how do you configure your pc router? read the manual. if you dont have one, its fake.

how do you feel about protecting our border.? i want all of our borders and ports not only protected, but firmly secured! no one is allowed to enter or exit without being identified. as a law abiding citizen, i would not be opposed to show my id anytime anyone of authority wanted to check. unlike so many of the whining bleeding hearts who would file law suits because an official asked to see their id. freedom has never come without a cost. i don't think it is asking too much for every legal american citizen to be prepared to show proper documentation as to who they are to authorities. so what that because of your heritage you may look hispanic or italian or german..and authorities ask for your paperwork! be proud of your heritage but be more proud that you have legal paperwork to prove who you are. unfortunately, too many of today's citizens would take the "offended" route and try to use the "race card". we had all better start looking for ways to get along as one nation under god without "being offended" or our ship just may sink. you had better think about this!

do you think that indian stock market is manipulated by a group of financial companies with connivance ofmedia probably. the indian market isn't as regulated as us or european markets. but it's easy to become overly paranoid when one's money is on the line. my experience is that if you invest in a sound indian company, like wipro or infosys or an etf like the india fund (ifn) for the long haul you're going to make money because, let's face it, nothing is going to stop india's growth. but in the current market, with the number of hedge funds and margin buying involved in a relatively thinly traded market (the market capitalization of the indian market is rather small compared to the u.s.) any freak out by the herd will result in dramatic crashes like we saw in may. india is more democratic than most developing countries, they have more phd's than the u.s., they've recently allowed foreign companies to open factories without having an "indian partner", so the country is moving toward a freer market in order to attract foreign investment. i wouldn't get too paranoid.

how can key executives inflate earnings using the stock options? is it because of the omitting of expenses? to my knowledge, they can't. stock options have nothing to do with inflating earnings. if anything, they deflate the earnings statement b/c they now have to be expensed at issue (a provision of sox). if executives omit the options expense on the earnings report i think they're comitting faud.

has the current administration let american manufacturing jobs leave american soil .? they're not only letting them leave they're actually helping push them out with tax and other incentives. i agree that it's not just this administration but it has accelerated considerably under them. one other thing everything that i buy that's made overseas is utter crap,i bought a pair of jeans a couple of months ago, the first time i washed them they fell apart, i have had my american made jeans for years so someone tell me where the savings are.all this is is putting hugh amounts of money in a few peoples pockets and everyone else can go take a flying leap. many of the other imported things i have bought have done the same thing,i check where things are made before i buy something and i'm finding fewer and fewer things made here that are even available and it's really starting to piss me off!!! i don't like the idea of having to go out and buy new pants or whatever else every few months, give me american made every time.

en cas d'élimination de la france lors du premier tour, que se passera-t-il? quel sera le nouveau selectionneur au cas où domenech sera limogé (fort probable en cas de défaite rapide). quelle équipe pour se sortir de la zidanodépendance? quels joueurs jeunes et promis à un grand avenir deviendraient selectionnables dans l'optique de rebatir une bonne équipe. quels cadres devraient rester? en cas d'élimination avant les 1/4, j'espère que la dtn exigera la démission de domenech. pour les joueurs, place aux jeunes (mexes, toulalan, faubert), bien entourés de quelques cadres : sagnol, makelele (au moins pour les éliminatoires), henry. suppression de la "liste noire" : retour de micoud et pires (qui avaient leur place en allemagne). quoi qu'il en soit, il faudra faire tres vite : france-italie éliminatoires ce 2008 dès le mois de septembre !

while the radical symbol is widely used......? while the radical symbol is widely used, converting to rational exponents has advantages. explain an advantage of rational exponents over the radical sign. include in your answer an example of an equation easier to solve as a rational exponent rather then a radical sign. maybe something like 7^(1/3) over 7^(1/2) that's the same as the cube root of 7 over the square root of 7. to solve it, you would just subtract the exponents and you'd get 1 over 7^(1/6) i hope that is what you are looking for.

