i just downloaded starwars kotor2 and it has 4 discs with 2 files each. one is .bin and one is .cue ... my knowledgable friend says the .cue is pointless. but anyway my comp wants to open the files with my media player (VLC) and that does nothing for me. i know somehow daemon tools should be involved in the process . how do i install and run this game?

thanks for any and all assistance provided.

I've been thinking a a lot as of late about converting to Buddhism.I identify strongly with the set of beliefs and guidelines and ideals they claim they represent. However, growing up in a Christian home and being raised in a Christian church i feel has hindered my ability to grasp certain concepts and also i have a few questions of my own:
For starters, Buddha talks about entering nirvana and leaving the cycle of life and death. He also mentions that our strongest desires get passed on through reincarnation. Now, if to enter nirvana is to abandon all desires, then nothing would remain of you, and entering nirvana merely ends the cycle of life and death....does this mean nirvana is infinite death? This is a hard concept for me to wrap my head around because as a Christian i was taught that all life is infinite and no matter what you live forever, and heaven is just the better of two places to live forever in. Its difficult for me to want to pursue something where the ultimate result is permanent death. Am i totally wrong in my assumptions?
Also, I know Buddha avoided questions like these choosing instead "Noble Silence" but does the Buddhist community take any sort of stand as far as creation? As far as i understand Buddhists in general do not believe in a God. ( i emphasize the capital G because i know some Buddhists see buddha as a savior rather than a teacher , also understand there are at least 2 major sects in buddhism and that there may be multiple or conflicting answers to this question.)
I would appreciate any kind of feed back that anyone can give on this matter. Thanks for your help.

i was wondering how much average things cost in japan as opposed to the us. How much do clothes cost in japan? How much does american clothing sell for in japan? What american brands sell for the most?


anybody know?

Vitamin B-17, found in peach and apricot seeds, contain cyanide. Cyanide is a poison but combined with the other stuff in the seeds it makes it perfectly ok. The only things that will separate the cyanide from the seeds and return it to a poisonous state are the proteins that surround cancer cells. Effectively, the cancer cells release the cyanide on them selves and are selectively destroyed.


If this is even remotely true, and even if it is only marginally helpful to cancer patients...wouldn't you think this would be a big deal?


Why is the FDA shutting down websites and stores that sell apricot seeds as an alternative method for cancer treatment?
