  • I asked a girl out but now I am not sure if she realised I meant a date...?

    I asked out a girl from work and she said yes, but now I am not sure if she thought I meant to go as friends or a date... I have known the girl for a few months but have only really started to chat to her a couple of weeks ago. We get on really well and were talking about movies and the cinema - so I asked her if she would like to go and see the movie we were chatting about. She said "yes" then added "I do want to see that movie" now i don't know if she was saying yes because she was keen to see the movie and just go with me as a friend or knew I was asking her because I liked her and was thinking of a more romantic date. So does any one have any ideas how I can find out which one it is?

  • Does anyone know about single girls having difficulties entering Turkey?

    Hi guys, I have a friend who lives in Uzbekistan and she wants to travel to Turkey for a few days on holiday. However she has read about difficulties about any young (she is 24) girls travelling alone to Turkey from Uzbekistan as the border control are suspicious of girls coming to their country to become Prostitutes. Does any one have any experience about such a thing happening or any advice as to how she can avoid being turned away at the airport?

  • In which order would you watch these films?

    If you had to watch the following movies in which order would you watch them in (from favourite to least favourite)?

    Bridget Jones's Diary

    The Curious Case of Benjamin Button

    Dawn of the Dead

    The Departed

    Iron Man

    Little Miss Sunshine

    Mulholland Drive

    The Reader

    Tropic Thunder

    WALL-E

    I am trying to create a questionnaire that indicates what sort of movies the people questioned would watch based on their answers. I have chosen ten movies that I feel cover most aspects of 'Hollywood' films. If you want to suggest other movies that would help do that your suggestions would be appreciated (preferable relatively modern well known movies). Oh if it isn't too much to ask could you give your gender and age :-) Thanks for your help!

  • Why is the dark side of the moon cold?

    Could someone explain to me why the dark side of the moon is cold. As I understand space is a vacuum and the only source of heat is transferred by radiation (no convection or conduction). So when the moon is facing the sun it heats up - but surely when it rotates away the rock of the moon would not lose it's heat as it is in a vacuum. I understand that it would slowly cool due to radiating its heat away but I would have thought not quick enough to become cold before rotating back into the sunlight.

    Oh and a 2nd question on the same theme: If you woke up one day in intergalactic space (not very likely). How long would your body take to reach Absolute Zero (or whatever it is)? Are we talking hours, days, weeks, years? Again I understand the heat loss would be very slow due to the fact you are in a vacuum. I am writing a book and am doing a little research :-)

    Oh and one final question (which is a bit below the belt) would a man experience an erection in a vaccum due to the lack of pressure outside the body? (Just thought it would be an amusing one-liner to use in my book)))

  • Hi Guys! I have sent about 30 query letters to Agents and have only had 3 replies. Am I doing something wrong?

    I have written a screenplay and sent about 30 query letters to agents in the UK and USA. It has been 2 months and so far I have only had 3 replies... I have kept the query short, given the title, a log line and a very very brief synopsis (about 10 lines). In the case of UK agents I have enclosed a Stamped Post card (I thought a post card would make it even easier for them to reply as they wouldn't even need to print any letters off). I have also put a line where I mention I have a degree from University in writing. However I am just not getting anything back at all.....any ideas?

  • Hi, does anyone know how long a copyright on a novel lasts after the author's death?

    I am thinking of writing a screenplay based around Robert Louis Stevenson's Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. Does any one know the copyright issues of doing this? As far as I know copyright only has a limited life span ie. there would be no problems me adapting a Shakespeare play. Can anyone confirm this?

  • Hi Guys, I am having a problem with the internet. It says it is Acquiring Network Address - then it gives up.?

    I have just got a Sky as my new ISP and am using their Netgear Wireless Router. I am using my laptop - sometimes it connects fine and then I will lose connection. I try to reconnect but it tries to 'Acquire Network Address' then a it fails. I keep on trying to connect and often it will connect after a dozen attempts or so but sometimes it just refuses. I have a good signal from the router and am confused as to why it sometimes works and sometimes doesn't - is there some setting I need to change?

  • Looking for the "Death Note" Anime DVD - is it available?

    I am looking for the Anime series of Death Note on DVD. I have found websites like play.com have vol. 1 - have the other volumes been released in the UK? Also there is a live action version of the series - is this available? And since I am asking all these questions - where is the best place to buy Anime? I find that most highstreet stores and big dvd online shops charge a fortune.

  • What level do you finish Elder Scrolls Oblivion at?

    I've being playing Oblivion for about 30 Hours and have reached level 17. But I feel I have hardly scratched the surface of the game, however when you level up it is saying things like I am getting old and stuff. And also the enemies I'm fighting are lots of big Deadra giving me the feeling what am I going to encounter when I've played the game for another 20 hours or so - if I'm already meeting and killing big *** demons surely when I get tougher the game will be far too easy. I've not being power gaming at all (I have actually given myself high luck and have focused on Mercentile and speach craft). I have done the first few main quests and maybe twenty or so generic dungeons and I am feeling like I'm going to be cruising the rest of the game as every dungeon now yields tons of magic items.

    So I guess my question is: Is the game going to get harder after level 17 or will I just be wondering around easily slaughtering everything in my sight?

  • Should I try and get hold of my ex-girl friend?

    Three months ago my girlfriend sent me an email saying that she was very sorry but she no longer felt the same about me. We had had a few slightly off days but nothing serious so I was surprised and shocked when this happened. I tried to get hold of her a few times just to talk things over but she didn't reply. Although I was devastated I decided to move on, keep busy and to keep my mind off her. Now three months on I am still very much in love with her and can't stop thinking about her. Should I try again to talk to her or should I just keep trying to move on?
