Where can I find information on producing transgenic mice?

i dont think you'll be able to access this without logging in to my school, so i'll paste it below in case. try publications at your school as well, pubmed is always good, as ia google.\n\nTransgenics\nThe production of transgenic mice is a gain-of-function approach to manipulation of the mouse genome (Clarke, 2002; Nagy et al., 2003; Hedrich, 2004). Transgenic mice can be designed for numerous purposes including: (1) identification and characterization of specific regulatory sequences; (2) ubiquitous or tissue-specific overexpression of a transgene; and (3) cell lineage ablation achieved by coupling a tissue-specific promoter to a sequence encoding a toxin which kills cells that express it. Transgenic mice are typically generated by microinjection of the transgene construct into the male pronucleus of fertilized oocytes, which are then reimplanted into the oviducts of foster females. Expression of the transgene is dependent on its site of integration, with individual insertion sites typically containing multiple copies of the transgene. It is important to keep in mind that transgene copy number and expression levels of the transgene do not necessarily correlate. When chromosomal integration occurs in the fertilized oocyte, the developing animal will be fully transgenic, since all nucleated cells in the animal will contain the transgene; however, if integration occurs later, at a postzygotic stage, the animal will be a mosaic, with some cells containing the transgene and others lacking it. Founders are identified through analysis of tail biopsies, and copy number and transgene integrity are then evaluated. To establish a transgenic line, a founder is bred to mice of a defined genetic background and offspring are characterized for expression of the transgene. Generally at least two founders should be maintained for experiments. Due to the nature of random integration, no two transgenic lines will be identical. Details on the identification and analysis of founders and the establishment of transgenic lines can be found in UNIT 23.9.\n\nTransgenics carrying large segments flanking a gene of interest isolated as bacterial artificial chromosomes (BACs) have been used to minimize the abovementioned variation due to the effects of different integration sites (UNIT 23.1). The versatility of this strategy has been significantly increased by the development of homologous recombination–based strategies to mutagenize and manipulate the BAC constructs (UNITS 1.16 & 23.11) and the use of regulated transgenics (e.g., with tetracycline; UNIT 23.12). In the GENSAT project (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/projects/gensat; Gong et al., 2003), for example, an atlas of gene expression in the mouse central nervous system is based on large numbers of BAC transgenics in which the protein-coding sequences of genes expressed in the brain are replaced by an EGFP reporter.


How do I find out the dates of my prior employment without having to wait weeks for the information?

just call ur HR derpt. and ask them. But when filling out an application, u only need month info. Its ok not to know the right date and it dont matter


Depends on where you are on the Earth but in the U.S. it's Fall


The first two answers are both correct, depending on the context.  Disease (including viral) vectors are animals that transmit a disease but do not necessarily get sick themselves.  Malaria and mosquitoes for example.\nViral vectors are commonly referred to now as modified viruses  used in gene therapy.  Viruses that infect the lungs are being used to restore proper lung function in Cystic Fibrosis patients.  I am an environmental health specialist and have a degree in biology.

are there any Goverment Grant programs that don't cost a fortune?

You can go to the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) http://www.cfda.gov and Grants.gov http://www.grants.gov - these are two sites created by the federal government to provide transparency and information on grants. Browse through the listings and see if you can find any grant that would support your purposes.\n\nEven if you buy books on "how to get grants" or list that supposedly has information on grants -- all of them are mere rehash of what CFDA has, albeit packaged differently.\n\nNote though that these grants generally support non-profit organizations, intermediary lending institutions, and state and local governments. Most of the federal grants are given to specific target groups with specific requirements (e.g. minority business owners involved in transportation related contracts emanating from DOT - Grant#20.905 Disadvantaged Business Enterprises Short Term Lending Program. Individuals especially for personal purposes are not eligible for federal grants. \n\nGrants are also often given to non profit groups or organizations involved in training or other similar activities (grant 59.043 Women's Business Ownership Assistance that are given to those who will create women's business center that will train women entrepreneurs \n\nhttp://www.cfda.gov\nhttp://www.grants.gov\nhttp://gtionline.fdncenter.org\nhttp://www.powerhomebiz.com/vol66/grants.htm\nhttp://www.sba.gov/expanding/grants.html

How far will the USA men's soccer team get in this summers world cup?

Given that there are many Americans using this site, I know the "popular" answer will be they can do well, or even win the tournament. However, the realistic answer is that they are underdogs, and will struggle to compete with the top teams.\n\nOf course, in a game of football anything can happen and sometimes unfancied teams can do well - Greece won the European Championships against all the odds, for example.\n\nThey have a tough group to qualify from - Italy have a strong team, and the Czech Republic are no pushovers. Ghana are obviously the weakest of the 4 teams, but as they play them last the pressure will probably be well and truly on for that match.\n\nBasically, they need to get a win from their opening game against the Czechs, because the chances are Italy will be too strong for them to get anything from that game. This will mean they go into the game against Ghana pretty much knowing a win should take them through to the knockout stages. Should they fail in their opening game, by the time they face Ghana they will probably be playing only for pride.\n\nPresuming they reach the qualifying rounds, there is a very good chance they will have to play Brazil next (the runners up in group E play the winners of group F). \n\nTherefore, I would suggest that if USA manage to get to the last 16, and are then beaten by Brazil, they will have had a very good tournament and done as well as you can hope for. Anything over that will be a massive achievement for the team.


I think that I might know someone, not sure.  I'll see if I can find out for you.


The world cup favorite is definitly Brazil , with not just their all star line up but all star backups. With Ronaldo , Edilson and especially the best player in the world Ronaldinho   in the lineup , it would be next to impossible for anybody to pull an upset on them. Besides them if there is anybody who has even a chance is Germany , since they're the host and they have an impressive Bundusliga superstars lineup. I wouldnt count England in just because of the fact that every World Cup they bring their best premeir league superstars which I think are as good if not better than the brazilian players. Players like Beckham, Gerrard ,Cole , Ferdinand to name a few superstars but somehow they dont seem to perform their best as an English team. United States  have a very good team this time , better than last world cup's but if you are talkin about winning the world cup I would say they are not at that stage yet.


No African country will pass to 16 in world cup 2006. Suggest.?

On paper it doesn't look likely at all, but then the World Cup is known to pull a few surprises or two and African teams are especially known to be unpredictable. Who would have thought that Senegal would qualify from their group in 2002? Or that South Korea and Turkey would make it all the way to the Semi-Final stage?\n\nHowever, I think you are correct. I cannot see any African progressing beyond the last 16. Maybe Ivory Coast but that again is a long shot.


can slobbering in your sleep cause cold sores?

no.  cold sores are a virus.  The herpes simplex virus (HSV) (also known as Cold Sore, Night Fever, or Fever Blister) is a virus that manifests itself in two common viral infections, each marked by painful, watery blisters in the skin or mucous membranes (such as the mouth or lips) or on the genitals. The disease is contagious, particularly during an outbreak, and is incurable with present technology. An infection on the lips is commonly known as a "cold sore" or "fever blister," though this should not be confused with a canker sore, which appears inside the mouth and is not caused by the herpes simplex virus.

