It is a cavalry USB 2.0 + SATA hard drive. I have it powered up and connected to my computer through the USB 2.0. I have a Dell Latitude D620 laptop. I do not believe there are any external SATA ports.

The hard drive is supposed to be plug n play but my USB does not recognize it. Nothing happens since I have it plugged in. Do I need to have the hard drive plugged into a SATA port and a USB port? So then I would have to buy a external SATA port for my laptop.

Thanks in advance for any help.

He should not have been asked to open.I believe the team should have shown him some support in this difficult time of his.When a batsmen isn't playing well,then should you put additional responsibilities on him?Moreover,shift him to a new slot where you know he hasn't done well in the past......

What next now?Again ask him to open?Or maybe even bowl and keep wickets??Over the years we have asked him to open,bat at no.3,bat in the middle order,bat late in the order,bowl his off spin,be a wicketkeeper,be a thinking captain and he has always accepted these things gracefully but come on,when he is already in such a tough situation,why do they want to make it tougher for him??

A subdued Dravid, who needed 41 deliveries to get off the mark, never looked comfortable and was dropped by Phil Jaques in the gully and then caught by Matthew Hayden at first slip off a no-ball, both off Johnson's bowling.And he also survived a lbw shout before finally getting out.

Many a man has lost a woman because he could not control his anger, which can result in physical abuse.

And I think about the girlfriend who I am leaving after several years who cannnot comprehend that she has a problem:verbal abuse, as if I were her emotional punching bag.

I don't think a lot of woman can see how destructive it is to there relationships, that they have some God-given right to keep needling, nagging, moaning, complaining even when your a decent guy who makes good money, supports his family, and works to do the right things in life.

Have you ever been at a point where you did everything in the relationship to come up to speed, only to find a NEW laundry list of "problems"...

Your thoughts, please.

I guess every place differs, but what is the quality of life where YOU life? I'm from New Jersey. i've also lived in NY and CA. All I can say is, the quality of life somewhat sucks. You have to put up with lots and lots of people wherever you go, traffic, crowded malls, crowded movie theaters, crowded restaurants and places to dine out, lots of attitude, no respect for life.

The quality of life from my opinion feels pretty low, and sub-standard, and only the upper class and the upper-middle class can nowadays enjoy anything remotely close to luxurious in this country.

If you're not in these upper echelons, the lowest being the upper middle class, then you most likely have to struggle, put up with sub-par, trashy people, poorer living conditions and basically crap all the time.

To me, living in New Jersey is like living in hell. The people resemble demons, honestly I think they are, in human form, and the environment resembles the Styx.

NY/CA vary.

how about you guys?

I mean for the people who don’t believe, they know that people who do believe say when we die we will go to heaven

Now wouldn’t they rather just believe when they die they will go to a good place like heaven then think they are just going to rot in the ground!?!?

Background: Our 79 year old Mom does not like my 42 year old sister's MIL who is an artist. Sis's two boys are 20 and 24 years old. MIL is an artist and our Mother has always criticized her work. MIL painted portraits of Sis & Family. Sis loved them so bought & framed prints and gave to our parents for XMas.

Mom's response? In a dead, monotone voice: "We got your gift". It was clear she didn't like them and it really hurt Sis's feelings and she is so upset.

Mom has been called out numerous times for the hurtful, callous, insensitive things she says and does. By now she should know better. I'm fit to be tied over this. I told her that she hurt Sis's feelings deeply and she could at least have PRETENDED to like the gift. She should display the portraits even if SHE doesn't like them. It's her daughter, grandchildren, and son-in-law!

How should one respond to a gift they don't like, espec. from family?

Any other suggestions or comments appreciated.

Thanks!

Kepler's Second Law states that the imaginary line between any planet and the sun sweeps equal areas in equal times as it orbits the sun. If the gravitation between the sun and the planets were somehow switched off and the planets no longer followed elliptical paths, would Kepler's equal area in equal time law still hold true?

a) Yes, the Second Law would still hold, even with gravity off.

b) No, Kepler's laws relate to elliptical orbits produced by gravity. Turn off gravity and Kepler's Second Law is meaningless.

Someone was saying the only thing a criminal needs is your first and last name and they can steal your entire identity, including your social secuirty number. I find it hard to believe that the government would make it that easy for someone to steal your social security number.
