when a movie is being produced ,how is film from different cameras edited and put together, how issoundsynchro

There are many details about how raw film is edited into the finished product.  In a feature film, each scene is shot from different angles and different distances.  Also, several to many takes are made.  In all, around 20 hours of film are often shot for a 1-1/2 or 2-hour movie.\n\nThe editor splices shots into a "rough cut."  This is a version of the movie that may have duplicate shots of scenes, and the shots are not edited to their final length.  The editor watches the rough cut over and over, making decisions about what effects he wants to use, based on his experience, what the film looks like, the timing of the music, what the director wants, and any number of other things.\n\nThe "slate" is used to synchronize sound.  The slate is the small board that has a slapstick attached to the top.  When the camera and recorder are turned on, the slate is held in front of the camera and the slapstick is slapped against the slate.  This makes a sharp cracking sound.  This can be seen clearly on the optical sound track, and of course, heard clearly.  The point in the soundtrack at which the sound is recorded is properly lined up with the frame of film in which the slapstick can be seen coming into contact with the slate.  (The soundtrack is offset from the image because as the image passes through the gate, the soundtrack a couple feet before this is being read by the projector's sound devices.)\n\nThis is the very basic idea.  There is a lot more to it.  Get some filmmaking books from the library if you want to know more.


Why are there so many Jews in Hollywood?

Because they are extremely talented in the area of entertainment, writing and production. I do not want to explain why I feel this is so, because many would paint me in a negative light. However, persecuted people or those who come from impoverished circumstances, have been known to turn their vexation into humor (while others turn to hatred). That is why I think "Everyone Hates Chris" is a very interesting program, Chris Rock turned his lowly past into high spoof comedy--with a rare intact family unit no less.\nAnother reason could be hiring practices. There is always a tendancy, no matter how many laws say this is a no no, to hire those you hang around with. Sort of an "inside" thing. This has good points as well as bad. The good points are that you can get some very talented people in there. The bad is you end up with many movies that paint Christians as uptight and even evil. I can give you a very long list. After the success of the Passion, this might change.

how long does it take to get a degree in Psychology?

It's an awe. When you watch someone and love their mannerisms, their words, the way their mind clicks, their reactions, their little idiosyncracies.... you realize that you are just in awe. We fall in love because experiences have taught us how to appreciate those things we see in another. Usually we fall in love with someone that has the kind of traits that complement what you have in your life. Love isn't really complicated. It's honestly so simple. But it's rare.....very rare. So once we find it.....we tend to want to cling to that feeling and that person forever.  :)

how do i keep my cpa licence current when i start working in private accounting?

You maintain you license by taking CPE (Continuing Professional Education) course that are offered in different ways. See this link for help. \n\nhttp://www.passonline.com/default.aspx\n\nYou must do this even though you are still working in a public firm.\n\nEvery state has different requirements for maintaining you license. For example, in my state, we must take 80 credits of CPE every two years. My state will also send me a reminder of this and I must submit proof that I have taken 80 credit courses. Then, the state sends me a new license to cover the next two years. You should find out about what your state requires and make sure you fulfill them.\n\nHope this helps!


Your question doesn't exactly have one answer.  Dial-up was massively introduced about 10 years ago.  However, the earliest recorded use of communication between computers through a data line began in the 1950s.  Joseph Licklider was actually one of the pioneers for global connectivity.  He was considered an expert in "artificial intelligence."    Google Mr. Licklider and you'll get more information on his contributions to dial-up networking.

I am not Dominican or Mexican, but here is my best guess: In general Mexicans are at a lower socioeconomic status than Dominicans. Since the average Caucasian American can't tell the difference between Dominicans and Mexicans (like the way some people say all Asians look alike), Dominicans are often mistaken for Mexicans, and feel that they are treated with less respect because people assume they are Mexican and poor.\n\nP.S. Not my belief, I believe people should be treated as INDIVIDUALS, not as Dominican, Mexican, Asian, Caucasian, rich or poor, but this is our society...


It's still 18.  In Alaska, Alabama, and Utah, the minimum age is 19.  Twice recently, in 2002 and 2004, California legislators tried to raise the smoking age to 21, but they failed both times.  It may arrive again soon.  I've linked summaries of both previous attempts.


my question is who invented the christmas tree and  lights for the holidays and how did that come about ?

