Water is coming out of the AC unit?
Had my evaporator coil replaced 2 yrs ago, outside unit last year. AC is cooling the house fine, but tonight stepped in a puddle on the floor. The PVC pipe is gurgling water when the AC runs. Do I call a plumber or the AC guys? Anything I can do in the meantime?
How do you figure out that your wireless router has truly gone bad?
My internet acts slow with it. I hook my computer directly the modem, everything is fine. I restore the default settings of the router and the problem still occurs with no security. Has my router somewhat gone bad? I want to know before spending money. Its not that it doesn't work. Sometimes i will be doing something and it will just stop. or a page won't load fully if there's pictures. Its annoying at this point.
Another victim of the yob culture. What should be done about these out of control yobs?
Treat them as they treated him, yobs acting in groups against defenceless people are just cowards plain and simple. Put them in a closed room, on their own, with a Royal Marine or a Para and they'd be crying and snivelling for their mothers in 30 seconds. Why wasn't the law used to protect this man?

Under floor heating and laminate flooring?
I am quite sure the "laminate" is not stopping the heat from coming through, the system is not making heat,(flow but no heat), maybe have your Plumber recheck. then replace with like quality flooring, good luck Barry
Boyfriend's actions confused me.....?
My boyfriend and I have been dating for about two months. He is 32 and I am 27. We met online and really hit it off. We compliment. We had been seeing each other maybe 2-4 days a week and chatting on the phone at night. About three weeks ago or so the shower at my apartment broke and was leaking into the walls and into the ceiling below causing major problems, and it left me without a shower. I work everyday and I need a shower, and upon hearing this problem my boyfriend offered to let me stay with him until it got fixed, and I was told by the plumber it would be about a week to a week and a half tops. Needless to say, one week turned into two and it's still not fixed today. On Tuesday after getting to his apartment around 9:30, he tells me that he hates the situation I'm in but he doesn't think us seeing each other everyday at this time in our relationship is the best thing to do, and I agree, but I cannot control the situation I am in. I have inquired with the plumber every few days to no avail, so my hands are really tied and he knows that. Upon telling me this, he also says he didn't realize the transition would be so hard for me, from seeing me a few days a week to a full time relationship and he's not sure how to handle it. He said, however, when he thinks about me not being there are night with him he misses me and gets sad, but on the other hand he wants time to do his things like play his guitar and write music and be alone. He has a history of depression and I really think he's going through a hard time right now. He said we should look at this as a positive part of our relationship and not a negative one if we want our relationship to be as healthy as it can be. He told me he loved me and he genuinely cares about me and appreciates everything about me. The entire conversation he was not cold and was comforting towards me and said it was very hard to tell me this because he didn't want to hurt me because I am so kind and nice towards him. But I'm confused. Did he break up with me? Or does he still care about me and wants a little room since I've been staying with him for a few weeks? He told me he loves me and cares about me a lot, and held me and kissed me before bed that night. He said he understands I'm hurt but he'd rather be honest and communicate with me than stuff his feelings inside and grow to resent me. He called me last night to say hello and check in, and said he would talk to me today. He texted me this morning and said he wasn't going to work but to have a good day, and said take care. He is slowly ending things with me? What is he doing? He said he wants to be with me and spend time with me and he enjoys everything we have and that he feels this needs to happen or else it will be the demise of our relationship. Please offer me some advice. Thank you.

What kind of sealer to neutralize cat urine on concrete?
I have already used Nature's Miracle and Urine Off to try to get rid of the cat urine odor on concrete in basement. I need to use a sealer to seal in the remaining odor. I want a clear color. Do I use oil based or solvent based or what? I asked at Lowes and the folks there had no idea what to use for this problem. Any help is greatly appreciated....it is not for the floor...it is a cement ledge. thanks PS: If you have had success with anything- I'd love to know...very concerned about the odor.
How do I help my 14 year sister with her fear of Hitler?
My little sister is so scared to death of Hitler she can't even go outside. She is afraid Hitler will be outside even though we've tried to tell her that he's been dead a long time. It started when she had this dream about Hitler coming up through the plumbing and getting in the house so she makes us keep cement blocks on all the toilet lids and also on the washer and she will only take baths, no showers, so she can plug the hole. She says Hitler can come out of the sewer though and that's why she refuses to leave the house. I don't know what will happen when she goes back to school in August we may have to homeschool her. I don't even understand why she is afraid of Hitler in the first place since we are Japanese did she not learn any history?
Reaction to nudity at home in very modest families?
LOL! That story was really funny. If my dad saw me, he would jump a little, close his eyes and walk the other way, and my mom would just be like, "what are you doing?" It was kind of weird that you just threw the towel at her, but it sounds like it was funny.
How can I avoid heat rash in Vietnam this July?
I'm going to Vietnam for a month next weekend and I do sometimes get heat rash even in UK weather. It seems to be random, I know it can come from wearing too much clothes when it's hot but I always get it on my d�colletage area which is never covered up so I don't know how I can wear less. Would suncream prevent it at all? I've heard that it occurs if sweat glands get blocked, would sort of exfoliating the area help at all?
Is this a well pump or a hot water heater problem?
We had a big storm down south today. The "regulator" (I believe it is called) has been making the well pump cut on and off frequently as of late. This evening we had water gushing out of the hot water heater onto our floor. We cut off the well pump power and I switched off the hot water pump switch as well. I am afraid if I turn the well pump and hot water heater back on we will have all kinds of water gushing out again. I do not have the money to contact a plumber or electrician. Is the problem the well pump, the hot water heater, or now both?
Is the sealer necessary for our floor porcelain tiles we just installed? Why?
I would recommend a grout sealer as did the other person, but use the one with the applicator that allows you to only place sealer on the grout.
Ladies, why is it so hard to keep a woman happy?
This is such an extraordinarily long list. Not all women have these many items on their wish-lists! Some of the things on this list shows superficiality and are not what you would want in a girl you're with. E.g 47. Be very rich. Also any woman who is realistic will know that its virtually impossible to find a man with all these qualities, especially if you didn't manufacture him yourself! Most sensible women know that you're more likely to find men with different combinations of the qualities above. No woman is perfect and neither is any man. We all should just find the imperfections in one another that we can live with. Its not a deal-breaker if a man has some really important qualities and doesn't have other less important ones.If there are any ladies who've found men with every single one of these qualities, he would belong in a museum, because its that rare.
Cost to rennovate manufactured home?
Well the cost is totally gonna depend on your choices, however you will most likely go well over $10,000, If you are not careful the kitchen and two bathrooms will be more than that, and that is with the absolute cheapest appliances, floor covering, paint, light fixtures, etc. New roof will be close to that if not a lot more. From your description this is a very major tear down and rebuild, If I were you I would expect it to come out somewhere around $30,00 at least and likely more.
How long does frozen turkey stay good for?
I have turkey in my freezer from Thanksgiving and i'm wondering if it's still good. I have a vacuum sealer so I sealed it up and froze it the day after or a couple days after Thanksgiving. Is it still good or should I throw it out?
Do girls you like EVER tell you if they have plans to do something "special" to you?
like make it out etc. for me it seems to occur pretty spontaneously or i'll get an invite to their place for lunch and then something "magically" happens. is there any way i can tell if/when this is going to happen and when it isn't? I think the girls like to make it really spontaneous and seem unexpected.
Is it okay to dislike, maybe even hate my mom?
It's natural to feel these things sometimes, we tend to see the many faults of our family, I'm guilty of it myself. I've been really angry about the way my parents did things, raising me so sheltered and protected. But our anger blinds us to the truth sometimes. I had a talk with my family, and got their perspectives, and realized things aren't so simple, I learned so many things about them I never knew. So my suggestion is to openly have a deep discussion with them. Remember to stand your ground because your views are important too, but don't get too overly defensive and listen to their side of things too. In the end, you should come up with a suitable solution to benefit everyone. Of course, it's easier said than done, but good luck, and I understand how you feel as I've also been through it.

