I only remember the one thing where theres no gravity in space so in one of the pics the flag looked like it was moving as if there was a breeze. Without gravity it should stay still. Does anyone know any other thing about why we might not have landed on the moon?
Yes I do thing we really landed on the moon. I just want to know the other people reasonings.

He's a physicist/chemist, English, a faithful Sandermanian Christian, he rejected knighthood and refused to be president of the royal society and refrained from participating in manufacturing chemical weapons for the Crimean Wars.
We owe him about half what we know about electricity

Dr. Bieber was one of the key participants in the historical debate which culminated in the 1973 decision to remove homosexuality from the psychiatric manual.

His paper describes psychiatry's attempt to adopt a new "adaptational" perspective of normality. During this time, the profession was beginning to sever itself from established clinical theory--particularly psychoanalytic theories of unconscious motivation--claiming that if we do not readily see "distress, disability and disadvantage" in a particular psychological condition, then the condition is not disordered.

On first consideration, such a theory sounds plausible. However we see its startling consequences when we apply it to a condition such as pedophilia. Is the happy and otherwise well-functioning pedophile "normal"? As Dr. Bieber argues in this article, psychopathology can be ego-syntonic and not cause distress; and social effectiveness.. http://www.narth.com/docs/normalization.html

A bird comes along and takes the end of the string in its beak and then flys in ever increasing circles around and around the pole until the string is completely straightened out in the one mile length. Disregard the fact that the string would be a big ball of string at the top of the pole. Assume for this calculation that the string is coming from the top centre of the pole. The size of the pole has nothing to do with the calculation. The diameter of the
pole has nothing to do with the calculation.

I'm having a lot of trouble with this. i get 1/(x+y)(1+dy/dx)=
I don't get how to differentiate the right side. In an example in my book they used 2^2/x and set the exponent to u making it u=2x^-1 and found du/dx= -2x^-2 or -2/x^2. and then plugged into the original problem you get -2e^(2/x)/x^2. i put the paranthesis there so it doesn't get confusing. so if anyone can help me get the right side im sure i'll be able to solve this problem. thanks again =D

my detail button doesn't work so i hadda to post again!! thanks loll. i used what all of you said and i have a multiple choice practice test n im like thinkin why none of the choices have x^2 loll its Ln(x+y)=e^(x/y) is the CORRECT problem geez yall im so sorry lol.

If I invent a time machine tomorrow, and the first thing I want to do with it is travel forward in time, will this be possible? Will they be expecting me? Will anything exist if I go forward?

Blackholes and light itself can be visible to the naked eye while deep into the 4th dimension. If traveling near the speed of light or on a massively dense planet(ie neutron star) we would be able to see things with the naked eye that would be impossible to see on earth. Space would no longer be black but rather rainbow? A blackhole would look like a swirling rainbow of various colours. We would be able to see light bend around planets and objects just as we can see air bend around objects in a windtunnel.

portion of a sample letter parents can write: "Homosexuality has no place in our schools. This is not an issue where there are two valid sides, any more than there are two valid sides to drug or alcohol use by students.There is no rational reason to recommend homosexual experimentation to vulnerable and impressionable students. As a behavior, it is totally unnecessary for those participating in this lifestyle. While I feel compassion for those students involved, they need help, not so-called "support" to continue down a dangerous path."
Thoughts of Christian parents please?
