I have about a 750MB .dv movie that was created on a Mac and plays perfectly on a Mac; however, it will not play properly on my PC. In Quicktime, about 10-30 seconds will play until the video stops, but even those 10-30 seconds are very, very poor quality. I tried it in VLC, and the quality is fine there, but the video stops after about 15 seconds (and I cannot fast forward or anything, either). Is my PC just a piece of junk and cannot handle the file size or format, or is there something I am doing incorrectly? Would converting the file to another format? If so, are there any free programs? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated -- thanks!

Am I the only one who is having a hard time finding a candidate to support based on the current choices available? While I can find something to support in almost every candidates purported platform, none of them offer enough substance for me to throw my support behind them wholeheartedly. Are these politicians truly the best that America has to offer? Is there anyone you would like to see announce their candidacy who has yet to do so? In your opinion, are their any politicians out there who are truly for the people? I don't care what their political affiliation is, as long as they have the best interests of America, and her citizens at heart.

Ugh. I hate HTML. BBcode is so much nicer to me.

Anyway. I was wondering what the HTML equivalent of:

[url=URLHERE]TEXTHERE[/url] <-...that is.

Or how to do that on LiveJournal. (Which is confusing me. -.-")

Like i'm talking REALLY bored. And stuck at home for the next 4 whole days, without civilization. Any suggestions? Preferably something amusing/entertaining.

Here is a list of thing that I CANNOT DO:
-listen to music; ipod is dead, speakers are blown
-watch a movie on DVD; we have no DVD's purchased
-Clean; the house is spotless
-Text; no more minutes on my phone
-Computer has a virus; so my Myspace is unbelievably slow. And I do not have AIM downloaded since this is not MY computer; it's a relatives.

any OTHER suggestions would be nice though.
Thanks! :)

why does apple inc. use such a ridiculous naming convention? why are all of their product names preceded by an "i" (lower case for no explicit reason). for example: iPod, iPhone, iMac, and even proprietary software like iPhoto and iTunes etc.

I feel that that only course of action now, that we are so far from the intent of the Constitution,is armed rebellion.The whole system that our fore fathers gave us has been hijacked by the the Socialists,Globalists,Homosexuals,Muslim threat,and the Federal Reserve.In a nut shell ,if we,who are pure in the understanding and belief of the Constitution,are to enact the change that is necesary to the original intent of our Fore Fathers then pick up your weapons because the war is about to start.Do not be blind to the religion of "Tolerance" for it will destroy us all.I have no problem of tell the alphabet agencies to kiss my ***.Bring it on.
How many of you are willing to make the sacrifice that our Fore Fathers did?Our way of life and our decendants future depends on YOUR willingness to give up your comfort and status to ensure their freedom.The time for TRUE BATTLE is at hand.The war shall start.My honor as an American and Veteran will no longer be impuned by cowardice.God Bless Us.

I noticed at the laundrymat that the water does not appear at the bottom of the window, it only rises just below - presumably filling a basin below that the perforated washer chamber / cylnder spins thru. I know that they've had a problem with patrons putting in too much soap and causing an overflow. I'm wondering if they are reducing the water level in the washer to combat that problem (and cut down on their costs for water and hot water - very cheap place)?

I used the laundrymat today and my clothes seem to be clean and free of soap (the rinse cycle is the same "low water" situation); so maybe the washer is not designed to have water at the height of the door?

i used to be funny, happy, etc.

i've been alone in the house for my whole summer vacation, my parents and brother are here, but we barely ever talk to eachother. now i feel i'm just an annoyance to everyone, everything would be better if i could just move somewhere and start over, new, but i'm too young for that. i hate how i've changed and i hate myself, i dont want to feel this way, i dont know what to do, i've been having terrible dreams and my life is just so worthless, i get texts from friends and reply but i feel like im just boring them, and my replies are not anything worth actually reading. i cant talk to anyone, my mom always calls me bad names, shes a good mom, but it just kills me that she can call me those things with acting like she means them. no one likes me, people would like me more if i were dead, but i cant kill myself knowing things might get better, i dont know what to do, i have no close friends, most of my friends were my friends because i was funny, but now

Ok so I'm having a party and the theme is to dress like a celebrity. We invited a lot of people in our grade. I was soo excited about it until we actually sent out the invitations. When the rsvps came in (or didn't come in) I got super nervous. Not many girls rsvp and only 2 boys did. If I could I would cancel the party right now. I'm getting really scared. What do I do! Help!

