where did magazine paper come from?
example: meat came from cows which came from a cattle graze
where did staples come from?
answer either of these and ill give you feedback :]]
Paper(all kinds) comes from pulp, which comes from trees. Magazine paper is treated with extra chemicals to give it that special feel.
Staples are made of steel, which is a mixture of carbon and iron, both of which are mined from the earth.
(If that wasn't what you wanted, send me a private question. I can't respond to feedback.)

hey,
how do you make a video (not really a slideshow..) of pictures?
cause people have them on utube all the time and i want to know how.
all i have is picasa if that helps.
oh, also, if anyone has picasa, how do you edit the pictures so that the color is like dull and faded?
thanks.
Use windows movie maker, in start>all programs>windows movie maker.
You can use "sepia" in the "effects" tab in picasa. For other effects you can use the GIMP( http://gimp.org ).

i have a linux computer and whenever i try to sign onto gaim, it says this:
COULD NOT LAUNCH MENU ITEM
Details: Failed to execute child process "gaim" (no such file or directory)
i dont get it. it was working just the other day. and i signed off and shut down my computer, and now it works.
i have verizon DSL if that matters.
what should i do to fix this?
Try reinstalling gaim(the process of doing this depends on your distribution, see its documentation). Instead of using a shortcut to access gaim, use the executable. If that doesn't work, you're probably out of luck, and you'll have to use a replacement program.

There is someone in my house. The phoneline is dead and I am typing very carefully so he doensnt hear me. I don't know what to do my heart is beating out of my chest. I'm on the third floor, i don't recognize the car outside and there's a huge racket downstairs. HELP
Grab a blunt object to defend yourself with, and then hide in a closet or under a bed. Don't lock the door, or the person will know you're there. Avoid a confrontation. Take a phone if you have time. You may wish to call the emergency or non-emergency police number now.

I'm getting my first blood test tomorrow.
I hate needles..
Does it hurt?
What do they do?
I heard very bad stories..
They need 2 samples from me.
Is there anyway to distract myself?
I really dislike needles/shots.. and veins. So poking me with something sharp near my veins.. makes me lightheaded.. [thinking about it]
.. I'm kinda scared.
They put this big rubber band thing around your arm, and it cuts off your circulation really bad. Then they stick the needle in at the area opposite your elbow. They usually only put the needle in once, even for two samples, because there is a separate part of the syringe they change. In my experience, it didn't hurt at all, though it was really uncomfortable. You should make sure you look away from the syringe. It'll probably take less than 5 minutes, so you don't need to distract yourself; if you want you can do math in your head.

I was wondering how you make the little trade mark sign on the computer. Like this but smaller: tm
Hold down the ALT key. On the NUMBER PAD(on the right), type 0153. Release ALT. The TM will be wherever your cursor was.

okay so don't you know when you turn on your computer and sign in to your account certain programs automatically start up. well my kodak easyshare program automatically opens in the icon tray and i know you can control what programs start up when you sign on because i have done it before. does any body know how to control this?
i know i read it in the "bottom line" newspaper a while ago i just lost the article and forgot how.
thanks sooo much!
ps. i tried going in to kodak preferences and there weren't really any options like that.
Go to start, then run. Type:
msconfig
And press "ok". Go to the startup tab, and uncheck programs you don't want to start. Carefully look at each entry; it's sometimes hard to determine which is the right program. Press ok. You can restart now or later, it doesn't matter. Be careful not to change any other msconfig settings, these can permanently ruin your system.

i need to color something gold.
i have a standard 12 crayola colored pencil pack.
can someone tell me how i would make gold... ?
specific directions.. like "put yellow on first, then smudge a little brown on top" or something.
pleasee & thankss.
**edit 2:Alright, I think I figured it out. You mix Cyan and Magenta. Cyan is blue/green and Magenta is pink**
**edit:shoot, I meant Green and RED. I'm still not sure if that'll work, though...**
Green and yellow should make gold. If that doesn't work, try purple and blue.
Subtractive color is confusing, so I could be wrong.

Well i didn't really brush my teeth when i was younger and now my teeth are hurting very bad.. I didn't lose any teeth. Is it possible to lose all my teeth at this age? I am going to start brushin my teeth 4 times a day now for 2 minutes? will i still lose my teeth at a young age??
It's possible, but I doubt you'll loose them *all*(if any). Go to a dentist. They'll be able to tell you their condition, stop the pain, and fix them.