doesn't "i just got through" or "i just finished" sound so much better than "i just got done". you hear so many people use the phrase,"are you done?" or "i am done with it!" and it sounds so crude and supposedly these are educated and erudite people. i thought something being "done" had to do with it being thoroughly cooked! i agree

world war iii 2? read what i added to my first one if you havent all ready. its a lot of info about countries we see as threats. it is not really like the past 2 wars. but more of a series of wars. with the americans and their allies on one hand; china with other nations, in opposite opinion with the americans, and a third party, who are the opponents of the americans. i believe that the americans have to go to war mainly not to protect their people from osama bin laden. but it is more because of the oil in iraq and the business that it will generate to stop or even slow down overheating of their economy/ or recession. if the troops from iraq go home right now, i am sure that the us stock exchange will crash and there will be a recession in the us. and there's nothing americans can do about the ever growing economy of the chinese, who do good business with us foes like iran.

how can we improve power factor using a synchro motor? by "improve", i assume you want total power factor seen on the power "inputs" to your business or plant to more closely equal 1 (unity). by playing with the field excitation of your synchronous motor, you can make the unloaded synchronous motor either act as a capacitive load or inductive load. typically, other loads in a plant (transformers, induction motors, etc.) are slightly inductive, and the desired power factor correction needs to act as a capacitive load. in this case, you would want to overexcite the synchronous motor field (on the rotor) so that the rotor "leads" stator current (actually, unity power factor on a synchronous motor is realized when the rotor field lags the stator field current by 90 degrees, thus "leading" here means that the rotor lags the field current by less than 90 degrees). play with your motor field excitation until the out-of-phase current in the rest of your plant is canceled by the leading current being produced by the synchronous motor. for more information, look up keyword "synchronous condenser" on the web.

does vinegar help you lose weight? apple cider vinegar use this diuretic in small quantities. you can add it to your salad as a dressing. what makes this such a powerful diuretic is this: it is made from apples and the malic acid in apples will create a fat burning process. another factor with this vinegar is the fermentation process causes the vinegar to have constructive acids that join with alkaline elements and minerals in the body. this produces a cell scrubbing effect. it also contains high levels of potassium, which has an antisceptic quality to that helps to eliminate fat deposits. but like with anything, you should use it in moderation. :)

signs of sleep deprivation..? why do the whites of your eyes become reddened after a night of no sleep? sometimes the bloodvessels on the uvea become visible with no sleep, what's up with that? and also, what's up with the 'bags' under your eyes? what are those? any reason for them? sleep deprivation means more eye activity. the extra activity causes two things. the strain and irritation cause the blood vessels in your eyes to dilate, trying to circulate more blood through to alleviate the irritation. this causes your eyes to become bloodshot. the increased blood flow isn't isolated to your the surface of your eyes. your eyelids also receive more blood flow, causing them to become puffy and swollen. the increased blood flow also causes a color change in the eyelids, making them appear darker, especially the bottom lids.

if he had dome things differently, could eisenhower have won the war in europe in 1944? if so, how? i recollect reading, i'm not sure where, that the politicians expected eisenhower to wrap up the invasion of europe in 1944. there were several reasons why the western politicans needed to knock germany out of the war quickly. we were lucky the v2 rockets didn't have a nastier payload, if we had beaten germany in faster we could have liberated poland (which was after all the reason britain went to war) instead of handing it over to russia domination, and of course we could have diverted forces against japan. its doubtful. in 1944 the german military was far from being a spent force and fought hard along the whole line of advance. also the d-day landings were only part of the issue as to properly equip and maintain the invasion forces you had to have a working port, which is why the british pushed quickly north and fought so hard to capture antwerp. it was only then that motgomery and patton could get the basic supplies they needed to push forward without over extending supply lines, so there was a strong logistics hold up. the third element was hitlers last gasp attempt to break the allies in the battle of the bulge, which no-one expected. whilst ultimately defeated that german attack set the war plans back at least two months whilst units were rested and re-cycled into and out of the battle zone. it is also true that patton and montgomery were halted before the wars end so that the russians could take berlin. this was against the advice and wishes of churchill who could see what was going to happen. lke however didnt want the casualties associated with street fighting in the german capital.

please help!!!!!!!! legal question regarding a workmans comp. injury.? i was involved in a workman’s comp related injury.. as a result i hired a law firm to handle the case. 4 years later we have reached an agreement to settle. being that this was a workman’s comp case i am now being told that because my injury sustained has already reached $67,000 in charges for surgeries and medical visits. (this all still has not corrected my problem.)the lawyer tells me that comp pays the first $50,000 then any awards received must go back to comp before they will continue treating my injuries. is this true? my medical bills reached over $80,000.00 for a work comp injury and they had no choice but to pay them. i also made them pay future medical bills and they had to pay for the percentage of loss that i had. check the laws for your state on workers comp. and don't always trust your attorney. there are good honest ones out there but there are also the ones who want you to settle just so they can get their money.

