which areas or countries are facing the of ozone depletion?

The southern hemisphere has the biggest problem with ozone depletion because winter temperatures in the stratosphere create a global vortex that traps elemental chlorine over Antarctica, leading to a seasonal depletion and rebuilding of molecular ozone over the same area - The ozone hole is seasonal, not constant, and observations show it is recovering from its lowest recorded ozone levels. During southern hemisphere winters, the thinned ozone areas surrounding the lower latitudes can cause South America, Australia, New Zealand, and other land areas in those higher southern latitudes to experience excess solar UVA and UVB incidence.


How can i increase my pitching arm velocity without hurting my self?

Arm velocity is different from pitch velocity. Stretching will increase the speed of motion of your arm, but won't necessarily increase pitch velocity, much of which is generated by the hips and legs. Building up lower body strength will give you more drive in your pitching motion, while forearm and wrist excercises will give you more of a snap on releasing the ball, which really aids pitch velocity. I'd rest alot too, in between throwing. You can lose as much as 5-7mph off your fastball by throwing too frequently; I'd advise at least a 2 day rest period.


What materials are needed to make a model of the Circulatory System?

Depends on what grade you're in. You need something red, and some way of showing the path the blood is taking. Perhaps you should make a big cardboard or foam human body, and tape red strings all across the body in a realistic model of the human circulatory system.

How come the state of Ohio is considered the midwest when it is closer to the east?

I have always wondered this myself! I live in Missouri (a real miswest state) and I do not consider Ohio a miswestern state. I think it's closer to the east coast than the midwest. Thank you for asking this question!! I'm interested to see the other answers. :)

What is the worst type of marketing?   ---Marketing homework! Please help me!!!!?

Worst type of marketing is this which is made by an experienced marketer.\n\nIn other words, marketing is not only tools of advertizing. Customer communication is a big subject but is part of marketing how to use it and how use effective communication tools is not that easy it needs an experienced marketer.\n\nThe marketer will first audit the market and put marketing strategies to fulfill objectives then plan, upply tactics etc..\n\n So it is not only a matter of advertising, it is a matter of researches long complicated ones that at the end will lead to choosing the tool of communication. Advertizing is just a little drop from the sea of marketing.


how does a ship made of iron flot on water?

Because of its shape. \n\nA ship, when placed in water, forces some volume of the water to move (displace) and make place for the ship. If the weight of the displaced water is more than that of the ship, the ship will float. \n\nIn other terms, the average density of the ship is less than that of water and hence it floats on water.

I had an eMachine laptop that came with Bigfix as well.  One of the first things I did was uninstall it.  One, I am quite capable of installing Windows updates, two, I am quite capable of managing my own security settings and three, it was just damned annoying.  You don't really need it... if you are comfortable handling your own security settings, updates and OS patches.

What are the symptoms of stomach/bowel/intestine cancer. I have had stomach pains for the last 10 years.?

If it was cancer, you would definitely know it by now. You probably have a less serious condition. Gall bladder disease is painful in the upper right part of your back. (I know... the gall bladder isn't even located there. But that's where most people feel the pain.) When you say it's your stomach, what exactly do you mean? Behind your breastbone? That's where your stomach is. Lower in your belly? That's where your intestines are, along with your liver and other organs. I'm surprised that nobody has given you a diagnosis -- even to tell you it's acid reflux or ulcers or an irritated colon. Do you get relief from taking anything such as antacids? Do certain foods make it worse? Does it happen only after you eat, or is the pain evident all day?? Are you constipated all the time? Do you have gas with it? Write down all the details... whenever you get the pain, write down the time, what you ate, what makes it go away, what the intensity is (on a scale of 1-10), etc. The more details you can provide your doctor, the better. Also, ask for a referral to a gastroenterologist. That's a doctor specializing in digestive tract problems. You also might consider that it's nerves. But see a specialist first.

Normalization\n\nNormalization is a design technique that is widely used as a guide in designing relational databases. Normalization is essentially a two step process that puts data into tabular form by removing repeating groups and then removes duplicated data from the relational tables.\n\nNormalization theory is based on the concepts of normal forms. A relational table is said to be a particular normal form if it satisfied a certain set of constraints. There are currently five normal forms that have been defined. In this section, we will cover the first three normal forms that were defined by E. F. Codd. \n\nBasic Concepts\n\nThe goal of normalization is to create a set of relational tables that are free of redundant data and that can be consistently and correctly modified. This means that all tables in a relational database should be in the third normal form (3NF). A relational table is in 3NF if and only if all non-key columns are (a) mutually independent and (b) fully dependent upon the primary key. Mutual independence means that no non-key column is dependent upon any combination of the other columns. The first two normal forms are intermediate steps to achieve the goal of having all tables in 3NF. In order to better understand the 2NF and higher forms, it is necessary to understand the concepts of functional dependencies and lossless decomposition.

