The first known use of numbers dates back to around 30000 BC when tally marks were used by stone age peoples. The earliest known example is from a cave in Southern Africa.This system had no concept of base, which limited its representation of large numbers. The first known system with a base was the Mesopotamian base 60 system (ca. 3400 BC) and the earliest known base 10 system dates to 3100 BC in Egypt.

What enzymes and metabolic reactions would be slowed in an individual with Beriberi disease?

Beriberi disease is caused by a thiamine (vitamin-B) deficiency. The biologically useful form of thiamine is called TPP or thiamine pyrophosphate (or TDP- thiamine diphosphate), and it is used in biological processes, like the Krebs Cycle and the Pentose Phosphate Pathway. \n\nThiamine pyrophosphate (TPP) is a coenzyme for pyruvate dehydrogenase, α-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase and transketolase. The first two of these enzymes function in the metabolism of carbohydrates, while transketolase functions in the pentose phosphate pathway to synthesize NADPH and the pentose sugars deoxyribose and ribose. TPP is synthesized by the enzyme thiamine pyrophosphokinase, which requires free thiamine, magnesium, and adenosine triphosphate. It is yet unclear exactly how thiamine plays a role in neurological function, but it is found in nerves and in the brain and the lack of it causes neurological disorders.


What is network analysis under operation research?

Network analysis\nIntroduction\nNetwork analysis is the general name given to certain specific techniques which can be used for the planning, management and control of projects. One definition of a project (from the Project Management Institute) is \n\nA project is a temporary endeavour undertaken to create a "unique" product or service\n\nThis definition serves to highlight some essential features of a project\n\nit is temporary - it has a beginning and an end \nit is "unique" in some way \nWith regard to the use of the word unique I personally prefer to use the idea of "non-repetitive" or "non-routine", e.g. building the very first Boeing Jumbo jet was a project - building them now is a repetitive/routine manufacturing process, not a project.\n\nWe can think of many projects in real-life, e.g. building the Channel tunnel, building the London Eye, developing a new drug, etc\n\nTypically all projects can be broken down into: \n\nseparate activities (tasks/jobs) - where each activity has an associated duration or completion time (i.e. the time from the start of the activity to its finish) \nprecedence relationships - which govern the order in which we may perform the activities, e.g. in a project concerned with building a house the activity "erect all four walls" must be finished before the activity "put roof on" can start \nand the problem is to bring all these activities together in a coherent fashion to complete the project. \n\nTwo different techniques for network analysis were developed independently in the late 1950's - these were: \n\nPERT (for Program Evaluation and Review Technique); and \nCPM (for Critical Path Management). \nPERT was developed to aid the US Navy in the planning and control of its Polaris missile program . This was a project to build a strategic weapons system, namely the first submarine launched intercontinental ballistic missile, at the time of the Cold War between the USA and Russia. Military doctrine at that time emphasised 'MAD - mutually assured destruction', namely if the other side struck first then sufficient nuclear weapons would remain to obliterate their homeland. That way peace was preserved. By the late 1950s the USA believed (or more importantly believed that the Russians believed) that American land based missiles and nuclear bombers were vulnerable to a first strike. Hence there was a strategic emphasis on completing the Polaris project as quickly as possible, cost was not an issue. However no one had ever build a submarine launched intercontinental ballistic missile before, so dealing with uncertainty was a key issue. PERT has the ability to cope with uncertain activity completion times (e.g. for a particular activity the most likely completion time is 4 weeks but it could be any time between 3 weeks and 8 weeks). \n\nCPM was developed in the 1950's as a result of a joint effort by the DuPont Company and Remington Rand Univac. As these were commercial companies cost was an issue, unlike the Polaris project mentioned above. In CPM the emphasis is on the trade-off between the cost of the project and its overall completion time (e.g. for certain activities it may be possible to decrease their completion times by spending more money - how does this affect the overall completion time of the project?) \n\nModern commercial software packages tend to blur the distinction between PERT and CPM and include options for uncertain activity completion times and project completion time/project cost trade-off analysis. Note here that many such packages exist for doing network analysis. \n\nThere is no clear terminology in the literature and you will see this area referred to by the phrases: network analysis, PERT, CPM, PERT/CPM, critical path analysis and project planning. \n\nNetwork analysis is a vital technique in PROJECT MANAGEMENT. It enables us to take a systematic quantitative structured approach to the problem of mana


What do you wear on a feld trip where you will meat lots of cute boys.?

I hope you meant M-E-E-T.\n\nAnd actually it depends on the weather.  And it depends on your age.\n\nFind out what the other girls are wearing and step it up a notch.  Also, find your good point, butt, legs, eyes, breasts, etc, and flaunt it.  \n\nDon't go overboard on the boobs thing.  I, as a man, am by now bored with the pushed up to the extreme thing.  It looks cheap and so 90s.  \n\nAnd don't be too casual.  We Americans think casual is the only thing to where these days.  But I think people are cheating themselves be not wearing somthing a little nicer once in a while.  When I lived overseas, I felt like a fool sometimes because I only had casual clothes.\n\nThink sexy plus classy.\n\nAnd wear a smile.  So many women these day repel men with their sour, selfish, snobby looking faces.  \n\nAnd trust me, the girl who has a man is happier than one without, despite what the militants would have you believe.  \n\nAlso, be careful who you choose.  Don't choose an arrogant one even though they may seem cool.  You might be more appreciated if you choose a more humble regular guy.


why does it hurt so bad when a girl breaks your heart but you still KNOW she's not worth the hurt?

It's a tough road buddy, unfortuantely, it doesn't sound like she's mature enough to deal with the situation. DO you really wont to be with someone that you 1) Can't Trust 2) Can't honestly expect the truth from. Fortuantely for you , you've found this out before you were married, it doesn't make the hurt stop but it does make it easier to deal with. Keep reminding yourself you are worth more, that you tried your best, but don't ever settle. You deserve more, you seem like a rare good guy. There are good and bad people in the world, but we have to weed through alot of bad people to find the one good person. Good Luck.

Hi, my daughters name is Mercedes. Look, I am a manager in a restaurant and see it everyday. Don't worry about it. You are there to make money, not friends. If you make a friend in the process, great. Keep focus, do your job and the only ones you need to pay attention to is your boss(es). They sign your check, they give raises, they are the ones that are there for YOU. It is THEIR job to be there for YOU!

What is better for  three years old boy, to be in a Kindergarten of his language or an English one?

Children pick up language a lot easier than adults do.  If you think he will need English, send him to that school.  It's always good to know more than one language.  It expands the mind.  It will help his vocabulary.  As a previous poster said, just work with him on his native language at home and the teacher at school will work on the English with him and you will have a bright, bilingual kid!

