Most likely you could have success by looking at small US or European companies that would like to enter the Indian market but are afraid to do so because of distance in culture and geography.

Why can't I access one particular web site. The ISP says its because there are more than 5 hops. Cant be.?
I can reach every other site, even those where tracert says there are 20 hops. I feel that I am being given the run around.
If your ISP can't route more than 5 hops, drop your ISP and find one who knows what it's doing. My ISP takes more than five hops just to get outside their own routers.\n\nIn regards to being unable to access a particular website, you'll need to provide more detail as to the nature of the problem before it can be answered (i.e. server not available, browser timeout, error message etc.).

Do you say happy holidays as not to offend any body?
Does it offend you if someone tells you merry x-mas instead of hapy holidays? Most all religions are celebrating the birth of Christ but they have there own way of doing it. So if somebody told you happy hanuka and you celebrate x-mas would it really offend you?
You know, i've seen this question many times on Y! answers and often within the media. And, to date, i still say the same thing:\n\n1. Saying Happy Holidays is being inclusive of all faiths, and persons.\n2. Saying Happy Holidays does not mean that christmas doesn't exist. It means that you should have a happy holiday for whatever holiday you celebrate.\n\n3. Christ was not born on Christmas, he was born in March or April (dependant on what calendar you look at).\n4. Putting Christ back in Christmas is perhaps the most idiotic thing i've ever heard. Not only did this holiday start as a Pagan Festivle, Christ wasn't even close to being born on this day.\n\nIf you have a problem being inclusive, perhaps you shouldn't celebrate the holiday. The spirit of christmas is to be giving, to work for harmony and peace on that one day, and do our best to have an enjoyable time in an otherwise harrowing time. Non christians still celebrate christmas. Many other's celebrate other holidays within that season and day.\n\nI personally celebrate christmas, but moreso the traditional yule celebration. And, i still say happy holidays to whomever is concerned.\n\nBeing inclusive is very important. If you want to exclude non christians from the holiday, then you should make it illegal to sell christmas trees, ornimants, wrapping paper, ect to anyone except churches, and churches should pass such items out :) I doubt, for a single minute, that this type of action will take place; christmas means too much for retailers in our economy :) So, since it can't be that way, try and be a bit more inclusive eh :)\n\nI twinge, yes, whenever anyone wishes me a merry christmas, and then spouts off christian bias. It offends me because i'm not a christian. I don't turn to the same person and tell them about the goddess or the harvest, so what's the point of being so rude like that :)

What gift do I give someone who does an $800 job for free?
This was a typing job, so the person did a lot of manual labor and spent a great deal of time doing this for me.
Well, since you saved 800.00 that you were planning to spend, you're 800.00 richer. This is not the time to get thrifty. I would suggest at least 200-300$. If you don't feel comfortable giving them cash, you can get them a gift card. If they are into home improvement, a Lowe's or Home Depot card would be appreciated. Plus they'll remember you if you need any more free/ reduced jobs done in the future.

Guys and/or Gals, do you also check out Camel Toes all day long and rate them?
Are they exciting or disgusting to you?
The female body is a work or art, a creation of our higher power as a gift to man. Even the savege & covetous nature of man leads his eyes to the things he wants. perpetuation of the species is locked in the genes. The nature of the beast. I still hold women in the highest regards and often find myself entranced by their beauty. To stare and judge the appearance of their finer points is a rite of passage. We should stand tall and proud and pay homage to the blessd' camel toe!

Can you cry under water???
It is possible to cry under water. However, it may not be noticable without some sort of goggles or mask.\n\nDuring the act of crying, an excess of water and salt (the same liquid that normally coats your eyeballs) in excreted (produced) in your tear ducts around your eyes. Outside the water, you notice the buildup as it falls down your face. However, in the water you do not experience the noticable tear because it is dissipated into the water almost as fast as it is made.\n\nBelieve it or not, your body actually attempts to sweat in hot water (ie, hot tubs, etc). However, you do not notice this sweat because it becomes part of the water as soon as it reaches the skin surface. Tears under water act in the same way.

Would a fly without wings be called a walk?
The legs of a fly have a primary role of helping the fly to land and lift off, and also move about a little when its not flying. If the fly would not have wings, it would be able to move futher on its legs, but the mobility would be severly restricted because the legs haven't been used in that sense before. This fact is confirmed from experimentation done in around 2003, where a genetically mutated fly which didn't grow any wings tried to move solely on its legs.

