If a black hole captures light, then does a normal planet or star effect light as well?

Any mass will attract light. The effect is called a gravitational lense and has been observed (and indeed used by astronomers) around our sun.\n\nInterestingly enough, a black hole is thought to radiate "Hawking radiation" (i.e. a continuum of light).

When was the first transparent glass created?

The discovery of glass\nNatural glass has existed since the beginnings of time, formed when certain types of rocks melt as a result of high-temperature phenomena such as volcanic eruptions, lightning strikes or the impact of meteorites, and then cool and solidify rapidly. Stone-age man is believed to have used cutting tools made of obsidian (a natural glass of volcanic origin also known as hyalopsite, Iceland agate, or mountain mahogany) and tektites (naturally-formed glasses of extraterrestrial or other origin, also referred to as obsidianites).\n\nAccording to the ancient-Roman historian Pliny (AD 23-79), Phoenician merchants transporting stone actually discovered glass (or rather became aware of its existence accidentally) in the region of Syria around 5000 BC. Pliny tells how the merchants, after landing, rested cooking pots on blocks of nitrate placed by their fire. With the intense heat of the fire, the blocks eventually melted and mixed with the sand of the beach to form an opaque liquid.\n\nThis brief history looks, however, at the origins and evolution of man-made glass.\n\n5000 BC - A craft is born\nThe earliest man-made glass objects, mainly non-transparent glass beads, are thought to date back to around 3500 BC, with finds in Egypt and Eastern Mesopotamia. In the third millennium, in central Mesopotamia, the basic raw materials of glass were being used principally to produce glazes on pots and vases. The discovery may have been coincidental, with calciferous sand finding its way into an overheated kiln and combining with soda to form a coloured glaze on the ceramics. It was then, above all, Phoenician merchants and sailors who spread this new art along the coasts of the Mediterranean.\n\n3500 BC - The oldest fragments of glass vases (evidence of the origins of the hollow glass industry), however, date back to the 16th century BC and were found in Mesopotamia. Hollow glass production was also evolving around this time in Egypt, and there is evidence of other ancient glassmaking activities emerging independently in Mycenae (Greece), China and North Tyrol.\n\n16th century BC - Early hollow glass production\nAfter 1500 BC, Egyptian craftsmen are known to have begun developing a method for producing glass pots by dipping a core mould of compacted sand into molten glass and then turning the mould so that molten glass adhered to it. While still soft, the glass-covered mould could then be rolled on a slab of stone in order to smooth or decorate it. The earliest examples of Egyptian glassware are three vases bearing the name of the Pharaoh Thoutmosis III (1504-1450 BC), who brought glassmakers to Egypt as prisoners following a successful military campaign in Asia.\n\n1500 BC - There is little evidence of further evolution until the 9th century BC, when glassmaking revived in Mesopotamia. Over the following 500 years, glass production centred on Alessandria, from where it is thought to have spread to Italy.\n\n9th century BC - The first glassmaking "manual" dates back to around 650 BC. Instructions on how to make glass are contained in tablets from the library of the Assyrian king Ashurbanipal (669-626 BC).\n\n650 BC - Starting to blow\nA major breakthrough in glassmaking was the discovery of glassblowing some time between 27 BC and AD 14, attributed to Syrian craftsmen from the Sidon-Babylon area. The long thin metal tube used in the blowing process has changed very little since then. In the last century BC, the ancient Romans then began blowing glass inside moulds, greatly increasing the variety of shapes possible for hollow glass items.\n\n27 BC-AD 14 - The Roman connection\nThe Romans also did much to spread glassmaking technology. With its conquests, trade relations, road building, and effective political and economical administration, the Roman Empire created the conditions for the flourishing of glassworks across western Europe and the Mediterranean. During the reign of the emperor Augustus, glass objects be

Here are a couple of suggestions:\n1) Say in your email that it's negotiable but expand it by saying you would like to learn more about the responsibilites and duties of the prior to discussing salary.\n2) Another approach is to say that you are looking at replacing your career/position and not your salary.


Are all of the planets, stars and other debri in a state of decay that will crash and burn in the sun?

I wouldn't say they are in a state of decay, but there is a theory that says that the planets are slowly rotating towards the sun, and will eventually be burned up by it.  Like if you put a marble on a blanket with a bowling ball in the center and watched it rotate around until it hits the bowling ball.

Where do i look to see what kind of video card my pc has and how do I know how good it is?

Assuming he has windows XP, Rick click on a blank area of the desktop and select Properties from the menu. in the window that opens find the tab on the top called settings, it is the leftmost tab. In this section click the button called advanced,in the resulting window click the tab at the top called Adapter. The information is about your video card, Chip Type will tell you who made the chipset of the card and what type it is, Memory size is also listed. To know if it is sufficient for your games read the information supplied with the game, if the memory on your card is lower that whaqt the game recommends it is probably insufficient. If you cant figure it out from there write the information down and take it to your local computer shop or best buy and consult one of their representatives, typically they will be able to assist you, although they will usually attempt to sell you the most expensive high end card they have if you talk to them they will usually in the end make a reasonable recommednation on what you need.

Please give me the definition of "Ponzi".?

Sure.  A Ponzi scheme is fraudulent scheme to make money.  Essentially the scheme promises to give you back a significant return on your cash in a short amount of time, but it depends on new investors constantly joining the scheme to work.  Let's say you put $5000 into a scheme, with the promise that you'll get $6000 out of it in a month.  This works at first because people who join up early get their cash from the people who join up later.  But you're getting something from nothing, in order to get enough money in the pool to pay off the people who are due to receive their returns, you have to grow the pot exponentially, which is impossible in the real world.  Even if you could sustain that growth, eventually everyone in the world would have to be investing in order to sustain the scheme, and it would still run out of money.  \n\nIn a classic Ponzi scheme, the people who invest early DO profit, but the long term outlook is awful.

