What faith are you and why do you like/not like it?

I was baptized Catholic as a baby, and raised that way throughout my early childhood. Eventually my parents stopped attending church, and so did I. I never really felt connected to what the Church preached, but I didn't question it because I had never been exposed to anything else. Eventually, I went on a self-exploration. I took it upon myself to find, research, and learn about other religions, views, beliefs, practices, philosophies, theories, etc.\n\nDuring my soul-search, I made a collaboration of different things I found to be logical, reasonable, logical, and sensible in my own personal opinion. I basically created my own religion. I followed that path for a while, and relished not conforming to an organized religion, because my beliefs were free to grow and change as I grew and changed (and learned). Then one day a friend introduced me to Wicca.\n\nWicca is a Neopagan religion, first reformed by Gerald Gardener in 1940 based on what is believed to be the beliefs of the ancient Celts. The more I learned about it, the more in coincided with the beliefs I'd already pieced together on my own. Its lack of dogma allows any follower to define his or her own beliefs within little restriction. This allowed my beliefs to continue to grow and change with me. It also does not require any follower to conform to any other follower's specific ideas, as you can either practice in a coven with others who hold the same views, or practice solitarily (like I do).\n\nI would recommend it to anyone looking for something to believe in. You can find out about it here:\n\nBut remember one thing! Because the specifics of the religion are free to be defined by the individual practitioner, no two Wiccans (or Pagans for that matter) will ever agree on everything. I am an open book to any questions you might have if you'd like to contact me through my profile page, or you can find nonbiased information about Wicca here: http://www.religioustolerance.org/witchcra.htm


How might a telescope be used for measureing star magnitude?

The only way that I know to do this with a normal telescope is to compare the star with others nearby of known magnitude and try to decide if it's brighter or dimmer until you find the same.\n\nOtherwise you'd need to measure the amount of light that comes from it, and I think you need computers to do that.\n\nThe magnitude scale is exponential, so deciding a magnitude ain't that simple. (ie a star of magnitude +2 is ten times brighter than a star of magnitude +3)

last date of service tax payment with SBI for march 2006?

Van Persie. Rooney is going to bomb out and never reach his full potential. How is anyone supposed to stand up to being compared to Pele? Van Persie does not have as much pressure on him as Rooney has. Van Persie comes off the bench whereas Rooney always starts. At that age he can't take this kind of responsibility. Van Persie looks like pure class when he plays, his kicking stlye and skills are fluid like. And playing with the best striker Thierry Henry and others like Bergkamp he would learn alot more then playing with Van Nistelrooy and Saha.


how do i know if my boyfreind really loves me!!!?

Ask him. Test him....u can never really know... or while he's eating sumtin wait until the last bite then ask him if u can have a bite & see what happens..if he lets u have the last bite then he loves u.


No.  I am a huge Laker fan, and I loved Byron...But he was a role player.  Jersey retirements in my opinion are for "legends" who played the game and contributed SIGNIFICANTLY to the history/legacy of a team.  While Byron was on champsionship teams, and he hit some big shots in big games, he was NOT the focal point of those championship teams like Kareen, Magic & Worthy.  When you think Lakers, Byron is not even in the top 10 of legendary players.

where can I find roommates who are not asking alot for monthly rent?

Besides Crags List, I would just look in the local paper.  I have tried to use many different renter's websites before, but none of them compare to the local paper.


Well you would have to ask yourself why you broke up with him in the first place. Did you only break up with him because he moved away, and then he came back and you got back together? Or was it something that you didn’t like and couldn’t resolve? Is he the type of guy that you want to be with and is he worth the trouble. If he is, then good. Here’s what you do to resolve this issue. You tell him that you want him to do something about this other guy harassing you. Men are really easy to figure out. We're problem solvers. You just telling him about this other guy may not move him into action until you tell him it's a problem. With guys you have to be specific with what you want from us. We see a problem, we try to fix it. If we don't see a problem, we probably won't act on the situation unless we're told to do so. If you tell your boyfriend that this is a problem and you want him to do something about it, I guarantee you he will. Especially if he really cares for you.


Does anybody know the name of the disease(s) that Emmanuel Lewis and Gary Coleman have?

Coleman was born with a congenital kidney disease causing nephritis (an autoimmune destruction of the kidney), which halted his growth at an early age, leading to a notably small stature (4' 8") which became his most distinguishing feature. Coleman has had two kidney transplants, one in 1973 and one in 1984, and requires constant dialysis.\n\nEmmanuel Lewis\nThe 3' 6" tall (he says there is no known medical reason for his still-short stature and has grown 6" since the age of 12) Lewis graduated from Clark Atlanta University with a theater arts degree in 1997. He is said to be looking for another TV series and to possibly go into directing. He is good friends with Marc Price ('Skippy' on Family Ties and now a stand-up comedian) and has gone on tour with him and done various promotional appearances with him.


Is there anyway to hold a company to their word in their email?

From what I understand, emails can be used as proof of an agreement between two or more parties. Yes, people could forge a fake one, but it is also easy to prove that the email came from their company to you. Whatever the case, keep the email and any other info you get from them. \nGood Luck and God Bless!


