i wanna know about Overnight Programming Contests?

Most of the techfests (Technical Competition Festivals) have many different contests which happen during the day. The only time left in general schedules is during the night when not many contest happen. This is the perfect time to organize a programming contest, where competition is not just about how fast you can code, but also on your stamina to sit in front of the keyboard after the long hectic day you already spent without any sleep.\n\nThe competition rules can vary according to the organizers. I have personally participated in various techfests across India while in my first/second year at college. One of the overnight competition by IIT Roorkee in their techfest called  Cognizance(http://www.cognizance.org.in/) had the following rules during last 2 years:\n\n(1) March 2004 : One single software had to be developed in 12 hours. We had to build an chemical equation balancer, that could balance not just ordinary, but complex compounds. It had some added completixities with the question\n\n(2) March 2005 : 4 questions in 12 hours. \n\nBy now, most techfests have this feature. One of the good ones called Saturnalia is currently has to upload its website : http://www.tiet.ac.in/saturnalia/index.html, would either be in February or March 2006.\n\nAs far as language as concerned, C/C++/Java, all three are allowed in contests. Keep on a lookout for techfests across the nation, you will surely find good experience while beginning which will one day take you to the top. I wouldn't refine my answer much, but here are some other techfests round the corner with their approximate timings, with repect to previous year trends :\n\n(1) IIT Bombay - Jan\n(2) IIT Kharagpur - 1st week, Feb\n(3) IIT Delhi - 3rd week , Feb\n(4) IIT Kanput, last week, Feb\n(5) IIT Roorkee, 3rd week, March\n\nThe real one : ACM, between Oct - December \nhttp://icpc.baylor.edu/icpc/\n\nBudapest 24 hour contest : third week, Feb\nhttp://www.challenge24.org/\n\nWeekly programming contests : Topcoder \nhttp://www.topcoder.com/

Jesus a God or a man-he born-he eat-he do evary thing as a man  so who is allah in brief--thanks?

Islam honors all the prophets who were sent to mankind. Muslims respect all prophets in general, but Jesus in particular, because he was one of the prophets who foretold the coming of Muhammad. Muslims, too, await the second coming of Jesus. They consider him one of the greatest of Allah's prophets to mankind. A Muslim does not refer to him simply as "Jesus," but normally adds the phrase "peace be upon him" as a sign of respect. \nNo other religion in the world respects and dignifies Jesus as Islam does. The Qur'an confirms his virgin birth (a chapter of the Qur'an is entitled "Mary"), and Mary is considered to have been one of the purest women in all creation. The Qur'an describes Jesus' birth as follows: \n\n"Behold!' the Angel said, God has chosen you, and purified you, and chosen you above the women of all nations. Mary, God gives you good news of a word from Him, whose name shall be the Messiah, Jesus son of Mary, honored in this world and in the Hereafter, and one of those brought near to God. He shall speak to the people from his cradle and in maturity, and he shall be of the righteous. She said: "My Lord! How shall I have a son when no man has touched me?' \nHe said: "Even so; God creates what He will. When He decrees a thing, \nHe says to it, 'Be!' and it is." [3:42-47]\n\nMuslims believe that Jesus was born immaculately, and through the same power which had brought Eve to life and Adam into being without a father or a mother.\n\n"Truly, the likeness of Jesus with God is as the likeness of Adam. He created him of dust, and then said to him, 'Be!' and he was." [3:59]\n\nDuring his prophetic mission, Jesus performed many miracles. The Qur'an tells us that he said: \n\n"I have come to you with a sign from your Lord: I make for you out of clay, as it were, the figure of a bird, and breathe into it and it becomes a bird by God's leave. And I heal the blind, and the lepers, and I raise the dead by God's leave." [3:49]\n\nMuhammad and Jesus, as well as the other prophets, were sent to confirm the belief in one God. This is referred to in the Qur'an where Jesus is reported as saying that he came:\n\n"To attest the law which was before me, and to make lawful to you part of what was forbidden you; I have come to you with a sign from your Lord, so fear God and obey me." [3:50]\n\nProphet Muhammad emphasized the importance of Jesus by saying: \n"Whoever believes there is no god but Allah, alone without partner, that Muhammad is His messenger, that Jesus is a servant and messenger of God, His word breathed into Mary and a spirit emanating from Him, and that Paradise and Hell are true, shall be received by God into Heaven. [Bukhari]


if some one gets arrested for control device, what are they charged for. what does this mean?

if you mean "controlled substance" that means any kind of drug or narcotic that is either illegal or requires a prescription.  if they don't have a prescription or it's on the DEA's schedule of drugs, they can be charged with "possession of a controlled substance".\n\non the other hand, i've sometimes heard "control device" used for when someone is arrested multiple times for drunk driving.  in some states the judge will order that a device, basically a portable breathalyzer, be installed in the person's car.  this makes it so that they have to blow a clean (no alcohol) test in order to start their car.  presumably someone could be arrested for disabling or removing it.


Well "cookie" meaning a person, is american slang, first appearing in print about 1920.\n\nThe first appearance in print of "smart cookie" -- not who said it first -- was in the 1948 book F.

hOW DO I GO ABOUT WRITING AN ARTICLE ON THE INVISIBLE HAND?