Are there other active geysers in the world besides Yellowstone's Old Faithful?
Here is an excerpt from a great reference on Geysers:\n\nA geyser is a hot spring that periodically erupts, throwing water into the air. Though that sounds simple, geysers are extremely rare. As of December 2005, the total of active geysers on earth number approximately 1000.\n\nConditions must be just right for geysers to occur. Three components must be present for geysers to exist: an abundant supply of water, an intense source of heat, and unique plumbing. Water is common in nature, heat can come from volcanic activity, but the plumbing is critical. For water to be thrown into the air, geyser plumbing must be water- and pressure-tight. Geyser scientists and observers have identified the volcanic rock rhyolite as being particularly effective at hosting geysers. Rhyolite is high in silica, which can deposit a water-tight seal along the walls of the geyser plumbing. Most of the geyser fields in the world are found in rhyolite or similar silica-laden rocks (like ignimbrite). The mixture of water, volcanic heat, and plumbing is exceptional at Yellowstone National Park. Over one-half of the world's geysers are located within the park's boundaries.\n\nIt is increasingly apparent that geysers must possess a fourth characteristic to exist: remoteness. Within the last fifty years, volcanic heat and abundant water have been increasingly harnessed to turn turbines for electricity production. Geothermal energy can be produced at any site where volcanic heat and water are readily available. Unfortunately, geyser fields are ideal for this type of energy production. Geothermal energy production steals the geysers' water, and destroys geyser activity (for example, Wairakei, New Zealand). A growing threat to geysers stems from mineral extraction. Hot groundwater may precipitate gold or other valuable minerals, and extraction may require removing the geyser plumbing itself. For example, in May 2003, mineral exploration at South America’s second largest geyser field (Puchuldiza, Chile), caused cessation in the field’s geysers. Few realize the actual rarity of geysers. As a result, many geyser fields have been destroyed and many others are being threatened. \n\nLocations\nYellowstone National Park (USA)\nValley of Geysers, Kamchatka Peninsula (Siberia)\nEl Tatio (Chile)\nNorth Island, New Zealand\nIceland\nBeowawe Geyser Field, Nevada (USA)\nSteamboat Springs, Nevada (USA)\nUmnak Island, Alaska (USA)\n\nOther World Geysers\n\nAt least a dozen additional locations worldwide are known to contain between one and fourteen geysers. Learn more about world geyser fields at: (http://www.johnstonsarchive.net/geysers/geyserct.html).\n\nUnited States' Lesser Fields\nPhotographs of the United States' lesser geyser fields can be found at: (http://www.alanglennon.com/geysers/lesser).\n\nCold-Water Geysers\n\nApproximately a dozen cold-water geysers exist in the world. Most of these are erupting man-made boreholes. Information on cold-water geysers can be found at http://www.alanglennon.com/crystalgeyser.

why in dry cell , cathode is marked '+' while in car battery anode is marked '+'?
Polarity of electricity was specified long ago by Benjamin Frankline before there was a practical means of detecting electrons. He could have tossed a coin to specify + or -. The thought was that electricity would flow (like water) from + (high) to - (low). Unfortunately it was discovered that electrons actually flow from - to + in an external wire, but it was too late and we live with convention now. In a way it really doesn't matter as long as all circuit designers agree on the convention since we can not see electrons; unless you are designing a vacuum tube (etc.) where electrons must physically flow from a heated element that boils them off to a grounded plate that collects them. Cathode is normally the negative pole.

Do penis pumps work?
Yup.. It's pure physics. Form a seal around the base of the penis and reduce the pressure inside a cavity, and blood will be drawn from the body to satisfy the vacuum. It makes the penis hard for awhile, but shortly after removal when air pressure equalizes, the blood will begin to return normally. Yes, there is some 'restriction' of return caused by the engorgement, so you might have a few minutes of recreational happiness. Just don't do it too much - only until you need glasses, okay?

What should be the role in the globalized world of subsaharian african countries?
Full participation. Much like other "underdeveloped" nations, and borderline "developed" nations, that are integrating themselves as much as possible (India in particular), the subsaharan african countries should figure out where they can participate in the global economy. The big question they must ask, and answer, is what resources do they have to offer that can compete/participate?\n\nI also feel the industrialized nations (mostly Western), need to adjust their attitudes toward international companies opening facilities in underdeveloped nations in general. While exploitation in any form is unacceptable, there needs to be a different definition of exploitation in some cases, especially in countries where poverty (and likely death) is the only option. Is it really exploitation when you offer an individual employment at four or five times the local going rate? If I were in that situation, I'd say no. However, paying a rate on par with Western standards offers these companies no incentive to move into these nations hindering economic development. It can also severely upset the economics of a region as, suddenly, there are large influxes of cash, which can cause spiraliing inflation, making matters worse for those without these (relatively speaking) high-paying jobs.

