6,201	7Entertainment & Music	What is your favorite movie of all time? And why?		M - It's an old German movie with Peter Lorre (in his first appearance). It's humorous at times, with a few twists, and ultimately pokes at the human condition. It -was- going to be called "Murderers Among Us," but the Nazi party didn't like that because they thought it was a reference to them. In reality it wasn't, there aren't even any Nazis in the film.\n\nOh, and Bladerunner. I like film noir/sci fi...

6,209	5Sports	what team are you rooting for this year?	I'm pulling for the Suns this year, just as I did last year. It sucks that they got rid of Johnson but I figure they'll still do really good. they don't have Amare' right now and are already starting to do really good again. not to mention Nash is the Man! so who is everyone else pulling for?	I'm rooting for the ROCKETS !!! I know we're doing horrible right now but it's ok; they'll shake it off =p. (Plus we just won today. Yay !!) My boyfriend likes the Suns too; he loves Nash (what a traitor) haha.
6,210	7Entertainment & Music	When people mention Nirvana all they talk about is Kurt Cobain. Why?		Kurt was such a force in the band that to most people he literally was Nirvana. In a way, it may have contributed to his suicide. I'm sure he wasn't prepared for the intensity of interest in the band, the music, and him. \n\nKurt's death at the height of the band's popularity further intensified people's interest in him. I think the whole thing was totally ill-suited for him. One day Kurt and Krist Novolesic were just a couple of kids in a poor logging town in Washington, and then they, along with Dave Grohl, became this musical phenomenon in a few years' time.

Yes, dark bowls is an indication of a high preserviative intake... Try the site below... They make a very good colon cleaner. When your colon is cleaned your bowel movemnts will return to a milky brown color which is normal.... \n\nI am not sure about dark bowels meaning you have blood in them. I have never heard or read that being a cause.
6,218	6Business & Finance	Some times I have seen INR written on a christian cross (holy cross). What does INR stands for?		According to the Christian's New Testament itself, Matthew 27:35-37, the letters, which are INRI, are the accusation against Jesus for which the Romans crucified him. \n\nIn the Roman world, crucifixion, a particularly horrible way to die, was reserved for those who threatened the rule of Rome. Rome saw Jesus as an insurrectionist, the leader of a group of people who saw someone else besides the Emporer of Rome to be their King. \n\nThe New Testament text, in Matthew 27:37, states that the accusation against Jesus was "This is Jesus, the King of the Jews." The Roman message to all who saw Jesus on the cross was clear, that if this is the person you think is your King, instead of the Emporer in Rome, then this is what will happen to him. \n\nThe Christian New Testament also states that Jesus was crucified between two "robbers." But the word in the Greek, Lestes, for robbers, in every other Roman Historian (Tacitus, Josephus, Philo) is used to mean a rebel, and not a robber.\n\nMat 27:35-37 35 And they crucified him, and parted his garments, casting lots: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, They parted my garments among them, and upon my vesture did they cast lots. 36 And sitting down they watched him there; 37 And set up over his head HIS ACCUSATION written, 'This Is Jesus The King Of The Jews.'
6,219	0Society & Culture	What's a good reply when asked a personal question you don't want to answer (like how much is your rent?)?	Looking for a reply that doesn't make the other person mad or hurt their feelings, but makes clear that the question is not going to be answered. Prefer not to lie.	Turning it into a joke usually works the best for me. For instance if someone asks how much is your rent, you can reply with "Too much! Way too much, in fact i think i'll stop paying it soon and live in a cardboard box", or if someone asks how much you make, i've used "not enough, i'm really not sure i'll be able to pay off my private jet any time soon". Something along those lines usually lets the person know that you are not willing to give out specifics, yet at the same time it's not rude or hurtful to them.
6,220	9Politics & Government	Who is the dumbest united states president?		That's a difficult question to answer as I don't believe there is a uniform standard of intelligence tests that existed for all US Presidents. Thus, as it may seem to many in this generation that George W. Bush is stupid, it may be that he is not the least intelligent of the bunch. Other presidents have, in their time, made their own errors. William Henry Harrision died of a cold, and William Howard Taft got stuck in a bathtub.
6,221	0Society & Culture	Do you think Humans will ever become extinct in the distant future?		Considering that 99% of the species the Earth has ever seen are now extinct, speaking in terms of probability, we're probably going to be a pretty short-lived species in the grand scheme of things.
6,222	9Politics & Government	is nigeria the best country in west africa?		Well, I'll admit my knowledge of West Africa isn't exactly top-notch, but my first thought when I hear Nigeria is the 419 email scheme. (See source for more info.) Not exactly a great PR booster.
6,223	4Computers & Internet	how much would it cost to stop pop ups and get virsus protection on computer by verizon.?		Should be able to get MSN Premium as part of Verizon DSL (Not sure about Verizon/Yahoo).\nMSN Premium allows you to Download McAfee for free with all features. By the way, I dropped Verizon Premium DSL after the Yahoo deal because my speed dropped and they wouldn't do anything about it. Poor service at Verizon. I was on a month to month plan and they charged me a early termination fee, same as if I had contract. No wonder they show profits.

