"Government is competent when all who compose it work as trustees for the whole people. It can make constant progress when it keeps abreast of all the facts. It can obtain justified support and legitimate criticism when the people receive true information of all that government does."
Anther quote from 1933. Is it really a different time and not in context to today?
*Yoru quote is timeless...
Instead of being a servant of the people, government is now master of the people.
How does that role change? How does your dog, become your master?
Reply:It SHOULD have contemporary context, but just watch the rightwing (you know, the "Little Government" party) come out to deride this quote, calling it socialist, marxist, communist, whatever they can to promote fear and division in the US.

Some people can steal jewellry, but is it possible for someone to steal anther guy's grillz?
I think not, it's like stealing and using another person's toothbrush
Some people can steal jewellry, but is it possible for someone to steal anther guy's grillz?
I actually knew someone who had their grill stolen from them. o yes I do believe it is possible. The friend told me it was possible because who ever stole it could get it melted down and make their own grill from it.
Now why would you take someone elses grill IDK people are just weird
Do people still wear grills anyway? I thought they were played out, but thats just me
Reply:i don't know....unless they really really really wanted them, then maybe they would steal them but yeah it would be like stealing and using another persons toothbrush. but it would be possible i suppose.

This year i have to pay in taxs since my ex wife screwed me i got one extension can i get anther one?
Only one allowed now.
No, you can not take it from the next year.
Reply:There is no extension to pay your taxes. If you owe, interest is accruing even though you haven't filed.
Your extension is for six months, there are no second extensions like there used to be.
So you have until October 15 to file your taxes and deal with the tax bill.
Reply:The extension gives you more time to file your return. The taxes were still due April 17, 2007. You have been accumulating interest and penalties since that date. Another extension would not change that. If you don't pay before your next tax return, they WILL keep any return to put toward what you owe.
Reply:Sounds painful David.
Reply:greater clarity ...
your final tax deposit for 2006 was due on Monday, April 16th 2007. interest and late payment penalties began to attach on the 17th.
an extension is only an extension of time to file the paperwork, not an extension of time to pay the tax. extensions are now for 6 months, so your return is due Monday, Oct. 15th in the mail.
the IRS might make a deal on paying your overdue tax in installments ... and you have to ask for this. It does not have to be granted. You are responsible for managing your finances well enough to make your payments.
Afaik, IRS will not allow you to pay nothing more until 2008 [when you next return is due]. That just does not happen. Quarterly payments are the longest I've ever heard of, and interest and penalties apply and will be collected.
the only 'out' I know of is to file bankruptcy. And the bk courts have orders under the law to pay your tax bills first and all your other creditors afterward.

Reply:Well your extension for 2006 ran out on 8/15 so you should have gotten the extra extension already but you can request an additional extension. No they will not take it out of your return for 2007, because one you owe it now and two why would you assume you would get a refund for 2007, if you are getting a refund you are having to much in taxes wihheld and should adjust your exemptions on your W4. You will owe interest on the money that you have due the IRS from 4/15 until you pay it.
Reply:Conflicting answers above. You get one extension of time to file to 10/15/07. Make sure you mail your return by then or you will be assessed late filing penalties. You will owe late payment penalty and interest from 04/15/07 for any balance due. Because it takes some time to go through the billing process, it will be spring 2008 before crunch time arrives. IF you have a refund on your 2007 return, it will be offset to any balance due for 2006. It would be better for you to change your W-4 and reduce your refund and send the money now. This is because you are charged late payment penalty and interest until IRS gets your money. Any 2007 refund would be credited as of 04/15/08 unless you file your return real early.
Reply:Yes, have your accountant do it for you.

