I have several high-quality manual-focus lenses from my Minolta X-570 SLR ... I am thinking about getting a new DLSR, and want to use these lenses.

QUESTION: Which current generation DLSR cameras have after-market adapters for Minolta's SR lenses?

It's Pacific alder, glue-laminated, 1 3/8" thick.

I want to make the door open the other way, and don't have the user manual.

I thought I could just move the hinges to the other side of the door, but although the frame has the right holes covered with a plastic cap, the door doesn't have any place to move the hinges to. There aren't enough holes for the hinge screws.

Now what? Do I have to take the door apart?

I want to replace an outlet, but the gorilla who installed the current outlet stripped the threads in the holes of the box that are supposed to hold the mounting screws for the new outlet.

I remember special threaded tabs that could be slipped over the mounting holes to provide threads. Do they still exist, and if so,where can I find them? I don't want to get into replacing the whole electrical box.

What is the easiest way to remove this kind of drywall anchor? I have several dozen of the stupid things to remove.

I have doubts about the sustainability of the vegan life - it's one thing to become a vegan after a childhood of being an omnivore, but another for a vegan to produce children, raise them on a vegan diet, and have them healthy enough to reproduce.

Can anyone name a long-lasting vegan civilization or group?

By long-lasting, I mean at least 5 generations of nothing but vegans. Groups that accept members from the non-vegan population don't count ... they are importing omnivores to maintain reproductive health.

India doesn't count - they use milk and eggs.

Please identify this statue

The vet recommended we try this for our 10-year old female dog, who is having hip problems. She's an unknown breed from a shelter, not overweight, but having problems getting up from her rug.

She has always had mild hip displasia - has that funny bunny-hop run, but is otherwise in great shape for an old dog.

If anyone has tried it, about how long did it take before the results showed up.

My roomate loves Indian foods, especially curry. Unfortunately I am allergic to cumin.

Does anyone have a recipe, or links to recipes for curry that don't need cumin?
