how much does a loaf of bread cost in new york city?

I'd better get the ten points for this, because I actually got up and walked to the kitchen to answer this question.\n\nA loaf of Arnold's Country White bread purchased two days ago at Gristedes Supermarket in Brooklyn Heights cost $3.29.\n\nWow. I know that this is an expensive part of the city, but I wasn't even really aware that I was paying so much for bread.\n\nGood question.

If you remember your Exodus, it tells the story about the Jews being slaves in Egypt and then how God freed them and brought them back to Israel, where they had come from and gave them back the land. The seder is a way of remembering all of these events. It discusses the hardship of being slaves in Egypt, that pharoah would not let the men be with their wives to decrease their numbers, the ten plagues that God sent, the journey to Israel. Prayers are spoken thanking God for doing this. Admonitions against supporting slavery are spoken during this ceremony.

Hiya :-) ! Don't know the answer to it. Do sometimes have dreams about spiders and I am quite good looking what the dreams up on the German site indicated below... would be nice if you could read German.\n\nHowever, the second source might be closer to your dream... if one refers to the dead spider :o) . Maybe it means that the problem that you were facing (represented by the dead spider) was quite a small problem (in your or in other's opinion) but that still it annoyed you hugely. But, because the spider was lying shrivelled on its back, it had to go this way as the problem or the situation creating the problem deceived itself and died... or that you beat it to it :-) ... so that you can move on? \n\nAll the best to you and I hope your life goes as you want it to be. Take care!


What did Jesus Christ do for me that was so special? Isn't the Bible just one big exaggeration?

It's a fictional fable on how to live right and what is right and wrong, nothing more.  It isn't real.


Who is up for a challenge? And this does have to do with the Holy Bible.?

It does say that, doesn't it.  Ok, that will be my challenge for tomorrow and for the rest of today. Can't let you know how it worked out, as I will have already answered this question.  But I do believe that "all things work together for go to those who love the Lord."


Just DISCOVERED that you're an INTROVERT?

It's good that you are willing to help others. It won't be easy if you are a true introvert. I'm pretty much an introvert myself, and would probably be living with my mom and dad or just working at McDonalds if it weren't for lucky things that have happened to me. Thank the fates!\nWhat would help me right now would be if I weren't such an introvert, but you know what? Since I can't do that, and I'm having to endure being around other people, letting them see what a dork I am, then what I really need is more patience, more patience for me to have, and I wish more patience other people to have for me.\nI'm happy that I am alone right now....\nI'm scared that I won't be alone, a friend is coming over and we're going out...Then I have to go back to work Monday.\nI'm angry that I have to be this way, and other people will say, "Get over it!"

It shouldn't, but I think I will become a lawyer so I can sue the USA and make some cash, thanks for the tip!!!

What do you think in interracial dating?

I think what's essential about someone is not what their race is; race strikes me, in fact, as a sort of arbitrary designation (we could maybe say this even about ethnicity, which is at least *more* justified, more of a "real" thing, and more meaningful). In some cases, you get widely different "races" within a single culture -- e.g. Latin Americans can be of "white European" descent, African descent, native North/South American descent, Asian descent, or any mixture of these things. My boyfriend is a very racially mixed Peruvian, and his point is, "Well if we're going to talk about race rather than culture... what race am I?" \nI think it'd be great when many more of us can ask this question; race will become a thing of the past...\nSo I very much like the idea of interracial dating and interracial marriage. Well, to be more precise, I think it actually doesn't matter at all, since as I said, race isn't the essential thing about a person; what matters is whether you love each other and connect in a deep way and can be happy together. So in this (the most fundamental) sense, I'd say it's no better or worse than dating someone of one's own race (or ethnicity, or culture); it just doesn't make a difference. But insofar as it's not simply neutral in this sense, I'd say interracial dating/marriage is actually a really *good* thing, since it takes us further and further away from segregationist attitudes and racial stereotypes and biases.\nProgress is good...


Governments do it all the time but I think it's immoral.\n\nIn some cases it might be justifiable for works that are just plain obscene or promote violence, works that accomplish nothing except make the world a worse place - turn people to criminals, or something that makes you worse off from reading it and has no beneficial value to anyone.

what weight loss pills or appetite suppressors available without a perscription actually work?

None of them.\nIf you read the fine print, they all say "These claims have not been evaluated by the FDA."  They also say that the pills/whatever work best when combined with a sensible diet and exercise program. Duh, a sensible diet and exercise program works even without pills.\nA lot of people are on here pushing diet pills that they sell.  Anything that's sold on testimonials and not hard scientific data is suspect.  And their supposed science data is never published in any real medical journals or publications or reviewed by any doctors not on the companies payroll.


do you think that the government should help homeless people?

the goverment does, however, a lot of people refuse the help that could fix there situation. For example, there are mental disorders that may lead to someone not being able to find work. There are medicines for these conditions, but the person does not take them, do to unpleasent side effects. It's really hard to stay homeless in America, with all the programs and low income housing, but there is a lot of help for those that "fall through the cracks".


Medical Question: can the doctors remove clots from the brain?in which hospital??

Hello.  I'm a physician and it is difficult for me to imagine a situation where the clot in the brain vessels would last that long (4 years).  In cases of more acute clot formation in the brain (like over course of hours or days), there are many way to treat these clots.  What you are looking for is called "endovascular therapy."  Many hospitals in the US and elsewhere perform this.  Here is the link to a useful article:\nhttp://www.mayoclinic.org/stroke/ischemic-stroke.html\n\nHope that helps and good luck.

Point Pleasant, West Virginia, was the proposed capital of this colony.

How do you win back the heart of a totally independant woman after 6 months of shaky relationship.?

You can't win her back but perhaps there is a chance you could EARN her back. \n\nBy this I mean that you should replace criticism with encouragement, emotional support and praise. After all, she's not supposed to be a mirror image of you, reflecting only your values, opinions and ways of doing things. \n\nIt sounds like both of you need boundaries. There are things that shouldn't be said, like hurtful judgments and criticisms. \n\nIt is so much more pleasant to appreciate and tolerate individual differences than to bicker over personal life styles!\n\nBest of luck to you and your lady!\nI hope it all works out for the best.

what do you feel is the american way of life?

