-Written human history does not exceed ~4-6 thousand years
-The Bible is a written account of history that is verifiable archeologically on many levels
-Carbon-14 present in coal and diamonds
-Potassium-Argon dating of objects of KNOWN dates off by hundreds of thousands and millions of years
-Dinosaur bones with soft-tissue; mummified dinosaurs
-Every major culture has a flood myth in their culture
-Living fossils have not fundamentally changed in tens of millions of years
-Cambrian Explosion contains almost every major phyla of animal, but Pre-Cambrian rocks contain no ancestors of diminishing complexity
-Not one true undisputed transitional fossil (so evolutionists label everything a transitional)
-No viable mechanism for the extremely large increase in functional genetic information as required by evolution(mutations, natural selection, polyploidy, gene duplication represent a loss, scrambling, or copying of information)
-Tightly bent rock strata and polystrate fossils

Our question is to find the circumference of a soccer ball. Given was the 276.2in^3 volume of the ball. I tried to work backwards divide by 3.14 to get that, but all I have as a calculator is my cellular phone, obviously without cube root function.

my question is how long does the high pressure gennerally stay there, and/or does it (the pressure) weaken? hurricane dean has yet to reach the gulf coast, is it possible for that pressure to change before the hurricane is actually in the gulf?

Please recommend a good text/resource about the design of power transmission lines. I'm interested in knowing about the qualitative decisions: the physical tensions of the lines, use of mechanical vibration dampers, are lines a continuous cable or separate segments between each of the towers. What bad things happen if the spacing between cables, insulators at towers, etc. are not uniform? How do power lines work where there are pairs of cables rather than one: what are the benefits and design constraints? I'm interested in a breadth of knowledge rather than a depth: I want to understand the engineering tradeoffs. If an online reference exists that talks about such things, great. If you feel like diving in and giving a brief survey of the engineering principles, that's even better. Otherwise, please recommend a text that provides a survey of the engineering issues in electrical power transmission line design. Thanks!

Right now the radiation is Microwaves and in many years it will be radio waves. So 1) does this mean if i but on microwave glasses i could see the radiation (i know it is faint) and if i could what would it look like? And Number 2. Would there have been a time when the radiation was say Yellow wisable light? If there was how would we have "seen" it?

I'm a little confused. I'm reading all about the flooding, loss of life and devastation that Hurricane Erin has caused and the current threat is Hurricane Dean. I looked up Hurricane names and they say they go in alphabetical order so can someone please explain this to me. Obviously Dean should be before Erin???
