5,008	3Education & Reference	Why should the subjects Literature and Grammar be merged?	If you are in a school where Literature and Grammar are two subjects... couldn't they be considered as one?	No. Literature is the study of written art, in the form of novels, stories, or poetry. Grammar is the study of language, in the form of sentence structure, word selection, and written composition. Grammar is an aspect of literature study, since proper grammar and grammatical choices can offer insight to literature. Grammar, however, is applicable to more than just literature, and is funamental to a proper understanding of language even in everyday discussions or quick e-mails. Grammar should be taught and mastered before literature is carefully examined. Grammar applies to a broader array of fields; literature os a more narrow and advanced topic.

5,016	6Business & Finance	why is the sky blue?		A clear cloudless day-time sky is blue because molecules in the air scatter blue light from the sun more than they scatter red light. When we look towards the sun at sunset, we see red and orange colours because the blue light has been scattered out and away from the line of sight.

5,019	6Business & Finance	Why does everyone appear to argue about the answer on this thing?	As soon as the asker selects best answer then at least one person (I'm betting another answerer) gives it the thumbs down. How about not letting them give something a thumbs up or down.	Hadn't noticed nor do I care, people are people and I have not seen any arguements over the best answer picked. Some people may simply think it was not the best answer and give it a thumbs down due to that. All that matters here is the asker was satisfied.
5,020	4Computers & Internet	Now that Autodesk bought out Alias, will 3DSMax and Maya become one software package?		Not for at least one more version of each package. At first they're just planning to make each program more friendly to the other's file formats. That's what they said in their press release.\n\nHowever, in my opinion they can't go on for long with two programs that have so much overlap in functionality. Unless they intentionally cripple or limit one or both they're wasting money having two redundant R&D paths.\n\nWhich brings me to my last point - Maya will likely benefit most in the coming version(s) from the much larger budget for their development than they had with Alias as it's own tiny company (compared to Discreet/Autodesk)
5,021	6Business & Finance	what does "pen is mightier than the sword" mean?		I believe it to mean that if you kill someone (with a sword)they die, that's it.

5,023	5Sports	What is the best place to stay in kirkwood?	Any recommendation on places on the resorts and/or places that are around 15-20 miles...\nWhat is the best place for a family (10 peoples)?\nWhat is the best place for a couple?	For any ski area in Lake Tahoe, I recommend the Embassy Suites in South Lake Tahoe. It is on the California side (no casino = no smoke and noise), has an excellent free breakfast every morning, and has free beer and wine each night. The buses for Kirkwood, Sierra, Squaw, etc. stop at the front door, so you are about a half hour from Kirkwood without needing a car. You can walk to the Heavenly Gondola next door. If you like gambling, the casinos are across the street.
5,024	3Education & Reference	Which is correct -- "He is smarter than me," or "He is smarter than I." ?		He is smarter than I. \n\nThe key is than. You have ended the sentence with a than-clause, but, according to proper grammar, you must have a subject and verb to have a clause. And you do. Basically, you have removed the rest of the words from the clause because they are understood. Theoretically, the sentence should be "He is smarter than I am smart." "..than I am smart" is the clause. \n\nThis also works with as-clauses, "He is as smart as I." As odd as it sounds, you would finish that thought by saying, "He is as smart as I am smart." \n\nWhen ending a sentence with either a than or as-clause, you can always test it by finishing the clause.

5,026	4Computers & Internet	how do i clear the shearch menu?	the menu has all the old shearches i did befor and i want to clear them	In order to completely clear searches in your web browser, you have to do two steps.\n\nFirst (for Internet Explorer), click on Tools tab, internet options, and Clear History button. After you do that, set 'Days to keep pages in history' to 0.\n\nSecond (and this is just as important as the first step), click on Tools tab, internet options, 'Content' tab, and click on the AutoComplete button (in the Personal information area). Click on 'ClearForms' button.\n\nDoing both of those steps should completely clear your web searches.

All you do is download a trusted adware/spyware remover, I used Microsoft BETA http://www.microsoft.com/athome/security/spyware/software/default.mspx) and its free too. Try it.
5,028	4Computers & Internet	Can anyone give me a few website names that will give me a free link back to my website, Page Rank 5 and up?