Here is a link to an article at Internet Retailer Magazine showcasing an example of improving customer service in a company:\n\n“WISMO” is more than just a funny acronym to women’s footwear brand Aerosoles. It’s its own cost center at Aerosoles’ call center, where “Where is my order” is the subject of about 11% of all calls. “And we handle hundreds of calls a day,” says vice president of direct marketing Robert Garris. “Thousands in peak seasons.”\n\nDo the math, and it’s clear that even a relatively small 11% can add up to a big headache. But Garris says he expects to reduce such calls by as much as 15% with customer service technology from Escalate Inc., which automates the online order process at the multi-channel retailer’s web site. Among functions, the software allows customers who’ve placed an order online at Aerosoles.com to track its shipment progress online without human intervention. \n\n\n\nhttp://www.internetretailer.com/internet/marketing-conference/83752-The-upward-path.html

If you won a lot of money in a lottery what would you spend it on?

What a fun question to answer!  I'd pay off my mortgage and buy my wife a new car.  More?  I'd self-publish my novels and quit my job. Then my wife and I would go from book store to book store to peddle them with book readings.  More?  I like the above answer: a house on every continent (except Antarctica--I could buy a house in Argentina or Tasmania and just visit Antarctica on occasion.)  More?  I guess I should do something charitable, but I don't feel like I could trust one charity with very much money.  Maybe I'd do like movie stars do and start my own charity and hire my own relatives to distribute the money.  More?  End world hunger, find a cure for terminal diseases.  Oh please these are getting ridiculous....

my older brother has a REALLY mean friend, he always tries 2 hurt me,what should i do???

Tell your brother to keep him away. If he is older like your brother & REALLY mean, then most likley he has a major, not-ok, crush on you. STAY AWAY. If he's agressive and outright mean to you, then he's got some issues. He's attracted to you and he might freak out sometime & try something WAY out of line, so tell your brother he freaks you out & just stay away, and TELL YOUR PARENTS.

My yahoo dsl connected Lynksys router needs to be reconfigured over and over - some tips please???

Ok. Here is what I think is happening. Your router is assigning dynamic IP's to your PC' within the network. That should not cause any kind of trouble. \n\nHowever, If you want to assign static IP addresses to the computers, then there should be a setting within the router's configuration where it says "Reserve IP...."\n\nYou will have to enter the MAC Addresses of the 2 PC's and then reserve IP's. \n\nI hope that helps.\n\nYour router, also has an IP address, but that IP address will be assigned by your internet service provider. The router IP is generally dynamic and is governed by the DHCP servers of the ISP. If you want static IP on the router, you will have to contact your ISP and tell them that you want a static IP assigned to your connection. They may charge you more for that.

i have a blister on my last toe! it's kinda big. what can i do to stop it from bothering me?

Small, intact blisters that don’t cause discomfort usually need no treatment. Nature’s best protection against infection is a blister’s own skin. \n\nLarger or painful blisters that are intact should be drained without removing the blister’s own skin or roof. First, clean the blister with rubbing alcohol or antibiotic soap and water. Then heat a straight pin or safety pin over a flame until the pin glows red, and allow it to cool before puncturing a small hole at the edge of the blister. Drain the fluid with gentle pressure, then apply an antibiotic ointment and cover with a bandage.\n\nBlisters with large tears should be "unroofed" carefully with fine scissors, and the base should be cleansed thoroughly with soap and water or an antibacterial cleanser. Apply antibiotic ointment and bandage.


If faith has an element of risk and risk is gambling,in exercising faith, are we gambling?

It's all in how you look at it! \n\nBut my guess is NO! There is no risk in believing that there is a GOD. In fact that is what Heavenly Father wants,  for people to have faith and be good all in his name without having a sure knowledge of his existance.\n\nI would say the risk is more in not having faith, you're taking a chance on you're eternal salvation. It's a fifty fifty chance actually and those are pretty good odds when you think about it. Gee what would I choose, well if I were a gambling woman I would pick faith! Oh I would pick it anyway. Seems like the best choice.

does the americian people feel ashamed of the president that they elected?any concerns about raping the planet

Well, I didn't really care about politics when he was first elected, so I didn't vote, but I did vote in '04. I voted for John Kerry because I do feel extremely ashamed of the president that these people picked for me. I still can't believe that these people who still support him cannot see through his stupidity and lies. He lied about Iraq having WMD's and he lied about not being able to stop the catastrophe that happened in New Orleans. He should have overridden FEMA and all of the other disaster organizations, had them organized and ready to go, and had supplies from all across the nation and other countries lined up and ready to go. But what did he do? He was in California learning how to play the guitar... this shows what a true leader this man is. Forget about New Orleans and what's about to occur, me learning how to play the guitar is more important. Canada and Mexico offered to give us food, clothing, etc., but we didn't accept it. Why? Because Bush told them that we didn't need their help. Just like when Wal-Mart had tons of 18-wheelers stocked with bottled water so that way these people would have clean water to drink, they told them to turn their 18-wheelers around cause they didn't need their help. What does this tell you about our wonderful president? Oh, and SweetPea, it's called free speech honey and what's "unAmerican" is not exercising that right.

