I'm kind of baffled, I was expecting Colbert or Serenity but certainly not tranquility.... what was Nasa thinking?

I'd like to know your opinion on how much I should ask for my old computer. I might just give it away to someone in need but I'd like help to figure out the value of it.

Description:

Intel P4 socket 478 3.0Ghz (overclocked at 3.2Ghz)

Asrock 915GLP4 mobo.

2x1gb of OCZ DDR400 Ram

ATI dedicated card 512MB GDDR2

80Gb Hardrive running at 7,200 RPM

17 Inch CRT monitor

Speaker, fairly new microphone and webcam.

Windows XP upgrade CD

DVDRW ( double layer burner but can't burn 16x speed dvds )

450W power supply

Floppy with Mutli card ( sd ect... ) reading capability.

I'm thinking this is worth $200-$300. What's your 2 cents on it?

Apple isn't allowing flash on IPhones and IPod Touch.

How do you feel about this? I'm personally very ticked off with their way of controlling everything... I'm really considering returning my iphone for a G1. Thoughts?

I am about to buy a new battery for my Panasonic Lumix FZ18 camera.

Best deal I found so far is at Batteries Plus ( http://www.batteriesplus.com/ ).

I get two batteries for the price of one....only $29.99 for two lumix fz18 battery... Does anyone know if I can get a better deal elsewhere? Thanks!

Seems it takes a very long time to respond and sometimes times out. This isn't happening with other search engines or websites....

Que ce passe t'il si un etrangé en visite touristique, venant d'un pays hors UE tombe malade en France?

Par example, si un mexicain, americain ou canadien visite la France et doit etre hospitalisé. Doit il payer tous les frais?

Si vous conaissez un site sur le sujet, merci de l'indiquer.

Whether it's a positive or negative event, what is the most rememberable event of this year to you?

I am certainly getting a little upset by it.

I guess I could just turn my speaker off, still I don't think it's right to impose sound on me like that.

I've seen the option to turn it off, so please don't tell me that.

Two friend and I went to a hotel:

We had to pay $30 for a double room so we each payed $10 (3x10=30)

The owner apparently forgot to mention to the receptionist that this night was on special for $25/night.

The receptionist brought us the five dollar back, we gave him two dollars as a tip out of the five and kept 3 dollars (1 dollar each)

So we now each payed $9 per person (9x3=27) + we gave two dollar back to the receptionist (27+2=29)

What in the world happen to the last dollar?

Happy thanksgiving thinking about that! :-)

My Saturn will shake if I am at a stop light in first gear with my clutch pedal down. Switching to Neutral will stop it from shaking. Just wondering if there is any mechanics here that would give me a clear explanation why this is happening. I push the pedal to the bottom, it still shakes, switch to neutral, it stops. This problem happens sporadically. I know My car is getting old....:-(