To become a National Merit Scholar, you need a high score on the PSAT.
5,030	6Business & Finance	foods for low residual diet?		A low residue diet is basically a low-fiber diet. I.E., to avoid lots of whole grains, many fresh fruits & vegetables. It also includes low amounts of dairy and prune juice!\n\nQuestion is, why are you on a low-residue diet? Do you have diverticu-litis/-losis or Crohn's? If so, this diet is strictly for during flare ups--it's not something to continue forever (as most people might believe). When symtpoms go away, you need to slowly reintroduce fiber back into your diet (make sure to drink more water/fluids as well) and if any food does cause any trouble, just eliminate it from your diet. But do NOT eliminate high fiber foods from your diet.\n\nAnd as far as diverticulitis/-osis--there is no proof that seeds & nuts cause a problem between flare ups (as many doctors would have you avoid!).
5,031	0Society & Culture	Is Adolph Hilter son of Jose Rizal?	there was a rumor that Jose Rizal had an affair with a young lady in Germany, and that it was suspected to be the mom of hilter.. is this true?	no.\n\nTruth: Jose Rizal was in London in July - September 1888. Hitler’s mother lived and remained in Austria which is 1,135 km., away. Considering the distance, it is completely impossible for Rizal, to have fathered Hitler.

Wow, your message is not a good advertisement for legalizing pot!\n\nBut to answer your question, because they don't get it. They believe that pot is to blame for all drug use and that it leads to harder drugs.\n\nBooze and pot do different things, either one is real bad for you if not used in moderation. Some people are not capable of moderation with the use of their drug of choice.
5,034	6Business & Finance	why do people think they know everything from a gangs perspective as if they know what really goes on ?		Gang life gets a lot of 'coverage' in movies, music, etc., people who havent live that life hear about it a little and then think they know it all. \n\nThats why you see phoney ass kids (typically white) who come from good neighborhoods claiming to be from this gang or the other, wearing colors, and kicking their s hi t to the side, and thats why they end up getting killed. hope that helps.

5,036	4Computers & Internet	how big is the internet?	how big is the internet? in terms of memory size? is there any other parameter to measure the internet?	That answer changes every second.

5,040	0Society & Culture	when languages were first introduced?	how people started communicating each other?\nin the beginning was there only sign language?\nwhich language was the first to be spoken by human?	Language is always changing, therefore the language that was first spoken by humans no longer exists. It is the mother that gave birth to all of the languages that exist today. The mother's spirit is in all the children, but none of the children are the mother. \n \nA sort of Holy Grail of linguistics would be to discover what the mother of all languages was like. It's possible that with enough study we can figure out something about it-- we have after all learned quite a bit about Indo-European, a prehistorical language which has been discovered by careful examinations of the commonalities between modern languages stretching all the way across Europe and Asia. \n \nThe first language probably developed along with the first speakers, people who lived long enough ago that not just their cultures but even their bodies were substantially different from how things are now. \n \nIt's pure speculation, but I think that sign language and spoken language probably emerged at the same time, in that strange noble race. Sign and spoken languages seem to me to share a spiritual core, to be the same in their essence. The great singular power of our facility of language is to make any thing mean any other thing. A pile of rocks may mean a burning fire. Some strangely shaped lines can mean the very "meaning" itself. What a glorious world. \n \n<3

5,048	7Entertainment & Music	Why does Leno and Letterman start at 35 past the hour?		The start times for both "The Tonight Show starring Johnny Carson" and "Late Night with David Letterman" were pushed back by 5 minutes (to 11:35 and 12:35, respectively) beginning in September of 1991. The extra 5 minutes gave affiliated stations the opportunity to add an additional commercial break during their profitable late newscasts.\n\nFrom wikipedia:\n\nStarting in September 1991, the show began five minutes later, at the request of NBC affiliates (though Letterman had a different reason for the delay: "With the extra five minutes, I will make certain that my make-up is absolutely perfect").
5,049	0Society & Culture	What is a Metis?		The word from the French can be translated as “half-breed” or “mixed breed.” In the French colonial context, the metis constitutes a distinct, but unstable racial category; the term can refer to those of French and Native American descent, those of French and African descent, those called mulattoes, Creoles and so on, varying according to geography. The literal translation usually carries a negative connotation. In fact, there is no real equivalent word for “metis” in English. ...

