what is this discoloration on my chest area?

Sounds like a mild skid infection, that has become locked inside your poars. If the denorex worked, I suggest staying in it awhile longer, say 2 weeks. It killed 98% of the infection, but the remaining 2% grew back. Or you can go see the Doc & get an antibiotic which always works best, but cost more. \nThe 3 key ingredients that promote bacteria growth are "Warmth, moisture, & darkness."


is it ever chistmas day all over the world?

I think the answer to your question is yes, but only briefly. The world is divided into 24 time zones. Each one corresponds with an hour of the day. So when it becomes December 25th (12:00 a.m.) in the last time zone, it is 11:00 p.m. in the first time zone, if I have done my math right. So for one hour, it is christmas day all over the world.


I need to find out what the relationship was between the United States and Africa during the 20th Century.?

Africa at the start of the 20th century\n\n\nAll of the continent claimed by European powers, except for Ethiopia ("Abyssinia") and Liberia.\n\nThe European powers set up a variety of different administrations in Africa at this time, with different ambitions and degrees of power. In some areas, parts of British West Africa for example, colonial control was tenuous and intended for simple economic extraction, strategic power, or as part of a long term development plan.\n\nIn other areas Europeans were encouraged to settle, creating settler states in which a European minority came to dominate society. Settlers only came to a few colonies in sufficient numbers to have a strong impact. British settler colonies included British East Africa, now Kenya, North and South Rhodesia, later Zambia and Zimbabwe, and South Africa, which already had a significant population of European settlers, the Boers. In the Second Boer War, between the British Empire and the two Boer republics of the Orange Free State and the South African Republic (Transvaal Republic), the Boers unsuccsefully resisted absorbtion in to the British Empire.\n\nFrance planned to settle Algeria and eventually incorporate it into the French state as an equal to the European provinces. Its proximity across the Meditterranean allowed plans of this scale.\n\nIn most areas colonial administrations did not have the manpower or resources to fully administer the territory and had to rely on local power structures to help them. Various factions and groups within the societies exploited this European requirement for their own purposes, attempting to gain a position of power within their own communities by cooperating with Europeans. One aspect of this struggle included what Terrence Ranger has termed the "invention of tradition." In order to legitimize their own claims to power in the eyes of both the colonial administrators, and their own people, people would essentially manufacture "traditional" claims to power, or ceremonies. As a result many societies were thrown into disarray by the new order.\n\n\n\n\nDuring World War I, there were several battles between the United Kingdom and Germany, the most notable being the Battle of Tanga, and a sustained guerrilla campaign by the German General Paul von Lettow-Vorbeck.

Why won't you quote the Bible in modern English?  You know God, Jesus, Moses, etc. didn't speak old english.

It's because of a misguided trust in the "Textus Receptus" or "received text" that the KJV is based on. Unfortunately, the TR was one of the early modern translations, when people were just getting into comparing different manuscripts. It was originally treated as authoritative because not many other translations were competing with it (the Polyglot Bible was one of them, and was better, but it was Catholic and so it didn't get much press among the Protestants). \n\nThis respect has been passed down over the centuries, in spite of better manuscripts being discovered.

What bank has the best savings account program?

The best savings account that I have found to date is with Emigrant Direct. They are currently paying out 3.92% on savings accounts. The best part is that there is not a minimum to open the account and everything is done online. You simply send them a deposit and thats it. They must first verify your information, however this process isn't very time consuming. There isn't any hassle and they offer great service. You can go to their website, which is http://www.emigrantdirect.com, for more information.

WHY DO PEOPLE QUESTION IF THERE IS A GOD OR NOT?

I am also a Christian and the reason they do is because they're scared. To believe in god is to much for them. And that would mean not going to heaven they would want that. So for them it's easier to just believe that there is no god just a heaven. And that they are going there. E-mail me it would be cool to finally have another believer to talk to. Oh yeah don't listen to this "Skeptic Man".

if u had to take a job but had other responsibliites would you even though your sick and disabled?

I would try to find something that I could most likely keep up with.\n\nWhen my job fizzled out and I discovered I was expecting a baby, I found work that I could do from home, on my own time. It's not easy, but I don't have a boss... Just make sure to keep up your worker's benefits, because a job is usually more than just a salary.\n\nI think it's important to be honest with your future employer, e.g., when I was a single mom, I told my future employers that I would need to work just 3 days a week the whole summer & they hired me despite that. Afterwards, it was no problem, because it had been spelled out in advance.

How do you find true love? & How do you know when you have found it?

From what science has been able to tell us, what we humans often refer to as "love" is, in fact, comprised of a number of different elements.\n\nPheromones, one of the basic components of smell, are picked up by receptors in the nose and converted to electrical impulses which tell areas of the brain that "here is someone to whom I could be attracted." "The evidence has now become quite strong that humans produce and detect pheromones," agreed Edward W. Johnson of Idaho State University in Pocatello. However, we should note that other researchers say more study is needed to find out if they are as powerful in humans as they are in other species.\n\nHumans, particularly males, are visually oriented, and sights that please us cause what is known as "pupillary dilation" (your pupils dilate when you see something you like).\n\n\n\nThe parasympathetic branch of the autonomic nervous system which mediates sexual arousal, induces such responses as pupillary dilation. When two people look at each other at the same moment, and both sets of pupils dilate, the result is what some people refer to as "love at first sight." We're reacting to the reaction of the other person, as well as to our own reaction to them.\n\nHumans, particularly females, react strongly to the sense of touch. The outer covering of skin is our body's largest "part." Skin makes up about 15% of the body's weight, and occupies some 21 square feet of surface area. Being touched by someone lowers blood pressure, releases endorphins (the brain's equivalent of opium), and causes many other strongly positive reactions. One report of touch deprived women revealed that only a tiny percent had ever had an orgasm.\n\nTaken together, all of these responses lead to sexual attraction, which affects our emotions, which many people translate as "love."\n\nYet, humans, besides being rather sophisticated members of the animal kingdom, are also rational and rationalizing beings. True, at times our emotions can completely eliminate rational thought, but most people can, with a bit of practice, overrule their emotions and make rational decisions.\n\nEveryone who has been married, or has been in a long-term relationship, has had moments when they were so angry at the other that they began to question whether they truly "loved" the other person anymore. Where were all those feelings they had when the relationship was young? What happened to that pit of the stomach, semi-dizzy, giddy euphoria?\n\nIt's at these points when we need to come to the realization that "feelings" are great, but the real test of love is when the pressure's on and everything seems to be going to hell in a hand basket. This is when we need to remember that love is a decision even more than it is a set of feelings. Sometimes we need to call upon our rational natures, overrule our feelings, and decide to love the other.\n\nIn a classic "which came first" question, most people would protest that "love should come first," then the mind will follow. What people mean by this is that feelings of being "in love" should come before we decide that we're in love with another person, a kind of "engage feelings before putting mind in gear." Unfortunately this approach doesn't have a very good track record. When we allow our feelings to dictate our reactions to other people, we wind up on an emotional roller coaster, falling in and out of "love" with alarming regularity.\n\n\n\nthis was an excerpt from paradigmassociates.org

