Essentially it is because we are spending more.  We have become an expendible society.  Cars break we buy new a button breaks we buy a new shirt.  We do not make our own clothes now, we barely make our own food things cost more oil cost more, experience costs more.  The middle class has to try to keep up with the other middle class then in a recession it makes them poor and others rich depending on investments.  The goverments tax system also does not support the middle class only the lower income and the high end with exemptions.   There for our government, society, and economy do not support the middle class this has been this way for decades catch the phrase "rich get richer poor get poorer"  as well as the man shipping all our jobs overseas is laughing at the middle class all the way to the bank.  I hope to see our society actually vote a working middle class person in to office of several levels to turn arround the laws and tax breaks to help out the middle class.  I wait for that day.


How does a wiccan choose their pantheon?

I think it's a matter of personal preference. I know many Pagans who don't choose specific deities and others who do. Personally, I worship Bast as my patron Goddess simply because, in most things, she most closely represents my personal beliefs and preferences. That doesn't mean that I haven't asked for assistance from others, or paid them tribute, at different times. I tend to think of the Green Man as my patron God just because it feels right, and I find that a lot of the time you should end up doing what feels right. I don't think it's something you should worry too much about since most Pagans believe that all of the Gods are aspects of the same, and all the Goddesses aspects of the same. For that matter, most Pagans tend to believe that they are all aspects of the same deity and we simply think of a male and female being because it's easier for us to comprehend that way. So do what's right for you. Pick a pantheon, don't pick one, mix pantheons... They'll be there for you regardless.


IS Mr.Bill Gates sharing the fortune- received  a mail UK -REQUIREMENTS?


Atheists have no morals and because there are no spirtual consequences run totally wild... don't they?

Funny! They let you type on the internet in prison? You probably stole the computer and are beating someone up as you type. \n\nI hope you can see my sarcasm as well. I am also an atheist. It is funny that people believe that morals and right and wrong come from a god. I guess Christians believe that people before Jesus came had no morals since they had no religion tell them what to do.\n\nThere's nothing more rewarding than being a happy, hard-working person who pays the rent (no mortgage or family yet!) and is kind to others and loves his friends or family, and does it all without having a god tell me what to do. I did it all on my own. That may sound selfish or self-rightous, but there's nothing more out there to help me.\n\nI read somewhere that only only 5 percent of prisoners are atheists.\n\nWell, I gotta go. The warden wants me to mop the cafeteria and then I have to stamp some liscense plates.


A graphics card is a special processor and a heap of memory.  The special processor usually does matrix math very quickly.  Images on a computer screen are basically a series of small dots (pixels) stuck together to look like something.  When you want to make a particular object on the screen do something like rotate or move around, the pixels need to move accordingly.  The best way to move the pixels is by a set of math called matrix algebra (often taught in linear algebra classes).\n\nSo then there's a big set of memory on it as well.  The memory does two important things.  The first is that it contains the image on the screen in memory.  By changing this memory around, the image on the screen changes.  One way to look at this is that the monitor reads from that part of memory directly.\n\nThe second thing it does it to store textures.  Textures are the graphics that are used to make objects look real.  If you have a cube on the screen, it's just a cube until you put a texture on it to make it look like a carboard box.\n\nConsumer graphics cards generally fall into 3 price ranges: the $50-$70 cards, the $250-$300 cards and the $600+ cards.  The first are just the basics you need to run word processors, web browsers and the like.  The second lets 3d games run prettier and better and the third is generally for graphics professionals or gamers with rich parents.

Who can save Kate Homes' from the cult of Scientology--it's even in her house?!!?

I hope all Christians will pray for everyone sucked into cults like this couple.\n\nPeople involved in cults are taught that if they question anything then they are questionning their loyalty to the group and so just follow the groups line so they are not pushed out.\n\nPeople need friends and acceptance, a sense of belonging somewhere. If there were no problems here, Danny Wallace would not have had such a success with "Join Me", in which he asked people to join him, not knowing what this would mean, and loads of people did.\n\nWider families, friendship groups and the church should be providing this acceptance, so just go out and make friends!

Does California require a chainsaw operator be certified to fall & buck up trees as a volunteer on city land?

All volunteers are "supposed" to be pre-screened and approved for an area.  They usually sign a waiver so that they cannot sue the city or state in the event of an accident.  I don't know about certification, but FROM SOME OF THE WORK I HAVE SEEN IN THE PARKS, I'M GUESSING NO.


What are all the cool websites you know?


I think this is a very important question. Falling in love is an emotional res ponce, not unlike weeping, or laughing, or having a temper tantrum, we are on an emotional high, endorphins are flooding our brains, it's almost like being high or intoxicated.\n\n  But just like any of these other exaggerated emotional res ponces we are incapable of sustaining them forever. As an example, you experience something sad, and you cry.. but you don't cry forever, even if you feel like you will. You become angry and you shout, but you don't shout forever. You become enamored and you fall in love. But your body and mind adjust to this new change and then you are still loving but left with a choice, will you choose to stay with this person or not?\n\n  To change partners simply because you don't feel as if your falling in love anymore is wrong. Long lasting love is a choice. Think of love as a Tree, and falling in love is the planting of the seed. Once the seed is planted it takes years and patience and commitment to guide and nurture the seed into a sapling and then the majestic Oak that we are all looking for.\n\nj.swaney@yahoo.com


A common garden variety TV screen is a Cathode Ray Tube- the screen itself is a phosphor coated glass surface attached to the vacuum bottle and electron gun assembly that makes up the rest of it. In operation the electrons from the gun at the rear of the thing are electromagnetically accelerated to the phosphor screen, and scanned by electromagnetic deflection back and forth over the phosphor, making little dots of light that cumulatively make the "picture"- each dot is a "picture element" or pixel the whole accumulation makes a recognizable image. and if you like I can explain how the thing work in color, too.

Do you want to help support victims of Aids?

Good on you for being there for the people that might not have the strength to be there for themselves. Of course it´s easier to help if the issue of concern is close to you but I do hope that people of "the West" don´t forget about the rest of the world and how much we ca do there. That shit about God´s punishment just make me angry. I´m doing my bit - I´m most probably heading to Africa in a year to help with this issue.

Does covering the mouth while sneezing prevent the spread of germs?

it helps prevent (doesnt completely block) the germs from flying over the entire room or onto other people around you, but do know that if you dont wash your hands right after sneezing you are spreading the germs that are then on your hand.  it is reccomended to sneeze into a tissue or a handkerchief to prevent the spreading of germs.

