Help me resize my Indesign document

I've messed up the dimensions of a booklet I designed in Indesign CS3, and I've only realised on getting it ready for the printers. Can I scale the whole document down from B5 to A5?

Help me fix my pixels

This afternoon my mac mini started going a bit weird. The screen is all corrupted. The actual mouse pointer stays solid as does the beachball. But behind is covered in weird pixels.

Is BT blocking sites on me?

I'm with BT for my broadband and over the last few days I've been unable to access some sites in the US. Notably my own web host Mediatemple. Anyone else with BT experiencing problems?

Ever wanted to bring capitalism crashing down but can't get time off work to do it?

We are all outraged, but who has the time to demonstrate their outrage - Introducing McDemos. Think that there should be less Simply Red on the radio, or that there should be shorter bars for midgets? Get Mark Thomas, Tracey moberly and Tony Pletts to demonstrate on your behalf.

Suggestions for our autumn holiday please!

My partner and I went to Italy about three years ago (tuscany) and I fell in love with the place. I just love the hilltop towns, the landscape, the history and the people. We were set to go this Autumn but she just mentioned to me that she might like to go somewhere else instead but has no idea where

Why does Beer not like me?

For some reason, the first few sips of beer give me sharp pains in my shoulder and elbow joints. First noticed it a few years ago and forgot all about it until last weekend as I only drink red wine and the occassional pint of cider now.

Brian Irvine I've just finished this site for an Irish Composer, Brian Irvine. Probably the most media rich site I've made so far. Very plain design, but it's about the content! Plenty of his mp3s are available to listen to and a few nice movies (if you check anything out have a look at the fish movie, I love it!). Looks and plays best if you are using Firefox and have Quicktime installed.

Costly habits. Are you broke again? Don't know where your money is going? Take a look at what you're spending your money on. Chances are, if you're supporting bad habits such as smoking cigarettes, drinking alcohol, or using marijuana or other illicit substances, you're spending quite a chunk of change. If you don't believe it, try out this expense calculator and see how much money you could be spending on something else!
