Did Tolkien develop an Orc character so that more background is known?
I know that orcs are misshapen elves but is there more? Was there an Orc that turned to the "force" rather than stay in the dark side?
3 AnswersBooks & Authors7 years agowhat is wrong my truck? The engine wants to stall when I hit the gas from a dead stop?
Might it be the timing belt? the truck has 100k miles on it. I don't think its a sparkplug because it idles ok. Occasionally it will shake when idling but the symptoms are more pronounced under acceleration.
Thank you.

I use mizuno wave runners and that makes it feel better. Stretching helps but sometimes the pain comes anyway. The tendon on the outside of my foot snaps when my foot is sore.

2 AnswersRunning8 years agoHow do I get a solar panel to power a waterfall so that the flow rate is about 10-20gal/min?
My plan is to get a solar panel and run that into an inverter that will be connected to a charger. The charger will then power a lead acid battery. The water pump I have right now runs on 120v (plugged in). Is a 45 watt panel enough to generate enough power to achieve what I want?
Thank you
3 AnswersGreen Living8 years agoHow do I wire a solar panel to a lead acid battery to charge it?

30 AnswersReligion & Spirituality1 decade agois it right to put US citizens' needs above the needs of people from the rest of the world?
I dont hate america so I hope to not get answers that would imply that. I just think that sometimes it seems that the US puts its needs ahead all other countries. Not always and yes I do realize that the US is a major contributor of foreign aid.
as a specific example I put forth all the conflicts for oil. the US fights fervently for oil but it does not fight for the people in Darfur who have nothing to offer except themselves.
I think that people in the US should think of people of other places as equal to themselves.

1 AnswerBiology1 decade agoDoes anyone think that putting up a film between then Earth and the Sun is a solid solution to global warming?
recently a report on NPR mentioned that a researcher at the University of Arizona is working on the feasibility of puting a screen between the Earth and the Sun to shade the Earth and prevent global warming. i think this is the wrong approach because this solution does not address the cause of global warming. lets say that in this project is undertaken and succeeds some 50 years from now, would people care to reduce carbon dioxide emissions? it just seems like this solution is the path of least resistance. by the way, NASA has decided to fund this research. I have included a link that revealsmore about this project http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2006/11/06110...
8 AnswersAstronomy & Space1 decade agohow would a human-chimpanzee hybrid be treated by society?
I have read about the possibilty of a human-chimp hybrid being born in a zoo in the US in the first half of the 20th centruy. there was a discovery channel thing on a chimp that closely resembled humans because it could walk upright. he was proven not to be a hybird. the rumored hybrid of the early 20th century was destroyed, allegedly. would humans respect a hybrid life as much as full human.
5 AnswersBiology1 decade agohow did early jet fighters fly stably if their wings were too short to counteract the engine's torque?
propleller aircraft have long wings that resistant the spin that an engine would generate. if turbine engines spin and if jet airplanes have smaller wings to help them go faster, how do they not spin why flying? single jet planes only. I dont think that pilot influence would be a satisfying answer.
