www.myspace.com In the search for extraterrestrial intelligence (SETI), researchers differentiate between advanced and non-advanced civilizations. An advanced civilization is defined as one with the ability to conduct interstellar communication — to send electromagnetic signals through space. Using this definition, human civilization only became advanced within the past century, when local communication such as radio and television broadcasts began to be transmitted to interstellar space.

Answer by MenifeeManiac
Strict liability is usually reserved for products that have a high level of danger inherent in its use, such as dynamite.
You have a case of products liability negligence, based upon a design defect.
However, the company has issued warnings concerning the problems associated with the product’s use.
If there are no injuries or incidents prior to the notice, than anyone who uses the product with the notice given is using the product, as unmodified, may be acting negligently himself.

Q&A: What is missing from this Conservative bias “News”report?
Question by jl_jack09: What is missing from this Conservative bias “News”report?
By LARA JAKES JORDAN, Associated Press Writer
WASHINGTON – The earliest official report of a New Orleans levee breach came at 8:30 a.m., hours after Hurricane Katrina roared ashore. Word of the possible breach surfaced at the White House less than three hours later, at 11:13 a.m.
In all, 28 federal, state and local agencies reported levee failures on Aug. 29, according to a time line of e-mails, situation updates and weather reports that Senate Democrats say raise questions about whether the government moved quickly enough to rescue storm victims from massive flooding.
The documents were released in advance of a Senate hearing Friday at which Michael Brown, the former head of the Federal Emergency Management Agency was set to testify.
Brown is widely considered the public face of the government’s sluggish response to Katrina. But he signaled earlier this week that he was prepared to discuss his storm communications with Bu$h and other top White House officials — a possible signal that his testimony would assign blame elsewhere.
The White House has barred some top advisers and staffers from answering Senate investigators’ questions about the administration’s response, saying that certain discussions and documents must remain confidential. But Brown, who quit FEMA shortly after the storm and left the federal payroll Nov. 2, is no longer covered by that confidentiality protection.
White House spokesman Trent Duffy said the president and his top aides were fully aware of the massive flooding — and less concerned whether it was caused by levee breaches, over toppings or failed pumps, all three of which were being reported at the time.
“We knew there was flooding and that’s why the No. 1 effort in those early hours was on search and rescue, and saving life and limb,” Duffy said.
Shortly after the disaster, Bush said, “I don’t think anybody anticipated the breach of the levees.” He later said his comment was meant to suggest that there had been a false sense of relief that the levees had held when the storm passed, only to break a few hours later.
The Bush administration has said it knew definitively early Tuesday, Aug. 30, the day after the storm, that the levees had been breached, based on an Army Corps of Engineers assessment.
Democrats said the documents showed there was little excuse for the tardy federal response.
“The first communication came at 8:30 a.m.,” said Sen. Joe Lieberman, D-Conn., top Democrat on the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee. “So it is inexplicable to me how those responsible for the federal response could have woken up Tuesday morning unaware of this obviously catastrophic situation.”
The first internal White House communication about levee failures came at 11:13 a.m. on Aug. 29 in a “Katrina Spot Report” by the White House Homeland Security Council.
“Flooding is significant throughout the region and a levee in New Orleans has reportedly been breached sending 6-8 feet of water throughout the 9th ward area of the city,” the internal report said.
Hint, just listened to a town meeting on radio, there they said “the Government does not have the legal power to order a mandatory evacuation” I clearly read on “miserable failure” site that FEMA has the power to take all assets and enter your home. They also can arrest you on the spot, No charge, no lawyer. Where is the truth?
Another hint, there are 1,242 letters written to the Federals, some are about the poor condition of the levees. According to Michael Brown. All long before Katrina.

I am not going to play this game with you. The peole were told to get the he** out of New Orleans, buses lined up to pick them up, and people were refusing to go. The national news showed people dancing in the street of the French Quarter while the storm was making landfall. They were told days in advance that the storm would be devistating, and people wouldn’t listen. I live near Lafayette, and I had plans to make my family safe in case the storm turned our way.