How does dimples on the golfball make it go farhter? If this is the case then why not use same for baseball?

Aerodynamics\n\nWhen a golf ball is hit, the impact, which lasts less than a millisecond, determines the ball’s velocity, launch angle and spin rate, all of which influence its trajectory (and its behavior when it hits the ground).\n\nA ball moving through air experiences two major forces: lift and drag. Drag slows the forward motion, whereas lift acts in a direction perpendicular to it. The magnitude of these forces depends on the behavior of the boundary layer of air moving with the ball surface.\n\nEvery modern golf ball has dimples; their purpose is to increase and shape the lift and drag forces by modifying the behavior of the boundary layer. It should be noted that drag and lift forces exist also on smooth balls: they are only modified, not created, by dimples.\n\nOne effect of dimples is a reduction of drag, contributing to the increased length of flight of dimpled balls compared with smooth ones.\n\nA spinning ball deforms the flow of air around it, thus acting similar to an airplane wing. Backspin is imparted in almost every shot due to the golf club's loft (i.e. angle between the clubface and a vertical plane). A backspinning ball experiences an upward lift force which makes it fly higher and longer than a ball without spin would. Sidespin occurs when the clubface is not aligned perpendicularly to the direction of swing, leading to a lift force that makes the ball curve to a side. These lift forces are further increased through the presence of dimples.\n\nIn order to keep the aerodynamics optimal, the ball needs to be clean. Golfers can wash their golf balls manually, but there are also mechanical ball washers available.\n[edit]\n\nDesign\nA two-piece golf ball with large and small dimples\nEnlarge\nA two-piece golf ball with large and small dimples\n\nMost balls on sale today have about 300 to 450 dimples. There were a few balls having over 500 dimples before. The record holder was a ball with 1,070 dimples -- 414 larger ones (in four different sizes) and 656 pinhead-sized ones. All brands of balls, except one, have even-numbered dimples. The only odd-numbered ball on market is a ball with 333 dimples.\n\nOfficially sanctioned balls are designed to be as symmetrical as possible. This symmetry is the result of a dispute that stemmed from the Polara, a ball sold in the late 1970s that had six rows of normal dimples on its equator but very shallow dimples elsewhere. This asymmetrical design helped the ball self-adjust its spin-axis during the flight. The USGA refused to sanction it for tournament play and, in 1981, changed the rules to ban aerodynamic asymmetrical balls. Polara's producer sued the USGA and the association paid US$1.375 million in a 1985 out-of-court settlement.\n\nThe United States Patent and Trademark Office's patent database is a good source of past dimple designs. Most designs are based on Platonic solids such as icosahedron.

Only if you can provide yourself a safe environment.  I don't recommend staying with him.  Instead stay in a hotel and plan some things to do that are a bit more public.  As nice as someone is you still need to be careful.  Better yet, have him come visit you so that your on your own turf where you have full control of the situation.

hai, now im working in supermarket i could like to open one supermarket in city but now dont have money .?

Maybe get your family to help. Persuade them to believe it is a great idea and a good investment opportunity.\n\nRemember to do some research, find out about the area you want to open the supermarket, find out about cost of rent, products, budget, how much you need, how much you have, etc.\n\nAlso... Be prepared and have something to fall back on in case the worst happens.\n\nRemember, if you fail to prepare, you are preparing to fail.\n\nGood luck!


Could someone please explain the accrued accounting process for a business?

Well, accrued accounting process is obviously different than the cash accounting process. For cash accounting, all you need is to record the amount when cash change hands. However, for accrued accounting, you have to go along with the MATCHING PRINCIPLE -- you have to match your revenues with your expenses (in the same reporting period). For example, you made a payment for renting an apartment for two years (this year & next year). In this year, you can only report this year's rent; you can't report the total payment for Yr 1 and Yr 2. You have to report the rent of Yr 2 in Yr 2 because that's when you actually use (expense) the apartment (Yes, even though you paid it).\n\nI hope this help.

Many people have given the correct answer--it's to increase the surface area--but that doesn't really say *why*.  Your brain is divided into white matter and gray matter.  The white matter makes up the interior.  It's white due to a fatty insulator created by astrocytes which wrap around the axons of neurons (the axons are a lot like wires that move information from one place to the next).\n\nThe exterior is called the cortex, and it's known as the gray matter.  It's a thin layer around the outside and the surface of the "wrinkles".  BTW, the term for the "wrinkles" are fissure for the really deep ones, and sulcus (plural sulci) for the smaller ones.  The gray matter appears gray because there aren't any of the insulators.  The insulation in the white matter makes nerve impulses travel quicker, but it gets in the way of the neural connections (and the way nerve cells work is by making connections to eachother and sending chemical messages between cells).  So in the gray matter, we find no insulation, but that's where all of the connections are made.\n\nThe more connections you make, the more complex your behavior can be.  The patterns formed by the connections are what dictate the complexity of cognition and perception.  Less intelligent animals have smaller and smoother brains.  In order to have a large cortical area, the brain folds up.\n\nHope that helps a bit.

what were funeral services like pre-civil war era?

