Will I be accepted into Brown after my 4 years in the military?

Many US colleges would love to have you but the Ivies such as Brown require extremely high grades from high school and probably would not consider you. As soon as you finish the military take the SAT and you will have a better idea of what schools you can get into. Good luck in the military!

Could i possibly be a gay?

Horse deal gone bad, your advice?

My husband went to look at a colt last weekend. We are not new to horses. He gave the seller a 50% deposit along with a month's board as our truck is currently in the shop so we would not be able to take him home immediately. The seller cashed both checks. Today she called to say that the colt had to be gone by Sunday as she was going on vacation. We told her that there was no way we could get him this weekend and as far as we were concerned we had until 20th July to collect him. She is now saying that she is keeping our money and will refund it if she can get him sold to someone else soon, but if not she'll consider it part of her expenses for feeding him in the meantime!! What do we do?

The time period for NJ inspection ran out for my car. How much will my fine be when I go back?

My car initially failed for emissions. At the time I didn't have the money to get it fixed. I'm getting it fixed now but the one month grace period has passed by. It was February. How much will they charge me when I go back to get it inspected?

Buying bike from USA to India?

Yamaha is NOT a bicycle. Ask again over in the MOTORCYCLE section. Not the cycling section - as in bicycles.

Car's front wheels squeaking?

Go to your nearest auto parts store, and ask for a can of Anti-Squeak. Then, spray it over the front of your car - DO NOT MISS ANYWHERE. Leave it for 24 hours, and the squeak should be gone.

New beauty school graduate advice?

Hi, I've just graduated beauty school & am waiting to take my boards exam. I've heard that chain salons are really good to start at, i.e. Fantastic Sams, Great Clips, Supercuts. I'd like to hear from someone who can offer me more insight on this matter.

Easyjet flight problems!!?

I'm taking my first easy jet flight in a couple of weeks. I am not certain either, so I am going to print off the confirmation letter and anything else they email me. At least that way, if I need it, I have it and if I don't, it is only an extra piece of paper to carry. Just print off everything and you will have what you need.

MPs pensions- when are they going to agree that it must happen at the next General Election?

News item in 2010. MPs could lose �15,000 a year from their generous pension plans under reforms unveiled by a government review board yesterday. Retirement packages may be altered to mirror the current pension amount that workers in the private sector receive. The Senior Salaries Review Board said that the taxpayer contribution to MP pensions should be reduced to 10.5 per cent of their total salaries - half of the current figure. If plans are put into effect an MP elected this year would see their annual pension drop from �37,240 to �22,579.

Question about college board/room?

When you fill out the housing application online, there's a part where you can request a roommate or be roomed at random. Have you ever lived with them before? Don't be surprised if you both don't mesh when you have to live together. It's what happens when good or best friends decide to room together. Talk to your RA (resident assistant) to solve all problems. Find out when the deadline date for switching roommates is if it ever comes to that.

Slave inspection....................…

I don't know what exactly it is you seek since there is no question asked. I will comment though. This kind of inflammatory, self-fulfilling trash is only written to give you artistic liscense to cover your obscene and biggoted nature. Why don't you try something along the line of the troll under the bridge, which would make a great book of reflection on yourself!

If you fail inspection is there a way i can drive it with out tags or get temp tags for the car to get it fixe?

i have a ford 2001 mustang that i got for a gift from my dad. It is a salvaged rebuilt car and when i got it inspected in Georgia they said that the bottom of the radiator support was bending and needed to be fixed. Now i do not have tags or even plates on the back of the car but i cant take it to a body shop.

Do I need to register my car if I won't drive it?

I know here in California you have to get a non-usage registration. Its pretty cheap and if you do not register it, it will be very expensive when you do. If its only for a couple months you can get 3 month extensions for free at the DMV

I'd like the most religious of people to answer this...and be honest.?

What sensor are they referring to?

my 2001 blazer is tripping the P0440 code which is EVAP system malfunction. on the OBD-CODES website, it is saying: 'Check and/or replace the sensor'. what sensor are they referring to? im going to replace the purge valve just to be safe. then if the code comes back, im going to replace the vent canister valve in the rear of the vehicle. other than those two, i just want to know what sensor are they referring to so i can inspect and or replace it. thank you for your inputs :))

Anyone own a Hoover F5914-900 SteamVac carpet shampooer? I have a question re assembly.?

Designed for pet owners and active households, this hot-water vacuum cleans carpets after they've been dry-vacuumed and scrubs bare floors. The 1,440-watt vacuum applies hot tap water and cleaning solution (a 16-ounce bottle is included) into carpet fibers or onto bare floors with five rotating brushes at two speeds, and then it vacuums up the dirty water. No faucet hookup is required. Both the clean-water and dirty-water tanks detach for filling and emptying, and the vacuum shuts off automatically when the dirty-water tank is full.

Could I get into University of Chicago?

You could get in, but there's a lot of people just as qualified as you. You seem like a good candidate you have the scores for it. I would apply if I were you. Its not for sure but you have a good chance at it. Your Sat scores are alright it would have been better if you got a 2000 or higher but thats fine. I would send your act and sat in if you apply, because their both pretty good. Normally look at your unweighted gpa, they won't care about your weighted most of the time.

Best Tablet To Get As Of Summer 2011?

I was wondering if anyone could tell me what the best Tablet is to get? Like the iPad, Xoom, Playbook, etc. Also if you could give me some details about each individual one that would be great and the price (wi-fi only). Remember to include ALL the Tablets on the market today in your answer so I could inspect each one.. Thanks!

Which of these 3 cases are the best?

My preference would be the Cooler Master 690. There are many cases available. Check out the new ones from Rosewill and save yourself a few bucks. The Black Hawk comes to my mind. The Antec 300 cools very well also, my favorite. Your cooler should be upgraded also. Xigmatech has come out with a new line of copper tube models including those for the LGA 1155 model processor. Used one on a i7 system and the results are very good. Sizes vary according to the width of your case. Add fans also when you upgrade the case. Link to shop. Hope it helps.

Sump pump won't run.?

My basement recently had minor flooding and it was due to the sump pump not running. We just recently had that sump pump put in about 2 years ago so i do not want to think that it is already broken. I have not fully inspected it yet, but my mom said that it does turn on but it won't pump water out. What can be wrong with it, that I can check that will save me from buying a whole new sump pump. Or am i Doomed?

(Repost) Has anyone ever woke up in the night and see a dark figure in your room yet you cant move or scream?

Once i was falling into deep sleep and suddenly my eyes opened and i could see dark figures moving around in my room. Also while this was going on i unable to get up or scream for help, only the smallest wisp of air could leave my throat. And once I had full control of my limbs and was able to search the room for any sign of intrusion i had found nothing. I was told sleep Paralysis was the cause, yet i also heard another theory of unearthly beings visiting us in our sleep and inspecting us. Im a very opened minded person but that's a little far out for me. I would need alot more evidence to even consider such a theory. What do you think?

What do the classical contributors make of the parlous state of orchestras around the world?

Your absolutely right. It seems we live in an age where fine arts are being neglected by people in general. I love classical music and going to the orchestra. I'm also a piano teacher. One thing that may be a factor is the bad state of the economy. Many people just don't have the extra funds to go to see orchestra concerts. Also, I think people today have less sophisticated taste in music than they did even 20-50 years ago. Sad to say many would rather go see that stupid Bieber kid than listen to real music from an orchestra. In some cities there are volunteer orchestras and free concerts. So, that may be an option for some people. I live in Houston and thankfully we have pretty good support for the symphony and fine arts in our city. Along with that we have two major universities that form an enclave for support in classical music and the arts. Such as the University of Houston Moores school of music and the Rice University music department. I think the only thing we can do is try to help people be more aware of the joy and glory of classical music and the symphony. Creating more interest in orchestras and their decline may help to save them. Thanks for your post.