Microsoft Word – Different Headers on Each Page (Voice Tutorial w/ Text Tutorial)
In this video, I show you how to insert different/separate headers and footers in Microsoft Word 2007. I decided to create this simple tutorial after having difficulties with having my school papers, which required sequential page numbers in the corner. TEXT TUTORIAL (Should work with most MS Word versions) (Also works for footers) 1. Make sure your document is completed, otherwise you might end up with spacing issues. 2. Edit the header on the first page to whatever you want. 3. Move the mouse cursor to end of the text on the first page and click. 3. Go to the Page Layout tab. 4. In the Page Setup group, select BREAKS. Under Section Breaks, select next page. (Some additional spaces may be created. You can just delete these.) 5. Open up the page 2 header. Notice that the Design tab automatically opens. Deselect LINK TO PREVIOUS. You can now edit the header to whatever you want, and it will not change the first one. 6. Repeat to insert more separate headers/footers. Leave suggestions on how I could improve my channel and videos here! www.usaychange.com

Is there anything we can to do to improve the quality control process for products made In China?
Question by Gigi: Is there anything we can to do to improve the quality control process for products made In China?
Fisher Price just recalled hundreds of thousands of toys to do lead paint. This comes shortly after a Thomas the Tank recall. Is there anything we can do to improve the quality control process for all the items that are made in China? Yes, we can say we are going to purchase only Made in the USA products, but anyone who has a child knows how much they love Dora and Diego, Sesame Street and Elmo, etc. These products are all manufactured in China and imported. As a consumer and as a parent I am extremely concerned about this. I would love to hear your feedback….

I am going to do my best to stop buying anything made in China until the stores that buy the crap get the point.
Its getting to be ridiculous. Every day we hear about a new thing from China that is potentially hazardous.

Who fault was it that Howard was so “high” that he caused Dallas their final timeout in GM 5, The Refs or Josh?
Question by KING (Doesn’t stand 4 Lebron!): Who fault was it that Howard was so “high” that he caused Dallas their final timeout in GM 5, The Refs or Josh?
In game 5 of the 2006 NBA Finals with 1.9 seconds left in regulation, Josh Howard was so high that he called his team’s final timeout while Wade was at the line. That caused them to have to dribble down court instead of advancing the ball for a better shot.
Proof:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zVAJRgLWMF0
Here is video of him motioning his hands while walking of the floor..
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O8R_wamsId4&feature=related
Who fault was that, The Refs or Josh Howard
It was not a “player coach conversation”. Video shows Howard WALKING OFF the floor while motioning timeout. You can’t blame the refs buddy!
Best answer:
Answer by Sheedtastic
It’s a player-coach conversation, how does the ref get in the way?
Whose fault was it that Battier driving to the basket and Wade ran into him (not a foul?) and bump him in the shoulder and ended up injuried himself. Is that mean Battier is stronger than Wade? Or Wade is just a pu$$y, or he is just that weak?

www.WINDENERGY7.COM – – – Wind Turbine Bird Strike? I have had home windmills at the ranch and these days I have 3 home windmills on my roof. They are the RoofMill product from WindEnergy7. I have never seen a bird death from a windmill. Our home windmill systems are now installed from Hawaii to Massachusetts, Europe and Canada. I have yet to have a single report from a customer, dealer, or installer about a bird death from my systems. I am sure I will at some point. But it’s a pretty solid fact that I rely on when people ask me about birds and wind generators. I am very comfortable in assuring them that it’s fine. See this video below, check it out. Those trees are packed with nests and I have baby birds everywhere. I have feeders and bird houses front and back of my house. You can hear in every one of my videos that I have birds everywhere. They don’t mess with the windmills, they fly right around them but steer clear. Birds are very cautious and agile animals. http www.cnet.com One wind energy expert was quoted.. “It’s easy to compare wind farms and wind turbines unfavorable to nothing.” But if you actually take all the major threats to birds, wind turbines pale in any comparison. Studies show that the big utility scale turbines kill one to two birds per year, per turbine, on average. Scientists like the ones of the Audobon Society have concluded that the issue of studying birds and home wind turbines is so insignificant that it is not worth studying. I have three home …
