what is the main job that social workers do ?

Social work has always been subject to competing claims of definition and practice, as social workers, politicians, service users and policy makers have struggled to lay claims on what social work is, and what it might be.\n\nIn 2001, the International Association of Schools of Social Work and the International Federation of Social Work agreed the following definition:\n\nThe social work profession promotes social change, problem-solving in human relationships, and the empowerment and liberation of people to enhance well-being. Utilising theories of human behaviour and social systems, social work intervenes at points where people interact with their environments. Principles of human rights and social justice are fundamental to social work ( IASSW (International Association of Schools of Social Work), 2001).\n\nWhatever the legitimate or validated notion of social work is seen to be, from other perspectives, social work can be seen to be an agent of social control. Far from addressing the inequalities with which we live, it may well play an important role in sustaining or perpetuating the very social and economic system which promotes such inequalities. Rather than liberating, it can be viewed as oppressive and for that reason not true to the core values on which it claims to be based (Jordan and Parkinson, 2001; Jordan, 2004).


What are the eight secrets that every president is told upon entering office?

what are th emost appropriate and well approved tactics for winning a lady?

How you win their affection is how you keep them. If you have to win her with a gimmick, that is the only way you are going to keep her. Sorry, but you need to find out what a woman really wants. This something that unfortunately we often find out too late. Like on our deathbed.\n\nBut, seriously, women want a trusted confidant, a provider, a listener, and a person ready to get his hands dirty doing tasks around the house. Often the best ability is dependability.


It really sucks.  I just watched a report on 60 Minutes about this subject and we are in deep trouble.  They showed a picture of the arctic in 1979 and one just taken six months ago.  It is unbelievable how much ice has melted in just 26 years.  The most noted authority on this catastrophe said that even if we were to stop putting greenhouse gases into our atmosphere, it wouldn't change the fact that our global temperature will still rise.  It probably wouldn't rise quite as fast, but it will still happen because of all the gases we have already emitted.  We can only sove this problem collectively as a human race and not separately as nations.


DO you think it's fair to have to purchase music?

here's a perfect example of why 110 characters is not enough, lol.\n\ni think it's not unreasonable, even if you have already purchased the music, to expect to pay for it again. from the artist's point of view, you are buying two different products.  from yours, you're only buying one performance but paying for it two times.  it depends on whose perspective you are using, and of course you are using yours. unfortunately for you, the record company has the final say. \n\nlet's say you want to paint your bedroom beige.  after finishing the job, you decide no, you like blue better.  would you expect the paint store to not charge you for the blue paint?  after all you already HAD a painted wall.  in the same sense, you already HAVE the music, you are just looking to get it in another form. maybe you feel cheated if you had the cassette long before you thought you'd ever buy the cd.  i think you should pay, but i get the sense from your wording that you don't feel that way.\n\nps::: i sympathize with your inability to return an opened cd.  i had the same thing happen with a software game i purchased...not enough memory in the old compaq to make it run right.  now i know, still p*ssed, but enlightened.

is it good  if you  don't eat  lunch. I trying to lose weight?

Do not skip meals when trying to lose weight. The best way to lose weight is to eat several small meals throughout the day. This speeds up your metabolism and always gives your body enougg "fuel." When you skip meals, your body goes into "hibernation" mode. that is when your body hordes things as fat because it thinks you are hungry. SKIPPING MEALS IS A BAD IDEA! It can actually help you GAIN weight.


What is the big stink over Banana Phones?  My son crazy about it.  What is it?

Kids want what they are told they want.  What's important is that your kids listen more to you than they do to advertisers, which is hard considering most kids get about 2 hours of 'family time' per day while taking in on average, twice that amount of time with their friends, mr. television and mr computer who bombard them with cleverly crafted advertising campaigns using subtle psychological triggers to influence kids, since\n1)  kids' demands of their parents are rarely if ever refused, so the kid becomes a direct conduit into the parents' wallets\n2)  kids grow up to become consumers themselves and if you hook 'em young, it is a lot easier to keep them spending when they are adults.\n\n\nRE:  Fish heads\nI saw you asked about this song.

In chemistry, azo compounds generally have a molecular formula of the form R-N=N-R', in which R and R' can be either aromatic or aliphatic. The N=N group is called an azo or diimide functional group, and the R and R' groups of azo compounds are often aromatic or aliphatic. This helps to stabilise the N=N group by making it part of an extended delocalised system. This also has the effect of making many azo compounds coloured, as delocalised or conjugated systems often absorb visible frequencies of light.\n\nThe name azo comes from azote, an old name of nitrogen that originates in French and is derived from the Greek a (not) + zoe (to live). Aromatic azo compounds (R = R' = aromatic) are usually stable and have vivid colors such as red, orange, and yellow. Therefore, they are used as dyes, which are called azo dyes. Some azo compounds, eg. Methyl orange, can also be used as acid-base indicators, due to their ability to function as weak acids, and the different colours of the acid and salt forms. Azobenzene is another typical aromatic azo compound. Their colour originates from absorbance in the visible region of the spectrum due to the delocalization of electrons in the benzene and azo groups forming a conjugated system


How can i get a 20 yrs old American to marry, ?

Do you believe there are animals out there that are still undiscovered?

No, I don't think we will find a TOTALLY new animal. Sure, people find new species of animals that are already classified. For instance a person could find a new undiscovered spider with unique markings on it's back and a brand new never before seen coloration, but it's still a spider and we know that spiders exist. I don't think people will find an animal that has to be put in a new kingdom, or subkingdom, or phylum (or whatever) unto it's own.

Why is the sky blue, and not for example green or red?

