Do i take my digital SLR or a decent point and shoot camera? My travel priority is fantastic photos, but will the SLR be too big, get in the way, or temp theft from locals crooks around the world?<br /><br />Crooks are just as tempted by P&amp;S cameras. In fact, the traditional body design of dSLRs makes them look like film cameras (and thus less attractive). If you have enough experience with the sSLR to take great photos, use that. Make sure to buy a battery grip (if it&#039;s Canon, I...

Are the pricier ones worth the increase in amount?<br /><br />What are you going to be using it for? If you&#039;re going to be doing Photoshop, editing video, or doing other graphically intense things, it&#039;s worth it to get a MBP. Otherwise, stick with the lighter, much cheaper MacBook.

There are probably many things in your life that aren&#039;t healthy or enjoyable. Replace them with better things. Last year I ate at the cafeteria every day. Now I cook a lot more often. I&#039;m happier and healthier as a result.

As far as I&#039;m concerned, feelings are the result of electrical signals and chemical levels in the body. Given that the most sophisticated computer is simpler than an earthworm, I doubt that it&#039;s possible for now. However, I&#039;m not going to deny...

My mom's friend was mad at her daughter and when they went out to dinner the mom wouldn't let the daughter order anything and made her sit there and watch her(the mom) eat as punishment.<br /><br />I think that&#039;s quite cruel. It&#039;s also not a very effective parenting strategy. Studies show that being a dick is not a good way to improve your child&#039;s life.