Economics. Laissez Faire. Adam Smith.\n\n\n\nThe Invisible hand is a metaphor created by Adam Smith to illustrate the principle of "enlightened self interest." Today this principle is associated with psychological egoism. In The Wealth of Nations, Adam Smith makes the claim that, within the system of capitalism, an individual acting for his own good tends also to promote the good of his community. He attributed this principle to a social mechanism that he called the Invisible Hand.\n\nEvery individual necessarily labours to render the annual revenue of the society as great as he can. He generally neither intends to promote the public interest, nor knows how much he is promoting it... By preferring the support of domestic to that of foreign industry, he intends only his own security; and by directing that industry in such a manner as its produce may be of the greatest value, he intends only his own gain, and he is in this, as in many other cases, led by an invisible hand to promote an end which was no part of his intention. Nor is it always the worse for society that it was no part of his intention. By pursuing his own interest he frequently promotes that of the society more effectually than when he really intends to promote it. I have never known much good done by those who affected to trade for the public good. \nSmith uses the metaphor in the context of an argument against protectionism and government regulation of markets, but it is based on very broad principles developed by Mandeville, Butler, Shaftesbury, and Francis Hutcheson. In general, the term "Invisible Hand" can apply to any individual action that has unplanned, unintended consequences, particularly those which arise from actions not orchestrated by a central command and which have an observable, patterned effect on the community. Bernard Mandeville claimed that private vices are actually public benefits. In The Fable of the Bees (1714) he laments that the "bees of social virtue are buzzing in Man's bonnet": that civilized man has stigmatized his private appetites and the result is the retardation of the common good. Bishop Butler claimed that pursuing the public good was the best way of advancing one's own good since the two were necessarily identical. Lord Shaftesbury turned the convergence of public and private good around, claiming that acting in accordance with one's self-interest will produce socially beneficial results. An underlying unifying force that Shaftesbury called the "Will of Nature" maintains equilibrium, congruency, and harmony. This force, if it is to operate freely, requires the individual pursuit of rational self-interest, and the preservation and advancement of the self. Francis Hutcheson also accepted this convergence between public and private interest, but he attributed the mechanism, not to rational self-interest, but to personal intuition which he called a "moral sense". Smith developed his own version of this general principle in which six psychological motives combine in each individual to produce the common good. In The Theory of Moral Sentiments, vol II, page 316, he says: By acting according to the dictates of our moral faculties, we necessarily pursue the most effective means for promoting the happiness of mankind. A contemporary example of such an effect could be the far-reaching social benefit realized via the proliferation of computers and software; goods which have been produced almost entirely by people trying to maximize their own economic gain. Presumably those producers didn't manufacture the computers and develop the software out of a love for humanity or an altruistic desire to promote society's collective fortune. Any social benefits that have accrued therefore, according to Smith's doctrine, are simply a by-product of their striving for selfish reward.\n\nContrary to common misconceptions, Smith did not assert that all self-interested labor necess

why hot air balloons raise? - for a 10 years old girl?

Hot air is less dense than cold air so it rises 9that's why upstairs in a house is usually warmer than downstairs).  By filling a bag with hot air you can make the bag (balloon) rise up.

Why Banks cash  counterfeit checks/USPS Money orders??

I suspect they cash accept them for deposit for the same reason that you deposit them, they appear to be the real thing. Anyone with a decent laser or inkject printer can create a check that looks real. If some basic information on the check is correct (such as a realistic routing number and an account number of the correct format) the accepting bank will not know the check or money order is forged untill it is rejected by the issuing bank.\n\nYou are wise to warn about this very common scam. If you make a legitament sale to someone overseas, it would be a good idea to speak with your bank about the safest methods to receive payment.

They mate in large swarms and then females go off to look for a suitable place to start excavating a nest. Soon after matying the males die. Mated females may live and lay fertile eggs for many years after their single mating. Reproductive ants, at the time of mating, are easily told from workers -- they have wings! If you were designing an insect that lives in tunnels underground, would you give them wings? If you are one of the lucky few who watch ants enough, you'll get to see the ant solution to the problem wings impose for digging in the ground.

How come when i type in my IP number in the Internet Bar the username and password screen doesn't appear?

I wonder what "IP number" you mean -- the IP address you are using when you connect to the Internet, or the IP address of a point elsewhere, such as a website?\n\nOr maybe you are just trying to connect to your wireless router and set up your own network?\n\n"Linksys routers, for example, use 192.168.1.1 for their internal IP address. D-Link and Netgear routers typically use 192.168.0.1. Some US Robotics routers use 192.168.123.254, and some SMC routers use 192.168.2.1."


how was the athens democracy different than other government?

It was the first democracy of the world which ironically was born out of slavery.2500 years ago in Ancient Athens women spent their time mostly at home. Men had to do shopping.Men don t like shopping..So their slaves did it for them and the men took the free time available to discuss things that mattered to them.And "democracy" was born in the year 508 b.C.It was only for men whose both parents were Athenian.A huge step in the history of human kind if you consider that today,half the population of the world lives under a regime that is non democratic!(Boy,are we lucky or what)!

What's the difference between making reservations for a restaurant and the concept of "Call Ahead Seating"?

A reservation is when you call and have a table set aside for you.\n\nCall-ahead seating is when you call before you leave for the restaurant and put your name on the waiting list, or inquire as to whether you'd be able to be seated if you came. \n\nIn other words, a reservation is (ideally) a sure thing; call-ahead seating just increases the chances that you'll be seated faster, or, if the line isn't long, confirms that you'd be able to get seated when you arrive.


what the best ideas for starting a home business.?

Suggestions For Building Your Subscription Business\n\nIT'S FREE\n\nAs an Independent agent of  , your opportunities are unlimited to build your subscription business. As an agent, you are authorized to use magazine covers in any of your own promotional material. You are allowed to market your business any way that you want. Here are a few suggestions to help build your business.\n\n\n(1) Think large for the long term, but think small in the beginning. Start your business by contacting people that you know ( friends, family, neighbors etc. ). Let these people know that you are in business, and explain to them what a convenient service you provide. Sample promotional letters are available upon request. For example:  Since the average household takes approximately six magazine subscriptions, by ordering and renewing through you, they would only have to write one check, one time, to you, for all of their subscription needs. The customer also does not have to deal with any customer service issues, so if there is a problem, you can handle it for them (by contacting our office ).\n\n(2) Network your subscription business as a fund-raiser. Contact local schools, churches, civic groups etc. who want to raise money for their organization and keep a percentage of sales as your profit.\n\n(3) Take advantage of any gift giving occasion ( holidays, birthdays, engagements, graduations, etc.) Keep a log of all special occasions for your customers. For example:\nWhen it is the birthday of the mother of your customer, contact the customer and suggest a subscription as a gift. Not only will your customer had not thought of previously. Again, you are providing a service and your customer will probably be glad that you called and made the suggestion.\n\n(4) Contact local business who having waiting areas (family doctor, pediatrician, dentist, beautician, mechanics etc.) More than likely, these offices have someone who is designated to handle magazine renewals in addition to their other job responsibilities. This is an excellent opportunity for you to offer your service at little or no additional cost to the customer.\n\n\n(5) Ask existing customers for referrals. Most businesses get their start this way. For example: Your beautician built his or her client base from referrals of existing customers. Word of mouth is the most powerful form of advertisement.\n\n(6) Contact your local Chamber of Commerce to get a listing of businesses ( and their address / Phone Number) in your area. Write a letter of introduction, or use our suggested letter of introduction, to contact them. There may be a small fee to get this list.\n\n(7) Contact large businesses in your area. These employees not only have reception areas, but the management staff usually receive a variety of subscriptions.\n(8) Keep updates on new residents in your area. Write a letter to welcome them to the community and tell them about your service. Form a business relationship with a local company that deals with major purchases ( real estate brokers, car salesman ). Suggest that they give a gift subscription to any new customer who makes a purchase. If you deal with a real estate broker, you will know who the new residents in the community are, and you can contact them for other subscription business.\n\n(9) Build relationships with your customers. Follow up with existing customers on a regular basis ( every 3 mos. ) to make sure that they are happy with their subscriptions. And there are NO problems. Hint: Customers follow up is crucial to your business. If you do not follow up, your credibility can be destroyed. If you only call your customers once a year (when it is time to renew ), they will be less likely to renew through you if there have been problems and you were not available to handle them throughout the year.\n\nHere is a suggested contact schedule:\n\n1st Contact - Make the subscription sale. Let the customer know that you will be contacting them in approximately 3 months to v

