Inventing an assistive device, any requests?

What would help me the most is to get some feedback from anyone who has a disability that is limited in participating in daily activities. I am in an assistive technology course and our assignment is to invent a device that would bridge that gap. My goal is to be able to take your requests and design something that would be specific to your needs. It can be any disability and any request that is sincere. Just to get an idea of what I am trying to do here's an example that has already been done. A man who was an avid bowler had a spinal cord injury which caused limited function of the muscles in his hands. He has a good amount of weakness but still could move his hands pretty good. Someone designed a ramp that could be used from sitting in his wheelchair. He positions it just in place and has his teammate hold it in place by the handles installed at the top. The ball was positioned at the top of the ramp and he would use his hands to propel it down the ramp. He would make strike after strike! It was amazing to see this and it has really motivated me to learn other areas of need. Would love to hear from you!

Is it just me or would you be annoyed to?

Ok I am visiting my aunt and she is driving me insane...... Like I have problems making friends at school, and some kids make fun of me, but I have just accepted that at least I have one friend and that I'm different...... But she gives me these lectures everyday that last at least an hour saying I have a shield around me and she don't blame the kids for making fun of me because the way I act and I told her that I didn't want to hang around a whole bunch of buttheads and she hollered at me saying Don't you dare judge those kids! And I try to tell her I'm fine but she comes up with these crazy ideas and dramatizes everything and she even said I need a phyciatrist...... If it's not that, she goes on about how my mom raises me wrong and how she don't cook right and how she needs to do this or that..... It isn't any of her bussiness! She is constantly shoving things down my throat, griping at me and hollering.... To the point to where I almost want to go home..... Like yesterday she said all of my family was big and we sjhould eat different things...... I got mad and so she screamed at me! Wouldn't you get mad?

Is there a way to repair my ac adapter?

Input is 120v, Output is 9v. Someone was running across the room and snapped the cord in half. I could probably strip the plastic insulation and twist the wires back together. It snapped close to where the "black box" is. The black box part plugs directly into the wall. I was trying to strip the plastic part off, when I saw a spark when I exposed the wires. So I'm assuming there is still a charge inside the "black box". So, I left it alone. Is this not a safe thing to do? Should I assume there is still a lot of electricity inside of it? This is an AC adapter for a keyboard.

How do I get started in making crafts a hobby?

I have always been very creative and I don't currently have any real hobbies. I don't have tons of time and money to spend on it though and can't be running to the craft store a lot because I don't have a license yet. Also, I want my crafts to look more victorian/chic, modern/hip than country. I always wanted to make a wreath. I love seasonal wreaths and feminine looking ones that really make a statement. I saw some on the internet that were out of this world amazing but they were two thousand bucks! What do I need to make a wreath? How hard will it be and how much time will it take? And how much will it cost to make a wreath that looks like the ones that sell for thousands of bucks? Also, what supplies will I need to buy and where do you recommend buying them, i.e. Hobby Lobby, Jo Annes, Michael's? I also welcome any tips you may have or any other craft ideas you would recommend me to start that you consider fun. The only thing I won't be interested in is crotching. THANKS SO MUCH FOR YOUR ANSWERS

My wife has issues, and i don't know what to do?

My wife has been in (as far as she tells me) 2 bad relationships. She has a child with one who adore very much, and he abandoned her. The other was mentally abusive to her and cheated. I've know my wife for 6 years before we married and seen the effects of both. Before we dated she was fine, but no sooner than i moved in she became controlling, stopping me from having company cause it's "her" house, not being able to leave and see friends and severing all contact with my ex's.and other females i know (we left on mutual terms and are still friends nothing else) In the time we've been married she's lied to me about 2 very big things and i forgave her. Her thing now is to badger me with questions about if i someone texts me or if i got any phone calls. She treats me more like her child than her husband. she works anywhere from 8-16 hours a day and takes it out on me. I am a stay at home dad to our daughter. She always gripes about paying for everything but yet neve lets me leave the house to look for work, always insisting i'll get a job if i apply online. I've been doing it over a year now and no job. She wants to know about all the females i talk to and the insecurity is driving me insane. I understand she has problems from the past but she can't blame for them. I don't know what to do. please help, its my first marriage and i don't wanna be a statistic but this is wearing on me emotionally and physically. Thank you for your time.

Retraining as a teacher...Help?

Are you in the UK ? If so you need to be a graduate, only FE colleges will accept people as lecturers (not teachers) without QTS status. They quite often like people to have industry experience and then train for their QTS on the job. For primary though you will have to do the conventional 4 year route - either a 4 year B Ed or a 3 year degree in a relevant subject and a 1 year PGCE. Any other routes are very rare and the present government is slashing funding for education so school are not offering training placements in the way they did under Labour (schools had to partly fund this themselves and the funds just aren't there anymore).

How common was it for men to have sex before marriage in the Victorian Era?

I know that women were not considered 'as good' or whatever if they had sex before marriage, but what about men? Was it common for men to have sex before marriage? Who would they have sex with? Prostitutes? Or were men often times virgins before marriage as well?

Recommendations for fiction books set in Victorian era?

The Tea Rose by Jennifer Donnely is amazing and fits your specifications. There's a lot of romance in it, although I would not classify it as a downright romance novel. Also, it's a modern novel and very easy to read and entertaining.

Why would a co-worker suddenly be not buddy buddy anymore and be polite but not the same?

i have a coworker friend that i've been friends with for a few years. i noticed a marked diff the last few months where she suddenly stopped iming and doesn't initiate any contact (emails, ims) anymore. we used to share alot (work stuff and gripes) and now it's odd because she used to im me everyday and be all friendly and now she never im's me and always me initiating which i don't do too much because obviously i don't want to bother her if she doesn't want to be friendly anymore. we don't hang outside the office too much it's more of an office friendship but just wondering if anyone else has experienced this. i did ask her awhile back if everything was ok and she said oh sure and that's she's been busy but i can tell it's more than that but whatever it is she's not going to fess up to. frustrating!

Charles Dickens been a Christian himself understood that death is the final exit?

Can I point out that "A Christmas Caron" is in fact a novel, and not a statement of faith? For Dickens' literary purpose it suited to present the death of Scrooge as a finality. That no more shows that Dickens disbelieved in an afterlife than his having Tiny Tim say "God bless us, every one" shows that Dickens is a theist.

Parents won't take me to doctor?

Okay, I have an ear infection & all I want to do is go to the doctor & get some antibiotics or something to get rid of it. I have pretty high pain tolerance so I can deal with the pain, for now, but I want to get some medicine to get rid of it before it gets really bad. My little sister is a hypochondriac, (really she is, one time my uncle had to get tested for prostate cancer & then my sister ran around crying that she had it) they take her to the doctor without saying anything usually. Though for me it's another story, I hardly ever complain of pain & I hate to take medicine unless necessary so if I ask to go to the doctor it's because I really need to go but whenever I ask they always gripe & complain about it & try to put it off until I either scream at them or am on my knees begging to go. Why do they do this to me? I would never do that to my child.

