Why do baseball coaches wear the same uniform as their players?

Tradition , if there is one thing baseball has over other sports is its link to the past.   Many players as they grew older became player managers for their teams and would not only manage the game put would field a position or have themselves ready to pinch hit at certain times. Thus, the need to have a uniform on during games.  Also, coaches stand on the playing field next to 1st and 3rd bases.  However, in modern day baseball I think managers look rather silly in uniform.


Anybody out there who doesn't believe in God, and doesn't feel like you're missing out on anything?

Pardon my intrusion, but I do believe in God, 100%.  Not any god or idol of worship, but Jesus Christ, the one true God.  As a believer, my opinion is that "those" who don't believe in God ARE missing out on something (many things), including friendship (if you're alone in this world), fellowship (with other believers, not persecutors), and spiritual satisfaction (always knowing that if God brings you "to it", then God will bring you "through it".)  Good question,  probably no right or wrong answers though...

Have you downloaded these fake Adware/Spyware removers? List N-Z?

I would advise only using adware/spyware removers from credible companies and organizations.  Always do a search before installing something onto your computer if you have not heard of it before.\n\nFor spyware solutions, Spybot Search & Destroy is great.  If you are willing to try Microsoft's beta, consider MS Defender.  Both are currently free.\n\nhttp://www.safer-networking.org/\nhttp://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=435bfce7-da2b-4a6a-afa4-f7f14e605a0d&DisplayLang=en\n\nDon't forget to always update the spyware definitions before scanning.\n\nThe best way to prevent spyware is to not go to suspicious websites, open unknown attachments, click on links from spam, etc.  Also, clear your cookies and run your anti-spyware program from time to time.

Please don't think it is you.  There are many reasons why men can't get it up.  It happened to me once and the reason was my b-friend was doing drugs.  I thought it was me but it wasn't.  Medications can also cause this to happen.

We would make skim boards out of plywood (about 25 years ago). Get a piece of plywood, cut out the shape you would like. Round the edges of the board, cover with resin (one side at a time). If you'd like you can use fiberglass w/ the resin, but its not really necessary. Sand down the rough edges and you're ready to go. Skim boards today have core made of resins and are lighter than plywood. The height of the board is about the height of a body board (4 ft). The width varies on the shape.

Number One Observatory Circle \n\nThe large telescope at the Naval Observatory in Washington, D.C. attracted hundreds of visitors in 1910, including President Howard Taft and his wife, Helen. The stargazing Tafts drove up the hill past the superintendent's house to the Naval Observatory in their new automobile to look at Halley's Comet. The next time a president could view Halley's Comet-75 years later-the superintendent's house of the Naval Observatory would serve as the Vice President's home. \n\nThe white 19th Century house overlooking Massachusetts Avenue in Washington D.C. was built in 1893 for the superintendent of the United States Naval Observatory. The house was so lovely that the chief of naval operations booted the superintendent and made the house his home in 1923. The house was "taken over" again in 1974 when Congress turned "Number One Observatory Circle" into the official residence of the Vice President. \n\nBefore 1974, Vice Presidents and their families lived in their own home, but the cost of securing these private homes had grown substantially over the years. After years of debate, Congress agreed to refurbish the house at the Naval Observatory as a home for the Vice President. \n\nAlthough Number One Observatory Circle was available to the Vice President in 1974, three years passed before a Vice President lived in the home. Vice President Ford became President Ford before he could use the home, and his Vice President, Nelson Rockefeller, only used the home for entertaining. Vice President Mondale was the first Vice President to move into the home. It has since been home to the Bushes, the Quayles and the Gores. \n\nToday, Vice President Richard Cheney and Lynne Cheney live in the Vice President's Residence. Like many Vice Presidential families, the Cheneys have decorated the home with their own furnishings. They also have displayed American art on loan from museums, including Helen Frankenthaler's Lush Spring, Andrew Wyeth's Siri and western paintings by George Catlin. \n\nFrom world leaders to young children, the Cheneys have welcomed many guests to the Vice President's Residence. They have hosted leaders of several nations, including President Mubarak of Egypt and Vice President Hu Jintao of China. Lynne Cheney hosted a Constitution Day event on Sept. 17, 2002 and welcomed 200 second graders for a program and workshop about the Constitution. \n\nOver the years, the Naval Observatory has continued to operate. Scientists there make observations of the sun, moon, planets and selected stars; determine and distribute precise time; and publish astronomical data needed for accurate navigation.

Buying house with 100% down. Do I need an attorney? Where can I find checklist?

I bought my home with cash. I would highly recommend hiring a lawyer. He or she can handle all the little details that most normal people don't think about. Make sure you go to town hall and make sure the taxes are up to date, also. You can also get a realtor, preferably a 'buyers agent', to sort through the paperwork. A lawyer works 'by the hour'. A realtor on a percentage of the sale price (or most do.)

How do I make sure that my 6 year old who was placed on the autism spectrum is treated like a nomal kid.?

You have to stay on the school and the teachers. Let them know that you are a concerned parent. If your not there call them. They should have given you a parent rights book when they made that decision. I have a 16yr old brother with Aspergers.  A good site to get onfo also is http://www.autismtoday.com/index.asp. Remember dont let up. They will see that you want whats best for him, not any special treatment.


In your definition, whats the meaning of life?

If you know Jesus and have a relationship with Him, life is an adventure filled with joy, meaning, and purpose.\n\nIf you do not know Jesus and you live life just to live it then you have to face the fact that your life is completely meaningless.  Some may say that they will leave a "legacy" or live for their family and friends, but what about 8,000 years from now? Will your life still have mattered? Nobody will know or care what you did...I'm not trying to sound offensive or anything like it, I'm telling the truth...think about it...8,000 years from now...will your knowledge matter then?

What is the best way to destroy a chip in a brain?  I'm writing a story.?

There is this new technology called a "gamma knife."  It is used to kill tumors in the brain.  It consists of 201 gamma rays, almost harmless in and of themselves, targeting a particular area in the brain and meeting there.  It kills that section of the brain instantly.  \n\nIt is completely non-invasive since it is a different kind of radiation therapy.  They have to strap your head down and stick you in something like an MRI - this is so you don't move your head during the process and they accidentally "zap" a different part of your brain.  It is optional whether you want to be asleep during it or awake.

I am Liberal Democrat I whant to know the definition and in what they belive?

