Can a landlord charge rent if you no longer live there?

You might wanna check the renters law in your state. But if he got a 30 day notice, and it was  a month to month rent agreement. He can't charge u rent at all. He should have started advertising the apartment when you gave him the notice. And advertising fees are his problem not yours. I say don't pay and if he insists tell him you will take him to small claims court. Or sometimes the city has a mediation department that resolves disputes like those. call your county clerk and find out.


what gives a twin the ability to sense the other twin?

While the baby or for this case the foetus is developing the it starts to use its receptive body mechanics. While this happens its when the determination of whether it will be a left handed or right handed occurs. \n\nThe foetus can think and explore its surrounding and even have the capability to detect the mothers voice vibrations. While the foetus moves around as in your case they become more close to one another to death since its depicted in their developing minds the early sence of oneness.\n\nGenerally the foetus as tiny as imagined at around 7-8 months all this happen. They even actually dream and yawn play listen and remember. This enables the brain complete the nervous connection and responce to stimulation.


why stick with a religion that is the main source of child molestation out there.?(not being hateful)?

If this is a serious question, then it deserves a serious answer.\n\nThe religion itself is not the source of the problem.\n\nThe problem lay very much with the institution of the church and its relationship with society.\n\nTo 'believe' and follow the religion requires a strong faith in teachings that cannot be proven by facts (even a google search won't help on this one!).\n\nA follower depends on the teachings of the church.  The church, in practicality, becomes the center of moral authority.\n\nSo, when someone with a human failing becomes a priest, he not just a priest, he is part of the moral authority mechanism.\n\nThere was (and in some cases still is) a huge misplaced loyalty to the institution of the church.\n\nAny challenge to the authority of the church was interpreted as a potential challenge to its position and therefore its teachings.\n\nIndividual children and parents were powerless to challenge the authority of the church.  Bishops and Cardinals faced the issues with total denial, or, even worse, simply moved the offenders to new areas to begin an new series of abuse.\n\n(You may recall an incident when the Irish singer Sinead O'Connor tore up a picture of the previous Pope on live TV (over the church child abuse issue), she was vilified for years afterwards - hardly anyone took any time to even ask what she was protesting about!  Radio stations and stores were too busy boycotting her music)  \n\nThe links that the church had in society often meant that a priest or Bishop could have a quiet word to the police, lawyers and judges to reassure them that the abuse was simply the figment of an overactive imagination.\n\nThis aspect reasonably explains the high abuse incidence.  The church, in effect, allowed its latent abusers to abuse, whereas out in society latent abusers were restrained by less opportunity and a far higher probability of being caught. \n\nHaving said all that, the situation has been turned around.  The lone voices built up into a giant roar and finally attracted the attention of very many church followers who genuinely did not understand what had gone on.  They have forced wholesale changes and cleared out the gatekeepers who were complict in hiding the abuse.\n\nWhy stick with the religion?  Well, if you believe in its teachings, then you believe that it is the right path to take.  Good did finally triumph over evil.\n\n(Having said all that, I didn't stick with the religion because it just doesn't ring true for me any more).

If the universe is expanding, then what is it expanding into?

Well there are lots of things I do not completely understand about the structure of the universe. \n\nFor example, some current theories are that our 4 dimensional space-time continuum is just part of a higher dimensional entity, where some of the other dimensions are rolled up. However, the time dimension of our 4 dimensional environment is clearly much different than the spatial dimensions, since we appear to only be able to travel in one direction along the time dimension, although many of the equations capturing the physical laws of our universe are invariant when we replace time with -time.\n\nThe expansion that people refer to when they say that the universe is expanding refers to the entire 4 dimensional space-time continuum and possibly some  of the other dimensions as well. This gets very hard to visualize. What I do is think of us as ants living on the surface of a balloon that is being slowly inflated, so the dimensions of the balloon are increasing, and distant parts of the ant's space are becoming increasingly distant. However, this is probably a very limited analogy. \n\nTo get a better picture, you need to consult someone who has thought very hard and very carefully about what the universe is, or supposedly is.

My employer is in NYC. I haven't been paid commissions in more than a year.?

Well I couldn't find an exact answer but according the department of Labor and Fair Labor Standards Act there is a two statute of limitations on collecting back pay but I am not sure how they handle commission based pay.  It does mention that the secretary of labor may bring suit for back wages and you can also file a private suit against your employer.  It doesn't specifically outline any requirements about back commission pay owed but here are a couple places to check, hope that helps some, \n\nThanks,\n\nKenny


what is the difference between PCI and PCI-Express?...If any?

PCI and PCI-Express are same in the sense that they both allow you to add functionality to your computer.  The only difference (to a consumer) is that one is much older than the other.  If PCI and PCI-Express were cars, PCI would be a 10-year old Honda while PCI-Express would be the current Hybrid-model Honda.  PCI-Express is faster/better/stronger than PCI.\n\nFor records-sake, AGP is also the same as PCI and PCI-Express except it's only use so far is for video cards.  Kind of limiting, really.  PCI-Express is currently in transition to replace AGP as the slot choice for video cards.  So video cards for PCI-Express tend to be a bit better than cards for AGP (the video card companies purposely choose to release the current higher-end cards for PCI-Express only)\n\nNow, given that, most newer computers that include PCI-Express will also include PCI slots.  Why is that if PCI is outdated?  Well, the answer is two-fold.  First, there are alot of PCI expansion cards in the market right now and not including PCI slots would severely limit the expansion capabilities of the computer.  For example, you can add a PCI wireless card, PCI TV tuner, PCI sound card, etc.  Second, PCI-Express is such a new technology that there are only PCI-Express video cards available.  It will be some time before PCI-Express truly replace PCI slots.

Yes, you can.

why USA is called by "Western" not "Eastern"? The earth is round anyway?

