I kept seeing "neo liberal" as a derogatory term, and being a liberal, I looked it up. After reading on Wikipedia, I guess I am a neo liberal as well, but I am wondering, if there is an alternate meaning for conservatives, because it sounds like a conservative value? And I'm looking for thoughtful, polite and referenced answers please!

"Neoliberalism is a label for economic liberalism that describes government policies aiming to promote free competition among business firms within market, notably liberalization and monetarism.

Neoliberalism promotes a stable currency, a balanced budget, free market capitalism, and free trade. Characteristic aspects include expansion of the market to a 24-hour global trading cycle, contract maximalization, increase in the frequency of contracts, continuous assessment, and derivative markets."

help! #1 and #3?

#1. When heated, H2S(g) decomposes according to 2H2S(g) <=> 2H2(g) + S2(g) . A 3.40g of H2S(g) is introduced into an evacuated rigid 1.25L container. The sealed container is heated to 483K, and 3.72*10^-2 mol of S2(g) is present at equilibrium.
a) Write the expression for the equilibrium constant Kc for the decomposition rxn represented above.
b)Calc. the equilibrium concentration in mol L^-1 of H2(g) and H2S(g) at 483K.
c)Calc. Kc for the decomposition rxn at 483K.
d)Calc. partial pressure of S2(g) in the container at equilibrium at 483K.
e)For the rxn H2(g) + 1/2S2(g) <=> H2S(g) at 483K, calc. Kc.

#3. Answer the following about BeC2O4(s) and it's hydrate. a)Calc. the mass % of carbon in the hydrated form of the solid that has the formula BeC2O4 * 3H2O
b) When heated to 220'C, BeC2O4 * 3H2O(s) dehydrates completely. BeC2O4 * 3H2O -> BeC2O4(s) +3H2O(g)
If 3.21 of BeC2O4 * 3H2O is heated to 220'C, calc..
i) mass of BeC2O4(s) formed
ii) volume of H2O(g) released at 220'C and 735 mm Hg.

if the killing were done with kitchen knives would we outlaw them as well?

of course not. it's not the weapon that causes the harm, it's the person behind the weapon.

Piscinamuerta? Muertapiscina? Piscinomuerto? Muertopiscino?

I know that proper nouns aren't normally translated from English to Spanish, but if they were, how would you say Deadpool's name in Spanish? I mean, pool is a feminine noun, but he's a guy. So would you change it to Piscinomuerto, or would you just call him Piscinamuerta?

The Vtech shooter was on antidepressants, so were the Columbine shooters. Does this tell u anything ?

This guy was on anti depressants. The Columbine kids were on anti depressants. When are you people going to realize what drug companies are doing to your kids? America is a drug nation. Politicans pander to drug companies cause drug companies are the ones who have the $$$.
Keep drugging your kids America and watch more of these incidents happen. Who cares if scientists arent completely sure how these drugs work on the body. At least it appeases the massess.

Why do Americans allow themselves to be peddled by these drug companies 24/7

I want to change careers - am I crazy?

I'm done with med school, a residency in ophthalmology, fellowship in retinal diseases.

But, I have this burning desire to become a bad-a@# lawyer like those girls on Law and Order. =) Over the years, I've decided that my personality is better suited for this kind of job. Only went to med school since it seemed like the right thing to do at the time.

Would it be completely crazy for me to abandon my medical career to go to law school? I'm 33.
