What type of poetry did T.S. Eliot write?

Eliot's work, following his conversion to Christianity and the Church of England, is sometimes religious in nature and also attempts to preserve historical English and broadly European values that Eliot thought important. In 1928, Eliot summarised his beliefs well when he wrote in the preface to his book For Lancelot Andrewes that "The general point of view [of the book's essays] may be described as classicist in literature, royalist in politics, and anglo-catholic in religion." \nEliot's poetry was first criticized as not being poetry at all. Another criticism has been of his widespread interweaving of quotes from other authors into his work.\n\nHis early works, like "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock" and The Waste Land, draw on a wide range of cultural reference to depict a modern world that is in ruins yet somehow beautiful and deeply meaningful. Eliot uses techniques like pastiche and juxtaposition to make his points without having to argue them explicitly. While Eliot's poetry underwent significance transformations over the course of his career, his poems also bear many unifying aspects: all of Eliot's poetry is marked by a conscious desire to bring together the intellectual, the aesthetic, and the emotional in a way that both honors the past and acknowledges the present.

How can I make a website with data base support?

Find an ISP that gives you database support like CrystalTech.com.  Don't use Godaddy hosting even though they have databases... they don't let you connect directly to them to do backups so once your data is there, you're screwed if you ever want to move it.\n\nOf course all that assumes you know how to write web pages that can access and use a database!

If your town doesn't have a mayor but you would like one how do you start up one?

If you don't have a mayor or city council, it sounds like your town is not an incorporated city. To incorporate the city and create a town charter, you would need to contact the seat of your county and ask them what the process is and if it would truly be beneficial to your community.

What was the biggest motivator for expansion in early civilized groups?

I don't have any solid research but I imagine there were at least a few general reasons:\n\nTo spread out a kingdom because individuals and their livestock needed more land, OR to accomodate growing populations in a certain kingdom/city/empire.\n\nTo provide a safer buffer from enemies, that is, cities in the center of an increasing territory for better protection.\n\nTo secure resources or trade routes\n\nTo convert other people to the expanding religion\n\nTo populate newly/randomly discovered territories\n\nI am editing now, I suppose those things could have been the reason in the very earliest of times but in prehistoric societies, I bet survival sums it up pretty well. Maybe not expansion but certainly the nomadic thing...pick up and move to beat the weather or a threatening pack of animals, to find food or land appropriate to grow food and support livestock. Territory would certainly have had something to do with it, if there was a serious enough pissing contest with a threatening enough adversary, such as an unfriendly neighboring clan, a settlement of people might pick up and move to give themselves more safety by giving the big guy wider berth.

How do I turn of file sharing on LimeWire?

You can do like the other guy said: share a blank folder; or you can uninstall limewire. Limewire sooooo gets on my nerves by doing that. Even when I close it, it reopens, to share files. It hogs my memory and crashes the computer (that I just bought)\\nI usually just uninstall it if I get annoyed at it, and later, since i like it, I'll reinstall and use until annoyance. It's not hard to install/uninstall, so I'm ok with it.


The light was not reflected.  Think about this:  if you look into someone's eye (through their pupil), can you see the back of their eye?  No.  The light is actually absorbed by special cells in the retina called photoreceptors (rods and cones).  These cells start the transmission of light information to the brain.

Imagine you have a drainage network of rivers, tributaries, and streams.  Now imagine one particular path of drainage, from head waters to delta.  If somehow (erosion, for example) somewhere along this path the water found a new shortcut to another part of the drainge system, then that water would have been "autocaptured".\n\nGet out a map of Illinois and the surrounding area.  The Illinos Waterway goes from Lake Michigan at Chicago to the Mississippi river at St. Louis.  The Mississipi river flows along the western border of Illinois.  Now look at the area between LaSalle, Ill. (on the Waterway) and Davenport, Iowa (by the Mississippi).  There is a set of streams in this area.  If they managed to link together and cause the Mississippi to be diverted near Davenport to LaSalle, then the Illinois Waterway would have captured the Mississippi.  Since these are part of the same drainage system, it would be called an autocapture.\n\nThe link below may explain better with illustrations. Look at pages 9 and 10:\nhttp://www.geography.wisc.edu/classes/geog320/network_and_basin.pdf

Does your current job have anything to do with your college degree?

My major was in experimental psychology.\n\nFirst job out of college: CSR for DSL company\nSecond Job: Helper for HVAC company (Heating & Air)\n\nKeep in mind, these were temp jobs while I looked for a real job.\n\nFirst real job offer came about 2 months after graduating, which is very quick considering the average is 6. Job was as a probation and parole agent for the state, which is somewhat related to psychology (15 hours in psych were required for the job)\n\nQuit to apply to med school and worked in college admissions for awhile. Now in med school. \n\nUnless you have a trade degree in nursing or engineering, your job will probably have nothing to do with your major.

where in the internet can I get information about stem cell therapy procedure in detail?

Be cautious because there are companies (at least one I've read of) marketing stem cell therapies that have no scientific basis. There's no reason to think that what they are doing will work. This company has been charging something like ten thousand dollars for a treatment and moving from country to country as they have been shut down.\n\nI understand the need for treatments now, but it's sad for a company to take so much money from someone who is very sick by taking advantage of their illness.\n\nWhat has been offered is a transfusion with hematopoietic stem cells, which means blood stem cells. These are cells that have already "decided" to be blood cells, but still have the potential to become different kinds of blood cells, such as red blood cells, white blood cells.\n\nThere are two or three major, major problems with what this company has been offering. One is that they are saying the blood stem cells can cure non-blood related diseases, like diseases that have to do with nerves. The cells they inject have already decided to be blood cells. This is a problem.\n\nThe second problem is that, for the hematopoietic stem cells to graft, meaning to take hold and grow in a recipient, the patient would have to go through a bone marrow transplant, meaning severe treatment to kill their own bone marrow. Otherwise the immune system will kill off the donor stem cells.\n\nThe third problem is that, even if there were some stem cells in the blood that could become nerve or other tissue, if those are just injected, they run the risk of starting other cancers. This point is a little bit tricky, and that's because there is a lot of active research going on in this area. In the idea of using stem cells for therapy, they need to have some instructions (meaning molecular signals) before being injected, otherwise they form tumors. This is not ready for patients yet.\n\nThe other very serious risk is that anyone who signed up for such a treatment is putting their trust in a company that has been put out of business for doing bad science, in the case I'm thinking of. There's no way to know whether they have screened their donors for HIV and other blood borne infectious diseases.\n\nPeople are working very hard to try to come up with better treatments. I know it's not a good answer for anyone who is sick now. Research budgets are being cut at the federal level, and a lot of good labs are having to slow their work or shut down. If you want more progress faster, write your congress person and tell them you support more NIH funding. We're doing our best with your money.

why doesn't glue stick to the inside of the bottle it come in?

