Green tea is very effective herbal supplement at improving people’s overall health. Since green tea does not go through fermentation process like red or black tea, it preserves most of its original taste and nutrients. Green tea is packed with antioxidants including vitamins A, B1, B2, B3, C, and E. The tea leaf also boasts the presence of a superstar antioxidant called EGCG which is over 200 times more potent than vitamin E in fighting free radicals and pro-oxidants. The EGCG in green tea extract protects against digestive and respiratory infections, blocks the actions of carcinogens which promote cancer, is anti-bacterial, and also helps lower cholesterol levels.

Smallville is an American television series that debuted in 2001 on The WB Television Network. Created by Alfred Gough and Miles Millar, the series follows the adventures of the young Clark Kent in the town of Smallville before he became Superman\n\nSmallville is filmed at various locales in the Lower Mainland of British Columbia, Canada. The main studio where most of the show is recorded is located in Burnaby, British Columbia. However, scenes on the "main street" of Smallville, as well as the exterior of the Kent Farm, are shot in the town of Cloverdale, British Columbia. Cloverdale is particularly proud of being a filming site for the show; at its entrance is a huge sign which reads "Home to Smallville."\n\nthis will be telecast till such a time you hate this!!


When someone buys a remote island, who knows who it belongs to?

If the island is part of a sovereign nation, then most likely that nation maintains public property records, and the owner has filed a deed of title to the island. The island would simply be one huge "lot" (or multiple lots) of land in the property records.

Buying a sign printing business any advice or cautions if you have experience in this line of business. Thanks

If it is an ongoing business, be sure customer base is spread out, in other words, one customer doesn't account for more than 20% of the total business. Check out the 20/80 part of your business, 80% of the businesss comes from 20% of your customer base. Do you have a non-compete clause in buying contract?\n    Will current owner help get you up and running? Are you an employee now, if yes, will customers come with you when the change is made? Current employees, do they know, and if so, are the ok with change, business is hard enough, without having internal problems right out of the gate!


Does time exist in space?  If so, to what extent?  If you get trapped in a black hole, does time stop?  Why?

Three dimensions define space.  Time is the fourth dimension.  This is the reason for using phrases like space-time continuum.  One might say that time co-exists with space, not in space.  (By space I assume that you mean the volumes between the stars, but this is no so different from the space here on Earth).\n\nBlack holes are another matter (literally).  Mass and velocity effect both time and space.  The greater the mass, the larger the effect.  A location known as a black hole has a mass so large that space is bent into a gravity well.  As one approaches the outer limit of the black hole (to the point of no return, called the event horizon), one would find an increase in velocity due to the gravity well.  At the event horizon, for all practical sense of reality, the universe as we know it stops.  Beyond the event horizon, no material object, nothing, not even light can escape.  As velocity increases, space would appear to compress along the direction of motion and time would appear to slow down to an outside observer, but the outside observer could observe anything beyond the event horizon (no light coming out, remember?).\n\nIf this is not clear enough shoot another question.

what to do when you want things to move a little faster with your boyfriend?

1st, you hafta be open with him.  if you want to move a little faster, mention it to him.  hes not a mind reader.  2nd, he might actually respect you, like most guys dont, and doesnt wanna ruin a good thing.  be patient and help him along.  3rd, he might be shy of public affection.\n\nthe only way to figure out anything is to talk to him.  relationships fizzle without communication.  \n\n7


I have read that the universe is finite. My question is if the universe is expanding what is it expanding into

It is expanding in a higher dimensional context.  So there are not 3 or 4 dimensional areas into which it expands, and you can't walk your four-dimensional self beyond the boundaries of space into a four-dimension area beyond space any more than Garfield or Dilbert can walk off the comic page to see the 3-D world in which the paper they're on could be folded.


Wow...I can't believe somebody thought Puerto Rico was a state....What is it?

A US Territory.\n\nThe Commonwealth of Puerto Rico (Spanish: Estado Libre Asociado de Puerto Rico) is a self-governing unincorporated organized territory of the United States located east of the Dominican Republic in the northeastern Caribbean. Puerto Rico, the smallest of the Greater Antilles, includes the main island of Puerto Rico and a number of smaller islands and keys, including Mona, Vieques, and Culebra.


If a math professor from a foreign country comes to America can he get a job as a math professor there?

Very likely the professor could get a job teaching at a college or university in the US if qualified because math is a universal language, the same all around the world.  To teach in a high sclool a teaching certificate would be needed and state requirements vary.  That said, the professor should have the language skills required to communicate with students in English.  I had an Engineering professor who was from China and received his PhD in Germany and spoke poor English.  Fortunately he was brilliant and we could easily follow his notes on the blackboard.  I believe he taught advanced hydraulics.

Does anyone one know 10 facts about Langston Hughes?

Langston Hughes published more than three dozen books during his life, beginning with poetry and then expanding into novels, short stories, and plays. He is closely associated with the Harlem Renaissance, the flowering of African-American literature and music in New York City following World War One. Hughes's work often spoke plainly about the lives of ordinary black people, which in later years earned him a reputation as one of the major black voices of the 1900s.

What happens to people in Australia who do not vote?

Voting actually is compulsory in Australia. Enroling as a voter has been compulsory since around 1900, but different territories have imposed compulsory voting over the years and federal elections have compulsory voting since 1924.\n\nIf someone does not vote, they are written a letter asking them to either supply a sufficient reason for not voting or pay $20. If they do neither within 21 days, they are taken to court and can be fined up to $50 plus court costs.


you have numbers 1-50, how many combinations possible using each number only once in each combination?

