How did the state of Indiana get the nickname Hoosier?

But where did Hoosier come from? What is its origin? We know that it came into general usage in the 1830s. John Finley of Richmond wrote a poem, "The Hoosier's Nest," which was used as the "Carrier's Address" of the Indianapolis Journal, Jan. 1, 1833. It was widely copied throughout the country and even abroad. Finley originally wrote Hoosier as "Hoosher." Apparently the poet felt that it was sufficiently familiar to be understandable to his readers. A few days later, on January 8, 1833, at the Jackson Day dinner at Indianapolis, John W. Davis offered "The Hoosher State of Indiana" as a toast. And in August, former Indiana governor James B. Ray announced that he intended to publish a newspaper, The Hoosier, at Greencastle, Indiana.

Is there any good reason or reasons why we should keep the electoral college method of electing presidents?

sure.  \n\n1.  it's law and it's written into the US constitution.  most constitutional amendments have been small alterations or additions to the document.  anything that fundamentally changes the structure of the US government sets a dangerous precedent - i.e. that those in power in washington can muck around with the system.  what's next - congress appoints judges instead of the president?  it is a slippery-slope argument, to be sure, but the "if it ain't broke" cliche is a cliche for a reason.\n\n2.  the electoral college was designed so that a president couldn't be elected by appealing to a particular region that was denser or more highly-populated than the others.  this was a big worry to the founders, who feared that a particular state or region might become so populous that it could single-handedly determine who became president.  the electoral college solves this by ensuring a president is elected with a broad geographical consensus.  small states are given extra weight in order to tip the scales back in their favor.\n\n3.  the electoral college maintains the two-party system.  it is very difficult for parties other than the two main left-right parties to break into national politics because of the winner-takes-all nature of the electoral college.  this can be seen as a negative - good ideas and minority interests are left behind - but also as a positive.  a two-party system is dynamic, and the issues over which they disagree move back and forth with the political will of the people.  politicans have to be re-elected, so a politician trying to win votes has to do it by moving to whatever position his constituents demand.\n\nlots of people will say this is a bad system, but it is efficient.  the US government gets things done, despite all the yammering and garbage that comes emanating from washington.  compare it, for instance, to the italian parliament, which with 16 parties is a very open system, but there is such frequent disagreement and bickering that nothing -ever- gets done.  a two-party system makes it very easy for there to be a majority consensus, and some would say this is the strength of american democracy.  i leave it to you to decide.\n\nthere are a lot more pros to be considered - i would like to point you to a document written by the deputy director of the federal election commission.  it is an excellent read and there is a section on pros and cons towards the end of the document.  i include the link below.


What are some good places on the web to get homework help?

Here. Yahoo Answers is the best. Many people are willingly to help you with your homework. Some people say it is bad, not educating. Anyway, I noticed whatever question asked, even when it is obviously a homework, people will answer. It is the students responsibility to not abuse this cool feature.


What do you do to keep the romance in your marriage fresh?

Well, the little things really do count...things like picking your socks up and putting the seat down (if you're a guy) and letting your hair down and putting your feet up (if you're a girl).  \n\nSlow dancing in the kitchen while waiting for dinner to cook is fun.  Writing notes and tucking them into a pocket or purse to be found the next day is fun!  Baking a cake and frosting it together is awesome...just buy two things of frosting and only use one on the cake!  \n\nRemember to say "I love you" every day.  Focus on the things your mate does right.  Nobody wakes up in the morning saying "How can I make my spouse miserable today?"  If your loved one screws up, give them the benefit of the doubt.\n\nOh...and if you make Jesus the core of your marriage, everything else is even better!  There is never a time when I love my husband more than when we kneel down beside the bed, hold hands and pray together.  \n\nHave a long and happy marriage


Should the president of the U.S. be paid like a corporate executive? I propose $4 milion a year.?

Bush doesnt deserve anything. His friends from the oil business and weapons development give him grossely in excess of $4mil.


why dont you people make something for the avatars to have a house?

If we had houses, we'd never get up off the couch except to go to work, and we'd grow to hate ourselves because we would've openly chosen this dead lifestyle, and we'd build fences to separate ourselves from eachother, and forget what it means to survive and to have real companionship with our fellow man - er, avatar. We're all just ghost people, and ghost people are wanderers by nature.


Has anyone read the purpose driven life book if so what do you think of it?

Many sunday schools have used this book, and I find that it has it good points, like many books written today and over the years. I also think it has become a fad of sorts, like Thomas Kinkade paintings, etc.  If I could only have a few books, this probably would not be one of them. The Bible continues to be the most life changing and relevant book I've ever read.  Still learning from it after all these years. Everything else pales in comparison.

If you met someone on the web, and you do care, they are far away, in person and persona,?

