is it good to follow text book openings in chess?

If you are just starting out, it is not that important to memorize opening moves.  It is much more important to understand the fundamentals:\n\n1) control the center\n2) develop your pieces\n3) get your king to safety\n\nOnce you have a sense of these concepts, then learning specific openings will be a lot more meaningful to you.

I try to provide you possible amount of my knowldge.  Gspot is the region located in vagina of female.  It is said that Gspot is located about 7.5 inches deep inside the vagina.  While the intercourse, female at the point feels maximum pleasure.  That pleasure is defined as 'Orgasm'.  It is the most wonderful feeling that female has.\nBut when female orgams with the involvement of Gspot, that orgasm is one of the fastanstic and the best orgasms (even experienced females die for).\n\nBut how does that orgasm differ from other?\nWhile Gspot orgasm, female ejaculates aa huge fountain of fluid for even 5 mins.

They define dead moment as, Female experience such an extreme pleasure in orgasm that they for a minute or two get still experiencing the pleasure (likely).  \n\nThis is what the wonder of Gspot and Gspot Orgasm.


When investing in realestate, is it best to buy and sell, or buy and rent?

It all depends on what is happening in your market. Some markets are "cashflow" markets. These are areas where you can buy a house and rent it out for an amount where you make a good profit, thus cashflow.\n\nOther markets are better for buy and sell. When you can't make properties cashflow, then you need to find properties where you can buy low and sell high. Also, there are times when you are willing to have a negative cashflow because the appreciation is so high. You hold the property for a few years, renting it and feeding it at the same time, and then sell when the appreciation has increased the value and you get your payday then.\n\nThe market determines the strategy -- not the other way around.

HOW DO YOU REMOVE CHEWING GUM FROM CLOTHES?

There is a product on the market called "Goo Gone" that can remove ANYTHING sticky from any surface! It is the most amazing stuff.

Takes off bumper stickers without ruining the paint job, takes off price tag stickers from picture frames, tape residue off windows, gum from clothes, everything I have ever tried it on it has worked. You can probably get it at your local grocery store, definately at your local Home Depot or Lowes.

How come only your fingers and toes get wrinkly in the shower and nothing else does?

It's not that only your fingers and toes wrinkle, but they do so more easily.\n\nInevitably, a nice long soak in a bathtub sloughs off the excess sebum from your epidermis. As a result, your skin starts to take on water. The top layer of the epidermis is known as the stratum corneum, which is Latin for "horny layer." These are the tough, dead skin cells that are constantly being sloughed off your body in your clothes, your bed, and in the form of dandruff. Disturbing, but true. \n\nYour fingers and toes have especially thick layers of stratum corneum. Once deprived of sebum, they swell up with water, causing wrinkles.


are there any programs to help people with huge child support debts?

I wish I could say yes there is a program that helps fathers.  My fiancee' is in the same situation only we just found out that the eldest child may not be his.

Sorry I can't offer any advice but at least now you guys can know someone else is going through the same thing Good luck.


When did India devolpe the caste system?

The caste system in India can be described as an elaborately stratified social hierarchy distinguishing India’s social structure from any other nation. Its history is multifaceted and complex.  \nCaste is a term, which is used to specify a group of people having a specific social rank and dates back to 1200 BCE. The Indian term for caste is jati, and generally designates a group that can vary in size from a handful to many thousands. There are thousands of jatis each with its own rules and customs. The various jatis are traditionally arranged in hierarchical order and fit into one of the four basic varnas the (Sanskrit word for “colors”).   \n--The varna of Brahmans, commonly identified with priests and the learned class \n--The varna of Kshatriyas, associated with rulers and warriors including    property owners. \n--The varna of Vaishyas, associated with commercial livelihoods (i.e. traders) \n--The varna of Shudras, the servile laborers  \nThe Untouchables occupy a place that is not clearly defined by boundaries and is outside of the varna scheme. Their jobs (such as toilet cleaning and garbage removal) cause them to be considered impure and thus “untouchable.”  Historically the untouchables were not allowed in temples and many other public places. In 1950 legislation was passed to prevent any form of discrimination towards the untouchables. Although legislation has affected the status of the people, they are yet very much a visible part of Indian society. \n\nhttp://www.mtholyoke.edu/~epandit/page2.html\n\nOrigins of the Caste System:\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caste_system#Origins_of_the_Caste_System


Roadside bombings in Iraq:  why can't we intercept and kill some of the bombers as they plant the bombs???

The bombers often show great imagination in their attacks on the main supply routes around Fallujah. “We even found one cemented into the underside of a bridge passing over the main highway so it would explode from above,” said Sgt Anderson. Some devices are aimed not at convoys but at his men. The most ingenious so far was a solar panel, which when the dirt covering it was brushed aside by a US soldier looking for a bomb, would be exposed to the light, complete an electrical circuit and detonate the explosives. Just once Anderson found the person at the other end of a 400-yard-long wire attached to a bomb. It turned out to be a 12-year-old boy who was taken back to his home where his father was arrested.\n\nThe main instrument used for detecting bombs is a foot-long silver-colored stick, which is in fact a titanium non-metallic mine probe. Anderson and his men walk along each side of a main road. “We look for wires — anything which is out of place,” he says. “We identify metal in the ground.” This is particularly difficult in Iraq because the sides of the roads are used as garbage dumps, making traditional metal detectors useless. Lying on the ground outside the cement huts at Volturno — before the war a Baath party resort beside a fresh water lake — are 122mm and 155mm shells, the main explosive device used by guerrillas. The point of the shell is removed and a blaster cap put in attached by wire to a battery, usually of the size used in a motorcycle. “It isn’t exactly rocket science,” said First Lt. Ron Sturgeon of the same unit. “Aside from shells, almost anything can be used, such as a fire extinguisher container which will fragment when it blows up.”\n\nThe advantage of the remote detonator such as a cell phone or a garage door opener from the point of view of the bomber is that he can stand further away. Anderson and his men know that somebody is watching them and their methods as they make their way slowly down the road. Noticing that they carefully turned over rocks some guerrilla attached a string to a stone and concealed the power source in an old plastic water bottle with wires leading to several heavy artillery shells. Signals from car alarms can be scrambled but cell phones are more difficult to intercept (in this case the bomber simply phones the number of a second phone attached to a battery to detonate the bomb).\n\nNone of Anderson’s squad knew what they were facing when they arrived in Fallujah. “When we first came out we were winging it,” said Specialist Shane Thomson. One of the many surprises for the US Army in Iraq is that the little titanium mine probe has turned out to be more useful than all its gigantic battle tanks.


