7,400	4Computers & Internet	Can i got any software for free which can answer the questions of persons who come to my website?		You will need an Artificial Agent for such a purpose. The only problem is that we have just entered the arena of artificial intelligence and as such, do not have an robot till now which will answer the questions asked by humans accurately. However, work is going on at a rapid pace and within 50 years, I suppose the Sci Fi fantasy like in I Robots and Terminator will be a reality.\n\nFor your purpose, ELIZA and many other web bots are available. ELIZA is a famous 1966 computer program by Joseph Weizenbaum, which parodied a Rogerian therapist, largely by rephrasing many of the patient's statements as questions and posing them to the patient. Thus, for example, the response to "My head hurts" might be "Why do you say your head hurts?" The response to "My mother hates me" might be "Who else in your family hates you?"\n\nFor more info on ELIZA, you can check http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eliza\n\nELIZA is available at http://chayden.net/eliza/Eliza.html,\nin the form of a java applet, so you can deploy it on your website. Hope it works for you. Best of luck
7,401	0Society & Culture	Why don't Christians today follow Old Testament dietary laws?		Because the earliest Christians, when they were rejected by the Jews since Christian theology contradicts the Bible, went to the non-Jews to obtain converts.\n\nThey quickly discovered that the non-Jews would not convert, unless the requirements of Gd were removed, especially those of observing the Sabbath by not working, and of keeping kosher, and of circumcision. \n\nWhen they wrote the Christian's New Testament, they wrote verses they attributed to Jesus and to Paul to make observance of the Laws of Gd, like the Sabbath and of keeping Kosher and circumcision, no longer required. Then, the new faith of Christianity became more popular among the pagans of Europe.\n\nOf course one should ask: What would Jesus have thought of this development? After all, Christians believe that Jesus also said, \n\nMatthew 5:17-19 17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. 18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled. 19 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.\n\nLast i looked, heaven and earth have not passed away, so, to Jesus the Laws of Gd are to be followed! \n\nAnd if one person perfectly fulfills the laws of stopping at a stop sign, does this meant that from now on, no one has to stop at any stop sign anywhere? Fulfilling the law, even perfectly, does not mean the law is no longer valid or to be followed!\n\nIf Jesus said that those who teach others to break the commandments will be least in Heaven, it must mean that Jesus thought one should continue to observe Gd's laws. Unless being least in heaven is good enough.\n\nThen, as the followers of Christianity became more and more and more from the non-Jewish people, remembering that only the Jews were commanded to keep these laws, anyway, the Laws became irrelevant anyway.
7,402	9Politics & Government	how do you feel about the police?	I know some people don't like them just because.	You said "I know some people don't like them just because", but it seems to me you didn't finish your sentence.\n\n"...just because they were arrested for doing something against the law, and that doesn't allow them to live how they want."
7,403	1Science & Mathematics	is this true or false? yes i'm aware this is the third true or false question i asked so no need to wine?	In large data sets ( 1,000 or more values), the mean is always one of the data values.	False.\n\nThe key word in the question is 'always'. If there is any probability of a different answer, no matter how small, then it can not be 'always'.
7,404	4Computers & Internet	what's the benefits for WinXP Service Pack2 ?		As in all Microsoft products, it's never a perfect fix, but it is a big one.\n\nThere are several increased security features, including a pretty good pop-up blocker. It also more closely monitors Internet activity as you surf the web, advising you of potential security risks like ActiveX controls, programs attempting to launch, and content a site tries to download to you. It also monitors firewall and antivirus programs and settings. It still has a long way to go to better address security risks, but in my opinion this was a step in the right direction.\n\nHere's some of the details courtesy of Microsoft.
7,405	4Computers & Internet	Do you have a Backup solutions company?	why do you use a backup software? and any recommendations..?

7,406	9Politics & Government	what is the difference between an agreement and a contract?		There is no difference essentially. However when dealing for promissory notes it may be different. Did they actually make a not saying I will pay you $X? If so did you give them something in return or do something in return? If not that promise may suffer from lack of considration and not be enforceable. However if they promised you something either by note or orally, and you did something relying on that promise. You may be covered by promisoory estoppel if what you did was to your detriment. If they may have expected you to do that. Say A promises B $500 and A knows that B will go out and buy a car. B actually buys a Car relying on the money from A. A may be liable to B.

