How can i go about making my own studio?

I'll assume that this is for a small in home type studio...\n\nThe first thing you'll need is a room the is setup for it...  This means a room that has good audio insulation...  This can be as simple as using a soft packing foam to cover all the walls and the ceiling, and a good soft/thick rug on the floor(you don't want echo's that are unintentional)...\n\nNext is the ability to record, Personaly I would use digital recording into a computer...  You can use a piece of equipment like this:\nhttp://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/Firepod/\nto get many different mic lines into the computer, then use software (sorry, I don't have a piece of software that I know of off the top of my head, but if you call at sweetwater they can tell you a good one), it can even record each input seperatly to that you can listen and mix them after the fact(mixing means setting the volume of each channel to get the sound you want).  If you use a good software you can add effects too(such as delay's or echo's and other things)...\n\nNext would be speakers and an amp (or powered speakers, that's where the amp is built into the speakers), this way you can listen to the recording.  you want good speakers so that you can hear what it will realy sound like.  for listening to the recording and mixing, you don't want to use headphones because that wont sound how it'll sound in a sound system unless you use realy expensive headphones, and with headphones like this you can't have multiple people listening at the same time and be able to talk about it...\n\nNow, for while your recording, if you have a group (like a band) they might want to be able to hear the other people playing (such as an electric guitar), but you don't want to have any speakers turned on in the recording room while recording because that can cause feedback, or echo's.  For a situation like this they would need to wear headphones, and you can use a system that is made by Aviom for this.  They have this at sweetwater as well, and the way that works is to just plug in the instrament into the aviom directly, then it has a through put to plug into the digital recording system.  With the aviom, it takes all the imputs, digitizes them into it's own format, then you can use that to have any of the people having what ever they want in their own headset.  Look at Aviom.com to get more information about their system.\n\nI've been using live mixing and recording equipment for almost 10 years and would be happy to help out more, my email address is my user name here @ yahoo.com


How does the rise of global terrorism affect the U.N ability to manage world affairs?

The UN is unable to manage much of anything. I doubt whether terrorism can make it sink lower since it can't go lower than it already is.


What is the joke for this punchline that I remember from childhood?

Different versions everywhere but it goes along the lines of:\n\nthis evening, went down to tesco to get some food for my tea. i was browsing the aisles when I heard a man shouting sounded like he was going mental, so i looked towards the checkouts and see this guy (later found out from the police his name was Arti) shouting at the young girl serving him. the girl was saying he hadnt given her enough money for his shopping and that he was a pound short, they got into a really heated argument then all of a sudden out of no-where he leant accross to her and grabbed a hold of her throat and strganled her, she died right there in his hands! \ni couldnt believe it, everyone was just standing round in shock, this security guard come running up to grab him, but this Arti was a big guy and he just grabbed the security guard by the neck aswell and within a few seconds he was slumped on the floor dead, same as the young girl. after that this guy, still going absolutely mental just turns around and grabs the nearest person and does the same again. :( \n\n3 people killed right before my eyes in tesco at this point about 3 men (1 of them another security guard) over powered him until the police arrived. \n\nIve been down the police station all evening giving a statement, they said i will most likely need councelling to get over this, im still shaking now\n\nIt really didn’t help me when i heard that this morning it will be splashed across the News of the World's page 7 under the headline “Arti Chokes Three For A Pound At Tesco’s”


how does fluid help everyday life,how does it help planes fly,how does it help race cars?

It helps planes fly because they have complicated hydraulics systems.  These systems do different things such as raise and lower the landing gear, open and close doors, move ailerons, elevators, the rudder, as well as flaps and other systems.  \n\nAnother thing, fluid is not only a liquid, gases are also considered to be fluids.  If there was no air, then planes couldn't fly because they would not be able to create lift.\n\nIn everyday life, you use hydraulics systems and may not even know it.  The brakes system as well as the power steering system on your car are both hydraulics systems.  Other fluids in your car include the water and oil, which both cool the engine and the oil does the essential lubricating of the engine.  \n\nRace cars?  Well, they have a brake system, which is hydraulically operated just like your car's.  Some of them have power steering, but not all of them do.  If they are circle track cars then they probably do, but most drag cars do not have power steering, as the power steering takes power from the engine.  All car engines have an oil lubrication system.  Circle track cars certainly have a water cooling system, although most drag cars don't.  They just fill the car up with water, but it doesn't have a water pump in it to circulate the water.\n\nHope this helps.


Why is it that boys think there so special?


should teenagers have a bed time,on a school night? if so,what time?