How do you find the average of a given set of numbers?

You add the numbers together and then divide by the number of numbers...for example: 2, 6, 8, 4\n\n2+6+8+4 = 20\n20/4 = 5\n\nThe average of the 4 numbers is 5.


how does stress affect the way someone sleeps?

Stress is the way our body and mind deals with a stimuli.  Increased levels of stress affect us by limiting the number of hours of sleep we get per night, mainly due to the fact that our mind isn't calm enough to sleep.\n\nIn the long run, stress can weaken the immune syste, can shorten  your life span, and can severly inhibit your ability to get a full REM sleep.\n\nThe best way to deal with this issue, is to simply find an outlet for your stress.  Once found, simply practicie letting go of the stress and sleeping in a dimly lit room, without any outside stimuli.

How much sleep does a young lady, say about 12 years old, need to be healthy?

Eight to ten hours is best, although even a solid eight is better than less. Kids really shouldn't cut their sleep too short until they age a bit more; normally around 14-15. Even then, six to eight is what to shoot for. It just gets harder, the further you move into the teenage years, to find the time for enough sleep.

"To open a mangosteen, the shell is usually broken apart, not cut. Holding the fruit in both hands, press it gently (thumbs on one side, the other fingers on the other) till the shell cracks. It is then very easy to pull the halves apart along the crack, and remove the fruit without staining."\n\n"Care must be taken when opening the fruit as the red husk outside produces a purplish inky juice that stains fabric, which can be almost impossible to remove (the reason why they are banned from some hotels in countries where they are available)."

Can human genes play a role in identifying caste, creed or religion or clan?

The other's answers are partially right, but take the common social constructivist view too far. Race/creed/caste/religion/clan/ethnicity are all slippery terms that are not easily defined. In a similar manner it is very hard to define what a species is (The common idea that a species is defined by when organisms can reproduce is violated for many species and meaningless for asexual organisms). A race or population from a biological perspective is a grouping of organisms that tend to breed more among themselves than with other groups. Subsequently they tend to have distinctive features. Now of course our common definitions of race have a large social influence that defies the logic of a group that tend to breed more with itself than other groups. For example the U.S.'s idea of hypodescent that dictates that someone who is 1/16 of black african descent is African American is kind of silly (on the other hand if these African Americans tend to breed mainly with other African Americans then perhaps it is not so far fetched).\n\nJust because something can not easily be defined and overlaps does not mean it does not exist. Males are on average taller than females, but many females are taller than many males. This doesn't mean that it is a social construction to say menare bigger then women.\n\nTo answer your original question, with these caveats acknowledged, genes are distinctive among different human popularions (populations which follow human conceptions of race pretty well). Many of these genes are neutral and depend upon similar techniques to those used in forensics to get a DNA fingerprint. Interestingly, some of these gens are functional, they change the way our bodies and minds work.\nFor example, the sickle cell gene which helps protect against malaria is at much higher frequency in populations which must deal with malaria.\nA genetic polymorphism, the dopamine receptor D4 gene varies radically among populations. This is a gene that has been associated with behavioral differences among people including ADHD. It is thought by some that different social background may select for different frequencies of the DRD4 gene. The frequency of ADHD associated genese in a population probably also impacts how that culture evolves.


How come when you play yahoo games you have to put up with these sex sites from women in the chat boxes?

I hate to break it to you, but they're not really women who you're talking to. A lot of it's because some guys realize they can talk to women while they play games and try to pick up on girls while they're there, and so a few companies are trying to capatalize on the horniness of men.

how deep is the deepest part of the ocean?

How deep is the deepest part of the ocean? Does anything live down there? \n\nWe didn't have to dig very deep to find the answer to this one. We simply typed "deepest part of the ocean" into Yahoo! and uncovered several web pages that answered your question. \nOur first stop was ScienceNet, a British web site that purports to be a one-stop science site. We couldn't dispute that claim after they provided us with the facts of the matter: The Marianas Trench in the Pacific Ocean is 11,033 meters (36,201 feet) below sea level. If Mount Everest were placed inside of this trench, it would disappear. \n\nWe headed back to the search results and saw something that looked very familiar -- our friend Earl, the answer man at Yahooligans!. Turns out Earl had answered the question some time ago and agreed with our earlier finding. He also offered a couple of links to more information on the trench. At Oceanclopedia, we learned that the deepest part of the trench is named Vitjazdepth. The trench was formed when the Pacific plate collided with the Philippine plate, which also resulted in the formation of the nearby island Guam. \n\nTo find out if anything actually lives down there, we swam over to Earth & Sky, a companion site to the popular science radio series. We discovered that plants can't live at such depths because they need sunlight for photosynthesis -- light doesn't penetrate such depths. However, recent photographs from unmanned craft show shrimp-like crustaceans, sea cucumbers, and marine worms. In addition, bacteria flourish on the muddy floors of the trenche