They were not prepared for the new diseases,bacterias, etc that had come into being since they began there trek...\nApparently they gave the human race more credit than they deserved. Just look at what we put into our systems on a daily basis, even just walking outdoors can be unhealthy for us, imagine someone who did not have any immune system to speak of. How quick would they die?\n Great movie by the way!!!
7,410	1Science & Mathematics	what is in the space inbetween organs?		Surprisingly, very little. It depends which organs you're talking about, but it's not full of blood or water, really, not like what you'd think from cartoons or something.
7,411	0Society & Culture	what is your favorite verse in the bible?	write up to five lines only and a reference as well as why you liked it... if it's already posted... sorry, just choose another one.	(2 Samuel 12:11-14 NAB)\n\nThus says the Lord: 'I will bring evil upon you out of your own house. I will take your wives [plural] while you live to see it, and will give them to your neighbor. He shall lie with your wives in broad daylight. You have done this deed in secret, but I will bring it about in the presence of all Israel, and with the sun looking down.'\n\n Then David said to Nathan, "I have sinned against the Lord." Nathan answered David: "The Lord on his part has forgiven your sin: you shall not die. But since you have utterly spurned the Lord by this deed, the child born to you must surely die." [The child dies seven days later.]
7,412	1Science & Mathematics	what is the website that tells all about science only?(elementary-collage)?		I recommend these sites:\nhttp://www.sciencemag.org/\nhttp://www.sciencenews.org/\nhttp://www.sciencedaily.com/
7,413	2Health	if u trim ur pubic hair r u suppose to itch?		i am guessing if you have to ask, this is one of the first times you have shaven down there, you might have done a bad job of it, tiny little cuts itch you know, good soap helps, keeping it dry, the hair might be growing back, or your underwear is too tight, no whity tighties, try boxers
7,414	6Business & Finance	What's Newton's second law?		Newton's second law:\nFirstly, this law states that if you do place a force on an object, it will accelerate, i.e., change its velocity, and it will change its velocity in the direction of the force.\nSecondly, this acceleration is directly proportional to the force. For example, if you are pushing on an object, causing it to accelerate, and then you push, say, three times harder, the acceleration will be three times greater.\nThirdly, this acceleration is inversely proportional to the mass of the object. For example, if you are pushing equally on two objects, and one of the objects has five times more mass than the other, it will accelerate at one fifth the acceleration of the other.

7,417	9Politics & Government	Why Do You Hate Us So Much?	I am an unashamed moonbat - neocon-speak for liberal. I visit neocon blogs sometimes as I honestly want to know why they hate us, They say so often that we say we believe in tolerance, but are intolerant. Liberals run a wide spectrum so some might be that way, but I don't see a lot of that. Why do neoconservatives hate us? Why do we still make you so mad even though your people are running the entire USA federal government? Why can you overlook such obvious and up-front knowledge that the Bush Admin has not only lied but broken Constitutional law? And what - if anything - could liberals do short of suicide or political conversion that would lessen your hatred for us? This is a 100% honest question; I would really appreciate a 100% honest answer, not just more hatred or jokes or saying we "help the terrorists", since that's part of the whole point: there's less terrorism when there's less hate and more of it when the hate increases. I thank you in advance for your intelligent reply.	well isnt it obvious?...they hate folks like u (and me) because you are honest (as your question attests itself) about issues and not afraid to ask honest questions...and also you know a lot, well enough to know that the neo-cons lie and break the constitution....well truth is bitter aint it?\n\nalso why should you care if they hate you or not? their hatred pulls a cloud over their eyes, makes them intractable to any reasoning and arguments....just be the way you are and keep on widening your horizons...you would grow to pity them.....
7,418	2Health	Is the Ionic Breeze worth the money?	My brother has severe dust allergies. I am wondering if this product might be a good one to talk to him about.	I've had the same Ionic Breeze (large size) for the last 5 years, and I use it as an "air refreshener." It works really well for neutralizing odors--I have 2 large dogs and one cat... but doesn't do much for catching dust and allergens. \n\nI did some research--the Honeywell Enviracaire 50250 Air Purifier has gotten great product reviews from people with allergies. \nhttp://www.epinions.com/Air_Purifiers/search_string_~air%20purifiers/adv_search_~1\n\nBest of luck! Hope you find a product that works for your bro.
7,419	8Family & Relationships	How do you know when your in love?		You know you are in love because it is the most natural thing you'll ever experience. Its the one time in your life you totally forget about yourself and only care about the well being of another. It gives you purpose.....gives you reason. Love is waking up and the first thought in your mind being of the person so dear to your heart. Love is being excited to go to sleep at night just so you can wake up and spend a whole other day with the person you love. Love isn't work as people say.......love is natural......the most natural thing you'll ever feel in your life.
7,420	2Health	ganglion cyst?		A ganglion cyst is a swelling that often appears on or around joints and tendons in the hand (or sometime feet). The size of the cyst can vary over time, often becoming more inflamed if irritated. It is most frequently located around the wrist and on the fingers.\n\nThe exact cause of the formation of ganglion cysts is still unknown. They occur more often in the 20 - 40 age group and in females.\n\nThey are not generally considered harmful although can cause discomfort and/or limit movement. Frequently, the cysts will disappear over time, so in cases of small cysts that don't cause symptoms, no therapy is necessary. If a ganglion cyst is symptomatic, it can be managed by aspiration or surgery. Aspiration of the cyst is the simpler method, but cysts will develop again in about 50% cases. Recurrence rate after surgery is only 5-10%, the procedure is simple and usually there are no complications.
7,421	2Health	how harmfull is mastur_ation?		I agree that "IT" is not harmful in any way. However, people with addiction or compulsive behaviors may engage in said activity excessively, causing them to avoid other forms of social interaction. Occasional overindulgence is fine and each person has to define an acceptable frequency and be aware if excessive self gratification prevents social interactions with members of the same or opposite sex (depending on your interests).

7,428	6Business & Finance	who invent the metric system, and why if we already have one?		No one person invented the Metric System, but it dates to 18th century France. You're right, we do already have a system, called Standard that has pounds, ounces and so on. The reason that Metric is prefered (and indeed used by almost all developed nations except the United States) is simple: How many ounces are in a gallon? How many square feet are in an acre? How many inches are in a yard? These questions yeild the following answers; .0078, 2.29 x 10^-5 and 36, not easy numbers to work with. With Metric, the major marking points are 10, 100, 1000, and so on. The modern metric system also uses extremely sophisticated ways of getting precise measurements based on natural objects (the size of the earth, the weight of water and so on).
7,429	6Business & Finance	What States have their own W4 Forms and How do I Find Them?		None, the W-2 and W-4 are IRS forms and standard for every state, since the IRS is a Federal Agency.
7,430	7Entertainment & Music	What is selling out?	I was just wondering what selling out is? I always hear somebody saying so-and-so has sold out and it's usually whenever they start to get big and famous. So does being famous make you a sell out? Isn't getting famous a good thing?	Selling out is a phrase used to describe forsaking one's original principles, usually for monetary gain. In your example, they probably mean that the celebrity is no longer "true to themselves" and took on a different personality because it makes more money.