Assuming the Copenhagen Interpretation is correct, what happens to the other forms the object has?

This is one of those wierd questions in Quantum Mechanics where there is no way to visualize the answer. Our brains, understandably, have evolved to handle falling rocks, jumping tigers, and other macroscopic objects. We have numerous hardwired responses to these things which follow classical, Newtonian Physics.\n\nOn the atomic and subatomic scales where objects behave according to the laws of Quantum Mechanics things are different. An electron can behave like a wave in this experiment, but a particle in another experiments. According the classical physics (and our macroscopic-loving brain's "common sense) nothing can be *both* a particle and a wave. \n\nSo what is an electron? A wavicle? A partiave? \n\nNope. An electron is a, well, an electron. Sometime it will behave *exactly* like a wave, other times it will behave *exactly* like a particle. Never will it behave like some intermeditate or mixed state.\n\nThe problem - to the extent there is a problem - is that we cannot visiualize this. There is no way to form a picture in our heads the same way we can form a picture of a ball flying though the air. Our brains are meant to operate on macroscopic phenomena, and subatomic phenomena just behave differently.\n\nPresumably some other alien species could have some sort of mind, or mind-like thing, for which the whole wave-particle duality thing just makes perfect sense! But presumably this aliens would be confused by what are to us the simple motions of a ball flying through the air.\n\nSo, in the Copenhagen Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics, there is no sense in which the "other forms" of an object change after a wavefunction is collapsed. That this seems to be a problem is more a function of our brains and how they have evolved.\n\n\n(As an aside, it should be said that it is possible to understand the mathematics underlying Quantum Mechanics. And to be able to use this math to make extremely accurate predictions of how electrons, atoms, etc. will behave. These predictions can be tested experimentally and Quantum Mechanics holds up extremely well. \n\nSo while QM is very wierd, there is an enormous amount of evidence that it is correct.)

(Hey Smilin1) Can I purchase a home?  see details.?

Hi I'm looking to buy a place also. You are somewhat younger then me, I'm 25. I think that a house is always a sound investment for people who can stay in one place for a long time. I would suggest talking to a real estate broker about your finances. But the real question you should ask yourself is, “At this young age am I ready to stay in this home for at least 5 years?” If the answer is no then I would continue to rent.


a ghost is only an image, i dont believe they are the souls of dead people, i believe they are sometimes made to look like people who have once been here, or even are spirits that used to remain in/on people when they were here. Ok i'm just gonna be blunt. ghosts are spirits of this world aka demons. there are only two spiritual powers here on earth and they are good and bad. the only way i know how to tell the difference is by reading the bible.Ghost exist? No. Everyday spiritual warfare? Yes. It is a very complicated and detailed subject. If you are serious about wanting to know more or are expiriencing some mystical sightings i would love to talk with you. Get at me dwalker4293@charter.net

Why do cops think the laws they are supposed to enforce do not apply to them or their families?

There is a certain  mentality that it takes to be a cop, and its not really a good one. People who become cops usually do it because in ordinary life they think thier above everyone else, so they look for a job to compliment thier mental pattern.

Do you remembe John Lennon? If so tell me about him.?

He died in New York City in front of an apartment building after being shot by Mark David Chapman the night of December 8th, 1980.  I remember working at a radio station in Ladysmith, Wisconsin when the bells went off on the teletype with the bulletin announcing he had been assassinated.  That was one of the toughest stories I ever had to air because I had been a huge fan of not just John but the Beatles overall.  For the balance of the night I played all Beatles & John Lennon music...and will never forget that sad night.

If you're asking for the history of language, that can be traced through various archeological websites. Generally, we can trace our English and many other European languages back to roots in northern India. But that's a "where," not a "how."\nSites that deal with theories about language are referenced below.\n\nNoam Chomsky says:\n".....which meant that the language system is like other biological systems. It develops in its own specific fashion on the basis of its genetically determined properties and in the course of this development it's modified and shaped by interaction with the outside environment in some fashion."(1)\n\nRead more on this and follow the links listed in UsingEnglish.com \n"Jelle Zuidema's essay "The Origin of Language Debate" contains a discussion about the theories put forward by Noam Chomsky and Steven Pinker (who provided the basis for the now widely accepted classical theory on the origin and development of language skills), and those provided by Luc Steels and Brian MacWhinney who attempt to propose an alternative theory."

How can an amateur golfer become a PGA tour pro?

What does the word" peg" mean in stock reports?

PEG refers to the P/E ratio (price divided earnings per share) divided by the projected earnings growth rate of the company.\nExample:  A company has a stock price of $10, earnings per share of $0.50 and a project earnings growth of 30%.  It's P/E ratio would be 20 (10/.5) and the PEG ratio would be 0.66 (20/30).\nNow imagine that the company had a projected earnings growth rate of 5%.  The resulting PEG ratio  would be 4.0 (20/5).\nInvestors often use the benchmarks of 1.0 or 1.5 as an indicator of a stock's valuation (expensive v. cheap).  I would argue that 1.0 is for low-growth companies and 1.5 for high-growth companies.  But, you can make your own judgements.\nBasically the PEG ratio allows investors to compare the price they're paying in relation to future earnings growth across different stocks.  All else being equal, you want to buy a stock with a lower PEG ratio because it means you're paying less for the same future earnings power.  But of course, all other things are not equal when comparing different companies, so you must consider all other relevant factors when making a decision.

why are some men threatened by bisexual women?