Each child requires a different amount of sleep. My theory is to see how hard it is for them to wake up. They should be waking up refreshed and with little dificulty. If so, then the time they go to sleep is fine (or even later). However, if you need a garden hose to wake them up, then go to bed earlier.\n\nPersonally, I always needed very little sleep and never had a problem waking up. In high school, I typically went to bed between midnight to 1:00am and would wake up at 6:00am, often before the alarm. In my later years (aka today) I typically retire for the night at 2am and am up by 6:00am. (Speaking of which, it is almost bedtime)

Perhaps a little less than pH=7. You can try pH=6, due to acidic rain (decreases the pH of lake), then again it really depends on the size of the lake, because of the buffer solution (ionic equilibria in chemistry) present in the lake and all.\n\nIf you know the concentration of H+ ions in the lake, all the better. The pH will be: pH=-log[H+].

why lexicologiests (language scientists) say Arabic is the most powerful language in the world?

well..as i am an Arabic speaker,,ithink because this language is very rooted ,very historical and it was spoken for more than centuries and centuries,and that it was kept from generation to another ,,,reason?because the Quran (like the bible in christianty)was written in Arabic,and the Quran was written from like a very very long time i can't remember really and people didn't dare to change any single word or transform it ,that's why it is still existing to this day ,however the Arabic language was not effected by any language like the others .Arabic language is very rich in words ,also in it's grammer that's why it's very hard to study it !\nAbout the poetry i'm not sure but i guess because poetry was the only way to transform their feelings and their thoughts  ,,,


sweet echinacea, vitamin C pills, any homeopathic sore throat sprays, NyQuil, and force him to drink water no matter how bad it hurts. I got over my mono this week. I only missed 4 days of work. I got it Sunday 19th and and now I just have a minor sore throat. I also cannot stop yawning, don't know if that has anything to do though. Also make sure he tries to get better. Letting him rest doesn't mean let him sleep all day. Let him get up, watch a movie, walk around the house, do stuff he would normally do with free time. I think that helped me.

Looking for prescription drug plan for under 65 years and very low income, 1428.00 per. month for 2 people?

Have you considered using a Canadian pharmacy online?  I've used Canadiandrugs.com.  I get a prescription through them that would cost me $50 at an American pharmacy.  It cost me a $30 copay with my insurance.  I paid $22 for each prescription.  Shipping is $10 or free over $99 (at least it was when I shipped in my prescription).  I didn't find any problem with them, and it saved me some money.  If you can't find a prescription plan, you may want to consider this.  (You can't get insulin from there.)

Is the United States a democracy or a republic?

The United States of America is a federal republic situated primarily in North America.\n\nThe United States is, indeed, a republic, not a democracy. Accurately defined, a democracy is a form of government in which the people decide policy matters directly--through town hall meetings or by voting on ballot initiatives and referendums. A republic, on the other hand, is a system in which the people choose representatives who, in turn, make policy decisions on their behalf.\n\nBy popular usage, however, the word "democracy" come to mean a form of government in which the government derives its power from the people and is accountable to them for the use of that power. In this sense the United States might accurately be called a democracy.

Israel had watched for some time as the troops massed on it's border.

In the first day they had air superiority.  5 days later, they had 2 divisions of good used Soviet Armor to supplement their Army, and the war was over.

Can one alter his or hers DNA over time?

DNA can be altered in the short term through damaging substances such as all forms of radation....including tanning beds...chemicals, etc.   These types of changes usually lead to cancer and is probably very close to impossible to lead to a good change (although the change would only be for one cell that would probably not be passed on).  The other way is through evolution, which is obviously the long term.

True Love ....\n\nIt's as mysterious as the stars it was written on, as elusive. It is everything it's hyped about to be. It's worth taking every risk, it's worth fighting for, and the problem is if you don't risk all then you risk even more. Love is kind of an elixir that lures us out of reality and into the realm of fantasy. It's like a drug creating an altered state of consciousness.\n\nLove is the moment when an unfavorable act becomes favorable, when you make excuses for some one else's mistakes, when you learn to tolerate, when you learn acceptance, when sacrificing becomes the beauty of life. \n\nIt's the courage to tell the truth especially when you believe its unspeakable.\n\nIt's the time when seeing some one, being seen by some one and thinking about some one feels good, when you learn to find happiness in the smallest of moments.\n\nThat's love--when you learn to put down your ego and love some one more than that.\n\nLove is forgetting your self and remembering some one else. \n\nLove is choosing your partner exactly as he is, and supporting him in his choices. It's honoring your partner's truth and wanting best for him.\n\nIt's not controlling or possessing but rather respecting and trusting.\n\nIt does not mean owning some one, getting some one, rather it means being happy in your loved one's happiness.\n\nLove means living without judgments. It means treasuring your beloved and never taking him for granted. \n\nLove means being able to forgive and learning to give more then you get. It means reaching out when you don't want to, communicating rather than assuming and asking questions rather than jumping to conclusions.\n\nIt means working things out rather than fighting, fighting rather than leaving, and staying through the hurts and disappointments, knowing that through commitment all can be healed. \n\nFalling in love is like being enveloped in a magical cloud. The air feels fresher, the flowers smell sweeter, food tastes more delectable, and the stars shine more brightly at night. You feel light and lofty as though you are floating through life, and your problems and challenges suddenly seem insignificant and easily surmountable. Your body feels alive, your skin tingles and you awaken in the morning with a smile on your face. You are suspended in a state of supreme delight.\n\nLove is a feeling and an action that arises from the most primal place within us. Making a relationship however, is a process that is learned. A relationship is the vessel that carries the precious cargo of love through time.\n\nRelationships are like a precious antique lamp; it takes a little polish and some effort to restore it to its valuable condition. A relationships love and luster will only improve with age if you continually give it the care that keeps it beautiful. But once you uncover its essential beauty it will bring you joy for years to come.\n\nAfter having said all this I want to say that you have to make the decision on your own, on one hand love is magic, on the other it's time tested relationship worked hard and furiously at.

