how does computer work?
|
A computer is an information-processing machine that works by converting all kinds of information into binary numbers (ones and zeros) and then using simple mathematics to make decisions about, or to rearrange, those numbers. There are two things essential to understanding the basics of how a computer works. One is that a computer treats any type of information (not only numbers but also letters, words, dates, and so on) as if it consisted simply of binary ones and zeros. For example, a computer can translate the letter “A” typed into its keyboard into a string of ones and zeros, such as 1000001. One reason to do this is that once in binary form, the information can be stored and moved about more easily.

Why do people want to take Christ out of Christmas when happy holidays could mean the forth of July?
|
Because not everyone is Christian. "Happy Holidays" is just a way to wish everyone well whether they celebrate Christmas, Hannukah, or Kwanzaa. It can also be meant to include New Year's Day along with Christmas.\n\nEven many people who celebrate Christmas do so in an entirely secular fashion, complete with Santa, the reindeer, Frosty, tree, and presents. Whether the Christians like it or not, Christmas is and has been Christ-optional in our culture for a long time now.

curing warts?
|
The goal of wart treatment is to destroy or remove the wart without creating scar tissue, which can be more painful than the wart itself. Some options include: over-the-counter wart removal kits (thos eband-aid like things from Dr Scholls), freeze them off (frozen nitrogen), or lasering them off. The last two require you to see your doctor. Please talk to your doctor if they are extremely large (more than 1 cm diameter or extremely painful as they may be even larger than you see on the surface.

Does your body keep a running tally of sleep?
|
Does the human body keep track of sleep overages and defecits over time? If so; is your body capable of remembering these over the span of a lifetime? If so; would this mean that one could "stockpile" sleep? Thanks for your input; and if you know of any good websites regarding sleep, let me know.
|
Yes and no. You can not build a "stockpile" of sleep. However, your body can accumulate "sleep debt." The amount of sleep each person needs varies. In addition, how your body addresses it's sleep debt depends on the circumstances.\n\nLet's say, for example, you need 8 hours per night. If you have zero sleep debt, you will not be able to sleep more than 8 hours. But if you sleep for only 7 hours one night, you add 1 hour to your sleep debt. If you do this Sunday through Thursday night, you will have 5 hours of sleep debt.\n\nThe catch is, most people can not relieve themselves of more than about an hour of sleep debt per night. So, even if you sleep for 10 or 11 hours on Friday and Saturday nights, you would most likely not make up for your lack of sleep all week. The quality of sleep diminishes with each sleep cycle, so those last couple of hours aren't nearly as effective as the first few.\n\nMost people are carrying around sleep debt. In fact, it is healthy to have a small amount of sleep debt (say, 5-10 hours). If you have too little, it is difficult to fall asleep at night. If you have the right amount of sleep debt, you should not feel tired during the day but it should only take you 10-15 minutes to fall asleep at night.\n\nHowever, generally speaking, there is a cap to the amount of sleep debt you can accumulate. If I remember correctly, it is at about 50 hours or so. The average person is walking around with about 25 hours of sleep debt or so. Many sleep specialists believe that a large portion of auto accidents have a root cause of lack of sleep, but it is difficult to accurately measure this. 50 hours of sleep debt has a similar impact to your ability to function as if you had just finished off a couple of beers.\n\nThere's an excellent book on the subject called "The Promise of Sleep"

What does 2x²-5x+2 factor out to be?
|
You can use what is called the Master Product Method to factor this and other quadratic trinomials.\n\nFor something of the form ax^2 + bx + c, the master product is a*c. In this example, a is 2, b is -5 and c is 2, so the master product is 2*2 = 4. Now you must find two numbers which multiply to give you the master product of 4, but add to give the middle coefficient of -5.\n\nThis requires a bit of trial and error, but you should be able to quickly discover that the numbers -1 and -4 will work since -1*-4 = 4 and -1+-4 = -5. Now you rewrite the the entire trinomial replacing the middle term -5x with the equivalent -1x - 4x:\n\n 2x^2 - 5x + 2\n= 2x^2 - 1x - 4x + 2\n\nWe factor by grouping the first pair and last pair together and pulling out what's common to each pair:\n\n= (2x^2 - 1x) + (-4x + 2)\n= x(2x - 1) -2(2x - 1)\n\nNotice that (2x-1) appears in the factorization of both pairs. We finish by factoring out the (2x-1) to get\n\n= (x - 2)(2x -1)

