What was the biggest snow fall in North Carolina in the last 100 years?
36 inches. (in the Appalachian Mountians)
The above answer of 36 inches is incorrect. This total is nowhere near the biggest snowfall to occur in NC. The state record is 60 inches in a single snowfall, and this occured 2 times. Frpm April 2-6, 1987, 60 inches of snow fell on Newfound Gap in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, and this total occured again between May 7-9, 1992 on Mt. Pisgah, on the Blue Ridge Parkway below Asheville.
The 36 inch total in the above answer, is merely the greatest snow total in 24 hours, and occured on Mt. Mitchell. But single snowfall totals have exceeded 36 inches MANY times in the mountains. So, the above answer is somewhat misleading.

Places where the government has opted to stay on their Summer Time offset year-'round (including Russia and the Falkland Islands) were not included here.
Some of the science stations in Antarctica adjust for Summer Time every year, not because there is any real benefit in the practice that close to one of the poles, but to stay in sync with their suppliers. Two such stations that I know of are New Zealand's McMurdo Station, which follows New Zealand's Summer Time schedule, and the United States' Palmer Station, which follows Chile's Summer Time schedule.
In almost all of the places where Summer Time is observed, clocks are advanced one hour in the spring or late winter and turned back one hour in the fall or late summer WITH TWO EXCEPTIONS:
* The clocks on Lord Howe Island are advanced a half hour for Summer Time. Although there have been other places with unique Summer Time offsets, including 20 minutes and 2 hours, Lord Howe Island is the only place that is using a Summer Time offset other than one hour currently.
The clocks in Morocco are being adjusted four times per year instead of twice. In addition to the spring and fall adjustments, Summer Time is suspended during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan.
What is the organization that maintains the internet?
There isn't one! Believe it or not, the internet is a conglomerate of 'volunteers' across the world. Yes, there are governing bodies in most countries that maintain and track the domain names. Governments in some countries try to restrict or control access. But ISPs provide servers and some connectivity, the government provides some of the DNS servers and connectiviity, Universities provide some of it, as well as various telecommunications companies. Businesses and other organizations provide parts to meet their needs. It really is amazing that it all works!
What does hotlinking images mean?
A hotlink is a direct link to an image on someone else's web server. For example, if you saw an image that you like in one of these blinkies resources and you put the image on your weblog using the image URL source of that other person's site, then you are hotlinking. And, unless the owner of that site permits this, then you are stealing bandwidth, which is unacceptable. The right thing to do, if you are allowed to use an image from someone else's site but not allowed to hotlink, is to save that image on your computer. Then, upload the image on your own server. You can then link the image to your weblog.
What are good websites to look at for information on genealogy?
I know of at least two good ones: genealogy.com and the Brigham Young University genealogy web site. The Mormons are a great source of information on genealogy; they've kept extensive records for a long time. I don't know the exact site here but if you go to (or call) a public library, the reference librarian could give you the site listing. Also, check with the library, because lots of them have genealogy classes which cost nothing to attend! == There are SO many great websites with genealogical information, but here are a few ideas for you: 1) www.familysearch.org 2) www.rootsweb.com 3) http://www.cyndislist.com/ (a catalog of genealogy websites) 4) http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgw/ (US GenWeb Project; some of the county sites are especially helpful) For England (1837-1930) http://freebmd.rootsweb.com/cgi/search.pl

What is the old way of sending mail before the internet?

What quadrants in the Johari Window need to shrink in order for us to gain greater self-awareness?
The blind spot and facade quadrants need to shrink in order to gain greater self-awareness. This involves receiving feedback from others and reflecting on our own behavior and thoughts to uncover hidden aspects of ourselves. By bringing these areas into the open, we can improve our self-understanding and personal growth.
Trolling is usually fun due to the humour involved in trolling. Depending on the type of trolling, it often involves sarcastic or witty humour injected into situations. There can also be a feeling of power or superiority over the target(s).
This can be done in a wide range of ways, simply by playing stupid, saying negative things about individuals via public posts on the internet, e.g. Twitter attacks on celebrities, or even going as far as to make fun of the deceased, "An Hero" being a notable example, and providing misinformation, as are currently popular with YouTube trolling videos in the gaming community.
Troll people are always be sick. Sign of mental disorder. Why do people troll to other because such persons are insane. You can not expect some thing exude .
Such a sick people feel pleasure to troll others.
Why are people on the internet worse than people in real life?
There are a few explanations.
- Since much internet communications is typed with people not being able to actually see or hear each other. With this personal aspect of conversation removed, someone might be inclined to say things that they would never say to someone's face.
- Many of the people that say hateful or inappropriate things on the internet may be the sort that, frankly, don't get out much and so you are less likely to meet them in real life.
- Many inappropriate comments are posted by a relative minority of the population, but these people tend to be more vocal and so are more easily noticed.
Does world wide web making propaganda easier?
The World Wide Web has made it easier to disseminate propaganda due to its widespread reach and accessibility. It allows propaganda messages to be quickly distributed to a global audience through various online channels such as social media, websites, and online forums. However, the Internet also offers opportunities for fact-checking and counteracting propaganda with diverse sources of information.
Doctors may appear angry due to stress and burnout from long hours, high patient volume, and dealing with difficult cases. They also may feel pressured by administrative tasks and navigating complex healthcare systems, leading to frustration and fatigue. It is important for doctors to practice self-care and seek support to better manage these challenges.
Can you get addicted to blogging?
Absolutely. In fact, I would argue that you can become 'addicted' to almost anything. Gambling, drinking, smoking, and drug-use are only seen as real addictions because (and this is always open to opinion) they're 'bad'. But who says you can't become just as obsessed with/afflicted by a constant need to tell your thoughts online? Who's to say there aren't people out there, right now, agonizing over how much longer they'll have to wait before they can get back on Myspace? Certainly. Blogging can be just as addictive as crack if you let it.
In the memory stages describe the 3 steps involved in processing information in order?
The three steps involved in processing information in memory are encoding (converting information into a construct that can be stored in memory), storage (maintaining encoded information over time), and retrieval (recovering stored information when needed). These stages work together to help us remember and recall information efficiently.
An anecdotal record should contain all of the following except?
Anecdotal records typically include observations of behavior, context, and interactions, as well as any pertinent details or factors that may have influenced the behavior. However, they do not typically include personal opinions or subjective interpretations that are not based on observable facts.
Why Are there so many predators in online chat rooms?
Chat rooms are frequently populated by unmonitored children and teens and are the ideal hunting ground for pedophiles to seek out those who might be emotionally susceptible to their advances. Chat rooms provide a cloak of anonymity that allows the predator to pose as someone who is friendly to children and their emotional needs. This same anonymity encourages some children to expose personal details about themselves that they would never reveal to a stranger in person. Once the child and predator have been brought together in this fashion, the predator need only employ the tried and true grooming techniques of fostering an emotional bond with his victim to be exploited.
