I have the following picture: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v414/dingly/Screenshot2010-12-01at95859AM.png and I want to cut out all the background and just have the cooler and the cord as the picture. How can I do this in Photoshop Elements?

I found the magic wand tool and cut out the background but how should I make a transparent layer?

A while ago I stumbled upon this picture titled "Democrats VS Republicans" and it was split into a blue side and a red side. On each side, it listed the various characteristics of democrats and republicans. Does anyone have this image?

I remember there was something you could type in your address bar when you're on your Facebook login page where it will reveal your password. Anyone know what I am talking about?

I sold something as-is and broken on eBay. I made it very clear that what I was selling was not guaranteed to work. The buyer is not threatening me to ruin my 100% feedback by leaving a negative feedback and filing a claim. I am not worried about him filing a claim since I know I will win. But what I am concerned about is him leaving the negative feedback. Can the buyer leave me negative feedback even before he files a claim / loses the claim?

marshmallard posted:Yes, but you can get it removed if eBay agree that it's defamatory (which pretty much only requires you filling a defamation form and faxing it to them). Wow is that so? I have 400 feedback at 100% that I've kept at for the past 7 years.....

I have a 8' x 3' window in my bedroom loft. It has blinds, but in the morning the sun just goes right through them. What do you think the most cheapest and efficient way to cover up the window would be? I'm thinking of buying sheets of construction papers but I need a second opinion.

I'm looking to lease a car that has a very short lease term. Preferably, 12 - 24 month terms. The shortest I have found is 27 months from BMW.

I will be traveling from Japan to China for in June. My Japanese passport expires a month after I get back to Japan from China. Are they going give me a hard time for using a passport that expires on in July?

kimbo305 posted:Maybe this is a stupid question, but what sense does it make to have a hard expiry on a passport if countries will get more and more qualitatively uneasy as the expiration comes up? Wouldn't it make more sense if it were honored right up until the end? I can't see how having extra time left on the passport would prevent any of the possible immigration / illegal-stay issues that might arise. This is what I was thinking. Also, since I have a Japanese passport I am eligible to stay in China for 15 days without having to apply for a Visa. Would they really turn me around just because my passport expires in a month?

My friend sent me some money he owed me via Paypal. The money is sitting in my Paypal account right now and I need access to is as soon as possible. Bank deposit takes a few days, so I'm thinking the best option is to use my Paypal debit card and make a withdrawal at an ATM. 1) What would be the most I could withdrawal at an ATM with my Paypal Mastercard? 2) I've been thinking that it would be better to get cash back somewhere. Where can I get a large amount of cash back from a debit card?

Is anyone familiar with what a background check when starting a new job actually entails? I know they check your criminal record and what not. But what else do they check? Are they able to get information on what business licenses you've received if you started your own business?

Is there a software or a website that I can overlay two images from Google maps over each other? For example, if I want to compare the size of San Francisco and Seattle by putting both the Google Maps image over each other.

I'm currently sick and my family doctor recommended that he prescribes me amoxicillin. However, I looked through my medicine cabinet and I found an unopen bottle of Amoxicillin, still sealed, in the back of the cabinet. It was prescribed in July 2010, and on the Walgreens label says to use before July 2011. It was in a cool and dark place, probably did not even move from the spot I found it in today, so I'm assuming it's still safe to use?

Florida Betty posted:It won't hurt you, but it will be less effective. Why wouldn't you just get a new prescription? Antibiotics are dirt cheap. Some pharmacies even fill them for free. Because my doctor charges a ridiculous co-pay due to my lovely insurance and will not, under any circumstances, fill me a prescription over the phone.

I've recently started simmering vegetable oil with ground up marijuana to mix in brownie mix to make brownies with. It's worked out really well. However, I would like to find a healthier alternative to mix the oil with instead of brownies, does anyone have any suggestions? I end up getting way too high from the brownies, getting the munchies, and then eating more brownies and getting more high, sometimes uncomfortably high.... yes... it's a vicious cycle.

I will be going out of town to San Francisco next month for little under a week and I was thinking about just booking a hotel through kayak.com / hotel.com websites but I remember hearing something a while back about people renting out their apartments / condos for a few days on a website. Anyone know what I'm talking about?

I was eating a sandwich a few days ago and all the oil from it dripped onto my khaki shorts. I didn't clean it for a few days and when I did, my pants smelled like absolute poo poo. I was able to get all the oil stains out but even after using stain remover and washing it two times, it still smells. What can I use to get rid of this smell? I was thinking of soaking the specific area in Isopropyl alcohol or something like that but I wouldn't know if it would ruin the shorts?

Weirdly, it is $300 cheaper to buy a roundtrip ticket to China that departs from Vancouver with a layover in Seattle then it is to buy directly from SEA to China. Same airline and everything. My question is, if I purchase the roundtrip ticket that leaves from Vancouver - Seattle - Shanghai but miss my Vancouver flight and catch the Seattle flight, is that possible?

I've been walking around in 100+ degree weather and got some salt sweat stains on my shorts. Best way to remove it without taking it to the dry cleaners? I really like these shorts so I don't want to just throw em in the washer and dryer. Preferably just hand wash the stained area.