Which is a higher position area supervisor or project manager?

You'll need to read/ask for job descriptions.  The terms are used differently in different organizations.  To me any title that using "supervisor" is lower than a title with the term "manager", but that's just me.\n\nIt may be the case that the area supervisor, whether senior or not, is more focused on operational parts of the company, whereas the project manager will presumably be focused on projects that come and go, and may cut across different parts of the company.\n\nIf this is the case, the skills required for the supervisor position will be general management, versus project management.

I have been in 4 hockey fights and I'll say this: any spot on your head can be a weak spot because you can't block it.  I have knocked-out and have been KO'ed with a single shot to the chin.  It's hard to put into words - it's not that everything goes black, but now I understand where the phrase "punch drunk" comes from.  I suddenly felt like I was 3 sheets to the wind and couldn't see straight.  But overall the toughest part is holding on to the guy that wants to knock out your chicklets.

looking for a listing of all catholic grade schools, K-8, that includes addresses and name of principal.?

You could go state by state, starting with the Department of Education for each state.  Each state will list the county school districts.  Each county will list their schools, public and private, religious, charter, alternative. etc.  Then, each of those has a website for the school and the principal's name will be on it with the contact info.\n\nIt's a lot of legwork for you.  Maybe you could contact your local Catholic dioceses and see if you can purchase a mailing list.  Even then I doubt anyone has one as comprehensive as what you are seeking.  You might have to compile that yourself.


does harvard have any clubs like soroties?

Harvard does not have a Greek system like other schools do.\n\nThey do have a couple of "sororities", which do have the official Greek letters, but they are not sororities in the traditional sense of the word. They are more like clubs. They do not have houses and no one lives there.\nBut they do attract the same "type" of girls that most sororities do - you know the type...blonde, perky, pretty, etc....\n\nHarvard used to have a couple of fraternities but they no longer exist.\nHarvard does have about ten "Finals Clubs" which are the closest thing Harvard has to fraternities. These are exclusive, all-male clubs which DO have clubhouses. However, no one lives at the clubhouses...they are merely used for hanging out and parties.\nFinals clubs are over 100 years old and it is very expensive to join. Tradtionally, their members were very much WASPS (White Anglo-Saxon Protestants) but that is changing now. About 10% of Harvard males are in finals clubs. They usually have parties on weekends, and if you're a girl you can get in, but if you're a guy, good luck.\nSome people criticize finals clubs for being elitist, old-fashioned, and prone to date rape.

Which goalie do you think will be the best after the world cup? Lehman? or Khan?

I think Iker Casillas will do the best for his team. Spain won't get too far, but they will go as far as he takes them. \n\nCech and Dida are in a bad bit of form, van der Saar is a bit too old, Lehmann has been playing well but not for Germany, and Buffon just came back from injury.\n\nAs far as which goalie will go farther I think it's Buffon because I believe Italy can win it.

What are the most important vaccines to be given in the first year of a baby?

OK, firstly, vaccinations DO NOT cause autism. There is NO scientific evidence to back up this claim. The study which sparked off this whole controvercy was based on 13 children and was NOT a properly controlled study. The whole link is totally coincidental - if a child is going to be diagnosed with autistic spectrum disorder, it will be somewhere between 18 months and 2 years of age. Which is in the few months after the MMR vaccination. But it is NOT caused by the vaccination.\n\nAnyway, in response to your question, it depends where you are in the world. Here in the UK, the recommended vaccination schedule is as follows:\n\n2 months - DTP, Polio, Hib, MenC\n3 months - DTP, Polio, Hib, MenC\n4 months - DTP, Polio, Hib, MenC\n\n12-15 months - MMR\n\nDTP stands for diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis (whooping cough). Hib is agains a bug called haemophilus influenza which causes epiglottitis and meningitis. Men C immunises against a certain form of meningitis. And the MMR is against measles, mumps, and rubella.\n\nAs a health professional I would fully recommend that you have your baby immunised. If you don't, you leave your baby at risk of developing serious illnesses which can cause complications such as deafness, brain damage, and even death.

Are there any things that would prevent a girl from having her first period?

anemia (lack of iron and malnutrition), pregnancy (yes you can get pregnant in your first ovulation), hormones (either hormone therapy or the pill), infections or cysts.\n\nEdit ....\n\nBut this are rare cases, not all women begin their periods at the same age, some begin as late as 18 or 20 years old.\n\nEdit2 \nMenstruation Stopping \n(or Never Starting at Puberty)\nWomen who have had normal periods that stop for 6 months or more are said to have amenorrhea, or the absence of menstruation. This is called secondary amenorrhea. Girls who have not begun to menstruate by the age of 16 have primary amenorrhea. \n\nIn some women, menstruation stops or never starts because their ovaries do not respond properly to the hormones that normally trigger release of an egg. These women cannot ovulate on their own and menstruation is not possible without ovulation. Some women do not produce enough estrogen to ovulate. Other causes of amenorrhea are ovarian cysts and obstructions or other problems in the reproductive tract. \n\nA variety of other factors can cause menstruation to stop, including: \n\nVigorous exercise (sometimes not the only cause—periods should return as the training schedule is reduced) \nObesity \nPoor nutrition (including anorexia) \nDiabetes \nChronic, nonalcoholic liver disease \nAny chronic illness \nTuberculosis \nMedications such as birth control pills, narcotics, major tranquilizers, and cancer chemotherapy drugs \nIn rare cases of primary amenorrhea, there is no opening in the hymen through which blood can flow. About one-third of girls with primary amenorrhea have a genetic disorder or a congenital problem with their reproductive tract.


could i be phsycic cuz  most of the things i predict come true?

No. You're not. No one is psychic. It's a trick. They know different personality types, and from your voice can make an educated guess. No one has ever been scientifically proven to have an ounce of psychic qualities. Ever.\n\nAlso, if you're psychic, can't you predict how to spell psychic?