The term "best" is relative to your needs.\n\nIf your need to browse websites in a secure and fast manner is highest then Opera would be your choice (my personal preference).\n\nIf your need to be able to access most of the world's websites without a few sites being "unviewable" is highest then Internet Explorer would be your choice (but at a security risk).\n\nIf you want a browser with loads of technical add-ons to play with then Firefox would be your choice.\n\n<-------------->\n\nI prefer Opera because its download size is small, it provides the fastest browsing experience, it is the most secure browser, it has had so few vulnerabilities, vulnerabilities are patched the quickest, it is the most standards-compliant browser, it originated tabbed browsing, it originated "mouse gestures", it uses relatively little RAM, it includes an email client (POP3 & IMAP) with SPAM filtering, it includes an RSS reader, it includes a chat client, it includes a news protocol reader, it includes a fully functional download manager (future versions will be the first browser to include BitTorrent support), includes a WAP browser within it, supports small-screen rendering to see how pages look on cell phones, its highly customizable, if your PC crashes Opera remembers all your browsing tabs, it runs on Java MIDP for phones, it runs on Linux/UNIX and other platforms, etc.\n\nYou can't go wrong  :-)

As others have said, it doesn't fall, it condenses onto cool surfaces when the humidity is very high.  Since humidity is relative to air temperature, you get dew in the early hours of the morning when it is coldest.  \n\nThe sea contains salt water because salt is very common in the earth's top crust and rain washes the salt seawards.  In areas where rivers can't get to the sea, you will get salt lakes, such as in Utah.\n\nDeciduous trees lose their leaves in the fall by drawing whatever water they can into the tree's trunk and using sugars and salts as a natural antifreeze.  The leaves die off with the lack of water.\n\n"where do scorpions go when its cold?"  I don't know, and I don't wanna know.

****Edit based on further details from asker *****\nSailing around the world is sailing within the sperhical confines of our planet.  If there were no athmosphere, or gravity, then we would simply fall off the earth.  However, as gravity is pushing us down, and is affecting the winds, ect within the athmosphere, we are bound to the surface of the water.  \n\nEven though a sphere is included in the define of spheroid, it is a type of spheroid, not the inclusive answer.  The fact that gravity pushes down on us from all around, mainly because the earth is spinning so fast, and other more complicated reasons; the sphereoid holds whatever is on it's surface down to adhere to the confines and shape of such a surface.\n\nEven if the world were flat, or a flattned sphereoid, we woudln't fall off, instead, we'd loop around to the otherside becasue gravity wouldn't allow us to actually 'drop' off the side of the cliff.  The inverse gravity on the other side of the plane would pull us to it's confine, or surface.\n\nSo, there's your answer.  Sorry i didn't get it more clear the first time.\n\nMathamatically you can say that gravity pushes us from all around using a tangent direction.  That means that no matter the point you are on this earth, gravity is pushing down on you within the same confines as any other like region.  As to falling off the earth, if gravity didn't exist, we wouldn't 'fall' exactly; we would more likely be thrown or float off the earth (thrown if the world is spinning).\n\n****End Edit.******\n\nThe world indeed is a sphere, but it is not a perfect sphere, due to the rotation of the earth around it's axis, as well as the rotation of the earth around the sun (central axis), the spinning and speed of the planet make it more of a spehere that jiggles, sometimes squeezed, and sometimes elongated.  But, not by much :) Just a bit :)


Can Chlamydia be shown on your regular physical?

Up to 90% of women and men with chlamydia do not have symptoms.  When symptoms do occur, they may include painful urination, cloudy urine, and abnormal discharge from the urethra or the cervix (or both) in women. To diagnose that you have chlamydia, most doctors use a sample of fluid from the urethra or the cervix. This requires that a woman have a pelvic exam. A urine test also can be done if there is no other reason to have a pelvic or genital exam.

It could VERY WELL be that you are not drinking enough fluids ( especially water ).

Your muscles and joints need proper lubrication and water is the best solution.  Check out a book called something like, Your Body's Many Cries for Water. Good Luck, I know the feeling of neck and shoulder pain.  Always check with your HealthCare Practitioner before starting any kind of regimen.

Well, if you're talking about the vast majority of people that don'tattend achurch service on Christmas, there are a variety of reasons for that, each pertinent to the people themselves. Some people would rather spend time with family, others choose not to allign themselves with the Christian religion, others choose not to align themselves with a church. You could also simply mean why is it so hard to get to Church on Christmas, that's because church attenmdance in the U.S. is highest on Christmas and Easter.

With naming hurriances, if they ever get through the greek alphabet...?

One question I've heard a lot recently is "What happens if we run out of hurricane names?" If we're unlucky enough to deplete the year's supply of names we won't, contrary to popular opinion, simply start using names from next year's list. In that case, the National Hurricane Center will turn to the Greek alphabet and we'll have Hurricanes Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, etc.\n\nI really doubt we will ever go though all 2 (regular/greek) sets of names. If we do, I guess we will be unprepared. They could always go back and use the years names again and add a special letter/number. Like Katrina.2, Rita.A\n\nAntivirus companies do something like this when there are many versions of a certain virus.

Does the Pope still have any real power?

He only has actual power within the limits of the Vatican.  However, being the absolute authority of the Catholic Church, he exerts great influence throughout the world.

what are some extra money making opprtunities?

At least one good money making opportunity that I am involved with right now is this:  I used to be a network engineer for eight (8) years, feeling not making enough money for my family (wife & 2 kids).  I wanted a career change to financial industry.  I came across with this company, World Leadership Group / Global Equity Lending, Inc. and committed full-time Loan Coordinator helping people financing their real estate property.  I'm doing very well so far.  My total income from the last three months (Sep - Oct - Nov) surpasses half-year's income of the network engineer job.  I am so delightful with the move that I've made.  Feel free to check out my Personal-Corporate website if you're interested.

Non-profit does not = not making money.  It also does not mean volunteer.  A non-profit corporation plows all the money it makes beyond salaries and operating expense either back into the business or distributes the money for a charitable purpose.\n\nA non-profit is defined by its tax status, not by whether or not it brings in a lot of money.  The Red Cross, for example, has many many local branches and brings in millions.  But it is non-profit. \n\nA properly-organized credit union is tax-exempt under 501(c)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code.

