» How not to miss the info in the viewfinder?
Hello all, I keep trying to train myself to look at the info in the viewfinder of my camera, but most of the time i shoot blindly - taking care of the composition and timing, but failing to notice the exposure info. Most of the time this is not a problem, as i shoot in priority modes, but if i leave the camera on Manual or forget to change the ISO - i've got a mess on my hands. I only find the attention capacity to notice the viewfinder info in situations where not much is changing within the frame, but if it is a demonstration or if i'm scrambling to get a shot, i completely neglect what the camera is telling me - my eyes don't look that way and my brain just blocks that info out. So, my question is, first - do you find yourself stru...... - 2010-02-07

I readed all the comics and novels.... Anakin Skywalker Rulez....I haven't seen much of star trek, so I'll have to say Star Wars.Anakin Skywalker Rulez.... Why? I hate Anakin. watch revenge of the sith. Btw STAR WARS for me too. I watched all six movies in 2 days a few days back. Previously i had watched only 1 completely and bits of others. Two things i want to mention: 1> i thought special effects in ep 4, 5, 6 would suck. but i was impressed by what i saw.

» The number you have reached is not in service. this is the telus mobility network.?
i tried calling my friend, and it didn't ring, just said what's in the title, being "the number you have reached is not in service. this is the telus mobility network." but that doesn't make sense because we were just texting like last night. so does anyone know what that means? and that would explain why she's not texting back right?Maybe between last night and today it broke or got disconnected. Usually that means that she had her phone disconnected. She might of forgot to pay her phone bill and the service turned off. Text her instead of calling her and tell her and ask her if she knows why it is doing that. Then you know if it is her phone, her calls, or just her texts!

Someone was impersonating me on friendster. He used my pictures, info, and entries that I had on my public blog to post deragatory things about me in his fake profile of me.

EDITATO] - --------- 2008-09-09 18:28 (1) INFLUENZA, PREVISTI 5-7 MILIONI DI CASI MILANO - [I]Una stagione influenzale intensa, con 5-7 milioni di casi, quella che ci aspetta fra la fine del 2008 e i primi mesi del 2009. Parola di Fabrizio Pregliasco, virologo dell'Università di Milano. "Dipenderà molto dall'intensità della stagione invernale - spiega Pregliasco -: se sarà un inverno freddo i casi di influenza saranno più numerosi. I primi compariranno a novembre, quando la temperatura rimarrà bassa per un tempo sufficientemente lungo". La novità di quest'anno è che i ceppi virali sono cambiati tutti e tre e ...... - 2010-02-07
» I have wicked insomnia?
Anything I can do to get some sleep? I don't want meds Try getting a constant source of fresh air while you sleep. I had sleep problems for about 15 years before I discovered by accident that it didn't happen if I slept outside on the deck. Now, I have a "fresh-air-device" (home-made) to produce a gentle breeze of fresh outside air on my face while I sleep. Works like a charm. If you have a secure patio, try sleeping on it for a night or two to see if it makes a difference.Try waking 30-45 minutes before dawn and meditate till the sun comes up. Nothing heavy, just calm your breathing, and make a conscious effort to listen to the sounds going on around you. Close your eyes or keep them open, it doesn't matter. In the ...... - 2010-02-07

Well I was going through some of my old photos today and found this photo I took last year during the summer. I remember I wasn't chasing. I took it front of my house.

» Why do the Atheists expect me to turn the other cheek to them?
The Atheists constantly accuse me of not displaying "Christian love" - which they evidently approve of - and whining about how "hateful" I am. Let me remind you that Jesus said the following: "I have not come to bring peace, but to bring a sword." Matt 10:34 Jesus WAS the first Crusader and believed in taking the fight to the enemy with each blow of the sword. That is why , in the face of a full-scale Atheist invasion of R&S, we should not cower...rather, we should wade into them and harry them at midships, firing our broadsides and making their blood run cold. Turning the other cheek is fine when EVERYONE behaves like that, it is not what we should do while we are under a relentless attack. So, are you willing to fight ...... - 2010-02-07
» Atheists, since you don't believe in absolute truth, where does your sense of morals and values come from?
Since no one is born with infinite knowledge, everything we believe in must be learned from somewhere, I was just wondering where you all get your sense of morals and values.Everything you encounter you take something from. There are valid teachings in the Bible, some very strong moral lessons. There are also strong moral lessons in the Tao te Ching, the Koran, the Analects of Confucius etc... a surrender to a specific deity, especially one that commands blind obedience is not necessary for moral behavior. Good question, provided it was honest and not designed to incite a derogatory response. But you are a Christian, and that would be un-Christ like right?That's actually not true. It's quite possible to have original ideas. That...... - 2010-02-07

» Cell Phone Headphones --- Need Super-Duper Hands Free Model
Hi There ! I sometimes work in a noisy place, and need cell phone headphones (2.5 mm jack) that completely cover *both* ears. I also need a boom microphone that is approximately 6" (from ear to tip). In other words, a microphone that goes directly in front of the mouth instead of halfway up the cheek. Essentially, I need the kind of headphones worn by airplane pilots in a noisy cockpit----only the headphones need to fit a 2.5 mm cell phone jack. A 5-star answer would be 3 models. Price is not a factor. All comments greatly appreciated. Thanks. ronI was too ambitious. A 5-star answer would be one model---not three. Thanks. ron P.S. I know what I want must exist somethere.

