Absolutely.  Religious bickering amongst people ignorant of the difference between scientific and legal and common definitions of "theory" is a downright foolish, yet these are the people making policy!!  You know it's endemic when it has reached that level...\n\nWhat SHOULD we focus on?\n\n1. MATH: This is the source of technological edge in the world.  When we trail India and China and more than 20 other countries in this area, we are BEGGING to get whacked.\n\n2. Literacy:  6th grade reading ability is no longer sufficient.  Composition skills are, as you can see on this site, abombinable.  Mean, BASIC SPELLING!!??  Reading comprehension and study skills should not be difficult to grasp either.\n\n3. Science: Sadly, many students apparently don't even know what this is, let alone know how to explain why evolution is a scientific theory and intelligent design is not.  Some scientists act pompus about it, but I see it as a reflection of the quality of science education in this country.\n\n4. Ethics:  Some moron decided this shouldn't be taught in school.  Very stupid.  This should be a required class and could be a religious outlet for some while perhaps learning how atheists COULD actually have morality without religion.\n\n5. Debate and logic:  This is NOT "uh-huh vs. nuh-huh!"  Why our presidential debates and rationales are so friggin lame (unless you'd rather see something closer to the WWF).\n\n6. History: I am SHOCKED that people don't know the connection between the Salem Witch trials and why the US has a seperation of church and state.  Perhaps there is too much time wasted on historical fantasies and not enough on historical realities.\n\nLast, but not least, we really need to pay more attention to how we REALLY compare to other countries.  Sure, Japan and China and Germany have sophisticated ways of padding their educational systems' results by sorting out the unmotivated, lackluster students into second-class vocational schools, but if China is cranking out many times more Engineering students and India is cranking out many times more Engineering students, then, Houston, we have a problem...


Has anyone here been to the Rob Zombie tour?

Yep, saw them at the Warfield in S.F. Good shit. He played Thunderkiss '65 with an extended solo. F*cking badass. He only played one or two of his new songs. Great stuff. Obscenity abound. Hooah.


=_= I remember those pranking days.. I got into so much trouble lol... but... half of the time, I wasn't discovered ^.^\n\nHere are a few rules:\n1. Never give urself away by laughing\n2. Make sure you keep a straight face when telling a lie on fools day or when pulling off a prank\n3. If you know you're going to get into trouble, make sure it's worth it xD\n\nOnce you're all set, here are a few I've pulled:\n\n1. Buy a pregnancy test thing (you know, those white things with the plus or minus sign once you test?) Anyway, take the test, and when it shows the result, (most likely a minus, right? =3 ) ok, so u'll see the result as a certain color... take a marker... and turn that answer into a possitive... <_< if ur parents will kill you for it, use this prank on your friends or something >_< it works all the time xD\n\n2. A plastic bug that looks real... nuff said... if u want an example... =3 alrighty then: take a lil bug, maybe ten or fifty.. lmao.. stuff them under someone's bed, spread them around, and turn off the lights... but some ppl's beds are dark underneath anyway, so it'll be ok. next, bring in whoever that victim is.. n tell them about it.. i did this prank to my mom and she ended up grabbing a pan and tried killing the bugs- they're rubber material made them jump around, so it took her a while to realize they were fake xD\n\n3. here's a simple one-- hide behind a wall or in a closet-- when the person comes close, jump out and yell out loud.. i mean REAAAALLY loud-- just make sure the person doesn't get a heart attack from it <_<\n\n4. Go to some awesome prank shop-- like spencers (hot topic has some random stuff too) and buy the false cigar-- it glows and it spouts powder to make it look like it's smoking-- ur all set. ^-^\n\n5. If you really want crazy pranks... here's a wonderful page: http://www.zug.com/pranks.html (they have ones that can get u in major trouble-- and ones that are just funny little jokes)

When I asked him he said " Oh if you insist " and smiled at me and said he'd love too. Sometimes a little humour and straightforwardness is your best option. Good luck.

Anyone else have "Night Terrors"? How did you stop them?

I found that if think about all the things that I found destressing in past dreams just before I go to sleep. that they do not appear that night.  It's sort of facing your fears. When your sleeping your hidden fears in your subconcious come forward in your dreams. But if you face them while awake, then they are no longer in your subconcious etc.\nTry it, it works for me. If not then your best bet is to see a professional.

What would you do if the same girl at my daughter school keep on bully and hass. her?

I have to be honest, if you see this girl pull her aside and tell her if she lands another finger or if you see her talking to your daughter you will take matters into your own hands. If she tells anybody else you threatened her.deny it..your the adult, then most likely the parents will start looking into it. I am serious! It works.


what is cause of high blood pressure readings early morning?

In a healthy individual, blood pressure does vary depending on the time of day, but it should be lowest in the morning just after a relaxing night's sleep (actually, it should be lowest when you're asleep, but you're generally not measuring then). It should peak around mid-afternoon.\n\nCertain medications, like corticosteroids, will cause high blood pressure in the morning. However this could be a warning sign of a bigger health problem. As the previous answer suggested, it's a good idea to talk to your doctor.

i want to go oral to my girlfriend.how do i do it?

OK here's what dramatically improved my technique.  Get this book called Guide to Getting it On (Amazon has) and do what it says.  But basically you want to realize that your tongue is capable of all kinds of subtle moves and strokes, and you want put a lot of teasing into it and suspense, not just zero in on the clit and go like a jackhammer.  Be unpredictable. Lick along the lenght of her lips, inner, outer the groove between, and only play a little at the clit and then go away again to something else...and then come back... keep her guessing.  Try different things with a pointy tongue, the broad flat of your tongue, short strokes, long strokes, slow strokes, fast strokes, curvy strokes, whatever.  And make sure you lick her thighs, right where they meet the crotch.  And after a while you can spend more time on her clit and the skin surrounding it, and you can actually suck her clit into your mouth, between your lips, and play with it with your tongue while it's in your mouth.\n\nYou don't need to go fast, that'l just tire you out. Go slow, and last for a long time, that's what she'll appreciate.