Christmas trees historically came from Germany, but were made popular by the Victorian Britain celebration of Christmas in the mid 1840s. That's where things like tinsel, holly, puddings, Santa Claus etc really started to take off and become part of Christmas. \n\nTrees were decorated with lots of glass ornaments in the early days as well as candles. Eventually the candles were replaced by safer lights.\n\nA lot of people object to the word Christmas Tree and that it should be a Holiday Tree. The tree is a  symbol of Christmas, not Christianity, so its name should remain as is. Whether you believe in Christmas or not, its still a tree of Christmas :-)


How do people buy $450k plus houses? When they make less money than I do? (My household income is 130K)?

With $130K in household income, you should be able to buy a $450K house.  Your monthly income is $11K.  Lenders will lend you 80% of the value of your house, so $360K, so your monthly nut should be no more than $2,500.  The standard mortgage to income ratio that lenders look at is about 30%, so you are well within the range to get a loan.  Then, you have to cover the downpayment.  A lot of people borrow a higher percentage of the purchase price, like 90%.  Others borrow downpayment money from family, or have it from savings.  \n\nAnyway, with your income, you should be able to afford the house you are talking about.

well Chelsea win the english football league again?

They probably will win.  It appears all the major teams in England to contest Chelsea are on the decline (Arsenal, Man U) for the time being.  I suspect the reason they lead the group is that luck is on their side now which allows them to win games.  Overall, they are not much different than Chelsea of several years ago  even though they acquired more players.

what does "Library research in action" mean?

Information literacy is a skill that Librarians pioneered as journals, papers, books all came online. I understand this question as the function a librarian can play in solving any information 'gap' that clients need resolving. While not content experts, librarians have the skills to locate relevant information to users needs. They do this by utilising such practices as Meta-data, indexing, keyword brainstorming, problem identification, boolean searching, database identification, berry-picking, etc. The returned information can then be "actioned."

Is it bad to have sex while on your period.?

It's not bad in that it doesn't do any damage. You still can get pregnant if you have sex during your period. It's really a matter of preference. Some people (guys and girls) enjoy it because they may be more aroused during this time. On the other hands some people don't like it because it may feel gross or uncomfortable. So it's completely up to the individuals involved.


Why are there different languages in the world?

Languages evolve over time. Even though at one time there was only one language, as people move and are influenced by different things languages change. There are thousands of languages today and all of these languages will change or cease to exist eventually. \n\nThere are so many different areas of the Earth so there are many different languages for each area. The eskimos have there own language as do people in the South Pacific. Actually many of the South Pacific islands have their own unique language. \n\nSo to answer your question, there are many languages all over the world because languages are consantly evolving and often times they will evolve into other languages.

Am I responsible for abiding by a contract signed by one of my employees?

it depends on their contract..and urs....is the employee listed as a decision maker in the business?  this is on paper....if so....what is their contract like?  were they allowed to go up in price?  because a futures contract has to outline all those......and if it does, then u are stuck....but...if the person is not a decision maker, then the employee is at fault...so he will be the one who has to pay...but.at the same time..the judge will ask why you didnt cancel if you had 180 days?  well, more like 90 because the first 90 doesnt count...Especially if that person is not the decision maker...because you cannot just throw someone out to sign a contract..and when u dont like it, u say that he is not the person who is supposed to sign..judge wil see that as a way to get away from contracts...so, therefore,..you must read their contract...see what it says....if by chance you find something that showed that they were supposed to do..and didnt do..then u can stop the contract, for breach of contract...thats the only way out...other then that....u can throw the worker at fault...if and only if the person who signed is not a decision maker...and u might walk away almost unscathed....but, if the worker is..then the company has to honor it...and 900 dollars?  well, i dont know...depends on what claim...small claim?  what are they asking for in damages?  see...its all relative to your situation...


If we made a hollow sphere of two mirrror with the refelcting face inside and the transparent face out?

Dollar for dollar how does the government spend our money? What is the percentage of dollars paid-rich to poor

