How do you use weather maps an data to predict local weather and what varibles to weather forcates depend on?

If you live in the US, most weather systems track west to east. A low pressure system rotates clock-wise and a high pressure system rotates counter-clockwise. Wind speeds are shown by flags and the more flags, the faster the wind is. Just east of a cold front, which is a low pressure system and takes approx 1 week to travel across the US, is called the "warm zone". It is typically warm and humid. As the cold front passes, the wind shifts to the west. This area is associated with rain, strong winds and thunderstorms. Following the cold front generally mild weather persists as the high pressure system sets in.

What does  " brevity is the soul of whit "  mean? it is said from Polonius in Hamlet.?

Famous Lines Department: "Brevity is the soul of wit" is one of those lines which is often quoted, and misquoted, by intellectual snobs today. The word "wit" meant wisdom, while it also meant "humor," and "cleverness." The line means one should never be long-winded. A short explanation is better than a long one. \n\nIt means that true wisdom does not require long-winded explanations. or lengthy speeches, or intensive time-consuming discussions. One will note that this is exactly the sort of thing that Polonius is known for.

You really should talk to your doctor about that. The hot flashes should diminish while you're on the hormone medication, and you have to give it time to work with your body. Four weeks might not be enough for you, give it some time but ask your doctor too. Premarin is a very good med but there are others out there too if this one isn't working for you. And bear in mind, a hysterectomy, regardless of when you had it done, is going to cause tremendous hormonal changes. I had a partial hysterectomy and even I get flashes all the time. I hope it works out for you!

dye-sublimation, ink jet, dot-matrix-how does they work and how would I trobuleshoot them?

they're different types of printer.\n\nDye sublimation works by heating a dye page, which would make the dyes vaporize and infuses with the paper.\nInkjet works by spraying ink to the paper. Also known as bubble jet.\nDot Matrix printer is done by "typing" little dots to the pages. Dot Matrix printer type similarly to a typewriter, but it only have one letter, that is the dots. These dots are arranged in a matrix to make pictorial representation of letters.

How can we be sure it's not the universe of stars that's rotating around the Earth?

The Coriolis effect. If the Earth were not rotating, the effect would be a mysterious "fifth force" with no physical explanation. See the source for details. \nAccelerating frames are absolutely determined. The above references to relativity theory are completely incorrect; Newtonian theory equates frames with constant velocity, Einstein equates an accelerating frame with a local curvature (gravitation). This is all the two theories have to do with the badly referenced quotations above.\nThe amount of pseudoscience and bad science on these forums is strange, given the amount of knowledge freely available over the internet.

I understand what you are saying too.  I mean who is it who decides that "skinny" is beautiful.  Some of those stars look absolutely pathetic.  I mean, don't they ever see what they look like, with their stick arms and legs?  It is a very sad reflection on our society when we place that much value on how people look and not on how people treat one another instead.\n\nBelow is a site with info on a country where girls are actually force-fed to get fat so they will be seen as more desirable.  Not that I agree with that, but it just shows that not all the world agrees with "skinny".

Yes multitalented Korean singer that has release albums in multiple languages in multiple countries..


It's a day observed by Mexican communities in Latin America and Mexican-American communities in the United States in commemoration of the 1862 defeat of French troops at the Battle of Puebla.\n\nOver, the years Cinco de Mayo has become very commercialized and many people see this holiday as a time for fun and dance. Oddly enough, Cinco de Mayo has become more of Chicano holiday than a Mexican one. Cinco de Mayo is celebrated on a much larger scale here in the United States than it is in Mexico. People of Mexican descent in the United States celebrate this significant day by having parades, mariachi music, folklorico dancing and other types of festive activities.\n\nSo, to answer your question, Cinco de Mayo isn't a festival but some people take part in festivals to celebrate it.

What determines the type of energy that potential energy turns into in certain situations?

Well, when you break it down to fundamentals there is potential energy and there is kinetic energy -- just those two.\n\nHeat is kinetic energy -- it's the more rapid movement of atoms/molecules.  Sound is a physical wave that passes through the air, again, moving molecules around.\n\nSo it's not that there are different kinds of energy, but rather we perceive them in different ways because of our sensory organs.  But it's still an artifically human distinction.

Why do people grow out of believing in Santa Claus, but not God? Both are fiction.?

Because religion gives people a chance to still have a Santa Claus figure in adulthood without feeling too ridiculous, by renaming it 'god', and thus trying to make it sound like a more grown-up idea.  It's simply a character flaw in people who don't want to accept reality.

Why did the Democrats not win the last election.?

The answer to that question lies in the many illegal activities of one man, the Secretary of State in the state of Ohio, J. Kenneth Blackwell, who was also the co-chair of the Bush-Cheney campaign in Ohio, AND who was also a staunch Bush supporter!  Ohio was the last of the battleground states, the one that John Kerry could have declared victory with in the Electoral College!  You don't hear much about this white collar criminal, the kind of pond scum the Bush administration is so good at creating and then covering up!!  All one needs to do is Google his name--there are more irregularities in his ethics and practices than there are nooks and crannies in Thomas's English muffins!!  Bush stole the election in 2000 with his illegal "anointment" by the Supreme Court!  He "won" in Ohio with the chicanery of his greasy friend, J. Kenneth Blackwell!

why do men not like women that are plus sized? I look great...but?