How often do you ask yourself "What’s it all about?"" What’s my purpose?" "Where am I going?" Like most people, many times I would imagine.\n\nIn reality we won’t know the answer to that question while we are alive. We can speculate and guess and make educated hypotheses. We can also learn to listen to our inner voice, telling us that something just feels right.\n\nFor some, being on Earth is to wake up in the morning, do your “thing” during the day and go to bed at night, then repeat it all the next day; with no in-depth meaning of what life is about. For others, being on Earth is about experiencing life, being glad you are alive and looking forward to the next day because it has meaning for you.\n\nThere will always be extremists who believe in one extreme or another. At one end are the people who view life as having no meaning. They don’t believe in God or any form of a higher Being. Its okay when things are going well but they are ill equipped to handle the rough spots. At the other end are the people who have a deep-seated belief in a Divine Being. These people have something to fall back onto when the going gets rough. It may still be painful but nevertheless, they have some form of meaning in their life.\n\nWhy are we here? Those who have no religious or spiritual beliefs won’t care very much. “Maybe its all an accident of nature” say some. “We were cloned and put here from another planet to populate Earth” say others. Fortunately, there are many that believe that we are here on planet Earth to grow in consciousness, to express love and even be a co-creator with God.\n\nSurprisingly, many people who live in tyranny and desperate poverty are able to grow in consciousness despite the absence of outside ideas or help. One would think that the daily challenge of subsistence living would take all of their effort. Nevertheless, many develop a deep belief system –individually or with their local group- and often seem to achieve that growth more quickly than people in more affluent countries.\n\nWe should never lose sight of the fact that the United States is a wonderful place to live. Here we have above all, freedom of speech and belief. Our environment is conducive for learning and expanding our consciousness. However, all the luxuries that we have often make us lose track of the significance of keeping in touch with our spiritual side. To grow in consciousness and be an expression of the Divine Source requires some effort on our part. But, it is well worth the effort.\n\nThink of your life as an expression of God, experiencing a journey on planet Earth. Learning to be a creature of love, still faced with trials and obstacles of everyday life but developing faith and trust in a Divine Plan. Know that there is a reason for your life, and if we all start by trusting the Divine Source, life is less painful, more tranquil, and more rewarding. We all have a choice in life; to be kind and understanding or be cold and uncaring, with no concern for others. You will find that life actually goes more smoothly for you if you follow the path of Loving-Kindness.\n\nEvery time someone does a kind deed or says words of kindness it helps to raise the level of consciousness as a whole. Just think what a wonderful world it would be, if everyday each person consciously committed an act of loving-kindness. It doesn’t take much, just a smile or even making eye contact with someone whom is in need of a “pick me up.” Then think what the world would be like if we all went around self-serving and full of bitterness, each person caring only for him or her self. Not a very pretty picture, surely not what the Creator had in mind, not what its all about.\n\nThe world is made a better place one step at a time by each one of us taking the time to be considerate and caring. It really doesn't take much effort on our part and the benefits are well worth it. Try it, you might like it

Connection between the show LOST and Tallahasee?

When Kate was leaving, that's when the marshall said it had only strip malls and Waffle Houses (so that's not a 3rd reference).  But I heard that after the strip mall comment, the City of Tallahassee was angry at the producers, who didn't really care, so they may have stuck in Sawyer's comment about "burning" as a way to say "You think the strip mall comment was bad, wait til you hear this one."


i am fat and i want to slim down and loose 25 pounds for 2 montsh, is that possible? how?

I'm losing weight using www.sparkpeople.com. Its a very realistic goal if you want to lose 1-2 pounds per week AND ITS FREE! For me that was the most important.\n\nAlternatively you can figure out your basal metabolic rate (what your body requires you to function each day ie: breathing, blood circulation, cell function etc) and reduce your calories with diet and burn calories through exercises. \nAn example:\nIf your basal metabolic rate (you can estimate it by multiplying your weight x 10) is weight 160pounds x 10 = 1600 calories per day required to keep you alive and functioning. now this amount is if you do absolutely nothing all day. \nIf you were moderatly active you'd need 13440 calories a week or 1920 calories a day.\n\nwith 7000 calorie reduction = two pounds of of fat loss\nSo reduce the calories by 1000 a day you come up with:\n\n500 calories a day you can reduce foodwise = meaning eat 1420 calories a day\n\nand 500 calories a day through exercise = cardio vascular (biking, hiking,walking etc). you can find out how much a particular activity burns here: www.caloriesperhour.com (you can also get your basal metabolic rate)\n\nAdvice: add strength training at least 2 days a week. NO matter how healthy your diet is you will still lose muscle, water and fat with weightloss. Muscle burns fat. The less muscle you have, the less fat your body burns! \nMeasure weightloss in inches as well as actual weight, since 1lb of fat and 1lb of muscle will look VERY different even if they weigh the same (muscle is more compact and fat is fluffier).\n\n\nI wish you the best of luck and hope this was helpful.

Why do i shiver ? i dont even feel cold.?

Don't worry it happens to me too, all the time!\n\nNerves Know\nShivers are reflexes (say: ree-fleks-iz), which are things your body does automatically to keep you safe and healthy. Reflexes are controlled by your nervous system, which is made up of your brain, your spinal cord, and lots and lots of little nerves that stretch out all over your body. Nerves are like little strings or wires that carry information.\n\nWhat kind of information? Well, your nerves sense that the cool water of the lake has lowered your body temperature. Your body needs to stay at a toasty 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit (37 degrees Celsius) for you to be safe and comfortable. The nerves send signals saying, "I'm cold! Warm me up!"\n\nMuscles in Action\nThat's when things really start to get interesting. The signals go to your brain (telling you to wrap in the towel) and to your spinal cord, which sends a message to other nerves all over your body. What happens next? Your muscles tighten and loosen really fast. Why? They're trying to warm you up, just like taking a jog around the lake would do. Once you get all snug and cozy in your towel and your body warms back up, your brain and nerves tell your muscles to stop shivering.\n\nThere are other times when you might shiver, too. Sometimes you'll shiver when you're excited or afraid. When you feel these things, your brain and nerves send out messages through your body that cause your muscles to get excited, so you shiver.

