Can anyone tell me what the different flavours of UNIX are(at least 6) and their difference???
|
I'm not the one to answer this, but it looks like you're not getting an answer from the experts. Unix was developed in the university setting, where students would add features that struck their fancy. Several vendors have selected what they consider the "best" combination of features and marketed them. An example is Xenix. I haven't stayed real current, so I can't tell you what the popular versions are these days, but there are almost as many versions as there are people. Unix is structured as a core capability which can be easily extended. Some extensions are as simple as a series of commands tagged together, others are as complex as word processors and telecommunication capabilities. The strength of Unix, that it is very easy to add features, makes it very hard to limit it to a single universal definition. (Sort of the opposite approach to the one Apple has taken.) Hope this helps.

How hard is it to sue a former landlord for damages, when you were always on time w/rent?
|
A friend of mine has paid her rent on time every month. She has just bought a house, and given them proper notice to break the lease 2 months early. This apartment building has made her and her family go with out water for 3 weeks, never fixed a mold problem, never replaced an oven with a crack in it-that rusted through, amongst other things... Now they are giving her a hard time with paying extra penalties....besides the penalties for breaking the lease two months earlier\n\nShe has proof and witnesses on these living conditions that she was forced to live under, but doesn't know what her rights are... \n\nShe is a good person that's works hard for her money and I hate seeing her get screwed by these corporate slugs.. What can she do?\n\nIf you prefer to email me.. feel free to IM me through my blog

Check with state attourney general for a statement of what a tenant's rights are for. She will probably be able to take him to small claims court and win.

How would you make a baseball game an interesting date for a woman who hates sports ?
|
You've done the chick flicks, shown up on time and complimented her. It's your turn to pick the date. You wanna do something you like, you've even done the movie Brokeback Mountain for her sake. It's the guys turn how do you make a baseball game between the New York Yankees and Boston Red Socks interesting. Your at home this isn't a staduim game. It's you her and the game. What do you do ? You've sat through the "I just don't know you speech" how do you make her at least enjoy the game or date ?
|
Hmmmmm.......not at the stadium? That's different. I had my baseball cap on and my foam finger in hand and my baseball glove in the other. I was soooooo ready for a day at Fenway! But at home we could still have fun. Be sure to write out for her all of the players......who is who. And talk her though the game. Share your enthusiasm with her. Your delight will be contagious. If she sees how excited you are by the game, she is sure to catch on will equal enthusiasm. I have no doubt that you both could enjoy this date more than anything you've ever done. (*cough* as long as you are for the Red Sox that is *wink*) Good luck!

describe your spirituality.?
|
I believe in Jesus Christ. I'm a Catholic. I'm more of a moderate. I do have traditional views on things, but I'm not gonna TELL people what to do. But I'll try to guide them as best I can. I believe the father, son, and the holy spirit are/is my father, and my friend. I think if I try to live a good Christian life, that others will see that and WANT to follow me. I don't like being told what to do, and I don't really like telling others what to do, but I will tell them what I think(or know), what they should do, and I do believe that I'm guided by God most of the time. He is my Savior, and I do believe that God will give u what u want as u need it, and that he won't give u problems u can't handle. If he does, I just tell him I'm about to give up on life, and something usually comes to me...sent by him...a friend calls, I see something soothing on tv, I read the Bible, and the scripture TOTALLY relates. etc. Footprints is awesome!

|
Sodium Hypochlorite can exist at any pH that is on the "basic" side of neutral. Having said that, most commercial sodium hypochlorite solution (read "Liquid Pool Chlorine") is stabilised by the addition of sodium hydroxide and so has a pH between 11 and 12.

What are the legalities/Y! rules involved in parodying portions of other Y! member's 360 pages?
|
I recently copied & then changed (sent the text thru a 'ebonics' translator) someone's (Y! ID: worlds_of_thomas_lance) blog entry & made it my blog entry. The entry was a story, the Y! member is a writer & the story was preceeded with a warning not to infringe the his copyright. It's obvious parody & was not even meant to be 'mean spirited', just funny in a stupid way. I even left a message on their 360 page directing them to my 360. People got bent outta shape about it so I'm asking...Did I break the law? Did I violate Y! rules? (haven't really checked those out to be honest) How thin skinned can people be?

When will the next series of "The Lost World" be aired? I want season 4!!! When will I get it??
|
I actually live in Romania, and the tv show ai 3 years old: on some channels you can watch re-runs, but no more than season 3. i searched te net, a lot, and all I got was that they didn't have enough funds to start filming season 4. But some sites said that it will come...soon. When will that be, exactly???? Is it the end of "The Lost World"? And if season 4 will start filming, when will I be able to see it?