where can i locate a franchise business directory where i can search by state to find headquarter locations? searching for franchises that have their headquarters in the state of minnesota have you tried these? another option is look at retailers or industries by state, like the food marketing institute (fmi) or the national retail federation (nrf), or retail direct or retail industry. these will identify companies that operate, or want to operate, in various states and enterprises. that helps you narrow things down to what fits your interest or ability.

shouldn't we not allow children of illegals into schools? seems like if we stopped educating peoples children (who didn't speak english and) couldn't prove citizenship, we'd have a whole lot less problems right out front. if these kids are running the streets and are school age, bingo, ...we have caught them and their parents. why in heaven's name do we let the children of illegal immigrants/aliens come into our schools and then change the ciriculum to spanish cuz they can't speak english? what about the american kids needs? this is so nuts i can't fathom it. what's the deal here? yes, you are very right. i agree. parents should have to show their children's us birth certificates at the time of registration of their children in school. for the ones born here, okay, of course they can go to school in the us. for the ones not born here and no legal documentation for being in the us, no they should not be able to go to school in the us. their parents are the ones at fault for bringing them to the us illegally. if they really care about their children and want them to get a us education, then they should have thought about that before and should have applied legally to come into the us with their children. or, they should have left their children at home in their own country, applied for themselves a work visa in the us and send money home to pay for their children to go to a proper school in their own country. american taxpayers should not have to foot the bill to educate their children. i feel sorry for these children for having such thoughtless parents as to bring them into another country illegally, but we cannot afford to pay for everything for them.

what is the best way to learn html, css, and java script? does anyone know any good books for that? when i first started to learn html i was taking a intro class, but i took a lot from http://www.htmlgoodies.com. but as i got more into it and found that xhtml along with css was the way to go. so i took another class and the books we used were very help-full. these were: - html: your visual blueprint for designing web pages with html, css, and xhtml. isbn: 0-7645-8331-x this book can take you step by step visually, and is a handy reference guide after you master html and xhtml. -designing with web standards by. jeffery zeldman isbn: 0735712018 this is a great book that explains good design practices, and was a jump off point for me to see exactly the power of css

why do people ask "does she/he love me" ? serious answers only? if u gotta ask doesn't that say enough in it's own!! i have seen this in several questions. i am just trying to find out why ask strangers what they think if u are already in doubt about a persons love because that's what is in their head, people tend to think about others what they really mean about themselvs. when they say that , they are saying : do i really love him/her. it's their question and their thought about what they feel. byron katie has done some interesting work on this subject, i think her site is www.thework.com take a peek there it is really enlightening.

can children less than 2 years take chlorpheniramine maleat? abosolutely not!! as a doctor i would have to implore you not to take that action. first because all anti-histamines have many side effects that include: dizziness, tinnitus, blurred vision, euphoria, uncoordination, anxiety, insomnia, tremor, nausea and vomiting, constipation, diarrhoea, dry mouth, and dry cough. infrequent adverse effects include: urinary retention, palpitations, hypotension, headache, hallucination, and psychosis. and since your son or daughter is less than two years old this list is many times more likely to happen. also, the drug chlorphenamine, has an anti-deppressant property that blocks that transmission of seratonan, because of that a swedish company a while back, i think, marketed a drug harnessed from chlorphenamine that was the first of its kind to block the reuptake of seratonan. in lamens terms that means it has the power to treat diseases such as: depression, anxiety disorders and personality disorders. do you really want to give that to a two year old child?

is it legal to melt a us coin to obtain the metal? supposedly it's illegal though (i'm giving away my age)...i remember when there was a big rush up in the price of silver to $50+ per ounce and coin dealers and antique shops were all rusing material to smelters (technical term for those who melt/refine metals). nobody was ever arrested for it that i'm aware of. numismatic value is determined by the date, mint, and condition of the coin so i'd check the redbook at the library to see if the coin is worth more than melt (melt is currently at around 6x face for silver).

who do u think will win,saudi arabia or tunisia??seriously plz? africa vs asia, usually africa wins. i think tunisia look very solid and should win. but saudi arabia is the seat of islam, there might be a thing called 'face' and both sides settle for the draw.

