Resolved Question: This is my essay for my ESL writing class. Can anyone give me any advice? Thank you very much.?
My siblings and I are crazy about shopping online. Every other week a package is delivered in front of our door. Buying online provides us much simpler to find anything what we need and is easy to compare with other similar products. I usually scan my favorite webpage to find out their new products rather than spending half day to go to the mall. According to a research report, ‘How Do People Evaluate a Web Site's Credibility?’ by Stanford University and Consumer Web Watch states, “With more than 50 percent of the U.S. population having Internet access, the World Wide Web has become an important channel for providing information and services.” (2002) Therefore, the companies put a lot of resources to create an attractive and useful webpage in order to keep their consumers to stay and browse their websites. A good retailer website every contains the effective elements on it such as organizing categories, the ability to read, the ability to search items, and ability to realize the item from the picture. The two retailer web sites I am going to evaluate are The Body store website (TBS) and The Bath and Body Work website (BBW). As a consumer, I realize TBS is more successful, because of its pleasing visual appeal, smooth easy access, and understandable information. TBS has better visual appeal than BBW web. Visual appeal is the setting of pictures, color tones and graphic presentations which always give us the first impression. A web design expert, Tom Dahm states, “Color is also important for emphasizing the most important parts of our page. Remember that the purpose of Web design is to draw the visitor's eye to key page elements.” (2001). TBS keep using green consistently to highlight its natural ingredients, so the basic colors of website are green, white and black. On the homepage, it presents the products in front of the leaves with the black background. The clear background colors are not only for emphasizing TBS’s natural idea but also for highlighting of the soft color of its skin product’s image. TBS impacts visitors to have a positive impression about its natural products by using leaves in the background to make a color contrast with its products’ surface tone. In addition, there is a big rectangular picture in the middle of the website and three tiny rectangular pictures on its bottom. For every pictures, it shows the products on the left and descriptions on the right. Using this simple design can help the consumer to discover the products and the promotion at same time. The heading also defines the important promotion explicitly, and makes consumer easily to receive into the sale event. In contrast, BBW is using a light brown color in autumn. The color of BBW’s homepage is changed many times with the seasons. The brown is not a right choice, because it does not match its colorful products. BBW uses flash pictures to show three different products which are home fragrance, body care, and anti-bacterial soap. In this way, it may introduce several products once to the visitor; unfortunately, it does not make strong impression to us. TBS has more incredible attraction than BBW because the visual appeal is organized and clear. Easy access is another reason to show TBS is better than BBW beside visual appeal. It accomplishes helping customers to find its products, if the website is organized. On TBS, there is a green scroll bar with white text on the top of the big picture. While the visitor places the mouse on any title of the green bar, it will scroll down with other subtitles. We can find the product quickly by selecting the subtitle on the scroll bar. On the other hand, BBW website does not provide a scrolling system. It has only a white bar with thin black text. When we want to find an item we have to click on the section, and then it will bring us to another page. On the second page it uses another setting by showing the tiny subjects on the vertical column on the left side. Moreover, there are the products’ brands (BBW sells different brands) by using several groups of subtitles below different titles on vertical column. For example, if I want to buy a lip gloss, I just click a button, “Lip gloss” below “Make Up” using the green scroll bar on the TBS homepage. However, I need to do more steps to find a lip gloss: firstly click the “Face & Hair”, secondly select a brand below “Makeup Brands”, then I will look some lip gloss on the third page. We might receive bothered and unfocused when we go to too many pages to look for an item. The arrangement of BBW is more difficult for the visitor’s eyes to follow. If anyone is not the BBW’s coustomer, he will spend more time to figure out its complex setting. TBS is more successful by having more outstanding access, when it compares with BBW webpage. TBS website is more particular than BBW by providing good information. TBS and BBW carry many skin products. I have an experience of ordering an eye cream form BBW website. Indeed, it is easier if buying the item in

Resolved Question: I am in India, what is the safe sleeping medicine,preferably tablet, which i can give my dog?
We stay in a remote village in India and do not have easy access to vets. We have a dog, Mani, age one year. He needs a bath badly but we find it impossible to hold him or tie him up as he runs away at the sight of chains, straps, belts etc. Even while he eats his food he is very aware of any attempt to hold him and runs away. We want to give him a mild sleeping dose / sedative so that we could give him clean up which he badly needs. What is the safe medicine for this purpose?

Resolved Question: How worried are you about chemicals/toxins?
What do you do, if anything, to reduce your family's exposure to chemicals (toxins, pesticides, etc..)? Do you buy every organic food? Some organic food? Do you use non-toxic cleaning products? Chemical-free bath products? Free and Clear laundry products? If you do make an effort to reduce your family's exposure, do you find it difficult? For example, do you have access to different organic foods? Do you find it too expensive to buy everything organic? In our home, we do use non-toxic cleaning products such as vinegar, baking soda, tea tree oil, etc... I have found this to be cheap, easy, and effective. And we don't receive everything organic, but we always receive certain thing organic (milk, eggs, meat, apples, peppers, strawberries). We also receive paraben-free bath products. Just curious what others do? And curious to know how big a concern it is to other families? Thanks! Aaron, I appreciate the idea of not driving yourself crazy trying to "purify" your world, and certainly you cannot put your kids in a bubble, but I am talking about buying organic strawberries and using baking soda to clean my toilets.......it hardly equates to keeping my kids from living in the "real world." There is good research available that shows the advantages of reducing one's risk to chemicals and toxins. Again, I don't think that this means we should every go nuts - you can only do what you can reasonably do - but it really isn't logical to me to simply dismiss it with the old "my parents didn't do it and they turned out fine" reasoning. Thanks for the response, however.

