Weight = Acceleration*Mass\n\nAcceleration of the free fall is the earth gravity that is 9.797 645 m/s²\n\nWeight = 9.797645*Mass\n\nfree-falling object is an object which is falling under the sole influence of gravity; such an object has an acceleration on Earth of 9.8 m/s/s, downward. This numerical value for the acceleration of a free-falling object is such an important value that it has been given a special name. It is known as the acceleration of gravity – the acceleration for any object moving under the sole influence of gravity. As a matter of fact, this quantity known as the acceleration of gravity is such an important quantity that physicists have a special symbol to denote it – the symbol g. The numerical value for the acceleration of gravity is most accurately known as 9.8 m/s/s. \n\nThere are slight variations in this numerical value (to the second decimal place) which are dependent primarily upon altitude. The Physics Classroom will use the approximated value of 10 m/s/s in order to reduce the complexity of the many mathematical tasks performed with this number. By so doing, you will be able to better focus on the conceptual nature of physics without sacrificing too much in the way of numerical accuracy. When the moment arises that you need to be accurate (such as in lab work), use the more accurate value of 9.8 m/s/s. \n\ng = 10 m/s/s, downward\n\nthe acceleration is the rate at which an object changes its velocity. Between any two points in an object's path, acceleration is the ratio of velocity change to the time taken to make that change. To accelerate at 10 m/s/s means to change your velocity by 10 m/s each second.\na = dv/t = 10/1 = 10\nthen if a body falls in the first second his speed is 10m/s and in the 2nd second is 20m/s and so on


Scandinavia. And it's about 70 dollars per litre. And you people are complaining. Hell... The gas prices in the United States are amongst the lowest in the whole world.


Very good question ..... and please tell me anyone knows ..the thing my brother mentioned is present in BIBLE or not ...because bible has different opinion to get the eternal life...\n\n"And behold, one came and said unto him, ‘Good Master, what good thing shall I do, that I may have eternal life?’\nAnd he said unto him, ‘Why callest thou me good? There is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments.’ "\n[The Bible, Mathew 19:16-17]\n\nso people who think ...that by following the commandments they wont get heaven ....are they not following Jesus ????? are they having their own opinion conflicting with jesus ...do they know more than jesus ????\n************************************************\nA friend mentioned that God and Jesus are one ... it means if Jesus has died on cross (according to christians) then God is also no more ..(nauzubillah) ...because according to christians both are one ...and what about the holy spirit ????


Do you think the Passion of the Christ was what Jesus really went through that or is it not as bad ?

I thank God for the movie "The Passion of the Christ".\n\nBefore I was saved, in a fit of rage, I beat somebody with my bare hands until they no longer looked human.  Until this movie, nothing ever even came close to that description, so every time I read or heard Isaiah 52, the enemy would bring back my memories, and I would feel the guilt.\n\nThis movie is very close to reality of appearance, but I genuinely feel that no actor will ever be able to portray with Biblical accuracy the anguish our Savior endured for us.

Does anyone  know how to apply a canada  or Australia permanent residence for free ?

I tried to move to Australia and it is hard.  You need to take a points test, you get certain points for being under 35, speaking English, etc..  The fee was about $300.00 and it doesn't matter if you have a sponsor, it does help getting in though.


Who agrees that the U.S. should let the immigrants stay?

Absolutely, they should stay. Our economy is extremely dependent on their labor. And as far as paying taxes go... every illegal immigrant pays taxes one way or another. Most pay federal and state taxes through their paycheck because they rent social security numbers from people not working. So not only do they pay taxes and social security, but they will never receive it. Also they pay sales tax on everything they buy. Also, if the US wasn't so discriminatory about our visa policy then it wouldn't be as big a problem. Do you honestly think an agriculture worker from Honduras can get a visa? Hardly.... we should be looking at that as well because we need the labor on farms, in the meat industry, garment industry, etc. Anyone who thinks we don't is blatantly basing their opinion on nothing. Perhaps we should start another huge worker program like we had up until 1960.....

Before attending medical school, you will need a 4-year degree from an accredited college or university. So yes, taking the SAT is a good start. As for an undergraduate degree, I would recommend something in biological sciences. It would be good preparation for a medical program.


What role did Lyndon Johnson play in the Civil Rights movement?

Lyndon Johnson has been credited with being one of the most important figures in the civil rights movement. Johnson does have some distracters who believe that he was merely an unprincipled politician who used the civil rights issue when he realised the worth of the "Black Vote". However Johnson himself claimed to be an idealist who dreamed of making America a "Great Society". It was Johnson who put the presidential signature to the 1964 Civil Rights Act and the 1965 Voting Rights Act.

Eating junk food when you are bored is the NUMBER 1 way to gain weight. Cause you probably eat it late at night which is even worse. Get a hobby model cars, read (I know boring), watch movies, chat with someone interesting online. Time goes by fast that way.


how do things get cold in space if their is no air?

Yes, heat can dissipate through radiation, just like a radiator in your house. Each body (Earth, moon, satellite, etc.) has a number called the albedo, the ratio of how much heat it absorbs to how much heat it reflects. And when somethnig passes into the shadow, it radiates out its heat and gets cold.

How it is possible for Nastro Damus to predict the events of future?

Nostra damus didn't predict anything. His entire book(s) are an disguised comment on the situation in his own era. Due to the severity of the persecutions in those days he had to write it in a very particular way. Since wars and dictators religion and so on are things of all times, one can see predictions in these texts. But thats a bit like a horoscope: your see in them what you want to.\nTill this day, nobody ever predicted anything on the basis of his texts. They all explained after the facts that is was predicted.\nOne last point. When you look in the internet, do a google search, you'll find weird coïncidences, but (like with the twin towers predictions) often the texts are entirely fake, ore deceptivly translated. Not that many people can read let alone translate his hermetic texts.


Why is the Spanish abbreviation for the US (Estados Unidos) EEUU instead of EU?

Answer: The double E and double U indicate that the letter represents a plural. Some other common Spanish abbreviations, among them FF. AA. for Fuerzas Armadas (Armed Forces) and AA. EE. for Asuntos Exteriores (Foreign Affairs), do the same thing. (Also in very common use are the abbreviations without the spaces and/or periods, such as EEUU, FFAA and AAEE.) Such a doubling of letters isn't done for all plurals; ONU is the abbreviation for la Organización de las Naciones Unidas, the United Nations\n\nMore: http://spanish.about.com/od/writtenspanish/a/ee_uu.htm


Atheists.... trying to understand? How is it that you can say you don't have a belief system?

