I wish the manufacturers start making them once again. i searched the whole Market, without success.

Oh yeah, another detail: Urasawa says that the pen has "great balance".

Could you recommend a good fountain pen to me? I'd like to buy a good fountain pen. But I'm not in a high position in my company, so it won't be for signing a contract, etc. Fountain pens with thick writing are not recommendable to me, I guess. I'd like to practise hand-writing, keep a diary, write letters, etc. Not for decorating the pocket of my shirt with expensive fountain pens like some snobbish colleagues around me. And I don't know a lot about fountain pens. Some people say that fountain pens have some charm that ball-point pens don't have. What kind of fountain pen would be suitable for me? I know that there are many well-known manufacturers of fountain pens such as Mont Blanc, S.T. Dupont, Waterman, Parker, etc.

BIOS pen drive update wont boot when booting Notebook (MSI EX600) can anyone help? I've been wanting to update my BIOS for awhile now. I downloaded the BIOS update of my manufacturers site (MSI, Micro Star International) which is a USB drive flash utility. I extracted the files of the Winrarred BIOS update to the root of my empty USB flash drive. On the site they also have a manual to explain how to install the BIOS update. You need to reboot, and boot the notebook from the USB drive. I put the settings of my boot to ''USB drive H:'' and saved and exited. When it started to boot, I got a Small text on the screen and it quickly disappears (Something saying like PEN DRIVE or something). After that the Notebook boots how it normally should, without booting the USB drive in order for me to update my BIOS. Can anyone help me fix my problem? Some Info: My notebook is an MSI EX600 with BIOS version 5.09. (I want to update to 7.09) BIOS driver site for my notebook: http://global.msi.eu/index.php?func=downloaddetail&type=bios&maincat_no=135&prod_no=1200

What USB pens come with password protect software? I'm looking for a USB pen with pre-installed security software that would stop anyone just plugging in & accessing my info from the device. I had one a while back which had a small password program on it, which would ask you for it before letting you see the files etc. Any websites who manufacturer these devices with updatable programs. I'm not looking for 3rd party software as most pens today come with pre-installed software on them. Thanks in advance.

How does one obtain drug rep pens legally, besides ebay? Can you contact drug manufacturers personally to obtain these pens, or are there places where you can contact drug representatives to buy directly? I ask because I love many of the pens that I write with at medical offices, and would like some for personal use.... although I am not sure which avenues are possible, or even legal. I would rather not purchase from ebay, as you're never sure how the items were obtained. I'd hope to not line the pockets of someone who stole from a representative or office. Thanks for your responses! I was going to add that I wasn't interested in stealing the pens, although figured that was a given.... though the answer has already been stated... very quickly, I might add. :) Would rather buy than steal! I contacted GSK, and they sent me a response... basically saying their "promotional items" are limited in number and restricted to healthcare professional use. I would imagine they would share one item. Well, I suppose a million items is limited, and I don't deserve one. ;)

A Very Particular Pen? There's a small but famous stationary manufacturer in Japan called Sun-Star Stationary. It's based out of Tokyo. A couple years ago I purchased a pen from the bookstore at my College. It's a multi-pen (3 pen colours and 1 pencil, in one pen barrel) It's the best pen I've ever had and I'm desperately seeking another one as this one I suspect will run out of ink shortly. I've been searching online for several hours, and I'm normally really good at being able to find whatever I want online. I know it may sound trivial, but this is a the best pen I've ever had, and as a writer and journalist, it's important that I get another... hell I'd buy a whole box of them if I could. Can anyone help me find these pens? They're called "Sun-Star: Slick Colors - Flavor". If there's anyone from Tokyo who can pick some up, I'd be willing to completely reimburse you 130% of cost, + shipping. Or if there's somewhere online I can get them please let me know. Thanks!