This show was cancelled at the end of its third season. The last episode was originally shown in May of 2002. It is unlikely that they would make any more episodes. You can get information on The Lost World and other American TV programs on tv.com. Here is a link to The Lost World's page : \nhttp://www.tv.com/lost-world/show/897/summary.html

You need to lift heavier loads which means you'll not get much reps out of it, but it will help you bulk up.\n\nLighter load w/ high reps makes the cuts and definition for muscles.

Isn't it true that the reason God could and does know everything is because he has planned everything?
|
He could not know anything he has not planned for it would not exists. How could it exists if God has not planned it? Nothing can exists without God. Plans do not come into being apart from a planner, namely God. Therefore His knowledge of all is based upon his planning of all. Like a builder and his plan for a building. he knows al about it because he has it in his plans.
|
If you believe God exists then you have accept that He knows everything and therefore everything is His divine plan. This means that Hitler was His divine plan, cancer is part of His plan, and people who are born disabled are all part of His plan.

how is it at middle school?
|
Well the "cool" group forms and so does the "dorks" and so on. People start caring about what your wearing, if youve hit puberty, boyfriends/girlfriends, if your "cool" etc. When your in elementary school there really are no groups, everyone just has fun together. But things are going to start to change. But dont worry, it doesnt last forever. Just be yourself and youll atract the right people for you. This continues on through a few years of high school but once you get in college no one cares anymore. You get excepted for who you are as a person again. Just have fun, play sports, study. It goes by so fast. Really you probably will not hang out with most the people you did in middle school to high school. Same goes from high school to college. I am a Senior in college and I only talk to about 6 people from my high school and like 1 or 2 from middle school. Dont ever get to caught up in being sad or disapointed, it will pass soon enough.

How can I remove lead from IC pins to make the IC RoHS compatible?
|
I'm taking your question literally: the lead (Pb) is on leads of a dual in-line package IC for through-hole applications, and the quantity of Pb is just the amount used for 'tinning' to promote solderability, and these are not surface mount packages.\n\nAlso, I'm assuming that:\nYou've confirmed the law applies to you (this is not networking equipment).\nYou've applied for and don't qualify under one of the exemptions.\nYou're shipping TO the EC countries.\nThese aren't cheap 'jelly-bean' devices you can just throw away.\nThey are plastic rather than ceramic packages.\n\nThere are three ways to remove the lead:\n1) Mechanically,\n2) Chemically (with acid),\n3) Solubility.\n\n1) Mechanical removal is usually not practical because of static electricity considerations, and, you can't get to all sides of the device. It should be mentioned, however, the IC leads probably could withstand bending out flat (like gull-wings) so that you could get access to both sides, and use mechanical-abrasive methods to remove the lead (electronic grade baking soda abrasive blasting techniques for example, or residue-free CO2 ice blasting, mechanical sanding, etc.). Depends on the static sensitivity of your device and especially how you 'ground' the device in a custom-built enclosed fixture to eliminate static damage. Is labor-intensive, but doable to salvage an expensive device - suitable for low volumes - can be subcontracted to local shops for 'rework', but you'll have to spend time confirming that the ***very strict*** anti-static measures are implemented and adhered to on the shop floor. I don't think any post-rework electronic testing is really going to catch static damaged parts (some will only be 'wounded' and will fail prematurely - short-term testing won't find this), so your only recourse is to avoid damage in the first place. Bead-blast residues are relatively small and inexpensive to capture and dispose of.\n\n2) Chemical methods would take advantage of the solubility of lead in certain liquids at room temperature (i.e, acids). FUNDAMENTAL PROBLEM: aqueous-based solvents WILL be absorbed into the plastic. Further, acidic ions will remain trapped in the crevices by capillary action and migrate over time by diffusion directly into through plastic to the electronic device where corrosion could occur. So the requirements for dissolution by acid are: Acids that would eventually cause device failure are excluded (this eliminates HCL due to chloride migration to the wirebonds and subsequent corrosion), acids that are difficult to rinse are excluded (sulfuric acid is notoriously difficult to rinse). Further, it would only make sense to encapsulate the epoxy IC package in a protective covering to isolate the acid from the plastic packaging in the first place (thus tooling and extra labor expense is involved). Acetic acid is a weak organic acid that *might* be usable, in that its diffusion through plastic is lower due to the larger molecule size compared to HCl. You'd have to check acetic acid against solubility of lead vs. its compatibility with gold, silicon, aluminum, copper, epoxy used in IC manufacturing. THEN you'd need to 'tin' the leads with some other metal (another expense). After rinsing, the plastic packages would need to be 'baked' to drive off the moisture (and hopefully acetic acid residues if baking temp is above boiling point of acetic acid) - this must be done in a oven specially designed for removing humidity with a rechargable dessicant (an ordinary oven won't get the dew-point low enough; you need -80°F dew point or thereabouts), and you'd need to confirm by laboratory methods the acetic acid was gone. Acetic acid is so slow acting that I don't think you'd want to wait around for it to work (time is money), but whatever the candidate acid, it would be one that you could remove the t