Blue is a short wavelength, shorter than green or red, and our eyes are sensitive to it. The reason the short wavelengths are scattered out of sunlight is because of the size of the nitrogen and oxygen molecules in the air; they are much smaller than the wavelength of light, so they scatter the shortest wavelengths, which are towards the blue end of the spectrum. \n\nOf course, the sky is sometimes green, during a green flash or red, at sunrise or sunset when the red of the sun is reflected from dust and air droplets in the air. \n\nAt sunset, the sunlight has to travel through more air, so more blue gets scattered out, leaving orange, and eventually red light, as more blue gets removed. \n\n(sorta white sunlight)-(blue light gets scattered out)=(yellow sunlight)\n\nAnd as the sun sets:\n\n(sorta white sunlight)-(even more blue light removed)=(orange or red sunlight)

# Large molecules in biological systems namely proteins, nucleic acids, and polysaccharides.\nwww.whatislife.com/glossary.htm\n\n# large single chemical entities such as pieces of DNA or RNA.\nwww.biologylessons.sdsu.edu/classes/lab3/glossary.html\n\n# A macromolecule is a molecule of high relative molecular mass, the structure of which essentially comprises the multiple repetition of units derived, actually or conceptually, from molecules of low relative molecular mass.\nen.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macromolecule\n\nA macromolecule is a molecule with a large molecular mass, but generally the use of the term is restricted to polymers and molecules which structurally include polymers. [1]\n\nMany examples come from biology and in particular biochemistry. These include proteins, starches, lipids and nucleic acids (such as DNA), which are sometimes called "biomacromolecules" or biopolymers. Synthetic examples include plastics. The integral domains of crystals and metals, while composed of very large numbers of atoms joined by molecule-like bonds, are rarely referred to as "macromolecules."\n\nThe term macromolecule is also sometimes used to refer to aggregates of two or more macromolecules held together by intermolecular forces rather than by chemical "bonds". This usage is common in particular when the individual macromolecules involved aggregate or "assemble" spontaneously and rarely exist in isolation. Such an aggregate is more properly called a macromolecular complex. In such a context, individual macromolecules are often referred to as subunits (see e.g. protein subunit).\n\nSubstances that are composed of macromolecules often have unusual physical properties. The properties of liquid crystals and such elastomers as rubber are examples. Although too small to see, individual pieces of DNA in solution can be broken in two simply by suctioning the solution through an ordinary straw. This is not true of smaller molecules. The 1964 edition of Linus Pauling's College Chemistry asserted that DNA in nature is never longer than about 5000 base pairs. This is because biochemists were inadvertently and with perfect consistency breaking their samples into pieces. In fact, the DNA of chromosomes can be tens of millions of base pairs long.\n\nAnother common macromolecular property that does not characterize smaller molecules is the need for assistance in dissolving into solution. Many require salts or particular ions to dissolve in water. Proteins will denature if the solute concentration of their solution is too high or too low.

how to clean epson c20 stylus inkjet printer printerhead using home made  cleaning solutions?

Never use any solution on a print head unless your cleaning the contacts (then you should only use rubbing alchohol).\n\nIf you don't have a removable print head disregard the below...\n\nMost inkjet heads can be placed in a bowl of warm water (if severally clogged) and soak for an hour or so. Then run the nozzles under warm water until they run clear. Then blow off the print head with canned air until it appears dry. The last step takes the longest but, it prevents you from (potentially) frying your printer. Let the print head set in the open air for a day. If you want to chance it you can (at your risk) just make sure that the print head is completely dry.\n\nOh! and make sure that you do not touch the printing nozzles they are extremely delicate and can be damaged by touching them on some printers.

well ask yourself these questions.

What is beyond our univers? It is expanding into nothing? ...It must be something there? Dark force or matter?

This is a common source of confusion. There is a lot about this on the internet and I would direct you to those resources. However it is like we are ants on the surface of an expanding balloon. To ants, living in a 2 dimensional world, they cannot percieve the third dimension that the balloon is expanding into. \n\nThe attached link gives a very detailed, clear and complete discussion about misconceptions about the universe and its expansion. There are many other less difficult explanations available on the internet, however.


The design of an automobile suspension system includes the actions of tires and suspension springs and roll bars which are often optimized to reduce (but not eliminate) the forces that roll a car outward in the opposite direction of a turn.  See the link.\n\nPerhaps it is easier to "see" the effects of turning if you exaggerate them.  The center of mass (or center of gravity) must be above the pavement and it wishes to continue in a straight line ahead as the tires initiate a turn say to the right.  This makes the center of mass lean left.  Imagine that the the car was say 100 feet tall with its center of mass 50 ft above the ground but with the tires only five feet apart.  It would have to lean away from the turn, right?\n\nThis is unlike a bicycle which has only two wheels and where the rider leans into the turn to avoid falling off.  It is also unlike a speedboat where rudder action allows the boat to lean into a turn.  However a navy Destroyer leans away from the turn in a sharp maneuver because the rudder can not overcome the fact that the center of gravity is below the center of buoyancy to avoid capsizing.


how do i find a pseudocode to find the slope and y-intercept of a line?

You don't need much "pseudo code" because the\ncalculation is just an application of "Y = MX + B". \n\nThe slope, M, is just "rise over run" \n\n    (x2-x1) / (y2-y1)\n\nOnce you have that, you can solve the original\nequation for the y intercept, B:\n\n    Y = MX + B\n    Y - MX = B\n\n    B = Y - MX\n\nIn order to avoid the infinity caused by a vertical\nline, your pseudo code should probably check for \ndivision by zero.\n\n\ncompute(float x1, float x2, float y1, float y2)\n{\n    float slope     = (x2-x1)/(y2-y1);\n\n    float intercept = y2 - slope*x2;\n}

Which came first, The chicken or the egg?

