Air RuneCrafting
why be ignorant to a useful method which is faster than both... It's not. Besides, the OP asked for the fastest of two methods.

Good item to alch?
Exactly, and if there were, people wouldn't tell others. I alched green dragonhide bodies to get 99. There wasn't to much loss.

iPod Touch - WiFi Question
An iPod is compatible with b/g. Ensure that your network uses this type.

comp for rs? prebuilt.
Meh, then it's $10 more for a better processor. Circuit City or Best Buy usually sell the computers for a higher price, as they have to make a profit off the computers. There are some exceptions, such as Circuit City because it filed for bankruptcy.

I'm going to go against what you said there. Dell has the same computer with a better processor for $10 less. Dell Dell will be cheaper as long as they have a lower share than HP. Besides, he lives next to a Dell shop, it's quite convenient. The link will bring to you the Insiron 530B, when you customize it, select: Intel® Core2 Duo processor E7300 (3MB L2, 2.66GHz, 1066 FSB) [add $140] $439 If you're willing to spend a little bit more: 4GB Dual Channel DDR2 SDRAM at 800MHz- 4DIMMs [add $75] ATI Radeon HD 3450 256MB supporting HDMI [add $60] $574

ipod touch alternatives
Nothing matches the iPod Touch. The only thing that comes in a distant second is the Archos. It's much more than listening to music. The App Store has turned iPods into a game boy, a PDA, a television, and much more. Unless you absolutely need HD space, the Touch is probably the best one there.

Which brand should i trust the most for a quality desktop
Dell will always be lower priced so long as it remains under HP (in share; Dell is 10.87, while HP is 34.32). Dell HP Spec for spec, and the Dell has a larger HD and a monitor. Though I agree about the CS.

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
Not the best idea for someone scared of rejection. Being friends with someone you're asking out is like a gamble. You increase your chances of a long term relationship, because he/she knows you. But you also increase the "awkwardness" of the situation afterwards. Do you currently like someone, or are you just generally stating the fact? EDIT: Woops, sorry for the second post, I though I hit edit rather than quote. :oops:

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
The next time you meet at a game, exchange numbers! It's a great way to see how she's changed and to find out if she's dating. After that, you discuss how much things of changed, school life, and other new things in general. It's also a way to find out who, if anyone, she's seeing without directly asking.

Moral Dilemma
Exactly, and you could feel the vibrations. I'd probably do the same as Godess. I don't think I could live with myself if I killed my child.

{{A Very Difficult Question}}
Okay, wow. As soon as I saw "a question our pastor from our church asked", I became very biased. BUT, I'm going to do my best to put that aside. You're assuming they will use the baby for the rest of their lives. The parents would care for the baby just as well as they cared for Jeff as he grew up. Three embryos destroyed: If the parents never decided to have a child again after Jeff in the first place, what's the big deal? If they did, can't they start a new? The baby isn't going to make any choices, and your view is going to let someone who has already developed and started growing die? WHAT THE [bleep]? Jeff should die instead of living with the disease? Didn't you just say the baby's blood would cure the disease? EPIC FAIL. Essentially, it doesn't matter if it is bias or not. The choice at hand is one based on morals and environmental factors.

Runescape Banner with the "Sailing Cape"
If you look at it that way, every skill could be an waste. What is the point of slaying? Killing monsters otherwise killable without the skill? Farming, plant a bunch of trees? I don't think many of us thought of the possibility of growing herbs to make a profit. There's nothing in Runescape at the moment that make sailing a god send, but that certainly doesn't mean things can't be added.

Oh sorry, in that part of my post I wasn't directly referring to you. :oops:

Runescape Banner with the "Sailing Cape"
I think sailing is coming. This image is too convincing. I fail to see how thats convincing. Its most definatly something to do with the dragon slayer quest, and you ride on a boat to get to the island right? Its a blue cape forgoodness sake, if the cape had a boat on it and/or he was stearing the ship then maybe il think diferently. If you come to think of it tho sailing (like in windwaker/Phantom hourglass) would be cool. And having dogfights on PVP worlds would be great. What's that he's holding onto? Certainly it can't be the boat?! To everyone else: We all thought hunter was a stupid skill to, because we instantly assumed it would be about catching a pig or something. Jagex turned it into a skill people love and have fun with. It's foolish to say it won't come because it's stupid or has nothing to add to the game, because that's what the developers are for.

Homosexuality: Right or Wrong?
If there were 100% hardcore proof that being gay isn't a choice then that looks like a pretty big plus for homosexual supporters. Who would argue that it is wrong to be gay even when those who are gay have no control over it? It would equate it to other uncontrollable factors such as race - and we all know how racist discrimination just derives from ignorance. Hit the nail on the head - that's probably exactly why fundamentalist types argue that it's a choice. They don't want thier opposition to homosexuality to be seen as something like racism. But at the same time I agree with the sentiments of Lateralus - it shouldn't really matter if it's a choice or not. What homoserxuals do behind closed doors, choice or not, is about as consequential to me as what movies they like to watch. I'd love to agree with you, however, that's not the view that the average person has on the subject. Unfortunately, homosexuality isn't going to conform with certain major religions, which it turn isn't conforming with the government. Which is why I gave up on politics long ago, as it's to religious based. I have a hard time believing that without the concept of religion, that we would continue to outcast homosexuals the way we do today. This is exactly the problem then, since we cannot be biased based on religion, these people are allowed to take office, congress, etc, and use their religious bias against others. This is why I long for an atheist or more open politician to take the White house, though I suppose that's a long shot with the amount of people that would vote because of his religion, rather than the issues.

{{A Very Difficult Question}}
People are comforted with statistics to make their decision. I personally wouldn't attempt to save him, because I know the possibilities of birthing a child capable of giving him blood, and having Jeff survive the years it would take to allow the child time for donation are slim

{{A Very Difficult Question}}
The more I think about it, the more I think the question previously referred to the parents blood type and was copied improperly. In the Punnet Square below, there's a 1:2:1 ratio of a child with that specific blood type. I couldn't find a picture of actual blood types or a 1:1:1:1 ratio, so bare with me. Blood-types (allele notation 'I') aren't that simple. I believe there are multiple alleles. So you'd need to take into account the dominant alleles: I^A, I^ B, and recessive allele I^o. Then again, I have no idea what you are trying to calculate, so never mind : p You're correct, I was trying to find the 1:4 chance that the situation describes, but I found little luck searching for "blood Punnet Squares" on Google. So I just took the easy way out, and represented them in the simplest manner.

Someone that understand =D. There's a difference. An embryo is referring to an egg which has been fertilized. Menstrual cycles only dispose of an egg that has yet to become fertile.

{{A Very Difficult Question}}
The doctor is stupid. He should know that there's a potential probability of that baby having a one in four chance of matching his brothers blood type. C'mon, it's a simple Punnet Square! Unless of course, they are destroying the embryos because they don't match the blood type. Either way, I wouldn't do it.

thoughts about vegatarianism
I never said it was something we should fear, rather I said it was a consequence of eating meat. Heating it to average cooking degree usually isn't enough, rendering the 99.9% a large overstatement. Bacteria, parasites, or any other organism only have a tolerance for certain limitation, this can go outside their tolerance for limited amount of time before resulting in death. It is a large problem, regardless of how well you think you're cooking your meat. The average person isn't going to dwell on absolute specifics on all portions of their meat, which is where the problem starts.

Gift ideas for girls that are just friends?
It's more of a safety gift.....because I'm afraid she'll get me something..... Gift card seems the best so far Seems logical, if she doesn't get you anything, and you don't want to make her feel like that, then you could always use it yourself.