» 92 Toyota rebuilt 3vze- how can I test engine condition?
So I am about to travel over 300 miles to finally buy a truck I've wanted for 5 years now-- a 92 Toyota ext cab 4x4. This one has the 6cyl engine. 3vze haters, please keep your judgment to a minimum. We all want a 22RE. I get it. I acknowledge the 3vze had issues. The seller says this particular truck's engine was rebuilt on a factory recall. My question is-- How can I test the condition of the engine, or should i just trust that it was done right if he has the documentation showing that toyota rebuilt it (he says he has docs). Beyond sniffing around in the radiator and checking the dipstick and exhaust, is there some more quantitative test I should have a mechanic do, like leak down or compression test?

How do I lower my interest rate with Discover card, and are my rights being denied? I called and asked about my account and was told it was in good standing.

I then requested a statement explaining why I was denied, and instead got a Request for Lower Interest rate form. The form asks what my current income is, and what my desired interest rate would be.

» Is there any way of switching a 2003 chevy s10 4.3L v6 for a v8?
Either that or does anybody know of where to buy either a turbo or a supercharger kit for it?Dude... By a summit catalog !Don't see no reason why not, There is a manual available to purchase to tell you all the details on what needs to be changed/modified, I would recommend getting that to see if it's something to want to do. You will want a second car though while you are taking the s10 apart as it is slightly involved and you wont be driving it again for a few days or a few weeks depending upon your skill and amount of time you have to put into it. You can mount the engine forward (and put a cooling fan on the front of radiator or mount it further back (preferred) to get better traction, but then you have to pound the firewall i...... - 2010-02-07
» Can you get dry socket 4 days after your wisdom teeth is removed?
hi, just wondering if you can get dry socket 4 days after the removal of one of your wisdom teeth my dentist told me i could smoke 48 hours after the removal is that fine?Hmm... I've been told that you're supposed to wait a week or so before smoking. And it is possible to get dry socket four days after the removal. Dentists don't know exactly what causes a wisdom tooth dry socket. Wisdom tooth dry sockets seem to occur more with lower teeth than upper teeth and more with females rather than males. Dry sockets happen more often after difficult extractions. It may be that forceful pushing against the wall of the socket when the tooth is being removed cause the walls of the socket to become crushed. This prevents bleeding into t...... - 2010-02-07
» Royals Fans: How Royal are they?
I'm posting because there should be a Reading thread this year. Must say, I'm worried about the Reading team this season. Are they really going into the season without a single addition? Not even insurance at Keeper? I'd think we're okay up front, but what about in the back? Especially with injuries? Is Pards happy with the squad, I mean when he speaks to someone besides the team website. What are our prospects of staying up? I know last yea'rs squad liked to say they were more suited to a higher division than D2, but is there no money available? Is Majeski making broke?

» How not to miss the info in the viewfinder?
Hello all, I keep trying to train myself to look at the info in the viewfinder of my camera, but most of the time i shoot blindly - taking care of the composition and timing, but failing to notice the exposure info. Most of the time this is not a problem, as i shoot in priority modes, but if i leave the camera on Manual or forget to change the ISO - i've got a mess on my hands. I only find the attention capacity to notice the viewfinder info in situations where not much is changing within the frame, but if it is a demonstration or if i'm scrambling to get a shot, i completely neglect what the camera is telling me - my eyes don't look that way and my brain just blocks that info out. So, my question is, first - do you find yourself stru...... - 2010-02-07

» Why do the Atheists expect me to turn the other cheek to them?
The Atheists constantly accuse me of not displaying "Christian love" - which they evidently approve of - and whining about how "hateful" I am. Let me remind you that Jesus said the following: "I have not come to bring peace, but to bring a sword." Matt 10:34 Jesus WAS the first Crusader and believed in taking the fight to the enemy with each blow of the sword. That is why , in the face of a full-scale Atheist invasion of R&S, we should not cower...rather, we should wade into them and harry them at midships, firing our broadsides and making their blood run cold. Turning the other cheek is fine when EVERYONE behaves like that, it is not what we should do while we are under a relentless attack. So, are you willing to fight ...... - 2010-02-07
» Atheists, since you don't believe in absolute truth, where does your sense of morals and values come from?
Since no one is born with infinite knowledge, everything we believe in must be learned from somewhere, I was just wondering where you all get your sense of morals and values.Everything you encounter you take something from. There are valid teachings in the Bible, some very strong moral lessons. There are also strong moral lessons in the Tao te Ching, the Koran, the Analects of Confucius etc... a surrender to a specific deity, especially one that commands blind obedience is not necessary for moral behavior. Good question, provided it was honest and not designed to incite a derogatory response. But you are a Christian, and that would be un-Christ like right?That's actually not true. It's quite possible to have original ideas. That...... - 2010-02-07