I to am a plus sized woman, And I understand where your coming from.  All the guys wants to be my friend or think of me as one of the guys. Where they get that vibe at I am not sure.   But I think that guys ,like women, are self conscious I think some men really like bigger women but they are afraid of what other ppl men especially would think of them with a larger woman in hand.  And that's there problem and they miss out on wonder full women that way.  Also I think its magazines and the media, culture what ever you wanna say puts this idea of what a woman should be. And there are us few that just don't fit the mold but I would rather be fat and unique than skinny and be just a carbon copy of what other ppl have a idea of.  Lots of times I think women of size have to have a out going personality or maybe a in your face type one and some men are threatened by that. I know there are some men in my life that are by my personality. But they know i don't take any thing from them either. I hope I helped. But just know your not the only one that feels that way.  As a child i was practically tortured by the other kids. And as an adult its not much better but I feel sorry for them because normally if someone is saying bad things thinking bad things about you then they have a problem or are insecure about them self so ultimately they are the ones with the problem. I hope I have helped with my ramballing.

is it safe to have any type of surgery if you have a really high fever  106?

There is no way that any doctor would do a routine surgery with someone having a 106 degree temperature....in fact no one can survive a 106 degree temperature for very long.  If your Grandmother had surgery with that high of temp then there must have been no choice than to do it...she was at the brink of death with that type of fever.

whats the best way to have a platonic freindship between a man and a woman?

It was never meant to be that way. You will never find a "normal" guy who says he wants to just be friends with a woman by way of a platonic relationship. However I have heard women say that. Whether they are lying or not, I don't know. If a man says it, he is lying! When a woman starts revealing her personal feelings about things in her  life to her supposed platonic male friend, he either wants to do one of three things. He wants to either protect her, take advantage of her while she is in her weakness, or tell her to shut the hell up with her constant whining! Too much hormonal interference going on!\n    As a man, I am telling you the truth. That is why I avoid platonic relationships with women. I know my own limitations.  Besides that, I am married and my wife doesn't go for that stuff! By the way ladies, are women lying when they say that?

why do some animal cells appear deformed?

That's a rather broad question...  You would probably have to specify it a little more to get the answer you are looking for.  But that said, there are numerous reasons as to why animal cells may develop an "abnormal" morphology.  Basically, there are perhaps two categories that can roughly be differentiated, even though - again - you have to be careful there.  One would be genetic reasons, another would be environmental reasons.  Genetic causes could be numerous as well, but take certain cancers for example, that have a genetic predisposition.  Certain environmental toxins can likewise lead to malformation of cells.  Please note that I was talking of a genetic "predisposition".  Often in case of cancer ebnvironmental and genetic effects are both responsible for the adverse effects observed.  So, the two categories are not ontological absolutes.  \n\nPerhaps what would help you to envision the problem is the basics.  First, cells divide mitotically in unicellular organisms.  consequently, a central question would be the default state of the cell.  There are three possibilities: (a) quiescence (i.e., the cell does not divide and needs an initiation of the mitotic process), (b) proliferation (i.e., cells default state is division and it needs particular factors to asure quiesence as needed in many multicellular organs), and (c) neither, since cell division is contextual.  The most common assumption in biology (and cancer biology, for that matter) is (a).  (b) has been suggested by  Carlos Sonnenschein and Ana Soto ("The Society of Cells. Cancer and Control of Cell Proliferation." New York: Springer, 1999).  Personally, I tend towards (c).  \n\nSecond, cells that proliferate during organogenesis have to further differentiate into the morphology and functionality they are to have in a specific organ.  \n\nThird, certain organs have cells that proliferate, whereas other organs don't.  Consequently, once everything goes well intially in organs of the second type, malformation may not occur as easily.  However, that said there are of course cancers of organs that normally do not have proliferating cells.  \n\nThese three basics may help you to ask your question a little more specifically and then seek out the literature that could give you answers accordingly.\n\nFinally, just remember that what is considered normal in science is the mean of a population.  But what determines this mean is often unclear.  I am thinking here for example of norms of reaction where cells may be shaped quite differently in response to environmental factors, and yet function wonderfully - in fact just exactly as they should given the particular environment.  Now, what is "deformed" would have to be probably understood functionally (i.e., a morphology associated with a functional break down).  And it seems to me that this is what you are looking for anyway.\n\nHope this helps.

I would define clean as "pure" when it comes to a person, and to a materilistic item I would say "new" or fairly "new."\n\nI think that clean can be a term used to describe something that has not spots, stains, scratches, and so forth. Basically it looks like new. As for a person clean is the way one can present themselves. \n\nDirty on the otherhand is considered bad it can be defined as something that is not appealing to another person.\n\nI would say that both have their own definitions which can be perceived differently by each individual. What may be dirty to one person may be clean to another. ;)

Why is it that so few corrupt congressmen end up in prison?

I would attribute the lack of prosecution to the proposition that cases are chosen by how blatant they are, how easily evidence can be gathered, and how successful the prosecution will be.\n\nThe above could be flavored by the fact that many (if not all) state attorneys are elected, usually running on party tickets.\n\nMost elected officials want to remain in office for as long as possible, so one hand washes the other.