As you said, "love is all knowing, seeing, and feeling." I think you know the answer just from your mention of this phrase. \n\nOk, I did as you said and assumed your motives were sincere, pure and heartfelt. But I can't help but wonder about hers. Red flags are going up all around. Confirmation of identity is in the forefront. Why can she not do this? What is there to hide? Why will she not call? I have so been in your shoes and know that it is indeed possible to just be blown away by a persona in a matter of days. We see a wonderful personality with a connection to our soul that is nothing short of magical. But when our toes start to flutter down to earth, reason takes over and questions fill our mind. Of course she seeks you out because she DOES enjoy you, DOES want a relationship, DOES feel the blissful connection you do as well. That's not a question. The question is can you have a relationship with her if there is something in her life that prohibits her from being able to give you her all. We know that something is, whatever it may be. Therefore she can not reveal her life in a way that most do when they share a very special relationship. Is she  married perhaps? Would this matter in the scheme of things? Would you enjoy her friendship just the same? If so, perhaps let her know that it is safe to be who she is.....that you will accept her for good, bad or ugly. If this possibility could present a problem for you, you need to be honest with her and tell her that you need more of her......more sharing in order for the relationship to progress to the next level. You obviously are an open person by the way you have shared with us today. Share with her your feelings.......its time for the roller coaster to level out. Meeting someone needs to be fun......not draining and taxing. I hope this seems like a logical thing to do. I'll be curious to know how this works out. Good luck!


I've asked this before, but I only recieved two answers and they weren't very good, so...?

Chlorine can cause major eye damage in it's concentrated form. However, in pool water chloring is highly diluted and will not burn your eyes. The american redcross gives tips on pool safety, and the only one regarding eye protection is to protect your eyes from UV sun exposure. Based upon this information I would say that the suns UV rays have a much greater potential for eye damage than diluted chlorine.


Ok..Assuming Steelers win the bowl...what or who should they take first round in the up and coming draft???

I think regardless off whether the Steelers win or not they should be looking to get a power running back to replace Bettis.  Now I doubt White would still be available, unless the Steelers trade up some how, but any decent power back will be a big help in keeping the one-two punch potential with Willie Parker going.\n\nAs far as the Seahawks, they need help in their secondary.  Any corner or safety they can pick up they should get.

In my opinion, "Objective Reporting" sounds like it means that while you report, whether it be during an interview or researching for extra information, you don't include your personal opinion in the matter. Objective means to not have your view distorted by bias, whereas subjective is more or less how you interpret things in your own eyes. I would also take into account that if you are doing an interview for a report, you would ask questions that don't show your partiality toward one topic or another; that they are relatively neutral. For further information, try looking up topics related to sociology. Sociology often dicusses how sociologists have to execute experiments and observations without weighing in their personal feelings. Good luck with your class!:)

Conventional concrete has a density of about 2300 kg/m3.\nThere are about 10.76 cubic ft in a cubic meter and 2.2 lbs in a kilogram. So that means that a cubic foot of concrete would weigh 2300 x 2.2 / 10.76 = 470 lbs.\nA half a cubic foot would be 235 lbs.\nSpread over 144 square inches that would be 235/144 = 1.63 psi.\n\nThat is a 6" slab of concrete would exert 1.64 psi on the ground underneath it. Was that our question?

How do I let go caring about someone who has taken advantage of me?

it is so hard to forgive people who are like that. It's so easy to say just get over it and find someone else but it's not easy to do I know.  Only time will help you forgive. It won't happen over night. It's part of being in love and investing so much of your time into someone. It sucks and it hurts to let someone go you care so much about but if the feeling isn't mutual it's not meant to be.  When I've been in that situation I've just tried to keep myself busy. Nothing is worse then sitting at home with nothing to do but think about that person. Get out and do something, anything, with anyone and just try to keep yourself occupied for a while. \nSorry she did that to you. If people only knew how they were affecting the ones around them....

Iran (i-ran, i-rahn, eye-ran)\n\nRepublic in the Middle East, bordered by Armenia, the Caspian Sea, Turkmenistan, and Azerbaijan to the north; Afghanistan and Pakistan to the east; the Gulf of Oman and the Persian Gulf to the south; and Iraq and Turkey to the west. Its capital and largest city is Teheran. \n\n\nCore of the ancient Persian Empire, Iran was known as Persia until 1935.\nThe United States supported the regime of the shah (king) Mohammed Reza Pahlavi, who was forced by popular opposition to leave the country in 1979.\nAyatollah Ruhollah Khomeini ruled from 1979 until his death in 1989, imposing strict Islamic law.\nIn 1979, Iranian militants attacked the U.S. embassy and seized hostages, including sixty-two Americans, who were held until 1981.\nIraq unsuccessfully invaded Iran in 1980.\nThe Iranian government was widely believed to have controlled the taking of U. S. hostages in Lebanon. (See Iran-Contra affair.)\nThe 1990s saw some moderating elements emerge to challenge the conservative heirs to Khomeini.

What is the Best way to learn American English?

If you have access to American television shows, watch a lot of them. We don't speak the king's (British) English, which is what is taught in most foreign countries. \nWe use a lot of slang and contractions, among other things. And we also spell and pronounce a lot of words differently.\nReading books by American authors would help somewhat, but you still would not know how we pronounce things, or how we like to run words together.


modem\n(MOdulator-DEModulator) Until the late 1990s, the term stood for a device that allowed a computer or terminal to transmit data over a standard dial-up telephone line. Since the advent of high-speed cable and DSL connections, modem may refer to devices for low-speed dial-up or high-speed broadband.\n\nThis definition pertains only to dial-up modems, which convert digital pulses from the computer to audio tones that an analog telephone line is set up to handle and vice versa. V.92 is the last dial-up standard, providing a data rate of 56 Kbps (see V.92). For high-speed broadband modems, see cable modem, DSL and cellular modem.