5,051	6Business & Finance	how did christians worship before constatine devised the trinity and roman catholocism?	I would like to know how the christians worship less the paganism added over the centuries. In essence, how did the founding saints worship the Father, what Holy Days did they pratice, and did they believe the Messiah to be God in the flesh.	Study Modalism, not to be confused with Patripassianism.\n\nThe Trinity was a product of philosophy, and politics. Theological Evolution. You can see that early "trinitarians" rarely agreed with each other, and all held the 'heresy of sub-ordination'\n\nIt was not until the Council of Nicea that the trinity was given a 'solid' form that could be built upon by later councils.\n\nEusubius, from which we know most of what we know about Nicea, went to the council for the express purpose that modalists would not have a voice in the council, and they didn't. He origianlly went to help arius, but had been misinformed about his beliefs, and then supported athanasius, since Esubius liked Origen's teachings.\n\nWhen studying modalism, remember that trinitarians oversimplify the doctrine and label it as patripassianism. This comes soley from claims from thier ancient enemies such as Tertullian and Hippolytus. \n\nModalism beleives that Jesus was the messiah, God manifested in the flesh, but that he WAS NOT God in three persons, but rather God in A person, who was the image of the invisible God. The Logos, the plan God had in His mind since the Beginning.\n\nPatripassianism is the view that the Father died on the cross. I am not a modalist. God did not die on the cross, the human flesh died on the cross, not the divine Spirit that dwelt fully within Him.\n\nWere Praxeas and Sabellius patripassianists? Really, NO ONE can say yes or no. All we have are biased writings from thier enemies. Historically, no one knows.\n\nThere is but ONE God. Jesus is the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

5,053	4Computers & Internet	how does search engine works?		"Web search engines work by storing information about a large number of web pages, which they retrieve from the WWW itself. These pages are retrieved by a web crawler (sometimes also known as a spider) — an automated web browser which follows every link it sees. The contents of each page are then analyzed to determine how it should be indexed (for example, words are extracted from the titles, headings, or special fields called meta tags). Data about web pages is stored in an index database for use in later queries. Some search engines, such as Google, store all or part of the source page (referred to as a cache) as well as information about the web pages, whereas some store every word of every page it finds, such as AltaVista. This cached page always holds the actual search text since it is the one that was actually indexed, so it can be very useful when the content of the current page has been updated and the search terms are no longer in it. This problem might be considered to be a mild form of linkrot, and Google's handling of it increases usability by satisfying user expectations that the search terms will be on the returned web page. This satisfies the principle of least astonishment since the user normally expects the search terms to be on the returned pages. Increased search relevance makes these cached pages very useful, even beyond the fact that they may contain data that may no longer be available elsewhere."

Windows media player semes to control my computer anyone have the same proplem. took off some of my mp3 files	I'm not exactly sure what you mean by "seems to control my computer" but when I did use WMP in the past (I now moved to iTunes) it served me fairly well for a basic music player.

5,055	5Sports	what is fantasy football?		You get into a league with a few of your friends. You each make your "team" full of players on real NFL teams. The players on your team don't play together in real life. You get points based on their real life stats. If you have Peyton Manning and he throws 4 TDs in real life, then you get his stats. The team with the best stats wins.

5,059	2Health	Has bird flu infected humans yet?		Rylog,\n Birdflu infected upto 133 members as per some records. This is only infected when they got in touch with those birds or their excreta. But the whole world is getting worried if it across from human to human. Upto now all infections are from bird to human, not human to human. Example for human to human infections are winter flu, but we got vaccine for that. Where as for birdflue, there is no vaccine as such. Roche, a company which manufactures TamiFle might help for this. Scientists are still working on the vaccine. \n\nHope this helps..

5,061	3Education & Reference	What pragmatic phenomena play an important part in foreign language teaching?		First, it pays for a person to learn something of the structure of the language they want to learn, especially in the ways it differs from their native language. That is, if this language normally puts the verb at the end of the sentence, whereas English normally puts it between the subject and the object. However, this also presupposes they know something of the structure of their own native language. In America, that's not a foregoing conclusion. The schools teach very little of English structure anymore. I have asked any number of young people of my acquaintance, and they have never even heard of diagramming sentences, not even as an exercise the teacher might put on the blackboard, let alone something they would be expected to do. In my sixth grade class, we had ten sentences to diagram for homework every day.

