are usually better if they remain as a game, which is like a movie that interacts with the viewer. A lot of bigwigs in the movie industry consider them, but usually turn them down, because of them being too unique, only targeting a specific audience, instead of the multi-million dollar hits aimed at the general public. If you seriously want to do this, it is best to visit the sites of the studios and go through their contacts links. Most of them, however, usually say the same as I just did.


im falling in love with my best friend.?

Oh, definately tell her!  Whether or not she feels the same, this is the type of thing you can regret years later if you don't take the courage to tell her how you feel.\n\nThe best ever relationships start out based on friendship.  I hope this works out great for you two!!!


Guys, I feel like crap and I need to know how much some hubbies love their wives.?

Married couples fight. It happens. One thing you need to do is never go to bed angry at each other. I don't know why you had a fight and I don't want to know. You guys have to find a way to have a civil conversation without losing your tempers. I love my wife and I respect her as woman as well. I am nothing without her. I wish you luck


The reason they give you salary plus commission is to give you a chance to build up your "book of business".  Eventually you will have enough clients so that you will also be earning renewals from your past sales.\n\nThe insurance business is not an easy one.  In the beginning especially, you will be working long hours and will be constantly on the phone.  In my talking with agents from different companies, Liberty Mutual is not the best or easiest company to work for.\n\nI wish you luck with your endeavor.

how does early childhood abuse cause dysfunction of limbic system, esp. hippocampus?

I'm not aware of any such specific connection. Terrible experiences certainly lead to some powerfully encoded memories, which involve the amydala and the hippocampus, but as far as I know, early childhood abuse is unrelated to hippocampal functioning. Folks with hippocampal injury have memory encoding problems--and this is certainly not systematically true of individuals who have suffered sexual abuse.

i need cheats for runescape that r real for pc.?

There are NO CHEATS but there are ways to hack and scam other people's accounts.

Basically make millions doing nothing.  But there are many of these and most are fake and just are viruses or keyloggers that will steal that account.


Will Iraq end up like Vietnam? On 30th April 75 we cut and ran from Vietnam. When will we cut/  run from Iraq?

What you see in the Iraq news, is not what you get. The news business demands startling headlines, to attract eyeballs. It's business, as the eyeballs are rented to advertisers to pay for it all. But the reality of the news is less startling, and consists of trends. These are the current trends in Iraq.\n\nAfter three years, the Sunni Arabs, who long dominated Iraq, most recently under the leadership of Saddam Hussein, are giving up. It took so long because of a quirk in Arab culture, one that encourages the support of lost causes. The term "cut your losses and move on" is not as popular in the Arab world as it is in the West. But even the slow learners in the Sunni Arab community had to finally confront some unfavorable trends. Chief among these was;\n\nThe Kurds and Shia Arabs have formed a national police force and army that is far more powerful than anything the Sunni Arab community can muster. Over the last year, Sunni Arabs realized that the police and army were in control of more and more Sunni Arab towns. This was a trend that could not be ignored. Added to that was the number of Kurds and Shia Arabs who had lost kin to Sunni Arab terror over the last three decades. Many of these people want revenge, and they all have guns. Many, especially those that belong to the police, or militias, are taking their revenge. The Sunni Arabs want protection, for they cannot muster enough guns to defend themselves. Now the Sunni Arabs want the Americans to stay, at least until there's some assurance that the Kurd and Shia Arab vengeance attacks have died down.\n\nThe alliance with al Qaeda was a disaster. These Islamic terrorists were obsessed with causing a civil war in Iraq, and they insisted on doing this by killing lots of Shia Arabs. The Sunni Arabs didn't want to kill lots of Shia Arabs, they wanted to rule them all once more. But that raised another contentious issue. While some Sunni Arabs were in favor of an Islam Republic, which al Qaeda insisted on, most Sunni Arabs wanted a more secular Sunni Arab dominated government. This dispute was never resolved, as the split between al Qaeda and the Sunni Arab community widened. At the moment, al Qaeda is not welcome in most Sunni Arab areas. That's "come near this place and we'll kill you" not welcome. This after al Qaeda tried to terrorize the Sunni Arab tribal leaders into compliance. Killing Sunni Arab tribal chiefs didn't work.\n\nYou can't kill enough Americans to scare them into leaving. Saddam, and most Iraqis, were convinced that, because of Vietnam (where 55,000 American died) and Somalia (where 18 died in 1993), the United States would withdraw if you killed enough of them. While that is sometimes true, it's good to remember that over a million Vietnamese died during the 1960s, and that 1993 battle in Mogadishu left over 500 Somalis dead as well. Moreover, this, "the Americans have no stomach for a fight" is nothing new. It's why Japan attacked in 1941, believing that if they beat up the Americans bad enough, the faint hearted Yankees would just go away. Hitler also believed the Americans would not fight. After three years, the Iraqi Sunni Arabs have discovered that the Americans can certainly fight, and the Yankees have also found ways to do it that involve extraordinarily low American casualties. This story has not really gotten the attention it deserves, but the Sunni Arabs have noticed. They have noticed that if you attack the Americans, chances are you will die, and the Americans will just keep on keeping on. It used to be that the Sunni Arabs could take heart from the occasional attack where they killed a few Americans. But no longer. Everyone knows the trend, and doesn't want to be another victim of it. Last month 32 Americans were killed in combat. The last time it was that low was in February 2004. Back then, the Sunni Arab tribes and al Qaeda had joined forces. Both of them had plenty of weapon

