I am happy one moment and then in a bad mood the next..is that wierd? what could it be?

If your change of mood is a reaction to external factors (harsh words, nasty behavior)-it is not "bi-polar", I think you are just "thin-skinned" and sensitive. It is difficult to be like that. I am like that, and I am a woman. As I understand, you are a guy, and it is even more difficult. You may try to cope with is yourself - for example, saying to youself after you hear something unpleasant:"It's only an opinion", or "Poor girl/guy, he's really unhappy if he behaves like that".  Do not take antidepressants - only in dire straits.It may seem easy - you take a pill, and life is beautiful and nice again. First - they do not make you happy. And mood swings can persist. And then - antidepressants slow you down, ruin your muscles tonus etc. Only in case of real neurosis and/or  depression you can take them, and never without a good doctor's advice. Try do fight your mood swings yourself. It requires  some kind of moral discipline, but it is possible. The moment you are unhappy -try to think about something good and beautiful, some good experience, for example. If you can think of nothing good -it may happen -try to stop thinking at all. Blank your mind for a while. Make efforts in order not to ruminate negative thoughts and bad things. If you can not make it on your own - go to a psychologist, a good one, again. But remember - no doctor can help you if you do not make your own efforts. It's about YOUR LIFE


How do you really know when someone is cheating?

Whether or not he's cheating seems almost beside the point, because it looks like the relationship is failing regardless.  Focus on that fact.  Sadly, it seems like you aren't as high a priority for him anymore.  You've been together since you were 20 and he was 17?  Wow.  Maybe you should date someone closer to your own age and maturity level.


Are Islamic Laws just that punish people who convert from Islam to another religion?

The laws are barbaric and extremely unfair. Actually, islamic law is rather barbaric. Nevertheless, the reason its barbaric is not because its islamic neccesarily. The reason its barbaric to us today is because these laws are ancient, dating millenia ago. While the laws in the rest of the world evolved through revolutions and were subject to the democratic process. The islamic law being fabricated in the islamc religion was a dogma and was not open to questioning. Questioning the law in islam is questioning allah and is considered unacceptable. However questioning the law in western societies is acceptable and therefore the law is evolving. I need to stress that it was the greeks 4000 before christ that developed democracy and a system where questioning the law was encouraged not punished.   4000 years ago most northern europeans were doing human sucrifises in line with the pre islamics (zoroastrians) who were quite barbaric.  The word barbaric by the way is a Greek word for bar bar ros  meaning the person that speaks bar bar and it refered to people of ancient germany who had a language that sounded like bar bar bar to the ancient greeks. The negative connotations associated with the word were developed because of the primitive brutal and uncivilised behaviour of those pre-germanic tribes.  So Western civilisation (Greek ideals) is very much different than islamic civilisation (dogma based)  Islamic countries are like Christian countries of the 17th century where religion was law.        \n\nMany muslims have argued against their laws but are condemed as sinners and end up tortured and in jail.  In the end of the day religions can be intepreted in any way possible.


It may be very challenging but not impossible. You are going the right way going to counseling.  Good luck!


what are the superstitions about finding a cross?

Some people equate finding a cross or other religious symbol with being an answer from God or a symbol of peace. As if to say, "I am with you, everything will be ok." Is there anything that's been bothering you lately, anything that you've asked the Lord for help in? Use this to help bring peace to your mind and to strengthen your faith. The Lord is by your side, He is with you; walk in confidence knowing this.


What are the differences between physical properties of covalent and ionic bonds?

Ionic bonds have really different electronegativity to the point where one atom really takes the electron and the other atom readily gives the electron.  Therefore, 2 ions (or more) are formed with opposing charges.  Since they are opposing, what happens is that they will be really stuck together at a fixed position.  Therefore, no sliding will occur.  The material will be brittle.  Fine examples are salts and rust.  If and when dissolved in a solvent, the ions seperate and yet maintain their charge.  Ions can come from a group of atoms (molecule) like CN or a single atom H.  But the results are not atoms, but ions such as CN- and Na+ (NaCN), which individually C and N of the CN- are not the ions, but the CN- is considered the ion.  Other examples of this is CO3 2- and Ca 2+ which together is CaCO3, a salt; again, the Carbon and the three Oxygen atoms are not the ions, but the group itself is considered an ion.\n\nCovalent bonding occurs between two atoms that are willing to share the electrons.  Sometimes, due to difference in electronegativity, there are unequal sharing but nonetheless sharing; note the difference cannot be to high or you'll get an ion.  Atoms are can be easier to slide like in a metal or be really difficult to move (like in silicate oxides and diamond).  It all depends.  Since there's a sharing of electrons, it is possible to have a dipole-dipole moment where electrons could concentrate themselves at one end or the other of the molecule; that is why I2 exists as a liquid, because of the looser valence electrons, there is a tenadancy for the electron density to shift from one to the other atom causing a propagative effect to other neighboring I2 molecules, which is the reason why it's the only diatomic molecule to be a liquid from all halides.  CN- has a covalent bond (triple bond).  CO3 2- also have covalent bonds.\n\nLooking at the periodic table, the electronegativity of a an element increases from the bottom to the top row and from the left to the right column (w/ exception of noble gases).  That means that the halides are extremely electronegative, which means they love electrons.  But, as you go down the list of halides, they love electrons less and less due to electron shielding - there are other electrons that are closer to the nucleus lessening the effective nuclear charge that is reaching the valence electrons.  Therefore, those electrons can be stripped from those heavier halides (like Iodine) as opposed to the halides that have less orbitals filled (like Fluorine).