Is this fraud? I can't tell. What do you think?

If it ends up involving a money transfer, money orders, bank transfer, etc it's a fraud. Anything where the funds you send cannot be safely gotten back in case the car isn't delivered!

Should I upgrade my PC?

Your cpu has started to show it's age, but if it's fine for what you use it for, there's no need to upgrade. Look in to overclocking and overclock it as far as you can go since you have liquid cooling.

Will more RAM speed up my computer?

That is a high spec computer, it should not be running slow under that spec unless you have an awful lot of stuff running constantly off your drives, unless its not been well maintained or have viruses draining all the power out of it.. Upgrading to 12GB will definitely make a massive difference but 6GB is high enough for your system to work perfectly smoothly so something is causing it to slow, think you need to clean your drives and check all your system processes and program data usages, as well as making sure your security software is all running properly and is up to date. The graphics card could be pulling the system down a bit i would recommend an upgrade on that as if you regularly use photoshop and such software i can imagine graphics may struggle a bit there with that card, would be a nice addition to the rest of the powerful system spec you have. Also ddr3 ram has better power efficiency but without the psu spec stated here its hard to see whether you may need to upgrade the psu to support the extra ram, but ram doesnt use a great deal of power anyway so if you're upgrading im pretty sure it'll be fine. May be worth a bit of extra research, good luck :)

Just returned from Afghanistan. What maintenance should I do to my car?

Be sure to change your oil as it breaks down over time even when not being used, check your tires for dryrot since it has been sitting, look for any cracks in the tread or sidewall and if there is any have the tires replaced. Inspect your engine air filter to make sure no critters have set up a home in there since the vehicle has been sitting. Take it to any oil change facility and they should be able to do this for you. Last if there are any grease fittings on the suspension/ stearing have them lube them as the greese will dry out over time. Thanks again and welcome home. I am an Iraqi vet and i know the transistion back to normal life can be difficult, Best of wishes

My girlfriend has started texting another guy?

My girlfriend of almost a year has started texting this other guy. I've never known her to texting him before but in the last 3 weeks she is texting him all the time while i'm with her. She hides her phone whilst she texts and deletes messages fairly regular so getting a quick look is often difficult. I dont even want to inspect her phone cause i want to be able to carry on trusting her as i do but this is really getting me down. When i ask who she is texting she says oh my friend and i've asked why she has just started texting all the time and she just says he texts me. They call each other up a few times a day and her phone rings alot while i'm with her and she walks in another room or just doesnt answer it. He lives 10 miles away and neither of them drive but the other day she opened her diary and out fell a train timetable for guess where? The place where he lives. She said she just picked it up cause she went for a walk in the bus station during her lunch break from work. Thanks for taking time to read.

What is the name of this job? 10 points to the best answer?

hi, i want to be a person who goes to farms and slaughter houses and other faculties like that and do inspections on the live livestock. I could possibly take samples of the livestock's blood, the water they drink, soil etc. And to see if they are in good condition. And if they aren't in good condition or are being treated poorly(not given enough food, given too much, given things that they aren't supposed to have etc) i would give the people time to clea up and then if they don't, i could take the livestock away or shut down their faculty with legal action. Do you know the name of this job. I am wondering if it falls under the agricultural inspection category but the job description says with crops etc. I am wondering if there is an inspector that only inspects the LIVESTOCK'S health and welfare and living conditions. Thanks

Gaming computer build question (psu and gpu)?

Unless you are running multiple high resolution monitors, just go with the best single card you can afford. The 6950 is an excellent suggestion, or the 560 GTX Ti

Why are poor people such bad*sses?

Like, I know that there are people in ALL walks of life that want to run their lives in the grey zone. But one thing that I have noticed is that poor people seem to have this reputation for being total bad*sses. Like, for example, I have spent some time in the rougher areas of town and growing up with some rougher kids. My 14 year old friend was not just into solo sex, but threesomes and orgies. My 15 year old friend was encouraged to become a drug dealer. My 16 year old friend was a prostitute in Calgary and attended some pretty wild LSD raves. I boarded in a school that was in a poorer area one year and within like a week there was like 3 parties going on, like among the same group. I know that there are people like this in poor, middle and rich class, I have just found that the roughest people seem to also be the poorest.

Installing solid state drive as OS disk: "Primary Master drive - ATAPI incompatible".?

To clarify, you tried a reboot with no CD/DVD drive connected and got the same error. Is that correct? Did you remove any BIOS configuration associated with the drive you removed?

Do divorce proceedings cross state lines, and is this legal? Is it legal to get?

You need a lawyer. It is not clear what you are saying here. But I assume you are saying your ex-husbands friends are accusing you of having a dirty home that is unfit for children, and using drugs (you say they hid something in a shoe that you flushed). Get a lawyer. If you don't do drugs offer to take a drug test to prove it. Then request that your husband also be required to take a drug test.

Kentucky Security Deposit Dispute?

I am having a problem with my landlord. The landlord actually mailed us the lease and the lease included the comprehensive list but we were never able to mail this list back to him. 3 years later, we decide to vacate. we gave him proper notice and actually left 10 days early so that he can prepare the property for the next renters in June. 3 days prior to the end of the lease, we inspected the property with the landlord and he noted a couple of things on paper (not a comprehesive list) that he thought he would deduct from the deposit. most of the things he noted were "normal wear and tear" items (painting 3 bedrooms, dust bunnies on light globes and mis-matched light bulbs). In order to not dispute anything we signed his little paper agree to be refunded $750 out of the $1,125 deposit. This also did not include the cost of the carpet clean we paid out of our pocket. A week after the 1st inspection he emailed and said he found more things to deduct and sometime in June (after he rented the property) he said he needed to deduct more cleaning charges and other damages. The landlord seemed to have violated KRS 383.505 thru KRS 383.570 & KRS 383.580. The landlord aslo included this in his lease and I thought this would be prohibited under KRS 383.570: "Landlord shall have the right to recover from Tenant all costs over and above the security deposit retained, accruing to Landlord as a result of repairing or correcting damage to leased premises resulting from the Tenant’s occupancy, including reasonable attorney’s fees required for the collection of said costs".

Is Hardi board siding the same thing as composite hardboard siding?

We live in a 5 year old house with Hardi board siding. Due to a possible company relocation we may have to move. The relocation company working with our company guarantees to buy the house if it doesn't sell in 90 days however they do not make this guarantee if your house has composite hardboard siding. So I am now trying to figure out if Hardi board is the same as composite hardboard siding. Thanks for any help you can give me.

I just found a small, painful bump on my elbow?

It's probably just a run of the mill bruise. Sometimes I get cuts and don't notice it until later. It could just be an irritated spot on your skin. Maybe you rubbed it against something repeatedly. Just don't worry about it, odds are it's nothing.

Can you take bottled water & hamburgers in your pants pockets to 6 Flags?

They only briefly search you. Be sure to hide that stuff good! As long as theres no metal in the packing of the food your good. Although if they suspect something suspicious they are allowed to do a strip search anytime they want.

Wow... Home inspectors are...?