It used to be that companies had to spell out their website names completely, because the internet was such a new thing.  Now most just say the name.


daaaah just get in bed n sleep like how u can share a bed with someone else


Think of this\nwhen it comes to space the constant thing is the speed of light. Speed is the TIME it takes something to travel set distance.\nAt the moment we are moving through space. An hour ago we were a few hundred thousand miles from where we are now. If you were sitting still where we were a few hous ago, you would be slightly older than us.\nThis is because the constant thing in space is the speed of light. As we get closer to the speed of light either time gets smaller or distance gets smaller.\n\nIf this does not seem possible, just think of a unit of time as one vibration of an atom. Go faster, atoms vibrates slower, your time is therefore slower than some one who is still. (this is a metaphor people can comprehend, not quantum fact)\n\nSo question 1. Light is travelling at speed of light. Time and space do whatever they have to do to accomodate this.\n\nQ2 No, see Q1. You also would no be strong enough to throw the ball\n\nQ3. The closer one gets there first. just like anything else.\n\nQ4. What fuel? It would accelerate exponentially as the mass decreased. Top speed comes dowon to rates of accelerate, motor efficiency, drag, ect. Then as you got really fast your mass increases. Mass increases (again I'll use a compehendable metaphor and not quantum physics) because distance decreases, things are closer together, denser, heavier. Then your rate of fuel consumption would increase exponetially and your velocity would barely change. Then you'd run out of fuel

Are images from a digital camera submissable in court?

Many police agencies now use digital cameras to document evidence, so digital images are admissible.  But, due to the nature of digital images and the ability to alter them, there are pretty strict guidelines regarding the handling of this evidence prior to it's use in court.  \n\nThe police have evidence control procedures in place to protect the digital images (along with all other evidence).  This makes it more likely that it will be admissible as evidence in court.  \n\nIf you are talking about a digital image that a private party took months before trial and was not secured in a manner to ensure it remained unmodified, then you may have a problem.  It may still be admissible, but it faces a far greater chance of being excluded.\n\nI'd talk to a lawyer about it if it's serious.


do you see chloroplasts in guard cells? tell me faster if you can pls . tell me faster pls?

Look at this site for information about guard cell chloroplasts.  It says that guard cell choroplasts are smaller than those found in other cells, which are measured in micrometers, so I would assume you can't see them with your naked eye.

Do the prime numbers refer to anything existing outside of the world of mathematics?

The greatest secrets in banks, internet security, commerce and governments are protected by codes built on exteremely large prime numbers. The reason? To our current knowledge, even all the most powerful computers on the earth joined together would need more than billions of years to find out these prime number "keys" by "brute force". Brute force here means writing a computer program to run all possibilities according to an assigned rule.\n\nThats a pretty important function for a number.\n\nIn fact, there is a "milenium problem", where the Clay Mathematics institute offers USD 1 milliom to those that can solve any one of the 7 millenium problems. \n\nAnd one of these problems is the Riemann Hypothesis. \nIt's an exteremely important conjecture about prime numbers that cannot be stated in lay man terms.\nMany experts ( mathematicans ) fear that the "proof" or "disproof" of the Riemann hypothesis may bring out an utterly "new" way of finding "extremely large primes", \ncutting short the work needed earlier by brute force.\nThis more efficient process is feared that it may cut down the workload for identyfying these primes ( or cracking the key you may say ), leading to a catastrophic faiure in security. This is because by cutting the "brute force" workload, one may get to the "guessing" by a shorter time via a computer script or programme based on this "new" way revealed with the proof.\n\nNevertheless, dont fear. Its an extreme longshot that depends on a lot of "if"'s. In fact, contrary to this mathematical myth, the proof of the Riemann Hypothesis might just be "showing the existence" without shedding any light on the behaviour of primes that could be used in the wrong way. \n\nPrime numbers can be found in many other ways describing science. Well, there are 7 colours in a rainbow, etc.\n\nRegards


Does the world not care about our troops where is the failth in the United States.  We should stand together,?