The Civil War brought about embalming to preserve the body until he could be brought home for the burial. Embalming also insured death had taken place!\nPrior to that, death was presumed to have taken place, but not verified. For example, many dishes and glasses were made of lead. After a long night of drinking, a man might be found on the road assumed to be dead. He may simply have had too much to drink and a slight overdose of lead poisoning! He could be in a coma. The family would lay him in his home for a couple of days to see if he would awake. (Hence the term "wake" for the visitation period!) Once decomposition began, the burial would take place quickly.

Why did turkey not support the usa in the iraq war?

Because Turkey felt they had more to lose from the invasion of Iraq than they could gain.\n\n1-Turkey was being asked to give up a large amount of profit through trade in humanitarian supplies in the oil for food program (yes, there is proof that the UN leadership was corrupt, but not the supplying countries). The USA was not offering anywhere near the amount of lost revenue.\n\n2-The United States was asking for Turkey to supply troops and access for a fight against what our government said were anti-US terrorists while offering no assistance at all against anti-Turkish terrorists (Kurds, Armenians, etc), even though Turkey has been a loyal member of NATO and ally of the United States since the 1950's.\n\n3-By creating a defacto autonomous Kurdish state in northern Iraq via the 'No Fly Zones' since 1992, the United States had turned a blind eye to the trafficing in weapons and political support to wha the Turkish government feels are isurgents inside Turkey. By replacing the Hussein regime with a potentially unstable successor state, Turkey felt this trafficking could lead to instability in the entire region (there are Kurdish minorities in Turkey, Iran, Iraq, former Soviet Union, etc).

Does a corporation have social responsibilities?

of course! every corporation has to be responsible with everything that it does.  it should, as much as possible try to see to it that each of its stakeholders (people affected by its actions, from investors, employees, suppliers, customers and many others) are benefited with its actions. it should always try to consider the welfare of these stakeholders in making its decisions.  \n\nthis responsibility is intrinsic to every corporation... however, the big question is whether corporations are aware and working towards the fulfillment of such responsibility.\n\nwhen a corporation is fully aware of its social responsibilities and it is able to satisfy them, then probably, fulfilling the said responsibilities will surely increase its profits.\n\nfor example, if a corporation care for its employees, then its employees will be more willing and loyal to do their best in performing their tasks....\n\nif a corporation makes products that are proven to be beneficial to its customers, then it will be able to enlarge its market, thus increasing its profits.\n\nif a corporation has a good relationship with its suppliers then it will be able to get only the best raw materials at lower cost, thus increasing its profits...\n\nand so on....

Rivera,\n\nGood for you! Kudos! Keep a positive attitude, and you should be fine. If you start feeling depressed, go back to or at least call your doctor! I have a friend who had a gastric bypass surgery, a couple of years ago. She looked great for a while, but still felt like she was fat, even though she was at her ideal weight. She became anorexic and became very ill. She has been in therapy for quite a while, but I don't think she is out of the woods yet. She is very much underweight now, and it will take her a long time to get back to being healthy.

Does the moon rotate or spin on an axis?

The moon spins about an axis. The axis is almost perpendicular to the plane of the moons orbit around the earth. The period of spin (time to complete one rotation about the spin axis) is equal to the period of one revolution around the earth.\n\nThe result is we see one side of the moon.\n\nFor many people this answer is not suffice to understand.\nImagine a cubical building in a plain ground. The four vertical walls are marked A,B,C,D. Imagine the building to be the moon and we are standing infront of the wall marked A. Let us go round the building to see the other walls in the order of ABCD. When we have finished quarter round we can have the full view of the wall B. But imagine that the building rotates itself such that when we finished quarter round it also has rotated quarter round about itself. We will see only the wall A. If the things continue like this we can never see the other walls.When we complete one round the building completes one round so always we see only the wall A.\nDue to librations actually we can see 59% of the moon instead of 50%


a guy i used 2 mess witt said he stayed away cuz he didnt wanna love me. an i cant understand that. y is my ?

In a fireplace or outside?  Outside, gas usually get things moving quickly, although, if the wood is wet, gasoline doesn't do much.  When I have started bonfires outside with wet wood, I've made a big pile of wood and put one duraflame log on each side of the pile.  That helped to get things going and the duraflame logs burn long enough to really keep things going.\n\nIn a fire place, you really need to start with small kindling, like pine cones, small dry twigs, medium sized dry sticks, and then let that catch on.  Put large pieces of wood around it, but not big logs.  You have to start small and build up around that.\n\nOther things that work good to get a fire started, you can roll up newspaper, soak it in molten candle wax, then let it dry.  That works out as a good, solid way to get the fire going.  They also sell things in WalMart and places like that that are like Duraflame logs, only much smaller.  Its really just sawdust soaked with wax.  It gets a fire started pretty good too.

