2,101	1Science & Mathematics	What is the total mass of the Earth? is it constant or is it increasing?		To put it plainly and simply quoted: \n\nF = Gm1m2/r2 = ma\n\nGm/r2 = g\n\nm = gr2/G\n\nm = (9.8 m/s2)(6.37 x 106 m)2/(6.673 x 10-11 Nm2/kg2) \n\nm = 5.96 x 1024 kg\n\nThe Earth gains mass each day, as a result of incoming debris from space. This occurs in the forms of "falling stars", or meteors, on a dark night. The actual amount of added material depends on each study, though it is estimated that 10 to the 8th power kilograms of in-falling matter accumulates every day. The seemingly large amount, however, is insignificant to the Earth's total mass. The Earth adds an estimated one quadrillionth of one percent to its weight each day.

When the article was brought to Seigenthaler's attention he wrote an article in USA Today criticizing Wikipedia. This opened the flood gates and lead to many complants concerning how Wikipedia works.

2,108	6Business & Finance	best way to invest money...risks doesnt matter for me?		It's been mathematically "proven" that you can get high returns AND reduce your risk by buying diverse high-risk investments which have no correllation.\n\nAlso, Equities (Stocks) have had some of the best returns historically, and are still considered a very good investment.\n\nOf course you don't want to be STUPID about it and buy the riskiest stuff possible. Get some AGGRESSIVE mutual funds with low fees (Vanguard has some). Spread your money around to highly aggressive funds that have little correllation. For instance, some Domestic High Growth, some Foreign aggressive growth, maybe some Real Estate Trust Funds, some High Tech, Some Health Care.\n\nLook at the historic returns of the sector and the fund. Look too at the risk vs. return. If, as you say, risks don't matter, then go for high return funds, with a reasonable risk. And spread it around - but make sure you spread it around to different TYPES of investments - all that are aggressive, but some that move contrary to each other (like foreign vs domestic, or REITs vs Stock)

2,124	4Computers & Internet	What's the best way to IM between two computers with unreliable connections?	I regularly need to IM with someone whose net connection is unreliable - it drops packets frequently. I've tried a number of messengers - Yahoo silently loses messages, as does GTalk. MSN usually notices that it can't deliver, but sometimes silently loses messages, and never re-attempts delivery. I haven't tried AIM yet (I've had a little bit of trouble with it and my firewall), but I don't have a good reason to expect it will work better.\n\nIs there a program I should be using to communicate? The ideal solution would notify me when it fails to deliver a message, and continue trying to send it for a period of time, but not spam the recipient with multiple identical messages when the packets go through. I need to run it on Windows XP, and having to run my own server is a disadvantage, but one I can handle.\n\nDoes such a program exist, or should I dig out my networking books and start looking into reliability engineering?	I have found the new Yahoo Messagenger to be good at what you need. Now that it has a "memory" of the messages sent by the person, and it has the feature of waiting for the message to be read by the reciever. It works VERY well on 4 of my computers, but has problems with my VAIO computer with the XP MEDIA os. Make sure you have the new version at:\nhttp://messenger.yahoo.com/ to recieve all of the features.

2,130	9Politics & Government	What is meant by the legal term "withdraw capias"?		"Capias" means "that you take" in Latin. It is a term defined as "[a]ny of various types of writs that require an officer to take a named defendant into custody. A capias is often issued when a respondent fails to appear or when an obligor has failed to pay child support." A motion to "withdraw capias" means that a party requests that the capias order be revoked. Sometimes the defendant makes the request after he has met the conditions that led to the capias order in the first place; sometimes the victim makes the request if he chooses to stop the proceedings against the defendant for any reason, such as lack of desire to proceed or because the defendant has met the victim's demands; sometimes the state enters the motion as part of a settlement agreement.

2,140	6Business & Finance	is gold a good investment even though it has it a high?		gold always goes up no matter what. and it always goes from about 285 to about 380. so, right now, its high, but not high enough. It will go further. All of the jewelry stores have told me before it has gone past 400, so believe me, if it was too high, why would it even go past 420? or even 500? I am guessing, that it will go alot past 600. this is just my opinion. there is alot of upside investing in it. people think its too high, but it hasnt reach its level yet. we still have about or at least a year on the rise.
2,141	1Science & Mathematics	While HNO3 is a stronger acid than HCl, it can't be used to dissolved razor blade, why?		Nitric acid is a highly oxidizing acid, and when combined with stainless steel will promote oxidation of the chromium content of the steel, creating a film that will protect the steel from further attack by the acid. Stainless steel is a recommended container for nitric acid. \n\nHydrochloric acid is less likely to undergo this interfering oxidation reduction reaction, leaving the steel unprotected, so even though it is a weaker acid, it will dissolve the steel. \n\nSometimes the turtle wins the race.