In nature, living things evolve through changes in their DNA. In an animal like a chicken, DNA from a male sperm cell and a female ovum meet and combine to form a zygote -- the first cell of a new baby chicken. This first cell divides innumerable times to form all of the cells of the complete animal. In any animal, every cell contains exactly the same DNA, and that DNA comes from the zygote. \n\nChickens evolved from non-chickens through small changes caused by the mixing of male and female DNA or by mutations to the DNA that produced the zygote. These changes and mutations only have an effect at the point where a new zygote is created. That is, two non-chickens mated and the DNA in their new zygote contained the mutation(s) that produced the first true chicken. That one zygote cell divided to produce the first true chicken. \n\nPrior to that first true chicken zygote, there were only non-chickens. The zygote cell is the only place where DNA mutations could produce a new animal, and the zygote cell is housed in the chicken's egg. So, the egg must have come first.

I amm 20 years old and I would like to buy a house of my own within the next year. I make enough money for a?

Start by getting a credit card-a gas card will even work. Just charge a tank of gas or so every month on it and pay it off as soon as you get the bill. This will start helping you to better establish credit. You may want to go ahead and talk to a real estate agent. You don't pay them. All of their fees are paid by the sellers of the house. They can go ahead and tell you what to do to build up your credit and get you pre-approved. Sellers deal more readily with pre-approved people because they don't have to wait as long to finalize the deal. My realtor helped me find a state program that gave me a $2500 down payment assistance loan that had to be paid back at $36 a  month for 7 years. I ended up getting into my house with only $300 out of my pocket if you can believe it!


How did Edmond Berger originate the inventon of spark plugs?

Some historians have reported that Edmond Berger invented an early spark plug on February 2, 1839. However, Edmond Berger did not patent his invention. Spark plugs are used in internal combustion engines and in 1839 these engines were in the early days of experimentation. Therefore, Edmund Berger's spark plug if it did exist would have had to have been very experimental in nature as well or perhaps the date was a mistake. \n\nAccording to Britannica a spark plug or sparking plug is, "a device that fits into the cylinder head of an internal-combustion engine and carries two electrodes separated by an air gap, across which current from a high-tension ignition system discharges, to form a spark for igniting the fuel." \n \nOliver Lodge invented the electric spark ignition (the Lodge Igniter) for the internal combustion engine. Two of his sons developed his ideas and founded the Lodge Plug Company. Oliver Lodge is better known for his pioneering work in radio and was the first man to transmit a message by wireless.  \n\nAlbert Champion \nDuring the early 1900s, France was the dominant manufacturer of spark plugs. Frenchman, Albert Champion was a bicycle and motorcycle racer who immigrated to the United States in 1889 to race. As a sideline, Champion manufactured and sold spark plugs to support himself. In 1904, Champion moved to Flint, Michigan where he started the Champion Ignition Company for the manufacturing of spark plugs. He later lost control of his company and in 1908 started the AC Spark Plug Company

what is a urena fiber explain its characteristics?

Urena fiber occurs as a weed in most tropical countries.  It provides a yellowish-white fiber that is more durable than jute and is used as a substitute in some industries.  It has been grown commercially in Cuba, Madagascar, Nigeria, the Congo and Brazil where it is made into coffee sacks.\nOther malvaceous species that yield fibers but which are of minor importance include Okra, Hibiscus esculentus, Majagua, Hibiscus tiliaceus, and several species of the genus Sida.  Sida acuta is an extremely easy plant to harvest and prepare and the fibers are twice as strong as jute.\nThe Amerindians used the bast fibers of different plant for their bowstrings, nets, etc.  Colorado River Hemp, Sesbania exaltata, was widely used by the western groups, while Indian Hemp, Apocynum cannabinum, and Milkweed, Asclepias syriaca, yielded important fibers for eastern groups of Amerindians.

They did lose to Notre Dame at home. Notre Dame isnt that good. They have also lost too many games to be ranked, they have lost 9.  Beating LSU and Tennessee today was nice, but losing to South Carolina was a game they should have won. They also shouldnt lose at Temple. Temple is not that good. They have played a decent schedule, but their record should be better.


Christians only please...What is your favorite scripture or phrase in the bible and why?

Philippians 4:13--I CAN do all things through Christ who strengthens me.\n\nI first learned this verse as a young Christian.  I was a basket case.  On the verge of a mental breakdown, didn't care what I looked like, believed myself to be stupid and uneducated.  My family had spoken horrible things into my life.  Called me w**re, thief, bad mother, fat & ugly, unwanted by my biological mother (I was adopted).  My then pastor showed me this verse.  Told me to say it every time I felt any of the bad things that had been spoken to me.  I did it.  I figured, what did I have to loose?  Since that time, I have lost over 100 pounds, and now work as a manager of a group home for mentally ill adults.  That which my family deemed for bad, GOD made good with this one verse.  I CAN do all things through Christ who strengthens me.

what is the term when soldiers are allowed to return home. Guess the opposite of deported maybe?

depends.  If stationed somewhere like Korea. you have DEROS (date of estimated return from overseas). then PCS ( permenant change of station). If you were "deployed" to say Iraq or Afghanistan for a mission, when its time to come home. there are several terms that can be used. recalled, withdrawn, redeployed, return to base, going home, back to the real world, charlie mike(completed the mission), I cant recall the official opposite of "deployed", cause we never used it.


Does PETA really have the right to interfere with the pig castration demonstration in rural high schools?

PETA like the ACLU have oversteped their boundries,the more they get away with the more they demand,there will come a time when Peta will dictate what we should eat,hunt,fish,and which animal we should  have for a pet.they're just another group out of touch with the rest of the world

what is an average pay per week in the NBA?

NBA players are paid yearly. The amount varies from contract to contract and depends on how many years is stated in the contract.


Usually around $100 per day or about 10-12 per hour. This also depends on the area where one is working and on the conditions at the time.

Why is there AM radio station choices, when all I can receive is FM channels? Does anyone receive AM clearly?

