Help me identify: possibly Judaic (maybe Yiddish) folk tradition of a very small group of individuals for whom God allows the world exist. The point being there's no way of knowing if any individual is one of those chosen few, thus necessitating kindness and decency to all.

Seattle tourism recommendations please. I'm going to spend a weekend in Seattle soon and would like to hear some tourist options both typical and off-the-beaten-path. Thanks.

Does anyone know a way to stop icons from bouncing on the OS X doc? I'm NOT talking about unchecking "animate opening applications" in the dock preferences. That only stops opening-app bounces. I want to stop warning bounces, too. They drive me crazy. Please note that I'm using an INTEL Mac (Leopard). I've only been able to find solutions for PowerPC Macs.

Are movie audiences today too trained to anticipate a plot twist? (OP does not contain spoilers. Future comments might.)

Life-altering experiences. Can you point to a single experience in your life, as a child, which you can define as having contributed to the person you are today? (+)

What are some cover versions of well known songs that have refashioned or rearranged the piece so dramatically as to seem not exactly the covered song, but more of a unique work in and of itself?

I've been loving YouMail for the past year, as a replacement for VerizonWireless' sucky voicemail, but I've only now started playing around with it's individualized greeting/"ditchmail" features. I'm looking to mess with my friends & co-workers minds using this feature.

I’m tired of living in the rock-and-roll past and need a new band. The problem is, nobody’s playing arena rock anymore, as they did in the days of my Def Leppard youth. I’m clueless about the modern rock scene, but I’m hoping there’s a band out there that writes and performs in the vein of the party rock acts like Van Halen. Where is the modern Aerosmith? Can someone suggest a recent band in this style? Or is everything out there just another Green Day clone?

Are there any deals in the smart phone world? Someone told me she had some voice plan plus unlimited internet for ~$40. She had a sidekick. Did I misunderstand?

So I get to go to San Francisco/Berkeley for a week over spring break (rather unexpectedly). If it lives up to even a fraction of the hype (it seems to good to be true!) I hope to move out there after college. I've seen the multitude of threads on what to do there, so I'm here to ask what books relating to San Francisco should I read over the next few months to enhance my enjoyment of the trip?

Recently discovered Explosions in the Sky,
The music fades away in the background after awhile and I can concentrate on doing work. Anybody else have artists that are simillar or music that helps you get your work done and gets you in that zone.
I do not want classical music, sleepy instrumental music and not drum&bass..please.

I've recently moved to San Francisco and experienced my first earthquake. During the very minor quake (so minor I thought it was a truck driving by for a second) I noticed one of my book shelves wobble. So I'm wondering: how can I protect collectibles and such from falling off/breaking in a more serious earthquake?

I've heard my boyfriend mention that he would like a GPS unit several times over the last year, so I am planning on getting him one for the holidays. I don't think he's looked into them in any great detail, and I am boggled by the options.