Why do mosquito bites itch so much? Is there anything besides hydrocortisone that can make it stop itching?

why 43 cars in a typical nextel cup race?

The ammount of cars in a race use to depend on the size of the track. It was not long ago that on a short track like Martinsville there would be only 36 cars and on a large track, like Darlington or the old beach course at Daytona there could be 50 cars. The growth of NASCAR and the ammount of teams competeing required NASCAR to set a standard. 42 was used and the 43rd spot is reserved for a Past Champion who maybe didn't qualify for the race. If all active past champions qualified the 43rd position was open. Now the top 35 cars in owners points are guaranteed a spot in the race. Cars not in the Top 35, must be fast enough to make the field. The 43rd spot is still reserved for a Past Champion who isn't in the Top 35 and wasn't fast enough to qualify. If the spot is not taken by a past champion it is open to the rest of the field. Check out Jayski.com for all the rules of qualifing and provisional starting spots.


If I reinstall Windows XP, how will affect the applications (Office...) installed?

You will probably have to reinstall most of your applications. \n\nThe Registry is where many applications store information they need to work. When you reinstall XP, you also overwrite the Registry, so any information stored there by your applications will be lost.


Do you believe a Heaven exists?  If it exists, how does one get there?  Is Heaven a higher level of living?

I do not believe that heaven exists as a place that you go after you die.  I think that Heaven is a myth based on a desparate desire for people to live forever, like gods, which is part of almost every religion and has been for thousands of years.  \n\nThere is nothing new about wanting eternal life and a semblance of omnicience.  Power and knowledge are the two things that humans want more than anything, so it makes sense taht we would create a myth which involves us living forever and gaining a deep understanding of the universe after we die.


As one of the most influential scientists of the 20th cent, he studied relationships among different disciplines and problems, including the consequence of Mendelian genetics on evolutionary theory, the relationship between enzymology and genetics, and the application of mathematics and statistics to the study of biology. His works which are numerous, include (with John S. Huxley) Animal Biology (1927), The Causes of Evolution (1937), New Paths in Genetics (1941), and Biochemistry of Genetics (1954). Haldane also wrote fiction and verse as well as political works in support of his Marxist position, notably The Marxist Philosophy and the Sciences (1938). Disillusioned with Marxism in the 1940s and 50s, he eventually moved to India to conduct scientific research.\n\n\nJohn Burdon Sanderson Haldane (November 5, 1892 – December 1, 1964), who normally used "J.B.S." as a first name, was a British geneticist and evolutionary biologist. He was one of the founders (along with Ronald Fisher and Sewall Wright) of population genetics.\n\nHaldane was born in Edinburgh, the son of the medical doctor John Scott Haldane and his wife Louisa Kathleen Haldane, and descended from Scottish aristocrats (see Haldane family). His younger sister Naomi Mitchison would later become a writer. Haldane was educated at Dragon School, Eton College (which he hated) and at New College, Oxford.\n\nDuring the First World War, Haldane served with the Black Watch in France and Iraq. He was initially Bombing Officer for the 3rd Battalion before becoming a Trench Mortar Officer in the 1st. Whilst in the army, he became a socialist, writing "If I live to see an England in which socialism has made the occupation of a grocer as honourable as that of a soldier, I shall die happy".\n\nBetween 1919 and 1922 he was a fellow of New College, then moved to Cambridge University until 1932. He then moved to University College, London where he spent most of the remainder of his academic career. In the late 1950s he moved to India. The move was ostensibly a protest against the Suez War, but in reality had been on the cards for some while.\n\nIn 1924 Haldane met Charlotte Burghes (nee Franken) and the two later married. To do so Charlotte divorced her husband Jack Burghes, causing some controversy.\n\nIn 1925, Briggs and Haldane gave a mathematically superior derivation of the 1913 Michaelis-Menten equation, still a mainstay of enzyme kinetics in biochemistry. The original authors made the assumption that enzyme (catalyst) and substrate (reactant) are in quasi-equilibrium with their complex, which then dissociates to yield product and free enzyme. Briggs and Haldane arrived at an equation of the same algebraic form, but with a better interpretation of the Michaelis constant. Their derivation makes the more realistic assumption that the intermediate complex(es) are initially in a quasi-steady-state as substrate is consumed and product is formed.\n\nHaldane's famous book, The Causes of Evolution (1932), was a major work of what came to be known as the "modern evolutionary synthesis", reestablishing natural selection as the premier mechanism of evolution by explaining it in terms of the mathematical consequences of Mendelian genetics.\n\nHaldane was a keen experimenter, willing to expose himself to danger to obtain data. One experiment involving elevated levels of oxygen saturation triggered a fit which resulted in him suffering crushed vertebrae. In his decompression chamber experiments, he and his volunteers suffered perforated eardrums, but, as Haldane stated in What is Life, "the drum generally heals up; and if a hole remains in it, although one is somewhat deaf, one can blow tobacco smoke out of the ear in question, which is a social accomplishment."\n\nHe was also a great science populariser, and was perhaps the Isaac Asimov, Stephen Jay Gould, or Richard Dawkins of his day. His essay, 'Daedalus or Science and the Future' (1

what website can i go to to learn japanese?

You can learn Japanese online at the website below.


Most people would say you can't answer that and that even if you could take advice, it would depend on what your goal and timeline is.\n\nWith that said, if I had money to invest in one stock (since you said stock instead of mutual fund or otherwise), I would put it on Apple.  They have arguably the best operating system right now, and come fall/winter of 2006, their computers will be running on Intel processors.  Look ahead another year or two and they'll have those processors in their notebooks, and it looks like they want to put G5 level chips in their notebooks.  They have a solid market in mp3s with itunes and I believe many will try switching over to Apple once Intel powered notebooks come out.  I believe their stock will be possibly twice what it is valued right now in 3-4 years.

Why is the drinking age 21 when you need so much training to drink responsibly?

