how important is sex in a relationship and how important is penis size in that sexual part of that relationshi Sex is important. How important varies. Penis size has little to do with a healthy sex life.\n\nIf a woman's vagina is large it is not becasue she has a lot of sex. Some women have larger vaginas than others just as some men have larger penises than others. Most women acheive orgasm through clitoral stimulation and the penis has very little to do with that. |

should i leave my husband who ignores me and shows me no affection or stay for the kids sake? As a psychologist staying together for the kids sake is NEVER in their best interest...although as parents we seem to think so. Your children can sense that you are unhappy even if you think you dont show it. Whats more is if you have a son he may get the impression that men dont touch their wives and grow up thinking thats how it is and then in turn do that to his women. If you have a daughter she may get the idea that she shouldnt need or want affection and marry someone as such and feel just as you are 20 years from now.\nI suggest talking to him. Telling him you do need affection. If he still wont budge there is always counceling....but you must let him know you would leave him if thngs dont change. He may actually want out himself. |

how much money does a massage therapist make in california? Not much... the pay is sporadic unless you work for a chiropractor. You get paid per massage usually from $50-80 an hour depending on where you are working. My fiance got his massage therapy license but when the reality of the low pay set in he gave up and went back to school. |
War on Terror? This is going to be a very opiniated question or whatever. But i would like to know YOUR opinion about the war on terror. Please give specific descriptions for reasons we should be in the war and/or reasons not to be in it. Thanks! Why is it called war on terror. Was it not called war on terrorism just a few months back ? I think that war is built on a lie. The lie about WMD being ready and able to be a threat to the US. I can only say that this was a picked fight and later grab for any reason to get it started. When it got started it was a point of no return. \nSaddam is and was a crook he have been that in the 00s in the 90s and in the 80s . Even in the 70s. \n\nHere comes the part I dont understand. Why arming Saddam in the 80s like US did. They knew he was a crook but that didnt matter for Reagan or Bush sr. Who cared about the Iraqi peolpe back then supporting there oppressor. \n\nIn a way by being in Iraq at the moment and hopefully building something that will last will bring some ease on US as a nation that before supported the Iraqi peoples opressor. Like clean up there own mess in a way. \n\nBefore people begin jump me and call me anti american I will point out that US wasnt the only nation that supported Saddam in the 80s. But since the question specific relate to US and Iraq I have limited the answer or more correctly my point view in the issue. |
Whats the mesage behind American Idiot? They are voicing their opinion on the current state of the US media. More particularly how they deem it to be a propoganda machine for the Bush agenda (red neck agenda) that has done a very good job of keeping people scared and in a state of hysteria regarding the War on Terror. They are asking people to wake up and see the light and stop this media/government control of thought and reason - hence I don't want to be no American Idiot |
Is there a formula for choosing when to stop checking the price of goods? I recall reading years ago that if you want to buy petrol/gasoline at the cheapest price you are to buy it at the first service station whose price is lower than that of the first service station you see. Is there any truth in that suggestion? My idea is negative. |
what is a blackhole? A black hole is a concentration of mass great enough that the force of gravity prevents anything from escaping it except through quantum tunneling behavior (known as Hawking Radiation). The gravitational field is so strong that the escape velocity near it exceeds the speed of light. This implies that nothing not even light can escape its gravity hence the word black. The term black hole is widespread even though it does not refer to a hole in the usual sense but rather a region of space from which nothing can return. |
Is there a Firefox extension that will notify you to when a website has updated? It's easy for websites with an RSS feed but what about for others? I do not know of any that would notify you when a website changes. I think the reason for that is with so many websites that have dynamic data it would become monotonous when you are notified everytime a date changes or some subtle part of a website changes. \n\nWebsites owners and website visitors are more apt to utilize syndication feeds on thier sites you might have heard of RSS or ATOM links. These are ways for a website to publish when new pertinent information is published. Firefox has built in support for RSS/ATOM feeds with the Live Bookmark feature. THere are some options for Internet Explorer as well.\n\nHope this helps. |