Creation was created by God. \n\nGod has provided many evidences of His existence. One of these is the testimony of His creations: “The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork” (Psalm 19:1). \nHave you ever looked in awe at the night sky with its millions of stars? Or studied the intricate details of a leaf or flower? Or marveled at the miracle of a tiny new baby? These beautiful and complex creations didn’t come about by chance. They are the creations of God, your Heavenly Father. They can remind you of His existence and of His love for His children. \n\nAn ancient prophet declared: “All things denote there is a God; yea, even the earth . . . and its motion, yea, and also all the planets which move in their regular form do witness that there is a Supreme Creator” (Book of Mormon, Alma 30:44). \n\nIf you want to know HOW God created all of His creations you can read all about it in the Bible. It is in the Old Testament Book of Genesis in chapters one and two.\n\nGod bless you in your search for the truth.

I served in the military under Reagan, Bush Sr., Clinton and W. Bush.

Why do you believe in the Church of Jeses Christ of Latter Day Saints, LDS, Mormons?

Why not, no other gospel or church out there holds the keys to seal and bind families forever. There are so many people out there who think that there is more than this life but no other religion can give you sound doctrine as to what is in store for us when we die. We live clean morale lives following the teachings of Jesus, an applying the Atonement in our lives. The one consensus that I have seen on here is that everyone thinks we're alittle off but they all agree that we are good people who are very family orientated. If you found a religion that made you a better person and gave you hope beyond compare, that explained many of the confusing things that other religions out there teach who wouldn't be led closer to want to find out more about it. This Church answers all the questions that none of the other religions out there can't. I have a peace that comes only from the witness of the Holy Ghost that it is true. I have prayed many times to find deeper meaning and truths and everytime I'm amazed at the feeling within myself of it's truth and completeness, but in order to really understand that you have to want to really find out for yourself.

how did all moons, planets, stars and suns get to be orb shaped?

All, well most physical bodies with substantial mass would be pulled into an orb shape by its own gravity, since all planets started out molten, they were easily molded. And why would gravity pull something into an orb shape? This is because everything is attracted to the body's center and the solid with the biggest volume to surface area ratio is the sphere.

for the reaction A + B -> X, the activation energy for the forward direction equals 85 kJ/mol and the?

i.e. it is easier to go backwards than forwards, so the product has more energy ( i.e. higher up the energy scale / nearer the top/ easier to get to the transition state ).\n\nHeat of reaction = heats of formation of products - reactants = 85 - 80 = +5kJ mol.... endothermic ( makes sense if products contain more energy than reactants )


Are genetically engineered foods destroying our environment? How?

I guess it depends on which food and who you ask...\n\nThey genetically engineered corn to contain a toxin produced by Bacillus thuringensis, as I recall it, and figured that since corn can't cross-breed with any wild plants other than teosinte (believed to be the weed originally domesticated and bred into modern maize), there would be no bugs killed if the bugs didn't eat the corn.  Alas, the gene managed to find its way into weeds outside the cornfield, and was killing off the bugs where they were welcome.  Hence, we could seriously talk of environmental damage caused by the transferral of the BT toxin gene (by whatever means) to the other plants.\n\nConversely, if an genetically engineered crop allowed greater production of usable food from a given area of land, that would allow a greater amount of land to remain un-disturbed, or to remain in a wild state: there would be the potential for less encroachment on the habitats of other creatures, plants, etc.  Thus, there is equally the potential for protecting the environment.\n\nThere is really only one thing that I am totally confident about on this subject: we still have a whale of a lot to learn on the subject of direct genetic manipulation of plants and animals (as opposed to the genetic engineering that's been going on for several millenia, called cross-breeding and the like), and we're certainly going to have a lot of heartbreak and triumph both on the way to having an adequate understanding of this effort.

How do I find out who owns the cell phone number. Caller is making prank calls.?

Call the customer service desk of your cell provider. They may be able to help you or at least stop the calls.\n\nOr try one of those phone number look up services on the internet. The free ones will at least tell you if it's from another cell (with provider) or from a land line. If it is from a cell, call their provider and make a complaint.\n\nAlternatively, you can go to your local police department and file a complaint. Depending on what kinds of calls you are getting, they could end up in court, which would be pretty sweet. This depends heavily on local statues regarding phone harassment and how serious the officer you talk to takes your complaint.


How often a week should a couple who lives together have sex?

As many times as it takes to satisfy the highly sexed half and not abuse the less sexed half. My ex preferred NO SEX the last 3 years of marriage..Where a woman I dated wanted it at least 3 times every SINGLE day.. That really took the fun out of sex..as soon as it became a JOB instead if fun I clocked out


Do you find it hard to share your personal experiences with others on this page?

I find it easy to share personal experiences because I'm an open and friendly person. Plus, I hope that the more people who read and learn from my answers, and are helped by them, the better off the world is. I admit I do some selfish things that only benefit me, but that's not the kind of person I want to be.


what are the advantages and disadvantages of data protection act 1998?

The Data Protection Act 1998 in the UK has caused much confusion.  The sites below discuss the act and how it works.


Are their really free government grants to pay your bills?

Matthew Lesko, the guy in the commercial, makes money by selling his books and by preparing grant applications for people -- even though there is no chance for the grant to be approved because no such grants exist.\n\nFederal grants generally support non-profit organizations, intermediary lending institutions, and state and local governments.\n\nMost of the federal grants are given to specific target groups with specific requirements (e.g. minority business owners involved in transportation related contracts emanating from DOT - Grant#20.905 Disadvantaged Business Enterprises Short Term Lending Program \n\nGrants are also often given to non profit groups or organizations involved in training or other similar activities (grant 59.043 Women's Business Ownership Assistance that are given to those who will create women's business center that will train women entrepreneurs \n\nThere are hardly any grants for individuals - unless you are a Native American living in a reservation camp for example. There are also hardly any grants for starting a business, more so for paying your bills.\n\nNonetheless, you can go to the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) http://www.cfda.gov and Grants.gov http://www.grants.gov - these are two sites created by the federal government to provide transparency and information on grants. Browse through the listings and see if you can find any grant that would support your objectives.\n\nEven if you buy books on "how to get grants" or list that supposedly has information on grants -- all of them are mere rehash of what CFDA has, albeit packaged differently. But still the info is the same - hardly any grants for paying your bills.\n\n\nThe Government has created a portal to help individuals who need benefits because of life events. Visit http://www.govbenefits.gov\n\nUse the drop down button\nDO YOU NEED BENEFITS BECAUSE OF A LIFE EVENT?\nChoose the life situation best applicable to you and then see if you qualify for the available government assistance.


What difference(s) do exist between people in the black race and the whites?

