Monks and yogis never masturbate. Boxers abstain in the lead-up to fights. Can anyone point to good documentation of why this is?

Einstein-The speed of light is the only constant it is always the same.--- Bible- Jesus is the light and He never Changes --- Einstein- Everthing else gives way to the constant of Light inclucing time and space --- Bible- Jesus is the only way ----Einsein- The closer that you get to the speed of light the slower you age. ---- Bible- If you live with Jesus you will live forever ---- Einstein --If you obtain the speed of light that you would never age--It just goes on and on

If we believe the Bible is true then we will be against what the Bible is against. Namely the Liberals who want to remove the Faith of Christianity from America. To do this we must vote out ever Democrat starting at the lowly dog catcher all the way up to the Senators. You kill a tree by cutting off its roots.

Conservation of matter states the matter can not be created nor destroyed but yet as a group of 6 middle school teachers from Maine we were attempting to develop a demonstration of this law and were stumped. Can you help us?

The details:
What we tried
Materials: 1000ml flask with 500ml water covered with a balloon containing 2 crushed Alka Seltzer tablets.

Procedure:
1) place the closed system on a balance with the unreacted Alka Seltzer tablet held above the flask in the balloon.
2) Mass the system
3) Tip the balloon, dropping the Alka Seltzer into the water causing the gas-producing reaction
4)Remass the system

What we found:
1) Every time we did this, the system lost between 0.2 to 0.6 g of mass.

What we have already thought of and accounted for:
Air escaping- we tried less porous plastic bags (we also found that an inflated balloon and flask has a mass of air of only 0.1 g - so 0.5g loss doesn't make sense).
Bouyancy of the surrounding air- was disproven with a control system

What is the relationship between this kind of plot and significance, anyway? Wouldn't it make more sense to plot significance lines?

Earlier I asked how one would go about cloning the Earth and I got 2 very interesting answers. GeorgieGirl said I would have to clone the orbit in order for it to work. GeorgieGirl if you're still there, do you have any ideas or have you read anything as to how one would clone the orbit in which the earth sits? This is just a wild idea I have and I'm also thinking about writing a short story surrounding this idea. Any help from anybody would be appreciated.

When you have food that is hot out of the oven, does blowing on it really significantly decrease the time it takes to cool it down to a temperature that is edible? In other words if you had a fork full of hot lasagna that you just held up with one hand, and another fork that you blew on, would the temperature of the blown on food be a lot different after 60-90 seconds?

Why do you think this? This could be anything from christian believes to Metaphysical studies of a New Earth shift, anything related to it.

If we had to, for reasons such as overpopulation, how would we go about cloning our planet? Not the people or animals. Just the dirt, water and atmosphere.

Let

a=3-5x
b=2x-4
c=1-4x

y=min(a,b,c) for different values of x.

The maximum value of y is ...

(1)5/6
(2)-7/3
(3)-17/6
(4)-7/6


I did not understand this question even.

see, they are saying y=min(a,b,c)
and again asking for max of y ?

its confusing...BTW, what does it mean by min(a,b,c) ? whats this function min()?