What should I do? Help?

I think that what you should do is finish your studies not throw everything to the garbage; you never now what the future can give you, so maybe you'll find something that you like and work on that, but you should start making something NOW, not leave it for "later". You should not waste what your parents are giving you, it's better than starting from zero. Perhaps you are having some problems now, but what would life be without problems? you can deal with them and you'll soon realize that the problems are not as big they they once seemed.

My 4 month baby have a lot of gas, he vomits and farts a lot?

Hi. I have a 4 month old baby that is having trouble with gases. I took him to the doctor twice but he keep sending me to give him gripe and Ovol for his gases. i get the point that he is full of gases even though the doctor thinks i dont take his gases out after each feeding but i do and not just one gas comes out. After he burps he vomits and now is all the time and his farts smell REALLY bad and i dont know what to do anymore since i am always changing his clothes and my clothes and i am scare to let someone hold him because he will vomit on them. i dont see this normal and maybe someone out there could help me with some experience. i told the dr if it could be that he is tolerante to lactose but he said that i am breastfeeding and it doesnt cause babies to be tolerant to lactose. i am so confused and worry about my son because i feel that he is in pain. also i fart too and the smell is same as the baby. so maybe is somenthing i have or somenthingi am eating?. i stop drinking milk for a while thinking that it will help but no and the only think that its left to change is the bread i eat. help!

I never get any sleep, my 3 week old grunts all night?

What is wrong with her? I think she is gassy. This has been going on for a week and since I co-sleep with her I do not sleep all night long. My husband works nights and he lets me sleep for 2 hours when he gets home but that is all I am getting. She is formula fed now :( The breastfeeding did not work. Please don't give me hell about it we tried with many lactation consultants. She just couldn't latch. I pumped for 2 weeks but I just wasn't getting enough to feed her. We changed her formula, got her new bottles for colic, tried gripe water, give her water between feedings, I burp her very often with each bottle, and sit her up when she is eating. Is there anything else I can do? Is she grunting because of gas? Will it just take her a while to get used to the formula?

Why do some think that Obama will win re-election?

Because liberals outnumbered conservatives. And if Obama grants amnesty to the illegals, game's over. I think there are 25 to 30 millions illegals in this country, not the 12 millions that they are guessing. We are in trouble from here on out, trust me.

Why does the Republican party have a defeated attitude toward the stimulus legislation?

they're pathological, reptilian brained dinosaurs, that's why. They'll say or do ANYTHING to get their way no matter what it is. Over-compensating perhaps. Don't confuse them with reason.

Xbox color messed up during movies?

It is a very old TV but it only does this when i play movies on the xbox.

Have I lost my marbles?

I am in love with the Victorian era, and so I have some Victorian ensembles I like to prance around my house and yard wearing. I sometimes do it for hours and get quite into it. For the first time yesterday, I felt that if I saw someone I realized that they wouldn't understand what I was doing, and that I couldn't wave to my neighbors when I saw them because they would think me to be crazy. I suppose I just got so involved in my game I had to remind myself of reality.

Why are us Australians always so #$%# negative and always complaining about stuff?

About 97% of questions I see on here are from ranting, raving, noisy, complaining people with some minor gripe about the weather, or spiders, or people that arrived on a boat, or bad manners at the salad bar, or bogans, or public transport, traffic james, birds, spiders, sour milk,etc., why can we not be more tolerant and accepting like me, you wont find me sending back a soup in a restaurant just because the #$%# waitress dropped it on the floor, last week I was walking thru the park and got warm dog chocolate on my best slippers and pajamas but not a complaint passed my lips..I just wiped it off with my hankie and bid the dogs owner a cheery good afternoon and moved on, sometimes when planes fly over my caravan it wakes me up in the middle of a nap but I dont complain because I know that would be un-Austrtalian,some days I just walk around smiling at strangers, so instead of getting all warped and angry and taking out your frustrations here on YA just take a deep breath and a bex and relax you will find that your problems are not really problems at all, cant we all just make a bit more effort to get along?

Should I stay or should I go?

I put in my 2 weeks notice this past monday. I got a new job with better pay and benefits. At the age of 29, this will be my first real job with benefits. But I decided on Monday that I was going to give my employer 2 weeks to be nice to them. They haven't been too bad of employers but one boss we swear is bipolar. When I told the head boss I was quitting, he didn't ask why I was quitting, but proceeded to tell me that giving them enough time in advance when I left the week before for vacation wasn't suffice. I left 2 hours earlier that what I was going to leave at. He griped me out for that. After he was done yelling at me, I went back to my desk and tried to work. I should have just gotten up and left. Anyways, its been a couple days since then and the head boss doesn't even care that I'm here. Doesn't acknowledge me, say hello, nothing. What would make me stay here any longer? Besides being the only designer, but that's their fault for not getting another one to fall back on if something was to happen to me. They have no safety, but I don't want to be here if i'm not getting treated like i should be. Plus next week I'm supposed to be on jury duty for the whole week...so i will be out the next week if i'm selected. What do you all think...should I stay or should I go?

Gripe water..any idea?

Where do I look for funding for PhD research in lost or rare silent films?

I am an MSc student at the University of Edinburgh, and I am currently applying for a PhD programme. I want to write my dissertation on silent film adaptations of Victorian Gothic novels, with a special emphasis on monster characters. I have already done a lot of research on this topic and have realized that I will have to travel to many international film archives to track down lost, rare, or partially lost silent films. This research may prove quite valuable from a historical/preservation perspective as I will be looking for forgotten or neglected films and bringing attention to their aesthetic and film historical value. I have run a basic Google search to look for funds for this work, but have found meager results. What sort societies, foundations, or other organizations may offer grants or scholarships for this type of research?

IF someone is fool enough to try and smoke in your car with your ASTHMATIC child, shouldn't it be perfectly?

Honestly, I find smoking in a non-smoker's car after being told not to smoke the offensive thing. I don't think smoking in a car with an asthmatic child is good, but a "healthy" child...well...not that big of a deal. Not ideal. Not even polite. But not like injecting vials arsenic in their bloodstreams.

Giving my 3 month year old baby oatmeal?

I tried doing the same with my son as far upping the ounces but my pedi suggested that 6 oz was too much at that age.my sons 19 lbs at 7 months.doctor says he's right on track.some babies r lighter and some r heavier but oatmeal that early isn't suggested.a single graib rice cereal would be better but I doubt he'd be capable of eating off a spoon that early or understand his tongue reflex of how to use it to push the food to the back of hIs mouth then swallow. Maybe he's not hungry...maybe he's understimulated or has acid reflux issues which your thinking is a cry for food...possibilty.anyways hope I could help.my son had reflux and once they figured it out his fussing got alot less and the medicine seemed to make his eating habits slot more normal for his age.

