Should a NBA player who's team didn't make the playoffs be awarded the MVP trophy?

Maybe they've been "considered" for MVP, never will they be awarded the trophy. The only reason they'll consider a player from a non-playoff contending team is they'll look at most likely, the last half of the season, and check out that players superior stats, versus how his team did in that span. A team can lose the first 40 games of the season, then turn around and win the last 40 games.... when they won the last 40 they could've had a player single-handedly boost them into an "almost" playoff spot. Maybe the player's averaged 40 pts, 12 rebounds, 10 assists...(extreme example). He was able to bring his crappy team into the NBA spotlight by going on a 2nd half season tear. But for now, don't get a headache, a VERY extreme circumstance would have to happen before a player from a crappy team gets awarded the MVP. And it won't happen.


where are all the nice guys?  any out there????

No, I think you are being realistic.  I think intelligent men probably hang out at bars and stuff too, but they probably aren't as brash and stand out like the others.  They are probably more low-keyed.  One way of possibly meeting some is thru your friends and family.  Hopefully, they would be a good judge of character for you.

Why don't people love God and desire to do his will?

Real Simply - Man is sinful.\n\nGod gave us free will; we chose to turn from God and carry out our own desires.  This free will was given to us to determine those of us who are going to follow Jesus to the cross.

Why do people say Lebron is better than Kobe?

I have to agree with you all the way. Lebron isnt even close to kobe. Kobe might end up getting 5 rings. Lebron might end up with 0 or 1. Kobe is the most talented. He has better passes but the only problem is that he has no1 to pass too. Also when you're that good you want to shoot a lot. He wins games single handedly for his team. WHen Kobes career is over he should be considered the best that ever played th game.

My 3yr old wants to see army trucks. Where is there a base that allows visits for that?

First of all, it's adorable that your son wants to "See army trucks"  He sounds like a cool kid and a badass.\n\nSecond, the link in the post above me is a good source of Military bases and their locations; but it isnt all you need to know.  The kind of trucks your son is talking about are called M-35s, M-900s, M-1078/83's and Humvees and they are NOT at every military base.  I would hate for you guys to travel all the way to a base to find that they dont have prime movers.  So make sure you call ahead and ask for those trucks.\n\nAs far as talking to a General, that's pretty unlikely.  Generals are very rare and very busy.  I couldnt talk to a General if I wanted to.\nBut if you need help with the truck issue I'd be happy to help any way that I can.


What is the answer to "_________ is a fragment of one kind of rock found within another kind of rock?"

A xenolith is an older rock fragment found w/in a newer rock.\n\nIt comes from the Greek which literally translates to "foreign rock".\n\nA xenolith is considered to be an inclusion. Inclusions are any material (rock or fossil) that is older than the rock it is found in.\n\nHope this helps.\n\n:)


Would you want to live if you were in constant pain?

Jack has a point - I have constant low level pain which (  before I had it ) I thought would be intolerable but now I notice it less frequently and since it is unlikely that I will ever be entirely pain free I have accepted it and adapt my life around it (pace of activity, level of activity, delegation!! etc helps) I remember what it was like to be pain free and I am sad to think I will never have that again and never have the energy levels I once had as I am full of enthusiasm and plans to do lots. But I have just altered my plans rather than lose them.\n\nTo Jerzeygirl I would just like to say that people will naturally feel sadness and loss when someone dies, and to deny them that is not helpful. Our emotions help us to think about he person, grieve, accept, and ultimately move on ... but it takes time.\nHomily for the day finished !

My hubby has a low sex drive and i have an enormous one!!?

Sweety, I have had this same problem.  I once told my husband a story about a woman who ate an entire chocolate cake and then someone offered her a piece of cake and she refused because she was so full.  But then one day she hadn't had any cake for weeks and someone offered her a piece and even though it wasn't her favorite flavor she took it anyway because she hadn't had any cake for so long.  My husband seemed to understand that I was talking about getting enough sex or the alternative- cheating (which I would never do but there's no reason not to keep him on his toes, right) and now whenever I think it's been too long, I just tell him I'm really hungry for chocolate cake and he usually gets the point.  Best wishes

how can sex education at primary and secondary level help in minimizingor reducing the spread of hiv/aids?

How aids spreads and how the spreading of it can be prevented. This should be taught.\nAlso, what aids is, how it affects the human life. If possible, bringing volunteer patients into the classroom to share their own experiences would probably be effective. I'm not exactly sure about "primary level", though. Probably this should begin at grade 5 or so.

Do you believe in the dath penalty? If so, what crime do you think is severe enough to use it?

I want to say I believe.  As a matter of fact most of my life I was the strongest supporter of the death penalty....UNTIL\n\nUnlike some of the other people who have posted to this question....I have first hand experience to what happens when you are incarcerated.  \nThere is no internet, gym, phone time, lounge time....\nMost inmates get limited 10 minute calls once a week to people who are on their call list.....NO INTERNET......, NO GYM, lounge time is confined to your bunk....which usually doesn't even have a pillow.  Showers are with others and you crap in front of the guards.  \nOh and death row inmates or lifers get worse than that.  \nAll you have in prison is time to think.  What could be worse than your mind killing you slowly.  Every day you have to think about what you did, the people you lost and/or affected.  Day in and day out....memories, thoughts.....that is a slow horrible death.....and that is what they deserve.  Every day to live with the consequence of what they did.\nThat is MY complete torture....but I can't honestly say that if something was to happen to my children TOMORROW and they arrested the person who did it....that I wouldn't want him to die and know he was in the ground.  BUT...what I am trying to say is slow, mental death....is PURE TORTURE.\n\nJust my thoughts though.


Which side of alumninum foil should face the food?

