This is going to sound really stupid but I'm becoming increasingly paranoid that I'm doing it wrong. Can someone post a detailed guide on how to brush your teeth?

I haven't been able to find an answer anywhere: I seem to be unable to use the forum search function. It continually says "403: You are not authorized to use this feature". Does anyone know why this is the case and how I might go about searching the forum? I'm new to the forum and probably being an idiot, but any help would be appreciated. Obviously I'd search for the answer to this, but...

What's the name of that artist who makes mindblowing temporary artworks out of fallen leaves in ponds / snow / whatever else he finds just lying around? I'm sure his first name is Andrew but I'm buggered if I can remember his surname. He's got a beard (obviously).

It will allow you to assign basically anything to basically anything else, and once created it's easy to switch back to normal layout if needed: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/goglobal/bb964665.aspx

Is that you? I used this method and now my face is breaking out. edit: I have a question too. When I had a wireless G router my neighbor had full signal from my router and he could use my Internet with no problem. Now that I have a wireless N router he can't even see my SSID anymore at all. I thought this was because he didnt have an N card but he went out and bought one and its the same deal. I have no problem locating my SSID on all of my computers and phones when I am in my house.

Does anyone have opinions on a free software that I can use to make a file that is an .avi right now watchable on a DVD from a DVD player? I would like one that doesn't put on a watermark or anything, and I'm not a big AV person so it needs to be semi-simple. Any opinions on Avi2DVD, or suggestions for other programs? Thanks.

You might be able to do it by assigning capslock to one of your lesser used function keys, like F10 maybe, then use AutoHotKey to assign that to do the Alt+# combination that produces that letter.

Ok I seemed to have figured this out on my own. When he comes over here he can get a signal, I guess for some reason my N band router doesnt extend a signal further than inside of my house, which is weird to me since everything I read says that N should be faster and further extending than G, and he could get an 80% signal from six houses down the street. Also, even sitting right next to the router I am only getting about a 60% signal on my own computer. Any ideas?

If a house in minnesota (average yearly temperature=40 deg. F) has 19 16X32" clerestory windows on it's south side, and the utility bill in October is 115 dollars, Jan is 360, May is 138, how big is the house? I'm trying to get an estimate here, and I don't know anything about houses. If you have an idea where I can find information on this sort of estimate, rather than just giving me an estimate, I'd appreciate it. And I just need a ballpark figure for this.

I've not managed to find information on wikipedia, could anyone tell me what it is that causes tiger striping in wood? Like this: Obviously this particular example is just a loving lovely bit of wood in the first place, but I've seen the effect on other bits that aren't as fantastic overall.

The reviews on newegg are either "great signal" or "horrible signal" http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833122320&cm_re=Netgear_WNR1000-_-33-122-320-_-Product It'd be interesting to see how it performs if you try using the g standard, so to compare it to your old router. Edit: It could also be something really simple that you've set up incorrectly in your router settings that limits the wireless radius - if you set it up by default, sometimes manufacturers like to keep this smaller.

I am at my wits loving end with Comcast. I have been in this battle with them since August.
