If a vampiress (female vampire) breast feeds a human baby, would the milk be good? Would baby become vampire?

Yes the milk would be fine, but the baby would only become a vampire if bitten. Chances are if they are close enough to breastfeed they could also bite, furthering their race.


Why are all teenagers so rude!? speak like they are creeps!?

Not all teenagers are rude... the rude ones are just more noticable.\n\nAlso, many people are rude and arrogant toward teenagers, which makes the teens feel like being rude back.\n\nFinally, too many parents haven't been doing their job, so kids and teens nowadays are ruder than ever.


describe the application of physics in defence?

Of course, physical principles underly every weapon system or other artifact of war.  But even restricting ourselves to the deliberate application of known physical principles, we find that physics has been used for military defense for millenia.  Archmides supposedly used focusing lenses (though if it really happened it was probably done with mirrors, not lenses,) to set fire to the ships of invading enemies.  \n\nThe other way around works too.  Warfare has often inspired advancement in the knowledge of physics.  For example, Galileo's sketches of the flight of canonballs inspired his work on projectile motion.

Are there any online jobs avaliable for 16 year olds?

Not legal ones..... Just Kidding. Actually, I've been doing work through ebay for years now, and making quite alot of money at it. I asked my parents if I could sell some things on E-Bay, and they set it up for me, and I have made over $29,880.57 to date. I just ask around for people's junk that they don't want, or I buy it from them cheap, and then post and sell. If your parents dont want you to do that, then tell them you will share a part of what you make. Don't forget about shipping and handling fees (usually about 5$ an item). If this doesn't work out, I have several other LEGAL advices that you can follow. Email me back at kingofpythias@yahoo.com, I'm glad to help.


Is there such a thing as a "college equivalency"?

No.  There are ways to get some college credit for life experience, but not a complete degree (other than an honorary one).


Logarithms were invented by a Scottish nobleman named John Napier who lived from (1550-1617). They are now used in many business applications. Back when first invented they were used as a labor saving method do to mathematics. They are also one of the only ways to find the cubed route of a number without a calculator.

What are the Progress, Obstacles and Opportunities in Software Engineering Economics?

COMMUNICATIONS OF THE ACM August 1998/Vol. 41, No. 8 63\nNearly a decade of Workshops on Information Systems and Economics\n(WISE) have examined a wide range of research topics.\nThese include a number of what could be termed “demand-side” topics, which focus on the\neffective use of information technology, such as IT-induced changes to markets, and “supplyside”\ntopics, which focus on the efficient provision of IT resources. Software engineering economics\n(SEE) spans both groups, but it has generally been the most dominant topic within the supply\narea. While the economics of hardware have been relatively ignored in the management\nresearch literature, given industry’s ability to continually provide\nfaster, smaller hardware at ever-decreasing prices, software has been an\nentirely different matter. Software costs continue to be significant, and\nindustry’s understanding of how to reduce them has improved only very\nslowly in contrast to hardware. This dilemma has merited a significant\namount of research attention, and the consequent research findings tend to\nhave important practical applications.\nChris F. Kemerer\nProgress, Obstacles, and\nOpportunities in\nSoftware Engineering\nEconomics\nPressing demands from industry suggest more attention\nshould be focused on this critical area.\nA d v a n c e s i n S o f t w a r e E n g i n e e r i n g E c o n o m i c s\nAlso in contrast to some of the demand-related\ntopics, SEE research commonly has a significant\ntechnological component to it, since much of the\nresearch is focused on evaluating promising new\ntechnologies or approaches to software development.\nThis diverges with much demand-side work, which\ntends to be closer to traditional economics research.\nTherefore it requires some skills and knowledge of\nboth the software engineering and economics disciplines.\nAccordingly, it has also attracted some\nresearchers from the software engineering area\nwithin computer science, whose work will also be\nreflected in this review, and in the suggestions for\nfuture work. This combination of skill requirements\nalso tends to make research in this area comparatively\ndifficult, and suggests one reason why we\ndon’t see more research in this important area.\nPractitioners are most concerned about understanding\nwhat aspects of software engineering innovations\nhave worked best and whether they are\napplicable to their particular situation. This motivation\nalso lies at the heart of most SEE research. In\naddition, with the huge growth in the packaged\nsoftware industry, more attention has been focused\non software as an economic good.\nObstacles to Progress\nA number of factors militate against observing\nprogress in software engineering in general, and software\nengineering economics in particular. Software\nengineering focuses on the production of software,\nwhich is by its very nature a relatively intangible\ngood. Objectifying and measuring its many dimensions\nare often challenging to researchers. Even in\nsituations where we have relatively good softwarerelated\nartifacts to examine, there may be little evidence\nto examine concerning the process by which\nthey were constructed.\nEven if there were good access to project data,\nthere is another significant confounding factor. The\nnumber and complexity of applications for software\nhave grown very rapidly, fueled, in large measure, by\nthe dramatic improvements in hardware technology.\nAs hardware decreases in size and increases in performance\nper dollar, more applications can be justified.\nThis then creates demand for software. While\nthis tremendous demand for software has fueled the\nfortunes of many software developers and their organizations,\nit provides significant challenges to\nresearchers as we attempt to assess progress in the\ndelivery of software. Since the applications have\nchanged as well as the tools, it becomes very difficult\nto assess the impacts of these new tools. It may well\nbe the c


Endochondral and intramembranous are two mechanisms of?

bone formation\nendochondral ossification (long bones)\nmembraneous ossification (flat bones (skull))


On average, about once every 250,000 years or so Earth's two magnetic poles switch---the north magnetic pole becomes the south magnetic pole, and the south magnetic pole becomes the north magnetic pole. This means, among many other things, that compasses would all point south instead of north.\n\nScience knows that these pole reversals do happen. Some ancient rocks tell the story. In the far distant past these rocks were molten. At those times their interior materials would align themselves to Earth's magnetic field, much the way an electromagnet will. Careful analysis shows that the magnetic lines of force imbedded in these rocks often were directly opposite to Earth's present magnetic field.\n\nThe last pole reversal happened some 700,000 years ago, so we're sort of overdue for another one.

