The world record for boys Under 19 High Jump is 1.97m so i figure its gotta be a fair bit lower than that, but Im not sure

Interesting question that came up in conversation, 1812 overture springs to mind, as does Behtoven's Ninth.

So the question follows, "Which pieces of Classical Music are most recognisable to laypersons who do not listen to classical music"

Anyhow, I'm tossing up between a Asus N50vn ($2550 from rrp $2798) and a N50vc ($2100 from rrp $2350ish)

Both are Intel T9400 at 2.5ghz w/ 4gb ram, 500gb HD, BR disk, Vista Ultimate, and a few throw ins like a 2mp web cam, and a tv tuner etc (Also, warranty is extremely good - 2 years intl - useful since Ill be in Canada for 12 months)

Difference is the Video Card,

nVidia Geforce 9650M GT 1GB Dedicated VRAM

VS

nVidia Geforce 9300M GS 512mb Dedicated VRAM

Unfortunately, I don't have COD5 yet - so I dont know what the resource drain is like

Long story short - Is the Better GPU worth $450?

Here is a nifty idea

Im a forgetful person when it comes to numbers

Hence PIN's for the Credit Card are a real bother

Nevertheless, Im quite good at math

So my idea is, use a piece of mathematics as my PIN

I initially considered something along the lines of "The third merscanne prime" OR "the value of cos^-1(27)" but this is very difficult to derive on the spot

So I throw the idea out to the Answers community!

What is a mathematical process I could use to remember my pin number?

Ok, I understand the fundamental difference between a Road bike and a Tri Bike, but where on earth do ITT bikes fit into the picture?

Hey,

You know those MENSA style quizes which ask you to complete commonly known phrases

e.g. W B at 100 D C = Water Boils at 100 Degrees Celsius

Well anyhow, I'm doing a similar quick (n.b. not a MENSA quiz). There is about 60, and Im stuck on the Last few

Mathematical Facts

4 R A in a S

A S has 4 A of S

Songs/ Music Groups

L P N 9

1 F the M

General Knowledge

9 P in the SS

B has 8 H G

I understand that in the USA salaries for top appointments e.g. President, Chief Justice, Secretary of State, etc etc are indexed against one another in legislation. Is their a similar system in Australia?

For example, how much does the PM, or the Chairman of the RBA earn?

I know very little about guns/ pellets etc, so a discussion of muzzle velocity really wont help. In simple terms, how dangerous are these things?

Will they leave you with a bruise, a laceration, deep wound, death etc etc?

As in the Olympics

I'll set the alarm for it and get up just in time to see the top ten or so shoot it out for Tour de France Glory. Thanks SBS (the one time of year anybody watches it :))

P.S. Cadel Evans to come second in the stage, and to take the yellow jersy over Castre by about 30 seconds.

Thanks in advance

I understand it is sort of like BitTorrent and Limewire, but it costs money. What is it?

me and a mate have two nintendo Wii Consoles, and we want to connect them so we can have lots of players playing at the same time, we can use however many TVs are necesary (either all playing on one screen, or using multiple screens) of course we have loads of Wiimotes and two copies of all the games we will be playing.

Any advice warmly appreciated

Any other info about OPSO's warmly appreciated