Can you train your own service (guide) dog?

That has to be very very hard.  My dad had a German Shepherd that was a stud dog for the guiding eyes for the blind.  Just to get to the point where they decided that he wasn't good enough for that (he was a little skittish at loud sounds) they had already invested thousands in his training.  \n\nDo you want the German Shepherd to be a guide dog for a blind person, or are you just trying to train your dog to get the most out of its capabilities?  If that's the case, then why don't you consider Schutzhund training?  Its a great sport (and growing in popularity) and is a very rewarding way to create an unbelievably strong bond between you and your dog.  Oh, and it doesn't have to be a German Shepherd Dog to be a good Schutzhund dog.  Boxers, Mastiffs, Belgian Malinois, and other dogs can all be great Schutzhund dogs.\n\nHere's a few links to begin your investigation if you are interested in that:\n\nhttp://www.germanshepherddog.com/\nhttp://www.kraftwerkk9.com/

Okay... If ur serious then I'm game!!  The piston is attached to the piston rod.  When the rod is pulled down by the crackshaft, kinda like bicycle pedals.. the piston draws air into the cylinder.  Then the crankshaft pushes the rod and piston up causing compression.  Then the spark plug ignites and blasts the piston and rod back down creating power.  Then the crankshaft pushes the rod and piston back up expelling the waste.  The piston is the 'plunger' of the system, kina like the black rubber plunger in a hypodermic needle.

If you talk to your doctor about your concern with the weight gain I'm sure he/she will come up with something for you. Paroxetine is notorious for weight gain.

I asked my boyfriend,why didn't he call me back and he said,"Damn!" you act like we married.What would u do?

i think that he may have possibly overreacted. however, if you only waited like 5 minutes, you're probably not giving him enough space. if you waited a few hours though, there may have been something more. talk to him about it and let him know how you felt when he said that to you. also. listen to him and geta reason for why he said that. a realtionship is about listening and being able to talk to your dating partner about everything andbeing able to compromise when you make a mistake.

There's a good chance the email address you are forwarding it to is invalid, closed (possibly filled up to its capacity) or no longer exists. There's also the rare possibility of server failure. You have to read the details in the email header and try and trace the path it took. There usually is a message why an email is returned to you amongst those details.

My girlfriend was raped.  What can I do?

I had a friend that was raped, so believe me I know what you're going through.  I know the first thing you want to do is kill this guy, but you have to stay calm and keep yourself together.  Feeling guilty that you weren't there to protect her is natural, but you can't beat yourself up about it.  It's NOT your fault, at all.  You had no idea that she was going to get raped, so please don't feel like it's your fault.  That is the worst thing you could do in this situation.  Your girlfriend is probably reluctant to report the incident because she is terrified.  Being raped is one of the most terrible things that could ever happen to a person.  She is probably still in shock from the incident.  I believe that she is scared to report it because she actually knows the person who did it.  It isn't a stranger, it is an acquaintance.  I'm sure she knows how serious it is, but she might just be scared and embarassed.  Don't force her, just be there for her and comfort her.  Her feelings are very fragile right now, and she will make the decision that she feels best, whether it is reporting the incident or not.  I know you want to help, so support her and talk with her, don't push her to do anything drastic at this time.  I hope this helped even a little bit.\n-L

the battle of the atlantic. what were the consequences of the attackers and defenders?

Which War?  WWI or WWII?\n\nBoth were VERY costly for each side and neutral shipping in general.  The loss rates above are a great start.\n\nThere was also the overall defeat of the German surface navy in both wars, the siege of the Murmansk route to the USSR in WWII which showed a critical vulnerability of that country.  Then there were the German Commerce Raiders which were civilian ships transformed into privateers.  These sunk several ships, but were hunted down eventually.\n\nAlso, WWII saw the introduction of the escort carrier as a means of convoy protection, improvements in SONAR and anti-sub warfare, use of maritine patrol bombers (the ancestors of the UK's Nimrod and USN's P-3 Orion aircraft), the use of supply subs (German 'Milch Cows'), and several other innovations.

It is not something that will end in a matter of months.  \nNot defending or condemning the decision to go, but we have to understand that now that we are there, it may be a while before things calm down


a) First look at the alike terms (3x^2 is alike with 7x^2, 7x is alike with 2x, and 1 is alike with 4). \n\n    7x^2-2x-4\n(-) 3x^2+7x-1\n\nNow, simply subtract the alike terms from each other.\n\n7x^2 (-) 3x^2 = 4x^2\n-2x (-) 7x = -9x\n-4 (-) -1 = -3\n\nSo your final answer would be: 4x^2 - 9x - 3\n\n(b) In order to do this problem, you need to know how to use the FOIL (or distribution) method.\n\nOnce you learn to use the FOIL method, this is how the problem is solved:\n\n(p+2)(p^4-2p^3-3)\n(p^5-2p^4-3p+2p^4-4p^3-6)\n\nNow simply group the alike terms:\np^5-4p^3-5p-6\n\nHope this helps a little!


