can you explain the fetal pig circulatory system?

I don't know as for pigs specifically but the circulatory systems of most mammals should be broadly similar - there will merely be small differences in the structure of the haemoglobin between individual species. The main differences between foetal and normal circulatory systems have to do with the placental route, as the position of the components of the vascular system will be the same as postnatal. The placenta is the organ which allows oxygen from the mother's blood to pass through into the foetal blood, and waste products such as CO2 to pass from the foetal blood back into the mother's blood. It has a good blood supply and is attached to the uterine wall. It will come out as afterbirth at the end of labour. \n\nSo, when the mother's blood flows into the placenta it is oxygenated. The maternal and foetal blood does not mix but comes into contact on either side of a thin membrane which is oxygen permeable. The only way that the foetus is able to grab the oxygen from the maternal blood is because it has a special kind of haemolglobin, foetal haemoglobin (HbF) with a higher affinity for oxygen than adult haemoglobin (you might see some oxygen dissociation curves on this - the normal line should be shifted to the left). It also has a lower affinity for CO2. Therefore the HgF is able to 'grab' oxygen and release CO2 to the maternal HgA (adult).\n\nOnce the HgF has become oxygenated in the placenta it travels through the umbilical cord (which has two separate blood vessels, one from foetus to placenta, and one from placenta to foetus) and into the foetal blood stream. The main difference once inside the foetus itself is that when the blood travels through the heart it goes through a hole between the right atrium and left atrium called the foramen ovale and (mostly) does not pass through the ventricles. This hole mostly closes up just before birth (ie in the last few weeks of pregnancy) but in some babies this process is incomplete, leading hole-in-the-heart syndrome. This hole only occurs because the greater pressure caused by pumping through the ventricles is not needed in the smaller body of the foetus. Apart from that, the rest of the foetal circulatory system is pretty much the same as the adult, just smaller (obviously).\n\nAfter birth, the gene coding for HgF will be switched off and the instead HgA will be produced, allowing for the new demands of respirating autonomously.\n\nI did a quick search to see if there was a useful website to help you. I cite this below. It has some nice diagrams.

Describe in detail the climate throughout kenya?

Kenya is a country about as large as France and situated in East Africa between 5°N and 5°S. It has a very diverse relief with a low coastal plain on the Indian Ocean shore, extensive inland plateaux regions between 915 m/3,000 ft and 1,500 m/5,000 ft and several mountain ranges and isolated peaks such as Mount Kenya, which rises to 5,200 m/17,000 ft and has a permanent snow-cap.\n\nIt is bordered on the north by Ethiopia and Somalia, on the south by Tanzania, and on the west by Uganda and the shores of Lake Victoria.\n\nAlthough Kenya lies athwart the equator, annual rainfall over most of the country is surprisingly low and rather variable from year to year. This is because the intertropical belt of cloud and rain passes rather quickly across Kenya in April and October and because the predominant seasonal winds, the north and south monsoons as they are called in East Africa, have a track parallel to the coast and have already passed over large areas of land before reaching Kenya.\n\nTemperatures over much of Kenya are subtropical or temperate, because of the reduction of temperature with altitude, and are similar to those in California, summer in France or southern Britain rather than those elsewhere in equatorial Africa.\n\nOnly the coastal lowlands experience the constant high temperatures and humidity associated with equatorial latitudes. Even here they are less oppressive than one might expect, because of the regular daytime sea breezes and longer hours of sunshine.\nThe variety of relief and the range of altitude in Kenya produce a considerable number of distinctive local climates and local weather too numerous to be detailed here. The country can be divided broadly into four climatic regions, each with certain features of equatorial climates.\n\nThere is a double rainy season between March and May and between November and December, with two intervening dry seasons. There is a small difference in temperature from month to month through the year. Both these features can be seen in the three tables for Kenya included here. The four climatic regions are:\n\nThe Coastal Region\nThe average annual rainfall is over 1,000 mm/40 in, except in the north where it is rather less. The wettest months are April and May as the intertropical rain-belt moves north. The second rainy season in October and November, sometimes called the 'little rains' in Kenya, is less conspicuous. Some rain, often in the form of night or early morning showers, occurs in all months.\n\nTemperatures remain quite high around the year as does humidity; but the weather is less oppressive than might be thought because of the regular and strong onshore winds in the daytime and the greater number of sunshine hours which average seven to eight a day in all months. The weather, however, can feel sultry, particularly at night.\nThe Northern Frontier Districts and the Lower Inland Plateau\nMuch of this region has a very low annual rainfall for an equatorial region. Rainfall is generally below 500 mm/20 in and in the far north is often below 250 mm/10 in.\n\nIn the lower districts temperatures are high round the year, there is much sunshine, and the region is a typical hot desert like the adjoining southern parts of Somalia and Ethiopia. Humidity is low and, apart from occasional excessive heat, it is a healthy climate.\n\nThe Kenya Highlands\nMost of this region lies between 1,220 m/4,000 ft and 2,150 m/7,000 ft and occupies the centre and west of the country on either side of the eastern Rift valley, extending to the Ugandan border. It is the most densely populated part of the country and contains the most productive agricultural land.\n\nThere is a double rainy season but rainfall is moderate and only exceeds 1,250 mm/50 in a year on the higher parts. Over most of the region the sunniest time of the year is from December to March. The cloudiest period is from June to September when there is much drizzle but little heavy rain. This period is often called &#

What all should I say about irrational numbers for a Calculus presentation?

