How is the age of Giant Tortoises determined, verified, since they normally outlive their human observers?
just wondering, since large species of tortoises have very long lifespans, much longer than most humans ever live, i think its the norm for large tortoises to live over 100.
3 AnswersReptiles4 months agois the 2000 election between Bush and Gore, was that the only time in U.S. history, the Supreme Court intervened in a presidential election?
or have there been other times? other occurances? It was 20 years ago, but the legacy, outcome of that election, will always be controversial, some people think if a state-wide recount in Florida had been allowed to continue longer, Gore might have won.
1 AnswerPolitics5 months agoWhich MLB team that has never won a World Series, can possibly win their first World Series title in the near future?
I know that the Rays never have, but they blew it, i wouldn't mind seeing them bounce back next season, barely last year, the Washington Nationals won their first ever World Series, which MLB team do you think is next, that has yet to win their first World Series title?
10 AnswersBaseball5 months agoIs Mark Davis no different from his Father Al Davis? because the fortunes for the Raiders never changed after Al Davis passed away in 2011,?
The Raiders have had only 1 winning season in the post-Al Davis era, the 2016 season, I wonder if that season was a fluke, because the Raiders would go back to their losing ways after that 2016 playoff season, makes me wonder why they couldn't keep that momentum going.
Seriously, the Raiders have had only 1 winning season in the past nearly 2 decades now, since that Super Bowl massacre against the Buccs in the 2002 season, it makes you wonder why that Super Bowl massacre destroyed the Raiders for the long-term, some say the wheels were set in motion prior to that SB Massacre, that it started in the Tuck Rule game from the season before.

9 AnswersFootball (American)1 year agoWhat is the reason why women look for leadership in men? why are men expected to be the leaders in heterosexual relationships?
reason why it enrages and bothers me a lot is because I don't really know how to lead, and it bothers me a lot that people say it can be learned, reason why it pisses me off, is because the way it looks like, girls, women, don't really have to learn any specific behaviors or skills to attract guys other than just be attractive.
Guys have to know a whole bunch of things.
So why do women innately, instinctively, look for leadership in men?
4 AnswersSingles & Dating1 year agoIs it normal, common, for people to lose friends during the teenage years, or after high school? to grow apart, drift apart, lose touch?
As in, is growing apart, drifting apart, going your separate ways, losing touch with childhood friends during the teenage years or after high school, is it a normal, common part of life?
Just asking, because it happened to me, I want to know if this is not an unusual situation at all, do the majority of childhood friends not last into adulthood?
21 AnswersFriends2 years agoWhich Fast and Furious film was the film in the franchise that made the series extend this long as it has so far?
Which film was the turning point in the franchise? Because the Fast and Furious film has been going too long already, but at the end of the day, its all about the money, its all business.
That's the main reason why they keep making Fast and Furious movies, because it rakes in too much money at the box-office, I think the vast majority of the films box-office success has come from overseas, outside the U.S.
I've heard that it was Fast Five, a response I got from someone on social media, said to me:
"It was definitely Fast Five.
The original plan when Vin Diesel came back, was a proper trilogy with Dom that never came to be the first time.
When Fast Five exploded at the box-office, Universal and the cast just decided to keep rocking it, rollin' it, until the wheels fall off."
So was it really Fast Five, that was the turning point in the series, franchise, that made the series last this long as it has so far?
2 AnswersMovies2 years agowhich incident were there more deaths? the Nanjing Massacre? or Hiroshima and Nagasaki atomic bombing death toll combined?
reason for asking this question, is due to the bad blood, resentment, bitterness between China and Japan, well mainly on China's side, China feels that Japan has never held themselves accountable for the war crimes they have committed against China, that Japan has never apologized for the atrocities, crimes against China during the Sino-Japan wars.
The main source of friction, resentment, is the Nanjing Massacre, the death toll seems to vary but its often estimated at like 300,000 people killed, or less than that, or more.
With the Atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, I've heard over 200,000 people were killed in both total, or less than that, but I've heard varying stats for both.
i'm bringing up both incidents, because I assume China views the atomic bombs of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, as karma, revenge, payback for the Nanjing massacre.