Myth #3: The more you sweat during exercise, the more fat you lose.\n\nFact: The harder you work out, the more calories you'll burn within a given period and thus the more fat you stand to lose. But how much you sweat does not necessarily reflect how hard you're working. Some people tend to sweat profusely due to heavy body weight, poor conditioning, or heredity. And everyone sweats more in hot, dry weather or dense clothing than in cool, humid weather or porous clothing. (You may feel as if you're sweating more in humid weather; but that's because moist air slows the evaporation of sweat.)\n\nExercising in extremely hot weather or in a plastic "weight loss" suit will indeed make you sweat heavily and lose weight immediately. But that lost weight is almost entirely water; the pounds will return when you replenish your fluids by drinking after the workout. Further, you could develop heat exhaustion if you push yourself too hard in extreme heat or in plastic clothes. which prevent sweat from evaporating and, in turn, cooling you off.

can a landlord take tenants to court in the state of NY if the owner resides outside of the state of NY?

I'm assuming that you mean that you are the landlord and the guy collecting rents and doing the repairs is your property manager.  If that's the case, then of course he can file eviction papers against your tenants.  \n\nThat's one of the reasons that you would hire a property manager in the first place.  It's much easier for him to file eviction proceedings locally than it would be for you to travel to New York to do so.  He would file the eviction as your agent.


Truth be told in my experience most engineers don't use calculus very often.  An understanding of calculus is required to find derivations for most formulas that are used.  But in practical application most problems are solved making assumption that simplfy problems to simple algebra.  One application used in practice is definte intergration ussually using a spreadsheet.

Is falling in love with a married man a mortal sin?

I've said it once and I'll say it again, \n\n"DON'T MESS WITH MARRIED MEN"!!!!!! \n\nWe can't continue this vicious cycle of yolking up ino other peoples committments. No matter how unhappy he/she may be, if it were true they would have already left, filed for divorce and independent.\n\nDon't be fooled girl, you can never, never, never be her! When he gets to the point with you like he did with her, he's going back home b/c he realizes it was him all along or he'll move on to the next victim.\n\nWise up!!!!

Is it wrong to  not want your b-friend to be your b-friend.?

No it is not wrong to feel that way.  Sometimes it is better to do the whole friends with benefits type of thing.  One of my ex's and I did the friends with benefits bit and when we moved on to other relationships we were able to keep the friendship.  It is nice having a guy to talk to about anything, that you know will understand b/c he is your best friend.  I think it is more important to have a best friend than a boyfriend.  It sounds like this guy is your best friend and sometimes when you move from friends to lovers you lose the friend.  So doing the friend thing would be safer but if your feelings are really strong then go for it and if it does not work out hopefully you can still be friends.

the social affects of growing up from members of your own race?

Interesting inquiry...My family taught me to be a racist because of the treatment they experienced while living in the south back in the 50's and 60's.  When I went to college and found out that I could be friends with people of all races my entire existence expanded.  I had to learn how to take a stand for what I believed in whether my family and friends agreed with me or not.  Learning to be my self and bridge the race gap with others has been quite enlightening.  Then again...I challenge myself to grow spiritually, so letting go of the past is one lesson I have been able to conquer.  The gift is not to resist, but to examine and inquire.  You're on the right path.  Peace.

need a description of the evolution of jihad from the classical doctrine to the modern use by Islamic militant

Jihad: Introduction\n\nThe literal meaning of Jihad is struggle or effort, and it means much more than holy war.\n\nMuslims use the word Jihad to describe three different kinds of struggle: \n\nA believer's internal struggle to live out the Muslim faith as well as possible\n\nThe struggle to build a good Muslim society\n\nHoly War: The struggle to defend Islam, with force if necessary\n\nMany modern writers claim that the main meaning of Jihad is the internal spiritual struggle, and this is accepted by many Muslims.\n\nHowever there are so many references to Jihad as a military struggle in Islamic writings that it is incorrect to claim that the interpretation of Jihad as holy war is wrong.\n\nJihad and the Prophet\nThe internal Jihad is the one that the Prophet (pbuh) is said to have called the greater Jihad.\n\nBut the quotation in which the Prophet says this is regarded as coming from an unreliable source by some scholars. They regard the use of Jihad to mean holy war as the more important.\n\nTo read more - visit site below......... (and it's the BBC, so it MUST be right!)

The USA are dictature masquerading as a democracy, Democracy by force?

bad effect of television on young person?

How young are we talking? Children under the age of 5 shouldn't be watching TV since their brains are still developing. But other than that TV can be good if they watch some educational shows. I've learned a lot more watching Discovery Channel and those kind of networks than anything I've learned in school.

Got any good video game suggestions for me?

I have to back up the first answerer with the Ratchet and Clank games.  Ratchet 1 is good, Ratchet 2 is excellent and Ratchet 3 is very good.

All of them are very good, but 3 is the best!\n\nI am currently playing Sphinx and the Cursed Mummy, and that's proving to be a good game as well.


Don't give up, college is there to educate you and they will do whatever they can to help you succeed.  There will be tutoring, and they even offer it free.  All nursing schools are competitive, but even if you can't get in right away, you can take classes that will go towards your degree while you are waiting to get in.  Another idea is to go the LPN route which is a bit easier, and after you have your LPN, you can always go back for your RN.  Best of luck to you and whatever you do, do NOT give up!!!

Bad heart, diabetes, what can i feed my hubby?