How can you tell the difference between Korean, Chinese and Japanese people?

There is an interesting website: www.alllooksame.com\n\nI have lived in Korea, China and Japan, and here is my opinion:\n\nThe Japanese have the narrowest and sharpest noses, the hairier faces and bodies. The Northern Chinese are the tallest East Asians, the Koreans follow. The Southern Chinese are short. The Southern Chinese have rounder features and bigger nostrils and flatter nose bridges. The Northern Chinese have sharper features, but not as sharp as the Japanese. The Koreans are like a hybrid population of the Chinese and the Japanese. In general, the Koreans tend to have flatter faces, but this is typical in Northern China, particularly Manchuria. Beware because Koreans lead the world in cosmetic surgery per capita. \n\nThe Japanese and Korean languages are pretty related, they belong to the same language family, the Altaic. For the record, they are closely more related to Turkic than to Mandarin. \n\nThe Koreans eat the most beef.\n\nThe Japanese eat the most seafood, particularly raw seafood.\n\nThe Chinese eat the most vegetables and pork! But the Okinawans eat more Pork.

what do you do if you forgot your bios password?

if you have a laptop it is a bit more involved. there is still a motherboard battery that is separate than the main power battery. bios can be purged in much the same way as described above by removing the battery, however you will need to gain access to the motherboard. you will need to go the the computers manufacturer and request a "Tear-down Guide" for your model of computer, open up the laptop in the manner described and than you may remove the battery. now unless you have done this before, powering up the system can be difficult. my recommendation is with both the motherboard battery and the main battery disconnected try to find the power button and press it. this should drain residual power from the board and erase bios. put it back together and you should be good to go. \n\nif this procedure makes you nervous please contact your local computer tech and have him do it.

Why people make sex instead of love,where are those values?

Feelings or emotions are not foremost in "sex." To have sex is to seriously just go for the animal instinct of pleasure.\nTo feel good........to break free and let loose and go with the feeling at hand without regard for any feelings or consequence. With love making.......the feeling is so intense BECAUSE of the emotions involved. It feels good because of what it means between the two people involved. It isn't just an act of passion.....but passion in the act.

i have a picture and a poem  i want to market  the product globaly where do i start?

Self-publishing could be a good option. Check out the sources for some sites. There's also plenty of books on the subject -- check out Amazon or even your local library.\n\nAlso, be sure to copyright your work. You can do this at the US Copyright Office. Go to the 5th link in the source box for Literary Works. The application is fairly simple & the cost is $30 per application.\n\nIf you are selling any products in connection with your works(e.g. toys, clothing, etc.), it is strongly advised that comprehensive research be conducted to ensure that the name you're interested in is truly available. \n\nThis entails searching the pending & registered Federal and State trademark files as well as the US National Common-Law files. Then, if clear, you can decide if you would like to file for a Federal or a State trademark. \n\nResearch is needed to make sure your trade name is legally available, before opening, before expansion, before incorporation or before designing your logo. Similarities in sound, appearance and meaning affect you too!\n\nThere are 16+ million trade names in use in the United States. Similar names matter, if close in sound, appearance or meaning. Similar names in related classes, distribution channels and customer matter too. You are affected by Common Law use (14 million), State Trademarks (500,000) and Federal Trademarks (2 million).


I got a  girl i love how can i find out if she loves  me?

Are you going out?  If you are, watch what she does for you?  Does she help you get your coat when you leave her place?  Does she do little things for you?  Call to say she misses you?\n\nSome girls are sensitive to a guy telling her he is in love with her.  Find out if she is in love first, if not work to get there.  If you say, that you are in love with her and she is not, then she might get scared and end the relationship.\n\nGood luck.  Peace.

What should I do if I have second thoughts about getting married?

There are two kinds of love: "in love" and real love.  "In love" is actually physiological in nature, and it goes away somewhere between six months and two and a half years.  You have this time to turn "in love" into real love.  It sounds like you've lost the "in love" without building a strong enough relationship to create a true love. \n\nOTOH, it's not that unusual to have doubts when the relationship reaches a new phase, and planning a wedding is certainly a new phase.\n\nSince you have over a year to plan the wedding, I suggest that you continue with planning where you can without committing money.  This way you won't be putting "I've already spent a thousand dollars how can I cancel it now?!" pressure on yourself.  With some breathing room on that front, it's time to do some serious talking and working with your SO.\n\nIt's going to be very scary to do this.  It will upset your SO, and people don't usually get upset in constructive ways.  And that's going to make it even harder to determine if you have a chance at a good relationship in the future.  \n\nI have three things I've learned from personal experience that indicate whether you're in a good relationship.\n\n1.  A relationship should make your life richer, not poorer.  You shouldn't find yourself limited by your SO.\n2.  You should be each other's cheerleaders, and you should always expect to be treated the way he treats you (and vice versa).\n3.  The test of a good relationship is not how it goes in the good times.  A truly good relationship will become stronger when there are conflicts, while a poor relationship will get battered.  \n\nI must recommend therapy as well.  Our culture teaches very poor relationship skills and a therapist will help you overcome any bad training that you've received.  \n\nAnd remember - it may seem hard to break off an engagement, but it is 10x harder to end a marriage.


Are any of you Agoraphobic or have severe anxiety disorder/panic attacks?

i personally have panic disorder. i've been told...get help from a mental health professional first and possibly medication. i've tried the medication, but i'm not one for pills. and honestly, talking to someone...doesn't make it go away! i've had to teach myself relaxation techniques. first and foremost, i repeat to myself over and over, "i'm okay, i'm fine, i'm not hurt, and this too shall pass". but it has affected me in everyday life, even when i'm not having an attack. truly it is all about your mind set. changing your way of thinking, and that can be the hardest part. i haven't found a concrete solution, i just take it day by day.