OMG I found mustache hairs in the sink I think my sister is right about Hitler haunting us - help me?
My sister has been convinced Hitler is in the plumbing haunting us and she won't leave the house, she takes only baths not showers so she can plug up the hole and now she has chains on the toilet. I did a "spell" I made up with her tonight in hopes it would make her feel better but it didn't work because the toilet lid opened and we heard a guy speaking German. Now I dared to go back in the bathroom and I found a bunch of mustache hairs and they are a medium brown shade and everyone in my family has black hair (we're asian) so where did they come from?
Why does my TrueCrypt volume keep remounting as read-only in Tails?

New plumbing shower has "beer flies"?
I had a complete re-do of a 1st floor bathroom. The bathtub was removed completely and replaced with a shower. The tile/plumber contractor created a new drain pan and wrapped it in rubber sheeting, up to the wall board, and then made a cut out for the drain, then poured concrete and made a p-trap of pvc below. Ever since I have noticed small flies like beer flies around the drain. I have flooded the drain with bleach, but the flies return on the walls and on the shower curtain. Anybody know what's causing them???
Credit Report. Navy Security Clearance.?
I will be training for a job in the Navy requiring Top Secret Security Clearance. I had around 5 or 6 accounts go to collections in the past 3 years. With the exception of 1 account, all accounts were under $600. Only 3 of these accounts show up on my credit report. The 3 accounts that show on my credit report I recently paid in full (including the largest account of $1,019). When they do my background check are they going to find these other accounts that I have in collections? They were small pay-day loans ($400-600 each). I would pay them off but I can't even find them. They aren't listed on my credit report and I've moved a few times since they occurred. I don't remember the names of the company I took the payday loans from either.
Why would a young, healthy women let visible beard hairs grow, instead of plucking them?
Last week, I saw my niece. She is about 35 years old, married, with 4 children. She never was one to use make-up, dye her hair or manage her weight, but she has a desk job and does keep her hygiene and dresses appropriately. When we met, she had quite some visible, thick, black beard hairs. She could not have missed them, they where very distinct. I know this is not abnormal to occur with women and off course she is entitled to let them grow and I didn't mention anything to her, that is not up to me, I think. But I just can not understand why any normal, mentally healthy, happy young women would want that. Is it possible that she just doesn't care? For me, it feels like lack of self respect. Oh well, I just don't understand. Does anyone?
99 Tahoe not starting?
MMk I've been out and about, in and out all day with the Tahoe and no problems. I go to the rec center, go inside for about 20 minutes, come out, and the Tahoe doesn't want to start. It acts like it wants to-I mean it really was trying to start, but just never kicked in. It's kinda like rarararararara, and then nothing. I noticed there was zero water in that little box that keeps coolant....I had a sealer put in about 6 months ago to keep it from losing coolant. So I put some water in there thinking maybe just maybe that would help. I go to start it again and it does the rarararararara sound and I get nothing. Then I try again and it just does a "click" like the battery is dead. I look at the battery gauge and it's very low. The battery was replaced last year...I believe. So I have someone give me a jump. We sat there for 20 minutes trying to juice it up. The gauge went up a little...just above the red line. There are two red lines. Before that it was in the border line red line. So it got a little bit of juice, but not much. Finally gave up and pushed it in the parking lot, now waiting to figure out what I should do next. Does anybody have any ideas what sounds like may be the problem??

Help with feeling jealous?
i had an event occur about 6 months ago where my wife told me a couple of guys hit on her, one on FB and the other in her office, she told the guy on FB that she was happily married and not interested and the guy at her office who had somewhat crossed the line several times, she just ignored his advances and more casually shrugged it off, she said this was because she didnt feel threatened and had worked with him for 3 years and he had only done this 2 or 3 times. My wife has been great and reassured me that there is no threat, after she could see i was feeling anxious about the guy at her work, she even told him that i knew about what he had said and that i was upset, and to knock it off. I've been happily married 12 years, my wife has done everything in her power to reassure me and yet i still feel vunerable and anxious, i imagine situations were the guy at her office is hitting on her, she told me about it some time after the first occurance. She still sits next to the one guy that hit on her several times and has a good work relationship with him again, i really want to talk to my wife about how i am feeling, i know its irrational, and i know she hasnt done anything wrong, but i am worried it will push her away knowing i am still having some problems. I know this is my problem and i know counseling is probably the suggestion, just want to know if you think talking it through again with my spouse would be a good idea.