An atheist can very well have a belief system.  Being an atheist just means that you lack belief in a god or gods.  An atheist could believe in UFOs, alien abductions, Santa Claus, etc.  \n\nI, however, am a skeptic, an Objectivist, a Bright (depending on the nomenclature you are using).\n\nI try to have as few belief as possible.  I try to hold a scientific worldview.  I take in data/information and try to understand what I am learning.  I make guesses/theories about how the data relate.  When I make up a guess, I then test it to make sure it's correct.  If it fails, then I continue to use that theory until a better one comes along.  If a better one comes along, then I reject the old one.\n\nA good example of this is the sunrise.  Do you believe that the sun rises in the East?  I don't.  I have a scientific theory that the earth rotates and revolves around the sun.  I test my theory every day because my theory PREDICTS the sun will appear on the eastern horizon.  \n\nYou might say that a scientific worldview cannot account for everything in reality.  Really?  Like what?  A soul?  I don't believe that exists either.\n\nI could be wrong.  Before bacteria were seen under a microscope, people believed that disease was  caused by disruptions of the 4 humours.  If I was a skeptic back then, I would have denied the existence of bacteria... until a scientific theory could come about and explain and predict their existence.  So if someone were to present to me concrete evidence of a god... then I would admit that I am wrong and become a believer.\n\n-------------------------------\nAgnosticism and atheism are kissing cousins.  Still, does a agnostic believe in Santa Claus?  Why or why not?  There is no evidence for Santa to exist... but there is always the possibility.  I deny Santa's existence, while a true agnostic could never say yes or no.\n\nBasically, there is a ton of bullhsit out there.  There are hundreds, if not thousands, of religions in the world.  This doesn't include ones that have died out or ones that have yet to be created.  I withhold belief until I find evidence for one that is correct.  Sure I could sometimes be wrong with my worldview/philosophy... but science/logic/rational thought has a far better track record in only a few hundred years than all of the history of religions.\n---------\nAlso, I think you have a misunderstanding on what a "freethinker" is.  A freethinker is someone who looks at life/reality without superstition... someone who uses rational thought.  There is no evidence for a supernatural being... so that falls outside of "freethinker".

How, in 3 ways, is recombinant DNA used commerically?

DNA has information for proteins and proteins do most of the functions in our cells. Hence, financial benefits are usually with the DNA that code for specific protein of commercial importance. \n\nWe can make such proteins, by recombinant DNA technology, outside our body: \n\nIt is possible to take the specific DNA from some of our cells, put  it in bacteria and thereby make the 'recombined DNA' of bacteria produce the protein of your interest! This way companies make  \n\n1. therapeutic drugs (e.g., recombinant insulin is used to treat certain type of diabetes disease),\n2. vaccines (e.g., recombinant hepatitis B vaccine is used), \n3. diagnostic proteins (recombinant proteins from the disease causing microbe can be produced by recombinant DNA technology - for further use in diagnostic kits - as markers/controls or to raise antibodies) \n\nand sell them! \n\n4. Similarly one can produce proteins from other organisms to can help in textile, paper, food and other industries.\n\nAll these applications are currently in practice.\n\nNow, the recombinant DNA itself has a few commercial values but this is not so significant. As Wolfee (& others) says, companies do sell specific rec-DNA to academic or commercial research labs. If you discover a new rec-DNA for above mentioned (protein-production) purposes, you can patent this and sell to companies which can make more money.

5 golfers that golf 110,  5 that can score 80.2 man scrammble? modified ?  what to have fun but fair and playa

I've seen two different setups that have worked really well.\n\nFirst one was called "The Loop" at my home course.  Everyone just goes out and plays their own ball, and then turns in their scorecards at the end of the round.  The players were divided into two pools - the A pool had all the guys who shot around 80, the B pool was the 110 shooters, in your case - and the scorecards are drawn so every A player is matched with a B player.  From there, it's the team's best ball on the hole vs. the field for skins.  Everyone plays hard because they don't know who their partner is until the end of the round...\n\nNow, if the teams have to be known in advance, try alternate shot.  Whoever drives on the first hole drives on all the odd-numbered holes; the partner drives on all the evens.  Automatic two-stroke penalty if someone hits twice in a row (including knocking in that three-inch putt after missing the five-footer).  Just make sure the teams involve one low and one high handicapper, or else it'll get ugly quick.


Why does the Bible say in Daniel 9:1 that Darius was the son of Ahaseurus (Xerxes)?

Darius was not a name, it was a title like Pharoah. The word in Hebrew is Dar‘yavesh which has its origin in the Persian language and means "lord". So most likely it was "lord Cyaxares"\n\nThree biblical kings had this title:\n\n1. The father of Darius the Mede, mentioned in Dan. 9:1. This was probably the Cyaxares I. known by this name in secular history, the king of Media and the conqueror of Nineveh.\n\n2. The king mentioned in Ezra 4:6, possibly the Cambyses of secular history, the son and successor of Cyrus (B.C. 529).\n\n3.The son of Darius Hystaspes, the king named in the Book of Esther. He ruled over the kingdoms of Persia, Media, and Babylonia, "from India to Ethiopia." This was in all probability the Xerxes of secular history, who succeeded his father Darius (B.C. 485). In the LXX. version of the Book of Esther the name Artaxerxes occurs for Ahasuerus.


i read my boyfriends emails.there was an email he had sent to two gurls of him w**nking should i tell him i no

Honestly, cheaters are cheaters.  Even if these things did not mean anything, which they likely didn't sicne they are in cyber world, he would probably mess with  them if he had the chance.  If they live nearby, it is probably just a matter of time before he gets with them.> Sounds to me like he likes flirting with danger, and unfortunately, most times people get swept away by the games they play.


They could!!! It might be a little hard to do at times,but they seem to have some capatibility!!!!

It is not a pump like a centrifugal or axial pump that we used to transfer fluids but actually we used the term HEAT PUMP to a system which transfer heat from a low temperature reservoir to a hot temperature reservoir through supply of work. It consists of component such as condenser, compressor, expansion valve and evaporator. \n\nThere are several types of heat pump system such as gas compression heat pump and phase change heat pump. \n\nApplication of heat pump can be found normally in domestic air-conditioning system. In a four seasons country the system normally has a valve that can "switch" to become a heater or cooler by reversing the flow of refrigerant.


What is the best, compact document printer to take on business trips? Thanks :)?

You really only have two choices - the cannon or hp.  Both color - both have battery options, both ink jet.\nMy organization uses both for extensive travel & I own both.  The biggest problems are paper feed and the types of paper the use.  They are not for high volume but the cannon "holds" a few more sheets than the HP.  GO to a store and try them both. - best bet - if you travel for business - many hotels etc have business centers that will allow you to connect to their printers.  I am also interested in portable printers with wireless options.

What does it take to be a good lawyer at a law firm?

