Light, form of electromagnetic radiation similar to radiant heat, radio waves, and X rays. Light consists of extremely fast oscillations of an electromagnetic field in a particular range of frequencies that can be detected by the human eye. Different colour sensations are produced by light vibrating at different frequencies, ranging from about 4 × 1014 vibrations per second for red light to about 7.5 × 1014 vibrations per second for violet light. The visible spectrum of light is usually defined by its wavelength, ranging from the smallest visible wavelength for violet, about 40 millionths of a centimetre (16 millionths of an inch), to 75 millionths of a centimetre (about 30 millionths of an inch) for red. Higher frequencies, corresponding to shorter wavelengths, comprise ultraviolet radiation, and still higher frequencies are associated with X-rays. Lower frequencies, which are at longer wavelengths, are called infrared radiation, and still lower frequencies are characteristic of radio waves. Most light comes from electrons that vibrate at these high frequencies when heated to a high temperature. The higher the temperature, the greater the frequency of vibration and the bluer the light produced.\nLight is emitted from a source in straight lines and spreads out over a larger and larger area as it travels; the light per unit area diminishes as the square of the distance. When light strikes an object, it is either absorbed or reflected; light reflected from a rough surface is scattered in all directions. Some frequencies are reflected more strongly than others, and this gives objects their characteristic colour. White surfaces scatter light of all wavelengths equally, and black surfaces absorb nearly all light. Image-forming reflection, on the other hand, requires a highly polished surface such as that of a mirror.\n\nDefining the nature of light has always been a fundamental problem in physics. The English mathematician and physicist Sir Isaac Newton described light as an emission of particles, and the Dutch astronomer, mathematician, and physicist Christiaan Huygens developed the theory that light travels by a wave motion.\n\nIt is now believed that these two theories are essentially complementary, and the development of quantum theory has led to the recognition that in some experiments light acts like a series of particles and in other experiments it acts like a wave. In those situations in which it travels in wave motion, the wave vibrates at right angles to the direction of travel; therefore light can be polarized in two mutually perpendicular planes (see Optics).\n\nIII  VELOCITY \n\nThe speed of light was first measured in a laboratory experiment by the French physicist Armand Hippolyte Louis Fizeau, although earlier astronomical observations had yielded approximately the right velocity. By the 1970s the speed of light had been measured very precisely as 299,792,458 m/sec (186,282.397 mi/sec) in a vacuum, and could be used to measure large distances by the time it took for a pulse of light or radio waves to reach a target and return. This is the principle of radar and sonar. Accurate knowledge of the speed and the wavelength of light also permits accurate measurement of length. In fact, in 1983 the metre was redefined as the length of the path travelled by light in a vacuum during a time interval of 1/299,792,458 of a second. The velocity of light in air varies slightly with wavelength, averaging about 3 per cent less than in vacuum; the speed in water is about 25 per cent less, and in glass, 33 per cent less.\n\nLight has an important effect on many chemicals. Sunlight, for example, is used by plants to carry out photosynthesis, and the exposure of certain silver-containing chemicals to light causes them to turn dark in the presence of other chemicals, as is the case in photography.


I'm looking for the PUC  website where you can change your electricity co.?

By law, electric power companies are given monopoly control.  By its very nature, electric service is not something you can casually 'change' like you would your long-distance provider.  So unless you exit the public grid completely, you're stuck with Alleghany Power.


Yes. There are a variety of software-based vector emulation programs such as Microsoft's Virtual PC for Mac. However, Intel is currently developing a new hardware-based vector emulation system that will allow you to load Linux, Windows, Mac, and BSD. During the boot sequence, there will be an option as to which operating system you want to boot from. I'm not sure when it will come out, but I would keep an eye out for it if I were you. Hope this information helps.


Are there serious complications related to endotracheal tube removal after surgery. I had a thyroidectomy?

The potential complications associated with general endotracheal anesthesia administration are familiar to most perioperative nurses and other OR personnel. Throughout their professional careers, perioperative nurses can expect to witness and provide assistance with the resolution of a variety of anesthetic complications. This case study provides an account of a patient who experienced a single anesthetic complication that triggered a cascade of related complications and resulted in a resuscitative event.\n\nPerioperative nurses must become familiar with alternative means of airway management and the associated hazards and complications. This case study profiles an incident in which respiratory complications evolved in a predictable fashion after the use of high-frequency jet ventilation, and it delineates the actions instituted to manage the patient's intraoperative care.

Are teenagers these days teachable or unteachable when it comes to learning in school?

Our schools should teach students HOW to learn and study on their own. I was the Valedictorian of my high school, not so much because my teachers were good at teaching me (although they were very kind for sure), but because I learned how to study effectively.\n\nThere is too much information in society today. Schools should focus less on "teaching" (which presupposes that they know everything) and focus more on "empowering students to learn on their own and use their rationality to verify the relevance or validity of information they come across."

