» Film speed in Snow?
Hi everyone, i'm new and wondered if you could help me. We are going on holiday in January to Canada, I'm not sure what speed of film to use for the snow and Niagra Falls etc. At work they have been selling off some films half price so i've bought some Kodak 400 speed. I have a Canon EOS 500N and tend to just use the auto mode, therefore I just point and shoot! (Sorry, lazy I know!) Do you think the 400 is suitable or too fast? thanks in advance for your help. :DWelcome to the Forum. I don't think film speed will matter very much if you are shooting snow. If anything you might want lower speed film like 100. What you have to be aware of is that your camera will meter snow and think "it's too bright" and therefore make the exposure ...... - 2009-07-04
» Anyone care to explain what a deprecated method is in Java?
What is a deprecated method, how will I know if a method is deprecated and should I use one or should I find an alternative?Deprecated methods have been designated as 'old' or 'unsafe' and have been replaced by other methods. If you use a deprecated method, you will get a diagnostic from the compiler/interpreter telling you that it's deprecated and suggesting a new method. Deprecated is functionality which should not be used in code because it may eventually be removed completely from the language. It will usually remain in the language for several versions for compatibility, to give programmers a chance to update their code before breaking the programs completely. Items are designated as deprecated because t...... - 2009-07-04

is there any way if u fix papers to go into canada that u will be denied entrance just because u were deported from the united states.Once you are deported from ANY country, the chances of you getting admittance to another is very slim. Sorry.If you are a Canadian citizen, you will be deported to Canada. If you are a citizen of any other country, you will be deported to your country of citizenship.

» Question about lens on D80?
Hey guys I was looking at this 50mm Nikkor lens to get for my Nikon D80. http://www.adorama.com/NK5018AFDU.html I know with the D80 there is a difference in mm of the lens once you put it on the camera. I think they call it crop factor or something, im not sure. Anyway once you put this lens on the camera what will the mm actually be??The Nikon DX format has a crop factor of 1.5x. Multiplying 50mm by 1.5 gives you a 75mm. That's a great lens btw.I was also confused by those number as well in the past. And thanks to Big Mike corrected me. So basically, the 50mm lens when mounted on your camera, it is still a 50mm lens. The 1.5x crop factor basically means when it compare to a regular 35mm film camera or a DSLR with a full frame sensor ...... - 2009-07-04
» Paying income taxes on IRA distributions
I have taken a distribution from my Traditional IRA in 2006. When must I send a tax payment for this distribution? Must this be done when I take the distribution or can I wait until next year when I file my tax return? Thanks Marty Kovacs mkovacs@attglobal.netI have been doing taxes this year, and the short answer is... it depends. Primarily it depends on how much you want to owe at the end of the year and whether there will be any penalties on your overall tax bill. There is nothing that requires you to pay tax on this income immediately, but if you would rather be safe than sorry, you could make an estimate on your state and federal taxes, but I would consult your tax advisor for information specific to your situation, I reall...... - 2009-07-04

For something smaller, I would suggest somewhere in the $10 to $20 range. You should always tip when they are providing you with a service.

And Yanagisawa repeated his apology over his "machine" remark.

» buying a circular polarizer!
What do I have to look for when buying a circular screw-on polarizer for me lens under $70? What difference does it make that some are super multi-coated or multi-coated? What role does the thinness of the glass play? and any recommendations for brands?If you're looking under $70, you're going to have to look for used unless you're very lucky. Brands to consider are Hoya, Tiffen, B+W. Don't worry about phrases like "super multi-coated" or "Specially designed for digital cameras" it's all advertising hype. The thickness of the glass is only relevant if you're buying a special 'thin-mount' filter, normally for use on wide-angle lenes. These filters normally don't have female threads, so you can't attach anything in front of them.http://...... - 2009-07-04

You need a safe place to live, (protection from the elements) healthy food, and water. Everything else is probably a want -- wait 30 days before purchasing anything. You probably will have forgotton all about it by then. Live within your means, do not borrow money, save money to buy big ticket items. Do not make excuses to break those simple rules.

She is captured by the Nazis and tortured, and she finally yields revealing where she has information written on a tiny piece of paper. A late scene shows her a broken soul, exiting from a concentration camp. The movie was in color and did not appear to be an old movie. There were no stars that I recognized. I would like to know the name of the movie, and where I can buy or rent it. The following movies have been ruled out: Shining Through, Charlotte Gray, Hanna's War, Plenty, Max and Helen.Could it be "Wish Me Luck"? Wish Me Luck (3/91) This ITV drama shows the feminist side of World War II and the B...... - 2009-07-04

There are three ways you can get your backpack custom embroidered. One is to take it to a shop where they do that. There are places that do embroidery for you (usually on things like letterman jackets), often combined with a trophy shop. Another way is to do it yourself with an embroidery machine. These are expensive, so maybe you could ask a relative who has one. The least expensive way to do it is to hand embroider it yourself. This takes some time but it's not hard and you can completely customize it....... - 2009-07-04
» 5/09/06 DISC: North AL
As a followup to Dave Gallaher's lone report from North AL on 5/9/2006, looks like Huntsville NWS found two tornado tracks, one adjoining an area of straight-line wind damage.