Am reception all depends on location.  AM signals to not pass well into buildings like FM frequencys do.  Soon Am stations will be switching over to all digital broadcasting.  This will improve the reception of AM stations, making their quality pretty close to FM standards.  If you are having problems picking up AM stations in your area, a good product to look for is the "Select-a-Tenna"  It is a small round disk-like thing you place next to your radio, and it will pull in even distant AM stations(you dont even have to hook it up to the radio, it just sits right next to it)  The AM band is kinda cool to check out... As mentioned, most stations are news/talk, but you can always find some other more obscure types of programming that can't be found anywhere on the FM dial.. SO, Give it a chance, you may just find something you like.

Why do feel girls and boys don't join in Masonic Youth groups?

These groups are not getting the word out to prospective members.  They never volunteer to run booths at the Mall Community Service Days, they never place flags at cemeteries on Memorial Days, they never do fund raising to benefit the poor, they don't visit hospitals.\n\nThey don't put on public dances, or make themselves known in any way.  If they would support the public in very public ways, it would help.  One way would be to get the word out about a TOTALLY FREE way to feed starving people any time of day or night.

Don't you think that Sasha Cohen deserved bronze and Irina Slutskaya deserved silver?

The main difference between x ray and Gamma ray is that X rays originate from the electron transitions in the atom out side the nucleolus. But Gamma rays are emitted from the nucleus. \n\nX ray\nWavelength : 10 - 0.1 Angstroms (1 Angstroms = 10^-10m)\nX rays are high frequency electromagnetic rays which are produced when the electrons are suddenly decelerated - these rays are called bremsstrahlung radiation, or "braking radiation". X-rays are also produced when electrons make transitions between lower atomic energy levels in heavy elements. X-rays produced in this way have definite energies just like other line spectra from atomic electrons. They are called characteristic x-rays since they have energies determined by the atomic energy levels.\n\nWithin a short time of their discovery, they were being used in medical facilities to image broken bones. Also they are used to study the crystal structures.\n\nGamma Ray\nWavelength :  <0.1 Angstroms\nThe term gamma ray is used to denote electromagnetic radiation from the nucleus as a part of a radioactive process. The energy of nuclear radiation is extremely high because such radiation is born in the intense conflict between the nuclear strong force and the electromagnetic force, the two strongest basic forces. The gamma ray photon may in fact be identical to an x-ray, since both are electromagnetic rays; the terms x-ray and gamma rays are statements about origin rather than implying different kinds of radiation. Also they are produced from the positron-electron annihilation in presence of a nucleus.\nUsed in the gamma ray spectrometry.\n\nGamma ray autoradiography etc.\n\ni think your doubt has been clear.

how can i transfer all the email to another email address?

You can't just forward all the emails. You would have to do it one by one. most web based emails will not allow you to export  your emails. Email clients like Outlook Express and Eudora can. Also, if you are using paid emails, and if you're using ur ISP's email software you will be most likely be able to transfer all your emails.

how much thrust does it take to escape earth's gravity?

You need to go from 0 to 11.2 km/s (earths escape velocity) and you need to overcome earths gravitational pull, which is 9.82 N/KG, in order to do so. You are constantly being accelerated downward with one G (9.92 m/s^2). If you would create a force upwards of one G you would hover (0 G). Let´s say you had a rocket engine that could thrust your spaceship upwards with 2 Gs. How long would it take to reach escape velocity? You use the equation t=v/a where v is 11200m/s and a is 9.81m/s^2 and get 1141.7s. You need to accelerate for 19 minutes to reach escape velocity. Would be sweet if you could do that but it is a long time to keep an engine running. Let´s accelerate twice as fast. Put a as 20m/s^2 and you´ll get 560 seconds or 3.3 minutes. \nOK. So now we´re cooking. How much thrust do you need to get this kind of acceleration? It´s another simple equation: F=ma. We have a (20m/s^2). But you also need m that is the mass of the spacecraft. This we can only guess but lets say a tonne (1000 kg). Then it is pushing downwards onto the launch pad with the force of 1 G wich is 9810 N (9.81x1000). We need to overcome this by adding another G to our thrust so a is 3Gs or 29.81m/s^2 (20 + 9.81). Thus we get 29810 N of thrust for 560 seconds to kick that 1 tonne payload into outer space. That´s 40.5 horsepowers to you non-metric folks (go metric already. A pound isn´t alwasy a pound is it? So measuring thrust in pounds isn´t valid). "But wait. Doesn´t that sound a little too sweet? 40.5 hps? My old Dodge can do better than that". That is correct. You also need fuel to make thrust. The fuel adds weight to the spacecraft which means we need more thrust. Whch means the need for more fuel. Also the craft is exposed to alot of drag from the air. More fuel. More weight. The farther you get from earth the less the value of a G gets but the spacecraft uses up fuel which makes up for the amount of force needed for acceleration. And so on. So this little thought experiment can only take us so far but I´ll stop here anyway. Now you got an idea atleast.


This is directly from Wikipedia, as my words would not do Superman's strength justice.\n\n"Super strength: While the exact magnitude of Superman's strength is unknown, it is generally accepted that his strength easily surpasses the capacity to lift 100 tons, but how much more is not known exactly. This is because Superman's strength, like his other powers, has fluctuated over time, with the Man of Steel being at times able to shift a planet from its orbit. One figure for Superman's strength is 800,000 tons (pre-The Death of Superman story arc). In the Elseworlds saga Kingdom Come, the elderly but still brilliant Bruce Wayne makes reference to Superman being able to "split the Earth in two." As mentioned above Superman can possess enough strength to move an entire planet upon attaining enough solar energy from Earth's yellow sun. The newly released series All Star Superman, written by Grant Morrison, has Superman's strength being tested by scientists on a lunar lab after flying through the Sun's corona. The scientist's found that he was able to resist weights up to 200 quintillion tons , tripling his strength from an earlier point and hadn't yet reached an upper limit. However, it was revealed that Superman had stored too much raw solar energy, so much so that it was causing cell death at a rapid rate. Although the All Star imprint may not be strictly canonical, this firmly places him at the top of superhero power levels in virtually any comic book universe."

