reason for delegation of authority and resposibility?

I don't think your question is directly related to Special Education. Special Education is the provision of services to kids with disabilities.\n\nYou might consider resolving this question by picking a "best answer". This will prevent others from answering. Then, you could re-ask your question in a different, more appropriate category. In this way, you might get more and better answers.\n\nI hope this helps. Good luck with your question

Should the Death Penalty be allow or not allow in the United States I want to hear from the Pros & Cons.?

It is the obligation of all things in this universe to balance itself, there is no choice in the matter.  If you were to rape and or kill my daughter, you wouldn't have to wait for the government to come and bring balance, I would do it myself.  I'm not advocating vigilante justice, but if all the father's in this country would do what I would do, I bet the rape, molestation and murder of our children would end.\nBible says, thou shall not Murder - killing someone is different, there are lots of good reasons to kill someone (once again I'm not saying we should all go out and kill)


Does anyone believe in the Hell depicted in Italian artwork?Do you believe in an incarnation of evil AKA Satan

Definitely, Hell is very real. Why do you think there is hate and sin in the world now. Satan is trying to gain as many followers as he can before Jesus comes again. Satan (AKA Lucifer) was "booted" out of heaven when God realized that Lucifer (his favorite angel at that time) wanted to be God because Lucifer was jealous of God.


Do they wear green on St. Patrick's Day in Ireland?

No we don't, we dont dye our rivers green or drink green beer, we dont sit down to a feast of cabbage and corned beef, or go around pinching someone who isnt wearing green. These are all American customs. In Ireland, the older folks go to mass, the rest of us celebrate with the Patrick's day festival, which lasts for 5 days. On the day itself, we go to the parade, then hit the pub and dance the night away. Check out www.stpatricksday.ie and see all that went on over the week.

How do I conquer fear, doubt and anxiety?

Fear, doubt, and anxiety come from too much attachment to things. You are worried about money, your girl/boyfriend, your reputation, whatever because you care too much about these things. At the risk of sounding too Buddhist or Taoist, empty your self of your desires.\n\nLook at the guy trying to be cool. Is he cool? Nope! In fact, it seems that the guy who tries the least is the coolest; the guy who doesn't worry about getting the girl that gets the girl. Conscious effort and worry gets in your way. If you don't try to be something, you'll find you are that very same something.

How Can I know If a girl is lying to me or not?

It is always tempting to believe all that you read in a nother person's letters. But to be honest with you, and I am a woman of experience, so I know, many girls enjoy the power of toying with a man's emotions.\nYou wrote:\nAnd adviced me that all american girls are like this \nThis is not true, through there are many. This girl may indeed be very shy but I sincerely doubt it. She asks you to come to America to meet with her because she knows you can't afford the money, or time away from your studies. It is a safe request she can make to "prove" she cares about you and makes you look as if you don't care for her as much as she cares for you.\nIf she really cares for you, she would be trying to help find enough money to help pay for your flight over and back. Has she offered? \nYou wrote:\nAnd also she says that she never had a boy friend in her life because she was afraid to confront a boy Face to Face  Could this really Happen ins a country like America?\n Yes, sadly we as a culture, grant status and love to the more attractive people. Those with less than perfect looks are often left to lonliness. She may be afraid of rejection. \n  Why not test her? Tell her you may have found a way to get the money. Ask her to set a date for your arrival. If she's overjoyed, she's sincere but if she makes a lot of excuses and refuses to set a firm date, then she's playing with you. You can explain later that you were unable to raise the money.\n\nIt is my advice that you find a girl closer to home. Long distance romances are painful and almost never work out.

love i m in love how  can i express my love to her?

The easiest way is to tell her.  Those are 3 powerful words!\n\nDo little things for her.  Leave her notes in random places so she finds them throughout the day (in her jacket pocket, on the bathroom mirror, on her pillow, on the steering wheel).  Send her flowers at work.  Cook her favorite meal (or order it in).  I find the little things to speak the loudest:)


What percentage of your life should you aim to be happy, and what do you currently achieve?

Actually, my goal is to make others happy. Chiefly my family. In doing this, they reciprocate and make me happy. I must admit that this evil plan works quite well, and I'm probably happy about 99% of the time. My goal is 100%, but who's complaining?


Which Fighter Plane is better? The JST (Joint Strike Fighter) or the F-22 Raptor?

Better for what mission profile?\n\nThe F/A-22 has a better anti-air suite while the JST is more of a ground attack aircraft.\n\nThe F/A-22 can "supercruise" and has two engines (better for survivability) while the JST has STOL/VTOL capability (varient dependent) and one main drive engine.\n\nThe F/A-22 is much more costly than the JST, but can pay for itself in "kill ratios" or downing more enemy planes which then cost the enemy more in money and trained pilots than the F/A-22 cost the USA.  The JST can do ATA (air to air) engagements very well, but is really meant for CAS (Close Air Support).\n\nThe F-22, under the need for multi-role aircraft, became the F/A-22 during production.  It can carry bombs and ground attack missles, but it's primary mission is ATA.  The JST was designed as a multi-role fighter/bomber from the start.\n\nSo it comes down to mission profiles.  What do you want the aircraft to do?  In all honesty, people keep looking for the "best" whatever.  That is human nature and not meant as an insult.  What people must understand is there is no one "super-system" that is the end-all of warfare.  Each system works with others to achieve the mission.  The truth is the two planes will work together.  Just like tanks work with infantry, artillery, and supporting arms to succeed, planes work together as a team to compliment each other's capabilitys and protect their weaknesses.  Many business models employ the same concepts.

Have you every been in love not love someone it's a difference in being in love and loving someone?

Yes. Several times. When your in love with someone you feel like you can't live without that person in your life. You feel that the person completes you in every way. When you are in love you don't need to speak because you are just happy being together. Its a special feeling.

CAN ANYBODY TELL ME ABOUT Turkish genocid over the Armenians in first WW?

