1,396,700	2Health	Why when i get a migrane type headache dose it feel like there is an icepick jabbed in the back of my head?	My whole boby is hot to the touch espicaly my face. However I feel chilled and coold all the time no matter how many blankets i use, then i am so hot that it feels like i am on fire. This last for about a week straight and then goes away for a while but the icepick headaches are constant. My lower back arond my kidneys hurts at the same time as the feavers. I also spit up bloody mucas when I have these fevers. I am a 23 year old male.	You can't be sure that it's a migraine. It could be a cluster headache, those are more common in men than women. They are very painful, knife-like as you say. \nDon't waste any time. See a doctor, who can prescribe you medicine that you need to be able to handle life.

I'd like to make a chart for the last 100 years or so about how the percentage of Americans investing has increased significantly over time. Do you know where I can find that kind of data?

1,396,707	6Business & Finance	can a debt collector continue to renew a debt, even after the statute of limitations have passed?	I had a auto repo'd about nine years ago and the collection company continues to renew the data twice a year with interest, is that legal, if so what are my options?\nI am from Texas and the statute of limitations there is 4 years.	You are referring to two differant issues.\n\nNegative items can only stay on your report for 7 years, beginning on the day of the delinquency.\n\nStatute of Limitations is the length of time a creditor can "legally" collect on a debt. That means until this day is up, they can sue you in court to collect. \n\nHowever, even after the Statute of Limitations is up, they can continue to TRY and collect the debt. But since they no longer have a legal way to collect, they are just wasting their time. All the can do is harrass you.\n\nThey can continue to place interest and late fees on the loan, if that is what the terms of the agreement said they can do.\n\nOk, all this said....when you say they are "renewing the data"....where? On your credit report? That would be illegal and you can easily sue them in court.\n\nIf I can be of further help email me.

1,396,717	1Science & Mathematics	whats the tallest building in the world?	and which state and city the is located at	Up until 1998 the tallest building status was essentially uncontested. Counting buildings as structures with floors throughout, New York City's World Trade Center was the tallest including the antennas, Sears Tower in Chicago excluding the antennas. As antennas were usually excluded, Sears Tower was counted as the tallest. When Petronas Twin Towers in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia was built, some felt that the "spire" extending to 9 meters higher than the roof of the Sears Tower was just added to "cheat" its way into the spot as tallest building. Excluding the spire, the Petronas Towers were not taller than the Sears Tower. Therefore, before the Petronas Towers were completed, the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat defined four categories in which the "world's tallest building" can be measured:\n\nHeight to the structural or architectural top (including spires and pinnacles, but not antennas, masts or flagpoles) \nHeight to the highest occupied floor \nHeight to the top of the roof \nHeight to the top of antenna \nThe height is measured from the sidewalk level of the main entrance. In all of these categories, Sears Tower had held the top spot. After Petronas was built, Sears Tower became second in the first category only.\n\nOn April 20, 2004, the Taipei 101 in Taipei, Taiwan was completed. Its completion gave it the record for the first three categories.\n\n The Sears Tower still leads in the fourth category with 527 m (1,729 ft
1,396,718	1Science & Mathematics	State a quantum phenomenon that uses quantum behaviour and state a microscopic object involved.?	details of apparatus required please, and what can be observed. The observations should be explained using quantum behaviour.	The famous Young's Double Slit Experiment with electrons.\n\nIf you shoot electrons through two thin small slits, they will exhibit an interference pattern like that of light on the screen. This means the electrons will only hit the screen where there would be a bright fringe, and they won't hit where there would be a dark fringe.\n\nThe quantum behavior is the electrons behaving like a way instead of a particle.\n\nThe explanation to this is quite amazing. According to the quantum theory, each electron goes through both slits at the same time, which is how it "knows" there are two slits. If you were to close one of the slits, the electrons would create an interference pattern on the screen that light would make with one slit. \n\nThen, if you open the second slit, the pattern changes back to that of a double slit experiment. Feynman developed what is known as the sum of histories to explain this. It says the electron takes every probable path on its way to through the slits to the screen, which is how it goes through both slits, and how it "knows" the interference pattern to create so to speak. \n\nThe cool thing is, every object obeys this sum of histories. Why don't cannon balls take every probably path when it is shot at an angle? The cannon ball will take the same parabolic path everytime. So, it seems this sum of histories doesn't work for large objects. The cool thing is it does!\n\nWhen you use the mathematics involved in the sum of histories, all paths cancel or drop to a zero probability except for the parabolic path the cannon ball takes. The reason: it is too large, and thus the quantum affects don't apply. But, when dealing with the very small, such as electrons, the all possible paths have a non-zero probability.