Chinese shamelessly copy designs and products of the World? The chinese shamelessly pick up western designs of anything from pens to trains to cars and planes and copy it right down to the last screw. The quality is pathetic, the finishing is bad and yet we say the Chinese are the most effecient manufacturers in the world - is it right to say that ? fishball - you get it wrong. I am speaking about duplicating products - PIRACY !! And think about millions spent by the West in research, thinking safety, reliability - all reduced to a cheap duplicate

Why is it that on the top cap of the urinal it says "Delany Flushboy - 'Turn to Silence'"? There are very few things to look at while you are standing at the urinal, especially if you adhere to the rules of men's restroom etiquette. So one finds himself pondering the wall tile pattern, the pen scribbles in the grout, the ceiling, or the optimal stream pattern to reduce splash. These are, for the most part, rather dull and non-upsetting things to think about while doing your business. So why, WHY, must the manufacturers for urinal connectivity pipes put such an unusual statement on the very place where your gaze is most likely to fall? What does it mean? What are they asking to turn, and why would it be loose? If loose, would it make a lot of noise? Wouldn't it leak all over the place? I can't take it anymore!

How to Prevent Fading autographs? I have many autographed baseballs from going to minor league baseball games. The autographs are on New York Penn League baseballs and are on balls which were used during the games. Most of the autographs before 2002 look fine but after 2002 I am having trouble with the signatures fading. The ink from the pen is becoming fat and spreading out on the balls and is becoming faint. I have contacted the manufacturers of the baseballs and have been told that the baseballs have been made from the same ingredients the past 10 years. I have tried having a brand new, unused ball signed but am still having the same problem with the signature fading. Does anyone know what is causing the autographs to disappear and how this can be prevented? Many of the signatures are of players who have made it to the majors and may even be in the Hall of Fame someday. I keep all of the baseball in a cool, dark place out of the sun light and have tried leaving something in the area to take moisture out of the air but the ink keeps fading. Thanks for your input.

Why does Mrs. Obama blame food companies instead of parents for child obesity? ...doesn't make sense that's like saying "sorry officer, it's not my fault for speeding, it's the manufacturers fault for making the car so fast" or "sorry teacher, I didn't mean to wright the wrong answer, my pen messed up"

Manufacturing? Take the example of a pen drive. Obviously there is one person or a group that invented it. But there are many manufacturers out there producing pen drives.

where could I get a small portable modern version of a overhead projector? My hobby is handpainting bisque ware then glazing and kiln firing the finished plate.What would make my life easier is a machine which would scan the drawing or picture and then like an overhead projector transfer the image onto a bisque plate for me to copy I'd want the machine to store the image for later use and be able to either enlarge it or reduce it in size At present I copy the image using a pencil and tracing paper then use a felt tip pen to go over the pencil again, the felt tip "leaks" through and leaves the design on the plate I then go over the felt tip with a black underglaze pen and finally paint the outlined design in This is very time consuming and a machine which would enable me to get rid of the tracing paper and simply shine the image for me to outline with the underglaze pen would be a big help.Does such a machine exist and what's the manufacturers email address Thank you

Does anyone know of an "off the self" computer generated calligraphy plotter system? If one looks up calligraphy services on the net "machine calligraphy" is an option one runs across. While many of these services are based on calligraphy fonts and a laser printer, some are based on a modified pen-plotter system, where the computer literally moves the a nibbed pen in the same way that a human calligrapher would. Can anyone name and point out creators/manufacturers of such a plotter system and software, or are most/all of these systems home creations of the companies that provide such services?

Why can't US income taxrates be 55% like in Europe? If only taxes were raised another 20-30 percentage points higher? We could have a passenger rail train going from New York to San Francisco in 7 hours across the Great Plains and the Rockies. This would create jobs in building the railway. AND unemployed auto manufacturers in the motor city would be able to continue living in the midwest and commute by high-speech rail every morning and evening to cities hundreds of miles away! Why can't America be a more progressive country, raise taxes higher like FDR did, and build high-speed passenger rail trains to save fuel and make the USA more commutable for everybody? We could also have affordable universal healthcare and government subsidized airline travel and public housing facilities for people to share. The public housing facilities would be like the dorm residence halls at college universities with dry erase pen boards on each door across the hall. America has lots of potential, if only taxes were higher. whoops I meant high-speed rails, not high-speech. I Randall E. The broken window fallacy does not apply here! Because the high-speed rail will be a benefactor to ALL parties including the inflicted party, which in this case is the taxpayer. The railroad is serving everybody's community.

