what is the meaning of life? | CHEESE!\n\nOr if you want a more philisophical answer:\n\n"What is the meaning of life?" is a question many people ask themselves. Some people believe that the meaning of life is:\n\n...to accumulate wealth \n...to achieve a supernatural connection within the natural context \n...to advance natural human evolution, or to contribute to the gene pool of the human race \n...to advance technological evolution, or to actively develop the future human \n...to be without question, or to keep asking questions \n...to become God, or God-like \n...to compete or co-operate with others \n...to contribute to collective meaning ("we" or "us") without having individual meaning ("I" or "me") \n...to destroy others who harm you, or to practice nonviolence and nonresistance \n...to die, or become a martyr \n...to experience existence from an infinite number of perspectives in order to expand the consciousness of all there is (i.e. God) \n...to express compassion \n...to find inner peace \n...to gain and exercise power \n...to give and receive love \n...to give life meaning (an example of antimetabole) \n...to learn and find enlightenment \n...to leave a legacy, such as a work of art or a book \n...to live in peace with each other, and in harmony with our natural environment (see utopia) \n...to produce offspring through sexual reproduction \n...to produce useful structure in the universe over and above consumption (see net creativity) \n...to pursue a dream, vision, or destiny \n...to relate, connect, or achieve unity with others \n...to seek and acquire virtue, to live a virtuous life \n...to seek and find beauty \n...to seek freedom, either physically, mentally, financially, or spiritually \n...to seek happiness and flourish, experience pleasure or celebrate \n...to seek truth, knowledge, understanding, or wisdom \n...to serve others, or do good deeds \n...to simply live until one dies (there is no universal or celestial purpose, existence has no meaning beyond which one chooses to give it) \n...to survive, including the pursuit of immortality through scientific means (see life extension) \n...to try to understand the meaning of life \n...to work for justice and democracy \n...to worship, serve, or achieve union with God \n...or some combination of the above |
Compare winamp, windows media player, real player performancewise!? | Per experience, Windows Media Player is a resource hog (but Media Player Classic is pretty light!). Winamp (with classical skins), take up the least amount of memory, while Real Player in my experience is the worst of the bunch. |

Does God appreciate that we question Him? | "Do not believe in anything simply because you have heard it.\n\nDo not believe simply because it has been handed down for many generations.\n\nDo not believe in anything simply because it is spoken and rumored by many.\n\nDo not believe in anything simply because it is written in Holy Scriptures.\n\nDo not believe in anything merely on the authority of Teachers, elders or wise men.\n\nBelieve only after careful observation and analysis, when you find that it agrees with reason and is conducive to the good and benefit of one and all.\n\nThen accept it and live up to it." \n\nThe Buddha on Belief - from the Kalama Sutta |

My girlfriend just told me that she was over everything, what am i to think of this? | Something seems to be missing in your story--or your girlfriend is schizoid. But seriously, it isn't really normal to fight every week, so possibly she is still angry about whatever it is you guys have been fighting about. I would think about the tone you may have had when you asked her to clean, I imagine you were upset because she wasn't helping, and that may have set her off. If you want to save your relationship talk to her like an adult to an adult and try to figure out how to resolve your problems in a positive way. Try to avoid accusatory and patronizing statements. You two are probably just having trouble adjusting to living together. Good Luck |

What are dream guides? | It's somebody which you can conjur up in a dream to help you on your way. Maybe via meditation one could train themselves to imagine somebody that they trust appearing and offering advice - then maybe by reciting some phrase at the same time as when they appear one could learn to invoke the dream guide dude during real dreams |
i want to get a dna on a deceased person i know is the father of my son. and the family wont give us benefits. | The route for this would be to file a civil claim for the benefits. As part of the evidentiary process, DNA samples could be taken from his relatives and your son to determine if he is related to the deceased without exhuming the body. I would talk to a local civil estate lawyer. |

