I know that there are a lot of answered questions on here about the Samsung Rant and putting music on it, and I have gone in depth over all of them. You are supposed to plug in the USB, then drag and drop folders. only problem is that the microSD in the phone doesn't seem to have any preinstalled folders. It just comes up blank, when there should be DCIM, and a Music folder. I need some help before I have a stroke hereSamsung Rant MicroSD Card Troubles?
You need to format the card while it is in the phone. It should be under your memory options under settings.Samsung Rant MicroSD Card Troubles?
create the folders yourself
take a pic and the save it it creates folders too

Samsung Rant Help PLEASE!!?
okay so i have the samsung rant and i loved it at first back when i got it in december but now my tv is not working it keeps saying my memory limit isnt free but i tried deleting everything and it still doesnt work. then i put some music on my memory card and it wont load on there the music thing keeps saying error M508 and then my internet was working fine, now it wont turn on at all i go to the little icon then it takes like a minute then it goes black then it goes back to the home screen and it says refreshing sprint something i dont know. is there a way i can fix all of this? im only 15 and my dad is really cheap so he's not gonna buy me a new phone.Samsung Rant Help PLEASE!!?
something similar to this happened to my old phone (razr) but with myne i had no memory and the battery would only last around a day and it kept reseting so i called my service provider and they sent me a new phoneSamsung Rant Help PLEASE!!?
You should take it back to the Sprint store and have them take a look at it. I also have a rant, and I can't use the TV feature because I don't have enough memory... the solution is to buy a memory card but they cost like $40. Also, the store may have accidentally messed up your data plan because that sounds like what I went through with my phone the first few weeks I had it.
But, my mom has the same phone as I do and hers was acting strange like that, just randomly turning the screen black, and she had to have hers replaced because of a faulty wire that goes from the memory board thing to the screen. But they didn't charge her for it because it was the phone company's fault.free makeup laser cartridges

Samsung rant return help me change my phone?
Ok, i have a samsung rant and im tired of it. It does lag and freeze some which i think is good grounds for returning it to get a new instinct. The rant does have alot of problems like mine but most are more severe, but the sprint people dont know how bad my phone is messing up. So can anyone help me in what i should do or say to get them to let me get a different phone and return the rant. I will pay for the instinct but im not gonna pay the full amount, i will pay what it would be if i got a new contract or an upgrade.Samsung rant return help me change my phone?
if its within the first thirty days then you can exchange it. but if its not then they will just send you another of the same phone. that is, if its still in warranty. if its not within the first thirty days you will have to pay for the instinct out right. they will not replace the rant with the instict, because they are not of comparable quality,Samsung rant return help me change my phone?
Either way just try to be persuasive and don't raise your voice.
Just go up to them and be like, '; Sir or Mam, my phone has been giving me a lot of trouble, freezing its very slow. And the problem just keeps getting worse. Is their anyway i can change my phone
to a new one or a different phone and pay the difference?';
Just go up to a store and ask them. Or call CC
Did you get it in the last 30 days? If so you can do an exchange for a Instinct.
If you didn't do a firmware upgrade (which you can find in the menus), do that as well and it should help the problems with the lag.
Take clear fingernail polish and paint the metal contacts on the phone where the battery goes (do not paint the battery) if your phone is under warranty, they will replace it DO NOT USE YOUR PHONE BETWEEN WHEN YOU REPORT IT AND GET A NEW ONE!!!

A Rant and A Question??
Ok so today i went for my 18 weeks ultrasound and i was a little worried when the doctor took 25min, just on the heart, the whole ultrasound took about 1hr. I asked the tech, is everything ok and most times they will say everything looks good here but in my case he said ';you'll have to talk to the doc about your results'; The doc then tels me that the tech couldn't see the back of the babies brain, part of the heart, the ears and liver. I thought being this far along they would have a better idea of how my baby is growing. I am so worried now cause they said i need to go for another ultrasound in 2 weeks time. I'm more scared that something will be wrong with my baby(because of todays ultrasound) and i won't be able to handle it, emotionally.
He said he couldn't definately tell me the sex but if he had to guess based on what he saw on the screen it was a girl. I'm now finding it hard to be excited about the baby.
Have any of you gone through something like this?A Rant and A Question??
I honestly hope you don't take offense to my answer, and I hope with all my heart that everything turns out alright, but instead of reassuring you that everything will be alright (which no one can do right now), I'm just going to be honest. The truth is, the doc doesn't know what's going on. If he honestly knew that something was wrong, he would be legally obligated to tell you, or risk a malpractice lawsuit. There's a number of reasons why this could've happened, perhaps the baby wasn't positiioned well, maybe a faulty machine, or an incompetent technician (they are just techs, not doctors), or, at the very worst, maybe there is something seriously wrong. I'm sure when you go back in 2 weeks they'll definitely be able to give you more information. The more positive news is, though, usually if there is severe brain or spinal cord injuries or malformations, the fetus will generally be aborted during the first trimester by the body, and you're well past that stage. Also, with technology today, doctors can fix a lot of problems before the baby's born, if it's caught early enough, and it really sounds that that's what the doc is trying to do, catch a potential problem before it becomes worse. I'm sure that the next 2 weeks will be hell waiting, but just try to relax. I wish you the best.A Rant and A Question??
I would advise you to just try to relax for now. I know it's hard not to worry about it but the stress will just make you crazy. Often the baby won't cooperate and get in a good position, 18 weeks is a little early to be doing this ultrasound anyways. At my hospital the standard policy is to wait until at least 20 weeks. At this time it is much easier to see everything they need to see. I know when I went in to have the ultrasound done at 20 weeks with my son it took over an hour and a half to get all of the pictures they needed. He was being stubborn and would not roll over! The technician jiggled my belly, had me in various positions and tilted the bed every which way!
That being said, try to reserve your anxieties until you know something definite. And remember, in the off chance that there is something wrong- today's medical technology allows us to fix, cure, treat or control so many conditions and it may just be something very minor. I wish you all the best luck and congratulations on your baby!
It could just be that the positioning of the baby was bad.
First, that tech was very insensitive....not a good quality in a doctor's office. If ultrasounds worked the first try every time, they wouldn't rub the scope all over the tummy looking for a good shot. I honestly believe that everything's fine...just wrong day, wrong time.
But, just to put your mind at ease, call a DIFFERENT doctor, and ask if it's possible to NOT get a clear pic @ 18weeks on an ultrasound. Depending on their reply, you know if your doc (and assistants) are doing their job.
I don't know.... sounds like the baby may have just been positioned badly.
At 18 weeks they're supposed to be able to see pretty clearly. I mean, he told you it's a girl... that's being able to see pretty clearly, boys are usually easier to tell.
Are they using older sonogram equipment?
Did you ask your doctor what the deal was?
They are supposed to tell you if something is wrong. If they let you go and didn't tell you somethings wrong then it's probably okay....
Just breathe easy until your next sonogram. It will be a horrible 2 weeks just waiting like this, but you'll be 20 weeks and surely by then they can tell you what's going on.
And if you didn't ask the doc, then call up there and ask. It's your right to know as a patient.
Good luck with this. I hope everything turns out well.
There could be a number of reasons why they couldn't see those things. Try not to stress too much. I know it's got to be hard, but just pray and trust that everything will work out. When you go to your next ultrasound, ask a lot of questions. I'm sure they'll probably be sending you to a specialist. Technology has advanced a lot over the years so even if there is some sort of defect, there is a VERY good chance that everything will be fine with your baby. At this point, there is no reason to give up hope, so keeping thinking the best.
I don't know what to tell you but I hope everything is alright with the baby. Try not to worry too much.
I wish you the best!
It could very well be that your baby was not in a good position to see everything. At this point there is nothing you can do but wait. I know it's hard, but try to get your mind off of everything. My thoughts will be with you.
Just pray and dont worry so much.....it is normal for them to say things like that due to all of the law suits out there for malpractice. Doc's don't make as much money as people think they do now a day.
Take a deep breath the doctor would had already talked to you if their was a problem that needed to concern you with. Make another appointment and talk to him if you are really worried. But not being able to see those parts and the child not being dead are unlikely. There would be no child. I'm sure you are fine so take a deep breath. Thank God for you blessing and rub your tummy and tell your little girl that you are looking forward to seeing her. Then find another doctor to finish your pregnancy.
Ugh..this is one of the curses of ultrasound. Hopefully everything will turn out ok. One of my friends was told her baby's measurements were off (head was way too small) and her triple screen for down's syndrome came back positive. She had to wait and wait for an amnio and it came back negative, meaning her baby was ok. Her child is perfectly healthy now.
Baby probably was just in a bad position. When I had an ultrasound with my first baby the doctor told me that something may be developing wrong with the heart and they did another ultrasound and everything was okay. She is now 3 1/2 and no problems.
Try not to worry too much. Similar thing happen to me. I was 19 weeks when they did the ultrasound and the baby was in a position where they were unable to see and check her lower spine. They re-scheduled the ultrasound for two weeks later and thank God everything was normal. Some times babies cooperate, other times they don't :).
You can hope and pray that the baby was in a position that blocked those areas.
They would not have looked for them and forewarned you if the areas would not be developed at your current gestation.
He said he couldn't definately tell me the sex but if he had to guess based on what he saw on the screen it was a girl. I'm now finding it hard to be excited about the baby.