So We are selling our home for way less than it was once worth, as everyone is. We finally, afters days got the report from the buyers inspector and it has literally 30 things the buyer wants done, anything he recommended, he wants. Theyre testing common mold, they're just being assholes in general and making this a really awful time of stress. The man who inspected suggested things that our contract said doesnt need to be done, roof tiles being broken is stated as cosmetic! I am having a minor heart attack. he also wants us to repair cracks on the driveway, small cracks! I just dont get it at all. Is this what every inspector does? In the contract we're limited to the amount we spend on repairs, do they all expect you to pay for the tiniest things?

Which PC setup would be better for me?

Build 2, DEFINITELY build 2. It will perform better in games, and seeming as you've gone for the k version, you're probably willing to overclock. The i5-2500k overclocks better than any i7's that are out right now, and once you do that, you will get a lot more bang from that processor.

How to keep bedbugs away?!?!?

We have been living in a apt for 8 months now and we have been infested with roaches and now our couch has bedbugs! Our bed doesn't have them but I REALLY want to keep it that way. It is up on a frame and I have put vaseline around the wheels because I heard this prevents them from climbing up onto the bed. I also heard spraying pure ammonia can help, but I have an 18 month old and don't know if thats safe. Any other suggestions to keep them out of our bed and maybe even eliminate the problem entirely? Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. Thank you and God Bless =] P.S. we aren't financially able to move right now, and I already called the city to come and inspect.

How to remove old carpet tiles stuck to floor boards?

I have recently moved into an old house and have come to sorting out the bathroom. There are currently carpet tiles down (which are smelly and unhygenic) that I want rid of. I tried to lift a bit from one of the edges but it was near on impossible to get up. It seems to be stuck directly to the original floor boards (which I would like to remain fully intact) by this super strong black adhesive. I would rather not have to get pay someone to remove it but also don't want to do it incorrectly myself thus destroying the floor boards as I want to mantain as many of the original features as I possibly can. PLEASE HELP!

Are these good specs for a gaming PC?

If you're willing to drop that much cash, sure isn't a bad rig, and as a matter of fact, that graphics card will easily handle anything. I have an ATI Radeon HD 5770 which has 1GB of VRAM and I can play almost any game out there at this time. I, personally, don't like Home Premium and would upgrade to Professional if I was you. However, it is your choice, everything else looks great! Good Luck!

How much RAM does the new Yahoo Mail really need?

Ok so there is this like 25 year old horse at my barn I board my horse at. I rode him today because his owner was away.

What is the best Verizon Feature Phone for me?

I feel like you read my mind...I feel exactly the same way that you do...I was told by my local Verizon store that the worst phones to get are the Kin1 and Kin2..they had tons of complaints and they pulled their displays off the showroom floor. My niece has the Pantech Jest and loves it but again I was told horrible things about that one too. I have been leaning towards the LG Cosmos Touch. It's had mixed reviews but seems to be a solid uncomplicated feature phone. Only thing I don't like is it can't video record...Good Luck! I hope someone else answers and can shed some light! :)

Can i set up a home WAN server with windows server 2003?

you probably need to switch to a bridged connection. hopefully your BSNL connection goes through a router or is a direct DHCP connection to the internet. If so, your guest will pick up its own unique IP once bridged. Assuming BsNL allows that...

Why do I get the stink eye from a Bible study group?

When I went to a church last fall for a turkey dinner, I noticed on their bulletin board that they were offering a Bible study. Since I am now retired, I was looking for something to do besides watch TV and surf the Internet. So I asked the pastor if the study was for church members only, or could anyone come. She said anyone was welcome. They meet one morning a week and I've been going to it since last November. We read a chapter, the discuss it with the pastor's guidance. I am familiar with the Bible, having read it through 5 times. If there a question at the study, I usually give the others that attend a chance to answer (the other attendees are senior woman), but more often than not, they just sit there and look uneasy, so then I chime in. Sometimes the pastor is so impressed with my answers that she writes them down what I say to use in her sermons, commenting that I am inspired (or something to that effect). However, when that happens, the other study members usually give me sidelong annoyed glances when I speak and especially if it impresses the pastor. Why should what I say bother them so?

Does memory make a difference in gaming?

2gb ram is more than enough for crysis. you may be facing low fps coz i think you are using a 64bit windows. a 64bit win7 os uses 1.4gb of ram at normal. so you are left with just 640mb of ram for games and apps. atleast get another 1gb stick and crysis will not struggle.

How do I get my tent down faster?

The girl I sit next to in class talks to me a lot and through most of the classes we're in together I have a rager. My teacher likes to call on me to go to the board a lot though too, so I have to act like I don't hear her or bring a notebook with me to hide my *****. How can I make it go down faster?

How do you decide to leave?

Sketch out parallel futures with him and without him. Your children, if my math is right, are now 16, 14, and 12. Even the 12 knows you are not happy and probably, if honest, they all would say that they would rather you be happy than having two parents in the house. They will pull together with you to run a house should you leave and take them, so don't let the children be a factor in your decision. Thinking of your two parallel futures, ask the old Ann Landers question - am I better off with him or without him? The answer will show you what you should do. Best of luck to you, teacher of the year. I wish he would prize your singular and impressive accomplishments more highly.

EVGA GTX 420 2WIN VS EVGA GTX 570?

If you are a gamer and general computer enthusiast, Cut the CPU back to a 2500k, the hyperthreading will be most useless for your needs. The 2500k is still an unlocked quad core... That will save you $100. a href="http://www.evga.com/articles/00613/" rel="nofollow"http://www.evga.com/articles/00613//a EVGA states the 460 2win is faster than their 580GTX, just remember that is before the 580GTX is overclocked... Nvidia cards are very good overclockers. Many say the 560GTX Super overclocked editions are equal to a 570GTX unclocked... There is still that thing of, some cards perform better in certian games than others, yada yada yada... Back to the CPU though, you can get just as high of an overclock from a 2500k as a 2600k, most get ~4.5Ghz on either with a good cooler.

Belly button piercing help! ?

I work at a water park as a lifeguard and I'm always wearing a suit under board shorts and a rash guard. I ocaaionally get wet but it's usually waist down. I may have to jump in every once and a while for an audit but it's not common. Could I just put band aids over my belly if I were to get it pierced? Because the rest of the school year I'm in water sports so this is basically my only break, summer time that is. If I cleaned it after work and morning/night I won't be risking infection would I?

Broken CFL light bulb. Dangerous?

Put it in a jar and close it with a lid. Plastic bags wont contain the mercury vapour. Take it to a hazardous waste disposal or recycling facility in your area when you have a chance. Don't put it in the trash. This article from Scientific American is helpful:

Can my employer force me to give my full name to the client?

I worked in quality control department for the past 3 years and we always used little stamps with a single number on it (eg mine was 5 and meant work station no 5). About 5 months ego our management decided we should be writing our names on each box we inspect and recently they gave as special stamps with our names on it. My friend who is African and some eastern european staff think that they are receiving more complaints than before because their names sound foreign and we all start to wonder if we can do anything about this new policy. Any ideas?

Trying to buy a car through Google Checkout.?

The car is an 02 Mustang GT Cobra, 56k/m and is $2850. It is is Hollywood, Florida and i'm in Bossier City, Louisiana and they will ship it to you and allow 5 days to test drive and get it inspected before you buy, but they want the money first. how does that work on Google Checkout? Do you put the money online but Google Checkout hold it while the seller ships the mustang or does the seller get it first? Because there is a lot of auto frauds on Google Checkout I just wanted to get the voice of other who have maybe used it or to see what their opinion about it is.