Names of actresses, links, DeviantArt photographers are all widely welcome in hopes to inspire my writing some. Thank you.

Why did they bear so many children?

have you ever been to a cemetery that predates the 20th century? They are full of kids. Infant mortality used to be very high. Plus, there was no government assistance or old age benefit system, so it was your offspring that were your insurance program, so you had many children to make sure you had some that made it to adulthood. Further, the migration from farm to city was in progress at that era, and on farms your kids were your work force. The attitude hadn't yet changed with the newer urban culture. Add that to the lack of practical birth control, and there you are. lots of kids per family

Does Baby Bliss Gripe Water work for your baby?

Mylicon doesn't work that well for my five weeks old so I am looking for something to help with his belly discomfort and a nurse suggested Baby Bliss Gripe Water. Does it work for your baby?

My premature baby is finding it difficult to poo?

My little baby is finding it difficult to poo, but I'm not sure of the best method to help him go. His gp and neonatal nurse said to give him orange juice. The gp said give him it once a day, if this doesn't work twice if not three times a day, as you cant overdose on orange juice...however I'm worried about it giving him tummy ache. I have tried rubbing his belly and moving his legs in a bicycle motion as well as giving him a bath, it used to work...but doesn't seem to anymore. His health visitor said give him an ounce of boiled water, this didn't work either, she also said orange can gripe his bowels. She also said don't give him brown sugar because this may make his blood sugar levels go up as he is prem, (he was born at 29+4 gestation). I'm confused as to what is the best thing to do.

Why are there so many disgruntled postal workers?

What you stated is exactly what is causing problems...workers hating their managers, there is too much work, more hours added to existing routes, being fired for no good reason, undue stress, inadequate background checks...I know for a fact, in my local post office every day the lines are out the door, there are less people working the windows resulting in much longer waits, If anything you would think there would be customer rage instead.

Colicy 3 month old...please help?

Have you tried letting him sleep up right in his car seat or a swing? If he continues to cry then I would take him to the doctor. There could be another reason for his crying. Maybe acide reflux or something to that nature. If he's breastfed then if could be something in your diet that's triggering it.

Critique my writing please?

Whoa! That is sick, twisted, disgusting, shocking and TOTALLY FREAKING AWESOME! This is one of the better things I have read on Yahoo and I am being honest here. This is good gore! It also has a good flow, good grammar and paragraph structure. If the point of the scene was to shock, you did a great job. Keep working on this. You are off to a great start. Best of luck!

Help!! I need advice about how to deal with a conflict with my parents?

Help! So, today at school around noon I texted my mom asking her if I could come home because my leg was really sore (I'm currently pre-op for an acl/mcl/meniscus tear injury). All we were doing after lunch was the annual "undercalssmen awards ceremony" where the teachers motivate lesser students by giving them awards and stuff in front of the whole class. There was really no reason for me to be there, especially since they weren't marking absences in the afternoon. She said no, so after some mild griping I hung up and went to the assembly, which was scheduled to last from about 1-3. Mid-way through, my leg was really throbbing, so I left and went to the sick room so I could ice and elevate. I texted her again asking for her to come get me, to which she responded with the always handy "ask your father." I did, and he FLIPPED OUT. He accused me of faking so that I could skip the ceremony and told me to "get the f****** ice and go back to the auditorium." I stayed in the sick room until 3, when school was let out. When I got home, my mom was saying things like "just wait until your dad gets home" and threatened to cancel my weekend plans of playing with a professional orchestra at a memorial day event. I have to find some way to convince them to let me go!! Any advice?? Please help!

What are those weird little piano things from the victorian era called?

I know, the question's kinda vague but I don't know how else to ask it. Somebody out there's gotta know what I'm talking about. They're these little pianos that seemed to be popular during the victorian era. They have a strange sound all their own, nothing like a piano. It's freakin' driving me crazy and I can't figure it out on my own.

How to make my condo smell good all the time?

I'd suggest scented cleaners. And maybe a couple of AirWick automatic sprayers. I have one in my living room and it works wonders. Also those scented cone thingys, where you life the plastic, work great in rooms also! I have one in my bathroom and bedroom, as well as one in the closet when you walk in the door, cause we put our shoes in there. Also Febreeze. Just make sure the scents coordinate or the smell will be horrible!

Was the author C.S. Lewis a sexist?

I think calling Jack Lewis a sexist would be a bit too extreme. His ideas were probably middle-of-the-road considering his religious beliefs and the times during which he wrote.

Why would anyone want marijuana leaglized?

I don't understand who would want it legalized beside major corporations and entrepreneurs like myself who could invest and make it into a major industry just like tobacco. Drug dealers would hate it beside prices would be very low people would be paying nothing. Drug dealers would be outta profit it ain't illegal Anymore so no need to smuggle it. It would be taxed heavily just like smokes so people who gripe about how much a pack of joints would cost. So who wins beside we entrepreneurs and manor companies?

Genius F610 tablet not working?

I got my tablet for Christmas in 2009, and when I first used it, it worked fine. It came with a disk to download Macro Key Manager and other stuff that I didn't think I needed. However, when I tried to use it a few months later, it didn't work. This was after that laptop got the hard-drive wiped. Now, we have a new laptop, and I tried it last night. I plugged in the USB cord, installed the tablet drive, and said it was ready for use. The blue light in the corner of the tablet keeps blinking, and it doesn't respond to any touches. Is there any way I can fix this?

Pink-screen PS3 non-hdtv prob!! Help!?

So I bought a PS3 and haven't upgraded my TV situation to an HDTV...so I bought a R/G/B PS3 cord and am currently using it. I held down the power button for 10 secs and reset it already. The graphics are still really good and the sounds impeccable, BUT everything is a tinge of pink. Everything. The PS3 home screen, DVD playback, games, internet...everything. I've tried to unplug the cord and replug it back in, and other R/G/B ports on my tv. It just doesnt seem to come in normal. Whites, greys, pretty much anything neutral or red is pink-ish.

Why is it considered racist to not want ethnic minorities in our native lands?

They are always griping about how we whites are in their lands and their people are being oppressed blah blah blah, and nobody every says anything about it. Yet when we complain about them being in our country abusing our generous welfare system we get called racist. Why the double standards? Can't the minorities practice what they preach?

My son opened us a facebook page and he is writing to his friends . I found out t?

that he face booked our dr, and she blocked us. The reason why I know this I overheard him griping to a friend about it. He even went under my name and I changed my password. Now, I am embarrassed of what he did and afraid she'll drop us as patients. We just started going to her and doctors are hard to find. I grounded him of course but now I am worrying about this problem. Believe me , she is NOT very friendly and I am very careful around her. What can I do?

What is the acceleration of the center of mass of the cart–block system?