The term 'the West' is relative to human history, NOT an actual marker, such as the Prime Meridian or the hemispheres.  The meaning has changed from time to time, but the term 'West' today can be most closes traced back to maps of the Old World, on which the American continents did not exists and most of what we would consider our common European ancestry (England, Spain, etc) would have been on the 'western' edge of the map.  The term stuck as these powers expanded due to the simularities in languge and culture between the powers and their colonies (AKA the United States).  During the Cold War, the term 'the West' took on new meaning to mean those countries literally on the West side of the Iron Curtain (again America, Western Europe) and those on the East (Russia, China).  Today, the 'Western world' consists of all countries whose institutions, technology, material comfort, market systems, common western European ancestry and overall customs, dress and tastes are sufficiently simular to be grouped together (often called 'Western civilization').

what are pr skills exactly ?how  can i improve my pr skills?

depends\nwhat skills you need to develope?  office skills then join institute and hands on experience.\n\ndancing skill, love making skill, playing soccer skill, internet?\n\nPR skills \nPR skills vs. personal skills:\nWhat matters most to the boss? \n\nBy Catherine B. Ahles, APR, Fellow PRSA\n\nHave you ever wondered what it takes to impress that first employer? Stand out in your company and get ahead in your career? Or dazzle that especially tough boss, client or CEO?\n\nIf you think superior PR skills are the only requirement, think again. There are many skills beyond writing great copy, managing the media and planning a successful event that could mean the difference between survival and success on the job.\n\nAccording to a nationwide survey and interviews with senior PR practitioners around the country, success on the job also depends on well-developed human relations skills, sound work habits and several additional traits collectively known as "employability skills."\n\nThe survey, distributed to members of PRSA's Miami Chapter and PRSA's College of Fellows, assessed about 40 different proficiencies representing three skill sets: professional skills, work habits and human relations skills.\n\nThe interviews answered several questions, including: What distinguishes a good employee from a great one? What do employers look for when they hire people at entry, midcareer and senior levels? In the long term, what qualities count most? \n\nEmployability skills count\nEmployers have several expectations for recent college graduates. They expect them to have excellent oral and written communications skills, sound mathematical skills and a basic understanding of the science affecting the world around us - what academics call core academic skill areas. Graduates without proficiency in these areas will have difficulty finding a good job.\n\nIn addition, entry into the job market is contingent on having a set of professional skills. A degree in public relations, communications, journalism or advertising from an accredited program is one indication to a PR employer that a candidate has been exposed to the basic knowledge needed to do the job. Internships and an exceptionally well-done portfolio are other proofs of competency.\n\nBut there's a fifth set of skills - called employability skills - that are just as important for the recent college graduate, and they become more important as a person progresses in the PR field. \n\nThe need for employability skills cuts across all types of jobs at all levels in an organization. They are as crucial to the midcareer and senior practitioner as they are to the new professional. Depending on whom you ask, different skills rank at the top of the list - but the same half- dozen are always mentioned.\n\n"Employers seem to have no quarrel with the job skills of today's graduates, with the possible exception of their writing skills," says Rosanna M. Fiske, APR, president of Communique Group and a member of PRSA's board of directors. "A bigger issue is their nontechnical abilities."\n\nWhich nontechnical abilities are most critical? Among recruiters across the country participating in a recent survey, 90 percent rate communication and interpersonal skills as essential, while 87 percent rate ability to work in teams and 86 percent rate analytical and problem-solving skills as essential. Those nontechnical abilities also include personal reliability skills, such as personal management, maturity and ethics; adaptability skills, such as problem solving and career-development ability; and group and organizational effectiveness skills, such as interpersonal skills, organizational skills, negotiation skills, creativity and leadership.\n\nThe survey\nDuring the summer and early fall of 2003, a survey of PRSA's Miami Chapter, followed by a similar survey of the College of Fellows, determined which characteristics professionals believe are most essential to

Moisture improves heat penetration, making sterilization by moist heat more effective then dry heat. Killing microorganisms by dry heat is a lengthy process that requires high temperatures. On the other hand, most yeasts, molds, and bacteria can be killed using moist heat at 80°C for 10 minutes. These conditions are not sufficient to inactivate mold or bacteria spores, which are more heat-resistant than cells in their vegetative states.\n\nBacterial spores require exposure to moist heat at temperatures of 121°C (achieved under high-pressure conditions) for at least 15 minutes for inactivation. The "gold standard" for heat sterilizatin is inactivation of Bacillus stearothermophilus spores. If heat treatment was sufficient to inactivate test strips containing these spores, then the sterilization is considered successful.\n\nIt is important to note that there are rare types of bacteria which are capable of growing at high temperatures. These bacteria are classified as thermophiles and hyperthemophiles. Bacillus stearothermophilus is a thermophile. These organisms normally growth in unusually hot environments, including hot springs and deep-sea vents. Clearly sterilization by heat may not be the most efficient method to eliminate these types of bacteria, but they are almost never found in common environments.


Can anyone tell me the songs/tunes that i can play on guitar without singing and that sounds good.?


I have quit smoking.what kind of withdrawl symptoms can I expect?

Here are some things I've found from a website you could find very useful, and congratulations on your decision to quit smoking. I know it is not an easy one and I hope you have a good support structure around you to help you through it.\n\nCravings. Each one lasts 3 -5 minutes, and may be strong. Over time however, cravings will happen less often. More about cravings below.\n\nHeadaches (occasional), indigestion, nausea, diarrhoea and sore throats rarely last more than four days.\n\n      Try usual over the counter remedies for these symptoms.\n\nInsomnia and an increased tendency to dream.\n\n\n      Tea and coffee contain caffeine and, without nicotine, your body absorbs much more of this stimulant, which can make you restless, irritable and sleepless for a while.\n\n      Try drinking less tea and coffee, make your cups weaker.\n\n      Consider coffee substitutes, water, fruit juice and caffeine-free cola drinks.\n\nCoughing most commonly caused by the cilia that line your lungs cleaning out the tar and mucus.\n\nIrritability, depression or anxiety are closely connected to the physical action of nicotine leaving your body and will lessen over one to three weeks.\n\nIncreased appetite and possible weight gain.\n\nTiredness and lack of concentration.\n\n      Try and relax more during the first few weeks any tiredness will pass.\n\n      Take a break from what your doing and take a short walk if possible to help concentration.\n\nThe first few days after you quit can be the hardest.\n\nThe most problematic symptom tends to be cravings.\n\nFew smokers quit without getting cravings. If you want to succeed you must learn to get through them. The following tips should help:\n\n      Confront cravings head on and learn to 'overcome the urge to smoke at will through sheer determination'.\n\n      The choice to quit smoking and the responsibility for not smoking is yours alone.\n\n      Cravings only last 3- 5 minutes and they WILL subside. Once the urge to smoke has gone your resolve will strengthen.    \n\n      Focus on the reasons you decided to quit. Take a look at your quitting plan.\n\n      Take 3 or 4 deep breaths. Breathe in slowly through the nose and fill your lungs, then breathe out again slowly through the mouth.\n\n      Drink water. Sip it slowly and try to savour the taste. This will also help to satisfy any increased appetite.\n\n      Keep busy. Take your mind off smoking by going for a walk, doing an odd job around the home or in the garden or call a friend or relative on the phone


It depends on how the person's style of playing the game is, like attacking, defending or pushes. It also is different as different people have different likes.

