Need Spanish resources to write a short paper on transportation in Latin America.?
For my Spanish class I have to write a 500 word short essay on a topic of my choice based on 3 different resources from the internet. I chose to write about transportation, and I have an article on it from CNN in Spanish but the other two sources have to be different, like an interview and an essay or something like that. Problem is, I have no idea where to find information about transportation in Latin American countries that isn't in article form. Help!

2 AnswersFashion & Accessories6 years agoI want to be one of the first on Mars, is it possible and how?
Sure, I may not do it, but it s worth a shot, right? First of all, am I too young to be of age once we create a rocket that can take humans to mars? I m a sophomore in high school right now. Second of all, what kinds of college and career choices would I make to become part of the first humans on Mars? I m mostly just curious, but it seems like a relatively cool dream. Astronauts, anyone?

This is my first real speaker system so I don t know if this is normal or not, but I would ve thought the subwoofer would be making more noise or punchiness when I listen to dubstep or other bass-heavy music. It sits under my desk and even at full volume I can t really hear it. Is it faulty or are my expectations faulty?
1 AnswerMusic & Music Players6 years agoHigh end custom computer suddenly running slow?
About 1-2 months ago I built a computer (i7 4790k, GTX 770, 16GB Corsair Platinum RAM, WD Black 1.5TB, GIGABYTE Z97X-UD5H, Win 8.1 OEM) and just recently I've been experiencing it slowing down considerable. My internet is fine, but load times have increased drastically, and videos have started to take forever to load, Also, I can sometimes load into gamed, but multiplayer will load forever so it is unplayable. I have the latest GeForce driver, but my mobo does not have one of its own. Are there any other drivers I need? Also, my free AVG protection expired a couple days ago and I still need to pick a paid one up, but I have not visited any "shady" sights. Could it still be virus-oriented? Or is something software-related outdated? I have not defragged my hdd yet because it takes a very long time and I haven't had that time yet. Help?
4 AnswersDesktops7 years agoSometimes it burns when I pee?
Maybe once every few months when I pee there will be an intense burning sensation (it doesn't bring me to tears but it burns) and it will stop after a few seconds while I am still peeing, not when I stop peeing. I am a teenage boy and I have never engaged in intercourse. This may be a premature conclusion, but could I have an STD? There is no history in my family as far as I know. Help?
2 AnswersInfectious Diseases7 years agoWhat acoustic guitar to buy?
So I've been playing guitar for a little while, but I've been borrowing my dad's, and have to ask him every time if he wants to use it before I take it. I've been saving up for a little while and want to buy my own guitar, but I have no idea what to buy or what price range to look at. The only guitar brand I know is Gibson, and even that is only because I saw one sell for $50,000 on Pawn Stars. Unfortunately I don't have that kind of money, but anything up to $200 or $300 or so seems reasonable, I guess. Links are appreciated. Thanks!

2 AnswersDesktops7 years agoDubstep earbuds?
So I listen to a lot of bass-heavy dubstep and the like, and would like a more low-profile way of listening to it in good quality without having to buy buy big clunky headphones. I have not done a huge amount of research on earbud quality and am leaving that up to the answerers, but I have a few criteria that are important to me:
-Obviously good sound quality/bass quality and a good range of sound
-Preferably under or around $80
-Old style of bud (this means not the newer round bud that seems to never seem to stay in my ear for more than 30 seconds, but the older ear-shaped ones, if you know what I am talking about)
Links appreciated, thanks!
3 AnswersMusic & Music Players7 years agoHelp choosing good AEG?
I'm a newer airsoft player and I want a good beginner's airsoft gun that is customizable, but not too complicated to use. I have researched a lot of options and narrowed them down to a few but I am really not experienced enough to know which ones are the best. Here are the links:

http://www.airsoftgi.com/product_info.php?products...
Obviously I would like to get the cheapest one, but not if it sacrifices too much quality, and if you have another recommendation feel free to say it, but it needs to be black and fire under 400 FPS.
Also, is this a good choice for a pistol?

