» Do you think that technology improvement help kids to learn faster these days?
Only when used correctly. I have plenty of personal examples where technology has helped me to learn more effectively. My English teacher sets up a wiki so we always have a source for assignments and hand outs. My biology teacher uses the screen attached to the computer to show slides of chick embryos. My chem teacher posts audio recordings of all his lectures on the internet. I can also get information and answers to a question easily using the internet and email. If used incorrectly though, they can make things more difficult and slow down the process just by being too much of a hassle. It also depends on the teacher's teaching style....... - 2009-07-04

I have recently acquired a few old motorola VMEs with the following boards in them: MVME 167 MVME 167B MVME 167-34A MVME 177-005 MVME 332XX MVME 710B The vmes do not have operating systems on them, but I do have access to a terminal and a monitor. Is there a way for me to find out if each of the boards are working?I have thought some more about this, and I thought one possible way would be to take out all the processor boards and then just put one in at a time and see if the vme worked. However, I do not know how I could tell if it had worked as I have never used a vme box before. Does it have a bios like a PC? How would it show an error if there was a problem with one of the cards?

» How would an interest rate rise affect a monopolist?
Consider an industry which comprises a monopolist. The monopolist does not practice price-discrimination. The firm uses two variable factors of production, labour and capital and is a price-taker in both factor markets. Suppose the firm is producing its profit-maximising output and then there is an increase in the rate of interest. Explain carefully how this will impact on the monopoly price and output, the monopolist?s profit and the usage of both labour and capital.Main points that should be covered are all that are needed.

» New bird flu restrictions come into force
New bird flu restrictions come into force Some poultry will stay locked up over the winter October 15, 2006 - 12:52 PM Poultry kept within a one-kilometre radius of major Swiss lakes and rivers must stay indoors from Sunday as part of targeted preventive measures against avian flu. The restrictions, imposed by the economics ministry, are designed to prevent domestic flocks from coming into contact with migratory birds infected with the H5N1 virus. The measures will remain in place until April 30 next year and could be reinforced should the need arise. The outdoor ban applies to poultry holdings near around 20 lakes and rivers in low-lying areas. Thirty-two dead wild birds were found with the H5N1 virus in Switzerla...... - 2009-07-04

» How do I conclude this report on an Alto Saxophone?
Okay, I know I put this in hair, but I know this is the most commonly veiwed questions/answers. I wrote this report, how do I finish it? The Alto Saxophone is a woodwind instrument created by Adolphe Sax in 1841. Aldophe was a flute-player and clarinetist working in Paris in his fatherâ ™s instrument shop. He began developing this instrument with a priority to be similar to the clarinet, but would rise a pitch by a twelfth when overblown. He also wanted it to have a projection of a brass instrument with the mobility of a woodwind. The Alto Saxophone has roughly 21-23 keys. Given that, the written note range for an Alto is a Bb to an F. The note range can be extended with a proper use of overtones. All saxophones use the sam...... - 2009-07-04
» Have you ever intentionally avoided a restaurant on their "Kids/Family Night?"?
Yes, and if I'm with my husband who has no patience with loud children I ask for a different table if they are about to seat us near one or several. Nowadays a lot of parents seem to ignore or even encourage loud and inappropriate behavior and neither of us were raised that way, so it is hard to accept.If parents bothered to control their children, I would have no problem with it. As it is, little Jimmy usually is running around the restaurant screaming, and his mother is saying "oh, boys will be boys".

I have been experimenting using a piece of white tissue as a homemade diffuser to soften the light of direct flash from a flashgun.

» Loan to Officer from S-Corp
I read in a book somewhere (that I can't find again) that in a year when a corporation is very profitable and you expect to have the corporation need that money in later years, to have the S-Corp loan money to an officer (stockholder). My understanding is that the officer/stockholder would provide a promissory note to the S-Corp with terms and interest payable to the S-Corp for the loan. By providing a promissory note and paying interest it should prevent the IRS from re-classifying the loan as a distribution. This is supposed to defer the profits (and associated individual tax liability flow-through to stockholder on Sch. K) to later years when the loan is repaid (w/ interest) back to the S-Corp when the S-Corp needs the money. M...... - 2009-07-04

The SFC flow is northwesterly across a very strong baroclinic zone located across southern TX, with a strong southeasterly flow aloft at 850MB. This creates a good overrunning/isentropic upglide situation, and the NAM outputs roughly .50 to .75 inches of QPF across northern TX, and another bullseye around the KS/OK boarder (yes, missing Norman).