Following World War II, the British withdrew from their mandate of Palestine, and the UN partitioned the area into Arab and Jewish states, an arrangement rejected by the Arabs. Subsequently, the Israelis defeated the Arabs in a series of wars without ending the deep tensions between the two sides. The territories occupied by Israel since the 1967 war are not included in the Israel country profile, unless otherwise noted. On 25 April 1982, Israel withdrew from the Sinai pursuant to the 1979 Israel-Egypt Peace Treaty. Israel and Palestinian officials signed on 13 September 1993 a Declaration of Principles (also known as the "Oslo accords") guiding an interim period of Palestinian self-rule. Outstanding territorial and other disputes with Jordan were resolved in the 26 October 1994 Israel-Jordan Treaty of Peace. In addition, on 25 May 2000, Israel withdrew unilaterally from southern Lebanon, which it had occupied since 1982. In keeping with the framework established at the Madrid Conference in October 1991, bilateral negotiations were conducted between Israel and Palestinian representatives and Syria to achieve a permanent settlement. On 24 June 2002, US President BUSH laid out a "road map" for resolving the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, which envisions a two-state solution. However, progress toward a permanent status agreement was undermined by Palestinian-Israeli violence between September 2000 and February 2005. An agreement reached at Sharm al-Sheikh in February 2005 significantly reduced the violence. The election in January 2005 of Mahmud ABBAS as the new Palestinian leader following the November 2004 death of Yasir ARAFAT, the formation of a Likud-Labor-United Torah Judaism coalition government in January 2005, and the successful Israeli disengagement from the Gaza Strip (August-September 2005), presented an opportunity for a renewed peace effort. However, internal Israeli political events between October and December 2005 have destabilized the political situation and forced early elections, scheduled for March 2006.


what steps do i take in order to get a job in europe? how do i start networking?

Well, it would depend very much on who you are and where you are currently.  It would also depend on your field of work, etc.  \n\nYour question is similar to asking "I don't want to be bored, what should I do"?  It is self referential and should contain more specific parameters.\n\nHowever, I will tell you this.  You can't network unless you know where the network is.  You should figure out what you want to do and where.  then start trying to meet people who are nationals of that place or at least are in businesses from that place.  \n\nI can't imagine why, unless you live someplace very unsavory, you have the idea life in "Europe" is better than where you are.  The grass always looks greener on the other side of the fence...sometimes it is because it is over the septic tank.  Now don't get me wrong, but "Europe" isn't necessarily an easy place to live if you are a foreigner with only his/her labor to offer.  It is a nice place over all and very interesting, but don't think your life will get better just because you go there.


i want to search about the using of weather and climate?

Weather.com is a really good site(I use it too)\n\nWeather is an all-encompassing term used to describe all of the many and varied phenomena that can occur in the atmosphere of a planet. The term is normally taken to mean the activity of these phenomena over short periods of time, usually no more than a few days in length. Average atmospheric conditions over significantly longer periods are known as climate. Usage of the two terms often overlaps and the concepts are obviously very closely related.\n\nWeather is driven by the different amounts of energy received from the Sun on different parts of the planet. Because of a planet's curvature, sunlight is incident at different angles at different latitudes (higher latitude -> lower angle of incidence -> less heating). Different types of surface (e.g. ocean, forest, ice) have different properties of reflectivity (albedo) and absorb differing amounts of energy. It is mainly due to these two factors that the surface is heated to different extents.\n\nThese surface temperature differences cause vertical wind currents as the hot surface heats the air directly above it. This hot air expands and rises lowering the air pressure and drawing colder air into its place, which is in turn heated and rises and so on. When the hot air later cools it shrinks and sinks lower, increasing air pressure and displacing the air already below it. Horizontal wind currents are formed at the boundaries between differentially heated areas and can be exacerbated by the presence of sloped surfaces. The simple systems thus formed can then display emergent behaviour to produce more complex systems and thus all other weather phenomena. A large scale example of this process can be seen in the Hadley cell and other forms of atmospheric circulation, a smaller scale example would be coastal breezes.\n\nThe only two fundamental causes of weather are thus surface temperature, and to a lesser extent, elevation.\n\nAny precession in a planet's orbit will affect the amount of energy received at a particular spot throughout the year. This effect causes seasons and may influence long term weather patterns.


I use to live in Alabama and now I live in the Mid-Atlantic region and it's stereo typed that the south is....

You are correct that there is a stereotype of racism in the South. I think that racism is more woven into the fabric of society in the South. In the Mid-Atlantic region there are racists as well, although part of what you are running into is that you are probably in a more urban area. There you see more division between the "urban culture" and others. You see a lot more Black activism in the urban areas, and there are a number of people who advocate for positions against White people. \n\nThe other aspect of moving from the South to the North is that you came from a place where their was more of a community feel to it, and now you are in a more urban area where lots of people are "transplants" there and there isn't the same sense of shared values. So there is a lot more open discussion of differences.\n\nWhich brings me to my last point: In the South we didn't discuss our differences openly. You smiled and then stabbed people in the back! In the North they talk out loud about stuff.... :o)\n\nOf course, one should never be surprised by what people do who claim to be Christian. Remember the Inquisition? Lots of wars have been fought and people tortured and killed in the name of Jesus! Most Christians, of course, are good, peace loving people.

What type of ethernet hub (or switch) do I need?

You could try a standard linksys (or any oter brand) hub with 4 ports.  You can pick one up for about $20.  It will depend on your cable company and if they allow multiple connections at one time.  If they don't, you can get a standard ethernet router for about $29 or $39 with 4 ports.  It will act as a single entry point to the cable modem and look like one PC.  If you get one with wireless, it will cost a bit more.\n\nYou might want to check your cable company documentation or ask them what would work with their equipment.\n\nGood Luck!

how long have you known him?  what do you feel?  I mean really feel in your heart, physically, mentally?  are you sure it isnt just lust, infatuation, physical attraction or just puppy love. I believe if your in love with someone you will know without question.  I think the fact that your wondering if you are in love with him that maybe your not in love but one of the other things listed above.  Just my 2 cents


Y do parents think that their kids are goinna do bad things on dates?

