Why have street lights on roads and roundabouts? You see there are these things called Headlights they often come in pairs and are on all vehicles, they light up the way for us and there are these things called reflectors which also assist when the the headlights hit these they bounce back and create even more light.

Then we could all watch the activities of the beautiful night sky and SAVE ENERGY, NUCLEAR WASTE and MONEY.

The street light Manufacturers could get more useful jobs instead such as, the Production of Solar Lanterns which aren't as bright but would be more harmonic and still guide the drunk drivers and people who don't look at the roads whist driving.

And limit the amount of offensive Christmas lights!

A. THE FORMATION OF THE NEW TESTAMENT CANON (A.D. 100-220)
http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/03274a.htm
The idea of a complete and clear-cut canon of the New Testament existing from the beginning, that is from Apostolic times, has no foundation in history. The Canon of the New Testament, like that of the Old, is the result of a development, of a process at once stimulated by disputes with doubters, both within and without the Church, and retarded by certain obscurities and natural hesitations, and which did not reach its final term until the dogmatic definition of the Tridentine Council. ("Canon of the New Testament")
There is a lot of confusion about the earliest existing texts of the Bible. The oldest extant manuscript of the Bible is believed to be the Codex Vaticanus, (preserved in the Vatican Library), which is slightly older than the Codex Sinaiticus (preserved in the British Library), both of which were transcribed in the fourth century.

The check engine light in my truck came on, and I took it to the dealer. They told me that my purge hose was split, and that it would be a few days before it would come in. They said that it was fine to drive, but I was wondering if it is ok to drive without, what exactly does it do?

How did this symbol come to be their fighting symbol and do you think the Russians fear such a fighter that wears such a symbol, when engaged in vicious combat with them?

What are your personal views regarding this symbol?

I would like to hear comments from those individuals who are from Chechnya and are now living in other countries.

Thank you in advance.

I need some good effective tips for losing weight the healthy way.What foods must I eliminate from my diet and which are the lowest in fat?Does the time schedule of the meals count so much when you are on a diet and does bread have so much fat?Cause they say you need to cut the bread from your diet if you want to lose weight... I'm used to eating 200 g of bread daily,I know it's much,but can I replace it with something lower in fat?
Thank you so much!

I'm having a tough time with three different problems. Thanks for your help!

1. In the equation (1/5)^m x (1/4)^8 = 1/(2(10)^35), what is m? According to the book, m=35. Could you please explain how they got that answer?

2. Two circles with a diameter of 1 are connected by 15 ft. conveyer belt. What is the distance between the centers of the two circles. The answer is supposed to be (15-pi)/2. Please explain.

3. Finally, I'm having problems with addition and subtraction of numbers with exponents. For example, 10^8-10^2 / 10^7 - 10^3. The answer is 10, but is there an easy way to solve this question w/o multiplying it all out on a calculator?

Thanks for your help!

I have no interest in this. It is an academic question. I have a puggle that is very playful. She does aggressive play with other dogs, and cats, and little kids who play tug of war with her. She barks and growls at other dogs then when they come up to her she rolls on her back and licks them. My question is for real dog people (I am not, I just like my puggle but don't know much about dogs) or behaviour scientists. Is vicousness in dogs nature or nurture? Obviously certain breeds are used for fighting because of their physical power and strong jaws. But could Mike Vick and his cousins teach a harmless dog like mine to be vicious enough to engage in fights with other dogs her own size or is it all determined by breeding? Can we do rescues when we find kennels like the Bad Newz Kennel of Michael Vick? If it is all learned behaviour it should be unlearnable. If it is genetic behaviour then it is a much sadder story.

I'm really shy by nature & work within a place of several , 6 of whom i work with closely and the rest is the "pleasant acknowledgment" but thats all. because i'm shy i feel insecure at times about being boring and being left out. the others are 7+ years older than me (i'm 23) yet sometimes act like theyre 16 and i dont really wish to join in. however theres one girl who is always sarcastic to me and has upset others as well as myself. in the end i sit at my desk, work and keep to myself because i dont like this girl much and when i do try, she is mean or simply pretends i'm not there. another worker acknowledges me but wont bother having much to do with me, am i giving off the impression i am there to work and thats all? i want to make friends with them but this one cow has to be centre of attention and being shy i end up alone and left out from "coffee breaks" etc as i choose to keep to myself and not put up with her rubbish. the others are wary of her but still want to be around her
