What is the best way of extending the flash of slr cameras away from the hot shoe? £30 for the extension cable I want to sync a couple of flashes "off" the camera as a cheap way of studio lighting for REAL amateur studio effects with diffusing material of some sort. I have seen the hot shoe extension leads but these are £30 odd, is there a cheaper way of doing this as it seems expensive for a lead? I would ideally like to run two or three lights from one camera. What should i buy and where from???? | | The cheap way would be just using pc-sync cables wouldn't it, or does your body not have an old style sync terminal? | Looking for a haunted place to do a ghost hunt?

Trust me, I do alot of it in Az!!! | Amateur Boxing How to start? I want to get into Boxing, this is something i have really been wanting to do for the Longest Time, I'm 6'5 I weight about 250lbs I've got long arms and i no I can Hit very very hard with my right, i've been practicing Jumps rope for about the last year or so, an have gotten then hand of it, and have learned some combination punches and recently this summer, learned hot to hit the speed bag in rhymith, I'm not sure if you guys have noticed but for the last few years I have been on the forum almost every couple of days trying to learn the history of the sport, and as much as I can about boxing. I realized that since I'm 22 yrs old and never really sparred or got into the ring an fought, that i've got alot to learn but I want to now how do I get into amateur boxing an compete? | | Wow Champ keep at it your a true heavy weight just stay dedicated and work on your flaws then everything will come into place in no time you'll feel that boxing's easy. You'll want To compete with the big boys the experience's elites. ;-) | Taking compliments? I hate when people tell me I'm pretty/sexy/hot. I don't agree with them at all. And even if I did, I still hate it, because they are not seeing me for who I am they're judging me on how I look. Positive or negative, it really freaking bothers me.
In my eyes, it's not like guys compliment women because they genuinely think a woman is attractive. They're just saying it in hopes they'll get laid or score a couple amateur porn pics if its online. I wasn't born yesterday, I have a lot of guy friends, and none of them are particularly popular with the ladies. They don't bother going for attractive girls cause those girls are out of their league. Since attractive guys don't talk to/go for me but once in a blue moon, I would assume a lot of people have been lying to me.
When attractive guys DO flirt with me I get so insecure and nervous I f*ck it all up and blow my chances.
I think I can handle being unattractive, but being lied to?
myspace.com/synthesiamcat | I don't think you are being lied to, trust me...*a guy wouldn't tell you were pretty if you weren't, they wouldn't want to see you naked if they didn't think you were attractive! Lol am I right?
I think perhaps the reason why MORE attactive guys aren't flirting with you is because you have 0 self confidence, guys can sense that. Hold you head up high, and tell yourself you deserve the best. | Are we a cute couple? pics included? i've done some amateur modeling
he hasn’t, he just hot