Is it more beneficial to pay accounts on credit report off or to just settle?

hi briezee1\nThe answer to this is going to be it depends.....First, Are they 100% accuratly reporting on your credit report? Second, Are the creditors the original creditor or collection agency?\n\nThere are a couple of ways of approaching this. If the debt is yours and is reporting 100% accurate I will concur with RICK that you have a moral obligation to repay the debt. With that said, I find it highly unlikely they are reporting 100% accurate.\n\nIf the creditor is an original creditor you may want to consider offering them a settlement. If it's a collection agency you may want to consider sending them a debt validation letter first. You want to know that you have a legal and contractual obligation to pay them and not the original creditor. \n\nIt is also important to know the date of last activity on the account. Even though negative credit may stay on your report for 7 years, most statute of limitations is much shorter. You will want to check your state statute regarding the debt.It is possible the SOL (statute of limitation) is up and the debt is no longer collectable.


how do you get along with a woman who likes to start arguments thensays she doesn"t want to argue?

I learned long ago, you can never win an argument with the woman you love, period. Even if you end up proving you are right, you will pay dearly for it in the long run. Learn to say, "yes dear" or "you know what, I agree" and you will be a much happier man.


It this true or is it a fabrication someone enlighten me!!! I'm suprised?

Well, the translation of Arabic words doesn't communicate the way Arabic does. And, here, yes the meaning might be "terror" but it's not terrorism (or the meaning you are trying to allude). In Encarta dictionary "terror" has these meanings: \n1. intense fear \n2. terrorism \n3. something causing fear. \n\nAnd the situational plot of the hadith was clearly made to the enemies of Islam at that time who continuously worked against Islam, attacked Muhammad, terrorized Muslims & even tried to kill the prophet just because they couldn't accept the truth of Islam. But later, most of the enemies converted to Islam. Muhammad was illegally expelled from his homeland, but later he conquered Mecca. He didn't kill anybody to conquer his homeland. Even when all the hostile enemies were defeated, and Muhammad was asked what to do with those enemies, he just said "they are forgiven". \n\nTo win the war against the aggressive foes, it was necessary to cause them fear. They were scared because they were weak from inside. The hadith above mainly means that.\n\nPlease note that Hadiths are not only quoted in books. They are scrutinized by highly educated scholars according to sitauational plot, time, logic, stress & other subjects. If someone (who never knew arabic) just picks one hadith out of 10,000 & say that Islam is terrorism then won't it be erroneous? I hope you will say "yes".\n\nMay God help people to understand right from wrong.

I think it will eventually. Turkey has cleaned up its human rights record IMMENSELY, and its economy is already better than several current EU member states in Eastern Europe. I think people are nervous about letting it in because its population is growing so quickly and because it is a mostly Muslim state. To tell the truth, I don't think either arguement will hold up much longer. Aging Europe could use the population boost, and the great majority of Europe doesn't profess (or at least practice) ANY religion anymore, Christian or otherwise.\n\nThe only way I can see that Turkey WOULDN'T join is if the EU put them off so long that they finally threw up their hands and gave up. Either that, or if they EU fell apart because of infighting before Turkey got the chance to join.


What are the pests that feed on food waste and why are they dangerous to man?

The two main group of pests that feed on food waste are rodents and insects such as flies and cockroaches. They are dangerous because they can spread disease. The most famous example is the role of the rat in spreading the black death which wiped out up to a third of Europe's population in the 14th century and was a recurring threat to populations until the 1700's. It is widely believed to have been caused by the bacterium Yersinia pestis spread by fleas with the help of animals like the black rat (Rattus rattus).

It helps if you join an organization like IERA you may need to find one in your area like it:\n\nhttp://www.iera.org/\n\nThis way you get forms and advice on what to do as well as free access to a lawyer (once per incident) for questions. \n\nThe basics of what you need to do are to get all your forms ready (this includes lead based paint disclosure, fire alarm battery notice and any other required in your area), then advertise. \n\nWhen people call let them ask you about the place and then show it to them. If they are interested talk with them a bit to make sure they will meet your requirements(they should not pay more than 50% of their take home pay for rent and they should not have horribly lousy credit, they should not have evictions, and anything else you require like no pets or no smoking etc.) \n\nHave them fill out an application and pay the screening fee. Take the advice of the screening company if they say you should not rent then trust them.\n\nOnce you accept them take a first month and damage deposit, and get a last months rent over a few months if you can in your market or if the people are willing. Go over all the forms you got and make sure they know the rules (they must keep the lawn mowed, house looking neat, etc).\n\nThen you are set.\n\nGood luck.


what is sludge stability and what are the processes that involved in it?