Ever heard of the expression,"In a pig's eye". What does it mean?

Boy, that is a good one to bring back memories. It was one of my father's less obnoxious expressions. I now wonder how it got started in the first place. He used it in a situation like, I would say, "I am going to the movies tonight." He would answer,yelling "In a pig's eye!" "Your staying home and cleaning the cellar!!"   He was not the best father and this was one more way he would endear himself to me. So I guess it means NO WAY,  CAN'T HAPPEN, NOT LIKELY


what religion has to do with something called (a) sabith?

The Sabbath, or day of rest, is a common feature of Jewish and Christian religions.  Jews preserve the original Sabbath of the Hebrew and later Jewish faith, Saturday (dusk Friday to dusk Saturday), the 7th day of creation in the Genesis narrative.  Jews are enjoined by Jewish Law to observe specific practices on the Sabbath including avoidance of work in favor of reflection, prayer, and study.  For most Christians (other than Seventh Day Adventists), the belief that Jesus' resurrection occurred on a Sunday shifted the Sabbath to Sunday, and the Christian Sabbath is more about a period of time when it is obligatory to attend church services than a separate way of daily living, as seen in the Jewish faith.  Both Christians and Jews vary widely from sect to sect and individual to individual as to the importance and strictness of Sabbath-keeping customs.\n\nHope this helps.

How does one know that one is leaving one ocean / sea and entering another?

The seas, ocaena, rivers, and lakes of the world are all composed of similar material to different degrees. For example the Atlantic, Pacific and Indian Ocean all have different amounts of salt in them. When the Panama canal was built a division between the regions was seen. Not so much with eyes but with equipment. True, those who named regions of water may not have had any idea that they were slightly different but they are. On a ship it'll be pretty hard to tell which ocean you're in if you awoke from a concussion and just stared out at sea. Maritime borders are only used as a political tool. Every second some of teh ATlantic mixes with the Pacific and vice versa.

You gotta read the following article to get the whole picture ===>\n\n\nIntrepreneur or entrepreneur?\n\nQuite often you hear people talking about franchisees as entrepreneurs. They are wrong! True entrepreneurs will die of frustration in a franchise system because they want to do everything their own way. \n\nIf you really look at the type of person it takes to be successful in most franchise situations, what is really needed is an intrepreneur. \n\nEntrepreneurs tend to be highly independent. \nThey take a lot of risks and don't need anyone to motivate them. Intrepreneurs are self-managers as well. One huge difference though is that they like to work within guidelines in concert with other people. Intrepreneurs can be creative within a structure. The entrepreneur needs to create his or her own structure. \n\nEntrepreneurs get bored quickly. \nUsually within a year or so they will attempt to find excuses to get out of the system. Or even worse, they stay and start changing your system. These people can absolutely drive you nuts! They believe that they know better than you do how to run your business. \n\nOf course, the more units the franchisee owns, the more entrepreneurial the franchisee needs to be. However, there are still limits. The individual must still feel comfortable working within the system. The last thing you want is for someone who owns 30 or more locations to suddenly veer off in a direction totally different from the rest of the company. \n\nGoing too far the other way is even worse. Selecting people that are not entrepreneurial enough can be a huge drain on your company's resources. They like to be in constant contact with head office and seek approval for every little change they are contemplating. \n\nHere's an analogy \nI use this analogy to help describe the three different levels of independence. \n\nImagine you have just hired an individual and are showing them their office. \n\n\nThe employee type \n\nYou take them to the office, open the door to their work area and everything is laid out for them. You tell them not to move things around at all and they go in and do the job and they are happy. \n\n\nThe intrepreneur \n\nYou take them to the office, walk them down the hall to a pile of furniture and supplies piled up outside the door. Unlock the door and tell them to go in and set things up the way they want. To use some creativity within the structure and they are happy. \n\n\nThe entrepreneur \n\nYou walk them over to your vacant lot and tell them to build the office building and they are happy. \n\nFranchisors who want their company to grow need all three. \nFor the first 15 to 20 outlets the franchisor needs entrepreneurs, aggressive sellers and risk takers to build the business. Once systems are worked out and are up and running, intrepreneurs should be targeted. This is the time that entrepreneurs will likely to move on (voluntarily or otherwise) to new challenges. \n\nI've seen some retail store franchises get to 15 to 20 stores and then growth stalls. Rather than modifying their selection criteria, the franchisor continues with what worked in the past. They keep looking for more entrepreneurs. To cut down on franchisee turnovers, the selection criteria should be modified to target intrepreneurs instead. \n\nWith large franchises with hundreds of outlets the employee type of franchisee tends to work out best. Everything is laid out and there is no room for creativity. Everyone in the system knows exactly how many seconds it takes to "flip the burger". \n\nJust how important is independence in a franchisee? \nOur research has shown that when predicting sales volume, the candidate's independence level has a weighting of 9%. When giving on an overall recommendation, the weighting jumps to 16%. \n\nThis apparent low predictive value may very well be the result of the non-linear relationship between independence and performance.

Note: Windchill Temperature is only defined for temperatures at or below 50 degrees F and wind speeds above 3 mph. Bright sunshine may increase the windchill temperature by 10 to 18 degrees F. \nWindchill (ºF) = 35.74 + 0.6215T - 35.75(V^0.16) + 0.4275T(V^0.16)\nT is temperature in deg F and V is wind speed in mph.

