We've researched the net, and we now have info 'how'. The search results have resulted to different ways-through amylase, enzymes, and even bacteria. But we're having problems on the materials. Can someone give us any info that might help us? There might be a simpler process in which the materials are easier to get (in our area). The materials we need are bacterial amylse sol'n, fungal amylase powder, amyloglucoside sol'n, human salivary sol'n and some potassium phosphate buffers-and we don't have any idea on how to get them, or maybe we have, but it's still hard. We're thinking of buying but it won't be too wise since we only need a little for each. Maybe they can be replaced by some chemicals. Please... give us any info or lead on how to solve this. This problem is stopping us from starting our experiments. The school can't give us anything, there ain't one of the mentioned above in our school labs. Thanks

If I travel 8 miles South and 6 miles Southeast and then 100 miles West at the speed of 20mph, and my friend is traveling 14 miles South and 94 miles West at the speed of 15 mph, then will we arrive at the same spot at the same time?

Why do they deny the truth that they are responsible for more civilian deaths then any country in human history! They were the first and only country to use 2 weapons of mass destruction on civilians! They are the largest consumer of oil! They are the biggest producer of green house gases and CO2! Vietnam, Iraq and now Iran....for what?

Let’s not forget that the rest of the world is waking up the truth that the USA is not all that it claims.

Here we recieve different sources of news and facts, let me tell you. It’s only a matter of time before the truth hits it's people!

My son started first grade this year. He has been in school one week. I have already had two "behavior problem" notes sent home to me... For talking, clowning, not following directions, and the most recent thing: saying a "cuss" word h*ll.... :/

We had a few problems in kindergarten because he's such a happy, goofy boy. I know he's just being a kid, and I think it's wonderful that he's so happy, but I'm REALLY having a hard time nipping this one in the bud...

I don't really know how to deal with notes. I mean, the moment has passed since he got in trouble at school, so I almost feel weird about punishing him...

Also, what should I do to enforce behavior changes? I mean, I can take away his TV and video games, but he doesn't really seem to mind that too much. He just finds something else to do...

I'm just frustrated. I want him to succeed. He's SO smart and he's doing acceptionally well with the school work. He's just got behavior problems. Thanks for any advice.:)

Backed then if you didn't have enough talent, you didn't get notice. Well now it's the exact opposite, if you have to much talent, you won't get recognized, and if you have no talent, you'll most likely be in the Billboard top 50, Examples Hurricane Chris and that soujia *****, are talentless rappers, but they get all the love, and you have Joell ortiz, barely getting recognized, except for hip-hop heads. When did all that start??

Why did "god" save Abraham's SON, but allow the daughter in Judges chapter 11 to be sacrificed?
(THIS IS A SECOND POSTING BECAUSE NO ONE ANSWERED THE FIRST)
We know that the Christian God was "pleased" with blood offerings and needed blood to wash sins...the blood of christ.
But why is it the christian cult god wanted the blood of the girl in Judges?

When DNA is taken from a sex offender, do they check for any types of STD's? If so what types are they checked for? Would herpes be one of them? Please let me know if anyone has any ideas.

A lot has happened to me in the past... and because of a traumatic event, I've become extremely paranoid and anxious. I saw a psychologist for a couple of weeks three years ago... he said that I had GAD. I would get anxiety attacks at the weirdest times. Like this stinging sensation in my chest. That has finally gone away, but some things haven't. I used to open and close doors repeatedly. Over and over again. I stopped that. I forced myself to. But I do get weird images in my head. Like if I'm washing my face in the sink, my mind flashes an image that the water is really blood and that some killer is behind me waiting to murder me. I'm afraid of someone breaking into my house EVER NIGHT. I have obsessive thoughts of how I might become blind and how I might get wrinkles. I'm beginning to check things repeatedly now. I've noticed that I keep on checking the lock on my door all night. I lock it sometimes because I don't want someone to kill me.

What should I do?

In what ways can sin/evil/Satan attack? Even for the non-believers, I guess you can turn the question to mean, in what ways to BAD people with BAD intentions attack?

Let's face it, this society today is warped and sick, and there are many negative people with negative agendas.

But now onto the believers and the real question. I'm convinced that fallen people or people who don't believe in God, will have a MUCH easier time doing corrupt things, and won't care of the reprecussions. Today's society makes it EASY not to believe in God anyways. It's virtually a godless society.

Does satan use other people and places, even things/symbols, to throw off the believers, and confuse them, and try to make them fall?

Is he out to basically destroy our hope and vision and souls?

What's Satan's ultimate agenda. (for the believers, since the others will make fun of this) Is it to hurt us? Kill us? Hurt us and kill us? Make us bitter, angry, and hopeless? Make us do suicide?

WHAT!

My toilet sometimes flushes fine but often does not and will overflow unless it is plunged fast enough.

Even when I dump a pale of water into the bowl, the toilet still will not flush unless I plunge it.

I do not think there is anything wrong with the toilet and am wondering if the plumbing may be the problem.

I have look into the common problems but cannot explain why it sometimes drains fine and other times overflows.
Is it possible that too narrow of drainage pipes could be causing this? Could it be that there is a vacuum buildup preventing the flushing?

it's just the first verse but I need ideas for the last line...

Pout your lips
Flip your hair

Is there any harm to fluctuating the amount of carbs a somewhat low-carb dieter consumes per day? I sometimes fluctuate between 55g-75g and was wondering if such a fluctuation is harmful. Thanks!

(Please only answer my question. Please no low-carb bashers, anti-low-carb answers, etc. I am on a safe, monitored, nutritionally balanced diet/exercise program but sometimes slip up on my total carb intake due to my sleeping schedule).