How much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?


Why do CSIs on tv use flashlights instead of turning on the lights at a crime scene?

first. hollywood, dramatic effect\nsecond, cops use flashlights so that if there is a burgalor and he is trying to catch the cops or hurt them (or something of that sort) then they use flashlights because the robber would see a bright light in a dark place, so it would be nearly impossible to hit the cop. (In real life, cops use a flashlight that blinks so the robber would see a light and then itd go away and he wouldnt know where to shoot. [think of a firefly])\nCSI .. some good stuff. ..

Can I get pregnant while I'm taking the placebo pills of my birth control pill?

The official answer is no, because according to what OBGYNs and other healthcare professionals have been taught you ovulate in the middle of your cycle. However this is not always accurate. Some women, myself included ovulate, at different times than that or even more than once a month. Their are conflicting viewpoints on this but this is one of the primary reasons some women do get pregnant while using that kind of birth control pill. You can find out when you ovulate. There are several methods to do this that you can find online. Or if this is a concern you can go back and talk to your healthcare provider about taking a different kind of pill that does not use a placebo or a different form of birth control. \n I am the mother of four children and have been pregnant six times. I have gotten pregnant before on birthcontrol pills for this reason, which is not all that uncommon. The statistics do not accurately represent these failures because the medical community tends to blame the failure on the woman taking the pills must have forgotten to take them. I am also a trained doula, certified breastfeeding educator and student midwife.

what are the long terms effect of consuming marijuana everyday? Does it have any high BP (hypertension) link?

There is some evidence from human studies that long-term marijuana use\ncan have adverse effects, although it seems that the spectrum of these\neffects is narrower than previously thought and mainly centres around\ncognitive (intellectual) function.\n\nA paper in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) vol.\n287 No. 9, March 6, 2002, pp. 1123-1131) found that long-term cannabis\nusers performed less well than shorter-term users and controls (people\nwho didn’t use cannabis) in tests of memory and attention.  The\nlong-term users averaged 23.9 years of use, compared with 10.2 years\nin the shorter-term users. You can find an abstract at the American\nMedical Association web site: \nhttp://jama.ama-assn.org/issues/v287n9/abs/joc11416.html , but access\nto the full text requires subscription to the journal.  Note that the\ncomments associated with the article (links to them are underneath the\nabstract) indicate that some other investigators do not agree with\nthis conclusion.\n\nAnother study published in a Canadian medical journal (CMAJ 2002 Apr\n2;166(7):887-91 http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&db=PubMed&list_uids=11949984&dopt=Abstract)\nfound that: “Current marijuana use had a negative effect on global IQ\nscore only in subjects who smoked 5 or more joints per week. A\nnegative effect was not observed among subjects who had previously\nbeen heavy users but were no longer using the substance. We conclude\nthat marijuana does not have a long-term negative impact on global\nintelligence.”  This study compared IQ scores of individuals aged 9-12\nyears before they started using cannabis, with their scores at 17-20\nyears.  Light users, former users and non-users showed a gain in IQ\nover the same period.\n\nOne reason for the decreased IQ and memory in consistent heavy users\ncould be the fact that long-term cannabis use has been found to\ndecrease blood flow to the front areas of the brain (Neurotoxicology\nand Teratology 2001 Sep-Oct; vol 23 pp. 437-43  Frontal lobe\ndysfunction in long-term cannabis users by  Lundqvist T, Jonsson S,\nWarkentin S. of the Division of Medical Neurochemistry, Lund\nUniversity Hospital, 221 85, Lund, Sweden  \nhttp://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&db=PubMed&list_uids=11711246&dopt=Abstract\n\nA study published in Public Health and Nutrition, June 2001, vol. 4\npp. 781-786 (Dietary intake and nutritional status of US adult\nmarijuana users: results from the Third National Health and Nutrition\nExamination Survey. By Smit E, Crespo CJ. of the Department of Social\nand Preventive Medicine, SUNY School of Medicine, University at\nBuffalo, Buffalo, NY 14214, USA.\nhttp://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&db=PubMed&list_uids=11415485&dopt=Abstract\n) found that marijuana users have lower levels of carotenoids in the\nserum.  The authors concluded this was associated with different\ndietary habits: “We found higher cigarette-smoking rates and higher\nconsumption of sodas and alcohol, specifically beer, among marijuana\nusers than among non-current marijuana users. Marijuana users also\nconsumed more sodium, fewer fruits, and more pork, cheese, and salty\nsnacks.”  Carotenoids are important anti-oxidants which help to\nprevent cancer and other diseases.  An increased risk of these\ndiseases might be due not so much to marijuana use itself as to the\nlifestyle led by many who use it.  Better attention to nutrition, in\norder to ensure a good intake of fresh fruit and vegetables,\nparticularly the red, yellow and orange ones, will help to boost\nantioxidant status (see below)\n\nA review of various studies came to the conclusion that: “Regular\nmarijuana use can lead to extensive airway injury and alterations in\nthe structure and function of alveolar macrophages, potentially\npredisposing to pulmonary infection and respiratory cancer.”  Alveolar\nmacrophages are cells in the lungs that help clear away debris and\nba

What's the best thing to gift to a woman who you are in love with ?

jewlery,nothing says I love you like a necklace,ring or bracelet.\nexcept I love you of course.


