I live in Indiana. Almost every house I have ever seen in Indiana seems to have rain gutters on it. But the further I drive south Such as through Kentucky, or Tennesee, on south all the way to the Gulf Coast it seems that it is less likely that I will see that houses have gutters installed.

The question is: Can you think of any Actual reason why these houses, neighborhoods, communities, etc do NOT have Rain gutters Installed?

The following paragraph was inside a news article on Yahoo today.

"Like the much larger, supermassive black holes found at galaxy centers, stellar-mass black holes have such powerful gravity fields that not even light can escape them. Astronomers estimate their mass by measuring their gas emissions and the gravitational effect on the stars they orbit."

I understand how they would have a gravitational effect on the stars they orbit and even other bodies.

But how can GAS escape if the gravitational field is so powerfull that not even light can escape?

This does not make any sense at all.

I understand perfectly how to use the controls and set my TV up. It is not a problem with the TINT adjustment or any other control.

We can be watching a Show and all of a sudden the picture clicks to either a Greenish tint or a Yellow tint. (It used to be more Yellow, but now is Green.

If the KIDS walk across the floor, it is more likely to switch back and forth between perfect and all YELLOW/GREEN.

It is not a cable problem because it does is on DISH and on antenna. EVEN the TV setup Menus will come up tinted.

The TV is about 15 years old or so and is a 27" CRT. I was hoping to get another year out of it before going digital.

I TAPPED with the pads of my fingers on the back of the case and it flickered between perfect and Green.

What is the problem and how can I fix it without spending a ton of cash?

Thanks

My Kids are doing model building for 4 H. Every time we sit down to do more painting work, we have to fight for hours getting the paint bottles open. We have thrown away too much paint because we NEVER can get it open. ANd the kids don't want to finish the projects becaus it is no fun anymore because of the hassle. HELP Please.

I know if you have a VIDEO Ipod you can download shows and watch the later. I know that Desperate housewives is one of the shows that you can playback with the video Ipod. BUT, I don't have and can not afford to get one. I could pay the $1.99 fee for the video if anyone knew of a way to watch it.

Thanks...

My 8 year old Son told his little 6 year old brother and little 4 year old sister about Santa Claus. He said the Santa had a HUGE toy workshop at the North Pole, a Sleigh full of toys, and eight tiny reindeer.

He said that if they are not good, Santa will not bring them any presents, but instead will fill their stockings full of coal.

He said that Santa flys around the world one One night, Christmas Eve, and comes down the chimney to get it. He showed them several TV shows on TV to prove it including Santa Clause is Coming to Town. We even got on the internet and logged on to Norad's Santa Tracking Web site. His proof was unmistakable.

He held their Hand as he led them to sit on Santas lap at the Childrens Museum (a Place you go to learn). Past Actions Proved he was real, because he left presents under the tree before.

He said DAD and MOM Both had told him about Santa Claus.

SO.

IS my 8 Year Old son lying when he tells about Santa Claus and his sleigh full of toys?

Again:

If My 8 Year Old Son Tells my 6 year son that SANTA CLAUS CAME and left Presents under the tree, IS HE LYING if He Truly believes what he is saying??
