Sometimes I wana keep my laptop on overnight but it gets way to hot and overheats is there any solution?

Contact DELL and ask for a replacement!!! This seems like a safety-hazard issue and I am sure these issues should be dealt with a replacement only.


Do you worry that there are hidden cams out there watchin you?

Sometimes, it's kind of creepy. When I go to public restrooms, I'll usually do a quick check for holes in the wall like I saw people do on tv. In most places there are unhidden cameras, and even though I'm not doing anything out of the normal, it still makes me a bit uneasy.

how do i copy a dvd movie to my computer?

FYI-\nDoing so violates the DMCA and is illegal.\n\nYou first need to 'rip' the DVD. That means decrypt the  embded security. There are applications on the internet that do this.\n\nThen you need to compress the data to make it fir a standard 4.7 gig disk OR use a Double Layer disk.  Again, there are shrinking applications.\n\nThen you burn.\n\nRip, Compress, Burn. That is it.\n\nBut remember, stealing copyrighted works is illegal.


What does it take to immigrate to Australia if you are over the age od 48.?


If you have spoken to the principal and a representative at the central office I would next go to a school board meeting and sign up to be on the agenda. Most school board meetings are public and have a sort of open mike portion where parents and other community members can be heard. If that doesn't work I would call the State Department of Education and find out who investigates unprofessional practice in schools. In my state it is an independent commission called the professional practices commission and a link to it is required by law to be on the front page of the State Department of Education Web Site. Good luck. The other advice you have been given is pretty good too. Another important resource is the Office of Civil Rights (OCR) of the Federal Department of Health and Human Services. They will take you very seriously.


No, if you are big, it doesnt mean u have to scold everyone

Weight-gain vs. weight of item consumed?

I'm not a dietician, but I would imagine - initially - you'll have a 3-ounce weight gain since you physically consumed the food.  However, your body will break the food down, obtain the nutrients from it, and use it for your body's basic metabolic functions.  \n\nWeight gain comes from intaking more food than your body needs to thrive.  Weight loss comes from obtaining your ideal caloric intake to maintain your current weight, and lower the overall daily calories.

How do i get a government grant to research alternate forms of energy?

it depends on where you live.  i assume you are in the US.  there are several federal agencies that fund alternative energy research.  the answer to your question largely depends on what kind of energy technology you are looking to research - wind, solar, biomass, fuel cells, whatever.\n\nyou should check out this page:  http://www.eere.energy.gov/financing/  where you can learn about the federal grant process.\n\nyou will probably have to write a grant proposal that outlines the merits of your research goals, an outline of the specific steps your research will take, your qualifications and why your project deserves funding.  \n\nquite frankly, you will be competing with very highly-qualified, experienced and specialized researchers from universities and corporations, and unless you have an incredibly brilliant and specific idea, the scientific knowledge to make it happen and considerable money of your own to spend (the grants typically only cover part of the cost of the research - the researcher's institution or other grants are supposed to cover the rest)... then you can expect to be weeded out very early on.\n\nhave heart though!  if you're just a guy with an idea who likes to tinker in his basement or whatever, they offer a program for you!  called the inventions and innovation program:  http://www.eere.energy.gov/inventions/  it's geared for small projects and independent research.  don't expect to get much, but if you have a good idea you may be lucky.  \n\nother government agencies can possibly provide grants, too.  consider the national science foundation (http://www.nsf.gov/) or the national renewable energy laboratory (NREL) (http://www.nrel.gov/) for other grant options.\n\ngood luck!

What are some funny double-meaning words?

This may be a little off in terms of funny but it is funny/odd. We all have heard the "f" word before & know that the term "f... you" is commonly used as a deragatory term, right? Do you, however, know what it means or where it comes from?\n\nWell, in the past, when people would go to confession, the phrase, "For Unsanctioned Carnal Knowledge" was written into the book where you would list your sins. That phrase means for knowledge of another outside the bonds of marriage, of course. Over time, the phrase was shortened to the word that some people hurl at each other in nasty ways today. Just think, you are mad at someone & cuss at them when, in reality, you are wishing them a VERY good time!\n\nThought you all might find it comical...I know WAY too many odd tidbits of information!

Plants are green because they contain a green pigment called Although only found in plants, it is very similar in structure to haemoglobin - the red pigment of our blood. chlorophyll. Mg Fe chlorophyll haemoglobin Chlorophyll allows plants to capture sunlight and is used to power chemical reactions to make food. This process is called and during it, chlorophyll captured packets of light energy (called photons) are used by the plant to convert carbon dioxide and water to make sugar and also importantly for us, oxygen. photosynthesis\n\nThere are so many plants and therefore so much chlorophyll on the earth\nthat it is possible to tell what season of the year it is from space. Notably, what we cannot tell from satellite pictures is that most of the chlorophyll is found in the sea within 'freeliving' plants called algae. Winter Summer The sugar is then transported from the leaves, modified and stored in other parts of the plant. These parts are frequently the ones we eat such as seeds or grains and tubers. Nearly all plants are green and therefore contain chlorophyll, apart from a few parasitic plants. Some plants also have variegated leaves - parts of the leaf which contain chlorophyll are green whereas other parts contain no chlorophyll and are therefore white or yellow.