your idea of happiness is? having just enough to get through life, and i know it sounds corny, but dancing with my daughter at the concerts we attend together.

why is the workforce (particularly in buffalo) so full of incompetence? i have yet to work somewhere that i wasn't way more talented, intelligent, experienced, etc. than my boss! i'm only 26 and i'm having trouble not quitting jobs because i keep working for people who don't know how to do business. what's up with that?? i believe there are 4 factors involved. 1) people are generally more incompetent today. i used to manage a custom metal fabrication shop and i couldn't believe what basic concepts people don't know. 40 years ago people in this industry had to do everything by hand so they needed to know more about how things worked. now they just stand in front of a machine and push a button. the more we stop learning from experience (i.e. too much weight on one side of the see-saw keeps the other side from going down) and rely on observation (tv, etc) the worst we are going to get at applying useful information to new situations. 2) tying in with number one, people put too much emphasis on a sheep skin (degree). i know one guy who has a degree in business and another guy with a degree in engineering. they both own businesses but the one with the business degree is a better engineer and the opposite is true of the other guy. people learn better when they have to learn something in order to put food on the table. when someone has a degree in a certain area they tend to stop learning in that area because they think, "i have already learned it all.", even when what they learned doesn't actually apply to what is happening. 3) managers do not know how to manage people. that is their job. they are supposed to help you do your job, not try to do your job for you. they best managers are the ones who let their employees do what they know how to do. 4) companies are looking to spend less. i have found over time that the value of having a knowledgeable person in a position is hard to justify to the bean counters. instead of having a purchasing agent that knows what he is ordering and what type of service they are getting, companies put a glorified secretary in the position, who simply orders the numbers and goes with the lowest price. as for starting your own business, you are going to go from having stupid bosses to having stupid employees. hopefully you will eventually find a place where everything comes together for you.

why do the prudes here take my questions so seriously? hmm...lets think about the for a second... maybe because this is a serious answer site.. ask a stupid question...get a stupid answer ask a good question...get a good answer

is it easy to get a job in netherland? i am a fresh graduate with a ba and a bs in some science field, but do not speak dutch. maybe you should visit the official netherlands website and see what you can find out there.

would like to know where in nigeria can you cash in your money order? please beware...do not cash any money orders for them! here is a quote from a site i found talking about how a man was charged for changing money orders and getting others to cash them. here is a quote from the site that i am attaching the link for below: such an altering scam, which inspectors call "raising," works because the people who change the denominations are getting more sophisticated and have better printers and scanners, said inspector smith, a spokesman for the services' fort worth division. the scammers, who also counterfeit the orders entirely, sometimes collect the money by using people they encounter on the internet or in "lonely hearts club" chat rooms, he said. they persuade a person to cash the orders at banks – where not all tellers recognize the telltale signs of fraud, such as discolorations, missing security watermarks and ink bleeds. "they are looking for people who are easily duped," he said, speaking generally and not about mr. emuagbonrie. i hope this info helps you and causes you to be extra cautious and even possibly pass the persons info who contacted you onto autorities. it is very illegal. :-)

why do we still use the electoral college? i've seen a lot of responses that say it's because so smaller states have a say. what nonsense!! we have the "college" because our democracy is a farce. a popular vote means whoever receives the most votes wins. we, the american people aren't trusted to vote in a president. it is decided by our "betters". a popular vote is the only way a true democracy can function. that's why our's is broken. and needs fixing badly.

what do we do???? my fiance and i want to have a small wedding in the keys and when we told our family they all went crazy. her mom says that she cannot afford the hotel and gas, my father wants his wife to come but it is for immediate family only and she is not part of my family. this is how we want our wedding but this is not how we want our family to react. what do we do??? i actually experienced this myself. when my hubby & i wanted to go away to get married (inviting close family of course), everyone was cool with it but my mother and his father said he wouldn't pay to go. after a few months of stress, i gave in and had a bigger wedding here that everyone convienced me i would never forgive myself for not having....it ended up being the most stressful experience of my life! everyone had some sort of problem with something we were doing/not doing & we were paying for it! i about snapped. the first thing my hubby told me on the plane to our honeymoon was "you were right, we should have gone away!" we ended up not talking to anyone for about a month after we got back. i mean we would say hi and all, but we weren't going out of our way to call...sort of a cooling off period! do yourself a favor....follow what your heart says. its amazing how such a wonderful event brings out the worst in everyone. people can be so selfish! gl to you and best wishes! my vote is for an elopement! ;-)

iv'e just phoned in work? sick, how sick are you he asked, well i'm in bed with my two sisters how sick is that i replied ha ha heard that one before on a list of how to skive of work good one! what did he say!