Can a grass court alone produce a perfect tennis player.?
|
The Perfect Tennis Player would play in and win every tournament they entered. They would have to be good on clay, hardcourt, and grass. Oh yeah, there is no such thing as a perfect tennis player.\n\nTechnically two surfaces can make a great player. Sampras was great on grass and hardcourt, but was horrific on clay. The best type of tennis player is an all around tennis player like Roger Federer. That is why he is so superior to guys like Andy Roddick, who can only contend on hardcourt and grass.

I pee every 5 to 7 mins whats wrong?
|
Does it burn when you pee? Do you pee very small amounts? Does it feel like you have to, but when you do go you hardly pee at all?\n\nThat sounds like a urinary tract infection. It happens if you're new at intercourse, haven't had intercourse in a while, or have used a product in your genital area that doesn't agree with you, like a bubble bath or soap product.\n\nIf this is the case, you'll need to get medical attention - go to the doctor and get checked out. Most likely you'll get a cycle of antibiotics.

Does Medicare Reimburse Laboratory Fees?
|
Yes and no. Medicare deems some tests as experimental and does not cover them. They also can deny charges for tests that are not medically necessary or limited frequency. Limited frequency tests can be denied if you have had a particular test performed more than X time with in X months. Pap smears and PSA tests are a good example. Medicare only allows 1 per year. I know of at least one lab that notifies you in advance if there is a possibility of one or more tests (ordered by your MD) that may not be paid by Medicare. At that point you have the option to proceed with the testing or chose not to those particular tests performed.

how does one get to win the noble price?who are the people to notice you/discover you/vote for you?
|
You have to have contributed something substantial to the world of economics, literature, politics, science or some field of endeavor which makes you famous. Like Martin Luther King, Jr. who won the Nobel Peace Prize. \n\nThe Nobel Peace Prize was the first award given out at the beginning of the 20th century. It was given out by the trust of a guy named Alfred Nobel who was a Swedish guy who invented dynamite. \n\nIn his later years, he lamented that although dynamite did a lot of good for the world, it was also harmful and was used to harm people also. So the story goes that his Peace Prize was supposed to recognize and endow people who worked for Peace. \n\nPeople who contribute to science, economics, literature, the advancement of developing Third World economies, all have an impact on the world and attract the attention of people who decide who gets a particular Nobel Prize.

You christians? Have you slain your familly as Jesus ordered? If not , Kill them now.?
|
Jesus says, “Don’t imagine that I came to bring peace on earth! No, rather a sword lf you love your father, mother, sister, brother, more than me, you are not worthy of being mine. “The real beauty of this verse is that Jesus demands people truly love him more then they love their own family. I ask you how can we love someone that we can not see or interact with? Love is an emotion pertaining to physical existence not to faithful ideologies, yet God threatens you with Death just because your love for your mother maybe stronger than your love for him. Matthew 10:34

Why is there so much intolerance for Christianity?
|
You would think that we were the KKK or something. The rediculous answers that I read tend to show a generally severe lack of knowledge of the Bible's teachings. I believe that before someone criticizes they should first try to understand what it is that they are criticizing. Is it that the Bibles teachings offer a way to live a decent life and that's not what you want? Do you hate the idea of trying to understand? What are you trying to save me from with your comments anyway?

Sorry but some people don't have a clue.\nif you can't boot do last known good, then reboot again and instead of last known good, select safe mode with networking (this also installs the drivers for your CD drive, safe mode on it's own does not support CDs.\nonce you are able to sign in normally. in windows select start, and scroll around untill you find "system restore" now select from the options a restore point prior to the time the error occured.\nonce you have restored your PC in this fashion, insert your original microsoft XP CD now brows around the cd untill you find the backup utility (this is a little known hidden utility supplied with XP) that once installed will enable you to back up your PC in Full in case of a virus ort hardware failure wiping out your system. you are best advised to back up to en external hard drive and or a set of DVD's once your system is at a basic level of usability (o/s installed, all your frequently used hardware and software installed including your anti virus and firewall utilities are fully installed and before you get online properly)\nOnly once you have installed all your software and run a complete virus scan should you consider making a backup of your hard drive.\nonce a week or everytime you have upgraded software installed anti-malware updates make a new backup set only after you have installed the updates and your system successfully boots.