How to read mind correctly? Are there tips for mind reading? NVC\nNon Verbal Communication study it we all use it unconsciously (most of the time).\n\nWhen we lie (creatively/imaginatively) we access different parts of the brain to re-calling (knowledge). People often exhibit micro-gestures such as a quick eye-movement to to left or right which can reveal this if you're paying attention\n\nIn the UK there is a TV entertainer who is just bizzare at this\n\nDark side warning... do not stray young Jedi |

how to choice lcd or monitar tv for computers? Basically if you are going to do any gaming or applications that require a fast response time you will want something that has a response time of less than or around 16ms and if it isn't you may experience a ghosting effect which causes blurry images on fast moving sequences. But I'll tell you this is subjective. My 17 Samsung monitor has a refresh rate of 35ms and I have never noticed any ghosting with games such as Half Life 2 or Doom 3. Some people are more sensitive to it than others so if you aren't sure look at the monitor in a store before you buy. |
How do you inscribe a reular square in a circle? How would you inscribe an octagon in a circle? To incribe a regular quadrilateral (ie sqare) into a circle with only a compass and straight edge do the following:\n\n1. Draw a circle. Label the center A.\n\n2. Draw a diameter of the circle by placing your straight edge on the center of the circle. Label the points where the diameter intersects the circle as B and C.\n\n3. Set your compass to a wider amount than you used to draw your circle.\n\n4. Without adjusting your compass draw a circle with B as the center. \n\n5. Without adjusting your compass draw another circle with C as the center. \n\n6. Your two new circles will intersect at two points. Use your straight edge to draw a line through these two points.\n\n7. This new line will intersect the original circle at two points. Label those points as D and E. \n\n8. B C D and E are the corners of your inscribed square. You can use your straight edge to draw the edges of the square.\n\nReason this works:\n\nIn steps 4 through 6 you contructed the perpendicular bisector to the diameter of the original circle.\n \nThis means that segment DE is a diameter of the orignal circle (since it passes through the center of the circle). This also means segment BC and DE form a right angle. \n\nIf you look at triangles BAD and DAC; BA AD AC are all radii of the original circle (and thus the same length). Therefore the triangles are exact copies of each other and BD and DC are the same legth. This logic will show you that all the sides are the same length.\n\nAngle DBE inscribes one half of the original circle since DE is the diameter of the circle. This makes DBE a right angle. Similar logic will show you all angles of your square are right angles. \n\nSince your sqare has all equal sides and all equal angles it is a square. |
What is the best speed/distance running watch? Is GPS or footpod technology more accurate? I have a Garmin Forerunner 201 and love it. The good thing about GPS vs a footpod is that you don't have to calibrate it. However if there are a lot of trees or other interference the GPS signal doesn't come thru all the time. The 205 and 305 are supposed to have stronger reception. |

When is a child considered to be ready to begin learning how to read? I'm not talking about maturity or age. I'm referring to specific skills or understandings a child needs in order to make sense of written language. They have to be able to match symbols categorize objects match beginning letters to pictures (i.e. sounding out letters) find patterns distinguish letters from numerals and shapes and also be starting to put letters together to form words. When I see a child accomplish these goals I send them home with their first reading book. I teach 4/5's Pre-k. |

what do you think about iran 's leader? what do you think about iran 's leader? about ayatollah khamenei rafsanjani khatami and mesterpiece of iranian leader mahmood ahmadinejad He's obviously someone who should be watched very carefully by sane people mostly because he can be regarded as crazy and dangerous. He said that Israel should be wiped off the face of the planet for one thing and then in order to try to backpeddle from that he said that they should all move to Europe. This is obviously a guy who might not be able of making reasonable decisions especially when he sees the world in such a unreasonable viewpoint. |

