This sounds like you need to consult an ALLERGIST you are possibly reacting to something under your nails or in the air I found that once I began an allergy remedy I stopped having reactions like that.  After my test I found out I was allergic to human hair...go figure right?  Keep your nails short and take good care of your skin.  I use Mary Kay on my whole body to keep it all properly hydrated and exfoliated.  When you talk to your consultant she will customize it for you ( ie men use no color or foundation or you may be allergic to a fragrance)  but here is what I generally recommend for the facial care...\n\nTry the Mary Kay skin care line with customized skin care products for acne. The best thing to with your skin is always to keep it clean as well as treating breakouts. This helps prevent breakouts. \n\nThere are five steps to basic skin care:  \n1. Cleanse\n2. Exfoliate\n3. Tone/Freshen\n4. Moisturize\n5. Protect\n\nThe Mary Kay 3 in 1 cleanser can do the first three steps in one. The fifth step is protect. You want to use an oil free foundation which our formulas for dry normal combo and oily skin are all oil free. When your skin is protected with foundation you can wash off the impurities that your skin catches in the air. The foundation catches the irritants and impurities instead of them getting into your pores causing further breakouts. Mary Kay is satisfaction guaranteed. So if you try it and it doesnt work for you you can get different products or your money back. \n\nAlso it is so important that when you are using skin care you use one line be it Mary Kay or Avon or a Walmart brand. They are formulated to work with one another. Mixing products not designed to work together can cause reactions in some people. ;) \n\nTo even out skin tone you of course need to keep your skin exfoliated but also use a solution like our day and night solution.  The day solution has SPF 25 in it and the Night Solution has Vitamin A and E and more in them.  These collagen inducing products help to tighten and firm the skin as well as even out tone.  You can add in our Microdermabrasion once or twice a week to totally exfoliate and remove dead skin.  The second step of our microderm set will return your skin to its proper PH balance so you will not be rough or dry afterwards.  \n\nI reccomend using products as follows but like I said all skin care must be customized for an individual.\n\nTimewise 3 in 1 Cleanser (customized for skin type)\nTimewise Day Solution (at night use Night Solution)\nTimewise Moisturizer (customized for skin type)\nTimewise Firming Eye cream\nAdditional moisturizers if needed(intense for dry spots etc)\nFoundation (customized for skin type and shade)  \nColor products (use all oil free and non-comedogenic)\n\nHope this was helpful!!\n\nMeganHill@MaryKay.com if you need anything else\nwww.MaryKay.com/MeganHill to check out the line\n\nMegan


What happens to penguins after they die in the Artic? do they decompose?

Penguins cannot be eaten by Polar Bears, as these birds are endemic to the antarctic and Polar bears are only found in the artic (South and North poles, respectively).\n\nWhen a penguin  does die though, they do decompose, but at a bit slower rate than they would in a warmer climate. Other scavenging animals can also feed on the penguin carrion as well.

How many stitches are in an American baseball ?

It depends on what you consider a stitch. If you consider the double stitch as one, then there is 108 stitches on a baseball. But if you consider each long one two, there is 216 stitches on a baseball. \n\nStitches are helpful placement for your fingers when throwing the baseball. If you are a pitcher, there are many different pitches in which the ball will change directions, have a spin or speed.\n\nThere are three main kind of pitches: Fastballs, breaking balls and changeups. But there are others that fall in other categories.\n\nHere is a list of different baseball pitches:\nFour-seam fastball\nTwo-seam fastball\nCutter\nSinker\nSplitter\nCurveball\nKnuckle curve\nSlurve\nSlider\nScrewball\nChangeup\nCircle changeup\nPalmball\nKnuckleball\nEephus pitch\nBrushback\nBeanball\nSpitball\nPitchout\nIntentional ball\ngyroball\n\nHope this information helped!

How are the wild card teams for the playoffs determined in the NFL?

to determine the wild card, it's the 2 best teams from each conference who did not win their division (division winners automatically get a playoff spot).  if teams have the same record, you look at head to head matchup; if there is no head to head matchup, you look at conference record, then division record.


Many reality TV shows are boring or silly.  For example, it seems to me that "Fear Factor" is mostly about watching women in bathing suits do stuff.\n\nSome reality TV shows don't teach good values.  For example, "Extreme Makeover" supports the ideas that (a) if you're not good looking, there's something wrong with you and (b) making yourself good looking will make you a better person and instantly fix all your problems.\n\nI like some reality TV shows if they show something interesting and don't teach harmful values. Some shows that I like are nanny shows that teach parenting skills or shows like The Biggest Loser that encourage people to be healthier.  Even then, I worry that maybe the shows aren't showing true reality, but reality that's been pumped up or even totally invented for the camera.

the United States military dropped atomic bombs on the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Japan on August 6 and August 9, 1945, respectively. At least 120,000 people, about 95% of which were civilian, were killed outright, and around twice as many over time.


how do you get rid of scratches on eyeglasses?

Some optical shops do "buff" out scratches but this changes the curve of the lenses and therefore the prescription. Now a days most eye glasse lenses have coatings on them such as ultraviolet protection and anti reflective. These coatings can sometimes prohibit the ability for the opticians to "buff" out the scratches. Depeneding on how bad the scracthes are you might be better off to take them back to where you got them done or just replace them. \n   One thing, if you do have an anti-reflective (also known as No-Glare) coating and the scratches are on the surface, you can have the no- glare coating taken off. This may lift some of the scratches on your glasses.