You're not a Liberalist, if you know nothing about it.\n\nAnyway, I will try to simplify. Liberalism is the believe that the individual should be free of society and government restriction as long as he  (in the earlier liberalism was based on free men; women, children and slaves weren't included) respect and stop at the others' freedom. Liberty is postive freedom. Liberalism is in favour of individualism. Usually Liberalism is seen to include capitalism.\n\nHope that will help.

What is the history of Cascade dishwasher detergent?

I don't think you'll be able to find the product lifecycle of Cascade without contacting the manufacturer, Procter and Gamble. \n\nBut there was this information of the P&G web site:\n\nCascade Powder automatic dishwasher detergent with sheeting action for virtually spotless dishes was introduced in January 1955 in a pine scent with blue/green granules. The Lemon scent was added in 1984. Cascade Liquigel automatic dishwashing detergent was introduced in 1986 in a liquid-clay-based formula with a creamy consistency. Cascade is currently available in powder, gel and tablet forms.


If I find an .exe file named drsmartload (a trojan horse downloader) on my computer, should I delete it?

Batman, now u really gotta believe me, i have a trojan attack before, called SpyAxe, its really irritating, i cant remove it through the "Add/Remove" program on my computer. everytime i reboot, the SpyAxe comes back again. TRUST ME, DO NOT use another program, like the other answerers here said, to delete it. delete it manually, even if it takes a lot of time, like having to reboot to safemode n all that. yes it does work for some of these anti-spyware programs, BUT why am i stopping you, why? coz SpyAxe actually claims to be such an anti-spyware program, but it actually attached a trojan horse virus with it, that causes SpyAxe to appear each time we reboot our com. some pple couldnt stand it n decided to pay SpyAxe to remove the trojan. its all a scam from Spyaxe. to know more abt this spyaxe, u can search in Yahoo. i also found out how to remove the trojan manually through a search done in Yahoo, which brought me to a forum page(pls click on link below) where many others also caught this SpyAxe problem. the forum also states many other computer problems.\n\nin the 1st place, the reason i chose to delete this SPyAxe manually is becoz i needed to pay the other programs to delete the trojan. its really ridiculous rite? n u know what, wad i'm gonna say next is true, i read this from the forum page submitted by real pple.. this guy actually couldn't stand seeing the Spyaxe after rebooting his com everytime, so he download another anti-spyware program to get rid of the trojan, since he knows that SpyAxe is the one who actually attached the trojan with itself so pple who click on SpyAxe's advertisement n scan their PCs for free will get the trojan infection(whereby the scan results will show that u haf many viruses on your PC, which is not true). then they will ask u to download SpyAxe(there is a fee for using Spyaxe) to remove the trojan for you. then this guy, he downloaded other program, n PAID them, but it didnt work. he was so pissed off, he couldnt stand it, he actually decided to pay SpyAxe to remove e trojan for him!! n here comes the WORSE part... SpyAxe is not an anti-spyware prgm at all! e guy called the no. to look for SpyAxe management team, n the number actually was to a flower shop!! i didnt know whether to laugh or to cry when i saw this in the forum. tt's y i would really advise u to del e trojan manually urself, rather than download some other program to remove it. u will never know what u are downloading.\n\ni deleted it manually and it really did work, i didnt even need to spend a cent. even better, if your PC has a 'system recovery' program, u can juz restore it to an earlier time, a time before the trojan infected your PC. i know ACER computers have this program, n some other brands too. Mine is an ACER laptop, but too bad i didnt set a restore date so i couldn't use this program to help me. if your PC has this program too, do set a restore date where everything in your PC is working fine. you'll thank your lucky stars when you really need to use this program. \n\nBatman, REALLY< BELIEVE ME OK? i spent so much time typing this answer! good luck to you!! do check out the link, there are forums abt other PC problems, forums are best coz those are the pple who have the same problem n they have solved it using their ways, always finish reading every message in the forum, coz some might say this particular way works, but some say no. u haf to read through the whole thing to get the best solution.\n\nHope to hear from u how u removed the trojan, i noe how irritating it can be. do email me at yuni_chan88@yahoo.com.sg ok? thanks! =]


when do I go to get information on bi-polar?

The word "bipolar" is simply a label used to categorise a list of psychosocial traits that Psychiatry considers to be improper or abnormal in society. Psychiatry defines these traits as a "mental illness", and promotes it as a "disease" that requires "treatment".\n\nIt is not a "disease", despite claims or implications made by certain psychiatric and pharmaceutical organisations. There is NO credible scientific evidence that shows the existence of what constitutes "bipolar" as a biological/neurological disorder, brain abnormality or "chemical imbalance".\n\n"For a disease to exist there must be a tangible, objective physical abnormality that can be determined by a test such as, but not limited to, blood or urine test, X-Ray, brain scan or biopsy. All reputable doctors would agree: No physical abnormality, no disease. In psychiatry, no test or brain scan exists to prove that a 'mental disorder' is a physical disease. Disingenuous comparisons between physical and mental illness and medicine are simply part of psychiatry's orchestrated but fraudulent public relations and marketing campaign." Fred Baughman, MD., Neurologist & Pediatric Neurologist.\n\n"Chemical imbalance…it’s a shorthand term really, it’s probably drug industry derived… We don’t have tests because to do it, you’d probably have to take a chunk of brain out of someone - not a good idea." Dr. Mark Graff, Chair of the Committee of Public Affairs for the American Psychiatric Association. July, 2005.\n\nSymptoms that psychiatry labels as "bipolar" (or it's related disorders), can stem from any number of variable sources. Many people, for example, have overcome "bipolar" through megavitamin therapy and effective nutrition. A growing wealth of evidence supports that underlying nutritional deficiencies can cause even the most severe mental disorders, including symptoms labelled as "schizophrenia" [See source refs]\n\nBottom line? Psychiatry is a belief-system, a "faith", not a science. Despite the huge marketing strategies, the so-called "research" and all the propaganda thrown at the world, there is not one iota of scientific evidence that proves that "schizophrenia" or ANY mental illness, in fact, exists as an actual --medical disease--.\n\nIf you have been told differently then know this: You have been lied to.\n\nFor more information, please visit:\n\nhttp://groups.msn.com/psychbusters\nDecoding Psychiatric Propaganda\n\nFor information on non-drug / alternative approaches:\n- http://www.alternativementalhealth.com/articles/default.htm#B\n- http://www.pendulum.org/articles/articles_misc_lisaalt.html\n- http://www.truehope.com/_empowerplus/empowerplus.asp\n- http://www.mentalhealthproject.com/content.asp?id_Content=1575


My feet feel numb and stiff these days. It feels very tight inside. What could be the cause for it ?