There might be some very slight difference in the albedo between the 'shiny' and 'dull' sides of the foil, but there's probably more variation in your oven temperature than there would be a difference between which side of the foil you use.\n\nThe shiny side is created when the roll of aluminum foil is spun off the rollers in the packaging plant, and the side against the roller gets burnished as it reels out.  Both sides are very nearly equal in their heat reflection abilities, and so you can use either side without fear that the other side may have 'worked better'.


when x3+3x2-2x+7 is divided by x+1, the remainder is?

If you set this up as a long division problem with x+1 on the outside and x^3 + 3x^2 - 2x + 7 inside and solve it like a long division problem, you will have x^2 + 2x - 4 on the top and a remainder of 11.  The remainder part is the leftover after the long division - no need to put it over x+1 (when you have 14 divided by 5, you have 2 remainder 4, not 2 remainder 4/5).

Donovan Bailey (born December 16, 1967) is a former Canadian athlete.\n\nIn June of 1997 he raced against Michael Johnson in a 150m race at Toronto's SkyDome (now Rogers Centre), in a bid to truly determine who was the world's fastest man. He won $2 million for winning that race, in which Johnson pulled up lame at the 100m mark with an injured quadricep muscle.

The Great Idea Finder credits Johnson and Johnson Co. with inventing duct tape in 1942. (see link below)\n\nRichard Drew invented adhesive tape (masking tape). \n\n"Adhesive tape (specifically masking tape) was invented in the 1920's by Richard Drew of Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing, Co.

I am a permanent resident thinking about obtaining u.s citizenship?

Although U.S. statutes are silent on dual citizenship, U.S. courts have ruled that there's no law prohibiting it. It is a matter of policy not to encourage dual citizenship even though U.S. recognises it.\n\nWhen you are naturalised as a U.S. citizen, the U.S. considers that you have renounced all other nationality or subjecthood. But U.S. generally does not notify foreign authorities about this, and your home country may not recognise, or even be aware of, such renunciation.

Sorry hon, but this is a case that you can't do much with. THey are messing with stuff that will get them in trouble and messup their entire lives. You may just have to decide that you need new friends, before they bring you down too.\n\nI had a friend in hs like that, SHe was always messing with older guys and trying to get me too.

It really hurt, because she choose the drugs and the boys over our friendship, but I am glad I did it. \n\nShe has like four kids with four guys and is always high on meth. I am glad that my life isn't like that. But I am really sad when I see her like that.\n\nBottom line, you have to do what is best for you, your pot-head friends will drag you down.


How do you write a good introduction and conclusion?

In the introduction, give a general idea of the issue, question, or ideas you are going to write about.

What do you think about Muslim terrorism ?

As far as I understand it, it is against their own religion.  Therefore they are being inconsistent and hypocritical.  Mohammed was a peaceful leader and yet they blasphemed his name themselves by rising up in such a violent way to 'protect' his good name during the incident of the cartoons.  What of the fact that they have slandered the Christian icon Jesus?  Yet, they don't expect Christians to rise up against them do they?  \nOr is that what they want?  Another holy war to make life interesting?  To lose their loved ones in bitter rage in the name of religions that have both preached peace and love (in spite of admitting only one God)?\nIf it were a matter of severe oppression and humiliation it would be understandable, but still not justified in the eyes of their own religion.  But it is not.  Muslims are accepted worldwide nowadays due to religious tolerance.  They are making THEMSELVES feared and hated through their own actions.  Should others rise up against their religion in the name of their own (as of old) and try to dominate them in the name of THEIR one true God?  Perhaps this would gain a grudging respect from Muslims and matters might calm down.


how old was ronald reagan when he was shot?


A chalazion, also known as a Meibomian gland lipogranuloma, is a cyst in the eyelid that is caused by inflammation of the meibomian gland, usually on the upper eyelid. Chalazions differ from hordeolums in that they are usually painless apart from the tenderness caused when they swell up. A chalazion may eventually disappear on its own after a few months, though more often than not, some treatment is necessary.\n\nSigns and symptoms\nPainful swelling on the eyelid \nEyelid tenderness \nSensitivity to light \nIncreased tearing \n\nTreatment\n\nThe primary treatment is application of warm compresses for 10 - 20 minutes at least 4 times a day. This may soften the hardened oils blocking the duct and promote drainage and healing.\n\nTopical antibiotic eye drops or ointment (eg chloramphenicol or fusidic acid) are sometimes used for the initial acute infection, but are otherwise of little value in treating a chalazion. Chalazia will often disappear without further treatment within a month or so.\n\nIf they continue to enlarge or fail to settle within a few months, they may be surgically removed using local anesthesia. This is usually done from underneath the eyelid to avoid a scar on the skin. Rarely chalazia may reoccur and these will be biopsied to help rule out tumors.\n\n\nComplications\n\nA large chalazion can cause astigmatism due to pressure on the cornea. This will resolve with resolution of the chalazion.\n\n\nPrevention\n\nProper cleansing of the eyelid may prevent recurrences in people prone to chalazia. Cleaning the eyelash area with diluted baby shampoo will help reduce clogging of the ducts.


How do I become and excellent sales person?

You will probably get lots of different answers, but my opinion on what makes a good sales person is this:\n\n1) product knowledge - yours and your competitors! You have to know how to position your product and respond to any objections to be able to effectively offer your product as a solution to meet the buyers need.\n\n2) develop a relationship built upon trust, honesty, integrity - your competitor may do the "hard sell" but developing an honest relationship will lead to word of mouth referrals and customers for life! Get to know the individual, their office staff (gate keepers), their business, their competition, their market space so that you can position your product to completely meet their needs.\n\n3) once you have developed a relationship and you know your product is the right solution, ask for the business. Customers expect it and if you have responded to any objections, developed an honest relationship, then you should be in a nice position to close the deal.\n\n4) for customer that provide on-going sales - thank them for the business. Let me know how important they are and that you value them as a customer. Ask them to recommend your product to colleagues.\n\nGood luck!

Considering the stark military warning just issued to the USA by Iran, can they defeat our nation?