Is there anther way to lose stomach fat besides doing crunches?
Do Sit Ups. ( p.s they arent crunches :)Lie on the floor, feet on the floor, knees up and hands behind your head or crossed on your chest. Sit all the way up, lifting your lower back off the floor along with your shoulder blades. Lower yourself down. Repeat. Once this becomes relatively easy for you (i.e. you can do a quite a bit with ease) start adding more challenges. Find an incline bench or do these on an exercise ball. Once you "graduate" from that, do weighted sit ups. Hold a weight on your chest while you do these. As these become easier, hold heavier and heavier weights. You might also try lifting your feet off the ground while doing the sit ups or alternating the leg in the air, like pretending to pedal while sitting up. If your hands are behind your head, bring your left knee up to touch your right elbow and then your right knee to the left elbow.
Do Leg Lifts. Lie on the floor, legs straight out, hands at your sides. Lift your legs straight up (not bending your knees at all) until they're at a ninety degree angle (or close). Lower your legs and repeat without letting your legs touch the floor. For more challenge there is equipment at most gyms that will allow you to raise yourself up using your arms as support and dangle your legs. You can perform leg lifts there too. If you're using this piece of equipment, you can make it easier by just raising your knees to your chest. It's more difficult to raise your legs to a horizontal position with your legs straight. This helps firm up the lower abdomen. If you're truly a monster, try doing leg lifts with a medicine ball hanging from your feet. Or hang from a pull up bar and raise your legs in front of you all the way up to the bar. Still too easy?...
Do Jackknife Sit Ups. Lie down flat on the floor. Place your hands on the ground to your sides for balance; you can pick them up as you get used to the movement. Simultaneously raise your knees and torso so that your knees and face meet on an imaginary line extending from your pelvis to the ceiling. You should be able to kiss your knees at the top of the motion. Your legs will naturally fold bringing your feet towards your hips, much like a jackknife. Lie back down (i.e. "spread out") and repeat. Place a weight between your feet when you think you can handle it. What's that? More?
Do V-ups. Lie on the floor, legs straight out, hands on the floor but this time extended out over your head. Simultaneously raise legs and torso. Don't bend your knees! What kind of V would it be if you bend your knees? Reach with your hands toward the raised feet. Touch your feet if possible (might require some flexibility). Relax, return to starting position and repeat. Add weight between feet to match your taste.
Static Hold and Side Statics. Put your body into the push-up position but with your elbows on the floor, and you whole body flat. This position is known as the static hold position and it trains your core (including your abs) to hold the body in place which is the real purpose of your abs. Hold this position for as long as possible, but you should be aiming to start off with at least 45 seconds, while seasoned ab workers known to achieve over 20 minute static holds. To perform the side static hold roll onto one side of your body and lift into the same position as before, but this time only one arm will be on the ground with the other arm pointed straight up the air and your non-weight bearing leg resting on your bottom leg. Once again, hold this for as long as possible
Train Your Oblique Muscles. It's not as important to work on your oblique muscles at first, but eventually you'll want to start working these too. These are the muscles to either side of your stomach. There are multiple ways to do this and anything that includes twisting your torso against a resistance counts. There are twisting machines at gyms, you can twist while you do sit-ups, you can do side bends, you can twist side to side with a medicine ball in hand, etc. Be aware though, that many beginners tend to have weak obliques compared to their abs (it simply isn't used as much in daily life) so go easy on the sides at first.
Other stuff Since it is, literally, the center of your body there are many other tricks you can use to train your abs, and some of the other movements will more or less involve your abs. Including every abdominal exercise in existence would make this article painfully long and new methods are being developed constantly. Now that you've made up your mind about a washboard mid-section, get creative! Find new ways to crunch, bend and twist in your daily life. Some possibilities include:
Use a stability ball. Do your crunches on the ball to introduce instability to your workout, which will improve your balance too. There are also lots of core exercises that can be done with a stability ball.You can also use a small bubble use for physical therapy.
Duck and twist during your daily routine. Reach with your left hand to things on your right and vice versa. If you feel like turning around to face something, see if you can do it with keeping your hips in place and twisting at the waist (warning: awkward when talking to other people, use only against inanimate objects). While walking or standing, pretend that something is coming toward you and you have to duck to get out of the way. Do this as often as you are comfortable or at times when it won't look weird. You can bend forward from the hips or, if you're really into it, bend at the knees too and really "sink" out of the way.
Weights. The more muscle your body has, the more calories your body burns, even at rest. Many people are afraid of getting huge due to weight lifting. This is meaningless. You will NOT gain a lot of mass if you're not taking in a lot of calories as well. Also keep in mind that most of the huge people you see on TV or in print achieve that state by going on high protein and high carb diets. They increase their calorie intake specifically to bulk up. So the fear of bulking up should NOT be a reason to not lift weights. As a rule of thumb, the larger the muscle the more energy it will burn to sustain itself. Therefore the most effective muscle groups to work for fat loss are large muscle groups: thighs and hamstrings, the back, and the chest. You can also lift your body weight without going to a gym, through push ups, sit ups, chin ups, etc.
Do Cardio. No matter how muscular your abs are that six pack isn't going to show if you cover it up with a layer of fat. Running, biking, swimming, stair climbing, jumping rope, tennis, volleyball, dancing, squash or any other activity that gets you moving and keeps you moving is a great way to burn fat. However, a cardio workout should be performed for at least 20 MINUTES to burn fat. Prior to this your body will simply run on its stored energy, which results in minimal fat loss. Cardio should always be done after your weight lifting workout. While lifting weights, you use stored, (carb) energy, thus, by doing cardio after weight training your body will have less stored energy to use and go straight into the fat storage for its energy use. The overall best way to shed fat fast is to do cardio(30 min minimum) right when you wake up. Your body will search for energy to use, when it finds nothing in your stomach, it will go directly to your fat storage for energy and the fat will burn up so fast!
Diet Tips
Keep Metabolism Steady. Eating one small meal (such as a potato, a salad, etc.) every three hours that you are awake will not speed up your metabolism, rather, it will keep it going. Your metabolism goes and slows with your food intake and eating something small every three hours will keep that metabolism burning calories and will help you lose weight.
Eat Smaller Dinners. Cut down on the size of your dinner. If you're hungry, snack on fruits or other healthy, low calorie snacks. Large dinners tend to hurt a fat loss process because most people aren't very active after dinner. This is the basis for advice along the lines of "don't eat anything within X hours before going to bed". The claim that your entire dinner is stored as fat isn't entirely true (the process is more complicated than that) but the fact you don't move after dinner is enough to hurt your cause. You can offset this by eating a larger lunch or snacking healthily before dinner. Fresh fruits or vegetables are excellent choices for curbing appetite not to mention other health benefits. A handful of nuts might do the same. Drink a large glass of water before sitting at the table.
Eat More Fiber. Most people don't get enough fiber. The recommended amount is actually not that much if you eat a healthy diet. "Fiber foods" include whole grains, fruits and vegetables, and nuts and seeds. Other options are fiber supplements.
Eat Breakfast. Many people skip breakfast because they don't have time for it. Keep this in mind: You don't have time to skip breakfast, it's simply too valuable to skip. The fact that skipping breakfast messes up your concentration and other mental functions is beyond the scope of this article. The harm of skipping breakfast from a weight loss perspective is it makes you eat a huge lunch since your body hasn't had anything in the past 12 (or more) hours. When you eat a huge lunch you get that after meal drowsiness so now you're both unproductive and inactive. Cereals don't take much time to prepare and consume, and most of them are very healthy nowadays. If you are extremely pressed for time, consider grabbing a box of breakfast bars or a smoothie and throwing one in your bag when you leave for work or school. Some breakfast bars out there are also excellent sources of fiber.
Eat Smaller Meals More Frequently. This helps raise your metabolism too. It's not easy to do though since it's a relatively big change to most people's routines. But it doesn't have to be a full blown meal, simply eat often but less. A jar of nuts in the office will do just fine, grab a handful when you feel like it. Most fruits can last for a couple days without refrigeration, and if you have a refrigerator at the office, make use of it.
Drink More Water Everyday. Many places suggest 8 cups (2 L) of water a day. It sounds like an absurd amount of water, but actually, you can drink tea without sugar to make up some of the quota. In fact tea, especially green tea, rev up your "metabolism" (actually cause a temporary increase in calories burned).
For fat loss purposes, it is important to remind yourself that thirst is a much weaker stimuli than hunger. If you consistantly feel hungry after meals, don't immediately think that you need to eat more. You may simply be thirsty!
Needless to say there are many benefits of water. 69% of your body is made of it!
We can exist without food for months, but without water we can only survive for a few days. Your body is made up mostly of water, which:
Is essential for digestion, nutrient absorption and elimination
Aids circulation
Helps control the body's temperature
Lubricates and cushions joints
Keeps the skin healthy
Helps remove toxins from your body
Every day you lose water from the body through urine and sweat, and this fluid needs to be replenished. However, your body has come equipped with a mechanism that tells you when you need to replenish your supply--it’s called thirst!
Drinking water is good for you. It will not make you fat, if you drink 8 glasses a day or even 15. Just dont drink too much more than that.