Samsung Rant Sucks!!!?
Or is it just me???
I just replaced my Rumor because it was upgrade time, and I really love the slide out QWERTY board, so the Rant it was. Its only 2 weeks in and I can't believe the things that are wrong with this phone.
First, why the heck can't you personalize text ringers for each person this I find really dumb for today's technology!
Second, where the heck is the OUTBOX for messaging? And, NO it is not under the messaging history (convo). It doesn't show up there. If I am out of range of service and try to send a message it says ';Saving to Outbox';, well hellllllllllo?? Where the heck is it!?
Third, the dang thing freezes up and you can't do anything or even use your slider to turn on the main screen. What a pain in the butt.
Fourth, 3rd party ring tones are a bit tricky, ok, I admit no a huge deal but irritating in itself.
Fifth, I don't like how when you go to answer a text the slightest movement of your hand/finger it calls the person!
Frustrating. I'm sure I'm forgetting something here!
So....is the Rumor 2 any better than the Rant or even the Rumor 1?
I've heard two stories, does the Rumor 2 in deed have a video recorder? And if it does, can you send video via messaging?
Ok, I am done ranting (no pun intended) Just wondering if anyone else is having these issues or if anyone knows how to sidestep these issues?
Thanks!Samsung Rant Sucks!!!?
haha. i kno exactly wht yu mean!!! i have had mines since the day it came out. but once yu get the control of the phone, its not the irritating. yes, it was irritating at first but once i found ways to control the thing, it wont freeze up, wont call anyone by an accident, nor a prbl, wit the outbox. (come on now, yu can wait till yu get signal).
nd the rumor 2, it upgraded to four rows on the qwerty keyboard. but personally, i like the rant's better bcauz it is jst like those on the computer.) nd wit the rumor 2, yu still cannot have a distinctive ringer for each contact for txt messaging. nd the camera is 1.3 megapixels. in this comparison, the rant wins wit 2 megapixels. nd yes, they removed the camcorder from the rumor 2.

nd this website says:
Conclusion:
The Rumor 2 brings some nice upgrades to the original and wraps it up in a more modern package. Still, it鈥檚 basically the same as its predecessor and so is fairly disappointing. The Rant may have found some inspiration in the Rumor, but it pretty much trumped the device in every way. The Rumor 2 fails to trump the Rant in anything, so we have to ask: at the same price point, especially with the Rumor鈥檚 shoddy quality issues, why would anyone choose the LG over the Samsung? Seriously, if you know leave a comment, because we can鈥檛 think of a single reason.
hope this helps yu in choosing wht phone. how about some HTC phones? they have slide out keyboard too.Samsung Rant Sucks!!!?

Job rant!!! ( i cant get one!!) anyone in the same situation?
hi, this is a little rant over not being able to find a job and if anyone is in the same situation... i have applied to sooo many over the past month and have only had a whole 2 interviews. The biggest annoying thing is the online application forms, it takes about an hour to fill them in and in about 2 hours i get an email back saying ';sorry you are not what we are looking for'; (well how would you know when your questions are pointless!!)
is anyone else struggling to find a job and getting annoyed with these! because i am!!
i loved to hear your stories as im losing the will to live filling out these applications!!
JodieJob rant!!! ( i cant get one!!) anyone in the same situation?
there are 15 million other unemployed people out there - I have suffered job losses thru several recessions in teh past 30 yrs - this is the first one I have survived - sign up for temp work if it is available in your desired field and look for an evening/weekend part time jobJob rant!!! ( i cant get one!!) anyone in the same situation?
Bitter truth - If you are getting the rejection within couple of hours of applying then you are not doing a great job of matching your skill set to the desired skills.
I had to apply for close to two hundred jobs, most of these resulted in rejections, but these rejections came after some time. Sometimes I was lucky to get to the 3rd or even 4th stage of the process, then got rejected. I learned from these rejections and found areas to improve and worked on them.
I have recently accepted best out of three offered graduate jobs.
It might sound patronising but the job market is not all that gloomy, one just needs to adjust accordingly.
Good Luck!
You should use your own initiative and look in Yellow Pages or your local paper for the types of companies who you would like to work for and then write to them. They may not be taking people on at the moment, but a nice letter to the Personnel Department or General Manager enclosing a CV describing your work experience and what you are looking for is more likely to elicit a reply than spending hours filling in forms online. Remember, if you are a company looking to replace someone who has left, then the job description is going to be what that particular person did. Nobody does the same job the same way so it's quite possible that you will do it better than your predecessor. You will do it differently anyway. Writing direct, in your own words rather than just filling in the blanks on a standard form is going to get you at least read. You may not get a job from it, but it's likely they'll keep you on file for the future as you will have shown them that you aren't just one of the 'herd' and will show a bit of character.
Yes! It's hard to put up with these employers sometimes. I've been looking since the end of March.
Had a phone interview Monday with a HR person. We went line by line down what the qualifications where for the job. I met or exceed every item listed for the job qualifications. I'm 100% qualified. So she said, ';I'll send you paperwork over to the hiring manager';. Wednesday I get a email from HR stating that they are looking for someone more closely meeting their job qualifications and will not be interviewing me. I'm thinking WHAT! How can you get any closer? Most likely it was a job for an internal hire that they posted to stay legal. You'll find that about 80% of jobs posted on these internet sights are for internal hires and they never intended to hire from the outside.
Yep. The economy sucks. Nobody is hiring. The competition is fierce...a ton of people are out of work.
And I hate filling out a friggin' job application...most of them are ridiculously useless.
The questions they are asking are obviously not pointless as it weeds out the people who don't meet their expectations.
There is a technique to filling in application forms which means reading the questions and understanding what they want.
Only give information asked for don't add anything of your own and grammar is very important.
I found when I was looking for a job my local Jobcentre were great at offering advice regarding this sort of thing.
Good luck with the job search.
i'm with you. i went down to job and family services and asked about this one job and they told me, for that job their looking for migrants. they can't do that, can they?! i worked at the same job for 10 years, so i have no experience with anything. i was forced to quit because i wouldn't put out. no proof so i can't get anywhere with it. our mcdonalds isn't even hiring. your not the only one. alot of people are hurting for employment (money). it would be nice if something would turn around. SOON
I am in a horrible area where the spvsr and co worker chat all day and I mean that- but I do have a job...good luck- hope you find something soon.
Try getting your CV and Covering Letter professionally done so that your key skills stand out.
Try taking a low paid job for this moment in time. You would be surprised how more employable you seem to employers when you have demonstrated that you have been able to a get a temporary job in this economic climate.
If you have a degree that make this stand out on your CV. Your Covering Letter also helps to show employers why your the best for the job, so if you have excellent computing skills then state that.
Tell them what your strengths are, what you are good out, what sets you apart from others and in your CV highlight your responsibilties and duties.
Hi, been out of work since March 5th, 25 years experienced executive assistant and no job yet! I have sent in literally 1000's of resumes, have received about 3 phone calls for interviews, Great, they are only paying $10.00/hour. This is so frustrating, how do these companies think people, especially single people are suppose to live on less than $400 a week! So after much turmoil, I bit the bullet and went back to school for my associates degree in Health Care. I figured that there will always be sick people in the world!
Good luck, try to keep positive!
I have been unemployed for about a year now, and find the same frustrations you do with the job search. Most of the applications I send in I never hear anything back from, at least they could do us the courtesy of sending rejection emails/letters/etc. with specific reasons why we are not being considered!! I even had one job interview that went well and everyone I spoke with at the company told me I would be a ';great fit'; for the position, and I never heard back from the company! I have applied for things in my industry, and anything I have ';transferable skills'; for. I have applied for things I am qualified, under-qualified, and over-qualified for. Still no real luck. I have had to take a couple part-time jobs for some income, but even those are difficult to find (and I am still looking for an early morning part-time job with no luck). The worst part are the staffing services who seem to have control over almost all of the posted positions online, and who take a big fee for using their placement services (either from the companies or directly from the workers), plus everyone I have talked with who has used one of those agencies has had a negative experience.free makeup laser cartridges
is anyone else struggling to find a job and getting annoyed with these! because i am!!
i loved to hear your stories as im losing the will to live filling out these applications!!
JodieJob rant!!! ( i cant get one!!) anyone in the same situation?
there are 15 million other unemployed people out there - I have suffered job losses thru several recessions in teh past 30 yrs - this is the first one I have survived - sign up for temp work if it is available in your desired field and look for an evening/weekend part time jobJob rant!!! ( i cant get one!!) anyone in the same situation?
Bitter truth - If you are getting the rejection within couple of hours of applying then you are not doing a great job of matching your skill set to the desired skills.
I had to apply for close to two hundred jobs, most of these resulted in rejections, but these rejections came after some time. Sometimes I was lucky to get to the 3rd or even 4th stage of the process, then got rejected. I learned from these rejections and found areas to improve and worked on them.
I have recently accepted best out of three offered graduate jobs.
It might sound patronising but the job market is not all that gloomy, one just needs to adjust accordingly.
Good Luck!

