Any person who has experienced astral projections, spiritual encounters or the like?

i regularly go astralling.  in fact, a lot of people do, whether or not they realize it in the waking world.  you see, people generally have two selves.. their physical self that houses their Waking Mind, and their Astral self.  your astral self often gets around in the astral realms, regardless of whether or not your waking mind realizes it.\n\nthere are many in the y-messenger chat rooms, religion and beliefs/paganism, that also have experience with astral projection.  i think you'll find some real-time q&a to be quite helpful.  however, it seems to be a phenomenon of the paganism rooms that the higher the number, the less people there are, and the more focused the topics.  you'll have to be patient, however.  for every month i spend on there, i maybe get a day's worth of applicable and serious conversation.  when it happens, however, it's GOOOOOOOOOOOD!\n\nas for personal experiences, i can give you a bit, but they are, indeed, quite personal...\n\ni lay down as if i'm going to sleep, and at that state between dreams and wakefullness, you'll find yourself in the perfect meditative state for astralling.  first, i Visualize (that's imagination with force and intent--sounds trite, but try it and you'll see what i mean) a "dream vista" of my choosing.  this can be whatever i wish.  as the vista becomes tangible to me, that is as i manifest unto it.  the FIRST thing i do is raise a shield around me as i sit and collect my thoughts.  to do that, again, Visualization.  in fact, i wouldn't go ANYWHERE in the astrals until you're MORE THAN COMFORTABLE with forming a vista and a shield.  as for the nature of yours, that is up to you.  :)  it is also up to you the form in which you manifest, but i suggest human, as it's what you know in this life.  don't get ahead of yourself!  :)\n\nwhen i feel i'm ready (don't rush it!) i stand up, stretch my legs, and decide where i want to go.  sometimes, it's certain spirit-energy-hubs.  these often manifest themselves in the mortal mind as tangible cities.  there's so many that i cannot list them all here.  after making sure no entity has any pressing business with me, i set off.  sometimes, instead of going to a public place, i'll try and find a few astral friends i've met over the years, and we find a nice secluded spot and chill.  once in a while, and i'm sure this happens to a lot of astrallers, i get attacked.  i'm sure some people find such scary, but you can get attacked in the physical realm, as well...  so you're really no safer here nor there.  i suggest dealing with astral attackers in a "non-lethal" manner (there's a reason that's in quotes), as sometimes entities have a big brother that they run back to for help...  get the picture?  hee hee!\n\nsometimes my spirits and i go and find old astral entities that we know of and ask their advice on certain topics.  sometimes we don our helmets and have a friendly sparring match, just for fun.  i want to make note that i'm not denoting ownership when i say "my spirits".  you can translate that as "my friends".. showing how we relate, not some vile master-slave relationship.\n\nsometimes the astralling continues long after my body has actually fallen asleep, yet the mind continues to be conscious of what goes on.  this is not always the case, however.  once in a while the astralling session just fades out and i rejoin my sleeping body.  sometimes, i continue the whole night through, and then the alarm clock goes off and interrupts me.  Sure, i have to go to work, but there's few things more irritating than having a particularly good astralling session interrupted by something so mundane.  \n\nthe next night, when i "jack back in", so to speak, i often find that my astral self is still continuting whatever it was that we left off with..  or even finished that up and then began a new task.\n\ni

I don't think there are grounds for impeachment, but going to war was definitely wrong.  The reasons he gave the American public for going to war turned out to be lies.  There were no WMD.  When Bush was campaigning they harped on the fact that they WERE NOT interested in nation building.  Now?  "We can't pull out of Iraq.  It is our responsibility to rebuild their government and get them on their feet."  Every time anyone tries to use 9-11 to justify the war I throw up a little in my mouth.  Osama bin Laden and al Quida are responsible for 9-11.  One war, billions of dollars and thousands of American lives later, Osama bin Laden is still free and al Quida is still in operation.  Sound like a success to you?

is bush the worst or the best man for the job? explain?

at this point in time i would say he is definitely the right person for the job! let me state for the record that i am a democrat and frankly i am appalled at the tatics of my party. bush said from the beginning of our war on terror that this different type of war would be long, costly and ugly. i fail to see where he was not correct. \n  yeah lets listen to my party that wants to cut and run, that will send a real message to the terrorists... america has no stomach for the job and can simply be waited out.\n   come on ...bin laden thought he could attack us with impunity due to our reactions to the bombings of our marines in lebanon, the uss cole, the embassy bombings etc. he further believed that we could easily be defeated because in his own words, they had defeated the world's strongest military when they drove the soviets out of afghanistan. well he was wrong then and he and his kind are wrong now.it would be a shame for our military to win all the battles and have our politics cost them the war because we don't like body counts. all i can say is that if this same point of view ruled the day in world war 2  we would all be speaking german or japanese.  how quickly we forget that on 9-11 we were attacked without provocation and had over 3,000 fellow american citizens killed.  more than in the attack at pearl harbor!!!!\n did saddam attack us on 9-11? of course not, but once the war on terror started  iraq was a likely choice to be the next area of conflict.  look at the facts...iraq continually fired on us and coalition planes enforcing the no fly zones agreed upon as a condition of saddam's surrender after us and coalition forces drove him from kuwaite under un security council mandates. he used chemical weapons on the kurds,he kicked out the un weapons inspectors and impede them from competing their u n mandated mission of locating and destroying weapons of mass destruction. he further tried to manipulate the oil for food program so that he could continue the ressurection of his military.in spite of all those clear violations and over a decade of more resolutions and extended timetables and deadlines saddam would not comply with u n mandates. so it is obvious to me that more mandates and deadlines were useless and if he was not producing wmds why did he not cooperate with weapons inspectors?\n  when bush went to the u n to outline a plan, the u n would not even enforce its own mandates... big surprise there huh? our so called allies ..particularly those in europe had no backbone or taste for this dirty war, yet even today are demanding their right to participate in the rebuilding of iraq so they can make profits at the expense of american blood! they were quite willing to leave the dictator in power on the backs of his people so they could make a buck.  really, i must ask... am i the only democrat that sees this?\n oh and as an interesting side bar   saddam plotted to assasinate the first pres. bush..that in it self was justification to remove saddam from power...i dont care what your political party is, he wanted to assasinate the president of the u s a !\n regarding legal rights of terrorists and enemy combatants..it really is simple according to geneva convention rules, if you want the protection of geneva rules you must abide by them..if you do not,you forfeit your right to claim protection under them. for example you must be a uniformed combat soldier representing a country or government, you may not hide among or attack civillians.etc.  i say the terrorists fail on those counts alone. further more in the early stages og gulf war 2, they executed american pows another clear violation of geneva rules.\n  so to think that bush is somehow wrong for spying on good americans here at home who are e mailing or making phone calls to suspected terrorists abroad is so rediculous that it defies common sense. add to that the so called mistreatment of terrorist detainees, where were all the activists screaming about

What r the applications of quallitive & quantitative analisis in analytical chemistry?