If we have only one number we have 50C1 = 50\nIf we have only one number we have 50C2 = 1225\nIf we have only one number we have 50C3 = 19600\n.\n.\n.\n.\nIf we have only one number we have 50C49 = 1225\nIf we have only one number we have 50C50 = 50\n\nSo the answer is 50C1 + 50C2 + 50C3 +........50C48 + 50C49 + 50C50

Has anyone else noticed that Google calculator doesn't always work properly?

Oddities like this are due to floating-point math, and are quite common, unfortunately.  The problem is that floating point numbers are stored in binary, and so they can only be an approximation of most numbers (like .1).  I bet if you do this calculation in Python or C, you'll get the same sort of answer.


My wife bears a great deal o f hurt  from my emotional and physical abuse of her in the past. What can i do?

I am sure that you are not the only person that would like this question answered. Unfortunately, we have all been in the position where we have hurt others. Some of the hurt it will take someone bigger than you or I or some shrink to heal. \n\nThe problem is that when a person hurts others like this, first one has to see that they have a problem. \nUsually it is caused because one feels a void in their life and they are trying to fill the void themselves. God created us in such a way that this void can only be filled by His Spirit alone. \nJesus can heal your home but first He needs to heal you. I am not talking about faith healers here. I am talking about healing your sin condition. He is the only one that can heal hearts and homes. \nYou have a debt not to your wife but to God. The problem is that this debt is so large that you would never be able to pay it. If your sin is not paid for you will spend eternity in hell. Jesus said that He was not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance. He stood our place. When He was suspended on that cross it was for your sin and mine. all he asks is that we accept his Son, Jesus and His redeeming work that He accomplished there on Calvery where after the third day rose victorious over the grave and death. He is waiting. He asked me to share this with you. Do you know that if you had been the only person in the universe that he would have come to die just for you to free you from the bonds of sin? He did. It is at the foot of the cross that you find what you are looking for. Tell the Lord that you realize that you are a sinner and that it was your sin that caused His only Son to go to an ole rugged cross. Tell Him that you accept His sacrifice and thank Him for what He did there. We realize that we are not worthy that we deserve an eternity in hell but thank you for giving Your all so that we could live with You for all eternity. in Jesus name, Amen\n\n\n\n1Jo 5:13 These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.


Should a kid take a 4 year football scolorship to a small school, b4 going into a large Business School.?

As long as the smaller school is regionally accredited I would say yes (and I can't think of any schools with a football program that is not RA). \n\nIf you are sure you want an MBA, and are certain you will do well both academically and on the gridiron then go for it and have a great time.


Do you believe in God? Jesus?  If you said no, do you believe in life after death?

Yes, God has made His presence known to me a couple times in my life.  I've also had some interesting occurances transpire that lead me to believe in the strong possibility of life after death.  It makes sense to me that our energy transfers to a different state.  Seems scientifically plausible, but it goes beyond our realm of understanding.

Do you know who sells Febreze scentstories player?


Urine us yellow because of the acid that is in it... The more yellow your urine is the more acid it has in it... So people who drink soda more than water tend to have more darker urine.... \n\nThe darker your urine is also tells you if you are dehydrated... It is only darker because you are peeing out more acid than water... so when your pee is clear it means you are taking in enough water that your body can spear extra to cleanse your bladder.

where can i get a cell phone on the internet if i dont have a bank account or a credit card?

Your best bet would be to go to a store like Kmart or Walmart and purchase a pay as you go cell phone. Since you don't have a bank account or a credit card you probably wouldn't be able to get a contract phone. Before I got my contract, I had a nice motorola cell phone and my phone company was net10 wireless. It's really simple, just 10 cents a minute and 5 cents for texts messages. You can purchase the phone and phone cards in Kmart or Walmart stores. If you want more info here's the website for net10:\n\nhttp://www.net10.com/home_page.jsp?b=i&flash=YES&p=W&task=home_page


Is a gallon of milk the same weight as a gallon of paint?

gah!\n\nthis is the problem with yahoo answers.  lots of downright wrong information.\n\nthe gallon is a unit of volume.  it is 3.78 liters. \n\nmilk and paint have different densitities.  depending on the type of paint you use, you get different densitites - the chart in the page below shows the densities for various formulations of paint varies from 8.5 pounds per gallon to 12 pounds per gallon.  milk has a density of 8.4 pounds per gallon.  so the answer largely depends on what kind of paint you use - a gallon of very thin, light paint will probably weigh only a little more than a gallon of milk.\n\njust remember, a gallon of air is still a gallon.

how do i get a trademark? do i need a lawyer?

To get a trademark, you first need to conduct a comprehensive national search to be sure the name, slogan or logo you wish to use is legally available for your use.  The USPTO site is a good PRELIMINARY search, but it does not show you any of the 50 State trademarks, nor the National Common Law registry (people without trademarks have first use rights to a name where they make a sale first, this is called Common Law rights).  You need to be aware of anyone with rights to the name as they can take legal action against you for infringing on their rights. Once your research is complete, you (or the company you hire to conduct the research) can then prepare and file a trademark application.  We can help you do all of this step by step at TradeMark Express!  You can call and ask any questions you may have at no charge (800-550-1520).

why do leafs gets brown or red in the fall?

During winter, there is not enough light or water for photosynthesis. The trees will rest, and live off the food they stored during the summer. They begin to shut down their food-making factories. The green chlorophyll disappears from the leaves. As the bright green fades away, we begin to see yellow and orange colors. Small amounts of these colors have been in the leaves all along. We just can't see them in the summer, because they are covered up by the green chlorophyll. \n\nThe bright reds and purples we see in leaves are made mostly in the fall. In some trees, like maples, glucose is trapped in the leaves after photosynthesis stops. Sunlight and the cool nights of autumn cause the leaves turn this glucose into a red color. The brown color of trees like oaks is made from wastes left in the leaves. \n\nIt is the combination of all these things that make the beautiful colors we enjoy in the fall. \n\n\n\n\nhttp://www.sciencemadesimple.com/leaves.html\n\nGOOD LUCK\n\nParadiso

Does the Federal government have the authority to address the legality of abortion and similar "moral" issues?