Twilight rant!! come on ppl!?
Dont get me wrong, LOVED twilight, but the problems(details about the movie that have been bugging me) are these:
1. they refer to rosalie as rosalie cullen and NOT hale.....but in the book its Rosalie Hale.
2. they don't talk about jaspers freaking power! that sucks!
3.The directer sucked! (yet she was awsome directing the movie Thirteen which is ironic that it stars nikki reed and has vanesa hudgens in it and was directed by cathrine hardewick and twilight was directed by her and co-stared nikki reed and vanessa hudgens auditioned for new moon...)
4.they couldn't have gotten better cool afects? I mean come on!!!!!!!!!
Sorry i just needed to get that out of my chest.Twilight rant!! come on ppl!?
when i watched the moved i hadn't read the books yet so i probably wouldn't have agreed cause it was a good movie but having read the books i see what u mean about the minor details .....my boyfriend hasn't read it and knows it has if he has cause im always complaining about that stuff ...like its not like that in the book and, he didn't say it that way i guess well just never be happy ..........its to difficult to put everything from the book into a movieTwilight rant!! come on ppl!?
They made a book which I tolerated. Then they took it too far and made a movie. After that people upsessed over the book which they haden't even heard of till the hot actor played the main character. I have as much hatered for this book and movie as I do MTV and VH1. The two worst things ever bad music and reality tv just met their match.

1. they refer to rosalie as rosalie cullen and NOT hale.....but in the book its Rosalie Hale.
2. they don't talk about jaspers freaking power! that sucks!
3.The directer sucked! (yet she was awsome directing the movie Thirteen which is ironic that it stars nikki reed and has vanesa hudgens in it and was directed by cathrine hardewick and twilight was directed by her and co-stared nikki reed and vanessa hudgens auditioned for new moon...)
4.they couldn't have gotten better cool afects? I mean come on!!!!!!!!!
Sorry i just needed to get that out of my chest.Twilight rant!! come on ppl!?
when i watched the moved i hadn't read the books yet so i probably wouldn't have agreed cause it was a good movie but having read the books i see what u mean about the minor details .....my boyfriend hasn't read it and knows it has if he has cause im always complaining about that stuff ...like its not like that in the book and, he didn't say it that way i guess well just never be happy ..........its to difficult to put everything from the book into a movieTwilight rant!! come on ppl!?
They made a book which I tolerated. Then they took it too far and made a movie. After that people upsessed over the book which they haden't even heard of till the hot actor played the main character. I have as much hatered for this book and movie as I do MTV and VH1. The two worst things ever bad music and reality tv just met their match.
you are just some stupid fan girll..
COME ON!
ITS A MOVIE BASED ON A BOOK!.. NOT A BOOK MOVIE... I DOUBT THAT THERE IS A BOOK MOVIE OUT THERE!
ALSO.. ABOUT VANESSA. IT WAS A RUMOR!
GO GET A FREAKEN LIFE!
Yeah, i know i loved the books too, but the movie was kind of a let down.
who the hell cares, twilight is gay.

Fghgkdh Rant, wanna listen?
I feel so like bi polar lately. Its August and school is like 4 weeks away * for me at least*
Part of me is like so pumped to go back and see all my friend because I haven't been able to see any one from my school over the summer. I live like 40 minutes away from my school so that means I live like 40 away from them all.
Thenn I'm like nervous to go back. I don't want to deal with any of the homework, teachers or drama, my school is FULL of drama its crazy. And i kinda am nervous ill be like out of the loop.
Whenever I hang with my friends well I mean whenever anyone hangs with there friend they just feel like happy and relaxed. I know they all have hung out all summer and taken pics, gone to parties and done all this crazy stuff that like I wish i could have been part of but I wasn't. I got invited to all of it but couldn't make it. I just hope like when I go back they wont be like ohh... hi uh whats up? Like idk there not like at but I'm worried they all have grown closer without me. Its my junior year and I just wanna hang and chill and not have to deal with like having to possibly make new friends or something
Is it odd to feel like this?Fghgkdh Rant, wanna listen?
I'm pretty much in the same position. but for a guy. like i haven't talked to many of my friends over the summer. and I'm not worried. i know people are nice. if you go up to your friends and talk they won't make it awkward. but i always try to blend in the first couple of weeks.
so I'd just try to keep conversations going, be nice, ask questions about summer, and try to get along with everybody.
and also, you have a month before school starts. trying to get in contact with your friends wouldn't be a bad idea. it might make it easier when school starts. so you can at least blend in with a crowd.
also, you wont be an outcast, even if it feels like it. it always feels a million times worse than what other people notice.Fghgkdh Rant, wanna listen?

Btw, I don't see how you could possibly be ';feeling bi polar';. It's called mixed feelings.

Love rant, does anyone agree?
ok so i see these crappy reality shows where people supposedly go on them to find ';love'; but then after the show is done they don't even like each other at all. first of all it makes me made people think they could even possibly find love that way and also what has the world come to? what ever happened to good old fashioned casually meeting each other and going out on dates and eventually finding love in it? it's like the idea of true love is being destroyed with people going around and dating 25 people within a year and having sex with them all.
does any agree with me or am i crazy???Love rant, does anyone agree?
Not all people are like that... but it has been more and more about the body then the personality.

Political Rant not really a ? but feel free to comment?
I've been answering political questions all morning and this is just a rant.
Ok so 48% of the voting population didn't vote for Obama. Yet, when anyone disagrees with the Democrats about anything they are demeaned or called names like stupid Bible humpers, even though there are legitimate complaints about the current administration and legislation that has been passed. ex: the stimulus package- Fox interviewed Congressmen who admitted to not reading the bill. Its not like I blame them entirely, the thing was a couple thousand pages long. And the White House rammed it down their throats.
But really become politically informed before you start demeaning people, have common courtesy. If you are just insulting people you look like you have no idea what you're talking about and you can't hold an intelligent conversation with someone with an opposing view point.
It goes for conservatives too. You just make your own side look bad when you can't talk about issues.
I actually gained much more respect for Obama when O'Reilly interviewed him. I feel like he is one of the few people who was asking questions that lay people what to know, and in turn Obama gave him very straightforward answers. None of this celebrity BS, where nobody is serious. I thought it was conducted better than the debates, no floozy Q%26amp;As.
sighPolitical Rant not really a ? but feel free to comment?
Those with only a limited capacity for understanding complex thought will almost always revert to assaulting an opponent verbally.
In debate and logic it's called an ';ad hominen'; to dissuade from an opinion by abusing the character of its holder rather than to convince by means of reason or intellect.
In short, those who lack intellectual capacity have no other weapon than slander.Political Rant not really a ? but feel free to comment?
to each his own opinion.
This is the reality- that people are entitled to their own opinion.
What you seem to want to accomplish by complaining is mess around with what people SHOULD MULL AROUND IN THEIR HEADS.
so go ahead and bow to your messiah. and leave the rest of the other citizens alone.
Shoo.
We are all entitled to our opinions, but yes, I prefer educated opinions too.

Samsung rant, using ventones for ringtone, it won't work!?
I followed the steps, don't tell me the steps, because I did it. I converted it into the right form, I put it into my memory card, it's in the ';100SSMED'; thing, every time I assigned it as my ringtone (I go to ';my videos'; then select that), when I tested it to see if it worked by calling it, it went back to the ringtone that came with the phone.
it won't stay.
I don't know why.
I've tried everything.
please help :[Samsung rant, using ventones for ringtone, it won't work!?
try re-downloading it and not changing the file name after you put it in your computer.When it downloads its usually something like ';PgU1VzpZ'; and from what i've seen changing the name causes problems. put it in the ';100SSMED'; thing like normal and it should work. i tested changing the name vs not changing it and the one that worked was the one that didn't have the name change.Samsung rant, using ventones for ringtone, it won't work!?

works for me, i also have a rant,
i actually just made one , and it works fine.
i have made about 10 in the last month or so,
make sure its the right 3g2 format and make sure you can play the ringtone and at least listen to it in your pc with windows media player.