I think it depends on the man. Some have self esteem issues that develop and cause them to be threatened. They wonder if you may need more from that woman that they couldnt give you.

Will the New York Rangers make the playoffs this year?

it's a close run for every position, but mostly for a playoff spot.\n\nit's indeed a bit early in the season and there are many factors that can make a difference including injuries but also a slump for only 5-6 games can make a huge difference when it is this close.\n\nBut it seems that the rangers will make the playoffs for the first time in many years...with the least amount of stars and therefore with the smallest payroll!\n\nIt shows that money doesn't always buy a championship!

what do you do if you love someone (like deeply) and they don't know that you still love them? please help.

Sometimes you can't make a clean break with love. The emotion is just too intense. If you are like me...once you love, you always love. It never really goes away. Personally, I would drive to his house and be sitting on his porch step when he arrives home from work. I would stand there and wait for him to walk up to me and I would simply say......"I love you." He'll know you mean it......nothing else will need to be said. The gesture will say it all. But the point is......you need to tell him!! Good luck!

MY BEST FRIEND DIONDRA BORROWED MY FAVORITE SHIRT AND NEVER RETURNED IT WHAT SHOULD  I DONT HAVE ENOUGH GUTTS?

well, if you don't have the guts to come right out and ask for it back you could always pretend like you are looking for it, say that you can't find your fave shirt anywhere and you really wanted to wear it to that party or to work or whatever!  And then hopefully she will say "Oh, I have that!  Let me get it back to you!"  It is likely that she forgot she has it.  I have accidentally done that to a friend before.


How was Bill Oreilly able to get his own talk show on fox news? Was he a journalist before doing commentary?

O'Reilly does have a background in local television news and tabloid TV. I would call him a commentator more than a journalist, as he is inclined to  editorializes on the news more than break it. \n\nHere's a bit of his professional biography from wikipedia:\n\nAfter graduating from Marist, Bill O'Reilly moved to Miami, Florida, where he taught English and history at a Jesuit high school for two years. After leaving Miami, O'Reilly returned to school, earning a Masters in Broadcast Journalism from Boston University in 1976. While attending BU, he was a reporter and columnist for various local newspapers and alternative news weeklies, including the Boston Phoenix. O'Reilly did his broadcast journalism internship in Miami during this time, and was also an entertainment writer and movie reviewer for the Miami Herald.\n\nO'Reilly's early television news career included reporting and anchoring positions at WNEP-TV in Scranton, Pennsylvania, where he also reported the weather. At WFAA-TV in Dallas, Texas, O'Reilly was awarded the Dallas Press Club Award for excellence in investigative reporting. Then it was off to KMGH-TV in Denver, Colorado where he won an Emmy for his coverage of a skyjacking. O'Reilly also worked in Portland, Oregon, Hartford, Connecticut, and Boston. [5] In 1980, he anchored his own program on WCBS-TV in New York where he won his second Emmy for an investigation of corrupt city marshals. He was promoted to the network as a CBS News correspondent and covered the wars in the Falkland Islands and El Salvador from his base in Buenos Aires, Argentina (1982). In 1986, O'Reilly joined ABC News as a correspondent on ABC World News Tonight. In three years, he appeared on the show over one hundred times, receiving two National Headliner Awards for excellence in reporting.\nWJLA, Washington, DC Inside Edition promo featuring Bill O'Reilly, 1993.\nEnlarge\nWJLA, Washington, DC Inside Edition promo featuring Bill O'Reilly, 1993.\n\nIn 1989, O'Reilly joined the nationally syndicated Inside Edition, a current affairs television program (called "infotainment" by critics). He started as senior correspondent and backup anchor for British journalist David Frost, but soon took over the anchor chair when the viewers found him more appealing. In addition to being one of the first broadcasters to cover the dismantling of the Berlin Wall, O'Reilly also obtained the first exclusive interview with murderer Joel Steinberg and was the first national anchor on the scene of the 1992 Los Angeles riots.\n\nIn 1995, O'Reilly left Inside Edition to enroll at the John F. Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University, where he received a Master's Degree in Public Administration. Upon leaving Harvard, Roger Ailes, chairman and CEO of the then startup FOX News Channel, hired O'Reilly to anchor The O'Reilly Report, which aired weeknights. The nascent channel's most popular show was renamed to The O'Reilly Factor when it moved to a later time slot in 1998 since the host was the main "factor" of the show.


what does it take to be a diplomat?a degree in econs+politc science or deg in law+international relations?

Good grades and application to the State Deparment.  They will have a preference for certain degrees like you mentioned, but grades and background check will probably be more important than the major.\n\nThere are many jobs such as ambassador, consular officers, and numerous administrative positions at each of the embassy, consular offices, etc.

what is a nice way to break up with your gf?

Tell her to her face, be direct, don't be evasive.  Tell her your feelings have changed and that you don't want to go out with her anymore.  Let her talk or cry or whatever else she needs to do, and let her feel like she has been heard.  Don't make any lame promises like "we can still be friends".  If there is another girl this isn't the time to tell her that, either.  Be direct, be kind, be firm.  Then change your cell phone number.  Good Luck to both of you.


My exhusband has full custody of our 4 girls. I pay child support but have to work 2 jobs to o so?

As long as u have visitation, he can't do anything, but be mad. I don't like divorce, but when it happens I feel as though if the parents are doing all they can for the sake of their child(ren, then it works out. Your husband should realize this. Working two jobs is rough, I should know I did it for two years and trying to find time to spend with your kids is as well. I commend you for your efforts, but be careful don't give him a reason to take your rights away. I've seen it because of this and it hurts the kids not the adults in the long run. If u need too go back to the courts and see if you and your husband can come to an agreement to kind of lower your payments to him for the kids so that you can spend more time with them. Explain that because of the child support you have to work 2 jobs and this is putting not only a strain on you, but your relationship with your kids. I would think this would be a sympathic plea and someone would hear you. It's just a thought. I pray things work out for you it sounds like u are going to need it.

why do they make special key-boards in china if they can form the words in our letters?

