The force on an orbiting body acts as right angles to its motion, hence there is no change in its momentum (mv). Can ya slingshot toward a black hole?

This is true. A planet's velocity depends upon several factors. 1. The sun's mass 2. The planet's mass 3. The distance between them. It rotates at a speed where there is a neutralization of angular momentum. The outward force is based upon the planets mass and the speed it is rotating at. The inward force is based upon the equation F=G*M*m/r^2, where G is the universal constant 6.67 X 10^-11 NM^2/kg^2, M is the mass of the sun in kg, m is the mass of the planet is kg, and r is the distance between them in meters. Incorrect. The mass of the sun has no effect on it's orbital velocity. Only the mass of the orbiting object and the radius of the orbit have an effect on orbital velocity. The inward acting force (centripetal):M plannet*(v^2/r) "Outward acting force"??? This is commonly called "centrifugal force", and doesn't exist. There is no outward acting force on an object travelling with uniform circular(or satellite) motion. Got notes, fixed mistakes!! You are right about the sun's mass, now that I think about it. Centripital Force is inward, but there most certainly is a force acting outward. Centrifugal Force, or the tendancy of the planet to escape it's orbit definately exists, and is the same as it's Centripital Force. That is why the planet stays in it's orbit. Uh, wouldn't that account for the 'slingshot' effect or not? escape velocity?

Photons cannot have mass, according to Einstein. Oxidation of mitochondrial DNA You would age at the same rate. Unless there was a change in temperature. Increase temp, increase oxidation, and vice versa. sounds more like someone is talking about the measure of aging, atomic clock (absolute?) vs. length of day, period of revolution, etc. (relative), while the other is talking actually about biological aging.

the shape of the planetary orbit (eccentricity) can change with time from, for example, a more circular orbit to stretched elliptical orbit. not sure why but this was worked out mathematically, i think, by a pole or russian mathematician, last name Milankovitch--Milankovitch orbital parameters--for earth, I believe it's something on the order of 100,000 years for fluctuation in shape of orbit.

Reads like a sanitized environment where the teenagers hang out.

Definitely a ticket to banned camp.

Tame. You gotta use vulgar sexual terms and threaten violence.

yeah carnies are cool.

I like Bush...landing strips, shaved, ...

Why would anyone want to see that ol' skank nude? That's twisted. Anyone gettin' a woodie from that is one hard up dude.

Onanism?

Some interesting info about coffee-- 850 AD Legendary discovery of coffee by an Ethiopian goat herder named Kaldi. One night his goats don't return home. When he finds them, they are dancing around a shrub with red berries. After trying the berries himself, he too starts dancing. He later speaks with local monks who make a drink of the berries. 1100 AD First coffee trees are cultivated on the Arabian peninsula. Coffee beans are first boiled by Arabs making qahwa --- "that which prevents sleep". 1450-1475 AD Arabia. Coffee cultivation and drinking spreads rapidly in Yemen, at first for medicinal or religious purposes, such as promoting alertness during long nights of devotional exercises. 1475 The worlds first coffee shop, Kiva Han, opens in Constantinople. Turkish law makes it legal for a woman to divorce her husband if he fail to provide her with her daily quota of coffee. 1475 - 1500 Arabia. Dervishes spread the use of coffee to Medina and Mecca. Secular use becomes more prominent, in part because wine is forbidden by the Koran. Coffee houses are established and coffee becomes a much desired luxury. Many holy men begin to attack coffee as also contrary to the Koran. 1511 Khair Bey, the governor of Mecca, tries to ban coffee for fear that its influence might foster opposition to his rule. Coffee merchants are temporarily shut down in Constantinople. After a week long "reign of terror", the sultan sends word that coffee is sacred and has the governor executed.

Uh, just do what comes naturally.

Sure that's not the sign of spawned out salmon?

Found a new extreme sport.

Joe must be the low guy on the totem pole, sent there by some higher up sitting in a warm office. Either that or he's a cub reporter determined to show his persistence. Yeah right.

Looks like there was a lot of lovin' going on about April.