What is electrical load forecasting and why is it important?

Load Forecasting, as is self evident, is simply forecasting the load that will be demanded at a particular time. let me draw you an analogy:\n\nSuppose you run a restaurant that serves fresh fish (sushi maybe) and crushed ice slushes, and to complicate things, you do not have  a freezer. you need to get your fish and ice from stores across town and cant store them for long. In what quantities would you buy your supplies to squeeze the maximum profit from your business?\n\nWhat you need is an accurate demand prediction system. If you know exactly that 20 people are going to order fish and 9 people slushes today at lunch, you can get the exact amount of supplies. you would do well if you had some ball park figures that are close, though not perfectly correct. You would do good to know factors like: today is extremely hot, you would sell more slushes. there was an article in the newspaper today about fish in the town being contaminated with mercury, sale today will be half of what it was today.\n\nI hope the analogy helps make the need for forecasting clear. the "no freezer" part is important because we have no effective way of storing excess elecrical power. If the power demand goes above rated online generation capacity at any given time, the grid becomes unstable and there is a danger of a brown out or even a black out. Keeping generation capacity online without demand is a waste of resources. It is ideal to keep the capacity slightly above current demand.\n\nNow imagine you had a mathematical model into which you can feed all your parameters and churn out the exact prediction of the demand.. that might actually be possible if the system was simple. like your one outlet restaurant. now imagine you run a chain of stores across the town, in neighbouring towns and neighbouring states too. Almost impossible to model mathematically.\n\nthis is where neural networks and fuzzy logic step in. you show a neural network how the demand had been varying over the lasf few years, while also showing it the variation in factors that you think influences the demand, and the network eventually "learns" the model and can predict with resonable accuracy what the demand might be, so I can be prepared by bringing in the required amounts of generation capacity online.\n\nhere is a website that talks about employing neural networks for load prediction\nhttp://ceaspub.eas.asu.edu/PowerZone/LoadForecast/Forecasting technics.htm\n\nHere are some relevant publications\nhttp://neuron-ai.tuke.sk/competition/reports/DaliborZivcak.pdf\nhttp://neuron-ai.tuke.sk/competition/reports/ZviBoger.pdf\nhttp://www.actapress.com/PDFViewer.aspx?paperId=19022\nhttp://www.imi.aau.dk/~msk/publications/LFANN-CIMCA2005.pdf\nhttp://doi.ieeecomputersociety.org/10.1109/ICHIS.2004.27\nhttp://www.ewh.ieee.org/ecc/r10/Tencon2003/Articles/500.pdf


Flora and fauna of Norway\nThe flora of Norway is richer than might be expected. Most of the plants are also found in other countries, with the exception of a few mountain plants that are peculiar to Norway.\nThe most common trees in Norwegian forests, which cover nearly one quarter of the country, are spruce and pine. The vegetation is richest in the south-eastern part of the country, where deep forests in major valleys are the basis of the Norwegian lumber industry.\n\nAs regards animal life, the marine fauna is of considerable importance to the country, in that large districts are more or less dependent on fisheries.\n\nOf land animals, the bear is nearly extinct, while the moose is mainly found in south-eastern Norway and Tr¯ndelag. The reindeer is the most important domestic animal in Finnmark. The largest stock of wild reindeer in Norway is found on Hardangervidda. There are many species of carnivorous mammals, such as the wolf, fox, lynx and otter, and game birds are found in the valleys and mountains. There are fresh-water fish, such as trout, in most rivers and lakes in the country, while salmon are rarely caught outside typical "salmon rivers".\n\nMultitudes of seabirds nest on the coast. Nesting cliffs on the western and northern coasts, which are inhabited by thousands of sea birds, are a major tourist attraction.

In the Bible, who are the people who were Gays and were punished?

Many people were punished in the Bible, and for various reasons.\nIn the time of Noah, the entire world was destroyed for their wickedness, and only eight people were spared (Noah, his wife, and their three sons with their wives). After the flood, the lives of men were drastically shortened, so that men could devise less evil in a lifetime.\nThen, at the Tower of Babel, God punished men by breaking them up into family groups with different languages. Once again, so that less evil could be devised by man.\nAs it has been stated, the people of Sodom and Gommorah were punished (in the time of Lot and Abraham), for their sexual sin, for their bloodshed, and violence. Because of the prevalant sexual sins and deviations in Sodom and Gommorah, there must have been terrible VD. So would be safe to assume that God destroyed those cities to prevent the destruction (through rampant VD) of many more.\nLater, God punished the Egyptians for their cruelty to the Israelites, who had gone to Egypt for protection 400 years earlier.\nAfter that, God used the Israelites to destroy the peoples of Caanan, (who by this time had become extemely evil, violent, bloodthirsty, and sexually deviant). Once again, although it seems cruel to destroy a whole generation of people, I believe God was simply sparing the world from the destruction that these nations would have wrought on the earth had they been allowed to live. (Evidence for this can be seen in the few nations that WERE allowed to live, and the horrible things they did, and caused others to do.)\nThe judgement of God ALWAYS has a motivation of mercy!\nThis is seen most clearly in the Person of Jesus Christ, who, although He had committed NO SIN, was punished with sinners, taking the place of us who DESERVE punishment. Jesus was not forced to die, He CHOSE to die, in order that we may live! His death, terrible as it was, is also the most wonderful event in the history of the world. Because Jesus had committed no sin, death had no power over Him, and He rose from the grave!

What make people kill each other ? handreds of milions been killed ; for what ? is a human an idiot creature ?

