Thunderstorms and Lightning

The lifespan of a republic can vary significantly based on historical circumstances, societal stability, and political factors. Some republics have lasted for centuries, while others have collapsed after a much shorter period of time. It is important to note that there is no set duration for how long a republic will last.

Cultivated land characteristics include soil fertility, water availability, slope, and sunlight exposure. Soil composition, drainage, and pH level are also important factors, as well as the presence of nutrients and organic matter. Proper land management practices such as irrigation, crop rotation, and pest control can help maintain and improve cultivated land characteristics for optimal crop growth.

Here are some facts, details and interesting tidbits on the 2008 Presidential Campaign: * This is the first time that a woman or an African-American has been a serious contender for the nomination, and it appears that one of them will become the Democrats' nominee. * Rudy Giuliani, former New York Major who served during 911, is running for President in 2008. * Congressman Ron Paul, the Libertarian candidate for president in 1988, is amazing everyone with the success of his campaign for the Republican nomination this year. Although nobody expects him to win, his early poll numbers rival those of the top three candidates. * Barack Obama and Jhon MaCain are running for presedant

Bugsy Siegel is believed to have been responsible for ordering multiple murders during his criminal activities, but there is no confirmed number of victims directly attributable to him. Some estimates suggest that he may have been involved in as many as 20 murders.

The lightning symbol on a car dashboard typically indicates an issue with the car's electrical system. It could indicate a problem with the battery, alternator, or other electrical components. It is recommended to have the vehicle inspected by a mechanic as soon as possible to diagnose and fix the issue.

Bluntly, some women get nausea only in the mornings yet some experience it in the afternoon, or evenings, or worse ALL DAY LONG. The good news is typically most women's nausea passes after the 3rd month. So once you hit your 12 weeks mark the nausea should dissapate. Keep in mind that some women stay nauseated longer and shorter than that but 12 weeks is the average. In other words prepare to have an affair with your toilet for the entire first trimester! To help get rid of the nausea I used to wake up and immediatley begin eating crackers! It really helped although it was awful lol! Sipping on ginger ale helped too. Good luck! Pam

Everyone has their own opinions about anti barking devices. Many people view these as cruel and perhaps inhumane, especially the shocking ones of course. These run a huge risk of making the dog fearful of doing anything, as a dog will not make the connection between barking (which is a very natural thing for a dog to do) and (possibly painful) noises going off. It's really all about personal preference.

Stirring increases the interaction between the solute and solvent, helping the solute particles break apart and mix more thoroughly into the solvent. This increases the surface area of the solute exposed to the solvent, allowing for quicker dissolution.

No, a cellphone speaker cannot emit a high frequency tone powerful enough to kill a person. High frequency tones emitted by cellphones are limited in power and intensity and are not harmful to humans.

To pitch effectively, clearly present your idea or product, emphasizing its unique selling points and benefits. Tailor your pitch to your audience, highlighting how your idea meets their needs. Make sure to be engaging, concise, and confident in your delivery.

The location for the US Capital was selected by Congress in 1790 as part of the Residence Act. The decision to establish a new capital city along the Potomac River was made to appease both northern and southern states and to create a neutral ground for the federal government.

Sound waves do not move in space; they require matter to be passed on. Sound waves that reach space essential peter out, much like surf waves of an ocean when they hit shore. But at least theoretically, if there were strong enough sound waves to begin with, they would bounce or echo off the edge of the atmosphere and move back toward the earth's surface. Think of a cord tied off at one end and held taut by you at the other end. A quick 'wave' given to the cord will travel to the tied end and back to you. In other words sound would probably behave like radio waves but with much less energy, and they would rapidly be absorbed by the atmosphere itself.

A 1964 penny with the head side struck normally and the backside blank is extremely rare and would likely be considered an error coin. Error coins like this can hold significant value to collectors due to their unique nature and scarcity. It is recommended to have the coin authenticated by a professional numismatist to determine its authenticity and value.

Yes, if piston rods are not installed correctly during a rebuild, it could cause engine damage, poor performance, or even complete engine failure. It is crucial to follow the manufacturer's specifications and ensure proper alignment and torque settings during reassembly.

You are moving at 3 mph relative to the ground since you are walking at 2 mph towards the rear of the train while the train is moving at 5 mph towards the North. This is calculated by subtracting your walking speed from the train's speed.

By hiding with gentiles. Answer 2 True, many people, including Germans, hid Jewish Families, sometimes for the length of the War, at great risk to themselves, AND don't forget, Risk to their own Families as well. However, if the question is about survival INSIDE a Camp, then this was in many ways, up the the persons way of thinking! If the Prisoner thought of his Family, The Past, Tomorrow, then in a short time their Spirit was broken, and they 'just' died. The Secret was not to think at all, Not to think about anything except, finding food, keeping clean as best you could, in short, keeping your humanity, and keeping out of the 'eye' of any passing Guard. If you escaped selection for gassing, escaped being picked out by a Guard, escaped talking about your past to anybody, and did not starve to death, froze to death, beaten to death, but kept your head down, and thought only about this second, and not the next one, you MIGHT, just might, live until tomorrow, and then it all started all over again. Don't forget, the main objective of the Nazi's, was to break peoples Spirit, and turn them into closer to an animal state, before killing them. To turn them into Non-persons! So you will see, that it was very hard to survive for even a short time, but some, not many it's true, managed to survive for weeks, months, and the odd one, for a year, or even more. The Human Spirit is very strong in some people.