How do computers help with the uderstanding of the universe?

Computers support the work of astronomers in two major ways.\n\nFirst, they help acquire, store, and analyze the massive amounts of data that astronomical research generates.  Astronomers are currently undertaking a venture called the “virtual observatory,” an international effort at standardizing and allowing access to the data collected by observatories around the world and in space.  Without computers, we’d still be trying to use photographic plates and low-resolution analog detectors to figure out the cosmos;instead, we have the Hubble Space Telescope!\n\nThe second major influence is the advent of “computational astrophysics” over the last several decades, during which time we have refined the ability to simulate the laws of physics on our computers.  We can use comptuers to re-create environments we can’t visit and periods of time that are too long for us to experience.  Thus, we can use computers to simulate everything from Earth’s magnetic field to galactic collisions, from stellar birth to the bending of light around black holes.  Then we can compare those simulations to what we see around us (sifting through the aforementioned massive quantities of data).\n\nI can’t help but note one other way in which computers aid astronomers…  Computers allow us to visualize the complex data returned from both telescopes and computer code.  So we can employ not just purely numerical tools to study the data, but also begin to explore the information with, as it were, the right side of our brains.  My title, you see, is “science visualizer.”  :)\n\n(Below, I link to course notes for a class I co-taught about “Computers, Data Exploration & Science in the 21st Century.”)\n\n\nRyan Wyatt\nRose Center for Earth & Space\nNew York, New York

The purpose of the glow varies. Those adult females which glow do so to attract a male for mating. The Lampyridae larvae are believed to glow to warn predators like toads not to eat the larvae as they're mildly toxic. But the Arachnocampa larvae on the other hand glow to attract prey like midges into sticky snare lines for the larva to feed on.


I shall never forget it, it was the most frightening thing I have ever seen in my life, I wrote this the same day.\n\nThe  Twin Towers – 9 /11\n\nThe world turned upside down today,\nSurely this cannot be right,\nTo do such things to get ones way,\nBy death, destruction, terror, fright.\n\nThe sight was burned upon my eyes,\nOf deathly events on a distant shore,\nInsanity fell from out the skies,\nOn those who see loved ones no more.\n\nIn the name of religion, these things were done,\nIf they were right, it leaves one cold,\nIn the name of God, there is but One,\nThe problem is not new but old.\n\nBut He shall have the final say,\nWhen He shall decide, He shall rule,\nOn those before Him on Judgment Day,\nThat what they did was wrong and cruel.\n\nInstead of raising them on high,\nHis findings to them He shall declare,\nOn Martyrdom and Suicide,\nAnd without doubt, make them aware.\n\nThou shalt not kill, was writ on stone,\nTo live, to die, is not man’s choice,\nTo take a soul, is His alone,\nTo disobey, a mammoth price. \n\nFor they shall spend eternity,\nIn Hell for what they did this day,\nAnd ponder for infinity,\nThat this was not, is not, the way. \n\n\n------------------------

How does fertilizer help plants grow? what are some good facts about fertilizer that i can write about?

In order for a plant to grow and thrive, it needs a number of different chemical elements.\nThe most important of these (the ones that are needed in the largest quantity by a plant) are nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium. \nWithout nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, the plant simply cannot grow because it cannot make the pieces it needs\nTo make plants grow faster, what you need to do is supply the elements that the plants need in readily available forms. That is the goal of fertilizer. Most fertilizers supply just nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium because the other chemicals are needed in much lower quantities and are generally available in most soils. Nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium availability is the big limit to growth. \n\nAre you aware that plants need at least sixteen elements for healthy growth and that only four of them are commonly applied as fertilizer? These four are calcium, phosphorus, nitrogen and potassium. \n\nThe numbers on a bag of fertilizer tell you the percentages of available nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium found in the bag. So 12-8-10 fertilizer has 12-percent nitrogen, 8-percent phosphorous and 10-percent potassium. In a 100-pound bag, therefore, 12 pounds is nitrogen, 8 pounds is phosphorous and 10 pounds is potassium. The other 70 pounds is known as ballast and has no value to the plants. \n\nThere are many forms of fertilizers, and from my vast experience in growing shrubs, plants and garden crops I have not found a particular advantage of using the liquid over the dry: it is perhaps a matter of personal preference. The dry forms of fertilizer seem to work best on starter plants and are also excellent for accurate application to houseplants and other container grown plants.


how do you calculate slugging percentage in baseball?

The slugging percentage indicates the player’s ability to get extra-base base hits, such as doubles, triples, and home runs. The calculation for slugging percentage is the number of total bases achieved for all hits divided by the number of at bats. Slugging percentage tells you how many bases a player hits for each time at bat. \n\nTotal number of bases from hits (TB) divided by number of at bats (AB)\n\nTB = 1B + 2(2B) + 3(3B) + 4(HR) / AB

People are ignorant. There are positive stereotypes and negative stereotypes. If the majority of one group has a certain characteristic, that becomes a stereotype. The problem is that it does not leave room to individuality or behaving "outside-of-the-box". Stereotypes trap us in a role and it trap us with possibly incorrect views of others.


How can atheist deny God even when they say they believe in science which points to intelligent design.?

atheist are fools!!\n\nthat's what the bible says about them. \n\nThe fool says in his heart, "There is no God." (Psalm 53:1) and this is said again in Psalm 14:1 The fool says in his heart, "There is no God."\n\nit's not a matter of intelligent design, it's foolish not to believe in God the Lord Almighty.\n\nif you say that atheist believe what they see, then what Paul wrote in Romans is true...\n\nFor although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened. Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images made to look like mortal man and birds and animals and reptiles.(Romans 1:21-23)\n\nindeed, 'Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools'\n\nlook...you atheist, you can not see the air but that does not stop you from breathing. so, stop this foolishness. you perceive the air and you breathe...perceive also that God exists and believe.\n\nTake heed, you senseless ones among the people; you fools, when will you become wise? (Psalm 94:8)\n\nIn the past God overlooked such ignorance, but now he commands all people everywhere to repent. (Acts 17:30)

i cannot shut down my computer plzz suggest something?

