Internet2 or UCAID (University Corporation for Advanced Internet Development) is a non-profit consortium which develops and deploys advanced network applications and technologies, mostly for high-speed data transfer. "Internet2" is a registered trademark. It is led by 207 universities in the United States and partners from the networking (Cisco Systems), publishing (Prous Science) and technology industries (such as Comcast, Intel, Sun Microsystems). Some of the technologies it has developed include IPv6, IP multicasting and quality of service.\n\nInternet2 (and its members) created the Abilene Network and frequently collaborates with the National LambdaRail (NLR) project. In fact, Internet2 and National LambdaRail are planning to merge sometime soon, which likely means somewhere in the 2006-2009 timeline. More information about discussions of the future Internet2/NLR merger is available at the official Internet2 website [1]. Another document summarizing the merger discussions as of early July 2005 is available here.\n[edit]\n\nInternet2 relationship to the Abilene Network\n\nIn light of a recent series of lawsuits filed by the Recording Industry Association of America against university students attending several of the major participants in Abilene, there has been a recent trend in the media to report on a network called "Internet2." Some sources go so far as to suggest Internet2 is a network wholly separate from the Internet. This is misleading since Internet2 is in fact a consortium and not a computer network. It is possible that many news sources have adopted the term Internet2 because it seems like a logical name for a next-generation Internet backbone. Articles that reference Internet2 as a network are in fact referring to the previously mentioned network backbone known as the Abilene Network. This forms a high-speed backbone by deploying many of the technologies developed by Internet2. Abilene, although a private network used for education and research, is not entirely an isolated network, since its members usually provide alternative access to many of their resources through the public Internet. Abilene is not technically part of the Internet since it does not peer with the public Internet networks.\n\nThe Abilene project is supported greatly by Qwest Communications through the use of Qwest's optical fiber networks. Internet2's Abilene transport agreement with Qwest is due to expire somewhere around October of 2007. [2]\n\nThe second generation of the Internet, developed by a consortium of more than 200 universities, private companies and the U.S. government. It was not developed for commercial use or to replace the Internet, but is the reincarnation of it, intended primarily for research. Whereas the Internet was first designed to exchange text, Internet2 is designed for full-motion video and 3D animations.\n\nOriginally named UCAID (University Corporation for Advanced Internet Development), Internet2 spawned the high-speed Abilene backbone. See Abilene, UCAID and vBNS.

can a project manager be responsible for auditing their own project performance metrics? Why or why not!?

If the metrics are being produced by some-one on the project team other than the project manager - perhaps a "project controls" person, then I would accept the project manager to perform some level of audit to ensure the data he's getting is appropriate.\n\nThere could still be another level audit/review, probably by the project sponsir, if the project has a high enough risk associated with it.\n\nIf the project manager is producing their own metrics directly, then it would seem to make less sense that they would formally audit their own work, but of course they would be checking their own calculations.

Can someone explain in full detail how salary caps work?

Well in football they have revenue sharing so all teams make a profit. Some teams are much more aggressive than others when it comes to advertising and marketing. The more aggressive ones have more profit to spend. So the NFL has a salary cap so all teams are on a level playing field as opposed to MLB which has a handful of big spenders and a bunch of small market teams. The salary cap is set according to a certain percentage of revenues taken in each year. Every year each team has to be under a certain limit, set by their Collective Bargaining Agreement, by the end of training camp. The way the owners circumvent the cap each year is to pay rather large signing bonus money up-front which is pro-rated over the course of the contract to spread the cap hit evenly. If a player is cut before the end of their contract the remaining pro-rated signing bonus is all lumped onto that last year which usually means a huge cap hit for that team. Alot of players sign huge contracts knowing full well they will never see the back-loaded contracts to their end, and they end up restructuring their contracts to accommodate the team if they really want to stay. So somewhere down the line difficult player cuts have to be made. Hence why you see teams letting older players go and keeping younger players , it all leads back to salary. Now they have what they call veteran minimums on contracts for older players, if you can convince a player with say 5 years experience to sign for a  veteran minimum the cap hit is not the complete total of the contract yet the player still makes a decent salary and the team gets to keep an experienced player for a lesser salary cap hit. This is the NFL's way of taking care of veterans yet while still considering the owners costs. Of course some owners don't manage their books correctly and end up sending their teams into a tailspin. They have all the signing bonuses and big contracts end up hurting them in the long run and have some down years. Now some teams don't even approach the salary cap spending limit which really bugs the owners who market aggressively and have more revenues. But this also keeps things even because it would just lead to the problems seen in MLB, the haves and the have-nots. Most teams have what they call a salary cap guru to keep things under control. Some are successful, some aren't. It all boils down to fiscal responsibilty and due diligence. I hope this helps you understand what can be a difficult thing to follow.