What is the best website to download music from?

If you're going to go for "illegal", I would definitely recommend in this order:\n\nMorpheus\nBearShare\nLimewire\n\nBUT, if you are willing to pay what I consider DECENT prices for music, I do recommend RealPlayer's online music store. You can purchase a single track for .99 cents but if you want the whole CD more than often you can buy it for 7.99. \n\nNow here is what I do...\n\nI bought a copy of Morpheus Ultra for use for songs, and I pay for songs/cd's on Real. I usually purchase tracks/Cd's that I like through Real, even though I know most of the money goes to the bloodsuckers at the record companies. I use Morpheus for when it comes to remixes or rare songs that I can't buy on Real. Though I don't feel that P2P is wrong because I usually buy a CD if I like it anyhow, I do feel that even if it's 5 cents the artist should receive something since they signed with a label that was going to milk them in the first place.\n\nAlso, though I don't know what genre you're into when it comes to music, there are certain artists that know it's inevitable that you are going to P2P music files that are theirs. For instance, Green Day... they created a writable CD for you to buy from them off their website, then you burn all of your fave P2P tracks onto it, so they still get a cut of the money. I see that as very fair. \n\nEither way, have fun with the music, it's there for YOU, so enjoy the hell out of it and don't get caught by the Feds because they are sucky when it comes to prosecution.


I honestly have never heard of the swelling before but the discharge is pretty tell-tale. Your choices are: vaginitis, bacterial vaginosis, yeast infection (commonly caused by Candida albicans), trichomoniasis, gonorrhea, or chlamydia. Every woman is different so it is possible that whatever is going on with you is causing swelling that your doctor may not have even seen before and therefore has no basis for comparison. So my advice would definitely be to get a second opinion immediately. This could be something so simple and easily treatable with antibiotics, creams, or ointments. Or it could be something more serious that requires immediate treatment and follow-up. Either way, knowing and doing something about it will save you a lot of grief and worry and will alleviate discomfort and hopefully solve your problem. Remember this if nothing else: No one cares about you more than you. Do whatever it takes to be proactive about your health and never stop questioning and looking for answers to make sure that you're doing all you can to help yourself. Take care!

Our radio doesn't work inside our home but it does work when we go a bit far from our area. why?

Nearby geographical (or other) blockage may be obstructing the radio signal. Things that could block signal are (but not limited to): mountains, hills, trees, houses, walls, etc. Hope this helps. (If it's just one station it may just be distance from the broadcast location.)\n-www.memeluke.tk

Is black the presence of all colors or the absence of all colors?

Technically (and scientifically) black is the absence of all color, whereas white light contains all color within it.  If however, you are blending paints or playdoh, you probably know that "all" the colors put together tend to look brownish-black, and not white.  Therein, I imagine, lies some confusion.\n\nDespite forays into paint and clay blends, the science still holds.

What is the escape velocity of earth in mach?

the escape velocity is around 11 km/sec, or 25000 mph.  this number is computed without considering the effect of air resistance.  \n\nthe mach number is defined as the ratio of an object's speed to the speed of sound.  however the speed of sound changes with altitude, and so therefore the mach number changes with altitude even if the velocity is the same!\n\nhowever if you are launching some kind of projectile from the earth's surface, the muzzle velocity will be the escape velocity and that has a well-defined mach number.  the speed of sound in the atmosphere at the surface of the earth is around 340 m/s.  11 km/s is then around mach 32.

He will never retire... even if he says he is I think he'd go insane if he just flat out said 'that's it! I'm never making music again on principle alone!!!!'  C'mon- after Fight Club, Brad Pitt said he was retiring- that he'd made enough money and didn't want to do films anymore... he wnt like 3 years and couldn't take it anymore- no look at him he's got a movie a year again! And it's true- em and kim are going to get married again- according to them... imagine trying to explain in 10 years to his daughter why he said all those messed-up things about mommy and then remarried her!


Personally, I think you should first get a lawyer and explain of the situation. Amongst the two partners that will start the new business, decide what assets you will split, if the none weight puller will get any of those assets. Let him know in plenty of time that you are thinking of dissolving the current company, giving him time to consider other options. Depending on how much and how long it will take you to pay off the current assets, decide who gets what. If the deadbeat put in a fare share of capital, then its only fair he get a percent of that back. Let him know the company is not meeting its standard set forth that were thought in the beginning.