1,396,720	1Science & Mathematics	What is titanium and potasssium perchlorate?	i'm working on a research paper for my chemistry class	Titanium is a chemical element in the periodic table that has the symbol Ti and atomic number 22. It is a light, strong, lustrous, corrosion-resistant (including resistance to sea water and chlorine) transition metal with a white-silvery-metallic colour. Titanium is used in strong light-weight alloys (most notably with iron and aluminium) and its most common compound, titanium dioxide, is used in white pigments. Examples in which white pigment, consisting of titanium oxide, is used, are correction fluid and commonly used white paint to repaint walls. It is also used in toothpaste, white road marking paints and in white fireworks. Substances containing titanium are called titaniferous.\n\nThe element occurs in numerous minerals with the main sources being rutile and ilmenite, which are widely distributed over the Earth. There are two allotropic forms and five naturally occurring isotopes of this element; 46Ti through 50Ti with 48Ti being the most abundant (73.8%). One of titanium's most notable characteristics is that it is as strong as steel but is only 60% its density. Titanium's properties are chemically and physically similar to zirconium.\n\nPotassium perchlorate, chemical formula KClO4, is a strong oxidizer. It is a colorless, crystalline substance that melts at about 610 °C. It is one of the most common oxidizers used in fireworks, used variously in propellants, flash compositions, stars, and sparklers. It has been used as a solid rocket propellant, though it has mostly been replaced by the higher performance ammonium perchlorate.\n\nIt has a molar mass of 138.55 g/mol.

1,396,723	2Health	Are there any other alternatives out there othere than the pill, that does not have a bunch of hormones in the	have tried 3 different pills in the last year and the side effects were way to bad.	An alternate birth control method that does not use hormones is called the ParaGard IUD. Instead of hormones, ParaGard contains copper, which kills sperm. It provides protection for 10 years. ParaGard may lower your risk of developing, endometrial, ovarian, and cervical cancers, though experts aren't sure why. Also, ParaGard may be used if you're breast feeding or if you can't tolerate side effects from hormonal methods. The cost is $362.50 plus about $150 for insertion; covered by most insurance. If you're paying cash, that works out to $51.25 a year.

1,396,726	7Entertainment & Music	M. Night Shyamalan's next film, Lady in the Water, do you think it'll have a twisted ending?	Lady in the Water, Shyamalan's next project, is scheduled to open July 21, 2006. Heralded as Shyamalan's E.T., the film will star Bryce Dallas Howard, who also starred in The Village, and Paul Giamatti.\n\nCleveland Heep, a modest building manager, rescues a mysterious young woman from danger and discovers she is actually a narf--a character from a bedtime story who is trying to make the treacherous journey from our world back to hers. Cleveland and his fellow tenants start to realize that they are also characters in this bedtime story. As Cleveland falls deeper and deeper in love with the woman, he works together with the tenants to protect his new fragile friend from the deadly creatures that reside in this fable and are determined to prevent her from returning home. \n\nWill it be that the lady is not actually in the water? Yes. Yes it will.	Ofcourse it will have a twisted ending. They all do.
1,396,727	5Sports	Bases loaded the batter hits a fair ball and the defensive team mades 3 outs without touching the ball how ?		I am a big baseball fan and yes it can be done. A triple play is special when you get 3 outs on one play and is very rarely done. Even rarer is the unasisted triple play. Here are the conditions that usually take place for an unasisted triple play:\n\n- All triple plays must have 2 men on with nobody out.\n- Usually there are runners at 1st and 2nd\n- The batter hits a line drive to short or 2nd that looks like its going to be a base hit. 1 OUT!\nThe Runner at 2nd is going to third but has to tag 2nd after the fielder catches the ball but the Fielder touches 2nd. 2 OUTS!\n\n- The runner at first is usually near 2nd base when this happens and the fielder touches the runner before he can get back to first base. 3 OUTS! Unasisted by any other fielder! usually in a triple play the fielder at 2nd would throw back to 1st but that would not be an unasisted triple play.\n\nThere have been several "ordinary" triple plays in major league history, in fact 3 have been done this year alone. However, there have only been 12 unasisted triple plays ever even less than a perfect game (17 in modern big league history)\n\nBill Wambsganss had a famous unassisted triple play in the world series. The only triple play (and unasisted obviously) in the world series. Here is the link\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unassisted_triple_play\n\nAs to the original question, I doubt it could happen becuase if the batted ball hit a runner, odds are that it wouldn't hit another, let alone two and plus the fielders wouldn't just let the ball sit there while the runs score.
1,396,728	5Sports	Who are the best nation at the FIFA World Cup that are yet to win one?	I was thinking perhaps the Netherlands, who made the 1974 and 1978 finals, and the 1998 semi-final where they lost to Brazil on penalties. What do you all think? Who's the best "bridesmaid"?	Long before Holland, we have to consider Czechoslovakia(now the Czech republic), who lost the 1934 Finals to Italy and in 1962 to Brazil.\n\nBut it was the Mighty Magyars, perhaps as the best team never to have won it. They lost in 1938 to Italy, but in 1954, they were the best team in the world. However, the rain and Adi Dassler's (Founder of Adidas) boots, which the Germans changed to midway through at 0-2 down, to get a better grip, that helped them overcome the elements and eventually Hungary, to win 3-2.