Radiation comes in many forms.  Light and radio waves are radiation, but they're not energetic enough to cause problems in low doses.  Of course, with enough light you can burn someone, and enough radio waves can do similar, but it's not as much of a problem as more energetic forms of radiation. \n\nForms of radiation which have enough energy or have charge characteristics such that they can remove an electron from a chemical bond are called "ionizing radiation", also sometimes called "hard radiation".  These are the dangerous forms of radiation.  \n\nThere are three types of nuclear radiation, gamma, beta, and alpha, all of which are ionizing.  \n\nGamma radiation is fundamentally the same as light, but is of a much higher energy, such that it can break a molecular bond.  It's very energetic, but electrically neutral.  Gamma radiation can penetrate materials better than other forms of nuclear radiation.  Gamma rays come from either reorganization of an energized nulceus, in much the same way that visible light can be emitted by reorganization of electrons in the electron orbitals, and can also be produced when an anti-electron kicked out by the nucleus collides with an electron and undergoes matter/antimatter annihilation.\n\nBeta radiation is high energy electrons kicked out of the atomic nucleus when a neutron converts to a proton.  It has a fair amount of energy, plus a negative one charge.  It doesn't travel very far and is fairly easy to shield against, but it can cause a lot of damage.\n\nAlpha radiation is the least penetrating of all, being stopped by ~5 cm of air, or a thin layer of materials, like a latex glove or a sheet of paper.  Alpha rays have a large charge, however, and if absorbed by living cells can be very dangerous.  Alpha rays are two protons and two neutrons, basically a helium nucleus, spit out of a larger nucleus at a fairly high energy.  \n\nAll of these forms can break a chemical bond, and if this happens in living tissue, and it happens enough, it can kill you.  Proteins necessary for cellular functions get snipped in two, or get ionized in a spot that causes them to fold and twist and become non-functional, DNA can be broken, and cell membranes can be damaged, causing holes in cells which can result in cell death.  It's something like being shot with a shotgun, only at the molecular level.  \n\nAcute radiation poisoning, the amount needed to kill you in a short period of time, is somewhere around a one time exposure of 200 REM or more.  A REM is a unit of radiation exposure based on total radiation of various types, and the absorption of human bodies to that form of radiation. It's a complex number to come up with, and much of the data we have to determine REM exposure is based on empirical data.  Acute radiation poisoning is a terrible way to die.  The exact symptoms vary depending on the type and total dose of radiation absorbed, but generally speaking protein synthesis is disrupted causing problems with rapidly replaced cells, like blood cells plus loss of hair and skin problems, cells die by the millions, tissue structure breaks down, internal bleeding occurs, organs fail, your brain can be damaged enough that you suffer neurological problems like seizures and dementia, and then you die.  It can take a over a week to kill you, it's horribly painful, and there's no treatment that can cure you. \n\nLower doses of radiation can cause enough damage that cancer can arise later, or can cause various forms of tissue damage and impairment, depending on the dose, and where you absorbed the radiation in your body.  The damage can be very variable, which is one reason it's difficult to say just how much radiation it takes to cause a problem.  There are some treatments that can minimize the damage of low doses of radiation, but it depends a lot on what type of radiation you were exposed to.  \n\nAlso, all living things do have cellular repair mechani


what is the easiest and safest way to clean a laptop/computer`screen?

This is how I do it:\n\nViva Kitchen Tissue + Rubbing Alcohol\n\nRubbing alcohol is antiseptic as well as reacts with the oils to remove them.\n\nViva is soft! (I also use a velvet cloth sometimes)\n\n\nCommercially, \nThere are special tissues available for this; I bought one for $6.99; was good for a year then the sheets dried out. The above solution works good so I didn't by another one.\n\n\nTO CLEAN INSIDE:\nCompressed air; I spray it once in a while on the fans from the outside to avoid the laptop to overheat.

Why is a generator armaturemore difficult to rotate when it is connected to electrical current?

Because the flowing of electrical current causes a magnetic field to be created which interacts with the outer core windings of the generator.  The turning of the inner core creates an opposing magnetic field in the outer (eletric core) and they interact.

Why do people (especially kids) get red ears when they get tired ?

I haven't seen a kid or person ever get red ears when tired.  I've seen red eyes!  My son gets red around his eyes when tired but adults get actual red eyeballs.  I'm guessing it's because your body is telling you to go close your eyes, so the blood is rushing to your eye area.  Sorry if that sounds like a dumb answer but that is all I could come up with.

how can i find out what this site is?192.168.0.1 my nortons keeps blocking it and disconecting my dsl con.?

Sorry dude, it's not msn.com.  It is a private IP range that is reserved for certain uses, such as for your router.  Whatever kind of router you are using (cable modem, DSL, wireless), the .1 at the end designates the router address.  If you go to a command line (Start, Run, type "cmd" without the quotes) then type in "ipconfig /all" without the quotes) you will see that your IP address is probably something like 192.168.0.2 or something, while the default gateway, dhcp and dns servers will all show up as 192.168.0.1.  These IP addresses in the 192.168.0.1 - 192.168.255.255 are not public IP addresses, meaning that they cannot be used on the Internet itself, only locally on a local network, which is what you have when you have a router in your home.  The router itself will have another IP address that it uses to go out to the Internet.  It will only have one IP address.  By using the 192.168.0.2 - 192.168.255.255 range of IPs, you can have a lot of computers using that one router to connect to the Internet with only one IP address.  This is much cheaper than each computer having to get its own public IP address.  I hope this is clear enough and not too technical.\n\nAs for your Norton blocking it, I'm assuming you are using the Norton Firewall.  You just need to add this IP address to the table to allow it to access the Internet.  Good luck.

Ah, Ash Wednesday.  The meaning of Ash Wednesday is that it's the first day of Lent for Latin Rite Catholics (Most Eastern Catholics begin Lenmt or the Great Fast on the Monday preceding the West's Ash Wednesday).  Lent is the forty day period during which the whole Catholic Church is supposed to reflect and prepare for the Death and Ressurrection of Jesus Christ.  The forty day period is mainly derived from the time in the Gospels where Christ retreats to the wilderness for forty days and forty nights, in preparation for preaching.  We are supposed to puriy ourselves in order to be better witness to the Life, Death and Resurrection of Christ.  Why so much emphasis here, well, most Christian religions believe that Christ died on the Cross to save man from the Original Sin of Adam and Eve, and so the Crucifixion and Ressurrection of Christ are central to the Christian religion no matter what denomination you belong to.  In fact, it is one of the few points that nearly all Christians agree upon.\nAs to ashes, they always have been a sign of repentance.  In the Old Testament, remember ashes and sackcloth.  The ashes still retain that same significance and are a sign of repentance, i.e. attoning for past sins and resolving to avoid them in the future.  Interestingly, not all Caholic Churches make the sign of ashes on the forehead as is commonly believed.  In Poland, for example, the minister will sprinkle the ashes over the head of the recepient in the form of a cross.  Also, ashes are supposed to remind us of the impermenance of earthly things.  One of my professors brought forth this very interesting point, most ashes for Ash Wednesday are made from the palms used at Palm Sunday (the celebration of Christ's entry into Jerusalem preceding his Crucifixion) the previous year.  These palms were a sign of earthly glory.  In the Gospels, we find the same crowd once chorusing "Hosanna!" to shouting "Crucify Him!"  The fleetingness of earthly glory.  The palms, these signs of earhtly glory, are burned to show us just how fleeting they are.  Also, the ashes remind us of our own mortality, as the minister quotes the Scriptures while distributing ashes:  "Remember, thou art dust and to dust thou shalt return."  Our bodies came from the dust of the Earth and will decay back into the earth, but our souls shall remain.

if your into sports hardcore you should tell the girl upfront before you get serious! right?

