  1. Nintendo's wireless connection will only support WEP security. So before connecting it wirelessly, check your wireless router/wireless access point and make sure that IF it has a wireless security configured on it, it's on WEP. So the wireless security should either be Disabled or at WEP. You can check these options on the router's Web UI. If you have a Linksys router, I could help you with it. Now connecting your Nintendo DS: Just check it out here. Or follow these steps: 1. Setup Screen > tap "Nintendo Wi-Fi Settings". 2. Select a "Connection slot". 3. Tap "Search for an Access Point. (This will open a list of wireless networks detected.) 4. Select your network (or any network you want to connect to) and connect to it. It will ask your for the network key or WEP key if you have it setup on the router.
  2. The sentence "Do your best." is actually incomplete. It should have, at least, specified what is that "thing(s)" where you'll be doing your best. And what best is it. examples: Do your best. 1. Do your best to be happy. 2. Do your best to win.And it further branch out. 1. A. Do your best to be happy with your life. B. Do your best to be happy with your work.2. A. Do your best to win the girl. B. Do your best to win the contest.When quantified, best is equal to 100%. However, as mentioned earlier, the activity and goal should be specified. What Northman was saying could be true if the statement is specified. An example, based on Northman's post. A person has a fever but has to present a project. Otherwise, he'll loss his job. Because of the fever, he'll only be able to perform (60%) of his capability.Is he doing the best of his ability? Nope, just 60% of it. Is he doing the best that he can? Yes. He's doing 100% of the best that he can at that moment. So, it's just a matter of perspective.--------------Internet so slow, i had so much time the reply. hehehe. Peace!
  3. My All-time favorite is The Who (Behind Blue Eyes) and The Beatles (While My Guitar Gently Weeps). They're the bands that started it all.
  4. Music the bread of my soul.I'm not a musician but I listen tons of music from various artists 90% of which are from the rock and roll and early rock era. All time favorites are The Who, The Beatles and ASIN (a local group and pioneer or Indigenous Rock).
  5. This is not surprising. China's (by China, the man/men who rule) main goal is to maintain it's communist rule. And to supress any forms of democracy (freedom, we call it). Internet gives us all the freedom we want. We can post/shout/say anything we want with little or no barring. If you're Chinese with a democratic heart, Internet is your vent. This is what happened to Chinese bloggers. I'm not sure of the details but I think Google made a deal with the Chinese government to block certain sites (Most of which are those that provides blogging tools to the public.) What Google has in return, I don't know. And this time, Skype. I don't believe it's about "if you can't have it, close it" nor on the money. It's definitely on maintaining the "security" of the communist rulers. Security, as in, secure position? hehehe. I'm not sure. Pity on the Chinese they wont be hearing the Skype's signature "SIGH". It really sucks if we look it in our perspective. But the Chinese people has come a long way with their form of government. And hey, the Internet is not limited to Skype. I bet there are millions of ways to communicate through the Internet.
  6. Nice site. Not to flashy, loads fast and is pact with the necessary information. The artworks are western comics-inspired but there is also a mix of japanese on it. Good ones. I would love to see how the comics progress. I'm so glad to meet an comic artist. I'm a dojinka so see you here sometimes. I'll also be posting my own manga site but it's still under development and may take a while because of my work.
  7. If it's true that the universe started from Big Bang, then it follows that there will only be 1 UNIverse. The theory states that the universe was created from a gigantic explosion. So that explosion is Point 0. The existence of an alternate universe, however, is still possible. But this doesn't mean that there are other universe in our plane of existence. I'd keep on saying that there is one universe in this probability that we are currently in.
  8. That one was a good link. I'm one of those tech support guy from a networking company. The backbone for ad-hoc networking will be the SSID and Channel settings. (Which you will have to manually configure on both computers.) Then the IP Address. I'm pretty sure you can do it. Again, that's a good link.
  9. Hey, Good Luck on your belt test. I'm not the martial arts guy but I can see in movies/animes/manga how important the ranking of the belts are. If you're going to test for the brown belt, you are good. Do your best. 1 more day!