Marc Cohn-True Companion.  I don't think many have heard this song, but it is beautiful, especially as a wedding song.  The lyrics are great as well as the sound.  It is worth listening to.  Below are the lyrics:\n\nBaby I’ve been searching like everybody else\nCan’t say nothing different about myself\nSometimes I’m an angel\nAnd sometimes I’m cruel\nAnd when it comes to love\nI’m just another fool\nYes, I’ll climb a mountain\nI’m gonna swim the sea\nThere ain’t no act of God girl\nCould keep you safe from me\nMy arms are reaching out\nOut across this canyon\nI’m asking you to be my true companion\nTrue companion\nTrue companion\n\nSo don’t you dare and try to walk away\nI’ve got my heart set on our wedding day\nI’ve got this vision of a girl in white\nMade my decision that it’s you allright\nAnd when I take your hand\nI’ll watch my heart set sail\nI’ll take my trembling fingers\nAnd I’ll lift up your veil\nThen I’ll take you home\nAnd with wild abandon\nMake love to you just like a true companion\nYou are my true companion\nI got a true companion\nTrue companion\n\nWhen the years have done irreparable harm\nI can see us walking slowly arm in arm\nJust like the couple on the corner do\n‘Cause girl I will always be in love with you\nAnd when I look in your eyes\nI’ll still see that spark\nUntil the shadows fall\nUntil the room grows dark\nThen when I leave this Earth\nI’ll be with the angels standin’\nI’ll be out there waiting for my true companion\nJust for my true companion\nTrue companion\nTrue companion


Because everyone wants to live here.  The climate is great.  You can swim in the ocean, a river, lakes.  You can go snow skiing or water skiing in the same area at different times of the year.  You can experience the excitement of a huge, diverse city like San Fran or drive a short distance and enjoy peace and quiet of a mountain.  We don't have tornadoes or hurricanes (just the VERY rare earthquake).  We don't grow big bugs...etc, etc, etc


What is the differnece between democrats and republicans. And how are they different.?

One of the most major differences (speaking more officially/ideologically, and leaving out de facto differences which are obvious enough today) is with respect to what the role of the state, and in particular the relationship of the state to individual liberty, should be. In general, republicans want as little government 'interference' as possible, and tend to be anti-taxation (to take one obvious example), on the grounds that 'It's my money and I should be free to do what I want with it; I know how to spend it better than the government does.' Democrats, on the other hand, tend to be more open to a system in which we all pay in, in the form of taxes, to fund social services like health care, education, and welfare.\n\nIf it clarifies things for you (or perhaps simply as a suggestion for further reading), I'd say that Robert Nozick, a libertarian, is a very good example of republican-style thought, whereas John Rawls would be much more of a democratic-style thinker -- major contrast between the two of them.

I need help with my severe spinal stinosis in my neck? and my lower back.?

Have you had a physical therapist help?  Depending on the location of your problem, you may get relief by learning better posture and strengthening muscles around your spine.\nThis is not something to invent by yourself for sure.\nYour physician, who should have x-rays or scans, should be able to provide this info to a good physical therapist.\n\nI am extremely sorry if your health insurance will not cover this.  I know that the US healthcare is near shambles right now.


What is the best way to remove hair from the pubic area?

Do not use kerosene on your skin as suggested by someone else. Go to a beauty salon and get the hair waxed. This is what i do. It does hurt but its ok, and it gives the best results, the hair takes longer to grown back and you won't have so many problems. Don't shave it makes it very itchy and it grows back quickly and can cause ingrown hairs and infected hair follicles. Don't try to wax yourself it will all end up a disaster!

Did you know that Jesus Christ is the only one who can solve all of your problems?

Yes, I do and I am very thankful that He died, to free me from sin, even through he gives me free will to choose.  I am grateful for his grace and mercy, and do not listen to people that do not know God.  The Devil is a LIE and the Truth is not in him.  Eternal life is what I am looking for and I know that this world is not the one that I want to stay in, but to live eternal with God is the way to peace and freedom.  Thank you Jesus for your love and I pray for others, that do not know you and and hope that they find their way to you.  And God Bless this child that made this statement and keep them on the path.  This is not because I am holy and without sin either, it is because I believe and I know where Jesus has brought me from.

For those that believe in judgement, what are the signs that make you think it's coming soon?

First let me say that I don't believe in a literal judgement. However there is a common vision that many religions seem to share about the endtimes. Namely the appearance or knowledge of  "black holes".\n\nChristianity: "The sun will be darkened. (Matthew24 and elsewhere)\nJudaism: "The sun shall be turned to darkness". (Book of Joel, and elsewhere)\nHinduism: The Night of Brahma. Where "The cosmos collapses into itself, and all phenomenal being is returned to a state of pure potentiality".\nBuddhism: "Nirvana". Literal Sanskrit translation is "The going out (extinguishment) of the light".\nIslam: "When the sun is folded up, and the stars turn dim and scatter". (Surah81, and elsewhere.\nHopi: "When the sun turns black". From the prophecy of the Blue Star Kachinas dancing in the plazas.\n\nAll of these prophecies seem to find something significant about the time when people are made aware of the fact that for every billion stars that die outright, one evolves into a black hole. By the way, the term "Black Hole" was coined in 1966.


why is it that american elections are so tight in the voting?

Perhaps because there is not much difference in what each candidate is all about. \n\nIf they would stick to the issues the voter would be able to decide for themselves what they want a candidate to be.\n\nThe media controls how the voter casts his vote. Too much money is spent to sway the voter. \n\nJust think if we had to go back to the 1860's during Lincoln's time. We would have a better idea what principles we would be asking ourselves to want. Now most Americans do not care who wins because they get tired of all the crap that is slung during a lengthy campaign.\n\nIf they would just stick to the real issues!


Once upon a time in a land far away called "France", there was a young man and young lady who liked each other very much.  When noone was looking they would touch their lips together to show the other one how much they liked them.  Well, one day the young man wondered what would happen if he opened his mouth.  So he did, and his young lady friend promptly slapped him for getting fresh.  But then, she decided that she liked it.  In fact they liked it so much that they decided to tell their other young couple friends to try it, and thus the French kiss was born, and the French got themselves a reputation of being sex-crazed snobs.