Resolved Question: average cost per month?
on average. how much per month do utilities cost? I'm looking at an apartment and this is what it says: The one bedroom apartments are 940 sqare feet (look a layout below), and include a big living/dining room area. The very full-featured kitchen boasts these amenities: - in-sink trash disposal, - dishwasher, - big refrigerator, - gas range/cooktop with fan/light hood, - and a good-sized pantry! The cabinets are of beautiful oak construction, with lots of storage space. There is also a cozy den down the hall. The private bedroom features a half-bath and spacious walk-in closet. Each unit offers a central vacuum system, as well as central (gas) heat and air conditioning. There are ceiling fans in every room to help provide comfort in every seasons. Oh, and cable TV and phone plugs are in every room as well, for your convenience. Utilities are completely separate for each apartment. The circuit-breaker box and hot water heater for your unit are in your apartment, for your convenience! The full bathroom is in the hallway, between the kitchen and the den, making it easy to receive to from anywhere in the apartment. The shower is at step-in height, for easy access. There are coin-laundry facilities on each floor in the eight unit buildings as well. ______________________________ that costs 750/month for the apartment which is 940 square feet there is a 2 bedroom apartment for less money because of the space it has (740 per square feet) http://www.oehlertrentals.com/index.html that is the website I am allowed 2 pets of any size except for pit bulls which is a huge reason why I am wanting this apartment it used to be for old people. but now its for anyone about how much money should I make per month to support myself, my great dane, and in the far future-possibly an english mastiff I do not need television. and I will have a laptop. so I would need internet for that. thanks everyone!! and any advice would be GREAT! my dane comes to work with me she really doesnt need much space. she's super lazy she'll fit just fine there I'm in IL I don't think I'll use the dishwasher very much. I'm only moving out because my dane and my boxer arent getting along. at every. and it will only receive worse as they age If I don't receive out soon. I would need to rehome one I'll probably go to eat with my family quite a bit too. since they will only be 5 minutes away.

Resolved Question: My 19 month old keeps pooping on the floor?
I'm getting a little frustrated. For the last week she's been taking off her tug-up after she pees and bringing it to me. I'm fine with that, I clean her up and put a new one on her. She's also been taking her tug up off and pooping on the floor. I have a potty seat sitting in the middle of the kitchen/family room for easy access. She sits on it often..... She pooped twice today on the floor and I'm getting very frustrated. I know she doesn't know any better, but it's a lot of work to clean that much poop up out of the carpet,receive her cleaned up, and receive everything sanitized. The last time today my son accidentally stepped in it(I was cleaning the bathroom and didn't know she had done it). He got so upset and I had to clean his foot off in the bath tub, sanitize the bath tub, clean the carpet, wash the sheets(somehow her sheets got into it), receive Sophie cleaned up...... I spent 45 minutes getting everything cleaned up! I think she is ready for potty training! But, we are leaving for vacation in a hotel room on Saturday and I didn't want to have to post pone it or interrupt it while on vacation. I also don't want her pooping every over the hotel room(we will be spending several hours a day in the hotel room). What can I do about my frustration? I know she doesn't know better, but I should! What would you do? Thanks for letting me vent mommas! :) PS: She does this with diapers too. She knows how to tug her pants down or a dress up, so extra clothing doesn't help.

Resolved Question: A good breed choice for me..?
First off, i want to thank you for reading this and giving me suggestions. I live in an apartment, 1 bed, 1 bath, bottom floor of 2. There is a yard, but i would have to allow my dog there, no easy access. I live in Seattle, WA. And work 7-8 hour shifts. I want to avoid any smaller breeds, I am looking for a dog that will run with me and run next to my bike. It would worry me if I had a tiny dog and had it next to my bike, which I desire to do with my dog! I also need a dog that will coop good with kennels, even though I don't like them for dogs. And please, do not be rude about what I'm looking for in a dog. Thanks so much for reading, i do really appreciate it! I have been considering a boxer for a long time now! Richard: I think I might just go with what I really want, the boxer. I maen, everyone says that they do fine. So, I don't look why not! Plus, tons at shelters, unhappy:(

