what is the traffice like in austin, texas? | Traffic is manageable if you attempt to refrain from the main thoroughfares: I-35 and MOPAC (LP 1)are hit hardest by rush hour. I live in between MOPAC and I-35, a little south of town. I'd definitely reccomend living a little ways south from downtown- unless you plan on spending the majority of your time there. |

Who beleive in "Magic"? if you do, why? | I've always believed in Magic, and thats not just because I'm a Magicican.\n\nEveryone sees magic differently because everyone thinks differently. Whats primary to an observer is actually secondary to the Magician. And whats primary to the Magician is actually secondary to the observer.\n\nI use to perform Magic for a living for Childrens Birthday parties,but got caught up in the financial side of it. It wasn't magic to me anymore, it was just a get rich quick scheme, and the magic was lost.\nI finally stopped myself, and quit doing it for money and now donate my magic shows to Childrens Hospitals.\n\nOnce the Magician stops believing, the audience stops believing as well. Now that I'm doing it for the right reasons, the Magic has been found. |

Whats your favorite sport? | Football is the best, it's very competitive, where any team can beat anyone, it's not like that in most other sports. It's a simple game, anyone can learn it and understand with a little time. In most game it's close, making it exciting and this keeps people glued to the game. It's also very fun to play, well, that's if you don't mind taking a hit or two.\n\nBaseball is fun to play, but anymore it's the same teams winning and loosing year after year. It's also a slow game. |

the angle in a point is 360degrees. why no other angle? | If your question is - why is the angle around a point 360 degrees, then the answer is that a point by itself has no specific starting or ending point and hence the whole 360 degrees is the angle around a point in space in 2D |
how does computer clock works even if computer is off?? | Most computers have a small battery. In many cases, the battery is soldered directly onto the motherboard, but the battery is usually in some sort of holder so it is easy to replace. Computers are not the only things that have a small battery like this -- camcorders and digital cameras often have them, too. Just about any gadget that keeps track of the time will have a battery.\n\nIn your computer (as well as other gadgets), the battery powers a chip called the Real Time Clock (RTC) chip. The RTC is essentially a quartz watch that runs all the time, whether or not the computer has power. The battery powers this clock. When the computer boots up, part of the process is to query the RTC to get the correct time and date. A little quartz clock like this might run for five to seven years off of a small battery. Then it is time to replace the battery. |
Should Evolution be taught in schools? | Yes, evolution should be taught in schools, but it should be presented as a scientific theory that is most widely accepted, not as a solid fact that cannot be questioned. I also think that creationism, which is also a theory that is commonly accepted, but is also something that cannot be scientifically proven at this point, should also be taught in schools.\n\nThe problem is that the scientific community is extremely defensive about losing respect for the theory of evolution, because it is still such a young theory, that they are not being respectful to the idea that part of science includes questioning theories.\n\nReligious scholars also tend to be too strict, not considering, perhaps, that evolution could be guided by God, or that evolutionary patterns may have been put into place at some starting point that was already evolved. This is similar to claiming that the chicken came before the egg, but the chicken continued to evolve after it existed.\n\nChildren should be required to consider several viewpoints, just as they are in other aspects of education. |
People that have a college degree, will they make more money than a high school drop out.? | THis is true, mainly because people without a highschool diploma are going to be hardpressed to get a good job at all. THere are many jobs out there that require a bachelor's degree even if they don't require that level of knowledge. It's part of how this society tries to get us to just play the game. If you play the game you can get a good job. THis involves getting into college and graduating. |
Why do our bodies feel better when the atmospheric pressure is high? | Atmospheric pressure is continually fluctuating, and researchers in the Ukraine have found that slight low-frequency atmospheric oscillations can influence human mental activity, causing significant changes in attention and short term memory functions. So next time you find it hard to concentrate at work, blame it on the pressure! |
How to connect to a remote computer in LAN and access all folders? | Well, I know 2 ways(You must have the owners autorizathion):\n1. Use radmin (Remote Administrator)- Both you and the "controlled" computer must have it installed\n2. Strt a NetMeeting conversation(XP has it installed in x:\Program Files\NetMeeting), then u must recieve an invitation from the pther computer.... |
how do you get the girl that u really like? | Well, it really depends on how well you know them for the specific approach... But something that will always help is good eye contact! Especially when you are laughing. I've started liking guys after a good laugh with eye contact. Oh, and flirt, but don't be too suggestive, because you might freak them out. Other than that it really depends upon the girl... good luck! |
Is there an inexpensive device that can be used with an existing flatbed scanner for 35mm negative scanning? | I have never used one but backlight boxes are available on the net to project light through the negative and give a proper picture to the scanner |
Reunion parties – why do we do that to ourselves? | It does seem to be a form of torture, doesn't it? I think there's a part of all of us that in some small way wants to connect with our past and our youth, regardless of what it was like for us then. If it was good (star athelete, class president), it's another moment basking in that spotlight of old. If the experience was bad, it's always tempting to return to those people who made your life terrible to see if they have fallen from grace as far as you imagined they might. Then of course there's you--how much have you changed, for better or worse, and how you imagine that will affect that same group of people you loved/hated all those years ago. It's a wonder more people don't end up in therapy before and/or after attending one. As for me, I've been to just one--and while I had a pretty good time, I really doubt I'll be tortuing myself again. |