Reply:One exercise that targets the stubborn stomach area is called The Bicycle. To do The Bicycle, simply lay on the floor pressing your lower back to the ground. Your hands are beside your head. Bring your knees to an approximate 45-degree angle and slowly go through the motion of pedaling a bicycle. Your left elbow will touch your right knee and then your right elbow will touch your left knee.

Reply:yup,if you want to get a mad flat and toned tummy .get someone to drop a medicine ball from about one and a half to two feet onto youre stomach ,not to lo and not on youre ribs or chest .do this at least ten times a day after youre crunches.dont try and hold youre breath when it hits ,blow out all youre air .
Reply:The only way to lose stomach fat is to lose fat by burning more calories than you eat. This is most easily accomplished by exercising (and burning calories as well as increasing muscle mass which causes the body to work harder to maintain it and burn more calories at rest) and watching what you eat. If you switch to a low carb diet (like Atkins) you attain a metabolic advantage called "ketosis" whereby your body burns fat for energy because there isn't enough glucose (sugar) for you body to burn. Read about it and give it a try (you'll look and feel better). If you don't like the results, you can try some other way, but I'm confident you'll like the results.
What's nice about this way of eating is that you don't have to sign up for anything, or join any group. Just learn what you can get away with eating (steak, chicken, fish, eggs, nuts, salads, mayonnaise, green veggies, etc) do it.
Reply:Use citrus fruits, i.e, orange, lemon, etc
Daily one orange or pure orange juice, will dissolve the unsatturatted fats of your body.
Since lemon or lime will be difficult try oranges they worked for me.
Reply:crunches dont burn fat much
cardio (running cycling swimming) burns fat
Reply:Crunches build muscle, they don't burn fat. Do cardio to burn fat, but continue to do crunches and you'll have a toned tummy when the fat is gone.

