My Question Is Not Listed In The Physics Category Yahoo Answers Bug/glitch

Why there are negative conflicts between muslims and christians in the religion and spirituality category?

I do not argue, I simply state my opinions, never to be meant as rude. Some people are not as open minded, enlightened, educated, etc.

On an aside though, do not expect a Christian to respond well to the term "infidel."

Help with Assassin's Creed 3 West New York Delivery Request Items?

I've been playing Assassin's Creed 3 nonstop since I got it last week. I beat the campaign, and working on side quests right now. I've finished all of the delivery requests in Boston and New York, but I can't get the West New York Items. So far I have:

Salt 1/1
Venison 0/5
Hare Meat 5/5
Elk Meat 5/5
Bread 2/2

Yes I know, venison is easy to get, just go hunt some deer, and I have! In Connor's inventory I have 14 venison in stock, and you can't buy venison from the stockpile. I even tried getting "new" venison by hunting around in Kanien:keh and Diamond Basin, and I skinned 5 deer. No luck.

Is this a glitch where I'm screwed forever, or is there a way around it?

Thanks!

What is wrong with the Indian education system?

Thinking.Science for intelligent ones.Commerce for “good in maths” students.Arts for weak students.Question papers.Bihar boards’ open cheating.Repeating the same questions from past papers. Leading to proliferation of “guidebooks” business.Clash of views.If your views don’t match with the teachers’, you won’t get desired marks.Long hauls.11000 UPSC aspirants on an average don’t make it in the interview. 2000 of them don’t find their place in the merit list. They have to go through the process again. They could have had easily filled any group B job.Mugging over understanding.“Sun rises in the east and sets in the west.”People writing XII boards mostly remember the solution of the question asked in their exam.Stickiness in thought process.Reforms are envisaged in 10 years. It takes 10 years to implement them.K. Kasturirangan to head panel on National Education Policy. He will suggest some fresh reforms. But alas, all those reforms will bite the dust.TSR Subramanian’s recommendations on Higher education are yet to be implemented.Last day hauls.“Ma’am told us these important topics. Learn these by heart. You will get good marks.”Sad part is that these persons really do top the exams.It leads to “Yes men” around teachers and professors.Vicious cycles.Intelligent—- Science—-Send to Kota—-Depressed—-Suicide.Commerce — Prepare for CA — Feels like not interested — ends up wasting precious time.Arts --Prepare for UPSC—not interested—- ends up wasting many years.Extraordinary delays.CBSE did some serious mistakes in this year’s results. Now, many students' marks are increasing. But college cut off won’t count those increased marks. These students miss the cutoffs of their favourite colleges.UPSC exams takes an year to complete the process. Many young years are drained into it.Things are beaten into the head.My friend’s sibling had started writing sentences. I asked him to write something. I asked him to write something in 5 different ways.He wrote the word “something” in five different fonts!When after few months, the teacher asked him to write something, he did the same. He was scolded by the teacher. He came to home crying.AImage: Don't Let Perfect Get In the Way of Progress.

Teachers: Have you ever accused a student of cheating and been wrong?

I definitely gave students zeros when they might have not been guilty of cheating. I can’t be 100% certain, but there had to be a few.I taught in an American dual degree program in china for 3 years. In one 5 month stretch, I probably caught about 55 or so students cheating.Seriously, I warned them that I was a ninja and that I would figure out if they were cheating. Some were idiots… I warned them every time… I gave them quizzes so that I could demonstrate all the different ways I would catch them in hopes that they wouldn’t cheat on a test. I would tell them if they were talking at all, for any reason, they would be receiving a zero. This is why I always gave at least 3 quizzes before the test so that they could see how serious I was and so that they wouldn’t fail the course if they cheated during a test.This was drilled into them. I would ask ‘What do you do when your neighbor says anything?’ and they would respond and say that they were not to respond. This rule was to be fair for everyone so that I wouldnt have to factor in my own bias if a student was cheating or asking what the answer is ;) jkA few times I had to take tests because of talking and the students were very upset. A couple times I was convinced that the student hadn’t cheated. I had one guy really upset because he didn’t want me to think less of him and he got emotional. As I said with all students, it was just a zero, he would need to study harder for the rest of the course and that I did not judge his character. It was tough, but rarely did I catch a student cheating twice.In one instance I ended up tutoring a student that was having a difficult time… Chinese students were very innovative with cheating. I learned a lot from my Chinese colleagues about how to catch it. They were so much more savvy than American students I’ve had haha

How do you log into messenger without a password?