In the history of science, the scientific revolution was the period that roughly began with the discoveries of Kepler, Galileo, and others at the dawn of the 17th century, and ended with the publication of the Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica in 1687 by Isaac Newton. These boundaries are controversial, with some claiming that the proper start of the scientific revolution was the publication of De revolutionibus orbium coelestium by Nicolaus Copernicus in 1543, while others wish to extend it into the 18th century.\n\nThe seventeenth century was a period of major scientific change. But at that time the word "science" did not have its current meaning, and "scientist" had not been coined; Newton was called a natural philosopher. Not only were there major theoretical and experimental developments, but even more importantly, the way in which scientists worked was radically changed. At the beginning of the century, science was highly Aristotelian; at its end, science was mathematical, mechanical, and empirical.\n\nAbout 1600, Ideas and People who emerged:\n\n    * Uniform acceleration of falling bodies (Galileo)\n    * Inertia and inertial frames of reference\n    * The Earth as a magnet\n    * Theory of lenses\n    * Kepler's laws of planetary motion (Kepler), coupled with Copernicus' publication of Concerning the Revolutions of the Celestial Spheres.\n    * Telescopic discoveries: moons of Jupiter, lunar mountains, phases of Venus, etc. (Galileo)\n    * Laws of hydrostatics\n    * Constant period of the pendulum (Newton)\n    * Andreas Vesalius (1514-1564) published On the Fabric of the Human Body (1543), which discredited Galen's views. He found that the circulation of blood resolved from pumping of the heart. He also assembled the first human skeleton from cutting open cadavers.\n    * William Harvey (1578-1657) solved how blood circulates via disections.\n    * Tycho Brahe and Johannes Kepler searched for understanding of the stars. Although the Danish Brahe rejected the Copernican belief that the earth revolved around the sun, his assistant Kepler, a German, proved that Copernicus' theory had validity. He established, using trigonometry and geometric algebra, laws of planetary motion.\n    * William Gilbert (1544-1603), an English scientist, published a book describing the magnet in 1600.\n    * Sir Francis Bacon (1561-1626), whose greatest scientific experiment amounted to stuffing snow into a dead chicken, nevertheless penned inductive reasoning, proceeding from observation and experimentation. This contrasted with Rene Descartes who took a more theoretical approach to science.\n    * Galileo was tried for his belief of the Copernican system because he lived in Italy, a Catholic state at the height of an inquisition that prosecuted heresy. Because the pope was a personal friend of Galileo's, he fortunately escaped death and instead lived the rest of his life in house arrest if he chose to renounce his support for Copernicus's views, which he did. He is perhaps best known for his law of falling bodies, which he proved not only theoretically through a thought experiment, but also through experimentation, uniting both the inductive observational part of science with the theoretical and logical branch.\n    * René Descartes(1596-1650) and Isaac Newton(1642-1727): Descartes pioneered Deductive reasoning, publishing in 1637 Discourse on Method. He is widely known for issuing the statement, "I think, therefore I am" (Cogito, ergo sum). Newtonian Synthesis, on the other hand is built upon Kepler, Galileo and Descartes--Newton believed that scientific theory should be coupled with rigid experimentation. Newton postulated the theory of Universal Gravitation. Newton became a wealthy hero--knighted by the king and elected to Parliament in 1689 representing Cambridge University. However, Newton did clash with Goetfried Leibniz on various issues, including who first invente

How to get a respectable English teaching certificate?

Do you want to teach English the language, or English Literature?  Where?\n\nIn California, US, to get a single subject teaching credential in English, you need a BA in English or you need to pass the appropriate English equivolency exam.  You also need to pass the CBEST.  You must also take some other courses to get your credential.  \n\nMy advice is to contact the education department of a local university and ask what other guidelines there are, as they vary by location.

okay the whole birth control is wrong argument is lame. It is like saying, dont wear a seatbelt its stupid, if you dont want to die, dont drive, god will decide if you are to die. Anyway, I use several birth control methods, hormonal, spermicide and a good old condom. I use the nuva ring, which is great because it is inserted into the vagina and releases a constant stream of hormones for 3 weeks until you take it out. It is nice because with the pill, it has to be taken at the same time daily in order to maintain consistant coverage. I also use the vaginal foam, which helps kill the spem in case of accidental condom breakage. But no method is 100% If you are having sex there is always the risk of becoming pregnant.\n\nAnd FYI, birth control doesnt KILL a fertilized baby, it prevents the act of fertilization from occuring by having hormones that dont allow for a "fertilizable egg" to be produced, or preventing sperm from fertilizing an egg by either killing them with spermicide or blocking them from coming into contact with an egg.\n\nHonestly, are some of you for real?!?!?!?

what exercise burns the most fat and colories? What food burns the most fat?

1) No food burns fat, except on those late-night infomercials!\n\n2) You burn CALORIES not FAT.  While it is true that intense exercise burns the most calories AND the most fat, it is hard to maintain for long periods.  Low to moderate aerobic exercise such as running, walking, cycling, XC skiing etc are good long-duration calorie burners.\n\nThere is a misunderstanding that lower intensity workouts burn more fat.  Not true, they burn a greater PERCENTAGE of fat.  At higher intensities you burn more glycogen and less fat.  Either way you are more concerned with the number of CALORIES you burn.  Fat is essentially stored calories.\n\nThe important thing is to choose an exercise you ENJOY and can do often.  If you hate the workout, it just ain't gonna happen.

Why do i do bad things when i know theyre bad, but i cant stop?