So I am about to travel over 300 miles to finally buy a truck I've wanted for 5 years now-- a 92 Toyota ext cab 4x4. This one has the 6cyl engine. 3vze haters, please keep your judgment to a minimum. We all want a 22RE. I get it. I acknowledge the 3vze had issues. The seller says this particular truck's engine was rebuilt on a factory recall. My question is-- How can I test the condition of the engine, or should i just trust that it was done right if he has the documentation showing that toyota rebuilt it (he says he has docs).

» Program for Hebrew Library
I'm searching for a computer program for a Hebrew library. My father has a large hebrew library (+6000 title), and it's hard to keep track where they are etc. What I'm looking is, for a computer program that will make it easy to catalog them, and to keep them in a database. Since most Hebrew books do not have an ISBN (most are printed in Israel), it would be a hard work to key in all the information. Is there some place where I would be able to get 'at least some' of the book's information? See this http://www.collectorz.com/fsbook_features.php for an example how to grab information from different sources into the database. And of course, the program should work with Hebrew (book title, descriptions). ...... - 2010-02-07
» How do you dial out using a school telephone?
It depends how the school phone system is set up, most schools use a multi line "Phone LAN" kind of phone network, where the phones are connected to some sort if "computer" that routes the calls, so it usually depends on how they have that "computer" programmed I went through a public school up to 10th grade, then went to a vocational school for the final 2 (still a public school, but a trade school as well), at the public school, you would dial 9 to get out, and it was the same for every room, when I went to the vocational school, it was a privilege to have access to an outside line, so in the classrooms that did have the privilege, you would dial 9 like normal, but for the classrooms that didn't, you had to dial the front office a...... - 2010-02-07

do you like them and if you do what do you like about them. there music there looks or if do you hate the JONAS BROTHERS what do you hate about them if you are a guy and you have a girlfriend thats in love with the JONAS BROTHERS I hate them. They've ruined music as we know it, with every 1 out of 2 girls not loving them, but literally going CRAZY over them. They've ruined society, tastes in music, and have ruined pop culture as we know it.I dislike the Jonas Brothers VERY VERY MUCH. Girls are just in love with them because they think they are hot. Maybe they should actually listen to their voices!!!...... - 2010-02-07

» Is there any way of switching a 2003 chevy s10 4.3L v6 for a v8?
Either that or does anybody know of where to buy either a turbo or a supercharger kit for it?Dude... By a summit catalog !Don't see no reason why not, There is a manual available to purchase to tell you all the details on what needs to be changed/modified, I would recommend getting that to see if it's something to want to do. You will want a second car though while you are taking the s10 apart as it is slightly involved and you wont be driving it again for a few days or a few weeks depending upon your skill and amount of time you have to put into it. You can mount the engine forward (and put a cooling fan on the front of radiator or mount it further back (preferred) to get better traction, but then you have to pound the firewall i...... - 2010-02-07
» Can you get dry socket 4 days after your wisdom teeth is removed?
hi, just wondering if you can get dry socket 4 days after the removal of one of your wisdom teeth my dentist told me i could smoke 48 hours after the removal is that fine?Hmm... I've been told that you're supposed to wait a week or so before smoking. And it is possible to get dry socket four days after the removal. Dentists don't know exactly what causes a wisdom tooth dry socket. Wisdom tooth dry sockets seem to occur more with lower teeth than upper teeth and more with females rather than males. Dry sockets happen more often after difficult extractions. It may be that forceful pushing against the wall of the socket when the tooth is being removed cause the walls of the socket to become crushed. This prevents bleeding into t...... - 2010-02-07
» Royals Fans: How Royal are they?
I'm posting because there should be a Reading thread this year. Must say, I'm worried about the Reading team this season. Are they really going into the season without a single addition? Not even insurance at Keeper? I'd think we're okay up front, but what about in the back? Especially with injuries? Is Pards happy with the squad, I mean when he speaks to someone besides the team website. What are our prospects of staying up? I know last yea'rs squad liked to say they were more suited to a higher division than D2, but is there no money available? Is Majeski making broke? I wouldn't rate our chances too high with an unchanged roster. Tell me I'm wrong. No info here, just questions. Come on you Rs, help me out.Game one answered my own ques...... - 2010-02-07

A long, long time ago I saw a movie where a giant clay statue came to life. Can anyone tell me the name of the movie?