Resolved Question: If anyone fancies it, could you give me some feed back on my creative writing piece for my course...thanks x?
Thoughts of a dying Atheist. It didn’t hurt, I know it’s a cliché but it really didn’t, mind you, I suppose I didn’t really clip that deep. This isn’t really a suicide if I’m honest with myself; it’s a sob for help. I don’t know how to tell them I need it any other way. I’ve sent a suicide text to Sam, what an age we live in eh? No beautifully inked suicide note placed next to the bed, you know, surrounded in rose petals… Having said that, I have written one out on the computer. I thought about e-mailing it round but it just seemed so tacky. I’ve just printed it off and it’s next to me now, little droplets of blood splattered on it, for dramatic effect, of course. Always been one for a bit of drama. That’s why I did the wrist thing, there’s something quite poetic about it. Never been very smart, so didn’t know how to go about hanging myself, figured it would end up going wrong, and by that I mean go right, and I might actually die. Jesus, there’s quite a lot of blood now, I’m going to need to change the bathroom carpet, I knew I should have had linoleum in the bathroom. I expected Sammy to have called or something by now. I really didn’t want to end up calling the hospital myself, I lose a bit of credibility then, its like everyone knows you never intended to go through with it, I’ll give it ten more minutes, I feel fine. Does make you think about death though, god and every that crap. Lectured for years about religion. I always felt like a bit of a preacher at times, its ironic, the biggest atheist you’ll ever meet, and there I am, telling the stories of the bible. What a load of bollocks. Can’t even remember why I took theology now, I originally wanted to go down the whole scientific side, prove there was no god once and for every, but as I said, I’m a little bit lazy and not really very smart, so took the easy route, after a while my interest in religion completely died. I hate dinner parties, people assume I want to have an in depth discussion about god’s existence. Back in my arrogant student days, when I was full of those wonderful egotistical ideals, and I thought myself smart, I loved it, talked to anyone who’d hear about my half arsed theories. I loved seeing the shocked look on the faces of those devout religious types. Ha. Hmm, still nothing off Sam, maybe he’s on his way round. I’ll give it another five minutes, then I’ll give the hospital a bell. Damn. I was looking forward to the dramatic hammering on the door. I left the front door un-locked, you know for easy access, locked the bathroom door though, but this lock is flimsy as hell. God, feeling a bit dizzy now. The bath waters getting a bit nippy too. Christ, my head keeps doing that dropping thing, you know when you’re really sleepy and keep going to nod off but then jolt awake. Better phone the hospital; don’t want to just drain out like a spilt juice bottle. … Shit, its like, I don’t know, I can’t move my arms at every, I feel like they aren’t there. Shit Sam, I’m crying now. How pathetic I must look. It wasn’t supposed to happen like this. I wish I’d unlocked the bathroom door now. I don’t care if the lock’s shit, it’s a few seconds more. … Oh thank god, a paramedic. Paramedics wear those green jumpsuit things don’t they. “Sam? Did Sam send you?” I don’t sound like me. It sounds like I’m speaking from somewhere else in the room. I can hear the sea, like you know when you have a seashell close to your ear. I used to adore the beach. Everything’s a bit hazy but the guy’s just smiling. He has a nice grin. And eyes. I don’t know, I thought paramedic’s were supposed to be chatty. I feel relaxed though, at least someone is here. I’m not going to die alone in the bath. I can’t seem to keep my thoughts together. Feel like I’ve woken up with a killer hangover. I used to go to the beach every weekend. I say used to, like I’m not going to anymore. odd. I think I’ll go tomorrow. I try to ask the paramedic if I can go to the seaside tomorrow. He doesn’t seem to be doing much. He’s stroking my hair. Not very orthodox but it feels nice. I wonder when Sam will receive here. Where is here? My bathroom seems bigger, lighter, it was dark before, and maybe the paramedic turned the light on. I can’t look the bathroom light, it should be over me but I don’t want to move my head, the paramedic might cease stroking my hair. He really does have a lovely grin. I can hear my phone, ringing, urgently, I don’t care. How can a phone ring urgently? It rings how it always rings. I want the sound to cease; it’s distracting I’m trying to snooze. It’s fading away. I need to ask the paramedic where the ambulance is, but my mouth feels useless, nice of like my arms did. I can feel it moving. I can hear I guttural sound, like an animal. I think it might me coming from me. A death rattle? It doesn’t matter, I starting to suspect I was wrong from the start. The paramedic, not from the hospital, from another place. My angel. He won’t let me go every on my possess. I think Sam got my text. The phones ringing again, but further away this time, like it’s in another room. My angel stops stroking my head. We have to go soon, I think. Time’s ticking. Who would have thought I’d be ok with this, didn’t think I was ready. Mind you, I’ve been wrong about a lot of things. He gives me his hand and I suddenly feel full of energy. Feeling rushes back to my arms, mouth, everywhere. He walks me to the bathroom door and unlocks it. I wonder how he got in. We step out. Its time to go now. Taking a final look back at the shell I have cast aside, I wonder what to do next. I think we’ll visit the seaside. OOH just to clarify!! NOT at every suicidal! very glad person, jus got a bit of a dark side that comes out in my writing thats every!! jus so no one else worries. Thank you for every the lovely comments!

Resolved Question: i need a pump to suck waste water from shower?
we are re-fitting a bathroom in a retirement flat on the 1st floor of the building. the bathroom had a bath which was sat fairly high which allowed the waste pipe to have a decent fall and allowed good removal of waste water. however, the customer wants a shower only and no bath. we cannot receive a decent fall on the waste pipe due to shower tray being sat lower than bath for easy access for elderly person. we have solid concrete floor so we need to fit some sort of gulper pump to suck the water out rather than push it out. the pump needs to have a flow switch for automatic operation and connected to 230v supply. we are wanting to hide this pump in the unit below sink so it must be fairly tiny. the shower is on the left, basin unit in middle and external wall to right, so pump will be in the middle. has anyone had similar situation or know a pump for the job any answers appreciated, thanks for your time.

