Mido

I really urgently need some kind of reasonable instrumental music accompaniment for Jack's Lament - for a concert at school.

One that's not embarassingly echoing from the original recording's vocal track, but one that's not a very lame .midi-file too.

Can you help?

I changed my resolution settings, and restarted the pc as it prompted me to do, but after it boots the monitor goes black and the only thing it does is flash a little window, saying "Frequency out of range, change it to 60Hz" or something like that.

Is there a way to change the resolution back somehow? It worked fine before, but now I can't do a thing with it.. please help!

Oh, I have Windows xp! I don't know what other info you may need... ^^

How can you remove a certain color from a picture? Make it invisible?

Like you have a lineart that consists of red and blue lines, how can you preserve only the blue ones for eg?

I usually use my worn-out street shoes to riding, but I just began to wonder - because of something I heard at the stables.

The zippers on my boots are on the inner side, so they touch the horse.

Does it do any bad to the him when it rubs against his side?

There has to be reason why there's no zipper on the riding boots anyways.

Looks like I will have to become a frequent air traveller, but my ears happen to be a little too sensitive.

During landing my ears are not just simply clogged, but they also hurt quite bad. :( And sometimes they remain clogged like this for days after... (yeah, mostly when I have a flu, or when I'm allergic)

I would like to ask you: do you know anything, that may prevent this aerplane ear thing?

I mean I know that a producer has to make the financial basis of a movie, and advertise it. But what does it exactly mean? And how do they start? Do they start a movie to begin with, or is it the director?

I'm just curious:)

I really don't know how this goes, I applied to a course abroad, in Ireland.

I accepted their offer of a place, but now I have second thoughts, and I want to make sure that I will be able to change my mind later or not.

Please help! Anything would be helpful to me. Really.

I've got this problem:

Apperantly www.veoh.com stopped to be available in my country a few days ago.

Could you help find me a plugin something for Mozilla that changes or hides my IP adress?.. and anyways would this solve this problem?

I'd like to listen to something new that's strange and beautiful.

Let me tell you what kind of music I like:

I like Joanna Newsom's Ys, Turin Brakes, Blackmore's Night, Danny Elfman/Oingo Boingo, and oldies like Elvis and the Vogues.

Folk-ish music, melancholic music, freaky music.. anything's good, that's similar:)

And I also like film music (James Newton Howard, Elfman again or Jo Young-wook, Hans Zimmer) (Donnie Darko, too)

...

Can you recommend me something I'd like?

I have NOD32 v3.6 on my pc,but it doesn't have the built in firewall like ESET Smart Security has, and I'm worried about that, but I just won't be able to buy ESS.

What do you think, if I only have Windows Vista's firewall and NOD, is it enough to protect me?

Or what do you think, what firewall should I get, that will go with my NOD, and won't be a big wheight for the system, too?

Do you know anything to make an itchy shirt NOT to irritate your skin?

I mean maybe some home remedies, like washing it in... orange juice or.. anything. ^^

Seriousle :)

What syllables are used in Ireland for sight-reading?

I'm Hungarian, and I applied to a school in Dublin. At home, we have the moveable Do system, and use the solmization syllables Do Re Mi Fa etc...

Do they use different syllables out there? Like, maybe C D E F G etc..? And how do they pronounce semitones like #D bF while singing?

Your answer would be a great help for me! :)

I'm from Hungary, so we're part of the EU, we're also inside the Schengen border (I know Ireland isn't).

So theoretically I should be able to go there without a passport, but what's the practice?

I'm flying with RyanAir if that matters.

Thanks in advance for your help!^^

I have this drawing and (as usual) I can't make up my mind on which color version to choose...

Please help! (It is supposed to be a window there, and I like brownish colors, but I'm afraid it's not quite clear that it's supposed to be a window there if it's brown)

#4 http://i135.photobucket.com/albums/q133/i_am_Lydia...

ps. yes, I suffer from serious undecisiveness, and I know these are small differences ^^

(pps. is willing to choose best answer)

I need to find a good PC Support site, or something alike, a free forum, where I could ask for a little help, can you help me? (for free)

I'm planning a flight this April with Ryanair.

Do you know anything about what they allow as cabin baggage?

It says on their site that they allow one baggage with the maximum size of 55x40x20cm, max 10 kg.

How strict are they with these numbers? does a few cm + count?

And more importatntly: what do you think could I bring up both my laptop case (as handbag of some sort:)) AND the 55x40x20cm baggage?

What does this phrase mean: "to get the best of someone"

For eg. like in the Foo Fighters song: "Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?"

Or a completely different example, from the Snow White animated feature: "I chased a polecat up a tree

Way out on upon a limb

And when he got the best of me

I got the worst of him "

Yep, I'm not a native speaker^^

Could you help me with how to pronounce this in Irish? Or maybe do you know of a website with a feature that would do so? Or maybe a recording?

It would be of great help to me!

Is thíos i nGort na Saileán

sea casadh dom mo rún

Ba luath a cos ar féar ann

is ba luaineach a leagan siúil

Sé dúirt sí liom bheith suaimhneach

mar a fhásann duilliúr is bláth

Ach bhí mise óg is uaibhreach

is níor éist mé le guth mo ghrá.

Is thíos cois abhann go déanamh

sea sheas mé le mo ghrá

Gualainn ar ghualainn le chéile

is leag sí orm lámh

Sé dúirt sí liom bheith suaimhneach

mar a fhásann féar aníos

Ach bhí mise óg is uaibhreach

---And it would be also important to me to know how long does the written exams follow the auditions?---

I'm writing a formal letter and I'm not native English.

How could I ask this correctly?

It have to use the word follow in the question...

umm, I hope you get what I'd like to ask, anyways ^^

I have a very faint and old memory of some children's cartoon I saw, well, I think I did... I don't recall too much, but I'm so curious, what can it be?

I only remember a few characters, I think two sharks, one of them was little dumb, I think, and the other wore a red headscarf... probably he had a hook on one fin... They were the bad guys.

Annd, maybe there were 3 mice/or rats in it, too... uhh, yeah...

I know that's very little info. I don't even know if I just made it all up when I was little lol.

But still, can you help, pleease?:)