i agree!!\n\nEuthanasia (Greek: ευθανασία - ευ "good", θανατος "death") refers to assisted dying. The assistance ends the life of a person or an animal, in a painless or minimally painful way. Euthanasia is most often performed in a merciful way, in order to end suffering. This article discusses euthanasia in humans; a separate article covers animal euthanasia.\n\nThis topic is often highly-charged—emotionally, politically, and morally. Terminology and laws shift over time and geographically and globally, causing a great deal of confusion.\n\nFirstly there is some debate as to whether euthanasia refers to "letting die" or "allowing to die." (See terms: informed consent, decisional capacity, surrogate decision making, Living wills, Do Not Resuscitate) In the United States and the Netherlands, "letting die" or "allowing to die" refer to areas which the state consider ethically and legally acceptable and permissible. This includes the withholding and withdrawing of medical treatment such as dialysis or feeding tubes or hydration and nutrition. The last two being things which are associated with "love and caring" in most cultures. While the concept of holding off on those two things may be counterintuitive, as a body's major organ systems try to shut down, a dying person often feels most comfortable without any fluids or food. To do otherwise is like "force feeding" a body that does not "want" or need to be fed or hydrated, and doing so may actually cause physical discomfort and suffering.\n\nIn the UK this is usually only accepted when a newly born baby is born with certain physical or mental disorders.\n\nIn most other countries removing or denying treatment would usually be seen as murder. Usually, because in a growing number of law cases over the last 20 years, the jury has sided with the defendant.\n\nNext are several summary statements defining what euthanasia can include,. These are followed by expanded definitions of each. Euthanasia (assisted dying) may employ methods that are either indirect or direct. Indirect methods of euthanasia are defined by a individual him or herself taking the final step inducing death. Direct methods are defined by the involvement of others (clinicians) who take the final step inducing death. Direct euthanasia can either be voluntary, nonvoluntary or involuntary. (See Karl Binding and Alfred Hoche for one of the first uses of the three types of euthanasia.)\n\nIndirect euthanasia involves the indirect involvement of a clinician (e.g. physician, clinical nurse practitioner, pharmacist) as an agent who participates only by providing the means for a patient to induce his/her own death. This could mean writing or filling a prescription for medications in a quantity large enough to cause death when taken by the patient. This kind of assistance is currently legal in the American state of Oregon. It became legal in 1998 as a result of the "Death with Dignity Act" which was passed in the state in 1994. In politically and emotionally loaded terms, this is frequently referred to as physician-assisted suicide.\n\nDirect euthanasia involves the direct involvement of a clinician as agent in inducing a patient’s death. (e.g. administering a lethal drug by injection.) Direct euthanasia is not currently legal anywhere in the US, but both direct and indirect euthanasia are legal in Belgium and the Netherlands.\n\nVoluntary euthanasia occurs with the fully-informed request of a decisionally-competent adult patient or that of their surrogate (proxy). (Example: Thomas Youk, with ALS was assisted by Jack Kevorkian.)\n\nA large part of the controversy surrounding euthanasia focuses upon the slippery slope argument. The fear is that indirect euthanasia and/or voluntary direct euthanasia will lead to acceptance of the nonvoluntary and involuntary types of euthanasia.\n\nNonvoluntary euthanasia


why are there interstate highways on hawaii?

Hawaii's Interstate routes were an outgrowth of the statehood movement that culminated on March 18, 1959, when President Dwight D. Eisenhower signed legislation making Hawaii a State.\n\nThe decision to designate Interstate routes in Hawaii may become clearer by adding that the Interstate System is more than just a series of connected highways. It is also a design concept, with highways designed to handle high volumes of traffic safely and efficiently at freeway speeds. Moreover, the Interstate System is not limited to routes passing through two or more States. Many Interstates, such as circumferentials/beltways and spurs, are confined to one State.

What are some obstacles you may encounter when moving out of state?

Driver's and vehicle licensing, taxes - notify the IRS of your new address when you file, and your new residence may have income or sales tax (especially important if purchasing a vehicle) to be aware of.\n\nLocal slang or euphemisms should be noted - you wouldn't want to eat any rocky mountain oysters if you didn't know what they were (just one example). Look up CitySearch and Google / Yahoo Local listings for businesses you will need to use - it's better than throwing a dart at the phone book, since many times there are reviews and ratings of the different businesses.


Can I form an LLC in any state if I don't live there?

I have formed LLC, C, and S companies in Nevada, Delaware, and the countries of Panama and Dominica and I live in Phoenix. I have no corporations in Arizona. The simple answer to your question is, no you don't have to live where you incorporate. However, I would suggest that you not choose where based on cost, but instead base it on why are you incorporating? What state provides the greatest protection to your business model? Where do you pay fewer taxes for your type of revenue? Who will be your resident representative and what are the fees involved not just the state's price of incorporation.

Good luck, and if you're asking because you've chosen to stick by someone who is in a jam, Bless you!

One thing that you may want to do if you can not get a new cd unit at this time is trying to download the driver for it again.  Sometimes that is a fix.  I know a few years ago these type of problems use to happen when there was a virus, but the hackers and people who spread these virus around are not trying to get more of your data and cause more of an overall computer problem, than just a cd opening and closing.  Hope this helps.

can chirac go in jail after 2007 elections?