What's the difference between the different lines of Shimano components?

The short answer is features, finish, weight, quality and durability.\n\nLines like Dura-Ace and XTR have a highly polished finish which gives it a nice, sophisticated, high-bling look. The aforementioned groups also tend to be lighter, more durable, and feature the newest technology - like the two piece cranks, ten speed casettes, and so on.\n\nThe cheaper groupsets aren't quite as durable, and have a more plain, less finished look to them.\n\nYou get what you pay for is the rule of thumb here.

Therefore, unless you are still compiling for MS-DOS, there probably isn't an equivalent.\n\nHowever, if there _was_ an equivalent, it would look something like this:\n\nchar* buffer = new char [64];\nofstream cprn(4, buffer, 64);\ncprn << "Hello World Printer at LPT1!" << endl;\n\n(4 is the file handle for PRN)

if you know the brand you can download (usually) thier installer (which sometimes is more updated in the version u download)\n\n\naka if u had a logitech one you would goto logitech.com and look for software and search for your device model and look for the picture that resembles it\n\nif you had a creative one you could goto www.creative.com and in the search box type the model of the webcam and it will find all it can on it, you just look for the driver part and the version of windows you have  and you will find the right version you want,  \n\nshould it be anothe brand , it might be printed on the camera itself, in that cae just search the name of the brand in yahoo.com or google.com and it will find information on the brand,  but if the brand doesnt have a download feature, id do what MrDark suggested,  username:driver2 password:all\n\nthat user and password is generic for everyone who doesnt wish to sign up, because all you would be doing is searching for a driver to download.\n\nhope this helps,\ndez


what is the importance of religion in the persian gulf region?

The Persian Gulf is a water body in the Middle East.\nCountries with a coastline on the Persian Gulf, called the Persian Gulf States or the Gulf States, are Iran (Persia), United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Bahrain, Kuwait and Iraq. These countries are all conservative Muslim countries(both Sunni and Shi'a) and are governed by Islamic(Sharia) laws. Saudi Arabia stands out from the others since it is the birthplace of Islam and its cities Mecca(site of the Hajj or pilgrimage) and Medina are the holiest sites for Muslims worldwide.

Have your doc order some blood tests to get your testosterone levels checked.\n\nOnce a guy hits his mid 30's, the T level can go down significantly, to the point where libido, as well as other things that testosterone controls, goes to pot.\n\nIt's a starting point.

Are the American people against or for Venezuelan president Hugo Chavez?

I think that Americans aren´t agree Chavez exterior policy to the United States and Bush administration.\nAlso, with Fidel Castro, they are changing Latin American point of view about freedom, democracy,and capitalism.Chavez give $30 millions to Bolivia, and 65% of Venezuelans are in extremely poverty. Also he´s giving free oil and gas to Argentina,Brazil,Cuba,and Caribbean islands.And he´s finnanciating pro-comunist socialist candidates, that is the case of Evo Morales in Bolivia, and Ollanta Humala in Peru. But I think that intelligent and modern left Latin American leaders like Lula,the elected Michelle Bachelet,Nestor Kirchner, etc. People who really want good relationships with US and the whole world, impede that Chavez made real the "Simon Bolivar´s dream" of integrate all Latin America in one "liberal socialist" block.


What kind of Valentine's Day gift do women most like to receive?

A romantic evening with noticeable "thought" put into it. Lots of surprises to keep her on her feet for the day-something simple as putting a handwritten note & a rose on her steering wheel to start the day, meeting her for lunch with another single rose, etc . Make her feel that you are totally into her by listening intently to her conversation, giving conversation of your own, letting her know that it is all about her by giving caring touches throughout the evening. If she is into jewelry-that could be one of her surprises. Some women just need to feel special and loved. It's easier to buy a gift than to not give anything emotional-which takes more work and says more to a woman's heart :D

These hormones determine our sexuality, control the reproductive process, and regulate blood sugar levels and mineral metabolism. \n\nThis same substance that society has been taught to fear happens to be our sole source for our hormones, androgen, estrogen and progesterone.

Why is the human brain capable of learning for 1,000's of years but we die in 70 or 80?  Not "How"

