I never went to any. I don't think I missed that much. It always seemed like it was just another way for the jocks to show off.No. I never went to my prom. Couldn't wait to get away from the idiots at school and I didn't want to spend another evening with them. I went to a gig instead, far more fun and I managed to get backstage.I disagree with the answers here that say don't go. I would encourage you to go and to have fun. You will never have another prom so think about that. I have no regrets about attending my prom - it was fun to dress up & go out for one evening. Good luck on you decision!

Qinghai H5N1 in Germany Similar to Last Season Recombinomics Commentary June 26, 2007 On Monday of yesterday the signs multiplied themselves that the virus is in Nuremberg the same as with the outbreak in the winter 2005/2006 or at least this very similarly. The above translation suggests that the H5N1 confirmed (http://www.recombinomics.com/News/06230702/H5N1_Germany_WB.html) in Nuremberg is similar to H5N1 detected in Germany in the 2005/2006. If true, this would support an endemic reservoir in Germany. Last season the H5N1 in Germany fell into three sub-clades (http://www.recombinomics.com/News/06240702/H5N1_Germany_Failure.html). Clade 2.2.2.1 was largely confined to northern Germany and was the largest outbreak in Western Europe. ...... - 2010-03-19

Can anyone please tell me how to get the effect where water in small waterfalls/streams appears asa sort of mist?i can't find any pictures as an example so hopefully someone will know what i meanuse a slow shutter speedYup, you need a slow shutter speed. During the day you might not be able to slow it down enough, so that's where a 2 or even a 4-stop neutral density filter will come in handy. You'll also need a tripod, or something flat that you can set the camera on for best results. If you can hand hold extremely well and even better if you have a stabilized lens, you can occasionally pull off good handheld shots of stuff like this too.Here's a recent example.

» Describe a business cycle?
Macro related. A business cycle typically looks like a diagonal swirly line. The swirly line represents the alternating pattern of economic expansion and contraction because businesses are so greatly affected by the changes in output. Recessions, or contractions, are the periods of time during which output falls - that is, after a peak and before the next trough. Recoveries, or expansions, are the periods of time during which output increases - that is, after a trough and before the next peak. The best theory on the business cycle is presented by the Austrian School of Economics. They explain that business cycles are not caused by the free market. It is actually caused by government intervention. Entrepreneurs are the exper...... - 2010-03-19

This can be caused by trauma to the tail or retained sheds. Without treatment, it will gradually eat up the tail and get to the body, at which point it will kill the animal. Your Beardie needs to see a vet ASAP, they may be able to save the tail and the animal. In extreme cases, they may have to amputate part of the tail to save the Beardie's life, so get it early before it has worked up far and there is more of a chance both of losing part of the tail and losing more of the tail.It could eit...... - 2010-03-19

» Tidy HTML problems
In FP 2006, I can't find a way to see what Tidy HTML has done. Also, after it runs, a small box comes up with Tidy HTML comments, but it cuts them off at the width of the box, which is quite narrow, so you really can't see much of them so it is close to useless. Perhaps this can be fixed in the Pro version, if it ever comes out.Grab the right hand edge of the box with your mouse and resize it, making the box wider. Unfortunately it doesn't remember the setting, so you have to do it every time you use Tidy.Making the box wider is of little help, since all lines are still cut off as if it were a narrow box (although you do see a little more). Widening it produces a bunch of white space on the right side, but you still have most of the expl...... - 2010-03-19
» Is the porsche 911 turbo water cooled?
All Porsches 911s were air cooled through 1998. There was no Turbo model built in 1998. The 1997 Turbo and Turbo S 911 models were air cooled. At 424 HP, the 1997 Turbo S was the most powerful air cooled Porsche ever built. The later "air cooled" 911s were actually air and oil cooled: they had a huge oil capacity, with a large oil cooler helping to dissipate heat. The 993 body 911s, the last air cooled ones, were built from 1995 through 1998. These cars had an oil capacity (in a separate tank) of 12 quarts. Porsche introduced the 996 body style in 1999. These had the first water (and oil) cooled 911 engines. The 996 body was replaced by the 997 body in 2005; however, both body styles were built that year. The new 997 bodies w...... - 2010-03-19

» Do you think regional pilot is a not-respected job?
I just want to hear your opinion. The salary of regional pilot is around 20000 per year but increases as you get seniority. Do you think it's a great job?Professional pilots by definition are people who are in the business because they love flying more than anything else in the world. So they really don't care whether they are respected or not, and they don't mind making pit-licking money for a few years. And it is one of the main ways to work up to the major airlines. So if you care about respect, go to medical school or become an Army Drill Sergeant. If flying gets your goody like nothing else, become a pilot.The only reason one should become an airline pilot (in which a regional airline would be the first st...... - 2010-03-19
» Path length - Follow-up for Manuka
This is not so much a question as it is a comment on a previous discussion. If that's inappropriate, don't post it! A few weeks ago, I asked Google Answers how to calculate the length of a curve on a sphere of radius r, where the curve began at the equator and ended at the north pole, with each point on the path having its north latitude and its west longitude equal. Manuka responded that the answer would be r. sqrt(2). E(1/2), where E represents a complete elliptic integral of the second kind. A decimal approximation of Manuka's solution matched the decimal approximation I had earlier computed empirically. For what it is worth, I found in my CRC Handbook a discussion of elliptic integrals that allowed me to express this ...... - 2010-03-19

It usually has a light glaze like an apricot glaze, and is served cold in wedges, like any other individual patisserie item.