What is the Sun's Orbital pattern in the Galaxy?

A real good question, but one that I've never seen any kind of discussion about. It would be close to impossible to determine our Sun's galactic orbit because there are just too many variables involved that would periodically change the orbit--gravitational disturbances by other stars, galaxies, and varying densities as we traverse the spiral arms, etc.,. Also, it takes our Sun some 250-million years to make one complete orbit and we haven't been around long enough to get any kind of reliable idea of current orbital parameters.

why does wet foods usually be package in cylindrical containers?

For many years, this was the cheapest shape to manufacture and consistently affix labels to. Newer technologies are changing that rapidly, mostly because cylinders are the most wasteful volume to ship (except spheres, which are wholey impractical).


Jin fills a container 1 2/3 while Brad fills a container 7/4. Who has more? how do you no? show your work.?

You all thought way too hard on this one. There is no way to know who has more because the asker did not tell what size the containers were. \nWhoever had the biggest container had more because the numbers he gave are more than 1, you can not fill a container 1 and 2/3 of the way, nor can you fill one 7/4 of the way. Once they get to the top, they are full at 1 each. For example, if you try to pour 1 and 3/4 gallons (which is 7/4) into a one gallon container, you will only have one gallon in the container.\nIf both containers were the same size they both have the same amount.

Yahoo Answers is probably not the place to get in touch with the most caring, understanding and gentle people. It is a site for the young, for the bored, for the oversexed and the insomniacs. \nI try not to be too sarcastic in my answers but I have noticed I do fail - and while I am not proud of this, I also believe the questions are to be blamed sometimes. Quite some of the postings are completely unbelievable. \nI will easily admit that there are a lot of horrible postings in both questions and answers, but that always seems to happen in such online groups. I guess the best way still to deal with it is to ingnore it. What else can you do?

Do you think Iraq will erupt in civil war?

I think there's little doubt about that.  The only reason the country was stable for so long was Saddam Hussein.  Oppresive dictatorship is a highly effective way to hold together a country that should be torn appart by different factions all vying for control.  Iraq is made up primarily of three groups: the Shi'it Muslims, the Sunni Muslims, and the Kurds.  If I remember correctly, the Sunni's have most of the money, but most of the population is Shi'it (I may have reversed the two, though), and neither group is too fond of the Kurds.  Under Saddam, you had the wealthy elite repressing the both other groups.  Now it's revenge time.  No way it's going to be stable.  Besides which anyone who's actually elected president by any kind of majority vote we're going to through out as too religious and too anti-American (guess what, they don't like us very much).


How can I track down a life insurance policy?

First, ask your aunt if she has any idea of the company or even the person he spoke to about the life insurance policy. Also ask if she knows if he knew any insurance agents on a personal level. If you can't find it then start calling the Customer Service Departments of insurance companies in your state (if that's where he lived too). Tell them you are the Beneficiary on the policy and the Policy Owner is your father and now deceased.\nGood luck!

What is the fascination with marriage? Gay or Straight?

Maybe I look at this slightly differently than most people, but it almost boils down to a business transaction to me.  Marriage means being able to make medical decisions on behalf of your SO should something happen. It also means being jointly responsible for things like mortgages, car loans and other financial transactions. \n\nGranted, marriage should not be about these things alone. It should be a vow to be with the person you love forever(but you don't need a piece of paper to do this).  That's a very important part of marriage, but so is being protected should the union disolve or should one partner pass away.

is the control function linked to the organizing and leading functions of management?

Yes, persons who are good at organizing and leading are generally control freaks.  Or to put it more kindly, they have an ability to control the actions of others.  This is necessarily true.\n\nControl takes many forms, however.  Some are adept at propaganda, and persuade their organization to go along with their plans.  Some are adept at bribery and blackmail.  Others have genuinely good plans and are talented at presenting them in a persuasive way.  Even a person who does not like to control others, or is philosophically opposed to controlling others, may have that sort of skill.  \n\nMy example is a leader in the Libertarian Party.  Dr. Mary Ruwart knows that the party is composed of rather cussed individualists.  But her arguments are marvelously persuasive because she researchs carefully and states things in a sufficiently direct and simple form that it is extremely hard to disagree with her.