The interior of the Earth reaches temperatures of 5650 ± 600 kelvins [3] [4]. The planet's internal heat was originally generated during its accretion (see gravitational binding energy), and since then additional heat has continued to be generated by the decay of radioactive elements such as uranium, thorium, and potassium. The heat flow from the interior to the surface is only 1/20,000 as great as the energy received from the Sun.\n\n5650 Kelvin = 5377 Celsius = 9710 Fahrenheit\n\nThe Sun's temperature:\nSurface temperature  5780 K\nTemperature of corona  5 MK\nCore temperature  ~13.6 MK

Why do people faint in the face of danger?

People that faint in the face of danger, are suffering from a suddenly and significant drop in blood pressure.\n\nFainting is actually a valuable self protective response.When blood pressure drops this way, there is a chance the brain won't get enough blood, because it's at the highest point of the body. That's no good - your brain needs a steady supply of the oxygen the blood carries. So when your body can't get enough blood to your brain because of low blood pressure, it protects you by bringing your brain down to the blood. In other words, the purpose of a faint is to ensure a blood supply to the brain by bringing your head down to the ground, so your heart doesn't have to overcome gravity.


How to get High Ranking in Search Engines?

Hi Escante, I could have gone on lenght on answering your query. At the first part, one need's to understand the meaning of page rank. You can study a detailed article on it at http://www.webworkshop.net/pagerank.html\n\nIn short, here's an example. There's an election and several candidates have stood up. Its natural that the guy with the most votes wins. Analogously, whenever a external page links to your website, it casts a vote for your website. So, when you search for a relevant keyword for your pages, the results come as per the no of links that you have collected.\n\nTo get more links, you can ask some of your friends who have website to put link to your website. The more the links, the higher is your rank in google results. An alternative is to start your own blog on 3-4 websites, and in each blog, put a link to your website. Indeed, if your site has quality content, mpressed visitors start linking you, specially the blogging community.\n\nAnother important part is that who links you. For example, if you get a link from a website which already has a high page rank, you automatically get a better rank. For example, if you get a link from microsoft.com or cnet.com, which have a highest page ranks, your rank shoots up automatically.\n\nGoogle rank is composed of many other factors, but the only factor it misses out is the popularity by visitors who go to the links directly. Yahoo does a good job by keeping that into account. If you carefully see the link that are seen in the Yahoo search results, a similar vote is also casted by clicking on the link in the search results. It could be possible that your website has huge no. of visitors who come through searches, but small number of links. Then its Yahoo rank would be high (more accurate), but google rank would be low. There have been many such interesting cases, so don't just consider google as your only target. Why google does not keep this 'click popularity' feature is because it takes a certain delay of time( for registering of vote on Yahoo and forwarding to the actual link), which Google does not want to take.\n\nThings You Should Never Do In Life:\nNever try to promote your site commercially from spamsters. Some of their sites are banned from google database. And if they give a link to your website, your page rank drops down drastically, and even might get removed from the search results. Also, do not link to their websites.\n\nThis is the solution to crux of your problem. You can read further on such search engine optimizations at the following sites :\n\nhttp://wolfram.org/writing/howto/3.html\nhttp://www.ssw.com.au/SSW/Standards/Rules/RulestoBetterGoogleRankings.aspx\nhttp://www.netmechanic.com/news/vol3/promo_no16.htm\nhttp://us.ecademy.com/node.php?id=58077\nhttp://www.paramountwebmasters.com/improve_my_rankings_on_google.php\nhttp://www.graphic-design.com/Web/increase_rank.html

are there any jobs for 13 year olds in Austin Texas?

It's pretty much illegal to give someone under 16 a job, or a "real" job because of child labor laws. So some places give jobs to 15 year olds, but the laws are so strict even they can't work more than about 15-20 hours a week, so most places won't even bother with you until you're 16. \nTry getting a job helping out a parent, babysitting, or start selling things on ebay.\n\nps.

how do u lose weight if diet and exercise dont work?

Exercise *does* work. You just have to do it regularly and at a level where it is challenging to you but not so hard that you can't stick to it.\n\nAs far as diet, just don't eat when you're not hungry. That alone will help keep your weight under control no matter what foods you eat.


why is taking a derivative and an intergral opposite operations?

Imagine that you've integrated a function up to some value x.  Now, if you move to x+dx you get a sliver of area equal to f(x) times dx.  So the rate of change of the integral (the derivative of the integral) is just the value of the function.\n\nIn other words, how fast you're adding to the integral is the height of the function.

Have you ever said or done something which blew a friendship?

Yes, a woman with whom I was a really good friend (I will call her Jane) just turned on me and almost refuses to talk to me now. We don't live near each other anymore, so it's not as big a deal now as it once was. But I have no idea what I did or said to turn her against me. I am one who has really good relationships with people and long-term friendships. So this really took me by surprise.\n\nJane and I used to spend hours together every week and a lot of time on the phone. We were both members of the same professional association. I saw her there and she was really rude to me like I had offended her in a big way. \n\nI am still mystified by this situation and it took place nearly eight years ago. I was told, by a mutual friend who asked me about the break up that Jane had done this in other relationships. That made me feel a little less confused, but I am still saddened by the loss of what I considered a great friendship.


