Well I know it isn't one you suggested by a few people I know do kick-boxing and they have shown us demonstarations before and it all seems it would be practical and useful in real life. You are also taught the use of some weapons once certain belt levels have been reached etc. However you can only use most martial arts in self defence and need a licence I believe

I'd have to agree, I have owned an Xbox360 since launch (UK) and have found it to be very reliable, nothing like may say with the red lights curse and what have you. I did buy a PS3 at launch however it collected lots of dust in the short time I owned it, used mainly for a Blu-Ray player over a games console. I found the online service to be good in terms of lag however almost no-one had a mic making the experience very boring, well to me it was considering I am sued to Xbox360 where everyone and their dog has a mic. The 360 also has a much wider and more openly appealing library of games at the moment, appealing to all strands of gamer. Microsoft also has ideas to produce a new 360 with a Blu-Ray and HDDVD player in-built, also supposedly with a 500GB hard drive, IE 7 and the ability to pause, rewind etc. live TV (thus the large HDD). However I can't compare these systems tot he Wii as I am yet to have the pelasure of playing this console, but from what I have learnt the Wii isn't for me anyway (too childish). Overall 360 is the best.

I have recently been looking into some topics on another unknow planet within our system known as planet 'X' this planet suppsosedly is the only true fact of how our Earth could've been created. Every 50,000 years this planet passes extremely closely to Earth and the last time it smashed the planet in half with a full blown impact, one half formed Earth while the other is unknown as of today. If half of this planet has fromed us then surely the other half would be able to inhabit life depending on it's position within the universe. For thos wondering this planet is supposed to next pass Earth in 2012 and is thus recorded as being the Apocalypse by Mayans and thus why their calendar ends on the 21st decmber 2012. Nostradarmos (sp) also has recordings of such an Apocalyptic event and he also has a date set at 2012.

I am 15 and live in the UK currently I am studying 13 GCSE's and hope to go on to study A levels and something at Uni. What I do at Uni will obviously depend on all my grades but I am leaning towards something to do with design/graphics either architecture/landscaping or computer animation/video game design.

Computer games are just another way of relieving stress and having fun with mates. Now you have the ability of services such as xbob live it is a way of communicating with those overseas, socialising with mates over a game etc. When you also play at a competitive level either for a clan or more seriously in international competitions it can also become a lifestyle and a way of earning a living.

i'm fat and I don't care, it's what's on the inside that counts Yes I would like to loose some weight but I eat too much

I see how you feelt his happened to me with greenday tickets. ticket master and see tickets and stuff had run out within a few minutes. I looked on ebay and bam hundreds of tickets going for way more than the standard price. I waited and waited looking on various other sites for tickets. To my surprise i checked back on see tickets and they had thousands more tickets :S I jumped in as quick as I could to buy them luckily i got some . Next time ring one of the companies or the helpline for getting tickets and ask if you could like pre-order some or pay a little extra and have some kept by for you.

Defend yourself where? When at home i'd just grab for my BB gun and fire it or my pen knife I keep both these beside my bed for safety. If I was like getting mugged i'd hit their face or crotch if it was a man. If theyw as armed I'd shouted and run and hit and stuff... I don't know any martial arts but am quite strong and big, not many people would mess with me.

Whats your best stats? Are you a member? do you know the little tips of the trade? Ask yourself these questions first, if you're not a member you won't make BIG cash as easy. If you're stats aren't too high you won't make big cash easy. There are many ways top make cash though, one of the easiest being dueling/PKing. Train up your combat stats depending if you want to be a dueler or Pker duelers have defence Pkers don't! then hack your opponents apart. Try mining/smithing, mine ores and make bars, usually steel are quite good to make, or jsut mine coal. fishing/cooking if you have a good fishing level fish lobsters, swordfish, sharks and fish like this. I find the best way for me to make money though is the infamous merchanting... I buy rune ore or bars, mine 8 coal per ore. Go to a rune smither and ask him/her to make me rune kites. Sell them for 50-55k and make a nice 20k profit.

A lot of my friends have this game and say it's great, one of the best need for speeds yet. I don't know about online play yet, but whatever it is when I get my 360 (4 days) I'll be getting it and playing live on it . I'm sure it's jsut as excellent as the offline play.

In school I jsut do my work and try and stay outta trouble, if theres a fight we'll watch it but never be in it. Whereas out of school I'll be the one fighting with the others watching. But heh thats jsut me I enjoy fighting lol

At our school we have two technicians who think they own the place. They try to give out detentions for stupid stuff, one tried to give my friend a detention for laughing when she thought he was laughing at her, and they aren't even allowed to give detentions. All they know is stuff about if you lsot/forgot your password or if a simple program goes wrong.

Your quite talented well done.

I read this in the newspaper yesterday, he got a 12 month house leese(bad spelling I know) or something now :S. Although if everyone tried to do this it wouldn't work as people wouldn't tarde expensive things for stuff worth less unless they really needed them. But well done to him for getting up to a house....

Yes thanks I had a great easter, lots of chocolate

We have norton antivirus and firewall 2004. We find this very good as it's only ?12 per YEAR, not as good as something thats free, but it's a very good antivirus. The annoying things for this is it's kind of expensive when you buy it, and they keep bringing out new versions with 'better' features and protection.