The Armenian Genocide (also known as the Armenian Holocaust or the Armenian Massacre) is a term which refers to the forced mass evacuation and related deaths of hundreds of thousands or over a million Armenians, during the government of the Young Turks from 1915 to 1917 in the Ottoman Empire. Several facts in connection with the event are a matter of ongoing dispute between parts of the \ninternational community and Turkey. Although it is generally agreed that events said to comprise what is termed the Armenian Genocide did occur, the Turkish government rejects that it was genocide, on the alleged basis that the deaths among the Armenians, were not a result of a state-sponsored plan of mass extermination, but from the result of inter-ethnic strife, disease and famine during the turmoil of World War I.\n\nDespite this thesis, most Armenian, Western, and an increasing number of Turkish scholars believe that the massacres were a case of genocide. For example, most Western sources point to the sheer scale of the death toll. The event is also said to be the second-most studied case of genocide, and often draws comparison with the Holocaust. To date 24 countries, as discussed below, have officially recognized and accepted its authenticity as Genocide.\n\nIn 1914, before World War I, there were an estimated two million Armenians in the Ottoman Empire, the vast majority of whom were of the Armenian Apostolic faith, with a small number of the Armenian Catholic and Protestant faiths. While the Armenian population in Eastern Anatolia (also called Western Armenia) was large and clustered, there were large numbers of Armenians in the western part of the Ottoman Empire. Many lived in the capital city of Istanbul.\n\nUntil the late 19th century, the Armenians were referred to as millet-i sadika (loyal nation) by the Ottomans. This meant that they were living in harmony with other ethnic groups and without any major conflict with the central authority. However the Christian Armenians were subject to Islamic dhimmi laws, which gave them fewer legal rights than Muslim fellow citizens. The Tanzimat gave more rights to the minorities in the middle of the 19th century. However, the long ruling Sultan Hamid suspended the constitution early in his reign and ruled as he saw fit. Despite pressure on the Sultan by the major European countries to treat the Christian minorities more gently, abuses only increased.\n\nThe single event that started the chain is most likely the Russian victory over the Ottoman Empire in the War of 1877-78. At the end of this war the Russians took control over a large part of Armenian territory (including the city of Kars). The Russians claimed they were the supporters of Christians within the Ottoman Empire and now they were clearly militarily superior to the Ottomans. The weakening control of the Ottoman government over its empire in the following 15 years led many Armenians to believe that they could regain independence from them.

Example of begging the question fallacy?

Here's an example that I saw a lot in the last set of papers I graded (ugh):\n"Participating in this campaign is not my duty because I have no obligation to do so."\n\nThe conclusion, "Participating in this campaign is not my duty," is justified by the statement, "I have no obligation to do so."  However, the justification is just a restatement of the conclusion, so no real support for the conclusion has been given.  That is begging the question.


The only proven ways to do this is by laser refractive surgery (LASIK) and orthokeratology (ortho-K).  LASIK uses a laser to reshape the front of the eye (the cornea).  Ortho-K uses gas permeable contact lenses to temporarily flatten the cornea.  Contrary to popular belief, vitamin A and other supplements will not help you with this.  You really should discuss your concerns with your eye doctor.  He/she can recommend options that will work for your eyes.

describe how ICS ( integrated circuits) are made: cite example of system that use IC'S ?

This could be a very long answer. Modern ICs begin as a crystal of Silicon (yes, I'm oversimplifying by not mentioning heterogenous material like GaAs, but that's OK).\n\nThese crystals are cut into thin round wafers in a very particular way and polished. These wafers are shipped to a "fab" (short for fabrication line). There, a variety of steps occur. For one, impurity atoms are implanted into the silicon to change certain areas of the wafer's electrical characteristics. Secondly, oxides and other materials are layered on the wafer through "growth" or chemical vapor deposition (there are a few other techniques as well). Lithography is used to control this process. For example, suppose the fab has to "grow" a certain amount of oxide on the wafer. First they will coat the wafer with a light sensitive chemical. Then they will take a "mask" -- a big photographic negative -- and image it on the wafer, exposing the chemical to light. Usually the mask is for only one IC and the wafer will hold many, so a stepper is used to move the mask and make many copies of its image on the wafer. Then the wafer is "developed" which eats away the chemical where the light hit it (or where the light didn't hit it depending on the process used). \n\nOnce this is done, the fab can operate on just the part defined by the mask. So if they put it in an oven for a certain amount of time, the unprotected area will grow an oxide (certain thickness per time). Or they might sputter aluminum on the wafer or use CVD to deposit amorphous polysilicon.\n\nWhen done, a chemical bath strips away the photo chemical (the resist) and the wafer is ready for the next step.\n\nImpurity implantation forms the transistors and resistors on the wafer. A layer of silicon dioxide covers these and has holes etched in it for contacts. Then there is usually a layer of amorphous polysilicon too for other resistors and interconnect wires. Another layer of silicon dioxide is put down and then a layer of alumnimum (or copper in newer chips) form the contact points and the bulk of the interconnecting wires. Also capacitors are formed using plates of aluminum and polysilicon. Then a final passivation layer of silicon dioxide is formed to protect the chip. A lithography step cuts holes in the passivation to allow bond wires to attach.\n\nUsually the wafer is tested at this point and bad chips marked. A machine scores the wafer and cuts it into individual ICs (die at this point). The die are mounted on lead frames and bond wires are attached from the connection points on the die to the lead frames. Finally an epoxy is used to create the actual IC body (the black plastic material). A laser or other means marks the epoxy. The devices are tested and shipped!

doctors discovered that i have an enlarged pitutary gland what are the possible problems this could cause?

That's a complex question. It depends on quite a few factors. An enlarged pituitary can cause a "mass effect" displacing structures from their normal position, such as the optic chiasma, causing vision difficulties. Also the pituitary controls the secretion of a number of hormones, with varying functions. The best thing for you to do is to speak to your physician/neurosurgeon who will be able to better characterize the lesion and give you a more precise answer to your question.

