I noticed that the voice that i hear of myself is different from what I hear when I record my voice. Then, I asked other people if this is my voice and they said it is. So does the voice you hear of yourself have a different sound than how others hear it?

I'm thinking of taking window tinting film slightly bigger than the windshield and sticking hair thin copper wires to the sticky side about 1 cm apart from each other (like the rear window). Then sticking that to the inside of the windshield and trimming the edges. Then painstakingly attaching each heating wire to a larger wire at the left and right sides of the windshield and suppling power to those wires. It should get warm enough to defrost or defog. But I'm worried about the plastic melting, bad visibility, wires breaking on installation or air bubbles. Does anybody know where I can get something like this already made or better ideas on how to build this.

No wiki or dictionary please. I just want a simple (5th grade) explanation of these two concepts and how they are used as a method in science.

Explain the general process of both, and how they basically differ.

Law of science = physics, biology, chemistry or what have you that mankind have proved and will prove to be fact.

Since science is not a game of chance but "exact science" it's very difficult for me to imagine that the guiding principles for everything could have evolved. Yet if it hadn't evolved this greatest script of live that no one can deviate from just came to be as perfect as it is.

In 3D geometry 3 distinct points that are not on the same line determine a unique plane that contains those 3 points. Then why do most tables have 4 legs and not 3 legs? Isn't it possible that by adding the 4th leg, the points of contact to the floor would no longer be in the same plane?

Is Time Travel Possible?
Not neseccarly now but in 100 - 1000 years do you think its possible?
I think it owuld be possible to go back in time but not forward in time.
If some one travels back in time what happens to the current time? it just stops or it keeps on going or what > do you think that if time travel were possible the govt would use it to prevent things and terrorist attacks or under no circumstance would it be allowed if it were possible?

So Im wondering
why do liveing things, more specifically humans need sleep?
I mean theres the obviouse the body gets tired or you need energy but what part of the body actually gets tired just your muscles that keep you up I mean the brain , heart, and eyes dont actually need sleep do they? It just seems wierd if you actually think about it more in depth I mean you would think it would be easier for a person to stay up for say 24 - 48 hours if they had a high sugar intake . What actually causes you to get tired just your muscles doing activities

Hello Canadians :)
I currently live in Brazil and I am a math professor teaching Linear Algebra and I also can teach chemistry. I speak many languages including French so that may be a benefit to teach in Canada. My salary is very low here. I get only about $1000 every month and as a Professor I believe I need more than that.
I was wondering what the average salary is there in Canada for Professors teaching in Universities or Highschools.
I'd also like to move to Canada to teach but how am I to go about this? Would I need a visa?.. That would cost I'm assuming around $3000 but can I get a loan?
I just would really appreciate if someone were to suggest the first step I should take in wanting to work in Canada as a Professor... I don't have knowledge on how to do this.
Please any suggestions? Thank You!