I am assuming you are an early undergraduate or late highschooler.\n\nI would recommend you read the first 30 pages of Maxwell Rosenlicht's Introduction to Analysis (but see below for alternatives).  The book is written with advanced undergraduates in mind, but is a lot more excessible then Analysis books by Rudin, Apostle, or Royden.  Best of all, it is only $15 dollars.  \n\nThe book assumes the existence of the real number line rather than going through the tedious construction and delves straight into the axioms (pp. 15-30).  These will teach you a lot of interesting information about the properties of irrational numbers.  In particular, you want to talk about the least upper bound property and the theorems thereof.  You can build your presentation to the following lemma: An irrational (or real) number may be approximated as closely as we wish by a rational number.\n\nThe book is a great keep if you are interested in an intro to more advance material but if you don't have the time (or don't want to spend the money) I would suggest you look at the topics below in Wikipedia, Math World or another internet source:\n\nRational Number\nIrrational Number\nReal Number \nSupremum (or Least Upper Bound)\nInfemum (or Greatest Lower Bound)

If you're traveling at the speed of light and you turn your  headlights on, what happens?

In this imaginary situation, you will still see your headlights working the same way as they normally do. Without going into tricky mathematics, just recall the fundamental postulate of special relativity: \nThe speed of light is CONSTANT in all inertial frames of references (considering the same medium). \nSo, the speed of light will still be the same in the frame of reference attached to your vehical, which is an inertial frame, because it is moving with the (uniform) speed of light!

can mind over matter be the cure all to end all?

If you think about it, mind over matter includes herbs, massage, medicine, prescriptions, surgery.\nI know what you mean though and I don't think it's possible right now.  I think the more we evolve, the more we learn about the untapped resources of the human brain, perhaps so.\nHow great would it be if you could just direct all the curative, regenerative cells in your body to a specific mission.  \nRemember, people can already alter they're natural body functions just by thinking about it.  You can slow your heart rate, your breathing rate.  You can make yourself have dreams that you want and don't forget you can hold off on the bathroom when needed.  I don't think it's such a far leap to think of mind over matter as a cure all.


Since I'm just starting out golfing, what type of golf club should I buy to just practice swinging in my yard?

You should buy a training aid to start with. The Medicus jointed club, the Momentus whieghted club, or any swing trainer that points out swing flaws and comes with some sort of instructional DVD is the best way to start. In conjunction, if you can only afford one club and not a whole set I would recommend a 5 wood.\n\ngood luck!

JJ Redick. First they both put up insane numbers but look at where the players play. JJ plays against some of the great players in NCAA basketball while Morrison plays against some of the worst competation in NCAA. Try putting Morrison on a team that plays a strenght of schedule like Duke. Then you have to look at how the players score. Morrison get most of his points of designated play specialized for him, such as a pick in roll play that gives morrison 3 options. In the NBA the team isnt going to revlove around Morrison and NBA teams have better defenders, coaches and defencive schemes that wont let Adam get his easy buckets. JJ on the other hand creates his own shoots off the dribble. JJ also has very long range which will help him adjust to the NBA's 3 point arc. The only concern I have with JJ is how he plays under pressure. This year we saw him break down at important times even though he does come in the clutch most of the time. I will give Morrison the edge on clutch and defence. If Morrison finds ways to score off the dribble better than he will become the better player but as of now JJ has the edge.


What size of steam boiler is suitable for 2.5MW turbo alternator. What are the inlet & outle pressures & temp?

first we must know turbine's inlet pressure and temperature (depend on design ) , mass flow of steam to turbine (for 2,5 MW)  and effiency of turbine (for calculate of exhaust conditions )\n\nexample : 100 MW double exhaust steam turbine need to 160 ton steam at 500 C and 50 bar for high pressure   and 40 ton steam at 200 C and 5 bar for low pressure. \n\nthere are many kind of boiler . if you dont know some require value then you can not calculate boiler pressure , temperarture and  stages (eco , eva , superheater) .\n\ni can say only about capacity of boiler  ; \n\ni f we accept turbine effiency = 70 % \nthen amount of approximately steam power = 2,5 . 100 / 70 = 3,571 MW \nand \nİf we accept boiler effiency = 85 % then real capacity of   \nboiler = 4,2 MW \nthis value near capacity of boiler. \n\nboiler inlet condition = 1 bar 50 C (i accept) \nenthalpy of inlet water = (from compressed water tables) = 200 kj/kg \nmass of flow = 5 ton/hour (i accept) = 5000 kg/hour = 5000/3600 kg/sn= 1,39 kg/sc.\n\n3,571 MW = 3571 kw = 1,39 . (hç-200) \n\nhç= outlet enthalpy of boiler \n\nhç = 2769 kj/kg (this value must stay at superheated region) \nwe must look to superheated region at thermodynamic tables. \nand we can find best outlet conditions for 2769 Kj/kg. and temperature can not be high than 500 C for 2769 kj/kg. \nwe must take care to pipe line length because some losses cause to change superheated steam to saturated steam or near conditions. \nif superheated steam early change conditions then blades of turbine can be damaged. at the end of turbine must be saturated steam or little bit big superheated steam for protection of blades. \nfinally \n4 bar , 160 C conditions enough for 2769 kj/kg.\n\n\nsummary : \nboiler inlet 1 bar 50 C \nboile r outlet 4 bar , 160 C \nmass of flow = 5 ton / hour \n\nalso next step , calculate of boiler's economizer , evaporatör , superheater , main steam line pipe dia. , pumps (circulating and feed water) , drums , recirculation lines , condenser , auxilary cooling water system (for cooling of condenser) , gland steam line , regulating system , control syst. , vacuum sys. (if necessary for condenser) , water treatment sys. , chemical dosing points ,  etc. etc. etc.\n\nturbine inlet conditions = 4 bar , 160 C 2769 kj/kg\n\nnet power = 2,5 mw = 2500 kw \n\n2500 = 1,39.(2769-hs) \nhs = 970 kj/kg (enthalpy of at the end of turbine ) \n\nthis entalphy shown turbine outlet conditions \n\n0,5 bar 85,4 C or 0,2 bar 85 C (vacuum)\n\nwater must be cooled up to 50 C (inlet of boiler)

what is the difference between the overall GPA and the major GPA of an undergraduate student?

