For the record, I not hold this view so please withhold your venomos rage.
Here is my question: Darwinism maintains that all life is constantly evolving forward becoming more and more complex as the generations pass. Our purpose and the explanation for our behavior and actions have to do with the fact that we are hard-wired to keep our own species alive and evolving. How does the darwinist explain an offshoot that does by definition does not reproduce and help in the survival and progression of its own species? Should a darwinist encourage this lifestyle? What are they to think of homosexuals in a world of survival of the fittest?

What does this mean exactly?
What is vesting?
thank you

You are 20% vested after 2 years, 20% vested each additional year. So, you will be fully vested after 6 years.

I am 5'7", weigh 200 lbs., female, 26 yo. I have been watching my diet and exercising for about two months now and have lost about 8 lbs. The thing is now that I have stepped up my exercise program, I am starting to feel a bit sluggish and my energy is down from when I started. I think it may be due to the fact that I am maybe not getting enough calories. I don't count them but I eat a lot of healthy foods, fruits, veggies, whole grains that sometimes aren't very high in calories.

If I do 45-60 minutes of cardio and strength training 5 days a week, how many calories should I consume in a day to give me enough energy and still lose weight? Also, how should I space the calories, ie more calories earlier in day or many small meals?

I know I should just listen to my body and I don't want to start counting calories obsessively. I just want to have a starting point. Thanks!

a lot more Americans use the Canadian system than the number of Canadians who use the American system?
The number of Americans who go to Canada to buy prescription medicine far outnumbers the Canadians who come to the states for surgery or testing.
If the Canadian healthcare system is so bad, why are so many Americans taking advantage of it?

Im eight months pregnant and I've recently started to have a guilty concience about my vitamins, I've been pretty good about taking them but b4 i got pregnant i had never been a good pill taker and sometimes i now forget to take my vitamins for days at a time. I seem to be in the habit of doing a 2wk on 1 wk off type of routine and i dont realize it until its already over. Is it going to affect my baby since i had a weird vitamin schedule? and didnt always take them?

Water vapur drives a piston to accomplish work. What amount of work is done when 25.0 g of water at 373 K (100 degrees celsius) is vapourized to steam, pushing a piston against 1 atm of pressure?

nliqu=nvap= 25gX(1molH2O/18g)

delta volume= Vvap-Vliq

Vvap=nvapRT/P

W=(Pext)(deltaV)=nvapRT
=(25/18)molx8.31J/mol-kX373K
=4.30 kJ

Just don't get how they got W to equal to nvapRT...

The acid reducing drugs have histamine blockers, but I don't understand, if they do then why do you have a cough during the night & sneeze & blow your nose many time's? Why is that a side affect if it's blocking histamine?

My brother called me last night to let me know his daughter has lice. I have 4 children and they are with my brother's children daily at grandma's house. I checked my children, 3 are ok and I found some bugs and nits on my oldest daughter (she helps grandma a lot with the younger ones). I used RID on her last night and a comb-out gel, however I'm not comfortable waiting 7 days for the next treatment like the bottle says. Can I use the shampoo again on her tonight?

My boyfriend is an incredible guy. He is sweet, good looking, funny, and smart. He is a musician and creates the most beautiful songs, some of them for me! We have been together about a year. We moved in together almost right away. I work and take care of the house while he works on his craft. Once he makes it big, he promises he will take care of me. The thing is, I love doing all this stuff. I love him and I want to take care of him, so I like doing stuff like his laundry and cooking for him. My mothers says he is using me and I should leave. I would just tell her to butt out, but she is paying for my schooling. I pay for everything else, but she pays for that and she is saying she won't anymore because I am dating a no-good. How do I explain he is not a no-good, but a rock star on the rise??? Help!!! My heart is breaking!!!
