does anyone know wat women used to wash their hair with before shampoo was invented ?

Ok like said... before shampoo was invented... in India one of the major hair washer was Shikakai (Acacia Concinna)... its is a natural-detergent free and soap free shampoo....  Shikakai is a small spindly plant that grows in the arid regions of India and Burma. Its claim to fame is its large pod which has been collected, ground into powder, mixed with water and used for centuries as a gentle cleanser for "lustrous long hair". In fact, "shikakai" literally translates as "fruit for the hair".... The powder of shikakai is mixed with various other herbs, Hibiscus flowers and leaves( softens the hair texture), Amla(deepens the black colour of the hair and makes it healthy), lemon.. (not much.. very less), Fenugreek seeds( again works good for hair) ,soap nuts( a natural detergent.. but very mild) and also some herbal roots are added to this mix. All these are dried under sun and ground to a very smooth powder. \n\nThis is then mixed ith water and applied to well oiled hair. By oiling the hair it will retain a shiny texture. And ofcourse there wont be trace of oil when washed with this mix.\n\nIt is still used by many in India even today... Highly recommended when u have plenty of time to go through the whole process of washing the hair urself.\n\nOther hair conditioners used in India are hibiscus leaves ground to a paste and applied to the hair, aloe vera paste... Henna or Mehendi is used to colouring the hair.... they r all still in use.

If it is still under warranty take it to Sony.\n\nIf you got an extended warranty from the place you bought it then take it to them.\n\nCompUSA will most likely buy the part from Sony and charge you labor for it. That's what most computer repair places do.\n\nYou may want to take it in to a shop and have them back up your data and replace the motherboard, if you are in Houston I could do it, but I doubt you are. My shop would charge for the part plus $85 (not per hour just 85) for labor.\n\nUnless you want to order the part yourself and install it.\n\nThe sony parts site is: http://servicesales.sel.sony.com/\nThe number is: 1-800-488-SONY (7669)

Do blood clots hurt? What else could be making my foot hurt as if it is going to explode?

Go get this looked at NOW if you think it could be a blood clot.  My best friend's husband spent a week in ICU for this.  If it is a clot, parts of it can break off and go to your lungs, heart, or brain.  He had a throbbing and swelling also.  It's probably not a clot, but who wants to take that chance!  I hope you are okay!


33% partial permanent disability equals how much settlement money?

I believe that it's a state by state formula that is used, but there is a formula for determining financial settlement. It also depends upon the body part that is involved. For example, losing 33% use of your right toe would be less disabling than 33% of your right hand.

problems of synchronization and communication in concurrent problem.?

The solution depends on your particular situation. For example in Unix-like environments you can handle the communication with either pipes, sockets, shared memory, or files. The synchronization is handled by using semaphores, mutexes. The book Advanced Programming in the Unix Environment by Richard Stevens has a great treatment of each of these issues.\n\nIn general you want to protect any data-structure that is both shared and subject to modification with a mutex or a semaphore. Mutexes are used when only one thread/process should access the structure at a time. Semaphores can do this too, but they also allow you to grant multiple accesses  for things like buffers.\n\nAdditionally specific libraries and systems also provide some additional feaures. The pthreads specification/library has a notion of signaling, so you can have threads/processes block waiting for a condition to be "signaled" by another before proceeding with an operation.\n\nFinally some languages have added support for concurrent programming. Ada, C#, and Java all provide language level constructs that you can used to insulted yourself from the details of how synchronized access to data-structures is accomplished. For example C# provides the lock {  <STATEMENT>+ } construct to execute a set of statements atomically. Java provides the "synchronized" keyword that can be applied to a method that should be executed atomically.


Anyone care to explain this scripture?  I Cor. 15:29?

I don't know if this helps but it is the the notes\nfrom "Clarke" in e-sword\nPraying God blesses u in ur search for answers....\nShaz\nx x x x x x\n\n1 Cor 15:29 - \nElse what shall they do which are baptized for the dead - This is certainly the most difficult verse in the New Testament; for, notwithstanding the greatest and wisest men have labored to explain it, there are to this day nearly as many different interpretations of it as there are interpreters. I shall not employ my time, nor that of my reader, with a vast number of discordant and conflicting opinions; I shall make a few remarks:\n1.The doctrine of the resurrection of our Lord was a grand doctrine among the apostles; they considered and preached this as the demonstration of the truth of the Gospel.\n2.The multitudes who embraced Christianity became converts on the evidence of this resurrection.\n3.This resurrection was considered the pledge and proof of the resurrection of all believers in Christ to the possession of the same glory into which he had entered.\n4.The baptism which they received they considered as an emblem of their natural death and resurrection. This doctrine St. Paul most pointedly preaches, Rom_6:3-5 : Know ye not that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ, were baptized into his death? Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death; that like as Christ was raised up from the dead, even so we also should walk in newness of life: for, if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in his resurrection.\n5.It is evident from this that all who died in the faith of Christ died in the faith of the resurrection; and therefore cheerfully gave up their lives to death, as they took joyfully the spoiling of their goods, knowing in themselves that they had in heaven a better and an enduring substance, Heb_10:34.\n6.As is the body, so are the members; those who were properly instructed, and embraced Christianity, believed that as all who had died in the faith of Christ should rise again, so they were baptized in the same faith.\n7.As so many of the primitive followers of Christ sealed the truth with their blood, and Satan and his followers continued unchanged, every man who took on him the profession of Christianity, which was done by receiving baptism, considered himself as exposing his life to the most imminent hazard, and offering his life with those who had already offered and laid down theirs.\n8.He was therefore baptized in reference to this martyrdom; and, having a regard to those dead, he cheerfully received baptism, that, whether he were taken off by a natural or violent death, he might be raised in the likeness of Jesus Christ’s resurrection, and that of his illustrious martyrs.\n9.As martyrdom and baptism were thus so closely and intimately connected, βαπτιζεσθαι, to be baptized, was used to express being put to a violent death by the hands of persecutors. So Mat_20:22, Mat_20:23 : “But Jesus answered and said, Are ye able to drink of the cup that I shall drink of? etc.” (Can ye go through my sufferings?) “They say unto him, We are able. He saith unto them, Ye shall indeed drink of my cup,” (ye shall bear your part of the afflictions of the Gospel), “and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with (that is, ye shall suffer martyrdom.) See also Mar_10:38. So Luk_12:50; “I have a baptism to be baptized with; and how am I straitened till it be accomplished!” That is, I must die a violent death for the salvation of men.\n10.The sum of the apostle’s meaning appears to be this: If there be no resurrection of the dead, those who, in becoming Christians, expose themselves to all manner of privations, crosses, severe sufferings, and a violent death, can have no compensation, nor any motive sufficient to induce them to expose themselves to such miseries. But as they receive baptism as an emblem of death in voluntarily going under the water, so they receiv

Are all consonants vocalized while vowels may or may not be vocalized?