Qualitative analysis answers the question what substances or elements are within a sample. Quantitative analysis answers the question how much of these substances are within the sample.\n\nIn both cases, a negative answer means "we didn't find anything using the methods we had", not "there isn't anything of this substance inside".


Typically, the center is the tallest man on the floor. Traditional centers stay close to the basket on offense, where they can use their size to get good shots because they are so close. Often these are dunks, layups, put backs (shots off of a rebound), or hook shots. They're also expected to be the best rebounders, since they are taller than everyone else.\n\nOn defense, centers again stay close to the basket because if a guard or forward gets around the person defending them, the center can still slide over and block or alter the shot (since presumably, he is taller than the player trying to shoot). They are again expected to rebound.\n\nNon-traditional centers, particularly those from foreign countries (no idea why), move farther from the basket to shoot. Some, like China's Wang Zhu-Zhu, are actually good three point shooters. Having a center like this is sometimes considered an advantage, since traditional centers are not used to guarding a player far from the basket.

what is the quickest way to get rid of a cold?

When you feel the cold just starting, drink a shot (one is enough) of any 80 proof alcohol (hope you're over 21 ;). If you were late and the cold is full blown, drink lots of fluids. Common cold is a virus, and viruses wash away. Try tea with lemon or honey, chicken soup is excellent. Avoid things that make you thirsty: carbonated drinks, coffee etc. If you can tolerate warm milk, it's a great thing to have. My colds don't last for more then two days.

is there a survey tool regarding to the responses of ob-gyne & delivery room patients to male nurses???help!!!

Don't know of any "out of the box" surveys. Here are a couple of articles that you can read. You can get some ideas from them, and/or use some of their methodology to make up your own survey.\n\nOne thing to consider is whether you might want to do an interview rather than a questionnaire? Some of the studies below use an interview format.\n\nCheck out this article on gender preferences in ob doctors, which used an interview format:\nhttps://www.acog.org/from_home/publications/green_journal/wrapper.cfm?document=/from_home/publications/green_journal/2002/ong13500fla.htm\n\nThis study used a questionnaire on attitudes toward male nurses:\nPreferences for female and male nurses: the role of age, gender and previous experience – year 2000 compared with 1984. By: Chur-Hansen, Anna., Journal of Advanced Nursing, Jan2002, Vol. 37 Issue 2, p192-198.\n\nNot exactly what you wanted, but very related:\nA study to ascertain gynaecological patients’ perceived levels of embarrassment with physical and psychological care given by female and male nurses. By: Lodge, N; Mallett, J; Blake, P; Fryatt, I., Journal of Advanced Nursing, May97, Vol. 25 Issue 5, p893-907.\n\nHere is a Japanese study:\nTomishima Y. Takahashi Y. Sugimoto K. Ishiya M.

Which country was the site of conflict between USA and Russia?

Sites of conflict weren't limited to Cuba and Afghanistan--there were ideological conflicts throughout the world at the time. Many countries in South America, Asia, etc. Though the US and USSR didn't ever really have direct contact, the cold war was very real though many people at the time didn't want to recognize that it actually was a war. \n\nThe USSR was actively promoting Communism throughout the world to extend their reach. Luckily Reagan had the insight to know that just because they weren't attacking us--the spread of Communism would be just as good as if they were attacking us. Reagan countered the USSR's pursuits and won. I think the USSR would still exist today if Reagan hadn't actively countered them and given the US "peace through strength". Because he refused to play Russia's game, they were forced into trying to keep up with the US's military and nuclear buildup which eventually lead them to an economic crisis--forcing them to snap out of their ploys of world domination.


Where can one get the best interest rate on an investment property (duplex) while not paying points?

Well, if you do not want to pay points (by this I am guessing the origination fee) you would get a much higher interest rate.  The origination fee is how Mortgage Brokers get paid.  The higher interest rate given, the more money the broker makes, which is why you would get the higher rate without paying points.  My recommendation: pay the points, and get the lower rate if you will be in it long term.  If it is short term 2 years or less, you might consider the higher rate with no points.

What is true about graphite? Please explain or give a website to back up your answer i dont understand this?

All are true except that each atom is bonded to four others.  Carbon's valence is four, and so it can only form four bonds--by having double bonds, there is no room to bond to four atoms.  Diamond, on the other hand, has each carbon atom bonded to four other atoms, but no double bonds.\n\nGraphite forms in sheets, with no covalent linking between pifferent sheets.  That is why it is so soft.\n\nthe picture on the second link does not show the double bonds, but if you pick a single direction and regard all parallel bonds in that direction to be double bonds, the valence states will make sense.

How do you find domain and range of pre-cal compositions?

The best way to find domain and range is to graph the function. If you graph the function that you have given as an example, you will notice that it is undefined at x=0. Since it is undefined at this point, the domain of the function is the real numbers minus 0. The range in general is slighly more difficult to find, but in this case is easy to find. This function goes to positive infinity when x approaches 0 from the left, and negative infinity when x approaches 0 from the right. The range of this function is all real numbers.

Why there is someone look like u although not twins?

This is called Doppleganger:  A double, an identical replica of a person. The idea behind this is that everyone has a Doppleganger, an identical copy of themselves somewhere in the world. If the person is good, then the Doppleganger will be evil and vice versa. It is even said that if the two should meet, then they will both perish. \n\nAlthough there is no evidence that Dopplegangers exist, some people have actually reported claims of witnessing what they believe to be their Doppleganger. In all likelihood however, Dopplegangers are an aspect of myth only.


i am rebuilding my snowmobile , where can i find charts that show the whole breakdown of the engine?


Is there a housing bubble or is it all media hype.?

