My friend (I was in the car) was written a ticket for missing a stop sign, but she didn't see it because she hadn't driven down that road before and the street light was out so it was very dark. She's a very careful driver; it was just an unlucky situation. She'd like to bring up her situation...

Thanks for your advice SociallyChallenged! 1. So you're saying that, potentially, I'm actually using my left triceps much more, and that's why they're tiring out? 2. If it is a motor activation issue, what types of exercises should I work on? Exercises similar to what I normally do (oh...

Lately I've been noticing that my left tricep is not only bigger, but also weaker (!) than my right tricep. I know my left tricep is bigger because I can measure it (and see it) and I confident it's weaker because my left tricep consistently feels much more activated and tired (like it's trying...

I use disposable water bottles (the 16.9 oz ones), they're super easy to shake up and easy to wash out too. I've done this forever.. I didn't know there were actual things like shaker bottles at first. And I couldn't imagine how to properly mix up protein in a normal cup, so water bottles...

I've been having troubles with my knees and went to see a physical therapist. We talked about correct form for squats, and how to keep the knee healthy. He gave me what seemed like a lot of sound advice. When I asked about how deep to go on squats, he said to go no lower than parallel, and to...

I've been on Starting Strength for a while and I'm looking to switch things up because I'm really getting bored. I've been strength training for a while and think it'd be fun to try a bodybuilding routine. Are there any good routines or "Starting Strength"s for bodybuilding? EDIT: I'm open...

Are there any good websites that you guys use as journals to jot your numbers down and track your progress over time? Right now I just write all my numbers in a spreadsheet.

I've done interviews with them before. They're pretty standard cs interviews, algorithm and language-based questions. So stuff like finding the max subarray or certain aspects of Java, C++, etc. Microsoft programs in C#.

I currently have my laptop's stereo output hooked up to my amp. However, I want to route the stereo signal from my laptop's headphone jack to my monitor's speaker input, then connect the monitor's headphone jack to my amplifier. I want do this because I also have my xbox hooked up to my...

It's a Seagate. It's a Dell Latitude d620. I understand what you're saying about the power, and some research on google showed that some hard drives whine they don't receive enough power. My question is whether this noise is any indication that my hard drive may fail prematurely (and that I...

When my laptop isn't plugged into the wall (so it's running off battery), the HDD whines constantly. It's a high-pitched, somewhat soft whine, but it doesn't sound good, and it most certainly only happens when the laptop isn't plugged in. Any ideas what could be wrong?

DVI's not an option because my laptop is super old =( I'll probably start with a better cable.

I'm running 1920x1200 @ 60hz on a 28 inch monitor with a VGA cable that's about 6 ft long. I can't change my refresh rate, and I see flickering even at the lowest resolutions. The flickering is very faint, but definitely there (horizontal lines). I appreciate any suggestions you can give...

On another note, I'm wondering if I should buy a higher quality vga cable. Both the laptop and the monitor should be at the same ground so I don't know what to do.. I could also buy a 2-prong power cord/adapter from my laptop manufacturer. Which is the better choice?

The flickering is continuous though, not just immediately after plugging in.