When Will Stuff Come Out on Obama?




RUSH: Janet in... Godley, Illinois?

CALLER: (Laughs)

RUSH: Is that really Godley, Illinois?

CALLER: Yes, it is.

RUSH: Well, Janet, welcome to the program.

CALLER: Thank you. I am so excited about talking to you, and I'm so nervous. I wanted to talk about a different aspect of Obama's candidacy. No one has touched on his very far left stance on social issues such as abortion, and there was an incident here in Illinois about seven years ago, at Christ Hospital -- a suburban hospital to Chicago -- where babies who were born alive after a botched abortion, were left to die in linen closets and a nurse exposed it, and she was of course fired, and there were demonstrations, and it led the Illinois legislature to formulate the Infants Born Alive Act, which stated that infants who were born alive as the result of a botched abortion, could not be left to die, and Barack Obama voted against it.

RUSH: May I stop you right there?

CALLER: Yes.

RUSH: Don't lose your train of thought.

CALLER: Okay.

RUSH: What does it say about the state of Illinois and the country in general, when such a law is required?

CALLER: Yes, I know. It is very sad.

RUSH: A baby born alive in a botched abortion can't be killed!

CALLER: Right.

RUSH: (Gags.)

CALLER: I know. It's pretty sick.

RUSH: Okay, what did Obama do?

CALLER: He voted against that act. He went on rerecord and voted against a law to protect those children.

RUSH: Well, I’m sure he had a reason! What was it?

CALLER: You know, I could not for the life of me tell you. I'm sure it was to protect the right of the woman to choose.

RUSH: It is that, but I'll tell you what it is? There is something corrupting about the Democrat Party. Do you know that both Bill Clinton and Al Gore were pro-liers?

CALLER: No, I did not know that.

RUSH: Yeah, they were. When you seek national office in the Democrat Party, one of the first things you have to do is cash in that chip, and you have to pay homage to the sacrament of the religion of that party which is abortion. You don’t' stand a prayer of getting the nomination in the Democrat Party if you do anything that would make any abortion harder to accomplish or to get done. So that's Obama. It's clear to me he had national aspirations at the time, then he did not want to do anything that would anger the NAGs and the militant feminists, and the general leftists in the party.

CALLER: Right. I think that should be publicly known during this campaign, how far, far left he is.

RUSH: This stuff will all come out. I'm going to tell you something. Aside from the most-informed audience in media, which is you and everybody else listening to this program, most people really start paying attention to this stuff after Thanksgiving, when the primaries start.

CALLER: Mmm-hmm.

RUSH: I'll give you a great example. At this time in 2004 on the Democrat side, who was all the hullabaloo about?

CALLER: Ummmm, was it John Kerry?

RUSH: No, it was Howard Dean.

CALLER: Okay.

RUSH: It was Howard Dean. He was raising all this money, and why he was raising all this money, and why he's collecting more money than anybody ever knew existed out on the Internet! He's setting new examples for everybody to follow! Howard Dean, everywhere he went, was the frontrunner. And then they had this little thing called the Hawkeye Cauci, and they actually started voting, and he was nowhere! He was nowhere. John Kerry comes out of there as the guy who wins it, and that's what launched Kerry, because they said, "Wooo! He's the guy! Look at the surprise," because everybody had assumed, because the wonks and the pundits who paid attention to this stuff and believed all the polls that are out there. Howard Dean was in exactly the same place as Hillary Clinton is.

CALLER: Mmm-hmm.

RUSH: Maybe not in fundraising, maybe not as much money, but "Presumptive nominee, only a matter of time," but most people didn't start paying attention to Howard Dean and see how weird he was until late in the year, late in November and early December. So this stuff about Obama... (sigh) I don't know that Democrats are going to bring it out about him. If he happens to get the nomination or if he's chosen to be veep, you wait. This stuff will all come out. It's just waiting, but you don't want to bring it out now. People forget about it. The timing of this kind of stuff is crucial.

1. Satellite ground operators use the feedback from a device called magnetometer, which senses the direction of Earth's magnetic field, to decide which torque coil to activate. what direction will the magnetometer read for earth's magnetic field whrn the satellite passes over earth's equator.

2. In order to protect other equipment, the body of a satellite must remain unmagnetized, even when the torque coils have been activated. Would hard or soft magnetic materials be best for building the rest of the satellite?
