I would like to go on a working holiday to another country. However, I do not know how the living arrangements are set up.
It would be great if someone who has done a working holiday before could help me out with this question.

All a working holiday visa does is it allows you to enter the country to live and work for a period of time. Beyond that, everything else is up to you.

Any more specific answer about how to go about finding accommodation will depend to at least some extent on the country.

In Australia for example, most people on WHVs travel around the country picking up casual work as they go. They stay in youth and backpacker hostels for a few days or a week or so at a time; they rent or buy camper vans and stay in them; they carry small tents and camping equipment and stay in camping grounds; when they want to stay somewhere for several months, they rent a room in shared accommodation. If they want to stay for 6 months or longer in one place, they may rent an apartment but in Australia at least, that’s not easy to do if they don’t have a steady job – most will go for shared accommodation where the other tenant/s hold the lease.

I need answer ,Please help..
The lighting of a room consists of 70% fluorescent lamps and %30 tungsten lamps.From a distance a lamp seen to have failed.Assuming that flourescent lamps have ,on average,7 times the lifetime of a tungsten lamp but both types fail randomly,What is the probability that the failed lamp is a tungsten type?

on an average, there will be 7 failures of a tungsten lamp
for every failure of a fluorescent one

P[failed lamp is tungsten] = 7*0.3 / (7*0.3 + 1 *0.7)

= 0.75

So I’m thinking of breeding tropical fish – my friend has and she told me all about it and I have the money for equipment. So my questions are:
What types of tropical fish would you recommend and how many of each?
What equipment do I need?

You should definitely start with some kind of Danio. Not only are they small but they are hardy, easy to feed and of course recommended by almost every fishkeeper as a beginners breeding fish. Others may say platies, guppies or othet livebearers but these can breed out of control.
You will need a filter and a heater and a group of 4+ danios if you want to breed them. They must be in a large group because otherwise they won’t be happy, and that way they have a larger choice and are more likely to breed. You might want a breeding trap as they tend to eat their own eggs, what you can do for this is separate the top and bottom of the tank with netting. Put the breeding pair in the top half and when they’re spawning the eggs should fall through the net to the bottom. Another method is to line the bottom of the tank with marbles. This allows the eggs to fall through the gaps between the marbles and out of harms way from the fish until the fish are separated from the eggs and the eggs are retrieved. Once you start hatching the eggs a good thing to do is get a hatchery thing. This is a small container that can be placed within the tank to separate the eggs or babies and the adult fish, still allowing water to flow through. Place the hatchery in the water and add the eggs. Once they have hatched(after about three nights? Idk) keep the babies in the hatchery and feed them tiny bits of crumbled food and when they are slightly older, newly hatched brine shrimp. Once the babies are strong enough to withstand the current of the filter and are large enough to not fit in their parents mouth you can introduce them to the main tank. Remember not all of them will get to this stage, but there will be many who do. I’m not sure how many babies the danios wil have but I’m sure someone else will tell you that. Good luck and happy fish-keeping!

I live in the UK and wish to become a doctor when I am older (only 14 now) but am interested in going into tropical medicine. How would I go about doing that? I know I’d have to go to medical school first and complete the 2 foundation years but then what? Would I train in a tropical medicine speciality or would I have to do some sort of other degree? And how is the working hours and pay for this speciality? Thank you.

Once you’ve finished all your basic training stuff then you would try and get a post at one of the big teaching hospitals specialising in tropical medicine and work your way up. Experience abroad is also invaluable but you would be expected to have some basic knowledge first. Pay would be much the same as the middle and top doctors in other fields but there wouldn’t be as much scope for private practice. If someone has a tropical disease they aren’t going to worry whether they pay for treatment or not, they’ll just be desperate to get better.

we are a family of 4 with 2 kids (9 and 14) and were looking for a good tropical place to go to for a winter vacation.

