Can an Army unit require you to win a Soldier of the Month board before appearance to the promotion board?

As a former member of the 82nd Abn. Div, and also with the 1/75 Ranger Bn, promotions are based on several qualifications, time in service, your Military record, points, and your conduct to show leadership skills. Your attitude,apearence in uniform, and your skill qualifications, in your MOS. Pending on your promtion, E-5 or E-6, is based on your supperiors recomindations, and if above that, based on openings in your MOS, and Congressional hearings. Stay out of trouble, no article 15's, attend as many Military schools available, keep sharp, uniforms always clean, be aggresive and take control of leadership opportunities. Do well on skill tests, keep your record updated. The more letters,accomindations,awards, schools, your conduct, all have a impact on promotion. Being Soldier of the month is not a pre-requisite, but, in getting it, usually could be a advacement if your a E-4.Any positive good soldiering is good for promotion. Good luck-Airborne!!!

Can I settle a $7000 old tuition bill?

I have a old tuition bill with a collection agency that is $7000 with NCO Financial, they have added on $2000 in late fees and interest charges. I wanted to know, would it be possible for me to settle this debt with them, how willing would they be to work with me? What percentage should I offer them? Also, the debt has not been placed on my credit report yet, will paying or settling this debt prevent them from placing it on my credit report? Any advice would be helpful, I am working so hard to repair my credit.

What Colleges offer this degree?

I am interested in the field of Solar Energy, I am not really sure what the title or name of the degree is but I figured it has to be something like Alternative Energy Engineering or Solar Engineering. I'm having a hard time on Google trying to find what colleges offer something like this, I would really like to stay close to my home state in Texas. Would really appreciate if you guys could give me a grasp of where and what I need to do to find more information on this career

What time do new games show up on the Nintendo eShop?

I know new titles are added every Thursday morning. Does anyone know around what time, though? If you can find an RSS Feed of updates to the Store that would be even better!

Solar panel greenhouse?

So I want to build a greenhouse in a location that gets to -40 and lower without much sunlight in the winter. I was looking for something that would be able to utilize the little sunlight it does get and implement a lighting system run off solar panels to make up for the sunlight it doesn't get. Does anyone know a link to a site that would be able to help me with this? Also it would be nice to have a section of it to house a few chickens for eggs, so would need to heat this section as well.

Did you know Jesus warned us that the abomination of desolation would be Muslim?

That is a very interesting formula. Arguments like this and the rebuttal by our Muslim friend about the Synagogue of Satan to me are signs of the end of the age and point to the anti-Christ. The anti-Christ denies Jesus is Lord. This is Jesus' epoch and He is standing at the door knocking. If you hear Him won't you strive for the mark?

If i did my part 2 physical and i got hurt at work, what should i do?

I am getting out of the ARMY. I'm sorry, its just not for me. I already did my part 2 physical. people that come to this duty station, mainly E4's, tell me at their unit, if someone had already done their part 2, they were pretty much on a dead man's profile. My unit seems to have a different take on it. I still do everything I did before, but they're not as nice about it, since I am leaving. The other day I was told to build up this tent that we use on a regular basis, that just so happens to weigh a lot. Well, being the residential pro at putting this thing together, they definitely didn't feel like letting me slide on setting it up. long story short, i pulled something in my back. i have tried Icey/Hot Pads, pain killers, rest, and drinking water and nothing will stop it. I told my NCO and he told me to deal with it. so how do I do that if i'm not supposed to go to the TMC anymore? and how do i keep from them continuing to abuse me just because they know its not their problem anymore?

1 in 4 Canadians don't believe in God but less than 1 in 10 USA folks don't believe. What's wrong with Canada?

They probably have a better education system and maybe they don't force feed young impressionable kids the fear tactics of religion and God.

I'm in the Army and my sergeant hit me? Should i say something?

Ok, heres what happened. I was 10 minutes late to a duty I got tasked to because I got lost. I explained to my sergeant but he was extremely mad. He smoked me for 30 minutes and was going off on me. When I got up he told me I couldnt pick my wife up and I had to sleep at batallion for a week. My wife was getting out of the hospital. This made me really angry and I said this is bull ****. I know that wasn't right and you should always show the upmost respect to all NCO's. Im only a pv2 and know better then that. When I said it though he charged me like he was going to hit me and another soldier stopped him but he was trying soooo hard to get to me. I was honestly scared and backed away. He is a huge guy and im only 5'9 and 155 pounds. i backed away because I was honestly scared i **** you not. There was a table near by and he kicked it. Well when he kicked it the table hit my knee. My knee is now swollen really bad and went to sick hall really bad. The doc said there is fluid in my knee and it needs to be removed. Its extremely painful. I told command what happend and they arent really doing much about it. Should I go to JAG. I know I was disrespectful but I just feel like he took it to far. What would you do and am I over reacting. Answers please. Thank you. Also Im a good soldier and not a **** bag. I have never been in trouble. He is a staff sergeant and is about to get pinned sergeant first class.

WHAT CAN I DO TO CHANGE THE ARMY?

Im starting to see that the Army is loosing its discipline and becoming ghetto! Everywhere I go i see somebody with a shaving profile, haircuts all jacked up and not by AR670-1, pants hanging low in ACU's and when you try to correct them they get all bent out of shape and not give a F. It;s not just lower enlisted its NCOs too, It bothers me that you can be all hood and ghetto "what up dawwwg""hey my N***A" and still be considered to be a leader. It is disappointing and I am working on becoming an NCO but I don;t know how I am going to straighten this up. The military is a place for discipline, honor, and courage not the total opposite. Could it be that its because I am in a non combat MOS? because I will be combat arms in a few months. What can I do? I look at shows like Band of Brothers and i love the Army I show, up for PT on monday and i hate the Army....

Where can i find the messurments needed for placement on the new ASU's?

I looked thru AR 670-1, but all i see is just the description of the new uniform. Im lookin to find all the placements and measurements for placement. My nco told me that i have to buy all new ribons and stuff, so im trying to find this info so i know if i need to buy new stuff to put on the uniform or if i can take the ones off my class A's.

If you were stuck on an isolated island with a media player, what songs would you like to be on it?

It really wouldn't matter. Regardless of how great the songs were, after listening to nothing but those specific songs for years, listening to them would get incredibly old and unenjoyable.

Can I have the Arch Of Swords at my wedding?

Okay so my fiance and I are having an outdoor ceremony at the reception site. My fiance is a Marine, he's a Lcpl and two of his groomsmen are Cpls. They all are veterans and aren't active any longer. Can we do the Arch of Swords with only two NCOs? And can we do it at all since my fiance isn't an NCO? I know its "my wedding" and I can do whatever I want, but I mean is it within regulation to do this. Thanks!

What could be used on an island to make it self sufficient?

You do realize that there are actually people living in island nations that sustain themselves without electricity in this day and age. Towns and villages thrived without modern equipment too. I seem to remember reading about entire empires that dominated most of Europe, Asia, Africa, and the Middle East that did quite well without electricity so do you believe that this would be one of the main concerns of the few remaining survivors from a zombie takeover? I only ask because anyone caught in a survival situation won't be worrying about electricity as a priority. Water, shelter, food, and companionship are all basic needs, your ipod isn't. Sorry, I am a realist but I guess your novel is about zombies so realism isn't the focus. I would aim for a more primative living scenario using water wheels and windmills for things like irrigation and milling. Maybe eventually infrastructer and electricity would emerge but the transition from modern life to island isolation will be much more believable if you focus on the basics of human perseverence. I can imagine people sailing to the mainland (risking being eaten) to gather critical items like medications, basic tools, or maybe radios and batteries for communication but not to gather miles of wiring and computer components. Plus what the heck is going to be on the tube anyway, are the zombies going to start broadcasting the "Zombie Jersey Shore?" Just my two cents. Good luck with the story.

