Should we have faith in military planners?

Posted on November 13, 2011 by admin

I tend to want to believe them when they suggest military systems that are expensive but are sure to be obsolete quickly. I know a number of Dept of Defense civilian employees and they are smart and honest and pragmatic. Still, one must think that the cost of a super carrier could rebuild dikes on the Mississippi River in New Orleans plus a hospital and some neighborhood clinics plus a lot of other stuff.

Probably should but not sure that they fully deserve it..

Do flying Asian carp make water skiing particularly exciting in the Ohio River System?

Posted on November 11, 2011 by admin


I have seen on tv how the people in boats will wear helmets. They will talk of how they or people they know have suffered bad head injuries from these. I bet they could knock the daylights out of a person. These carp look to be big too. We should catch them and feed them to hungry people, seriously.

How did the river system contribute to the growth of the US and Canada?

Posted on October 20, 2011 by admin

I am studying for a 7th grade Social Studies test and this is one of the questions on it or a question related to it on the test. But how did it contribute to the growth of the US and Canada? haha:)
thankks!!:D

They were the major routes of transportation prior to trains and automobiles. Think about how far you could go today without the highway system. Before cars, they were the highway system. Major cities sprang up near river ports. The rivers were used to move people and goods from one place to another. Economically speaking, they provided a basis for industry (hydroelectricity, shipbuilding, dockworkers, transporting goods) and basic infrastructure (water, sewage, irrigation).

Java question- String replacement?

Posted on October 4, 2011 by admin

I’m learning basic Java in school in my computer science class, and I came across the method to update the value for a String object.

In my textbook, the object ‘river’ was initialized to be ‘Mississippi’.

The replace method example:
river.replace("issipp", "our")

When I tried it, it didn’t work even when I added a semicolon at the end of the line.
My code:
String river = "Mississippi";
System.out.println(river);
String bigRiver = river.toUpperCase();
System.out.println(bigRiver);
bigRiver.replace("I", "E");
System.out.println(bigRiver);

Any help is appreciated!

Firstly in the replace method. It takes chars. So, try changing it to ‘I’ and ‘E’

but that is not the main problem.

the method bigRiver.replace(..) returns the changed string and it does not automatically update the string

So try changing it to bigRiver = bigRiver.replace(….).

So the code shld be like this.

public class Replace
{
public static void main(String [] args)
{
String river = "Mississippi";
System.out.println(river);
String bigRiver = river.toUpperCase();
System.out.println(bigRiver);
bigRiver = bigRiver.replace("I", "E");
System.out.println(bigRiver);
}
}

What’s a good place to live in America if you have a low immune system….?

Posted on October 2, 2011 by admin

I know someone who has a lot of allergies, a very low immune system, and she can’t stay here: near the Mississippi river, because of the air. It makes her sick with histoplamosis. So she can’t live here. Are there any states that are good for your health that don’t have much allergies..? PLEASE HELP. <3

A desert climate with low humidity. Arizona and Nevada come to mind, as do parts of eastern California.

OUT of District SUPERINTENDENT HELP before its too late?

