» Please tell me the most effective diet, and which is easy to keep....?
Can you help me with a new diet, I have tried a few but they were not very useful. Please let me know... thanksThe things you need to look at when choosing a diet are mainly that you are getting enough to eat (it is not a starvation diet), the food portions are reasonable and you aren't eating the same things over and over again (variety). Once those things are in place, then the plan is good. Diets that cut out things (like carbs) are really bad for you in the long run. The diet you choose should be more of a life style change, not a temporary "fix".High protein, low carb, very low fat, lots of fruits, veggies and water. Basically a diabetic diet. It's easy to maintain the weight loss once you find foods that you love and cook...... - 2009-07-03

» Is there a war going on in the stock market?
Have domestic or foreign terrorists taken control of financial vehicles and are crashing them into our financial institutions? Or is it just plain good old American greed?The following paragraph is taken from the article on Forex and Stock market behavior in http://www.onlinesalesplus.com. The article was written a few months before the current events. It kind of answers your question: Anyone who really follows these markets knows that the underlying prices fluctuate, often violently, due to changes, and equally effectively, due to rumors about these changes in various factors. These factors include not only the company and sector-specific conditions, but also economic and geopolitical as well as the general market environment. Thus a...... - 2009-07-03
» Will he survive this brain injury?
Okay I'll make it short. Yesterday morning a friend of mine wrecked an ATV and was in critical condition and was quickly rescued by flight for life. He had swelling in his brain, and this morning he had a stroke. After his surgery from the stroke the pressure in his brain went from 49 to 15 (I don't know how pressure in the brain is measured.) He was injured on the left side of his head and was able to move his right hand. Just tell me the truth about y friends near future and what he may have to go through.Only time will tell. It is too early to determine what will be permanent or if he will develop a secondary infection. The next couple of days will be critical. Say your prayers and be by his side.This is truly a hard one to ans...... - 2009-07-03

We call ourselves "The Onto" and deal with everything from relationship issues to breakups to matchmaking even guiding a suitable line of revenge to those who feel they have been wronged.

» Outline Numbering Frustration
I would like to use muti-level outline numbering with both the built-in heading styles and some user-defined styles. i.e., 1 Heading 1 2 Heading 1 2.1 Heading 2 2.2 User-defined style 2 2.2.1 Heading 3 2.2.2 User-defined style 3 etc.. I defined one pane of the outline numbering styles to link to the heading x styles, and another to link to my user-defined styles. Unfortunately, I end up with the numbering resetti ng every time I change from a Heading style to a User-Defined style. i.e., 1 Heading 1 2 Heading 1 2.1 Heading 2 1.1 User-defined style 2 1.1.1 Heading 3 1.1.1 User-defined style 3 etc..

You get to meet some new and interesting people. And perhaps find some new partners to golf with.Yes you can but honestly if you have to ask that question then I would just go to the driving range for some much needed practice!

Used a christmas gift for the first time when I went down to Louisville Kentucky this past wednesday. I was skeptical of its use until I got to experience it, a buddy of mine told me that the learning curve was very small (I need this cuz I'm dumb) and once you figure it out, you'll love it. His words rang true, the setup through the FM transmitter was perfect. The voice was dangerously accurate with directions and it almost felt surreal in how well it mapped locations.

If Bella doesn't turn into a vampire in Breaking Dawn I will be so frustrated if we have to wait until next year for the next one! It's hard enough having to wait a few months.. let alone a year.

» Know any online FREE hard flute pieces?
Flight of the bumblebee would be much appreciated. Though any other hard piece would do. The best bargain - close to free - is a CD-ROM called Ultimate Solos. www.cdsheetmusic.com. 2oo solos and their accompaniments, in PDF - no audio. Old-fashioned editions - lots of markings - but a real steal at the price. You will find MANY solos that suit you. Under $20. Most free things are garbage - little-kid or wannabee stuff. There are sites that have legitimate classical music for free, often in MIDI format, and you must run it thru a notation program like Sibelius - which, factoring in the cost of the program, makes this NOT free, right?

» What is the problem/solution with Bayern Munich?
Guys, let's keep this simple. It does not seem as complex as it really is. The problem is that Bayern is not playing teamwork right now. Too many superstars, and too much expectation from each superstar. The team is not playing TOGETHER enough! That's the problem. The solution is simple. Change the tactics (maybe go as far as changing the coach). That's all. Bayern is now very predictable in Europe, and to lose a game against Lyon in Munich is a BIG problem. Bayern needs to keep it simple and each 'superstar' needs to contribute 100%. If Ballack is having an off-day and not contributing enough, take him out. If Makaay scores one goal and relaxes, take him off. Keep the pressure ON, and you'll see results! Bayern doesn't have to wait to ...... - 2009-07-03