1,396,733	0Society & Culture	When out in public, why do females go to the washroom in pairs?		Because the women who go in groups to the washroom are extremely social in outlook and don't want to miss a chance to chat and gossip and the others go along to make sure they're not the subject matter of that washroom chat-fest. The men for some reason always seem to think they're being talked about but that's their insecurity kicking in.\n\nIn actual fact, it's just to keep each other company.
1,396,734	2Health	what is the most efficient cardio workout to lose weight? Explain what equipment to use and why?		Because your body adapts to any exercise and thus makes it less effective in typically four weeks, there is no best way. However, I would recommend a program of two cardio endurance workouts and one or two hard muscle building workouts. The cardio work out would be one that you go at intervals of two minutes: Go at a rate that is diffucult but you can do for 2 minutes, then go at a moderate pace for two minutes. Two minutes is the level that aerobic (burning actual fat) begins and anerobic (carbohydrate, oxygen are main energy sources) end. Do this for 20-30 minutes as your health and endurace allows, then cool down for five minutes.\nThe muscle building work outs would be like a cross training thing where you work your glutes then quads then pectorals then back muscles in a cycle. Twenty to thrity minutes is sufficent, any more and you stop putting in the intensity required to get a good muscle stimulation.\nI recommend a muscle building regimine because although strength training doesn't really burn as many calories in the work out itself, it does raise your metabolism much more than cardio for the next 24 hours. Studies show increases from 25% to 62% depending on how long and hard the training is. Plus, each pound of muscle you put on burns more fat than no muscle at all and will give your more attractive lines in your body shape.

Until recently, Israel was the only democracy in the middle east and our only true friend there too. Now there are two other brand new -- and admittedly screwed up democracies. As long as we stay, the middle east will become more westernized and thus less violent, less oppressive and less inclined to be our enemies. Right now it's all very new and there is huge resentment. It will wear off in time though, and then we'll enjoy our accomplishments.\n\nDaniel\nTampa Web Designers\nhttp://www.ipowergrfx.com\nhttp://www.publicadjuster.com
1,396,749	9Politics & Government	What Marine units deployed from illinois during the vietnam war?		The first response is correct, Marines from the Ist, 2nd and 3rd (Okinawa) Marine divisions made up most of the infantry units in Nam. A few brigades were formed as well. Remember, during the Vietnam era, the US drew from its existing, active units. There was a draft during that time, and people were drafted on an as needed basis.\n\nToday, we draw from citizen soldier units which are not nearly as effective. There training is limited, their espree d corps is also limited as is their desire to even be there. This whole thing about a volunteer army is sheer nonsense. Ninety percent of these folks would have gotten out before 9/11, had they known then what they know today.

1,396,751	6Business & Finance	How to look up a lawsuit that was already settled?	Look up details on a lawsuit that has already been settled.	Depending on where the lawsuit was filed, there should be a court clerk's office in the county seat. That would be a good place to start. Some of this information can be searched for online by typing in "Blank" County Court into your browser. If you are lucky, you can search to find the case name and case number. So far, the resources to find the actual lawsuit papers online is quite limited. The best thing to do is to do a search online or at the court clerk's office, get the case name and case number, and ask to see the file. If the location of the Court is some distance from you, you can hire a process server to go to court and search for the records for you. Be forewarned, most clerks charge anywhere from fifty cents to three dollars a page per copy of these records. \n\nGood luck

1,396,754	2Health	Are there any heart or diabetes medicines that cause hair loss?	JUST STARTED VYTORIN 10-20 mg AND QUININE SULPHATE 260 MG ABOUT 3 MONTHS AGO. NOW WHEN COMBING HAIR I SEE LOTS AF HAIR FALLING OUT. NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM BEFORE AND HAVE A FULL HEAD OF HAIR	Neither of the two drugs you named have been associated with excessive hair loss according to webmd. I do caution however that Vytorin is a new drug (FDA approved 2004) and probably doesn't have enough track record to be 100% sure whether or not it causes hair loss. The other thing I wanted to mention is that Quinine Sulphate is an anti-malaria or leg cramp medication(as per webmd.com), and isn't indicated as far as I know for Diabetes. Diabetes is a very serious disease that can lead to blindness, limb amputation, heart disease, and other nasty conditions. I strongly urge you to see an Endochronologist who will be able to prescribe effective anti-diabetic medication.

It does not rely on any human will or channelling, etc, but simply on the omnipotence of a perfect God.

You have a few options here one bring a small sweater to cover up when it gets cold.

Also at macys and stuff the do sell nipple pads then keep them toasty no matter where you are \n (alot of professional iceskaters use them but it does cost $$).\nLastly let them hang out if someone looks or comments reply if it was not soooo cold i would not be able to cut glass. \n\nDid you ever think the guys have it so cold for a reason if your the only female?? \n\nBest of luck

I am the type that always had to learn life's lesson by doing and not by listening. I find good in everyone. I think everyone I meet has a story to tell, (like a book) and I am willing to listen. I am not famous, except to those who depend on me. I am not beautiful, except to those that get to know me. I am not rich, unless you can count the wonderful friendships I have with others. I believe in family, I don't believe in divorce, ( a lesson learned thru my journey in life). I am pro-life. I believe respect, means more than money. Love is more important than possessions, caring is as important as breathing, and happiness belongs to all, no exceptions. I don't envy others, I reveal in their success. Jealously in my book, is a motivational skill to work harder. I believe my rights stop, where someone else's rights begin. I know blood is thicker than water. My friends are the pillar of my heart. Family, although mine is all crazy and apples don't fall far from their trees, is top priority. When I feel like I am totally alone in this world, I know I have many life lines. I believe there is humor in everything. Laughter is mother nature's happy pill. I believe in Jehovah God. I am God fearing. I know no matter how off course I get, that thru prayer he will find me and set me straight. I am deep but love to walk in shallow waters. I don't know everything, and everyday I live I learn something new. This is a general discription of who I am. Just another person, a pebble on the beach, a drop of water in the ocean, but still unique enought to be the one and only "me".

