Know any Asian ghosts, spirits, or spooks with names that begin with the letter Q?
I need it for my homework. Please HELP!
It has to be from Asian lore and it doesn't have to necessarily be a ghost, but as long as it's commonly viewed as something scary or ominous. And its name has to start with the letter Q. Know any?
Ghosts or evil spirits are preferable.
4 AnswersMythology & Folklore1 decade agoWhat is the difference between an innuendo and an euphemism?
Cuz I think they're quite similar, but they're different somehow. I mean you use innuendoes to imply something without actually saying it right? But isn't that what Euphemisms are for?
I need this explained to me... I'm so confused.
And also could you guys also state some innuendo examples. I heard somewhere that the ever so popular "That's What She Said" phrase is an innuendo. Can someone also explain as to why that is?
6 AnswersWords & Wordplay1 decade agoWould spray painting a violin affect its sound?
I'm painting a friend's classical violin. And I plan to use metallic spray paint. Three colors, meaning three layers of paint. So, will that affect the sound at all?
Cuz I still want it to function like a normal violin. It still has to sound good. Cuz I think my violinist friend is joining an orchestra. I'm not going to paint it whole though. Just a couple of silver leaves and gold things... But it's still going to be a huge, epic design. And I'm not going to apply really the paint thickly.

1 AnswerSmall Business1 decade agoWhat is the relation of the angle and distance of a projectile?
I have to make a math and physics presentation and I still need a little bit more info. So question, what is the relation of the angle and distance of a projectile? (or is it called a trajectory?) There are more questions below. Please answer. Thanks...
Here's the demo. I take a garden hose. I turn it on. Probably full blast. Then the angle will determine the distance the water will travel. What is this demonstration called? cuz I'm not really sure...
So basically I have to be able to explain the physics and math of it better. Problem is I don't know where to begin. Is there a formula to predict the outcome? or something? And can I demonstrate it better? And I think I should use something else besides a hose. What else could illustrate that better? I have to explain the physics very simply and easily. Please help! this is really important. If you can't help please refer a website that could help me in my plight. Thanks! :)

3 AnswersPhysics1 decade agoMath and Physics projects?
Do you guys know any projects that combines math and physics that I could try? I have to be able to illustrate or demonstrate it, then do the math... I have to explain why that happened using math or use math to predict an outcome. Use laws and formulas and stuff. I don't have any equipment except common household items... So if I have to build something please leave instructions or a website that has that kind of information.
I'm really begging for answers here, so please don't leave answers telling me to look it up on google. Google isn't that helpful if I don't know specifically what to look for. Oh, and I only have like a day to prepare it and solve it so this project has to be easy and must be explained with no loose ends... So, please help! Thanks in advance to the really helpful peeps that will answer this...

It's all in the title... I need to give a report on how there can't be a sixth platonic solid... and I need images to show my teachers. No problem in getting pics of the 5 platonic solids. I need something to show why there can't be a sixth.
and also it'd be great if anyone could say what's the point of the 5 platonic solids. Why bother knowing about them?

5 AnswersMusic & Music Players1 decade agoHow Mortifying would it be to see the Fall Out Boy concert with your parents?
Ok! We're going to the FOB concert! Hey Monday's gonna be there too! Life is good! Then someone drops an atomic bomb... your parents have to come! Both of them! And they're so not cool and do not understand rock music or you and criticize rockers just for having long hair and tatoos and shirts WITHOUT collars. Sometimes they take you by the shoulders and say, "Don't ever ever ever by like them!" But it doesn't end there... "Ever ever ever ever... or else... tsk tsk tsk" (out-loud and in public.) They also suddenly grab your back and straighten you out cuz they say you look like a LOSER!!! they also make you feel like crap with intention to make you a better person - constructive but incredibly mean criticism.
So, question is... How mortifying is it to see a FOB concert with your paents? From a scale of 1 to 10.
Also, can't really say no. It's mum's birthday. she wants to go cuz it's her birthday and she wants us to be happy. not her. us. very thoughtful. kinda feel bad about being ungrateful. They're paying for the concert too... but still... it's embarrassing to be with your parents at a rock concert. They want to watch over me and I'm not even 16 anymore...
...just realized another level of miserable in my life.

2 AnswersOther - Entertainment1 decade agoHow much does it cost to record a demo cd?
Ok, so I'm in a band called Sure Kid Sure and we want to make a demo CD. The quality doesn't have to be really high, but it should still sound clear enough. Maybe medium quality. So how much does recording a demo cost? We were thinking of recording at least 4 songs...
And, oh yeah, we don't have much money so were looking for a nice cheap alternative besides recording with a computer. So far we've been recording with a mini DV video camera it's a bit clear but it still sounds fuzzy. Listen to our first recording here on our myspace: http://www.myspace.com/surekidsure !!! Leave a comment about our song too (don't comment about our song if you're not in to rock/techno type music like Metro Station).