A rant for unforgiven?
Well first off I was not able to see most of unforgiven...with sound anyway. All the streams were pretty much shut down. I'll hopefully be able to catch on youtube tonight. Anyhoo...
I can't say I liked this PPV. At all. I'm not the typical fan who hates everything the WWE does...I usually try to defend them...but there seems to be so many....mistakes here.
First off. CM Punk. The World Heavyweight Champion. Even though he's being billed as a paper champion with fluke wins, or just getting by wins...After a backstage assault almost any other champion would've still fought. You think if John Cena was assaulted, WWE would've billed him not even to fight?
On that same note after a 5 minutes backstage assault CM Punk is unable to fight...yet Chris Jericho a man who got beaten to the point of unconsciousness by HBK is able to? Bad bad Booking.
Cryme Tyme. WTF? It seems this rivalry is going to switch to Morrison and the Miz full time imo. Which is a shame because I don't see Cody Rhodes and Diabasi as great champs. Cryme Tyme has a long overdue push, and they failed their first attempt. After stealing the titles, and the thugs getting mugged back for them, it seemed like a perfect time to ';earn them';.
The scrambles themselves. I actually liked the concept. There were a few things that could've been better, like the whole 5 minute entering intervals...giving the last entrant only 5 minutes to win. HHH retains which is a shame. Even as the face of the company, I feel all the title's should've changed hands. Had let's say...Jeff Hardy won, this could've set up a rivalry with anyone.
Big Show turning heel. He definitly needed a push. No storyline, and just decimating his opponents whenever he came in. Even though technically he never had a face turn (He came in as a heel last year...but noone liked Mayweather...but some people will say when Mayweather won by cheating The Show turned face. I disagree), I would've liked Show to have a Main event push as a face. And for those of you saying that he's better as a heel? Well so is HHH...
Did I like the PPV at all? Well...I do like unpredictable things, and I do like Y2J being champion..just not the way he obtained it. Hopefully this puts HBK in the picture for the strap as he deserves it at LEAST one more time before he ends his lustrious career. I also like Matt Hardy winning the ECW champion.A rant for unforgiven?
This PPV was a flop, basically.
I was hoping they were using the CM Punk's ';assault'; as a way to bring back Randy Orton, and although I'm not too pleased about them putting Y2J in his place, it did surprise me, which WWE doesn't do much anymore. Honestly, the RAW scramble was the most enjoyable for me.
I was glad that Triple H retained only for the fact that it meant Jeff Hardy didn't, I have nothing against the Hardy's, but I'm getting sick of them as I see way too much of them both lately, two Hardy's with two titles would have been too much for me.
Crime time VS DiBiase and Rhodes had a REALLY bad ending, I couldn't think of a more stupid way to end it, who wins by accidentally knocking over someone else's pin attempt? This was the only other match I wanted to see, and it wasn't worth it.
Y2J vs. HBK wasn't as good as I thought it could be either, for that matter.
I was hoping there would be some undertaker action, but even that was disappointing. Overall it wasn't BAD, just not as good as it could have been.
And I hated the way the commentators kept saying how ';unpredictable'; the scramble matches were, they were pretty predictable, if you ask me.A rant for unforgiven?
worst ppv so far! it was a big upset! for jerico to win the WHC! and for big show and vickie to be .GULP. together.......they are going to lose rateings big time
well now maybe with y2j winning the whc, wouldnt it be flippin sweet for hbk to contend for the title, and just make there rivalry that much better
You got some valid points and for the most part I agree with you.
I agree it is a great idea,the scramble.I am a big HHH fan so I was glad to see him retain.Big night for Matt I give him all the respect in the world.Punk,I'm not sure what happened there,the guy seemed to be a pretty good champ.The crowd has pletny of pop when he comes out.I can't stand Jericho,and I too hope HBK gets another crack at him for the strap.I really wonder though if Y2J and Orton will continue their long fued over the title on Orton's return.Well stay tuned to see
i agree with the bit about cm punk and jericho, but jericho is a GREAT world champion and he deserves a title reign more than anyone.
cryme tyme should be champions and im glad that the wwe is taking matt and jeff as serious world champions
big show turning heel on the undertaker was good because now wwe has a good top heel on smackdown and its a good excuse to turn edge face, maybe back to the old cool dude gimmick he had with christian and maybe edge and taker could team up against la familia and big show.
I agree ... I think the scrambles would of been awesome IF they had been planned a little better.
I mean even the wrestlers seemed confused towards the end, And I know in that WWE title scramble match, Everyone except HHH had to stay back from getting any pins so he could walk out champ but when HHH pinned MVP ... They obviously haden't even worked that out because at the time that the pin was made Jeff was champ yet he went for the pin on someone else when he was champ anyway.
What was the point ? All the wrestlers just seemed confused out there at the endings of the matches and didn't know what to do.
I do think that Jeff Hardy should of walked out champ but I think his time might come at No Mercy.
The big show/Taker thing - Could it of been more slow ?
I mean it seemed like it took forever for that little thing to end.
I like Taker don't get me wrong but that whole thing just seemed so boring.
The world championship match - Again it would of been good apart from the end - I mean Jericho gets the pin and wins and the rest of the guys just give up with 7 seconds left.
I know there wasn't meant to be any other winner but people watching should NEVER be able to sit there and think 'He could of done this or done that' It's meant to be looking good so people at home think 'That was actually a good win or he stole it and no one could do anything about it' But the thing is with this match, People at home coulden't say that because 7 seconds left - The clock stopped - Batista could of Batista bombed jericho before the time resumed and then when the clock began Batista pins Jericho. It seemed so simple and I think their timing was off a lot in those scramble matches.

Vent/Rant My life is down the drain !?
My sitituation, help please:
The bouts of depression, anxiety, and just overwhelming feelings ... how long do I have to deal with this ? I'm young, still a teenager, and Idk what to do . I started over obsessively worrying when I was about six, my dad was an alcoholic (he's recovered now and great) and he and my mom used to argue every day (not physically but emotional abuse) and I would worry so much about it that an hour before school let out I'd be shaking and sick. If I was staying at a friends house I'd call like twice an hour to make sure they werent fighting too much. My dad has paranoia skitzophrenia (misspelled), manic depression, and bi-polar disorder, he attempted suicide when I was 9 after he lost his job, which is when he stopped drinking. My uncle also killed himself when I was 7, he too was an alcoholic. When I was 13 I began a one year relationship with a sexually, emotionally abusive bf. I left school bc I get super nervous around people, in certain sitiuations, I've had depression symptoms since 7th grade. Ever since I was little I've gotten this awful pictures in my mind and had to perform rituals to make them go away-which i still do.

I live in a highstress sitituation with alot of people in and out. I dont even feel home.

I know what its like. Its hard. Life can be tough, and I mean that, but God is still there. God will never leave you. Bad memories and habits and sadness and troubles can hold you back from things in life. They can cause you to become different, but don't let them hold you back from Jesus. I made that video (the link). And I think it might help a little bit. I hope that things get better for you. Im praying for you. Just please take the time to watch it. Its short.Vent/Rant My life is down the drain !?
Just take one step at a time...i'm sure everything will get better. And even though your mom feels guilty for letting you get help...tell her that you really need it. And that its not her fault at all! Good Luck!

