About a week ago, I got drunk with my ex bf. He was a little drunk and I was completely tanked. I'm not sure if he finished inside of me or not. I thought he had but the next morning, I didn't have any evidence of it when I went to the bathroom. Is it more likely I went to the bathroom and cleaned up that night but don't remember it or that he didn't come inside of me? He always came inside of me when we were together, even when he was drunk.Don't blame it on being drunk, you knew you were about to have sex and you could have put a condom on. Would you have rather taken 2 seconds to put on that condom or waste the next 18 years of your life taking care of a baby you never wanted? I think condoms would have be...... - 2009-12-26

Wenger yet again sneaks a Frenchman across the channel. http://soccernet.espn.go.com/headlinenews?id=256438&cc=5901 Good signing for both, I think. I haven't been impressed with Taylor or Shabaan, so he has a decent chance at being # 2 next year as well.does this make joe cannon their number 1?Tell Wenger it's pronounced ZHO-seff CAN-nyon and maybe we can trick him into taking Joe for the team as well.Originally posted by jamison Wenger yet again sneaks a Frenchman across the channel. If he doesn't stop doing this I will personally go down there and beat his ass. I wish players could not be transfered from one country to another.

» With this world economic turmoil, who receives the gains, if the other were losing & suffered this recession?

I just wonder since it was reported in the news that US, the entire eurozone are in recession, and so is japan, the second larget economy.I don't think there are any gains in a recession. There are only losses. When people and various organizations borrow too much money and can't pay it back. Then both the borrowers and the lenders loose. And when trade and commerce decreases a lot because borrowers can't borrow any more and lenders are either unwilling or unable to lend. Then both the borrowers and the lenders loose. Workers who get laid off as a result also loose. Governments who collect less taxes as a result also loose. And perhaps people who work for the government or depend on government social programs also...... - 2009-12-26

» Subtle animations choppy in CS3

Hi I'm doing some button animations in CS3 that contains animated bitmap elements. The bitmaps should have subtle movements on rollover, but I can't get smooth movements (as I could in Flash 4-8) when I animate the bitmaps over small X, Y distances. The animation gets choppy, like some sort of pixel snapping in on or something. If I increase the X or Y distances the animation goes smoother, but thats not the "look" I want for this animation. Is there something new in CS3 that I'm not aware of? Actionscripted animations is smooth :-/ thanks from ChrisYou need to change the smoothing setting on your bitmap in the flash library.

» WC flange below new floor level

Hi. I just laid ceramic tile, raising the floor level enough that the drain (and flange) is now about an inch (+/-) below finish floor. I thought the plastic adaptor with gaskets would be long enough to accomodate the change, but now it looks to me as if it won't allow a seal between the commode outlet and the drain. What can I install to get the connection tight? Thanks for your help. JoeLowe's has what you need. It looks like a flange, but it is just a ring. They have various thicknesses. Use silicone caulk, line up your bolts, and press the extender ring to the flange. It should bring up the flange.

Lowes has Hitachi fixed base varaible speed Hitachi M12 VC routers for $59.50. They were regularly $119. Nice starter router for someone. Made in china which I despise but should be a decent router!!!I have one of these. At that price they are OK, I wouldn't spend more though. Bad access for changing the bit, especially if you have large hands. I've gotten a lot of use out of mine, aside from the pain in the a$$ bit changes it is not a bad router. I can barely get my fingers in to change the collet. It is not as smooth as my PC and has a lot more plastic. I haven't seen a better router for that price though.

» Can I use this flash on my AE-1P?

I got a great(?) deal on a Sunpak MZ440AF-CA Flash "Auto focus for Canon" What I am wondering is if it will work as expected on my Canon AE-1 Program. Teh instructions are not really clear but seem to imply that it was designed to work with an autofocus camera and may determine output based on focus point... but thats a guess. Since my camera can't report focus distance to it will it just fire at full power all the time? Am I better off looking for an older flash that was designed with the AE-1 in mind?this probably should have been posted in the equipment section. Sorry guys.It should work, but I don't think the TTL metering will work. If that's the case, you would just have to use the flash in an auto, or manual mode...and match th...... - 2009-12-26

» Holga medium format cameras

Recently I decided that I would like to try experimenting with medium format cameras and film. I started off using an old Metascoflex which was lent to me by my father. It was given to him when he was a kid and it was at least 15-20 years old at that time. Basically, it is VERY old. Normally I would say that this doesn't make it bad but... The counter for the film stopped working, it has a light leak, the viewing window is very dirty and scratched, and It has trouble with many types of film. I decided it would be easier to get a new one. Because I'm just experimenting I don't want to spend too much money. I was looking at a few cameras by Holga, more specifically the Woca 120G.

Apart from their fragile and delicate skin (as Iain mentioned) they seem more willing to submit to autotomy and "drop" their tails. They are also very fast.....combine that with their ability to climb vertical surfaces, and you have a problem if one gets out of its cage. Crested Geckos make great pets. They can also climb vertical surfaces, but they aren't fast....they seem to actually prefer hopping and leaping than actually running. Their skin feels rather delicate (in my opinion) but I have never had any problems concerning it though. ...... - 2009-12-26

Truman, Eisenhower, Kennedy, Johnson, Nixon, Ford, Bush the Elder. Carter served ten years as a Navy officer during the Cold War. Bush the Younger served in the Texas Air National Guard during Vietnam, volunteer for Operation Palace Alert which sent Air Guard flight crews to Indochina, but it was determined he had trained and qualified in an aircraft deemed obsolete for that purpose. By contrast, Woodrow Wilson led this nation through World War One and Franklin Delano Roosevelt did so in World War Two. Neither man could have served since both were physically disqualified for service. Wilson for a stroke he suffered in 1905 which forced him to become left-handed and Roosevelt for his polio.

All therapists direct their attention in some manner during psychotherapy. A special form of directing attention, 'mindfulness', is recommended. This study aimed to examine whether, and to what extent, promoting mindfulness in psychotherapists in training (PiT) influences the treatment results of their patients.

Air Conditioning SystemFan Coil Unit (FCU) is like a split unit, where the chilled water pipe comes in the room , gets circulated through the coil in the unit cooling the air circulated by the fan in the FCU. The FCU is just the portion which is insatlled inside the room and rest of the HVAC system is outside . Air Handling Unit (AHU) is bigger than FCU and is installed above slab level and the chilled water coil and fan is inside the AHU . It directly transfers air through ducting and diffusers to the Air conditioned area. In this case air ducting comes to area instead of chilled water piping. FCUs are used for compactness and flexibilty of operation and save fan power in contrary to much bigger AHUs. regards....... - 2009-12-26

» Help! My pimples are bothering me so much!!!!?

i have used soooo much products, tried each for a month. but seems like nothing worked. I have these pimples for 3 months now. Before, i used to have 1 or 2, but now, i have maybe more than 10 in my face and you can really see them! it's bothering me. I have used Kiehls, Clinique, Proactive, Murad, Dermadoctor, and more. Spot treatment doesnt work for me. Any suggestion? Im losing hope!!!! im thinking of just buying the cheap one cuz the expensive products didnt work! help!
