Can someone help with an ilo LCD monitor?

One possible problem could be the screen backlight is faulty. Is the screen totally black or can you faintly see images. If it goes totally black, it could have something to do with the monitor power supply. Another cause could be your computer's video card. iLo is a Wal-Mart branded product. I was unable to find any contact information, but your best bet would be to contact the manufacturer and see what they say. You might be outside the warranty period, so it may be cheaper to just buy a new monitor. To make sure it's just the monitor, hook it up to another computer and see if the problem occurs.


Why is their a lack of summer school programs in San Francisco Unified School district?

Contact the school district and ask them. Chances are, it's a result of the budget cuts. This happened in Santa Barbara County, too. They cut the number of clases available, cut all enrichment classes and only allowed kids who were behind to attend summer school. I'm sure it's happened across the country. Schools are really hurting right now.\n\nOther signs of budget cuts: \nTaking out every other light in the classroom.\nNot enough text books for every kid.\nExtra-curricular activities cut.\nFewer non-required classes.\nCuts or elimination of music, drama, art, journalism programs. \nReduction or elimination of field trips.\nCuts in teacher supply budget.\nLarger class size.\n\nThe only thing that hasn't been cut are the salaries of the administrators. Check it out. Your superintendent of the school system probably has a larger salary than the governor's (not counting Arnold's other income, of course, but just his governor's salary.)\n\nThank you George Dubya.


Do you belive how many people use computer today ? why some of them can't read or do something else ? :D:(

well, you did use the computer to ask your question. opportunity cost. you gave up a part of your time, which could've been spent on reading or something else, to ask your question.\n\nsame with everyone else. they prefer to spend their time in front of the computer and give up their opportunity to read a good book.


can i still get my period and be pregnant and it not show up on a test?

The answer to your question is yes, but I would like to clarify something.  When you are pregnant, there are high levels of something called HCG in your urine.  You can still be pregnant and not have enough HCG in your urine to turn a  urine pregnancy test positive in early pregnancy.  So if you are pregnant and bleeding it is medically not considered a "period".  It is considered spotting.  That's why it is important to go to a doctor if you think you could be pregnant, even if you are having what you think is a "period".  Steps can be taken to possibly prevent a miscarriage.

How do you get a boss from being cruel and self center toward his employees, he's not one from charm school ?

You don't... Sorry, won't sugar coat it for ya.\nYou can't change him. So change your outlook (seriously)\nPay more attention to what YOU are getting from the job ( like a paycheck, insurance, trust that you can do the job) and less on the lopsided (and yes unfair) workload.\n\nYou'll be happier if you just learn to let it roll off your back, show up, do you thing, collect your pay and go home to your wife and children. Just don't go home with a flat forehead, from banging it against a brick wall.\n\nGood luck and as I always say... "Once you realize you can't control the wind, try adjusting your sail."

Does anyone have penis bent upward during erection?

I suppose that, apart the ejaculation time, your penis is normally straight. Therefore I think you referred to the stiffness and to the muscular contractions occurring when semen runs to come out. Penis doesn't bend properly but move itself going more close to the belly simply; for few seconds and while spurting only. That's just normal.

i have had a bad lower back on and off for forty years?

My back was hurting so bad it was hard for me to stand for long periods or sit,it was like a burning pain right in my lower back,I went to the chiropractor and he said the reason I was having so much pain is because my pelvic had shifted (I never heard of that before),but now since I've been going it has eased up some. I have had back problems for years also,but more so since I've had my kids. Go to the chiropractor and find out for sure though!!!


what's the difference between cycloalkanes and alkenes?

They are isomeres. Both are CnH2n.\n\nIn a cycloalkane molecule the C atoms are in a circle.\nAll atoms have been connected by a single bond.\n\nAn alkene molecule has (at least)  two ends. One connection between two C atoms is a double bond. All the other bonds are single.\n\nAlkenes accept very easy chlorine at the double bond.\nCycloalkanes don't.

I want to know if there are Seventh-day Adventists over there?

My whole family are seventh Day Adventists. I grew up SDA and personally found that it changed my life.\n\nGrowing up I had no idea of anything I just believed what I was told. Later on when I was a teenager I started asking questions about Life, God, the Bible, etc. I finally came to my own conclusions about it all and left the SDA's and all other religions. \n\nI personally have found the SDA to be a bit on the strange side. I mean the "branch davidians" branched from SDA and we'll all saw what happened at Waco. Not that all SDA people are wierd, because my family is pretty normal, but I find the teachings to be odd and I wonder why people just follow blindly.\n\nAnyway, whatever you're looking for I'm sure you'll find it and if its right for you, then good. Best of Luck.


Are the Eskimos and Northwest Indians related?

"Eskimo" is an American Indian word which translates to "eater of raw meat". Ironically, scientists put the Indians in a separate anthropological category while the Eskimos are considered more closely related to the natives of northern Asia. The people we call Eskimos originally came from Asia across a land bridge (which no long exists) into northern North America (now call Alaska). They gradually spread across the Artic regions. There are approximately 1,500 Eskimos living in the Soviet Union and about 50,000 in Greenland.


which is a better song---ONE-or-MASTER OF PUPPETS?

I like "Master of Puppets" much more - whether it's metal, hard rock or whatever - it's just a better song. "One" is probably the best song on "Justice" but that's not saying much in my opinion - it's my least favorite Metallica album after "St. Anger."\n\nDave Mustaine was definitely in an early version of Metallica, but I think he and Kirk played together for a period. Check out the fantastic "Some Kind of Monster" documentary for more insight on that whole episode.

How long has it been...do you NEED a girlfriend right now? I think you should focus on yourself and have fun. Are you still young? Do you like to party?