7,433	4Computers & Internet	Anybody know how to work Remote Desktop Connection?	I have Windows XP Professional SP2, and I have been trying forever to get Remote Desktop to work. Can anybody tell me how to get it to work, or a program that can do that eaisier?	My preferred program is UltraVNC. It's relatively light, and supports encryption (if security is important). Very simple to setup, and once you setup, its one click connection to your pc.\n\nIf you want an easy way to connect them together through routers without port forwarding, try hamachi. It's a zero config vpn program that is always encrypted. It will make your computers think that they are on the same local area network.
7,434	4Computers & Internet	Are there (free) tools to check Apache access logs for hackers?		just use grep and search for suspicious activity
7,435	4Computers & Internet	can i increase the speed of my computer without changing the processor?	now i am using p4 with 1.0 ghz. how can i increase it so i can go faster. most of my games r not working properly(moving slide by slide) when i load them and cpu usage is quite a lot. my ram is 128	1: Increase Memory: Depending on your motherboard, you can probably add a lot more ram memory. Doing this can help a great deal.\n2: Better Video Card: If your main concern is playing games, install a better video card. ATI Radeons and nVidia cards are generally accepted as the best. Make sure to find out if you have an AGP or just a PCI slot for the card.\n3: Streamline your PC: Get rid of things that startup which you do not need. Also, a new hard disk with fast (7200) rpms, can speed things up, especially if you are low on disk space now.\n\nDoing all this will still cost less than buying a new motherboard and cpu. Overclocking is really not necessary.. However, you can only get so far without replacing your motherboard and cpu.\n\nNote: Do not close all the processes which you don't think you need through cntrl-alt-del menu. Many of those actually speed up your computer, since they run drivers for video and what not. Removing programs from the systemtrey and others that start up, such as spyware is still a good idea.

7,443	1Science & Mathematics	What is a solar eclipse?	It is an eclipse	A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes in front of the Sun and obscures it totally or partially. This configuration can only occur at New Moon, when the Sun and Moon are in conjunction, as seen from the Earth.\n\nThere are four types of solar eclipses:\n\n1.A total eclipse occurs when the Sun is completely obscured by the Moon. The intensely bright disk of the Sun is replaced by the dark outline of the Moon, and the much fainter corona is visible (see image right). During any one eclipse, a total eclipse is visible only from a fairly narrow track on the surface of the Earth. \n2.An annular eclipse occurs when the Sun and Moon are exactly in line, but the apparent size of the Moon is smaller than that of the Sun. Hence the Sun appears as a very bright ring surrounding the outline of the Moon. \n\n3.A hybrid eclipse is intermediate between a total and annular eclipse. At some points on the Earth it is visible as a total eclipse; whereas at others it is annular. The generic term for a total, annular or hybrid eclipse is a central eclipse. \n\n4.A partial eclipse occurs when the Sun and Moon are not exactly in line, and the Moon only partially obscures the Sun. This phenomenon can usually be seen from a large part of the Earth outside of the track of a central eclipse. However, some eclipses can only be seen as a partial eclipse, because the central line never intersects the Earth's surface.
7,444	1Science & Mathematics	what 5 things makes up the atmosphere?	I need to know man	* ionosphere — the region containing ions: approximately the mesosphere and thermosphere up to 550 km.\n\n* exosphere — above the ionosphere, where the atmosphere thins out into space.\n\n* magnetosphere — the region where the Earth's magnetic field interacts with the solar wind from the Sun. It extends for tens of thousands of kilometers, with a long tail away from the Sun.\n\n* ozone layer — or ozonosphere, approximately 10 - 50 km, where stratospheric ozone is found. Note that even within this region, ozone is a minor constituent by volume.\n\n* upper atmosphere — the region of the atmosphere above the mesopause.\n\n* Van Allen radiation belts — regions where particles from the Sun become concentrated.

7,449	7Entertainment & Music	Which is the longest English movie ever released?		"Various long movies have been made purely for the sake of being long, like the 85 hour Cure For Insomnia. Given that it's just made up of bits of petry recitals, rock concerts and pornography, most people wouldn't class it as a real film.\n\nEdgar Reitz' excellent 15 hour 40 minute film Heimat was made to be shown on TV in episodes, but it has been shown in marathon cinema screenings as has Rainer Werner Fassbinder's acclaimed Berlin Alexanderplatz (15 hour 20 mins). Reitz has made two sequels: Heimat 2 runs 25 1/2 hours, Heimat 3 a mere 12. Heimat 2 has the Guinness World Record for 'Longest Film Commercially Shown In Its Entirety'.\n\nOther good long films are Christine Edzard's 6 hour film of Little Dorrit (starring Derek Jacobi and Alec Guinness), Abel Gance's Napoleon (originally 9 hours, although only a 7 1/2 hour version survives), Claude Lanzmann's 9 1/2 hour Holocaust documentary Shoah and Masaki Kobayashi's The Human Condition (10 hours). All the films mentioned here (apart from Cure For Insomnia) are well worth seeing."\n\nMore at source link.

