Talk

I found a Straight Talk phone and it said the carrier was Verizon. So does that mean a Straight Talk phone is a Verizon phone? Does it have the same benefits, etc.?
Is it a Verizon phone, though?

Straight Talk is one of TracFone’s newest brands and as of July 30, 2009 provides customers with two different value based 30-day rate plans. Straight Talk is an Mobile Virtual Network operator (MVNO) that uses Verizon’s CDMA 1XRTT wireless network which was introduced in 2001 and is said to deliver between 40 and 60 kbs (kilobits per second) to customers[7]. Straight Talk’s coverage is limited in certain areas (most of Kansas, Nebraska, Nevada, Mississippi and western Texas)[8] but provides good coverage in the major metro areas. Only seven phones are available for use with Straight Talk: The LG 100C,LG 200C,LG 220C,LG 290C,Samsung R451C,Motorola W385 and the Motorola RAZR V3a.

My friend, Renato, showed me that he can just burn .avi files straight to a DVD as a data disc (without converting them to another format) and watch them on his DVD player. There’s no menu like your average DVD, rather a directory tree. Yes, it appears on the TV screen after the data disc is inserted. It had just one folder and in that folder was a bunch of .avi files. He selected a file from the directory using the DVD’s remote and it played perfectly – even with subtitles (.srt files)! He told me his DVD player wasn’t anything special. So, my question, how can I do this? I tried burning a data disc using Nero StartSmart, but it wouldn’t play on my DVD player (Sony DVP-NS575P). Maybe it was because I put each show in a different directory folder (Bones, Heroes, House, Survivor). I don’t have any more blank DVD-Rs or DVD-RWs to burn, so I can’t experiment anymore. So do any of you have a solution? I searched already, but all the answers talk about downloading a program to convert the .avi’s to a format the standard DVD players could handle. I’m not looking for this. I’m looking for how my friend did it: just .avi files on a data disc DVD. That’s all. Thanks for your consideration! =o)

I think there are three things you need to do:
First: Check if your DVD player can play .avi format. You may see the instructions book of your player to check it.
Second: Check if the .avi file is divx format. As far as I known, most dvd players are only compatible with divx format.
Third: Put the .avi format to the root folder.

I heard this is the best foundation that MAC has to offer BUT….

A statement from one girl is this true:

Okay, I’m not trying to talk you out of buying a foundation you like, but I’ll admit that my experience with MAC has been FAR from enjoyable. I’ve always loved their Studio Fix powder. It covers everything, and always looks amazing. I’ve had moderate acne for years, and as I wore that powder, it got awful. I nearly got scars. I’m not sure about other MAC foundations, but do NOT buy the Studio Fix powder. It’s made for models and actresses and is not made to be worn for long periods of time. Your skin can’t breathe in it.
Good luck.

which foundation is next best to studio fix?

is it true studio fix is used for models, actresses and photos in general?

which studio fix is better liquid or foundation?

P.S I don’t wear foundation on a day to day basic i wear it for special occasion, once in a blue moon and on and off; say i’m going to school mon-fri i might wear it for 2 weeks straight then maybe for another 3 weeks i don’t. Sometimes i might just wear it 2 or 3 times in a month.

Please help

Not all MAC makeup is made for models, actresses, and photos in general. It’s true that a lot of it is used that way, because like the girl in your review said, it covers everything and always looks amazing.

In my opinion, if you have acne, you probably want to think twice about wearing most makeup products, because they aren’t formulated for skin that is that sensitive. I have acne, and I’ve worn Studio fix powder for almost a year, and I’ve never had any problems with it. I think it all depends on what type of acne, and the facial care regimen the person uses to remove their makeup. I use regular ol’ Cetaphil from the drugstore, and it works fine.

Studio fix fluid is better if you have dry, normal, or even combination skin. But you’ll want to make sure you have a translucent setting powder to keep excess oil under control. If you have oily skin, the powder foundation will probably work better. I apply it with a big fluffy powder brush (MAC 150) and blend with a kabuki. I set the powder foundation with Fix+ spray, to keep it from looking chalky.

I don’t think you’ll have problems with MAC foundations, especially if you don’t wear them very often. Just make sure you wash your face and make sure you completely remove all of your makeup before you go to bed, or else you’ll end up with breakouts. This applies to any foundation, not just MAC.

Hope this helps.

I bought this phone and want to know why there are no games and if it is possible to access games or download them and if so how and where do you do this? also is there a website or what ever you can go to that will turn this phone into a gps unit? thanks

Good question I want to play games on my phone too. the Samsung R451C

I watched an interview last night. It might have been a re-run and this question might be old now. But when there was the answer about him running his hand under the stall divider, saying that he was just reaching for a newspaper, along with him agreeing that he coincidentally did all of those "known moves for bathroom solicitation" in the gay world, it really made me wonder about him.

I’m a gay man that ‘came out’ 11 years ago, after being in a marriage for 10 years. I told my future ex-wife that I was gay on the second day we ever talked. Yet she didn’t really want to hear that or believe it and kept pursuing me until I married her. (And I must admit, it was convenient, given my job at the time). After we married we just didn’t talk about it anymore, and she was, after 5 years totally convinced that I had changed. I was always faithful to her, but never changed my sexual orientation one bit. So, it makes me wonder about Craig’s wife’s ability to see the truth. Thoughts?

I don’t believe Larry Craig coincidentally went through the whole ritual of obtaining gay sex in a bathroom. It’s funny how the pastors counseling Ted Haggard said that Haggard wasn’t the one performing the homosexual activities. If Ted Haggard wasn’t doing homosexual stuff, how come he didn’t get a female prostitute to fulfill his needs. It doesn’t matter what he does, if it’s sexual and with a man, it’s gay. Larry Craig has been lying to his wife for too long. The longer it takes for the truth to come out, the more pain it will cause his family; and it will come out. Many women had no clue when they found out their husband is gay.

Since Straight Talk phones run off Verizon, wouldn’t they get signal everywhere a Verizon phone would?

And does anyone have Straight Talk? What are your opinions about the service please?

Thank you

Yes I use this phone, and it has the exact coverage of Verizon

I read a article in cinescape.com that they are finally gonna do the Superman vs DOOMSDAY but its DVD only.

It didnt say if its going to be live or animated.

Does anyone wish they would still do this live action and in theatres?

When Superman Returns was first being talked about, the original plan was DOOMSDAY, but i heard it was canceled due to size of story.

But maybe they could do his death, and then in a sequel the return.

I’ve been anticipating a Doomsday movie forever. I was hoping after the criticism they gave to Superman Returns (people said it was boring and didn’t have enough action) that Bryan Singer would go completely opposite Returns and do The Death of Superman Storyline for the sequel.

Well, at least we’ll get the Doomsday story one way, hopefully not too far in the future they’ll also make a feature film.

To someone who you just beginning to know? Theres this guy who when I met I knew I felt different, then when we had our first talks I just became so crazy about him. Then it grew out of my control. I can’t stop thinking bout him. When I see him in school and he’d smile, I just become so happy and the rush I get is unbelievably strong. I love the way Im feeling around him although we hardly ever talk.

I know in some straight relationships, lust becomes the foundation of relationship then it grows into love. But can that also happen in a gay relationship? Is t possible to fall in love with someone you hardly know?

Yes – but don’t rush it because you’ll find someone else next month – at the latest !

Is McCain not "on message" with his own message? Does he know what his own message is? Read this article. Is there truth in it… or not?

It’s now the Double Talk Express