Next to upgrade at my PC?

Well, either get an SSD as a system disk, or change the motherboard in order to upgrade the processor. I'm leaning towards going for an SSD systems disk, so that you can wait for the LGA 2011 socket processors that are coming out at the end of this year (well, allegedly).

Illegal kitchen on long island?

My landlady has a illegal kitchen and tenants on the second floor, I want to sue her. What should I do? Officials from Brookhaven inspected the second floor a few months ago, and they found nothing there because my landlady removed everything--and when inspectors left, my landlady replaced everything. She told me that the fine for having an illegal extra kitchen was 10,000. I hate her. What should I do?

Would you be offended?

The only thing that I noticed was the narrators use of the word "savages" to describe the slaves. The Narrator, unless it is a character in the book talking in first person, should be unbiased. It sounds as if the writer herself is calling them savages.

How much do you think my Gaming Desktop I built is worth?

Right now, its really anyones guess. I suggest looking around on different websites such as eBay, and seeing how much similar computers are going for. You really never know, one month one like yours may go for $800, the next month it would go for $350. I'm just going to go with about $600, only since it's used and you have a moderate gaming pc. Good luck!

Pc won't turn on at all?

Is it the mother board? the fans don't work either but the green light on it indicates that the mother board is receiving power

How much is my computer worth?

Considering it comes with the monitor and warranty you could try for 400-500. It can be difficult to sell desktop towers for what you'd expect them to be worth. It all depends where you sell it too

Do the components in this PC rig look compatible to you?

Looks all compatible to me. On a side note, if you aren't going to be overclocking, the stock CPU cooler that comes with the processor will be sufficient.

Does a landlord have a right to periodically inspect his rental houses?

I will be renting out a house in Livonia, MI soon. Since the city of Livonia requires an annual inspection to be sure that all building codes are met, would I (as the landlord) be allowed to inspect it along with the city, to make sure the tenants didn't damage, modify, or paint anything as prohibited in the lease contract? I realize that tenants have a reputation for not taking care of the house as they should, and I would have a clause in the contract that says they're not allowed to change any fixtures, paint any walls, or modify any part of the house in any way. I just want to make sure that is being honored.

XFX 5830 overclocked guide?

Well, the card will only overclock as high as its maximum voltage will allow. And since most manufacturers cap the voltage (for safety reasons), then you're not going to damage it. Heat is obviously an issue when you overclock, though. Which you can counter by increasing fan speed. You can overclock that card right in Catalyst, or with something like MSI Afterburner -- which works with all cards. You can increase the voltage, fan speed, and core & memory clocks. MSI Afterburner will allow you to increase the voltage of the card to the maximum it supports -- which in turn will allow stability when you crank the core speed up. Be sure to run the fan speed high (at least 65% or higher), to keep the heat down when overclocking. To get MSI Afterburner to work on ATi cards, there is a certain tweak you have to make to one of the configuration files in the Afterburner folder. Simply visit this page to read how to: a href="http://www.overclock.net/amd-ati/641299-guide-enabling-unofficial-overclocking-msi-afterburner.html" rel="nofollow"http://www.overclock.net/amd-ati/641299-…/a

If the headgasket in a car has been fixed, will the oil dipstick look like chocolate milkshake?

I inspected a car today ( Renault Clio 1.2 1999) The owner said that he fixed that headgasket but when I checked the oil dipstick it has rusty look and there is barely black colour of oil there. He claimed that will take time for it to get to its original colour. However, I wasn't convinced but since I'm no mechanic I couldn't argue that either. Any idea? Thanks in advance.

Opinions on my short story?

Terribly sad and devastating, but extremely well written. Your vocabulary is phenomenal as well as your writing style. The voice could use some work though. It seemed very informative. A great base off the Hunger Games. I truly felt it could have been a side story in the novels. All in all, it was fantastically tragic. Brrravvvo! :)

I win too much and it makes people hate me? What should I do?

Board games, card games, video games, sports, or you name it, I win entirely too much. I've always been competitive and I also have a moral I've lived by for my entire life, "Always give it your all and never lose on purpose." I've literally lived by that since I was like 7 and I'm 18 now. However, I noticed that winning a lot makes people dislike me. I NEVER, repeat, NEVER brag after I win, and I try to make up some excuse like it was just luck. Still, how can I keep my morals and not be disliked so much?

Can car salesman lie about the cars?

The other day, I went to look at a used car at a dealership and, at the time, asked him if there were any engine problems (oil leaks, transmission, etc.) and he immediately told me there was nothing wrong with it. After our test drive, I noticed a light smell of burning oil and proceeded to inspect the engine for myself. I found a large patch of thick oil residue on the engine and saw an oil spot where the car was originally parked. I told the guy and proceeded right off the lot. Today, I had a friend call the exact same salesman and ask him about the car and again the salesman said there was nothing wrong with the engine (bull.) Can they really just lie to people about this stuff? What if some poor person walked in and trusted the guy and bought a lemon?

Bird died mysteriously until we found out what might have been the cause, could this be it?

So for mothers day we got my mom a pair of parakeets that were on special at petco, one survived while the other died. We made jokes that one killed the other cause they got in a fight over who's colors are better. But we had to throw him out. We didn't inspect the body because that is germ city and birds are infamously known for flu and other types of diseases. So the other day I do this on a normal sunny day in california basis, I hang my bird in the front of my house. So I am chilling waiting for my dog to pee since I took him out to pee on the grass cause he was whinning. And A FREAKING OVER SIZED fatty cat comes falling out of a tree and i'm like you MOTHER-F word and I chased it down. Keep in mind I hate cats, especially strays. So this made me angry as hell. Me and my look each other in the eyes and said now we know what killed our bird. Cats are smart and I wouldn't doubt that one of them tried to kill the bird or open the cage but couldn't so he shook it or scratched the cage and harmed my bird therefore leading to his death. Sadly I can't take out my bird until later when my backyard trees come out and my puppy protects it. ;) but I was wondering if there is no sign or entry or the birds being loose is possible a cat could of shook/scratched and clawed my bird to death?

If I get a 1600 on SAT, will they add 600 pts. to that score?

It means that they reached the amount or they surpassed the 'limit' to getting a good score. And no college board does not add 600 points to your score. :D

I have been advised to disassemble and replace the necessary parts, but I am a beginner and I want to know what are the parts which I have to inspect and what are the most probable ones which I have to replace.

Solid State Drive or CPU & RAM?

Go CPU and RAM. For a video editing PC, CPU power is the most vital part. Your CPU and RAM are somewhat outdated, i'd definately upgrade them first. I'd go with your option 1, but 6 gb is slightly excessive in the RAM department. What OS are you running, as in, 32 bit or 64 bit? An SSD would not particularly help your system all that much anyway.

New landlord states in his lease?

that he has authority to inspect the interior of my home on a yearly basis.Now isn't that unconstitutional since it's illegal to do a search without a warrant?How can he enforce an illegal act?

Is this violating any laws....?

Your apartment complex gives you a date that they are coming to inspect your apartment and they put the date, the week of June 13, for example.....but do not come till 2 weeks later and knock on your door to inspect the apartment. How long can they leave something open to come in to your apartment whether you are home or not. What if they do not show up at all, could they 2 months later come in whether you are home or not?