No. All vowels are vocalized. Vocalizing means that your vocal cords are vibrating. Non-vocalized sounds are done through air pops or hisses. Try saying your vowels. Hear that voice coming from your throat?\n\nConsonants can be either. Touch your throat while you hum the following consonant sounds... M    N   V  L  Do you hear your voice from your throat? Do you feel the vibration with your fingers? Those are vocalized.\n\nNow, here are some non-vocalized: T  K   F   S\n\nHear the difference?\n\nMany consonants are vocalized/non-vocalized partners... the lips and tounge are in the same place for both:\n\nB/P, V/F, K/G, D/T, S/Z\n\nHope this helps!

I feel just the same way you do; we ought to just get on with it and wish each other well.


Why do people have no regard for the pain and suffering of animals?

Actually, in most cases I find it's just the opposite. A lot of my friends can't watch the scene in Braveheart where horses get killed. They don't have a problem with the human violence, but they simply cannot stand seeing the horses getting killed. One of my teachers actually brought this up in a class one time: why is the suffering of animals so much worse than the suffering of humans?\n\nBut, with regards to people who actually DO fit your profile: there was a belief that since animals had no souls (which, at the time, was an undisputed fact), they couldn't actually feel pain. And even if they whine and scream and cry, they're only reacting in a way that they think they should react instead of actually feeling pain. Of course, most people these days say that's b*llshit, but, well...you gotta love archaic medical science.

As the one man stated you need some wind whether it is blowing hard on the day you want to fly the kite or a gentle wind blowing that is above the trees.   Once you have the wind then it is the technique of how to make it fly.   If you have a friend, you will have them to hold it level and as you start to run they can help toss the kite in the air which will give you a little advantage to get the kite started.   As you run you will let out some string but do not try to let it out too much until you start to catch some wind  Once you catch the wind on the kite you can start to let the string out as far as you want but be careful due to if the wind start to stop blowing , you will need to start winding in the string and moving to catch a different gust of wind.  If you do not your kite will start to float down and crash.  Now with one person it is a little trickier.  Some will let it lie on the ground and try to get it off the ground but I like to start to run and let out the string just a little and try to catch a gust of wind that may be a little lower to the ground. As far as lift off with one person do the same as the two person but with a little less string and then as you run you will create that underdraft on the kite and start to let it out but if you let it out too much you will not get it to fly due to the more string you let out the faster you have to run to still create that underdraft to keep the kite flying....


how could my team be so badly beaten by a ten man Chelsea yesterday?

I think it was just that West Ham were not playing at the top of their game like they have been through the season, combined with the fact that Chelsea were 1-0 down with ten men and that it was a derby game they had nothing to lose and threw everything at West Ham and it worked because attack is the best form of defence, and as much as every body is anti Chelsea they haven't been at the top of the league all season on luck so don't feel to put out about being beaten by them, West Ham have achieved so much this season and proved they are a premiership team, feel for me I'm a Portsmouth supporter we've won three games in a row and drawn against Blackburn and are still 2nd bottom, i still hold out hope of premiership football next season tho

Does loose vaginas mean a lot of sex or shes been with a big penis?

it actually does not necessarily mean either.\nsome people are just genetically like that, i know even women who have had babies and claim that they r not loose at all after doing exercises (Kegel-check out link)\nalso, even if she was with a guy who was big, the muscles would tighten back up after a while of not being with that person.  and same thing with having lots of sex, i mean think about it, just because u use your leg muscles a lot for walking, and even when u stretch them, they dont randomely get loose and sag, right? well, same there.  so maybe u should show this lady the link and get her on her merry way to a tighter and happier vagina!

when windmills extract energy from the wind, what effect does this have on the climate?

I like this question. All the talk about alternative energy, and people have not considered that they all have negative environmental impact. SOlar, wind, hydro, tidal all will have some negative impact. \n\nI am convinced that windmills have negative environmetal efects but the true effect will no be know unless there are a bigger number of windmilss out there. What I can say right now is that they kill a large number of birds.


not necessarily...depending on your current times, unless you need to drop a couple of hundreths you will fare just as well with a faskskin 1 (which can be found for a lot less).  alexander popov still swims in just a brief.\n\nthe technology of the fastskin 2 is the best available, don't get me wrong, but it is more so just a marketing scheme to get you to spend more on thier product than anything.  you will in all likelyhood be just as fast in a fastskin 1, or even good tyr/nike suit of similiar quality.\n\nyour training is what will get you results...a brand new competition suit is just the sprinkles on the icing on the cake.

does the legalization of abortion help protect a woman's rights?