The ancient peoples of Europe were more fond of masks and religious ritual than you would suspect if you saw Europeans today. Mask wearing and shamanism was part and parcel of everyday life in ancient Western European tradition. \n\nThere are stories abound about African and North American tribal shamans but not a lot is known about ancient European peoples' involvement with masked ritual or the practice of magic. That is why finding out about similarities between the ideas behind masks from around the world and those originating from European soil, is a discovery of intriguing and yet no less real beliefs. \n\nThe less obvious link of European societies with shamanism or religious ritual than for instance the North American native Indian customs or magic activity in the past is due to the more 'sanitised' way Europe has developed because of church interference in people's lives. The church dominance virtually stamped out any pagan ritual. It was not until after 1960, when the Americans experienced a revival of the interest in shamanism, that much has become known about the European version of the practice of magic and mask wearing. There is more verifyable information about the true roots of Western European civilisation than initially suspected. \n\n"The spirit if not the exact practise of shamanism has been passed on through Europe's generations", one authority on the subject, Leigh Ann Hussey, believes. The earliest recordings of ceremonies involving masks were found in the caves of the Trois Freres (Three Brothers) in France where paintings of a Paleolithic scene depicting European animism of the first order. \n\nIan Bracegirdle, a mask expert, describes the cave: A central figure stands wearing the head and antlers of a deer. He stands, shaman like, surrounded by animals. Animals that are important to the culture he represents. Some of the animals no longer exist in this area. Ibex, reindeer, bison, stag and horses. The shaman, for that is what he seems to be, stands, a human figure amongst the potential food. \n\nIt is believed that the paleolithic cave served as a place where hunters were initiated. The sorceror or shaman was symbol to sympathetic magic. He wore ears and horns of a stag, the eyes and beak of an owl, the bearded face of an old man, the tail of a wolf, the paws of a bear and the legs of a dancing shaman. He stood in front of painted hunting murals. The Shaman served as mediator between humans and their venerated animal kin. \n\nThis is pretty much the best evidence in tangible form that we have of our ancestors' animistic beliefs. It dates back 10,000 years and is accompanied by an abundance of myths and stories showing our ancestors had plenty of similar ideas. A close analogy exists in the stories of Kernunnos, forest god of the later Celts. The masks express animism to some extent. \n\nHis information is confirmed by Ms Hussey, who went on a hunt in European shamanism and found when she examined ancient sources, that she did not need to borrow from other traditions. "It is clear that tribal Europe had as strong a shamanic tradition as, for example, any of the American Indian tribes," she said. \n\nSumming up the general symbolism that unites masks from around the globe, Bracegirdle says that there are many striking similarities between the ancient cultures of the Pacific West Coast of North America and the tribal traditions of Africa. Symbols that all these cultures share are relating to fertility, the hunted animal, ancestors, initiation into rites, circumcision, cannibalism real and symbolic, healing and crossing over into the spirit world for guidance and healing powers or to appease the gods or ancestors are the accompanying ideas behind masks. \n\nNot a lot has been passed on from generation to generation in any overtly recognisable form or shape, but among the most powerful links is the seasonal nature of many traditions we still know about. In the UK,


The country is still totally controlled by the Communist Party of China, which is the central government.  Individual provinces have their own governments, controlled by party members.\nBut economically, capitalism has been allowed to flourish, bringing prosperity to the country which communism failed to do.  The first people to benefit from this are the Communists - very ironically, the sworn opponents of capitalism!  Hopefully, however, the centralisation of power and national planning will channel this new money the right way.  The government has just announced it's latest 5-year plan for the rural (agricultural) sector (most Chinese are still down on the farm, and poor).  All agricultural taxes have been abolished and many measures will be taken to help the farmers. One wishes them every success in this worthwhile endeavour.

google search string [ screen name ]\n--------------------\nScreen name (computing)\nFrom Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia\n\nA screen name or screenname is a name or string of characters chosen to uniquely identify a user within an online system, including dial-up bulletin board systems, platform videogame servers, and Internet-based environments. The term started out as screen name (two words), but in recent years, the usage of the single-word form screenname has been steadily increasing. "sn" can also mean screen name in online contexts.\n\nA screen name is frequently limited in length and character composition by the technical restrictions of the applications for which it is used, such as e-mail, instant messaging, or file sharing. For example, Prodigy (ISP) online service originally assigned non-word alphanumeric strings as screen names, and Compuserve online service originally assigned only numeric strings. Screen names are often pseudonyms or first names, many times complemented by extra numbers, letters, or other characters to disambiguate them from users with similar screen names on the same system; this practice is increasingly common as the popularity of online environments grows and the availability of unique identifiers dwindles.\n\nThe term 'screen name' was originally coined by the America Online service, and, strictly speaking, does not apply in cases other than usernames for the AOL and AOL-owned CompuServe services. Outside the AOL milieu, it is much more common to use the synonyms 'handle,' 'username,' 'user id', or 'nickname' (shortened to 'nick' in the IRC environment). The use of 'screen name' is often used as a reverse shibboleth by old timers to identify those who are newer to the online world.\n\nHow much a screen name means in reference to its owner usually depends on number of accounts, and length of use. When a person uses the same identity for multiple services, then it probably means something to them personally, such as a nickname or a running joke. People who are not able to obtain their desired screen name on a popular service may make minor typographical changes to the name by adding numbers or changing spelling, resulting in a multitude of usernames like 'sUprlver98' and 'sexy_style665'. Choosing the wrong screen name may result in ostracism from a given community, especially for being a "n00b."\n\n-----------------------\nIn a computer network, a screen name is the name a user chooses to use when communicating with others online. A screen name can be a person's real name, a variation of the person's real name, or it can be be a totally made-up pseudonym (handle). Screen names are required for instant messaging (IM) applications.

Where is the most remote place in the world?

The Bovet Island, this is the most isolated isle on Earth, The Bovet island is not close to any land mass but it is the closer too the Antarctica than any other land, It is a uninhabited island and territory of Norway. \n\nIt used to be a Norwegian whaling outpost, now the only thing on this Island is a mainly automatic research outpost. \n\nThe Bovet iland is more isolated and unhiabited than Antarcita since Antartica has a few thousand researches more or less permanently living and studying on Anarctica, \n\nThe Bovet island had a 5.5 earth quacke on it a little over one week ago, that thus it didn't damage the research outpost.\n\nIf you would like to go there you can travel by ship. \nThe pinguins there wear suits, so I guess a tux would be the correct evening wear.\n\nHope this answered your question

Is it true that european guys are into african american woman more than white guys and where can i find them.?