All this is courtesy of Cnet which has provided step by step instructions and they have explained it a lot better than I can:\n\nAgain Thanks to Cnet:\n\nStep 1:\nGetting started\nA broadband connection brings the Internet into your home at blazing speeds. And with a wireless, or Wi-Fi, network, you can get that access on multiple computers throughout your home--and even outside it--without cords. What's more, today's wireless-networking products make broadband Internet sharing easy, inexpensive, and secure. In this Weekend Project, we'll show you how to distribute broadband Internet access among multiple notebook or desktop systems, and we'll walk you through the necessary steps to keep your network protected.\n\nThe core of a Wi-Fi network is a wireless router or gateway. We used the D-Link DI-624 AirPlus Xtreme G 802.11g router, which sells for $99 before a $20 rebate. You'll also need a wireless adapter for each system that connects to the network. We installed two D-Link AirPlus Xtreme G 802.11g wireless adapters: a DWL-G650 PC Card adapter for a Windows 2000 notebook PC ($65 before a $10 rebate) and a DWL-G520 PCI adapter for a secondary desktop running Windows XP Home Edition ($69 before a $10 rebate). The primary PC, connected to the router via an Ethernet cable, was running Windows XP Professional.\n\nStep 2:\nWhat you'll need\nBefore you get started with this project, we recommend that you have the following:\n\n    * A wireless router\n    * Wireless adapters and/or a wireless-enabled system or laptop\n    * A broadband connection to the Internet (typically via cable or DSL modem)\n    * An Ethernet cable\n    * Pen and paper to write down current network settings, such as IP and MAC addresses\n\n    * The IP address assigned to your system by your ISP if you use a static IP address\n    * If you use DSL, the username and password assigned to you by your ISP\n    * The MAC address for all wireless network adapters\n\nStep 3:\nPrepare for installation\nYou may need a few bits of information to set up your router correctly. Double-click the Network Connections icon within Control Panel and right-click the icon for your PC's Ethernet adapter. Then choose Properties > Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) > Properties. If "Use the following IP address" is highlighted, your Internet access uses a static IP address. Jot down the IP address, the subnet mask, and the default gateway. Then click "Obtain an IP address automatically." Click OK to apply your changes and OK again to close the dialog.\n\nYou'll find your Ethernet adapter's IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway within its Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) Properties.\nYou'll find your Ethernet adapter's IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway within its Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) Properties.\nYou'll find your Ethernet adapter's IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway within its Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) Properties.\n\nIf you have a DSL connection, you'll probably need the username and the password your system requires to connect to your ISP. If you don't know the values, try looking within the software your ISP provided. You may need to uninstall the PPPoE connection software that your ISP provided. To find out, check your router's documentation.\n\nNow is also a good time to collect the MAC addresses of any wireless-network adapters you'll be installing. The MAC address should be printed on the Wi-Fi PC Card or the PCI adapter.\n\nStep 4:\nInstall the router\n\nConnect your modem to the WAN port on the router and your PC to an open Ethernet port on the router.\nConnect your modem to the WAN port on the router and your PC to an open Ethernet port on the router.\n\nMost DSL users will probably need to choose a PPPoE connection type.\nMost DSL users will probably need to choose a PPPoE connection type.\nBefore you install the router, power down your PC and modem, then disco

Their existence has been postulated, but more often in science fiction than in actual science.  Some suggest that quasars (which are extremely bright) are actually white holes, and that white holes are possibly connected to black holes via wormholes.  But white holes seem to violate the second law of thermodynamics, and therefore probably do not exist.

Anyone know if any major retailers sell those new thumb drives that come pre-loaded with Linux, browser, etc.?

I don't believe so.  I know for a fact that no major retailer in the US sells them.  However I do know of the BlackDog USB powered Linux server which is powered by a 400MHz PowerPC processor and comes with 64MB of ram and either 256MB or 512MB of NAND flash memory.  I have no idea where you can buy one but the source link has more information about it.

Formula used to calculate wind chill\n\nThe term "wind chill" goes back to the Antarctic explorer Paul Siple, who coined it a 1939 dissertation, "Adaptation of the Explorer to the Climate of Antarctica." During the 1940s, Siple and Charles Passel conducted experiments on the time needed to freeze water in a plastic cylinder that was exposed to the elements. They found that the time depended on how warm the water was, the outside temperature and the wind speed.\n\nThe formulas used to calculate wind chill were based on those experiments.\n\nIn the fall of 2001, the U.S. National Weather Service and the Canadian weather replaced the formulas with new ones (one for Fahrenheit temperatures and one for Celsius readings). The new formulas are based on greater scientific knowledge and on experiments that tested how fast the faces of volunteers cooled in a wind tunnel with various combinations of wind and temperature.\n\nThe new formula for winds in mph and Fahrenheit temperatures is:\n\nWind chill temperature = 35.74 + 0.6215T - 35.75V (**0.16) + 0.4275TV(**0.16)\n\nIn the formula, V is in the wind speed in statute miles per hour, and T is the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit.\n\nNote: In the formula, ** means the following term is an exponent (i.e. 10**(0.5 ) means 10 to the 0.5 power, or the square root of V), - means to subtract, + means to add. A letter next to a number means to multiply that quantity represented by the letter by the number. The standard rules of algebra apply.\n\nFor reference, the old wind chill formula was:\n\nT(wc) = 0.0817(3.71V**0.5 + 5.81 -0.25V)(T - 91.4) + 91.4\n\nSource for both formulas: The National Weather Service

This assumes, of course, that you don't want anyone else to find out that you are claustrophobic.

Why does MTV seem to refuse to play music videos?

Unfortunately, MTV realized that there is no money in playing videos, that all their money comes from Ad Revenue. By playing television shows that reach a wider audience than music videos, it allows them to get more money from advertisers looking to reach the younger demographic.\n\nFor example, if they are playing hip-hop videos, advertisers can only target that market that likes hip-hop. While playing the Real World, they're reaching a much broader spectrum of people.

This may also apply to people born before the birth of Christ, who didn't really have the opportunity to be Christian.  The answer, accoring to some pastors, is that ultimately God sorts it out in the end, makes a list and checks it twice, finds out whos' naughty or nice, etc.


what is the name of the first australian president ?

Australia has a parliamentary system of government, and thus has a prime minister as head of government, not a president.  The first Australian prime minister was Edmund Barton of the Protectionist party who took office 1 January 1901 and left office 24 September 1903.