First of all it doesn't matter if your hobbies include sports, music, video games, or as someone mentioned being a mass murderer...  whatever it is i would assume that before things got serious it would have come up in conversation at ONE point or another, or otherwise its not a hardcore hobby...  or u just met someone off the street, and said hey u want to become serious??  lets hop in bed...  and oh btw what is your name???  Then the other answers, yeah my name is bob and btw im a huge sports fanatic hope thats not a problem...  i mean come on people its common sense, it doesnt happen like that, unless your some sort of prostitute...  Was going to use another word, but it got ***'d, heheh\n\nIt starts as a friendship, and then develops from there, and if you don't know your friends hobbies, than i can't help you...  oh btw, even if you don't tell her, I'm sure at some point all your sports memorbalia, and baseball cards, etc. arouond your room, JUST MIGHT be a dead give-away...\n\nBottom line is if you have to ask this questioon, then your not ready for a serious relationship yet...  If you still have things about yourself that she doesnt know abouot, i'm sure she has things that you don't know aboout as well...  Do yourself a favor and get to knoow eachother first...  Or you might find out the hard way, that she is indeed that mass-murderer that was mentiooned :-)

What is the difference between C++ and C#?

C# is actually a lot more like Java than it is C++.  They are both object-oriented languages, but C#, like Java, is designed to be compiled to "byte code" rather than an native application (that is, one that will run without the .Net framework).  Most C++ compilers create native applications.\n\nC# also handles memory management issues for you, so you are not required to keep track of what memory you have allocated.  However, it does not guarantee for you when exactly your objects will be destroyed, which can be a pain in some circumstances.

Do you think it's wrong for Anjolina and Brad to travel constantly with 2 little ones?

Do I think it's wrong ?  No.  I think a child exposed to many cultures and places is a good thing .  I think a child cared for is always a good thing no matter where they might be at the moment.  I think a child feels home is more about the stability of the key adults in their life then about location.  I think it's great that Brad and Angelia are using their resources to help children who may otherwise have very bleek futures, it's commendable.  I also think everyone is angry with them for hurting Jenifer who was like Princess Diana "down to earth" a common soul.  I think for this reason attempts are made to make them the union of Sodom and Gommorah.  The reality is those buying tickets to the firestorm from heaven may as well get in the refund line.  It's not happening.  I think traveling with children is the least of the worries for this couple.  Now let's get outraged about B.Spears and her baby in her lap not buckled in.  Here are two people caring for kids who wouldn't have many options apart from them and maybe they will marry, maybe the won't but they've both stepped up to plate for other peoples children.  That's more then many do for their own children.

how many of you out there believe in love, signs, fate and destiny? does everything happen for a reason?

Nothing happens by chance.  There are two things that control our lives; fate and destiny.  Destiny is the lesson we were born in this life to learn.  We cannot change this.  Fate is the things that happen that we make choices on to help us learn the lessons.  There is a reason for everything that happens.  We are allowd to make choices.  We are given help(signs), and after we live our lives, if we made the right choices, we move on to another life and another lesson.


I don't think you could ever MAKE love last, but you could do things to help keep a relationship strong. You always should be 100% honest and truthful, no matter how hard that is. You should respect the other person and get respect back. Listen to one another and give advice. Don't ever try to control a person. If you feel like you have to control them to keep them from cheating on you or something, then you don't trust that person and without trust, you have nothing. Make that person smile as much as you can. Laugh with eachother and don't take little things too seriously. Just have fun and love eachother the best you can.

Since space is very close to being a vacuum, the only way energy can travel from the sun to the Earth is through the process of radiation (as opposed to conduction or convection).  Radiation relies on energy traveling in electromagnetic waves through the vacuum and hitting Earth (thus heating the Earth).  In a vacuum, all electromagentic waves, light included, travel at exactly 299,792,458 m/s, this comes out to about an 8 minute travel time from the surface of the sun.\n\nBut your question of "How many seconds does it take for the sun to warm up the earth?" doesnt really make any sense beyond what I just explained.

If 0 < t < 90 and sin(t) =3/5 , then sin(2t ) =?

From\n\nhttp://faculty.ed.umuc.edu/~swalsh/Math%20Articles/Double%20Angles%20and%20Half.html\n\nthe formula for sin(2t) = 2sin(t)cos(t)\n\nWe thus have to know cos(t) as well as sin(t), which is given. From the sine, we are obviously dealing with the famous 3-4-5 triangle. If the 3-4-5 triangle is not famous to you, use 5^2 - 3^2 to get 16, and the square root of that is 4.\n\nThus the cosine of the angle is 4/5, and\n\nsin(2t) = 2(3/5)(4/5) = 24/25


derivation of b in the y-intercept slope equation, where did the b come from in the equation?

Draw any line passing through origin. Its equation is y = mx and the slope ‘m’ is y/x.\n\nNow move the line up (or down) through a distance‘d’ with out changing the slope. The line cuts the y-axis at a distance d from the origin. This is y-intercept.\n\nThe x-coordinates of all the points on the line remain the same whereas all y-coordinates increase (or decrease) by‘d’. But the slope remains the same and x coordinates also remain the same. Therefore we give a correction to y coordinate to keep m constant.\n \nDenoting +d or -d by ‘b’, the slope of the new line’ ‘m’ is (y- b) /x. \n\nThus the equation of any line in slope intercept form is \n\nm =(y - b)/ x. or y = mx + b.

that's when you can't get enough of the pillsbury doughboy. his short stature and his plump belly are too much for you to resist. his cute laugh of "hee hee" makes you weak in the knees. The only way to cure it is to give in to his ravenous desires. accept his bread stick, and his dinner rolls. and let him coat your grands with his icing. you'll be cured in 7 days.

Columbus did not discover America, so why do we honor him with a holiday?

wow, what a good question, I hope people with interesting racial ideas about colonisation and the genocide of the native people go into more detail than I I have time for right now.\n\nwhy the holiday ... its a part of the story the country tells itself, to define itself.  every country has a "once upon a time, there was ...this place... and then some people came and did amazing things... and that's why we exist!" whatever, and down through the centuries, certain people who were real at some point get mythologized, like columbus and davy crockett.  these figures are always white european males, but that's how it goes.  \n\nbut its changing - we already have martin luther king day, so I have hope for a better story for the future...

Yes. I do confess with my mouth that "Jesus is Lord" and God had raised Him from the dead.


No you can't.It was once said that when some has an epileptic seizure they swallow their tongue.It's not possible to swallow your tongue because it is attatched to your lower jaw.Even if you cut it,you can't swallow it.When a person has a seizure it rolls to the back of their throat blocking the airway.Never stick your finger in a persons mouth during a seizure,they can bite down and bite off your finger.Use a tongue depressor or a spoon,even a popsickle stick.


How important is physical size in law enforcement?