Your question asks if the state of the housing market is one extreme (bubble) or the other (media hype), but I think the answer lies somewhere in between and also depends on your personal circumstances.\nThe general market appears to moderating and by "moderating" I mean the rate of housing price growth is slowing.  This doesn't mean that prices are falling.  The media often misses this subtle, yet important distinction.  Slowing price increases are a good thing because it means that the market is starting to act more rationally.  We all know that prices can't continue to increase at the same rate they have for the past 3-5 years (+10 to +30% a year).  So, the moderation of these increases are not a sign of trouble.  They're a sign of a return to rationality.\nWhat would be a sign of trouble?  A few things come to mind:\n- A substantial increase in job losses and unemployment on a national and, more importantly, a local level.  Think about how business is doing in the L.A. area and where it is likely to go in the future.\n- A substantial increase in the long-term interest rates would be worrisome because fewer people will be able to afford to buy your house for a high price.  Notice I said "substantial".  Everyone knows that rates will go up slightly over the next year or two.  But that's natural as our financial markets try to get to a normal interest rate level.  Our current rates are abnormally low and returning to 7% ish isn't such a bad thing.\n- We restrict immigration substantially.  Immigration trends are driving the demand for first-time home buyers in the U.S.  If we restrict the number of people who can enter our country, become productive citizens and eventually buy a home, we'll lower demand for housing.  Especially in Los Angeles!\nI don't trust the media to give me a balanced view of the housing (or any other) market because that's not their objective.  Media's goal is to get you to watch and they wouldn't get very many viewers if they said that the market would likely just moderate going forward with only slight increases for the future.  They get much more attention when they find data that will allow them to make dire predictions and predict doom and gloom.\nCurrently, the prices of houses are being driven by people's ability to afford the monthly payment and the supply of people looking to purchase houses.  I think that increasing rates will lower the prices a little bit, but I don't think prices will fall significantly causing many people to lose many and file bankruptcy.  I personally don't know anyone who is overleveraged and would be devastated by a decline in housing prices.  They would just continue paying their mortgages and living in the house.  However, when I talk to people about the market, they all think there is a significant population of people who are going bankrupt.  I'm not sure there is much real data to support this paranoia, however.\nNow, to address the second part of my answer -- your personal situation.  If you buy a house for the right personal reasons, then you won't have to worry about future housing prices as much.  If you're committed to staying the local area and you have professional job stability, then you will have more security to ride out any short-term price fluctuations.  Additionally, you should consider the value of owning versus renting along other lines than pure investments.  What is the value of owning your own residence and being able to upgrade various amenities when and how you please?  (Hey - new jet tub! Granite countertops!)  What is the value of being able to demonstrate security to your family and friends?  (Honey, I really am committed to building a family!)  What is the value of not having to deal with landlords and other renting hassles?\nI'm not saying there are concrete answers to those questions, but you should consider them and if they have high value to you, then


what is the meaning of following terms with reference to computer hardware. FSB, PCI, SATA HDD, Bays, DMI, USB

FSB = Front Side Bus\nIt is the connection between the CPU, memory, and other system components.\n\nPCI = Peripheral Component Interconnect\nIt is an technology that allows user to expand the functionality of their computer.  It is usually expressed as a "PCI Slot" (the connector on the computer) whereas "PCI cards" deliver the functionality.  For example, there are PCI sound cards, PCI network cards, PCI TV tuner cards, etc.\n\nSATA HDD = Serial Advanced Technology Attachment Hard Disk Drive\nA hard drive that uses serial technology instead of parallel.  On a consumer level, it just means that the connection from the hard drive to the motherboard has changed.  It use to be parallel or PATA.  On an engineering level, the communication isn't sent in parallel fashion (several bits wide but at slow rate) but in a serial fashion (narrow width but at higher rate).\n\nBays = Probably means optical drive bay\nIn computer cases there are references to "bays".  Bays are another means to extend functionality of the computer and they come in two types: 5.25" and 3.5" bays.  5.25" bays can accomodate optical drives such as CDROMS, DVD, CD burners, and other wide products.  3.5" bays were originally designed for floppy drives but can hold anything that can fit in that bay.\n\nDMI = Desktop Management Interface\nMostly used in the workforce.  Allows system administrators to know what kind of software and hard is installed on the computer.\n\nUSB = Universal Serial Bus\nAgain, another expansion technology but is more external compared to PCI technology (which is internal to the computer).  Common uses of USB devices are USB mouse, USB web cameras, USB scanners, USB printers, USB CD burners, etc.


how managers delegate as a part of their magnagement responsibilities?

Delegating tasks to individuals that can complete the tasks is the most important part.\n\nI have seen managers give projects to the wrong staff member, because they were more well liked...and the project failed.\n\nKnow your staff and what they are capable of.  Challenge them, but be there to catch the ball if they drop it.  Also, be the first in to work, and the last to leave, as frequently as possible, so you are viewed as a manager that pulls their weight.

what's the difference between sephardics and ashkenazies? and their origin?

Askenazim are Jews whose ancestors migrated to Northern and Western Europe in the Middle Ages, especially to France and Germany. Due to expulsion from the former and persecution in the latter, they largely moved to Eastern Europe, especially Poland/Lithuania, which was an enormous and powerful country in Renaissance times.  They spoke a German dialect that eventually evolved into the Yiddish language.  Sephardim were decended from Jews who lived in the Iberian peninsula when it was ruled by the Moors.  They were expelled from Spain by Ferdinand and Isabella and moved eastwrd to Greece, Turkey, the Balkans, and other lands.  They spoke an archaic Spanish which later became Ladino.  Lately, Asian Jews whose ancestry was never European and who had lived in places like Iran since the Roman Diaspora have also started being referred to as Sephardim.

I wake up with shooting pain in my right heel, daily, how do I fix it?

I had this for a long time in my left heel and did not know what this "knife" in my foot was...until I found out that I had a ruptured disc (L4/L5 area)and the ruptured disc was pushing against the sciatic nerve that was going through the left leg...in your case the ruptured disc is pushing out on the right side and affects your right leg. You COULD stay in bed - flat - for 3 days and see if it gets better...the "red hot inflamed" nerve may calm down a bit and you might feel better...you could take Aleve to calm the inflamation of the nerve...you could get a shot of Cordisone in the spine...anywhichway...you need to see a neurologist who will take an MRI and tell you if you need surgery. In my case I am overweight and they did not want to touch me "with a ten foor pole". I healed mine by going the other way...I found a machine called VAX-D at a chiropractors and (look on google) was able to go 30 times and then I was completely out of pain and able to walk again. \nOther things you will feel with this is numbness in your right thigh...occasionally a nerve-line pain all the way down your right leg and also a "spray" of pain over the top of your right foot. You SHOULD have also a "pilot-lite" burning feeling in your lower back on the right side of the spine where the actual disc is pushing. This is the line of the nerves...from the lower back through the right side of the leg into the foot. Go look at a picture of the nerves that go through the body. \nBonati Institute in Florida will also do Laser surgery for this...but in my case it did not work.\nGood luck!\nThe Oracle

what is the nurtition content of almonds?

Almonds have 40% of the USRDA of Vitamin E, 20% of Vitamin B2, and 20% dietary fiber. Almonds are high in monounsaturated fats (the "good" kind) and are known to help lower cholesterol.\n\nMany of the articles I've found suggest eating mixed nuts to get the advantages of each!\n\n"Almonds have slightly more vitamin E than walnuts, and much more magnesium. Walnuts, stand out as the only nut with an appreciable amount of alpha-linolenic acid, the only type of omega-3 fat you’ll find in a plant-based food. Peanuts (which technically are legumes) lead in the folate category. Cashews have even more magnesium than almonds (83 milligrams per ounce vs. 73) but they lag behind in vitamin E. If it’s selenium you’re after — as many men are, because the mineral might protect against prostate cancer — then look to Brazil nuts: One ounce has almost 10 times the Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) of 55 micrograms"

Why would the Yankees ever want Nomar Garciapara to play first base?

