Flight path from Australia to North America - Why choose the circuitous way? Hi Guys, I have this seemingly stupid question. I searched a lot for the answer but couldn't find a cogent argument. Here it goes: What is the distance between Australia and USA when measured over the Oceania and the pacific ocean. From the atlas, it appears that the two continents are only separated by the pacific ocean. Then why do flights that fly from Australia to the USA prefer to fly over Asia, Africa and Europe when they can fly over the pacific and reach in a much shorter time? I don't know if I'm making sense but I've this curiosity since a long time and want to put it to rest!

Weather climate and politics ? I have recently found a 5 to 8 degree C gap in the averages of the far north listed average Atlas of Canada 1981 to listed average Yahoo weather -- No surprise if you look into other places --- it is the same story although not at big When you look up the averages now --it more of less matches the temps offered by the weather forecasts --- but they have clearly "updated" those averages - What disturbs me is they didn't bother to tell anyone and the past averages seem to have all disappeared unless you own old books and Atlas's your screwed 1)Are politicians scientists and media outlets being up front enough with the public about climate changes ? 2) Do you get the impression there is a purposeful misdirection from the weather in the news and by politicians and other media sources and or scientists reports 3) When it is discussed do you believe that an endless debate about cause is used as a distraction from telling people what is actually happening ? 4) What is the weather and or climate where you live ? Has it changed in any significant way or not at all --- Either way what general part of the North America or the world are you in (eg North west US Eastern Canada --- Australia England etc) ? I live in southern Ontario Canada - Last year and the year before were very mild winters - Recently I was walking with a tee shirt on , on New Years day ( I can't remember if it was 2005 or 06) Winters have significantly changed here - Snow fall is way down temperatures are up and it is mild most of the time when we should all be freezing and in snow drifts Ice fishing has almost ended as a recreational industry (Lakes aren't frozen and when they are they won't support an ice hut for near as much time as they used to) --- It is noticeable and weird Oh sure it is nice outside but at the same time a little scary kvicsinclair The odd thing is that if I did believe what the "drive by media" told me --- I would have your opinion Gerard de Ridefor† Lets just assume you are 100% right -- No one has ever been more right than you are this moment That does absolutely nothing to answer this question - or to understand what is and will be going on or how we are going to be dealing with it at all So -- again assuming your right -- you still have contributed absolutely nothing but a 1 dimensional idea on a subject that wasn't asked about and will never produce any results

I need to ask a favor of EVERYBODY!!!? I work in tourism in Central America and I have had many North-Americans or United States citizens call and tell me they "Are from America" or that they are "traveling in from America" and I want help from everybody to stop the ignorance. To people in Latin America this is an insult whether they perceive it or not. If you are leaving the United states or any other country in North America to visit Central or south America you are still on the same continent (dont take my word for it, look it up in a Atlas or something) but we (I am a US citizen) have a major problem when our countrymen visit other countries in America and open their mouths and make us seem ignorant. If you currently reffer to the United States of America as just plain "America" (as if it were the entire continent) I assure you many people are thinking you are ignorant (they may not say it to be polite, but it happens). Please, help me make a habit of improving our image worldwide. lets quit being "dumb gringos".