Lewis Carroll wrote "Enquiries have been so often addressed to me, as to whether any answer to the Hatter's Riddle can be imagined, that I may as well put on record here what seems to me to be a fairly appropriate answer, viz: `Because it can produce a few notes, tho they are very flat; and it is never put with the wrong end in front!' This, however, is merely an afterthought; the Riddle, as originally invented, had no answer at all."


Long story short : https://edit.yahoo.com/config/delete_user\n\nTwo ways to delete your Yahoo Account\n\n(1) Get it deleted by inactivity\n(2) Terminate your account manually\n\nFor the first method, just don't login to your account for 4 months, and your account gets deleted. But the waiting period is quiet long. It is a good policy by Yahoo, as it helps maintain an accurate number of users. I remember, when Hotmail used to brag about in its initial days about its huge userbase, most of its accounts were never used by users(who had registered themselves to get a taste of what email is called). Yahoo always gave an accurate picture. Also, for common usernames like amitgupta, emmacooper, etc which are never available (due to large no of people having these names), a chance is available to the new users to get such usernames from users who are inactive( which generally have to be registered as emmacooper1232005 due to unavailability)\n\nFor the second method, I gave you the link above. The advantage is that your account is terminated instantaneously. You can read the explaination at http://help.yahoo.com/help/us/edit/edit-23.html

How can ulcer be controlled from becoming serious?

Many stomach ulcers are considered to be caused by a bacteria, H. pylori, and are often treated using both oral and injected antibiotics to irradicate the bacteria which reside on the surface and within the stomach lining.  Competent medical doctors (specialists?) can determine the cause of an ulcer and its proper treatment.  It is not wise to wait too long because the disease can progress.  Good luck.

Why do some clocks go "tick tock" and some go "tick tick"?

The collision between a pendulum and 2 surfaces of the same material with symetrical surroundings will generate a similar sound. (tick tick)  If you make the material that the pendulum hits different (or to a lesser degree the material attached to the material the pendulum strikes) you change the sound.  Thus, tick tock.\n\nSounds are vibrations that hit the ear and are transmitted by electrical impulses to the brain for interpretation.  If you change the vibration's (different material vibrate at different frequencies) frequency(high/low pitch) and/or amplitude (sound level) you change the sound.\n\nA tick I believe is a higher freqency than a tock.\nHit the pendulum against a surface harder and the amplitude of the sound wave will increase, thus sounding louder.


Did George W. Bush have a Bin Laden for a business partner in oil?


Does debris affect a tornadoes wind speed?

The funnel of a tornado is actually clear.  The only way we actually see the tornado is because of the debris that is circulating inside the funnel.  The wind speed of the tornado will not increase because of debris.  Debris can only be a hinderance to a tornado.  To help you think about this, think about a very large piece of debris, lets say a mountain.  Now while the mountain is not going to be picked up and tossed around like dirt, cows, trucks and some houses, it is still something that is getting in the way of a tornado.  The mid-west experiences far more tornadoes than any other region.  This is because they are uninhibited from forming.  Basically the more you put in the way of the funnel the more difficult it will be for that funnel (aka the tornado) to form.  To put it on a level that everyone can relate to, think of your toilet.  When you flush the toilet the water starts to swirl.  A funnel begins to appear in the water and eventually everything goes away.  What happens if there is too much TP(debris) in the way?  The funnel never forms and you get a clog.  I hope this helps.


We in the military work for civilian bosses that are appointed by the President and approved by Congress.  The President gives the orders, but Congress controls the budget.   It's the people's money that funds us after all. Furthermore, we are an extension of the government's political strength, often used to secure geopolitical goals rather than strictly to defend our country. As such, we will never be free of political machinations.


This is from the book "The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy" by Douglas Adams.  \n\n     The people of some planet wanted to find the answer to the question "what is the meaning of life, the universe, and everything?".  So they built a giant computer called 'Deep Thought'.  And this computer thought about this for about 10 Billion years, and then announced that it had found an answer.  When everyone was gathered around, the computer announced that the answer to life, the universe, and everything was '42'.  It then announced that what really needed to be found was not an answer but a question.  So another bigger computer was built, and for the rest of the story I suggest reading the books.  They are very funny, and just about anybody will laugh at them.\n\n     Well thats my answer.  Hope you like it.\nTed


What website could I use to find about whick food help clean ur teeth?

Actually I have heard somewhere that "chedder cheese has enzymes that are not bad for you teeth .\nI am not certain about cleansing them.But good old\nfashioned h2O (Water)is probably about the best.\nFlouride is a chemically active mineral that comes from simply certain "rocks"..Salt of course is \nnot considered a food but is good for mouth cleansing and healing.Any food that easily decomposes and creates bacteria is generally not good for your teeth.But as humans we once in "prehistoric"times were some catagorized more then others as herbivores or carnivores.Herbivore\nmeaning plant eaters and carnivore meaning meat eaters,(basically)Some people were more "plant eaters then others and had less wear and tear on\nor about their teeth,Carnivores on the otherhand \nwere meat eaters and had more wear and tear on their teeth.Therefore the "herbivores teeth were generally healthier.But neither is true "good old\nfashioned brushing your teeth with a small amount of toothpaste cleanser regularly would have made\nthe herbevores or carnivores pretty much equally the same in modern dental health.BUt the reason\nwhy carnivores teeth were worse than herbivores is only because meat is tougher than green leaves .

i like both.  i usually buy/sell things on ebay that are easy to ship.  i always check craigslist for things i'd like to buy, because it's quicker to pick up something than have to wait for the seller to ship it.  and if it's something large, then you don't have to pay for shipping on craigslist!!  craigslist is great for bartering also.  i received a bunch of gift cards for christmas which i was able to trade people for gift cards they too received that they didn't want.  everyone was happy...


how do i stop a loved one from drinking too much soda?

Tell them that it's not helping their body get liquid. Soda actually dehydrates the drinker, which is what made me stop drinking so frequently. \n\nA can of Coke can dissolve a nail in a week. o_o Can you imagine what it does to the body? \n\nAnd there are a lot of other options in beverages, even though it may not seem like it. Water, for one. It's the most abundant source on our planet, yet we seem to neglect it's most simple use. Drinking it. \n\nSports drinks hydrate the body. Fruit juice. (Not the ones with all the sugar and artificial stuff added.)Nearly ANYTHING is better than soda.

How hard is it to make a list 'printable'?