You want us to pray for war. Are you crazy, do you think Jesus will answer these prayers. People have a problem with what the troops are doing, i.e. an unprovocted invasion of a country that was no threat to the US, didn't have any links to terrorism (of course it does now), didn't have any WMD. The troops are human and I don't like to see humans die or get injured but the fact is they shouldn´t be there. Most of my sympathy goes to the Iraqi people who are carrying this burden, 12,000+ dead. You wake up if you think what the military is doing in Iraq is making the world safer. Rectuitment for terrorists have soared because of this war. We have bombs going off every week, egypt last week. We have attacks in London, Madrid etc. etc.

Will The Real ID Act (effective 05/08) lead to the implantation of Verichip?

http://www.prisonplanet.com/articles/september2005/160905resistid.htm\n\nWhy You Should Resist the National ID Card-\n\n The introduction of the national ID card is one step further towards the mandatory implantation of ID chips in all British citizens. Does this sound outlandish? Implantable chip technology has been in existence for a decade and discussions on ID chipping humans is in the news regularly. Tommy Thompson, the former Health and Human Services Secretary in the Bush administration, had a chip implanted and is now touring the country lauding the virtues of ID chips. During the the confirmation hearings for John Roberts Jr., George W. Bush's nominee for Supreme Court chief justice, Roberts was questioned by Senator Joseph R. Biden on whether he would rule against a mandatory implantable microchip to track American citizens.


I'm doing a persuasive speech on how we should all recycle, but I'm not sure what things to put... PLEASE HELP

even though i do strongly believe in recycling...i sggest you choose a different topic.  You cant persuade others unless you yourself are persuaded.  And if you are, then i would hope you are well informed about it.\n\nBut if you still want to keep your topic, then you could talk about how it is environmentally safe..talk about the surrent landfill problem, benefits of usung recycled products, its effect on wildlife, dwindling rainforests...etc


I am a mother of 2 and I was very emotional also. I would cry at the drop of a hat.

Why do I itch alot while trying to fall asleep?

There are always several answers.  One answer could be the threshold of your nerves.  Our nerves have a threshold inwhich the stimulus has to cross in order for our nerves to transmit the signal.  When you lay down to sleep, it could be that your mind is not distracted by life and your threshold has been lowered and thus your nerves are detecting any little thing and it feels like itching.\n\nAnother possible explaination could be that you have bed mites and they are biting you.  Not joking

What has lead to India and Chinas economic success?

A large part of their success, specially India, is due to outsourcing by the United States.  During the 1980's and 1990's companies spent huge sums of money laying fiber optic cable under the Atlantic Ocean and elsewhere.  They anticipated huge demands for broadband.  The demands never quite materialized, and countries like India took advantage of very cheap international communications to set up call centers to handle a range of services from tech support, to accounting to data storage and tedious programming.  Given their cheaper labor rates, it made sense for American companies to outsource work to them.  They were prepared for all of this because they anticipated it and had trained huge numbers of scientist and engineers in comparison to the U.S. An example of the result of all of this is the fact that in 2005, there were over 245,000 Indians answering phones from all over the world or dialing out to solicit people for credit cards or cell phone bargains or overdue bills! Bangalor is one of the cities that has flourished from this new economy.  The Indians are taking English courses, including accents and regional speech.  Soon, you won't be able to tell that you are talking to an Indian. Right now there is a fast food restaurant in Colorado that is routing drive-up orders to a call center in India that processes the order and sends it back to the kitchen.  This cuts about 15 seconds from the time it takes to drive up to the time you leave with your order!  The 15 seconds translates to big money for the restaurant.


Logitech QuickCam Zoom low FPS Frame Rate on Yahoo Messenger?

I think it is a Yahoo/Logitech problem because I have a Logitech Communicate STX that is rated at 30 FPS but on Yahoo Messenger it gets about .75 FPS. (I have a 5MB/sec cable connection.)  It works great on MSN Messenger and the Logitech software.


Is anyone alarmed at how increasingly superficial women are becoming?

It's a phase. Each time women get more power and autonomy -- as they have in the past couple of decades -- they seem to get scared of the possible consequences; then they start wearing sexier clothes and saying dumber things, so as not to scare the men too much.  And women have gained a lot of economic power lately, so maybe the back-pedalling is that much more noticeable this time.  It'll be interesting to see how this shakes out.


Pro illegal alien yahooers all seem to have emotional issues? Their view based on emotion not fact?

No emotion here...none at all.  Just common sense.  I don't like the "hate Mexican rhetoric"....plain and simple.  If that makes me a "pro illegal alien yahooer"...so be it.  \n\nThere are two side to every situation....I will not spout hatred to make my side heard.  And by your last sentence...well that is what you are doing.  Contact your representatives....VOTE, call, email, make them know you by name.  That is the way of change.....posting hatred on Yahoo answers isn't.  \n\nI also want to add....I am deeply sorry about your accident.  My prayers to yours.


