What percentage of commercial airline pilots could have had the same successful landing as the crew of the Boeing 777 United Airlines flight 328? | The vast majority. Close to 100%.

Can an employer continue to ask for help once an employee has resigned? | Random strangers can approach someone to ask for all kinds of help.

If a job is still being advertised 4 months after you were rejected, and you think you are qualified for it, would you reapply? | I applied for a casual labouring job through a labour hire company every day for close to a year. This company re-posted the add every single day, so the advert had a different job ID number every day. Most days I didn't hear anything, occasionally I received the unsuccessful email until I got called in for an interview. I started my first placement the following Monday. I worked at the same place for a month before working a week elsewhere, then back to the first place. I finished my required 3 months with the agency at the same place, then they employed me full-time. Been there 3 years now.
When I look for a job, I apply for anything I can do. It doesn't matter if it is a dead end job or eliminates a social life. It is easier to get a job if you have one already, bills need to be paid, the bank isn't going to wait for you to get a job if you haven't paid your bills. I will apply for anything that is advertised, some adverts are 3–6 months old, I still apply for those.
Edit. As of July 2021, I'm still employed with the company

There are a variety of methods one can use to reduce face fat, including diet and exercise, facial exercises, and even some lifestyle changes.
1. Diet and Exercise: Eating a balanced diet and engaging in regular cardiovascular exercise are essential components of reducing face fat.

These exercises include things like puckering your lips and making exaggerated facial expressions, or simply massaging the facial muscles in a circular motion. Doing these facial exercises for five to ten minutes each day will help to tone and tighten the facial muscles, which can reduce the appearance of fat in the face.
3. Lifestyle Changes: Making a few small lifestyle changes can also help to reduce face fat. Drinking plenty of water and avoiding sugary beverages and processed foods will help to reduce overall body fat, including fat in the face. Additionally, reducing stress and getting adequate rest will also help to reduce facial fat.

Using a good facial cleanser and moisturizer will help to keep the skin healthy and hydrated, which can help to reduce the appearance of facial fat. Additionally, using a good sunscreen can help to protect the skin from sun damage, which can also help to reduce facial fat.
By making a few changes to your diet and lifestyle, and incorporating some facial exercises and skin care, you can reduce face fat and achieve a more sculpted and toned facial appearance. With a little bit of dedication and effort, you can reduce face fat and be proud of the results.

Is it unethical to tell an Alzheimer’s patient that they’re vacationing in an awesome place, rather than telling them they’re in a care facility—assuming they would take your word for it, feel happy, and not discover the lie? | If I ever have Alzheimer’s and think I am on a cruise or in a hotel let me continue thinking that. I want to think that I have the freedom to go on a cruise or other things that I once enjoyed. But don't say that I am on a cruise if I didn't say it first.

Who would win in a matchup, 1988 Mike Tyson or 2020 Tyson Fury? | Iron Mike vs The Gypsy King: Who is the better Tyson?
In 1988, Mike Tyson was the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world. He was undefeated and considered by many to be the greatest heavyweight of all time. In 2020, Tyson Fury is the reigning WBC and lineal heavyweight champion. He is also undefeated and is considered by many to be one of the best heavyweights of all time. So, who would win the fight between these two legendary Tysons?
Both men are immensely talented and have proven themselves to be true champions. There's no question that Mike Tyson was one of the most ferocious and intimidating boxers in history. His fists were like sledgehammers, and he had the power to send any opponent crashing to the mat. He won 26 of his first 28 fights by TKO, 16 of which came in the first round.
Tyson Fury is probably the better boxer of the two, but Mike Tyson was always considered to have the better knockout power. In a fight between these two, anything could happen. However, the size discrepancy between these two heavyweights simply cannot be ignored.
Tyson was never the biggest boxer in the ring. With a height of 5’10” (178 cm), a weight of 100 kg (220 lbs), and a reach of 180 cm (71 inches) throughout his career, he was much smaller than his opponents. The average heavyweight boxer is 6’3” (190.5 cm), weighing 108 kgs (238 lbs), with a reach of 194 cm.
Given Mike Tyson’s extraordinary combination of speed and power, however, this size differential rarely mattered. To close the gap between significantly taller opponents, Iron Mike perfected the Gazelle Punch or leaping hook/jab. (The boxer bends slightly to build explosiveness in his legs before quickly lifting up from a lowered position to throw the punch while moving through the air towards the target — just like a gazelle leaps).
But, Tyson Fury is a different kind of large. At 6'9", he is one of the tallest heavyweights in boxing history, and his 84" reach is longer than any other heavyweight in the division. This means that he can fight at a distance and still land his punches, while his opponents struggle to get close enough to land their own shots. Tyson Fury also has unbelievable hand speed for a heavyweight. He is able to throw punches in quick succession and catch his opponents off guard.
In addition, The Gypsy King has shown great resilience in his career so far. In his fight against Wladimir Klitschko, he was knocked down twice in the first round. Fury showed his mental strength by not only getting up but going on to win the fight. He did this by adjusting his game plan during the fight, changing tactics, and fighting on the front foot, which ultimately led to him winning the contest.
Personally, as much as I love Iron Mike, I think Tyson Fury would win. You can never count out a puncher of Mike Tyson’s caliber, but the 270-pound Gypsy King would likely push Iron Mike and his peek-a-boo style around the ring. Tyson Fury is the better boxer, and he's shown time and time again that he has the mental toughness to overcome any challenge.