Technically he could.\nBut he would first need to be judged, proven guilty and condemned.\nEven by that stage, I don't think he would be jailed : he will be 75 when he loses his presidential status which means at least 76 or 77 when condemned which is pretty old to be put in prison.\nFurthermore, he might be able to count on his friends to come up with a law to protect him.


WHY DO PEOPLE ALWAYS ASSUME THEY KNOW EXACTLY HOW TO INTERPRET THE BIBLE AND GET DEFENSIVE ABOUT ANOTHER VIEW?

That is a great question. The word of God (the Bible) is progressively revealed to us over time as we walk with God by faith. Thus, what truth I had as a younger believer should be deepened and enriched over time and with experience.Some biblical truths transcend our opinions (i.e. the diety of Christ, His virgin birth, etc.) A saying that has always helped me is this: In opinions liberty, in essentials unity and in all things love.

what does hexadecimal mean and what is ASCII (speaking of wep passwords)?

HEX is a type of numbers for human to read computer numbers.\n\nThe very old old CPU in 90s is using 8 bit registers. (Now we are using 32 bits, Intel also have some 64 bits. I guess the next generation CPU will be 128-bit)  It has 4 bit in front, and 4 bit in the back of the register.  4 bit (binary, 4 digits, ex 1101) can be 15 at max (1111 binary= 15 in decimal number), that means, if a number is 16, then it needs go to another CPU register(1 0000 binary = 16 decimal). it is so hard and confused for us to read and do the caculation.  so we create Hex number. \nHex #s are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C, D, E,  and F. (A=10, B=11... F=15, note that F+1=10, 10 in Hex equals to 16 in decimal number). With HEX, it is much eaiser for us to do the caculation that CPU does.\n\n\nASCII = American Standard Code for Information Interchange. The ASCII are the keys and characters on your keyboard. Computer doesn't know what is A, B or C. It knows only number.  Every time you type a letter with your keybord, your keybord sends a number to the CPU, and the CPU convert it to a letter. For example, when you type the letter "A", the keyword sends the number "65" to the CPU, and the CPU will use the ASCII table to find out what letter 65 stands for and display it. (note 65 in decimal number in the ASCII is A, 66 is B, 67 is C, and so on)\n\nThere a lot of other machine characters that you can't type with your keyboard. But you can copy it from a non-ascii file. For example, .exe file, MS Excel file (Open these .exe and Excel file with Windows Notepad, you will see those charcters).

simple assault,criminal restraint. what does this mean..and does one need to appear in court in USA?

"Simple assault" is defined under the Model Penal Code: "A person is guilty of assault if he: (a) attempts to cause or purposely, knowingly or recklessly causes bodily injury to another; or (b) negligently causes bodily injury to another with a deadly weapon; or (c) attempts by physical menace to put another in fear of imminent serious bodily injury."\n\nI'm unfamiliar with the term "criminal restraint."  Perhaps it refers to the form of assault committed, that the defendant used bodily assaultive force to restrain an individual?  Your question is unclear.\n\nRegardless, the offense of simply assault usually requires a court appearance, since it is usually an offense greater than a mere payable misdemeanor.  The defendant would have to contact the court in the jurisdiction where the incident took place for specific information.

Winserv or Winsrv.  Yeah they are similar but they are completely different items.  Winserv is part of the IMISERV virus.

Do you think Hilary Clinton will run for president? Will she win? DO you want her to win?

If the polls say she might win the democratic ticket she'll run.  \n\nIf she goes up against a strong likable republican she won't stand a chance IMO.  People are ready to vote for a women though, just not her.  I'm pretty sure being a woman in charge is no longer a issue in this country from the men's point of view, as for women it's still a issue for sure.  Watch survior, the men don't care male/female but the women are all about beating the men still.  \n\nPersonally I'd like to see Leiberman against McCain. Why? Because I think they both have character and follow their heart not polls or ideologies.  \n\nNo I don't want her to win, but that's hard to say before you see the opponent.  I'll vote for the best choice on the ticket.

Actually in my experience staying well hydrated helps keep the mucous produced in your lungs thinner and easier to get rid of. If it's thick you'll have a harder time breathing because the mucous has blocked the airways. This is purely a preventative measure. \n\nIf you're having an asthma attack, drinking anything warm or room temperature can help, however as caffeine will help to dialate your airways, I've always used a hot Dr. Pepper/Coca-Cola or coffee.