Is there anything wrong with drinking hot water straight from the tap?

Yes there is.  If there is any lead in your pipes anywhere, it will leach into hot water to a much higher degree than it would in cold water. (Think of what happens to a tea bag in hot water as opposed to cold.)  Lead is very, very bad for your brain.  Also, if the pipes are plastic, plastic leaches more easily in heat as opposed to cold. (Manufacturers of plastic food wrap/containers tell you to NOT microwave food in plastic!) And, by the way, have you ever drained your water heater and seen what comes out of it?  Yuck!

a temp directory is any directory that either yourself or a program you have creates to store data temporarily ( temp aka temporary ) as in it is NOT permanent ( unless you want it to be there permenantly )\n\nLike when you make a legitamate backup copy of a dvd using clone dvd for instance ( Clone dvd makes a temporary directory where you specify it to make the directory ) which for me is on the C Drive and it is normally called something along the lines of ( CloneDVDTemp )\n\nI hope this helps ( If you need more info or dont understand feel free to email me or post back )

Just look into her eyes. If you see fear or sense it then she is hiding something. If you see love and honesty, don't worry. If you have suspicions then just ask her about it nicely, she will appreciate it even if she does sound mad. Then tell her, I LOVE YOU BABE!!!!


You are an awesome person. To have love for someone you barley knew. Don't be sad, and keep up the great work. To have someone at your beside that really cares for the last moments is rare. Anyone would be blessed to have you there for them at that time. You probably made that persons late minutes comfortable and peaceful.

Why do some plants have fruits and seeds but they don't have flowers?

No examples of this type of scenario come to mind immediately, and I think that I know why.  What you consider to be flowers and what the plant's flowering reproductive body actually is may not always be the same thing.  All fruiting plants have flowers, but some may be so small that they are imperceptible or unrecognizable to the human eye (like the flowers that make up the bushy part of a cauliflower).  If the flowers are too small to be pollinated by insects, then they may be pollinated by the wind, or in some cases, pollinated by the plant itself.


I had that problem with my ex boyfriend. I love him more than he love me and he end up using me. I am not saying that your boyfriend is using you I just want you to be careful and don't put more in the relationship than him. When a boy see that you love him and know that you are willing to do whatever for him. They got you where they want you and then they will tend to use you. I promise you this being use by someone you love so much hurts like hell. I been there. Just slow down and don't call him as much as u was and let him do the calling. \n\nI wish you the best of Luck with your relationship!\nMs.T~baby:)


What is good light load for .44 mangum with lead 240 grain semiwadcutter?

best option for that one is to check with a good reloading manual- loads can be so twitchy when you fiddle with them that I have gotten to where I only rely on S.A.A.M.I. member commercial info (at least then you can blame somebody else for screw ups)- I did up some .45 APC with a recommended load (non-manual), and wound up with split cases on 3 of 3 shots- scary!


WHy are some of the people on this site so stupid?

Why do you feel the need to call people out in such a way. I don't enjoy talking to ignorant people myself but we're on a public website and I wouldn't call anyone stupid. I'm not trying to be mean but that's rude not mention it makes it seem like you feel as though you're superior. \n\nMaybe people talk the way talk and spell the way spell and think the way think because they weren't given the proper tools as young-lings. Just maybe, you should try to know some of the people that you feel are stupid and you might see them in a  totally different light. I feel you on being annoyed by ignorance, but sometimes people need a break because of their upbringing/schooling or lack of. Feel me?

Who's the greatest hockey player in the world today?

i say there are too many greats still playing but i will name a few based on their skills and leadership: steve yzerman(great leader, in top 10 list with points), lidstrom-great 2 way defenseman, crosby (future star with great potential), jagr- pure scorer, joe sakic- great leader, chelios- oldest defenseman in nhl today, mario lemieux-great scorer and leader, and gretzky- top point leader of all time.  some of thoese players will be retiring soon so i thought i mention them as greats.


what are some common bases and thier uses from the acid-base tour?

I forget my organic chem but\n\nammonia, calcium carbonate - a base is used to neutralize an acid - a base donates electrons and an acid collects them (i think, or vs/vs) \n\nboth can be used to separate other chemicals, or remove chemicals from mixtures\n\nAcids are often used as a catalyst to start a reaction like when producing explosives - and can be very dangerous\n\ncommon ex - bleach(acid) mixied with ammonia(base) produce a poisonous gas and heat which can actually cause sever damage to lungs

You are usually given a point to plot.  The point is written as (-4, 2).  The first number represents x and the second represents y such as (x,y)\n\nTo plot the point, you start at the origin (middle) which is (0,0)\n\nThe x-axis is the horizontal line that goes left and right.  You put your pencil on the origin *but don't make any marks*\n\nLook at the first number in the ordered pair (-4,2)\nIt's -4.   You move across to -4 (on the x-axis...the horizontal line) and stop your pencil there but don't make a mark.\n\nThen look at the second number (-4,2) and you see it's 2.  Since 2 is positive you move up to spaces and then plot your point.  If it was negative, you would move down that number of spaces on the y-axis (vertical line).\n\nHope this helps.  Plotting points is fun.