Is it possible for an American soldier to be assigned and stationed in Sweden?

AKO wrong rank??????

Hello everybody. My name is Sean i enlisted in the split ops training program in the army reserves a while ago. I am currently a junior in high school. i have been going to drill with my unit for a while (i enlisted on nov 4) i leave for boot camp on may 31st!! (im sorry if im giving random info.....it might help) i have been working on trying to get 2 promotions before i leave for basic. i enlisted as an E1 and a while ago i got a guy to join the Army reserves and was told by my recruiter that i would Reserve a promotion because of this. (this probably has nothing to do with it....).....now that ive bored you with my whole situation ill say the problem... i just checked my ako mail and while i was on ako i noticed that my rank had changed from E1 to E2 i don't know whats up with this! any advice on my situation. cause i don't want to go around on ako impersonating a rank that i don't think i am. ps i never was promoted i think cause i believe there would have been a ceremony and some paperwork.. i just want to get this whole thing cleared up. any suggestions. cause i think i will probably just email my nco about this and see what he has to say! (and please don't complain about my spelling i know it sucks but im tired) so thanks to anyone who can give me any suggestions about why ako says im an E2!

Is the on base housing the same for all single enlisted soldiers in the Army?

depends where you get stationed and what your housing company is like most the time NCO's get better barracks

What does it take to become nco?

It really depends on branch of service. I know for sure to become a marine nco, you must have a good rifle score, good pt score, do your MCI's, have good pros and cons (counseling marks) and time is service points. Also time in service must at least be a year. Normally people don't even have a high score at the end of a year but will get "meritoriously promoted" if they are outstanding people. These things add up and you rate a score. The score (cutting score) you will need to become an NCO depends on your job (MOS) For example, a radio operator usually has a low cutting score, so easy to get promoted. Honestly, with some jobs you can do bad in one area, like a bad rifle score, and still get promoted because the score is so low. But some jobs, like administration are high. Sometimes the score you need gets so high, they close the MOS so nobody gets promoted for that month. This is usually do to limited spaces. To some degree all branches work on a similar level as this. Keep in mind this is just for becoming a first level nco.

IS RETIREMENT FROM THE MILITARY A GOOD THING?

Ive been in 4 and got 3 left on this contract and i think about staying in at times cuz i like working with troops and preparing myself to be an NCO but people are kinda childish in the Army i mean even at 30sumthing they still act like kids and some of them are ******* E7's, but im still a POG will be 11B soon but could it be the best career move to do? i could retire at 38 hmmm... any vets got any and retiree's got any opinions?

What are some strategies for winning a lease for an apartment when there are multiple people interested?

You want to show up with as much information about you and your roommates as possible - and references to your responsibility and reliability. If you can prove to your potential landlord quickly and easily that you will take care of the property and will make his/her life easier, you'll be in a great position. Bring as many of your potential roommates with you as possible, so the landlord can get a sense for who you are as people.

Have u ever been smoked by a female NCO or officer?

Yes. It's not as big a deal as you think. In the Army, you're viewed as a soldier more so than you are by gender. Should a soldier out-rank you, then you can get 'smoked' regardless of gender.

Is this disobeying a NCO?

I am currently deployed right now. My NCO today told me that I need to put a tent up that fell overnight. The tent is never used and its for "relaxing". This NCO is an E-6. I then told him that I really need to take care of some legal issues and that I need to see legal for a POA. He told me no I can do it later. That is the answer I always recieve and it never happens. My squad leader (E-5) then came to me and asked what is going on. I told him my issue and that I need to get the POA. He told me that he was taking another soldier from my squad to legal! He told me to go hop in the truck and that I can go. I told him what the E-6 told me and he said he dont give a F*$k get in the truck. The E-6 knows that if I dont get this done I will lose $7000. So when I got back from legal he had a counseling statement ready for me. He said I disobeyed him and that it is not going to be tolerated. I informed him that my squad leader said I was going regardless what he said. I thought you always executed the last order given???? This E-6 brives me with stuff to want me to get promoted. I dont want to get promoted because I dont feel I'm ready to be a leader. He has offered that his son will do my ACCP for me and he will give me awards and other bs. Please help

Please help with any comments, no negative comments please

WHY DON'T A LOT OF INFANTRYMEN VETERANS RETIRE OUT OF THE MILITARY?

I ask this because I will soon became an Infantrymen 11B. I see a lot of high speed NCO's that just leave the Army and I think why???? They are the reason I take pride in the Army. Hooah!

DA Selected for recruiting?

I am still currently in iraq on my third tour with a total of 5 years of service, I wanted to be a recruiter and i feel I can best serve the army the next 3 years as one . I am a very social person and take pride in being a NCO. My only concern is my credit, It isn't horrible but it isn't good either. I had a car repo a year ago due to a divorce that i haven't even begun paying on. I still have my security clearance... Will this disqualify me from recruiting duty even though i was DA selected? thanks!

How can I avoid UCMJ action for patterns of misconduct, and request a rehabilitative transfer?

Sorry, but GRUMPY is correct here. From the sounds of it, you are a prime example of why I think it is crazy how fast the army promotes people. If it's one thing a good NCO learns is time management; not excuses. You are not in the states in garrison anymore. You are in a war zone. With that, the rules are more serious and for good reason. You are very lucky to just get counseling. As an NCO, you are held responsible for a lot of things you don't even know about. You are not being torn down. You are being corrected. If you don't see what you did was wrong, you have no business being an NCO. Additionally, what others get away with is not your concern. The fact is, you were sleep on duty and you were away from your place of duty for personal reasons. If you can't hold up your end of the log, don't pick it up. You have found out that you are not superman....the hard way. You've only been in theater for 2 weeks and probably still suffering from jet lag which why they probably put you on the shift you are on...to adjust. However, bad things can happen at night and YOU as the NCO are responsible. The fact that your troops knew where you are or are covering for you doesn't cut it. Why aren't these troops helping you with your paperwork? Why aren't you mentoring them to help you so they can become team leaders too. Not to be harsh, but you are finding out what happens when you try to be an "Army of one". Use this as a learning experience or do not re-enlist. Afterall, that IS what UCMJ action is supposed to be...a teaching tool; not punishment. Do some more homework on that. BTW, if you do get what you want, you will just be putting someone else in your place that may or may not be able to handle it or doesn't want to deploy away from their family as well.

Cross training from sec-fo to contracting?

I am currently in tech school for security forces, after some research i found that contracting is more of my interest. I am in the reserves and am in a 6 year enlistment. I was wondering what its going to take for me to cross train into contracting asap. As well as when i return to my base who do I need to go talk to in order to get started on the application process for cross training. I am just curious to see if there are any suggestions as to what direction i should head in order to get started asap. And if there are any officer or nco contracter's right now that may have any other suggestions as far as what I should do to set my self up for success in the carreer field.

Indian Politics - If Ramdev is RSS agent, does it make Congress free of corruption charges?

RSS is not involved in scam, corruption but Congress. The entire coterie , digvijay, manish tiwari, kapil sibal etc are there to protect the interests of money hoarders in foreign banks and trying to involve Baba in some legal tangle and divert the attention of people in other non issues and making the lives of people difficult to survive in the fair earnings by increasing the cost of essentials.

Why Can't Geographical bachelors, Non-IETs Live in single soldier housing?