There are more reasons than "I didn't want the baby" that women have abortions.  Health (of mother and fetus), rape, age, lifestyle, are some factors in why a woman chooses to abort.  If Abortion wasn't legal, She wouldn't have the law and health care providers looking out for her overall welfare (for her and her unborn fetus).  In the grand scheme of things, it's only in recent history that women have even been consider as actual people with rights.  We have made great strides in that arena in a very short period, but the fact of the matter is...men unfortunately still hold governmental power, and if abortion wasn't legal, we would be taking HUGE leaps backward in equal civil rights for ALL humans regardless of race, or sex.  When most people think of abortion, they think that women use it as a form of birth control...and while I"m not argueing that they don't (because a small percentage do) But most people don't realize that there are many factors that go into making that kind of decision, and if it's taken away from us, then in effect, we are being told that we don't have a right to choose. Women can't get pregnant without a man...whether it be through physical contact, or insemination.  Taking away the right to an abortion takes away the right for us to decide what we want to do with our body...It's easy for a man to get a woman pregnant. It's not always easy for a woman to give birth, and a lot of women have died trying.    Might as well take away our right to vote, or our right to hold a job, or our right to not have a man tell us what to do and when to do it (which at one point in history was a law).  Abortion is about women, plain and simple...We are the only ones that have the power of giving birth...and until men can start giving birth, they are going to do everything they can to take away our rights as individuals with that power, and this is one way they are trying. And you can better believe that if men ever become capable of giving birth, there would be no way abortion would even be talked about as an issue...it would just be law, plain and simple...because making abortion illegal is only about how men can control women.


Is it better for a team like West Brom to be relegated, or to escape relegation only to struggle again?

u cant b sure that if they escape relegation, they'll struggle again... u must keep in mind that teams 4 the lower division r also gettin promoted... these teams will struggle more than a team like wes brom... n if these kind of teams escape relegation, they'll hav enough financial power 2 buy newer n better players 2 strengthen their squad... \nif they get relegated, all their star player will move out.. jus like norwich for eg.

I need to find the missing numbers for my son 5th grade math?

Okay, the largest odd digit is nine, so you know the first one has to be nine, as the first blank is in the hundreds place.  \n\n--> 9 _ _ . _ _\n\nNo you must choose digits for the rest of the numbers so that the digit in the ones place is both twice as big as the digit in the hundreths places, and half as big as the digit in the tenths place.  But also, the digit in the tens place must be twice as big as the digit in te tenths place, so what you have here is:\n\ntens place digit = twice the tenths place digit \n\ntenths place digit = twice the ones place digit \n\nones place digit = twice the hundreths place digit.\n\nSo you can see that the larger of the remaining digit has got to be the tens place digit, and also, that the tens place digit has to be even (as well as the other digits save possibly the hundreths place one).  So, without getting into algebra or anything like that, you just pick a good large even digit for the tens place digit.  We'll go with 8, the largest even digit.  We see that:\n\n8/2 = 4 --> tenths place digit is 4.\n\n4/2 = 2 --> ones place digit is 2.\n\n2/2 = 1 --> hundreths place digit is one.\n\nThese satisfy all of the requirements, so your final number is:\n\n982.41\n\nHope that helps.

After a 10 year relationship I am going on my first "first date".  Any suggestions for a extremly nervous man?

Take it easy! A date is just a date. I know it can be nerve-wrecking sometimes...but just chill! Keep in mind that you are very interesting, very nice, very polite and give yourself all kinds of props! It will help you feel better! Then when you are actually on the date, just be casual, be funny--don't let your nerves get the best of you--women don't like nervous men, because that shows insecurity! So if you feel nervous just smile, think of a joke in your head...you know, keep yourself thinking positive! If you want to know more....visit Payton Kane's website...I leave the link below

It was a term used in the early 1950s among blacks to denote having sex.  The music that was emerging at that time immitated the rhythm of a couple having sex and thus black musicians began calling that music "rocking and rolling".

i want to join a newspaper as a columnist is there any special qualification to be a columnist?

I once had a column in a Filipino-American newspaper based in California, USA. I am not a writer nor was I trained to be one. I was a member of many Filipino discussion group when the publisher of the newspaper offered me a column. I didn't know I have the talent for writing nor I graduated from any communications degree. \n\nThat time, I was just a housewife and have plenty of time to engage in many discussion groups. I was hesitant at first because I never thought I can qualify or who would read my column. I was able to contribute for several months but when I started working again, I can'f find time so I have to discontinue the column. \n\nI don't think you have to have special qualification to be a columnist. You just have to choose your niche for a certain newspaper. In my case, they needed someone from the Philippines to tell other Filipinos in the US or in other parts of the globe what has been happening from their home country. \n\nMaybe you can find what your interests really are and work on this, then write the publisher. Who knows, they might like your idea. Don't be scared to be rejected. It comes to all writers who want their work published. As one movie title say, No Guts, No Glory. Its your choice. Fear rejection and rot. Face it and enjoy the glory.

I'm not saying it's totally necessary though, cuz I've seen guys look pretty good without watches, but it's a nice feature.  \n\nI'm NOT into chains...like gold chains around the neck, or chains hanging from your pocket. There are some good necklaces out there for guys that look really good. Like the stuff at Hollister or Abercrombie, kinda that surfer look...I like that kind of stuff on guys.


why are so many guys focused on having a threesome?

Those kinds of guys are usually the dumbed-down jocks who tend to view life as a pie-eating contest, and view all women as nothing more than somekind of dessert. It's people like that who cause everyone else to be stereotyped, because all they are interested in is constantly working to outdo and outperform each other in every way they can, and prove they are somehow better or more macho or other really dumb and ridiculous bullSh like that.

Anybody know the origin of the Phoenix or firebird?

It is an assyrian bird,, according to my old mythology teacher .......\n\nThis I Found on line:\nThere are two similar versions of the account of the phoenix. In the first, it is a bird that lives in India. When it reaches the age of five hundred years, it flies to a frankincense tree and fills its wings with spices. In early spring a priest at Heliopolis covers an alter with twigs. The phoenix comes to the city, sees the alter, lights a fire there and is consumed by it. The next day a small, sweet-smelling worm is found in the ashes. On the second day the worm has transformed into a small bird, and on the third has the form of the phoenix again. The bird then returns to its place of origin.\n\nThe second version says that the phoenix is a purple or red bird that lives in Arabia. There is only one living phoenix in the world at any time. When it is old, it builds a pyre of wood and spices and climbs on to it. There it faces the sun and the fire ignites; it fans the fire with its wings until it is completely consumed. Some say it is the sun that ignites the fire; others say that the phoenix starts it by striking its beak against a stone, or that stones gathered with spices in the pyre rub together to create a spark. A new phoenix rises from the ash of the old.\n\nOther versions of the story combine parts of the above accounts. The tale of the phoenix is very old and was widely known throughout antiquity, with many variations.\n\nIF you wanna read more you can go here:\nhttp://bestiary.ca/beasts/beast149.htm\n\nHope this helps!