Two reasons:\n\n1) They were young once, and so they remember how either they were or their friends were at that age.\n\n2) They love you, and are concerned. Statistics today show young people having sex at increasingly younger ages. \n\nDon't look at it as being annoying. You may be too young to understand right now, but love can drive parents to be overly protective. Be happy you have parents who are so concerned about your well-being.

Can Money buy happiness?  What's the magic $ number?

Money is a tool, a means to an end.  If having lots of it does anything for  you, it gives you freedom and choices.  There is NO inherent happiness in money.  It can improve your standard of living, it can alleviate certain kinds of stress, but no amount of money--no matter how big or small--brings you real happiness.\n\nI admit that I never met a dollar I didn't like.  I do what I can to bring in as much as I can, but honestly, I'm happy with my life.  I make a decent living; not great, and probably not what men my age and education earn.  I absolutely adore the work I do, and have been making a living at it for over 30 years.  My wife and I both work, but don't consider it a necessity any more than the ability to pay the mortgage, car payment, gas, insurance, groceries, utilities, and whatever else is left over for fun.  I have so much to be grateful for that has absolutely nothing to do with money that I actually wonder how much happier I'd really be with all that much more.  I'm not sure I would.\n\nI think you have a notion of this in your question.  I just think that once you get to a point in your life when you don't have to scrape for everything, you'll be there--and it won't be nearly as much as you imagined.  I wish you happiness, success, and good luck!


In Australia we say "fair to middling", but I read that in Texas they also say "fair to Midland". It means AVERAGE (fair=OK, middling=middle-ing).\n\nSo if someone says "How are you?" and you answer "Fair to middling". It means you are feeling OK, but not that good.

Well, do you know her so well so you can say you love her or you just like her a lot cause she`s popular?Think and choose one of this options.\nYes, say hello to her, or if you don`t catch her online send her an email.\n\nFirst talk to her,be yourself,tell her that you like to speak to her,find out what she likes and if you see she`s interested about you than you can tell her that you love her.\n\nBut do that after you see if your characters match and she likes you, so you won`t get hurt.\nIf she doesn`t want to know you, be strong and look front.\n\nYou didn`t tell us how old are you...but anyway she`s not the only girl in the world.\nJust start to talk to girls.Maybe you are shy at the beginning but after a while talking with girls you will get used to it and it`s gonna be easier.\nYou`ll get more confident.

A beam of white sunlight entering a snow bank is so quickly scattered by a zillion ice crystals and air pockets that most of the light comes bouncing right back out of the snow bank. What little sunlight is absorbed by snow is absorbed equally over the wavelengths of visible light thus giving snow its white appearance.


What is the best way to cure Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome?

Most of us have cysts of some size on the ovaries.  It's really common.  It's only when they are large or painful that there is a problem.\n\nThere are a lot of medications out there that the doctor can prescribe.  If you can find a good iodine supplement, it's the best help with all cysts - ovarian or breast.  In Japan, their daily intake is about 100 times our RDA of 150 micrograms per day and they have virtually no breast or ovarian disease.\n\nIf your area is like mine, you will have to find a supplement on the web, since iodine, besides being a very required mineral in our diet, is also used in making some street drugs and most health food stores do not carry iodine supplements.  They usually do carry kelp tablets (which are high in iodine) and that may also help.


What is your opinion on this caol miner situation?

First off, most girls do NOT like being referred to as Chicks.Other than that, meeting women involves risk and alot of trial and error. Get out more! Go to where girls/women are likely to be and always ask your friends if they know female friends who would like to meet someone.Saying Hi to a random girl is a good way to start a conversation. Avoid pickup lines, fancy outfits, and bar scenes and just be yourself. Being confident about yourself and curious about other people is very appealing to most women(at least in my experience). Don't see rejection for a date as failure, simply move on and accept advice from your rejector if she gives you any.

Can skitzofrenia be caused by self harm?

No.  I don't think they've found the exact mechanism that causes schizophrenia, but it does seem to be genetic in nature. \n\nHowever, schizophrenia could cause self-harm by creating delusions where the sufferer believed that self-harm was necessary to accomplish something that the delusion led that person to think was necessary.


Why do Christians nowadays find it hard to follow Jesus' example of a holy life?

There are as many excuses as there are poor Christians. Where mediocrity is allowed or tolerated, mediocrity will flourish - people are sluggards. (As long as we are talking in generalities.) When a teacher raises the test standards, the class' average scores increase - the teacher does not make the students smarter; when the hurdle is higher, you've got to work a bit harder to clear it. If the standards are lowered, some self-starters will continue to excel, but the tendency will be for students to put forth less effort.\n\nThe example of Jesus' life is extreme. What He asked of His disciples was extreme - pick up a cross & follow Him - most of them suffered & died for the faith. What He asks of His disciples today is extreme - pick up a cross & follow Him - the cross being a symbol of suffering unto death.\n\nPeople are accepted in congregations if they are nominal Christians - be a pew-warmer & donate some money. An hour Sunday morning is usually enough - the rest of Sunday and the rest of the week is your own time to do what ya wanna (as long as it is fairly legal & fairly ethical).\n\nPeople are told to "believe" & be saved. "For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved." [Romans 10:13] They are told, you don't have to "do." "For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast." [Ephesions 2:8-9] They are told what you do or don't do won't save you, so it doesn't matter what you do... just "believe." The denominations grow (or keep, or try to minimize their dwindling numbers) by offering cheap grace. Cheap grace [a term coined by Dietrich Bonhoeffer] is forgiveness w/o repentance, expecting the Grace of God w/o discipline & Lordship discipleship, grabs the benefits w/o taking any responsibility, it takes grace for granted, even a "do it now - ask for forgiveness later" mentality.\n\nOhYa, most denominations will put some more requirements on believers - you must be baptized, you should read the Bible & pray.... But when is the last time you were told one of the signs of a believer is one who loves God with all your heart, all your soul, all your mind, & all your strength - all your being. [Deuteronomy 6:5; Deuteronomy 10:12; Deuteronomy 11:13; Deuteronomy 13:3; Deuteronomy 30:6; Joshua 22:5; Matthew 22:37; Mark 12:30; Mark 12:33; Luke 10:27 - evidently God thought is was worth repeating] Or, the believers' delight "is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night." [Psalm 1:2] "Open my eyes that I may see wonderful things in your Torah." [Psalm 119:18] How about a circumcised heart  where the Torah/Law/Commandments are written so you live them like Jesus lived them?\n\nHow many ~Marcion~ Christians read Luke 24:45 "And He opened their understanding, that they might comprehend the Scriptures," and then just read the NT? "The Scriptures" which the followers of the Messiah must understand are the OT!\n\nSo, what does the NT say about the 10 Commandments (which Christianity has watered down)? Watered-down? When is the last time you kept the Sabbath holy? A scheduled appointment [so many "Christians" don't even know when the Sabbath starts] by God; a whole day, not just 1 hour a week or so.\n\n"If ye love me, keep my commandments." [John 14:15] This is the Word of God, the Word made flesh, the Word Who was with God & is God before creation. The Word was given to Moses; he wrote it in the Torah - the first 5 books of the Bible - which includes the 10 Commandments. The perfect & unchanging Word from the perfect & unchanging God.\n\nApostle Paul, defending himself to Felix the governor against the false charges of High Priest Ananias & Tertullus, an attorney: "But this I confess unto thee, that after the way [i.e. following Messiah] which they [i.e.

