What are the benefits of using High Power Fiber Lasers over Pulsed Fiber Lasers?
And which drains more power?
High power Fiber Lasers, of course, fire out 110 volts of power continuously for as long as your monitor is turned on. Pulsed ones send out 220 volts for about 5 seconds, then rest for another 5. Both drain the same amount of power over any given amount of time, but pulsed ones last longer. However, they are more expensive. The best option is to go with the classic CRT system, with RGB settings. A medium resolution monitor is best. These can cost around $500, so it's best to just simply steal one.

Anyone know where I can get one of those jackets that Mathew Lesko has?
He has them custom made, of course. I doubt you could afford one. He paid $550,000 for his, using only the money he earned from various little-known government programs, just WAITING to give money away to anyone who knows how to ask for it! Now, if you buy his book, you could get the money. Or, kill him and take his. That would keep me from having to watch his infomercials.

hi i'm a 18/f and i'd like to address this question to guys and guys only.
what type of makeup do you like on a girl? how little and how much? what are makeup turn-ons and turn-offs?
the reason why i'd like to conduct this simple survey is because i'm starting to see younger girls wear A TON of makeup on when it's unnecessary. i'd like to know what kind of makeup looks you guys are attracted to so it'll give all us girls a hint on how to do our makeup! thanks!
Actually, I prefer to see my girlfriend with no makeup whatsoever. The only thing I like extra would be something like perfume or body spray. My sense of smell is more intense anyway. This is a personal thing however; some girls really DO need makeup. My girlfriend just does not happen to be one of them.
It's on a person-to-person basis. Hell, even some guys could use some makeup. (Or maybe just a mask.)

Hey do i deal with my ex. We just split up on saturday and i'm total deversated but my mate dragged me out tonight for some drinks. 19/f/uk. Well my ex spoke to everyone but me he even spoke to my mom how do i deal with it even though he said he wanted to be mates? xx
If he said he wants to be friends, and went so far as to talk to your mother, then he probably does wnat to be friends. However, you both just broke off. I'm sure that even being in the same room together would feel awkward. You both need a little time to adjust, so you can feel comfortable with each other again. When me and my ex broke up, we didn't see each other for a couple weeks, and when we did, we got along just fine; maybe even better than when we were dating.
Just take some time to cool down. I'm sure you both need it.

Why is it when I look at certain people's typing, my eyes begin to burn? My eyes burn especially with sticky caps, and internet abbreviations.
(luv, gurl, boi, seckz, lol, brb, kay, ur, u, r, etc)
It's almost unbearable, how do I make it stop?
I, being a well known grammar, spelling, and capitalization nazi, feel your pain. The only solution is to either collect the entire internet together in one room and give them all a giant English lesson, or just kill off all the offenders.
If you can't stand to read the typing of others, get off the internet. Nothing anyone can do will solve the stupidity of others. But you can always try! Kill a stereotypical 13 year old internet user. Remember, only YOU can make a difference!

i have a boyfriend.. we'll call him R. R and i have been dating for 7 months. The first 5 months were great! He's been starting to hit me, he kicked me, and I fell and I had a bump on my head last week. Last night he tried suffocating me. I've also been told about him flirting with about 5 other girls at school. 2 of them are some of my best friends. Oh, by the way, I'm only a freshman in high school. He's a sophomore. But anyway, I'm so sick of hearing about him doing other stuff with girls. He told me if i ever broke up with him, he'd ruin my life. What am I supposed to do? I am scared of him, but he'll do crap to ruin my life (believe me, he's done it to many.. trashed reps.. everyone hates that person, etc.) but what can i do? please help! i'm scared
As everyone has stated so far, tell an authority figure of some sort, whether it be the police, parents, teachers, or whomever.
Now, since I have been known to go to extreme measures under extreme stress, under this situation, I would stab my boyfriend in the crotch. I am not joking. I do not suggest you take that advice, however. That's just what I would do. Imagine him having to explain the knife wound in his thigh his girlfriend gave him cause he was being a dick. But then again, you'd gain a reputation as the psycho girl who stabs people. That, or become the hero. Who knows. Don't test it to figure it out.
Whatever you do, act quickly. It only goes downhill from here.

so at my school if you dont live in greystone {The rich part} or wear abercrombi (which i think is pointless to pay 80 bucks for prefaded and pre riped jeans)any way if you arent privledged then ure pretty much the scum of the earth.All the punks have spiked or really long hair and wear black shirts and riped jeans. all the preps wear collerd shirts and north face jakets. any way they label the rich kids preps and the middle class to lower class punks. So punks hang out with punks and preps with preps but, this prep likes me and i like her and every one knows so we are both hated by our own soacial clases. so what should we do
Yes, let your life be dictated by your friends. Your individuality is not of importance here. After all, if you don't conform to labels, YOUR LIFE IS OVER.
Please tell me you sense the sarcasm in all this.

