  • When making calls/texting internationally with Skype, does the receiving person get charged?

    I've got Skype credit, and I was going to use it to call/text a friend's mobile in the UK. I understand it deducts from my Skype credit the appropriate per minute/message cost, but does it do the same to them? or will it just be a regular call for them using minutes/texts like usual?

  • what is your opinion on shito ryu karate, and can you explain some about it?

    i was in jiu jitsu for a few months, but i kind of got tired of it because of the lack of structure and discipline along with there being no one within 50 pounds of me.

    there is, however, a shito ryu karate school recognized by the japan karate do organization that seems interesting. i am taking an interest in it, but i dont really know much about it and wikipedia doesnt do a very good job of explaining it.

    what are classes like? what sorts of techniques are taught? are there weapons (at any level)? is it better/worse than kenpo? would being a short, 15 year old, 120 pound male be a disadvantage?

  • horrible newsletters to sign my horrible friend up for for revenge?

    i had an email address off my friends server that forwarded the emails to my regular account. for the past couple of months, i haven't been receiving any emails from the things that i signed up to with that email address. i thought my friend had deactivated it. he came over the other day and signed into his email on my computer. he forgot to sign out. i looked today and i found all these things with my name on them from places like myspace i had used that email on. i now have access to his parents email addresses direct from him, his itunes account information including the card, and practically everything else he has gmail related.

    on one other occasion i got an email from myspace saying i had a password request. i now know it was him getting it and viewing it on his server before he changed it to forward to his account.

    my question: what are some newsletters and things i can do to him for revenge.

    oh, and i think he stole 5 dollars out of my wallet when he was over here.

    any ideas on revenge would be appreciated.

  • can't remember learned techniques?

    Ive been to one BJJ class and i have already forgotten all but one move. i was struggling with the moves in class and i have already forgotten them. i went to a workshop with a friend a few weeks back and i can only remember one of those as well. i still struggled, but not as much as i did last night. even watching a youtube video on how to do a move and then walking upstairs a few minutes later has me forgetting them. my friend who has ben doing it for two months says he can remember all of the moves.

    my question: should i just give up because i cant remember anything and most likely will never be able to? is there any way to improve my memory?

  • afraid im going to suck and not be able to juggle everything?

    im really wanting to take muay thai and BJJ (at the same place one after another) and im really afraid ill never get good at it and i will suck forever. im also afraid i wont be able to juggle schoolwork (honors physical science and honors English), classes, training, and working out. working out in the mornings isnt a possibility during the week because of school and its pretty much impossible for early mornings on the weekends for a variety of reasons. is at 11-12 ish in the morning an OK time for running and stuff? on to the working out part. we dont really have any exercise equipment(my parents are talking about getting a treadmill, a weight set thingy, and maybe a bench. would this be enough? is equipment necessary to work out or can things like pushups, crunches, and what not be suitable, even for a little while?

    sorry if that was a little rambly.

  • problem with firefox?

    i was researching for a project for school, and a site i went to redirected me to something else and an official type window popped up and said i was open to malicious attack and asked me click the button to get a free virus scan. knowing this to be a scam, i hit no thanks" and it says "are you sure? you are open to attack." and at that point i know not to click it, so i go to task manager. something about needing to put something in a certain drive popped up from windows and i just hit continue and closed firefox. now, when i go to open firefox, it reloads the malicious site because i had multiple tabs open and mozilla saves the session and when i try to close out of the malicious tab, it asks if im sure because im open to attack and i know im not supposed to click what it wants me to click.

    my question: how do i start firefox without the saved tabs?