What is the life expectancy for a person with onset of alzheimers at age 60?

That's really a hard one to answer, because there really are no answers. It really all depends on the person, and how rapidly they decline. My father-in-law had Alzheimer's and was diagnosed in his mid 70's, but he was showing signs on the disease for 2 to 3 years prior to.  He went from beginning stage to mid stage in about 4 to 5 years, but his doctors (neurologist and family), stated that it could take up to 10 years to get to end stage, depending on his progression rate. The best thing to do is to see a neurologist and get an MRI done, and they can evaluate the brain deterioration, and give you a clearer picture as to the progression.

My son does not understand algebra, I dont either. Where can we get help?

The school may provide a program, that is the best bet.  You can check with the school board, or can raise the issue at parent and teacher conferences.  If that fails, you can try algebra made easy books.  I hope this is helpful, and your son comes to understand it, just keep with it, it will sink in.


are there any safe natural ways for penis enlargement?

I recommend using the Andro Penis medical traction device to permanently expand the blood-carrying chambers (the largest being the corpus cavernosa) of the penis.\n\nUse the Andro Penis device 4-9 hours per day for 3-6 months. You will have time-linear flaccid and erect gains in length and some girth gains as well. The flaccid gains appear first. If you want additional girth gains than what you get with the Andro, you should use a PowerJelq device for 10-15 minutes a day to supplement it.\n\nI've gained permanently 1.75" length and 1" girth since June 2005 through the use of the Andro Penis and (very occassionally) PowerJelq for exercises. I'm very pleased with these results. Try it, and you will be happy to see serious gains after 3-6 months usage.\n\nThere is some information about extenders in general and on proven jelqing techniques on a website called the men's forum. (in regards to jelqing, 15 minutes of PowerJelq device equals 2 hours of manual exercise). This is a commercial website with a forum, and they relabel their extender product Size Genetics. I'm not sure if they use the JES extender or the Andro. However, in any case the Andro is the best extender product because of the more comfortable silicon band design which is not present on other brand extenders. The site forum discusses common issues with the product, the most common are 1) how to make wearing the product more comfortable 2) how to effectively secure the product 3) when and how long you can use the product. Generally the answers to these 3 issues are: 1) use the padding band over your glans before putting it in the silicone band 2) use some padding or other material to prevent slippage of the glans out of the band 3) have a rest period every 2 hours at least, and massage yourself during that time to ensure good blood flow. Don't use the device while sleeping (you won't have the required massage break every 2 hrs). The manual that comes with the Andro has adequate information on what to do and what not to do.\n\nSide note about purchasing this item: you can usually buy this item on Ebay for about 1/2 the cost of other websites. Make sure to shop for the best price. I paid $150. My package included pills, but I never used the pills and I've still gained 1.75", 1" girth in 7 months.\n\nSee the link for a study on men using the device. It indicates an average growth per month of around .47 cm in length. Also, after six months, a "median minimum gain" of 2.8 cm.\n\nAlso, I believe it is helpful to perform PC (kegel) exercises to strengthen the PC muscle. You will be enlarging yourself quite significantly and you want to maintain very strong erection strength and stamina which are controlled by the pubococcyl muscle.\n\nIf you need more information let me know.\n\n\nIn regards to Just's comment: the penis is not primarily a muscle. It is a set of spongy blood-filled chambers. These chambers can be expanded by traction, not by exercise. There is one ligamentary muscle that runs from the base towards the glans; this muscle can be stretched and conditioned, to a very limited degree.


I totally agree with you , the media  has a very strong influence on the war as they do with everything else, and they are all biased  ,mostly  in a liberal way, so they show the bad affects of war  since they don't believe we should  be there at all, when its really not that necessary to show the bad affects of war, every one knows that war   hurts , kills etc,   but they  refuse to show the good the soldiers and civilians are doing over there, or to publish stories direct from  the soldiers that witness and participate in goodwill over there...the media has its agenda... and  furthering that  agenda is all they will report


for a sample teaching session, what can i teach to 4th graders in 5 minutes?

5 minutes FLIES by when you're teaching.  If you're doing Teach for America or a Teaching Fellows program, you'll be in a group of 10-12 other people.  You could give them each a line of a simple poem and have them line themselves up in the order they think the poem should go.  Once they agree on an order (I'd give them about a minute and use a timer), have them read their sentences in the order they decided.  Then you could have a discussion of why they put it in this order.  (i.e. why the story flows that way, what changes they might make having heard it, maybe how the tone changes when the sentences switch).\nAt the end you could read the poem how it was written as a conclusion.  If time, let the students reflect on the experience.\n\nAnyhow, hope this helps.  Good luck with your sample lesson!!

That's good advice about the balance work with family...\n\nI'd add that many people depend on their employer to promote them and give them raises to make it seem like their career is advancing.  That's a mistake in this day and age.\n\nFigure out who you are first; what makes you happy; what kind of lifestyle you want to have, what makes you feel alive.\n\nPick a career path that challenges you and excites you, not necessarily what everyone else seems to want.\n\nFind out what the market demands and make sure that you stay on those trends.  That way, you'll either be in the most demand by your employer, or else another employer will always want you.

Is California as crazy with it's gun laws as i have been told?

Stop the craziness.  . . end violence.  A regular citizen has no need to own a handgun.  Read the statistics and you'll see what I mean-- regular domestic squabbles turn into murders when there's a handgun available. . . burglars who break in use homeowners' own guns to kill them. . . kids who are shoplifting a candy bar are shot to death by vigilantes (yes, shoplifitng is wrong, but not worthy of MURDER. . .)  Please please rethink your reason for owning a gun.  Until there are psychiatric tests given when people want to buy guns, there will be more and more violence.  You don't need a gun to be a real man.

is there an danger in dialysis process for kidney patients?

Well the risks include infection and bleeding during the dialysis access placement (either catheter or fistula surgery). These are relatively small.  Dialysis in general is quite safe.  There are many risks of long term dilysis to talk with your dad's doctor about, but the bottom line is you can't live without it, so whatever the risks, the benefits outweigh them.  Only other option for your dad is kidney transplant. Did you discuss this with your nephrologist? Good luck.

why is it you put your two cents in, but a only a penny for your thought?

