What are some causes of unexplained brusising besides leukimia? 172.131.228.28 02:48, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

Why isn't the name of Megalosaurus corrected to Scrotum humanum because that name came to name it first? It it censoring?-- Sonjaaa 05:46, 15 July 2006 (UTC)
So they thought the original name was a joke? How insulting! I think we need to honour the name that has priority, even if it's silly.-- Sonjaaa 15:08, 15 July 2006 (UTC)
hey ppl. can ne one tell me de relation connectin force nd load...... i know that force is directly proportional to load and also that load usually refers to mass or kilograms but then why is it so????
pressure = force/area = newton/meter^2
stress = load/area = newton/meter^2
according to which force and load are considered in terms of newton y ? where ? and how ? has the load of unit "kilograms" become newton ????????
First off, my apologies about the subject. They were the closest things I could find to what I describe, but I'm rather certain neither are quite it.
In any case, upon being touched I've noticed that I often have what seems like a reflex action (it's definitely not a voluntary action) to move to defend myself -- not striking the other person or anything, but quickly moving away or moving an arm between me and them. It only happens when the touch is unexpected. Handshaking, when I can see that I am going to be touched or even, perhaps, simply hearing that someone is very close could mitigate the response. My question is what causes this? At first I was thinking a reflex but it is not learned nor exhibited in all humans. Perhaps an example of classical conditioning, save that it's not conditioned. Finally, I was thinking maybe something related to sensory overload, though that may be quite a stretch.
So does anyone have any better possibilities and links for further reading? Thanks.
I'd like to build a little device for a science fair project about resonance. It should be able to automatically detect the resonant frequency of whatever it's placed on (a metal bar, plaque, etc) and apply a force accordingly. Shouldn't be a difficult circuit, but I've been having issues with what parts I'd need, and Googling for it hasn't helped because I don't have the right keywords. Any clue? I'm pretty sure it's been done before and there must be blueprins available online. Thanks! - Anon
Any idea how do mobile phones having swivel screen technology transfer all the picture information through the swivel hinge?is it somewhatlike the tv co axial cable?
We detect the radiation of energy from black holes,as they release it in the form of a beam.Does that mean we ONLY detect the ones aligned in the earth direction,but not in the other directions?
Why do metals arc when placed in the microwave?
See here. I can't be bothered rephrasing it, sorry. Killfest2 14:04, 15 July 2006 (UTC)
We know that E=hv.But what about two rays of same frequency but diferent amplitute??
What is a spleen and where is it located?Thank you.
There is a vaccine I am interested in. A phase 1 clinical safety trial of this vaccine is planned for the fourth quarter of 2006. If all goes well with this trial and all the other stages of the vaccine trials that a vaccine goes through, how long will it be before people can get it?
I've looked through wikipedia and found only vague answers so far. So, if anyone could tell me the typical time this process takes, they would be very helpful.
-- -OOPSIE- 15:00, 15 July 2006 (UTC)
It varies enormously. A safety trial simply means that in a relatively small number of people there is no immediately detectable harm. The bigger challenge is the efficacy and benefit/risk trial. The length depends on the number of people in the trial and how high their risk of the infection and how easy it is to prove they were protected. An example of a "quick" trial would be against a common disease that affected 20% of people in a narrow age range and caused unmistakeable, serious manifestations and there was no good treatment. It would be easy to recruit people and easy to detect the benefit, and approval might happen as quickly as 4-5 years. An example of this type of disease was bronchiolitis caused by respiratory syncytial virus. At the opposite end was cervical papillomavirus, which is currently a topic of controversy in the US and has been in development status for a long time. alteripse 15:14, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

morbas:I am the author, copyright is no issue.
Looks like a lot of speculation with no real evidence or support. Not very believable either. Seems like just another crack-pot theory.
morbas: Reply to any issues can be had on Astronomy user forums.
Definitely looks like a crackpot theory. But I would suggest you publish your "theory" in a peer reviewd scientific journal. Otherwise it will never be accepted by anyone in the scientific community.
morbas: Is this for emphasis? Also check your spelling.
Hi! Can you give a precise explanation, why the word 'CARBORISED' is used in some match-boxes? Pupunwiki 17:33, 15 July 2006 (UTC)
I recently read in a magazine that it takes twelve bee lifetimes to make one teaspoon of honey. Is this true?
I did go and buy a jar of honey after reading this, as it would be churlish to ignore somethings life's work.
I wonder what the equivalent would be in human lifetimes work. How many, for example, human lifetimes did it take to build the Eiffel Tower? What about other well-known human artifacts? How many human lifetimes to put a man on the moon?

I walked through a ripe field of wheat recently. After removing stalks and husks, it seemed you would'nt get much flour from a wheat ear. Hence my question please. -- 81.104.12.4 23:37, 15 July 2006 (UTC)
According to this recipe, 6 cups makes 2 loaves (3 cups = 1 loaf). According to this, 4 3/8 cups of flour is 125 grams; so 3 cups is 85.7 grams. 85.7 grams is 0.188 pounds. As Eric said above, one acre produces 35 bushels * 45 pounds/bushel = 1575 pounds of wheat. Thus, one loaf requires 0.00011936 acres (about 5 square feet). Raul654 00:10, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
Thank you for the replies, but you forget that loaves are made with flour and water. They are not completely dry when you eat them. I would try to calculate it myself except I don't understand all these "cups". Its odd that you still use Imperial measures in the US, while the Motherland has been using metric for decades.
I'm thinking of putting up a trellis fence in my back garden, to mark the line between the cut lawn and the uncut meadow-style grass.
At the end of the long garden is a busy road. I recall from schoolboy studies that sound could cancel itself out (to some expent) by interference by passing through the grid of the trellis.
What would be the optimum size of the grid to best reduce the traffic noise? By size I mean the distance between the wooden laths that would make up the trellis grid. -- 81.104.12.4 23:50, 15 July 2006 (UTC)
If you are using the trellis as a diffraction grating then it wouldn't cancel the noise out. The interference pattern would be a pattern of dots where in some directions he noise would be reduced ( destructive interference) and in others it would be increased ( constructive interference) the exact directions would depend on the frequency of the sound waves. But here's the rub. Noise is a whole range of frequencies. I cannot see how this could possibly work, but perhaps I am missing something? Theresa Knott | Taste the Korn 08:40, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
Thank you for your replies. But think about an analogy with a radio telescope. The reflector they use is often (or perhaps always) a metal grid rather than solid metal, presumably because it reflects the radio waves almost as well as solid metal. I expect there is some relationship between the wavelength of the radio source and the size of the grid. By analogy, a wooden grid made the correct size for the sound wavelength could be as effective as a solid wall. The problem is, what is the best relationship between wavelength and lath spacing?