Ear canal got dried, not producing wax anymore, I hear echos in the canal when sounds come in. Infection?
|
I felt as if water trapped inside. So I used cotton but I felt water was there. Or I thought it might be wax blocking but not like that as the doctor I visited said. And the sounds started to echo inside my ear so I hear a sound twice, one real, one echo. I visited a coctor and used the precribed medicine but my ear got dried and no wax coming out anymore. Now it's still the same even though I'm using the prescription- oxymetazoline hydrochloride. I feel better sometimes when it is inside but I feel the problem is still the same. I will have to visit to the clinic again. I feel uncomfortable.
|
It is a little unclear from your question why you're using oxymetazoline for your ear. Although not unheard of in the ear, oxymetazoline (Afrin) is usually used intranasally. Are you using it in your ear or in your nose?\n\nIf it's the latter, and you've been using it for more than three days, you should stop.\n\nYou need to see your doctor again. This doesn't SOUND like an infection, especially without pain or fever, but it is impossible to tell without looking. Ask your doctor to refer you to an otolaryngologist.\n\nThis answer does not constitute official medical advice and should not be used as a substitute for seeing a licensed medical professional.

Are there any woman out there that still try to be the perfect woman?
|
I am a woman in my mid twenties and I was wondering if there are any woman like myself that take the time to satisfy their man by doing the little things that our moms used to do for our dads? Such as a meal, a back rub, staying faithful and honest, taking the time to listen to them (even when it's about something that you don't know anything about) If not what are your reasons? I think that a man needs as much attention that some woman demand.
|
My mother raised me to be very domesticated and in my household dinner is always on the table when my man comes home, sports are on his tv, and his bath water is drawn. Doing these simple household chores makes me feel good because I know that I am satisfying the man I love. Because this is my regular routine I usually dont have to worry about not getting the special treatment because trust me he notices when I stop cooking!!!!!

i read this book called Mama Gena's Guide...it is your answer!!! it even has the part in the book that talks about your issue. it says that to get your man back, you have to show him that you are happy by yourself. it takes the pressure off of him and makes him interested in you. like, when he calls, say, i am so busy! i had the most fun day ever! (he doesn't want to come back to a depressed woman...even if you are, fake it when you talk to him). this will make you seem mysterious and more interesting. then, flirt him back to you!!! tell him you want him to come over ;) then just act like you are the most fun girl in the world. men think it is easy to make someone happy that is already happy. \n\nget the book, you won't regret it!!! :) much love to you in this hard time.