Figure 9-44 shows an arrangement with an air track, in which a cart is connected by a cord to a hanging block. The cart has mass m1 = 0.600 kg, and its center is initially at xy coordinates (–0.500 m, 0 m); the block has mass m2 = 0.400 kg, and its center is initially at xy coordinates (0, –0.100 m). The mass of the cord and pulley are negligible. The cart is released from rest, and both cart and block move until the cart hits the pulley. The friction between the cart and the air track and between the pulley and its axle is negligible. (a) In unit-vector notation, what is the acceleration of the center of mass of the cart–block system? (b) What is the velocity of the com as a function of time t, in unit-vector notation?

Kenwood deck mounting help?

So I bought a Kenwood deck from my friend. I had noticed that my stock deck was bolted on. And that I had no idea how to bolt my new deck down so it doesnt come out. So basically you can just grab the deck and pull it out. I was wondering how. Or what I can buy so I can mount this deck so it wont come out. The deck fits fine, It stays in.just when I tug on the auxiliary cord or when I pull it. It just come out. Is their a way I can stop this? If so so what must I buy or do? I'm still new at this stuff so I'm confused.and I didn't go to a shop because their were going to overcharge me to install it.

I admit I did wrong but do not agree with husbands demands. Is it wrong to ask him to meet me half way?

I have been married for almost 10yrs. Until recently it hasn't been a very great one. No one is perfect but for years I was shown hardly any affection at all & the attention I got was being griped/yelled at for anything & everything. I felt very alone at times even though I was married. We have always had a extremely large circle of friends. I was raised in a family of music lovers so going to see live music is a large part of my life as is his & our friends.I'm always the one keeping him imformed on what is going on with all of our friends. Friendship is important to me & I give them a call every now & then to see how they are. One of my best friends is a guy that we both know & have known for years. My husband for longer than me at least 15yrs & myself 12yrs. We have always been better friends than he & my husband have been. He sang at our wedding & we all lived in a duplex together for about 3 yrs. Since we moved out of that house I have always kept in touch with him. talked a few times a week, had lunch every now & then, BS'd about this & that. I never kept anything about this friendship from my husband. He never once picked up the phone to see how he was doing ro hangout with him or anyone for that matter when he changed & became the stranger but we all still saw each other out. On with it, things got really bad with my husband. For mths I was ignored unless i was being bitched at. I talked to myself at home. thats what it felt like. i rarely got a response from him & if i did it was a nod or short 1 word answer & if i got that it was a good day. most of the time i wasn't even sure he heard me. it was bad no matter how much i tried to make him see how it hurt me & had been hurting me for years by refusing to understand that its not ok to never kiss your wife, or constantly be yelling. he was just a very unhappy person making me very unhappy but I stuck it out waiting for him to come back to me. I had my friends & music & that can help you get thru anything. My guy friend was there for me of course. we never crossed the line of our friendship ever in all these years. he has a girlfriend who is also my friend. but one night he's wasted & i'm a little wasted & miserable at this point we're texting about nothing important & we started talking dirty. not to each other about each other just about dirty subjects & ended up doing some dirty texting ourselves.he sent a picture i sent a picture & then it got weird so we quit. We were embarrased & ashamed & didn't talk for a few weeks after that. when we did we decided to just pretend like it never happened because it was stupid & it didn't mean anything & it wouldn't happen again. Not long after that my husband finally snapped out of his la la land & really started trying to be the person I married. Hooray right. once this happened he became jealous of my friendship & said he didn't realize we were so close. its because he wasn't paying attention. that incident was the only thing i ever hid from him. He asked me to not talk to him about our problems I did, he asked me to not have lunch with him anymore, i did that too. I guess when it all went down my husband got the dirty picture off my phone. 2mths ago he confronted me about it knowing who it was & i told him what happened. He told me I was never to speak to my friend again & told me that i could kiss all my other friends goodbye too & that i was never allowed to go anywhere that he may be at. I know what happened was wrong. We both admit that. I just don't think its fair for him to tell me I can never speak to him again. He's connected to everyone that we know & there is a good possibility that he could be anywhere we go in town. I do not feel like i should have to give up my friends & music over this. I am willing to change my relationship with this friend & I think that my husband should be able to be in the same bldg as him & just not talk to him & avoid getting too near him. 2 of my good friends are getting married in a few weeks & he says we're not going, our friends band is having a huge 10ys celebration & we have been there since the beginning. we can't go support those guys because he might be. I just think that he's being a little ridiculous. I don't blame him for being upset & i'm not asking him to get over it now. We're adults & we should be able to come up with a solution that doesn't involve changing my entire life over one mistake that happoened almost a year ago. maybe this is the wrong thing to say but for 8+ years I was not treated very well & i stayed in a marriage that most people would not have. i'm glad i did because things have been better, its hard going back but we're getting there. i just feel like I gave him chance after chance & he won't even try to give me a second chance. it has not happened again & it won't. i realize he has no way of knowing that but I think he could give me a cha

Should I stay or should I go?

IF you are to the point where you no longer can take his disposition, have tried everything in your power, now are to the point of leaving. Don't know IF you've considered professional help or not, if you feel it could help, by all means at least try it. IF you definitely ARE mind set on leaving tho, do not wait for your children to be subjected to this way of life. They KNOW they are not living in a happy home! Do you want to continue this way of life for them?! It's NOT fair of them, they did not choose it. It's up to you to make the choice for all of you. Write down the pros & cons of leaving now. Write down the pros & cons of waiting 5 more yrs. See which side out weighs the other! IF you want to live in a peaceful home for you AND your children, you then do know what you must do to make it so. Don't accept the unacceptable! Don't settle for less. Do what you KNOW you must do & get busy on doing just that...I DO wish you the best...:)

Do republicans just have more free time to complain?

How do you guys do it? It's like I see the same people on here all the time complaining and griping. I'd like to think that I'd passionate about politics but there's no keeping up with you guys. Do you guys have jobs? Or lives? Or anything else to do? And if you say that you do this on your computer while working then you must have some IMPORTANT job that allows you to constantly post gripes on Yahoo the whole time you're there.

Hooked up car cd player and it doesnt work.?

So I bought a new cd player and when I took out my old the wire plugin didn't match my new one. So I looked at each set of wires and I cut off the old plugin. I grounded the black wire with the metal piece to a screw inside my dash. Then I split the same wires of each set and twisted them together and then used electrical tape to cover them. There were some extra cords but I had no where to hook them up so I wrapped them up so they wouldn't just be open inside of the dash. I then plugged in the power (or antenna) not sure which one it was but it fit my new cd player as well. I then put my dash back together and screw in and plug back in everything I had messed with in order to get to my cd player. I turn my car on to see if my cd player works and I here it make a noise (the cd player itself) but it didn't come on. No lights, no sound, nothing. What did I do wrong? How do I make it work??