Your overall GPA is just that, the grade point average.  Every grade you receive is given a point value, which are averaged to get your GPA.\n\nYour major GPA applies to only courses in your major, or chosen field of study, but is otherwise computed the same way.\n\nIf you are majoring in psyc, and have\nPSYC100 3.5\nPSYC101 4.0\nMATH100 1.5\n\nYour major GPA would be the average of your psyc marks, or (3.5 + 4)/2 = 3.75.\nYour overall GPA would be the average of all your marks, or (3.5 + 4.0 + 1.5)/3 = 3.0.

In the space shuttle, which fuel goes in the tank above the intertank in the E.T.?

The liquid oxygen goes in the smaller, top tank inside the external tank.  To provide better stability in rockets, one should always put the densest (and heaviest) fuel at the top.\n\nThe propellant mixture in each SRB motor consists of an ammonium perchlorate (oxidizer, 69.6 % by weight), aluminum (fuel, 16 %), iron oxide (a catalyst, 0.4 %), a polymer (such as PBAN or HTPB - a binder that holds the mixture together, 12.04 %), and an epoxy curing agent (1.96 %).

How do I make this Blondie meanie in my school stop making me feel bad.?

don't let her bother you. what grade are you in? eventually everybody matures, and for those that don't, the rest of the kids will realize what a bitc* she is. Just ignore her completely, fly under her radar, but don't do anything that will make her feel like she's controlling you. \n\nJust take it with a grain of salt. Eventually she'll get her commuppins, and you'll be all the better for it. \n\nThis is probably the answer you don't want to hear because it's not easy to do, but the harder things are the more they're worth doing. Good luck.

How  do you pitch really fast in softball?

You have to have a strong arm and most of it really is a gift.\nYou either have a srong arm or you don't.\n\nNot everyone with a strong arm is a good pitcher for various reasons.\n\nLifting weights will help give you a stronger arm but you don't want to be lifting real heavy weights and make your muscles too tight.\n\nIf you do have a strong arm, then you need to learn different types of pitches and how to throw them.\n\nPractice a lot with a catcher and play as much ball as possible.\nIt would be good to practice with a good softball pitcher who could show you the proper technique.\n\nIf you have the talent it will start to show the more you play.\nIf you don't have the arm or are not a real good pitcher you still could be a very good ballplayer and have a lot of fun playing another position on a team.

Can anyone tell me what happened on Lost last night (4/12)?

Ok: Rose told Bernard that the faith healer didnt heal her in Australia but once she got to the island she was healed. Bernard had been trying to build a giant sos sign and couldnt understand why Rose was so unsupportive. Once he realized that she couldnt leave the island because the cancer would come back he told her that they would stay on the island together. They also did a flashback of how they met and how he proposed.\n\nJack decided to go to the 'line' and tell the Others that he wanted to trade Henry for Walt. Henry said the Others would never return Walt. The cop chick said he shouldnt go alone and also gave Jack her gun. Jack went to Kate who was with Sawyer and invited her to come. Sawyer thought jack was going to ask him to go because he wanted a gun. Jack said no he had a gun and wanted kate not sawyer. sawyer was a bit pissed. so off went jack and kate into the jungle.\n\nwhile in the jungle kate saw a doll and went to pick it up while jack was shouting not to. jack ran to 'save' her, as she picked up the doll they both got caught in a net trap in the tress. lots of bumping and grinding and sexual tension ensued...kate tried to shot the rope to free them and missed (Jack: Well at least they know where we are now.) Jack then managed to hit the rope and they fell to the ground (Insert heaving breaths while on top of each other here lol) They head off to the clearing...\n\nBernard while trying to make the sign saw charlie and the black guy clearing a spot and gathering logs. bernard asked for their help and they said they were busy which ticked him off and he said if you arent going to help cant i have the logs and they said no they needed them. when he asked for what they said they were building a church. Bernard's response..."I liked it when you walked around not saying anything hitting people with your big stick" Charlie: "I like you  just the way you are."\nHurley turned down food..still on his diet.\nMeanwhile in the hatch: Locke is still working on his map of the other hatches...he is pissed because he doesnt know if Henry hit the button or not. Because of no gun (it is with jack and kate) cop girl wont let locke open the door...so he goes and bangs on the door demanding to know if he hit the button or not..from behind the door the long silent and not eating henry gives an evil little grin. locke goes to the beach to "Stretch my legs." and ends up sitting with Rose for a bit, touchy feelie words ensue and locke is his twistedly happy self again and seems to be okay with the whole did he or didnt he hit the button thing and sets back to work on the hatch map again...\n\nmeanwhile in the jungle...\nthey are heading to the clearing and jack asks about something kate said while they were in the trap, that is wasnt good enough to be an Others trap and how did she know, it was then that she told jack about the other hatch, costumes etc..jack asked why she hadnt told him and when she planned to her reply "When you let me join the club again".

My Problem Is In ( Programming > Visual Basic 6.00 > API Technology > InternetReadFile Function On API )

My first instinct is that you should upgrade as the newer versions of Microsoft development environments have much better support for this stuff.\n\nBut, barring that, I'd just have to take a few guesses.  \n\nVB 6.0 was a bit touchy about how it handled APIs.  You may need to look into the variable types you're passing into the API call and its declaration - make sure you're using a current API declaration for VB 6.0 and that you have SP 6.0 installed.\n\nInternetReadFile is designed to use a buffer to pull chunks of the response back and accumulate them.  If you're trying to pull back a huge file in a single read, you may come across all kinds of limitations.   It's probably better to write something more scalable like the example below.   Pardon the formatting mess caused by this answers field.\n\n\n\nDim hInternetSession       As Long\nDim hUrlFile               As Long\nDim sReadBuffer            As String * 4096     ' Grab 4k at a time\nDim sBuffer                As String\nDim lNumberOfBytesRead     As Long\nDim bDoLoop                As Boolean\nDim sURL                   As String\n\nhInternetSession = InternetOpen("Test", _\n    INTERNET_OPEN_TYPE_PRECONFIG, vbNullString, vbNullString, 0)\n\nsURL = txtURL\nhUrlFile = InternetOpenUrl(hInternetSession, _\n    sURL, vbNullString, 0, INTERNET_FLAG_RELOAD, 0)\n\nbDoLoop = True\nWhile bDoLoop\n    sReadBuffer = scBlankStr\n    bDoLoop = InternetReadFile(hUrlFile, sReadBuffer, _\n                Len(sReadBuffer), lNumberOfBytesRead)\n    sBuffer = sBuffer & Left$(sReadBuffer, lNumberOfBytesRead)\n    If Not CBool(lNumberOfBytesRead) Then bDoLoop = False\nWend\nInternetCloseHandle (hUrlFile)\nInternetCloseHandle (hInternetSession)


