» Knicks @ Hawks Tonight Who Will Win?

This is bull my Knicks are shorthanded as hell everyone is getting injured, like flies and the Hawks are a good young team, but beatable considering Knicks beat the Jazz and have played to par against the Spurs, Celtics, Mavericks, and Blazers so far this year. Hopefully, Al Harrington goes off tonight against his former team the Atlanta Hawks. Who do you got tonight?lol, well I guess it my team and your team. I used to underestimate the Knicks which i shouldn't have done becasue they are not that bad, and they can beat the Hawks. That being said the Hawks just got Josh Smith back, and they play alot better with Smith in the lineup. I say Hawks But good Luck to you Knicks It will be a fun, entertaining game to watch :...... - 2008-12-20

» Transfer window and Champions League?

The way I understand it is, if you've played one game for one team in the CL, you can't play for another CL team if you happen to get transferred during the tournament. Is that correct? What about players who were not on the roster when CL started, are there any restrictions on them?if you play in a champions league game from the start or are brought on as a sub and move to another club involved in any european competition that season, you are cup tied and cant play, Im actually not sure if its the same for players on the bench that dont get on, I wouldnt think so. Players that arent in the squad arent affected....... - 2008-12-20

» Do you think 15 is old?

I am 15 years old tomorrow and i was wondering if you considered this to be old?? I doYour old to a child, your young to an old person. Why do you feel old? 15 isn't old enough to drive, 15 isnt old enough to do much. Stop Worrying about being only 15 and enjoy your Birthday. Happy birthday.Of course you do, you're looking forward. Try looking at 15 from the other direction. I'm 24 and 15 looks pretty young. I can even be objective about it: you can't legally drive, you can't legally buy alcohol (it's only 19 in Ontario, and even then you're still 4 years away), you can't vote, you are still (until age 16 here) legally required to attend school, and if your whole family dies you will beco...... - 2008-12-20

I have always wondered...i'm on the pill and i know it's 98% (or something like that) effective but i know that there is a chance you can still get pregnant while on the pill. I'm not preggo but i was wondering: what happens if you are on the pill, and are pregnant, but don;t know that you are pregnant, so you keep taking the pill.....does this harm the baby or anything?? I've always wanted to know this. thanksthere is a small chance of it but its pretty unlikely. Dr's wouldnt prescribe meds that were too dangerous to a fetus to women who are obviously going to be having sex and still, even if slightly, at risk for pregnancy. When I went on the pill my Dr said there was no risk to the baby if i did get pregnant. I l...... - 2008-12-20

Revenues obtained depend on the rights required by our clients, but all revenues are shared on a 50/50 basis with the photographer. Photographers retain full for their images, and may exhibit them, sell prints for personal, non-commercial use and use them for self-promotion.

» How did avian flu reach the UK?

How did avian flu reach the UK? By Pallab Ghosh BBC News It was always a case of when rather than if bird flu came to the UK. But the outbreak at a Suffolk farm has come as a surprise. Migrating birds don't come to the UK for a month or two. So the priority for government scientists is to trace how the virus got here. The most likely explanation is that it was from a wild bird arriving earlier than expected. But other possible sources, such as farm supplies, have to be ruled out to ensure that the disease doesn't spread. Virulent strain Scientists are trying to determine whether or not the virus is the same virulent strain of H5N1 that has killed birds in Asia, or a milder form. That should give some clue as to where the virus...... - 2008-12-20

» Flash suggestions for Canon 350D

Thanks in advance for any suggestions on this. I have a Canon 350D and would like to get a flash. If you've had good/bad experience with a particular model let me know. I don't have the cash to put out $400, and ideally I'd like to keep it under $200 if possible. I usually shoot outdoors (landscapes) with my dSLR and only shoot indoors with a P&S. However we have a baby on the way (due in Feb) and I'd like to welcome him to the world with higher quality indoor shots. So... the flash will mostly be for indoor shooting, candids of the family and portraits. I don't expect to be a huge flash user but then again, having never invested in a flash for my SLRs or dSLRs, I'm guessing I may find a few new uses for it when I have it, so I don...... - 2008-12-20

» Legally can someone be laided off due to pregnancy?

