One of my friends is looking forward to study in Middlesex Uni next year. I just wanted to know if their teaching methods/the degree in whole is just average or the best of the rest... anything regarding their business management degree will be helpful.

Thanks in advance!

Most people use biodiesel on pre-'85 vehicles, which is just fine. Are the internals too sensitive on relatively new vehicles to run on large percentages of biodiesel?

What are the long term effects of running on biodiesel?

i.e. high engine oil consumption, overheating, low-milage overhaul?

[These may not be actual long-term effects, but I was hoping for answers along these lines...]

What should I do to the injection timing to improve performance / optimum reduction in emissions when running biodiesel (B20 - 20% Biodiesel)?

Should it be the same as when I run 100% diesel? What is the link, if any, between the properties of biodiesel and the injection timining?

I have to run fully advanced timing to avoide excessive smoke during hard acceleration. Any idea why?

Most manufactures say that its acceptable to run up to 5% biodiesel, if it is up to standards. What sort of engine modifications should one perform before running on 100% biodiesel? What are the long-term effects, engine-wise?

In biodiesel production, glycerin is a by-product... I know it is used in the cosmetics industry, but as this is formed in the presence of methanol (an alcohol) would that be a problem?

Is there some sort of a standard to the glycerin that is currently used for cosmetics?

Whats the max high of standing water level as qouted by the manufacturer for the '03 Vios?

Any link to find that out will be helpfull too...

I'm using ad hoc wireless network, over two laptop computers. One is connected to broadband via a USB modem. I use broadband on the other PC, via the wireless network.

When the PCs are side by side, I have no trouble connecting to the Internet over the wireless connection. I don't actually have to 'connect'. I just open up I'net Explorer and I'm ready to go!

However when I move about the other PC, and the signal strenght is low (not minimum, either) it fails to connect. When I try to browse, the 'Connect to Internet' pop up box, well... pops up.

Is this normal? Do I have to have a Good/Excellent signal strenght all the time to use Internet? Is there anyways I can overcome this?

Lets say you starred a question, and then changed your mind. Can we de-star (remove/take back) the question?

I'm a big fan of Ally McBeal and Friends. The Producers of Friends said that they will NOT be making a Friends re-union movie. But do you think there will be one for Ally McBeal? Would you like to see one made, or will it spoil what Ally McBeal was at the peak of its time? Do comment...

First of all I’m gay and happy. Sencondly I'm reposting this after a couple of months to get a different perspective. Please do post your comments! Here goes...

One of my online friends is having (and has, for a couple of years) an attraction for boys. Haven’t ‘tried’ anything gay, but he is simply disgusted with being ‘gay’ and all… He wants to be heterosexual, and lead a ‘normal life’, as he put it… What is the best thing he can do to overcome this?

Anything helpful will be great appreciated. Thanks in advance!

In the above video, elasped time 00.14s, the A1/multifunction display turns red (as it does when it indicates a fault). It looks like its acting like a shift light - is that what it is?

If it is, is this available for the CLK63 AMG or can it be made available for the others as well? Especially for a W211?

Thanks in advance...

When ever the car is parked out in the sun are are black ants crawling all over the car. I've located the source; they've nested in the water gutters on the A and C-Pillars. I tried to flush them away, but the water wont go down; they've blocked the gutters.

I tried spraying insecticide but it didn't do much. They were coming out at the bottom of the A-pillar and heading down towards the mudflaps and into the bodywork.

I left the car in the sun for hours. They come pouring out and die off, suppose of the heat, I guess...

I've seen an ant or two inside. I don't want them to nest in there... what can I do before it gets worse? How do they manage to nest in a gutter anyways?

Years ago I had this bad habbit where I bit and peeled my lips. I had quite dry lips and sometimes I've even drawn blood. But now Ive gotten over that (thank god) but now dark marks are all over my lips. Its not that noticable, but it gives my lips a darker look. Anything that I can do get them back to what they were? Ive heard that having honey on them for a bit will help... any truth in that?

MKB is a Mercedes Benz tuning agent - I've seen them use this great looking blue hue on some of their parts. If anyone could give the color code, it would be greatly appreciated.

I'm gay and quite undecided and confused about the whole gay-marriage thing. We (gays) are supposed to be a bit more open minded than our heterosexual counterparts. Until a few years ago marriage was an institution between a man and a woman. Now it’s altered and accepted (in some places) for two men or two women to 'marry'. Frankly, I believe in love and if two people are right for each other they should be together, not necessarily 'married' the conventional way. But is that the end of it? Here goes...

Note: I'm not trying to gross you out, but outing my thoughts -

Now what would happen if say, two siblings (regardless of gender; male/female,male/male,female/female) say they are in love (not the sibling love!) and want to marry, or on whole another level, if three people love each other unconditionally and wants to get married, how can someone say their love is not pure or someother reason not to get married?