The overall best way to shed fat fast is to do cardio(30 min minimum) right when you wake up. Your body will search for energy to use, when it finds nothing in your stomach, it will go directly to your fat storage for energy and the fat will burn up so fast!
Diet Tips
Keep Metabolism Steady. Eating one small meal (such as a potato, a salad, etc.) every three hours that you are awake will not speed up your metabolism, rather, it will keep it going. Your metabolism goes and slows with your food intake and eating something small every three hours will keep that metabolism burning calories and will help you lose weight.
Eat Smaller Dinners. Cut down on the size of your dinner. If you're hungry, snack on fruits or other healthy, low calorie snacks. Large dinners tend to hurt a fat loss process because most people aren't very active after dinner. This is the basis for advice along the lines of "don't eat anything within X hours before going to bed". The claim that your entire dinner is stored as fat isn't entirely true (the process is more complicated than that) but the fact you don't move after dinner is enough to hurt your cause. You can offset this by eating a larger lunch or snacking healthily before dinner. Fresh fruits or vegetables are excellent choices for curbing appetite not to mention other health benefits. A handful of nuts might do the same. Drink a large glass of water before sitting at the table.
Eat More Fiber. Most people don't get enough fiber. The recommended amount is actually not that much if you eat a healthy diet. "Fiber foods" include whole grains, fruits and vegetables, and nuts and seeds. Other options are fiber supplements.
Eat Breakfast. Many people skip breakfast because they don't have time for it. Keep this in mind: You don't have time to skip breakfast, it's simply too valuable to skip. The fact that skipping breakfast messes up your concentration and other mental functions is beyond the scope of this article. The harm of skipping breakfast from a weight loss perspective is it makes you eat a huge lunch since your body hasn't had anything in the past 12 (or more) hours. When you eat a huge lunch you get that after meal drowsiness so now you're both unproductive and inactive. Cereals don't take much time to prepare and consume, and most of them are very healthy nowadays. If you are extremely pressed for time, consider grabbing a box of breakfast bars or a smoothie and throwing one in your bag when you leave for work or school. Some breakfast bars out there are also excellent sources of fiber.
Eat Smaller Meals More Frequently. This helps raise your metabolism too. It's not easy to do though since it's a relatively big change to most people's routines. But it doesn't have to be a full blown meal, simply eat often but less. A jar of nuts in the office will do just fine, grab a handful when you feel like it. Most fruits can last for a couple days without refrigeration, and if you have a refrigerator at the office, make use of it.
Drink More Water Everyday. Many places suggest 8 cups (2 L) of water a day. It sounds like an absurd amount of water, but actually, you can drink tea without sugar to make up some of the quota. In fact tea, especially green tea, rev up your "metabolism" (actually cause a temporary increase in calories burned).
For fat loss purposes, it is important to remind yourself that thirst is a much weaker stimuli than hunger. If you consistantly feel hungry after meals, don't immediately think that you need to eat more. You may simply be thirsty!
Needless to say there are many benefits of water. 69% of your body is made of it!
We can exist without food for months, but without water we can only survive for a few days. Your body is made up mostly of water, which:
Is essential for digestion, nutrient absorption and elimination
Aids circulation
Helps control the body's temperature
Lubricates and cushions joints
Keeps the skin healthy
Helps remove toxins from your body
Every day you lose water from the body through urine and sweat, and this fluid needs to be replenished. However, your body has come equipped with a mechanism that tells you when you need to replenish your supply--it’s called thirst!
Drinking water is good for you. It will not make you fat, if you drink 8 glasses a day or even 15. Just dont drink too much more than that.
Is there anther way to lose stomach fat besides doing crunches?
Since I started to work out I was looking for a good weight loss product. I was on a diet but I felt that I needed a little "help" so I decided to try this great product and I had fantastic results. You can check their website at
http://www.goodlwizard.info , they give you a free trial and you only pay 5.49$ shipping and handling.

Reply:One exercise that targets the stubborn stomach area is called The Bicycle. To do The Bicycle, simply lay on the floor pressing your lower back to the ground. Your hands are beside your head. Bring your knees to an approximate 45-degree angle and slowly go through the motion of pedaling a bicycle. Your left elbow will touch your right knee and then your right elbow will touch your left knee.

Reply:yup,if you want to get a mad flat and toned tummy .get someone to drop a medicine ball from about one and a half to two feet onto youre stomach ,not to lo and not on youre ribs or chest .do this at least ten times a day after youre crunches.dont try and hold youre breath when it hits ,blow out all youre air .
Reply:The only way to lose stomach fat is to lose fat by burning more calories than you eat. This is most easily accomplished by exercising (and burning calories as well as increasing muscle mass which causes the body to work harder to maintain it and burn more calories at rest) and watching what you eat. If you switch to a low carb diet (like Atkins) you attain a metabolic advantage called "ketosis" whereby your body burns fat for energy because there isn't enough glucose (sugar) for you body to burn. Read about it and give it a try (you'll look and feel better). If you don't like the results, you can try some other way, but I'm confident you'll like the results.
What's nice about this way of eating is that you don't have to sign up for anything, or join any group. Just learn what you can get away with eating (steak, chicken, fish, eggs, nuts, salads, mayonnaise, green veggies, etc) do it.
Reply:Use citrus fruits, i.e, orange, lemon, etc
Daily one orange or pure orange juice, will dissolve the unsatturatted fats of your body.
Since lemon or lime will be difficult try oranges they worked for me.
Reply:crunches dont burn fat much
cardio (running cycling swimming) burns fat
Reply:Crunches build muscle, they don't burn fat. Do cardio to burn fat, but continue to do crunches and you'll have a toned tummy when the fat is gone.

