What time in Australian EST is August 21 2007 1pm EDT?

AEST (or GMT+10) is fifteen hours ahead of EST (GMT-5) outside of daylight saving months and fourteen hours ahead during daylight savings as AEST does not observe but EST does.

Therefore, in August when it is 1pm in the EST timezone it is 3am, the following day, in AEST.

Can the international community cope with this emerging challenge?

Without question. We are wise enough to keep our heads, when all around us are losing theirs.
We have faced countless challenges before, and have surmounted each and every one, without
exemption. As a race, we put our nose to the grindstone, our back to the wind, our shoulder to
the wheel, and yet through it all, we still manage to work in that position, to do what must be done.
While even sinking to new depths, we rise to new challenges. We slip the surly bonds of Earth, and
dance the skies on laughter-silvered wings, put out our hands, and touch the face that feeds us.
Oh that our reach might forever exceed our grasp, else what's a heaven for. Oh say, can you see
how our faith makes us strong. As it were ever so, and be that as it may, so shall it be written, as well
and as it were.

How could we have menus from the NYK line ship Nitta Maru dated July through August 1940 if your information states the ship was not even completed until 1942 and that it never carried civilians?

My mother went from San Francisco to Tanggu Port (at Tiensin) of Peking in September 1940 so I know it was operational there. I have a picture of her on the boat. She was a missionary teacher on her way to the mission fields. Joanie Schirm

I too know the ship was sailing in December 1940. My mother, Louisette Sadler 16 years old, was on the ship coming from Shanghai to San Francisco arriving January 1941.

How do you make your girlfriend's parents stop hating you if you have a bad past with them and right now they hate you so much that the only time you can see her is by senaking in or out?

Parents don't just hate their daughter's boyfriends without good reason. Time for you to take a good hard look at yourself and your behavior. If you have a bad attitude, are rude to their daughter or to them, then my friend, you have lost the war and not the battle! Copping an attitude with parents is suicide! You won't win! If they catch you sneaking out with their daughter you have just added another item to their long list as to why they don't like you. If you were the man you think you are, you would tidy yourself up, go to their house, knock on the door and ask in a polite manner if you could come in and talk. Hopefully, they are the type of people that are willing to listen (can't promise you that) and explain some of your behavior and tell them you came to apologize and that you are trying your best to change yourself and you'd better mean it! To tell you the truth I don't think you've learned one thing about yourself or tried to improve yourself and I think you are using their daughter as a pawn to get back at them. You WILL LOSE! Marcy

Your boyfriend is still on dating sites online?

If your boyfriend is still on dating sites when he's dating you...that could very well be a big issue. I would feel very suspicious if I were you, but I think the best thing to do would be just to talk to him about it and see whats up. Maybe he's trying to help his friends get some dates or something, but if he doesn't give you an acceptable excuse, it might be time to rethink your relationship. Dating sites are for people who are looking for a relationship, not people who are happily in one. Anyway, the best solution would be having a conversation with him about it first...it all could just be a misunderstanding to begin with. Well i hope this helps and i hope anyone who comes across this page can feel better about knowing how to handle this situation. :)

Philadelphia is located closest to what meridian?

There is no standard set of meridians that everybody has to use, and when you

need one you have to pick one out of the official set that's somewhere close.

You would not ask somebody "What mark on the ruler is closest to your height ?"

You would ask him "How tall are you ?" Even if there doesn't happen to be a mark

on the ruler at that exact height, there could be.

Similarly, a meridian can be drawn at any longitude, and you don't ask "What

longitude are you close to ?", you ask "What is your longitude ?".