The convention set the limit of territorial waters to 12 nautical miles (22 km), in which area the coastal state is free to set laws, regulate any use, and use any resource. Vessels were given the right of "innocent passage" through any territorial waters, with strategic straits allowing the passage of military craft as "transit passage", in that naval vessels are allowed to maintain postures that would be illegal in territorial waters. Beyond the 12 nautical mile (22 km) limit there was a further 12 nautical mile (22 km) or 24 nautical miles (44 km) from the territorial sea baselines limit, the "contiguous zone", in which area a state could continue to enforce laws regarding activities such as smuggling or illegal immigration.\n\nThe exclusive economic zones (EEZ) extended the exploitation rights of coastal nations to 200 nautical miles (370 km) from shore, covering all natural resources. \n\nThe EEZ were introduced to halt the increasingly heated clashes over fishing rights, although oil was also becoming important. The success of an offshore oil platform in the Gulf of Mexico in 1947 was soon repeated elsewhere in the world, by 1970 it was technically feasible to operate in waters 4000 metres deep.\n\nThe convention set the definition of Archipelagic States in Part IV, which also define how the state can draw its teritorial borders. A baseline is drawn between the outermost points of the outermost islands. All waters inside this baseline is described as Archipelagic Waters and are included as part of the state's territory. \n\nThis baseline is also used to chart its territorial waters 12 nautical miles (22 km) from the baseline and EEZ 200 nautical miles (370 km) from the baseline.

what's your opinion on physician-assisted suicide?

It's just my opinion, but we live in a world where the need for medical care outstrips the available resources.  If someone of sound mind has decided that they no longer wish to live, it only makes sense to help them.  Not only does this ease suffering, it also frees up valuable health care resources for people who want to keep living.\n\n** Big disclaimer ** This of course does not take into account any religious convictions that people may have.


There is a problem here that goes a little deeper than you might expect.\n\nIn my humble opinion, people in our society have gotten very used to having someone else (i.e. "the government") do things for them.\n\nThey have moved away from (or forgotten) the concept of collaborating with their neighbors, friends, co-workers, acquaintences, etc., to accomplish needed missions and goals.  For instance, the United States has a relatively low voter turnout compared to other countries.  As a matter of fact, sources rank the U.S. in the lowest 25% worldwide in terms of voter turnout among different countries.  It should be noted that some countries such as Belgium, Australia, Brazil, Singapore, Uruguay, to name a few, have compulsory voting.  If you don't vote, you are either fined or disenfranchised.  Compulsory voting is an admirable, if not misguided, attempt at keeping people from becoming complacent.  I believe it is better though to make our decisions freely.  Free will is what was given to us by our Creator, to make right and wrong decisions.  It is what makes us Human. \n\nNow, if we don't tell the government what it is that we want, how can we expect the government to "do anything".  To take it a step further, do we really want the government to "do anything"?  After the tragedy of 9/11, the government "did something" by removing various and sundry civil protections that were afforded to us by federal statute and the Constitution.  Now that's "doing something!"\n\nI, personally, work for the government (a state, but government none-the-less).  Now, I am here to tell you that you really don't want the government "doing anything" without very clear, concise, and incontrovertible, instructions.  It is very important that you go visit at least one government office a week (preferably with a group of your associates) and let them know in very clear terms, what it is that you want them to do. You also could possibly write a letter to the manager or director of the government offices, while sending a copy to your congressman, alderman, commisioner, or what have you, clearly indicating exactly what it is that you think should be done.  Otherwise, the people that work there will go on their merry way, doing what they think they should be doing, when that's not really what they should be doing at all.  But you can't blame them... you didn't tell them!  So how are they to know?  They are people just like you and me.  But sometimes they get isolated and lost, and they forget. At first, it may appear that they are unresponsive.  But that is only because they have gone so long without being reminded what it is that they are supposed to be doing.  It may even be necessary, at first, for you and your associates to stand out in the street in front of the government office, and make a spectacle of yourselves.  But like I said, it's only because the people that work there have forgotten, because we all have gone on our way and left them to their own devices without the guidance, experience, and knowledge, of the body politic. \n\nI noticed in your question that you mentioned your paycheck.  Have you discussed this with your co-workers?  Are they having issues with their paychecks?  Maybe you should consider organising yourselves as a group, and discussing this with your employer?  Perhaps as a group, in negotiations with your employer, you could come up with ways to increase production and efficiency.  This would increase your employer's profit margin and thereby  make it easier for him to give you a raise.  Of course if after you increased his profit margins, he found himself still unable to consider your plight, you would already have formed a group of people with a common bond and concern that would find it within their ability to deal with that too!\n\nSo to answer your question... No, I don't feel particularly betrayed by my government.  I f

I need to know about wilson's disease my granddaughter is being tested for it.?