Skills of a good lawyer generally: understanding of basic legal principles, ability to research, to be organized, to write coherently, to follow directions -- all the stuff they talked about in law school; still applies in a firm.\n\nThe thing about a big firm, as opposed to small private practice or even most corporate environments, is the caste-structure. Junior associates are bottom of the food chain. That means long hours, little respect, and everyone telling you what to do. \n\nNow, remember also that just because you've graduated law school and passed the bar, doesn't mean you're ready to practice. I'm graduating in two weeks, and there are huge practical areas that I never learned in school, but that I learned because of internships and real-world cases I was involved with. A firm (or any other knowledgeable employer) knows that a recent graduate probably doesn't have a lot of necessary knowledge about how law works in the real world, as opposed to the theory we learned in school. So, the first few years are designed to teach that, while also dealing with the fact that until you learn it, you are much less useful than a lawyer with a few years practical experience.\n\nFinally, remember that unlike other employment situations, a law firm acts as a collective. What one lawyer in the firm does is imputed against the others, including potential conflicts of interest. So, toeing the party line is important. It's also about fitting in and conforming to what the firm expects, both professionally and socially.\n\nGood luck.


do you think finding a special someone who is financially needy be considered a money trap?

Dont judge that person for having financial problems. Unless we were born rich, we all find ourselves in economical need at some point in our lives.\n\nIve seen cases where a guy finds a girl who really cares about him and makes him happy but some relative starts putting doubts on his head by telling him the girl is only interested in money and vice versa.\nOf course, you should always be careful. When you just met Someone its not a good idea to make them think they could benefit economically from you.\n\nIf you find your special someone who is in financial need,  give them your support. Don't make their lives harder than what it already is. they already have enough problems to think about.

Some one please help me resolve this dispute!?

OK, first lets say that the rocket moves at a constant speed of 80% of the speed of light. Working with an accelerating rocket would be hard and .8 is a convienent number.\n\nso we have beta=.8 \ngamma=1/sqrt(1-.8^2)=5/3 and \nbeta*gamma= 4/3\n\nIf you dont understand this, look up lorentz transform in your textbook.\n\nWe will use a two dimensional unprimed coordinate system with distance in light minutes on the x axis and time in minutes on the y axis. The sun is located at x=0 and the earth at x=8 light minutes. Draw 45 degree lines, representing light rays, intersecting the x=0 axis at one minute intervals. Draw a vertical line at x=8 representing the earth. The light ray starting at (0,-8) intersects the earth at (8,0) meaning this is the event where people on earth observe what happened on the sun 8 minutes ago. We will call this event A.\n\nDraw a line with a slope -1/.8 intersecting A. This is the path of the spaceship. It will reach the sun at the time 10 minutes.\n\nNow we will calculate the cooridinates of event A as seen by the spaceship approaching the sun. We have\n\nA'= [gamma       beta*gamma]  [8]\n.......[beta*gamma  gamma     ]  [0]\n\nA'= 1/3 [5 4] [8] =  [13.3]\n.............[4 5] [0]  ... [10.6]\n\n(hopefully the ... makes the matricies line up)\nSo the guy in the spaceship NAMES this point 13.3 light minutes and 10.6 minutes.\n\n\nNow lets look at where the line of the light ray from (0,0) intersects the path of the spaceship. Using trig we get (4.44,4.44). Call this point B. This is where the guy in the spaceship observes what happened on the sun at time 0.\n\nNow lets lorentz transform this point\nB'= 1/3 [5 4] [4.44]  = [13.3]\n.............[4 5] [4.44] ...   [13.3]\n\nnotice that the x' coordinate is 13.3 for both point A' and B'. This is because from the perspective of the guy in the ship, he has not moved. The elapsed time for the guy in the ship between A' and B' is 13.3-10.6 = 2.7 minutes.\n\nSo, he has seen 8 minutes worth of dancing in just 2.7 minutes. The image has speeded up.\n  \n* This is the correct method for solving this problem, but you might want to double check my math.


Do you think the word "testy" comes from "testosterone?"?

is this a TEST?  some kind of conTEST?  i can sure atTEST to the fact that this question is making some people TESTy.\n\ni like your thinking though, it sounds like something i'd come up with!  guys can have our version of crankiness too, can't we?  i have the TESTicular fortitude to say so!\n\nps:  the hot summer nights when i used to tend bar, there were often a lot of fights between the 21-24 year old "boys".  the running gag between the bar staff was that "we could sure smell a lot of "testosterone" in the air those nights.

Is it healthy for a man to stay without an underwear?

not at all\nbecause without underwear, sometimes your penis can have friction, maybe with your zipper.

everybody  say flute can only play by preventing the air flow ,then why it made hole?

The air flow that is being prevented is not the air flow over the hole you blow across. By holding down the keys or covering the hole passed where you blow to make sound, you are preventing the air from flowing out that way. When you do that you make a tone different holes, different tones. By making tones you play music. Thus you play by preventing the airflow thought selected holes.

I want to reduce 30 kgs of weight within 4 months ..what should i do?

The first thing to do is prepare a healthy meal plan that you will be able to stick with.  Do not starve yourself, that doesn't work. Eat healthy. Embark on an exercise program and work out at least an hour 4 or more days a week. Do a combination of yoga, weight lifting, aerobics and now that the weather is warming up, swimming. Avoid eating meat and cut out sugars especially sodas - whether they are diet or not.  Drinks lots of water and try and sleep at least 7 hours a night. I lost 10 pounds in 2 months of becoming a vegetarian and I wasn't even trying! (I eat wild fish sometimes). Let me know how it goes. I like to encourage people because I was once overweight.


I wanna take a programming course and i wanna know what is the best programming language have chance to work ?

For the beginning, take either C++ or Java based on your interest. Both languages are object oriented and a great option to shape your programming mind. Later, you could start .Net and take advantage of classy programming with an open mind. In .Net, you may choose C#.Net which has a C++ and Java like syntax.\nThe very important fact in programming is the ability to find proper algorithms. The language is the second fact. So try to improve your algorithmic view first.\n\nHappy Programming.

Where can I buy the CBS theme song to the Masters PGA golf song Leeds Music/Patchwork Music?

I got this off of eatgolf.com, I think it answers your question sufficiently.\n\nDogg\n\nCBS Masters Theme Song   \nEverybody is looking forward to the Masters. Here is a little something to hold you over - an MP3 of the music they play during the tournament broadcast:\nMasters Music \n\nJust listening to that makes you look forward to this week. \n\nSome of you may not know but that song CBS uses during the telecast is actually just the instrumental version of a song written by Dave Loggins that was inspired by his trip to Augusta in 1980. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHere are the lyrics: \n\n\n"Augusta" by Dave Loggins\nWell, it's springtime in the valley on Magnolia Lane\nIt's the Augusta National and the master of the game\nWho'll wear that green coat on Sunday afternoon?\nWho'll walk the 18th fairway singing this tune?\nAugusta, your dogwoods and pines\nThey play on my mind like a song\nAugusta, it's you that I love\nAnd it's you that I'll miss when I'm gone.\nIt's Watson, Byron Nelson, Demaret, Player and Snead\nIt's Amen Corner and it's Hogan's perfect swing\nIt's Sarazen's double eagle at the 15 in '35\nAnd the spirit of Clifford Roberts that keeps it alive\nAugusta, your dogwoods and pines\nThey play on my mind like a song\nAugusta, it's you that I love\nAnd it's you that I miss when I'm gone.\nIt's the legions of Arnie's Army and the Golden Bear's throngs\nAnd the wooden-shafted legend of Bobby Jones.\n\n\n You know who Dave Loggins is; he wrote that song "Please Come to Boston.." \n\n "Augusta" was re-released five or ten years ago by Don Cherry... I haven't heard it but it is song #25 on this album The Don Cherry Collection

I'm 21. My mom will be working and migrating to the USA. Will I be left behind?