Drinking and driving is a great concern here (in the US) where many teenagers have access to the family automobile.  It is possible to learn how to drive in a relatively short time for example using Drivers Ed (I began on my 16th birthday - 67 years ago today!) but it takes much longer to integrate all the new knowledge with experience behind the wheel.  For example a skilled driver can spot danger well ahead even while wistling their favorite tune while a beginner may be entering a rotary (roundabout?) for the very first time.\n\nExperiments have proved that if two piano players start to drink until both are drunk at a given blood alcohol concentration, the less experienced piano player (with newly learned skills) will perform well below normal ability far sooner than the piano Pro (with well ingrained skills).\n\nTherefore it follows that new drivers drinking while still integrating skills under age 21 are more prone to lose their skills and judgement and cause fatal accidents, killing themselves and their friends and people standing or driving nearby.  Many below the age of 21 are still in high school and even drive to school.  Eighteen to 21 is an important transition age in many ways.  \n\nNo one should drink and drive - and no one wants to lose their teenaged sons or daughters.\n\nIt is good that UK children are taught moderation, hopefully in all things.


Who do you think is going to win the 'Race For Bush'?

Presuming he enters the draft, I say the 49ers. The Texans may get the first pick, but they already have a decent RB in Domanick Davis. They'd probably trade down and draft Ferguson, the juggernaut offensive lineman. Houston needs protection up front. If that happens, the Niners have no reason not to pick Reggie Bush. I'm sure a lot of fans down there will go crazy if they land him.


For different people, life is worth different things...for some, it means having a successful marriage, or having a healthy and happy family, or having successful children, or having a huge house with an expensive car or being on everyone's A-list or having a high-powered job...the list goes on and on. Each individual has to figure out what his/her purpose in life is and try to fulfill it.

The cnida, or nematocyst, which is the sine qua non of the phylum, is secreted by the Golgi apparatus of a cell termed a cnidoblast (Watson 1988). A cnida therefore is technically not an organelle, but, rather, the most complex secretory product known. Upon receiving the appropriate physical and/or chemical stimulus, a cnida fires, everting a tubule many times the length of the capsule. The tubule may deliver a toxin, may stick to a prey item, or may entangle an object, depending on the type of cnida. A cnida can fire but once, this firing is "detonation"

is it true that if someone has your same last name, that they are somehow related to you?

It's highly unlikely.  People have changed or otherwise altered their names years ago when positive ID was far from anyone's mind.\n\nAlso, there are so many variations on the spelling of a particular name.  I know that mine, which is not particularly a popular one, has probably a dozen different spellings, of which all are basically the same.  It's just as likely that some of those similar spellings are distant relatives as those with exact spellings.


Velocity distorts time.  The faster you go, the slower time goes for you.  This effect is negligable unless you are going very close to the speed of light.  In fact the formula is:\nt'=t/sqrt(1-v^2/c^2\nwhere t' is the time that has passed from a stationary observer, t is the time that has passed for you, sqrt means square root and ^2 means squared.  As you can notice, when v is small, since c^2 is so huge, you get a miniscule decimal, and 1 minus that number is basically as small as 1.0000000000001 or something, and so time is not really affected.  As v gets larger(it can never be the speed of light, then the denomonator would be zero) that fraction becomes closer to 1, so when you subtract it from one, the denomonator gets smaller and smaller, meaning t gets smaller(in order for t' to remain constant) this means that time slows down for the object moving at such velocities!  This formula is correct, it is part of Einstein's theory of relativity, and I have had to derive it myself from ordinary mechanics formulas.  \n\nAccording to the same factor, length also contracts.  It has been observed in certain tiny particles coming to the earth's surface.  These particles have a certain lifespan before they become unstable and decay.  They are also moving at a certain speed. (which is very fast; close to the speed of light.) You should simply be able to calculate v=d/t (velocity=distance/time) to find out how far they would travel.  However, they somehow travel farther than that.  When this calculated distance is put into that formula, we come up with the correct distance they actually travel!


I know this is prolly a stupid question, but i'm worried and i can't stop thinking about it... does anyone

If people do not believe in God, then why are they celebrating CHRISTmas?

Christmas is no longer a religious holiday. It is a commercial holiday endorsed by the toy companies and the greeting card industry.\nChristmas, once called Yule before Christians took over the holiday, has been around far longer than the Christian religion. It was, and still is, a Pagan holiday celebrated during the Winter Solstice.\nChristmas is a time for families to get together, to  eat good food and listen to stories you've heard a million times. It's for turkey and mashed potatoes, and Christmas trees and broken ornaments. It's for watching your father fall off the ladder trying to put those icicle lights up just the way your mother wants, and watching little children's eyes light up when they see the "From: Santa" sticker on their presents.\nAnd please, not to be rude, but if you're going to call me a hypocrite, at least have the courtesy to spell the word correctly.

President Carter pardoned those who avoided the Vietnam War draft by not registering or traveling abroad.  However, the pardon did not cover everyone who avoided service in the war.

Why is it when you are running late, everything seems to go wrong for you?

Aside from the shouting, the 1st answer is partially correct.\n\nWhen you are running late you take shortcuts and simplistic movements to get you back on time.

On Christmas Eve in Caracas, the capital of Venezuela, the streets are blocked so that people can do what?

Rollerskate to church services!\n\nVenezuelans attend a daily early morning church service between December 16th and 24th called Misa de Aguinaldo. In Caracas, the capital city, it is customary to roller-skate to this service and many neighborhoods close the streets to cars until 8 a.m. Before bedtime children tie one end of a piece of string to their big toe and hang the other end of the string out the window. The next morning, rollerskaters give a tug to any string they see hanging down. After Mass everyone rushes home for tostados and coffee.

i was told 96MB RAM+400mhz and 8.4gb can suport winxp.do u know of any free  download site?