Do atheists pray, and what they believe in?

yes, we pray to Jesus to make his followers shut the hell up and leave the rest of us alone, and while he's at it, remind them what his teachings were really about. \n\n(just kidding. but only sort of.)\n\natheists have hopes and dreams and sometimes express them to the cosmos. but i don't think i have prayed since i was a little girl and still believed in that idea that "faith" would get me candies and heaven and revenge against all those jerks who didn't "believe." i do meditate on occasion, and i believe that prayer is another form of that. (concentration or clearing the mind, for instance.)\n\ni believe in life and the universe and the effort to create a better world. i believe that the impact of my existence is clear, and based on the acts i undertake in this life, and that it is my responsibility to do my part toward a better world. i don't do this because i believe in "god's reward" or heaven, but because it is the right thing to do. and that "right thing" is obvious to me (and all healthy humans). i find it puzzling that anyone would depend on marginally indecipherable ancient texts to decide these things for them. having personal ethics does not depend upon a religious tract, nor should it. \n\ni have a pleasant life, i have plenty of community without going to church, and i personally can't imagine living any other way. and no, i'm not going to, nor have i ever, become "christian" while in a "foxhole." my beliefs are strong, and they are mine. they have foundation in history and in my personal experience. and best of all, i don't need to just "have faith." i have fact. \n\nand BTW, i have read the Bible many times, went to parochial schools my entire childhood, and i find it to be astounding the lengths that "christians" will go to talk themselves around in circles over it. i especially find it amusing that people who espouse themselves to be "christian" use their armageddon idea as a sort of "revenge fantasy" against unbelievers. as if christ would approve.

Appendectomy gone bad?  My friends young son needed emergency surgery.?

Because the wound "opened up" a few days after the staples were removed does not necessarily mean the appendectomy has gone bad. The strength of the closure is NOT in the staples. The staples or sometimes skin sutures are used only to reapproximate the skin. And yes, if the skin "opens" the wound must heal this way. This is called healing by secondary intention, which is absolutely fine. As for the whitish discharge, I won't comment not having examined the area. If the child has high fevers, purulent drainage (ie. greenish stinky pus), nausea or vomiting, she's probably already been advised to bring the child to the emergency department immediately (shes' probably received similar instructions from the discharge sheet, and should follow these). If it concerns your friend, she should bring this up with her surgeon. \n\nIn some wounds whitish discharge is from the body laying down material to "rebuild" itself, and usually isn't anything to worry about. I have to say again I haven't seen the wound, she should talk to the childs surgeon, or at the very least call the surgeons office and report this if they have not already seen it. It is best to continue going to the surgeon who performed the operation. Continuity of care is ideal in situations like this, since the operating surgeon is more intimately aware of the case.\n\nYou are probably going to get alot of "interesting advice" on this forum. I would ignore 99% of it. Second opinions are fine, but your friend should be prepared to just continue present management, since the description you provided is of the child eating and playing normally.


Do you have a problem with a woman preaching the word of God?

Not at all. I used to feel wierd about it, but then I met one of my pastors who is a woman. She's also a close personal friend of mine and she inspires me alot. As it is I do teach, but I would love to one day preach God's word. It would be awesome!

Age of Empires, abbreviated to AoE, is a history-based real-time strategy computer game developed by Ensemble Studios and published by Microsoft, released in 1997. The game allows the user to play as the "spirit guide," god, or immortal leading a historical tribe or civilization. The game became immensely popular and led to several sequels and expansion packs. The name Age of Empires thus started to refer to the Age of Empires series as a whole, which includes the "original" Age of Empires, also Age of Empires: Rise of Rome and its expansion pack. Also, Age of Empires II: The Age of Kings, its expansion pack Age of Empires II: The Conquerors Expansion, the recent Age of Empires III, and Age of Empires: The Age of Kings, upcoming on February 1st for the Nintendo DS. (For more information about the series see Age of Empires series.)\n\nIn addition to the following games in the series, there have been many similar games that have used the Age of Empires "through the ages" formula including Empire Earth and Rise of Nations.

What other dimensions are there after the first 4 (space and time)?

Our universe consists of four dimensions: three of space and one of time.  This leads many people to think that the "fourth dimension" refers to time, and higher dimensions must be associated with something else.  That isn't true.\n\nTheoretically, there is no limit to the number of possible dimensions, whether spatial or otherwise.  Another universe might have six dimensional space and two dimensional time, for instance.  We can't imagine such a place, but using math, it's pretty easy to describe its properties.

If you get prego while your tubes are tied....?

If your tubes are tied you CAN get pregnant still but it is a low percentage of women who do get pregnant after getting tubes tied.\nI got my tubes tied 11 years ago and my period is ALWAYS messed up. I used to be regular and knew when it was comming, now; I can go 3 months without having a period. It's crazy and it's scary and it really sucks. If you don't have your period 2 months straight, see your doctor to make sure nothing is wrong. Good Luck.

What are the different categories of a Hurricane and the number assosicated with each Category?