I met the Lord through my older brother...I was going to commit suicide (my brother did not know this) he asked me if I wanted to go, I said I was not dressed, he said he would wait, I could not think of any other excuse, so I went to Church..\n\nI called the Pastor a Jesus Freak and I told him that he was crazy to believe in God and Jesus and the Bible was written by man not God..little did I know that our Lord, had other plans for me..\n\nThe following week I went back to Church to condemn them once more, but before I could say anything, the Pastor asked who would like to be baptized, without even realizing it, my hand went straight up into the air..I was baptized and asked Jesus into my heart that very afternoon on August 28, 1978..\n\nI was immediately delivered from drugs, swearing, and hatred for those that had done me wrong..Our Heavenly Father bestowed down upon me His Holy Spirit, which cleansed my heart from all unrightousness..Our Heavenly Father, who forgave my past sins, placed within my heart His Glorious and wonderful Love, His Joy unspeakable and His Peace that Passeth all Understanding..\n\nI can go unto my Lord in prayer, when satan comes to attack..for Greater is He Who is in me..that he who is in the world.. \n\nMy Faith means EVERYTHING to me..The Lord is my helper and my provider..He will always be there for me..when no one else is...For He will never leave me nor forsake me..Amen\n\nLet this my prayer be, More and More of Thee and less and less of me..Amen \n\nLet His Will be done..not mine...Amen


where can i register for US Green card ?

there is no lottery !!\n\nA United States Permanent Resident Card, also known popularly as Green Card, is an identification card for a permanent resident of the United States of America who does not have U.S. citizenship. It is proof that the holder has permission to permanently reside and take employment in the U.S. Its "former" official title was Alien Registration Receipt Card, and it is now officially called a Permanent Resident Card, also referred to as form I-551.\n\nThe name "green card" comes from the fact that the cards were originally green. Their color has changed over the years, but the term "green card" has remained in use. As of 2005, the card is mostly white and the only prominent green feature is the lettering on the back of the card. A card includes the holder's name and photograph, and other information, and has been updated over the years with numerous anti-counterfeiting devices. The latest hologram on the back of the card contains representations of all American presidents, flags of each state, image of the card holder and other personal information found on the front of the card.\n\nThe card must be in the possession of the U.S. permanent resident at all times. This means the U.S. permanent resident must have a currently valid card on their person at all times, to show to an USCIS officer, if requested. One interesting aspect of American law is that permanent residents are required to carry identification cards, but citizens are not.\n\nGreen cards were formerly issued by the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS). That agency's functions have been shifted to the new U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) formerly the Bureau of Citizenship and Immigration Services (BCIS) in the Department of Homeland Security.

my girl friend went to a x-mas party came back and said its not working what should i do?

If your girlfriend went to a christmas party and then came back and said that its not working out ask her why.  If she says its just not then let it end at that.  The less you annoy her the more you will get along.  Trust me, I dated a guy and he did the same thing to me.  I learned that the less you keep on asking why the more they dont want to tell you.  Just ask her once why and if she doesnt say then leave it alone.  She will eventually come crawlin back to you if you are/were good to her.


Love is not appearing suddenly in our life. It is there from our brith. When you born in this world you love everything in this world. At age 5 you are in love with the toys and barbie dolls, at age 10 you are in love with chocklets and others. \n\nWhen you are at 15 you get love with opposite sex and when at 20 you get love with your beloved. after you give brith to a child you love it. \n\nLike this love is always in us. Only because of love we are doing our activities. But during our teens and youth we get in love with our opposite sex a lot which is generally meant by word love. It shows a lot of differences in us.

what do you do when a crazy ex is turning a lot of people against you and making your life miserable?

totally ignore him. pay him no attention. he'll eventually get tired of everything he is doing right now.this ex bf of yours might be an egoistic one that's why he is telling other people lies about you but if you know yourself that you're not the person he is talking about, i mean you know that what he says is not true you should not get affected. good luck.


"Mashita" is not a word, it is a suffix added to a verb that makes the verb past tense. It serves the same function as adding "-ed" to the end of a verb in English. For example, the verb "to eat" is tabemasu - if you change the verb ending to "tabemashita", it now means "ate".

10:10 became the standard in advertising photography for watches with hands and the tradition continues.  The hands in this position are well separated and clear to see.  Both are pointing upwards which is thought to be more appealing than the opposing position of 8:20.  As a side note, photographers will often times break the crystal on a watch to get a clearer image of the hands and face, without the interference of the glass.


Sometimes you just really have to remind yourself of a reason why things ended. I believe in destiny...perhaps..one person is taken out to make room for a new prince charming who was going to enter your life. Also, this new guy might just be the substitute that isnt hitting the spot. Perhaps, what you need is mystery, compassion, surprise, intrigue. Try a nice warm trendy coffee shop..or think of a place you love being...chances are you will bump into your Prince there, and soon the ache of the lost one will leave you. best of luck, sweet one.


How has No Child Left Behind impacted your school?

What advice would you pass on to someone just about to start grad school?

Make sure that your values dictate how you spend your time.  I know that when I started grad school, I wanted to please my professors and eventually I said "yes" to so many responsibilities that I got overwhelmed.  This is a disservice to them and yourself because you won't be able to do your work well if you don't have as much time to spend on any one thing.  So, my advice is, choose carefully about what projects and what activities you want to spend your time on.  This means: don't take too many classes in one term, don't take on too much teaching/TA/RA responsibility.\n\nI would include that you shouldn't put your life on hold for graduate school.  When I started grad school my attitude was "I'll just sacrifice these two years of my life and focus only on school and then pick things up when I finish."  I've found that I'm much happier when I continue non-school activities that are important to me while I continue to pursue my graduate studies.  If you look to your professors for advice on this, they might share the attitude that "everyone just gives up their life and happiness for a while to be a graduate student; that's the way it should be".  But I don't agree.\n\nUltimately, pushing yourself too hard and giving up things that you love can lead to poor health and feeling miserable.  Keeping school in its proper place and perspective is really helping me.  For example, I've decided that, for the rest of my grad school career, I will only teach one class per term, even though they want me to teach three classes a year.  I think it'll help me to make sure that I have time to focus on other things in addition to school.