It sounds like it would be helpful for you to learn more about schizophrenia to understand better what you could be getting yourself into by staying in the relationship. Trying to maintain a relationship with someone who is suffering from the symptoms of a serious mental illness is difficult, and you don't want to go into it with your eyes closed. There are a lot of great websites out there that talk about the symptoms of the illness. http://www.schizophrenia.com/ also has support forums for family members and friends of individuals with schizophrenia....those might be helpful for you. Another helpful thing may be to see a counselor on a short term basis yourself. A psychologist or LCSW should be able to talk with you about the illness and help you think about the pros and cons of getting deeper into the relationship. They can also help you explore your own reasons for starting this relationship and help you start thinking about whether or not it's a good choice for you. Best of luck to you!

1,396,779	6Business & Finance	anyone knows the corpoate strategy, mission, and vision statement of ikea?		VISION / MISSION\n\nAffordable solutions for better living:\n \nThe Ikea Vision is to create a better everyday life for the many people. They make this possible by offering a wide range of well-designed home furnishing products at prices so low that as many people as possible will be able to afford them.\n\nIkea's mission is to offer a wide range of home furnishing items of good design and function, excellent quality and durability, at prices so low that the majority of people can afford to buy them \n(IKEA 1994). The company targets the customer who is looking for value and is willing to do a little bit of work serving themselves, transporting the items home and assembling the furniture for a better price. The typical Ikea customer is young low to middle income family. \n\nSTRATEGIC DIRECTION\n\nIkea places great emphasis on Porters three generic strategies to improve its competitiveness in the international market place. In addition, Ikea has improved its value-chain by a co-operative focus on suppliers and customers. The firm emphasizes centralized control and standardization of the product mix (Magrath, 1990: 38). \n\nGLOBAL STRATEGY\n\nIn order to maintain cost leadership in the market, internal production efficiencies must be greater than that of competitors. Under Ikea's global strategy, suppliers are usually located in low-cost nations, with close proximity to raw-materials and reliable access to distribution channels. These suppliers produce highly standardized products intended for the global market, which size provides the firm with the opportunity take the advantage of economies of scale factors. Ikea's role is not only to globally integrate operations and centrally design products, but also to find an effective combination of low cost, standardization, technology, and quality. \n \nLow price but not at any price\n\nFor more than 60 years IKEA has been working on ways of creating low prices – purchasing as inexpensively as possible, building our own stores, flat-packing furniture for customers to put together themselves. \n\nBut our ambition doesn´t stop there. We also want the products we sell to be free from hazardous substances. And we don´t want the wood in bookcases, tables or other products in the store to come from areas where forests are being devastated.\n\nAll IKEA suppliers must follow certain fundamental rules.\nWorking conditions must be acceptable, child labour is not tolerated and suppliers must adopt a responsible attitude to the environment\n \nIKEA CODE OF CONDUCT\n \nIKEA believes that good working conditions and the protection of the outside environment at our suppliers is a prerequisite for doing good business. Our code of conduct, "The IKEA Way on Purchasing Home Furnishing Products" (IWAY), was introduced in 2000.\n \nIKEA responsibility\n\nIKEA wants its products to have the minimum possible impact on the environment. And for these products to be manufactured in a socially responsible manner

How do you messure the speed of light - in air or in vacuum - in order to properly be able to set up the formulas in the theory of relativity? And then if it is in air, how do you explain that different colors travels in different speeds?	the speed of light as we know it is based on the structure of the space around us but may actually vary in different parts of the universe. the age of our sun and the processes that it goes through determine the make-up of our region of space.\n\nother star systems at varying levels of development and size convert elements into heavier elements. heavy elements are unstable to us and decay but may be the norm around other systems, especially the ones that have gone nova and seed the space around it with this exotic material which eventually forms new stellar and planetary systems.\n\nread the link below and you will see that light is manipulated when it goes through exotic materials. therefore the speed of light is determined by our placement in the universe and how light reacts as it crosses the spacial material from it's source to our eyes.

But based on their deplorable performance against the US national team, today, I agree with you that the Italian national team should be ashamed of themselves. I've rarely seen so many dives, fouls and repeated acts of unsportsmanlike conduct. They were disgraceful and deserved to lose the match. But that referee -- quite literally the worst I've ever seen in all my years watching football/soccer -- personally guaranteed the US team could not win by handing out endless red cards (they had only nine players on the field for most of the 2nd half). That wanker bought into every cheap dive and faked injury the Italians foisted upon him. Just disgusting.\n\nAnyway, at least Team USA is still (barely) alive, contingent on their defeating Ghana and those Italian actors beating the Czechs on Thursday. Keep your fingers crossed!

You can't be sure that it's a migraine. It could be a cluster headache, those are more common in men than women. They are very painful, knife-like as you say. \nDon't waste any time. See a doctor, who can prescribe you medicine that you need to be able to handle life.

can a debt collector continue to renew a debt, even after the statute of limitations have passed?

I had a auto repo'd about nine years ago and the collection company continues to renew the data twice a year with interest, is that legal, if so what are my options?\nI am from Texas and the statute of limitations there is 4 years.