The first step to take is to ensure that you close all programs yourself and then shut down to see if it then works. If it does, then by trial and error you can work out which program is causing the problem.\n\nIf this doesn't work, then it may be a hardware conflict or if you are using "Fast User Switching" there are known issues with this.\n\nIf you are using fast user switching, try logging out "backwards" - in other words, close the programs and user profiles that you opened last first, and so on.\n\nThe source below is a Google search which points to many sites with a wide variety of solutions a many different shut down issues. With the details you have provided it is impossible to give an exact answer, but I am sure if you look through the sites below you will find something to help you.

Does glucosamine work for osteoarthitis?

Semper Fi, Gunny!  No, I'm afraid glucosamine and that other "alternative remedy", chondroitin, have been studied quite extensively, and no measurable benefit has been found.  This remained true whether the two substances were used alone or together.\n\nOsteoarthritis is a real bummer - mine has taken a big hunk out of my life by limiting my mobility and my flexibility.  It eventually does a number like that on most people who develop the disorder.  The only way to avoid it is to choose your parents carefully.  \n\nThere are some prescription medicines that can help; see your doctor.  If what he/she prescribes does not seem to help enough, ask for a referral to a rheumatologist, an MD who specializes in illness of this nature.\n\nGlucosamine and Chondroitin are not the only "alternative medicine" remedies suggested by herbalists and others who shouldn't be attempting to practice medicine ('cause they ain't nowhere near prepared or experienced enough), and some of them have appeared, at times, to offer slight to moderate relief from some of the symptoms of osteoarthritis.  Those results simply have not proven consistent. You might take a dose of Glucosamine and feel great the rest of the day, but next time you take it, you don't feel any relief or you feel worse than you did before taking the second dose.  \n\nI have interviewed several dozen folks over the past thirty years who have tried Glucosamine and Chondroitin together and tried each seperately.  None of them has obtained the hoped-for relief from those substances.  \n\nThe choice of whether or not to try either substance or both of them is up to you.  But after reading the above, at least, you will be able to make a more fully informed choice.  Good luck, Gunny.  Hope you find some relief.

You people are morons.  Are you capable of thought beyond "can I sleep a few more minutes or will I pee the bed?"\n\nImagine an anarchist society.  Would you have roads?  No, infrastructure probably wouldn't exist as we know it without taxes to pay for it.  \n\nWould you be able to go outside?  Probably not, since there is no police force to protect you and keep your neighbor from shooting your stupid asses where you stand.\n\nWould you be able to get healthcare (for the gunshot wound in your stupid ass?)  Probably not, since there is no ambulance service, and no incentive whatsoever for anyone to provide healthcare to you.  And even if there were healthcare, there would be nothing forcing them to see your stupid ass.  \n\nWould you have anything good in your life?  No, what motivation would anyone have to do anything whatsoever in an anarchist society?\n\nI think it boils down to this.  People crying "anarchy rulz" and stupidity like that are basically school-aged kids, probably high-schoolers with their first "outside-the-box" thought who see anarchy as a way to get out of school.  Fat, lazy, stupid teenagers.


what is multiple nephrolithiasis with mild to moderate hydronephrosis?

Kidney stones (nephrolithiasis) that strike women are more apt to occur during pregnancy, usually in the late stages.

FIrst the temperature-It is extremely cold in the winter, and cool in the summer.  Then generally the wind-wind can play a major role, especially in mountainous tundra-also in mountainous tundra is the problem of UV radiation.


Okay thats not fair, I did not realize that by asking the previous ? you were unable to link to my original ?

Statutes of limitations don't apply to traffic citations. The statute of limitation says that prosecution must begin within a certain period of time since the date of the crime, but being issued a citation IS the initiation of prosecution. Also, though you do not believe you have been convicted, you probably have been in absentia, which is what they do for people who don't show up to their court date.


Who's funnier and more irritating? Ben Stiller or Jack Black?

Stiller is creepy (and thus irritating) and so is Black but Black is funnier.


How do I identify the ethnic group I belong to?

No surefire way to tell but everything can give you hints at your background.\nYour last name: Speilman=Jewish, Wilhelm=German etc...\nYour skin tone, hair qualities, nails, grandparents, family history!!!!!!\nTry and trace your roots through a local genealogical  society. They could help you find out who and where your ancestors lived, what they did and how you came to be.


Nope, why? It's too dangerous.  It doesn't mean anything. Plus, single parents are not always adequate and that's what sex is for. Babies.


why is an assist in basketball referred to as a DIME?

I think i'm right. If you've ever heard this phrase "he just passed on a dime". That's an assist. When you pass on a dime, you're passing on a very small spot on the floor, meaning that anywhere else it would not be a good pass. So, basically, a dime is a very nice assist, or perfect assist.

How long does Priority mail take to reach troops in Iraq?

Mail gets to either San Francisco or New York(depending on whether its AP or AE) via the USPS, then the military takes over all aspects.  letters and smaller packages will get there sooner than large or very heavy packages due to space and weight limitations.  Priority only get its to NY/SF faster, after that, it's entirely dependant on th eavailability of AMC.  Don't spend the money for Priority unless it s a very small difference between that at regualr postage rates.  \n\nIt's also a good idea to number letters, just in case they  don't get delivered in order...


Why can't people take care of their responsibility?

First of all, don't go clumping everyone who can't pay their bills into the same group of deadbeats!  That is what really pisses me off abut you collectors!\n\nEvery person has their own reasons.  Sure, you got a lot of irresponsible people, but a whole lot more have legitimate problems.\n\nDivorces, medical emergencies, loss of jobs, personal accidents or disasters...all of these can ruin someones ability to pay bills.  \n\nFrom my experiences, most people want to pay, but because of the above reasons they can't!  They certainly can make an effort, but collectors like you won't give them a chance!  It's either pay it all now, or your credit is ruined!\n\nIt certainly doesn't make it easier when credit card companies totally screw you with their tricks.  Like when you miss a payment by a few days, and suddenly your interest jumps from 13% to 29%!  Years of good payments mean nothing to you...but miss ONE payment and you are screwed!\n\nAnd it's certainly nice of them to raise your credit limit without your knowledge.  The next think you know, you are $5000 in debt on a card that you thought only had a $2000 limit!  OK, that's the fault of the irresponsible consumer for not knowing their card limits.  But you see how it can destroy someones budget?\n\nI've posted a lot of comments here.  I've had a ton of nasty emails from collectors calling me a deadbeat.  \n\nTruth is I pay my bills.  And in a sense I'm a collector too (GASP!).  \n\nI run a storage facility, and I have to deal with non payment issues all the time.  But in two years I have never had to evict anyone!  I understand that people run into hard times, and I will work with them to catch up.  I'm damn proud of my history with working with people!\n\nHow many people have you sued?