Go out and join law enforcement. If you have the education and the training, you should do fine.\n\nHowever, be aware that the people who you will deal with are living a different reality than you and me. They operate on the law of the jungle. The strong survive and power means everything. I happened to be a tall, strong law enforcement officer and I rarely have a suspect fight me. They have told me my size made them think twice before fighting. If you are small in nature, you may have to fight more. And keep in mind, most of the time you will have one or more back-up officers with you. Citizen who see us three or more deep arresting someone don't realize that we bring a lot of officers out to avoid fights. We know the nature of these people.\n\nWith that said, all of the smaller officers I know are fully capable of doing this job. Just be aware of what you might be getting in to.

Me and a friend had sex and now i feel that we aren't close anymore could it be cause we had sex?

Talk to him. tell him how you feel, and if he understands and respects your descisions then thats great! if he doesnt then good ridance! he's not worth it, and he's an as*hole for using you!\n\nBut for things to work out you need to stop having sex with anyone, you have to start loving and respecting yourself, being introduced to sex at young age must have been traumatic for you. \n\nif you like reading books, i seggest you find this book: Title-your past doesnt determine your future\nAuthor: Bo Sanchez\n\nhe has the same problems on what you have, this book is very cheap and so worth it.\n\nif it's not available at your place, give me your address and i can mail it to you, dont give your address on-line.\n\nif you want to talk to me, this is my email: lovesoulmandy@yahoo.com\n\ni've been through, what you've been through. but i overcame them.


Any surgical proceedure, however minor - and vasectomy is indeed minor surgery - will entail a bit of discomfort.  How much discomfort one feels after such a proceedure depends mostly on how well the guy copes with pain in general.  Most of my patients who had the proceedure felt little more than a dull ache for a couple days, whilst a chiropractor I know was uncomfortable for a month.  His reaction is rare and I suspect it stems as much from his distrust of all "allopathic" physicians and proceedures as from actual surgical trauma.  So if you are considering the proceedure - go for it!  Just remember - once done, it CANNOT be undone!

What turns you on in following the odd rules of a bronze age tribe?

This is a logical fallacy, appeal to novelty, that states that because something is newer it is better.  There is nothing, per se, wrong with following customs that are centuries old just because they are old.  It's just as wrong as the "Give me that old time religion" argument, which states that because it was good enough for Paul and Silas, it's good enough for "me".  That's an appeal to tradition.  People should follow what actually works, regardless of when it was developed.  I guess this isn't really an answer to the question, though.

what is the definition of christian counseling for troubled youth?

plz don't listen to the previous person forgive him. You do have to chose carefully as to who you go to though. It is equivalent to any counseling. It depends on you church and how they view the world. You don't  want any of the 2 extremes not too conservative and not too liberal. The media would have you think that christian counseling is wrong but so are shrinks. It all depends on how you are trying to raise your youth. It is as everything people perceive it all depends on what you want your child to learn.

Do you feel it hard to believe that space goes on and on and on and on..........?

No, I think it's relatively easy to believe.  As a sentient species our past has been riddled with assumptions of the cosmos.  In reality, what we usually find is that the nature of the cosmos is far from what we assume and often counter intuitive.  Take the world is flat perception:  from the ground looking out into the ocean, it would be easy to assume that the Earth was flat, as the horizon looks like it ends and you would fall off the planet.  Also looking at how the sun is at different points in the sky during the day, it would also be easy to assume that the sun orbits the Earth.  Grand assumptions on behalf of humanity are not new.  If the Universe continues to expand, it could just be the limited intelligence of our species which fails to comprehend that our Universe can expand as far as we are concerned, there is literally nothing beyond the edge.


Like the refractive index of urine (specific gravity) it depends on the concentration of the dissolved solutes.

It is non-specific, and even a reading in the 'normal' range would not preclude an electrolyte imbalance.

Investing... What is a reliable source, if you don't really know what you are doing?

As Mark Twain stated: Predicting is a difficult task; specially when you predict future.\nObviously there is no such thing as a 100% reliable source.\nHowever, you can find relations, trends, etc. that can help you to take better-informed bets, but they will still be bets.\nYou can consider such things as P/E, cost structure stability, sales and/or/ net income growth, etc.\nAnd don't expect a 100% result. (if you achieve it , launch a fund)

Is online education and the various degree they provide like MBA etc useful?

An on-line degree can be just as valuable as one earned through a traditional, on-campus degree program--if the on-line program is sponsored by an accredited/credentialed college or university that has a solid reputation.  \n\nThe question really should be whether an on-line program can meet your specific educational needs as well as a  traditional program.  Before you rush off to enroll, stop a moment and consider whether or not virtual learning is right for you.\n\n\nIs the class or program of study offered by an accredited university?\nDoes this university have a solid reputation in the field in which you will pursue your coursework or degree?\nWhat sort of training do the instructors have?\nHow long will it take to complete a course or program of study?\nAre all of the classes taught on-line or will you need to attend a real classroom some of the time?\nIs the class taught in real-time (meaning you'd have to log on during specific hours/times/days), or is time management up to me?\nHow much will it cost me?\nAnd, finally, is there any financial aid available to me?\n\nIf, after working through these questions, you're satisfied with your answers, an on-line degree program may well be a good match for you.\n\nGood luck!

how much does heavy water weigh per gallon?

heavy water is about 10% heavier then regular water.  \n\nDensity of heavy water = 1.1056 g/ml \nDensity of regular water = 0.9982 g/ml\n\nYou can calculate the conversions to gallons.\n\nAnd oh yah that earlier guy is an idiot.  Heavy Water is not radioactive.  It is a stable molecule that is used in nuclear reactors.  B/c of its greater density it is perfect for the control of nuclear reactions.

Time to not trust Russia wouldn't you say?

Wake up and smell the coffee hon. If you think we have no spies in Russia you are dreaming. This is just a part of the international espionage game which has been going on for decades. This kind of thing happens everyday, its just that most of the time it goes unannounced. CNN is acting like its the god damn biggest story in the world. Things with Russia are going to keep going on just like when they discovered that Hanson guy in the FBI leaking information to the Russians. Nothings going to change and theres no need to get all worked up. Besides, thanks to Bush, the US owes Russia so much money its not even funny. We never really trusted Russia in the first place, so it doesnt even matter.\n\n\nPeace


effect of 100% stock dividend versus 2 for 1 stock split?

They are equivelent. Before you had 1 share of the company's stock. After you have 2 shares. Afterwards the share value, everything else being equal, is 1/2 the share value before. All it is, is a method for a company to lower the value of their stock shares by doubling the number of shares outstanding. There is the perseption among some companies that shares trading in the $30 to $40 range are more attractive to investors than shares trading in the $60 to $80 range. Generally but not always, the company will also raise the cash dividend at the same time.

preliminary protein purification techniques?