Aaaah....now you have unearthed the massive conspiracy known as capitalism of proverbs.  It's a plan cooked up by the big cheeses and fermented wines of large corporations [i.e., McDonald's and McMickey's and McGoofy's] to hack into your bank account and withdraw one penny every time you use the respective adages.  After you use the proverbs enough times, they will have withdrawn enough money to launch a new branch of restaurants.  These restaurants will churn out fried bits of cardboard for the general public, thus generating more income for the big cheeses and fermented wines.  And Elmer Fudd shall rule the universe.  \n\n\n\nWould you like fries with that?


I just want to add about effect of stress to menstruation. Stress is causing an unbalanced hormone production, not to mention reproduction hormone, such as FSH & estrogen.

Your sister has a small chance but even that is small, most guys in HS, seniors wouldn't date someone your age except for one thing and one thing only. Remember they are much closer to adulthood than you are, and can also get in legal trouble if they did do anything with you. Forget about him and stick to guys closer to your own age.

I have to give a speech over a national concern. I need a topic that is not complicated.  HELP!!?

First: Choose an issue that you are intersted in and/or that affects your audience.  Your audience will know if you are detatched from your subject.  \n\nThen: Choose one aspect of that issue.  For example if you decide to do something about social security and you are a young student, you might want to focus on the effects of the baby boom generation on the likelyhood that you will be able to collect social security when you retire.  This may sound complicated, but it will help you in two ways: \n\n1.  It will help you lower the amount of informationyou have to go through.\n\n2.  It will allow you to thouroughly cover your topic in a small amount of time (I am assuming that you are a student doing this for a class and don't have a lot of time)


What teams in the NFL went the whole year without a victory?


How many people are against teaching evolution in schools? (in america)?

Alright I will jump into this. Bombs Away! I know some hot heads will respond but I live in a country where free speech is a given right.\nSo here I go.\nEvolution in and of itself has never been proven. Do the research for yourself. The faith that it takes to believe all of the scattered pieces of science ( which by the way changes daily) fit into one theory is enormous. There are people who wholeheartedly believe that science makes everything factual. It doesn't. Science is like a river, constantly changing even with the basic elements in tact.\nSo for it to be taught as a fact is wrong,wrong,wrong. \nYes,evolution should be tought, but as a scientific theory, and not the final word for all mankind.


What are common characteristics of a cult?

Here is some of the charts of it when doing a paper on them...\n\nCharacteristics Associated with Cultic Groups - Revised\nJanja Lalich, Ph.D. & Michael D. Langone, Ph.D.\n \nConcerted efforts at influence and control lie at the core of cultic groups, programs, and relationships. Many members, former members, and supporters of cults are not fully aware of the extent to which members may have been manipulated, exploited, even abused. The following list of social-structural, social-psychological, and interpersonal behavioral patterns commonly found in cultic environments may be helpful in assessing a particular group or relationship.\nCompare these patterns to the situation you were in (or in which you, a family member, or friend is currently involved). This list may help you determine if there is cause for concern. Bear in mind that this list is not meant to be a “cult scale” or a definitive checklist to determine if a specific group is a cult. This is not so much a diagnostic instrument as it is an analytical tool.\n  The group displays excessively zealous and unquestioning commitment to its leader and (whether he is alive or dead) regards his belief system, ideology, and practices as the Truth, as law. \n  Questioning, doubt, and dissent are discouraged or even punished.\n  Mind-altering practices (such as meditation, chanting, speaking in tongues, denunciation sessions, and debilitating work routines) are used in excess and serve to suppress doubts about the group and its leader(s).\n  The leadership dictates, sometimes in great detail, how members should think, act, and feel (for example, members must get permission to date, change jobs, marry—or leaders prescribe what types of clothes to wear, where to live, whether or not to have children, how to discipline children, and so forth). \n  The group is elitist, claiming a special, exalted status for itself, its leader(s) and members (for example, the leader is considered the Messiah, a special being, an avatar—or the group and/or the leader is on a special mission to save humanity). \n  The group has a polarized us-versus-them mentality, which may cause conflict with the wider society.\n  The leader is not accountable to any authorities (unlike, for example, teachers, military commanders or ministers, priests, monks, and rabbis of mainstream religious denominations).\n  The group teaches or implies that its supposedly exalted ends justify whatever means it deems necessary. This may result in members' participating in behaviors or activities they would have considered reprehensible or unethical before joining the group (for example, lying to family or friends, or collecting money for bogus charities).\n  The leadership induces feelings of shame and/or guilt in order to influence and/or control members. Often, this is done through peer pressure and subtle forms of persuasion.\n  Subservience to the leader or group requires members to cut ties with family and friends, and radically alter the personal goals and activities they had before joining the group.\n  The group is preoccupied with bringing in new members. \n  The group is preoccupied with making money. \n  Members are expected to devote inordinate amounts of time to the group and group-related activities.\n  Members are encouraged or required to live and/or socialize only with other group members.\n  The most loyal members (the “true believers”) feel there can be no life outside the context of the group. They believe there is no other way to be, and often fear reprisals to themselves or others if they leave (or even consider leaving) the group.\n\n\n\nCharacteristics of a Destructive Cult:\n1. Authoritarian pyramid structure with authority at the top \n2. Charismatic or messianic leader(s) (Messianic meaning they either say they are God OR that they alone can interpret the scriptures the way God intended.....the leaders are self-appointed.) \n3. Deception in rec

Does anyone know what restrictive airway disease is?

Restrictive airway disease is not a specific disease - its a term to describe any condition that decreases your ability to get air into your lungs.   It could be from a condition like scoliosis (an abnormal curving of the spine) which basically "squishes" the lungs, or from a problem with the lungs themselves, like pulmonary fibrosis.   But basically, it means your friend may have difficulty getting a big breath in, and may get short of breath during regular activities.

why does the letter K represent a strikeout in baseball?

On a baseball score card you can only enter one letter to represent what just happened. Most of the time it is the first letter, but in the case of strike, the s is already used for another action (sacrifice,I think) so they use the k from the word strike to represent it. It's been a while since I've seen a baseball score card, so someone may correct me.


c-deficile,is a bactrial infecion from an antibitic.Need to know more.where to look?

