» Are there any side effects for E?
I've been takin E for about 5 years... And can honestly say it has side effects ONLY IF YOU OVER DO IT... Its a fun think to do, and for the moment. But don't be doing it everyday like I did. But its reeeeaaal GOOD when just hangin witcho buddies, GOOD MUSIC, Girls/guys around, alcohol.

Hi Guys, I am trying to create a search box like the one on www.macromedia.com (http://www.macromedia.com) so that when the user clicks inside the box the box has a highlight/glow effect to it.

Thanks so much for your help!Looks like they used the TextArea component.If you wanted to make one yourself (I just did :P) you could have something like: import flash.filters.GlowFilter; this.createEmptyMovieClip("textContainer_mc", 0); textContainer_mc._x = 15; textContainer_mc._y = 15; textContainer_mc.createTextField("input_txt", 0, 0, 0, 112, 18); textContainer_mc.input_txt.border = true; textC...... - 2009-07-04
» What should I do if I want to move to Canada?
I'm American and I was thinking about moving to Canada. I was wondering what it would take to move there: immigration procedures, cost of living, best cities, etc. I've also heard marijuana laws aren't enforced very strictly in Canada (especially British Columbia). Just wondering if it's true and, if so, where is the best place to get some good ganja?The immigration process is explained in the following website. The cost of living is roughly about the same as the USA. However, we do have higher taxes to pay for excellent social services such as health care (which you don't have to pay for when you receive treatment or visit a doctor,etc.) welfare, family benefits, old age pensions, etc. Our salary scale is hi...... - 2009-07-04
» Why would water boil immediately on mars?
The air pressure is so low on Mars that even in the most favorable spots, where the pressure is higher than average, liquid water is restricted to the range 0 to +10 °C," says Bob Haberle of the NASA/Ames Research Center. "Fresh water on Mars begins to boil at 10 °C. Here on Earth we can have water anywhere between 0 and 100 °C -- that range is reduced by a factor of ten on Mars.It wouldn't boil, it would immediately freeze due to the very cold day time highs of minus 80C.The above answers about Mars air pressure being low and causing water to boil are correct. Like water boiling at 75 degrees up Mt Everest and it taking 10 minutes to cook an egg instead of three. The water is boiling, but it is only 75 degrees, not 100. Mars is...... - 2009-07-04

» Is there anything wrong with getting a tattoo when I'm 14?
i plan on getting a tattoo for my grandfather when he passes, is it bad if i get one at 14? will getting a tattoo at 14 ruin it when i get older? There are so many things wrong with that. For starters, you still have a lot growing left. You have no clue how your body will stretch or grow, so the tattoo is almost guaranteed to distort from your growing. Another equally important factor is that it is ILLEGAL, with or without parental consent, to get a tattoo at the age of 14, anywhere within the United States. Anyone willing to tattoo you is also probably willing to break several other rules/laws, such as sterilization (which could lead to infections or worse). They are also probably unskilled or lesser skilled artists. Just wait till you are...... - 2009-07-04
» Why Do You Think English Fans Aren't Allowed To Stand At Games?
Not sure if anyone has read the FLA report:- http://www.flaweb.org.uk/docs/thefla/anrep.php But they still seem obsessed with getting every fan to sit inside stadiums despite the fact millions around the world stand at games with no problems. We have the strictest rules anywhere in the world, I understand that hillsborough caused massive changes and I'm glad it did but how can they compare hillsborough to what our stadiums are like now, all seater, well stewarded, better organized no fences etc....

» Who were the people against the Industrial Revolution?
I know one of the groups were called the Luddites. Who were the other group? Thanks! The people against the Industrial Revolution were basically the working class. They were severely mistreated and received terrible wages for dangerous working conditions. A small percentage of these American workers became socialists and called for greater government intervention in the economy. The majority of the working class, however, got organized into what became known as unions. These unions were: National Trades Union - Welcomed workers from all crafts (pre-revolution, died out in 1837) The Knights Of Labor - (formed in 1869) Goal was to organize all laborers into a single union. Included men, women, farmers, workers, shop keepers, office ...... - 2009-07-04

» If Gm were to rid themselves of the Opel, Vauxhall, Holden and Saturn brands how much money would they save?
GM essentially stopped making the Saturn a couple of years ago and closed the Spring Hill, Tennessee factory. What they sell now under the Saturn nameplate is the Opel (which by the way is essentially the same as the Vauxhall) or, in the case of their large SUV, a Chevy. Holden has managed to remain a bit more independent but you can buy one of their cars under the Pontiac name. So they've already saved money by consolidating. There's not much more place to go to save any more.Nope, they don't save. Research how much it cost GM to axe Oldsmobile.