How do I put an aquarium heater?

I just started my tank and I'm not exactly sure how the heater should go. It's supposed to be a fully submersible Top Fin Heater. Anyways, does it go horizontally? Or vertical? Or what? And does it go at the top of the tank, or the bottom? Also, if it's fully submersible, what about the cord that comes out at the top? Can That go under water too? (there's that grey rubber thing, then the plug cord comes right out of it) So how far under water can this fully submersible heater go?

What are some different names with the same meaning as these?

I'm writing a book and want to use these certain names because they mean revenge and thats the whole idea of the story .... The names are Ares and Nemesis one is a male one is a female. The problem is I want more common or more Victorian style names for the kind of story it is. Any suggestion. P s the females name could also mean something that has to do with true love no matter what if there's a better name and the story behind the guy is that they are truly in love and then he kills her. But she gets revenge in the end. It's bittersweet. So anything that would work for his meaning. So if you could put the name, meaning and country of origin that'd be great thanks!

How do I fix my ipod nano?

My nano is a 3rd generation, works great. I use it with an imac. I just got a thinkpad t420 and hooked my ipod to it, but nothing happened. there was nowhere to eject it, so I was forced to just pull out the cord. All of my music was erased from the ipod (which doesn't matter cause I have it all on my mac and nothing is lost). I know in the manual it says you can't switch the ipod from mac to pc without it erasing your files. My problem is that now when I plug my ipod back into the mac, it won't show up in itunes. and my ipod says "0 KB used, 0 KB free." What does that mean? It charges, but I can't play the games on it, it just turns into the Apple sign. It can't be broken! Please help me fix this, I really don't want to have to pay for apple service or a new one. Please.

Did people tell their kids about sex back in Victorian times?

I know it was a very repressed and prudish time. Did people give their kids the talk or did they just have to figure out what to do on their wedding night? Were young women taken by surprise when they had their first baby? Or did they sit down with them after they got engaged and tell them everything?

Websites that sell gothic victorian clothes/dresses in extra small sizes?

I like clothes that are gothic/victorian style, and my 15th birthday is coming up soon. My mother said that i can buy a dress from a website if i can find any.

How do I simmer down when I can't have sex?

Sometimes when my girlfriend isn't in the mood I get really upset and bummed out, I try not to express it but sometimes I just can't help myself, I find it hard to go to sleep because the whole thing makes me feel a little undesirable, but i'm more mad at myself for acting like a baby by griping about it and upsetting her, which I realize after the fact is a huge turn off, so how do relax? because I also get a bit squirmy when this happens too. I love her to death and have not intention of breaking up with or cheating on her. Also going to the bathroom and jackin it doesn't help anymore.

Bringing "Oversize" Items On A Plane?

I am going to a foreign country where I will be living for quite a while. However, among the items I am bringing an electronic drum set is one of them. It is lightweight and portable, so I can stick all of the items into one travel bag except for a tube that is part of the frame, it is too long (around 4 feet long) to fit in a bag. My idea was to take the tube and bungee cord it to the outside of a travel bag. Can I do this or will this go against regulations? If I can't, is there any other methods I could use?

Does my boyfriend love me?

So I always tell him things like randomly for example "I can't go to vegas this weekend bc I don't have as much as I though :( ".. He says to me ya honey I don't think it's a good idea..Which I do not mind.. Then (btw just out of college poor as a joke 300 bucks left for 6 weeks) I say ya I only have 300 bucks.. He says well if you didnt spend it carelessly...didnt have pets...bla bla bla... I told him I don't honestly I buy cheap food.. need my computer for job purposes (had to order a cord)... tickets bc no one paid for my registration.. gas.. all of my "needs".. I don't buy clothes and spend it on things I don't need.. Haven't even gone out to dinner once... He also is always so critical of me saying don't feel bad for yourself you don't need to cry (my mom is losing her house)... I am looking for a job frantically everday but it's never enough.. I need this to just live... and support my pets who I know this is dumb to many but are like my kids for 10 years which don't take "that much out of my pocket" not enough to make a difference(less then 20 bucks a month)... He used to be so loving and supportive and when I'd cry he'd say you're really lucky you have such a nice boyfriend and things like that... Now this... We've been together a year. Does he still love me... I asked him one time why are you so critical... He said if I wasn't then you'd have to worry (idk bc he's critical of people he's never even met). I put this in here bc the people in this section aren't dumb like the people in "dating".

My daughter is 12 months old and is very gassy. How do I get rid of it?

My daughter is 12 months old and has sooo much gas. We are on Nexium for acid reflux, Mylicon drops don't seem to help, and she is on Good Start 2 Soy formula for older babies. We have tried gripe water and colic calm over the counter aides and still gassy. We can feed her for 3 oz. and help her burp and we will continue to get lots of burps up till the next feeding. She won't nap if she has a burp because she will wake up every 15 minutes to burp. The doctors just tell us she is a gassy baby....really? Thats all you can tell me? Any help or tips would be apprciated. We are looking into goats milk. Any other suggestions? Oh and we use probiotics when needed. Thanks!

Trying to remember a movie?

There was a movie that I had seen a few years ago but at the same time im not sure when it was released. the movie had a teenage girl ( i think she was in some circus?) and there was this soldier he was married and had 2 kids but he left his family for this teenage girl. They ran away from the circus and i know that people and the police came searching for them. At the end, the man and girl kill themselves. The theme was sorta like a victorian era i think. thanks

What did Victorian women for period pads and how often did they bath?

Hi, I'm just curious about these questions which you can't really ask your history teacher but how often did Victorian men and women bath (mainly upper and middle class I'm wondering) and what did women use for pads during their periods and what did they do for toilet paper. Any ideas? I'll be very grateful

Questions about the Tower of London?

I'm writing a book that I was hoping could take place in Victorian England, if not then a little bit soon, but I'm stuck. I was going to have my main character's mother be trapped in the Tower of London when she gives birth, but as far as I have researched the Tower of London was used mostly in the 14th and 15th century. So I was wondering what is the latest year the Tower used as a prison, and what are some famous prisons used anywhere from the late 1700s to the mid 1800s. Thanks so much :)

Should I switch from the Captivate to the iPhone?

I currently have a Samsung Captivate with Android 2.2. Lately, I've been feeling somewhat unsatisfied with it. My main gripes are with the overall unpolished feel of the OS (particularly the lag, bugs, and low-quality apps) and the horrible battery life. However, I am a heavy user of Gmail and Google Talk, the turn-by-turn voice navigation on Google Maps has been helpful on occasion, and I like the notification system. Are these things worth sacrificing to make the switch? Please give reasons, don't just say yes or no.

Why do people who have never taken care of kids think they know how "easy" it is simply by observation?

What is their gripe with stay at home parents? Surely stay at home parents don't walk up to them in the streets and complain about how hard their day was, so why do they even care?