Comparison can be in different levels. As a player if we check the records, ganguly is not far from Sachin. His 10,000 is more faster than Sachin. Remember sachin has more not outs, so more average. Ganguly is the next batsman in the no of centuries, next to sachin. More over there was a time he scored more centuries(century/match) on an average. But when he stepped out from the opener role to accomodate shewag and sachin, his scoring rate went down.That doesnt mean he was not in form. Let Sachin come down from opening, i dont dare to tell that that will be the end of sachin. Even sachin knew that more than anybody. In this many centuries, if take how many are match winning ones? ONly two innings, that too very old in Sharajah..againist Australia. Apart from those innings sachin cannot one hand effort. He always fells short of his target(I mean India's Target, He always reaches his target, centuries) Take any example, u can see that. So how can he be a better player. He is technically good batsman. Thats all. Now as a captain, Ganguly is beyond comparison with Sachin. He is a good sports man who gave his opener role to another player, for the betterment of the team,but sachin was not ready. That shows he is always aiming in records. So considering all these points, including the things they have done to the mother land, Ganguly is more more better than Sachin, Time is not far, when these duplicate God's mask are going to be ripped.

What are some methods of cooling such as chemicals and other methods?

Besides the typical methods such as refrigeration which uses expanding freon or amonia gas to transfer heat or standard evaporation, two other electro-mechanical methods come to mind.\n\nOne method is a thermoelectric cooler which can heat or cool based on the direction of DC electric current flow. It is built from a junction of two metals which are different and when DC current passes through the junction, heating or cooling can occur depending on the direction of the flow of the DC current. This is known as the Peltier effect.\n\nThe second totally mechanical method is known as a Vortex seperator. Air is introduced at high speed into a tube with a curving vane inside. As the air spins up through the tube, the colder air, which is heavier is forced outside due to centrifical force while the air moving up the center is warmer and lighter than the cold air. The difference in the weights of the cold and warm air cause them to seperate from each other with the cold air unable to make the tight turns and is forced to the outside of the tube as it spins to the top. These units typically have a cold air output connection on the outside of the tube at the end and a warm air connection in the center of the tube at the end.


An etude (from the French word étude meaning "study") is a short musical composition designed to provide practice in a particular technical skill in the performance of a solo instrument. For example, Frédéric Chopin's etude Op. 25 No. 6 trains pianists to play rapid parallel chromatic thirds, Op. 25 No. 7 emphasizes the production of singing tone in a polyphonic melody, and Op. 25 No. 10 covers parallel octaves.

how were blacks treated in the U.S in 1955?

They were treated less than human. They were subjected to all kinds of horrid research. Just look at what happened to the Tuskegee men that were allowed to die of syphillis for a medical study. They were subjected to segregation. I suggest that you do more research by perhaps going to a black church in your area and speaking to some of the elders. Many of them could tell you about what they experienced during childhood. Also, look up what happened in Tuskegee...it was horrendous.


Is Irfan Pathan another Kapil Dev in Indian Cricket?

Comparisons are odious. Irfan Pathan has the ability to carve his own identity in cricket. The way he's batting, he certainly has the potential to become a world-class all rounder.

SNAKE OIL my friend!!! The carnival salesmen of the 19th century have been reincarnated into companies who sell crap like Enzyte--Berekely Neutraceuticals--what a joke.  Do a google search on Enzyte lawsuits.  These substances contain some very scary chemicals which can cause major side effects if you happen to react to them.  \n\nIf you want to enhance yourself as a male, then spend some time lifting weights and exercising.  Get in the best shape you can, and if you are still not "performing" then see a real doctor about your testosterone levels and get a blood panel done.  If you are still not pleased, there are now doctors who prescribe HGH, which may be very dangerous.  I would just avoid it.  If drugs are your thing, then skip the mail order crap and go to a real doctor who deals with hormone prescriptions and injections for anti-aging and such.  These services are highly controversial, but the mail order stuff is just russian roulette.  In some people, these chemical compounds cause death.  I wouldn't ever order stuff.  And as a general note, just because a chemical was derived from a plant and they call it "natural" it can be just as deadly as any  other chemical.

What is the defference between fission and fusion? please help?

Fusion combines two nuclei making a heavier partical (such as occurs on the sun or any star fusing two hydrogen nuclei into one helium--thus we get the word helios which refers to the sun.)\n\nFission is the breaking apart of one nucleus into two lighter particles. This is what occurs in a nuclear reactor.\n\nFor atomic or nuclear detonation, fission is the process. However, with a hydrogen bomb: fission is the beginning process which generates the necessary heat and force to begin the fusion process on hydrogen (as in what occurs on the sun) which results in a much bigger blast.

What is the definition of information security?

The protection of data against unauthorized access. Programs and data can be secured by issuing passwords and digital certificates to authorized users. However, passwords only validate that a correct number has been entered, not that it is the actual person. Digital certificates and biometric techniques (fingerprints, eyes, voice, etc.) provide a more secure method ( authentication). After a user has been authenticated, sensitive data can be encrypted to prevent eavesdropping (cryptography).\n\nAlthough precautions can be taken to authenticate users, it is much more difficult to determine if an authorized employee is doing something malicious. Someone may have valid access to an account for updating, but determining whether phony numbers are being entered requires a great deal more processing. The bottom line is that effective security measures are always a balance between technology and personnel management.

At what age do you hope you are dead by?

That's a VERY DEPRESSING QUESTION !! But, you must have your own personal reasons !\n\nMe -- maybe 75 or 80.  My father died six years ago this JUNE -- he was 73.  Had an poor childhood, affluent marriage, then divorce, some problems, worked for the Post Office for the last 30 years of his life. Quit smoking (not easy!), and had a HEART ATTACK during a heat wave in the Bay Area (San Francisco) in June, 2000.  \n\nHe's in HEAVEN, I KNOW THIS !

Why do crew chiefs in nascar try to cheat thelr car set ups when they know they will get caught, hence the #48

the try to skirt around the grey areas in the NASCAR rulebook to give their driver an advantage i.e. bigger fuel lines that will hold more so they will have that extra little bit of gas, having smaller drivers strap metal to their bodies so when they weigh the driver and car it meets the minium weight and then take it off for race day so there car is lighter and faster and the glass is to give them an aerodynamic advantage for the draft and better sticking ability or downforce for turns.

what do you do when you have family members that just can't handle their money, nor pay their bills?