Will be visiting my friend down in Hawaii in a few weeks and wanted to bring him a bottle of liquor. I was going to purchase a big bottle from my local Costco but realized that I will not be able to bring it on my carry on and the checked bag fee is $25 for the first bag. I've never purchased anything from duty free before but even for domestic flights, is it a good deal for alcohol or should I just purchase some when I am down in Hawaii?

Health Insurance billing question: My insurance (Premera) pays for one physical a year so I made an appointment with my doctor's office and went to get that done. This physical covers all preventative tests and includes "Sexually transmitted infection (STI) screening and counseling for those at higher risk". Before they drew my blood, my doctor came in and asked me if there was any concerns or questions I had with him before he left. I told him that there was a small bump on my penis that I would like for him to check out. I was not worried that it was an STD / STI and told him specifically that it was most likely an ingrown hair from when I shaved. He looked at it, said luckily it does not look like an STD, and prescribed me an antibiotic cream and sent me on my way. A month later, I received a bill for the blood test for around $200. Contacted my insurance company and they informed me that it was not covered since it was billed as a diagnostic test rather than a preventative one even though I specifically asked my doctor if the blood work was part of the yearly physical. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I should go about this? Should I contact my doctor's office to have them rebill the blood work as a preventative?

thrakkorzog posted:I've dealt with Volt on both sides of hiring, being both the guy hiring temps from Volt, and being a temp who got a job through Volt. In my experience, they just ask if people have proof of citizenship, but they never actually ask for you to whip out a Driver's license and Social Security Card. The actual employer is on the hook to keep records of proof of citizenship, but Volt never asked for any of that. To give you more detail on what happened: 1) Found job on Volt.com and job description stated to apply online AND send resume to recruiter xxxxx@volt.com 2) Received email a few days later from xxxxx@volt.com email with detailed information including wage & benefits of job. 3) Email had PDF attachments to sign + asked to give SS # and birthdate within email. 4) After sending email, received call and voicemail from the recruiter informing me that they have received my information and will go forward with the process. I did not give the recruiter my cell phone number within the email so only way she received that information is through my Volt account when I applied for the job through their website. Does it still seem like a scam? Regardless, what are the next steps I should take for damage control?

Has anyone had to deal with an acquaintance that you haven't talk to in years of yours asking to take you out for coffee or to meet up so that they can discuss some business/job opportunity? It's always a mysterious topic and if you ask them about it they change the subject or steer away from the question. I have had to deal with this a few years ago and my friend just called me saying some guy came into his work at the car shop and presented him with a potential job opportunity and wanted to take him out for coffee and it reminded me of something that happened a few years ago. There's always some group meeting and the word "partners" used a lot and it just seems so cult-ish. Has anyone had to deal with something like this? I was always curious to know what they were trying to sell or present....

I am currently in a small dispute on eBay with a buyer of one of my items and I was hoping someone could tell me what the best course of option is. I put up a listing for an e-cig a few weeks ago. This e-cig retails for $80 and when purchased brand new, comes with a disposable cartridge + disposable mouthpiece. This is an example of the disposable cartridge that you can purchase for the e-cig: http://www.ebay.com/itm/1-Omicron-Extract-Cartridge-1-4-ohm-for-3-7v-/291071735258?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item43c53a35da As you can see, it comes packaged with a disposable mouthpiece that is meant to be thrown out at the same time the cartridge is. I consider it one item. On my eBay listing, I clearly stated that my ecig does not come with a disposable cartridge since I threw it away. I also made it very clear on what the auction comes with. I wrote: Included in the e-cig kit is everything it came with except for the cartridge: 1 x e-cig 1 x AC/USB Battery Charger 1 x USB Battery Charger Cable 1 x Cartridge Fill Tool 1 x Online User Manual 1 x Rugged Carry Case The buyer of the item is upset that I did not include the mouthpiece in his order. He is calling me a liar and that I am trying to make "fast money" by not including the mouthpiece. My argument is that I consider the cartridge & mouthpiece one item since they are always packaged together. What should I do? The buyer has requested that I send him a new mouthpiece.... but as I mentioned previously, I would have to buy him a new cartridge since that is the only way to get a mouthpiece.

I am checking the resistance on two terminals on a dropping resistor for a car. The service manual says "Is the resistance between 9 and 15 Ω?". I have a multimeter and don't understand what number for the Ω section to put it on. How do I read the resistance? I've put it on 200 under Ω and it shows 60.5 on the meter. High ohms is bad = less current, correct?

A family contract I hired a few weeks ago started working on remodeling the bathroom and when we took the wall apart he pointed out some water damage within the wall. I called my State Farm insurance agent and after he came in told me it would not be covered since it was not an accident and has been an ongoing problem. Literally 15 minutes after he left, the city inspector stopped by and gave us a fine / stop work ticket for doing remodel work without a permit. I was pretty surprised since I didn't consider minor wall repair work to require a permit but I guess it is what it is. Pretty sure my insurance agent went and informed the city? Anyway, the city wants a blueprint for the work that we are going to do and someone told me they would do it for $3000 (!!!!!) for a blueprint... that's going to cost more than the remodel it self!! Should I really expect to pay that much for a simple blueprint?

I'm planning on going to a location a few hours away from my house which is considered some of the best light pollution free area in the country. What would be the best ideal time to see the stars? Full moon? No moon at all? Obviously a clear sky so I would go when the weather is supposed to be nice and clear. But besides that, anything else?