I think its a bold assumtion made by a country who isnt considering the fullness of our power. \n\nnot that we've exibited it. we're like a lame duck or a clumsy prom date. pretended to be united as a nation and fight a war in iraq and stand behind out souldiers. if i had to base our muscle on this whole endevor, and the solidity of our nation, id have to admit we're looking more and more like sitting ducks.\n\nwe're too busy hating our goverment, and killing eachother to unite to fight if someone attacked the nation. We lost over 2000 lives when the towers fell,and for a few months everyone was united over stopping terroism bar no cost. where are those people now? gripe'n about every damn move the war takes, and decision the president makes. oo war is bad, wah wah cry cry.\n\nwe're a huge cluster f**k waiting to be torn apart. \n\nIn all honesty thats my opinion. i havent heard of this nation standing together united over a war in over 60 years. This is what happens when hippies take over. love and peace and getting our asses kicked by N korea and china and iran. who have all not only threatened our interests but DARED us to intervine.\n\npolitics are politics. People die, wars are fought, things are gained and lost. and people are united, or else they fall. damnit people. we shoud all be building fall out shelters. if its not iran its the next country.

what grammar rule makes "I heard him sing the song" correct, but "I heard him sang the song" wrong?

There are not really "grammar rules" about this, because native speakers don't do it the other way.\n\nHowever, as a linguist, here's how I would analyze this sentence:\n\nI heard [him sing a song].\n\nThe bracketed part of this sentence is kind of like a nonfinite clause.  The subject of this clause is "him", and the verb of this clause is "sing".  Because it's a nonfinite clause, the verb does not need to be conjugated, so it appears in its basic form, "sing".\n\n(By the way, the reason it's "I heard him sing a song" and not "I heard he sing a song" is called Exceptional Case Marking.  Depending on how into linguistics you are, you might want to take a syntax class if you really like stuff like this!)

thermistor is a type of resistor used to measure temperature changes, relying on the change in its resistance with changing temperature. Thermistor is a portmanteau of the words thermal and resistor.\n\nIf we assume that the relationship between resistance and temperature is linear (i.e. we make a first-order approximation), then we can say that:\n\nΔR = kΔT \nwhere\n\nΔR = change in resistance \nΔT = change in temperature \nk = first-order temperature coefficient of resistance \nThermistors can be classified into two types depending on the sign of k. If k is positive, the resistance increases with increasing temperature, and the device is called a positive temperature coefficient (PTC) thermistor, posistor or sensistor. If k is negative, the resistance decreases with increasing temperature, and the device is called a negative temperature coefficient (NTC) thermistor. Resistors that are not thermistors are designed to have the smallest possible k, so that their resistance remains almost constant over a wide temperature range.

(see the Astrix's and the notes below):\n\nAbsorbent Compresses (2 5"x9" dressings)\nAdhesive Bandages (25 in assorted sizes)\nAdhesive Cloth Tape (10 yards x 1")\nAntibiotic Ointment Packets (5, approximately 1 gram each)*\nAntiseptic Wipes (5 packets)\nAspirin (2 packets, 81mg each)**\nSpace Blanket\nBreathing Barrier (with a one-way valve)\nInstant Cold Compress***\nNon-Latex Gloves (2 pair, size large)\nHydrocortisone Ointment (2 packets, approximately 1 gram each)****\nScissors\n3" Roller Bandage\n4" Roller Bandage\nSterile Gauze (5, 3" x 3" pads)\nSterile Gauze (5, 4" x 4" pads)\nOral Thermometer (Non-Mercury/Non-Glass)*****\nTriangular Bandages (2)\nTweezers\nFirst Aid Instruction Booklet\n\n* Antibiotic ointment is not permitted to be applied to children by staff unless 1. The ointment is labelled by a pharmacist/doctor with the child's name, the dosage amount and dosage times, and 2. Written permission is provided by parent/guardian.\n** Asprin is not suitable. We stock children's panadol and put a clause in the child's enrollment that the parents sign stating that if their child's temperature rises above 30degreesC and they cannot be contacted.\n*** Instant cold compresses are very important. I would suggest investing in several. You need to either invest in re-usable ones and disposable covers (you can use paper towel or nappy liners) or spend lots of money on single use compresses.\n**** Hydrocortisone Ointment is not allowed to be applied without proper paperwork and permission. See first point.\n***** Oral thermometers are much better for children. Do not buy an instant ear thermometer as they are not acurate in children under 10 years.\n\nSorry this is so long, but I hope it helps a little!

She sat in the front, and refused to get up for a white man.  Her arrest started the successful boycott of buses; this lead to intergration on buses.  This happened in Alabama or Atlanta...I think.


Rep. Cynthia McKinney, If she can punch a police officer and not get arrested why can't we all do it?

People in positions of power, regardless of race, often receive a lot of leeway in legal matters that would land most of the common people in jail. Consider Ted Kennedy (got away with manslaughter), the head honchos at Enron (getting off pretty light compared to all the people whose retirements have been ruined), O.J. Simpson and Robert Blake (they should team up to catch the "real killers") and the list goes on...

How many people would seriously support Bush's impeachment?

You’re quite right about the grounds for impeachment.  Here is a more complete list of impeachable offenses for which Bush is guilty of:\n\nBush lied to Congress and the American public about the reasons for invading Iraq, conducted illegal wiretaps of American citizens, violated International Law by invading a sovereign country for illegal purposes, violated the Geneva Convention by torturing prisoners of war, held prisoners without formal charges and without legal representation, used government funds for domestic political propaganda, the Bush team used uniformed military personnel for Republican party political purposes, was negligent in his slow response to help victims of Hurricane Katrina, and shows contempt towards our Constitution and our democratic ideals.\n\nI do believe in proceeding with the impeachment process.  Congressman John Conyers and 29 cosponsors have already introduced a bill to form an impeachment panel.\n\nTrue, Bush is just a Cheney puppet, but since so many people feel this administration has done nothing wrong, impeachment might open the eyes of those die hard supporters who doubt the truth.  Cheney would never be able to win a presidential election.   Cheney’s involvement with Halliburton, his health, avoidance of the draft, and his brash, defiant attitude would never survive the scrutiny of a presidential election.\n\nAs for approval ratings, when the approval rating is pro either side’s candidate the party with the highest approval rating acknowledges those results; when the ratings, which are obtained from the exact same sources are negative toward their party, they claim the results are slanted and corrupt.\n\nFor those who aren’t clear on the grounds for impeachment, please go to the link posted below.