HOw do I convince the Dr to give me anther sonogram?
I am 21 weeks along. I had my standerd ultrasound at 19 weeks and they could not tell the sex of the baby. When I went back to the Dr and asked for a ultrasound to tell the sex he said I could not have any more.
I really want to know the sex anyone else had this happen? How do I get anther one?
HOw do I convince the Dr to give me anther sonogram?
You'll have another at 28 weeks most likely...then again at 32 weeks...other than that they usually dont like to give them to you. But if you tell him your having pain and the baby hasnt moved and your really worried he may give you another one soon. But you have to keep in mind that they still not be able to tell the sex and even if they think they know theres no way to be 100% until the baby is born. When i went at 20 weeks they could only tell me 80% that they thought it was a girl. So if your really wanting to know now Id go with the pain story but if you can wait you'll probably have another in 6-7 weeks.
Reply:say you had slight spotting and sharp pains...everytime this happened to me they rushed me in to have an ultrasound!!
Reply:you will have to pay to go private, these can cost £50-£150 depending on if your want 2D, 3D, 4D and whether you want pictures or dvds
Reply:An ultrasound is a very expensive medical test, which someone has to pay for -- either the individual or her insurance.
Insurance companies do not want to dish out money for unnecessary tests. And it causes everyone's premiums to go up. Personally, I don't want to pay more for my insurance just so people can find out what they are having.
Also, if they can't see the genitals again, then it's just wasted. AND an ultrasound isn't even always accurate.
Your doctor doesn't want to get into trouble with the insurance company for fraud, for ordering a test that is not medically necessary.
The best way to get another sonogram is to pay for it yourself. If you want a test that is not medically necessary, that's how it should be.
Reply:Unless the doctor has a reason to be concerned about the baby, most likely they will not schedule another sonogram.
I am in a similar predicament as you. They think it is a girl, but I wasn't too sure from the picture. So I'm going in to get a 3D/4D ultrasound this month to find out the sex (which can be done better with a 3D. For another 2D ultrasound it is 75 dollars. But for what I'm doing it is $185, but it's worth it to us. We are excited to get a video of our sweet baby and to see what she might look like, plus confirm that it really is a girl and we can decorate our nursery the way we want.
Reply:Have a surprise!
Reply:You unless its medically necessary. Sorry, you just going to have to be surprised.
Reply:Id say i was having really sharp pains in my side when you go back in and tell them there really cramp like and you havent felt the baby move in a few days...its a huge lie but it should get you another sonagram...then they will be able to tell what your having goodluck to you! or you could just askf or a 4d one...they cost 150 dollers
Reply:You might not be able to have another ultrasound due to your insurance company. They might only pay for one ultrasound. I had one ultrasound and wanted another, but was told I would have to pay for it out of pocket. Call your insurance company, or try to get your doctor to "fudge" the reason why you need an ultrasound. Some companies will do it if it's medically necessary.
Reply:You can pay for one, you can call places that do them and ask to pay cash, go to your doctor and tell him you want to have another ultrasouind done in your favor, they cannot deny you one if you ask. I have asked bluntly with my second child and never got denied.
You have the right to know what you are carrying but some doctors dont like to make appointments for another ultrasound unless the patient is paying cash.
Or you can act like you want a 3d ultrasound get a precription for one go to your local hospital and just use your insurance, works everytime LOL
Reply:I had that situation. I agreed to pay for it privately (insurance would not). It was about $110 (but that was 10 years ago).
They will pay for 3 that are medically justifiable. Finding out the sex of the baby is not. The doctor wants to save the 3 he has for complications that may arise toward the end.

If my gecko has been alone for six years,is it possible to put in anther gecko with her without her killing it
My gecko has been in her tank by her self for six years. And I wanted to get her a buddy.
If my gecko has been alone for six years,is it possible to put in anther gecko with her without her killing it
lol! I don't know what's happened to your grip in the past few years, but your ability to put a gecko in a cage without killing it has nothing to do with any other geckos in the cage!
Oh, wait, you said "her" killing it.
Dunno. Find out.
Reply:It's not a good idea. Reptiles are not like cats or dogs. Most are solitary in the wild, and do not need or want companions. Some will tolerate each other, but not all.
If you want a second gecko, it's best to get a second setup as well.
Reply:It will be dangers. They will what to fight. What you should do is get a gecko the same age or the same size. Put a cage splitter in the cage and put one on each side and slowly put them to gether.After they get to know each other.
Reply:No, they'll both fight to the death, the male with stress out the female to much trying to mate and she'll die, one will eat the other, or they will fight for the best hide,basking place, food dish, crickets ect. One will probably freak the other one out so much it'll be to scared to eat. This is really not a good idea unless your a breeder.
Now what you could do is get a make-up thing, and use the mirror on your gecko. Just not alot.