You are referring to two differant issues.\n\nNegative items can only stay on your report for 7 years, beginning on the day of the delinquency.\n\nStatute of Limitations is the length of time a creditor can "legally" collect on a debt. That means until this day is up, they can sue you in court to collect. \n\nHowever, even after the Statute of Limitations is up, they can continue to TRY and collect the debt. But since they no longer have a legal way to collect, they are just wasting their time. All the can do is harrass you.\n\nThey can continue to place interest and late fees on the loan, if that is what the terms of the agreement said they can do.\n\nOk, all this said....when you say they are "renewing the data"....where? On your credit report? That would be illegal and you can easily sue them in court.\n\nIf I can be of further help email me.

Whats better Foreplay or sex?

THIS IS A QUESTION FOR FUN, I wanna know the difference in what single ppl think and what married people think.. make sure you put whether you are married,single, divorced, or in a relationship in your answer... and feel free if you like to explain why... im curious to know what the differing opinions are and if it has anything to do with your status..

foreplay, if it is done well can be better than sex because of the anticipation, \nalthough with out knowing the sex is going to be great, I am not sure the great foreplay alone would not grow to be frustrating...\nMarried 17 yrs

whats the tallest building in the world?

and which state and city the is located at

Up until 1998 the tallest building status was essentially uncontested. Counting buildings as structures with floors throughout, New York City's World Trade Center was the tallest including the antennas, Sears Tower in Chicago excluding the antennas. As antennas were usually excluded, Sears Tower was counted as the tallest. When Petronas Twin Towers in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia was built, some felt that the "spire" extending to 9 meters higher than the roof of the Sears Tower was just added to "cheat" its way into the spot as tallest building. Excluding the spire, the Petronas Towers were not taller than the Sears Tower. Therefore, before the Petronas Towers were completed, the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat defined four categories in which the "world's tallest building" can be measured:\n\nHeight to the structural or architectural top (including spires and pinnacles, but not antennas, masts or flagpoles) \nHeight to the highest occupied floor \nHeight to the top of the roof \nHeight to the top of antenna \nThe height is measured from the sidewalk level of the main entrance. In all of these categories, Sears Tower had held the top spot. After Petronas was built, Sears Tower became second in the first category only.\n\nOn April 20, 2004, the Taipei 101 in Taipei, Taiwan was completed. Its completion gave it the record for the first three categories.\n\n The Sears Tower still leads in the fourth category with 527 m (1,729 ft

State a quantum phenomenon that uses quantum behaviour and state a microscopic object involved.?

details of apparatus required please, and what can be observed. The observations should be explained using quantum behaviour.

The famous Young's Double Slit Experiment with electrons.\n\nIf you shoot electrons through two thin small slits, they will exhibit an interference pattern like that of light on the screen. This means the electrons will only hit the screen where there would be a bright fringe, and they won't hit where there would be a dark fringe.\n\nThe quantum behavior is the electrons behaving like a way instead of a particle.\n\nThe explanation to this is quite amazing. According to the quantum theory, each electron goes through both slits at the same time, which is how it "knows" there are two slits. If you were to close one of the slits, the electrons would create an interference pattern on the screen that light would make with one slit. \n\nThen, if you open the second slit, the pattern changes back to that of a double slit experiment. Feynman developed what is known as the sum of histories to explain this. It says the electron takes every probable path on its way to through the slits to the screen, which is how it goes through both slits, and how it "knows" the interference pattern to create so to speak. \n\nThe cool thing is, every object obeys this sum of histories. Why don't cannon balls take every probably path when it is shot at an angle? The cannon ball will take the same parabolic path everytime. So, it seems this sum of histories doesn't work for large objects. The cool thing is it does!\n\nWhen you use the mathematics involved in the sum of histories, all paths cancel or drop to a zero probability except for the parabolic path the cannon ball takes. The reason: it is too large, and thus the quantum affects don't apply. But, when dealing with the very small, such as electrons, the all possible paths have a non-zero probability.

What is titanium and potasssium perchlorate?

i'm working on a research paper for my chemistry class

Titanium is a chemical element in the periodic table that has the symbol Ti and atomic number 22. It is a light, strong, lustrous, corrosion-resistant (including resistance to sea water and chlorine) transition metal with a white-silvery-metallic colour. Titanium is used in strong light-weight alloys (most notably with iron and aluminium) and its most common compound, titanium dioxide, is used in white pigments. Examples in which white pigment, consisting of titanium oxide, is used, are correction fluid and commonly used white paint to repaint walls. It is also used in toothpaste, white road marking paints and in white fireworks. Substances containing titanium are called titaniferous.\n\nThe element occurs in numerous minerals with the main sources being rutile and ilmenite, which are widely distributed over the Earth. There are two allotropic forms and five naturally occurring isotopes of this element; 46Ti through 50Ti with 48Ti being the most abundant (73.8%). One of titanium's most notable characteristics is that it is as strong as steel but is only 60% its density. Titanium's properties are chemically and physically similar to zirconium.\n\nPotassium perchlorate, chemical formula KClO4, is a strong oxidizer. It is a colorless, crystalline substance that melts at about 610 °C. It is one of the most common oxidizers used in fireworks, used variously in propellants, flash compositions, stars, and sparklers. It has been used as a solid rocket propellant, though it has mostly been replaced by the higher performance ammonium perchlorate.\n\nIt has a molar mass of 138.55 g/mol.

Are there any other alternatives out there othere than the pill, that does not have a bunch of hormones in the

have tried 3 different pills in the last year and the side effects were way to bad.

