It's a kitchen gadget - why buy a toaster, when you can make toast in the oven? Because then you don't have to start up the whole oven just to make toast. Same with a rice cooker - most don't do anything special, but they can use a small amount less of...
Unfortunately, because your sense of smell is very closely linked with your sense of taste, it's impossible for you to figure out if you have bad breath on your own. This is the main reason that tic tacs & other breath mints are so popular, because if ...
That sounds like a good plan, actually. Perhaps hide the stuff they are supposed to find at local businesses, so that when you write it up & promote the event on local radio, print publications, etc, the sponsors get a write up & perhaps some pictorial...
I'd recommend flash, by Adobe (used to be macromedia till adobe acquired them). Flash can do all kinds of things, and there are several cartoons on TV that are done with Flash. It's a very versatile program, and in many ways, the best one out there....
It's all about how many people you can look down on, to reassure yourself that you are "somebody"...the more peple beneath you, the better you are doing. Real estate & where people chose to live is a funny thing to me.
That bit about chores is a good one...however, if you're lazy like me try what I'm doing: book dinner at a nice restaurant, arrange flowers at the table & a note card...other than that, be extra nice. (though if you have time the suggestions from skeed...
Never tried them - edamame is some kind of soy, yes? Thanks for the tip though, next time I'm looking for a snack, I might try those.
Google docs is great, I've used it myself to share a running log of things to do with some friends. However, the automatic formatting I'm used to in Word, the automatic spell correction, etc, isn't there yet in Google docs, so for me, it's a supplement...
Sorry to hear about your friend. I'd advise him to check out a CPO (certified pre owned) car, or if he can, check out craiglist used cars on a friends computer. The yellow pages, imho, aren't very useful to find something like a used car. There are ton...
Generally, it's because when you are in PT or physical therapy, you are trying to coax your body back into better physical condition, using muscles that haven't been used for a while, exercising new bone & tissue, etc, so it's going to hurt, unfortunat...
Bob Marley had 13 children in total, three of them were with his wife, Rita. Two more were adopted from his wife's prior relationships, and the 8 of them were with other women. He was a busy guy.
CSS stands for cascading style sheets, which are typically used in conjunction with XHTML 1.0, the latest spec from the World Wide Web Consortium, the standards organization that makes recommendations on internet protocols & things. CSS has been aro...
Sure, it makes sense. By the time a TV show is made out of a financial trend - or a movie for that matter - this particular trend has reached critical mass. Thus, by the time the movie comes out, or the TV show airs on TV, the trend has started to shif...
Hi there, welcome to FunAdvice. I'm Steve.
I've read here that there are some "gold generators" that might work, but most of them sound like spyware or adware, so I'd be very, very careful about using such software. Unfortunately, it may be that the best way to get more gold in gaia is to wo...
Best way to make money (imho) is Google Adsense, and then if you have something that meshes well, AWS (amazon web services) and then also Cafe Press or Zazzle or Qoop for personalized tchachke's such as mugs, t-shirts, etc, which people can order on de...
NSA in this context means "no strings attached". Best, Steve
LOL, this is a funny one...but I don't think so. Nothing can change the internal workings of your digestion to ensure that a certain odor always came out.
I hope not, the whole idea is disturbing.
This seems like a very promising place to start: http://www.wga.org/writtenby/writtenby.aspx Best, thedude
There was a small pizzaria that I loved near my work when I was in Chelsea, in New York - the national chains are never as good as the local pizzarias.
Pies refers to making a wedge with the shape of the skis to help you stop & slow down. To go faster, you put the skis in the shape of fries lying next to each other. I think it's a metaphor that kids grasp quickly. Some people refer to the wedge sh...
Take a break from your work / school / etc, and try meditating. That will relieve some of the stress. Just sit in a quite place, cross your legs, relax your arms, close your eyes, and focus on breathing for 5-10 minuts. It's amazingly rejuvenating & wi...
Over the years, I've had compaq, hp, gateway, and vaio laptops. I've also asked this same question to some friends, and have worked at a few well known computer companies. The answer I've most often heard is that IBM ones are the best. I use a vaio ...
It sounds like it is, but there are already shortages & I've seen some articles about auctions on eBay for a PS3 going for ten grand or more. While the auctions there for play station three's might not close at that number, it's still a lot of money fo...
The swirling plastic vortext is a term used for a large mass of plastic and debris in the pacific ocean which contains a massive land mass of garbage. If it was land, the area would be the same size as Texas. Since this large mass of debris has form...
Try taking short 1-3 min breaks every half hour. From what I've read in the past, prolonged periods of sitting with no stretching are very bad for you. Get up & do something man!
Is that a game? You might try ebay or craigslist...this is more for advice / questions & answers, etc...there might be other gamers here, but it might take you a while to find one that can hook you up.
I like italian food. Bruschetta makes a nice appetizer, bread covered with tomatillo based salsa made with cilantro. Baking holiday cookies is always a treat for a holiday party too! Those little sausages "pigs in a blanket" work wonders as well, l...
OMG, I can't believe it...what is she trying to tell me???
Another person had a pretty similar quesiton, and they got a great reply here: http://www.funadvice.com/q/who_makes_the_best_kitchen_knives Seems like those are the best couple of brands to go with listed there. Best, Steve
Brands? I go with what's cheap for cookware. Eventually, all the stainless stuff stops working anyway.
Cute bed! My boys never had car beds as kids, they went from baby beds to a bunk bed. The car looks like it must be fun though. I haven't seen a beetle one before.
Yes, that's right. Um - invest in a calculator ;)
All you need to do is clean the thing with a soft sponge, when they say dont' use an abrasive one, they're serious. I've ruied a fair number of non stick pans over the years, none of them were calphalon (caphalon?) but more generic brands. I think all ...
