  • Coaxial cable input on tv is broke?

    In my bed room i have an older tube style hd tv that the coaxial input broke off and there is no real way to repair it. I need a way to watch my basic cable through it as i dont have a cable box nor want to get one from the cable company and have to pay for the service that goes along with it. I remember in the 90's using a vcr as a tv tuner all the time and now it seems impossible to find one for a decent price online so that option is out.

    My question is can i use one of those analog to digital converter boxes, i notice it takes a coaxial as an input could that read the signal coming from my cable and i use that to change my channels as i only have like 30 channels but this is my bedroom tv looking to spend as little as possible to save it

  • Help with this Simple Java Program?

    Here is what I am trying to get

    Here is a sample interaction between a user and the program you will write in the Lab4Part2 class (user inputs are in bold):

    Do you want to play a game? y

    I am thinking of a number between 1 and 100. Try to guess it.

    What's your guess? 50

    50 is too small

    What's your guess? 75

    75 is too big

    What's your guess? 62

    62 is too small

    What's your guess? 69

    69 is too big

    What's your guess? 65

    65 is too big

    What's your guess? 63

    63 is too small

    What's your guess? 64

    You've got it in 7 guesses. That was ok!

    Do you want to play another game? y

    I am thinking of a number between 1 and 100. Try to guess it.

    What's your guess? 50

    50 is too big

    What's your guess? 25

    25 is too small

    What's your guess? 37

    37 is too small

    What's your guess? 43

    You've got it in 4 guesses. That was amazing!

    Do you want to play another game? n

    Goodbye!

    The difference between the programs in Part 1 and Part 2 is that now the program repeatedly asks the user if he/she wants to play a game; if the user enters anything but 'y', the program terminates; otherwise the program allows the user to play a game before asking again if the user wants to play another game.

    The Problem i am running into is once it gets to the end of the program it doesn't let me enter yes to restart the entire thing

    Here is the code i have so far

    import java.util.Scanner;

    public class Lab4Part2

    {

    public static void main(String[] args)

    {

    Scanner keyboard = new Scanner(System.in);

    String doYouWantToPlay;

    System.out.print("Do you want to play a game? ");

    doYouWantToPlay = keyboard.nextLine();

    while (doYouWantToPlay.equals ("y") || doYouWantToPlay.equals ("yes")) {

    System.out.println();

    System.out.println("I am thinking of a number between 1 and 100. Try to guess it.");

    System.out.println();

    int x = (int)(100 * Math.random ()) + 1;

    int guessCount = 0,guess;

    System.out.print("What's your guess? ");

    guess = keyboard.nextInt();

    while (guess != x) {

    if (guess > x) {

    System.out.println(guess + " is too big!");

    guessCount = guessCount + 1;

    System.out.print("What's your guess? ");

    guess = keyboard.nextInt();

    }

    else if (guess < x) {

    System.out.println(guess + " is too small!");

    guessCount = guessCount + 1;

    System.out.print("What's your guess? ");

    guess = keyboard.nextInt();

    }

    }

    if (guess == x) {

    guessCount = guessCount + 1;

    if (guessCount == 1) {

    System.out.print("You've got it in " + guessCount + " guesses! That was lucky!");

    System.out.println("Do you want to play another game? ");

    doYouWantToPlay = keyboard.nextLine();

    }

    else if (guessCount > 1 && guessCount < 5) {

    System.out.print("You've got it in " + guessCount + " guesses! That was amazing!");

    System.out.println("Do you want to play another game? ");

    doYouWantToPlay = keyboard.nextLine();

    }

    else if (guessCount > 6 && guessCount < 8) {

    System.out.print("You've got it in " + guessCount + " guesses! That was ok!");

    System.out.println("Do you want to play another game? ");

    doYouWantToPlay = keyboard.nextLine();

    }

    else if (guessCount > 7 && guessCount < 10) {

    System.out.print("You've got it in " + guessCount + " guesses! That was pretty bad!");

    System.out.println("Do you want to play another game? ");

    doYouWantToPlay = keyboard.nextLine();

    }

    else if (guessCount > 10) {

    System.out.print("You've got it in " + guessCount + " guesses! This is not your game!");

    System.out.println("Do you want to play another game? ");

    doYouWantToPlay = keyboard.nextLine();

    }

    }

    System.out.println("Goodbye!");

    }

    }

    }

  • Ford and Ford Stock at this moment?

    Should I still buy Ford stock? I know I have missed the opportunity of making big money on Ford stock and it seems high at this moment. If the economy turns around sooner rather than later, people will begin buying more cars and I believe Ford will get the most business because of the future car line up and the fact that they didn't take any government money. I think GM and Chrysler have really alienated themselves and Ford will be the company to come out on top. So really my question is where is the ceiling for Ford stock could it still double and even quadruple if sales and the economy go right?

  • How sad is it that Minnesota can't sell out a home playoff game!!?

    This is just pathetic if this game was in Philadelphia the game would have been sold out the first day the tickets were available, this just shows that some markets really don't deserve their NFL teams if you can't sell out a damn playoff game!

    Consider an ordinary carbon atom in your body, containing 6

    protons and 6 neutrons in its nucleus. Write a brief essay describing the history of this carbon atom. Some questions your essay should answer include:When did the individual protons and neutrons first fuse? When and where did the final carbon nucleus form? How did the carbon atom make its way to Earth? How did it come to inhabit your body?

  • This makes no sense and i can't figure out either of these!!!?

    1. Suppose that you have used a Cepheid variable star as a "standard candle" to compute the distance to a particular galaxy. The distance you computed is r = 35 mpc. Much to your embarrassment you find that Cepheid variable star has a luminosity L that is actually twice the luminosity you assumed when making your calculation. Is the galaxy closer or farther than you originally calculated? What is the true distance to the galaxy?

    and

    2. If the Hubble constant is H0=71 km/sec/mpc then the hubble time is 1/H0 = 14 billion years. Edwin Hubble himself because he grossly underestimated the distance to galaxies believed that the hubble constant was H0=500 km/sec/mpc. For H0= 500 km/sec/mpc what is 1/h0 in billions of years?

  • What will the Philadelphia Eagles do with the secondary?

    I'm wondering what the Eagles are going to do with the secondary since the signing of Samuel. I mean Brown and Sheppard were already a very good pair of CB's and adding a guy like Samuel someone is changing position, or possibly getting traded from the team??

    What do you think. Maybe Brown at SS and soon to be future FS when Dawkins is done??