I'm in love with a woman that has 3 kids by 3 different men. Can this work with a 35 yr old guy with 0 kids?

I think that if it were me... You would be the better choice... less numbers in the equation. your kids and hers wouldnt have to get along since you dont have any. the only thing i can think of is that she might not want to have anymore children and you do. Just talk to her and tell her you want to be a stable father and husband. IF your not to that point tell her what you feel about everything and i mean everything write down questions and answer them and talk to her about them to see how much you have in common.

I have done some pretty extensive research on computer processors, including the AMD X2 and FX series.  My overall suggestion is to go with either the FX-60, or one of the X2 series.  I say this because by having two cores (X2) then you are capable of running multiple threads in parallel.  Also consider what the computer will be used for.\n  IF a Gaming computer:\n     FX-57, FX-60, or Intel Pentium 4 Extreme Edition.\n  IF an office computer:\n     AMD 3800 X2 or better, I would also reccomend the Intel 930D and above.\n  IF just a low performance computer:\n     Go with a single core Intel, some of the AMD 64 bit lines have problems.

what does adjective/verb/noun word maps focuses on?

I googled your question and came up with the following (in quotes) on the site listed below in Sources.\n\n"This flexibility also has a drawback: the difficulty of classifying words due to their multiple word-class membership, which is so characteristic of English words and which can lead to word families whose members all look alike. An extreme case is the family containing the noun, adjective, verb and adverb which all share the form right and have quite closely related meanings:\n\nI insist on the right of reply. \n\nShe held it in her right hand.\n\nRight the boat, please!\n\nShe went right to the end of the road."

how can i make soler panel for an house have load of more then 5kw a.c ?

Well, if you can't even spell "solar" I doubt you would have the skills to mount and solder more than 2,000 4"x4" solar cells together, add blocking diodes, and wire the whole thing up in a weatherproof frame without breaking about half of the delicate little buggers.  If you need that much power, you're not going to save much of anything by trying to build your own.  Buy some ready made.


Who discovered the theory of relativity??

From jacko's response, I wanted to clear something up.  He did not win the nobel prize for relativity.  He won it his explanation of the photoelectric effect in 1905.  Unfortunately a large number of people believe he got the nobel prize for this and wanted to make sure what you said didn't propagate this even more.  He was a great man and did many more things for the field of physics than just relativity, several of which made numerous advances by other physicists possible.

Is it possible to love someone you have neva met so much that for feel you empty wiv out the person?

I loved this question..gives me a chance to tell my story, lol.  YES! it's very possible!  I'm not saying that ppl don't lie online, and turn out to be someone entirely different when a person meets them, but not everyone is that way.  Here's my story....\n\nI met my husband over a year and a half ago online.  LOL, yes, you read right, my husband!  We just got married March 23.  From the moment we started talking, it was just..."right".  We fell in love almost instantaneously.  We are truly soulmates.\n\nAnyway, I'm all for following your heart.  I can't count how many times friends would tell me to "wait and see" when we met.  But not having met yet didn't matter to us.  I flew to where he lived, he picked me up from the airport, and within an hour we were married.  One look into each other's eyes and everything we had felt for a year and a half had been solidly confirmed.\n\nWhatever you do, follow your heart, follow your instincts.  I did and all of my dreams came true.  I found and married my soulmate...ONLINE!

Superficial reflexes \nElicited by gentle cutaneous stimulation \nThe plantar reflex tests the integrity of the spinal cord from L4 to S4 and is elicited by drawing a blunt object downward along the lateral aspect of the sole of the foot. The normal response is curling of the toes, but if the primary motor cortex or corticospinal tract is damaged, Babinski’s sign occurs (the big toe dorsiflexes and the smaller toes fan laterally). \nThe abdominal reflex occurs when the skin of the lateral abdomen is stroked to the side, above or below the umbilicus. The umbilicus will move towards the stimulated site. This checks the integrity of the spinal cord from T8 to T12.\n \nDeep tendon reflexes \nOpposite of the stretch reflex – muscle relaxation and lengthening in response to contraction. \nDeep tendon reflexes are polysynaptic and ipsilateral

what does it mean when somebody tells you "You have more curiosity than the proverbial cat"?