Yes, Allah is the God of All Mankind, and everything, The Same God of Prophet Abraham(Peace Be Upon Him), Prophet Moses(PBUH), Prophet Jesus(PBUH),  the Prophet Mohammed (PBUH), and all the Prophets that ever came (Peace and Blessings be Upon them All).  \n\nThe One True God   \n1 minute message - by Imam Shabir Ally  \n \nMost people realise that there is only one true God. Throughout history, this one true God has appointed many good men to tell others about Him so that humans everywhere may turn away from false gods and worship Him alone. Abraham, Moses, and Jesus (peace be upon them) all spoke about this one God and worshipped Him alone.\n\nIn the Gospel According to Matthew, 26:39 (King James Version) we are told that Jesus "fell on his face, and prayed" to God. And in the Gospel According to John, 17:3, Jesus declares that the one he prayed to is the only true God.\n\nThis very God speaks to us in these last days in His final Scripture which He will safeguard from corruption. God announces in His book good news to all those who believe in Him and do right. He says: Surely those who say, 'Our Lord is Allah,' and afterward are upright, the angels descend upon them, saying: Fear not nor grieve, but hear good tidings of the Paradise which you are promised. We are your protecting friends in the life of the world and in the Hereafter.\n\n"There you will have (all) that your souls desire, and there you will have (all) for which you pray. A gift of welcome from the Forgiving, the Merciful."\n[Al-Qur'an 41:30-32]\n\nThose who believe and do good works and believe in that which is revealed unto Muhammad - and it is the truth from your Lord - He rids them of their ill-deeds and improves their condition. That is because those who disbelieve follow falsehood and because those who believe follow the truth from their Lord. [Al-Qur'an 47:2]\n\nAccept this invitation, therefore, and enjoy a life of peace and satisfaction on earth, then everlasting life in God's Paradise. The true scripture promises all this to those who choose no other god except the one true God who was worshipped by Abraham, Moses, Jesus, and Muhammad (peace be upon them). The truth has now come to you from your Lord! Won't you accept it?(www.whyislam.org)

Why "lukewarm"?? Why not "john-warm" or anything else?

Lukewarm, meaning 'moderately warm; tepid' is another of those words that is either rather simple or somewhat complicated to explain, depending on how thorough one prefers one's etymological analysis.\n\nThe simple explanation is that lukewarm, which first appears in English in the late fourteenth century, is formed from Middle English luke, which itself means 'lukewarm; tepid', and warm.\n\nOnce we get to luke it begins to get a bit hairy. This word is often connected to lew, or in Old English hléowe 'tepid', but the alteration with the added -k- cannot be readily explained. However, there are various forms equivalent to luke in other Germanic languages, such as Low German lúk and Modern Dutch leuk, both also meaning 'lukewarm; tepid'.\n\nSkipping the mumbo-jumbo, it thus seems likely that these words stem from an original Indo-European base meaning 'warm', which developed one way into the luke forms and another way into the lew forms. Related words probably include calorie, cauldron, and scald, all from Latin roots.


Can we use software programs to teach an ADD child?

Yes you can.  Many kids with ADD are very motivated to learn using computer programs and various forms of computer technology.  Actually you can use just about anything to teach any child - it all depends on the child's interests.  There is considerable evidence that kids with ADD can pay attention and focus much longer when they are working at things that interest them, and computers seem to interest them greatly.  My advice would be to use whatever captivates them.


What's your favourite Elvis Costello album?

since his styles have changed so much, from alt rock to lounge to country to ballet, it so hard to choose just one.  for his alt rock i really like the greatest hits album (dont know the title off the top of my head) mainly because its got all his standards and it was my first costello album.  i do really like "north" and "il sogno" though.  \n\nfor my all time favorite, i would have to say, "il sogno", cause shakespearean ballet in the fifties musical style is flippin' sweet\n\nthe other albums i own are "blood and chocolate", "spike", "when i was cruel", "cruel smile", "delivery man", and all the aforementioned albums as well


This is a country that has been openly preaching hate and advocating obliteration of its enemies for nearly thirty years.

In simple terms and in detail, how does radar work? Any resources on the web that explains it nicely?

A ultra-high frequency radio signal is generated by a magnitron transmitter tube.  A burst of signal is transmitted to a parabolic antenna which focuses the signal in one direction, through a hollow tube called a waveguide.  Just like a light is focused in a flashlight!\nFollowing the transmission the radar set goes into receive mode and receives the reflection of the transmitted signal.  The time delay represents the distance away from the transmitting / receiving antenna. The further away the longer it takes the signal to travel.  Now something will only be visable to radar if it is larger than a quarter wavelenth.  What this means to you in practical terms is this something can be so small that it cannot return a signal on some frequency!  So Radars that search for enemy aircraft have multiple frequencies so that they can detect multi-sized targets.  Aircraft when they come at you present a small target, although they are large.  Anyway Hope I have been of some use.\n\nHave a good day.\nIf you need more detail ask in additional details I can answer any specific.\n\nAPS

When spherical bacteria occurs in pairs,they are called.....?