I have a Red Oscar and wanting to get anther oscar as well is this a good idea?
The Oscar I have is around 4.5" to 5" I have had him for aroung 2 or 3months. He is tanked with a blood parrot fish, a sucker and a little cichlid. They all live fine together, but I was wanting to get a 2nd Oscar I heard that this wasn't a good idea. If I do get another one is it best to get a Red Oscar or can I get a different kind?
I have a Red Oscar and wanting to get anther oscar as well is this a good idea?
It's not a good idea.
Oscars, like most cichlids, are not friends with each other, and two will not share a tank - they will split it and fight over it. The way to keep 2 Oscars in a tank is as a mated pair, in which case you must go through the proper motions of establishing one (starting off with several Oscars, waiting until a pair forms, and then removing the rest). Just shove a second O in there and you'll have aggression and fighting. If you decide to try and achieve a pair, then you should have at lest a 75 gallon aquarium for them. Of course, even for 1 Oscar you should have a 75 gallon tank - at least 50 anyway.
As it is the chances are that little cichlid won't live fine with your Oscar forever - cichlids get more territorial and more aggressive as they grow and mature, and yours are just babies. New world cichlids are meant to be kept in species tanks, not mixed cichlid tanks, despite the latter being the popular way to keep them, just like stuffy little bowls are the most popular way to keep goldfish, yet completely wrong too.
Reply:if you are wanting to get another Oscar you might need a bigger tank.i would also suggest taking the other fish out.Oscars grow really fast and they will eat other fish.Oscars are in the peruana family and eat meat.They will find your other fish as a quite tasty snack. any breed of Oscars can be kept together,but they will grow to the size of your tank and the bad thing is they dont stop growing.in about 5 to 6 years you might find a fish about the size of a large bluegill.if they get this big you will need a bigger tank or you will need to build a outdoor pond for them.Good luck
Reply:How big is your tank? You will need a rather large tank to house all these fish. And if you do get another Oscar, there is no guarantee that will get along, but your chances will be better if the tank is large.
Also rearranging the decor helps with any territorial issues.
Reply:you need at least a 175 gallon tank for all the fish you will have (assuming you add the 2nd oscar) becuase the oscar and pleco (sucker fish) need 100 gallons, and its 50 gallons per oscar AFTER THE FIRST (the first one is 75 gallons), and the parrot needs 25 gallons, so a 175 gallon tank minimum is needed.

How many stigma, anther, and stamen are ona dogwood flower?
I am doing a lab write up and need to know about the anatomy of a dogwood flower.
How many stigma, anther, and stamen are ona dogwood flower?
Cornus species have
4 or 5 sepals
4 or 5 petals
4 to 10 stamens
Inferior gynoecium with 2 carpels
Reply:Dogwood flower or Cornus florida, family: Cornaceae has 4 stamens,4 anthers and one stigma.
Reply:i believe its 13
Reply:The Dogwood flower is a small flower cluster. The flower cluster is surrounded by 4 large showy bracts that are often mistaken as petals. The four white "petals" aren't petals at all, but rather bracts, which are modified leaves. The actual flowers are the tiny greenish-yellow objects in the center of the thing people usually call dogwood flowers, but which is actually a flowering head. When the early spring flowers seem to present themselves before the leaves come out, they are actually modified leaves.
When the bracts of the dogwood flower are fully open, they measure about two inches in diameter. Flowering dogwood blooms in either white or pink, depending on the cultivar. Some of the white Dogwood flower cultivars are ‘Barton’, Cherokee Princes’, ‘Plena’, ‘Cherokee Daybreak’, and the White Flowering Dogwood (Cornus Florida). The pink and red Dogwood flower is exhibited by cultivars such as ‘Cherokee Chief’, ‘Cherokee Sunset’ and ‘Stokes Pink’.
All dogwoods are potential flower producers; however, trees grown from seed vary in the age at which they begin flowering. Fast growers will usually be delayed in beginning the flowering cycle. Those which produce an abundance of Dogwood flowers and follow up with a heavy berry crop will likely produce a small number of flowers the next year. Also, trees located in heavy shade tend to produce fewer flowers than those in full sun. Dogwood flower buds are quite evident in September; therefore, it is possible to predict the number of flowers that will be produced the next spring.
The Dogwood tree and the Dogwood flower are beautiful harbingers of spring and are the state flower of Virginia and North Carolina.

When the bracts of the dogwood flower are fully open, they measure about two inches in diameter. Flowering dogwood blooms in either white or pink, depending on the cultivar. Some of the white Dogwood flower cultivars are ‘Barton’, Cherokee Princes’, ‘Plena’, ‘Cherokee Daybreak’, and the White Flowering Dogwood (Cornus Florida). The pink and red Dogwood flower is exhibited by cultivars such as ‘Cherokee Chief’, ‘Cherokee Sunset’ and ‘Stokes Pink’.
All dogwoods are potential flower producers; however, trees grown from seed vary in the age at which they begin flowering. Fast growers will usually be delayed in beginning the flowering cycle. Those which produce an abundance of Dogwood flowers and follow up with a heavy berry crop will likely produce a small number of flowers the next year. Also, trees located in heavy shade tend to produce fewer flowers than those in full sun. Dogwood flower buds are quite evident in September; therefore, it is possible to predict the number of flowers that will be produced the next spring.
The Dogwood tree and the Dogwood flower are beautiful harbingers of spring and are the state flower of Virginia and North Carolina.