if u meant by pie "pi" then; yes, there is no final digit (Not didgit) since it is an infinite irrational number (trivia: an indian mathematician can give 50,000 digit of pi by heart according to Guinness)\n\nBut if you meant by pie "pie" then:\n\nPie: former small coin of India: a very small coin formerly used in India, worth one third of a pice\n\n Pice: old subunit of South Asian currency: a subunit of currency formerly used in South Asia, four of which were worth an anna\n \nAnna: Indian coin: a copper coin formerly used in South Asia, worth one-sixteenth of a rupee \n\nRupee: the main unit of currency in India, Mauritius, Nepal, Pakistan, the Seychelles, and Sri Lanka \n\nTherefore;\n\n1Pie=1/3 pice\n1Pice=1/4 Anna\n1Anna=1/16 rupee\n1 rupee= 3 cents (0.03 $)\nPie=1/3*1/4*1/16*.03= 0.00015625$\nThen the last digit of Pie = 5

Well, since your giving the speech at a wedding, it needs\nto stay on that topic.\n\nI would suggest talking about how your sister and best friend met. Their relationship. When they brought up\nmarriage. Stay away from humor. Just follow your instincts\non how to start your speech.


what r sites in india that offer free educational counseling for options after 12th?

Your question can be interpreted in two ways, as you nave not clarified, whether you intend to ask for 'FREE EDUCATION' after 10+2 or you need answer on 'FREE CAREER COUNSELLING', as to which higher education and career would suit a student after clearing his/her 10+2 exam. Both have two different aspects.\n\nSo far as, Free Education after 10+2 is concerned, of course education up to 10+2 is free in most of the States in India, but after 10+2, no State or Private College/Institution provides for Free education.\n\nAs far as Free Career Counselling is concerned, there may be rare concern providing free counselling.  However, Public Schhols mostly provide free career counselling to its students before passing 10+2 exam.

how many people in amera are organ doners? like what are the statistics???

Not enough, in my opinion.\n\n"More than 1,000 Arizona residents are on transplant lists and just 41 thousand people are registered as organ donors."\n\nhttp://www.kpho.com/global/story.asp?s=3920853&ClientType=Printable\n\n"Each day about 63 people receive an organ transplant, but another 16 people on the waiting list die because not enough organs are available. Make a difference in a person's life."\n\nhttp://www.fdhc.state.fl.us/MCHQ/Health_Facility_Regulation/Organ_Donors/\n\n"In the United States, the waiting list is quoted to be about 90,000 people long. It is not uncommon for those on the waiting list to die before receiving a suitable organ."\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organ_donor\n\nBut, sorry, I could not find a source which would tell me a percentage of Americans who are donors.


how do i tell this guy i like that i like him? i havent talked to him yet so ya what do i do?

First, you may want to start with a simple 'hello.' Then, go from there. Find similar interests. For example: music, movies, etc. Remember, take it slow. A relationship is very serious. You should be someone that you have things in common with. Otherwise, you may not be fully devoted and lose interest, then the relationship will come a nasty end. I know you've probably heard this a thousand times, but be yourself. It's the only person you should ever want to be.

what do you think the of  destiny of the human race?

I don't think it's too bright unless we make some drastic changes in the way we live and how we treat the environment. As is we are destroying our home daily, and the end will come sooner than we think, I believe.  Ultimately I think we will kill ourselves off. I don't believe human civilization will end by a giant meteor hitting or the sun expanding and enveloping the planet--I think we will kill ourselves off inadvertently long before anything else does.

Whats the difference between fedral camps and federal prisons?

FPC's (Federal Prison Camps) are considered MINIMUM security institutions (think Martha Stewart).  In an FPC you are able to work in the outside community as well as do outside community service work, and also obtain furloughs to leave the institution (weekend to go home).  These institutions are for non-violent, short sentenced offenders primarily.  THEY ARE STILL PRISONS and the inmates are still under federal jurisdiction.  For example, if an inmate fails to return from furlough, or is disruptive in the community they can be removed from the camp and placed in a higher security level institution.\nThe other types of federal prisons are based on security level.  There is LOW, MEDIUM, PENITENTIARY's, DETENTION CENTERS, MEDICAL CENTERS, and a SUPER-MAX (where you will find the Uni-bomber).  Inmates are placed in a institution based on crime, violence, psychological profile, and a number of other criteria.\nALL federal prisons fall under the Department of Justice's Federal Bureau of Prisons.

how do you begin to trust again after being cheated on ... for a year....?

Start slow.  Take time to get to know the next person you date before throwing your emotions into another relationship.  It takes time, I know.  Give yourself time to heal then start over again.  You don't have to rush but don't hide from dating or relationships for to long because after a while you might become too comfortable avoiding situations were your trust is tested.  Then your just alone.


Has anyone else noted the poor level of spelling an grammar on this site?

It is absolutely pitiful sometimes. The text messaging language, total lack of punctuation, and mangled grammar are completely and utterly painful. \n\nI just try to skip those questions. I decided a long time ago that if the person can't take the time to properly phrase a question, I certainly don't need to bother to read or answer it.

Should I save the prospectus for my investment funds?

It's really not necessary.  They send a lot of paperwork because the government requires them to, but you don't necessarily need most of it.  Sometimes it's nice to know what stocks your fund owns, but I usually just glance at it and then toss it.\n\nAnd, yes, I believe most of that info is probably available online now.  No need to clutter up your files any more than necessary.

Do you ever get the urge to spit  gum in someones hair?


The condition for a number K to be of the form 1+2+..+n is obtained simply by solving for n the equation K = n(n+1)/2.\nThis leads to the following test:\nSqr(1+8K) must be an odd integer.\n\nNow to your second question for K of the form 1+(2^2)+(3^2)+...+(n^2). In this case, the equation to solve for n is K = n(n+1)(2n+1)/6. This is as to find the real and integer zeroes of the cubic function:\n2(x^3)+3(x^2)+x-6K=0\nI don't know a synthetic test formula for x being real and integer. However, you can find the general solution at the (usual) Wikipedia, see page below.

My b/f always acuse me of cheating but im not what can i do to let him no that im not?

From a guy's perspective, your b/f has insecurity issues (I know b/c I have some of the same issues).  Best thing to do, if you want to stay with him, is to ask him what frightens him about you or about your relationship.  Most of the time, those insecurity issues are deeply-rooted in his past(most likely with his parents) and are not something that can be fixed overnight.  Counseling is also a good avenue to take.

Where is a good place to meet interesting people and make new friends?

Open the door and walk outside. It's as simple as that. There's an odd mix of people all around you and everywhere you go.