2000 Mustang Coupe with dual exhaust?

I have had a 2000 Mustang for a little longer than a year now and the check engine has been on forever, I just went to get it inspected and apparently 4 of my 6 oxygen sensors are defective. I was going to fix the problem by getting new mufflers at a junk but I realized that my car has a dual exhaust and that Mustangs in my year come with a single exhaust. Would it be better to find a dual exhaust and keep it the way it is rather than replace it with a single?

Corsar gaming gs700W or ocz ?

Corsair is the flagship of PSU's one of only 3 manufactures that guarantee their wattage. alot of off brands will proclaim a model to be say 600w but you might only get 500 something at max

Please Tell Me If These 3 Items are Compatible With The Motherboard?

They are compatible, but you'll also need a power supply of 500w or larger for that video card. The 300w that comes in your Dell is not enough to run it.

I may be wrong, but if that's the case, either you accidentally unplugged your fans or your PSU is not strong enough.

How do I fix a squealing sound coming from my N14 Nissan Pulsar Ti (SR20DE)?

It is common in any car when the belt is not tight enough. Tighten it up a bit after loosening the adjusting bolt. Not to tight or it will stress your other pulley's like waterpump and other stuff.

Can my landlord force me to leave my apartment while he inspects for bugs?

I have never heard of a bug sniffing dog before. One would think that he can search your place but you should be able to be present for it.

I just started skateboarding over 3 weeks and I can skate straight and pop my board up to catch it to carry. I don't live near any ramps so hitting those are out of the question.

I need to sue a freight forwarding agent in Los Angeles. What happened was I bought a car in Los Angeles and shipped it to Mongolia.

What can I do to resolve this problem?

I sold my 2003 Chevy blazer to my cousin. I sold it for 2000.00 because he needed a car for work. Well, my cousin had it for a year now. He says that he's having transmission problems, so he had it rebuilt. But he says that something is still wrong with it. He wants me to help him repair it. I said no. It was sold as is. I had no problems with it when I owned it. I do know that used vehicles present problems but come on. Before I sold it to him, I had it inspected and got new tires for it. Now he has his mother asking me to repair it. Now they are mad at me. In the past 5 years he has damaged 3 cars. Two of them he wrecked (he was in the wrong both times) and third car's motor was damaged. But this is my fault. What can I do to resolve this?

You actually make yourself seem immature and unintelligent. Your maturity is very typical of a liberal.

No not offended at all, this used to be the way of life many years ago, so it doesn't offend me, not unless it's rather for the slavery then against it or along those lines.

Finalizing computer build, Compatibility check/suggestions?

Pretty solid rig you got going there. You'd only have a choice to get the Asus Sabertooth p67 mobo due to the fact that the Asus Maximus IV Extreme Mobo is a Extended ATX mobo. Would not fit in the NZXT Phantom from the specs I'm looking at. I'm assuming you're going to be gaming, yes? Do you have a budget, looking to get the best?

What do you think of this?

Does anyone actually introduce people standing right next to them by hair color? Especially to people they know but haven't seen in years? You also need some serious work on your grammar, (you're only one exclamation point short of a "sure sign of a diseased mind," as another Terry puts it,) but otherwise, not bad.

Have had new tyres as keep wearing . Happened about 2 years ago but dont drive it on motorway much so thought it was ok after being repaired.

What is the name for a Agricultural Inspector that inspects the livestock and their conditions?

What is the name for a Agricultural Inspector that inspects the livestock and their conditions? Not someone who inspects crops, or just meat, but rather who inspects the living conditions of the animals,their surroundings and the animals health. Who's focus is only on the animals themselves. They might inspect their blood, urine and food to determine if they are living in good conditions? Thanks so much!!!

Will This Run Battlefield BC2 Maxed?

With ease. Those cards will slaughter those games, hold well above 30fps at all times. BF3 was run maxxed out at a constant 60fps with a GTX 580 at E3 convention.

Landlord won't change out fire extinguishers, can I withhold rent?

I have brought it to the attention of my landlord that the fire extinguishers in the building were last inspected (according to the tag) in 2004. He has done nothing to get another inspection done and this building does not have a sprinkler system since it is a rowhouse that's nearly 100 years old. Can I withhold the rent until he gets it fixed? I am really sick of having to bug the landlord to death about small things but something like this is really not small at all. Could I tip off the fire department and have someone inspect the building?

I need to sue agent of shipping company in Los Angeles. What happened was I bought a car in Los Angeles and shipped it to Mongolia. And the container which was carrying my vehicle got chosen randomly in Chinese custom on its way to Mongolia. So that container got inspected there for over 2 months. Finally, Chinese custom made decision and asked to pay penalty for being chosen randomly. But the shipping agent I used asked me to pay that penalty. They asked me to pay 3000$. So they can continue the process to ship it to Mongolia from Chinese custom. My question is I need to sue them, where can I find a lawyer for this kind of situation?

P.C. wont start up, no monitor activity, everything else fine...?

Is there a speaker hooked up to the MOBO? If not find one and see if you get POST beep(s). Did you use Thermal compound when installing the new heat-sinks? If not that could be very bad.

How do I stop wanting to be a loner?

It seems all I want to do is play video games/ board games and sleep. I feel like getting away from all people in general. Yet at the same time, I don't want to want this, if that makes any sense. Like I'm torn. Anybody ever feel the same/ understand and what helps?

How do they find traces of marijuana plants?

How would U.S.A professionals find out you have marijuana growing in the middle of your woods? Certainly they wouldn't conviently ask to inspect the forest you live in, and it would be impossible to ride in a hellicopter overhead and spot it, so how do they spot marijuana?

Maingear Vybe Stock - Worth the buy?

That price of $2014, really is a bit steep. If you build it yourself with all of the top spec equivalents to the parts you have here, without a monitor it would cost you only $1629 (that's with parts worth $100's more than the ones here) on NewEgg without tax and shipping & handling. However if you do insist on buying this rig you will need to beef up that graphics card to maybe an AMD Radeon HD6970 2GB. And also you should have a lot more power on tap for a gaming computer than 520W even if SeaSonic is a great brand. So i'd get at least 600W, maybe 800 or 850 is you're planning to upgrade in the near future or if you are thinking about overclocking your system.

How about the pc which I'm going to build?

That's pretty decent actually. A lot of people tend to go overkill on the processor, these days you don't really need much processing power for most things.

Difference between sae 30 and 5w30?

Would accidently putting in sae30 instead of 5w30 oil cause car problems? My dad put in the wrong one, and my car was fine for the first two days, but today my car stopped working. It was just inspected in March. I drive a '96 Nissan Altima by the way.

Yes it will play it easily. I don't see any motherboard specs there so I don't know what your max memory is. I'd assume probably 8 GB. 4 GB is enough for basically anything now though

Flashed twice by a camera, after jumping a red light, what to do expect?

Today i was flashed by a camera twice upon jumping a red light, i then turned around to inspect the camera maybe thinking there was one of the grey cameras that are located next to the traffic light only to find there was no camera around, is it possible there are now new cameras that are operated via some sort of cctv or new hidden flash cameras.

Half chap help.. My chaps are slippery as ice!?

This is going to sound crazy, but if they are not an expensive pair, and they are mostly suede leather then you can put them in the washing machine... After a couple of months of wear my cheap half chaps go from suede to smooth because the horse sweat and dander just gets into them. Put them in an old pillow case to protect the washing machine from buckles or clips and then just put the washing machine on normal cycle. If you have leather detergent it helps but it's not essential. I've been doing that to my $30 chaps every 3 or 4 months for the last 2 years and they've lasted great, they look almost new when they come out of the machine.

power supply is questionable. grab xfx / corsair / enermax / silverstone. also, new Z68 boards are out. Z68 asus pro.