A free download site to get XP, no.  And whoever told you that computer would run XP is dead wrong.  Maybe Microsoft says it can run it and it can run it but it would run slow and I mean very slow.  I'd be very surprised if it booted in less than five minutes.  In real life that computer will not run XP.  You'll need at least 128MB of memory, while 64MB is supported (as well as your 96MB), it isn't enough, it won't run very well.  I have Windows XP installed on an old laptop, 128MB ram, 900MHz Pentium III processor and it takes about two to three minutes to boot and once it does it is slow.  You almost can't get anything done on it in a timely fashion.  Anyone in the industry will tell you that you will need at least 256MB of ram and then, in that case you could get by with a 700MHz processor.  I installed XP on a desktop with a Pentium III 700MHz processor and 256MB of ram and it ran it like a charm.  I'm sorry to say that your computer would barely run with XP on it.\n\nAs far as getting it for free, that's illegal and pirated versions of Windows XP will not validate when you run Windows update.\n\nIf you want a free operating system try Linux, it's open source and it's free.  I think SuSE is a good distro to start with.  But, it may not support all your hardware as far as graphics, sound cards or networking devices go.  But the latest version will run on your system just fine.


What is Sarah Michelle Gellar up to?!?!!?


How did "black comedy" and "rap music" evolved from minstrel shows in America?

Minstrel shows were obstensibly a caricature of African-American culture, reaching the height of their popularity in the mid-19th Century.\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minstrel_show\n\nBy and large, rap and hip-hop developed in the 1970's as a natural progression from disco, jazz, beat poetry, raggae, and other African Diasporic cultural genres interacting with each other and creating something new.\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hip_hop_music\n\nHumor, as an entertainment genre, created and performed by African-Americans doesn't have much of a presence in American popular culture until the 70's.\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_sitcom\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Search?search=african+american+comedians&go=Go\n\nIn this way, there's not much of a direct relationship between minstrel shows and contemporary African-American entertainment in terms of "lineage."  However, racism - of which minstrel shows are one example - is a frequent topic of discussion.\n\nExample - In the "When Keeping It Real Goes Wrong" sketch of Chappelle's Show Season 2 episode 7: Dave plays Vernon Franklin, an African-American yuppie who feels like an "Uncle Tom" because he likes and gets along with his white co-workers.  So instead of letting an awkward comment from co-worker and mentor Frank Murphy slide, he over-reacts.\n\nFrank: Vernon, great job buddy.  You da man!  Give me some skin, huh?\n\nVernon: Get your m*f*in hand out of my face, man.  You heard me m*f*er get your hand out of my face!  What you think this is - just shake my hand like a man! .. 'Gimme some five, on the black-hand side, with all this crazy jive'?  That's b*s*.  Do you want a little soft-shoe?  Should I juggle some watermelon? Man; f* all that!\n\nObviously, the humor is in the over-reaction.  But at the same time, Chappelle is tapping into the sensitivity many people have concerning racial stereotypes: The comment about "dancing a soft-shoe" is a direct reference to minstrel show caricaturing of African-Americans.

I have neighbor that no respect to his parents and he call me I'm hore which s not true.what shouldIdo?tostop?

To stop him? Nothing, stopping him wouldn't be a good idea and probably couldn't be done by being nice about it.  After all, hes not a nice person.  The best thing you can do is ignore him, if he knows he can't get to you, he'll get bored of bothering you.

How has Harold Pinter's Nobel Prize speech been received in the USA and in England?

There has been a little bit of right-wing attention to the speech in the US -- saying it shows how anti-American the world is.  But mostly it has drawn little attention, because the US doesn't spend a lot of time giving attention to 1) playwrights, or 2) foreign culture.


if a woman sleeps with a pair of identical twins and gets pregnant, can the true father be determined?

actually, that's not 100% true.  identical twins have the same genotype at birth, so most simple paternity tests would NOT be able to tell a difference.\n\nHowever, as twins age (and we hope they have if you're sleeping with them), certain genes are activated in one and not in the other.  This means that more sophisticated genetic testing MIGHT be able to tell a difference.\n\nOtherwise, we figure you're pretty safe.  I hope it was a good threesome!

Why are honey bees appearing outside at night, in the dark and cold?

It is possible these were drones. For bees September through December can be the beginning of a new cycle.\n\nI quote:"The time of day that drones fly in search of a mate depends on many factors, such as the geographic location, day length, and temperature. Drones usually fly from the hive in large numbers between 11 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. Morning or early afternoon flights may last 2 or 3 hours. Later flights are shorter. When out of the hive, drones congregate in "mating areas," which may serve to attract virgin queens. These areas usually are less than 100 feet from the ground and seem to be associated with land terrain."

The scientific answer is very long which involves dipole scattering, charged particles vector potential and much more.  There is a simple answer though.  Think of how prism works.  When a light hits the prism, what happens?  The answer is the prism breaks the white light into visible color, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and violet (these are the rainbow color).  Our atmosphere is filled with dust particles.  So when sun ray hits the particles in the atmosphere, it breaks the white light like the prism.  The color blue has the strongest wavelength out the rainbow colors.  Therefore, it effects more than the red and green wavelength, causing the surrounding air to appear blue.  But during the sunset, the sun light passes farther through the atmosphere causing them to deflect and decrease the blue color. So sunset appear to be red.


how can you get a better IPO allocation at a brokerage firm [ schwab etrade ]?

Become a bigger customer with them - i.e. trade more and keep more assets at the firm. Regardless, Schwab gets very limited IPO allocations from the managing underwriters, so you are unlikely to be able to get very much of anything other than a less than attractive deal. Sorry.


Is there a safe way to invest in a work from home project? how can you tell it is not a scam?

The fact that you use the word "invest" in the same sentence as "work from home" is a danger flag!  Never send anyone you don't know any money for any such scheme!\n\nHow do you know if it's a scam?  Easy!\n\nIt's always a scam!!\n\nHere's what consumer advocate and expert Clark Howard says about the subject:\n\n"The bottom line is that you make money doing something you already know how to do. You set up a business by making phone calls, networking and getting your name out, often times using your current or past employers. Paying money up front should never occur! If they tell you to pay $30 or $60 for all of the supplies, it's likely you won't get anything but some more ads from the company. You get into the system with an employer first and then you work up to working from home – not the other way around. You find work the same way you would if you were interviewing for a work-in-the-office job. There are skills you have that you may be able to use in an entrepreneurial fashion from home. You can save a lot of money starting a business from home. So, think about that instead of thinking it will all be provided for you in a kit."


how to copy content of one hard disk to another empty hard disk.?