The moral issues you cited, by category, should be deemed lifestyle preferences. As a non-lawyer, but as someone who has studied law, my point of view of this issue is that the state should only intervene if there is demonstrable harm present. Some say it should be merely harm, or potential harm, but that will never wash in front of our Supreme Court.

Go study Peak Oil and invest into oil related stocks.

Why do victims of domestic violence stay with their abuser?

Because they are often manipulated to completely depend on their abuser. Lots of people think that abuse is just physical, it's not, the abuser puts down the victim so much  and isolates them so that they think that they could never make it on their own, and noone else would want them and they have no other options. Also, abuser often controlls money, could threaten to kill victim if she leaves (most victims get killed when trying to leave) hurt victims' children, other family members or pets.

Anyway, I'll try to go from this.\n\nMy first instinct is to check for viruses, you can get a very good (and free) scanner from http://free.grisoft.com besides that you could scan for spyware by using all of these, Spybot search and destroy, Adaware SE and MS AntiSpyware.\n\nThen it could be a case of a hardware or driver issue but until I know exactly what you are using it is a little difficult to provide a solution.


DOES WARM AIR MIGRATE TO WARM OR DOES COLD AIR MIGRATE TO WARM?

Both.  Warm air moves up (the molecules are spread out more) and cold air moves down.  If you are talking about warm fronts and cold fronts, they are moved by pressure systems.


Disabilities are varied and different. I am sure you aware that the late Christopher Reeve was Paralyzed, he had a physical disability. That is the most obvious of the disabilities. Others are Blindness, Deafness, Arthritis, etc. Then there are "hidden" disabilities i.e. Learning Disabilities such as Dyslexia and Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD/ADHD),there is also Mental Illness such as Depression, Bi-polar Disorder, etc. More than 10% of the US population have some kind of disability or another.

Is there such thing as a 'Dixie-crat' anymore?

DixieCrat wasn't just a term meaning southern conservative Democrat, it was a real party (it's official name was the "State's Rights party")formed as a 3rd party in 1948, with Strom Thurmond as it's presidential candidate.(here was their official platform in 1948, including segregation- http://www.thesmokinggun.com/archive/dixiecrat1.html)\n\nit pretty much fell apart after the 1948 election.\nBasically, a dixiecrat is a person that stands by the old line democrat platform of segregationist policies (the Democrats used to be the conservative party, and the Republican party was the progressive party- this started to change between the election cycles of 1932 and 1940 with FDR)- the dixiecrats were formed in response to Truman's integration of the armed services and the overall democrat civil rights plank.\n\nBasically in answer to your question,  no there really aren't any people around anymore that believe in the Democratic party but are against it's policies.  Even "yellow dog" Democrats are no longer the type of people that support the party without supporting it's causes.  \n\nThe death knell for the dixiecrats was when Thurmond switched over to the Republican party...the rest fell in line behind him like dominos.


what kind of laws deal with fake signatures??

In general, faking a signature falls under fraud statutes, but as a previous responder said, what laws exactly depends on the context. If it involves the mail system, federal laws have jurisdiction, or in other cases it would more likely fall under state laws.

The world's oldest religion, atleast chronologically from a historic perspective is Hinduism (Sanatana Dharma). However, please keep in mind that everyone of every religion considers their religion to not be 'new'. Christianity is seen as a fulfillment of prophecies based in Judaism. Baha'i is based upon prophecies in Islam. So as far as Judaism, Christianity, Islam, and Baha'i, if you ask a member of this religion they can each point backwards through the Abrahamic traditions to how each 'fulfilled' other areas, thus keeping them within the same line. THe same can be said of Buddhism, Jainism, Sikhism, etc. So when asking this question it is best to be aware of what exactly you are wanting to know. As one Christian I know said "Jesus was a part of God in the begining, thus Christianity is the oldest religion because Jesus was always a part of God, but it is young if you only compare it from a historic chronological perspective." I think that is well said.\nThus from a Historice Chronological Perspective from oldest to youngest the religions go:\nHinduism\nZoroastrianism\nJudaism\nJainism\nBuddhism\nTaoism\nConfucism\nShinto\nChristianity\nIslam\nSikhism\nBaha'i\nNeoPaganism*\n\nPlease note that many in the NeoPagan movement claim direct connection to the Pagan past and often direct it to a specific ancient culture/civilization, but not all. Some state that theirs is a new religion based upon a revitalization of ancient religions, but not the ancient religions themselves. So one has to be careful in this area, too. Native American beliefs and Shamanism are not listed, nor did I name Unitarian-Universalism, Rastafarianism, etc. I mainly listed major world religions. (UUs do not necessarily view themselves as a religion in itself, but rather an approach to religion with many in a UU congregation holding a wide variety of beliefs from many of the worlds religions. There are some UU, though, who would claim that as their religion so no offense to those who do).

Do jews and muslims beleive in the same G-d?

Yeah, they actually do, as well as Christians. The only difference is that Muslims refer to God as Allah, which is Islamic for god, and the Jews call him Jehovah, which is Hebrew for god. Some Christians who live in the Middle East even refer to God as Allah, because that's His name in their language.