In the visa your mother have, did she include you or get you a visa? Did she get a legal working visa or just a tourist visa? Maybe if you would be left behind and if she has already the financial capacity to petition you, then you can follow.. Your mom though has to establish residence first and yes apply for citizenship, then she can petition you. She could sponsor your travel too for a visit as long as all her papers are legal...And being left alone would make you more a responsible person I hope..you also have to understand that your mother would be making a lot of adjustments in the new country she would work in...just keep on rocking and praying\n\nmy son is a minor so it was easy to petition him..good luck and keep on praying and rocking


How many of you are Filled with the Holy Ghost?


i really hope nothing...\ndon't want americans to f*** the world up more than they already have (By americans i mean the Bush Adminstration)


i am a Baha'i. i love being a Baha'i more than anything in the world. I have never felt such a sense of truth or of love in my life. it is such a unifying religion. Baha'is believe in one universal God for all of the religions. that all of the manifestations of God come from one God (Abraham, Krishna, Buddha, Moses, Zoroaster, Mohammad, Christ, The Bab, and Baha'u'llah) for that time and age. It teaches that none of prophets are better than the other. Althought the message that they give as time progresses grows more potent as humanity matures in understanding. We believe in the equality of women and men, elimination of the extremes of wealth and poverty, world peace, one God, the harmony of science and religion. In the Baha'i Faith there is no one wo preaches to you. each individual must go out and read from the writings her/himslef. whether it be in the privacy of ones house or in a study circle. when i get together with baha'is i feel so loved. we all greet one another with joy and happiness. We all share a common belief in the betterment of mankind as society degrades itself. i love the baha'i faith. i don't think words can describe the unity or the love that emanates from it.


How do you stop liking someone when your already in a relationship?

If you like someone (which I assume you do, because otherwise you wouldn't have to "Stop liking" someone), why would you want to leave?  But, I suppose thats a question for you.  Really, if you are in a relationship and, for whatever reason, you dont want to be in a relationship, you just have to be honest about it.  Tell your partner just that.  Its tough, yeah.  But anything else would be putting you in a position you truly dont want to be in, all while hurting your partner who continues to give his time to someone who isnt interested in him the same way.  Yeah?


quesion 4 all the guys out there.....ii just wanna know.......?

Butt.  I know, it sounds so sexist.  But until you get to know a girl all that attracts you is the physical.  And to me if a girls bottom is nice then that's a heck of a start.  Once I get to know a girl then the eyes and hair are important...unless we're rolling under the covers, then I go back to the trusty butt.\n\nBoobs?  Hah!  They're for babies!  If your man noticed you for your eyes or smile he's either lying or borderline gay.  If he said, "Baby it was your awesome a*s!" then he's truthful and a real man.


If you have XP you can revert back to the date before you installed the printer to begin with. It will save all your documents and photos, but will delete any programs you installed since then. You will have to reinstall them.\n\nGo to ALL PROGRAMS-->ACESSORIES-->SYSTEM TOOLS-->SYSTEM RESTORE. Click on Restore my computer back to an earlier time. Try to remember the date about when you installed the printer.\n\nAlso, if for some reason a program created a new sized SAVE-TO-DISK file which is the incorrect size, it for some reason makes the Hibernation tab disappear. Follow this procedure as a test. If it is not the problem, it won't hurt anything:\n\n1. Click on the Sleep Manager icon on the Systray.  The Systray is on the taskbar where the clock is located.\n\n2. Click on the Remove button\n\n3. When asked if you are sure that you want to remove the Save-To-Disk file, select Yes.\n\n4. Click the Create button\n\nOne more thing: Video driveres for some reason have alot to do with your hibernation tab appearing and disappearing. Why? I have no idea. MS's explanation is that XP does not allow a computer to hibernate if it does not recognise a specific hardware device. Apparently your computer still thinks the driver is there. Sometimes the drivers aren't deleted when you uninstall. If you know the name of the driver, delete it, if not, SYSTEM RESTORE is still your best option...don't be afraid of it...you'll be surprised at how well it treats you!!!


Who else thinks Neil Peart is the best drummer in the world? If not, who is more impressive to you and why?

There's a video floating around (try LimeWire or the downloading site of your choice) of Peart doing about a 5 minute or so drum solo. It goes through several phases, including his own arrangement, military cadences, and closes with his accompaniment of a big band style piece. (my ONLY criticism is that he uses the vibes WAY too much)\n\nIf you're not convinced he's the best after watching it, then you simply never will. (BTW...this only applies to rock drummers of today)\n\n'Nuff said!


who is the greatest president in US history?

These are the top ranking three Presidents—in chronological order, George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, and Franklin D. Roosevelt.  Frequently ranking just below those three are Presidents Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt, and Woodrow Wilson. The remaining "top 10" ranks are often filled by Andrew Jackson, Harry S Truman, and Dwight D. Eisenhower.\nIn these polls, the highest ranking president who served only one term is usually James K. Polk or John Adams. The highest ranking president who served less than one full term is usually John F. Kennedy.\nFrequently ranking at the bottom of most polls are Franklin Pierce, James Buchanan, Andrew Johnson, and Warren G. Harding.


Can anybody tell how to prepare for GMAT ?

