» Gears of war 2 limited edition?

Gears of war two came out a while ago and im very anxious to buy it. I have one doubt though. what is the difference between the normal edition and the limited edition. And do you think limited edition is worth it? thanks. Good question. I have the limited edition version. I believe it is better to just buy the normal version. Limited edition comes with a 40 page picture book of screenshots, a picture of dom and maria, a dvd of the making of, and a steelbook case. You also get a gold lancer, but since it is only online and you usualy change weapons, it is no big deal. Buy the normal version and save $15.The Limited Ed. has a Steelbook(tm) case, a DVD with footage of the game being made and a gold in-game (online only) lancer rifle. I'd...... - 2009-07-03

» Conceieded friend...?

My friend Katie is really conceided but she tries to hide it and act like she doesn't think she's pretty. She says stuff like "Elyse says i'm prettier than her but i'm, NOT! She's so pretty and i'm not prettier than her!" and she says that so people will call her pretty! Also she always tries to get the conversation about her and her "experience" with guys and tries to make it seem like i haven't done anything! I can't not be friedns with her...what can i do????ugh i have a friend just like that. what you should do is be straight up and tell her either to stop being so conceited and annoying or your not going to be friends with her anymore. if she really wanted to be you friend she would stop being s...... - 2009-07-03

» Trying infrared film

Hi I'm wondering weather I should go and try out infrared film. I saw some pictures done with this kinf of film and the sky turned out black while the clouds remain white. How does this infrared technique work? What kind of influence does it have? I also heard about the fact that it's rather difficult in use... Any information is welcome! ThanksThere are a couple older threads talking about IR, either here or in the General section. Try a search first and see if you come up with anything. All I really know is you need to use a #25 red filter I think.If you are curious about a film, of course you should go try it! :D IR film can be a joy. Don't be intimidated.

» Which group portrays themselves best (and worst) in this section Xtians/Muslims/Atheists ?

I'm an atheist, but I realise that some atheists (myself included) can come across a bit pompous, although to the same scale as some of the Xtians in here. Whereas we have far fewer Muslims in this section, but people like Aashiq_Al_Rasul always seem to conduct themselves well, and portray their religion pretty well.I would have to say the Christians. I know what you mean about some of the atheists coming over as being pompous, but I think the Christians win the gold medal on that one!I think the Christians who don't really know their own faith too well seem quite ignorant. It really doesn't help if they don't know how to spell either. This may be a sweeping generalisation but most atheists on YA tend to be able t...... - 2009-07-03

» Multiple Selected Items in ControlList?

Is there any way to return multiple selected items in a control list? I'm looking for something similar to what can be done in the XBMC file manager where you can select several non-contiguous items by clicking the Y button on the controller. Thanks in advance.to highlight them you would need some trickery. maybe some separate image controls to overlay on top. then keep track of the marked items from the onAction() event. It can be done, but the control itself does not support it.Actually wouldnt you have to know the current scroll value to calculate the absolute screen position? I dont think there is a way to get that. Really there should just be a color field on ListItem.you could use a thumb image to keep track of what has been...... - 2009-07-03

Last Wednesday 9-14-05 , I was out trying to catch some of the wind gust and lightning north of Tulsa . While reviewing some tape I found a moment that made it look like I stopped the tape then drove backwards and restarted the tape capturing the moment twice. Caused from a lightning strike ahead of me. This is the first time I've had this happen and there has been strikes closer unless this one had one above me I didn't see at the same time.

Hi, First time user of the plumbing side of this forum. I have water coming into my basement from where the drain pipe from my sink goes into the concrete slab. I usually see the water a couple of days after an especially heavy rain. Any thoughts on how I can seal around the pipe? Also would a sump pump be a good alternative? PS I have the lawn slopped away from the house in this corner so I'm sure I'm not sourcing water from there. ThanksI'd say you're a prime candidate for a sump pump. It's not that difficult of a DIY'er project but hiring a pro to do isn't a bad idea either.Buddy told me $3,000-5,000 for a sump pump installed by a plumber. Ouch!!!

» Olympus Pen EES

I just found this old camera while visiting with my mom. Apparently my dad bought it in Japan while stationed there during the Viet-Nam war. I did some research on it today, and it seems to be a very good little camera. It shoots any 35mm film, but 2 photos per 1 negative. Each shot is 1/2 the size of the full negative. It's has a fast little 2.8 Zuiko lens. I'm curious if any of you have run into this camera before, and if so, I was wondering about filters for it. According to the manual, which I found online, there are screw in filters available, but it doesn't say what size. If anyone knows, and knows whether or not I can use any old filter, assuming it's the right size, that'd be great. I'd love to get some color filters and ...... - 2009-07-03

i just graduated and im 18. if i go to flight school and get my private pilots license, what the next step and how many hours do i need. how much money am i going to need to get through all the schoolingThe amount of money you'll need to get through schooling depends very much on how quickly you learn. Airplane rental costs are at LEAST $80/hour these days (for a decent airplane) + another $40 or so for the instructor. If you're having difficulty with something and need a few extra hours in the airplane you're talking $120 for each additional hour.

Hey guys. As im upgrading to a DSLR soon I need to get upto speed with everything to do with SLR photography. When a lense says eg. 18-55mm on it. Does the 18 part mean that thats how far from the sensor the lense starts, and the 55mm part means that the lense is 55mm long ?

» How does atmospheric pressure change with height in the atmosphere?why does it change?

The atmospheric pressure reduces with height.The reason is given below. Air has weight.The weight or force exerted by the air on unit area of a surface is termed as pressure.The pressure of the atmosphere at any level is thus defined as the weight of the overlying column of air over unit area at that level.As you go up the length of this air column becomes less and hence the weight of the air column also becomes less.So the pressure also becomes less.Thus the atmospheric pressure decreases with height.Let's start with the basics. The atmosphere is composed of a mixture of gases of varying weights. These gases, while you may not notice it in everyday activity, do have mass. The atmospheric pressure is, basically, the weight of all ...... - 2009-07-03

» When making antenna out of wire, does curling it affect the outcome?

When making antenna out of wire, does curling it affect the outcome? I want to make an antenna out of wire. It's a 433 MHz Antenna used for RF. The wire is made out of components of a cat-5 (Ethernet) cable. Instead of leaving the wire straight out, can I just curl it? Curling it does have an effect. What it does is change the inductance. The effect of this is to change the resonance point of the antenna. In other word, to get it to resonate on the same frequency you would have to shorten the antenna. It also has an effect on the aperture of the antenna. A shorter antenna does not 'cut' the same amount of field and so the induced voltage is lower. In other words, a shorter antenna is not as good as a full length antenna...... - 2009-07-03