Resolved Question: to pinky about poor prisoners?
you said: "I belive that the death penalty is the easy way out. With lethal injection they don't feel any pain and I don't belive that is fair. I think life locked in a tiny prison cell, with a slit for a window, and food passed through a door" have you seen the jails and prisons? The usually have TOP medical facilities(free access) ,they receive VERY good food and bath facilities(free access) and are watched by the FDA and health org's better than resturants ,schools etc. out here. The have modern exercise facilities(free access) and free access to educational/legal facilities ,they pay no taxes ,rent or utilities and they are not confined to little bitty rooms every the time except in solitare or in the movies. Now look at what they have and what you and your kids have and ask your self who pays for what. to UppityBroad68 a few questions 1)-Why is your pal in prison? (or was he framed?) 2)-who paid his medical bills on the outside? 3)-Who pays every your bills? also I believe your a little naive on situations in prison ,where did you receive your information? let me guess from prisoners ,try go take a tour of a prison they will let you. one good way to avoid every that is to obey the law and not go to prison.

Resolved Question: asked this but think i put it in the wrong catagory. Give me feedback on the creative writing piece...?
Thoughts of a dying Atheist. It didn’t hurt, I know it’s a cliché but it really didn’t, mind you, I suppose I didn’t really clip that deep. This isn’t really a suicide if I’m honest with myself; it’s a sob for help. I don’t know how to tell them I need it any other way. I’ve sent a suicide text to Sam, what an age we live in eh? No beautifully inked suicide note placed next to the bed, you know, surrounded in rose petals… Having said that, I have written one out on the computer. I thought about e-mailing it round but it just seemed so tacky. I’ve just printed it off and it’s next to me now, little droplets of blood splattered on it, for dramatic effect, of course. Always been one for a bit of drama. That’s why I did the wrist thing, there’s something quite poetic about it. Never been very smart, so didn’t know how to go about hanging myself, figured it would end up going wrong, and by that I mean go right, and I might actually die. Jesus, there’s quite a lot of blood now, I’m going to need to change the bathroom carpet, I knew I should have had linoleum in the bathroom. I expected Sammy to have called or something by now. I really didn’t want to end up calling the hospital myself, I lose a bit of credibility then, its like everyone knows you never intended to go through with it, I’ll give it ten more minutes, I feel fine. Does make you think about death though, god and every that crap. Lectured for years about religion. I always felt like a bit of a preacher at times, its ironic, the biggest atheist you’ll ever meet, and there I am, telling the stories of the bible. What a load of bollocks. Can’t even remember why I took theology now, I originally wanted to go down the whole scientific side, prove there was no god once and for every, but as I said, I’m a little bit lazy and not really very smart, so took the easy route, after a while my interest in religion completely died. I hate dinner parties, people assume I want to have an in depth discussion about god’s existence. Back in my arrogant student days, when I was full of those wonderful egotistical ideals, and I thought myself smart, I loved it, talked to anyone who’d hear about my half arsed theories. I loved seeing the shocked look on the faces of those devout religious types. Ha. Hmm, still nothing off Sam, maybe he’s on his way round. I’ll give it another five minutes, then I’ll give the hospital a bell. Damn. I was looking forward to the dramatic hammering on the door. I left the front door un-locked, you know for easy access, locked the bathroom door though, but this lock is flimsy as hell. God, feeling a bit dizzy now. The bath waters getting a bit nippy too. Christ, my head keeps doing that dropping thing, you know when you’re really sleepy and keep going to nod off but then jolt awake. Better phone the hospital; don’t want to just drain out like a spilt juice bottle. … Shit, its like, I don’t know, I can’t move my arms at every, I feel like they aren’t there. Shit Sam, I’m crying now. How pathetic I must look. It wasn’t supposed to happen like this. I wish I’d unlocked the bathroom door now. I don’t care if the lock’s shit, it’s a few seconds more. … Oh thank god, a paramedic. Paramedics wear those green jumpsuit things don’t they. “Sam? Did Sam send you?” I don’t sound like me. It sounds like I’m speaking from somewhere else in the room. I can hear the sea, like you know when you have a seashell close to your ear. I used to adore the beach. Everything’s a bit hazy but the guy’s just smiling. He has a nice grin. And eyes. I don’t know, I thought paramedic’s were supposed to be chatty. I feel relaxed though, at least someone is here. I’m not going to die alone in the bath. I can’t seem to keep my thoughts together. Feel like I’ve woken up with a killer hangover. I used to go to the beach every weekend. I say used to, like I’m not going to anymore. odd. I think I’ll go tomorrow. I try to ask the paramedic if I can go to the seaside tomorrow. He doesn’t seem to be doing much. He’s stroking my hair. Not very orthodox but it feels nice. I wonder when Sam will receive here. Where is here? My bathroom seems bigger, lighter, it was dark before, and maybe the paramedic turned the light on. I can’t look the bathroom light, it should be over me but I don’t want to move my head, the paramedic might cease stroking my hair. He really does have a lovely grin. I can hear my phone, ringing, urgently, I don’t care. How can a phone ring urgently? It rings how it always rings. I want the sound to cease; it’s distracting I’m trying to snooze. It’s fading away. I need to ask the paramedic where the ambulance is, but my mouth feels useless, nice of like my arms did. I can feel it moving. I can hear I guttural sound, like an animal. I think it might me coming from me. A death rattle? It doesn’t matter, I starting to suspect I was wrong from the start. The paramedic, not from the hospital, from another place. My angel. He won’t let me go every on my possess. I think Sam got my text. The phones ringing again, but further away this time, like it’s in another room. My angel stops stroking my head. We have to go soon, I think. Time’s ticking. Who would have thought I’d be ok with this, didn’t think I was ready. Mind you, I’ve been wrong about a lot of things. He gives me his hand and I suddenly feel full of energy. Feeling rushes back to my arms, mouth, everywhere. He walks me to the bathroom door and unlocks it. I wonder how he got in. We step out. Its time to go now. Taking a final look back at the shell I have cast aside, I wonder what to do next. I think we’ll visit the seaside. Just to clarify...im not suicidal in any way! Thank you for every the advise, although i disagree with MOST of collegew (some of your advise is sound) but you can't really argue that u know for a FACT suicide is a sin etc...God could be very forgiving. Besides, my character never intended to commit suicide therefore never activley chose to end their life. Also, the arrival of the 'angel' is supposed to b ambigous, is it really an angel or merely a hallucination in death. Maybe i need to make this distinction more obvious. though :DThanks for every the other advise however!