HERE IT IS,\n\n   GMAT Essay Section Guide\n \n\nThe Analytical Writing Assessment (AWA) is how business schools evaluate your writing skills. The AWA section has two 30-minute essay questions, each requiring a completely different stategy. \nPresent Your Perspective on an Issue (30 minutes)\nHere you present your opinion on a controversial issue. \n\n\nAnalysis of Argument (30 minutes)\nHere you analyze the reasoning in an argument and find its logical flaws. \nBefore 1999, two human graders would grade your essays. If they disagreed, it went to a third grader. Under the new system, a human and the "E-rater" (a computer program that scans essays) will grade your essay. If the human and E-rater agree on a score, that's the grade your essay will receive. If they disagree, a second human will grade the essay to resolve any differences.\n\nThe computerized grading system pressures human graders to follow the E-rater's strict standards. Human graders are aware that there is a computer double-checking their work, and they are more likely to follow the E-rater's strict grading parameters. \n\n\n\n   How to Tackle the Analytical Writing Assessment\n \n\nStudents tend to under-prepare for the AWA section. This is ironic because it is the one GMAT section where a small amount of preparation can make a large difference on test day. You don't want an embarrassing AWA grade coming up in a business school interview. \n\nTo beat the AWA, you must learn how to write in a highly disciplined and concise manner.\n\nBe particularly concerned with structure. Clearly divide your essay into the introductory paragraph, two to three content paragraphs, and a conclusion. Take time out before you start writing to set up an organizational structure. Our Essay Guide includes sample essay templates for both the Issue and Argument essays.\n\n\nUse transitional phrases such as "first", "therefore" and "because" to help the computer identify concepts between and within the paragraphs. Make sure you spell these transition words correctly so that the computer may identify them. The E-rater does not have a spell-checker built in.\n\n\nBe a conformist. The E-rater is not programmed to appreciate individuality, humor, or poetic inspiration; it will be comparing the style and structure of your essay to that of other high-scoring essays. If your essay looks like the high-scoring essays in the E-rater's memory banks, you will get a high grade; if not, you will get a low grade. Our Essay Guide has 20 sample high score essays to give you a sense of the proper writing style for the AWA.\n\n\nClearly state your critique in the Analysis of Argument essay. The Analysis of Argument question will show you an essay loaded with logical fallacies, such as the unwarranted assumption or fallacy of equivocation. These are buzzwords that the E-rater detects to see if you have correctly identified the argument's logical flaws.\n\n\nKnow the essays and how to answer them. The Essay Section Guide shows you all of the 275 actual GMAT essay questions and 20 selected sample answers to those essay questions. This will give you a feel for the essay questions and how they should be answered.\n\n\nWrite in effective American style. Both the human and the E-rater will detect poor writing style. The E-rater's memory banks have essays written in American grammar/style, which is slightly distinct from the English used outside of the United States.\n\n\nPractice, Practice, Practice. Try to do the essays in the 30-minute time frame. That is half of the challenge. Always practice under timed conditions on a computer or take our practice essays for grading.\n\n\n800score.com has graded thousands of practice essays over the last five years through our Essay Grading Service. The Essay Section Guide is based on information from our essay graders and developers of computerized essay grading technology.\n\n\n\n   Essay Section Guide Con

What's the best way to get prepare and really do well on tests?

Know the material covered in class, it's really that simple. I've found I remember the most when I try and absorb as much as I can when it is actually being gone over in lecture. Often times for me, this means not taking any notes (typically all that you need to know is covered in your class text) and focusing on understanding the concepts being gone over.

Don't be a fool. All diet drugs do is f*** up your body in the long run.  All these drugs are just a bunch of dubious science sold by unscrupulous d***heads to gullible people looking for an easy way out.  There is only one proven, safe and effective way: Eat less, and exercise.


Under what situations can a U.S. president remain in office after his term is over?

Maybe if there was a large scale catastrophy and he was the only survivor left to vote for himself, he could still be president.  Otherwise I dont think this one has even the most remote chance of staying a day longer than he is entitled to.  Nice try though Mr Bush.  Quit playing on the computer so you can get back outside and tend to the ranch.

my husband  cheated on me again with the same bimbo . what should i do?

You say you are a Christian and so am I... one of the symptoms of PTSD is victimizing others. I believe this is what he is doing. I suggest that you insist on two things - first, that he get out of the military the next chance he gets, and two that you go to counseling - TOGETHER. God does not allow for divorce in very many cases... adultery is one of them - if he gets physically abusive, that would also be an exception. If you are interested in saving your marriage, which you seem to be, then I suggest you try this. Your husband is going through something that you cannot understand, but he is dealing with it very poorly. So the solution is for you to understand, for him to get help, and for you to get help healing your heart. You have to get back on the same page. By the way, if you don't get help and the situation escalates, you could be at risk for PTSD, too. Best of luck and God Bless.


I would resign if I was George Bush as he has messed so much stuff up, and if I was president and not George Bush I would set out to undue all the harm that he has done to this country and I would bring the troupes home and let Iraq decide what kind of government that they want.


any tips or special diets  for keeping psoriasis under control?

There is much anecdotal evidence that certain foods act as triggers to psoriasis. Glutens, red meats, dairy, and cultured foods can irritate the intestinal tract and perpetuate psoriasis outbreaks. \n\nAlso, consume Omega3 oils that are found in foods like fish, shellfish, soybean, walnut, flaxseed and rapeseed oil.\n\n\nGood luck!


If you have an equation like 5x^2 + 7x - 6 = 0:\n\nGet the x^2 term by itself\nx^2 + 7x/5 - 6/5 = 0\n\nMove the constant to the other side\nx^2 + 7x/5 = 6/5\n\nTake half of the coefficient for the x term and square it: half of 7/5 is 7/10, squared is 49/100. Add this to both sides of the equation\n\nx^2 + 7x/5 + 49/100 = 6/5 + 49/100\nx^2 + 7x/5 + 49/100 = 169/100\n\nThe left side is a perfect square trinomial - factor it\n(x + 7/10)^2 = 169/100\n\nTake the square root of both sides and solve for x\nx + 7/10 = +/- 13/10\nx = -7/10 +/- 13/10\nx = 6/10 or -20/10\nx = 0.6 or -2

When will the Oilers beat the Red Wings. They are already starting to look tired.?

The Red Wings are not as good of a team as their record might indicate.\n\nPlace any team who was close to the playoffs, place them in the Northwest division with Columbus, St. Louis and Chicago.  This year, Detroit was able to get 21 wins from these three teams.  Out of 24 games played against them, they won 21.  That's an amazing division.  Not very hard to win when you play these teams.\n\nThe Oilers are a much better team than Detroit is.


Best of luck on that topic. Records aren't real clear on him, but since he did not make it for the regular season he is not listed on a team roster that I could find.Sorry.

What do you think is the source of the violence in our communities? How do think this can be solved?

The source is the family. It's where it all starts, it's where we get our values and principles and where we are shaped into the person we will become. It all depends on our upbringing.\nOh, and capital punishment is useless. It has been scientifically proved. Violence only generates more violence.

how do you find the mean median and mode?

here are some examples\n\n5,6,2,3\n\nMedian - Put in accending order (2,3,5,6) Find the middle number, or in this case the middle two (3 & 5) and divide by two. 3/5\n\nMode - Does not exist here. What ever number or numbers is repeated the most.\n\nMean - 5+6+2+3=16  16/4(amount of numbers) = 4\n\nTry to do it in the order i did. I always get confused with the Mean and Mode. Just remember that Median sounds like Middle. Mode reminds you of functions and stuff. So just think of repetition. and Mean is left over.

What does D.C. stand for as in Washington D.C.?