In school I got average grades because I learned the standardised way rather than my way. MAKE LEARNING FUN.\n\nBasically divide a subject up into parts you can manage (put the parts together later when you understand them). Remember the order of things by creating stories or songs (see my answer on 'learning the first 20 elements of the periodic table by clicking on Carl), use colours to highlight important points, colour code the parts you divided earlier. Stick notes on your wall so you can see them. Paint pictures in your mind of the equation, the battle, the person you are learning about....make the subject real, touchable.\n\nSounds crazy on your first read doesn't it? :-) But these are the tricks that turned me from an average school student into someone with two degrees in University.\n\nHope this helps

3r - 4s = 0\n2r + 5s = 23\n\nMultiply the first equation by 5 and the second equation by 4:\n\n5 * (3r - 4s = 0)  --> 15r - 20s = 0\n4 * (2r + 5s = 23) -->  8r + 20s = 92\n\n15r + 8r = 23r\n-20s + 20s = 0\n0 + 92 = 92\n\n23r = 92\n\nDivide each side by 23:\n\n23r / 23 = 92 / 23\n\n23r / 23 = r\n92 / 23 = 4\n\nTherefore, r = 4.\n\nSo solve for s, let's use the first equation 3r - 4s = 0.\n\n3(4) - 4s = 0\n\nAdd 4s to both sides of the equation:\n\n3(4) - 4s + 4s = 0 + 4s\n\n3 * 4 = 12\n-4s + 4s = 0\n\n12 = 4s\n\nDivide both sides by 4:\n\n12 / 4 = 4s / 4\n\n12 / 4 = 3\n4s / 4 = s\n\nTherefore, s = 3.


yes they get priviledges.\n\nBlacks are incarcerated at a rate that is more than 6 times that of whites for the same crime. In total, between 1980 and 1999, the incarceration rate for Blacks more than tripled from 1156 per 100,000, to 3,620 per 100,000. This is more than 4 times the rate of incarceration of Blacks in South Africa during the apartheid era.The rate of imprisonment for Black women is more than 8 times that of white women for the same crime.The Black male homicide rate is 7 times the white male rate. Black women are 18 times more likely to be raped than white women. The death penalty has been imposed in 682 capital cases since 1995. The U.S. attorney recommended the death penalty in 183 of them-of those cases 26% involved white defendants, 74% "minority." Blacks make up 40% of the death row population. Black men are get jail time 3 times greater than that of white for the same crime.Blacks account for 30% of people with AIDS in America. 54% of children under age 13 with AIDS are Black. HIV/AIDS is the number 1 cause of death for Blacks aged 25 to 44.\nIn recent years, the estimated incidence of HIV/AIDS has declined for every race except Blacks. In 1997, four times as many Latinos and eight times as many Blacks as whites contracted AIDS. Whites with HIV are far more likely to receive advanced drug therapy-a trend that slowed the white death rate from AIDS by 28% from 1995 to 1996, but by only 10% for Blacks. Blacks account for 57% of new infections of HIV and by the year 2005, African Americans will account for 60% of AIDS cases.Whites are two-thirds more likely to receive kidney transplants than others.The Justice Department estimates that one out of every 21 Black men can expect to be murdered, a death rate double that of U. S. soldiers in World War II. A young Black male in America is more likely to die from gun fire than was any soldier in Vietnam.White males with a high-school diploma are just as likely to have a job, and tend to earn just as much as Black males with college degrees. Light-skinned Blacks have a 50% better chance of getting a job than dark-skinned Blacks. Blacks are rejected twice as often for small business loans than whites of comparable credit.


Does the U.S.A. have nuclear weapons (WMD)?

Yes. They are currently using them in Iraq in the form of Depleted Uranium. \n\nAmerican soldiers have dropped Depleted Uranium (DU) on enemy combatants since 1991. It is lethal; it is horrid, and although it doesn’t have the showmanship of a mushroom cloud, it is still a nuclear bomb. \n\nThe use of DU is illegal under all international agreements, treaties, and covenants and it is illegal even under U.S. military law regarding WMDs. It breaches the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the UN Charter, the Genocide Convention, the Convention against Torture, the four Geneva Conventions of 1949, the Conventional Weapons Convention of 1980, and the Hague Conventions of 1899 and 1907.But in defiance of those international treaties, and its own laws, the United States continues to use this destructive material with full knowledge that its use could result in the slow annihilation of all species, including our own. \n\nDepleted uranium is a waste by-product of nuclear weapons and domestic nuclear power. It is used in weapons because it is cheap, ignites easily and burns fiercely on hitting a solid target. When it impacts, it releases an aerosol of fine uranium oxide that is breathable and spreads great distances by wind until weighted down by rain, where it falls to the ground and is absorbed into soil or water sources. \n\nScientists are quite certain on two points: DU is deadly; and the effects of this material will continue to contaminate the Earth long after humans are extinct. DU is the Trojan Horse of nuclear war, the ultimate gift that keeps on giving. The half-life of the material is 4.5 billion years. \n\nThis is very dangerous material: it meets the U.S. definition of a ''weapon of mass destruction'' and while the United States is prepared to invade sovereign countries on the basis they ''might'' have WMDs themselves and they ''might'' be willing to use them, the Americans actually have them and actually use them. And they use them in complete disregard for the people and nations on whom they are dropped, even in disregard for the health of their own and allied troops. In the months and years following Desert Storm, thousands of babies have been born to vets with horrible deformities (missing limbs, one eye, missing ears, incomplete or missing organs - reminiscent of the Thalidomide babies of the 1950s - but in far greater numbers. In 1995, Iraqi health officials reported alarmingly high increases in rare and unknown diseases, primarily in children, and presented a study of this state of affairs to the United Nations. The increases occurred in leukemia, carcinoma, cancers of the lung and digestive system, late-term miscarriages, congenital diseases, and deformities in fetuses, such as anencephaly (absence of a brain), and fused fingers and toes, not unlike those found in the babies of Gulf War veterans. \n\nIn response to the mounting evidence of the hazards, the American response has been to use the same material in the Balkans, in Afghanistan, and now in Iraq again.