Is America going to still be a super power in 20 years time?

The rise of China and India is without question. These two countries, with their enormous populations and embrace of market economies, will challenge the United States as economic superpowers. Europe, with its aging populations and lack-luster economies will fall further behind. The United States will remain a dominant economic and military superpower, and will likely remain a major player in diplomatic negotiations, disaster relief, and regional conflicts.

Flash memory is one type of the two main storage methods - hard drives and flash.

The flash memory for iPod Nano's is provided by Samsung.\n\nFlash memory cannot be rewritten as often as hard drives.

If it were your choice, would you live in the ocean? What fish would you be or would you not be a fish?

Being a Great White Shark would be awesome...I'd be able to sense a heartbeat through the water, and I could smell blood a mile away. I'd never have to worry about dental care!


Sharks have sharp teeth because to kill animals/preys quickly and to avoid the preys from escaping with little injuries.\n\nIf the teeth were not sharp, how would sharks kill \npreys if the preys are virtually unhurt bacause of blunt teeth?\n\nAlso, God made the teeth sharp so that the killing will be quick and less painful.\n\nSharp teeth made sharks hydrodynamically superquick. Teeth covering their bodies make that happen.\n\nWith very sharp teeth, sharks do not have to exert big bite force to kill preys.

Optical vs RCA inputs for surround sound?

Standard RCA connectors will not and should not carry digital signals.  In order to use the 5.1 RCA connectors, your DVD player will have to decode the Dolby or DTS signal, convert it to analog, and pass it through the 7.1 outputs to your receiver. Your receiver will not have to know if it is Dolby of DTS because it will be an analog pass through.


can women join the queen's guard at buckingham palace?

Current UK Government policy is that women may not have roles that involve direct combat, they may join the regiments but only in a supporting role.\n\nThe guard at the palace is not just ceremonial, the weapons and ammunition are real and the soldiers are issued rules of engagement about when they can open fire.\n\nSo, the answer is no, they can't join the guard.\n\nPersonally, I'm not in favour of women fighting in the armed forces.  However, if they can do the training and be as effective as the men, then I can see no legitimate reason to stand in their way.

Rome and the USA are connected through it's morals, except that Rome was out to conquer the world the USA is out to control the world. (The difference is that the USA isn't actually making the conquered countries part of it, but is still establishing it's influence.) However what took Rome a thousand years, took the United States only two-hundred. The USA may be corrupted but it's citizens will stand together when faced with a problem. (WWII)

How do you view a picture that's been X out?

There's two answers to this problem. 10% of the time your computer has trouble loading the picture, and you can merely right click on the X and click on "Show Picture" and then it will load. 90% of the time your computer simply can't find the picture where it was supposed to be, and there's nothing you can ever do to fix that. Perhaps the pictures were supposed to be in an attachment, perhaps their weblink was taken down, for whatever reason your computer can't find them and you're just screwed.

I would think to redeem oneself would be to do one's best to correct the transgressions of the past. Redemption would be the forgiveness attained for past transgressions. \nWhile we can not go into the past and prevent what we have done, we can try to correct mistakes as best we can now. Sometimes that may be as simple as an apology for mispoken comments. To be redeemed, you must acknowledge that something was done that should not have been done, and then do what you can to rectify the problem.

If you are partly blind, you must get a certified statement from an eye doctor or registered optometrist that: \nYou cannot see better than 20/200 in the better eye with glasses or contact lenses, or\n\nYour field of vision is not more than 20 degrees. \n\n\n  If your eye condition will never improve beyond these limits, the statement should include this fact. You must keep the statement in your records. \n\n  If your vision can be corrected beyond these limits only by contact lenses that you can wear only briefly because of pain, infection, or ulcers, you can take the higher standard deduction for blindness if you otherwise qualify.

What is contiguous files? What is defragmenting?

I used this story when trying to teach a group of retired, and very confused people, how to use a PC.\n\nA little librarian has to get all the information together each time you open a program.  After some time adding new programs and using old ones the librarian has made a mess of the whole library.  When you go to open a program he's got to run around here and there to find the pieces of the program he needs for you to use it.  So once in a while (I do it every day) he has to fix it all up, get all the papers together and file the programs away in alphabetical order so that when you need him to open a program or do anything he can easily pick it off the shelf and it's ready to go.\n\nDefragmenting is organizing all the information on your hard drive and contiguous files are files that are in alphabetical order, nice and neat.

Is there any studendt of physics course in MS grade?

hmm, well I'm a college student, I'm a freshman, but I'm a physics major and love talking about physics :)  I can help you with any physics problem or questions or something if you want.  I'm usually on the physics part of this site because I'm a dork like that and I like answering people's physicsy questions in order to procrastinate my papers and studying for my finals :p  I actually tutor kids in physics, so if you have any questions, feel free to ask, my e-mail is cmi3@yahoo.com


in the formula: 10.6802 x T x (D-T); where is the constant derived from.?

You're talking about weight of steel tubing in lbs. per foot, which is\n10.6802   X  Wall Thickness X  ( Diameter - Wall Thickness ),\nand for Round Tubing it is 10.6802 x T x (OD - T), where OD is Outside Diameter. The websites I listed below just offer the formula, with no explanation for the constant, but I'll try to give it some explanation.\n\nThe constant must be related to the properties of the material in question, steel in our case, which is made of carbon and iron. The concentration of these depends on the application and it causes the weight to vary, consequently, the constant will vary also.\n\nThe 10.6802 must be the constant of weight (if we have to put a name on it) for commercial piping steel, and its units should be lbs/ft, so that you will get pounds in your result. I’m not a mechanics or materials engineer so I’m just putting the basics of material’s science to work here.\n\nI recommend you look in The Science & Engineering of Materials, by Donald R. Askeland, Pradeep P. Phulé, or any other materials book.