5 bags of apples cost 3.00 at the same rate what would be the cost of 7 pounds of apples?

if a 5 pound bag of apples cost $3.00 they would be, .60 per pound 3.00 divided by 5 = .60  so to find out how much 7 pounds would cost multiply .60 x 7 = $4.20  if you are having difficulty with your math homework maybe you should ask your teacher for someone who could tutor you.  see, you may be taking a short cut by getting the answers to your math homework on here, but yahoo answers will not be sitting next to you while you are taking a test, and if you were my child i would rather you ask for help in learning how to do the problems and pass your tests than to just get your answers off the Internet for your homework, so now that i have explained how to get the answer to your math question... answer this one, at the same rate as above how much would you pay for 4 pounds of apples and how much would you pay for 9 pounds of apples.  e-mail me your answers. Good luck in your learning

What three tubular structures empty into the upper small intestine and the fluids they produce?

The gastric glands are of three kinds: (a) pyloric, (b) cardiac, and (c) fundus or oxyntic glands\n\n HCl used to break up large food items into smaller pieces by dissolving intercellular substances\n\n            also serves as immunological barrier and to activate gastric enzymes (e.g., pepsinogen to pepsin)\n\n      enzymatic digestion - enzymes used to cleave specific molecules\n\n            enzymes produced by salivary glands, stomach, small intestine and pancreas \n\n      fermentation – occurs in colon and distal ileum\n\n            use of symbiotic microorganisms (bacteria and protozoans) which give off by-products useful to the host (e.g., vitamin K)

"Cursing or abusing officers", how can I fight the charge?

In which state do you live? Did they have any other reason to pull you over?\nThere are two issues here. First, you do have certain free speech rights; could the cops have charged you if you had yelled something offensive to another person who was not a cop? I would find it hard to believe that your state's laws would differentiate between yelling at any person, which could rise to the level of assaultive behavior, and yelling at a cop.\nSecond, supreme court jurisprudence has held that police officers should be held to a higher standard when it comes to tolerance of offensive language, due to the nature of their job. The statute in your state seems to belie that jurisprudence. You need a good civil rights lawyer who will work to show that the statute is unconstitutional.


If you were the COWBOYS.. Trade or keep T.O?

Given what they paid him upfront, it'd be silly to trade him, as they would most likely lose out on the deal.  If the Cowboys didn't REALLY want him, they'd never have signed him and cut Keyshawn loose in the first place.


->  A form of badminton was played in ancient Greece and Egypt. But it wasn't called badminton then. They had battledore kind of bat, with no nets.. and all inside a single court trying not to let the object fall down - This was not called as badminton\n\n-> Then in China(or Japan I am not sure about this) played with legs not letting the feather Bird (looked like nowadays-bird) - This even was not as badminton\n\n-> Then in India (Pune City) the Britishers tied nets for the first time and called it as Poona (named after the city)\n\n-> British Army officers stationed in India in the 1860s took the game back to England. In 1873, it was played at a party given by the Duke of Beaufort at his Gloucestershire estate, which was called Badminton. So it came to be called "the Badminton game."

Wasnt Jesus,  Moses,  Abraham, Noah, Of Arabic decent? (i am muslim and we believe in every prophet?

"The Quran was written about 400 AD by Mohammed. Christians consider the Quran to be a book (like a novel) written by a false prophet."--From  mesqlouise2u\n\nGet your facts right before you accuse, the Qur'an was not written by Muhammad, it came from God (Allah). We don't reduce Jesus' status, we consider him and the Virgin Mary as some of the highest in our regards. We believe that Virgin Mary was one of the most honourable women there was, where we believe she is promised heaven, one of the first to be placed with such a high honour. And I find it also insulting that it stated "..the Quran reduces Jesus to merely a prophet," 1. Have you read the Qur'an? and 2. Prophethood is not something to be said as "merely" we believe Jesus is richeous, yet we do not believe he is the son of god, we believe god is one. Yet that doesn't mean we reduce his honour, we respect him, honour him, and love him, as we do for all the prophets, from Adam to Muhammad.

is it dangerous to be exposed to radio frequency?

yes.\ndo you smoke, if so don't worry about the radio frequency.\n\nradio means energy is radiated\nyou have an increased risk of leukeamia\n\nbut the reality is that we are all exposed to large amounts of radio energy, and I mean LARGE.\n\npersonally, if i were you i would be more worried about the glue. the carcinogens that come out of that stuff... man. Have you read the material data safety sheets (M.S.D.S.) on the glue that you use? do a search on the net for the MSDS for the glues and you may not be so concerned about the radiation.

If you wear glasses, not contacts and have asthma can you still be a police officer?

Depends on how bad your vision and asthma is. As far as the vision goes, if you cant wear contacts, I'd recommend getting Lasik or RK surgery. Keep in mind though, if you DO get one of these surgeries done, most departments wont hire you until after you have had the surgery for a year. That shouldnt be a problem though, because most hiring processes take longer than that anyway.\n\nI cant help you with the asthma. You know your own limitations. I can tell you, as a former cop, and current federal agent, I wouldnt want a partner who was going to drop 100 yards into a foot pursuit. Bad officer safety issue. No offense. Have you considered other aspects of law enforcement that dont involve high physical activity?

how can i get financial support for my son's nursing education?