Clostridium difficile, or C. difficile (a gram-positive anaerobic bacterium), is now recognized as the major causative agent of colitis (inflammation of the colon) and diarrhea that may occur following antibiotic intake. C. difficile infection represents one of the most common hospital (nosocomial) infections around the world. In the United States alone, it causes approximately three million cases of diarrhea and colitis per year. This bacterium is primarily acquired in hospitals and chronic care facilities following antibiotic therapy covering a wide variety of bacteria (broad-spectrum) and is the most frequent cause of outbreaks of diarrhea in hospitalized patients. One of the main characteristics of C. difficile-associated colitis is severe inflammation in the colonic tissue (mucosa) associated with destruction of cells of the colon (colonocytes). \n\nThe disease involves, initially, alterations of the beneficial bacteria, which are normally found in the colon, by antibiotic therapy. The alterations lead to colonization by C. difficile when this bacterium or its spores are present in the environment. In hospitals or nursing home facilities where C. difficile is prevalent and patients frequently receive antibiotics, C. difficile infection is very common. In contrast, individuals treated with antibiotics as outpatients have a much smaller risk of developing C. difficile infection. Laboratory studies show that when C. difficile colonize the gut, they release two potent toxins, toxin A and toxin B, which bind to certain receptors in the lining of the colon and ultimately cause diarrhea and inflammation of the large intestine, or colon (colitis). Thus, the toxins are involved in the pathogenesis, or development of the disease.

An aldose is a compound with a CHO functional group (C double bonded to Oxygen and then single bonded to Hydrogen).


how do you ask a boy out when you know that he will say no??


Although no casting has taken place, a number of actors have been rumoured for the roles of Hannibal, Murdock, Face and B.A.. The possible actors given below are just that, possible actors, based more on suitability for the role than anything else. There would probably also be a lead female role (possibly Amy Allen-esque), but this is just speculation.\n\n\n\n\nJohn "Hannibal" Smith\nMel Gibson\n Previous Films: Mad Max 1-3, Lethal Weapon 1-4, Braveheart, Payback, The Patriot.\nAge: 46.\nGibson would be perfectly cast as the cigar-chomping leader of The A-Team, Hannibal. He has the perfect face for the role, with eyes that show a lurking craziness. He would be perfectly believable as Hannibal when "on the jazz".\n\nThe only problem with casting Gibson is his high asking fee (rumoured to be around $20m). He is also currently shooting one Vietnam war film ("We Were Soldiers"), and may be reluctant to take on another film based, however loosely, on Vietnam.\n\nTommy Lee Jones\n Previous Films: The Fugitive, US Marshalls, Space Cowboys, Men in Black 1-2.\nAge: 55.\nJones is a versatile actor (compare 'The Fugitive' [for which he won an oscar] to 'Men in Black') and would probably be able to play the role of Hannibal. However, whether he has the on-screen charisma to do George Peppard justice is debatable.\n\nJones probably commands a far lower asking fee than Gibson, and his age is more suited to the role.\n\nH.M. Murdock\nJim Carrey\n Previous Films: The Mask, Ace Ventura, The Truman Show, Man on the Moon.\nAge: 40.\nCarrey can do wacky comedy. Whether you like him or not is an entirely different matter. Personally I'm not a fan, but recently his films have taken darker, more serious tones ('The Cable Guy', 'The Truman Show', 'Man on the Moon') and these roles have impressed many people. There aren't too many candidates to play Murdock as is, so Carrey seems to be the firm favourite for the role. \n\nCarrey also commands a high asking price, and any film containing him and another expensive star (e.g. Gibson) would be prohibitively expensive.\n\nTempleton "Face" Peck\nChristian Bale\n Previous Films: Empire of the Sun, American Psycho, Captain Corelli's Mandolin.\nAge: 28.\nBale would be an excellent choice for Face, having the looks for the role and also the charisma. His previous roles have impressed me ('Captain Corelli's Mandolin' was a poor film, but he still managed to stand out), and in 'American Psycho' he demonstrated good comic timing.\n\nWhether Bale would ever consider doing a film like 'The A-Team' is debatable. He tends to choose deeper roles, and selects them carefully. However, a sure-fire Box Office smash may prove tempting.\n\n B.A. Baracus\nMr. T\n Previous Roles: The A-Team.\nAge: 49.\nAs far as I am concerned, there is only one actor for the role of B.A., and that is Mr. T. B.A. was T., and T. was B.A.. The two are forever linked, and if anyone else tried to impersonate Mr. T doing B.A., then the effects could be disastrous.\n\nT. is the youngest of the former cast, and at 49 is by no means too old for the role. He's still looking good, and he could never lose that "acting" ability. T. would also perform another vital function, by linking the old Team to the new one, and therefore excluding alienation of old fans from the motion picture.\n\nCan't wait- I love the A- Team!

On 9/11 would the hijackers have had problems relocating New York after turning the jet around?

The Boeing 767 is equipped with "triple INS" which is a navigation system that updates the aircraft's position on a continuous basis and allows it to be flown directly to any point on the earth.  Anyone knowing the basics of INS navigation could have easily flown those planes to New York, Washington DC, Katmandu or anywhere else.\n\nHowever, there is a simpler explanation in this case.  Both of the planes that hit the WTC towers were hijacked over eastern Massachusetts.  The hijackers then simply flew down the Hudson River to Manhattan.\n\nIn the case of the other two aircraft, there isn't an easy answer, (since there isn't a river to follow directly) but both of them apparantly got lost enroute.\n\nBTW: This is an excellent example of how the two New York attacks were carried out completely differently from the Washington DC attacks.

Why is a caffeinated soft drink a bad refresher on a hot day?

If it is the only option for hydration, then it is necessary.  If you have other options, you should ingest them as caffiene is diuretic which facilitates the movement of water through the boby quicker.  This leads to less use of the water in your body and more urination.  Water with a small amount of electrolytes (or 1 part Gatorade/Sport Drink cut with 2 parts water) is still the best for hydration.

What is the advantages and disadvantages of cash?

Advantages: \n1. Everyone accepts it (and loves it too)\n2. In a transaction, using cash is a final deal (unlike cashing a check)\n3. In a transaction, there are no service fees using cash (unlike accepting credit cards)\n\nDisadvantages:\n1. It can be dirty\n2. You can lose it or have it stolen from you\n3. You could spend it too fast\n4. If you have much cash to carry, it can get heavy or bulky\n5. Cash can be counterfeit\n\nThere are probably a few more, but this covers most of my opinion about cash.

What is the best insurance coverage for the second home condo use for seasoanl rental?

You NEED full liability insurance. The amount should be enough to protect your Assets. If some one hurts themeself at your rental property, there needs to be enough insurance, so that they do not come after your assets. If you have a standard (150/300 or 300/500) on that property, you might be able to get an umbrella to extent all of your coverages ( your primary as well) to a million or more. You also have to check with your insurer to make sure that the fact that this property is rented  does not invalidate it for the coverage you are purchasing

Is splitting an infinitive a mortal sin?