Why does my plumbing make such a noise?
Turn the incoming stop tap down a bit. The incoming water pressure will cause the "Jumper" in the ball valve to rattle, and sound through the pipework, the washer in the tap will also do the same.

Kitchen Sink Pipes Exposed?
My aunt had all her home pipes replaced, in the kitchen she had new less than a year old pipes but the plumber said they had to be replaced because all the new pipes where PVC (yet he left the old metal shower pipes as is with PVC in certain areas). Now they took out the metal pipes and installed new PVC pipes but instead of running them thru the walls they come up from the floor and are exposed in the cabinet under the sink. Is this normal? legal? at all safe? My worry is that they could easily be broken if something pushes them.
How and what should I use to make my brick wall shiny ?
My apartment has real brick walls. The previous owner paint something on the brick walls that makes it look shiny and somewhat waxy. I want to use the same material or do the same thing with the brick wall in the other bedroom. I tried the Thomspon's Water Seal, polyurethane (clear gloss), and even the outdoor brick and concrete sealer. None of them makes it look shiny and waxy. I wonder what the previuos owner use. Please help !

Would you help a cop who is about to ticket you?
let's said this traffic cop is a well known hard-headed asshole. He pulls you over for speeding. on his way to your car, he slips and fall. He is hurt badly. (assume he didn't call for backup or check your license plate). Would you get out and help him? or speed off laughing at him because you know he's an asshole. The ticket would be $350 if this accident didn't occur.
How soon will I know if I'm pregnant?
I had unprotected sex with my boyfriend about a little over a month ago but he didn't ejaculate inside of me. (Pulled out when he felt himself getting close, finished outside of me.) My periods are fairly irregular in length but they usually occur at the end of the month. The day after the last time we had sex, I had a regular period and then about 2 weeks later I had very light bleeding that lasted about 2-3 days. Within the last week, I've been feeling constantly tired, experienced frequent nausea and get horrific dizzy spells several times a day. Along with that, I find myself having to urinate quite frequently, especially at night. (I paid attention to the clock last night when I tried to go to bed. I got up every 20 minutes for about 2 hours.) On top of that, I didn't get a regularly scheduled period, but I thought the bleeding earlier in the month was it. Now, with these symptoms, (and obsessive Googling) I'm beginning to fear it may have been implantation bleeding. Is it too soon to know?
What could this be?? Help!!?
Depending on your age, it could just be fluctuating hormones. If you are worried, maybe ask your doctor.

I am really keen on doing the course and hopefully making a better life for me and my family, does anyone know if a grant is in question and if so where and how I can apply for such a grant.

Do you agree or disagree with Gov. Ed Randell?
He said the greatest job growth "in the century" occurred when Clinton raised taxes. I believe the job creation count he stated was 23 million. He also said, in dealing with debt, Clinton had a 50/50 approach in that 50% of the package was cuts in spending and the remaining 50% in revenue generation. And, according to Randell who was there at the time, this all worked very well for the overall economy. Your thoughts?

What is the best, but affordable cd/dvd repair kit?
I tried a Maxell repair kit that has a spray cleaner and a scratch sealer, but it never worked. I tried a kit that had a strange buffer, where it opens like a portable cd player, you put the disc in upside down and close the lid, then hold the knob on the top and crank the buffer. Well it didn't work either and actually made scratches worse. I normally take seriously scratched cds/dvds to our local pawn shop to have resurfaced, but at $2-$3 per cd/dvd gets expensive. So where could I get a cd/dvd repair kit that actually works but at a decent price of under $100 maybe.

What should I use to seal paper mache to make it strong?
Epoxy is probably your best bet. It is very durable and will harden nicely around your mask. Epoxy also protects against the elements well and it should be fine to take your mask outside. I'm not sure sure about the paint, but acrylic might work well over the epoxy. You should also consult an associate for advice at whatever store you will buy the epoxy at. I hope that this helped!

Can I use a wood polyurethane coating to cover tile/grout on a bar?
The guy at Lowe's said instead of a sealer he recommended a polyurethane coat to protect the tiles in case a glass is slammed down or something to prevent a tile getting cracked or chipped. It made sense so we went with that. The can he picked out for us says it's for wood though. The directions don't mention it being used for grout or tile anywhere. My question -is it still ok for us to use polyurethane? And if so did he just hand us the wrong kind of polyurethane on accident?
My sink faucet continues to drip even after the water valves to the sink have been shut off. Help, please!?
It's a two-handled sink faucet. It's been leaking for about a month now. It's a very slow drip, but still a problem. I've already examined and cleaned the spout of the faucet. Even after I shut off the hot and cold water valves to the sink, the water still continues to drip. Turning the handles to drain the pipes of leftover water and shutting them off again, the faucet still continues to drip. I do not want to have to pay a plumber to fix this problem, but I have no idea what the problem could be. Help, please!

How long does frozen hamburger stay good for?
Back in December I bought some bulk hamburger and I divided it into a bunch of one pound bags then I used my vaccuum sealer to seal up the bag and I froze them. I'm just wondering if they're still good since it's almost June. The meat looks a different color than it does when it's fresh (when it's fresh it's a dark red but now it's a light red) but i'm thinking that's just cause it's frozen. Anybody know if it's still good and how long it's gonna be good for??

What's wrong with my Facebook account?
This problem occurred today, and yesterday. I logged into facebook, like I normally do, and I tried to open my chat window. It didn't open all the way, it just froze, so I reloaded the page and tried the same thing again, and nothing. And it's not that no one was online, because it said on the bar "Chat (47)." And even when I looked to the left side, I didn't my friends' pictures like I usually do. So I thought that was odd. So then I tried to click the notification picture to view my notifications. It did the same thing! It FROZE! And I did the same thing again, I reloaded the page, and it happened again. So then I tried to scroll down my news feed, and usually when I scroll down my news feed, it runs down smoothly, but this time I had to press the downward arrow. And when I pressed it guess what happened? NO, it didn't freeze, it just pushed me back up to the top of the page! And plus, it didn't even show me anymore posts! Then I tried to look at one of my friend's pictures and it froze! I don't know how this problem happened and I don't know what to do! I know facebook has been changing a little, and it might be due to that, but I am an AVID facebook-er, and I can't stand the fact that I can't check my notifications, or see what my friends are doing! So if there's anything that I can do ASAP, please, PLEASE, let me know!
What happens if I accidentally put injector cleaner in my transmission?
I bought injector cleaner for my truck and transmission sealer for my transmission. I didn't have my glasses on when I went to put the transmission sealer in and accidentally put the injector cleaner in the tranny. I probably should do a transmission flush but am wondering if it'll even have any ill effects? Anybody out there do anything this stupid before?