Mini Rant: Is anyone else dealing with judgmental relatives or friends during your pregnancy?
I just ignore any negative or unsolicited comments most of the time, but if I said they didn't get under my skin I'd be lying. I just don't want them to think they've gotten the best of me, so I try to avoid giving a reaction and I'm usually successful at doing so.
My mom is happy about the pregnancy but one of the first things she said when I mentioned a name I liked was, ';You're worrying about names? What about religion?'; My husband and I have different beliefs. I attend a non-denominational church and he was raised as a Jehovah's Witness. My mom rarely goes to church, but always wants to stick her nose in any chance she gets.
Three of my aunts - two live here and one lives in another state. They also claim to be extremely religious. Two of these three aunts are gossip queens. If they can't get all the details to your business, they will make up their own scenario and run with that. My cousin's girlfriend is pregnant and they live in another state. She is a couple of months ahead of me, yet I am always been questioned and compared. ';Are you showing yet?'; ';Do you know what you're having yet?';
My cousin is 40 and has been unemployed all his life. He is not really involved with his girlfriend's pregnancy. Yet they want to poke fun at my husband who refuses to miss any of my prenatal appointments. They make sarcastic comments that give me the impression that they think he's too involved. That they don't understand why he's running to every appointment. He's a country boy with good values. I feel they think because he's quiet and laid back he doesn't know anything and that he's slow. That's another story though.
Also, they asked what hospital am delivering at. I plan to deliver at the only hospital my doctor is authorized to deliver at. It's about 15 minutes away. It's a smaller hospital that has recently been remodeled. I just found out they have completely remodeled the Labor %26amp; Delivery unit. I had surgery there 5 years ago and have been there for other emergencies. I have always been satisified with their service. My aunt said, ';Why are you delivering at that old hospital?'; I doubt she's ever stepped foot in there, but she's going by how it used to 20-30 years ago.
One of my aunts said God told her I was having a boy when I was about 8 weeks along. This has really annoyed me. She's went on to tell my other two aunts who are extremely religious, and because she prophesized it, it's true ... in their eyes. Then she went on to tell my mom and others that I got mad because she told me I was having a boy (although I want a girl). I got upset because she always says God told her something regarding others. I totally believe in the power of God, but I don't like people using him as an excuse to glorify themselves.
Everytime my aunts see me, they are checking me out to see if I look as pregnant and I should look. How many times do I have to tell them how far along I am? They have all had kids and should know when you can find out the gender.
My co-worker, who is very negative, is always making sarcastic comments because I am doing exactly as my doctor instructed (no cold lunchmeats, no relaxers, etc.). She found out I purchased the crib a couple of weeks ago (she was being nosy and saw it laying in the back of my SUV). She called me at my desk and asked if I'd purchased one. I told her yes. Then she went on to ask how far along I was, and responded in shock, in other words, you're not far enough along to be purchasing that yet.
I am 17 weeks + 5 days.Mini Rant: Is anyone else dealing with judgmental relatives or friends during your pregnancy?
wooow. I dont have quite that problem, my family and friends are understanding I am lucky... My husband and I have different religions too, its caused a few issues but we finally decided she'd be baptised and in my case- a pagan blessing as well. But its no one elses business but yours and husbands.
My best friend has a 2 month old son so I do feel like at times Im being compared to her.
My other friend got on my case before I got married and move to another state, oh my she had no right telling me I was jumping into things this and that when I knew what was best for my unborn child and only me!
but other than that, everyone respects my husband and I ...they dont intrude too much other than buying a bunch of clothes and all. Religion is hard and will be hard- my MIL is okay with it, my grandma supports it... but most of my husbands family are strict church go-ers. My FIL asks me to go with them and I always decline....
I just want to enjoy my daughter when she gets here, everything else is trivial right now.
Oh and Edit- My husband is a country boy too and very old fashioned- Yes sir, No thank you- all that. Hes been at every appt since day 1. Theres so many men out there that dont even care! I say we're damn lucky to have the husbands that we have and everyone else must be jealous.Mini Rant: Is anyone else dealing with judgmental relatives or friends during your pregnancy?
I completely sympathize on the religion aspect of your problem. My mother is devoutly Christian, whereas my husband and I are decidedly athiest. When I concieved my first child all she talked about what how much my views would change after I had a baby because there was no way a miracle of that magnitude could not be of God, and I would 'return to the fold'. I also had a bit of a row with her over wanting to take our daughter to church with her. I finally compromised with her and agreed to let her take our daughter UNTIL she was old enough to be influenced by what was being taught. My husband and I are firm believers in letting our children choose their own religious/spiritual paths when they are old enough to investigate. I'm still an athiest, and pregnant with our second baby and my mother cannot stand it. She respects me enough to let me raise my child how I feel I must, but I still get little comments from her now and then. We've agreed to disagree on most aspects of life. Now as for your family, I suggest you let them all know they need to take a big step backwards or you're going to start busting some heads. This is your child, your life, these are your decisions and you do not need the added aggravation of everyone being rude and plain crazy. I know its hard, but if they truly love you they need to respect you.
OO Dear, How it takes me back. Been there done that!
I come from a Gossip family too, I think we all do.
Here is what happened to be.
I got married August 2008 when I was 21 and my husband was 23. (This was after 3 years of dating mind you). A big problem in my family family was the religion/ culture thing. My husband is an only child and was born in and raised in Russia by his Single mother who was Agnostic/ Sometimes Spirtual.
I was raised here in the USA by a Non-Denoinational christan family..My Dads whole family was Roman Cathloic but my mom refused to raise her babies Cathloic...My parents had a hard time getting past the religious thing. My husband is a Christian but was not raised in the church like I was.
Anyways...6 months after being married, I found out I was pregnant. My husband and I were thrilled to high ends..My parents were upset!!
Here I was 22 and only married 6 months and when my parents found out that we were pregnant then went on and on how about ';Irrsponsible'; we were when it came to Bc and how we should not let our emotions get in the way.
I am now 8 months pregnant and had to listen to soo much crap over the last 8 months...Believe me the closer you get to the Due date, the worse It gets...My Grandmother insisted that I was having a boy (That she just knew because she had 2 boys) and that because I was gaining weight in the butt I was also having a boy...I had my ultrasound and it said ';GIRL'; and she didn't even bat and eye she said ';O that's nothing, it's just a guess'; (However the vagina was clear as day) She still insist on Mother Mary that I am having a boy.
Everyone from my Aunt,next door neighbor to mother..All have something to say about Natural delivery and being a ';Real women'; to breast feeding, to You name..They all have something to say!
O..ONE PIECE OF ADVICE!!!! DON';T DON';T DON';T Share the name with them!!! You will pay for it dearly!!!
My Husband and I made the Mistake of telling everyone that we were naming our daughter Sophia and for the last 4 months we had to listen to ';A Sophie means Fat Polluck Women in Italian'; '; Sophia sounds like a hooker name'; etc etc etc. The less they know and the less you tell them..The BETTER!
One more thing, Screen your calls, Lock your doors and learn to say ';SHOVE IT! and mind your Own **%26amp;*%26amp;*%26amp;*%26amp; Buiness!
At what point are you going to learn that you have to stop sharing ANY personal information with these people? They don't love you. They just want to dish dirt. Your mother, on the other hand, is an interested party as grandmas are often involved in the daily lives of their adult children. Just answer her questions as best you can and when she gets on your nerves, just tell her that you have answered that question and do not want to hear about it again.
I agree with your coworker, however. Buying a crib at 17 weeks is overkill. They are only returnable for maybe a 90 day period, so you'd better set it up now and make sure it is complete.
I call that a mega-rant. LOL But seriously hun, you need to just forget about them...all of them, even your family members who are being negative. You're also hormonal right now so I think you're taking things a *little* too seriously, but some of those comments would probably irk me. But you've got more important things to occupy your thoughts now, right? And I'm sorry to say, the random comments from people you barely know or even strangers only get worse the further along you get...almost everyone has something to say to an expecting mother, that's just the way it is. Just rise above.
My mom is happy about the pregnancy but one of the first things she said when I mentioned a name I liked was, ';You're worrying about names? What about religion?'; My husband and I have different beliefs. I attend a non-denominational church and he was raised as a Jehovah's Witness.

Political Rant not really a ? but feel free to comment?
I've been answering political questions all morning and this is just a rant.
Ok so 48% of the voting population didn't vote for Obama. Yet, when anyone disagrees with the Democrats about anything they are demeaned or called names like stupid Bible humpers, even though there are legitimate complaints about the current administration and legislation that has been passed. ex: the stimulus package- Fox interviewed Congressmen who admitted to not reading the bill. Its not like I blame them entirely, the thing was a couple thousand pages long. And the White House rammed it down their throats.
But really become politically informed before you start demeaning people, have common courtesy. If you are just insulting people you look like you have no idea what you're talking about and you can't hold an intelligent conversation with someone with an opposing view point.
It goes for conservatives too. You just make your own side look bad when you can't talk about issues.
I actually gained much more respect for Obama when O'Reilly interviewed him. I feel like he is one of the few people who was asking questions that lay people what to know, and in turn Obama gave him very straightforward answers. None of this celebrity BS, where nobody is serious. I thought it was conducted better than the debates, no floozy Q%26amp;As.
sighPolitical Rant not really a ? but feel free to comment?
Those with only a limited capacity for understanding complex thought will almost always revert to assaulting an opponent verbally.
In debate and logic it's called an ';ad hominen'; to dissuade from an opinion by abusing the character of its holder rather than to convince by means of reason or intellect.
In short, those who lack intellectual capacity have no other weapon than slander.Political Rant not really a ? but feel free to comment?
to each his own opinion.
This is the reality- that people are entitled to their own opinion.
What you seem to want to accomplish by complaining is mess around with what people SHOULD MULL AROUND IN THEIR HEADS.
so go ahead and bow to your messiah. and leave the rest of the other citizens alone.
Shoo.
We are all entitled to our opinions, but yes, I prefer educated opinions too.