Louis Pasteur was a French microbiologist and chemist.\nHe is known most famously for his demonstrations supporting the germ theory of disease and his vaccinations, most notably the first vaccine against rabies.\n\n\nPasteur's research also showed that some microorganisms contaminated fermenting beverages. With this established, he invented a process in which liquids such as milk were heated to kill all bacteria and molds already present within them. He and Claude Bernard completed the first test on April 20, 1862. This process was soon afterwards known as pasteurization\n\nIn 1865, two parasitic diseases called pébrine and flacherie were killing great numbers of silkworms. Pasteur worked several years proving it was a microbe attacking silkworm eggs which caused the disease, and that eliminating this microbe within silkworm nurseries would eradicate the disease.\n\nPasteur also discovered anaerobiosis, whereby some microorganisms can develop and live without air or oxygen.


That's an interesting question. But the answer may seem a bit weird at first. I suggest you read the answer carefully.\n\nThe world has invented the number system. \nIn olden days, the arabians and egyptians used numbers from 1 to 9. But the theory of negative numbers came only after a brilliant Indian Mathematician ARYABHATTA devised the number zero as the king of all numbers. Zero is undoutedly the most important and the backbone of maths and the number system.\nThe number system was extended on both sides of zero around the 1800s to 1900s to form nearly more than 100 numbers on each side. With time, the number system has advanced and now we know that its limitless.\nEverything that is made around us has many helping hands. Always remember that my friend. Keeping asking such provoking questions. They will shape you into a good character.

I found this rather unfavorable review (see below), but I have no experience with them myself.


I'm concerned that my 26 year old daughter is being cyberstalked on myspace.b someone she knew in the past.

The first thing that I would do is have her get a restraining order against him. As far the whole cyber thing, it is very hard to stop him from doing that. However, if he is harassing her she can press charges. Since he is only contacting her friends, it would be pretty difficult to convince a judge that she is being harassed. That is the bad news... the good news is a restraining order will make it a crime for him to be near her.

Why do you think rich countries are located up north or down south of the Earth?

Climate may be a factor in the success of a country.  The mid-latitudes tend to have moderate temperatures and well defined growing seasons thus allowing for good agriculture and  livestock conditions.  These provide a reliable food source which can support a larger population.\n\nNorthern and Southern latitudes have very long and cold winters which are not conducive to agriculture although there are some livestock that can handle these conditions (carribou, yaks, etc.)  Converely, the more equatorial latitudes have high temperatures.  Depending on the humidity of the region, this can lead to either desert or jungle conditions.  Deserts are very difficult to grow in due to lack of moisture whereas with jungles, controlling the natural vegetation and keeping it from invading agriculture fields is a near impossible task.  In addition, the tropics have many diseases the thrive in that environment leading to a higher mortality rate.

The impact of the 1966 Chicago Freedom Movement on the decade’s civil rights struggles was as significant as any other campaign of that era. By bringing the freedom struggle to Chicago, where the Democratic Party machine was closely linked to the national party and the White House of President Lyndon Johnson, the movement raised the bar and gave the struggle for equality a national focus.\n\nIt was a time when thousands were on the move. Calling for an end to Jim Crow in public accommodations, they boycotted the city bus system in Montgomery, Alabama. They sat in at lunch counters across the South, demanding service.\n\nNational guardsmen and federal troops were protecting children who were breaking down the walls of segregated schools. Black and white teams of youth had gone south to challenge poll taxes and organize voter registration drives. “Whites Only” signs were being torn down.\n\nPeople from all walks of life were getting involved in the struggle to eliminate the legacies of slavery. Although the struggle took on many forms and covered diverse areas of the South, it came to be called simply the “movement.” To say someone or some organization was “part of the movement” was to say it all.\n\nMade up of many diverse groups, the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC), founded by Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and Rev. Ralph Abernathy in the mid-1950s, sparked the imagination of civil rights supporters everywhere.\n\nAs its prestige grew far beyond its numbers, the SCLC and its leaders became the spark plug that ignited mass protests across the South, bringing the demands of the movement to the attention of the nation as scenes of snarling police dogs flashed on screens television.\n\nKing and Abernathy decided to bring the movement “up south” and the search for a place to begin brought them to Chicago. There they found the ingredients they were seeking: a substantial base of support among both white and Black ministers, a base of Black and white activists, steeled in struggles against racist hiring practices, police brutality and racial discrimination in housing and education.\n\nAs important as any other consideration, the struggle for equality enjoyed the support of important sections of organized labor – Region 4 of the United Auto Workers (UAW) and the Packinghouse Union, both led by African Americans.\n\nIn addition, many individual leaders and rank-and-file activists had long been associated with the civil rights movement. SCLC planners noted that Walter Reuther, the UAW president, walked arm in arm with King at the 1963 March on Washington. King and other SCLC leaders saw these as the essential elements of a successful campaign.\n\nThus was born the Chicago Freedom Movement (CFM), with King and Al Raby, a leader of Chicago’s Coordinating Committee of Community Organizations (CCCO), its co-chairs. CFM activities and policies were determined by an committee made up of representatives of the city’s diverse civil rights organizations.\n\nSCLC dispatched field staff to help lay the groundwork. In the spring of 1966, King, his wife and their children moved into an apartment on the west side of Chicago and the campaign of the summer of 1966, with its demand to end slums, began in earnest.\n\nRichard J. Daley, Chicago’s “shoot -to-kill” mayor, made known his displeasure that “outside troublemakers” were coming to “his” city and told all who would listen there were no slums in Chicago. He also declared that he would not meet with King, thus drawing a line in the sand.\n\nFor those who were to lead the summer campaign, these statements were ominous. The nation and the world were to soon learn what they already knew – that the likes of “Bull” Connor, Lester Maddox and George Wallace had their counterparts in the Richard J. Daleys of Chicago and other northern cities.\n\nDuring the summer of 1966 the movement staged a number of marches in white communities protesting housi

how much education did a medical doctor have inn 1880?