When you find out let me know.  To some of my family members, I am the First National Bank.  They always want to make a “loan”, but they don’t want to pay it back.  I calculated that if had charge them interest for all the “loans” I would be a millionaire.\n\nTo be honest with your question, don't bail these family members out.  They need learn how to stand on their own two feet.  If they can’t (or won’t) pay the bills then the can suffer the consequences.  If they know that you help them out then the will continue in their ways.  \n\nOne example is when my brother told me that he had no money to pay his electric bill and wanted a “loan” to pay it.  The week before my brother bought over $100 of computer equipment.  He got mad at me when his light got turn off.  I don’t feel bad about it because it was his fault.  He should have paid his bills before buying computer equipment.  Anyway I would have never seen the $200 again.  By the way my brother is 50+.  Some people never learn how to handle money.

yes someone who is suposed to be responsible for children should be responsible


I strongly recommend writing him a letter. Make sure that when you apologize, if that's what you want to do, to do it for all the things that you said, and none of the things that he might have said at that time. Do not bring his part of the conversation into it; it's about you and your self-defense mechanism of being hurtful, not about anything he may have said (it's important to keep that in mind). Let him know why you lashed out, and that it's something that you do from time to time, and how it's something you wish you could avoid but can't right now, and that you're working on it (then you can make yourself work on it, right?). Then tell him that you value his friendship and hope that you can be friends once again. But remember that when you apologize you must do it from what went wrong on your side, not his. You can't change him, only yourself. And give it time. Guys have a warped view of time; we can let months pass without realizing it. Be nice, be honest, and be yourself, and he'll be your friend again.


the density of ice is 920 and sea water is 1030 what fraction of total volume of ice is exposed?

If they were tha same density, the ice would float at the surface of the water. As more dense water buoys a body floating in it, the amount below the surface is 920/1030 so the amount above the water is 10.6%

How can the fluorine content of polymer be tested?

One method is by solubilizing a portion of the polymer and analyzing via GC/Mas spectrometer. Another means would be to burn a portion of the polymer and trap the gases in a trap of sodium hydroxide solution. The solution could then be tested via specific ion electrode and the proportion of flourine could be calculated by knowing the volume of the trap solution, the concentration of fluoride in the trap and the mass of material burned.There are several other means of performing this analysis. One non-destructive test is via X-ray fluorescence. Each element has characteristic fluorescent lines. This method is not terribly sensitive for fluorine but might work well if one was dealing with percentage levels of fluorine.


I have a question regarding messenger.  When I see a name highlighted doesn't that mean that person is online?

If your brother has DSL or Broadband, he could be logged on even if he's not in town...All the highlighted thing means is that the computer is online and messenger is engaged. Mine logs on as soon as I turn on my computer, I don't even have to sign in. He could have just forgotten to log off, then he would still have been online, but idle.  It's not great for the computer becuase spyware can get into the system, but a lot of people stay online almost all the time.

>>Theory of magnetocrystalline anisotropy\n\nThe direction of a magnetization relative to body that supports it is determined mainly by two effects, shape anisotropy and magnetocrystalline anisotropy. The first arises from magnetostatic effects and the second from spin-orbit coupling between the spins and the lattice of the material. The magnetostatic effects can be calculated from micromagnetic calculations, but the magnetocrystalline anisotropy must be computed from the electronic structure of the material. This is an important quantity because it determines whether a magnetic material can be made into a good hard magnet, a good soft magnet or neither. Hard magnets are an essential component of electromagnetic motors and soft magnets are an essential component of transformers.<<\n\nThe rest of that quote can be found in the source link:

Help I need to finish this prob. What is the greatest possible difference between the areas of two rectangles?

Take the two extremes of the length of the sides.  The shortest a side can be is 1cm.  With a length of 1cm, the width would be 71 cm (1+1+71+71=144).  This is an area of 71 (1 x 71=71), which is the smallest possible.  The largest possible area is of a square with perimeter 144, which is each side being 36cm.  This is an area of 1296.  So, the difference is 1296-71=1225.


is amending the constitutional to pass specific policy objectives moral or immoral?

The passing of a Constitutional amendment is neither moral nor immoral. The issues the amendment deals with, however, is.\n\nMost of our entire codification of laws and judicial system is based on morals. It is immoral to murder. It is immoral to rape. It is immoral to kidnap. I think we all agree that these crimes are wrong both legally and morally.\n\nThere are plenty of issues of morality that the law deals with that we might agree on. In several states, sodomy is illegal. Drug use is illegal. Minors buying tobacco is illegal. Are these issues morally wrong? A good debate with arguments from each side could be made.\n\nOn to Constitutional amendments. The Constitution creates and protects our beliefs as a country. Amendment 13 bans slavery. Amendment 14 banned ex-Conferates from holding national office. Article 18 banned alcohol in the US and Article 21 repealed it. All of these amendments (and many more) deal with moral issues that we, as a society, have decided are either right or wrong.\n\nConstitutional amendment are designed to deal with more specific issues rather than broad issues, and the specific areas you discuss are prime areas for a Constitutional amendment. That is why is it so important that the country has intelligent discourse from citizens involved in the political process. Find out about the issue, make up your mind, and fight for what you believe is right.


Who won the Springfield, MO tournament of champions 2006?


Which is worse physical abuse or mental bause.?

Both are bad situations.  If I had to, I would say Mental abuse is a little worse.  Physical abuse can leave "physical evidence" that abuse is actually taking place. For example, If you see a child with an unusual amount of visable scars, you may take action to help that child.  But if somebody is being abused Mentally, There are still scars, but they are on the "inside"... The average passer-by usually never notices the victoms of mental abuse, thus The abused person is forced to deal with the situation "on their own"  I truely hope this was a hypothetical question, and you are not the victom of any type of abuse.  If you are in a bad situation... Seek help!  The longer people wait to report things like this, the worse they can get.  Oh, by the way, thanks for your answer reguarding a question I asked about depression.  You seem like a wise, and compassionate person.... God Bless.


need legal help after mother died where do i get info iam in nv property is in az?