Proverbial means from a proverb.  There is an old saying "curiosity killed the cat" - it's not exactly a proverb, but that's what the person meant when he / she said that.  Cats are notoriously curious - more than is good for them.  If you've ever owned one, it has certainly gotten into all kinds of trouble around the house I'm sure - falling into fish tanks, knocking things over etc.  \n\nCuriosity killed the cat is a well-known proverb to warn against being too inquisitive lest you come to harm.\n\nThe earliest printed reference to the origin of this proverb is attributed to British playwright Ben Jonson in his 1598 play, Every Man in His Humour (performed first by British playwright William Shakespeare).\n\n...Helter skelter, hang sorrow, care will kill a cat, up-tails all, and a pox on the hangman.\n\nIn this instance, "care" was defined as "worry" or "sorrow."\n\nShakespeare used a similar quote in his circa 1599 play, Much Ado About Nothing:\n\nWhat, courage man! what though care killed a cat, thou hast mettle enough in thee to kill care.\n\nThe proverb apparently remained the same until at least 1898. E. Cobham Brewer included this definition in his Dictionary of Phrase and Fable:\n\nCare killed the Cat. It is said that "a cat has nine lives," yet care would wear them all out.\n\nThe earliest known printed reference that is similar in style and meaning to the current proverb is O. Henry's short story Schools and Schools from 1909:\n\nCuriosity can do more things than kill a cat; and if emotions, well recognized as feminine, are inimical to feline life, then jealousy would soon leave the whole world catless.\n\nThe earliest known printed reference to the actual phrase occurred in The Washington Post on 4 March 1916 (page 6):\n\nCURIOSITY KILLED THE CAT.\n\nFour Departments of New York City Government Summoned to Rescue Feline.\n\nFrom the New York World.\n\nCuriosity, as you may recall—\n\nOn the fifth floor of the apartment house at 203 West 130th street lives Miss Mable Godfrey. When she came to the house about seven months ago she brought Blackie, a cat of several years' experience of life.\n\nThe cat seldom left the apartment. He was a hearth cat, not a fence cat, and did not dearly love to sing. In other respects he was normal and hence curious.\n\nLast Tuesday afternoon when Miss Godfrey was out Blackie skipped into the grate fireplace in a rear room. He had done this many times before. But he had not climbed up the flue to the chimney. This he did Tuesday. Blackie there remained, perched on the top of the screen separating the apartment flue from the main chimney, crying for assistance. Miss Godfrey, returning, tried to induce her pet to come down. If you are experienced in felinity, you know that Blackie didn't come down.\n\nOn Wednesday the cat, curiosity unsatisfied, tried to climb higher—and fell to the first floor. His cries could still be heard by Miss Godfrey; who, to effect Blackie's rescue, communicated with the following departments:\n1. Police department.\n2. Fire department.\n3. Health department.\n4. Building department.\n5. Washington Heights court.\n\nAmong them they lowered a rope to Blackie. But it availed neither the cat nor them anything.\nThursday morning, just before noon, a plumber opened the rear wall back of the chimney. Blackie was taken out. His fall had injured his back. Ten minutes later Blackie died.\n\nThe proverb, though, has been widely attributed to Eugene O'Neill who included the variation, "Curiosity killed a cat!" in his play Diff'rent from 1920:\n\nBENNY—(with a wink) Curiosity killed a cat! Ask me no questions and I'll tell you no lies.\n\n[edit]\nCuriosity killed the cat, but satisfaction brought it back.\nThe origin of this variation is unknown. But, the earliest printed reference occurs in a horoscope printed in The Lima News (Lima, Ohio) from 14 September 1966 (pag

what  are the functions of presonnel managment?

Personnel management is about making sure organisations get the best from the people who work for them. Professionals in this role are involved in selecting the right sort of staff and promoting practices which ensure they are managed effectively.\n\nThe terms ‘personnel’ and ‘human resources’ are largely interchangeable, although the latter does imply more of a strategic approach. There are a range of specialisms but those starting out often take generalist roles assisting with all aspects and may move into specialist areas after a promotion.\n\nThe main areas of work are:\n\nRecruitment and selection\n\nWorking alongside staff in the various departments, drawing up job descriptions, preparing advertisements, checking application forms, interviewing and sometimes testing applicants. There may also be involvement in redeployment and redundancy programmes.\n\nEmployee development\n\nThis includes induction for new staff, developing appraisal systems, analysing training needs and evaluating the effectiveness of what is delivered. Some personnel staff are involved in producing and presenting training materials.\n\nEmployee relations\n\nDealing with all the tricky bits like grievances, disciplinary proceedings, redundancy programmes and resolving differences between staff members. This can also include responsibility for developing equal opportunities policies, writing staff handbooks and advising on contractual issues\n\nEmployee services\n\nPutting together staff perks and benefits - anything from private health cover or cheap holidays to social events or stress counselling services.\n\nPay and benefits\n\nJob evaluation is a significant part of the role, ensuring salaries are a fair reflection of demands of a job.\n\nHuman resource planning\n\nPredicting future staffing needs and ensuring development and training policies reflect the long term needs of the organisation.

Does anyone know how to set valve lash on chevy 292 straight six, with hydralic lifters?

Valve lash on a hydraulic lifter? whaaaa? well if you need to know and you do have adjustable rockers on a hydraulic cammed engine then here ya go. The engine should be warm, remove the valve cover, disconnect the coil, bump the engine so that the number 1 cylinder is off cam and use a feeler gauge to check the room between the valve and the rocker, if the rocker is adjustable which I doubt loosen the nut on top and turn it till the feeler gauge(whatever lash thickness you want)slides out a little tight then tighten nut on rocker arm, repeat for all cyliders by bumping engine over till the cam lobe is at bdc for each cylinder as you move down the engine.

"Psalms" is one of the books of the Bible. It gets this name from the fact that it is a collection of individual poems each known as a "psalm" which was originally set to music.\n\nFor easy reference each book of the Bible is broken down into chapters and verses. Normally this is written chapter:verse so 417 could refer to 4:17 (chapter 4, verse 17) 41:7 (chapter 41 verse 7). However Psalms chapter 4 has only 8 verses so perhaps it refers to chapter 41 verse 7.\n\nPsalm 41 is a poem attributed to David, who was King over Jerusalem around 1000 B.C. You can read Psalm 41 in any Bible. A variety of translations are available online at www.gospelcom.net.\n\nIn the King James Version of the bible, Psalm 41:7 reads, "All that hate me whisper together against me: against me do they devise my hurt."

why are fraternities and sororities a good thing?