You're too late to do any applications for funding outside the school your son will be attending. But the school itself should have several options.\n\nYour local library will be your greatest resourse. Just ask the librarian.\n\nAlso, local grants and foundations support educational opportunities. Go to one of the non-profit organizations in your town, and ask them who the money-people are in the area. The non-profits always know where the money is.\n\nIf all funding efforts fail, low-interest loans are available.

I've heard from married men that women are attracted to men with wedding rings is this true?

in some cases, yes. There are all types of people out there and some women love the "challenge". I know I got a lot of attention when I got married. Maybe some of the women felt safer talking to a married guy or they would want to be the "other lady" who gets the side attention without the strings; there's been both!! So...I guess it all depends on the guy and what he does in that type of situation.

What do you do when someone is picking on you for 3Years?

I know what it's like. Always being picked at, Laughed at, and even shoved out. But I learn from them. I know it sounds crazy but it's true. anywayz, my advice to you is first you need to tell someone about it. whether it be your teacher or your parents. if the bullying doesn't stop, take matters into your own hands. i'm not saying to fight the guy (although that is an option for a much, much later use) but to sorta use your head to out smart him. If he still continues, take a stand and MAKE the school move him to another class and to keep him away from you or else you sue.\nI'm pretty sure that you'll won't have to go that far but just try and find out what's his problem and try and help him. Hey who knows maybe you'll actually become friends.\n       Good luck ;)

Girls only....Is it safer/healthier to wipe it or pat it?

I wipe, I have been doing that for years. Makes no difference.


Both could be entirely possible in theory. However the only problem comes in how to accellerate to above the speed of light, which according to Einstein is necessary to travel in time. Ont theory is to get to the highest speed possible and slingshot in a planet or stars gravitational rotation and use that to accelerate faster while using a rotational acceleration thereby accelerating to the poroper speed for it. That's sound as well, but it's hard to get funding for stuff like that and it's dangerous, because much like Back to the future and Star Trek, only nuclear fuel would provide the power necessary without adding too much weight to the vessel, and will not deplete for the radiation off a nuclear reation last for several thousand year depending on the element used.

It appears that Bush is down and the standing 8 count has begun, will he be allowed to continue?

I don't think it will be the end quite yet. With Republican control, there will have to be unrefutable evidence of the "name your issue" that has crossed the Bush Administration's path to get them to actually do something about it. There is mounting evidence against him in several areas, but not black and white outstanding evidence; at least not good enough for them as of yet. It is only a matter of time, but if the Democrats wrestle control in November, the risk of this happening will increase; however, they will have to be careful and do that only with credence, or they will be accused of just wanting to get back at Bush. When that day happens, I will be ecstatic.

how many people know women who have had an abortion. and whats the most abortions they had 1 2 3 4 or more?

My sister had to have one.  She had an iud at the time and the baby was growing in the iud.  There was no way the baby would have survived, and we could have lost her.\nShe still feels guilty about it.\nAnother sister tried 3 times to abort the same baby, but nothing happened.\nI don't know what the limit is, but I've heard that the more abortions a person has, the less likely they are to carry a baby full term.\nI lost two babies myself, and the doctors didn't think I would carry my son long enough to give him a chance.  Thank God he arrived at 8 pounds 1 ounce and 21 inches long.

what if youre still in love with your ex ?

If you are not in Love with this man, or if you care less for your self, then you should go your way, or stay taking a chance on ending your life.  Enjoy the single life.  A man who Cheats against you is like having your enemy next to you.  Cheating is bad and it threatens your life.  There are too many things that can happen when one partner cheats against the other.  Sorry is not the issue. Do he/she understand the nature of trust, honesty and caring.  Not just to say, yes, I can now be trusted.  No, they must understand that playing with your life is no joke.  Good luck.......


malicious wounding used to punish enemies, or as a drastic form of torture. They injure the victim in the knee, especially by shooting. This generally cripples the person for life. The term knee-capping is often used as a metaphor to label political criticism as an "attack".\n\nit is very very very painful.


It is the official means of comparing how good your golf game is against other players using a uniform standard called "par".  Your score over several rounds is tabulated and compared to the standard.  For each and every stroke you incur above the standard, your handicap goes up one.  For instance, if on a par 72 golf course, your average  score is 81 you would have a  handicap of 9.  This allows you to compete with players of different abilities on a more even basis.  If the 9 handicap player was playing a 5 handicap player, and the final scores over 18 holes was 80 vs. 77.  The player with the score of 80 would have beaten the player with the score of 77.  Even though the 80 was the higher score, that player gets a 4 stroke "handicap", in theory making the two players with different abilities, equal golfers.


How much tax do I have to pay for buying hair products on the net from US?

I would say you will be only required to pay GST on it at 7% and no US sales tax should be imposed on it.


There is nothing wrong with it.\nLet's remember that many couples--gay AND straight, have children with the help of modern medical practices. \nAlso, there are many committed hetero couples that never produce children.  Being in a committed relationship does not require the creation of offspring. \nLet's also remember that it takes more than having sex to have a good relationship. There are very many healthy, functioning relationships between same sex people.  The belief that gay relationships are all about sex is ignorant.\n\nI would also like to add what should be obvious, but it seems no one talks about it.  Look at all the children who have been dumped, kidnapped, abused, neglected or killed by their parent(s).  Clearly, some people should NOT be having babies.  So, I would argue, it's not wise for every hetero person on earth to have children.


Can't us Americans,Mexicans and etc's  just all get along? And all live happy ever after?

The immigration issue confronting the U.S. right now has nothing to do with Americans getting along with Mexicans.  The issue is wether or not to allow illegal immigrants to sstay in the U.S. and how we should defend our borders against illegals.


what is the difference between college and university?