First, to achieve success in school, spend some time doing research. In the time it took to post a question in Y!A you could have used a seach engine and come up with the answer in seconds.\nbecause it is so easy to find, I will go ahead do a brief rundown on spherical bacteria.\n\nSperical cells are round and are called 'cocci' (singular coccus). They may be true spheres (eg. staphylococci), or irregular helmet-shaped (eg. pneumococci), or kidney-shaped (eg. Neisseriae, Vibrio). \n\nCocci may occur alone, in pairs, or in groups. \nIf found in pairs they are called diplococci.\nIn a group of three they are a triad, etc. \nOthers include: Tetracoccus (groups of four), Streptococcus (chains), Sarcina (cubes of eight), and Staphylococcus (irregular clusters). \n\nThis group can cause many diseases in humans and animals. Some include the following: pneumonia, throat infection, strep throat, bacterial heart disease, meningitis, septicemia (blood poisoning), and various skin diseases including fleash eating disease.\n\nIf you were not doing a homework assignment, I apologize for chastizing you. In order to be successful in research, you have to lay a good foundation.

Create a real-world linear equations and matrices example problem?

So, continuing with mr_w's excellent example, we have 4 equations in 4 unknowns. So you can set this up as a matrix-vector problem.  Define matrix M such that M * Number of games bought vector = Cost & total games vector.  Assigning the rows of M in order to the total cost, the PS3 and Xbox360 cost, the PS1 and Xbox360 cost, and the total number of games, \nM = \n70 150 300 450\n0 0 300 450\n70 0 0 450\n1 1 1 1\nNumber of games bought vector =\na\nb\nc\nd\nand Cost & total games vector =\n13910 12000 3050 54\nThe solution will find the values of a, b, c and d.\nWhen I ran the solution I ended up with noninteger values for each and the values checked with the problem statements.  I hope those values were mr_w's solution.

Niemann-Pick Disease\nFrom Mary Kugler,\n\nGroup of storage disorders\nStorage disorders occur when the body is unable to break down certain enzymes, as it normally would, so the excess enzyme accumulates and causes damage to the body's cells. Niemann-Pick disease refers to a group of inherited storage disorders which affect how the body creates energy (metabolism). \nCertain groups have higher risk\nNiemann-Pick disease affects all groups of people and both males and females. However, certain populations have a higher incidence of the disease: \n\nAshkenazi Jewish population (Types A and B) \nFrench Canadian population of Nova Scotia (variation of Type C) \nMaghreb region (Tunisia, Morocco, Algeria) of North Africa (Type B) \nSpanish-American population of southern New Mexico and Colorado (Type C) \nThe three types of Niemann-Pick disease are commonly called Type A, Type B, and Type C. \n\nleads to accumulation of a fat (sphingomyelin) which damages cells severe neurological disease \nleads to death by 2 to 3 years of age \nmost cases (85%) of Neimann-Pick are Type A \nType B Niemann-Pick \n\ncaused by deficiency of acid sphingomyelinase - approximately 10% of normal level \nleads to accumulation of sphingomyelin which damages cells \nlittle or neurological problems \noften live into adulthood \nType C Neimann-Pick \n\ncaused by inability to break down cholesterol \nleads to accumulation of cholesterol and other fats in liver, spleen, and brain \nneurological disease develops \nleads to death usually by age 20 \nmost rare type of Niemann-Pick (possibly 500 cases worldwide) \nSymptoms variable\nOne of the difficulties in correctly diagnosing Niemann-Pick disease is that its symptoms can be different in each person affected. Types A and C have neurological symptoms such as difficulty walking, speaking, and learning. Type B does not have these symptoms; the only clue to the disease may be repeated respiratory infections and an enlarged abdomen. \n\nDiagnosis\nTypes A and B can be diagnosed by measuring the ASM activity in white blood cells; low levels would point to Niemann-Pick. Type C can be diagnosed by examining a skin sample (biopsy) for cholesterol storage. \n\nResearch for treatments and cures\nAs yet there are no definitive treatments or cures for any type of Niemann-Pick disease. Supportive care through nutrition, medication, physical therapy, and being followed by specialists can help with quality of life. \n\nThe discovery in 1997 of the gene responsible for Niemann-Pick disease has helped focus research for treatments. Research has been taking several directions: \n\nBone marrow transplantation has shown effectiveness in mice for Type B \nEnzyme replacement has shown effectiveness in mice for Type B \nGene therapy has shown effectiveness in mice for Type A \nA medication called Zavesca showed some effectiveness in slowing Type C in mice. \nInformation for this article was taken from:\n- National Niemann-Pick Disease Foundation.\n- Centurion, S. A. (2003). Niemann-Pick disease. eMedicine, accessed at http://www.emedicine.com/derm/topic699.htm

what duties and responsibities a surgeon has?

First, to perform the correct surgery, on the right patient.  That's not as easy as it sounds: sometimes the decision as to what needs done is not a trivial one.  This includes working with the other physician(s) on the case to assure that the proper diagnosis is reached, and the appropriate course of treatment is selected.\n\nOnce the surgery is performed, the surgeon is responsible for monitoring the progress of the patient (relevant to the surgery, at least) until full recovery is achieved, or at least inevitable--or, until 'the inevitable' happens, a euphemism for dying.  Again, in the process of monitoring the patient's recovery process, the surgeon generally coordinates activities with the other physician(s) involved; usually by direct conversation, but also by written record.\n\nShould a later investigatioin show that there has been some sort of mischance (so called) related to the surgery--as might be a sponge or an instrument left in the patient, or some other unfortunate thing--the surgeon's the one held responsible for its presence: as "Captain of the Ship" so to speak, anything that happens in the operating room is his or her responsibility, even if the surgeon did not do it directly or indirectly.