Is that dream only mine ?? Are dreams private?  Read...?

I am a dream reader and this one has thrown me for a loop. I don't know if its cause you didn't write clearly or if it's because it's a difficult dream to interpret.\n\nFirst I just want to clarify what your dream was (yes it was your dream, not hers).\n\nYou dreamed that you were seeing her dream through her eyes, correct.\n\nIf this is the case, it is a very hard dream to interprete.\n\nThe main reason is because I don't know what your her dream was about.\n\nThe only thing I can really tell you for certian is that either you and her are intertwind or you believe you are.\n\nLet me ask you some questions so that you can answer this question.\n\nCan you tell what she will say to you even before she says anything at all?\n\nCan she do the same?\n\nWould you be able to tell what she is doing at any hour of the day or night even when you are not with her?\n\nCan she do the same?\n\nIf you want me to help guide you further please e-mail me and tell me as much as you can about the dream. The more I know the easier it is to give an accurate reading.

My computer cant  boot up. I have the GO BACK program and I just moved it to recycle bin. how canIrestart?

reboot in safe mode and rollback to a previous installation.\n\nedit:\nif you can get to safe mode, then you can safely backup your pictures before you try other options. the "repair" option below is super risky. i tried it recently and it reformatted the hd (not on MY computer, ha ha ha.)\n\nhowever, it is not a disk problem. more likely a program that is running is corrupted (probably an install wizard or install shield.) if you can get into safe mode, answer back and we can help you try to locate the problem.


Explain different structures of protiens.?

There are four structures; primary, secondary and Tertiary structures. \n\nThe primary structure is the sequence of amino acids in a polypeptide chain, held together by peptide bonds (which occur between the amine group of one amino acid and the carboxyl group of another). \n\nThe secondary structure is the folding of the polypeptide chain into alpha helices and Beta pleated sheets, these are held together due to hydrogen bonding within the polypeptide itself. \n\nTeritary structure is the further folding of a polypeptide chain into a complex globular molecule (also held together by hydrogen bonds).\n\nFinally, Qauternary structure is the folding of two polypeptide chains together, the two chains are held together not only by hydrogen bonds but also by ionic bonds and disulphide bridges(these bonds form between the suplhur atoms on the R groups of the amino acids).

Evidently, you’ve just gastritis. I don’t know how long you’re getting those annoyances, hoping your stomach isn’t ulcerating yet. Anyway, the treatment comes through antacids and Histamine (H2) blockers pills. Obviously, you must avoid use of aspirin or any Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), alcohol, smoke and cafe. Stress and wrong diet also cause gastritis.

"Humans Think Computers Work" -- A quote on Computers.\n\nIsn't it self explanatory\n\nhttp://www.futureaccountant.com/\n\nhttp://www.schoolingkids.com/


Life – it has a meaning and loving purpose - you just have to find your purpose and live it.\n\nI believe every person is here for a definite purpose. Each person is special and valuable; that refers to me, you, your family, friends, in fact everybody! There is a loving plan for each of our lives here on earth and there is no such thing as coincidence. I don't believe that anything in life happens by chance and that every aspect of our lives points to something deeper.\n\nAs human beings, we all ask the question: Who am I? Who am I meant to become? What is my value or destiny as a human being? Who will become for me the model of my humanity? Pope John Paul II told us that ultimately JESUS CHRIST IS THE ANSWER to these questions. Christ is the living blueprint and pattern for our humanity. Jesus Christ reveals our meaning to us.\n\nThus Pope John Paul II, quoting Vatican II in his Redeemer of the Human Race, wrote: "Christ...fully reveals man to himself and brings to light his most high calling." "In Christ and through Christ," the pope added, all are enabled to come to "full awareness of their dignity...and of the meaning of their existence."\n\nYou need to decide now to live for God rather than for yourself. You spend your life on Earth preparing yourself (as best you can) for death. I don't see death as a scary, negative experience, but birth into a bliss filled eternal life with God. I believe that this is something you have to consciously choose or not during your life on earth. \n\nThe meaning of life is for us to discover that we are true children of an infinitely loving and merciful God, to find out what our responsibilities are to our Creator, and to fulfill those responsibilities. Each of us is called to affirm, accept and develop the talents God has given us.


How many moles of oxygen gas occupies 5.60L at STP?


if the earth(sphere) has 1000miles radius...?

This is to much work, but just to point you in the right direction;\n \nCalculate the volume a sphere with 1000 and call it V1.\n \nOnce the ice melts, there will be a larger sphere w/ a radius R and a volume V2 = V1 + volume of added water (the 8 million cubic miles). Find R.\n \nThe layer is R - 1000.\n \nObservation. There are two simplifications (at least) made here: 1) The ice wasn't adding to the original redius and the volume of the water yielded is the same as the ice's.\n \nPS: Are you sure that it is 8 million cubic miles? Seems like too much compared to 1000.\n\nEdit, response to additional details:\nI realize you could answer this as a defined integral from 1000 to R, but that's complicating a rather simple geometry problem. IMHO\n \nSolution:\nsphere volume = 4/3 pi r^3\nSo you solve for R in\n \n4/3 pi R^3 - 4/3 pi 1000^3 = 8,000,000\n \nand the answer to the problem is R-1000

How does family trust depends on the sharing of information and how lying might damage family cohesiveness.?

Simple actually. You can't trust someone who will lie to you and you can't maintain a close relationship with someone you don't trust.


You can't completely.  The best you can do is take advantage of all the technology that exists.  Make sure your controlling what is on tv, what is on the computer, and what is in your home.  In the outside world though you have little control and need to explain it to your kids.


are there laws against gay discrimination in black fraternities?

