Rogue's Stealth and Movement

First Post
Rogue
---------------------------
1. When a rogue uses Hide in Plain Sight, it means he can stay in the midst
of battle with nothing to obstruct line of sight, and as long he remains
still, he can attack without being detected?
2. From your experience, who is best? A rogue that attacks with ranged attacks(shuriken, daggers(thrown) and crossbow), or a rogue doing melle attacks?
What are the benefits he gets doing melee? All I can think is that he would get combat advantage by flanking an enemy.
I ask because I can't stop thinking, that at 1st level, with 24-25 HP and 16 Armor class(+4 frmom Dex + Leather Armor), it would take 2 good hits from an enemy to take him out.
3. When my turn comes, I choose to attack an enemy two squares away from me with Deft Strike, using melee weapon(moving two squares before the attack). Is the attack invalid, since when I declare the kind of attack(melee), I am not in adjacent square?
4. If I use a dagger for a ranged attack, do I lose the dagger or I get it back after the batle ends?
5.
Code:
 ___________________________
|      |      |      |      | 
|  A1  |  A2  |      |      | 
|______|______|______|______|
|      |      |      |      | 
|  B1  |      |      |enemy |
|______|______|______|______|
|      |      ||||||||||||||| 
|  A1  |      |||||||||||||||
|______|______|||  WALL  ||||
|      |      |||||||||||||||
|  B1  |player|||||||||||||||
|______|______|||||||||||||||

I have made a successful stealth check hiding behind a wall(or the enemy just isn't aware of me).
In his turn, the enemy moves around the corner and suddenly sees me. What happens next?

6. I just saw a picture that reflects perfectly(or at least very close) the image I have in mind of how a rogue should look like. If anyone wants to see the picture just check it below(it's the girl on the right). Is from a comic book series called Spooks: Omega Team