I was told as a Soldier Re-enlisting for another six years that we would be provided single soldier quarters/housing while we are training by my retention NCO. When i got to this unit they immediately told those of us who are Non-IET that the only way that we would get single soldier barracks was if we were not in rolled in training but were actually stationed there. on top of that we are forced to live in the same barracks as the AIT soldiers. We are being treated like THEM! The command is always saying "There is no difference between you and those AIT soldiers". Like hell there is! They haven't been in for more than four years, they havent deployed for 15 months in Iraq and i am very sure I earned the right to be treated with respect and as an adult in this army.

How much would it cost to build a very sustainable home?

so i was just thinking of what kind of home i'd like when i grow up and i obviously want one that gets energy through renewable resources such as solar power, wind, and geothermal maybe. my question is how much it would be to build a new house with all this installed and also with good insulation and also the house be a passive solar system. and if someone could answer this too, is it possible to build a house anywhere you want? and also grow food by yourself?

Have u ever been smoked by a female NCO or officer?

in a way, yes. I've had both a female NCO and officer "smoke my joint". they loved the size of my cigar, and it took them an hour to smoke it completely....but they found it very satisfying. they though the first 'puff of smoke' was almost too much to take, but they were professionals and took it all in stride

Unless you live in the South, or in Cali, heated is the way to go. I live with the Rocky Mountains outside my window and at 6:30 am, a heated pool is a life-saver

Retention NCO offering 24 month Stability and 24 month reduction in MSO. I'm Skeptical.?

So im getting out after doing four years active duty, I have the option of 4 years in the IRR or in the NG/Reserves. The Retention NCO is offering 24 month Stability and 24 month reduction in MSO if I join either the ng/reserve. The problem is he hasn't really backed these programs up with any real documentation, and after doing some internet searching its looks like the MSO program was from 2006-2009 as an experiment and Ive found nothing in documentation about guaranteeing two years stability. Has anyone got out recently taken these options? If so is there a catch-22 in the contract somewhere? Or should i just risk it in the IRR?

When going to get artificial nails what should I ask for?

I want to go for the slightly fanned out look. I really like Tracy from Jerseylicious' french manicure with the pink & white, just not quite so fanned out. I also want them to have a more boxy look, rather than curved. This is only my second time getting artificial nails so I am slightly clueless. Also, should I go with acrylic, gel, solar..? And what are the price differences usually ? I'm just not sure how I should let the lady doing them know what I want. Thankss (:

I'm a recent high school graduate, heading off to University in the fall. Currently I have an internship at a solar company, but when I get home I need something to do. I've already organized my room, I'm scrap booking, beginning a novel, and I've even started watching the Tudors. But I need a creative or organizational project. Perhaps something involving photoshop, painting, art. I have lots of hobbies, I just need an idea for a project and I haven't found any inspiration despite my intensive online research. Any ideas? I have lots of interests, and I'm planning on majoring in Business and Psychology. Any ideas to cure my boredom?

What is the best solar/wind up charger?

I am going to Tanzania for 5 weeks, and I need a way of charging my Blackberry, iPod Classic and Pentax camera. I will rarely be around mains electricity, and it will be very unreliable if there is any at all. I have done some research but I can't get a clear picture of what is the best product. It needs to have adaptors that would fit the 3 devices I mentioned before, and not be too expensive. Any help would be greatly appreciated and if you have personal experience with any brand it would help enormously :)

Pool pump rattles loudly and stuff always floating on pool water, what is going on?

My solar isn't heating the pool. The little stuff on the pool never seems to get to the skimmer to be filtered even after days of 9.5 hours of the pump running on a 20K gal pool. The pool pump rattles like little pieces are in it. Yet, water chemistry is good. No algae. I even took the water to be tested a Leslies and they said it was textbook. At first I was thinking the pump wasn't working yet the pressure seems normal as well. I know we never had this problems with all these little things floating remaining in the pool until I use the net. Please any advise would really help. Thank you so much!

I feel like my NCO has crossed the line, Answers and tips please?!?!?

Ok heres what happened. I am a SPC in the Army. I'm stationed in Alaska. I was tasked for a duty on saturday. I haven't been here long and just recently bought a vehicle. I was having a lot of trouble finding this place and got lost. I called my supervisor (who is an E5) and told him I couldn't find the place and thought I was going to be late. Sure enough I ended up being 10 minutes late. My supervisor told me i was fine and I called so I wasn't in trouble. He understood I'm new to the area and was very understanding. After the detail my NCOIC (who is an E7) approached me. He told me to drop and with no questions asked I dropped and knew he was doing it because I was late. He was extremely mad. He was yelling so bad and smoked me for about 30 minutes. He was screaming the whole time telling me how I am a dirtbag. I was late so i manned up and understood this was just my corrective training. I have know problem accepting when I'm wrong and just did what I'm told, when I'm told, and how I'm told. He finally let me up. I told him I needed to pick my wife up because she had pneumonia. She had been in there a week and was ready to go home. The detail was over. My NCOIC told me I could not pick her up and had to report straight to batallion because I had to sleep there for a week. This just seemed so harsh especially because I was only ten minutes late, new to the area, and called my supervisor. I said permission to speak and he gave me permission. I said Sgt can I please pick up my wife first and just take her home. He new she has been in the hospital. He told me to shut the **** up and drop again. This really upset me and I dont understand why I could just take my wife home. Out of anger and frustration I said this is bullshit. I know that wasn't right but I felt like I had absolutely no control and dont understand why they wouldnt just let me take care of my wife. I know you are to always show respect to NCO'S and what I said was very unprofessional. I was so frustrated I actually almost cried. After I said, "this is bullshit" my NCO charged me like he was going to hit me. He is a very very big guy. My supervisor got in front of him and stopped him but he was trying so hard to get to me. I backed away because I weas honestly scared. He was so mad and you could tell he just wanted to put his hands on me. It literally took all of my supervisors strength to stop him. We were out side and it was a picnic for memorial day. He kicked a table really hard that was near me and it slid into my knee extremely hard. I instantly dropped to the ground in pain. I promise you I'm not exagerating. I told my command but it has been awhile and it seems like they are doing nothing about it. Today he even told me I have to do a 4,000 word essay on respect. I don't see how this can be accepted in the Army. I have always been told that no one can hurt you no matter what there rank. I requested to be moved to a different section to my 1sg but noting was done. He even told me today that there is no esacping him and he is going to make sure I'm his. My other NCO's in my section even call and ask me if I'm ok and say there sorry about what happened. It is so awkward at work now and feel like its affecting the way I preform duty. Is what my NCOIC did acceptable? Am I over reacting? Can I talk to JAG or IG about this situation or will this just make my life more miserable? I told my NCOIC I'm extremely depressed and thought about hurting myself because I'm so upset about the way things happened. He called me a little girl and said I dont have the balls to kill myself. I feel like he has crossed the line big time. Can someone please help me or give me advice on what I can do. I have never had issues with being late so this is not an issue with me. I have wonderful monthly counsleing statements and actually got a waiver to get my PFC early due to hard work. I'm so lost on what to do. If someone can help me, please help. I went to sick hall and my knee is swollen. The doc gave me a 30 day profile and said I have fluid in my knee and that i will have to be surgically removed. I also have to start physical therapy. Again if you have any information on what I can do please help me. God bless

Military RCT orders to NAVAL STATION in Marietta GA HELP?

You received orders and you are in the IRR. Wow. I am not sure if the USO will provide travel but your orders should cover travel expenses. If you have to pay out of pocket make sure that you get a receipt and submit it with your travel voucher. This seem a little odd......

My profile situation?