';Segregation'; rant and lots of questions?
Why is the LGBT group with the People with Disabilities and Senior Citizens groups? Does this offend anyone other than me? And why when you go to a book store they have separate areas for LGBT books and African American books. This makes no sense to me at all. They should be where they are categorized, Novel, Fiction etc Why is it that as people, LGBT and African Americans we want to be equal but we want our own section in book stores? And if we don't, if we want to be considered equal then why don't we complain and do something about it? Why when you turn on the TV you see black families and white families and all of them are heterosexual? When will we finally see interracial couples and gay couples and transgender couples? This is what forms our kids minds. This is what they base their morals and their values on. What they see in Ad's and the dolls they play with. When is someone going to stand up to this government, and this corporations and do something? Why don't we do that today?
Sorry about that. I'm real heated today :P';Segregation'; rant and lots of questions?
I understand completely where you're coming from. But it's also the same reason why we celebrate certain days, occassions - to make sure we never forget of our struggles, and how much we have accomplished, and how long we still have to traverse on the road to equality.
From a marketing standpoint, I'm sure some pencil pusher will say that it's ';easier'; if we can categorize a book as ';gay'; - ditto with films and music. And while they do tend to ';segregate'; us, think of the other side: It's widely available now. A few years back, there would not have been an aisle for any form of literature that was blatant/explicit about it being ';catering'; to ';homosexual desires';. (Of course, we've always had Proust and Wilde. Back off, English majors! I know what I'm talking about.)
The first step in our community overcoming prejudice is to make it plain for all to see - we need to identify ourselves and make the bashers see us straight in the eye. Having ';our'; books, films, music, etc., labeled and made known is an important step in that direction - it gives them perspective that we also suffer heartache, experience joy, and the whole gamut of human experiences and emotions - much like they do in ';their'; books, films, music, etc.
The day when we will no longer see people as gay/straight/bi/trans is still a ways off, but we are making strides in closing that gap, even if that is just at glacial speed. What matters is that we do something about it.';Segregation'; rant and lots of questions?
Here's what I think has happened. Many in the black community and the gay community have raised so much hell to get attention and respect, that corporations and businesses are now seeing themselves as catering to them and no one has stopped them. I too agree that there should be no segregation, no setting aside. It singles those people out and many don't want that. We're all just humans and that's how we should be treated.
a couple of years ago in my area on cinco de mayo all the latinos didn't go to work/school or spend any money as a protest. what we need to do is organize something like this nation wide but do it for an entire week idk it might work

A few years back, there would not have been an aisle for any form of literature that was blatant/explicit about it being ';catering'; to ';homosexual desires';. (Of course, we've always had Proust and Wilde. Back off, English majors! I know what I'm talking about.)
The first step in our community overcoming prejudice is to make it plain for all to see - we need to identify ourselves and make the bashers see us straight in the eye. Having ';our'; books, films, music, etc., labeled and made known is an important step in that direction - it gives them perspective that we also suffer heartache, experience joy, and the whole gamut of human experiences and emotions - much like they do in ';their'; books, films, music, etc.
The day when we will no longer see people as gay/straight/bi/trans is still a ways off, but we are making strides in closing that gap, even if that is just at glacial speed. What matters is that we do something about it.';Segregation'; rant and lots of questions?
Here's what I think has happened. Many in the black community and the gay community have raised so much hell to get attention and respect, that corporations and businesses are now seeing themselves as catering to them and no one has stopped them. I too agree that there should be no segregation, no setting aside. It singles those people out and many don't want that. We're all just humans and that's how we should be treated.
a couple of years ago in my area on cinco de mayo all the latinos didn't go to work/school or spend any money as a protest. what we need to do is organize something like this nation wide but do it for an entire week idk it might work
Random rant and question about drug stuff on here....10pts possible!?
Ok, just want to vent and get your opinion. I haver read so many questions on here about drug use and people asking about it. I by no means encourage it but if people want to know about smoking pot, who the hell cares? Or of someone asks about Xtacy or cocaine or prescription drugs. Every answer is uninformed people calling them losers and telling them they will die. Who dies from smoking pot? Its so common! People you wouldnt excpect do it and they are ok! I know drugs are bad and probably shouldnt be messed with. Obviously. But giving someone sh@t for it is not going to change there minds. Let them know the facts. Not your opinions. Im willin to bet they dont give a damn that you think its a bad idea or dont agree with it. Anyone else with me on this?Random rant and question about drug stuff on here....10pts possible!?
I totally agree with you and further I fully support the right of anyone to put anything they like in their own bodies. I hate the way governments now treat their citizens like children. I think children should be educated in the hazards whilst at school. But beyond that I think it is up to the individual. I work as a complementary therapist and I see the damage people do to their bodies with their rubbish diets - they don't even need drugsa to mess themselves up. People live miserable lives and die young as a result of the food choices they make so maybe the government will start legislating over that soon too.Random rant and question about drug stuff on here....10pts possible!?
nobody has ever died from smoking weed. and you are 100% right...people have been hearing **** about drugs since they were kids, so if they chose to mess with it to begin with, some random person off yahoo answers probably wont be able to talk them out of it.
Oh you are sooo wrong about pot and as a woman you and any children are far more at risk!!!
Marijuana potency has grown steeply over the past decade with serious implications for users with the average amount of THC having more than doubled.
In the same period the number of admissions to psychiatric hospital caused by the drug soared by 85 per cent due to the fact that those who smoke the drug regularly are more than twice as likely to suffer illnesses such as schizophrenia, hallucinations and delusions later in life.
Teens using marijuana to alleviate feelings of depression just compound the problem.
As well as psychotic illness cannabis can cause affective disorders such as depression, anxiety and suicidal thoughts. Even worse it is linked to cancers.
Cannabis users display neuropsychological dysfunction (relative frontal lobe functioning deficits, cognitive inhibition) and attentional deficits similar to those found in schizotypal or schizophrenia patients.
Regular use can shrink the parts of the brain which control memory, emotion and aggression. The hippocampus, which is thought to govern emotion and memory averages 12% smaller and the amygdala, which has a part in controlling fear and aggression, 7% smaller. This suggests that heavy daily use may be toxic to human brain tissue.
Blood flow velocity is significantly higher in users and they have higher values on the pulsatility index (PI), which measures the amount of resistance to blood flow. This is thought to be due to narrowing of the blood vessels that occurs when the circulation system's ability to regulate itself is impaired. This leads to abnormalities in the small blood vessels in the brain.
The active chemical in MJ called delta-9-tetrahyrdocannabinol (THC) binds to cannabinoid (CB) receptors located on several cell types in various organs. This greatly increases the risk for heart attacks and strokes in addition to impaired learning and memory.
It can also effect physical health. Three to four cannabis cigarettes a day cause the same amount of damage to the lungs as 20 or more tobacco cigarettes a day. Thus there are rising levels of lung diseases such as emphysema.
In comparison to cigarettes marijuana smoke has significantly higher levels of toxic compounds, including ammonia and hydrogen cyanide. Ammonia levels are 20 times higher while hydrogen cyanide, nitric oxide and certain aromatic amines occurred at levels 3-5 times higher.
It can also effect the unborn child. Scientists have identified that endogenous cannabinoids, molecules naturally produced by our brains are functionally similar to THC from cannabis and play significant roles in establishing how certain nerve cells connect to each other. Maternal cannabis use allows THC to travel through the placenta and impair fetal brain development and impose life-long cognitive, social, and motor deficits in affected offspring.
Low doses of 脛-9 tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), equivalent to that in the bloodstream of an average marijuana smoker facilitate infection of skin cells and can cause these cells to turn into malignant sarcoma.free makeup laser cartridges

A Rant of sorts: What are your thoughts on this sort of music?
This 'artist' called Candace Marie used to be a model but a record label realized she could sing so gave her a deal.
In just TWO days she went to a LA studio (with big-time producer John Shanks) and recorded eleven songs which made up her entire record in just TWO days.
She had zero creative input and saw the songs, literally, an hour before she recorded them and picked up a big pay cheque.
So what do you think of this cheap kind of music?
Would you buy it? Because somebody is.
: (A Rant of sorts: What are your thoughts on this sort of music?
I think it sux balls to be honest, but it doesnt surprise me record labels just wont take chances anymore they want to make big bucks and they arnt willing to gamble, for instance look at all the programs like pop idol americas idol wotever is going where you are from , these are testers to see will this music or person sell that simple, but it doesnt stop stupid ppl from watchin voting etc....
There are great musicians and artists out there that simply wont get a chance because of the sheep like behaviour of ppl and the fact they are letting the record labels and media tell them wot to wear buy eat sleep and $hit,ppl have stopped thinking for themselves and big business is taking an advantage of this.A Rant of sorts: What are your thoughts on this sort of music?
Nah, it's people like that, that have no real passion or creativity in 'their'; music that makes it suck.
Which is why I thank my mom for giving me a Monkees cd when I was younger.
True that i went on itunes and listened to it... pretty sure that was cool in like 2001 now it just sounds cheap!