Does a person have to be dead to be considered a saint?

Saint means sanctified. When we accept Jesus into our heart, the bible says that we are indwelt by the holy spirit. So regardless of papal or catholic declarations, all those who truly have made Jesus their lord and savior are Saints. It is His blood that has washed us clean of all iniquity and we are sanctified by Him, made Saints by Him.


why I suffer from frequent headache and eye pains?

Another effective means is to use natural apple cider vinegar . Equal parts of natural apple cider vinegar and water should be placed in a small pan on the stove, allowing it to boil slowly. When the fumes begin to rise from the pan, lean your head over it until the fumes are comfortably strong. Inhale for approximately 50 to 80 breaths. This generally alleviates the headache considerably, if not entirely.\n\nMoisten your fingertips with Pure Almond Carrier Oil then add two drops of Lavender Essential Oil. In a circular motion, gently massage your temples, the hollows at the sides of your eyes, behind your ears, and over your neck.


How are the messages of Jesus and Muhammad being carried out today?

Hello superhomer1221.. :)\n\nBy spreading the Love of Jesus and the Gospel..not by mere words, but by our actions which will show others, pure undefiled Love from within our hearts..for many have gone forth not preaching Love, but hate, anger and resentment..from such turn away..for Jesus came preaching Love, Peace, Joy and forgiveness.. :)\n\nWe are all called to preach the word, in season and out of season..We are not to condemn or judge those that do not know our Heavenly Father..but to show Love..For this you will know, that they have Love one towards another.. :)\n\nWe must put others needs before that of our own..when we see someone in need and we have it to give and we do not..we are disobeying our Lord..Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself, ye do well: but if ye have respect to persons, ye commit sin, and are convinced of the law as transgressors.\nFor whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.\nIf a brother or sister be naked, and destitute of daily food, and one of you say unto them, Depart in peace, be ye warmed and filled; notwithstanding ye give them not those things which are needful to the body; what doth it profit?\nEven so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone.\n \nJesus said: If ye have done it unto the least of my brethren, ye have done it unto me..which means clothes, food etc.. :)\n\nIn Jesus Most Precious Name..\nWith Love In Christ..

How necessay is tDNA if I want to infect A.thaliana with a plasmid?

From my understanding tDNA is important, at very least for tagging but I believe it is also important for the transfer of the intesert into the A. thaliana genome.\n\nYou can still detect the insertion of the transgene because you would usually insert an antibiotic resistance gene with the gene of interest. You can then use this to select for plants that have the gene inserted.\n\nThen, to find out where in the genome the transgene has inserted, you need to map it. There are many techniques for doing this, but if you know the sequence of your gene of interest or the antibiotic resistance gene, you should be able to use fragments of the genes as probes on gene libraries etc etc etc, there are probably also fancy ways you could use genomic to achieve this too.


Does anyone else think allowing amnesty to illegal aliens is NOT FAIR to those who are 'waiting in line'?

Yes. We should not allow amnesty to any illegals. I mean, does the term "illegal" mean anything anymore? I don't understand why some people are willing to ignore the laws of our land. We may as well open up our borders and not control any immigration. THat;s what the mexicans are saying! They do not want to assimilate but DO want to change our country to be like thier old one, but with jobs.

Artificial transmulation of elements is possible if atomic number of the element is greater than 20.?

False, because the binding energy increases steeply till iron and again reduces. So I would require enormous accelerators to transmute the element with Z>20.

Live on cheap groceries.  Use half the amount of laundry detergent per load - still cleans fine.  Wash dishes and use cloth towels instead of buying alot of paper products.  Drink more tap water and less pop.  Watch what's on TV and don't go out as much.


Hello,,\n     I had the same question a year ago...  I have few suggestions if you like that I tried on myself. Why don't you do a career program that will be completed in few months ,, may be 8 and then you can have a job.. you can do medical assistance or office assistance or something that take less than a year ... yo will have a job and become independent.... and when you have a job and are settled then you can go for bachelors online because online classes are cheaper and easier .. you can sit on your bed and do your homework and only spend 2 to 3 hours daily .... This can be best with your job and some companies offer tuition refund .... This is just a suggestion and if you do not like it never mind ...

I need to do 80 hours of court ordered community here in south bend or mishawaka indiana, i need some ideas.?

Difference in swing between opposite field HRs vs pulling the ball? read details pls?

There are several reasons why someone would pull the ball or hit to the opposite field. If a hitter hits to the opposite field, it could be that his timing was off and he was late on the pitch or if the pitch was outside you would get more power by hitting to the opposite field. That is what they mean when they say go with the pitch. \nIf your early on the pitch you will pull it, or if the pitch is inside you will turn on it and take it to the pull field. If someone is injured in the hips or knee's and has a hard time turning their hips or knee's they wont be able to turn on a ball and pull it as well as just to take it to the opposite field and swing with more arms than body.


