  1. You'll probably have to give more information if want to get any more help. First of all though, what kind of game is this? If it is a flash game on a website the standard download should be as a swf. If it is a flash game that you have to download to play (and can't play in a browser) it will likely be either a [Caution: ExecutableFile] (windows) or hqx (Mac.) If you want to save a game that isn't made with flash though, you probably can't save it as a swf. But, you'll need to say more. PDM
  2. I live over in Massachusetts, USA and two days ago it snowed for like half an hour. It was only a small dusting but it was rather weird weeing how it was a somewhat warm day. PDM
  3. Yes, I use that extension. It makes all of the links download while you are reading the page so that when you deciede to move on the next page is already there, you just have to open it up. It doesn't really help for posting however. PDM
  4. Its not just the population. It is also the fact that the human species evolves to protect itself from disease by having the weak people die. This way the stronger more advanced genes would live and thus have more room to expand. As for the killings, I would not do it. The only way it should possibly happen is if those 500 people were willing and wanted to do it. PDM
  5. Ha, very nice quote. For mine, a friend told me this one a few days ago. Odi et amo. Quare id faciam, fortasse requiris? Nescio, sed sentio fieri, et excrucior I hate and I love - why do I do this, perhaps you ask? I don't know, but I feel it being done, and I am crucified Anyways, I find it very moving. I can't really find the words to explain what it means, but for me it relates to how awful the evil in the world truely is... PDM
  6. Actually I heard that the guy who was shot apolgized to Cheeney because of all of the mental turmoil he must have put him through. What !!!!! If anybody should be apolgzing it is Cheeney. Something needs to be done. America is so extremely messed up right now but nothing is being done. It gets worse and worse everyday. The US is always braging about the constitution and bill of rights and yet everyday it is passing legislation that undermines everything america is said to datnd for. The US is just using terrorism as a cover for what they are doing. They say that terrorism is bad, and yet they do equaly bad or worse things to others. They torture. A bill was passed allowing the US to use torture to prevent a terrorist attack. They also added a phrase saying that terrorism includings everything against the US law. So now anybody could be tortured when ever the gov feels it. And did anybody in congress object. No, only one person did. Sorry to go so off track. By the way I live in the US myself. PDM
  7. Yes, but the main thing from the bible shouldn't be the facts but the lessons. Anyways maybe each of the seven days were extremely long days, like 500 million years each day. Then it would be correct. Many of the messages are good but the bible is not perfect. Man is not perfect and therefore can only try to mimic God's perfection. Also, the bible is lacking certain texts. Correct me if I am wrong but I believe that the bible was put together by a group of clergy men. They used texts that people had written. However they did not use all of it and left much stuff out of the old testament that could/should have gone in. Therefore the bible can not be entirely correct and people should just interpret it their own way. Religion comes from within. PDM
  8. For me probably 6th grade and below. I had one very good friend and a few others but we didn't really do much. Then I joined drama in 7th grade, and loved that. Now I'm a freshman in highschool and a whole lot of friends in all the grades and a few very good friends. The only problem is that all of my friends are kind of clustered in one or two areas of town and I'm not in either of those areas so they can just walk across the street to do something while I have to convince my parents to take me over, etc. PDM
  9. Do both your parents have outies? If so I'd guess that belly buttons are passed through genes. If not... no idea. In for me PDM
  10. Also if you want to stop the plan, they make you pay some outrageously high termination fee. If someone else in your family has a cell phone, try getting a family plan. I got my phone for "free" for only 10 dollars a month because my mom has the same phone. PDM

    Bullying...