I had a 30 day Temp Profile, I was on the last day of it and required to go back in for a check up after it expired. We had a PT test on that day. I told multiple NCO's I was on a profile. I was told to do the PT test anyways. So I did it, passed everything but the walk, first time walking it and leg really started hurting the last two laps. Anyways, they flagged me and told me that the temp said I could do the alternate event. my question is at the bottom in comments it was written by the Doc that I was to walk at own pace and distance. Now I have looked at AR 21-20 and it says that you can do a alternate event IF the profile is over 90 days. Mine was a 30 profile, what should or can I do?

Why ‘RSS Submission’ is So Important?

Over the years, RSS has been widely used to run auto blogs, read blogs, get updates and much more. Many web developers out there still don’t submit their RSS feeds to popular submission websites. Query about RSS always tickling on my mind that why RSS Submission is so important?

How to address a Sergeant/Drill Sergeant via text?

I'm really thrown through a loop with my RSP deal. One of the NCO's, who used to be a drill sergeant, texts us all every month before drill. I never really know how to word my responses or questions. In person or on the phone I do the usual "Good morning/afternoon/evening, Drill Sergeant", but that seems awkward over text. Should I just skip the greeting and ask the question?

Can a bad pool pump affect roof solar heating of the pool?

Our pool has not heated up like it used to with our roof mounted solar. Our pool pump rattles as well, it ran hot before with no water going through it for some reason...so hot it melted the basket by the pump. I just don't know what else to look at to be the problem. Thank you!!

When will the electric/hydrogen car become the standard car?

Personally I don't think it will ever become a standard but theroreticly with technology I would say 85 or so odd years with the amount of money and energy expenditure it takes to build a hybrid car you have to drive 120,000 miles to start saving energy. On top of everything else the two largest oil reserves on earth have remained roughly untapped which one is in the US and the other being in Iraq the reason I bring this up because the world runs on supply and demand if there is a steady supply and a steady demand it won't change

Since when is it a crime to be an anarchist?

It is a crime because the very ideology is seen as a threat to the US government, and the greedy *ssholes that run the government will never relinquish their power, and will do everything to see that Anarchists are demonized, spied on, and eventually "taken care of", if they make to big of a scene.

If you are on a Profile and you have to take a pt test does it still count?

My husband had a pt test last week and failed. He has just gotten back from Poland and was not in shape. He has trouble with his knee, if he uses it to much... to much running it acts up. He has been on profile for it several times. This morning he went to sick call once again to get some answers to find out why his knee is hurting. He has to start going to physical therapy, and is on a no running profile for one month. He has another pt test tomorrow and his nco's are giving him trouble saying its not going to count, and that he only went to sick call to get out of the pt test. He still wants to take it, and it still counts, but he cant run he can only walk. What are the regulations on this? Will it count? We are trying to pcs out of here in a month, and they are doing anything they can to make it tough for him. We are trying to find the regulations on this to show them, but we cant. Thank you!!

What happens when a collections agency sells your account to another collections agency?

So NCO just sold my account/debt to Plaza Associates. NCO reported this debt to the three credit bureaus and i was working with them to take it off. So now that they sold it, will my credit report have two collections agencies for the same debt, or will NCO just fall off and be replaced by Plaza? Plaza seems to be easier to work with and may remove the derogatory item from my credit report, but i want to make sure that I don't pay the money before NCO is off too. Advice please.

Should I contact my CONGRESSMAN?

No matter what happens , yes you need to contact your Congressman because them calling you names and telling everyone about your situation is sooo super wrong on so many levels and this could even lead to suicide for someone who is as strong as you are. You could take this to as high as the president you need to and feel that you should.

Who do you think is going to win the Ultimate fighter- Ramsey or Tony?

I think Tony will win. He is a more technical fighter. Doesn't waste a lot of swings or energy. You could tell Ramsey was gassed in his semi fight and all he did was rush in, push against the cage and try to recover. I don't like either one and I doubt either one that wins will make it far in the UFC. Soon as one loses 3 in a row, their UFC days will be over.

I have a new solar cover for my pool?

Barracks/housing inspections?

Lord knows how many times I've heard this question in one form or another. Each post and sometimes each unit (depending on the situation) varies on this matter. On some installations or within various units the unit itself does not control the barracks what so ever. However, general good order and discipline must be maintained at all times. The whole "good order and discipline," is usually where chain of commands get to do pretty much whatever they like within reason. For soldiers who reside to what is typically "one-post housing," they usually can have their homes/residences inspected. For soldiers who reside off the installation, I have seen them get their residences inspected as well. From what I've seen in the past, it get's magnified or brought to surface through a negative incident. For example, the post CSM passing by barracks and finding X items not to his liking or within standards, post housing contacting the chain of command for X reasons like damage done to rooms by their soldiers, civilian land lords contacting chain of commands for X reasons. Typically what you'll find should be posted somewhere (typically secured to your door, on a bulletin board somewhere, something you should have been presented to read prior to signing for the room, etc., etc.) stating such intentions as "soldiers who reside in this barracks will have their rooms clean, presentable, free of trash, and ready for inspection at any time. Soldiers leadership (Team Leader, Squad Leader, etc., etc.) will or can make regular or random inspections to ensure good order and discipline is maintained at all times and safety of soldiers is ensured." Again though, for a regulation, I doubt you'll find one since so many individual barracks, units, and installations are controlled or managed in so many different ways.

Riots in Vancover???????????????????

they did it in (im guessing) 1994 its nothing new, i remember how bad it was, they show it on the spike channel all the time. One of the worst riots in that town ever. So im not sure why everybody is shocked about it, they should have known.

How can military personnel afford to have an apartment or house?

i was looking at the 2011 pay grade for military personnel. i realized that people that just got in 4yrs or less don't make enough to live on their own. so how do people in the military who are in active duty, but not in combat, make a living? How do NCO's and lower ranking CO's who work behind desks make enough for house, gas, food, and other expenses?

Why are 99.87% of all creations, inventions, discoveries made by Whites?

It seems as tho nearly all modern day items come from the Christian Whites and Jews. The printing press, eyeglasses, telescopes, microscopes, guns, vaccines, antibiotics, Xrays, electricity, the radio, typewriter, computer, TV, Boom boxes, basketball, football, baseball, golf, autos, bicycles, airplanes, gasoline engines, diesel engines, jet engines, cameras, discovery of oil and the use of, refining oil, all the elements of the periodic table (except those known to the ancients), the transistor, solar electric cells, flush toilets, air conditioning machines, the cotton gin, caterpillar tractors, lasers, microwaves, the atom bomb, plastics, the list is almost endless.

What can I do to diffuse my NCO from prying into my personal life?

There are a ton of things you can do....consult your concerns with the supervisor, let him know where you stand on social functions, prying into your personal life is out of bounds, having you perform more additional duties because of failure to participate is unacceptable. now, after you have consulted with him and things keep going the wrong direction, make sure you keep notes, date, and time of your counseling session, next step is to use your chain of command. in the end if all fails you still have options: a) request for transfer to new unit, b) the Inspector General is another route you can go, however, have your ducks in line, C) social actions would be another resort. social actions is simply a base organization that is used to intervene when there is problem in unit that needs to be resolved. the commander and 1st shirt are brought into light which they already know about the problem because you used the chain of command. social actions ensure the commander or 1st shirt are communicating the concerns to the supervisor. take your pick but be very cautious.

What do you think should be done with teenagers who shoot & kill others?

Sounds like gang activity. The police or some other law enforcement need more informants as to when and where gang activity is taking place so they can be ready for them and take them down. The only thing that is going to stop the shooters is if they are the ones getting shot and preferably killed. I know it sounds crude, but that's how it used to be done.

Why do i get pain that seems intestinal after i eat crunchy nut bites?

