From observation, when something passes one house, it then has to be approved by the other. If the other makes any changes, then it goes back to the first house for approval and/or further deliberation/amending, which then have to be approved by the other house again. Any particularly controversial bill (or variant of it) can … Read more

That would depend on the interest rate, as well as your credit rating. Right now in Louisiana it's around 5.2 or 5.3% for a 30 year loan.

So the total you will owe is 190,000*1.053 = 200,070

Now divide the total by the number of months: 200,070/(30*12) = $555.75/month

That won't be … Read more

Most are simple arcade-style games OR if they have any detail at all, they sometimes charge a fee. Their graphics can be considerably worse so that the number of participants can be maximized.

Other than that, online games can be great. Try Kingdom of Loathing for a great stick-man RPG that will make … Read more

Semantics refers to specific meanings of a word, especially in academic circles. Semantic barriers, therefore, are the misunderstandings that occur by people trying to communicate an idea, but simultaneously having completely different meanings in mind for the words.

The numbers we use (1,2,3,4,5,6,etc), for the most part, were initially developed by arab scholars many centuries ago. As for the concept of numbers and counting, that has been around since we achieved sentience.

However long it takes you to ejaculate. It differs with each male due to the PC muscle strength. I forget what PC stands for, but it is the muscle that contracts around the urethra and vas deferens that prevents semen from going through. It contracts earlier if weaker, and thus some men can't last as … Read more

A single sperm is all that is needed, yet somehow nature felt that millions each and every time, JUST IN CASE, would be a better strategy. Personally, I think that was a very energy-wasteful choice on the part of biological evolution. But the point is that if you do not have any sperm capacity deficits … Read more

Because they are potentially disruptive to the learning process. If people are constantly getting calls or testing, their concentration diminishes, which leads to decreased performance. Besides, it's just rude to use one while in class. And outside of class, there is always the possibility that  you may forget to turn it off. If it goes off … Read more

Ideas rise and fall with time. Islam just happens to have a lot of momentum right now. So does christianity, but not nearly as much. I don't think there is such a thing as a true religion. I mean, to me, the flying spaghetti monster is about as realistic as zeus or loki. They are … Read more

You are naturally predisposed to being attracted, to varying degrees, to members of a certain sex. Bisexuals are almost never 50/50 … Read more