I'm more than able to do my job considering I'm a front desk clerk at a hotel but I was told that I couldn't go certain things an that my hours would be cut or I will be laid off. Is that legal? Nope. See a lawyer. I suspect that if your lawyer contacts the hotel management, the hotel will contact its lawyers, and their lawyers will tell them to back off and apologise to you at a minimum. But -- see a lawyer NOW, because it's easier, quicker, and cheaper to prevent things than to fix things. It is illegal to get fired/laid off for being pregnant- BUT in some states (at least my state I live in) if the company wants to fire you then they can do so and they do not have to have any reasons behind it.

I'm beginning the transition from film to digital, and am looking at boxes and boxes of prints, negatives, and slides from the last 40 years or so. It's time to start looking at film/slide scanners. Yes, Nikon has some very nice-looking equipment, but that may be overkill. Fry's, on the other hand, has $150 no-name film scanners. What is "good" in the middle ground? (FYI, I had a decent B&W darkroom back in the '70s and '80s, so I'm beyond "point and shoot" but not up to magazine-level shots yet. My goal is to print some of my old stuff as 8x10s and possibly 11x14s to hang on the wall for my own use and enjoyment, as well as try all the other cool things one can do with a digital image.

» Can potassium lactate trigger a milk allergy?

Theres this good salmon jerky that I get from Washington whenever im in the state and I was recently diagnosed with a milk allergy. I was reading the ingredients to the jerky and saw that it had potassium lactate. Google searches indicate that it may or may not be able to trigger a milk allergy. Can someone elaborate if im able to eat this anymore or not? Thanks.Hi Sam. Lactate is Lactic Acid. This chemical is NOT the same as Lactose (milk sugar). Lactic acid is a naturally occurring substance in the body (e.g. lactic acid build-up after heavy exercise is the cause of muscle soreness). So, I do not see any relationship between potassium lactate and milk allergies.its probably due to some of the unnatural ingredients in the food, lik...... - 2008-12-20

I have been fortunate in the fact that when photographing newborns they have all been relatively responsive and give many expressions for me to work with. This was my first newborn twins shoot. I can tell you that there is only one more baby but it was infinitely harder. Every time one would pose perfect, the other would stick a tongue out and so on and so forth.

I am looking to purchase vBulletin to to replace several phpBB installations I have running on various web sites.

Most features for phpBB come in the form of 'hacks' that need to be re-implement after an uppgrade which is a painful process. I like vBulletin because all the features I want are included and therefore I won't be modding. My main question is how well does vBulletin do against spambots attempting to register on my forums?

To relieve some of the pain try this: Change your shoes...New Balance is great for running. Take two advil with every meal. Ice them for 20 minutes 3 times a day. Have someone stretch out your shins with you. have someone hold you foot up while you push down and vice versa for 10 seconds a piece. This is what I have. Take care of it now!

Seeing interdependence of Nature and People http://honeygardens.com/hnews.html The gathering of elderberries will continue for several weeks as the luscious umbels of purple berries ripen at a different pace throughout the fields. Walking through the plants we can see that the deer have been here and left their mark. There are chunks missing from leaves on one side of the land. After growing for three years, these elderberry are able to weather the grazing of the deer. Now that they are seven feet tall, there is a natural pruning taking place each season. The deer jump over the fence wires, no longer electrified as the charger and battery have been taken to a bee yard along a bear highway where it is needed. When the elder...... - 2008-12-20

» By the Numbers: What's Wrong with the Galaxy

The Galaxy have only five points in their last six MLS games, and facing an A-League opponent, they crashed out of the US Open Cup. Across that seven-game stretch, they have scored only four goals. Put simply, they're too talented to be struggling like this. What's wrong? Herzog's Greed Andreas Herzog's cannon of a left-foot is increasingly shot-happy ... and it isn't working. In shots attempted, he's tied for second in the league behind Damani Ralph, even though Ralph has nine run-of-play goals to Herzog's three. He needs to be setting up Ruiz, who is taking more shots/90 than last year (3.49 vs. 3.24), but who is actually getting fewer on goal (1.97 vs. 2.13). That suggests he isn't getting the quality of chances he needs. Cobi's...... - 2008-12-20

If I am giving a presentation to a group and need stereo sound for certain parts of the presentation, how do I hook up external sound and speakers.

There are many different strains of H5N1, some of which kill more than half the people they infect, while others do little or no harm.

The only downfall with a 300mm, unless you spend TONS of money, is that it will likely be a slower lens (f5.6 maybe?), which means you'll need more light to get the fast action shots.