An alternate birth control method that does not use hormones is called the ParaGard IUD. Instead of hormones, ParaGard contains copper, which kills sperm. It provides protection for 10 years. ParaGard may lower your risk of developing, endometrial, ovarian, and cervical cancers, though experts aren't sure why. Also, ParaGard may be used if you're breast feeding or if you can't tolerate side effects from hormonal methods. The cost is $362.50 plus about $150 for insertion; covered by most insurance. If you're paying cash, that works out to $51.25 a year.

Lady in the Water, Shyamalan's next project, is scheduled to open July 21, 2006. Heralded as Shyamalan's E.T., the film will star Bryce Dallas Howard, who also starred in The Village, and Paul Giamatti.\n\nCleveland Heep, a modest building manager, rescues a mysterious young woman from danger and discovers she is actually a narf--a character from a bedtime story who is trying to make the treacherous journey from our world back to hers. Cleveland and his fellow tenants start to realize that they are also characters in this bedtime story. As Cleveland falls deeper and deeper in love with the woman, he works together with the tenants to protect his new fragile friend from the deadly creatures that reside in this fable and are determined to prevent her from returning home. \n\nWill it be that the lady is not actually in the water? Yes. Yes it will.

Ofcourse it will have a twisted ending. They all do.

Bases loaded the batter hits a fair ball and the defensive team mades 3 outs without touching the ball how ?

I am a big baseball fan and yes it can be done. A triple play is special when you get 3 outs on one play and is very rarely done. Even rarer is the unasisted triple play. Here are the conditions that usually take place for an unasisted triple play:\n\n- All triple plays must have 2 men on with nobody out.\n- Usually there are runners at 1st and 2nd\n- The batter hits a line drive to short or 2nd that looks like its going to be a base hit. 1 OUT!\nThe Runner at 2nd is going to third but has to tag 2nd after the fielder catches the ball but the Fielder touches 2nd. 2 OUTS!\n\n- The runner at first is usually near 2nd base when this happens and the fielder touches the runner before he can get back to first base. 3 OUTS! Unasisted by any other fielder! usually in a triple play the fielder at 2nd would throw back to 1st but that would not be an unasisted triple play.\n\nThere have been several "ordinary" triple plays in major league history, in fact 3 have been done this year alone. However, there have only been 12 unasisted triple plays ever even less than a perfect game (17 in modern big league history)\n\nBill Wambsganss had a famous unassisted triple play in the world series. The only triple play (and unasisted obviously) in the world series. Here is the link\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unassisted_triple_play\n\nAs to the original question, I doubt it could happen becuase if the batted ball hit a runner, odds are that it wouldn't hit another, let alone two and plus the fielders wouldn't just let the ball sit there while the runs score.

Who are the best nation at the FIFA World Cup that are yet to win one?

I was thinking perhaps the Netherlands, who made the 1974 and 1978 finals, and the 1998 semi-final where they lost to Brazil on penalties. What do you all think? Who's the best "bridesmaid"?

Long before Holland, we have to consider Czechoslovakia(now the Czech republic), who lost the 1934 Finals to Italy and in 1962 to Brazil.\n\nBut it was the Mighty Magyars, perhaps as the best team never to have won it. They lost in 1938 to Italy, but in 1954, they were the best team in the world. However, the rain and Adi Dassler's (Founder of Adidas) boots, which the Germans changed to midway through at 0-2 down, to get a better grip, that helped them overcome the elements and eventually Hungary, to win 3-2.

what is the most efficient cardio workout to lose weight? Explain what equipment to use and why?

Because your body adapts to any exercise and thus makes it less effective in typically four weeks, there is no best way. However, I would recommend a program of two cardio endurance workouts and one or two hard muscle building workouts. The cardio work out would be one that you go at intervals of two minutes: Go at a rate that is diffucult but you can do for 2 minutes, then go at a moderate pace for two minutes. Two minutes is the level that aerobic (burning actual fat) begins and anerobic (carbohydrate, oxygen are main energy sources) end. Do this for 20-30 minutes as your health and endurace allows, then cool down for five minutes.\nThe muscle building work outs would be like a cross training thing where you work your glutes then quads then pectorals then back muscles in a cycle. Twenty to thrity minutes is sufficent, any more and you stop putting in the intensity required to get a good muscle stimulation.\nI recommend a muscle building regimine because although strength training doesn't really burn as many calories in the work out itself, it does raise your metabolism much more than cardio for the next 24 hours. Studies show increases from 25% to 62% depending on how long and hard the training is. Plus, each pound of muscle you put on burns more fat than no muscle at all and will give your more attractive lines in your body shape.

How to look up a lawsuit that was already settled?

Look up details on a lawsuit that has already been settled.