Find the physical description of perscription mecication?

do plants need chlorophyll to make starch?

chlorophyll is needed in the process of photosynthesis. during the photosynthesis oxigen and glucose are produced. when glucose has to be transported from the leaves to the other parts of plants body it is changed into saccharose (sucrose).\nwhen it reaches for example roots and other parts it is transformed into starch. so it is obvious that in the soil there is no sunlight and in the roots there is no chlorophyll, but the process takes place. chlorophyll and sunlight are not needed.

How is 0-60mph technically measured by experts?

1. They rev the engine first, usually to an engine speed close to the torque peak. In at automatic, the gear will be in gear with the brake down, and in a manual, the car will be in neutral because the clutch is down in first. Sometimes a few runs are required to find the best engine speed for launching. Each subsequent shift is performed at an engine speed so that the next gear will be solidly in the power band, usually at or near the torque peak again.\n\nIn an automatic: the brake is depressed, and to launch they simultaneously "sidestep" the brake, and floor the accelerator.\n\nIn a manual: they drop the clutch 90% and ride the remaining 10% for a second or two in order to minimize wheelspin and transmission shock, so that as much power as possible is transferred into forward motion.\n\nSide note: all of these techniques wear the car's clutch or transmission. Another test, with far less wear, is the street start 5-60, which is a near idle engine speed launch. Sometimes Motortrend, etc. does this test with expensive cars where the manufacturer doesn't agree to let them have a full launch. \n\n2. The only rule would be using a flat runway, and making no modifications to the vehicle.\n\n3. It is the best measured run. It will typically take a number of runs to find the best launch point and shift points.\n\nI've never heard of SAE involvement. Basically its assumed the publication is honest in its measurement tool. That being said, there are a lot of variables that could use standardization: temperature, humidity, road surface, driver skill, gasoline, and even the specifically produced car unit. For this reason, slightly different results from different publications are not unusual.


what simple machines are used in an amusment park carousel.?

I would imagine that the simple machine that you are looking for is a cam.  If you look up at the top of the  pole that the carousel there is a rotating bar that has a U shaped bend in it that the pole is attached to.  This U shape will raise and lower the horse as the rotating bar rotates.  It is like the crankshaft in a car.  I would imagine that the rotating bar has a gear at the end that is turned by a larger stationary gear as the platform of the carousel rotates.

what is best remide for throat infection?

What causes a sore throat? \nA sore throat can have many causes. Some of these are listed below:\n\nMany common viruses, and even the viruses that cause mononucleosis (mono) and the flu, can cause a sore throat. Some of the viruses that cause a sore throat can produce blisters in the mouth and throat ("aphthous stomatitis"). \nBreathing through the mouth can produce throat dryness and soreness. \nSinus drainage may cause a sore throat. \nA sore throat can also be caused by bacteria. The two most common bacteria to cause as sore throat are Streptococcus (which causes strep throat) and Arcanobacterium haemolyticum. Arcanobacterium causes sore throats mainly in young adults and is sometimes associated with a fine red rash. \nA sore throat that lasts for more than 2 weeks can be a sign of a serious illness, such as throat cancer or AIDS. \n\n\nThe treatment of pharyngitis will vary according to the cause.\n\nLozenges (cough medicine) are often used for short-term pain relief. \nAntibiotics are only helpful when a bacterial infection is the cause of the sore throat. For bacterial sore throats, antibiotics have been shown to only affect the degree of pain by day 4 and shorten the average natural duration by 16 hours overall (14 people need be treated for a week to reduce the duration by one day)[6]. \nGargling with warm salty water is a popular household remedy, although there is only anecdotal evidence this gives other than temporary relief and likewise for the use of aspirin gargles. \nWarm tea can help temporarily alleviate the pain of a sore throat.

if there was a hole throught the earth.. and someone fell in.. would the hover in the middle? (gravity)?

That's an interesting qts. I assume that you wish to invlove pure physics in this qts. Forget all the heat at the core of the earth and also air resistance.\nConsider pure gravitation theory.\n\nIf say the fellow who fell in the hole has mass m\n\nThen force of gravity exerted by the earth is :\n\n  F = GMm/(r*r) ..... Where G - universal gravitation constant\n\n                            M - Mass of the earth\n                            r - distance between earth and body of mass m\n\n          acceleration due to gravity\n            = (1-h/R)g   .... where h is distance of body beneath the earth's surface and g is acceleration due to gravity at the surface of the earth.\n\nSo as the body comes closer to the core of the earth, h tends to R.\nSo the acceleration of the body goes on decreasing very much. So, body may not actually hover, since his velocity will be constant the instant it is at the core.