what is RSS??? which is writen in web sits .......................?
|
RSS is a family of XML file formats for web syndication used by news websites and weblogs. They are used to provide items containing short descriptions of web content together with a link to the full version of the content. This information is delivered as an XML file called RSS feed, webfeed, RSS stream, or RSS channel.\n\nThe acronym stands for one of the following standards:\n\nRich Site Summary (RSS 0.91) \nRDF Site Summary (RSS 0.9 and 1.0) \nReally Simple Syndication (RSS 2.0) \n\nUsage\nRSS is widely used by the weblog community to share the latest entries' headlines or their full text, and even attached multimedia files. (See podcasting, broadcatching and MP3 blogs.)\n\nThe first online news site to use RSS feeds was Variety.com in June of 2002. In 2004 and 2005, after several years of use by early adopters, use of RSS spread to many major news organizations, including Reuters and the Associated Press. Under various usage agreements, providers allow other websites to incorporate their "syndicated" headline or headline-and-short-summary feeds.\n\nA program known as a feed reader or aggregator can check RSS-enabled webpages on behalf of a user and display any updated articles that it finds. It is now common to find RSS feeds on major web sites, as well as many smaller ones.\n\nClient-side readers and aggregators are typically constructed as standalone programs or extensions to existing programs like web browsers. See List of news aggregators for a list of clients for various operating systems.\n\nWeb-based feed readers and news aggregators require no software installation and make the user's "feeds" available on any computer with Web access. Some aggregators syndicate (combine) RSS feeds into new feeds, e.g. take all football related items from several sports feeds and provide a new football feed. There are also search engines for RSS feeds like Feedster, Technorati, Pluck or Plazoo.\n\nRSS feeds are typically linked to with an orange rectangle with the letters XML () or RSS ().\n\n\nHistory\nRDF Site Summary (RSS) was originally designed by Dan Libby of Netscape in 1999 for use on the My Netscape portal. But RDF tools were in short supply, which caused it to be stripped of much of its semantic feature set. While the format was technically valid RDF, it dropped many of the features (such as namespaces) necessary for actual RDF use [1] (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/rss-dev/message/239).\n\nIn the meantime, Dave Winer of UserLand Software had already designed his own XML syndication format for use on his Scripting News weblog, which he had been using since 1997 [2] (http://davenet.scripting.com/1997/12/15/scriptingNewsInXML).\n\nWiner began working with Netscape, and many of the ScriptingNews syndication format's features were incorporated into the next revision of RSS. The new RSS 0.91 was renamed Rich Site Summary and dropped the pretense of using RDF. This resulted in a simpler XML format that was incompatible with the earlier version.\n\nSome time after this, Netscape's interest in RSS disappeared, and UserLand took over as de facto maintainers. UserLand released its own version of RSS 0.91 with several minor incompatible changes.\n\nIn 2000 RSS was split into two development paths[3] (http://www.xmlhack.com/read.php?item=621), one that favored modularization, and one that believed that the complexity of namespaces should be avoided.\n\nIn August of 2000, a group of developers organized in the rss-dev (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/rss-dev/) mailing list published a proposed specification for RSS 1.0 (http://purl.org/rss/1.0/) [4] (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/syndication/message/372). This format reintroduced the originally intended RDF and was designed to allow for extension through modules (http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/). While it is often stated that RSS 1.0 is derived from and compatible with RSS 0.90, the two formats' use of different namespaces has been cited as a pro

What is "sociology of law" where can I read about it?
|
Could u help me with writers, websites, major institutions etc? Thanks
|
The sociology of law is the study of everything about the law that is not its actual text. Let me explain: when most people think of law, they think of the written down rules that government makes, courts decide, and police and regulatory agencies enforce. One way of looking at law is that it is a set of rules that courts and police impose on people. This is not completely how sociologists understand it, though. What sociologists of law do is to take a broader picture of the social and political processes that surround the relationship between law and society. Some questions they have asked is: what is the function of law in society? How do laws get made and who do they benefit? Under what conditions do people obey law and when and why do they evade it? When people in social movements litigate, does it help their cause? Why do people decide to litigate and when do they resolve their conflicts in other ways? What is the role of lawyers in shaping the trajectory of disputes? What do people think law is? How does the understanding people have about law shape how they understand their rights, the actions they can take, and what their relationships to other people are? \n\nWeber, Durkheim, and Parsons (major sociologists) were all interested in understanding the relationship between law and society. Though the soc of law is a subfield of sociology, it is more foundational to the works of major theorists than many mainstream sociologists seem to recognize. \n\nIf you want to get an overview of this field, three textbooks may be helpful: *Connecting Law and Society* by Robert L. Kidder, *Law, Order, and Power* by William J. Chambliss and Robert Seidman, and *The Sociology of Law: An Introduction* by Roger Cotterrell. Also, some major articles are contained in a reader edited by Richard L. Abel called *The Law and Society Reader*. If you have access to a university library, you should check out the journals *Law and Society Review* and *Annual Review of Law and Social Science*.\n\nOther notable sociologists of law include Marc Galanter, Lauren Edelman, Robert C. Ellickson, Stewart Macaulay, Susan Silbey, Patricia Ewick, Austin Sarat, Kim Lane Scheppele, and Philip Selznick. This is an abbreviated list and is by no means comprehensive, but it should get you started.