U-M Medical School History\n\nThe University of Michigan Medical School was the first medical school in the U.S. to own and operate its own hospital, among the first major medical schools to admit women and the first major medical school to base its instruction on science. The UM Medical School was also a pioneer in the introduction of the modern medical curriculum and the development of the clinical clerkships as part of medical student education. \n\nIn the late nineteenth century the UM Medical School embarked on a mission to involve students as active participants rather than passive observers in their education, and to teach students how to acquire and interpret information. \n\nThese activities occurred during a period of profound change in medical education. The Medical School had opened its doors in 1850 and charged the first class of medical students $5 a year for two years of education. The curriculum was all lecture, and the second year was a repeat of the first. None of the members in that first class were college graduates, and all were white males. To gain admission, they were required to know some Greek and enough Latin to read and write prescriptions. \n\nIn 1871 the UM Medical School graduated its first woman, Amanda Sanford. Ms. Sanford was admitted on somewhat of a technicality in that the UM regents passed a resolution that year allowing any Michigan resident to enroll at the University; the resolution did not mention, and therefore did not exclude, women and African Americans. In 1873 W. Henry Fitzbutler became the first African American medical student to graduate from the Medical School. Mr. Fitzbutler was the son of a slave. \n\nIn the late 1870s the UM Medical School increased its annual term from six months to nine, and in 1880 a three year curriculum was adopted, laboratory instruction was introduced, and grades were assigned. In 1899 the UM Medical School successfully introduced the clinical clerkship, having succeeded where other medical schools had failed largely because the UM owned its own hospital (privately owned hospitals would not allow medical students to touch their patients).

Monosodium glutamte is a big trigger for migraine headaches and has alot of other side effects to go along with it...blurred vision, fits of rage, brain lesions in children...the list goes one.  Common foods with msg are:  Cheetos, doritos, most chips.  Look in the ingredients before you buy something...you may notice your headaches disappear when you stop eating these things.

The Officials sucked all year, but the better teams can overcome those mistakes.\n\nIn my opinion, the Touchdown was good. (Ball touched the white stripe), the Pass Interference was a close call that could of went either way, and the call on Hasselbeck for an illegal block was horrible.\n\nBut... The Steelers overcame even worse calls in their win over the Colts! \n\nBy the way, it's over a month old now.  Get over it.\n\n(but if you can tell by my user name, I may be a tad biased.)

How can I lose a lot of wieght really fast without using money or starving myself?

giving a little effort would assure you of a really safe and effective weight loss. a low-carb, low fat, high-fiber diet is the best diet. this is a sample menu, about 1200 calories the whole day. you will not spend a lot, and you will not feel hunger.\n\nbreakfast:\n1 pc toast / sliced bread\n1 pc banana or apple\n1 glass of milk\ntea or coffee with low cal sweetener (or sugar)\n\n10 am snack:\n1 banana or apple OR\n10 pcs of berries OR\n1 cup popcorn\n1 glass lemonade or juice\n\nlunch:\nopen sandwich (no bread on top) containing:\n1 slice of smoked ham (about 60 grams)\ntomatoes, lettuce, onion\n1 glass juice/lemonade/tea\n\n4pm snack:\n3 pcs of oreo cookies OR\n1 palmful peanuts OR\nany medium sized fruit\n\ndinner:\n1 100-gram cut of lean meat (if chicken, no skin)\n1 1/2 golfball size serving mashed potato or pasta\nup to 2 cups of green veggies or steamed carrots and peas\ndessert: any medium fruit OR\n1 golfball size of low fat ice cream or sorbet\n1 cup of coffee or tea\n\nyou can do variations of this sample plan. very low cost (not totally no cost of course), and low maintenance. you will not feel any hunger at any time of the day. the best thing is, these foods are definitely available in your own house, probably also the things you eat daily. and you will not deprive yourself so binging and mood swings will be avoided.\n\nthrow in some exercise while you're at it: jogging, weightlifting for muscle development, pilates for flexibility (there are websites that show some basic pilates moves), powerwalking for stamina building. even regular day to day activities help - walking to the bus station, bicycling to the supermarket, mopping the floor, you can even do some jogging in-place while watching TV. remember that a well balanced diet and regular exercise is still the best. not only will you be kept trim, you will also stay healthy.\n\nremember that there are no quick-fix diets and exercises. starving yourself and pushing yourself to extreme exhaustion would only lead to even more dangers, and a higher medical cost. the best way to achieve your goal and to get a healthier body is to incorporate a well balanced diet and enough exercise in your daily life.


songs about evolution?  like "do the evolution" pearl jam?

Yes Pearl Jam had a song on their Yield Album to that effect. It is a very powerful song about the negativity of the way human culture has developed rather the evolution of man. A very cool film clip too which borrows ideas primarily from George Orwells 1984.