just like humans, pets can overdo it in the sun. And Actually pigs have no sweat glands. THAT is why they roll in the mud, so they can cool themselves off. French-fried pooch can peel, scab over and experience pain. Extreme cases can even lead to skin cancer.\nAccording to Novartis Animal Health, there are several things you can do to prevent disaster:\n#   Pay attention to your pet's exposed areas, such as around his lips, ears and nose. Apply sunblock to the tips of your pet's ears and the top of the nose.\n\n#   Protect your fair-haired pet. Just like people with pale white skin, dogs and cats with lighter-colored fur are at greater risk for getting sunburned.\n\n#   Keep your pet in the shade during peak sun hours (10 a.m. to 4 p.m.).\n\n#   Get your pet to a veterinarian if he starts looking like a tomato.\n\nDon't Overdo It In The Heat\n\n#   Heat exhaustion can kill your pet. Never leave a pet alone in a car, even with the windows down. A sunny day can turn a metal car into an oven fairly quickly. Your car can reach 120 degrees Fahrenheit in minutes, even if the weather is reasonable on the outside.\n\n#   Even if you park in shade, don't assume it will stay that way. Remember the earth rotates, so what was shady an hour ago is now sun-beaten.\n\n#   Bring plenty of water, at least a gallon each for both you and your pet. Don't forget the water dish.\n\n#   Don't force your animal to run around after a meal in hot, humid weather. Stick to early morning or evening workout sessions.\n\n#   Don't tie your dog up in the sun or make him stand on the street in hot weather. Keep mid-day walks to a minimum. Dogs perspire through their foot pads, so the longer he is on the hot pavement, the less able he is to cool down. And remember, he's much closer to the hot asphalt than you are.\n\n#   Don't take your pet to the beach unless you can find a cool spot for him. Make sure to rinse any saltwater off too. Again, the hot sand affects his ability to cool down to a greater extent than you.\n\n#   Make sure your pet has a place to hang out when outside. A good doghouse works nice but it's best to bring a dog, or any other animal, into the house and out of the sun.\n\n#   Always give your pet clean, fresh water. Don't forget to check the dish to make sure it's not empty. When replacing water, use cool water.\n\n#   Keep old and overweight animals out of the heat. Snub-nosed dogs, especially bulldogs and Pekingese, and those with heart or lung disease, should be kept indoors in air-conditioning as much as possible.\n\n\n\nWhen It Gets Really Bad\n\nAccording to Debra Primovic, DVM, of the Animal Emergency Clinic in St. Louis, "Heat stroke (hyperthermia - as opposed to hypothermia, which is from being too cold) is a condition arising from extremely high body temperature (rectal temperature of 105 to 110 degrees Fahrenheit), which leads to nervous system abnormalities (such as lethargy, weakness, collapse, seizure or coma)." Don't let this happen to your pet.\nWatch For These Signs\n\n#   Noisy breathing that may indicate upper airway obstruction\n#   Excessive panting\n#   Bright red mucous membranes (e.g. gums, conjunctiva of the eyes)\n#   Weakness\n#   Collapse\n#   Seizure\n#   Coma\n#   High body temperature\n\nIf You See These Signs\n\n#   Place a cool, wet towel over your pet or put your pet in a cool water bath. Do not use ice because it may hurt his skin.\n\n#   Check your pet's temperature rectally. Normal body temperature in dogs and cats is higher than in humans (100.5 to 102.5 F as compared to 98.6 F).\n\n#   If your pet's temperature is over 105 F, call your veterinarian and get him out of the heat ASAP.\n\n#   Bring your pet to a veterinarian or emergency clinic as soon as possible.

Should the USA resort to a full scale use of production of Nuclear energy for domestic consumption??

No it shouldn't and yes it is!\n\nThere are too many nuke plants now. The monies that would be used to build new power plants should instead be used to create lower energy consumption goods (made in the USA) and to aid in making homes and small businesses more energy efficient. The money can also be used to work an ad campaign to teach people about our limited resources and how they can do their part in protecting them. If young people are educated about this very important issue while in school and during the ENTIRE time they are growing up, the next generation will be enlightened and help spread the earth conscious news. \n\nAmericans get accused of being fat, lazy and consumptions. Re-educate to kill this stereo type. Unfortunately by the statistics on obesity, this just might be "generally" right.

how can I improve my taekwondo without a coach?

1. Learn as much as you can from a good coach before you leave him/her. Put the lessons down to paper or on video for review.\n2. Practice every day, even if you don't have a lot of time. Stretch, stretch, and stretch.\n3. Join a gym with boxing studios or buy and install a heavy bag. Use it.\n4. Find a sparring partner. Better yet, find several sparring partnets. Kick and punch as much as you can every chance you get. Do wear protective gear.\n5. Books are all about theory. If you don't know how you can improve your taekwondo without a coach, then you don't need a book just yet. Work on the basics instead. A good foundation will get you very far.

Is there such thing as free will when our very own biology limits us to do whatever we chose?

There is such a thing as free will but it's our conscious that prevents us from doing all we want to do.  One’s own conscious is one’s free will.  You will only do what your inner being will allow you to do!


How did our country become so "PC" that we can actually rename baby murder and call it pro-choice?

You answered your own question, pro-choice sounds so good and nice. Who doesn't like choices? Pro-life has a good ring to it as well.


If I ask a question, how do I know that the response will be valid, reliable and accurate?

When a question is resolved, people rate the best answer chosen no matter it is chosen by asker or voters. You have to rate first though to see the result of others' rating, unless it is your own question.


Should a couple tell each other about all their past relationships and why they did not work?

nO--I think that whatever happened b-4 I came along should stay in the past--that has nothing to do with me...unles they wanted to share but  I wouldn't be asking--and what I did in the past shouldn't matter to him..a relationship should begin when 2 people meet eachother and start dating not since the person started dating.


Airsoft is a term used interchangeably to refer to one or both of the following subjects:\n\nA game in which players participate in the simulation of military or law enforcement combat with replica military firearms and military-style tactics \nA replica firearm scaled either 1:1 (or perhaps as a 'mini' or '3/4'). It may be of metal or plastic, and usually fires 6 mm or 8 mm spherical projectiles weighing 110-600 milligrams (known as "BB"s). Propulsion for the projectile is by manually compressed springs, electric motors, or compressed gas including propane (or green gas, which is propane with added oil), air or HFC134a refrigerant. \nThe game is highly popular in several Asian countries, such as Japan, China (including Hong Kong, Taiwan and Macao), South Korea, and, to a certain extent, Philippines, where real arms are difficult or impossible to obtain due to local laws. For this reason, the vast majority of airsoft guns, accessories, and aftermarket upgrade parts are made in these countries. Despite rumours that Airsoft has been made illegal in mainland China, it is actually legal and very popular, both in mainland China and in Hong Kong and Macao as well.\n\nThere is currently a growing interest in the West, especially in the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Germany, Switzerland, France, Spain, Portugal, Finland, Italy, Belgium (where the Dutch players also go, since in the Netherlands it is illegal) and Denmark, bolstered by an active and expanding Internet scene.

it depends on the kind of dance (formal or casual) and the reason for the dance (Halloween, Valentine's etc). If it's a dressy dance, then a nice dress, nothing cinderella-like but something chic. If it's a casual dance, then a pair of hot jeans and a "dressy" top. Above all, choose an outfit that flatters your body type and is of a color that complements your complexion, eyes or hair. Accessories like, shoes, jewelry can also make or break an outfit, so choose wisely.