Comscore Media Metrix is the undisputed leader in 3rd-party tracking of web traffic.  Most sites with 10,000+ visitors are tracked by this service, which uses a panel of several thousand web users to track their surfing habits.  \n\nThe entry for Yahoo! for the month of February shows that over 120 million people use Yahoo! properties at least once a month.  By "using" the property, I mean to say that they "visited" at least one or more yahoo URLs during February.  \n\nYahoo, by the way, is far and away the most-trafficked media property on the internet, and boasts 30.3 BILLION pages viewed.  The only other property online that even comes close to that kind of pageview volume is MySpace.com, who serves 23 billion pageviews per month.  \n\nThe great thing about MediaMetrix is that it allows us to drill down into the site to see traffic on a line-by-line basis.  Upon drilling into the report, you'd find interesting facts like the following:  \n\nYahoo Mail 65 million users\nYahoo Search 65 million users\nMyYahoo 27 million users\nYahoo News 26 million users \nYahoo Local 26 million users \n....and....2.4 million people use Yahoo! Answers, including you and me. \n\nSo, it's safe to say that at least 3 out of every 4 people with a computer that can connect to the internet visit some Yahoo! page somewhere within the site at least once per month.

Anyone have at home treatments for injured sciatic nerve?

If the pain is extending all the way down to your toes, then you will need to see a real doctor. A chiropractor will not do anything for you. Unfortunately, this isn't cheap. You will likely need a CT scan at minimum or an MRI at worst. The treatments can include cortisone injection to reduce the swelling of the disc to medication (NSAID). If it's bad enough it may require surgery.

I loved this show.  I got hooked when they were showing a marathon of the first 5 episodes.  I watched it faithfully from there out.

I didn't think she would win it so I was so happy when she did.  She did such a great job designing clothes that women would wear and she put so much of her heart and soul into everything that she made.

What is the difference between mutex and semaphore?

Typically a mutex allows you to exclude others while you are doing something. So when you acquire a mutex, no one else can acquire it until you release your lock on it. A semaphore, on the other hand, has a count. For example, I might not want to start more than 3 print jobs. I could start a semaphore with a count of 3. The first 3 threads that try to "get" the semaphore will succeed. The 4th will have to wait (count=0) until one of the first 3 "gives back" the semaphore count that it took.\n\nObviously a semaphore of count 1 is sort of like a mutex.


can i be a juror if i previously studied law at university?

Sure can.\n\nThe only thing that would keep your from being a juror is a prejudice in the case. Such as knowing the parties or having a strong opinion on the case.\n\nA good understanding of the law is a good benefit for the jury. you would add more meaning to a verdict.

After you have had the disease for awhile, you learn the triggers and what to avoid.\n\nTo me oxygen should be a very last resort. I am not a doctor but I would try everything else first. I want to avoid a tank or a tube up my nose for as long as I can.\n\nIt is just too difficult to give this kind of advice when you don't know everything. \n\nI am currently on Uniphyl(pill to open your lungs)and the inhalers,Advair, Spiriva and I have a nebulizer. The nebulizer works great for me. I am also on Zoloft and Xanax.\nEveryone questions my use of Xanax. I was experiencing severe spells during the early a.m. hours(between 4 & 6).I went to the hospital several times and once I was so bad I had to call an ambulance. I was turning blue. The Xanax and concentrated deep breathing stopped the spells completly.\n\nI am now on medical disability, My stress was so bad. I have been off work since Feb. 28,2006. I have not felt this good in years. I am 60 years old. I have to start exercising now. My COPD still stops me from a lot of things, but my breathing is 100% better. I found out how big a role stress can play with this disease.\n\nGOOD LUCK to your dad. I hope he finds what I have. We don't have to die........


how do i get out of deployment if im already in iraq?

My husband has been deployed for most of our 5 year marriage as well but I am a dedicated wife who knows this is his job and I support him and his job 100%, no questions. In order to be a military wife, you have to have a strong foundation and you have to know that the Army is first..I mean, my husband puts me first but when he is deployed, he has to put his job first in order to stay focused, his main job in Iraq is to stay focused and I do everything here that I can to help him maintain that. We work as a team and have a very healthy, happy and strong marriage despite all of the deployments. You just need to reassure to your wife that this is what you have to do and that you both need to pull it together and it will make these deployments easier to "deal" with. As for the mental well being, you can both seek help with that. Contact your chaplain and he will guide you to what you need to do and where you can go for this help. Your wife should participate in the FRG's or start a support group. The main thing is to support each other and know that together, you can conquer anything. Stay strong and keep the chin up...stay safe and you'll be home sooner than you know it. If you're gone for a year, you should be getting a two week R&R time....take that time to rejuvinate. Good luck and thanks for all you do!!!!

Information from Single Parents in the Air Force?

Single parents may not enlist in  ANY Active duty branch of the military.  They may NOT give up custody for the sole purpose of enlisting( the Marines make you wait 12 months after giving up custody before youy can even try to enlist).  you may NOT regain custody at all during your first term of enlistment( anywhere from 2-6 years.) \n\nThe Air Force RESERVE will take single parents.. HOWEVER, a rock solid family care plan must be in place at all times. Additionally.. the AF is overmanned, and can afford to be picky about who they will take.  Same with the Navy.

Unfortunately, many exotic species have been introduced throughout the world and caused damage to native flora and fauna, so you'll find lots of information.\nGenerally speaking, they threaten native ecosystems by direct competition with some species, and more importantly, by altering the structure and functions of these environments.\n\nHere's a good informative online textbook\nhttp://darwin.bio.uci.edu/~sustain/bio65/lec14/b65lec14.htm\n\nAnd some more:\nhttp://www.werc.usgs.gov/hq/weed.htm\nhttp://www.actionbioscience.org/biodiversity/simberloff.html\n\nThis is the official website of the World Conservation Union (UICN):\nhttp://www.iucn.org\nSearch for invasive species in that site.\n \nGood luck :-)

who was an abolitionist opposed to the emancipation proclamation?