In part for reasons of efficiency.  For them to use a keyboard such as the one you used when you typed the question, they would need to type four or five times the number of characters to same the same thing.\n\nDue to this, specialized keyboards have been developed to enhance the writing into pictograph, such as the Bicameral Keyboard Arrangement.  (see references below)\n\nEven notebook computers can be found with the Chinese enhanced keyboard.

what is the best school of law in the united states of america?

The top three law schools in the countery are generally considered to be Yale, Harvard, and Stanford.  Yale is consistently ranked #1 according to the US News Law School rankings, and it's easy to see why.  Yale has a very small class of just a couple hundred, and accepted only about 7% of students who apply, and very few ever turn them down.  It is considered a more philosophical law school and produces the most respected corpus of academic work in the nation.  It educates an overwhelming relative percentage of future academics and judges.\n\nHarvard does put Yale to good competition, though, since it has a class of 550 that is almost identically qualified.  Its giant class size helps it wield more influence than Yale in some respects.\n\nA quick look at the Supreme Court clerks for 2005 reflects the prestige of these three schools:\n\n1.  Harvard University (10)\n2.  Yale University (6)\n3.  Stanford University (4)


There's a couple of different theories on this. When hackers had achieved "root access" on a target, they would shout "root", eventually as mistyping and slang took over, this became "woot". The other is an acronym in team-based gameplay, meaning: We Owned Other Team. Another is from D&D, where "Wow! Loot!" was shortened to Woot. Some people also think "w00t" derives from the german word "Wut", which means the same as "anger" and is often used in computer matches to emphasize ones own rage. So pick your favorite and go with that, I guess it's too shrouded in obscurity to know for sure.


While the American chemical company Du Pont was busy inventing nylon and telling the world about it in the?

PTFE fluoropolymer resin was discovered by DuPont chemist Roy J. Plunkett in 1938. The same year, DuPont chemist Wallace H. Carothers invented nylon. The Teflon® trademark was registered to DuPont in 1945. Nylon was never registered as a trademark and was given to all to use.\n\nTeflon® fluoropolymer resin is used in the manufacture of DuPont branded nonstick coatings: Teflon®, SilverStone®, SilverStone® Xtra, SilverStone® Select, SilverStone® Professional and Autograph.\n\nTeflon® is used for O-ring gaskets and tape for the protective case housing the original Emancipation Proclamation, delivered in 1862 by U.S. President Abraham Lincoln.\n\nTeflon® has been involved in the U.S. space program since the program's infancy. When astronaut Neil Armstrong took his historic "giant leap for mankind" in 1969, the moon module included numerous applications involving Teflon® resin, including space suits and blankets, heat shields, insulation and cargo hold liners.\n\nTeflon® is used in many applications for computer chip manufacture because it is very inert and non-reactive. It's used in filters to keep air clean, in chip carriers, and virtually all tubing and piping in the semiconductor industry. DuPont Teflon® is the dominant brand used in the industry and DuPont has supplied Teflon® to that market since its inception.\n\nTeflon® was one of the discoveries cited when DuPont received the U.S. National Medal of Technology from U.S. President Bush in 1990 for its role in the development and commercialization of man-made polymers in the 20th century.\n\nAs a fiber, Teflon® is used to manufacture socks that reduce friction and blisters. These are especially crucial for diabetics, people with circulatory problems, geriatric needs, obesity and sensitive skin. They are made by Comfort Socks and were recently approved by the U.S. Food & Drug Administration.\n\nTechnology based on Teflon® also is used to repel dirt and spills from DuPont StainMaster® carpet, which is specially engineered to protect carpet from tracked in dirt and spilled food and drinks. As a result, carpets stay 40% cleaner, vacuum cleaner efficiency is increased and carpet looks new longer.\n\nPTFE fluoropolymer resin is listed in the Guinness Book of World Records as the world's most slippery substance.\n\nTeflon® is used to insulate thousands of miles of data communications cables because of its outstanding properties, heat and chemical resistance.\n\nOther unique uses of Teflon® include: wiper blades and refills, leashes, collars, harnesses and belts, nail enamel treatment (Sally Hansen), bicycle lubricants, hosiery (Teflon® is made as a fiber, too), among others.\n\nTeflon® is used to coat fiberglass fabrics for permanent architectural structures such as the Pontiac Silverdome in Detroit, Michigan, and the Orange Bowl at Syracuse University in Syracuse, New York.\n\nMajor fashion designers and brands that use Teflon® fabric protector include: Hugo Boss, Prada, Ralph Lauren, Nautica, Yeohlee, Kenneth Cole, Woolrich, Pendleton, Koret, The Gap, J. Crew, L.L. Bean, Eddie Bauer, Robert Allen Beacon Hill Fabrics and Lee Jofa Fabrics, among others.\n\nAs a liquid, Teflon® repels water and stains for the apparel, home fashions, furniture, and uniform markets. The Teflon® forms a molecular shield around each fiber, guarding them from oil and water-based stains, dust and soil. Undetectable by sight, smell or touch, Teflon® protects virtually all kinds of fabrics — silk, wool, wool-blends, cotton, linen, velvet, heavy wovens, microfibers and both smooth and rugged fabrics — without affecting their color, feel or breathability.\n\nTeflon® industrial coatings can be used on carbon steel, aluminum, stainless steel, steel alloys, brass and magnesium, as well as non-metallics such as glass, fiberglass, some rubber and plastics. The versatility of these coatings allows almost unlimited application to a wide variety of part sizes and con

The weight per cubic foot is basically the density.\n\nThe density of glass varies with each type and ranges from 2000 to 8000 kg/m3 (for comparison, from less dense than aluminum to more dense than iron) at standard conditions. Flint glass can be so much denser than crown glass because flint glass contains lead, which is a very dense element.