The answer is that there is a continual battle between two evolutionary strategies taht exist at opposite ends of a spectrum.  The strategies are callef r-selection and K-selection (named for variables in the Verhulst equation of population dynamics).  Each strategy is designed to maximize population under different conditions.\n\nThe r-selective strategy focuses on trying to create as many offspirng as possible in as little time as possible.  There is little attention given to the strength of the individual offspring, and the perpetuation of progeny is accomplished by sheer numbers.  A good example of this is seen in cockroaches and spiders.  A mother might lay thousands upon thousands of eggs, but most of the eggs will not survive until maturity.  In fact, in some species the mother might even devour some of her own young, destroying the weakest who cannot escape while the strongest press on.  Typical of the r-selective strategy is high numbers of offstring per parent, short lives, rapid approach to sexual maturity, and high mortality rates (especially among those not yet sexually mature).\n\nThe K-selective strategy is the opposite.  Each parent will have a few offspring, but they will invest a lot in each offspring (metabolically, behaviorally, etc).  The Emporer Penguin is a good example of the K-strategy (relative to most avian species).  The K-selective species have delayed sexual maturity, lower mortality rates, and fewer births per parent.  These organisms will live a longer time.\n\nThere are forces that pull a species in one direction or another.  If the species is operating at or near the carrying capacity for the species in the habitat, then the drift will be towards K-selection.  If high mortality is inevitable, then things drift towards r-selection.\n\nIn the human world, we see that these sorts of strategies are moving in different directions in real time.  In China, the one-child policy is puching things towards K-selection by creating higher investments in the children (ie parents in China take much more active roles in their childrens lives in China today that was possible when concerns were divided among several children), while in Western Europe the legislative actions that have forced greater invetment in children (ie education and laobr laws) have pushed the K-selective strategy of reducing the number of children (the fertility of Western Europe is extremely low).  Conversely, in war-wotrn places, people are more sexually active at younger ages and have more children, even as infant mortality soars.  In America today, one can see the different approaches between the upper class families which likely have children who will each have college funds and will marry late and have few siblings, compared to larger families in the lower economic ranks where families are likely to be big, kids will have more need to take care of themselves (or even their parents) financially, and sexual activity and pregnancy will likely come at an earlier age.  This is typical of r-selection, and these people will likely live shorter lives.\n\nThe answer then is that the length of the human life is balanced by these things.  Epidemics, crime, and war will shorten the life by means other than genetic means.  But as this happens, the species will only grow if it is able to reporduce quickly and frequently.  While this is happening, natural selection is focused on making the species reproduce quickly, and no "effort" (for want of a better word--please forgive me for anthropomorphisizng the idea of evolution, but it helps to think of the trends in terms of directed action, even though that is not how eveolution works) will be directed toward many quick births.\n\nOnce you pass the age of sexual activity and/or fertility, evolution cannot work on you at all.  Evolution functions by making more offspring in those that successfully reproduce than those that don't.  Successful reproduction can be stopped by death (which is

how can u get over someone commiting suscide?

Just know that their pain they felt here must have been so devistating that they could no longer bare it.For reasons we may never know or understand.Some people are just stronger than others.I had a friend who was only 11yrs, when she commited suicide. It is no ones fault and it will take time to heal the wounds we feel from events like this. Just remember to celebrate their lives in a postive way and don't get stuck in a rut on how they passed.There are support groups out there they you may want to check out. It is a very difficult and confusing issuen to deal with, I wish you luck in your grieving process.

boyfriend has something white on his penis?

Don't engage in any kind of sexual act (oral sex, actual intercourse, kissing), until he gets to a doctor. Not only could he infect you, but he could be putting himself in serious harm if he doesn't go to a doctor. If he doesn't have insurance, check out the planned parenthood site below. They offer STD testing for free, as well as many other services. I went to them when I was younger, and everything is confidential. \n\nThe best of luck to you.


Why did the American people vote for bush a second time?

First of all its not that so many people whom u know dont like Bush that counts. Its democracy. So the final numbers count. It's not just u and me in democracy, but including you and me.\n\nBut if you ask why did they support for Iraq war then I dont know answer, but it reasons to me perfectly that they supported Iraq war directly or indirectly.\n\nIf u look at the US politics, its so amazing that the whole congress passed the war bill on Iraq, and still some of them say they opposed it. Common, lets not change interpretations of Democracy.


What are the advantages of living on your own than living with a roomate?

Well living alone you don't have the stress and argument of where things go, who cleans what and who pays what bills and you get the BIG bedroom(lol)..less stress.\n If you are worried about being lonely then start a game/movie night at your place, same day every week. Join some clubs, and get some hobbies. Just cause you live alone doesn't mean you have to be a hermit.\nI wish you luck in your journey.

I ran out of cash; how do I finance a house remodel that is partially complete?

First off, friends are a great source of cheap labour, even if they don't know how to hold a hammer. Pay them with beer or food from your parents place. If there's any small-scale hardware stores (basically anything OTHER than Home Depot) they usually have damaged or slight scratch and dent materials handy. Other places for stuff include the Habitat for Humanity shops, where they sell used appliances and other great stuff very cheap, to raise money for low-rent housing. Hell, if you live in BC, I'll come do the work for ya ;)

The first layer of a dual later DVD disc is transparent to the laser that writes to the disc. Thereby, it is able to write to the equivalent of two disc surfaces. The RW stands for re-writable. On a normal (R) disc, the laser burns information to a disc. The disc comes from the manufacturer with all zeros on it. All the laser does is burn 1's onto the disc and this burn is permanent. An RW laser rearranges pre-existing 1's that are not really readable by the drive until they are arranged to be seen.

is it unlawful of a company to deny fed govt issued photo id in favor of drivers license?

sounds very odd. I have seen employers take a copy of a utility bill to verify address. Military ID/ fed ID should be accepted everywhere. Technically if you are active duty military your home state is your address, not where you are stationed. So if you are trying to obtain a part-time job, they would have to accept that you may not have a current address since you are active duty military. Talk to base legal about this.

SuperBall (originally Super Ball) is a toy manufactured by Wham-O®. It is an extremely elastic ball made of Zectron®, which contains the rubber polymer polybutadiene and sulfur, having a high coefficient of restitution. When it is dropped from shoulder level onto a hard surface such as concrete, it rebounds to about 90% of the original height. "Superball" has also become something of a generic name for any similarly high-bouncing rubber ball.\nThe original Super Ball was invented by chemist Norman Stingley in his spare time in 1965.\n\nWhen Lamar Hunt saw his daughter playing with a Super Ball, it inspired him to name the new AFL-NFL World Championship Game the Super Bowl

Are "Al Qaeda" and "Ben Laden" big lies?Is it a political fable or deceit?Is it a trumped-up scenario?