Resolved Question: Pressure washing a natural stone wall (UK)?
Hello. We'd like to clean the outside rock walls of our home with a pressure washer and have a few questions. 1) Are there any rock types that should NOT be cleaned with a pressure washer and are they easy to identify (eg. I've been told we should avoid Bath rock - is that true, any others?). 2) There is a cable running horizontally along one wall, so should we protect that and how? 3). If we asked a private company to do this, roughly how much would it cost for about 40 sq m. 4) Our home is on the corner of two public streets so we'd have to do it from the pavement - so do we need to receive permission from the Council (to use a powered access platform/cherry picker on the pavement, and for the jet-washing itself), and would we need to barricade off the area while we do it? Thanks (P.S. I submitted this question yesterday, but it didn't show up for some reason so I'm trying again.)

Then I wake up, then do the same routine over again. I would happily swap spots with my husband because I'm sure it would be much easier sitting in an office with a cup of coffee every day. Anyway, do you think I should 'receive a job' ? he brings home $4500 per week so we are not struggling, Also, we are living in the home I paid for before we were married!

Resolved Question: I have some questions about moving out for the first time?
Ok, right now I am only 16 but I am really hoping to move out and do it right when I am 18. So I realise these are a lot of questions, but if you can answer just one I would be more than glad!! 1. I want to buy a new car, like a hybrid, and I found a standard price for 1 of $21,500.00. Is it better to buy n full and aviod interest or to receive financed and pay less immediately but more n the long run? Also, how much would someone expect to pay as insurance for that in Alberta, Canada? 2. I want to buy a home. How much does the average home cost? Is it better to buy a previously owned home or a new home. AND what nice of home loan/morgage would be best. Which is better, rent-to-possess or a morgage? I want a home that has at least 5 bed, 2 bath, and a big yard! 3. Furnature I plan to buy myself and have delivered, after putting it on layaway.. Easy home allows you to make payments on furnature. Would it be wiser to make payments or buy in full? 4. Satalite vs. Cable? I don't watch a lot of TV but there are certain channels I would go insane if I dd not have. they are few, but still I watch them. Is it better to receive Satalite or Cable? is there any way I can make my bill smaller? How much should I be paying? 5. Internet access? What is best to receive. I want internet for lots of things and it has to be quick. How much should I be paying? 6. home warming party. Is this practical? Is it a way of maybe getting a few little things? Or is it more work than good? 7. home insurance? I have to have it as far as I know because I want to be a foster parent. What do I expect to pay? 8. Saving money. What is the best way to do this. How much should I try and have saved up before I move? When should I start worrying about work? asap? this summer? I'm sure I have forgotten so many things so anything you can tell me about personal experieces moving out that would be great! right now I am going to have maybe $10,000.00 if I moved out without getting any more money. HOWEVER I do expect to work. I tried to make myself a little list of how much money I could receive if I went back to work next month (November) making $10/h and every 3 months increasing that by $1/h. Each month I 'made' $2,080.00-$3,328.00. I made it so that I worked 8 hour shifts every day but wednesday. Then I concidered monthly expenses. every month I took out $100 for food, $100 for pet care, $40/birthday or aniversary, $200 for major holidays like x-mas, easter and halloween. $20 for ever 'day' I worked and ended up haveing my monthly expenses range $920-$1540. After subtracting my expenses from my pay I 'put' the money in an account that had 5% interest compounded monthly. my opening balance each month was the last closing balance+my earnings-monthly expenses. Then interest was calculated and then I added that to my 'opening balance' to make my closing balance. I did this from November 2008-June 2010 and had a final 'balance' of $49,007.73. This is not including any other things like money coming to me, or possible expenses like the posibility of having to pay rent to my mom, or any money I already have. Is this number realistic? I know this was a very very long question but I ask for your cooperation and patients, please give real advise and Thanks in advance :) I just need to say that an apartment, and sharing anything, is out of the question. I am going to be a foster parent. period.