What do you think? Please read my question?

Another important aspect of physics and engineering is building stuff.  In all the labs I've worked in (physics), there has been a large element of working with the hands, whether by putting together electronics, welding and soldering, using machine tools, sample preparation, or whatever.  It's important to feel comfortable working with your hands.  \n\nThe most effective way I have found for me to study is not only reading, but working to solve problems-- after you learn a concept, do several simple problems to make sure the concept and its applications stick with you.  I also find it's a lot easier to visualize things if I have some idea of the mathematical stuff that's going on.

What is a good activity or craft for third graders learning about weather?

Have them make a collage about weather.  Take a big piece of cardboard.  Have them divide it into four parts.  Have them make a sun for the sunny days.  For rainy days they can add cotton balls and some silver glitter for rain drops.  For snow days they can use cotton balls for the snow and some white glitter.  For windy days have them scatter some confetti about or something.  Then have them make an arrow and use a brad (I think thats what they are called) and have them stick it through the arrow and into the middle of their paper.  Then when they watch the weather report with mom and dad during the evening news they can turn the dial to the next days weather.  This will teach them that the weather can be predicted each day and they can see if the weather forecaster was right or not when they wake up the next morning and compare the weather or their paper with what is going on outside.


Somebody please explain...what is a Rule 5 player?

A player taken in the rule 5 draft...  See explanation below:\n\nThe process doesn't shake baseball's rafters, but it does add a wrinkle to the player-development game that's worth understanding. Every once in a while, a player makes a significant impact after being chosen, Pittsburgh's Roberto Clemente in 1954 being the classic example. \n\nThe Rule 5 draft has been a staple of the Winter Meetings almost from its beginning and sprung up as a method to prevent teams from stockpiling talent in their minor league systems. Players not on major league rosters would otherwise have little or no chance to find an opportunity to play elsewhere, though that restriction was further eased in the 1980s when minor leaguers got the right to become free agents after six full seasons. \n\nMajor league teams must protect players on their 40-man rosters within three or four years of their original signing. Those left unprotected are available to other teams as Rule 5 picks. \n\nPlayers who were 18 or younger on June 5 preceding the signing of their first contract must be protected after four minor league seasons. Players 19 and older must be protected after three seasons. \n\nBut here's the kicker: To prevent teams from drafting players willy-nilly, each Rule 5 pick must be kept in the major leagues the entire following season or be offered back to his former team for half of the $50,000 selection price. Few players are ready for such a jump, so only about 10-15 get picked each year. Fewer still last the whole season in the big leagues. \n\n"They have to keep a guy for the whole year, so a lot of teams are safe," says Paul Snyder, the Braves' director of scouting and player development. "But there have been kids drafted out of A-ball. \n\n"A few years ago (in 1984) Toronto got two guys (Lou Thornton and Manny Lee) who could pinch-run and play defense. They're easier to carry in the American League because there aren't as many pitching changes." \n\nOther miscellaneous Rule 5 rules and tidbits: \n\nThe "Rule 5" moniker comes from its place in the Professional Baseball Agreement. The June draft, for instance, is Rule 4. \nTeams must file their 40-man rosters by Nov. 20, and only those not at the full allotment of 40 may select players. \nTeams select in reverse order of that season's finish, with the American and National leagues alternating the No. 1 pick from year to year. The Twins have the first pick this year, followed by the Marlins (who can't pick as their roster stands at 40). \nSince 1950, selections have included a low of three players in 1974 and a high of 24 in 1994. The selection price was increased in 1985 to $50,000 from $25,000. \nThere are Triple-A and Double-A segments of the Rule 5 draft, with price tags of $12,000 and $4,000 respectively. Minor league players not protected on the reserve lists at the Double-A and Class A levels are subject to selection, but almost no future big leaguers emerge from this process. It's basically a tool for major league teams to fill out affiliates rather than obtain talent. \nIn 1988, the Braves drafted a player from themselves. They neglected to protect righthander Ben Rivera on the 40-man roster, had the first pick in the draft and took him. \nPlayers from the 1998 Rule 5 draft to stick all year include Pirates lefthander Scott Sauerbeck, Blue Jays catcher Alberto Castillo (acquired this month in a trade from the Cardinals) and Astros outfielder Glen Barker.


should I relocate to Georgia with my boyfreind & my daughter?

I don't necessarily think that everyone has a problem with Mexicans, but I do think most people assume every Mexican they meet is an illegal immigrant.  I'm a Spanish major at college, and one of my professors immigrated (legally) from Mexico.  She said a big part of it is the issue that the immigrants CAN'T become citizens legally.  That takes money, and Mexicans don't cross the border for the fun of it; they come to the U.S. when they're children are starving and they have no other choice.  If there was a way for them to come here legally, I'm sure they'd rather do that, then risk their life in the desert, and constantly hide from immigration.  I wish people were better informed on the issue.

