| | A. | Search engine create their database by following links and indexing the content they find. They can not specifically search someone elses database unless there exists a link to the data. So the search engines ability to see the content is based on finding a link to the data. A quick rule of thumb is that when using a web browser, any page you can find by clicking links can be found by a search engine. Any page that can ONLY be found by entering information via a keyboard is unlikely to be indexed. | | | |
| Q. | What do you all think of the ATHEIST BUS CAMPAIGN in London? | Related Search:
Religion & Spirituality | | | *If someone posted a question about this already my apologies.
QUOTE FROM AP ARTICLE:
The sides of some of London's red buses will soon carry ads asserting there is "probably no God," as nonbelievers fight what they say is the preferential treatment given to religion in British society.
Organizers of a campaign to raise funds for the ads said Wednesday they received more than $113,000 in donations, almost seven times their target, in the hours since they launched the project on a charity Web site. Supporters include Oxford University biologist Richard Dawkins, who donated $9,000.
The money will be used to place posters on 30 buses carrying the slogan "There's probably no God. Now stop worrying and enjoy your life." The plan was to run the ads for four weeks starting in January, but so much money has been raised that the project may be expanded.

| Q. | Why did the Evening Standard not publish my comment on their story? | Related Search:
Current Events | | | In this story that is such a whitewash in favour of the McCanns
[Link]
They have a section below inviting viewers comments. I posted a comment last night, and it was entirely reasonable, in fact I even toned it down a lot just to make sure that it was 'acceptable' and yet it still never got published.
But reading through the 7 comments posted I see 6 all in favour of the McCanns and only 1 token criticism, and even that criticism was quite light.
I certainly hope the papers aren't 'screening' readers comments to match the tone of their writing.
Pathetic Evening Standard .............
EDIT - Markymark, I couldnt care less if they didnt publish mine necessarily, but a 6 to 1 ratio on the viewpoint of the comments is hardly fair!
Patoroan - You have grasped the concept that what I wrote here is NOT what I sent to the Evening Standard. You realise that, right?
| | A. | What if they got 500 answers? Do you expect to have only yours written?
You have a lot of good points on here, but are risking becoming as arrogant as the McCanns.
Y/A does not represent public opinion, it tends to be a place that peoplevent theri annoyance/anger with things. It may well be the csae that there is a 6:1 ratio in the repsonses they got. | | | |
| Q. | Breaking the bladder infection/UTI from holding myth? | Related Search:
Infectious Diseases | | | I often wondered about the truthfulness of the idea that "holding your pee will give you a bladder infection/UTI". As far as I know, urine is sterile, so this cannot cause a bladder infection but can worsen one if it is already there. Is there any truth in this?
Also, are there any other long term problems with holding (over-stretching was another I often heard of), and is there anything good that it can result in? I have heard that it may give a larger bladder and stronger sphincter, but again, I haven\'t seen it confirmed much, unlike the fact that not holding at all (or, more specifically going beforehand) may cause the bladder to weaken.
I would appreciate links to sites or articles that expand on this.
Having checked the fact of sterility of urine somewhat better it seems clear that urine is quite certainly sterile unless you are already infected, so your answer can\'t really be correct. All bacteria comes through the urinary tract, or the kidneys, in case that they are infected.
| | A. | urine is, in fact, sterile. it is filtered out of your blood, and your kidneys prevents microbes (along with red blood cells) from being filtered through. This is why presence of bacteria, blood, or sugar in urine is a clear indication of some kind of illness.
Holding urine in the bladder does not cause infections, hwoever, the urethra is NOT sterile, and stopping a flow part-way through or poor hygine can allow bacteria in the urethra to enter the bladder.
That said, no amount of holding will cause an infection on it's own. As long as you keep your urinary system flushed-out (by drinking lots of water, or even fruit juice containing anti-oxidants) then Urinary infections can only come from outside sources. | | | |
| Q. | If equality is here, why is human trafficking getting worse world-wide, with 52 countries involved? | Related Search:
Gender & Women's Studies | | | AP Article: US expands human trafficking watchlist: US Human Trafficking Watchlist Grows to Include 52 Countries": [Link]
According to the AP article: "The US State Department's annual "Trafficking in Persons Report," the first released since President Barack Obama took office, placed 52 countries and territories - mainly in Africa, Asia and the Middle East - on the watchlist. That number is a 30 percent jump from the 40 countries on the list in 2008.
Who's been added to the list? "Several nations that had been cited previously were removed from the list, but new countries cited for human trafficking problems included Angola, Bangladesh, Cambodia, Iraq, Lebanon, Nicaragua, Pakistan, the Philippines, Qatar, Senegal and the United Arab Emirates."
Why are nations put on the list? "Inclusion on the watchlist means those countries' governments are not fully complying with minimum standards set by U.S. law for cooperating in efforts to reduce the rise of human trafficking - a common denominator in the sex trade, coerced labor and recruitment of child soldiers."
What makes up the majority of human trafficking? According to the US State Dept: [Link]
"Sex trafficking comprises a significant portion of overall human trafficking. When a person is coerced, forced, or deceived into prostitution, or maintained in prostitution through coercion, that person is a victim of trafficking. All of those involved in recruiting, transporting, harboring, receiving, or obtaining the person for that purpose have committed a trafficking crime. Sex trafficking can also occur alongside debt bondage, as women and girls are forced to continue in prostitution through the use of unlawful “debt” purportedly incurred through their transportation or recruitment—or their crude “sale”—which exploiters insist they must pay off before they can be free."
Of the prosecutions made against human trafficking since 2003, 2008 had the least 5,212: [Link]
If equality is here, why is human trafficking getting worse world-wide, with 52 countries involved? Why the increase in sexism and human degradation?
| | A. | I'm going to agree with the first guy and say that equality is not here, despite what MRAs say.
I'm going to disagree that legalizing prostitution would eliminate or decrease human trafficking, especially sex trafficking. I think that we will have this problem until there is no profit in the market. It's cheap to buy a slave and work her to death. It's more expensive to keep a pro in business, to make sure she has health and safety taken care of, for instance.
I don't see a solution to this problem. I do note, however, that most of the countries on this watch list are notorious for their lack of women's rights. Indeed, I would say that most of them are notorious for their oppression of women. | | | |
| Q. | Ne1 else notice the area of london which had the congestion charge scraped-was probly the richest in London? | Related Search:
Politics | | | "There will no longer be any charge to drive in the western extension zone, comprising almost all of the borough of Kensington and Chelsea, plus Bayswater, Belgravia and Pimlico." - Oh yeah these places are among the nicest and richest places in London, I didnt see the scrapping it in East London, which is among the poorest.
[Link]
Just thinking perhaps Boris's rich and posh friends had a word with him.
"Ne1" is anyone. But I ran out of letters.
What I meant by East was, around Lambeth, Elephant and Castle, London Bridge and around Aldgate. Not rich areas at all.
| | A. | That's funny and sad at the same time. Boris's rich friends will certainly be pleased and we wonder why the rich are getting richer whilst the poor are getting poorer. | | | |