Learning about Programming Data Structures?

If you are really serious about programming, you should learn about data structures and algorithms independent of a programming language. Languages come and go, but the underlying principals remain the same.\n\nThey are a little hard to read and you can't cut and past any examples, but the definitive references for data structures and algorithms are Donald Knuth's "The Art of Computer Programming," volumes 1, 2, and 3.

Christmas the word means the Christ Mass- a church service dedicated to Jesus Christ.  But that's only the meaning in the strictest sense of the word.  The celebration itself is over the birth of Jesus Christ, and that is what the day has been dedicated to.\n\nIn it's fullest sense, the "meaning" of the day is one of giving.  We celebrate God giving the very best He had for us- His own and only Son, to be given as a gift to us, that through His sacrifice for our sins, we can be forgiven and our relationship to God Himself can be restored and enjoyed.  The gifts that we give to others is but a symbol of the gift that God gave to us.  So the real meaning is of giving to others- especially those in need (as we were), and sacrificially, as He gave to us.

Do you think Bush's spying on U.S. citizens is legal?

"The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized."\n\nSo, according to the Fourth Amendment, no.  Considering Bush, illegality is no surprise.  This administration already detains "enemy combatants" indefinitely, tortures prisoners, uses Stalinist gulags in Eastern Europe, and leaks classified information on our own agents as a means of petty personal revenge.

What is the largest wave ever ridden by a surfer? When, where and by whom?

It depends on what you define as "riding a wave". There are "tow-in" sufers who rely on "jetskis" to tow them into waves. These waves are so large and travel so fast that it is impossible for a human-propelled board to match its speed. The traditionalist of the sport do not consider that truly "surfing the wave". There is a contest that awards, both the surfer and photographer a monetary award if they can produce a picture proving they rode the biggest wave. I do know in the past that a prize was awarded to a team capturing a picture at Todos Santos. \n\nPeahi aka Jaws, off of Maui is arguably the largest waves ridden. Check out the site below to get an idea of what monsters these guys are riding. Traditional surfing or tow-in, these waves are huge!!!!\n\nhttp://www.billabongxxl.com/06/index.asp?regid=NA

I want to learn a new programming language just for fun. Object-oriented not mandatory. Suggestions?

I'd suggest Ruby. Four reasons..\n\n1. It could turn into more than fun. While it's fun, there's a rapidly growing market for it, and you'd be ahead of the curve.\n\n2. It's simply a fun language. You can be really meta, override standard classes, and do all sorts of cool tricks. It's logical, yet extensible, and you can almost turn it into your own language.\n\n3. Most Ruby coders tend to be quite amusing and humorous.. for an example start reading the "Poignant Guide to Ruby" for an amusing comic-book-esque introduction to Ruby : http://poignantguide.net/ruby/\n\n4. You can start using Ruby right now, online! See: http://tryruby.hobix.com/

How do I secure Excel file from being deleted? I want the users to edit & save excel file but shouldn't delete

This cannot be done through Excel. If running WindowsXP or any NT OS you can set folder and file permissions. See OS Help on "permissions" and then select "File and Folder Permissions" Also look up "user Accounts" \n\nIf you could prevent the deletion of the workbook, you'd break the way excel works.\n\nWhen excel saves the file, it saves it as a temporary file with a funny name (8 characters--no extension).  \n\nIf the save is successful, xl will delete the original (or rename it to its backup name (like "backup of book1.xlk)) and if that's successful, xl will rename the funny named file to the original's name. \n\nSo I'm not sure you could ever accomplish what you want.

Which video card should I buy for my situation?

It's possible to do a dual-display setup with your computer but there are some things you should know.\n\n* AGP cards are exclusive so it definitely won't share with your on-board video.\n* Some systems are designed to disable on-board video when another video card is inserted (PCI or AGP).  It's hard to tell if your system will do that.\n\nNo problem though, you just need to buy a video card with two video outputs.  I'm familiar with nvidia cards and I know for certain that dual-display is supported in the software so any nvidia card would work as long as two VGA outputs are present on the card.  If you plan to connect to one CRT and one LCD with DVI connector, you can use this card then (see picture):\n\nhttp://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814121184\n\nIf you are doing two CRTs, however, you'll need something like this where they include a DVI-to-VGA adaptor:\n\nhttp://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814168002\n\nYou can also look for dual-VGA video cards like this one but I'm not familiar with ATI products and how easy it is to set it up:\n\nhttp://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814161150

what is the effect of the condensation in the steam generator?