They are mammals that are use to pack goods, like a mule.  They are used to ride, like a camel.  They are used for their wool, like a sheep.  They are sure footed for the mountainous areas of South America and are generally quite docile creatures who do not have the stubborn nature of mules.  The alpaca is just a smaller version of the llama, but are both used the same ways.  An alpaca may not be able to ride if you are too big though.

Why should the currencies of the developing countries be so devalued that they can hardly pay their airfare to

Currency values between countries aren't controlled by any specific agency or anything, they're resultant of the economic factors in the various countries. A country can't just one day say 'hey, our currency's worth 10 times more than it was yesterday!' - it's a measure of how much money will by in the given countries versus production costs, etc. etc. - it isn't a controlled value.


What is the differences between l/c & l/c at sight?

There are two major types of Letters of Credit.\n\n1. Sight L/c.\n2. D.A. L/c. (Usance L/c.).\n\nThe L/c as listed at S.No.1 is always payable by the importer upon presentation of shipping documents to him. The original shipping documents are delivered by the bank to the importer against payment of Invoice Value so that he may get consignment cleared from the shipping company / carrier at the port of destination.\n\nWhereas the D.A. L/c provides time for payment and becomes payable at a maturity date which may be fixed as per L/c terms.  The banks under such L/c deliver original documents to the importer without spot payment after obtaining his signatures on certain documents, such as Bill of Exchange, etc.  There are different ways to fix a maturity date for payment. Such ways are always specified in the L/c at the time of opening. This is a vast subject which cannot be explained in one or two pages. You may contact any nearer branch of a bank who deals in Trade Finance Services (i.e. Imports, Exports, etc.).

Explain the difference in ionization energy between lithium and beryllium.?

Ok, so Lithium and Beryllium are in the same period (2). Lithium is number 3 and beryllium is number 4, so they are consecutive elements. According to periodic law, as you go across a period or down a group, there are certain trends to be observed. As you go across a period, electrons are being added into the same principle energy level, so the atomic radius is decreasing with each consecutive element because there are more electrons and a stronger nuclear charge pulling them in. Therefore, the ionization energy increases because the closer the electrons are to the nucleus, the more energy is required to remove 1 electron from the atom.\nThis means that Lithium has a lower ionization energy than Beryllium becuase in Beryllium the electrons are closer to the nucleus and harder to remove.\n\nHopefully this helps, with any other chemistry questions you can e-mail me at: sw822c@yahoo.com

Anyone know a man who suffered the wrath of rape, breast cancer, or spousal abuse--FIRST HAND?

Male rapes constitute about five to 10 percent of all rapes. \n\n* Most perpetrators self-identify as heterosexual.\n\n* Most offenders are white.\n\n* Most offenders are in their early to mid-20s. \n\n* Most offenders rape out of anger or to overpower, humiliate and \n     degrade their victims rather than out of lust or passion or  \n     sexual desire.\n\n* Most victims are usually in their late teens to late 20s at the \n     time of assault.  \n\n* African Americans are over represented as victims in proportion \n     to their level in the population of the community studied.  \n\n* When documented at all, gay men were raped at rates higher then \n     heterosexual men.\n\n* Weapons are frequently used in male rape and at a much higher   \n     rate than that of women.  \n\n* Multiple assailants are more common in the rape of men than of\n     women.  \n\n* Anal penetration of the victim was the most common form of     \n     assault  Oral penetration was the second most common.  \n\n* Stigma and shame are common responses from male rape victims.   \n     This is followed by guilt.  \n\n* Like women, rape trauma syndrome immediately following a male   \n     rape is common.  \n\n* The most common psychiatric diagnosis is post traumatic stress\n     disorder.\n\n* Contemplation of suicide is fairly common among male rape     \n     survivors, especially among those men who feel that they     \n     cannot reach out for the support that they so desperately\n     need.  \n\n* The studies draw conflicting conclusions as to the degree of    \n     stranger versus acquaintance rape, likely as a result of the \n     different population samples used.

Which is best for girls Tampon or Safety Napkin?

TO be perfectly honest, if its a young girl, I would say a pad.  Tampons, if left in long, could cause Toxic Shock Syndrome.  Its nice to have tampons because it leaves you to move around better.  But... here's some info.\n\nThere are actually two different types of this condition. Toxic shock syndrome, which is caused by Staphylococcus aureus bacteria, has been associated with the use of tampons. (TSS was initially linked to a particular brand of tampons, which have since been taken off the market.) Although the exact connection is still not clear, researchers suspect that certain types of high-absorbency tampons provided a moist, warm home where the bacteria could thrive. \n \nAlthough TSS usually occurs in menstruating women, it can affect anyone who has any type of staph infection, including pneumonia, abscess, skin or wound infection, a blood infection called septicemia, or a bone infection called osteomyelitis. \n \nA related infection, streptococcal toxic shock syndrome, or STSS, is caused by streptococcus bacteria. Most often STSS appears after streptococcus bacteria have invaded areas of injured skin, such as cuts and scrapes, surgical wounds, and even chickenpox blisters. It almost never follows a simple streptococcus throat infection (strep throat). \n \nFemales can reduce their risk of TSS by either avoiding tampons or alternating them with sanitary napkins. If a girl uses only tampons, it's important to choose tampons with the lowest absorbency that will handle her menstrual flow and to change the tampons frequently. Between menstrual periods, it's a good idea to store tampons away from heat and moisture (where bacteria can grow) - for example, in a bedroom rather than in a bathroom closet. \n\nHope that helps you.

Why is it that younger teens are getting pregnate? Dont they know about birth control? Where are the parents?