Holiness in greek literally means to be separated from the world by God.\nIf you read in the bible, surely you have heard Jesus said "For you are not of this world.."\n\nWhen we repent and receive Jesus Christ as our saviour, your sins are washed and your life basically becames a clean slate in the eye of the Father.\nTherefore, you are deemed as holy not out of your personal conduct, but rather the blood of Jesus makes you holy.\n\nIf you are a believer, you becomes holy thru Jesus.\nthat is what i called "Holiness" thru status.\n\nIn 2nd corinthians 7:1-NKJV(I am not going to post it because i want you to go look at your bible)\nNotice that it is said in the end "perfecting holiness in the fear of God."\n\nThe bible did not say "achieving / to become holy in the fear of God" but rather "perfecting holiness."\nIt is just like saying, you are already holy and now, you need to "try" to make it perfect.\n\nthat bring us to the second point:\n\nFrom gaining the status of holiness thru the sacrifice of Jesus, also using the same verse, come the term, which i called, Holiness thru intention.\n\nWhen you are saved, you achieve the status of holiness, but that does not mean you can abandon the work of Jesus by abusing your body, soul, and spirit by doing whatever you want.\nBecause, being christian, or a "follower of Christ", means that you need to keep the holiness in you with the help from the Holy Spirit.\nNotice that the verse says "PERFECTING" meaning that you should have the yearning and desire to be Holy, which is also can be translated as closer with God.\n\nfor God, Himself, is Holy. and He cannot be around things that are unholy.  For we cannot see our God by coming to Him unclean.\n\nGod understands, however, that you are not perfect.\nThat sometimes, even the holiest christian can fail by sinning. Therefore, it requires christians to live under the mercy of God day after day (thru daily repentance and prayer). Christians' attempts in keeping a holy life is appreciated and in fact required by God.\n\nDavid, the person that God favors much, fall into the sin of sexual temptation. But, David, then repents to God.\nAnd David receives God's forgiveness and His favor.\nWe can also learn this point by comparing Peter with Judas\nOne who repented, and one who did not.\n\nThru repenting, we achieve, or rather, perfect our holiness by becoming closer and closer to the image of Christ.\n\nstandard of dress itself cannot be a single measurement of being holy. \nWe cannot say one is holy just because one is wearing white suit.\nor vice versa (unclean association thru black leather jacket, tattoo, chains, etc..)\nBut, thru times, if one truly follows Jesus way of life, one will be separated more and more from one's flesh desire.\n\nthru our daily walk with God, we will be shaped closer and closer to the image of His firstborn.\n\nand, dressing more appropriately out of our love for God  can be the manifestation of being holy (notice that i say manifestation, meaning that it can be one of the sign, not the ultimate standard)\n\nAnd, I believe, Holiness thru intention of perfection is\nwhere we are right now, at least for the living believers.\n\nand the last step will be the ultimate Holiness.\nin Rev 7: 9 -17 NKJV (again please read your bible)\nThat's when the ultimate holiness is presented for us.\nGod himself change us physically and spiritually.\nand, Literally, separate us from the doomed world.

If somebody knows my social security #, and he might use my ss# to apply credit card. how can I protect myself

It is correct, that you need to check your credit report as often as possible.  The government has created a website that you can do just that.  http://www.annualcreditreport.com.  It lists the 3 credit reporting agencies, and you can access your credit report from all 3 for free.  I would recommend only checking with one agency at a time every 4 months, because you can only check your credit report for free with each agency once a year.  Also, if you get a bill in the mail for a credit card or something, I would contact the card company and cancel it, and contact the 3 credit bureaus and have that credit line removed from your report.

Where did the spanish word Almuerzo orginate?

As for old practices, there were 4 meals in latinamerican cultures, DESAYUNO Which is a light meal eaten by the time you wake up, worth to mention that usualy country people still practice them, since they wake up before sunrise, and it's just a pice of sweat bread with a glass of milk or coffe. ALMUERZO is something much hevier for the stomach, A couple of eggs, or Chilaquiles, or a small portion of Meat, this is eaten by mid morning, say around 9 o 10, assuming of course that you woke up very early, then LA COMIDA, wich usualy is taken between 2 and 4 PM with the family gathered around the table, and finaly LA CENA usually taken by 8 or 9 PM wich and may vary from region to region, and of course the amount of food taken\n\nNow in modern days and specialy in cities, Desayuno and Almuerzo had been merged as a single meal but Comida and Cena still remains as a standard.\n\nIf you ment to ask by the origins of the word, I can't tell. sorry. but the word context had been explained sufficently I hope.

What exactly is GTS (Global Titling System) and what is it used for?