I suppose I am guilty of the desperation prayers: "Please, please, please save my wretched *ss THIS time, and I'll never do this again! Never, never, never!"  :-))\n\nBut That Which Is always...IS. Throughout the day, my heart rises spontaneously in thanksgiving and gratitude, for my luck (Oh! No, no, no! That is ANOTHER question!)  :-)) For what I have been given, for all that I have, for the very good people who love me, for the incredible, sustaining beauty of the natural world.\n\nSometimes I am not sure to Whom I am praying, but my heart rises, anyway!\n\nThe only serious (the save-my-butt stuff isn't really serious, in my opinion) prayers I say are to ask for knowledge of God's will, and the power to carry it out.\n\nSometimes I toss in a request for strength, and understanding.


what do u think bout sites like friendster and hi5?

I prefer myspace, i like them because its very easy to keep in touch with friends you may not see or speak to all the time also with the music feature you can find out about artists old or new that you wouldn't have come accross if you hadn't come upon their music on the site.


What does an A&R person do? and how do they get paid?

Usually they are the enemy.\n\nEvery major label involved in the hunt for new bands now has on staff a high-profile point man, an "A & R" rep who can present a comfortable face to any prospective band. The initials stand for "Artist and Repertoire." because historically, the A & R staff would select artists to record music that they had also selected, out of an available pool of each. This is still the case, though not openly. These guys are universally young [about the same age as the bands being wooed], and nowadays they always have some obvious underground rock credibility flag they can wave.


If they blessed the oceans, and turned them into holy water, would we have more than just holy mackerel?

No.  The water would be blessed, but I don't think the things in the water would become holy.  You would have to bless those too.  Just my opinion, I can be changed with the right argument.


Can someone tell exactly why we have to have daylight savings time because I hate it.?

The system began back in the agricultural era where the children also had to work on the farms.  It is thought that cows will only give milk when it is light out, so they changed the clocks so the kids could go do their chores then go to school.

relations between mnlf, milf and abu sayaff.?

There is no collaborative relationship between these movements although they all seem to have similar political objectives in the Phillipines.

The Abu Sayyaf is the most radical of the seperatist groups and is alot smaller than the other two.

Will we ever have the technology to travel to the speed of light?

Believe it or not, we already have it and use it everyday. I want to answer this in detail, but I cant disclose the true nature of how light travels until I publish.\nI will say that light that is propagated within a closed system can and does move at superluminal speeds relative to a location outside the closed system.\n\nI know-Everybody has a theory, but I can also explain why light bends at every instance without once referring to the fabric of space/time.\n\nWhat if Einstein was WRONG...errr...ok... (just so I dont offend anyone) not completely correct? What if light actually didnt travel by propelling itself into the electromagnetic field created by....itself? What if there was no such thing as a pure vacuum with zero atomic content? (by the way, there is no such vacuum.)\nResearch it, its true, there are always atoms left over to fill the space left by the vacated ones.\nDon't you find that at least a little interesting?  No such thing as a pure vacuum?


How has modern technology changed the military powers of the executive and legislative branches of government.

Hasn't changed one bit. \nThe President only makes war with the approval of Congress. In the President's role as Commander in Chief he would act to protect the country and its interests in times of emergency.\nThis does not give him the authority to ignore the Constitution he takes an oath to defend and protect. Wiretaps still need the judicial branch.\nTechnology in terms of nukes, rockets and airplanes is the biggest change.


What Athlete Should be Punched in the Face?

I'm still trying to deccipher how ESPN (and yes, I know the E stands for Entertainment, but come on...) can show poker series.  Are they considered athletes somehow?\n\nBut seriously, my gut reaction would be Bode Miller for pulling one of the world's all-time greatest chokes and then poking fun at his married teammate because he didn't party it up in Torino like Miller did.  Good call, Bode.  I want to make the Olypics just so I can drink at bars in a city other than Truckee, CA.

how can i measure the hight of wave in a shallow pond?

You could place a vertical rod in the pond (on a stand or stuck in the mud?) and start the experiment when the rod is dry.  After you create the wave and the surface returns to rest, measure the height of the wave on the rod.  This will be the maximum height of the waves at the given point and will depend on the location of the disturbance (radiates outwards like a bullseye?).  Also, there should be nothing near the rod to magnify the wave (including shore effect or irregular bottom?).  Applying chalk to the rod (especially blue chalk?) may make the wetted height more visible and resist drying too fast.  Including a scale on the rod may allow you to read the wetted height above calm surface easier, especially using binoculars.  The trough should approximately equal the wave height.  Good luck.

how is the value of Rupee against dollar determined or for the matter any currency?

Its pure supply and demand... or at least in principle. If all countries had an open economy, where their currencies where in a floating rate, instead of a fixed rate, supply and demand for that currency would determine its price. Lets say, mexican peso vs dollar. If today the exchange rate is $11.09 pesos for dollar and in the course of the day, international investors come and inyect more dollars to the mexican economy (stock market, funds, etc.), and that is greater than the amount of dollars that go out of the country, then people are demanding more pesos than dollars in that specific day. To put your money on mexican market, you have to do it in pesos, so what happens to your dollars? They are transformed to pesos... making the demand for peso higher than that for dollar. Exchange rate should go down... say $11.01. What determines this? Many factors. The stock market in Mexico has been booming for 2 years, so in 2005, the peso aprreciated against the dollar by almost 7%. But with the Feds moving intreset rates up, money is going to the US since it is less risky and the rates are going up, while in México rates are going down. So this year, dollar has gained value against the peso. \nSystematic error determines where the money goes, and who ever gets more of it would have its currency in better value.


When all is said and done ,most of the illegal immigrants in this country are....?

my opinion will not change.  This is AMERICA -- why can't we open our arms/hearts/states/cities/neighborhoods, and allow them to have the same basic HUMAN rights that everyone has/wants, here in this country..... :::climbing off my soapbox:::


Why are currency symbols made up of a letter with two lines through it?

i'm not sure how accurate this is but apparently the dollar ($) symbol originally started off as a letter "U" superimposed onto a letter "S" to indicate that the currency was from the US and over time the bottom of the U was dropped off as the dollar was adopted by other countries so it was just left as an S with 2 vertical lines through it.\ni'm not too sure about the other currency symbols though.

