How do I make that horizontal line below "objective" come closer to "objective" or vice versa (Objective come closer to the Horizontal line)

I think your friend set an outline for the line with the title. So that's no underscores, and it's no separate line.
 
I don't know how you can choose to believe something. I can't choose to believe in God, there is no way I could, even if it was advantageous.
 
I'm going for an interview tomorrow morning for an unpaid sales/marketing internship. I know the basic stuff like being able to answer what are your strengths, weaknesses, describe yourself, and dressing appropriately, but what else can I expect? How long should I expect the interview to be?

This is also my first interview, btw.
 
I'm looking for a fantasy web comic I saw one time where the whole first chapter took place on one page, and all of the images were designed so that they blended into each other instead of using panels. The story followed a boy who visited his grandfather's house (I think) and stumbled upon a secret doorway to a magical world.

I can't remember the name of the comic. Anyone happen to know what I'm talking about?
 
German gaffers, how do you turn off newsletters from Amazon.de? I ordered a thing from them a while ago, but I don't know any German so I can't navigate through the site.
 
My 2 year phone upgrade with Verizon happens 3/27. I've never had a smartphone before. Should I ...

a) Get an iPhone 4s
b) Wait for an iPhone 5. (Is that happening this year?)
c) Get an android phone
d) Be happy with what I have and just stick to texting with what not and make myself believe smartphones are overrated
 
I would recommend waiting. Either on the new iPhone or the next htc android phone. The Samsung Nexus is good, but its the forerunner for the new version, best to wait on the next one.
 
I have a dilemma here,

My class had a 4-5 page paper due on Wednesday. It is now 1:40pm Friday...and basically I convinced myself I was gonna hand it in late by Friday the latest. I haven't even fucking started it. My prof deducts 5% off each day it is late (I dunno if weekends count) but by now I have lost 10% definitely. Her office will be closed at 4pm, which gives me 2 and a half hours to finish a 5 page paper.

My question is, should I even try to finish it right now and hand it in at 4pm resulting in a 10% loss and making me rush it, so I know I'll be getting a shitty mark. Or should I wait until monday to hand it in resulting in either a 15% or 25% loss - but it gives me an abundance of time to do the best I possibly can.

*Paper is also worth 20% of the grade*
(I however, aced my midterm, and am sitting at around 80% in the class right now)

Cliffs:
- Have a 5page paper to do
- Can either do it in 2 and a half hours with 10% loss = Paper will not be best, probably a 50% paper with 10% deduction
- Or can do it over the weekend with a (15% or 25%) loss = Paper will be great, probably a 80% paper with a (15% or 25%) deduction

I know my fucking logic is horrible and that I should know better, when you're desperate..you're desperate

Just start working on it for crying out loud.
 
What is the amazon service called where you can send in old games and get credit?
I had all my old games/consoles signed in and was just waiting to get home again from a short trip, and now I can't find the service.
 
I'm writing a paper and need some help with the works cited.

Question - If the article you are quoting is not capitalized, do you capitalize it in the works cited?

Example:

Actual title of article - "Mammalian sleep and resistance to parasites"

So, in my works cited, do I put "Mammalian sleep and resistance to parasites" or "Mammalian Sleep and Resistance to Parasites" ?

I've never seen an article that didn't have that classic capitalization so I'm not sure what to do. I'm sure my teacher will count off either way.
 
How does Google Image search work? Regular Google search is just finding text but how do they link an image to a series of search terms? More importantly, how does this make safe search actually safe?

The only thing I can imagine is that they have a lot of regular users reporting offensive or just irrelevant images.
 
this question has been consuming me lately so i will just ask here..

has there ever been a retard actor going full normal? i mean it should be possible with enough coaching and enough takes.. it would be fascinating to watch an hour and a half movie where a person seems completely normal but is actually a retard.
 
Should I burn down my appartment?

I just saw a fucking spider on my blanket!!! ON MY BLANKET.

I'l probably not sleep tonight and it's the first time I saw one that big in my appartment. I saw a really small one this afternoon while cleaning, it's was just a milimeter wide maybe even less. I might have a nest. I feel violated?

Go out, try and pick up some girl/guy depending on your preferences, and go spend the night with them at their place. Repeat until threat of spiders is gone or sufficiently replaced by threat of herpes.

The worst thing is, I have a cat and she was sleeping the whole time the spider walk in front of her. It's her job to eat those things godamnit
 
I want to watch something on making movies. Something like the behind the scenes footage on a DVD bonus menu, but long and not as compacted. That part is always very interesting to me, but they'll always go "So yeah here's us filming a scene and hey here's us filming another scene from the end of the movie and hey let's look at the make up department now." Someone standing next to a film crew with a videocamera for the entire filming process seems rather unlikely, but what's the closest I can get to that?

It all comes down to what movies you like I think. Try googling "filmumentary". Here's one on Raiders of the Lost Ark. If you like Star Wars then you should check out his other filmumentaries.
 
Hey Gaf,

Whenever I play basketball, football, anything that works cardio, I can go at full speed for about 15 minutes, but after that I'm tired.
I'm not only tired, but a specific spot right under my right ribcage stings. I'm not fat, I'd say I'm pretty fit, but this issue makes being out-of-breath eve worse.

So I have sucky stamina, but where is this sting coming from? I've heard of something called sports induced asthma, is that it?

It goes away of course, once I rest for a time.

Tl;DR: Why does a specific point under my right rib cage sting when I'm out of energy/breath during sports? Should I be worried?

Sounds like a stitch in the side to me.

One thing you should watch out for is that you're breathing in through the nose and out through the mouth.

That sounds awfully accurate.

I've heard that you should breathe that way before. I keep breathing only through my mouth. I'll try to keep myself in check. Thanks.

Cyan said:
This. Very unlikely that it's anything to worry about.

If you want it to go away, work on your cardio! ;)

T_T I'm so terrible at it, but yes, it needs to be done.

Yeah, the issue with breathing in through the mouth is the air doesn't get filtered or warmed (as much) before it reaches your lungs.