Good question.  This is not a pleasant situation, because food really effects our short-term mood.  I suspect that the recent diagnosis has also not been good for the mood.  \n\nSome things I like that I know are healthy:\n\nSalsa  (the problem with salsa is the chips, sour cream and cheese that often accompany it.)\nGreen Beans\nBlack beans  (give me the full feeling)\nPinto beans   (give me the full feeling)\nEdamame - I normally would loathe any kind of soy bean.  But, these are delicious and refreshing.  I get a big bag at Costco in the frozen foods.\nBaby carrots\nSnap peas\n\nSometimes new spices can put the "interesting" back in food.  I recently blogged on some diabetic recipies from the Saturday Evening Post at:\n\nhttp://mydiabetesinformation.com/index.php?p=14\n\nHowever, I am just getting into blogging about diabetes.  This is a good challenge.  Food is such a part of life and identity.  Changing it dramatically is similar to uprooting a family and moving to an unfamiliar city.  It is hard, but will get better every day.

How do you know when you are really in love and not lust?

Time will usually tell...lust is when you look at someone and all you can think of is having sex with them...love is looking at someone and seeing yourself walking in the park...having childres...dinners at the inlaws...and caring more for that person than you do for yourself...their needs outweigh yours...you would want to be with that person even if you couldnt have sex.


What are uses of metalloids/semi-metals?

Together with the metals and nonmetals, the metalloids (in Greek metallon = metal and eidos = sort - also called semimetals) form one of the three categories of chemical elements as classified by ionization and bonding properties. They have properties intermediate between those of metals and nonmetals. There is no unique way of distinguishing a metalloid from a true metal but the most common is that metalloids are usually semiconductors rather than conductors.\n\nThe known metalloids (and their atomic symbols) are:\n\nBoron (B) \nSilicon (Si) \nGermanium (Ge) \nArsenic (As) \nAntimony (Sb) \nTellurium (Te) \nPolonium (Po) \nAstatine (At) \nIn the periodic table, metalloids occur along the diagonal line from boron to polonium. Elements to the upper right of this line are nonmetals; elements to the lower left are metals.\n\nSemi-metallic behaviour is not confined to the elements, but is also found in alloys and compounds. Mercury (II) telluride is one example.\n\nOne definition of semi-metallic behavior would be if the conduction band and valence band overlap. This is also true of metals, so semi-metals must additionally have a relatively low carrier density.


Can ANYONE CURE ME? I have depression, multiple personality disorders, Gastritis, facial neuralgia etc, etc?

Hi Bob.\nI'm sorry for all the problems you've had.  I can make a suggestion but you might not be ready to hear it.\nYour question is "Can anyone cure me?"--so you want the work taken away from you.  No matter what the illness is, or who you turn to for help, you have to take responsibility for your own healing. The question is, "Can you help me heal myself?"  Any healing takes work and dedication.  If you have a headache, no one's going to walk up to you and hand you an aspirin.  You have to say, "Hey, anyone got an aspirin I can have?" That's vocalizing your need.\nIf inside your belief is that healing is from an outside source that has nothing to do with you, it's not going to happen.  It requires your participation.  And not going to someone and saying "Can you fix me?"  It's not about someone else fixing you. You aren't a car with a bad carburetor.  It's about saying, "I'm in mental and physical pain and I need help.  What can I do, what can WE do, to help me overcome this pain?"  Do you see the difference? It's HUGE change in thinking.\nIt also sounds like you are fighting very hard against your illnesses, and fighting causes stress, and stress will make you feel worse.\nIf you go around saying "Look at me, I'm mentally ill" people will treat you accordingly.  I see this with my own father. He has Alzheimer's.   Sometimes he tries to get into a discussion with strangers because he's still a friendly guy, and they'll look at him a little funny because he can't talk correctly anymore. Once I explain his condition people's demeanor toward my dad totally change.  A woman who had been looking at my dad as if he was some kind of stupid idiot when he didn't move out of the way of a moving vehicle, took his arm very nicely and called him "dear" after I explained.  My point isn't that you have Alzheimer's (you're way too young) but that people's perceptions of you, and therefore how they treat you, comes from what they are TOLD about you.\nI have been through lots of therapy myself and I also do healing work and I'm giving you my perspective.  \nI hope that you find the help you need and that you are able to become whole once again.  I also hope that you do not choose suicide. Not because I think it's wrong, but because I think your problems can be overcome.

What are the pros and cons of buying a condominium?

I have owned both.\n\nMy first home was a condo in Ca.  It was less expensive then a single family residence and I was able to purchase it for less down and ability to qualify.  It gave me time to gain equity through appreciation, ultimately sell to purchase a single family residence.\n\nThe con side would be lack of control.  The homeowners dues increased.  A vote was taken on a special assessment I did not agree with but had to pay anyway.  Noisy neighbors & a legal battle with the developer which was very costly to every owner in the project.\n\nThe positive side as stated above was the ability to get a start.\n\nThe positive side of owning a single family residence is pretty obvious. Complete ownership of both land and home.(with a condo you own your unit and a % of the common areas)\nAbility to landscape using your own creativity.  Unless there are master CC&R's for the neighborhood you have control about exterior color. And typically a single family residence will appreciate at a faster pace than a condominium.  Plus more privacy from neighbors.\n\nThe con side would be constant yard maintance. Yes, that too can grow old.  Responsible for exterior dweling maintance(roof,paint,etc).  Basically responsible for everything having to do with homeownership.  No short cuts here.

can policemen have long hair in the state of GA?