You can get some info from the county courthouse. \n\nBut what you really need to do is contact a lawyer in your city to help you with what you need. \n\nYour first contact over the phone should be free so you can see if they are right for you. If they can't give you 10 minutes on the phone for free to ask a few questions, then call someone else. They will outline the process and you will get a feel for if you want to work with them. If there is anything you don't like about them call another. Someone will be able to help you that you get along well with.

Let her know that you want to be her friend but if yall are gonna keep fighting for no reason then there's no point of you two holding on to something that is no longer there! Everyone enjoys a good friend not someone that is going to bicker with them every chance they get. Good Luck!! I hope that you guys can work this out. Frienship should be priceless!!!

It is purely coincidence.\n\nCoincidence has always given people thought.\n\n“It is no great wonder if in the long process of time, while fortune takes her course hither and thither, numerous coincidences should spontaneously occur.  If the number and variety of subjects to be wrought upon be infinite, it is all the more easy for fortune, with such an abundance of material, to effect this similarity of results” – Sertorius Page 678.


15mm\n\nsince 25.4mm = 1 inch, take this formula and divide by the "inch" (dimensional analysys) to get 1 = 25.4mm/inch\n\nSince dividing by 1 doesn't change the value, divide by the equivalent 25.4mm/inch which is the same as multiplying by 1inch/25.4mm\n\n15mm*1inch/25.4mm\n\nnow the mm cancel, being on the numberator and demonenator:\n\n(15/25.4)inch.\n\nnow simplify\n\n(150/254)inch = (75/127)inch = 0.5905511811023622047244094488189 inch.

I think the question says it all. It really depends on the person or people and what thier intentions are and how they percieve what they are reading. A simple question like what did you have for lunch today? can even easily be misconstrued if the answerer has feelings of guilt about what they ate or is worried about what the other person will think. (this was just an example) .... and those problems deepen as the questions or thoughts deepen. Because you cant read facial expressions or get a sense of the persons mood on this thing. All you have is words and words are interpreted differently by each and every person. That is what is so incredible about answers, you get many different interpretations of the same query and if a question breaches the "comfort zone" you dont have to answer it!

Why cant the reminder of a division be negative?

You cant just add or substract whatever is left. You invalidate the function of "division" by partially dividing then filling in the rest of the numerator. The number left over after something has been divided is called the modulo, and is useful for programming functions. You cant do an incomplete division(only dividing 20/5 instead of the 2/5 also) and then speculate as to why it cant be negative when doing a full division. It invalidates the definition.

Are political ideologies still relevant?

yes.  perfect example was harriet miers' nomination to the supreme court.  this is a perfect example of how the conservative base influenced our elected officials (president bush).  conservatives believe that appointed judges should interpret the law only.  not legislate from the bench.  i.e. roe vs wade.  there are other examples.  but, i think this one speaks volumes about the ideoligical right having an impact recently.  \nas far as liberalism and socialism...  i'm not sure exactly what the difference is.  i think that any candidate for national election always moves to the right to campaign.  then, tries to govern from the left.  look at hillary clinton right now.  she is trying to move to the right to position herself as a moderate.  it's a real dilemma for a known liberal.  she is running the risk of alieanating her base, in order to grab some swing votes.  i'm sure she's done a lot of focus groups on this.  but, i believe the american people will see through this in 2008.  i believe the american people, in general, are conservative.  running and governing from the right works every time it's tried.  it's only when president bush or members of congress try to appease their rivals on the left, that their mandate is mitigated.

Where do you think Atlantis is, if it really did exist?

In the Atlantic Ocean\nOver 11,000 years ago there existed an island nation located in the middle of the Atlantic ocean populated by a noble and powerful race. The people of this land possessed great wealth thanks to the natural resources found throughout their island. The island was a center for trade and commerce. The rulers of this land held sway over the people and land of their own island and well into Europe and Africa.\n\nThis was the island of Atlantis.\n\nFrom Timaeus we know that it was based in the Atlantic Ocean - Opposite the Pillars of Heracles* (Straits of Gibraltar) and that from Atlantis you could reach other islands and then a true continent.\n\nOne of the more likely places would be around the Azores Islands. The Azores are a group of islands belonging to Portugal located about 900 miles (1500 km) west of the Portugese coast. Some people believe the islands are the mountain tops of the sunken continent of Atlantis.\n\nOn the other hand, if you feel that Atlantis was an exaggeration of the historical destruction of Thera and the Minoan empire, then it is found in the Aegean. \n\nThe island of Thera, also known as Santorini, is a volcanic island located due north of Crete in the Aegean Sea. Sometime around 1500 BC is was devasted by a volcanic explosion that may have contributed to the sudden downfall of the Minoan civilization.\n\nBut, if you believe Atlantis was simply a story then it was only located in the long decayed brain of Plato.\n\nFor more exact and expended info check this link \n\nhttp://www.activemind.com/Mysterious/Topics/Atlantis/


What is the best small business two fresh graduate with low budget can start ?

Think of all your interests & ask yourself if any of those could be expanded into a business. Just keep in mind...what's your expertise? What are your interests? What could you imagine yourself doing?\n\nThen, once you have some ideas, research, research, research. Check out the competition -- their business practices, pricing, customer service, etc. And also think about what you could offer to set yourself apart from these other companies. Check out the industry – is there a need for the services that you can offer? Check out costs of starting and if the possible ROI (return on investment) is going to be worth it for you.\n\nCheck the sources for some handy sites.\n\nHope that helps! I wish you much success & happiness in all your ventures!

Any cell of the body that is capable of of overwhelming and absorbing bacteria and other invasive material?