If you've noticed in mankind's history that most wars are fought in the name of God/Religion with the real motivation of land, money and power -- People basically kill for greed, they want what the other person has, that's why killing always has a motive -- This unfortunate fact will never change untill mankind can learn to be happy with what they have and are happy to share what they have with others --

How is it to be a lawyer in the USA?? PLEASE HELP ME OUT!!!!!!!!!?

In America, law school is a graduate school so you'll have to complete an undergraduate degree before you can go to law school. You might want to do that in your country because it will be cheaper. \n\nWhile youre completing your undergraduate degree you can study any subject you want (law schools accept virtually all majors), although many future law students major in political science and English. It's important to have very good English skills because much of law school is reading and writing. They do like well rounded people, so have take some science or math also. \n\nIn America, an undergraduate degree will take you about four years. It's possible to do it in three if you take a lot of summer classes. It takes a lot of people more than four because they switch majors. \n\nAll that determines if you get into law school is your GPA and your LSAT score. They look at other aspects, but they primarily care about only those two. Get very good grades, keep at least a 3.5 gpa. And study and drill for the LSAT, it's a standardized test that you can practice for. \n\nI suggest you read One L by Scott Turow. It's a novel from the 70s but it will give you some idea what law school is like.\n\nCareful though, the law market is very saturated in America. There are more lawyers than there are jobs. If you're just looking to make money, consider going into engineering (there are always engineering jobs and often very well paid). Business is another good opition. You have the oportunity to make more money than engineering or law, although you'll have less security.

Anyone know how to add and moderate a school on myspace?

i am a mod of a school.  you make the school if it isn't already on myspace.  and  then you go to "see what's new at your school"  and click the school.  once there if there already isn't a mod, which there shouldn't be becuase you made the school, you click "i want to be the mod of this school"  or something like that, and you will fill out a form to myspace about why you think you should be the mod of this school.  be nice and tell the reasons why, don't just say "because i made this school"  if they don't want you to mod from what you say, i doubt they will let you.

Armies, and wars in general, are needed as a natural part of human evolution.  When you look at war from a long-range perspective, it becomes clear that, as destructive as wars are, their very destructiveness has served as the primary force for the evolution of the human race.  By mercilessly elimnating those who were unable to survive in the theater of war, wars resulted in a constant upgrading of both the physiological and intellectual acuity of man.\n\nAlthough many bright people perish in wars, the preponderance of the casualties occur among people with the limited intellectual capacity to understand the mechanics of wars and who are thus unable to avoid becoming casualties.\n\nWho would seriosly dispute the fact that smart people have higher living standards than intellectually less endowed persons do?  War elimnates the intellectually less fit and thus, in the end, raises the average intelligence and the living standards of society as a whole.\n\nThroughout the ages, evolution took advantage of the 4 horsemen of the apocalypse, war, natural disasters, disease and famine.\n\nIf we succeed in eliminating armies and war, we are also eliminating war in its capacity as a powerful contributor to evolution by keeping the world population in check.  We are now at 6 billion humans, scientific projections of growth predict 10 billion within 50 years...mostly in under developed countries. Humanity will reach the limits of available resources at 9-12 billion..this is not sustainable.\n\nWe can only speculate as to which path evolution will take in reducing the world from 10 to  3 billion.  A battle for resources will favor those with higher levels of intelligence and rationality.  Evolution never receds to irrationality, superstition and stupidity.

how much do you have to weigh to qualify being thick??how much do you have to weigh to be heavier than thick?


what is the equation to determine an effective diameter of a valve stem with a keyway cut in it?

There are two aspects to your question.  The area of the cross-section through a round valve stem is Pi x r**2 (Pi times the radius squared.)  Working with a magnified drawing of the stem with keyway, you could determine the percent of area of the cross-section removed by the keyway and calculate an effective new diameter."  This could be used to determine how much meteal is needed to make the stem, but not how the stem will perform.\n\nThe use of a keyway not only eliminates some metal from the stem but changes how the stem is loaded while being torqued.  That depends on the keyway design and also how the keyway is machined.  Sharp corners in the keyway may cause severe stress risers, multiplying local stress and leading to failure if overloaded.  You may need to calculate allowed torque on stems with and without keyways to determine equivalent effective diameters from a performance point of view.

Are you color blind?  What colors do you see distorted?

Color blindness is dependent on the visual spectra.  OK..thats lots of jargon so here is simple way to look at it.  You visual light is while however if you put a prism you will see rainbow colors (remeber prism experiemnt?).  Well, your eye is designed to synthesize white visual light into optical shades (rainbow) and hence one can see colors.\n\nNow two ends of this color spectra are Blue and Red and everything in between.Depending upon, where there is a deficiency in your prism (eye), it can vary in color interpreation.  Hence, it varies with ansers below. There have been examples in the history that baristors (lawyers in English court) went to court with Red coat (instead black) and judges thought that person was a prankster...this is before color blindness was identified..

why do we let lawbreakers have a voice in this country?

Because if you try and stand up for your Country and stop them from having a voice you are called raciest \n( wait that only happens in America )\nBut then why not have all these law breaker have a voice after all most of the law breakers have kids here because as we know even though they are illegal if they can make it here in time to have the child in the U.S the child for some odd reason becomes an American\nAgain awarded for an illegal act.\nThe only voice we should hear is from behind bars or from behind the fence across the borders\n\nNo other Country do illegal get a voice let alone able to walk the streets in protest against your laws

Can a person acquire a dual citizenship for the rest of his life ex. betJP and Phils.japanese permanent visa ?