Can a digital book be bought and shared with the family via a Kindle, or would you have to buy a copy of the digital book for each family member? | There are a couple of ways to share Kindle books.
One is simply to have multiple Kindles linked to the same account, which is what I do; all Kindles have access to all books. I understand the child kindles also link to your account but you specify what they’re allowed to access.
Some (but not all) Kindle books also have sharing enabled, which allows you to lend someone else the book.

What are some little known benefits to leasing a vehicle rather than purchasing? | Leasing a car can be a good idea for some people, but it's not right for everyone. Leasing a car means that you're essentially renting it for a set period of time, usually 2-3 years. At the end of the lease, you have the option to return the car or buy it outright. Here are some pros and cons of leasing a car to help you decide if it's the right choice for you.
Pros:
1. Lower monthly payments
One of the biggest advantages of leasing a car is that your monthly payments are typically lower than they would be if you were buying the car outright. This is because you're only paying for the depreciation of the car during the time that you're leasing it, not the entire cost of the car.
2. Lower upfront costs
Leasing a car also typically requires lower upfront costs than buying a car outright. This is because you usually don't have to make a down payment, and the fees and taxes associated with leasing are usually lower than they would be if you were buying the car outright.
3. No long-term commitment
Leasing a car is a great option if you're not sure whether you want to commit to a particular car or if you like the idea of being able to switch cars every few years. This gives you more flexibility than buying a car outright, which can be a long-term commitment.
4. Maintenance and repair costs are covered
Most leases come with a maintenance and repair package, which means that you won't have to worry about paying for any repairs or maintenance that the car needs during the time that you're leasing it.
Cons:
1. Mileage restrictions
One of the biggest disadvantages of leasing a car is that there are usually mileage restrictions. If you go over the mileage limit, you'll have to pay extra fees. This can be a problem if you have a long commute or if you like to take road trips.
2. No equity
When you lease a car, you're essentially renting it, which means that you won't build any equity in the car. This means that you won't have anything to show for the money that you've paid into the car at the end of the lease.
3. You don't own the car
When you lease a car, you don't own it, which means that you won't have any control over how the car is maintained or how it's used. You'll also have to return the car at the end of the lease, which can be a hassle.
4. Extra fees
Leasing a car typically involves a number of extra fees, such as acquisition fees, disposition fees, and security deposits. These fees can add up quickly and make leasing a car more expensive than you might expect.
In conclusion, leasing a car can be a good idea for some people, but it's not right for everyone. If you're someone who likes to switch cars every few years or if you're looking for a lower monthly payment, then leasing a car might be a good option for you. However, if you're someone who likes to own your car or if you have a long commute or like to take road trips, then leasing a car might not be the best choice for you.

What is the weirdest object you've ever found? | A Letter Opener:
It was a normal day. I got home from school, and nothing was out of the ordinary. Then, my mother gave me an object which looks like the one above, and asked me what it was. She said that my father brought it the day earlier, having been given one of these at work. I had absolutely no idea what the fuck that thing was. I considered taking a picture of it and posting it on Quora to ask people what it was, but I decided to do that if we couldn’t figure it out by ourselves. We tried and tried, but couldn’t figure out what that thing was meant to do.
Then, we noticed the blade embedded within the plastic. Clearly, it was meant to cut SOMETHING. However, nothing on hand could fit between the plastic bits. I figured it must have been a fancy pencil sharpener, but quickly discarded the idea, seeing its stupidity. We then figured that maybe it was just a thing, a piece of promotional material, that served no function whatsoever. It did have the logo of the company for which my father worked printed on it, after all. At the time, that explanation seemed to make the most sense.
Anyways, I decided to take the object with me to my room. On my way there, I noticed some writing on the other side, barely stamped into the plastic.
Patent 5561905
I quickly fired up my computer and typed that into Google’s search bar.
Lo and behold, the very first result that came up said “Letter opener”.
And on that day, I found out that those things exist.

How has being raised by extremely strict parents affected you as an adult? | Let’s see… I wasn’t allowed to listen to any non-Christian music, so I snuck out to listen to it and could be found with someone else’s discman on the bleachers. I still love my 90s punk rock. I wasn’t allowed to choose my own faith or when I would declare it. I don’t go to any church anymore. I wasn’t supposed to take art or writing seriously. I now spend my free time on both. I wasn’t allowed to take a marriage and family course in high school. I took several marriage and family courses in the social sciences during college.
Pretty much any rule completely backfired, though just about all of the rules in the house had something to do with religion (or going into a profession). I’m not the sort of person who’d naturally enjoy a keg party or wear a short skirt or play hooky or other stuff teenagers like doing that parents don’t like teenagers doing. I am the sort of person who’d chop and dye my hair to prove a point about stereotypes or protest low academic standards when blocked form advanced course opportunities.