Interact with people you normally wouldn't at the places you normally go (i.e. school, shopping, work, gym, club, and yes- even at the bar). Good luck.

When is the right time to start advertising for a new product?

I would advertise first.  Get the name out there.  Product recognition is key.  Then when your customer sees your product in the store, they will say to themselves, "oh, here is that detergent I've been hearing about. I think I'll try it".\n\nGood luck.

when the term is up on term life insurance, what happens to the money you paid? do you get it back?

Term insurance is strictly insurance.  If you are looking to cover certain liabilities that will be paid off in a set number of years, then term life insurance is usually the answer.  If you are looking for permanent coverage, then whole or universal life insurance is usually the answer. This answer may sound fuzzy, but in order to give professional suggestions the best thing is to meet with an advisor that can go over your current financial situation to determine exactly how much coverage you need and what type is best.  Here is directory of local advisors: http://www.insuremylife.org\nAlso here is more info on how Permanent life insurance works: http://www.findlocalinsurance.com/permlife.html

Why isn't Real Salt Lake doing very well?

I watched them play Houston Dynamo last night and it appeared to me that their midfield and fullbacks were too physical and gave up too many fouls in their defensive third of the field. \nTheir attack depended too much on fast break straight up the middle if the defense is is able to break it down they can't be successful. They had no set play opportunities so they had to depend on being able to break down the defense....Sorry to say but, its going to be a long season in Salt Lake.


Is it okay to hit the jacuzzi straight after a steam bath?

You may want to hydrate yourself before going in. Sweating looses a lot of water. If you get in without drink some, you could pass out before you realize you are sick. Drink at least 8 oz but probably more. Take time to relax, like 15-30 minutes, while you drink and make sure the water is not very cold. The more tepid the water is the easier it will digest without making you feel like a water balloon.


How do I compose a Dance Studio Business Plan Outline?

I find that the easiest way to begin a new business plan is to view one that currently exists in the same market or industry.  I use Business Plan Pro for many of my daily planing needs and I have found the sample plans included to be very helpful in pointing out specific industry topics and other items not easily found by just searching the internet.  \n\nObviously you need to generate your own unique plan for your business, so you can't just go and copy and paste an existing template or sample plan, but it will help in guiding you through the actual planning process.  After all... it's really the process of putting together the plan itself that is the most beneficial part of creating a business plan!\n\nHere's an example of a dance studio business plan that is available.  Hope this helps: http://www.paloalto.com/ps/bp/samplebusinessplans/dance_studio_business_plan.cfm

Loan Processing for www.fvtc.edu/finaid?

What about it? This school's Financial Aid page is very detailed.  It appears that their notification and loan processing is almost entirely automated.\n\n1. Your award letter will be sent via mail.  After that, you will be able to view it online at www.fvtc.edu\n\n2. If your package contains loans, you will need to (a) sign your Master Promissory Note online and (b) complete Entrance Counsling online.  It appears that their office has chosen to process their loans through Great Lakes Higher Education Corporation, a guarantor.  This is their choice and, to make processing go smoothly (so your money comes on time), you might want to follow their process.\n\n3. Money will be sent from their loan servicer to the school, at which point the school will disburse the funds to your student account according to a set schedule, outlined here: http://www.fvtc.edu/tp2.asp?ID=Financial+Aid&pix=019\n\nIf you have specific questions, contact the school's Financial Aid Office.

If the error remains when standings are updated the following morning, please notify us and include the information requested below. \n\n\nScoring corrections are processed once a week on Mondays. Before reporting a scoring error to Yahoo!, please click the "Stat Corrections" link which can be found on your league's Research and Analysis page. The correction you are requesting may be pending, in which case it will be processed in all leagues the following Monday.

how HIV/AIDS transfered from monkey to human?

There are several theories to this, and none of them are proven. The most commonly accepted theory is that of the 'hunter'. In this scenario, SIVcpz (like HIV, but the S stands for Simian) was transferred to humans as a result of chimps being killed and eaten or their blood getting into cuts or wounds on the hunter. Normally the hunter's body would have fought off SIV, but on a few occasions it adapted itself within its new human host and become HIV-1. \n\nIf you have any other questions, please do not hesitate to contact your local department of public health. Free testing is available, as well as risk reduction, and post-infection counseling.


Can anyone tell me how I can protect files not to be copied???????

On what operating system? Unix try 'chmod go-r <filename>'. Windows no idea.


A large part of the world wars (both) was the growth of the "fatherland" (der Vaterland), and the spread of the german way of life.  A big idea is "doing it for the people". There is also some of the idea of "they brought the fight to us" (by messing with us/ allies), even though that might not have been true (propaganda is about what you make people believe, after all).  Some of the later propaganda was also aimed at the Americans, trying to convince them to go home, that it wasn't their fight.\n\nYou can focus on the soldiers, but a lot of propaganda stayed at home telling the farmers/workers to keep up/ increase their production so the people/soldiers won't suffer, as well as the anti-propaganda against the other nations.


European citizenship and national identity?

Is the question: Are you for it or against it?  I'm not European but looking at how many different countries and different cultures make up the European continent, I don't think we should just lump them all up into one.  I believe they would want their own identities and would like to keep their heritage alive.  Although it is well-meaning and optimistic to believe we should all be one and call ourselves citizens of the world, alas, that is not the case.  We are still culturally divided and as human beings inherently attached to tradition and view our past as well our future tied up to who we are and where we come from.


I need to buy exendrin - 4 for diabetes healing, who can help me find it?

Last I looked, exendrin-4 ("essence of lizard spit" :-) and its derivatives had only recently been licensed for commercial use, under the trade-name "Byetta" in the USA.\nIt's an injected medication, intended to be used in conjunction with oral meds, and probably only available through your doctor as a prescription med.\n\nPlease note that Byetta is a new *treatment* not a cure.  It's a therapy, not a "healing". Please be aware of the difference

Why America and Europe do not want Iran become a Muslim Atomic Nation? Will it be a superb step taken by Iran?

Pakistan is a nuclear-powered Muslim nation, and we don't care. They have proven to be responsible, reasonable, and very aware of the consequences of using those weapons. The reason that we are concerned about Iran is that IT'S BEING RUN BY A BUNCH OF LUNATICS!!! It's the same difference between giving a calm, sane man a gun and giving one to a mental hospital escapee.\n\nIran (as a nation) is violent, reckless, and totally irresponsible. They don't deserve rifles, much less atomic bombs. I hope and pray that someone airstrikes their nuclear program before it's too late.

Anyone experience neourological problems after giving birth?