Resolved Question: I have a choice as to where to deliver bubs but can't decide. What do you think?
I have two choices as to the delivery of my third baby. Here are the differences.... Normal L&D at public hospital - * quicker/easier access to drugs in labour * only have midwifes arrive when needed or wanted/called - not there 100% of the time, until the actual delivery or complications * stay in after birth for 1-3 days in a room with 3 other people and babies * normal OB doctors care until birth but not at delivery Birth Centre - Same hospital on the same floor - * Give birth in a 'homely' type enviroment with double bed, bath, kitchen etc.... * only gas and air (access to other drugs I would have to be transfered to L&D ) * one or two midwives with me the whole time plus hubby * 4-6 hour discharge after delivery * same midwife visit home daily for a week post-delivery * same midwife carer from now on, at delivery and afterwards I guess I am leaning towards the birth centre but am worried about the early discharge from the birth centre..... I really want the continuity of care from the same midwife from now till 6 weeks post delivery and if any complications arise I would be transferred to normal L&D and a doctor asap. But I'm worried about not having as easy access to the drugs if I want them and also the early discharge. If anything was wrong I wouldn't be going home that quick and every normal hospital equipment is available if needed too. Also my mum and MIL will look after other 2 kids for a day or so after delivery too. What would you do given these choices?

Resolved Question: where can I get a narrow shower screen?
My bathroom has a very awkwardly placed bath/shower. The head end of the bath is in a sort of alcove, and the shower is attached to the wall there. I need to receive a shower screen, but as the wall goes part the way along the side of the bath as it is, a normal sized shower screen would be too big and would block access completely. What I need is a shower screen which is about half the size of a normal one, or perhaps one which can minimize when not in use (but I want it to look nice). I thought this would be easy enough to find, but I am having problems! Does anyone know of anywhere in the UK that I can receive such a shower screen? I really dont want to have a shower curtain, but I do need something to cease the floor from getting sprayed! I'm in Hampshire. Thanks, Nicola

Voting Question: If John McCain were to endorse a product what would it be?
I say he could replace Robert Wagner as the spokesman for reverse mortgages, he could endorse one of those bath tubs for old people that have the easy-access door, he could endorse New Balance shoes (only the ones with the velcro though.), and maybe he could replace the Mercury girl and be a spokesman for the Mercury Grand Marquise. Any other ideas? Since SNL is doing pretty well with it's Palin sketches, perhaps they could resurrect the "Oops I crapped my pants" adult diapers sketch...it would be perfect for McCain.

Resolved Question: I would like your answer with a "what would you do" question.?
I am currently renting a 3bd,bath, home with a full basement,attached garage w/remote, full access to front/back yard, Washer/drier, Microwave, fridge included, Pet friendly (no additional charge for Duke my dog), No utilities are paid by landlord. Gas heat, sq feet below 1000. New carpet,roof,A/C in 2007 My mom had been renting it for the past 10 years, She still has tons of her things inside from a great family and became almost g/f of the landlord, till she passed away a year and a half ago. I took over the home and the payments went up a bit to $700.00 per month (from $500.00), $50.00 tardy fee after the 10th day tardy. The lights and gas cost a big chunk of change between $100.00 and $300.00 in winter, Lights reasonable i suppose about $100.00month.It is not well insulated from outside icy/heat. It is not in the best of neighborhoods, but the neighbors are quite,very friendly,and long time residents. We grew to know them well. The landlord is an incredibly wonder man,very understanding, easy to work with and quite frankly you could n't ask for a better landlord. Here is the concern: I am having trouble keeping up with the payments of utilities, and rent. I lost my good paying job and fell two months behind in rent. I finally found a job, however it pays $2.00 less per hour and I am finding it difficult if not close impossible to make ends meet. The landlord being a swell guy allows me to pay the back rent with no tardy fee at an additional $100.00 a month so now I pay $800.00 every two weeks till I'm caught up. Which i am now getting about caught up on. then it will be back to the $700.00/month. I am wondering if I should maybe downsize to an apartment for maybe below $500.00 a month and utilities should be below $100.00 for both gas/electric. I will have trouble with the dog I'm sure and have to pay for that. I will keep major $$ if i do, but give up a lot to keep maybe $400.00. I have included a link to photo pail so you can actually look the outside of the home just to receive better understanding of what I'm paying for. What would you do? Would you move? would you receive a better paying job? maybe an additionally p/t job? a roomie? What's your thoughts on this?http://s970.photobucket.com/albums/ae189/rrhorse/Home/