Chance of pregnancy??....?

okay, so i've been having protected sex with my bf quite a lot recently ...and though we've used condoms he usually starts off without using one for a good 10-15mins..and obviously i've heard pre-*** can get you pregnant. ...we have also had unprotected sex for the duration (only sometimes)...though he didnt *** in me. My last period was 3/4 days late and finally came on 3rd May, however it only lasted 3days with the last day being so light i didn't really leak much on the pad (sorry if tmi)....usually i'm really heavy and last about 5days but this was a lot lighter. The time leading up to that 'period' i became severly fatigued to the point where i didn't have the energy to walk fast...all of my muscles/joints ached and i started to get severe back ache and griping/pulling pains in my stomach...this carried on throughout my period and to this day i still have those symptoms along with extreme nausea that lasts throughout the day...i have also had a lot of heartburn and the need to urinate more frequently. ...and i know this sounds strange but i just feel pregnant. ....i'm most likely not to be but what are your opinions??

Pink-screen PS3 non-hdtv prob!! Help!?

So I bought a PS3 and haven't upgraded my TV situation to an HDTV...so I bought a R/G/B PS3 cord and am currently using it. I held down the power button for 10 secs and reset it already. The graphics are still really good and the sounds impeccable, BUT everything is a tinge of pink. Everything. The PS3 home screen, DVD playback, games, internet...everything. I've tried to unplug the cord and replug it back in, and other R/G/B ports on my tv. It just doesnt seem to come in normal. Whites, greys, pretty much anything neutral or red is pink-ish.

How to handle passive/aggressive co-worker?

Don't let her behavior bother you, she is just trying to irritate you. If I were you I would continue answering her ringing phone, don't mention it to your boss, and do it well. The last time I answered another persons ringing telephone, a task that wasn't necessarily my job but I did it glady, I got nominated for an award. It was actually one of the best things that ever happened to me. My point is just ignore her behavior, and maybe not immediately, but if she doesn't straighten up her act she will cause her own demise (not that you want that to happen but she will straighten up).

Guys, What could he be thinking and how do I handle this if I want to stay together?

Stop crying. This jerk isn't worth your tears. Count your lucky stars you found out now what he is like rather than after you married him and it leads to even more heartache for you and your child. He is supremely selfish and most likely has a controlling and abusive personality. You deserve better than that. Don't waste your time with him or you will miss the many good things coming your way.

Victorian era sci-fi/fantasy book recommendations?

I've been told that the name given to sci-fi/ fantasy books set in the Victorian era is madcap.

My Ipod Touch Got Wet What Do I Do ?

Well, while I was holding a cup with one hand less than half way filled with iced tea, the other hand was holding my ipod which I was using then while I was typing it slipped out of my hand and into my cup . It fell upside down , so the side that had the power button was in the iced tea . I quickly took it out and starting wiping it and shaking it . It was still on , so I clicked the home button and then I clicked the power button ( I was trying to see if all the buttons were working ) then I was planing on shutting it off and turing it back on but it turned off by itself . I frantically tried turning it back on but it didn't . Then I thought maybe it'll turn on if I connect it to my charger , maybe it just died because it wasn't charged . So I connect my ipod in my computer , itunes pops up & a little box pops up saying that I need to put in the pass code but how can I put my pass code if my screen doesn't want to turn on. Then I start clicking buttons again , I start noticing that my screen is on its just that its really really dark , I could see the dim apple logo , then I click something again then a very dim usb cord and the itunes logo comes up in my screen I could barely see it though I have to put it in the light to see . I start pressing on the power button for at least 10 second then it showed the little red sliding thingy that say slide to power off , it shows my the small little battery on the top and the cancel button on the bottom . The lock screen never showed up my ipod is still dark and I really don't know what to do anymore, My Ipod 3G 32GB is 6months old all scratched up from how many times I've dropped it and the volume buttons don't work I don't think it has a warrenty or what ever that is so I can't bring it to the apple store . Plus I'm only 14 and my parents don't know or then they'll kill me . Is there anyway it can be fixed ? Please I don't know what to do anymore .

Some questions about how people thought of actors and actresses in the past...?

I have heard or read or whatever that in the beginning of the 20th Century and earlier, actors and actresses were seen as little more than prostitutes. But didn't wealthy society people go to the theater back then? So was it all right to go see plays, just not all right to be in them? And was it always like that, like in Shakespeare's time, or was it just the Victorians who were so uptight? And are there any books or documentaries on this particular subject?

Hi fellow seniors, do you get annoyed when you see others dropping their litter?

Lilly, someone left a refrigerator in a park up the street from where we live. Luckily, there was videocam, and they got the license plate # of the truck. People will dump anything alongside the road, in a park, in the parking lot of a mall, or just about anywhere. It shows how poorly some of these people were raised.

Can a PS3's audio be heard through a Theater system using composite cords while connected to the TV with HDMI?

What I would do is just get an audio cable (you can use a red-white RCA if you have to, but if you want surround sound use a digital-optical or digital-coaxial cord) from your TV to the home theater receiver when you get it. Then you don't have to mess with the HDMI connections.

Are there any places left in the world where they live like they're in the Victorian Era?

No, the majority of society now has degraded into surface surface surface with no real meaning. Old morals that were prominent such as honour, loyalty, and pride are things that no one really feels anymore and have little importance. Groups of weary people, hit the bars and clubs at weekend not with the aim of socialising but with one goal in mind - to get as smashed and messed up as possible. Self destruction is rampant throughout our world and humanity is collectively going insane. There is an apparent mask of order in the world but underneath the repressive forces of society mean that people are on the edge, about to explode. Within the next 4-500 years this will happen. The rigid structures that go so much against human nature will collapse and the world will descend into chaos. From the ashes of this chaos will emerge a new, freer society that will in effect be spiritual utopia. All of our chains will be gone. But there will be much pain, war and chaos before this is achieved. Unfortunately it is unlikely we will witness this transformation in our life time but we may witness the beginning, the descent as I call it will be the first phase and will begin within about 100 years.

My HP G60 laptop screen has gone black...sound still comes on, but no picture. Is there a way to fix it?

Yesterday my daughter was on YouTube watching some videos and the computer screen went black and shut down. I assumed it had overheated or something so we just kept it off for the rest of the day. When we went back to turn it on it booted up just fine, but the screen was totally black. No picture at all. I ended up taking the battery out and unplugging the power cord then plugging it back in and turning it on and it was fine. When I was done using it I powered it off rather then letting it hibernate and came to turn it on this morning and the black screen was back (sigh)....did the same steps as before and it came back on, and now I am here! I have been searching like crazy but I am not very techy and don't understand a lot of what I am reading!....Any help would be appreciated!!

What can I do about my landlord not cleaning the home before I moved in?