Are you sure you're understanding what an 'abolitionist' and the 'emancipation proclamation' is/are?\n\nThere aren't any that I know of.  An 'abolitionist' was a person or group that was opposed to slavery and the Emancipation Proclamation freed slaves. I'm sure the two are alway mutually exclusive and one doesn't always indicate the other as an abolitionist could have had a problem with details of the Emancipation Proclamation.  But as to a specific individual, I don't recall ever hearing of one

(m)\n\nThe roughness length is used in numerical models to express the roughness of the surface. It affects the intensity of mechanical turbulence and the fluxes of varies quantitities above the surface. \n\nThe 'roughness length' zo, depends on the frontal area of the average element (facing the wind) divided by the ground width it occupies. Vertical sub-gridscale heat exchange (by turbulent eddies) can be expressed as the vertical gradient of potential temperature times the roughness length. A lower roughness length implies less exchange between the surface and the atmosphere, but also stronger wind near the ground


Set procedure for Collection Agencies to accept cases?

Okay there is really nothing you can do except dispute it until to comes into a collection agency. Not accepting the invoice will not help. Get it, and keep it. Document your dispute send him  by sending letters (certified). Also did you sign anything accepting the servies? if so get copies of everything. Keep your cool, he cannot threaten you with action he doesn't intend to take! After he sends you to a collection agency the FDCPA (Fair Debt Collection Practices Act) kicks in and there is certain things that must happen. \nthe collection agency must verify that teh debt is good and current.\nAlso You will have a 30 day disputing period from the time the coll agency contacts you to dispute the bill, it must be marked disputed on your credit report by the coll. agency. If he cannot prove it's legitimacy to the coll. agency too. It must be canceled off your credit report and the coll. cannot persue it. a dn tehn hes pretty SOL- you can also take him to court after all this if it is false for deformation of charicter.\n\n-Hope that helps a bit


is there an alternate medication to blood thinners?

No, just aspirin.  BUT - if  he has a bleeding ulcer he can take shots.  There's Lovenox and Heparin.  I've taken both.  Lovenox is stronger, but the needle is bigger and the short hurts more.  Heparin you need to take 2x a day and the needle is just like an allergy or insulin needle.  Shots suck, but they are more effective than coumadin.

What you should do is be there for your child and to stop worrying about the father obviously he wasn't man enough to have the responsibilty so don't press him cut him out of you and your childs life for good or else it will cause problems down the road

I'm currently a staff auditor for a public accounting firm.  I chose audit because I believe that you learn more from audit than tax.  With tax you are in the same office each and every day and you do relatively the same thing day after day.\n\nI enjoy auditing because I have variety in my career.  I am not in the office all that often, maybe 1 week per month.  Sometimes more, sometimes less - depends on the client and the firm you work for.  I enjoy traveling to different areas and I get that opportunity.  I also like audit over tax because if you want to leave public accounting after a few years (with is pretty common in the profession) you have more career options than that from being a tax accountant.


what is the answer to (3^2) -1 ( 4m^2 ) 3?

No, he should be tried for treason, war crimes and crimes against humanity as should the congressmen who voted for the authorization to use force and hence launch the war in Iraq. Both the President, his cabinet and the Congress are in violation of 10CFR20, the code of federal regulations that explicitly dictactes when and how force can be used.


Is there some way I can make my ISP address unavailable for others to see when I send them email?

This is easy, if you have a router. That is what a router does. Nobody can see inside your computer if you are using a router. Besides you can go in and block his IP address from getting into you system anyway if you want to. Internet options and then advanced options, and add his addy there in security. Your router has more than one ports going out with different addys, and coming into it is your service providers. You see one in, and 50 out, it's beautiful.


who is terrorist? Palestinians or    Israelis?

Israel practices state terrorism - If they really wanted peace all they need to do is LEAVE the occupied territories.\nThere are plenty UN resolutions stating they should leave, as territory gained by war needs to be given back.\nThey then wonder why after 39 years of occupation the Palestinians react violently.\nWhen Iraq invaded Kuwait in 1990 it did nothing different than what Israel did in 1967.\nBut of course, they have a freedom of action that Saddam did not possess.


Balancing chemical equations is easy, but it's a bit of a trial and error process. Basically, you've got the the arrow in the middle, so the number of each element on one side of the arrow has to equal the number of that particluar element on the other side of the arrow. So start off by balancing any unique elements that only appear once on a particular side. Then balance your nitrogens, oxygens and carbons in that order. The last thing that should be balanced is your hydrogens. I can go into further detail if you need me to, I just don't know how much you know. \n\nFor your other question and yield is how much of something you get from a reaction. For instance, if I mix 100 moles of one substance and 100 moles of another substance, I can calculate a theoretical and experimental yield. For instance, I can say that I expect all 200 moles to react and form a single product. Since i expect it all to react, my THEORETICAL yield is 200 moles or 100%. Say I actually run the experiment and I discover that only 100 moles of my intended product formed, then my EXPERIMENTAL yield is 100 moles or 50%.

Why does illness/pain seem to gain strength with the coming of night?

Excuse me but skip celebs answer. The reason is simply that you will feel worse at night because your mind is not as active and once you relax and shut down your thoughts you start noticing the pain again. I have lived with MS chronic pain for 14 years plus now, and nightime is always the worst time for me. Thank goodness for a computer because many nights it has saved my sanity.

wat foods do u eat 2 loose weight and wat exercise do u do i h8 running + have no time 4 the gym!?

Watch your calorie intake. Cut out sodas and don't drink lemonade or fruit punch, either. If it's hard for you to go without soda, have just one of those little cans, they're 8 ounces and 100 calories, that's what I drink when I really want a soda, but never more then one a day. Drink lots of water instead. I keep my calorie intake at 1500 a day, and I've lost 24 pounds so far. Snack on small servings of fruit and plenty of vegetables and lean meat. Watch your portion sizes, too. I weigh everything that I eat, it's not that hard. On my breaks at work I go for walks, or I'll run up and down the stairs for 10-20 minutes. There is plenty of exercises to do that don't involve the gym, I don't go to the gym. Try brisk walking, roller blading, biking, swimming (if you have access to a pool), exercise videos (the Biggest Loser one is my favorite, I got it off Ebay for $15, it's actually fun and a great workout, it helped me get out of a "plateau"). Exercise can be fun and it's a great stress reliever.