I think a lot of them come from families where parents don't care or the parents care *too* much. You wouldn't believe the amount of parents I've seen that are so protective of their daughters that they don't even want them to *see* the word sex because they think it's inappropriate. We're talking about 12 year old girls here. A good parent would talk to their daughters around this age and let them know what's appropriate and what's not appropriate. Some of you may say, "12 is too young to have sex" and I agree, but never telling your children about it is wrong. Not telling a 12-year-old girl, at the brink of puberty about sex can set her up for problems later on. How would a child this age know if she was being molested if she had no idea what was taking place? Knowledge is power and parents should be giving their children that gift. Just because you talk to your kids about it doesn't mean you're condoning it (do parents that talk to their kids about cigarettes encourage them to smoke?). Parents should be taking a realistic approach and teach their kids to wait until they're absolutely ready to have sex (as "don't have sex" just doesn't seem to be cutting it anymore) and if they are going to have sex, to use protection. Kids should be aware of the consequences that sex involves. If parents try to shelter their children to the point where they get none of this information, I guarantee that those kids are going to be 14-year-old mothers, all the while the parents asking, "What did I do wrong?"

Because there is so many road blocks out there that get in your way. It is not supposed to be easy to find your true love. If it was no one would suffer from heartache.

Hindu god.  Krishna (कृष्ण in Devanagari, IAST kṛṣṇa) is according to common Hindu tradition the eighth avatar of Vishnu. In Gaudiya Vaishnavism, he is seen as the Supreme Person (God) and thus the origin of all other incarnations.\nKrishna and the stories associated with him appear across the spectrum of Hindu philosophical and theological traditions. Though they sometimes differ in details or even contradict each other reflecting the concerns of a particular tradition, some core features are shared by all. These include a divine incarnation, a pastoral childhood and youth and life as a heroic warrior and teacher. The immense popularity of Krishna in India also meant that various non-Hindu religions that originated in India had their own versions of him.\n\nHe is not the elephant god.  That's Ganesh!!!

What national park in South Dakota did General Alfred Sully call “Hell with the fires out”?

It was actually in reference to the Theodore Roosevelt National Park (TRNP) badlands in North Dakota.  The link below has a picture of the spot where Sully first saw the badlands, Painted Canyon which is part of TRNP.  In addition, the text refers to Sully's unit moving along the Little Missouri, which runs through TRNP.

It depends on where they are working, which state or province, whether they have a private clinic or work in the education system or health care system.  Where I live starting salary in a government job would be about $45,000 and could probably go as high as $75,000 in the richer jurisdictions, but I expect they make more money if they are in private practice.

I have high blood pressure. Does anyone know of a herbal remedy that really works?

What is the origin of your high blood pressure?\nMaybe some other diseases coexist?\nIf we don't know that and what kind of therapy you have taken, if you are pre or post menopausal, if your parents had high BP, we can't talk about natural remedies.\nAs I use to say, in health one size does not fit all.\nAccording my opinion it is dangerous to try substitute your medicines with herbal remedies of any kind without your doctor's opinion.\n\nConsider also the following things\n- usually, herbal remedies are used along with the medicine\n- the form in which you will take the herbal remedy: if you will use garlic, as has been mentioned, what will be the amount that you have to take?\nIs garlic proper for your type of hypertension?\nIf you will drink an infusion(a tea of the herb),what will be the amount of the active substance that will be found in diluition in this infusion? How many cups you have to drink daily?\n \nTry to adopt a healthy life-style that I'm sure you have already adopted, to loose weight, practice some "light" sport like aerobic, walk for 1/2 - 1 hour daily and  try to control your stress ; at this point, a herbal infusion containing relaxing herbs is mostly helpful. Take care also if you take any antiinflammatory medicins, as they can slightly increase your BP.\n\nKaterina


What is the mass of half a cup of gravel?

The mass of half a cup of gravel is the property of matter equal to 0.24 liters (240 cubic/cm) of the gravel's resistance to changes in either the speed or direction of its motion. The mass of the gravel is not dependent on gravity and therefore is different from but proportional to its weight.\n\nI took 6 gravel samples from my backyard and weighed it.  I threw out the largest and smallest number then averaged the remaining 4 values.  I came up with an average gravel weight of 1128 grams per cup. or 564 grams per 1/2 cup.


Or to put in simpler terms, ABI is the ratio of blood pressures in the arm versus the ankle.  In healthy people, the blood pressure in both is the same and the ratio is 1.  In people with peripheral vascular disease, the leg arteries get clogged and the flow there drops down. Less flow means lower blood pressure in those arteries.  In that case ratio of Ankle artery/brachial (arm) artery goes down. The above post delves into the specifics.  Hope that helps.

What can you tell me about. First aid before 1534 in North America.  Native and Inuit tradional knowlege.?

It is old legend that in the beginning, animals and people would talk with each other. But then people got greedy and began to kill animals unneccesarily, so communication was stopped. Each animal devised it's own revenge against humans, which began the tradition of praying and thanking an animal for it's life before you kill/eat it. The prayer and thanks would keep the animal from cursing the people. The plants heard of this, and decided to counteract and help the humans. When people went to the Shaman with ailments, the Shaman would communicate with the plants and they would tell him the right treatment or remedy for that particular ailment. So, not very specific, but hope it is helpful. Good Luck with your research!


why some times some pepole can't understand that there is some pepole there mother tunge are not English?

Because only 10 to 20% of them have gone abroad and has the chance to see the world.  And their educational system is delivered only in English.  Unlike in non-English speaking countries, they have the option to study their native language plus English as a second language.  Some entertainment media are also typically available in English like the movies, music, etc. In a sense, they are luckier because they know more than one language.

Are bad words bad by themselves, or because we are too sensitive to hear someone say them or why?

No, bad words are by default "neutral". It is its intention and usage that makes it offensive. Different cultures have different ways of perceiving various words. As such, some culture may not consider a particular word overly offensive, than as much as a form of expression - e.g. Great Scott! I suggest further reading of an article by Claudia Chapman published in Mothering magazine (see sources).


i cant connect to citrix but wen i try to use other browser my citrix is connected why it is happend?