» Which sport was officially created first, American Football or soccer?
I wonder whose lack of creativity caused two of the most popular sports on Earth to have the same name. Doesnâ ™t it make more sense to call the sport played with oneâ ™s feet â œfootballâ ? Please donâ ™t tell me that football is called that because players kick the ball to start a game or to make a field goal. The use of feet is minimal in both cases. The fact that running is done with your feet, and players must run in possession of the ball in order to â œtouch downâ is not enough to call it â œfootballâ over soccer either. Baseball and basketball take running with a ball too, and they have their own names. I personally think that there is no sport that deserves to be called football more than soccer does, because no other sport ...... - 2009-07-03

i just upgraded from a nvidia 6800le agp and it worked fineMost likely, you've either not effectively uninstalled the Nvidia drivers, or are using old drivers for your Radeon. Check out Guru3d and get Driver Cleaner (it's an easy google search) and make sure you've eliminated those Nvidia drivers and go to ATI's website to get the latest Catalyst Control Center along with the newest drivers for your card (get the full package, includes CCC and drivers), should fix your problem, unless you have a hardware or power supply issue. :)...... - 2009-07-03

Hello! We are greatly interested in switching from our phpBB to your vBulletin. I have a few questions however about your forums. 1. We currently have a database of over 900,000 players and many posts throughout our 3 games. Would we be able to transfer all of our users ID's and passwords to vBulletin? 2.

I've tried upgrading MySQL on my server via cpanel from 4.1.x to 5.0.x. However, the installation failed and now MySQL has bit the dust. After talking with the hosting company, they're response is as follows: Dear Customer, Your installation of MYSQL 5.0.27 does not appear to have been complete, as it does not have records pointing to the areas it should, as well as it missing a few basic configuration files. My recommendation is to backup your files, remove both mysql 4.1.21, and mysql 5.0.27 and re-install mysql 5.0.27 to see if for some reason installing one over the top of the other cause the conflict in file paths I see when I try to start the services.

Used a christmas gift for the first time when I went down to Louisville Kentucky this past wednesday. I was skeptical of its use until I got to experience it, a buddy of mine told me that the learning curve was very small (I need this cuz I'm dumb) and once you figure it out, you'll love it. His words rang true, the setup through the FM transmitter was perfect. The voice was dangerously accurate with directions and it almost felt surreal in how well it mapped locations. Hitting the "Go Home" button reverses your steps without worry as well. Just curious since this device has been around for awhile if anyone else has been using them consistently.

Is there a product available that will allow me to refinish/re-enamel a worn porcelain sink?

Flight of the bumblebee would be much appreciated. Though any other hard piece would do. The best bargain - close to free - is a CD-ROM called Ultimate Solos. www.cdsheetmusic.com. 2oo solos and their accompaniments, in PDF - no audio. Old-fashioned editions - lots of markings - but a real steal at the price. You will find MANY solos that suit you. Under $20. Most free things are garbage - little-kid or wannabee stuff. There are sites that have legitimate classical music for free, often in MIDI format, and you must run it thru a notation program like Sibelius - which, factoring in the cost of the program, makes this NOT free, right?

» What is the problem/solution with Bayern Munich?
Guys, let's keep this simple. It does not seem as complex as it really is. The problem is that Bayern is not playing teamwork right now. Too many superstars, and too much expectation from each superstar. The team is not playing TOGETHER enough! That's the problem. The solution is simple. Change the tactics (maybe go as far as changing the coach). That's all. Bayern is now very predictable in Europe, and to lose a game against Lyon in Munich is a BIG problem. Bayern needs to keep it simple and each 'superstar' needs to contribute 100%. If Ballack is having an off-day and not contributing enough, take him out. If Makaay scores one goal and relaxes, take him off. Keep the pressure ON, and you'll see results! Bayern doesn't have to wait to ...... - 2009-07-03

I wonder whose lack of creativity caused two of the most popular sports on Earth to have the same name. Doesnâ ™t it make more sense to call the sport played with oneâ ™s feet â œfootballâ ? Please donâ ™t tell me that football is called that because players kick the ball to start a game or to make a field goal. The use of feet is minimal in both cases. The fact that running is done with your feet, and players must run in possession of the ball in order to â œtouch downâ is not enough to call it â œfootballâ over soccer either. Baseball and basketball take running with a ball too, and they have their own names.

» Appropriate language at restaurants
I've heard this phrase a million times but have always forgotten to look into it further. You go to a resaurant and place your order, the waitress says something like uˆÈã‚Å‹X‚µ‚¢‚Å‚µ‚傤‚©v. Is that right? I assume it means something like "would that be all?" or literally "this much is good?". So what are some possible responses to this, apart from ‚Í‚¢. Or, what should you say if the waitress is waiting for your next order but you're done, i.e. "that's all thanks"?I just say "はい," or "はい、以上です" usually, nothing more is required. If you're done ordering and the server doesn't notice, you can just say "(それ)以上です" I'm interested to s...... - 2009-07-03

» What's this I hear about Honda quitting F1?
I hope this is just a rumour! Just as things were looking up for Button, they drop this bombshell! It appears that they can't afford to keep ploughing the money in, and rather then cut back they're pulling out altogether! Thoughts/reactions?Yeah it's true.... all becasue of the global financial crisis and F1 isn't exactly cheap. Honda can't support the racing team and have withdrawn,leaving JB and Senna's future hanging in the balance. They are trying to look for a buyer though... So in a way, Max was right.

