» Even when I set MSN messenger to save my histroy, it doesn't do a portion of it?I had a stride of inspiration last night and completley just splurged out ideas to my idea on MSN with my editor. I wrote down this long story for her to read through and I have to say, it was one of the very few storeis that I enjoyed. I gave her what I would think up randomly and some time between midnight and one in the morning, my battery died and my whole comptuer shut down. I have MSN messenger to save the history of what my conversatoins. The funny thing is, when I went to reread the ideas and what I actualy wrote the night previous, MSN didn't save my messages. It saved the one I had earlier with her before I exited out the window by accident. The time slot runs from 9:45 to 9:46 when I signed on and accidentally ex...... - 2008-12-20
» What will the next version of flash be like?
Hey, What will the next version of flash be like? Flash mx2005 or flash 9? And i think that flash should have a built in 3d editor like swift 3d, but in flash! That would be great! :A+:Next will be Flash 9. The only difference that I know of so far is the introduction of AS3.and there will be no 3dWhats AS3?"AS3" is ActionScript version 3. It will be similar to AS 2.0 but compile to it's own bytecode rather than just being a wrapper for Actionscript 1.0 with a different approach to the object orientation part. http://labs.macromedia.com/wiki/index.php/ActionScript_3 /MirandirOk.

This is Part One of five similar requests. Each request asks the same five questions. I offer to pay $10 for each answer, or $50 for all answers to each Part. Answers need not be completely on target, but should be close enough to use in my report. The questions have to do primarily with the retail sales of ?furniture??that is B2C. However B2B sales would also be interesting. I am looking for: 1. The number of furniture retailers in the US, and any other larger geographic area, e.g., Europe, Australia. 2.

I'm tired of listening to the same old stuff. I have very picky tastes, though. Not interested in any songs about screwed up lives (i.e. Eminem, emo, etc.) No whiny country, unless it's from the good old group (Loretta Lynn, George Jones, Johnny Cash, etc.), absolutely no rock and roll, no 80s crap, no rap, no heavy metal, no Kelly Clarkston/Britney Spears types... I guess if that leaves anything, I'm willing to take the suggestions. I really like people such as Enya, Yanni, classical like Beethoven, some country (if it's a good song and not whiny).

I bought a bunch of shows on The Playstation network and I'm wondering if I can transfer them to a zip drive so I can put them on my computer. Any idea?If you plug an external hard drive into your ps3 it will recognise it almost instantly, then go to your show(s), press triangle, and you'll get a series of options - one of those should let you transfer it to the hard drive, and then you just need to see if your camputer has the right codecs. if not, get them (likely for free) and it should work.Yes you can.

My brake pads are near end of life and plan to replace them. The dealer is quoting $1095 to replace front and rear brake pads. Do I have cheaper alternatives? I live in East Lansing, Michigan, US.Double check that quote- I think the dealer is also charging you for rotors as well. In the case of Audi, and other European and most domestics, the rotors cannot be turned. What you can do is this, and I did it with my A4. Go onto Autozone, Checkers, O'Reilly's, website, or any other parts store. Price out pads and rotors. They usually have good, better, and best. Next, contact an independent shop that does brakes, and ask them how much would they charge to install them. I spent $283 for pads and rotors, and $200 to have them insta...... - 2008-12-20

I am going to start using the ready mix. I know I can keep it on ice when going places, but I don't think you can give it to babies cold. So how do you warm them. Powder formula is so eay but my baby seems to like the other better.. Any suggestions. You can give it to a baby cold. As long as your baby will drink it at a cooler temperature, it is fine. It won't cause any problems. One option you have to warm it is to hold the bottle between your under arm and your body, or between your legs. This way you don't have to take any extra heating paraphernalia, and you're able to heat the bottle to almost body temp if you mix it up with enough time.

I'm from the UK, I just saw on the net that USA McDonalds do some kind of Mega Happy Meal... whats the difference between normal size and a mega?

The regular happy meals have either a hamburger, cheeseburger, or 4 piece nugget, and come with a child size (12 oz.) drink.

What flavourings, or do you just use salt, pepper and butter and baste it?I just follow the instructions off of this site..... http://1227.comI'm glad you asked. I searched my entire house today for a magazine with a turkey recipe from a few years ago. I saved it specifically for that & couldn't find it. I ended up actually finding it online & I was SO happy because it was seriously the BEST EVER. And I had no idea that it was Tom Colicchio's recipe. You know the Top Chef host? Anyway, it uses herbs (rosemary, sage, thyme) chopped & mixed with butter. You put the mixture under the skin of the turkey & it really gets absorbed & is SO moist. Plus you put large fresh sprigs inside the cavity. His technique for startin...... - 2008-12-20

Only if your Home theater system has a digital audio input and it actually matches the BD digital audio output (coax to coax or optical to optical). Then you connect it and you set it to AUX input. If the HTC has only a stereo input, you can still connect it, but you will only get stereo or virtual surround.Sure! The instructions should tell you everything that you need to know!

help!Hi, LaToya, this is the fastest and most effective weight loss I know. 1) Go on the 5-4-3-2-1 diet http://www.easy-weightloss-tips.com/5-4-... It works really well, but choose healthy foods to eat (lean protein, veggies, fruits, whole-grains, low-fat dairy, heart-healthy oils). You don't want your metabolism to get sluggish because that slows weight loss. 2) Give up all sweet drinks (even diet soda) and drink mostly water 3) Give up all extra sodium (don't salt your food and don't eat salty food) 4) Give up sugar (this is easy after the first three days) 5) Be active 30-60 minutes a day (the more the better for your metabolism and for burning calories) If you stick to it, 5 pounds in a week is very doable!...... - 2008-12-20