That contradicts 0 < z. Proving the other two parts is similar.\nx+z = y,

What is Iloprost Infussion? What does it do?

*Searching a lil bit*  Iloprost (Ilomedin®, Schering AG, Berlin, Germany)\nIloprost Pronunciation (EYE loe prost)\nU.S. Brand Names Ventavis\nSynonyms Iloprost Tromethamine; Prostacyclin PGI2\nTherapeutic Category-Prostaglandin\nUse Treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension in patients with NYHA Class III or IV symptoms.\nMechanism of Action-Acutely, iloprost dilates systemic and pulmonary arterial vascular beds. In longer-term use, alters pulmonary vascular resistance and suppresses vascular smooth muscle proliferation. In addition, it is a potent endogenous inhibitor of platelet aggregation.\nPharmacodynamics/Kinetics\nDuration: 30-90 minutes\nMetabolism: Hepatic via beta oxidation of the carboxyl side chain; main metabolite, tetranor-iloprost (inactive in animal studies)\nHalf-life elimination: 20-30 minutes\n\nCAUTIONS : The most common adverse effects of inhaled iloprost are flushing (vasodilatation), increased cough, headache, and trismus (lockjaw). Serious events include pulmonary edema, which is a sign of pulmonary venous hypertension. Iloprost should not be initiated in patients with systolic blood pressure less than 85 mmHg because of the risk of syncope. Other adverse effects include insomnia, nausea, and vomiting.\n\nIloprost is a more stable synthetic analogue of prostacyclin (epoprostenol). It is a comparable pulmonary vasodilator to prostacyclin and therefore has potential for the treatment of pulmonary hypertension. But I'm seeing in studies on everything from HIV to Diabetes...\n\nInfusion noun (medicine) the passive introduction of a substance (a fluid or drug or electrolyte) into a vein or between tissues (as by gravitational force)\n\nNote: Iloprost can also be infused as an inhaled vapor...

I have a hard time with 'Natural Log's' too, Can someone please help explain it to me? I appreciate it :)

To quote one of my old teachers, who made a lasting impression by screaming the following at our class:\n\nLOGRITHMS ARE EXPONENTS!!!!!!\n\nIf you have an exponent, then you are taking some number to a power.  That number is known as the base.\n\nYou can use any positive number for the base but usually log refers to log base 10. ln is always base e, where e = 2.7...\n\nThat is, saying ln(x) = y is the same thing as saying x = e^y. (y is a logrithm so y is an exponent!)\n\nHistory:\nNatural logs originate in the search for an integral for 1/x. \nIf you define a function, F(x), such that F'(x) = 1/x and start looking at its properties, you find that F(ab) = F(a) + F(b) and F(a^n) = nF(a). The behavior you would expect from a logrithm function. When you calculate the base for that function, you get e.

In the no man's land set up landmines, you will totally stop all contraband entering this country.\n\nThe Berlin Wall was put up to keep people in, not people out.  The wall on the border would be along the same lines of the Intentions of the Great Wall of China or Hadian's Wall in Great Britan.

The people in here help me so much, it's hard to thank you all.  Do you all like the help you get in Answers?

I haven't asked many questions here yet, but since I discovered it, I have very much enjoyed answering questions.  I answer a lot of questions in the Education and Reference section - during my career I worked as a teacher, special education teacher, counselor, educational psychologist, principal, and consultant, so I find I can often help people from those perspectives with many issues.  Additionally, writing is a hobby of mine, so by answering questions here I get to practice something I love to do while also helping people.  Because of health issues right now my husband and I can't get out much -it is bitter winter where we live - so this is something that keeps me busy and keeps my mind active.\n\nI am quite impressed with the quality of many of the answers here.  Of course, many o fhte questions are asked in fun and many answers given are given in fun, which is also fine.  But I notice that for the most part if a serious question is asked it gets serious answers.\n\nI think this is a great way to interact and communicate with people on many levels.  Answers is a great idea.  And if I needed an answer to a serious question, or a frivolous question, I would certainly post it here.


I need great ideas for Information system .?

How about a program that helps people that are taking the test to become an American citizen. They can use it to learn the English needed for the test with practice tests, exercises, slang language, writing in English, study guide for test and practicing the oath and what it all means? Also, American history needed for the test, links to websites and even games to make interesting.\nOr, you could come up with some type of system that helps new parents with their first baby. You know, like a list of behaviors, medical conditions, links to reference websites, emergency numbers for like poison control and put a link in there that can update numbers and the like. Provide tips and information on feeding problems, sleeping, and God-forbid crib death, links to find car seats...the possibilities are endless. Oh, and a name database of names and meanings, most popular names and things like that. If you use my ideas, all I want to know is what grade you made on it! LOL. I'll try to help with some other ideas if I come up with any. I'm a writer so I think I can help you at least with your writing if you need it. rilti8@sbcglobal.net. email me if you need some help. Good luck. OOH,OOH,OOH, I GOT ANOTHER ONE! Maybe you can develop a program that helps people to compare prices of things they are shopping on the net for instead of having to go to a million different websites! You know, type in say, you're looking for tires or something and you search for a certain price range and location and it pulls up a list of sellers and prices for comparison.

did the people(egyptians / greek) really know more than we did about life and evreything that goes with it?