Auto paint problems with basecoat\clearcoat?
I recently painted my 96 z28 the clear was chipping very bad so I sanded the entire car and shot it with BC\CC well it looked great until it rained the next day. it had deep blue waterspots under my clear I freaked out dummy me started tring to sand them out of the hood only thank god, it wasent doing any good so I had to work the next couple days the next day I was off I went out to look at it agan and the spots where all gone I was very happy they where gone but i still have to redo the hood because i went through the clear. I sanded the hood and shot another basecoat on it all around the spot I went to deep was wrinkeling up looked bad,I think it was because the solvents in the new paint caused the first base to soften, any suggestions I can solve this problem?????? Do u think if I sanded than shot sealer over the intire panel would help???

You might want to talk it out with a doctor, preferably a mental health specialist, the internet isn't the best spot for problems like that.
If someone has a bad memory, do you tell them?
My Dad and Granny have horrible memories. They both tell the same stories every time you talk to them. They get stories so twisted, and just seem generally confused no matter how many times you try to tell them how something actually occurred. For instance, I told my dad that my cousin "Heather" told me something which gave away a surprise party for me and the next time I talk to him, he says my friend "Tiffany" is the one that told me, and is insistant upon it, and has even told my Granny and others that "Tiffany" blew the surprise for me. He goes on talking about how bad my Granny's memory is and says "Tell me when mine is that bad" BUT IT ALREADY IS! It's so frustrating talking to them because they go on for hours with the same exact stories every time we talk. I think it's rude to tell him that his memory IS that bad, if not worse than Granny's. Should I tell him that he does have memory problems??
Should I prime my walls before painting?
I was planning on using behr premium plus ultra so I didnt have to prime the whole inside of my house (we recently bought a house and the ENTIRE inside needs painting) the people that lived there before had pets and let them pee/poo in the house so we are also trying to kill the smell. Someone recommended that I use kilz primer and sealer to keep out the smell as well then use regular behr paint. Would you recommend this as well?
How do you take a NIBCO #52 frostproof faucet apart?

Using Kilz primer before painting while pregnant?
My husband and I need to get the baby's nursery done before our baby shower so we have a place to put everything. The room will be very well ventilated and I will be wearing a mask. It's Kilz 2 Latex primer/sealer/stainblocker and is water based so it should be fine to use right? The paint we will use will also be latex water based but will not be kilz brand.
Is it possible for an email to not arrive...?
I sent an email to someone in my address book and he said that he did not receive it , though the address was the same one I have used before and also since then with no problems. The message appeared in my sent folder and I did not receive a mail error email from Yahoo. He had no reason to pretend he did not receive it as it was an offer of work for him as he is a plumber and he does many jobs for my company. So what happened to my email..?

How much does it cost to fix a heating/cooling duct in a house?
Oh yeah, there's metal in there. In the form of a long slinky spring like support for the duct work. If it needs to be cut, a coupling can be placed in the line and foil tape must be used. A layer of mastic wouldn't hurt...

And if it can how could I do that?
What does it mean if you dream about Hitler in your toilet haunting your plumbing?
I read a question from someone else who said her little sister had this dream and now she's scared to go outside or take showers and she put bricks and chains on the toilet. I had the same dream a few months ago but I didn't really get freaked out by it (probably since I don't believe in ghosts and spirits) but I was wondering if this dream means anything psychologically?
Can you install a toilet anywhere you want?
I bought a house I want to remodel. The bathrooms have kind of a strange layout. Can I just pick a place to have a plumber/contractor install a new toilet, or can it only be in a certain area? It is a one-story home.
My tub fills up with water and almost overflows when I shower...what do I do?

Cost to rennovate manufactured home?
Well the cost is totally gonna depend on your choices, however you will most likely go well over $10,000, If you are not careful the kitchen and two bathrooms will be more than that, and that is with the absolute cheapest appliances, floor covering, paint, light fixtures, etc. New roof will be close to that if not a lot more. From your description this is a very major tear down and rebuild, If I were you I would expect it to come out somewhere around $30,00 at least and likely more.
Can you carry vacuum sealed soup on the trail?
My wife and I are planning a backpacking trip for 6 days 5 nights. We were debating the food we wanted to carry, and her grandmothers soup is one of our favorite "quick" foods. (She normally cans it for us before winter) We want to know if we can seal it with a FoodSaver vacuum sealer, will it last us about a week? (It's about a day trip between her house and the park) Also, I know all about dehydrating, but I would like to know what would be useful to vacuum seal and carry. Any meal plans or ideas would be nice also, thanks ahead for all *useful* answers.
I have a 24 inch rim, and it obtained a crack. can this crack be removed by weliding the rim back together?
All you can do is take it to a weld shop and see what they say. Some metals can't be welded and some can. If the rims bent by the crack maybe they can straighten it but if the whole rim is bent then it's junk.
Has anyone used OPI Axxium Gel system at home?
I purchased it recently and have done it on myself and wanted to know other people's experiences with it. I bought a regular 9w UV light and it takes FOREVER to cure. Also it says after applying the UV sealer to wipe with NAS 99...but when I do this it ruins the shine. What am I doing wrong here?

Sealers for wood/sand crafts?

What type clear coat will not yellow?
I am painting a cocktail table top a cream color. The paint I have now is a latex paint. I put a poly sealer on the top to make it more durable, because I read online that poly typically doesn't turn yellow. Well...within a week, my top was completely yellow. I even used the type of poly that someone on here said would NOT yellow. So my question is...what is the best way to get a durable table top in the color I want? What is the best sealer that will not yellow & not be sticky?
Is there a sealer for chrome?