Who knows how I can get a loan for $42,000 to cover all my debt so that it's in one payment? | One way to handle this, if you own a house, would be to get a second mortgage or refinance your current mortgage for $42,000 more than the current balance of your mortgage.\n\nIf you don't own a house and cannot get a debt consolidation loan, there is little else you can do. The best thing would be to pay as much off as you can every month (always pay more than the minimum) until you have little enough debt to get a loan. |
Do gamma rays move as a wave or as a particle? | Gamma rays have a dual property as it consists of an electromagnetic waves .. which means they are particles and at the same time waves (like the light) |
How many wise men went to see the baby Jesus? Why do we say three wise men? | The Bible doesn't tell us how many wise men actually went to see Jesus. Sometime between Jesus being born and today, people began to assume that there were 3 wise men merely because they brought three gifts: gold, frankincense, and myrrh. In reality, there were most likely more than 3, but there's no way to prove how many there actually were. |

guys pls tell me limewire is legal? | The stirctest answer is no, it is not legal because you are downloading music or files from other people's hard drive who have purchased it and are sharing it. That's the problem while you CAN get in legal trouble by downloading stuff this way, chances are the person sharing the files is going to get in trouble, if they are ever caught.\n\nIf you want to stay safe, you can download files relatively safely without getting caught, it's the sharing that gets you in the most trouble.\n\nI would say it lies in a grey area and there is no definitive answer. If you want my opinion, no it is not really legal but there is nothing in place to really stop it. |
where can i find a cd by Joan Jett/Blackhearts--I Love Rock n Roll? | Try Ebay or Amazon online...Then, if you don't find it there maybe you can try Best Buy or Manifest (Not sure if you have that where you live?!?!) But they sale New, & used CD's. |
What is 'Divine Proportion'? | The divine proportion is also called the golden mean or abbreviated by the greek letter phi. The actual value is (1 + root(5))/2 or about 1.618 (the number actually never ends and is irrational, because root(5) is irrational).\n\nAs an application, say we have a line of length 1. If you had another line of length 1.618, the ratio between the two would essentially be the golden mean.\n\nThis ratio occurs almost everywhere in nature. Shells form golden spirals, the ratio from tail to dorsal fin and dorsal fin to head on a dolphin is about the golden mean, same for foot to waist and waist to head in humans. So on and so on. It also has been a dominant design principle for much of civilization. The parthenon, for instance is composed of many golden rectangles and books are often designed so that the box of text forms a golden rectangle. There is something about it that is inherently pleasing to the eye. |
If a woodchuck were to actually chuck wood, what is the quantity of the wood that would be chucked? | I despise those who don't take your question seriously. I bit my thumb at them. Fie.\n\nThe answer depends on what you mean the woodchuck, a common name for groundhogs and woodpeckers. If you mean groundhogs, then the answer is unfortunately quite a small amount of wood. My guess is probably two logs an hour. Small logs.\n\nAccording to the prominent wikipedia.org: "The name woodchuck has nothing etymologically to do with wood. It stems from an Algonquian name for the animal (possibly Narraganset), wuchak. This confusion led to the common tongue twister, 'How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood? — A woodchuck would chuck all the wood he could chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood.'" |
Could planets exist in stable orbits around binary stars? | That might depend on wether the binary stars are very close (and spinning about each other) such that they "look" almost like a simple center of gravity relative to a planet far enough away to not be affected by lets say bumps in the gravity field. Einstein told us that gravity distorts space and planets therefore merely follow the curved space layed out for them. The earth senses the gravitational pull of both the sun and say Jupiter but only the sun has a major affect because of proximity and mass. The short answer to your question is that planets can exist in stable (though irregular) orbits around binary stars depending on the curvature of space in its orbit. Hope that helps a little. |
What is the political affiliation of the two creators of South Park? | Libertarian party according to Wikipedia |
