HOW and WHY is earth so perfect? Biologically and cosmologically...Is it God?
It's absolutely insane how perfectly the universe supports life on earth? Why?
We are a unique species on a lone planet among billions of galaxies, held down by gravity, rotating at literally 1,040 mph in a universe with no end - around a sun at the exact perfect distance, tilt, and revolution, creating temperature and seasons to sustain organic life. The seasons support ecosystem cycles, rain, oxygen, food, supporting the life of humans and animals, which then support each other. The moon creates waves, stabilizes rotation and magnetic field, providing light when dark. There are literally HUNDREDS of dials on our earth of organic chemicals, airborne materials, and reactions that are tuned perfectly specifically for life.
Without these perfect astrological facts and dials, we would all be extinct. Our ridiculously complicated human body feeds off the result of these facts; water, food, and oxygen. Our skin even has protection against the perfect UV levels (due to the distance to the sun) which reacts to produce vitamin D. Plants also survive through this very specific wavelength of UV energy through photosynthesis to produce oxygen.
Why? Why is everything is perfectly tuned? Why does everything support itself so flawlessly, originating from the cosmological facts? How could it be, among billions of galaxies, that our moon, sun, and earth sustain life so perfectly? We are so alone, yet so complicated/perfect, in the middle of NOWHERE in our universe. Could it be God? The chances of a planet sustain life like earth cannot possibly be repeated.
8 AnswersReligion & Spirituality8 years agoO-Chem help! Esterficiation?
Alright so I had a question that I'm stuck on. It says to draw the structure ( I only need the name)
"if water is added to a mixture containing only acetic anhyride and a drop of concentrated H2SO4. Note: there is NO salicylic acid present"
I'm well aware of the reaction with salicylic acid present, but how does these reactants react by themselves? I think I'm over thinking this one...
Please help. Best answer is an immediate 10 points.
1 AnswerChemistry9 years ago97' Camry jerks when I let off gas in 1st and 2nd. Help Please?
Hey guys. I just recently bought a 1997 Camry 5 speed V6. The car is great overall but I've noticed lately that the car jerks when I completely let off the gas in first or second gear.
It also jerks when you put more than just a little bit of gas in first or second gear once you've let off. It doesn't have this problem in 3rd or 4th though at all. What could the problem be? If you're knowledgeable please help, 10 points.

3 AnswersSingles & Dating9 years agoPlease help: How does an Iron wire react in these solutions?
Hey everybody, thanks for helping
I'm asked to describe and/or predict what will happen when you soak an Iron wire into copper(II) sulfate solution, and then soak a different Iron wire into cobalt(I) chloride solution
A bonus question is to explain what will happen if a gold wedding ring was placed in copper(II) sulfate solution. I remember someone saying that no reaction would occur here...
What would I expect to happen, and if you have time, why?
Thank you! 10 points to best answer
1 AnswerChemistry9 years agoWhats worth it? 05 Acura TL or 05 Volvo s60 T5?
I need some help deciding between the two...There are two big things I want out of a car, acceleration and reliability. And perhaps the ability to modify the performance. I have an understanding that these two side by side are pretty similar in acceleration, price, and gas mileage. Both are better when offered in manual obviously, which is what im looking for....
Which will be the best bang for the buck? I've always loved volvo, but the reliability of the acura really has leaning towards the acura. Also I would assume that the volvo will cost more to insure since its the second fastest turbo s60 next to the R. They are both priced pretty similar, but the volvo will have better torque at lower rpm... Both have damn good looks, and amazing things to offer! Are these two just distinguished by preference or what? What do you guys think??
2 AnswersBuying & Selling1 decade agoAre walmart's electronic products authentic?
I was wanting to buy some monster turbine headphones, and usually they are around 140. But since I looked at walmarts website, they were 106 dollars. Usually really cheap headphones(especially monster beats and turbines) are fakes and are sold for less money to get people to buy them. How is walmarts price so low? The headphones should be authentic, right?...