First, race does not exist.  It is a made-up term, originating as pseudo-science in the early 1900's as an excuse to keep the European/American upper class white people in control of most governments.  Studied far closer after WWII, race has been found to be non-existent - the only biological differences between 'colors' are the levels of melanin present in the skin.  Otherwise, there are no biological differences at all.  Our ethnicities and religious beliefs are really what seperates us, the "us" and "them".  Now, there are certain genes that frequent different geographical areas:  for example, sickle-cell anemia gene is far more prevalent within Africans, but as a heterozygote (that is, one parent gives the gene FOR and one 'not FOR') these Africans are protected from malaria!  Amazing what the human body will do, what it will adapt to!


How do you tell a girl who you have a long distance phone relationship, you love her&to get her to understand?

Honesty.\n\nPart of me wants to just say "Do it ~ there's someone in my life that I wish would tell me that."  But on the other hand, I know {and he knows, too} that now isn't the right time.  We're so far apart.  No matter how much you love each other, it will be really difficult to keep a relationship of that sort going when separated.  I'm not saying it's impossible, just difficult, as you know by your relationship as it stands now.. I know it, too.  Friendships themselves aren't easy to build or keep.

Past seasons are on cable, and local affiliates.  But they don't run the show from Monday later in the week like they did some earlier seasons.


The worst plight for a woman is to not respect herself. Throughout fighting for the vote, the suffragettes did not forsee women wanting to be equal with men in every respect. Some thought that if women got the vote, they could end drunkenness. However, women became drunkards themselves. Women are not equal in every way with a man and she needs to learn to respect her differences. Women are different from men for a reason; that's not bad.


What was your first job? and did you like it?

My first job was working at one of the fast food places in the mall's food court.  I was 15 and I loved it.  I worked at lot of places in the mall.  Two food places in the food court and then at a department store.    The best job for me was when I was a waitress.  You went home with cash every time you worked.  And you got to meet alot of people.  It was tough sometimes, but I always had fun.  And the money was good.  Kept me in great shape too.

FOR GIRLS: If you could have unconditional sex with anyone anytime and not be considered a s lut would you?


I have been a cop for 7 years now, I've been married for 6 years......?

It takes dedication to put your life on the line for some one else. Can you put a value on that? Some folks think we are over paid. They think we sit around all day drinking coffee and eating do-nuts and other things. I have retired from law enforcement and have another job now, making twice the money I was. But I enjoyed what I did before because I felt I was helping my community and the children coming up.My kids had a hard time in school because there Dad was a cop. My wife deserved better because I was gone a lot. No police work is not worth what you are paid, but the satisfaction of doing some thing to help some body else is. Maybe we should ask the Question "What does a police officer do for our community and kids?"


If you have to ask, you're not.\n\nI'm really not trying to be rude but if you are smart, you know it. And that's no matter what any educator or IQ test will tell you. Those tests are all very well and good but they're man-made so are inherently flawed.


it depends on outer wear.  with a skirt or loose pants it's good (vaginas like air), but you probably want something between you and things like polyester or tight jeans (consider chafability).

I drive by a mosque everyday to work.  I can't help but think about what's going on in there.?

I know exactly what you mean. There is some sort of Muslim place right next to our supermarket and they have a big iron fence all around it. They put up a flimsey valleyball net but it is just for looks. They do not ever use it, it is to make us think they are just normal folks. That gate is kept closed and locked. It just has the most sinister feeling to it and there are never more thatn a few cars in the parking lot. I know good and well they are plotting and planning in there, and preaching kill all the Americans. They are just SO creepy, the cars sneaking in there at odd hours, the huge ten foot fence and gate, the phoney volleyball court,  wish the FBI would set up a hidden microphone in there. I am right near where the terrorists lived in s. florida and they are still here, still plotting the next attack.\n\nPeople are so naive, just listen to these answers. I have heard and seen the preaching of the Imams and they are openly preaching hate all Americans, kill all Americans, they do not beat around the bush, they are very open and tell everyone who wants to listen they believe that all Americans must die. They stand right up in front of auciences and say it and ask for money to plan the Jihad and they pass a basket and people, women who can't even show their faces, are putting a lot of money in the baskets they pass.\n\nMilitant Islamism is one of the fastest-growing movements in the world today. Like Communism and Nazism, Islamism is a brutal, coercive utopian movement – a politicized and virulent interpretation and implementation of Islam -- bent on nothing less than total world domination. \n\nIn fact, best estimates are that 10-15 percent of Muslims worldwide are of the militant Islamist strain. That means well over 100 million human beings are, to a greater or lesser degree, caught up with what amounts to the world's most dangerous cult.\n\n"America: Haven for terrorists," by renowned terror expert Steven Emerson, provides overwhelming evidence that America's ultra-lax immigration policies have allowed large numbers of known, terroristic radicals to set up shop in the U.S.A. \n\n"America's militant Islamic lobby," by Daniel Pipes, is a disturbing look at the hidden, radical loyalties of some of America's so-called "mainstream" Muslim organizations.\n\nI suggest some of you read up on this subject before you say that they are just nice people like us and we should not judge them.\n\nI AM TELLING YOU ALL THAT I HAVE HEARD AND SEEN AND BEEN TO MOSQUES WHERE THE IMAN IS PREACHING THAT THEY MUST KILL ALL AMERICANS AND PEOPLE ARE NODDING IN AGREEMENT AND GIVING LARGE SUMS OF CASH TO MAKE IT HAPPEN. It happens every day right here in the USA. There may be some muslim places that do not preach this but there are a great many that do it openly. It appears that people are unaware of this here.

What do u knnow in this situation  ?  its the previous night of an important examination... u go to bed..?

You're in deep doodoo either way.\n\nTo make the best of a dire situation, stay up and pull an all-nighter.  I generally don't recommend that, as you can only remember so much as get more tired.  More importantly, your brain will be running on low power once you actually take the exam.  My experiences with all-nighters are generally not good.\n\nSince you didn't study at all, the benefits of an all-nighter out weigh the costs.  Sure, you won't remember as much or function as well at the exam, but at least you remember some of the material instead of nothing.\n\nDepending on how much time you have before school (I'm assuming at least 5-6 hours), maybe take a short 2-3 hour nap before getting up and studying with caffeine.  Before you goto school, make sure to eat well and take a shower for wakeup purposes.

What are some techniques for motivating people on a team project?