Loved the resorts near Negril Jamaica for the resort cleanliness, lovely lovely people who will bring you your favorite drink on the beach without you having to order on the second day, crystal clear water, lots of recreation free at the resort and the value. Went to Couples and want to go back every year, except for the time we get more daring and go to Hedonism. You’ll be offered ganha by the bus shuttle driver right off the bat. A couple years ago, I woulda picked Playa del Carmen or Cabo San Lucas, but I don’t feel safe anywhere in Mexico now. Hawaii is nice, but expensive. Awesomelly cheap is Buhket, Thailand where you can get massages for $2 and luxury full service massages for under $20.

From what temperature is considered coldwater and from what is considered tropical? Like from 20-25 or something..

What is the acceptable temperature for most coldwater fish and what is the one for tropical?

Do you know any fish which lives in the extremes? Like the goldfish tolerating freezing temp.

Coldwater fish–or what we refer to as coldwater fish in the aquarium trade, like the goldfish and white cloud minnows–are not true coldwater fish and are actually considered Temperate water fish. True coldwater fish, such as northern pike, will become stressed and die at temperatures above 60 degrees F. Many of the fish that live in the northern and far southern oceans are accustomed to functioning in very cold temperatures.

So for a true coldwater fish, 40 degrees F to 60 degrees F is usually typical.

Temperate water fish prefer temperatures in the mid 60s to low 70s, but can tolerate warmer temperatures and go into hibernation in the wintertime. Goldfish survive cold winter temperatures, but do not swim around or eat during this time. Temperate water fish can only survive so long in temperatures outside their natural range.

Tropical fish need water above 72 degrees F, with some exceptions (such as discus) that need their water in the mid 80 degree F range.

My mom’s friend wanted me to make an image of a cartoon girl at the beach with a beach bag on her in Photoshop. I really need help. Do i just draw and scan the picture, and trace in illustrator? Or is there an easier way?

Please and thanks!

An easier way is to draw directly onto Photoshop using a graphics tablet but each artist is different. Some find it easier to draw on paper and scan it in onto Photoshop.

If you’re scanning a drawing onto Photoshop, you could use Photoshop’s pen tool instead of Illustrator.

But, if you’re drawing a picture and your mom wants it scale-able without destroying the pixels, you should do it in Illustrator.

What you could also do is get some reference images online and patch it all up in Photoshop but I don’t recommend this because the artist/photographer who owns the photo might not allow you to use his work for commercial use (if you’re doing something for commercial use)

I’m 14 living in Queensland, Australia. I wanna leave home. I heard somewhere that if you run away from home and your the age of 13 or 14 the police can’t force you back home.

Probably the age of 16.

In addition, what is the maximum amount of persons in Queensland allowed to live in:
A double storey house?
A house with a family?
A house with people who do not know each other?

1. You must submit an application to the Queensland Department of Local Government and Planning (DLGP) Human Occupancy Assessment Unit (HOAU) on the required form, including photographs (verified by a Justice of the Peace) of each room, and exact measurements of room height, width, depth and breadth.

2. The HOAU will then make an appointment with the owner/occupier for a site visit (this takes anywhere between 2 weeks and 6 weeks).

3. After reviewing the application, assessing the property and taking independent measurements, they will give the applicant a detailed breakdown of the number of permissable occupants in each room of the house at any one time (this even includes the number of people who can use a bathroom at any given point e.g. when getting ready for work in the mornings). They will also issue a permit after a 14 day period of public advertising in the Queensland Government Gazette.

4. In some cases, where a home owner or occupier has previously breached the terms of a previous permit, the HOAU (or any local authority who has raised an objection to the granting of your permit) may install CCTV cameras in each room of the house to monitor your compliance with the permit. This in-room surveillance happens more often in Brisbane than in the smaller townships.

5. The applicant and each intended occupant of the property in question is also required to undergo a formal police check.

Its quite simple really.

I am looking into opening an indoor skydiving facility and im having trouble figuring out where to start. I need all the equipment and everything.

Start by looking online for what equipment you’ll need. Then buy a place first. Put the big tube in. And the equipment on some hooks, don’t get all fancy at first or you won’t have enough money.