What is the best money making products to sell on ebay? | The product is only a portion of the battle. You still have to to think about your ability to sell. Then what price it will cost to obtain a certain product. Its alot of pulling and tugging to make a profit on Ebay. But, products come and go all the time. When fads hit, it also hits Ebay. When the fads are gone, those numbers also dwindle on Ebay. The other half is your ability to sell the product. I have seen so many people sell the product the wrong way, that even if it was priced low enough, nobody would bid. So, you have to figure out what drives customers to bid, regardless of the product. Your best bet is creating a product and selling it on Ebay. I have heard people selling things on Ebay that they made. I heard someone making 200 a day selling hand made cloaks. But, thats them, you have to find your own market. Um, last part about ebay is reselling a product. If you see something cheap enough to make a profit off of, then by all means buy it. See, if you buy something for $100 and sell it for $105, you only made $5 buxx. And after Ebay fees, you make "jack." But, if you can find a product for $12 dollars and sell it for $25, then you make a better profit. Now its all up to you to sell as much as you can. See? So, small stuff can be worthwhile some times. I used to do okay selling 99 cent coins. Not bad for free stuff. I would sell about 100 of them a week. Thats not bad for 3 hours worth of work. But, its not enough to live off of, so I sell other things as well. So, to recap, its the product (try to create one yourself if you have to), the price you can get it for (so you dont sell the same product for more then everybody else), and your ability to sell. Those three factors, fine tuned will help you get started. |
why was hindi declared as national language of india? | First of all Hindi is not our (India's) single national language. There exists no such thing in our constitution. Languages in our constitution is devided into two categories. Namely Official languages (Central administrative)& Scheduled list of languages for official use.\n\nOfficial languages are Hindi and English\n\nAnother 22 regional languages for official use.\n\nOnly around 40% of Indians speak Hindi as mother tounge but nearly 70% can understand Hindi. And that's hardly a criteria for "Naional Language". |
What percentage of the U.S. male population is gay? | Main problem in gathering statistics on gays is that many people who are homosexual do not want to admit, even to an anonymous interviewer. This is particularly true of people in heterosexual marriages. Probably Kinsey's 10% figure was skewed higher by some sampling problems. The low-end figures are likely wrong due to people not being honest when surveyed. An article in the gay press today said the British government estimated about 6% of its population was gay. |
Are you planning on making a New Years resolution? If so, what is it? Did you make one for this past year? | My resolution, like it has been every year since I was thirteen (7 or 8 years ago)is to find a girl who likes me the way I am, is interesting, pretty, and who I can deeply trust and care about. Someone who isn't a snob or some cutey-pie flirt. |
where is walter payton buried? | Walter Payton is not buried anywhere. He was cremated and his ashes were given to his family. |
Why does Nikola Khabibulin suck this year with the Chicago Blackhawks? | Geez... where to begin? Same reason a few good goalies have not done well in Chicago last few years. No defense, no heart on team, bad ownership... too many negatives. I have been going to games since I was 5 and I am 34 now. It certainly is not a franchise the way it used to be. Its a young team too. |
how season ocurr?/what factors affecting them? | The above is an incorrect answer. Seasons do not occur because of the distance of the earth to the sun. In fact, during winter, the earth is physically closer to the sun and during the summer, it is furthest.\n\nTilt is key. Its important that not only is there a tilt on the earth, but the direction of that tilt is not altered during the rotation of the earth around the sun.\n\nThe Northern hemisphere is always tilting away during the winter, and towards the sun during the summer. The tilt of the earth is 23 degrees. So lets say you're at 45 degrees lattitude. During the summer, the sun will rise to 45+23 (68) degrees because the tilt is towards it, and in winter, the sun only goes to 45-23 (22) degrees. There is a big difference between the sun going up 22 degrees and the sun going to 68 degrees.\n\nWhen the sun goes to 68 degrees, it is more overhead, and the earth therefore receives more of its rays. During winter, light rays are striking obliquely, and hence do not warm the earth as much.\n\nThis is why there are less variations of seasons around the equator, where the sun is almost always directly overhead all the time.\n\nAnd this is why seasons are reversed on the southern hemisphere. When the northern hemisphere tilts towards the sun, the south is tilting away. |
Can the cd-rw drive in my laptop play dvd's? | DVD is a different format with respect to CD RW. If your hardware supports only CDs for reading and burning, then there's no possibility of it reading the DVD. As you mentioned that you have a laptop, I guess it should be a DVD combo, i.e. DVD read only and CD Read/Write support, because that is the standard in laptops. I rarely have known a laptop model which has a CDRW drive, excepting if it is older than 2 years. You can check the DVD logo on the side of your drive. \n\nIn case it is a cdrw and you need to play a dvd, you need a computer with dvd drive on your network neibourhood. Just share the DVD drive on that computer, and you can access the DVD drive as your own drive. Best of luck on the experiment. |