They are probably looking at him as a utility player. Yes, 1B is fine in a supporting role, but Nomar can also play outfield and sub just about anywhere in the infield. The real question is why would Nomar go to the Yankees? He'd have a much better shot at playing day-to-day at 3B on another team, such as the Dodgers.

Is Yahweh the proper name of GOD (Genesis 1:1)--Scripture references please?

Not that pronunciation, no. You're dealing with a word that has no vowels in Hebrew so there is any number of pronunciation combinations. Perhaps the safest transliteration into English is YHWH.  But how do you pronounce that?\n\nThe correct pronunciation was lost after the destruction of the Jerusalem Temple. The pronunciation "Jehovah" comes from a 16th century Christian scholar who applied the vowels of one Hebrew name for God to the consonants YHWH.  That's hardly a "kosher" method seeing as it was construed hundreds of years after the correct pronunciation had been forgotten, is it?\n\nFor a detailed analysis of the word (and scripture refrences), see the link below which is what I found at short notice.

I have been married with american citizien for 4yrs.Would devorce effect my permenent resident status?

There is a question you have to answer first.  When you were provided residency on your "Green Card" it was initally a conditional residency.  Your code of adjustment would be CR(number).  If you have had this condition removed, you are a lawful permanent resident, divorced or not.  If not, your residency is dependent on your marriage.  Additionally, if you choose to file for citizenship, you are required to wait 3 years if married to a citizen, and 5 years if you are not.

Unless you write or use a special or custom class loader class files are loaded from the CLASSPATH. The can be defined as a environment variable or you can pass it in as a option to the java runtime. So you don't actually "register" when usuing just the JVM. If using some Java J2EE applicaitons / servers they will provide a configuration or installation aide that will build the classpath for you. Without knowing what environment your running on / using I can only point you to the -classpath option at the command line.\n\nCheers, good luck

Well i would put a towel under you while your sleeping so theres less of a chance of leaking onto the sheets! Wear a tampon and a pad. That works better than just wearing one or the other. Also wear regular underwear not thongs or strings that way the pad stays on better and does'nt shift around while your sleeping. Seeing a doctor may help also.


Will the Boston Celtics make the playoffs this year?

I'm going to be honest, from my perspective, and say, not a chance.  The east has too many good teams this year.  The Central Division could send all five teams.  That would leave two spots for the other division leaders, and then one other spot would be left.  They just don't have the talent this year.


As a Hindu we are taught that God is big and vast. It is taught that there are so many religions because every person experiences God differently. These experiences, along with differing desired spiritual goals, are the main reason why there are so many religions.\n\nThere is a simple story told about four blind men who walk in a forest. Each of them comes across an elephant, briefly. One touches the trunk of the elephant, another only its ear. Another man touches the tail, and the fourth one touches the body. Each of these four men have had an individual encounter with an elephant. Each of them was only able to touch a part of the elephant for the brief time the elephant was passing. To each of them an elephant is a very different thing. The meaning is that God is like the elephant. He is big and when we reach to touch God, we can only touch a small part. There are different religions because each of us is touching a different part of the elephant, each religion has touched a different part of God. Religions don't all necessarily have the same goals, either. Yes they want to promote peace and unity, but think for a moment....some want to go to Heaven and be with their personalize manifested experience of God, like Jesus, Krishna. Some people want to just see their family and ancestors in Heaven and some want to experience the paradise of Heaven. Some aren't reaching for Heaven at all, but merely finding peace right now in this life and experiencing God right now, in this moment and not concerned with a future. These are all very different spiritual goals, all touching different parts of God. God manifested to them in various different ways and thus we react to the experiences that those manifestations bring.\nWhy do religions fight? It is usually over not being respectful of other's experiences and trying to force others to experience what they experience. Sometimes conflicts aren't even really about religion at all, but since religion is expressions of our deepest Self, these conflicts begin to get expressed by us in the only way we can understand such things, through our religion.

How can you do school without being realy mad that you are doing it?

One of the things we all have to deal with, increasingly as you get older by the way, is that life is full of things you must do, even though you'd rather not.  I really do like my job, but if I didn't have to get up and go to work every morning I wouldn't.  \n\nIf you do not learn to accept that some things simply must be done whether you like them or not, then you are going to be unhappy most of your life.

As soon as I feel a cold coming on, I use Zicam.  It works.  The cold either goes away or if I have waited too long, the cold isn't as bad as it could be.  I have been using Zicam for the past three years and carry it with me during the winter months.  It comes as a nasal spray, lozenges and even on Q-Tips for children.  It's the best thing I know and have experienced to treat a cold.

I think it depends on your reason for learning sign language.  You may find some cheap classes offered through you community.  A lot of community colleges may offer sign language.

Usually large cities have non-profit organizations that will offer classes to the public.

Directly Quoted:\nCircumcision substantially reduces an infant´s chances of getting a urinary tract infection (UTI) during the first year of his life. Although the rate of urinary tract infections for infants is not very high (around xxx %), UTI´s are becoming increasingly difficult to treat (see here for a discussion). \nCancer of the penis - that effects xxx men in a thousand - is essentially eliminated in circumcised males. \nResearch shows that males who are circumcised have a lower risk of getting sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). In addition, partners of circumcised males are less likely to contract vaginal infections (e.g. yeast infections). \nCircumcision eliminates foreskin infections that occur throughout childhood. \nCircumcision prevents phimosis, a narrow opening that makes it impossible to retract the foreskin at a later age. \nGenital hygiene is easier after circumcision. \nCircumcision virtually eliminates the accumulation of smegma.

What do you think about Baptists voting against speaking in toungues?

I miself speak in toungues so i tink baptists need to surender their doctrine and ask for the Holy Ghost. It is normal that a person thinks that someone speaking in\ntoungues is mad,just look at Corinthians 14 and Acts 2  \nspeaking in toungues is for your own belife.If you want to prouve that speaking in toungues is a key element of christianity than remember that all profets are also speaking in toungues and it is easy to realize that a profet is real after God speaks to \nyou abaut thing you have kept hidden and abaut thing that will hape ( and hapen every time).\nBTW just so that readers know next year is gowig to be much harder that this one with more  casualties and deaths. \nThis year we had earthqaqes and flods , next year the world will also experience fire!!!!!!!!!!!!!


How much should I offer for a home in Colorado Springs, CO.?