Easiest way is to use the utilities available from the hard drive manufacturer.  All new hard drives come with a CD that gives you the option to copy everything from your old hard drive to your new one.  Plug in both drives, boot from the CD, and copy.  This is probably the best way as it doesn't use an operating system to copy contents over to the new drive (the operating system locks/hide certain files while in use).  It would, of course, only serve them well to provide such a feature.


Why was Major General Carlos Brewer demoted to Colonel after commanding the 12th Armored Divison?

His promotion to Major General was likely a war-time promotion, which by definition reverts to the lower level once his position in charge of the division was eliminated. He would have to be a general of some sort to be able to give orders to every member of the division. He was ostensibly removed because of his age, but I'm sure the fact that the division failed its readiness test didn't help anything.

DB: This is Earth and Sky. A listener wants to know, "Can people actually shatter glass by singing a particular note?"\n\nJB: To understand the answer to this, you need to know that every object has a resonant frequency -- that's the natural frequency at which an object vibrates. If you could run a damp finger along the rim of a glass, you might hear a faint, ghostly hum -- the resonant frequency of the glass. To shatter the glass, the singer's voice has to be able to match that frequency.\n\nDB: Also, the singer has to sing very loudly. A jackhammer operates at a loudness of about 90 decibels. The human threshold for pain comes at about 120 decibels. To shatter a glass, a singer has to produce a note with an ear-splitting intensity of about 135 decibels.\n\nJB: And the singer also needs to hold that note for at least two to three seconds -- for the vibration to build up enough to cause the glass to shatter. It helps to have the right kind of glass, too -- a large one -- with thin, nearly vertical sides. In the late '70s, laboratory experiments with a professional soprano and a trumpet player showed that neither could shatter glass. The famed tenor, Enrico Caruso, was said to be able to do it -- but his wife denied it. \n\nDB: So there are physical conditions under which a human voice should be able to break a glass. But it's improbable that an unamplified human voice could actually do it. With thanks to the National Science Foundation, we're Block and Byrd for Earth and Sky.\nAuthor(s): Marc Airhart


How to find the lateral area of a triangle?

sorry i made a mistake....this is correct...\ndivide the base by 2.  Now you have a right triangle.  the height is the same, but the base is now 3.  pygathora (spelling, whatever) theorm is A squared + B squared = C squared.  c is the side opposite the right angle, a and b are the other sides.  so 3 squared + 4 squared is 9 + 16 = 25. The square root of 25 is 5, so that is the length of the side.  the volume = area of base times height.  Area of a triangle is 1/2 base times height.  so 3 (one half of 6) times 4 = 12.  times this by height of 8 = 96 cubic units. largest rectangular side is the 6 (the longest side) times 8 = 48 units squared. hope this helped.  the lateral area is the area of the sides added together. so C times 8 = 40 (area of one side)  add the other side of equal area (the C from the second triangle we got when we split the first one) 40 + 40 = 80.  Add the third side of length 6 times 8 = 48.  80 + 48 is 128 (in units squared).  or all sides added up 5 + 5 + 6 = 16 times 8 = 128.


how long does it take for clay to turn into a solid?

Strictly speaking clay always consists of a solid with intermittent layers of liquid. \n\nThe single clay particles are well-defined crystals, plates 3 or 4 atoms thick which are stacked. Molecules (e.g. water, ammonia, urea) can enter and widen the distance between the plates, enabling them to glide along those plates. Enough molecules between the plates, and the clay becomes malleable. Even more, and you can have a suspension of more or less isolated plates with absorbed molecules.\n\nWhen producing ceramics, either malleable clay is shaped by hand, or suspended clay is allowed to dry on a mold. Before burning the object, all free water must be dried out or small vapour bubbles might expand strongly and damage the shape.\n\nThe dried object then is heated slowly so that the absorbed molecules are allowed to evaporate without causing damage, too. This as well as the drying causes the object to shrink a bit.\n\nFinally, the clay particles get into contact with other particles and form chemical bonds in the contact area. This is called sintering.

Who had made the theory that a black hole could exist before man even seen one?

Amazingly enough, the first record of such idea dates back to 1783! An English geologist and astronomer named John Michel knew that the speed needed to break away from a planet (known as the "escape velocity") depended on the planet's diameter (how big across it is) and its mass (how "heavy" it is). He wondered if it was possible to have a planet with an escape velocity greater than the speed of light: if so, that would mean that no light could escape the planet. By his calculations, it would have to be about 500 times bigger than the sun, which he figured was not too likely!\n\nIn 1916, a German physicist named Karl Schwarzschild used the at-the-time new theory of relativity to look at the problem again. Relativity says that when things go really fast (like light) or are really massive (like stars) things don't always act the way we're used to. With this new idea, Schwarzchild discovered that it is possible to have an object with such a high escape velocity.\n\nBut it wasn't until 1967 that the American astonomer John Wheeler gave these strange objects the name "black hole".

The concept of men wearing earrings has many meanings. Some of the more popular notions as I understand them are to show the world that they are unique, different, and not afraid to take chances. Other explanations I have heard: They are secure in their manhood and they are a one of kind individual.  I once heard someone use the analogy that earrings to day on men is like long hair on men back in the 60’s and 70’s.

What is the appropriate way to address a divorced woman: Miss or Mrs?

The traditional solution was that a divorcee was still Mrs....as a married woman, she was addressed as Mrs.John Soandso, after a divorce, she would become Mrs. Maidenname Soandso. NEVER Mrs. Mary Soandso.\n\nNow, it is really a matter of her personal preference, she can continue as Mrs.Soandso, or become Ms. Soandso, she can use both names together, with either Mrs. or Ms., or she can drop her married name and return to just using her maiden name, with Miss, Ms. or Mrs.\nThe one thing she can't do is be Miss Soandso.\n\nIf it's how YOU should be addressed, take your pick, if this is about how to address someone else, asking what she prefers is never wrong.

