My laptop is a Toshiba Satellite L650D - both the computer and the AC adapter are 2.5-3 years old. About 3 months ago the DC jack broke and I got it replaced so it should be new, along with a new battery. Recently, my laptop won't charge properly. It has been charging on and off for the past few days but now it seems like it won't charge at all. When it has been charging, the battery charged fine so I don't think it is that. On other occasions, it would start charging but if I tried to turn the computer on, everything would just switch off and it would stop charging - like the power wasn't reaching it properly? Not sure if the DC jack is faulty again (though it seems perfectly fine) or whether I need a new AC adapter/charger? I just wanted an opinion before I spent money on a new charger when it wasn't really the cause of the problem.

I have tried it on different power points also so it's not the power source... Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time.

I have seen this picture all over the net but have had no luck finding out what dog this is. It looks similar to a welsh or airedale terrier but not quite. If someone could let me know it would be much appreciated! Thank you for your time :)

I've tried to look at different flights online - starting early to compare prices and plan my holiday - however almost every website I've visited does not show any available flights past June 2012/mid July 2012. I'm planning a holiday from Brisbane, AUS to Manila, Philippines between the 23rd of June to around the 20th of July, 2012. I'm assuming it's only due to the fact that the airlines themselves have not produced dates that far ahead yet, so does anybody know when these flight dates for the later months of next year will be up? Thanks for your time. :)

I love my best friend! She's been there for everything and there was very, very little I wouldn't do for her. She practically lives at my place half the time and she's the only other person I willingly share my Mum with. :) So who is YOUR best friend? And why are they so great? :D Let me know - whether they are human, animal or a computer ;)

A lot of my friends love playing Dragon Age and are anticipating the new one coming out, so I was wondering if I should give it a shot. As stated in the question, I'm almost 17 and I've only really played games on Nintendo DS and playstation 1/2. It sounds pretty good from what I've heard so far but I don't want to buy it without being totally sure. Oh and I want to buy it on PC. (Since I don't have an Xbox)

So, what are your personal thoughts on the game? :) Thank-you for taking the time to read this and/or answer.

There is this game for Nintendo DS called Runefactory and there's 3 of them. (I.e Runefactory: A fantasy harvest moon, " " " 2, " " "3)

I'm not sure if it's available for purchase in shops in Australia. I've tried looking in EB Games and also on the internet for places like Big W or GameTraders. No such luck. I've downloaded the rom for an NDS emulator but it's always playing up.

If anybody has any idea of where it can be purchased in Australia, preferably Brisbane, please let me know. Or even if there are sites you can buy it online to be shipped to Brisbane, Australia. Thank you for your time :)

"Hinidi mo na ba ako mahal" Can somebody please translate this from filipino to english?

Please and thank you!

If you could please translate this:

"ok pagdimo sinabi mag papakama tay ako"

Thank you for your time! Much appreciated :)

One of my close friends in the Philippines said this to me.. I can only recognise a few words so a full translation would be much appreciated!

"kailan ka mag OL ung sabi pala ni kuya morban pang dagdag daw sa pagawa ng bahay"

(I know, he's a lazy typist.)

I also don't know the meaning of OL so if anyone else might know, it would help me out greatly!

Thank you for your time and effort :)

I'm talking to a family friend in the Philippines and his english is very poor and my tagalog is only a little better. Usually I can piece together his sentences using the words I know in tagalog and if not I usually go to websites that teach tagalog and use the information provided there. (I only use google translate as a last resort and only for specific words not whole sentences but in this case it has failed me -.-)

So what exactly I am asking is what these 2 words translate to from tagalog into english.

"Un" and "Samin" - I tried asking one of my cousins but she said there is no english translation for 'un', only 'yun' which means that they'll be back soon or something.. which doesn't really fit into what my friend says. I am leaning towards 'un' being slang for another word.. ?

Here are examples of when my friend has said this, "DITO SAMIN WELCOME PO UN E"

or "BAKIT PO BAD UN?"

Any help you have would be greatly appreciated :) Also any websites or other ways (such as books) you recommend I could look into for learning Tagalog would also be greatly appreciated :) Thanks for your time!

I had read a poem at school called "Rhinoceros Beetle" by Susan Hawthorne and it's about a man, who as a kid, tortured insects and particularly liked rhinoceros beetles. I found it especially intriguing and was hoping to show my Dad but I can't find it online ANYWHERE. It's starting to get on my nerves. I tried asking my teacher for a copy but it seems she misplaced it.

Any help would be much appreciated :) Thanks anyway for taking the time to read this.

When leaving an airport to fly internationally, how many hours before the flight do you have to be at the airport? I think it's 2 hours but I am unsure.

I've heard from people that there are no more movies being made after Twilight (a.k.a New Moon, Eclipse or Breaking Dawn) because Stephanie Meyer plagiarised. Anyone know if this is true or false?

Today I was messing around with mates and my friend and I were running as fast as we could, then suddenly we jumped and were meant to land next to our friends. She landed fine but when I went to land, i don't know what happened (my leg gave way at the last minute or I moved it as i went to land) and It hurt SO much when I landed, I couldn't walk. The whole day I was hobbling around the centre and I'm wondering what happened to my leg. I can barely walk (only if i keep my leg DEAD straight) and if it bends just a little forward or a little back, it hurts so much it brings tears to my eyes.. The pain is situated in my knee.

Anyone know what happened to my knee? :( It's extremely painful..
