I built 6 robots as slaves for my factory. They can leave if they can figure out their eye color. 4 have green eyes and 2 have red eyes. They were not built to communicate with each other in any shape or form.

First day, before work, I tell them:
1. they are all identical, with the same software for clear logical thinking and reasoning abilities.
2. they think identically.
3. only difference is I built them using different eye colors.
4. they can't see their own faces/eyes anywhere but they can see each other.
5. they must meet each evening after work to see if anyone can figure out their own eye color.
6. if a robot knows its eye color then it must go to its room, pack, and leave at midnight: it is free from slavery.
7. if a robot does not know its eye color then it must go to its room, sleep the night, work another day, and then come to the evening meeting.

Explain exactly what happens.

My brothers wish is to be cremated by pyre when he passes. I have found nothing so far which is helpful on the Web. I need to know how to construct a pyre, what type of wood is used, how long it needs to burn, environmental concerns, U.S. law permiting or restricting a "home" pyre, ...anything and everything else which is pertinant.
If you have any practical knowledge of this, or have ever been involved in the construction of a funeral pyre please respond.

My 9 yr old daughter has always been very....spirited. She talks non stop and is easily distracted from simple tasks like brushing her teeth or getting dressed. It takes her forever to do the smallest task because she gets sidelined so many times. She may be borderline ADD but at this point I don't feel she needs medication as she does well in school.

What can I do to keep our school mornings running smoothly and keep her focused on the task at hand, besides yelling..."C'mon Summer, brush you teeth!" I get tired of repeating myself and she gets tired of me constantly badgering her to get done.

What can I do to help her??

Saturn 2000 SL 4DR, 1.9 Liter.
After leaving from CDN Tire after getting an e-test I noticed that the Air Bag, the Service Engine Soon Light, and the Service Engine lights were all on. I think that this is to coincidental and that they must be related. The only answer I got from Canadian Tire was to bring it in and spend 80 bucks to hook it up to their computer.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

So I for one feel MUCH better.
The bible is so very wrong about so very much that I can rest easy now.
Here is the laughable link;
http://asteroid2039.com/
They even write, on the first page "NASA doesn't think it will hit."
But apparently, reassurances from actual scientists doesn't make these guys feel any better. They go on to say that their book of bronze-age jewish mythology says differently so they'll believe that before actual, credible scientists.
And they wonder why more and more people consider christians to be insane cultists?

I am guessing that, as years go by, people we hate, people who hate us (other countries), is getting less and less. Like when England and Germany could not stand each other. And see Spain had no love for England, either. Based on this, I am guessing that in about 200-300 more years, there will be no more wars. We ALL will finally had "enough" of war.

What do you all think?

About a year ago we bought a 10 gallon tank, and it seemed it would be fun if we got some Platies and Mollys, in total we had:

2 Orange Mollies
3 White Platies
3 Orange Platies
4 Neon Tetras
1 Algae Eater
(and some lefter over feeder guppies from a science fair project.)

The problem is, the mollies and the platies have cross bred to creat one REALLY hardy fish. Or should i say "some" really hardy fish. A bit of a short estimate would be around 60-70 fish, and we have given away 56 of them to friends, but the more we give away, the more that keep coming. They are all about 1-3 inches. And we just don't know what to do with them, we have asked pet stores and relatives a like, but none will take our fish. The pet store has told us to bag them and throw them in the garbage, but we just can't bring ourselves to it. I want to get rid of them "naturally", and i need your help. Please help our overpopulated civilization that is our tank. Any ideas would be apreciated.

Everyone talks about the AP Poll but it's not used to determine the BCS standings. Wouldn't the USAToday Coaches Poll or Harris Interactive be a better measuring stick of where a team is really ranked?

By the way, I'm not a big fan of these polls, just wondering why the AP...Thanks!