How much I should price my Washer/Dryer set? Pictures included...HELP PLEASE! It won't take long to answer!!!! I have a 3 1/2 year old Whirlpool Imperial Series Washer/Dryer set. I purchased it brand new and I'm the only owner. (I was a college student living in an apartment and now I'm back home with my mom so it's no longer needed since she has a set already) The manufacturers warranty and the extended warranty I purchased with it is up, so there is no warranty. It's in perfect working condition the only "problem" is there is a stain (that didn't affect my clothes while I was using it) in the dryer from me having left a pen in my pants. It is a super capacity plus (if that means anything) and both are electric. Washer is top loader and dryer is front loader. I spent $800 for the set when I purchased it. I'm posting it on Craig's List and I want to know what a fair price would be...although I don't want to cut myself short either. I had a price and someone said that it was a bit high, so can you help me out please? I don't want to post the price because I don't want to sway any answers.

Do you think that it is very possible for the United States to fall apart and cease to exist like the USSR? The Enron scandal, failing insurance companies, the spreading of expensive military forces ALL OVER THE WORLD, sending billions of dollars , (borrowed dollars at that) all over the world to help other countries, the big corporations sending as many manufacturing jobs to China, Vietnam, Japan, Mexico as they can which put your next door neighbor and you put of work .....Is not this a recipe for imminent failure? Returning veterans from Iraq and Afghanistan plus the Vietnam Vets are treated as the "black sheep" when it comes to health care and mental help. Many of the homeless are war veterans. I, like them was brainwashed to feel superior to all others wen in fact I was a pawn on the chess board for the Military Industrial Complex, Oil Companies, and the Corporations that see dollar signs in going to war. PEOPLE ARE GETTING RICH FROM THE SALE OF WEAPONS BUT ARE YOU ARE OR YOUR FAMILY ONE OF THEM? For me, my family is made of foot Soldiers, Sailors and Marines, PLUS the working poor who get a BIG piece of their paycheck eaten each week to pay for the salaries of the "Promise anything, do nothing" people in the White-house and House of so-called "Representatives" and Senate. Does what they do Represent your wishes or does it represent the banks, Chinese manufacturers, and Insurance companies? Did not our "Representatives" allow the mortgage companies and Insurance companies and GW Bush and Dick Chenny to do what they have done? Will you be surprised to see a President in the next year come on TV and say that the Great United States of America will disband in 24 hours and the Congress will be dismissed? That every state will be one it's own and a separate country? The greed of American Corporations WILL have even more dire economic consequences. What products on Walmart, Kmart, Sears, Dollar General, Dollar Store shelves are made in America? Name one other than the chicken, some meat and a few vegetables. Look at the labels in your shoes and all your clothes, on your TV on your ball point pen, kids toys etc and say with a straight face that our economy is sound.

I do know that if I have to sell it for less than $400, I'm just going to keep it, because it just wouldn't be worth it in the end.

Who makes this pink pen? I used to have this pen that wrote in florescent pink ink. I used it to proofread papers all the time, and it was kind of a cute trademark. A few months ago, I lost it. The pen had no brand name on the outside, but the pen itself was pink too. Has anyone, by chance, seen these before and can tell me who the manufacturer is? They were really cute and I want another one! Thanks!