Not enough information there to be sure, but there are always possibilities.\n\nIt could be your feet have grown or flattened and are larger than they used to be. Your shoes may be too tight.\n\nWater retention, which could come from anything from insufficient exercise or sitting in a computer chair too long to low circulation to other more complicated (and some potentially dangerous) things. Even pregnancy. (I don't know your gender or age so I'll suggest that.)\n\nNerve changes, which can have many causes, some as simple as wearing a belt too tight or sitting on a wallet in your back pocket, and some being a sign of something else in your body out of kilter.\n\nIf it's worth asking here, it's worth asking your physician about -- from curiosity, not from fear. \n\nThey're trained to assume and check for the worst things first and only when they prove that those aren't the cause, move onto the less alarming causes. They do this because they'd rather check for the worst and be wrong than to miss checking and be dead wrong. It's just the way they are. Would you want them to be any other way?\n\nIf there's any extreme or rapid change or if pain starts anywhere in your legs, have it checked right away. That'd be a sign that there's a little more happening than a little stiffness and numbness.\n\n----------\nNow that you've asked your first question, go read and rate some others. You can show your experience here by adding on some points, and rating answers is the easiest way to do it. You get to do 20 each day.

how would the climate of ur hometown have been diffrent 150million yrs ago,based on its position on the planet

Where I live now would have been part of a fore arc-subduction complex. At that time the western coast of the area that is now the United States was near the California-Arizona border, and the California-Nevada border. The Sierra Nevada was just starting to rise. A number of islands existed off the west coast that later became part of the North American plate. \n\nThe entire area was just above the equator. The environment was a desert biome. Worldwide, temperatures were warmer than they are today. There were no icecaps on the planet.  The plants that lived in what is now Southern California were dry-adapted (xeromorphic) to live in the hot arid to semi-arid environment.  Some conifers, trees with veined lobed leaves (Ginkophytes), rarely ferns, cycadophytes which look like a palm tree were all likely found growing in microclimates near the coast where there was more rainfall. The most impressive forms of animal life would have been several species of suaropods, which fed on conifers, ginkos and cyads. These were the dinosaurs with long necks and tails. Stegosaurus might have been feeding in the vegetation, and a bipedal carnivore called Ornitholestes may have preyed on them. \n\nSea life would have been abundant, and marine crocodiles may have been common. Large ichthyosaurs (marine reptiles) that reached 2-4 meters made swimming hazardous. Plesiosaurs were also likely to be present in coastal waters and may have preyed on the crocs. Sharks were abundant.  Fish might have been of a group known as bony fish, of which the lungfish and coelacanth are modern survivors. In the air Rhamphorhynchus, a flying reptile probably caught fish like pelicans do today. In shallow sea waters there were some strange looking bivalves known as Diceratids that often built shoals like modern day oysters do. Sea urchins, starfish, and crinoids lived in the shallow and shelf waters. Dragonflies and damselflies were present; also ants, butterflies, and grasshoppers lived in the vegetated areas. \n\n\nTo see a paleogeographic map go here and scroll down to the 150 Ma plate:\nhttp://jan.ucc.nau.edu/rcb7/jurpaleo.html\nHere is another map:\nhttp://jan.ucc.nau.edu/rcb7/150NAt.jpg\nBiome map for Late Jurassic:\nhttp://pgap.uchicago.edu/data-models.html\nPaper describing climate of Late Jurassic:\nhttp://www.geo.arizona.edu/~rees/2004-1.pdf


Divide tasks into small, easy to do parts. Also try to ignore the things that disturb you, ie: TV, Computer (if you can help it), iPod, ect.\n\nHere is an example how to divide the tasks into smaller parts. Let's say we have a report due in 1 week. Here is a made-up schedule:\n\nDay 1\n-Find information for 30 minutes\n\nDay 2\n-Find information for 30 minutes\n\nDay 3\n-Write rough draft for 30 minutes\n\nDay 4\n-Finish rough draft\n\nDay 5\n-Write Final Copy for 30 minutes\n\nDay 6\n-Finish final copy\n\nDay 7\n-Relax\n\nBy doing a little work each day, I find it to make things easy in the long run. I think that working for about 30 minutes a day will not be tiring, but you will still get quite a bit done.


why did the united states attack vietnam?

The US was afraid of the "domino" effect.  They felt it necessary to stop the spread of communism because they felt if they did not stop it in Vietnam, the rest of the countries would be taken over by the communists.  I believe they took over from France.

I have a question about the lowest warmest temp. ever recored in the US.?

weather.com might have some kind of database that lists this.  I know they show the record temps when I check my local forecast.  So, just search for the place you are curious about.\nEdit: Actually, I just looked.  Click on the "Averages" tab, and you get this graph.  Then, there's little checkboxes for record highs and record lows.  if you click that, the temps show up on the graph.

Is a service economy sustainable without a value added manufacturing base?

Not really, services only go so far.  Manufacturing must be part of the mix to have a healthy economy.


Global warming is an increase in the average temperature of the Earth's atmosphere and oceans. The term is also used for the scientific theory of anthropogenic global warming, which attributes much of the recently observed and projected global warming to a human-induced intensification of the greenhouse effect. In this theory, the increased volumes of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases released mainly by the burning of fossil fuels, and, to a lesser extent, land clearing and agriculture, are the primary sources of warming. The natural greenhouse effect keeps the Earth about 33 °C warmer than it otherwise would be; adding carbon dioxide to an atmosphere, with no other changes, will make a planet's surface warmer. Current research is attempting to further illuminate and quantify the processes and factors that can affect temperature change, especially positive and negative feedback mechanisms.


How is this war with Iraq over oil going to effect our global economy?

First, your question is flawed by assuming the war is for oil.\n\nSecond, I have done two tours in Iraq. The vast majority of Iraqis love Americans. The kids love us and want to shake our hands. The adults love us and regularly invite us to dinner and special occasions. They love us when we build schools. They love us when we build roads. They love us when we rid villages of insurgents.\n\nDon't believe what the liberal media is spinning. They have an agenda just like you.


Is Animal Testing for Human Products morally right?