Is Jesus Christ the only one to ever claim to rise from the dead and then show themself to hundreds as proof?

The answer is no.  I spent some time with the homeless population in Atlanta a while back, and there were more than a couple of men (no women, strangely enough) that claimed to be risen from the dead and were in fact walking miracles for the whole world to see.  I could see how a non-homeless person who states the very same thing could be taken more seriously.\n\nThere are also many Taoist texts where men were said to have died, not just once, but many times, and were risen of their own will to walk the earth again.  It is written as a part of their testament to immortality.\n\nAlso, many religions that claim reincarnation will state that they have lived past lives and have returned to live again.  Some even claim to have died in this current life, but were resirected to continue to live in their current body.\n\nThe truth is, it will be very, very difficult to find someone who honestly believes that they have risen from the dead to show people they still live.  Even more difficult to find anyone who has "witnessed" it.  You will only find speculation and "faith" mentioned when discussing this....unless you are willing to try it for yourself.  \n\nIt is called history for a reason.  It is a story that is told and sometimes believed.  It is your choice to believe it or not, no matter who is saying they did it or someone else claiming it to be true.


What is democracy? Is the definition as black and white as it used to be?

Democracy means decision making by the people, and always has.  But the definition leaves a lot of wiggle room, since there are questions it does not address, such as "who are the people?", "which decisions do they make?", "when there is a decision to be made, how are possible courses of action proposed and considered?", and "how are conflicts resolved?"\n\n"The people" has evolved.  In England at one time, only landowners could participate in elections.  In many countries two hundred years ago, only men could vote.  Today, every adult is allowed to vote in most (all? I have no idea) countries.  I'd count this as a positive change.\n\n"In which decisions do the people participate?"  Usually, people only get to choose candidates to make decisions for them (representative democracy) and this has been the case throughout the modern era.  The people are only allowed to make decisions directly in rare cases (usually called referendums.)  Even then, the set of choices, and the way the outcome is computed, is not decided by the people. Here, democracy has not evolved, even though modern technology could allow the public to make decisions easily and regularly, at low cost.\n\n"When there is a decision to be made, how are possible courses of action proposed and considered?" Concerning the decision of who to elect, almost anyone is typically allowed to run for office, and each candidate must find some way to convince voters to vote for them.  Once in office, an official then helps make decisions on behalf of the people. The details vary from country to country, but generally, one person proposes a bill and then it goes through a period of revision and debate in a legislature.  The process is often declared in the constitution, so if the process works poorly, the country is permanently hurt by it.\n\nIt seems to me that all of these things--the way candidates are chosen, how they win the hearts of the people, and how decisions are made in legislatures--change very little over time, even when the problems are obvious (e.g. the U.S. electoral college).\n\n"how are conflicts resolved?" is an important question that is often ignored, and therefore does not evolve over time.  To choose one candidate among several, for example, many countries including the U.S. and Canada use Single Plurality (first-past-the-post) voting.  Yet people familiar with the properties of alternatives know that Single Plurality is one of the worst possible systems.  Australia actually recognized this and tried to fix it by introducing Instant Runoff Voting (IRV), yet this system doesn't work much better in practice and from a purely mathematical perspective, it is utterly nonsensical.  Mathematically and intuitively, Ranked Pairs is arguably the best system for choosing one candidate among several, but for choosing many candidates (e.g. for a legislature), a proportional representation system would probably be better (I would say so definitively, except that I know less about it).\n\nFinally, I would add that whether "democracy is getting better or worse" is not a question we should be concerned with per se.  In my opinion, democracy should not be an end in itself, but rather a means--one of many--to maintain/improve the overall happiness and contentedness of society's people.  It accomplishes this primarily by ensuring that small numbers of people do not have excessive amounts of power, because the decisions of small groups tend to be at the expense of everyone else.  If democracy fails to assist general happiness, then we may as well dump it.  Direct democracy is certainly more "democratic" than representative democracy, but we should only want it insofar as it would result in better decision-making.


Why Can't you Make comments on questions in which the answers are being voted on?


Who decides what is politically correct?

Politically correct is a term that I think refers to respect for minorities.  It's basically a way of speaking that attempts to respect others by adopting the same language they use when referring to themselves, or the issues that are of most importance to them.  It is a reflection of our national values of equality and equal rights.\n\nBecause of the nature of opression, majority groups such as Men, Christians and Whites are usually much less affected by slurs, racism, etc, because they are not living with the legacy of discrimination and opression in the recent past.\n\nTo answer the question, I would say that the minorities themselves would be the ones who decide what is and is not disrespectful, racist, or politically correct from their perspective.\n\nFor example, many black people prefer to be called "African Americans" rather than black or negro or other such words.  Some of those worlds have been used throughout our history and are strongly connected with opression and discrimination.  Knowing this, we can choose to respect those wishes and adopt that speech, or we can reject it outright.\n\nAsian-Americans may feel that being called "oriental" is offensive to them, as the word has it has taken on a negative historical connotation, in books and spoken words throuought the years.\n\nWomen might find it offensive to be called "the little lady" or "girls", as this may harken back to a time when people thought of women as inferior to men or needing of male guidance, so they prefer to be called women.\n\nBasically I think that political correctness is a choice that you make to respect or disrespect minorities when you are discussing issues of race or gender in public.

Describe the dimentions of a pyramid with a volume of 30cm^3?

Volume of a pyramid = (1/3)(area of base, which is a square) * height\nSo 30cm^3 = (1/3) (s^2)(h) Multiply by 3 to clear the fraction --> \n90cm^2 = s^2(h)\n\nNow the problem is that we have one equation for two unknowns. We cannot arrive at one definite solution because there are infinite possibilities. \nSo we can get some possible dimensions by assigning a value to one dimension and then working out the other one. \n\nFor example, if the sides of the botom are 1 cm, then the height is 90\nIf the sides are each 3, then the area of the base is 9 and the height is 10.