I don't think it's a matter of American white men being less into us. It's more a matter of "historical time" consideration. Europe has much more of that commodity than the U.S. I've spent time in Europe, and received a lot of attention from the men (granted, I am racially-mixed - Native American, African American and Caucasian - but my African heritage is apparent). Here in the U.S., I get that attention a little less frequently, even though I wish that weren't the case. \n\nI love men of all colors, cultures amd ethnicities - but especially white men. I just wish that white man/black woman love matches were as frequent as those of black man/white woman here in this country.\n\nSooo, back to the last part of your question...you can find them where ever you are.

what is the normal life span of a person with hepatitus c?

Most people, because they feel well and have no symptoms, don't know they have HCV infection.\n\nSome people may have a brief illness with symptoms of hepatitis usually appearing six to twelve weeks after they have been infected with the virus. Symptoms of acute hepatitis C infection may include: fever, tiredness, jaundice [yellow skin or eyes], abdominal pain, dark urine, loss of appetite, nausea [sick to your stomach].\n\nA few people will begin to experience long-term health concerns such as tiredness, lethargy or digestive problems.\n\nAbout seven out of ten people who become infected with HCV will carry the virus throughout their lives. These people remain infectious and run the risk of becoming ill at sometime in the future.\n\nThis long-term or chronic HCV infection may lead to scarring of the liver, called cirrhosis. The chance of developing cirrhosis increases with the length of infection. After twenty years, about two out of ten people with hepatitis C will have cirrhosis. People who drink alcohol are at greater risk of damaging their liver. Cirrhosis can lead to liver failure or liver cancer in a small number of people.Everyone is different and with proper care and taking care of oneself a normal lifespan is possible

What are the effects of the element radium?

Radium\nI  INTRODUCTION \n\nRadium (Latin, radius,”ray”), symbol Ra, chemically reactive, silvery-white, radioactive metallic element. In group 2 (or IIa) of the periodic table, radium is one of the alkaline earth metals. The atomic number of radium is 88.\n\nRadium was discovered in the ore pitchblende by the French chemists Marie Curie and Pierre Curie in 1898. They discovered that the ore was more radioactive than its principal component, uranium, and they separated the ore into many chemical fractions in order to isolate the unknown sources of radioactivity. One fraction, isolated by use of bismuth sulphide, contained a strongly radioactive substance that the Curies showed was a new element, polonium. A highly radioactive barium chloride fraction was treated to remove the radioactive substance, which was discovered to be a new element, radium.\n\nII  PROPERTIES AND OCCURRENCE \n\nRadium-226 metal melts at about 700° C (about 1292° F), and has a relative density of 5.5. The element oxidizes immediately upon exposure to air. The element is used and handled in the form of radium chloride or radium bromide and practically never in the metallic state.\n\nRadium is formed by the radioactive disintegration of uranium and is consequently found in all uranium ores. Radium is present in uranium ore to the extent of one part of radium to three million of uranium. It is extracted from the ore by the addition of a compound of barium that acts as a “carrier”. The chemical properties of radium are similar to those of barium, and the two substances are removed from the other components of the ore by precipitation of barium and radium sulphate. The sulphates are converted into carbonates or sulphides, which are then dissolved in hydrochloric acid. The radium is separated from the barium as the end result of successive crystallizations of the chloride solutions.\n\nOf the isotopes of radium, ranging in mass number from 206 to 232, the most abundant and most stable is the isotope of mass 226. Radium-226 is formed by the radioactive disintegration of the thorium isotope of mass 230, which is the fourth successive isotope in the decay series starting with uranium-238. The half-life of radium-226 is 1,620 years. It emits alpha particles, forming the gas radon.\n\nIII  USES \n\nRadiation from radium has a harmful effect upon living cells, and radium burns are caused by overexposure to the rays. Cancerous cells, however, are often more sensitive to radiation than normal cells, and such cells may be killed without seriously injuring healthy tissue by controlling the intensity and direction of the radiation. Radium is now used in the treatment of only a few kinds of cancer; radium chloride or radium bromide is enclosed in a sealed tube and inserted in the diseased tissue. When a radium salt is mixed with a substance such as zinc sulphide, the substance is caused to luminesce by the bombardment of the alpha rays emitted by the radium. Small amounts of radium were once used in the production of luminous paint, which was applied to clock dials, doorknobs, and other objects, to make them glow in the dark.

what is the leading vitamin or organ deficiency for eczema?

Essential Fatty Acids  See: http://www.causeof.org/efa_d.htm\n\nBUT\n\nI don't believe there is an answer for that question. I believe that excema stems from allergy of some substance. It's very hard to determin sometimes what that is. Probiotics and Essensial Fatty acids have the best results as far a deficiencys go.    \nI think if it were as simple as a deficiency there would be a treatment that worked (that was safe i.e. unsafe; elidil).\nLook at doctoryourself.com for the best vitamin/ nutrition info.


I dont think so, but its not good to discuss this!


Is it always best to keep in touch with ex-girlfriends, or should I just stop talking to them all together?

Move on.. grow up. If you parted ways on a positive note, keep it that way. So when you "accidentally" meet them elsewhere someday, you can still say "HI" with both your heads up.\n\nStop keeping in touch... this will give them false hopes - unless you intend to get back together. Just move on with your respective lives with no hurt feelings.


What is the difference in ionic and covalent bonding?