I don't think we should test such paltry things as beauty products on animals.  I don't think we should use animals for research of any kind UNLESS we can show that it is a study that will possibly save or extend human life, and that no human beings are willing to participate in the testing.  Any animals used for this purpose should be put into a state of sleep or made insensitive to pain.  They should be rewarded with everything they like best.  They should be given names, and these names should be listed on the products for all people benefitting from these tests to read.


What are the best sites to study English online?


What is the best guitar to buy without breaking your bank?

I agree with the above answer. Go to the music store and play some guitars by Fender, Gibson, and Ibanez that cost more than what you can afford. When you find what you like, write down the model name and number and go to eBay or a pawnshop and get it for the price you can afford to pay. I would keep about $60 in reserve so you can take it to your local instrument repair shop to have it set up (usually about $30) and re-stringed (about another $30 if you get good strings).

Also a lawyer can help to make sure you aren't held resposible for any fraudulent charges or credit cards or accounts opened in your name.\n\nI don't think you NEED a lawyer, but it definately wouldn't hurt.


Well, since the question was posted in the investment category, I assume you mean as an investment opportunity.\nChina is growing a lot faster than the US, BUT its growth is very much dependent on the US. That is why they do not dump all the US paper they own, because they do not want the value of the dollar to collapse. \n\nSeveral Chinese companies are relatively good values, compared to Indian companies for example and compared to US companies. \n\nYou can invest in many Chinese companies directly by purchasing their stocks on the NYSE and also through buying both open ended and closed end mutual funds.

where is the #1 city to raise children if you are middle incomed?

Boise, Idaho if you are looking in the North West. It is a smaller city with good schools and a low crime rate. It is a clean city with good people. It has easy accessable recreation, nice parks, and strong communities. Although it is small, it is not a very slow-moving city. It is great for children because of the schools, parks, swimming pools, and all of the activities that one can get involved with. Its definately something that needs to be checked out.

How do you test if something is from God or the Devil?  Can you apply it to the Bible?

First of all you CANNOT rely on feelings.  Feelings are temporary and based on how much sleep you got or what you ate or what you are dealing with at work or home or any number of other circumstances. Emotions are not reliable.\n\nTrue "joy" for example is totaly different from happiness.  Joy is not related to circumstance but is based on the facts of the gospel.  Paul said that he has "learned" (phil 4:10)to be content. Joy is based on information, not temporary circumstance(imprisonment for Paul) or hormone levels, etc.\n \nSo then for a test regarding the Lord's will see Isaiah 8:20. The context of this passage is false prophets vs. true prophets (man's will vs. God's will).  Isaiah states that if a thing is in opposition to the law of God (which is the revealed will of God) and the testimony (or the message of a true prophet), then it is evil.  Isaiah directs people to the word, not philosophers. \n\nIf any man speaks contrary to the Word, there is NO light in them.    The devil mixes truth with error.  99% true and 1% false = 100% false. Jesus is light and in Him is no darkness at all.  (1john 1:5)  see also 1John 2:3-6 to determine whether or not you are following Him. ><> \n\nMay the Lord bless you & keep you.

I have epson stylus cx4600 printer.Just re-filled cartridges, but printer shows message "no ink". Any idea?

I have a couple of new epson printers. \nThe new cx printers are extremely hard to fill. How did you fill them in the first place?\n If you drill or melt a hole in the top, in the EXACT \ncorrect position, and slowly fill them, letting the air\nand ink bubbles exhaust, then, they are "full".\nI weigh the cartridges when new, and when empty, and\nwhen re-filled, so that I know if indeed, they are\nre-filled. You can now buy gram or ounce weight digital scales\neverywhere, including kitchen stores, and retail outlets,\nand they are 20 bucks or so, and very accurate.\n Check the carts to see if on the front, bottom or back\nedge there is a tiny green circuitboard attached to\nink cart with two melted dots of case plastic posts.\n If so, then you have otherwise, a piece of plastic,\ncontaning 35 cents worth of ink, with a self-destruct\nprogrammable chip on it. Every time you use ink, the\nchip is programmed by 7 gold contact points, and the\nprinter "guesses" how much ink you have, and subtracts it.\nAt about 25 per cent to 33 percent full, the chip is\ntold that you are out of ink. This rather full piece\nof plastic, is then DEAD, and cannot be used again.\nI have used a new, FULL cart, and simply run the CLEAN HEAD\nEpson utility a few times, and been told that the carts are now\n50 percent Full ( HALF EMPTY !!! -- and I hadn't printed\nanything yet!!! )\nThe extra caution in telling a cart with ink in, that it\nis empty, is done to prevent the cart from ever really\nemptying, which would suck air into the carriage fill\npost nozzel, and into an inch or two of piping inside\nthe print carriage / head assembly, and in 20 minutes the\nink inside these tubes would dry, and almost permanently\ndestroy the tiny print holes ability to re-wet with any\nnew ink. \n  If you take out a cart, you must either put in a new one\nimmediately, or re-fill immediately. I have seen many \nEpsons in the garbage - all with badly dried print head /\ncarriage assemblies - if you have a SCANNER/ PRINTER, \nsuch as my CX printers, the second the print head is\n"told" by estimation software, that it is "empty" the \nentire machine, including the scanner is DEAD, since,\nwhen you turn it on, you cannot get past the ERROR\nink out message !!!!. \n  The Espon printers with the "new and improved" print ink\nheads and ink carts, are EXTREMELY fragile, and will\nself-destruct at the tiniest problem. If the power goes\noff, and the head is not parked, it dries out. If you\ntake out a cart and go to the store with the cart to \nmake certain you have the correct one, the print head\ndries out. You cannot take out the print head to soak\nit in water without completely tearing the printer apart,\nand removing the delicate microfilm plastic position\nstrip, and the drive belt, and many fragile parts...\n If you do manage to get the print head out, the print head\nis extremely delicate, and ordinary tap water will\ncontaminate the print head holes, and actually\nclog the head worse than the dried ink. Using paper \nproducts with sharp cellulose fibers clogs the heads,\nif you wipe the heads.. ( one webiste uses strips of\ncoffee filters and distilled water, with some success ).\n  The green, self destructing programmable chips on the\nempty pieces of plastic cases, ARE RE-PROGRAMMABLE, and\nprogrammers are available at most decent computer retailers,\nsuch as COMP USA, FRYs, Staples, Business Depot, etc.,\nsince these reputable companies know that the customers\nare being ripped off with being forced to purchase 50\ncent ink carts, that are not even empty, for 40 times the\ncost of manufacture! You MUST make certain that the programmer\nyou purchase LISTS the printer model, or the cart model,\nsince there are dozens of programmers, and Epson keeps\nchanging the programming on new models, so that customers\nare forced to buy only over-priced Epson" carts!\n I am surprised that you state you FILLED an Epson ca


If Mars has been found to have had water?