If there's a runner on second, and the pitcher throws a wild pitch for ball four, may the runner advance?

Unless you're talking about Little League or another youth baseball league that doesn't use traditional baseball rules, the ball is live at all times unless the umpire declares otherwise.  That means any runner can advance to any base at any time they want to try.  Actually, a wild pitch would be an obvious time for the runner at second to advance.

what is a rocket (missile ) made of? Why?

Rocket-powered missiles are known as rockets if they lack post-launch guidance or missiles or guided missiles if they are able to continue tracking a target after launch. Cruise missiles typically use some form of jet engine for propulsion.\n\nMissiles are often used in warfare as a means of delivering destructive force (usually in the form of an explosive warhead) upon a target. Aside from explosives, other possible types of destructive missile payloads are various forms of chemical or biological agents, nuclear warheads, or simple kinetic energy (where the missile destroys the target by the force of striking it at high speed). Sometimes missiles are used to deliver payloads designed to break infrastructure without harming people. For example, in the Gulf War cruise missiles were used to deliver reels of carbon filament to electricity stations and switches, effectively disabling them by forming short circuits.\n\nMissiles which spend most of their trajectory in unpowered flight, and which don't use aerodynamics to alter their course, are known as ballistic missiles (because their motion is largely governed by the laws of ballistics). These are in contrast to cruise missiles, which spend most of their trajectory in powered flight.

Do you know where I can find a test to determine wich kind of study I must go for?

Okay here's how it goes!\n\nIts been three months and your question is just sitting here for someone to come along and say pick the first answer or why havn't you picked it yet. \n\nI spent all morning voting for answers that were 3 months old and all of them had something like that. \n\nIf you pick the answer yourself you'll get 3 pts back instead of 2. But if you vote you only get 2 pts back and the best possible answer probably won't get credit because they've long forgotten about it.\n\nO yeah' Go Raiders!!! *RZ*\n\nP.s "I don't agree with going around not seriously answering these questions but if I don't someone else will." \n\nO yeah if the above answers suck, delete your question or pick me! :) J/k I'd ask it again and don't let it get this old.~


Wow--what an unusual question!  You sound to me like someone who associates moving up in an organization with a punishment.  You appear to suggest that remaining unmotivated, slovenly, and largely ignorant is preferrable to trying to improving your lot in life.  Is that what you really want?\n\nThe only benefit to a promotion is just more money and more responsibility.  It should be a jolt of confidence that your superiors believe you to be able enough to take on a more challenging position.  It's an affirmation that your knowledge and experience in your field has made you stick out in a positive way.\n\nYour life will be filled with challenges, both good and bad.  Now is the time for you to meet all of them head on--not trying to assess what the damage will be to your present state of mind.  That is a sure recipe for missing out on some of life's really great things.


Could you help me to do a reserch for meassuring the sevice quality of a civil engineering organization?

I think going through some of the professional organizations for the civil engineering profession may help you. Try the American Society of Civil Engineers or the Canadian one (I'm putting the websites below). Some states also have their own Civil Engineering Society groups, so you could try there as well. Hope this helps a bit and good luck! :)

Who is the best American-born, white player active in the NBA?

Kudos to the person who pointed out that Kidd is bi-racial, and add Bibby to that list as well. To whomever suggested Christian Laettner, you must not have seen him play since the UK-Duke buzzer beater that broke my heart in 1992. He's been a bust and a stiff ever since. I'll side with the guy who said Brad Miller, since he's one of the best at his position period (the hardest position to find in the NBA, no less), and would have to be at least top-5 in a list of American-born, white, active players.

Is Arnold Schwarzenegger a murderer now for killing Stanley "Tookie" Williams?

no -- he was not in the jury that convicted Williams.  he was not the 'executioner'.  Williams was convicted by a jury of his peers and sentenced to be executed.  Arnold had NOTHING to do with it other than saying that his sentence would be fulfilled.

I don't think we'll ever know. The producers just answer questions with more questions. \n\nAnyway, I think they are a bunch of disgruntled members of the Dharma Initiative that figured out that the 'button' is bogus and nothing will happen if they don't hit it. Think about it. When the Instant Message came thru on the computer it had to be the Others. They were probably at one of the other Dharma sites. How would Walt figure out how to use that computer? (Remember, "Don't use the computer to contact other members...") It was the Others who took Walt and are pretending to be him on the computer to trap Jack and his crew. Aren't there 5 total Dharma sites on the island? But why do the Others go after kids?

Can a change in your sleeping pattern affect your health?

Sure if you don't get enough sleep or you sleep too much, it will certainly have an effect on your health. \n\nNot getting enough sleep can make someone experiance symptoms associated with mental illness. It can also wear your body down so your immune system isn't as strong.\n\nI wouldn't think that changing your schedule would make much difference if you still got the same amount of sleep. There might be a period of time where you body adjust to the new schedule but it will get use to it eventually.


Where did the whole idea of Santa Claus come from?

Well Santa Claus isn't an idea. He's real, he was born into a wealthy family in Italy, and his name was Saint Nicholas, when he was born his mother died in birth. and he lived with his father. His father died when he was a teenager, and from then he would travel Europe spreading Peace and joy, back in his home town in Italy, he heard about this man that was going to put his daughters into prostitution to pay for taxes. So on every night of Hanukah(not sure about the spelling) he take a bag of money and toss it through the window of this man house. On the first night the man was curious of who was giving him the money, so on every nighthe would wait u for the bag then try to see who through the in the window, until the night when  he saw Saint Nicholas and thanked him dearly for  the money. And when Saint Nicholas died they put his remains in a tomb in Bary(i think thats the proper name) which is in Turkey. And also thew Blood of Saint Nicholas still runs in some of us. So right now we dont Know if He lives in Greenland at the North Pole or if he's still in Italy you never Know. Like my question i just askes about 15 minutes ago ; Where did god come from, what was before god? , trust me it's tricky, but only some questions can be answered.

Why do we kill inmates that don't want to die but not terminally ill who want to end their suffering?