7,452	0Society & Culture	why dont more stores sell chanukah decorations?		Stores are only interested in the 'bottom-line' a.k.a. 'the almighty dollar'.. There's less of a percentage of Jews in the USA than there are other religions, so there is less money to be made. Look for specialty stores in your area.
7,453	6Business & Finance	will becoming a dr. be hard???		12 Years of long hard and dedicated work. So yes.

7,455	4Computers & Internet	Is McAfee subscription worth the money when you can get firewalls and virus checkers for free?	Kerio's free firewall (despite a recent scare about it closing) will still be available, and AVG virus checker is still free.	I've stopped updating my McAfee Anti-Virus.\nIf you are cheap (like me) there is a good anti-virus\nprogram called AVG from Grisoft that is free for\npersonal use.\n\nYou can download it here (link near bottom of page):\nhttp://free.grisoft.com/freewe...\n\nBefore you install this program be sure to UNINSTALL\nany other anti-virus program that you currently have\ninstalled. Anti-virus programs don't play well\ntogether so you should have only one anti-virus\nprogram installed at any given time.\n\nZone Alarm is a FREE firewall program that provides good protection. \n\nYou can download it here:\nhttp://www.zonelabs.com/store/...\n\nWhen you install Zone Alarm you will be prompted to\nchoose the free trial to Zone Alarm Pro or just Zone\nAlarm, choose the Zone Alarm (just the firewall)\nbecause it's free. Zone Alarm monitors incoming and\noutgoing transmissions. It will take a little effort\nto get the settings up and running but it's easy and\nworth the time.\n\nAlong with scanning for viruses stopping spyware is important too. \nThere are 3 good FREE programs that are effective at dealing with spyware, Ad-aware SE Personal 1.05 (removes spyware), Spybot Search & Destroy (blocks and removes spyware), Spyware Blaster 3.2 (blocks spyware). I have all 3 of these programs installed on my PC and they work well together without any conflicts. After these programs are installed they need to be updated on a regular basis to be effective. These programs will have to be manually updated.\n\nYou can download Ad-aware SE Personal 1.05 here (click on "Download Now" near top left of page):\nhttp://www.download.com/Ad-Awa...\n\nAd-aware SE Personal 1.05 will scan your PC and\nidentify spyware that should be removed. Ad-aware\ndefinition files are updated about once a week.\n\n\nSpybot Search and Destroy can be downloaded here:\nhttp://www.safer- etworking.org/en/mirrors/index...\n\nSpybot Search and Destroy will "Check for Problems"\n(scan) your PC for spyware that should be removed.\nBe sure to use the "Immunize" feature that blocks\nknown spyware from getting onto your PC. Spybot\nSearch and Destroy detection files are updated about\nonce a month.\nAfter you update Spybot Search and Destroy each month be sure to "immunize" your PC so that the updated spyware threats will be blocked.\n\n\n\nSpyware Blaster 3.2 can be downloaded here:\nhttp://www.javacoolsoftware.co...\n\nAfter the program is installed be sure to click on\n"Enable All Protection" so the program blocks spyware.\nDetection files are updated about once a month. After updates are installed each month be sure to click on "Enable All Protection" again so the updated detection files are applied.\n\n\nYou may also want to use Mozilla Firefox 1.07 as your\nprimary web browser. Firefox is an excellent program,\nand I have been using it for several months now.\nFirefox has fewer security flaws than Internet\nExplorer. You will still need to use Internet\nExplorer to download Microsoft updates.\nYou can download Firefox here:\nhttp://www.mozilla.org/product...\n\n\nBe sure you have all the critical updates from\nMicrosoft for Windows and Internet Explorer.\nOpen Internet Explorer, click on "Tools" and select\n"Windows Update".

7,457	9Politics & Government	When someone says that something is polical correct. What is the name of the person who determines that?		It is not A Person but society in general. It is more of what the most vocal groups decide. It may not actually be the majority of society, but those that make their point heard the loudest.
7,458	1Science & Mathematics	Why is the sky blue?		The water on the surface of the earth acts like a prism. When the sunlight hits it, the light bends, just like a regular prism.. Blue is the most bent, or closest color to the surface, so this is what we see reflected. The other colors disappear into space, or sometimes they are reflected in the clouds.
7,459	6Business & Finance	why is it that i've never actually seen anyone cooking the ground beef at taco bell?		The beef at Taco Bell (as well as most/all other Taco Bell meats) arrives at the restaurant precooked. It is sealed precooked and preseasoned in plastic bags. The bags are heated by floating them in 15 gallon pots of boiling water until they are fully heated to 165 degrees Fahrenheit.\n\nThis is actually more sanitary than cooking the meat onsite because there is never any raw meat in the resturant. It is also more efficient for very high capacity resurants like Taco Bell.\n\n\nNow... Ask about the beans.