Will Colleges refuse to accept me if I have superb grades but am failing math? I've always had a 3.7 or higher GPA but now I'm taking Pre-Calc and failing it. I'm scared that colleges will either see this fact and turn me down because of it or not see it at all and only look at my GPA which has been falling because of the class therefore making me inadequate for accpetance in some colleges. It depends. Colleges will not just look at your grades and GPA. There are other factors that they include. If you go to their website they should have a brief outline of what they are going to look at (i.e. SAT scores involvement in & out of school etc..) Most likely I believe it's the essay that counts; it can either make or break you. Plus you have to consider that there are a lot of people you are competiting with. If you haven't sent in the application yet try and talk to your teacher and both of you guys may come up with a solution about how to improve your grades. |
What is needed to get a trademark? I have a logo I want to trademark how do I go about doing this.. I went to the Trademark website and it truely looks like a nightmare! Its really not as bad as you think. I assume you have gone here: http://www.uspto.gov/main/trademarks.htm\nDon't let the huge amount of data on these pages confuse you. To file for a trademark logo direct your browser to this page: http://www.uspto.gov/teas/index.html and click on Apply for a new Mark. then click on \nTrademark/Servicemark Application Principal Register\nThe filing fee for the TEAS form is $325 per class of goods and/or services so essentially $325. \nOnce you have completed this application keep the contact phone #'s and email addresses to reach the departments that will be reviewing your application. The process can easily take up to 6 months but the good news is that once you are in the system this will supercede anyone else from filing for a similar trademark. Just stay on them. Call/email at least monthly. As long as no one else previously has applied for this trademark or currently owns the trademark go ahead and begin drawing up signage/letterhead/t-shirts etc. Don't wait 6 months for the official approval. |
What is Stem Cell? In which year treatments will be offered to the mankind with the help of Stem Cells? Stem cells give rise to normal blood components including red cells white cells and platelets. Stem cells are normally located in the bone marrow and in the blood and can be harvested for a transplant. \n\nStem cell transplants are occuring right now. It all depends on the nature of the disease or treatment as to whether they can be used. My brother has already had a stem cell transplant using his own blood and will have another one using my other brother's stem cells. He is being treated for multiple myeloma - a cancer of the plazma cell. |

What would be your ideal job and why? my ideal job would be as a msw or masters in social work. in that capacity i would like to work with at-risk-adolescents. why? because my daughter did some things when she was a teenager that required the services of a sw and i would like to help other adolescents like she was helped. but also because of a bad experience with the first social worker she had that had no compassion for anyone and i figured i could be a better sw then he was with no education. so far i got a b.a in that field and will soon start pursuing my masters. |

what is my credit score? You'll have to use one of the 3 credit agencies to get your score:\nExperian Equifax and TransUnion.\nThe free credit report from the government doesn't include your score.\n\nI personally have used http://equifax.com/ several times to get my credit score and report.\n\nI would stay way from other sites claiming to give you your credit score...stick with the 3 known and credible firms. There are a lot of sites that offer you your credit score for free but I have no idea who they are. When you're entering private/sensitive information like your social security number addresses etc...you don't want to just give it out to any site.\n\nIf you have recently taking out a mortgage or auto loan they should be able to tell you your score as well. |

What sense does it make that factorial of zero is one? It is supposed to make perfect sense. Number of ways to arrange 0 things is 1 since there are only one way doing nothing.\nNot only that this works nicely when you work with combination. There is also a generalization of factorial in real numbers and you can also get 0!=1 from the new definition of factorial in real numbers. |
how can we calculate the force of the collision & the duration of the collision? the formulas it seems your looking for are:\n\np=mv=J=Ft where p v and t actually have a the symbol delta in front of them meaning change in\n\np is momentum which equals mass times the change in velocity and J is impulse which equals force x time. Because the change in momentum is equal to the impulse you can usually set mv=Ft. You should be given the mass and velocity and either force or the change in time(duration) in order to solve for the other one. If the question is asking for both then you probably have to find force first in some other way then use that formula. If you need to find the force in some other way just think about all of Newton's laws and stuff that you've learned and use them with the rest of the information that the problem gives you and you should be able to come up with something... if not post the whole question here and ill try to help :) |