Noble gas configuration is with the outer electron orbital filled.

2,147	7Entertainment & Music	Is it true that Stairway To Heaven holds a satanic mesage when played bacwards?	My friend told me that when you play Stairway To Heaven backwards, it says oh my dear saten.	If there was a top 40 of backmasked songs, then "Stairway to Heaven" by Led Zeppelin would be at the top. This song contains many backward messages. Here is one of them that occurs right at the very end of the song.. It says: "Play backwards. Hear words sung."\n\nHowever, by far the most controversial backward messages on the song can be found in the following soundtrack. They say backwards: "Its my sweet Satan. The one whose little path would make me sad whose power is fake (indeterminate gibberish - some people claim this says, He gives you 666) There was a little toolshed where he made us suffer, sad Satan."\n\nA complete analysis of the reversals in this song and their meanings can be found in this extract: Stairway to Where? from the book, "Reverse Speech: Voices From The Unconscious." This book contains an extensive and historical analysis of many other reversals and backward messages in music.

Optimize your page's content and incoming links so that they contain the keywords you are targetting.

Also make sure that your content has plenty of the words that you want searchers to find, in different styles, such as bold, headings, and lots of variations of the keywords.\n\nBe careful not to make your pages look spammy however; You want to provide quality content above all else, and that's usually what search engines love best.

2,157	5Sports	Should the Pistons trade Ron Artest?		Why would the Pistons want Ron Artest? They're already the best team in the East. Their success, just like the Spurs out West, is built on team chemistry. On your list of top team chemistry killers, Artest has to be at or near the top with the likes of Ruben Patterson, Latrell Spreewell, and Kobe Bryant.\n\nAlso, they just made a large investment in Tayshaun Prince, who is overacheiving because he's found a team where his skill set is an exact match for the role they need him to play. (This coming from a die-hard UK fan, BTW.) \n\nIf it ain't broke, don't fix it.

2,159	4Computers & Internet	How do you like picking a best answer?	Do you prefer picking yourself or putting it to a vote? And if you pick yourself, do you use any criteria to pick a best answer?	It's hard to pick the perfect answer, especially since some of the answers are subjective. For instance, if I asked someone for what they thought the BEST place to eat was, I can't really qualify that. So that would probably be left up to a vote and take a consensus. \n\nAs for picking answers myself, if there appears to be a lot of thought put into the answer and it includes sources, all the better. The questions that I've personally asked, thus far, usually there has been one answer that typifies this. Now, if I received several long responses that have merit, I would be inclined to let the users pick.
2,160	6Business & Finance	Titanic Questions?	How could an iceberg hit an unsinkable ship?\nWhy did lower classes have to wait?Isn't it the crews fault for not letting them go and for almost 1,500 people dying?Why didn't Titanic have enough life belts and life boats?Why didn't they prepare for something like this? Finally, why did people want to take and sell treasures found on the Titanic? Shouldn't Titanc's victims rest in peace?	The answers to your questions in the order asked:\n\n(1) Any ship can hit an iceberg, it's not like the iceberg is living and could have moved out of the way because it WANTED to. \n\n(2) In those days, the poor were considered "third class" individuals, and so on the ship were put into the "third class" accomodations. As such, the crew was directed to make sure the first and second class passengers were attended to first. That wasn't right to do at all, but that's just how it was. \n\n(3) It's mainly the fault of the shipbuilders who only put 20 lifeboats on the ship, which wasn't enough for half the passengers. Sharing in the blame would have to be the officer who tried to turn the ship when it was too close already, since the ship wouldn't have sunk if it hit the iceberg head on. It was also the captain's fault for not taking the necessary precautions with the ship when he knew they were headed directly into an ice field.\n\n(4) The shipbuilders wanted as much "ooh and ahh" over the ship as they could get from the public. That's why they fostered the belief that the ship was "unsinkable", and that the ship itself was one big lifeboat. Those in charge also felt that the extra boats would have cluttered up the ship's deck. \n\n(5) They didn't prepare for this because they were arrogant and felt that they had the greatest ship in all of history and nothing would ever happen to it.\n\n(6) Greed is why people tried to take and sell Titanic artifacts. It was all about the $$$. \n\n(7) Titanic's victims are long-gone. Either they were consumed by organisms at the bottom of the ocean, or like anyone in the grave, their bodies returned to the dust.