What are N95 masks normally used for? | [LINKED_TEXT: N95 masks] [URL: https://accumed.com/catalogsearch/result/?q=n-95] can filter pollutants easily and are highly efficient. These masks can filter 95 percent of pollutants. But, according to doctors, those with respiratory problems should not use these masks. They could suffer serious consequences. N95 masks can make breathing difficult. N95 masks shouldn't be worn by children. These masks will not protect you against the coronavirus. In N95 masks, it can be difficult for you to breathe.
I strongly recommend surgical masks. These masks are strong enough to protect against 100% coronavirus. They can prevent the transmission of the virus. These masks are comfortable and do not cause respiratory problems. Coronavirus can be prevented by fitting surgical masks to the face.
Although N95 may be able to protect you from the coronavirus, doctors aren’t sure as they can cause serious breathing

What is the biggest problem with the modern education system? | Lack of funding: Many public schools in the US suffer from inadequate funding, leading to overcrowded classrooms, outdated textbooks, and inadequate resources.
2. Inequality: The current education system in the US is not equitable due to the disparities in funding between wealthy and poor districts. This leads to unequal educational opportunities for students from different socioeconomic backgrounds.
3. Standardized testing: Many students in the US are subjected to high-stakes standardized tests which put too much emphasis on memorization and test-taking skills rather than critical thinking and creativity.
4. Lack of focus on real-world skills: Many students in the US are not adequately prepared for college and the workplace due to a lack of emphasis on real-world skills such as problem-solving, collaboration, and communication.
5. Unengaging curriculum: Many students in the US are not engaged in the curriculum due to its lack of relevance to their lives and interests.

What is your review of 'Dil Bechara' (2020 movie)? | I had no wish to watch this movie because I didn't like the book much, so investing time in adaptation seemed pointless. But when you have crazy friends(Aadarsh, you are included) you learn to do pointless, aimless things. Last night I watched my first Sushant Singh movie(not his fan/hater) . Thanks to my friend(s) for suggesting it. Here's my review with a pinch of blatant honesty and lens of life philosophy:
1)The first thing which I don not like about the movie is the last ten minutes of the movie. Climax scenes could have been more engaging if those scenes were not shown in bits n pieces.
Another reason is_ love, romance,life death that’s the whole essence of this adaptation. Love transforms a person, and loss of a loved one shakes, shatters, changes you into a different being. As a viewer, I wanted more action and words from Kizzie than watching the montage of his memories. I wanted her to pull that boy's cigarette away, because it was his thing. I wanted a scene where she visits his grave even after months. I missed Hazel Grace’s reaction to several Facebook comments, and those family and friends who claimed how well they know him.
2)The theatre scene, it was pathetically shot. The actors pulled their role decently. Why such shody film making? A person is writhing in pain, in a packed movie theatre and nobody noticed, I guess Rajnikanth mania is for real.
A meaningful scene,but badly shot. What a loss!! It is my favourite scene because it projects a cunning philosophy of life. In life we all want to become independent, just with the hope that someday, somebody will find us dependable and lean on us. Manny's took the step to heal himself, to become a self-dependant man by dragging himself to his favorite spot, but life ain't so easy. Our aim to own independence makes us interdependent in eachother.
3)The cigarette metaphor, why John Green? In my opinion, if you will keep a gun close to you, someday that will take your life. To play with death is not fun. Some people do take metaphors literally.
4)The lack of depth in Kizzie's mother. Mother of a cancer patient is no ordinary woman, but the movie portryed her like a typical Bollywood version of Indian mother who is always worried about her daughter's relationship, their culture, food and blahh. Why did they not show all the preparation done by her mother, their families and the team of doctors for the trip. A flight or an airport scene could have brought continuity and connectivity with the movie.
In the book, Hazel's mother has so much depth she studies healthy recipes for her, enrolled in a course to counsel cancer patients. I guess they distorted this character too badly to contextulaize it for Indian viewers.
5)Lastly, I liked that idiosyncratic man(Saif). Why was his scene so short? He could have become the backbone of the movie way better than the raja_rani narration.
6) “The song” was lost in bunch of unnecessary background music. I don't like music of this film. Music should be in harmony with the script, and scenes. If they had taken all the effort to replace the book with the song, why was Kizzie not given a chance to speak about reasons for loving it. That would have made her more sensible than a stupid girl who let's a man in her room.
Anything deep is abstract and ambiguous, since the movie makers wanted the story to be more preachy that they made it shallow with shoddy work.
I thanks this movie for making me fall in love with the book I did not like at first read. Now, I will read it again. After watching the movie, I have realised Paris is better than what they projected, so badly want to visit Amsterdam and Paris.
P.S on a lighter note, I so love Kizzie's dressing style. I want to have her dress collection.

If you quit Quora, do you think anyone would miss you? | I started answering questions in Quora in 2017, after my boyfriend of more than two years passed away. It was sort of a therapy for me to compose sentences in English.
I limited my time in Facebook and Instagram during those days to help me ease the pain of losing him, because seeing pictures of happy people just made me more lonely.
I gained a 70+ year-old friend here from UK, but we are not communicating anymore and I haven’t seen him answered any question this past few months.
Going back to the question, with less than 30 followers, I don’t think somebody will miss me if I abandoned Quora.
Even in real life, I don’t think anyone is missing me.