I want to change my yahoo address, but not get an alternative address.  How do I close this one out?

Why do you want to close it out?\n\nRealistically, Yahoo! Mail has one of the largest data stores anywhere in the world.  (On the order of Petabytes, which is a little less than a million times bigger than your computer's hard drive.)  It's just not cost effective (today) for Yahoo! to try to reclaim space by deleting abandoned accounts.\n\nSo what prevents you from just opening a new, unconnected account? If you ever want this one back, all you need to do is log back in.

So do the United Nations still have a meaningful role in international politics?

Without significant reform it is unlikely to continue with a meaningful existance, but I think most western nations will force this to happen before allowing it to completely dissolve.\n\nAt the end of the day it is a forum to get the nations of the world around a single table. Naturally, it is not possible to drive clear consensus in such situations. So it is difficult to criticize it because of inaction or slowness. I doubt there is a silver bullet to that particular problem.\n\nTo think the UN can resolve major issues facing the world today is niaive. At the end of the day that will fall on the shoulders of the larger nations. What it cannot do is get in the way. It must ensure dialogue is flowing and that diplomatic solutions are pursued to global issues. However once these grind to a halt or fail, it must excuse itself from the proceedings.

what are 4 chemical properties of a marshmallow?

The marshmallows that we buy in our stores are really not the original candy made from a marsh mallow root. The marshmallows we usually eat are mainly sugar puffed up with air, with some flavoring. The constituents of a marshmallow are roughly \n\nsugar (~46%) \ncorn syrup (~30%)\ngelatin (~2%)\nwater (~22%)\n\nIf one heats a marshmallow in the microwave, it will expand as the air expands and the walls of the marshmallow weaken. The gelatin is formed from the kinds of proteins that are used in Jello, often from animal sources. Corn syrup is glucose, a type of sugar produced from corn. This molecule and the other sugars are very interesting chemically:\n\nhttp://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://dwb.unl.edu/Teacher/NSF/C10/C10Links/www.chem.wsu.edu/chem102/102RiboDeox.GIF&imgrefurl=http://dwb.unl.edu/Teacher/NSF/C10/C10Links/www.chem.wsu.edu/chem102/102-GlucStr.html&h=248&w=296&sz=6&tbnid=Tv7cHInyR1QJ:&tbnh=93&tbnw=111&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dglucose%2Bstructure%26hl%3Den%26lr%3D&oi=imagesr&start=3


all locks are in, who will be the most sucessful New head coach?????

This is kind of a cop-out as well, but I gotta go with Brad Childress in Minnesota. I mean, he got a great team, 9-7 clearly the best team other than KC with a new coach. And  the only reason Minnesota canned Tice was really for PR reasons. I think Childress comes in, decides on Brad Johnson for an entire season, the Bears revert to their usual play and suddenly the Vikes win the North and Childress looks like a genius, when in reality he was just in the right place at the right time.

How do atheists swear before they testify in court?

The following is what is said before a person gives testimony:\n\nDo you swear or affirm that the testimony you are about to give is the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth so help you God or under the pains and penalties of perjury?\n\nIt allows for those who do not want to swear (they can affirm), and ensures that the person swearing or affirming is aware of the penalties for lying.

When we ask for an inverse matrix, we want a new matrix that, when multiplied by the given matrix, will give the identity matrix.  To find this matrix, we can proceed as follows:\nWrite down your matrix and write the identity matrix to the right of it.\n|4  -1|   |1   0|\n|3   5|   |0   1|\nNow the objective is to perform operations on the rows of the matrix to get it to look like the identity matrix, while doing the same operations on the nearby identity matrix.  Like so:\nMultiply the top row by 5.\n|20  -5|   |5   0|\n|3    5|   |0   1|\nNow add the rows together and put them on the top row.\n|23  0|   |5   1|\n|3   5|   |0   1|\nNow divide the top row by 23.\n|1   0|   |5/23  1/23|\n|3   5|   |0        1|\nNext, multiply the top row by -3 and add it to the bottom row (combining steps)\n|1   0|   |5/23     1/23|\n|0   5|   |-15/23  20/23|\nFinally, divide the bottom row by 5\n|1   0|   |5/23   1/23|\n|0   1|   |-3/23  4/23|\nLet's test our result.  Multiply the given matrix by our supposed inverse matrix.\n|4   -1|   |5/23   1/23|\n|3    5| x |-3/23  4/23|\nRemember to use matrix multiplication:\n|20/23+3/23   -4/23+4/23|\n|15/23-15/23  3/23+20/23|\nWhich is equal to\n|1   0|\n|0   1|\nThe identity matrix. So your inverse matrix is:\n|5/23   1/23|\n|-3/23  4/23|\nYou're welcome.

does a skin graft hurt ? i have some places on my arms that are spots and some are dark?

I had a large skin graft on the top of my foot. The injury to my foot was very painful...but, i don't think the skingraft was so bad. They took the graft from  my upper thigh...it (the donor site) was pretty itchy till it healed. My foot hurt so bad from the injury it is hard to say if the graft added to that pain. It would also depend on how thick the graft is because sometimes it has to be thicker. Mine was real thick cause the injury to my foot cut off the blood supply and the skin and tissue died and had to be removed. This was a long time ago...and maybe outcomes have improved...but i have a very large scar where they took the skin from and also on my foot.

My husband wants me to take depression pills when I'm not depress, is it ok to take them?

I agree totally with Bella -- what is the husband's problem???  A big factor here, as well, is that if you yourself are questioning doing something that someone wants you to do, then somewhere in the back of your mind, you are not comfortable with this and that is a GOOD sign!  Follow your instincts!  I would ask your husband why he thinks you need to take these pills and does HE understand what is involved in taking medications; their affect on your body, your life?  Ask a doctor!

how do I fax a regular paper document via the internet?

I believe this could be a great strength of the internet, but it's not very well developed yet.  If you have a paper document, then it will have to be converted to an electronic document (i.e. scanned).  Once you're there, you can do two things: send it via a fax modem over the phone line (if you have a fax modem installed), or send it via an internet company that delivers electronic faxes.  You can search for them via Yahoo! or Google, or use a common one like Jfax (www.jfax.com)

What is the meaning of life, the universe and everything?