It's in women's best interest to let men watch as much porn as possible.  That includes letting them lie about watching it. \n\nPornography is the best thing to happen to women since the fight for equality.

Do you suppose women give it to them?

What Is Better: Slow and Methodical or Fast And To The Point?

Some people tend to use one method over the other almost all the time.  Methodical people tend the be rational thinkers with little or no intuition.  Fast and to the pointers tend to be the opposite, relying on intuition without thinking about the problem.\nIn most cases something between.  Slow and methodical can be carried to extremes and nothing will ever happen except thinking about the situation.  Fast and to the point can be carried too far and turn into fast but missing the mark.


No one person appears to have invented algebra in all its complexity and\nglory. Instead, it appears to have sort of "grown up."  Western Europeans\nlearned their algebra from the works of the Persian mathematician Muhammed ibn\nMusa al-Khowarizmi.  The word, algebra, is a corruption of al-jabr which is\npart of the title of his treatise, Hisab al-jabr w'al muqabalah which means\nsomething like, "the science of reunion and reduction."  It is pretty clear\nthat the Persians got some of these ideas from earlier work of the Babylonians,\nEgyptians, Chinese, Hindus, and who knows else.


Which is the best and reasonably priced laptop computer for personal use?

A laptop doesn't have a touch screen and costs less than it's tablet counterpart.  The Compaq are ok along with SysteMax. or is it System Max?  spending more than $600 for a personal use system is a waste.  The cheap $400 units are ok if you get a new one.  If it doesn't have built in WiFi it will only set you back $50.00

how can i keep junk mail from getting on my e-mail? I need something you don't need a credit card to use.?

I've faced junk mail problems a lot of times in the past, until I hit gold (read Gmail).\n\nTrue, spam is all around you - so if can't escape from it, kill it - and when you talk about killing it (for free too, that is) Gmail has the best spam-guard by far.\n\nSwitch to Gmail - ask one of your friends to send you a GMAIL invite. You'll see the difference.\n\nIf you still aren't willing to change to a new email address, try the five-star rated freeware "Spam Nullifier".

Yahoo! Answers of course! Find deep hr dquestions that no one seems to be able to answer and spend your time researching them to see how many ten-point answers you can get.\n\nFind a good book. Read a subject matter or style of fiction that you normally don't like. Expand your horizons.\n\nTake in a good movie. Rent a bunch of movies with the same theme, like maybe Christmas.  Go online and look for a movie playing at theatres that youhaven't thought about seeing, you might discover something you really like. \n\nMeet new friends online while you are away from your friends at school.\n\nUse your imagination.


Opinion: Why isn't inductive coupling technology getting more traction?

A couple reasons.  First of all, it would introduce a new standard and adding an inductive coil to a portable device may have space ramifications.  The main problem it solves is simply not big enough for customers to pay for it.  It may make sense for a toothbrush as the connection is waterproof but it is inefficient and if the devices are not waterproof, what do you gain?  Also, as more and more devices connect to computers and charge via USB without an external adapter, carrying around a bulky inductive charger is not so useful anymore.  Also, inductive charging involves magnetic fields which is not a problem over small distances but you wouldn't want to transmit power over any distance at all via induction, since you would essentially be living in a giant cancer causing magnetic field.  Just my opinion.


Do you think that Metallica should call it quits?

Well, if you read their interviews, Metallica's Hetfield and Ulrich have stated that they dislike their best album, ...And Justice for All, because their fans didn't like it live, and because the songs were too long that they couldn't remember them.\n\nWell, this was their best album, and Master of Puppets was the second best. Metallica just doesn't understand their more dedicated fans (a new fan is the same or better than an old fan to them) and they just care about entertaining themselves. Well, as long as they are entertained they can keep at it I guess, but it doesn't impress me because they've lost me musically many albums ago.


my boss asked me to lie, and "stay in the closet" at work.... is that fair?

If you're not "Flaming", it's not only unfair, it's possibly illegal.\nYour boss has a right to demand that you behave in a professional manner but does not have the right to censor your personal life or ask you to lie.\nSpeak with a lawyer before you act on my belief that it's unlawful discrimination or sexual harrassment, because the law may be different in your jurisdiction.


A sedative is a drug that depresses the central nervous system (CNS), which causes calmness, relaxation, reduction of anxiety, sleepiness, slowed breathing, slurred speech, staggering gait, poor judgment, and slow, uncertain reflexes. Sedatives may be referred to as tranquilizers, depressants, anxiolytics, soporifics, sleeping pills, downers, or sedative-hypnotics. At high doses or when they are abused, many of these drugs can cause unconsciousness and death.\n\nSome common sedatives are pentobarbital (Nembutal®,) mephobarbital, (Mebaral®,) secobarbital (Seconal® or Tuinal®,) amobarbital (Amytal®,) and phenobarbital (Luminal®.) Barbiturates are usually bright colored capsules.\n\nSome good sources of information are mentioned below :

How much are your bleeding?  If it just light bleeding and it is bright red, it more than likely is related to hemorrhoids which can be internal.  Do you have itching?  Did it occur after a large or hard bowel movement... if so it is most likely hemmorhoids.  If it continues, please see your doctor as bleeding can be a sign of something more serious.

Does in christianity eating pork and drinking wine is allowed?

Those who  call  themselves Christian & who believe that the Savior died so they can eat bugs & scavengers are from  the traditions of man (mainly Emperor Constantine & his Popes).\n\nTrue believers know that God does not change; that God's Laws are perfect; that it is willful heresy to "iinterpret" Scripture to justify  whatever they want to do.\n\nIn the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God... And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us.... Jesus is the Word, He always has been, the OT is the Word (Jesus) of God..., and in the NT, Jesus is incarnate. Of course He could explain the OT Scriptures so well - He is the Author. He didn't change & He didn't change Scripture - He prophesied it; He clarified it; He personified it! That is our advantage of being born AD - we have the blessing, of knowing the prophesies have come true (we get to be Doubting Thomas'), and of being given divine insights into Scripture.\n\nWhether we were born BC or AD is rather irrelevant, salvationwise. In the OT days of the Patriarchs & prophets, God justified the faithful by Grace; in NT-days, God still justifies the faithful by Grace.\n\nEating unclean animals is an abomination to God.