My son gets a slip home every day from his teacher that needs to be signed because he gets in trouble. Should I sit in on his class for a day? | I read some other comments, and, yes, sometimes it is the teacher’s behaviors, and you will need to pull your son out of that situation. Think of this as the last resort though. You have options.
I have a fantastic nephew who is now a firefighter/paramedic. He had a similar situation as your son. Two teachers decided things about him early on. He couldn’t move or breathe without upsetting these gals. My sister repeatedly met with these teachers. Then she went to see the principal who sided with the teachers. The last straw though came the day one teacher hurt my nephew during class. Dug her fingers into his skin, leaving marks. My sister took pictures and showed the superintendent. Those pictures were going to police if they didn’t move my nephew to another class. Permission granted — he had the best year after that.
But don’t go to “crisis mode” just yet. Right now, you need some conflict resolution advice. The reality is today’s school environment is tomorrow’s workplace. Stay positive and move from a neutral position. I mean, yes, this teacher might be the worst, but sometimes that’s not the reality. Your son will have to deal with all sorts of crazy behavior from bosses and coworkers in the future. I had a teacher who liked to call those “teachable moments.” But these are definitely life skills you want your son to gain out of this experience.
That said, it’s true we have some teachers who love their jobs as educators, and others who are punching the clock. Sometimes kids are acting out in class because of the teacher’s style of teaching. Maybe it’s because they wanted a different teacher. Sometimes something else may happen in that classroom beyond the subject and/or the teacher. You want to work as a team with your son and the teacher to resolve any issues impeding his education. He needs to successfully make it through and pass the class.
I would first arrange a meeting to discuss these disciplinary slips. Ask your son about his perspective so you can go in with his side. Then, ask for the teacher’s perspective while staying neutral. Tell the teacher that you will need to observe your son’s behavior. Really, how can you help the teacher unless you know what’s happening, right? (Some have suggested popping in without notice. The problem though is not all schools allow for impromptu visits because of security risks. Call the office and see what the protocol is for coming in to sit in on classes.) Sit at the back of the classroom and notice the overall environment and the dynamics between the teacher and you...

Why are there so many pink/red colored weather balloons in Alaska and Canada? | The pink/red weather balloons in Alaska and Canada are part of a program used to monitor atmospheric conditions. Weather balloons are typically made of latex or neoprene and are filled with either hydrogen or helium gas. They are launched twice a day, at 00:00 and 12:00 UTC, from over 900 locations worldwide and are used to gather data on temperature, pressure, humidity, and wind speed.
The red/pink color is used to increase visibility and help track the balloons as they rise through the atmosphere. The balloons are equipped with sensors and radiosondes, which transmit data back to the ground in real-time, providing important information for weather forecasts and climate research.
It is common to see clusters of pink/red weather balloons in Alaska and Canada as they are regions with remote and challenging climates, and collecting accurate weather data in these areas is essential for weather forecasting and public safety.

Can somebody help me with the best endocrinologist in Mumbai for pcos? | The best endocrinologist I have come across so far in Mumbai is Dr. Nisha Kaimal who works at Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani Hospital, Andheri West.
Initially, we consulted few other endocrinologists based on google reviews and other review platforms which are mostly fake and paid reviews. We were not able to get a good treatment plan and conditions were not improving. Then, one of our friends in Pharma marketing suggested Dr. Nisha Kaimal.
We could feel the difference in the first consultation itself. She was very thorough and we could see that she has vast experience both in UK and India. Our issues started improving gradually and we even suggested some our relatives with diabetes also to consult her. They also said they were very happy with the Dr.
Apart from experience, expertise and Knowledge, she is also very humble, empathetic and made us feel cared for.
I hope this info is useful for you. Good luck !

What is a good ham radio to get for a beginner? I would like a long range one, and I don't want it to be too expensive. | You will need to use high frequency to make long range contacts. That is, if you mean longer than line of sight, like to other countries. I have a Yaesu FT-747GX that I bought for about 100.00. it is very simple to use. It is almost as easy as a cb radio. If you want to talk locally you could buy a hand held radio like the Baefeng uv5r for about 25.00 and talk through a repeater. I suggest you go to a local ham radio club meeting and meet some local people who could help you. For the high frequency radio you could make a wire antenna ,like a dipole. I have been using a premade g5rv junior wire dipole antenna I bought for about 45 dollars. Your local library likely has ham radio books you can check out to help. It is possible to build radios too. Have fun! W5van

What is an online auction? | Online auctions are sales transactions that result from a competitive bidding process conducted over the Internet. Whether the sales take place between individuals, between consumers and merchants, or between businesses, online auctions have enjoyed rapid growth with the spread of Internet access.
The consumer[LINKED_TEXT: online auction website] [URL: https://appkodes.com/auction-website-using-tophatter-clone/?utm_medium=quora&utm_source=auction-blog&utm_campaign=u5] process has been described as being similar to a garage sale, with commonly offered items including collectables, antiques, toys, clothing, art, cars, tickets, electronics, and even real estate.
Online auctions appeal to individuals who enjoy the competitive bidding process and like to feel as if they are getting a bargain. Most Web sites that host auctions allow buyers and sellers to negotiate payment methods and shipping details. Auction-related costs are usually limited to a small percentage of the final sales price.
Auctions have been a means of the economic transaction for centuries. By moving onto the Internet, auctions have become accessible to a much larger number of participants, increasing the size of the marketplace dramatically. Although transactions between individuals are an important driver of the online auction market, the business-to-consumer and business-to-business portions of the market are growing rapidly.
Online auctions have changed the world for retailers and entrepreneurs by giving them a national and international venue from which to sell. But shipping and transportation costs are not an insignificant barrier to the sale of many large items. A move back to geographically centred trading, to the local marketplace, is being accomplished online through the use of online classified ad sites.