Which ones are better fountain pens? S.T. Dupont or Pelikan? I usually write letters or keep a diary with an S.T. Dupont fountain pen, which I bought at a fairly high price. And its outer design is very satisfactory. But I sometimes wonder if I had a smart choice at the time. Generally speaking, S.T. Dupont is well known as a manufacturer of luxurious lighters or accessories, not as a manufacturer of writing instruments. I also have S.T. Dupont belts and cufflinks. On the other hand, Montblanc, Parker, Lamy, Pelikan, Waterman, Cross etc are regarded as famous companies of writing instruments. I often clean the nib of my fountain pen with slightly warm water, to help its ink flow without running dry. But I sometimes find its ink doesn't flow, in the act of writing letters. What about Pelikan fountain pens? Many people say that Pelikan fountain pens are not as expensive as S.T. Dupont pens, but that they are very high-quality pens are are popular amongst fountain pen lovers.

Is this the same as solid flame red, AJ4 or are they 2 different colours? The car is a micra 2005, in solid red, trim type S. Thanks

How would you handle airport security???? I say the following rules should be put in place: 1. Only the following things can be carried onto plane: a. Laptop (no power cord as that can be used as weapon). b. Paper Work/Books (No pens/pencils) c. Purse with ONLY ID/Credit Cards and Money d. Wallet with ONNLY ID/Credit Cards and Money e. Only absolutely necessary medication with a doctors note and it must be handed over to the stewardes and can only be given by them as directed on the bottle. f. Baby Diapers (No wipes as they contain liquid), can use soft tissue. g. Baby Formula, only enough for the length of the flight and must be in a sealed from the manufacturer container. No exceptions to these rules. Everything else must be checked. All of the food and beverage brought on board by the airlines must go through stringent testing and the cargo as well as checked bags. Thoughts? There is no reason you need anything else while on the plane.

Generic video on Win 2000? I have recently installed Windows 2000 onto a project computer. Everything works great except for the video. I can only get it to display in 16 colors, and one size/resolution (800 x 600). It does not have a special video card; only the video out port for the monitor . (it was an older tower that my work was not using - 900 mhz Pent 4 with 30 gig HD. I reformatted the HD, and this is where I am). Should I get better graphics with the basic video, is there a driver (I do not have a "generic" as a choice in the install wizard, just manufacturers and respected models - I do not know what this has), or do I need a video card for the PCI slot? Should I just reinstall 200, starting from scratch?

Atheist: Does God exist? Normally, when I meet an atheist, the first thing I like to do is to congratulate him and say, " My special congratulations to you", because most of the people who believe in God are doing blind belief - he is a Christian, because his father is a Christian; he is a Hindu, because his father is a Hindu; the majority of the people in the world are blindly following the religion of their fathers. An atheist, on the other hand, even though he may belong to a religious family, uses his intellect to deny the existence of God; what ever concept or qualities of God he may have learnt in his religion may not seem to be logical to him. My Muslim brothers may question me, "Zakir, why are you congratulating an atheist?" The reason that I am congratulating an atheist is because he agrees with the first part of the Shahada i.e. the Islamic Creed, ‘La ilaaha’ - meaning ‘there is no God’. So half my job is already done; now the only part left is ‘il lallah’ i.e. ‘BUT ALLAH’ which I shall do Insha Allah. With others (who are not atheists) I have to first remove from their minds the wrong concept of God they may have and then put the correct concept of one true God. Logical Concept of God My first question to the atheist will be: "What is the definition of God?" For a person to say there is no God, he should know what is the meaning of God. If I hold a book and say that ‘this is a pen’, for the opposite person to say, ‘it is not a pen’, he should know what is the definition of a pen, even if he does not know nor is able to recognise or identify the object I am holding in my hand. For him to say this is not a pen, he should at least know what a pen means. Similarly for an atheist to say ‘there is no God’, he should at least know the concept of God. His concept of God would be derived from the surroundings in which he lives. The god that a large number of people worship has got human qualities - therefore he does not believe in such a god. Similarly a Muslim too does not and should not believe in such false gods. If a non-Muslim believes that Islam is a merciless religion with something to do with terrorism; a religion which does not give rights to women; a religion which contradicts science; in his limited sense that non-Muslim is correct to reject such Islam. The problem is he has a wrong picture of Islam. Even I reject such a false picture of Islam, but at the same time, it becomes my duty as a Muslim to present the correct picture of Islam to that non-Muslim i.e. Islam is a merciful religion, it gives equal rights to the women, it is not incompatible with logic, reason and science; if I present the correct facts about Islam, that non-Muslim may Inshallah accept Islam. Similarly the atheist rejects the false gods and the duty of every Muslim is to present the correct concept of God which he shall Insha Allah not refuse. The methods of proving the existence of God with usage of the material provided in the ‘Concept of God in Islam’ to an atheist may satisfy some but not all. Many atheists demand a scientific proof for the existence of God. I agree that today is the age of science and technology. Let us use scientific knowledge to kill two birds with one stone, i.e. to prove the existence of God and simultaneously prove that the Qur’an is a revelation of God. If a new object or a machine, which no one in the world has ever seen or heard of before, is shown to an atheist or any person and then a question is asked, " Who is the first person who will be able to provide details of the mechanism of this unknown object? After little bit of thinking, he will reply, ‘the creator of that object.’ Some may say ‘the producer’ while others may say ‘the manufacturer.’ What ever answer the person gives, keep it in your mind, the answer will always be either the creator, the producer, the manufacturer or some what of the same meaning, i.e. the person who has made it or created it. Don’t grapple with words, whatever answer he gives, the meaning will be same, therefore accept it.