Things like that sometimes seem easy to do, and get away with, but the repercussions can be burdensome.  Also, they tend to glue you into a mindset and a lifestyle that may not be the best for your future.  Putting yourself into active things, oftentimes using your body instead of your mind, is a good way to lose those feelings that can creep up on you and tempt you.  A job, a hobby, a group, frienships, family time, are all good avenues.  Sometimes leaving a situation you are in is a viable alternative, with friends, groups, etc.  Life is not perfect, so finding a way to not feel totally out of whack when they happen can keep you level-headed.  Forgiveness also keeps you from feeling like your carrying the load around with you.  Also, the take some of that edge that we all fell like we are the most important thing around, and putting more selflessness, doing things for others even when you might not feel like it, can adjust your attitude toward feeling less alone.  Guard your mind, what you put in it, or what you allow others to put in it, because this will affect how you think, and what you think about.  Positive action is often the best thing for emotions that want to burst.  How you act affects how you think, and vice-versa.  In time, they become more a part of what you are and, hopefully, what you want to ideally become.  Keep a your head up.  Best to you!

What are two situations in which measurements have an unlimted number of significant figures ?

Please be more specific. I'll answer by assuming a couple things.\n\nOne situation is when you can count something without having to measure to a certain accuracy. For example, one balloon, one sandwich, etc. In that case, the integer has infinite number of significant digits.\n\nAnother situation is when you use numbers from theories and measurement conversions. For exmaple, in chemistry, 2 moles of hydrogen combined with 1 mole of oxygen creates 2 moles of dihydrogen monoxide. These integers of the balanced chemical equation has infinite number of significant digits so 2 moles can be 2.000000000..... moles. Also, when converting measurements, let's say from liters to millimeters, there are 1000 millimeters in a liter. The 1000 is said to have an infinite number of significant digits. When you do calculations, the 1000 does not factor into the number of significant digits of the outcome.

What is the relation between IQ and school performance?

Uneven. \n\nThomas Edison said  genius was 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration. Most teachers will tell you the same thing, or quote him.\n\nSmart students tend to get better grades than dull ones, but lots of smart students get bored or lazy and flunk. Dull students with good work ethics can succeed. The kids in the middle can go either way.\n\nA good work ethic and the ability to focus on a subject for long periods of time are much better indicators of scholarly success than a high IQ.\n\nExactly how long you have to focus depends on the problem; a word problem in algebra may take 10 minutes, a Ph. D. thesis 10 months.

How can you tell if your penis is circumsized or not?

The Penis "Head" is covered with foreskin. The entire Penis looks like one big piece of d--k. You have to hold the Penis with one hand,and pull back the skin with the other,and if then,you see the head,(you do know what that looks like-don't you?),then you ARE NOT circumcised. If you can see the head,without pulling back the foreskin,then YOU ARE circumcised. If you are not circumcised,then you should always pull back the foreskin,to wash the head,or "Smegma"(a slimy substance that accumulates there),can cause all sorts of sexually transmitted diseases. You should also wear a condom,until you can get circumcised. (PS) Talk to your parents about getting the surgery ASAP.

What is the difference between the sun and a planet?????????

Twertyto's answer is the best! When I was just learning about astronomy I asked the same question. Someone told me a very simple answer that just might work for you:  A planet reflects light and a star creates it. That sounds simple enough for simpler times! But now welcome to the 21st century!!!\nBrown dwarfs are kind of the "animal" that bridges these two seemingly different objects. Astronomy is having a hard (but fun) time right now trying to decide exactly what a planet is- from the very large to the very small. Is an object 75 times the size of Jupiter a planet? 79 times? 81 times? No one seems to know. Do we call them planets or officially name them Brown Dwarfs. On the other side of the issue, is Pluto a planet? They just discovered a larger than Pluto object and several almost-the-size-of-Pluto objects out past Pluto's orbit. Are all of these planets? If Pluto's not a planet, but now has been discovered to have at least 3 moons (two new one's were just discovered recently), then what do we call it? \nThis has been a surprisingly tough answer for Astronomers as well, so not only is it a great question, but you- and everyone else- might have to stick around for a while for the difinitive answer!!!

Is there any company that could help solder a chip for me to a key? I am doing project for school.?

First off your majoring in Eletrical engineering. You need to know how to solder. I would HIGHLY recommend you learn it. Go down to radio shack pick up a 4 dallor soldering iron and some solder.  And a few project boards and some wire. and Start practicing. I had to learn to solder because there was things I always needed to fix. Growing up learned it from my dad growning up and he went to college for eletrical engineering. My mom even knows how to solder and she didn't go to college. Paying someone to do it for you is not going to teach you how to do it.


Constrution and working of voltage regulator?

You'll need to provide a little more information in order to have your question answered properly.  AC or DC? Input voltage?  Fixed or variable output voltage? If variable, over what range?

Blood.  When you eat blood moves from other areas of your body including your head to go to the stomach to aid in the digestion of your food, you may also spike your blood sugar thus causing drowsiness in some people.  It's good to go for a short walk after eating to get your metabolism up and aid in the digestion process as well.  Don't plop in a chair and let those calories stew inside of you.


if a person bumps the volleyball,even though it's out,will it hurt the team's points?

It is counted as a regular bump, thus it will not hurt your points. It would have given you points, however. It is common when a ball is bumped by a team into their own out-of-bounds for a team to bump their ball back into in-bounds so that it stays in play.