Global Transmission Services (GTS) is s new system for transferring radio signals from the International Space Station (ISS). Starting in the year 2000 it will be tested in the framework of a pilot project. GTS is the first experiment on the new space station and at the same time the possibilities of future commercial uses of the space station as a space-born platform will be investigated. The experiment is being supported by Daimler-Chrysler, Fortis Swiss Watches as well as the German Aerospace Center (DLR) and the European Space Agency (ESA).  \nTwo areas of applications will be investigated during the first phase of the experiment: the worldwide synchronization of watches and the deactivation of stolen vehicles.\n   \nThe new system consists of a computer system and a radio transmitter onboard the ISS. The system is controlled by a new ground control center located directly in Stuttgart. The monitoring and processing of the data take place in the control center on Earth. The data are then sent down to Earth from the transmitter in space.   \n\n\nFor additional information such as the advantages and disadvantages of such a system, click the link below and continue the article.

i want to construct a letter of salary adjustment?

Hey Aida, good question, salary adjustment letters for an employee are a simple form to permanently change or a one-time way to change how much someone gets paid.\n\nManagers can use them after a review period to give a raise.\n\nEmployees can use them to request a raise or change.\n\nThere are lots of templates available which you can copy and  personalize. Maybe skills have been upgraded and duties have expanded. \n\nOr maybe a reduction in hours and responsibilities is needed.\n\nTypically like any business letter it should be in block form, not a memorandum, on company letterhead and give the old basics of who what why when and how. And it must be legally signed by the employee and manager.\n\nFor example, who is the employee (name, department, badge number) and manager. Who approved or will approve the adjustment. What the adjustment amount is requested or will be given. Why is it justified, when will it take effect. How the adjustment will be made, and how it will change benefits, contributions to pensions or other savings plans.\n\nHere are some templates below!\n\nGood luck with this project.

What can we do to reduce trade imbalance in the USA?

The first thing to do is to have the US manufacture things.  We have a trade deficit because we import nearly everything that we buy.  Americans have traded quality for quantity.  \n\nIf we raise the price of exports, foreign countries won't buy.  \n\nIf we lower savings, well, we can't lower it from pretty much nothing.\n\nPushing the value of the dollar won't work because that's how we fund our government deficits.\n\nWe can't really raise consumption in the US because that's the same as lowering savings.\n\nWe seem to be okay with buying junky plastic toys from China just so our kids can have a house full of stuff that they never play with and that we throw out after 2 years to make room for more junk.


You'll have to do some searching on the Amazon.com web site, but you can in fact do this via the Amazon Marketplace. They do require a fairly hefty commission (if my memory serves me correctly, it's 50-60%), but your dealing with an item that typically gets a high markup over production costs.\n\nHere's a starting point for you:\n\nhttp://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/subst/misc/sell-your-stuff.html/

They can vote, although they need to register, and demonstrate they have been in the jurisdiction for the right amount of time.  There are many practical difficulties, but in theory they are allowed to.\n\n(They would not have been able to when the country was founded -- only white male property owners were allowed to when the US was founded.  Something to think about when asking what would the founding fathers have done about a given issue.)

Can you answer this question about electrons?

people have this picture in their head of what an atomic electron is like - it's a little ball and it whizzes around the nucleus really fast.  but it's not really like that.  \n\nyou have to divorce from your mind the notion that the electron has a single, fixed, localized position.  instead the electron is "spread out" over space, like a big smear in three dimensions.  a lot of chemistry teachers like to fudge this bit by saying that the electron spends "more time" in areas with higher electron-cloud density, but that's not really correct.  if it were, i could see where your confusion might come from - if it was spending some time on one side of the nucleus, it must spend some time getting back to the other side.\n\nthe truth is, in quantum mechanics an electron is "delocalized".  this means that it has no real, fixed position - instead it is spread out over a region or regions of space, and in fact those regions of space need not be connected.  the electron is quite literally in both places at once, not in one place or the other.\n\nthis is a rather small effect in atomic electrons, but if you consider a conducting metal like copper, the "free electrons" that carry electricity are extremely delocalized.  every single electron is basically spread out over the entire piece of copper.  it's kind of hard to picture, but that's why quantum mechanics is hard.\n\nhope this helps.  feel free to email if you'd like to discussit more.

This is one of the most persistent myths about colds. The only way to catch a cold is by being exposed to a cold virus. Cold air may irritate an existing condition, such as asthma, which would weaken your immunity. This could make your body more receptive to a cold virus, but only if you come in contact with it. If you've caught a cold after getting chilled, it's only coincidence. \n\nI hope this will convince your parents. You can get hypothermia from being cold, but that is about it.

why do guys expect women to be perfect and them to be able to sit back and relax?

Not all men are like that. I'm a weird guy, so I won't make any general statements. But I will say this: when I'm in a relationship, I don't expect to be the recepient of everything and the giver of little.  It's not right. It seems to me that it's emotionally draining (and just plain unfair) to be stuck in a relationship like that. You have to talk to him about your feelings. That way if you know you've tried to work things out. If it can't be resolved maybe some time apart might help. As for your brother...I've no idea.

WHen will marijuana be legal in massachusetts?