Allocating responsibility is usually a good motivator. That way they have to work for both themselves and the group's success. If you just take all the duites for yourself, that's when they'll be slackers.\n\nAs far as bosses, they'd rather see you take charge than chicken out and avoid blame. Just go for it.

Hey .. Dont think like that .3 yrs are not  at all a long time .In fact he will be happy ..U had contacted him ..He will value ur friendship :) .. Keep posting if  u got some reply ;)


You are attempting to find the diagonal of a square with 5 on a side. The answer is obviously 5*√(2). C, the hypotenuse of a right triangle, is the longest side of the said triangle. Therefore, C must be larger than 5 in your particular problem. Hence, the first two answers are incorrect.\n\nExample:\nIn general, a square with sides of length x has a diagonal of length x*√(2).\n\na^2 + b^2 = c^2\nx^2 + x^2 = c^2\n2*x^2 = c^2\n√(2*x^2) = √(c^2)\n√(x^2)*√(2) = c\nx*√(2) = c\n\nIf x = 5, then c = 5*√(2).

Very good start.\nI think you should have a standard template for your site and then follow the same template standard for the rest of your site.  That will make it look more professional. \nBy the way, are you hosting your website on a stand-alone dedicated server or is it on a regular hosting company?  I hope you know when the forum grows, you'll need to give lots of tech support to your member else you'll lose them.


What are the domestic and industrial uses of Sodium Hydrogen Carbonate (NaHCO3)?

sodium bicarbonate is a neutral, non-corrosive, non-irritant, non-toxic and easy-to-handle product, which can be applied in a wide range of operating conditions. Storage and transport is not subject to legal regulations.\n\nIt is found both in the chemicals industry and in domestic applications, including food processing, paper sizing, fire extinguisher powders.\n\n4 basic grades are available, depending on the manufacturing process and the severity of the controls:\n\nThanks to its characteristics, sodium bicarbonate may have many functions as :\n\n    * buffer solution\n    * acids neutralisation (sodium bicarbonate used as a base component)\n    * carbon dioxide emission\n    * coating agent for other products particles\n    * abrasive powder\n    * whitening agent\n\nBICAR® TEC, available in different grades, is therefore considered as an essential raw material in numerous industrial and manufacturing activities.\n\nLivestock producers have to adjust their animals’feeds constantly to changing climatic and biological conditions. Carefully balanced feeding is essential to profitability and the quality of the end product.\n\nSodium bicarbonate is a natural buffer and a polyvalent and stable product.\n\nBICAR® Z provides a valuable nontoxic source of unchlorinated sodium, and is incorporated into a wide range of commercial animal feeds\n\n    * to balance their diets\n    * to compensate organism deviations\n    * to meet specific biological and rearing needs\n\nSuitable for :\n\n    * cattle                      \n    * sheep\n    * goats\n    * rabbits\n    * turkey\n    * broilers\n    * laying hens\n    * pigs         \n\nSolvay Sodium Bicarbonate BICAR® FCC conforms to the FOOD CHEMICALS CODEX5th edition and is therefore suitable for a wide range of human food applications.\n\nSodium bicarbonate is mainly use for:\n\n- its leavening characteristics (baking soda)\n\n- the formulation of effervescent drinks\n\nFor example, BICAR® FCC is present in many kinds of biscuits, cakes and sweets. Some sparkling beverages do also contain it.\n\nBICAR® FCC is available in different grades to respond to particular customer’s requests.\n\nAlso in many pharmaceutical and paramedical industries the sodium bicarbonate is employed. BICAR® CODEX is a particular quality especially destined to highly exigent applications as haemodialysis.\n\nBICAR® CODEX is conform to:\n\n- the EUROPEA PHARMACOPOEIA 5th edition\n\n- the FOOD CHEMICALS CODEX 5th edition\n\n- USP 29 edition, hemodialysis application included\n\nBICAR® CODEX is available in different grades to respond to precise customer’s requests.


Who would you vote for president? Hillary Clinton or Condaleezza Rice?

Only an idiot... or a terrorist.... or an enemy of the U.S. would vote for Hillary. In fact, I suspect that a lot of money will be coming in from terrorists organizations for her campaign in case she runs. She is, in my opinion, one of the most evil persons in the U.S.\n\nI do not think Rice is capable but if it was bestween the two, I would run to vote for Rice.

why is povety still so high in the world today.?

There are a number of reasons. The riches are exploiting the poor. In the industries the workers are not getting their remuneration according to the labor they provide there. The rich countries are exploiting the developing counties. Corruption is another reason. The person who has power in hand earns money through corruption and that money belongs to the people of the country. If the money is properly distributed among the people there can not be any poverty in the world.

what is the full description of Vitamin D?

Vitamin D is a fat-soluble hormone precursor that contributes to the maintenance of normal levels of calcium and phosphorus in the bloodstream. It is not precisely correct to describe it as a vitamin, but it might best be described as a conditional vitamin since human skin can manufacture it in some circumstances. It is also known as calciferol.

does anyone know how to get rid of the flabby arm thing?

OK listen.  That area of the arm is the tricep.  The tricep makes up 75% of the upper arm.  Most guys think that working out biceps is the way to big arms, but it is the tricep.\n\nGet a chair or bench, have your legs down in front of you and scoot your butt of the bench or chair until only your arms are holding you up.  Then slowly bend at the elbows and try to touch your butt to the ground.  These are a simple form of "dips".  You can look on the internet for pictures.

For Day Traders: What are some good stocks with high fluxuation that you can make big money on in one day?

Indonesia Fund (IF) has had major intraday gyrations recently but liquidity is bad, at least on odd lots.  I had to wait several minutes for a market order to fill a few days ago.  I have had better luck buying and selling with limit orders.\n\nBallard Power (BLDP) volatility has spiked to an extreme this month.  FCEL, AMSC, and EMKR can generally be counted on to move somewhere every day--I just wish I could figure out which way.  These aren't penny stocks.  The spreads are decent.  I don't trade them enough to comment on liquidity but market orders have always filled right away.

my dear the hurt and pain belong to u and not him and therefore you need to make a decision based on what u feel is best for you. ask yourself if he is worth all the pain you undergo? does he meet your emotional needs or is it just baseless love? choose what it is that works best for you  \nif he did that without telling you what about those things he does behind your back which u don't end up knowing \nthey may be more hurtful than this.\n\nTrust me gal a bad guy is like a disease Keep off early enough to avoid contamination

what is the equation of the formation of nylon 6, 10 from adipoyl chloride and hexamethylene diamine.?

