Please tell me about Linux. I am locked out of Windows XP PRO by error message 0x80090019.
My copy of Windows XP is registered and valid but I cannot logon, not even in safe mode. If I install Linux on my unused partition, will I be able to access files and pictures I created using Windows XP? Is it even possible?

How do I do the installation? I don’t even know where to purchase Linux or what it cost.

I am looking to get a home owners policy with Homesite. They require a 25% down payment and monthly payments. I am thinking I might want to change policies in 2 or 3 months. If I cancel will I be charged anything beyond the monthly cost, ie a termination or set up fee.
I looked for info on the web site, but they don't have contract details on there.

The simularities between the names is just uncanny. Could we ever trust him? Think about it.

He was raised a muslim, now he is a Christian (he says). He has lived in the middle east (home of Al Quida) and now he wants to be president of the USA.

I think there is something weird about it.

Point 1: In an interview with GOP leaders in South Carolina, CNN reported that the GOP base is dispirited and depressed. Things have not improved for them since the 2006 elections. In fact, they are continuing to lose interest. They said that the ONLY thing they can think of that might energize their base would be Hillary winning the Democratic nomination.

Point 2: All head-to-head polls on RealClearPolitics.com show Obama and Edwards having a stronger showing against Guiliani, McCain, Romney, or Thompson than Hillary gets.

I know it's early, but the GOP hatred for Hillary isn't going to go away. Isn't it clear that the best thing Hillary could do for America is to drop out and let someone who DOESN'T energize the GOP and who has a better chance of winning the national election carry the ball?

I'm doing an experiment where I am growing 10 radish seeds each in 5 germination bags (plastic bags) with each lined with Paper Towel. There has to be 5 levels of the independent variable and I chose the pH level of the water on the paper towels. But how do you get different pH levels of the water? The control will be the bag with water with a pH level of 7.

Seems most recent (roughly last 10-15 years) horror films aren't as scary anymore.

Plenty of *gore*, yes. Actually *scary*, suspenseful & creepy- Not as much. Gore is easy. Any writer or director can do bloody.

I think a few things need to change:

-Stop using well known faces in them. When we see someone like Halle Berry or J-Lo up there pretending to be frightened, we tend to think- "Hey. it's Halle Berry!" Not someone we might know.

-Get Hollywood out of the picture. I think truly scary horror would be better coming from indie film makers. If it's too big budget, it'll be chockful of bad CGI & larger than life special FX. All boils down to unbelievable.

These are among the reasons why I thought the Blair Witch Project was pretty damn original.

Also, enough zombie flicks. We get it. The only recent ones that had a great, original spin on the old zombie thing was '28 Days' & the sequel. (Remake of Dawn of the dead wasn't bad either)
(running outta room)

Your thoughts?

Joseph Smith stated that without the ordinances and authority of the priesthood no man can see the face of God and live (D & C 84:21, 22). He also said that he saw God in 1820 (Joseph Smith 2:17). Joseph Smith, however, never received any priesthood until 1829 (D&C 13). How did he see God and survive? In which was he in error: his revelation in D & C 84:21, 22 or his experience in the grove?

I am reposting for more ideas...

I recently found out that I am having another girl! I have 2 already Ariana Lisette (9) and Victoria Renee (8)
My name is Alana Mia (Mia means mine in spanish)
I am looking for a different name to use as a middle or possible first name. I like the name Araceli but am not sure that it will fit her yet. I am mexican and he is mexican, black, & white. Please nothing to common like Maria (although that is my mom's middle name) lol


I just heard from my cousin that this little girl came into school one day and one of the lunch mothers commented on how pretty she was and asked her name.
Her name was Diablanca...which when I first heard it I thought OK that's different but when I heard y she was named that I thought it was such a cute idea. She is mixed and he explained that Diabla (devil in spanish) mixed with Blanca (white) made her his little white devil!

If anyone has any ideas like that (mixed spanish words) let me know

Thanks in advance