Sure. Christmas is a nice holiday.  I'm sure most of us have mixed emotions on this holiday for many different reasons.  I think the predominant emotion would be happiness, though.  Its a nice thing to see someone in love with the gift you gave them.  Sharing is a really nice thing-even if it isn't an exchange of gifts, its nice to share time with people on this holiday.


What are the design problems of Intel 8086 microprocessors?

Also, when you say "design problems" it sounds like you're asking about the technical challenges or technical flaws. A technical challenge would be when the designers have to figure out how to design a particular circuit. A technical flaw would be an error in a multiplier that went unnoticed before production. \n\nOn the other hand you may be asking about architectural problems, which refers to problems with some aspect of the 8086 architecture, e.g. the segmented memory architecture used to be a big limitation that the Motorola 68000 did not have.


why do americans drive on the left side when alot of other countrys dirve on the right side?

It stems from our anti-British values back in the days of the revolution.  It is the same reason why our horse races, and car races are ran counter clockwise on the track.  The British ran their horse races clockwise and we were so anti-British back in the day that we did it the opposite.  It snowballed from there.......


It is held in many mental health circles that masturbation can relieve depression and lead to a higher sense of self-worth. Masturbation can also be particularly useful in relationships where one partner wants more sex than the other — in which case masturbation provides a balancing effect and thus a more harmonious relationship.\n\nBoth from the standpoint of avoiding unwanted pregnancy and that of avoiding sexually transmitted diseases, masturbation is the safest of sexual practices. There is no credible scientific or medical evidence that manual masturbation is damaging to either one's mental or physical health.\n\nOn 2003-07-16, an Australian research team led by Graham Giles of The Cancer Council published a medical study which concluded that frequent masturbation by males may help prevent the development of prostate cancer. The study also indicated that this would be more helpful than ejaculation through sexual intercourse because intercourse can transmit diseases that may increase the risk of cancer instead. Another study came to similar conclusions in April 2004.

About common stock, the market will set the price on common stock. The buyer puts bid price and the amount of stock he or she willing to buy. The stock holder puts sell price and amount of stock on sale. In the market, you can see bid price and sale price. Once the two price becomes the same, the transaction would make base on the amount of stock. When the transaction occur , the stock price will show on the market. \n\nOther stock type\npreferred stocks: Capital stock which provides a specific dividend that is paid before any dividends are paid to common stock holders, and which takes precedence over common stock in the event of a liquidation. Usually does not carry voting rights.This stock price is set by company.\n\nmarket price: A security's last reported sale price (if on an exchange) or its current bid and ask prices (if over-the-counter); i.e. the price as determined dynamically by buyers and sellers in an open market.

Is it safe for a child to start lifting wieghts at age nine?

I'd suggest talking with your child's doctor about this if possible.  He's still developing, so actually lifting weights could be dangerous.\n\nHowever, getting him into youth sports may be a good alternative if weightlifting isn't a good idea.  He can build muscle and learn teamwork at the same time.

Well, before answering your question, I was watching Dave Chappel's Show ( You know how much he mentions about the N word). \n\nN-i-g-g-e-r, or the N-word is a controversial term used in many to refer to people of African descent. During the chattel enslavement of Africans, it was once the standard, casual English term for black people.\n\nThe word "N-i-g-g-e-r" originates from the Dutch and German "neger," which is their translation for  "negro", which comes directly from Latin "nigrum". The English distorted neger to "negar" to "n-i-g-g-e-r."

Why do Americans call British people "Brits?"?

In London I've also heard some Australians and New Zealanders use the shortened form 'Brits' among other English-speakers (probably copying American usage).\n\nI suppose it's the American response to being called 'Yanks', which I hear isn't always a civil term for Americans.\n\n\nIdiom (and slang) which develop according to the rule of "whatever's easier to say wins" leads English-speakers to use 'Brit' over 'British'.\n\nIn pronunciation, 'Brits' is shorter, quicker and easier to say than 'British'.  The 't' and 'sh' in 'British' can make the word sound too posh for informal circles.\n\nAlso, 'British' is really an adjective used as a noun so it can sometimes sound odd or formal for that reason as in some sentences you have to elongate it into a composite noun, e.g. 'British people' instead of 'the British'.  \n\n'Brits' (although slang) is a pure noun in all its uses so it does not require another noun after it.\n\n \nCompare:\nThe British are coming (=> aren't we posh!)\nThe Brits are coming (=> more informal)\n\nIt's not quite correct to say that the British/Brits don't use the term.  There is the Brit Awards, Brits Abroad, and Britpop to consider.\n\n\nAn aside: some searching on the net for 'brit' will lead you to the Jewish faith, where a 'brit' is a circumcision (in Biblical Hebrew 'brit' means covenant) - tho more Americans/Yanks are circumcised than British People/Brits).

There is no "best" way.  Each number has the same odds of being picked.  It's just as likely for 2-4-6-8-10-12 to be picked as any other combination of numbers.  The fact that certain numbers are picked more often than others is purely a matter of chance.  The numbers don't "remember" from week to week which ones were picked.

how many kind of Operating System ? Exemple ?