Washington, D.C. is the capital city of the United States of America. "D.C." stands for the "District of Columbia", the federal district containing the city of Washington. The city is named after George Washington, military leader of the American Revolution and the first President of the United States. The District of Columbia and the city of Washington are coextensive and are governed by a single municipal government, so for most practical purposes they are considered to be the same entity (this was not always the case, though, as Georgetown was a separate city within the District until 1871). However, although there is a municipal government and a mayor, as per Article I, Section VIII, of the United States Constitution, Congress has the sole authority over this federal district and thus the municipal government and mayor exist in the shadows of Congress. It is commonly known as the District, D.C., or simply Washington. Historically, it was called the Federal City or Washington City.\n\nThe District of Columbia, founded on July 16, 1790, is a federal district as specified by the United States Constitution. The U.S. Congress has ultimate authority over the District of Columbia, though it has delegated limited local rule to the municipal government. The land forming the original District came from the states of Virginia and Maryland. However, the area south of the Potomac River (39 mi² or about 100 km²) was returned, or "retroceded", to Virginia in 1847 and now is incorporated into Arlington County and the City of Alexandria. The term "District of Columbia" is derived from an old poetic name for the United States, Columbia, which has fallen out of common use since the early 20th century.\n\nThe centers of all three branches of the U.S. federal government are in Washington, D.C., as well as the headquarters of most federal agencies. Washington also serves as the headquarters for the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund, and the Organization of American States, among other international (and national) institutions. All of this has made Washington the frequent focal point of massive political demonstrations and protests, particularly on the National Mall. Washington is also the site of numerous national landmarks, museums, and sports teams, and is a popular destination for tourists.\n\nThe population of the District of Columbia, as of 2003 U.S. Census Bureau estimates, is 563,384. The Greater Washington, D.C. metropolitan area includes the District of Columbia and parts of Maryland, Virginia, and West Virginia, with a population surpassing 4.7 million. If Washington, D.C., were considered a state, it would rank last in area behind Rhode Island, 50th in population ahead of Wyoming, and 36th in Gross State Product, ahead of 15 states, and its GSP per capita would be #1 by far compared to other states.

You are also likely to make mistakes if you keep awake using drugs and do the work. If you are driving or operating heavy machines your mistakes may become hazardous.

What are the 'consequences of being you'?

We all have various personalities that we present to the public based on what we are doing, who we are impressing... yet, this is still "who we are."  That core personality that we carry within us, that tells us what is right or wrong... is never going to change.  However, it's expression grows and changes on a daily basis as we all continue to grow and mature.  For some of us, being more mature actually means we are having more fun!  For certain my ability to communicate is much more pronounced than it was when I was 21.  Or 49, or yesterday for that matter.     \n     For me personally, my attitude when I was a young employee was a "eager to please" person.  At the end of my career I was a "sour old germudgen."   Honestly, I use parts of my personality for various reasons.  The truth is, for the most part, inside of myself I see myself as a kindly teacher, a mischief maker, and a sweet old Irish peace-maker who has a bottle of whiskey hidden somewhere in the room with a pocket of tobacco always ready for a fine smoke... should someone need a moment to talk or just want to sit in the sun with me for a bit.  \n     Being "who" we are is a myth.  Our personalities grow throughout our lives, we learn daily and adjust daily to life around us.  Don't misunderstand, there are days when I have to dig deep within myself and find my own core.  What that core has become is a result of years of living, making decisions, enjoying life and just reacting day to day to life around me.  Like a lump of coal that gets transmutted into a diamond due to years and years of pressure on it, our personalities are the same.  Hell, imagine listening to Howard Stern or Pat Robertson every day and then try to image that it doesn't change your personality. \n     We all understand we present to the world a unique personna because we need a paycheck, regardless of what we personally feel.  It would be best if that personna was congruient with who we are as people, but that is not always possible.  We present the personna that keeps our paycheck coming in.  This is a lesson of life we all learn.  It's how we keep our jobs. \n     I find that after I retired, my joyful positive side became it's best.  I really now enjoy telling people to screw off, get frucked, or back away more often than I did before.  I'm less kindly now that I am retired.  But, I wish I had been where I am today those many years ago, for certainly I'm glad to be me and wouldn't have it any other way.\n     Wanna go play?  I'll go get my cane.  If that's too stimulating for you I'll grab the whiskey and my bone pipe, we'll sit in the sun and have a smoke, listen to the neighbors yelling at their kids, the Mexican-cowboy-Polks music from next door, the dogs barking, kids laughing, the sirens in the distance, the TV's blaring and deeply breath in the calming smog of the local environment.  \n     Ah life, aint' it grand!  My friend, I am laughing with you!

Is there any way I could get motivated to do my homework?

Yes. It's called real life. And it goes by very fast. Unless you want to flip burgers and learn to say, "Would you like fries with that?", I recommend you get all the education out of the way that you can. Homework should be extra-curricular research. If you are lucky enough to have a teacher who will allow that, you are blessed. Don't be afraid to ask. You might be pleasantly surprised to get a YES answer, because you are showing interest and initiative. Just keep checking in with the teacher regarding your progress and make a report at an agreed upon time. Also, if you can get into a "running start" program that gives you college credits for your last two years of high school, do it! (I am assuming you are in grade school or high school--forgive me if I am wrong).\n\nThere are sites on the net that help you with homework. Look for them, but don't get distracted. And don't ever fall for the trap of plagiarizing the material. Put it in your own words, always. Go the extra mile and discover something new, if you can. Make the challenge a personal adventure and a treasure hunt.\n\nLife is hard enough when you are skilled. It is quite unbearable when you aren't. Even specialized training gets outdated. Many adults have to retrain for today's jobs, about every 5-10 years, because things change so rapidly. That was not always so. The days of getting a degree and sitting back and collecting the money are over. If you go a day without learning, you may have wasted that day. And you will soon be left behind. In fact, new knowledge is being discovered today faster than it can be processed. The chances you can learn something no one else knows is excellent, if you put forth the effort. You can be an expert, if you wish. It takes interest and effort, plus a willingness to share that knowledge with others (often for pay). Continue to learn, always. \n\nRemember one very important thing, though. The best of all possible worlds is to get paid for what you enjoy and are blessed with a real aptitude for. It becomes easy, enjoyable and rewarding when you can combine all of those points into one job. In fact, if it is fun, it is not even work!\n\nSo, figure out what you love to do, make it something you are already getting good at and get into a slot that pays you to do it, even if you must create that slot yourself. Develop new interests and talents along the way. This opens new doors of opportunity for you and keeps life interesting. Best wishes. Go get 'em! (And do your homework.)

I am going through custody battle at the court, and my ex suggested psychological assessment.  What is it?

Ya know what is crappy? If he were to have testing done, he would not show psychological problems because he knows how to worm himself out of the situation. \nI am assuming that he wants you to take the test, not your child. Your lawyer should handle this for you, but in reality, he can be bought too. \nMy ex was always attempting to put fear into me. It worked. My children have children of their own now. My ex was so nasty that my children refuse to see him and he has not ever seen my grandchildren. Eventually, your ex will pay. Keep the faith and your prayers going up. What you are going through is worse than the death of a loved one. When a loved one dies, they are not able to haunt you like your ex does. My heart goes out to you. Keeping in touch with God is the only way to survive.

why do guys always tell us women that they can make love and when u get the chance to be with them they dont h

They don't know that they don't have a clue how to make love.  They will just say anything to get "some".  Really they have no way to learn other than you teaching them.  Try to do the next girl a favor, and the guy too, by helping them understand  what it means to you to make love.  Do it gently without criticizing them.  They honestly think that in-and-out means that they can make love.  You have to take him by the hand, make him understand.