Steam generators produce steam not condensation.  A steam generator (e.g., in a nuclear plant) generates steam that can be used to drive a steam turbine to generate mechanical or electric power.  The oldest systems (non-nuclear) discharged the steam wastefully to atmosphere.  In modern plants, exhaust steam from a steam turbine is directed to a steam condenser (where cooling water is used to condense the steam).  This allows the condensed water that must be highly pure and chemically treated to be reused by pumping it back to the steam generator.  More importantly, because the steam condenser reduces the turbine exhaust pressure well below atmospheric pressure, the steam is permitted to expand even more through the turbine blades extracting more power from the steam.  This greatly improves overall system efficiency by providing far more power from the energy expended to produce the steam.

There are other animals that have parietal  eyes.  These are fully functional eyes, and can account for 3 eys on lizards and other mamals; however the issue with these parietal eyes is that it is unknown how much one can see out of them because a scale/hair/skin grows over it.

Tiwanaku (old spellings: Tiahuanaco and Tiahuanacu) is an important Pre-Columbian archaeological site in Bolivia. Tiwanaku is recognized by Andean scholars as one of the most important precursors to the Inca Empire, flourishing as the ritual and administrative capital of a major state power for approximately five hundred years. The ruins of the ancient city state are near the south-eastern shore of Lake Titicaca, about 72 km (44 miles) west of La Paz, Bolivia.\n\nSome have hypothesized that Tiwanaku's modern name is related to the Aymara term "taypikala", meaning "stone in the center". However, the name by which Tiwanaku was known to its inhabitants has been lost, as the people of Tiwanaku had no written language

If I scuba in freshwater, at high altitude, am I still subject to the same atmospheric pressures as the ocean?

No, because the pressure at the surface will be less than 1 atm (or 1013 hPa). Pressure drops with altitude at a 100 hPa / 850 m ratio. Hence, if you dive at 1000 mt above sea level, pressure would be 778 hPa, = 0,77 atm at surface instead of 1 atm. Most diving computers have specific settings to calculate bottom times when diving at high altitudes. Check out a diving manual.

What is the difference between ethical and moral?

Both are about values and right and wrong, but ethical usually is more related to professional behavior where morality is more personal.  Government, to me, should act ethically.  When government gets "moral", I feel like they are taking on more personal beliefs.  As a government, I think we need to be ethical about right and wrong, as long as those definitions are universals instead of those related to a scripture.


how can i turn a pdf into an excel sheet?

It's painful. Open the PDF, Ctrl-A to select all, then Ctrl-C to copy. Open metapad (see below). Use Find/Replace to replace all spaces (" ") with tabs ("/t"). Then replace all incidences of two tabs ("/t/t") with one tab ("/t"). Keep doing that until it complains "Replaced 0 items".\n\nDelete everything you know you won't need in the spreadsheet. Ctrl-A to select all, ctrl-C to copy. Open up a new Excel spreadsheet, and Ctrl-V to paste.\n\nHopefully the result is NOT a hideous mess.

If you climax without having penetrating contact, is it still cheating?

Although I kind of agree with Tom up there, I have to say that the last statement was a bit harsh. Anyway, I'll say that "No!” you didn’t cheat but you’re skating mighty close. The fact that you didn't go into it with the exact intentions of doing anything wrong, you did stay into it after it became rather steamy. You should ask yourself that if your "live-in boyfriend" were to be in a similar incident what would you say and if you do something that you feel that you can't share with him ask yourself why. I'm sure you'll get the answer you’re looking for. So from now on leave the massages to little Korean women in small boutiques.

i filed bankruptcy. some creditors were left out by mistake. Now still have bad credit. what do i do now?

First off if you filed Bankruptcy and left out some creditors you must pay them back.  So you need to call them and set up a payment plan.  you need to get your credit score over 600 before anyone will talk to you about home ownership and to buy an $80,000 home you should try to have $15,000 in savings.  If you are a vet or can apply for a down payment grant you can get by with less, but even a zero down loan needs 3-5k for closing costs.

How do i find out how much aide i qualify for 2005/2006 school year.?

