Hi.
I was wondering if there is such a board game as Maharaja.
We play it at home but I am not sure if it is popular around the world.
You play it on a chess board and it is 80% like chess. One of the sides plays with 16 pieces, like normal chess. The other plays with the Maharaja. It is a lonely queen that can move like a knight as well. It does not have the problem of checks etc. Its task is to put checkmate to the opponent king (since it can move like a knight as well, it can put checkmate on its own).
The other opponent's task is to conquer the Maharaja, which is not easy though.
The question is if such a game exists. Maybe the name is different. Do you know any such game?

I know this isn't a religious question but I love the R&S group and I haven't been here for a while. Hope everyone is going ok.

A blonde and a lawyer are seated next to each other on a flight from LA to NY. The lawyer asks if she would like to play a fun game. The blonde, tired, just wants to take a nap, politely declines and rolls over to the window to catch a few winks.

The lawyer persists and explains that the game is easy and a lot of fun. He explains, "I ask you a question, and if you don't know the answer, you pay me $5.00, and vise versa."

Again, she declines and tries to get some sleep.

The lawyer, now agitated, says, "Okay, if you don't know the answer you pay me $5.00, and if I don't know the answer, I will pay you $500.00."

This catches the blonde's attention and, figuring there will be no end to this torment unless she plays, agrees to the game.

The lawyer asks the first question.

"What's the distance from the earth to the moon?"

The blonde doesn't say a word, reaches into her purse, pulls out a $5.00 bill and hands
it to the lawyer.

"Okay" says the lawyer, "your turn."

She asks the lawyer, "What goes up a hill with three legs and comes down with four legs?"

The lawyer, puzzled, takes out his laptop computer and searches all his references, no answer. He taps into the air phone with
his modem and searches the net and the library of congress, no answer.

Frustrated, he sends e-mail to all his friends and coworkers, to no avail. After an hour, he wakes the blonde, and hands her $500.00.

The blonde says, "Thank you", and turns back to get some more sleep.

The lawyer, who is more than a little miffed, wakes the blonde and asks, "Well, what's the answer?"

Without a word the blonde shrugs, reaches into her purse, hands the lawyer $5.00, and goes back to sleep.

I don't think people realy understand what that means when they say "all". The Klu Klux Klan and Neo-Nazis for example, are a culture and beleif and I don't think they should be tolerated. Now all i am doing is not tolerating someone because they are not tollerant, which is hypocritical. So then i am now faced with a dilema,what cultures and beleifs should not be tolerated and by what form of judgment/laws do i base this on.

Ok, I live in the Conservative South, and we have long been known for "Southern Hospitality".
Women are referred to as "ma'am", doors are opened for them, and everyone is pretty much nice to everyone else, in general.

However, I have traveled a lot, and have been to northern, more Liberal areas such as Vermont and new York, and it seems to me that people from these places are nothing but jerks. You can't even get the time of day from someone on the street, and if you call someone "ma'am", you get a feminist tirade about how being nice is apparently sexist.

Is it just me, or do Conservatives just seem to be more amiable and nice than Liberals? Now, don't look mainly at the Politicians, because Politicians act however can get them elected. ( For instance, say Dick Cheney and Nancy Pelosi are both major jerks, but Reagan and Clinton were both nice-guys)

Just based on voting populations alone, do you think that Republicans are just nicer people?

Last night I was feeling very nausiated and dizzy, but I ate healthy and went to the gym in the morning before I started feeling ill (I did 75 minutes of cardio [1150 calories] and then 1 hour of leg and ab weights/exericses [switching back and forth]). This morning I had a bowel movement and there was a clot of bright red blood (it didn't hurt, however). When I wiped, there was blood as well. I am feeling dizzy and a bit nausiated today as well. What could this be? Is this something very serious? Should I go to a doctor? And if so, right away or can it wait until after I've finished working. Is it a bad idea to workout today? Thank you for your answers. I am a bit scared right now.

A rod with mass M = 1.4 kg and length L = 1.2 m is mounted on a central pivot . A metal ball of mass m = 0.7 kg is attached to one end of the rod. You may treat the metal ball as a point mass. The system is oriented in the vertical plane and gravity is acting. The rod initially makes an angle θ = 27 with respect to the horizontal. The rod is released from rest. What is the angular acceleration of the rod immediately after it is released?

Is there another side to having an affair with a married woman?

1. Suppose a classmate of yours has missed lecture for the last week. Write a full solution of the following problem so that your classmate can use it to help catch up with the material. you need to explain in detail each step of the precess you use to get to an answer.

a sled weighing 100.0N is pulled horizontally across snow so that the coefficient of kinetic friction between sled and snow is 0.2. A penquin weighing 70.0N rides on the sled, as in the figure.
(a) to start with, the penquin digs in his claws so he is firmly attached to the sled. What value of F do you need for the sled and penguin to move at constant speed?
(b) after a while, our penguin gets tired of holding on with his claws. Now the coefficient of static friction between penguin and sled is 0.7, find the maximum horizontal force that can be exerted on the sled before the penguin begins to slide off.
