Its completely possible to flick your entire body round 360 degrees with a quick flick of your wrist

You can bend your limbs in a weightless scenario, as the limbs are on hinges and the muscles are pushing/pulling them about. So no water or air (please note you can't actually use air to push yourself along anyway ) is needed in order to quickly flex a limb and stop it dead. In fact, thats how you move in a weightless environment.

As far as i was aware mate the best way to survive in a vacuum would be to expel all the air from your lungs to balance the pressure and subsequently keeping you alive that slightly shorter amount longer than having the air ripped from inside you.

You need to chop off the two little ridges in the middle of the pad. The ones designed for magura backings have an extra ridge to fill out the wider central part and the cnc backings don't need it.

Very smart, i like the driving lines of colour that zoom up the screen like a colour highway/balloon. Just need to make them clickable now

I've seen and played with a lomo owned by the aforementioned "smelly art student" (ironically not the cleanliest of people so actually quite smelly) and i couldn't see the fascination with it. Sure it makes unusual pictures that could be classed as art, but with no skill being used and no real idea to the outcome of the picture it isn't really art, its seeing art in something thats been created at random. Its not like putting down a canvas and painting a picture, even if you don't know what your going to paint, as you can sculpt while your working. As far as i'm concerned its closer to blindfolding yourself and walking for a while then painting on something and claiming you meant for it to turn out that way and stating that it has meaning and resemblence. Needless to say i wasn't impressed and would much prefer to look at unusual photos that have been taken through understanding of using manual settings and lighting effects. A lot of the fisheye over saturated stuff is done better on a decent camera anyway so i don't see the point really.

Bout 30 seconds from my house opposite kfc in loughborough.

I dunno really, it just runs better. It comes back from errors better than XP (overclocking GFX card was troublesome ), pictures load up faster in folders, it generally feels smoother and everythings set out in a better way (start bar etc) The networking stuff is a breeze, and things that were troublesome before are ridiculously easy now. The internet seems faster too . Programs load far faster, the startup and shutdown times of the machine are much faster. I'm currently dual booting with vista and XP which was originally going to be so i could try out vista to see if i could live with it full time. Within a few days of use i'd switched all my programs over to vista and i use it all the time now (except level editing in crysis). When i go back into XP though.... it seems far slower, very clunky.. its just generally more annoying. Pictures take an age to load up, and its not like its a hardware issue as i've got a high spec machine.

Vistas better than XP

I guess you type really fast and find having only one keyboard restricting And theres people thinking laptops are neat and cable'less Got everything you need there really mate, mattress, perfume to stop you smelling and a bottle for piss so you don't even have to get out of bed.
-
So you want it changing from bright flash-reflection white to.... white? It practically is white already, just use your imagination. Fair enough if you wanted it black or bright red, but the change in colour from what it already is really isn't worth the time.

The only thing to note is whether the old cooler is actually socket AM2 compatible. If the old processor was a 939 theres a chance it won't fit.

Not old enough then

http://gamerscoreblog.com/team/archive/200...ntyrelease.aspx http://www.xbox.com/en-US/support/systemus...rantyupdate.htm 2 Minutes on google got me this. It took two minute because i got sidetracked by a java game on one of the links. Average turnaround on the console repairs is something like 2-4 weeks.

Ha ha, everytime people say that theres usually a wave of people going... "na, notts is mint!" "Notts has got loads of stuff, coust walls, amphitheatre, uni..." (failing to name anymore as thats about it)

Does Anyone Know Where I Can Buy Powerpad Backings?
Krisboats replied to JonMack's topic in Trials Chat
It would be optional, if they want a discount send the old pads in. If not, buy them at the full price of £10 and don't bother sending their old ones to us. I've spoken to chris (wally on here) from rimjam and the backings have indeed all gone. It was also him who put them on ebay so it would be pretty unlikely for any more to turn up. -

The pads themselves are working very well, gonna release a video pretty soon of them working. Make a lot of noise and seem to be holding as well as any other pads i've tried. I think the price is going to be around £10 a pair (not definate yet). As for pad backings being sent in for a price reduction, it is a good idea and one that we have already considered doing. It won't be any more hassle than using new backings literally a case of using pre-cut material and replacing the used material. Backingless material should also be available at a cheaper price for anyone with cnc'd backings. Unfortunately testing is already planned so the answer to any questions about if they can test for us will have to be no, sorry. -
If you don't have a signed copy of a contract yourself i'm not sure what you can do about it. The contract would be for the rental of the house and not whether he lived there (which i assume you know), so if you do have a copy of it and he hasn't made a formal cancellation of the contract that your both agreed to and have both signed then i can't see him being able to do anything. Ideally you should have kept a signed copy of the contract before you let him move in. Like i said though, if you don't have it then i don't know where you stand. You WILL be best seeking proffesional help from somewhere though, most forum answers are based on little fact and shouldn't be used as definate advice in legal matters like this.

Can't really sell them as new pads though, pretty unprofessional. -
Had a coursework extension until today so been up all night getting it done. Now its time to shower (pretty sure i stink) get food and march up to uni to hand it in and promptly collapse in a deep sleep for a few hours before riding. Hopefully i'll be knackered this evening so i drop straight to sleep without thinking about the funeral on friday.
