  • When does a judge decide a case and when does a jury decide a case?

    Just doing some studying for my intro to criminal justice class. My question might be a little confusing to some so I want to clarify. What effects who decides a case? I think that it has to do with what type of court it goes to. I know this question might be stupid but the whole court system in The United States blows my mind sometimes! Anybody have input on this question?

  • Is this computer a decent deal?

    http://richmond.craigslist.org/sys/1754240655.html

    Just looking for some responses. I offered him $450 and he said yeah if I can do it tomorrow. Any other opinions? I was gonna use it for all around work and gaming. Games like WoW and Lord of the Rings Online. Nothing too intense.

    Making sure I'm not getting ripped off here!

  • Survival fiction book reccomendations?

    I'm looking for some books that are similiar to My Side of the Mountain or like Brian's Winter. Really just a book about being in the wilderness and surviving/adventuring. Those are the kind of books I'm into. Can anybody reccomend any or find some? I'm in 11th grade but middle school books are fine as are higher reading levels.

  • Can I use an ethernet coupler in order to extend my reach of my wired 360 for xbox live?

    I've been looking into putting my 360 into my room and having my cord reach from downstairs all the way up to my room. I know a coupler is sort of like an extender where I would just plug in 2 cords and it would basically become one. I've also read that you can't use them for 360's and it will say you aren't connected to the internet. Does anybody know if a coupler will work for an Xbox 360 connection?

  • In your opinion/experience, does adding eggs to burgers moisten them up?

    Just wondering. I'm usually more into buying leaner meat and not adding an egg into it. Specifically tonight I'm going to make turkey burgers though and it's going to be my first time. Do you guys like to add bread crumbs and eggs in your burgers? To me, that sounds more like meatballs! I am going to be adding cut up onions and maybe some bell peppers into my burgers. I heard that helps keep them moist as well.

    What are your thoughts?

  • Can I use my boot disk on another computer?

    Here's the situation. I got a computer from my mom's friend that has a TON of viruses and such on it. I thought, "Oh yeah, no problem. I'll just go through and delete the virus she has.". I was surprised to see how many viruses she has. I'm pretty good with computers and getting rid of viruses, but after seeing how bad it is it might just be faster to wipe it.

    My question is, Since I have my windows XP boot disk here - Can I use it to wipe another windows XP using computer?

    Thanks!

  • Do I need a new sound card?

    Hello I've been gaming on my PC for years. There is voice chat in many of them and when I try to talk it just sounds like fuzz. It's not like it's just bad quality. It just sounds like I'm in a hurricane and no voice at all. I wiped my computer a day or two ago and reinstalled the drivers for my onboard sound card and voice chat worked for a few hours on my game and then a few hours later it stopped. I'm guessing the problem is my sound card. How do I know what sound card will be compatible with this old PC? I think it's a PCI sound card that I have currently. Also, if I buy a new sound card will it take up a new slot?

I want to wipe my computer for various reasons and I have the CD that is to reninstall my OS (XP). I put the CD in and then I press F12, like all the tutorials I've watched, and I am trying to make it boot from the PC. I get something like this:

    Boot Device Menu

    1. Normal

    2.Primary Master Drive

    3. Diskette Drive

    4. Hard-Disk Drive C:

    5. IDE CD rom device

  • Can you help me factor these polynomials?

    32a^2b^2+16ab^2+2b^2

    4a^3b-40a^2b^2+100ab^3

    4a^4b^3-a^2b

    I did lot of problems just factoring on this worksheet to earn extra credit but they didn't have variables like these! Can you tell me the answers and try to explain? showing your work somewhat would also help. I know it's a lot of work for 10 points but... I'd really appreciate it!

  • Problem with dual monitoring?

    Okay, so I come to Yahoo because I know you guys are pretty good at this stuff. I just setup a dual monitor setup where I want to play WoW on one and just maybe browse the web on the other. I have a problem, though. When World of Warcraft isn't in windows mode I can't browse the web on the other monitor. When I set WoW to windows mode it laags. I was wondering if there was a way that I could do this without having to play in windows mode.

  • Did I just blink, or did I sleep?

    Does this ever happen to you? You're laying in bed, pretty tired, and you are... watching TV or something or even just laying lay and it feels like a second goes by, literally, and your alarm goes off and its time to go back to work/school? Ugh that happened to me last night and I wanted to die! (not really)

  • A few computer questions.?

    Hey I am looking to replace my 6 year old computer that is outdated. I have a basic understanding of hard drive, RAM, Video card. So basically I got a few questions because I was looking into customizing the computers on dell.com and I don't want to shovel out my money if I can reuse some of my ram here.

    When you buy a computer with DDR2 RAM can I add the RAM I bought for my current computer as long as it doesn't reach the maximum amount the computer can run?

    So basically is DDR2 RAM compatible with DDR RAM? <- I think the speeds or frequencies have to be the same, right?

    How can you tell which processor is faster, pentium, celeron all those words confuse me! :)