It depends on how they store their lists, but it should not be too difficult to present the information in a "printable" format.  Some HTML massaging of the data.\n\nYahoo's issue may be how much customization.  While you may prefer a particular layout, others may prefer something else.  If Yahoo! Movies is infrequently visited compared to other features (such as games, chat, etc.) they may be focusing their resources at enhancing those features first, leaving less resources for items like Yahoo! Movies.  Even relatively big companies like Yahoo! have only so many developers to go around, and printing a movie list may not be at the top of the overall list, regardless of how difficult or simple it is.\n\nAlso, Since Yahoo! Movies is available as a web page, you can simply print it from your web browser.  How is this any different from what you're asking for?


Isn't eternal damnation a tad excessive?

I can understand your point of view, however, eternity is not something to look at as being fair or unfair. If we choose, here on this physical time frame, that we do not want anything to do with God, then God will give you an eternity without ANY of His light, love or presence. Now, if we DO want eternity in His light, then He has made it free and easy to come to Him. If you refuse the free gift, then you will only have yourself to blame. God says this place exists, and He does NOT want you to go there.\n\n2 Peter 3:9\nThe Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance.\n\n__________________________________________\nAdditional Details\n\nAs scientists and intellectuals, they are even more without excuse. To look at the complexities that is the DNA code and the human machine, or just watching a Cheetah run. To sum it all up to random mutation over millions of years is just ludicrous. Newton was a genius, but he also highly esteemed the Bible and embraced the gospel message. Many aquaintances of mine have IQs in the 180s (I asked their wives) that can run rings around many of these scientists, yet have found that the Bible is an intricate message system from beyond time and space, and have documented this. The Bible says, to whom much is given much is required, so these higher thinkers will be without excuse on that day. Especially if only one Bible has been made available for them to check and confirm. Here are some articles by my aquaintances I refered to: http://www.khouse.org/articles_cat/2006/technical/

What happened in Munich,Germany in 1972?

The summer Olympic games, during which Arab terrorists belonging to the PLO faction called Black September snuck into the athletes village, captured nine Israeli hostages and after their demands for the freedom of 200 Arab prisoners and safe passage out of Germany were not met, they accepted a deal to take helicopters to the airport at a NATO airbase, where they and the hostages would be flown to Cairo.\n\nAfter the helicopters landed at the air base around 10:30 p.m., German sharpshooters attempted to kill the terrorists and a bloody firefight ensued. At 11, the media was mistakenly informed that the hostages had been saved and the news was announced to a relieved Israeli public. Almost an hour later, however, new fighting broke out and one of the helicopters holding the Israelis was blown up by a terrorist grenade. The remaining hostages in the second helicopter were shot to death by one of the surviving terrorists.\n\nAt 3 a.m., a drawn and teary-eyed Jim McKay, who had been reporting the drama throughout the day as part of ABC's Olympic coverage, announced: "They're all gone."\n\nFive of the terrorists were killed along with one policeman, and three were captured. A little over a month later, on Oct. 29, a Lufthansa jet was hijacked by terrorists demanding that the Munich killers be released.\n\nThe Germans capitulated and the terrorists were let go, but an Israeli assassination squad was assigned to track them down along with those responsible for planning the massacre. According to George Jonas in Vengeance: The True Story of an Israeli Counter-Terrorist Team, eight of the 11 men targeted for death were killed. Of the remaining three, one died of natural causes and the other two were assassinated, but it is not known for sure if they were killed by Israeli agents.


Have they really passed a law forcing people to pay a higher minimum on credit card bills? If so, what %?

You are correct.  The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency has mandated that banks will charge credit card holders a minimum payment of at least 4% of your balance.\n\nWhile this change has been in the works for some time, many banks will begin implementing it soon.  Here's a link from a story in the Cleveland Plain Dealer about the new policy:


Is there really a God or is just a creation of the human being to instill some order in the society?

God does exist.\nThere are many natural phenomenon which have not been yet discovered by man,nor doe we really know how those that exist come about.\nSome theories have been successfully proven, others , only time will tell.\nSome atheists claim that this universe is in existence from ever and it will last for ever. If this universe is in existence from ever, then it must have infinite source of power and energy, but we see that no material thing is infinite in this universe. The temperature of Sun is falling down, even the earth is cooling off. All the sources of energy in this universe are being consumed up and exhausting. So the world is approaching to its end as was prophesied by all the religions. It proves that the universe came into being a finite time ago and it also has a definite end. We know from our whole life's experience, that if we consider any process, there are only two possibilities, that a process is either started by some human beings, or it might be a result of some other process. If we move back in this tree of processes which are a result of some other process, ultimately we shall come across a process, which could not be attributed to any other process. At that place, we are left with no other argument, except to believe that it was started by some Super being. We refer to that super being as 'GOD', some atheists call this Super Being by the name of 'nature'. Actually just giving a different name to this Super Being really does not make much difference, they believe in GOD, and all they need is just a little fine tuning.


How can we use a robot to sew something?

"Robot" comes from Czech robota meaning compulsory service, work (Webster).  Now it means any automatic device that performs functions ordinarily ascribed to human beings, or operates with seemingly human intelligence.  Because sewing was once performed by skilled seamstresses, sewing machines are robots.  Certain plays and movies romanticised the idea that "robots" look and act like people but most "robots" in an automobile plant look like sophistocated machines.  Of course, some day robots that look like people may be programmed to sew.

Facts:\n\n1) King Kong stands at about 25 feet tall. This is about 4.5 times larger than a regular gorilla.\n\n2) A normal gorilla's penis is only 2 inches long\n\n\nPut that together and you can figure out that King Kong's penis is only 9 inches long. Small enough to be covered by whatever fur is there.

How do I encrypt my wireless router so that strangers wont connect to it?

There are different ways of securing your wireless network.  The most common methods are by using WEP or WPA-based authentication and encryption.  However, the steps to add security to your wireless network depends on the wireless router you are using.  Usually, the wireless router manufacturers provide software discs and manuals to do so.  Even if you don't have a manual, browse the software installation CD which might have come with your router, it usually contains a .pdf file for instructions.  If you have misplaced your disc, you can access their website or call the tech support of the wireless router manufacturer for detailed instructions on securing the network.

Hey, just bringing this old question up for a vote.