Is there any that you can lower the amount of sorness that you get after you work out?
|
other doing streches and taking vitamins e
|
Drink lots of water and never work out the same muscles 2 days in a row. The reason for the soreness is because when you work out your muscle fibers tear and the anabolic metabolism produces lactic acid. The acid that builds in your muscles is what causes the soreness. Working out the same muscles 2 days in a row gives your muscle no time to heal and only produces more lactic acid and, thus, more soreness. Also, drinking water will help to flush out the lactic acid and lessen some of the soreness.

what is gun blooming?
|
I think you meant gun blueing. Blueing is a finish applied to firearms to protect the metal from rust and corrosion. Ironically, the blueing process itself is chemically similar to oxidization, or rusting, and it provides a stable oxidized surface that can't be messed with! Blueing leaves a dark blue or blue-black finish on the metal surface. Traditionally, blueing is a chemically messy process that you need a hot solution for, but you can get over the counter cold blueing kits and do it yourself at home with decent results. Beware, that no matter what the finish, any metal surface will eventually corrode or rust if not properly cared for.

Why do clouds turn gray before it rains?
|
Clouds are made up of tiny water droplets or ice crystals, usually a mixture of both. The water and ice scatter all light, making clouds appear white. If the clouds get thick enough or high enough all the light above does not make it through, hence the gray or dark look. Also, if there are lots of other clouds around, their shadow can add to the gray or multicolored gray appearance.

Just curious about how this came about and why it means what it does. Makes no sense to me.

"Three sheets to the wind" is indeed a term for drunkenness that is derived from a sailing term. But the "sheets" in question are not the sails, but the lines (ropes).\n\nThe "sheet" is the line that controls the sails on a ship. If the line is not secured, the sail flops in the wind, and the ship loses headway and control. If all three sails are loose, the ship is out of control.

First u have to get plenty of fiber and stop pushing or forcing. Second, you have to soak in baths, as warm as you can stand it, for about 15 minutes, exposing the "affected" area to the warm water. Do this 3 times a day. Third, you have to keep moist and lubricated, use wet wipes and insert lubricants after evacuating. 'Roids start out as varicose veins in the rectum but can develop blood clots, at which point surgery is usually indicated.

If you've been together for 5 months, it hardly qualifies as a one-night stand. If you're ready to have a sexual relationship with him, just be sure you've thought about all the possible consequences, such as pregnancy or STDs, and make sure you're protected. You don't mention your age... and you haven't mentioned whether this will be your first time. If it is, you should really think about whether you're ready to take that step. Only you can decide, and don't let him pressure you into it if you decide you're not ready.

How can I let this thing not get ahead of me?
|
I was going out with an old classmate we had a renuion after 10 years and we started dating. The thing is that we broke up in August of 2005, which was understabdable because we lived so far apart, and this and that. Only his mother and some other people talked to him and I guess you could say it got the best of him. Anyway, when we broke up I can never stop thinking about him because he is someone that I don't think I could ever find again. Well... anyway just recently I found out that he is dating someone else..... I know I should accept the way things happened.... but I feel so hurt that I feel that if I do I will loose for what I have inside.... but never on the outside because we are friends forever. I just don't know how to handle this.
|
YOUR BREAK UP SHOULD HAVE NOT BEEN CAUSED BY DISTANCE BECAUSE TRUE LOVE KNOWS NO DISTANCE AND FEARS. NOW, POSSIBLY, HE HAS OVERCOME THE HURTING CAUSED BY YOUR SEPARATION THAT HE ALREADY HAS SET HIS EMOTION FOR SOMEONE ELSE.\n\nTHE FACT THAT YOU SAID IT WOULD BE DIFFICULT FOR YOU TO GET OVER HIM IS SOMETHING THAT YOU HAVE TO RECONSIDER. IF HE REALLY LOVED YOU, OR IS STILL IN LOVE WITH YOU, I DON'T SEE ANY REASON WHY HE SHOULD DATE ANOTHER GIRL. THAT MAKES ME BELIEVE THAT HE IS NO LONGER INTERESTED TO GET YOU BACK AND YOU HAVE TO ACCEPT THAT GRACEFULLY.\n\nOUT THERE, THERE ARE LOTS OF MEN WHO MAY HAVE GREATER ABILITIES AND CHARACTERISTICS THAN WHAT YOUR EX HAS RIGHT NOW. OUT THERE, THERE MAY BE SOMEONE JUST WAITING FOR YOU TO NOTICE HIM AND GIVE HIM THE CHANCE TO SHOW YOU THAT HE IS WORTHY OF YOUR LOVE. \n\nREMEMBER THAT IF YOU AND YOUR EX ARE DESTINED FOR EACH OTHER, DESTINY WILL HAVE NO OTHER WAY BUT TO SEE TO IT THAT YOU WILL BE BACK IN EACH OTHER'S ARMS NO MATTER HOW LONG IT TAKES. LET DESTINY DECIDE WHAT IS BEST FOR YOU. SMILE!
