» My solution to hunting (initial posting complete now)
This is something i have been musing over the last few days and i came about these thoughts when doing my pro-fox hunting thread ( http://www.jref.com/forum/showthread.php?t=36981 -BTW if anyone wants to comment on the issues i raised i the thread they are more than welcome to :) )- one of the main purpose's of the pro-fox hunting thread was that i wanted to make people more aware to the issues of the ban on fox hunting and how if affected the people who benefited from fox hunting etc. One of these main issues i raised in the thread was the wide ranging economical losses the ban caused on small rural communities. Anyways, I would estimate that the large majority of majority of hunting takes places in rural/isolated communities where their ...... - 2010-02-08
» Audition song for drama school....help! ?
From Dec - April 09 I will be auditioning for 6/7 drama schools and I was wondering if anyone can advise me on a song to sing for part of my audition process? Some schools require you to do 2 contrasting pieces and a song! singing is not my forte! Im not terrible! but I was wondering if you can recommend a song thats easy to sing and learn!? thanksSomething you know inside out, back to front and upside down. Go for a simple melody that you'll be able to sing when you're nervous, no high notes that you can only get on a good day. It's about how you perform more than how impressive the song is. I would recommend 'Somewhere, someplace, sometime' from the Denise van Outen version of Tell Me On A Sunday if you can fi...... - 2010-02-08
» VPS Optimization Request
Hi, I moved our site to a new host about a month ago, from a shared hosting account to a VPS. At first things seemed ok, but over the past few days members have been complaining (http://www.talkwrestlingonline.com/forum/showthread.php?t=28698) about the time it takes to post/reply to threads and edit them. I've also noticed this myself. I've tried to include as much of the info as you have requested but I couldnt do it all as I wasnt sure how to find out some of the information required. 1.

Which library and class function would I use to round up to the nearest 0.5 ex. 4.34 --> 4.5 5.77 --> 6.0 Came across the ceil() function in cmath, wondering if this would work?You’re looking for a complicated solution to a simple problem. You just need to multiply the number by two, round, and then divide by two to get the number you’re looking for. A solution which includes math.h (and thus wasting an extra few bytes of memory): #include float roundhalf (float num) { return round(num*2)/2; } And a solution which does not (just figures whether it would round up or down, and adds one to it if it would round up after it is multiplied by two (equal to adding .5, normally): float roundhalf (float num) { return (num*...... - 2010-02-08

» Buying 2k4 Mazda Rx8 over Nissan 350z and Audi TT from same model year - Smart Call?
Just curious on the thoughts of others - I'm in the market for a new car, and have centered on the 2k4 Mazda Rx8; The decision to settle on this car has mostly to do with the fact that there is a steal of a deal on one in my area, and that it has potentially usable back seats (where as the TTs seats amount to leather shelving and the 350z has none to speak of). I've sat in the back of one myself and found it not too bad. I like car with a kick, but I'm not a power freak or gear-head. Peak speeds and 0-60 times are not as important as comfort and reliability. That being said, I do like having the ability to pass someone on the interstate when I have to. Anyway - Smart call?

» Eragon ripped off Star Wars....?
i don't want rants about either of these books or to hear about how much people love either of them. Please give reasoned answers.Are you asking whether I think Eragon ripped off Star Wars? Of course. A young farmer living with his uncle figures out that he is the last of a dying group (dragon rider, Jedi). After the death of his uncle, he goes out into the world with a wise old man, attempting to bring down an evil leader, and also to figure out the mysteries of his father (who he never met). On the way, the wise old man dies and the hero meets a rebellious and mysterious man (Han, Murtagh). Together they save a princess, and continue on their journey. This is the summary for both Star Wars and Eragon. The resemblance is too st...... - 2010-02-08