Wilson's Disease is a genetic disorder that is fatal unless detected and treated before serious illness from copper poisoning develops. Wilson's Disease affects approximately one in 30,000 people worldwide. The genetic defect causes excessive copper accumulation in the liver or brain. \n\nSmall amounts of copper are as essential as vitamins. Copper is present in most foods, and most people have much more copper than they need. Healthy people excrete copper they don't need but Wilson's Disease patients cannot. \n\nCopper begins to accumulate immediately after birth. Excess copper attacks the liver or brain, resulting in hepatitis, psychiatric, or neurologic symptoms. The symptoms usually appear in late adolescence. Patients may have jaundice, abdominal swelling, vomiting of blood, and abdominal pain. They may have tremors and difficulty walking, talking and swallowing. They may develop all degrees of mental illness including homicidal or suicidal behavior, depression, and aggression. Women may have menstrual irregularities, absent periods, infertility, or multiple miscarriages. No matter how the disease begins, it is always fatal if it is not diagnosed and treated. \n\nThe first part of the body that copper affects is the liver. In about half of Wilson's Disease patients the liver is the only affected organ. The initial physical changes in the liver are only visible under the microscope. When hepatitis develops, patients are often thought to have infectious hepatitis or infectious mononucleosis when they actually have Wilson's Disease hepatitis. Testing for Wilson's Disease should be performed in individuals with unexplained, abnormal liver tests. \n\nWilson's Disease is a very treatable condition. With proper therapy, disease progress can be halted and oftentimes symptoms can be improved. Treatment is aimed at removing excess accumulated copper and preventing its reaccumulation. Therapy must be lifelong. Patients may become progressively more sick from day to day, so immediate treatment can be critical. Treatment delays may cause irreversible damage. \n\nThe newest FDA-approved drug is zinc acetate (Galzin™). Zinc acts by blocking the absorption of copper in the intestinal tract. This action both depletes accumulated copper and prevents its reaccumulation. Zinc's effectiveness has been shown by more than 30 years of considerable experience overseas. A major advantage of zinc therapy is its lack of side effects. \n\nOther drugs approved for use in Wilson's Disease include penicillamine (Cuprimine, Depen) and trientine (Syprine). Both of these drugs act by chelation or binding of copper, causing its increased urinary excretion. \n\nTetrathiomolybdate is another chelating drug that is under investigation for initial treatment of Wilson's Disease. Thus far, it has not caused the neurological worsening often associated with penicillamine and even with trientine. \n\nPatients with severe hepatitis or liver failure may require liver transplant. Patients being investigated or treated for Wilson's Disease should be cared for by specialists in Wilson's Disease or by specialists in consultation with their primary physicians. \n\nStopping treatment completely will result in death, sometimes as quickly as within three months. Decreasing dosage of medications also can result in unnecessary disease progression.


What is the biggest thing you'd like to forget from last year?

nothing... the past is not be forgotten but to be remembered for all its learnings!


I am afraid they will struggle around .500 this season, falling between 3rd and 4th place unless some major roster moves are done before Feb. They are very weak at 3rd base and with their pitchers, especially starters.  No one is a true Ace, and they could very easily have two rookies in the rotation on opening day.  Meanwhile the Mets have spent like crazy and the Braves are the Braves.


TEST QUESTION: what came first chicken or the egg?

This is actually very easy to answer, based on evolution the egg had to come first. Evolution works like this: There are slight changes in the genetic information of the sex cells (i.e. eggs and sperm) of individuals that are passed on to the offspring of any two parents. These changes in the genetic makeup are called mutations. Mutations can either have: 1) A deleterious effect on the offspring (genetic disorders may arise, many times these are lethal); 2) sometimes these mutations may be advantageous, making an individual more fit than its neighbors (this is sometimes referred to as conferring an advantage); or 3) these mutations can have no effect, making no change from parent to progeny.\n\nIn the case of the chicken, it must have evolved from something else that became less fit than the chicken and eventually becoming extinct. The chicken became a chicken from this other organism through mutations that built up over time in subsequent generations. However, whatever the genetic makeup that finally became defined as a chicken, that individual was first conceived and developed in an egg before being hatched. The egg and sperm that fused to produce the chicken didn't bypass the period of gestation within an egg that had developed in the bird family millions of years before the chicken came along.\n\nSo the simple answer to this question is the egg came first -- unless you believe in fairy tales?

What's the right age to start using birth control? Does a doctor prescribe it? is it bad for you???

If you are talking about taking birth control pills yes a doctor has to prescribe it. First you have to go to a gynecologist who will give you a pelvic exam (not fun) and a pap smear (they scrape inside you with like a popsicle stick) and after he looks at your period history and such he will prescribe a pill that is hormonally balanced for you. The pill can be bad for you especially if you also smoke. It increases your chances for heart attack and blood clots. I have seen very young teenagers on the pill to regulate their periods as young as 15. You have to take the pill for a full month's cycle before engaging in any sexual activity and remember that it is not 100% effective so there is always that chance that you might get pregnant and it definately doesn't stop the transmission of HIV or other STDs.\nHope that helps.


how do mammals take care of their young ones?[for examcow]?

Well mammals hold their young in their wombs for a time (fetus development.....you should know you're a mammal) Females breast feed their young, they mother them, and basically show them the basic instincts they would need to surivie alone. But, all this depends on which mammal you are asking on-some mothers don't do all this with their young

If something prevents me from having a Happy New Year, then how do I not snap when someone screams it at me?

I don't know your personal situation, but I doubt every one of 2006's 365 days are going to be 'bad'.  But to answer you question, just smile back and accept the 'Happy New Years' greetings with grace as a sign of social courtesy.  If you're too depressed, anxcious or otherwise 'ready to snap', I would advice avoiding New Years crowds all together.  Wishing people 'Happy This-or-That' or 'Good this or that' is just a part of our culture and most people rarely truely mean these things.  So if you feel like you're going to 'snap', just realize that them saying "Happy New Year' is about as meaningful as them saying "Hufflepuff".


how do you deal with the boyfriends mother...he is an only child...she doesn't like anybody he gets involved

First of all, she can only control what he allows her to.  I understand that he does not want to disrespect her but she has too obviously butted in before.  Don't involve her in personal business and decisions. As a matter of fact, keep discussions with her on subjects about HER.  Try putting distance between him and her. It's really sad to say, but if he doesn't put an end to this, it won't end.

Should a guy attempt to be friends with a girl who rejected him?

No, you shouldn't especially if you had strong feelings for her.  I recently broke up with a guy I've been dating for almost 3 months.  He wants to continue the friendship but I told him no, not this time.  I said maybe later when I'm completely over him, and it will all sort of happen by itself if we're meant to be friends.  Good luck.

how do i send an e-mail with an attachment?