5,066	4Computers & Internet	How was internet discovered?	You have not given me my anawer as yet.	During the 1950s, several communications researchers realized that there was a need to allow general communication between users of various computers and communications networks. This led to research into decentralized networks, queuing theory, and packet switching. The subsequent creation of ARPANET in the United States in turn catalyzed a wave of technical developments that made it the basis for the development of the Internet. Contrary to popular myth, the DoD did not create the ARPANET so that they could communicate to the US Government after a nuclear war.\n\nThe first TCP/IP wide area network was operational in 1984 when the United States' National Science Foundation (NSF) constructed a university network backbone that would later become the NSFNet. It was then followed by the opening of the network to commercial interests in 1995. Important separate networks that offered gateways into, then later merged into the Internet include Usenet, Bitnet and the various commercial and educational X.25 networks such as Compuserve and JANET. The ability of TCP/IP to work over these pre-existing communication networks allowed for a great ease of growth. Use of Internet as a phrase to describe a single global TCP/IP network originated around this time.\n\nThe collective network gained a public face in the 1990s. In August 1991 CERN in Switzerland publicized the new World Wide Web project, two years after Tim Berners-Lee had begun creating HTML, HTTP and the first few web pages at CERN in Switzerland. In 1993 the Mosaic web browser version 1.0 was released, and by late 1994 there was growing public interest in the previously academic/technical Internet. By 1996 the word "Internet" was common public currency, but it referred almost entirely to the World Wide Web.\n\nMeanwhile, over the course of the decade, the Internet successfully accommodated the majority of previously existing public computer networks (although some networks such as FidoNet have remained separate). This growth is often attributed to the lack of central administration, which allows organic growth of the network, as well as the non-proprietary open nature of the Internet protocols, which encourages vendor interoperability and prevents any one company from exerting too much control over the network.

Sometimes the translation from another language looses much in translation, especially with Westerners, who have preconceived ideas. The paragraph below was written by a Nigerian and perhaps is a pretty good translation:\n\n“A substantial number of Igbo females bear names associated with Chi, `the Igbo personal life force', while equally a substantial number of males bear names associated with Chi's compound form, Chukwu (Chi ukwu) translated as `big Chi'. We refer to all these as Chi names. (However, where essential distinctions are drawn between the two, we refer to them as Chi names or Chukwu names respectively).”

Well I happen to enjoy both Anime and Manga, though I've only recently gotten into manga. Personally, my favorite is Ruroni Kenshin, I like the story, the serioussness mixed with comedy, and the overall sadness of the story. My second favorite would have to be Scryed, a fairly new anime. Personally, though, there are very few animes that I don't like. Cowboy Bebop, Wolf's Rain, Samurai Champloo, Full Metal Alchemist, Full Metal Panic, Inuyasha, Big O, Soul Hunter, Dragon Ball Z, Gundam....all of these are great anime's and I enjoy each of them. I mainly get my anime from Cartoon Network but I do own a few that are not on Adult Swim. I've always liked the range of emotions that run throughout most anime, and the over the top action is great as well. There is alot that I enjoy about anime, most of which can't be summed up into words :D. The only ones I hate are: Pokemon, Digimon, Yugi-oh, and Reign. I'm sure there are more but those are the only ones I can remember. Anyway, anime is great, those are my thoughts.
5,088	9Politics & Government	Why, for the majority, is academia so liberal when it comes to politics?		Academia is so liberal because they learn so much about everything that the feel they must accept it all. So they begin to think of everything as relative, including right and wrong. Eventually they think they are so much smarter than everyone because they are so 'open-minded' that they lose their souls in their quest to be 'open-minded'. Not only will they support a religious Jihad that kills innocent people but they will blame it on the innocent people that are killed because we 'just don't understand' our attackers. So, in summary, academia is so liberal because they want to be relativists about everything. They forget that to have shades of gray, there needs to be black and white.

5,097	2Health	what causes the hiccups?	what causes hiccups??? anyone know.. i was always told its your heart skipping a beat is this true??????	A hiccup or hiccough (generally pronounced "hiccup" independent of the spelling) is an involuntary spasm of the diaphragm; typically this repeats several times a minute. The sudden rush of air into the lungs causes the glottis to close, creating the "hic" noise. A bout of hiccups generally resolves by itself, although many home remedies are in circulation to shorten the duration, and medication is occasionally necessary. By extension, the term "hiccup" is also used to describe a small and unrepeated aberration in an otherwise consistent pattern. The medical term is singultus.\n\nWhile many cases develop spontaneously, hiccups are known to develop often in specific situations, such as eating too quickly, taking a cold drink while eating a hot meal, eating very hot or spicy food, laughing vigorously or coughing, or drinking an excess of an alcoholic beverage. Hiccups may be caused by pressure to the phrenic nerve by other anatomical structures, or rarely by tumors.