To put it very simply,\nin a covalent bond, the atoms share electrons,\nin an ionic bond, electrons from one atoms are totally removed and added to the other atom, forming ions.\n\nBut in all bonds, there is some degree of sharing, even ionic.  Atoms of different elements "pull" on electrons with different strengths, the stronger the pull (larger electron negativity), the more time the electron will be found around that atom as opposed to the other.\n\nHydrogen gas (H2) is a good example of a covalent bond between two of the same elements, in this case, they share the electrons perfectly since they both have the same electron negativity.\n\nHF, or Hydrogen Floride is an example of a very ionic bond, with an electronegativity difference of 2.0 (4.1 - 2.1).  In this case, the electrons being shared spend almost all of thier time around the Floride ion, making that side develop a negative charge whereas the Hydrogen develops a positive charge.

Unfortunately, it was created to satisfy the needs of the military for a weapon so awesome it would frighten the axis powers into surrendering in World War II.  After the war was over, since the genie could not be stuffed back into its bottle, science found peaceful uses, such as atomic power plants and nuclear medicine.  Now we even have such things as an atomic clock, which uses the breakdown of a radioactive material to keep time very precisely.  I hope more peaceful uses continue to be found, such as powering spaceships to go exploring.


give facts about the center of the earth?

The Earth can be divided into three large sections: the mantle, inner core, and outer core. The inner core is at the center of the earth. The pressure and temperature of the earth increases as one moves closer to the center. The inner core of the earth is about 7000 degree Celsius.


For something to be dated using a radioactive technique, it has to include radioactive materials. Granite is radioactive (see attached), but its level of radioactivity is usually quite low (no more than any other natural material). This makes dating granite a bit challenging, but it can be done (see example in 2nd reference). Granite usually contains a little U-238 which does decay, and this can be used to date granite. It also contains some Rb-87 which decays into Sr-87, and the Rb-Sr dating techniques can be used to date granite.


Is Gravity reflected to our universe from an alternate dimension?

I'm interested in what kind of answers you'll get to this question.  The fact of the matter is, no one really knows what gravity is or where it gets it's energy from.  One of the few things that are known about gravity is that it is not effect by space and time like light.

In the container shipping biz, what does "teu" stand for (relating to capacity)?

Container capacity (of ships, ports, etc) is measured in twenty-foot equivalent units (TEU, or sometimes teu). A twenty-foot equivalent unit is a measure of containerized cargo capacity equal to one standard 20 ft (length) × 8 ft (width) × 8.5 ft (height) container. In metric units this is 6.10 m (length) × 2.44 m (width) × 2.59 m (height), or approximately 39 m3. Most containers today are of the 40-ft variety and thus are 2 TEU. 45 ft containers are also designated 2 TEU. Two TEU are referred to as one forty-foot equivalent unit (FEU).


How can an Intersexual person be sure he/she is obeying the laws prohibiting homosexual relations?

This would be something out of that person's control.  God will not bear onto a soul except for that which it can tolerate.  Since it isn't clear which sex this person is, maybe a homosexual act wouldn't be as harshly judged.  Afterall, being an intersexual seems like enough of a trial.\n\nAnd God only knows best

If you are not a minor then you hopefully have matured into making wise decisions and age at that point doesn't really amtter. Think before you act. Good luck.

where is the prostate located in men?  in that back or front?

The prostate is a walnut-shaped gland that surrounds the urethra. Along with the seminal vesicles it produces the fluid secretions that support and nourish the sperm.\nIt's located in the back just behind and near the final part of the Rectum. In fact, the urologists control it putting a finger inside the anu*s!


what kind of legal rights can a first time offender of making illegal drugs have in ohio?

I am not familiar with Ohio law, but he should have ONLY these rights:\n\nThe right to a fair trial and answer to society about his activities.\nIf he is guilty, he should have the right to sit in prison for his ENTIRE sentence.\nAfter he serves his time, he should have the right to be forced to contribute to the education of our country's youth about the dangers of drugs.\n\nSorry to ramble on, but the fact that we as a country, tolerate drugs by handing down weak sentences for "first time offenses" only makes the problem worse.  If we would punish them severely, others might think twice.\n\nI know you may not like what I am saying, but that is only because you are the one who has been caught or are connected to that person.  If you were not connected to drugs in any way and had your home broken into by drug addicts so they could obtain the means for another fix, you might see it my way.\n\nUntil then, JUST SAY NO!


Seems like all the sudden I have joint pain &swelling ,?

A doctor better examine you and you should do blood test before we can say anything. If tests where normal then it is likely that you have an overall body weakness. ALL your muscles are very weak and you should strengthen them. By strengthening your muscles the pressure would be on the on the muscle and not the joint! Another reasons could be of over weigth. You haven't mentioned it thought but if you are over weighted then you should control your diet. Again, I don't tell you to starve coz you don't wannu burn muscles too. \n\nIn conclusion, I think you should consult and always be in touch with a 'physiotherapist' (of course after you saw a doctor I mentioned above) to show you the proper exercises so that you can strengthen your muscles.


Do you consider the morning after pill a form of abortion?  Birth control pills?