If you have an agent, have them run a CMA (comparative market analysis) for the property.  This will tell you what other homes the same size, age and location have recently sold for.  From there, you can make a realistic offer.  I've had clients offer full price because of market demands, and I've had clients get $10-20k less because a particular area is slow.  You need more info!  You can email me if you have any further questions.


yes i do despise the red sox.  a rod is not my favorite yankee.  my reasoning behind this is because he did not come up a yankee.  he is a natural star. i feel that my favorite yankee is derek jeter. he has a lot of talent and was brought up in the yankee farm system.  i think to be a true yankee, you have to be brought up learning the ropes in the yankee farm system, anything less would consider you an accquisition in order to try to improve the team.  as we all know, the yankees do not have many farm players coming up and it is sad.  maybe if we rasied more talent, we could win our 27th.


Login to ebay.com and get registered there and there is guide "how to sell"


what does (sic) mean in a sentence or phrase ive seen it a few times and dont know?

Square brackets are most commonly used around the word 'sic' (from the Latin 'sicut', meaning 'just as'), to explain the status of an apparent mistake. Generally, sic means the foregoing mistake (or apparent mistake) was made by the writer/speaker I am quoting; I am but the faithful messenger; in fact I never get anything wrong myself. Book reviewers in particular adore to use sic. It makes them feel terrific, because what it means is that they've spotted this apparent mistake, thank you, so there is no point in writing in. However, there are distinctions within sic: it can signify two different things:\n\n1) This isn't a mistake, actually, it just looks like one to the casual eye.\n2) Tee hee, what a dreadful error! But it would be dishonest of me to correct it.

Does the Gap mistreat sweatshop workers?

This is a hard question to answer.\nMany Western companies exploit the "cheap" labour found in many developing nations. There is little reason to think that Gap is alone. In Thailand and China, the North Face (adventure gear co.) does have a reputation for some rather harsh policies toward workers there. But there are ethical questions all across the board. Nike sells $100 shoes, yet as little as $1 will actually be paid to the worker for a ridiculously long day of work. In recent months, Gap has especially come under the magnifying glass. Numerous anti [Gap] sweatshop campaigns dot the internet. Some groups claim that Gap uses physical harassment and unsafe working conditions to get their products on the shelves. Some workers have broken the silence and report that beatings and sexual harassment are a real and tangible part of how the company gets their products produced.

how fast can i see results from doing sit ups?

First, you should stick with crunches..they are less stressful on your back and focus more on the correct muscles. Then, if you cut out all fat from your diet and limit your caloric intake, you will see results in 3 - 4 weeks. That is, if you are doing a serious ab routinue of at least 25 minutes/day (with 1 day off a week).\nIf you have a not-so-healthy eating lifestyle, doing sit ups will not help and you will most likely not see any results unless you are doing a complete ab workout (obliques, crunches, roman chair, scissors, leg lifts, etc.) for at least 2 hours/day. \nThe best way is to cut fat (soda, junk food are the easiest) and gradually build into a harder and harder workout where you start at 3 sets of 30 sit ups for a week and add one set and 10 reps per set every week. In ten weeks, you will have a solid workout that will produce very good results. With every workout routine, you should be doing a cardio-vascular exercise (running, biking, brisk walking) to burn calories. And always consult a doctor for the proper workout schedule for your age and body type.

why do people let gender-discrimination continue to happen in the military?

Women are playing a big role in the War in Iraq. I think it is entirely possible for women to serve in the Infantry and other Combat Arms occupations simply because of what they have done so far in the current war. In todays kind of guerilla warfare it is actually more likely that a truck driver or other non combat arms occupation will be attacked than the infantry. This is because the Infantry train so well  and so often that the insurgents can't match up against them. Once they learn this they begin to target military units who do not train for combat as much as combat arms occupations. These are the type of units that women are allowed to take part in and consequently they often times see combat. Now the US Army is beginning to train all MOS (Military Occupation Specialties) for combat almost as much as the soldiers whos sole occupation is combat.\n\nWomen will probably experience some sort of discrimination for a long time simply because of tradition gender role stereotypes. However, eventually I think official policy will change to put women on the same level as men in most aspects of the military.

Change your friends.  You need to first go up to your friends who you get high with and tell them that you don't want to do this anymore.  Ignore them when they call you and resist the temptation to use when you're alone.  It ain't easy...  yeah, sometimes real life sucks and being high all the time is a LOT easier... but there are many other great things that life has to offer that you can't possibly experience while high:  You won't get a great executive job, nice car, awesome wife, smart kids, or real friends you can depend on when you need them if you keep using.  Start in small steps, keep moving forward, and try as hard as you can not to fall back into your old ways.

How do I install more Ram on my compute?

1.   Determine what kind of RAM you need, and whether your computer has enough open slots to hold it. The new RAM should match the existing RAM's specifications and configuration.  \n  \n2.   Shut down the computer and leave it plugged into the surge suppressor.  \n  \n3.   Disconnect all peripheral devices, such as the monitor, from the computer. (Image 1)  \n  \n4.   Remove the computer cover. (Image 2)  \n  \n5.   Ground yourself to the computer with professional grounding equipment like an anti-static wristband or hold a metal part of the chassis.  \n  \n6.   Remove any cards or internal components necessary to give yourself unobstructed access to RAM sockets.  \n  \n7.   Pick up your SIMM (single in-line memory module) or DIMM (dual in-line memory module) by the ends without touching pins or chips. (Image 3)  \n  \n8.   If adding a SIMM, find the notched end and turn the SIMM so that it is parallel to the existing RAM card(s). Insert the SIMM into the socket at a 30-degree angle. If adding a DIMM, insert the DIMM straight in so that it is perpendicular to the motherboard. (Image 4)  \n  \n9.   Use slight pressure to keep a SIMM from backing out while rotating the module to an upright position perpendicular to the motherboard.  \n  \n10.   Make sure the small holes on each side of a SIMM fit into holders.  \n  \n11.   Feel or hear retaining clips lock a SIMM into the socket; close the side clips on a DIMM. (Image 5)  \n  \n12.   Gently try to pull the module out to ensure it is locked in position.  \n  \n13.   Replace all internal components.  \n  \n14.   Leave the cover off and reconnect the monitor, keyboard and mouse.  \n  \n15.   Turn on the computer.  \n  \n16.   Check the amount of RAM by right-clicking the My Computer icon in Windows and choosing Properties. On a Mac, use the About this Macintosh command in the Apple menu.  \n  \n17.   If you don't see the right amount of RAM, turn off the computer and try "reseating" the SIMM or DIMM (take it out and put is back in) and reboot. If that doesn't work, call a technician.  \n  \n18.   Shut down the computer and disconnect the peripherals again.  \n  \n19.   Replace the cover and reconnect all the peripherals.


Well, planets are the blown off objects of a star. During the birth of a star, massive eruptions are normal. Due to the impact of the eruption, the blown away parts travel over the space and will start rotating around the star from which these objects got blown away. The rotations take place due to the magnetic power of the star.\n\nInitially the planets are pretty hot and in few billion years, they cool and settle down like earth.