Isn't it time Bush STOPS killing the baby Seals? (not a rant from the nutty left)?
(First I am not a typical left-wing nut) BUT.......
Bush is killing baby seals and the Billions of dollars are flowing to Dick Cheneys company because of this. Bush has also made sugar less sweet and Haliberton is making millions off this everyday. My cable went out last night for 20 minutes....Chi-CHING for Haliberton $$$$. My dog had a litter of pups one died..THANKS BUSH!!! See the way the conspiracy works is like this: Bush does all these terrible things like changing the weather, causing famine's all over the world, killing baby kittens, polluting all the earths water %26amp; global warming then Haliberton and it's President Dick Cheney charge the tax payers 100 Trillion dollars per day to quit doing these things over %26amp; over.
It's as clear as an alien abduction of Elvis in 1977, EVERYONE knows this but everyone keeps quite...WHY???? WHY????Isn't it time Bush STOPS killing the baby Seals? (not a rant from the nutty left)?
It's clear by reading a lot of the other answers that some people don't understand sarcasm at its finest.Isn't it time Bush STOPS killing the baby Seals? (not a rant from the nutty left)?
And that weather machine, you know the one Bush used to create Katrina because he hates black people, is on on Mars being run by Bigfoot. The plan is to cause global warming there, and then we can have an excuse to declare war on the peace loving Martians so that we can go there and steal all of their oil.
Very true but don't forget that Bush and Cheney paid Gore to make up Global Warming, so that to can be blamed on this administration. LOL Good job
What are you a nut? Get your meds or what can't afford them thank Bush. As for killing heck that good ole boy would kill humans don't worry about the seals we have 50 years of substainable life on earth why else do you think the bubbas all have shuttles and need control of the oil!
I'd say that sums it up for the left.
Be careful: blaming Bush for the weather isn't that far off. Once you've lept off a mental cliff and believe Bush is at fault for global warming, anything is possible...
Your right, you are not the typical left wing nut. Your an outer fringes left wing full on lunatic.
Your a nut alright!
If you're not a typical left-wing nut, why are you posting the kind of stuff a typical left-wing nut would post? OH, wait a minute, I got it; IRONY! Bravo!
I would offer that it appears you did not have your oats today.
I will add here that I find it much more appalling that Bush continues to be responsible for the killing of hundreds of thousands of Iraqi citizens, including children.
Now.
Go get your oats.
I saw Elvis just yesterday - He looked soooooo good.
you and your friends should make campaing called kill bush lol
hats what you want. and do your homework because he is not killing them people in Canada are and all the sick harted people that want fur.
How do you give - stars????
Sounds like a bunch of left wing nut ranting to me.
Bush isn't doing anything Al Gore and every other liberal isn't doing to a greater extent.
Two of my daughters had children during the Clinton administration. But Bill had nothing to do with either one. Just because it happens during a term doesn't mean the President is responsible.
On the other hand, during the time of LBJ the Democrats controlled Congress and voted to build floodgates aross the entrance to Lake Ponchartain. LBJ signed the bill. But liberal environmentalists managed to block the construction and eventually killed the whole thing.
Katrina rolls in and Nawlins' gets flooded. Do Democrats say anything about the fact there was a proposed fix that would have prevented the flooding on their watch and they fumbled the ball? Heck no! The blame the whole thing on Bush!
You're NOT a typical left-wing nut?! I'd be interested in knowing what you consider a typical left-wing nut. Frankly, I've seen a lot of posting from left-wing nuts on here, and I guess I must agree that you are not a typical left-wing nut....You are perhaps the NUTTIEST of the left-wing nuts!
Unless, this is sarcasm or irony, in which case BRAVO!! You sure had me fooled! A star for a masterful job, unlike the others because they think you're right! THAT'S funny! (It'll be interesting to see how many of the actual left-wing nuts agree with this.)
Don't look now, but there's one already!
hahahaha! I think I like you!
I can't find my keys
I bet it was Bush %26amp; Rove playing tricks on me again
It rained at my house yesterday. There's no telling how many trillions of dollars Cheney and Halliburton made off that...
no you are for sure no left wing nut, you are just a total idiot. I know you are from the far far far right, but regardless you are just a plain idiot in the eyes of a normal american. Is it going to hurt when you have to see the truth?

