My (female) cousin's boating club has a guy I know who has a history of sexual assault on women, which this club is 70% comprised of. He's been with this club for 3 years and I only discovered this last year when she mentioned his name to me. I notified her about his history and advised her to pre-warn the club president so at least he's aware. She wouldn't do it because the guy is a model citizen since he joined.

My concern came true last month: he attempted rape on one female boatmate in his car after an post-race party. He's now in jail. The club is in shock. My cousin is speechless. The club president is now angry at my cousin for knowing about this for the last year. And I am angry she chose benefit of the doubt.

Can the victim sue my cousin because she knew this guy's history and kept mum? Am I also liable by association even though I have nothing to do with the victim and the boating club?

I'm getting concerned there's a going to be a chain reaction of legal events.

If you get 10 or less you're fearless.

I have a few questions regarding breastfeeding. 1. Other than increasing the times your baby feeds can you increase your amount of milk by pumping? 2. I have a 4 month old - I feel he isn't getting enough to eat. Today I fed him every two hours during the day - which is fine - but could my milk be decreasing??? He has been exclusively breastfed.
I am just worried I don't have enough milk. Thanks so much

5. In 1990, the women's record in bicycling was set by a Russian athlete. Starting at a certain speed, the bicyclist traveled 2 x 10^2 m. Suppose the initial velocity was 12 m/s and the acceleration was constant. If the final velocity was 25 m/s, what was the acceleration? How long did it take to travel this distance?

Would it be possible to bring together that many white men and women to help bring up our race...ie help out a brother or sister in need. There are so many ways that we could help eachother. We have so many white men and women out there living on the streets, or hooked on drugs because they cant get gov. assistance to get the help/treatment they need because we are not a minority. So what, we either let them keep diluting us or killing us off until we are? We need to be supportive of our brothers and sisters. How can we do that if we are all seperated by economical backgrounds? In key, we need to keep in mind who we are and where we come from. what I really want to know is how can we bring as many as we possibly can together to start helping eachother...and to actually see how our other brothers/sisters are living and see how we can help them...if we cant see what they're going through, then how can we help them? So in turn that is why I want to know would you come?

I was just transferred to a new dept, but I still have to work with my old supervisor, who I don't get a long with. Long story short, I have no respect for her, and we both know it. She is insecure, self-centered, and incompetent. Last week we had a stressful situation come up, and my old supervisor said "I need this to be fixed!" to which I replied "then fix it!" (it's easy to assign the impossible to others, isn't it?"). Well, I heard she was really upset about this, so what do I do if she talks to my new supervisor about it? Do I take the high road and remain silent about how much pressure she puts on me? Or do I lay all the cards on the table? BTW..my new supervisor really likes me and the head of my department likes me, so i'd almost rather remain silent, and let time show him the truth. On the other hand, I feel he will need to side with a fellow supervisor and he may also worry he has a "problem" employee on his hands, which will tarnish my reputation. What do I do?

I am looking for a "theme" of sorts, without doing the same ole thing you see in everyone's kitchen. My dishes and accessories are these colors: hunter green, olive green, black, brown, and tan. Any neutrals would be perfect, but I'm not sure of what to get. I was reading in an earlier post and liked the pottery idea. I have lots of cabinet top and wall space for decor and currently there is just ivy there. I need other ideas to brainstorm and still keep my colors as the dishes, etc are fairly new. thanks!

The component of a computer system are its hardware, software, and data. The
operating system provides the means for the proper use of these resources in the
operation of the computer system. The operating system is like a government. The
operating system performs no useful function by itself. It simply provides an
environment within which other programs can do useful work.

3. The polar bear is an excellent swimmer, and it spends a large part of its time in the water. Suppose a polar bear wants to swim from an iceberg to a place in shore where seals gather. The bear starts swimming at a velocity of 2.60 m/s. By the time it reaches the shore, its velocity has decreased to 2.20 m/s. If the polar bear's swim takes 9 minutes and it has a constant deceleration, what is the distance traveled by the polar bear?

4. A daredevil motorcycle rider pops a wheelie at a velocity of 8 m/s. He finds he needs to speed up to maintain this stuntm and so accelerates at 2 m/s^2 and travels 40 m during this acceleration.
a. What is the rider's velocity after the acceleration?
b. How much time did it take to travel this distance?

Physics question, I can't seem to get this problem, please help.?
Two forces, 381N at 8deg. & 307N at 25deg. are applied to a car in an effort to accelerate it.?
What is the magnitude of the resultant of
these two forces?

What is the direction of the resultant force (in re-
lation to forward, with counterclockwise con-
sidered positive)?????
within the
limits of -180deg to 180deg

Additional Details


655.52 was the answer for the first question... and so if 655.52 is the resultant force, what is the direction of deg?