Military Actions now in 5 countries. Dems, is that what you Hoped for out of Obama's Hope & Change campaign?

We Iranians always keep saying Obama said many things before the election, but after that there was no change. We knew that many Americans voted for him because of such sayings and whenever Iran was asked about the relationship between the two countries after Obama becomes the president, the answer was: If he will really remain on what he said about changing the policies (specially in Iraq, Afghanistan, crimes happening in Guantanamu and Abu ghraib...) we can think about it. But we knew that they were only some slogans, and even if he wanted to do something about changing the policies, he couldn't and can't. Because the problem is: all of America's presidents are like some dolls controlled by some policies behind the scene. They can't change, even if they want to; because they are not allowed. And so act like the same. So the US government always and at any time has been very bad (especially in foreign policies)....

Does a chapter 10 (in lieu of trial) assess a jail sentence?? and how does it work?

Anyone with a child with this disorder?

My niece who is almost 5 has Asperger's Syndrome. I know a few facts about it but not a lot. When she comes over she plays by herself and doesnt really like to talk to people. But recently the only thing she is talking about is cars and the solar system which I think is pretty weird. Anyway can someone please give me more info on how to interact and handel her. Shes a pretty good and calm kid but she likes to do the same things everyday like everyday she eats by 6 is in bed by 7 and goes to bed at 8. If not she throws a fit and doesnt really like change. Im going to baby sit her for a week because her parents are going out of town and I could really use some advice and info about what I should do and shouldnt do and the best way to handel her if she does throw a fit or wont intract with me. I would like to have a realationship with her.

EAS'ing Marine Trying to pick up Corporal?

If what you say is fact, the personnel office will submit your info for a back date of March. If your chain of command is not taking care of this for you, you can request to go to the next level. You have been in the Marines for almost 4yrs now, and if you have not made Corporal, it is nobody fault but yours. I do know how hard it is for enlisted to get promoted in the Marines. I knew many of my troops that got out as Lance Corporals. If you have made the cutoff score, then you will be pinned according to what the Headquarters date your rank. If it is in error, just submit paperwork for it to be corrected. If the higher office thinks there was an error, then you will be back dated. You should do all of your MCIs and not just the ones needed for promotion. These courses can be transferred to College credits and help you get your degree faster. Good luck to you. Hopefully you have a plan for your future outside of the Marines. Let me tell you there are not many jobs out there. I am retired at 40. My advice is to make sure you want to really get out. The War will not go on Forever.

Med board question for prior service NCO.?

I am prior servise Navy, of four years active duty, and now over two years active Army. I have possible compartment syndrom in both of my lower legs along with plantar fascitis. This was all due to the "new" running technique that was taught and forced in the Warrier Transition Course. Now, I cannt hardly march, ruck, and deffinetly cannt run. Is this something that can result in a med board? Are there benifits that would result.? I.E., a percentage. I never tried to make a claim on the knee the Navy operated on, because it is better. However, this is deffinetly the Army's mistake. Any advise on how to go about this?

Why does obama place blame on people places and things? he should be solving problems not crying about them?

All he is capable of is spending all the taxpayer's money, then borrowing more to spend on his liberal agenda of buying votes. He is BORROWING OVER 120 BILLION DOLLARS A MONTH and putting it on the taxpayers credit card. He has his worshipers believing all is well if only the Republicans would let him raise tax on a few rich people. The liberal press is helping him with this outright LIE. I guess liberals don't take math or economics in school?

Chances of getting into OCS.?

I just enlisted for a three year contract with the US Army as an E3 Petroleum Supply Specialist and need to know if I have a realistic chance of making it into OCS. First I'm 26, African-American, and I have 78 credit hours. I've worked in factory for the last five years. Prior to that, I was a Package Handler at Fedex and a college student with a GPA of 2.1. Before that I was home-schooled and have a GED. I have about 11,000 in outstanding credit debt that WILL be paid off by the time I leave AIT. Five speeding tickets in 8yrs. Lastly, I scored an 86 on the ASVAB and my lowest individual skill score was 123. I have no problem retiring as an NCO but I would like to know if I could make 2ND LT. If I can make it, what can i do to improve my chances? I already plan to enroll in the green-to-gold program but I can't find anyone who actually went through the program. What can I do to be a effective officer candidate?

Is climate change an excuse for a false economy or our lives are that boring, we're talking about the weather?

With subtle changes in our climate and maybe our short memories of drier summers and wetter winters, i fear the big pushers of climate change have something to gain from the fear campaign. how many solar companies, insulation, water regeneration, desal plants, prius manufacturing plants, (possibly the most terrible car ever built, can't see out the back window) and the wind factories. No doubt we could do it cleaner but who's going to pay for it. well it's a "if you will, i will" state of affair. honestly i'll say i'm not keen to pay if the guy next door isn't paying. we all work hard to enjoy our time as best we can and provide for our kids. maybe it's as easy as not being too greedy? i don't know but i never wanted to rule or damage the world, i just want to enjoy my little time here.

Is the North Atlantic Current Slowing down? Or is it even there?

Hi well i've become very interested in this over the past year and the more and more i watch the current the less prevalent it becomes even between december and now it has slowed down and by looking at the latest images it looks as though its barely there now? http://polar.ncep.noaa.gov/ofs/viewer.shtml?-natl-cur-0-small-rundate=latest It seems like theres a bit of it there but i doubt that would really affect us? Will it ever return again or will it keep slowing down until its no longer exists? I've noticed as well that over the past four years each winter is lasting longer and colder for example the winter before last winter was cold but it only stayed below freezing for three weeks this winter was even colder and we even had about two foot of snow which lasted about 6weeks that is extremely long for the uk (central-north of it) and something has to had caused this. May it have been the gulf stream? And if it keeps slowing down will this winter be even colder? This summer is really cold too (well here in the north (ni) anyway) we had snow on the hills (500m) three weeks ago which is unheard of in ni in the summer! People are saying that this winter will be even colder due to the jetstream being south of us (its mean't to be north of us in the summer) and the low solar activity is this just a myth or is it likely? i hope so!

Space beyond space!?!?!?

there is no end of space. but you can see the end of space or the universe when you can get liberation from the world. i mean when you get the enlightenment. with scientific reason, if you can use the 100% power of human brian there is nothing you do not know in the universe. by the way you also can know the end of space too. so if you can able to awake from the existence you can give the conclusion of universe.

Is this disrespecting an NCO by extension? Army.?

NCO gave me (an E-4) delagation of authority (class leader). When the Training Instuctor gives me the class for dismissal everyone starts getting up to leave I haven't even said anything yet so I told them to sit back down. Some soliders got an attitude with me. So, next formation I want to tell them their disrespecting not only me but the NCO by extension can anyone help with referance material and is it really disrespecting the NCO who delagated me the athority?

Here is a Spiritual question for the Big Bang Theory...?

Have you ever looked at earth and all the other planets in Our Solar System and can you explain why they all are perfectly ROUND. Now this looks like A Great Design by the Great Designer to me rather than a big explosion of everything flying around, then gathering..

Can you get in any trouble for failing an APFT, because you weren't trying?

If you fail an APFT you will get flagged. If you fail an APFT on purpose you can get an Art 15 for disobeying a lawful order Art 92.

Would my buddy have to pay back his bonus?

I got a soldier who is a good friend f mine who is getting chaptered and did get a bonus but only recieved a lil bit of it and our NCO told us that he would only have to pay back only the portion of it that he didn't recieve but another NCO a SSG said he wouldn't pay anything back because to get your bonus all you had to do was complete basic and AIT, also how would they make him pay it would they take it out in whole or how would it work and is my NCO correct on how what he would pay back and who is right theSSG or the other NCO?(it is a sign on bonus not a reenlistment and it is a honorable discharge if that helps).

