» What type of music made up your high school years?

Just wondering. Every time I hear the pixies, I'm right back there sitting in the lunch room picking at check mix. What bands put you back into your high school years?Well, I'm still in high school, but METAL METAL METAL. And Gogol Bordello. =DI simply love to hear one say a song takes them back to a certain and particular place in their life. Music should do that EXACT thing for all of us. I graduated high school in 1974. Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, David Bowie, Ted Nugent, Frank Zappa and The Who were just a few of the musicians my peers and I fell in love with and listened to - often. These days when I hear an old Zeppelin or Bowie song, I sing out loud and sometimes go back to those days. Music has always been a g...... - 2009-07-03

» Canon EF 17-40mm f/4L USM review!!!

wanted to know if this lens is worth getting from some people who own it? i do a lot of landscape photography and need something thats durable and wide enough for lots of shots. also looked at the tokina 12-24? any feedback? garrenteei do happily use it for landscape and architecture, on a 35mm camera though. it is not my sharpest L-glass wide open, but stepped down a bit it is great. Not my sturdiest L either, but for the relatively low price (for an L lens) it is fairly well built. edit: as for durability: I use it outdoors, also on hiking expeditions for several days where it spends nights with me in the tent. I use a UV filter though, since there is a little gap between the tube and the front element which could draw dust while...... - 2009-07-03

Does this mean that everytime a person calls YOU, you will not be charged? thanks for the clarification.thatmeans that it is free when someone calls you no matter who it is but if you make a call it is not free.so when someone calls you you can talk for as long as you want because it is free.you can also dial a number and call someone and tell that person to call you right back so you wont have to get charged.basically just have people to call you.Nooo it means you don't get charged for people calling you.

» How to erasers (rubbers, scratchers, la gomma etc.) work?

How do they erase stuff?They rub a layer of paper off. That's why you shouldn't clean your erasers on paper since all you're doing is just putting paper onto the eraser. Use the carpet or cotton - that forces the eraser to shed a layer of itself which is what you want. Mmhmm. This is dinner conversation at my family. And you wonder why my sanity levels are not stable...They rub off the upper layer of the paper, the one stuff is written on.

Hi All, I've been playing with my Canon 300D for a few months now, having moved on from an old Canon Powershot, and an older Olympus digital before that, so I've been digital for 5 years.

After researching for some time, I began to lean towards purchasing the Nikon d300 over the Canon 40D.

» Life Insurance Commissions as Gross Income

My friend is an insurance agent who receives a commission on each policy he sells. During the year, he purchased a policy on his own life, naming his wife as the beneficiary. He did not report the commission on the policy as gross income because he considered the commission a reduction in his cost for the life insurance. An IRS agent has challenged the exclusion. Who is correct and what IRS code or former rulings can help us out?Was his own life insurance policy necessitated by his business? Seems unlikely - and then he probably could take the premiums as a business expense. Unfortunately, it seems to me that he should have asked the company forego paying him the commission and to adjust the calculation of his premiums, reducing them to r...... - 2009-07-03

» Did faulty fluid fill valve cause hidden leak?

Hello, There was a leak in the apartment beneath mine. The building engineer came into my apartment and saw that all surfaces in my bathroom were dry, and there was no sound of water flowing into my toilet. Days later I was informed that the building manager repaired my toiled while I was at work after determining that a faulty fill valve caused the leak. She says that the leak was inside the toilet, so I might have overlooked the problem when I looked at the toilet. This seems strange to me. The fill valve regulates the flow of water into the tank. If it was faulty it might cause the tank to overfill and pour onto the floor (which was clearly not the case). I don't see how it would cause a leak inside the toilet. Also I would have exp...... - 2009-07-03

See the source web site for the best information. Here is an excerpt; The mass of the Earth is approximately 5.98×1024 kg.

Due to mass segregation, the core region is believed to be primarily composed of iron (88.8%), with smaller amounts of nickel (5.8%), sulfur (4.5%), and less than 1% trace elements.[46] The geochemist F.

» Advice on Hard Drive

Hello! I've got XBMC running on my XBOX (great software, guys!) and I'm wanting to add storage for movies and music. I'm not sure if it's possible to stream video through my wireless LAN (my Xbox is connected through an ethernet bridge) without having it hang a bit (my router is on the ground floor, Xbox on second). What are some of your experiences with using external storage? Am I better off just getting a bigger internal drive for my Xbox? Any advice is appreciated. Thanks! THTWireless is not the best in my experence.. I sacked it in favor of good'ol hard cabled 100mbps ethernet but thats not to say it doesnt work.. it does... just not the quickest.. mate of mine uses 54mbps WLAN and he's happy...

» "In the Automobile" pop song from the early 80's?

I'm looking for title/group/album/publisher of a song I heard once on the radio somewhere between 1979 and 1985 or so. The only part of the lyrics I recall is along the lines of "We've got it realing, rocking; we've got it moving, grooving, in the automobile." I have a vague notion that the group was European; perhaps some of the lyrics were not in english (german, maybe?). The title could well have been "In the Automobile". I certainly never heard it again; surely it didn't make the charts in the US, but it really moved.Doctorf: I am not a Google Answers researcher. But your question interested me. After reading your post, the first song that came to mind was, "Love Shack", by the B-52's. Lyrics from that song...... - 2009-07-03

"Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it." page 284 of the Dover edition of Reason in Common Sense http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/amex/influenza/maps/images/map.gif The onset of illness for those battling the flu of 1918 was quite sudden. In a matter of mere hours, a person could go from strapping good health to being so enfeebled they could not walk. Victims complained of general weakness and severe aches in their muscles, backs, joints, and heads. Often enduring fevers that could reach 105 degrees, the sick fell prey to wild bouts of delirium. Innocent objects--pieces of furniture, wallpaper, lamps--would adopt wicked manifestations in the minds of those consumed by fever. When the fevers finally broke, many victims ...... - 2009-07-03

I get that you see religion as very harmful, but does that mean it isn´t worth studying? Criminology and psychiatry, dodgy though they may be, are academic studies of important subjects. For you, is it enough just to dismiss religion, or is it important to analyse it as a problem or an interesting social phenomenon? Cancer can be interesting after all, so why not religion? For any religious people reading this, i´m not personally opposed to it, just interested in opinions, so please don´t go off on one.Who says none of us enjoy studying religions?

» How painful is getting a tattoo on the bottom of your foot?

iGood luck finding an artist willing to tattoo there. It's pretty difficult to heal and usually (if not always) ends up fading pretty fast. But none of us can tell you how painful it is. The only way you can find out is by getting it done. Everyone's level of tolerance to pain is different.I can't imagine that it would hurt that much. If you think about it, the skin there is thicker (well, except for maybe the arch) and since it gets touched frequently, it's used to feeling all sorts of sensations. If you're ticklish on your feet, though, you may experience that annoying kind of pain that comes with not being able to relieve the tickle. I would add that if you get the tattoo near a bony area (like close to th...... - 2009-07-03

(There are real "Christmas tree plantations" for this purpose). And we only set up the tree on Christmas Eve.