» a new forum?
Hello, I hope there will be a new forum created for the discussion of established works from past master photographers. When vonnagy opened a thread in the critique forum a while ago on a photo shot by Lee Friedlander, I found it enlightening to see. The work seemed to generate considerable interest among other members as well. The other thing that has been constantly on my mind is the ban imposed on a member called grooski. Under the thread I once opened, he said something that was not entirely polite. As I see it, he was not really personally against anyone, maybe the mediocrity of my photo just left him impatient. He got punished after a burst of "screw you all". I felt sorry for the mess. Now that more than one month has elapsed ...... - 2009-07-03

» Should the Religion & Spirituality Section be divided into further sections?
I remember AskJeeves.com in around 2000 (before they closed it) had a ask question and get answers, similar to Y&A. They divided it into sections - Western religions (Christianity, Catholicism, etc.), Eastern (Buddhism, Hinduism, Confucianism, etc.), other sections, and a section for "others [not listed before]". They didn't have the onslaught of the mocking and pseudo-questions (insults disguised as questions) we have here in Y&A. This allows people to find questions of their own religion more easily, rather than all the pluarity of religions being bunched together in one big stack. And possibly, I'm not asserting this as a fact, the atheists who make fun (not all atheists make fun, the respectful ones won''t be here d...... - 2009-07-03
» How can I clean 'grime' off a 48"X5" Copper Hood above a Cook-Top Range and restore to original Copper?
I am able to scratch off some of the collected cooking 'grime' but not the entire area. The original Copper shows through in the cleaned areas. What can I apply to scratch/wipe all of it to clean and restore?mixture of baking soda and lemonNever Dull is a product that will restore copper to a chrome-like shine. They use it in the Navy to polish brass fittings on board ships. It is available at any hardware or auto parts store. As far as the grime, just good ol 409 and elbow action.

» A dream about food from another world and an object that kept the world good?
It was like I knew people from Mars and I wanted to buy food from there. After being there I saw markets of food from there. It seemed to be perfectly nutritious and a taste that i liked. The astrologers (I believe) refer to Mars as conflict. It seemed to me to be peaceful and spiritual. This object had 7 pieces that had to be collected and put together. I never seen what the world would be without 1 and especially 7. 1 was taken away and the world became polluted, like everything was covered in dark gray grime. People talked in a rude and unexpressive way. I saw buildings like churches that were small and thought 'who could fit in there?' .

Money borrowed for one year carries interest of 5.o, money borrowed two years is 6.o, and money borrowed for two years carries an interest rate of 7.0 per year. First year costs are $2,000,000 and expect no additional revenue. In the second year, costs will be $5,000,000 but have 30 percent chance of generating $10,000,000 in additional revenue, a 20 percent chance of generating $6,000,000 in additional revenue, and a fifty percent chance of not being to sell anything because your contractor is behind schedule. In the final year, you have a fifty percent chance of $2,000,000 in additional costs (The contractor is a friend of your boss and you can't sue for breach of contract). and a fifty percent chance that you finished paying the bill...... - 2009-07-03

A man pushes a 16 kg lawn mower at a constant speed with a force F = 90 N directed along the handle, which is at an angle of 45 to the horizontal (see below). Calculate: a.the horizontal retarding force on the mower; b.the normal force exerted vertically upward on the mower by the ground; and c.the force the man must exert on the lawn mower to accelerate it from rest to 1.5 ms-1 in 2.5 seconds. Assume the same retarding force.a) retarding force is the same as the horizontal force exerted by the man, that is 90/sqrt(2) N. 64 N b) the weight of the mower (16kg * 9.8 N/kg) plus the vertical force exerted by the man, which is 90/sqrt(2) N. 220 N c) net force is mass*acceleration. acceleration = 1.5/2.5 m/s^2 = .6 m/s^2,...... - 2009-07-03

I was conscious of the problem and that's why I paid so much for Francis Jeffers." Finally, a somewhat rational explanation!this is a tad off topic, but i noticed something related to this during the world cup. sure, they advanced out of the 'group of death' and only went down to the eventual and five-time champions, but the english team just lacked any real sense of identity. maybe that's related to development, which leads to that U-20 score that wenger referenced. the premiereship notwithstanding, there's just nothing really special about the english game ...... - 2009-07-03