ClOC-(CH2)10-COCl + H2N-CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2-NH2 -------->\nadipoyl chloride         +    hexamethylene diamine\nH2N-(CH2)6-NH(O)C-(CH2)10-CO-NH-(CH2)6-NH(O)C-(CH2)...etc\n\nDifficult to do without drawing, but adipoyl chloride is the acid chloride shown, and hexamethylene diamine is the diamine drawn, the second molecule.  \n\nThe amine has two nucleophilic centres, and the acid chloride, two elextrophilic centres.  These react together to form a long polymeric chain of many repeating units.  There are many forms of Nylon, which are made in the same way using molecules of different chain lengths.  FOr example the first form of Nylon was Nylon 6,6 - made from the same amine as yours, but from an acid chloride containing 4 less methylene (CH2) spacers.  The bonds joining the two molecules together are AMIDE or PEPTIDE bonds.  These are the same bonds which join amino acids together to make proteins, which are formed from DNA.\n\nI hope this helps.

Is it possible that there is already an existing medicine for AIDS that they dont want to release to public?

I would like to hope that medical professionals would release info to the public that would help people. However, I would venture to say it could be a possibility that there is information that could help people with AIDS but medical professionals won't release it. \n Medical professionals have been reluctant to study herbal therapies. Perhaps because there would not be much profit if they were proven to work against diseases or perhaps just having a lackadaisical approach to finding other ways to combat ailments is the reason why they have been reluctant to study alternate therapies.\n Is it possible to reduce viral load with alcohol? Ask any medical professional if a small quantity of alcohol would work in reducing viral load. I say it can.\n Is it possible to use peppermint oil lozenges to slow the immune response so that the killer cells can destroy virus before the virus destroys helper cells? I say it can.\n You are very wise to ask the last question. Is it possible to reduce viral load along with a consistent slowing down of the immune response (without hindering the power of the immune system) and then use a vaccine ( even a non-specific one ) to help rebuild the immune system? Ask the top AIDS researchers if it can work. I say it can work. I believe it could be possible for the bloodstream to have an immunity to the virus although some virus may still be hiding within the body. In essence this could be a cure for AIDS.\n This treatment could be a cheap and effective way to help people .


Did you pagans enjoy your Earth Day? Did you stay fully clothed ?

Yes, thank you.  Though it rained, we had a nice festival by Grand Central Station with bands (live music) and plenty of information and demonstrations about conservation (though I do believe we should drill for oil if we have it available and not worry about  those two toads somewhere), animal rights, energy efficient appliances, and the like.  The EPA was there, of course.  I think the hot dog vendors were very happy despite the vegetarian groups.   It rained on everyone today so everyone stayed dressed.  Oh, I just love the way the salon cuts my hair.  I go about every six weeks.  I also went shopping at the market in GCS and got some fresh ginger root (along with everything else).  I had to cancel the Elton John thingy cause I hadn't eaten since yesterday and was feeling nauseated.  So tonight I'll go have a nice salad somewhere and then out for wine and cheese and music after it.  Happy Earth Day to you, Rev. Trask.  May the goddess smile down upon you.

I'm looking at opening a taxidermy business.?

That three year thing is a horrible myth.  I have been consulting since 1997 and I have never seen a company (properly financed) take longer than 8 months to turn a profit.  Most do it by month 3.  \n\nSorry - anyways.  A semi related cash cow would help.  I have met 2 taxidermist that have used this approach.  One was in Iowa - he made antler chandeleres and the other was in upstate NY - he made knives with bones and sold them to supplement.\nThere is also Jewlery (w/ teeth or claws) and other items you could make in quantity.

This is an automatic response since the caveman time. (seriously) It has to do with the "fight of flight" response that your brain triggers when in danger. When you are being tickled, it is actually percieved as an attack (like from a predator). Your brain then realizes that there is no threat, so that "fight or flight" response is not triggered.


Try seeing a counselor. If you can't then just imagine the people away and don't listen to them. Do you have to take the pills? If you don't try getting off them. Next time you see your doctor ask him why this is happening maybe he'll stop it.

i would like to know where i can find information on the sheriffs office, such as uniforms policy,and duties?

The laws that govern the sheriff can be found in your state charter. responsibilities of the office would be prescribed in the county charter found in the county law library. \nBonds would be a civil matter if you need any at all, Though I doubt it highly. Most public servants cant be covered by insurance for indemnification of acts on duty because of the 1984 suits. You are personally held liable for your actions under color of law. \nLastly your "right to fire" as Sheriff? Fire your weapon or employees (deputies)?\nuse of deadly force can be found in your states statues or penal laws, your right to fire your employees would come under any civil service laws that pertain to the department.


what does a wheelchair symalize in our culture?

if any one is good at the subject computer organization plz help me to find more details about it?

By "computer organization", I'm guessing that you have tons of files spread all over your computer in no particular directory and in no particular order. Start by creating directories off your "My Documents" folder. Then start manually moving the files into their subject designated folders. For instance, if you have .doc files, put all those into a folder called "Doc Files" (for instance), then if you have pictures or image files, create another directory and place those in there, perhaps off your "My Pictures" directory. Once you have all your files organized, which may or may not take a lot of time depending on how many files you have, they'll be easier to find when you need them.


Is selling Blood legal in every country?

Currently, it is not legal in this country. Plasma, yes, but whole blood, no. That is why we have so many blood banks around the country that count on their donors to keep up the supply.\n\nAnd for the benefit of hot sing, as a Mason I served for several years as a chairman of our blood bank. The ONLY income to a non-profit bank is from the sale of whole blood, serums and donations. The expenses are very high.