Atoms with an excess of electrons are called negative ions. Those with missing electrons are called positive ions. There is an electrical field that flows between opposite charges, causing an electrical force. This results in an attractive force between the opposite charges and a repelling force between like charges.

What is the total mass of the Earth? is it constant or is it increasing?

To put it plainly and simply quoted: \n\nF = Gm1m2/r2 = ma\n\nGm/r2 = g\n\nm = gr2/G\n\nm = (9.8 m/s2)(6.37 x 106 m)2/(6.673 x 10-11 Nm2/kg2) \n\nm = 5.96 x 1024 kg\n\nThe Earth gains mass each day, as a result of incoming debris from space. This occurs in the forms of "falling stars", or meteors, on a dark night. The actual amount of added material depends on each study, though it is estimated that 10 to the 8th power kilograms of in-falling matter accumulates every day. The seemingly large amount, however, is insignificant to the Earth's total mass. The Earth adds an estimated one quadrillionth of one percent to its weight each day.

When the article was brought to Seigenthaler's attention he wrote an article in USA Today criticizing Wikipedia.

best way to invest money...risks doesnt matter for me?

It's been mathematically "proven" that you can get high returns AND reduce your risk by buying diverse high-risk investments which have no correllation.\n\nAlso, Equities (Stocks) have had some of the best returns historically, and are still considered a very good investment.\n\nOf course you don't want to be STUPID about it and buy the riskiest stuff possible. Get some AGGRESSIVE mutual funds with low fees (Vanguard has some). Spread your money around to highly aggressive funds that have little correllation. For instance, some Domestic High Growth, some Foreign aggressive growth, maybe some Real Estate Trust Funds, some High Tech, Some Health Care.\n\nLook at the historic returns of the sector and the fund. Look too at the risk vs. return. If, as you say, risks don't matter, then go for high return funds, with a reasonable risk. And spread it around - but make sure you spread it around to different TYPES of investments - all that are aggressive, but some that move contrary to each other (like foreign vs domestic, or REITs vs Stock)

What's the best way to IM between two computers with unreliable connections?

I regularly need to IM with someone whose net connection is unreliable - it drops packets frequently. I've tried a number of messengers - Yahoo silently loses messages, as does GTalk. MSN usually notices that it can't deliver, but sometimes silently loses messages, and never re-attempts delivery. I haven't tried AIM yet (I've had a little bit of trouble with it and my firewall), but I don't have a good reason to expect it will work better.\n\nIs there a program I should be using to communicate? The ideal solution would notify me when it fails to deliver a message, and continue trying to send it for a period of time, but not spam the recipient with multiple identical messages when the packets go through. I need to run it on Windows XP, and having to run my own server is a disadvantage, but one I can handle.\n\nDoes such a program exist, or should I dig out my networking books and start looking into reliability engineering?

I have found the new Yahoo Messagenger to be good at what you need. Now that it has a "memory" of the messages sent by the person, and it has the feature of waiting for the message to be read by the reciever. It works VERY well on 4 of my computers, but has problems with my VAIO computer with the XP MEDIA os. Make sure you have the new version at:\nhttp://messenger.yahoo.com/ to recieve all of the features.

What is meant by the legal term "withdraw capias"?

"Capias" means "that you take" in Latin. It is a term defined as "[a]ny of various types of writs that require an officer to take a named defendant into custody. A capias is often issued when a respondent fails to appear or when an obligor has failed to pay child support." A motion to "withdraw capias" means that a party requests that the capias order be revoked. Sometimes the defendant makes the request after he has met the conditions that led to the capias order in the first place; sometimes the victim makes the request if he chooses to stop the proceedings against the defendant for any reason, such as lack of desire to proceed or because the defendant has met the victim's demands; sometimes the state enters the motion as part of a settlement agreement.

Stainless steel is a recommended container for nitric acid. \n\nHydrochloric acid is less likely to undergo this interfering oxidation reduction reaction, leaving the steel unprotected, so even though it is a weaker acid, it will dissolve the steel. \n\nSometimes the turtle wins the race.