Military discharge/depression?

I am currently in South Korea and applied for a curtailment. I seen a counselor and I have been diagnosed with depression, ptsd, and insomnia. I am not on any meds for this as of right now. I keep having major mood swings mainly with anger at others. I have to force myself up to go to work and even to shave, this is not normal to me. I even snap at my NCO's and I don't why. I really just want out and feel normal again. I don't think I am mentally capable of being in the Army. I guess I got ptsd from my childhood and everything else from here. Can I get a medical discharge as well as keep my GI Bill? Serious answers please thanks..

Chapter or something else from the army, what do i do?

If an Army doctor recommended you for an EPTS chapter, chances are 99.9% that you'll be medically separated. Your company NCO is not in a position to tell you anything -- your company commander is the decision authority. If you're concerned about it, the best thing you can do is talk to your First Sergeant. He/She should be informed of what's going on anyway.

How does Temperature affect the function of a charge controller in a Solar energy system?

Promotion to e-4 with waiver?

has anyone does this? is it frowned upon? does everyone do this? I thought I heard once you only have one waiver in your army career- the waiver can only be used from promotions from e-2 to e-4 right? to move up the nco ranks you can't use the waiver?

TO ALL MARINES! HAS THE MARINE CORPS CHANGED?

I ask this question to any current and prior Marines that just separated from the service. I am currently a Soldier at the rank of E4 with one deployment under his belt. I don't ask this to offend anyone but I am asking this to inform myself for I am seriously considering joining the Marine Corps! I truly respect the Corps and the proud history that they have. First off let me tell you my Army experience, there is absolutely No discipline whats so ever! Nobody gets at Parade rest for NCO's except for myself and the 4 soldiers I have underneath me.The 1SG does not seem to be serious or strict at all. When the 1SG came out her office and saw a E5 sleeping at the desk all she did was take pictures and giggle (Yeap shes a female) WTF!! seriously that's not what i want in the military! I want Honor, Pride, Camaraderie, Espirit de Corps, and especially Discipline!!! My concern is that I will get out and see the same **** in the Marines that I experience in the Army. I will do combat arms in the Corps in a heartbeat but by the time i get out i will be at least E5 with 7 years in service... what should I do? Please help guide this young man Marines

Are there any health risks associated with solar panels?

Hi, I've recently bought a solar charger for my iPod. Are there any risks such as radiation, skin cancer etc. associated with it?

Navy BMT? Scared a little bit! Gas chamber, communal showers, nco's yelling?

How is it like in the gas chamber? Can you pass out? Does it make you difficult to breathe? What about communal showers? Can you get up 15-20 minutes before everyone else gets up? I heard whatever you do in BMT, YOU'RE ALWAYS WRONG! and the nco's will always have a reason to yell at you. Is this true? What else should I know about BMT?

Should business success depend on winning over customers, not on winning over members of Congress?

Yeah, Barf, Pawlenty really hit a home run with that one. The idea that business shouldn't be about winning over elites in the government class makes leftists shudder. That's their entire worldview, if a man is out engaging in an activity, whatever that may be, the left thinks it needs to be taxed, regulated, or both.

What is a good 12v charging voltage?

On a small project of mine I have 8watts of solar panels and on a really sunny day the voltage is 12.90 is this a good charging voltage

UCMJ - Marching at Attention During Red/Black Flag?

Is it illegal/in the UCMJ that if an NCO places a flight at attention and marches them across base during a Red/Black Flag? It was 101 degrees with 47% humidity and this Military Training Leader was being a complete *** and decided to make our flight march back to the dorms instead of being at at ease because we didn't have our dress. Is this illegal, or can he do that?

Can A SPC smoke A PFC?

Probably not , I imagine it would take a hotter flame than a Bic lighter to get him lit . And the smell, lawd have mercy , the smell of burning flesh is horrendous.

Question about solar system death?

So I understand that the Sun with become a re giant, frying the inner planets, but what about the outter planets?

Heres a question based on theory and speculitive events on E.T's?

Your facts are wrong. It is extremely rare to find a scientist who believes in UFOs. For you to claim "most" of them do is foolish beyond belief.

Can someone of the same rank as me counsel me?

Since he had situational authority, he can counsel you. However, if he's trying to make a big deal about it after the fact (and you have the backing of your NCO) then you can probably appeal the issue to your Platoon Sergeant. He may even send you to the Platoon Leader to plead your case, but I don't expect it to go anywhere beyond that. If the counseling is unwarranted and just a case that this other person brought up out of spite, it could have repercussions for them for acting unprofessionally.

Earth battery solar boost?

Hi. Not sure what you are driving at but the core of the Earth could be used as the iron part and VERY large copper/zinc mass could be buried near the core. The cost would be far greater that conservation or technology improvements. My opinion.

If we focused on renewable sources for energy, making it more efficient, wouldn't that solve the problem?

In theory, yes. But renewables rely too heavily on variables for 100% use. That's why we need to continue Research on nuclear fusion.

My last interview was held with an NCO and he said because ive done really well with all my tests so far hell bump me along abit ????

Would this idea be too out there?

I was just thinking, but what if there was a book where the main character lives a normal life on earth and stuff until it slips that the government was keeping a huge secret from the people, and it turns out that every particle on this earth is another world, like another solar system. So it's a world inside a world inside a world and so on. And the particle they're on is about to be exterminated so she has to find a way out to survive. Eventually the story plot would probably get too twisted and mangled up because it could get really confusing, if you know what I mean. It was just an idea I was thinking about, but I think it would be hard to write a book on. What do you think?

Is there a good way to improve my leadership qualities?

You have obviously realised that there is an issue, now what you need to ask yourself is why is there an issue. Is is perhaps your style of leadership? Generally within the army we say there are three styles of leadership, autocratic, democratic and "laissez faire" (from the french meaning literally leave well alone), which is generally considered a poor style. However a good leader should and will use all 3 even the last one. The trick is knowing when to! What you are experiencing is nothing knew and I wish could give you more, unfortunately it is a case of learning from your mistakes.

I always fantasize about having relationships with older men?

I'm 18 and the whole time I was in high school I always fantasized over my teachers and now i'm in the Marine Corps I fantasize over my NCO's is this weird?

Ethnic groups in the military?

You really don't get out much. "Did you know that the 7th Special Forces Group's area of operations is Central and South America?" This is accurate. MrsJVB's assumption is incorrect and has not been the case since Vietnam. The percentages of the races in the military are very close to what they are in the overall civilian world. Therefore, the military is just as diverse as the total population of the US. However, there are pockets of certain groups because they have skills that enhance the military's ability to perform its mission. Therefore, since the 7th operates mainly in Spanish speaking nations, it only makes sense to have folks that are native speakers and understand the culture in order for the total force to be more successful. Not saying some white guy from Iowa or Kansas couldn't do the job, but how good would that guy be infiltrating East LA for example? Not very. In other words, the diversity of the military is our strength as a nation. That being said, it is fair speculation as to why we were getting our butts kicked at the beginning of the war was because we had very few Arabic speaking Muslims in the military and still don't have enouh. Caucasian arrogance (the majority...as you said, caused this. If you don't understand your enemy or even speak his language, how can you hope to defeat him? Gen. Armstrong Custer found that out the hard way. Its why we used the Navajo code talkers in WW2. Not racist; a fact.

The Marine Corps & Marriage?

So im 18, coming up on my first year in the Corps, and next month I'm marrying my H.S. sweetheart. Picking up Lcpl in three months. Is it a good deal? I really want this to work out, and not end up like every other nco who's going through a divorce. If we both work hard for US, it will work out right?

