How does the weather influence boat traffic on rivers?
Are parameters like temperature, humidity, wind, rain and snowfall important for boats and ships (large and small ones) that travel on rivers? In which way are the ships or the crew affected, and to what extent is the weather important?
Weather can play a part in the way the cruise goes. We run in all weathers, except high winds ( over 35 knots ). We will try to cruise in an area that is protected from winds and run slower when we do go, more for the comfort on the guests on board. I have done cruises in rain, snow and even freezing temps, having to break ice to get back to our dock. Our vessels have a captain and 2 deck hands, and the only person the bad weather truly effects is the extra stress on the captain. The vessel itself will handle anything that we are willing to go in.
How has religion attempted to force itself on the government and vise versa?
What is a way that religion has attempted to force itself on the government and a way that the government has attempted to force itself upon religion?
Is either one justified or are they unjustified?

I hope I live to see the day when, as in the early days of our country, we won’t have any public schools. The churches will have taken them over again and Christians will be running them. What a happy day that will be!

Okay, LAST QUESTION. What, in your opinion, is pure luxury?

Nice to have met you btw, don’t take my last answer too seriously! x
Why do personalities and politics delay and destabilize all big projects, rather than assisting ?
Isn’t it really that personalities and politics greatly unsuited to a big project would delay and destabilize, as opposed to assisting ?
There "must" be personalities and politics which greatly assists big projects.
Forgive typo.
There "must" be personalities and politics which greatly assist big projects.
To deja, ana, iggy,
Thanks. Terrific.
-both personalities and politics run on one major factor: EGO!
and never the twain shall meet…

What branch of military should i go into?
I am 14 and planning to go to the military straight out of high school, but i don’t know what to go into. My first cousin is in Spec ops but i think im interested in U.S.M.C. I don’t know much about the military so i don’t have many options. Please help.
Dude believe me everyone wants to join the Marines when they are at your age but they just don’t do it. You will go to a recruiting office but thats probably as far as its going to get sorry dude I’m just giving you the facts. There are just a bunch of kids on the internet who want to be marines and pretend to be in the Marines.But like i said just think and do research on some other branches then wait 2 years and you will come up with an answer and be able to go see a recruiter
What is the general rule of how long you keep your billing statements?
How long do you keep your billing statements, or other utility records on hand? I don’t recall the general rule of thumb about this. I don’t usually have to refer back to my bills for anything, other than for my Home, and Taxes, and that’s about it. But, what about the utilities, and credit card bills? When is a good time to shred these?
Most people keep thing from one tax period to another around here, But, in some states you don’t have to file everything.
So, I would just keep them for one year for peace of mind. It seems the minute, you do shred something . all of a sudden you need it,LOL
What schools do you recommend for environmental architecture?
I want to study architecture, environmental engineering, and environmental design. I have a 4.05 cumulative GPA and will be graduating high school in two years. I’m willing- and would prefer to- work very hard and take 18 credited hours or more, while auditing a class or two. I can’t afford to go out of the US unless a full tuition scholarship is available.
Also, what are some ways to get noticed and get scholarships from these schools?
You will not get a full tuition scholarship to study outside the USA.
You need to stop thinking in terms of "environmental" anything. It is the sign of an unemployable tree-hugger.
Environmental Engineering has the most credibility of any study, but even environmental engineers get little respect from other engineers.
How does nuclear fusion produce energy when it requires energy?
How come atoms release energy when they are split, and also release energy when they are combined?
Also, if a star’s mass is the force that combines hydrogen atoms and creates all the elements (via gravity), doesn’t all energy in the universe initially come from the force of gravity? Where does this energy come from?
Mass and energy are the same thing, and the law of conservation of energy says "energy cannot be created or destroyed, only converted from one form to another".
As far as I can understand, some fusion reactions release energy, proton-proton repulsion, stored in atomic nuclei. Other fusion reactions store energy in the form of proton-proton repulsion. As well, neutron absorption following neutron-proton transmutation store energy in heavier atomic nuclei such as uranium. Hence, neutron is needed to destabilize heavier atomic nuclei releasing stored energy, as well energetic collisions to fuse light atomic nuclei creating unstable nuclei releasing energy, or creating stable nuclei storing energy.
Gravational energy is not consumed, I think it acts as a catalyst increasing pressure, which increases the temperature favoring energetic collisions.
What methodology can you suggest for economics thesis topic?
What methodology can you suggest for economics thesis topic?
Im planning to make a thesis, the role of women in advancing the field of economics. That includes women in the academic field and those who are in the non-academic field.
Can you suggest any methodology or framework that i can use?
Thank you so much..
Hi, I have just completed my dissertation of M.Phil. I was in the problem of finding a sample thesis and also was in problem of designing and composing it. I did not know how to design and compose and prepare it because my guide was not good enough. Then I found the website www.mythesis.we.bs I found that that is a wonderful Thesis information place. I read some information there. A thesis package is also available there. I downloaded this thesis package. It was containing One Complete Thesis + a resentation and a lot of Information on how to make dissertation or thesis. I keep the Sample Thesis in front of me and completed my own thesis very easily. You must visist at that site and download that package as its really useful and helpful. You will be able to prepare your dissertation or thesis within few days. May be that sample thesis becomes your own thesis by making only few changes. The site is www.mythesis.we.bs All the best dear…
Where can I find information about crime statistics?
United States
Day vs night
Violent vs non-violent
And other break downs
I’d like to analyze crime throughout the country, possibly by cities or states about when and where crime occurs and what type of crimes are being committed at what times?
I want to compare specifically crimes committed at night vs crimes committed during the day. Violent vs nonviolent.
Are more crimes committed during the day or at night? What about violent crimes, are more committed at night or during the day? Do you have stats to back up your answer?
You can start here.
