My computer does not automatically restart itself when I click on the restart computer button after installing a new program? I have to do it manually through the start menu. I have ZoneAlarm Security Suite(did scan and nothing), Spy-Bot Search&Destroy(scan and nothing), WinPatrol Plus, SpyWare Blaster, and SpyWare Guard...So I have no virus or spyware problems. Anyone have any ideas or solutions to why and how to fix my issue? It would be greatly appreciated.

Or rather, whats your mix of martial arts that work for you best and allow for your own self expression?

For me:

-Wing Chun because I love the centerline theory and deflections.
-Greco Roman wrestling from my High School
-Tang Soo Do and Tae Kwon Do for kicking as their sidekick is really easy for me to use and good for range

we eat a lot of breads, pancakes, waffles,etc in this house and i always use the healthy heart bisquick. its enriched white flour though and i would like to move more towards whole grain. i am not a big fan of baking or cooking and would want a mix like bisquick that is already ready to baking. I dont want something with 15 ingredients! anything out there? all this flax and wheat germ stuff i highly doubt my kids would eat. thanks!

Hell, if any government sold off publicly owned assets like Telstra, International airports in every capital city, and utilites like power stations, refused to substantially service the public health service and public hospitals nationwide, refused to invest in new infrastructure such adequate new highways, new dams, manufacturing industries to value add the exportation of raw minerals, and was permanently blind to our drought damaged rural industries refusing to instigate a permanent solution to their water shortage problems, then I am sure any government would look like financial genii (thats plural of genius) by saving our hard earned tax dollars (billions of them) so they can spend it on PR telling us how good they are. I believe they have part of the population fooled. They're policies may look good to share holders if this were a public company but they are lowering living standards in this country with their domestic fiscal policies. Anyone else agree?

is inflated at a rate of 14cm/s
(a) Express the radius r of the balloon as a function of the time t (in seconds). r(t)=t/14cm/s

(b) If V is the volume of the balloon as a function of the radius, find V r.

4/3pi(t/14cm/s)

not sure if that is right? do I divide t by the inflation rate?

Recently, my computer's been acting up. The screen began freezing. Now, the monitor won't get past the initial black screen and the hard disk light doesn't blink, even though I can hear the hard drive spinning. In fact, the monitor power light goes orange, indicating that it's not receiving any signal.
My bro says the montior went (I went and bought a new cheap one, still doesn't work). Other sites I've read say that it could be the power supply. My local computer store says the mother board has gone. Staples says the video card has gone. I personally think it's the motherboard. Which, if any is it?
I've already paid over $100 on useless diagnostics, so please help me if you can! I can't afford a whole new computer right now :).