First I'll start off by telling disspelling the myths some uneducated people said!\n\nThey are a great thing if you make the best out of it and use every possible advantage it can give you! doent listen to 'sweetbeanie' i doubt she knows squat about greek life\n\nThe greek system DOES NOT glorify conformity and discourage individuality. Many people think that simply because they usually see fraternity borthers or sorority sisters always hangout together. Guess what though pledging is where you become extremely close to your pledge brothers and the brothers or sisters in the house. I never realized how close I would be to these people just through becoming their brother. I never new how much i had in common with the brothers until I got to talking to them. I was in many of the same other clubs as my brothers and the brothers in the fraternity house, I knew them through the many clubs I was involved with and I still wasn't that close. If you want to meet a variety of people join a fraternity or sorority or just go around campus and talk to a variety people. In the clubs i am a member of I don't see much variety. In the glass blowing club see a bunch of stoners and it the frisbee club I see a bunch of lazy people that couldn't make it on the sports teams. In my fraternity I am now hanging out with people i never knew or would think about talking to until i joined. Current greek houses do not have a imposed standards to be a brother.\n\nNow let me explain to you why i joined a fraternity!\n\nI join to meet new people and make new friends. Before the fraternity I was involved with 3 major clubs on my college campus and one I help start from scratch, so my reason was that i didn't have any friends, I wanted more. Also the opprotunities of brotherhood and business connections. I would be lying if the social scene didn't cross my mind as well. Academics were a big part alot of my borthers are economic majors like myself and I can ask them for help when ever. Finally I love the community service, I am my fraternities community service chair.\n\nmy college allows you to pledge as a sophmore so this is away to make sure you don't rely on a fraternity for friends. I am guessing you are in your second semester of your freshman year so you probably already have your friends. My fraternity doesn't keep me from hanging with my friends i made before them as some will say they do.\n\nI picked this house simply cause the great community serivice I heard of. Also I met some of the brothers my freshman year. Also my friends from freshman year all liked this fraternity so that is why we decided to rush this one.\n------------------------------\nIf you are worried about if it is for you talk to the brothers in the house and ask them questions they will answer them. I know before I pledged I talk to the current president of my house multiple times as well as some of the brothers before I knew it was for me.

The purpose of the income statement is to show managers and investors whether or not the company made or lost money during the period being reported.


Why do secretaries think they own the company they work for?

probably because they are sleeping with whoever is in charge and if anyone messes with her, she'll get them fired.\n\nps.  the most important people of the company are the people who do WORK.  secretaries do not add any unique value to the company.  anyone can do their job, yet they think they are god's gift to the company...if value is measured by salaries, secretaries would be at the low end of the corporate totem pole.  \n\nknow your role.\n\npps i gaurantee secretaries won't eventually run a company.  people with MBAs run companies, not people with GEDs.\n\nguido - do you work for a company that requires brain dead employees?  you probably do, because that's the only way you're going to run that train wreck.  you would be completely f*cked if you tried to run an engineering or any other technical company.  please do yourself a favor and stop conforming to the standard posed in this question.  did you even go to college?  doubtful.  if you did, you probably have a degree in english, art, history, or something similiarly useless.

I hope you're still reading answers.  This is more common than you probably think.  Dr. Phil did an entire episode on this and has an entire section on his website.  After reading many psychology and relationship books and going to 4 years of therapy plus couples counseling with some very renound doctors in Los Angeles, I realized how many people have issues with intimacy.  Sex is intimacy.  Many men result to porn because there is a disassociation with having to get really intimate.  They can just get to the point.  In most societies, men aren't taught how to become intimate (vulnerable).  It's viewed as a weakness.  Only in relationships through a strong women's leadership does a man learn a lot of those behaviors.  I don't think your problem is physical as much as it is emotional and mental.  The categories we fall into as far as priorites are the following: for men it's Physical, Mental, Emotional, Spiritual.  For women it's Emotional, Mental, Physical, Spiritual.  you can see that we are clearly programmed different.  The key is trying to find a good balance.  Trying to get in touch with each other's vulnerabilities.  I totally disagree with the comment of look at it with him.  That only distances you more.  Not an option.  You have to gently lead him and teach him (without him realizing he's being taught) how to get into the mental and emotional part of intimacy (sex).  You can do this several ways:  when you're NOT in bed, ask him "what was the worst thing an old girlfriend did to you?"  this gives you insight into his fears or insecurities and then acknowledge that that couldn't have been easy for him.  Second: what do you like most about sex?  Really important to pick up clues here.  He will either describe very physical things OR things like "I like to see you naked, I like to touch, I like this, that".  This says that he is in touch with the mental-good!  And learn to play on those likes.  Also, do not feel ashamed to say "listen, I have to say that it bothers me when you look at porn because I feel inadaquate as a women, I feel like I'm not good enough, I feel threatened that I can't measure up and I'd really like you to stop".  The Harville Hendrix book (NY Times best seller and on Oprah all the time) is a fabulous book.  changed my life, Oprah's and many others!!!

how can you tel if someone has remote access to ones home computer?

What's a good beginger paintball marker?

spider is a good one and 98 custom is very popular gun. i have one and i love it. the 98 custom u can change the size of the barrel and also make it look like a m4a1 aka colt carbine. the top of the line guns/markers r bob longs and angels. they have the best accuracy and firing speed but they will range from like $1000-1500+. and also u have a choice of wut gas to use. u have a choice between co2 (carbon dioxide) and also nitrogen. nitrogen imo shoots the paintball faster. u can also have a battery operated reloader. last i checked they were like 35-50. always remember to clean ur paintball gun after use so the 'dirt' from the paintballs doesnt get stuck in the chamber and not shoot.


I do not understand women, would the study of quantum mechanics help?

The problem with women is that understanding them is much like the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle.  You can know their mood or their rationalization for their actions, but never both at the exact same time.   Attempting to ascertain one will most definitely have an impact on the other.\n\nSo, in some sense it might help, but you run into the same limitations as you do when examining subatomic particles.

What is real, what is not? Our eyes trick us thinking that things have colors, but it is just perseption?

People have different perceptions/realities, based on personal experience (including auditory, sensory, visual) and knowledge. We are greatly limited in our knowledge by perceiving only three dimensions. So, the answer to your question is : ALL THINGS ARE A PERSONAL REALITY .....Unfortunately, too few humans are open-minded enough to realize that their own reality is not a universal truth.

give me a word that all vowels are arranged alphabetically?

Abstemious, abstentious, adventitious, aerious, annelidous, arsenious, arterious, caesious, facetious, phragelliorhynchus\n\nThese are the words arranged with vowels arranged alphabetically.


