What is the historical meaning of the term Hurry Sundown?
This phrase originates from a dreadful movie about racial discrimination directed by Otto Preminger The image is that after sundown it's impossible to tell the difference between black and white
Goku is the main character in the anime/manga series dragon ball, and its subsequent sequels, dragon ball z, and dragon ball gt. He is the avatar of this anime, as he is pure of heart, albeit to a fault, and tremendously strong, and he willingly dies for his people/planet, only to be brought back from the dead/resurrrected with one of the 3 wishes that this world's 7 dragon balls gives once they are collected and the right words are said. Once everything is in order, a great dragon, Shenron, is summoned, granting 3 wishes, but the wishes change depending on the dragon, which depends on the dragon balls or the planet. Once the wishes are up, the balls are scattered all over the globe once again to be gathered again to be used whenever they are needed, which is usually a big pain, and even more so when the balls are changed into the black star ones they are instead scattered all over the dang universe in GT. What's worse, at the end, when the wishes are always being abused, each of of the 7 balls becomes a evil dragon, which is a even bigger pain! Goku comes from a extinct alien race of space monkeys, revealed in dbz, that look like humans, but have tails, and during the full moon, (or even when they think that it is a full moon) they transform to gargantuan gorillas and wreak havoc all over the world, which the alien race known as the saiyans used to dominate planet after planet, planning their invasions on the full moons. -Dragon ball and its subsequent series, z and gt, is based on the Journey to the west story about a monkey, Sun Wukong, and his magical red pole that extends indefinitely that can be used to navigate to new places, new heights, and certainly to beat the mess out of enemies. Allegedly, Sun Wukong reduced its size to a that of a coin and placed it behind its ear to hide it, which was pretty smart. Even as I type, Jet Li and Jackie Chan are making a movie based on this old legend, and are calling it the Forbbiden Kingdom or something like that.- Edit Dragonball is not in any way based off of Journey to the West, one of the Four Great Classical Novels of China. Journey to the West is a story laden with political reform and dripping with the corruption faced by China. Sun Wukong had his Free-Forming Adamantium Gold Staff, the Ruyi Gin Gu Ban.
What is an example of biased language?
It depends on the type of bias.
Sexism:
"Each policeman needs to exercise caution when dealing with suspects."
This can imply there are no female officers or that women shouldn't be police officers.
Ageism
"Elderly people have no sex drive."
"Old people all become confused."
"Seniors should have their driver's licenses taken away."
These are based in discrimination against particular ages. They speak views that come from biases.
Ageism-mixed-with-Sexism
That hot girl is only looking for a Sugar Daddy.
Unmarried men over 40 years old are desirable 'catches'.
Unmarried women over 40 years old are old hags.
That old geezer winked at me.
Cougar women look for younger men.
These attach biases to both age and sex.
Homophobia:
"Gays are nasty."
"Lesbian women will make a girl child they raise turn into a lesbian."
These are derogatory towards a group and implies that gay people are less than human when compared to others.
Racism:
"White people can't dance."
"White boys cannot jump."
"Black people are more likely to want something for nothing."
These are biased and based on stereotypes.
Income-Poor Discrimination
"Everyone on welfare just wants a handout."
"People on Welfare don't want to work."
Many people must turn to Public Welfare to survive. Not everyone who receives public assistance never worked or do not work. Many people voluntarily seek to better their lives and do get off welfare.
Child Discrimination
Children have no knowledge or skills.
Children always need told what to do.
A well-behaved child is a well-rounded child. (But many highly creative children do not act "well behaved", and many "well behaved" children are just too scared to do anything because they've been so abused.)
Children who grow up with parents on Welfare or without a job will never amount to anything.
Children who grow up with parents with medical or psychiatric problems will grow up to have emotional problems.
Abused children will grow up to abuse their own children.
Each of these positions a child into a non-person-- they can't think or do by their own initiative. It assumes children need to be over protected.
Housing Discrimination:
"House for rent, perfect for a White professional, heterosexual couple without children."
This type of ad is illegal, as is any overt or covert racial or family status discrimination. It is basically saying that non-white couples, mixed couples, and children really are not welcome. What about a professional Black lesbian couple with well-behaved children?
Is there a Thích Quang Duc video?
No. There is a popular reenactment circulating the net from Mondo Cane 2, but there is no actual footage of it. The video from Mondo Cane 2 - http://in-humanity.net/the-burning-monk-thich-qu%E1%BA%A3ng-d%E1%BB%A9c/
No, the sand would not be drawn to the marble. Gravity is the force that draws smaller objects to larger ones; this force occurs because objects (with mass) bend the space around them. The concept of a "space" existing that is devoid of gravitational influence is counterintuitive to what we know about physics - this is almost like a trick question (not unlike one that may be found in a text book)... The above may be correct; I am not an expert. But from my amateur reading, I have some doubts. First, gravity is not the force that draws "smaller objects to larger ones". It is an essential property of all mass, including atoms and sub-atomic particles (other than photons and other massless particles). Any 2 masses exert a mutual pull; it's not one of the objects pulling on the other. The movement of the bodies will depend on the inertia of the bodies.
I think the marble and the grain of sand would indeed eventually come together as a result of gravity, but only under certain conditions. The 2 masses would have to be stationary relative to each other; in other words, at a constant and absolutely unchanging distance from one another [initially]. If there is any movement, then they may be displacing from one another at a velocity greater than the "escape velocity" needed to maintain an eternally increasing distance between them. This might even be true if they are moving toward each other.
In the far reaches of inter-galactic space, where all the gravity of all the distant stuff everywhere balances out, and assuming that there will be no errant forces or bits of flotsam and jetsam zipping around, and given the absolutely motionless initial state, I believe the grain will eventually crash land on the marble by way of gravity alone. They will bounce off of each other and do this over and over again, absorbing the heat of the collisions as they go. Eventually, they will rest together in a gravitational embrace. == == If you're only concerned with gravity and are willing for the sake of argument to dismiss all other objectionable factors, yes, they would be drawn together.
Two (hypothetically at absolute rest) electrons a trillion parsecs apart would be pulled together by gravity and eventually collide, or atleast collide as much as two barely moving electrons are wont to do, granted you provide adequate time for the subtle warping of spacetime to propagate and cause the two of them to each start slowly rolling down the hyperspatial indentation in the other's direction. You can watch, if you want. Feel free to start the popcorn anytime, though, 'cause it'll be a while.
What is the penalty for vandalism in South Carolina?
Depends on the severity of the crime. I believe that anything under a $1,000 in damages is considered a misdemeanor. Anything from $1,000 to $5,000 is consider a felony (which can include up to 5 years in prison.) Anything above $5,000 is consider a class A felony (which can include up to 10 years in prison.) All of these come with court fees, and fines, and paying back the damages. So be prepared to pay a lot of money. Depends on the severity of the crime.