Why did the WWF change its name to WWE? Following a 2000 lawsuit from the World Wildlife Fund (also WWF) the Federation changed its name to World Wrestling Entertainment or WWE. Its parent company World Wrestling Federation Entertainment also chose to adopt this name. The lawsuit dealt with the wrestling company's breaching of an agreement with the Fund over use of the initials WWF in the United Kingdom. Rather than attempt a financial settlement with the Fund McMahon changed the name of the company. The logo was altered and a promotional campaign called Get The F Out was used to publicize this change. Also all verbal and visual references to WWF and the World Wrestling Federation logo from the Attitude era were edited out from old broadcasts. Some observers saw the new name as further acknowledgement by the company on its emphasis towards the entertainment rather than athletic aspects of professional wrestling. |
why are bill o'reilly and other conservatives crying that there is a war on christmas? its just stupid.? Historically around the turn of the century no countries fought on Christmas Day. World War I & II both took a break on Christmas day. Just out of respect for each other and the season. I'm not sure who the people are that are so bent up about this Christmas thing. As we celebrate it now it is a pagan holiday not a Christian one. Christians moved the celebration to December to combat what the felt was a day that was too much about carnal fulfillment. Guess that didn't work out so hot. |
Network Attached Server (NAS Server)? Hi I would like to buy a NAS Server for home use. The options are from Buffallo Tech Western Digital and Tritton Tech. I don't know which one to buy for what I need.\nI need to store photos videos datas music and possibly to run as FTP+HTTP server(using dyns)so people can access there and view the website and files without having my pc ON. \nI want it to work just attaching to router or Cable Modem. Thanks Actually NAS is better known as Network Attached Storage. I currently use a 160GB Buffalo LinkStation and found it extremely easy to configure and use on a day-to-day basis.\n\nThe LinkStation is a network-attached storage device but it also includes a print server attachable via one of its two USB ports and it creates a shared folder for use by anyone on your network. You can use the other USB port to attach an additional drive but you have to format it with the LinkStation first.\n\nDisk performance is limited by the network. 100 megabits per second (which is only a quarter of the raw capability of USB 2.0) so almost all of the other devices that I looked at outperformed the LinkStation handily. But the convenience of having disk storage available to all of your PCs makes the slower speed bearable. Buffalo does not currently provide centralized backup software for the LinkStation but I had no problem scheduling and initiating backups from individual PCs using Windows Backup. The network connection was more than adequate for streaming music even to multiple PCs.\n\nI referenced the following sites when I was trying to make my choice\n\nhttp://www.pcmag.com/category2/0 1874 677853 00.asp\nhttp://reviews-zdnet.com.com/Buffalo_LinkStation_120GB/4505-3382_16-30639593.html\nhttp://www.tomsnetworking.com/Reviews-207-ProdID-HDHG250LAN.php |
easiest way to transer from hard drive to 2nd hard drive?..can windows XP be used on both drives? You can have two (or more) hard drives in once machine. The second (slave) harddrive does not need to have Windows installed on it but it does need to be formatted by windows. Plug in the new harddrive boot up the machine and it will pretty much do the work for you. Then you'll see a new drive under My Computer and you can just drag and drop files between the two drives.\n\nDoes that answer the question? |
how do i FAST properly? I fast and detox once a month and it's great for your mind as well as your body. If you don't work on a Sunday I think it would be a good day to start. I start the day with a long bath and throughout the day I try to keep active. As I'm not a big eater it doesn't bother me if I don't eat food for a week. For the rest of the week I drink water fresh juice and herbal teas. Water helps to break down body fat and get rid of access waste so by the end of the week I have lost about 1/2 stone and feel so much lighter. If a week seems like a long time to go without anything to eat have raw vegetables. This is what I have when coming of a detoxing fast. I also find the hardest thing to eat and drink after is dairy produces. They seem to have a heavier taste when you haven't had them for a while. Not only will you loose both weight and toxins from your body you will also feel more happier and alert. \n\nDepending on your age weight and lifestyle if you have any concerns maybe a visit to your doctor would be advisable if you had any real concerns. |
I have 9.99 Gb of 1st partation when taking the properties its only 5.59 used and showing only 415 mb left? I have 9.99 GB of C Drive partation(NTFS) now its saying low disk space so i checked its only 415 MB left...when i opened the C Drive and take the properties of all files including the hidden files its only used 5.59 GB. why this happen.. checked by scan disk beached free space nothing happens... anybody can help me The rest of the partition may be used by the swap file which is not reported in Explorer. Try reducing your swap file size.\n\nAlso depending upon the sizes of your files they may be taking up more disk space than the actual totals of the files. In short the file system can only write in fixed-length blocks (I think NTFS default is 64K). If a file does not occupy the entire block the rest is not used...the next file must be written to another block. If you have tons of small files on your hard drive you may be using much more than the total sizes of the files. There's not much way around this other than moving the files to another partition with smaller block sizes.\n\nFinally some applications (like Photoshop) actually reserve block of space on the hard drive as private swap space. This guarantees the application will always have a work area on the disk while its operating. Check with the software vendor for some of your applicationsto see if this is the case and if you can either resize the reserved block or move it to another drive. |
how do i start a business? It all depends on the type of business you are going to start. \n\nWell first of all to start any business you need a fair amount of capital. Either you put in your own capital or take out a bank loan. Next You should hire people to work for You (Again this depends on the type of business your going to start). Another important thing is the place where your gonna start your business. It should be placed in a strategic place so that when it comes to marketing your product you'll be on top. \n\nWell this is a really rough gudeline to starting a business. You have to look in to many other aspects before you can start a business. |