Sexual health, ect, is boosted by wearing boxers. Mind you this does not include BOXER BREIFS, only just normal boxers.\n\nBreifs, and thongs, and other skin tight undergarments, ect, can restrict the amount and quality of sperm within the sack.\n\nIn general it is healthier to wear boxers even for the bacterial and sweat issue. Breifs, ect, can harbor bacteria, and sweat, keeping it close to the body, causing chafing, minor infections and jock itch.\n\nBoxers, ect, don't allow such a broad area for sweat and bacteria to bind.

If you received the pell grant by filling out the FAFSA and then decide not to go to college for a semester you don't have to pay the money back as long as you don't enroll yourself in any classes. If you already enrolled but the semester hasn't started yet contact the college and drop that semester to avoid having to pay back your pell grant. If the classes have already started, but you can still drop the classes, then do so as soon as possible. If the classes have already started, and it is too late to drop the classes, you will have to pay a portion of your pell grant back to the government. You can still withdraw from the classes to avoid getting an "F" in every class, but since the deadline to drop the classes has passed your transcript will still show a "W" in every class, which is considered as failing as far as your financial aid is concerned. Your best bet is to talk to your college financial aid office to see what options are available.

how do i pass gre with more than 1500 score in 30 days.?
The newest revisions to the GRE puts the maximum score at 1600, there is no longer an analytical section - the essay question that replaced it doesn't factor into your goal of 1500 - it is scored seperately, so you would have to be near perfect in both quantitative and verbal, you would probably have to get at least in the 98th percentile for Verbal and the 80th percentile for math. I studied for 11 months, and got a 1300 - I did get in the 94th percentile for verbal, but mathematics is my weak point - always has been. So unless you don't have any weak points in math or verbal, you will not likely get near a 1500, especially in just 30 days. One trick to up your verbal score is to memorize about 500 vocabulary words, that should up your verbal by at least 100 or more points - at least 40% of the questions are on vocabulary. Use flashcards. As for math, the bulk of it is algebra and geometry. Good luck.

"QUEEF", "pussy fart", "vart", and "'Heaven's Biscuit'" are all slang terms which refer to vaginal flatulence. ("Queef" derived from the sound.)\n\nVaginal flatulence (flatus vaginalis in Latin) is an emission of air from the vagina, often during or after sexual intercourse or (less often) cunnilingus or anal sex. The sound is somewhat comparable to flatulence from the anus, but does not involve waste gasses, and thus has no associated odor.

It's usually found in places like this, where its "slick" surface facilitates flow of fluids.This epithelium is called mesothelium (as it is derived from mesoderm) when it is found in certain locations within the body. These include the linings of the peritoneal, pleural and pericardial cavities. Other places simple squamous epithelium can be found include; the glomerulus of the kidney, the walls of capillaries, and the alveoli of the lungs, to name a few. Here they are forming a thin sheet-like layer which allows for minimal resistance to diffusion

CAN ANY 1 TELL ME THE SIMTOMS OF "HIVAIDS"?
There is sometimes a flu-like illness when someone is infected, when they are going through what is called seroconversion, which is when the body is developing antibodies in response to the infection. A person can have virus in their body before there are enough antibodies to result in a positive test. Most of the time there are no symptoms at all.\n\nIf there is any chance of being infected, a person should get an HIV test. There are many clinics that will do this free, anonymously, and counseling and treatment are available.\n\nSomeone can be HIV positive and able to pass the infection to others for many years without having any symptoms.

How do we create a free website?
Your ISP may have already provided you with the space for a website as part of your subscription. Check your tech support to find out and find out what you need to do to access it.\n\nThey may have a "wizard" that'll walk you through the setup. If so, not much to learn. If not, you'll need to pick up skills with html and file transfer. There are various cost programs to perform these tasks, but they can be done for free as well, by using programs that are already on your computer. In Windows, Notepad and Internet Explorer are sufficient. You provide the skill in using them.\n\nGeoCities (already mentioned) will provide banner-supported websites with wizards, as will FreeServers (http://freeservers.com), but it's not as much fun.\n\nYou can find everything you need to know on the About dot com site for personal webpages.