What are some little known benefits to leasing a vehicle rather than purchasing? | There are several good reasons to lease a car, rather than buy one. If you ride in a leased car, you won't have to worry about getting dented and scratched. Also, you won't have to worry about pouring money into the car to fix it the way you would if you bought it. Leasing gives you better automobile coverage, because you don't have to worry about things like tire replacement, brakes, and other mechanical failures. And if you want to drive a different kind of car in a few months, then you can simply get out of your lease and sign a new one. Simply put, leasing is the smarter financial decision.

What are some arguments I can make to fight a fire hydrant ticket? The hydrant was blue and I thought it was a paranoid homeowner who installed a private fire hydrant for his own use. There were no red lines or signs saying no parking. | No one pays to have a private fire hydrant installed. That doesn’t even make sense. If you want fire protection, you just have sprinklers installed in your house.

Is it possible to avoid the yo-yo effect & maintain your weight or will you gradually gain it back even if slowly increasing calories & exercising? | Yo yo dieting is definitely a menace when it comes to losing weight. There's almost no pros of doing that kind of dieting and it is almost sure to ruin your health in every way you can think of.
This is the reason why many knowledgeable and experienced fitness professionals always advocate for losing weight as slow as possible.
The simple reason for it is that losing weight makes your metabolism adapt to the lower calorie environment. The larger the caloric deficit , more is the adaptation. So by the time even if you reach your goal weight , you'd have a higher chance of gaining those lost weight back because your metabolism is still not accustomed to handling the sudden influx of higher calories that it used to handle during the deficit period.
A slow rate of weight loss , prevents or minimizes the rate of metabolic adaptation and when the time has come to switch back to your maintainence calories , you're metabolism would comparatively be in a better state to handle the higher influx of calories compared to the weight loss period. As a result , you'd either maintain weight or see some weight gain which would not be significant enough to go on a long term diet again.
The slower you go , the better you're going to maintain your metabolism which in turn would do a good job of preventing or mitigating any weight gain during the post diet period.

Is the NDA training the toughest? | The National Defence Academy (NDA) training is known to be rigorous and demanding. It is designed to prepare cadets for the challenges they may face in their careers as officers in the Indian Armed Forces. While it is considered challenging, whether it is the "toughest" training or not can vary based on individual perspectives and experiences.
The NDA training involves a combination of academic education, physical fitness training, military drills, and character development. Cadets undergo a comprehensive and intense training program that includes physical endurance tests, obstacle courses, weapons training, military tactics, leadership development, and more.
The training at NDA is known for its strict discipline, demanding physical fitness standards, and the need to excel in various aspects of military training. It requires a high level of commitment, resilience, and determination to successfully complete the training.
It is worth noting that different training programs and institutions may have their own unique challenges and demands. The perception of what is "toughest" can vary depending on personal experiences and individual capabilities. Each training program, whether it is at NDA or any other military institution, is designed to push candidates to their limits and prepare them for the responsibilities of serving in the armed forces.

How has being raised by extremely strict parents affected you as an adult? | Being raised by extremely strict parents has had a lasting effect on my life as an adult. It has made it difficult for me to trust people and to make decisions on my own. I have often found myself second-guessing my decisions and feeling insecure in my choices. I have also had a hard time being assertive and standing up for myself, and have had difficulty making friends and forming relationships. I have also found it difficult to be spontaneous and to take risks, as I was taught that these things are not acceptable. Overall, being raised by strict parents has made it difficult for me to be independent and to trust my own judgement.

Why are HDMI cords so expensive? | They aren't! Do NOT buy one at a big blue/yellow store, EVER. Please. A six foot HDMI cord should set you back ten bucks, not forty! Avoid office supply stores and wallyworld for HDMI also. I buy mine online from a site called monoprice. Always great quality, always great pricing, discounted for bulk orders. Don't fall for the “gold plated contacts" either, or that name that's the same as the energy drink. It's all BS.