Operating systems can be grouped according to functionality: operating systems for supercomputing, render farms, mainframes, servers, workstations, desktops, handheld devices, real time systems, or embedded systems.\n\n* Supercomputing is primarily scientific computing, usually modelling real systems in nature. Render farms are collections of computers that work together to render animations and special effects. Work that previously required supercomputers can be done with the equivalent of a render farm.\n\n* Mainframes used to be the primary form of computer. Mainframes are large centralized computers. At one time they provided the bulk of business computing through time sharing. Mainframes and mainframe replacements (powerful computers or clusters of computers) are still useful for some large scale tasks, such as centralized billing systems, inventory systems, database operations, etc. When mainframes were in widespread use, there was also a class of computers known as minicomputers which were smaller, less expensive versions of mainframes for businesses that couldn’t afford true mainframes.\n\n* Servers are computers or groups of computers used for internet serving, intranet serving, print serving, file serving, and/or application serving. Servers are also sometimes used as mainframe replacements.\n\n* Desktop operating systems are used for personal computers.\n\n* Workstations are more powerful versions of personal computers. Often only one person uses a particular workstation (like desktops) and workstations often run a more powerful version of a desktop operating system, but workstations run on more powerful hardware and often have software associated with larger computer systems.\n\n* Handheld operating systems are much smaller and less capable than desktop operating systems, so that they can fit into the limited memory of handheld devices.\n\n* Real time operating systems (RTOS) are specifically designed to respond to events that happen in real time. This can include computer systems that run factory floors, computer systems for emergency room or intensive care unit equipment (or even the entire ICU), computer systems for air traffic control, or embedded systems. RTOSs are grouped according to the response time that is acceptable (seconds, milliseconds, microseconds) and according to whether or not they involve systems where failure can result in loss of life.\n\n* Embedded systems are combinations of processors and special software that are inside of another device, such as the electronic ignition system on cars.


Where is pergatory mentioned in the Bible?

Purgatory, per se, is not in the bible...in the Old testament, there was a section of hell used as a holding tank for believing Jews, who were waiting for the Messiah. When Jesus died, before he arose, he desended into hell to free those that were there and bring them to heaven. Jesus makes some reference to this compartment of hell when he tells the story about Lazarus and the rich man.\n\nOnce Jesus had accomplished his purpose here, there was no longer a need for this compartment, since people who died then went straight to heaven, not to a holding tank. .."to be absent from the body means to be present with the Lord."\n\nThe "Purgatory" section of hell was done away with when this compartment was closed, since it was no longer needed.  But it was never meant to be a place of temporal punishment.


provev, by comparing coefficients, that any n x n matrix satisfies its own characteristic equation.?

it called the Cayley-Hamilton Theorem, type it in google and its proved in many places;\n\n\nhttp://delta.cs.cinvestav.mx/~mcintosh/comun/summer99/mcintosh/node9.html  <---this one is good :)\n\nLet B = x*I - A, where I is the identity matrix of the same size as A.  \nLet C be the classical adjoint of B, so that BC = (det B)I.

These are measurements of computer data. Computers understand 1s and 0s. A single 1 or a single 0 is the most basic unit of information for a computer, and this is called a bit. From here on,\n\n1 byte     = 8 bits\n1024 bytes = 1 KB (Kilobyte)\n1024 KBs   = 1 MB (megabytes)\n1024 MBs   = 1 GB (gigabytes)\n1024 GBs   = 1 TB (terrrabyte)\n\nThe weird numbers are because they are expressed in powers of 2. 8 bytes = 2X10^3, 1024 = 2x10^10\n\nComputers easily manipulate things that are expressed in powers of 2.

well maybe you should have researched from a more historical point of view, right from the monroe doctrine to american-mexican wars to present. you will find that americans have been meddling in the affairs of other countries right from its inception, first in latin america and after WWII, in other countries (when it emerged the only unscathed and extremely wealthy nation in the world). so in the eyes of majority of people around the world, (and here i am talking about people who think for themselves, not people who are easily led by popular media, which is usually pro-US anyway), americans have always been viewed as cavalier adventureres at best and murdering cowards at best, who bomb impoverished countries from heights before moving in their army. even when the americans are not directly involved (as in physical presence of armies), they usually have a hand in almost all politics of the world, by more subtle means-economic warfare....\nall this is being exposed daily, mostly thanx to the internet, and needless to say, world opinion has turned sharply anti-american especially after the cowardly iraqi war that the yanks waged. \nso 'bad guys' yeah, americans are being considered more and more of that which is unfortunate really because the most spirited and creative resisitance to the american policies have come from within US itself. unfortunate, yes....understandable, absolutely. america is an empire, an empire in decline.\nso perhaps americans had better heed what gibbon said about sparta, a strikingly military oriented nation not very disimilar to US\n"when sparta fell, all wondered in awe, none mourned'


What kind of psychotherapy works the best?

The answer to your question is not easy. Some therapists use a limited approach (ie. only interpersonal, focused on your relationships with others.) In my opinion, CBT (Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy) is often successful if other approaches have failed. \n\nI am the maintainer of a portal called http://health.wikispaces.com that is helping to answer (I hope) precisely these kinds of questions. It is Invitation-Only, so that it is not open to misinformation. (people who can access the site can also edit it to add their own research, and experiences.)\n\nThe answer to your question is that depending on the reason you are seeking psychotherapy, different methods will work best.\n\nI think this is really a multistep question, so I am going to give you some sources of information and then ask you to come back for a follow-up.\n\nWebMD.com, using experts from the Cleveland clinic (WebMD uses different sources, some of which are not very comforting), has a detailed article on psychotherapy I highly recommend:\nhttp://www.webmd.com/content/article/60/67128.htm\n\nI am going to add to this. The first thing you should discuss with any therapist is what brought you to see them, and what your goals are, and also billing. Insurance will often cover up to a certain amount; some therapists or social workers (both do therapy to some degree) work on a sliding pay scale (ie. they negociate on rate you pay.)\n\nhttp://www.webmd.com/content/article/60/67128.htm\n\nMy local counselor here at Earlham College in Richmond, IN says that eclectic therapists are the best -- ie. the ones that can use any approach that seems helpful. (She has a Masters in Social Work.) \n\nTherapists vary. Some are really good and give you specific directed guidance. Techniques are being researched all the time. I just saw a really good article on 'resellience therapy' which sounded really cool. (If you are interested, I will provide you with the link.)\n\nLet me know how I  can best assist you!\n\n--Sam, journalist and healer of myself


Who wants to spend bilions of tax dollars to rebuild New Orleans right?