There NEVER was a rule against splitting infinitives. Years ago, somebody thought that because Latin infinitives can't be split (because they are a single word), that English infinitives can't be split. Some how this ridiculous idea caught on, and some teachers took up the cause.\n\nIt is not a rule. Never was a rule. Put the adverb wherever it will be most effective without adding ambiguity.\n\nCan you imagine this sentence without the split infinitive:\nYou can expect to more than double your earnings.

how do i find legitimate work from home with no initial fees ie envelope stuffing or typing?

There is an initial fee with this one, but you own the web business you create.\n\nIf it's not for you, ok.  If it is, you can earn some extra income from home without having a boss or deadlines.  I did it.  Here's a link to my site:  http://www.professional-resume-example.com.\n\nI'm a 40 year old mother of two and I have no web design or html experience, yet if you look at my site, you'll see that it's as professional as anything out there.  The reason, though, is that the program I used to build my site provides everything I need to create a great site.\n\nIt does take time and effort and you have to pick a topic for your site that you are knowledgable about or that you are really passionate about.  Then, you just write about what you love.  \n\nAnyway, it's something to think about.  It's not for everyone.  My sister would rather eat liver than sit at a computer for a few hours a day.  :)

That's a difficult thing to accomplish in court.  The judge frowns on that for sure.\n\nYou need to start with the Human Resources Department.  They can give you the phone number for Legal Aid.

And judges don't allow for credit card bills, accounts with Sears, Penneys, etc. The child comes first.  \n\nI've heard of people having their child support payments raised after attempting to get them lowered, so you need to be sure you are a poverty case before you go in.\n\nYou can't have a new boat, snowmobile, 4 wheeler, etc. And whatever you do, don't lie about anything...\n\nThere may be a certain percentage of your pay that has to go on child support.

What is the best way to get Hardrock ABS?

You have two options. You can cut calories and perform crunches like crazy, try one of the hot new incredible infomercial ab devices and buy a “fat burner”, Also there is another  option but it is not too popular. Eat right, Understand functions of the abdominal muscles, work the body as a whole, and allow for ongoing fat release. Of all of two options, there is only one that "works," all of the time. Unfortunately, it “appears” to be the most complicated. \n\nHere is the Real Ab-Solution:\n\nBefore we go any further, I would like to point out that slimming down your abdominal parts REALLY means reducing you body fat percentage in those areas. Therefore, the goal is to reduce your body fat percentage.  \n\nNow that we understand what we are seeking, let us zero in on the solution.\n\nStep 1: Eat right to release the fat from the fat cells\n\n"Eat right" sounds so simplistic, but the idea is maximize natural unprocessed foods and minimize processed or junk foods (Please do not go on a depravation diet, it will make things worse). However, you also need to eat in a way that supports Fat loss.\n\nThe real trick lies in stabilizing blood sugar, which allows fat to be released from your fat cells. You would do that by eating meals free from simple sugars and refined carbs, low in processed saturated fat, and balanced with protein, complex carbs, fiber, and essential fatty acids. \n\nStep 2: Move your body to burn the fat in the muscle cells.\n\nOnce the fat is release from the cells, they need to be burned in your muscle cells. Releasing the body fat is not enough; you need to support your nutrition with a more active lifestyle. If you are not active, the released fat just goes back to the fat cells and they are not burned. Burning that fat make your “six packs” visible. You not only need to work on your abs or core muscles but you also need to work you the body as a whole (focus on the major muscles like your legs and back).\n\nThen you need to optimize circulation with moderate aerobic exercise (do not go crazy), and fat release should be consistent and ongoing, and a little at a time, those abs will shine through.\n\nDO NOT continue doing something just because "THEY" say it's the way things should be done. Allow yourself to choose the solution that will work for you, regardless of what it may be. The only way for you to know who is right is to measure your progress and ACTUALLY track your results.\n\nCHANGE IS HARD, but it's also worth it. Not getting results makes change EXTREMELY HARD.\n\nGet support from friends, family or a coach. Losing weight is not as hard at it seems once you know what to do. Stop now and sign up to my Forbidden Weight loss Secrets blog at http://www.charlesblain.com because you will receive weight loss secrets that you will not get anywhere else. The result will be that body that you’ve always wanted.\n\nGood Luck with your journey…\n\nhttp://www.newjerseypersonaltrainer.com

Who was Herod of Agrippa and where did he rule?

HEROD AGRIPPA\nKing of Iturea and Galilee, 37 CE\nKing of Judea, 41- 44 CE\n\nBorn: c.10 BCE Died: 44 CE     \nHeritage: Maccabean    \nFaith:  Jewish \n\nFather: Aristobulus   \nMother: Berenice \n\nSpouse:  Cypro   \nChildren: \n          son: Agrippa II\n          dau: Berenice II\n\nHerod Agrippa was sent to Rome as a young boy, as his father was suspect of his Maccabean ancestry. The boy’s education was Roman, and while in Rome he made many friends in high places. Caligula was a close friend, and Claudius was also, later. As an adult, Herod Agrippa returned to his homeland, but his expensive living habits put him deeply in debt. Leaving Judaea with his creditors close behind, he returned to Rome. Tiberius became suspicious and had him jailed. A few months later Caligula became Emperor and released him.\n\nHerod Agrippa acted as arbitor between Roman and Jewish interests. When Caligula tried to have his statues put in the Jewish temple, Agrippa I counseled against it, explaining why the Jews would revolt. Later, he was instrumental in helping Claudius as emperor, again acting as counselor. He was made a king by Caligula, and confirmed by Claudius as King of Judaea. He was a good ruler to the Jews, but had a special dislike for the Christians. It was this Herod Agrippa that executed James the Apostle. He choked to death at the games in Caesaria, much to the relief of the Christians.

Teenage boy needs advice on teenage girls?

Well, the thing about being a teenager is that boys are fickle. For the sake of argument, let's call the girl Stacy.\n\nToday, Stacy is the girl of his dreams, but tomorrow, Becky Jones bumps into him in math class. Becky's not as cute, but she likes your boy. That may earn points with him.\n\nBut wait, there's more. Say Stacy's hot for the school quarterback. Ask your boy if there are other girls he's interested in? I'm betting Stacy isn't the "one and only." Heck, he's 15. \n\nListen, when he goes to college, there will be an wide variety of girls for him to date, and they'll probably be more mature and smarter than Stacy. After all, your boy's only 15. \n\nThere are plenty of girls out there. If Stacy doesn't like him, I'm sure Stacy has friends who are cute. Have him ask one of them out.\n\n20 years down the road? Heck, give him 5. When he's a sophmore in college, he won't be remembering Stacy's last name.

Who invented or discovered the value of pi?