Is this the most recommendable PC build?

I don't understand why people think they need to overclock brand new hardware? If you get this you will already have one of the best processors on the market. What will you gain from overclocking other than saying that you did it? Absolutely nothing. Your gains will only be marginal because they still haven't optimized programming to use all the cores in the best manner. Software is also continuously improving. But it's your money I think that you are stupid for trying to oc new hardware just for bragging rights.

PARKING LOT INJURY AT MY APARTMENT?

You contact the code enforcement officer for your area, and that is the person you report the violation to, if his insurance is expired then you would have to sue him for the medical expenses. If there are unsafe conditions you can end your contract but the landlord will probably keep any deposit, however you could include it in the law suit.}{

Smith and Wesson Model 442 snub-nose .38 Special - Crown seems nicked or dinged, does it need to be repaired?

If it shoots accurately,I would leave it alone. There is NOT a single production gun made today without some burr, nick, or imperfection on it. That is the reality of today's quality control.The best that can be had is that the gun functions well and is accurate for its intended purpose.

How much will I get for vehicle totaled by a manufacturer recall?

I just took my car to a dealer to be inspected due to a recall notice, and the dealer found that the car was indeed affected by the recall and was not repairable (or at least they didn't want to pay for it). How am I going to be compensated? I bought this car new and babied it the whole time, I had no plans to get rid of it anytime time soon, and this defect has deprived me of years of potential use of the car. I don't think it is equitable for them to just give me standard blue book value (offering trade-in value would be an insult), as I couldn't come close to replacing the car for that amount.

Do the inpection people check the radiator when I have my truck inspected?

nope. they are more worried about the safety, like ball joints, tie rods, brake shoes and pads then the radiator.

Pc Power Supply Problems?

Ever since i built my pc, when i turn it on it stays on for about 2 seconds then restarts itself and is absolutely fine. Power supply is an ocz Fatality 550w and an intel i7 750. I can live with it, but its quite annoying...

Is this offensive to you?

No. This is harsh and honest. Some people may think that including such things in literature is "offensive", but if it's the truth and demonstrates how monstrous you think the traders were, then it's the price you'll have to pay for art. Art is painful, you know? When Upton Sinclair wrote "The Jungle", he included all kinds of nasty details that many people found offensive. But the meatpacking industry changed. He exposed evils that others were too afraid to write about. Bravery and honesty isn't something to be ashamed of. You don't have to go into huge detail--sometimes saying it happened is enough. But even the Bible is more frank with "offensive" subjects. As long as you have the right point of view with good intentions, I think it's probably okay.

Review my new gaming PC I'm getting!?

I really see nothing wrong with your specs at all except the on-board realtek audio card ,recommend a creative x-fi or a asus sound card for deeper bass and all around surround sound , and some logitech z series speakers, and that mobo does support sli and crossfire technology,besides that rating 10*** go ahead with your order and like the corsair cpu cooler good rating on that since you are using a overclock graphic card.

Lately the ends of my hair have been feeling really rough and, in some places, really dry?

Apply some kind of moisture or oil at the ends of your hair at night. It could be scab hair; you can look it up.

Computer randomly crashes?

The overclocking may be the cause of the random crashes. If you can, reduce the over clocking a little and see if the system stabilizes. Better yet, eliminate the over clocking and see if the system is stable. Then slowly increase the over clocking until the system becomes unstable again then back off from that point.

Why did the wild boar seems to be alive after seemingly fatal shot?

At times on some hits, the hog will kick and thrash around as if he were about to run off if he could get to his feet. All shots do not produce instant death, especially when dealing with a hog.That is just the nature of hogs and something that happens on occasion.

My check engine light indicates misfire in cylinder 2. car shakes when idling only.?

I have a 1997 mercury mountaineer 5.0 liter v8 engine the vehicle is idling rough when I'm stoped in all gears but neutral. It over heated a couple days ago 6/18/11 due to a busted radiator. I was driving on the freeway and of course car overheated and stalled out when I got it home I realilze there was oil that had spilled out of the oil dipstick and got all over the headers I finally replace the radiator new with new hoses and fasterners the cars engine light was still on got a diagnostics test saying misfiring in cylinder 2 and oxygen sensor error I inspected second cylinder to find there was residue all around the sparkplug looked like oil I took the sparkplug off to find oily residue on the sparkplug so I replaced the sparkplug with Ford oem part autolite double platinum just like the rest of the sparkplugs and install a new wire for that spark plug inspected the distributor caps clean and error free I have also replaced fuel filter with a wix racing filter change the oil and oil filter new air filter so I'm running out of thing but the engine I have a hunch suspecting that it might be a warped cylinder causing the misfire. If you guys can help at all in wondering what it might be and an estimated figure of how much it might be? I would greatly appreciate it Thank you

Will the harsh fight against illegal immigration hurt Republicans in the future?

I believe the republicans fight against Hispanics will definitely help them for the near future. Not only is it suppressing the Hispanic vote but they also gain votes from people who are for the cause. But in less than 10 years, nothing will matter anymore. Out west we're already seeing it.

Why after changing cpu cooler why my graphic card getting so hot?

There is more heat buildup inside PC case. The better cpu cooler and overclock is throwing more heat inside the case. And it is now warm air that is trying to cool the graphics card. You need to improve PC case ventilation to lower the temp inside the PC case. High airflow rate case fans should solve your problem.

Off base military housing inspection before approval?

The two things they look for is if the area or landlord isn't on the blacklist of off limits businesses to local military members and that your lease has a "military clause" in it that will allow you to break the lease early if you PCS. Other than that no one from housing will physically inspect it and your pretty much on your own to use some common sense in finding safe affordable housing

I see the ruthless, worthless bureaucrat hacks are on the prowl trying to spin their attempt to inspect a dying 95 year old woman's Depends. Will they be the first to succeed in putting a genie back in the bottle? I say no.

I have hot coming out of headlamp switch, all but the purple wire.I've got hot coming out of turn switch on the purple wire, dead when it reaches the headlamp switch.

I'm Building A Gaming Desktop :)?

It looks good, I'm an Intel man but AMD is good no problem, just watch the frame rate! Graphics is the key to good gaming without lag. Of course Cpu and memory are running up there too. I would try to go SLi if you can afford it. I think you will like it. But it looks like the cards that support SLi are not cheap. I use Price Watch.

Are these good specs for a gaming PC?

Yes, you should be able to play just about any game with a system with those specs. Is it top of the line? Not quite. There's a big jump in price if you go higher than what you have there and not too much of an improvement in performance. That's a really nice middle ground for a gamer.

Do you also do this with your girlfriend?

My girlfriend and I have what I guess you would say is a "unique" relationship. We both have I guess sick senses of humour and because of that after either of us takes a big monsterous world ending sh.it the other one comes into the bathroom and we both inspect and rate it together and have a competition based on each day's ratings at the end of the week. Whoever gets the higher number for the bigger more offensive sh.it wins so its a pretty simple game lol. One time my girlfriend had one that snaked all the way around the bowl and kept going so that it touched the bottom of her as.s and we had to scoop some of the sh.it out before we could flush it down lmfao she won that week.

Have you seen this commercial?