Resolved Question: Help with Breeding Budgies PLEASE HELP!?
Ok so I want to go ahead and start breeding my budgies. They are both about a year old and I wanna start breeding them next month. The reason I'm asking now is I want to be COMPLETELY ready for anything to happen. I have already read TONS and TONS of articles and stories about the requirements of breeding. But this will be my first time breeding and I just want to be as careful as possible. Ok so I know to give them a breeding box (duh). I'm putting it outside the cage for easy access and check up on the babies. I have already read on splayed legs and how to catch it and fix it before it become permanent. I'll be giving the hen (Yuki-chan) cuttle bone (already there), mineral block,sodium block, Egg-food and vitamins and minerals so she doesn't receive egg-bound (read on that too). I know to give her a bath (or at least a little mist everyday) to provide humidity for the eggs. I will candle the eggs and record their hatch dates. Giving them self-liner on the bottom of the bedding just to prevent splayed-legs. I'm gonna place marbles as dud eggs so she doesn't sit on them too much. I'm going to place shredded newspaper (black and white ink only) as bedding. And the hole from the nest to the cage will be high up so the babies can't fall out. I will receive an extra cage if the cock(Oh-kun) starts hurting them (I doubt he will). And am fully prepared to hand-feed any and every rejected babies (also read on that). I will be keeping every single one of them and if in any case I have to give them or some of them away (which I also doubt because my mom loves them and wants them to have babies too) I have a very good pal that I can trust will take VERY good care of them. Now question time. First, you really got this far wow thanks for your interest and patience in my problems. I have an 18x18x30in cage will that be big enough (I doubt it) or will I need to receive another? How often should I handle the babies (I know not to touch them for at least a week) but I want to handle them (for short periods of time then make them longer as they receive older) so that they receive used to me. I had another but I forgot it.-_- Is that sufficient??? If there is anything else I should know or do PLEASE tell me. THANKS OH SO VERY MUCH!!!

Resolved Question: Getting frustrated with my 19 month old b/c she keeps pooping on the floor?
I'm getting a little frustrated. For the last week she's been taking off her tug-up after she pees and bringing it to me. I'm fine with that, I clean her up and put a new one on her. She's also been taking her tug up off and pooping on the floor. I have a potty seat sitting in the middle of the kitchen/family room for easy access. She sits on it often..... She pooped twice today on the floor and I'm getting very frustrated. I know she doesn't know any better, but it's a lot of work to clean that much poop up out of the carpet,receive her cleaned up, and receive everything sanitized. The last time today my son accidentally stepped in it(I was cleaning the bathroom and didn't know she had done it). He got so upset and I had to clean his foot off in the bath tub, sanitize the bath tub, clean the carpet, wash the sheets(somehow her sheets got into it), receive Sophie cleaned up...... I spent 45 minutes getting everything cleaned up! I think she is ready for potty training! But, we are leaving for vacation in a hotel room on Saturday and I didn't want to have to post pone it or interrupt it while on vacation. I also don't want her pooping every over the hotel room(we will be spending several hours a day in the hotel room). What can I do about my frustration? I know she doesn't know better, but I should! What would you do? Thanks for letting me vent mommas! :) PS: She does this with diapers too. She knows how to tug her pants down or a dress up, so extra clothing doesn't help.

How much should I try and have saved up before I move? When should I start worrying about work? asap? this summer? I'm sure I have forgotten so many things so anything you can tell me about personal experieces moving out that would be great! right now I am going to have maybe $10,000.00 if I moved out without getting any more money. HOWEVER I do expect to work. I tried to make myself a little list of how much money I could receive if I went back to work next month (November) making $10/h and every 3 months increasing that by $1/h. Each month I 'made' $2,080.00-$3,328.00. I made it so that I worked 8 hour shifts every day but wednesday. Then I concidered monthly expenses. every month I took out $100 for food, $100 for pet care, $40/birthday or aniversary, $200 for major holidays like x-mas, easter and halloween. $20 for ever 'day' I worked and ended up haveing my monthly expenses range $920-$1540. After subtracting my expenses from my pay I 'put' the money in an account that had 5% interest compounded monthly. my opening balance each month was the last closing balance+my earnings-monthly expenses. Then interest was calculated and then I added that to my 'opening balance' to make my closing balance. I did this from November 2008-June 2010 and had a final 'balance' of $49,007.73. This is not including any other things like money coming to me, or possible expenses like the posibility of having to pay rent to my mom, or any money I already have. Is this number realistic? I know this was a very very long question but I ask for your cooperation and patients, please give real advise and Thanks in advance :) (I am putting this question in this catagory because it is one of the largest I can think of and I respect your opinions)

Resolved Question: What dog would be right for both of us? (Husband vs Wife)?
I was reading a thread earlier on a forum about how you and your spouse have opposite taste in dogs and that made me want to ask. What do would be the best for both of us: We both know what we like in a dog, maybe we don't have to compromise so much, maybe there is a breed that suits us both. Here is what My husband wants in a dog: He wants a loyal companion. A playful, yet calm dog. A dog he can go on long walks with but also settle down with the paper and now worry have to constantly receive onto my dog about being too energetic, He wants a dog that will lay at his feet or next to him. he wants a dog that is good with kids and other dogs. Trainability: Easy to train, not much of a challenge. Size: His comfort level is probably no more than 30lbs. His largest dog was a Chow Chow but he barely remembers him, and since then he had tiny dogs. Our current dog stays between 18-21lbs and she is great. Coat: A sleek coat, doesn't require much grooming. Just a bath, brushing, nail trim. Exercise requirements: Could handle two 1 hour long walks a day, but would be fine with 1 if the situation called for it. Environment: Would be an inside dog but would have access to a fenced in area to play. We are planning on buying 4 or 5 acres soon. Doesn't matter if the dog can be trusted off leash or not the only time the dog would be offleash outside is in a fenced in area. (Leash laws and every) Household: This dog would co exist with 2 adults, 1 child (a little girl), and 2 other dogs. A Terrier mix and a Poodle. Other info: We do like to travel a lot. We go to the mountains and we would like to take the dog with us when we go to the beach. Both are not common trips being that both are so far away. (Some breeds he likes, some I know are larger than 30lbs and some have different grooming requirements: Beagle, Blue Tick Coonhound, Pembroke Welsh Corgi, Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever, and Minature Schnauzer) My preferences: I want a loyal dog, with lots of energy (not excessive). I want a dog that likes to receive out and run and run. I want a dog that would be protective in nature but not too protective. Friendly but cautious with those that are strangers (nice of like my terrier). The dog must be good with kids, needs to be able to receive along with other dogs. The dog needs to be active but also needs to know to settle down when its time to settle down. I don't mind having to receive out there 2 or 3 times a day for a good walk or run with the dog. (I already do that with our Terrier) Trainability: Relatively Easy to train but I welcome a challenge. Size: I like big dogs. I would prefer not to go any smaller than 35lbs. But Definately not any smaller than 20lbs. Coat and Build: I like a dog with a short to medium coat and a dog that has a sturdy build, somewhat muscular. I also like the wolf look) Ofcourse Environment and living arrangements are the same. Other info is the same. (Some of the breeds I like are: Dalmatian (some of the best dogs I ever knew were Dals), Redbone Coonhound, Carolina Dog, Siberian Husky, Alaskan Malamute, German Shepherd, American Bulldog, Australian Cattle Dog.....just to give you some ideas in what I like) We need to find a good in between. Something that would work for both of us. Chances are we will just go down to the shelter with our daughter and find the dog that clicks with us. But we would like to have a primary breed in mind. Thanks