You paint your question with too broad a stroke.\n\nWe kill some inmates because society has determined that certain criminals deserve death.  They deserve the greatest punishment that society can give when they commit certain capital crimes, like mass murder and rape.  To compare the justification behind the death penalty (a retributive form of punishing the guilty) with the justification behind refusing assisted suicide (a social policy norm) is improper.\n\nSociety (except at present Oregon) has placed a strict line between aiding death and allowing death.  In all states, an individual who is terminally ill may refuse medical treatment.  Refusal of medical treatment may result in death, and often does.  For some, it is more painful to continue to live, and they'd prefer to hasten death.\n\nSociety has made a judgment that the doctor's role should be to heal, not to kill.  Assisting death is just too horrible for society to handle at this stage, and in my opinion, rightly.  However, the justifications for capital punishment and assisted suicide are very different and should not be so easily conflated.

...READ MY COMMENTS BELOW AFTER THE --'S...\n\n>>Yes, Bush made the same make believe stuff that Clinton, Gore, Kerry, Albright, Bush Sr., France, Russia, England, Saudi Arabia, Germany, The UN have all talked about for over 12 years. <<\n--Incorrect, Kerry, France, and the UN have never said that IRAQ was in current possession of WMD's, which is why the UN supported the inspection reports, and inspection incursions into the country.\n\n>>Iraq has and used WMD's. <<\n--Yes, in the past they have, however since the first gulf war, IRAQ stopped producing and storing WMD's.  The proof is in the UN inspection reports, sattelite immagry, heat tomography of iraq, and other inspection reports.  After the first Gulf War, Iraq lost quite a bit of revenue, and no longer persued WMD's.\n\n>>Saddam and Iraq funded terrorism. <<\n--Incorrect.  Saddam didn't like terrorists, he didn't feel that attacking thousands of people was warrented.  However, he did oppress his own people, not allowing them basic civil liberties, and not allowing them to keep that much money for themselves.  Afganistan, IRAN and Pakistan have harbored terrorists and terror cells, and funded them, which is why the conflict was EXTENDED to Iraq,  under suspicion, but not through fact.  The main inpetus to attack Iraq due to terrorism, is that Iraq refused to turn over any terror suspects to the USA; Iraq claimed it was not justified and they could handle the problem themselves, the USA disaggreed.\n\n>>Iraq was a threat to creating a peacefull stable Middle East. <<\n--Yes, to the Middle East Treaty that was hopeful for the USA and UN 12 years ago, Iraq was indeed a threat.  However, after the Gulf War, Iraq stopped expanding and forcing it's interests beyond it's own borders.  The problem, here, as regards to the threat to the middle east, is that Iraq threatened to withhold it's oil reserves; which is something that the Middle East, Iran and the UN couldn't tolerate.\n\n>>No one ever said that Iraq funded or supported the attacks on 9/11. <<\n--Incorrect, even Bush Jr. stated that there was a plausable link between Saddam and Al Quida and the attacks on the Twin Towers.  The problem here, is that there was no conclusive proof that this actually happened.  The main thing we found from the investigation was that Iraq refused Al Quida support, and though they didn't denounce the attack, they also didn't support the action of these terrorists.  This type of attack isn't Saddam's style, it is in the style of his brother, which he has kept at bay for several years.  \n\n>>We all know that is not true. It was investigated and we know it was not the case. But it is the truth that Saddam paid $50,000 to the families of suicide bombers in Isreal, Jordan, Saudi Arabia and Indonesia. <<\n--Saddam did indeed pay the families of these bombers, however, not a single family of these bombers was related to those who destroyed the Twin Towers.  This is evidance out of context.\n\n>>We do know that Saddam aided Osama and Al Queda with money, supplies and weapons. <<\n--Incorrect.  Iraq and Saddam had no ties to the Al Quida sect in Afganistan.  They didn't support the training, they didn't support the ethos, and they didn't support Osama.  Al Quida and Osama did in fact contact Saddam, however, we know through this investigation that Saddam refused their support and recripcal aid.\n\n>>We are in Iraq because we have vowed to rid this world of the extremist islamic terrorist that will stop at nothing, and are capable of ending our way of life and killing hundred of thousands of Americans abroad and here on our own soil. Wake Up America! We are not safe and isolated anymore! We need to remember 9/11 and Keep up the fight!! <<\n--Incorrect again.  We are in Iraq because we deposed their government, we killed several thousand

When you speak to another about a current emotion, John IS upset. \n2)To BE somewhere is correct and after you left, you have BEEN there. \n3)Should is a desire unfulfilled and shall is an action about to be done. "I should do this" Means, the desire is there, not necessarily the actions behind it. "I shall do this" is speaking of an act about to tak place. 4)Must and Have to are used the same way, however, MUST is more proper. (Going and gonna mean the same but going is more proper)\n5) go to www.google.com there search for adjective listings, it will help to know them. \n6)the quote about the company picnic is corect, it is a formal way of saying "Aww, we are going to miss you, friend"\n7)Yes, that quote is granmmatically correct. \nThe English language is tough to learn, and it is full of double standards and screwy rules, but hang in there, it will be worth it.


What is happening to the large areas where oil is be pumped from the earths core?

Ehh.. oil is pumped from just below the surface. The Core is made of Molten Lava, which isn't too useful a fuel source yet ;)\n\nNow, as for the caverns where we find oil, which is what I think that you're thinking of, those just empty gradually over time. Oil deposits aren't usually so large that draining the oil causes destability. It's the same thing as underground aquifers, which are a lot easier to find information on IMO.

What is a reverse mortgage and do you advise it as a retirement option?

A reverse mortgage can be a good source of income for someone who needs addtional money and can't get it from anywhere else. Your home equity is used as income. You do not make monthly payments you receive them. Sometimes you can also get a lump sum if needed.