Does anyone have any tips for surviving a Statistics Research class before checking into a mental institution? | Hi. I had to take BUSINESS Statistics. It was painful, but I learned how to survive. It is a really good idea to get a "study buddy" who, sorry to be rude, but is at least as smart as you or smarter. If its a retard, you'll end up spending your study time on things you already understand. Read the text and any notes the prof gives you before class so you at least know some of the terms. Then, as soon as possible after class, do review questions from the book so that the concepts really settle in. And, before the exam, get together a really good study group, sit in someone's dorm with some pizza and coffee and study, study, study...you'll feel more confident if you're prepared! Good luck. |
what do u do when a gurl auntie dont like u? | Be yourself. Try not to be rude about anything. Regaurdless if her Aunt don't like you, show some respect if you have to be around the fam.

But don't give her or her family any reasons not to like you. You know what I'm saying! Be real with her and you'll be alright. |

Write us and tell us how it goes! |

With LSU sound defeat of Miami, are they National title contenders next year? | They could be, provided they win all their games next year with the way the computers determine rankings. If Bush and Young stay, it should still be Texas and USC at the top. But if either of them was to leave for the draft, LSU could be a threat. But be aware: Penn St. and Notre Dame could also be contenders next year. |

If all rivers run into the seas, why are the seas not full? | What do u mena by "FULL"\n\nFull means when a limit has been achieved... there is nothing like that for abstract items like "SEA"\n\nBut for ur answer... rivers flow into the sea... sea 'dries' into clouds... clouds precipitate into streams.. streams merge into rivers... the process iterates ;) |
how do you cite a cd you listened to on a research paper? | It depends on which citation format you need for your paper.\n\nHere is an eample for the APA Style:\n\nShocked, M. (1992). Over the waterfall. On Arkansas \n Traveler [CD]. New York: PolyGram Music.\n\nHere are examples of the MLA style:\nCD:\nCounting Crows. August and Everything After. DGC, 1993.\n\nSpecific song:\nCounting Crows. "Mr. Jones." August and Everything After. DGC, 1993.\n\nThe examples above are taken from the Cornell University Library websites below. Please look at the website below, especially for the APA style, to see the proper indentation.\n\nIf you need something more complicated (say a classical music CD which might feature a composer, and/or specific perfomers), most libraries have print copies of the major style manuals which you could consult.\n\nMy rather dated copy of the MLA Handbook (2nd edition, 1984), says that the person cited first in these situations will "depend on the desired emphasis".\n\nHere is one example from that source:\nBeethoven, Ludwig van. Sumphony no 7 in A, op. 92. \n Cond. Herbert von Karajan. Vienna Philharmonic \n Orch. London, STS 15107, 1966. |
Can the Enron controversy get back to Bush or Cheney? | It probably has strong ties to Cheney and Bush as Bush is into Oil and Halliburton is the Contractor for many installations and repairs.\nHalliburton has many levels grouped under HKBR and includes design firms to 3rd party inspection companies, so I'm sure it would hit a deadend somewhere before Cheney and his assistant Bush. |

How do I pay back my student loan if I am not in the UK (UK Student Loan Company)? | will the company accept direct deposits over the internet? Will they accept from a neutral third party such as pay pal? Another possibility is a money order from the US Post Office sent directly to the company. |
Why is the word pound (as in weight) abbreviated as 'lbs'? | The abbreviation "lbs." certainly seems like a strange way to write "pounds," until you consider the origin of the word. Like many terms used in science, the word "pound" has a Latin background. It comes from "libra pondo," the Latin expression for a "pound of weight." The English word "pound" comes from "pondo," and the abbreviation "lb." comes from "libra." When you are referring to more than one pound, an "s" is added to the abbreviation to make it plural, so it becomes "lbs." |

