  • Where Can I Get Quotes for Copyrighting Song-Use in a Youtube Series?

    I am putting together a Youtube series, and want to use some songs in it. I need an estimate for pricing on (this would be from my own pocket, so keeping it minimal) five or six songs. If anyone knows how I go about getting quotes from...whomever I need to get quotes from. If anyone could give me a ballpark figure, here's a random example I'd appreciate an estimate on: A Ciara song, using a recording instead of the original (according to some articles I've read, this makes it cheaper). Say maybe I use one current song from her, and one from say...2004ish.

    Thanks in advance! No irrelevant, rude people with unhelpful comments, seeking attention please.

  • Where In The United States Can Bartenders Make the Best Tips?

    I'm starting with my question, then a small rant:

    Question:

    I don't have experience bar tending yet, and plan to get the most experience I can throughout the course of this summer. I was told Summer is a more relaxed season for bartenders (not making as much tips, but giving me time to get good speed and practice).

    What are some places in Canada and the States, but preferably the States (e.g. Florida or California), known for making good tips? My bartending-course instructor mentioned Cancun being a good place to bar tend. Do bartenders make good tips in Cancun?

    Finally, I know some resorts have staff accommodations. Do you know any resorts, both known for good tips and providing accommodations?

    Good tips: Upwards of one-to-two-hundred dollars on a typical night

    rant: If you are ignorant, rude, and/or looking to show off your knowledge of the subject by trying to make me feel stupid, please do not write on this post; No one is impressed by internet bullies. Most people reading your posts laugh at you, not with you. Stop coming on to this web site, pretending perfectly reasonable questions are stupid, and attacking people. Helpful and friendly comments only, please. Even if you don't have an answer, but have encouraging words, you're more welcome than a hater with vapid, tasteless comments. If this means no one answers on this site, fine; I can post somewhere else.

  • I Might Start an ECommerce Store. Is Korea a Good Source for Cheap Authentic Objects to Sell?

    I am moving to South Korea to teach. I have been advised by people who have been to Korea to shop wholesale there, because it's a great source for brand name things. I know a lot of it is fake (probably ninety-percent of it). I have watch Youtube videos about selling things on Ebay, and many of these guys say it's not worth it to sell fake stuff, risking the possibility of having the cops knocking on your door. Some Youtubers also said the major wholesale distributers don't advertise themselves online in the search engines. Any idea who I should talk to about reaching these distributors myself? I want to know if I'd profit enough by finding a source of authentic things by brands like Gucci etc., or would I be better off just selling thousands of little dirt-cheap gadgets for three or four dollars profit? While I'm living in Korea, should I make a site to cater to Korean customers, or should I make it for my address (Mom's address) home in Canada? Is it wise to use drop shipping either way? What are some wise objects to sell?

    Ok, this has been a lot of questions. I hope, for the first time, I actually get helpful answers from this site.

    A hopeful thanks in advance.

  • Are All Amine Groups in Amino Acid Backbones and PKA's NH2? or NH3?

    Are All Amine Groups in Amino Acid Backbones and PKA's NH2? or NH3? So, for instance, Lysine has and NH3+, I believe, so is it positive both below and above pH7? I don't see where it would ever be neutral...but I know some of them have amine groups (which is NH2...or are they NH3?) that go from neutral to positive (NH2 to NH3). Which amino acids do this, and when can I spot/determine which ones have NH2 in their side chains and backbones, versus which ones have the NH3 in their side chains and backbones?

    Two addition questions...if anyone wants to REALLY be a darling and help me out with these too (although all RIGHT answers are still appreciated):

    Why is NH3+ called NH3+? I can see why NH2+ has the plus sign...It's got a neutral charge when it's bonding with something, doesn't it? It would have three bonds happening, so...I'm not understanding the positive charge on it, unless I'm right and the people who wrote NH2+ on some of the web sites I've seen just made a typo.

    Also, calculating the P.I: How do you determine the value of M in m1+m2? What's the easiest way to calculate the isoelectric point? Does an easier equation exist? It seems like I remember seeing a Youtube video where they taught a much simpler equation for calculating the P.I. Something to do with net charges, I think. My professor taught us this "Find M1, then find M2, then do all this...foolishness". I found it hard to comprehend.

    Oh, a fourth question: What is the difference between PKA and P.I? Are they both the pH where the side chain is at zero-charge? Like, don't they basically both mean this at the end of the day? Congratulations in advance to whoever explains this to me in the best way for me to visualize and remember/apply comfortably to tests.

    Thanks guys

  • Why Does NH3 Have A Positive Charge In Some Amino Acids?

    I thought it was neutral. Why do these structures show it as being +?

  • Can someone explain the medicalization of sexuality Michel Foucault talks about in Layman's terms?

    I just don't understand what he's saying as I read book on the subject. Someone just give it to me in simple terms. Also, what exactly is his belief in terms of the discourse of sex? What does the word discourse even mean as he uses it? It is used a lot in sociology, but I feel as though it has a different meaning in this field than it does in the Oxford dictionary definititon which says something like "communication or debate". Actually, if someone just give me a plain-english review of Foucault's main thought regarding sexuality; children and sexuality, discourses of sexuality, and any additional important related topics, please help me here. I study for myself to the best of my ability, but with readings like Foucault's (complex and hard to follow) I just need some straight forward summaries to get my studying on track.

  • Can I Teach In Dubai With A Bachelor Of Arts?