Different states have different laws.  The best thing you can do is contact a lawyer.  In my state most lawyers will answer a question without charge.  Usually the answer is that you need legal assistance.  There are many questions you left unanswered...  Are or were you and the baby's father married; if so, he would most likely have rights.  If his name is on the birth certificate and you are not and have not been married, that does not give him any rights unless you grant them to him.  Another possibility is that if he has parental rights, you can have them terminated under certain circumstances such as no contact or support for over a year.  Like I said earlier, it depends on the laws of your state.  In my state termination of parental rights cost $1,500 four years ago.  You might pursue a protection order if you feel the father is abusive to the baby or yourself.

How many persons, from their heart like to marry the one they love?

I think everyone would like to marry the one they love, but I think that sometimes people confuse love with lust or infatuation and that is why people "fall out of love" so often today.  They don't wait to see if it is really love.

What steps can I take to become a Budhist?

I found this (the link is below)\n\nHow do I become a Buddhist?\nJoin a Buddhist sangha (a temple, church or group), support them, be supported by them and continue to learn more about the Buddha's teachings. Read about the teachings, apply them in your life, attend services and retreats, open your heart and mind to the working of Great Compassion. Then, when you are ready, you can formally become a Buddhist by undertaking the Affirmation or Ordination Ceremony.\n\nAffirmation and Ordination\n \nThe decision to become a Buddhist is marked by either Affirmation or Ordination Ceremony. These two types of ceremonies are different but share certain religious aspects. First of all, the Affirmation Ceremony or the Kikyoshiki is unique to Shin Buddhism only. It is a form of personal religious confirmation, in which the participant publicly acknowledges his/her orientation and commitment to the Pure Land path of Shinran Shonin and the recognition of the working of Great Compassion (Other Power) in their lives. As stated above, this ceremony is unique to Shin Buddhism, which is a lay religious movement and not a religious order. This ceremony does not entail the transmission of tthe Three Jewels or the Five Precepts from teacher (monk) to disciple. In Shin Buddhism, we are each others teachers. Moreover, according to Shin Buddhism, the ultimate transmission can only come from the direct and personal experience of the working of Great Compassion, which is called shinjin or true entrusting. What's more, Shin Buddhism does not formally have lay precepts, which can be received from human to human transmission; instead they manifest naturally through the shinjin experience.\n \nThe Affirmation Ceremony allows the participant to publicly acknowledge his/her personal faith experience in the Buddha (Amida), the Dharma (the working of Other Power) and the Sangha (those who entrust themselves to the Other Power). Furthermore, the Affirmation Ceremony may also confirm the Five Precepts as the best ways to compassionately live in our suffering world. Again this is not a transmission of the ethical code but just a reminder of its importance. In addition, the Affirmation Ceremony may include the reciting of the Six Paramitas, the Bodhisattva Vows and the Shin Buddhist Affirmation as reminders of the Buddhist path. In this ceremony, recipients are given a Buddhist name (homyo), an Affirmation Certificate and Shin Buddhist Okesa. There is usually a small donation requested to cover the costs.\n \nIn contrast, the Ordination Ceremony is only conferred by a fully ordained monk, in which the lay participant receives the  human to human or teacher to student, transmission of the Three Jewels and the Five Precepts and sometimes even can take the Bodhisattva Vows. The participant is then ordained as a lay follower or as it is know in sanskrit as an upasaka (ordained lay male follower) or upasika (ordained lay female follower). He/she then receives a certificate and a Buddhist name. As a result, the ordainee is formally initiated as a lay member and linked to a monastic order, in which he/she dedicates him/herself to the Three Jewels and the Five Precepts. The ordaining monk is usually seen as the lay followers main teacher.  These ordained lay followers may then, in the future, decide to intensify their practice and become fully ordained as monks (bhikkus) or nuns. The Ordination Ceremony is conducted by monastic orders only. Since the BFF is a lay congregation, it  does not conduct ordinations. If you are interested in lay ordination please refer to our links page and click on the Hai An Pagoda in New Britain, Connecticut and e-mail the Venerable Thich Tri Hoang.


Is there a way to get a Series 7 without being sponsored?

A prerequisite is that you are sponsored prior to the test.  I would talk with Northwestern Mutual.


Bone is a relatively hard and lightweight composite material, formed mostly of calcium phosphate in the chemical arrangement termed calcium hydroxyapatite. It has relatively high compressive strength but poor tensile strength. While bone is essentially brittle, it does have a degree of significant elasticity contributed by its organic components (chiefly collagen). Bone has an internal mesh-like structure, the density of which may vary at different points.


WHAT WERE THE MAJOR CAUSES THAT LED TO THE FIRST WORLD WAR?

i looked the answer to this question up for you; i thought i knew the answer but wanted to clear up some of the finer points. i won't repeat the answers given but i will direct you to this web site:\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Causes_of_World_War_I


The actual answer, despite the rampant speculation offered so far, is that it depends.  In many countries and many states, attempted suicide is not illegal.  One source reports that as of 1963, six states, North and South Dakota, Washington, New Jersey, Nevada, and Oklahoma, still criminalized it.\n\nFor all the discussion of Texas and its law, Texas does not criminalize either suicide or attempted suicide.  Many states may have mandatory psychological examinations and detention for individuals who attempt suicide, but these proscriptions are rehabilitative, not criminal or punitive.\n\nIf you specify the particular jurisdiction in a new question, I'll go forward and research that particular jurisdiction's history, but the question is too open-ended and shallow for deep research at this time.


What is the most dangerous thing you ever made?

ok, didn't end up making it because it would probably have burnt down my HS football field, but senior year in AP physics after the AP test was over we were told we were going to make rockets.  Then he tells us they're only water pressure rockets.  So my friend and I got pissed because we thought we were going to be able to make real rockets, so we decided we should make ours blow up in mid-air since we were seniors anyway, it was the end of the year, and we were already accepted to college. We wanted to go out with a bang :p  so after discussing it for awhile, we were going to fill up one of the bottles used for structure inside the water-pressure rocket with methane gas right out of the stove, and then put a remote-control car in there with it.  When the rocket was released and at its maximum height, we were going to press the accelerate button on the remote, causing the spark necessary to cause the gas to explode.  Bam, huge ball of flame over the football field.  We didn't do it, we got too scared that burning pieces would come down and land on someone, or burn down the football field, which is where we were testing the rockets.