Do you think the devil is capable of appearing/looking like deceased loved ones?

Yes, the devil is capable of doing this. More so, it is his angels (demons) that do it. The devil is mainly too busy working on his antichrist plans. But demons are very good at disguising themselves as dead loved ones. They can even make you think that they are being helpful, so that you will want to keep your dead loved ones around, and even begin talking to them. God warns us not to talk to anything else, not even His beautiful angels. You must only talk to God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit. \n\nThere are no familiars, no ghosts, no dead human spirits of any sort. If an angel ever appears to you, you can test it by commanding it to leave in the name of Jesus. Demons must obey because they are terrified of Him.


what were the two main disagreements between the U.S. and Great Britain that led to war?

In the revolutionary war, it was commerce and trade laws- The colonies were put under restrictive trade rules that required them to trade only with Britain, and these laws were passed by a parliament that had no colonian representation.  The other major conflict was that Britain inhibited movement of settlers west of the Appalachians.  These were the two major friction points.  In the other war, 1812, it was British raiding US trading ships, confiscating cargo, and taking sailors for conscription into the British navy.


is there a house remedy to help avoid perspiration in feet? or How to make your feet dry?

No, you cannot prevent perspiration in your feet.  Adolescence is a time of life when sweaty feet can be really annoying and embarrasing. The problem usually lessens as we grow older.  Until then, bathing your feet daily with mild soap and water, drying them thoroughly, and putting on dry socks and clean, dry shoes or sneaks is really the best you can do.  You might need to change your socks two times a day, or even three if you're quite athletic.\n\nDuring the warmer season, you can utilize footwear that does not require socks, thus exposing your feet to fresh air and letting that help keep 'em dry.  Of course, if you work at a job that requires safety shoes, y'can't do that.  It's really not a good idea to walk around barefoot, though.  The risk of injury and subsequent infection to the soles of the feet is, at least in the mind of many of us health professionals, an unreasonable one.


How far beyond the planet does Earth's gravitational pull extend?

The theoretical answer is infinity as people have stated.\n\nThe practical answer is that it extends until another body's influence makes earths influence negligible.  Example, jupiter's satellites are not strongly effected by earth in any way.

OK I had this  scary dream and it keeps rolling back almost every time I sleep what should I do?

I had this problem. i can suggest several things that should help. i agree that meditation may help.also taking up Tai Chi could help as well. This will help ease the symptoms andstop you worrying about it. As the dream itself can't bother you but worrying about it can. There is something in your life that is causing you anxiety, possibly you feel as though you are not in control of your life in some way. Perhaps you have a dominant or abusive patner or you feel that you are not doing what you should be doing with your life. Sort this out and the dream will go. Avoid scary movies, books and computer games befor sleeping. Sleep with fesh air in the room and avoid your head getting to hot. Read something calming or inspiring before you go to sleep or listen to peaceful music. Make your bedrom a haven of peace and harmony. Try new bedding, a clear out of all junk. Unplug phones and electrical equipment and have soothing colours. Do not store anything under your bed or have a mirror above or opposite it. Don't have posters on the walls unless they are harmonious. Yourdream shows that you are troubled in some way and probably not admitting it. Only you know what is really going on in your ife. I wish you well.

Does anyone have any informaton on joaquin murietta's family? plz help me?

Joaquin Murrieta: Literary Fiction or Historical Fact?\nBy William Mero\n\nThe popular legend of Joaquin Murrieta is that of a peace loving man driven to seek revenge when he and his brother were falsely accused of stealing a mule. His brother was hung and Joaquin horsewhipped. His young wife was gang raped and in one version she died in Joaquin’s arms. Swearing revenge, Joaquin hunted down all who had violated his sweetheart. He embarked on a short but violent career that brought death to his Anglo tormentors. The state of California then offered a reward of up to $5000 for Joaquin "dead or alive." In the end Joaquin was hunted down, killed and mutilated by a drunken brute of a man, Harry Love. \n\nThis is the tale that a sometimes newspaperman and poet, John Rollin Ridge, wrote in 1854, a year after Joaquin’s death. John Ridge was a part Cherokee Indian who fled to California after killing a man in Arkansas. Borrowing from newspaper reports from the gold camps, he created a romantic story of lust and revenge starring the recently dead bandit, Joaquin Murrieta, as the victim of biased society. \n\nAfter Ridge’s book was published, it was rumored that Joaquin had not been killed but returned to Mexico. Even more fantastic was the story that he returned mortally wounded to Niles Canyon (part of Contra Costa County in 1853) where he died and was buried beneath the family adobe. In 1986 the adobe floor was even excavated in an unsuccessful attempt to find Murrieta’s bones. \n\nOn one hand we have the popular belief exemplified by the famous histories of Hubert Howe Bancroft who legitimized the Ridge version of Joaquin as a daring Mexican Robin Hood. We also have modern historians who charge that the real Murrieta was a vicious killer and thug. \n\nWhat can we make of all this? Can we find a general consensus after examining the known facts? Joseph Henry Jackson in his book, Bad Company (1949), carefully traced the evolution and growth of the Joaquin Murrieta legend around the world. Later researchers including Frank Latta, William B. Secrest, Remi Nadeau, James F. Varley and John Boessenecker uncovered original source materials that clarified this violent chapter in California history. \n\n\nThe Known Historical Record\nInteresting historical parallels exist between the Murrieta – Feliz family and the James – Younger gang. In both cases close relatives formed the core of the outlaw gangs. Both bands were spawned in the economic and political upheaval of a society disrupted by war. The gangs were sheltered and protected by citizens who were threatened by the new economic and social order. Strangely, in both cases, it was also newspapermen who built these outlaws into sympathic victims of an unjust society. \n\nWhat are the generally accepted and verified historical facts about Joaquin Murrieta? We know from Church records that Joaquin was born in the southern part of the Mexican state of Sonora in 1830 to Joaquin and Rosalia Murrieta. His mother had been previously married to a man named Carrillo. In later years Joaquin sometimes called himself Joaquin Carrillo, which led to much confusion and helped create the "many Joaquins" theory. The young Joaquin eventually married Rosa Feliz of Vayoreca. They, along with Jesus Murrieta and Rosa’s three brothers, went to California upon news of the gold strike. Rosa’s brother, Claudio Feliz, began gold mining with Anglo partners near Sonora while Joaquin and his bride eventually moved to Niles Canyon, then part of Contra Costa County. In these early years there is evidence that Joaquin worked as a vaquero near Oakley and Brentwood in 1850 and as a mestenero (mustang catcher). \n\nFrom court records and newspaper accounts, the first we hear of the Murrieta - Feliz clan’s brush with the law was in 1849 when Claudio was arrested for stealing another miner’s gold. The evidence of his guilt proved overwhelming. However Claudio was able to escape from the St