The commercial I seek is about a man and a woman who raise the president of the United States. The man is on a train and sees a beautiful woman on another train. He uses his mobile device to change his boarding pass/ train ticket and switches trains. He sits across from the beautiful woman. Light speed ahead as events flash before our eyes, they have a child and that child becomes the president of the United States. If this rings any bells for you and you remember the commercial, please let me know any details about it including the company being advertised, the device being advertised, etc. Thank you, kindly.

What kind of legal recourse do I have?

You bought the car AS IS so you need to understand that is AS IS. Your neighbor does not have to refund any money or do anything. You have the right to sell the car, repair the car, park the car, whatever you wish. You can sue if you wish... as soon as the Judge hears AS IS you just lost, you will be out the filing charges and still have the car. It may have run great for them without any problems but once you buy the car it is yours making no difference if they knew of any problem or not.

What output power ranges of UPS's should I aim getting for this high-end system?

You might have answered your own question. When I don't know what to decide on parts I look for the best one I can afford without wasting money on too much overkill. I believe they are all good for power surges, Lightning struck near our house and blew out our tv but the $35 surge power strip saved our pc. All the major brands will be similar to the other major brands. They like to keep up with their competition.

550W Enough for this Gaming Rig?

No way. DDR5 cards are very high power consuming, and with an i5 you may as well go for a bit more power such as a 750W. You could go with a 550 but with the kind of hardware you are putting in I wouldn't risk it.

Is a seller obligated to accept return on item that was damaged during shipping?

I sold a laptop via Ebay, the laptop was in basically amazing condition, nothing wrong with it. The seller claims it was dented via shipping. A UPS claim has been started and UPS will inspect the package at buyer site. Buyer claims it was due to my packaging that the item was dented. This is BS as I wrapped the hell out of the laptop with bubble wrap and put it in a box with cushion. It is still possible UPS will not pay for damages. Buyer said if they do not, he wants a full refund after sending item back. On my auction I put no refunds are accepted. As a seller, am I obligated to accept returns or can I deny I will do so? If a case is created through paypal will the buyer win? Anyone with past experiences that can comment would be appreciated.

I don't remember a lot of it but: this little girl can move things with her mind. One day in her classroom, they put up these posters, and before the principal walked in, she made all the posters go up and like the chalk board go down. She also helped her teacher steal a Teddy bear from this mean lady. They look in through a window and the little girl makes the lights go off or something. Sound familiar?

PC Power Supply Issue?

Fitting a more powerful PSU shouldn't cause any issues. Unless it's faulty then it's more likely that you've disturbed something else whilst changing it. Check that all cables are plugged in properly and that you haven't missed any such as the 4 pin power plug on the motherboard. Also check that you haven't disturbed the hard drive cables or the power connection for the processor's cooling fan. If it still does it then try removing and refitting the memory and graphics card, and anything else that you can see. Check that you haven't somehow knocked the processor's heatsink out of position too.

White screen after dropping iPod Touch 4G. Please help?

About a month ago I dropped my iPod ON the screen. (I have a rubber case for the back and no screen protector) I have dropped it many times before, from higher heights, but this time I knew it was broken. I picked it up after about 5 seconds and I slowly watched my screen go white. I them reset it to find nothing had changed. So I decided to completely restart the iPod using iTunes...no change. There is no locking or unlocking sound, but voice command does work so I CAN listen to music. At the right angle you can see a section in the screen where it is whiter (where I dropped it.) I called 1-800-APL-CARE and they had me send it to them for repair under free warranty. They only sent it back in the same condition. I called asking why and thy said that I had "water damage in the dock." But if they really inspected the iPod they would have say I had dropped it. According to them they cannot repair my iPod and all I can only use it for music via voice command. Is there anything I can do? Any suggestions at all are appreciated. I DO plan on buying a new iPod eventually though.

Is my computer high-powered or super-powered?

Definitely an interesting combination of hardware. 12 cores are almost useless in gaming and in the consumer market, as most programs and games are optimized for no more then 4 cores, and now a handful support up to 8 threads (because of hyper threading), but you have 24. It has super power, but that power can't be harnessed. You should've got faster RAM, >1600MHZ, but the graphics cards are really good. You would have been better off with 3 580s triple SLI, and using a 460 as a dedicated PhysX card. Overall, I'd have to say it's high powered, because each core has a clock speed of 716MHZ, so it will be comparable to a quad core at 2.86GHZ in most applications. A quad core i7 @ 3.2+ GHZ would still probably perform better on most applications and games out their.

How to transport a computer SAFELY with air cargo?

As you say its going in the hold.....personally I would dismantle it and bubble wrap each part, this will protect it against the coldness of the hold, as will lots of newspaper inbetween each part so that if there is any collision with anything else in the hold, none of the pieces will knock against each other in the box.

Should you backup your data more aggressively if you're using an SSD as your primary OS drive?

I saw a recent post on the Coding Horror blog saying he personally knew someone who bought 8 first-gen ssd drives - all of them failing in a year or less. The author also said that his failed as well. I've got a 60gb ocz vertix 2 running for about 1.5 years now as the primary drive - but should I be concerned to move any existing data to other hdd's?

Seems pretty beef, one upgrade I would recommend if it is within budget is making your primary drive a solid state drive, prob around 128GB, the boot and load times are amazing. And go with a full ATX board too.

06 VW Jetta: Front driver side window was stuck down. Call dealership?

The dealership won't take blame for the window first of all. And it sounds like your window my just be sticking. You could always lube the track and hope it doesn't happen again. My window in my truck has done that since i bought it in 2003 and still does it now and then. I spray the track with grease and it works great for another couple years.

Spindles on a staircase..?

given that i haven't seen the board , so im just guessing, but if its an old house you might find balustrade between the boards?? if the hand-rail is still present, i hav heard of this before........ but if you need to place balustrade and hand rail, its fairly easy i principle , you can buy the balustrade and hand rail ready turned and moulded and its a case of a hammer and precise chisel and fixings, although a tradesman would be a safer option, hope this helps

Want a horse but...? HELP PLEASE?

I have a mini horse now and I board him at a family friend's so I don't really have to pay a set board. I want to get a horse as a companion, like a larger horse, such as an injured thoroughbred that I don't have to ride, and I want to visit it, but I don't live in a super-rural area and I don't have the money to board and pay vet bills constantly. What should I do? I saw a program online for $600 where you can ADOPT a horse but you don't get to own it... Help!

I have no idea on what to do, so what do I do?

In my ROTC program, I was appointed armed drill team commander position, and about every month or so we go to a drill competitions and get 'inspected' by Marine Corps Drill Instructers, and I'm not sure if I could handle being the armed drill commander. Should I resign and just be a member of the drill team, or should I continue being the commander and worry on wether or not I'll be able to keep from buckling under the pressure. I'm just really stressed out on realizing what I've gotten my self into. What should I do about this?

Broken CFL light bulb. Dangerous?

It's not dangerous but you can't just throw it away. Call your local government to see where they can be recycled(they do contain a little mercury).

Do all these parts go together to make a working computor?

No. You need DDR3 RAM. Furthermore, there's a perfectly good sound card integrated on the motherboard. The motherboard's an AM3-socket motherboard - and the processor you've chosen is not an AM3-socket processor. You'll need an AMD processor to get an AM3-socket processor. I'm unsure about the power supply - though the ATI Radeon HD 6790 1GB needs at least 500W, I'd go for slightly more, just to make sure. Say, a CoolerMaster Silent Pro M600. Don't go for a Green hard drive as your system drive - they're not really made for that. Go for something like a WD Caviar Black 1TB or something as your system drive.