Wen was the last time the unemployment rate was at 4 percent?

The last time the unemployment rate was around 4% was when Clinton was in office, toward the end of his last term. If you look at the numbers you will notice an interesting trend; the rate tends to fluctuate not based on who is president, but which party controls congress. When Clinton was president, the rate was very high when Democrats controlled congress, then the Republicans took over and the unemployment rate dropped significantly. When Bush took office, Democrats took over Congress and the rate skyrocketed. When Republicans regained control, the unemployment rate came back under control.


How can I block "Bulk" mail? (I get 100-200 per day!)?

I used to get that many, and more!  Signing up for "free" things, sometimes allows those sites to  have "third parties" use your email address.  The best although the longest time-wise way  to get rid of bulk, is to sit there one day when your box is full, and click on each one, scrolling to the bottom and clicking on the "unsubscribe" link located in that particular email.  Unfortunately, not all emails you receive in your bulk folder have this option.  Those are true "spam" emails.  For those (if you're talking about your Yahoo! account) it's best to move them to your inbox, then after you've gone through each one and opted out, going back to your inbox, clicking the tick box next to each one, and clicking "spam" at the top of the page.  That sends a copy to Yahoo! and it also puts a block on the senders email address.  Each email from solicitors is supposed to have an opt-out option (unsubscribe) at the end of each email they send out.  That is a regulation/law noted in the Can-Spam act.  But again, not all have them....I know it will take a bit of time, but in the end, you'll end up with very few emails in your bulk folder daily.  Just make sure you are careful when you put in your email address on any site.  Read the instructions carefully when  you sign up for anything online, and if there is a box to tick that says "yes allow third party offers" or some such thing, always make sure you don't check it, or uncheck it before continuing.  If you still receive emails from third parties, then just go into your bulk folder and unsubscribe/opt-out as I mentioned before.

Can an african and asian elephant sucessfully breed?

These two species may be relatively close in genetical terms, but they live in different continents: Elephas maximus in Asia, Loxodonta africana in Africa. \nHowever, when individuals of different species are brought to live together in artificial habitats, anomalous behavior can occur, including mating. \nThere was at least one hybrid African-Asian elephant that was born in 1978 in an English zoo (see link).

Well its, not just you.  They bother Wiccans and New Agers and Neo-pagans all the time too.  I think that Athiests and pagans are their favorite targets, because most Christians are so misinformed about our beliefs by their religion and religious authorities.  \n\nAnd fundamentally, protstyltizing is less about a farith then it is about ego and disrespect.  Evangelical Christians think they are better then everyone else because their brand of God is better then any other.  Anyone who isn't in their jolly little cult is an inferior being, not worthy of respect, whom they have to save from themselves.  On a basic level, that is egotistical and rude.  It assumes that athiests or Wiccans or Buddhists are stupid or brainwashed for having different ideas.  \n\nI have a Hindu friend who was tired of people giving her little "Jesus Saves" brochures, so she made up some fakey ironic brochures about how Hinduism saves.  She would take their jesus brochure if they would take hers.  The idea was to get them to understand what it felt like to be treated like an idiot child, and to teach them a little about her beliefs.  It didn't stop the prostylytizing all together, but it taught some people a few things and scared some of them away.  Amazingly, they don't like being prostyltized to.


how old do you think a grand mother should be?

36-40 yrs older than her grandchild...making her 18-20yrs old when she had her child as well as her child being 18-20 when the grandbaby was born. I feel it is only fair to bring a child into this world if you can properly provide for it, and lets face it...you're not getting anywhere these days without at least a high school diploma and you're not getting that till you're 17-18....so that's what i think.


Easiest way to avoid paying taxes is to make sure you put enough money into 401Ks (or retirement funds) and you donate to charities.

Look up a list of tax write-offs.\n\nHope you were looking for a serious answer!  Good luck ;)


Using GOD versus god and lower case Jesus.?

I was raised to fear and respect the God I serve. Some people don't. I find it rather disrespectful, but not everyone serves the God I serve. So just like how we put our God in proper case, and their god in lower case, they do it to us. Us disregarding their beliefs is not different from them disregarding ours. You cannot push your beliefs on others (speaking generally of course). So, for me and you its like, "How can they stand to do that?" but for others, its like nothing. take care to look at it through their eyes also. Lastly, in spite of the way we refer to our God in writing does not make it any easier or us any more divine in our walk of Christianity, nor does our intolerance of others make us any better. It actually makes us a bit worse. Live how He wants you to live and show others your joy through the life you lead in Him. And don't get to Holy to laugh. I feel that will persuade others more than anything. much luv and stay safe.\n\nAngel

because they have been different sizes throughout the last year or 2 its stretched skin and because you are losing weight the breasts (actual breasts) are smaller than the skin.\n\nAs you lose the weight and are back to your old size then your boobs will go back to the size they were. Try getting avon breast cream and massage daily after a bath and do chest exercises and you will go back, maybe not as good but you will be happy.\n\nMy sister went from an F to a DD and her boobs are now fantastic again after she breast fed twice with her two kids..\n\nremeber massga eyour boobs as this firms them! and do press ups on gym ball as this will help get your body back too

Women Only!!!!! Need Advice and Tips!!!!?

You want her back bro. This is man to man sh*t here. Blow her off. Seriously, just trust my advice and blow her off. Pretend you are on and better off and she will see that and realize you are intriguing to her again and she will start talking to you again. But play semi hard to get with her. Take it like you don't give a damn about nothing and if you 2 ever get together again it doesn't make a differance to you. But try to be exciting around her. Do something you normally wouldn't do. Take a chance and make sure she sees it or knows about it. You can handle it. Woman are complex creatures but once you know how to get through to them, you are golden for life. Well until they catch on to your knowledge of their ways.

well if the men are abc and women are def, then  the arrangement is like adbecf  right?  so   man a is "flanked" by d and f, and man a could also be "flanked" by de or ef so theres 3 different ways man a could sit. for each of these, there are 2 positions the other 2 men could sit in. \n\nso basically its 1 of these:\nadbecf\nadcebf\naebdcf\naecdbf\nafbdce\nafcdbe    \nit doesnt matter which seats they sit on, cuz that will make each man be "flanked" with the same women so u cant have that. all that matters is their order.\nthe answer is c. i hope this makes sense.


I am 27 white single and looking for a single goodlooking white guy where can I find them? NOt the internet!?