Will listening to audiobooks provide someone with the same knowledge and understanding as reading actual books

It depends on the person - some people learn better from things they hear than from what they read, while others don't.\n\nThe important thing to consider is whether there are things in the book - illustrations, diagrams, equations - that would be helpful but would be left out of an audio version. Also, many audiobooks are abridged, so there may simply be less material in the audiobook version.\n\nOn the other hand, some books - like Richard Feynman's lectures - are better when you listen to the original audio than when you read the transcribed book.

can you buy valium over the counter in costa rica?

Technically no, but it's amazing what you can get when you present the issue in a way that a pharmacist will feel safe about the transaction. \n\nI am amazed at how easy it is to get controlled drugs here in Costa Rica. I am not an abuser; rather have medical problems that require medications that must have prescriptions in the U.S.  Here I can merely show the prescription bottle (no ID required) or tell the pharmacist what I need. On New Years Eve I had an awful back pain and was able to get codeine with no problem.\n\nNow, if they think you want the drugs for illegal or recreational purposes, that's another story!


I quote:\n"A great diversity of opinion exists as to the authorship of this book. Two Talmudic traditions hold that Job either lived in the time of Abraham or of Jacob. Levi ben Laḥma held that Job lived in the time of Moses, by whom the Book of Job was written. Others argue that it was written by Job himself, or by Elihu, or Isaiah. From internal evidence, such as the similarity of sentiment and language to those in the Psalms and Proverbs (see Psalms 88 and 89), the prevalence of the idea of "wisdom," and the style and character of the composition, it is supposed by some to have been written in the time of King David and King Solomon. Some, however place it in around the time of the Babylonian exile. Talmudic tradition treats the story of Job as a parable."\n\nThere is a good discussion of this at:\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Book_of_Job

What are your thoughts on reading minds? :)?

It happens when you least expect it.\n  I believe it is possible to a point just by knowing a person and when you don't know a person, you can tell alot by body language and what they say and don't say. \n But for someone to know exactly what you are thinking at some precise second if they are thinking about it, just won't happen... \n  But think of those times when the phone rings and you know who it is before looking at the caller id.\n  think of those times when you call someone and they say "Gee I was just going to call you"


Why are "balloon" messages from icons in my system tray being hidden?

I suppose you are referring to galaxies composed entirely or at least mostly of antimatter. None have been observed. If there were any, it would certainly be coming into contact with large amounts of matter at some sort of boundary. At that point, the collisions of the two would set off gigantic amounts of gamma rays, which we would be able to see. These have not, however, been observed. This is likely due to the fact that, for some reason as yet unknown, the amount of matter has increased hugely in the universe relative to antimatter since the big bang.

"Cute as a button?" Is that supposed to be a compliment? Since when are buttons cute?

Well, check it out at Answers.com:\n"Also, cute as a bug's ear. Pretty or attractive in a dainty way, as in That baby is cute as a button. Cute originally was a shortening of acute, for “sharp-witted and clever,” but in the early 1800s it also took on its current meaning. Other than that buttons and bug's hearing organs can be small, there is no good explanation for these similes"


If you have a CPAP machine for sleep apnea, how often should it be adjusted?

I think this is one of those "no news is good news" kind of things.  As a fellow sufferer, I know that the pressure setting on your CPAP was prescribed by your doctor based on the resuslts of your sleep lab experience.  As long as the machine is providing the desired results (no snoring or apnea), then I'm pretty sure nothing else need be done.  Obviously, you need to maintain the filters--clean or replace, as the case may be.

How much will it take us to go on jupiter?

Technology now exists that can send probes (very expensive probes) anywhere in the solar system, including Jupiter.  However, it is doubtful that man will ever go there because the planet is a giant gas planet without land to land on, air to breath or temperatures high enough to sustain life.  Also the planet has a powerful gravitational pull and anyone who goes there will stay there.  Mars is a much more hospitable goal for space travel by men (and women too).  Bring your own air!


how long is pink eye highly contagious.?

All types of infectious conjunctivitis are contagious and can spread from one eye to the other by touching the eyes. A child can first become infected from direct contact with someone who has the infection or something that person has touched, such as a used tissue. The infectious organisms can also spread through coughing and sneezing. In addition, certain viruses spread in the summertime when children swim in contaminated water or share contaminated towels. \n\nAllergic and irritant conjunctivitis are not contagious. \n\nThe incubation time for bacterial conjunctivitis is a few days. In viral cases, it can be up to a week.

What do you think is the most serious problem in the world?

The lack of trust between human and human.

It does not end and its growing, before you try tackling such a question, answer the micro-level questions of the same kind.  The universe encompasses all that exists, and by default then, it is largely unknown.  We don't know where the universe ends, and all evidence points to it being endless and growing, therefore we make a conclusion based on a portion of the information actually needed.

WILL SOCIAL SECURITY BE AROUND IN 24 YEARS?

No.  It's entirely possible that there will still be a program called "Social Security," as names sometimes last longer than things, but over the next few decades technology is going to change so dramatically that very little of the current political and economic paradigm will be able to survive intact.  Social Security is already somewhat anachronistic (it assumes structurally, for instance, that a 65 year old is beyond their useful working life and near death) and as reality continues to change around it there is no question that it will have to be transformed in ways which leave it unrecognizable. <3

For a female, is it possible to quit the Air Force during basic training or right after?

Yes...for men and women it is possible to perform a SIE (Self-Initiated Elimination) from basic training.  If you select do to this while at basic training, they will remove you from your flight silently (so as not to embarass you) and you will be sent home.  You may be required to make reparitions on any contracts you signed (e.g. give back your bonus money or any benefits) and you will, in most cases, not be allowed to re-join the military at any future point.  \n\nRight after basic training, you have already signed your contract, and barring issues like conscientiously objecting, coming out as a homosexual, or failing to meet retention standards, you will not be able to easily separate from the Air Force.\n\nI certainly recommend the Air Force though!

