I've read that when in the process of making home made ice cream we use salt to lower the temperature of the ice. I understand it lowers the temperature of the ice sunstantially.
My Question:
Will salt water or brine freeze in a home freezer?

Will it reach a lower temperature?....and would that ice melt more slowly at room temperature than ice made of pure water?

I'm in a difficult situation at the moment. I have been going out with a girl I really like for the past 6 months. We get on really well and we have talked about moving out and are due to go on holiday next month.

The thing is my so called best friend has gone really weird over this. I have known him for ages and before I met my girlfriend we used to go out drinking every weekend however we both got tired of this. He is continually complaining saying I never do anything anymore, even though I make a point of seeing him at least once a week. But recently I have become really fed up with his behaviour, he has gotten a job in Switzerland and I am pleased for him but he now slates me and everybody I know for still living in their home town and having s**t jobs. Yesterday he asked me to do something but I was having a family meal to which he again said I never do anything anymore even though I saw him last Friday. Not sure what to do, as he is testing my patience, my girlfriend

says he is being childish. My parents say he is jealous and my sisters think he is not being a very good friend and to ignore him. Whilst I value all of their opinions part of me doesn't want to lose contact with him but another part of me thinks I may be better off without him but feel guilty for thinking this. Any advice?

I am going to make a small shed and I need to know how to square it. I know that if you measure down one side a certain distance and down the other side a certain distance that your hypotumus will equal a certain distance. It is something like this ,,, 2ft 4 ft = 6 feet is that correct for the hypotumus. Are there other measurement for larger rooms that follow the same pattern.

Thanks ,,, sorry for being so wordy

Hello, ive been suffering from constipation and lower back pain for about 6 months.
I think they are related. I don't know what to do!
IT hurts really bad. I had just seen my doctor 2 months ago, she said to drink prune juice with every meal. I do that and it doesn't work, I told my doctor that a week ago and she said to continue drinking prune juice.
I don't get it. It really doesn't work.The only way i go is with a laxative.And it still doesn't work fully. I'm tring not to take laxatives because i don't want to be addicted. I go like once every 6 or 7 days with a laxitive.
Can someone help me? I'm only 17 years old, I don't want to deal with lower back pain with constipation anymore?
Thanks

The d@mned trolls are pushing all the good un's out! I got deleted, I may be a little saucy but is that a criminal offence? The Big Cheese has had enough and left. Good on him, but I'll miss the hilarious nutter!

Please leave any messages of good wishes to anyone whom you knew that got deleted or that'd had enough. Will you do that?

"Why of course, the people don't want war...But, after all, it is the leaders of the country that determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a Democracy or a Fascist Dictatorship or a Parliment or a Communist Dictatorship....Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them that they are being attacked and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and are exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country".

I think that it is disgraceful and would certainly never take young children onto a plane especially since this flight was delayed and it is no wonder that the child was a little boisterous and chatty.

AIW9800 Pro Graphics Card Question.

Last week all was working fine, running the above graphics card with an Antec 300w Smart Power PSU.... Then the power supply popped and it was time for a new PSU.

As this was just a back up computer I (foolishly) went cheap, and boutht a 350W Colour IT PSU.

Ever since I have had no end of problems. I keep getting the red text appear on screen asking me to attach power to the card, along with a series of beeps! This does not happen all the time, occasionally the machine powers up and all is fine for the day.

My initial thoughts are that the PSU is not providing enough power to the card. Does this seem about right? Would I be far better biting the bullet and ordering in a named brand?

I will be testing this theory out later when I take the machine home and attach it to my neo power supply, if it works then then I have pretty much answered my own question, but would appreciate any thoughts in the mean time.

Regards
Tony