what is hyperconjugation?
|
in chemistry
|
In the formalism that separates bonds into and types, hyperconjugation is the interaction of -bonds (e.g. C-H, C-C, etc.) with a network. This interaction is customarily illustrated by contributing structures, e.g. for toluene (below), sometimes said to be an example of "heterovalent" or "sacrificial hyperconjugation", so named because the contributing structure contains one two-electron bond less than the normal Lewis formula for toluene \n\n\n\nAt present, there is no evidence for sacrificial hyperconjugation in neutral hydrocarbons. \n\nThe concept of hyperconjugation is also applied to carbenium ions and radicals, where the interaction is now between -bonds and an unfilled or partially filled or p-orbital. A contributing structure illustrating this for the tert-butyl cation is: \n\n\n\nThis latter example is sometimes called an example of "isovalent hyperconjugation" (the contributing structure containing the same number of two-electron bonds as the normal Lewis formula). \n\nBoth structures shown on the right hand side are also examples of "double bond- no-bond resonance". \n\nc yhis page, please.

when did microsoft release Internet Explorer 6?
|
As I was doing the daily web browsing rounds the last couple days I've come across some articles on Internet Explorer 7 and its features. Which got me thinking? What's taken so long? When did IE 6 orginally come out?
|
Version 6 was released on August 27, 2001, a few weeks before Windows XP. This version included DHTML enhancements, content restricted inline frames, and better support of CSS level 1, DOM level 1 and SMIL 2.0. The MSXML engine was also updated to version 3.0. Other new features included a new version of the IEAK, Media bar, Windows Messenger integration, fault collection, automatic image resizing, P3P, and a new look-and-feel that is in line with the style of Windows XP.\n\nOn February 15, 2005, Microsoft Chairman Bill Gates announced that the new version of its browser will be released at the RSA Conference 2005 in San Francisco [3]. The decision to update the browser occurred in the wake of a decline in the use of Internet Explorer for the first time. Microsoft also stated that Internet Explorer 7 will only be available for Windows XP SP2 and later, including Windows Server 2003 SP1 and Windows Vista. The first beta version of the browser was released on July 27, 2005 for technical testing, and a first public preview version of Internet Explorer 7 (Beta 2 preview) was released on January 31, 2006. Verison 7 is intended to defend users from phishing as well as deceptive or malicious software, and also features full user control of ActiveX, and better security framework. It includes important bug fixes, enhancements to support the web standards, improvements in HTML 4.01/CSS 2, Tabbed Browsing, Tab preview/ management, and web feeds reader. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Explorer

What is a nucleosome?
|
A nucleosome is the fundamental repeating subunit of eukaryotic DNA, and is made up of DNA and histone proteins. It is found in the cell nucleus in eukaryotes. All chromatin (except for that packaged in the sperm nucleus) consists of nucleosomes. Nucleosomes can be seen with an electron microscope as bead-like structures along the DNA.\n\nThe histones make up the central core particle of the nucleosome. The DNA is wrapped around this protein complex in 1.6 turns, comprising about 145 base pairs. Together with the DNA linking two nucleosomes, there are about 200 bps of DNA per nucleosome.\n\nNucleosomes are involved in processes ranging from compaction of DNA to transcriptional control, and appear to be major carriers of epigenetically inherited information as well. Repeating nucleosomes with intervening "linker" DNA form the 10-nm-fiber, known descriptively as "beads on a string", and have a packing ratio of ~6, compared to "free" DNA (per nm length). A chain of nucleosomes can be arranged in a 30-nm-fiber, a compacted structure (thought to be a helical solenoid, a zigzag ribbon structure, a superbead, or having no regular structure) with a packing ratio of ~40. The H1 histone stabilizes this structure. Beyond 30 nm fiber the structure of chromatin is poorly understood, but it is classically suggested that the 30 nm fiber is arranged into loops along a central protein scaffold to form transcriptionally active euchromatin. Further compaction leads to transcriptionally inactive heterochromatin.

Is jiminy cricket a cricket or grasshopper??
|
I have never seen a green cricket so what in the world is going on there...
|
Jiminy is actuall an artist conception of a criket. Jiminy's name was chosen by Walt Disney. Before Walt selected Jiminy Cricket as the character's name, the phrase was used as an exclamation denoting surprise or bewilderment. According to the Oxford English Dictionary, the phrase has been around since 1848. In "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs," made over two years before "Pinocchio," the dwarfs exclaim, "Jiminy Crickets!" when they return to their cottage and find the lights on.