1. Who made 9/11 attacks:\na. Physically "Al Qaeda", practically we (US) have some blame on our selves because our middle-eastern policy is very biased towards Israel and we supported dictatorial regimes for a loooong time.\n\nb. Is it a political deceit: Yes & No. \nNo because the attacks did happen and because in 99.99% Al Qaeda was responsible. \nYes because, the US government plays the fear to launch its own geostrategic interests on the name of fighting terrorism. By the same token the British could have labeled the Boston Tea party as American terrorists.\n\n2. No one has ever the complete answer except the ones that did it. B. Laden admitted that he organized it.\n\n3. The only thing you can rely from a politician is that you can not rely on them. Some say politics is the art of the marrying the ideal with the feasible.\n\n4. Catching Saddam was much easier. Saddam does not have an international underground network.\n\n5. The Taleban where Stationary targets and did not launch a guerilla warfare. No member of Al Qaeda walks with an "Al-Qaeda member" stamp on his forehead. They blend with the local population that sometimes is supportive.\n\n6. Guerilla war is much more difficult than Desert Storm. The Iraqi army was sitting ducks. \n\n7.

What is the alternative for fossil fuel?

Fossil fuel is the primary alternative due to price.  As the price of fossil fuel rises, a number of alternatives become more attractive.  Wind energy is an option, but it is not likely to be the main alternative.  Nuclear has a long history for power plants, but very limited short term potential for other applications.  Solar holds tremendous potential.  Gas to liquid technology and coal to liquid technologies are the most likely alternatives in the 5 to 10 year range.  Hybrid cars will help for a while, and in 15 years hydrogen fuel cell cars will start to have a MAJOR impact.

if u can divide any angle into 3 equal angles without using tales theory.?

If you are talking about trisecting an angle using a compass and straight edge, then it is not and unsolved problem, it is problem for which there is no solution.\n\nThere is an area of abstract algebra called Galois theory. One of the things that you learn in Galois theory is that there exist certain angles that cannot be trisected using the kind of techniques that you would use to bisect an angle or line. Flat out can't be done. I recall, but don't quote me on this, that 60 degrees is one example.\n\nAnother thing that comes from Galois theory is that there is no formula, that will give you the roots of a 5th degree polynomial. You are probably familiar with the quadratic equation which gives you the roots of a second degree polynomial. There are formulas that you can use to get the roots of 3rd and 4th degree polynomials. But there can't be a formula that will work for a general 5th degree polynomial.\n\nI know more than one high school student who wasted a lot of time trying to devise a method for trisecting angles when he/she heard it was a great unsolved problem. Their teachers neglected to tell them that it was not only a great unsolved problem, but that it was a great unsolvable problem.

According to scientists, current theory suggests that "fusion" of the element hydrogen into the element helium releases photons.  When the heavier element is made, photons are released from the reactions.  Photons are sometimes described as wavicles, because they can demonstrate the behavior of waves and particles, but neither a wave nor a particle can completely describe a photon.  A photon has a frequency and is an electromagnetic emission.  Photons from the sun come in a huge range of frequencies.  Most useful to humans are the photons that heat things and cause us to see things (light).  \n\nPhotons can be directed to silicon semiconductors in a solar cell.  When the photons collide with the extra electron in the outer shell of an element in the silicon, the electron moves through an electromotive force, causing electric current to flow.  In heating applications, the photons impart kinetic energy to the object they encounter, increasing the net kinetic energy of the body therefore increasing its temperature.  \n\nIf you set out a gallon of "solar tea," the sun will heat the liquid and brew the tea for you.\n\nSome of the most interesting solar energy is released in solar sun-spot activity.  These emissions can interact with our telecommunications systems and power grids with unpredictable and sometimes disasterous results.\n\nTo date, humans harness solar energy by heating things or placing solar cells out to make electric power.  The practical applications include solar heating pool water, solar heating homes, and charging lead-acid batteries for power.

You only need to count how many natural born kids they have to see that they are self-appointed gods determined to take over the world by their descendants. And if means the entire planet will behave like Eddi Amin, welcome to the neighborhood!

What is the difference between UML and OOP(Object Oriented Prog.)?

UML describes how your application is architected, how users interact with it, which classes it implements, the test cases that are used to QA the software, the phases of the development and testing cycle, etc.  It's the "paperwork" behind the application development process.\n\nOOP is methodology for software development...how you implement the functionality of the software.  It deals strictly with programming techniques.\n\nThe two are completely separate and distinct.  You can write a piece of software using OOP principles, and you can design a piece of software "on paper" using UML.  UML can define how your OOP types will be structured and your OOP objects will function, but you can implement an OOP-oriented architecture without UML.

will they ever make the 8th book of harry potter?

J.K. Rowling has stated on many occasions that the seventh Harry Potter book will be her last. There may be spinoff books (like the magical creatures book she did), but the story of Harry and his adventures, according to her, was to only chronicle Harry's life at school for those seven years.

From the King James Verson in Matthew 15:14\n\n"Let them alone: they be blind leaders of the blind.