People attend a college or university to continue their education after high school. This prepares them for work. It also provides them with a greater understanding of the world and its past. And it helps them value the arts and sciences. \n\nStudents usually attend a college for four years and gain a bachelor’s degree. Colleges generally do not support research or offer graduate degrees. Universities usually are much larger than colleges. Universities carry out research. And they offer several kinds of degrees in many areas of study. \n\nThey offer bachelor’s degrees after four years of study. Universities also offer graduate degrees that require additional years of study, such as master’s degrees and doctoral degrees. Modern universities developed from those of the Middle Ages. They took their name from the Latin word “universitas.” It meant a group of people organized for one purpose. \n\nThe first European colleges were groups of students who came together because of the same interests. In England, colleges were formed to provide them with living places. Usually each group was studying the same thing, so the word “college” came to mean one area of study. \n\nMost American colleges today teach an area of study called liberal arts. The liberal arts were subjects first developed and taught in ancient Greece. They trained a person’s mind. They were considered different from subjects that were useful in life. \n\nThe word “college” also means a part of a university that teaches one area of study. That is because the first American universities divided their studies into many areas and called each one a college. An example would be “Teachers College” of Columbia University in New York City. It is the part of Columbia University that prepares people to be teachers. The university includes many other colleges too, like those that teach medicine and law.


Do you think that there is a Macedonian nation and language or they are part of Bulgarian language and nation?

Blahblah has answered you very well and I do think that is an answer from an intelligent person that knows quite a few things. However I do feel I have to add and correct some things in the answer that blahblah gave. \n\nThe people that call them selves Macedonians today were not alive 200 years ago :) but even then even though a Macedonian state did not exist and even though the language was still not codified there were people that definitely felt Macedonian and worked on the “Macedonian cause” (look into the collected documents of the UK diplomacy regarding Macedonia).\n Two questions that came to my mind as I read blahblah’s answer were: “Does he know what a dialect is?” and “Just how much does he know of Bulgarian or Macedonian language?”   \nThe grammar of both languages has distinct features both morphological and syntactic. While, the lexis of Bulgarian contains a large number of Russian borrowings infused through great Russian influence Macedonian does not have what you called Serbian loan words because in most cases those are Old Church Slavonic words (A language which is dead now but served as the origin for all three languages). \n\nSo to answer the question, there is a Macedonian nation with quite a distinct language.


My 14th year old daughter only has male friends, should I be concerned?

In school at that age.. I did'nt have many girl friends.. sometimes I think girls find it easier to have guy friends.. because a male friend at that age is less likely to be judgemental. I wouldnt worry at all.


if u love someone and he/she got married 2 other person wht u will do?

i guess you better let go that person, even though you love him/her because he/she is already married and from that fact, you can't do anything about it. i guess that person is already happy with his/her married life life and i think it's just right not to spoil such relationship. Love really hurts, especially in your case (or in your question) but the best thing to do is be happy for that person and wish him/her the best. Move on and after a while you also find the one that is really meant for you or the one that will give back your love. That would be nicer than being "the-would-be-third-party" right?


Who is associated with coming up with "back-of-envelope calculation?"?

The phrase is derived from the practice of quickly jotting down calculations on the piece of paper nearest to hand, which in pre-email days often meant the back of an envelope. Another possible origin for the phrase is a widespread myth that Abraham Lincoln wrote the Gettysburg address on the back of an envelope while on the train to Gettysburg.\n\nThe physicist refered to by your professor is Feynman.


It would have been 1 pence.\nJamestown is the first English settlement in the United States and the settlement was in 1607, Shakespeare died in 1616.\n\nThere were no dollars until after the revolution in 1776. Most of the money was English and a little Spanish. (Remember pieces of 8, they could be broken into 8 pieces.)\n\nHope this helps.

what is the arnold de chiari syndrom type I ?

A Chiari type I syndrome means that the very lowest part of the brain, the "tonsils" of the cerebellum, are sitting lower than normal. (These have nothing to do with the tonsils in your throat.)\n\nThe cerebellum, or "little brain", is the part at the back of the brain that controls balance and coordination. Normally, the cerebellar tonsils sit just at the base of the skull, above the hole in the base of the skull through which the spinal cord goes. (The hole is called the foramen magnum.) In Chiari type I, the tonsils are hanging down through the foramen magnum. They can be just a few millimeters down, or all the way down to the level of the 2nd vertebra in your neck (rarely even lower).\n\nHaving a Chiari I is not necessarily a problem. If there's enough space in the foramen magnum for both the spinal cord and upper brainstem (the part of the brain that feeds into the spinal cord, which controls a lot of important things like breathing, heart rate, and the lower cranial nerves that go to things like swallowing and eye movements), then no problem.\n\nHowever, if there's not much space, having the tonsils wedged in the foramen magnum can cause pressure on the brainstem and spinal cord, giving you problems with double vision, funny eye movements, poor balance, or swallowing problems. It can also impair the normal flow of fluid around the brain and spine, causing headaches.\n\nIf a Chiari malformation is symptomatic, surgeons can operate to remove some of the bone at the back of the skull, to make more room for the tonsils. They don't take any brain out, just relieve the pressure.\n\nHowever, in many cases, a Chiari is discovered because someone has a scan for some other reason (e.g., they had a minor head injury) and it is not producing any symptoms. This kind of "incidental" finding doesn't need treatment and you could well go the rest of your life without any surgery. It shouldn't limit your activity in any way, except that chiropractic neck manipulation is probably not a good idea.\n\nThe sites below have some excellent information, but can also be a bit scary. Rest assured, I've seen many people with Chiari type I who don't need surgery. (I'm a neurosurgeon.)\n\nOf note, Arnold was a pupil of Chiari and had his name attached to the syndrome for years, but it's now generally felt he doesn't deserve credit and a lot of surgeons just call it Chiari, not Arnold-Chiari, though you will still find info under either name.

Is it true having a foreskin makes the guy more sensitive than being cut?