How many times can a prior enlisted retake the ASVAB exam?

Just remember that your most recent score is obtained not the highest. So if you take it and score high that's kept. And if you retake it and score lower, those scores are now your current scores.

I think I just lost my best Friends. Am I Stupid?

I am in the Marine Corps. and picked up the rank of Corporal in January. With becoming an NCO you have to leave your friends and peers behind. I however never felt like an NCO. I met one of my best friends in Korea.. a Marine too, but a Lance Corporal.. lower than I. I got really close to him and my other best friend.. Nothing could stop us from being together and we had plans for the future and never leaving each other. However, about a month ago, my command has been riding us to seperate and stop seeing each other. We work in the same work space, but as I said before, I dont really feel like I deserve, or am supposed to be a Leader. The command finally got to me and I stopped hanging around with them. This lasted only one day because it was so hard to let them go. I started talking to them again but the command got really into it and I just stopped last Thursday. It has been three days now and I am losing my mind. I hate doing anything and cant stand to leave my room on account of I might see them again. I wrote them a letter yesterday and gave it to them. She then came to me and told me to chose my own friends and not let other people tell me what to do, calling me a ***** and saying **** you to my face. I then later today got a hurtful letter that made me think a lot.. so I then wrote one back saying I was ending everything we ever had for good. This was ten minutes ago and I dont think they read it yet. I just slid it under the door. Did I **** up??

Can a NCO that start Terminal Leave in a Month be flagged. And his terminal leave be revoked?

I have a Junior Team Leader (E5) that once he began to have less then 6 months left, started to show lack of discipline and bearing, and finally blatantly disrespected his Squad Leader. His terminal leave has been approved and starts on the 11th of June. Never delt with this type of insubordination before any advise.

Army Awards point value?

Have you heard of one of the Fukushima worker dies after exposion to radiation?

its unlikely to be linked to radiation poisoning. radiation poisoning is nasty painful and slow death. the amount of radiation absorbed by each worker is ot likely to be enough for a fatal dose. they will have been given iodine to counteract any radiation poisoning that might occur. i think once again public ignorance will lead to hysteria over something that is perfectly natural. there is no need to panic about it.

Need help coming up with a VERY unique event for my story!?

"The Invasion of Heaven" sound cool. The video game Dragon Age gets into something like this, with insatiable mages invading heaven and ruining it because they are full of sin. You can get into some philosophical **** about the hubris of man and never being satisfied and constantly seeking new frontiers and so forth.

What time do rooftop solar panels give back surpless electricity?

I've been told that when you don't use the electricity supply from the solar panels, the electricity is stored up, then at a certain time later in the day, any electricity not used will be fed back into the grid. Is this correct, and if so what time?

Should we end NATO? Thoughts?

The alliance must be disbanded as the purpose of its existing (the cold war military strategy) is now history. Further, as a result of the same, we have seen that alliance members today having divergent goals/ strategies which can eventually lead to the breaking of the same in a not so amicable way.

Water heater with no water pressure?

I'll be moving into a yurt within the year and while I have damned near everything figured out...hot water eludes me. Yes, I have a wood stove and heating water on it works, but I'm talking about a nice shower, you know? I already use those camping black bags that heat water by the sun, but it doesn't work too well out here in the Northwest. I've been looking at propane heaters, but they require water pressure, which I don't have at the moment. I collect rain water and am no where near city utilities. The most luxurious thing I have is three solar panels to work my computer equipment ;) Any thoughts on a way to heat mass amounts of water? I live in Washington State...I HAVE water.

How many Solar panels?

How many solar panels would it take to run an electric motor the needs 480 volts and pulls about 45 to 50 amps?

Could someone tell me how to convert html to rss?

RSS is generally provided in XML format. In order to provide both the most native way is to use a dynamic language like ruby. Ruby has a function in it's web library to return a response as html or as xml, I would imagine its possible in other languages also.

How can i deal with NCO financial if i don't have a debt?

I have been getting phone calls from 8002400381. First time i didn't answer, then i looked up their number online and found that they are a debt collector company. i know that i don't owe any debt. So i didn't answered the last 2 calls from them. i think they will keep calling me. How can i deal with them in this case? Can this be a sign of identity theft?

Cheap KOI Pond aeration needed.?

We have a pond that is 80 wide by 8 deep at the most. We've inherited about 3 dozen KOI fish and I want to aerate the pond. I'm interested in a low cost pumping sytem to perform the task and looking for ideas to perhaps just have a hose at the bottom emitting fresh air, without the high energy consumption of a submersible pump. My electricity costs are high enough, and I don't want to spend hundreds on solar or windmill systems. Besides, it only needs to run during the hottest months. Suggestions puh-leezz?

Global warming and solar brightening?

I generally agree with Jeff (other Jeff) except I don't see how the Earth's magnetic field has anything to do with the jet stream. The Earth's and Sun's magnetic field periodicity is not that similar. The sun shifts every 11 years, where the Earth's is more on a scale of a few hundred thousand years. I realize that alarmists would love to blame any cooling in the 1970s on aerosols but that is nothign but convenient speculation. Since we don't have accurate measurements of how much we added to aerosols and I am skeptical of measurements since the 1970s, no one knows IMO. When you say "at the rate it is currently", you need to define a time interval such as the last year or last 10 years. "Currently" really doesn't mean anything or at least I doubt that is what you are asking.

Any good factual shows about Space and the Universe?

I love Brian Cox's Wonders of the Universe and Wonders of the Solar System, are there any other good documentaries with similar subject matter you would recommend?

How to create a Solar Power System ?

It'a quite a unique idea. But anyway building solar powered light by the use of mother board is quite eccentric. There are many instructions for the step-by-step do-it-yourself solar in the net but not like this. Maybe you should consult someone who's really into solar panels. This needs a lot of digging.

Everybody i need help disseminating this dream i just had about the future!?

Well. Mostly, Likely, Your dream is trying to tell you something. If it's that much detail in it and that much scientific stuff. If your a science freak .( Not to be mean or anything). Then, It's probably letting you know your calling. To be a scientists, or to work with science if your not already out of school yet. as in college or to go back to do some scientific research about osmosis and data and what not. Etc. So, It's probably giving you a great sign of your future on what you wanna be or trying to open your eyes up on something. You know?

Can you progress all planets in a Solar Return by 1 degree due to the horizon's movement of 1 degree per day?

No, every planet have its duration to transit from one sign .to others. Thogh sun travels one degree per day but moon two hours one degree, saturn one month one degree & so on, the major changes are happening of any imcident depends in majority of moon that too in Gochar(Existing), moon calculation is mainly considered while predicting. Rest of the planets too are considered but the speed of individual planet is individual nothing to do with sun or other planets.

Will my case get dismissed?

Ok this is kind of a long story so please bare with me. Back in November my husband and I got into an altercation and there was some pushing and shoving going on nothing more. My husband was tired of all the fighting in front of the kids and called the cops thinking that i would go to jail just to prove a point to me i guess.Well the cops came out we BOTH got arrested even though my husband didn't want to press charges I guess since there were kids here it wasn't his choice. So we went and talked to a detective and then were booked in jail for the weekend. We have been in and out of court several times and we have a NCO placed for the time being. Neither one of us took the plea cause we didn't want to testify against each other. Neither one of us has ever been in trouble with the law or had any previous record of the cops being called out. My attorney has filed a motion to dismiss and the Prosecutor has attempted to give us another plea bargain. I really dont want a Felony on my record just due to one bad altercation. If we dont take the plea it will go to trial. Im scared and I want my family back together this has gone on way too long. Do you think the judge will dismiss the case or will it go to trial? Please help!!!! I even wrote a letter to the Prosecuting attorney asking her to please drop the charges and that we were willing to take counseling classes at our cost to better cope with problems that arise in my marriage as they do in all. It will be 6 months on May 13th from the day we were arrested . I just cant believe they are trying to make this a high profile case. Also the prosecting attorney is also the same one for my husband that seems like a conflict of interest to me.