    I will be graduating this May, God willing, with a Bachelor of Arts, majoring in sociology. I may or may not take TESL(only if necessary). TESL, for anybody who isn't farmiliar with the term, is teaching English as a second language. Do I absolutely need TESL, or will it just help my chances of being able to teach in Dubai? I want to teach there for a year. Once I graduate, having also taken the prerequisites for dental school, I plan to take the DAT in September and apply to dental schools for September 2014. While waiting, I'm looking for the best ways to save up as much money as I can, so I do not have to rack up to much of a student loan during dental school, so I was contemplating teaching over seas, as I have heard good things regarding pay potential from people who taught there. It's just that now, while I'm looking for more information on going out there, the contacts I know are not around or I don't have a phone number for them, so I'm coming here for advice. Hopefully someone with experience or friends and/or family who have taught over seas(It could be Dubai, Japan, wherever) and who could give me somewhat accurate salary advice. OF COURSE I'm not asking you to be like "I made what converts to twelve thousand dollars and thirty four cents Canadian in my first semester, personally". If you want to say so you can, but just a ballpark of what kind of salary and jobs I can expect with my credentials. If you don't have experience with it but have helpful information or advice for me, go ahead and respond anyhow. It will still be appreciated.

    Thanks in advance,

    Please no idiots writing rude, unhelpful posts looking for attention.

  • Is The Iphone Five Camera Any Good?

    It looks like I am getting the Iphone five. I feel relatively confident in my decision, however after I did some Googling and found that it has no zoom option, I said "um...kay what would I want this for?" I mean, for the price I paid for this thing, I better be happy when it arrives. That news about it having no zoom on the camera gives it a rocky start...What would even be the point in having a camera that doesn't zoom? I plan to take pictures. I'm a yound woman, you know, I go to concerts, parties, church events, things where zoom is appreciated. Can someone point out the benefits of what I just spent a lot of money on, and point out why I'm going to be happy with this decision? 'Cause right now I'm like...Twenty dollar cameras have zoom. Why doesn't the Iphone five have it? It's not even that I bought it just for the camera, but...Does it at least zoom for video? How well does the battery last? Make me glad I bought this somebody! I also like to Skype with my boyfriend. Hopefully I at least get good picture etc. with the video. I shouldn't have to say "Hopefully at least" anything, really.

  • My Mac Isn't Loading. Apple Screen Followed By Folder With Question Mark?

    I have an Apple Mac laptop from 2007. I read many posts of other people who've gotten the same screen. The message boards all say hold the option button and it should work; The poster posts a day or two later saying "Thanks, I held the option button and it worked!". Well I went ahead and tried it and got a screen with saying HD something, with an arrow underneath. I clicked it and it simply took me back to the same error screen it has been showing(the Apple folowed by either a flashing folder with a question mark in it or the circle with the diagnal line through it like "No Parking" signs)

  • Why Does My Kodak EasyShare C1530 Turn Off When Connected To The Computer?

    I just bought this camera second hand, and it seems to be in fine condition. I plugged it into my mac and it recognized the camera and installed Kodac SOMEthing and Easy Share something. However when I want to put pictures and videos onto my mac it didn't show an option to do so(none I could find anyway). I disconnected it from the mac and reconnected it; The mac says the camera is not connected and the camera itself shuts off. How do I fix this? It's not that the battery gave out in the camera or anything because when I disconnect it from the computer it immediately turns back on just fine. The instruction manual didn't come with it so...Anybody who has it, a solution will be appreciate it. Also, where there is no sound when I play my videos back on the camera, I'm assuming the sound only plays when I play the video on the computer. Am I right with this assumption?

  • Chemistry Homework:Explain In Simple English What Resonance Is Please!?

    The Wikipedia Definitions just do not clarify enough for me to understand, I guess, because I'm still trying to get an answer here...Is it just a diagram of any molecule with more than two atoms? I think one of the chemistry sites said you do resonance structures when you cannot do Lewis stuctures; When would that be? Can Lewis structures have more the two atoms in it? I thought they could. I just don't understand; Like, I'm trying to picture a situation in which you need to draw resonance structure. From what I saw, they look like the diagrams I draw in Organic Chemistry. Am I right? Do, like, Carbon chains for instance count as resonance structures? What are some examples of compounds who need resonance structures? What IS resonance? I still haven't found an upfront, simple-English, satisfactory definition of the word itself, let alone why the structures are built the way they are.

  • How Much Is Next-Day Shipping US to Canada?

    I looked at USPS for their International Express Plus option (one to three days delivery), but they don't show the prices for some reason. On USPS' site it has the option to "Calculate Shipping Cost" and makes you fill out all of the information for the initial place and the destination, and when you go to hit submit or whatever it sends you back to the page saying you need to fill in all the required fields first. Well I reviewed and reviewed what I filled in and I definitely didn't exclude anything so I do not know what the site's going on about. Does anyone know the rates? It's only from Bangor Maine to Dartmouth NS. I have things shipped to a hotel I stay in in Bangor whenever I shop there and they ship it to me(things that cannot be delivered to Canada from some Ebay sellers etc.). It's about a six hour drive to the border so...Anyways, this time I need the hotel to ship it in one or two days. I'm looking to see my options on which shipping company has the fastest and cheapest carrier who will get me these things before Christmas. They should be arriving at the hotel around the twentieth.

    Thanks in advance...And yes, I probably could ask my family, being most of them work for the post office, but it's late and I was just trying to figure this out for tonight. I work all day during the day and don't have much time to price shop.
