They can, if they look down at any point, the other way would be up. They do however do not have a full movement of looking further up as you and I. It is easier for them to have the head move up and down

Banks depended on wholesale financing of their mortgages from eager investors instead of maintaining sufficient capital to back up the loans. Sadly enough, this is one of the areas of my job that keeps me employed by investigating scams.

Dogs follow as seen. The path you choose to exit the vehicle will alert their sense of direction and naturally allow then to figure out which way to escape when presented with the opportunity if the dog has not been properly trained or feels threatened.

If we are talking wool, having it cleaned by water will/could cause the item to shrink. Also applying water will give off a musty oder, sometimes smelling like a wet dog or dog urine. Once it has dried, the smell should go away, but can return just as easily. Using a mineral spirit should help with heavily soiled areas of the jacket.

First come first serve. No sharing, it doesn't work. This will only trouble you during your movie and require you to divert your attention to what you have come to pay for.

Why does that woodchuck keep chucking f*cking wood?

almost as good as "which came first".

Here is what it comes down to....

Some say it depends on three factors:


The woodchuck's desire to chuck said wood.

The woodchuck's need to chuck the aforementioned wood.

The woodchuck's ability to chuck the wood.
Others say:


He would chuck, he would, as much as he could, if a woodchuck could chuck wood.

If he could chuck wood, the woodchuck would chuck as much as he could!

A woodchuck would chuck as much wood as a woodchuck could chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood

In England, do the escalators pass each other on the opposite sides too? I don't want to accidentally get on the wrong escalator and face angry riders coming towards me.

No difference than ours, but they do tend to not follow the "stand to the right" slow crowd.

If you consider partly cloudy a quarter or less of the sky having clouds present, than partly sunny would be when a quarter or less of the sky has sun shining through the clouds

If money doesn't grow on trees then why do banks have branches?

one that cannot be answered by a direct answer but consider this as an alt by asking why a bank has more branches and some have few...To better serve the customer. With more branches in one single location, the customer is more likely to not bank with the comp.

I don't have either, but if you follow what people tell you, you'll never be happy. Look at the applications and see what works for you. The Curve outsells the iPhone, so that might help in your quest

Or
Are quarks and leptons actually fundamental, or are they made up of even more fundamental particles?

I'd have to say no on the edge of the universe. All answers to this would be basedon theory, not fact. It would be impossible reach if there isn't a definate boundry to contain any evidence.

The quarks and leptons go beyond my knowledge of atoms and such. Too many matter particles to follow and which one is a beauty, up and down blah blah blah, so I'm gonna have to say good question until I can research more on it. I'll keep it on the back burner

Very well done! And btw at the end of our universe is the edge of the multiverse. If you follow popular astrophysics. :p

but not proven, only in theory from what I see and watched on the Science Chan. (insert geek joke here for me). It's based on a model of inputs of what is known only

[staticorex]

Which is our fact until something better is given. :p But yeah you're right.

I was thinking that beyond the edge of our expanding universe would be whatever came before the big bang,pre time and space,could our minds even understand the concept of what we would be looking at?

Yeah. Think of an ocean in which several universes are floating. Beyond ours are the others. But I see what you're saying so... KCALB??? :p

Why do you think Ask Kcalb is such a popular thread?

We are all looking for answers. Its why the world of today is not the same as it was yesterday, or the day before. Answers become the knowledge of others once they are revealed. Its the same as saying one mans dream is another mans future. You can quote me on that

[SIPNGAS]

Thanks Pavel! lol