And if the blind leadeth the blind, both will fall into the ditch."


If you are a male,and are over 30......what do you really want in a woman?

Personally, I want someome I can completely trust! No ifs ands or buts about it. Someone who is completely comitted to making it work. Someone with realistic goals in life and willing to make sacrafices if need be. Someone who is real and the same person all the time.(ex. when she's around you she's one person, when she gets around co-workers she's totally different) Someone who is secure enough in her womanhood to be a woman all the time and knows mostly if not everything she wants in life. This isn't all but it goes both ways


Some of the best Vitamins to keep you healthy and energized start of course with a good multi-vitamin.  I would also recommend a good B-complex vitamin, as the B vitamins play a large role in energy metabolism in the body.  Other than that you would probably want to seek the advice of a Health Care professional, as I don't know your health history, but there are a few others you could add to help with carb and fat metabolism such as Chromium to boost your energy as well by boosting your metabolism.

Is physics really that hard? What classes should be taken before attempting physics?

It depends how far you want to go with physics.  I think that physics is absolutely great for everyone with a decent math background as a supplemental class.  I love it because (among other things) it justifies a lot of the math that you put up with for many years.\n\nIf you want to take physics seriously and are considering it for a major, you should probably give it a whole lot of thought.  Deep physics is buried under abstract concepts and much of your enjoyment depends on your ability to take those abstract mathematical concepts and reapply them to reality.  Personally, I love it!\n\nIf you haven't been exposed to any physics before, you should be comfortable with trigonometry and that SHOULD be enough to get you through an honors physics course.  More importantly, you should be very confident of both your intuition and logic and when to trust one or the other.  Jearl Walker's "The Flying Circus of Physics" is a tad advanced (I don't understand half the problems) but if you can confidently put forth a guess on a physics problem, you should be more than ready for an actual class.


Did anyone else enjoy the old Beauty and the Beast sitcom from years ago?

Check with Tower Records, they have an extensive aisle of nothing but tv shows. Also try Fry's Electronics, possibly Blockbuster.

The discover channel once had a special where they tested the magic bullet theory. \n\nIt scientifically recreated the accident and proved without a doubt that you can VERY EASILLY create a bullet that bounces off bones and takes the exact pattern though a body. \n\nThere were many tests and none of them were far fetched. They were far more thorough than Myth Busters, and proved to me at least that without a doubt there was only 1 gunman and that was Lee Harvey Oswald. \n\nIt was kind of funny though that towards the end of the special after they had recreated the "magic bullet" several times, they took their work (not disclosing it as being a JFK magic bullet test) to some CSI's who specialize in gunshot wounds and all of them told them they had had a shooting and wanted to know what made the shots, if it was 1 gunman or 2, and the Investigators all told them that without a doubt it had to have been two. Which was very amusing since it was NOT 2 people shooting it was only 1.\n\nJames Lyngaas\nhttp://www.thesmartass.info

It's sad.. \n\nInstead of helping people evolve socially.. I feel like their creating a generation of people that are REGRESSING/DE-EVOLVING socially..

How do/can I drum up business for the electronics manufacturing company I work for?

You are right about so much of the electronic business moving off shore. I sold elecronics for 21 years and the last 9 of those years was to an OEM in Shreveport, LA. I suggest you check with all the major appliance manufacturing companies (including commercial), satalite manufacturing, any body you can think of that has some sort of controls. I wish you success.


what activities could we do on the planet neptune?

Probably not much on the planet itself.  Neptune is a gas giant, meaning it does not have a surface, not to mention it is covered with horrible wind storms like the Great Blue Spot.  We could launch probes into Neptune and recieve a signal until the pressure and winds destroyed it.  In the distant future, we may be able to colonize the rocky moons of Neptune, or build orbiting cities above it (again they would have to be in orbit because of the lack of a surface).


What are the characteristics of a pink footed goose?

The Pink-footed Goose (Anser brachyrhynchus) is a goose breeding in Greenland, Iceland and Svalbard. It winters in nortwest Europe, especially Great Britain. The Svalbard-population winters in Belgium, The Nederlands and Denmark.\n\nIt is closely related to the Bean Goose (Anser fabalis). The Pink-footed Goose has the bill short, bright pink in the middle, and the feet also pink, which is diagnostic.\n\nThe upper wing-coverts are nearly of the same bluish-grey as in the Greylag Goose.


what coonection is there between iran and hitlers' third reich ?

There are many connections between Iran and Hitler and I am the best person to answer this, since I recently wrote a paper on it. Persians and Germans, are both from the Aryan race. The Aryan invasion theory states that the Aryans started out from Perisa and throughout years ended up in the Germanic tribes. So truly, Persians are the ture Aryan race. Hitler's master race theory was based on the fact the Aryan race was the purest and the lead. And since Persia was the home of Aryans, since the beginning of Hitler's political life, he had a positive atitude towards Persia. In 1935, when the world was watching as Hitler came to power, the Persian ambassador to Germany sent a cable to Reza Khan, the first shah of the Pahlavi dynasty, stating that Hitler will be a powerfull man and in order to have great relations with him, Persia should change its name to Iran, which means "The land of the Aryans". On March 21, 1935, cables were sent to all ambassadors around the world, to tell the countries to from now on refer to Persia as Iran. Later on during the Second World War, Iran did not want to join the Axis and to be seen as an evil, hence they stated that they were neutral, when in fact many German agents were working in Iran. Due to International Pressure, Iran finally joined the allied forces and declared war on Germany on 9 September, 1943. England and Russia saw Iran as the fastest route to transport supplies to troops in Russia, but Iran said "NO", since it was neutral. So the British and the Russian forces invaded Iran, a neutral country and hence breaking international law. Between November 28 and December 1, 1943, Stalin, Roosevelt, and Churchill the leaders of the three major Allied forces held the Tehran Conference. This confrence was a major event, since the main discussion was about the final attacks on the Nazis.\nI hoped this has helped.\n\nAdditional info: Did you know hitler drove Reza Khan's Mercedes 500K from Iran to Russia to check up on his troops and that the car is currently on display at the National Car museum of Iran.