It varies depending whether you want the final product as an active protein or denatured.\n\nFrom cells\n\nHomogenisation\nCentrifugation (assuming you know what fraction the protein will be in)\n\nYou could then possibley use centrifugation across a glucose gradient that would further separate proteins or more simpley...\n\nFind a pH or temperature where the protein is insoluble. (Extremes will denature the protein)\nor...\nUse a size exclusion coloumn to filter out larger smaller proteins (depending on the coloumns specifications and your needs, won't denature).\n\nFor further purification:\n\nUse isoelectric focusing across a gel.\nUse a affinity chromatography coloumn specific to your protein.\n\nHope that helps. It's from memory and should be ok, I study biochemistry so if I've things wrong then I should be quite worried!

How can I let go of her and let my love for her die?

I have found that one of the hardest parts of letting go is allowing yourself to see the person who broke your heart.  When you see her, you are allowing yourself to feel all the emotions over again and it makes it difficult for you.  If you stop spending your free time going back to her, then you can fill your days with things you enjoy doing.  You will feel better about yourself and will not feel the pain caused by being rejected by her again.  She will always be in in your heart and you will think of her from time to time, but that doesn't mean you can't live a happy life without her.

what is cursor? & what is the use of curcors ? & with examples in sqlserver2000.?

A cursor is a moving marker or pointer that indicates a position. English-speakers have used the term with this meaning since the 16th century, for a wide variety of movable or mobile position-markers.\n\nThe literal meaning of the original Latin word cursor expresses the idea of someone or something that runs.\n\nQUICK GUIDE TO USING EXPLICIT CURSORS WITHIN SQL*FORMS 3.0 \n~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ \n\nMany users perceive Explicit Cursors as a difficult means of retrieving \ndata from the database. In reality, only a few basic concepts are needed \nto implement this flexible method, thus, maximizing efficiency and \ndeveloper control. \n\nA cursor is a named SQL statement. From the PL/SQL User's Guide and \nReference Manual (Page 2-16): \n\nWhen a query returns multiple rows, you can explicitly define a cursor to: \n\n* process beyond the first row returned by the query \n* keep track of which row is currently being processed. \n\nCursors allow the designer precise control of the multiple values returned \nby the cursor's SELECT statement. \n\nNote that explicit cursors should be used in specific cases only. For most \napplications, the default database block is sufficient and easier to use \nthan explicit cursors. Please read the last section of this document for \nsituations where explicit cursors may be appropriate. \n\nPOPULATING MULTI-RECORD BLOCKS \n~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ \nExplicit cursors can be used to query records into a block, similar to \na normal EXECUTE_QUERY within a database block. The basic difference \nbetween these two methods is that each record queried into the block \nis tied, by rowid, to a row in the database. An explicit cursor \nretrieves the data and places it into a field as if a user had input \nthe data by hand. A more in depth discussion of the differences is \nincluded in the last section of this bulletin. \n\nBelow is a simple example of populating a multi-record block using \nexplicit cursors. To recreate this you will need to use the standard \ndatabase tables that are supplied with SQL*Forms: create a non-base table \nblock F_EMP, with 3 fields F_EMPNO, F_ENAME and F_DEPTNO that have the same \ndatatypes and field lengths as the standard EMP fields EMPNO, ENAME and \nDEPTNO in the database. \n\nKEY-HELP \n\ndeclare cursor C1 is select EMPNO,ENAME,DEPTNO \nfrom EMP \nwhere DEPTNO>10; \nbegin \ngo_block('F_EMP'); /* This isn't necessary if you are already in \nthe block where the values are being entered */ \nopen C1; \nloop \nfetch C1 into :F_EMP.F_EMPNO, :F_EMP.F_ENAME, :F_EMP.F_DEPTNO; \nexit when C1%notfound; \nnext_record; \nend loop; \nclose C1; \nfirst_record; \nend; \n\nNote the looping structure. The FETCH, grabs the next (or first) row from \nthe table satisfying the cursor declaration, INTO the specified fields. If \nit is not the last record, then the cursor is moved to the next record and \nthe next FETCH INTO is performed. After the cursor is closed, the cursor \nis put on the first record of the block, the same functionality as a \nregular database block query. \n\nAvailable cursor options are \n\n%NOTFOUND : TRUE if fetch failed because no more rows were available. \n%FOUND : Logical opposite of %NOTFOUND. \n%ROWCOUNT : Returns the number of rows fetched from the active set so far. \n%ISOPEN : TRUE if explicit cursor is open. \n\nfor more details -\n\nhttp://experts.about.com/q/Oracle-1451/use-cursor.htm

What criteria do you use to determine if the information you find on the internet is reliable?

Whether the source is well-knows as being reliable. Whether the source is biased to say something specific (companies can never be trusted with scientific data). And, whether the data appears to hold up to theory.\n\nAs a nanotech student I use a lot of information found on the internet, but most if it is more practical information (how to conduct specific experiments) than theoretical (can be found in books). Consequently, it is easy to see whether the information is useful or just bogus.

Why is the computer allowing me to browse the internet explore but not play online games like Warcratf 3, WOW?

You can try calling them...if you e-filed, you should have it w/in 5 business days, otherwise it is more like 7-10 business days. I got mine w/in 3 business days and my federal tax refund w/in 7 business days.


When will Bush run out of shoes to drop?

Have you noticed every day on the news, headline is Bush DEFENDS this decision, Bush DEFENDS that decision, I am wondering the same thing. His approval rating is down to a point that he should take notice that he is not representing the majority of American people. Some of his decisions may even be dangerous to the American people. Examples are the ports deal and now that nuclear deal with India. To me the way it has been going lately I will breathe a sigh of relief when his term is over.


Yes.Every state and most countries extradite prisoners when the crime they committed is under the jurisdiction of another state or country.


Why aren't my pages being indexed by search engine?

The previous answers are absolute nonsense and do not even answer the question.\n\nYour feeling that it is the url is correct and also the product pages are more than 2 or 3 url hops away from the home page.\n\nYou can solve this problem easily by doing three things.\n\n1. Use Apache's mod_rewrite to make the urls search engine friendly. http://www.phpfreaks.com/tutorials/23/0.php\n\n2. Create a 'conventional sitemap' on your site for the product pages and link to it from every page. http://www.seo-blog.com/sitemaps.php\n\n3. Use 'Google Sitemaps' to submit all your pages for crawling. https://www.google.com/webmasters/sitemaps/docs/en/about.html\n\nPerform the tasks in the order of 1, 2, and 3 and do not be tempted to leave one of them out :)

How can I loose about 25 lbs without starving?

