I am curious as to how people who are 1/2 white, 1/4 black and 1/4 Asian look like. A typical scenario is where one parent is white/asian and the other is white/black.

Hi everybody i've got some fantastic astronomy pictures.:smile: if you've got any let's share them

7. First I took derivative and got f'(x)= 6x^2-72x+210. divided the whole thing by 6 and found the factors for x^2-12x+35. (x-7)(x-5) which will give me that the smaller critical number is x=5 and the bigger critical number is x=7. 8. First I set the equation to 0 and used the quadratic...

hey guys, hope you can help me with this, here's the picture: 1. to find whether it is increasing or decreasing, f'(x)<0 is decreasing and f'(x)>0 is increasing. so first-> i took the derivative and got f'(x)=12x^2+60x-168 and set it to zero to find the critical numbers. I got x= -7 and x=...

Help me out please ! for #4 I'm preeeetty sure i did it correctly but it wouldn't hurt having someone double check it. for #5 , I'm not sure if i took the second derivative correctly Will be on for the next couple hours trying to understand calculus ... :( Thanks in advance ^^

To buy postcards I had to visit Old City in Warsaw. We went there (with my better half) last Saturday. We took cameras with us. Stupid feeling, to behave like a tourist in your own city :smile: Castle Square with Zygmunt's Column. That's the view you will find everywhere, in every book about...

Hi, Does anybody know where on the web can I find photos of bacteria? I'm searching for co-agulase negative staphylococcus albus and C xerosis. Thanks a lot.

Ever since I updated the last edition of google Earth (which must have been a while ago now that I think of it) all those nice pictures that people have taken of places and put on panoramio that tag a location on the maps in google Earth aren't there anymore. I turn on all the different...

Real pictures from Space? Most people have seen pictures the Hubble space telescope has taken of deep space. These objects are so far away that in fact the light we are seeing has traveled many light years before even being detected. But what could happen to light over these unimaginably...

Ok, these pictures aren't the greatest. I did not take them with my camera. I took them with my cellphone as I did not have my camera for the first week. I set them all up on one web page so that pop-ups are minimized and that I won't have to keep track of them on a site like imageshack or...

Ok so I'm just interested (assuming others are too) of what people on here look like. I mean I wonder if people have a typical physics look. Might be a bit odd but I can't see any harm in this and am willing to let you all see me lol.

When satelites go to other planets to study them and take pictures are the pictures in color or black and white? and if they are in black in white how do they know what the color really is when adding color to the pictures?

hello, I need the code to write pictures to a file so I can read them sequentially.

I've included some pictures I've taken of some samples I've broken.. and 1095 steel has a more finer surface than ductile cast iron, and cast iron, however, it is not as brittle.. I would of thought that the more brittle the material was the more cleaner the break... but... anyone have an...

Why are the drawings http://britton.disted.camosun.bc.ca/escher/ascending_and_descending.jpg" breaking the laws of physics? Which laws and equations are they violating?

I can't get ImageShack to display my pictures any more; they just show as a red 'x' (and I can't do anything by clicking or right-clicking it). Before I go pestering the customer service guys, I thought that I'd check here to see if anyone else is experiencing similar.

Hello! I would really appreciate any help with this. I have a lot of graphs etc that I made in excel, and stored as bitmap/jpeg files. I would like to upload these to the calc. It does not matter where, as long as I can retrieve them with some ease. So far I have learned that I can...

I've always said I wanted to write a children's book. I wrote a poem that I think would be a great kid's book, but I ran into problems illustrating it because I can't draw. But there is no reason why real pictures couldn't be used instead. Picture a little kids book (maybe shaped like a cat's...

People usually say that pictures tell more than 1000 words. Is that still true in mathematics...? I think so. Let me first say what i mean by 'visual proof'. Let's say we have an identity. To prove it's true one may write from a line to more than one page. But what if one was able to write only...

I am using LaTeX quite a lot and I think that it is awesome stuff. However there is one little problem and that is inserting pictures into LaTeX I consider it pretty difficult to do. But a program like LaTeX which so many people use most have got an 'easy' way to insert pictures.

I went around campus last week to take some pictures, and I remember the sun was really bright that day. When I saw them at full size I noticed most of them were overexposed. When I took some from in shadows, I expected the white balance of the surroundings to be off because of the light...

Do correct me if i am wrong, but I am surprised news this explosive is not reported by the American or western media, even after it was broken by the press in Australia on 15th Feb. Instead they seemed to be quite obsessed with Cheney's quail mishap. Can you guys in America confirm or rebut...

Hi, I am looking for pictures (photos) which show how basic parallel and series circuits are set up. I have done a quick search on google but I haven't been able to find what I need. Any help would be really good thanks. Note: I am not looking for the schematic (circuit) diagrams which are...

Probably not worth starting a thread about, but let's make it one anyways. I want to see pictures of your work areas, or study areas. Although I still have more to put up, here are two of my whiteboard. I mentionned that I would post them a long time ago, so here it is. They are not of...

Busy night last night. I finally got some decent pictures of Mars, and with my new piggyback rig, I captured a bunch of open clusters and the Andromeda galaxy. With the moon near full and with a somewhat humid night and lots of light pollution, the Andromeda galaxy is pretty low contrast, but...

So how many people here actually take a lot of pictures? It seems like EVERYONE has a digital camera and there's so much digital camera crap with printers and such on the market... but I don't know anyone who actively takes a lot of pictures. Sure maybe a few a month... but no one seems to take...