» Question about lens on D80?
Hey guys I was looking at this 50mm Nikkor lens to get for my Nikon D80. http://www.adorama.com/NK5018AFDU.html I know with the D80 there is a difference in mm of the lens once you put it on the camera. I think they call it crop factor or something, im not sure. Anyway once you put this lens on the camera what will the mm actually be??The Nikon DX format has a crop factor of 1.5x. Multiplying 50mm by 1.5 gives you a 75mm. That's a great lens btw.I was also confused by those number as well in the past. And thanks to Big Mike corrected me. So basically, the 50mm lens when mounted on your camera, it is still a 50mm lens. The 1.5x crop factor basically means when it compare to a regular 35mm film camera or a DSLR with a full frame sensor ...... - 2009-07-04
» Paying income taxes on IRA distributions
I have taken a distribution from my Traditional IRA in 2006. When must I send a tax payment for this distribution? Must this be done when I take the distribution or can I wait until next year when I file my tax return? Thanks Marty Kovacs mkovacs@attglobal.netI have been doing taxes this year, and the short answer is... it depends. Primarily it depends on how much you want to owe at the end of the year and whether there will be any penalties on your overall tax bill. There is nothing that requires you to pay tax on this income immediately, but if you would rather be safe than sorry, you could make an estimate on your state and federal taxes, but I would consult your tax advisor for information specific to your situation, I reall...... - 2009-07-04

Hi all! I am new to the business, have been photographing for years, went to art school for college, but just now decided to officially open up my business in the community. My dilemma is how to price my photography services, prints, albums, etc. I've tried to compare to other photographers, but the prices are so different, some charge very little while some charge way too much. For session fees, I've been generally comparing myself to other photographers and picking a good round number that I think is fair for me and for the client. For prints, I try and lo-ball it to be affordable for now, but not too low so that I don't cheat myself out (5x7 prints start at $35).

For something smaller, I would suggest somewhere in the $10 to $20 range. You should always tip when they are providing you with a service.

hi guys, I have read up on the website and understand most of it but I have a few questions. Do I need a fast internet connection to be able to run it? how much space do I need to run a adverage sized website/forum my pc has 300gb is that enough? Is Vbulletin hard to use? And is there anything I shoud check before attempting to make my own website/forum?

» Radio Show: "Thank You, Stusia"
I would like brief, basic information about the c. 1936 radio show "Thank You, Stusia": premise/story line(s), major characters & cast, etc. A promotional token indicates that the series was sponsored by Alka-Seltzer and may have been based in 15th century Spain ("Gracias Stusia 1477"). There was also a song titled "Thank You, Stusia," possibly the program theme, written by Jack Frost in 1936.This sounds like the same show that another customer described here: http://www.answers.google.com/answers/threadview?id=334863Thanks, pinkfreud!

» Catholics like to Pray to Holy Mary and all the Saints as intercessor and statue of Mary , is it a sin?it?
When they worship the holy Mary statue will the spirits entities enter itIt is wrong the bible warns about idolatry , Saints are supposed to act as middle men between us and god. The bible says no one comes to god except through Jesus. When looking for a religion you must compare the churches actions to the bibles teachings. The churches are rotten fruit.We don't think the spirits entities are inside the statue, we pray to the saints or The Virgin, the statues only represents them. Our images help us to be more in contact with God and with Virgin Mary or with the saints.Prayer. What a concept, a God who is to disconnected to know what is in our best interest. Would God really need advice? love and blessings DonCatholics, ...... - 2009-07-04

» Twilight Kissing Scene?
My favorite scene in the whole movie is the kissing scene. I have been trying to find it on the computer but I keep getting the teaser or the pictures. I sometimes get the scene from where she is like â śhow did you get in hereâ ť all the way to where he says â śStopâ ť but it is in dark brown and you canâ ™t see it. I would like to find the whole scene in color and no music playing.(kind of like it is in the movie) Thank youSince this movie is so new, there won't be any specific references to that scene.

» American Indian wedding in San Diego ?
I am from India, and my fiance is from here. We are planning a fusion wedding in San Diego. Our budget is $15,000 and around 100 people. We can either have a separate Indian ceremony before the reception or have one big ceremony. Anyone have any suggestions? We are having a tough time finding a place. Has anyone used the Powerhouse Community Center in Delmar?On that budget you've got less than $150 per person. Lean toward the Indian size of fusion and less traditional western themes. It will be cheaper and more dramatic to those you know nothing of your heritage. Call in favors from relatives and friends too. Do it outside to save more money. No tents! Don't forget to ask at the temple if they have recommendations. I had some f...... - 2009-07-04

With the internet there is no reason why we even need politicians anymore couldn't the people do a better job at deciding what is best for the country.