How should i write an article on a guest speaker? What are some of the guidelines to follow?

A good paper is clear and concise.   Take time to gather your thoughts about the subject, and for your particular topic, I'd suggest the following:\n\n1)Recall some of the things that the speaker said, and what s/he talked about while s/he was in your class.\n\n2)Make sure your facts are accurate.  Nobody likes for the paper to make a mistake when it's writing about them!\n\n3)Make sure your paper follows an orderly, logical sequence and makes sense to people who weren't there for the speaker's presentation.\n\n4)Give your and your classmate's thoughts on the presentation and tell about how it has helped you in your class.


If the Braves get solid starting pitching all year, they will advance to the World Series.?

They've had solid starting pitching for most of the last decade, but that doesn't mean much in the playoffs. They need guys who can put it together for a few games in a row during a short series. You can have the best pitching in the world during the regular season, and that by itself doesn't guarantee a championship. I think they can win their division again, but the playoffs are a total crapshoot.

Finals are coming up for the girl I'm dating and she's suddenly being very distant. What should I be thinking?

Since I've been the one who has had to study (like your girl), I'm probably a good person to answer this one ... SHE IS VERY VERY VERY BUSY WITH SCHOOL RIGHT NOW!!!!!  If it is only two weeks, just wait it out!  and dont bother her or distract her from studying!  The best thing to do would be to text message her saying that you understand that college is very important to her and that you will give her time to study and always end your message with "i love you."  Go to her school website calendar and KNOW when her last final is (if she hasnt already told you), and AS SOON AS HER FINALS ARE OVER, TAKE HER OUT TO A FANCY LUNCH/DINNER MEAL or somewhere where she can relax with you or have fun.  As soon as her finals are over, immediately, you want to SPOIL HER, but just for the first few days, then everything's back to normal.  = )\n\n=====\nand text her at least 3 times per week saying "i hope studying is going well.  i love you."  After finals, flowers are a good idea, also.  = )\n\n=====\nsomething that someone mentioned below, and SINCE I'M IN COLLEGE, I SEE THIS ALL THE TIME; IT'S A HUGE ONE!!!  Offer to get fast food and take it to her!!!  but dont interfere with her studying; just drop it off and she'll likely give you a quick hug and maybe talk for 2-3 minutes.  THEN LEAVE!


What is the difference between Copaxone and Avonex?

Avonex is an interferon.  Copaxone is glatiramer acetate.  Copaxone acts as a decoy for T cells to attack, instead of myelin.  I don't know that much about how Avonex works.  All I know is that it has far too many harmful side effects for me.  There are hardly any with Copaxone.

What does the saying: "Raining cats and dogs" mean? Why wasn't it raining pigs and cows? What's the story?

The phrase "raining cats and dogs" originated in 17th Century England. During heavy downpours of rain, many of these poor animals unfortunately drowned and their bodies would be seen floating in the rain torrents that raced through the streets. The situation gave the appearance that it had literally rained "cats and dogs" and led to the current expression.

in biblical language, what does the word tripartite mean?

Jesus' keynote teaching is known as the Sermon on the Mount. Inherent to the Sermon on the Mount is an undeniable assertion, in Jesus' own words as related in more than one of the Gospels in each case, of the relativity of our personal capacities for spiritual expression and progress.\n\n\nThe Sermon on the Mount can be regarded as tripartite\n\nAn invocation towards leading a spiritually centred life\n\nAn encouragement of mild forbearance\n\nA litany against materialistic worldliness\n\nAn invocation towards leading\na spiritually centred life\n  And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was set, his disciples came unto him:\n  And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying,\n  Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.\n  Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.\n  Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.\n  Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.\n  Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.\n  Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.\n  Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.\n  Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.\n  Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.\n  Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.\n  Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.\n  Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hid.\n  Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.\n  Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.\n  Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.\n  For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.\n  "Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven. \nJesus Matthew 5: 1- 19\n  \nAn encouragement of mild forbearance\n  Ye have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth:\n  But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.\n  And if any man will sue thee at the law, and take away thy coat, let him have thy cloke also.\n  And whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile, go with him twain.\n  Give to him that asketh thee, and from him that would borrow of thee turn not away.\n  Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy.\n  But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them that despitefully use you and persecute you;\n  That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust\n  For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans do the same?\n  And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so?\n  Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect. \nJesus Matthew 5: 38- 48\n  \nA litany against materialistic worldliness\n  No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold

What are Islamic teachings on homosexuality ?


Why does my urine have such a stong odor?

Have you had a change in medications?  Started taking a multi-vitamin?  I know excess vitamins (like B-12) can cause an odor.  Plus certain foods (asparagus) can cause a strong odor...but you probably aren't eating that on a daily basis.  Check to see if you have a urinary tract infection that needs to be treated w/ antibiotics.  You can also start drinking cranberry juice which maintains the health of your urinary tract.  Cranberry can also be bought in pill formation if you don't like the bitter taste of the juice.  But either way, you might want to check w/ the Doc.  Good luck!


what speed does n average person cycle at?

This is difficult to say for sure.  However, I am a cyclist and use my speedometer regularly.  Typically my speed will be between 12 and 14 mph.  But I probably ride a little faster than most casual cyclists.  On the other hand, racing cyclists fly past me and typically ride at speeds around 20 mph or more.

politics in the philippines would never be here or there. i mean, look, different personalities, same old brouhaha... we kept changing the characters but the system remains the same. bureaucracy rules the majority and money is the key to power. however, politics is milder in the philippines than in any other country. but the "don't-care" attitude of it's people lives on. tourists come and go but they almost have one thing to say, the tariff to invest is too much, what with all the bureaucrats dogging you behind, asking stiffer prices than it should be. politicians loves to show their wares (especially during the election). but once in, they tend to move away from the people, unless a lucrative, profitable opportunity steps in wherein they could say, they've given their pork barrel for a cost (but in truth, only one-fouurth of the estimated cost was payed).... so what can i say, THAT PHILIPPINE POLITICS ARE GOING TO THE DOGS WITH THE BEST SNIFFING ONE TAKING THE BACON FOR HIMSELF....

