I am curious. I have heard that Jehovah's Witnesses do not celebrate birthdays. I am interested in knowing why. Please site sources. Also, is the reason for not celebrating Christmas the same? (being that some people celebrate it as Christs birthday)..

This is a serious question, so please, those who like to be jerks about things, don't bother answering. Thanks.

I am about to turn 17 so that will give me a year to prepare for when I enlist. How should I prepare?

When you logically prove something and someone doesn't believe you, they will often say "there is a higher logic" implying that the way our logic works is not true.

Godel's incompleteness theorem (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G%C3%B6del's_incompleteness_theorem) tells us that there are true but unprovable statements and that basically anything proven with logic is uncertain correct?

However, his theorem was created with logic! Is his theorem even certain? How can we escape this loop and show that any "higher logic" has just as much uncertainty as our own? It seems impossible to me.

I am in the HS freshmen swimming team. I am the only one that isnt circumcised. My best friend said that i can train the foreskin to stay back by wearing something like a o-ring behind the head to keep it permemenantly retracted. I want to know if any one has done this, and if so what they used and if they can keep it retracted now, or if they used something else to keep it permenantly retracted and how long it took to train it to stay back. Or if they went to get circumcised intstead an how much it hurt to have it done how long it took to heal and how much it cost. If you are recently circumcised are u happy u did it or do u regret it. PLEASE no negative insulting comments.

not why not? Equal is supposed to be fair you would think so Why not start a White College Fund as there are millions of poor Whites being discriminated against and ignored. This is an Epidemic and needs to be addressed. We all need help financially for school and this segregating of Funds should be banned!!!!!!!!!!

This makes me sick.

Whether or not you agree with the source I posted, you have to agree that the fact the United States, the world's undisputed military leader, is using MERCENARIES in Iraq is sickening. Now add this to the fact that these MERCENARIES make more in a month than what the average U.S. SOLDIER makes in a year, and this just makes it even worse. Why do you never hear of these MERCENARIES in the news? Because if all the parents and spouses and military families knew that their servicemen and servicewomen were fighting alongside much better paid MERCENARIES from around the world with allegiance to their CEO and only their CEO, and not the U.S. Constitution, this war would be done for.

A space launch vehicle has a total mass of 3,400,000 kg at lift off. The first stage contains 2,000,000 kg of propellent (fuel and oxygen) which is consumed at a rate of 14,000 kg/s.

a) What is the minimum thrust of the engines at lift off?

b) If this thrust is sustained, find the time over which the first stage operates and acceleration of the vehicle at that time. (Don't include air friction and that entire flight is vertical)

c) Find the speed of the exhaust gases.

Help plz would be much appreciated!

A 67.6 kg man steps off a platform 3.68 m above the ground. He keeps his legs straight as he falls, but at the moment his feet touch the ground his knees begin to bend, and, treated as a particle, he moves an additional 0.39 m before coming to rest. Treating our rigid legged friend as a particle, what is the average force his feet exert on the ground while he slows down?

Note: Assume the acceleration while he is slowing down is constant.

Give your answer in Newtons to the nearest whole number.

Hint: Draw a free body diagram to aid in seeing the forces.

The republicans seem not to be pleased with their candidates. That is not the debate. The question is: If Al Gore entered the race, do you think he would overtake Mrs. Clinton and Barack Obama in the ratings, and why? Who else would be better as a candidate based upon the fact that Mr. Gore has 8 years of experience in a White House that was prosperous and he really did receive the popular vote against Mr. Bush.

Well, I'm 17 and I've never actually asked anyone out, people have always just come to me instead. I'm pretty easily convinced but of course I can't say the same for everyone else.
So, here's the story: I met this new guy at my school, and he's a little bit younger than me but I think he does like me at least as a friend. We talk sometimes friendly-like and he smiles at me a lot.
The day I met him though, I had to make a decision to drop out of school and get my GED. That day I had been taking the pre-test, and the guy saw me and asked about it, so I told him. So today I went to register for the series of tests, and then there he is at the office registering for the very same thing. I thought, "Huh, that's weird!" but I'm kind of happy about it because then I'll get to see him again.
So during the tests I assume we will have at least a couple breaks in between during which we can talk quietly or whatever. Should I ask him out then? And if so, how? I wanna subtle because I'm shy...

Matter at a sub atomic level is just energy, its not actually "solid", it is just energy held in place through magnetic or gravitational force. Its like when you put two like poles of a magnet together, you cant push them together so it feels like there is something there.
Therefore a different universe identical to this on a different "frequency" could pass through this universe as if it didnt exist, like light passing through glass so there could be another you just mm away. Therefore there could be an infinite number of these "parallel universes" starting at different times so we could be visited by our descendents.