Try eating 5 or 6  healthy snacks throughout the day instead of the usual 3 meals a day.  This will help with the hunger.  \n\nExercise is very important.  Try to do some cardiovascular at least 5 times a week.  If you're not used to it, start out walking at a moderate pace for 30 minutes, then after a few weeks, build up to 45-50 minutes of walking.\n\nIt takes alot of patience, but hang in there...the pounds will come off.


My male besfriend likes my girl friend but i dont want him to get hurt cause i know her too well, wat do i do?

i found my self in the same situation and i could tell you if he doesnt understand, let it be. dont crack in too hard. \nyou dont need to look the bad guy. \nlet him take a chance & see you were only caring to say something early. \n support is more noticable than a paradox.

Lots of things...I had a mother that would make me go out and get a "hick-ry" stick and then she would use it on me for what I did that was wrong! I remember the worse paddling I got at elementary school was from the principal with a 3" leather paddle !!  You want to know what I did wrong? "Thumping" english peas across the table in the lunch room!!! Kids now days need to have prayer in schools, the 10 commandments and get physical discipline...not beatings !!!


i am pregant and i have a bruse on my lower spine shaped like a u it is real big but it dosent hurt.what it it

Never heard of anything like this in my practice before.  If you haven't already, see your OB.  If he/she doesn't know what it is then see a spine specialist.  Good luck.


if he smiles at you ,touches you, exposes his palms, hugs you means that he likes me. also notice when he's talking to someone else when he's with you, if his body is pointing torward you (he likes you). let him know your into him, but dont make yourself to available also.


Is there a wesbite with a chore list of a 19th century servant?

No there isn't, but my family had many servants during that era and I can tell you what each was responsible for. At least one female servant was a Wet Nurse. Women did not breast feed their own babies, it was the duty of the wet nurse. Female servants cleaned and polished furniture, prepared all meals, did laundry, dressed and cared for children of all ages, swept, mopped, if they were literate they also may have kept a "ladies journal" for their matron. Ladies Journals were pretty much a diary. They washed and set their matron's hair, but did NOT sew or repair the matron or master's clothes. They did sew/repair clothing of the children. A man's servant cared for his horse/livery, repaired leatherwork, washed and set his master's hair, and shaved the master with a straight edged razor. He also arranged liaisons with women for the sole purpose of the master's sexual pleasure. He occasionally was responsible for the training of male children, though usually they were sent to a boarding type school after a certain age. The master's servant could be responsible for bookkeeping if he was literate, though this was often NOT the case. He did not prepare meals, but did prepare beverages and deliver refreshments for the master and his guests. Usually the master's servant was also his confidant, though rarely was he trusted with financial matters. He was also responsible for laundering the master's clothes and pressing them, etc.\n\nI hope this helps you. The structure of family in the 19th century will help you to understand the role of servants in that era.


how does probability relate to camouflage?

good question.  i can wear blaze orange and have deer walk within 10 feet of me.  i can wear wetlands camo and have ducks light up within 10 yards of me.  i can wear khaki shorts and still get a limit of doves.\n\nthe important thing is to stay still, camo isn't as important as staying still.  animals will notice motion before they notice something that seems out of place.  humans are probably the same, but more discerning of patterns and things that seem out of place.


Can one actually make money on the internet?

YES!  \n\nI do it all the time!  \n\nMarried guys send me IM's through Yahoo! Messenger.  I find out who their wives are (google sure is wonderful isn't it) and then tell them I know their wife.  Talk to them about how I am learning to be a Certified Financial Planner and offer my services to help him and his family out financially. \n\nThey come for ... what-EVer ... and leave smarter and less anxious to stray from home, I hope.


how do i tell my loved one that i love him/?

Just tell them that you do. It is sometimes a difficult thing to tell someone that you love them, but the fear of doing it is much worse. Plus, life is way to short to not let someone know that you love them....and chances are, they probably WOULD LOVE TO HKNOW THAT YOU LOVE THEM!!!! Go for it! Good luck


Can I copy federal documents like Passport, Social Security Card etc...?

Yes - you can make a copy.  They just will not be accepted anywhere.


what is the contribution of in house training in human resource development?

I should think it would be considerable, especially in retail trades, where turnover is so high.  I know I have made application to the human resources department of a major department store, and been told I was OVER qualified (as an experienced legal secretary), even though I had never worked in that field.  I think if you go to the larger department stores or chain supermarkets or discount marts, they would be happy to have someone with little more than a high school diploma, good recommendations, and a willingness to work up from the bottom.  Should be worth a try, anyway.\n\nIf you were to try to get formal education, I suppose you would want to combine classes in the business administration department and the psychology department.  Those seem to be the two most important areas for human resources work.  I doubt whether there is a formal degree in human resources, but if there is, one of the other answerers is bound to correct me.


Who believes in the time cube theory I think its stupid but what are your thoughts?

I find it interesting that the individual producing the time cube theory claims that mathematics (and by implication, all science other than what he/she approves) is nonsense has declared that set of opinions on a medium that required the mathematical and scientific work that the individual curses...  The internet, and its support technology, has been built and supported by the stuff this fellow decries.\n\nFrom my standpoint, that's like someone cursing farmers and cooks while eating...\n\nJust my opinion, of course.  I'm the embodiment of all that he or she anathematizes: so is modern medicine.  I wonder what the person would do if he/she got pneumonia or a nasty case of malaria?\n\nTo move into new territory, of course, you have to find new thoughts to think--I think it's one of Fudd's Laws: to find what no one else has found, you have to look where no one else has looked.\n\nWith that said, I have to disagree with the content of the site, and wonder about what there is in the author's background that causes such an attitude.  Certainly, there is a strong element of lack of knowledge: math and science, as they exist at this point in time, certainly embrace both singularity and plurality, and a great deal of other things.  They're not nearly so limited as the individual in that site seems to feel they are.\n\nOh, well...  Time to move on, or I shall ramble.

Is it true that people go missing on myspace?

If you mean people's accounts disappear on Myspace, yes, that obviously happens. If you mean people physically disappear aka get kidnapped or killed due to Myspace, that is true as well. But you have to be lacking in common sense for that to happen--most of the time it's giving personal information (ex: home address or phone) to strangers online that leads to people's general disappearance.

can anyone state the methods of changing the constitution?

