I installed 2 gig of memory in addition to the 2 gig I already had. The BIOS says I have 4 gig total but Windows says I only have 3.25 gig. Doesn't matter if I swap the old and new chipsets from slot 0 to slot 1 and vice versa. Clock speeds are all within tolerance (no overclocking).

Martha Stewart - Don't throw out all that leftover wine. Freeze into ice cubes for future use in casseroles and sauces.
Maxine - Leftover wine?? Hello!!

Martha Stewart - Cure for headaches: Take a lime, cut it in half and rub it on your forehead. The throbbing will go away.
Maxine - Take a lime, mix it with tequila, chill and drink. You might still have the headache, but who the hell cares!

Martha Stewart - Stuff a miniature marshmallow in the bottom of a sugar cone to prevent ice cream drips.
Maxine - Just suck the ice cream out of the bottom of the cone, for Pete's sake. You are probably lying on your *** on the couch, with your feet up anyway.

Martha Stewart - To keep potatoes from budding, place an apple in the bag with the potatoes.
Maxine - Buy boxed mashed potato mix and you don't have to worry about the potatoes growing arms and legs.

So, my fiancé and I are having problems trying to plan our wedding. He listed a question last night, you may want to check it out: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=Al1ZiOU8KF7B6ItvmDDjlDPE7BR.?qid=20070522215007AAqKv0N
So our problem is that his family won't all make it to the wedding, since they are in Western Canada and the timing is bad with graduations in the family or they don't have the resources to come here. And I don't want to have a wedding with my 30-40 family members and only between 4-10 of his. I will feel really awkward with that.
I'm considering a destination wedding, and only having the guest list include my parents and their significant others, my two best friends, my fiancés two best friends, his parents, his sister and her husband, and maybe grandparents, But I'm afraid my family will resent me if we do that.
I'm not opposed to my fiancés idea, but I think it's too hard to exclude my family from the wedding if it's in the same city they all live in HELP

There are many arguments for tighter immigration controls, not all of them are based on xenophobia of mexican nationals and blatant racist rhetoric. Why is it that most people use the simple, small minded arguments like "Dey'er E-Legals" instead of arguing against wage inequality? The fact is, if these farms and buisnesses had to pay immigrants the same minimum wage Americans received, they wouldn't bother employing illegal hispanic labor, because it wouldn't be profitable to do so.

I just had a m/c (D&C as well) a few weeks ago, so I've been on a roller coaster ride of emotions since then. My husband and I want to try again, however the doctor recommended we wait 3-6 months (emphasizing the 6 months). So my question is: Is it safe to take pre-natal vitamins for 3 to 6 months before even conceiving? I'm still taking them since the doctor said its okay for the iron, but I want to be sure I'm ready the next time we conceive (I've even thought of switching to the over-the-counter brand to save money during this time).

I need to write a library similar to the header file. I need help writing the following functions. They are included in my own class called "string".

void resize(unsigned int, char);
//resizes character array "Buffer" to number specified by
//first parameter
//fills extra space by the second parameter character

void insert(unsigned int, string &);
//Inserts a string into "Buffer" a character array.
//First parameter: Place to insert
//Second parameter: string to insert.


void remove(unsigned int, unsigned int);
//removes characters from "Buffer", a character array.
//First parameter : Starting position,
//Second parameter : number of characters to remove.

If you are no longer with the dad of your kids do you feel you are more important or have more rank than the new wife/gf in his eyes? Do you feel you could come between them if you wanted to? If you are a man is this true in how you feel about your childrens mother?

In other words, How to recognize the Real Brahmins, who are True Representatives of God to tell others of the ways of God ?

Remember, the conflicting scriptures can have several meanings for the same word, yet opposite in Nature ?

In this matter which interpretation of what scripture are intended by God for Us ? How to know it ? Is it something an Inward Process ? or Inward and Outward both ? or both but priority to inward ? or both but priority to outward ? or is it changing from time to time ? Like Priests of today are no more God's spokesperson for tomorrow and vice versa ?

How would a common man of lower intelligence find his own path towards Godhood among these conflicting thoughts ?

Is asking intensely to the 100 % Omnipotent, Omnipresent and Omniscient God directly the solution or is it seeking thru mediums the better policy ?

Even then who is the right one to assess the right medium and why ?

I decided to buy a betta end of this summer and so some friends of mine bought a 39 litres tank for me. However i am not sure about the size (or style: black front sealing restricts the view a bit) as i would like to buy one or two fish to keep the betta company (yes, i am aware of the limited options as the betta is territorial).
As i have never kept any fish (my flatmate has though) before i am slightly reluctant to go for a tank smaller than 50litres and at the moment think of purchasing a 100 litres tank (clearseal b shape).
however is it actually worth it?
I mean, the only "pretty to look at" fish i could keep would be the betta and the 100 litres seems a bit of a waste.
On the other hand i think the 39litres would be a bit small to inlcude 1 or 2 smaller fish or some african dwarf frogs or armano shrimps.
It would be a great help if someone who has tried both options could advise me, or suggest an option i havent considered yet.
(has to be betta, i really want one)
Thanks

After all they're just "theories".

Are they all wrong or is there some rationale to accept some but not the theory of evolution by natural selection.

And if your response consists of personal attacks on me then please don't bother.

I read an article in the current (June) issue of S.W.A.T. magazine that really is some food-for-thought, particularly for Americans, and other Westerners/Europeans. It's called 40 Reasons Why America is No Longer Free. I don't have a link to it, but I will post the text (or link) when it is available. If you don't read the mag yet, I HIGHLY suggest you begin, if you're interested in your future, and living free! Here is her link, but it does not contain the article I mention.

I know the phrase "the old-boy network", but what I want to know is when do we use "old boy / old girl" to refer to our former schoolmates? "My old boy / old girl is a famous movie star now." sounds wierd, for it will be taken as my ex-boyfriend or girlfriend for sure.

Usually when a man and woman have kids and break up/divorce, the father continues to take care of mother along with kids. When the father gets serious with someone new, he should still take care of his kids but why does the ex expect him to continue supplying HER needs? I personally think it would be an insult to the new wife. Are there other women that feel like i do or women who are the exes? how do y ou feel about this sitiuation and why would the ex expect ths and get mad when the man doesnt go along?