7,477	4Computers & Internet	what is rar?		1. What is a RAR file\n\nRAR is the native format of WinRAR archiver. Like other archives, RAR files are data containers, they store one or several files in the compressed form. After you downloaded RAR file from Internet, you need to unpack its contents in order to use it. \n2. How to handle RAR files\n\nWinRAR provides the complete support for RAR files, so you may both create and unpack them. If you installed WinRAR on your computer and downloaded RAR file from Internet, you may double click on RAR file icon to open it in WinRAR, select all files, press "Extract To" button, enter a destination path and press "OK". Another way is to click on the RAR file in Explorer using the right mouse button. If you enabled "Shell integration" option when installing WinRAR, the file context menu will contain "Extract to ..." item. \n\nSome RAR files can be parts of multi-volume sequences. In WinRAR you can split a huge archive to a few smaller files, which are called volumes. They may have extensions .rar (the first volume), .r00, .r01, ..., or .part1.rar (the first volume), .part2.rar, ..., etc. If you need to unpack volumes, place all them to the same folder and start extraction from the first volume. \n3. RAR versus ZIP\n\nComparing to ZIP file format, RAR provides a number of advanced features: more convenient multipart (multivolume) archives, tight compression including special solid, multimedia and text modes, strong AES-128 encryption, recovery records helping to repair an archive even in case of physical data damage, Unicode support to process non-English file names and a lot more.
7,478	2Health	How can I naturally speed up my metabolism to lose weight and keep it down?		I asssume you mean a safe way to raise your metabolic rate, because I know of some ways that you might call natural that are deadly but will raise your metabolic rate in the short term.\n\nThe easiest way is to put on new muscle. Muscle burns calories even at rest, and the more of it you have, the higher your metabolic rate. The composition of your diet is also important. It takes calories to digest food. Fats and Carbs do not take much energy to digest, but 15-30 % of the calories you get from protein are needed simply to digest the protein. Only 3-4% of fat calories are needed to digest fat, and 10-15% of carb calories are needed to digest the carbs.\n\nAnother important point is that you should eat small meals, this will keep your metabolism up and your blood sugar stable. Binge eating and then starving will cause you to put on fat with the binge; then lower your metabolism as you starve (and burn muscle in addtion to fat in the process).\n\nFiber will also reduce the absorption of food in the gut. Calcium will also help with fat loss. A study a number of years ago told some particiapnts to eat two cups of yogurt a day. They could eat whatever else they wanted so long as they ate two cups of yogurt. The participants lost weight with this method.

7,482	0Society & Culture	What is the religion of Jesus Crist before he died? How he practice his religious>?		From Wikipedia:\n\n"Many noted critical historians, such as Shaye Cohen, John Dominic Crossan, Paula Fredriksen, John Meiers, E.P. Sanders, and Geza Vermes argue that Jesus lived from about 8-4 BC/BCE to 29-36 AD/CE. The main sources regarding his life and teachings are the four canonical Gospels from the New Testament, which took written form some decades after his death. They depict him – among many other things – as a Jewish Galilean preacher and healer who was at odds with the Jewish religious authorities , and who was crucified outside of Jerusalem during the rule of the Roman procurator Pontius Pilate. After his death numerous followers spread his teachings, and within a few decades Christianity emerged as a religion distinct from Judaism."\n\n"Jesus frequently put himself in opposition to the Jewish religious hierachy of the Pharisees and Sadducees. His teaching castigated the Pharisees primarily for their legalism and hypocrisy, although he also had followers among the religious leaders such as Nicodemus. Jesus was also known as a social reformer, and the controversial view that he was the Jewish Messiah.\n\nJesus' preachings included the forgiveness of sin, life after death, and resurrection of the body. Jesus also preached the imminent end of the current era of history, or even the literal end of the world and in this sense he was an apocalyptic preacher. Some interpretations of the Gospels, particularly amongst Protestants, suggest that Jesus opposed stringent interpretations of Jewish law, supporting the spirit more than the letter of the law."

7,488	0Society & Culture	If people are to blame nature or society for being evil, why do they go to hell for what they are? ..jff, JFF?		1. I believe that God will take into account the forces that shape us when we face him for the final reckoning.\n\n2. "Blame", or rather responsibility, is not divided when it is shared. I may be fully responsible for my actions, but if I act the way my father taught me to act, he too has some responsibility for my behavior. \n\n3. In reality, people who do evil almost never think they are doing anything wrong. Hitler thought he was cleaning the world of inferior humans when he sent homosexuals, gypsies and jews to concentration camps. When you see a criminal blame society for their crimes, it's usually more in the way of lashing back out at the people who are putting them into jail than trying to explain their actions.\n\n4. For those of us try to explain how certain circumstances led to a person's actions, we are not trying to excuse their behaviour, we are trying to understand it so that we can prevent it EFFECTIVELY. How can you fix a problem if you don't understand what caused it? Before you say "That's what prisons are for", I will point you to recidivism rates. When someone is sent to jail, society loses almost all of the leverage that the threat of punishment provides. So we have to understand how people get to the point that the threat of punishment doesn't work before we can effectively stop crime.

Can i got any software for free which can answer the questions of persons who come to my website?

You will need an Artificial Agent for such a purpose. The only problem is that we have just entered the arena of artificial intelligence and as such, do not have an robot till now which will answer the questions asked by humans accurately. However, work is going on at a rapid pace and within 50 years, I suppose the Sci Fi fantasy like in I Robots and Terminator will be a reality.\n\nFor your purpose, ELIZA and many other web bots are available. ELIZA is a famous 1966 computer program by Joseph Weizenbaum, which parodied a Rogerian therapist, largely by rephrasing many of the patient's statements as questions and posing them to the patient. Thus, for example, the response to "My head hurts" might be "Why do you say your head hurts?" The response to "My mother hates me" might be "Who else in your family hates you?"\n\nFor more info on ELIZA, you can check http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eliza\n\nELIZA is available at http://chayden.net/eliza/Eliza.html,\nin the form of a java applet, so you can deploy it on your website.

