Evening Reading
by Steve Gibson, Sep 06, 2007 6:00pm PDTSo then as its probably obvious we're going to take a few steps to maybe have some more people realize that there are actually comments around here. The good news is if more people actually start viewing the comments we'll be able to justify more $ spent on fixing them up some more. As far as the look of those new chat bubbles.. yes not entirely happy with them either. We're open to someone else mocking up something prettier! Make sure you ctrl-f5 by the way. Oh eat these:
- Mind games any good?
- Tiny dinosaur ready to fly
- Facebook is hot
- Virus hates bees

Completely heterosexual question.
A girl you wanna bang invites you to a male strip club. You outright refuse.
Then you realize she's come with you to girl strip clubs before.
Then you think to yourself, what if she goes, likes it, and really needs the cock and you're not there?
What do you do? Do you go?

I having some trouble understanding the scoring model used on this website. For example (not whining here), player "whore" has a record of 80.6% (58-14) and is currently 2nd on the leaderboard in points with a score of 224. I, on the other hand (along with others) have a record of 84.7% (61-11) but I'm all the way down at #8 with a score of 186 (Samwards). How does someone with the same amount of picks (72) and a better record have a lower total score. I have never changed a pick (didn't even know I could till I started trying to figure this out).

ok im literally about to hit the purchase button for the samsung 4065F lcd
http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-LNT4065F-1080p-LCD-HDTV/dp/B000OE02G4/ref=sr_1_1/105-1158037-9365222?ie=UTF8&s=audio-video&qid=1189213621&sr=1-1
this is my first hdtv but i was just at best buy and it dominated all the others in terms of picture quality in my mind. i think its because of the glossy screen?
please inform me of any imminent price drops in this line of lcd or lcds in general or whatever. also if im making a huge mistake and i should buy a plasma or buy a 720p cause 1080p is worthless. i don't have any game consoles but plan on an xbox360 sometime soon.
this is a pretty big purchase for me so id rather not fuck it up. i usually do lots of research for stuff but theres just too much bullshit out there and someone on here recommended this lcd.

I was at the barber shop today and they put a gel/cream in my hair that smells like mango, I believe she said it was called "Defy" but I can't find it in stores or online. Anyone else use it or have heard of it? Thanks.

Visual voicemail requires backend support and a data plan. Basically you're voicemail is converted into an audio file, then downloaded via edge to your iPhone for future playback.
This is why you can't receive voicemail when Edge is down. I ran into this problem before when I had a low signal (enough to get and miss the call) that wasn't really Edge worthy - it took a while for the voicemail to get downloaded to my phone.
From what I understand, there is also an iPhone flag that is set on your account which is what kicks off the voicemail-to-audio file conversion.
Don't think there is a way around the issue without getting a full iPhone-compatible

i'm editing together an entire funeral procession on video for a client. now, i've never done a funeral video before and stumped on what sort of colours to process the video with and what music is appropriate.
i really like the beginning of Evanescence - Going Under. but after like 5 sec, the vocals kick in. is there an instrumental version floating around? and is there any other type of music you guys can suggest?

Doing some research on HDTVs since a Projector just won't work in my apartment, unfortunately. I like the Rear Projection sets because I've heard they have a great picture, and they're inexpensive compared to LCDs and Plasmas.
http://www.circuitcity.com/ccd/compare.do?poids=150945,174307&prevPage=categorylist.do&catOid=-12870&nstr=20012866%2020012867%2020012870%204590&link=ref
Looking at the Sony 50" 1080p SXRD ($1599) and the Samsung 50" 1080p RP.
Any of you guys have any experience with SXRD or Rear Projection TVs? I've heard some hype about how great SXRD is but would like to hear it from someone who owns one. Both these TVs are nearly identical in features, or at least close enough for my needs.

headphone menz:}
my birthday is coming up soon and I would love to replace my $20 Sony MDR-V150 with a decent set. my budget is $100.
my understanding is that open headphones provide the best sound quality by far. however, since these will be used mostly in an office environment, I am unsure if an open set is the right choice. my coworkers can get pretty loud and I want to drown out some of that noise without others hearing my music leaking out of the cans.
I have heard that Shure is coming out with a $100 set in the next week or so, the Shure SE110. Those look like canalphones which I am not too familiar with, but if I go with that format I can also use them with an mp3 player at some point. I've heard great things about the brand but I am not sure how long I would have to wait for them to come out.
I've also always heard great things about Sennheiser cans and it looks like the 555 although considered entry level, are priced right within my budget. It is an open design however, and the Senn 280 reviews are not as positive.
anyway, any advice/suggestion you can offer would be appreciated. hopefelly this post doesn't screw up page formatting since I am posting this from a phone.
thanks!