6,225	9Politics & Government	When you send a letter international, how does the postage get divided between the different countries?		The Universal Postal Union, an agency of the United Nations, coordinates the worldwide postal system. Originally, UPU policies required that the sending country retain the postage, however, in 1969 a system that divided the postal revenues between two countries according to the difference in the total weight of mail took effect.
6,226	9Politics & Government	Is the 11th Amendment UN_Constitutional?	Choose a best answer q\n \ncustomer tur...\n1 week ago\n\n6 day(s) left to answer. \n was the 11th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, UN-Constitutionally adopted?\nWas the Amendment UN-Constitutional because it was not in Pursuance of the Original Constitution? \n\nAdditional Details\n\nDec 24, 2005 at 10:07 am\nIn Pursiance thereof; I bealieve, means not to revise any part of the ORIGINAL\n\nDec 31, 2005 at 8:25 am\nI will withhold this deputy clerk's name, but in the federal courts today, some clerks and yes even in the United States Supreme Court, the deputy clerk uses the 11th Amendment, and even though the Amendment does not state this, the clerk states that an individual can not sue thier own state, this statement is fact. Just imagine, that the hard core confederates, thought if and when the slaves are freed, they will be able to sue us for the past treatment. The Founding Fathers correctly framed the Original Constitution. We would not have all this corruption in our government, if the this Amendment was decided to be UN-Constitutional so that the court clerks that use the law to abridge the people's rights could no longer do this. The Founding Fathers with the Original Constitution knew correctly that when the 1st Amendment is correctly followed in realation to the states, that "only honorable" persons would then be placed in the position of all our government.\n\nYou can't answer your own question. \n \nEmail Question \| Add Details \| Call a Vote \| Extend Expiration \| Delete Question \n \nAnswers\n\nOrbus\n1 week ago\n\n\nReport Abuse\n I don't believe failure to be "in pursuance of the original constitution" can render an amendment unconstitutional.\n\nAmendments serve to permit the constitution to be modified - not just the wording, but the spirit. That's why there's such a large consensus required to ratify an amendment - there is no provision to restrict what an amendment can do.\n\nThis is perfectly intentional - the good judgement of the citizens of the United States should make it hard to pass an amendment, and the constitutional authors didn't believe their own judgment to be superior, for all time, than the judgment of the people living in that time.\n\nSo, to answer your question fully, not being in pursuance of the original constitution is in no way a detriment for an amendment - in fact, any amendment that's solely in pursuance of the original constitution is probably unneccessary.\n\nEdit:\nIn light of your revision, Asker, I belive that you disagree with all major constitutional scholars on the meaning of "in Pursuance thereof." I haven't encountered a view elsewhere that claims the Constitution as written was intended to be impossible to change, even in spirit. On the contrary, one of the often-referenced strengths of the document is that it makes radical change possible - even to itself - without reqiring that the govenment be overthrown by force.\n\nWhile I can see where your interpretation comes from, I believe you've made an error, elevating the original state of the constitution above the process it provides for its own amendment. \n\n \n \n \njamesmusik84\n1 week ago\n\n\nReport Abuse\n The constitution specifically says, "The Congress, whenever two thirds of both Houses shall deem it necessary, shall propose Amendments to this Constitution, or, on the Application of the Legislatures of two thirds of the several States, shall call a Convention for proposing Amendments, which, in either Case, shall be valid to all Intents and Purposes, as Part of this Constitution, when ratified by the Legislatures of three fourths of the several States, or by Conventions in three fourths thereof, as the one or the other Mode of Ratification may be proposed by the Congress; Provided that no Amendment which may be made prior to the Year One thousand eight hundred and eight shall in any Manner affect the first and fourth Clauses	An amendment, duly approved by congress and ratified by the various states, by definition, cannot be unconstitutional. That is the whole point of amendments.\n\nEdit: I just wanted to point out that an amendment does not have to specifically repeal provisions in the original document. Only one amendment ever has, when prohibition was repealed, but every amendment has changed something in the original.