Because most of the time, the objects concerned are electrically neutral or bear only a small net electric charge, making other interactions such as gravity the dominant interaction. For example, an electrically charged ball will fall to the ground most of the time, even if placed beneath another object bearing the opposite charge, because the ball would have to be very light and very stronly charged in order to make the electrical Coulomb interaction strong enogh to become comparable to the gravitational force exerted on the ball by the earth's mass. In some cases however, such as a single electron flying through the electric field of a capacitor, the charge of the particle with respect to its mass is so big that gravity is neglectable compared to the Coulomb interaction.

1. Check the headlight bulbs and fuses to ensure they are not burnt out.
2. Inspect the wiring for any breaks or damage.
3. For the power locks, check the fuse, relay, and the lock actuators for any issues.

There is a simple answer and a complicated answer. The simple anser is, "Neither", the complicated answer is , "It depends."

No, it was an arrow. The actual cause of King Harold's death is unknown. However, while being struck in the eye by an arrow seems a very possible cause of his death, he definitely was not struck in the eye with lightning.

You would multiply the probabilities. The probability the first marksmen hits the target x the probability the second marksmen hits the target x the probability the third marksmen hits the target x the probability the fourth marksmen hits the target. So you take .80 x .80 x .80 x .80 = .4096 or about 41%. So if they all fire at the target with each having an 80% probability of hitting, there will be about a 41% chance they will all hit. If you actually think about this question, though, you would be wise to hesitate about the answer. What causes marksmen to miss? In general it would be many things, often acting in combination: trembling of the hands, distractions, shifts of the wind, variations in the ammunition being fired, and so on. If all four marksmen are shooting simultaneously, or nearly so, then some of these causes will be acting in the same way on all four. These would include the wind and the environmental distractions, for instance. It's therefore conceivable that when one marksman misses, so will all the others, and (usually) when one marksman hits the target, the others will be able to as well. In this situation the probability that four marksmen will all hit the target will be close to 80%, not 41%. The question itself couches some ambiguities. For instance, at a tournament of 100 marksmen, the probability that some four will all hit their target is likely close to 100%. (Problems like this in interpreting the intended meaning of probability questions go all the way back to the very first book on probability by Christian Huygens in 1657. There was argument among very good mathematicians for a long time about the answer to one of his problems because it had three distinct interpretations.)

You are hearing on of the harmonics. Most dimmers are triac based, and simply turn on at a certain point in the AC wave. This sharp change in voltage induces noise into the system, often causeing the filiments of lights to resonate at certain settings. You are hearing something resonating at a harmonic because of a cheap dimmer.

All the parties who share the common fencing are equally responsible for it's repair or replacement. The owner of the property on which the tree was located is only responsible for their "fair share" not for the entire amount.

If changing the belt and tension pulley did not resolve the high-pitched squealing sound, it could be a sign of a failing alternator, idler pulley, or a loose accessory pulley. I recommend having a mechanic inspect these components to identify and fix the issue.

It's best to turn your back and try to not think of him/her at all. You'll remember stuff anyway and if you were hurt it might be good to remember that so that you'll avoid someone who might do that to you in the future. Most relationships start out with good intentions and there are some good memories, but either a calculated effort by an abuser, narcissist or people simply falling out of love there can be many heartaches. It's the good memories we choose to remember because at the moment the person that has been abused or their partner has fallen out of love with them or cheated on them, feels they didn't quite put 100% into the relationship and can often blame themselves for what their ex partner has done and that's because their abuser or narcissist partner has planted this seed into their victim's mind. In time, once the grieving is over the rejected person or the one that got away from their abuser will realize they did nothing wrong. I have noticed even when there is a relative that passes on that hasn't always been all that great in the family and the center of the family grapevine, that when that person passes on it's amazing how people can cry over the loss of that person they never really liked in the first place and will even make a lengthy eulogy regarding the deceased as to what a great person they were. It's because most of us were brought up to not talk ill of the dead. Grief is not reserved for the loss of a loved one or even a dear pet, but grief can hit all of us when a relationship has turned sour or a human suffers any trauma. Go with the flow, but don't sit alone too long crying over it because he/she was simply not worth the skin they were in and the chances of them changing is nil! Narcissists are ego-maniacal, selfish, controlling, and although they can love it frustrates them that they actually know their type of love is different from others, but like a runaway locomotive they simply keep going in the style they are comfortable with and want to maintain that control at all times. THEY actually fear they will become weak if they show any signs of affection and most of all they fear they simply aren't good enough for others so they appear arrogant, down their victim and they are often highly intelligent people, but haven't learned to rein it in and use that intelligence for good use. Good for you for taking this big step and I know it wasn't easy, but you just saved yourself a load of misery and you've managed to save the best years of your life for yourself and eventually will meet someone else that is not controlling and gives back what you give them. Good luck!
