When you have a barbecue you burn the fuel to produce the heat needed to cook your food. When you have finished you have used up some fuel. But you have not used up the atoms in the fuel-the atoms are still somewhere. They have been conserved.

Q1)
If you used charcoal as the fuel,what happens to the atoms in the charcoal??

2) If you have used a gas barbecue, the fuel is natural gas (methane or butane) What happens to the atoms in a fuel?

3) Explain why, from the point of view of air quality,it is better to "get rid" of garden rubbish by composting rather than burning???

When the film as a whole passed scrutiny.

""Children's Minister Kevin Brennan had earlier said: "It is important to be clear that the central arguments put forward in An Inconvenient Truth, that climate change is mainly caused by man-made emissions of greenhouse gases and will have serious adverse consequences, are supported by the vast weight of scientific opinion.

"Nothing in the judge's comments today detract from that.

this lady don't like to take orders from me! here is how i ask
Hey lady, (i use her name) I am slammed with this crap will you give me a hand? she says yes most the time or makes up some lame excuse, but she ends up not doing it or re asking boss lady if she is allowed or something along those lines!

my boss is aware of this and says to just bring i my task list and she will highlight what she want's the Lady to do for me! she signs it and i give it to lady.

finding the boss at times is a time comsuming activitie and therefore could have had the work of mine and what i'm passing on completed..
you see my sistuation parts of it what you do think!
is it me? is it her not wanting to listen to me? ect.. any advice!

Another wedding gift question. I am appalled at how many happy couples do not send thank you notes for wedding gifts.
One bride in my husband's family told another relative that she was "too busy". Apparently her time is far more important than the time, money, and energy I expended to send her eight dinner plates of her everyday china.
I don't want to do anything to encourage this trend, which I think is selfish, greedy, slovenly, and inexcusable. But on the other hand, I would like to know if these people got their gifts. This is my idea. Some store which offers a gift registry should have the bride and groom fill in a short reason that they are choosing each gift, e.g., we love this contemporary silverware pattern. Then, when a gift-giver has had a gravy ladle from the registry sent to the couple, the store registry can send the gift-giver a note saying "the gravy ladle you chose from the registry was sent today. The couple told us that they love this contemporary pattern."

I was friends with a guy at my job. He used to fix my car for free because he is a mechanic and we were good friends. My car had bad problems so he used his credit card and bought me parts for over $500. I told him I would make up a contract to pay him back. he refused. Meanwhile he started dating a co-worker and friend of mine. Once she found out that I owed him money she harrassed me almost daily via phone and texts. She claimed it was him but he never acted like that. She got her friends to call my cell and actually went to my dad's house telling him I cursed her out and refused to pay. I don't live at home btw. My dad was mad at me for being bothered and he believed her! I agreed to pay him $20 a week and what I could but I stopped talking to both of them because of all the harassing. Involving my family really made me enraged. What would you do?