Supermassive blackholes aren't actually that dense?

I am a recent college grad who graduated with a 2.7 GPA. I played college baseball for four years and a year of professional baseball. I will have no problem handling the PT tests. My AFQT score is a 97 with a GT of 132. I have a letter of recommendation from a State Representative, a Circuit Court Judge, an NCO Vietnam/Korean War Veteran, and my college baseball coach. Given the information I have just told you, what do my odds look like to be accepted for Army OCS?

(HTML) How to change my Tumblr RSS feed tab into an 'Ask Me Anything' tab?

Well, the link works at least. In the coding, try changing {RSS} to {ASK} and then change "RSS" to "ASK" and see if that does anything

Rate my pokemon team, 0-10, what should i do better?

One thing you should do is teach your Rayquaza an ice type move. It helps if it is against flying or dragon type pokemon. I would rate it a 9.9

What causes the wavelength of incoming solar energy to change when reflected from a surface?

When soil reflects incoming solar radiation, the emitted radiation is a shorter wavelength than the incoming wavelength. Is this to do with the amount that is absorbed or is there some other mechanism driving the change in wavelength? Does the emitted wavelength differ depending on the reflecting surface (e.g. ice, forest canopy etc) or is it more or less the same?

The universe? time? stuff like that?

As far as i know the universe doesn't have a distinct shape. All anybody really knows is that the edge of space is constantly expanding and that outside the edge there is absolutely nothing (in other words if you think of it, it doesn't exist). And about that whole no time in space thing.....that's a little tougher to understand. Basically, the faster something is moving in space the less time it experiences. This doesn't mean a couple miles an hour faster, this is on a scale of getting closer and closer to the speed of light. Hope this helped a little and didn't end up making you more confused :)

In the Army, when does time on station start?

I know this seems simple, but the question is, does it start the day I sign in to the post? From the day I start to in-process the installation? The unit? I want out of this assignment, and I am looking at minimums, and this is the one I am caught on. I am not boo hoo about it. I have been to other units and loved it, but this one has a whole lot of "Paper NCOs" and I refuse to partake in training dirt-bags to be dirt-bag NCOs. I know its sad as an NCO I do not know this, but I am seeking out the answer from others with more knowledge than I possess.

Can you wear a warrior bracelet in Army uniform?

I'm talking about the bracelets that are made out of the green 550 cord. I had an NCO tell me I couldn't wear it in any uniform. The bracelet was giving to me by a soldier who got killed in Iraq

Can accusing Ramdev to be RSS agent, free congress from corruption charges?

It is an old trick of congress to debase and slur others whenever being attacked for corruption or other charges.

Can I set up a DIY solar system in Utah and still stay connected to the grid?

I purchased my home last year and would like to build myself some solar panels to supplement my energy use. The purpose would be to reduce my power consumption and power bill. I am not interested in, or capable of, spending several thousand dollars for a pro-installed system. I am not interested in being completely off-grid. Net metering is not necessary, but would be nice. I have experience with electrical and worked with my father (master electrician) for several years wiring homes. What are my realistic options to make a substantial dent in my bill? There appear to be many regulations concerning grid-tie systems. How do I get around them and still be safe? I don't particularly care if some bureaucrat says my system is safe. Thanks.

  1. Will these grades be enough to get into medical school?

    Medicine is extremely competitive. Some candidates with all A's and A*s at GCSE and A level still get rejected. Work experience is crucial and you must complete so many hours of working in a hospital or medical environment to apply. Universities may not be impressed by prioritising your research into the 12th planet over your GCSEs as they may think you are not passionate about your studies which is essential to study many years for a medicine degree. Providing you get AAAA or HIGHER to stand out among many straight A/A* candidates, you may have a chance. There is always the option to study a degree in biomedicine as it provides a gateway into a medicine degree after completion. Best of luck.

    Why is Gov Christie only repaying tax payers for 1 of his 35 helicopter joy rides?

    I hope they charged him a "fuel premium" for all the extra weight they pull getting his obese self off the ground. Oh, yeah, he has a vacuum between the ears, maybe that makes up.

    How much power can Solar Power give?

    The main advantage to solar energy is that, unlike fossil fuels, it is inexhaustible. Not only that but there is little to no harmful emissions associated with renewable energy. Wind power is a form solar energy as well. Currently solar power is used for residential homes primarily. Flat solar panels feed energy into the cities power grids, effectively running the homes meter backwards for as much power as the panel produces. To answer your question about the tower, it is estimated that a tower that would produce 100 MegaWatts would have to be 1000 m high and 20 KMs in area. The largest one currently constructed can power about 10,000 homes (http://www.treehugger.com/files/2009/04/worlds-largest-solar-power-tower-spain.php). To give you a scale coal plants produce about 3.5 gigawatts in comparison. Currently wind energy shares a similar efficiency rating (20.3%). But countries like China, Germany, and the United States all produce 25+ Gigawatts of power through wind farms. Currently it seems unfeasible to run a city on only solar energies. There are other renewable resources such as tidal energy and geothermal energy but those are rather lacking as well. Look into nuclear energy because it is rather efficient and with the proper safety methods and waste disposal methods, it can be considered a good alternative to fossil fuels. Hope that helps.

    Why do socialist leaders sexually harrass and rape women?

    Progressives appear to think they have rights over the people; we see it with the deaths of 100 million people (and the desire to continue it), the idea that their crimes are excusable (political correctness, social justice...). And the idea that they do it for the betterment of mankind; and in the end they claim to be a misunderstood victim, and the true victims are claimed to be the instigators.

    Are there any health risks associated with solar panels?

    Hi, I've recently bought a solar charger for my iPod touch. Are there any health risks such a's skin cancer or radiation associated with it? If so, do I have to handle it with care? ie wearing gloves or something

    I can't decide if i should enlist or try to become an officer?

    first off im in high school i get A's and B's so im fairly good in school so im relatively sure i could get into college. i want to go into the marine corps as infantry so if i enlisted i would go infantry and as an officer i would go infantry. now that's out of the way, i cant decide if i should enlist after high school or go on to college and go through nrotc? my parents have told me it's not an option and i must go to college and i can't enlist. i want to be in a leadership role and out in the field not behind a desk, but it would take awhile as enlisted to be in a leadership role wouldn't it? im in jnrotc and im actually a petty officer and im fairly decent at leading and people seem to enjoy me and like me being in charge so im told( i know being in combat is completely different im just saying im peoples person). i just don't know what to do at this point please help and give me suggestions because it seems like all the nco's love their job and hate on the officers and vise versa, so which is really better?

    Is it difficult to get into active duty Civil Affairs?

    Not at all if you have what it takes, talk to your NCO and see where they can direct you. You have to ask to get.

    My boyfriend is a Sergeant and NCO in the Army?

    What exactly does the job of an NCO consist of? Is he responsible for watching suicidal inmates? Right now, a member of his unit was AWOL for 70+ days. He was brought back to base and since then he claims he has to supervise or 'babysit' him. I really want to believe what he tells me. However, It seems that almost every weekend something comes up so we get no time together, and we live two hours apart. Can someone educate me on exactly what he is responsible for, and what else I might need to be aware of in the future?