You're right.  The "Morning After Pill" is a super-high dose of female hormones, like those contained in 28-day birth control pills.  The morning after pill works by preventing you from ovulating if you are near to doing so in your cycle.  No egg = no fertilization = no baby.  Additionally, some research suggests that it *may* prevent a fertilized egg from implanting in the uterine lining.  However, there does not seem to be any definitive answer on this as of yet.  If you are *already* pregnant by the time you take the morning after pill, it will have no effect upon you.\n\nThe 'abortion pill' (RU-486) however, induces miscarriage of a pregnancy that is established.  It first terminates the pregnancy, then causes severe cramping and spasming of the uterus (similar to the muscle spasm experienced during mensturation) which expells the contents of the uterus. \n\nAs to whether the morning after pill or traditional birth control pills can be considered a form of abortion - this depends on what your definition of abortion is.  If you define it as termination of an established pregnancy, then no, they are not.  However, as the pill can prevent a fertilized egg from implanting in the uterus, one could also argue that it *does* qualify as abortion.  It depends entirely on your perspective.

how to diagnose my childs illness using their signs and symptoms?

Lady, get off your computer and go to the emergency department. NOW. That wasn't meant to be insulting. Why would you ask someone who is probably sitting at home watching Oprah?\n\nYou know...I think Yahoo Answers may need to discontinue the Medicine/Disease section on this thing. There are too many people asking serious medical questions and relying on complete strangers who often have little or no medical background and who leave stupid, misleading, or unproven answers. I hope their legal department has looked at this thoroughly.


What do you do when you are not in love with you husband at all and in love with someone else very deeply?

The statistics say that 78% of people in unhappy marriages will find their marriage "very" or "quite" happy within 5 years if they stick it out.  Also, only 25% of single and divorced people find that they are “very” or “quite” happy with there life, this includes people who remarry.  So statistically speaking, your chances of happiness increase if you stay married to your husband.  However, you will never be happy or be able to fall back into love with your husband without putting in some work.  You can take the statistical chance and leave him for your other lover and risk being unhappy or you can cut the other relationship off and have a better chance of being happy and in love with your husband.  You are also running the risk of finding yourself in the same predicament that you are in now with your other person if you don’t tackle the underlying issues that you have.  You need to find out what causes you to fall in and out of love with people and deal with your issues with fidelity,  Bottom line, you are the only one who can make that decision, but weight the risks and benefits of each very carefully.


The word you want is Katzchen, with an umlaut (two dots, like a horizontal colon [:] ) over the 'a'. To pronounce it, purse your lips while you say the first syllable, so it almost sounds like 'kitchen'.  The word literally means 'little cat'. It's what is called a diminutive term. The closest English equivalent would be something like 'ling'. You could say 'Catling', and people would know you ment a small or immature cat.  Does that help?

how much would i have to put away in a saving with 4.5% yeild to get interest of 120 a month?

To simplify calculations, lets just use the formula for simple interest:\n\nI = 12i = Prt , where:\n\nI = yearly interest\ni = monthly interest\nP = amount to be saved\nr = yearly interest rate, in decimal form\nt = time, in this case, 1 year.\n\nSolution:\n\nI = 12i = Prt\n\n1440 = 12(120) = P(0.045)(1)\n\n1440 = 0.045P\n\n0.045P = 1440\n\nP  =  32,000.00\n\nTherefore, you will have to save around $ 32,000 (in the bank?)

In California, under Peanl Code, do I have the right to make a police report?

A report about what?  There is no "right" in the penal code to make a report about anything you want to report.  Law enforcement agencies typically only take reports about crimes, and if you don't want to report an actual crime, you might not have a real-live, offical police report taken.\n\nPost some more information; I'll keep an eye on the question and maybe we can get this sorted out for you.  What is it you're wanting to report?\n\nEDIT 2/17/06:\n\nIf you want an intelligent answer, don't get snippy with the folks you're asking questions of.  If this is how you are with Cathedral City, that might explain why you're not getting the cooperation you'd like.\n\nI did answer part of your question, based on what you asked.  Nowhere in the Penal Code do you have the "right" to file a police report.  There are several sections that require law enforcement to take a report, but that's not the same and conspiracy and resisting arrest are not among them.  \n\nSpeaking of those sections, I doubt very much that Cathedral City is going to take a 148 PC report from you unless you are a peace officer or are otherwise entitled to be covered under that section.  148 PC is the crime of resisting, delaying, or obstructing a peace officer in the performance of their duties.  If you're not one, there's nothing for you to report.\n\nAs for the conspiracy you want to report, I'll just assume that you know what you're talking about and know what it takes to be charged with and guilty of conspiracy.  If that's the case, and if the PD won't accept a report from you, and you've exhausted your other opportunities within the PD (asking to speak with a watch commander, making an appointment to talk with the patrol commander, etc.), then I would recommend you contact the District Attorney's office in that county and ask to speak with a DA investigator (or inspector, or whatever they call them down there, it varies from office to office).\n\nYour comment about "EVERY State in the Union has codes to allow for police reports, complaints against officers, and arrests" is very likely true, though it isn't what you originally asked.  California has over 29  different statutory codes and some of them allow for police reports.  You can view the whole collection at the link below, in fact.\n\nCalifornia has Penal Code sections that discuss filing complaints against peace officers.  Using the link below, you can review sections 832.5 and 148.6 PC for more information.\n\nI don't know what you mean about every state having codes to allow for arrests, so I won't comment (it seems fairly obvious, so maybe I'm missing something).\n\nYour question was poorly worded and incomplete.  You made a number of assumptions in both the original question and in your follow-up comments, and you clearly lack some perspective (just because you're asking the question about reporting a crime does not mean that you really have a crime to report...people come in all the time to report the crime of "harrassment," and generally speaking, no such crime exists...so it's not unreasonable for me to wonder if you really have a crime to report).  When I answered part of your question and asked for more clarification, you got a little snippy with me.  \n\nIf you really want to work with the justice system and get the cooperation you're looking for and deserve, bring the attitude down a few thousand feet before you continue.  Get your *facts* (I really can't stress that word enough)together, ask reasonable questions and insist on reasonable answers.  \n\nI suspect there won't be any more answers here to your question because I haven't seen any California cops here besides me, so far.  That, plus what comes across as some attitude, is probably going to keep any of them from talking to you anyway.  However, if you'd like to discuss the situation furthe

Who is Dennis Lynn Rader and what does BTK mean?