Hi there, its a very simple process. If you are using a Outlook then you could look at this following site for detailed instructions - http://www.mediacollege.com/internet/email/attachments.html\n\nAlso check this site too which will help you send attachments via free mails (gmail, yahoomail, hotmail, etc) - http://libwww.cabrillo.edu/about/workshops/howsendattachments.html\n\nThe process is pretty much the same. You need to remember a few things:\n\nMost free mail addresses allow a limited file size and it varies with the service provider. So sometimes if an attachment cannot be sent then it could be because of the huge file size.\n\nAlso, nowadays many email services (free)like Gmail, Hotmail and Yahoo are blocking potentially harmful types of files from being attached (most common is .exe) to prevent the spread of viruses.


Why Americans elected G.W.Bush for the second time why not kerry.?

He make people believe that he was stronger candidate than Kerry. Futhermonre Kerry has no power to connect with common people and make his point to come across if you remember the debate his answer about abortion give you an very good example of Kerry incapability to give a straght answer. In this environment given the low intelect of the american public any presidential candidate must have a straight talk that can be undertood by the mayority. People want to know what you stand for without flip floping aparent or real.


Actually, soy lowers testosterone levels. Most soy products contain the phytoestrogens (plant estrogens) known as isoflavones, which have been time and time again shown to reduce testosterone levels.\n\nThis can lead to decreased libido and lower sperm count.\n\nAccording to a well-respected health professional and author, Dr. Daniel, "Pediatricians are reporting more and more cases of emasculated boys reaching puberty with breasts and tiny penises. Undescended testicles are also far more common than they were in the past. Remember too that soy estrogens damage far more than the reproductive system. The thyroid is usually hurt first, leading to loss of energy, weight gain, depression, lethargy, and a host of other symptoms.\n\nOverall, more and more evidence is revealing that soy has many harmful or dangerous results for both men and women. Eat soy products only in moderation, if you have to eat them at all.\n\n----\nNew: Humorous\n\nThat's why Japanese men have such small penises. There's an old wives tale that Japanese women punish their straying husbands by feeding them a lot of tofu!

hypothethically speaking time travel impossible. Is it possible to travel outside the space-time continuum?

It's not known whether it is possible or not.  And until our theories of the universe become actual laws, we can't say for sure.  For a "wormhole" to exist, there needs to be a tear in the fabric of space time.  Einstein's theories of general relativity say this is impossible, but Quantum Mechanics say these tears happen often.\n\nString theory gives some ideas on how these tears don't get out of control.  The prior Answer gives a good source, you can actually watch a video on it. (view sources)\n\nHowever, this sort of stuff is way out there right now for Physics.

From Wikipedia:\n"Potassium is vital in the human body and oral potassium chloride is the common means to replenish it, although it can also be diluted and given intravenously. It can be used as a salt substitute for food, but due to its weak, bitter, unsalty flavor, it is usually mixed with regular salt, sodium chloride, for this purpose to improve the taste. Medically it is used in the treatment of hypokalemia and associated conditions, for digitalis poisoning, and as an electrolyte replenisher. Brand names include K-Dur®, Klor-Con®, Micro-K®, and Kaon Cl®. Side effects can include gastrointestinal discomfort including nausea and vomiting, diarrhea and bleeding of the gut. Overdoses cause hyperkalemia which can lead to paresthesia, cardiac conduction blocks, fibrillation and arrhythmias, also sclerotic effects."

What is the best graphics card for under $250 where can it be found?

Well, what model is your computer and how old is it.  That will depend on what kind of graphics card you can install in it.  If you just got the computer it most likely has only a PCIe slot.  If it is even one year old then it probably has an AGP slot.  Also, the lower end Dell computers used to not include even an AGP slot so it depends on what model it is.\n\nMy favorite card right around the sub $250 is the Radeon X800XL best performance per price ratio, it is even a favorite over at Cnet.  But I will warn you if you don't have at least a 300W power supply in your computer you may not be able to use it.  But that's okay, another favorite of mine is the Geforce 6600GT but it only comes in a 128MB version.\n\nBut you really need to check your computer, either in the manual or if you have the original specs and see if it has either an AGP 8X/4X slot or PCIe x16 slot and that will determine which version of the card you should get because most video cards now come in both versions.\n\nFor benchmarks on the X800XL see Tomshardware, http://www.tomshardware.com/2005/11/28/don/page7.html\n\nand for the 6600GT see, http://www.tomshardware.com/2005/04/04/good_3d_performance_at_a_middling_price/page29.html\n\nfor Cnet's review of the X800XL see, http://reviews.cnet.com/ATI_Radeon_X800_XL_PCIE_256MB/4505-8902_7-31320650.html?tag=tpr

which college team is knick named the gobblers?

Virginia Tech - VT\n\nThe word "Hokies," which originated from the Old Hokie spirit yell, is often used interchangeably with "Fighting Gobblers" to refer to the sports team, fans, students, or alumni, although the former is the official usage. The word "Hokies" originated in the 1890s; see Hokies for more information. The mascot is the Hokie Bird, a turkey-like creature. Originally the teams were known as the "Fighting Gobblers" and the turkey motif was retained despite the name change.

Do I need a passport to travel back and forth from the US to Canada?

Not currently, but you will be 2008 due to the IRTPA.\n\nThe Intelligence Reform and Terrorism Prevention Act of 2004 requires that by January 1, 2008, travelers to and from the Caribbean, Bermuda, Panama, Mexico and Canada have a passport or other secure, accepted document to enter or re-enter the United States.  In order to facilitate the implementation of this requirement, the Administration is proposing to complete it in phases following a proposed timeline, which will be published in the Federal Register in the near future.\n\nThis is a change from prior travel requirements and will affect all United States citizens entering the United States from countries within the Western Hemisphere who do not currently possess valid passports.   This new requirement will also affect certain foreign nationals who currently are not required to present a passport to travel to the United States.  Most Canadian citizens, citizens of the British Overseas Territory of Bermuda, and to a lesser degree, Mexican citizens will be affected by the implementation of this requirement.