The type of cells known as WBCs(White Blood Cells) protect the body against infections by either producing antibodies or by engulfing the foreign materials like toxins, bacteria, fungal spores etc. They can also trigger antibody- antigen reaction leading to inflammation. They are of three types:-\n 1. Neutrophills\n 2. Basophills\n 3. Eosinophills\nThey are therefore known as 'soldiers of body'.

What is the minimun & maximum values of objective C. C= 3x+y constraints: 3x+2y>=12, -x+y<=1, x<=4?

Hi again, just graph the three boundary lines and shade the correct sides.  This will give you a shaded triangle with vertices (2,3), (4,5), and (4,0)  [I think; I don't have graph paper handy].  The maximum and minimum values must occur at one of these 3 sets of coordinates.\n\nfor (2,3), 3x + y = 9\nfor (4,5), 3x + y = 17\nfor (4,0), 3x + y = 12\n\nSo 9 is the minimum value and 17 is the maximum.\n\nCheck it out yourself to be sure the graphs really intersected where I thought they did!

Why do people disapprove of President Bush and his handling of the country's policies and the war in Iraq?

He has claimed over and over again about "terrorism" and "nuclear weapons" - weapons of mass destruction hidden in Iraq as an excuse to wage a war and suck out all the oil - blatant imperialism. And after the war, when there is no oil, Kofi Annan himself said for the first time in open - the war was illegal - but he has blinded his people and trying to show them he is being a nice guy, while all the world knows he is just avenging his dad's unfinished business and imperialistically snatching off someone else's territory. \n\nWhy should he, or anybody else for that matter, show interest to someone else's government/country.

How do you know if you are bipolar or not?

With the utmost respect, I want to let you know that it sounds important for you to see a professional. It need not be a medical "doctor." It could be a professional counselor or psychologist. These individuals are trained to make diagnoses, and it would be inappropriate for anyone to make such a diagnosis of bipolar or any other without enough information. Overall, it sounds as if you are going through a very difficult time. It concerns me greatly that you mention suicide attempts...please ask for help if you feel the need to hurt yourself or someone else. I urge you to seek a professional to answer your question in person...I think you will be glad you did. Find someone you can be comfortable talking to and enjoy the healing process.

Do you think we should have more evidence that greenhouse warming is real before taking actions?

There is enough evidence as it is. It is happening, and the reasons may be natural (interglacials, etc) or man-made (which would be, ultimately, "natural" too), but that doesn't matter because the effects are altering the world right now. \nI think the people who always advocate for "more evidence" and "further consideration" instead of real action about pollution issues are those interested in their immediate benefits. I guess they want to buy more time to continue earning their profits, or maybe they think that anything we can do is useless. \nThe Kyoto protocol has been around for a while now, and guess which countries have been refusing to compromise?


What are the advantages and disadvantages of javascript ?

Advantages:\n\n(1) Javascript can be usefull in giving good graphic effect.\n(2) It can be used to evaluate form details.\n(3) Can perform conditional operations.\n(4) Can handle with files (Many say javascript cannot handle files but I have made many programs with HTML and javascript which includes File Handling. It uses FileSystemObject)\n(5) Can do calculations even while offline.\n(6) With javascript, it is easy to build a webpage than other scripts like vbs. (That's my feeling)\n(7) And more....\n\nDisadvantages:\n(1) They are not supported in older versions of windows and browsers.\n(2) It cannot be used to check passwords because the file can be read by an external file viewer easily. So, the password can be hacked easily.\n(3) It can be disabled and web devolopers do not depend on javascript for basic functions.\n(4) Cannot be used for server sided scripting like php, asp.\n(5) Many more...

Depends what you mean. From a utility point of view, yes it certainly is. Sponges have been made from sponge, from cork and from loofahs. Today most sponges are made form plastic. So by that standard it's a sponge.\n\n\nIn biological terms no, it's not. A sponge is an animal that lives in the sea. A loofah is the dried remnants of a type of squash. It's a vegetable.

dont be offended, but, why most of jewish ppl denying the existance of jesus??