  10. Caffeine is a drug. A drug is a substance that when taken will alter some normal functions of an organism. Tigercat provided us with the effects of caffeine so that does it. :PI have an acquintance that was addicted to coffee (caffeine addiction). If she doesn't drink coffee she'd become restless and irratated. That went on for about 1 1/2 years. She finally forced herself from drinking when she suffered a hyper ventilation attack. (age 21). It has become an addiction but she was able to free herself from it. She's doing fine.
  11. I would also recommend The Gimp. It works great and the best part is that it's free! There are also good tutorials for it and has support equal to that of Photoshop.
  12. I'd say, go for him. Standards regarding the physical appearance are but standards casted by media. Well, it would be common for people to "mock" you for having a fling that short but who cares? After all, it's you who will be with him and it will be your happiness or sadness. On the other hand...People would keep on saying "Personality matters most." but it takes a courageous person to actually live to those words. go for him.

    Racism

    I'm Asian but I couldn't agree with you guys more. I'm sorry but I don't understand the agencies cited. I'm from the Philippines and the majority of the people are Christians. The remaining minority group would be the Muslims. For the most part, we do live in good harmony. However, there are just instances when the government (afraid of the Muslim Extremist Groups), wooes the minority and give them more than the majority. Racism, I guess, is everywhere.
  14. Men always compliments women. 1. Women = words Men = actions We like less talks and more actions. (Some men even have a hard time saying "I love you" to their partner.) However, we can show it by our actions. So women, read us with how we act not, most of the times, by what we say. And, one more thing. Boys really do fall in love.
  15. I agree with Mojoman. It's actually how you perceive things. You believe it or not, it's all your choice. I do believe in evolution. If you have watched this discovery channel show entitled "The Real Eve". It does show the power of evolution on explaining things. The show is about the "Real Eve." (By Eve, the one we're all of us came from in reference to the Judaeo-Christian Bible.). They were able to tracked her back to Africa, via Mitochondrial DNA. I can't provide the details as I'm not that into biology. The main idea is that we all come from a single mother. They were even able to explain why this and that. From the dark-skinned mother to the white/yellow and brown people. We evolved to suit the environment.
  16. Ragnarok is a MMORPG (Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game) based on the Manwa (the korean term for manga or graphic novel) by Lee Myung Jin. The world and story of the game is based on Norse Methology. I've been playing Ragnarok Online (Philippine Ragnarok Online [pRO] for almost 4 years now). The grapics aren't that good as WoW, Lineage, Granado Espada, ...but the gameplay is superb. There have been new character releases for each classes. You start as a Novice. Stats choices are Strength (STR), Agility (AGI), Dexterity (DEX), Intelligence (INT), Vitality (VIT) and Luck (LUK). When you reach Job Level 10, you can start choosing a class. Currently available classes are Swordsman, Thief, Mage/Magician, Archer, Acolyte and Merchant. After changing the class, you can choose a 2nd classes and the classes branch more...Swordsman - Knight or CrusaderThief - Assassin or RogueMage - Wizard or SageArcher - Hunter or Bard [M] Dancer [F]Acolyte - Priest or MonkMerchant - Blacksmith or AlchemistWhen you reach level 99 (the max level), you can do a rebirth (for Conquer Online players) which is called Transcendance..Knight - Lord KnightCrusader - PalladinAssasin - Assassin CrossRogue - StalkerWizard - High WizardSage - ProfessorHunter - SniperBard - Minstrel [M] and Gypsy [F]Priest - High PriestMonk - ChampionBlacksmith - WhitesmithAlchemist - Biochemist/CreatorThere are also new character introduced..TaeKwon Boy/Girl, the Gunslinger and Ninja..Latest news is that Gravity (the creator of Ragnarok) has already did a beta testing for the upcoming Ragnarok 2. This new release is independent of the first one and will have a full 3D sprites and background. Will be released soon. There are several private servers available. I recommend http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/. I currently have 3 main characters in pRO..A Lord Knigt, Assassin Cross and an Alchemist. Currently playing the Alchemist to transcend it to a BioChemist which is one of the powerful class...