The vector attractiveness (frequently associated with odors and unsightliness) of sludge is an important parameter in protecting public health and the public’s acceptance of biosolids land application. Odor is the most common complaint. Currently accepted methods for assessing vector attractiveness of anaerobically digested sludge are either highly variable depending on the influent sludge characteristics or require an exorbitant amount of time to complete. Therefore, a need exists for establishing a more efficient and reliable method to assess the vector attractiveness of sludges treated with anaerobic digestion.

anyone know anything about st. johns wort?

ST JOHN'S WORT - a patient's guide \nNatalie Gauld - Pharmacy Educator \n\n\nUse: mild to moderate depression \n\nSt John's Wort is a herbal remedy, also known as hypericum. It has been used for centuries for depression and anxiety. It is commonly used in Germany and other parts of the world.\n\nThe flowers and leaves of the St John's Wort plant (Hypericum perforatum) are used to make the herbal remedies. These flowers and leaves contain many different compounds including hypericin, which is thought to be one of the compounds that makes St John's Wort helpful for depression and anxiety. These compounds are extracted from the plant matter using alcohol.\n\nSome of the products available are "standardised" for hypericin. This means that the amount of hypericin is measured and should be the same in every single tablet. Therefore, standardised products are more consistent than products that are not standardised. Because there are many different compounds in the plant, it is thought that other ingredients will have an effect on depression also, but because they are not "standardised" they may vary from tablet to tablet. Different brands will have different amounts of hypericin and other ingredients, so it pays to stay with one reputable brand rather than switching from one to another.\n\nSt John's Wort looks very promising as a treatment for mild to moderate depression. There have been comparisons of St John's Wort with other medicines for depression such as imipramine and amitriptyline (tricyclic antidepressants) in tests. These studies have been fairly positive for St John's Wort, indicating that St John's Wort helps with depression and does not have many side effects. Unfortunately the trials have been only for short periods of time (e.g. 4 or 8 weeks), so it is not certain how well St John's Wort will work or whether there will be more side effects over a longer period of use. These studies have usually been carried out with only small numbers of patients, which is also a disadvantage.\n\nSt John's Wort has been compared with older tricyclic antidepressants (e.g. imipramine and amitriptyline), and has generally shown fewer side effects than the tricyclic antidepressants. It would be useful to compare St John's Wort with newer antidepressants such as fluoxetine (Prozac) and paroxetine (Aropax) to see if St John's Wort works as well and if St John's Wort has as few or less side effects, as these medicines are used so commonly now.\n\nIt is not known how St John's Wort works. It is thought that St John's Wort may affect serotonin, noradrenaline and dopamine uptake.\n\nCautions: \n\nDo not use if pregnant or breastfeeding without talking to your doctor first. \n\nIf you are on other medicines check with your doctor or pharmacist before taking St John's Wort. \n\nIf you have liver or kidney problems, or other serious medical conditions it is very important to check with your doctor before taking any herbal remedies. \n\nIf you think you are depressed it is important to talk to your doctor about how you are feeling. More severe and persisting depression may not be responsive to St John's Wort, and it is important to talk to your doctor to discuss if your feelings are due to depression. \n\nSide effects: \n\nThis remedy does not seem to have many problems with side effects, however possible side effects are listed below:\n\nAllergy. \n\nIncreased skin sensitivity to the sun is extremely rare. \n\nSt John's Wort generally does not seem to cause drowsiness and affect the ability to drive, however a very small percentage of people taking it may feel tired. \n\nIncreased sensitivity to touch, temperature and pain is a possibility. \n\nThere may be other side effects, so if you have any unexpected symptoms while taking this medicine, tell your doctor or pharmacist.\n\nInteractions: \n\nThere is a potential with any herbal product or medicine for

You should get married only after you figure out what YOU want out of life.  It's hard to keep someone else happy when you don't know how to keep yourself happy.  Children should only come from a stable, loving home.  So, kids come a few years after marriage, but many couples don't have kids at all.


How did Eli Whitney's TWO major inventions help the north in one case and the south in the other?

Slaves cost something, not only to buy but to maintain; and some Southern planters thought that conditions had reached a point where a slave's labor no longer paid for his maintenance.Eli Whitney made a cotton gin that  helped the south. \n\nIn the North, by manufacturing the cotton gin, he started a system of manufacture which would permit an unskilled man to turn out a product that would be just as good as one made by a highly trained machinist.

Questions to Americans only:) , what do you think about islam? Before & after 11 9 ?