roles of nurse in assisting the nutritional needs of client?
|
Nurses are typically a laisaion between the other professionals and the patient.\n\nThey gather info and carry out orders of the doc and therapists, and that would probably include a nutritionist.\n\nAs info gatherers, the nurse would probably have access to a lot of info that could affect the diet of a patient. Knowing if I/O's are good (I/O means in/out, hydration and eating/elimination). Knowing if there is need for more or less fiber, supplemental shakes or vitamins, IV hydration, change in fat, sodium, cholesterol, caffeine, etc intake, if the patient can chew or chokes on their food or drink they may need it pureed or thickened.\n\nNurses as in RN's don't probably do much in terms of serving or feeding the patient, there are other people who can do that if needed, but well informed nurses will know what's up with the patient's diet and how it fits in with the overall health of the patient and they will be responsible for communicating this to a doc, who will recommend any changes or help the nutritionist/dietician decide what is needed.

how to pass toefl?
|
1. Make friends with native speakers or those who don't have foreign accents.\n2. Watch TV or any show together with English subtitles. Most TV shows have caption options (turn them on). Associating speech with text will help you remember spelling and grammar.\n3. Read English books.\n4. Start writing a journal or simply your thoughts in English. This will help you get comfortable expressing your thoughts in written form.\n\nI've heard that TOEFL is not all about good grammar. Some friends of mine have bad English grammar, but they still passed the test because they are able to write and communicate their thoughts coherently. Good luck!

Virgin can be defined so many ways so lets make it ulitimate virgin. Has not done ANYTHING... anything means anything... so can you be Gay? Reason I ask is due to thread:\nhttp://www.sprnch.com/forums/showthread.php?t=6381&highlight=gay+virgin
|
You absolutely can. Some people don't understand that there's a difference between having the homosexual trait and practicing homosexual behavior.\n\nA homosexual is a person whose instinctual knowledge makes them much more likely to be attracted to persons of the same gender instead of the opposite gender.\n\nHomosexual children usually start having feelings toward people of the same gender around puberty, the same time that heterosexuals start finding the opposite gender attractive.\n\nThis is why it's possible to be gay and a virgin.

Is Scientology the biggest scam of all time?
|
In his own spiritual life, Tom Cruise has continued to climb the "Bridge to Total Freedom," Scientology's path to enlightenment. International Scientology News, a church magazine, reported last year that the actor had embarked on one of the highest levels of training, "OT VII" — for Operating Thetan VII.\n\nAt these higher levels — and at a potential cost of hundreds of thousands of dollars — Scientologists learn Hubbard's secret theory of human suffering, which he traces to a galactic battle waged 75 million years ago by an evil tyrant named Xenu.\n\nAccording to court documents made public by The Times in the 1980s, Hubbard espoused the belief that Xenu captured the souls, or thetans, of enemies and electronically implanted false concepts in them to keep them confused about his dirty work. The goal of these advanced courses is to become aware of the trauma and free of its effects.

Is Scientology posing a real threat to Christian America or summink? This is the third or fourth paranoid question about that organisation in a week!\n\nIf they're crackpots let them carry on cracking pots. \n\nYou can ask a similar question about Christian (blind) faith. How on earth does a Jewish guy being murdered by the Romans on a cross save humanity either then or now - especially as Hebrew scripture forbids (1) human sacrifice and (2) the deification of a human sacrifice?\n\nSome Christians find the real answer to that question and carry on believing in their faith. This is because faith is often the replacement or removal of rational reasoning, facts, evidence, and logic.\n\nWhy is Scientology being held up to higher standards than other blind faiths?

|
Sequence profiling tools in bioinformatics refer to all those software tools (web-based/downloadable) that provide a brief overview on all related information about an input sequence.\n\nThe advent of post-genomics era has given rise to a range of web based tools and software to handle the deluge of biological information. A simple web-search returns any number of such services and software tools ranging from the popular public domains e.g. NCBI, ExPASy, Ensembl, PDB etc to private research group sites e.g. eF-site, Dipole moment server, SuperPose, REBASE. However, most of these remain obscure/under-explored to a bench-top molecular biologist who most often would like to quickly know which record in the BLAST report is useful for further analysis (given that the first few hits are already known) OR like to have a guess at what would a newly found ORF look like after translation.