Over the ages of time, Pi has had various names in numbers and symbols since Pi cannot be shown in an exact number of form. People had various variations of what Pi actually was, but to none of them came the answer we still strive to find today.\n\nPi was first mentioned in Egypt. The first reference to Pi was in a Middle Kingdom papyrus scroll written sometime around 1650 BC. This scroll of significance was written by Ahmes. He states at the end of this scroll, which was titled, "The Entrance into Knowledge of All Existing Things," that the area of a circle is found using a rough sort of Pi. Ahmes had no idea how famous Pi would become and the mysteries regarding it.\n\nDuring the time of 200 BC, Archimedes of Syracuse discovered the value of Pi was about 3.14. The Greeks never used decimals, so they wrote it as a fraction back then. Archimedes discovered 3.14 by constructing a polygon with 96 sides and inscribing a circle in it. Although this was an historic discovery, it wasn’t the actual value of Pi. After this discovery, little progress and research was carried out dealing with Pi until the 17th century. Pi was given the title of the Ludolphian number, after a famous German mathematician named Ludolph van Ceulen.\n\nWilliam Jones also made history with Pi by becoming the first person who put the famous label of p on Pi in 1706. The use of p as a symbol of Pi by this English mathematician is still used to this very day and is known as the signature symbol for Pi.


Why are Europe and Asia considered different continents even when they aren't separated by ocean?

They are geologically separated by a tectonic plate boundary. The fact that it runs across land and is on sight one continuous land mass is not an issue.\nIt's the same as India being referred to as the Sub-continent. India is very firmly attached to Asia but again it sits on a separate plate and is not actually part of Asia even if it is moving towards it thereby creating the greatest mountain range in the world.

Ok, and your question is...?\n\nSet it out as a professional letter, ie, your name and address in the top right, his/her name and address below it on the left.\n\nIntroduce yourself if you don't know the president personally, say you are a part of the team, then talk about the team's successes and recent progress.\n\nIN a new paragraph, say that you want to play in the tournament. State what fundraising activities you have done, what you have planned, and how much shortfall you expect. Then ask if he/she would consider sponsoring the team. You'll probably have to offer to keep a poster or banner advertising the company at your benches etc, or register the team under the company's name.\n\nSign the letter like this:\n\n"Hoping to hear of your support,\n\nYours Sincerely,\n\n(signature)\n\n(YOUR NAME)"

Where did the term "south paw" come from??

In every MLB park, except for the White Sox park (whatever it's called now) the pitcher faces in a south-west direction, they are all this direction, the exception in Chicago where the pitcher faces north-east (180 degrees from the others or "opposite") so it minimizes the 'sun factor' being in the players' (and umpires')eyes (especially the pitcher and catcher) for both during the day, and while the sun is setting at night; therefore putting his left arm "facing south", hence the south in southpaw, (obviously paw meaning hand).

please explain the difference in writing academic style and buisness style .what each consist of?

They are very different. \n\nBusiness writing is meant to be very quickly understood. the language should be clear, concise and to the point. don't use academic, descriptively fancy words. Make paragraphs short for readability. make sure your main point comes first and is very clear that this is your main point. Use of bullet points. academic writers would think business writing is blunt, boring, lacks details.\n\nAcademic writing has a formal style, starts with more of an introduction, and is usually much more wordy. there should be a lot wider range of vocabulary than business writing. Main point should still be in the first paragraph, but usually comes after a bit of exposition. As in business writing, each paragraph starts with a differnt point, but have a lot of details, quotes, etc to support the point. Sentences are supposed to flow. Very rarely are there bullet points or any other breaks from sentence structure. business writers would think academic writers are pretentious and wordy.

does anyone here today have sickle cell ?

Sickle Cell Anemia in the US\n- 72,000 cases in America(CBCF Health Organisation, 2004)\n- Most cases occur in those with African ancestors in America (CBCF Health Organisation, 2004)\n- 2 million people carry the sickle cell genetic trait in America (CBCF Health Organisation, 2004)\n- 1 in 12 African Americans carry the sickle cell trait in America (CBCF Health Organisation, 2004)\n- About 91,000 people with sickle cell anemia ("Orphan Products: Hope for People With Rare Diseases", By Carol Rados, FDA Consumer magazine, November-December 2003 Issue) \n\n\nA genetic mutation of hemoglobin called HbS conveys sickle cell anemia. HbS carriers would be selected for because it gives some resistance to malaria. Their red blood cells, containing some abnormal hemoglobin, tend to sickle when they are infected by the malaria parasite. Those infected cells flow through the spleen, which culls them out because of their sickle shape -- and the parasite is eliminated along with them.\n\nSo in malaria infested areas of Africa Sickle Cell anemia is a very real protection against one of the major killers. While children with HbS from both parents die, those with only one set of HbS are somewhat protected against malaria - a valuable enough trait to keep it alive in a population.

