I did a speed test a couple seconds ago and it says my download speed is 1250 kb/s but whenever i download something the fastest speed it goes to is 160 kb/s. I took off the 20% bandwidth that microsoft takes but it stays at 160 kb/s. How can i improve my internet speed?

Currently I am a scientist who I suppose is a believer in hybrid religions (try to refrain from the hell jokes).

I was once Buddhist as a child and then decided to try and find the "correct" religion in the world later on only to come up short everywhere. It was then I saw that every religion had its ups and downfalls and only through taking what essentially helped you from each bucket and leaving behind the dead weights could you move more comfortably and freely through life. It is essentially Jeet Kune Do but for religion. I have also realized that in sides to pick science is best for me because science is not fixed upon a single hill, it moves wherever the evidence is and wherever it may come from (so one day, scientists might beleive in God or be able to totally disprove it).

Alright. So, about a year ago me and my brother purchased World of Warcraft, and created a shared account. Then the expansion came out and we bought that, and upgraded the shared account. Now we've come to the point where we each need our own accounts, but according to blizzard's website only 1 authentication key per game account. So... I'm wondering, do I have to go and purchase my own copy of burning crusade to make an account, or do I have to purchase both that AND the classic version of WoW? Or is there any other cheaper way to get an authentication key?

I think it's pretty stupid to buy a whole other copy when I already have one. u-u;;

poll or survey?
Aren't questions such as "What did you have for dinner?", "What is your weather like where you are?", and even "Where are you from?" surveys collecting information about the P&S community? According to Yahoo!'s own dictionary they are but try to tell them that. I have and got the usual form letter and of course no follow up, no matter how many times I wrote them.Polls on the other hand give choices such as:
"Which do you like most A, B or C" or "Which of the following do you like best: A. something or____ B. ____ or _____ c. ____ or ____"

OK now to make sure I have a leagl question in case Yahoo and reporters missed the first ones
What do you think this question will get violated as?
A. Chatting
B. Ranting

Thank you for playing

I spent a whole week in hospital from the 20th until the 27th of December and feel like I missed out on the whole thing.

I missed my boys opening their presents on Xmas morning and my usual huge pile of Xmas dinner was rather less than I was used to!!

Have to say that the hospital staff made it good fun and I had tons of visitors. But I just wondered if anyone elses Xmas was a bit less than their original expectations like my own?

tan = so (used with adjectives)
tanto = so much (used with verbs)

for example,

te quiero tanto = I love you so much
tu pelo es tan largo = your hair is so long

is this the correct way to use "tan" & "tanto"?
are there other things I should know?

I recently adopted a male chihuahua puppy who was being abused and neglected. We have a 1 year old female Chihuahua and Bruno is our first male chi.

He doesnt have an agressive bone in his body but when he marks and we sturly say "NO" he flips on his back and shakes in terror... It is the saddest thing.

We LOVE him already and are greatful for any advice we can get.

I don't agree with the saying no one is perfect. People say that, because perfection is subjective, no one can attain perfection. But rather than saying that no one is perfect, I'd like to think that everyone is perfect or has the ability to attain their own form of perfection. What are your thoughts on this?

I just got into a new relationship. It is about 3 weeks since me and my boyfriend have been together. I am trying to make some drastic changes in my life for the new year and I just feel that having a boyfriend will in a way stress me out even more and drag me down. I am a college student and I have to get my grades up next semester majorly, I have to work on me as a person and I just need to become more successful in everyday life. And I just don't think that falling in love will be a good thing for me right now. Do you all think that it is wrong that I want to break up wtih my boyfriend?

Thanks

okay, we've been trying for over a year to get prego ( my mom took about that amount of time w/ each pregnancy) and that's how long it took for my first child. the last few days, my breasts are extremely tender feeling, almost swollen, but not necessarily to the touch, just a dull constant ache. they are never sore before my cycle, and i'm only 26, so it's not menopause. it's still 2 weeks til my period, and my husband has told me lately that i'm unusually moody and emotional.

my question is, is it reasonable to get my hopes up? or what are some other causes of breast pain? i should probably know the answer to all this already since i've had a child, but my last pregnacy was really mild. i was sick due to my blood sugar issues, but not many normal symptoms like vomiting, or cravings. so.
just looking for opinions, thanks for your time :) no harm in asking right?

33s, 45s ... R.I.P.

What was the last black, grooved, highly scratchable disc of vinyl that you bought? If it was an LP, it probably had the lyrics printed on the inner paper wrapper. If it was a single, do you remember what the "B side" was?

I think the last I bought was a UK import of the single "Lovesong" by the Cure.