I agree with bd, we help other countries more than we help our own and these people need our help. I understand your point but look at the monies our government wastes on less important issues. This one my friend is the best way I have seen in a long time to spend money, and if we don't rebuild New Orleans, what state is next? in a 100 years who knows what the earth will look like but I am all for preserving what we have and rebuilding when tragedy strikes.

should I buy a 12 inch apple powerbook or ibook?

I prefer the iBooks but there are a few other things to consider.  Yes, the PowerBooks have more powerful processors.  And they are also made of aluminum but they dent very easily.  iBooks do not dent but if you are rough with it can scratch (which is better than getting dents in the case if you ask me).  Apple has also introduced some new "high resolution" display technology which has caused annoying lines to appear on some displays.\n\nAnother question you should ask yourself is do you want to buy one now or wait for the Intel based iBooks or PowerBooks.  The Intel based Apple laptops, provided they use the Pentium M in it will feature longer battery life and better performance when running native OSX x86 applications.  Older PowerPC (OSX applications only) software will be translated in almost real time by using Rosetta.


Muslims worship at any clean place.  However, they do their congregational prayers (solat) at the mosques.

where can i download Mac OS 10.2? I am currently operating on 10.1.5?

Well, you can't, I'm not a Mac user but I'm pretty sure that you can't purchase OSX 10.2 anymore.  The latest version is OSX 10.4 Tiger.  I'm going to say that you'll have to buy Tiger and reformat your computer.  I don't know if you can upgrade from 10.1.5 to Tiger or not but I'm pretty sure you can't.\n\nWhether or not you can run Tiger also depends on your system specs which requires you to have a PowerPC G3, G4 or G5 processor at 600MHz or faster and 256MB of memory and a DVD drive.


islam says that all people are equal ,what christianity says abt this?

Yes, Islam teachings cleared this idea and showed the quality between people.\n\nand for those who are saying there's no equality between man and woman in Islam, then they know nothing about Islam except what they are seeing in TV from the bad media of their own countires, and by the way women can drive in all the muslim countries except Saudia Arabia ONLY, and they got there reasons that i dont want to go through.\n\nIslam also made equality with men and women, the thing that we differ from that Islam taught us how to take care of women and let them wear proper clothing for one goal which Islam wanted is to protect them from rape and sexual harrasment that happens hundreds of times a day in different countries, as muslims we took direct teachings from Prophet Muhammad(PBUH) to treat women just like treating glass, handle with care ;), because he knew how sensitive women are and complicated, therefore we should not break their hearts.\n\nIslam is great from this aspect of equality, even Martin Luther King was impressed by equality of Islam, when civil wars was on between black and white in the US here in Islam black and white were living as brothers up to this day.\n\nsomething that made me proud actually how in every year in HAJ pilgrims from rich and poor , black and white gather for praying for one God beside each other and hand by hand.

Is it true eating less will actually make you fatter?

1.  if you don't do anything physical and you eat less, then the food your body does get it will store as fat cuz it thinks it is starving\n\n1. A.  Also, your body gets what it needs from the muscle you have, so you're also slowing down your metabolism which means even more fat will be stored.\n\n2.  If you eat less and exercise, you'll be less likely to store fat.\n\n3.  If you exercise to build muscle (not like a bodybuilder necessarily) you'll "speed up" your metabolism which you'll be able to get away with eating more and not put on fat as easily.

What is the sum of 6.210 L and 3 L expressed in the correct number of significant digits?

When you're adding in significant digits, you restrict your answer by using the smallest number of digits after the decimal point.  In this case, you have a value that has 0 digits after the decimal point (3 L), so your answer will also have 0 digits after the decimal point.  Therefore, your answer is 9 L.


what is a "wirelesss bridge" used for in LAN networking?

A wireless bridge takes a wireless signal and converts it into ethernet. Basically allowing you to plug in any device that has an ethernet port.\nYou will have to tell the wireless bridge your wireless networks settings much like a laptop or desktop on your wireless LAN. Once programmed with the correct information it's just plug and go.\nI've used the Linksys and Motorola bridges and they work very well. The Motorola one only allows one device and the Linksys allows multiple devices.\nIf you are gaming you are going to want a 802.11g wireless bridge. If you just want internet connectivity you can get an 802.11b bridge which is a little cheaper.\nThis would allow your xbox or any other device to get internet connectivity. They are very simple to setup. Both the Linksys and Motorola come with setup cds to make the process a snap.


Who's the better McLaren F1 driver - Mika Hakkinen or Kimi Raikkonen?

Kimi's never been WDC, and Mika has beaten Michael Schumacher twice.  On the other hand, Kimi is still very young and has had setbacks in terms of vehicle performance and reliability that Mika didn't have to deal with.  My vote is with Kimi, they are both Flying Finns, but I think Kimi flies a little faster.


why does bitcomet not connect to all available peers?

are you behind a router/firefall? if so you will need to configure the router for port forwarding, you will need to know the ports bitcomet uses eg 7075-7080, and the ip address of the computer running bitcomet, eg 192.168.1.101. (those are probably not the correct port and address, thats just my example.)

Hi, how do I ask a girl for dinner out ?