GOPHERS ARE MESSING UP MY GRASS ! HOW DO I GET RID OF THEM MOTHERS? | Sounds like moles, go to the hardware store and get more traps, It is like a gian pouse trap you put it in their hole it catches and kills them. |
Why is snow depicted in a crib, when there is no sow fall in bethlehem? | Because Christ was not born on "Christmas" December 25. You are correct in the statement about snowfall in Bethleham. Winter in Bethlehem is a cold and rainy season, and a time when shepherds would not spend the nights outside with their flock. (Sheep have wool to keep them warm) Christ was likely born closer to springtime, as the shepherds WERE out with their flock overnight. The date for Christmas was actually stolen from Pagan Sun-worshipers and instituted as the birth of Jesus by emperor Constatine to try to unite his kingdom. Research it a little and you will find that even some of the clergy acknowledge this fact. Yet they still perpetuate the lie. \n\nSanta? Stolen from festivals in Holland.\nBesides Jesus never told his deciples to celebrate his birth. Aren't Christians supposed to be Christlike? In the Bible, the only meention of a birthday celebration during Jesus' life was of a Roman ruler that ended with John the Baptizer having his head cut off and served on a platter. You think Jesus likes Birthdays? |
If God asked you if He should let you into Heaven, what would be your response...and why? | No, I've sinned so according to the Bible I deserve to go to hell. BUT, I've accepted Jesus into my heart so that I CAN be let into heaven!! |
Specific Places Where U cOULD take A lie Detector Test Around Van Nuys? | Look for ads in the local phone book that advertise "accurate polygraph." |
If John McCain were to run for president, don't you think he'd do better to run as an Independant? | Somebody good like McCain should run as an Independent! The partisan politics of the Democrats and Republicans seems to cause a lot of nothing getting done for the sake of toeing the party line. I feel we need someone who can breach the impasse(s) that these parties seem to have caused over the years by uniting individuals from the "ruling" parties to take an active part in government. The current system needs some kind of "spanking" and only an independent can do it; I feel McCain is the man. |

What did we use before toilet paper? | Sears (back then Sears and Roebuck's) published a large catelog in the late 1800's and it's most popular use was for TP. Prior to that a de-kernaled corn-cob - soaked to soften was used (length wise) and prior to that leaves, grass, etc. - prior to that - well watch a dog (nothing) |
is there a word which can describe the excitement of being drunk? | Slammed\nPerved\ntipsy\nbombed |
what is it in a serious relationship that woman want from men? | WOMEN WANT A MAN WHO WILL NEVER CHEAT ON THEM . ALWAYS BE COMMITTED TO THEM. NEVER LIE TO THEM. TO CHERISH THEM AND LOVE THEM FOREVER. THEY WANT A MAN WHO WOULD DIE FOR THEM. SOMEONE WHO WILL BE BY THEIR SIDE NO MATTER WHAT. IT'S NOT ABOUT WHAT YOU CAN BUY HER OR WHAT SHE CAN BUY YOU. IF YOU CAN PROVIDE A GOOD HOME AND A GOOD LIFE THAT'S GREAT. JUST DON'T BASE YOUR RELATIONSHIP ON MONEY OR MATERIAL THINGS. THEY WANT A LIFE PARTNER-SOMEONE TO SPEND THE REST OF THEIR LIVES WITH. AT LEAST THAT IS WHAT I WANT FOR ME. I AM NOT THE MATERIALISTIC TYPE. THEY ALSO NEED SOMEONE WHO THEY ARE ATTRACTED TO-WHETHER IT BE PHYSICALLY OR EMOTIONALLY AND SOMEONE WHO MAKES LOVE TO THEM-NOT JUST FUCKS THEM. SOMEONE WHO WILL LOVE THEM FOR WHO THEY ARE, NOT CRITISIZE THEIR LOOKS OR ANYTHING ELSE. JUST LOVE THEM THE WAY THEY ARE. |