What is the biggest health problem facing the USA today? | Stress, which leads to other health problems. |
If the Google people are supposed to be so smart, how come so many of their recent UIs are lame? | In my opinion, Google was never something more than a great search engine. In an early era where dial-up was more common than broadband, Google built a top-notch engine with a very light UI which made it an immediate favorite amongst a lot of users. What was nice about Google was that it never aspired to be something someone else was, it created its own identity as a very comprehensive search engine. However, offlate, I have started losing faith in Google, especially because their objectives and goals as a company seem very unclear. A chunk of their revenue still comes through ads, and their search engine is really the only intellectual property they have developed from the ground-up, otherwise everything else is either just an acquisition or a bad idea. Google earth was previously keynote, Google Talk has been built upon Jabber which is an open source technology for messaging and these were the "other" great ideas besides the search engine, but things like web accelerators and secure connection through VPN are just lame excuses to drive internet traffic through their servers.\n\nAnother great idea from Google was desktop search, but somehow they never capitalized on the idea, and today MSN has come out tops in this department.\n\nAt the end of the day, Google isnt running out of ideas, I think they are running out of focus, something that companies like Yahoo have and very well defined ones at that. |
do you like Inuyasha? Why or why not? | ya his the best its a great action cartoon |
Why is the PC clock slow? | There's a small round battery located on the motherboard. This battery keeps the time clock as well as your settings going.

If you have any other questions you can email me.\n\nstlouisfan |

I suffer from Erectile Dysfunction. Dr claimed it as BOTH physical, but more psychological. Any suggestions ? | Prostate problems can cause major erectile problems, and even problems with ejaculation. And if you are taking meds for bipolar disorder, those almost always cause problems with ejaculation, but not necessarily with erectile function. You are not in the best of situations, because viagra would probably work well without the bipolar meds. The best course of action is a patient, willing, and caring partner, even if the sex is marginal because of your situation, and understanding and caring partner can help make it very good. A good psychological state and situation can make up for the physical problems - it won't really do much of anything to fix the physical problems, but it can make intimacy more enjoyable. Get creative, and be satisfied with what you've got. A selfish or non-understanding partner would probably not only be extremely stressful and unfulfilling, but probably would tell you a whole lot about them. The most ironic thing is that sexual dysfunction is severly underrearched and not understood very well - particularly physical causes. Until the more recent decades it was almost always assumed to be purely psychological. |
Is Ashton Kutcher's show "punk'd" unfair to black people? Is he racist? Or just mean? | I don't think he's racist. i just watched Punkd yesterday. Where Avril and Mike Jones were Punkd and yes the fake police was called in for Mike Jones' one but every Punk has to be different. i believe you may have over-thought it a bit :/ |
Are the current computer viruses more efficient than the ancient ones; in other words are they evolving ? | The viruses are Not evolving. The programmers who write them are becoming more clever or perhaps have learned a few more tricks.\nThis includes viruses, trojan horses and sleeper programs, some of which modify their own code to make it harder to spot them, especially if they do not attempt to do anything immediately.\nSome the worst viruses are now being written by the DOD to send into enemy country banking systems. These are the ones you hope never get used. |