Lightning nearly instantaneously superheats the air it passed through, which rapidly expands and then contracts again when it cools after the strike is over.  This creates a pressure wave which is the sound of thunder.


Where did the term “to strike” (as in “to go on strike”) originate?

The principle of being on strike, if not the words, seems to have been started by the French.  Originating with the words "en greve" which means in "greve."  The "greve" or Greve in the 18th century was where people could bring their grievances (perhaps another clue there in that word) to be heard.\n\nAs for "striking," the word itself, we'd have to look it up in an Etymological Dictionary such as this extract from an online one cited below: strike (n.) "concentrated cessation of work by a body of employees," 1810, from verb meaning "refuse to work to force an employer to meet demands" (1768), from strike (v.). Perhaps from notion of striking or "downing" one's tools, or from sailors' practice of striking (lowering) a ship's sails as a symbol of refusal to go to sea (1768), which preserves the verb's original sense of "make level, smooth." Baseball sense is first recorded 1841; bowling sense attested from 1859. Meaning "sudden military attack" is attested from 1942.

The exact number is not known.


No religion is definitely not fake and God is definitely not fake.It is impossible for everything to have come about from nothing. For the Sun to Rise everyday from the East and Set everyday in the West. All these different plants, animals,could not have been created from nothing.  We Have to believe that there is a Supreme Being behind all this. That supreme being is God. That we are all here for a reason. That is to believe in God's existence and seek his guidance to the straight path which would lead us to our ultimate goal Paradise. God's gudiance to the straight path would be the religion which we would have no doubt is from God for the simple fact that it would have no faults as the Creator Himself has no faults.  Through my research the conclusion I came to is that this Religion is Islam. The evidence is found at WhyIslam.org\n“Verily, for the righteous are Gardens of delight in the Presence of their Lord. Shall we then treat the people of Faith like the people of Sin? What is the matter with you? How judge you?” [Al-Qur’an 68:34-36]


Should that question even be asked? Everytime anyone should look at half the rooms they had some connection to sex. Either by via viewing webcams or cybering.

I think it's possible to bring it back. Not in the near future but in the future.


Did Saddam Hussein have "strong links to Al Qaeda"?

Not at all. First, Saddam had a strongly secular government. He cracked down on militant Muslims within his own country, why would he support bin-Laden? Second, all the evidence points to is that members of al-Qaeda met with members of the Iraqi government. Even the source below, highly biased towards the right, doesn't argue that anything any more concrete happened. I wouldn't call that "strong links." That'd be like saying we have "strong links" with China because our administration has met with them many times over the past decade.

Look, the key to losing weight is to eat less calories than you burn.  That's it...you don't need hydroxy-whatever.\n\nEat healthy foods, so you have the energy to go out and be active.  Getting out and moving is the key to burn more than you eat, NOT hardly eating anything and laying about doing nothing and popping miracle pills.  That ain't good for ya.\n\nGo see your doc for advice, okay?

what is the diffrence between the battrey and condensor?

Both batteries and condensers store electrical energy.  A battery (actually a set of two or more cells) stores chemical energy while a condenser stores static electric charge. The battery voltage depends on the chemical and metals combined and the number of cells placed in series while the voltage of a condenser depends on the voltage of the source that charged it.

Compare the lattice in an ionic compound, such as sodium chloride, with the lattice in a metal, such?

Well the lattices in the ionic compounds are formed by two spiecies. The cations and the anions. These being oppositely charged attract each other with a great magnitude of force. \n\nNa+  Cl-  Na+\nCl-  Na+  Cl-\nNa+  Cl-  Na+\n\n    but in metals the Metals are all arranged in a lattice. In this lattice the metal kernels(inner electrons not includeing valence electrons and the nucleus) that are positively charged are all arranged in space. The electrons move freely in the lattice spaces. These hold up the metal kernels together. They move around in a manner such that the totla charge distribution on each kernel remains the same. Thus you see there is a difference in the lattices of metals and ionic solids. Hence we  get the maleability of the Metals

which is better? home equity loan or 2nd mortage?

it depends what you intend to do. a home equity line of credit (HELOC) is just that: a line of credit. it is a revolving credit line (like a credit card) and can be used, and paid off whenever you like, in fact alot of banks will issue you a visa or mastercard backed by your HELOC, so it can be used just like a credit card. also, most of the time, a HELOC is "free" to open, by that i mean there are no closing costs as with a 2nd mortgage, i say "free" because different banks have different rules, some waive all fees (except interested assessed on the HELOC balance) if you have a certain amount of money in a savings/ checking account in the same bank, or you might get charged a few hundred dollars a year (an annual fee) if you never use the line, or don't carry a certain balance, etc. a 2nd mortgage is just that; another mortgage on your property, it will be recorded as a 2nd deed of trust (a lien) held on your property by the issuing bank. a 2nd mortgage is a one time, lump sum amount, which can be borrowed on either a fixed or variable interest rate (whereas a HELOC would be a variable rate due to it being a revolving, open credit line) i prefer home equity lines of credit because of their revolving nature, little or no cost, and flexibility. a 2nd mortgage might be a good option if you know you only need to borrow a certain amount for one occasion, and do not need to constantly borrow money against your property; an example could be a 2nd mortgage to pay for adding a room to your house.also, keep in mind that you will probably incurr closing costs when you get a 2nd mortage (this can be in the thousands of dollars) in conclusion, i would have to recommend the home equity line of credit over a 2nd mortgage.


Indians helped creat math but why do Arabs get the most credit ?

While it might be true that ancient Indians helped create many basic structures of Mathematics, the Arabs did not claim they created it. It is probably the belief of some scholars that the Arabs were solely responsible, and that just got to become the widespread opinion.