Spanish Pikemen Rush. Yet another of my Age of Empires Strategies. This time a rush (building an army quickly to destroy or critically harm an enemy). This rush needs good villager micro, a fair understanding of rushes and a Spanish civilization around level 10+. It is also good to know how a FF works. The Strategy. As usual put all your villagers on huntables and leave one to collect the crates, food first then wood and finally gold. Make villagers as soon as you can, set their gather point on a huntable animal. Once the crates have been collected build a house with the villager used for collecting the crates. Depending on how much wood is left build a market, if you don?t have enough wait for a bit until you do. Make this villager collect food along with the rest once the house and/or market are built. The first card you send should be 3 villagers, if you don?t have this send 2. Don?t go over 16 villagers. Age up as soon as you have 800 food, choose the villager politician. While ageing up move 5 villagers to gold, and 5 or 6 to wood depending on if you have 15 or 16 villagers. So now you have 5 on food 5 on gold and 5/6 on wood. If you haven?t already build a market when you have the wood. When you get your next card send the 8 pikemen card. Don?t stop building villagers, and when you need to build houses. As soon as you have 250 spare wood build a barracks. From this barracks train 10 pikemen. As you train new villagers split these 1 on food, then gold and finally wood. You don?t need more than around 10 on each resource for now, but less will do fine. Whenever you have the resources needed age up, choose the 10 pikemen politician. For your next card send either 700 wood or food, Whichever you have less of. Once the age up finishes you should have 28 pikemen and a good economy. Upgrade your pikemen to veteran. Now you choose to hit the enemy with this army or continue to build up a stronger army. If you choose to attack the enemy, make sure you know what your target is going to be. I suggest buildings that have an economic advantage or housing at this stage. If you continue to build up an army train another 10 pikemen. Your next card should be the 1 or 2 falconet card, these will help in taking out units that come for your pikemen, and also aid in building destroying. Build an artillery foundry and train falconets so with the card you have at least 5. Now fill the rest of your 50 army slot with pikemen. You should now have around 45 veteran pikemen and around 5 falconets. This is when you attack, if you want to totally wipe out the enemy I suggest having some rodeleros or skirmishers for helping with infantry. Find a good place to enter your enemies base by scouting with either a war dog or your explorer. Walk to this place trying to avoid your enemies line of sight, Rush in as quick as you can with the skirms/rodeleros to raid his units, these will act as your meatshield, Use your falconets to start on buildings if there isn?t much of an infantry, if there is set them on units. Your Pikemen should start taking out military buildings and towers, start with the building he is using to train infantry (barracks/blockhouse) this way he is pushed to build another or build cavalry which are countered by pikemen. Now help your pikemen with your falconets. Pick off buildings one by one storming through his base, let your skirms/rods go off by themselves. After this it should be GG. BUT don?t forget to train more units if your army dies. If he has massed infantry try again with 2 armies, 50 skirms/rods and 45pikes with falcs Cards. 700 wood 700 food 700 gold 2/3 villies 8 pikemen Recommended Cards. 1000 food 1000 wood 1000 gold 2 falcs. Mercenaries Tips. Micro - walk your villies to the opposite side of huntables before shooting to herd them towards your TC. Make sure you use your units against what they counter, it?s no good putting pikemen out against 10 falconets, they?ll get owned! Cards ? Make sure you have sufficient cards for strategies. Also make sure you use the cards and they are of use to you. It?s no good having ship cards on an all land map. Pease feel free to give comments/criticism, and I hope this helps you.

I listen to almsot any music but classical and dance/techno. I don't like all thos kind of brassy instruments and pianos. i would only listen to dance/techno if I was in a club...It's not really my thing though.

I don't thinkt his would work. the currents running throguh the air would damage electrical devices. planes, hospital etc. wouldn't be able tow rok properly because of the equipment getting damaged. It may even harm people, like an electric shock.

I suggest handing in your homework after class as you do. If your friends keep being childish either get some new friends, or tell your parents to phone the schoola dn force them to do soemthing. Frankily no offence or nothing but I think your headtechers idea was a bit silly

Yeh, I suggest trying online help on the creative website. If this doesn't help phone them. Still if it's no good type/write a letter and send it to creative along with the broken item. They should repair/replace it if something's wrong. Or take it to a local computer reapir store and see what they say about it.

my brother the 'geek' of the familly says that a wired routr would be better as it's faster, and we aren't connecting the systems very far, the computers next to my xbox, and we then have another computer in the opposite room so.....

I voted for SM I like the effect on the edge of the render as if it's sprinting extremely fast

I got banend from runescape like 7 times back in the day I also have a stroy about some high level players no-one believes but is most definately true... anyway runescape is a great game very fun when your in a higher level, but when you start out it is very boring training up your stats. If you have the money I suggest world of warcraft is much better.

My name is dad! It is used in the poem, and as quite a lot of poems have their title in the poem I thoguht why not. But a lot of the time there is one line thats repeated and thats used as the title, so this ones kinda hard.