Yes, God hears your prayers. Too many people don't believe because they can't see with their own eyes. If things aren't right in front of people, then they become skeptical. Believing in God is believing in the unknown. But God does listen and does hear prayers. Don't think though that he always answers the way you want. Prayers are usually answered based on your own good, whether it is what you want or not.


I do not think you should make a decision based on stereotypes of a student population. Though many students may be rich snobs, that doesn't mean you have to be, or that you must hang out with that kind of crowd.\n\nHowever, your concerns about work level and grade competitiveness are valid. It seems like if there is a lot of work, you probably learn a lot more than less rigorous institutions. If you're sure you want to learn business, then work is what you want. And I'm sure you'll still have fun no matter the work level. But at the end of your education, both degrees are probably similar in value, if not practically equal. Though everybody hears about coming out of Wharton with a six-digit salary, that's a result of a great reputation.\n\nI would apply to both schools, but not early decision anywhere. (It's probably too late to apply anywhere early anymore.) Don't worry about not getting in; keep your options open. It seems to me that you prefer Babson at heart. Just because another school's reputation is great shouldn't affect your individual college decision.

Are there too many people in the world, if so what can we do about it?

There is a phrase that scientists use called Carrying Capacity which is the amount of a species that the environment can hold due to limiting factors which are any biotic (living factors) or Abiotic (nonliving factors)factors that restrict the existence, reproduction, or distribution of organisms. When the number of a species reaches or exceeds the carrying capacity then limiting factors begin to take effect such as the amount of food available. Also when the carrying capacity is exceeded competition begins for food, shelter, and reproductive rights. There are three types of growths: stable  growth, rapid growth, and slow growth.An example of stable growth would be the U.S. an example of rapid growth would be China. Since not all countries have the same growth rate it is hard to say whether there are too many people in the world. So really it is a matter of opinion. In some countries there are to many people, such as third world countries, but in other countries there are not too many people. As for what we can do about it, there is nothing we really can do besides what China does (limits each household to one child). What happens is when the carrying capacity is exceeded there is not enough food, shelter, etc. for all the individuals in a population. As a result those individuals die and the population's size eventually falls below the carrying capacity(which is what happens in most third world coutries). This is referred to as 'Survival of the Fittest'. It's horrible to imagine but it's the truth and theres not much we can do about it.

Why is the planet Pluto called "Pluto" ?

The name retained for the planet is that of the Roman god Pluto, and it is also intended to evoke the initials of the astronomer Percival Lowell, who predicted that a planet would be found beyond Neptune. The name was first suggested by Venetia Burney, at the time an eleven-year-old girl from Oxford, England. Over the breakfast table, one morning her grandfather, who worked at Oxford University's Bodleian Library, was reading about the discovery of the new planet in the Times newspaper. He asked his granddaughter what she thought would be good name for it. Venetia thought that as it was so cold and so distant it should be named after the Roman God of the underworld. Professor Herbert Hall Turner cabled his colleagues in America with this suggestion, and after favourable consideration which was almost unanimous, the name Pluto was officially adopted and an announcement made by Slipher on May 1, 1930


1. Ask people doing the kind of thing  you want to do what major they had.\n2. Ask them if they would do the same thing if they had to do it over again\n3. Do a major in something you do well in. Remember your grade point average is a picture of YOU when you graduate\n4. Have exceptional writing and speaking skills when you finish college\n5. Get some experience even if it's just every summer working.\n6. Notice I have not named a major? Why because in most cases it doesn't matter. Yes, if you want to be a nurse or an accountant or some specialized type you do, but for most people it is not an over riding issue. Follow your heart it doesn't lie. Don't do only what your parents tell you because they may be well meaning, you have to do the homework, they DON'T. If i had a dime for every student who came in to see me and said well , i got my first degree but I did it because of what someone told me to do now I want to do it for myself" I could have retired years ago.\n\nIn summary, Don't let not having a major beat  you up. It is not the telling thing of what you will do the rest of your life. It is only a plane ride to your first professional job. Good Luck

That's why it is important to support your immune system. Seasonal Defense combines andrographis with other immune-supporting herbs, including Fructus aurantia (six percent synephrine extract), thyme, oregano and eleuthero root for complete immune support.\n\nAndrographis has been used for centuries by many cultures. It is used widely in Ayurvedic medicine and is considered a “cold property” herb in traditional Chinese approaches; it is used to rid the body of “heat” and dispel toxins. Andrographis supports the immune system by promoting both specific and non-specific immune-response functions as well as maintaining the muscles in the respiratory system. Other studies show that synephrine may be able to help maintain the mucous membrane of the respiratory tract and that thyme and eleuthero root both have beneficial properties.\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\nBenefits: \n•  Helps the body defend against seasonal changes. \n•  Contains andrographis to help boost the immune system. \n•  Helps support mucous membrane health. \n \nPurchase Information \nSEASONAL DEFENSE (90)  \nStock No.:806-6 \nQV: 12.40 \nMember Cost: $12.40\nNon-Member Cost: $18.60  \n\nhttp://www.mynsp.com/lifemoreabundantlyinc/products/guide.aspx?stockNum=8066


Do you think what Randall, from the Apprentice, did after he won was right?

I missed the ending, but my roommate came home and filled me in.  She hasn't even been watching the show all season, and she was SO mad at Randal.  I was, too.  It's ironic that Randal claimed he had so much respect for Rebecca, and then failed to support her at all when he had the chance.  I completely lost all respect for him when I found out he did that.

Typically, if a newer version of software is installed and you want to install an older one, the program will promt you of that fact.  It may not let the install happen.  If not, you can always format your hard drive and install the version you want.  Of course, that woudl erase everything.


What is a windows WMF file and what is it used for?

Probably because it was created by Microsoft!\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Metafile\n\nWindows Metafile (WMF) is a common graphics file format on Microsoft Windows systems. It is a vector graphics format which also allows the inclusion of raster graphics. Essentially, a WMF file stores a list of commands that have to be issued to the Windows graphics layer GDI in order to restore the image.\n\nWMF is a 16-bit format introduced in Microsoft Windows 3; a newer 32-bit version with additional commands is called Enhanced Metafile (EMF). EMF is also used as a graphics language for printer drivers.