HB 2087 proposes rescheduling marijuana under federal law so those states, like Massachusetts, that wish to legalize the medical use of marijuana under state law could do so without federal interference. If approved by Congress, federal prosecution of patients who qualify for medical use under state law would end,and states could actually provide medical marijuana to patients who qualify under state law.

There are almost always job openings at colleges and universities.  Check the job posting bulletin board or ask an administrator in any office like the financial aid office or even the library if there are any job openings.


The thought is there but let me ask you this.\nHave it ever crossed your mind that someone may drive their truck through a red light and side swip you in your car? Yes the thoughts are there but it is important to control that fear. \nPeople join the military because they want to serve their country, they are proud to be an American and want to defend, I'll say it again DEFEND their country so that you and everyone else in this country have freedom. If all American were to act like you we would be under control of a country like Iran, Iraq, Syria, ect.. and ALL of our rights would be taken away and forced to live life as they want us to live.\nSorry my friend that is not want I want. Proud that there are people willing to die for America to ensure that we have freedom.

which computer system is better: Microsoft or Mac ?

Windows has many more security vulnerabilities than the Mac OS. This is not just because Windows has a larger install base; the underlying OS in Mac, FreeBSD, is much harder to hack.\n\nI find the Mac OS user interface far more pleasant to use than Windows as well, but that's a matter of personal preference. As far as software, most business productivity titles are available for both platforms, and the multimedia offerings from Apple, at least at the consumer level, are unparalleled in the Windows world.

If Iran has all that oil, why would they need nuclear capability for electrical power?

Good question, why countries prefer to use oil products instead of coal?\n1. oil isn't ready to use in plants and needs to be refined several times,\n2. Other oil products are really more valuable that let Iran burn its oil in order to make electricity.\n3. Iran will have oil for about 20 years, it is not a long time for a country\n4. Iran is using its maximum speed of oil production right now, no place for extra use\n\nAlso I think you may know that after decomposition of USSR there was a rich black market on military equipment consist of nukes in middle east and iran probably have bought the Uranium it needed.\nAlso blueprints for a nuke was given to iran by CIA so Iran has the nukes right now.\nEdit:\nAbout military presence you must know that Afghanistan is east of Iran, Turkey have been US ally from long ago and US uses its airports for military purposes, US fleet have been in Persian Gulf since 1988 (I think), so still you think US captured Iraq because being near to Iran?\nAnd about Vietnam-like experience, do you know that US had an operation in Iran in 1980 (very funny operation,Iranian was asleep,us troops came, hit each other, burnt themselves,ranaway,Iranian wokeup and saw the mess)? I will give you the link in Sources.\nI must add that Iran is not like Afghanistan(with USSR and then Civil war between Taliban and Iran related groups) which was at war since I remember or Iraq which also was at war since I remember [Iran, Kuwait,US(91),US(92-2002 limited operaions),US(Last attack)]\nA simple economic surround will easily do what you a military attack probably cant.\nAlso I think if I had a nuke I wouldn't put it in a place that missles can hit it. there are cool mobile rocket launcher and Iran have many.

I've seen a 2 years boy playing good on PC, where will this young generation fly... ?

I think there's no limit to how quickly kids will learn to use and master the computer.  I just hope there will be more tools available to help them grow their minds with them, and not just pacify them with games.\n\nWith proper encouragment, kids will be able to more quickly learn essential skills like programming, graphic design and networking skills that will make them the next generation of innovators.  It can also obviously aid them in developing more quickly in whatever other field of interest they may have.\n\nThe obvious challenge is to create software that mimics games while teaching kids important concepts.  Hand/eye coordination isn't enough; they have to start to use their minds in a more critical and creative fashion.  The software that can do that will have really achieved something for them, as well as for the rest of us.

Is there anyway I can see my MS Outlook on line?

If the administrator of a Microsoft Exchange server permits it, the Exchange server may offer a web based version of Outlook. This obviously is only a possibility if your Outlook uses Microsoft Exchange as a server.\n\nIf by this question you mean to ask if you can literally visit the installation of Outlook on your computer from somewhere else, you'd have to poke a hole through your personal firewall, and run something like VNC. I strongly recommend against this - you'd be opening your computer up for hijacking.\n\nIf you feel you have to do this anyway, get the VNC server and client tools: http://www.realvnc.com/\n\nMicrosoft is currently working on a project called "Kahuna" that will make Hotmail look a lot like Outlook.

Strip Clubs: How many times a month is too much?

I think a better question is:  How much money spent at a strip club is too much?\n\nBut to answer your question, I think going to a strip club more than 4-5 times a year is excessive.  Any more frequently and I suspect you're looking for something you're not getting in the "real" world.\n\nI don't think there's anything wrong or perverted with going to strip clubs, but if you're going too much, it's a symptom of some other unrealized want or desire in your life.


