Mars Sphinx : http://www.planetarymysteries.com/egypt/sphinxmars.html

The most important recurring feature found in the mathematics of Cydonia is the value 0.865 -- derived from the ratio of e (an important mathematical constant equal to 2.7) and pi (the mathematical constant of 3.142 used to work out the properties of spheres and circles). This Hoagland terms the "message of Cydonia."

A trigonometrical function, the arc tangent of e/pi, gives the value of 40.8 which is the Mars latitude on which both the "D&M Pyramid" and the "NK Pyramid" are sited. Amazingly, another trigonometrical function, the cosine of e/pi, gives the value 30 -- the exact geographical latitude of the pyramids of Giza on Earth.

Hoagland has demonstrated that the Great Pyramid of Giza contains "tetrahedral" functions identical to those of the "D&M Pyramid" on Mars, and Torun has shown that the positioning of the Great Sphinx, relative to the pyramids, expresses the Cydonian ratio e/pi.

"The odds of such correlations happening by coincidence on two neighbouring planets are somewhere in the region of one in 7,000," says Hoagland. What makes coincidence look even less likely is a bizarre link to another ancient site on Earth.

One of the key angles of Cydonia, repeated again and again, is 19.5 degrees. this is precisely the latitude (19.5 degrees north) of the mysterious Mexican city of Teotihuacan, 'the place where men became gods', with its three distinctive pyramids dedicated respectively to the Sun, the Moon, and to Quetzalcoatl, the Central American counterpart of Osiris.

50 mL of 2M NaBr is reacted with excess Cl2. The Br2 gas given off is collected. What volume would the gas occupy at 298 K and 1 atm?

Answering this correctly with work shown will get you ten points.

Just wondering.

I don't know if the teacher will have a
set or not and am aware of how much
they usually go for, but I just wanted to
know before I go to school and ask
in front of a bunch of morons.

It's like you have to force it down.
Is there some scientific reason behind this?

D Rail put up this crap math question, I spent fifteen minutes pondering it, and then, with the correct answer and an explanation as to why (it was 900, btw) I hit "answer this question" only to find he had removed it.

So now my question is EXACTLY how annoying is D Rail.

I'll start. D Rail is as annoying as proudly finishing a math probelm only to have the teacher tell you that he doesn't give a flying fork what your answer is.

Anyone else?

Would this work?
You have a craft that can go straight up and down.
It breaks the gravitational pull of the earth and hangs in space, full of travellers, whilst the earth naturally spins around.
Wait until the country you want to go to is under you and re-enter the earths atmostphere.

just an idea...

I want to get an estimate of how much I need to save for gas each month. I'll be driving 80 miles a week, for a total of about 320 miles a month. Let's round up and have gas prices be $3.00 per gallon. I drive a 1996 Honda. Let's say that I'll drive on average, at 45 miles per hour.

I just need an ESTIMATE of how much I'll need to spend on gas.

Other folks are asking "Should we accept 3 new planets, or say goodbye to Pluto as a planet?" type questions. Thing is: this is entirely in the hands of the IAU (International Astronomical Union) so "we" have no say in the matter. So I'm asking a more relevant question: What if you DON'T accept the IAU's decison? What are you going to do about it?

I need a site that is up to date, somewhat of a seismological authority, global, graphical (has charts, maps, etc) covers both land and sea activity, quake and volcano.

Basically, I'm doing a small report on Pacific Rim Plate activity over the last few years, and the more chartable, mappable data I have, the better.

Thanks.

2. Some of the laws that govern nature cannot be detected by scientists.
3. It is quite possible that in some other galaxy the laws of physics are fundamentally different than the laws we are acquainted with in this galaxy.

I just found 3 small Ticks that I thought were Deer Ticks. Except they were all brown/red. The legs were not black like the typical Deer Tick, they had coloring like the body, more red than brown, and they didn't have the gray markings like a Dog Tick or the gray spot like the Lone Star Tick. The body was a tear drop shape and it was just a little longer than 1/16", not including the legs. So far I haven't found out what kind it is. We live in a city and have 2 indoor cats so I know it's not from them. We were just over a friends house and they live in a more wooded area of Saugus, Massachusetts. Is there a 4th type of Tick that would be in this area and have the same details as the 3 I found?

If the atmosphere gets thinner and thinner, and gravity diminishes as you increase elevation, why cant shuttles, or jets for that matter, simply go higher and higher, until they just slip out into space? (Why is it so hard to escape the upper atmosphere that is so thin, and gravity so light?)