Right click on the Citrix icon on the taskbar of your screen and click the logoff button. Try reconnecting again.\n\nIf you still can't connect, one thing you can try is to telnet to port 1494 of your Citrix server - from a command prompt, telnet citrix.yourcompany.com 1494. If it is functional, you should see a screen that says ICA...ICA...ICA... (press the X in the corner to close it).\n\nIf you don't see this, contact your IT department. There's probably something wrong with the Internet connectivity or the server.

is Nigeria the poorest country in the world?

In the last decade, we have seen the birth of terms such as "4th world countries"...these are countries that are so under-developed that they cannot sustain their economies under any circumstances. Nigeria is still a sustainable economy since it has some wealth in natural resources like oil & gas.......\n\nI think know, the poorer countries are those that are recently emerging from civil war e.g. rwanda, somalia, sierra leone etc...their infrastructures is very impaired as a result of the war.

Why Didn't The Airborne Take Out The Pillboxes At Normandy?

The purpose of the airborne troops was to seize key transportation junctions to stop the arrival of reinforcements and confuse the higher command. In that way, the German defenses along the coast could be better isolated and destroyed by the landing troops.\n\nThe destruction of pillboxes, which are hardened targets, require lots of specialized equipment such as shaped charges and engineering equipment. A paratrooper is extremely limited in the amount of equipment he can carry when he jumps. If he is too heavy, he will fall too fast and will be break a leg or even his neck when he hits the ground. Because the Allies were landing in extremely bad weather so the Germans would believe there would be no landing that day, any heavy equipment either would be blown off course in the wind, or would have to go in the gliders which turned out to be very fragile.\n\nI hope this helps.


How does colloquialism, humour and rhetoriacal questions help people convey impressions in writing?

All three of these things create an informal, almost conversational way of writing. Sometimes this can make a stronger impression on a reader because he or she doesn't feel badgered with convoluted text but rather touched on a personal basis by your writing. Often times, the writing will be more alive and more interesting too, but it depends on your intended audience.


Can water be compress into something else?

Water can be compressed, but very little even at high pressures.  For practical design purposes, water is considered an incompressible fluid, that is, its density does not change with pressure.  The reason anything is compressible is due to how close the atoms are packed together.  If you think about air, it is highly compressible because there is considerable spacing between the atoms, so it is relatively easy to force the atoms closer together.  When you have a liquid, the atoms are much closer together and considerable pressure is required to make them any closer.  Temperature also plays a factor in density and thus \ncompressibility.

The new TV show  Black..White what do you think?

i think that the white parents are coming off as being extremely ignorant and out of touch. i can however understand that until you have experienced racial discrimination on a real and regular basis, that it would be easy to see it as "over-reacting" (e.g., the situation in the clothing store). i think the truth probably lies somewhere in the middle. the white girl is the best so far. the black boy seems pretty indifferent on the whole thing.

How does it feel to have sex for the 1st time in your life?

Expect it to be a disappointment. Male or female virgins are not going to have some epiphany when they lose it. Our society puts so much emphasis on sex that the first sexual encounter has taken on almost a religious status. The physical reality is not so romantic or dramatic.\n\nFor the woman, it will be from mildly uncomfortable to painful the first time. She may or may not bleed, but unless there is something wrong, there won't be much blood and the pain is a memory after few few tries.\n\nFor the man, it is a good idea to learn a few things about your body, too. It will not hurt but you need to be responsible just like your partner and you need to make sure you're extreme sensitive and gentle if your partner is a virgin, too.\n\nNo one is going to look stupid unless one of the people involved is an insensitive lout. Don't pretend not to be a virgin if you are, then you're asking for trouble. This is a time for communication and openness. BE CAREFUL!

Does anyone think that George Mason has a chance to win the NCAA basketball tournament?

They have been playing great with some hard fought victories over three great teams (Mich St, UNC, and UCONN).  I don't think they have a chance of winning the tournament though, as they do not match up well against Florida, LSU, or UCLA.  These are three physical teams with great defensive skills.  GMU is a quick team, but I don't think they have the physical players to win a slug-fest with any of these teams.

How many states should there be in the Union?

Good question. Most answers are wrong. The Union is a spiritual, not a geographical idea. It is about a state of law, governments that are responsible to the people, protection of human and civil rights, control of dangers to the citizens, working for welfare and peace. Any country that fulfills the Copenhagen criteria should join: Turkey, Romania, Ukraine. Putin of Russia has said that he is waiting at the door of the Union. Do not let him wait too long. Yes, off course: New Zealand, Australia can join and each state of the USA.

Urban myths: Is it true that when you are having a heart attack it is a good idea to start coughing?

No. Not at all.\n\nSnopes.com have debunked this one pretty thoroughly. Here is an extract (click on the link below to read the whole thing)...\n\n\nDr. Richard O. Cummins, Seattle's director of emergency cardiac care, explains that cough CPR raises the pressure in the chest just enough to maintain some circulation of oxygen-containing blood and help enough get to the brain to maintain consciousness for a prolonged period. But cough CPR should be used only by a person about to lose consciousness, an indication of cardiac arrest, he cautions. It can be dangerous for someone having a heart attack that does not result in cardiac arrest. Such a person should call for help and then sit quietly until help arrives, he says.\n\nIn other words, the procedure might be the right thing to attempt or it might be the very thing that would kill the afflicted depending on which sort of cardiac crisis is being experienced. Without a doctor there to judge the situation and, if cough CPR is indicated, to supervise the rhythmic coughing, the procedure is just far too risky for a layman to attempt.\n\nForget about coughing — key to surviving a heart attack is obtaining proper medical assistance within a very limited window of opportunity. Once an acute myocardial infarction (AMI) has been diagnosed, speedy injection of thrombolytic agents to dissolve clots is of the utmost importance — the more quickly those drugs are delivered, the better the chances of survival are. It's a race against the clock.\n\nMost patients who present with minor chest pains usually look healthy and show no signs of a heart attack. Electrocardiogram (ECG) results tell the story though, so be sure to insist upon one being performed if you've any doubts at all. Often mild heart attacks are left untreated and undetected because hospital staff mistake a heart attack for something more benign because the presenting symptoms are minor.\n\nRather than risk killing yourself with cough CPR, those experiencing a heart attack should heed the advice of physicians the world over — down a couple of Aspirin as an emergency remedy. Doctors believe that during the early stages of a heart attack, Aspirin — which is known to prevent blood platelets from sticking together — can prevent a clot from getting bigger. In 1991 Dr. Michael Vance, president of the American Board of Emergency Medicine, recommended that people who think they are having a heart attack should "Call 911, then take an Aspirin."