Why are all races (human and horse) run counter-clockwise, rather than clockwise?

My guess is so the finish goes from left to right from the crowds view.  Humans tend to interact with things better when they move across you field of view from left to right.  You see it all over: races, movies, TV commercial, etc.\n\nMaybe is has something to do with how the brain processes images.

Coffee is bad for you not because of the caffeine in it, but because of a chemical known as tannic acid. tannic acid is used to mold tough leather, so think about what it could do to your body.

Is the stockholm syndrome applicable to 9-11?

Stockholm syndrome takes place over time and applies to hostages. The only hostages were in the planes, and they neither had the time to develop this, nor the view that their well being depended on the hijackers. A good part of this syndrome stems from the hostage taker being the provider of food and privileges and the time span from takeover to crash was too short for them to have been seen as anything but a threat.


I am going to lean towards Obi Wan because if he can deflect lasers with his lightsaber, then I'm pretty sure anything Batman throws at him won't be a problem for him to deal with.  Also, Batman would have a hard time doing any of that martial arts stuff on Obi Wan because as soon as he got close to him, Obi Wan would just filet him.

1.  If you are having problems in your current relationship that you just run away from, they will come back on you.  Get counseling before you do something irrevocable.\n2.  It's not fair to your husband to dissolve your relationship without giving him a chance to make it work better.  \n3.  If you really feel that you should be single, price out how much it will be to leave your husband.  Can you get a place to stay that is safe and affordable?  Will your husband be able to stay where you live or are you going to force him to leave his home?  \n4. If you leave, do you have any single friends?  How are you going to meet these mythical lovers?  Are you being realistic in your expectations or are you daydreaming about finding the perfect lover?\n5. You say you want "freedom".  What kind of freedom are you looking for, and could you possibly find it within your marriage?  And if you can't get it within your marriage, why do you think you can get it outside of your marriage?\n\nWhatever you do, I recommend a book called "Recovering Love", by J. Richard Cookerly.  Ignore the subtitles, the book is really about what really makes marriages work.  It will help you and your husband rebuild your relationship if you choose that path, and it will help you choose future lovers better if that's the path you choose.


The Hittite empire lasted from 1900-1200 BC. What was its capital?

After the Hittites came to power, they took control of much of Anatolia and their first kingdom was in an area called Nesa, near Kultepe. The first capital of the Hittite Empire was at a place called Kushshar or Kussara, which has not yet been located. The earliest king mentioned in the royal archives of Hattusas was King Anittas, who began the policy of expansion. He took the area called Nesa, then Hattusas. He then made the old city of Boghazkoy the capital, and the name was changed to Hattusas. Later, for reasons not made clear, this king Anittas transferred the government to Kultepe, near Kayseri, and Hattusas was declared accursed and destroyed.


Weight is NOT converted into energy, unless you have a nuclear reactor in your gut.\n\nCarbohydrates and fats are converted into carbon dioxide and water when oxygen "burns" the energy source.  The CO2 you breathe out is heavier than the O2 you breathe in (by one carbon atom per molecule), and this represents some weight lost.  This is effectively the same as when heavy wood becomes light ash after the burning process turns much of the carbon which makes up the mass into CO2, and water in the wood evaporates away.  The water is lost through breathing, sweating, and urinating/defacating.  Some of the lost weight also becomes metabolites that are excreted from the body.

why was my question about god removed as profanity when i used no profane words?

if I hang out with a girl that this guy i like doesn't like, then will the guy not like me?

Friends should always come before guys because friends last longer.  If he cant respect you for your opinions on who you want to hang out with then it isnt worth liking him.  Dont let other people tell you who to hang out with and who not to.  When you start thinking for yourself you will find out that you will be a lot happier and more confident and sometimes that will even lead to more popularity. Dont follow the crowd, do what you want to do!

which lenders offer the most competitive zero down mortgages for physicians?

The first answer is good, but too confusing.  Everything depends on YOUR score and how much MONEY you are willing to spend. BUYER BEWARE !!!Promises are made to be broken.  You should get a FREE pre-approval from a Mortgage Broker.  There are literally hundreds of lenders that provide zero down financing so you won't have trouble finding someone to get you approved.  Since you are a physician, get the following stuff ready for the loan officer.  If you have a practice, you will need at least 12 months worth of your BUSINESS bank statements and 2-years of business licenses.  If you work as part of a staff, you will need to prove that you now have a job and that you graduated and are working in the field of your major.  Don't get too bogged down on "Competitive"...there's no such thing as a free lunch.  Trust me, you want to pay your own closing costs because that means a lower interest rate. In most cases, the seller should pay ALL of your closing costs for YOU, make sure you ask!  Another caveat, zero down means no PMI, but the interest rate (APR) is usually 1.5% higher than those advertised > 6% even with credit scores in the high 600s and 700s.  But look at the bright side, the interest is tax deductible....Private Mortgage Insurance isn't.  Good Luck!!!

my husband don't want to have sex with me anymore?

Is he depressed, stressed or something else?  Will he see a doctor.\n\nA healthy man will usually have a healthy sex life.  I think you should be honest and tell him this is destroying your love for him and you would like him to address the issue.  \n\nIf he doesn't know how, then suggest that he start with the source of being tired.\n\nOne other thing that popped into my head.  Does he just say that to avoid a long conversation.  Perhaps he doesn't feel "safe" talking about what he really feels and thinks because he is judged or criticized.


If liberals hate america so much why don't they all just leave?

i want to name my new insurance company?

