4 AnswersOther - Home & Garden1 decade agoWhy did sports become naturally segregated?
Serious question. If you have bothered to notice, there aren't many African-American ice skaters or swimmers. On the other hand, there are a disproportionately large number of African Americans in some sports like (American) football and basketball.
Where is the justification of equality in that?
4 AnswersOther - Cultures & Groups1 decade agoWere the proportions of the Christian cross ever standardized?
I have been told "No" but I find it hard to believe that no one ever thought to declare some standard reserved for official use. Can anyone explain the situation?

I am looking for a twin socket like this, but in candelabra size. I don't want the switch.

Please don't suggest that I use that along with a pair of standard-to-candelabra adapters... I am working with a small lamp and need the sockets to be small!
Thank you.

5 AnswersPolls & Surveys1 decade agoLooking for 20th century artist name?
He was a painter who did a lot of paintings with the subject of women in oriental-styled settings. His work had a very bold look and a lot of linework, as well as very fine detail.
I think his name was K-something but I can't remember at all. ;_;

3 AnswersPhysics1 decade agoA small, discreet device to shave off a few volts?
I have a beautiful vintage electric metronome that looks and works great but has one significant problem. It was designed for a lower mains voltage than we have today and as a result, its counting is slightly fast. I'm looking for either the proper resistor value to drop 125 volts to 110 or a ready-made device for this purpose, something that could be spliced into the line cord. The 'nome only takes 4 watts so it shouldn't be much of a problem. :)

Is it the "in" thing now? I've noticed a lot of guys that wear almost exclusively black, white and shades of gray. The usual scenario is black jeans paired with a gray tee/hoodie w/ a white undershirt. I personally think it looks good... what about you?

3 AnswersCelebrities1 decade agoCPU fan works, but doesn't run?
I've recently been doing some diagnostic work on my Vaio VGC-LS1
http://reviews.cnet.com/Sony_VAIO_VGC_LS1/1707-311...
and the only real problem I have found so far is a CPU fan that does not appear to work.
I have SpeedFan 4.40 installed, which displays physical system stats and shows observed operating temperatures from various thermal sensors.
My dilemma is that the CPU fan, which first appeared to be dead, actually works when manually powered but will not operate when plugged into the fan socket. I purposely (and carefully) drove the core temps to see if the fan would be signaled on, but it was not. What should I be looking for now?
1 AnswerDesktops1 decade agoCan a fried CPU lead to.....?
"Operating System Not Found"?
I recently have been having a lot of problems with my ~5 year old VAIO all-in-one desktop. Had two BSDs less than a week apart and both resulted in the OS error. I got it professionally fixed the first time but the second time I took it in for repairs, no luck. I took it upon myself to begin gutting the comp and salvaging the HD and while I was doing so, I discovered that the CPU fan had quit and probably the CPU along with it.
.... what should I replace first?