Many countries allow dual citizenship, but not Japan. If you are Japanese citizen, there are some countries you may visit without visas like US up to 3 mos. If you hold a permanent visa in Japan, that is probably all you need since becoming Japanese citizen is very difficult. Even marrying Japanese is not going to give you a citizenship automatically.


Your astigmatism is pretty high.  I don't know your specific situation, but there are contacts available (both soft and rigid RGPs).  The problem with soft toric contacts and your high astigmatism is that they have to be oriented on your eye very precisely - if they rotate at all, you'll get blurry vision.  (And most soft torics rotate.)  RGPs may be a better option for you because they don't rotate as much.  If you are really interested in contacts, pursue it more aggressively with your eye doctor.  He/she may not fit a lot of RGPs, but may be able to refer you to someone who does.


if u think u like a person, and u think he like u too but he got a gurlfriend what should u do ???/?

I think best thing to do is waiting!!! if he has showed you that has crush on you, then probably he doesn't love his GF!!! so sooner or later they will break up. All you'll have to do is comforting him when he's sad about the whole breaking up situation. Just be there for him and spend your time making him laugh!!! Good luck.

Should Child Molesters, Sex Offenders and Murders be released into our neighborhoods?

Well, this is a tough question. And there is NO easy answer. First of all, it really does not matter whether we would like them to be released or not as the legal authority has made the rules. It does however seem that many of the released sexual convicts do seem to congregate in areas near schools and young families (which is well defined in all states) although it may just be that it SEEMS that way because we only notice that. In addition, there are many types of 'sexual abuse' lumped into one legal definition. I agree that the pervert 25 to 65 year old molesting a young girl or the 20-something female schoolteacher molesting a male student has a serious problem. But what about the 18 year old boy and his 17 year old girlfriend? Or the two 15 year old lovers? (Apart from the 'rape' issue) In most states they are legally equated and must be on the offender's list. That being said, this is a major issue we are currently dealing with as my district (I am my district's representative to my state's Children's Abuse Prevention Board) is home to a very sick predator who killed a family, abducted 2 children and later killed one of them. The remaining child was rescued and the predator awaits trial. I can't imagine what goes through his sick brain to commit such an act. He was released from another state by a judge who apparently did not understand how sick this guy really is. \nWhat can you do? Know your state's laws and abide by them. Find out who these people are and avoid them. If they illegally live too close to a school or playground, report them to authorities. Be aware that you may not harrass them in most states and they have legal recourse against you if you do. Above all, know where your children are, who they are with, and that they are informed of what to do in a bad situation. Practice with your kids if necessary. AND REMEMBER, IF YOUR KIDS HAVE TO 'JUST SAY NO' IT IS ALREADY TOO LATE. A SITUATION EXISTS AND THEY MUST BE PREPARED TO KNOW WHAT TO DO.


using DeMorgan's Law: verify the following example: A={a,c,g} and B={d,g,e,c,f,h}?

DeMorgan's Law states that:\nc(A)∩c(B)=c(A∪B) and c(A)∪c(B)=c(A∩B)  (c(x) means the complement set of X)\n\nSupposing that the universal set is {a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i},\nc(A)∩c(B) = {b, i},\nc(A∪B)    = {b, i},\nc(A)∪c(B) = {a, b, d, e, f, h, i}, and\nc(A∩B)    = {a, b, d, e, f, h, i},\nso the law is verified. Note that this does not prove the law.


What would have a detective looked like in the early 1800's?

I imagine a methodic man, not much worried about his external looks. He'd probably wore old clothes and would be very anarchic in his personal life.\nSingle but dating a woman for a long time without anyone of them caring about the definitive step to tie the knot.\nHe'd drink too much spirits through the day so his mind only would be at its sharpest between 10 am and 4 pm.\nA heavy smoker, that would be his final ruin at an early age.


Why Do Women Say They Want Romance --- When they HAVE TO HAVE A MAN.?

Most will find just what they are looking for, and other may not but will not settle. You will find women that are perfectly fine with out this so called perfect mate or soul mate but would never settle they are just fine.

the difference between tung wood and pine wood?

I've never heard of a Tung Tree.  Pine trees yes...Tung..no.\njust looked it up...The Tung tree (Vernicia fordii) is a deciduous tree in the spurge family. It is known by many names in its native China, 油桐 (lit. oil tung) being the formal name, while others (桐油樹、光桐、三年桐、百年桐、桐子樹) are common names. The tung tree is valued for tung oil, which is derived from the seeds of the tree. It has been introduced to Argentina, Paraguay, and the United States for cultivation.\n\nPS deciduous trees lose their leaves and are therefore considered a Hardwood...Pine is a soft wood.


any1 have any good experiences with vector marketing?

Think of three balls in a gym.  a Basket ball, a golf ball, and a tennis ball.  Now think of the basket ball as being lit, its the biggest so we will pretend its the sun.  the earth would be the tennis ball, and the golf ball would be the moon.  well when the golf ball got between the sun and the earth it would create a cast shadow on the tennis ball, but its not big enough to put the entire tennis ball in shadow... that is why only part of the earth can see the eclipse.

if you are in your thirties should and a female should you be thinking of much older men?