Syracuse used to have an NBA team. Please give all of the details that you know about this team.? NBL Years:\n \n1946/47: Owned by Italian Immigrant Danny Biasone the Syracuse Nationals begin play in the National Basketball League in the same year professional basketball was finally gaining some legitimacy with the rival Basketball Association of America that was based in large cities like New York and Philadelphia. While in the NBL with teams largely consisting of small Midwestern towns the Nationals put together a 21-23 record finishing in 4th place. In the playoffs the Nats would be beaten by the fellow upstate neighbor Rochester Royals in 4 years.\n\n1947/48: In their second season the Nationals would struggle finishing in 5th place with a 24-36 record. Despite their struggles the Nats would make the playoffs getting swept by the Anderson Duffey Packers in 3 straight games.\n\n1948/49: Several teams begin to leave the NBL for the BAA as the foundation for a merger is laid. Staying in the NBL the Nationals sign AL Cervi to be player coach as Dolph Schayes makes his professional debut leading the Nats to a winning record for the first time with a record of 40-23. In the playoffs the Nationals would make quick work of the Hammond Calumet Buccaneers winning the series in 2 straight games. However in the semifinals the Nats would fall to the Anderson Duffey Packers for the second straight season in 4 games. Following the season the remaining NBL teams would join the BAA as the two leagues merged and became the NBA.\n\nNBA Years:\n \n1949/50: The Nationals were an instant success in the NBA winning the Eastern Division with a league best record of 51-13. In the playoffs the Nationals would continue to play solid basketball beating the Philadelphia Warriors in 2 straight. Moving on to the Eastern Finals the Nationals would battle the New York Knickerbockers beating their big city rivals in a 3-game series. Moving on to the NBA Finals the Nationals would face fellow NBL alum Minneapolis Lakers. In Game 1 of the Finals the Nats would lose just their 2nd home game of the season 68-66. The Nats would not recover as they fell behind 3 games to 1 before falling in 6 games. \n\n1950/51: Despite several teams leaving the NBA to reorganize the NBL the Nationals deiced to stay put. In their second NBA season the Nationals would play mediocre basketball all season finishing in 4th place with a record of 32-34. However in the playoffs the Nats would play their best basketball of the season as they stunned the 1st place Philadelphia Warriors in 2 straight taking Game 1 on the road in overtime 91-89. However in the Eastern Finals the Nationals would be beaten by the New York Knickerbockers in a hard fought 5-game series losing the finale by just 2 points. \n\n1951/52: Al Cervi playing less and coaching more emphasized a patient offense and a scrappy defense which led the league by yielding a stingy 79.5 points per game as the Nationals won the Eastern Division with a solid 40-26 record. In the playoffs the Nats would knock the Philadelphia Warriors off again in a 3-game series. However in the Eastern Finals the Nats would fall to the New York Knickerbockers again dropping the series in 4 games.\n\n1952/53: The Nationals would finish in 2nd place in a hard fought 3-way battle for first place in the Eastern Division with a record of 47-24. In the playoffs the Nationals would face the Boston Celtics dropping Game 1 at home 87-81. Needing a win in Boston to keep their hopes alive the Nationals would take the Celtics deep in to overtime before losing in quadruple OT 111-105 in what remains the longest game in NBA history.\n\n1953/54: The Nationals acquire Alex Groza and Ralph Beard as the Indianapolis Olympians folded leaving the NBA with just 9 teams. Once again the Nationals would battle for the Division title falling 2 games short with a 42-30 record. In the playoffs the Nats would win all 4 games of a round robin tournament involving the 3 playoff teams from the East. In the Eastern Finals the Nats would stay hot beating |
can hernias cause bowel problems? Hernias are outpouching of the intestinal wall through the muscular layer of the abdomen. Hernias can occur in many areas of the abdomen and can be harmless or very serious. When hernias become strangulated (trapped bewteen the muscular wall and blood supply is cut off) then the bowel can lose its blood supply and die... this condition requires immediate surgery. Minor hernias are usually more of a cosmetic thing and do not cause much serious problems (unless they strangulate) but if you ever have to have surgery on your stomach (gall bladder appendix etc) then you should have it fixed at the same time. |