Why when a small electronic device runs out of batteries, when you take out the batteries and put them back...

batteries have an electrolyte solution inside them;  when they get old this solution gets depleted of charge carriers, but i suspect you can recharge them by shaking them all around, thus mixing up the electrolyte and getting a bit more juice out.\n\nalso possible is that when you hold them in your hand when you take them out, the batteries warm up.  this warming means the ions in solution move faster, and therefore have longer diffusion lengths, so you can eke a few more minutes of game time out of them that way.  this effect (in reverse) is also responsible for your car not starting on very cold mornings.


my oven manual says no metal objects to be placed inside. Why is it so ? Has anybody tried keeping a metal obj

Ar e you talking about a microwave oven?  It is very dangerous to put metal in microwaves.  The radiation used in a microwave is designed to be a specific wavelength that is preferentially absorbed by water.  But meatl can greb all wavelengths, and via the photoelectric effect, it can turn the microwave photons into electrical sparks that could start a fire.

Get the \nquarterback!' Hel-LLLO! It's only 25 cents!"


How does the point system work in the rodeo?

Two judges judge each ride. Each judge can give 1-25 points for the animal and 1-25 points for the rider. That gives up to 50 poits for the animal and 50 points for the rider for a total of 100 points. A score in the 70's is respectable at most rodeos, 80's are very good at any rodeo, 90's are amazing at any rodeo. There was one 100 point ride in the history of bullriding, it was Wade Leslie on Wolfman in Central Point Oregon in 1991. World record in the Bareback riding is 94 points by Will Lowe. Saddle Bronc Riding is 95 points by Doug Vold. In the Bareback and Saddle Bronc Riding you have to "Mark the horse out" and you are expected to spur. In the Bullriding you are not expected to spur but it will get you more points. The harder the animal is to ride the higher he/she will score. The rider is scored based on how much control he shows during the ride. It can get alot deeper than that, but that is the basic idea of things. For more info go to www.prorodeo.com and www.prorodeo.org. These are the websites of the Pro Rodeo Cowboys Asso.

Can your ipod get a virus from downloading a podcast?

no.  There are no reported viruses for the IPOD, as of yet.\n\nHowever as you have said, if you were to tranfer an infected file to ther IPOD and then to the PC, then yes, it could become a carrier.  I am sure it is entirely possible, however any transfer you would make should be caught by a anti-virus program.  Just don't tranfer anything you don't trust to your PC and you should be fine.

people who have shingles, can they give someone chickenpox if they never had it?

It depends if they have the chicken pox vaccine.

We just seem to be, we really do care.  Assuming you are not with a jerk: the main problem is the difference in core values.  Men want and need respect.  Women want and need love.  THEY ARE NOT THE SAME.  Your man may be going out of his way to show you respect, but you don’t recognize his actions for what they are.  At the same time he may be ignoring your love, because he is only tuned into respect…\n\nOn the other hand, some of us just were not raised very well.

It also helps to share an antecdote that illustrates a special strength or quality of the student. If it takes more than the front of a typed double spaced page you probably need to edit down.


Infra is backbone to organisation and Explain me about an organisation?

The Universal Enterprise Infrastructure ("the infra") is an online database application system that conforms to standards promulgated by Neutral Third Party ("N3P"). The infra is a service that operates over the Internet.\n\n\nDescription\nThe Universal Enterprise Infrastructure ("the infra") is an organized body of related information similar in design to any privately-owned database application. Unlike an organization's private database software, however, business procedures and data stored on the infra can be shared by multiple organizations and consumers via the Internet.\n\nIn an organization's internal database application data can only be related—and procedures applied—to the information the database contains, or to other database applications with which it is compatible. The organization must employ custom software or web services to relate the application to incompatible database software. On the infra, business procedures and data are stored in a distributed, central repository by many owners—organizations and individuals. These owners retain separate, iron-clad control over their information, enjoying a level of security and privacy that meets or exceeds the level found in today's well-run organizations. Standardization lets developers easily relate data and apply procedures of one organization or individual to another, providing seamless interactivity among participating database applications.\n\nDevelopers create infra applications in much the same way as standalone database programs except that, to avoid redundancy, individual procedures are stored in reusable templates and data replications are avoided. This approach lets developers assemble commonly-used data and procedures to create an unlimited variety of innovative applications.\n\nA product of collaboration in a neutral environment, the infra is based on readily-available technologies and well-known principles. Members of the N3P ([1]) community contribute data and business procedures common to every industry and country, store them in a distributed database, and make them available to any device or computer connected to the Internet. Organizations use these shared, online components to achieve interoperability among existing database applications—-regardless of ownership, location, make, version or design. The infra also enables database applications to be designed expressly for delivery via the Internet.

Why is it that many people who ride road bikes are so pretentious?

Road cycling can be an expensive hobby, and like any gear oriented hobby like cycling, skiing, and especially golf, there are some jerks who have the best stuff and like to lord it over the people who work for a living.\n\nHowever, it is easy to mistake the gear for pretense.  Sure, the spandex looks silly but is very functional on long rides.  Also, some people like to dress up in colorful outfits, they may simply be living out their superhero fantasies.  \n\nNot all of us are pretentious ;)

what is the funniest joke you have heard?

This drunk guy is walking thru Central Park on St.Patrick's Day. He stops to piss in the bushes and sees a little guy dressed in green standing next to him. The drunk asks "Are you a Leprechaun"?  "Yes,you caught me" is the reply. "I get a pot of gold then?",asks the drunk. The Leprechaun says "This is New York City,we don't carry gold,but we grant 3 wishes".  \n\nSo the drunk says "I wish for a million bucks". "Done!" cries the Leprechaun, "in the morning you'll have it in your bank account. Your second wish?"  The drunks says "I want all the women I can handle". "Done!" says the Leprecahun,"come morning, women will throw themselves at you. 3rd wish?"  The drunk says "I couldn't help but notice how hung your are. Can you make me hung like that?"  The Leprechaun replies "Now that would be a special gift,and for that, you'll have to let me have my way with you".\n\nThe drunk is thinking this over, saying to himself "I got a million bucks, women will be all over me, and I'll be hung like a horse. And besides, who's to know but me and the Leprechaun?"  So the drunk says "Yes" and bends over in the bushes and lets the Leprechaun have him. \n\nAfter the Leprechaun is done, he asks the drunk how old he is. "25, but what does this have to do with my wishes?"  The little guy dressed in green asks ,"Well aren't you a little old to be believing in Leprechauns?"