im pregnant and i am having trouble with my sex life any answers? why?

You should be more specific.  Are YOU having trouble or your other half.\n\nBeing pregnant can make a lot of things go through both of your minds.  Sex is no problem unless there's a complication and you should ask your doctor.  For a man it can be a problem just because of the psychological part not wanting to do any harm to the baby.

Where do i find really cheap U.S. coins?

First, I got yelled at when I was a 12 year old kid for asking for cheap coins.  I walked in to a coin dealership with something like $4, and I wanted a cheap coin and asked for one.  The dealer scoffed, "We don't sell cheap coins, but we do sell inexpensive ones".  I learned the lesson.  Anyway, go to a coin dealer and ask to see "well circulated" buffalo nickels or eisenhowers.  They'll show you some pretty inexpensive ones.

No not at all you're a healthy weight for your height... of course their are many body variations to concider in health: your total BMI (body mass index) how active you are, how muscular your build is or isn't... but most importantly how healthy do you feel? If you feel you're struggling with your body image most times it's better to be safe than sorry and consulting a physician is never a bad idea. Having a clear and healthy perspective of yourself is important and there's a healthy way to be a look healthy. How you feel is what's most important, but make sure it's based on a healthy self-image.


What is sin,cos,tan & cot and how can you use that to say how much a degrre is on a triangle?

I used the acronym sohcahtoa to remeber that sin=opp/hyp cos=adjacent/hyp and tan=opp/adj, so you have a angle you want to measure the degree of that angle, using the lengths of the sides of the triangle opposite, adjacent and hypotenuse and then using your calculater you divide the lengths and hit the button sin-1, cos-1 or tan-1 key, also cot=1/tan, hope that helps


How many people are on the fence about abortion because it is not an issue in their life?

I have given it some thought because my ex-husband had pushed me to have an abortion (after we were married and had other children).  For myself, I could not choose abortion.  But I don't think that the laws are in effect to support (collecting child support is a 50-50 chance in this country) or protect children.\n\nAnd, up to a point, abortion is not much different than the pill or other contraceptive methods.  You still create an egg, that egg can still be fertilized.  It is just "aborted" early enough that you don't think of it that way.\n\nI think if you forbade people (with laws) from having abortions, we would just go back to a time of self-abortions, or abortions in dirty clinics with illegal people (mainly not doctors) performing them and a lot of young girls would lose their lives.\n\nSo given those options, I choose to allow abortion to continue legally.\n\nBut, like you, I sit on the fence, because there are a lot of consequences we don't usually think about.

How is bi-polar disorder dx'd? What profession? Tests?

Great answer by hidden_smiles.  The one thing I would add is that the period of mania can be exhibited as grandiosity.  Rapid speech and multiple ideas coming out at the same time.  An agitated frame of mind, extreme nervousness and paranoia.  Insomnia is a corollary having to do with the nervousness.  In some cases the grandiosity is expressed as irritability and anger.  The difficult thing is that there's no test as such for bipolar (manic-depressive) disorder.  One of the ways that bipolar disorder disorder is deduced is through a long term analysis by a counsellor, social worker or psychiatrist.  Another indicator is an adverse reaction to anti-depressant medication such as Zoloft or Celexa.  In some cases being on this medication can push somebody with bi-polar tendencies towards a state of mania.  The good news is that there are mood stabilizers that can be provided by a licensed psychiatrist if this is diagnosed.  All in all, there is a lot of help for this and a lot of information online.  Good luck to you.

What are some ideas for a history fair project?

Thomas Jefferson lived in France for a period of time following the American Revolution. When he returned, he brought new foods and introduced them to the U.S. Many have since become staples of our culture: macaroni & cheese, ice cream, french fries, for example. \n\nYou could explain the history leading up to Jefferson's time in France, what happened when he was there, give out samples of some of the foods he brought back with him, and talk about the role they play in our everyday lives today.


Coal is composed of highly compacted, dewatered, and dehydrogenated plant material (a process called coalification). The compaction ratio is typically about 20 to 1 for bituminous coals. That means twenty feet of plant material piled up to make one foot of coal. The question of where the mercury came from may still be unanswered, but one group of researchers have suggested that the mercury was absorbed by the ancient plants from the atmosphere and soil while they were living. There is evidence that modern plants have levels of mercury that correspond with the levels found in coal. Even though the mercury levels in coal are low at 0.17 +/- 0.17 ppm the process of burning coal consumes such large volumes of coal that the mercury becomes a serious problem in the emissions from large power plants.

What was/is your favorite subject in School?