B= blind\nT= torture\nK= kill\nDennis Lynn Rader (born March 9, 1945) is an American serial killer, who murdered at least ten people in Sedgwick County (in and around Wichita), Kansas, United States, between 1974 and 1991. He was known as the BTK killer (or strangler), which stands for Bind, Torture, and Kill, which was his modus operandi. Letters were written soon after the killings to police and to local news outlets, boasting of the crimes and knowledge of details. After a long hiatus, these letters resumed in 2004.\nOn Friday, February 25, 2005, Rader, a city Compliance Officer, former Cub Scout leader, and Lutheran congregation council president, was detained near his home at 6220 61st and Independence in Park City, Kansas and accused of the BTK killings. At a press conference the next morning, Wichita Police Chief Norman Williams flatly asserted, "the bottom line is that BTK has been arrested." Rader pled guilty to his crimes on June 27, 2005, giving a graphic, almost surreal account of his crimes in court [1]. He was sentenced to serve 10 consecutive life sentences, without possibility of parole for 175 years, on August 18, 2005. This includes nine life sentences each without the possibility for parole for 15 years, and one life sentence without the possibility for parole for 40 years.\n\nTo learn more about the BTK killer biography click here(very interesting)\nhttp://www.crimelibrary.com/serial_killers/unsolved/btk/18.html

GREEN DAY sings punk or alternative rock?

Categorizing music from today's culture seems to become harder and harder with the release of each album.  We hear terms like "Country Rock, Adult Alternative, and Gangster Rap."  Every time you place a label on an album or artist someone else comes up with another label.\n\nAs for Green Day, given the two options you posted I would have to say Alternative Rock is the best fit.  Punk rock tends to have less vocals and strains more on the bands skills.  Alternative music consists of more rhythmic vocals and tunes.\n\nHope that helps.


Do you think the USA citizens should maintain the right to own and bear arms.?

The thought that America is at war with "muslims"... is way off base.  Not to mention wrong... but that's not the question here, so I won't dwell on that.  The right to bear arms has been a corner stone if you will of this country from the start.  Times though have changed from then to now, it was more so a way to keep our country safe from invasion.  As more and more states create an easier method for obtaining concealed gun permits, the crime rates are starting to drop.  Now I'm not saying that murder rates in some places don't rise.  But the majority of the car jackings and home invasions, seem to be dropping.  You won't stop the drug related murders.  Not to mention, the number of gun related crimes commited by those who have the concealed weapons permits are very small.  Those who legally obtain understand the responsablilty that's involved and are very cautious with regards to thier weapons.  The Brady Law, did little for the country with regards to assault weapons, and the fact that it's no longer in effect, speaks for itself.  Not to mention it made no sense at all, seeing that Brady and Reagen were shot with a small caliber hand gun.


That depends on what you mean by "computer".  The basis of any computing machine is the ability to do input, processing and output.  The core of what makes it a computer is to handle "whatif" questions and to respond differently based on the answer to those questions.  For example, to say, "If the dollar amount is less than X then do this, but if it's greater than X then do that.\n\nBy that definition, the first true computer would probably be Charles Babbage's "Difference Engine" built in the late 1800s.  An improved version, which he called the "Analytical Engine" actually accepted punch card programs, the first of which was written by Lord Byron's daughter, Ada Lovelace, making her the world's first computer programmer.\n\nThe first truly modern electronic computer was, arguably, the ENIAC developed for the US Army by the University of Pennsylvania.  I say "arguably" because it depends on which features you want to include in the definition of "modern electronic computer."  For example, the ENIAC had no stored memory and had to be rewired for each program.\n\nHope this helps.

How can I tell an older kid that I can sit where I want without getting in a fight or getting suspended?

Simple.\nSit there.  If he asks you to move, say no.\nIf he tried to start a fight, don't participate.\nIf he hits you, tell a teacher.  That way, he is suspended.\nJust don't fight back.\n\nThis answers your question.\nHowever, personally, I would sit there until he hit me.  Then, I would fight back.\nIf suspended, my father would congratulate me for not letting others push me around...so long as I (1) did not start the fight, and (2) tried to avoid the fight.

Will House and Stacy end up together on the tv show House, MD?

I'm going to say no because Sela Ward is simply a guest star, and if she's leaving, her character will go with her.\n\nForeman's just going to go back to his original position.  He only had to supervise House for a couple of weeks.\n\nI like the show because the actors do a great job with their characters.

Did the founding fathers of the United States find guidance from Martin Luther's reformation?

My answer would be yes due to the Fact that the founding fathers understood the value of human rights thus the "Declaration of Independence" was born. The reformation in reality was the reforming of the peoples mind and the understanding of what "SELF EVIDENT" meant. One Nation Under God, "indivisable" meant you could nt be seperated from the devine.. "In him we live, breath, move and have our existance, with liberty and Justice  for all...these liberties where granted by the supreme creator of the universe, and our founding fathers along with Martin Luther knew this, they preached it, practiced it, and most of all, LIVED IT....MAY GOD BLESS


How can a major corporation turn over  stock shares to the state 32 years after purchase?