Lol....when you are pregnant and as you give birth, the areas around your hips, low back, and tailbone, especially around your spinal column, all shift around markedly.  This is because a hormone released while you are pregnant, loosens up everything in the area (usually the areas involved are much more stable).  It is quite common for the various nerves to be squeezed and compromised, especially if you are older (ie 30's as opposed to 20's).  Drop foot is typically seen in people who have the nerve roots squeezed at L4 (about 2-4 inches above the crack of your ass).\n\nUsually, it's not a big deal.  Symptoms eventually go away and function returns.  However, if you experience certain symptoms.....incontinance (or inability to go to the bathroom even though you have to), the inability to feel anything down there around the area that would be touching a saddle if you were riding a horse (saddle parathesia) or even numbness and tingling around that area.  Some others.  These are signs of something called cauda equina syndrome....a surgical emergency.  They mean that the nerve is being squeezed so tightly that blood flow is being cut off to it.  They could be damaged permanently....causing symptoms like drop foot to become permanent.


Where can you find abou employment laws and the rights as an employee?


This is a complex question, and the answer depends upon your definiton of God. If your God is an old geezer in the sky who created absolutely everything, then it would logically follow that he or she created hatred. But maybe God just established the laws of nature and then set everything in motion (Deism). In this case human beings are the inventors of hatred. Or, maybe God is the same thing as Nature, in which case people would still be the inventors of hatred (and evil). Lots of theologians have struggled with this question.

when your hair goes grey, does it grow in that way or does the strand of hair change color?

Once the hair color changes, it grows in in the new color. If it has turned grey, any new hair will also be grey. Some people have hair that gets lighter as they grow older, without going grey. Myself, for instance, I had jet-black hair as a youngster, but hair that grows now is of a lighter shade. I'm digressing.\n\nThis is because the "going grey" is due to a loss of pigment in the hair follicle area, so that the pigment that once colored your hair is now gone. Since there is nothing to change the color of your hair, it comes out as grey or white, which would be the natural color of it (so to speak).\n\nNot scientific, I know, but I hope the answer helps.


Why do lantern mantles eminate radiation after being burnt?

They emit radiation before being burnt, too.  They're made with a thorium alloy, and thorium is a weak alpha ray emitter similar to uranium.  I'm not sure if newer ones are made this way, but they were made with thorium for decades.

What is the most effective form of behaviour management?

A system of rewards and consequences.  I suggest that you have a clearly defined set of rules that tell exactly what you expect.  (I have heard that a rule must be repeated 12 times before it truly sinks in.)  Then have a way for the child to see his/her progress.  I use jars with popsicle sticks for my 2 and 4 year old boys.  One jar has a happy face and 1 jar has a sad face... sticks move from jar to jar as the behavior dictates, but when the sticks move there is either a reward or a consequence.  Consequences could be time-out or loss of a toy.  Rewards could be going someplace special or choosing that night's dinner menu.  It all depends on the age of the child.  And so with that in mind, my jars might not work for you but you could adapt the idea and maybe have a "3 strikes" chart.  The possibilities are endless.  But in the end children need to realize that there are rewards for postive behavior and consequences for negative behvaior and that they are essentially choosing a reward or consequence by choosing their behavior.  (This is true in a classroom too.)

what is a good website for womens bikes. i want to purchase one for someone's b-day?

I might get a gift card of some sort or a gift certificate.  One of the important things about a bike is the fit.  You could go to Performance or Bike Nashbar (sister companies) and buy a bike.  Colorado Cyclists is very good.  You could go to a site and buy a bike.  What do you do next?  If the bike fits, you are lucky.  What happens if you need to swap a part to get a better fit?  Very tough.  Since a good fit prevents injury and makes the ride more enjoyable, personally, I would get the card.

Quality costing is one of the most popular topics in the field of management accounting or cost management in Japan. It is expected to produce the data required for evaluation of effectiveness of quality management activities through visualizing of quality by cost measures and for supporting improvement of these activities.  However, until recently, this costing technique has been utilized very little in business.  In spite of the fact that extraordinary efforts to secure and improve quality were made by many Japanese companies, there were only a few companies that grasped accurately how much cost was needed for those efforts.  But recently, several Japanese companies began to set up quality cost system.  Through their operations the meaningful problem for providing strategic characteristics into the system gradually became clear.

Its fine as long as you protect yourselves.  Have some fun while it lasts!


If yer talking andromadous fishy fishing, fish generally hold in tidewater until the tide goes out. It is then their noses pick up the smell of the rivers they were born in and they  think .... "there it is Let's GO!"\n\nFis such as these rely on smell to find their way home. Once on the way, the are not going to let anything stawp them. Even whats on the end of your hook can infuriate them so much, they will attack it just out of anger.\n\nSometimes it a subtle tap tap tap....other times its a jerk so strong your pole tip hits the water and it is at this time you can yell, FISH ON !

What is the most unique or memorable thing that someone did for thier wedding?

Refer to Julia Roberts and Richard Gere in "Runaway bride"!\nOkay, seriously, the most memorable was to include a ring ceremony with my children from a previous marriage.  This was separate but similar to our own exchange, but we each wrote a vow to the children.  They were very young, and now their rings are on chains that hang in my room.  I think they would make beautiful ornaments for a Christmas tree for their first Christmas tree when they are married. :)\n\nI also think inviting children of those you invite is important to teach children the sacred and specialness of weddings.  With this said, a table designed just for them with games, toys, pens, bubbles, kid foods, and a special attendant for them (and their own dance floor) and a small special bouquet and boutt. to make them part of it all. :)\n\nOne more, since you were probably not looking for children, the table decorated with small bowls of live beta fish in similar wedding colors, as favors, with thank you's around the edges of the fluted bowls (or as name place holders) with confetti hearts, glitter, or tinsel on mirrors with mini christmas like lights around would be nice if indoors or at night, too!  Congratulations and enjoy!

Do jails also contain probation and parole like prisons do?

