What does characteristics mean?
The plural noun characteristics means traits, or features, of a person, thing, or place. The adjective characteristic means "typical of that type" of item, person or place.
For example, an NFL football player's characteristics would be that he is strong, well-trained, and usually well-paid. An individual's characteristics could include his height, weight, eye color, or hair color, or aspects of his personality, such as meek or brash, intelligent or dull.

"Yes. Forest Lawn is a memorial company. They have a lot of cemeteries which are located all over the state of California, in different cities that are spaced out."
A protective relay is a complex electromechanical apparatus, often with more than one coil, designed to calculate operating conditions on an electrical circuit and trip circuit breakers when a fault was found. Unlike switching type relays with fixed and usually ill-defined operating voltage thresholds and operating times, protective relays had well-established, selectable, time/current (or other operating parameter) curves. Such relays were very elaborate, using arrays of induction disks, shaded-pole magnets, operating and restraint coils, solenoid-type operators, telephone-relay style contacts, and phase-shifting networks to allow the relay to respond to such conditions as over-current, over-voltage, reverse power flow, over- and under- frequency, and even distance relays that would trip for faults up to a certain distance away from a substation but not beyond that point. An important transmission line or generator unit would have had cubicles dedicated to protection, with a score of individual electromechanical devices. The various protective functions available on a given relay are denoted by standard ANSI Device Numbers. For example, a relay including function 51 would be a timed overcurrent protective relay. These protective relays provide various types of electrical protection by detecting abnormal conditions and isolating them from the rest of the electrical system by circuit breaker operation. Such relays may be located at the service entrance or at major load centers. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relay

Why are there so many lonely black women in Los Angeles?
I think that black women are seen in a way by men as being loud, offensive, crude, and uneducated. This unflattering picture is unfortunately drawn by the media in TV and movies. It is no way we can compete with the dainty, soft, sexy images that are portrayed by our white counterparts if the media continues to illustrate us in such a negative light. And of all the minority groups of women, I do believe that black women are at the bottom of the list as far as being the most desired of the fairer sex. Just consider the study done by the dating website OK Cupid a few years ago where they found that black women got the least responses to their profiles. Now I am not naive enough to think that the images of black women portrayed in the media are completely untrue. I mean these images did not just appear out of thin air. But just as in any other ethnic group, there are many different types of people, personalities, statuses, demeanors, etc. A lot of us are happy, intelligent, witty, self reliant individuals who want love just like anybody else. So single men out there, I implore you to reconsider your stance on the single black woman. I would ask that you look at us without the preconceived notion that has been constructed in your consciousness by the media, and judge us individually for what each one of us can offer as a mate. The single black woman is an untapped resource that is anxiously waiting for the chance to love and be loved in return. Yours Truly, A lonely, single black woman in Los Angeles

Why did human beings lose their tail during evolution?
We don't definitively know, but it is worth noting that other great apes, our closest relatives, also do not have tails. Perhaps at some point in the evolution of these primates, tails became useless or even inconvenient. Remember if a certain feature becomes useless natural selection will eventually make it disappear over time. Especially as our ancestors started walking upright on two legs, they balanced themselves well and wouldn't have needed a tail.