6,230	4Computers & Internet	Can anyone explain encapsulation and Abstract concepts of oops ?		Encapsulation is often confused with information hiding. However, these terms are not interchangeable. Encapsulation is the ability to bundle related data and functionality within a single, autonomous entity called a class. For example, a class called LoggerFile might bundle data members such as the log file's path; a buffer of data waiting to be written to that file; and member functions that open, read, write, and close that file, as in the following code listing:\n\nclass LogFile\n{\npublic:\n int Open();\n int Read(char buff);\n int Write(const char buff);\n int Close();\nprivate:\n FILE *logfile;\n bool _open;\n//...additional data members\n};In procedural languages such as C, you declare these data members and the associated functions separately. Consequently, a global function that opens a log file may be mistakenly called to open a file that has already been opened. Worse yet, users might delete a log file and then attempt to write to it. By bundling the data and functionality in an autonomous class, it's much easier to avert such human errors, because the class maintains the state of the file and is therefore able to prevent such errors.\n\nAbstract classes can be used to define the C++ version of interfaces. A C++ abstract class describes functionality shared by objects of all concrete classes that are explicitly listed (perhaps indirectly) as subclasses. An object may play multiple roles by inheriting and implementing multiple interfaces. (The language doesn't directly support notions that an object may play different roles at different times, or that a role is implemented by a collection of objects, but these effects can usually be had in one way or another.) \n\nC++ interface-style abstract classes take an idiomatic form: \n\nclass AnInterface {\npublic:\n virtual T1 aService(T2, T3) = 0;\n ...\n virtual T4 anAttribute() const = 0; // get value\n virtual void anAttribute(T4) = 0; // set value\n ...\n virtual T5 aReadOnlyAttribute() const = 0;\n\n virtual ~AnInterface() {}\n\nprotected:\n AnInterface() {}\n};\n\nIdeally, the types T should consist only of pass-by-value scalar types (int, float, enum, ...), collections of them (structs, ...) and/or pointers to objects of classes also defined via abstract classes (thus representing handles). The lack of native by-value string and array types in C++ is a problem here. One occasionally attractive alternative is to always contain fixed arrays in structs. But in practice, you can make ADT-style types work OK too. This way you can sometimes obtain simpler mechanics and also avoid value copying. ADT-style fake pointer classes may also be used instead of raw pointers for handle types, although there is no perfect way to do this. \n\nAbstract classes sometimes lend themselves to parameterization over some type used in one or more signatures. (Some nice examples are described in Barton and Nachman's book.) Beyond the template prefix, nothing much changes except for the pragmatic problems of dealing with templates in C++. These include for example the fact that template instantiation errors are not usually reported until link time. This is best combatted by prefacing each template with a brief comment about what operations are assumed to be supported on the type (e.g., a < comparison). \n\nSince interface classes cannot be directly instantiated, yet serve as virtual base classes for implementations, the constructors should take no arguments and should be listed as protected. Also, for similar reasons, abstract classes should have a no-op virtual destructor, not one listed as ... = 0. Depending on your compiler, you might need to define the no-op constructor and destructor operations outside the class declaration in a separate .C file. \n\nThe use of const here and elsewhere has its ups and downs. Officially, it is a good idea, since it helps enforce some of the intended semantic guarantees. But often enough, pragmatic concerns get in the

6,240	1Science & Mathematics	where is the universe expanding?		What you really mean to ask is, if the Universe is expanding, a phenomenon that by every conceivable standard of measurement and observation is universally (pun definitely intended) accepted by the scientific community to indeed be fact....\n\n...then what is the Universe exanding into????\n\nThe spooky thing is that no one knows. Science, with \nthe help of the Hubble Telescope has been able to see\nonly about 13 Billion light years out but the Universe itself is estimated to be about 14-15 Billion years old.\n\nThe universe is expanding into the vast emptiness of \nspace. Some scientists have speculated that there may be other universes that extend far beyond our own \nbut its mere speculation. NASA hopes that the next generation of Space Telescope technology scheduled to be launched in 2011, will have the capcity to observe the very edge of the universe about 15 Billion years away and the very first light created in the aftermath of the Big Bang.

6,242	9Politics & Government	can I build a 16' by 20' building without a permit in Jackson county florida?		Assuming you're building on your primary residence, yes. The county code says that "Any additions, alterations or repairs to single-family residences performed by the property owner upon his own property, provided any addition or alteration shall not exceed 1,000 square feet or the square footage of the primary structure, whichever is less" are exempt. If you are not the owner, but are building it on a single-family residence, then the total cost must be under $5,000. Otherwise, no, you need a permit. The relevant section of the source below is 18.2

6,250	6Business & Finance	Should god be loved more than love for parents or family?		Definitely yes - just imagine the last hope of children left by their parents. \nBut this is a fragile question: God says you must love and respect your parents. I think we must meet this demand till the point of not giving ourselves up. Being a parent means such great responsibility that it's easy to develop some features of a behaviour of owners or rulers. And besides, there may be some rivalry between the ex-rulers and the more and more independent growing-up personality... Try not to forget what a lot you have been given in your childhood, but keep an eye on your independent developing peronality - and you may find the proper ballance. Terrorists are never right either fathers or sons...