Do you know anything about Seventh Day Adventist Christians?

yes i am a Seventh Day Adventist.  All of my family is as well.  I grew up in this enviroment.  Not all of us are vegetarians or Vegans we do eat meat.  We don't eat unclean meat(pork, lobster, shrimp, mostly animals that feed on animals), we do keep the Sabbath(Friday sunset to Saturday sunset)  We don't go shopping or pay for any service we spend that time to get closer to God and our church family and just be out in nature.  We are most very healthy tests show we live 8-10 years longer than the average man.  We believe in the trinity, and that the dead sleep till resurection day.  Some of us are very strict and some aren't.  For the most part the real adventists don't wear jewlery or flashy makeup.  Some do though but those ppl aren't as strict.  I've grown up in this enviroment and I'm very happy with my life.  I don't want my life any other way. It is hard for people to accept this religion b/c it tells them they have done so many things wrong and they don't want to change. We also believe and follow all of the ten commandments and the bible.  We do belive the time is near, and we are waiting for that time, but till then we don't try to guess when its going to happen, we know it will when God wants it to.  Till then he is trying to get as many lives as he possibly can.  We don't not follow one person God said don't put any gods or idols before me(if you want to get on that subject why do the Catholics follow the Pope?) We belive everyone can be saved.  We don't judge for the most part thats God's job not ours.I hope I explained it well enough if you have any questions just ask. It's easier to understand if you grew up with it.  Some people call us a cult but I don't really know why.  Does anyone here know why people call us a cult?

What is the best thing to do when you feel alone?

It might sound corny, but I always lie down and listen to music with headphones on. Always seems to cheer me up if I can find lyrics that really connect with how I feel.\n\nBut if you want a better but less immediate solution, go out to meet new people, make new friends. But don't let yourself be desperate and befriend a bad crowd. Be smart about it. You can even find friends online in chat rooms (the Yahoo chat rooms on messenger used to work for me) or if you're a teen, teenspot.com is really cool. Just let yourself be heard and don't be too shy! Friends are anywhere, sometimes where you'd least expect them. Just gotta keep your eyes open! =)


Custom software, is a type of software that is developed either for a specific organization, or a specific function which differ from other already available software (also called off-the-shelf software), and is generally not targeted towards the mass-market.\n\nCustom software has many advantages, the most important one of course being the fact that the software may be developed for a highly specific purpose, which makes it highly efficient, although at a high cost. Another big advantage when compared to off-the-shelf software is the difference in the relationship between the developer and the customer.\n\nDuring the development, the developer can interact more easily with the future users, and it is easier to incorporate additional functionality as most of the users (if not all) often require the same functionality. Another factor of great importance is that the development phase itself doesn't necessarily need to have a strict deadline, compared with mass-market software, where major applications often are plagued with serious bugs as a result of a short span between deadline and first-sale. Custom software developers on the other hand, can create a version that only contains the system core, and perhaps a few essential system modules. That way, any bugs found in the software is easier to fix, and the developers have a foundation to add more functionality to later in the process.\n\nThe biggest issue with custom software is without doubt the cost, and the time involved developing the software. If you buy an off-the-shelf product from Microsoft or other software producers, the application is ready to install at once, and to a fairly low price, and often with good options when it comes to training or support (although at an added cost). The problem with such software is that for organizations with a highly specialized requirement, the functionality required isn't necessarily available, or it might be implemented in a way that adds to the users' workload. Custom software on the other hand, is costly, as it is created from scratch, in addition to a smaller user base and hence, the licensing cost is higher for each user compared to off-the-shelf software.\n\nOther problems that may occur when using custom software, is exporting data to other systems as this is a feature that has be built inside the system. If the custom software utilizes a proprietary file format, this may become difficult, as opposed to generic software which often come with functions that enables the user to convert a document to other formats by a single 'click'. This can also become an enormous problem when the user wants to upgrade/change to a different system, as the data storage formats may not be compatible.

Hiya, right here goes - \n\nyou want to find log10 . where log is to the base 2.\n\nfrom the prvious lecture notes you can see that the starting point fot the discrete logarithm is to fix a primative element which is dependent on which base you are working to. By definition this is an element g such that\n\ng^i ≠ 1 (mod p) for 1<i<p-2  ( and p>10 for it to work)\n\nin the example g=2 and p=11. p has been chose as 11 because\n\n 2^i ≠ 1 (mod p)  for 1<i<9\n\nhe point of the logarithm is then to find i such that 2^i ≡ 10 (mod p) trial and error gives that 2^5 ≡ 10(mod 11)\n\nso log10=5

What Are the pro's and cons of using sacchrin?

Questions about artificial sweeteners and cancer arose when early studies showed that cyclamate in combination with saccharin caused bladder cancer in laboratory animals. However, results from subsequent carcinogenicity studies (studies that examine whether a substance can cause cancer) on these sweeteners and other approved sweeteners have not provided clear evidence of an association between artificial sweeteners and cancer in people. \n\nWhat have studies shown about a possible association between specific artificial sweeteners and cancer? \nSaccharin \n\nStudies in laboratory rats during the early 1970s linked saccharin with the development of bladder cancer. For this reason, Congress mandated that further studies of saccharin be performed and required that all food containing saccharin bear the following warning label:  “Use of this product may be hazardous to your health. This product contains saccharin, which has been determined to cause cancer in laboratory animals.”  Subsequent studies in rats showed an increased incidence of urinary bladder cancer at high doses of saccharin consumption, especially in male rats. However, mechanistic studies (studies that examine how a substance works in the body) have shown that these results apply only to rats. Human epidemiology studies (studies of patterns, causes, and control of diseases in groups of people) have shown no consistent evidence that saccharin is associated with bladder cancer incidence. \n\nBecause the bladder tumors seen in rats are due to a mechanism not relevant to humans, and because there is no clear evidence that saccharin causes cancer in humans, saccharin was delisted in 2000 from the U.S. National Toxicology Program’s Report on Carcinogens, where it had been listed since 1981 as a substance reasonably anticipated to be a human carcinogen (a substance known to cause cancer). More information about the delisting of saccharin is available at http://ntp.niehs.nih.gov/ntp/roc/eleventh/append/appb.pdf on the Internet. The delisting led to legislation, which was signed into law on December 21, 2000, repealing the warning label requirement for products containing saccharin.

what to do in simultaneous interpreting ?