I'm married, and I take the vows I made to my hubby completely serious, along with my marriage. We may not have a whole lot, but it's my own little world, and I wouldn't change it for anything. I honestly couldn't imagine my life without him in it...it just doesn't seem right. My reasons for marriage was because I knew I wanted him for the rest of my life. Of course, we didn't HAVE to get married, but I see it as a way of showing the ultimate act of love towards another. What other way is there besides devoting your life with them to share in every single aspect? \nAs far as why divorce happens more in today's times, I think people just take it as an easy way out. Marriages are not easy to maintain, and when tuff situations arise, divorce provides an easy access to just start over. It's sad that marriages are not taken seriously, and that people are starting to just see it as a signed piece of paper, rather than all that it resembles. Of course, there are always exceptions. Some divorces occur for good reasons, like abuse or constant adultery. \nReally good question. Best of luck to you in life!

Can employers send employees home if business is slow regardless of their given work schedule?

Yes they can, unless there is a contract that guarantees the employees a certain number of hours a week.  A work schedule is not a contract, so the company can have you work as few or as many hours as they wish, as long as they are not violating any state or federal laws.


What do you think of the theory of Panspermia? That would mean that we are not descendent of the apes, right?

Panspermia- that means aliens were the first life on earth, they seeded the first life, which shud be a lower life form.\nI dont agree.\n\nAnd then we evolved from the alien first life!! So, it does not disprove the evolution theory still.\nNExt, if the alien first life was just a lower life-form, it proves that they could not have had space ships (which evolved human beings havent fully mastered). Hence panspermia not feasible!!

Is it appropriate to use Wikipedia in an academic paper?

I am almost always disappointed when Wikipedia is used by my students as a source in an academic paper, and I generally warn my students against using it.  I agree with the person above who wrote that wiki articles often include basic bibliographies that can lead students to more useful sources, but in many cases, the information to be found on Wikipedia is less than satisfying.\n\nFor example, one student of mine used the wiki entry on "cargo cults," and the information he found there was misleading, and certainly not reflective of current scholarship on the subject.  Because Wikipedia is an online source that is updated often, my student thought that the information it contained would be "cutting edge."  This was a bad assumption to make.  We ended up using it in class discussion as an instructive example of the problems with Wikipedia.\n\nAcademia runs on the principle of peer review.  This means that everything a scholar attempts to publish is reviewed for integrity and quality by recognized reviewers with demonstrated expertise in the field.  The basic problem with Wikipedia is the absence of a uniform, reliable, standardized peer review process.  In other words, the "policing" is insufficient, because Wikipedia articles are not reviewed by recognized experts in the fields in question. \n\nOne final note:\nWhy don't more scholars contribute to Wikipedia themselves and make it a better site?  Well, in some cases they actually do, for the sake of students who might consult the site, but in most cases, they don't, because it wouldn't "count" as a valid publication effort, because it's not a standard, peer-reviewed endeavor!\n\n(Sorry for the length of this response, but I thought it was an important question that deserved a thoughtful reply.)

I'm sorry, they just don't want to hear from you anymore.\n\nSometimes, people just get in a mood or a little P'd off ... give it some time and let cooler heads prevail.  If you love this person and are just in a little spat, hey, a little time away for everyone to calm down might be a good thing.\n\nFor $0.39 and another $0.99 ... you can still send a nice little card with a few hand-drawn hearts (No, I'm not being sarcastic) ... been there, done that, got the T-Shirt.\n\n;-)  Good luck.

Can someone tell me why condoms are so bad for catholics when they do so much good for the rest of the world?

Problem is deeper. It's a Phylosofical problem (usually are not practic). Condom is not the problem, but behavior is.\n\nYou are not allowed to do sex before marriage. \nOnce married you are not allowed to have sex relations with other person. \nAnd MOST important of all: When you do sex, you do to have children and not to have pleasure. After 60's Pope told that having pleasure during the sex is not sin. ... since you are respecting all rules above. \n\nThese are main rules and as a Catholic, you cannot avoid it. If Catholic church allow to use condom, it means that they allow to do those wrong things too. \n\nIt's just a matter of Ethics and cause and consequence about rules. Religion cannot be flexible as moral is. Change this concept means change part of what has been teach during so long time .... and it has consequences.

How do you calculate the pH of a Buffer system when NaOH is added?

Well first of all you have not given us all the information to be able to answer this buffer question.  We need to know the Ka (6.2x10-8)of the acid.  But the steps to perform the task.  Calculate how much of the acid is neutralized by the addition of the base.  Recalculate the equilibrium concentration of both the acid and base with the new acid value.  using Ka=[H+][Na2HPO4]/[NaH2PO4] solve for H+ and finally use pH=-log[H+].  Your final answer..pH=7.25


Why do americans only watch made up over convoluted sports where only one country takes part?