why in semiconduter assembly area maintain particular temp(55to65f)@humidity(35to65rh).?
The short answer, is worker comfort and machine operation. Semiconductors are assembled in "clean rooms" where personnel must wear special clothes to prevent dust from collecting on sensitive equipment. It has been said that most of the dust in a house is often dead skin, etc.\n\nSensitive equipment must be manufactured to very close tolerances which could be exceeded with uncontrolled temperature and humidity changes, thus ruining expensive product. Therefore, buyers and sellers of equipment must agree on specified conditions such that if equipment performs to spec at the factory it will perform satisfactorily at the semiconductor assembly plant. Air conditioning can be used to maintain steady clean conditions at spec temperature and humidity. Remember that too little humidity may promote static electricity that can damage semiconductors and too much humidity can promote corrosion and the growth of molds. Too high a temperature may prevent equipment from losing heat generated during production and too low a temperature may promote condensation, especially from body perspiration. Hope that helps.

Which one is better - AMD Turion64 or Intel Pentium 4?
I am looking to buy a laptop and puzzled which one to buy - the one with AMD Turion64 processor or one with Intel Pentium 4 processor?
The reading that I've done recently indicated to me that the Centrino is still the best for battery life/price/performance. That in mind, Centrinos aren't P4's, and the P4's have worse battery life and are much hotter. A more fair comparison would be the AMD Athlon 3200+ chip laptops vs. a P4. (both are desktop chips)\n\nI'm a real AMD fan and I was really trying hard to justify getting a Turion but the only ones available in stores were the ML-xx models that use more power and are slower than the corresponding Centrino chips. I think the Turion has a lot more legs in it longer term, but we're going to have to wait another year or so before the better chips are more available for general consumption. Also, at least for now, if you want to run another OS on it than Windows, you'll likely find better support for Intel stuff especially the Centrino chipsets because the chipsets are all spec'ed by Intel and sold as a unit.\n\nMy 2cents.

11.3 Km/sec at earth's surface (7 miles/sec)\n\nNOTE that escape velocity is the speed with which you would throw an object so that it does not fall back to earth. Rockets for example have constant propulsion and therefore do not need to travel with escape velocity to go into space.

Do we need a Prime Directive?
Star Trek fans will know about the 'Prime Directive', i.e. we cannot interfere in the natural course of a less evolved society.\nMaybe if we had something similar we could stop the sale of arms between countries
You would never be able to stop the sale of arms between 2 countries even with a Prime Directive. Look at all the gun laws we have in America and criminals STILL have guns. Liberals think if they could only pass just one more gun law maybe this time it would be different.(Isn't that the definition of insanity - do the same thing over and over hoping for a different result?)\n\nDidn't you see Star Trek V? Remeber the planet of Galactic Peace? Weapons were OUTLAWED on that planet and they STILL HAD WEAPONS.\n\nOurs is a planet governed by the threat of the use of force - people won't challenge us unless they see weakness (Like when Clinton was running the country and caused Black Hawk Down to happen because he cut and ran in Somalia) The best course of action is to have the strongest national defense system possible and then pray to a higher power that we never have to use it...ever.

Why is the Lion witch and wardore seen as a christain movie?
I believe because the author CS Lewis was a noted teacher and writer about Christianity, and I think it was somewhat understood that Lewis' children's books were Christian allegories. Lewis' stepson Douglas Gresham, who was involved in the production of the movie, doesn't believe that the religious significance placed on characters in the movie were as Lewis intended. But the studio releasing the movie, aware of the enormous success of Passion Of The Christ, hasn't discouraged any suggested Christian symbolism in the film.

Where did curse words d-a-m-n and g-o-d-d-a-m-n originate from,who first used these and why?
ummm...they come from damnation which is a synonym for condemnation. to damn is to condemn. people use it but don't really know what it means. when they say it, they're actually condemning the person to hell, or in the case of "goddamn" asking God to sentence the person to hell. it truly is a curse on someone.\n\ni'm not sure when it was first used, but it would have started as a regular word used as "to condemn". most likely, it was a religiously-affiliated word considering its topic of hell and God.

The distinction between theoretical math (also known as pure math) and applied math is usually made at the college level. Applied math is math that is done with specific real world applications in mind - such as physics, engineering, or statistics.\n\nTheoretical, or pure, math is abstract; math for math's sake. It's the broad set of rules that govern how numbers behave. Algebra, geometry, and calculus are all considered theoretical math, even though they can be very useful and applicable in the real world.