I'm not sure if I understand your question correctly,  but I think you are asking what "simultaneous interpreting" is.   Simultaneous interpreting is when someone is speaking in one language,  and at the same time as he is speaking,  someone translates it into another language.   It's what they do at the U.N. and in other diplomatic situations where a lot of different languages are being used.   It is also used in business or at international conferences.    \n\nIt requires a lot of skill,   since the interpreter must listen to what is being said,  translate it,  and speak -- all at the same time!  Plus they need to be very careful that what they are saying is an exact translation,  because small differences in words can make a very big difference in meaning!\n\nAlso,  many simultaneous speak multiple languages.

share price of IBM on 2nd of Jan 1985 is 21.56$. On 1st of February 2006 it's 80.24$. What is the ROI ?

No, it's not just $80.24 - $21.56.  \n\nFirst, we need to find out if there were any stock splits (adjustments in the price of the stock and number of shares outstanding) in IBM's stock during that period and adjust the resulting current price accordingly.\n\nFor instance, suppose a person bought 100 shares of IBM stock at $50 per share.  Then within the first year of ownership, there was a 2 for 1 stock split.  At the moment that the split takes effect, that person who owned 100 shares of stock at $50 apiece would now own 200 shares of the stock at $25 apiece.  If after a few years the price of the stock made it up to $45, it would look like that person had lost $5 per share (-10%) during that period.  In fact, he made 80% taking into account only the price appreciation of the stock, assuming no transaction fees.  His original investment of $5000 (100 shares at $50 apiece) would now be worth $9000 (200 shares at $45 apiece).\n\nFurthermore, assuming IBM pays periodic dividends (profit distributions to shareholders) which is more likely than not, the number and amount of these dividends received would need to be added into the person's ROI equation.

How satellites runs for a longer time without getting any fuel? From where it gets the enrgy for orbiting?

All of them have a source of power (usually solar cells) and batteries for storage.\n\nArrays of solar cells provide power to charge rechargeable batteries. Newer designs include the use of fuel cells. Power on most satellites is precious and very limited. Nuclear power has been used on space probes to other planets. Power systems are constantly monitored, and data on power and all other onboard systems is sent to Earth stations in the form of telemetry signals.

is there a web site i can go to that will compare different banks?

Yes.\n\nI have a link to it on my website - bankrate.com.\n\nIt is okay - but not always very thorough - depending on where you live. Click on the compare rates tab (on top) and then answer the questions - state, city - and you will have a comparison.\n\nUse it as a guide - think about how you will use your account and bank, and let that help you choose.\n\nFor instance: Need a bank with atms near where I work and play, need a bank that is open when I can get there, need a bank that doesn't charge me for checking, need a bank that is easy to get in and out of, need a bank with helpful staff, etc...you know what you need\n\nGood luck

I do and I love Hurley - that poor guy - going through so much bad luck and then finding out he was in a mental hospital and so on and so on - interestingly enough - not only is Hurley's love interest in the same hospital, but "Henry Gale" the name of the prisoner was also the name of the janitor in the same asylum!\n\nI have a few theories on the outcome - one - this is all a rpg game that Locke is playing\n\ntwo - it's all in Hurley's head - or another mental patient's head - ala the autistic child at the end of St ELsewhere(it was all a dream in the child's mind)\n\nor three - it's a sort of experiment - which is what we're being lead to believe anyway - I really think three - that they purposely crashed a plane to watch people like lab rats. ...which doesn't really explain all the coincidences and the healing of the sick. \n\nMy friend's friend decoded the map that was on the hatch's door a few episodes prior - check it out http://sexonthegulfcoast.com/blastDoorMap.jpg\n\nIf you look at the blueprint, it sort of ties in with my third theory.


i really like this guy but im not sure if he has feelings for me what do i do?

Do something special for him, I think i read that somewhere up there. Guys don't much to figure out if a girl likes him. Just be friendly, and let him ask you out. If he doesn't get it, ask him out. But trust me, most guy can figure out if a girl likes him or not. I also agree on the smile thing. Oh yeah, another thing, you have nothing to lose. So go for it, its much harder for guys, because it could crush thier self-esteem, kinda got my hurt a few months ago, so, go ahead and make his day. : ) gl... and if it goes not as planned, so what? his loss...


Why does world cant understand the actual meaning of Islam?

"Be it that, you warn them or not warn them, it will be the same to them -- they will not believe."...Surah-al-Bakara, Qur'aan.\n\n"Recite: Oh, Disbelievers!  I do not serve that which you serve nor, do you serve Him who I serve.  I do not worship that which you worship nor, do you worship Him who I worship.  To you, your religion; to me, mine."...Surah-al-Kafirun, Qur'aan.\n\nMy Response to the Question: "Because they do NOT wish to understand since, they have ALREADY made-up their own CONCLUSION about Islam."


really appriciate it, if some1 can spend few minutes explaning this. thank you.?

Dragonfly is correct.  There may have been actions you could have taken if he had sold you the business under false pretenses, but after you re-negotiated, you should have written a new contract.  If you did not write a new contract after the change in agreement, the original contract still stands.\n\nYou could argue verbal contract, but 99% of the time the written contract will win.\n\nAlso, if you don't have any contract, then its even worse.  You could try to only pay him the half, but if you don't have any paperwork conveying the business to you or outlining the payments and the purchase, he can just take your money and claim either that you haven't paid, you haven't paid enough, or that you never even had a deal on the business.\n\nIf you are not well informed on the law, it is always wise to consult an attorney before making major business decisions.