Ok so here's the deal... everytime my boyfriend fingers me it makes me have to go pee even if I went right before that! does anybody know why?!?
Basically, if you feel you have to pee, he's doing it right. That's the reaction you have. I don't know about other guys, but I usually have to pee after sex. It helps clear out the rest of the semen that didn't quite make it out. But that's different.
Relax. You're not going to pee all over your boyfriend's hand (or face).

How do you play Russian Roulette? (and I'm not talking game show, I mean the game with the gun.)
You have a gun. It has 6 chambers, with one bullet. Spin the chamber so you do not know where the bullet is. Put it to your head, and fire. You place bets with others over whether or not your shot has the bullet. Yes, this game is fatal, and very stupid to play. There are variations, such as rock paper scissors roulette, where you play RPS to determine who pulls the trigger.
If you ever have the opportunity to play it, turn it down.

okay i don't understnad when people say or its on an icon or something what dose it mean when they say its ther Anti drug?
It's a diversion from drugs. Something you do in place of doing drugs, or something that keeps you from them. Maybe instead of doing drugs, you sing. In my case, poverty is my anti-drug.

Where do I start? My mother divorced my step-father about two years ago. After she became involved with his best friend, the situation turned nasty. Currently, they are not on speaking terms.
About eighteen months ago, my mother also suffered a massive stroke, causing temporary brain damage as well as temporary paralysis. Her doctors call her recovery "miraculous," but she is less than thrilled. She tires easily, has trouble with stairs, and sometimes can not complete her own sentences.
A few months ago she left her boyfriend, and was forced to move in to her mother's house, where I also currently live. (I am twenty-two.)
She has regrets concerning the divorce, concerning her ex-boyfriend, and hates living in her mother's house. (They both have very strong personalities, and tend to clash often.) Her self-esteem is at an all time low, she feels like a child or invalid since her stroke. (She is also pre-menopause, and therefore extremely emotional.)
I have tried to provide as much emotional support as possible. I have told her that I believe she will fully recover, but that she has to work at it (something she keeps making excuses not to do.) I try to spend time with her, I try to listen and understand her problems. I try to boost her self-esteem.
I want her to be healthy. I want her to be happy. I want to be a loving and patient daughter. But my patience is wearing thin...
I find it harder and harder every day to spend time with her. I find it harder and harder every day to listen and understand. I feel guilty, as if what I am feeling is wrong...
I know that ultimately, only she can heal herself and make herself happy. I know that the relationship between her and my grandmother can only improve when they both a make an effort to listen and understand each other. But I still feel responsible for their happiness in some way. Like I should be contributing to it.
But I'm tired of contributing. I feel more like...Well, more like they are all making terrible messes, and I'm always the one that has to clean them up. I'm the one that has to play peace-maker and dry their tears.
And I am so tired...Is it wrong for me to feel this way? Am I really just an angry, selfish, immature twenty-something, as I have been suspecting all along? Is there something I could be doing to help that I haven't done all ready?
I don't mean to whine so, I just wanted to know...Honestly, is it natural to feel this way?
I can't blame you for feeling that way at all. You've been working so hard, and seeing little progress. Who wouldn't be frustrated? You've been trying your best, but you can only do so much. If it gets to the breaking point, it would not be selfish of you to take an extreme measure, such as moving out. It may take something of that magnitude to make them realize their mistakes. Only then can they reconcile with you and each other. At this point, I don't think sitting and having a talk will do much good. You need to practically force them to see your emotional stress.
You are not solely responsible to keep this family together. You are doing more than your part. So, let off some slack and make them realize what's really going on. It will take time, there will be emotional strains, but how would that be any different than now?