Depending on where the lawsuit was filed, there should be a court clerk's office in the county seat. That would be a good place to start. Some of this information can be searched for online by typing in "Blank" County Court into your browser. If you are lucky, you can search to find the case name and case number. So far, the resources to find the actual lawsuit papers online is quite limited. The best thing to do is to do a search online or at the court clerk's office, get the case name and case number, and ask to see the file. If the location of the Court is some distance from you, you can hire a process server to go to court and search for the records for you. Be forewarned, most clerks charge anywhere from fifty cents to three dollars a page per copy of these records. \n\nGood luck

JUST STARTED VYTORIN 10-20 mg AND QUININE SULPHATE 260 MG ABOUT 3 MONTHS AGO. NOW WHEN COMBING HAIR I SEE LOTS AF HAIR FALLING OUT. NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM BEFORE AND HAVE A FULL HEAD OF HAIR

Neither of the two drugs you named have been associated with excessive hair loss according to webmd. I do caution however that Vytorin is a new drug (FDA approved 2004) and probably doesn't have enough track record to be 100% sure whether or not it causes hair loss. The other thing I wanted to mention is that Quinine Sulphate is an anti-malaria or leg cramp medication(as per webmd.com), and isn't indicated as far as I know for Diabetes. Diabetes is a very serious disease that can lead to blindness, limb amputation, heart disease, and other nasty conditions. I strongly urge you to see an Endochronologist who will be able to prescribe effective anti-diabetic medication.

Why is Glen McGrath always overlooked when great cricketers are discussed!?

Consistently the best line and legnth bowler in the world, an improving batsman and impressive test bowling average; is Glen just not Glam enough?

I don't think he is, especially not in Australia, where he is certainly considered to be a modern great. He has been the spearhead of our attack for the best part of the last 10 years, since the likes of Hughes & McDermott retired. He has awesome statistics, 542 wickets at 21.55 in tests, and 331 at 22.43 in ODI, which places him third on the all time wicket taking list for tests, and 6th for ODI, and even considering the greater number of matches played these days, still makes him one of the best bowlers of all time.\nWithout a doubt, Glen McGrath WILL be remembered as a great....

Do any women have this problem at work?

I work with a bunch of guys, and for the last couple of days they have kept it extreamly cold in the office. So this makes my nipples hard. (the cold air) So tomorrow I will have to wear a padded bra or something. Because every time a guy walks by I have to cross my arms over my breast, or just hope they don't notice my nipples poking out.

You have a few options here one bring a small sweater to cover up when it gets cold. If you have an ac vent over your desk ask one of the guys to close the vent over ( so you dont get a cold or something) when they ask why. Also at macys and stuff the do sell nipple pads then keep them toasty no matter where you are \n (alot of professional iceskaters use them but it does cost $$).\nLastly let them hang out if someone looks or comments reply if it was not soooo cold i would not be able to cut glass. \n\nDid you ever think the guys have it so cold for a reason if your the only female?? \n\nBest of luck

who are u?

I am a woman, a wife, a mother, a sister, a daughter, and a friend that has seen her share of ups and downs. I am the type that always had to learn life's lesson by doing and not by listening. I find good in everyone. I think everyone I meet has a story to tell, (like a book) and I am willing to listen. I am not famous, except to those who depend on me. I am not beautiful, except to those that get to know me. I am not rich, unless you can count the wonderful friendships I have with others. I believe in family, I don't believe in divorce, ( a lesson learned thru my journey in life). I am pro-life. I believe respect, means more than money. Love is more important than possessions, caring is as important as breathing, and happiness belongs to all, no exceptions. I don't envy others, I reveal in their success. Jealously in my book, is a motivational skill to work harder. I believe my rights stop, where someone else's rights begin. I know blood is thicker than water. My friends are the pillar of my heart. Family, although mine is all crazy and apples don't fall far from their trees, is top priority. When I feel like I am totally alone in this world, I know I have many life lines. I believe there is humor in everything. Laughter is mother nature's happy pill. I believe in Jehovah God. I am God fearing. I know no matter how off course I get, that thru prayer he will find me and set me straight. I am deep but love to walk in shallow waters. I don't know everything, and everyday I live I learn something new. This is a general discription of who I am. Just another person, a pebble on the beach, a drop of water in the ocean, but still unique enought to be the one and only "me".

I am in "like" with a paranoid schizophrenic...any help???

I really like my boyfriend...but I am afraid that we will have problems stemming from this...I need help...I really like him and all but I am afraid of the affects of the disease....

It sounds like it would be helpful for you to learn more about schizophrenia to understand better what you could be getting yourself into by staying in the relationship. Trying to maintain a relationship with someone who is suffering from the symptoms of a serious mental illness is difficult, and you don't want to go into it with your eyes closed. There are a lot of great websites out there that talk about the symptoms of the illness. http://www.schizophrenia.com/ also has support forums for family members and friends of individuals with schizophrenia....those might be helpful for you. Another helpful thing may be to see a counselor on a short term basis yourself. A psychologist or LCSW should be able to talk with you about the illness and help you think about the pros and cons of getting deeper into the relationship. They can also help you explore your own reasons for starting this relationship and help you start thinking about whether or not it's a good choice for you. Best of luck to you!

Northerners weren't gung-ho about going to war and especially about being drafted. In New York City, a riot of draft resisters broke out at Tompkins Square Park in Manhattan. Bloody mess. Also most northerners didn't know how to use firearms because they never hunted for wild game. It was new to them. Also the North couldn't find a military leader. They changed them like shirts until U.S. Grant took over. To get soliders the north recruited from Ireland and Germany.

Is nuclear power unavoidable?

With fossil fuels running out over the next 100 years or so, and the energy we require from renewable sources not sufficient enough to keep the country going, is nuclear the only alternative?