The number in front of a letter which represents either an unkown value or a variable (something that changes) is called the coefficient.  The mathematical operation understood is multiplication, that is, if you have the expression 4X, it means 4 multiplied by X.  In linear funcitons, the coefficient is the constant rate of change or the slope.  In the example y=5x+2; the "5" is the steepness of the line (the slope of the line), another way to think of this is that for every 1 the x increases, the y increases by 5.  \n\nThe coefficient in other functions like quadratic or cubic (x squared or x cubed) affect the function differently depending on what term it precedes.  But the lead coefficient, the one in front of the highest power of x, basically controls how fast the function increases or decreases.

When was the first legal biracial marriage in the United States?

Some states never had restrictions on interracial marriage.  For example, New York, Vermont, and New Hampshire never had laws prohibiting interracial marriage.  However, many states did have such laws.  In 1967 the United States Supreme Court held that laws prohibiting interracial marriage were unconstitutional in the landmark case of Loving v. Virginia.  After that case was decided, all states had to permit interracial marriage.\n\nIf you want to read the case of Loving v. Virginia: http://wings.buffalo.edu/law/bclc/web/loving.htm\n\nHere is a map of the interracial marriage laws in different states from 1662-1967: http://www.lovingday.org/map.htm

what's the different between idioms and pharasal verbs in English?

It's not quite accurate to speak of "a difference between idioms and phrasal verbs".  Rather, phrasal verbs are one specific type of idiom.\n\nAn idiom is "a phrase which has a meaning that is commonly understood by speakers of the language, but whose meaning is often different from the normal meaning of the words"\n\nPhrasal verbs are "idiomatic expressions, combining verbs and prepositions to make new verbs whose meaning is often not obvious from the dictionary definitions of the individual words. They are widely used in both written and spoken English, and new ones are formed all the time as they are a flexible way of creating new terms."\nhttp://www.usingenglish.com/reference/phrasal-verbs/\n\nFor examples and discussion of a three-fold classification of phrasal verbs (into "separable", "inseparable" and "intransitive", based on what they do with nouns and pronouns) see: http://owl.english.purdue.edu/handouts/esl/eslphrasal.html

how did the new deal change the role of the federal government?

it was the largest federal government expansion in american history. it gave more power to the executive branch of government. The states were not able to successfully get out of the depression, so they gave up some of their state rights in order for the federal government to help them. This gave the federal government much more power in which to start new programs and agencies. (ie: social security) I'd say it was successful at the time, but many of the programs now are not effective or are outdated.

You are in charge of your child, no one else.  Unless the father lives with you and helps raise the child, then he doesn't have a damn thing to say.\n\nYOU can stop the drama.

Well,if CaCO3 + 2H20 = Ca(OH)2 + H2CO3\n\nthen the products of chalk in water are:\n\n(1) Calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2) and carbonic acid (H2CO3)\n\nThis is an exothermic reaction: it gives off heat.\n\nFurther reaction between Calcium hydroxide and the carbonic acid produces Calcium bi-carbonate (Ca(HCO3)2) and water (H2O). \n\nCa(OH)2 + 2H2CO3 = Ca(HCO3)2 + 2H2O.\n\nCalcium bicarbonate is baking powder, and it is safe, and even medicinal as an antacid.\n\nThe feasibility or otherwise of the above chemical reactions is now left to chemical thermodynamicists to confirm, while the speed or sluggishness of the reactions is for kineticists to compute.

What chemical element is the human body mostly comprised of?  Tell me how you got your answer?

The answer depends on whether you are asking for the largest contributor to the mass of the human body or the largest contributor in number of atoms to the human body.  It is common knowledge that humans are mostly composed of water (estimates may range from 70% to 80% by mass).  Since most of the mass of water (H2O)is due to the oxygen rather than the hydrogen (a ratio of about 8 lb of oxygen to every 1 lb of hydrogen) then most of the body's mass comes from oxygen.\nOf course oxygen is found in almost every other molecule in our body as well, as is hydrogen which brings us to the second possible answer.  Since there are two hydrogen atoms for every oxygen atom in water then water has twice as many hydrogen atoms as it does oxygen atoms.  It is true that we also have lots of carbon based molecules.  They are carbon based because carbon forms the main chain of the molecule, but almost every carbon in our body has a few hydrogen atoms hanging off of it.  The average is about two hydrogen atoms for every one carbon atom.  Therefore, hydrogen is by far the most abundant element in number.

between what 2 consecutive integers is the square root of 432 and how do i figure it out?

You can goto http://www.math.com 's square root calculator and figure out that it is about 20.78 so since an integer is a decimal-less number the answer would be between 20 and 21.\n\nShort of using the sqrt function of a calculator if you know that 20 squared is 400 and that is close to 43 you might then try squaring 21 and get 441 then realize 432's sqrt must be between 20 and 21.

*If* there was a Yeshua ben Nazareb (jeebus), he would have spoken Aramaic.  \n\nThe first translations of the alleged events were translated into a Greek bile - oops, bible - and that includes the pentateuch and the gnostic texts. \n\nThe fables were then translated into Latin by the early catholic crutch - oops, church - to form the Vulgate bible, but for political reasons many gnostic texts were excluded and many verses were made up and added that did not exist in the Greek version.\n\nThe German translation was motivated by politics in Germany, the King James version was motivated by politics in England, etc. etc. etc.  \n\nThe babble - oops, bible - and religion have always been the tools of political ambition.

Why do skaters always get a bad name and we don't do anything wrong?

I can't say for sure, but sometimes skaters are rude to the police when they come. I'm not saying you are rude, but you know the saying--one bad apple spoils the whole lot.  \nIf you are polite and cooperative, I think you will go a long way in being a good example for the other skaters.  Is there a skate park in your town? If not, maybe you could go to your city leaders and let them know how much one would be appreciated.  If need be, you might need to get some signatures together to show them how popular a skate park would be.  \nI hope you are helped by this answer.