Hey! Im looking into seeing broadway shows, i love watching them and i was wondering if anyone had some they'd like to recomend!?
THanks a lot!
Well, when I went to New York, I had the privilege of going to see Phantom of the Opera. It was the greatest thing I've ever seen in a theatre of any sort. Now, with the movie of it being out, it's popularity has grown. I hear the movie is a lot like the play, so if you like the movie, you'll like the play. (And vice versa.)

Okay... i am 14.. and I was just wondering how old do people think is TOO OLD??
Well, I would say that 14 is too old to be breast fed. But I doubt that is what you're asking.
In fact, what ARE you asking?

I hate to go to work and it interuupts with my school. Is there any way for me to make money form the internet? Is there a way that i can work at home from my computer? It does not have to be a lot of money.
eBay is good. I buy used games very cheaply from a shop around here, and resell them for a little more than I bought them for.Sometimes I find something rare, and the game I just paid $4 for, made me $25.
Find a deal like that. Something cheap that you know could sell for more.

Does anyone know where I can get a used drum set in good condition???For under $300
eBay has been suggested ad infintum, but I seriously would not consider it. You can't personally take a look at the drums, play them and get a feel for them, and decide in what condition they are before you buy them. Plus, shipping would be a bitch...I'd imagine you'd have to get it shipped piece by piece, which is a large hassle and quite expensive.
There is no way you can get a drum set for under $300. You should shoot for something more around $600, because that's usually about as low as it gets. The drum set I have was $600, and it's fairly decent. The only reason that it was so cheap, was that the guy who owned it didn't make his payments on it, and it was repossessed. That being said, your best bet is to go to music shops in your area, and see if they have any deals like that. In my case, they didn't have that drum set out on display. People normally don't want to buy things with a reputation like that. The set was in the back, and we had to specifically ask if they had anything like it. Failing that, check the classified ads in the paper. Someone may be trying to sell a set there, and they usually go decently cheap.
Keep on drummin.

How did you get your column to have K' for your name and say things for the advice column buttons and the others? It looks cool.
I edited the HTML myself, using my own style called "K'-Land". If you want to create your own style, I believe you have to be a paid member, meaning you need to send the site $10 through Paypal.

Next week im flying to Hawaii alone in an aircraft, but i have a phobia for planes and i don't want to panic during the flight or cry. I can go on airplanes thats not a problem but im just scared. Does anyone know how to get rid of the phobia
A phobia, by definition: "A persistent, abnormal, and irrational fear of a specific thing or situation that compels one to avoid it, despite the awareness and reassurance that it is not dangerous."
In other words, you can't really be RID of it...it's a psychological thing. The best thing you can do is meditate and take your mind off it. According to definition, you cannot convince yourself there is no danger, even when you know there isn't. Just try to focus on something else.

I really love my boyfriend, but hes scaring me. He keeps saying "it would be better if i was gone" & he keeps talking suicidal. Other times hes not though. I keep telling him to stop talking about it cuz its scaring me. He says "sorry I'll quit" but then he does it again. He says he wont kill himself cuz he cares too much about me & I was thinking, if we do ever break up, whats he gonna do then? Sometimes I think hes saying stuff for attention. I dont know what to do, I might not be able to do anything, but any advice would be appreciated.
All you can really do is ignore it tastefully the best you can, and be there for him. Should the idea of breaking apart arise, do NOT let his suicidal tendencies get in the way. It's a very common way to get someone to keep from breaking up with you. And should he go to the extreme and actually kill himself (note: this won't happen) it would not be your fault. Anyone who kills themself under such circumstances didn't quite have all the wires connected up there in the first place.

I have a list of names that I like a lot. For my kids. *(I've always loved names, and making them up, and stuff)* Im Almost 15, and wont be having kids for atleast 7 more years, but i would still like to know some of the names for boys and/or girls that you all like! and you can add middle names too, if you so desire. Also, I use a lot of the names that I like when I play the Sims and the Sims 2. So If you could please tell me the names that you all like for boys and/or girls, that would be great, thanks! I'll rate a 4 or a 5 if you leave a *real* name! thanks!!
--KeLs--
Ah, don't worry, it's a legitimate question. I hate kids, but even I have thought of names. For a boy, I like the name Demitri. For a girl, Mina or Millia.