“The region involved, a watery triangle bounded roughly by Florida, Bermuda, and Puerto Rico, measures less than a thousand miles on any one side.” \n   . . .So George X. Sand introduced the Triangle to his readers in October 1952 in a short article for Fate magazine, entitled “Sea Mystery at our Back Door.” \n  Sand’s article recounted the latest disappearance (the Sandra in 1950) and went on to discuss some of the other recent baffling mysteries like NC16002, Star Tiger and Star Ariel, aside from \ndevoting most of the article to Flight 19.\n   The Triangle remained a colloquial expression throughout the 1950s, employed by locals when another disappearance or unexplained crash happened. \n   By the early 1960s, it had acquired the name The Deadly Triangle. In his 1962 book, Wings of Mystery, author Dale Titler also devoted pages in Chapter 14— “The Mystery of Flight 19”— to recounting the most recent incidents of disappearances and even began to ponder theories, such as electromagnetic anomalies and the ramifications of Project Magnet. His book would set the temper for Triangle  \ndiscussions thereafter. (Just in April 1962 Allan W. Eckert had written a sensational piece in the American Legion Magazine on Flight 19 ((“The Mystery of the Lost Patrol”)) which introduced some of the most popular but erroneous dialogue purported coming from Flight 19, including lines like the ocean looks strange, all the compasses are going haywire, and that they could not make out any directions, “everything is strange.” This became a may pole for electromagnetic discussions).\n   However, popularity on the subject was beginning to spread beyond the area of the Atlantic seaboard. But the moniker “Deadly Triangle” contained absolutely no geographic reference in it— in other words  “Deadly Triangle” could be anywhere.\n   Then in February 1964 Vincent Gaddis wrote an article for Argosy Magazine. The article was little different from others, though it added a few more recent cases like Marine Sulphur Queen. However, it was his title that finally clinched with the public: “The  Deadly Bermuda Triangle.” Adding “Bermuda” finally materialized the location for everybody, though Gaddis clarified “in and about this area” many have disappeared. \n   In his popular 1965 book Invisible Horizons, Gaddis devoted chapter 13 to  “The Triangle of Death.” The concept of the Bermuda Triangle was spreading rapidly. \n   Ironically, the first book published devoted to the subject was entitled Limbo of the Lost (1969) by John Spencer, in which he proposed the area had no real shape at all and elaborately tried to include the Gulf of Mexico as well as New Jersey. It sold in limited quantities, but was later reproduced in  paperback in the early 1970s and did well. \n   Dozens of magazine and newspaper articles came out in the early ‘70s, each author offering a general shape. Richard Winer proposed “The Devil’s Triangle” and extended it nearly to the Azores near Portugal. Ivan Sanderson was sure it was an oblong shape centered almost entirely north of Bermuda.\n   But no book sold as well as Charles Berlitz’s 1974 bestseller, The Bermuda Triangle. Selling way over 5,000,000 copies in hardback, it became a phenomenon. Berlitz also cautioned about the exact shape, as had the others. But to this day Bermuda Triangle is deferred to for the same reason “Deadly Triangle” failed—there is simply no other name that calls to mind the general area as does Bermuda Triangle. \n\nNo doubt you have wondered about the Bermuda Triangle. It is the greatest \nmodern mystery of our supposedly well understood world: a region of the  Atlantic \nOcean between Bermuda, Miami, Florida, and San Juan, Puerto Rico, where disappearances of ships and planes not only continue but continue to defy explanation.\n\n\nIt was Halloween, 1991. Radar controllers checked and rechecked what they had just seen. The scope was blank in a spot


How do I get involved to protect animals?


You might want to see a doctor to get checked out.  Headaches can be signs of serious conditions.\nPerhaps 90 percent of all headaches are “tension headaches” that result from poor posture and daily stress.  These can usually be alleviated with massage and postural realignment.\nTwo herbs which usually help are Chamomile (which relaxes muscles and soothes tension) and Ginkgo biloba (which tends to improve blood flow and circulation to the brain).  Slippery elm is a natural painkiller.  All can be taken as teas.\nThe most important thing is learning to identify the triggers of the headaches.  Avoiding these triggers is the single best way to prevent headaches.


what is the shape of the word and are there any explanations why?

the world is roughly spherical, (a ball) and the reason for this is because something as big as earth pulls itself toogether so that everything falls to the center of the sphere, if there were a substantially eneven spot on the earth (let's say a huge spike 40 miles high) it would most likely fall down into place. I magine a bunch of rocks that are pulling themselves together one rock sticks to the other you have two rocks keep on going now you have three so on and so on. If you take a bunch of weird shape magnets they'll stick together in the shape of a ball because they'll all want to be as close as possible and the only way to do that is a sphere since every point in the surface to the center will give you the same distance. Same as if you pushed clay from every side with equal force it'd form a ball.\n\nDUDE!!! PICK A BEST ANSWER!!!!

why is it that militaries have a commandant?

In the past, The Marine Corps Commadant would retire from the military, following his stint as Commadant. This hasn't been the case lately.  The last Commadant, General James Jones was offered the job as Supreme Commander of NATO forces, which is a position he still holds.For the first time in US history a Marine Corps General has been assigned the position of Chairman of the joints chief of staff.  His name is General Peter Pace.  The Corps is finally getting the recognition it has earned and truly deserves. The Marine Corps is the only branch of service that has a Commadant, because it is part of the Navy but,the buck stops with the Commadant on matters pertaining to Marines!   Semper Fidelis!

Does keeping a metal spoon in hot coffee help it cool faster?

The metal spoon is a good conductor of heat. It also has a handle that protrudes out, with a fair amount of surface area to radiate heat out, and the spoon will also cool by convection. This definitely will cool the coffee down faster.

Should it be illegal to offend religious characters?

No absolutely not, it shouldn't be illegal to offend anyone.  That's freedom of speech.  I think our dialogue should be civil and sensitive, but in a democracy people disagree and are going to get offended.\n\nIf we can't offend anyone then all of a sudden we're living in a fascist state where the "offended" hold all the power over what the rest of us can say and think.

what  part of the body is operated on in a hernia operation?

Depending on where your hernia is, there are umbilical hernia's, hernia's near the groin. There are many kinds of hernias, but a typical hernia is a tear in the muscle that separates the abdomen from the groin. An abdominal organ pushes through the hole and is felt as a bulge in the groin. When the person lies down, the organ settles back into the abdomen. The repair is to close the hole. After the repair no muscles are seriously affected but you have to be careful of a reoccurrence.\nIf no procedure is done and the organ becomes trapped and cannot return to the abdomen, it is possible that blood flow can be cut off. This can result in a condition called strangulation, a life-threatening emergency. There are many different ways to repair a hernia, sometimes a mesh screen is used. Your best bet is to discuss with your doctor what type of hernia you have and what your options are then you can research what you think is the best procedure for you from there. Good Luck!

Were can I find funny videos rated PG or G?