The above translation suggests that the H5N1 confirmed (http://www.recombinomics.com/News/06230702/H5N1_Germany_WB.html) in Nuremberg is similar to H5N1 detected in Germany in the 2005/2006. If true, this would support an endemic reservoir in Germany. Last season the H5N1 in Germany fell into three sub-clades (http://www.recombinomics.com/News/06240702/H5N1_Germany_Failure.html).

During the day you might not be able to slow it down enough, so that's where a 2 or even a 4-stop neutral density filter will come in handy. You'll also need a tripod, or something flat that you can set the camera on for best results. If you can hand hold extremely well and even better if you have a stabilized lens, you can occasionally pull off good handheld shots of stuff like this too.Here's a recent example. My D80, ISO 100, 16mm and f/11 on my Tokina 11-16 lens, and a 1 second expo...... - 2010-03-19
» Describe a business cycle?
Macro related. A business cycle typically looks like a diagonal swirly line. The swirly line represents the alternating pattern of economic expansion and contraction because businesses are so greatly affected by the changes in output. Recessions, or contractions, are the periods of time during which output falls - that is, after a peak and before the next trough. Recoveries, or expansions, are the periods of time during which output increases - that is, after a trough and before the next peak. The best theory on the business cycle is presented by the Austrian School of Economics. They explain that business cycles are not caused by the free market. It is actually caused by government intervention. Entrepreneurs are the exper...... - 2010-03-19

Suppose this thing converges and the value it converges to is x. Then, x^2 - k = x So, x^2 - x - k = 0. Solving, this has two solutions and one is negative. It can't be the negative one because everything is always positive by our assumption, so if x exists it must equal the positive root, i.e. x = (1+√(4k+1))/2.

i dont know much about them but only advice i can give is. look on the internet for a local reptile store and get a phone number and ring it up and ask there advicei wish i could say more but seriously, get a bet asapThat sounds like tail rot. This can be caused by trauma to the tail or retained sheds. Without treatment, it will gradually eat up the tail and get to the body, at which point it will kill the animal. Your Beardie needs to see a vet ASAP, they may be able to save the tail and the animal. In extreme cases, they may have to amputate part of the tail to save the Beardie's life, so get it early before it has worked up far and there is more of a chance both of losing part of the tail and losing more of the tail.It could eit...... - 2010-03-19

» Tidy HTML problems
In FP 2006, I can't find a way to see what Tidy HTML has done. Also, after it runs, a small box comes up with Tidy HTML comments, but it cuts them off at the width of the box, which is quite narrow, so you really can't see much of them so it is close to useless. Perhaps this can be fixed in the Pro version, if it ever comes out.Grab the right hand edge of the box with your mouse and resize it, making the box wider. Unfortunately it doesn't remember the setting, so you have to do it every time you use Tidy.Making the box wider is of little help, since all lines are still cut off as if it were a narrow box (although you do see a little more). Widening it produces a bunch of white space on the right side, but you still have most of the expl...... - 2010-03-19
» Is the porsche 911 turbo water cooled?
All Porsches 911s were air cooled through 1998. There was no Turbo model built in 1998. The 1997 Turbo and Turbo S 911 models were air cooled. At 424 HP, the 1997 Turbo S was the most powerful air cooled Porsche ever built. The later "air cooled" 911s were actually air and oil cooled: they had a huge oil capacity, with a large oil cooler helping to dissipate heat. The 993 body 911s, the last air cooled ones, were built from 1995 through 1998. These cars had an oil capacity (in a separate tank) of 12 quarts. Porsche introduced the 996 body style in 1999. These had the first water (and oil) cooled 911 engines. The 996 body was replaced by the 997 body in 2005; however, both body styles were built that year. The new 997 bodies w...... - 2010-03-19

» Path length - Follow-up for Manuka
This is not so much a question as it is a comment on a previous discussion. If that's inappropriate, don't post it! A few weeks ago, I asked Google Answers how to calculate the length of a curve on a sphere of radius r, where the curve began at the equator and ended at the north pole, with each point on the path having its north latitude and its west longitude equal. Manuka responded that the answer would be r. sqrt(2). E(1/2), where E represents a complete elliptic integral of the second kind. A decimal approximation of Manuka's solution matched the decimal approximation I had earlier computed empirically. For what it is worth, I found in my CRC Handbook a discussion of elliptic integrals that allowed me to express this ...... - 2010-03-19
