    So I go to login to my windows XP account this morning and the userdata file is corrupt. unfortunatly, i made the mistake of putting all my sensitive and important data on my desktop which is now corrupt and unretrievable. I had a project on there I've been working on for over a year. gone. I suppose thats what I get for not backing up.

Advancement (Promotions, etc.) If you guys have any information on the aforementioned areas, it would be of great help! Thanks.

    Do you know of any scientific fields, research and theory available on the area of predicting the future. Predicting The Future Forces and Factors Take a card, spin it into the air. The foce applied to the spin may cause it to spin 10 times before gravity causes the card to hit the ground and stop. As the card started face up as that is how I left the card on a table. The card will land face up. I apply more force just enough to spin it 11 times in the air before gravity will cause it to hit the ground the card lands face down. I try it again then a gust of win comes alond acting on the spinning card causeing a force of 11 spins I appieed to the card to only s…

    Ok, here what I want to: get as much gain as possible (at least 20dB) on a 1900MHz signal. How might I accomplish there? Could I use a type of satellite dish, and more important where could I get it. Where can I get giant antennas with gains like that? Size of the antenna or dish isn't important, but cost is, let's keep it around $150 This is for my cell phone... here in the US it's on GSM1900 band, and since the US is always behind national standards, the coverage sucks. Here in miami, the coverage is excellent, but I frequently travel 50-100 miles from the nearest cell phone tower, so I'm looking to boost the signal by as much as possible with the budget…

    Well I really f'ed things up this time with my gf. I bought a ring over the internet. It looked great, no problems, recieved just fine. However my gf wore it to bed and the next day she had a dark band underneath her ring. Like it stained her finger. She is so pissed and is accusing me of buying her a cheap ring. Not to mention I got a double wammy because I bought it over the internet and that screams "no effort". Anyway, the ring was advertised as Sterling Silver. I read that some staining might occur because of the small copper content. However she has a few other rings I have given her and they are all fine, but I'm not sure what they are made of. So these are my ques…

    now i know somebody has heard of this going on. i have been researching the september 11 attatcks and have viewed many web-sites that have talked about the number 11 mystery. many different numbers and symbols add up to the number 11 on that day. here are just a few of the add ups. read em and tell me what you think. ( by the way, i copied and pasted all of these from the web-site http://www.september11news.com) The first plane to hit the towers was American Airlines Flight 11. The Flight 11 call letters were AA11: A=1, A=1, AA=11. Four of the hijackers on flight AA11 have the initials A. A. for their names: AA=11. The fifth AA11 hijacker was the pilot, M…

    ICQ and AOL have had their DNS servers hacked - ICQ.com is down and the timer on AOL is about to hit zero. Cerulean have released a patch for Trillian but I recommend disconnecting from all ICQ, AOL or AIM services for the timebeing.

    Hi all: I am looking for information on RP/Usher Syndrome break throughs in the last year. I recall reading about them in the papers or somewhere. Of course at the time I was only remotely interested, now I am very interested and want to track those stories down. Anyone have any idea what I am talking about?