  17. I'm really sorry to hear that...But I'm actually happy to know that I'm not alone. And I really do understand how you feel, man. Been through the same shoes you are currently on and I still think I'm still wearing the other half of the pair until now. Although yours is worse than I am. I felt so relieved when I read your post. Thanks, man. Maybe you'd feel the same way (more than the comments, suggestions and advices) if I post my own story here. I feel in love with this girl and she cheated on me so many times I don't want to count it anymore. And every time she goes back to me, I keep on accepting her like nothing has happened. And after a few months and promises, she'll do it again. I'm still wondering why I always fail to leave her after what she did to me. Maybe I'm just foolish enough to stick with her. And those cold treatment you were saying,... Yes, it's cold but it burns so much. (agree?). Well, we did break up (her decision) and I'm at lost for months..even now. I just made up my mind to set new goals. Goals where I can benefit. I believe it's the wise decision though it's still saddens me. Wish that gives you some hope that you're not alone with this kind of problems. As for her treatment, she may actually be just waiting for you to get out of her life. I know and understand how much you love her but would you go so far as learning how to hate her just to earn the courage to leave her? Sometimes, love isn't really enough. Well then mate... a toast to us...Hope to see you get up and love again.
  18. I'm a huge anine fan and it taught me how to be positive. How to be positive: 1. View the world as a source of happiness. 2. Decrease the amount of negative media (violence, wrath, etc...)3. It may sound foolish to some but it's best to pray, it give us hope. (Don't care who you are praying to. God, the trees, yourself, earth, moon, sun, sky, etc.). Just pray. 4. Look for something you can hold on to. (A hobby, a girlfriend, a passion....) and really hold on to it. hmm.. By the way, about the solution you are asking.. The answer is actually within you. A choice.
  19. You're actually normal. Just lucky enough to be able to hold back anger or you really have a long string for patience. I don't see it as supressing anger. You mentioned that you don't feel or will take a bit of time to feel anger which means there's nothing to supress. LOL.Just keep on living the way you want it to be. And I agree with OpaQue, it could really be a Gift of God. Time may come when you get so angry. Just let it be.
  20. Wow. The Islamic script is as complicated and varied as the Chinese. I personally love that Eagle/Hawk drawing with scripts all over it. It clearly suggests that art and its derivatives come from the things we percieve by our senses. I'm still in awe of the calligraphy examples. I'm not sure, but I think the scripts on the gate of the Taj Mahal is written in Islamic (Mogul). The goal was to create an illusion that a person looking at the script will perceive the scripts like it's of the same size. So the script was written in increasing dimension. What a work! Very Clever. Well, I still am not sure if that's a Islamic Calligraphy... but it does look like The Diwani Scripts.
  21. I'm sorry, I'm lazy to check other posts. There will only be one Universe. The name itself suggests that it's a single 'thing'. Uni = Single, One. However, there is a possibility of an alternate universe. But I would love to think of a Multiverse. I've had quantum chemistry classes (where I almost failed), and my understanding is that universe (our universe, that is) exists as a series probabilities. There is only one universe at this probability (1 of the infinite).
  22. I believe the red shift has some connections to the Doppler effect.
  23. It's still 1 year and 3 months after college. I work at a techinical support center for some computer networking company and still works there.
  24. The human body aims to reach equilibrium. While you're still alive, it never reaches that equilibrium. As time goes by, we age. The body stops to grow and the fight for equilibrium starts. This is where we start to deteriorate. Inevitably, equilibrium is reach. As we all know, a system under equilibrium will stick to it unless an outside stress is supplied. Unfortunately, we have little knowledge of human life and functions. We don't know what is the necessary stress needs to be applied and to what part (soul, emotions, physical functions, electrical activities and all other aspects of the human system.) We die.
  25. @biscuitrat: That was quiet a biking experience. :DMine would be my first kiss with my GF. It's not the frenchie but its the one from the heart. I've been with other girls, kissed them but its totally different if you love the person. We're almost 2 years now and I'm more happy everyday. That's the happiest. I'm sure it will be happier if we have a family. Still a long way to go. Hehehe.
