To save some money, I recently bought a EOS 60d used from B&H online. The on/off switch is acting weird, and every-time I turn it on, the switch has to be moved a little in the off direction to come on. If my thumb grazes the switch, even the slightest, it goes off.

I checked with Canon's website, and using the cameras serial number I discovered that the camera is under warranty and thus the repair would be free.

However, I bought the camera used. Does that make a difference? Wound Canon know? If they knew I bought it used, would that void the warranty and could they later charge me with a bill? Any other suggestions on my problem.

FYI I only bought the body because I already had a few lenses.

After watching all of Firefly, which is anothe great series, I decided to feed my sci-fi fix by watching Battlestar Gallactica.

If space is an oxygen-less vaccum, than how come ships catch fire when shot at? Don't things require oxygen to burn?

Also, about the water shortage episode. If the tank broke, wouldn't the water just instantly freeze because space is really cold? And if gravity requires LOTS of mass, how do the land ships and walk around normally in the Battlestar?

Just curious.

I recently watched Apocalypse Now Redux version, and was amazed at the French plantation scene. When the one man said that the French soldiers grenade's were sabotaged by the "french women for Vietnam", is that true?

Also, did the French really lose many battles to be that defensive? Defensive enough to call the Americans fight the "biggsest fight for nothing in history"? Whatever happened to the French plantations, did they eventually wise up and leave?

Right now, I have Criket Wirelss because it is cheap and college students love cheap. However, I'm tired of the horrible network. I'm always going into roaming and the calls that I do get are choppy, I've even lost voicemail calls because the network will drop coverage.

I want a low-cost, prepaid option and was considiring Boost Mobile, and I live in St. Louis.

Any thoughts/opinions from actual Boost Mobile users?

My old man has some buddies that were in the war, and they claimed they heard stories of the women (prostitutes) hiding razor blades to inflict the most amount of damage on the American G.I.'s. I didn't believe him.

If you fought in the Vietnam War, or know of any documented cases of this, please shed some light on this argument.

And if you are a veteran, from the bottom of my heart, thanks for you service to this great country.

Now that I have a 97' 4-cylinder S10 I just want to know a few options out there for me. So far it's already got a cold air intake. I wanted to know if you could supercharge, or maybe turbo a four cylinder. Or maybey headers or a cat back exhaust system. In short, what are my options?

"I have never seen a wild thing feel sorry for itself. A little bird will fall dead, frozen from a bough, without ever having felt sorry for itself"

I heard in The Great Debaters, an excellent movie by the way, and had no idea what it could mean. Also, what is "bough", I thought it was a branch or bundle of leaves and twigs????

Ideas, suggestions,

In my opinion, I think it'll be Mir. Then again, I just started watching MMA about a year ago. I do know that Mir already stopped Lesnar once with a leg lock, and I think he can do it again. Sure Lesnar did beat The Natural, and sure he's freakishly athletic, but I think that Mir can still stop him.

Opinions, ideas.

I signed up on a site (Spreadshirts) that allows you to design then sell shirts and various designs. To register I need to give them my routing number and I have no idea what it is.

All I know is my account is at US bank in St. Louis MO.

Any help?????

I'm doing a project on Epicureanism and I needed to find a song and movie to compare the philosophy with.

I MIGHT choose Religilous because they both talk about not fearing religion, and both kind of talk about how believing in religion is one of mans downfalls.

Is this to far a leap to connect the two? Am I off base comparing the two?

comments....suggestions...anything???? thanks

The tenant i'm looking for should be about:

Carefree, seeking pleasure over pain as a way to happyness

The song I'm choosing is "Don't Worry" by Bob Marly

The Epicureans also believed that the soul died after death (being made of atoms) and the gods shouldn't be fearead because anything they did was just an act of nature, not a punishment. Any suggestions? Help?

First off, the game needs to have a real world free roam where I can just drive around to kill time, like in NFS 2 and the Midnight Clubs. Secondly, it needs to have pretty good graphics and a selection of cars.

My laptop is XPS M1530 with an NVIDIA GE FORCE 8600 GT with 4 gigs of ram.

Any help would be great.

If you don't know what epicureanism is here is a quick definition of the philisophical though:

They believed that studying philosophy should be done to make you happy. They also believed that wanting led to sadness, so if you don't want anything, you'll never be sad when you don't get it. Another tenant led that there is no heaven, hell, or soul, the only true things in nature were all material things of matter. Any ideas into how this affects us today?

I'm doing a paper on the media in times of crisis after watching the documentary When The Levees Broke by Spike Lee. Any ideas, Research, opinions. Anything would be greatly appreciated.

It's for a worksheet I have to complet.

Also if you know this one,

Do hockey sticks have to be less than 55 cm?

What was the name of that the French Explorers gave to the game played by the Indians?

What was the year that the first formal hockey game was played in Kingston Ontario?

What was the position in hockey that was removed from the game in 1909?

I think the airdate was 2/12/09 and missed the episode. I just wanted a recap before I watched tonights episode.

I'm doing a paper on the influence of media and media bias in times of crisis. The paper is concerning the Spike Lee movie When The Levee Breaks. In the movie Spike Lee shows media biases and influence around the Hurricane Katrina disaster. Any ideas or points of interest concerning the subject.

If you could, could you please cite any sources you used.

I've always lived by the mantra that I can do anything I put my mind to. Now it seems as if someone, who shall remain nameless, is trying to point all the problems and issues of me going off to college. Is it just because he/she is themself is unhappy/unsuccessful, or is it something more. Is there any research or psychology work done on the subject.

By the way I just found out I've earned an academic full ride scholarship.

I've seen lots of people with their initials tattooed on upper half of their calf, I just wanted to know if this was symbolic of everything. If not, do you like the look of it, or would you hate it.

Probably going to get one sometime this week.
