  • Is there a word that essentially means 'convinced of something false'?

    Like you think something true but it's not. Unlike brainwashed, as you came to believe it because you want it to be true - nobody told you this false thing.

    Tell me if this makes no sense or if you know such a word (or even a good phrase).

  • Good TV shows for me?

    I want to know of some good TV shows. Please read, or do not answer...

    I like

    Firefly, Battlestar Gallactica, Heroes (although not the 3rd season, so much), Dexter, Six Feet Under, Veronica Mars...

    I also like Degrassi Junior High/High (not TNG), The Simpsons, Futurama, Family Guy, 30 Rock... But these are more comedy, and I dont watch these too often.

    Ok, but I dont like that much: Pushing Daises, Lost, Law and Order, House, Angel, Buffy, Prison Break, Weeds

    I dont like Gossip Girl, The OC, Smallville, Supernatural. Not really into Police/Detective shows.

    So If you have any Tv shows that you think I might like, that arn't above and are not out-dated. Please do tell...

    maybe with a short explanation as to why (eg. Deep plot, interesting Characters).

  • Food Pyramid - How important is it to stick to?

    When you're not hungry, because of previous meal fulfillment - should I eat another piece of fruit to get my 2 servings of fruit per day or easily wait for dinner and skip the fruit. (I've already eaten 1 serving)

    Should you eat to get your servings of everything even when not so hungry? Or eat when/or as hungry and miss out on you're recommend serving?

    I think the latter makes sense, but perhaps its better to get an extra piece of fruit in..What if one often skips their daily servings due to this?

    What are the opinions of others? (Please answer in a sentence or avoid 1 or 2 word answers)

  • Downloading Transmission. Slow - how to open port? (Mac)?

    I have Mac OS X 10.5.7

    I have broadband, and both an airport and ethernet connection options.

    My download speeds have been ranging from 6 -50 KB/s. Which is extremly slow.

    So my port is closed and I have tried the troubleshooting help. The airport utility will not recognize my working internet.

    And whenever Im trieing to change my IP address, my internet stops.

    This is the first time I've used bittorrented and used transmission.

    If you need any more information, please tell me what you need to know and I'll try to add the info.

  • Pollock - artistic merit opinions needed.?

    http://www.mcah.columbia.edu/dbcourses/item.cgi?te...

    If people comment a sentence or 2 on each of Originality, Skill, Meaning, Beauty, Emotion and their Verdict of the hyperlinked piece.

    Here is my brief analysis and example...

    Originality

    It has influences of surrealism - probably from Salvidor Dali. Landscapes have been done before. The picture is not stolen but its not overly original.

    Skill

    It seems to have been created with watercolour and brush strokes. It needed a fair bit of skill to create.

    Meaning

    Basically a dreamlike landscape and it has no obvious meaning.

    Beauty

    Its very flowing. It the colours are nice.

    Emotion

    There could be confusion, boredom or sadness in this picture.

    Verdict: It deserves artistic merit.

    And if you could leave you name or how you know something about art. (eg. Sir Bob, Artist or Jill M., studied art)

  • What do you think of this short poem?

    This is my first one.

    I lost the book of answers,

    it flew away from sight,

    i realised when I chased it,

    that my search was not quite right,

    I jumped off the rainbow bridge,

    waking to my room,

    all the book of answers was,

    my imagination,

    i assume.

    The fourth line looks a little choppy to me, but i dont read poetry so i really dont know. Constructive criticism please.

  • Cat was playing killing mouse. But she wont kill it.?

    My cat keeps half playing half fighting with this mouse. When she left it, I put it in a container.

    The mouse's back legs dont seem to work and it seems pretty freaked.

    I know my Cat wouldn't kill it, without dragging the process out for a day or two.

    Should I put it out of its misery? or should i do somthing else. What is the best way to put down a mouse?

  • Wired Xbox 360 Controller - will it work for my PC games?

    Does it only work for some games? I have Fable TLC, The Sims 2 and Oblivion.

    Ps. I put in the set-up disk first. And all i've been able to do with it so far is press the Xbox icon for help.