Why you do analog to analog conversion?
To isolate a patient from getting connected to stray voltages. An isolation transformer is used and batteries power it to further isolate you from the real world. Also for sensitive measurements to eliminate some of the noise and current loops.
What is the powerhouse of the human body?
Mitochondria is known as power house of cell. They use carbohydrates and fats present in the cell to CO2 and water vapour. Oxidation releases energy, a portion of which is used to form ATP. Since the mitochondria synthesize, energy-rich compounds (ATP), they are known as 'power house ' of cell.
What is a cell city analogy for a protein?
In a cell city analogy, a protein can be compared to a building material like bricks. Proteins are essential for the structure and function of cells, much like how bricks are used to construct buildings in a city. They play roles in cellular processes, act as enzymes, and provide structural support, much in the same way that buildings serve specific functions within a city.
Why A parallel leg or branch added around an analog meter movement is known as a?
I don't know which one it is a,,,bypass,,,,current loop,,,,shunt,,,wire resistor
Bicycle is to ride as needle is to?
Poke or thread. Since you ride a bicycle, you would thread or poke a needle.
"On the Air" means that the program is currently being broadcast live. Most sports, news programs and radio talk shows are actually broadcast live, rather than being taped, perhaps edited, and then broadcast later.

What are trumps lavish apartments in New York City?
Trumps main apartment in New York City is a 3 Story Triplex at 721 Fifth Avenue, better known as the Trump Tower. He has the top three floors 65 thru 68. I have seen apartments and represented owners in this building in the past and present. It has perhaps the best views in the city which includes both rivers, the building skyline and a complete view of central park. You can also see the statue of liberty.

"Analogous" is a type of colour scheme where an artist will use three or more colours that are beside each other on the colour wheel to create a colour theme in a piece of art.
Examples
"Red" "Red-Orange""Orange"
"Blue-Purple" "Blue" "Blue-Green"
Van Goghs famous "Sunflowers" painting is arguably an analogous colour scheme
"Yellow-Green", "Yellow", "Yellow-Orange"
