» Why does my new mattress leave me sleeping in a pool of sweat?
It's really yukky. It never happened with my old mattress but now guaranteed I wake up in the night in a pool of sweat, stuck to my duvet.

» Browse Video Bookmarks?
Is there a way to browse all video bookmarks? The only way I know of to view video bookmarks is to browse to a given file, play it, bring up the OSD, and look at the bookmarks for that file only. I want to know if all video bookmarks can be viewed on one screen. If this is possible, is there a way to make a shortcut to this on the home screen?No, you can't. The best you can do is view watched files versus unwatched files if you use the video database feature.No, you can't.

» Redirecting "My Documents" folder
The other day, I was reading a book on XP Registry when I came across this tweak and felt like sharing it with you guys. I am sure, many would agree, that it is a really useful tweak. Redirecting My Documents to a non-system drive is a very logical choice, because in the event of system crashes or re-installation of OS, data in My Documents folder won’t be lost forever. In fact I am yet to come across someone who has been using computer for a very long time, but never had to face the trauma of a system crash or never needed a reinstallation of O/S for whatever reasons. So you need to back up your data either on a non-system drive or a cd-rw. For notebook users, specially those old ones, like mine, space is something to die for. Redirec...... - 2009-07-04
» Leopold Stokowski's All-American Youth Orchestra
How many women were in the 1940 All-American Youth Orchestra?marysue -- The enormous link below leads to a Google-cached page that includes two photographs of the All-American Youth Orchestra, one taken in 1940 and one taken in 1941. In the 1940 photograph they are in a formal dress rehearsal, so it is possible to look carefully at the photo and make a very good estimate of the number of young women in the orchestra at that time -- I see six. The 1941 is a little harder to estimate from since the players are in casual dress, but the number of women that are definitely discernible (to me) is nine.

Chikungunya virus is normally little cause for concern, as it has not been fatal and large outbreaks are rare.

» Ip banning problem and usertitle problem
Hi, I have 2 annoying little problems i can't get fixed. 1: I have banned several people by IP. Every now and then i get an email from a new user who can't post because their ip is banned. When i look it up their ip is nowhere to be found in the banned ip list. I actually had 3 mails like that just this past week. 2: In the censored word list i had the word Admin to prevent people use it as their usertitle. Later i added forced usertitles...you know per post count..so new users got the title Admin's Slave. This showed up as *****'s Slave. So i deleted the word admin from the censored words list and rebuilt the usertitles but no matter what i do the ***** won't go away :cool: I'm problably forgetting something small.

Hey everyone! I've decided it's about time that I upgrade my camera to meet my new needs for photography. I've got a Kodak DX6490, 10x optical zoom, 4.0 Megapixel digital camera. You can look at the specs here.

» People in Mexico are conservative Christians. Why don't American conservatives want to let more of them in?
I don't believe your statement to be true. On what do you base that assertion? Let's suppose it's true...there are many social conservatives who are ridiculously liberal when it comes to fiscal matters. If the government of a prosperous nation right next door displays a proclivity for not enforcing its borders and a relaxed attitude towards hiring illegals for under the table wages at slave-ish levels...then you will, in fact, tempt those fiscal liberal/social conservative Christian people into this country for a life that, while better than what's in Mexico, is substandard to even poverty levels as defined by our own government. It's a vicious cycle that needs, in Wall Street terms, a market correction. Pe...... - 2009-07-04

» What are thyroid? and does it hurt to take a blood test at the hospital?
my doctor said i might have thyroids so have said i have to take a blood test,so i was just wondering these things. the thyroid gland makes hormones that tells your metabolism what level to be at. If you have an underactive thyroid then you put on weight, get greasy skin and hair, can get depressed and lots of other possible symptoms. If you have an overactive thyroid then you can get anxious, lose weight, feel hot all the time and lots of other things as well. The blood test is just having a needle put in your arm to get the blood out. Its not a massive needle it just feels like a little scratch. You absolutely have a thyroid. You would be dead if you did not. What your doctor is suggesting is that you might have some kind of thyroid d...... - 2009-07-04
» Enthalpy of Formation ICl need help, thanks :)?
Given the following data, evaluate the standard enthalpy of formation of ICl (g). Cl2 (g) → 2 Cl (g) ΔH° = 242.0 kJ mol -1 I2 (g) → 2 I (g) ΔH° = 151.0 kJ mol -1 ICl (g) → Cl (g) + I (g) ΔH° = 211.2 kJ mol -1 Sublimation of I2 ΔH°= 63.7 kJ mol -1 The formation reaction we need is: 1/2 Cl2(g) + 1/2 I2(s) ==> ICl(g) Use Hess's Law to combine the given reactions to give the one I just typed. (1) Cl2 (g) → 2 Cl (g) ΔH° = 242.0 kJ/mol (2) I2 (g) → 2 I (g) ΔH° = 151.0 kJ/mol (3) ICl (g) → Cl (g) + I (g) ΔH° = 211.2 kJ/mol A fourth equation is the sublimation of I2: (4) I2(s) => I2(g) dH = 63.7 kJ We need 1/2 mole of Cl2 and 1/2 mole of I2 on the left, so take 1/2 of reactions ...... - 2009-07-04

Our personalities are the total opposite from each other, but i can't get rid of this feeling. All the time I wish i could hold her tight and kiss her. We could never work as a couple but still she's the most fantastic, beautiful person I know It's confusing. What to do? Difference is something that attracts people. It is normal.

It is face wax and its not coming off of the marble surface? It's already dry so how do i get it off?This method works for a lot of surfaces covered in wax... Take a dish towel (preferably one you no longer care to use) and place it over the wax. With a HOT iron in steam mode, go over the spot on the towel under which the wax is. Move the towel every pass to keep from getting the wax the towel absorbed back onto the marble. This works really great for carpets, too.with real marble you can use a razor blad to scrape it off, then a little heat to wipe off the residueRemove most of it with a razor blade or paint scraper. Then use a hand held hair dryer to apply heat and wipe it off with a paper towel. Put an ice cube on it to get i...... - 2009-07-04

Bacitracin is tried and true, it's a single antibiotic, and Aquaphor is what I'd recommend first. A&D is good, Lubiderm is good, (after the first four days or so) or the unscented skin lotion of your choice. Whatever you choose, use a reeeal thin coating, so it can breathe.