In fact, her executive talents of successfully running governments as two time mayor and governor is all done without the Clinton administration.Popular governor in a state with a population of around 700,000 where there is an overwhelming majority of Republicans is not really a good measure,but she does have a good approval rating so I'll give her that It would be a good thing for Obama You know people think that she's popular,but she's one of the reasons why McCain lost a lot of moderates The Consevative base may turn out,but it will not be enough to get Independents I'm a female DemocratYes it would be ...... - 2010-02-08

Just curious on the thoughts of others - I'm in the market for a new car, and have centered on the 2k4 Mazda Rx8; The decision to settle on this car has mostly to do with the fact that there is a steal of a deal on one in my area, and that it has potentially usable back seats (where as the TTs seats amount to leather shelving and the 350z has none to speak of). I've sat in the back of one myself and found it not too bad. I like car with a kick, but I'm not a power freak or gear-head. Peak speeds and 0-60 times are not as important as comfort and reliability. That being said, I do like having the ability to pass someone on the interstate when I have to. Anyway - Smart call?

My forum is broken up into major categories like this: Product 1 --- Forum 1 -------- (threads) --- Forum 2 -------- (threads) --- Forum 3 -------- (threads) -------- Sub-Forum 1 ------------ (threads) Product 2 --- Forum 1 -------- (threads) --- Forum 2 -------- (threads) --- Forum 3 -------- (threads) -------- Sub-Forum 1 ------------ (threads) ... .etc. My question is, I would really like users to be able to subscribe to a digest for an entire Product, not only just Forums within a Product. If you own a particular product, you might want to get all news of what occurs related to that product. But these are forum "categories", and no Forum Tools menu appears within them (at least by default) - is there no way to su...... - 2010-02-08

» Alternative methods of alternative methods :)
I told Orie in another thread I'd try to dig up some of the B&W image transfers I've done, and I found these. But these are a little unusual so they need a little explanation. (When I have images I like because of a feeling they evoke, I like manipulating them in various ways.) :wink: I also like exploring the effects of as many Polaroid films as I can with image transfers. These are a few examples of image transfers I achieved by placing infrared prints on a copystand and shooting them with Kodak 64-T slide film. I then had slides of infrared images. I'd read about using Polaroid Polapan 100 for image transfers, one of the few films that doesn't end with the classic "9" designated for other emulsions that lend themselves to...... - 2010-02-08
» It feels like i have lung cancer?
ive been stuck in bed for last few days wit bad chest infection,but its only getting worse?i collapsed on the way up the stairs wit a fit of coughing,a mixture of coughing and gagging almost,going red wit the coughing,no flem or anything,its a real deep coughGo to the doctor.It does sound a like whooping cough, have you been vaccinated? But you could also have bronchitis, pneumonia or the flu (which has a real deep cough to begin with). I would guess pneumonia if you have a fever 102 or over. You need to see the doctor. If it's whooping cough, you should go in right away because with the right medication, you could shorten the course, which can be a long one.I didn't know you could "feel" cancer. Sounds like a chest...... - 2010-02-08
» Whenever i go to load a video on Windows Movie this pops up... WHY?! ?
The file C:\Users\THE NEW SHERIFF\Pictures\Jonas Brother Concert- Phone Pictures\V_01612.3G2 cannot be imported because the codec required to play the file is not installed on your computer. If you have already tried to download and install the codec, close and restart Windows Movie Maker, and then try to import the file again. It wont let me inport my video and i dont know what that means, what does that mean?!A codec is a device or program capable of encoding and/or decoding a digital data stream or signal. The word codec may be a combination of any of the following: 'compressor-decompressor', 'coder-decoder', or 'compression/decompression algorithm.