When a player is traded to anther team and they meet in the playoffs?
Does that player tell his new team some inside information from his old team- like what kind of game plan they had and special plays and all the other good stuff, or is it against 'the code' and he keeps it a secret?
When a player is traded to anther team and they meet in the playoffs?
He'll tell. I remember during a shootout this year, Rangers Flyers, Danny Briere was at the bench telling Biron what Drury would do. And sure enough, Biron seemed to know exactly what Drury would do and made an easy stop.
I'm sure they'd share to help playoff success.
Reply:Yea, no question about it. Just remember that Hockey is not like Football hand signals and EXACT plays and routes make up most of the team's strategy, hockey has some more general plays and breakout scenarios. Also, in the playoffs a coach would try and structure his teams play with that fact in mind and try to put something together which would alleviate any "edge" that would be given by their opponent having a former teammate.
Remember that this is a rare situation though since normally sellers are not going to make the playoffs and if they will, they will normally try and trade the player to a team in the opposite conference.
Reply:in any sport they would do that. and what code. if he tells is the gestapo goin to kill him. he'll do whatever he needs to do to win. and THAT'S why the cup changes everything(for anyone who watches versus).
Reply:As far as I know, there isn't a code or anything. The player should be aloud to tell his new team his former-team's plays..
Reply:I'm sure they'd share this info with their teammates if it means getting a step closer to winning the Stanley Cup.
Reply:sure he does. this happens in all sports. baseball players will help their new team steal signs too. that has always been a big problem.
Reply:YEAH/. Why not whatever it tkes to win
Reply:yeah.. it's a good advantage, that's for sure.

What is a possible explanation to why there are more pollen grains produced by an anther than ovules produced?
by one ovary?
What is a possible explanation to why there are more pollen grains produced by an anther than ovules produced?
Consider this by using humans in comparison. Women produce one ovum per every time meiosis (sex-cell production) occurs in the cells. Men on the other hand produce four sperm cells. The reason only one are produced in women is actually because 4 new eggs are produced, but only one has sufficient cytoplasm to survive. The cytoplasm division was fixed in favour so that one cell would have a lot. Women don't need so many eggs. They stay within the ovaries and wait for sperm to come along, they don't go anywhere. However, sperm cells, with the cytoplasm delivered equally to all of them, as they only need this much cytoplasm, are the ones looking for an egg to fertilize. They venture out into 'foreign places'. It's the same idea with pollen. It's going to go on a mission to pollenate more flowers. More ovules aren't necessary, they aren't going anywhere.
I apologize if my explanation wasn't clear enough, but I hope it helped.
Reply:Plants and their pollinators have co-evolved because plants offer a reward for the repeated visitation of 'their' pollinators. In flowering plants pollen has evolved two roles: carrier of sperm genome and food reward for pollinators. This requires they make pollen to cover both needs.
Both bees and beetles consume large quantities of pollen as their protein source. The plants seeking these pollination partners often signal the presence of pollen by visual and olfactory cues. Yellow food guides and showy stamens advertise pollen as a food source.

Pollen has its own scent, distinct from the whole flower aroma, in some species. to signal pollinators. Pollen eating insects are attracted by the smell of pollen to the mature flowers.

Bee pollen collection is to make a protein-rich food to feed the larvae.

Reply:The possible reason why there are more pollen grains produced than the ovary, is to ensure fertilization. When there are more pollen grains produced, there is a greater chance for pollination.

In Baseball if a released player is signd by anther team does the former team have to pay the player's salary?
For example, Jay Gibbons who the Orioles just released and now owe the player $11.9million, my understanding is that teams can sign the player for the existing contract, but after a certain period of time, the player can be signed for any amount.
If the player is signed for a lower amount, is the former club responsible for the original contract or are they responsible for the difference between the contract values?
In Baseball if a released player is signd by anther team does the former team have to pay the player's salary?
I think the new club is only responsible for the major league minimum, the old club for the difference.
Reply:no becuase hes not under contract with them
Reply:If a player is released during the season, his new team is only required to pay the major league minimum, pro-rated for the remainder of the season. His old team is obligated for the rest of his pay through the end of the season. If it is a multi-year contract, his new team takes it over completely next year.
Since Gibbons was released during spring training, however, different conditions may apply. Right now the Orioles are on the hook for all of it through 2009.

Is there a safe way to use my car to jump start anther car, without damaging the electronics or battery?
In these days of automated cars I have heard people say it is easy to damage the car providing the jump. I drive a 2007 Dodge Dakota
Is there a safe way to use my car to jump start anther car, without damaging the electronics or battery?
Yes. Check the owner manual for advice.
Reply:My brother was jumping his other car with a 97 dodge ram. Did not hurt his truck but with the extra amp going into the other car once it started it caused the security system in the other car to erase the codes in the key causing the car to no longer start would just turn over. So you have to be careful with newer cars.Some times its better to get a jump box or another battery to be safe.
Reply:I'd agree with Bobweb's link with one disagreement....jump starting a dead or mostly discharged battery puts a severe strain on the alternator...they are not meant to charge a dead battery, only to maintain one that is slightly discharged and provide power for the running operation of a car. I've always been taught to leave the two cars jumped together at high idle, with all accessories and lights turned off, for around 20 minutes to spread the charging load over two alternators rather than the one on the discharged car. It's best to use a regular portable battery charger of around 75 amps rating or higher but jumping in this manner will minimize possible damage to the alternator. As always, it's important to connect and disconnect jumper cables in the proper order to avoid voltage surges or shorts.
Reply:Hook up the red positive cables to both cars first, then the negative on the dead car, then the negative on the good car. Rev the motor to at least 2,500 rpm while cranking the dead vehicle. I'd pull the negative cable from the good car right away to protect it once the dead one is running.
Reply:No expert will stick their neck out and gaurantee that damage cannot occur no matter what procedure you follow in my opinion because that's the nature of transient electrical pulses which aren't completely predictable. Not only that, but different car manufacturers use different electrical and electronics that may be more or less vulnerable to electrical transients just like the electronics in your home during a thunder storm. Here's the best jump start online video procedure I have found to date and in an emergency that I'd use.