Here's the actual wording of the Constitution on how it can be amended:\n\n"The Congress, whenever two thirds of both Houses shall deem it necessary, shall propose Amendments to this Constitution, or, on the Application of the Legislatures of two thirds of the several States, shall call a Convention for proposing Amendments, which, in either Case, shall be valid to all Intents and Purposes, as part of this Constitution, when ratified by the Legislatures of three fourths of the several States, or by Conventions in three fourths thereof, as the one or the other Mode of Ratification may be proposed by the Congress; Provided that no Amendment which may be made prior to the Year One thousand eight hundred and eight shall in any Manner affect the first and fourth Clauses in the Ninth Section of the first Article; and that no State, without its Consent, shall be deprived of its equal Suffrage in the Senate."\n\nIf you need clarification, Wikipedia has a pretty decent summary (it's long, but it's worth it):\n\n"The authors of the Constitution were clearly aware that changes would be necessary from time to time if the Constitution was to endure and cope with the effects of the anticipated growth of the nation. However, they were also conscious that such change should not be easy, lest it permit ill-conceived and hastily passed amendments. Balancing this, they also wanted to ensure that an overly rigid requirement of unanimity would not block action desired by the vast majority of the population. Their solution was to devise a dual process by which the Constitution could be altered.\n\nThe first option must begin in Congress which, by a two-thirds vote (of a quorum) in each house, may initiate an amendment. Alternatively, the legislatures of two-thirds of the several states may ask Congress to call a national convention to discuss and draft amendments. To date, all amendments have been proposed by Congress; although state legislatures have on occasion requested the calling of a convention, no such request has yet received the concurrence required for such a convention.\n\nIn either case, amendments must have the approval of the legislatures or of smaller ratifying conventions within three-fourths of the states before becoming part of the Constitution. All amendments save one have been submitted to the state legislatures for ratification; only the 21st Amendment was ratified by individual conventions in the states.\n\nUnlike most constitutions, amendments to the U.S. constitution are appended to the existing body of the text, rather than being revisions of or insertions into the main articles. There is no provision for expunging from the text obsolete or rescinded provisions."


Dihydrogen Monoxide (DHMO) is a colorless and odorless chemical compound, also referred to by some as Dihydrogen Oxide, Hydrogen Hydroxide, Hydronium Hydroxide, or simply Hydric acid. Its basis is the unstable radical Hydroxide, the components of which are found in a number of caustic, explosive and poisonous compounds such as Sulfuric Acid, Nitroglycerine and Ethyl Alcohol.


What is the best way to feel happy in the life?


Has anyone ever had a question not post?

Decisions made by government regarding the health and safety of the people are extremely difficult to change through the court system.  A Supreme Court case called Lee Optical established that as long as the law regulating medical practices in particularly, and health and safety generally, has a "rational basis" for being enacted, it will stand.  This is a state medical board decision, and it would likely be granted the same kind of broad deference.  The only way you could seek to change that regulation is to petition the board, and to enlist the help of others in petitioning the board.  That's just the way the democratic process works.

what will happen if earth's outer core stos rotating?

I know exactly what would happen.  In Boston, 32 people with pacemakers, all within a 10-block radius, suddenly drop dead. In San Francisco, the Golden Gate Bridge collapses, sending hundreds of people plunging to their deaths. In London's Trafalgar Square, flocks of pigeons lose their ability to navigate, flying into panicked crowds, slamming into windshields and causing drivers to lose control of their cars. And in Rome, as thousands of tourists watch helplessly, an electrical superstorm reduces the ancient Roman Colosseum to rubble. Scrambling to resolve the crisis, government and military officials call upon geophysicist Dr. Josh Keyes and a team of the world's most gifted scientists to travel into the earth's core in a subterranean craft piloted by "terranauts" Major Rebecca "Beck" Childs and Commander Robert Iverson. Their mission: Detonate a nuclear device that will reactivate the core and save the world from sure destruction.

Hi weekend in hospital with chest pain. ecg show un-specific changes in v3. pain comes from under sternum.help

Well non-specific changes in one lead do not mean much in themselves.  In the setting of chest pain, they become a bit more worrisome.  Take comfort in the fact that you are in a facility where they will take care of you.  Many people come to this forum with no insurance...they have no benefit of "waiting for doctors to run tests on them;"  all they get is this forum (sad).  Even if you have blockages, the treatments now days are excellent.  So, wait for the tests and good luck!!

What's the weather prediction for this summe?

You can't really predict weather for such a late period. Multiple and unknown events can happen in a span of 3 months. It's best not to try and predict the weather for a season that's not even here yet. However, the weather will probably be fairly the same as previous years.

Why do you men open-up your financial status and properties to the woman you like?Is this a sign that you love

Because they were told long ago that if you get a good job and have financial stablity that you will be able to get any woman you want. It simply isn't true, but some guys seem to be convinced that it is. I would hope that personality and kindness were more important.


The Raiders are trying to get back up Falcons QB Matt Schaub.They probably will have to give up a 4th or 5th round draft pick and a couple players for him though.Kerry Collins is gone.Andrew Walter and Tuiasosopo will battle for the back up position in training camp.There are still some moves Al Davis can make in free agency for a QB,its still early.The Raiders will not use their 1st round pick on a QB,I wish people will quit saying that.Im about 90% sure it will Matt Schaub


Does a person have to be in love with someone to say I love you, or can you only be friends?

No, I love my friends very much. You do not have to be in love with someone, to love them. A friend is not a true friend in your eyes unless they hold a special place in your heart. Choose your friends wisely, but love the good ones, it is really hard to find a good friend but when you do there is nothing better.


How do I remove my name from the title to a house?

The rules for this will be different depending on where you live, but in general the county assessor's office will have a change of ownership form you will need to fill out and get properly notarized.  I suggest you contact them directly to find out the procedure.  \n\nYou can also contact any real estate escrow company if you'd like to hire someone to help walk you through the process.  It might cost a couple hundred dollars but you'll be guaranteed that everything goes smoothly.\n\nSee the link below for some example answers for Orange County, CA\n\nUpdate:  Yes, that's right.  It's called a "quitclaim" form.  I remember now.  Check with the local county assessor's office.

Computer memory is perhaps the most rapidly changing component in computer systems. Back in the early '80s, 1K memory chips were quite common in the first home microcomputers. Now, 25 years later, the average home computer may contain memory modules of 1GB, representing growth by a factor of 1 million times, compared with only a 1,000-fold growth in CPU speed.\n\n \nDespite this enormous increase in memory capacity, many of the problems that exist on today's machines are the same as those of their early predecessors--namely, running out of memory. The more RAM that is available to a software developer, the more the developer tends to use. Certainly techniques of memory conservation have changed with the times. In the early days of computing, programmers used clever tactics to tighten code loops or reuse blocks of memory at the expense of code readability, in order to cram impressive amounts of code into tiny amounts of RAM. Today, code size is rarely a concern anymore, and attention has shifted to storing large amounts of data--images, video, audio, and tables--but little else has changed. The articles in this series deal with memory management issues on modern Unix-like systems. Most of the topics apply to all computers and operating systems.\nMemory management is an important concept to grasp regardless of which programming language you use. You must be most careful with C, where you control all memory allocation and freeing. Languages such as C++, Java, Perl, and PHP take care of a lot of the housekeeping automatically. Nevertheless, all of these languages and others can allocate memory dynamically.