we dont deny his existence, just that he was the messiah.\nThe basic beliefs of Christianity about Jesus are against what the Bible says, and so Real Jews cannot believe in Jesus at all.\n\nThe Christian understanding is that the Messiah, Jesus, died for the sins of the people. The messiah is supposed to be a human sacrifice that is the blood sacrifice necessary for the forgiveness of sin.\n\nBut we are taught in our Torah that no one can die for the sins of another. In Deuteronomy 24:16 it specifically says this:\n\nDeuteronomy 24:16 The fathers shall not \nbe put to death for the children, neither \nshall the children be put to death for\nthe fathers: \nevery man shall be put to death for his \nown sin (eesh b’chet-o yumatu).\n\nIn Exodus 32:30-35, Moses tries to offer himself to atone for the sins of the people. To be written out of Gd's book, means to be written out of the Book of Life, which means Moses was asking to die for the sins of the People. Gd's response is No, it does not work that way, each man dies for his own sin:\n\nExodus 32:30-35 And it came to pass on the \nmorrow, that Moses said unto the people, \nYe have sinned a great sin: and now I will \ngo up unto the Etrnl; perhaps I shall make \nan atonement for your sin. And Moses \nreturned unto the Etrnl, and said, Oh, \nthis people have sinned a great sin, and \nhave made them gods of gold. Yet now, if \nthou wilt forgive their sin--; and if not, \nblot me, I pray thee, out of thy book \nwhich thou hast written. And the Etrnl \nsaid unto Moses, Whosoever hath sinned \nagainst me, him will I blot out of my \nbook. \n\nThe whole of chapter 18 of the book of Ezekiel is about this idea, that no one can die for someone else's sin. Further, this chapter of Ezekiel teaches us that all we have to do for Gd's forgiveness is to stop doing the Bad and start doing the Good, and Gd will forgive us.\n\nSo, the Bible is clear, no one can die for the sins of another, and this means that Jesus cannot die for anyone else's sins.\n\nChristians also believe that one needs a blood sacrifice for the forgiveness of sin, that one who does not have such a blood sacrifice will die in their sins, and go to hell, except for the sacrifice of Jesus.\n\nThis, too, is UnBiblical. The Bible describes blood sacrifices for the forgiveness of sin in the Book of Leviticus. But it is in Leviticus itself, in the middle of the discussion of the sin sacrifices, that we are taught that we do not need a blood sacrifice to be forgiven for our sins. Offering a blood sacrifice was an expensive thing to do for the family offering the animal. Was forgiveness then, to be only for the rich? No, because if one could not afford a blood sacrifice then one who sins could bring flour, which has no blood and no life as their sacrifice, and Gd forgave them!\n\nLeviticus 5:11-13; But if he be not able to \nbring two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, \nthen he that sinned shall bring for his \noffering the tenth part of an ephah of fine \nflour for a sin offering; he shall put no oil \nupon it, neither shall he put any \nfrankincense thereon: for it is a sin \noffering.\n\nFurthermore, read the Book of Jonah. In Jonah, the People of Ninevah do three things in order to be forgiven by Gd. They fast, they pray for forgiveness, and they stop doing the Bad and start doing the Good, and Gd forgave them! This is exactly what we do on Yom Kippur, we fast, we pray for forgiveness, and, hopefully, we stop doing the Bad and start doing the Good, and Gd forgives us. And what book do we read on Yom Kippur afternoon? The Book of Jonah!\n\nJonah 3:7-10 And he caused it to be proclaimed \nand published through Ninevah, by the decree \nof the King and his nobles, saying, Let \nneither man nor beast, herd nor flock taste \nanything; let them not feed nor drink water; \nbut let man and beast be covered with \nsackcloth, and cry mightily unto Gd; yea, let \nthem turn every one from his evil way, and \nfrom the viol


Can you buy parts to fix a montblanc pen???

Yes. Depending on what the broken part is. You can look it up on Ebay and buy pens that have problem on different parts, then re-assemble it. You can also buy old pens to just get that part and your pen will still look mostly the same. Montblanc charges outrageously expensive.


Read Neal Boortz's book "The Fair Tax".  \nThe fair tax gets rid of all federal income and payroll taxes and replaces it with a 23% consumption tax.  \n\nPeople get a prebate each month to cover taxes on the basic necessitys of life. \n\nYou get your whole check (gross) not just net.\n\nCorporate taxes presently account for 23% of an items price now.  That would disappear so you would be paying about the same for everything.\n\nAnd with no corporate taxes America would become the worlds biggest tax shelter.  Industries would be running over each other to set up shop in the US.\n\nCheck it out.\n\nMy 2 cents

I love them all and Friends is my favorite show.

how do the 10 commandmetns relate to the 5 pillars of islam?

They largely don't. "The five pillars of Islam" is a specific to-do list - actions that must be taken by a muslim to become or remain a good muslim. Adapting strict monotheism via the Shahada. Saying the prayers. Tithing. Doing the Hajj. The moral law (sharia) is applicable to the muslim now, but it is these things in the five pillars that have made the person a muslim.\n\nThe ten commandments (or ten statements) are instead the basis for moral law: a "do's and don'ts" more than a to-do checklist. They aren't a way to adapt the religion in the same way as the five pillars...\n\nA better Christian analogue to the five pillars would be baptism, confirmation, reciting the creed, going to church on Sunday, etc.

i want to make a snapshot of my desktop.is there any software to make snapshots of any window.?

You don't need any software to do this. All you have to do is press the button on your keyboard labeled "Print Screen" (if you want to take a snapshot of only one window, press Alt and PrintScreen). After you've pressed the button, open up Microsoft Word (or Microsoft Paint) and press Ctrl and the letter 'v.' A snapshot of your desktop should be pasted into the Word document.\n\nNote: The theory behind this is that when you press PrintScreen, Windows saves the snapshot in the clipboard. All you have to do, then, is to paste this, wherever you want to.

What happened to Christianity in Japan? Why did Japan become isolationist?

The Japanese became isolationist because the Tokugawa shogunate wanted to consolodate thier power, and the overzealous christians were cutting into their power base. So they booted the christians out, and persecuted the Japanese christians who were left. They did allow the dutch to trade, however, because they were not interested in pushing thier religion. Also, the Japanese knew how the Europeans were colonizing China, and wanted no part of that either.\n\nConsidering what happened to the philipines and pretty much every other non-Western country that became christian (colonized and abused), the Japanese probably made the right decision.

Explain the difference between a Haploid Cell and a Diploid Cell?

Well haploid cells are cells that contain half the number of chromosomes present in the cell while diploid cells are cells that contain the full number of cromosomes present in that cell like in Humans there are 46chromosomes in one cell so since haploid means half the number thus it contains 23chromosomes and since diploid means full number of chromosomes then it means it contains 46chromosomes. Something to note is that haploid cells are usually reproductive cells and diploid cells are usually body cells.


Why did the Nazi's hate the Jews?Is it because they killed Christ?

No. It was more of a racial scapegoating. There was envy because the Jews prospered. There was antisemitism in Germany before the Nazis but Nazis gained and maintained their power by blaming the Jews and others for a lot of things.

how are the physical features and precipitation of maryland alike?