I would be inclined to say that frats are private clubs that can chose their members on whatever criteria they want.  If they're allowed to exclude white people they're also allowed to exclude gay people.  Even if they aren't allowed to exclude people because of sexual orientation, they can exclude people they just don't like, so have fun proving it was cause you're gay ("we just didn't like him" would be a sufficient defense on their part)  Besides, why would you want to be in a frat that clearly doesn't want you?  The point of a frat is friendship (the word fraternity is derived from the latin word for brotherhood).  You can't sue your way into that.

In network therory, how can tou tell if a network can be crossed without retracing paths?

Suppose the network is represented by a graph with edges and vertices. Do you mean you want to take a path through the graph that passes through every edge without travelling on an edge more than once ? This is an easy problem in graph theory, and such a path is called an Euler path. An Euler path through a connected graph exists if and only if the graph contains at most two vertices with odd degree (the number of edges the vertex has). This is a trivial theorem.\nSuppose a graph is connected, which means there exists some path between any pair of vertices. For each vertex, there is some number of edges connected to it. Suppose the number of edges is even for all the vertices. Then there is no problem drawing an Euler path through these edges. Explain why (Examine the problem at each vertex).\nFrom the above, the only possible problems must come from vertices with odd degree. Without loss of generality, we proceed by adding vertices of odd degree to the nice graph described above. Adding one vertex is no problem, we start at that vertex, travel along the one additional edge and then we're in a nice graph that already contains an Euler path, since the vertex we left at the start now has even degree, for all intents and purposes. \nIf we add two vertices of odd degree, we are alright as well, with the exception that any path must start at one of these vertices and end at the other. Show this by labelling each odd degree vertex with little "in" and "out" signs on the edges.\nIt should now be obvious that we can't add any more vertices with odd degree for the simple reason that a path that doesn't double back on itself can only have 2 endpoints. Adding more vertices doesn't change the fact that you put your pencil down at one odd vertex and you're required to lift it back up at one other odd vertex. After that, the game is up.

What was the first plant or animal that used sex for reproduction?

It was probably a single celled organism and it didn´t involve sex as we are used to. Instead they would have exchanged genetic material to produce an offspring that was different from the parents. \n\nSex was "invented" about 800 million years ago. Before that everything reproduced through mitosis. There was some multicellular organisms at the time, animals even, but they also reproduced with mitosis. Mitosis is basically cloning. The offspring is a carboncopy of the parent leaving little room for changes which is why life on earth was very primitive for 3 billion years. But 800 million years ago an explosion in the biological diversity occured. Life went from simple organisms to dinosaurs in a flash. Two things contributed to this explosion, called the Cambrian explosion. \nOne was the oxygenation of the atmosphere and the hydrosphere which had been going on about 2.5 billion years but had now reached levells where life forms were able to fully utilize this resource. \nThe second was the advent of sexual reproduction which always generates offspring that is different from the parents causing evolution to go berzerk.\n\nWhich lifeform that actually was first we can´t really say. There are organisms today that can reproduce both sexually and asexually so the fossilrecord can only give so many clues. We can only say that suddenly, by geological timescales, there were lots of advanced lifeforms on earth that used sexualreproduction.

What is meant by the wind chill factor??

It's basically how much colder the wind makes it feel like outside. That's why the weather websites (http://www.weather.com/) they tell you the actual temperature and what it really feels like. The "what it feels like" temperature is the actual temperature minus the wind chill.

G.W. Bush is a worst president ever in USA?

Worst in my lifetime, and I was born during Truman's first term.  No president has divided this nation as much and caused more harm to us internationally than George W. Bush and his band of cronies.  He should be impeached for all of the needless deaths he has caused.

are renewables better than oil?and do they have apotential risks on our life?

The problem is oil is running out. Once the oil runs out, we will probably be able to switch to renewables and get by. But the problem is there are many things other than car transport we use petrochemicals for. Plastics, fetilizer, lubricants, moving tankers across the seas and so forth. We will still need those things, and wind farms will not fertilize our crops.\n\nSo the short answer is, we need to stop using oil for things we have alternative sources of power for, because we will still need oil for other things 100 or 200 or 500 years from now. For those things for which there is no replacement for oil.

Is there a time limit to recover an old (1995) 401k left at an old job? How do I go about it?

The answer is really up to your past employer, or more correctly the company that administers that old 401(K).  Contact them to find out their rules.  Usually, there is a deadline, which is by the end of the fiscal year in which you leave the company.  But you really should call them and get the answer in writing from them.\n\nBest of Luck.

using one dart, what is the lowest number that you can't get on a dartboard?

23\n\n0 can be scored by not hitting the board(it could also be argued that 0 is not a true number). 1-20 are regular numbers. 21 is treble 7, 22 is double 11. 23 is the first prime number and can only be divided by itself and 1. therefore not available on a dartboard. \n\nGood lord - dont I sound brainy!!


review your processes and technology.  business within a company normally follows some sort of flow (hopefully!).  i have used a flow diagram to get a sense of how things are happening.  most times you will need to interview employees to hear directly how they are doing their jobs (sometimes what you think might be happening isn't)\n\nafter you've done the audit, you can often times spot redundancies or inefficientcies.  this can apply to all parts of your business - from personnel workflow, to technology to...  absolutely anything that is part of a process.

I forget what movie I saw it on, some mobster movie, they beat a guy with a bag of oranges. I worked in a bike shop(no oranges)my boss was a jerk. I beat him with a bag of tricycles.

I heard that when at a function that provides wine, you shouldn't take a glass of red wine first?

Are you going to a wine tasting? Typically you should start with white wine and work over to reds then finish with dessert wines. Reds tend to be more full-bodied and can overwhelm the taste of the white if you drink it first.\nIf you're just going to a party and have a preference for red wine, then just have red wine.


how to gain free access of marriage and divorce records?