I just moved into this house 2 days ago. I had signed the lease on the 16th of April so the property management company had ample time to get this house cleaned. I paid 3100 cash up front the day that we looked at the property. 1100 for the Junes rent 550 for the remainder of May and then another 1100 for a security deposit! We got here with our trucks full of stuff only to see that the homeowner still had stuff here! The refridgerator was disgusting, I could tell the carpets had not been cleaned, the toilets still had pee drops and pubic hairs all over them. Bugs in the tub, food and what not still in the cabinets, dog pee right by the front door on the tile, i mean it was horrible. I understand that the home owner is military and doesnt have much time but he hired a PROPERTY MANAGEMENT OFFICE. Also, the first night we were here there was NO hot water..i called the property manager and asked him to send someone out, he told me I should stay at a hotel! I did call corporate and he has since called and griped out my hubby about that. But he admits no wrong doing in having us spend our first 10+ hours here cleaning! Shouldn't that company be responsible for that? What can I do? I do not know Colorado laws! Please help! Thank you

Recovering files off HD w/ Vista?

Ok, so here's my issue- I have an HP laptop that refuses to function, it hasn't turned on in 6 months. I have replaced the power cord, the battery, etc. I had been told by tech support at my school that the motherboard on HP laptops are completely unreliable and it likely fried and that I'm better off just buying a new laptop, which I did back in January. I bought a Gateway laptop w/ Windows 7 installed on it. However, I need the information off of my hard drive from my old HP laptop. I have already removed the hard drive itself, so now what? Can I just pop it into my new Gateway and expect to recover my files? The hard drive on the Gateway is virtually impossible to remove tho, it has the smallest screws to it and I fear I will mess it up trying to put it back in or I will lose the screws. Is it even possible to put a hard drive that had Windows Vista on it into a laptop w/ 7 running on it? I also don't want to take it to tech support or Best Buy to recover my information mainly because I have stuff on there that I don't want others to be able to access. I would prefer getting these files back on my own, if that's possible. Any suggestions?

Childhood dream, need help!?

This dream makes perfect sense to me. Your dream is about your wedding and finally meeting the man you love and finally you have someone that you love and so now he can take the place as your husband in your dream. The dream is telling you what you already know that you love Tim and think he could possibly be someone you could see yourself with down the line...doesn't mean your going to get married, just that you think he's "marriage material". Hope this helps. :)

Punishments of the Victorian era?

One attempt to stop the growth of crime had been through making punishments severe (hanging or transportation). By the time Queen Victoria came to the throne, fewer crimes carried a compulsory death sentence. There were fewer hangings, and sentences for petty crime were getting lighter. In their place other ideas were being tried out. These included building new gaols and looking at how these could be used to stop criminals from re-offending in the future. transportation was often used instead of hanging for more serious crimes.

Mix Enfamil Formulas?

My son is 2 1/2 months old and were still trying to figure out which formula is the best (he also has colic) he was on Enfamil Premium Newborn, but then the doctor had us switch to Gentlease because he said it would be easier on his stomach, it was for a little bit but his colic was way out of hand so we tried the Enfamil for Colic and he didnt like it at all, so now our doctor gave us these drops to help him with his stomach and we tried gripe water, they helped for a few weeks but now its like they dont do anything for him anymore, so now the doctor says we should try Enfamil Prosobee (for sensitive tummy) I was just wondering how many days do I mix the formulas so it will be easier on his stomach than just giving him the straight soy?!? Thank you.

White people are too uptight about racism or Gaysism. I mean I'm gay and i call myself a fag. I think its fun. I make gay jokes. They are funny. So stop being uptight.

Breastfed one month old always gassy.?

Try giving him Mylicon and avoid any type of spicy food (garlic, onion, etc.) and make sure he is calm before you feed him so he doesn't swallow air. Good luck

Does anybody here think that if the President was to be changed and no one or news station knew it that?

That no one would even know the difference? With all the anger on here, I have a feeling that if the President was to be swapped out right now, and no news station knew it that 10 months from now no one would even know. What do yall think? Also, if all the 24 hour news stations and political radio stations were to shut down for 1 year that many people wouldnt even know what to hate or gripe about. Anyone agree?

If a woman is a passive dater, does she have any grounds to complain about not finding a "good man"?

Nope, don't think she has much of a reason to complain, nor do guys who pick loser women (who are mean, angry, lie, cheat, are crazy, are engaged, separated or married). Some people settle, think they can't find anyone else and complain, and/or let their emotions override logic. Been there, done that, got rid of them, and don't have any reasons to complain!

Got any comments? reasoning? could this be all water weight

Why do liberal men constantly gripe about the looks of conservative women?

From looks to clothing, they do more squawking than a house full of hens. Why do they see a problem with personal hygiene and taking care and pride in your appearance? I thought liberal democrats were all about tolerance and acceptance?

Can my computer automatically turn on when it is sleeping?

How often did victorian women bath and what did they use for period pads?

Hi, I'm just curious about these questions which you can't really ask your history teacher but how often did Victorian men and women bath (mainly upper and middle class I'm wondering) and what did women use for pads during their periods and what did they do for toilet paper. Any ideas? I'll be very grateful

The Patriot Act. Whats the big deal?

Really, whats the big deal? There have been no freedoms taken away from me by it, and no one I know. Free speech is still in effect. Were still in a democracy. What is the gripe?

In Victorian era England, what would be the likely outcome of these situations?

2) he would bring it up on his own as best as he could. if he could afford servant fine. there was no lower class. you were either poor or rich. working or not. maybe a family member would raise it like an aunt or even a friend. after the 2nd world war my friend's father's mother died of TB so her friend brought her up. i know thats a century or more on but i guess the same applied. also the oldest sibling was often seen as head of the household.

If you like your lines and think you can go big time dedicate your time to working on your rhymes. You are what's holding you back. So ask yourself the question am i good enough to make it?

My dad really gets me down and Idk what to do about it?

If I were you, I would go on the offensive and tell him EXACTLY what he's doing. I'm assuming from the way you type that you're pretty level-headed, and you're TRYING. You don't deserve to be put down by someone who's throwing himself a perpetual pity-party, even if that person is your father.

What's the difference between mylicon and gripe water?

which works better? Why is mylicon so much more expensive? Which one did you use for your baby? how did it work for you?

Why won't my computer let me online?

Okay, my computer lets me do everything offline, but whenever I try to get online it says there's a connection error like I need an administrator or a new cord because this one broke, which is odd because I use my laptop, and it doesn't do it for my brothers computer, nor our iPods, which is what I'm on now. Could it be my computer? Or could a program not be letting me on? Both my brother and I have Acer Aspires and nothing is wrong with his, and mine just stopped working one day, and won't connect anywhere I bring it.

Why annot play Blu-rays from HP notebook to HDTV ?