how can i write agood resume? | 1. You can write a 3-5 sentence introduction summarizing your profile (experience, area of expertise, soft-skills, etc.). Keep it concise.\n2. List out the facts of your work/projects/experience followed by a brief descriptive sentence if relevant.\n3. List any education, training, and other skills you have (i.e. languages, expertise in a hobby, volunteer work, etc.)\n4. Check your grammar and spelling. \n\nAnd last, have a friend whom you trust as professional and critical to review your resume. |
MY SISTER HATES ME AND I MIGHT MOVE UP TO HER GRADE, SHOULD I BE WORRIED? | Your sister doesn't hate you, you probably just irritate the crap out of her, which is entirely natural and common. If you move up to her grade, give her a lot of space and pretend like she's not there, don't worry about it and enjoy everything you can, focus on the good. If she pokes at you and causes problems, tell someone, don't do it back, and go back to ignoring her and going on with life. She'll probably get to a point where she sees being mean doesn't work, and years in the future you'll probably get along just fine. |
is a touchback a good thing? | No a safety is 2 points. A touchback is when the ball is put on your 20 yardline. To answer the question its better to pin the other time inside the 20 then on it. However a touchback is better then theball on the 30 if your the defence. |
is any of the Maroon 5 band members gay? | First of all, I don't see why this matters. This is the second popular culture question I've answered in the last ten minutes asking if some celebrity is gay. I think Yahoo! Answers could change its name to "The Gay List" and no one notice a difference.\n\nAll joking aside, according to NNDB, Maroon 5's frontman Adam Levine is straight. I can't speak for the other members, as they are not listed on the site; but a good guess would be no. Unless they are "out of the closet" speculating on which celebrities are gay is useless. |
What's the song playing in this VS commercial? | The sing is "Its Time' by Dublin. Its an alternate rock group. |

uses of pythagoras in daily life? | Typically the 3-4-5 triangle method is used during contruction of some sort where you need to ensure a right angle. You often know the length of one side of something and want to know where to place the other side so that it is at right angles. I used this to frame our basement walls so they would be "square" for drywalling and laying the floor. |
what are the two moons of mars called? | Mars has two small moons: Phobos and Deimos. Phobos (fear) and Deimos (panic) were named after the horses that pulled the chariot of the Greek war god Ares, the counterpart to the Roman war god Mars. Both Phobos and Deimos were discovered in 1877 by American astronomer Asaph Hall. The moons appear to have surface materials similar to many asteroids in the outer asteroid belt, which leads most scientists to believe that Phobos and Deimos are captured asteroids.\n\nRefer to the source site for more info |

Could inteligent life have evolved from a different animal group, such as reptiles, birds or even insects? | The fact that female mammals produce milk for their young means that at birth a mammal can have a relatively large brain, although they are relatively helpless. Other animals have to be able to at least get around.\n\nBrains don't grow as much as other parts of the body, which is why babies seem to have large heads.\n\nThe obvious counter-example is birds, where the young are stuck in the nest and depend on their parents for food. However, flight puts a limit on how heavy a bird can be, and so how heavy its brain can be. But flightless birds are a possible candidate.\n\nAmphibians and reptiles are cold-blooded, which seems as though it would rule out our sort of intelligence. On the other hand, perhaps an intelligent crocodile would think of slowing down when the temperature drops much as we think of sleep. Remember that a large brain would mean a large egg (and you have to fit the rest of the body inside the egg as well). |
Who was the founder of Kaaba? | I think it's Ibrahim. |