Why should the subjects Literature and Grammar be merged?

If you are in a school where Literature and Grammar are two subjects... couldn't they be considered as one?

No. Literature is the study of written art, in the form of novels, stories, or poetry. Grammar is the study of language, in the form of sentence structure, word selection, and written composition. Grammar is an aspect of literature study, since proper grammar and grammatical choices can offer insight to literature. Grammar, however, is applicable to more than just literature, and is funamental to a proper understanding of language even in everyday discussions or quick e-mails. Grammar should be taught and mastered before literature is carefully examined. Grammar applies to a broader array of fields; literature os a more narrow and advanced topic.

Not for at least one more version of each package. At first they're just planning to make each program more friendly to the other's file formats. That's what they said in their press release.\n\nHowever, in my opinion they can't go on for long with two programs that have so much overlap in functionality. Unless they intentionally cripple or limit one or both they're wasting money having two redundant R&D paths.\n\nWhich brings me to my last point - Maya will likely benefit most in the coming version(s) from the much larger budget for their development than they had with Alias as it's own tiny company (compared to Discreet/Autodesk)

Which is correct -- "He is smarter than me," or "He is smarter than I." ?

He is smarter than I. \n\nThe key is than. You have ended the sentence with a than-clause, but, according to proper grammar, you must have a subject and verb to have a clause. And you do. Basically, you have removed the rest of the words from the clause because they are understood. Theoretically, the sentence should be "He is smarter than I am smart." "..than I am smart" is the clause. \n\nThis also works with as-clauses, "He is as smart as I." As odd as it sounds, you would finish that thought by saying, "He is as smart as I am smart." \n\nWhen ending a sentence with either a than or as-clause, you can always test it by finishing the clause.

foods for low residual diet?

A low residue diet is basically a low-fiber diet. I.E., to avoid lots of whole grains, many fresh fruits & vegetables. It also includes low amounts of dairy and prune juice!\n\nQuestion is, why are you on a low-residue diet? Do you have diverticu-litis/-losis or Crohn's? If so, this diet is strictly for during flare ups--it's not something to continue forever (as most people might believe). When symtpoms go away, you need to slowly reintroduce fiber back into your diet (make sure to drink more water/fluids as well) and if any food does cause any trouble, just eliminate it from your diet. But do NOT eliminate high fiber foods from your diet.\n\nAnd as far as diverticulitis/-osis--there is no proof that seeds & nuts cause a problem between flare ups (as many doctors would have you avoid!).

Gang life gets a lot of 'coverage' in movies, music, etc., people who havent live that life hear about it a little and then think they know it all. \n\nThats why you see phoney ass kids (typically white) who come from good neighborhoods claiming to be from this gang or the other, wearing colors, and kicking their s hi t to the side, and thats why they end up getting killed. hope that helps.

when languages were first introduced?

how people started communicating each other?\nin the beginning was there only sign language?\nwhich language was the first to be spoken by human?

Language is always changing, therefore the language that was first spoken by humans no longer exists. It is the mother that gave birth to all of the languages that exist today. The mother's spirit is in all the children, but none of the children are the mother. \n \nA sort of Holy Grail of linguistics would be to discover what the mother of all languages was like. It's possible that with enough study we can figure out something about it-- we have after all learned quite a bit about Indo-European, a prehistorical language which has been discovered by careful examinations of the commonalities between modern languages stretching all the way across Europe and Asia. \n \nThe first language probably developed along with the first speakers, people who lived long enough ago that not just their cultures but even their bodies were substantially different from how things are now. \n \nIt's pure speculation, but I think that sign language and spoken language probably emerged at the same time, in that strange noble race. Sign and spoken languages seem to me to share a spiritual core, to be the same in their essence. The great singular power of our facility of language is to make any thing mean any other thing. A pile of rocks may mean a burning fire. Some strangely shaped lines can mean the very "meaning" itself. What a glorious world. \n \n<3

how did christians worship before constatine devised the trinity and roman catholocism?

I would like to know how the christians worship less the paganism added over the centuries. In essence, how did the founding saints worship the Father, what Holy Days did they pratice, and did they believe the Messiah to be God in the flesh.