If you are a locally based company, consider a locally focused name, like after a popular local sports team, famous person, monument or park. A promise of service, value or price can also be good. Like Today's Insurance, Fast Quote, Affordable Insurance, All Options Insurance, Custom Insurance, or Insurance Trust. I still thinks names of people or towns work best for insurance. If the owner is willing, he or she should be the face and name of the agency.\n\nContact me with more info and I would be happy to help at no charge. Good luck, joetheadguy@aol.com

Is it true that the original Coca-Cola formula had cocaine in it?

Yes its TRUE.\n\nCoca-Cola was named back in 1885 for its two "medicinal" ingredients: extract of coca leaves and kola nuts. Just how much cocaine was originally in the It's all gone now, folks. formulation is hard to determine, but the drink undeniably contained some cocaine in its early days. Frederick Allen describes the public attitude towards cocaine that existed as Coca-Cola's developers worked on perfecting their formula in 1891:


Do you think any of the web accelerator programs really work?

Short answer: Yes they do.\n\nWeb Acceleration typically works by putting a stub 'codec' on your machine matched with its counterpart on a proxy server. All your web traffic (other than https - secure traffic) passes through the proxy server. The codec on your machine compresses before transmission, and decompresses all received traffic.\n\nOn high speed connections, the overhead of coding and decoding is comparable to the saving in transmission time and therefore 'acceleration' is not noticable. On dialup connections the time saving can be significant.\n\nNote: the accelerator proxy can easily profile your browsing habits - check the privacy policy before committing to acceleration.\n\nGood luck!


what is our purpose in this world? and where we go after the death?

Think of life as a game of football. While playing, you get so engrossed that you forget all about your life. We are souls having a human experience and have forgotten about who we actually are because we are engrossed in our lives.\nIf you cheat in a game of football, you get punished and if you score well then you get rewarded. This is like the 'law of karma'. If you hurt someone, it comes back to you, maybe from someone else. If you do good, then good comes back to you.\nWe are here to learn. All events are meant to teach us something, we have to rise above 'good experiences' and 'bad experiences' and take them neutrally as 'experiences'. Even our enemies are helping us face and do away with our fears. At a higher level, they love us.\nAfter death we pass into the 'astral plane' which vibrates at a higher rate than the physical plane. We are born again and again till our physical desires (taste,sight,etc.) keep attracting us back to the physical plane.\nYou might want to read "Many Lives, Many Masters' by 'Brian L.Weiss'.\nhttp://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0671657860/002-7594155-3031224?v=glance&n=283155

where can I get a DVD on Hsing-I kung Fu like an Instructional DVD?

Search for Hsing-I online. For example, www.hsing-i.com actually has some videos. Hsing-I isn't really a style you can pick up from watching a video though... \nAlso, the style has many variations and lineages as well as names in English.

In what computer language would an Operating System be written in?

Building an operating system would require 2 languages.\n\nASM (Assembly) - For creating the basic input/output routines, read data, communicating with hardare\n\nC/C++ - For making use of the libraries coded in ASM to create an interactive operating system, with a UI and what not.\n\nIt is possible for an OS to be coded in pure ASM -- but the fact of the matter is it's ASM isn't really made for that - just the basics.  C/C++ are the real power horses, after they make use of the libraries made in ASM.

why isn't soccer more popular in the US?

Actually, soccer was much more popular in the early 20th century than it is now. But I think your question should be "why isn't professional soccer more popular in the US?".\n\nHere is a quote from Soccer Times about recent US soccer participation:\n\n"According to the Sporting Goods Manufacturers of America International 2003 Superstudy of Sports Participation, 17.641 million Americans played soccer at least once in 2002, a 7.4 percent decrease from the 19.042 million in 2001. Still, the number of players in 2002 represented a 14.6 percent increase from the 1987 benchmark of 15.388 million."\n\nThe article goes on to further claim that soccer only trails basketball in overall popularity for team sport participation.\n\nI've heard many reasons why people don't follow pro soccer: lack of scoring, diversity of professional sports offerings and lack of television programming.

Should I quit my job? I hate it. I will have 30 years in next year.?

I don't know the details because you didn't supply them ... but here's an answer:  Suppose you are on your death bed (and I wish you that it happens a long long time from now) ... what would make you unhappy with your decision?  What will make you content?  What would you have liked to do differently?  I know it seems cliched -- but seriously, try to imagine looking back in retrospect -- it really helps clarify things.  The view you will have on your deathbed will take your entire life into consideration -- and that's how it would be best to base your decisions.  On your deathbed, if staying the extra year earns you a higher pension, you may think that overall it was worth it.  But if there was no pension at stake, and you missed out on love, life, or adventure -- well then, you may regret that you spent the year at work rather than living the best of the one life you have to live.  Good luck!

should yahoo have seperate age catagories? so that adults can get answers from adults.?

LOL......well you do get the occasional wacko answer for sure. But for the most part its not too hard to just graze over the "babble" to find the "meat." I do understand your question though. Without any criticism to those on here that I know are much younger than myself, but I have a feeling they probably don't enjoy my questions any more than I can relate to some of the questions they ask. You are probably onto something. Having age categories might help us all weed through to find the type of questions we feel we can appropriately answer. I like it! Hopefully someone will read your question and take some action. Yay for you!

I think, with your requirements, you should go for a dell or, if you want a really good one, get IBM.  Windows is much more compatible than mac.  You'd be giving up quite a bit if you decided to get a mac.  The mac has good graphics and speed in all, but in the long run, the Dell is best for you.

how to break up with your boyfriend because he chose his friends over me?