I was wondering is there something I can put on it so is will seal it and not chip anymore?
How do i prep for a painting and everything?
i know how to paint, ive done it before, but as a very young artist with no classes ever taken, i want to know how to do it professionally/correctly. first of all, before you paint should you paint the whole canvas black so you will have completely covered it in paint and theres no thin areas once your done? and if so, i have done this but the black paint wouldnt lay on evenly no matter what ive done. secondly, is there some sealer or something you should put on it after you are finished? and what about the coats, how many should there be? thanks!
I am re-doing the floor on my boat.?
The floorboards and transom were completely rotted out of my boat when I got it. It’s a 1977 Galaxy 17ft 175hp. Right now I’m putting down pressure treated plywood for the floor, I couldn’t afford the marine grade. But when I have it all down I want to fiberglass over the whole thing to make sure no water ever gets in there again. Are there any sealers out there that are better than glass or is that my best bet. I was toying with the idea of using rhino shin, like in truck beds, but I don’t know how that would work out. But I will have marine grade carpet down over it when its all done so texture and looks won’t matter.
How to connect hand shower to sink faucet?

Baby teeth decay: how is it treated on the front teeth?
I noticed some shallow brownish spots right on the front surface of my two-year-old son's upper front teeth. They are close to his gums, but they don;t touch the gums. At first I thought they were just enamel stains, but after a closer look and doing some research, I think those are small cavities. I'll be calling a dentist for an appointment tomorrow, but I am very nervous and cannot sleep. How can those cavities be treated if they are so shallow? I think regular fillings could just fall out! Will my son needs crowns? Can the procedure be delayed (by doing something temporary - like a sealer) until he is a little older (3 years old or so)? If he needs crowns, will they have to put him under general anesthesia? We have a medical insurance, but no dental insurance. Would the medical insurance normally cover anesthesia? Than you for your help; I am very concerned.
How often do things like this happen?
Far more often then the train companies would like. You were speechless because of the conductor not sounding the horn again? I would be speechless over the disreguard for their own safty. But some people take too much for granted.
Found mold in my basement apartment, green with white fluffy stuff?
I was away from home for a couple of weeks, and when I came home today I walked into a very smelly, damp feeling apartment. I've only lived here since March, but since the weather has warmed up I did notice it was very cool and damp all the time - I was kind of relieved with the cool air, didn't need to buy an air conditioner, but the dampness concerned me a bit. Anyway, after cleaning almost everything in my apartment, it still smelled very strongly, kind of like sewage but more just like something rotten. I looked around and came across a big patch of green mold in my bedroom, just above the baseboards, and it looked like it was growing down under the carpet and smelled awful. I also noticed that it was right below one of my windows, and I do remember one day about a month ago that I was out and left the window open and there was a big downpour - but when I came home there didn't seem to be that much wetness, I cleaned up most of it anyway, I don't know if that's what it is. I've had plumbing problems in this place already as well so I'm wondering if the pipes could be leaking under the floor making the carpet damp. I'm staying at my boyfriends now and took my pets with me, but I'm feeling really off, like nauseous and really tired with a headache. I'm going to contact my landlord tomorrow, but should I be concerned about how I feel right now or will it subside? Thanks

How long does it take to tranfer funds?
Hi I have two accounts with different banks. When I usually transfer funds between them it takes about one business day. If I transferred money on a friday when do you believe the transaction would occur? For some gut reason I am thinking the funds would not be in my account until Tuesday as it requires one whole business day. However I may be wrong. Thanks

How much is the cost to build an electrical system for a house?
The house I am trying to purchase does not have an electrical system or it has been obsolete. It's a house built around 1900 or 1920. It has been occupied in the late 90's though so it had to have modern systems. I'm not sure what happened to it though. Do I contact an electric provider for my city? Should I look for an independent electrician on craigslist? The house is very small; 2 bedrooms and one bathroom, around 700 square feet. It's consider a shell home. I just need the 2 necessities (electricity and plumbing) to work with it with renovation so I can get productive. Who do I call to have an electrical system installed or built for the house?

Why does grout for new wall tile darken upon getting wet, after my installer claimed he sealed them?
Is this normal depending on the type of sealer...or were they not sealed or is moisture from the tiling and/or grouting still trying to get out? He waited 2 days after grouting to seal. I wasn't around so I don't know for sure if he really sealed them, but water does bead up on the tile itself in spots.

Why did my OLYMPUS T20 Flash make a loud POP/SNAP sound?
This flash was working just fine right when I bought it. I took several shots with it until a random POP/SNAP sound occurred seconds after I turned it off. I turned it back on to see if the charged light would appear, but it never seemed to come back on anymore. I opened up the flash and saw many wiring inside connected to a circular cylinder black object. I tried to take the tape off the circular object and the POP noise happened again in my face. When I turn it on, I can still hear a sound as if it's trying to get charged but it's not apprehending to it's fully functioning process.. What could be wrong? I have no background information towards flashes what so ever.. I would really like some help.. anything please! :)

Deathly Hallows part 1 question?
i was watching the Deathly Hallows part 1 and when it got to the point where Hermoine, Ron, and Harry were trying to destroy Voldemorts locket it occurred to me that wouldnt they have been able to destroy it if they would have cast the cruciatus curse at it? cause i remember specifically reading in atleast one of the books that if you cast the torture curse at a "non-living" object it would just shatter the object to pieces.

