I would like to live for a few months in the US. Is it easy to find even a small job like at a mall or whatever where I can make about 800 dollars a month, pay rent for 400 dollars a month and live with the reamining 400 dollars? Could I pull it off ? I also know some IT, could I easily find a small job as consulting IT, programming always for a minimal, but enough to get by amount of money ? Any state would do, just to have an idea. Thanks for any information.

I'm leaving for Israel in a few hours to go the the Weizmann institute. If I don't get to a computer in that time, I'll talk to you guys in a month. Bye!

do you need a license to carry a sword in the USA?

any1 know where i can get a gibson sg standard or a gibson sg 61' reissue for under $1,000 in iowa?

Does anybody know any good websites on chemistry? I am looking particularly for something about different techniques of purifying copper, and the role of water in such processes. I would really like to know some of the good sites you guys use (if any!). Thanks alot, - BigMoosie

it's raining. i can tell when it's going to rain, but no one ever believes me. even when they see me tell them it is going to rain and tit starts raining like thirty minutes later, they say it is coincidence. it's rather easy to do. temp change+humidity+sweet smell=rain. the thing that gets people is the smell. appearently, not everyone can smell it(iirc, it's ozone). i remember hearing about native american shaman could smell when the rain was coming. maybe me being a decendant of native american great grandparents gives me a higher sensitivity to that perticular smell. anyway, i was right again.

Do you? If you don't (or do), then you will like this: Hmm....who knows, these may be Extremist Islamic Penguins who intend to take over Antarctica for Osama Bin Laden. If this isn't the age of extreme paranoia, I don't know which age it will be then. Penguins through metal detectors?? Brrr....

this thread is dedicated to the awesomeness of the ninja and ninjitsu.

hello: i find some thread is banned from my access,and warn me that further attempt may deprive my rights of further posting,what are the reasons

Next year I will be moving into Sixth form to take my AS levels where I get to choose all my subjects for the first time. After much consideration I had to narrow them down to 4 subjects and general studies (which is compulsory, but isn't a real subject so it doesn't count). My choices don't involve any science as such but as the following shows, science isn't really nessersary. I don't need to study biology because I am studying Enlgish which pretty much covers sex and death. I don't need to study physics because I am studying maths wich will fufil my number crunching needs. I don't need to study physcology because I am studying theatre so I'll know all about hidde…

As of June 15, I will be a nuclear engineer for the United States Navy. Go me

Slashdot has an article on this which seems to be the best place to start, because it has some convenient hyperlinks to specific places of interest. http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=05/06/26/0139251&from=rss

How was it? Who can provide me the pic of the villians in this film--esp that Scarecrow? I heard the movie is not as good as the previous ones.

I assume those who love science must have played the game series--Resident Evil. I know it is fiction, but I want to get the idea of author of this game series of what he was trying to imply or illustrated in his theory. maybe I need to reveal this monster's pic in order to let you know: I know he was made of a real human. I read the guide published by Bradygames that he was made of 'specimen." Who has an insight of how this monster was made of? And when I played Resident Evil Remade into the very end, there was a lab where this monster was held. Also that there were many tanks that inside of them there were octupus-like ugly creatures--did they have to do with maki…

Did anyone see Spurs vs Piston series? Just a question. When the game held in Spurs court--SBC center, there was an opening background music that was from Space Jam. Who knows who is the singer and the theme of this song?

I am 21 years old, I still think I can grow an inch or two in height. I know people always recommend to play swimming or basketball if needing to get taller. Do oyu think tennis is also a good one that can boost up your height? Because as you play, you need to explosive your feet all the time for getting the ball with a great balance.

Has anyone ever heard of Bigelow Aerospace? Here is a link to the site: http://www.bigelowaerospace.com This would be so awesome... I hope he follows through with it. The guy has a lot of money (owns a hotel chain in Las Vegas) and he has wanted to do it since he was like 14 so he's in it because it's his dream (not saying he wont do it for the profit too:) ). Maybe some competition could start to arise between him and Richard Branson (Virgin Galactic... http://www.virgingalactic.com/en/ ). I think there are a few others too. One of these has to make it right? Unfortunately, I don't think NASA will push space enough... it's probably going to be up to the private c…

1. He considers himself a genius. 2. He believes himself unjustly persecuted and discriminated against. 3. He has strong compulsions to focus his attacks on the greatest scientists and best established theories. 4. He regards his colleagues, without exception, as ignorant blockheads. (note, this was not my list, i'll have to dig up where i got it) Scientific theories are characterized by such things as (a) being based upon empirical observation rather than the authority of some sacred text; (b) explaining a range of empirical phenomena; © being empirically tested in some meaningful way, usually involving testing specific predictions deduced from…

I'm going to Israel's Wiezmann's Institute this summer, in a pre-college research program. I get to pick from different labs and different projects. I know I want to do a bio project, but I can't decide which ones. Maybe someone could help me decide? The abstracts are available here: http://www.weizmann.ac.il/diff_angle/young/unit_e.php?line=179&sbline=1954 Thank you very much!

The NBA lockout is being heard everywhere. I still don't get it, does it mean that there is not enough ecnomical supply to NBA so they have to close like 1998? By the way, in your views, what teams of NBA next season will likely to give audiences a huge surprising change like the Suns did last season? I am thinking of Warriors. What do oyu think Warriors will be if Baron keeps healthy?

Who has seen NBA final Game 7? Before the very last 6 minutes, the game looked interesting. By then, pistons did not do well on defense, slacking off. If Piston came hard at the end, the result won't be like this.

Recently I have been needing a very high dose of a specific supplement do to medical reasons. So I wanted to purchase some vitamins over the internet to cut cost, because the supplement isn't cheap... I was wondering what yall thought, is it a good idea? Also, if I were to do so, how would I check out a company to make sure they aren't screwing me? Any advice?

Why can't I access it? It says I might not have the privileges or something....