How did Angela Devi die?  Was it a suicide?

This appears to be a hoax. It looks like a way to get out of the business. I've seen many websites, and you know the news...if she was really dead, it would have been on there. This excerpt from the internet:\n\nWith so many entering and leaving the industry, one girl from the next is hard to personally care about. For many of her fans, there has been an unusual mix of mystery and heartbreak at the swirling rumors that she has passed away. However because of the anonymity of the Internet, does anyone really care if a person suddenly leaves it? A search on the Freeones board (where she was known to post) reveals at least a few threads on her and a couple or more threads on her death. Moderators who have connections to her family and have made contact with the respective companies she has worked for have confirmed her passing. Official word has been restricted, apparently until the family feels the need to release the information. There's all kind of speculation as to what could be the reason for her death, or even if her death was merely a rumor from her foes in the industry. Porn is entertainment, and because it does make more money than even the movie industry, it's bound to mess with the heads of a few of its performers. That being said, Angela's disappearance from the Internet has caused people to believe she's gone from the world for good.\nAlso, the below link is some more information, it appears that this site "USED" to be hers until it got hacked into. Hope I helped you....A for effort?? THanks!

why have fountain pens (especially quality ones) made a strong comeback at the age of computer?

What the other respondant said, yes: it's more elegant, more personal, has taken more effort. . . plus it is kinesthically a satisfying feeling to write with a fountain pen  (pen feels good gliding across the paper; your hand/brain feel it too. . . )

Who is going to be the "Surprise" Team in the World Cup?

You forgot to mention Senegal as surprise team in 2002.\nThe US team will surprise many people because they are very talented and managed to stay out of the radar; they will be the surprise because few are expecting them to make it out the tough group they are in


can a gal carry a guy heavier or lighter than her ?

The way I hear it, and I'm for believing it, a gal can do what a gal wants to do.  Period.


Well my first advise is to quit playing games. No girl wants a guy that wont be honest from the beginning. Now you have to work to earn her trust back. When maybe in the first place maybe she would have said yes if you werent playing these dumb games with her

which one close us to each other?all of us are human,our home or our religion?

It should be that we're all human, but unfortunately for many it's their home or their religion. \nI think what's fundamental about us is that we're all human -- we have a lot in common, despite our differences, and our differences are our various ways of interpreting and expressing what is in fact common to all of us.

I'm practicing a blog at http://toxic99.blogspot.com .How can I get traffic to my blog???

"If you build it, they will come" is not necessarily true on the Web. Putting a website up is one thing, but getting visitors to come to your site is another. The process becomes even more difficult if you have limited resources to market your business.\n\nHere are some shoestring marketing ideas that can help you get the visitors you need at the least cost possible: \n\n1. Create the best content you can. Your content is your best advertisement - if visitors love your content, then they will go back and spread the word to others.\n\n2. Make it easy for users to recommend your site. Viral marketing is very important -- and easy to tap on the Web. But give your users the tools. Get a Recommend this Site script from websites such as cgiscripts.com and similar directories of scripts. Some even go as far as giving incentives to those who recommend the site to their friends. \n\n3. Rank well in the search engines (organic search results, not the pay per click). SEs can be a big source of traffic. The key is to create the best content in your niche. If you have good content, other websites will gladly link to you and offer your site as a resource to their audience. Check the on-page factors and be sure to get linked from authority sites in your topic area.\n\n4. Send out press releases. While outfits charge as much as $650 per release, there are free press release submission places on the Web. Press releases allow you to (a) attract media attention; (b) get more back links to your website without sending each website an email request; and (c) get more visibility especially if your press release gets in Google News or Yahoo News. \n\nIf you are going to read only one piece on search engine optimization, I suggest you read Brett Tabke of WebmasterWorld.com's "Successful Site in 12 Months with Google Alone: 26 steps to 15k a day."\n\n5. Submit articles. Write articles and submit them to websites accepting author submissions. You get exposure for your business; establishes you as an authority in your field, and allows you to get backlinks for your website. If 50 websites publish your article and it contains a link back to your website, then you easily get 50 links from a single article. The more links you have, the greater your chances for increasing your search engine rankings.\n\n6. Promote your blog to blog directories. Here is a comprehensive list of Resources for Marketing Your Blogs and RSS Feeds http://www.powerhomebiz.com/onlinemarketing/blogs.htm


1/1+1/2+1/3+1/4+-------1/n=?(n is going to infinity)Explain your result.?