Is Bells Palsy more likely to occur during pregnancy if I have already had it in a previous pregnancy?
Im 29 years old and just found out I am pregnant with my third child. During my second pregnancy, toward the end, I noticed a weakening in the right side of my face and was then diagnosed with bells palsy. Fortunately I recovered after only a few weeks, which included being on a steroid treatment. Its been just over 2 years and I am now pregnant with my third child and was wanting to know if I am more likely to get Bells Palsy again. I never suffered from it during my first pregnancy, only my second. Although it didn't last long it was still quite distressing and would hate to go through it again.
Please help statistics?
A local energy provider offers a landowner $180,000 for the exploration rights to natural gas on a certain site and the option for future development. This option, if exercised, is worth an additional $1,800,000 to the landowner, but this will occur only if natural gas is discovered during the exploration phase. The landowner, believing that the energy company’s interest in the site is a good indication that gas is present, is tempted to develop the field herself. To do so, she must contract with local experts in natural gas exploration and development. The initial cost for such a contract is $300,000, which is lost forever if no gas is found on the site. If gas is discovered, however, the landowner expects to earn a net profit of $6,000,000. Finally, the landowner estimates the probability of finding gas on this site to be 60%. a. Formulate a payoff table that specifies the landowner’s payoff (in dollars) associated with each possible decision and each outcome with respect to finding natural gas on the site. b. Use PrecisionTree to identify the strategy that maximizes the landowner’s expected net earnings from this opportunity.
What is my ex doing with me?
You guys may be meant for each other. There are obviously still feelings between you two. If you really love her take your time to feel her out. But be careful not to wait in vain. If she seems to be stringing you along don't make the mistake if being delusional and making excuses for her being distant or dating other people. You don't want to miss out on a potential woman who does want you while ur waiting around for your ex :/.

How can I eliminate air in my water lines?
A few mo.s ago I had my house water tank replaced. A few days later I noticed a very small leak from one of the solder joints. The leak stopped a wk later. I am still getting air in the lines. For over 30 yrs I never had air in the lines, so it has to be coming from one of the solder joints. Can I wrap the joints with teflon tape the cover the tape with say pvc compound or pipe sealer or something else? I told the co. about it. But I NEVER let someone give me an inferior job twice.
How To Clean Grout Sealant Residue?
try white spirits or some other type of solvent, test it on a piece of tile first to make sure it does'nt spoil the finish on your tiles.
What to do to help my dirty tile floors?
You can always put runners over the high traffic areas. But, if you want to really fix the problem i would steam clean them again, and/or use a tile cleaner from a hardware store or tile store. Be sure you purchase the right tile cleaner for your tile. The employees should be apply to help. After you throughly cleaned the tiles, try re-sealing them and the grout. If you seal your tiles and grout it should protect them from getting dirt dug into them. But, before you reseal them you need to make sure they are truly 100% clean otherwise all the other dirt and grim will be stuck inside the seal. If possible, you may want to hire a professional tile cleaning company to clean them before sealing.

Is this against tenants privacy rights? If so, ADVICE PLEASE!?
I live in an apartment complex in TN. I recently had surgery and ALWAYS make sure I lock my front door when my partner is at work. I wouldn't be able to fend off an intruder if need be. Anyway, this past Saturday after my partner left, I locked the front door and jumped in the shower. Ten minutes later, I heard a VERY loud banging sound right before I got out. I put on a towel and walked into my living room. The very first thing I did was check the front door, which I found to be unlocked. I then proceeded to look out of my windows to see my maintenance man, running like a madman to his truck. He got in, then took off like a bat out of hell. I locked the door again and called the office. I didn't get anyone directly, so I went down there. The associate who was there said she did receive a plumbing work-order for apt 305 and he could have gotten the numbers mixed up, despite working here for the past 20 years. I've worked in property management and said I can totally understand that. I then asked her what type of problem 305 was having. She said 305 didn't have any water pressure, that the maintenance man was POSSIBLY checking my unit to see if this was the cause of the problem OR, that he was "looking for something else." Thinking this was odd, seeing as 305 isn't on my side of the building, I said okay, I just wanted to make sure he just wasn't coming in just because. She then said, he always knocks and announces himself before coming in and never enters without your permission, or if you are not there. Okay, but that is exactly what happened. I didn't answer my door or give him permission to enter and he did anyway, while I was in the shower. 305 is WAY down the hall and is directly across from 306. Wouldn't it have been a little more logical to check the closest units first, instead of one that is 3 units down? If this WAS the case, why did he slam my door, leave it unlocked, speed off in his truck, rather than waiting outside my door for a couple of minutes and then re-knocking, to check my unit? There are over 250 units in my complex, split between 7 buildings and he just decided to check mine just because? That and he was possibly looking for something else? Like what? I'm not buying it. This isn't the first time I've come home to an unlocked door, while everything in my apartment is either on, or things were thrown around, but never taken. They said they can change my locks, but what good is that when maintenance would have a key? My mom said to put a chain latch on the inside to use when I was inside, but that wouldn't keep anyone from coming in while I'm gone. I looked into tenant privacy laws in TN, while no specified times are listed, it did say the landlord or other persons cannot enter without permission, unless it is an emergency situation or at the minimum a 24 hour written notice. Fire, severe water leak, extermination, etc. What do you think? This definitely seems illegal to me. What would be the best way to prevent this from happening? Worst case scenario, I'll have to pay almost $600+ to break my lease early. I've lived here for a little over two months.

What are my tenant rights in tennessee?
I have recently moved from florida to tennessee, I have a little apartment in oak ridge. I have a full time job and a semi- disabled partner who would be unable to defend himself in case of emergency and is very juggernaut about keeping the door locked at all times. Well over the past two months there have been several instances where we have come home anf found the door unlocked, and odd things have happened. Like important personal files on my computer being left open, and the channels on my television being changed to shows that me and my partner do not watch. The most recent occurence has been when he was home alone and in the shower, someone entered our apartment, and then ran like a bat out of hell when they noticed he was home. He saw the maintanance man leaving so fast he almost missed him. The office gave us some bs excuses about how he came in to check and apartments plumbing, to a unit 302, which we checked and that unit isnt even in the same building. He is now very fearful of someone coming in why we arent herem and he has not slept in two days. Literally, he is so scared that when i walk back in from having a cigarette he jumps, even though he knows im am out there. I would like to knwo what we should do about this situation?... Is there any way that this would be seen as a breach of contract by the court system?.. Im willing to do what it takes to find us a more suitable home.

What is the current situation of the French educational system?
Actually there is also the same problem in France, a deficit in professional studies and jobs. Carpenter or plumber are popular, but being a waiter or a cleaner is hard (in big companies a cleaner would work from 4pm to 7pm, before the arrival of the other workers, a waiter would work on evenings), so it is hard to manage a family life.