i am starting a new business in california. it is a concrete pumping job. what do u think is a fair wage.?

You need to do some research to determine what the mean salary is for jobs like this.  You man not find something exact, but you should be able to get pretty close.  You may want to check with the Employment Office or other labor resources.  It really really depend upon the area in California.  In LA you would probably have to pay more than you would in Northern California.


Why is it that every time i pick my nose it just fills up agin in a few minuits? Funk that?


Is there really a G-spot, have you found it? was it better then the Clit?

yes there is a 'g spot' a male one and a female one. the female 'g spot' can be found by placing a finger inside of the vagina. if you curve your finger upward toward her belly button and move your finger in a come here motion you'll find it. is it better than the Clit? that all depends on what a girl likes. me personally I like both and sometimes at the same time :)\nfor a guy (like it or not) a man's 'g spot' is in his (yes) bottom. while laying on his stomach if a woman inserts her finger into his bottom and presses down toward his belly button, that'll give any man a very interesting feeling, only making his erection stronger. don't be squeamish and don't laugh you asked :)


why does Yahoo download spyware (AveA) while simultaneously offering spyware protection?

Forget about Yahoo...\n\nFor spyware solutions, Spybot Search & Destroy works very well.  If you are willing to try Microsoft's beta, you can also consider defender.  Both are currently free.\n\nhttp://www.safer-networking.org\nhttp://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=435bfce7-da2b-4a6a-afa4-f7f14e605a0d&DisplayLang=en\n\nAlways remember that an ounce of prevention is worth more than a pound of cure.  That said, do not visit unknown websites, open suspicious emails and attachments, or click on links that you don’t know what it’s for.  Also, always keep your anti-spyware and antivirus programs on.  These simple guidelines will save you from hours of headaches with pop-up ads and computer slow down.  Good luck and have a nice day!

Who enjoyed, "Edward Scissorhands" and what did you like about it?

I enjoyed it very much.  I still have all of my ticket stubs from seeing this movie at the theatre, 6 times!  I was only 10 y/o or so, but I still love it!  I sometimes mob in my car rockin' out to the "Edward Scissorhands" soundtrack.  I can't tell you exactly why, I just do.  The colors, the music, Dianne Wiest is great, I've had the hots for Johnny Depp since 21 Jump Street, I love the sculptures Edward creates with the bushes and the dogs...so many good things!!!

What are the requirements for a valid constitutional amendment?

It requires a few things.  The hardest of which is getting approval of 3/4's of the States to approve it.  If memory serves the State's Governors vote.  Because 3/4's of the people rarely agree on anything....it is a VERY difficult standard to meet.  If memory serves it requires two thirds of the Senate to approve the ammendment for submission to the Governors, and 2/3rds of the house to approve it's submission to the Senate.

i had my tooth`s nerve taken off,what complications i might have?

It sounds like you had a root canal. Good for you, saving your tooth is very importan. If you had a root canal, you need to have a crown placed on the tooth, espescially if it is a back tooth. Teeth become brittle once this is done and they are very likely to break. Protect your investment by having a crown placed. Did your dentist not mention this?

what is the story "the sky is gray" about?

The action in ‘‘The Sky is Gray’’ is broken up into thirteen short sections which describe a half day or so in the life of James, an eight-year-old black boy in the rural South of the late 1930s. The story begins with James and his mother waiting, on a painfully cold morning, for the arrival of a bus which will take them to nearby Bayonne. As they wait, his mother thinks about home—about his aunt, the other children, the farm animals and the weather—the narrative follows James’s thoughts back to the origins of his toothache. \n\nA short summary: James tooth is hurting. He doesn't want to tell anybody because his family doesn't have enough money. His mama finds that out, and she goes with him to a dentist. An old lady sees them going along the same street several times, and she gives them food and something to drink.  In other words, a poor black boy gets his first taste of racism when he takes a trip with his mother.\n\nThe book was made into a movie by the way.\n\nThat's about as much as I can tell you.  I hope it helps.


I am looking at building a new house. How do I negotiate a better price with the builder.?

Tell the contractor that you will take care of some of the line items.  For example, the plumbing/electrical on the home is the most expensive and is marked up the highest by the contractor, because he received bids from companies who do this work, and then they mark it up even more.  So suggest that you take care of either the plumbing, electrical, or cabinets/countertops and you should save a lot of money right there.

how do i get my boyfriend to porpose to me?

if you want to get married you need to make it very clear to him. If he does not want to get married but insists that he loves you - you will have to make the very hard decision to either stay and wait- and waiting could mean waiting forever - he may never ask... Or you can choose to walk away from the relationship with the knowledge that it is always better to have loved and lost than to never have loved at all...  I made that choice years ago - to walk away from someone I loved and who loved me. He was not ready. I was. I decided to let him go free and in so doing I set myself free.  I have never once regretted that. I am a better person for that relationship and I have been married to my best friend and lover for 5 years now -AND we have twin boys who are 9 months old!  Do what your heart leads you to do and it will all turn out right.