6,253	4Computers & Internet	can sata and pata raid work at the same time, so in "my computer" all the drives show up as a single space?		If you mean, can you combine both SATA and PATA drives in a single RAID, then the answer is yes, but not a hardware RAID.\n\nThere are two kinds of RAID--hardware and software. Hardware RAID is implemented by a hardware RAID controller, which is either part of your motherboard, or an add-in card. Software RAID is implemented by the operating system. Software RAID is slower than hardware RAID, but if you have a reasonably fast processor, it's not using terribly much slower. If you have a slow processor, it will be slower, and more importantly, it will put a big load on your processor and make everything run slowly.\n\nTo the best of my knowledge, there are no RAID controllers that will RAID an SATA drive with a PATA drive, but you can set up whatever RAID you want with software RAID. If you already have your drives in hardware RAID (and intend to keep them that way) then when you do this, you will be RAIDing the already-existing hardware RAIDs, since a hardware RAID is treated as a single drive on the "software level".\n\nHere's some info on software RAID in Windows:\n\nhttp://www.techimo.com/articles/index.pl?photo=149\n\nHere's some info on software RAID in GNU/Linux:\n\nhttp://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Software-RAID-HOWTO.html\n\nHere's some info on software RAID in Mac OS X:\n\nhttp://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/system_disk_utilities/softraid3.html\n\nYou can find abundant info on doing software RAID on these and other operating systems by entering "software RAID" together with name of the operating system in a search engine.
6,254	9Politics & Government	If a emplyees gets suspended due to poor performance but has had on written documentation about it just!!?		Depends on the state you're in and the employer. In my opinion, the employment contract is initially breached by the employee no longer performing as expected/demanded. The employer has well within his rights to terminate that employee.
6,255	4Computers & Internet	What is the best computer anti-virus do you recommend?	What are the best anti-virus softwares that are free to download on the internet? \nWhat are the best anti-virus softwares that are commercially available?\nIs it alright to use anti-virus softwares at the same time?\nWhat are the best things to do to prevent viruses from infecting our computers especially when we are using the internet?	McAfee used to have a free version but I think it now only offers a free trial period like most reputable antivirus software/companies. Most of these companies also offer from their websites free scans of your computer without installing any software. \n\nAs for commercially available, I would stick with the well known companies that will stand behind their product and give you decent support if needed. E.G. Norton AntiVirus, McAfee Virus Scan, and CA eTrust EZ Antivirus.\n\nI have never run multiple anti-virus packages at the same time. I suspect some combinations will work but I would be hesitate to do this as this type of software is pervasive (i.e., installing and hooking into all parts of your system) and could cause more harm than help. If this is something you're set on doing I would strongly recommend you find or get in writing from each company that makes the software that you plan on running can indeed run simultaneously. \n\nThe best things to do to prevent viruses is somewhat hard to answer without knowing things like what type of e-mail application you use, your level of experience, etc. Starting with e-mail, the most common medium for viruses, you'll have better protection from e-mail viruses when using web based applications (e.g. Yahoo, Hotmail, and just about most major ISPs) vs. applications that are installed on your computer, such as Outlook or Outlook Express. Reason being the e-mail stays on their server vs. being loaded down on your computer. They get the virus not you. Also, be very cautious about opening ANY attachment. This is mostly common sense. If you don't recognize the sender and have no idea why you're getting the e-mail in the first place, don't even open the e-mail let alone the attachment. Don't forget to also delete the e-mail from your Trash can or Deleted folder. If you know the sender but not sure why there's an attachment, once again, don't open it. If you know for a fact why you're getting the e-mail AND the attachment, then and only then would I take the next step and that's use your antivirus software to scan it before opening it. \n\nAlso be judicious about what websites you visit. Don't just click on any link from an e-mail or another website unless you know where it's going to take you. Ask yourself is it really that important (i.e., worth the risk) I go to this website? This is where a good firewall application helps out. \n\nTo wrap this up I would recommend one final thing to consider. Look at securing your entire computer and not just for viruses. Consider looking into purchasing an entire security suite from one company (vs. independent software companies) as they usually provide antivirus, firewall, anti-spam and anti-spyware software. (E.g. CA Internet Security Suite, Norton Internet Security, etc.) Pros: More for your money, better overall protection, and most important, software applications that have been tested together and proven to work together. Who needs the headache of an application corrupting another; uninstall and re-installing; hours on phone with support; etc. \n\nHTH and good luck!

I get good signal everywhere (especially since they merged with AT&T Wireless). And, you can call other Cingular owners for free. Cingular has 51 million subscribers that you can call.
6,257	7Entertainment & Music	What is the most popular kind of music in the U.S.??		Have to agree with Shaun. What a shame, indeed.\nAs far as the charts go, these days it's definitely R&B/Rap/Hip-Hop, follwed by Country, Pop & Rock. As far as live concerts go, however, Rock is way ahead of the pack, followed by Country. Interestingly enough, I just recently read in The Washington Post that most radio stations in the U.S. are, in fact, programmed to Country!
6,258	5Sports	Why does Donovan McNabb get such a bad rap?	He's been when of the good guys in football, and for some reason he is made out to be a bad guy in this whole Terrel Owens thing.	Well, He throws for one of the most hated teams in the NFL. Not sure why they're hated..could be the fans, or the fact that they've never been any good until recent history. Also he was blamed by not only TO, but by his fans for losing last years super bowl...Whether it be poor clock management, or lack of energy. And I'm sure someone will say it's because he's black, which I don't agree with since Culpepper, Vick, and Brooks are all highly rated black QB's.

6,261	8Family & Relationships	i want to know my neumrology?	i want to know my future\ni want to know my marriage	Numerology \nThe Hidden Meaning of Numbers\n \nWhat, exactly, is numerology? Some experts describe it as the place where mysticism meets mathematics. Others call it "metaphysical arithmatic." But, in fact, numerology is simply the study of numbers and their symbolic meanings. Numerologists believe that every number (and every letter, too) has special significance. The most significant numbers are associated with the birth date and the letters of a person's name (which are easily converted to numbers). Learning to interpret this language of numbers can reveal basic personality patterns and hidden talents. It can enhance the quality of life and lead to better decision-making skills.\n\nThe analytical system known as numerology is between three thousand and five thousand years old. Ancient civilzations such as the Chaldeans, the Egyptians, the Babylonians, the Mayans, the Chinese, and the Greeks strongly believed in the power of numbers, and each culture developed a system to interpret the significance of numbers and apply it to daily life.\n\nThe numerology system primarily used today was originally established by Pythagoras of Samos, a Greek philosopher born circa 580 B. C. Pythagoras, known in history as the Father of Mathematics, traveled widely in his quest to uncover the secrets of numbers and their relationship to universal truths. Pythagoras is said to have built his very complex philosophy on a simple premise: "Everything is [a] number, and to know numbers is to know thyself."\n\nNumerology also is closely tied with and plays an important part in the Tarot, the Major Arcana especially. The Major Arcana is numbered from 0 to 21 with each number corresponding to the meaning of the card. The Birthday Number section of this page gives descriptions of the meaning of the numbers 1-31. The meanings of the numbers 1-21 are the same as the meanings of the corresponding cards of the Major Arcana.\n\nYou have many personal numbers in Numerology, just as you have many personal signs in Astrology. These numbers are your Life Path number, Character number, Heart's Desire number, Image number, Power number, and Birthday number. There is also a general Daily Vibration number which depends on the day and is therefore the same for everyone. \n\nYou have to give your bday dude... and btw its been 3 months already...