3 AnswersPsychology1 decade agoRed flags for a used snowboard?
I am looking at buying a used snowboard for pretty cheap, because there is no way I wanna buy a new one. I'm a heavy heavy longboarder and this is my second season snowboarding and I'm in love, so I don't want crap, but not something that is top of the line quite yet either....
And the one I have now is far too narrow, and short. So I was wondering what the warning signs of buying a used board?
Obviously it'll have some wear and tear, but I don't want to figure out in the future that it has damage that will require a costly repair in order to keep it functional. For example I'm looking at a burton clash w/ bindings for 90 bucks....Red flags I need to look for?? Suggestions in general? And don't say buy a new one! Haha not in the budget this christmas
2 AnswersOther - Winter Sports1 decade agoBest way to pick up playing the piano again?
Hey so i'm 19, in college, and living away from home. I used to play piano when I was younger, for 6-7 years actually. Wasn't too insanely fond it back then, but its something I've steadily been interested in picking up again.
Getting lessons is not something I'm interested in paying for, besides it would be a lot more self-satisfying to teach myself anyway...like a hobby. And yes, I do know that keyboards are pricey haha but that is a price i'm willing to pay
My question is, what would a good (not poor, not great) electronic keyboard choice be? It can't be an natural piano because of space and weight. I would love to just sit in my room and re-create an old hobby through my headphones.
Also, what sheet music/books do you suggest to help me progress?
Thanks for your help guys
1 AnswerClassical1 decade agoHow to record your own rap song over an instrumental?
So I wrote this rap for my girlfriend, and I want to surprise her. I wrote it over an instrumental and I like it a lot so I'm going to give her the track for her birthday...
My question is, what is the best method of doing this? Because I'll have to record my voice obviously, and then use some sort of software to line it up with the instrumental. I'm not talking studio quality here obviously, just something that sounds alright. Will I need to buy a mic? And whats the least costly/most effective way to do this?
Thanks for your input..
8 AnswersRap and Hip-Hop1 decade agoA fast Verizon phone that doesn't require data plan?
So right now I have a dreadfully slow Razr V3 that I would love to get rid of. It lags when I text, send texts, receive texts, everything, its really annoying... The problem is that I don't want a phone that requires a data plan, because 10 dollars isn't worth the data it lets you use, and 30 dollars a month is out of the question for a college student.
So I'm asking, which phones out there are quicker (don't lag) that also don't require a data plan? I was looking at the qwerty keyboard phones, but the ones that don't require data plans seem to be really unreliable. I would prefer it being slim as well, no one likes bulky phones...any suggestions???
1 AnswerCell Phones & Plans1 decade agoDeep knee would isn't healing? Advice?
About a week ago I had a long boarding accident and shredded up my knee. The scrape is circular and deep, and it is directly on top my knee. The wound doesn't seem to be scabbing over, it remains to looking deep. There is only slightly scabbing starting to occur around the perimeter of the wound. I doubt its infected, because I cleaned it thoroughly and I've bandaged it every day with anti-biotic ointment. Since its deep, and on the knee, its obviously having trouble healing because the surface area of the wound keeps changing as I walk in normal day to day things....
What can I do to help this scab over and start healing? Or should I just go see and doc? And what would the doc recommend me do if I did see him?
I appreciate all the info I can get, thanks

1 AnswerCell Phones & Plans1 decade agoQuestion for those book lovers?
Now you see, I've never really been much of a reader. Simply put, because I get very bored with books. My favorite book to date is a lower reading level book called "The Giver". Thats really the only book I've loved, but its merely because no one introduces me to books...this is where you come in. By the way, I'm in college.
-- I like stories that are of a post-apocalyptic setting, brink of extinction stories, or coming from brink of extinction. Kind of like "I am Legend" or "Children of Men"
-- I mostly like intense adventure stories
-- I like stories that are like the movie "Crash" or the show "Lost". Where stories for each character's personal life are introduced separately. And then somehow the characters weave together into a thriller plot.
Suggestions? I wanna read an amazing book. Thanks guys.

2 AnswersYahoo Answers1 decade agoDear Salvia users...I had the same exact trip as my friend?
Before I begin, salvia is legal in colorado, so please, don't be stupid.
Yesterday at around midnight me and my roomate each took a hit of salvia. We tripped way hard for the first minute, but half way through we both realized we had the same exact trip. We explained it the best we could while tripping, it was like we were in the same exact bizzare environment, with the same exact effects.
Everything we said to each other made perfect sense, we definately had the same exact trip. I would expain it over this question, but its way too in depth.
How is this even possible? Afterwards we were stunned and boggled about how this happened. Is this because our brain chemistry is similiar? Or our mood was? I'm just amazed how that possiblity could ever even happened