Probation is given to those who are convicted of a non-felony crime. If they are convicted or a felony, but are lucky enough to be granted county time, the get what is called "felony probation". If they break the rules and conditions of their probation then they go to prison and not to county jail.\n\nA person is on probation, when they do not serve their entire term inside the county jail. They are granted an early release but are on probation for the remainder of the time they should have done on their sentence incarcerated. \n\nA person is on parole for the same reason, only they have been granted early release from prison rather than county jail.  They are also given parole for the period of time they did not finish in prison.\n\nNow, if a person violates their probation or parole, they are sent back to serve a portion of the time the did not serve. However, what also happens is they are sentenced to an extension of their probation or parole. Somebody can be on both probation and parole at the same time.\n\nSomebody is on both when they committ another crime while on parole and it is determined not to be a felony. So, they are given probation. Then they have both a probation and a parole officer and they are usually two differant people. Two differant systems, two seperate individuals in the differant departments of justice.\n\nYes, somebody can be on active probation or parole while in jail or prison. However, as they are under the supervision of the prison or jail they do not see their probation or their parole officer while incarcerated. \n\nHowever, while in county jail, a prisoner can request to see his/her probation or parole officer. These officers are going to make reccomendations to the judge on what type of punsihment they think the person should get. So, the prisoner can request to meet with their officers in order to plead their case for a reduced sentence or even to be released from jail while waiting for the final verdict from the judge. \n\nUsually somebody on parole will not be released while waiting for the final verdict on their violation or new charge. However, those in county jail just on probation ar often released in order to cut down on over crowding or if the probation officer thinks they deserve to be out while waiting on the judges decision. If the officer is going to reccoment prison, the probationer is not likely to get out while waiting as many run when facing prison.\n\nOnce in prison, they will not see their parole officer untill they get out. Then they are given 24 hours to check in with their parole officer. If they don't a warrent for their arrest is issued immediantly and when caught they go straight back to prison.

Always a tough question...Ronnie Lott, LT, Butkas, Lambert(or anyone of the steel curtain)....I was gonna say Lott because let's face it the guy was NUTS!! but then I thought aside from Favre no one mentioned "O"...there was a Payton reference, must give SWEETNESS his props. I would give my Iron man trophy to the great Jim Brown, C'mon he played 8 years and it took Payton 15 seasons too originally break the rushing record and I think it took E.Smith 16 or 17. Jim Brown was a Def.Lines WORST nightmare and he was NEVER hurt...Running Around and THROUGH DL's and LB's(including Butkus,Ray N. and Deacon Jones). So put that in your pipe and smoke it...you should be ashamed of not even mentioning him..THE GREATEST, my runner-up was a tie between Lott and Earl Campbell( The Bastard can't even walk now he ran so hard!!)


how to apply for goverment grants, specific sites that are free.?

It is hard to find grants to start a business. Unlike the myths that some perpetuate, federal government and even private foundations hardly give grant money for a for-profit business. And yes, grants mean PAPERWORK - lots and lots of it, that is why a cottage industry of grant writers was born.\n\nNonetheless, you can go to the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) http://www.cfda.gov and Grants.gov http://www.grants.gov - these are two sites created by the federal government to provide transparency and information on grants. Browse through the listings and see if you can find any grant that would support a for-profit venture.\n\nEven if you buy books on "how to get grants" or list that supposedly has information on grants -- all of them are mere rehash of what CFDA has, albeit packaged differently. But still the info is the same - hardly any grants for starting a for profit business.\n\nFor a listing of housing grants, visit HUD grants page http://www.hud.gov/offices/adm/grants/fundsavail.cfm\n\nEven SBA does NOT give out grants. From the SBA website http://www.sba.gov/expanding/grants.html \n\n"The U.S. Small Business Administration does not offer grants to start or expand small businesses, although it does offer a wide variety of loan programs. (See http://www.sba.gov/financing for more information) While SBA does offer some grant programs, these are generally designed to expand and enhance organizations that provide small business management, technical, or financial assistance. These grants generally support non-profit organizations, intermediary lending institutions, and state and local governments."\n\nMost of the federal grants are given to specific target groups with specific requirements (e.g. minority business owners involved in transportation related contracts emanating from DOT - Grant#20.905 Disadvantaged Business Enterprises Short Term Lending Program \n\nGrants are also often given to non profit groups or organizations involved in training or other similar activities (grant 59.043 Women's Business Ownership Assistance that are given to those who will create women's business center that will train women entrepreneurs \n\nFor private grants, you may want to check the Foundation Center's Foundation Grants for Individuals Online. It's a subscription based website ($9.95 per month) but their opening blurb only says that the database is ideal for "students, artists, academic researchers, libraries and financial aid offices." Entrepreneurs are apparently not one of them, so I take it they also don't have listings of private foundations who give grants to would-be entrepreneurs.\n\nhttp://www.cfda.gov\nhttp://www.grants.gov\nhttp://gtionline.fdncenter.org\nhttp://www.powerhomebiz.com/vol66/grants.htm\nhttp://www.sba.gov/expanding/grants.html


Past recollection recorded versus refreshing recollection?

Two different uses for documents in a percipient witness (observing witness) testimony situation.\n\nRefreshing recollection is where you look at something you wrote down at the time, then having refreshed your memory, you testify from your memory. The document itself is not entered into evidence, it is just used to jog your memory. For this to be valid, you need to have (after refreshing) an independent memory of the event.\n\nPast recollection recorded refers to situations where you record present or recent observations. Common examples include on-scene police reports, security logs, etc. It also sometimes includes diaries and journals made some time after an incident, when the memories are still fresh. The difference is that here, even after you've re-read what was written, you still don't have an independent memory of the events in question. There are evidentiary rules about what is allowed, but the basic issue is that the logs themseves are entered as documents, so the standards are higher.\n\nExample: You are a security guard at a parking lot. You watch someone come onto the yard and break a car window. You  scare them off, and immediately write down in your security log what you saw including details. Now, two years later at trial, you are asked what you recall.\n\nFor refreshing recollection, you are allowed to look at the logs, but only to help jog your memory. If, after looking at the logs, you personally still don't remember those details in your own mind, you can't testify from memory. Then the attorney has to try to get the document itself entered, as a past recollection recorded to get around the hearsay problem.


My boyfriend & i argue over little things.Also because his mother treats me badly. Should I leave him?

if your both fighting and not happy why bother to stick it out. if his mother is not nice to you and he wont listen to you when you tell him about it is he really thinking of your best interests? your not married yet and already your not happy, and he seems to not care about that. personally i would not be with my husband if he didn't listen to me when i told him i was uncomfortable about something. as much as you want to put his feelings first you need to think about yourself too. if he doesn't make you feel good about yourself run fast and run hard, a lifetime can be really long when your not happy


Third Question: Why do you press harder on a remote-control when you know the battery is dead?

how do you get rid of spyware without paying or telling anyone?

I always like things that don't involve "adding software".  \n1  Goto, start/settings/control Panel/Add/Remove Software\n2  Look for items that say things like "search assistant, toolbar, excelerator, etc.  \nIf you aren't sure, shoot a question and we can help.\n\n***  This answer doesn't prevent adware/spyware.  Just a free and easy way to help find it.