Is really amazing that they  were so beyond their age!\nIs really worth to find and study their work.

what is denatured ethyl alcohol?what is it used for?

Main article: Denatured alcohol\nIn most jurisdictions, the sale of ethanol, as a pure substance or in the form of alcoholic beverages, is heavily taxed. In order to relieve non-beverage industries of this tax burden, governments specify formulations for denatured alcohol, ethanol blended with various additives to render it unfit for human consumption. These additives, called denaturants, are generally either toxic (such as methanol) or have unpleasant tastes or odors (such as denatonium benzoate).\nSpecialty denatured alcohols are denatured alcohol formulations intended for a particular industrial use, containing denaturants chosen so as not to interfere with that use. While they are not taxed, purchasers of specialty denatured alcohols must have a government-issued permit for the particular formulation they use and must comply with other regulations.\nCompletely denatured alcohols are denatured alcohol formulations that can be purchased for any legal purpose, without permit, bond, or other regulatory compliance. It is intended that it be difficult to isolate a product fit for human consumption from completely denatured alcohol. For example, the completely denatured alcohol formulation used in the United Kingdom contains (by volume) 89.66% ethanol, 9.46% methanol, 0.50% pyridine, 0.38% naphtha, and is dyed purple with methyl violet.\n\nALDRICH CHEMICAL -- ETHYL ALCOHOL, DENATURED \nMATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEET

does having sex more often make it last longer?

for guys and girls. yes.  reason being is that for guys, the more you ejaculate, the more semen your testicles have to produce to keep up, which usually means less semen in the testicles when having sex (because you ejeculated therest yesterday)  it takes more time to ejaculate the less semen you have.  that's why virgins always finish more quickly, or people that haven't had sex in a while.  for women the reasons are completely different.  it's all about sensation, as a female orgasm has nothing to do with ejaculation.  but the more you experience a sensation, the more aclimated you become to it.  women have orgasms when their pleasure reaches a crescendo and they 'climax'.  but the more you've experienced this pleasure the longer it takes (for most people) the reach that climax.  it's like if you eact chocolate cake every day, it's still good, but it takes a really good peice for you to say "damn, that was good!"  as opposed to if you went without it for years, your next peice would be amazing even if you bought it at the dollar store.  so yeah, that's it.

It has 2 analgesics- Hydrocodone and tylenol (acetaminopehen)\nHydrocodone works by block pain perception in the brain by blocking opioid receptors within neuron synapse\n  Tylenol works by inhibiting the synthesis of prostaglandins (some chemicals that are used to pass pain sensation) in the CNS. In other parts of the body, it blocks pain impulse generation.\n   Tylenol also works to reduce fever by inhibiting the heat regulation center in the brain (hypothalamus)

In english  if a sentence is given how to find out whether it is a simple,compound or a complex sentence?

A simple sentence is a sentence with one subject and one predicate. A simple sentence can stand by itself and make sense. Like these:\n\n"/We kissed/."\n"/I kissed/ her."\n"/I kissed/ her in the rain."\n\nThey all have one subject-and-predicate and stand on their own.\n-----\nA compound sentence has two or more subject-and-predicate sections (known as clauses). Both of the clasues could stand alone and make sense, but are being combined into one sentence. Like this one(from the source):\n\n"/Mary understands/ math ; /she has studied/ it for years."\n\nThe two clauses could stand alone, but are being combined in this sentence.\n-----\nA complex sentence also has two or more clauses. It has one independent clause. The rest are dependent on the first. For example:\n\n"/It was wet outside/, so /I put my coat on./"\n\nIf it wasn't wet outside, you would not have put your coat on. /I put.../ is dependent, while /It was.../ is independent.\n\nDid that make sense? Either way, just go to the sources I have. I can't explain anything.

A site that redirects you to the blocked site won't help you, the site will still be blocked.\n\nYou must search for annonymouse proxies, sites that browse the blocked site for you. That will work only if the proxy site itself isn't blocked. But normally that kind of sites are also blocked.\n\nThe last thing you can try is to view the page you are interested using cache sites. Google, Yahoo and many other search sites offers cache pages of the site you searched, so you can access the information in that way.\n\nOf course, not all the pages are cached, only a few of them, but them could be of help if you are desperate.

