  • avalanche radio network music?

    Listening to the avs broadcast, during transitions in the background of their station ID they are playing a highly recognizable orchestral piece. Very uplifting, sounds like the "triumph" score from a sports movie.

    Anyone know what it's from? Been bugging me all night.

  • Who is Bill Simmons talking about?

    On page 143 in his book, talking about players who used cocaine in the early 80's, Simmons writes:

    "...John Lucas, Barnes, Bernard King, Eddie Johnson-and we'll always wonder about some of the others (including one of the era's biggest stars; someone who became infamous in NBA circles for his surreal ability to thrive even after using cocaine)."

    Who is he referring to?

  • Another fun math problem!?

    The new teacher thought she’d get the children to drink the milk at recess more cheerfully by offering cookies with it. A lot of the children had illnesses and were out, causing various numbers of children to be present each day.

    One day the teacher noted that if there were five fewer children the next day, they would each get two cookies more if she brought the same number she had that day. However, the absentee list was low the next day, and she had four more children instead of five fewer. This meant that each received one cookie less than each child had received the day before.

    How many cookies did the children get the second day? __________________________

  • Upgrading a 2008 Giant Trance X2?

    I recently bought a 2008 Giant Trance X2 on special. While I'm not going to do anything immediately, what's the first thing you would upgrade? My first thought was shifters or wheels. Spec sheet: http://www.giant-bicycles.com/en-us/bikes/mountain...

  • Best full suspension bike under $2k?

    I was looking mostly at the Giant Trance X3 and X4 or possibly the Trek Fuel EX 5.5 or 6.5. Is the extra money worth it for either of the two more expensive bikes? Between brands, any preferences? Any other recommendations?

  • Name of a children's book about a single stand of white Christmas lights?

    I remember reading it as a child. In it, in an effort to outdo his neighbors, the father, who usually puts up 1 strand of white lights, keeps putting up Christmas decorations, until he eventually causes a blackout. Angry neighbors ransack his yard, destroying all of his decorations. While they feel guilty and offer to rebuild everything, he decides to only put up one string of lights. Anyone know the title and author of this book?

  • How do I stop apple boot camp from defaulting to windows on startup?

    I briefly used boot camp, but I decided to switch to parallels. Unfortunately, despite my deleting on the partition, when I start my computer it still tries to boot into windows, which since I deleted the partition leads to it saying: "please insert boot disk." I tried inserting my copy of windows and it didn't work. I even tried starting the computer wit the disk in and running the installer, but that didn't work either. How do I get it so that my computer boots automatically into OS X?