How fast must a train go for the Doppler effect to put all mobile phones out of action?

Interesting question.  Any electromagnetic wave moves at the speed of light (following tradition use the symbol c), and since nothing can move faster than c (nothing carrying information anyway) the waves from a cellphone on a moving train would all be moving away from the user at the speed c.\n\nHowever, this does not mean that the train would need to be moving at the speed of light in order to render a cellphone useless.  The doppler effect still applies (though the formulas for relativistic doppler shifts are different than those of sound).  Since the train is moving, we'll call the person using the phone on the train a source.  All one would need to answer the question is what frequency the source emits and what band of frequencies that the detector can use.  When the train is moving at such a speed as to shift the frequency of the source out of a detectable range (e.g. when it's moving toward the detector the frequency will be too high, or away, too low), the cellphone will not work.  One thing to mention, although the train will not need to be moving AT the speed of light, it will probably need to be moving faster than any of the trains you or anyone else has seen!

tag delimiters, since they indicate the start & end of tags, i.e., they delimit the tag which is inside the delimiters.\n\nWhen parsing a document for delimiters, this activity is called tokenizing and is based on delimiters.

Gauge it based on who exactly you're talking to.\n\n1. If you get a call from a recorded voice saying "I have an important call for you...please hold.", that's grounds for an immediate hang-up.\n\n2. If it's a legitimate business that called you and you want to speak with them and they put you on hold, I'd wait no more than 5 minutes on hold.\n\n3. If it's a business you called and they put you on hold, wait as long as is appropriate given the importance of the call.  For example, if you're doing a phone interview for a job, I would not hang up.\n\n4. A personal call from a friend or relative warrants no hang-up at all.

Why does the US need ground troops in Iraq?

The people at Halliburton need American soldiers on the ground to protect the oil wells.\n\nWe have to put up with this because the crazy christians who voted for President Bush are more concerned about preventing abortions and gay marriage than the lives of American soldiers.\n\nRepublican voters are willing to pay a lot.

This is the way to heaven, according to the Bible


How can I tell if a girl actually wants to have sex and is not just joking around or talking dirty?

Physical is usually a good indicator. If she's right up against you or making some motion while talking dirty, or whatever she does, may be it. Try a small touch like start kissing her, as she permits, touch her on her lower back, caress her cheek (face cheek!!!), if she responds well, maybe try a little further. Just don't up the ante too much.


How long does it take for a broken ankle to heal.  Out of the casts?

after reading for a while , i cannot remember what i've read?

you can take notes, just summerize the main ideas of each paragraph or page or chapter depending on how much information your reading. for example, if your reading a 1,000 page book, most people won't remember everything that happened, so the solution is to take notes on maybe each chapter or take note of important things that happened. you can use a graphic organizer or something else to take note of important things in the book.

Can a trustee, legally act as owner of a property owned by a trust?

You question needs more information in order to allow us to effectively answer it.  Generally speaking, a trustee is going to make the decisions that an owner would until the person or organization for whom the trust was established is capable (legally, chronologically, and/or mentally) of assuming that control himself/itself.  For the most part, the answers to these types of questions should be on the face of the document(s) creating the trust in the first place.  Consult your attorney if you think a trustee is self-dealing (ignoring its fiduciary duty to you while creating an advantage to itself--to your detriment).


Many colleges offer English classes that include grammar lessons.  Using proper grammar is one of the hallmarks of a well-educated individual.\n\nYou learn so much about how to learn, abstract thinking, and other advanced topics in college just from the experience in general that I would consider it a requirement, assuming you are physically able to go.  It is a great experience.

Edison Carter was one of the main characters in the science fiction television series Max Headroom. A hard-hitting reporter for Network 23, he sometimes came close to uncovering things that his superiors in the network would've preferred to keep private. Eventually, one of these instances required him to flee his workspace, and an accident in so doing caused him to become injured, upon which his brain was downloaded, giving birth to the character Max Headroom._______Oops,must have both copied and pasted from the same site.

how can electromagnetic waves be diverted or stoped or can be focused to some specific direction.?

This is intuitive if you remember that light is an example of an electromagnetic wave.  \n\nA lens can focus electromagnetic waves, and mirrors can divert them.  They can be 'stopped' by being absorbed into something, and many materials will absorb electromagnetic waves (like skin, that absorbs light, and therefore warms up and gets tan in sunlight).


What is the best way to clean house without feeling regret of throwing things away?

If you havent used the item in 2 years, you can probably do without it. Ebay is great for stuff like that. You'll find that if you throw this stuff away you will never miss it. And of all the stuff you toss, its more worth it to have a clean, unmessy house and buy what you need when necessary than to have a house full of junk. It clutters the mind as well as the house!