I've never heard of a department in the US that allowed male officers to wear their hair that long.  That being said, probably every department has exceptions for medial or religious reasons, and also depending on the officer's assignment.  For example, an undercover narcotics officer would be allowed to do whatever he wanted with his hair.


what is the best fruit for better liver function?

Schisandra (Magnolia Vine) is a genus of shrub commonly grown in gardens. It is a hardy deciduous climber which thrives in virtually any soil; its preferred position is on a sheltered shady wall. It may be propagated by taking cuttings of half-matured shoots in August.\n\nSpecies include S. chinensis, S. glaucescens, and S. rubrifolia.\n\nIt is native to East Asia and its dried fruit is used medicinally. The berries of Schisandra chinensis are given the name wuweizi (???) in Chinese, which translates as "five flavor fruit," due to the fact that they possess all five basic flavors: salty, sweet, sour, pungent (spicy), and bitter. In traditional Chinese medicine it is used as a remedy for many ailments: to resist infections, increase skin health, and combat insomnia, coughing, and thirst.\n\n-From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schizandra\n---------------------\n\nSchizandra (Fruit)\n\nThe applicable part of schisandra is the fruit and is often referred to as an adaptogen. It improves liver function, increases concentration, coordination, respiratory function, and endurance. It is also has anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-tussive, anti-convulsant, anti-depressant, anti-fatigue, tranquilizing, and a decrease in bleeding properties.\n\nSchisandra is often used to reduce fatigue, improve work performance, and build strength. Some people claim that it improves libido in women and staying power in men. \n\n-From http://lifenutrientsusa.com/glossary482.html

There have been numerous attempts to explain the emergence of this curious colloquial expression, which seems to have swept into popular use in the US during the mid-19th century. Most of them are undoubtedly pure speculation. It does not seem at all likely, from the linguistic and historical evidence, that it derives from the Scots expression 'och aye', the Greek ola kala ('it is good'), the Choctaw Indian oke or okeh ('it is so'), the French aux Cayes ('from Cayes', a port in Haiti with a reputation for good rum) or au quai ('to the quay', as supposedly used by French-speaking dockers), or the initials of a railway freight agent called Obediah Kelly who is said to have written them on lading documents he had checked.\n\nThe oldest written references to 'OK' result from its adoption as a slogan by the Democratic party during the American Presidential election of 1840. Their candidate, President Martin Van Buren, was nicknamed 'Old Kinderhook' (after his birthplace in New York State), and his supporters formed the 'OK Club'.\n\nThis undoubtedly helped to popularize the term (though it did not get President Van Buren re-elected!). During the late 1830s there had been a brief but widespread craze in the US for humorous misspellings, and the form orl korrekt which was among them could explain the initials 'OK'. Such a theory has been supported by more than one distinguished American scholar, and is given in many dictionaries, including Oxford dictionaries.\n\nThe only other theory with at least a degree of plausibility is that the term originated among Black slaves of West African origin, and represents a word meaning 'all right, yes indeed' in various West African languages. Unfortunately, historical evidence enabling the origin of this expression to be finally and firmly established may be hard to unearth.

Can antidepressants lose their effectiveness over time (5-10 years)? What about long-term side effects?

I don't know about Celexa specifically, but many drugs do become less effective over time as you build up tolerance to them.  However, if the drug has been working consistently for seven years it is unlikely that it would spontaneously stop.  More likely, something else has changed that is making you feel somewhat depressed.  Maybe you're stressed out about something, or there's some other reason you might be feeling kind of bad.  However, you should talk to your doctor rather than posting here on Answers cause even if we sound like we know what we're talking about most of us actually don't.

Is it true that the Earth and Moon Rotate around each other instead of just the moon rotating around the Earth

Kind of, but not quite.  The Earth is pulled by the Moon's gravity just as the Moon is pulled by the Earth's gravity.  The center of gravity of the Earth-Moon system (called the barycenter) is actually inside the Earth, but not at the center of the Earth, so its better to say that the Earth wobbles rather than revolving around a point.\n\nPluto and Charon actually do revolve around each other, and around the barycenter which is between the two objects.

Almost all women have some cramping during their periods, classified as either primary dysmenorrhea (which refers to "normal" menstrual pain) or secondary dysmenorrhea (which is a result of an underlying disease or disorder).\n\n"Normal" cramps occur in almost all women due to the release of prostaglandins, which are hormones produced by the endometrium (the lining of the uterus). Prostaglandins cause the uterus to contract (sometimes quite painfully) in order to expel the menstrual debris (and henceforth, start the period). Some women produce higher levels of prostaglandins than others, so they may hurt more. \n\nHOWEVER, killer cramps are NOT normal and are in most cases due to secondary dysmenorrhea. Most frequently this is because of a disease or disorder like Endometriosis, Adenomyosis, Pelvic Inflammatory Disease, cervical stenosis, structural abnormalities in the vagina or uterus itself, fibroids, etc. If your cramping disables you, see your gyn to talk about options.\n\nI know you said 'no meds,' but non-steroidal inflammatory drugs like aspirin and ibuprofen may help relieve cramping...your doc can also prescribe oral contraceptives that will prevent ovulation and reduce prostaglandin production, thereby alleviating cramping. \n\nUse of heating pads, avoidance of salt, sugar, alcohol and caffeine, intake of vitamin B6, calcium and magnesium supplements, and pelvic massage are all said to be helpful as well. \n\nIt is important to determine if the cramps are "normal," or if they could be due to another cause. Pain that is crippling is never normal and should be investigated ASAP so that appropriate diagnosis and treatment can be rendered. Hope that helps.