There are lots of reasons that couples go to a swingers club, and they do not necessarily mean that they wish to swing.\n\nFor one, many people enjoy watching others particpate in sexual activities, another reason is that he may wish to be watched. \n\nA swingers club is also a place where it is possible to have your wife/gf dress very sexily, and still be safe and many men simply enjoy the freedom of being able to enjoy her when she is feeling very sexy - which is a strong turn on for men BTW.\n\nIt may be that he is interested in exploring the lifestyle.\n\nHave you discussed swinging or bringing another woman or man into your bed? If so, a swingers club is certainly the most efficient way to find someone to join you.\n\nBefore going please make sure that you have an open discussion with him about why he wants to go, and what his expectations are.\n\nYou REALLY need to develop some code words and signals to let each other know when you are interested in someone, when you are not interested in someone, when you are uncomfortable, and when you need to scream "GET ME OUTTA HERE!"\n\nAs an example, my wife and I have a defined code phrase of "I need a cigarette", whenever one of us says this NO MATTER WHAT the other person is doing, they stop and we go talk - even if we are actively "engaged" with another person.\n\nNaturally this phrase does not work in all situations, so we also developed touch codes - for example, 2 quick squeezes means "we need to talk".\n\nSometimes it is a simple change of wording "I want a drink" means "I'm not interested in this person or these people" while "I NEED a drink" means "I'm interested".\n\nYou have to work your own phrases and codes out.\n\nIf your initial discussion reveals that your boyfriend is interested in swinging, you MUST develop a set of rules in order to be successful. Rules allow each of you to understand each other's comfort levels, interests and "sore spots", and without a good set of rules, you will almost definitely suffer jealousy, and anger, and being uncomfortable.\n\nPlease review the series of articles on rule setting and usage located at:\nhttp://www.swinglesonline.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=1\n\nFirst and foremost, you and your boyfriend need to have a VERY open discussion about this. If you cannot have this discussion - you are not ready to swing.

How mAny Americans have set foot on the moon?

6 manned missions landed on the moon (Apollo 11, 12, 14, 15, 16, and 17). Each Apollo mission has 3 astronauts, 2 of which descended to the lunar surface and walked around. That makes a total of 12 people (all Americans) who have ever walked on the moon.\n\nThe most notable NASA tragedies would be Apollo 1 (fire during a test, 3 people killed), the Challenger explosion (space shuttle exploded during liftoff), and the Columbia disaster (orbiter broke up on re-entry).

First of all, there are no Japanese words that begin with Q, V, X. Those letters/sounds do not naturally exist in the Japanese language. You can kind of imitate the "V" sound with katakana sometimes, but there aren't any good words that come to mind. Usually they just represent that sound with B's.  \n\nFor the rest, umm....\n\nZuan - sketch, design\n\nEi - stingray\n\nFujimi - immortality\n\nImotou - younger sister　\n\nPanko - bread crumbs\n\nReianshitsu - morgue


Was texas the only state that was an independent country??? (was california)?

There have been several "countries" that were first annexed into the United States and then made into states.\n\nThe first was Vermont, which during the Revolution was actually part of New York. Vermont declared its independence and was immediately recognized by the British Governor in Canada.\n\nTexas was of course the Republic of Texas, and after being recognized by Mexico then sought annexation and statehood.\n\nGood call on Hawaii, although this was different from Texas in that the indigenous monarchy was removed by American settlers who then asked for annexation.\n\nCalifornia formed the Bear Republic for a very short time during the Mexican War, then to be annexed.\n\nAn American named Walker attempted to form a coup in Nicauragua before the American Civil War with the idea of asking for annexation as a slave state, but it did not work out.\n\nWest Virginia, after occupation by federal forces in 1861, voted to be detached from Virginia and was admitted as a state in 1863.\n\nI think that is about it.

How can I learn  English like native Americans people?

Listen to a lot of radio and television broadcasts.  Just have them on, don't struggle to learn each word.  You'll start to get used to the rhythms and patterns of the language.\n\nGet to a library and borrow Sesame Street, children's songs and poems.\n\nThat's how I learned Spanish (not my native tongue).  When you think about it, babies learn by repetition.\n\nEven when I don't speak Spanish for a while, I can still recall the songs and that helps me get back into practice.\n\nHave fun - English is a confusing language - so learning rhythms and patterns will take the stress out of remembering all those words.

Epileptic seizures are almost defined by the effect on the cerebral cortex- There may well be burst electrical activity in the cerebellum, though I have never heard of that, but it would not likely be termed epileptic- It may be called epileptiform, though.  Burst electrical activity causes epileptic seizures, but epilepsy itself is the disorder that these electrical events cause, not the events themselves- thus, a burst activity in the cerebellum that had not functional consequence would not be considered epilepsy.  THere are obviously muscle seizures (ever had a charly horse?), and cardiac burst activity.  Im not sure what you mean by respiratory, but a hiccup is a perfect example of a epileptiform burst electrical event in the diaphragm.  Outside of neurons and muscles, however, you are unlikely to see it, as most cells are not electrically depolarized.


Clint Eastwood for PRESIDENT?? He wouldn't take no BULL!!?


Under mental duress I said I planned tender resignation, 15 minutes later I was told I could not take it back?

Whoa, whoa.....\n\nThe first thing to do is calm down.  Take a deep breath and relax.  \n\nNow, most people in nursing professions are members of a Union.  If that is the case, you must speak with your local union representative immediately.  State your case and ask for assistance.  You should receive help from the resources your union has.  \n\nIf you are not a member of a union, take the following steps:\n\nContact your local labor commission.  Find out if a resignation must be tendered in writing.  Most states require a written resignation when notice is given as it protects the employer.  Without a written statement, it is extremely difficult for an employer to prove intent if there is a disagreement.  You may want to contact your HR Representative to make certain he/she is aware of the entire situation.  \nOnce you have done your research, take appropriate steps to retain your job.  \n\nI must warn you though;  You are skating on thin ice.  As a supervisor, your actions are observed by your subordinates.  It is never appropriate for someone in a leadership position to lose her temper.  Subordinates can lose respect very easily and you have provided them with plenty of reason.  Although you are under duress, you can not threaten to quit your job without consequence.  Disciplinary action may be taken, such as a warning letter placed in your file, etc... \n\nI am a Human Resource Manager and if this particular situation came across my desk I would ensure you understood that this action is extremely inappropriate.  I suggest you consider employment counseling in the area of stress management.  Perhaps you should consider learning new strategies in dealing with high-stress situations.  \n\nGood luck to you.

is letting sperms out of the body good or bad?

As a catholic I know that sperm that is released without the intention of getting a female pregnant is wrong, and keep in mind the female has to be married to you.\nI don't know about the other religions.  \nJust without the religious aspect it is good to release yourself, if you don't it could cause problems if it builds up.


Nope, by my reception sucks here.  Wait until I get back in to range and try again all I'm getting are clicking noises right now.