Unfortunately, there isn't much you can do about this affliction. A hickey is nothing more than a bruise, and like all bruises it just needs some time to heal. You can, however, try a few tricks to make it fade faster. \n\nBut you can also try to apply a cold compress immediately (although that may interrupt a moment of passion). Keep the compress on 20 minutes, off 20 minutes. The cold will constrict blood vessels and help keep the bruise from spreading. \n  \n2.   If the hickey lasts for more than 48 hours, apply wet, warm compresses to decrease any pain or swelling. Once the blood has stopped spreading around the bruise, apply heat, which dilates blood vessels and thus speeds up the sweeping away of blood cells. In most cases, moist heat is more effective than dry heat, because the moisture helps wick the heat beneath the skin. \n  \n3.   Apply concealer in a shade that's lighter than your natural skin color and discreet enough to fend off unwanted attention.  \n  \n4.   Remember that if all else fails, nothing beats a turtleneck sweater - or a scarf in summer.

how do you transform a  disposable society?

We had a natural disaster.  We learned for a period.  And then we went back to our normal habits.  We had a terrorist attack.  We learned for a period and went right back to our old habits.  Some one said to set an example.  And she is right.  If we do as we want to be treated its a start.  Teach our children these same values its a start.  If we think we a disposable, then we will be treated as such.  If we think we are replacable, then we will be.  See what I mean.  Examples and behavior is the key.  Its slow in coming but its the best we have.  Disasters dont teach us perminantly to change.  It takes patience.

What's the name of that Japanese man who manufactured the painless needle/syringe? (He was featured on CNN.)

Though injections are vital for preventing and treating diseases, they are almost universally disliked by children and adults. The fear of injections, however, may soon be a thing of the past. In July 2005, a painless needle went on sale to hospitals and other medical facilities. The instrument was jointly developed by two Tokyo-based companies - Terumo Corporation, a medical equipment manufacturer, and Okano Industrial Corp., a firm with an international reputation for its metal-pressing technology - with the goal of reducing the pain of shots.\n\n Okano Masayuki, is known as a world-class craftsman and has been called a "metalwork magician."

what is compensative learning for the hearing impaired children?

I believe the term you speak of is "compensatory skills".  They are the skills children who are visually impaired or hearing impaired need to learn to "compensate" for their disability.  For example, the child who is visually impaired may need to learn Braille while the child who is hearing imparied may need to learn American Sign Language.  There are many other compensatory skills they may need to learn depending on the child and the severity of the disability.\n\nThe links I've attached have a wealth of information about teaching children who are hearing impaired or visually impaired.  \n\nI hope this information is of some help to you.


How would you gauge the level of destruction Bush and his Goons are inflicting upon the American people?

The destruction Bush has accomplished is no so much in the physical but in the philosophical aspect of this country.  Religious beliefs can be very influencing which is why they were separated from the government by The Framers of The Constitution.  Bush has repeatedly brought his Protestant beliefs into The White House and is proud to admit it.  Even worse than this is the use of "spin" and even Bush made news that T.V. station were paid to air.  The Bush administration has truly started America on a path away from US key values, away from The Constitution.


If I have a number and I need to convert it to a number squared or cubed how do I do so?

A number squared is that number multipled by itself (3 squared = 9, 8 squared = 64 etc).\n\nIf a number is cubed it is multipled by itself 3 times (3 cubed = 27, 8 cubed = 512 etc).\n\nA number multiplied by itself X number of times is often referred to as the number to the power X so 10 to the power 5 is the same as 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 x 10.\n\nDont get squared and cubed confused with square root or cubic root.  A square root of a number is the number which when multiplied by itself returns you to the original number.  E.g. the square root of 36 is 6, the square root of 81 is 9.\n\nLikewise cubic root is a number which when multiplied by itself and multipled again returns you to the original number, e.g. the cubic root of 27 is 3 (3 x 3 x 3 = 27)

If you are asking about RAM memory, it depends on what your BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) specifies (oversimplified: it's how much memory your computer will recognize).  If you are asking about hard drive memory (which is entirely different from RAM memory), that is limited only by the number of physical drives you have and how large each drive is.  There are many more types of memory that your computer uses. If you are interested, visit the link I've provided.


My daughter uses myspace she said that no1 can look at hers if she does not add them as a friend is this true?

since she is 14 no one can see her page unless they are her friend.  to make sure this is true  make sure she isn't signed on and go to her page.  you will see what everyone sees.  since her myspace is private all they see is a contact box, a picture, age location and headline, and then just her myspace song.\n\nwoah those people above are really tooting their own horns.. just look at her myspace sometime and you will see that she is safe.  once she turns sixteen tho, everyone is able to see her page, and there is no way around this without risking profile deletion. just teach her not to put personal information up, including what school she goes to.

What does Triaminic, Dimetap, Equate, and Tylenol mean?

Those are product names. \n\n"Legally, trademark names should not be the name of the product itself, only to designate origin of the product. A classic example is Tylenol (R). If you look through a drug store, you will find that the company had registered Tylenol (R) as a trademark. The produce that you purchase, however is not TYLENOL (R), but instead one of many products, such as TYLENOL (R) Cold and Sinus Medicine, or TYLENOL (R) Pain Relievers. In most of these products, the generic name is acetaminophen. This is akin to putting the cultivar name in single quotes beside the marketing name. Trademark names cannot not belong to a particular item or plant, no matter how many times the owner of the trademark tries to convince you otherwise. The two most commonly known examples of trademarks being invalidated because of this are Aspirin and Escalator."


Please suggest some good exercises to firm  my butt without lifting weight etc.?

