Trying to improve my understanding of the evolution of this range, which cab came first and what do you know about the evolution to what it is today? Do you know any good resources I can look at?

i'm out of date so bear with me please, i have a couple of older machines i dont want to lose the data from, nor how they work and are laid out, 

recently been looking at converting them to virtual machines, to host on my laptop on demand, but my laptop doesn't have a great deal of storage, would like to get rid of my old tower for space for example, does anyone know any economical cloud services i could host these virtual machines on on demand? ideally 4tb plus

or is there another suggestion you may have?

So it drives me crazy, it can t just be me, and this little thing drives me mad... For example, rice should be on the plate before curry or chilli, not plastered on top.... If i were having a meal with baked beans, it should be on the side of the plate, just leave room.... Some people actually dish it out on top of everything.... As if the beans took them by surprise and didn t have a moment to make space! To me the meal is ruined because everything MUST now taste of beans, I do like to mix sometimes, but sometimes I like enjoying individual flavours, when it happens, the meal may as well be a plate of ash for all the upset it causes me,

What is wrong with these people... Do they have no standards!

I have turned down some beautiful leftovers my angel of a wife saved for me because she dumped the rice on top in the container....if I d eaten it I d have hated it... Better to give it to the mother in law and remember the heavenly meal she made the night before

in England Mp's are discussing shortlists which exclude men in order to increase the number of women in parliament, given that both men and women have the right vote for their MP,

shouldn't the focus be on encouraging more women to stand for the position and let democracy take its course?

after all women are intelligent in their own right and if they want to vote specifically for a woman, that's their right. as it is for men.

conversely, how would women react to the reverse being enforced?

it would insult me if government decided that i was not smart enough to vote for the person to represent my needs in parliament and restricts my choices accordingly

personally it seems that the assumption is that EVERY woman in the country can outperform the best man in the country,

i consider myself reasonably intelligent but im not so deluded to believe im smarter than each and every woman in England.

there are men smarter than some women and there are women smarter than some men, it does not mean intelligence

Men>Women =False

Women>Men =False

_Men=Women_ Is True!

historically maintenance was granted to women after the breakdown of a marriage, as women forfeited any property entering wedlock, and were viewed as unable to look after themselves;

This is now out of date, women have the same rights and can own property

now in a few cases men can expect maintenance from a more wealthy spouse. i refer only to childless divorces

My question is for a feminist perspective;

assuming all assets are divided fairly...

alimoney/maintenance is a payment to look after someone because they are weaker than their partner and UNABLE to meet the performance of their partner; should alimoney be treated with disdain as an acknowledgement of weakness?

some believe it is their right to money after divorce is finalised but shouldnt they recognise the relationship is over? i wouldnt pay money to an old friend for a reason like "i knew them"

How Do Men View Alimoney (maintenance)?

How Do Women View Alimoney (maintenance)?

What Place Do These Payments Have In Modern Society?

i want a large toilet bowl for my new bathroom. because for reasons i wont go into normal toilets are not very anatomically helpful for men,

i need a large opening and good depth so i dont have to hold myself in a funny angle, we are all guys in our house

where can i get one in the uk?

if you cant tell me where can you tell me who makes toilets? ideally british made toilets as my plumber says european ones sold in most places are quite small

I remember vaguely seeing an advert for an iron which heats an iron up on demand and just heats the plate so it doesnt get hot enough to burn the clothes, (ive lost too many good trousers) can you name the technology/ make/model? i think i may have seen it on the gadget show?

my Girlfriend has chickenpox (i had as a child)

what can i take to her to help soothe the symptoms?

hello

i watched a tv show a while ago where they used pig skin to make leather, i think it was set in poland

as we in the uk use so much imported goods, do we use it?

is pig leather discreetly used in clothing and if so

is it not offensive to muslims to come into contact with pig skin,

so should muslims steer clear of leather unless the animal it is made from is prominently displayed?

i'm not muslim just curious.

hello, i am a noob when it comes to linux, i have just installed fedora 14 32 bit on an old pc, but flash drive not present when connected, keyboard and mouse ok, just no usb sticks, any ideas?

not present on the desktop or the "computer" location,

confused by some guides as how to do root stuff on other guides

if so would the us government be liable to being sued by other countries and their peoples for denial of service?

i use halogen gu10 bulbs on our 230v mains circuit, it is not a practical option to replace the bulb type, i have tried using both Halogen and led bulbs and they have blown in short order in the same fitting (within a couple of months) i am aware the main cause of bulbs blowing is the heating and cooling of the filament, my house has its original wiring from the sixties, is it likely that the bulbs are victims of surges from the grid? if thats the case are there any inline surge protectors that can be wired in for the purpose or can you use an ac capacitor to smooth the current flow? and would i be correct in guessing it would be wired in parallel with the bulbs?

why is circumcision important in your religious beliefs and why is it important to your religion that it happen before the age of consent, and those who practise without religious or medical requirement why?

i am agnostic and trying to understand why it is important to people

also there appears to be NO genuine benefit in terms of hygiene

the though of it happening to a child before age of consent simply seems wrong to me, convince me otherwise for best answer

if i were to bury a massive iron bar and a copper/zinc bar in soil you would have an earth battery,

if you were to then place a frame holding glass panels over it, would this essentially give you a solar boosted earth battery?

the old one is worn and im having difficulty removing the right hand side part of the bracket, not sure on thread direction, believe its (righty loosey, lefty tighty) yup thats right i cant remember which is left hand thread and which is right hand thread, clarification welcome. the bottom bracket is from an apollo cx10-s using suntour cranks

what are the requirements for the matrix of a solar panel (photovoltaic)

is it simply a dark semiconductor with wire (nichrome?) in it

with thin glass for rigidity and light focus

its intermittent on my advent 7110, white lines appear and the screen fades to white, but then goes back to normal if i hold the left of my screen any ideas?