There are polar caps on Mars that vary with the season. These are composed of ice, and dry ice (solid CO2). The Martian atmosphere is about 3% water vapor, which is the most water vapor that it can hold at its temperature and pressure, so it has a high relative humidity. We believe that Mars has permafrost under the surface. There appear to be runoff channels from water in some places on the Martian surface. \n\nIf there ever was a civilization on Mars, they did not leave much in the way of clues or ruins, or at least they have not been found yet, and I suspect they will not be.


I'd like to be a part time chaplain(US Army). How many days in a month would the army requires me to report?

for starters, to be a chaplain you have to have a degree in theology and while in college you have the option to go through rotc.  or you can enlist and be a chaplain's assistant, learn the ropes and what's required and then go through ocs.  which, in my personal opinion will make you a better officer, knowing what the enlisted men go through and deal with and so on.  most reserve and guard chaplains, are also ministers on the civilian side.  its not a requirement, but most are.  to forewarn you though, as a reserve or guard chaplain, you are subject to be called up to fill duties at a stateside base, depending on what denomination you pursue. what i mean that is if 2 or 3 chaplains are moved to another post or if they are deployed to iraq or something, someone needs to fill in for them.   but most generally, unless you take an agr (active guard and reserve) position, it's only one weekend a month 2 weeks a year. i hope that helped and here are a couple links to check out for chaplain and chaplain's assistant.  hope this helps.  good luck and god bless

Dr. Rice or Senator Hilary, Who do you think would make a better presidential candidate?

Ms. Clinton already has the experience. She came out on top of her husbands sex scandal looking like a sweet and innocent victim, and then turned around and stormed the senate. Hillary has the minority vote, the feminist vote, the aclu vote, and the "i'm not a republican" vote. Condi does not have the "America's sweetheart" history that the Hillinator has. Hillary has done a good job of knowing how to deal publicly with isuues and come out appearing to be a caring advocate of the people. If the dreaded day came that they were the candidates, Hillary would win.


I hear that you are safe in an \nautomobile in a lightning storm. \nWhy?

The 'do not touch metal inside a car' is an urban legend.\n\nThe car body acts like a Faraday cage. \n\nA Faraday cage is an enclosure designed to exclude electromagnetic fields. It works on the basis of Gauss's law, one of Maxwell's equations. The Gauss's law describes the distribution of electrical charge on a conducting form, such as a sphere, a plane, a car, etc. Since like charges repel each other, charge will "migrate" to the surface of the cage and not affect anyone inside. Also, since the human body has a higher resistance then the metal, the charge would not travel though the body, as it will always take the shortest way to the ground/path of least resistance. \n\nIt is named after physicist Michael Faraday, who built the first Faraday cage in 1836.

what is the capital of Benguela Province, Angola?

Benguela (São Felipe de Benguela, formerly spelt Benguella) is a port in western Angola, south of Luanda, and capital of Benguela Province. It lies on a bay of the same name, in 12° 33’ S., 13° 25’ E.\n\nBenguela was founded in 1617 by the Portuguese under Manoel Cerveira Pereira. It was long the centre of an important trade, especially in slaves to Brazil and Cuba. The anchorage lies about a mile from the town, in 4 to 6 fathoms (7 to 11 m). Besides the churches of S. Felipe and S. Antonio, the hospital, and the fortress, there are (as of 1911) only a few stone-built houses. A short way beyond Benguela is Baía Farta, where salt is manufactured and sulphur excavated.\n\nIt is the port terminus of the railway that runs from Beira in Mozambique through the Copper Belt of Zambia and Zimbabwe. In 1983 it had a population of 155,000.

M 50. Under great emotional stress last month. Mensuration very regular, but missed tis month. Is it menopause

Stress is probably the number one cause of irregular periods. However, assuming your age is 50, you very well could be in the early stages of menopause. Most women women start to experience symptoms as early as 40 years. If you have any doubts or are worried about menopause, talk with a doctor. As far as HRT's go, your doctor should be able to tell you if you need them. They may not even be right for you. In the meantime, relax, take a luxurious hot bath with lots of bubbles and slow down. Let your brain unwind. Talk to your doctor or gynocologist. They are there to help. Best of luck to you

Ideally your level (or gain) should be set the same as your headunits output voltage, that is if you have a 3-volt output on your low-level outputs your gain on the amplifier should be set at 3 volts as well (I know Hifonics amps use voltage markings on the gain).  Crossovers should be set at the highest frequency (if used as subwoofer amp) or the lowest frequency (if used as voice-grade and above) your speakers allow.  If your subs can only go up to 100Hz before distortion, then stop at 100Hz.

Ok chemtutor,how do you change a fraction into a percent??? I'm in the 7th grade so make it simple pleez!!!

It is very simple \nNow lets begin from the percent\n\nPERCENT MEANS PER HUNDRED\n \nPLZ READ CAREFULY IT"S VERY IMPORTANT PART\n\nU might know how to find out the equivalents of a fraction\n\nlet me give u an EXAMPLE\n\n    1/2  =  2/4  =  4/8  =  8/16 etc\n\nKEY POINT: we can find out the EQUIVALENTS of a fraction by multiplying both numerator and denominator by the same number. In above example i have multipied both the numerators and denominators of each fraction with "2".\n\nSO NOW LES GET TO THE PERCENT\n\nwhile finding out the percentage of a fraction u have to think that u r actually trying to find out the fraction's equivalent. But that is a particular equivalent with denominator "100"\n\nEXAMPLE\nFind out the percentage of 1/2\n\n1/2  =   x/100\n\nthe denominator "2" has to be multiplied by "50" to become   "100". So the numerator must be multiplied with "50" too.\n\n1/2  =   x/100\n\n1*50 =  50\n2*50 = 100\n\nthus we get \n1/2  =  50/100\n\nwhich is equal to 50%\n\ntell me if u have understood by submiting another question.

What is the significance of compressibility factor?