Some counties have it online but I don't think that other than 'going through them by hand down there' is it gonna be free.. in fact I doubt that you can?  Does he know what county they were supposedly married in?  Because he's the one that's supposedly married, if there is a record there, he can get a copy...but it will still cost.  I do not know of a national 'marriage license search' for free.. and there are the online ones that are available for a fee.\n\n** Boy, I dunno..... if you have no 'idea' where they got married, the only other way to 'know' is if she changed her last name (does she have the same last name?  If so, did she change it at Social Security - if so - he could call there to see if it's been reported he's married?).  The other thing is, if she won't produce 'proof' or give a county that they were married in, get a lawyer, and 'subpeona' the records.  She probably is BS'in you guys, but that's gonna be the only way to know for sure, if you can't find out any other way.....\n\nThe ONLY state I know for sure that does NOT have a 24 hour or better waiting period is Nevada (i.e. Reno, Las Vegas) and I know because I got married there.


Most in Us fear iraqui civil war, its it time to start withdrawing our troops?

We withdrew about 15,000 troops that we had sent in for extra security for the December 15, 2005 Iraqi election.  Osama bin Laden second in command releases a tape stating that we were withdrawing our troops because we know we lost the war in Iraq.  The insurgents are terrorists being backed by bin Laden and his followers.  It is their attempt to make the country fall into Civil War thus making us look badly to their people.  If we leave there will definitely be a Civil War at once without our security to keep the different factions apart until the Iraqi government becomes strong enough to control these matters themselves.  Either way it looks as though we are there for a lot longer than we want to be.  It is better for us to remain there a little longer and lose credibility because of it than to withdraw all our troops and have the whole Middle East fall into chaos and lose credibility because of that.  Whatever we do in the position we are in is not going to please all the people.  We are better off keeping the terrorist's in a part of the world where our military can fight them than to be fighting them in our streets.


Arbitration under double taxation agreements with relevance to UK Law?

Is this what you are looking for?\n\nThe Arbitration Convention may be used as an alternative procedure to the mutual agreement procedure under the UK's Double Taxation Agreements in certain cases of double taxation arising from transfer pricing adjustments. The Tax Bulletin article "The Mutual Agreement Procedure in UK Double Taxation Conventions" (Issue 25 October 1996) indicated that further guidance would be provided, and this article provides that guidance. Although the article necessarily expresses the UK's interpretation of the Arbitration Convention, the Inland Revenue has discussed the implementation of the Arbitration Convention with other contracting states and believes that the interpretations expressed are shared by other states. The Inland Revenue expects that such discussion will continue in the light of greater practical experience in implementing the Arbitration Convention.\n\nThe UK, along with the other member states of the European Union, is a signatory to the Arbitration Convention ("Convention on the elimination of double taxation in connection with the adjustment of profits of associated enterprises" 90/463/EEC) -- referred to in the rest of this article as "the Convention". The Convention came into force on 1 January 1995 for an initial period of five years. (The process of extending the provision of the Convention to the new member states -- Austria, Finland, and Sweden -- is currently under way but ratification is not yet complete).\n\nMore on this website: http://www.hmrc.gov.uk/bulletins/tb31.htm


How can I handle the stress of high school?

1.  Ask yourself whether YOU want to complete the IB programme.  If you do (and not just because other people want you to), then promise yourself you'll work at it.\n2.  Spend a few days in your holiday time making a list of priorities - work to be done in various subjects, and a timetable of what time you will spend doing each item.  Keep to this timetable EXACTLY - and include 'tea-breaks' every 45 minutes.\n3.  Tell yourself that you'll keep to the timetable and not allow yourself to worry whether it's enough.  If you succeed you'll be happy, if you don't, you'll be satisfied you did your best.\n4.  Talk to your parents about your plans once you've made them.\n5.  I doubt that students dislike you because of your bad grades.  If that IS the reason then they are real ***holes!  If you can form a regime for yourself and stick to it, you'll like yourself more.  Students of your age (I'm assuming you are 16-18?) will sense your rising self-esteem and like you the more for it.\n6.  At your age, I went through this and made myself seriously ill by worrying about it.  It's not worth it.  Do your best but don't hurt yourself by struggling without purpose.\nGood luck!

what are the measure measurements of basketball court?

Building a Basketball Court - NBA Size Basketball Court Dimensions \nThe correct dimensions of an NBA size basketball court are summarized below from the NBA rules, Section 1. First, the basketball court should measure 94 feet from baseline to baseline and 50 feet from sideline to sideline. The halfcourt line should be marked in the middle, 47 feet from either baseline. The ‘jump circle’ at halfcourt must have a 2 foot radius and be surrounded by a second circle that has a 6 foot radius. From each baseline, measure 18 feet and 10 inches to mark your free throw line and the length of the ‘lane’, which should measure 16 feet total width. For further information about basketball court dimensions, check out a free copy of the NBA Rules & Guidelines.

Should Bush be booted? Or should he stick around?

Ok, look:\n\n There is no reason why George W Bush should be "booted." He is protecting this country to the best of his ability and the Liberals are exactly the opposite. People need to realize this:  How can you protect a country that doesn't exist?  If we would not went to War on Terror then we might not have a country. The terrorist would have kept bombing us and killing us. Then, we wouldn't have a country...then we wouldn't have a Constitution...then we wouldn't have any rights.

how long does it take to raise your credit and in what ways can i do that?

It will take several months to a year to get your credit really improved. Be careful of using a company who says they can raise your credit score. Cause legally they cant. Only you can. And while paying them large sums of money, you can dod it yourself for free. Depends on the elbow grease your willing to give. Check it out. There really is no super fast way to do it. But the best and probably quickest way would be to go to Annualcreditreport.com and get your free 3 credit reports. Then go through them and dispute the negative items on your report that dont make valid. Even if unsure, do so anyways because it becomes the responsibility of the creditor to prove that the information is accurate. If the creditor doesnt respond within 30 days the negative item has to be removed by law. In which removing a negative credit report item raises your score. Also, finding your most recent and lowest balance debt and offering halve of what you totally owed for it. Most creditors are willing to do this if your account has been way behind for a long time. Because now they're just worried about getting any money from you at all. Same is 100% true for collection agencies whom took over your bad debt. Offer half and no more. Ask to include in writing and mailed to you that they will remove negative from your credit report in terms of full half-amount payment. That raises your score. Other would be as suggested to get a secured credit card and just use it for gas twice a month or something small. Dont use it for anything else! Thats how you get screwed up again. Make the payments on time...everytime. This will start to show up as a positive item in your credit report and by showing a low balance on you card (30% or less of high limit) will show you can be responsible with your credit and thus create a higher score and higher opinion of a future creditor...such as an auto financer. Heed this and Hope i was of some good help to you. Good luck. Shuuutnstr =o)

How can birds be decendents of the Dinosaurs if the Dinosaurs were wiped out by a super meteor?