In the United States (and the law is similar in most countries), it isn't copyright that you need to worry about. Single words and titles aren't copywrited.  However, the word "entmoot" from the Lord of the Rings is probably subject to trademark protections, even though it may not be registered as a trademark.  The law can be complicated, and many tests are applied, but the basic question asked in trademark is whether the mark (in this "entmoot") is associated with the previous user and could cause confusion in a customer when the customer sees it used by the new user. That is, would someone buying a product with "entmoot" in the title assume that the product is associated with Tolkien/ Lord of the Rings because of the word.  I think they probably would, myself.\n\nThe US Trademark Office and Copyright Office have some useful information online if you want to pursue the question.  http://www.uspto.gov/main/faq/index.html

Your questions are like asking what is the prettiest color for an automobile!

Even for practice you might want to stay away from lead as it tends to create more cleaning problems over the long haul.  You can find excellent prices for ammo at Natchez Shooters Supplies(www.natchezss.com).  Don't forget to wear hearing and eye protection!

The Nimitz-class carrier program has been eliminated, to be replaced by the CVN-21 program, a highly advanced supercarrier. The first, designated CVN-78 and as yet unnamed. A ceremonial steel cut was made at the new plant to build all of the CVN-21 class carriers. Construction is expected to begin in 2007, though it depends on funding from Congress. It would then be commissioned in 2015. Possible names are USS-America, USS-Lexington, and USS-Enterprise. The last option seems likely since the current Enterprise is set to decommission the same time as the CVN-78's commissioning.

Any tips or suggestions for learning a foreign language?

The best tip is total immersion.  If you have the opportunity to study abroad and spend three to four months in another country, you'll pick up the language much faster and much more fluently than years of study in a classroom.\n\nShould you be unable to travel, speak with professors at universities and ask for the best language guides.  They'll point you in a direction in a way that most commercial sources won't be able to do.  They'll have the inside tips for the best resources, and they'll be able to show you which guides are good for self-study.


Is there really such a thing as an honest politician, one really for the people and not himself?

Douglas Adams wrote: "Anyone who is capable of getting themselves made President should on no account be allowed to do the job."\n\nI think that pertains to most high level political jobs.


Is not buying xmas presents for adults wrong?

People have many different expectations for Christmas and how it is observed.  It is common in many families to concentrate on the kids rather than the adults, but other folks are firmly in the "everybody gets something" camp.  Either way is fine so long as everyone is working from the same understanding.  If the arrangement is that you only buy for kids and someone goes and gets all the adults something as well, that can make the other adults who didn't buy gifts feel bad, which is not what the holidays are supposed to be about.  Conversely, you probably wouldn't feel too good if everyone else bought you something and you arrived with nothing for them.  The key is working out the expectations in advance, rather than operating in the dark.


Is it innapropriate to ask your boss for a raise?  I have been here almost 2 years..last raise was @ 6 months?

The best time to ask for a raise is when you have just completed a difficult task to your boss's satisfaction.  In other words, when you know he/she appreciates the great job that you've just finished, ask to speak privately to him/her and go for it.  Good luck. Timing is everything.

How many judicial systems operate in the U.S.?

I'm a little confused by your question.  In the United States, there are two parallel court systems, the federal and the state.  There are different kinds of courts within those systems, such as each independent state court for each of the fifty states, which is composed of different kinds of courts like probate court or criminal court.  In the federal system, courts like the bankruptcy court or the tax court are within the federal system.  In strict terms of the "judicial systems" in the United States, though, it is two, state and federal.

when drilling for oil from a well, what happens to void that is left in the ground?

Once the drill is removed and the pressure allowed to escape, the void is usually crushed due to the weight of the rock around it.  However, if the drill is removed and the void is still active, it is possible for water and/or oil to fill up the void fast enough to minimize the impact of the collapse; but in the end, even with an active void, the area collapses and fills with rock.  \n\nIn general this isn't a problem, as oil companies tend never to pump an entire void dry, allowing it fill naturally again for further drilling.  So, the geographical affects are negligable.

How can i keep from gaining weight while taking amitryptaline/Elavil?

This drug cause similar problems with me. It makes you crave carbs. The best bet is to make a diet plan for a whole day with a maximum number of calories you need to maintain your current weight and don't exceed that number. There are lots of calculators on the web that will tell you how many calories that is. Choose a lot of vegtables, whole grain, and fruit since they are low in calories and have lots of fiber which takes longer to digest which will slow down you hunger. It is possible to stuff you face with as much food as you can eat and do it in a healthy way. After a year of me doing this I lost 50lbs. and no longer crave the old junk I used to eat. Exercise like jogging or bike riding can burn big time calories, but I am too lazy to do that. You might not be though. Good Luck!


The Jersey Devil, the supposed mythical creature of the New Jersey Pinelands, has haunted New Jersey and the surrounding areas for the past 260 years. This entity has been seen by over 2,000 witnesses over this period. It has terrorized towns and caused factories and schools to close down, yet many people believe that the Jersey Devil is a legend, a mythical beast, that originated from the folklore of the New Jersey Pine Barrens. Others disagree with this point of view. The following text will show there is evidence to support the existence of an animal or supernatural bring known as the Jersey Devil. The evidence consists of the stories of the Jersey Devil's origin, the sightings of it, and finally, the theories on it. \n\nThere are many different versions of the birth of the Jersey Devil. One of the most popular legends says a Mrs. Shrouds of Leeds Point, NJ made a wish that if she ever had another child, she want it to be a devil. Her next child was born misshapen and deformed. She sheltered it in the house, so the curious couldn't see him. On stormy night, the child flapped it's arms, which turned into wings, and escaped out the chimney and was never seen by the family again. A Mrs. Bowen of Leeds point said, "The Jersey Devil was born in the Shrouds house at Leeds Point." 1 Another story that also placed the birth at Leeds Point said that a young girl fell in love with a British soldier during the Revolutionary War. The people of Leeds Point cursed her. When she gave birth, she had a devil. Some people believe the birth of the devil was punishment for the mistreatment of a minister by the Leeds folk.