"PepsiCo, Inc. was founded in 1965 through the merger of Pepsi-Cola and Frito-Lay."\n\nSince the certificate was not turned in for reissue at any point after this merger, the company turned it over to the state as unclaimed property. You need to contact the state and find out the procedure for getting it back. You should be entitled to getting the shares back which you could then send to the stock transfer agent for issuing in the new shares with accrued dividends.

What can I do besides taking medicine to rid of a sinus infection?

It may sound very bizarre, but if you are all stuffed up and can't blow your nose4...find a way to get yourself to cry. Either that or the steam from taking a hot shower will get the mucous flowing in your sinuses again so you can blow your nose and get it the infection out of your head as soon as possible. Whatever you do, do not sniffle or snuff as this will cause your ears to back up and get infected also. \n\nAlso, chewing peppermint gum or sucking on mint candy like candy canes helps to clear nasal passages quicker than most cough drops. Hope you feel better soon!


what is your opinion about women rights in islam?

if "women rights" in your opinion is when a woman gets money for showing her body as a tool for advertisment and being so cheap ... then no, we muslims have no women rights\n\n\n\n\n\n\nUNLESS you mean women right to go work in a safe working condition and having the right to vote then yes we have women rights since 1400 yrs ago up to this minute.\n\n\n\nabout the retards husbands that treats their wives badly we can find those retards in any religon and not only Islam.\n\n\n\n\n\nProphet Muhammad (may peace and blessings of God be upon him) said: "Treat women well and be kind to them; they are your partners and committed helpers\n\n\n\n\nProphet Muhammad(PBUH) said: "Only an honorable man treat women with honor and integrity. And only a mean, deceitful and dishonest man humiliates and insults women." Referring to physical abuse, he added: "Never hit your wives, they are your partners and sincere helpers." He exemplified this by never, ever, hitting a women or child. The Prophet guaranteed protection of the life, honor, and property of women.

Naturopaths vary widely--and I mean WIDELY--in what they do but basically it's someone who believes that nearly all illnesses are either preventable or reversible through proper diet and healthy lifestyle choices.  \n\nNaturopaths come in all shapes and sizes.  Some are M.D.s, some are PhDs, and some have no formal training at all.  Some states license them just like (or close to) M.D.s while in other states naturopathy is illegal.  See what I mean by "widely"?  ;-)  \n\nThe best are both M.D.s and N.D.s.

Is Jim Morrison alive? Is Paul McCartney dead?

Jim Morrison is dead - Paul McCartney is alive.\n\nMorrison moved to Paris in March 1971 with the intention of taking a break from performing and concentrating on his writing.\n\nHe died soon thereafter on 3 July 1971, in his bathtub at the age of 27; many fans and biographers have speculated that the cause of death was a drug overdose, but the official report listed "heart failure" although there was apparently no autopsy performed.\n\nIn his book Wonderland Avenue, former Doors associate Danny Sugerman recounts that he briefly met with Pamela Courson when she returned to America in the mid-1970s. According to his account, Courson told him that Morrison had indeed died of a heroin overdose, and that she had administered it to him, since Morrison was reputedly afraid of needles and would not inject himself. Courson herself died of an overdose not long after her meeting with Sugerman.\n\nMorrison is buried in the famous Père Lachaise cemetery in eastern Paris. In the past, some of his fans were nuisances, leaving litter, graffiti, and cannabis behind to the point where the gravesite is surrounded by a fence. In 1993, his parents visited the site and made arrangements with a cleaning company to have the graffiti removed from the nearby tombstones. (WGS84: N48°51´33.8´´ E02°23´37.2´´)\n\nSome conspiracy theorists contend that Morrison did not die in Paris. The fact that only two people saw his body has helped the rumor last over the past forty years. In fact, the doctor who signed the autopsy wasn't seen by anyone, and the only person to come forward and claim to have seen the body was Pam.\n\nAccording to friends and bandmembers of Morrison's, he planned to fake his death and move to Africa to avoid unwanted publicity. He told them that after arriving in Africa he would write to them under pseudonym, as "Mr. Mojo Risin'" - according to Robbie Krieger and other Doors members, they have yet to receive any letters; but many fans still feel his death was a hoax.\n\n\n\nOn 20 October 2001 McCartney took a lead role in organising the Concert for New York City, a celebration of the resilience, and pride of New York and America in response to the September 11 terrorist attacks. The concert was held at Madison Square Garden and featured performances by The Who, the Backstreet Boys, Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, David Bowie, Billy Joel, Destiny's Child, Eric Clapton, Adam Sandler, Bon Jovi, Elton John, James Taylor and many more. McCartney was the final performer and debuted his song "Freedom."\n\nMcCartney continues to release pop albums (Run Devil Run, Wingspan: Hits and History, Flaming Pie, Driving Rain, Chaos and Creation in the Backyard), as well as campaign for the groups Greenpeace and People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, among others.\n\nIn June 2002 McCartney married Heather Mills, a former model and anti-landmines campaigner, in a highly elaborate ceremony at Castle Leslie in Glaslough, County Monaghan, Ireland. He has joined with her to campaign against landmines, and he has donated substantial sums to the cause. In early 2003, for example, he held a personal concert for the wife of banker Ralph Whitworth and donated one million dollars to Adopt-a-Landmine. Paul and Heather's first child, Beatrice Milly, was born on October 28, 2003.\n\nMcCartney performed during the pre-game ceremonies at the NFL's Super Bowl XXXVI on 3 February 2002 and was the halftime performer at Super Bowl XXXIX on 6 February 2005. Unlike in many previous years, he was the only performer in the entire halftime show. His set consisted of "Drive My Car", "Get Back", "Live and Let Die" and "Hey Jude." It featured an interesting stage design, fireworks, and fan-held placards.\n\nMcCartney performed at the main Live 8 concert on 2 July 2005, playing "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" with U2 to open the Hyde Park event (the song

Why was the nomination of Samuel Alito to the Supreme Court contreversial?