This approaches infinity as n approaches infinity.  To demonstrate, I'll show you something even smaller that sums to infinity.\n\n1 + 1/2 + 1/4 + 1/4 + 1/8 [4 times] + 1/16 [8 times]...\n\nThis is equal to 1 + 1/2 + 1/2 + 1/2 + 1/2.....which "goes to infinity.  \n\nSince each term my this series is equal to or smaller then your series (1/4 + 1/4 < 1/3 + 1/4, and 1/8 + 1/8 + 1/8 + 1/8 < 1/5 + 1/6 + 1/7 + 1/8, and so on), and my series approches infinity, your series must approach infinity, too!

i am good looking so i am told, smart and well mannered, i just can't trust, how can i trust again?

Hmm.. i'm good looking, smart and well mannered as well. Trust have always been a problem for me, since my gf broke up with me for another guy (LD) and then my next gf slept with one of my best friend. \n\ni'm now focusing on my career and promised my self not to force myself in to a relationship just for the sake of a relationship.. \n\nI sometimes feels lonely but then again, it's more sexual than emotional.. i don't think anything is missing since i try to write what is my goals and match it with my current situations. \n\nTry to identify, where are you now and where do you want to be. sometimes putting something in writting is good since it helps you see clear of things you didn' know exist. I hope this helps, but if it doesnt Dog's do help...

Alaska has lots of native Americans, and they are probably the lowest in numbers of any of the minority. So I don't think Alaska will have any all white towns either, but I did like your take on the question :)  saying that snow makes it white :)\n\nHonestly, there are like 40 different kinds of "white" either way.  Look at Swedes, they tend to have blond hair/ blue eyes, and tend to be slightly taller..  Dutch on average are the tallest of any race.  Irish tend to be slightly shorter, and naturally stronger due to a higher percentage of Type II b muscle fibers. The gene for red hair only exists in Scottish people. So if you have read hair, you have at least some Scottish in you.  Italians tend to have black hair, and their body hair tends to grow faster. Russians, are less likely to get hypothermia, and have a thicker epidermis, this helps their bodies retain heat better, and makes them less likely to suffer skin abrasions.   These are not racial stereotypes, these are genetic facts, which have been proven.\n\nNot all "light skinned" people are the same.  Grouping all light skinned people together, is like grouping Iraqi's, Indian, Chinese,  and japanese, and saying they are all the same.  They are in fact all different,  though there skin colors may all be similar.  \nOnce more, look at blacks.  People from the virgin islands, though considered "black", and very dark in skin tone, tend to be a lot shorter, have higher pitched voices, and have small physical frames.  While people from Nigeria are taller, larger framed, and have deeper voices. Ethiopians tend to have slightly recessed hair lines, and along with Kenyans, they both tend to have a higher percentage of Type II A muscle Fibres, which is why they have produced so many world class distance runners.\n\nI don't like the idea of grouping all "white" people together, I'm Swedish, not "white",  out of a family of 7, all of my brothers and sisters have blond hair and blue eyes. My father, both of my grandfathers, myself, and all 3 of my brothers are all over 6'1 as well.\n\nIf by "white towns", you meant all the buildings were painted white, I can't help you there, maybe someone with a can of white spray paint got bored? and painted a whole town?

how do i post a banner in a signature at a message board?

First of all, you would need to have an image hosted somewhere, like on a server. Most ISP's provide you with this space. Then, providing that the message boards allow the use of HTML you would need to create a link or html tag to the image you wish to display including the full path to the image. \n\nExample: \n\n

\n\nBe sure to adjust the width and height to reflect that of your image


Yes my husband and I went to church today and it was wonderful. We had praise and prayer where we praised God for all that he has done and prayed for people. My pastor read of Ezekiel 36 and it was wonderful. WE sand songs and I got to see our church family once again. Church is awesome more people should go they don't know what they are missing.


If you mean the illusion caused by the eye and brain when viewing many rapid individual frames making them appear as continuous motion when viewing television and film, yes.  \n\nAre you referring to subliminal suggestion within media?


No they are not. You can never have a decimial in the numerator. The answer for the first one is 3/8 and the second one is 53/1000. \nTo get the answer move the decimal in the numerator one place and in the denominator one place too to make it equal. Then simplify.


How does the bible say that men should discipline their wife?

The bible doesn't say that men should discipline their wives, but love them as Christ loves the church. \n\nIf there is any disagreement or problems, I think the couple should behave like mature, responsible adults and resolve it through discussion. If this doesn't happen, the couple should agree to disagree over something and if there is no agreement about how to act about a situation, the wife should follow the husband to preserve the unity between them, unless this will put either of them in danger or hurt either of them or any children.

im 17 and its impossibel to find a job can you please give me some tips or some fast and easy ways to earn $?