The stripe on the back of a credit card is a magnetic stripe, often called a magstripe. The magstripe is made up of tiny iron-based magnetic particles in a plastic-like film. Each particle is really a very tiny bar magnet about 20 millionths of an inch long.\n\nThe front of your credit has a lot of numbers. Here is an example of what they might mean.\n\nYour card also has a magstripe on the back and a place for your all-important signature.\n\nThe magstripe can be "written" because the tiny bar magnets can be magnetized in either a north or south pole direction. The magstripe on the back of the card is very similar to a piece of cassette tape fastened to the back of a card. See How Cassette Tapes Work.)\n\nInstead of motors moving the tape so it can be read, your hand provides the motion as you "swipe" a credit card through a reader or insert it in a reader at the gas station pump.\n\nThere are three tracks on the magstripe. Each track is .110-inch wide. The ISO/IEC standard 7811, which is used by banks, specifies:\n\n    * Track one is 210 bits per inch (bpi), and holds 79 six-bit plus parity bit read-only characters.\n    * Track two is 75 bpi, and holds 40 four-bit plus parity bit characters.\n    * Track three is 210 bpi, and holds 107 four-bit plus parity bit characters. \n\nYour credit card typically uses only tracks one and two. Track three is a read/write track (that includes an encrypted PIN, country code, currency units, amount authorized), but its usage is not standardized among banks.\n\nThe information on track one is contained in two formats -- A, which is reserved for proprietary use of the card issuer, and B, which includes the following:\n\n    * Start sentinel -- 1 character\n    * Format code="B" -- 1 character (alpha only)\n    * Primary account number -- up to 19 characters\n    * Separator -- 1 character\n    * Country code -- 3 characters\n    * Name -- 2-26 characters\n    * Separator -- 1 character\n    * Expiration date or separator -- 4 characters or 1 character\n    * Discretionary data -- enough characters to fill out maximum record length (79 characters total)\n    * End sentinel -- 1 character\n    * Longitudinal Redundancy Check (LRC), a form of computed check character -- 1 character \n\nThe format for track two, developed by the banking industry, is as follows:\n\n    * Start sentinel -- 1 character\n    * Primary account number - up to 19 characters\n    * Separator -- 1 character\n    * Country code -- 3 characters\n    * Expiration date or separator -- 4 characters or 1 character\n    * Discretionary data -- enough characters to fill out maximum record length (40 characters total)\n    * LRC -- 1 character \n\n\nThere are three basic methods for determining that your credit card will pay for what you're charging:\n\n    * Merchants with few transactions each month do voice authentication, using a touch tone phone.\n    * Electronic data capture (EDC) magstripe card swipe terminals are becoming more common -- so is having you swipe your own card at the checkout.\n    * Virtual terminal on the Internet \n\nThis is how it works: After you or the cashier swipes your credit card through a reader, the EDC software at the point of sale (POS) terminal dials a stored telephone number via a modem to call an acquirer. An acquirer is an organization that collects credit authentication requests from merchants and provides a payment guarantee to the merchant.\n\nWhen the acquirer company gets the credit card authentication request, it checks the transaction for validity and the record on the magstripe for:\n\n    * Merchant ID\n    * Valid card number\n    * Expiration date\n    * Credit card limit\n    * Card usage \n\nSingle dial-up transactions are processed at 1200-2400 bps, while direct Internet attachment uses much higher speeds via this protocol. In this system, the cardholder enters a personal identification number (PIN), using a keypad.\n\nIf the ATM isn't a


When I had a vasectomy it cost me $250 How much for a reversal , I have little money?

Unlike a vasectomy, most insurance plans do not cover the cost of reversal surgery, which can range from about $5,000 to $13,000. Although this is usually an elective, fee-for-service procedure, there are ways to make this expense more affordable.  http://www.vasectomy.com/ArticleDetail.asp?ArticleId=3&DoctorId=


How do you enter data in an Microsoft Access 2003 version Form in Form View?

The form has to be based on an existing table in order for you to be able to enter data.  You should have a table with the various fields (or columns) ready to go.  You can create a form based on that table, and you can pick which fields will be filled in via the form.\n\nForm view simply refers to the form itself, ready to use, as opposed to Design view, where you're setting up the look of the form (i.e. spacing, size of the boxes, etc.).

What is so pleasurable about oil massages and Hot Wax?

Well Hot Wax, is if you like feeling a little pain...ok...ALOT!  But to some people it is a turn on to feel the wax as it singes the skin. But ways to use it are to let a lit candle drip the melting wax onto the skin, some people like the pain and then have it peeled off and smothered with kisses on the red spot it leaves behind. Or blowing it.\n\nMassage oil can have sensual and therapeutic benefits. The sensual would be the edible oils that can be massaged in and licked, they come in all kinds of flavours, and what is better than having a hot massage and then being licked in all the right places afterwords!\n\nThe therapeutic benefits is in the massage itself, warming the oil and having it massaged into those muscles, a great feeling after a long, hard day at work, plus it makes your skin feel ever so soft!


Why can't catholic priest get married, if god created man to be with women?

Sacred Scripture repeatedly attests to the great value of a celibate life:\n\n[His] disciples said to him, "If that is the case of a man with his wife, it is better not to marry." He answered, "Not all can accept [this] word, but only those to whom that is granted. Some are incapable of marriage because they were born so; some, because they were made so by others; some, because they have renounced marriage for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. Whoever can accept this ought to accept it." Mt 19:10-12.\n\n"So then, the one who marries does well; the one who does not marry will do better." 1 Cor 7:38.\n\nJesus Christ mainfested this in his own life. It is on this fact that the Catholic Church bases her mandate of priestly celibacy as the Catechism clearly states:\n\n"All the ordained ministers of the Latin Church, with the exception of permanent deacons, are normally chosen from among men of faith who live a celibate life and who intend to remain celibate "for the sake of the kingdom of heaven." Called to consecrate themselves with undivided heart to the Lord and to "the affairs of the Lord," they give themselves entirely to God and to men. Celibacy is a sign of this new life to the service of which the Church's minister is consecrated; accepted with a joyous heart celibacy radiantly proclaims the Reign of God." CCC # 1579.


I like your way of thinking.. They would check your credit.. Cuz they believe if your credit is bad.. You'll most likely steal from them. Same with auto insurance..

does doing gym excersise increases blood pressure, what is the normal bp(120/80) is it true?

120/80  is quoted as the 'normal' BP but there is more a healthy range (which changes according to the latest trend). \n\nWhen u do excercise ur BP rises because your heart is trying to get more blood to you tissues and also trying to get rid of the heat produced (it's why u go all red). But over time your resting blood pressure does decrease. But this might be a combination of losing weight and becoming fitter (which leads to a lower heart rate). \n\nSo the answer is really yes it does, while your doing the exercise and a bit after.

Go on e-bay or to a  local junk yard and get one.  3.8 Eaton superchargers are a dime a dozen...  It's not that hard to replace either.


