Often it takes ten minutes or more to load a page while that never happened with the old format.

Everything is still working. Manual, however is missing from this seven-year old fridge. Kenmore model: 10664932401; no ice maker; no water dispenser. Any ideas at why; how to be home fixed?

We supposedly have freedom of religion and freedom from the formation of a national (or state) religion. The founders understood that religion was vital to western liberalism and well understood the downside to national religions. France required Roman Catholicism to work for the government, Russia required the Orthodox Catholic religion. England required the Church of England religion. Nazi Germany required Nazi Party membership (all other labor unions were banned) for government work such as postal carrier and railroad worker. Many joined these religions and the Nazi Party (actually the National Socialist German Workers Party) so they could get a good job even if they had no real beliefs/sympathy for them.

How is requiring a person to join a union, in the case of the federal government a government approved union, any different? I felt like such a hypocrite joining the postal carriers union so I could work as a geologist for the US Forest Service when they were at odds with what I believed. I seriously considered offering to take a big pay and benefit cut but knew that offer would just result in my not being hired. Nobody should be forced by government to be extorted in order to get a job. I think the forefathers missed one.

Iran had a democratic government post Shah until the Ayatollah became paramount a few months after the Shah went into exile but the Ayatollah soon formed a new dictatorship and a bloodbath followed. Iran had been a big supporter of peaceful relations with all neighbors and was one of the first governments to recognize Israel but was replaced with a pariah state. Iran was a US ally then replaced by a religious-fanatic hatred of the USA. It seems terribly familiar when viewing current events in Egypt.

a dark grey crust (likely oxidation) to form on a stainless steel sauce pan?

The pan has never been used except to boil water and the lid is always on except when adding/deleting water.

Water is from a well and has passed the normal tests (bacteria and clarity).

Reservoir is basaltic in nature so likely that the water is heavily mineralized.

I don't believe it is dangerous in any way - just curious.

Solar Boost 50 Controller, MagnaSine system, inverter/battery/charge settings appear to be correct.

Has done since batteries were new several years ago.

Just today, it has become impossible to track a question by a contact/friend (or whatever it is called) until it goes to a vote because only page one of a person's answers can be displayed. Anyone one know what is happening? Did Yahoo! just go bankrupt or something?

black people? Well, that illogic WAS used against then President Bush, now wasn't it?

Confederate officer makes a deal with the devil - provide a virgin to mate with devil to make the antichrist and history is changed - the Confederates win. Switch to 20th century and a bunch of failures. A ghost busters like team of paranormal researchers investigate the hotel that the Confederate officer is based at interactv with all the ghosts of the officer's failures. What the heck is this movie called? Saw it on cable TV but not the whole thing.

Pollution has already been blamed for global warming so that one isn't possible and I doubt anyone wants to pollute more to keep the world from continuing to cool off.

will all the dire predictions simply run in reverse? Will the hysteria go away or will the global warming alarmists simply claim mankind is the cause of global cooling?

Usually cited are climatologists, meteorologists, and biologists. As a multiple degree holding meteorologist, I can state with certainty that we are not at all experts nor are climatologists. Both disciplines look at the short term. Meteorologists are primarily there to forecast weather and climatologists supply us with statistical weather data to aid this endeavor. Climatology deals with 30-40 year averages and, for all practical purposes, climatological data did not exist prior to the late 1800s. Biologists focus on the narrow area of life. The experts are geologists (especially paleontologists), geophysicists, and astrophysicists. Geologists look at the long term (called geologic time scales) and study the Earth as a whole. Geophysicists study how energy affects the Earth (heat budget, atmospheric heat exchange, etc). Astrophysicists study is similar but based on all heavenly bodies such as our heat source (the Sun). Geologists have been debating the current global climate change since at least the 70s.as have geophysicists. These people, nor the closest thing that comes to a consensus on global warming/climate change, are rarely if ever cited in the media or yahoo! Answers. Instead, we get short-term disciplines and politicized dribble.

My guess is that their findings are politically incorrect in many cases because the consensus is that mankind did not cause global warming, the influence of man on the climate is unknown and could vary from non-significant to significant (which isn't in the agenda) and that changes in the sun temperature is the primary driver of climate change. They also say we are in an interglacial period of the ice ages and that temperatures now are cooler then throughout most of the Earth's history (mankind's existence is a very small portion of the Earth's history). My take is that it just doesn't fit the agenda of lowering US economic power and increasing that of world government bodies (as for the media) and that the average age on Yahoo! Answers is lower then college age. However, that is just my opinion and i'd like to hear what others think are the reasons.

His appeal for Republicans to put politics aside is unusual to say the least since he is basically asking them to vote against his political-based stimulus plan designed to buy votes rather then help the economy.

that Putin's fascists cannot be trusted?

Would it be so hard to build an offshore platform to thaw frozen gas from dependable sources like Saudi Arabia where it can then be safely piped inland? Would it not be a reasonable gamble to build a pipeline from Saudi Arabia through Israel, Lebanon, and Turkey? Would it not make sense to ensure the independence of Georgia so the fascists cannot control that pipeline gas source?

Europe needs to stop hallucinating and join up with the real world.

What would America do if Mexican terrorists won the border elections then became independent and started lobbing rockets into Texas?

What would France do if the Basque region became independent and started lobbing rockets into France?

What would Russia do if Chechnya started lobbing rockets into Russia (oh, never mind)?

What would China do if Tibet started lobbing rockets into China?

What would Syria do if Lebanese rebels started lobbing rockets into Syria?

Etc, etc, etc.

I'm getting tired of it wanting me to change Obama to ABM (although it might fit :) ).