Some maybe many of the brokers that you talk with are in the business of selling stock. They have things they want to peddle. So it can be a disadvantage to your well being to follow their advice. Many of the on line brokers do have representatives that you can talk with. The two that I deal with do. TD Waterhouse and Fidelity. They will charge you a higher commission to talk to a broker (order taker in this case).  I am sure there are good, knowledgable brokers out there but your chances of finding one are not real good. The good brokers have a customer base that trades millions of dollars at a time. They are not particularly interested in nickle dime trade. \n\nPerhaps to start you might think about a no load mutul fund. Go to Yahoo Finance and use their tools to find funds that have a high Morningstar rating, at least a 4 star and expenses of not more than 1.5% That strategy will minimize your risks, but not eliminate them. Back in 2000-2, most funds lost money, some a lot of money. But they did not loose as much as those folks that invested in Enron or Delta or United. \n\nThe trick to minimizing risk is to diversify, not only among companies buy also across political boundaries. However, the more diversified one is the closer to the market norm will be ones returns. For that reason index funds have become the current rage. The theory being that it is too difficult to beat the market. 70% of mutual funds do not beat the market. \n\nThough I do have mutual funds, I prefer to take my chances on being able to pick the best companies to invest in myself. Sometimes I make good picks. Other times they are disasters. But I have only myself to blame. I like it like that. \n\nSorry about the misspelled words. Spell checker does not seem to be working at the moment.

married3/82.spouse says go.no$,car,place togo.footinjury&medical condishns.legaly mak me if i say no?liv in AZ

My opinion is ; If your spouse wants out of the marriage then your spouse should go, but  how will you manage ? If by chance your spouse was the sole provider of the household there may be grounds for some support. But the bottom line is you should consider becoming a more independent person GOD bless the child who has his own. Finally it sounds to me that your spouse is your wife is that so ? There's a few other things that COULD be said but I'm sure you've heard them already


Office Etiquette: Multi-lingual Individuals?

It is not only rude, but also bad business to have some employees speak a second language at work. Many workplaces have an "English-only" rule. In your case, I believe you have a legitimate complaint. The conversations in another language may actually involve you. If it's a personal conversation that they don't want you to understand, they need to have it on their own time. It has no place in the office. Multiple languages in any workplace is divisive. I think you need to bring this up to management.


In realtion to: Is he being fair Question?

The best thing for you to do not discuss it anymore because he's expecting it and to start paying more attention to your needs. Such as, going out to dinner, getting your nails done, taking a class, voluntering at a local hospital, something that is positive and will show him that hey, you have a life and you're not going to bother him with anymore questions. All because you have better things to do.


Is it possible for a heterosexual male to march in the Pride Parade?

Yes. The first year I went to the local Pride Parade with friends one of the GLBTIQAF (Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgendered, Intersexed, Queer & Questioning, Allies of, and Friends of) groups for youth came over to my friends and I and asked us if we wanted to march. We agreed and got to march in the parade. Several of my straight friends have marched in it in other years either with this organization or with another organization. In fact, many of the organizations that march in the parade mostly have straight people marching (because their gay counterparts are often along the parade route watching and enjoying the parade). I've known straight people who may only know perhaps one or two gay people and will go and march at Pride while their gay friends watch and cheer them on.\n\nSo it's not unusual...in fact it's quite common. Usually it is actually more difficult to find gay people here who want to march in the parade. It's usually incredibly hot here and the parade route is sort of long (it starts on Classen and 32nd goes up to 41st, then turns around and goes back towards 39th then across 39th over to Penn and ends at the first corner after Penn usually. Altogether I think you march about 2.5/3 miles) and most gay people actually enjoy just watching the parade and getting some of the freebies some of the floats and marchers have with them and cheering others who have dared to march. \n\nWith a group I organize we are considering marching in the Pride parade this year. There are only two of us who are gay and one who is bisexual, the remaining 5 are all straight but supportive of GLBTIQ people (they're the A&F in that long list of letters).


Is it easy to become president of a country in Central America?

In Honduras, like in most countries, being wealthy greatly increases presidential aspirations. With this in mind the people will not vote for an unknown individual. Usually presidents are not the "common man". They are usually wealthy businessmen and have support of the country's leaders in one of the two main political parties, much like this country. In order to be elected as president one must side with either the liberal or conservative political party, since the population rarely votes for independents or non-traditional parties. A candidate has to be born in honduras, but his background may be foreign. Such is the case of ex-president Maduro. His family is from panama. Other presidents have been of spanish and turkish backgrounds.

How do you get somebody to give up possession of a home that you bought while it was under foreclosure?

Unlike some of the other people who have responded to this question, I am a practicing attorney and I actually have experience helping client with exactly this type of situation.\n\nThe exact procedures vary from state to state, so you should find a location attorney who handles eviction lawsuits.  You won't be able to call the police because this is a civil matter.  \n\nTypically you must give the person a notice to vacate, not unlike you might give to a renter at the end of a lease.  If they do not vacate, you need to file and eviction lawsuit. Eventually, you should be able to get a judgment for the possession of the property.  In most states, you would then get a writ of possession which then authorizes local law enforcement to remove the squatters from the property.


Why when people are caught on tapes abusing animals...like Covance, and Bailey & Barnum Circus....?

I haven't seen the tape, but in order to sue you need either to have your own interests harmed, or you need to be suing under a law which grants a private right of action to sue to enforce the law.  Animal cruelty statutes are usually criminal, and have to be enforced by the district attorney or county prosecutor, not by suit of a private individual.