There were so many throughout my schoolife its hard to choose. I'd have to say though that without a doubt it was US history and World History in High School.  It wasnt so much the subject matter as it was the teacher.  You know what I mean....i'm sure you've had a small handful of teachers who really made a difference in your life.\n\nIn my US History class my teacher would make us reinact scenes from history using props and putting on plays. He also would come in dressed appropriately with the timeframe we were studying (like dressing like a mountain man when we were studying the frontier period). He even made out different versions of the same test for students to choose (like essay form for people good with words and True/False n multiple choice for people who liked that form of testing).\n\nMy world history teacher was friggin hilarious. He would sit and tell stories about his childhood growing up in the area and all his messed up practical jokes he played on people. He was the kinda guy who was always willing to listen and help any way he could. Super funny and nice guy....

Did Jesus, have brothers and sisters, born of Mary after he was born??

The new guy has obviously been influenced by the _da_Vinci_Code_ or other, similar works that posit that Jesus was married (most likely to Mary Magdalene), and likely had children through that union.\n\nThere are a couple verses in the gospels (depending on your translation - I'm looking at the New International Version) where Jesus is referred to as having brothers; I'd look specifically at Matthew 13:54-56, which says \n\n"54 Coming to his hometown, he began teaching the people in their synagogue, and they were amazed. "Where did this man get this wisdom and these miraculous powers?" they asked. 55 "Isn't this the carpenter's son? Isn't his mother's name Mary, and aren't his brothers James, Joseph, Simon and Judas? 56 Aren't all his sisters with us? Where then did this man get all these things?"\n\nWhile scholars have argued that "brother" might actually mean "cousin" or "other close male relative", the text wouldn't directly support that.\n\nThe wife and children thing can't be disproved Biblically - but neither can it be proven.  Some take the absense of direct reference to a wife as proof, while say that any man referred to as a rabbi/teacher would need to be married to have that status (as per the culture of the time).  Either way, there isn't anything that can be used definitively either way.


Would you want a traditional wedding or something different?

traditional something. but not necessarily the "normal" one. mine was traditional scottish in america to a japanese wife. in a church, with bagpipes, kilt and 9 foot dress for my wife. then a normal one in japan, ie, not traditional (you need to live in japan to realize that few modern couples have traditional japanese weddings) - i would have prefered the traditional japanese to the "western style" that they did.


how can I hook up wifi to my home pc and how does it work?

You will need a wireless router and an wireless card.\n\nEssentially, the wireless router will broadcast a signal, and the card (attached to your computer) will accept the signal and talk with the router.\n\nUsually you use wireless on laptops, in which case, unless you have an internal card, you'll need a PCMCIA wireless card, or a USB wireless card.\n\nIf you're looking to hook up your desktop, a PCI wireless card or USB wireless card will work. Using a wireless card on a desktop computer simply allows you to have your internet conneceted computer anywhere in the house, and you aren't limited to where your phone jacks / cable terminals are. No need to run wires through the house.\n\nI would recommend the Linksys WRT54G & WMP54G or WPC54G, depending on whether it's a laptop or desktop. \n\nFollow the instructions on the device for setting it up.

Responsible doctors don't prescribe antibiotics for viral infections because they know that antibiotics don't help with viral infections.  Unecessary consumption of antibiotics can weaken the immune system because they kill the healthy bacteria that lives naturally in the human body.\n\nColds viruses generally take about two weeks to fully recover from.  If I had a high fever and it didn't go away within five days I would probably go back to the doctor and ask them to test me for a bacterial infection.


How do I choose an online school that offers a "real world accepted" degree?

I myself just started on online college and WOW! i have a 4.0 gpa the best i have ever had, some say it is not as hard, but oh well, it will be a degree. It all really depends on how much you want to spend and if they are accredited? There are a lot of schools so just narrow it down to what you want to do and research those schools. try ctuonline, or regis university, or ? there are so many out there.\n\nctu online is a good school and they have very good customer service.(in my opinion)

why do israelies want the palestinians land ?

Long story short :\n\nThe land used to belong to the Jews, a few thousand years ago. Romans kicked them out. They, in turn, were kicked out by the Arabs. Islam spread. The area became a part of the Ottoman Empire. World War I happpened.\n\nBritain told the Ottomans to support them, if they did, they'd make the whole land one happy large Arab country.\n\nBritain told the Jews to support them, if they did, they'd give them a nice spot where they used to reside in Biblical times.\n\nWhoops. Conflict between Arabs and Jews breaks out, Britain says "Heh". Refers matter to newly created UN. UN splits Palestine up. Arabs weren't happy, attacked Israel.\n\nRepeat and rinse, and we're still fighting for over 50 years.\n\nclumsyguy : Yeah, because the Arabs were there for a few hundred years. No wonder they're angry. \n\nIt's like if the Native Americans started bombing themselves up and demanding the US be returned to their control. While they have a point, it's not our generation's fault, and they should seek a more peaceful way.


Flies have lapping and sucking type mouth parts. They don't 'throw up' as in the sense humans mean it. And to be precise, they have mosaic vision i.e., they can see multiple images so they see pretty clearly where they are headed. and there feet have taste receptors. so if they land on something which they find 'tasty'... they start lapping wih their tongue to soften the food stuff and then suck the liquid in. Its more disgusting than 'throwing up'