Absolutely they celebrate it like str8 people. That's because they are people too!\n\nEach relationship is different, and some who take on more traditional roles might follow the usual societal "norms", i.e. the "guy" (the one who tends to be more "masculine" in nature) buys the flowers and candy. But not all gay couples are defined by male and female roles. Some couples both buy gifts and plan special events together. Which is a lot more fun anyway.\n\nIt sounds kinda sexist to me to suggest that only the guy can buy the gifts...

how to keep a new marriage going strong?

Relax and enjoy it.  Remember that a marriage is a lot of hard work, and takes a lot of commitment.  The more you share with each other the greater the reward.  Don't let arguments fester, and don't dwell on all the little things that ultimately aren't that important.  And last of all realize that there is no such thing as a perfect relationship and that over time the intesity of your feelings will fade some but that is normal and not a sign of anything being wrong with your relationship.

Do I have an arrhythmia, nervous system problem?

You mention that you have seen several doctors and had several tests, but have you been to a Electrophysiologist ? This is a cardiologist who only specializes in diseases and disorders relating to arithmia's.While there may be several causes to your symptoms sometimes the only way to find out difinitavly what may be causing these fluxuations in your heart rate are two tests,one is what they simply call a tilt table test.simply put they strap you down to a table (only so you won't fall) and they monitor your vitals laying completly flat and start to tilt the table both forward and backwards (as if they were tipping you up side down)this is often done when your sypmtoms are caused when you go from sitting to standing.this could be caused also by a sudden drop in blood pressure from standing,the other test is is a Electrophysiology (E.P. Study)\nThe procedure involves inserting a catheter – a narrow, flexible tube – attached to electricitymonitoring electrodes, into a blood vessel, often through a site in the groin or neck, and winding the catheter wire up into the heart. The journey from entry point to heart muscle is navigated by images created by a fluoroscope, an x-ray-like machine that provides continuous, “live” images of the catheter and heart muscle. Once the catheter reaches the heart, electrodes at its tip gather data and a variety of electrical measurements are made. These data pinpoint the location of the faulty electrical site. During this “electrical mapping,” the cardiac arrhythmia specialist, an electrophysiologist, may instigate, through pacing (the use of tiny electrical impulses), some of the very arrhythmias that are the crux of the problem. The events are safe, given the range of experts and resources close at hand and are necessary to ensure the precise location of the problematic tissue.\n\nOnce the damaged site or sites are confirmed, the specialist may administer different medications or electrical impulses to determine their ability to halt the arrhythmia and restore normal heart rhythm. Based on this data, as well as information garnered before the study, sometimes the specialist will proceed to place an implantable cardioverter device (ICD) or a pacemaker or will perform radiofrequency ablation. In any case, the information proves useful for diagnosis and treatment.\n\nThroughout the procedure, the patient is sedated but awake and remains still. Patients rarely report pain, more often describing what they feel as discomfort. Some watch the procedure on monitors and occasionally ask questions. Others sleep. The procedure usually takes about two hours. The patient remains still for four to six hours afterward to ensure the entry point incision begins to heal properly. Once mobile again, patients may feel stiff and achy from lying still for hours. \n\nI have several arythmia disorders that i was born with and have been through these tests litterally over 50 times in my life,and while it may sound scary and painful it isn't ,you will receive sedation and pain medicine.Plus the info they can learn from these procedures in some instances can be life saving.Now i'm not saying you may have something life threatning.it may very well be something as simple as anxiety related but if it is bothersome enough that it scares you as much as it seems to i think i would see one of these doctors just to be on the safe side.

Would there be any detrimental effects of me going back in time and reproducing with Mitochondrial Eve?

As a male (I'm presuming), you wouldn't contribute any mitochondria to the offspring. You may potentially add variation into the population which, if detrimental, would be selected out of the population and thus leading to little negative long-term effects. The worst-case scenerio would be that you carry a dangerous recessive allele that gets reintroduced to the population due to consanguineous mating (mild inbreeding), but chances are such an allele would be selected out entirely over many generations.

Why are Americans so prejudices and intolerant of gay people?

For a couple of reasons. Americans fall victim the very human instinct of being afraid of that which they don't understand. If they are not gay, then they don't want gay people around, because they make the "straights" uncomfortable.\n\nAlso, it makes people feel like they belong to something to exclude someone else. That is the root problem in the cases of slavery, sexism, and homophobia.\n\nLastly, Americans resent being told what to do. It's part of our nature. So when people in government make laws FORCING us to accept a certain lifestyle, or laws that PROMOTE one group over another, there is a dangerous backlash in retaliation. \n\nGood question, but be careful not to limit your vision to the faults of America. It isn't just us-and it isn't all of us.\n\nGood Luck!

Go to the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) and Grants.gov - these are two sites created by the federal government to provide transparency and information on grants. But you'd be hard pressed to find any grant that would support individuals.

Women's shelters, friends, AA, family members, church help, etc.\n\nTake her somewhere & tell her it is only because you CARE that you want to help her.\n\nDon't make her feel like you are judging her about drinking but print off some info on the Internet for her about what it does to your liver, your skin, etc. Get her interested in activities with her kids in the evening so she can't drink so much. Just sit down and talk to her, calmly, with a  compassionate heart and all the caring & love in the world. It won't be easy but it is a start. Good luck!

Write each ratio in lowest terms 30:36 56:36 15:18:9?

For us to answer this, it's easy.  For you to understand it, that's a different story.\n\nWhy is 30:36 5:6 in lowest terms?  Because you are dividing both numbers by a greatest common denominator, in this case, it is 6.  So 30/6 = 5 and 36/6 = 6.\n\n56:36's greatest common denominator is 4, so the answer is dervied from 56/4 = 14 and 36/4 = 9, so the answer is 14:9.\n\n15:18:9 requires a common denominator from the group of three.  Therefore, 3 is the greatest common denominator.  So, the answer is 15/3 = 5, 18/3 = 6 and 9/3 = 3 -OR- 5:6:3