I am telling you this from experience and from my heart. Go with an older man. I am 34 and dating a man who is 20 years my senior. I have never been happier in my life than I am right now. The maturity factor trumps everthing else. They know how to treat a woman like a woman and not a girl. There is respect present in their personalities that isn't there in younger men. And the sex is incredible. Trust me, I wouldn't tell you this if it were not true. If you have your eye on an older man, go for it.

what are the structures and functions of the different kinds of proteins associated with the plasma membrane.?

here's a basic answer about stuff we were recently talkin' about in class.... there are intrinsic and extrinsic proteins... also called integral and peripheral proteins... the first guys completely span the membrane bilayer and the second guys just touch the surface of the membrane or only partially go into it.  Proteins can diffuse laterally in the membrane.  They also decrease the fluidity of the membrane and increase its rigidity.  I believe it's oligosaccarides or carbohydrates can also bind to the proteins.  Most of the proteins function though as transporters.  There's so many transporters that that's a new questions in itself and i don't feel like the typing! ;)

12 yr. old daughter started "cutting" begining the school year. Anyone who has gone through this, please reply

Self-mutilation is a coping mechanism. It releases stress, pain, fear, or anxiety. Sometimes it is done to make the self-injurer feel "real" or "alive". Also, sometimes self-mutilation is done to regain control. They want to be in control of their own pain. People who self-injure are not psychotic or crazy. Self-mutilation is addicting and many self-injurers feel a strong urge to commit the act. They also feel more tense and anxious if they try to resist the urge to self-mutilate. After the act is committed, self-injurers feel relieved or more "real".\n\nI started cutting when I was 12. It's just an addiction. I'm 27 and still fight the urge. Therapy has never helped me, even in my teenage years. You can hide sharp objects, but she'll still find a way. Most cutters have a stash of objects hidden, or they use their fingernails or whatever else they can find. Educate yourself on this, and don't treat her differently.\n\nAlso, just because she's cutting doesn't mean she's suicidal. When people hear of someone self-mutilating, they assume that person is suicidal. Not true! And there are many adults who are cutters and live a very successful life. It doesn't mean her life is doomed, or that she's crazy, or that you should beat her A$$ (as said above). I sent many links--read them, they're informative! You can consider therapy, but it doesn't always help/work.\nBest of luck!\n\nhttp://www.palace.net/~llama/psych/injury.html\nhttp://www.focusas.com/SelfInjury.html\nhttp://www.self-injury.net/\nhttp://www.coolnurse.com/self-injury.htm


Rubbing alcohol contains 70% 2-propanol which has a very low freezing point of -88ºC.\nRubbing alcohol will also freeze, but at a higher temperature of about -32ºC. A normal freezer only gets as cold as -10 to -15ºC. Dry ice (which is usually around -60ºC) is a good way to freeze it. \nHope this helped.

About law in California. Congress trying to make kids born here illegal because parents are illegal?

Wow, thanks for the update.\n\nI am assuming you mean the California congress.\n\nIt is an interesting proposition, but the Constitution grants the United States Congress with the power to control Naturalization. \n\nIt would be interesting to see if it could be passed, that would definitely seem like a separation of powers issue between the federal and state government.\n\nBut, of course if you are talking about the Federal Congress, they would seem to have the power.\n\nTo be honest California is in a unique situation though, they have a huge illegal immigrant problem, and once the child is a citizen, the parents may claim a need to stay to raise child.  \n\nIs California becoming that overpopulated?  And even if that is the issue that doesn't deal with the failure to detect illegal immigrants, and that would seem to be the real issue there.


I am 19 yrs love my guy immensely wish to marry him but family is in way what do I do when I feel sick of life

If you are over 18 there is nothing your family can do to stop you!  It's a tough situation, but maybe once your married they will come around.  Although, I think you are a little young to get married.  You have to remember, marriage is supposed to be a lifelong commitment.  If your not ready to be committed to something for your entire life, I would wait.  If your in love, then it shouldn't matter when and if you get married!  Take your time and think it over alot, you don't want to lose all your family over something that may not last!

What is the difference between broadband ,hifi,dsl?

Broadband Internet refers to any internet service that offers the client bandwidth above 56Kbps. It includes cable internet, DSL, T1 service, etc. Broadband by itself just refers to a large bandwidth.\nDSL is a digital subscriber line. It is a dedicated connection to the internet over regular copper phone wire that is connected at your local telephone service supplier's end. It typically offers speeds around 768Kbps and 1.5Mbps depending on the quality of your line and your distance from the local telephone hub.\nCable internet service is offered through your cable company through the same coaxial cable they send their television signals through, except it is connected to a cable modem on your end that you then connect to a computer or router. It typically offers more bandwidth than DSL, in the range of 6Mbps for a good connection to less, depending on the amount of subscribers in your area.\nHiFi is an audio term referring to High Fidelity sound. More information is in the source link.


Do you think you've ever met an angel but by the time you realized it they were *poof*?

I had my car stuck in a ditch. Thia guy in a white Jeep pulled up and got out. He had a white T-shirt and white shorts on. He was a stocky muscular guy with thick shaggy dark blond hair and a thick beard. He took a thick white rope out of his Jeep with a huge silver hook on the end and hooked it to my bumper and pulled my car out of the ditch  ALL WITHOUT SAYING ONE WORD. I thought at the time he was an angel and was looking at him hard and I remember his eyes staring back at me. I wrote down his license plate number since at the time I had a way of finding out the name and address of anyone's license plate. Then he jumped back in the Jeep and was gone. I thought later about checking on that license plate to see who it belonged to and decided that I wouldn't.\nThe whole thing was so odd and especialy the way he didn't SAY anything. I have heard of other people who feel they have met angels and they didn't say anything either.

Examples include "fighting words" (words meant to provoke a physical fight), "commercial speech" (claims made in advertising), "obscenity" (prurient language), etc.

why should peopple not adopt children.What are the cons on adoption?