I have an HP g60 laptop, with the Blu-ray disc drive. It plays fine through my laptop screen, but when I connect it to my tv with an HDMI cord, HP DVDPlay, says playing on an external monitor is not allowed. Assuming this is to help stop pirating movies. I've tried to look up my problem on the HP website, but all they tell me is how to change my external monitor to be. Is there a different program I can run, or a fix to dvdplay?

How to handle passive/aggressive co-worker?

Paige, put on your confidence boots and tell her that if she has a problem with you she can take it up with you. You have to be firm and extremely serious about this, but not mean or overbearing. Then just carry on, business as usual. Don't let her bother you and try to be as positive as you can. If she doesn't change that's life.

Husband claims i do nothing...advice?

so my husband and i got into a big fight, and im still feeling really hurt. my husband manages a restaurant (assistant manager) and i am a nanny to 3 month old twins. i work 10 hours a day, 5 days a week. i absolutely love my job, but its not what id call "easy". but apparently my husband would. also, he doesnt do ANYTHING around the house. i do the laundry the dishes, take care of our 4 pets, i balance the checkbook and pay the bills, and he goes to work and plays xbox when hes home. and i guess he thinks the house magically cares for itself? I also mow the lawn, wash the car, I mean I do it all. And our home is big, its an older victorian home and has 13 rooms that we are regularly in. It's a lot of work, and on top of that I have RA (rheumatoid arthritis) and I get 2 or 3 flare ups a week where it feels like my knees are on fire, but I still do it all. And to boot, I'm only 22 years old. Anyways during the fight he says I do nothing and when I bring up my job and the housework he says "the housework is a womans duty, and its not that difficult, and you play with babies all day how hard can it be?" how can i get my husband to see all that i do?

My phone will barely charge?

So I have a kyocera phone (i'm trying to save up for a better phone but with gas prices its been impossible) and my phone will only charge if the cord on the charger is in a certain way and if I move the cord at all even slightly it takes forever to find the position again. I know its not the outlet i'm using because this happens at every outlet I try.

I need help understanding this Spanish Question?

I agree with Jerson, it has to be "�Qu� le da AL chico?" . In that case the answer would be "una receta" (a prescription), or "una inyecci�n" (a shot).

Recipe suggestions for vintage inspired wedding?

I am getting married in August and am having a really small wedding 25 ppl. We are doing all the cooking ourselves, my brother is an amazing cook! But we don't want to spend the day of in the kitchen so we are trying to think of make ahead dishes that will go with my vintage theme. Anyone have any recipe suggestions. I know what we are making in terms of desserts but need appetizer, main, and side dish ideas (some vegetarian too) that go with our sort of Victorian throw back theme.

Who else thinks "D" smith is the problem here and not part of the solution?

I am tired of his B.S. Players are not equal partners, it is that plain and simple. Equal partners share expenses. 50/50 means both ways. Are the players kicking in money to help build the new stadium in Minnesota? Do the Players kick in money to buy new equipment for the facilities? Do the players contribute money towards needed equipment? No they do not to ANY of these necessary things that all contribute to what makes an NFL team function. To sit there and gripe about what they are not getting is total crap. They make a ton of money to play a game. Even if they only go a few years they have made over a million dollars. Give me a million dollars for 3-4 of work and you will never hear on gripe from me. No to address the injury issue. None of these players are forced to play. How about this idea, get an education in college so you don't have to rely on football if you are worried about injury. How many roofers fall to their death doing a job that pays a lot less? What about our soldiers fighting to keep us free? Don't hear them whining about there CHOSEN profession. You players want owner money?? Get all your money together, buy a team and run it the way your asking the owners to give to you now. You will be bankrupt in a very short time. Maybe you should have taken some finance classes to understand how the world works. You are NOT and never will be equal partners until you are will to front halt the teams market value to the current owner/owners. After that don't forget the payroll to all the coaches, all the cleaning staff, the locker room help, ushers, vendors, and all the unseen help you all take for granted. How much money do you think is really left? Oh and don't forget you still have to pay yourself and 51+ other guys depending on your IR, practice squad and complete busts of a draft pick( ask the raiders). Easy to sit and criticize ownership when you are ignorant to the true facts. D. Smith is only out for himself. He has a much bigger agenda than the NFL. Use your heads people. Go get your part of the millions you are being offered to play a game.

How do you react when your boyfriend doesn't respond to a gripe that you have?

My boyfriend uploaded a book onto amazon. It is a book that briefly talks about his life to give the readers an idea of who he is. He mentions his friends, families and even enemies. There is no mention or reference to me in the book at all. Not in the content, dedications or acknowledegements. I have been by his side when no one was there so that really shocked me. Last night, I emailed him to compliment him about the book and I also said that I felt a certain type of way about not being referenced. Except I referred to myself as my alter ego. He graciously thanked me for the compliment but said nothing about what I said about me.

Is it weird to want to fight your Mom?

Well of course you can not beat up your mother. I do feel for your situation though can you move out and get a place for you and your grandmother to stay? You did not state your age either, so I guess if you are a miner this will not work either. How does your grandmother feel about your mother and the way she talks to her? If this is your grandmothers house maybe you should just kick your Mother out. I know what you are going through though because my relationship with my mother is tumultuous.

12 Cell Replacement Battery for HP DV6000. Screen flickers when plugged in. Power problem?

Had you still turned your computer off when you charged the battery after the first time? If not, you can try it. In fact, if the adapter doesn't have the enough power, it may cause the problem.

Old Victorian names for pirate characters?

I'm going to guess you're thinking of a Privateer and not actual piracy, which is a war-like act committed by private parties not affiliated with any government at sea. The Victorian period would be a tad late in the game, though with your girl the daughter of a blacksmith I'm guessing your aim is very early in the period. Mary, Marie, and Elizabeth seem to be popular names for female pirates in both history and fiction, so you'd want to avoid those for your girl. Perhaps search for a list of popular names for the period? Or do you want us to throw out random names? In that case, I'll go with Birdie and Ollie.

Fixing an external hard drive?

I have an external hard drive with precious things on it. The only problem is that people don't watch their feet when it's plugged in. So the plug that connects a usb to what ever port I use such as an Xbox is not bent. It's on the EHD it's the connection the cord has to plug into.All cords are fine it's just the connection on/in the EHD. Is there a way to get that part fixed? I would appreciate places, names, address, and phone numbers! (For those who want to give me crap, Yes I know I have to watch the system closely and blah blah blah, Shut up)

Is there a way to repair my ac adapter?

Input is 120v, Output is 9v. Someone was running across the room and snapped the cord in half. I could probably strip the plastic insulation and twist the wires back together. It snapped close to where the "black box" is. The black box part plugs directly into the wall. I was trying to strip the plastic part off, when I saw a spark when I exposed the wires. So I'm assuming there is still a charge inside the "black box". So, I left it alone. Is this not a safe thing to do? Should I assume there is still a lot of electricity inside of it? This is an AC adapter for a keyboard.