    First of all remember that your the better person. I don't know all the details but I'm guesssing that later in life you'll do well and he won't. Anyways, ask a teacher who you trust and like and have them do something to stop the bully. Chances are they will do it and will leave you out if you ask them (make sure you pick a good teacher.) Asking a smart question would probably be pretty good too. Lastly, just have courage. If he does something bad to you then you can easily get him suspended if you don't fight back. PDM
  12. Yeah, I see what you mean. My parents are somewhat like that too but most of the motivation comes from myself. Find something you really like and try to do great in that. Personally I love math but dislike english. However I still work hard on english because if I have any chance of going to a very good college for math I need to be very good at english too. So just look around for something interesting. Or try going on wikipedia and looking all over, I always find that motivational. As for distractions, try turning off the internet while you work. I have a similar problem of procrastinating and it works well for me (I still have a bunch of homework and a project due tommorow yet I'm on here posting, I should probably do that myself now.) PDM
  13. Short term: friends music drama sleep computer Long term: camping nature hiking canoeing building stuff PDM
  14. Usually it is: 1 math 2science 3social studies (history) 4language 5english however this year it is 1social studies - great teacher 2math - I like math 3language (spanish) - one of my best friend sits next to me and we look up the most abstract phrases in spanish 4english - interesting teacher and good view on life 5science (bio) - not that great teacher, anyways chem and physics are better PDM
  15. Thats awful and I wish him and his family the best of luck. I am truely sorry for what happened.
  16. Personally I think one of the problems with this is that what the schools have just don't cut it. I'm in highschool and yet the school meal servings are the same size as that of the rest of the grades in the town. One of those school meals might be fine for a kindergardener, but not someone older. The quality of school meals aren't even good. What do people expect will happen if there is no alternative to eatting fatty foods. Buying one bad, small school meal costs the same as a filling amount of fatty goods so guess what many people do. Thats why I usually bring my food. It gets boring, but it is better and cheaper. The other big issue I have with this is why does the government think they can do this. Children's rights are slowly getting smaller. (Along with that of other people too.) I mean back 20 or 30 years ago, kids could go to a nearby store to get stuff to fiddle around with. Stuff like engines, electrical components, and fuel. These days if you want to build something it comes in this little fancy kit and no thinking or creativeness is involved. Sorry that that is somewhat off topic though. PDM
  17. Sing Sang Sung by Goordon Goodwin's Big Phat Band (smooth jazz, very good instruments and feel) PDM
  18. I'm not sure, but I'm guessing that its just english in one of those weird fonts. Maybe try fiddling around with wingdings if you have windows. PDM
  19. Apparently they have to quide the sled/bobsleds to kepp them from flying off the course or flipping over. I know that there are handles inside the bobsled for steering the runners and I suppose that in luge and skeleton they have to just steer by moving their weight around. I don't think the people in the back of the bobsled do anything though except just push off and then duck down. Personally I love the winter olympics. Pretty much all of the sports intrest me (I'm not into figure skatting.) I'm not that much into summer olympics, but I do enjoy them somewhat. PDM
  20. hey that was pretty good, im defenetly going to link to it somewhere
  21. Yeah, whenever I'm reashearching something for school I always find other stuff that intrests me and instead of reasearching what I need to I read about random other things that intrest me. I remember when I first learned relativety, there was this kind of energy flowing through me that was just great. Other than wiki, google, and mathmatica, I don't know anyothers. PDM

    Google Earth

    Those are great pictures but I don't think I would use it enough for it to be worthwhile of me downloading. It does look pretty cool though (I'm watching a sample movie of the $400 version right now.) PDM
  23. Yes I agree with exarch about snape being good. However, unlike most posts here, I don't think that dumbledore was begging for his life or begging for snape to kill him and stay in the order. Dumbledore wouold never beg for his life and I doubt he would value a spy more than himself. Instead, I think that dumbledore was begging for snape to protect harry. Snape would be perfect to do this because voldy will most likely call the deatheaters to watch or have them nearby when voldy and harry, making snape be at the perfect place to protect harry. Also, we know how much more dumbledore valued harry over himself; willing to be killed so that harry will have some extra protection. PDM
  24. I've played it a bunch (though I'm not that good still) and I must agree that it is a great game. Also, for all the people who say that they can't find anyone to play, just go to the link with the list of msns (that is usually the only way I am ever able to find people to play.) Also, talk to me on msn if anyone wants to play. PDM
  25. Ohh thanks. It doesn't exactly solve the problem, but that sure does help getting up programs faster. :D Thanks PDM