Is the same amount of Pell money awarded each time a semester begins, or divided into for each school semester

Not sure what exactly you mean, but you don't necessarily even qualify for pell grants each year.  You fill out the paperwork annually & they look at your/your parents tax returns to determine if you qualify.\n\nSince you do just fill it out once per year, I would think that the amount you receive is set for the year & is most likely divided between the semesters you plan to enroll, or is applied to the full year in advance.


is it possible that drinking a lot of water to avoid us from eating a lot makes us fat?

OK, eating is a good thing, eating balanced meals and having a snack between breakfast and lunch and lunch and dinner is good for your body, the less you eat, the slower your metabolism is, the more you eat, the faster it is. A person who doesn't eat much is more likely to be heavy set then someone who eats more, of the right foods of course. When your metabolism works slowly it takes longer to break down and separate good from bad and that leads to weight gain because your body is not separating good carbs from bad and good fats from bad, ect. The faster your metabolism is the faster your body is going to to digest the food, where your energy comes from, and then you will use that energy to burn off calories, drinking only water is a good thing because our bodies are made up of mostly water and we have to replace the water that our bodies use to sweat , however it is not good to only drink water and eat little food because your body and metabolism are not working quickly enough to turn food into energy so you are not going to burn off enough calories, which in the end makes sense about why someone who ate very little would be heavy set compared to someone who ate the right amount of food, healthy food that is.

Stockholm Syndrome describes the behavior of kidnap victims who, over time, become sympathetic to their captors. The name derives from a 1973 hostage incident in Stockholm, Sweden. At the end of six days of captivity in a bank, several kidnap victims actually resisted rescue attempts, and afterwards refused to testify against their captors. \nWhile some people are suggesting the recent Elizabeth Smart kidnapping sounds like a case of Stockholm Syndrome, the most famous incident in the U.S. involved the kidnapped heiress Patty Hearst. Captured by a radical political group known as the Symbionese Liberation Army in 1974, Ms. Hearst eventually became an accomplice of the group, taking on an assumed name and assisting them in several bank robberies. After her re-capture, she denounced the group and her involvement. \n\nWhat causes Stockholm Syndrome? Captives begin to identify with their captors initially as a defensive mechanism, out of fear of violence. Small acts of kindness by the captor are magnified, since finding perspective in a hostage situation is by definition impossible. Rescue attempts are also seen as a threat, since it's likely the captive would be injured during such attempts. \n\nIt's important to note that these symptoms occur under tremendous emotional and often physical duress. The behavior is considered a common survival strategy for victims of interpersonal abuse, and has been observed in battered spouses, abused children, prisoners of war, and concentration camp survivors.

Why does life allow ordinariness to prosper like a weed whilst genius suffers and withers?

Who was the governor of Alabama in 1963?

(m)\n\nGeorge Corley Wallace (August 25, 1919 – September 13, 1998) was an American politician who was elected Governor of Alabama as a Democrat four times (1962, 1970, 1974 and 1982) and ran for U.S. President four times as well (in 1964, 1968, 1972 and 1976). He is best known for his racist attitudes during American de-segregation. His first wife, Lurleen Wallace, was the first (and, as of 2006, only) woman to ever be elected as Governor of Alabama.

Using the Gauss jordan Method to solve this problem?

Gauss Jordan elimination has to do with matrix operations.  Take your coefficients and constants and put them in an augmented matrix (basically a matrix with an extra column for the constants):\n\n| -2 -5 | -15 |\n| -6 -15 | -45 |\n\nUsing elementary row operations, try to get this into row reduced echelon form (all 1's on the diagonal):\n\nR1/(-2) -> R1\n| 1 5/2 | 15/2 |\n| -6 -15 | -45 |\n\nR2 - (-6)R1 -> R2\n| 1 5/2 | 15/2 |\n| 0 0 | 0 |\n\nFrom here, we see that we can't get this into RRE, and from this we can say that there is no solution.\n\nThis was seen in the previous answers in solving it as a system of equations versus using a matrix.  From inspecting the equations as a system, you can see that these are actually the same line - the second is the first multiplied by 3.  Since they are the same line, there are actually infinite solutions.\n\n(If these were parallel lines, then you would have no solution.  Remember that a "solution" is a point of intersection in this case.  If they are parallel, they never intersect, and thus the system would have no solution.  But if they overlap, they always intersect, and thus the system would have infinite solutions.)\n\nsomeguy's explanation in turning it into a parameter is a legitimate approach if you _have_ to have an answer.  The answer he came up with works, regardless of which equation you started with.\n\nSo from this, we have three answers:  no solution (from G-J elimination), infinite solutions (from inspecting the lines graphically/analytically), and (15/2 - 5y/2, y) (from turning it into a parameter solution).  Take your pick based on whatever method you are required to use for this particular problem.

does anyone know anything about german syntactic rules?

I know a lot about them--what did you want to know?  German is actually considered mixed SVO/SOV since all dependent clauses have the verb moved to the end.  A very good book on German syntax comparing it to English is "A Comparative Typology of English and German" by John A. Hawkins, 1986, University of Texas Press.  There may be something more recent, but this is the book we used in my graduate German Syntax class at UT in 1992.

can you contract crabs or any other STD from getting a bikini wax?

I don't think it's possible.  You get crabs from intimate contact with another person - not from surfaces.  You cannot get crabs from tables or toilet seats. \n\nI think it would be next to impossible to get any other std from waxing.  \n\nThe wax is hot, therefore it would kill any bacteria or virus that might be in the wax. (Crabs also die at high temps.)  The waxer probably wears gloves, so there would no risk there. I would hope the table or chair you're sitting in is wiped down.  If not, it's unlikely that any std would "hang around" on the surface.  Most of them die on contact with the air.


how long will it take for styrophome to break down under water?

