    A few questions about staritng an Ecommerce site.

    It's been a while since I've frequented this forum, but you guys have always been pretty helpful in the past. Forgive me if this is the wrong forum, but there didn't seem to be a clear winner. Basically I've recently been involved with a new candle company, and to my surprise it's beginning...

    Anyone recommend a good multi-vitamin?

    I've been sick with mono for three weeks and I'm just now recovering. I can't do any drinking or other immuno-depressing activities for at least 8 weeks, so there goes Christmas, New Years, and my birthday. Anyways, in attempts to circumvent this problem and for general health purposes, I...

    If you have a CRT, you'll probably be gaming in 480p on the PS3

    In a nut shell, the PS3 doesn't include a scaler like the Xbox360, so all of those CRT owners out there who can only game in 480p/1080i, you'll be stuck playing all the 720p games (and most of them are) in 480p. Yes, I know some CRTs display other resolutions but the majority do not. How...

    Extremely Tough Brain Teaser

    You have to pass through each "gate" only once. The gates are just each interrior and exterrior line of the box. You can criss cross your lines, but you can't double over a gate. Apparently it took over 200 years for it to be solved. Check it out. Blank Template Example Edit: The bottom...

    Favorite websites suddenly not working?

    Lately my computer's internet connection seems to be a bit chuggy. But its very hit and miss. Some of my most frequented websites don't work anymore. For example, anything from Teamxbox fails to load. However I know it still works because I've tried computers outside of the house. I thought I...

    Ugh, I just had a terrible thought about DVD box sets.

    Soon there will be HD-DVD and BlueRay "special edition" releases. :disgust: Edit: To be honest, I started this thought by thinking about how cool a Star Wars HD-DVD set would be.. and as much as I'm tired of rereleasing new special editions every year, an HD-DVD version would be pretty sweet.

    How unhealthy are unfiltered cigarettes?

    I'm not a big smoker, I don't particularly enjoy them. But lately I've enjoyed smoking a Lucky Strike every other day or so. I don't plan on doing it long term or anything, but it's just an interesting thing to try for a while. Now the thing is when I went to buy a pack, most places were out...

    I need help finding something to play this extension.

    They are supposed to be movie files I received on a disc in order to do some work on. But I can't for the life of me find anything that will play these. I have a small feeling I might have to resort to RealPlayer, but google didn't say much about it. Any help?

    Disc stuck in Xbox360 after the 3 lights of death.

    I've never had any problems with my Xbox but while watching a movie today it suddenly just went POOF and shut off. And now I can't get anything but the red lights of death. But the problem is, the disc inside is from blockbuster and I need to get it out. The tray won't open no matter what I...

    In an RPG sense, what would happen to your stats

    Yes, here comes the weirdest topic of the day. I've been playing a lot of Oblivion and I had this dream last night where everything I was doing was affecting my "stats". Sex of course had this same consequence. I just thought it was slightly humorous, if very weird, so I figured this was the...

    "Gravity Defying" sports?

    Wouldn't all the sports be gravity abiding rather than gravity defying? They need gravity to bring them down again, and they need gravity to gain the moment to get off the ground in the first place. How exactly are they defying gravity again?

    The Unfortunates

    The most racist thing I've ever seen in my life..

    Question about Comcast HDTV Tuners

    I'm purchasing a new HDTV and it is only HD-ready. Tuners seem to be starting at around $200, but from what I can tell you can pick up a comcast reciever for $5 a month with a $15 starting fee. We already have comcast, just need an HDTV reciever. Does anyone have first hand experience with this?

    I got robbed this morning.. well, sort of.

    This morning I was heading out to school and I noticed that the garage door was open. Kind of weird because my parents are usually picky about keeping it closed at night, but I didn't think much of it. Then I walked to my car and saw that the door wasn't closed all the way. I opened it and...

    HDTV Size/Price/Quality confusions.

    I'm looking at getting a nice, medium sized HDTV right before the Xbox 360 launches. I've been shopping around Best Buy lately, and I just don't get it. There was a whole row of TVs that were about 20-25inches, kinda thick, and all HDTV (a lot of LCDs) that were all priced around...

    Are there any pills to GAIN weight?

    I've always been pretty skinny. Unfortunately I have a stomach disorder that really bothers me when I eat huge meals or take tons of Weight Gaining powder. So eating a whole lot more than 3,000 calories a day isn't very helpful. Are there actually any pills or some other method you can take to...