Actually, a few friends of mine who are Asian *do* call themselves 'yellow,' but only as a joke, because of how everyone else gets categorized by colour.\n\nThe problem with the term 'Asian,' in turn, is that it's not usually used (at least in my experience) for people from India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, etc., even though these countries are obviously part of Asia; almost all Indians & Sri Lankans I know either call themselves *that* -- i.e. categorize themselves by specific nationality -- or, if they want to be broader, call themselves 'brown.' (For that matter, 'Asian' is usually not used for someone from Afghanistan or Iran either, for example; it's really only used for Chinese, Japanese, Koreans... etc. At least in my experience -- does anyone have a different experience of this?)\n\nBut the fact that 'yellow' isn't accurate can't be the whole story, then, since (at least as it's in fact used, i.e. too narrowly) 'Asian' isn't strictly accurate either, and 'black' and 'white' aren't particularly accurate either, since both can include a huge variety of skin tones. 'Blacks' can be super-dark, super-light, and everywhere in between; 'whites' can be rosy and pink, super-pale, or very olivey (my skin colour, for example -- I'm Caucasian, and would definitely be categorized as such -- is almost exactly the same colour as that of a friend of mine who's Chinese, and if I'm a bit tanned, it's almost the same colour as a friend from Peru, who's very racially mixed and definitely doesn't look 'white'). \n\nSo I guess what I'm saying is that it all seems highly arbitrary, all of this colour-categorizing. I'd agree with your question, then, in a way, but I'd reverse it: rather than asking why we don't call Asians 'yellow,' I'd ask why we *do* call others 'black' or 'white' or 'brown.' What's the point?


what is the correct height to position your bicycle seat?

Positioning your saddle is a tricky thing, and is surrounded by a lot of myth and misinformation, and even some black magic.\n\nIt all comes down to personal preference, your body makeup, and the kind of riding you're planning to do.\n\nBoth height, as well as the fore/aft position are important. Saddle tilt is a bit of a personal preference, though many opt for a completely level position.\n\nFore/aft positioning relies on the length of your legs and the style of your riding. Those folks with long femurs who like to push big gears tend to opt for the leverage afforded by positioning the saddle farther back on the seatpost (behind the bottom bracket - the axle the cranks are mounted to). Those with shorter femurs tend to posiiton their saddle a bit forward.\n\nHowever, it should be noted that in most cases, you should ensure that your weight is evenly distributed over the bike. Positioning the saddle too far back or forward may affect the way the bike handles (if the weight is unevenly distributed).\n\nMany folks will tell you to simply position your saddle such that when you're on the bike, your leg should be almost fully extended at the bottom of your pedal stroke. This is a very general method, and may work for most people, but might not be right for you. Listen to your body; do what's comfortable.\n\nNEVER adjust the height of your saddle drastically. Make your adjustments in very small increments over time, so that your body can slowly adapt to the changes without risking injury (knee problems being the biggest of the potential problems). 2-3 mm every 1-2 weeks is good.\n\nLastly, I would recommend finding a reputable, knowledgeable local bike shop to help you out. A good shop will have a sizing system to help you find your optimal setup.\n\nGood luck!

Would it be better for my credit score to get a home equity loan and pay off all other credit card debts?

I agree with above.  As far as your credit score, your points goes down with the amount of open accounts you have because you have the potential to fall under hard times and max out everything without paying it off. You would not only have to consolidate everything to your home equity but send a note with all final payments that you want the accounts closed completely.  Within 30 days it will begin to raise your credit score.  \n\nThe inquiry into your credit for your equity loan will make your score go down 3 points and if you have more than 3 inquires a yr into credit you're looking at 5 points per inquiry.\n\nThe interest you pay on your home equity is tax deductible and credit cards are not.

My favorite shoes are the Adidas barricade 2's. They are very comfortable and durable. I play 5-7 times a week and it takes me about 2-3 months to wear them out. Then I send them back to Adidas and get a free pair. They cost about $75 but are worth it because you get 2 pairs out of them if you wear them out in under 6 months. Definitely a good buy for juniors who play a lot.


How do I know which key harmonica to use?

Wonderful! Another Harmonica Player! wooot!!! So, when I play Harmonica I can figure out what to play where in a song. Even if the Harmonica doesn't EXACTLY match up. I can just hear it. I would suggest find out the key that the song is in, and use the harmonica that is in that key...or even a harmonica a step lower MAY work (don't quote me on that though, I'm not completely sure). I'm a little sleepy now to really give you great advice on the Harmonica. I'm guessing you are the Harmonica player and this isn't asked for a friend or relative-and I think you should know that I am happy that there is another Harmonica player out there. :)\n\nTake care.

Which wartime leader (alive or dead) would you pick to be the world leader against an alien invasion?

what makes anyone think that aliens would want to invade  our world. maybe they want to share with us how to live in an advanced and maybe peaceful world. not that we would know anything about that, and we are so ignorant to them helping us that we would probably nuke them. and no great leader would be able to defeat an alien invasion, they have more pwerful weapons than us. if they are advanced enough to have ships to travel to other worlds then they can defeat any army in this world.

There are two wild populations of mouflons still in existence: the Asiatic mouflon which is still found in the mountains of Asia Minor and southern Iran and the European mouflon of which the only existing members are on the islands of Sardinia and Corsica. These two species are closely related with the only difference being the redder coloration and different horn configuration of the Asiatic mouflon. Some sources even hypothesize that the European mouflon actually developed from the first domestic sheep in Europe being allowed to become feral and that all sheep are actually descendants of the Asiatic mouflon"\n\nIf you were serious about where do sheep come from? They come from the same place monkies do.\n\n\n(Please remember to choose the best answer after 24 hours, dont just leave the question open! Thanks)


Is an ounce of prevention really worth a pound of cure?

yes.\nPreventing crime avoids multiple kinds of cost:\n* cost for the damage the crime did\n* cost for the prosecution\n* cost for the penal system\n\nAdd these together and you will see that these costs are in most cases higher than the cost for social programs that help avoid crime.\n\nThe only little issue with prevention is:\nThe cost of prevention is one large chunk out of the public coffers. The cost of crime is payed by public (prosecution and penal system) and private money (damage).\nSince the cost of damage is normally covered by the victim or the victim's insurance people don't see this part of the cost of crime clearly. So they tend to disregard it.