Tell him how you feel, and ask him why he feels the need to treat you the way he does when Ryan is in the picture.  Tell him that you deserve better treatment, and that since he apparantly does not feel the same way, it is time for the two of you to go seperate ways.


The answer is yes. But I would say it is not thing about believing, it is more about seeing.


Why do you think could be the reasons because the sun can not be our god anymore?

It's our fault that the Sun can no longer serve as a God.\n\nBack when the Sun was worshipped as a deity, it fit all of the descriptions of God. It was benevolent (i.e. provided warmth, and light) and yet far away and mysterious. When it was gone, bad things happened (i.e. night and storms) and when it came back, it was cause for celebration.\n\nNow, however, Man has defeated the only foe which keeps a god a God and which keeps a belief a Faith. Mystery. We know now exactly what the Sun is, and why its there, and why it does what it does. Why it comes and why it goes no longer has anything to do with sacrifices or sins, but gravity and weather. We know it now, and understand what it is going to do, and our knowledge of it has removed it from contension as a god, and has demoted it to a mere drop of hydrogen, burning away harmlessly in an enormous and mysterious cosmos, which the scientists are worshipping on there own.\n\nFor now.

There's a chamber filled with several pencil leads, along with a little funnel with a hole at the end. What ends up happening is that a lead gets into the hole and falls through (Graphite is a very good lubricant). Whenever you click the eraser, or a button on the side, it hits a spring that pushes the lead forward just a little bit. Another type of mechanical pencil allows you to spin the tip to get more lead out, but that one simply works like a screw.

what should i buy my boyfriend for christmas?


if i have software for a mini digital camera that is smaller than most discs, will my cd rom drive eat it?

Relax.  When you open the tray you will see that there is a smaller 'inset' to accommodate the mini-CD.  It will rest inside this recess.  When you eject the disk, it will still be there.  \nWARNING; do not use mini-CDs in frontloading car stereos!


Cache memory is a much faster access memory than main memory.  Main memory can take 7 to 20 clock cycles before it returns information requested by the CPU.  Cache can return sometimes within the same clock cycle.\n\nL1 cache is the cache located physically on the CPU chip, so it's very close, very fast and usually very small too.  But provides a performance boost as it allows small program routines quick access to small amounts of data.  \n\nL2 is usally "very near" the CPU and still faster than main memory, but might not be as fast as L1.  Usually is much bigger than L1 cache though.\n\nSo, why not make the whole memory cache?  Cache memory is usually high performance and very expensive.  I believe if you were to equip a computer with the equivilant of L1 cache at say 1 Gigabyte, you'd spend roughly $5000 on memory alone.  Not worth it.  But the speedup makes for a faster computer.  So Intel and AMD include small caches to make programs work more efficiently.  Compilers that setup programs are also aware of these caches and compile the programs to take advantage of the smaller quicker memory space whenever possible.\n\nConsider this scenario.  Typing an answer here on Yahoo Answers.  The typing routine is small, say only 2K in size.  You've got 128K of cache.  So the typing routine can sit and operate totally out of cache making it very effecient.  Games use this a lot too.  Their main routines are small and exact so they just "sit and spin" in the cache memory so as to go faster.  Good game programers know that which helps them create better games.\n\nHope that helps you understand.


How do I tell my boss that I'm overworked without him thinking of replacing me?

Frankly? Drop hints and such to the HR director, or to some other responsible person aside from your boss, that you want to hire an intern.  Someone to work along side of you, and help you manage your work time more efficently.\n\nChances are, they'll allow this, as it will give you more time to do your primary job.\n\nIf that doesn't work, simply tell your bos what exactly you are doing, as in working with, how many hours you spend on the job, and how much money you make.  Calculate your overtime, and compare it to his records.  If he isn't paying you properly for your overtime, state that as a fact and prove it with numbers.\n\nChances are he'll hire someone else, or make someone else pickup the tension :)\n\nMost bosses are simply too busy to notice the nominal employee, it is your place to let your supervisor or responsible person know that you are overworked.


What are the branches of city government's, and how do each of them work?

The structure of a city government varies widely depending on the size and makeup of the city. Most have a city commission or council, which is headed by the mayor. They make most of the decisions concerning the city. There are then several departments that carry out the city's laws, including police (though many cities rely on county sheriffs), fire departments, building inspections and permits, licensing of various sorts, public schools, parks and recreation, etc.

You can include URLs to your online portfolio or actual work examples (maybe even miniature screenshots) in the cover letter to draw interest and curiosity.

Why Aren't the "Culture of Life" Republicans Protesting this Abuse of Power?

(pause here for deeply bitter laugh)...What an excellent question! Let's see, this is a poor woman? An immigrant? Not a middle class white woman?A woman whose family is not being torn to shreds over an agonizing decision about which they don't agree? This isn't an election year? The Shrub is in enough hot water with the public without having this situation getting the same headlines that Schiavo's case garnered? In any case, while I agree whole heartedly with your implication that the "Culture of Life" folks are a bunch of politically motivated hypocrites, I find that I am a little grateful that this lady was permitted to die without being at the center of a terrible storm of public controversy played out among people who don't even know her.Cold comfort, but it's all I have some days. I'm very grateful she had family with her, shame that compassion moved no one to wait for her mother.


Clouds aren't just random droplets of water. What they are is tiny droplets of water that have condensed from water vapor in areas where the conditions (temperature, air pressure and humidity) are exactly right. Anywhere where you have the correct combination of these conditions, you'll get a cloud. Anywhere that you don't, you don't.\n\nAreas with this kind of conditions don't occur in random tiny places. Instead, there will be a large area of one condition that gradually shifts into another. (If this doesn't make sense, think of just temperature. You don't get a different temperature at every spot on the globe. Instead, you get a large area of warm air that gradually shifts into a large area of cooler air. The same is true for air pressure and humidity.) This is why you get a large area of 'cloud' in one place and nothing at all in another. You can think of clouds as being physical maps of the weather conditions in the sky.\n\nThis is also what holds the clouds up. In general, if a cloud is high up in the sky, the conditions just below it aren't right for the cloud to form. As the water droplets fall, they reach areas with the wrong temperature or pressure and evaporate again. Only if the clouds become densely packed enough for the water to form large enough droplets can the droplets fall to the ground. Not all clouds form high up, either... sometimes the right conditions can occur at groundlevel, giving us fog.