which is correct: "legolas' arrows" or "legolas's arrows"? both would be correct. as is the case for the possessive form of singular common nouns, the possessive form of singular proper names ending in an s or z sound may be formed either by adding an apostrophe plus s or by adding just and apostrophe to the name. for the sake of consistency, most writers choose one pattern and stick to it. biblical and classical names, however are treated differently and use just the apostrophe: eg: moses' law, jesus' death, aristophanes' plays, etc.

why is q always followed by u in any word? q is not at all followed by 'u' always. followed only most of the time. see these words, "qabala, qabalah, qabalistic, qintar, qadi, qing dynasty". more than 100 words starts in "q" but not followed by 'u' in it.

i have a 16-pin character lcd that i would like to connect to a solderless breadboard. how can i do this? there is a picture of the lcd at http://character-lcd-lcds.shopeio.com/inventory/enlargeimage.asp?id=458 i would like to connect the lcd fairly securely to the breadboard so that i can focus on programming it without having to worry about loose connections or electrical shorts. is there a robust, standard way of doing this? is there a row of pins on the back of the lcd display? if not, you might be able to solder in a "header" which is a row of pins connected by plastic. if you get the ones that are spaced 0.100" apart, you can insert them into a solderless breadboard.

what duo do you think are the best baseball broadcasters? i think krukow and kuiper for the giants. also the best is obviously john miller also with the giants what do you think? these are on t.v, but "joe morgan" and that other guy that sits next to him. his name may be gary miller or something. or john, i don't know.

what would you do..................? there's this girl at work. she keeps asking me out. i always find excuses as to why i can't go out. she's really nice, but let's face it, i don't wanna go out with her. i don't want to hurt her feelings because she's a really sweet person. on the other hand, i can't keep playing dodge ball either. be as honest with her as you have been with us... it may hurt for a moment..but in the end you discover a great friendship blooming out of your truthfulness... not telling her, and avoiding her, will only lead to hurt for her and you. her, because she will always wonder why? and you, because you are carrying a secret, that would cause no harm to share...{guilt}

why do people homeschool their children? i mean, i know it's good to be book smart, but don't you want your kid to be street smart too? i was homeschooled through high school, am now in college (i think i'm the youngest in the whole campus!) and i think i'm plenty street smart. i mean, i can protect myself and have my share of common sense. being homeschooled doesn't mean sheltered from the world. my elder brother, a kindergarten drop-out, was pulled from mainstream school when his seatmate on the bus had a gun pointed at his head. granted, we grew up in what even the residents referred to as a ghetto, but still, the fact that me and my broher are both still alive and moral says something. you'd be amazed at how many people have asked my mom to a) teach them how to homeschool or b) homeschool their kids. a friend of mine was being sexually harrassed, reported it to the principal at her school, and was told to "deal with it". does that strike you as healthy? i believe that homeschooling is more of a protective than an academic measure, seeing as every homeschooling family i've met has chosen that path for moral or protective reasons first and educational reasons second. socialization-- the #1 question. i'm naturally shy in person (not in writing, as you can see!), and i'm quite certain that my shyness is not a by-product of homeschooling. neither of my brothers are one bit shy. in fact, my kid brother doesn't know a stranger. extra curricular activities for all of us involve heavily social environments. we all know how to protect ourselves should we be attacked, we all learn things the hard way, etc. though i'll admit to a certain degree of naivete in the past semester of college, by no means does this mean i learned everything out of a book. example: discussing native american stereotypes in poetry/short stories this april, i mentioned peyote beadwork, referring to it as "peyote". my experience with the word "peyote" has always been limited to a group of native american dancers, all of whom made their own costumes and beadwork. peyote, as far as i was concerned, was a style of beadwork, as opposed to applique or loom beading. i was embarrassed to learn, in that very class, that peyote is a hallucinogen. the memory still makes me feel naive and wet behind the ears, but i learned a valuable lesson: open mouth insert foot; remove foot, insert other foot. oh well. not all of my education as come from the curricula my mom has pieced together, but i confess a lot of the things i learned comes from books. "the blue girl" by charles delint, "the moorchild" by eloise mcgraw, "dreadnought!" and "battlestations!" by diane carey, (star trek novels are my guilty pleasure) and numerous other novels, ranging from science fiction and fantasy to mysteries and romances. so, to conclude, homeschooling doesn't, by definition, mean sheltered from the world. i think bruce tinsley said it best, though be worned that the following quote can be described as rude and unkind: "contary to popular belief, homeschooled kids are not less socialized than other kids. they just have to use smaller words and shorter sentences." i never said i was a saint.

