  • What is a good way to make a nightmare happen?

    Turned 30 this year and still haven't had one. Never any dream of an unpleasant nature. What is the best way to have one? Tried getting into a book,movies in the dark before bed,reading allot about those topics for a full week and still nothing.

    Allot of people tell me it must be great to never have one, but after time you feel left out of the conversation when ever it comes up.

    Cheers!

  • What do you call the 3 realms of energy beyond normal senses?

    I'm Clairsentient and found these 3 realms that co-exist as part of everything. The best way to narrow them down is ones an absent shadow of everything (space n mass) one is the flow of time threw mass, and the odd one, Its like the ''shadows shadow'' but once you find it its easy to do almost at will. the 3rd odd one i call Existences Mirror, its all white and the size of 3 rooms...you have to stay in a sharp frame of mind to be in it but everything behaves like zero gravity white rice with no mass n made of all energy representingg all there is.

    The net is full of money grabbing sites to help with dead loved ones so its hard to find a lead on such a subject. The best i can find so far is the Chakra types from long recorded history on cultures.

    Thanks for any pointers!

  • Recover overwritten word document Windows 7?

    Hello everyone! Was just moding a CV/Resume for a different job and have overwritten one i need to keep. Been looking threw some Ehow pages for the last hour but nothing seems to match Windows 7, most the options aren't there. I've tryed the run command with Winword/a as Ehow says it but the red note comes up saying no?

    Does anyone know how to do it in Windows 7? one good tip says to look in the TEMP file under windows/C and show hidden files, yet the hidden options won't show up.

    Cheers everyone :D

  • Keeping loud birds out of a large tree?

  • Doctor Who DVD files collection, will it ever end?

    I'm asking because it seems there will be no ''complete collection''. Was meant to be 20 issues and now its going and going and going. There is allot of mixed old stuff in them and it's become an extra bill instead of something good to watch. Problem is we want to have the complete collection and get a custom display case for it.

    So...does anyone know if its going to end?

  • Need some help. First UK passport, section 4 parents?

    Hello everyone. I'm filling out my first UK passport threw Marriage after moving to the UK from the USA many years back. The odd thing with it is section 4, it states (PDF copy) ''If both parents were born after 31 December

    1982, or were both born outside the UK, please

    give the following details in section 8 of the

    application form. Either:

    • the full name, town, country of birth and date of

    marriage of your mother’s or parent 1’s parents

    and your father’s or parent 2’s parents, or

    • details of your parents’ claim to British

    nationality.

    To get all that info will be a bit hard with my family in bits. The confusing part with the form is that the book says it is needed if this is your first time and the .Gov web page they give (https://www.gov.uk/apply-first-adult-passport) said that it is only required if i want to claim on my grandparents british side.

    The worst part for me is even if i could get in contact with my dad, there is little chance he will have the info on him. Is there USA office i can write to with with documents to get my grandparents information?

  • Unbrick Sony memory stick pro duo?

    I got a PSP off a friend of a friend the other month with two Pro duo memory cards and they seem to be bricked. I have a good idea how they got bricked. But nothing reads them.

    The reason i'm asking this question is when use Gparted with puppy linux it searches a little longer for the cards, the usb card reader flashes forever and when i pull it out the screen goes black with lots of txt.

    Puppy Linux can't find it but knows its there, if i leave it overnight nothing seems to happen.

    Is there a program that can get into it?

  • How do you get the Blue screen of death in Windows?

    Allot of people in the family got it and we can't pin down why? When you use Puppy linux (link below) you can browse your HDD and just delete the problem files, then safe mode should work.

    But the best tip i get from google is Malware. Most likely from online arcade sites the kids were on all the time. So we always save the files to an external hard drive and re-install Windows or just replace it with Ubuntu

    Anyone know? Cheers for the help.