I would contact a dermatologist for the 'best' way.\n\nOther steps\n\n1. Wash your face at least twice a day with a mild cleanser. Use a pH-balanced cleanser without perfumes or too many chemical additives.\n \n2. Touch your face as little as possible, and only when your hands are clean.\n \n3. Avoid squeezing pimples. Bacteria on your hands or on unsterile equipment can lead to more blemishes and possible scarring.\n \n4. Steam your face once or twice a week to help open the pores. Boil water, remove the pot from the stove, drape a towel over your head and hold your face over the pot. Then rinse your face with cold water. \n \n5. Use essential oils such as calendula, chamomile, juniper, lavendar and mint directly on your skin. Mix 10 drops of any of the oils with 2 tbsp. soy or almond oil, and smooth a few drops on dampened skin.\n \n6. Try using herbs. Saw palmetto can help balance boys' hormones, while chaste tree berry can do the same for girls. Echinacea, alfalfa, burdock root, cayenne, chaparral and yellow dock root are also helpful.\n \n7. Consider other topical mixtures. Beat an egg yolk, apply it with a cotton ball and leave it on for 15 minutes. Alternatively, mix oatmeal and honey together to form a paste and apply it to your face. Oatmeal soaks up excess oil and honey soothes the skin.\n \n8. Take acidophilus to fight bacteria.\n \n9. Eat a diet high in fiber, including whole grains and fresh vegetables and fruits, to keep your body healthy overall and provide nutrients to your skin. Stay away from junk food, caffeine and salty foods.\n \n10. Determine whether specific foods aggravate your skin and eliminate them from your diet.\n \n11. Consider adding zinc supplements to your diet.\n \n12. Limit your exposure to the sun and reduce the stress in your life.

How do I help an Alcoholic that doesn't think he has a problem and his family that doesnt want to addess it.

As a 3 year member of Alcoholics Anonymous I'm gonna try to answer this.  Unfortunately as someone else responded to your question I agree that most likely and sadly you can't do much to help him if he doesn't want help.  As we say in AA, AA is not for those who need it but for those who want it.  As for his family you might try honestly, humbly, and lovingly letting his family know how concerned you are and that you don't know what to do.  I don't know if you have any spiritual beliefs but you might try praying for the man, I will.  James S. -Alcoholic Anonymous

Is there any multicellular composed of only prokaryotic cells?

There are a number of examples in which prokaryotic organisms coalesce into multicellular structures. One of those examples are in a group of bacteria called myxobacteria. In this case, myxobacteria form what's called fruiting bodies as part of their life cycle (see the link below for a picture of a fruiting body).

Whats The Deepest Point In The Ocean, And Can We Travel Down There?

At 36,201 feet (11,034 meters) below sea level, Challenger Deep is the lowest part of the Pacific Ocean's Mariana Trench, located just east of the Philippines.\n\nThe water pressure is the equivalent of having about 50 jumbo jets piled on top of you. Yet even here life thrives, according to scientists who have pulled a plug of dirt from the seafloor.\n\nThe sample was taken from the Challenger Deep, which is nearly 7 miles (11 kilometers) deep. The soil was packed with a unique community of mostly soft-walled, singled-celled organisms that are thought to resemble some of the world's earliest life forms.\n\nThe sediment core was collected with KAIKO, JAMSTEC's remotely operated vehicle. Kitazato and colleagues report the discovery in tomorrow's issue of the journal Science.\n\nI doubt we will ever see the bottom!

If I like a guy and he flirt's with me constantly then why dont I have the courage to ask him out?

friendship is great but wouldn't it be better if you had that friendship and a mate all in one? you have the best of both worlds when you start as friends. just take the time to think about it when he is not around. then if nothing else send him an email with everything you want to say. if you dont send it thats fine but putting things down allows you to think it through first. but honestly he probably likes you too but he might think he has been sidelined as a friend and wants to be around you so he has settled for a friend role.


Which is the best quotation from Shakespearean Drama?

There was a survey done on this and the results were as follows:\n\n\nShakespeare quotes are full of passion and wisdom, sometimes with a shade of sarcasm. The passion in Shakespeare quotes never fails to move the reader. What's more, these quotes remain relevant today as they reflect the values and beliefs of our society. Here is a top 10 list of Shakespeare quotes that will leave you yearning for more. \n\n1) Hamlet, III:1\nTo be, or not to be: that is the question.\n\n2) All's Well That Ends Well, I:2\nLove all, trust a few, do wrong to none.\n\n3) From Romeo and Juliet, II:2\nGood night, good night! Parting is such sweet sorrow.\n\n4) Twelfth Night, II:5\nBe not afraid of greatness. Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon 'em.\n\n5) Merchant of Venice, III:1\nIf you prick us do we not bleed? If you tickle us do we not laugh? If you poison us do we not die? And if you wrong us, shall we not revenge? \n\n6) Hamlet, I:5\nThere are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy.\n\n7) MacBeth, I:3\nIf you can look into the seeds of time, and say which grain will grow and which will not, speak then to me.\n\n8) Twelfth Night, III:1\nLove sought is good, but given unsought is better.\n\n9) Antony & Cleopatra, III:4\nIf I lose mine honour, I lose myself.\n\n\n10) Midsummer Night's Dream, V:1\nIt's not enough to speak, but to speak true.\n\n\nHowever, my personal favourite remains this from "Romeo and Juliet"\n\nAct II \nScene II\n \nJuliet:                       ‘Tis but thy name that is my enemy:\n\n                                Though art thyself, though not a Montague.\n\n                                Nor arm nor face nor any other part\n\n                                Belonging to a man. O be some other name.\n\n                                What’s in a name? That which we call a rose\n\n                                      By any other word would smell as sweet;\n\n                                So Romeo would, were he not Romeo call’d,\n\n                                Retain that dear perfection which he owes\n\n                                Without that title. Romeo, doff thy name,\n\n                                And for thy name, which is no part of thee,\n\n                                Take all myself.


Do you think the us will attac iran and syria?

No. Polls show that most people think that the Iraq war was a mistake.  There is no support for it in congress because any congressman that supports yet another unprovoked war would not be elected again.\nThis administration has only 2 years left.  The next administration will be much less likely to do it (McCain no, Hillary no,...).\nI don't think Iran or Syria will do anything concrete to provoke it.  After all Iran has been a major beneficiary of the Afghanistan and Iraq wars.  It would be nice if the new president would shut up, but I think it's just a lot of hot air.


why will a shipwrecked crew die if they drink saltwater?

Basically because of a phenomenon called Osmosis, which is the exchange of water or other liquids through a membrane in order to get an equilibrium between dissolved substances and the pressure on the membrane.\n\nThe liquids in the human body have a salt content of roughly 0.9% (aka isotonic solution). Sea water has salt contents up to 3.5% (disregarding the Dead Sea and similar evaporation basins).\n\nLow salt content water (from the body cells) will go through the membranes into the salt water. Effectively, the body dries up even though a person has drunk salt water.\n\nNote, however, that salt water near isotonic values can be drunk in case of emergencies. E.g. before river mouths or in inland seas or bays, freshwater addition can dilute sea water to survivable salt contents.

Has anybody actually gotten to lev 2 or higher yet?