Could I get the opinion of some fellow music snobs here?

The thing is.. he's just got such a whiny bastard voice - and ug, pretension. I like my pretension and whine perfectly mixed. He's just a bit too much of both for me.\n\nI mean, I guess he's heart-felt enough and the hipsters sure are feeling it.


This was the best question I have seen on this site.  (That isn't saying much, so let me say it this way:  This is an excellent question!)\n\nThe answer is 100 steps. (Not considering the hidden steps since it's constantly revolving).\n\nFirst we have to consider the ACTUAL speed of each man since the escalator is moving, too.\n\n(Fast Speed) + (Escalator Speed) = (Fast Adj. Speed)\n(Slow Speed) + (Escalator Speed) = (Slow Adj. Speed)\n\nAnalyzing that if the fast man had been able to climb the entire time that the slow man did, he would have gone 150 steps, we can see that he finished in half the time it took the slow man (because 75/150 = 1/2).  Therefore we also have:\n\n2 (Fast Time) = (Slow Time)\n\nWe also use the simple equation defining speed (s=d/t) to determine that:\n\n(Fast Adjusted Speed) = (Distance) / (Fast Time)\n(Slow Adjusted Speed) = (Distance) / (Slow Time)\n\nwhere (Distance) is equal to the actual distance traveled (eg. the distance from the top of the escalator to the bottom of the escalator).\n\nInserting the few givens and abbreviating the variables, we have, respectively:\n\nEq 1) 3 + ES = FAS\nEq 2) 1 + ES = SAS\nEq 3) 2 FT = ST\nEq 4) FAS = D/FT\nEq 5) SAS = D/ST\n\nThis looks like 6 variables with only 5 equations, but it is still actually solvable.\nUsing Eq.3 to simplify Eq.4 and Eq.5:\n\nEq 4) FAS = D/FT\nEq 5) SAS = D/2FT\n\nand we can reduce our number of variables by simply saying that X = D/FT, hence,\n\nEq 4) FAS = X\nEq 5) SAS = X/2\n\nSo now we use these to analyze Eq.1 and Eq.2:\n\nEq 1) 3 + E = X\nEq 2) 1 + E = X/2\n\nTwo variables, two equations.  E turns out to be 1.  This means that the escalator moves at the same speed as the slow man (remember that we assigned his abitrary, but proportional speed to be 1 in the equations).  If he and the escalator are both the same speed, and he contributes 50 steps to the journey, then the escalator must also have contributed 50 steps, totalling 100 steps.\n\nOr guess and check works pretty well, too.

how do I find out that my student loans per paid off from IRS taking my taxes because I was in default?

You can go to www.nslds.ed.gov to see the status of any federal loans that you have (if you no longer have a PIN, you must apply for one in order to view this data -- but it's worth it to have the access).  This system will let you know if you are still in default, if payments are being made (whether from wage garnishment, forfeiture of your tax refund, etc), and so on.  If your loan is still held by the original lender, you might also be able to view your loan's repayment status on the Web site of the loan holder (i.e. the lender/servicer, i.e. Sallie Mae, Citibank, etc... whoever used to send you bills).


I need to know what kind of job can i get in the world with an AA degree in Criminal Justice?

You are in a great field, as long as you are willing to relocate you could have a great career, for instance, working within criminal justice agencies, or with in the court systems local, state, or fed.  or nowadays within the department of home land securities including airport security, port security, the sky marshal takes a little more training but its doable, or local police departments, sheriff's departments, law enforcement divisions and private protective services, or Military Police department in the various branches, Army, Air Force Etc… also the local, state and federal prison systems are constantly looking for help, in addition you can also work in the dispatch department of any of the aforementioned agencies, or the being a border patrol agent,  and state and federal park rangers, private sector is always looking for internal security agents theft and loss prevention although this may be a bit lower in the pay scale.\nKeep in mind that most of the jobs I have noted do require additional training but the vast majority will pay you while you are in the academies or schools like POST. Also you may want to visit one of the federal government web sites to check on job over seas if you like excitement. I hope this helps good luck!

That guy is lying!  The meteroids took out the dinosaurs.  The ice age was much later.  Meteriods slammed into the Earth, kicked up a huge amount of dust into the sky.  From there, the sun couldn't get through the dust in the atmosphere.  Lack of sunlight killed all the plants and did make it a lil colder.  Plant eating dinos died first.  Then the carnivore dinos lost animals to hunt and kill because they weren't there to eat.  No food supply led to a slow death of them and most other animals on the planent at that time


You have the same damn problem I have. I just had a urine test last week and a blood test. I think maybe you could have an overactive bladder.

Check out the below link:\n\nhttp://profiles.yahoo.com/<user name>


Well, I know exactly what you are going through.  I had to raise a lot of money for a volleyball classic in Hawaii last summer.  Here are a few things I did:\n\n1.  There is a restuarant in a town 4 miles away from me that has awesome food and people from the region know that they have great food.  So what I did was asked them if I could raffle a $25 Gift Certificate for my trip.  I expected to pay them $25 for it, but they gave it to me for free!  The tickets sold for $.25 a piece or 5 for $1.00  I made a lot of money!\n\n2.  Next thing I did was sold glazed donuts every Friday morning at my school.  I ordered around 2 and a half boxes (keep in mind I come from a school with a total of 97 students in the entire high school).  Students from all grades would look forward to Friday morning donuts.  I sold them for $.75 a piece.\n\n3.  Ask local banks to make a donation.  Around here, banks love to do it.  Also, send out a letter to family members and friends of family, or even friends of family friends, and just let them know what opportunity you have.  Include with the letter a smaller enveloped already stamped and with your address(just attach an address label).  This way, all they have to do is put a check in the envelope and put it in the mail!\nhope this helps!

What is the difference between Visual Basic and VB.Net?