How do you rent an apartment in San Francisco when you have poor credit...? | Take a look at the Presidio and/or Tresure Island. I think that as long as you can show sufficient income, you can get a place there. |
What's the basis for Daylight Savings Time? | Benjamin Franklin was among the first Americans to discuss the idea of Daylight Saving Time. In fact, he proposed the idea while serving as U.S. minister to France as a way of conserving the cost of lighting for shops. The purpose has been to essentially utilize more of the daylight hours in spring and summer for daytime activities. Simply put, the Sun is up longer in the sky (rises earlier and sets later) in summer. Clocks and common mechanical timepieces keep what's called civil time, which roughly corresponds to the passage of a fictitious "average" Sun through our sky. This is necessary since the Sun does not rise and set on a regular basis, but changes by as much as 15 minutes throughout the course of the year.\n\nDaylight Saving Time was generally adopted by countries around World War I, but President Wilson repealed the United States' mandatory daylight savings law on March 31, 1918. During World War II, Daylight Savings Time was reestablished by law on a year-round basis, and later seen as a fuel saving measure during the Arab Oil Embargo crisis of 1973-74. In late 1974, standard time was brought back. During World War II, the U.S. and some other countries implemented "double" daylight savings time consisting of a two hour shift. |
How to improve on premature ejaculation? | A technique known as the "PC Squeeze" can help control premature ejaculation. This involves flexing the PC muscle repeatedly. You can find your PC muscle by stopping the flow of urine. The muscle that is used to stop the flow of urine (located between the scrotum and butthole) is also the muscle that controls ejaculation. Doing a PC workout each day can help strengthen the muscle. It recommended that you start easy: 3 sets of 15 squeezes followed by one long squeeze a the end. After a few weeks of this, the sets and reps can be increased to the point of fatigue. |
Is The Office the greatest thing since sliced bread? | I seriously think The Office has to be one of the best shows on television right now.\n\nSteve Carell, after his breakout performance in "The 40 Year Old Virgin", has busted onto the scene, and he is simply hilarious to watch week after week.\n\nI can't get enough of The Office, and seriously hope it will be around for seasons to come. |
why did they ban baseball from olympicss? | Because the MLB didn't want to suspend its season to let the professional players go to the olympics, in a manner similar to what the NHL does for the winter olympics.\n\nThis plus other problems like a poorly designed qualifying scheme meant that piss-poor teams from Europe and Africa went to Athens, but several very good teams from N & S America were left out led to almost no ticket sales. It was all about the Money. |
What is the difference between the fancy forks? | As far as "fine dining" goes, there are multiple ways of setting a table, thus there are many different sets of sivlerware. The American Standard at a nice restaurant/banquet is to have two forks on the left (One slightly smaller than the other) and the two spoons and the knife on the right of the plate. The smaller of the two forks is used for the salad, and is always the fork on the farthest side (using the american standard.)\n\nYes, the forks differ other than size. One of the prongs on the salad fork usually resembles a tooth pick so you can grab the food that always slips away... like tomatoes. |

Someone please answer as I'm now very curious what 'shrinky dinks' are. \nWhat are they? \nWhy do they scare girls? \nWhy do boys put them around their bed? \nCan you eat them? \nDo they have a purpose? |
Can someone narrate Hindu mythology Ramayana in brief.....where can I find it on website? | LOL. The guy with the Morgan Freeman answer deserves best answer no matter what other answers show up.

Who is the best baseball player of all-time? | Mr George Herman Ruth\n\nGreat Home Run Hitter\n\nGreat Average Hitter\n\nGreat RBI Hitter\n\nStole over 150 bases\n\nProbably could have been elected to HOF as a pitcher due to his being one of the greatest pitchers in his era...held record for soreless streak in World Series for over 50 years |
how do i recover fantasy leagues that i can no longer view from the fantasy sports home page? | The short answer is you can't.\n\nBut you might be able to from here (if you are talking about a Yahoo! league)\n\nhttp://profiles.sports.yahoo.com/ |
Why do women cheat on their husbands? | Its a symptom of a deeper problem, soemthing is missing or unresolved in her current life or in her past and she finds it to be easier to form a splintered/fragmented relationship. There she can find "temporary" comfort because none of her daily troubles are part of the new relationship, @ least not @ 1st |