» Exposure for Scene with Spotlights
Question: Say I want to shoot something at night that is basically lit up by huge, super bright spotlights. For example, an outdoor hockey rink. I want to shoot the overall scene, which includes the lights themselves. So how do I expose the whole scene properly without having burnt-out lights? Spot meter the lights with a slower shutter to let in ambient light? I'm confused.If you meter on the lights, everything else is going to be way, way dark. Expose the shot for the subjects you want to be properly exposed. In this case, that means the spotlights are probably going to be pretty badly blown. If the scene lends itself to such, you could try using a neutral density graduated filter (ND grad). It'll tone the spotlights down a bit bu...... - 2009-07-04

"Fresh water on Mars begins to boil at 10 °C. Here on Earth we can have water anywhere between 0 and 100 °C -- that range is reduced by a factor of ten on Mars.It wouldn't boil, it would immediately freeze due to the very cold day time highs of minus 80C.The above answers about Mars air pressure being low and causing water to boil are correct.

i plan on getting a tattoo for my grandfather when he passes, is it bad if i get one at 14? will getting a tattoo at 14 ruin it when i get older? There are so many things wrong with that. For starters, you still have a lot growing left. You have no clue how your body will stretch or grow, so the tattoo is almost guaranteed to distort from your growing. Another equally important factor is that it is ILLEGAL, with or without parental consent, to get a tattoo at the age of 14, anywhere within the United States. Anyone willing to tattoo you is also probably willing to break several other rules/laws, such as sterilization (which could lead to infections or worse).

» Component or S-Video
How can I maximize XBMC for my HD-LCD. When I use component cables and set my LCD type to NTSC 16x9, alot of videos hang and I get a double screen. I was using the buikd from 11/13/06. Do I need to upgrade to a new SVN? Any help is greatly appreciated. This just doesn't look good using S-Video. ThanksSwitch to 720p if your TV supports it. 1080i upscaling is a bit too much for the xbox (unless encoded in a certain way I think). 720p looks great anyway. J_K_M_A_Nbidzer, sounds like you have not enabled 720p mode. When done you can select 720p output instead of NTSC 16x9 which is only 720 by 480 linesIf you've changed to NTSC (using a video switcher program), you should then be able to boot to the Microsoft dashboard and choose ...... - 2009-07-04