What is the most important baseball statistic? Why?

Depending on the side of the ball you come from... Based on the way things are going?  Payroll  Because you can buy a great team and build a winning tradition.  The team may not win the World Series every year but they will always be in contention.\n\nIf you want real stats from a analitical point on players:\n\nTraditionally, statistics like batting average for batters (the number of hits divided by the number of at bats) and earned run average (approximately the number of runs given up by a pitcher per nine innings) have governed the statistical world of baseball. However, the advent of sabermetrics brought an onslaught of new statistics that better gauge a player's performance and contributions to his team from year to year.\n\nSome sabermetric statistics have entered the mainstream baseball world. Among statistics that do an excellent job of measuring a batter's performance, On-base plus slugging (OPS) is the easiest to calculate. It adds the hitter's on base percentage ([hits + walks + number of times hit by pitches] divided by [number of times at bat + walks + number of times hit by a pitch + number of sacrifice flies]) to his or her slugging percentage (total bases divided by at bats). Some argue that the OPS formula is flawed and that more weight should be shifted towards OBP (on base percentage). Regardless, OPS still stands as the most direct means of evaluating a hitter's performance using readily available statistics.

How do youthful, mature, and old rivers differ?

Traditionally river systems have been classified according to their stage of development as young, mature, or old. The young river is marked by a steepsided valley, steep gradients, and irregularities in the bed; the mature river by a valley with a wide floor and flaring sides, by advanced headward erosion by tributaries, and by a more smoothly graded bed; and the old river by a course graded to base level and running through a peneplain, or broad flat area. The age classification of rivers is diminishing in popularity now that quantitative studies of river behavior are more common.


does "o.k." stand for anything, or is it just the abbreviated form of "okay" and nothing more???

Interesting answers. Did you know that OK is for OLD KINDERHOOK? People before the 19th century did NOT say OKAY, meaning all right. It irks the crap out of me to find the words "Are you okay?" in an historical novel. They don't belong there.


how do you throw a successful curveball in baseball?

there are plenty of ways, the one I use that has been most successful is this:\nstart with a two-seam fastball grip. move your fingers in between the seams. When you come aroudn to throw (starting your throw the way you would normally with a fastball) co-ck (they wouldn't let me write it without the hypehn) your rist inward and snap your fingers so the ball rolls off the top of your index finger.\nDepending on your arm slot you should get a movement either 12-6, 1-7, 2-8, or even 3-9. (those movements are for right handed pitchers, opppsite movement is for left handers)\nSometimes this grip is misconstrued to be a hard slider grip, but with the cock of the wrist a lot fo pressure is taken off the elbow.\nWork with it a lot and it should become a very effective pitch.


Is it more difficult for men and women to prove that they are both sensitive and strong?

Men and women can both be strong and sensative in their own ways. Strength can be physical, mental, emotional, etc... Also, to be "sensative" does not mean to cry durring a movie, or say "ow" when pinched. Sensative, by it's adopted and implied definition, means to be aware of the circumstances and needs of others.\n\nIn reference to strength, men have a natural physical strength. Men also have a natural strength to put certain emotions aside when necessary. With the same respect, a man's physical strength often leads to arrogance and false security. Which, in all truth, is a weakness.\n\nPROVERBS 16:18 Pride [goeth] before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall.\n\nAlso, a man's ability to neglect his emotions often leads to stress and/or irrationality.\n\nIn regard to women, women have a natural strength for bearing children. Women also have a strength of patience.\nHowever, women often confuse patience for procrastination and neglect. Some problems require immediate action, not hesitation.\n\nReferring to sensativity, both men and women show it in different manners. Women tend to talk out their emotions before handling the situation. Men rather deal with the situation before anything else.\n\nThe problem with many, including feminits, is their lack of understanding of the sexes. Men should not try to be feminine:\n\n1 Corinthians 6:\n\n9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,\n10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.\n\n(note the word "effeminate" which means "acting or showing to be feminine against nature")\n\nWomen should not try to be masculine. If Christ only wanted men, He would not have created Eve. In stead, men and women shoul appreciate each other for their God ordained natures. And use the virtues of each other, guided by Christ, to the benefit of all.

relationship between geometric areas and algebraic expressions?

Because area is two-dimensional, algebraic expressions formulating area will also always have two algebraic dimensions.\nFor example:\nArea of circle, Pi x r^2 has dimensions (r x r) (pi being a number),\nArea of triangle, 1/2 x a x b x sinC has dimensions (a x b) (1/2 x sinC being a number).\nAnd so on...

Well, to be fair, I have to say that it depends on the case worker you get. My best friend works for CPS, and is wonderful. Her first goal is to keep a family together and help as much as possible with problems. But even she says she has one co-worker who is overly eager to remove from the home. The other case workers go around behind this woman trying to fix things so that it's best for the family.\n\nBut, at CPS no matter what city, the primary design is to help families in distress. They should be very willing to help solve your friends problem in the home, Depending....on the severity of the abuse. There is some abuse that a child needs removed from immediately, as it is just not safe to be there. That is what the case worker investigates to determine.\n\nBy all means, if you have a friend being abused, have him or her (or you do it) call Children's Protective Services. They will evaluate the situation and do the best possible thing. It is most important that your friend have help, in order to be safe.\nI wish the best of luck to you and your friend. If you need more direction from here, you need to talk to an adult that you can trust. That can be a parent, parents friend, friends parent, school nurse or a teacher, a pastor, anyone that you are comfortable approaching for help. Take care, and God bless!


when a woman masturbates or has sex once how many times will she climax?how many times do most women climax?

Sorry to step into a womans world - but women have told me that they could not climax, or did not have as many in previous relations.  It has to do with the mate you are with and the intimacy, trust, etc., sex is more than just sex most people hop into bed and just do it - wrong!!\n\n- Women can go from 0 to 60 in seconds!!\n  (Blush) - Forgive me but I am not a lose cannon either.


find the value of x in the equation 9-4x=57.?

Step 1: Subtract 9 from both sides to get -4x alone.\n9 - 4x = 57\n9 - 9 - 4x = 57 - 9\n-4x = 48\n\nStep 2: Divide both sides by -4 to get x alone.\n-4x = 48\n-4x/-4 = 48/-4\nx = -12\n\nCheck:\n9 - 4(-12) = 57\n9 + 48 = 57\n57 = 57