Well, dinner before proposing is a very good idea.\nAs for how to ask, be direct, say to her "If you're free next Friday, I'd like to have dinner with you at Such-and-such place." Unless you've left out some important detail, she is not going to be angry about being asked out for dinner, if she says "no" accept it gracefully and just say "Maybe some other time" Her response to that will tell you if she's interested or not.\n My only other advice is, if she accepts your invitation, don't go to an italian restaurant...you'll be nervous enough without high risk foods like pasta and marinara sauce.


How much cash money do you need to be able to "live well" off investments and interest alone?

well, the definition to be considered nationally wealthy is 3 million.  the reason being is that you cant really lose your money unless you buy like 500 thousand dollar cars.  thats the defition as of right now.  in the future it will most likely change.  But, even if you dont have 3 million.  you would be surprised at how much you would have to work to somewhat live at the 3 million level, having considerably less money.  say for insstance.  you might even be able to live the same way a nationally wealth person does by doing like 5 or 10 hours a week, and having only a million.  once that money is there, its not easy to lose it unless you get really unlucky. one of the fastest riches is in real estate, but it is a fast way to lose it if you dont know what you are doing.  its all about investing.  interest on a million isnt much.  if you go to annuities, you will get more, but u cant touch your own principle.  thats the sucky part.  and if you die, you wont get anything.  it depends on how you do it with annuities.

What was on the Licencse Plate Number on the police car on The Andy Griffith Show?


how do you set up WEP protection on a wireless network with a router not attached to a pc and 2 laptops?

That will really depend on the router, particularly if it allows a wireless computer to log into it.  For security reasons, some routers will only allow settings to be changed by a computer with a physical, wired connection.\n\nBecause all routers are different, your best bet is to determine the make and model of the router, then visit the manufacturer's website to try and obtain the owner's manual, assuming you don't have it available.  You may have to temporarily connect one computer with an ethernet cable to do the initial setup.  Whether or not the router requires a wired connection, it's usually a configuration tool (attainable at the mfr's website) or just opening up a browser and entering in a specific IP address (192.168.0.1 is a common one) to access the controls for the router, including WEP/security settings.\n\nGood luck and hope that helps some!

What is the single strongest, most cogent argument against gay marriage?

I do not necessarily agree but here is the argument.  The purpose of giving a married couple special rights under the law is to make it easier for them to raise children and pass their physical wealth  and property on to the next generation.  This is assuming that the partnership is a lifetime commitment and that children are raised (these may not be valid assumptions).  A gay couple can not directly produce children.  This is not to say that they do not raise any children, just that biologically they cannot produce children.  The main purpose of marriage in Western culture is the production of children.\n\nWhere the gay community is falling short is in their lack of appropriately enlightening the general public about their problems having long term commitments without legal rights.  No human alive is without moral sin.  Some do not recognize that intolerance is a sin.\n\nWhat complicates the issue in today’s American society is that there is still no scientific proof as to the reason people are gay.  The general population fears that being gay is a learned response to environmental factors has little to do with genetics.  Many assume that gay couples would raise gay children.  This would defeat the purpose of marriage in their eyes.\n\nThose that wish to make a moral issue out of it tend to be intolerant to others who are not part of their own subculture.  Those who are misinformed tend to have no understanding about the legal issues with shared property, hospital visitation rights, insurance problems and others details of which you know but that they have never considered.

what is the international price of edible ethanol?

Ethanol is ethyl alcohol, the pharmacologically active part of beer.  It depends on the "proof" of the alcohol.  Pure alcohol is generally not "edible" (or drinkable) because ethanol forms an azeotrope (a mixture that cannot be separated by distillation) when it is ~95% ethanol and 5% water.  The azeotrope is broken by chemicals that are bad for humans, like benzene.

Yahoo! Answers says 'Earn money for your answers' on your profile page, how do you think that will work?

The anwsers are free...NOW. This is still in Beta. The structure will probably change into something similar to Google's "answer" site. That is, you'll have to pay. I think you'll pay Yahoo a subscription or pay/answer and then yahoo will give a comission (prize award) to the best answerer. But this is just my speculation. They should keep this stuff free :)


What alternatives are there to Yahoo! Answers?

And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. All these are the beginning of sorrows. Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake. And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold."\n\nWatch the news; this is happening right now. I believe it will be soon, but no one can put a date or time on it.

What is the preferred treatment for a large hematoma on the shin caused by trauma?

The doctors are right. I developed one on  my shin after a wreck. 6 months later it was flat and only minorly discolored, 8 months later it was no longer painful to the touch and the coloration had gone, 10 months later it no longer hurt to run. It does take a while, I would wait as long as you can to decide to get it drained, because I was told this can be painful. But if there's absolutely no change in color or size after 7 months, you may want to go for it, cause that's about when the calcification process starts (Eventually it will turn hard.) Healing time also depends on where the hematoma is located. If there is mostly bone and not alot of muscle mass, it may not take as long (i.e. top of foot, hand, etc.) In areas with much muscle mass and fat, it may take a long time, because the muscle absorbs all the protein.\n\nHere's what you can do to hurry it a little: \n\nFill a styrofoam cup with water and freeze.\n\nTear the top rim off so a half inch or so protrudes like chapstick.\n\nMassage the hematoma lightly with this ice for 15 minutes at a time, 3 to 4 times daily.\n\nAt night, use some form of localized heat, that can be comfortable and not dangerous or painfull. This will help promote bloodflow in that area.\n\nDON'T rub or massage the area, you may make the area bleed again under the skin, starting you back at day 1.\n\nEat a diet rich in protein.\n\nGet extra rest if the hematoma is on your legs or feet.\n\nGood luck, I hope this helps you.


The tradition of the Christmas tree originates from where?

