Looking for a good compilation album of 20's, 30's and 40's and even 50's music?
I've developed something of an appreciation for old-timey music lately (for want of a better term), however I dont know very much, i just know I like the style. Im talking the real big band, jazz, crooner, crackly recording type music. The Andrews sisters might be a good example of what I mean. Can anyone suggest any good compilations of popular music from those times? I know ive really narrowed my question down by giving you 4 decades to work with! So i know there wont be a single album that covers these but any suggestions appreciated.
Cheers!

1 AnswerMedicine9 years agoWhat is a validator compliant way of getting a double break without using <p> in XHTML/CSS?
I was finishing a website tonight (the first ive built from scratch using css primarily) and when i went to validate it i was getting errors which i understood but have now left me in a bind. The main group were where i had a vertical line of images being used as navigation buttons and i was seperating them individually with paragraph. When i validated however it appears that you cant use <p> with <a>. I therefore took out the p tags and used <br/> at the end of each line but now theyre too close together. I would use a double line break but i seem to recall that being quite bad practice.
Can anyone clear this up for me? Is there a CSS method that you use in this scenario instead?

2 AnswersProgramming & Design10 years agoLooking for tutorials on how to make a basic photo look more stylised in photoshop/illustrator?
Basically im trying to make a simple logo with a very basic object in the centre. The problem is the image of the object is actually a photo which looks very out of place in a logo, i would like it to be more stylised and basic, if that makes any sense? Could anyone point me in the direction of a useful tutorial in either photoshop or illustrator to do this?
Cheers all.

Not sure if ill be able to provide enough info for this question but i was reading a news report recently about how the Egyptian rebels had been following the teachings of a civil resistance book written by an academic in Boston, it was/is supposedly the go to handbook on how to resist an authorotative power without resorting to violence but i cannot remember his name and its driving me nuts.

1 AnswerRadio1 decade agoDo small sites require grids for geophysics?
Possibly a bit of a long shot but im doing a mock excavation proposal for a site here in Ireland and i've chosen a fairly small site to focus on but while im confident that it requires resistivity and magnetometry surveying i've no idea if a grid is needed.
Any ideas?
1 AnswerAnthropology1 decade agoIs it worth renewing a green card?
Have had a green card since i was a kid (which is now expired) because my mother applied for them but circumstances changed and we never ended up moving. To be perfectly honest i dont know a whole lot about them so just out of curiosity i thought i'd ask a few questions on here.
Couple of questions. Firstly, hypothetically were i to renew it, am i even allowed do that seeing as i had my shot and didnt take it? Secondly does having a green card specifically mean i have to be moving permanently to the states? The reason i ask that one is because i hope to live in America for a short period some time soon and i was just thinking whether it would make sense to get a short term visa or see if the green card can help me at all. Obviously if the answer is the green card is only for people who wish to reside in America permanently then i wont renew it because i like where i live and dont want to risk any hassle from immigration.
Sorry for the long winded question, just curious. Any info appreciated.