can u create a "CON" folder in winxp and how to reset or findout the password in winxp? | The basic problem is that CON is the built in name used for a standard I/O port representing "console". This is just like other ports, like LPT1, LPT2, COM1, COM2, etc. If you managed to created such a file/folder on your machine, all normal input and output that normally come from the keyboard and display on the screen would have to come from and go to the file/folder you created.\n\nDOS device names are reserved words, and cannot be\nused as folder or file names. When parsing a reference to a file or folder, Windows correctly checks for the case in which a single DOS device name is used in the path, and treats it as invalid.\n\nfollowing are reserved device names\n\nCON, PRN, AUX, CLOCK$, NUL, COM1, COM2, COM3, COM4,\nCOM5, COM6, COM7, COM8, COM9, LPT1, LPT2, LPT3, LPT4,LPT5, LPT6, LPT7, LPT8, and LPT9.\n\nu cannot create a folder or file of the above names.\n\nThis actually is a unix-like feature. DOS device drivers are accessible like normal files, i.e. the everything-is-a-file philosophy. CON is the equivalent of /dev/tty, NUL of /dev/null, COM# of /dev/ttyS#, LPT# of /dev/lp# and CLOCK$ corresponds to /dev/rtc (PRN is an alias to LPT1, AUX is COM1). Every character device can be opened this way, block devices (which are assumed to be FAT formatted...) are named A: to Z:, as you will know. Many pseudo character devices (drivers which had to be loaded as drivers but were no character devices, like EMM386, HIMEM.SYS, ..) had forbidden characters like '*' in their device names to be hidden from the user.\n\nThe only problem is: DOS 1, which introduced CON, NUL, PRN and AUX had no directories, i.e. no /dev/, so for compatibility with old DOS1-executables (which don't know that they live in a directory) the character devices have to exist in every directory. Don't know why this feature was not limited to FCB (CP/M like) file access, unix like file numbers were introduced together with directories in DOS 2 (actually the MS programmers had Xenix machines on their desks, I heard)..\n\nsecondly i would say that some extra smart people try to create the Folder "con" by using special characters in front of the folder name such as now take for example one of my friend told me that he had created the folder "con". he showed me the syntax. the correct syntax for creating a folder in DOS is...\n\nmkdir con \n\nbut since the folder "con" cannot be created this command doesnt execute.\nnow see the syntax what my friend showed me\n\nmkdir \.\\d:\con (warning : dont try on ur pc)\nand to delete the folder is\nrd \.\\d:\con\nu know wat will happen\nin windows xp u will c only a folder of name "con" but the actual name is \.\\con\nwe should not use special character in front of folder names.\n\nThere is one more technique to create "con" but it is not known to most of the people.\nThis is the alt+255 technique.\nIn this the user holds the "alt" key and then presses 255 from the numpad before or after the folder name.\nBut alt + 255 is the keyboard combination of underscore(_) or space which is a special character and hence can't be used for folder name.\nWhile displaying the name it wont show the special character, it will show only the name "con"\n\nNow regarding the file "con"\nyou may not have noticed but it is not only the folder "con" cannot be created but also u cannot create a file of name "con" (such as u can't create "con.txt",\n"con.doc","con.ppt" etc...)\nThe reason for this is as follows\n\nIn Dos there are two commands \nfor creating a file we use a command "copy con"\nthe syntax for creating a file in DOS is..\n\ncopy con <filename>\n\nusing the above command u can create a file in DOS.\nnow for copyng a file the command is "copy" in Dos\nthe synatx is ..\n\ncopy <filename1> <filename2> |
Did President Bush break the law by authorizing the NSA to investigate US citizens? | I wasn't until I read the New York Times article. It seams that there could have been a judge involved that did could have issued warrents. Also, they did suspend it when they thought they were crossing the line. I also did some more digging and found out that the NY times sat on the story for a year. If something illegal was happening the NY Times would have run the story earlier. So No I don't think that the President or the NSA did anything wrong at this point. |

how do i look up miami oklahoma court records for free? | Unfortunately the Ottawa County Court does not have its own web page (that I can find). Almost all court records are open for public inspection. Some things may not be available such as adoption or expunged (removed by a judge) records. You can always go to the Courthouse and look at them for free. They may charge you for a photocopy, but you should be able to read the files at their office without charge. \n\nThe City of Miami, OK does have a website with some court records, most notably the list of sex offenders in the area, available online. Their link is below. \n\nGood luck! |
how to block application download in internet thru registry settings? | This article describes how and where Internet Explorer security zones and privacy settings are stored and managed in the registry. You can use Group Policy or the Microsoft Internet Explorer Administration Kit (IEAK) to set security zones and privacy settings. If you are using Group Policy or IEAK on a Microsoft Windows 2000-based computer, you may have to install several hotfixes to set security zones and privacy settings.\n\n\nIf the Security Zones: Use only machine settings setting in Group Policy is enabled, or if the Security_HKLM_only DWORD value is present and has a value of 1 in the following registry key, only local computer settings are used and all users have the same security settings: \nHKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\nWith the Security_HKLM_only policy enabled, HKLM values will be used by Internet Explorer, but the HKCU values will still be displayed in the zone settings on the Security tab in Internet Explorer. This is by design and there are no plans to change this functionality.\n\nIf the Security Zones: Use only machine settings setting is not enabled in Group Policy, or if the Security_HKLM_only DWORD value does not exist or is set to 0, computer settings are used along with user settings. However, only user settings appear in the Internet Options. For example, when this DWORD value does not exist or is set to 0, HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE settings are read along with HKEY_CURRENT_USER settings, but only HKEY_CURRENT_USER settings appear in the Internet Options.\nNote With the Security_HKLM_only policy enabled, HKLM values will be used by Internet Explorer, but the HKCU values will still be displayed in the zone setting tab within the Internet Explorer Interface. This is by design, and there are no plans to change this functionality at this time. \nTemplatePolicies\nThe TemplatePolicies key determines the settings of the default security zone levels (Low, Medium Low, Medium, and High). You can change the security level settings from the default settings. However, you cannot add additional security levels. The keys contain values that determine the setting for the security zone. Each key contains a Description string value and a Display Name string value that determine the text that appears on the Security tab for each security level. \nZoneMap\nThe ZoneMap key contains the following keys: • Domains \n• ProtocolDefaults \n• Ranges \nThe Domains key contains domains and protocols that have been added to change their behavior from the default behavior. When a domain is added, a key is added to the Domains key. Subdomains appear as keys under the domain where they belong. Each key that lists a domain contains a DWORD with a value name of the affected protocol. The value of the DWORD is the same as the numeric value of the security zone where the domain is added.\n\nThe ProtocolDefaults key specifies the default security zone that is used for a particular protocol (ftp, http, https). To change the default setting, you can either add a protocol to a security zone by clicking Add Sites on the Security tab, or you can add a DWORD value under the Domains key. The name of the DWORD value must match the protocol name, and it must not contain any colons (:) or slashes (/). \n\nThe ProtocolDefaults key also contains DWORD values that specify the default security zones where a protocol is used. You cannot use the controls on the Security tab to change these values. This setting is used when a particular Web site does not fall in a security zone. \n\nThe Ranges key contains ranges of TCP/IP addresses. Each TCP/IP range that you specify appears in an arbitrarily named key. This key contains a string value (:Range) that contains the specified TCP/IP range. For each protocol, a DWORD value is added that contains the numeric value of the security zone for the specified IP range. \n\nWhen the Urlmon.dll file uses the MapUrlToZone public function to re |

