Comment: I am conducting research to gather for my Public Speaking class and came
across a true urban legend under the crime icon. I choose the 911
Surrender and the article that I selected is about Ms. Nunnery and Vito
Knowles located in Bay County inadvertently dialing 911. One of the points
in my speech that is required to talk about is... Can you tell me the
story of how it came to be a legend?

Comment: Pupilbay is a company site that provides "tutoring" services. I
paid $210 for an "expert" to help me with an assignment that was due July
5th, I submitted and paid for this request on June 21st. I continued to
send reminders to ensure it was completed by the deadline and the 24-Hour
Chat always assured me it would be completed. It never was.

I contacted Pupilbay through the online chat (since they do not answer
emails or phone calls!) and they kept apologizing and proceeded to say it
would be completed, just to give it a few more hours. It was never done. I
then demanded a refund and they kept talking me in circles and promised to
send a "refund email" after the weekend (at this point I knew I was being
scammed, but I still tried). I never received the email and now the
company won't contact me via email, chat or phone... I am completely
ignored. I did not receive any services or refund from Pupilbay (homework
easy). I have been scammed out of $210.

DO NOT USE THEIR SERVICES!!!

Comment: Please provide annual historical US federal spending divided by
GDP for the two categories of

1. Department of Defense spending
2. Department of Health, Education, and Welfare

for the years of 1965 to the present 2012.

I have not found this to be all that easy to do, in view of the political
environment in which we live affecting the way data is presented. I feel
this would be useful to know for the voting public to understand exactly
how our Governments spending has been historically distributed. We all
know the timing of various war efforts and can factor that that into any
historical data. I hope you agree this data would be useful.

apparently there are no other sources of information, either on the net or in their school library. What has happened to them!! They certainly existed when I did reference as part of my library studies.

Actually, that was geography learned from pilot training. Those three are the three types of rotation available to a three dimensional craft such as an aircraft.

Comment: Does every model break down to mere axiomatic laws? If so, does
that necessarily imply the ability to stalemate any advancement of a model
back down to these value judgments?

Not all models break down, though I agree that many models are often the subject of vaslue judgements. I don't think those judgements are at all axiomatic as they tend to vary from critic to critic and will often change as the model becomes better known or moves into another field of work. for instance super models are viewed in a much different light than say a lingerie model.

Hope this helps.

Comment: My son is doing some reasearch on discoveries and that somehow
(links?) lead him to the text of a speech by President Obama where he said
that Islam was responsible for the world's "mastery of pens and printing,
compass and tools of navigation,understanding of disease and how it can be
healed".
The reasearch he has done so far indicates that it was the ancient Chinese
who were responsible for the discovery of many of these things and also
some Europeans.
Do you have the wherewithall to clear this up? He is getting frustrated
now and I can't blame him. I told him to just continue with his paper with
what he has-but now he is afraid his reasearch is totally wrong. Wikipedia
backs up his studying but he is not allowed to use Wikipedia.