Coriolis Fairy is a myth about the Coriolis Force wherein it is believed that in the northern hemisphere, water goes down the toilet clockwise. And it twirls counterclockwise in the southern hemisphere.\n\nTechnically speaking, the Coriolis is not even a real force, but a fictitious one resulting from a rotating frame of reference. It's an apparent deviation caused by the inertia of an object traveling above the earth's surface while the planet spins eastward below; it's fictitious in the sense that if the globe were not spinning, there would be no deviation. This effect was first described by nineteenth-century French mathematician Gustave-Gaspard Coriolis, who evidently became interested in the motion of rotating bodies after writing "The Mathematical Theory of the Game of Billiards."\n\nTo understand why it works, imagine that you are looking down at the globe from above. The earth would look like an old-fashioned vinyl record player, with the North Pole for the axis. At the center, the record moves so slowly that it appears to stand still, while at the far edge the record is traveling quickly, where it has more distance to cover in each revolution. Similarly, at the equator, the earth is moving from west to east at 1,040 miles per hour, while at the latitude of Long Island it is moving closer to 700 miles per hour.

how would i use mandering in ten sentences?

Well, meandering is a word used to describe a wandering pointless way.  Sometimes meandering is used to describe a physical course, or at other  times meandering is used to describe a thought process. As long as we are talking about meandering I should mention that people can meander as well as objects.  Slow moving streams are sometimes described as meandering.  A drunk on the sidewalk, stumbling and staggering is meandering.  This drunk could also be said to be meandering through life with no purpose.    Meandering is also a word to be studied.  I would study "meandering", first as an adjective as in the methods previously used to described people, rivers, etc.  Second, I would us meandering as a gerund noun as in "meandering is fun".  Lastly I would create a paragraph that described the word meandering in 10 sentences, no more, no less.


Whats the best way to get rid of a headcold? The fastest?

I tried ZINC.

I was tired, my sinesses (sp, again) began to fill up... I had to go back to bed.\nMore ZINC, gone again.  Maybe I just got lucky.\nBigBadJohnny

What is the difference between affect and effect?

The confusion of these terms is one of my pet peeves! Affect is most commonly a verb, meaning "to influence", where effect is a result (noun). Affect can also mean emotion and is commonly used in the psych fields. (i.e. flat affect=no emotion registered on the face). \n\nRepeat after me, folks: "I can AFFECT the EFFECT!"\n\nA RARE use of effect as a verb means "to bring about or create", but again, that is quite rare.\n\nexample sentences: \nIf I drink too much tonight, it will really AFFECT my test taking ability tomorrow morning.\n\nHis wiley charms had no EFFECT on me.\n\nThe lack of rain fall has really AFFECTED the growth of our crops.\n\nThe lack of rain fall has had a lasting EFFECT on the growth.


Depending on where you are camping, you may be able to get by with a fleece liner, a down throw blanket, or a sheet, any of which can be found in a discount store. All of which are under 20 bucks. Or you can just pack a cool weather pair of PJs or sleep in your clothes or bring an old blanket from home.\n\nIf you need anything warmer in the summer, you should be able to get by with ANY low budget bag from a discount store. They aren't too hard to pick out. Your basic 40-50 degree bag. \n\nThere are a lot of variables to picking out a sleeping bag. If none of your needs are that extreme, then it isn't such a dilemma. But if you need lightweight, compressible, easy to hike with, AND roomy, warm, durable, then you are certainly going to pay for it. That's when you need to turn to a reputable brand of backpacking gear and you will get what you pay for, including high performance fabrics and insulations. Otherwise you end up with a very warm sleeping bag that weighs 12 lbs or a very light sleeping bag that falls apart in your hand. You will always have to compare and balance the things you want out of your bag. You will not find a 40 below bag that fits in the palm of your hand and lasts for 10 years in the arctic expeditions, and costs 50 dollars. \n\nCheck Walmart for any of these items above, or if you want a "real" camping bag (beware crappy zippers) try Slumberjack, very low budget yet official camping gear. Kelty makes better sleeping bags, and other manufacturers can really set you up nice. However, you just don't need that kind of technology in the summer.\n\nOne thing to consider when buying any camping gear is that, in addition to the brand of the piece you choose, it is important to choose a reputable retailer that stands behind their products. Kind of like appliances. You can buy a Kenmore washer at Sears with a warranty, or you can buy the same item from Joe Schmo on Ebay and you are stuck with it if it is a lemon. One of the best retailers in the camping biz is Campmor (great online selection), and another is REI. \n\nDon't forget with your summer sleep setup...that you need a mosquito net.

What is the best home-based internet business with the best pay and least amount of hours?

To say which is the best and pays the most for the least amount of time is impossible to answer by picking just one type of business. However, there are great amounts of money being made on the internet each and every day.

close to retirement - pay off mortgage or keep mortgage?

Assuming you can pay it off in a lump sum, what would the cost be?  I.E.  Is that money just sitting, or is it invested and what is the return on that investment?\n\nIf you are talking about taking money from a savings account to pay it off, a savings account that is somewhat set asside for retire use, maybe the real question should be, is it time to move?\n\nIf it is, due to retirement, fixing up the house should be top priority, and investigating what you can get to replace it.\n\nIf you do decide to move, the mortgage will be paid off once you sell, and so paying it off is rather irrelevant if you have a quick sale.\n\nIf you are staying forever, really depends on your interest rate, and what you are getting in a return with your invested funds (assuming they are invested).  I know a friend had a rate of 2.75% FEMA loan and he thought he would be more secure paying it off.  He was getting 5.14 on his invested (SECURE) savings account.  Of course HE should not pay it off, because he was making more money by paying on the mortgage.  It all depends on your situation.  Let's assume your investment is a wash with your interest payments.  Having liquid capital is always better than having to go out and get a loan when money is needed.  First, the loan may take a lot of time, 2nd the loan may cost you fees, and 3rd, waiting for the loan could cost you the opportunity that you needed the money for.  The old saying, CASH is KING seems to come to mind here.\n\nOn the other hand, if you are paying 7.14%, while your invested funds are earning you only 2.14--you are losing money without a doubt.  And if you have a 2nd mortgage at even higher rates, need I repeat?\n\nMaybe, you are saying you are going to be able to draw on retirement funds (penalty/tax free) in the very near future.  If this is the case, and again the funds are not outproducing the interest costs, clearly, pay off the mortgage.\n\nHope this helps...

greek army what did they do, how did they fight, what did they fight with in the old days?