All right, we have four unknowns: the weight of Person A's luggage (we'll call x), the weight of person B's luggage (we'll call y), the cost per pound of luggage that the Bullet-Train charges (we'll call C), and the weight of luggage that the Bullet Train doesn't charge for (this is what you're looking for; we'll call it W).  Using these variables we can set up four equations:\n\nFirst the total weight of the two passengers' luggage is 100 pounds\n\nx + y = 100\n\nWe also know that the two passengers' luggage together (deducting the complimentary weight) costs $12 + $8\n\n(x + y - 2z) * C = 12 + 8\n\nand if we only deduct the complimentary weight once\n\n(x + y - z) * C = 30  <-- this is if only one person carries the weight on the train.\n\nWe can combine these equations to get\n\nz * C = 10\n\nNow, we have two independent equations and four unknowns.\n\nNext, we split up the two passengers.\n\nSo the weight passenger A is carrying (x) minus the complimentary weight (z) times the cost per pound is the charge for passenger A ($12)\n\n(x - z) * C = 12\n\nSimilarly for Passenger B\n\n(y - z) * C = 8.\n\nNow you have everything you need.  If you solve the last two equations for C and set them equal to each other after inserting your expression for z * C, you'll have an equation with x and y only.  You then combine that equation with the very first, and you can solve for x and y.  Knowing those you can solve for C and z.\n\nIf you have any questions, e-mail me at FroggyJ5@yahoo.com\n\nAnswers : \n\nx = 55 lb.\ny = 45 lb.\nC = $0.4/lb.\nz = 25 lb.

No, but it would be nice to see him in concert

If I buy a condo and my girl friend lives there with me, should she help pay? If so, for what?

I had the same problem with a guy that moved in with me. I wanted him to pay some rent to me, along with half utilities and groceries. It seemed only fair since with my school and work schedule he was there more than I was. He always complained and still does afterwards about how he paid part of my mortgage, but seriously, had he lived anywhere else he would have had to pay rent too. We ended up breaking up about a year later for various reasons, but the one thing I was definitely happy I did was to make him pay his way. Honestly, you should really look at it as a roommate situation and not a girlfriend situation. Would you let one of your friends live with you for free? Or even a complete stranger, which happens many times if you're looking for a roommate in a new city? Although I know my boyfriend at the time was a little resentful that I asked him to pay some rent to me, I'm glad I did. So yeah, I would talk to her and work out a reasonable payment she could make to you for rent, then still charge her for utilities. A good way to do it is to sit down and determine what kind of an income she will have and talk about a reasonable number that she will be able to afford without hating you later. As for her parents, they need to stay out of it. If they want their little girl to live somewhere for free, tell them to open up their basement to her. Shes a big girl, in or out of college, and it is about time they let her do her thing. And since it is your condo, they have absolutely no say in how much you charge her or for that matter any thing about your finances. Anyway, I hope you work it out. Good luck!

i will finish my university next year, i want continue study about MBA,what university is the best?

If you're planning on getting your MBA, you'll probably have to have some work experience first before you are admitted to the best schools in the U.S.  You should check out the Wall Street Journal, they do a yearly survey of the best MBA schools.  More recently it's been the business school at Dartmouth, but as said before you'll need a top GPA and excellent work experience.

do u have any info on polyneural innervations of arthropod muscle?

if I remember correctly, most arthropod muscles are innervated by at least two neurons, an excitatory neuron and an inhibitory neuron. Most of the time you also have a third neuron which releases neuromodulators - those can make a reaction to e.g. an excitation be stronger or last longer. So all arthropod muscles are innervated by at least two different neurons (there may be a few exceptions around, but not many)


stats on internet protocols usage - what are the percentages associated with http, smtp, dns, etc.?

Types of Computers  \n(mainframes, minicomputers, and microcomputers)\n\nAnalog and digital. (Hybrid computers combine elements of both types.) \n\nIn our everyday use, the term "computer" refers to digital computers, with a typical example being the common personal computer (PC). Digital computers are essentially simple machines that can understand and manipulate only series of elementary symbols: 0's and 1's (yes or no, true or false). \n\nToday's computers are of three main types: mainframes, minicomputers, and microcomputers. They differ in size, speed of operation, amount of data that can be stored, and the number of simultaneous users. Mainframes allow many simultaneous users, handle typically huge databases, and can perform complex mathematical operations. We find them mainly in industry, research, and university computing centers.


When you're sad or depressed why do you feel worse at night?

humans are naturally light-loving creatures. I forget the scientific name, but it's true. you might notice the same attitude if it is cloudy or raining. I forget what the disorder is called, but my mom has the same thing. some of us are more sensetive to the seasons than others in the fact that we can react more dramatically when the sun goes down or is not present. I would recommend turning all the lights on and curling up w/ a good book so you can forget that it is dark outside. put a poster or picture in your room that is of a sunny beach filled with palm trees. Brighten up your surroundings. Today it is cloudy and I was feeling kinda low, so I went and tanned for a few minutes and I feel ten times better. Its all about changing your surroundings to compensate for your grumpies. good luck!


What is the best FREE website creation software?


how much money do i need to retire comfortably?

Start by contacting a financial planner in your area. Most don't charge for an initial consultation. They are in it for the long run. You don't have to have a lot to go get advice on financial planning. The sonner you start the better. Don't include Social Security in your retirement funds. Even if it is still around, it won't scratch the surface of your needs. And with all the Government regulations being put on it, I doubt if you get a chance to realize the benefit of it. Start by maxing out your 401k contributions. Then take a look at savings bonds or municiple bonds. If your into having some fun, try playing the stock market. Personally, not something I have time to learn. For a relatively small fee, I can have people alot more anal than myself invest for me. usually, their fees compared to an average annual profit is a really good bargan.

What devices reduces the amount of collisions on a network?