|
There are a couple of different famous Massons ...\n\nMasson, Frédéric, 1847–1923, French historian, an authority on Napoleon I and his family. His work is uncritically laudatory with regard to Napoleon himself; his admiration, however, did not deter his severe indictment of Napoleon's relatives in Napoléon et sa famille (13 vol., 1897–1919). Among his books translated into English are Napoleon at Home (1894), Napoleon, Lover and Husband (1894), and Napoleon and His Coronation (1911). Other writings include, in collaboration with Guido Biagi, Napoléon inconnu (1895), containing unpublished manuscripts of Napoleon and valuable notes on his early life.\n\nMasson, André (äNdrā' mäsôN') , 1896–1987, French painter and graphic artist. An exponent of surrealism until 1928, Masson developed “automatic writing”—spontaneous linear expressions of his personal mythology. After World War II he painted superb landscapes in Aix-en-Provence. His Meditation on an Oak Leaf and other works are in the Museum of Modern Art, New York City.

Why did Great Britain economy fall behind after the first world war?
|
British post world war I economy.
|
Like any other nation, a war is costly and, during teh war, production is high and productivity is better than it was before. After the war, there is less need for production (since artillery and war materials are not as necessary). The veterans from the war also come back to the workforce, and the backlash would result in unemployment, whether it be for the veterans or the current workers. Also, due to the German air raids over britain, the cost for reconstruction would hinder other areas of productivity that would boost teh economy. The lack of demand over luxury goods, since people need money to buy other things like food, would lessen still since the people may fear losing their jobs. The overall world economy after world war I was devastating, not only in Great Britain.

Dallas made no such 'goofs' as the bumbling Chiefs did!\n\nIt is true that if it were not for the fumble (made by the Chiefs offense) and the lack of coverage downfield (made by the Chiefs defense) that KC would have won the day.\n\nBut the score is not set by fantasy, but by reality.... And the reality is that KC made fatal mistakes, and that Dallas was able to capitalize on them!

does piercing your nipples interfer with breastfeeding last in life?
|
It should not interfere BUT it may change the sensitivity of your nipples when it is time to breastfeed your baby. Babies do suck hard. (speaking from experience with four sons)

Is insulting a police officer illegal?
|
Insulting a police officer is not illegal. It is illegal to threaten an officer. If you plan to insult an officer, don't do it in a manner the officer can percieve as a threat at all. And don't do it while doing other illegal activity, or after you are arrested.

How old would the universe appear to a particle traveling at 99.99999 % of the speed of light?
|
Well its not the time of the universe that appears to change, its the age of the particle itself that changes. In this case, in the 13.5 billion years the universe has been around, only 6.04 million years will have gone by to the particle.\n\nLet me explain how i got it: the formula is t'=t/sqrt(1-c^2/v^2) where t' is the time for an outside observer, t is the time for the particle moving at the velocity, c is the speed of light, v is the velocity of the particle, and ^2 means squared and sqrt means square root.\n\nthe universe is estimated to be 13.7 billion years old, assuming that this particle has been traveling at this speed since the beginning, that would make our t' 13.7 billion, and we are solving for t. Now, v would just be .9999999 times the speed of light which is 299792458 m/s. this means that the velocity of the particle is 299792428 m/s. plugging into the formula:\n\n13.5 x 10^9 = t/sqrt(1-299792458^2/299792428^2) which would make t equal to 6.04 x 10^6 meaning that the amount of time that has past for this particle would only be 6.04 million years. (note: you need a graphing calculator, or maybe a scientific one) to actually get an answer because when you divide v^2/c^2 you get a number so insanely close to one that unless the calculator has a LOT of places, it will just say 1) Usually time dialation does not work to this extreme because we usually sayy like 95% the speed of light or something, and you have a lot of 9's there after the decimal. The more you put, the less the time will be.

Should New Orleans be rezoned as off limits and rebuilt somewhere else?
|
Does it make sense to rebuild it?
|
It does not make sense to rebuild New Orleans in its current location. There is not enough land mass to last the next 5 years no less the next 500. As to relocation would you call it New New Orleans or Orleans III? As to it being the soul of the nation, people are the soul of our nation not places.

do you think it would be funny to see an old lady that cant walk fast have to go to the bathroom really bad?
|
no, i work in a nursing home and that is not something that is funny. People deserve to be treated equally. You wouldnt want to be laughed at if it were you. Imagine that lady as your mom or grandmother.