Why are chinese products so cheap? ...how come other countries can not manufacture so cheaply A lot of workers from rural areas travel to bigger manufacturing cities providing a nearly inexhaustible source of cheap labor. The factories themselves are modern assembly lines. \n\nGenerally product development costs are not high since there is little new product development and most products are based on known or copied designs. China has been the most successful country is terms of duplicating other countries designs with almost comparably quality (although usually slightly inferior) at a lower cost basis. |

But may I suggest adding a bit of mayo and slapping it on some bread? |

Why are spam messages still getting past my spam blockers? I have been receiving quite a few emails announcing that I have won a lottery Spammers keep changing their techniques to try and get round spam blockers. They find out what's stopping their messages getting through and change their message slightly to get them through. This has led to some spammers putting poems or book snippets into their e-mails. Once enough of the new types of messages are marked as spam your spam filter will be able to block these new messages.\n\nThe Yahoo link below gives some advice on dealing with spam but the general rules apply no matter what you use to read your e-mail. |

What is the estimated percentage of people who are gay in the world? What about the US? I know there's the 1/10 answer but I've heard that's been shown incorrect currently...

These numbers are based on figures provided by a broad-based coalition of gay rights organizations and homosexual advocacy groups.” \nSee references below: |

why did you steal this concept from askfreddy.com ? AskFreddy.com has been doing this for over a year - I love you guys- but this is a rip-off concept. Hi. The Yahoo!Answers team here. We think that the basic concept of people asking and answering questions for free in an online forum is as old as the Internet. We know there are a lot of sites that are similar to this service. But we think what will really differentiate us is whether we are more or less successful in hosting a service that will get you the answers to your questions. And we will strive to do the best we can! |