My family wants to put my cat down. She started being sick a couple of weeks ago by throwing up and peeing everywhere. I don’t want to put her down. Will the veterinarian let me put my cat down even if she is not sick? | I'll answer your question and then give you an alternative. An ethical vet will probably not, no. They'll tell you to go to the pound. It's not a medical concern, it's about your family just not wanting to deal with the cat. A vet that only cares about money will. It's about ethics. Obviously something is wrong with her, and it would take someone who cares about her to resolve those issues via veterinary care. I'm assuming you're too young to have the money to do so.
Here's your alternative. Your family doesn't care. You do. Surrender her to a no kill rescue. Not a shelter or pound. A no kill. They'll help her get better and rehome her. Your family doesn't need to care and you can sleep at night. If need be, drop her anonymously at said no kill rescue. Put her in a carrier, and vanish. I've worked in places where that happens, and sometimes I understand why people do it. Desperation. If that is what you need to do, do it.
I'd also personally tell your family that if they do this, you will move out as soon as you turn 18 and cut off contact. That you will hate them. If my parents had done that to me, I'd be done. No one that heartless and irresponsible is worth it to me. I was taught that animals are our companions and friends, and also our responsibilities. Not different than children. If they do it anyways, you'll know they don't care about you either. May seem extreme, but I don't need people like that in my life.

What would happen if a meteorite traveling at Mach 32 were to strike my backyard? | a nice big pool/hole and a lot of area into trouble. hope your township was empty and you were not in a city. speed means more power at impact with Earth and also want the meteorite was made from, was it small by the time it got to your backyard/target 0,0,0,0 or was it still big. the answer would give us why we got a problem or a huge death zone. at that speed locals would get the result before any warning so at speed of sound and maybe even faster and movement the death zone would expand outward and the Earth would have a new nature event to visit later hopeful. so enjoy your house and do the upgrades and raise your family and meet your neighbours. at that speed it might be partly a airbust event which would cover a large area but also reach down to the ground. good luck on the day. it be a day to remember if you away from home. keep your pets safe also.

What's your single best piece of advice for anyone? | As an AI language model, I don't receive advice in the traditional sense, but I have been programmed with a vast amount of knowledge and wisdom that can be distilled into useful advice. One such piece of advice that I believe is particularly valuable is:
"Focus on what you can control, and don't worry about what you can't."
This advice emphasizes the importance of directing your energy and attention towards the things that are within your power to change, and not getting bogged down by circumstances or factors outside of your control. By accepting the things you can't change and focusing on the things you can, you can develop a sense of agency and empowerment, and make the most of the resources available to you.

Would you do the same thing to Chris Rock if you were Will Smith? | I can’t put myself in Mr. Smith’s mindset at the time of this incident. He sure made a huge splash, didn’t he? If you’re asking whether or not I think Will was wrong, I will say it doesn’t matter what I think; what matters is what Will Smith thought.
For every person at the center of a situation, there’s someone at the bottom, meaning, Will walked up on stage to smack Chris Rock, but Chris Rock had been asked before the awards not to single out Jada, and make reference to her hair. Mr. Rock had also been asked other times not to include Mr. Smith’s family members in his routine.
Jada Smith was seemingly mortified by the attention Mr. Rock sent her way; attention that was demeaning and ridiculing. Will caught the look on her face, as did the cameras, and that’s what set him off.
You know, people are fickle. Pretty soon the very people putting him down will be praising him for defending his wife’s honor.

Do all entrepreneurs need an outside investor? | No. But they have to raise money somehow. Ongoing operations is the best way, friends and family is possible, and outside investors is the least pleasant.
|
After playing a full-sized bass guitar all night, does the low weight of a ukulele bass seem appealing? | The uke basses are pretty cool, but they require a different touch to play. I like my Warwick and SSD basses as they are about 2 lbs lighter than my Fenders. I have a 3” wide leather strap that helps spread the load out. I honestly don’t have shoulder problems due to the bass.
But there are even more ergonomic straps, they are more like a harness that spreads the weight of the bass over both shoulders and your hips. Damien Erskine, a great bass player, uses one. Look for pics of him playing live and you can see what I am talking about.
I simply would not gig any bass that is over 10 lbs, and prefer the 8 to 9 lb range where my Spector and SSD fall.