How come ice is clear and snow is white if they both are frozen water?

The "white" is caused because snow has a great many tiny interfaces, called "phase boundaries," where air (a gas phase) meets ice (a solid phase). Every time light encounters a phase transition, it is defracted. If you've ever looked at a stick submerged partially, you've seen this--a straight stick will look like it has a bend in it right at the water's surface. Well, with snow, the tiny ice crystals, and the many small bubbles in ice (water is a bent and polar molecule, so when it freezes, it expands, making small bubbles inside), and the places where individual ice crystals begin and end--all of this scatters light all around. This makes it so that a big bunch of snow will look white. If you look at a single snowflake under a microscope, though, you will see that the crystals individally are clear.\n\nWhen it melts, there is only one phase transition, right at the surface. The light is defracted a bit, but only once--it doesn't scatter light all around like snow does.\n\nBut it can! If you've ever seen a big fountain, where the water is splashing and tumbling about, it will also look white due to phase transition. Likewise, if you make a whole bunch of tiny bubbles under water, you can scatter light and make it look white.


enjoy it untill the kids start to cry lol


What is the different between locution and adage ?

Locution is a technical term mostly used by linguists.\n\nYou'll have problems if you try to use your bilingual dictionary all the time.  It's better to use words you know in English instead of just trying to translate a word from your native language to English using a dictionary, because the dictionaries don't always have the best information.  It leads to some very strange English!  I'm an ESL teacher, so I know.\n\nOne trick I use with my second language is I never use a word unless I have read it in a modern article or heard a native speaker use it.

how can I make a girl orgasm during sex?

Pay attention to the "spots" on her body.  It's very psychological as well as physical.  clitoral stimulation while performing is a real good trick.  If that doesn't work then simply ask her.  If you are open enough to have sex then you should be open enough to talk about what the needs and likes and wants are.


anyone know the first "true" president of US? (not George Washington)?

Samuel Huntington of Connecticut was the first true President although he was president under the articles of confederation. george washington is the first president under the constitution.

What's the difference between 'American football' & 'Rugby'?

The biggest difference is that play doesn't ever stop until the ball goes out of bounds or somebody scores.  Players can run forward but have to pass the ball backwards.  There is no blocking allowed.  In rugby union rules, a try is worth 5 points, the kick after is worth 2, and a drop kick, which is legal at any time in play, is worth 3.  The offense essentially can hold on to the ball until they score or the defense takes it away.  There's a ton of other rules differences, but that at least is the skeleton of play.  Also, it's played all over the world, second only to soccer in popularity.

How do you comfort someone at a funeral?

I think one of the most appreciated ways to comfort a grieving person is to tell them how the deceased had touched your life, such as a short story or a character quality about the person. And then close by telling them that you are sorry for their loss and that s/he will be in your thoughts and prayers.\n\nKnowing their loved one was important to others is like salve to a wound.

I love this quote atributed to Emerson.  For me, it sums life up quite nicely:\n\nTo laugh often and much; \nTo win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children;\nTo earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends;\nTo appreciate beauty, to find the best in others;\nTo leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition;\nTo know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived.\nThis is to have succeeded.


If you had a choice of homeschooling online or going to public what would it be and why?

how can i download movies without paying to join clubs?

Hey you can download them from music sites. Kazaa, Kazaa+lite, Ares, Ares Lite, Limewire. All you need to do is do a search for those for the websites.

Good luck!


Stock is ownership in a company. You buy shares of a company. Let's say Company A is worth $30.00 per share. You can buy however many shares at that price. Each day, the value of that share fluctuates (goes up or down).\n\nIdeally, you want to buy the shares at a low (cheap) and sell at a high (expensive).\n\nYou can earn the most money by investing in stocks, compared to bonds and money markets. (You can also lose a lot, so be careful.)

That's a load of BS with absolutely no foundation whatsoever.  Snopes to the rescue:


the hospital question, no there are some prorams availible to help pay or to pay in full if you are really below income levels. unemployment: yes mostly but if you haven't found a job or got called back there is an emergency contingency.the question on poor people, yes we do and it is deplorable and heart wrenching. and for the last question,yes we do there doesn't seem to be much of a middle road. you either have money or you have to struggle with what you have.I hope this info helps

is become a helping verb or the main verb?

It is usually a main verb. I can't think of any cases where it would be secondary or helping.


'Stereotype' is when you take a common group known for a particular characteristic, and labelling all that fall into that group as being the same.\ne.g.  'All men are pigs' is stereotyping men. Just because a lot of guys are pigs doesn't make all of them pigs.\n\nA 'double standard' is a situation where what is good for one group does not seem as good for another group.\ne.g.  When guys sleep around (idiot guys) they are considered studs(by other idiot guys) but when women sleep around, they are considered sluts(again by idiot guys)... but this is what would be considered a double standard.\nWhat's good for the guys is not good for the girls.


