If Y = Sin(5X) / 2 - 2 * Cos(2X)
then as X -> 0, Y -> infinity.
If X = 0 then
Sin(5X) = Sin(0) = 0.
2 - 2Cos(2*0) = 2 - 2Cos(0) = 2 - 2(1) = 0. - Can't divide by zero!
Thus if X is almost 0, we have
Sin(5X) / 2 - 2Cos(~0) which is
Sin(5X) / 2 - 2*(~1) which is
Some number / Some other number < 1 and close to 0. This causes the whole expression to increase in value because you're dividing by a fraction.
Renguard is a wonderful initiative

Supporters of Proposition 8 will argue California does not discriminate against gays, as the current law allows them to get married - as long as they wed a partner of the opposite sex.