What is the fastest way to obtain a aa degree.?

... I always wonder why people ask for the fastest way for a degree, not the slowest? It is because they don't care about the degree or they see it like getting a doctor's shot then they on their way. You get out of a degree what you put into it. Finding a way to graduate early in no way will "help" you. Please look at the quality of the program in determining what you pursue. Good luck my friend..

i wana read a book, so tell me what is your fav. book, let me explore your fav book?

Well it all depends on what genre you like, really. If you like fiction/fantasy, I could help you there. There's Eragon, by Christopher Paolini, and it's sequel, Eldest (a third book is coming out at some point too). \nAlso there's this book called the Sword of Shannara, by Terry Brooks. There's a bunch of books in that series. \nAnd two classics, The Lord of the Rings (My all-time favorite) and Harry Potter (though most people have read this, I thought I'd suggest it anyway  just in case you haven't). \nIf you like Fiction/Fantasy, you'll like some of these books.\nEnjoy!\n\n - Luthien

Why doesn't a metal detector detect the iron in our blood?

Metal detectors look for the ability of metal to conduct an induced current.  A single atom cannot have an induced current on that scale.  You need a continuous loop of ground-state metal (not the ions in our blood) to get an induced current.


in my web editor I downloaded some images and they won't show in preview mode but do in edit mode?

This is the way most html editors work, to really test this you can save the file and drop it into a browser to see if your images are there.  Of course remember that when you link images and photos that they are where you say they are.  e.g. in the correct folder with your img source pointing to that location.\n\nFrom personal experience using dreamweaver seems more complicated then say frontpage but offers a ton more functionality.\n\nHope this helps a little...

How is the current U.S. neoconservative government different from Nazis of Germany?

The Nazi's were not after oil.\n\nThey did not have MSM journalists and think-tanks to provide them with respectability.\n\nThe Brits did not capitulate like a poodle then, as Blair does now.\n\nThe neocons will probably walk free to their Haliburtons/Enrons; no Nuremburg style trials for them.

Someone great, once said "I love human beings, it is the people that I hate".?

The original of the quote is "I love humanity, but I hate people". This great someone is Edna St. Vincent Millay, an American poet.\n\nWhat she probably meant was: humanity as an abstract ideal relates and appeals to all of us, and the collective efforts of humanity and the ideal of human being is therefore subject to love and care. \n\nHowever "people", the name given to group of indivudals who contribute to humanity spoils all things idealistic that relates to humanity, defying its own existence. It's possible to observe, measure and judge people, but humanity as a whole is blameless from the acts of people.\n\nSo the quote is basically a play on idealism and realism, how people don't deserve umbrella terms like humanity, how they suck, how they don't understand us, yada yada. \n\nThe problem with this attitude is that it excludes the term humanity from the undesired acts of the people, while involving the desired ones. Yet, Humanity itself is responsible of "bad things" as well. Although Humanity has a "good" connotation, it does not, and should not encompass "good", or only good. It is and should remain a neutral term. \n\nSo if you hate people, you also hate humanity for it is people who amount to it. If you love humanity, it's very hard to hate people, for it's people who contribute to humanity.\n\nMaybe the joke is on that misunderstanding. But I am only human, I can make mistakes. Don't hate me for being wrong, but love my human side.

Which former US Presidents stated..."....sacrifice safety for freedom....does not deserve safety or freedom"?

Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.\n\nBenjamin Franklin\n\nOne of my favorite quotes.


this is a common "proof" that is often bandied about, even though it's wrong.  \n\nLet a=b. \n\nmultiply by a:\na^2 = ab\n\nsubtract b^2:\na^2 - b^2 = ab - b^2\n\nfactor both sides:\n(a+b)(a-b) = (a-b)b\n\ncancel (a-b)\n(a+b) = b\n\nsubstitute a=b from the first step:\n2b = b\n\ndivide by b:\n2=1\n\nsubtract 1 from both sides\n1=0\n\n\nfortunately sanity is saved when you realize that the step where you cancel (b-a) from both sides is actually dividing by zero, since you specify beforehand that b=a.  this is not so much a proof as a mathematical fallacy.  see the link below for another, more complicated version of the same thing.


It depends a lot on where you live.  If you live in the country (like I do) and have a barn nearby, you can climb or use a ladder to get to the highest corners of the barn.  Baby pigeons basically look like oversized chicks (the real kind, not girls) with a lot of missing feathers.  They live the kind of life most of us dream of: get "beak" fed by your parents for several months, do no work of any kind and simply sit there and grow.  But of course, they arent' as sanitary with their droppings as we are.

Is the speed of the internet effected by the type of CPU the computer on which is runs has?

The speed of the Internet is mainly affected by the connection the user has and the infrastructure of the Internet Service Provider. Users typically connect to the Internet using analog modems (56Kbps). With the spread of broadband, more and more users are connecting to the Net using high speed systems (Cable Modem, DSL, WiFi, T1, etc). Regardless of the connection there will be always a small percent of the “real” speed that a user experience that will be affected only by the type of CPU been used. As an example, in a high speed home network (Cable Modem 2Mbps) a Pentium IV at 3.0GHz will have more or less the same performance as a Pentium II 500MHz. For extreme Internet applications (like video, games, or music) there will be significant differences but those can not be attributed to the speed of the Internet connection; instead to the speed of the CPU.


