» Im worrying a little about this. Should i be??

There's this girl that works at the same grocery store as me, that ive lately become attracted to. I really want to ask her out. Solast friday at work she was upstairs on one of my breaks with a couples guys i know, and i didn't really talk to her one on one but i said some funny things just in general and she laughed at some of it but not all of it. Then when i went back to work she asked me twice to show her where something was and i showed and again said some funny things and she laughed a little. Then saturday i went through her till to buy my lunch on a break and we joked about me not having a store card and laughed. Sunday i didnt talk to her personally at work but me and a couple friends at work joked with her twice today. ...... - 2009-07-04

» Are there some news stories you wish were not told in full detail, due to their shocking content?

[I am slowing right down!] The recent cases involving Baby P, The 'British Fritzl' and details of a sentence served man by the name of Alan Webster, who's offence I really do not care to repeat, have ALL been thoroughly sickening. A good contact of mine asked a few days ago about censorship of media/press releases to prevent vigilante-style action, but I would like to question the very reason of these stories being in the public interest. What satisfaction is there in reading such upsetting stories????? I also worry about the desensitising effect repeated exposure of these types of stories will have on some individuals.... Can anyone genuinely say these stories are 'in the public interest'? Do you have a...... - 2009-07-04

I am doing an outdoor graduation shoot next sunday and was planning on getting some collapsable reflectors (so I don't have to borrow from a friend again). I don't have an assistant usually, so I need to get a stand as well. It looks like most of the kits that have a stand included give you a crappy stand. What do you all recommend. I would like to stay $150 or less. Thanks. By the way...I can't order from B&H because they are closed for the next week, and I won't get it in time.Middle of the page, 66X40 was my choice.

» Sound delay and weird sound behaviors, CS3 Bug? (Senocular help?)

Strange things are happening with Flash. I have a bunch of nodes that play sounds on an event; consequently, many sound fx are played consecutively. However, I'm getting very odd behavior (I have a feeling it's due to CS3's garbage collector) It seems as if only about 10 sounds can be played simultaneously. When more than 10 sounds try to play (like if 11 sounds try to play one after the other very fast), no new sounds are generated. This didn't occur in Flash 8 because sounds behaved differently. Sound.start(0,0) was used in Flash 8, and Sound.play(0,0) is used in CS3. These behave differently because start will always play be stopping the sound of the first sound in the queue. So if you had sounds A,B,C trying to play and the flash pl...... - 2009-07-04

I have several toilets in my complex that are double flushing. About 45 seconds after the flush is complete the remaining water in the bowl drains out like a second flush without water coming from the tank.

The one commonality between all of these toilets is that they all sit on an old style angled flange on the bottom floor. Anybody have any suggestions??Its not the line.

» Just because I live in the suburbs, doesn't make my life easier than yours!?

In college, I had a lot of students who lived in decent areas tell me that I must be rich, etc...yet they never thought about how I was ostracized and harassed (among other traumatic issues) for being the only minority living in that area and attending that private school... I am actually envious that they have a strong bond based on culture (I hail from the Islands originally) and have a support system... Is that fair for them to assume my life was easier simply living in the burbs?No, not at all. I have been in both situations.

» Are guys embarrassed to carry COACH wallets?

My boyfriend is very clean cut - was an athlete in college, is still athletic, and has a clean athletic/preppy sense of style. I wanted to get him a designer wallet for xmas but the closest "designer" one I found in the style he likes is at COACH. I know girls love it, but is this a good brand to get for a guy?? I saw a similar wallet at Nordstrom with a brand name I had never heard of - would it be better to go with the brand I know and trust, or one I've never heard of so as to not make him feel obligated to carry something he's embarrassed of? I'd love some guys opinions!! Thanks!usually coach is more for the female audience, so i don't think he'd like that so much. While Louis Vuitton and Gucci make won...... - 2009-07-04

I have lots of problems right now. Another issue from my other post if you read it. One of my memory cards from the shoot tells me "No More Producing Folder" Any idea on that. I've heard you can recover images from CF cards in some manner. Hope So!When I bought my CF cards they came with a disc that allows you to 'recover' lost pics, try googling the name of your cf card and the words recovery, maybe it will turn up something.

I'm curious about your general choice of lens. I notice I do most of my best work with a 17-85. I have other lenses but this is the focal length that I find I do my best photos with. I find wider doesn't get used very often and longer doesn't really give the same quality of image.I honestly don't know, I shoot with all my lenses so much that I can't tell you right off what I think is best, and i'm not about to go through thousands and thousands of images to find out.

How long does it take approximatley to get to london from nottingham, on the train?

It has an outdoor ice rink, big wheel similar in style as the london eye, German market, rides, stalls, places to eat and drink etc. It was better and bigger than I expected, but if you want to go on the ice rink or big wheel then you will need to pre-book tickets.

and also what should be the contrast color for that?play around with the Sherwin Williams color visualizer to help you imagine how the colors will look together.

You can literally spend hours: http://www.sherwin.com/visualizer/ I think a green like "bonsai tint" (# 6436) is a great choice for the kitchen.

And in your area, would this go down as a forfeit, a tie, or a replay? http://www.signonsandiego.com/news/uniontrib/wed/sports/news_2s29p-soccer.htmlIn my area, all high school varsity matches are played under NFHS jurisdiction. If a fan becomes unrulely to the point of profanity or they direct their abusive comments at the players , we simply delay the restart at the next stoppage. We get the game manager (usually a member of the athletic director's staff) and they deal with the fans. Invariably, the rest of the parents will rally around the school officials with much more support than they ever would if we tried to put the burden on the coach. I don't know ...... - 2009-07-04
