My baby racoon was injured by another wild animal. He has a large chunck of flesh hanging from the corner of his eye, cut almost to the end of his nose. you literally can see inside his head. His eyeball is still intack, but sunk in a little. Under his tail he also has another wound. He hasn't let me get a good look. from what i can see, it is bruised and swelled badly. right under his tail i've caught glimpses of torn flesh, but can't tell how bad. I've been using ointment (antibiotic ) on his face, he bites when i touch underneath. Im afraid of him having internal injuries. so far his stool looks normal. i don't know what to look for otherwise. I can't take him to a vet, being he is a wild animal. I've raised him since he was a little baby. I know he doesn't have rabbies, but i fear whatever got a hold of him did. My kids and I want to try and save him, please help us. He is our pet.

Hi guys,

I have heard a shocking news from my herbal docter, that the Zoloft, an SSRI, may cause the permenent sexual disfuction.

I want to know if this is true.

What do you think?

faster than light has always been thought of as being dreadfully important to space travel. bu how important is it realy. What im really asking is do we need FTL to expand into space. And if not how we would cope.

We have been told that it would take 4 years travelling at the speed of light to reach the nearest star (other than the sun). We are also told that the faster we travel, time is dilated, ie a pilot of a spaceship traveling at close to the speed of light would percieve time differently to an observer on Earth. So the questions is, from who's perspective would it take 4 year to reach the nearest star, the pilot or the earthbound observer?

At some point the body (brain) no longer functions and is unable to realize it's condition. One may know they are dying, but from the point of death, all memory function is gone along with the life it held, therefore no realization one is dead. Does this mean we never really die, as the last thing we remember, is the last thing we remember?

We know that in summer we are close to sun and in winter we are far from sun. We also know that the gravitational force is inversely proportional to distance. It means that sun's gravitational force on earth during winter (Aphelion) is less as compared to summer ( Perihelion). According to Newton's gravitational law, centrifugal and centripetal forces should be equal in order to have body in circular motion. Centrifugal force depends on Velocity of object. So does it mean that Velocity of earth DECREASES in winter ( Aphelion) as compared to Summer ( perihelion) in order to balance the centrifugal and centripetal forces?????????

I have a 10" newtonian mirror in a semi-working home made telescope. Can I send the primary mirror to a lab and have them cut a hole in it to make a schmidt casegrain ? I know I need a special secondary concave mirror, but can they drill a hole in the primary mirror once its coated or do I have to pay for a new coating ?