Here is your chance to rant?
I am so sick of many things on this forum.
1. Racism is certainly not a word I like throwing around so I will not. But, there are numorous people on here (Those of who I will not name) that constantly rant and rave about how a certain group of people/boxers are better than another certain group. It's so sickening. We are in the 21st century here people. Its time to grow up. If not just leave this forum because you are not wanted nor needed here.
2. Just because sombody is a Mayweather fan does not mean they hate Pacquio or hate white people. Same goes for Pacquio fans. I am white and PR and I Like Mayweather. He is my favorite boxer. However I also really like Pacquio (Filipino), Cotto (PR) and sombody like Paul Malignaggi. (White) I love alot of different boxers.
3. I thought this was a boxing forum? A forum where best answers are appreciated? I am tired of people picking answers THEY LIKE and not the BEST ANSWER. Hey people? The thumbs up botton was designed to show if you like somthing. Give them thumbs up if you like it but give best answer to...well...THE BEST ANSWER!
4. Bottom line, people need to relax. I know nothing about this multiple account business but if sombody on here does it, stop. You're a loser. Yahoo answers is not that serious where you need multiple accounts to make yourself look good. Somtimes people are going to agree with you. Somtimes they aren't. It happens.
5. So does anyone agree/disagree with me? All comments appreciated. ThanksHere is your chance to rant?
Here, here.
To be honest it's just all of the general childish behaviour I find draining. I'm glad you didn't place too much emphasis on racism because i don't think it is a major issue. Very few people on here are racist. I think people throw around the term far too much without giving it a though because it's too easy. Plead racism and most PC people will back down, it requires no intellect or rational thought process to wrongly accuse someone of being a racist. A quick fix.
I'm fed up seeing people attacked at a personal level for expressing an opinion. This happens mostly when people disagree with an unpopular opinion. The whole point of a forum is to share knowledge and opinions, the differences is what it's all about and diplomatic and respectful counter arguments should prevail over name calling and childish bickering. If people aren't here to debate with and learn from each other then why are they here? The best thing i like to get out of YA Boxing is a different perspective, the other side of the coin. It allows me to see the holes in my own opinions and it exposes my nativities so that i can reflect upon them and try to see the bigger picture. I like to broaden my horizons though the knowledge of the good people i frequent the site with.
I'm sick of people being so fragile, people seem to get offended at the slightest things and tend to retalite in a spiteful manner, which then escalades into a situation too big to ignore or control. If you take offence to something just take it on the chin and forget about it.
I'm tired of the humour by-pass in here. You can't have a bit of a laugh about a trivial matter without people accusing you of something, calling you a name or expressing their disapointment in you.
I'm tired of people having an inflated sense of importance. Who are you to judge me or anyone else? Do you want me to sit on the naughty chair now? Some people need to get off their high horse.
I'm sick of people trying to score points with one another and score one over the ';opposition';. The ';us vs them'; mentality is a major problem that needs sorting. We're not politicians, we're boxing fans.
I'm fed up with people moaning about trivial things like getting thumbs down or not getting best answer, does it really matter? Does it have any impact on your day to day life?
...I think thats everything...thanks for the opportunity!Here is your chance to rant?
I agree and disagree.
Can't say I disagree.
Too true.
Amen to you.
I agree, and as a result, I have starred your question.
Great job.
I do agree
Thank you...
I have respect for all boxers...
I am a fan of the Klitschko brothers, Floyd Mayweather, Manny Pacquiao, ect.,ect...yet I get accused of being racist???
I don't understand why people think its racist to think that Mayweather will beat Pacquiao. I'm getting accused for being a quote un-quote ';multiple account'; because of the fact that I agree with others on certain issues...
Lets just end the BS and keep it strictly boxing because any and everything will eventually be sovled in the ring...
I enjoy some Euro fighters and think they are class acts....
When I say that I think Calzaghe is overrated, it isn't because he's from Europe, it's because I think he's a cherry picker...
I think the Klitschko's, particularily Vitali, are underatted and deserve TOP 10 P4P spots over the likes of Paul Williams and whoever else is there based off of anything other than their fights...
I'm a fan of all races, nationalities, and creeds...
Racism is definitely the biggest problem in this forum. That is undeniable. It exist at all facets of people's answeres whether if it is direct or indirect.
Ofcourse it has disturb me for quite some period unil I just choose to ignore it. Whether if you are a Mayweather fan, Cotto fan, Pacquaio fan, or whatever, I think it is only coherent to apply an analysis that is respectful without truly being insulting or malicious.
I agree with Sean G, i think my bros Knight and Sean G are one of the most attacked people because of their support for their favorite fighters. Of course there is another person here as well who is not popular among Filipino fans. I have truly seen that as somewhat unfair and there were even some times when i felt like I have to stick up for them (Sean G, Normen, and Knight) because both are my friends even though we may have diverging ideas.
I have even seen someone attack my good friends Mak W and toughguy2 who has always been humble and polite. That really pisses me off when people do that to such a great guy.
The increasing amount of Pacquiao fans in this forum has been spectacular. I honestly believe that there are more FIlipinos here than any other group cohorts because of Pacquiao's magnificent display of perfectionism and achievements as a true all time great. that of course has led to some brittle between Pacquaio fans and Mayweather fans. That is probably the biggest issue here because of such occurence, racism often prevailed as an approach to either ruin a fighter's reputation or consider one's favorite fighter as superior, and sometimes considering the race of that fighter has something to do with his skills. Of course, every fighter from every race is different. You can be from Australia and be the best boxer, you dont have to be from Europe, Asia, America, or Latin America.
I hope this racism ends, and if there are any racially motivated views against me because of my specified preferences on a fighter, please just leave me alone. All I ask is for racist people to leave me alone and leave people alone who are trying to have a good time conevrsing about boxing.
God bless all! :-)
1. i agree, racism is WRONG and needs to stop, people should love the sport not just its fighters....dont hate the player, hate the game!
2. i agree somewhat.... if someones gonna defend theyre fighter, do it without bashing on other fighters! you dont need to hate to get your point across..
3. i am getting very pissed about that as well! there are these guys in this forum that are so biased and only agreeing w/ each others opinion!(you know who you are), theyre supposedly bffs or something, news flash for you guys, this is YAHOO ANSWERS! youre supposed to choose the BEST ANSWER not your BESTFRIENDS ANSWER!
4.people wit multiple accounts are losers wit no life, nuff said...
5. yeah i agree with you, thanks for putting this issue out there its really starting to get outta hand...
I have read some really racist things in this forum. I won't repeat them but needless to say it really ruins this great forum for everyone. I think what also bothers me is that if you stick up for a boxer of one race people accuse you of being racist against boxers of other races.
I'm not really a Mayweather fan but I hear what you're saying. The Mayweather fans are taking a lot of stick in this forum and its unjustified. Mayweather and Pacquiao are in direct competition at the moment. Both sets of fans think their guy is number 1 so there is bound to be some friction but this doesn't mean people hate the other guy.
People pick best answer for many different reasons. Maybe they like the answer, maybe they learned something from the answer, or maybe they just wanted to give best answer to their friend. I don't have any problem with this. What I don't like is people having multiple accounts and giving best answer to themselves. I'm in this forum to discuss boxing and express my views with boxing fans from around the world. I want to gain knowledge about boxing and share my knowledge with others. Coming to this forum to and having multiple accounts to give yourself points is pretty sad in my opinion, but each to their own.
You're right. People need to relax, myself included. We all get annoyed if people dis our favourite boxer but just air your grievances and more on. Don't hold a grudge, don't block people because they don't think the same way as you and keep things above board.
Great question by the way
Amen. Amen. Amen.
There is real racist view points in here. But some people accuse any view that doesn't coincide with their as being racially motivated. There also seems to be a double standard in the fact that people will say one group (say blacks) who root for a fighter of their race is racist, when their hero is their race. Many people root for fighters that are their same race and there is nothing wrong with that. And because of this people like me are labeled. This label leads to me getting thumbs down no matter who informative an answer I give is. I had one answer last week that had 11 thumb downs in which I said Pacquiao would win and explained how more accurately than anyone else. Thankfully the non-biased asker gave me the best answer despite how unpopular I AM. I have one account. My account isn't private. I copy no one's answer (but my own)...But I feel like I am side by side with Knight in the race for most hated in the forum because the increase of Pacquiao fans who hate on me because it isn't my opinion that he is the best in boxing (despite the fact that I say he is a great fighter etc etc. I wonder how many best answers I'll have if people judged on the merit of my answer/ arguement/ information...?free makeup laser cartridges
1. Racism is certainly not a word I like throwing around so I will not. But, there are numorous people on here (Those of who I will not name) that constantly rant and rave about how a certain group of people/boxers are better than another certain group. It's so sickening. We are in the 21st century here people. Its time to grow up. If not just leave this forum because you are not wanted nor needed here.
2. Just because sombody is a Mayweather fan does not mean they hate Pacquio or hate white people. Same goes for Pacquio fans. I am white and PR and I Like Mayweather. He is my favorite boxer. However I also really like Pacquio (Filipino), Cotto (PR) and sombody like Paul Malignaggi. (White) I love alot of different boxers.
3. I thought this was a boxing forum? A forum where best answers are appreciated? I am tired of people picking answers THEY LIKE and not the BEST ANSWER. Hey people? The thumbs up botton was designed to show if you like somthing. Give them thumbs up if you like it but give best answer to...well...THE BEST ANSWER!
4. Bottom line, people need to relax. I know nothing about this multiple account business but if sombody on here does it, stop. You're a loser. Yahoo answers is not that serious where you need multiple accounts to make yourself look good. Somtimes people are going to agree with you. Somtimes they aren't. It happens.
5. So does anyone agree/disagree with me? All comments appreciated. ThanksHere is your chance to rant?
Here, here.
To be honest it's just all of the general childish behaviour I find draining. I'm glad you didn't place too much emphasis on racism because i don't think it is a major issue. Very few people on here are racist. I think people throw around the term far too much without giving it a though because it's too easy. Plead racism and most PC people will back down, it requires no intellect or rational thought process to wrongly accuse someone of being a racist. A quick fix.
I'm fed up seeing people attacked at a personal level for expressing an opinion. This happens mostly when people disagree with an unpopular opinion. The whole point of a forum is to share knowledge and opinions, the differences is what it's all about and diplomatic and respectful counter arguments should prevail over name calling and childish bickering. If people aren't here to debate with and learn from each other then why are they here? The best thing i like to get out of YA Boxing is a different perspective, the other side of the coin. It allows me to see the holes in my own opinions and it exposes my nativities so that i can reflect upon them and try to see the bigger picture. I like to broaden my horizons though the knowledge of the good people i frequent the site with.
I'm sick of people being so fragile, people seem to get offended at the slightest things and tend to retalite in a spiteful manner, which then escalades into a situation too big to ignore or control. If you take offence to something just take it on the chin and forget about it.
I'm tired of the humour by-pass in here. You can't have a bit of a laugh about a trivial matter without people accusing you of something, calling you a name or expressing their disapointment in you.
I'm tired of people having an inflated sense of importance. Who are you to judge me or anyone else? Do you want me to sit on the naughty chair now? Some people need to get off their high horse.
I'm sick of people trying to score points with one another and score one over the ';opposition';. The ';us vs them'; mentality is a major problem that needs sorting. We're not politicians, we're boxing fans.
I'm fed up with people moaning about trivial things like getting thumbs down or not getting best answer, does it really matter? Does it have any impact on your day to day life?
...I think thats everything...thanks for the opportunity!Here is your chance to rant?
I agree and disagree.
Can't say I disagree.
Too true.
Amen to you.
I agree, and as a result, I have starred your question.
Great job.
I do agree
Thank you...
I have respect for all boxers...
I am a fan of the Klitschko brothers, Floyd Mayweather, Manny Pacquiao, ect.,ect...yet I get accused of being racist???
I don't understand why people think its racist to think that Mayweather will beat Pacquiao. I'm getting accused for being a quote un-quote ';multiple account'; because of the fact that I agree with others on certain issues...
Lets just end the BS and keep it strictly boxing because any and everything will eventually be sovled in the ring...
I enjoy some Euro fighters and think they are class acts....
When I say that I think Calzaghe is overrated, it isn't because he's from Europe, it's because I think he's a cherry picker...
I think the Klitschko's, particularily Vitali, are underatted and deserve TOP 10 P4P spots over the likes of Paul Williams and whoever else is there based off of anything other than their fights...
