  • please help me unravel a periodic table problem?

    as i recall it from high school days, the lanthanide and actinide series were pulled off from the rest of the table implying their properties were unlike those in the rest of the chart (and i found recent periodic tables also show this) - but i also found periodic tables where the lanthanide and actinide series were vertically grouped with elements above them - example - vertical group 4 - Ti/Zr/Hf/Rf/Ce/Th - which is more correct and why?

  • would you do a favor for me?

    it is obvious to me that krazy ray / green power / bill o potato head / kent hovind are the same person with multiple accounts - evidence - all post youtube links ending with

    BC OF YOU?????????????????????????

    when i informed one of them of this, they ALL soon after blocked me, so i could not see their questions and subsequently report them for multiple accounts - krazy ray has a 23% best answers - he has obviously been self-voting multiple times - how does someone whose answer is always

    BC OF YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    score a 23% best answers? inconceivable!

    obviously NONE of him will see this, unless he has more multiple accounts

    now for the favor - could you please report this abuse to yahoo as i have been blocked and cannot do so?

  • can i trust anything the apostate paul says?

    in 1 cor 9:20-22 paul said "20 To the Jews I became like a Jew, to win the Jews. To those under the law I became like one under the law (though I myself am not under the law), so as to win those under the law. 21 To those not having the law I became like one not having the law (though I am not free from God’s law but am under Christ’s law), so as to win those not having the law. 22 To the weak I became weak, to win the weak. I have become all things to all people so that by all possible means I might save some." - don't just tell me my interpretation is WRONG -show me an alternative interpretation - i contend that paul is not only lying - he brags of it - i contend that paul was the first identity thief - i contend that paul is saying "the end justifies the means" and thus predated communism by 2000 years - show me how and why my interpretation is wrong

  • victim/rescuer trap - how can i avoid it in the future?

    hard lesson learned for me - or maybe not - i decided to break up with a lady because she's stuck in a victim mentality - there is nothing i can really do to help her - and believe me - i have tried - unfortunately, she pushes away those (like me) who will bend over backwards to try to help her - and that will leave those who wish to manipulate her and take advantage to continue to do so - it's sad, but she is the only one who can help herself, and i guess being a victim somehow is comfortable for her - now about the maybe not - probably if someone else comes a long needing rescuing, i might likely fall back into the same trap - sure it's easy to say "be stronger" or "learn and move on" but no so easy to do - any advice would be helpful as to HOW

  • does yahoo answers have the power to prevent a crime?

    let's say someone (account since deleted) posted a detailed question describing the method he was going to use to sexually assault his teacher - is yahoo's responsibility only limited to deleting the account, or do they have the power to investigate the email behind the screen name, identify the ip#, notify local police, and potentially prevent the crime? - yes, it's possible that it was a fraud or a troll, but this was too detailed to ignore

  • my last name is Senate ...?

    somewhere, i'm guessing at ellis island, our original family name became americanized to "senate" - are there any other "senate"s out there who might know? - or maybe even a "sennett"? - are those original ellis island records lost? - can anyone help em recover what MIGHT be our original family name? we suspect it might have been "senitzky" or a variant close to it but we don't know for sure - tia

  • if the bible is inerrant please explain?

    noah being 600 years old when he built a giant boat - yet bone density studies of our ancestors indicate they frequently died before 15 and those that survived usually made it to 60-70 - please do not just make a claim - please back it up scientifically - if you say it was 600 months not years, then how is it that the god that invented time cannot tell time? - if you say the sun moved faster then - how come tycho brae, newton, copernicus and einstein never measured such a thing? - please back it up scientifically

  • do cops really taste the white powder?

    i see this a lot on cop shows, and i know a lot of it is fiction - do real cops really do this? - with today's highly potent drugs, wouldn't this potentially start a cop onto being an addict? and how do you distinguish one white powder from another? - do you have some sort of mini-drug-test-lab in your cop cars? or do you wait till you take it down to teh station to test it? thanks in advance

  • What more can I do to help her?

    I'm 54 - She's 62 - shocked yet? - yeah, we have problems too - we live in the same building in a multi-building gated community for seniors - the guy who owns the apartment where she is staying hasn't been paying his condo fees, and is now in an assisted living facility, and hasn't got long to live - so she is having trouble like needing money for groceries (i've lent her money in the past and she always pays it back) because of his failure to pay, she is not allowed access to our clubhouse building and facilities - I saw her getting hassled by a security guard about entry, so i signed her in as my guest - she has applications open at other buildings, and i've told her i'm happy to help her in any way i can, but i can't give her a place to stay - we have no room - my mom, 92, also lives here - i think i'm doing as much as i can, but i feel frustrated that i can't help ore do more - we're good friends - she talks a lot - you might say she's a chatty cathy - and i keep quiet most of the time - so in that and other ways we're rather compatible 0 can i do more? any ideas? thanks in advance

  • So, a sort of inappropriate question was asked, i repsonded in the same style ...?

    The questioner said, he was an 18 year old virgin, frequent watcher of p0rn, and said, "I just want p****." My response was, "If all you want is p****, go find a hooker." for this I received a 10 point violation. Since then, the question was deleted for being inappropriate. Will I get my 10 points back? I also appealed. will I lose another 10 points for the question being deleted/ I know none of the answerers are yahoo Support. I just want your opinions. this is the first question I've ever asked here.