Why are you asking this question? in some instances YES, the skin does make it more sensitive cuz A) the GLANS AKA Penis head is always covered, so when in contact with something it sure is sensitive. B) there is a frenulum which in itself I would say is 90% of all feeling cuz that spot there is whats getting rubbed against when your having sex. well I deem it as the main contact area. cut makes might have some of it left thus being sensitive as well. Some peeps that are uncut and phimosed might experience more pain than pleasure. Some have the frenulum glued on to the penis head and has not de-attached itself making it impossible to retract. Again pain!.\n\nSo in all honesty it depends on the person there is no right or wrong answer except for the moron who was talking about the 50's and pancakes???. I think that person has alzheimers or something.


how can i make ejaculation multiple times?

is it bad for the skin to take too many showers?

No water will not dry out your skin. Hot water will cause problems if you have V.veins but it is the soap you use that matters. I take a shower or bath 1-2 times per day depending on my work that day and use a shower gel from Philosophy and a good moisturizer everyday. Try to take warm bathes instead of hot ones. The Chlorine in pools is bad for your skin also. If you see flaky skin you should use a scrub to remove the dead skin. My skin gets dry in the winter due to the low humidity but in the summer I take more showers and it is not dry.

does anyone on here have panic attacks and how do you deal with them?

I've had panic attacks in the past...thankfully not recently. I guess you should just focus on becoming less stressed in general, through whatever method works for you. I've tried hypnosis, anxiety medication, meditation, etc. I wouldn't recommend medication because it's usually addictive and withdrawal symptoms are really bad. Meditating and hypnosis were the most useful tools for me. And don't be afraid to seek the support of others. More people than you think suffer from panic attacks.

For about a f5 year period Faulk was the most deadly player in football. He could run inside & outside. He was aswome catching the ball on screens and even lining up as a wideout. Very similar to Tomlinson.\n\nCurtis Martin is mister durable. Strait ahead runner. Been very good for along time. Fair as a receiver.\n\nI would have to say that Faulk has hall of fame numbers for 5 years with the Rams but nothing with the Colts. Martin was good with NE and the jets every year.\n\n\nMARTIN is my vote!!!

Have any of you seen the Aztlan video on the immigration watchdog.com?

I found this and thought it was worth sharing.\n\nA retired border patrol agent shows some common sense. \n\nThis letter sent to Tennessee Senator Bill Frist from a retired border patrol agent, and it has more common sense than all the bull being spewed from the Senate, with the exception of a few sensible representatives. \n\nDear Senator Frist: \n\nThere is a huge amount of propaganda and myths circulating about illegal aliens, particularly illegal Mexican, Salvadorian, Guatemalan and Honduran \naliens. \n#1. Illegal aliens generally do NOT want U.S. citizenship. Americans are very vain thinking that everybody in the world wants to be a U.S. citizen. Mexicans, and other nationalities want to remain citizens of their home \ncountries while obtaining the benefits offered by the United States such as employment, medical care, in-state tuition, government subsidized housing and free education for their offspring. Their main attraction is employment \nand their loyalty usually remains at home. They want benefits earned and subsidized by middle class Americans. What illegal aliens want are benefits of American residence without paying the price. \n\n#2. There are no jobs that Americans won't do. Illegal aliens are doing jobs that Americans can't take and still support their families. Illegal aliens take low wage jobs, live dozens in a single residence home, share expenses \nand send money to their home country. There are no jobs that Americans won't do for a decent wage. \n\n#3. Every person who illegally entered this nation left a home. They are NOT homeless and they are NOT Americans. Some left jobs in their home countries. They come to send money to their real home as evidenced by the more than 20 \nbillion dollars sent out of the country each year by illegal aliens. These illegal aliens knowingly and willfully entered this nation in violation of the law and therefore assumed the risk of detection and deportation. Those who brought their alien children assumed the responsibility and risk on behalf of their children. \n\n#4. Illegal aliens are NOT critical to the economy. Illegal aliens constitute less than 5% of the workforce. However, they reduce wages and benefits for lawful U.S. residents. \n\n#5. This is NOT an immigrant nation. There are 280 million native born Americans. While it is true that this nation was settled and founded by immigrants (legal immigrants), it is also true that there is not a nation on this planet that was not settled by immigrants at one time or another. \n\n#6. The United States is welcome to legal immigrants. Illegal aliens are not immigrants by definition. The U.S. accepts more lawful immigrants every year than the rest of the world combined. \n\n#7. There is no such thing as the "Hispanic vote". Hispanics are white, brown, black and every shade in between. Hispanics are Republicans, Democrats, Anarchists, Communists, Marxists and Independents. The so-called "Hispanic vote" is a myth. Pandering to illegal aliens to get the Hispanic vote is a dead end. \n\n#8. Mexico is NOT a friend of the United States. Since 1848 Mexicans have resented the United States. During World War I Mexico allowed German Spies to operate freely in Mexico to spy on the U.S. During World War II. Mexico allowed the Axis powers to spy on the U.S. from Mexico. During the Cold War Mexico allowed spies hostile to the U.S. to operate freely. The attack on the Twin Towers in 2001 was cheered and applauded all across Mexico. Today Mexican school children are taught that the U.S. stole California, Arizona, New Mexico and Texas. If you don't believe it, check out some Mexican textbooks written for their schoolchildren. \n\n#9. Although some illegal aliens enter this country for a better life, there are 6 billion people on this planet. At least 1 billion of those live on less than one dollar a day. If wanting a better life is a valid excuse to \nbreak the law and sneak into America, then let's al

Why people of saudia Arab dress themselves in white dress especialy "HAJI"?

this is mostly seen in HAJI people, they all wear same colour\n     one reason is this ISLAM sees all persons standing at same level without any  distinction of cast, richness etc so wearing same dress brings all MUSLIMS at one level at the occasion of HAJJ ,as well as white colour is concerned it symbolises peace and nobility .\n secondly ARAB is a region having extreamly warm temperature conditions ... and WHITE is a colour that reflects all wavelengths of light and gives a COOL feeling to arab people ..same was done usually by HOLY PROPHET folowers  ( PBUH) so it is also taken as SUNAT in muslims.

How did nationalism, Imperialism, and militarism help set stage for world war 1?

