  • CM Punk vs Undertaker @ wrestlemania 28?

    I heard a rumor that its going to be CM Punk vs The Undertaker at Wrestlemania 28 in a lumberjack match, so all the current stars and even some hall of famers can be apart of Taker's last match. Think there's any truth to it, or just a rumor?

  • Which is better, Straight talk or Boost Moblie?

    The space bar on my cell phone is breaking and doesn't want to work half the time, so I'm looking to buy a new one but I've been thinking about making the switch to Boost Mobile.

    Currently I use Straight Talk, the unlimited plan for $45 a month. The talk is perfect its really clear and I almost never have a dropped call. Texting is limited to 5 people at a time and only 150 characters. Also if while sending a message you get more than two other messages before it finishes it will most likely fail. The internet on the phone is a joke. Straight Talk disables java and unless you're on one of their only 2 smart phones you don't get 3G and their internet is no faster than old dial up. Most websites wouldn't load and if they do with out java normally are unusable. $45 a month though is still a lot cheaper than almost anything else I've seen with unlimited talk/text/web. Also you can't save your voice mail.

    Then there is Boost Mobile. Boost has a lot more phones to choose from than Straight Talk. Their shrinkage plan is good, it starts at $50 a month so for a while I'll be spending more money, but it can get as low as $35 a month, which even with Straight Talk will save $120 a year. One of my friends uses it, and their web lets her use messenger and youtube so I'm sure they have java and faster internet speeds. So looking at that I'm leaning to switching yo Boost Mobile.

    However, when I compare their coverage maps, Straight Talk blows Boost Mobile away. While its true I don't travel much, when I do I want to know I can use my phone, if I break down or have an accident I want to know I can just pick up my cell and call for help. So it looks like it comes down to cost or coverage.

    What should I do? Stick with Straight Talk or switch to Boost with shrinkage?

  • What would it be like, if the moon wasn't tidal locked?

    Would life on Earth be any different? With the size of the moon, would the moon itself be any different, maybe even with an atmosphere?

  • Any idea what is wrong with my linksys router?

    I have a cisco linksys router, wrt310n version 2 I bought it on ebay about 3 months ago and its been working perfectly. I woke up this morning and it was down. Unplugged it and my modem for about a minute then plugged them both back in. The router's internet button is lite up so its saying its connected to the internet. Computer to computer the network is running as normal. When I plug the modem straight to my computer or laptop the internet works fine. So I am pretty sure its the router. I tried to use syslink's support, but because its out of warranty they refuse to help unless I pay some fee. I even went in and reset the router to start from scratch and it did not work. When I windows network diagnostic it tells me "the DNS server isn't responding" but again the net is working fine when by-passing the router. I'm out of ideas and really can't afford to buy a new one. Any ideas?

  • Why was Gambit and Rogue left out of Marvel vs Capcom 3?

    I just went out and bought the game, Gambit was in 1 and 2, so I didn't even bother to check to see if he was in this one. After getting the game home and playing it I find out he's not in it and neither is Rogue. The game's open so I can't take it back... I'm just wondering if anyone knows why they were left out of it.

  • DDO is it worth it to become a VIP?

    I've been playing DDO for a while now. Well okay a week. The game seems like its a lot of fun, is it worth it to become a VIP? For the same money I could buy a video game, then trade it back into gamestop when I'm bored with it, on DDO when i'm bored there's not even a little return. So it is worth it?

  • Anyone know why my ps3 isn't working with ps2 games?

    I have a ps3, its one of the older ones that is suppose to be backwards compatible, and it reads the ps2 game alright, loads and everything. However, when its time to play the game, it tells me there is no controller. I don't own any ps3 games yet and I only bought this old (used) because it was suppose to be able to play them. Anyone know what I need to do to make it work?

  • Is Earth a planet? Mmmm?

    Lets start with how a planet is defined.

    (1) A “planet” is a celestial body that:

    (a) is in orbit around the Sun,

    (b) has sufficient mass for its self-gravity to overcome rigid body forces so that it assumes a hydrostatic equilibrium (nearly round) shape, and

    (c) has cleared the neighborhood around its orbit.

    Where a different class of planet is...

    (2) A “dwarf planet” is a celestial body that:

    (a) is in orbit around the Sun,

    (b) has sufficient mass for its self-gravity to overcome rigid body forces so that it assumes a hydrostatic equilibrium (nearly round) shape,

    (c) has not cleared the neighborhood around its orbit, and

    (d) is not a satellite.

    Lets go over that check list....

    (1) A “planet” is a celestial body that:

    (a) is in orbit around the Sun: Yup Earth orbits the sun

    (b) has sufficient mass for its self-gravity to overcome rigid body forces so that it assumes a hydrostatic equilibrium (nearly round) shape: Mmm we still don't think the Earth is flat right? so check.

    (c) has cleared the neighborhood around its orbit: Mmmm... not really no... can't clearly check that one off...

    I say you can't check off on (C) because:

    Near-Earth Objects (NEOs) are comets and asteroids that have been nudged by the gravitational attraction of nearby planets into orbits that allow them to enter the Earth's neighborhood. Composed mostly of water ice with embedded dust particles, comets originally formed in the cold outer planetary system while most of the rocky asteroids formed in the warmer inner solar system between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter.

    As of January 16, 2011, 7701 Near-Earth objects have been discovered. Some 821 of these NEOs are asteroids with a diameter of approximately 1 kilometer or larger. Also, 1184 of these NEOs have been classified as Potentially Hazardous Asteroids (PHAs).

    That seems like a lot. We used to think the sun orbited the Earth, or that the Earth was flat, and we now know all that is wrong. I'm sure that we'll find that (C) is just as wrong as those as we learn more about the space around us.

    So, is Earth a planet or a dwarf planet? I'll love to hear what you think.

  • Anyone know anything about Mediamax harddrives?

    I bought a mediamax harddrive off of ebay, it was suppose to be brand new with a 1 year warranty. The prince was right for the 1tb drive so although I never heard of the brand I bought it. I can't seem to find a website for mediamax and since its been over 90 days it no longer shows on ebay under my sales to contact the person I bought it from. I know it hasn't been a year yet and the thing stopped working. Does anyone know anything about them?

    mediamax wl1000gsa6472

    s/n wol240137745

    Is all I have on the harddrive... I really can't afford to buy another one and with the warranty I didn't plan to have to.

  • Was Mercury once Venus' moon?

    I was watching a program and it talked about stuff I never heard of before. Then I went on line, and I couldn't find anything about it.On the video, it talked about how Mercury used to be Venus' moon. It also said that Mars and Body C used to the moons of Planet V. Planet V went boom, then Mars and Body C orbited each other for a while, then Body C (which was smaller than Mars) went boom. I've been able to find some stuff on line about Planet V, but nothing about the Mercury being Venus' moon.

    Can anyone help me find some info on that, also, what do you think about it?