Can't think of one, unless you are just a bad person who won't raise the child right.  We just adopted a little boy, and it has been a wonderful thing.  James 1:27 says  "Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this:  to look after the widows and orphans in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world."\nPure religion is what I am after, but I have to admit, I would have wanted this beautiful baby even if I hadn't been a Christian.  He makes 8 children for us, and I hope we can adopt some more, maybe older children before we are done.

Hello,\nAyshu gave an excellent answer. But its not practical cuz u cant really probe into your brain to check out the amount of gyri and sulci (they are the elevations and depressions, the grooves on the surface of your brain)\nIntelligence cannot actually be measured as it is a constantly evolving characteristic. But IQ tests give a good approximation of your intelligence. Check out this site, it is free (u have to sign up though) and it has a vast array of free tests and premium tests. The premium tests can be taken for free, but they will only display your generalised results. For complete, specialised results, u have to pay. But most tests are completely free....

Like in the other problem, let's set up some dimensional analysis.\n\n(0.43 deg.C decr)*(1 mole compound / 1.86 deg.C decr) = X\n\nHere X would equal 0.23 moles compound\n\nNext, you want to find the grams of solute in solution.\n\n(8.02g solute/0.861 kg solvent) = Y\n\nY here is equal to 9.31 g compound/kg solution\n\nNow that you have the mass in grams and the number of moles of the solute, you can divide Y by X, which gives the units for molecular mass (g/ mol.)\n\nThe answer should be around 40.48 g/mol. The solute cannot be determined from this information because no additional information is given concerning what is most likely a compound (not a pure element).

I am wondering if I should do High School baseball, or just Babe Ruth baseball??

High School baseball will open more doors for you. you may not be competitive but when you plan to go to colleges, the schools you apply to will look at your transcripts and see that you played HS baseball and contributed to your school in other ways than just attending school. Your coaches can also be used as references for colleges and jobs. It also gives you an opportunity to make friends with people you go to school with. Making friends can't be a bad thing.

My property in rural San Antonio has really appreciated should I sell or refinance and pay off all my bills?

I have 5 years experience in mortgage and Real Estate.. you can do whatever you want with your property, remember the longer you hold on to it, the more it appreciates.  When it comes to paying off debt, you need to consider a few things: \n\n1) if you consolidate your debt, you may be able to deduct it on your taxes (consult a tax accountant beforehand).\n\n2) or you can just refinance, get a better rate, and use your savings to pay off your exsisting debt.  Especially with the interest only loans available, they can reduce your mortgage payment considerably.  (you need to consult with a TX licensed mortgage broker for those options). \n\nThe last option is nice because it doesn't eat away at any of your equity.\n\nHope this helps..

Practically there aren't any. The two ideas mentioned before (skepticism and change of view) are just small obstacles that can be easily overcome with a strong personality cult (like Stalin in the former USSR, who conducted the most succesful propaganda campaign in history. The propaganda's veil fell only when the leader fell).\nA weaker type of propaganda is fear cult (as opposed to personality cult) like the one used in at least two occasions by the US govt (Vietnam and Iraq/Afghanistan).\nWhile a personality cult is easy to keep out of public scrutiny, a cult of fear can be torn apart by research.

Is it wrong for the Christian to be progressive in their health, wealth, and well-being?

"The problem with both Prosperity Theology and Poverty Theology is that they are both half right and both half wrong. What they share is that they are both wrong to make money the issue. The real issue is not money, but righteousness. Therefore, there are not two kinds of people—rich and poor—but rather four kinds of people as categorized here:\n\nCategory #1\nRighteous Rich\nPeople who become rich because God has blessed them, they have worked hard, invested smart, and have not obtained wealth through sin. These people also spend their money righteously through tithing, sharing, caring for the needy, etc. Examples include Abraham, Job after he was restored, and Joseph of Aramathea.\n\nCategory #2\nThe Unrighteous Rich\nPeople who become rich through sin and spend their money in a sinful way. Examples include Pharaoh, Judas Iscariot, and the rich young ruler. \n\nCategory #3\nRighteous Poor\nPeople who are poor because they are righteous, are righteous despite being poor, and act righteously with their money though they are poor. Examples include Jesus, the widow who gave her mite, and orphaned children. \n\nCategory #4\nThe Unrighteous Poor\nPeople who have no money because they do not work, do not spend wisely, and do not tithe to God. Proverbs speaks a lot about sluggards and about people not eating if they won’t work, and Paul says that any man who does not provide for his family has denied his faith and is worse than an unbeliever."\n\n"My entire point is simply that when the issue is rich and poor and not righteous and unrighteous we may have allowed red and blue politics rather than Old Testament and New Testament principles to dominate our thinking."

Conduct an opening period of a parent meeting. Include icebrakers and interest finders.?