Warfare in Ancient Greece centered mainly around heavy infantrymen called hoplites. The word hoplite (Greek ὁπλίτης, hoplitēs) derives from hoplon (ὅπλον, plural hopla, ὅπλα) meaning an item of armour or equiment and consequently the entire equipment of the hoplite (but not specifically the circular shield, which is sometimes incorrectly referred to as a hoplon, though it was in fact called an aspis). These soldiers probably first appeared in the late 8th century BC. These were a citizen-militia, and so were armed as spearmen, which are relatively easy to equip and maintain; mainly they represented the middle class, who could afford the cost of the armaments. Almost all the famous men of ancient Greece, even the philosophers and playwrights, fought as hoplites at some point in their lives.\n\nHow did they fight?\nSince the hoplites were a militia force and did not receive permanent wages, campaigns were short and mainly confined to the summer. Armies marched directly to their target. There the defenders could hide behind city walls, in which case the attackers generally had to content themselves with ravaging the countryside as siegecraft was undeveloped, or meet them on the field. Battles were usually set piece and intended to be decisive. Both forces lined up on a level field, usually in a rough phalanx formation around eight ranks deep (though this varied). Other troops were less important; cavalry generally protected the flanks, when present at all, and both light infantry and missile troops were negligible.\n\nWith what did they fight?\nHoplites generally armed themselves immediately before battle, since the equipment was so heavy. Each man provided his own gear so it was fairly non-uniform, and often friendly troops would fail to recognise one another. A hoplite typically had a breastplate, a bronze helmet with cheekplates, as well as greaves and other armor, plus a bowl-shaped wooden shield called an aspis which was around 1 metre across. The primary weapon was a spear, around 2.7 metres in length; as this frequently broke upon charging and was unwieldy for close combat, hoplites also carried a smaller 60 cm thrusting sword called a xiphos. The total cost of the hoplon was roughly equivalent to a middle-sized car in our time.

Why is Picric Acid so unstable as a crystal form?

2,4,6- Trinitrophenol is unstable as a solid - it is shock sensative.  That is because having three nitrogroups on the aromatic ring is high in energy.  The instability is so great that bumping it or dropping it, etc. causes an explosion.  This reactivity is similar to that of 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (commonly known as TNT or dynamite).


My 5 yearold son keeps saying he wants to be a girl.  How do i handle this?

Pray for him while you are alone. Do not over-react. Five years old is pretty young. Best to ask him why. It may be that he likes their toys or they have more fun in some ways. Reassure him that God made him a boy for a very important reason. Ask him what that purpose may be? Ask him in such a way as, "Oh really?" or "I see." If he gets a highly emotional reaction from you, he will continue to use it to push your buttons and get the attention he craves.\nI'd walk out the door and yell out...\n"Son, I'm going to an automobile/train museum, want to come along?"

Is Callaway a reliable brand for golf clubs?

Reliable, in terms of durability they are great. They have some of the best over-sized clubs on the market. If you are still a beginner in golf it is not worth the initial investment.  With some skill a nice set of clubs is worth buying.  Callaway is one to mention but do keep in mind not all of their clubs are tour rated.

Leather is probably healthier for you.  Synthetic shoes are sold because they're healthier on the wallet and, for vegetarians, on the animal kingdom.\n\nBut in terms of foot health, leather has it all over synthetics.

This is in general a complicated question, but I will try to give you a couple of ideas about where to start. \n\nOne method is the method of parallax; if you hold your finger in front of your face, and move your head back and forth, the apparent motion of the scene behind your finger relative to your finger tells you something about the relative distances involved. If you know how far you moved your head, you know even more. \n\nAnother method uses the doppler principle and Hubble's law. Stars that are moving away from us end up with their colors being shifted towards the red end of the spectrum. Stars moving towards us have their colors shifted towards the blue end of the spectrum by the Doppler effect. Hubble's law, which has been verified a few ways, is that the faster a star is moving away from us, the further away it is. \n\nAnother thing that goes into these estimates are the laws of gravity and motion, like Kepler's laws. We assume that the objects we are looking at have to obey these physical laws (or sometimes more accurate ones like those stemming from general relativity).\n\nOf course, sometimes mistakes are made and later information forces scientists to revise their estimates. But hopefully after a few years, the estimates about distances in space become more and more accurate.

OMG girl!!!!!!!! I LUV THEM! They rock, and Pee Wee is SO HOT, and FINE!!! i confess i have a huge crush on him 2! but dont get jealous, lol


Please tell me what the pattern's formula is & whats the next #?  13 14 6 7 12 8 16 9 13 10 15 11 12 23 6 1 2

This sequence is usually written in roman numerals, and each term has a name associated with it, thus:   Clement XIII, Clement XIV, Pius VI, Pius VII, Leo XII, Pius VIII, Gregory XVI, Pius IX, Leo XIII, St. Pius X, Benedict XV, Pius XI, Pius XII, John XXIII, Paul VI, John Paul I, John Paul II.  Ie the popes since 1758.\n\nSo the next is (Benedict) XVI = 16

Anarchism, by definition, is lack of government, or doing things for your self/community without dependence on social contracts. As soon as you form a community structure, you become communist, socialist, democratic or some other -ist, no longer anarchist.\nHard to do.\nMany people (usually those entrenched in some power structure: corporations, government, religions) try to use the term 'anarchist' as though it is synonymous with 'terrorist'. They are usually the same ones who think atheism is a religion. (NOT believing in something is not the same as believing in nothing.) \nIn other words, the majority.\n"Anarchy is a bad thing?"

when flying from 1 place 2 1 place just opposite in hemisphere,eastwards & westwards who will reach 1st& Why?

Wind direction/resistance would be a factor, but if we disregard the wind and the planes are running at the same airspeed, the one heading westward would theoretically have a shorter flight.  This is because the Earth's rotation is eastward.  So as the plane flies westward toward it's destination, that city is also moving eastward toward the plane.  The opposite is true for the plane heading eastward.  It's destination is also moving eastward away from the plane.  While there wouldn't be much difference, the westward plane should make the flight a little more quickly.


I can't get a woman pregnant but should I still use a condom?

If it's ok with her, then fine. But if ever you two break up, and one day you find another girl willing to do it with you, don't second guess it--use a condom. Thousands of people catch STD's everyday without even knowing it. Like that one person said, "better safe than sorry."

can someone explain the cell cycle to me in english please....?