Anybody who would come to that conclusion, that is, that those who experience disaster are being punished, are betraying an ignorance about what the Bible teaches about the character of God.We humans tend to view longevity or material possessions or good health as blessings and therefore poverty or illness or a shortened life as tragic.But what if what really matters in this life is the lessons we learn through our suffering? This life is mercifully short and packed with experiences that will translate into the next life..or not, depending on what we do with them.the Bible says that God is not willing that any should perish but that all would come to repentance.The most wicked King of the kingdom of Judah was Manasseh. He reigned for 55 years, more than any other king and yet he shed innocent blood during most of his reign. His grandson, Josiah, only reigned 31 years, though he was one of the top 5 Kings of Judah, in righteousness comparable to King David.What was Josiah's sin that he be so punished? Only God knows the answer to this question, but I do find it interesting that Manasseh had a change of heart at the end of his life and enacted a series of reforms before he died.Had he been properly judged for all of his misdeeds, that moment of repentance would not have happened and he would have died in his sins.Why was John the Baptist beheaded, as well as James, but Peter was spared? I'm sure God had his purposes.The disciples once asked Jesus, who sinned, this blind man or his parents? Jesus told them, neither the blind man or his parents sinned but he was left that way for that very moment so that when Jesus healed him it would bring glory to God.Luke 13 Now there were some present at that time who told Jesus about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mixed with their sacrifices. 2 Jesus answered, “Do you think that these Galileans were worse sinners than all the other Galileans because they suffered this way? 3 I tell you, no! But unless you repent, you too will all perish. 4 Or those eighteen who died when the tower in Siloam fell on them—do you think they were more guilty than all the others living in Jerusalem? 5 I tell you, no! But unless you repent, you too will all perish.”

How did the Teen Titans survive Terra's attacks?

Okay, when I first saw what happened, it bugged me to no end. After a while I forgot about it but after I recently rewatched season two with my brothers (oh, family time, the only time that brings up old issues) and I once again remembered my hatred for not knowing how the effing hell Beast Boy, Cyborg, Raven, and Starfire survived having the Earth close in on them!! (Starfire may be exempt, she fell into the ocean, but as she was unconscious she should've drowned. And Robin was not sucked into a gaping fissure of which I doubt anyone, even a superhero, could've survived, so he is not on my list of "WTF?!!?!?!?!")
Now, am I missing something here? Was I not paying attention enough? (I probably wasn't because I was complaining that even the laws of superhero physics couldn't have possibly let them survive. I mean, come on! SUPERHERO PHYSICS! That's the most lax form of physics ever! Seriously!) But I have absolutely no idea how the hell the got out. I've watched all the special features on the DVDs and if they had commentary I would've listened to them by now, but I still have no clue how they pulled that trick.
If anyone can answer my question would be greatly appreciated.

What should I do if my parents are installing a security camera in my bedroom?

Here are a few ideas -Sneakily spray clear coat on the lens, if you’re bad at spray painting like me, it will make the lens hazy, but still seem ok from outside. if you got enough time before the installation, you can sand the lens with 80 grit and then clear coat it.Do the math (or Physics?) and use permanent / electromagnets to produce an electromagnetic field in your room that renders all electronic devices within the field unusable.If the field of view of the camera isn’t your entire room, you can stash all your playboys in a blinded corner.use optical illusion - a set of mirrors to generate a kaleidoscopic effect and totally confuse the person watching the video footage.Get access to where the video footage is being temporarily stored (if its CCTV it would probably be linked to a memory device on a nearby computer) and hack into that device. Modulate the clock and timings on the footage to show it 3 days later than live!. this will give you enough time to edit the footage before it goes live.Ask a friend to steal your camera (or steal it yourself) and damage a window or something to fake a burglary. Tell your parents that they pointed a gun at yaIf the above “very practical” pro tips don’t work, let them install the camera and when its midnight, start acting like you have been possessed by a spirit etc. After a few days your parents will take you to the exorcist's, bribe the exorcist and tell them to tell your parents that its the camera that is bothering an evil spirit and it will keep possessing your child unless you get rid of that device.Even if that doesn’t work, tell your parents that you’re now scared of sleeping alone in your room and would like to sleep in their room instead. They will agree at first as they are loving parents, but later when they wouldn’t get any chance for romance or making out in their own room they will kick you out of the house…problem solved!Lemme know how it goesPeace

Is friction required to push, and can a frictionless object exceed the speed of what's pushing it?

I've been mulling over a question for my conceptual physics class all weekend, and it's been driving me up the wall. The situation is:

A sled on ice moves in the ways described in questions 1-7 below. FRICTION IS SO SMALL THAT IT CAN BE IGNORED. A person wearing spiked shows standing on the ice can apply a force to the sled and push it along the ice. Choose the ONE force (A through G) which would KEEP THE SLED MOVING as described in each statement below.

1. Which force would keep the sled moving toward the right and SPEEDING UP AT A STEADY RATE (constant acceleration)?
My answer was:
"The force is towards the RIGHT and INCREASING in strength (magnitude)", but we were told that the answer was
"The force is to the right is and is CONSTANT strength (magnitude)."

This was a multiple choice, with answers A-G being "To the (right/left) and is (increasing/at a constant/decreasing) in strength (magnitude) and "No applied force is needed."

After this bugged me for three hours, I realized that, in this situation, the force being applied is from a person wearing spiked shoes, and is therefore limited by the force that he generates. if he stays at a CONSTANT speed, say, 5MPH, the sled, friction-less though it may be, will not accelerate any more than the person pushing it, right? I understand that, if the situation was in say, space, and there was a little jet pack exerting constant force, say, 5 MPH) that the item WOULD increase in speed constantly, or if the force moving the sled was something ON the sled, like a fan, or a rocket pack, that it would constantly increase in speed, but given that the firce is coming from something that DOES have friction, the dude in the shoes, the sleds speed is limited to his, right?

I know this is full of run-on sentences, but any confirmation or well explained answer would be GREAT.

And for the record, I already did the assignment. I'm not trying to get Y!A to do my homework for me :)
