"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

I am in the market to buy a new camera to replace one that got stolen. I have narrowed it down to three or four models.

The Canon SX10 IS, The G9, the Ixus(the one I had), or the TX1. Right now I am leaning towards the sx10 because it has 20x optical zoom.

All of your input would be greatly appreciated. THank you.
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

The G9 is now obsoleted by the G10, which I just bought. If you don't mind the slight bulk and cost the G10 is one hell of a camera.

I will settle for either the g9 or g10 model, depending on the price. What is the zoom like on the g series. This is a concern of mine because I would like to take some long distance photo's of animals, ect...

If you truly want good photos, think about getting a DSLR. Small point and shoot cameras are good for very few things. Of course, that depends on how much you are into photography.

If you want a really long telephoto get a D40 and the 70-200 f4L


The G10 is not equipped with a long telephoto lens, but it's awesome as a packing around camera. The WA view is equivalent to a SLR 28mm and with 14 mp there is quite a lot of crop available. The response times for all functions is admirably short and I'm just tickled with it.

It's the first point and shoot I ever used that didn't make me grind my teeth and wish I had my dSLR.
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

The G10 is the next gen of that series, it's the best Canon can make it. What *I* love is that it feels like a camera, not a flashy gadget that makes digital images. It has the knobs and buttons and responsiveness to actually be a serious picture making machine.

Love the dedicated exposure comp wheel, ISO wheel and the speed and clarity of the mode displays. I took it to the Philippines on a recent vacation and it was amazing. First time I never missed my dSLR, seriously.
