About 3 months ago a friend of mine that is about a 10 year veteran of the military (4+ years in the USMC during Desert Storm and since 9/11 re-entered a Special Forces unit) got stopped by an Albuquerque Police officer for speeding and weaving.
My friend and a witness say the cop came into a Bennigans and saw him having a beer and then waited outside for him for about 45 minutes, then when he left, the cop followed him for 6 miles finally pulling him over and saying he had seen him having much more than one beer. My friend passed the SFTs and was polite and courteous. The cop still wrote him tickets. I've seen the weaving cite-it says "crossed line 2x" - (no more details). Apparently the cop has ensured my friend he will zealously appear in court to prosecute.
Since the I-25/Rio Grande drug corridor runs through Albuquerque and the city is flooded with drugs, has a high per capita violent crime rate, is a frequent feature on COPS, etc., is it just me or is this a bit petty?

If my parents had never met, I would not have been born, right?

Also the same for my grandparents on both sides; great grandparents and so on. So it seems that I was extremely "lucky" probability wise to ever have been born, since if any one of my ancestors never met their future "spouse" I (as I am now) wouldn't exist

..so the odds seem one in, I don't know, billions that I (defining "I" as the result of all those specific pairings) being born, and so I beat the odds...

BUT--this is true of course for everyone--and not just everyone who lives now, but who EVER lived, so the odds that each of us to have ever been born, multipled all together seem so incredibly vanishingly small, that it seems that some other explanation is necessary--?

Maybe even the opposite--in that if it is too unlikely to believe that something one out of a trillion to the trillionth power occurred, maybe instead it was 100%, or "had to be" the case...

Thoughts?

My family is considering relocating to the Twin Cities. I'm looking for a suburb that is safe, with good schools, family-oriented. I want to be less than 40 minutes from downtown. I'd also prefer newer single family homes. ( less than 10 years old if not newer) I'd also like to to be affordable (under $350k housing) Any suggestions? I want to stay away from Plymouth.

The fusion in sun causes it to glow and we see it. If we consider just one point in time can we explain the process as follows...

1. all the photons form a thick sphere around the sun and start to expand just like a baloon which is being inflated.

2. As a baloon gets bigger, the material of the baloon gets thinner and thinner, similarly the density (or intensity) of the photons in that imaginary sphere also gets thinner (or less intense)

3. is the process something similar to what i have mentioned above??

Light being both a particle and wave is killing me......i hope some expert might help me out.