"the difference is obvious" as quoted from microsoft itself.\n\nVisual Basic .NET is in no way a sucessor of Visual Basic 6, its a completely new language that is named by Microsoft as Visual Basic, which is completely stupid as these makes confusion. (This is actually true, since VB.NET is not build on top of VB6, it's almost made from scratch)\n\nVB.NET is actually out of the road of Visual Basic, it doesn't have, in any way, Visual Basic essences. If you want to know, Visual Basic .NET is created by some stupid C (or C++, or C#)developers, not VB developers, stupidly interesting isn't it?\n\nAnd some people have also been saying that Visual Basic .NET is C# rebranded to get VB popularity over C\n\nVB.NET, IMO, should be put down, and VB7 (which is currently not available), should be put as the succesor of VB. VB7 would in my imagination, support .NET framework, but have the same concept to VB6

Do U.S. citizens have to pay taxes on money earned outside of the United States?

Been there done that.  Yes.  You pay taxes in BOTH countries.  The US gives you the first $80k or so "free", but you still get hit for state taxes and you MUST file no matter how little you make.  H&R Block charges about $200 for this "special" filing.


I would like to know the internal wiring connections for 208 VAC Electric 3 phase motors.?

Join the EVGray yahoo egroup.  There you will find people who can not only answer this question but teach you how to make it a Rotoverter that runs on a fraction of the wattage and can eventually be made to run "Overunity" with an identical motor for a generator putting out more power than it requires to run.  These Rotoverters are 3Phase motors wired for 3phase but run on normal house 110vac at lower horsepower rating but generating more power than they consume.


While I agree with your opinion, I like thunder storms, blizzards and wind storms - I live in a rural area and when these occur, I race around with my cats to watch from each window of the house - soon after we are exhausted and fall asleep for an afternoon nap.  But when I get up, I have to shovel or clean-up the debris.  It was worth it though, because the memories have been precious.\n\n....then there's the 4 O'Clock sun on a summer day when your shadow is long as you are walking home and you start to day dream - thats cool!

Barbie shares dreams with girls for over 45 years sonce 1959.  To some extent, Barbie becomes an icon for beauty and luxurious life.  Apparently, Barbie is always beautiful and in shape.  It's almost impossible to maintain that good shape through the years.\n\nSome parents are worried about their children would like to take barbie as a role model in keeping good shape.  Yet, it seems impossible to have the small waist-line like barbie.  Children might be in danger to lose weight and to do the unneccessary diet programme to keep the shape like the doll.  Some parents think that Barbie promotes the wrong attitude about weight and shape to teenagers these day.\n\nThe reason why Barbie has to have the small waist and comparien to real human Barbie is so skinny: Check this out,clothes and materials for her fashion are generally for real human size.  Comparing to real human size, barbie is about 1/6 tall.  The thickness of the clothes and material would look inappropriate to fit the doll if the doll as the real proportion of real human shape.  (Materials for clothes are generally made for real human size, once it's on the doll, it shows the thickness and made the doll look exagerrated fat)  That is the reason why doll maker has to keep the doll shap as thin as possible, so when Barbie wears a fashion it would look just right.\n\nThere was an attempt to produce doll which has the appropriate propotion to real human size, but the selling was not successful.  Barbie is still the best for little girl's choice.  Even Barbie might unintentionally promote the unneccessary keeping skinny shape, but having said that, Barbie is still representing gir's dreams, fantasy, ambitions, and a pleasure look to everyone.  Do you agree with me? =)


if you own a piece of land,can the state force you to sell it for any reason at any time?  i heard the could..

Simple answer: No \n\nHowever, I suspect I know what the person you heard this from was referring to. \n\nThe government has a power called "eminent domain" which gives them the ability to take any piece of land, although they are required to pay fair market value for it. This power is not unlimited, and generally has to be for a justifiable public purpose. You usually see eminent domain being used when a new freeway has to be built through an existing neighborhood. There has been a great deal of discussion about this lately because of a recent Supreme Court ruling that allowed the government to transfer a piece of land from one private party to another in order to faciliate economic development of the area. This was a *very* controversial opinion, because it seems to dramatically increase the scope of the eminent domain power by including private party to private party transfers rather than just the traditional private party to government transfers. Those who oppose the Supreme Court decision argue that this allows the government to take any land from anyone for any purpose, but this is probably an exaggeration. In any event, Congress is debating making a change in the law to limit governments from forcing one private person to sell to another private person.


What does UNAUTHORIZED PLEADING mean in law or a child custody case?

Perineural cysts\n\nDefinition\n\nPerineural cysts (also called Tarlov cysts) are abnormal fluid-filled sacs located in the sacrum, the base of the spine.\n\nDescription\n\nPerineural cysts appear to be dilated or ballooned areas of the sheaths that cover nerve roots exiting from the sacral area of the spine. The spaces or cysts created by the dilated sheaths are directly connected to the subarachnoid area of the spinal column, the area through which cerebrospinal fluid flows. Many people have perineural cysts but no symptoms at all; in fact, the majority of people with these cysts are completely unaware of their existence. However, when conditions cause these perineural cysts to fill with cerebrospinal fluid and expand in size, they can begin to compress important neighboring nerve fibers, resulting in a variety of symptoms, including pain, weakness, and abnormal sensation.\n\nDemographics\n\nMore women than men develop perineural cysts.\n\nCauses and symptoms\n\nA variety of conditions that can increase the flow of cerebrospinal fluid may cause perineural cysts to expand in size, creating symptoms. Such conditions include traumatic injury, shock, or certain forms of exertion (such as heavy lifting) or exercise. Prolonged sitting or standing may cause cysts to fill and retain fluid. Other research suggests that herpes simplex virus can cause the body chemistry to become more alkaline, which predisposes the cerebrospinal fluid to fill the perineural cysts, thus prompting the advent of symptoms.\n\nThe symptoms of expanding perineural cysts occur due to compression of nerve roots that exit from the sacral area. Symptoms may include back pain and sciatica, a syndrome of symptoms that occur due to compression or inflammation of the sciatic nerve. Sciatica results in burning, tingling, numbness, stinging, or electric shock sensations in the lower back, buttocks, thigh, and down the leg to below the knee. Severe sciatica may also result in weakness of the leg or foot. Other more severe symptoms of perineural cysts include loss of bladder control and problems with sexual functioning.\n\nDiagnosis\n\nBecause most perineural cysts don't cause symptoms, most perineural cysts are never diagnosed. When symptoms do develop that are suggestive of perineural cysts, MRI will usually demonstrate their presence, and CT myelography (a test in which dye is injected into the spine) may demonstrate the cerebrospinal fluid flow between the spinal subarachnoid area and the cyst.\n\nTreatment team\n\nNeurologists and neurosurgeons usually treat individuals with perineural cysts. A urologist may be called in to consult with individuals whose cysts are interfering with bladder or sexual functioning.\n\nTreatment\n\nAlthough using a needle to drain fluid from perineural cysts can temporarily relieve their accompanying symptoms, eventually the cysts will refill with cerebrospinal fluid and the symptoms will recur. Similarly, steroid injections can provide short-term pain relief. Pain may also be temporarily controlled by injecting the cysts with fibrin glue (a substance produced from blood chemicals involved in the clotting mechanism). Using diet or dietary supplements to decrease the body's alkalinity may prevent perineural cysts from filling with more fluid. Medications used to treat chronic nerve-related pain (such as anticonvulsants and antidepressants) may be helpful.\n\nWhen pain is intractable despite a variety of interventions, or when weakness or other neurological symptoms become severe, surgery to remove the cysts may be necessary. This is the only permanent treatment for perineural cysts; once removed, they very rarely recur.\n\nPrognosis\n\nMost individuals with perineural cysts have no symptoms whatsoever. Those who do have symptoms run a risk of neurological damage if the cysts continue to compress nerve structures over time. Individuals who undergo neurosurgery to remove the cysts usually have an excellent outcome, with no cyst re