I would rather have a spring than a gas as gas is a hassle to refill and buy.
HELP! Thanks!
3 AnswersOther - Outdoor Recreation7 years agoHelp with finding a good airsoft gun...?
So I'm pretty new to the sport of airsoft and I have yet to purchase my own weapon. I live near both an indoor CQC arena and an outdoor, mid-range field. I don't have the money for two guns yet and would like one that is fairly customizable, yet not too exotic for a beginner (I want a lot of rails, but good internals as I am not familiar with modding inside airsoft guns). The FPS must be around 330 for .20 G BBs at the and 300 for .25 BBs at the arena. I don't know if these speeds can work for mid-distance combat too, so a little explanation on that would be nice. I have looked at many SIG 552/553 , but they all seem to be too inaccurate at longer ranges and the M4s seem too clunky for CQC (also I would like to be unique if possible). Help! P.S. It would be nice if you could post links, and also if the gun is available at airsoftgi as I will be buying my gear and apparel there and they offer deals on some orders. I don't know if all of my desires can be met, but I hope at least the essentials can be. Thanks!
1 AnswerOther - Outdoor Recreation7 years agoMore open-world or post-apocalyptic games to play?
Alright, so I am a huge fan of the genres listed above (obviously). The problem is that I have played so many of them that I can't think of any others. Metro, Elder scrolls, STALKER, DayZ, Assassin's Creed, GTA, FTL, Minecraft (along with FTB and Tekkit), Dishonored, Far Cry, Just Cause, Fallout, Contagion, ArmA, and L4D are most of the series' I can think of right now. I need my desire for open world games to be quenched, and preferably not with older games. I'm going to get Thief and Star Citizen, too. On a side note, I don't really want to play Rust, Saints Row, or 7D2D as well as Starbound as they are too similar to other games I have played.

2 AnswersSoftware8 years agoAlmost ran myself out?
Alright, let's get this out of the way: I'm not some 8-year-old obese kid who ran down the block and fainted. I consider myself pretty fit, been playing soccer my whole life, and I also love to run. I'm gonna try out for my school track team next year and I'm currently training for it. The difference with today's run was that I ran a few miles without walking or stopping, whereas I usually run more but walk every now and then when I get too tired. It's about 90 degrees outside, and not getting any cooler. My symptoms are/were: shaking and numb hands, seeing spots, and the classic signs of dehydration. I have been drinking lots of water, balling up my hands and then unballing them, focusing on one object, and I took a cold shower. Anything else I can do so that next time I run this won't happen? Thanks!
4 AnswersRunning8 years agoWhich airsoft gun should I choose?
I already have the gear picked out - black clothes with OD accessories (the mask, gloves, belt, pads, etc.) - but I am torn between two guns. I have been into paintball for a while and have just started trying airsoft, and I'm pretty good, so I've decided to go for mid-ish level AEGs (gas would be too much maintenance). The only arena close to me is a CQC arena, however later I'd like to try larger outdoor arenas in other places. I did not write this question to brag on the internet, that would be stupid, but I'm being honest when I say I'm a "pretty damn good shot" according to others. That's why I am kind of leaning towards the gun with the larger stock, but the CQC arena would be perfect for a compact gun like the P90, which tears me apart.
Here are the links:

If you have other suggestions, feel free to add links, but I'm ordering everything off arrattle.com so preferably find an AEG on that site. Thanks!
3 AnswersOther - Outdoor Recreation8 years agoNeed harder dubstep to listen to?
Okay, so I've been listening to dubstep ever since Mt. Eden Dubstep's Sierra Leone. I now can't go a couple days without dubstep without getting a headache. I'm literally addicted to dubstep. So basically, I've been listening to so much that songs like Doomsday just seem regular, not soft, but not as hard of a drop as it used to sound. I Can't Stop, Kill the Noise, Sierra Leone, etc. just sound soft to me now. I've been having to resort to songs like Bowser's Castle just to get that good feeling in my ears and my head, but the problem is that I hate dirty dubstep. Can't stand it. So my question is: what are the dubstep songs that have the hardest drops you guys know of, but aren't that dirty and preferably aren't dirty at all? PLEASE! I'll listen to everybody's answer and be thankful to them all, but I can again only choose one of them as the best one. THANKS!
P.S. I don't need anyone giving an answer like "dubstep sucks" or anything of the sort, liking songs is an opinion and a lot of people happen to like dubstep. You don't have to listen to it if you don't want to, so get over what other people are into.