Here's how it's believed to have happened before this solar system was formed, since it's believed that the sun is only a 500 million years older than the planets:\n\nWhen a star is about to die, its last stages of life consume a lot of different materials (this is assuming this star is large enough to create a supernova).  When it runs out of hydrogen, it begins to fuse helium, when that runs out, it goes to lithium, then on down the periodic table, until iron, which requires too much energy to fuse, and the fusion within the star ceases.  What happens here is tight . . . lets establish this first:\n\nStars are composed of mostly hydrogen and helium, little bit of lithium, and much much less of the heavier elements . . .  \n\nWhen the iron is left to fuse and it can't be done, the internal pressure from the core, which is generated by fusion, is lost, and the top shell of the sun is left to be supported but, since the fusion pressure has ceased, there's nothing to keep it up, and the outer shell of the star collapses.  This massive collapse of all that material to the leftover core compresses the inward falling material, increasing pressure and when that material hits the inner core, it 'bounces' back out violently, releasing massive amounts of energy, shooting the entire outer portion of the star into space. This is the moment in which heavy elements are made, in supernova events. The universe at one point did not have much by way of heavy elements, but as more and more stars collapse and supernova, they create more and more heavier elements; the origin of the diversity of the periodic table is here.\n\nFrom this you could assume, that as the universe gets older, stars are going to be creating and spitting out more and more heavy elements, and since stars cannot really use heavier elements to fuse, the number of stars over billions of years will slowly start to decline.

What is Climate change and how does it happen?

Climate is affected by a number of sources such as where your location is to the equator, the earths rotation, etc. Long term changes are taking place very slowly due to human activities (gases, deforestation, soil erosion etc) and need to be addressed on a global level to prevent further changes. Increased gases in the atmosphere cause heating...and deforestation and decrease of plant life means that many of the carbons are not being used - so they continue to increase in the atmosphere causing changes. \nThere is no way to "stop" it, just slow it by us being more energy efficient, stop creating so much pollution...\nYou can somewhat effect microclimates - a local area that is changed because of large cities, large mountains etc - but not really hard to do intentionally - it's done over time as something builds up and disturbs the existing temp.\n\nWhew...that was a long one.

can you help me find information on low- income family's affording college?

There are lots of scholarships and loans to help you pay for college!  Check your high school's guidance counselor's office and your public library - they should have some books on the FAFSA (federal application for financial aid for all US colleges) as well as books of scholarships and tips.  There are scholarships and loans available for things like race, financial situation, geographic background, and going into a specific field (like women in engineering) - all you need to do is find them :-)

what is difference between this two words: SOCCER & FOOTBALL?

Soccer is what the Americans call Football in order to differentiate it from "American Football" which is a completely different game.\n\nFootball is a British invented sport with a huge worldwide following now where two teams of eleven players try to kicj a round ball into the other teams net.\n\nAmerican Football has more in common with Rugby Football where two teams of players run with, carry and throw an egg shaped ball to each other and attempt to touch it down behind the goal or kick it over the goal.\n\nRugby football was invented at Rugby School in England when someone picked up the ball during a normal game of football and ran with it.\n\nThe origins of football are thought to have been in the middle ages when baying crowds would compete to kick the severed head of someone who had been executed around the streets.\n\nNot much has changed in europe!!

I only see 5 colors in the rainbow what do I DO!!!!!!!???????

HOW A RAINBOW FORMS:\nWhen light travels from one medium to another, it bends. In other words, it changes direction and moves at different speeds in different mediums. This property of light is called “refraction”. \nWe also know that white light is made up of different colours. Different colors of light have different frequencies. Except in vacuum and air, they travel at different speeds in different mediums.\nIf you were to allow a beam of light to pass through a simple prism, it will bend when it enters the prism, when it leaves the prism it bends again. The different colours of the white light travel with different speeds inside the prism. The slanted surfaces of the prism makes the different colours emerge separately, thus in addition to bending light as a whole, a prism separates white light into its component colors. This splitting of light into its component colours is called dispersion, where prism is a dispersing element.\nThis is exactly what happens when the sun rays hit droplets of water. When the sunlight strikes a raindrop, the light is refracted (bent) because the light is moving from one medium(air) to another( water). Drops of rainwater can disperse light in the same way as a prism.. When the light comes out of the water droplet, the sun's rays (white light)have now been split into their component wavelengths (colors). In this way, each individual raindrop behaves just like a prism, dispersing white sunlight into its seven component colors and a rainbow is formed. \nThe rainbow we see is thus a result of many, many raindrops bending the sun's rays.\n\nWHY U SEE 5 COLORS:\nDont worry much! there are many colors in rainbow but we see only those who are flowing in a great band. i mean which have more thickness! some colors dont have much thickness there, so it becomes tough to see them. we generally see 5 colors where it is said that rainbow have 7 colors. sometimes we see only 3! it depends on rainbow too, and changes from rainbow to another! depends on the sun and the intensity of rain too.\n\nBut to take precautions u can go and see a doctor!

what pressure would you expect in a rigid container of o c gas if you cooled it by 273 Celsius degrees?