Is there a pratical way to hook up a computer to the network via wireless connection?	There is a slim chance if you're willing to try it but it's technical. Get a Wireless Access Point (WAP) or a full-blown wireless router and connect it to the office network. Get a wireless network interface card for mom's PC and see if it can see the WAP/router. If not, don't give up. The right way is to hook up mom's PC to the Internet and use VPN or some other means to get onto the office network, which means network changes at the office to permit her PC into it via the Internet. The wrong way is to modify the WAP/router to extend its range. There are a number of resources to do that, from firmware changes to physical antennae which you can purchase or build on your own.

Kurt was such a force in the band that to most people he literally was Nirvana. In a way, it may have contributed to his suicide. I'm sure he wasn't prepared for the intensity of interest in the band, the music, and him. \n\nKurt's death at the height of the band's popularity further intensified people's interest in him. I think the whole thing was totally ill-suited for him. One day Kurt and Krist Novolesic were just a couple of kids in a poor logging town in Washington, and then they, along with Dave Grohl, became this musical phenomenon in a few years' time.

Some times I have seen INR written on a christian cross (holy cross). What does INR stands for?

According to the Christian's New Testament itself, Matthew 27:35-37, the letters, which are INRI, are the accusation against Jesus for which the Romans crucified him. \n\nIn the Roman world, crucifixion, a particularly horrible way to die, was reserved for those who threatened the rule of Rome. Rome saw Jesus as an insurrectionist, the leader of a group of people who saw someone else besides the Emporer of Rome to be their King. \n\nThe New Testament text, in Matthew 27:37, states that the accusation against Jesus was "This is Jesus, the King of the Jews." The Roman message to all who saw Jesus on the cross was clear, that if this is the person you think is your King, instead of the Emporer in Rome, then this is what will happen to him. \n\nThe Christian New Testament also states that Jesus was crucified between two "robbers." But the word in the Greek, Lestes, for robbers, in every other Roman Historian (Tacitus, Josephus, Philo) is used to mean a rebel, and not a robber.\n\nMat 27:35-37 35 And they crucified him, and parted his garments, casting lots: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, They parted my garments among them, and upon my vesture did they cast lots. 36 And sitting down they watched him there; 37 And set up over his head HIS ACCUSATION written, 'This Is Jesus The King Of The Jews.'

What's a good reply when asked a personal question you don't want to answer (like how much is your rent?)?

Looking for a reply that doesn't make the other person mad or hurt their feelings, but makes clear that the question is not going to be answered. Prefer not to lie.

Turning it into a joke usually works the best for me. For instance if someone asks how much is your rent, you can reply with "Too much! Way too much, in fact i think i'll stop paying it soon and live in a cardboard box", or if someone asks how much you make, i've used "not enough, i'm really not sure i'll be able to pay off my private jet any time soon". Something along those lines usually lets the person know that you are not willing to give out specifics, yet at the same time it's not rude or hurtful to them.

Is the 11th Amendment UN_Constitutional?

Choose a best answer q\n \ncustomer tur...\n1 week ago\n\n6 day(s) left to answer. \n was the 11th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, UN-Constitutionally adopted?\nWas the Amendment UN-Constitutional because it was not in Pursuance of the Original Constitution? \n\nAdditional Details\n\nDec 24, 2005 at 10:07 am\nIn Pursiance thereof; I bealieve, means not to revise any part of the ORIGINAL\n\nDec 31, 2005 at 8:25 am\nI will withhold this deputy clerk's name, but in the federal courts today, some clerks and yes even in the United States Supreme Court, the deputy clerk uses the 11th Amendment, and even though the Amendment does not state this, the clerk states that an individual can not sue thier own state, this statement is fact. Just imagine, that the hard core confederates, thought if and when the slaves are freed, they will be able to sue us for the past treatment. The Founding Fathers correctly framed the Original Constitution. We would not have all this corruption in our government, if the this Amendment was decided to be UN-Constitutional so that the court clerks that use the law to abridge the people's rights could no longer do this. The Founding Fathers with the Original Constitution knew correctly that when the 1st Amendment is correctly followed in realation to the states, that "only honorable" persons would then be placed in the position of all our government.\n\nYou can't answer your own question. \n \nEmail Question | Add Details | Call a Vote | Extend Expiration | Delete Question \n \nAnswers\n\nOrbus\n1 week ago\n\n\nReport Abuse\n I don't believe failure to be "in pursuance of the original constitution" can render an amendment unconstitutional.\n\nAmendments serve to permit the constitution to be modified - not just the wording, but the spirit. That's why there's such a large consensus required to ratify an amendment - there is no provision to restrict what an amendment can do.\n\nThis is perfectly intentional - the good judgement of the citizens of the United States should make it hard to pass an amendment, and the constitutional authors didn't believe their own judgment to be superior, for all time, than the judgment of the people living in that time.\n\nSo, to answer your question fully, not being in pursuance of the original constitution is in no way a detriment for an amendment - in fact, any amendment that's solely in pursuance of the original constitution is probably unneccessary.\n\nEdit:\nIn light of your revision, Asker, I belive that you disagree with all major constitutional scholars on the meaning of "in Pursuance thereof." I haven't encountered a view elsewhere that claims the Constitution as written was intended to be impossible to change, even in spirit. On the contrary, one of the often-referenced strengths of the document is that it makes radical change possible - even to itself - without reqiring that the govenment be overthrown by force.\n\nWhile I can see where your interpretation comes from, I believe you've made an error, elevating the original state of the constitution above the process it provides for its own amendment. \n\n \n \n \njamesmusik84\n1 week ago\n\n\nReport Abuse\n The constitution specifically says, "The Congress, whenever two thirds of both Houses shall deem it necessary, shall propose Amendments to this Constitution, or, on the Application of the Legislatures of two thirds of the several States, shall call a Convention for proposing Amendments, which, in either Case, shall be valid to all Intents and Purposes, as Part of this Constitution, when ratified by the Legislatures of three fourths of the several States, or by Conventions in three fourths thereof, as the one or the other Mode of Ratification may be proposed by the Congress; Provided that no Amendment which may be made prior to the Year One thousand eight hundred and eight shall in any Manner affect the first and fourth Clauses

