How can I paste statistical data to a phpBB formatted web site?

I am responsible for keeping pilot stats for an "Aces High" Squadron. Our Squad web site is a phpBB format. I have attempted to utilize MS Notepad and Wordpad to arrange the data and then copy and paste it as a "posting" on our site. The data pastes just fine and my format remains unaffected when I view a "Post Preview", however, when I actually post the material, all the data points ( arranged in columns with headings) and headings are compressed (for lack of a better term) towards the left margin. In an effort to correct this, I have filled the spaces between headings and the following data with hyphens (ie: Pilot------data point(dp)--------dp---------dp). This scheme has worked, but the names of our participants are of various lengths and include upper and lower case letters as well as numbers. The net result is that when I "hyphen my way over" to a data point I'm perhaps 1/2 a hyphen off from the previous pilot's entry and my columns end up quite wavy on the verticle axis --HELP!

Is this our fault this is happening?

So my friend mary asked my friends brooke who iss your best friend but brooke didn't wannaa tell her because mary would be upset . so basically brooke told her that her best friend was Jodie ( me) . Mary said Jodie and I sed Brooke so after that mary got upset and grumpy saying that we lied to her and stuff soo we jst didnt say anyfing coz we didnt want to start any arguements . soo mary went off with casey and chloee and brooke and i jstt went together . she was then ignoring uss but we didnt care.When i was with brooke we had fun and we didnt miss mary buyy she missed uss . soo 2 days later she started to beg us sayingg we hated her and that we made her go wiv casey and chloe, that we wouldn't like it if that happened to us and making it feel like its our fault soo she kept on sayin tht she misses us. But brooke sent her a text saying I said im not makin u hang rand wit kc, and i didnt say i hated u , ur just makin things up, and i wernt ignorin u! Everytime i tried to tlk to u u ignord me...so.. :/ ... soo did me and brooke do anything wrong .... btw me and brooke are fed up wiv her coz she wants everyfing her way and stuff.... and 2 days ago wen chloe and casey had to go to a school trip at lunch and brooke wasnt at school. mary started following me asking me if i could hang around wiv her and stuff so i said kayy she only did that coz her friends wernt there and when brooke was ill on that day i went to hang out wiv my other mate hannah and she asked us if she could join .... x do you think she was using us . And at the moment we arnt friends wiv her and we dont miss her at all .

How do you solder copper pipe fitting and valves?

I've done a lot of electrical work around my house, but I've never done any plumbing before. The guy at Home Depot told me that I need to heat the fitting, but not the pipe itself. He also said that valves (the new ball type) are easily destroyed by overheating. How do I know when the pipe and fitting is ready to accept the solder? How do I avoid damaging the valve? How do I know how strong to turn up the flame on the propane torch?

What's the difference between an "EF" and a Mistress?

They can be the same things. EF (Emotional Friend) sounds better. With the word "Mistress" you just automatically ume there is an extra-marital ual fling going on. With EF you don't ume that. It leaves open the possibility that it's just platonic. You need to be careful with the words you use in the M&D section, Harry. There are some people with no sense of humor.

Okay N.O.W. Writers. I'm wilting...?

I wish I could join something like that. I don't have much of a support system at home. When I tell my mom about a goal for the week, she doesn't really care. :(

Was anyone else shocked at the images yesterday, of the American woman who had undergone a face transplant?

I agree with you on this and think I would not want to have lived after that. I saw the pictures in the mirror and it was nothing short of grotesque....before and after. Of course life is valuable but it makes you think whether you should survive things like being shot in the face at close range. I think she was very brave. I know it sounds judgemental but It was my first thought.