Is this against tenants privacy rights? If so, ADVICE PLEASE!?
I live in an apartment complex in TN. I recently had surgery and ALWAYS make sure I lock my front door when my partner is at work. I wouldn't be able to fend off an intruder if need be. Anyway, this past Saturday after my partner left, I locked the front door and jumped in the shower. Ten minutes later, I heard a VERY loud banging sound right before I got out. I put on a towel and walked into my living room. The very first thing I did was check the front door, which I found to be unlocked. I then proceeded to look out of my windows to see my maintenance man, running like a madman to his truck. He got in, then took off like a bat out of hell. I locked the door again and called the office. I didn't get anyone directly, so I went down there. The associate who was there said she did receive a plumbing work-order for apt 305 and he could have gotten the numbers mixed up, despite working here for the past 20 years. I've worked in property management and said I can totally understand that. I then asked her what type of problem 305 was having. She said 305 didn't have any water pressure, that the maintenance man was POSSIBLY checking my unit to see if this was the cause of the problem OR, that he was "looking for something else." Thinking this was odd, seeing as 305 isn't on my side of the building, I said okay, I just wanted to make sure he just wasn't coming in just because. She then said, he always knocks and announces himself before coming in and never enters without your permission, or if you are not there. Okay, but that is exactly what happened. I didn't answer my door or give him permission to enter and he did anyway, while I was in the shower. 305 is WAY down the hall and is directly across from 306. Wouldn't it have been a little more logical to check the closest units first, instead of one that is 3 units down? If this WAS the case, why did he slam my door, leave it unlocked, speed off in his truck, rather than waiting outside my door for a couple of minutes and then re-knocking, to check my unit? There are over 250 units in my complex, split between 7 buildings and he just decided to check mine just because? That and he was possibly looking for something else? Like what? I'm not buying it. This isn't the first time I've come home to an unlocked door, while everything in my apartment is either on, or things were thrown around, but never taken. They said they can change my locks, but what good is that when maintenance would have a key? My mom said to put a chain latch on the inside to use when I was inside, but that wouldn't keep anyone from coming in while I'm gone. I looked into tenant privacy laws in TN, while no specified times are listed, it did say the landlord or other persons cannot enter without permission, unless it is an emergency situation or at the minimum a 24 hour written notice. Fire, severe water leak, extermination, etc. What do you think? This definitely seems illegal to me. What would be the best way to prevent this from happening? Worst case scenario, I'll have to pay almost $600+ to break my lease early. I've lived here for a little over two months.

What's the best splint end sealer product to use?
Alright, so I have a few split ends. I just got a haircut but i still noticed some split ends and my mom won't make me another appointment.

I really don't want to waste my time or money, and I would just like to at least help my splint end problem! Thank you for helping! <3<3<3<3
How can I make my new Travertine tiles more shiny?
The tiles are of the honed and filled type and have yet to be sealed with an impregnator. The majority of the tiles are in a wc room - walls and floor with (electric underfloor heating) and some in bathroom (floor with elec underfloor heating) and around basin and bath area. I have tried sanding a spare tile with 200/400/800 and 1200 paper with water but can hardly get any sheen on it at all. I am looking for a semi-gloss to gloss finish. Would like to use a low maintenance sealer ie reapplying no less than every 2-5 years if poss. If it requires extra polish on top of that then am willing to apply that more often. Thanks!

Spilled some blacktop sealer on concrete. Any way to remove or lighten it?
dampen a rag with turpentine or mineral spirits to get the majority of it up. that portion which has worked its way into the pores or grain of the surface you'll have to use a scrub brush and apply the solvent a little more liberally. then using a clean rag blot up the remaining sealer.
Without calling a plumber, is there any way to unclog a slow draining kitchen sink.?
A plunger, working it up and down in the water, can loosen the problem area. Taking the drain apart, under the sink, is pretty easy. Have a bucket and towels, though.

You have a blown head gasket.That's what the white smoke is from.Don't drive it any more than absolutely necessary.You could cause the head to crack, if it isn't already.Put the stop leak in won't help.It will just plug up the coolant system.
Second Apartment adventure, question about renters history?
Ok, so I am about to move into my own apartment pretty soon, for the second time. The first attempt was a cluster-f**k like I have never seen in my life. I moved into this place a while back, about 5 months ago and the people that managed the utilities up there were ridiculous- I could never get ahold of them, they overcharged me, had one single guy managing the water for this entire little community and even when I did get ahold of him and pay my deposit they did not hook up my water. The Electric company was only slightly better in the fact that I did manage to get it turned on at last. But the water guy continued to send me bills, even though I had used exactly none of his services whatsoever. My propane tank was busted, had a missing part so I couldn't get heat either. After a month or two of living like a cave man in a deep freeze, I got fed up and left, in full "screw it" mode, even though I had a few months left on my lease. The guy I was renting from never pursued it, presumably since I bought him new plumbing after the old froze and busted. My question then is when I try to rent this new place, is there any way for them to check out my less than stellar history of renting? I know I wasn't exactly professional with what i did. I have learned my lesson- namely don't rent anywhere in hick a** Show Low, Arizona unless you have a lot of patience and money.
Who would you rather date?
A geologist, why? Because he'll know things I was never interested in and I can learn from him! Then again, a teacher is good, too... but a geologist would seem more exciting.
Am i to old to be an apprentice worker?
Whether you'd want to be a plumber, electrician and any other trades, you need to go to school for it. Apprentices are hired through the training institutions. The training program for plumber is usually shorter as opposed to electrician's program. Companies do hire final stage apprentices for them to complete their license requirement.
Why was I asked this by the traffic cop?
Earlier this evening I was pulled over while returning home from a trip. The officer, in addition to asking to see my license, asked if there was a phone number I could be reached at in the event that they have any questions for me. I've gotten speeding tickets before, but no one was ever asked for my number. Why would the officer do that? And what questions could they possibly ask? I was driving with a valid license, my insurance is paid up, and my registration and inspection sticker are up to date. What else is there for them to inquire about? This incident occurred in Jefferson Parish, if I remember correctly, in Louisiana. Sorry, don't have the ticket right in front of me; it's still in the car. Don't know if it's relevant, but I just thought I'd mention it just in case.