In thermodynamics and fluid mechanics, compressibility is a measure of the relative volume change of fluid or solid as a response to a pressure (or mean stress) change.\n\nCompressibility is an important notion in aerodynamics. At low speeds, the compressibility of air is not important for aircraft design, but as the airflow nears and exceeds the speed of sound, a host of new aerodynamic effects become important in the design of aircraft. These effects, often several of them at a time, made it very difficult for World War II era aircraft to reach speeds much beyond 500mph.\n\nThe term "compressibility" is also used in thermodynamics to describe the deviance in the thermodynamic properties of a real gas from those expected from an ideal gas.

what are the types of parliamentary system and their meaning?

In democracy we have the powers - legislative, executive and judicial. In parliamentary systems the parlament - the legislative, is the main one. it pravails over the power of the president. People vote and a parlament is formed. Then depending on the terms set in the constitution, it forms a cabinet - the executive power. So the parlament makes the law, the cabinet executes them and the judicial systems makes sure everything goes according to the constitution and the law. The prasident has less prerogatives and just a formal figure. Still his prerogatives depend on the constitution.\nThis type of system is believed to be the best, because ypou have more control and power is devided.


Good question. \nLet me see if I can explain.\n\nOkay sin is all sin, but there are 2 "kinds" of sin. There is sin and then there are sins (plural).\n\nAll sin seperates us from God becasue God is perfect and he can't be with sin. So sin always blocks us from him.\n\nWhen we are born, we are born in sin, therefore sin is in our hearts. (To put it another way, we have a root of sin in us) That is why we need to be saved. When we accept Christ, he forgives us and that root (sin) is gone. We are completely forgiven, and we recieve access to God. That is what salvation is.\n\nHowever, even though we are forgiven and saved, we still mess up sometimes because we are human and we're not perfect. In other words, we commit sins. The sins we commit will not keep us out of heaven (becasue we have been saved)but they will keep us from God (because all sin does that). They get in the way of our faith and hinder our prayers. (For example have you ever messed up and felt guilty, then you were hesitant to pray because of the guilt?) Those sins will always get in our way, but as soon as we confess them to God, he forgives them and takes them away. Then the block is gone and he is free to continue moving in our lives. \n\nSo think of it this way, we are saved when we accept Christ, so we no longer have to worry about going to hell. But confession helps us to maintain a good relationship with our father.\n\nLook at it this way. If you have a child, you will love your child no matter what. Hopefully you would discipline your child, but you would never seriously harm them, and you would always protect them to the best of your ability. But if the child decided to rebel, run away from home, and "live a life of sin," it would be harder for you to protect the child, and the child would get hurt along the way. On the other hand, if the child was obediant and respectful to you, it would be easier and the child would be better off (safer, better taken care of becuase you would have the ability to provide better in that case). But you would still love the child either way right. In the same way, God loves us no matter what we do, but as we confess our sins and obey him, we give him more ability to care for us better. If we run away and rebel, he still loves us, but we are on our own to sufer the consequenses that go with the sin we commit. So obviously the best thing for us is to confess and stay close to our father, so that we may recieve the full protection and benefits. (Plus from the parent perspective that's what He wants us to do becasue he wants to care for us closely.)\n\nOf course how you confess is between you and God. Ultimately God is the only one you have to answer to. However confessing to others (whom you trust) often does help becasue it helps us to "walk in the light" and avoid sin. I personally have never been to a formal confession, but I have benefited alot from accountibility partners and groups. In other words I have turned to trusted friends and confessed to them when I needed to. They in turn prayed for me and encouraged me, helping me get through things I needed to get through in life. I would definately suggest hooking up with a person or small group where you can do this.

People were probably talking about this stuff before you could even speak coherently.  FYI, there are MANY other Disney films that also contain suggestive and sometimes obscene elements.  Lion King, Aladdin, The Rescuers--that one was made 3 years before I was born, and I'm almost a decade older than you anyway.  I think it's funny, and I was not only alive, but socially aware when it happened.  Don't waste your time--you are definitely not the first one to "figure" this out.  WTF....

These are ideal conditions for equities. Low interest rates and steady inflation are perfect for asset appreciation. Commodities are also in a bull run. Tea, sugar, gold, etc. are in mutli-year bull markets. In equities emergin markets such as India, Brazil, Turkey look promising.

There is a lot of good to organized religion, because it can accomplish more if the efforts and people are organized. However, when groups get too big, there are usually problems because people make mistakes. The bigger the group, the harder it is to correct.

What is the best gaming video card to buy?

Well sorry to say this but the 7800 GTX processor from nvidia isn't te best one. It was untill ATI released the new radeon 1900 processor. It's aprox 10% faster. But things aren't going to stop here. nVidia already announced the new 7900 GTX processor (to beat what ati has conquered :)). Tehnically speaking, there is no best video card looking at how computers delevop. If today this is the best one, tommorow voila, something better appears. \nAnd if you want a link with a card based on Radeon 1900 processor, well you could try it here:


Why are 'black' people called black and 'white' people called white?

I think the majority of the people (including African-Americans) use the words "white" and "black" as a simplifier.  It is the same principle that an official in a basketball game uses to describe to the score keeper the player who committed the foul.  He commonly will say, for example, "push on number 11, blue team" when the color of uniform he is alluding to is actually purple or another odd darker color.  The same if the player is wearing grey.  The official will refer to it as white.  It is just easier for clarification.\n\nThere may be some hidden motivation for some people in the past (or possibly the present) concerning good/bad, black/white, but I doubt that most people get that from it.\n\nAs a matter of fact, I would guess that most people would rather have a black car than a white one.  White is plain (and usually less expensive).\n\nPeople will see what they want to see, I guess.


In the relationship, if your partner promises many things, but not willing to do. What do you do?

I would tell my partner I didn't force the promise, but once it is freely given, I expect it to be kept, and will be offended otherwise.\nIf however you forced him to an agreement, he will feel resentful about the coercion and refuse to do it, actively or passively. The key is always convince him to agree with your position freely, to give him some sense of free will/choice. If you fail in that, not only the promises would be broken, the whole relationship might be.\nAnd if you succeed, you will have things done, and convince him in the process it was as much his idea as yours. Then you both ought to be happy with your relationship.

If you had been in the same situation as the U.S. Marine in Fallujah, would you have shot the wound Iraqi?