Anyone here listen to Jason Mraz? | Big Mraz fan... there's also other cds that can be bought if you check out his online store, which is in the source(s) list, but they took off "Jason Mraz Live", a CD I bought a couple months back, one of his early recordings. \n\nI love that album - doesn't feel commercial, its a live performance without the screaming fans that you'll find in his "Tonight Not Again" album (not that I particularly minded that - great songs on it), and I absolutely love the "Rand MacNally" track which, my guess is, the precursor to his hit "The Remedy".\n\nYou can also find Mraz singing "Good Old Fashioned Lover Boy" on the new Queen tribute album. "Killer Queen" I believe its called.\n\nLooking forward to his next album! |
Which country was not chosen to participate in the 2006 FIFA World Cup in Germany? | Turkey\nbut she was loose during the qualifiquation phase and not 'not chosen' |
why did they say men are from mars and women are from venus? | Other than the fact that venus is a goddess and mars is a god, I think the main reason was a marketing decision. The book which coined the expression was originally titled:\n\n"The Women are from Venus, the Men are from Uranus"\n\nBut then again, they thought it might be subject to some juvenile pranks. So they switched to Mars. Which is closer to earth, but not as close to the point as Uranus. |
how much money have you spent or think you will on christmas presents? | I have spent about $300.00 this year. Fortunately I do not have a lot of people to buy for. |
What is the quantum time-travel theory? | Causality prevents information from traveling "backward" in time, and is the most sacred tenant in physics. Relativistic time-dialiation (above) is certainly interesting, but there is no time-travel theory (quantum or otherwise) that won't be met with anything but snide remarks by a real physicist. |
how are the mets gonna do in 2006? | although it's no guarantee, it looks like the mets have a great shot at winning the nl east in 2006.\n\nthe 2005 standings:\n\natlanta: 90-72\nphilly: 88-74\nmets: 83-79\nflorida: 83-79\nwash: 81-81\n\nnow, washington performed well above what was expected of them, as they gave up 30 more runs than they scored. florida has traded all of their talent for prospects. therefore, those 2 teams are likely not going to win the division.\n\natlanta lost their leadoff batter and sparkplug rafael furcal and replaced him with edgar renteria, who was great two years ago but does not provide the same offensive or defensive weapons that furcal does. atlanta also got a monster year out of andruw jones, who likely will not repeat that performance. also, the braves lost their closer, kyle farnsworth, to the yankees and will likely go with chris reitsma, who was good but not great last year in limited duty. however, the young players on the braves roster such as jeff francoeur, adam laroche, and ryan langerhans should develop further. also, a full season of former mvp chipper jones would be helpful. that leaves the braves with a good chance to win 90 games again. \n\nthe phillies traded jim thome to the white sox for aaron rowand, which improves their team even though i feel they should have gotten more for thome. with a shot at first base for a full season, ryan howard should put up some incredible numbers. chase utley, their 2nd baseman, should also leap to stardom this year. however, the phillies other big star, bobby abreu, wants to be traded, and that most likely means that the phils will not get full value for him. lastly, they lost their elite closer, billy wagner, to the mets. tom gordon, though he's old, should be a serviceable replacement, but will not be as lights-out as wagner. unless brett myers becomes consistent and shows he can be an ace, the phillies pitching staff is comprised basically of a #2 starter, 3 #3 starters and a #4. many teams would be happy with that pitching staff, but it doesn't win the division for you.\n\nthat leaves the mets. the mets record last year was worse than it should have been, as they scored many more runs than they gave up. trading for carlos delgado to replace the worst 1b positional output in the majors will be a big boost. signing wagner to close instead of the shaky braden looper will help a lot as well, as looper blew 8 of 36 save chances. add in the continued development of david wright, who exploded at the end of last season, and jose reyes, as well as a bounceback year for center fielder carlos beltran, and the mets look very good up and down. paul lo duca should provide similar numbers to last year's fading mike piazza, but should also stay healthy, as the mets backup, ramon castro, is solid and should play every fourth game or so. the mike cameron-xavier nady trade made a lot of people say "huh?", but it's actually good for the mets, as victor diaz has proven himself worthy of a shot to play in right field every day. if jae seo gets a chance to start for the full season and performs like he did at the end of last season, he will be a solid #2 pitcher. problems could include the aging of tom glavine and steve trachsel, the inconsistency of kris benson, and the lack of bullpen depth. i'm not convinced that uber-GM omar minaya won't get his team more help in the bullpen, with rumors abound that the mets wish to sign danys baez, the devil rays all-star closer, to set up for wagner.\n\nall in all, this mets team could win 100 games and take the nl east easily. |
Song lyrics or composer to "Elvis is alive and Playing Santa at Sears"...? | this may not be the song you were thinking of, but there is a song called "there's a santa who looks a lot like elvis," which is sung to the tune of "it's beginning to look a lot like christmas" and speaks of a santa at k-mart with blue suede shoes, and it is on the album "more twisted christmas" by bob rivers. hope i helped! |

Is there a digital photo face recognition service similar to RIYA.com? | Yep looks like myheritage.com is doing a face regongition search too. |
What do the eagles need to improve on in the offseason? | The Eagles need to find a consistent WR in the draft. Perhaps Sinorice Moss, the younger brother of Santana Moss would help. Their defense also needs some help. I don't know what happened to them, but next year they shouldn't be all that bad. As for McNabb, I'm sick of all this pressure being thrown on him by both Owens and the media. As long as he stays healthy, the Eagles could be a threat--provided Andy Reid keeps the offense balanced. As for Owens, good luck finding a new team. |