First we need to clear up what you mean.  'Styrofoam' is a trademarked name for a type of panelled home insulation.  They failed to protect the trademark well enough, so now "closed cell foam" is pretty much routinely called Styrofoam, and it's not.\n\nAnyway, blocks of closed cell foam used for flotation (such as under floating docks, and inside closed areas of boat hulls, etc.) are more likely to be broken or damaged by improper handling, exposure to rough weather and freeze/thaw conditions, and other mechanical damage.  In addition, many types of closed cell foam will break down in sunlight, so UV protection is vital.\n\nIf your blocks are adequately protected from wear, breakage and sunlight, then water itself is unlikely to harm them.  (Keep in mind also that some types of closed cell foam, such as the kind used in coffee cups and packaging materials, are made of corn starch and are *intended* to break down over time.  You don't want that for your floating dock, diving platform, etc.!!)

Would you sleep with other women if your wife was unable / refused to have sex for the rest of her life?

Yes I would definitely need sex. If she refused to have sex, it's quit time - I'll be out of it but being unable, that's another story - being unable will change certain desires or urges may die with it - may become asexual and I will be able to provide communication, closeness, fun, humor, excitement and trust, that is if I had vowed to maintain the commitment - but as a guy who does not want to 'breed' I have not figured out the incentive to get hitched.\nFor me sex is like urinating - finding the available urinal - or sperm receptacle.

are eagles mentioned in the bible? if so where?

Exodus 19:4\n'You yourselves have seen what I did to Egypt, and how I carried you on eagles' wings and brought you to myself.\n \n2 Samuel 1:23\n"Saul and Jonathan— in life they were loved and gracious, and in death they were not parted. They were swifter than eagles, they were stronger than lions.\n\nJob 9:26\nThey skim past like boats of papyrus, like eagles swooping down on their prey.\n \nPsalm 103:5\nwho satisfies your desires with good things so that your youth is renewed like the eagle's.\n \nIsaiah 40:31\nbut those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.\n\nJeremiah 4:13\nLook! He advances like the clouds, his chariots come like a whirlwind, his horses are swifter than eagles. Woe to us! We are ruined!\n \nJeremiah 49:16\nThe terror you inspire and the pride of your heart have deceived you, you who live in the clefts of the rocks, who occupy the heights of the hill. Though you build your nest as high as the eagle's, from there I will bring you down," declares the LORD.\n \nLamentations 4:19\nOur pursuers were swifter than eagles in the sky; they chased us over the mountains and lay in wait for us in the desert.\n \nEzekiel 17:1\n[ Two Eagles and a Vine ] The word of the LORD came to me:

can poison of one venomous snake kill other of them?

That depends upon the snake species and its diet. Snakes that are snake eaters (ophiophagus) often have immunity to the venoms of other snake species, for obvious reasons. So snakes like the Australian Black snakes (Pseudechis sp.) are generally immune to the venoms of the snakes that they prey on. However I found a recent article (quoted below) in which Australian Copperheads (not related to copperheads in the US) succumbed to the venom of another copperhead. Copperheads are known to be snake eaters, which seems odd.


I like tattoos if they are tastefully done and small.  There is such a thing as too big and too many.


Yes this is true but be aware that some are scams.  The best way to find out is to call your local Fraud office and they can check it for you.  But most are on the up and up.  I have tried it before and it was cool to enjoy all that shopping and get reimbursed for it.  So in other words Having fun, spending money, enjoying oneself, and getting paid to do so.  It is just that it may take a while to get reimbursed unless the company has a quicker way to give you your money faster.  The receipts are the way to prove that you have purchased those items or services and that is what they go by.  So you get paid to shop and become a critic of certain businesses which these businesses pay these companies to conduct surveys and let them know what they are doing good and what they need to improve on.

Without referencing religion/bible/god... why shouldn’t gay marriage be legal in the US?

This is a very good question and I don't believe that it can be asked too many times. The more we all think about prejudice and hatred, the quicker it will go away. I also like that you put in the stipulation that there be no reference to religion. In a country that was founded on the principles of freedom and equality, the use of religion as a way to shoot down a political issue just flabergasts me. This is 100% a legal issue and not a religious one. Gays and lesbians know that they cannot force a church to accept them if it doesn't want to. However, they should be able to force the government to accept them. Why else do they all pay those taxes if not for a little acceptance and protection now and again?\n\nThe issue of gay marriage as is brought up most frequently can really be boiled down to the question of does the government offer legal protection to all of its citizens regardless of race, religion, creed, or anything else. The fact that gay marriage has not been put into effect is evidence that, no, the American government does not offer this protection to all of its citizens. This is a travesty. \n\nI will admit that for religious people in America, the word "marriage" does have some very high emotional weight attached to it and this is a big part of the problem. The word "marriage" should be stricken from all legal and official documents and state proceedings to avoid any confusion about the issue. If marriage were really only reserved as a ceremony to be done in a church or other place of worship particular to the participants wishes, and (let's call it this for now) legal partnerships were to be reserverd for the legal and governmental arenas, then this whole issue could be resolved with a little less spit and venom. \n\nThere is no rational reason that anyone can give for discriminating against another human being. Please do this test; the next time you find yourself saying anything negative about a group of people (gay or otherwise) please replace the word Jewish or black into the blank and see if you are still comfortable saying it. If not, then it may be time to reasses your value system and beliefs into one that is more tolerant and loving towards all humanity. \n\nLove and Peace!

how much is a pound of dimes worth? and how much is a pound of nickles worth?