Have you changed your mind about the war in Iraq in the last days or weeks? No because I've been pro all along.\n\nMy mind has changed about a related concern though: up until recently I viewed the American Democratic party as an embarrassment and had little concern for them. \n\nNow after the stunning showing the Iraqi people made in this last election so soon after the defeatist words of Howard Dean and other Democrats I truly worry for the future of the Democratic party.\n\nI mean I may have voted Reuplican in the last election but I think it would be really really bad to have only one viable political party in this country.\n\nSo instead of mostly feeling embarrassed for the Democratic party I am mainly fearful for their future. |

calling all ye math experts? The mum is 21 years older than the child.\n In 6 years from now the mum will be 5 times as old\n as the child.\n \nQuestion :\nWhere's the father? Let the child be 'x' years old right now.\nSo the mum must be x + 21 years of age.\nSo After 6 years the mum will be x + 21 + 6 = x + 27\nyears old and the child will be (x + 6) years old\nat that time.\nSo from the given information we get \n5*(x+6)=x+27\nTherefore \n5*x+30=x+27\nTherefore \n4*x=27-30\nTherefore\n4*x=-3\nTherefore\nx=-3/4\nBut -3/4 years = -3/4 * 12 months\ni.e. the child is -9 months right now.\nThis means the child is just getting conceived.\nHence the father of the child must be in bed with\nthe mum right now! |
what is the definition of black sheep of the family mean? I am having a hard time finding all the information on what exactly the black sheep of the family means It is the name they use for the person that almost every family has... \n\nIt doesnt necc. mean a bad thing but it is that one person who always goes his or her own way...whichis often the opposite way that everyone else went..\n\nExample: Father was a Navy man his father was a Navy man and six fathers before him... all your borthers join the Navy but as soon as you get out of HS you apply to Art School insisting you are creative and dont want to be trained to kill\n\nWhile there is nothing wrong with that becasue you were following your own path you totally went against the generations of standards in the family... hence your the black sheep.... |

What is the deadliest bite in the world? There are varying opinions on the topic.\n\nSpiders and Snakes have the most venomous but you have to consider not only the strength of venom but the quanity delivered the frequency of a human encountering a specific species and the aggressiveness of the species. \n\nThat being said the most dangerous snakes and spiders are almost all in Australia. The Taipan or Brown snakes and the Funnel Web Spider top out the lists generally.\n\nThe most forceful bite although non venomous is the aligator snapping turtle. You can see this performed on National Geographic's Dangerous Encounters: Bite Force (look for a showing in the future). They showed this to be stronger than that of the Great White Shark a common misconception of the most forceful bite. |

Half your family doesnt like your girlfriend and the other half does do I marry because I love her so much? The question is why doesn't your family like her is it justified. Sometimes we refuse to see things others can because we are blinded by love. I am not a cold person I am a romantic at heart and I believe that love conquers all but in the same aspect protect YOUR heart in the process by talking with your family about their reasons. And remember they will always be your family and if their reasons are bogus then marry her because true love is hard to find. |

What came first the chicken or the egg? or even greater why did the chicken cross the road This is actually very easy to answer based on evolution the egg had to come first. Evolution works like this: There are slight changes in the genetic information of the sex cells (i.e. eggs and sperm) of individuals that are passed on to the offspring of any two parents. These changes in the genetic makeup are called mutations. Mutations can either have: 1) A deleterious effect on the offspring (genetic disorders may arise many times these are lethal); 2) sometimes these mutations may be advantageous making an individual more fit than its neighbors (this is sometimes referred to as conferring an advantage); or 3) these mutations can have no effect making no change from parent to progeny.\n\nIn the case of the chicken it must have evolved from something else that became less fit than the chicken and eventually becoming extinct. The chicken became a chicken from this other organism through mutations that built up over time in subsequent generations. However whatever the genetic makeup that finally became defined as a chicken that individual was first conceived and developed in an egg before being hatched. The egg and sperm that fused to produce the chicken didn't bypass the period of gestation within an egg that had developed in the bird family millions of years before the chicken came along.\n\nSo the simple answer to this question is the egg came first -- unless you believe in fairy tales? |