I weigh 93kg, do i change my diet first or do i start with exercising or both? help. starting to get depressed

Begin by doing cardiovascular exercise.  The increase in oxygen flow to the brain and release of endorphins is the most powerful natural mood-booster.  Diet, but do not crash diet.  Any weight loss greater than 1-2 pounds in the first week of dieting will be water and muscle loss.  This weight will be gained back very rapidly if you stop dieting.  Generally, the more your starting weight is, the more weight per week you will lose.  If you are 100 lbs. overweight, you may lose 2 lbs of fat per week;  if you are only 5 lbs overweight, you may only be able to lose a half-pound of fat per week (as your body fights to hold onto its 'emergency energy reserves').

Do you think we will ever find a grand unification theory?

No one really knows. However, one should not discount the creativity of humans, and the power of the scientific method. However, it might take another 5 years to come to fruition, or another 500. \n\nIt should be noted that the brane theory is not really a grand unified theory or GUT, but an even more ambitious type of theory called  a Theory of Everything, or TOE, that tries to explain all four fundamental forces (gravity, electromagnetism, weak force and strong force) as aspects of the same thing. A GUT only tries to explain 3 of the four fundamental forces (electromagnetism, the weak force and the strong force). \n\n\nThe weak and electromagnetic forces have been effectively combined so far. The rest of the effort is still fairly speculative.

how virus work in my computer? help me to create it and rid it and does virus have it's own brain?

In addition to Hybrid's answer:\n\nDepending on the severity/quantity of viruses, you may want to look into:\n\n1) If you have an anti-virus program, run a full scan on your system. Look for McAffee or Norton antivirus tools in "programs" for starters.\n\n2) If you have no antivirus program installed, try AVG free addition. It is easy to install and you'll receive regular updates to counter new virus attacks. You can also use tools to run full scans on your system. You can download it at: http://free.grisoft.com/doc/2/lng/us/tpl...\n\nOr, try the following link:\nhttp://housecall.trendmicro.com/...\n\n3) If a PC is plagued with viruses, your best bet is to clean the system BEFORE it boots. This can be done by using some free tools available. Check out:\n\nhttp://www.nu2.nu/pebuilder/intro/...\n\nYou use PE Builder to make a bootable CDROM that loads a windows-like interface in memory. Because none of your hard drive files are locked they can be cleaned of any viruses. BartPE provides free McAffee plugins that you can run to accomplish this. WARNING: you have to fairly computer savy to work with BartPE. You may want to recruit a friend to help. It's more work, but I've found this to be the most effective way to clean your system.\n\nHTH,\nD

I don't use netspeak, and it does affect my perception of the poster.

As a former ESOL teacher, I have a lot of compassion for those trying their best to express themselves in this sometimes difficult language!\n\nI answer questions in a serious and thoughtful manner because I want to be taken seriously. It's difficult to take someone seriously if they answer with, "i dont no wat to say but im really bored an i want mor points so pik my answer to your?

World war 3-how will we stop the Muslim extremists?

We should let them have their beliefs in their country and quit trying to enforce democracy on them. Retaliate when justified with attacks but we shouldn't provoke attacks with them or anyone.\n\nMy personal favorite though to protect our country would be to put liquified pig fat in all all cleaning products and in our weaponry. Would any Muslim have hijacked and crashed a plane on 9/11 if he knew his body and blood would of been intermingled with pig fat upon his death? No they wouldn't, they would never consider it because this would keep them from heaven. There I have solved the entire worlds terrorism problem, but who will listen to me?

How many different shapes can you make out of 5 equalateral triangle?

It depends what you mean by "different" shapes.  For example, is a long chain, 3 lengths on the bottom, 2 lengths on the top different from the same shape upside-down?  Assuming that the usual set of transformations ensuring congruence (translation, reflection and rotation) are allowed as not making different shapes, and also assuming you're looking for closed shapes (rather than, say, 5 triangles arranged so that no sides are touching, only meeting at vertices), then there are only 4 different arrangements.\n\nI'll do my best to try to describe them:\n\n- All 5 triangles in a straight line, 3 facing up, 2 facing down.\n- A hexagon with 1/6 missing (like a pie with 1 piece eaten).\n- A larger equilateral triangle (4 pieces) with one extra triangle on one of the sides (doesn't matter where, due to reflections and rotations)\n- A chain of 4 triangles, making a parallelogram, with one extra triangle in one of the locations that will make a different shape than the one above.

It depends on what allergy you're talking about. Skin rash? Food allergies? Cooties and girls?\n\nAs far as I know, allergies are different for each and every person. Like me for instance - I don't have any food allergies but I break into rashes when I get really sweaty and hot. It all depends on who and what allergies you are talking about.\n\nSo what do I know about allergy? I know that allergies are bad, and sometimes you can get rid of them with a shot. I also know allergy can also be triggered through mental psychosis or through physical contact. And I also know, a very good line about allergy:\n\n"I'm sorry, I'm allergic to bullsh**."\n-Detective Spooner (Will Smith), I Robot

How to complete the message of life if a person dies sooner than expected?

What does it mean to die sooner than expected?  Fact is, our time on Earth is predestined from the time of our birth.  Thus, there's no such thing as dying 'sooner' than expected.\n\nIf a message is interrupted, then it wasn't meant to be delivered by the deceased.