Actually yes it is possible to get a job at the age of 17. If you seriously want to earn some cash you basically have 3 options if you can't find anyplace that will hire anyone younger than 18.\n1. baby-sitting (yes its a classic i know)\n2. yard work\n3. house cleaning\nThese 3 options usually mean your own little buisness. If you don't want to do those then try looking online for some jobs. For example, snagajob.com, monster.com, etc. or you can even look at the websites of places you want to apply at online. (Some stores do have it to where you can apply online.) For instance, albertsons.com, tomthumb.com, walgreens.com, etc. Or you can do it the old fashioned way, walking in and asking for an application. Oh btw if you go into a place that your wanting to ask for the application, make sure you dress nice (not fancy nice but like jeans and a nice shirt nice) bcuz some places already know whether or not they'll hire you by the way you dress. so that ol' saying "dress for success" wasn't kidding. ok well i hope this helped. if you need anymore sites or anything you can email/IM me. ttyl!

Who will be selected as the final 23 members of the US squad at WC 2006 in Germany?

I’m proposing a 4-5-1 (it’s not a whole lot different than a 4-3-3, is it?), with Gooch/Pope/Gibbs/Bocanegra anchoring the Central Defense. I’m visualizing Cherundolo/Lewis/Hejduk as the outside backs, and Convey/Beasley/Donovan/Dempsey at the wings. Central midfield would be controlled by a healthy Reyna/J.O’B/Mastroeni. Let Mastroeni hold, let J.O’B and Reyna divide the organizing and attacking responsibilities amongst themselves.


There are two possible reasons for tears to be released when you yawn. \nThe tears are secreted by the "lacrimal glands" located just inside the eye \nlids next to the nose. These glands secrete the fluid into the "lacrimal bag" \nwhere it is then released through the "lacrimal ducts" into the lining of the \neye lids to keep the eye moist.\n\nWhen you yawn it is possible that there is pressure put on the "lacrimal \nbag" and some fluid is forced out. \n\nThe secretion of the "lacrimal glands" is under control of the autonomic \nnervous system. This nervous system controls all the involuntary functions \nas contrasted to the somatic nervous system that controls all purposeful \nactions. When you reach out to catch a ball it is the somatic system that \nactivates the muscles to acheive that action. The autonomic system \ncontrols such things as the heart beat, sweating and the function of the \nintestines.\n\nWhen the autonomic portion of the nerves are activated the "lacrimal \ngland" secretes the tears which appear at the eye. These nerves also \ncause the pupil of the eye to constrict and get small as well as to cause\nthe glands in the nose to secrete. So, when you are crying you get tears,\na watery nose and your pupils should constrict. Perhaps the act of \nyawning causes activation of these nerves. Next time you yawn look in \nthe mirror and see it your pupils get small. But don't get too close to the \nmirror because when you look at things close to you the pupils get smaller \nanyway.

what are the two factors that affect stactic build up?

Resistance (type of material) and humidity.  \n\nStatic buildup occurs as particles on a resistive surface build up a charge.  This charge is released when the surface contacts a conductor of some sort.  An example is static electricity built up on the surface of a TV screen when it is first turned on.  You can see this effect by putting your arm close to the screen and watching the hair of your arm stand on end.  \n\nHowever, if your rub the screen with your hand the charge will be released and your arm hair will no longer stand on end when near the screen.  Static charge tends not to build up on the surface of a conductive material such as metal. (Try rubbing a frying pan on the carpet and see if anything happens).\n\nHumidity/moisture play a role in static buildup because the moisture in the air acts as a conductor for the electrical charge and the charge does not build up.  On cold winter days, the air is often very dry and you will notice that it seems like every time your touch a conductive object (car door, door knob, etc.) you get zapped by static discharge as the charge jumps from you to the conductor.  However, during the summer (when humidity is much higher), you very seldom see the same static buildup.


How to do you get international radio stations not satellite radio though?

You can set the band of your radio to SW or short wave. Start tuning. You will get many international channels. The clarity will be poor though. Satellite radio is the best.


Anyone know any good places to get an acoustic/electric guitar?

I would highly recommend finding a local, independently owned store. They may seem a little higher priced at first, but once they get to know you, they usually value your business. Many local stores will beat prices from Guitar Center, Sam Ash, or any of the other megastores. They also tend to throw in lots of extras once you're a regular (picks, strings, etc.)

Which team right now is fully prepared to win the World Cup?

I think that England is fully prepared to win the World Cup. They have a strong keeper in Robinson, and the attack and pace of Rooney and Owen up front would give any team trouble in Germany, with Crouch giving Erickson a different option to strike at goal. The midfield of Beckham, Gerrad, Lampard and Joe Cole can control the game at will. The best part of this team is its defence, although Ferdinand needs to get better, but the way that Man U is playing right now, he seems to be on the upside now. Barring an injury to Campbell, Terry, or Cole, Jamie Carragher can fill in at any of the four spots in the back and the defence will still be strong.