History\nThe Christmas tree is often explained as a Christianization of the ancient pagan idea that the evergreen tree represents a celebration of the renewal of life. In Roman mosaics from what is today Tunisia, showing the mythic triumphant return from India of the Greek god of wine and male fertility, Dionysus (dubbed by some modern scholars as a life-death-rebirth deity), the god carries a tapering coniferous tree. Medieval legends, nevertheless, tended to concentrate more on the miraculous "flowering" of trees at Christmastime. A branch of flowering Glastonbury thorn is still sent annually for the Queen's Christmas table in the United Kingdom.\n\n \nTaiwanese aboriginals, tutored by Christian missionaries, celebrate with trees (Cunninghamia lanceolata) outside their homes.Among early Germanic tribes the Yule tradition was celebrated by sacrificing male animals, and slaves, by suspending them on the branches of trees. According to Adam of Bremen, in Scandinavia the pagan kings sacrificed nine males of each species at the sacred groves every ninth year. According to one legend, Saint Boniface attempted to introduce the idea of trinity to the pagan tribes using the cone-shaped evergreen trees because of their triangular appearance.

What happens to a freshwater fish when you put it in saltwater?

It depends on the fish.  Salmon are spawned in fresh-water lakes and swim to the sea only to return as adults up rivers and dams to their birth lakes to repeat the cycle.  Some fish live in brackish water that is part fresh and part salt water which changes with the tides.  Some fish cannot adapt from fresh to salt water or vice versa.

In a nutshell, the original Blood Type "O", hunters & gatherers, do best eating meat, fish, nuts, berries/fruits & eggs. Anything harvested naturally in the wild, and eaten fresh...minimal cooking. No processed foods. Roughly 50% of the human population, is still "O"...\nBlood Type "A", the first farmers to grow grain at the same location. They thrive on breads, cereal grains & vegetables, some fruits, some fish, less meat. They are most prone to cancers, and comprise roughly 30% of the population...\nBlood Type "B" were nomadic people, milking their transportion (Camels, cows, sheep, goats, etc.). This is the only Type that thrives on dairy products, and has the most balanced diet overall. Each new environment they encountered in their travels, had different foods available. They represent 15% of the people...\nBlood Type "AB" is the newest evolutionary Blood Type. It is only 1000 years old and combimes some of the traits of both "A" & "B". These are only 5% of the population...\n\nThat's roughly how it works, and health is more the focus, than dieting (losing weight) per se...


Who sat in, on the song Tusk, by Fleetwood Mac?


same question but...then why cant people except gay people?

People often cannot accept what they do not know. My brother married a black woman, it was kind of a surprise to my family because we didn't know many black folks. Also, because he is really really ugly.\n\nSome folks are just closed minded and don't want to change. The other day I was trying to get into a movie. Threre was a really long line we were trying to sneak in to stay warm. It was 32 deg outside. I overheard this older lady prattling on about how selfish my friend and I were because we were letting in cold air. She was telling her friend that we were not good Christians and we would probably go to hell for our selfishness. \n\nLot of knuckleheads in the world.

How many points will ALLEN IVERSON score this Friday against the Miami HEAT???

Iverson has averaged 34.4 points per game this season.    He's only averaged 31.8 PPG at home. He put up 33 on the Heat earlier this season.  On one day's rest he averages 33.8 PPG this season.  The Heat are going through a coaching change at the moment, but Shaq has returned to the lineup.  The Heat will also be on the road for back-to-back games just before this game.  I wouldn't be surprised to see AI put up at least 35.\n\nEDIT: Iverson put up EXACTLY 35.


How long does it take for hair loss to return after chemotherapy?

I've seen it return in less than a month after chemotherapy stops.  What helps is "flushing" due to drinking lots of water and apporpriate eating.  The hair often comes back different.  In a different color, with a downy feel, and even in a different shape or pattern - it's wonderful to see.


When quitting smoking, what tool is best used to help: nicoderm cq or the gum etc.?

I had the most success with gum together with cognitive behavioral self-therapy - changing patterns of behaviors that I associated with smoking, like after eating or after sex.  So you may need to find something to replace your addiction to cigarettes - something healthier.\n\nGood luck!


Real, fer shure. The smell of fresh pine means it's Christmas (to me) I couldn't be without it! I used to feel bad about killing the tree, but they are grown especially for this purpose and can be recycled afterwards.


Why does God let bad things happen to good people?

First of all, there is no such thing as 'good people' because we are all by nature inclined toward evil.  However, many of us have been saved by the death of Christ so that we have the beginning of a new life in Him that, by God's grace, enable us to do good works.  We are never free from our evil natures, however, until we die.  \n\nRegarding 'bad things' that happen: God may place you in a difficult situation in life because He has some greater purpose in mind, either with regard to your life here on earth or with regard to your future life in heaven.  He may be showing you your human weakness and your need to rely on Him, or keeping you from becoming too attached to the things of this life to the neglect of your spiritual life.  I don't know what your specific situation is, but I know that God has used illness to bring me closer to Him and remind me of my own weakness.  It seems that when life is going well for me, I tend to forget God and the fact that he has given me so much; instead I begin to indulge my pride and think of all that I have accomplished instead of being thankful like I should.  \n\nI hope this is helpful.  I will pray that it is.

what is the best way to lose weight fast?

No dairy products, reduce your carbs, increase protein and eat 5 SMALL meals (snack size) a day. Power walk at least 45 mins a day, and within 2 weeks you'll be 10 lbs lighter.  If you need to lose 5-7 pounds super fast, then just buy meal replacement bars and only eat those for a week.  Nothing else.  (No more than 2.5 a day).  Not the best thing to do, but short term it works.