On your own, just pitching ideas would be hard. You can, however, apply in a proper ad agency or media "hot shop" - ideas based agencies - etc. \n\nYet it seems to me that you first have to get to know the business. Raw ideas are worth nothing from people who are NOT in the industry. Your idea will be taken and implemented without even a thanks. This is because people already have all the ideas, no matter how unique we think our idea is, just searching the net with a few keywords will reveal someone's already at it. What people need is your ability to IMPLEMENT ideas. \n\nCan you do that? You can if you already have a reputation, a portfolio, and connections. There's is nothing with someone demanding that because the truth of the matter is that people with only ideas simply don't deliver, and no buyer can take the risk. \n\nIf you are passionate about ideas, and think you can do it on a consistent basis - rather than just come up with "better ways to make the ad i saw on TV" - you may have something going for you. It will take discipline and time, there is no short-cut in this business.\n\nFreelancing might be a good way to start. Internships are another. At any rate, build a protfolio. If you are already working and in a related business (added bonus), bounce ideas off other creative people in agencies and see if they are interested and want to buy your ideas. \n\nIf they think it's all steam and air, don't worry. You may be original and creative, just elsewhere. Keep believing, and focus on your strengths, not weaknesses. No one buys a weakness. Also check the link below. It's cynical but true.

I have heard that all living organisms from polar bears to penguins contain DDT in their bodies. How come?

There are a number of things to consider:\n1) Persistence - the time chemical substance remain in the ecosystem before degrading.  Elements are persistent in the extreme, most do not change during the lifetime of the solar system.  They only change by nuclear processes (fission or fusion).  Some organic substances, such as DDT, persist for decades or centuries simply because there are no efficient mechanisms for their degradation. \n\n2) Bioaccumulation - does the substance accumulate in the the tissues of organisms exposed in the environment due to \na) biocenentration - the tendency of a substance to be found at higher concentration in the organism that in the environment (i.e. higher in fish tissue than in the water they swim in) and \nb) biomagnification - the tendency of a substance to be found at higher concentration in organisms higher up the food chain (higher trophic levels).  There are some substances that bioconcentrate in fish, but do not biomagnify because the things that eat the fish can efficiently metabolize the substance.  \n\n\nand 3) Transportation/exposure - the tendency of substance move from the location it is released in the ecosystem.  More volatile substances are more easily transported around the globe (hence the many problems associated with mercury).  Give a long enough lifetime, most things will be cycled throughout the global ecosphere (to the poles, oceans, all land masses, etc.). \n\nThere are a handful of POPs (persistent organic pollutants-- of which DDT is one of the most infamous, see http://www.pops.int) which persist in the environment for decades or centuries.  The key to minimizing the risk from these substances is to stop their release into the environment so that even the very slow degradation can eliminate them from the ecosystem.\n\nTo sum up, DDT (and other POPs) is very persistent, it bioaccumulates up the food chain (so high-level predators like eagles and polar bears have higher concentrations in their tissues) and is fairly easily transported.


who can i send picture that i saved through an e-mail?


Could someone explain Nutrinos to me. And how do you trap and use nutrino energy like they are doing in Japan.

The existence of neutrinos was postulated to explain what was \nobserved when a nucleus undergoes beta decay via electron emission (a neutron \nin the nucleus changes into a proton, and the nucleus emits an electron).  \nObservation seemed to indicate that, in general, neither momentum nor total \nenergy was conserved in such a reaction.  This was, understandably, \ndisturbing.  In 1931 the physicist Pauli proposed that another, unseen \nparticle was also being emitted in the reaction, accounting for the "missing" \nmomentum and mass-energy.  Fermi named this particle neutrino" meaning "little \nneutral one".  The name reflected the assumption that it had no electric \ncharge (so that the law of charge conservation would remain intact); \nadditionally, it was postulated to have zero spin (keeping the law of \nconservation of angular momentum) and to interact only weakly with matter (to \nexplain why it was virtually undetectable). Eventually the neutrino was \ndetected, in the early 1950's, through nuclear reactors (which produce huge \nnumbers of neutrinos).  Currently it is believed that there are three kinds of \nneutrinos (plus their antiparticles, making a total of six) -- the electron-\nneutrino, the muon-neutrino, and the tau-neutrino.  Neutrinos are considered \nto be the force-carriers associated with the fundamental force called the weak \nforce. The weak force is very important -- it contributes to the production of \nelements of higher atomic number, without which life as we know it would be \nimpossible.

how can you fix a DELL 600 laptop which shuts down the AC adapter as soon as you plug in?

there is a green lamp on the AC adapter. does this lamp light wenn the AC adapter is connected to the outlet? is it still light when you push the ON-switch of the laptop?\nIf yes, you have a defective mainboard (more precise, a defective internal power module - this is the weak point of the most Dell laptops).\nbut - if the green lamp on the AC adapter dim when you push the ON-switch, there is most likely a short circuit on the mainboard.

why aren't scientist terraforming mars right now?

First to answer you second question: No we’re not terraforming Mars at present. Now for the first question: At this present point our technological development is woefully adequate to handle the issues of keeping this planet’s atmosphere from going into a greenhouse condition. Furthermore, it has taken by some estimate approximately 75 to 100 years for us to bring about this greenhouse climate change, which in a crude sense is a form of terraforming.\n\nThe idea that we could terraform Mars at this present time would be extremely impractical, it would cost hundreds of trillions of dollars, and it would take a very long time to see any results (on the order of hundreds of years). Plus you’d have to figure in the technology needed for such an undertaking, which although is probably available (with our technical capabilities), we’d then have to figure out how we’ll get it there. This would be no small undertaking. You have to remember that Mars has an atmospheric pressure that is less than 1/10 that of Earth and it has a very scant amount of water free-flowing on its surface. The vast majority of the water is locked up in the polar icecaps. Therefore we’d have to increase the amount of Oxygen as well as the atmospheric pressure and free up most if not all of the water on the planet. Plus we’d have to somehow produce an Ozone layer in the Martian atmosphere. Not to mention that Mars doesn’t have an electromagnetic field anywhere near the strength of ours. So basically there would have to be a whole lot of work done to actually terraform Mars.\n\nThe likelihood that some one country could undertake the process of terraforming an entire planet at this time would be highly unlikely.

What's your greatest fear re: The War in Iraq?

My greatest fear is that this war will suck up so much of our resources, i.e, money, soldiers, aid, ect.  I also fear that others will attack us because we will be so consumed by it.  I think America's time as a superpower is coming to an end. England used to be the greatest country, now they don't have as much.  Another thing I am afraid of is that people will get the wrong idea about democracy.  You can not force it on people who don't want anything to do with it.  That is not what democracy is about.  I don't want the soldiers to be treated like the Vietnam vets.  My husband was in the service and was called a baby killer, in our own town, a couple of years ago.  He didn't even go to Iraq!  There are also POW's who are taking down there flags because they are getting beat up by other Americans.  I am afraid this war will tear this country apart.  Sorry about rambling, but those are my fears.
