First off watch the video please.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=8m8fbnShPcw

Heres another one.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TEU6Lh3H3Xw&watch_response

now judging by these two videos, it looks like it works perfectly as explained, but many youtube users left a comment stating that its a hoax or fake, on the other hand, many others says it works for them and all. one comment that caught my attention is that if you do this, it will mess up whatever is being used to play the music, ipod, computer, stereo. so now im confused. im asking electicians or professional on speakers if this really works. is there anything you have to lose on this?

heres also one more video of how it works or somebody testing it out.

if homosexuality wouldnt be discriminated anymore, then everyone wouldnt choose to be homosexual. about 10% of people are gay, it wouldnt cause population to drop. why some people think that the population would drop? and why people think that there would be more homosexuals? who is a homosexual is already in that 10% or whatever is the correct number. so then straight people will turn to homosexuals? people keep getting excuses to be against homosexuality.

I love photography, taking pictures and looking at them... I'm enrolled in a photography class which starts in a few months, so I do have some time to get a camera. But I'd like to get it before the class starts so that I can get used to it.

I had a Canon EOS 700 hand-me-down, which worked well for my other photography class, but it is broken and I'd like to upgrade.

It has to be 35mm. I need to be able to control the F-stop...SLR is a must...

Are there any cameras that use film...but show the picture on a screen? A mix of digital and film? Probably not..but it can't hurt to ask.

And price-wise... I can't spend TOO much...but I don't want the camera to be disposable cheap, so I will spend a few hundred dollars.

If you have any suggestions, please go ahead and post. :)

If someone were to tell you they were Atheist and you were trying to convert them, how would you go about it?
What would you tell them?
What proof that god is real would you provide to them?

The reason I'm asking this is because I am atheist and recently, some one attempted to convert me (unsuccessfully) to Christianity. She didn't really give any reasons why I should convert, just that I should to 'save my soul.' So I got to thinking how other people would attempt to convert Atheists.
So, tell me why I should convert!

I'm 18 on the 22nd November. I really can't be bothered with a party.

My birthday is in the middle of important exams (well important for my friends as they havn't been accepted into their University courses for next year yet). We also have prize giving and other school functions around this time.

After that we have holidays and I'm going overseas.

Everyone tells me that I should have an 18th, but I had a big 17th and it was a lot of effort to organise.

Is it ok to not bother?

At the end of the 2nd week I was forced to go to the doctor she was wanting to admit me in the hospital and I refused to go I do need to work. To week later I had to have more chest x-rays to confirm that I still have pneumonia. Now this is the 6th week and I am still sick.

This is the most strangest illness I have ever had in my life. I didnt get fluid in my lungs so I wast coughing up flem. So I didnt think anything about it.

I am not old only 48 and I am a type 2 diabetic

Does anyone anything about this pnumoina and why I have had it so long?

Which one is the bigger epidemic really? Teenagers having unwanted pregnancys or adults having unwanted pregnancys?

I kind of feel that adult unwanted pregnancy maybe a bigger problems then teenagers pregnancy. I think that grown people probably end up with more issue then teenagers do. DNA testing, alimony ect. I think that teenage pregnancy is more publized. Just because you're a "grown adult" doesn't mean you're any better off.

Thoughts?

I can fine the white Brach jelly nougats with the dried fruit in them. But these candies were soft, half pink, half white. Some called them "Frenchies". I have found some similar online but they are all from Britain.