I got to level 2 in a few days, so anyone else can do it too.\n\nI think the best way to do it is to really try to provide quality answers, so they will get voted "best answer".  That's the fastest way, because you get an extra 10 points, on top of the 2 points you got for answering it.\n\nAlso, I'd skip the silly and frivolous questions - I think it's a sign that the asker may not come back to select a best answer. Like "Do you prefer dogs or cats?"  It's just silly, if someone wants to ask stuff like that, they can just join a chatroom somewhere.  And since in the beginning levels, you can only answer 10-20 questions, you want to use them wisely.\n\nBut if a question seems serious, like the person really wants to know, they're more likely to be grateful when you answer thoughtfully and with facts and sources, and more likely to reward you for it, and other people are more likely to give a "thumbs up" for your best answers.


Why do idiots with poor grammar skills feel the need to ask stupid questions on this and other boards?

My view is that the internet is opening more avenues of communication to teenagers and people with poor education, and both groups (with some exceptions) tend to spell poorly. \n\nIt's not that anyone's grammar is getting worse, but rather that we're being exposed more and more to the already existing bad grammar.


If you were drafted for the war in Iraq, would you go?

The U.S. does not have the draft, nor does it have any plans to implement one.  However, were that all to change, I would be proud to go.  I would much rather go fight (and possibly die) freedom in a place where people will actually appreciate it than live peacefully in a country where many people seem to have forgotten the cost of freedom.

how to file late payments on someone's credit report.?

A person is not able to place information on payment history on another person's credit report unless they are a business or corporation of some sort.  This is because to be able to report information on a credit report you must subscribe to the credit bureau to be able to do so, and the fee for subscription is costly.  If you are a landlord for a few houses then you are better off evicting the tenants and then placing their unpaid rent to a collection agency.  The collection agency would be able to place the information about the past due rent on the tenants credit report for you, plus attempt to get the money back to you for the unpaid rent.

what is standard acceptable variation in test results obtained for protein estimtion by kjeldahl method?

The Kjeldahl method for determining the Crude protein (CP) in a specimen is usually reported as percent CP in the sample.  According to most Kjeldahl procedures the following is typcal:\n“An acceptable average standard deviation among replicated analyses for crude protein ranges from about ±0.10 for samples with 10% CP to ±0.20 for samples with 20% CP, which results in warning limits (2s) ranging from ±0.20 to 0.40 and control limits (3s) ranging from ±0.30 to 0.60.”\nThe 0.10 is about 1% for the 10 percent specimen.  Modern methods are more accurate,

Why do you think life must have a purpose?

I don't think life must have a purpose.\n\nI think that thinking beings generally want there to be a purpose, in order to justify their existence and actions, especially when their existence is difficult or threatened. But I don't believe that life in general requires a purpose.\n\nThat's not to say that life is unnecessary or nonvaluable. Just that I see no requirement that life have a purpose. I do want my own life to have a purpose--of course I do, and I seek meaning in what I do and how I act. But I don't think that there's a causal relationship between the existence of Life and the need for a Purpose behind that life.

He may treat you like a Goddess and tell you that he can't live without you, that you are the love of his life. \n\nHe felt this way about his wife, once too.   He loved her so much he married her and had kids with her.  \n\nIf you do intice him to cheat, how can you ever have anything real in the future? Even if he does leave his wife and kids.  There can & will NEVER be trust between you because look how it started.  \nStay away.

What ia an Algorithm? From where this word originated? What criteria an algoritm must satisfy?

An explicit step-by-step procedure for producing a solution to a given problem. Specifically, a mathematical equation typically executed using a computer program (or set of programs) that is designed to systematically solve a certain kind of problem. For example, in the field of meteorology, WSR-88D radars (NEXRAD) employ algorithms to analyze radar data and automatically determine storm motion, probability of hail, accumulated rainfall, and several other parameters.\n\n\n*  Originates from "algorism" with its ancient meaning, i.e., the process of doing arithmetic using Arabic numerals

why was the reform act of 1832 so important?

Between 1770 and 1830, the Tories were the dominant force in the House of Commons. The Tories were strongly opposed to increasing the number of people who could vote. However, in November, 1830, Earl Grey, a Whig, became Prime Minister. Grey explained to William IV that he wanted to introduce proposals that would get rid of some of the rotten boroughs. Grey also planned to give Britain's fast growing industrial towns such as Manchester, Birmingham, Bradford and Leeds, representation in the House of Commons. \n\nIn April 1831 Grey asked William IV to dissolve Parliament so that the Whigs could secure a larger majority in the House of Commons. Grey explained this would help his government to carry their proposals for parliamentary reform. William agreed to Grey's request and after making his speech in the House of Lords, walked back through cheering crowds to Buckingham Palace. \n\nAfter Lord Grey's election victory, he tried again to introduce parliamentary reform. On 22nd September 1831, the House of Commons passed the Reform Bill. However, the Tories still dominated the House of Lords, and after a long debate the bill was defeated. When people heard the news, Reform Riots took place in several British towns; the most serious of these being in Bristol in October 1831.\n\nOn 7th May 1832, Grey and Henry Brougham met the king and asked him to create a large number of Wigg peers in order to get the Reform Bill passed in the House of Lords. William was now having doubts about the wisdom of parliamentary reform and refused. \n\nLord Grey's government resigned and William IV now asked the leader of the Tories, the Duke of Wellington, to form a new government. Wellington tried to do this but some Tories, including Sir Robert Peel, were unwilling to join a cabinet that was in opposition to the views of the vast majority of the people in Britain. Peel argued that if the king and Wellington went ahead with their plan there was a strong danger of a civil war in Britain. \n\nWhen the Duke of Wellington failed to recruit other significant figures into his cabinet, William was forced to ask Grey to return to office. In his attempts to frustrate the will of the electorate, William IV lost the popularity he had enjoyed during the first part of his reign. Once again Lord Grey asked the king to create a large number of new Whig peers. William agreed that he would do this and when the Lords heard the news, they agreed to pass the Reform Act. \n\nMany people were disappointed with the 1832 Reform Bill. Voting in the boroughs was restricted to men who occupied homes with an annual value of £10. There were also property qualifications for people living in rural areas. As a result, only one in seven adult males had the vote. Nor were the constituencies of equal size. Whereas 35 constituencies had less than 300 electors, Liverpool had a constituency of over 11,000.

Because most humans agree that it is, at least for counting physical items.  When is it not?\n1 person + 1 person = 1 relationship\n1 piece of matter + 1 motivational force = 1 moving object.\n1 space + 1 time = 1 space-time continuum\n1 fantasy + 1 fantasy = 1 shared fantasy\n1 person + 1 thought = 1 fanatic\nYou get the idea.


He probably will, but it depends on the outcome of the Rose Bowl. If Texas wins, he'll go. If not,it's up in the air. He should stay for his senior year. Great athlete, but needs to develop a more accurate arm. Plus the Big 12 really didn't have a top defense this year.