Nationalism....everyone had a heightend sense of pride in their own nation. It would be easier to bring up soliders for the "great war" since everyone believed their nation to be best and worth fighting for. Also like nations got into alliances and often these alliances got quite tangled and would eventually be seenas probably the one of the main causes for the war. Imperalism....the powers that be in Europe were all competing on the international level for resources, markets, and prestige. The highly hostile and competitive atmosphere because of conflicting interests helped add to a war climate. Militarism... since most of the main powers needed a strong military to be able to exert their imperial dominance, strong militaries were popular during the period. As one nation built up their arms, the others would follow suit in order to avoid the balance of power from tipping to far one way. Each of these causes helped build a foundation for war which was sparked because of the archdukes assination.

what is the worst possible way you would insult someone who hurt u without swearing at them?

It depends on the relationship I have with the person.  If they are family, I just get nasty with them and don't pull any punches.  (and I can strip someone with my tongue very easily)  If they are an acquaintance, I just ignore them.  In my situation, this is the worst possible insult they can receive as most folks around me like being in my company.  I let the person see me looking great, laughing (could be about them or not) and generally having a great time.  I'm like you, I prefer not to swear, as it shows poor manners, so sometimes my revenge is more a mental discipline then a verbal one.

Get some lavender oil from your herbal/health food store.  It will stop the itching and it will heal it also.  It is not expensive plus it smells good.  If it looks infected, has red streaks coming from it soak it echinacea tea.  It is a blood purifier and will prevent blood poisoning. You didn't say what part of the body she got bit.  If she has lumps in the armpits or groin that could be an indication of blood poisoning.  If so, get her to a doctor quick.

Did the regime of Franco had important positive aspects from the point of view the Spanish population?

Of course.  Let me give you a little history which should clear up the notion of a good dictatorship:\n\nThe overriding need to strengthen the regime determined foreign policy in the first phase of Franco's rule. Weakened by the devastation of civil war, the country could not afford to become involved in a protracted European conflict. Although Franco was deeply indebted to Germany and to Italy for their decisive contribution to his victory over the Republicans, he declared Spain's neutrality in the opening days of World War II. His sympathies, nevertheless, were openly with the Axis powers; he had, in fact, already joined the Anti-Comintern Pact and had signed a secret treaty of friendship with Germany in March 1939. There was genuine enthusiasm for the fascist cause among important elements of the Franco regime, especially the Falange. \n\nSpain altered its policy of neutrality following the lightning success of Germany's 1940 spring offensive. The German armies appeared invincible, and Franco was eager to assure Spain a voice in the postwar settlement. In June 1940, The Spanish government adopted a policy of nonbelligerency, which permitted German submarines to be provisioned in Spanish ports and German airplanes to use Spanish landing strips. This stance was widely interpreted as foreshadowing Spain's entry on the side of the Axis powers; the German Nazi leader, Adolf Hitler, and Franco discussed this move on more than one occasion. The two dictators could never come to terms, however. The German invasion of the Soviet Union in 1941 presented Franco with a unique opportunity to participate in the conflict without a declaration of war and to get revenge for the Soviet Union's aid to the Republicans. Franco agreed to a Falangist request for the official formation of a Blue Division of volunteers--which reached a maximum strength of 18,000 men--to fight on the eastern front. Franco still believed that the Axis powers would win the war, and he considered the intervention of Spanish volunteers to be an inexpensive way of assuring recognition of Spain's colonial claims after the war was over. \n\nThe war turned in favor of the Allies with the entry of the United States in December 1941 and the Allied landing in Casablanca in November 1942. At that time, Spain replaced its pro-Axis policy with a genuinely neutral stance. Spain withdrew the Blue Division from the eastern front in November 1943, thus ending Franco's major collaboration with Nazi Germany. In May 1944, Spain and the Allies concluded an agreement. The Spanish government agreed to end wolfram shipments to Germany, to close the German consulate in Tangier, and to expel German espionage agents. In exchange for these actions, the Allies were to ship petroleum and other necessary supplies to Spain. \n\nBy the end of 1944, Spain had entered into a period of "benevolent neutrality" toward the Allies. Spain allowed Allied aircraft to land inside its borders and permitted Allied intelligence agents to operate in Madrid. In spite of this opportunistic policy shift, Spain was ostracized at the end of the war by the victorious powers. Although the United States president, Harry S. Truman, and the British prime minister, Winston Churchill, successfully resisted Stalin's proposals at the Potsdam Conference in July 1945 for Allied intervention against Franco, Spain was denied membership in the United Nations (UN) because its government had come to power with the assistance of the Axis powers and had collaborated with them during the war. \n\nA resolution adopted by the second meeting of the UN General Assembly in December 1946 expressed the most severe postwar censure of the Franco regime. According to this resolution, Spain would be banned from the UN and would not be allowed to participate in any of its specialized agencies, as long as Franco remained in power. Franco did not appear seriously concerned by this censure, nor by the subsequen

The Big Bang Theory is the dominant scientific theory about the origin of the universe. According to the big bang, the universe was created sometime between 10 billion and 20 billion years ago from a cosmic explosion that hurled matter and in all directions. \nIn 1927, the Belgian priest Georges Lemaître was the first to propose that the universe began with the explosion of a primeval atom. His proposal came after observing the red shift in distant nebulas by astronomers to a model of the universe based on relativity. Years later, Edwin Hubble found experimental evidence to help justify Lemaître's theory. He found that distant galaxies in every direction are going away from us with speeds proportional to their distance. \n\nThe big bang was initially suggested because it explains why distant galaxies are traveling away from us at great speeds. The theory also predicts the existence of cosmic background radiation (the glow left over from the explosion itself). The Big Bang Theory received its strongest confirmation when this radiation was discovered in 1964 by Arno Penzias and Robert Wilson, who later won the Nobel Prize for this discovery. \n\nAlthough the Big Bang Theory is widely accepted, it probably will never be proved; consequentially, leaving a number of tough, unanswered questions.