Devices that put all traffic on the same 'segment' causes collisions, like a Hub.\nDevices that segement traffic into virtual private segments, reduce collisions, like a switch.\nBy simply replacing a hub with a switch of the exact same speed, you can often increase your networks speed by 10 to 30%, on average.  This happens because the fewer collisions, the less re-transmits your networked device has to do.  This therefore increases the amout of usuable bandwidth your network can provide.

For those of you who are married 5 years or longer, what are some ways you keep an active and happy sex life?

The tides depend on not only the forcing of the sun, moon and other celestial bodies, but they depend on the shape of the bottom topography, shape of the coastline, etc. \n\nThat is why in some places there are two high tides a day (so-called semidiurnal tides, like in most of the world), some places there is only one high tide a day (so-called diurnal tides, like in California), and even some places with no tides at all, or 3 or more high tides per day. \n\nThere are also tides in rivers and lakes, but of course you can only see them if these bodies of water are big enough. There is also a good sized tide in the solid earth, and in the atmosphere too, as you might expect.


Hopefully you mean muscle cramps?  If it's a menstruation problem I can't help.\n\nMuscle cramps can be wiped-out by regular stretching, making sure you're well hydrated, and taking a multi-vitamin daily.\n\nHowever, if you're in your teens and growing fast, there's nothing you can do about it.  It's just something that happens to all of us.

what is called Masturbation in details. as per my knowledge does a husband comes to know about your?

ummm....im not sure what all the *s are but masturbation in NO WAY causes you to loose your virginity! My mother is a sex ed teacher, i know what im saying! And the whole hymen story is a load of bull shit! Some women are born with a larger opening in their hymen than others so it is possible that even masturbating wont rupture it. think about it if your hymen cover everything you wouldnt be able to have a period or use a tampon, and there are lots of ways to accidentally break the hymen. girls who play sports typically break theirs by accident, so dont listen to all the rumors ask a professional. you'll feel better, and youll know your info is correct!


What is the worse job you have ever had?

When I was in college, I made extra money during some of my vacations by working for my brothers when they ran a mink ranch.  Don't worry, PETA tpyes--it's long since out of business.\n\nAnyway, one of the more delightful jobs I got was removing the false bottoms of cages a month after new litters were born.  They were covered in manure that I had to scrape off into a wheelbarrow.  I believe I had that detail all to myself for all of the ranch's 2000 females that had litters--just imagine the fun I had.  :-)

1 of my friends is dating a separated woman with a kid After 4-5 months he suddenly cut off the relationship.?

I cannot agree or disagree with him.  I was not present during all of those 4 to 5 months that the couple was dating.  He says he never promised her to get into a serious relationship, but did he ever tell her that?  Did he just lead her on for the sex?  Did she ever ask him what his intentions were?  Did she just assume that because they were having sex that the relationship was serious (or would lead to more commitments)?\nAnd what business is this of yours (unless the woman was your sister)?\n... and don't you just hate it when somone answers a question with a bunch of questions?

the person i love is in another country.its ben a year since she left.is it worth continuing?

if you guys still love and wait for each other, then it's worth continuing. My uncle and aunt had been in the same situation. They waited for each other for 20 years, and now they are married with 1 kid. If she's your true love, then it's always worth waiting.


If Red hair is a dominant trait, why are there not more red haired people?

First, alot of blondes are bottled. There are alot of people out there that do have some red in there hair, but most colour it or it is in there as some hilites. Everybody had some degree of red, just a different mixture of it. Everyone has brown hair believe it or not. On the colour wheel, red, blue and yellow make up brown, so you will see some people have more of 1 colour than most.Hope that helps you some.

How to search an hormone molecular estructure?

If you know that the structure of the hormone is already known, then the SciFinder is best.  If you are talking about original research, then you must get your hands on enough of the pure hormone to analyze.\nMost hormones are small (relatively speaking) proteins.  The pure hormone specimen is usually placed into a sequential analyzer and the primary structure is determined first.  The secondary structure usually requires some sort of crystallography technique.

It's a yes and a no.  \n\nNo, in the sense that people are trying their best to be less judgemental about where the person is from or its heritage.  Like in the workforce, when hiring an applicant recruiters are doing their best to hire someone because of what that person can bring to the table, not by his or her color, religion or sex.\n\nHowever, there's that YES, yes in the sense that it's still mostly evident in some of the older generations or within our own family.  Me for example, my old relatives would always push me to marry a lady from my country not from any nation.\n\nI think it depends on the situation that racism is still evident.  But, at least it's not as severe as before.  Lastlt, there's always the issue of race or racism as long as there are stereotypes amongst ourselves.

Will a turbo fit on a carburettor engin?

Turbos can (and have) been put on carb'd cars.  However, due to the increased control using today's electronics, I can't see them as being as effective as FI turbocharged.  When you increase the airflow to the engine (turbocharging and supercharging are forced induction) you must increase the fuel as well, otherwise you will end up in an incredibly lean condidtion and damage the motor.  Motors work best with a specific air/fuel ratio.  With carbs you must re jet for the best compromised AFR.  With FI you can "map" the fuel to maintain the best AFR over the entire range of RPM. Other mods will include oiling system changes (you need to make sure the turbo will live). Hope this helps.


How would you react if you caught your boyfriend cheating on you?

Hmmm.....she was to be helping me? I would simply ask her how the 'research' is going? I would definitely be more upset with her than with the boyfriend. He's 20. She's 34 and family! I honestly would just be done with them both. I wouldn't throw a fit.......I wouldn't confront them. I would just know that I was so glad to find out what both are capable of. And then have nothing to do with either no matter how much either of them begged.