Study Modalism, not to be confused with Patripassianism.\n\nThe Trinity was a product of philosophy, and politics. Theological Evolution. You can see that early "trinitarians" rarely agreed with each other, and all held the 'heresy of sub-ordination'\n\nIt was not until the Council of Nicea that the trinity was given a 'solid' form that could be built upon by later councils.\n\nEusubius, from which we know most of what we know about Nicea, went to the council for the express purpose that modalists would not have a voice in the council, and they didn't. He origianlly went to help arius, but had been misinformed about his beliefs, and then supported athanasius, since Esubius liked Origen's teachings.\n\nWhen studying modalism, remember that trinitarians oversimplify the doctrine and label it as patripassianism. This comes soley from claims from thier ancient enemies such as Tertullian and Hippolytus. \n\nModalism beleives that Jesus was the messiah, God manifested in the flesh, but that he WAS NOT God in three persons, but rather God in A person, who was the image of the invisible God. The Logos, the plan God had in His mind since the Beginning.\n\nPatripassianism is the view that the Father died on the cross. I am not a modalist. God did not die on the cross, the human flesh died on the cross, not the divine Spirit that dwelt fully within Him.\n\nWere Praxeas and Sabellius patripassianists? Really, NO ONE can say yes or no. All we have are biased writings from thier enemies. Historically, no one knows.\n\nThere is but ONE God. Jesus is the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

how does search engine works?

"Web search engines work by storing information about a large number of web pages, which they retrieve from the WWW itself. These pages are retrieved by a web crawler (sometimes also known as a spider) — an automated web browser which follows every link it sees. The contents of each page are then analyzed to determine how it should be indexed (for example, words are extracted from the titles, headings, or special fields called meta tags). Data about web pages is stored in an index database for use in later queries. Some search engines, such as Google, store all or part of the source page (referred to as a cache) as well as information about the web pages, whereas some store every word of every page it finds, such as AltaVista. This cached page always holds the actual search text since it is the one that was actually indexed, so it can be very useful when the content of the current page has been updated and the search terms are no longer in it. This problem might be considered to be a mild form of linkrot, and Google's handling of it increases usability by satisfying user expectations that the search terms will be on the returned web page. This satisfies the principle of least astonishment since the user normally expects the search terms to be on the returned pages. Increased search relevance makes these cached pages very useful, even beyond the fact that they may contain data that may no longer be available elsewhere."

What pragmatic phenomena play an important part in foreign language teaching?

First, it pays for a person to learn something of the structure of the language they want to learn, especially in the ways it differs from their native language. That is, if this language normally puts the verb at the end of the sentence, whereas English normally puts it between the subject and the object. However, this also presupposes they know something of the structure of their own native language. In America, that's not a foregoing conclusion. The schools teach very little of English structure anymore. I have asked any number of young people of my acquaintance, and they have never even heard of diagramming sentences, not even as an exercise the teacher might put on the blackboard, let alone something they would be expected to do. In my sixth grade class, we had ten sentences to diagram for homework every day.

How was internet discovered?

You have not given me my anawer as yet.

During the 1950s, several communications researchers realized that there was a need to allow general communication between users of various computers and communications networks. This led to research into decentralized networks, queuing theory, and packet switching. The subsequent creation of ARPANET in the United States in turn catalyzed a wave of technical developments that made it the basis for the development of the Internet. Contrary to popular myth, the DoD did not create the ARPANET so that they could communicate to the US Government after a nuclear war.\n\nThe first TCP/IP wide area network was operational in 1984 when the United States' National Science Foundation (NSF) constructed a university network backbone that would later become the NSFNet. It was then followed by the opening of the network to commercial interests in 1995. Important separate networks that offered gateways into, then later merged into the Internet include Usenet, Bitnet and the various commercial and educational X.25 networks such as Compuserve and JANET. The ability of TCP/IP to work over these pre-existing communication networks allowed for a great ease of growth. Use of Internet as a phrase to describe a single global TCP/IP network originated around this time.\n\nThe collective network gained a public face in the 1990s. In August 1991 CERN in Switzerland publicized the new World Wide Web project, two years after Tim Berners-Lee had begun creating HTML, HTTP and the first few web pages at CERN in Switzerland. In 1993 the Mosaic web browser version 1.0 was released, and by late 1994 there was growing public interest in the previously academic/technical Internet. By 1996 the word "Internet" was common public currency, but it referred almost entirely to the World Wide Web.\n\nMeanwhile, over the course of the decade, the Internet successfully accommodated the majority of previously existing public computer networks (although some networks such as FidoNet have remained separate). This growth is often attributed to the lack of central administration, which allows organic growth of the network, as well as the non-proprietary open nature of the Internet protocols, which encourages vendor interoperability and prevents any one company from exerting too much control over the network.

