Anyone know this checkers/draughts variant?

I learned it from a friend - don't know where it comes from, and it's not mentioned in wikipedia. He claims it is called "monsters". Similar to normal draughts or checkers, but when a piece is captured, instead of being removed from the board, it stays underneath the capturing piece. If you jump over a stack of two or more pieces, you just skim off the top one, which sometimes brings a different coloured piece to the top of the stack. The player whose piece is on the top controls the whole stack. As the game progresses, you get fewer and fewer stacks but they get taller and taller. Game ends when one player has no pieces left (i.e. they are all underneath opponent's pieces). Ever heard of this? I should add, it's a brilliant game - way better than standard draughts!

My Viza Viper gas scooter stops when riding! Help!?

I have a 33cc viza viper gas scooter. I recently got a new gas tank. The Company does not make them anymore so I had to get a different one and had to get my uncle who works at a repair shop to put a wedge or something since it didint fit. When I got the new tank on. It worked GREAT. They put a new racing sprocket in, tuned it up and sprayed something on the chain. I rode my scooter alot after the repair. I probably wasted like 10 miles on gas. Well anyway i started noticing the scooter jerking as if it where stopping, it would still accelerate but at certain times it would make those dying noises.Any scooter owners know when they are out a gas there scooter like jerks and starts slowly dying. well MY scooter started to go that. But its different because my tank was half full. Well it got worse later on, and from this day Every time I start It it dies in 15 seconds or less. I personally think its the fuel lines since they are alot longer and cant reach the carburator. But even if I press the little pump thingy I do it like 20 times so enough gas gets in but its not working I have herd people saying its a air leak but I dont think it is. sorry for the long story. I just want my problem Fixed! HELP!!!! P.S. people PLEASE dont say my scooter is garbage china crap. I just want my scooter fixed okay?

Religious folk: do animals go to hell for commiting (HOMOSEXUAL) activities.?

Animals don't sin. Animals are driven almost entirely on Instinct. Animals don't know right from wrong.

Is my copy of windows 7 home premium legal?

I use to have windows 7 starter when I saw this video on youtube on how to upgrade to premium for free. All you have to to do is copy and paste the license key into the anytime upgrade box and it should work. I did this and to my surprise it did work. I didn't use any hack tools or anything of that sort. I even used the microsoft genuine checker tool and it says i'm running a genuine copy of windows 7. However my conscious tells me i did something wrong. Was this legal or illegal, if so how can I reverse my copy of windows down to the original.

Concerned about possible hoarding?

Ok, 8 years ago i rescued my dog from a local no kill rescue. She is very sweet and i also rescued another little girl who decided to escape and this rescue group found her so i had to go to the place where this woman keep all the dogs. My Little puppy at the time when i got there was stuck in a tiny chicken wire fence with like 7 other dogs and she was matted in poop and the lady told me im lucky shes not keeping my dog, well all the dogs are in nasty poop filled chicken wire "kennels" and they are chained up in these "kennels" and before i saw the deplorable conditions they were in i recommended her to people but she has gotten to the point where she wont let anyone adopt these dogs, I know she has the right to turn people down but its ridiculous and i don know what to do, these animals are suffering, and the local human society wont do anything. Any advice?

Where can I find info about my Epiphone SG G-400 using the serial number on the back of the headstock?

The serial is 1007181138. I've used that on-line serial checker site and it doesn't recognize it. I've checked Epiphones site as well, and that's no help. The weird thing is, I bought it brand new from an authorized Gibson dealer. Whats going on with my guitar?

Is it absolutely nescessary to set timing if the main crank has not been moved?

I have a 1987 Nissan pickup with a 2.4 liter z24i engine. I am putting on a new cylinder head because the old one was warped. Prior to dissasembly I marked the timing chain and the cam sprocket so that I could preserve my correct timing, and immobalized the chain by jamming a wooden wedge so that the chain was locked against the tensioners. ( I had hoped I was only going to be swapping out a head gasket) So the main crank and the timing chain have been immobile this whole time. Obviously the valve positioning has been altered since I have a new head. BUT it occurs to me that since the camshaft has a knockpin that fits into the only whole on the cam sprocket, will not the valvetrain return to it's original position once I align the marks I made on the cam sprocket and the timing chain? If so this would save me a LOT of labor since I would not need to remove the timing belt cover to re-establish the correct timing. Am I correct?