Resolved Question: How do you fit a pvc bath panel the side panel that is.I want to screw it into place for easy access to pipes.?
I had to receive my last panel on my bath smashed out because I changed the taps and waste pipe. I now have another bath panel and I'm wondering what is the easiest way to receive it fitted. I did already hire someone and they clip it too short so I would prefer to do it myself and try to avoid this happening again. I have bought another new panel again. Can you help me... Thanks Lads for your helpfull advise. I want to give both of you best answer. Thanks a mill.

Voting Question: How do I keep my kitten from urinating on my belongings?
My boyfriend and I got two female kittens three months ago. Lilly seems to have taken to peeing on things that are not the litter box. She peed on our bed on multiple occasions - my boyfriend and I recently upgraded to a larger mattress, complete with new sheets (and, thank goodness, a mattress cover in case the cat continued to target the bed), so this is definitely not an issue of her returning to a place because she can odor even the slightest residue of her scent, since everything was completely new. She has destroyed my favorite seat and seems to adore peeing on our bath mats - even after we replaced the ones she destroyed first. My laundry isn't safe, and I can't even provide the cats with nice soft bedding because that just gets urinated on, too. needy Maggie, my other cat, had to go through the agony of a bath the other day far too soon after her last one because she reeked of cat pee, presumably from trying to continue sleeping on their once clean, comfy bedding. I know it is Lilly because I have caught her doing her post-pee scratching ritual on numerous occasions. This is especially frustrating because she was not confined to the room, but had easy access to the nice clean upstairs litter box kept in the bathroom, only a room away. I have tried multiple variants of scent-based deterrents to keep the cats away from things, but the cats seem to actually like the scents. As a rule, the cats have been banned from the bedroom due to Lilly's urination issues, though they are occasionally able to dart into the room. If we are both in the room, my boyfriend and I sometimes allow the cats into the room and make sure to keep the door open, but Lilly has proven today that access to her litter box does not seem to be the issue. I feel bad that Maggie has to be banned from the room due to Lilly's problem, but Lilly cries if she is left outside the room without Maggie, which just serves to make Maggie worried. Plus, I do not like to keep Maggie in a room with a close door, in case she needs access to her litter box. We have a total of three litter boxes throughout the home. Short of buying yet another and keeping it in the bedroom, which I consider gross, what else can I try to help Lilly cease peeing where I don't want her to?

Resolved Question: special-needs child that's needs have changed. Can we break lease?
We live in California and have been renters (always on time with rent) at the same complex for 8yrs, and have referred other residents to this complex. We have a 6yr old daughter that has epilepsy and multiple other special-needs. Last year we moved into a duplex (same complex) thinking the larger space would be great (we also have a young son). The problem is that the bath tub is too tiny (and the toilets in the way of easy access to it) and the layout is bad. Her epilepsy seems to have altered (she's having more focal and nocturnal seizures) and our master bedroom is on the other end of the home. We have found a home that is closer to our local flame station (they're our first responders in effect of seizure, her type is status epilepticus ie potentially fatal) there are no barriers to the tub and her room is directly next to ours. The layout and even backyard are accessible by her wheelchair as well. My question, sorry this was long, in California, can a renter break their lease without penalties if they have found a more medically appropriate home that is closer to medical help? The lease is non-specific so we have to talk to them directly on breaking the lease. We just wanted to arm ourselves with knowledge and information. They are very aware of our daughter's issues and have usually been very cordial about things. She's been having focal seizures that we use her er med, but she has suffered a seizure that caused a stroke-like affect leaving her left-side virtually limp, so you never know when it'll strike again. She's also on meds that can cause respiratory distress in which case medical intervention is urgent. for them to help with the tub they would have to alter the whole configuration of the bathroom. The toilet is blocking half of the tub access. The letter is no problem, we have enough therapist and Dr's that would help in that case.