Basically, we're screwed up! WE're clingy, dependent and want the fairytale. We always think we can "help" someone and that they will change or what ever.

okay so I have this b/f & I like him & everything but there's this other guy who's really cute & I like him so

If you're thinking about other guys when you have a boyfriend, then you're obviously not that "into" him. When you're with a guy you really like, you'll know it.\nSo my advice would be to first figure out what you want in a boyfriend. If you only want to be with someone who you are absolutely crazy about, then keep looking and get to know this other guy. If you're just looking for someone to hang out with and whatever else, then maybe your boyfriend isn't so bad if you like being with him.\nGood luck.


al·ma ma·ter or Al·ma Ma·ter\nn.\n1. The school, college, or university that one has attended.\n2. The anthem of an institution of higher learning.\n\nAlma mater is Latin for "nourishing mother". It was used in ancient Rome as a title for the mother goddess, and in Medieval Christianity for the Virgin Mary. In many modern languages it is usually and principally heard as a term of academia. Thus in the English language it is used, though less frequently than formerly, as a sobriquet for the university or college a person has attended. In American English, it is also heard in reference to a high school or elementary school. Alma mater is sometimes the incipit of a school's anthem or song, and may be taken as a title for the genre. The term is more familiar in the United States than in the United Kingdom.

Most cities or counties have recycling programs for electronic waste such as computers, monitors, and in your case copiers. In my area, Los Angeles County, they have e-Waste roundups where you drive up with your pickup truck or put stuff in your trunk, and they take it out free of charge. You can visit www.888CleanLA.com for more information. If you reside in a different area, I would contact your local City or County office.


possible herbal treatment for pericardial effusion?

Not all pericardial effusions are life-threatening or need treatment.  Those that are life threatening certainly cannot be treated with herbal medications ( and I am a big believer in these meds) and require complex procedures (i.e. pericardial window etc...) So....even if there were an herbal treatment would you use it on a condition  which will either spontaneously go away or potentially kill you?

Can I have a statement written by myself, stamped by a notary?

As usual with legal-related questions on Yahoo! Answers, too little information exists to answer this question adequately.  The state you're in would be helpful.  Not posting the same question five times would be helpful.  Nevertheless, I'll answer what I can in this question, and post another question if you need more details.\n\nAt this date and time, it's getting a little too late to deal with the problems adequately.  A notarized note will not be very helpful - after all, the dispute is not about whether the house exists in that condition, but whether you or the landlord should be responsible for the cost of those conditions.\n\nTaking photographs and video is helpful, but again it only shows that damage exists, not who is responsible for it.  The video, though, may be able to show that it wasn't from your abuse of the apartment, but from natural wear and tear that the landlord refused to repair.\n\nDo you have any record of communication with the landlord?  That's the strongest piece of evidence you'll have.  You'd be able to show that you notified the landlord, or that the landlord acknowledged receipt of that request.\n\nIt's a little too late now, but you should have sent certified mailings to the landlord.  The landlord would have had to sign a card acknowledging that he received your letter, and you would have proof that he received your request.  With just 10 days to go, it's too late for that.\n\nI would carefully catalog everything that has happened, with each date you noticed the problem if possible, if the cause was natural, when you notified the landlord, and the entire history of the dispute.  Photos and video are helpful if you go to court.  A notarized statement is not very helpful.  Records of communication with your landlord are extremely helpful.  Otherwise, if you don't get the security deposit, you may simply have to go to small claims court with the recordings and hope that the judge believes your story.


why do mosquitoes bit and why does it itch so bad when they do?

Mosquitoes are attracted to the heat, humidity, and carbon dioxide that mammals emit. When they bite, some of their saliva is absorbed into the bite. Our body reacts to the "infection" and creates the bump and itch.  Calamine lotion is the best defense. Place it on the bump and it absorbs to relieve the itch.

I found a video called "All Time A's," which should include Casenco's home run.  A couple of independent collectors also seem to have it.  I thought I found it on another site, but it was audio only and a dead link.  The first site linked says it has the DVD, though, and may be your best shot.  It doesn't look like it's online, but if you're a big enough A's fan, you may want the DVD anyway.

how do you know if you are an effective teacher?

We encourage the teachers we train to create performance objectives.  Performance objectives are statements that say how the students will demonstrate the knowledge they learned in that lesson.  Then, at the end of the lesson, if students can do what you want, they have the knowledge.\n\nFor example, if I want the students to know a list of vocabulary words, I can see their knowledge when they use the vocabulary in a matching activity.  My performance objective could be "By the end of class, students will be able to correctly match the 15 vocabulary words we covered today."  When the knowledge is tied to something they do with the knowledge, it's easy to see whether they have the knowledge or not.\n\nYou teach media tech, right?  So, in your class, the knowledge they will have is operating the cameras and other equipment and putting together their projects.  If they can do those things, they have successfully learned.\n\nAlso, you can have the students fill out surveys to evaluate how the class is going for them.  Sometimes I do this informally by just asking the students to write the answers to a couple of questions at the end of class.  Sometimes this is more formal, like the anonymous evaluations we do at the end of the semester.\n\nSome teachers focus more on their own teaching, thinking that the teacher makes all the difference about learning or not.  Some teachers prefer to see themselves as facilitators of student learning.  I certainly hope that my students don't depend on me for all their learning, since I want them to continue learning after my class is over!  So it's not just about being a good teacher, but whether or not you help students learn.

which color laser printer best for home office?

That depends partly on your printing needs - do you need something that's generally good at both text and graphics, something that's better at graphics and ok with text, or something mainly for text with ok graphics output.  There's a good review for you to look at on pcworld.com - see link.


How do you get over agoraphobia (fear of leaving the house)?

You're right ME does suck.  But, if you networking with a router, all you'll need to do is make sure TCP/IP is on Auto assign IP address, and auto dns.\n\nAnother thing that might make life easier to to make sure all the computers on the network share a common work group name.\n\nwindows XP and ME ARE compatiable... infact.. windows 95, 98, 98se, ME, xp home, xp pro, server.. etc are all compatiable.