My sister is 15 now and is wanting to date and party and drink. I have been threatening the boys. I'm a senior atthe school so I have some authority but I don't how I can make her hangout with better ppl who can make good decisions?You can't. It's all part of growing up, pal.Is there a local "Scared Straight" program that tours teens through prisons where prisoners tell them what life is REALLY like when you make the worst choices? If so, sign your sister up and go with her, to make sure she goes. As you're taking the tour, tell her point blank, "we're doing this because this is where you're going to end up if you don't start hanging out with better people and making better decisions." The bottom ...... - 2009-07-04
» Help with menu tute
For two days I've been trying to get the sliding menu to work. Can someone please look at this file and help me figure out what's wrong. I've redone it a bazillion times and can't get it to work. Can anyone suggest a different tutorial that can load a bunch of pics with that nice motion/easing. I'm not very AS savvy. Thanks in advance!Where did you get this tutorial from? If you have a link I would like to look at it. One thing I noticed right away is that you are using button instances when the coding clearly calls for movie clip instances....... - 2009-07-04
» Firms focus on travelers for pandemic readiness
Firms focus on travelers for pandemic readiness Source: Reuters "Organizations with distributed, global workforces want to be as prepared as they can be for the potential of pandemic, said Dr. Myles Druckman, vice president of Medical Assistance for International SOS, a company that helps international firms deal with emergencies. By Maggie Fox, Health and Science Correspondent WASHINGTON, March 14 (Reuters) - Fewer than half of international companies doing anything about a possible bird flu pandemic are stockpiling protective equipment such as masks and gloves, according to a survey released on Tuesday. Instead, they are focused on tracking employees who travel, helping workers protect their health and ...... - 2009-07-04
» Exposure for Scene with Spotlights
Question: Say I want to shoot something at night that is basically lit up by huge, super bright spotlights. For example, an outdoor hockey rink. I want to shoot the overall scene, which includes the lights themselves. So how do I expose the whole scene properly without having burnt-out lights? Spot meter the lights with a slower shutter to let in ambient light? I'm confused.If you meter on the lights, everything else is going to be way, way dark. Expose the shot for the subjects you want to be properly exposed. In this case, that means the spotlights are probably going to be pretty badly blown. If the scene lends itself to such, you could try using a neutral density graduated filter (ND grad). It'll tone the spotlights down a bit bu...... - 2009-07-04
» Pembroke Welsh Corgis puppies with tails?
I have 2 Pembroke Welsh Corgis who came with papers (not AKC though). They had a litter and most of the puppies had long tails like Cardigan Welsh Corgis! I'm talking full length tails. We didn't have any of them docked. Is it possible there was a Cardi mixed in one of my dogs despite their papers?Both kinds of Corgi, Pem and Cardi, can have tails. Some Pems are born naturally docked but most are docked at a very young age. The two Corgi tails are quite different. I have seen 4 or 5 Pembroke Corgis with full tails, and the tails are curved slightly over the back and slightly feathered, like a Spitz. Cardigans have straighter tails that are more like a bottle brushes. It's completely possible. Any bad breeder can lie a...... - 2009-07-04
» Hindi/Urdu in Mandrake Linux
Dear all I have installed MandrakeLinux 10 on my laptop. But the KDE Control centre (its KDE 3.2 and not 3.3 in Mandrake 10) does not allow to add any other language. I could however add the default keyboards for Devanagari and Arabic (that should serve for Urdu as well I think). But in OOo writer, despite enabling complex script support (Tool->Options->languages) it is unable to type Unicode Urdu or Hindi. The Kchar tool seems to show as if all the fonts available by default are Unicode and have all character sets. Are no fonts available for Hindi and Urdu? How can we install Unicode .ttf, and also where to add the keyboard. There is Phonetic Urdu keyboard available with us at urdu_computing Yahoo group.

The three-day conference will also discuss the increase of stockpiling antiviral drugs.

» PLEASE HELP my boyfriend..Can you get blisters on your penis from having intercourse? or is it just a disease?
You can and they might be herpes which is a disease. You may want to tell you boy friend to get to a doctor ad have the blisters tested for herpes and don't have sex while he has those things, you don't know for sure they could be.First time? Look, in your local supermarket you can buy a plastic bottle of water soluble lubrication Which is ideal for every sexual encounter he may have for the rest of his life. It's about $10. Use it generously all over his pecker but when the blisters go when he is to be involved in playful sex again. It will be too sore for him to start any earlier. Eros is a brand nam that I prefer and it is probably available at the local sex shop if not the supermarket. Pharmacists carry these lines as w...... - 2009-07-04
» How many world Cups would the UK have won in WC if they counted as one nation[R]
Think about it. Add George Best to England's 60's teams. Add Roy Keane and Giggs to this World Cup and 1998. I think the UK would have won at least 2 world cups if they competed as one team. How many do you people think?Roy Keane is Irish - not part of the UK. I don't think the England team would do much better ... doesn't England cover something like 80% of the UK population anyway?ok maybe i should just shut up and go home thenIt's impossible to say, but really, if you added in the other three countries, England wouldn't really have improved by enough to make a difference in any World Cup. The possible exception would be 1970, if you factored in the phenomenal crop of Scotsmen that won Celtic the European Cup in the late 60's, but even...... - 2009-07-04
» Are Americans too caught up in the white / black dichotomy?
Like when they talk about "racial issues", they mostly only talk about whites and blacks, and they forget about everyone else? Heck there are thousands of ethnicities in the world. yup, they really are how do you pronounce dichotomy? is it die-caw-doh-me?Yes, Americans are too caught up in the white/black dichotomy, but that is only because many blacks refuse to let the issue drop and actually assume responsibility for their lives. Instead they continue to blame whites and racism for problems and situations that they face. Playing the race card has become a valuable tool for many blacks and this will only stop when we stop being politically correct as a nation. Yes, yes, what happened to the blacks in this country was horrible, but in...... - 2009-07-04