1. A good place to begin is to document the barriers to parent involvement created by such factors as family structures (dual career, single parent, teenage parent) and family work schedules (full-time, job sharing, flex-time). This can be accomplished through parent-teacher conferences, telephone calls, or a short questionnaire.\n\n2. Documentation of the barriers to parent participation can be used to develop policies that are likely to work with the parent community. For example, more options may be needed as to when parent-teacher conferences are held (before, during, and after school), how they are held (face-to-face, by telephone, by computer, in small groups), or where they are held (at the school, in the home, at a neighborhood center, or at the parent's place of employment).\n\nCreate a comfortable conference environment in which parents feel free to share information, ask questions, and make recommendations. Allowing parents to begin the conference by asking their own questions and expressing their own concerns is one way to convey respect for their input. Here are some other ways to share responsibility with parents during the conference:\n\nSchedule an adequate amount of time for the conference so that the parent does not feel rushed.\n\nIf the conference is held at the school, point out to the parent the projects that involved his or her child.\n\nBegin and end the conference by noting something positive about the child. \n\nAsk open-ended questions ("How do you help your child with her shyness?") instead of "yes" or "no" questions ("Do you help your child with her shyness?"). \n\nCommunicate in a way that matches, yet shows respect for, the parent's background. Be careful not to make assumptions about a parent's level of knowledge or understanding, and avoid talking down to parents.\n\nSend nonverbal messages of respect and interest. Sit facing the parent and maintain good eye-contact. Put aside paperwork and postpone taking notes until after the conference has ended.\n\nInstead of offering advice, ask the parent to share feelings and suggestions for addressing an issue. Then offer your own input as a basis for negotiation. \n\nMore information Here:\n\nhttp://www.kidsource.com/kidsource/content/parent.participation.html\n\nThis site has some really terrific ideas also:\n\nhttp://www.teachervision.fen.com/parent-teacher-conferences/teaching-methods/3854.html

does a flowing water get frozen?if yes,is there a threshold pressure of flow or temperature?

Infact, FLOWING water does freeze. but FLOWING WATER cannot freeze completely at 32 degrees providing it is attinaing warmth from somewhaere else. If you check the temp of a glass of ice water. It is 32 degrees but it is not completely frozen! 32 degrees is when ice begins to form &/or can sustain itself. The only reason your ice melts is because the water temp surrounding the ice is conducting the heat of the room which in turn tries to rise the water temp. While the ice is trying to hold the temp @ 32 degrees. Eventually the ice will melt; it releases cold in the form of water, to cool the water surrounding it. But because the warmth of the room is indefinate, the ice will eventually melt away as it is unable to hold the temp. Now if you put you ice water in a freezer that's set at 32 degrees. Your water will freeze. Because the water is no longer drawing the energy it needs to sustain its heat so the ice wins and freezes the water. \nSo how the heck does this pertain to rivers and moving water?\nMoving water is gaining warmth from the ground and the air. but becaue its moveing the temp of 32 degrees is not easily sustained so the ice melts and refreezes as it travels, because the weather changes and temps change ect. The only way to freeze moving water it to either:\n1. Have it be so cold that the water nearly immidiatly freezes (well below zero) or \n2. Have a sustained temp of below 32 for several hundreds of miles. \nNow if you put the water in a water rocker and put it in the fridge at 32 degrees it will freeze solid at some point because the temp is sustained and really how long it takes for it to freeze is the ultimate question. which depends entirely on the temp.\n-hope that helps

need a computer for school how to get one for free?

For an example on how to get a free laptops, try the following link:\nhttp://laptops.freepay.com/?r=27988381\n\nThere are some websites that offer a free laptop if you fill out questionnaires and surveys, sign up for at least one offer, and make referrals.  Some examples of these offers are credit card applications, Netflix / Blockbuster movie rentals, magazine subscriptions, etc.  These offers are usually decent deals (but not the best if you search hard on the internet.)  As for referrals, you will need to get family and friends to sign up for the same free laptop deal.  For this reason, although these free laptop deals are legit as reported by media (including CNN, New York Times, NPR, etc), these deals are criticized by some for its aggressive marketing methods.  Others argue that this is simple an alternative payment method in which advertisers pay for the end-users/consumers.\n\nI encourage you to do more research on your own before heavily investing your time.  As mentioned earlier, it works and you will get a free laptop.  However, it also takes work and time.  This link should provide you with more unbiased information.\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freepay\n\nAnd here is another way to get free laptops simply by getting a credit card called “Upfront Rewards Visa”.  Then you transfer a balance and maintain it for a period of time.\nhttp://www.myupfrontreward.com\n\nGood luck and have a nice day!

I'm very optimistic about our relationship face-to-face.. It's definitely going to be better than chats.. at least we can touch now ;) Just take note of this. If he's serious about you, ask if he can go to YOUR place. You'll know how much he's serious then. \nAnd it also depends on how serious YOU are about him. Think about it yeh? Good luck!

I want to know more about Taiwan during the Japanese occupation (1895-1945)?