11 AnswersFootball (American)2 years agoDo you think LeBron will seriously bolt Cleveland again?
those rumors, talks have been floating around more lately, but seriously, why? he won a ring with the Cavaliers last year(2016), plus, if he does leave Cleveland again, it sounds like LeBron doesn't care about his image, reputation, so why would he leave Cleveland again?

4 AnswersBasketball4 years agoYou think the real downfall of the 49ers started when Eddie DeBartolo was forced to sell the team due to legal troubles off the field?
I'm referring to former 49ers owner Eddie DeBartolo, after he left, the 49ers have gone through lots of Coaches and many horrible drafts.
The hiring of Jim Harbaugh was the only decent thing to happen for the 49ers in the post Eddie DeBartolo era, but sadly things didn't work out because he couldn't get along with Trent Baalke and Jed York, and now the 49ers are back to the same old mess they have been since Eddie DeBartolo was forced to sell the team in the late 90's, or i think it was the year 2000 when he was forced to give up control of the team, not sure. Before Harbaugh arrived in 2011, the 49ers had not made the playoffs since 2002, even though they missed the playoffs in Harbaugh's last season, i believe that was mostly due to friction between Jed York and Trent Baalke. When Harbaugh was with the 49ers, they made it to the NFC title game 3 years in a row and made it to the Super Bowl in his second year! Now look at the 49ers since Harbaugh left? they are a mess again.
4 AnswersFootball (American)5 years agohow come the human mating dance can't be how other animals do it? in which the males have to fight another male?
here is an example of how lions do it compared to humans:
"In the animal kingdom, when a male lion comes of age he begins to make his move to acquire a female lion to breed with. If he’s unsuccessful with one group of females, he goes to another area and meets some more. Unlike us human males, a lion has to fight and sometimes kill another lion to take over the pack and territory so he can then breed with the female(s).
As a human man, you simply have to walk over and talk to women and if you’re able to get her attracted by displaying confidence, social intelligence and masculinity, then she is not only going to be interested in having sex with you, but she’ll most-likely want to be your girlfriend or wife."
So why can't it be that way? the reason why i wish it was that way at times is due to anger, rage, and frustration over having shyness, social anxiety, social-awkwardness, having below average social-skills, and i hate how me as a guy i have to overcome and improve that if i want to have a girlfriend, meanwhile women don't have to do squat for that because women don't have to be the initiators.

women have a biological clock, since men don't, why are men supposed to view this as a blessing, feel lucky?
3 AnswersGender Studies6 years agoif a girl in class says to you, want to get together to study sometime, or study together sometime, is that a sign that she likes you?
or do you think is only just looking for help? as for liking you, do you think it usually means the girl likes you as a friend or as a potential boyfriend?
I got this girls number in class, even though I was the one who made the first move on her, in terms of approaching and talking to her first, after a little over 2 weeks of talking, at the end of class she offers me her phone number first instead of me asking, saying on getting together to study sometime. Of course I accept.
Anyhow, she canceled plans on the day we were supposed to meet up, if a girl flakes on your like that, did she all of a sudden lose interest?
3 AnswersSingles & Dating6 years agoWhat were the reasons for the fallout with Jim Harbaugh and Jed York, that led to his departure?
I still find it ridiculous, crazy, insane, before Harbaugh arrived, the 49ers missed the playoffs for a decade straight, in his first year the 49ers make it to the NFC title game, overall 3 years straight they made it to the NFC title game, going to the Super Bowl in the second year of him being the Head Coach, so what were the factors as to why he left?
These are the rumored reasons I have heard, are because 49ers GM Trent Baalke and Jim Harbaugh couldn't get along with eachother, and other is that Harbaugh wanted more power in the organization, like a GM role, and his personality is too strong to be a Yes Man to owner Jed York.
Overall, what do you think?
7 AnswersFootball (American)6 years agoWhy had the 49ers been wanting to part ways with Jim Harbaugh for a while now? the 49ers were a joke for a decade prior to his arrival?
The 49ers had missed the playoffs, post-season for a decade straight prior to his arrival, the 49ers make the NFC title game for 3 years in a row, the Super Bowl in his second year, so why did the 49ers want to part ways with him?