ALL supreme court nominees are controversial, because a president nominates based on their political beliefs, then the nomination goes in front of a two-party legislature.  One party will be opposed and one will be for, unless the nominee sits squarely in the middle.  Mr. Alito leaned right, so the left wing was unhappy that he was nominated.

Is friction applied when you're in the air? or is that air resistance or something else?

They may call it friction but it's a misnomer.  There is skin friction, of course, which dissipates energy as heat, but much of the drag force is caused by imparting kinetic energy to the air mass, i.e., shoving it out of the way.  If you were shoving all the air downward that force would be called lift.  That energy may eventually be dissipated but it is theoretically recoverable. Friction dissipates energy as heat immediately.


where can i get definitions for terms used in the stock markets????

why is virginia and many northeast  states considered southern when they are geographically up north?

Because it was part of the SOUTH (1) During the division which led to the Civil War (it joined a newly created country called the Confederate States of America) and (2) It is part of the distinct culture which makes up the SOUTH.  Historically Virginia had much more in common with the states south and west of it than any state north of it.\n\nAnd besides it's not "up north".  Virginia's actually right in the middle as far as the Mexican/Canadian borders go.  But on the east coast, it's very much in the southern half of the coast.


London has many postal codes for different areas. The first letters indicate the geographical area and the numbers work out from the centre. Eg. N1 is North One, which is north of central but closer than N17 which is further from central.

Yes they can. Its called Bi- curius. Bi sexual is someone who has experiemented with both and actually knows they enjoy both sexes.


Bide your time.  If he is the guy for you, time will reveal all.  Be his friend, but nothing more.  If he's right for you, he will realize what an awesome chick you are and that he wants to be with you.  It sounds to me that he may have got tired of waiting for you and that's why is with someone now.  But as long you stay friends, the better your chances of his realizing how right you are for him.

Will it be wise step to invest in Iraq’s economy?

It may be because they will have a lot of backing from the US and other western nations/business/contractors. The US will look very foolish if Iraq fails economically so every step will be taken to guide them into prosperity. \n\nHowever, insurgency and other threats may seek to stall growth there which of course would make it a poor investment. \n\nIf the people view economic growth as a prosper for Iraqis and Muslims, then they will allow it to grow with US guidance. If they see it as another imposition of Western controll they will boycot and loot that growth. \n\nAn emerging markets investment may be a wiser choice.

I just heard O'Reilly say that liberals don't understand the threat against us, but...?

I think liberals have a valid point when they say that we have alienated some countries over Iraq, but most of those countries weren't really lining up to help us anyway. The prevailing attitude that you see with many liberals is that America's foreign policies are to blame for 9/11 and other terror attacks, and this is simply not true. The terrorists who attacked America on 9/11 were the same terrorist who attacked America several times during the Clinton administration, when Clinton went out of his way to be "the good guy" towards the islamic world. Foreign policy is not to blame. The terrorists simply hate the Israelis, and therefore, we are guilty by association.


advantages of franchising a business to the franchisor?

1. Franchisee provides the capital (not you) to expand the business, which in essence is using other people's money\n\n2. Access to motivated and trained managers - franchisees do not want to lose their investment so they want to make sure they have the best managers to run their franchised stores\n\n3. Greater efficiency - otherwise, franchisee loses money and that is always a great motivation\n\n4. Rapid expansion - you can immediately open stores in chosen geographic areas without you raising the capital for it\n\n5. Greater buying leverage - when purchasing materials and supplies, you get better deals because of your bulk purchase and you save money in the process\n\n6. Better locations - the more visible your business has become, the easier it is to attract landlords to your business; landlords want high-visible businesses in their rental property and if they know your business is in the best shopping malls or strip malls, they are more likely to give you concessions\n\n7. Market dominance - easier to squeeze out the competition with your strategic presence\n\n8. Greater resources for marketing - franchisees are often required to market the business and to contribute royalty fees for marketing allowing the company to pursue greater marketing opportunities\n\n9. Increased revenue sources = franchisor gets paid franchise fees, franchise royalty, equipment and supplies, and other fees and charges to franchisee and those constitute additional revenue stream for the franchisor.\n\n10. Greater growth potential - franchised business tend to grow faster and bigger\n\nHope this helps\nIsabel Isidro\nhttp://www.powerhomebiz.com


To some people, lunch is just that. Lunch.\n\nIt's not a promise of anything more, it's just something that friends do.  Women enjoy talking, and they like having some company.  Just because someone's in a relationship doesn't stop them doing that.\n\nAs a male I would go to lunch with anyone I want to spend time with - male or female, married or single - with no question of anything more than that.  It wouldn't be a 'date', just less boring than eating on my own.


Which one is the reality: This life, or the "next" life?

Both are the realities! This life is the qualifying round for the upcoming life, the life after death, the eternal life.

Is there such a court case where the change of venturee was from state to state?  Does change of venture only?

You mean change of vanue.  Venue is the county or the judicial district where the case will be heard.\n\nThe state courts do not have the power to transfer the case to another state.  The can only dismiss the case so that it can be refiled in the other state or they can transfer venue to another county within that state.\n\nIn federal court, you can change venue from one federal district court to another and this type of venue change can occur across state lines.