Why don't Christians today follow Old Testament dietary laws?

Because the earliest Christians, when they were rejected by the Jews since Christian theology contradicts the Bible, went to the non-Jews to obtain converts.\n\nThey quickly discovered that the non-Jews would not convert, unless the requirements of Gd were removed, especially those of observing the Sabbath by not working, and of keeping kosher, and of circumcision. \n\nWhen they wrote the Christian's New Testament, they wrote verses they attributed to Jesus and to Paul to make observance of the Laws of Gd, like the Sabbath and of keeping Kosher and circumcision, no longer required. Then, the new faith of Christianity became more popular among the pagans of Europe.\n\nOf course one should ask: What would Jesus have thought of this development? After all, Christians believe that Jesus also said, \n\nMatthew 5:17-19 17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. 18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled. 19 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.\n\nLast i looked, heaven and earth have not passed away, so, to Jesus the Laws of Gd are to be followed! \n\nAnd if one person perfectly fulfills the laws of stopping at a stop sign, does this meant that from now on, no one has to stop at any stop sign anywhere? Fulfilling the law, even perfectly, does not mean the law is no longer valid or to be followed!\n\nIf Jesus said that those who teach others to break the commandments will be least in Heaven, it must mean that Jesus thought one should continue to observe Gd's laws. Unless being least in heaven is good enough.\n\nThen, as the followers of Christianity became more and more and more from the non-Jewish people, remembering that only the Jews were commanded to keep these laws, anyway, the Laws became irrelevant anyway.

what is the difference between an agreement and a contract?

There is no difference essentially. However when dealing for promissory notes it may be different. Did they actually make a not saying I will pay you $X? If so did you give them something in return or do something in return? If not that promise may suffer from lack of considration and not be enforceable. However if they promised you something either by note or orally, and you did something relying on that promise. You may be covered by promisoory estoppel if what you did was to your detriment. If they may have expected you to do that. Say A promises B $500 and A knows that B will go out and buy a car. B actually buys a Car relying on the money from A. A may be liable to B.

What's Newton's second law?

Newton's second law:\nFirstly, this law states that if you do place a force on an object, it will accelerate, i.e., change its velocity, and it will change its velocity in the direction of the force.\nSecondly, this acceleration is directly proportional to the force. For example, if you are pushing on an object, causing it to accelerate, and then you push, say, three times harder, the acceleration will be three times greater.\nThirdly, this acceleration is inversely proportional to the mass of the object. For example, if you are pushing equally on two objects, and one of the objects has five times more mass than the other, it will accelerate at one fifth the acceleration of the other.

Why Do You Hate Us So Much?

I am an unashamed moonbat - neocon-speak for liberal. I visit neocon blogs sometimes as I honestly want to know why they hate us, They say so often that we say we believe in tolerance, but are intolerant. Liberals run a wide spectrum so some might be that way, but I don't see a lot of that. Why do neoconservatives hate us? Why do we still make you so mad even though your people are running the entire USA federal government? Why can you overlook such obvious and up-front knowledge that the Bush Admin has not only lied but broken Constitutional law? And what - if anything - could liberals do short of suicide or political conversion that would lessen your hatred for us? This is a 100% honest question; I would really appreciate a 100% honest answer, not just more hatred or jokes or saying we "help the terrorists", since that's part of the whole point: there's less terrorism when there's less hate and more of it when the hate increases. I thank you in advance for your intelligent reply.

well isnt it obvious?...they hate folks like u (and me) because you are honest (as your question attests itself) about issues and not afraid to ask honest questions...and also you know a lot, well enough to know that the neo-cons lie and break the constitution....well truth is bitter aint it?\n\nalso why should you care if they hate you or not? their hatred pulls a cloud over their eyes, makes them intractable to any reasoning and arguments....just be the way you are and keep on widening your horizons...you would grow to pity them.....

ganglion cyst?

A ganglion cyst is a swelling that often appears on or around joints and tendons in the hand (or sometime feet). The size of the cyst can vary over time, often becoming more inflamed if irritated. It is most frequently located around the wrist and on the fingers.\n\nThe exact cause of the formation of ganglion cysts is still unknown. They occur more often in the 20 - 40 age group and in females.\n\nThey are not generally considered harmful although can cause discomfort and/or limit movement. Frequently, the cysts will disappear over time, so in cases of small cysts that don't cause symptoms, no therapy is necessary. If a ganglion cyst is symptomatic, it can be managed by aspiration or surgery. Aspiration of the cyst is the simpler method, but cysts will develop again in about 50% cases. Recurrence rate after surgery is only 5-10%, the procedure is simple and usually there are no complications.

how harmfull is mastur_ation?

I agree that "IT" is not harmful in any way. However, people with addiction or compulsive behaviors may engage in said activity excessively, causing them to avoid other forms of social interaction. Occasional overindulgence is fine and each person has to define an acceptable frequency and be aware if excessive self gratification prevents social interactions with members of the same or opposite sex (depending on your interests).

who invent the metric system, and why if we already have one?