One of the realities of the energy debate is that it really does take a portfolio of technologies. Nuclear clearly has a part to play, as does wind, solar and other renewables. Coal certainly isn't going away anytime soon either. \nThere simply aren't enough resources to cost effectively build just one kind of power generation plant for all the world's needs.\nthe National Renewable Energy Laboratory has some great discussions about this if you're interested enough to find them.

anyone knows the corpoate strategy, mission, and vision statement of ikea?

VISION / MISSION\n\nAffordable solutions for better living:\n \nThe Ikea Vision is to create a better everyday life for the many people. They make this possible by offering a wide range of well-designed home furnishing products at prices so low that as many people as possible will be able to afford them.\n\nIkea's mission is to offer a wide range of home furnishing items of good design and function, excellent quality and durability, at prices so low that the majority of people can afford to buy them \n(IKEA 1994). The company targets the customer who is looking for value and is willing to do a little bit of work serving themselves, transporting the items home and assembling the furniture for a better price. The typical Ikea customer is young low to middle income family. \n\nSTRATEGIC DIRECTION\n\nIkea places great emphasis on Porters three generic strategies to improve its competitiveness in the international market place. In addition, Ikea has improved its value-chain by a co-operative focus on suppliers and customers. The firm emphasizes centralized control and standardization of the product mix (Magrath, 1990: 38). \n\nGLOBAL STRATEGY\n\nIn order to maintain cost leadership in the market, internal production efficiencies must be greater than that of competitors. Under Ikea's global strategy, suppliers are usually located in low-cost nations, with close proximity to raw-materials and reliable access to distribution channels. These suppliers produce highly standardized products intended for the global market, which size provides the firm with the opportunity take the advantage of economies of scale factors. Ikea's role is not only to globally integrate operations and centrally design products, but also to find an effective combination of low cost, standardization, technology, and quality. \n \nLow price but not at any price\n\nFor more than 60 years IKEA has been working on ways of creating low prices – purchasing as inexpensively as possible, building our own stores, flat-packing furniture for customers to put together themselves. \n\nBut our ambition doesn´t stop there. We also want the products we sell to be free from hazardous substances. And we don´t want the wood in bookcases, tables or other products in the store to come from areas where forests are being devastated.\n\nAll IKEA suppliers must follow certain fundamental rules.\nWorking conditions must be acceptable, child labour is not tolerated and suppliers must adopt a responsible attitude to the environment\n \nIKEA CODE OF CONDUCT\n \nIKEA believes that good working conditions and the protection of the outside environment at our suppliers is a prerequisite for doing good business. Our code of conduct, "The IKEA Way on Purchasing Home Furnishing Products" (IWAY), was introduced in 2000.\n \nIKEA responsibility\n\nIKEA wants its products to have the minimum possible impact on the environment. And for these products to be manufactured in a socially responsible manner

Does the theory of relativity depend on the speed of light in vacuum or in air?

How do you messure the speed of light - in air or in vacuum - in order to properly be able to set up the formulas in the theory of relativity? And then if it is in air, how do you explain that different colors travels in different speeds?

the speed of light as we know it is based on the structure of the space around us but may actually vary in different parts of the universe. the age of our sun and the processes that it goes through determine the make-up of our region of space.\n\nother star systems at varying levels of development and size convert elements into heavier elements. heavy elements are unstable to us and decay but may be the norm around other systems, especially the ones that have gone nova and seed the space around it with this exotic material which eventually forms new stellar and planetary systems.\n\nread the link below and you will see that light is manipulated when it goes through exotic materials. therefore the speed of light is determined by our placement in the universe and how light reacts as it crosses the spacial material from it's source to our eyes.

The Gospels mention Money and being just to the poor and needy more than any other moral obligation. Sex and sexuality is mentioned few times. Does this mean that tending to the poor is more imprtant than sexual purity?

Nope. \n\nGod is a perfect God and Judge. With our imperfect eyes it is very difficult to see this concept. \n\nSome people think some acts are sin and others think that those same acts are not. Well, it doesn't matter what we think--we don't get to vote on it.\n\nSome people don't think homosexuality is a sin. Some people don't think lying is a sin. Some people don't think theft is a sin. \n\nEven John Dillinger saw himself as a simple man, doing only what he could do. Al Capone saw himself as a public servant and man of the people. And I am quite sure that the guys who flew the planes into the World Trade Center were convinced that what they were doing was right.\n\nIt's not about what _we_ think is right and wrong, and it's not about what _we_ think is better or worse or not so bad.\n\nIt's about what God, the Supreme Judge, has told us.

who here thinks that the italian national team should be kicked out of FIFA?

they dived they fowelled and they just plain played horrible soccer. i think that the italians should be kicked out and not let back in until the clean up their game.

Well, I wouldn't take it quite that far. But based on their deplorable performance against the US national team, today, I agree with you that the Italian national team should be ashamed of themselves. I've rarely seen so many dives, fouls and repeated acts of unsportsmanlike conduct. They were disgraceful and deserved to lose the match. But that referee -- quite literally the worst I've ever seen in all my years watching football/soccer -- personally guaranteed the US team could not win by handing out endless red cards (they had only nine players on the field for most of the 2nd half). That wanker bought into every cheap dive and faked injury the Italians foisted upon him. Just disgusting.\n\nAnyway, at least Team USA is still (barely) alive, contingent on their defeating Ghana and those Italian actors beating the Czechs on Thursday. Keep your fingers crossed!