Proof of the Existence of God.........? I asked a question at http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20080926145532AA8XQNK&r=w I am still not satisfied... Atheists people actually don't know what the purpose of life means.. Anyways, here I am having the proof of God's existence(by Dr.Zakir Naik) and I hope and humbly requests the atheists to plz read all I had written. CONGRATULATING AN ATHEIST Normally, when I meet an atheist, the first thing I like to do is to congratulate him and say, " My special congratulations to you", because most of the people who believe in God are doing blind belief - he is a Christian, because his father is a Christian; he is a Hindu, because his father is a Hindu; the majority of the people in the world are blindly following the religion of their fathers.

SCIENTIFIC FACTS MENTIONED IN THE QUR’AN: for details on this subject please refer to my book, ‘THE QUR’AN AND MODERN SCIENCE – COMPATIBLE OR INCOMPATIBLE? THEORY OF PROBABILITY In mathematics there is a theory known as ‘Theory of Probability’. If you have two options, out of which one is right, and one is wrong, the chances that you will chose the right one is half, i.e. one out of the two will be correct. You have 50% chances of being correct. Similarly if you to I feel that none of the answerer had actually read the whole stuff.. Its really sad!! Sally JM! We are not here to critisize Dr. Zakir or Islam. My dear read the stuff again with a +ive point of u. You will understand the logic behind Dr. Zakir's Answer's. I find every answer of Dr, Zakir completely logical n majority of the people also thinks the same. I feel the problem is people don't want to accept the reality. They don't want to go deep into the realities. Just wants a lovely life, having no concern for others and if there is a sort of care then it is also infinitely small.

Is there anyone hoping to run small busineses with China? I am a chinese native and understand local market very much. there are a lot of small things produced in China with very low labor cost, like jewelry, rings, man-made germ, cups, pens, not-books, mp3, mp4 and others. Of course, I know some local manufacturers who wanna all kinds of small things according to your requirement. I am therefore wondering whether there is anybody who wants to run trading or other businesses with me. I can provide the resources of suppliers in china and some funds, and you can provide the resouces of buyes oversea and of course some funds. if anybody interests this opportunity, pls feel free to connect me by email wangying117@yahoo.com.cn and we can have a deep talk about this idea.