No one person invented the Metric System, but it dates to 18th century France. You're right, we do already have a system, called Standard that has pounds, ounces and so on. The reason that Metric is prefered (and indeed used by almost all developed nations except the United States) is simple: How many ounces are in a gallon? How many square feet are in an acre? How many inches are in a yard? These questions yeild the following answers; .0078, 2.29 x 10^-5 and 36, not easy numbers to work with. With Metric, the major marking points are 10, 100, 1000, and so on. The modern metric system also uses extremely sophisticated ways of getting precise measurements based on natural objects (the size of the earth, the weight of water and so on).

What is selling out?

I was just wondering what selling out is? I always hear somebody saying so-and-so has sold out and it's usually whenever they start to get big and famous. So does being famous make you a sell out? Isn't getting famous a good thing?

Selling out is a phrase used to describe forsaking one's original principles, usually for monetary gain. In your example, they probably mean that the celebrity is no longer "true to themselves" and took on a different personality because it makes more money.

can i increase the speed of my computer without changing the processor?

now i am using p4 with 1.0 ghz. how can i increase it so i can go faster. most of my games r not working properly(moving slide by slide) when i load them and cpu usage is quite a lot. my ram is 128

1: Increase Memory: Depending on your motherboard, you can probably add a lot more ram memory. Doing this can help a great deal.\n2: Better Video Card: If your main concern is playing games, install a better video card. ATI Radeons and nVidia cards are generally accepted as the best. Make sure to find out if you have an AGP or just a PCI slot for the card.\n3: Streamline your PC: Get rid of things that startup which you do not need. Also, a new hard disk with fast (7200) rpms, can speed things up, especially if you are low on disk space now.\n\nDoing all this will still cost less than buying a new motherboard and cpu. Overclocking is really not necessary.. However, you can only get so far without replacing your motherboard and cpu.\n\nNote: Do not close all the processes which you don't think you need through cntrl-alt-del menu. Many of those actually speed up your computer, since they run drivers for video and what not. Removing programs from the systemtrey and others that start up, such as spyware is still a good idea.

What is a solar eclipse?

It is an eclipse

A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes in front of the Sun and obscures it totally or partially. This configuration can only occur at New Moon, when the Sun and Moon are in conjunction, as seen from the Earth.\n\nThere are four types of solar eclipses:\n\n1.A total eclipse occurs when the Sun is completely obscured by the Moon. The intensely bright disk of the Sun is replaced by the dark outline of the Moon, and the much fainter corona is visible (see image right). During any one eclipse, a total eclipse is visible only from a fairly narrow track on the surface of the Earth. \n2.An annular eclipse occurs when the Sun and Moon are exactly in line, but the apparent size of the Moon is smaller than that of the Sun. Hence the Sun appears as a very bright ring surrounding the outline of the Moon. \n\n3.A hybrid eclipse is intermediate between a total and annular eclipse. At some points on the Earth it is visible as a total eclipse; whereas at others it is annular. The generic term for a total, annular or hybrid eclipse is a central eclipse. \n\n4.A partial eclipse occurs when the Sun and Moon are not exactly in line, and the Moon only partially obscures the Sun. This phenomenon can usually be seen from a large part of the Earth outside of the track of a central eclipse. However, some eclipses can only be seen as a partial eclipse, because the central line never intersects the Earth's surface.

"Various long movies have been made purely for the sake of being long, like the 85 hour Cure For Insomnia. Given that it's just made up of bits of petry recitals, rock concerts and pornography, most people wouldn't class it as a real film.\n\nEdgar Reitz' excellent 15 hour 40 minute film Heimat was made to be shown on TV in episodes, but it has been shown in marathon cinema screenings as has Rainer Werner Fassbinder's acclaimed Berlin Alexanderplatz (15 hour 20 mins). Reitz has made two sequels: Heimat 2 runs 25 1/2 hours, Heimat 3 a mere 12. Heimat 2 has the Guinness World Record for 'Longest Film Commercially Shown In Its Entirety'.\n\nOther good long films are Christine Edzard's 6 hour film of Little Dorrit (starring Derek Jacobi and Alec Guinness), Abel Gance's Napoleon (originally 9 hours, although only a 7 1/2 hour version survives), Claude Lanzmann's 9 1/2 hour Holocaust documentary Shoah and Masaki Kobayashi's The Human Condition (10 hours).

Zone Alarm monitors incoming and\noutgoing transmissions. It will take a little effort\nto get the settings up and running but it's easy and\nworth the time.\n\nAlong with scanning for viruses stopping spyware is important too. \nThere are 3 good FREE programs that are effective at dealing with spyware, Ad-aware SE Personal 1.05 (removes spyware), Spybot Search & Destroy (blocks and removes spyware), Spyware Blaster 3.2 (blocks spyware).

what is rar?

1. What is a RAR file\n\nRAR is the native format of WinRAR archiver. Like other archives, RAR files are data containers, they store one or several files in the compressed form. After you downloaded RAR file from Internet, you need to unpack its contents in order to use it. \n2. How to handle RAR files\n\nWinRAR provides the complete support for RAR files, so you may both create and unpack them. If you installed WinRAR on your computer and downloaded RAR file from Internet, you may double click on RAR file icon to open it in WinRAR, select all files, press "Extract To" button, enter a destination path and press "OK". Another way is to click on the RAR file in Explorer using the right mouse button. If you enabled "Shell integration" option when installing WinRAR, the file context menu will contain "Extract to ..." item. \n\nSome RAR files can be parts of multi-volume sequences. In WinRAR you can split a huge archive to a few smaller files, which are called volumes. They may have extensions .rar (the first volume), .r00, .r01, ..., or .part1.rar (the first volume), .part2.rar, ..., etc. If you need to unpack volumes, place all them to the same folder and start extraction from the first volume. \n3. RAR versus ZIP\n\nComparing to ZIP file format, RAR provides a number of advanced features: more convenient multipart (multivolume) archives, tight compression including special solid, multimedia and text modes, strong AES-128 encryption, recovery records helping to repair an archive even in case of physical data damage, Unicode support to process non-English file names and a lot more.