Reply:My brother burned his ECU for jump start a dead car with ignition on. the dealer told that he could jump start another car but with the ignition OFF. So, it's safer to turn off your engine while boosting a dead car.
Reply:Connect positive to positive and negative to negative. Always connect the negative last and disconnect the negative first. Then you should be fine.

I have annuity from one bank and I rollover to anther bank do i have to paid taxes on the money i rollover?
If you have the funds deposited directly with the second bank, you should not have to pay taxes. However, this needs to be arranged beforehand. Set up an account with the new bank then contact the old bank and let them you know want to rollover to a new custodian (new bank). They will make the check out directly to the new bank.

I have annuity from one bank and I rollover to anther bank do i have to paid taxes on the money i rollover?
You'll want to do a 1035 exchange to keep this tax deferred. The new company you are going with will have the details inside and out, but if you need further explanation, you can email me.
Also, make sure you do significant shopping ahead of time. Typically, annuities have hefty CDSCs, (contingent deferred sales charges) so you'll be locked in for a while. Different companies vary widely in the benefits they offer within their annuity contracts.

What is the anther of a flowers function?
Hey there!
An anther is a flower structure in which haploid male gametophytes are produced. The anther is where the stamen is located.
The anther also makes pollen grains.
Hope it helps!

How to marry someone from anther country?
I am from the United States. I have been chatting with a girl from the philippines for the past year. We chat at least once a week and we talk on the phone regularly. Right now she is in China working. Next year she is planning on moving to Canada for work. She didnt apply to usa knowing how difficult it was to come here. Once she was in Canada we where planning to met for the first time. My question is, If we find each other just as close in person, as we have over the past year and year coming. How hard would it be for us to get married and live are life together here in the USA?
How to marry someone from anther country?
Here is the info you requested... I don't know what the guy above is referring to about embassies and all...
as a side note the US does recognize foreign marriages so you can get married in Canada
Check the link below.
Reply:Assuming she's not already married (there's no divorce in the Philippines) and she has no criminal record you should have no trouble.
Reply:You've never even met this girl before and you're talking about marrying her? She's obviously trying to take advantage of you. Quit smoking crack and get real.
Reply:Before a huge decision about marriage I really think you should know her better. If you 2 hit it off after the first meeting in person see how it goes for a few months. Then perhaps really look in to what has to be done for marrying a foreigner.Good luck.
Reply:The legal process for you and your girlfriend to become a twosome will require you/she to consult with your respective embassies, provide birth certificates, verification of employment, bank statements, personal references, and perhaps an affidavit of sponsorship for her.
Reply:Careful Buddy,
Lots of these so called mail order brides often come with a lot of problems....
Hope you aren't thinking about sending her money that is a for sure way to pick out a scam artist.
But, in the event things are on the up and up I wish you luck. Going the Canadian route sounds like a smart move especially if you live near the Canadian border....

What is the difference between anther and pollen?
on a diagram i have there is an arrown pointing to the top of the filament adn it says anther and also pollen. is it that the anther has the pollen inside it?
What is the difference between anther and pollen?
The stamen is the male organ of a flower. Each stamen generally has a stalk called the filament, and, on top of the filament, an anther.
ANTHER
The anther is usually composed of four pollen sacs, which are called microsporangia. The development of the microsporangia and the contained haploid spores (called pollen-grains) is closely comparable with that of the microsporangia in gymnosperms or heterosporous ferns. The pollen is set free by the opening (dehiscence) of the anther, generally by means of longitudinal slits, but sometimes by pores, as in the heath family (Ericaceae), or by valves, as in the barberry family (Berberidaceae). It is then dropped, or carried by some external agent — wind, water or some member of the animal kingdom — onto the receptive surface of the carpel of the same or another flower, which is thus pollinated.
POLLEN
Pollen is produced in the microsporangium (contained in the anther of an angiosperm flower, male cone of a coniferous plant, or male cone of other seed plants). Pollen grains come in a wide variety of shapes, sizes, and surface markings characteristic of the species (see photomicrograph at right). Most, but certainly not all, are spherical. Pollen grains of pines, firs, and spruces are winged. The smallest pollen grain, that of the Forget-me-not plant (Myosotis sp.), is around 6 µm (0.006 mm) in diameter. The study of pollen is called palynology and is highly useful in paleontology, archeology, and forensics.
Reply:The anther is the structure which holds all the pollen grains till they get matured.diaghram will point both towards it but actually pollengrains are inside.
Reply:The anther is the part that makes the pollen.
Reply:The pollen is made by the anther
Reply:The anther is a container at the top of the filament. (the stamen is made up of the filament and the anther). The pollen is formed inside the anther and is released at maturity.