From wikipedia.com: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maryland#Geography_and_climate\n\nMaryland is bounded on the north by Pennsylvania, on the west by West Virginia, on the north and east by Delaware and the Atlantic Ocean, and on the south, across the Potomac River, by Virginia. It shares a border near the center of the state along the Potomac with Washington, DC. The Chesapeake Bay nearly bisects the state, and the counties east of the Bay are known collectively as the Eastern Shore. A portion of extreme western Maryland in Garrett County is drained by the Youghiogheny River as part of the watershed of the Mississippi River. The highest point in Maryland is Backbone Mountain, which is the southwest corner of Garrett County, right near the border with West Virginia near the headwaters of the North Branch of the Potomac. Also in Western Maryland, about two-thirds of the way across the state line, is a point at which the state of Maryland is only two miles wide. This geographical curiosity is located near the small town of Hancock.\n\nPhysical formations \nAppalachian Mountains \nChesapeake Bay \nThe Delmarva Peninsula is a geographic term for the Eastern Shore counties of Maryland, the state of Delaware, and two counties of Virginia, which all together form a long extension down the Atlantic seaboard. One of the most noted features of Delmarva is Maryland's Assateague Island, on the Atlantic, with its herd of wild ponies accustomed to the seashore.\n\n[edit]\nClimate\nClimate varies greatly across the state, depending on factors like elevation, rainfall, and proximity to water. The Eastern Shore and a small part of the western shore, including the cities of Salisbury, the city of and east metro Baltimore, Annapolis, and St. Mary's City is a part of the Atlantic Coastal Plain, which has a humid subtropical climate of hot summers and short, chilly winters. Farther west is the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains, and the Piedmont region which includes west metro Baltimore, Westminster, Frederick, metro Washington, DC and Hagerstown. This region gets warm summers and moderately cold winters, with a warm continental climate where snow can occur annually. Extreme western Maryland has a mountain climate with mild summers and cold winters, and some places receive up to 100 inches of snow annually.\n\nFor a state as small as it is, Maryland posses a great variety of topography. It ranges from sandy dunes dotted with seagrass and warm coastal fauna in the east, to low, humid marshlands teeming with water moccassins and large baldcypress near the bay, to gently rolling hills of oak forest in the piedmont region, and mountain pine groves in the extreme west.


What are chromatids and what holds two chromatids together?

Chromatids are held together by centromeres.  An easy way to describe chromatids is that they are chromosomes that are stuck together.  Two chromatids are held together by a centromere, but as soon as they break apart the are now refered to as chromosomes.

Is the Tell-Aviv City the Capital of USA?

Free Speech comes to mind when talking about that little cartoon---Why can't the nation of Islam just roll w/ it? They were'nt up in arms about any Jesus cartoons (and there were many) No, Wash., DC is still the capitol of USA, it's just that Israel deserves the rite to a "nuclear" deterrent since every country bordering them and beyond has their annilation on their political agenda! There are lots of countries that refuse to acknowledge Israel for what reason? We know that Israel will not use "nukes" for instigating purposes---Iran, being unstable and hostile to others, poses a threat to anybody that does not see things their way...no diplomacy just the nature of the beast!

what to claim on taxes to get more each pay check.?

You would need to claim additional withholding exemptions to reduce your deductions.\n\nYou can file a new W-4 with as many exemptions as you'd like to claim, but you'll have to sign the W-4 stating you're entitled to claim them.  While employers are no longer required to submit questionable W-4's to the IRS, they may request them from the employer.\n\nUsually, the only time you can have a problem with this is if you under-withhold so much that you end up owing a good deal to the IRS.  You could pay a penalty for under-withholding.


who can tell me an address of online medical education?


Multigrade classes, in which teachers work with more than one curriculum grade at the same time, are widespread in developing countries. They are also surprisingly common in industrialised countries. Yet the needs of learners and teachers in multigrade classes remain invisible to those who plan, design and fund education centrally. In most countries, multigrade classes arise through necessity rather than choice. Multigrade teaching is often the only type of education to which learners have access. In many areas, parents do not have the opportunity to choose between sending their child to a school with multigrade or monograde classes. If they choose not to place their child in a multigrade class, the child will remain uneducated. Access to multigrade classes, and the quality of teaching and learning in them, are central strategies in the worldwide fulfilment of Education for All and the Millennium Development Goals for education.

What is a Shark a Shark repellant? How does it work?

I just saw on the Discovery Channel that they have created a shark repellant.  This is a device that omits a frequency that the shark dislikes.  A scubba diver attached this to his tank and then the swimmer pushed a button that released the frequency...I guess sharks do most stuff because of vibrations and frequency in the water...it's kinda like their eyes.\n\nAnyways, scientists are hoping to develope this further so they can get rid of nets along the coast <which kill sharks, dolphins, and turtles>.

what do men really expect of  women in relationships?

You just really cannot pen all men into one little box.  They vary greatly!  Unfortunately, it sounds like you have had some bad experiences, and I'm truly sorry.  One thing you might do is look in hindsight as to what attracted you to that person in the first place.  Did all of these guys exhibit specific traits that might have led them later on to expect that you would become their servant?  As hard as it sounds, really try to learn from your past experiences.  Also look at your own behavior.  Did you innocently suggest, at the beginning of the relationship, that you'd wash clothes or do anything else like that?


I didn’t see that question.  Who knows if he REALLY did it? If he really did do it, then, wow, that really sucks, and so does he.

All I can see is from the Old Testament, Israel fell in and out of God's favor for hundreds of years, when they were bad, they suffered, and when they were righteous they prospered....and from the looks of it, they don't seem to be prospering right now, so what does that tell you?\nI don't know why Christians today can see Israel as doing no wrong, as if they're immune to evil decisions, funny they never were before and suffered plenty for it.\n\nIf we saddle up with Israel we are also guilty of it's evil, they've already rejected Jesus Christ as the Messiah, and that's a biggie.

Do anyone know a website or a program allow you to call pc to phone or mobile free ?

Skype is the best telephony option out there at the moment but it is not free.\n\nIt is however extremely cheap. The ability to call the other side of the planet for less money than it would cost me to call next door is not to be sneezed at ;O)\n\nIf the person you are calling has a computer and also installs skype then it is free to videoconference with them.