The cell cycle, or cell division cycle, is the cycle of events in a eukaryotic cell from one cell division to the next. It consists of interphase, mitosis, and usually cell division. The cell cycle is regulated by cyclins and cyclin-dependent kinases. Leland H. Hartwell, R. Timothy Hunt, and Paul M. Nurse won the 2001 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for their discovery of these central molecules in the regulation of the cell cycle.\nThe phases of the cell cycle are:\n\nThe G0 phase is a period in the cell cycle where cells exist in a quiescent state. \nThe G1 phase is the first growth phase. \nS phase, during which the DNA is replicated, where S stands for the Synthesis of DNA. \nG2 phase is the second growth phase, also the preparation phase for the cell. \nM phase or mitosis and cytokinesis, the actual division of the cell into two daughter cells. \nA surveillance system, so-called "checkpoints", monitor the cell for DNA damage and failure to perform critical processes. Checkpoints can block progression through the phases of the cell cycle if certain conditions are not met. For instance, there is a checkpoint which monitors DNA replication and keeps cells from proceeding to mitosis before DNA replication is completed. Similarly, the spindle checkpoint blocks the transition from metaphase to anaphase within mitosis if not all chromosomes are attached to the mitotic spindle.\n\nIf this system senses a problem, a network of signaling molecules instructs the cell to stop dividing. They can let the cell know whether to repair the damage or initiate programmed cell death, a form of which is called apoptosis. Programmed cell death ensures that the damaged cell is not further propagated. For example, a certain protein, called p53, acts to accept signals provoked by DNA damage. It responds by stimulating the production of inhibitory proteins that then halt the DNA replication process. Without proper p53 function, DNA damage can accumulate unchecked. A direct consequence is that the damaged gene progresses into a cancerous state. Today, defects in p53 are associated with a variety of cancers, including some breast and colon cancers.\n\nSome cells, such as neurons, never divide once they become locked in a G0 phase. However, recent data has shown that neurons undergoing cell death re-enter the cell cycle. Addition of cell cycle inhibitors prevent this type cell death called apoptosis.

imagine travelling in car (Question on Relative Motion)?

einstein's theory of relativity.  in the frame of reference of the car, you are stationary, the fly is stationary, and everything else in the car or moving with the car is stationary. this is why if you are in a car and drop a book onto the seat, it goes straight down, not toward the back. it is going at the same speed as the car and therefore is still relative to the car. there is no force acting on it to make it behave otherwise.  that's why you don't feel anything in a car unless you're accelerating or decelerating. so you feel like you're pushed forward when the car is coming to a sudden stop. because then there's a force stopping the car, and therefore you, so you feel it. in this case, the fly would also go flying(no pun intended) to the front of the car.\n\nif this is still unclear, think of the earth. the earth is rotating with a speed of over 1000 m/s, but you don't feel it. that's because you're moving at that same speed, you're stationary relative to the earth so you feel stationary because your frame of reference is the earth.

Did you mean Scarlet fever??\n\nScarlet fever is a rash accompanied by a sore throat caused by the streptococcus bacteria.\n\nThe disease most commonly affects children, but can occur in any age group. The characteristic symptoms are a rash and a 'strawberry tongue'. The disease is treated with antibiotics and it is usually resolved without complications.\n\nA person can become infected with streptococcus either by touching or through airborne droplets. Scarlet fever appears together with a streptococcal sore throat. The incubation period - the time that passes from infection until the outbreak of the disease - is two to four days.\n\nsymptoms\nA sore throat. \n\n\nA temperature. \n\n\nHeadache. \n\n\nFeeling generally unwell. \n\n\nA rash that develops within 12 hours of the onset and rapidly becomes generalised. \n\n\nThe face is spared, but cheeks are flushed, and the child looks 'scarlet' except for the area around the mouth. \n\n\nThe rash fades after a few days, or sooner if treatment with antibiotics is given, following which the skin undergoes peeling. \n\n\nThe tongue has a thick, white coating that peels after four or five days, producing a red strawberry appearance. \n\n\nGood advice \n\n\nWhen the symptoms appear consult a GP. \n\n\nPain on swallowing may be eased by hot drinks and soft food. \n\n\nGive the patient plenty of fluids.

My dad has endstage liver/kidney failure with encepholopathy. What can I expect?

Hi-\nFrom what I hear, liver failure sounds like a tough thing to suffer. I had a kidney transplant and have spent some time on a transplant message board.

The Acts of Pilate (Latin Acta Pilati) which formed the nucleus of the medieval Gospel of Nicodemus, is a book of the New Testament apocrypha.\n\nThe oldest sections of the book appear first in Greek. There are multiple parts to it, which are uneven in style and would seem to be by different hands, but the oldest section probably dates to the fourth century (see below). An appended text purports to be a written report made by Pontius Pilate to Claudius, containing a description of the crucifixion—by which, "Pilate" observes, "the Jews through envy have punished themselves and their posterity with fearful judgements of their own fault"— and an account of the resurrection of Jesus, presented as if an official report [1]. It is found in the Greek Acts of Peter and Paul and as an appendix to the Latin Gospel of Nicodemus but there is no intrinsic relation between the independent texts.\n\nThe Acts of Pilate itself does not purport to have been written by Pilate, but instead to have been derived from the official acts preserved in the praetorium at Jerusalem. An alleged "Hebrew" original is pseudepigraphically attributed to Nicodemus, hence the title Gospel of Nicodemus that the text gained in the Middle Ages, when this strictly legendary apocryphon had wide credit as historical fact. It had a considerable effect upon folk Christianity, and in some quarters, it still does. Its popularity is attested by the number of languages in which it exists, each in several manuscript traditions, or "editions".\n\nOne series of Latin manuscripts includes as an appendix or continuation, the episode "Cura Sanitatis Tiberii", the oldest form of the Veronica legend, according to the Catholic Encyclopedia, in which Emperor Tiberius is cured of his malady. Compare the legend of the Image of Edessa.\n\nThe main body of Acta Pilati is in two sections, with an appendix, Descensus ad Infernos—the Harrowing of Hell—that does not exist in the Greek texts, and is a later addition to the Latin versions. The first (chapters i–xi) contains the trial of Jesus based upon Luke 23. The second part (xii–xvi)regards the Resurrection. In it, Leucius and Charinus, the two souls raised from the dead after the Crucifixion, relate to the Sanhedrin the circumstances of Our Lord's descent to Limbo. A literature of miracle-tale Romance developed around "Leucius Charinus" as author. The Harrowing of Hell episode depicts St Dismas accompanying Jesus in Hell, and the deliverance of the righteous Old Testament patriarchs.\n\nThe well-informed Church historian Eusebius of Caesarea (writing ca 325), although he mentions Acta Pilati referred to by Justin and Tertullian and other non-canonical Acts, shows no acquaintance with this work. "We are forced to admit that is of later origin, and scholars agree in assigning it to the middle of the fourth century" (Catholic Encyclopedia). Epiphanius refers to an Acta Pilati (ca 376), but the Extant Greek texts show evidence of later editing.\n\nThough the Acta Pilati purports to be a report by Pontius Pilate containing evidence of Jesus Christ's messiahship and godhead, yet there is no record in early Christian lore of Pilate's conversion to Christianity, it seems unlikely that the work was ever meant to have been taken seriously by Christians. Its purpose, instead, was to offer further conjectural details about the life of Christ as a pious entertainment, part of a larger body of Pilate literature.

