I want a new CD/DVD-RW/DVD+RW drive. What should I be looking for in a decent reliable but fairly cheap drive?

I've found a new periodic table, and to some extent, I am converted. To refresh your memory, the standard IUPAC periodic table looks like this: Now this one's just fine for most purposes, but it gets a bit confusing when you're dealing with electronic configurations of elements. for the...

the picture is a cloud, probably cumulonimbus or maybe just a large cumulus. Please note the rain coming out if it. I should also add that not all clouds are made of snow, some are simly small rain droplets.

your questionnaire will not tell you very much. It limits people's choices. For instance, you ask "what do you think of the colour red in beverage packaging" (or something like that). My answer would be that I try to buy my food and drink items based on prior experience and taste. I tend to...

Now i'm not sure how many posts CC gets per day, but I noticed today that we're into the 900,000's, which means there's a milepost looming. One day, sometime fairly soon, someone will make the 1,000,000th post. What will the prize be?

I just found this article online: I'm rather shocked to find it. First: why does anyone except the diabetic and their guardians (if they are young or infirm) need to know how to deliver an insulin shot? I've often met people who believe that if a diabetic is found in what the nurses insist on...