Darn you.  You sucked me in with your question, then I get here and I see 42 is already taken.  Now we really have to go on a trip and I'm without a towel.  Well ok, let me see what I can come up with, shooting from the hip as it were.  My best guess is that the meaning of life, the universe and everything is "MORE".  The quest for more seems to be at the center of all living creatures.  All organizations be they organic or manmade seem to be trying to get "more".  The universe itself is expanding, so I am told.  As for "everything" anything that should happen to get created instantly becomes part of everything, so even everything seems to crave more.  Yes I think I'll stick with the answer "MORE".  What?  Wait, just a minute, my wife is yelling something from the kitchen...... (long pause).....Hello I'm back again.  My wife says the answer is "LESS"  She says life is always moving toward death which by it's very nature is less life.  The universe is made up of a limited quantity of everything and it is being used up also, so you have less now than in the past, and as for "everything"  Well since everything gets used, you must have less of everything now than there was in the beginning.  So my wife and I will agree to disagree and say that the answer is:\nMore or Less, or possibly More and Less.  I guess that's pretty much the same as 42 because 4 is more and 2 is less.  I'm getting a pain just behind my left eye from all of this thinking.  What!?  Just a minute, my wife is yelling again!........ I'm back.  She said I'd better get off this Yahoo Answers thing and come to the table if I want any dinner.  I told her that I'll never have to come back to Yahoo Answers again because I just pretty much summed up life, the universe and everything.  I'd better hurry if I want more to eat and less yelling.  So long and thanks for all the fishes.

What is the difference between using a router & a switch when sharing a dsl connection at home?

a switch, router and hub are all related but different things.  for our purposes a switch and a hub are the same thing, they facilitate a local-area network by monitoring and organizing the packets going from computer to computer.   many times you can buy a switch with a router built-in.  a router is something that will take an outside broadband connection(such as your DSL) and allow other systems to use it.  for your purposes, a switch doesn't have the ability to interact with your DSL connection, while a router does.\n\nThe popular router/switch combo allows for the easy set up of a LAN as well as easy sharing of said broadband connection.


What exactly does an IPOD do? Should I buy an MP3 player?

I don't know a lot about IPOD's and MP3 players, but I think essentially they're the same thing. IPOD just uses a different formatting that allows you to hold more songs. So basically, the music is just in a different file type. You  might want to check that up though because I'm not sure if that's exactly right.

What happened to most of the disciples after the resurrection of Jesus?

This is a complex question, but all of them continued preaching the gospel and believing in what Jesus had taught them.Thomas,the one who doubted Jesus was forgiven and went on with his teachings, Judas, the one who betrayed Jesus by turning Him over to the Jews, went crazy and hanged himself, Paul went on to preach to all the nations and tribes around Judea and pastored four churches ( read your Bible), the rest kept their faith and continued to preach and teach the remainder of their lives. You need to watch the movie "Passion of the Christ" Keep exploring the Bible.

The Trojan War was a war waged, according to legend, against the city of Troy in Asia Minor by the armies of the Achaeans, following the kidnapping (or elopement) of Helen of Sparta by Paris of Troy. The war is among the most important events in Greek mythology and was narrated in a cycle of epic poems of which only two, the Iliad and the Odyssey of Homer, survive intact. The Iliad describes an episode late in this war, and the Odyssey describes the journey home of one of the Greek leaders, Odysseus. Other parts of the story, and different versions, were elaborated by later Greek poets, and by the Roman poet Virgil in his Aeneid


should a girl make the 1 move  or should a guy make the 1 move?

Usually a guy would make the first move if he's initially attracted to the girl.\n\nIn other cases, a guy would feel he's out of her league, and not even bother, unless she gives him buying signals (smiles, stares, etc).\n\nAlso, a guy wouldn't mind if the girl made the first move. If you're thinking about doing it, try it. The guy would be really flattered.


will Maria Sharapova make it to the top once again? or the competition is too tough..?

I don't think Sharapova will make it to the top for another year or so.  The competition is pretty tough right now.  I mean, you have Davenport, Clijsters, and Mauresmo, all of which have a lot experience under their belt.  I think Davenport will probably remain at the top.  Although Sharapova is very good, I think she has room to get better as she gets older.  But as of now she still has some learning to do about herself and her opponents.  Also she still has her pectoral injury that she has yet to get over.  We all will just have to wait for her to get to the top once again.

Does anyone have back issue of the Sept/Oct 1985 Premier Issue of BH&G Cross Stitch & Country Crafts magazine?

Hi miz_eleanor,\nIf you cant find anyone with a back issue you may try the Goodwill or Salvation Army thrift stores as they have old issues of magazines or try contacting BH&G to see if you can order a back issue. Last but not least try a cross stitch website. Good Luck: Blueladybug

Some advise please for a depressed teen?

Money should not be an object! Ask your school counselor for the names of therapists who can help you for little or no $$$. You might also look into group therapy sessions, as they may be less expensive.


No, not now, I did before all my teeth rotted out, and this big wart grew up on my chin!!!


São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro are the cities with more options for gays.


Yup, maybe if you went with the green one...


how did the term red herring come to be?

The phrase red herring has a number of metaphorical senses that share the general sense of something being a diversion from the original objective:\n\n    * a type of logical fallacy in which one purports to prove one's point by means of irrelevant arguments. See Ignoratio elenchi.\n    * in detective work, mystery fiction, and puzzle-solving, a false clue which leads investigators, readers, or solvers towards an incorrect solution.\n    * in politics, a minor or even phony issue trumped up as being of great importance, in order to influence voters to vote for one party or candidate and against the other, or distract from more important issues that might help the opposing party.\n    * in literature, a plot device intended to distract the reader from a more important event in the plot, usually a twist ending. See also MacGuffin.\n    * in adventure games, an item or object of no practical use; its purpose may be to frustrate the gamer who tries to find the intended use for it. Famous examples are the chainsaw of Maniac Mansion and the actual red herring (although this fish proved useful...) in the original Monkey Island game. Some red herrings exist because some secondary plots or puzzles that existed in drafts were removed from the latest version of the games, but some of the items relevant to those puzzles were forgotten and made their way into the game.\n\nThe phrase is believed to originate from the practice of saving a hunted fox by dragging a red herring across its trail to cause the pursuing hounds to lose the true scent and follow the false trail of herring odour instead.

I have a science novelty shaped like a bulb with vanes inside that spin in the sun.  What is it  called?

I know this as light mill or photon mill. There is a vacuum inside. The vanes are black on one side and metallic on the other side, the metallic side reflecting photons while the black side will absorb it. The pulse exchanged is twice as high on the metallic side of the vanes as on the black side, causing the device to set in motion.