How can I naturally speed up my metabolism to lose weight and keep it down?

I asssume you mean a safe way to raise your metabolic rate, because I know of some ways that you might call natural that are deadly but will raise your metabolic rate in the short term.\n\nThe easiest way is to put on new muscle. Muscle burns calories even at rest, and the more of it you have, the higher your metabolic rate. The composition of your diet is also important. It takes calories to digest food. Fats and Carbs do not take much energy to digest, but 15-30 % of the calories you get from protein are needed simply to digest the protein. Only 3-4% of fat calories are needed to digest fat, and 10-15% of carb calories are needed to digest the carbs.\n\nAnother important point is that you should eat small meals, this will keep your metabolism up and your blood sugar stable. Binge eating and then starving will cause you to put on fat with the binge; then lower your metabolism as you starve (and burn muscle in addtion to fat in the process).\n\nFiber will also reduce the absorption of food in the gut. Calcium will also help with fat loss. A study a number of years ago told some particiapnts to eat two cups of yogurt a day. They could eat whatever else they wanted so long as they ate two cups of yogurt. The participants lost weight with this method.

What is the religion of Jesus Crist before he died? How he practice his religious>?

From Wikipedia:\n\n"Many noted critical historians, such as Shaye Cohen, John Dominic Crossan, Paula Fredriksen, John Meiers, E.P. Sanders, and Geza Vermes argue that Jesus lived from about 8-4 BC/BCE to 29-36 AD/CE. The main sources regarding his life and teachings are the four canonical Gospels from the New Testament, which took written form some decades after his death. They depict him – among many other things – as a Jewish Galilean preacher and healer who was at odds with the Jewish religious authorities , and who was crucified outside of Jerusalem during the rule of the Roman procurator Pontius Pilate. After his death numerous followers spread his teachings, and within a few decades Christianity emerged as a religion distinct from Judaism."\n\n"Jesus frequently put himself in opposition to the Jewish religious hierachy of the Pharisees and Sadducees. His teaching castigated the Pharisees primarily for their legalism and hypocrisy, although he also had followers among the religious leaders such as Nicodemus. Jesus was also known as a social reformer, and the controversial view that he was the Jewish Messiah.\n\nJesus' preachings included the forgiveness of sin, life after death, and resurrection of the body. Jesus also preached the imminent end of the current era of history, or even the literal end of the world and in this sense he was an apocalyptic preacher. Some interpretations of the Gospels, particularly amongst Protestants, suggest that Jesus opposed stringent interpretations of Jewish law, supporting the spirit more than the letter of the law."

your testicles are supposed to hang at different levels so that they do not rub together when you walk. i dont know why one would be bigger than the other, except to say that many men probably are the sme way. >shrug<

If people are to blame nature or society for being evil, why do they go to hell for what they are? ..jff, JFF?

1. I believe that God will take into account the forces that shape us when we face him for the final reckoning.\n\n2. "Blame", or rather responsibility, is not divided when it is shared. I may be fully responsible for my actions, but if I act the way my father taught me to act, he too has some responsibility for my behavior. \n\n3. In reality, people who do evil almost never think they are doing anything wrong. Hitler thought he was cleaning the world of inferior humans when he sent homosexuals, gypsies and jews to concentration camps. When you see a criminal blame society for their crimes, it's usually more in the way of lashing back out at the people who are putting them into jail than trying to explain their actions.\n\n4. For those of us try to explain how certain circumstances led to a person's actions, we are not trying to excuse their behaviour, we are trying to *understand* it so that we can prevent it EFFECTIVELY. How can you fix a problem if you don't understand what caused it? Before you say "That's what prisons are for", I will point you to recidivism rates. When someone is sent to jail, society loses almost all of the leverage that the threat of punishment provides. So we have to understand how people get to the point that the threat of punishment doesn't work before we can effectively stop crime.

Why UPS guys sticks the notice on front door why not the on rear door or some other door?

they are not required to walk around to the back of your house to leave a notice. It is easier to just put it on the door they are standing at.

can anybody tell me plz what 'HASTA LA VISTA' means?

i think this is the french word but i really dont know what does it mean

It's Spanish. "Hasta" means "until", so you can say "Hasta luego" (until later) or "Hasta mañana" (until tomorrow).\n\n"la" is just a gender preposition, denoting that "vista" (view) is feminine ("el" is masculine).\n\nThe figurative meaning is "Until later" or "until we see each other again".

Booksmart and Streetsmart, what you will choose? Give me the reason why?

both are important in their different contexts. a gangsta in da hood whose being confronted by some brotha getting ready to play his ass will not benefit from knowing the history of philosophy. a person in the company of intellectuals will be considered a fool if his knowledge consists of how not to get jacked. \n\nboth are important in their distinct contexts and one would benefit from having both since they each have some value. what kind of knowledge you should attain depends on what type of environment you hope to live, how you want to live your life etc. \na person who is academically retarded is a fool in many respects. their mind hasnt been trained to think critically. a professor who has spent his whole life studying academic books will may be a fool on the streets.