Both incidents are true. You can pick the nicest one of the two.


Is it true that certain people within the government masterminded 9-11?

Every person has to look at the evidence and judge for themselves.\nThe 9/11 commission had a lot more to say than just Bush's people didn't do it. There was some things that seemed suspicous to them as well. Not just the "conspiracy theorists". That's what you call labeling intimidation. Like Non-patriots, those folks who question Bush's handling of just about everything since he's been in office. Apparently some trigger-happy-labelers forgot that we have the right as US citizens to question or government right up to the top. But wait these are the same folks who believe our rights should only be upheld when it suits the guy riding in Air Force One.\n\nLook at the footage, closely. Check out the so called "conspiracy theorist"'s movies like Fahrenheit 9/11.\nFor my tastes there are too many friends and relatives in the immediate vicinity of what happened for it just to be a co-ink-e-dink.\nPlus he wanted a war from the time he got in office, nothing stimulates the economy better, and it certainly made him a people's president when he "stood up" for America; he certainly wasn't going to earn that title with all the infrastructure work he was doing or building a better domestic policy (guess that would've been too much like work and we all know he likes month long vaca's at the Ranch).\n\nI don't suggest you believe everything you read or hear from start to finish, but look with your own eyes, and be prepared to be very disappointed with what's happened to your homeland.


state the principles of electronic configuration?

1. The Aufbau principle: Orbitals are occupied in order of increasing energy. 1s<2s<2p<3s<3p<4s<3d<4p<5s<4d<5p<6s<4f<5d<6p<7s<5f<6d\n\n2. The Pauli exclusion principle: Only two electrons can ocoupy an orbital and they must have opposite spin.\n\n3. Hund's rule: When there are degenerate orbitals, one electron is added to each with their spins parallel until all are half full. Then a second electron with opposite spin is added to each degenerate orbital. (See below)\n\n(Basically every space/box/circle must have an arrow pointing up before any space/box circle can have one pointing down.)\n(Everyone gets one before anyone gets two.)

It depends on what kind of nurse you are.  Unilike doctors, nurses do not specialize until after graduation.  In general, in the hospital environment, nurses monitor and assess the patients and inform doctors of any changes or complications.  Doctors write orders, and nurses carry out those orders.  Things such as medication administration, dressing changes, inserting IVs and catheters, drawing blood and the like.  Nurses are the front line.  We spend the most time with patients, know when things are going wrong, and are the first responders in an emergency.  Nurses also serve as advocates for their patients, and spend a great deal of time planning the best care, and teaching a patient and their family on diagnoses, and health maintancence.  I love being a nurse!

Does anyone believe in intelligent design theory?

No. In fact, the whole point of Intelligent Design is merely to cause a public debate on evolution. The fact is that Intelligent Design starts with a conclusion (Creationism), then works out a package which was designed to be school-friendly, and provide "evidence" which might trick people who are unfamiliar with the real science of the situation. The ID movement's claims that ID is intended to be non-specific in its creator is revealed by the Wedge document to be a lie.


Is there a legitimate work-at-home business that is cheap to start and pays around $250 a week?

Most people who work at home and are successful are doing one of two things - getting paid a commission on everyone they convince to join the program (also known as MLM or pyramid plans) OR they have their own business. Your own business is something you create yourself, not find on the internet. You create it based on your skills, your passions not on what someone else tells you is the GREATEST thing going.\n\nIf you are looking at one of the endless "opportunities" out there be careful - most are scams. Here are a few questions you should ask to help figure out if the one you are looking at is for real or not.\n\nLegitimate work-at-home program should tell you - in writing - what's involved in the program they are selling. Here are some questions you might ask:\n\n* What tasks will I have to perform? (Ask the program to list every step of the job.)\n* Will I be paid a salary or will my pay be based on commission?\n* Who will pay me?\n* When will I get my first paycheck?\n* What is the total cost of the work-at-home program, including supplies, equipment and membership fees?\n* What will I get for my money?


A control system is a device or set of devices that manage the behavior of other devices.A control system is an interconnection of components connected or related in such a manner as to command, direct, or regulate itself or another system.\n\nThere are two common types of controllers, with many variations and combinations: logic controls, and feedback or linear controls. There is also fuzzy logic, which attempts to combine the easy design of logic with the real-world utility of feedback controls.

why thermal energy is added at one point and remove for another, in the process distillation?

Thermal energy is added to provide the heat of vaporization for the material you want to distill. Once it is vaporized and conveyed to a place that is away from the original material, you have to condense the vapor to recover what you want in liquid form. This requires removing the heat of vaporization. So distillation requires a heat source and a source of heat removal, or cooling.

How can i pray & live effectivly? How can we live a "whole life"?

Jesus paid the penalty for our sins.  Pray to Him that you need Him to live a good life.  He said to be holy and that no one will enter the Kingdom of God unless you are born again. That comes through faith in Jesus Christ. Pray to Him (GOD) from your heart and He will answer you. Be like a child when you pray.  Humble. After all you will be talking to \nGod Almighty.  He will send His Holy Spirit to help you in the way of the Lord.  We are on this planet to have a relationship with the Creator God.  \n"For God so loved the world that He gave his only begotten Son that whosoever believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God did not come into the world to condemn the world..but to save it"   John 3:16 and 17\n     Read about Jesus and the life He hopes you will have in Him.  Purchase The Living Bible at a Christian Bookstore.  God is waiting for you to come to Him.  In Him you can have fullness of life.  "Seek the Lord while He may be found" Call out to Jesus NOW. He died and rose again for you to have eternal life. God bless you.

I fixed mine by deleting the SBC software that dealt with security as I was already covered through McAfee.  This seemed a logical step as the clicking didn't start until I downloaded this software.  This seemed to fix the problem.


How do I restore my default setting on my Dell Dimension 2400?

You can format the hard drive by taking the disk that came with it and putting it in at start up. Doing this will wipe out EVERYTHING on the computer.


If I collapsed of a heart attack and no one laughs, did I really make a difference in this world?

No. So when you die, ensure you do it in a manner which is most likely to amuse onlookers. Otherwise your death will have been in vain.