I've heard yes and I've heard no.  We simply haven't been keeping weather records long enough to know whether current trends are caused by man or are just the earth's normal weather patterns.

What's the best way to give my notice, on paper, face to face or both?

1.  Be absolutely certain you have a solid job offer, in writing, before you give notice.\n2.  Prepare a list of your current projects that will need to be handed off to someone else.  Also list things you can complete before you want to leave.\n3.  Stealthily remove every personal possession from your workplace that you couldn't live without.  Completely erase any personal email or files from your computer -- don't just put them in the "recycle" bin.\n4.  Ask your boss for a meeting, give him a written resignation letter, saying only that you're leaving the company to advance your career.  NEVER, NEVER, NEVER say anything negative to him about the job, the company, or any co-workers.  \n5.  Propose a date (at least 2 weeks) for your final day, but be prepared to be walked to the door.  Be polite and positive no matter what sort of shit he gives you.\n6.  If asked to participate in an exit interview, answer with vague generalities and no specific complaints.\n7.  Thank him for being such a good boss.\n\nOne day you'll want to use him as a reference, or that company.  Imagine what they'd say about you -- and a little self-control can do wonders.  Making a scene, saying you hate him or the job, or dumping on co-workers will come back to haunt you.

what kind of road bike would you rec for 30-45 mins of exercise 3x per week?

The other answers you've received are excellent, but let me add my two cents.  I, like you, ride several miles a day.  I started riding regularly 13 years ago on a $200 hybrid.  I loved the bike but eventually felt like I deserved something a little nicer.  So, a few years ago I purchase a $600 Performance brand bike.  Again, a good (steel frame) bike.  But now I've come to a point where I want to ride more intensely and farther; so last weekend I purchased a Trek Pilot 5.2.\n\nAll of this is a long-winded way of recommending that you get the best bike you can afford up front, because eventually you may want to go farther, longer, and faster!

Some people are dying to try it.  There are several problems.  It should be administered by someone who is medically qualified but doctors take an oath to not harm their patients.  Also, after the fact can it be proved that someone underwent euthanasia voluntarily without duress?  Will some use it because they are not being treated effectively for pain?  Plus there are many purely moral issues regarding the value of human life.  Could a vile government extend the practice to involuntary euthanasia, as did nazi Germany, to eliminate "undesirables?"  The matter is rather complicated and society had best proceed with caution - while respecting free choice of those who hold their own personal beliefs.


To study, study, study, and stop being lazy.


Common treatments include: analgesics such as aspirin or acetaminophen, as well as localised versions targeting the throat (often delivered in lozenge form), nasal decongestants which reduce the inflammation in the nasal passages by constricting local blood vessels, cough suppressants (which work to suppress the cough reflex of the brain or by diluting the mucus in the lungs), and first-generation anti-histamines such as brompheniramine, chlorpheniramine, and clemastine (which reduce mucus gland secretion and thus combat blocked/runny noses but also may make the user drowsy). Second generation anti-histamines do not have a useful effect on colds.\n\nA warm and humid environment and drinking lots of fluids, especially hot liquids, alleviate symptoms somewhat. Common home remedies include camomile or lemon tisanes and chicken soup (which probably work by soothing the irritated respiratory passages with their steam), nebulized medicinal mixtures, hot compresses, mustard plasters, hot toddies, licorice and echinacea. Although there have been scientific studies done on echinacea, its effectiveness has not been demonstrated. Eating very spicy food can help alleviate congestion, although it may also irritate the already-tender throat. Coffee, or its active component, caffeine, has also been shown to improve mood and mental performance during rhinovirus infection. Hot beer is also recommended, and though it probably does little to fight the infection directly, at least it can help to a good night of relaxed sleep. However, alcohol dehydrates the body which is counterproductive; also cold medicine (aspirin, acetaminophen, ibuprofen, etc) should never be taken along with alcohol.


What is sockets?What is the importance in Networking?

A socket represents a single connection between two network applications. These two applications nominally run on different computers, but sockets can also be used for interprocess communication on a single computer. Applications can create multiple sockets for communicating with each other. Sockets are bidirectional, meaning that either side of the connection is capable of both sending and receiving data.\n\nProgrammers often use sockets in network programming, albeit indirectly. Programming libraries like Winsock hide many of the low-level details of socket programming. Sockets have been in widespread use since the early 1980s.


what are raw materials used in porcelain ceramic floors industry ?

Porcelain is a hard ceramic material. It is fired at a higher temperature than that used to fire glazed earthenware and stoneware pottery. It is white or off-white in colour, translucent and can be decorated to provide additional colour. Porcelain is made by firing a mixture of materials including China clay and China stone in a kiln at temperatures in the region of 1200 to 1350 degrees Celsius. The resulting material is hard, strong, glassy and durable, but also brittle. The main components of porcelain, China clay (kaolinite) and crushed China stone (a form of feldspar) are found in nature and result from the weathering and decomposition of igneous rocks such as granite and basalt.\n\nClays used for the manufacture of porcelain can be specially formulated to provide high-strength and high-durability. It is also possible to blend clays to obtain a clay body that is ideal for throwing on a potter's wheel. A wide range of porcelain clays is readily available from many specialist suppliers of materials for ceramics.

Do I need to get my boss a holiday gift?

Is gall bladder surgery really necessary.?

Gall Bladder surgery IS a nessecary thing.  I had mine removed about 6 months ago, as a medical emergency.  My gall bladder contained over 100 stones, and was so full of bile, it almost killed me.  I didn't even think there was anything wrong with me.  One night I started throwing up violently, so I was taken to the ER.  After several tests, it was determined that I had Pancreatitis, caused by my overflowing, and inactive Gall Bladder.  Since I've had it out, I have felt great, and had NO complications.