Does genetics disprove the Book of Mormon? Especially Evangelical Protestants? Tell me what you think about all of this? Evangelical Protestants don't let secular geneticists saying "Genetic inference shows we are cousins with apes" and "Noah's Ark is a fake" get in their way, but are excited to use the same genetics against the Book of Mormon (kind of hypocritical?). Regardless of whether or not the Book of Mormon is true, something to consider before thinking the BOM has been disproved: According to the National Institute of Health, 11% of the Druze of northern Israel and Lebanon area have DNA mitochondrial lineage group X2. http://www.pubmedcentral.nih.gov/articlerender.fcgi?artid=1180497 (26% of Druze have lineage group X if you don't only count the X2 but also X1 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haplogroup_X_(mtDNA) ) I go to the National Geographic website, and it says that there are five DNA mitochondrial lineage groups among Native Americans. The fifth mitochondrial lineage group, X2, is almost entirely absent from East Asia. National Geographic says because of that, there is a controversy about whether all of the Native Americans came from Eastern Asia or if some of them came from elsewhere https://genographic.nationalgeographic.com/genographic/atlas.html?card=mm014 Some may say that it came from European Explorers coming over; however, the National Institute of Health says that it's been confirmed from human remains that DNA mitochondrial lineage group X2 was here before Columbus. http://www.pubmedcentral.nih.gov/articlerender.fcgi?artid=1180497 Because mitochondrial lineage group X2 is found in some places of Europe and the Middle East, some debate about whether a prehistoric group from Europe went across the North Atlantic, others about a prehistoric group from the Middle East or Black Sea area who went across the Bering Straight, then others have other ideas. Remember that they're not Mormon, so of course they're not going to propose that one. Although this fifth DNA group only makes up 3% of all Native Americans, spread out all over the continent of North America, and some parts of South America, there are tribes with 5-25% mitochondrial lineage group X2. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haplogroup_X_(mtDNA) Remember that the Book of Mormon said that the Lehites spread out over a continent (whatever that means), vaguely mentions that there were other groups here that they met (could have possibly eventually mixed in with a larger group of people), and I believe D&C says that Native Americans in Missouri have a lineage from Lamanites (some of those 5-25% mitochondrial lineage group X2 Native American tribes are in that area). Some say that there's this place in the middle of nowhere in East Asia that has lineage X2. Well, all those people who have it there are so genetically similar to each other that many anthropologists believe they were probably a more recent migration than those who went to the Americas. Although many scientists believe this X2 was prehistoric, many scientists say that DNA molecular clock can only be support for but not prove how many years ago a lineage group split, because DNA molecular clock is based on statistical inference and not direct evidence; plus scientists often say that the DNA molecular clock can often be off by millions of years compared to what fossils say. So is it even reasonable to believe that whatever this group was, that it was prehistoric? Plus if a group as small as Lehi's family came across 600 BC, they could fit in really well and Native Americans could easily never even have their Lehite's DNA detected through their direct direct mother's nor father's lines, but still be ancestors of many Native Americans all over the place. Most Jews today don't have very common resemblance with their mitochondrial direct mother's line DNA, and you become a Jew through your mother's line. Judah and Manasseh (Coat of many colors Joseph's son) had different wives, so descendants would have different direct mother's lines. Remember, the Book of Mormon claims the Lehites came from the tribe of Manasseh, not Judah (the Jews). Lehi's ancestors migrated to the southern Kingdom of Judah before the Assyrians destroyed the northern Kingdom of Israel and spread them out all over the place. The Samaritans also mixed in with some from the lost tribes of Israel. The Druze of northern Israel also had some mingling with the Samaritans a thousand years ago, and the Druze have mostly been to themselves since then. The Druze have 11% mitochondrial lineage group X2, and 26% lineage X altogether. Interesting thought. So what are everyones' thoughts about this? Y Knot, after reading all of this and looking at the sources, please provide us with some evidence or rationale. ƝɨѕhҠѡe, From all the debate from how lineage X2 came over, many criticize that particular American Society of Human Genetics paper because it only makes a point that a different route isn't needed to explain the evidence, but they point out that it doesn't actually disprove other routes (such as that European hypothesis). That criticism also comes from non-Mormons. There is also debate, among non-Mormons, how accurate DNA molecular clock is. Many criticize it as estimating an older time than what fossils often may say. p.hurlbut, Regardless, there are many non-Mormons who believe that there may have been peoples who came separate than the East Asian migration, according to National Geographic https://genographic.nationalgeographic.com/genographic/atlas.html?card=mm014 And the National Institute of Health says that lineage X2 makes up 11% of the Druze of Northern Israel http://www.pubmedcentral.nih.gov/articlerender.fcgi?artid=1180497 Although they don't think it's the Book of Mormon people, the data from the "non-Mormons" is there. Also, many peer review sources say that most secular archaeologists believe that everything before King David was most likely myth, and debate King David and Solomon's Kingdoms. http://www.religioustolerance.org/chr_arhs.htm Most secular historians also debate whether the Gospels in the New Testament have any basis in reality whatsoever. So if Christianity can be true, despite all the archaeological and historical evidence, why wouldn't the LDS Church?