The creator of all things was either Re, Amun, Ptah, Khnum or Aten, depending on which version of the myth was currently in use. The heavens were represented by Hathor, Bat, and Horus. Osiris was an earth god as was Ptah. The annual flooding of the Nile was Hapi. Storms, evil and confusion were Seth. His counterpart was Ma'at, who represented balance, justice and truth. The moon was Thoth and Khonsu. Re, the sun god, took on many forms, and transcended most of the borders that contained the other gods. The actual shape of the sun, the disk (or, aten), was deified into another god, Aten. \n\n \n\nAs stated earlier, certain gods were worshipped in different areas. Local cities or villages, known as nomes, often had unique gods that were known only to that region. On occasion, these gods attained country -wide recognition and became the myths and legends that were passed on from century to century. Below is a listing of the main gods and their primary place of worship. \n\nAmaunet - A female counterpart to Amon and one of the primordial gods of the Hermopolitian Ogdoad (group of eight gods). She was also worshipped at Thebes along with Amon and Mut. \n\nAmon - Usually associated with the wind, or things hidden, and was also of the Hermopolitian Ogdoad. At Thebes he became Amon-Re, king of the gods. He was part of the Theban Triad, along with Mut and Khonsu. \n\nAntaios - He was originally a double god, "the two falcons", that was later joined to create one, probably that of Horus. \n\nAnuket - Worshipped at Elephantine, she was associated with the gazelle. \n\nApis - Seen as the bull with a solar disk between its horns, Apis was associated with Osiris and Ptah. \n\nAton - Also known as Aten, he was worshipped at Tell 'Amarna. \n\nAtum - A primordial god that was represented in the form of a human and a serpent. He was the supreme god in the Heliopolitan Ennead (group of nine gods) and formed with Re to create Re-Atum. \n\nHathor - The goddess of love, dance and alcohol was depicted as a cow. At Thebes she was also the goddess of the dead. She was worshipped at Dendera as the consort of Horus and Edfu, and was associated with Isis at Byblos. \n\nHorus - The earliest royal god was the shape of a falcon, with the sun and moon as his eyes. The sky-god was the ruler of the day. The many forms of Horus are; Re-Harakhti, Harsiesis, Haroeris, Harendotes, Khenti-irti, Khentekhtay (the crocodile-god), and Harmakhis, which is Horus on the horizons, in which the Sphinx of Giza is considered to be his aspect. \n\nIsis - The mother of Horus and sister and consort of Osiris was worshipped at Philae. Associated with Astarte, Hathor, Nut and Sothis, she was later worshipped over the entire Roman Empire. \n\nKhnum - Resembling a human with a rams head, he was worshipped in Hypselis, Esna, Antinoe and Elephantine. \n\nKhonsu - the moon god was the son of Amon and Mut. The main temple at Karnak is dedicated to him. \n\nMin - God of fertility coalesced with Amon and Horus. Min was mainly worshipped at Coptos and Akhmim. \n\nMut - Worshipped at Thebes, she was a consort of Amon and part of the Theban Triad (group of three gods). \n\nNut - Mother of the sun, moon and heavenly bodies. \n\nOsiris - He is regarded as the dead king that watches over the nether world and is rejuvenated in his son Horus. As the symbol of eternal life he was worshipped at Abydos and Philae. \n\nPtah - Worshipped in Memphis, he coalesced with Sokaris and Osiris. \n\nRe - He was the sun god of Heliopolis. From the fifth Dynasty onwards he becomes a national god and is combined with the supreme deity Amon. \n\nSerapis - He was mainly worshipped in Alexandria and was later worshipped by the Greeks as Zeus. He was never fully accepted by the Egyptians in the Ptolemaic period. \n\nSekhmet - She was part of the Memphite Triad with Ptah and Nefertem. She was the mistress of war and sickness. \n\nSeth - The son of Geb and Nut in the Heliopolitan Ennead was in the for


I make about $40-50 an hour when I do sound (I'm primarily a musician) and my assitants get about $20 an hour. The guy whose studio I play in gets paid about $180 an hour when he does live shows. Some guys work for salary (a fixed amount for a fixed number of shows on a tour). It all depends on how well you are known, how big the system and venue is, and whether you are the FOH (front of house) or monitor engineer.

what is the reasons about youth readership going down due to technology?

Sensory and information overload due to various technology and gadgets which are more amusing and entertaining to the youth because they "attack" various senses at the same time.  Take gaming for example.  As opposed to reading which is "one-dimensional" and uses the sense of sight alone, gaming will have the ears, the motor skills (touch), and the eyes involved.


What can I tell my friend who is suffering from a miscarriage?

There really isn't anything that you can say,just let her know that you are there for her when ever she needs to talk about it,try to get her mind off it,go shopping,to the movies,or something. Just be there for her,because she needs you right now!!!


you need to make a decision...is this person going to marry me and will it last forever. These arent questions that you can hope for but must be 110% certain that both answers are yes. Now this is probably very unlikely. Friends are your family, usually closer than family. You tell more to your friends than you do your family so they must be preserved at all costs. The way this situation has arisen then you must make the choice now and not later as there may be no later. Your friend is feeling betrayed even if you didnt mean it that way. You need to fix things with your friend first and maybe they will give you their blessing which would work well for everyone. If they dont call your new relationship off immediately.

The Miller-Urey experiment (or Urey-Miller experiment) was an experiment that simulated hypothetical conditions present on the early Earth and tested for the occurrence of chemical evolution (the Oparin and Haldane hypothesis stated that conditions on the primitive Earth favored chemical reactions that synthesized organic compounds from inorganic precursors; the Miller-Urey tested this hypothesis). The experiment is considered to be the classic experiment on the origin of life. It was conducted in 1953 by Stanley L. Miller and Harold C. Urey at the University of Chicago.

What do you do if you are being picked on at school and all people say is ignore it?

Well... just ignore it is good advice although hard to follow considering how long you have to spend at school. Everyone who gets picked on gets worn down by it sooner or later - ignoring is hard work! \n\nDo those who you have told include teachers? There have been some interesting cases lately in which schools have got into trouble for not taking action on bullying, they ought to have an anti-bullying policy in place which should be implemented. Unfortunately it can make it worse, at least temporarily, if you tell on the people who pick on you, but if you are brave enough it is the best way to get it sorted in the end. Tried ringing childline? I never did but it would've been a good plan in hindsight.\n\nYou need to find others who are going through similar stuff so that you can support each other. When you realise there are other cool people who get picked on you feel a hell of a lot better about yourself. Go find some people with similar interests to you.\n\nI got picked on at school, and at the end of the day it might make you weaker in the short term, but stronger in the long term, and you will reach a point in the future when you really don't give a shit any more. It's not your fault and it shouldn't happen. Hang on in there and fight for your right to be yourself and not be given any hassle about it.

Inside the room you will find your wife sitting in a chair.\n\nKill Her!"  \n\nThe man said, "You can't be serious, I could never shoot my wife."  The agent said, "Then you're not the right man for this job.  Take your wife and go home."\n\nThe second man was given the same instructions.\n\nHe took the gun and went into the room.  All was quiet for about 5 minutes.  The man came out with tears in his eyes,  "I tried, but I can't kill my wife."\n\nThe agent said, "You don't have what it takes. Take your wife and go home."\n\nFinally, it was the woman's turn.\n\nShe was given the same instructions, to kill her husband.  She took the gun and went into the room.  Shots were heard, one after another.  They heard screaming, crashing, banging on the walls.\n\nAfter a few minutes, all was quiet.  The door opened slowly and there stood the woman.  She wiped the sweat from her brow. \n\n"This gun is loaded with blanks" she said. "I had to beat him to death with the chair."

at what age can a woman start menopause?

I believe you can actually start menopause as early as your late twenties, so at 43 its a definitely possibility.  Did you breastfeed?  That will delay your period.  But with the hot flashes it sounds like menopause.  Go to Amazon.com and look up books on the subject, check the reviews and read up on it.  Then talk to you GYN. My doctor has a link with some info see below.


Has anyone taken the FTCE subject area test?

You can find samples of these tests on-line.  You will have to pay a small fee to get them.  I downloaded several last year, and found that they were not that difficult.  It depends on your background and experience.  If you are just graduating, you may need to do some extra preparation for the practical aspects.\n\nI've included the site for the test preparation guides.  I think they are well worth the money.  I've also included a site with some free practice questions.  I hope this helps.