My favorite movie scene of all time is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OKcD_aLZ9... What's yours?The "Weather Prayer" scene from "Patton". It's a very moving juxtapostion of scenes of the horrors and tragedy of war, with a voice-over of Patton reading a prayer to God for good weather so that he can wage more war against the German Army. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vl7pKsB9R... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vuIJJJagg... Another, similar scene is the baptism of Michael Corleone's sister Connie's baby from "The Godfather". While Michael Corleone is standing Godfather to Connie's baby and professing his belief in God and renouncing Satan and all his works, Michael's henchmen are murdering the...... - 2009-07-04
» A bit sad, I think
I wasn't sure where to post this, but I have to lament a bit. I'm not actively trying to sell my old gear, but I got a card from an outfit looking to buy used equipment for resale. There was a toll-free phone, so I gave a call asking about one of my roll film systems. I have two Mamiya RB 67 bodys, 90mm, 127mm, 150mm soft, 180mm, prism finder, three 120 backs, Poloroid back, bellows hood. All of this is well used, in good working order. The following is from the email then sent me: Dear Pete, Thank you for choosing used camera buyer.com! We would like to make you an offer on your camera equipment. This offer is based on the condition and used market value of your equipment. Also keep in mind that we buy camera equipment to rese...... - 2009-07-04
» Survey of average Internet traffic of general websites
I have been thinking that we have overlooked a serious limitation in our craze to build websites without questioning that there will be enough web visitors go around for all websites on the Internet. My premise for saying this is that mathematically speaking there is simply NOT ENOUGH visitors (measured in hours/minutes spent browsing) on the Internet today that can justify all the expense of building websites (especially with the intention of making money). What I like to find out therefore is, any data/statistics that attempts to estimate the possible numbers of hours web users spend on the Internet. Then divide the number with the number of websites (estimated) that compete for this audience. Another possible indicator is ...... - 2009-07-04
» Standings after game three(R)
We can update this every week. Here it is after every team has played 3 games. 1 Inter 2 9 2 Milan 3 7 3 Juventus 3 7 4 Bologna 3 7 5 Empoli 3 6 6 Piacenza 3 6 7 Modena 3 6 8 Parma 3 5 9 Lazio 3 4 10 Udinese 3 4 11 Chievo Verona 2 3 12 Brescia 3 3 13 Roma 3 3 14 Perugia 3 3 15 Reggina 3 1 16 Atalanta 3 1 17 Como 3 1 18 Torino 3 0 Hence, if the season ended today, Torino would be at the bottom and INTER would win the scudetto. The relegation teams would be Torino, Como, Atlanta, and Reggina, and the CL teams would be Inter, Juve, Milan, and Bologna if it's still 4, but I think they switched it to three because of our preformances last season.

Right i want to get into some music producing using keyboards midi players etc i was just wondering what sort of stuf and software i could get within a resonable price range ? i play drums anyway and want a software that i can record my drums aswel as help with the music producing? thankyou xOkay, If you want to start off with music production the main thing you need to have is a good sound card. Get the Audiophile 2496 (made by m-audio) because it is cheap and has an adapter for a midi input and output. If you want to drum and record I prefer you getting electric drums because the sound come out way cleaner.The sound card is about $100 and the electric drums are about $200 to $700 so make sure music production is really what you want to do...... - 2009-07-04

anthropological approach to ceramics. i am preparing a paper on this. i need any paper that has to do with the aboveHello Narnia-ga, Nice to see you again, and thanks for an interesting question. Scientists who study bygone cultures and civilizations love ceramic materials because they are so wonderfully durable. Objects made of wood, leather, reeds, papyrus or other animal/vegetable matter tend to deteriorate over time, but pottery/ceramics have a staying power that makes them wonderful objects of anthropological and archaeological study. There is a good deal of information on this topic strewn about the web.

» Language Learning
What is the best language learning software? I want to learn some Arabic and French before traveling overseas.I'm assuming you mean any kind of course when you say "software," not just computed based ones. For French I recommend Pimsleur's audio courses. If you complete all three of the courses you should be at level 1 on the ILR scale of language proficiency or "able to survive and cope a foreign country." The Pimsleur courses are very expensive but you may be able to get them at the library. For further study, Rosetta Stone is also good, and also very expensive. Pimsleur only has one course for Arabic so if you want to go more in depth than that you can use the Foreign Service Institutes's intensive courses. If you use Pi...... - 2009-07-04

I was hired by Sarah's sister Katherine (you've seen my posts for her engagement pics) to do her wedding. Sarah gets engaged and hires her own photographer. Mom compares my photos of Katherine to Sarah's 8 engagement pictures and 10 bridal pictures (that's all she could find that she was even remotely pleased with).

» Is RTV now tainted given the appalling treatment meted out to certain people?
Such as John SeargantIt has a better record than reality radio, don't you think? John Seargant quit because he felt embarassed at knocking out a quality dancer, not because he was being bullied. He simply didn't want to go on any longer. I'm sure that if he wants to dance in future, then he will be given air time to do it. The only other reality show I watch is the apprentice and that pretty much exposes people for what they are. === People voted for John because he was a lovable gent. In this instance, the media will have been reminded that there is still an audience for nice old men, not just purile idiots like Ross and Brand.

Kids' Farm Moves Birds as Precaution Maneuver Is Part of Plan to Reduce Threat of Avian Flu By Karlyn Barker Washington Post Staff Writer Thursday, June 29, 2006; B03 The National Zoo has temporarily moved the chickens and ducks at its Kids' Farm exhibit to reduce the potential risk of visitors and other animals contracting bird flu, zoo officials said yesterday. In what was described as a precautionary measure, 18 ducks and 27 chickens were moved to the zoo's Conservation and Research Center in Front Royal, Va., last week to guard against infections caused by influenza viruses that can occur naturally in birds. "We just wanted to be extremely careful to protect both our visitors and the animals," said the zoo's director, Joh...... - 2009-07-04