When people argue about Ancient Egyptians, are they thinking of the whole history or just the very first ones? You don't have to read the rest of this. Answer the question above. I put this together some months ago about Ancient Egypt period, not just the first ones or the ones that migrated to Egypt. Also this could be broken down proving each of Africans in Egypt, Arabs in Egypt and European in Egypt. So I decided to post this putting eveything I know together. This question very often, quickly becomes muddled in confusion. Both Ancient and Modern Egyptians were/are Arab Semitic White (65% of Egypt's population) as shall be demonstrated shortly. The "Hamitic theory" has been proven wrong and outdated by DNA(haploid testing) as well as anthropological testing. The Hamites have been described from the whole spectrum of Black to White(both Semitic and Indo European Aryan) to any admixture. About 30% is Black(mostly Nubian, some Nilotic), Black/Arab admixture-the Berbers and Moors are essentially Arabs with 8-15% Black heritage, and 5% all other ethnicities. The confusion comes about because Afro centrists want to claim the Black Nubians/people of Kemet were Ancient Egyptians. Ancient Nubia encompassed the lower Southwestern corner of present day Egypt(annexed in 1520 B.C.), the remainder being present day Sudan. Additionally, there were Black Nubian Pharoahs for an extremely short time frame from 800-700 B.C.. Many of the Pharoahs do exhibit admixture-Black/Arab mix as would be expected when two or more ethnicities are in close contact. Interestingly, National Geographic sponsored three professional team - American, Egyptian, and French to produce busts from x-rays of King Tut's mummy. The Egyptians and French were told whom they were working on, the Americans were not. Remarkably, the three teams came up with very similar looking busts, all three claiming King Tut was Caucasian. I will part with the experts here. My opinion is, King Tut appears of mixed Black/Arab heritage for the following reasons-he demonstrates a pronounced external occipital protuberance, almond shaped eyes, pronounced high cheek bones, scoop shoveled, teeth, and slightly fuller lips than most Caucasian - all Black features. He demonstrates a high forehead, pronounced, narrow nose, lips thinner than the average Black, oval head structure, and a recessed jaw ( most Blacks exhibit non medical prognathism-jaw slightly pronounced) - White features. He was probably of the exact same heritage as Anwar Sadat-Egyptian Arab Semitic White father-Sudanese/ Nubian/ Kemet mother-he denied this until shortly before his death. He always claimed Arab Semitic White. Afro centrists make the claim Egypt is in Africa, so Egypt is Black. Because one lives in/originates in, Africa does NOT mean that person is Black, but African. A full 1/3 of Africa(North) is Arab Semitic White. MODERN ETHNIC SAMPLINGS OF ARAB(SEMITIC WHITES) COMPARED TO BLACKS Arab(Semitic Whites) Americans: Lebanese heritage: Ralph Nader, Jamie Farr(Clinger on Mash), and the late Danny Thomas. Arab( Semitic White) Americans: Egyptian heritage: Dina Powell, Rami Malek compared to: MIXED: half Arab(Semitic White)-Egyptian/half Black(Sudanese): Anwar Sadat Black Americans: Bill Cosby, Denzel Washington, and Will Smith Clearly, you can tell the sets of men and one woman, do NOT fit in the same ethnic classification.The late Anwar Sadat, was half Arab (Semitic White)-Egyptian and half Black(Sudanese), many of the same features attributed to King Tut, whom most likely, was also bi-racial. When Blacks and Egyptians(Semitic Whites) intermarry, Black traits do dominate(i.e.-Anwar Sadat-(Egyptian Semitic White Father-Black Sudanese mother)). Homo sapiens idaltu, (similar to modern Blacks/N*egroid features) whom had Black features and Cro Magnon(similar to modern Whites/Caucasoid features) whom had White features, lived in Africa about the same time-both forms of Homo sapiens, now extinct-modern humans are a subspecies of Homo sapiens-Homo sapiens sapiens to be exact-so you can not say the first humans were Black or White. Also, the indigenous(originating there) peoples of Maghreb(the term is generally applied to all of Morocco, Algeria, and Tunisia, but in older Arabic usage pertained only to the area of the three countries between the high ranges of the Atlas Mountains and the Mediterranean Sea), are classified as Aboriginal Caucasoid(resembling/ appearing White/Caucasian). The Ancient Egyptians can no more be called Black than America can be called American Indian for the very same reason-they, quite simply, are NOT. WHAT GENETIC EVIDENCE IS THERE? A sampling of ethnicities in Egypt: http://mathildasanthropologyblog.wordpre... The following link also shows the DNA pattern of Ancient and Modern Egyptians whom were Arab Semitic White, NOT Black or even Hamitic(long outdated and proven wrong): http://muse.jhu.edu/journals/history_in_...

Only educated answers, PLEASE David - it's not a rant idiot. I'm sorry that you can't read if Tupac even if Tupac wrote this in ebonics himself. It's actually something I put together months ago. But you don't take education seriously so just shut up. David - Again, shut to the up. Do I have to talk ebonics to your illiterate, delusional self? If you can't read don't answer, if you can't pick apart what I say and show what's :dumb" then keep quiet. Tupac is dead, dumb enough, only a dead beat thug like you worships him to be some super intelligent intellectual, lol please save that for the streets. In fact get off the streets. Wow Amanda a troll created today talking trash? lol David stop getting others to fend for you, and this creation is just as dumb as you. lmao is she a ghetto White girl? Boo to the hoo David - lmao sucking up, because I'm just smarter than you. You never can prove your points about me. It's so funny, I could imagine how angry you look. I'm blacker than you, and I don't have a problem with urban blacks, I don't care for hoodlums like you, big difference. Great Buddah this is old, did you not read that? Of course not, but you can get the same information on Wikipedia, I just chose different sites, since wikipedia is widely used. I'm still waiting for you to prove your points about me David, argue this question, argue anything I said that made you more educated than I am, or I'm Pro White and Anti Black, maybe Anti Hoodlum. Come on prove it.....or shut up Thanks anoshorahim - I respect you and anyone with a brain. I like truth not conspiracy