You will have to wait till when the deadline is over because how much you get depends on how many people apply and how much the state has.  And it is state, not government.  Because, out of state people get nothing from them.  So, its state.  And whatever the government kicks in for everybody, thats what they kick in.  No complaints because it was free money from the start anyways.  Um, usually you are covered because college students levels dont flunctuate in a year so funding is always about the same as what you got last year.  But, its different in the second year because youre not a clean slate anymore.  Some get good grades and some done.  I paid something every single year I was in college.  Not much thouhg.  Like 2 grand a year for everything.  During my 4th year, I became out of state.  So, instead of 10,500, it was 18,000 for the full package.  As it turns out, the state wanted me to stay because I was becoming a top student, being mentored by a rhodes scholar nominee and all.  So, I paid nothing.  And I got 91 dollars back.


Corresponding to each kind of particle, there is an associated antiparticle with the same mass and spin. Some particles, such as the photon, are identical to their antiparticle; such particles must have no electric charge, but not all charge-neutral particles are of this kind. The laws of nature were thought to be symmetric between particles and antiparticles until CP violation experiments found that time-reversal symmetry is violated in nature. The observed excess of baryons over anti-baryons in the universe is one of the primary unsolved problems in cosmology.


Who was the most sincere President of the USA??

Jimmy Carter by far. When he was talking about saving energy in the 70s, he actually had the thermostat in the White House turned down to levels that the staff lamented. He also repeatedly said that he would not negotiate with terrorists ... and then didn't, which actually paved the way to a Reagan victory. (Reagan, of course, went on to negotiate covertly for the release of our hostages in Iran.) Carter was honest to the point of self-sabotage.

How can I get my teenage son to do better in school and be more motivated?

start using your vacation time and spend a day out of a week as a volunteer in your son's classes.  if he says he has no homework, look at his text books and make some worksheets for him to help him study?  remove the TV from his bedroom.  Use your lunch breaks everyother week to pay his teachers a visit and find out if he is lying about school work.  find out what his homework is from the teachers, they can email you reports once a week.  then ask to see the finished homework you know your son has, because the email said he had homework every night after dinner.

Can you be pregnant and not have sore breast?

Yes.  While that is a sign of pregnancy, it is not necessarily always present.  "You may be one of the women who have only slight symptoms or no symptoms of breast changes in pregnancy. Don't panic.

If United States translates to Estados Unidos, why is EEUU used in latin countries?

In Spanish, when words are plural, the abbreviation is doubled.  What makes Estados Unidos plural is the "s" in the end.  If the United States was called Estado Unido, then the abbreviation would be E.U.  But instead, it is EstadoS UnidoS, making it E.E.U.U.


I have good ideas for some inventions. How would I go about submitting these ideas to a company?

You can protect your idea by filing a provisional claim with the USPTO. This is kind of like a "patent lite" and allows you to protect the product for up to a year.  The cost is US$200 and should be done straight away. Visit the PTO website for information on filing applications electronically. \n\nAfter that, prepare yourself for a tremendous uphill battle. If this is a design patent (i.e. a new form of an existing product), you will find it difficult to locate interested buyers. If this is a utility patent (a new product or process), you will need to find companies within the industry and see if they are interested. \n\nYou will want to get a hold of a standard NDA/NC (Non-Disclosure Agreement / Non-Compete). These are fairly boilerplate and should be easy to locate on the 'net. Requiring NDA's is STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURE when shopping around an idea and manufacturers are generally comfortable signing them. If a manufacturer refuses to sign, WALK AWAY. There is something wrong. An NDA is no guarantee that a company won't steal your idea, but at least it provides evidence of due dilligence during any potential infringement lawsuit.\n\nSearch the various government department websites for grant applications. The government is always looking to foster the development of new ideas that can potentially benefit the nation. There are grants for both non-profit and for-profit company's available and some even include grants for "concept development and R&D". \n\nBarring that, you may want to consider some form of rapid prototyping. Depending on the invention idea, this could be a short production run of the product, some kind of stereo lithography or other RP, or a "proof of concept" 3-D model, engineering analysis, etc. Having a physical, working prototype that a potential buyer can see, touch and interact with is FAR more impressive than a napkin sketch. Be prepared to spend $1-10K on a prototype. Well worth the investment, because if a picture is worth 1,000 words, a prototype is worth 1,000,000.\n\nGood Luck!

Is there website for free reverse address checking service?


what is bluetooth and how do you make it work.?