Yes.   I've seen that video lots of times, and the Marines are yelling at people to not move.    They also had an interpreter telling people to remain still.   When your ass is on the line, you should NOT continue to give people the benefit of a doubt because you'll end up dead.\n\nOur military is ALL VOLUNTEER.   Members know the risk when they sign up.   I know this because I have several family members who served in different branches of the military.\n\nWhether or not you agree with how/why our troops ended up in harm's way, you should consider it your civic duty to publicly support our troops.   To do anything less would be an act of ungratefulness.

where did valentines day origenate from?

SAINT VALENTINE  \n \nSaint Valentine, according to romantic legend, was a kind-hearted Roman priest who married young couples against the wishes of Emperor Claudius II, and was beheaded for his deeds on the 14th of February. In truth, the exact origins and identity of St. Valentine are unclear. According to the Catholic Encyclopedia, "At least three different Saint Valentines, all of them martyrs, are mentioned in the early martyrologies under the date of 14 February." Two of these men lived in the third century A.D., one being the bishop of Interamna (now Terni, Italy) and the other a priest of Rome. (Some speculate that these two figures were actually the same man.) Both seem to have been persecuted for their beliefs; the Roman priest reportedly was beaten and then beheaded on the orders of Emperor Claudius II, on or about the year 270. Legends vary on how the martyr's name became connected with romance: the date of his death may have become mingled with the feast of Lupercalia, a pagan festival of love, or with the ancient belief that birds first mate in the middle of February. In modern times Valentine's Day is a day of special romantic sentiment and gift-giving.

how do I market a new plastic extrusion business?

There are many plastics businesses already entrenched in the market, so your best bet would be to market your product/s based on competitive prices.\n\nA brief description of your competition is below:\n\n"According to the U.S. Census Bureau, there were a total of 3,908 establishments involved in the plastics and basic forms and shapes industry in 2001. There were a total of 43,116 employees, with an annual payroll of approximately $2 million. In 2003, the workforce had decreased to 30,279 employees. The annual sales for the industry totaled $10.9 billion in 2003.\n\nThe plastics materials and basic shapes sector controls more than 30 percent of the industry in terms of market share. The sector consists of 931 establishments, with total sales of $3.3 million. The plastics materials not elsewhere classified segment made up more than 24 percent of the market, with $6.7 million in sales. The plastics products not elsewhere classified segment made up more than 19 percent of the market, with $6.7 million in sales. Still others included resins with sales of $24.9 million; plastics resins with sales of $8.7 million; synthetic resins with $3.6 million; plastic basic shapes, with $2 million; plastics film, with $3.3 million; and plastics, sheets, and rods with $4 million.\n\nA panel of 67 journalists gathered by the Newseum, a journalism museum, ranked the invention of plastic number 46 on its list of the 100 most significant news events of the 20th Century, according to a February 1999 American Plastics Council (APC) press release. Newsweek magazine seconded this opinion. As the APC reported in November 1999, the year-to-date plastic resin production by August 1999 amounted to 52.1 billion pounds, a 5.3 percent increase over production for the same eight-month period in 1998. August 1999 production reached 6.6 billion pounds, a 0.7 percent decrease from July 1999 production but a 4.1 percent increase over August 1998 production.\n\nBoth shipments and employment in plastics rose over the 1990s. Employment continued its annual growth rate of 3 percent since 1974, reaching 1,337,700 jobs by 1996, and shipment values continued their two-and-a-half decade growth rate of 4.1 percent, and between 1991 and 1996 alone shipment values rose 55 percent, reaching a value of $274.5 billion in 1996, according to APC statistics.\n\nThe 1992 Census of Wholesale Trade listed 3,490 companies as wholesale distributors of plastic materials and basic forms and shapes. Their combined sales totaled $28.5 billion. At least 160 of these companies reported annual sales of $25 million or higher. The industry employed 25,504 workers and posted an annual payroll of $803.6 million. These figures can be compared to those of the 1980s, where the 1987 Census of Wholesale Trade listed 2,744 companies in this group, with combined sales of $20.3 billion, 28,453 workers, and an annual payroll of $788.4 million.\n\nBetween 1988 and 1992, the average return on assets for the nation's plastic distributors dropped 45 percent, from 8.1 percent to 4.6 percent, although individual distributors had varying success. As Mark Bogin, of Roechling Engineered Plastics in Gastonia, North Carolina, observed in IAPD Magazine, "plastic distributors serve a cross-section of industry, and no two distributors serve the same market and industries in the same way." Bogin also said "there is hardly any industry that does not use our products, and regardless of general economic conditions there are always industries which are growing."\n\nAccording to a report issued by the APC in 2003, the overall industry had remained flat. The economy had weakened by the war in Iraq and the workforce continued to decline. The plastics industry being dependent upon other industry's needs for their products, felt the rippling effect of the downturn in the overall economy.\n\nIn 2004, the plastics market began to recover from the downturn and production of plastic resin rose to 6.

Celluloid was invented in 1870 by John Wesley Hyatt and Isaiah Hyatt because of a shortage of ivory....?

According to Wikipedia, celluloid was invented by an Englishman Alexander Parkes in 1856 who thought of it as a waterproofing material. Another Englishman Daniel Spill developed a similar product soon after. The Hyatts later developed it as a replacement for ivory in making billiard balls. \n\nBritannica on the other hand gives the credit to Hyatt. Encarta gives Hyatt the credit for refining into the "first practical synthetic plastic".  The short answer to your question is billiard balls.

how can a copper photovoltaic cell be constructed?

I know of no copper-based solar cells.  They involve some silver alloys deposited on silicon semi-conductors.  If you need a copper based cell, try a strip of copper and a strip of zinc in a potato or lemon.  It will make enough power for an LCD cheapo clock or watch to run off for a long time.  \n\nThe chemistry, heat, and equipment needed to generate semiconductor material is way beyond the home-experimenter's abilities and budget.

A procedure that introduces a catheter into the arteries of your heart carries a risk of death.\nIt is rare but it does happen. I had a patient go into cardiac arrest during a cardiac cath.

Do you think the governor of Puebla is helping pedophiles?

I can't say that i know it for sure, but it seems to be the true. I don't know if it is about backing that sick behaviour, but only in the way of backing up a very wealthy person who can give him economical support for his political career. \nAny way you see it, this is a shame for my country, to find people that can act in the way they act against a journalist, and the way they manage the justice in the state of Puebla is something that have to be punished in order to avoid this kind of acts to happen again.