There are two approaches to creating anti-spyware software.\n\nOne is to guard the likely points in the system where spyware might take hold. This might be auto-run locations (such as in the registry), application add-on locations, etc. It is up to the software's creator to determine what all of the attack vectors are and then police them or guard them. The actual guarding would probably be done by polling on an interval, or by placing a system-wide hook of some sort. Both methods involve a performance hit, so it's a design tradeoff that the software engineer has to make.\n\nMethod two is to build a massive database of signatures of spyware software, then run a periodic scan of the system looking for binaries that match one of the signatures. This requires constantly updating the signature database, and will not help protect against custom or never before seen spyware.\n\n"Without any knowledge of programming" there is no way you can create your own antispyware software. This is an advanced task which will require people with advanced programming skills, and knowledge of the OS design, computer security, and if you're doing signature scans, then disassemblers and reverse-engineering skills.

Where do you think was the Atlantis, if it existed?

The greek philosopher Plato was the first to describe Atlantis (Timaios and Kritias). According to Plato, it disappeared about 9.000 years before him. Strangely enough there are no other sources to confirm that, so most probably, Plato invented the story himself, maybe inspired by a natural disaster, like the explosion of the volcano Thera 1.500 b.c.\nDonnelly revitalised the story in a book from 1882. And later Madame Blavatsky.\nOceanologists have not found any profe of Atlantis, though they know the oceans quite well. So how interesting the story about Atlantis is, most probably it is just another good story!

Which OS is the smoothest Windows98, XP professional, XP media centre or any other?


Quite possibly.  I watched it but thought it was pretty bad until Manny Coto started to liven it up in the 3rd season.  I think they tried to do something new with Trek by making it more of a soap opera to broaden the audience but what ended up happening was the diehard trek fans were alienated, and no one new was watching either.  Who wants a prequel series?  The problem with a prequel is that you have a pretty good idea about what can't happen.  For instance, you know the Federation is going to appear, that earth is not destroyed, etc.

What is American table service, Russian table service, and french table service?

If you are referring to serving styles at a banquet or other food service event:\n\nFrench Service\nFrench Style is when the food is plattered tableside. The platters are presented to the guests and the guests pass and serve themselves. This requires more space and service can be slow.\n  \nRussian Service\nWaiters serve wedding guests individually from a silver platter. Each course is served to each guest individually.\n  \nAmerican Service.\nCompleting one table at a time, waiters carry the food, which is already plated in the kitchen. \n\nNote, however, that there are some differences in what people consider to be French and Russian service. Some notion that Russian service is derivative of French style service.\n\nIf you are using this to plan a banquet just make sure that the caterer explains what he or she considers each service style to be.

How can my skimming and scanning skill be improved? =)?

You actually have to practice this to become better at it.  Read for 30 seconds.  Then explain what you read.  Then read for 45 seconds...and explain what you read.  Then for 1 minute...explain.  Take one page of whatever you are studying, spend one minute on a page, then explain it.  Practice doing that for a while, and you will become better at it.  You will have to check yourself by going back through and actually reading it to see what it says.

Casio makes a CD printer (CD-75) that prints directly to a CD (no label required).  There are two versions - one works via USB only, the other works over USB and has a built-in keyboard.  I believe you can only print one color at-a-time even though several different colors are available.


what do you do if u r stuck on a guy that u dated that treated u like GOLD and still wants to talk to you?

I would treat him better than his girl and sex him till he wants it every day


Let's try to anser the question without looking it up and without using a calculator.\n\nWe know Newton's gravitation law: F = G*m*M/r^2\nAnd we know the gravity on earth: F = m*g\n==> m*g = G*m*M/r^2\n==> M = r^2*g/G\nNow, the acceleration on the earth surface is approximately 10 m/s^2\nThe earth's radius is approximately 6*10^6 m\nAnd I remember G to be approximately 7*10^-11 Nm^2/kg^2\n\nM = 6^2*10/7 * 10^12/10^-11 kg\n\nThe earth weights about 5*10^24 kg\n\nIf you look it up in Wikipedia, it says 5,9736*10^24 kg. \n\nSo we're close enough if you take into account that we used rough estimates for the constants.


There really is no Black or White answer to this question.  Even though, I am sure there are many "rich" people in the world who are nice, I've seen many more who are not so much.  In my experience, money has a tendency to change people, even when that person has the best intentions at heart.  Although I would love to have more money, I would never wish to be "rich", only comfortable enough to be able to support myself, with no loose ends.  I may be going agains the grain, here with my answer, but I think I lean more towards "poor".  Those who are poor, or live from paycheck to paycheck, tend to appreciate the small things as we all should.  "Poor" people do not care about having extravagant houses or 5 cars, one for each day of the week; they are content with a roof over their family's head, a meal for each night, and an old dependable clunker to get around in.


What is the line on the Michigan/Nebraska game?

Michigan was favored by ten points at gametime with the "over/under" total at 47.  Betting on teen-agers is another story....


How are people getting copies of the Little Mermaid that I have never seen on sale before?

People are probably going to Ebay to get them. You may want to try there.  I have found some hard to find DVD's on Ebay! Give them a look.. They may have what you are looking for