2 cups of cocoa sitting in a table, 1 has a metal spoon in it and 1 doesn't, after 5minutes, w/c cup is colder

Right, the one with a spoon in it.  It is cooler because the spoon will absorb (for the lack of a better word) heat from the cocoa.  It (the spoon) will continue to absorb heat and the cocoa will continue to loose heat until the two are the same temperature.\n\nI can't believe I actually remember something from my pre-physics class!!!!


Physically, John Cena is quite an attractive man and his performance on WWE is the sole reason as to why I even sporadically watch professional wrestling.

Let guess how many will Kobe score in today match after his historic 81 points last game?

I know people really want to see another 81 or more point game by Kobe, but that would be a one in a billion chance of happening, even if it is against Golden State (although of course I would like to see it).  I'm saying he'll score 41 points against them.


Will the Colts make the playoffs next year?

The Colts are a very good football team and I'm sure they will continue to be a very good football team. This season is definitely a setback in some ways, but I expect them to be in the playoffs for at least the next three years. They have a lot of playmakers on defense (June, Mathis, Freeney), and we know they have a lot of playmakers on offense.\n\nI wouldn't worry about losing Reggie Wayne or Edge. Brandon Stokely is ready to step up as a 2nd receiver, and don't forget that Dominick Rhodes rushed for 1100 yards as a rookie in 2001.\n\nFurthermore, let's not forget about how many bad teams there are in the league. For many players on teams in Buffalo, Tennessee, Detroit, Oakland, New Orleans, and Saint Louis (just to name a few), going to Indianapolis through free agency would give them a much better chance to win a Super Bowl ring than they would have with their current team.

what are the symptomes of breast cancer?

Symptoms \n\nEarly breast cancer usually does not cause pain. In fact, when breast cancer first develops, there may be no symptoms at all. But as the cancer grows, it can cause changes that women should watch for: \n\n\nA lump or thickening in or near the breast or in the underarm area. \nA change in the size or shape of the breast. \nA discharge from the nipple. \nA change in the color or feel of the skin of the breast, areola, or nipple (dimpled, puckered, or scaly). \nA woman should see her doctor if she notices any of these changes. Most often, they are not cancer, but only a doctor can tell for sure.

is masterubation dangerous? does our sperms get less by that?

I have tried to talk to him about it and told him that if things dont change i am gone?

Since you didn't post this in the marriage section I will assume you aren't married and no children are involved. \n\nFirst, ask yourself if the changes you have asked him to make are reasonable.  If whatever he is doing is really not acceptable to you and you know you can't live with it, get out.  It may be hard at first but is better than continuing a relationship with someone you know you really can't stand.  On the other hand, make sure that you aren't expecting him to be perfect.  People just aren't, and if it's trivial things that are aggravating but not incredibly so...just deal with it.  \n\nIf you told him you'd leave and you continue putting up with him- you have not followed through and he'll never believe you.  Be sure you are really ready to leave and be without him, because (gut feeling) I think you're hoping you'll leave and he will be crawling back- changed for good!  That isn't going to happen.\n\n*********************************************\nAnyone trying to control where you go & who you see is not what you want to get mixed up in! Now I have a clearer picture of what you are trying to change, and it isn't socks left on the floor.  Stay with mom.

Usually when dealing with this "storage" idea what is being addressed is the fact that insects get into stored food products.  They will cause spoilage and damage in grain elevators and other places where harvested crops are stored.


What is the Kingdom that Jesus spoke about when he was on the earth?

It was the heavenly kingdom of which Jesus is now the ruling king. It is the one true government that will wipe out all of the ones on the earth today, and will have earth's inhabitants unified under it in true worship. It will eventually be handed over from Jesus to his Father after Christ's 1000 Year Reign and after Satan is completely destroyed.


what is the difference between an "A Fib" and an "A Fluuter"?

A-fib is an irregular and rapid impulse from discharged from multi ectopic atrial foci.  A-flutter is an arrhythnia origininating in the atrium characterized by rapid, REGULAR atrial activity.  On an EKG we do not see "P" waves in atrial fib and the rate may be rapid or slow, but it is irregular.  A-flutter can be very rapid or slow depending how the ventricle responds to the atrial impulses.  The "P" waves in atrial flutter are very visable and look "saw toothed".  Each can be dangerous.  When a person has a-fib there is a great risk of blood clots.

This really is a tough question to answer.  I think there really isn't one universal answer.\n\nTo me, it's a personal thing, what do I believe?  You can either take the stance that yes, it does have to say "Jesus," "God," or the like to be "Christian."\n\nOr, you can look at the overall meaning of the song.  Is it positive and uplifting?  But in this case, I think you also have to take a look at the artist's lifestyle, and what they're living for.  Yes, someone might have songs about positive things, but if they're singing about going out and helping out the community, but in their private life are smoking pot and sleeping around, then there's no question in my mind that it shouldn't be considered "Christian" music.

does all states have laws limiting amount of interest a credit card can charge?

I would of thought that this is a Federal issue since the Constitution says that controlling commerce falls under the federal goverments job, but after doing a search I found I was wrong. Each state is allowed to set a limit as to what interest rates a bank can charge. While the PDF linked below doesn't give rates by state, it gives some interesting info.