Is it true that Stairway To Heaven holds a satanic mesage when played bacwards?

My friend told me that when you play Stairway To Heaven backwards, it says oh my dear saten.

If there was a top 40 of backmasked songs, then "Stairway to Heaven" by Led Zeppelin would be at the top. This song contains many backward messages. Here is one of them that occurs right at the very end of the song.. It says: "Play backwards. Hear words sung."\n\nHowever, by far the most controversial backward messages on the song can be found in the following soundtrack. They say backwards: "Its my sweet Satan. The one whose little path would make me sad whose power is fake (indeterminate gibberish - some people claim this says, He gives you 666) There was a little toolshed where he made us suffer, sad Satan."\n\nA complete analysis of the reversals in this song and their meanings can be found in this extract: Stairway to Where? from the book, "Reverse Speech: Voices From The Unconscious." This book contains an extensive and historical analysis of many other reversals and backward messages in music.

Optimize your page's content and incoming links so that they contain the keywords you are targetting. Example: if you are trying to get traffic from people searching for "Xbox tips and cheats" then try to get other (it's best if they are related to your topic) websites to link to you using variations on that text. Also make sure that your content has plenty of the words that you want searchers to find, in different styles, such as bold, headings, and lots of variations of the keywords.\n\nBe careful not to make your pages look spammy however; You want to provide quality content above all else, and that's usually what search engines love best.

How do you like picking a best answer?

Do you prefer picking yourself or putting it to a vote? And if you pick yourself, do you use any criteria to pick a best answer?

It's hard to pick the perfect answer, especially since some of the answers are subjective. For instance, if I asked someone for what they thought the BEST place to eat was, I can't really qualify that. So that would probably be left up to a vote and take a consensus. \n\nAs for picking answers myself, if there appears to be a lot of thought put into the answer and it includes sources, all the better. The questions that I've personally asked, thus far, usually there has been one answer that typifies this. Now, if I received several long responses that have merit, I would be inclined to let the users pick.

Titanic Questions?

How could an iceberg hit an unsinkable ship?\nWhy did lower classes have to wait?Isn't it the crews fault for not letting them go and for almost 1,500 people dying?Why didn't Titanic have enough life belts and life boats?Why didn't they prepare for something like this? Finally, why did people want to take and sell treasures found on the Titanic? Shouldn't Titanc's victims rest in peace?

The answers to your questions in the order asked:\n\n(1) Any ship can hit an iceberg, it's not like the iceberg is living and could have moved out of the way because it WANTED to. \n\n(2) In those days, the poor were considered "third class" individuals, and so on the ship were put into the "third class" accomodations. As such, the crew was directed to make sure the first and second class passengers were attended to first. That wasn't right to do at all, but that's just how it was. \n\n(3) It's mainly the fault of the shipbuilders who only put 20 lifeboats on the ship, which wasn't enough for half the passengers. Sharing in the blame would have to be the officer who tried to turn the ship when it was too close already, since the ship wouldn't have sunk if it hit the iceberg head on. It was also the captain's fault for not taking the necessary precautions with the ship when he knew they were headed directly into an ice field.\n\n(4) The shipbuilders wanted as much "ooh and ahh" over the ship as they could get from the public. That's why they fostered the belief that the ship was "unsinkable", and that the ship itself was one big lifeboat. Those in charge also felt that the extra boats would have cluttered up the ship's deck. \n\n(5) They didn't prepare for this because they were arrogant and felt that they had the greatest ship in all of history and nothing would ever happen to it.\n\n(6) Greed is why people tried to take and sell Titanic artifacts. It was all about the $$$. \n\n(7) Titanic's victims are long-gone. Either they were consumed by organisms at the bottom of the ocean, or like anyone in the grave, their bodies returned to the dust.

why do elements of oppisite charges attract?

in chemistry element attract why

One property of matter is the electric charge. Most sub-atomic particles have either a positive (+) or negative (-) electrical charge. Those that don't are considered neutral. The most common charged particles are the electron and proton. Atoms with an excess of electrons are called negative ions. Those with missing electrons are called positive ions. There is an electrical field that flows between opposite charges, causing an electrical force. This results in an attractive force between the opposite charges and a repelling force between like charges.

A mistake I could have made, was doing a backup before I tried to remove it for the first time. I've taken it out time after time with anti spyware and antivirus programs and it keeps showing up.