What package of Internet security products should I get for my home PC?  I am looking at Symantec and McAfee.?

Neither!  So many people here seem to like Symantec and McAfee and the deplorable Norton Internet Security which will slow your system down worse than all the viruses and spyware in the world would.\n\nFirst, Anti-Virus, AVG Free Edition (http://free.girsoft.com/ ), regardless of the fact that it is free it is one of THE BEST anti-virus applications on the market, period.  They also have enterprise edition software too that corporations have to pay for which is why they can give away the Home Edition.\n\nFor a Firewall (always have your PC behind a router) but for a software solution I like the Kerio Personal Firewall, http://www.snapfiles.com/get/keriofirewall.html\n\nFor spyware protection get all of the following:\n\nAdaware SE Personal, http://www.lavasoft.com/\nMS Antispyware Beta, http://www.microsoft.com/athome/security/spyware/software/default.mspx\nSpybot S&D, http://www.safer-networking.com/\nSpywareBlaster, http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/\n\nNow with all those applications your computer is probably protected better than any running Symantec or McAfee and you didn't pay a cent.


In baseball, why is the pitcher allowed 3 strikes and 4 balls to a batter? Why not 3 strikes and 3 balls?

Great question,\nread the link below to see that in 1871 it was just as you asked, but by 1886 the number of balls rose to 7. In early times the batter would request a high or low pitch and that is how the strike would be called. Foul balls were not strikes and a skilled batter could hold up the game fouling off pitches.Also a hit batter was credited with a ball not first base. The number of balls and Strikes to a batter to produce a result is a compromise. It makes it easier to get an out but at the same time pitchers can't go hitting batters willy nilly, and batters have to be careful when not swinging at close pitches.

IS IT TRUE THAT SEEING LIGHTNING WITH NAKED EYES AFFECT THEM?

It depends on the intensity of the flash. Have you ever looked at the flame/flash of someone who is welding? The light is very bright and can produce spots in front of your eyes. Have you noticed that the people who are doing the welding are wearing dark goggles or a mask with a dark lens?  That's the reason. They don't want to get welder's burn or flash burn of the eyes. Disjointed sight can last a long while if you are close enough to a bright enough light of any type.


Why doesn't HIV spread through mosquito bites? Thank God, it doesnt' :)?

I can't remember where I saw this, but years ago in graduate school, I'm pretty sure I read that HIV can only survive for 2-6 minutes outside its human host.

All I know is mosquitos can transmit many other diseases, so it would make sense that they too could transmit HIV, other than HIV can't survive the intermediary.

The oldest Lingula occur in the very early Cambrian, roughly 550 million years ago. The origin of brachiopods is unknown. A possible ancestor is a sort of ancient "armored slug" known as Halkeria that was recently been found to have had small brachiopod-like shields on its head and tail."

how does my nephew in the south get rid of wasps nest that may be in his gutter spouts that run down side of h

There's a lot of great information about wasp control at the site linked below.


Men and women are mammals (from the Latin mamma breast) a species that have breasts and feeds its young with milk. The human embryo has tissue that will evolve into breasts. Both male and female babies are born with nipples and ducts intact. It is the presence of genes that direct hormones to differentiate the breast tissue. The Y chromosome stimulates hormones such as testosterone to form male features.\n\nInsufficient or defective testosterone, poor tissue responsiveness, or an unbalance of other hormones like Estrogen and Prolactin can cause female like breasts even in men (Gynecomastia). At birth, the small amount of the mother's estrogen in the baby can result in small breasts that usually resolve. There can be an inbalance of hormones during male puberty that can result in temporary breast growth, which for most resolves. There are many medical problems and drugs that can cause male breast growth.

A quick transcription of the lyrics:\n\nLazy Sunday wake up in the late afternoon\ncall Parnell just to see how he's doing\nhello what up pas! yo sandburg, whats rocking?\nyou thinking what i'm thinking? narnia! then it's happening!\nBut first, my hunger pangs are sticking like duct tape\nlet's hit up magnolia and mack on some cupcakes\nNo doubt, that bakery's got all the bomb frosting.\ni love those cupcakes like mcadams loves gosling\n2 no 6 no 12, bakers dozen!\ni told you that i'm crazy for these cupcakes, cousin!\nyo wheres the movie playing? upper west side dude!\nlet's hit up yahoo maps to find the dopest route.\ni prefer mapquest! that's a good one too.\ngooglemaps is the best! true that! double true!\n68th and broadway step on it sucker!\nwhat you want to do chris? snack attack, motherfcuker!\nwhat the chronic(les!) of narnia!\nwe love that chronic(les!) of narnia!\npass that chronic(les!) of narnia!\nyo stop at the deli, the theatre is overpriced!\nyou got that backpack? i'm going to pack it up nice.\nwe don't want security to get suspicious!\nmr pibbs plus red vines equals crazy delicious.\nreach in my pocket and pull out some dough\ngirl acted like she never seen a $10 before!\nit's all about the hamiltons baby\nthrow the snacks in a bag and i'm ghost like swayze.\nroll up to the theate ticket buying what we're handling,\nCall us Aaron Burr from the way we're dropping hamiltons\nin our seats movie trivia is the illest!\nquestion: what friends star starred in a movie with bruce willis?\nwe answered so fast it was scary:\neveryone stared at us when we screamed matthew perry!\nquiet in the theatre or else it'll get tragic\nwe're about to be taken to a dream world of magic\nwhat the chronic(les!) of narnia! (repeats)\nwe love that chronic(les!) of narnia!\npass that chronic(les!) of narnia!