Birds had already evolved from a group of relatively small predatory dinosaurs by the Jurassic (that is, the middle of the Secondary Age). No one knows for sure what killed many species (not only dinosaurs) at the end of the Cretacic Period (several million years after the origin of birds) but it was probably a combination of factors, including the large meteor. Maybe you're picturing the meteor as a gigantic bomb that just wiped everything from the Earth, but although the local effects of the hit must have been devastating, the rest of the world experienced other effects (such as darkening clouds) that were more gradual but also more lasting. \nThat being said, all species have finite existence, and the reasons for extinction and survival are many. Mass extinctions are like extraordinary combinations of the "ordinary" background extinctions that happen all the time in an evolutionary/geological scale. \nIn the Secondary/Tertiary boundary, many large animals went extinct while smaller ones survived (including us mammals!), so ecophysiological characteristics of those species may have something to do with their extinction (perhaps the meteor combined with other environmental changes). \n\nIf you're interested, there are good Evolution textbooks (Ridley or Price are modern classics) that deal with the different extinction patterns and factors.


do u honestly believe THE WORLD WILL END! with in the next 10 or so years?

No but it's a worry given the quality of world leadership we are enduring! You should ask Mr. Bush, Mr. Blair, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei (for those that don't know he's Supreme Leader of Iran which is both religious leader and military commander in chief - a dangerous combination!) and Hú Jǐntāo (President of the People's Republic of China who threatened Mr. Bush with nuclear war if Bush tried to stop China's progress towards annexing Taiwan, or attacked North Korea). As an Economics grad I know if none of these characters spark a nuclear confrontation we should survive the next 10 years. \n\nYou are also right to say that every beginning has an end. As a science grad I believe that the world will end eventually but not in our life time as our Sun, source of most life processes will die. In 4–5 billion years, it will enter a red giant phase, its outer layers expanding as the hydrogen fuel in the core is consumed and the core contracts and heats up. Helium fusion will begin when the core temperature reaches about 3×108 K. While it is likely that the expansion of the outer layers of the Sun will reach the current position of Earth's orbit. Recent research suggests that mass lost from the Sun earlier in its red giant phase will cause the Earth's orbit to move further out, preventing it from being engulfed. Following the red giant phase, intense thermal pulsations will cause the Sun to throw off its outer layers, forming a planetary nebula. The Sun will then evolve into a white dwarf, slowly cooling over eons. At this stage the solar luminosity will be insufficient to support life on Earth.

Why is the earth's axis taken to be inclined?

The Earth is rotating around an axis (called its rotational axis). Some objects rotate about a horizontal axis, like a rolling log. Some objects, such as a skater, rotate about a vertical axis. The Earth's axis is tipped over about 23.5° from vertical.\n\nHow do we define up and down in space? What would "vertical" mean? For the Earth, we can think of vertical as straight up and down with respect to the plane in which the Earth orbits the Sun (called the ecliptic).\n\nEarth's rotational axis points in the same direction relative to the stars, so that the North Pole points towards the star Polaris. Think of the Earth as a spinning top, tipped over to one side. Over very long time periods (thousands of years) the direction of Earth's axis slowly changes due to precession.\n\nThe Earth rotates around once in 24 hours - that's a rate of 1000 miles per hour!. The time it takes for the Earth to rotate completely around once is what we call a day. It's Earth's rotation that gives us night and day.\n\nThe combined effect of the Earth's tilt and its orbital motion result in the seasons

Can a single dad find a lasting relationship?

much easier than a single Mom!!! \nTo a woman, a single dad already proved that he can have and raise kids in a stable environment. If that isn´t a plus for women who are looking for a good man I don´t know what!!\nTo a man, a single mom is loaded with baggage - somebody else´s children!\nIt´s not fair but that´s the way society seems to promote it.. \nSo the answer is still DEFINITELY! If you´ve already proven you´re a good dad and then on top of that have a job then you are an invitation to any woman who is looking for a serious relationship! I can´t believe you´re asking.. lol. you should be swamped with nice women :-)

Is every thing in bible exactly  what God and jesus said?

the bible was written a couple of hundred years after jesus died... do you really think that's exactly what god and jesus said. actually a lot of parts of the bible were destroyed or are kept secret by the vatican! or are just being declared as fake. and most of the holidays we know and celebrate today are actually old pagan dates. the date of easter for example was set by constantine and a council:\n\nBefore 325 C.E. Easter could be celebrated on different days of the week; these included Friday, Saturday, or Sunday. Again, the lack of solidarity among the churches of the ancient world created a schism in the power of the church. Constantine called the Council of Nicea in 325, the first great ecumenical council of the Catholic Church, where not only the Arian controversy concerning the nature of Christ was resolved, but the date of Easter was finally firmly established. This was called the "Easter rule," and the festival is always celebrated on a Sunday between March 22 and April 25 (Tian et. al. 8). This, of course, contributed to a much more unified empire in the far flung borders of Constantine's reign.\n\na lot of things are different than they appear. and the bible is a very nice book if you read it by yourself or with someone you love and you take your time to figure out what the stories mean by yourself... having a priest telling you what it's all about can be dangers... dogmas etc.

disadvantages of imperialism on philippines by America?

Jake Montana, you are dead wrong.  The Filipino uprising in at the turn of the 20th century was caused by equally abusive administration of those islands by their new colonizers as compared to their previous owners the Spaniards.
