I think if there's anything useful to memorize, it is the periodic table. I'd like to be able to talk about elements which are Alkalis · Alkaline earths · Lanthanides · Actinides · Transition metals · Poor metals · Metalloids · Nonmetals · Halogens · Noble gases. Any clues how to go to about it? I tried making Mnemonics but then I can't come up with words that make sense make pertain to the periodic table.
I'd love to be a nerd about Chemistry and not have to look up the table to solve problems.

We're heading to a world culture.It's isn't bad as such but English language came from so far to achieve a degree of perfection and clarity.Now today American Hip-Pop slang is transforming young British at a point that it's getting difficult for their own parent to understand them.

Slowly but surely, a new border is being created but this doesn't seam to interest minister Blaire and others.They rather send young English to die in Iraq instead of helping British English culture.Paradoxically if true Oxford English must survive one day in it essence, it will be in countries like Russia, Sweden,Belgium.

Those nation

Why enforcing Mexican-American border if English language is doomed anyway?

Think about it. Why would god want a part of himself to experience pain & death so mankind could go to heaven?
Except that being god he already knew since before creation who would and who wouldn't go to heaven.

I have a Belgium Malinois who is an escape artist. I have had her for 6 years. She just now started to get out. So i put concrete blocks around the holes. Well she just moved them out of the way. Then i dug a whole and put chicken wire down. Well she chewed threw that and got out. Then i did what i never wanted to do. I chained her up. And still she is getting out of that. She keeps on going to another yard where their are like 3 other dogs. I have to check on her every 10 min just to make sure she is still their.

I just read how they found an almost fully preserved Wolly Mammoth in Siberia, and thought it would be awsome if they could somehow reintroduce them to the wild someday.

Is there something I can connect to my LCD flip-down to stop the lines and grain from looking bad. When I stop the car, the LCD looks good but when I start up again, it gets lines and grain.

My house is up for sale, this agent calls me to show my unit to a buyer & said would show up btwn 11:15 am & 12:15, calls before 11 and says she is already on my street, (I wasn't ready) told her she said btwn these times, then she says I told you btwn 10:15 & 11:15 I said not true! she said I'm showing another unit & I'll be there after, I told her sorry, please show up at 11:15, I go upstairs to the sun deck & see her knocking on my door, she had no key from lock box, & left mad. She ruined everything and buyer liked the place a lot, but told my agent doesn't want to come back because I was mean! (I'm mad, this arrogant agent turned it around, and my agent is not on my side) agent should've gotten the keys from lock box to open unit, as I wasn't going to be there, aren't all agents supposed to get the key before entering a house? I want to call her boss for acting like this! (I found out from my agent her client really liked another unit in building, but my price & unit are btr