Posted on September 11, 2011 by admin

Me and my family have recently relocated to the area of Chesapeake Virginia after living in Virginia beach for several years. By doing so I was not allowed to attend the school of Tallwood High to complete my education. I’m currently an 11th Grader and I’m being forced to attend the school of Indian River High in the Chesapeake district as opposed to going to Tallwood High in the Virginia Beach district.Currently I have been withdrawn from the school system of Tallwood High nor am i currently enrolled in Indian River due to the fact my mother/me do not like the type of enviroment that school offers and its academics. Such as how they separate math classes into 2 different subjects for example in Tallwood I was suppose to take Algebra 2/Trig but the school separates the courses give me more work to do. Not to mention how I was classified as an 11th Grader not naturally going into the next grade and I was afraid that they would not recognize that in their curriculum, I would have loved to stay in Tallwood with my peers and graduate. I’ve been in Virginia beach all my life and its all i ever knew. Then I had always planned to attend the global and world languages academy over there. Of course Indian River offers some AP classes but I wanted to get into the Academy at Tallwood. Thinking that going back to Tallwood wasnt a possibility me and my mother tried going to Oscor smith high in the chesapeake are but they told us they could not allow me to go there because i am not zoned for that area nor could they find any loop holes for me to do that. So during that day me and my mom went through the guidance office at Tallwood and they said no so we went straight to the principal of the school. She said I had to be a resident somewhere in Virginia Beach but she told me that she didnt really understand the ruling for everything regarding Virginia Beach. So as of now I am registered in no school at all. So the Tallwood principal had told us that we would have to talk to the superintendent of the Virginia Beach Public Schools in order to see if there was any way to attend because she heard something once before as a principal at another school about Open Enrollment. But in order to see if that would be possible I would need to talk to the superintendent. But the problem is that it’s September 3 and school starts on the 6th and I’m not registered at any school as of now and i need to schedule an appointment with the superintendent in order to speak with him about the situation. I do not even know the hours he works or when i could call in because im trying to get back in that school and get a legitimate answer quick before its to late. School starts on tuesday and its now saturday. I do not want to register at indian river due to its ratings and the things they dont offer. Even a school official had told us that u do not want your son at this school at all. I personally want to enjoy my time in HS and finish with my peers/friends. Is their a possibility that i can stay within Tallwood if i talk to the superintenedent even though im out of district. I dont live that far and my mom is willing to drive me back and forth. Is their any acception or waiver he can make about this.Are than anymore loopholes cause i have tried almost everything in the book. If i signed up for classes in the academy at T wood would i be able to stay or something of that nature. Is their any possibility that he can approve me to keep going to T wood. But the problem is making an appointment with him. Because i do not know if they work on the weekends and i know they have labor day off probably and school starts on tuesday. I have no idea what i should do. I just need to get an answer from him then if he says no then i would go straight to Indian River against my will. Do I even have a legitimate reason and for example what is a good reason. WHAT IM ASKING IS WHAT WAY SHOULD I GO ABOUT THIS BEFORE OR WHEN SCHOOL STARTS AND ANY ADDITIONAL INFO ON THE MATTER, PS: I’ve gone through almost the whole system and im tired of fighting people to get the answer i want or asking for; hese say is final so that why im so focused on this and also whats the chances he would approve this due to my listed reasons. We had moved in February and continued to go to school in T wood despite our district change but they found out i didnt live there anymore so they withdrew me so now im lost i just dont know how to go about getting everything settled like when to make the appointment. because it cant take forever i need to start school as soon as possible. Are my reasons even good enough to keep attending T wood and if not what then plz i need some insight on this matter and steps etc.

uhh i suggest you shorten your question or you won’t get answers

can i still download the fed bank and river mall multiplayer maps for pandora tomorrow for xbox?

Posted on September 8, 2011 by admin

I’m trying to play system link games on my xbox 360 and the game is backwards compatible, but it seems since there’s no original xbox game support on LIVE anymore that there is no way to download these two maps. These were the best maps ever and there’s gotta be a way to get them again.
*Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow.. just fyi

There is still a way to get downloadable content from old X-Box games but it can’t be done over X-box LIVE. You must call X-Box LIVE Customer Support or Microsoft Customer support, or you can go to Www.Xbox.com/support for help on doing so.

Is there a interactive maps that show the names of all the rivers, streams and road systems.?

Posted on August 29, 2011 by admin

A map that is zoom capable that can show detail. either map, satelite or hybrid, or any other format that can provide this information Most maps i have been able to find do not give the names of the smaller rivers and streams or the secondary and thirdendary roads. I have spent many hours searching for such a site with no sucess. Regretably all i can offer at this time to the person that can solve this question is ….. never ending gratitude and….. enough positive energy to supercharge your dreams and desires. If more is required ….. let me know. Nagrom

Sorry Yahoo!

Try Google maps and Google Earth.