This is a very interesting topic. I'll contribute with a few of the things I have learned in my history studies.\n\nThe Qing dynasty was forced to cede Taiwan (along with certain other regions of mainland China) to Japan when Japan defeated China in a naval war in 1895. When the Japanese surrendered upon their defeat in 1945, control over Taiwan was assumed by the Chinese government currently recognized at that time: The Republic of China -a one-party state led by Chaing Kai-Shek.\n\nAt the time that Japan took over Taiwan, China was only beginning to bring Taiwan under effective central control, and Chinese control had certainly not penetrated very deeply into Taiwanese society. Although most Taiwanese at that time (as they still do today) certainly identified primarily with Chinese culture --but not necessarily a Chinese nation. Their identities were primarily local, and not national in the modern sense. That is, they did not consider themselves citizens of a Chinese nation. They identified primarily with clans, towns, and regions. The same can be said for most people in mainland China at that time. This was one of the main obstacles for leaders like Sun Yat-sen, Mao Zedong and Chian Kai-Shek. These local identities were an obstacle to overcome in their quest to make Chinese people feel part of a Chinese nation. \n\nAs a result of the (2) Opium Wars of the 1840s, China had already been forced to cede coastal territory to Britian, France and Germany. Being defeated by European powers was humiliating, but for cultural reasons, being defeated by Japan was even more humiliating for the Chinese. This was because Chinese considered their culture to be the superior culture in Asia, and being defeated by an inferior Asian culture was therefore more humiliating than being defaeted by a European power.\n\nJapanese took over administration of Taiwan and the other regions. For the first 30 years or so,  the Taiwanese and Chinese living under Japanese control weren't subjected to any greater degree of injustice or exploitation than they would have been under Chinese control. At that time, both China and Taiwan were still pre-modern feudal societies. During WW2, Japanese control became progressively more exploitative. \n\nJapan's war crimes against the civilian population of mainland China are well known. But in Taiwan --although Japanese administration was certainly unfair to Taiwanese-- there were relatively few cases of gross injustices. It was under Japaese control that Taiwan saw its first organized school system, first universities, first mechanized industries, and first railroads, among other modernizations. People were encouraged to learn Japanese, and learning Japanese was obligatory for schoolchildren. \n\nIn China, people have been educated for several generations to hate Japanese and see Japan as an enemy. Most Taiwanese, however, have an overwhelmingly positive opinion of Japan and Japanese culture. This is in large part because during the post-WW2 period, the enemy that Taiwanese were educated to fear was Communist China, so there was no particular reason for the government to encourage hate or fear of Japan.  Also, during this period, Taiwan and Japan developed along similar paths economically and culturaly, and were both open to Western investment and cultural influence. \n\nToday, both Taiwan and Japan have much more in common with each other than with the Peoples Repulic of China. Both are multi-party democracies with freedom of speech, freedom of the press, etc. Both have very open and vibrant civil societies. \n\nChina, unfortunately, is at least a generation behind in terms of cultural and political development.

What are police line-ups and how accurate are they?

Police line-ups are when trying to identify a perpretrator, several people with similar height and weight are lined together while an eye-witness view them behind a one way mirror.  Each person is asked to step forward and turn or to even say a specific sentence to help the witness identify.  This way the witness is kept out of sight of the actual criminal & won't have to fear repercussions.\n\nI don't have a percentage on accuracy but it's my understanding that eyewitness identity is generally poor.  It appears that in the case of several witnesses each one tends to see differently.  In fact, there are wide desparities in eye-witnesses in almost every aspect.

The single biggest complaint I hear from Apple users that have Mac models introduced after 1999 and before 2003 is that Apple canceled production of the AirPort Card. Apple released the original AirPort Card in 1999 and it was more or less the same device through 2004, when it stopped being produced. There's a story behind it that I only have pieces of.\n\nThe AirPort Card was a modified version of a PC Card produced originally by Lucent. When Wi-FI was first introduced, there was Intersil and Lucent, and a few other players with very little marketshare. Intersil produced the Prism series of chips used by Linksys and many other companies; Lucent (which acquired its product line by buying WaveLAN) sold its cards under the name Orinoco and sold chips to Apple. Apple included a special slot for this card in iMacs starting in 1999. The original Wi-Fi flavor was 802.11b, which operated at a raw rate of 11 Mbps.\n\nIntersil wound up becoming an also-ran in the Wi-Fi market as upstart Broadcom captured the early 802.11g market despite Intersil pushing the OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) encoding method that became the way that 802.11g reached 54 Mbps of raw speed. Intersil later sold its wireless products to GlobespanVirata which merged with Conexant. Conexant now focuses its wireless efforts on integrated home gateways.\n\nBroadcom grabbed a huge hunk of the 802.11g market, snagging Belkin, Buffalo, Linksys, and Apple. Lucent had, in the meantime, spun its chipmaking division off as Agere, which didn't provide 802.11g chips til a little too late for Apple and the rest of the marketplace. Atheros, meanwhile, which had started as an 802.11a company for the enterprise, shifted gears and signed up NetGear, D-Link, and, later, a lot of startup wireless LAN switch companies. Intel (via Centrino), Marvell, Atheros, and Broadcom are recognized as the leading Wi-Fi chipmakers today.\n\nApple sold Broadcom's package as a modified mini-PCI card that fits into a new special slot inside all current Macs. It continued to sell the AirPort Card, lowering the price in 2004 to $80 down from the $100 it had charged from its 1999 introduction.\n\nAgere wound up selling its Wi-Fi product line to Proxim which first stopped selling to consumers, and then went into bankruptcy and had its assets acquired by Terabeam, which also acquired the Ricochet brand and system. (Ricochet was an early metropolitan-scale wireless system funded by Paul Allen that could offer speeds up to about 128 Kbps by its end, but like many Allen projects, it was a few years ahead of its time and ahead of the technology.)\n\nIt's pretty clear, though I've never heard it said, that at some point in this magical mystery merger tour that whatever company was still produced either the silicon or the complete package for Apple's AirPort Card stopped doing so: either the company's contract with Apple ran out or the company was incapable of continuing to run the product line. Either way, the AirPort Card disappeared and with it the hopes of a short generation of Mac users of having a simple way to connect wirelessly.\n\nUsed and never-opened AirPort Cards continue to sell on eBay, now typically for $120 to $140. The problem with used AirPort Cards is that both they and the original AirPort Base Station were notorious for going on the fritz after a year or two. I had two AirPort Base Stations die; this is a fixable problem, however, and the folks at BSR Tech offer repairs for graphite and snow ABS's and newer AirPort Extreme Base Stations, too.\n\nWhat prompted this reverie is that I noticed on Dealmac today, my favorite bargain-promoting site, an offer for a $100 refurbished AirPort Card from TechRestore.com. Use Dealmac's coupon to get the discount. It's odd to see this card listed as "refurbished" because it's a solid hunk of circuit board. It either works or not. It's possible they did some burn-in tests to confi