Take it to your bank and desposit it.  They'll hate you, but their legally obligated to take it, I hear.  That's what "all debts, public and private" means!\n\nAccording to the US Mint, a nickel weighs 5 grams even and a dime weighs 2.268 g.\n\n(Yes, purists, I know grams ain't weight, but "masses" ain't a word!)\n\nKeep in mind your numbers have only one significant digit!  (i.e., if you want better accuracy, I need numbers more accurate than "20" and "30".  How about "21.3" or something?)  Playing with the numbers gives us:\n\nNickels:  ~2000, or $100\nDimes:  ~4000, or $400

If a train was to move so it would approach the speed of light ,would it turn into pure energy?

no, actually it would become pure mass. you will be adding infinite energy and that energy will transform into mass so you would have an ever stretching train, and of course it will break into pieces and the pressures will make the train explode making it energy... so changing my original answer, if your train is breakable, it will turn into pure energy, it will burst into pieces destroying the railroad and everything around it ^^

no, i have interviewed many homeless people for projects and what i noticed is that many of them are war vets, elderly  and mentally ill people, that were abadoned by their own families and government. in addition, a percentage of them don't want to work, they are lazy and passive, they could care less about getting a job. In fact there was one perticular lady who would stand in front of my local grocery store and beg for money,  the manager offered her a job as a cashier, but she declined she said she would make more begging, than working. i was stunned about how much she made and how she spends her money (drugs and alcohol).

I've been married for two years,am not using contraception and have regular peiods. Why can't I get pregnant?

I know a lot of people have said see a doctor - but you must think that means starting IVF or anything.  They will give you a scan to make sure all looks ok inside & the will take blood to make sure your hormones are doing their job & check you are ovulating.\n\nThe can also do a procudire (I cant remember the name) to put dye in your bits & picture it, which has the added effect often of clearing out little blockages.\n\nif non of that works & your man has a test to make sure his sperm swim the right way then you can have drugs to help you ovulate but not go ddonw the IVF route.\n\nGood luck.

Why Do They Wear Protective Clothes From Head To Toe When They Discover A Bird With H5N1 Virus???

It is a protective measure.  If the virus has mutated, the handler takes a risk of becoming infected by the virus. There are also other diseases that birds may carry that can infect humans.\n\nCooking infected meat kills the virus, so it no longer poses any real danger.  And yes, if you're planning on preparing a chicken that was infected, it would be a good idea to suit up.  Keep in mind though, that most birds that enter the food supply are not infected, or did not die as a result of being infected.  Birds that die before being slaughtered are not used for human consumption (not in the U.S., anyway).  These birds are either destroyed, or in some cases used for pet food.


when in a fight what is more important:speed, accuracy, or strength?

If I'm gonna choose one, I choose speed, for a simple reason.\n\nFighters get power on speed. The faster you strike, the more painful in the receiving end. The more massive strikes you land on your enemy, the more it wears you down. Strength is good but when you encounter speedy fighters, they tear you bit by bit. Accuracy is important but when you fight speedy fighters, you'll have a hard time hitting correct spots if he's too fast.\n\nSpeed is might.

What do you do to calm down when your not a patient person and your dealing with your kid ?

Well, I am a 38 year old woman with 4 kids...5 if you count the Hubby, and what I have found that works best for me is to give myself a time out.  If the child is an infant or toddler I put them in a crib or someplace they are confined so they won't get hurt. If they are 5 and up.....they go stay in their room and play....then I take 10 to 15 minutes to relax........I sit on my bed and read a book or magazine, or go in the bathroom and play with my hair, take a shower....talk on the phone......and stay completely away from my children for that amount of time......I have found giving them a time out is only more of an argument and more frustrating for me.....so, I take the time out, and when I am calm I go back and start with a fresh outlook.  It is not easy, but it has saved the lives of our 19, 16, 15, and 6 year olds many times......TEE HEE...Good Luck!

Should Scott Proctor be in the starting rotation or do you think he has been too valuable as a long relief guy

The question is, who would you replace in the rotation.\n\nJohnson, Mussina, and Wang are locks. I would certainly leave Chacon alone in the 4 spot. I guess you could make a case for replacing Wright, but they have paid him an awful lot of money to not start. You also have Pavano and Small coming back soon. I would leave Proctor where he is in the pen and let him come in and throw his hesat for an inning or two at most.\n\nNot to mention you gotta leave a spot open for the rocket \n;-)

I dunno, I kind think its cool personally. It's only for two weeks, so its not like this is permanent. And you know how AS loves to mess with its schedule. It brings back memories. I can understand, however, why it might depress you. ATHF is still on this week though, so you can still watch that. And personally, I get tired of watching the same episodes of Sealab over and over because honestly, there really aren't that many. Its nice to watch something else for a bit, spice things up.

What are the fundamental differences between the Republican and Democratic parties?

How do I send email that cannot be traced?

You need to use a remailer.  Normally this takes the form of an e-mail address you can send e-mail to with your message.  You put the address etc into the body of the e-mail in a particular way and when it arives at the re-mailer address it is sent to that address.\n\nYou can also chain remailers so increasing the untraceability of your message.  Just look up remailer on Google or Yahoo for some remailer services.


HPLC is High Performance/Pressure Liquid Chromatography.\nThe liquid sample is loaded onto the chromatography column, which is packed with a stationary phase.\nA mobile phase (solvent which is flushed through the column) is then flushed through the column.\nThe different components are then eluted separately, depending on their characteristics and the type of stationary phase and mobile phase being used.\n\nThe HPLC machine can be interfaced with something like an NMR machine to give a detailed breakdown of each fraction.

Why do men cheat and then act like the women did the cheating?

To take the focus off off themselves.  If they put the focus on their partner their partner may not pay as close attention to signs that they are really the ones doing the wrong.  It may aslo make them feel like they have justified their wrong doing although two wrongs never make a right.