They can average around $20 a day for a few hours "work".  They are usually NOT homeless.  I have heard that many of them refuse offers of work.\n\nMy grandson gave one outside our grocery store his allowance (4 quarters), and when we went to Pizza Hut after\nshopping, we saw him putting the quarters in the arcade game machine.\n\nIf you are planning on begging this way, be aware that there are territorial people (beggars) who will steal your money and beat you up.  There are also mean-spirited thugs who might attack.  In some areas thugs are going around with baseball bats and ruthlessly assaulting "bums".


is it incest if your cousin is adopted, and you have sexual relations with him/her?

Incest is defined as "Sexual relations between persons who are so closely related that their marriage is illegal or forbidden by custom" Personally i would believe it would be wrong depending only upon certain circumstances. Also it does depend on where you are some jurisdictions consider only those related by birth, others also those related by adoption or marriage.

What is the chemical formula for glycerin?

Glycerin, also well known as glycerine and glycerol, and less commonly as 1,2,3-propanetriol, 1,2,3-trihydroxypropane, glyceritol, and glycyl alcohol is a colorless, odorless, hygroscopic, and sweet-tasting viscous liquid. Glycerin is a sugar alcohol and has three hydrophilic alcoholic hydroxyl groups (-OH) that are responsible for its solubility in water. Glycerin is prochiral. Glycerin is used in glycerin soap, in cosmetics and creams, in foods, in chemistry, and in glycerin Fog machine mist. Glycerin is produced from dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP) by the enzyme glycerol three-phosphate dehydrogenase (Gpd p) in the mitochondrion of the eukaryotic cell during glycolysis

The strength of the buoyant force acting on an object in a fluid depends on the objects's?

in reality, it is the surface tension (adherance of molecules to one another) and density of the fluid\nbecause the question does not state that the object is suspened in the fluid\n\notherwise the force acting to keep an object buoyant would need to equate and thus counteract the objects weight (which is the force of gravity pulling said object down)\n\nmass X volume = density which is a factor in determining a force acting upon the object; a force working to cause the object to disperse within the less dense fluid or conversely the fluid to compress and colapse the object\n\nSo the author of the question given is expecting the answer: weight

i'm gay and my mom doesn't know what should i do?

Well Sweety, honesty is in most cases the best policy. Don't you think that she will find out one day? I would sit down with her and tell her that you need to tell her something that she might find shocking or that she might be upset about. Then, tell her, "Mom, I want you to know how much I love you and what a good mother you've always been (if this is true), and I need you to hear me out and try to stand by me, because I really need you now." Something to that effect. You may want to pick up some literature on parental understanding and support for parents of gay children. There's no real easy way to do it but I can tell that it's something you must do for your own peace of mind. I'm a mother and I can tell you that for most mothers, there is nothing that will change their love for their children, even if they are upset. The bond is so very strong between mother and child that I'm willing to bet that she will not stop loving you. She may be upset and unaccepting at first but if you keep the lines of communication open, you will work things out. Good luck, Honey.

how many men is too many to have slept with?

I think it depends on the person and age.  If you are 40 you will obviously have the oppertunity to have a much higher number than a 20 year old.  If you are just sleeping with everything with legs then you might have a problem.  If these guys are at least somewhat relationships with a few randoms here or there it's ok.


Are there any risks on America's security in having outsource-business with Dubai?

People seem to be forgetting that U.A.E. is a very valuable ally.  George Bush probably knows much more than we realize.  If he does the U.A.E. this favor, the U.S. will almost definitely get a very valuable favor in return.  We are also forgetting that the current leader of U.A.E. is close to death (maybe he is even dead already, for as much as I know).  This man is a very good friend of the U.S., but there is no guarantee that his successor will be.  If we do the U.A.E. this favor, we increase the liklihood that they will remain our valuable ally.

What is the relation between the risk and the interest in money and banking?  thanks?

The main risk in backing is opportunity cost.  Example\nIf you put $1,000 in a saving account that is FDIC insured the risk would be 0, but the interest rate would be low as well. If you put $1,000 in a corporate bond or an uninsured CD, your risk would be higher, but so would the interest rate.  The higher the risk, the higher the return should be.\n\nThe opportunity cost associated with the lower risk is how much return you could have gotten had you choosen a riskier investment.\n\n1,000 in savings = 2 % a year later risk free\n1,000 in CD = 5 % a year later with relativly low risk\n1,000 in Corrporate Bond= 7.5% a year later with medium risk\n1,000 in Blue Chip Stock= 10% a year later with higher risk\n1,000 in tech Stock = 14 % a year later with a chance you could loose all invested moneys.\n1,000 in lottery ticks = millionare or loose it all

Do you feel that you have to believe in God to be a good person?

For me, a belief in God through Jesus Christ is not a vehicle by which I seek to attain the lofty heights of “good person” status, neither is it inspired by something as vague as a “feel”. It is far more definite than that and I thank the Lord that He has helped me to see these things with clarity.\n\nBut getting back to the crux your question, there are many people that have led a more righteous life than I (and others professing to be Christian), who perhaps from our limited human perspective would “deserve” to be way ahead in the queue for receiving God’s salvation.\n\nThe properly understood, “Good News” of the Gospel however is that we do not (and can not) receive the gift of God’s salvation by means of any good deeds or works that we can muster. There is simply nothing that we can do well enough to “earn” our salvation.\n\nWe need no preparation, (it’s futile), we come as we are (because God’s love is unconditional), we do not put it off (it’s the devil at work), we place our trust in Jesus, the Son of God (His blood, our only means of salvation), and we believe it in our hearts, confess with our lips and receive…… We are born again …...and with God’s help and the guidance of His Holy Spirit we become His “work in progress”.\n\nAs for being a good person, I believe that every true Christian strives to fit that bill as indeed plenty of non-Christians do also.  You do not need to be Christian to be good, you do not become Christian by being good but good (or heading that way) is what every true Christian should be.\n\nMat 6:33\nBut seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.


Taken from a website for kids:\n\nif your stomach makes noises, that means things are working well down there. The stomach naturally churns about, and is full of gastric juices to help aid digestion. If your tummy is grumbling, that's probably because you swallowed some air along with your food! This is perfectly fine, and in fact helps the food slosh around so it can be digested faster. Sometimes your stomach growls when it's upset -- in that case you should ask your parent or teacher for some tummy medicine.