As an IITian, what is the best piece of advice you would give to a JEE aspirant? | Advice 1 : Do not follow strategy of JEE toppers. What may be easy for them generally won't be for you
Advice 2 : Do not follow multiple books, rather solve one book multiple times. Don't switch to other book when you haven't solved your coaching modules at least two times
Advice 3 : While solving modules, mark questions which you weren't able to do in first attempt and revise then after you finish the syllabus a few months before JEE
Advice 4 : Do not fall for a particular subject. Remember all the subjects have equal weightage in JEE. Rather try to make at least two subjects your strong point (Usually Chemistry and Physics) but don't make third the weaker one!
(Pic : Aerial view of IIT Kanpur)
Advice 5 : Do not fall for someone during JEE. It's going to ruin both you and your career
Advice 6 : Give at least one mock each of JEE Main and JEE Advanced each week on weekend or whenever you are free. After attempting analyse your mistakes, make a separate notebook and write why you weren't able to solve it (conceptual/silly mistake).
This I believe is the most important part of one's preparation!
Advice 7 : Do not follow other’s strategies and time-table! You both are not the same. Try to make your own strategies like what to study when, which subject to attempt first in paper etc.
Advice 8 : Try to sit three hours continuously on your study table without distractions as to imitate the real exam where you'll have to sit for the same duration.
Advice 8 : DO NOT FUCKING WATCH MOTIVATIONAL VIDEOS
I've deliberately written that in bold words cuz I seriously mean that! Motivational videos gradually become an addiction and you long for it everytime you need to study.
(Pic : IITK Hall-12&13)
Alternative : Make short goals everyday like today I'll do 50 Q of indefinite integration and try your best to complete that. The satisfaction when you complete these short goals can't be achieved by some third person pushing you. Be you own motivator!
Advice 9 : Do not value IIT as the sole goal of your life. Indeed IITs are the best the country has to provide but it isn't above your life.
Advice 10 : Socialise when you can ,obviously not getting distracted though. If you have a cousin's wedding do attend it! Don't skip it over your ego cuz you're a serious aspirant :-P !
I realised this after coming to IIT ! Breaks like these are necessary sometimes
Advice 10 : Try to sleep early and get early. Studying in the morning is always beneficial
Advice 11 : Do not skip inorganic chemistry and make it your enemy. Mark my words, inorganic is the most scoring section in JEE and you can solve the questions within seconds, giving you marks and of course confidence to attempt other questions!
Advice 12 : NCERT is the god for Inorganic and sometimes organic too for mains. Do it religiously.
If You can’t understand some topic even after many tries ,and you don’t have enough time to prepare for that then ONLY leave that topic , not whole chapter
Advice 13 : Do not hesitate to ask doubts from your teachers. You hesitate now, you're gonna loose a couple of ranks in the exam.
Advice 14 : Take extreme care of your health. Remeber health is always the first priority and the pandemic has taught us this only! Go out in the mornings and evenings for walks, do meditation!
Advice 15 : Refrain from social media and smart phones! Pretty obvious I guess!
Advice 16 : Refrain to talk from people who have negative vibes, who always cry over something or the other! Try to be as positive as possible during the preparation phase.
Advice 17 : For organic chemistry, solve only your coaching modules! They are more than sufficient. When I was an aspirant I bought 4 different books for organic and realized something was missing in one and present in other, pushing me in a dilemma as to where to study from. Later, my resonance modules proved to be best! Try to treat organic mechanisms as laws of physics!
Advice 18 : When doing modules, try to do questions in a limited time frame! Like 10 Main level questions in 20 mins and similarly 3–4 minutes for each Advanced level question. Always be in the exam mode.
Advice 19 : Try to be consistent, whatever the hours you study 8 or 12 doesn't really matters if you ain’t consistent.
Consistency, hard & smart work and dedication are very important apart from studying dedicatedly.
Always finish your Home Work given by teachers on time and attend the discussion enthusiastically!
Advice 20 : Make short notes of each and every chapter. Take an A4 sheet and write all the formulae and the concepts only which you tend to forget at times. After you’ve finished syllabus, you will have 40–50 such A4 sheets. Before any mock, just revise them rather than going through a lot of notebooks.
Advice 21 : Two weeks prior to the final exam, revise the syllabus from your notebooks and give one mock everyday till the last three days before exams. Next day, revise the whole syllabus from the short notes you prepared!
Do not study a day or two before the final JEE Mains or Advanced! Try to relax, watch a movie or play games but do not study (you can revise inorganic though)
Advice 22 : After the class is over, revise what was taught and do the HW given regularly. This is more important than clearing backlog. Strengthen what you have in your hands now rather than worrying over what is lost. Next day get involved in discussion of questions. This way you’ll grasp a topic really well!
I'll add more of such advices. In the meanwhile, all the best for your preparations!
You can always DM me freely :-)
Edit : I compiled my first year at IITK, do have a watch

Do female users get harassed for the questions and answers they post on Quora? | I once answered a question that was basically a guy asking:
Guy 1 is X
Guy 2 is Y
Which guy would you pick?
Both X and Y seemed like pretty negative traits to me. I answered that I would pick neither guy. A lot of other men and women wrote similar responses.
The original poster got pretty mad. He wrote an angry comment on my answer saying that X was a great trait. That women should love dating guys who were X. That Y was terrible.
Apparently, this guy was Guy 1 and I’m guessing he got left by a girl for Guy 2. He felt unjustly spurned and wanted confirmation from Quora that he was the better choice. I guess he didn’t expect that most answers would be for Guy 2 or neither guy.
I read through the other answers and he had commented on every single girl who wrote that they would pick neither guy or that they would pick Guy 2. He wrote that they were stupid, that they didn’t understand X, that they were all wrong. For the one, single girl who wrote that she would pick Guy 1, he commented that she had made the right choice.
However, he didn’t leave any comments on the answers left by men. Apparently, their opinions on the matter were totally fine. One man wrote a pretty snide answer as to why X and Y were terrible. No comments from the original poster. Only the women were wrong for thinking both X and Y were bad.

What is your opinion on the trend of wearing "Dad Sneakers" or Converse Chuck Taylor All-Star sneakers? Do you own any yourself and, if so, what styles do you have and how did you end up owning them? What kind of outfits do you pair them with? | I think it’s great that people are expressing themselves through their fashion choices and that “dad sneakers” are having a moment. I own a few pairs of Converse Chuck Taylor All-Star sneakers myself and I love how versatile they are. I can wear them with jeans and a t-shirt for a casual look or dress them up with a skirt and blouse for a more put-together look. I think they’re a great choice for any outfit, no matter the occasion.

