Started learning CSS and I'm trying to do something but I've been stumped. I want to make the following say "Dear Mr. President," but the "D" is in a big red box and then the rest of the letters afterwards in normal text. I can get the D in a white box but I can't seem to get the "ear Mr. President," part to appear right next to the D. What should I do!?  This is my css: code:code:

Doctor rear end in a top hat posted:It's because you're using a div. Divs are block-level elements and will take up the entire row unless you style them as inline. If you want the first letter to be styled differently, use the first-letter pseudo-element. Also, and I have no idea whether this matters as I don't know CSS, but I see you're missing a semicolon in your .box definition. I don't know how stringent CSS's syntax is, but that might make things behave counter to how you want also.

Dogs sometimes chase their own tails (much to their owners' amusement). Do wolves and other canine species do this as well?

Who picks up the broken furniture that people leave by the curb? Most of that stuff looks too big to fit in garbage trucks, does the trash company send a special vehicle to pick it up, or does someone actually want a broken couch that smells bad and has a bunch of stains?

Most of that stuff looks too big to fit in garbage trucks, does the trash company send a special vehicle to pick it up, or does someone actually want a broken couch that smells bad and has a bunch of stains? A little from column A, a little from column B. Where I live they actually don't do curbside pickup of large stuff like that unless you call in advance. You get a few free pickups a year, and then there's a surcharge afterwards I think. Personally if I'm getting rid of something like that that still has some life left in it I'll leave it at the curb overnight. If it's still there the next morning I just take it to Goodwill. I don't know how widespread this is, but I had a good friend in college who lived in Jonestown, Pennsylvania, and spring cleaning there was actually a semi-official event every year where you'd put all your old crap on the curb, and it was free pickings for anyone who wanted it.

Garbage trucks can fit a lot of stuff, and are great at smashing things up to fit.

Going back to the bacteria convo we had a page or so ago. I usually take a two hour walk to work when the weather permits. Ie. When it is warm outside. I have my lunch in my backpack. Is this stupid? edit; greazeball posted:Contact the biggest art school in your area and ask if they're looking for new models. Depending on how long the poses are (they can be anywhere from <30 seconds to all day/numerous sittings), you can be more or less dynamic. If it's longer than a minute, don't try and do anything where your arms aren't resting or leaning on something. It's actually quite challenging and a great deal of being consistent is being able to control the posture of your hips, back and shoulders. I got a reply from them and they wanted me to describe myself and tell them about my previous modelling jobs. I mean. I havn't done modelling before. Is that a big deal? I figured I could do *stand still in pose* without previous experience. Affi fucked around with this message at 19:53 on May 16, 2013 |

SlayVus posted:Where would the best place to post asking for suggestions and opinions on the design of a wifi access web portal? If I understand you correctly, the access web portal is just a website that you point to in the router admin before allowing (or not) access, so it really wouldn't be different than any other website. Depending on how fancy it needed to be (users/passwords vs a disclaimer or whatever) it might not be difficult at all, a Google site for instance. Has anyone ever changed a old school wall phone jack into a USB charging station? I know there are plates that include USB sockets with the 110, but I'm specifically interested in the (useless) phone jacks in the house. Thanks.

Is this stupid? There's a lot of factors here. What kind of food? What kind of container is the food in? What kind of lunchbox? What temperature is 'warm enough' for a walk? If you are taking yougurt or something with a lot of mayo in it for a two hour hike, in a plain paper bag, in 80 degree weather... Might be a little iffy. If you add an insulated lunchbox/thermos, some icepacks and 70 degree weather, not nearly so bad.

Is this stupid? Everybody thinks that until they have to do it for more than 5-10 minutes! There is a lot of patience and discipline required obviously but also a certain amount of instinct and creativity involved in choosing your poses. There are good models and bad, but it's hard to explain the difference. Just tell them you've never modelled before so they know you're at least honest. Like any job, reliability and personality go a long way.

Is this stupid? Kids in Scandinavia have been doing that forever, so it's probably going to be fine, but cheese and stuff like that won't taste as good. When I was a kid my mother would make me lunch at around 8AM and I would keep it in my bag for 3-4 hours before eating it, and I never got sick. The temperature rarely reaches over 25-30 ºC(77-86ºF,) though.

What is the proper (or a proper) pencil grip? I've been trying what I find on the internet, but I can already tell that I'll wind up with a blister on a finger if I use them for too long - which is the problem I already had and which I realized was being caused by an improper grip. The ones that don't feel like they will cause blisters make my hand feel tired after just a few sentences. Are you supposed to keep your hand off the paper the entire time, for that matter, or is it okay to let it rest against the paper while your write (risking smudging)?

When a woman gets proposed to, how is it a surprise? Doesn't the guy have to go size her ring before? When you are driving and you come to a metered light, and it says "3 cars per green each lane" if you are behind someone who doesn't accelerate fast enough and you get caught in the red, can you get a ticket? it is never enough time for 3 cars to go.

Sometimes the couples pick out a ring together, in which case it's much less of a surprise.

pupdive posted:Speaking of credit cards is there a way to get an online one use only credit card number for a purchase? Well that certainly doesn't sound like you're trying to get discreet access to a porn site. The entire point of a credit card is the fact that you use it multiple times and through responsible spending, build credit. (At least back in the day, that was kind of the idea) What you can do, is put money on a Gift Card/Credit Card like a Visa Gift Card. You can use it online, but you have to register it through their site so you have an address to verify at the time of purchase.

Actually, some providers let you make a temporary number based on your real credit card. Citibank calls it a "virtual account number", I don't know what terms the others use. The Citibank ones let you set dollar and time limits on the virtual numbers, so you can give them to

It varies from couple to couple; sometimes the woman knows ahead of time and they buy the ring together, sometimes it's a complete surprise and the guy either guesses or looks at something else she owns. Or asks one of the girl's friends.

You can bring up the ring size when you ask the father for her hand in marriage.

tarepanda posted:Guys who propose without having discussed it with their girlfriend previously are complete idiots. It depends on the girl. Some would prefer to be surprised. It's a decent idea to have a conversation about her expectations in that regard when the relationship starts getting serious though. I never discussed it with my wife (beyond very early on in the relationship her telling me I was not to ask her dad if we got to that point) and she'd much rather it went down how it did than us sit down and talk about it.

Definitely -- I didn't mean plan out the proposal and all, but just approach and talk about the idea of marriage. Every single guy I know who was shot down proposing proposed blind.
