In other words, if a person or persons drive around in their electric cars, and the city they live in has a power failure, would their cars have a power failure as well?

The stratosphere has been on a long-term cooling trend since global balloon coverage became available in the 1950's.

Climatologists explain this by the increased greenhouse effect, which traps more heat at the surface, allowing less heat to escape to the stratosphere.

Since AGW skeptics don't believe increased CO2 is responsible for the warming surface, what mechanism do they propose that can warm the surface AND cool the stratosphere at the same time?

Estimate the percentage of polonium (^210 Po) that remains in a sample after 2 years. Round to the nearest hundredth of a percent. (note...half life of 138 days)

also....

The Rhind papyrus contains most of what we know today of ancient Egyptian mathematics. A chemical analysis of a sample from the papyrus has shown that it contains approx. 75% of its original carbo-14. Estimate the age of the Rhind papyrus.

On a recent trip to Texas my truck started bogging down, I couldn't get any speed and everytime I attempted to climb a hill the max speed I could get was like 30 miles an hour.
I finally pulled into a auto parts store and asked them to put the diagnostics machine on. They gave me several very expensive diagnosis. Having recently done a little work on the truck, their diagnostics didn't sound true.
I called my Brother who owns a trucking company in Houston. After explaining what was going on, he agreed with me.
He informed me that there was alot of bad gas out there, he felt like it was the fuel filter.
Now this fuel filter is under the truck, right under the drivers seat. It is an inline filter and cost a whopping $7.50. There is also a little package of clamps that the parts house sells for another $7.00, you have to clamp these little pac man type clamps on the nipples of the inline filter, to get the old on off.
(more to come)

Ok, we know the earth has been around for approximately 5 billion years, and in that time has undergone both warmer and cooler periods than the present climate. Most life thrives in a warmer climate, although some species do prefer the cold. So the question becomes - what is the "ideal" temperature of the earth, and who (or what) is that ideal for?

Please support with examples. Which specie or species are you placing priority on for your "ideal," and why?

Where is he? He's been missing for some time now.
Do you think he may speak out against Scientology? Wouldn't that hurt Scientology! Since he knows the real story behind so much of the church's practices.

if you can be married in heaven?.....just sit and ask if it WAS possible to have my bride in heaven. Do you even care? I have to look at your souls, and hear you say to me that there is no need for us in heaven. Once we are done serving God with each other(breeding) he has no further use with us and we don't care anyway, because there is going to be something better then this thing in heaven.......say this to each other, eye to eye.....there is going to be somthing better then you in heaven. How does it feel? God promised my soul that I will be married in heaven, and have the joys of Jesus. Because I asked him.....

do you even love him or her, to even sit with God the father in prayer and ask for heaven? or do you just want to get rid of her or him??


I know what the bible says, and it talks different to me....all your answers, I have this spirit that shows me this way of seeing them and it shows marriage in heaven.

My husbands uncle just passed. I need to write a letter to my husbands aunt and cousin. I meet them a couple years ago when they came to the states to visit for a couple weeks he was really a very good hearted man from what I have witnessed and heard. He left a everlasting impression on all of our families children as well. He was very funny and a joy to be around. Ofcourse losing a family member must be very difficult. Absolutly heart breaking. However I don't think it would be a proper thing to say to them. I also really don't believe that would be anything they would like to hear either. I'm not a very comforting person. I happen to be too blunt and when I'm confused or nervous I tend to ramble on. See take what you have read so far for an example. So does anyone have any suggestions or examples of how I should write the letter and what I should say. My husband is even worse off than I am. He lost his sister recently and still has not dealt with it. He asked me to write it for him.

I have to do a research paper for a class and I was wondering if I could ask ya'll for some info.

I don't know if this is correct but-did the time for overseas deployment change from 1 year to 15 months? If so, then when and why?

What is the max time that you can be deployed?

Does the deployment time change from different military branches? For example, in the Army would then time be different then say, the Marines?

Would time be dependent on situation?

Are there any regulations the military must follow when deploying a person? Such as they have to be home so many months, etc.

In your opinion why is this a good idea/bad idea?

thank you all so much! :)

What would be the best remedy for separation and moving on? We have signed a year lease and we are only in the second month. Niether of us can afford to take on the bills alone if one of us moved out. But we are not getting along and he is being disrespectful and somewhat violent - breaking our photo frames and punching marks into the walls. This isn't how I pictured it and I don't know if I can stay.
