Is it possible to do a paternity test on a child by testing only the mother and her two sons, with no dad?

Posted by admin on March 9th, 2010 and filed under test only | 7 Comments »

Can they determine if the two sons are 100% blood brothers? This would tell us who the father was of the one child… We know who the father is of the other child. Neither possible father will participate in the testing.

You can test brothers, who will have similar markers on the paternal side.

You can also get a court order to have them tested, and made responsible for the tests. If they aren’t the father, you pay, if they are, they pay. If you’re poor, the state pays.

How many batsmen opened only once in Test matches?

How many batsmen who have played at least 10 Tests opened only once, I can only think of a few Aussies from the 70’s and 80’s but nobody more recently….

Rod Marsh
Greg Matthews
Peter Taylor
Kerry O’Keeffe
Hussey opened in his first 2 Tests and 3 times since then

There are a lot of players

Hedley Verity, Peter May (Eng)
Jack Ryder, Kerry O’Keeffe, Adam Gilchrist, Mark Waugh (Aus)
Andrew Jones, Brendon McCullum, Nathan Astle (NZl)
Hashim Amla (SAf)
Sarfraz Nawaz (Pak)
Alvin Kallicharan, Learie Constantine, Jimmy Adams (WI)
Sourav Ganguly, Sachin Tendulkar, Yuvraj Singh (Ind)

CA folk: What is the difference between a ‘test only’ smog station and a regular one?

Posted by admin on March 5th, 2010 and filed under test only | 3 Comments »

My husband thinks there’s a big difference and one is better than the other. Please enlighten us!

Periodically the state will require you to get your annual smog certification from a "test only" station, which has more sensitive equipment. Generally, unless required, I would not go to one as your chances of passing are generally lower (the regular stations are not as strict). I also think the "test only" stations are more expensive.

Also, before going to get tested, make sure to drive the car around for awhile.

ALSO, IN RESPONSE TO THE STATEMENT BELOW (THIS IS AN EXCERPT FROM THE STATE WEBSITE):

Two Percent Randomly Selected - As required by State law, two percent of the vehicles in the Enhanced Areas are also directed to Test-Only stations for their Smog Checks. These vehicles are selected randomly to evaluate the overall effectiveness of the Smog Check Program.

How Motorists are Notified - The Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) notifies owners of vehicles that have been selected to have their Smog Checks performed at Test-Only stations. The registration Renewal Notice sent for these vehicles will say "Smog Certification Required at Test-Only Center".

does the Florida learners permit test only have multiple choice questions?

Posted by admin on March 1st, 2010 and filed under test only | 1 Comment »

is it only multiple choice? how many questions are there usually?..40? and is it hard?..also do you guys know any free websites i can practice?

i just took mine today, its all multiple choice there is 2 sections the first one is rules/ knowledge questions 20 questions and the other section is the driving signs which has 20 questions you have to get 15 on both of them to pass.

i passed the driving signs one which was extremely easy 18/20
but failed the rules/ knowledge questions i got 12/20 so i have to retake the rules/ knowledge questions.

am also wondering if there is a free practice website to study the rules/ knowledge section

How accurate is a home pregnancy test if taken only 1 day after missed period?

Posted by admin on February 27th, 2010 and filed under test only | 7 Comments »

I took a preg. test this morning the first morning after my missed period and it was negative. Just wondering how accurate is it after only one day passed missed period.

Most test say that they are 99% accurate the day of your missed period, however, some women may not have enough hCG to register a positive result that quickly. I would wait a day or two (since it takes 2-3 days for your hCG levels to double) and test again. Buy a test that is very sensitive, use the first morning urine and cross your fingers.

Good luck!

If you still get a negative, then you may want to wait a few more days or go and get a blood test. For some reason, some women get negative test well into their first trimester, so a blood test may be an option.

I took a wallgreens home pregnancy test and only the outlines of the "Plus" (not of the minus) turned blue,

Posted by admin on February 25th, 2010 and filed under test only | 3 Comments »

I am 2 days overdue and I repeated that test twice (two tests in one package) both came out exactly the same way. The minus sign was fully there and only the outlines of the plus line turned blue, and had no color in between. Is that an evaporation line? The result turned that way right away, well as soon as I it cleared enough to read it..The control line took 5 minutes with both tests to fully develop.

The HCG hormones are stronger (most condensed) in your first morning urine.

But, as the other gals have said…go to the doctor for a more accurate result. They can do a quick blood draw, and tell you with all certainty that you are pregnant or not.

If you want to try another HPT before hitting the doctor’s office, then try again using first morning urine… Wait a couple of days and repeat again.

If you are pregnant now, you will still be pregnant in a day or so…it might just be too early to appear clearly on a test.

Infer why it is important to test only one variable at a time during a science experiment?

Posted by admin on February 23rd, 2010 and filed under test only | 4 Comments »


Say if you decided to change two different things in the experiment and you got a result that you liked and wanted to document… how would you know which of the things you changed was the cause of the positive result? If you change only one at a time you know what caused the result.

why is it important to test only one variable at a time during a science experiment?

Posted by admin on February 21st, 2010 and filed under test only | 3 Comments »


Otherwise, you have no idea which variable change affected the result. Did the plant die for lack of light? Or because you also cut off its air supply? Or put it in a closet full of mothballs? Or put it in reach of the cat who tore it up? Or put it out of sight so you forgot to water it?

Using the Integral Test ONLY, is it possible to determine if the following series is absolutely convergent?

Posted by admin on February 19th, 2010 and filed under test only | 1 Comment »

Sum from n=0 to Infinity of: [sqrt(n+1) - sqrt(n)].

Without rearanging the above series at all, and without multiplying top and bottom by [sqrt(n+1) + sqrt (n)], is it possible to apply the Integral Test to determine if the series is convergent? If there is some reason you cannot use the Integral Test without first multiplying the top and bottom by [sqrt(n+1) + sqrt(n)] please explain WHY. If the Integral Test CAN be used without manipulating the series at all, please show the steps to get the answer as to whether it converges. Thank you.

This is an interesting question. I’m going to say no.

If you do the integration, you essentially get (disregarding constants) infinity minus infinity. We would need to use some additional limit process to know whether this evaluates to infinity, zero, or negative infinity. So if we are completely restricted to the integral test, I’d say we cannot conclude that the series converges or diverges.

is it possible to see results on a pregnancy test only three days days after having sex?

Posted by admin on February 17th, 2010 and filed under test only | 5 Comments »

me and my now ex girlfriend had sex without protection on a saturday night and we got in a fight the next day and broke up. now she is saying that she took a pregnancy test that monday and it came out positive. i have a feeling she is lying to me but i am not sure how they work. is there ANY posibility that what she said is true?

The only way would be if she was already pregnant before you guys had sex that Saturday. It never comes up positive that fast.