» Funniest thing in Japanese
Anyone a few years into the langauge knows that Japanese humor is usually... well... not very funny. At least not in the ways we're used to. I searched around the forums and found no link to this. It's a bit old (I saw it a year ago I think) but I still laugh when I watch it. Probably sounds familiar to anyone that recalls their first year of Japanese. This will be a good lesson on a lot of ways NOT to say things. Enjoy. http://pine.zero.ad.jp/yori/shinbashi.swfLMAO! That was awesomely funny. It reminded me of being in Japanese class, especially the one guy who would lag behind. And how could you not love シンバシ、シンバシ、シンバシ！ Thanks for sharing, GP. :D:DThat was very funny. Does a Japanese teacher just repea...... - 2010-02-08
» Why isn't there a third cola company - i.e other than Coke and Pepsi?
After Coke and Pepsi - we have not seen a third popular cola company? Why NOT. In almost every area we have "many" competing brands - but NOT IN THIS ONE!!! whyI agree with the person who asked about Dr Pepper. I actually preferred Virgin Soda (tried to gain foothold in the US around 2005). At the time I said I preferred the taste, but I just liked shouting "I must ravish the virgins!" They should have used me for marketing =) That, and cola tastes around the same, and costs the same, so people have brand loyalties. If a cola costs the same, they go for the brand. If it's inexpensive, they see it as inferior. It's like when coca cola tried to change the formula. The blind taste test said people perferred the new one...... - 2010-02-08

» Guys when your sister doesn't like your gf...?
When your sister doesn't like your gf (she can't stand her), and your gf doesn't like your sister, does that put a lot of stress you? Or could you really care less about what your sister and gf think of each other, as long as you are happy with your gf? who are you dating? your girlfriend.. or your sister? precisely. your sister is your sister, shes not your brain, not your conscience, not even your legal proxy, who is empowered to make decisions for you in your absence or unavalibilty. so why give a flying f**k about her opinion? everyone is entitled to ine, just cos she has it, doesnt mean you have to agree. tell your sister this: "I dont care what you think of (insert girlfriends name here), i really care for her,...... - 2010-02-08
» Thinking about getting a Nissan Frontier..any input?
Thinking about getting a 2001 Nissan Frontier, I have read the Car and Driver take on it, sounds wonderful, NOW I want some owners who actually have one to tell me what they think of it. Its the 4 door, V6! Don't know all the other exacts yet since I am still looking at them, haven't picked "thee" one out yet Thanks2001 Frontier is not as good of a truck as the 2005 and newer. the 4.0 liter motor uses a timing chain and makes 265 hp towing is better and no real difference in fuel economy. The economy is such you should be able to help some one pay there mortgage if you take there 3 or 4 year old Frontier off of them. Craigs list and E-bay motor have a car fax run on the one you think you want. Make sure the seller actually is p...... - 2010-02-08
» Dir en grey
Does anyone know exactly what the 1st press of Kisou looks like and what it comes with? I have a habit of wanting all the 1st press versions of CD's. I already have Kisou but have no idea if its the 1st press or not, and the place nearby that sells some Japanese CD's has another version (totally silver front cover instead of the grey front cover - both are official CD's, just ones obviously older than the other.) Any ideas? xxStarxxCheck if it's not a Hong Kong or Taiwan release. Those usually have a different cover. I think you can tell the pressing of a cd when you look at the inside (usually transparent) ring of the disc. There's usually a number printed there and if the last number is a 1, then it should be a first pressing. ...... - 2010-02-08

I'm not even kidding or trolling.. I always have the tendency to grope myself down there when I'm drifting off to sleep, sleeping, or waking up in the morning. It's not even a necessarily sexual thing, it's more like "Oh, there I am". Maybe I'm just really in tune with myself or something..? I'm a girl, by the way.I do too, but not sexually or anything.

It's been my observation that girls tend to go overboard and then feel disappointment when their boyfriends don't do the same. Keep it simple.

From my text book, it teaches me sentences like: 富士山は 高い 山です。 Then I heard a song whose lyric is like: 大きな 太鼓 ドンドン 小さな 太鼓 どんどんどん 。 Why does the 2nd sentence is not like "大きい 太鼓 ドンドン 小さい 太鼓 どんどんどん 。"？？？ Thanks in advance.:relief:Have you gotten into な vs い adjectives? There are basically two kinds... the two I just mentioned. 大きい and 小さい happen to be special, in that they can be used both ways.