How do u decide whether the difference of 2 integers will be posotive, negative, or zero w/o subtracting?

well, you look at the biggest digit, not including the sign.  lets say it is -7-5.  7 would be the biggest.  Then, see if its subtract or add.  This is add.  It has to be negative, since its a -7.  Another example is 7-9.  9 is the biggest, and since its a negative, the answer is a negative. One last one.  -2+9.  9 is the biggest, and since its possitive, the answer is positive.

This is a satellite navigation system used for determining one's precise location and providing a highly accurate time reference almost anywhere on Earth or in Earth orbit. It uses an intermediate circular orbit (ICO) satellite constellation of at least 24 satellites.

is the handwriting of a person in any way similar to that of his/her parents? i mean is there genes involved ?

i tried to find resources online, but didnt find any ^_^.\n\nso i guess i will try to answer it myself for a change ;). \ni think handwriting depends on both genes and the surroundings in which a child is brought up.\nHandwriting is determined by -\n1. length of the fingers\n2. rigidity of the fingerbones\n3. flexibility of the wrist\n\nof these length of the fingers is definitely hereditary to some extent. but it can also be increased by exercises and taking calcium supplements.\nrigidity of fingers is more dependent on how much we exercised our fingers when we were in our formative years. if you remember in kindergarten we used to do claymodelling. that was an exercise to strengthen the bones for a smooth handwriting.\nflexibility of the wrist is also dependent on external factors as it is bones related.\n\nso i guess handwritings are sort of involved with genes but there are more external factors involved as well.

Please do not put a q-tip in your son's ear, it will only cram it in there worse.  You can use peroxide, or they sell earwax remover at the drugstore.  Follow the directions on the box.\nYour son just probably makes excessive earwax as my son does.  Periodically use the stuff on his ears to keep them cleaned out.\n\nBTW, ear candles do not work.  Try burning one without putting it up to your ear.  The same junk is found in it, it comes from the candle.  They're crap.


( FOR CHRISTIANS ) Can you tell me the connection between the Masonic Lodge and Satanism, if any?

Freemasonry has a lot of bad things going on in it.\n\nSome of it is hard to understand.  \n\nThey basically worship Satan as (lucifer) and claim that Satan is the same as Jesus.  They wrongly use Isaiah 14:12, and you need to understand that Satan was never called “lucifer” by Isaiah.  Isaiah the Prophet called that fallen angel, Heylel (said as “hay-lale).  People often take away from the interpretation of the name, Heylel, too.\n\nForemost, the name means, to shine; and has relation to the sun, meaning that Heylel was ORIGINALLY a shining one. Heylel was once a radiant, good angel --- but he fell from grace.  He is no longer radiant, as he once was.\n\nHeylel, means to make a show, to rave and celebrate in rage, to boast, to be clamorous and foolish. This name is descriptive and also means the following: \n\nTo feign or falsify (misrepresent) one’s self\nTo be a counterfeit, a fake, or even a fraud\nTo make believe and pretend\nTo be mad against someone or something (mainly God --- but Satan hates humankind too)\n\nSatan’s name “Heylel” also has meaning of his title ‘The Adversary.”\n\nIsaiah was in NO way saying that Satan was a light bringer… he was saying instead – to Heylel – look!  You have fallen from heaven! ---  He was taunting him…\n\nFreemasons worship Heylel, calling him the light bringer, the light bearer, and the bright morning star.  Satan is a spirit of darkness, not of light!  They confuse Satan with Jesus.\n\nJesus, and him only, is the Light of the World.\n\nFew… high ranking masons will admit to this… but they do this.   Freemasonry also has many “demonic” symbols and rites as well.  It is basically occultism.  (most low ranking masons, maybe unware of this)\n\nNo Christian should be involved in freemasonry… because it denies Jesus… and can cause you to commit a sort of spiritual adultery with false religions.\n\nEdit: (I never said "Freemasonry" was some sort of 'religion' as Islam, so forth.  Freemasonry is 'just' wrong --- it acts occult --- by its practices)  Any practice of the people (world system) can be 'wrong' for Christians to be apart of if it contains 'bad' things.  \n\nPlease listen to the Spirit of the Lord... don't resist the Spirit!  Be careful with any such thing as Freemasonry... test it.

Why is it that everybody who doesn't  agree with everybody else labled a  liberal?