What is a lethal amount of lysine to take in a day?

Lysine is one of numerous amino acids that the body needs for growth and tissue repair. It is classified as one of the nine "essential" amino acids because you need to get it from outside sources such as foods or supplements--in other words the body can't make it on its own.\n\nLike all amino acids, lysine functions as a building block for proteins. It's also a key player in the production of various enzymes, hormones, and disease-fighting antibodies.\n\nMany foods supply lysine, but the richest sources by far include red meats, fish, and dairy products (milk, eggs, cheese). Vegetables, on the other hand, are generally a poor source of lysine, with the exception of legumes (beans, peas, lentils).\n\nThere is currently no official recommended dietary allowance (RDA) for lysine. It is estimated, however, that the daily requirement for an adult is approximately 12 mg per kilogram (2.2 lb) of body weight. While many people satisfy their need for lysine through dietary sources, supplements are now popular for treating and preventing specific ailments as well.\n\nHealth Benefits\n\nResearchers are exploring the value of lysine supplementation and the consumption of lysine-rich foods for lowering cholesterol, improving athletic performance, and enhancing recovery after surgery.\n\nSome nutritionally oriented physicians and dentists recommend taking lysine during an outbreak of canker sores to speed healing. The exact cause of these tiny but quite painful mouth ulcers is unclear, but most research indicates that a virus is responsible. However, there have been almost no clinical trials using lysine as a remedy for canker sores.\n\nThe most promising application of lysine is its use in managing and preventing painful and unsightly herpes sores caused by the herpes simplex virus (HSV).\n\nSpecifically, lysine may help to:\n\n# Prevent and relieve cold sores (herpes). Exciting research over the past several decades suggests that lysine may be helpful in controlling herpes simplex-related infections. There are two types of this virus: type 1, which typically causes cold sores or fever blisters around the mouth, and type 2, which tends to cause genital sores. However, both forms can cause eruptions around the mouth or on the genitals. Once infected with the virus, you have it permanently. It may lie dormant, but it doesn't go away. Outbreaks are usually painful and unsightly, as well as contagious.\n\nA few years ago, researchers discovered that in order to grow (replicate), the herpes virus needs arginine, another common amino acid. (Foods high in arginine include chocolate, peanuts, almonds, seeds, cereal grains, gelatin, and raisins.) Lysine competes with arginine for absorption and entry into tissue cells. And when lysine is present, it inhibits the growth of HSV by knocking out arginine.\n\nThis makes a diet high in lysine and low in arginine a useful tool in managing HSV infections. In a recent study, participants consumed large amounts of lysine (about 1 gram three times each day) while restricting food sources of arginine. A significant number of participants (74%) noticed an improvement in their HSV infections and a decrease in the number of outbreaks.\n\nLysine supplements (as opposed to foods high in this nutrient) can also play an important role in staving off and reducing the severity of herpes-related cold sores. Results of a six-month trial involving more than 50 people indicate that lysine is far more effective than a placebo in preventing cold sores. Participants given a placebo had more than twice as many such infections as those taking lysine. Moreover, the herpes sores that did develop in the lysine group tended to be milder, and to heal faster, than the outbreaks in the placebo group.\n\nLysine supplements may even prevent HSV outbreaks in chronic sufferers.\n\n# Speed healing of shingles lesions. Painful shingles blisters are caused by a reactivation of varicella-zoster virus, an infection that s

Have you posted a website with what is going on and how they can help?  Maybe on your 360 page?  You could walk around your neighborhood and pass out flyer's with your contact information and the facts about the event.

printing cuts off part of the right side of what i'm printing?

That's pretty common, and it tends to happen only with Web sites laid out with fixed-width tables, layers or divs controlling their layout.\n\nAn 8.5x11 page is about 700 pixels or so wide when it has 1-inch margins. Unfortunately, most Web designers will set the master layout to be between 720 and 760 pixels wide, to give them a fixed medium on which to design.\n\nYou can try adjusting the margins on your page (File --> Page Setup menu); or, if that doesn't work, you can see if in the Preferences for your printer (usually a button on the File --> Print menu dialog) allow you to scale the printout down, to, say, 90%; finally, you can change the page to print in landscape, rather than portrait, which will generate more pages but show everything left-to-right.

I donate free childcare for college students with children (up to 6 hours) during mid terms and finals.\nI purchase 10 sets of winter hats and gloves every year for Community Connection, I also purchase personal hygiene items monthly and donate them to Shelter From the Storm (a domestic violence shelter). I choose to purchase items rather than giving money, this way I know for a fact the money is being used for it's sole purpose.


The secret to using chopsticks is to hold one chopstick in place while pivoting the other one to pick up individual portions. How to position the chopsticks is the secret you have to learn. First, place the first chopstick so that the thicker part rests at the base of your thumb and the thinner part rests on the lower side of your middle fingertip. Then, bring your thumb forward so that the stick will be firmly trapped in place. At least two or three inches of chopstick of the thinner end should extend beyond your fingertip. Next, position the other chopstick so that it is held against the side of your index finger by the end of your thumb. Check whether the ends of the chopsticks are even. If not, then tap the thinner parts on the plate to make them even. Ok, now you are going to practice. Just place a little pressure on the upper chopstick, the one against your index finger, to make it pivot on the index finger while keeping the bottom chopstick stationary. Isn't it easy?


What are the potential uses of genetics in the future?

how do i turn a tif file into a jpeg file?

open the file in any photo editor that supports TIF formats and re-save it as an optimized JPEG or, if you can, a regular JPEG. You can also use an image type converter, but those are very tedious.


I want to install .net2005 but it needs service pack 2.what should I do.I don't want to setup XP again.?

You don't have to install windows XP again, just go to your control panel and on the left hand-side you will find windows update click on it and it will take you the windows update site, it then will automatically scan your computer for updates, download and install them, you should find SP2 as one of them.\nAnother option is to go directly to\nhttp://update.microsoft.com/microsoftupdate/v6/default.aspx?ln=en-us\nWhich should work the same.