Is this illegal? (PC's)?

I recently pulled my really old 2004 PC out of the closet. While I was inspecting it I noticed that it still had the Windows XP Home Edition product key and certificate of authenticity on it. I want to install Windows XP on one of my newer PC's because I know that XP is way faster than Vista (and I think that those product keys can work at least 2 or 3 times). The problem is that I lost the Windows Vista Home Edition installation disc a long time ago. Is it legal for me to download an ISO of the installation disc (probably from the Pirate Bay) and then use my purchased product key to activate and install it?

Which is better; raid or not to raid?

You should never, ever RAID significantly dissimilar devices. In this particular case, RAIDing the two devices would give you the worst of both worlds, the SSD's speed would be dropped to that of the HDD and the HDD's capacity would be dropped to that of the SSD. YUCK!

Problem with SSD trying to Dual Boot?

So I just bought an OCZ Vertex 2 120GB SSD and installed windows 7 on it. Then I was going to put Ubuntu 10.04 LTS and accidentally hit to automatically have Linux pick the partitions which messed everything up. That led me to format all of the partitions on my SSD in Windows and now when I try to install windows on it it says it doesn't have a root file/folder or something like that. PLEASE I would really appreciate any help. Thanks.

Help with business to business dispute?

Hi, My business was supplied with a faulty product in december 2010, we found the fault more or less immediate and reported it over the phone. there Representative came out to have a look at the damage so they are aware (agree?) well they still have done nothing to sort it so I have written a letter to them telling them I have had enough of waiting and want them to collect and refund me the money I paid as I have waited long enough! There reply to this was that they was not aware of an issue (what Rubbish) as they have nothing in writing and supplied me with their terms which state all faults must be advised in writing within 5 days of delivery. I must have imagined their representative inspecting the fault and all the conversations since!! This representative is self employed so they are not his boss but I still think he would be reluctant to defend us if it went to court as he would not like to upset the supplier. What I really want to know is do I have a legal argument to get my money back? p.s another company we deal with reported the same fault with the same product only a few weeks before us (if that has any baring)

Multiple desktop hard drives(and ssd's) in 2 or more RAIDS?

Rhyled is right. SSD's are very tricky to RAID and still keep performance. RAIDing mis-matched drives is also tuff especially SSD with conventional drives. The Z68 chip is suppose to make it easier but I haven't tried it yet. I'm not a big fan of SSD as they don't have a "track record" yet but I do have a crucial 64GB as my OS drive and a WD 1T as the regular drive. There are "Hybrid" drives out there that combine SSD and conventional drives in one unit.

Why do the sliding pins in your car's brakes freeze?

The term "freeze" is a metaphor or binding or seizing. Usually the pins bind when the pads are more than half worn and the pads have to travel a longer way along the "dry" guide pins that the brake pads bind.

How much of the immigration debate is part of the Blame Game?

From all the questions I have asked in regard to illegal immigration matters ,I have practically seen nothing other than hostility. Maybe a few hopes but I don't know if those people were sincere or just yanking my chain.

What is the medical screening like at boot camp for the Navy?

I'm leaving for boot camp in November and my I had to do a medical inspect and my recruiter told me not to mention my past visit to the ER, I slammed my finger in a car door but they just had to bleed it out. Also, I forgot about the random doctor visits I've had in like a year, are they going to find out at boot camp, are they going to look through my entire civilian medical record, and if they do find out, what happens to me?

Is this velvet disease?

my guppy which i have had in a 10 gal tank for a month now seems to be changing color somewhat. this color change has been happening only on his head, he is a blue delta guppy but towards his lower silver head its beginning to turn gold, kind of. he appears very healthy however, and not scratching himself at all. upon inspecting him with a flashlight the color has a shine to it, and it does not appear powdery at all, and it is all local to his head only, and i would figure if it was velvet the gold would show up all over his darker body. and with the amount of time his head has been turning i assume the other fish would have gotten it, but no others show symptoms. is it maybe poor water? or something else? or is it actually velvet?

I would guess around $250-$300. Take the sound card out and either sell it separately or keep it for a future build since it contributes nothing to the value of the computer - 95% of people don't care if the sound is dedicated or integrated.

Dual booting on an SSD?

So I have a 120GB OCZ Vertex 2 SSD on the way and am going to dual boot Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit and Linux(Haven't decided on a distro yet). I am wondering if this will be enough space to adequately run both OS's efficiently and speedy. Also if I want to use my regular 230GB HDD for media do I just make sure I change the path when I am downloading something or do I have to set something up in order to not store anything but the OS's on my SSD? Thanks.

Building my own pc: amd or intel. PSU. Motherboard. GPU and display?

yes the OCZ StealthXStream II, 500W will work and it looks like you will have a awesome pc and for the money i would use amd phenom 2 black edition just read before messing with voltages you can kill the cpu but you can get major over clocking on it though and the mainboard i would chose is Biostar TA790GX A3+ Motherboard that is the best board for the money as well

Questions about SSD (Solid State Drive)?

I would just install the AVG on a mechanical drive, and yes 60GB is plenty of space although I would avoid putting to much stuff on it... and from what I know, is that SSD have a lot smaller life time than mechanical (idk why) but its not worth my money....

Wouldn't you call them YOUR horses . . . ?

Yes, they would be yours. Just explain to her that they were bought for YOU. Tell her that you do all the work for the horses so it wouldn't be fair if she had one, and besides, what exactly is the point of having a horse if you don't know how to ride? Let her come out and pet the horse sometimes so she doesn't get upset.

Building my own pc, what about these parts?

Sounds like a sensible setup for your needs. Go for the Phenom II x 4 CPU and I would suggest that rather than the rather poor Seagate 500Gb you spend a fraction more and get the Western Digital 1TB Green, a much better and faster drive. Its nice to see a common sense approach rather than maxing out just for big numbers.

Major PC upgrade (Virtually new build), I have a few questions, never built a new PC.?

I purchased a Dell XPS 8100 last year, which was excellent with the exception of a low powered 350W power supply and an average GTS 240 GPU. So I decided to purchase a CORSAIR 750W Power supply & a Nvidia 570 GTX Graphics card. But when I went to replace the power supply I found that the old power supply could not be removed and with the case being so small my new power supply wouldn't fit anyway. The other problem I found was that the Dell motherboard had a unique 4 pin power input at the top of the board additional to the 24 pin connection, when the 4 pin connector was unplugged the PC wouldn't power up, so it's not some kind of surge protection. So now, annoyed at Dell's attempt to provide awkward hardware I've decided to purchase a new ASUS P7P5SD-E PRO motherboard, which has SLI, crossfire, USB 3.0 etc. I'm also getting a Nzxt Phantom PC Case and an OCZ Technology 120Gb Vertex 2 SATA II SSD. Additional to the parts already mentioned I will take from my old PC my 8 Gb DDR 3 RAM, 860 i7 (I'm assuming the heat-sink/fan for the CPU will fit my new board), 2Tb hard drive, Network card & a Blu-ray optical drive. So my first question would be, when I plug everything in, should it boot up if connected to the hard drive with the OS? Will I have any problems with BIOS having removed the Dell motherboard & will it boot with the new motherboard? Will I have to purchase a new OS? My intention is to transfer the operating system onto the SSD and is it possible to copy the files over from the 2TB hard drive? I'm hoping to build it and set it up myself, but I'm hoping whether someone with more experience would let me know if I would be better of booking it into PC world?
