So I recently installed both Ubuntu and Kbuntu onto my computer after about a year of being frustrated with vista (shocking i know :) Anywayy, I cant get any of the visual effects to work. On Ubuntu, i get the error "effects could not be enabled". Ive googled the problem, but every explanation i've read seems overly complicated. Due to my complete lack of knowledge about computers, this information is of no use to me, and often leaves my frustrated and confused. I was wondering if it had anything to do with my crappy graphics card (Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator 950)? Any info would be much appreciated, thanks.

What is the difference between the two words? Are they just interchangeable synonyms?

Hey, so I recently purchased a Briggs & Stratton Lawn Mower (I bought it from lowes just a couple days ago). This afternoon, I mowed my lawn for the first time with this new lawnmower. After mowing half of my lawn, I went inside for a quick break. When I returned to finish cutting my lawn, I found out that the recoil started in my lawnmower was stuck. When pulled, it only comes about halfway out. I'm afraid to pull it too hard because I'm afraid it make break, and I'm not really sure what to do. Can someone help me?

Okay, being really bad with computers, I have a serious problem that I have no idea how to fix. A couple of weeks ago this computer (a xp) was infected with System Security. I was then unable to access this comuter for a couple weeks. When I returned to this computer, I found that all traces of System Security seemed to be gone. The annoying popups were no longer there. Still every time I try to open an application, including Word, Excel or System Restore, theres a screen that says "Choose the program you wish to use to open this file". Having no knowledge of computers, so could anyone help me fix this!? Any assistance would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Just outta curiosity, which game do you guys think is better?

Hey good people. I'm currently a sophomore in high school and I'm kinda freaking out about my grades and collage stuff I'm going to have to do next year as a Junior. Last year I took the SAT II bio and got a 740, and this year I plan to take the SAT II physics and math. I kinda slacked off last term and ended with a 4.4 weighted GPA. Can anyone put that into context? Is that good? Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks...

Algeria Term 3

Present Day essay

The Algerian civil war was an especially dark and bloody period in Algerian national history. It was not only a time of political unrest, but of excessive bloodshed as well. Thousands upon thousands deaths were the result of constant fighting between various rival political factions. All the while the Algerian government attempted to restored peace to Algeria by attempting to negotiate with these rival factions to restore peace and order to the war torn country. The Algerian civil war was a bloody and nasty conflict initially sparked by the cancellation of the election for the assembly by the army. The conflict was eventually resolved when the different rival groups eventually collapsed among themselves, which finally cleared the way democracy to arise in Algeria.

The events leading up to the start of the civil war begin initially with the forming of the FIS, the Islamic Salvation Front, a political party formed in Algeria. The leaders of the party, whom were obviously Islamists, wanted to make Islamic religious laws and teachings the basis for the Algerian government (Zurlo 33). During the 1991 political elections, the FIS began to pull ahead of the FLN (National Liberation Front) in the election. Military leaders in the army feared that if FIS were to win the election, they would make Algeria a theocracy. To prevent this from occurring, the army decided to cancel the elections for the elections. The powerfilled military then removed the then serving President Chadli Bendjedid from power, and went onto arrest thousands of FIS members. From the ensuing anger, frustration and chaos of the canceled election, Islamic gurerrila groups formed to fight the government.