An amendment, duly approved by congress and ratified by the various states, by definition, cannot be unconstitutional. That is the whole point of amendments.\n\nEdit: I just wanted to point out that an amendment does not have to specifically repeal provisions in the original document. Only one amendment ever has, when prohibition was repealed, but every amendment has changed something in the original.

Can anyone explain encapsulation and Abstract concepts of oops ?

Encapsulation is often confused with information hiding. However, these terms are not interchangeable. Encapsulation is the ability to bundle related data and functionality within a single, autonomous entity called a class. For example, a class called LoggerFile might bundle data members such as the log file's path; a buffer of data waiting to be written to that file; and member functions that open, read, write, and close that file, as in the following code listing:\n\nclass LogFile\n{\npublic:\n int Open();\n int Read(char *buff);\n int Write(const char *buff);\n int Close();\nprivate:\n FILE *logfile;\n bool _open;\n//...additional data members\n};In procedural languages such as C, you declare these data members and the associated functions separately. Consequently, a global function that opens a log file may be mistakenly called to open a file that has already been opened. Worse yet, users might delete a log file and then attempt to write to it. By bundling the data and functionality in an autonomous class, it's much easier to avert such human errors, because the class maintains the state of the file and is therefore able to prevent such errors.\n\nAbstract classes can be used to define the C++ version of interfaces. A C++ abstract class describes functionality shared by objects of all concrete classes that are explicitly listed (perhaps indirectly) as subclasses. An object may play multiple roles by inheriting and implementing multiple interfaces. (The language doesn't directly support notions that an object may play different roles at different times, or that a role is implemented by a collection of objects, but these effects can usually be had in one way or another.) \n\nC++ interface-style abstract classes take an idiomatic form: \n\nclass AnInterface {\npublic:\n virtual T1 aService(T2, T3) = 0;\n ...\n virtual T4 anAttribute() const = 0; // get value\n virtual void anAttribute(T4) = 0; // set value\n ...\n virtual T5 aReadOnlyAttribute() const = 0;\n\n virtual ~AnInterface() {}\n\nprotected:\n AnInterface() {}\n};\n\nIdeally, the types T should consist only of pass-by-value scalar types (int, float, enum, ...), collections of them (structs, ...) and/or pointers to objects of classes also defined via abstract classes (thus representing handles). The lack of native by-value string and array types in C++ is a problem here. One occasionally attractive alternative is to always contain fixed arrays in structs. But in practice, you can make ADT-style types work OK too. This way you can sometimes obtain simpler mechanics and also avoid value copying. ADT-style fake pointer classes may also be used instead of raw pointers for handle types, although there is no perfect way to do this. \n\nAbstract classes sometimes lend themselves to parameterization over some type used in one or more signatures. (Some nice examples are described in Barton and Nachman's book.) Beyond the template prefix, nothing much changes except for the pragmatic problems of dealing with templates in C++. These include for example the fact that template instantiation errors are not usually reported until link time. This is best combatted by prefacing each template with a brief comment about what operations are assumed to be supported on the type (e.g., a < comparison). \n\nSince interface classes cannot be directly instantiated, yet serve as virtual base classes for implementations, the constructors should take no arguments and should be listed as protected. Also, for similar reasons, abstract classes should have a no-op virtual destructor, not one listed as ... = 0. Depending on your compiler, you might need to define the no-op constructor and destructor operations outside the class declaration in a separate .C file. \n\nThe use of const here and elsewhere has its ups and downs. Officially, it is a good idea, since it helps enforce some of the intended semantic guarantees. But often enough, pragmatic concerns get in the

Should god be loved more than love for parents or family?