Sometimes the translation from another language looses much in translation, especially with Westerners, who have preconceived ideas. The paragraph below was written by a Nigerian and perhaps is a pretty good translation:\n\n“A substantial number of Igbo females bear names associated with Chi, `the Igbo personal life force', while equally a substantial number of males bear names associated with Chi's compound form, Chukwu (Chi ukwu) translated as `big Chi'. We refer to all these as Chi names. (However, where essential distinctions are drawn between the two, we refer to them as Chi names or Chukwu names respectively).”

What is ur thoughts about Japanesse manga and anime...\nWhich one do u like best.\n"Pokémon is a Anime."

Well I happen to enjoy both Anime and Manga, though I've only recently gotten into manga. Personally, my favorite is Ruroni Kenshin, I like the story, the serioussness mixed with comedy, and the overall sadness of the story. My second favorite would have to be Scryed, a fairly new anime. Personally, though, there are very few animes that I don't like. Cowboy Bebop, Wolf's Rain, Samurai Champloo, Full Metal Alchemist, Full Metal Panic, Inuyasha, Big O, Soul Hunter, Dragon Ball Z, Gundam....all of these are great anime's and I enjoy each of them. I mainly get my anime from Cartoon Network but I do own a few that are not on Adult Swim. I've always liked the range of emotions that run throughout most anime, and the over the top action is great as well. There is alot that I enjoy about anime, most of which can't be summed up into words :D. The only ones I hate are: Pokemon, Digimon, Yugi-oh, and Reign. I'm sure there are more but those are the only ones I can remember. Anyway, anime is great, those are my thoughts.

Why, for the majority, is academia so liberal when it comes to politics?

Academia is so liberal because they learn so much about everything that the feel they must accept it all. So they begin to think of everything as relative, including right and wrong. Eventually they think they are so much smarter than everyone because they are so 'open-minded' that they lose their souls in their quest to be 'open-minded'. Not only will they support a religious Jihad that kills innocent people but they will blame it on the innocent people that are killed because we 'just don't understand' our attackers. So, in summary, academia is so liberal because they want to be relativists about everything. They forget that to have shades of gray, there needs to be black and white.

being a single parent with no diploma, How can i get my high school diploma in a short amount of time?

Go to your local library and get the most current book: "How to Study For G.E.D Test" or similar tittle. You can study on your own, or check the school board and see if they have free adult education classes. Study your weakest subjects, review the others, and understand how the test will be given. Then go for it! Good luck :)

How can I find scuba diving buddies when I don't have any contacts in the area I want to dive?

Looking to get in a few more dives and a roadtrip before the Holidays, but I have nowhere to start!

I would suggest visiting a local dive store (LDS) and checking: a) on any buddy lists they may have; b) any shop dives they do (typically these are free shore dives); c) any dive clubs in the area they are aware of; and d) any local charters they do. Heck, visit more than one LDS!\n\nAlso, taking an advanced class might allow you to also meet new people.

what causes the hiccups?

what causes hiccups??? anyone know.. i was always told its your heart skipping a beat is this true??????

A hiccup or hiccough (generally pronounced "hiccup" independent of the spelling) is an involuntary spasm of the diaphragm; typically this repeats several times a minute. The sudden rush of air into the lungs causes the glottis to close, creating the "hic" noise. A bout of hiccups generally resolves by itself, although many home remedies are in circulation to shorten the duration, and medication is occasionally necessary. By extension, the term "hiccup" is also used to describe a small and unrepeated aberration in an otherwise consistent pattern. The medical term is singultus.\n\nWhile many cases develop spontaneously, hiccups are known to develop often in specific situations, such as eating too quickly, taking a cold drink while eating a hot meal, eating very hot or spicy food, laughing vigorously or coughing, or drinking an excess of an alcoholic beverage. Hiccups may be caused by pressure to the phrenic nerve by other anatomical structures, or rarely by tumors.

What credit score is required to get a Discover card?

It definitely depends on the card you are applying for. Off the top of my head, I would say that any score over 650 would land you the card.