are you desperate for jesus? no, that sounds kinda sick.

does anybody know when sun will cease to exist? the fate of the sun: about 5 billion years from now, the hydrogen fuel in the center of the sun will begin to run out and the helium that has collected there will begin to gravitationally contract, increasing the rate of hydrogen burning in a shell surrounding the core. our star will slowly bloat into a red giant -- eventually engulfing the inner planets, including the earth. as the helium core continues to contract under the influence of gravity, it will eventually reach the temperatures and densities needed to fuse three helium nuclei into a carbon nucleus. another nuclear reaction will compete for the available helium nuclei at the same temperature: the carbon can fuse with an additional helium nucleus to form oxygen. the amount of oxygen produced during this process is largely determined by the relative rates of these two competing reactions. since the sun is not very massive by stellar standards, it will never get hot enough in the center to produce nuclei much heavier than carbon and oxygen. these elements will collect in the center of the star, which will then shed most of its red giant envelope -- creating a planetary nebula -- and emerge as a hot white dwarf star. once a white dwarf star forms and the nuclear reactions have ceased, its structural and thermal evolution is dominated by cooling, and regulated by the opacity of its thin atmospheric outer layers. it will slowly fade as it radiates its residual thermal energy into space -- eventually cooling through a narrow range of temperatures that will cause it to vibrate in a periodic manner, sending gravity-driven seismic waves deep through the interior and bringing information to the surface in the form of brightness variations. this is fortunate, because a detailed record of the nuclear history of the star is locked inside, and pulsations provide the only known key to revealing it. about 99 percent of all stars in the galaxy will end their lives as white dwarfs. by studying the stars that have already gone through this process, we can learn about the ultimate fate of our own sun. http://www.whitedwarf.org/index.html?education/sunwd/&0 fate of the sun the sun has been shining for about 4.5 billion years. it has enough hydrogen fuel to "burn" for about 10 billion years. the size of the sun is a balance between the outward pressure made by the release of energy from nuclear fusion and the inward pull of gravity. when the core runs out of hydrogen fuel, it will contract under the weight of gravity; however, some hydrogen fusion will occur in the upper layers. as the core contracts, it heats up and this heats the upper layers causing them to expand. as the outer layers expand, the radius of the sun will increase and it will become a red giant. the radius of the red giant sun will be just beyond the earth's orbit, so the earth will plunge into the core of the red giant sun and be vaporized. at some point after this, the core will become hot enough to cause the helium to fuse into carbon. when the helium fuel has exhausted, the core will expand and cool. the upper layers will expand and eject material. finally, the core will cool into a white dwarf and then eventually into a black dwarf. this entire process will take a few billion years. as you can see, our sun is quite complex and interesting, and now you know more about how it produces the light and heat that all life on earth depends on. http://science.howstuffworks.com/sun5.htm

how do companies set up daycare centers for their employees? have to find a provider, and be willing to match premiums

what was the name of the song brian mcknight did with a group of men in the early nineties? it was like an anthem for men and i think it went to a movie brian mcknight co-wrote the song "you will know" which was featured on the soundtrack for the movie, "jason's lyric." the song was also co-written by d'angelo, of "brown sugar" fame. the song featured a cast of all star r&b singers ranging from gerald levert, keith sweat, tevin campbell, r. kelly, and boyz ii men.

does anyone else think that sven looks like mr burns from the simpsons? yeah...lol....i never noticed that before!

can anybody please tell me what teetion and lilk stand for? these words appear in a modern sci-fi fairy tale. they are place names - teetion valley and the plains of lilk. they aree probably made-up names that mean nothing, but sounded good to the author.
