Canon SX10 IS for S5 IS replacement

Canon SX10 IS for S5 IS replacement?
I just got my camera stolen and my parents are getting me a new one for an early christmas gift. I had the Powershot S5 IS and loved it. I travel a lot (am living in Cambodia, like 10 minutes from Angkor Wat...) and love having a big zoom. I was wondering if anyone had other suggestions other than Canon Powershot SX10 IS, or any reason why this might not be the best choice. Thanks!

Those two cameras are quite similar, and both are very nice for a P&S. If you're not ready for a DSLR, I'd say go for it - either one seems like a good choice for you.

If i choose to live in a rural village in the Asian continent how could i do so

If i choose to live in a rural village in the Asian continent how could i do so?
Me and my BF are thinking the Philippines, Laos or Cambodia. The Philippines is the top choice, if we saved a little would we be able to live their for about a year? i am not one who eats much, and we seek little Comfort. We would like to see what it would be like to be living of the land. Is this possible? If so how?? And any tips? (:

You must either have significant prior experience living in these very hazardous conditions and/or have a significant support system should you require assistance. Do you? Remember, you DO/ARE NOT: -speak the language -understand the culture -immunized from pathological, human or environmental hazards -have a real thought-out plan for surviving there I read through some of your other questions here, and so far, the most worrysome aspect of your life you care about is whether your cat can drink tap water or whether your shampoo is gonna "hurt" your hair. Oh dear, you have no idea what awaits you outside of your cocoon in the jungle honey. unimaginable stuff that you cannot run to daddy to. Nature's way of dealing with your unpreparedness is to kill you off one way or another. Think hard and twice.

Yes, you can live here as long as you want... choose a good place so you and your bf will enjoy living here... make sure you have enough money to spend for a year and atleast you must have a filipino friend that will guide you incase of trouble, emergency or even direction. Yeah PH is a good choice! here are some local places that are good to live... Baguio city. Cebu city, Davao City, Palawan, Bohol, Iloilo, Subic, Batangas, Tagaytay, Cagayan de oro city etc. make a research of these places and hopefuly you'll find that suits to your lifestyle. Goodluck!

many filipino's and other asians are experts at living on very little,i seriously doubt you could compete,in the philippines there is very little free food,wild fruit,wild game etc,for sure without some resources you will starve!!!!

the Philippines is a nice country , make sure you do your homework get a safe place !!! Some places are dangerous , Cebu , and Ormoc Leyte , are safe places ,, i would not even think about living in Manila , you can rent a place rents are cheap , in the Philippines its very hot i think you will have to get air conditioning , i also would make sure you have insurance !! its a beautiful country , but people think white people are rich in the Philippines ... Many locals only live on only 75 dollars a month , you can live of the rice and some fruits and fish , i think you could live there for 6000.00 dollars in a hotel for one year in a remote area you can get cheaper .... and buy foods on top of that

The easiest way to get to Angkor Wat from Bangkok is to fly. The flight takes about one hour and Siem Reap airport is only a 20 minute drive from the town. Ceck out Bangkok Airways, for cost of flights from Bangkok to Siem Reap.Flying directly is fairly expensive though for the short one hour flight (currently close to US $150.00) The hard way Angkor Wat from Bangkok is by Trains, Boats, Buses, and Taxis. Trains - the train will take you from Hualompong Station in Bangkok to the Thai-Cambodia Border at Aranyapratet. Unfortunately the old rail line across the border and into Cambodia no longer exists. Boats - once you get to Phnom Phen, Battambang or Sianoukville you can elect to take a boat the rest of the way to Siem Reap. Depending on the time of the year and the amount of rainfall this can be a more or less trying experience. Buses - Big luxury tour buses, Thai government public transport buses, tour company mini-vans, and trucks with benches make up this often hair raising assortment of transportation choices. Taxis - Very comfortable taxis and even more comfortable limousines can take you from Bangkok to the Cambodian border in three hours or so for from 2,500 Baht up. Once you are across the border it becomes another story all together. Cambodian taxis traveling from Poipet to Siem Reap tend to be fairly beat up by the rough roads and heavy loads that they carry. Taxis can be shared with up to six passengers and will cost from US $35 to US $80 dollars for the four hour trip.

Take a plane or a bus. Preferably a plane. It takes an hour and costs about $150. Trains around those parts are unreliable. When I was there this summer the train route to Cambodia was closed down. If you are low on cash take a bus.

Given proper treatment, people with HIV can live long fulfilling lives. The only problem arises when they are not medicated.
2 :
You could die from it tomorrow or at 99. Its like a time bomb except you just dont know when its going to go off.
3 :
There is no specific time frame because it all depends on your immune system. Everyone's body is different and responds differently. Other factors: 1) How long have you been positive without receiving the proper medical care. For exmaple getting tested for HIV 5 to 10 years after you have contracted is different then getting tested as soon as you believe you have been placed at risk of contraction. The sooner you know you are positive the better so that you can start medical care. 2) Another factor is if you are taking antiretroviral medications. 3) Your viral load and your T-Cell count. I have been an HIV counselor and have found that many people learn of their status when they already have AIDS.

where they are ,,,not long ,, maybe 3 to 5 years
5 :
there is really no set time that a person has, being that you went to an orphanage, those children may not have a long life ahead of them, especially if they do not have the money to provide the proper care and medical knees that is needed.
6 :
u can live a long time with HIV Because theres this woman i no she has HIV And she has had it bout 15 years and she's still alive i think if u take your medicine you will be ok
7 :
No one can answer that. I have lived with HIV all my life (I am now 24) and I am in great physical condition (I got super lucky). My doctor sees me living another 30 or more years with no problem. That doesn't mean that something can't/won't go wrong in the next year and I don't die in the next 2 or 3 years from complications of the virus. I had a friend in school who had also had the virus since they were born and they died at 14.