How do I applie for cash grants to start a small business in the state of virginia  or online information?

It is hard to find grants to start a business. Unlike the myths that some perpetuate, federal government and even private foundations hardly give grant money for a for-profit business. And yes, grants mean PAPERWORK - lots and lots of it, that is why a cottage industry of grant writers was born.\n\nNonetheless, you can go to the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) http://www.cfda.gov and Grants.gov http://www.grants.gov - these are two sites created by the federal government to provide transparency and information on grants. Browse through the listings and see if you can find any grant that would support a for-profit venture.\n\nEven if you buy books on "how to get grants" or list that supposedly has information on grants -- all of them are mere rehash of what CFDA has, albeit packaged differently. But still the info is the same - hardly any grants for starting a for profit business.\n\nEven SBA does NOT give out grants. From the SBA website http://www.sba.gov/expanding/grants.html... \n\n"The U.S. Small Business Administration does not offer grants to start or expand small businesses, although it does offer a wide variety of loan programs. (See http://www.sba.gov/financing for more information) While SBA does offer some grant programs, these are generally designed to expand and enhance organizations that provide small business management, technical, or financial assistance. These grants generally support non-profit organizations, intermediary lending institutions, and state and local governments."\n\nMost of the federal grants are given to specific target groups with specific requirements (e.g. minority business owners involved in transportation related contracts emanating from DOT - Grant#20.905 Disadvantaged Business Enterprises Short Term Lending Program \n\nGrants are also often given to non profit groups or organizations involved in training or other similar activities (grant 59.043 Women's Business Ownership Assistance that are given to those who will create women's business center that will train women entrepreneurs \n\nFor private grants, you may want to check the Foundation Center's Foundation Grants for Individuals Online. It's a subscription based website ($9.95 per month) but their opening blurb only says that the database is ideal for "students, artists, academic researchers, libraries and financial aid offices." Entrepreneurs are apparently not one of them, so I take it they also don't have listings of private foundations who give grants to would-be entrepreneurs.\n\nhttp://www.cfda.gov\nhttp://www.grants.gov\nhttp://gtionline.fdncenter.org\nhttp://www.powerhomebiz.com/vol66/grants.htm\nhttp://www.sba.gov/expanding/grants.html

Whose life is the movie "Child of rage" based on?

Beth Thomas\n\nyou can read more here,\nhttp://www.imdb.com/title/tt0103955/usercomments\nhttp://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0970352522/103-9374585-0194231?v=glance&n=283155\nhttp://www.buysafemall.com/Merchant2/merchant.mv?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=attachment&Product_Code=Dande&Category_Code=B\nhttp://www.attachment.org/Seminars.htm\n\nI saw that movie years ago with my wife .. by the time it reached the end and the little girl says "tears for Baby Cat" .. we were both teary-eyed.  It was also a bit freaky because the little girl looked like a twin of my niece!\n\nWhat I have found very interesting from researching this answer for you is that it appears that Cat was eventually adopted by the therapist!  \n\n1) The real-life therapist was Nancy Thomas.  From Nancy's bio on attachment.org "Since her work was highlighted in an HBO special in 1990 entitled CHILD OF RAGE she has become a much sought after and respected speaker."  \n\n2) And from the seminar page on the same site, "Beth Thomas, once labeled the “Child of Rage” by HBO, is now a graduate of the University of Colorado with a degree in Nursing. She is no longer a child of rage but a phenomenal woman." \n\n3) And from imdb, "By the time Nancy and her husband found out where Beth was, they immediately discovered that Beth had been abandoned and rapidly moved to adopt her."\n\n.. what happened to the other adoptive couple from the movie that took Cat to see the therapist??\n\nI can't seem to stop looking thing up on this now that I've started  .. here's an interesting bit of information. http://www.quackwatch.org/01QuackeryRelatedTopics/at.html


Dead things often end up on their backs because that is the equilibrium position with their center of gravity lowest to the ground. Dead fish float upside down because that places their center of gravity nearest the surface. Either way, the energy of the system is minimized. SUVs easily tip over for the same reason - too high a center of gravity


In powerbuilder you already have the datawindow so I assume you mean an alternative in another language but you didn't specify which.

You'd then have to write specific routines for updating/inserting etc.

Who was the man who created Walt Disney?

The Walt Disney Company was founded in as a cartoon studio in 1923 by a man by the name of Walter Elias Disney, founder of the Walt Disney Company. \n\nDisney was a pioneer in the development of animation as an industry. Disney is one of the most famous names in the animation industry, known for providing entertainment directed to adults and children alike; with international theme parks and a world-class animation studio and business franchise, the company nearly dominates the industry. Famous names such as Mickey Mouse began with Disney, and were the foundation of a company that has now branched out into several entertainment studios, theme parks, products, and other media productions.

Most manufacturers only sell tv's that respond to a specific signal in a specific region.  So here in the states, all tv's from all manufacturers interpret and decode NTSC signal.  In India I would imagine that if a graphics card you purchase there is PAL only then Every tv manufacturer only ships PAL signal TV's.\n\ntranslation:  It doesn't matter what brand tv you buy, It's regionally influenced.  Buy your new card. ^^/


What do people need to do, to make you SMILE?

Definitely the best start is to see a smile first thing.  Maybe a hug, or a joke.  Some sort of contact.  Even a little note.


My son passed away about 3 1/2 yrs ago. I would like him to know how much I love him. I think about him daily.

I lost my son 10 years ago on Nov.25 and I still think of him daily. It took a long time but now when I think of him I can laugh at the warm good times we had and it doesn't hurt so sharply. I know the pain and it is almost a physical thing, isn't it? It starts in your stomach and it feels like you want to scream and scream and scream. This will pass. He knows you love him. Trust that fact. And you will always love him trust this fact. And you will see him again when it is time to do so. Until that time you are responsible to him not to waste the life you have grieving for his loss of life because his life began again that day. He is in a wonderful place, God can take a lot better care of him than you or I ever could. He has all the answers. I know how much you miss him , and I believe they miss us too. He is busy and so should we be. the time till we are with them will seem shorter that way and we will be doing what is our reason to still be here, that is to be busy and to love others by giving help to those we can help. Bless your heart and Bless your Loving Parents heart. It will all be answered someday and you can trust that fact also.

how do i find passwords to purchase concert tickets at presale?

You generally sign up to that band's website and join their fanclub. Depending on the group, this may or may not have a membership fee attached.  The passwords are emailed out to you generally a week in advance of the presale tickets going on sale.