The correct way to do a squat, this is how I do it with a barbell. You should use little weight.\n\nFace the bar lift it up with your hands just outside your shoulders, and your elbows pointing down.\n\nRest bar on your back, then you pull your shoulder blades together your traps will form a nice shelf for the bar to  rest upon.\n\nSet your feet shoulder-width apart, bend your knees slightly. \n\nFrom here you descend, you must bend your hips and knees at the same time, to lower your body. Then squat (bend down), make sure your heels stay flat on the floor.\n\nhttp://www.stumptuous.com/images/backsquatmiddle.jpg - picture for squat\n\nFor the lunge you can use ether barbell or dumbells. I think you should use dumbells with little weight. Grab a pair of dumbells one for each hand. Stand with your feet hipwidth apart, then take a long step forward. You want to step far enough so that when you lower your body into the lung position, the shin of your forward leg is perpendicular with the floor. Then execution, lower you body until the knee of your rear leg almost touches the floor. Pause, then raise yourself until your front knee is nearly straight. Keep your torso upright throughtout the movement. Finish the set then switch legs.\n\nhttp://www.t-nation.com/img/photos/04-017-training/image004.jpg - picture for lunge

what is the USA doing about Osam bin Ladden?

Much of the information that you want lies with the FBI and related agencies and is confidential.  But, you can know what is public.\n\nThe United States Department of State is offering a reward of US$25 million for information leading to bin Laden's capture. An additional reward of $2 million is being offered by the Airline Pilots Association and the Air Transport Association. While bin Laden's current whereabouts are unknown, the most popular assumption is that he is hiding in Pakistan's tribal region of Waziristan bordering Afghanistan, or, more specifically, near the small Pakistani market town of Chitral. If bin Laden is in Pakistan, it is possible that he benefits from local support by the Waziri. With the inhospitable mountainous terrain and uncertainty about the cooperation of Pakistani intelligence, the United States faces many difficulties in pursuing his capture, despite a wide array of sophisticated eavesdropping sensors deployed in the region.

Why do anyone want to enter any of the health service professions?

Who uses the Wechsler Individual Achievement Test and why?

The Wechsler Individual Achievement Test (WIAT) is not an intelligence test as the previous poster indicated but is an individual academic achievement test designed by the same company as the WEchsler IQ tests, and so it is easily compared to these tests.  People who use the WIAT often do so because it is so easy to do comparisons between the WIAT and the WEchsler IQ scales, making it easier to determine discrepancies, identify learning disabilities, etc.  Sometimes it is used simply to determine a child's skill level based upon that test's norms and comparing the child to other children his age.  The WIAT offers a variety of norms, which many assessors like.  Many people like it because it is administered in a similar manner to the WEchsler IQ scales, and individuals adminsitering the WIAT are often very familiar with the format for administration of the IQ tests.  The WIAT flows well, and in my opinion is a superior instrument to others of the same type - Kaufman Test of Educational Achievement or Peabody Individual Achievement Test for example, and gives a more usable range of information.  The WIAT provides a measure of both listening comprehension and reading comprehension, which helps in identifying learning disabilities.  The scores can be used to compare a child's current level of achievement with what would normally be expected at his grade or age level.\n\nThe WIAT-II presents one item at a time without time limits, except for the Written Expression subtest.  It offers standard scores, percentile ranks, stanines, and other scores, based either on the student’s age (four-month intervals for ages 4 through 13, one-year intervals for ages 14 through 16, and one interval for ages 17 through 19) or the student’s grade (fall, winter, and spring norms for  grades Pre-K through 8, full-year norms for grades 9 through 12, and separate college norms), compared to a random, stratified, nationwide sample of  3600 students.  About 9% of the students were identified as having educational disabilities, but not serious neurological disorders.  All students spoke English.  A sample of 1,069 students was given both the WIAT-II and a Wechsler Intelligence Scale so that examinees’ WIAT-II scores can be compared to achievement scores predicted from their intelligence scale scores on the basis of actual test scores from the sample.  Achievement scores predicted from intelligence tests fall closer to the mean (standard score 100, percentile rank 50) than the intelligence scores from which they are predicted.\n\nThe test can be administered by special education teachers who have completed masters level assessment courses.  It is often administered by learning disabilities specialists, reading specialists, educational psychologists, psychometrists, etc.\n\nI hope this information is helpful to you.

A felony, in many common law legal systems, is the term for a "very serious" crime, whereas misdemeanors are considered to be less serious offenses.\n\nCrimes which are commonly considered to be felonies include, but are not limited to: aggravated assault, arson, burglary, murder, and rape. Those who are convicted of a felony are known as felons. Originally, felonies were crimes for which the punishment was either death or forfeiture of property. Nowadays, felons can receive punishments which range in severity; from probation, to imprisonment, to execution. In the United States felons often receive additional punishments such as the loss of voting rights, exclusion from certain lines of work, prohibition from obtaining certain licenses, exclusion from purchase/possession of firearms or ammunition, and ineligibility to run for or be elected to public office. In addition, some states consider a felony conviction to be grounds for an uncontested divorce.\n\nThe distinction between a felony and misdemeanor has been abolished by some common law jurisdictions (e.g. Crimes Act 1958 (Vic., Australia) s. 332B(1), Crimes Act 1900 (NSW., Australia) s. 580E(1)); other jurisdictions maintain the distinction, notably those of the United States. Those jurisdictions which have abolished the distinction generally adopt some other classification, e.g. in Canada and New South Wales, Australia and the United kingdom the crimes are divided into summary offences and indictable offences

who is the best ac malin or inter malin? and why?

AC Milan at this point in time is the better of the teams but not by too much. This season Inter has bought some great players like Figo, Samuel, Solari and still has Veron. AC Milan should stay a major club but might start not doing as well when their veterans all stop playing. When I last checked majority of the players in their tems were over 30 years of age. Big up side for Inter Milan is Adriano, watch out for him at the world cup, he has amazing skills, powerful shot, strong, fast and great in the air. AC Milan (2nd) are only 5 points ahead of Inter in the Serie A in 3rd position. They are both in the quarter finals of Champions League. I think AC Milan is stronger but time will tell when there many Veterans retire and their team is unsettled.