Why when do you sneeze when you walk out into bright sunlight? | This reflex occurs in about 25% of people and seems to occur more often in Caucasians. It is called photic sneeze reflex, or Autosomal Dominant Compelling Helioophthalmic Outburst Syndrome. There is little research in this area, but the current thinking is that the eye's optic nerve and the nerves causing sneezing are closely related, so that when the eye is stimulated, sneezing occurs. |

I have been diagnosed with degenerative disease, could you tell me about the disease please? Thank you? | Degenerative disease is, in fact not a real disease. It is a process of wear and tear that occurs with ageing in virtually all individuals. It is also referred to as osteoarthritis, arthrosis and spinal arthritis. The joint surface may become eroded and the gristle or cartilage that lines the joint is no longer smooth but pitted. This results in pain and inflammation occurring with movement. In addition to this there is a process of thickening in the ligaments around the joints as well, a gradual deformity of the joint itself rather like the end of a stick that has been hit with a mallet. The result is a splaying out of the joint surface and this edge of bone (osteophytes) causes a characteristic appearance with apparent swelling and enlargement of the joint itself. In addition to these changes, the joint may become inflamed with redness heat and swelling with accompanying pain. Typically the inflammation comes on overnight once the joint is rested and gradually wears off as the joint gets moving. |
Why do people come up with such crazy names for themselves in your opnion? | I think its just that people think plain names are boring, and they would not be noticed. So they go for what can be considered "creative names". \n\nBut then, you see, not everyone can be creative enough, or , putting it mildly, not every one can be good enough at creativity to please everyone. That means there would be a lot of names that a lot of other people won't like. \n\nBut then, I am sure, for every name, there would be many other who think its cool. Its just like an evening dress that you would wear. Some like it, some don't. Some think its crazy, others consider it cool. \n\nWhat do you think about mine ;-) |

In order to receive payment for goods shipped to a customer in another country, the seller will need? | Well I know that having a paypal account is useful for overseas transactions.. Remember that the money has to be converted, which paypal does automatically, but take that into account with your price of course. As for anything else I am uncertain, duty fees and such are usually the buyers responsibility as far as I know. Check with whomever you are sending package, they will give you the correct paper work to fill out.. and there is paperwork. Hope this helps a little. good luck |

Why do Republicans seem overwhelmingly in support of the patriot act? | I am not a Republican, but I play one on TV...:-) Seriously, I believe that they feel trading some freedom for more security is a wise policy. I understand the need to feel safe, and I am generally in favor of measures that increase our security. However, that does not extend to the Patriot Act, which I see as a slippery slope away from what America is supposed to be. |

Apparently there was no monitoring system to see what happened and where the money went. This is a good question and I will definately watch it to see if anyone knows anything more about it. |