Definitely yes - just imagine the last hope of children left by their parents. \nBut this is a fragile question: God says you must love and respect your parents. I think we must meet this demand till the point of not giving ourselves up. Being a parent means such great responsibility that it's easy to develop some features of a behaviour of owners or rulers. And besides, there may be some rivalry between the ex-rulers and the more and more independent growing-up personality...

can sata and pata raid work at the same time, so in "my computer" all the drives show up as a single space?

If you mean, can you combine both SATA and PATA drives in a single RAID, then the answer is yes, but not a hardware RAID.\n\nThere are two kinds of RAID--hardware and software. Hardware RAID is implemented by a hardware RAID controller, which is either part of your motherboard, or an add-in card. Software RAID is implemented by the operating system. Software RAID is slower than hardware RAID, but if you have a reasonably fast processor, it's not using terribly much slower. If you have a slow processor, it will be slower, and more importantly, it will put a big load on your processor and make everything run slowly.\n\nTo the best of my knowledge, there are no RAID controllers that will RAID an SATA drive with a PATA drive, but you can set up whatever RAID you want with software RAID. If you already have your drives in hardware RAID (and intend to keep them that way) then when you do this, you will be RAIDing the already-existing hardware RAIDs, since a hardware RAID is treated as a single drive on the "software level".\n\nHere's some info on software RAID in Windows:\n\nhttp://www.techimo.com/articles/index.pl?photo=149\n\nHere's some info on software RAID in GNU/Linux:\n\nhttp://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Software-RAID-HOWTO.html\n\nHere's some info on software RAID in Mac OS X:\n\nhttp://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/system_disk_utilities/softraid3.html\n\nYou can find abundant info on doing software RAID on these and other operating systems by entering "software RAID" together with name of the operating system in a search engine.

What is the best computer anti-virus do you recommend?

What are the best anti-virus softwares that are free to download on the internet? \nWhat are the best anti-virus softwares that are commercially available?\nIs it alright to use anti-virus softwares at the same time?\nWhat are the best things to do to prevent viruses from infecting our computers especially when we are using the internet?

McAfee used to have a free version but I think it now only offers a free trial period like most reputable antivirus software/companies. Most of these companies also offer from their websites free scans of your computer without installing any software. \n\nAs for commercially available, I would stick with the well known companies that will stand behind their product and give you decent support if needed. E.G. Norton AntiVirus, McAfee Virus Scan, and CA eTrust EZ Antivirus.\n\nI have never run multiple anti-virus packages at the same time. I suspect some combinations will work but I would be hesitate to do this as this type of software is pervasive (i.e., installing and hooking into all parts of your system) and could cause more harm than help. If this is something you're set on doing I would strongly recommend you find or get in writing from each company that makes the software that you plan on running can indeed run simultaneously. \n\nThe best things to do to prevent viruses is somewhat hard to answer without knowing things like what type of e-mail application you use, your level of experience, etc. Starting with e-mail, the most common medium for viruses, you'll have better protection from e-mail viruses when using web based applications (e.g. Yahoo, Hotmail, and just about most major ISPs) vs. applications that are installed on your computer, such as Outlook or Outlook Express. Reason being the e-mail stays on their server vs. being loaded down on your computer. They get the virus not you. Also, be very cautious about opening ANY attachment. This is mostly common sense. If you don't recognize the sender and have no idea why you're getting the e-mail in the first place, don't even open the e-mail let alone the attachment. Don't forget to also delete the e-mail from your Trash can or Deleted folder. If you know the sender but not sure why there's an attachment, once again, don't open it. If you know for a fact why you're getting the e-mail AND the attachment, then and only then would I take the next step and that's use your antivirus software to scan it before opening it. \n\nAlso be judicious about what websites you visit. Don't just click on any link from an e-mail or another website unless you know where it's going to take you. Ask yourself is it really that important (i.e., worth the risk) I go to this website? This is where a good firewall application helps out. \n\nTo wrap this up I would recommend one final thing to consider. Look at securing your entire computer and not just for viruses. Consider looking into purchasing an entire security suite from one company (vs. independent software companies) as they usually provide antivirus, firewall, anti-spam and anti-spyware software. (E.g. CA Internet Security Suite, Norton Internet Security, etc.) Pros: More for your money, better overall protection, and most important, software applications that have been tested together and proven to work together. Who needs the headache of an application corrupting another; uninstall and re-installing; hours on phone with support; etc. \n\nHTH and good luck!

Numerology \nThe Hidden Meaning of Numbers\n \nWhat, exactly, is numerology? Some experts describe it as the place where mysticism meets mathematics. Others call it "metaphysical arithmatic." But, in fact, numerology is simply the study of numbers and their symbolic meanings. Numerologists believe that every number (and every letter, too) has special significance. The most significant numbers are associated with the birth date and the letters of a person's name (which are easily converted to numbers). Learning to interpret this language of numbers can reveal basic personality patterns and hidden talents. It can enhance the quality of life and lead to better decision-making skills.\n\nThe analytical system known as numerology is between three thousand and five thousand years old. Ancient civilzations such as the Chaldeans, the Egyptians, the Babylonians, the Mayans, the Chinese, and the Greeks strongly believed in the power of numbers, and each culture developed a system to interpret the significance of numbers and apply it to daily life.\n\nThe numerology system primarily used today was originally established by Pythagoras of Samos, a Greek philosopher born circa 580 B. C. Pythagoras, known in history as the Father of Mathematics, traveled widely in his quest to uncover the secrets of numbers and their relationship to universal truths. Pythagoras is said to have built his very complex philosophy on a simple premise: "Everything is [a] number, and to know numbers is to know thyself."\n\nNumerology also is closely tied with and plays an important part in the Tarot, the Major Arcana especially. The Major Arcana is numbered from 0 to 21 with each number corresponding to the meaning of the card. The Birthday Number section of this page gives descriptions of the meaning of the numbers 1-31. The meanings of the numbers 1-21 are the same as the meanings of the corresponding cards of the Major Arcana.\n\nYou have many personal numbers in Numerology, just as you have many personal signs in Astrology. These numbers are your Life Path number, Character number, Heart's Desire number, Image number, Power number, and Birthday number. There is also a general Daily Vibration number which depends on the day and is therefore the same for everyone. \n\nYou have to give your bday dude... and btw its been 3 months already...