what is the differnce between celeron CPU and pentium CPU?????

Here are the most important similarities and differences between the Pentium 4 and the Celeron chips coming out today: \nCore - The Celeron chip is based on a Pentium 4 core. \n\nCache - Celeron chips have less cache memory than Pentium 4 chips do. A Celeron might have 128 kilobytes of L2 cache, while a Pentium 4 can have four times that. The amount of L2 cache memory can have a big effect on performance. \n\nClock speed - Intel manufactures the Pentium 4 chips to run at a higher clock speed than Celeron chips. The fastest Pentium 4 might be 60 percent faster than the fastest Celeron. \n\nBus speed - There are differences in the maximum bus speeds that the processors allow. Pentium 4s tend to be about 30 percent faster than Celerons. \nWhen you sort all this out and compare the two chips side by side, it turns out that a Celeron and a Pentium 4 chip running at the same speed are different beasts. The smaller L2 cache size and slower bus speeds can mean serious performance differences depending on what you want to do with your computer. If all you do is check e-mail and browse the Web, the Celeron is fine, and the price difference can save you a lot of money. If you want the fastest machine you can buy, then you need to go with the Pentium 4 to get the highest clock speeds and the fastest system bus. \nalso u can check out this site for more info:\nhttp://computer.howstuffworks.com/question268.htm

you need to be more specific , i don't know if this will will help . i found a lot on the ten state survey but like i said you need to state exactly what you are looking for. sorry.\n\nPoverty and Nutrition Risk\nAn underlying premise of the WIC program (Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children) is that low-income predisposes women, infants, and children to poor nutrition status and health outcomes. By using both an income standard of up to 185 percent of the federal poverty level and nutrition risk criteria in determining eligibility for participation in the WIC program, the WIC program attempts to target scarce program resources to those individuals with limited economic resources who are at the highest risk of poor outcomes. Before reviewing (in subsequent chapters) the scientific evidence relating to the nutrition risk criteria used to establish eligibility for participation in the WIC program, this chapter presents evidence of low-income, or poverty, as a predisposing nutrition risk factor for women, infants, and children.\n\nDefinition of Poverty\nConsiderable controversy exists over how to define and measure poverty. A recent expert panel defined poverty as ''economic deprivation," reflecting inadequate economic resources for the consumption of basic goods and services (NRC, 1995). Poverty standards are generally called absolute measures and are based on the assumption that there is some objective minimum level of either income or consumption such that if economic resources are less than this minimum standard, individuals and families do not have adequate resources to satisfy their basic needs (Ruggles, 1990). Families and individuals are classified as being in poverty if their incomes are less than official poverty thresholds. The poverty measure was initially constructed by determining the cost of a nutritionally adequate low-cost food plan (then the Economy Food Plan, now the

Is it only me or do others get the impression that a lack of humour is lacking here ?

sorry, but you did it the wrong way. to share a printer you need a router with a 4 port switch and an integrated print server. this has the advantage of simultaneous use of the same internet connection from both PCs. furthermore it's not necessary to have both computers running for printing.\nhttp://www.dlink.com/products/resource.asp?pid=272&rid=821&sec=0\nthis router is also available in a wireless version\nhttp://www.dlink.com/products/resource.asp?pid=460&rid=1766&sec=0\nCaution: check if the print server is compatible with your printer! you will find a list of compatible printers on the given links.\n\nhow to install:\nconnect the modem with the WAN port of the router\nconnect the PCs to any port of the 4 port switch of the router (RJ45-RJ45 cable, regular)\nconnect the printer to the USB port of the router\n\nshared printer setup\ngo to control panel and delete the current printer settings\nsetup a new printer and configure it for "shared printing". do that on both PCs.\nfor printing only you don't have to enable file sharing, though it's necessary if you want to copy files from one PC to the other.

how can i do good on my debate??? i'm scared!?

The hardest part is always the anticipation... waiting for it to happen.  \nMake sure that you have all your information, that you are ready.. and if possible, act it out with someone you know, say it outloud to yourself... and look at your points, and think of possible oppositions, or counter-arguments to them.  After doing that, think of responses to these counter-arguments.  Make sure you've done the research.\n\nIf you have all of this done, then you should do fine.  Once you actually start your debate, you tend to get into it, so it doesn't seem as scary anymore.  The anticipation is always worse than the actual thing.  This is coming from my own experience.
