I have to compare regenerative and electromagnetic braking systems, but i really can't think of anything. The only thing i have so far is that they both use induction.

I was also thinking that the electromagnetic braking would be more efficient, because there are no parts which can wear out and need replacing, and if permanent magnets are used they need no power input, whereas the regenerative braking systems, regardless of how well it charges when braking still looses energy, and has parts which can wear out, like brushes, but i'm not sure if this is true, it's just an idea i had.

So is that idea right, and does anyone have any other suggestions?

I have a Mini Fox Terrier (Jack Russel x Chihuaua) and she eats cooked chicken bones. A lot of people have told me that its bad for her and that the bone could splinter inside her. Others have told me that because she is breed for hunting, she can eat cooked bones and one vet on the radio said that it was harmless. I don't know what to believe!

I always hear these types of questions asked by people that dont believe in God. If you don't believe in God and have no intention on getting to know Him, then why would you ask such a question?

I think and also believe that there is more than likely at least one of these types of people living in one house on one block of most neighborhoods! I had one in my old neighborhood...the fellow was a terrific hoarder..the neighbors watched out for one another..and they would always call the fire department on this man(who was a professor at a local university) Mr,Collector would collect newspapers stacked high up to the ceilings! among other things..but, the papers were pretty dangerous!

then there was another neighborhood, of an ex-boyfriends', there was a "anything type" of hoarder...collecting planting pots,and string,and sticks and lots of other things, that I really didn't know about!


So, what about you all, anybody in your neighborhood with these tendencies and what do you do, or have you done regarding these persons?
if anything? andy why or why not?

Sorry, silly question. The replacement rate to keep the population constant is more than 2 kids per family, everywhere in the world. China has had a 1-child policy for many years. Why isn't their population declining?