First of all not all people sneeze multiple times in a row.  The reason for sneezing is your body's primary defense against something trying to get in that shouldn't be there such as dust, pollen, bacteria, etc.  The little hairs in your nose are very sensitive and when something moves them it gets trapped inside and sneezing is how your body expels the invader from your nose or throat if it made it that far although coughing is usually more related to the throat.


can my internal network card be used to spy on me?

WOMEN ONLY: Do you REALLY find penis' attractive???

No, I don't find it attractive either, I like a mans chest and face better too.  I always felt, and it is not nice to say that when men are completely naked, they look like hairless gorillas!  I actually find the sight of the penis scary sometimes, that big thing coming at you can be a little frightening.  I think women are more attractive too, and I am not gay or bi either, we just seem like works of art compared to men when we are naked.  But as long as we like sex, we just have to ignore the fact that we don't really like to look at men completely naked.  I guess that is why women don't usually look at as much porn as men do, we really don't want to stare at naked guys!

"M x V to the power of 2 ÷ 450400 = foot pounds energy"\n"Example: The muzzle energy of a 300 Remington Ultra Mag 180gr Core-Lokt Ultra bullet propelled at 3250 feet per second"\n\n"Step 1: Multiply M (M = bullet weight in grains) times V2 (V2 = the square of bullet velocity in feet per second): 180 x 3250 x 3250 = 1,901,250,000"\n\n"Step 2: Divide the product of step 1 by 450400: 1,901,250,000 ÷ 450400 = 4221 foot pounds of energy."


Any three positive integers that satisfy the equation\na^2 + b^2 = c^2\nSome examples:\n3-4-5\n5-12-13\n7-24-25\n8-15-17


It's cool to ask a chick out after talking to and getting to know her for about two weeks, right?

Hell yes! If a guy even waited 1 week to ask me out, I would be wondering what was going on with him. Ask her now before you lose your chance. Good luck.


If you like this boy and he knows that you like him but he is very rude to you what should i do?

You really should stop liking him.  Why would you show interest in someone who has no interest in you?  Sure some guys that act like punks  do it because they do like you but I think if he is doing these things while you guys are together and alone, that's not a good sign.


What do you know about the Globe Theater...?

it was created in Shakespeare's time and was the place where most of his plays were performed. lol.

Viagra.  Look in your email inbox, you should have been getting tons of ads for on-line sales of the stuff.  Some might even be real.


How Much Trouble? (School Faculty NEED to post)?

It depends on the school and why you were doing this. I live in the south and the mascot of my former HS is the Rebels. On the school sign and other things, there are rebel flags. So, at my school, no one would get in trouble for it, but it would probably be taken down.\n\n(By the way, they are building a new school and changing the mascot and such later this year)\n\nIf you were doing this as some type of racist thing, then it could be viewed as a hate crime. Since it is not really *hurting* anyone, I doubt you would get in that much trouble for it. However, if it is racially motivated, please reconsider doing this. Do you want to be in the same category as white supremacy groups like the KKK? This flag was never meant to be a racist symbol (in fact, the rebel flag is not even the primary confederate flag from the civil war). If you're doing it to possibly offend or even hurt someone, just don't do it.


How can sopeone stop having suicidle thoughts?

You need to be on anti-depressents if you are feeling that horrible. \nI have made attempts and it just results in getting my stomache pumped (which hurts like hell the times I've been awake for it). I learned that when I felt that bad and thought that I would not be able to control my impulses to hurt myself, I would go to the emergency room and let them know that I was thinking about killing myself. They will hospitalize you for about a week but it could be a great thing because they have psychiatrists that you would see on a daily basis they would start you on some medications that hopefully, in time, would make you feel better.\nIf you have depression that bad then you probably need to be in therapy also.\nPlease check yourself into the hospital before doing anything stupid. Usually you don't really want to die you just want the horrible way that you are feeling to go away and you get so desperate that it seems that is the only solution.\nTry to stay strong. Good Luck.

I was convicted of a crime I did`nt commit,due to political motivation?

You say you can prove that the politicians were involved- but why didn;t you use it in your trial so that you were not convicted??  If you are going to try and fight it now it's gonna be more difficult and you are going to need a great lawyer.  Be prepared to be riddiculed and harassed, amoung other things...\n\nYou need to make your evidence concrete- DO NOT USE CIRCUMSTANTIAL EVIDENCE!!  Be prepared to fight and don't give up- take it to the higher courts.\n\nTry <www.wrongfulconvictions.com> it's a website that is based out of the University of Miami that run a wrongful convictions program- they investigate possible wrongful convictions and there are some great links on their site to other sources of information for you.
