I bought a HP laptop and I need to take it to China this summer with me. I went to a luggage store in St. Catharines and purchased a converter kit with 4 plugs and an adaptor. I realized though that the plugs in the kit only support 2 prongs (no ground plugs). My laptop has a ground pin and i can't put it's cord into the converters. Given that laptops are used for business travel alot, does anyone know where or how I can buy a proper converter? I need my laptop to work there and I need to not blow it up in the process. I live in the Niagara region, any help here would be SOOOO appreciated!

...do you remember what Anthony Hopkins told Antonio Banderas "a gentleman" was? I believe the line began, "A gentleman is only..."

All I remember is that it was a GREAT line. BTW, I already checked the Internet Movie Database, and that particular quote was not included.

this is to all the people who like to add Gate to the end of any "Scandal". Its funny to see people huff and puff and call for the Attorney Generals resignation for firing 8 US attorneys, yet Janet Reno was ordered by President Clinton to fire all 93 US attorneys in a heartbeat back in 93'... i dont recall a massive uproar... let alone a single day of coverage.... clean slate right.... ..

My mom wants me to get a 64-bit processor laptop, but what I've heard is that 64-bit's aren't compatible with many games. So i told her I want a 32-bit. She says that since there are 2 kinds and what I understand after she screamed at me, that because 64-bit is a higher number, that 32-bit processors will soon be taken over by them. And that, if I do get a 32-bit that everything will soon be compatible for only 64-bits.

Is this true, cause I don't believe her, because XP is still being made for both 32-bit and 64-bit processors. And if 64-bits were taking over 32-bits then why would they make a vista 64-bit AND a 32-bit and why would NEW computers have 32-bit or 64-bit processors if 64-bit was "The way of the future"?

I just don't get it. Could ya help me out?

When I was younger (in HS) I was so strong in my faith and so sure of what I believed in. Through the years, especially college, I've noticed that my religious beliefs have changed and I'm no longer on the same wave length as I once was. Is this a normal thing for people to go through? Sometimes I don't understand how people can be so strong with what they believe (especially when it comes to religion) and some people are so confident in bevieng nothing at all. I'm sick of believing in something just because society says I should or that it's what I was raised with...

So my question is, What do you believe in? Why do you believe it?

My cooking skills consist of making hamburger helper. lol I might not be able to fry a pork chop, or bake a chicken, but I can make every type of hamburger helper available in the grocery store. This is what I live off of. That and sandwiches and Ramen noodles. I have tried watching the food network but some of that stuff is too complicated for me. I just want to learn the basic stuff. I grew up never really having to cook because my Grandmother and mom always do but I have now moved away from home, am in another city, and on my own as far as cooking goes. I do try recipes out of cookbooks but none of what I make seems to taste quite right to me. Do any of you have any simple recipes? I am a very simple person when it comes to eating and not picky at all. My favorite dishes are with chicken and I am a pasta fanatic. Any easy recipes or tips on easy dishes are greatly appreciated. :-)

You fill up me senses like a night in a forest
Like the mountains in springtime, like a walk in the rain
Like a storm in the desert, like a sleepy blue ocean
You fill up my senses come fill me again.

Come let me love you, let me give my life to you
Let me drown in your laughter, let me die in your arms
Let me lay down beside you, let me always be with you
Come let me love you, come love me again.


are we all singing now ?
I hope so
isn't music just awesome...
what songs make you warm and fuzzy ?

When you think about it alot of people live that way every day and have done so for all of time. Hitting someone who is about to hit you - nailing them and rendering them incapable of hurting you in any way. Of course you have to prove it or make it look plausible that they were indeed going to. Look what happened when this was not used - there has not been another attack inside the US since this policy was carried out.

If the bill passes the rich who hire illegals will no longer be able to threaten the illegals with the INS! Gee guess they will pay better wages or find new illegals.

Bush is pretty mad that it didn't pass...

Will his Republican Lemmings help it pass
if its given another voting chance on the floor?

Remember Republican Lemmings...
Bush is FURIOUS that it didn't pass...

What are you going to do to ease
his anger so he doesn't sob in public like
Republican Paris Hilton & Republican Boneher?

*Before you answer...how do I know Paris is a Republican?
She'd be fool to be a Democrat with the tax cuts Bush is
giving her...right?

Any other combinations like baking soda and vinegar that either make things pop a bit or have a slight firecracker-like effect? I've heard something about sugar and aluminum foil.

The equation relating approximate barometric pressure (P, in torr) to altitude(h, in m) is at room T:

lnP = 6.63-(h8000)

Diethyl ether, CH3CH2OCH2CH3, a common organic solvent has a normal boiling point at 34.6 degrees C (and thus vapor pressure of 760 torr at 34.6 C). at 20 degrees C, it has a vapor pressure of 440 torr. At what approximate altitude will diethyl ether boil at 20 C? Where on the earth would it be a problem to keep this solvent liquid?