im sure if you look right in front of you you will find a good man that loves you for being you and that will treat you like the queen you are. he might not meet your standars but i promise you that you will meet someone who likes you for you not likes the others

What to do about Computer freeze up?

Having problems with computer internet not wanting to dial up and once i get on computer wants to freeze up. Any adivice to help me would be appreciated. Not a computer whiz.

1) check for ventilation problems; CPUs (the core of your PC system) tend to get a lot of heat.\n2) if you have recently added new hardware (supposing you use Windows) go to "My PC(Right Mouse Click)Properties|Hardware|Device Manager", look for the new device, select its properties (again right button click, then Properties) and Disable it (there's a button just for that).\n\nIf those didn't work, then repost your question but explain you have checked for CPU temperature and new devices.\n\nHave a nice day without computer hangs!

Are there more nuns or priests in the Catholic Church?

More Sisters AND Brothers. It's easier to become a member of a religious order than it is to take Holy Orders.\n\nOf course, when you take into account the fact that the Catholic church is seriously hurting for priests (and they say more about that then needing nuns), the answer becomes a bit easier to determine.

office network/home network?

I recently moved my moms computer from her office to her home down the street. Currently her network at her office is with all cables. Is there a pratical way to hook up a computer to the network via wireless connection?

There is a slim chance if you're willing to try it but it's technical. Get a Wireless Access Point (WAP) or a full-blown wireless router and connect it to the office network. Get a wireless network interface card for mom's PC and see if it can see the WAP/router. If not, don't give up. The right way is to hook up mom's PC to the Internet and use VPN or some other means to get onto the office network, which means network changes at the office to permit her PC into it via the Internet. The wrong way is to modify the WAP/router to extend its range. There are a number of resources to do that, from firmware changes to physical antennae which you can purchase or build on your own. Sorry it's all technical and not easy but that's the truth.

We're being controlled by the ignorant or the illiterate. Or both. I've had two questions removed in the past day because someone either didn't read the whole thing or just didn't understand.

I don't understand what you're asking. \n\nCAN SOMEONE GET YAHOO TO DELETE THIS QUESTION.....IT MAKES NO SENSE TO ME.....\n\nok....now where were we? Yeah......that's the only problem with this medium of communication. It's so open to interpretation and unfortunately not everyone can read our sarcasm or wit in the way it is intended.

Have there been ANY conclusive evidence of exterrestrial life?

No..but if you are lucky enough to actually witness their technology..: UFO/disc/sphere/..etc..it certainly closes any doubt involving the questioning of the existence of extraterrestrials. I have been witness several occasions..day and night to objects in the sky..I certainly wasn't looking for them..I just happen to look up at the right times..but perhaps in the near future if we are lucky ..we can get more governments throughout the world to come clean..and fill us in..on what many believe and some even know...that we are not alone..here or the universe

why do certain fundamentalist groups oppose Freemasonery?

As a Mason and a Minister of the Gospel I feel that the problem is the secrecy of the organazation. Often times when people don't understand something they have a fear of it. It should be known that this country, America, was founded by Masons and that a vast majority of our leaders have been members of the Masonic order. It is a Fraternity, not a religion.

How do I get a job and a green card in USA?

Well it depends on you situation.. Where you currently reside and your educational / family background.\nFor example you can be a student, apply to university in the States, apply for a job, apply for a work permit (H1-B) VISA and maybe your employer can sponsor you for a green card. Other possibilities include getting sponsored by a family member who already has a green card, or through politicaly asylum (if you are a refugee of your country for example), or if you marry a U.S. citizen. \nI can't go into much more detail not knowing your particular situation but a great site is http://www.soyouwanna.com/site/syws/greencard/greencardFULL.html \nand has information for various ways for obtaining the green card.

How can a 14 year old make money?

There are practically no jobs out there for kids this young, how?

when my son was 12 he went door to door asking neighbors if there was anything he could do for them to make money. He walked dogs, took garbage out, took cans & bottle for redemption, shoveled, mowed and babysat. Most were glad to find something for him to earn $ when he was staight with them.

how can i setup a webserver in my home using dsl line?

using fedora core 4 for my webserver.

And it may be handy to get a dynamic DNS address from dynip or some other such dynamic dns provider.\n\nOR you could get a static IP address from your internet provider and get a REAL DNS entry that points to that IP address.\n\nApache is a good way to go. Well worth learning too. There is lots of documentation on the web (see google or something) on how to install it. I have installed apache before, and just use search engines to find good guides that walk me through it.