The U.S. is such a huge country that we're completely content to compete against each other.  California is practically a different country from Texas.  There's plenty of rivalry there.\n\nI'm a World Cup fan, but there is simply no way you can expect Americans to enjoy soccer the way it's enjoyed everywhere else.  Many, many, many have tried and failed.  It's just not going to happen... especially now that television has changed how we enjoy sports.  American football, baseball, basketball: these all have built-in spots to break away for commercials.  Soccer doesn't.  That hurts its chances of gaining significant telelvision time here in the States.

Anyone hav an opinion on somatic fusion of animals?

i think mixing different species have both advantages n disadvantages .some of the Advantages and Disadvantages of Transgenic Crops?\nThe use of transgenic crops has been an issue for many years. Many concerns have been raised and these generally fall into two categories: \n\n\nA concern about what affect genetically modified material could have on human health. For example, transgenic crops have been suggested to cause allergies in some people, although it is uncertain whether transgenic crops are the source of this reaction3. Furthermore the antibiotic resistance genes placed in these crops has been suggested to cause resistance to antibiotics leading to super bugs that cannot be killed with antibiotic treatments3. The idea of a population being uncomfortable with ingesting DNA that originated from another source, such as a virus or bacteria, must also be considered when thinking about producing transgenic crops. However, to date, there is no evidence of the DNA from transgenic crops being any different from the DNA ingested from conventional crops. \nA concern about whether transgenic crops cause damage to the natural environment. One example includes pollen from transgenic corn, which has been suggested to kill the Monarch butterfly larvae. It has been shown that hybrid corn expresses a bacterial toxin in its pollen, which is then dispersed over 60 meters by wind. In this range, the corn pollen is deposited on other plants near cornfields where it can be ingested by non-target organisms including the monarch butterfly5. These butterflies have been found to eat less, have a slower growth rate and higher death rate5. A second example is the hybridization of crops with nearby weeds. This could cause these weeds to attain resistance to herbicides or other things that we have been trying to avoid for many years. Genes that provide resistance to viral disease or other traits allowing them to survive in their environment could end up benefiting weed populations around a crop field. This trait could make that population more difficult to control. To date, there has been little evidence to support this theory2. \nOn other side of the coin are the notions that support the use of transgenic crops. The potential benefits of which are quite obvious, including such things as increased yields (to feed a growing population), decreasing the use of pesticides (to save the environment and the cost of pesticides), and the production of novel crops (such as providing crops with increased nutritional value)3. Being able to retrofit any crop to our desires is a powerful concept, especially with the changing climates of today

over the rainbow\nmusic by Harold Arlen and lyrics by Yip Harburg, is one of the most famous songs of the late 1930s.\n\nHundreds of singers have recorded their own versions of "Over the Rainbow", most notably by Patti LaBelle, Melissa Manchester, Frank Sinatra, Willie Nelson, Linda Eder, Johnny Mathis, Jo Stafford, Doris Day, Martina McBride, Ella Fitzgerald, Olivia Newton-John, Aretha Franklin, Ramones, Metallica, Ray Charles, Harry Connick Jr, Sarah Vaughan, Faith Hill, Tony Bennett, and the late Eva Cassidy. Sam Harris performed a winning rendition on the first season of the original Star Search. Barbra Streisand, Eric Clapton, Kylie Minogue, and Garland's daughters Liza Minnelli and Lorna Luft have sung the song in concert. One of the most interesting versions was recorded by the late Hawaiian singer Israel Kamakawiwo'ole whose medley of "Rainbow" and Louis Armstrong's "What a Wonderful World" was featured on the soundtrack of the films Meet Joe Black, Finding Forrester, and 50 First Dates. James Stewart memorably warbled a rendition while carrying a "drunk" Katharine Hepburn in The Philadelphia Story. Even horror legend Vincent Price did a version in the film Dr. Phibes Rises Again.\n\nBritish television comedian Kenny Everett sometimes did comedy segments that included the unique sound of a British police car siren and Everett singing the lyrics, "Behind me!" and "That's where you'll find me!"\n\nThe cover band Me First and the Gimme Gimmes covered the song for their 1999 album Are a Drag, and in the animated series The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy, Grey Delisle sang it as her character, Mandy. Guitarist Joe Satriani occasionally covers the song at his concerts. Guitarist Ritchie Blackmore would perform a few bars of the verse at the beginning of his concerts, when he Rocked the world with his band of Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow, in those years from 1975 to 1983.\n\nIn Stephen Schwartz's musical Wicked, an adaptation of Gregory Maguire's novel, the main character, Elphaba, has a piece of music that plays at important moments in her life, the words of which are "Un-li-mi-ted, my fu-ture -" and this piece is played to the same notes (though not the same lengths) as "Some-where o-ver the rain-bow'. As the Wicked Witch of the West is Elphaba's other name, and because Dorothy and she are literary foils, this provides an ironic subtext to this song. (It also may be noted that by restricting the piece to seven notes, Schwartz prevented MGM from having the right to press legal charges against him.)\n\n\nThe Smashing Pumpkins would often include "Somewhere Over The Rainbow" in the live/jam version of "Silverfuck". This is present on the live concert album Earphoria but on the DVD Vieuphoria it is edited out, because they did not have the rights to the song. "Rainbow" can also be found on the late Ray Charles final album, Genius Loves Company, as a duet with Johnny Mathis.


Do you think the punishment for child molestation should be a $50 fine?


Well hopefully the hurt was unintentional.  If it is intentional then this person has a serious problem.  We are human and we should want happiness for everyone, but sometimes we cannot provide that for everyone.  So what we need to do is keep ourselves happy, let others be happy and live a fullfilling life staying out of others business unless they ask us for advice or help.

LOST TV SHOW. Did any one saw the tatoo of the Dharma Initative in the shark?

Was it a real shark or a fake prop like the stuff they found where they had held Claire to steal her baby... Hummm, maybe it's to keep them scared and keep them from trying to escape again...