Bluetooth is a telecommunications industry specification that describes how mobile phones, computers, and personal digital assistants (PDAs) can be easily interconnected using a short-range wireless connection. Using this technology, users of cellular phones, pagers, and personal digital assistants can buy a three-in-one phone that can double as a portable phone at home or in the office, get quickly synchronized with information in a desktop or notebook computer, initiate the sending or receiving of a fax, initiate a print-out, and, in general, have all mobile and fixed computer devices be totally coordinated. \nBluetooth requires that a low-cost transceiver chip be included in each device. The tranceiver transmits and receives in a previously unused frequency band of 2.45 GHz that is available globally (with some variation of bandwidth in different countries). In addition to data, up to three voice channels are available. Each device has a unique 48-bit address from the IEEE 802 standard. Connections can be point-to-point or multipoint. The maximum range is 10 meters. Data can be exchanged at a rate of 1 megabit per second (up to 2 Mbps in the second generation of the technology). A frequency hop scheme allows devices to communicate even in areas with a great deal of electromagnetic interference. Built-in encryption and verification is provided. \n\nThe technology got its unusual name in honor of Harald Bluetooth, king of Denmark in the mid-tenth century.\nOpen your control panel and find the "System" icon.Afterwards, find the "Device Manager" under "Hardware." After that, simply search for the infrared device. It will be easy to find from there if you have one. (Most especially if you are running Windows XP, but this will work with any os.)

I need to start a high carbohydrate diet what are carbohydrateswhat types of foods do you eat?

Carbohydrates are the main food source for many animals. \n\nIt's pretty easy to get a lot of carbohydrates. I would suggest focusing your diet on complex carbohydrates as they tend to be in sources with more fiber. Examples are oatmeal, whole wheat bread/pasta/etc., and starchy vegetables.\n\nLook on the "Nutrition Facts" label on foods to see their carbohydrate content.


Which ED drug is considered most effective?

What's the best way to tell someone is lying to you?

They will avert their eyes or fidget, They will also have to spend longer thinking about a lie and either provide too much detail of non at all.\nThe best thing to do is to observe them and the way they act while you know they are not lying. Then when they do lie it will be obvious to you.


Which is better operating system, Macintosh or Windows for a desktop computer.?

It depends on what kind of work you do.  It would be better to choose Windows if you do office work, check email, browse the internet, and play pc games.  Macs are known for their easy interface for tasks such as home movie editing.  In the past, the two systems had major compatiblity issues but now it is easy to transfer files between the two systems.  I would either buy a Windows desktop right away or might wait another month for a Mac system.  Apple will release new computers next month that run on Intel processors.  These computers might be able to run Mac OS X and Windows.

Evolution - what's your take on it? why should i trust it?

Evidence for evolution:\n\nHomologous proteins\nThe near universality of the genetic code (eg the relation between codons and amino acids)\nGenetic drift in non-essential parts of homologous proetiens\nDNA technology that can show relationship\nDevelopmental homology (ie ontogeny and it's relationship to phylogeny)\n\nThe interesting thing about most of these points of evidence is that it was predicted by Darwin's theory even though Darwin had no way of knowing about genes or biochemistry at all.  Evolution as a theory is merely commonality of descent, and this evidence here is all evidence of evolution.  It doesn't necessarily say that evolution is directed by natural selection, and it certainly doesn't say anything about the origin of life itself or God.  But in experimental science, we can see evolution occuring, and natural selection is one of the major ways of that evolution (the other being artificial selection).\n\nSo when you take the reality of evolution--that is, the commonality of descent amoung all living things--as supported by a great deal of evidence, and you look for possible ways of directing that evolution, natural selection is the only theory that expalins it with existing observable phenomena.\n\nIf you have a better way of explaining it with existing observable phenomena, and it fits all known data better than Darwin's evolution by natural selection, then by all means, let's hear it.  Otherwise, you're objection is not to just evidence, but to SCIENCE ITSELF and the SCIENTIFIC METHOD.  And I'm very sorry, but this method has been for too useful to abandon right now.\n\nYou have a complaint with science and think you have a better way?  I'd like to hear it.  OItherwise, you must face the reality that as of today evolution is an indispensible part of the scientific body of knowledge, along with Newton's descriptions of dynamics, Maxwell's electromagnetic principles, the three laws of thermodynamics, and Mendel's theories of genetic sorting.

cannot get power on switch to work. Can't tell when hp is on. no light?

you can hear when computer is on - there's fan, and hard drive. Plus disk light on the front.\n\nIf you turn the switch and nothing happens:\n- make sure there's no second switch on the back of computer.\n- make sure there's power in the socket  - plug desk lamp into it. If lamp works, and computer doesn't, either power cable is busted, or computer's power unit. Cable can be bought, power unit can be replaced in a shop.\n\nSometime monitor or printer uses same power cable - if it does, use it to see if that's the problem.