Islam had nothing to do with the sept.11 issue.\n\nIslam is a world religion founded by the Prophet Muhammad. Founded in the 7th cent., Islam is the youngest of the three monotheistic world religions (with Judaism and Christianity). An adherent to Islam is a Muslim [Arab.,=one who submits].\n\nBelievers Worldwide\n\nThere are more than 1 billion Muslims worldwide, fewer than one fifth of whom are Arab. Islam is the principal religion of much of Asia, including Indonesia (which has the world's largest Muslim population), Malaysia, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Afghanistan, Azerbaijan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, Iran, Iraq, Syria, Jordan, the Arabian Peninsula states, and Turkey. India also has one of the world's largest Muslim populations, although Islam is not the principal religion there. In Africa, Islam is the principal religion in Egypt, Algeria, Tunisia, Djibouti, Gambia, Guinea, Libya, Mali, Mauritania, Morocco, Niger, Senegal, Somalia, and Sudan, with sizable populations also in Chad, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Ghana, Tanzania (where the island of Zanzibar is predominantly Muslim), and Nigeria.\n\nIn Europe, Albania is predominantly Muslim, and, historically, Bulgaria, Bosnia, Macedonia, and Georgia have had Muslim populations. Elsewhere in Europe, immigrant communities of Muslims from N Africa, Turkey, and Asia exist in France, Germany, and Great Britain. In the Americas the Islamic population has substantially increased in recent years, both from conversions and the immigration of adherents from other parts of the world. In the United States, the number of Muslims has been variably estimated at 2—6 million; 20% of the population of Suriname is Muslim.\n\nIslamic Beliefs\n\nAt the core of Islam is the Qur'an, believed to be the final revelation by a transcendent Allah [Arab.,=the God] to Muhammad, the Prophet of Islam; since the Divine Word was revealed in Arabic, this language is used in Islamic religious practice worldwide. Muslims believe in final reward and punishment, and the unity of the umma, the "nation" of Islam. Muslims submit to Allah through arkan ad-din, the five basic requirements or "pillars" : shahadah, the affirmation that "there is no god but God, and Muhammad is the Messenger of God" ; salah, the five daily ritual prayers (see liturgy, Islamic); zakat, the giving of alms, also known as a religious tax; Sawm, the dawn-to-sunset fast during the lunar month of Ramadan; and hajj, the pilgrimage to Mecca. The importance of the hajj can hardly be overestimated: this great annual pilgrimage unites Islam and its believers from around the world.\n\nThe ethos of Islam is in its attitude toward Allah: to His will Muslims submit; Him they praise and glorify; and in Him alone they hope. However, in popular or folk forms of Islam, Muslims ask intercession of the saints, prophets, and angels, while preserving the distinction between Creator and creature. Islam views the Message of Muhammad as the continuation and the fulfillment of a lineage of Prophecy that includes figures from the Hebrew Scriptures and the New Testament, notably Adam, Noah, Abraham, Moses, David, and Jesus. Islamic law reserves a communal entity status for the ahl al-kitab, People of the Book, i.e., those with revealed religions, including Jews and Christians. Islam also recognizes a number of extra-biblical prophets, such as Hud, Salih, Shuayb, and others of more obscure origin. The chief angels are Gabriel and Michael; devils are the evil jinn.\n\nOther Islamic obligations include the duty to "commend good and reprimand evil," injunctions against usury and gambling, and prohibitions of alcohol and pork. Meat is permitted if the animal was ritually slaughtered; it is then called halal. Jihad, the exertion of efforts for the cause of God, is a duty satisfied at the communal and the individual level. At the individual level, it denotes the personal struggle to be righteous a

what r d enzymes needed for fermentation of alcohol(ethanol)?

The step from pyruvate (CH3COO-) to Acetalaldehyde (CH2CHO) and CO2 is done by the enzyme pyruvate decarboxylase.  The step from Acetalaldehyde to ethanol (CH3CH2OH) is Alcohol dehydrogenase.  I do not have the chemical structures for the enzymes, because they would be way complicated, but I think what you are looking for is.\n\nC6H12O6 + 2ADP + 2 Pi = 2 CH3CH2OH + 2 CO2 + 2ATP + 2H20

Submit samples to the publications you would like to be featured in.


We believe that 79% of the population of all Business Statistics I students consider statistics an exciting?

Wouldn't the probability than 5 of the 38 thought it was exciting be\n\n38C5(.79^5)(.21^33) = 6.63x10^-18 : basically impossible?  Even if you added in the probabilities of 4, 3, 2, 1, and 0, it's still tiny.\n\nSo I would infer that either the 79% is wrong or the sample was not independently chosen.


how can i get my husbands e-mail addresses other than the safe one he uses?

No way to know unless he tells you. You could check on the one you know of and see his sent mail, maybe he forwarded or sent something to his other names. Good luck.


What is the difference between an opthamologist and an optomotrist?

Ophthalmologists are trained to do surgery. Optometrists are schooled in the developmental (behavioral, functional or environmental) aspects of vision. Optometrists are more apt to use lenses, prisms and vision therapy to enhance and improve visual function. Hope this helps :-)


Did you know that you have as much right to vote as to not vote?

It's more. You have a _responsibility_ to vote. Voting is the orgasm of democracy. Unfortunately, most citizens can't get it up.

I had a Lap done for my Endometeriosis and I wish I had Laparaotomy. The latter is open and they are able to find more when they do that. A good surgeon can do surgery and cause very few adhesions(scarring from surgery). And yes there will be scarring inside and out. But like I said a good suregeon will try to minimize scarring.


Where do I go for modeling and acting auditions in NYC and CT?