for reference: myspace.com/synthesiamcat | Why wouldn't you agree with the compliments? People's views are different than yours. Just like when you see a great shirt and someone else may not like it so much...it doesn't mean they're wrong or you're wrong.
So what if they are lies or not...take compliments as just that...compliments...nothing more and nothing less. And if you choose to return the compliment, do so...if not, thank them. If men were just complimenting you to get in your pants, you'll know by trusting your instincts. If you were in an unattractive person's shoes, I'm sure you would think differently about being lied to. Besides, it's not cool to think that people are constantly lying to you. It's like you don't approve of their opinions.
Have some confidence in yourself and start believing a little of what you hear. And when the next attractive guy flirt with you, have some fun and flirt back...or at least smile and have some eye contact.
Compliments are good :). | Frying vegetables...amateur cooking question? I'm pretty new to cooking and have a pretty basic question. I want to fry up a couple of sausages later and mix it with a onion, pepper, tomato, and a little hot sauce like I once had in a restaurant. My question is, how do i get the vegetables to come out with that very soft texture. I don't want them very crunchy...I want them very tender just like how grilled onions usually are made. How do I go about doing this? Should I cook them seperate from the sausage links? Lower/med/high cooking tempature? How long? | | Lots of fat make the vegetables soft, not cooking in water. Sausages take longer to cook than veg, and some veg take longer to cook than others eg carrots. Tomatoes will go mushy. | Drummers - care to voice your opinion on this amateur drummer? www.youtube.com/watch?v=n82Jw269glY
hey guys, i've been drumming self-taught for a couple years. see anything i need to fix? i know the timing is off in a few spots, i was very hot and tired from the heat that day so i wasn't all there but i've picked up a couple bad habits i'm sure.. point em' out for me please? i'm trying to be the best multi-instrumentalist i can be, so all opinions help, thanks so much! | | well I must say your double bass work is great. just take some drum lessons and you'll learn alot. Your ultramega OK for self-taught | Car won't start. Could it be fuel pump? I have a 2001 Chevy Cavalier. It's been a great car and have had very few problems with it. The other day i went to start the car and it wouldn't turn over. Some amateur car guys told me it was probably the fuel pump. I called a garage and had it towed. The person who towed it said they tried to start it up before towing and it wouldn't start. They towed it to the garage and tried to start it and it did. They kept it for three days and tried to start it a couple times each day. It started everytime? Is this just a miracle or could something else be wrong? It's not that the car was too hot because it had been just sitting there all night before i tried to start it. Any ideas? | I used to have a 89 honda civic. The fuel pump was actually under the rear seat, in the passenger compartment. On hot days, if I left the car in the sun, the passenger compartment would get hot as the dickens. In this heat, the fuel pump didn't work. I would have to open all the doors for a few minutes and let the passenger compartment air out. After 5 to 15 minutes, the car would start no problem.
I don't have a manual, but the best information I can find suggests that your Chevy's fuel pump is inside the tank. This means that heat is not going to be an issue. However, it also means it has a long way to push the gas to the engine. If you parked on a hill, the gas might not have been able to be pushed uphill from the tank to the engine.
However, your story doesn't seem to identify a fuel problem. You say that the engine wouldn't turn over, that isn't a gas problem. That's an electrical or starter problem. Because it started later, my guess is it is an electrical problem. I'd put a shiny quarter on it being your battery. Although new batteries should be able to withstand over 200 degrees F, if you still have your original battery it might not be adequate to handle high temperatures. You can test your battery using a $5 squeeze gauge called a hydometer.
If it isn't your battery, I wouldn't worry about it unless it happens again. And then, take notes: what's the weather (hot? moist?)?, does the starter click?, walk away for a minute and come back - turn the key but don't start the car, do you hear the click of the fuel pump (listen to this when your vehicle is working)? Are you on a hill? In the sun? Low on gas (if you're low on gas and on a hill ... that could have been your problem, too)?
Good luck! | What do you think of this writing? I guess I come across as desperate. Naive. But I'd like to know. Any criticism is welcomed. It's a 'work in progress' based on a dream I had (*groan*) a couple of nights ago. It is in no-way a serious attempt at writing. Well, it is, but this particular piece is just for fun. I don't know how to post it in 'document format' if you get what I mean, any tips on how to do so would be greatly appreciated. I'll post it the amateur way for now. If you like it, I'll keep writing and post soon.

The tears fall again. One, two, three, four. One after the other. A continuous stream of suppressed memories leaking out in the form of tears. The moon, partially obscured by clouds, throws a beam of light onto my face. It illuminates the glistening path left by long dried and freshly fallen tears.
I press my face into the pillow and shudder. My eyes are squeezed shut and I try to be still. If I were discovered weeping over ‘nothing’ a beating would surely straighten me out. I turn over and grip the bed sheet forcefully as wave after wave of emotions flows through me. They jumble inside me, forming a ragged hole tearing at my chest and encouraging the tears. Distressed though I am, I can still recognise some of the emotions coursing through me: fear, desolation, loneliness, anxiety. I open my mouth and scream noiselessly. There is no one I can tell. There is nothing I can do. I am all alone.
A light tapping at the window shakes me from my depressing realization. I start and throw the covers over myself. My breath becomes shallow, my body tense. Each beat of my heart thuds painfully against my chest as if in echo of the seconds passing by. I grow steadily hotter and more uncomfortable. Hair sticks to my face. Trembling, I slowly pull the covers away from my head. I peer around. Only darkness stares back at me. A few hot tears emerge from my eyes, the only indication to the chagrin I am feeling. Night is the only time I can truly reveal my feelings, at least crying alone is better than bottling it up inside. What would I do if this privacy was taken away?
Tapping resounds once again from the window and I turn my head towards it. Other emotions emerge from the hole, strangely unexpected. Curiosity…hope…and perhaps the strangest of all: relief. Relief that maybe whatever was outside would comfort me, hold me, tell me that I was going to be okay. The feeling of naivety did not cross me at all.
A silhouette stood in front of my window. It looked like a girl but the moon did not reveal anything more to me.

I only started writing it today so my real question is: is it considered good enough to keep writing? I would dearly love to purse a career in writing and teaching English. I feel like an uneducated amateur, which I am, so any websites or book recoomendations to help me get to grips with the publishing and writing world are heartily welcomed but please remember only UK oriented publishing/writings books please.
Thank you for your time.
