Answer to:
Could a 4th level dwarf and a 6th level half-elf magician slay a gelatanous cube? Depends on a lot of things. What class is the dwarf? What spells does the wizard have? What environment are they in (especially, can the cube trap them in a dead-end where they can't avoid being absorbed)? If the Dwarf is a Rogue, he should have a high enough Spot check and Reflex save to avoid being engulfed; if he's a Paladin, he should have a high enough Fort save to avoid...

Answer to:
So I am a student, I took a year off but I am going back in the fall. Would it be smart to finance a new vehicle because my other one keeps having problems, or should I stick it out while I am going to school to fix the car I have? Neither. Trade in your current car for a used car from a reputable dealer. You will probably end up paying a grand or two if you get a slight upgrade, but you definitely don't want to be under the extra burden of a new car payment while you're studying.

Answer to:
Who would win in a fight: power rangers, street sharks or ninja turtles? explain. As much as I hate to say it, I think the Power Rangers would end up getting in the big robot-thing and stepping on the Turtles and the Sharks. Unless you give Donatello a few days warning, then he'd build a gizmo that would fling such massive quantities of melted pizza cheese at the Ranger's robot that it would short circut and die. THen the Turtles win.

Answer to:
How do you avoid the monster in Skifree? You don't. The monster is there to make sure that all runs end in about the same place. You can speed up your character to be as fast as the monster by pressing 'F' while you're skiing, but you have to be miraculously good at the game to not immediately crash and have it catch up and eat you.

Answer to:
WHY DOES GRAPEFRUIT HELP TO SEETLE YOU STOMACH DIGESTION? Grapefruit, along with several other substances, contains a few of a large set of chemicals called "enzymes". Enzymes are produced by your body, and they help your body break down food. Many times, when your digestion is upset, it is because, for one of many reasons, your enzyme levels are low. Eating a grapefruit (or papaya, or pineapple) helps restore needed enzymes and thus,...

How do I drive through Olympic National Park? ONP is full of awesome stuff to see -- but it does make a huge barrier to the Olympia Peninsula, with one road -- Highway 101 -- going south on either side of ONP.

Best places to visit if you're driving (not hiking long distances): Hurricane Ridge (south...

My boyfriend has TONS of girls who are in love with him. crazy exes. he only loves me, but sometimes i get insecure because of all the girls who are like obsessed with him. i know he cant help it if he has crazy exes. how can i make myself feel better? The answer to your insecurity is not to try to 'feel better'. That goal will only make you temporarily less unsatisfied. Your goal should be to trust in and communicate with your boyfriend. Ask him to write you a letter that explains in detail why you are better than all those other crazy ho's, and why he loves you more than he ever loved them. If he's not willing to...

I felt let down and disrespected when my friend did a u-turn when he knew he could not and must not because a clear no u-turn sign was in place. Am I being too sensitive? Yes and no. The relevant question is: why do you feel that your friend is disrespecting *YOU* when s/he breaks the law? Stop and think hard about that for a minute, and then ask yourself: does your friend know that, and why, you might feel that way? IF your reason for feeling personally disrespected is one that is understood, then no, you're not. If it isn't one that your...

Answer to:
What doe we call words with 2 identical halves, such as lulu, murmur and hotshots? Tautonyms seems to ring many, many bells with Andrew Pook. Andrew Pook is correct. "Taut" is a root meaning "same" -- thus a "tautology" is "saying the same thing again", and a "tautonym" is "Named the same way twice". So if a video game equips a Fighter with a Fighter Sword, you have a tautology, but if it equips a Dancer with a Tutu, you have a tautonym.

What Role Playing game has the name Kars, Haven, Spargus, Xert and Nox in it? As far as I can tell, there is a single online message board called KH.vids.net that includes a role-playing subforum in which there exist characters with those names. It references a game called Kingdom Hearts, a console RPG featuring Disney characters in an otherwise non-kiddy game. The listed names may come from any game in the Kingdom Hearts series. Good luck!

Answer to:
Since first edition of AD&D the pit fiend has been the pinnacle of Hellish fury and power as a common monster i.e. not Graz'zt, Orcus, Asmodeus... you get the point! How come in V3.5 the Balor in the demons section is much more B/A than a Pit Fiend? In short: because they more clearly defined the role of Law vs. Chaos in creature tactics in 3.5. Balor, being Chaotic, are expected to show up alone and/or not work with their cohorts very well. Pit Fiends on the other hand are supposed to have complete control over what their minions are doing as well as have a complex plan in place for contingencies. That makes the Pit Fiend much more...

Is early winning good or bad on motivation in life game? Depends on your audience. If you're crafting a game for a bunch of competitive, high-school or college-aged guys, then early winning through extreme cunning or skill is fine (not luck though). If you're building a game for family-time, you want it to be more like a 'German' game -- no player elimination at all; let everyone participate until the winner is proven.

Answer to:
The phrase "one in a million" means someone or something rare or special. I would like to know the origin of this phrase. This one is pretty obvious. If you have a million widgets, and only one of them is good enough to be YOUR widget, then you say of YOUR widget that it is "one in a million". There is no more complicated etymology than that.

I read in today's LA Times about "HAVELIS", old, ornate houses in India. The article mentions that the word "HAVELI" comes from Persian. Being Persian myself, I can't decipher the etymology of this word. Can someone please help? From a book on Indian architecture I found on Project Gutenberg: ****** The presence of such structures would justify translating the word haveli as a "courtyard house." But there is some disagreement among architectural historians, however, as to the exact etymology of the word haveli. Haveli are found across medieval northwestern India, from Gujarat to Rajasthan to even the...

The phrase "hit a nerve" means to bring up a sensitive subject. I would like to know the origin of this phrase. There are dozens of places in the human body where nerves come close to the surface; the most well-known are the "funny bone" and the male scrotum. When fighting someone, hitting a nerve produces a shocking and usually unexpected effect not commensurate with the force the blow was delivered with. The sensitivity of nerves (and thus, their choice as targets of the less honorable of...

What component is present in every part of a loop, such as one that involves proteins producing energetic molecules from sugar? This is a very vague question. The answer seems to be "molecules".

Does a low-carb diet that restricts sugar, refined grains, trans fats and focuses on fresh, whole foods sound unhealthy to you? No. My wife has been on exactly that diet for the last year, and she has lost 60 pounds as well as cured her asthma, her sleeping problems, her PMS, and her backaches. She can also now walk a block without needing to stop and take a long break. She is still about 150 lbs overweight, but she's also still consistently losing about a pound each week. She hasn't suffered AT ALL...

Is "raw" sugar better for you than white, processed sugar? Why? Yes and no. Yes: Raw sugar has more of the vitamins and minerals that are naturally-occuring in the sugar cane, which means that it's less of an 'empty carb' than white sugar. No: Sugar is sugar, and all of it causes your blood insulin to spike, which causes your body to take any pre-existing sugars in your blood and turn them into fat and stick them onto your gut....

Why after eating chinese food, am I hungry like an hour later? It's the carbs. Carbs make you feel full fast, but then they make you feel hungry faster, too. Many Chinese restaurants (and other restaurants, too) load you up on carbs to give you that 'pleasantly-full' feeling on less food, but then the feeling doesn't last. To circumvent this problem, eat the meat-and-veggies dishes instead of the breaded, rice-based, or...