Joke: Advertising Campaigns Gone Bad? 1. The Dairy Association's huge success with the campaign "Got Milk?" prompted them to expand advertising to Mexico. It was soon brought to their attention the Spanish translation read "Are you lactating?" 2. Coors put its slogan, "Turn it loose," into Spanish, where it was read as "Suffer from diarrhea". 3. Scandinavian vacuum manufacturer Electrolux used the following in an American campaign: "Nothing sucks like an Electrolux". 4. Clairol introduced the "Mist Stick", a curling iron, into German only to find out that "mist" is slang for manure. Not too many people had use for the manure stick". 5. When Gerber started selling baby food in Africa, they used the same packaging as in the US, with the smiling baby on the label. Later they learned that in Africa, companies routinely put pictures on the label of what's inside, since many people can't read. 6. Colgate introduced a toothpaste in France called Cue, the name of a notorious porno magazine. 7. An American T-shirt maker in Miami printed shirts for the Spanish market which promoted the Pope's visit. Instead of "I saw the Pope" (el Papa), the shirts read "I saw the potato" (la papa). 10. Frank Perdue's chicken slogan, "it takes a strong man to make a tender chicken" was translated into Spanish as "it takes an aroused man to make a chicken affectionate". 11. When Parker Pen marketed a ball-point pen in Mexico, its ads were supposed to have read, "it won't leak in your pocket and embarrass you". Instead, the company thought that the word "embarazar" (to impregnate) meant to embarrass, so the ad read: "It won't leak in your pocket and make you pregnant".

How To Unlock Computer Case - Legitimate Reason? There is an older lady that lives in the apartment above me. She has asked me to install a network card (no available usb ports). The metal case has a tumbler cam 1 pin lock on the removable side panel. The computer was given to her, it is older and a local custom build, so there is no manufacturer to contact. When it was given to her, a key did not come with it. I have removed the bezel to see if I could detach it via the front, but no way to get past that area either. I have tried the Bic pen cap trick, it is not a 7 pin lock, I don't have any lock-picking tools, wiggled a paper clip in the pin hole, I have googled for a solution as well, and youtubed as well, but I cannot find any way to unlock this lock. I would like to be able to remove this panel without destroying it. My question is: How can I open this lock? Please only answer if you are familiar with how to do this. Thank you in advance. See my illustration of the panel setup at http://www.neospyce.com/panellock.gif Hey Gene M! Super suggestion! Worked like a charm. Thank you very much. I took the locking tab off, so it is aesthetically unchanged.

Where can I find water-soluble WHITE printing ink? Or a printing company? I want to print white lines on dark fabric for the purposes of embroidery--specifically sashiko quilting. The lines need to be water soluble--that is, the ink should wash out completely in one or a few washes. I doubt that I'll be able to find a solution I can do at home, so I think I may need the name of a printing company that can do this--or the manufacturer of an ink that is appropriate for this. I know there are pens and chalk markers available for doing what I'm trying to do, but I want to be able to produce these designs on a semi-large scale, and drawing each one individually is not feasible, so I need an automatic solution. Any ideas?

USB drive not recognised? Hi, I've a Kingston 1GB pen drive. Recently when I inserted in my friend's PC, it stopped working and now it is not recognized by Windows. All the USB drives that are inserted in that port meet the same fate. It can't be formatted as its not shown in My Computer or even Disk Management. How should I get it to work again? Its not in warranty so I can't go back to the manufacturer. Yeah, I do plug-in and plug-out properly. The point to focus is that all the fkash drives inserted in that port have been rendered useless. They don't appear in any kind of partition manager or any other software. What to do now ?

Designing T-Shirts, Getting Inspired? So business-wise, I'm pretty set for starting my own t-shirt business. I've found a manufacturer, screen printing company, web hosting and domain, and gotten a loan out for all initial expenses. The hard part is actually coming up with a theme and designs for my business. I'm going to be using vector designs that I make on Adobe Illustrator, but I'm just sitting here completely stuck as to what I should make. My t-shirts will be targeted towards teenagers and young adults obviously, so I don't want cheesy designs. I guess what I'm asking is how do you get inspired? What are some design tips you might have for me since I'm technically still a beginner? I was going to go buy one of those stylus pen mouses for my laptop so I could draw the designs directly onto my computer. Would that be a good idea? Any advice for me?