About three days ago I started chugging cough medicine and taking way more than i should to get high off of it. i cant stop. i think im addicted to it already because ive been takin about one bottle every 24 hrs because i love the feeling i get off of it and now i dont know what to do because im getting hooked on it. please...i really need some advice because even tho its only been 3 days i cant stop and i kno it will probably turn into an addiction because even this morning i took a half of bottle and i just got to school and im just waiting for it to start to kick in. i really dont want this to be a regular thing. any one have any advice for me???
Cough syrup contains Dextromethorphan(which makes you high) and acetaminophen(a pain killer). In high doses they react in your liver, completely ruining it. You'll then have 2 weeks of extreme, agonizing pain, before you die. So get rid of it like the people below me say, or at least extract the DXM from the syrup so it's not as dangerous.

I know everyone has crazy thoughts... but mine are a bit strange. Like "overly crazy" and need the appropriate attention and medication
So here's the deal:
Ever since I was a little girl (I'm 13/f now), I would come up with these weird thoughts that if I did something that looked cool and I wanted to do it again, it wouldn't look cool if I did it again. I don't think that way anymore. But now I think even worse thoughts. As years grew by this thinking has become worse.
Sometimes when I'm up high on like a deck over a hotel looking at the view, I feel like I'm going to lose control and jump off. But then it got even worse. And this is what really scares me. I sleepwalk, so I feel like I'm going to harm someone in my sleep... and it really disturbs me. My brother annoys me a lot and sometimes the rest of my family does to, (because I'm on the computer all day could be why I'm so annoyed because it puts you in a bad mood. But I never used to be I don't think.) and I feel like once I'm older that I'm going to be one of those people with a mental illness that's going to kill somebody because of it.
Also, I think I have O.C.D. (Obsessive Compulsize Disorder) because when I'm on the neopets boards I'll keep looking up to make sure I'm on the right topic, or it's the right username etc. etc. I'm not sure if I'm just anxious or what!
I may also have A.D.D.
So those things may be connected.
I am also going through a minor depression that is becoming more mild, less and less ever since I talked about it with my mom... which is good but may have something to do with it.
Does any of what I've described seem like a disease/illness? Could you send me a link or something or explain what type of mental problem this could be? I'm scared to know the truth... but the later I find out, the worse.
THANK YOU for your time, and thank you for reading this because it was so long.
It doesn't sound like you have mental problems. Everyone gets depressed, don't worry about it. It's not unusual to have the urge to jump off a building. What would be unusual is if you started acting on this urge. You probably don't have OCD, and it's good to verify you're posting on the correct board.
Avoid medicine and psychiatrists if you can. Medicines are bad for you. Psychiatrists may convince you you have illnesses you don't, whether my accident or to make more money.

Is it true that vineger softens your bones if you wrap a bandage soaked in vinegar around your arm for a few hours?
No. Anything that's able to "soften your bones" would melt your arm off.

I got a laptop about four months ago and it's always worked fine. However, recently it's been switching itself off for no apparent reason. Without any warning it will just completely shut off, without going through any shutting down processes or anything like that. It's only happened a few times but I don't want it to get any worse.
Does anyone know what the problem is? Or how I could fix it?
When you start the computer, hold down F8(hold it down as soon as the text scrolls down the screen at startup, before the windows loading screen). At the menu, use the arrow keys to select "disable automatic restart on system error"(or something like that). Press enter. Now, next time this happens, your computer will give you a Blue Screen Of Death, with information about your problem instead of shutting you down. You can use this information to help diagnose the problem.

Does anyone know of a number that I can call to ask a question? Or does anybody know if I can have it so that I can't get calls from users who block their numbers? I usually don't mine prank calls but someone recently took it a little to far and I need to get it to stop right now because they've called me the past two nights and I'm fed up with it. Any solutions? I think I know who it is but I called them and they acted like they were asleep so I don't know if it was really them or not.
**edit: I've discovered that you can enable Anonymous Call rejection by dialing *77 **

They are able to stop people from calling you anonymously, but they might not want to, so keep pressuring them until they do. Good luck!

The name was first used in Ancient Greece, taken from the Bay Laurel plant. The wreath influential Greek and Roman people wore on their heads were laurel wreaths. You can see the story of the creation of Laurel here:

The name Lauren is associated with that story and the gods involved.