You can never get to -273 C or 0 Kelvin.  But if you could, the pressure would be zero.  It would be difficult to measure since the pressure gauge itself is likely to emit heat (specifically thinking of an ion gauge).  If there was any pressure, then you would not be at 0 K since you would not be at the lowest energy state.  The only exception I can think of is if you only had one molecule in the container then the concept of temperature and pressure becomes ambigious.

How do you nuts feel about another doubt being cast on your book of lies?

3rd or 4th-century document called "The Gospel of Judas" was launched upon an unsuspecting world yesterday by no less a biblical authority than the National Geographic magazine in Washington. Its contents were "explosive", according to Mario Roberty, president of the Swiss foundation which now owns the ancient papyrus manuscript. \n\nSo as the heat faded from the television lights at the press conference, has 2000 years of orthodox Christianity been overturned? Well, not quite. But it was all jolly interesting, for those who love that sort of thing.\n\nHalf of the 62-page codex, written in Coptic script, is devoted to an account of the final days of Jesus Christ written from the viewpoint of the man who has for two millennia been excoriated as Christ's deadly betrayer. The text begins: "The secret account of the revelation that Jesus spoke in conversation with Judas Iscariot three days before he celebrated Passover..."

my penis is slightly bent towards left when it is erect. will i have any problem in having sex in future.?

Oddly, I had to research this very question before.  If it's a gentle curve, there is nothing to worry about.  If your penis has a sharp bend, however, you should talk to your doctor.\n\nThe penis gets erect based on unequal blood pressure.  More fluid going in than coming out.  In rare cases, that fluid can wind up being unevenly distributed, and this creates a bending of the penis.  This type of blockage can make the bend can get more sharp over time, to the point it's like kinking up a water hose, no fluid can go in.  And of course, this leads to complete erectile dysfunction.  This can be prevented, but from what i've read, not corrected, by surgery.  So prevention is necessary!\n\nDon't get me wrong, in all likelihood, yours is perfectly normal.  Many men have a slight curve left, right, up, or down.  If you find that there's a lump at the bend, the angle is pretty extreme, or it gets more angled...go see a doctor for your own peace of mind.


Is Obsidian known to be found in southern california?  I found quite a few peices and don't recall any volcano

From the web site link below:\n\nObsidian occurs only where geologic processes create volcanoes and where the chemical composition of the magma is rich in silica. Obsidian-bearing volcanoes are typically located in or near areas of crustal instability or mountain building. In North America, obsidian is found only in localized areas of the West, where the processes of plate tectonics have created geologic conditions favorable to volcanism and the formation of obsidian. Obsidian typically forms near the end of a volcanic cycle and is often associated with domes of volcanic rock, such as the hills of Glass Buttes, Oregon.

(m)\n\nManifest Destiny is a phrase that expressed the belief that the United States had a divinely inspired mission to expand, spreading its form of democracy and freedom. Advocates of Manifest Destiny believed that expansion was not only good, but that it was obvious ("manifest") and inevitable ("destiny"). Originally a political catch phrase of the 19th century, Manifest Destiny eventually became a standard historical term, often used as a synonym for the territorial expansion of the United States across North America towards the Pacific Ocean.\n\nManifest Destiny was always a general notion rather than a specific policy. The term combined a belief in expansionism with other popular ideas of the era, including American exceptionalism, Romantic nationalism, and a belief in the natural superiority of what was then called the "Anglo-Saxon race". While many writers focus primarily upon American expansionism when discussing Manifest Destiny, others see in the term a broader expression of a belief in America's "mission" in the world, which has meant different things to different people over the years. This variety of possible meanings was summed up by Ernest Lee Tuveson, who wrote: "A vast complex of ideas, policies, and actions is comprehended under the phrase 'Manifest Destiny.' They are not, as we should expect, all compatible, nor do they come from any one source."[1]\n\nThe phrase "Manifest Destiny" was first used primarily by Jackson Democrats in the 1840s to promote the annexation of much of what is now the Western United States (the Oregon Territory, the Texas Annexation, and the Mexican Cession). The term was revived in the 1890s, this time with Republican supporters, as a theoretical justification for U.S. expansion outside of North America. The term fell out of usage by U.S. policy makers early in the 20th century, but some commentators believe that aspects of Manifest Destiny, particularly the belief in an American "mission" to promote and defend democracy throughout the world, continued to have an influence on American political ideology.[2]\n\nNote that this article is not a history of the territorial expansion of the United States, nor is it the story of the westward migration of settlers to the American frontier. Manifest Destiny was an explanation or justification for that expansion and westward movement, or, in some interpretations, an ideology or doctrine which helped to promote the process. This article is a history of Manifest Destiny as an idea, and the influence of that idea upon American expansion.

Analyse key areas of environmental concern for the planet due to the aviation industry?