The word "liberal" is being turned into a dirty word by right-wing republican wacko's such as Shawn Hannity, Rush Limbaugh and Michael Regan.  According to them, if someone breaks the law by jaywalking, they are a liberal.\nIf you appear unpatriotic, you are a liberal.\nIf you question the war, they say you are a liberal.\nIf you dissagree with the "republican" president, you are a liberal.\nThose listed above have gone as far as saying that if you as so much question the reasons for invading Iraq, you're not supporting the troops and you should be tried for treason.\nYes, I find it disturbing and so do a lot of other even minded people in America. \nIn spite of their good ratings on radio, Rush Limbaugh, Mitch Albom, Michael Regan and those like them, do not express the majority opinions of Americans.\nRemember, the Jerry Springer Show gets good ratings too.


His eyes and his smile/teeth and lips. I generally like a guy who can look after his general appearance and not look scruffy all the time. A guy who looks good is a guy who takes pride in himself. Other than that I love guys who can teach me something worthwile. Empty vessles never get far with me. There have been some instances where the guy didn't have a nice smile or beautiful eyes but I found myself attracted to him because of his intelligence. A guy who can't take a stand and is too much of a coward to debate with me is not worth my time. It's good to have an opinion about something (even if the opinion is biased or narrow minded, that is how we learn from each other.)


What does Martina Hingis have to do to be in top 10 again?

Although she might make it into the top 10 simply by playing a full tournament schedule, to assure herself that she is competitive of the current top players, she needs to make some adjustments in technique, fitness, and strategy.\nFirst, the technique--both first and second serves need to be improved. Her second serve especially is a liability because the hard hitters can pin her deep with their returns, and Hingis is immediately in a losing defensive position. \nSecond, because she is being pushed around by the hard hitters and is getting few easy points, she needs to be fitter than her opponents. \nThird, in terms of strategy, she will have to find a way to push her opponents out of position. This can be done by hitting harder groundstrokes, or by coming into the net when feasible. Hitting harder leads to more errors; coming in leads to being passed more often. However, I can't see her surviving if she doesn't come up with a way to keep the hard-hitters off balance.\nShe is the only player in women's tennis with such a complete game along with a keen tennis mind, so I am sure that she will determine the best way to beat the hard-hitters.\nI am looking forward to seeing her in more tournaments.

why are gas prices going up ?when crude oil prices are going down?

they are going up here too, I think the oil companies noticed that when it was at it's highest a couple of months ago, people were still buying.

So what exactly is the reason? Here it was 1.85 1st of January now it ie 2.28 and rising steadily.\n\nhow high are we going to let it go up?

Don't throw away a good thing, if that is what you have.


more specifically..in ur intro, u should state ur thesis statement, then state ur three topic sentences that will give ur reader an insight of what u will be talking abt in order to prove ur thesis statement.end ur intro with a conclusion that restates ur thesis statement but mind u-use other words..dont repeat words..\nthen coming to ur first topic sentence (1st paragraph)..give as much proof as possible to show ur thesis statement is right..while giving the evidence, keep relating back to the thesis statement..end the paragraph with a conclusion..use connectives like in addition, altogether etc. so that ur essay seems to be 'flowing'. do the same to ur third paragraph and fourth for ur second and third topic statements...\nnow coming to ur main conclusion..restate the thesis in a another way now..but dont distort what u r intending to say...\nand oh yes, dont forget to write the works u cited to get the proof..\n\nHope I have proved helpful to u!! :)


does anyone know anything about the Bernoulli's effect/principles???

Bernoulli's Principle \nThis is an important principle involving the movement of a fluid through a pressure difference. Suppose a fluid is moving in a horizontal direction and encounters a pressure difference. This pressure difference will result in a net force, which by Newton's 2nd law will cause an acceleration of the fluid.  \n\nBernoulli's principle thus says that a rise (fall) in pressure in a flowing fluid must always be accompanied by a decrease (increase) in the speed, and conversely, if an increase (decrease) in , the speed of the fluid results in a decrease (increase) in the pressure. This is at the heart of a number of everyday phenomena. As a very trivial example, Bernouilli's principle is responsible for the fact that a shower curtain gets ``sucked inwards'' when the water is first turned on. What happens is that the increased water/air velocity inside the curtain (relative to the still air on the other side) causes a pressure drop. The pressure difference between the outside and inside causes a net force on the shower curtain which sucks it inward. A more useful example is provided by the functioning of a perfume bottle: squeezing the bulb over the fluid creates a low pressure area due to the higher speed of the air, which subsequently draws the fluid up.


what was particularly significant about babe ruth's 60 home runs in 1927?

Well, it broke the old home run record, also set by Ruth. It was also more than several entire teams hit that year. There were a lot of things significant about it.


what did you make of last night's LOST episode?  where's michael?

Michael went back to the other shelter, where the tail section was. The trail Jack and them were following wasn't Michael's but something planted by the others to lead Jack into a meeting with them. That's why it ended right where the others were, and that's why it was so clearly going north.\n\nAnd soon we're going to find one of our questions about the show answered with another question! I loved the show last season but it's missing something this season. I can't put my finger on it but it's just not the same.