I think one of the biggest misconceptions about store-bought vitamins is that they are the same vitamins we get from food.  Most often, they're actually synthetic forms of what occurs naturally in food, and that synthetic, manufacured for is really scary!\n\n"Taking the synthetic form of vitamin C, for example, can actually thicken the arterial walls of the heart by as much as 2.5 times which can lead to heart disease and can do harm to the body! Ascorbic acid ( synthetic vitamin C ) is the word that you need to watch out for!\n\nTaking the synthetic form of vitamin A is proven to actually increase the rate of cancer which can do more harm than good to your body! But the whole vitamin A ( from vegetables ) actually does the exact opposite. Whole Vitamin A significantly reduces the rate of cancer! Most Vitamin nutrients on the market today use stripped down synthetic vitamins rather than whole vitamins straight from vegetables and fruits like our vitamin! Why? Synthetic vitamins are much cheaper to produce. \n\nTaking the synthetic form of Vitamin E is proven to actually suck vitamins and minerals right out of the bones which can do more harm than good to the body! Once again, most vitamin supplements today are using all the synthetic vitamins because they are cheap to manufacture."\n\nIt seems to me that synthetic vitamins, those that we normally find in the sotres, aren't the best option.  I use a food-based multivitamin so I get all those nutrients in their original form.\n\nHow do you know what you're getting?\n\n"Remember, next to the name of any vitamin, if you don't see a name of a food or an asterisk leading you to a place on the label that tells you the food source of the vitamins, you are more than likely looking at an inexpensive, processed vitamin that is stripped of all other compounds that are normally present with vitamins that are found in fruits and vegetables. If you see the name of a food referenced to the vitamin, be excited to know that you are getting vitamins direct from the whole food and, therefore, you are also getting the essential precursors, enzymes, activators, antioxidants, and micronutrients (essential compounds) that are naturally found with vitamins. These essential compounds make it much easier for the body to absorb and utilize the vitamins you are taking! Your body deserves to be given the right vitamins that are essential for your good health!"\n\nQuotes above from http://www.newbetteryou.com - more info available there.


How do you get an 11-year-old to swallow a soft capsule pill?

Make your son/daughter swallow/eat a big spoon of gelatin.\nThen make a cube of gelatin (approx. a small nut size) and put the capsule inside it.\nAs a matter of fact, you should let your son/daugher to put it inside the cube, just to let him/her participate of the trick. \nAsk him/her to swallow it. At this point he/she'll know that he/she is able to swallow medium-size bits, like the gelatin cube is.


cant figure out how to find the Z-score?

In order to use the standard normal prob. chart, you need to subtract the mean and then divide by the std dev.\nP(X>125) = P( Z > (125-110)/15 ) = P(Z>1) \nDon't forget that the tables tell you the area to the left (i.e. <), but you can look up the area to the left and then subtract that value from 1 to get the area to the right.  In other words:\nP(Z>1) = 1 - P(Z<1) \nP(Z>1) = 1 - 0.841345 = .158655\nAlmost 16% of infants have birthweights above 125 oz.


What sport did Burt Reynolds play at Florida St. University?

Reynolds attended Florida State University on a college football scholarship, becoming an all-star Southern Conference halfback. While at Florida State, Reynolds joined the Phi Delta Theta Fraternity, the football team's fraternity of choice. After a knee injury in 1955 and then a debilitating car accident, Reynolds switched from athletics to college drama and won the 1956 Florida State Drama Award. He was drafted by the Baltimore Colts National Football League team, but he never played professional football.*


how can i tread myself of Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD)?

I agree with the previous poster- if you have never been in treatment for GAD before or if you have never technically been diagnosed, it probably isnt the best idea to treat yourself, however if you are sure that is what the problem is and you've already been to therapy- you can try to do the techniques learned in therapy on your own-- for example, cognitive-behavioral therapy is a very successful treatment for GAD and other anxiety disorders- try to make a list of all things and situations that make you uncomfortable and list them from 0-10 (0 no anxiety 10-the most anxiety) and start slowly by doing exposing yourself to those things lower on the list and eventually work your way up- the cognitive part is important to put to use during these exposures-- I would at the very least go to your local bookstore and see what they have in the self-help section- some workbooks can guide you in the right direction, but nothing is better than having a well qualified psychologist whom you see reguarly and who can give you tips, tools, techniques, guidance and support

I suspect he will run for the nomination (winning is another thing.)  He has been out there making a name for himself outside of politics, writing and publicizng books for a general audience, talking on the Today show about weight loss, and he is chairman of the National education Association and the National Governor's Conference, both of which position him to forge alliences and demonstrate national leadership.  The mian political reason to do any of this is to set the ground for a Presidential run -- they don't help him in his home state as much as other things he could do which don't take him away.  He cannot run again for governor because of term limits.  And he is from a town called Hope, which gives hope to Presidential candidates (like Bill Clinton.)\n\nI have no doubt he is seriously considering running, and suspect he will actually try.\n\nPS -- it is Huckabee.

I'm an ice hockey goalie..help working out?

I won't go into specific exercises, but I will recommend a great book. Its called "Getting Stronger" by Bill Pearl.  What you would find especially useful about this book is the section called "Sports Training Programs".  In that section, they have a specific section for Ice Hockey.  That section has Off Season, Pre Season and In Season programs.  The Ice Hockey section in particular was written by Bob Bourne, former Left Wing for the New York Islanders in 1980-1983.