The only environmental concerns that come to mind are emissions and fuel.\n\nThere are no catalytic converters on aircraft, so any unburnt hydrocarbons or NOx/SOx/COx would be released into the air.\n\nOn the fuel side, most piston aircraft use leaded fuels, so when fuel is spilled or leaks, lead is entering the ground.  The large majority of fuel used in aviation is jet fuel, which is pretty close to diesel or kerosene and so no more harmful than those two.  Ultimately, no aircraft owner is deliberately dumping their leaded fuel, because it's damned expensive. :P

I want to research a doctors experience in the field of prostate cancer.I would like his standing in thisfield

Everyone gets auditted from someone these days so the information will be somewhere out there. Remember that this information has to be carefully interpreted eg some physicians select better cases to treat and may have better outcomes because of this. Ask your doc how many he's done and then just ahve faith. Numbers are just numbers at the end of the day and most people would actually be happier not knowing.\n\nAnd radiotherapy instead of surgery suggests (atleast in the UK) non-curative treatment.\n\nPS If you're friendly with a doctor I'd ask him for personal recommendations, he may even recommend someone if you're not on friendly terms. Remember doctors (should) get a broad level of experience and will have worked with at least a few local urologists/ radiologists. This route is much better than looking for statistics in my opinion

Does/Should Christains concern themselves with worldly conflicts? (ozone, tree cutting, 9/11 conspiracy, etc)?

I'd say yes and no.\n\nYou can't answer all the world's issues.  However, God may want you to help answer one or two issues.  Think of Martin Luther King, Jr., for example.  A Christian preacher, he helped to overturn Jim Crow in the South.  \n\nIf there's an issue you care deeply about, chances are God want to use you to help address that issue.  Think of Queen Esther, or Moses.  Also, John the Baptist criticized King Herod for taking his brother's wife as his own.  Jesus took a little time to address a couple of current events.  (See Luke 13:1-5.)  Remember, too, that Jesus is the savior of the world, not just of individual persons.  \n\nOn the other hand, there is this psalm:\n\nPsalm 131 (NIV)\nA song of ascents. Of David. \n 1 My heart is not proud, O LORD, \n       my eyes are not haughty; \n       I do not concern myself with great matters \n       or things too wonderful for me. \n 2 But I have stilled and quieted my soul; \n       like a weaned child with its mother, \n       like a weaned child is my soul within me. \n\n 3 O Israel, put your hope in the LORD \n       both now and forevermore.\n\nMy advice: strike a balance between worry and apathy.  If God calls you to answer a cause, do so!

If faith without works saves you, is prayer a "work"?

Philip,\n\nIf you pray like a Pharisee, it is works. If you pray like a tax collector, it is not works. Since you are in the Religion and Spirituality section of Yahoo! Answers, I feel it is OK to use a parable of Jesus to illustrate my point.\n\nTo some who were confident of their own righteousness and looked down on everybody else, Jesus told this parable: "Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. The Pharisee stood up and prayed about himself: 'God, I thank you that I am not like other men-robbers, evildoers, adulterers-or even like this tax collector.  I fast twice a week and give a tenth of all I get.' \n\nBut the tax collector stood at a distance. He would not even look up to heaven, but beat his breast and said, 'God, have mercy on me, a sinner.' \n\nI tell you that this man, rather than the other, went home justified before God. For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted."  Luke 18:9-14\n\nCouldn’t have said it better myself.\n\nAs to your second question, the answer is, “No.” If I may I would like to go to the best source of truth once again.\n\nThat if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. Romans 10:9\n\nPrayer is just communicating with God, and it can be done audibly or silently. In the case of being saved from death and going to heaven, you have to declare that Jesus is Lord to Jesus with your mouth – or audibly.\n\nMay I add that prayer is 2-way communication? I would rather hear God speak to me than almost anything that I’ve ever experienced. The only thing that I enjoy more is to sense His heart.\n\nGod bless.

It depends on what you are looking for.  If you are looking to see if they are a sex offender in california they have Megan's law website that discloses the sex offenders information on a website including pictures, where they live and what crime they have committed.\n\nIf you are looking for more of the Criminal side of it, most states have public court houses that will disclose and provide limited amounts of information about the person you are looking for and what they have done.  But that is more of a state by state and what they can and cannot report kind of thing.

Can someone tell me the 50 elements found near the surface of the earth?  I think there's oxygen, iron...?

It depends on if you are looking at large quanities or just any ammount goes. It also depends on if you are looking at elements that are only found in compounds or not. Oxygen, hydrogen, argon, carbon, nitrogen, alluminium, silicon, iron, tugstan, lithium, potassum, titanium to name a few. almost all of the elements can be found near the earth's surface except those that are man made, usually the extremly heavy ones like plutonium.


What is a slingshot in badminton? is it a fault?

They talk about it in the link below. I think it's basically the effect of the string bed on the racket kind of being pushed back as the shuttlecock hits it, and then bouncing back, sending the shuttlecock on its trajectory, much like a slingshot works: the sling material is pulled back, and then when you let go, it flings the object forward at great speed.\n\nSo, no, it's not a fault, it's just the effect that occurs when the shuttlecock hits the racket.


will australia get past the first round.?

I'm of the opinion they can get past the first round for the following reasons:\n\n(1) Two of their main players, Viduka and Kewell, have both had excellent seasons so far, Viduka is scoring for fun at the moment and Harry K is playing towards his potential at my beloved Liverpool.  The rest of the team is not bad.\n\n(2) Although Brazil is the worry in their group, Japan and Croatia should not be big threats, especially not Japan.  Clearly, they will be fighting for 2nd place in the group but they should be able to achieve that - it all depends on their preparations for the tournament.\n\nI can't see them progressing any further than that though.