I'm afraid and shy to talk to beautiful girls, what are some tips and cheats to overcome it? | This is a matter of confidence, so first-thing-first, you gotta work on your confidence.
You learn how to speak better with people only by practice, more so with girls.
The more you talk, the better you become.
So what I would suggest is for you to watch some YouTube videos on both these topics; there are loads of them.
Here is a link for a TED-Ed on confidence building:

What do gun fanatics have to say about the fact that there are over 130 studies proving that gun control works? Do they just deny the facts? | Nothing! Unless you can produce the 130 studies, I will, rightfully continue to believe they do not exist.

What is the best love story people can come up with in two sentences? | I have a love story to share!
Boy - I wanna say something.
Girl - yes.
Boy - Ok, then listen carefully,
“I will listen to you,
Even when you have nothing to say,
I will keep you in my heart,
When we have no shelter to stay,
I will walk with you,
Whether flowers or thorns are laid down on your way”.
“ I love you”
Girl blushes and say I love you too.
These lines are from my poem “I will”.
Thanks!
Hope you enjoyed reading.

If you walk into a buffet restaurant technically during their "lunch times" but leave during "dinner times" assuming they are two different prices which price do you get charged? | Much like buffets themselves, there’s no one answer to this question. First of all, in order to avoid these kinds of issues (especially where there’s a material difference between lunch and dinner offerings), many buffets will close at 2:00 or 3:00 before opening at 5:00, as that way, there are no in-between customers.
Of those that don’t close, your arrival time is most likely to determine your price, so if you arrived at 4:30 (let’s assume dinner starts at 5:00) and stayed through 6:00, you’re likely to pay the “lunch” rate, although some places do limit what you can consume if you specifically choose a lunch option.

Which song that was a major hit for an artist or band also created a backlash for them? | “The Ballad of John and Yoko” by the Beatles. It’s a story of the frustrations they encountered trying to get married. The chorus line was “Christ, you know it ain’t easy….the way things are going they’re gonna crucify me.” Naturally the religious fanatics in the USA went totally apeshit. But the song went to number one in 1969.

What are the ways the "all you can eat" rules are abused at buffets? | I think seeing someone take food from the buffet directly with their hands instead of using the utensils provided.

Why are the Kannadigas the least known among South Indians? | The answer given below is in great detail.

Social Sciences: | My wife teaches psychology, and I tease her all the time by telling her that psychology isn't a science. Of course she says it is and then I ask her what is the first law of psychology? There must be some laws or rules, right? I know the first law of thermodynamics, and it plays into many,many other formulas.
But, yeah, I consider it a science because of the way the research is conducted, using scientific methods, peer reviews, etc.

How did a plane crash on the upper floors of the World Trade Center result in the entire building collapsing? | The plane crash itself did not cause the collapse of the twins , it was the fire and the jet fuel. If you're wondering why the south tower fell first it's mainly due to the blast from the impact and the plane hit a lower part of the building causing it to be more unstable.

Does Dubai have a state of the art sewage system? | The sewage plant in Al Awir is one of the main areas of wastewater treatment in Dubai. It has been significantly expanded in recent years.
Does Dubai have a sewage problem?
As Dubai's population has boomed and its skyline expanded on a tremendous scale at great speed, some basic city needs suffer apparent neglect. Dr. Mohammad Raouf, an environmental economist based in Dubai, confirmed the Times Online report. He says the sewage dumping does happen and that it is a problem of capacity.
Local municipalities in the UAE are responsible for managing, disposing, and treatment of [LINKED_TEXT: wastewater] [URL: https://www.wateronics.ae/brackish-water-ro-plant.html]. To match with the steep rise in sewage generation as a direct effect of an increase in the UAE's population, the government is investing in upgrading and extending sewer systems to ensure a sustainable sewage disposal and treatment system. Some of these projects are mentioned below by Emirates.
Dubai is planning to build a new 30 billion dirham ($8.17 billion) deep-tunnel sewage system to be completed in 2025, the emirate said in a statement carried by state news agency WAM on Sunday.
Dubai Municipality has completed feasibility studies for the project and begun work on its design, the statement said. Construction is expected to start in 2019.
The tunnels will replace electricity-powered pumping stations to cut costs in sending sewage out to Dubai’s two waste treatment plants, which produce irrigation water for the arid city’s dozens of mega-projects.

Why is Amul sponsoring Afghanistan and not India in the ICC World Cup 2019? | Maybe Amul won the bid to sponsor Afghan cricket. That's good news for India. Amul exporting their products to Afganistan via Chabhar port in Iran -road to Afg. It will contribute to Indian Forex. Sponsorship to Afgan national team is best way to promote the brand in ‘Afghanistan’. It will increase more brand awareness & national trust among Afgani about quality of brand & product. Taliban will also consume Amul ghee, Amul Garlic cheese spread, Amul butter milk, Amul kool etc.
OPPO Chinese brand sponsoring Indian team, Yonex Japanese sponsoring Indian badminton, Head USA sponsoring Indian tennis players, Vodafone sponsoring Indian Badminton league, vivo sponsoring Kabbadi leag etc. Yup, that's best brand promotion activity. Highest bidder wins the sponsorship.