Do i need to put sealer on glass tile in the shower?
Recently I had my bathroom renovated. My contractor did not put sealer over glass tile in the shower; he says a grount works like a cement & its enough. Anyone has any thoughts about that? Thank you!
Which do you recommend for protecting concrete from digging animals, vinyl tile, sealing, or something else?
Home depot or Lowes sells Epoxy garage floor kits. It's a 2 part mix that is pretty thick. Once mixed you don't have a lot of work time so you squeegee it out real thin and then go over it with a dry roller to spread it evenly. It has some fumes so you want to ventilate the area. The next day you will basically have a plastic coating on the floor that will last forever and will clean up easy.

I just need to find out which wiring harness I need to connect my harness('s) from the stock side to the deck side harness.. I understand they make a harness but there are three coming off the stock side, and the connector harness I found only comes with one harness? and I bought a Scosche pn: FD3090 dash kit to plumb in the new deck but it is too wide to fit into the stock din, I need a solution to these two problems, any advise or part #s would be greatly appreciated.
Why so low compression in my diesel Jetta.?
The fact that you found sealer on the head gasket shows you that this car was worked on by people who had NO IDEA what they were doing. Therefore, you have to assume that nothing was done right. I doubt there is any problem with the rings. 99% of the problems on these engines are the heads and head gaskets. You need to recheck the head for straightness and flatness, and vacuum check the valves to make sure they are actually seating. Clamping pressure is CRITICAL on these engines, The head bolts are not reusable and MUST be replaced EACH time they are torqued down. The same thing is true of the head gasket itself, it must ALWAYS be replaced if it's been torqued down. I bet what happened is they used the old head bolts, which stretched, and they lost clamping force, which let the gasket leak. They may even have used the old gasket! Check that head and put it together right, and it will probably work. The other thing that is absolutely crucial is injection timing. If they did anything to mess up the valve timing, the engine won't run right.

Did I have a paranormal experience?
I would say that it is certainly possible and most likely that something was in that room with you. And as for the goose bumps I think that has a bit to do with the cold spot in the room of whatever was in there and also with being scared.

I'm worried for my future. PLEASE HELP :(?
well first. you"re not your cousin and that's that. secondly if you know you are acting badly, then stop acting badly. YOU are in charge of your behavior thirdly some people work with their hands and that sorta thing is just better for them "school learning" isn't for everyone. if it were we wouldn't have a single mechanic or farmer. but we gotta have cars that run and food to eat. you do need to work out why you arent get the marks if you "have it in you" and you need to work on why you"re fighting. see if someone can give you one of those tests that "read" your answers and give you information on what you would probably be good at. maybe your school counsler can tell you where to get a test, dont know if they are online or not.

Constantly tired 3year old & mood change?
My son is 3years old, his normally a happy playful child, argues to go to bed like any child. His bed time is 7.30 but wont drift off til about 8-8.30pm. He has 12hour sleeps so he will wake about the same time in the morning give or take. Usally he plays til about 10.30-11am & then he is tired again usally he will sit on the lounge & just fall sleep for 2 or so hours then wake up play again & try to go back to sleep. This hasnt happened before so when it started to occur it caught me by suprise. His mood towards me has changed his tone of voice is alot more aggressive towards me & before asking him to pick up his toys was no problem now he will come up & punch me & tell me no. I dont wanna go to the doctors just as yet as i have monitored his behaviour & sleep pattern for the past 3 days but if anyone has experienced this before & could lead me into the right direction with it would much be appreciated. Ive also noticed when he gets tired he gets extremly large & black circles under his eyes it almost looks like someone has hit him
Can I mix concrete and premium driveway sealer to form a strong but flexible patch?
Here is the plan. If I take crack resistant cement mix and add acrylic fortifier to make a very thick concrete mix and then mix it with asphalt sealer (premium kind with polymers) in the ratio of 2 parts acrylic fortified concrete mix to 1 part driveway sealer, mix well and apply to the weaker parts of the blacktop that have either formed depressions or shallow potholes. Do you think this fix will provide the flexibility of acrylic and polymer asphalt and the strength of concrete. Has anyone tried this? How about re-sufacing the entire driveway with this mix (about 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick)? Please let me know what you think.

Header tank question?
the header tank is the smallest ..but in most cases very little water is drawn off the header tank to fee..d a system ..that's not the way to go ...so drain some water out of a rad ..holding ball valve up in header tank ..you do not want to add water yet ..before this you add the fernox to header tank ..give it a mix ..then do the draining bit ...all water in tank should then get into system ..then refill tank by releasing ball valve ...but pinholes in rads is not good ..either over pumping and getting oxygen into system or electrolysis
Driveway sealing sprinkled on concrete walkway how do you remove?
I got my driveway sealed by local driveway sealers. They sprayed tar on it. It was a windy day. I noticed when they were done there was a couple sprinkles of tar on my concrete walkway nothing horrible. I wanted to remove it but the guy said if I touch it, it would smear bad. Usually when stuff happens they say attend to it immediately but not in this case? What can I do to remove these sprinkles of tar that got on my driveway? I heard gas could work is this correct? What is my best method and when should I attend to it?

What can I use as a sealer/paint on my aquarium background?
I recently finished making a 3d background for my aquarium. I used stryofoam and carved rocks and caves into it. Now I need to find a non toxic coating to finish it with. I am a bit implusive and didn't research the end finishing! Is the Quickcrete that some people use really non toxic? I would hate to endanger my fish. I appreciate any input anyone can give me. Thanks.
Why is my oil pressure gauge not working right?
I have a 1989 Chevrolet Silverado K1500 4x4 with a freshly completely rebuilt 350 (tbi) that has a .030 bore. I had this problem before I rebuilt the engine, and I assumed the problem when I found the oil pressure sensor (for the gauge) under the distributor had a broken fitting from the previous owner trying to fix that engine (i will not go into that lol) but I got a new fitting and sensor installed it with teflon thread sealer and all that such. The engine has a new oil pump that I know works and works well and was installed properly, I know the shaft from the distributor to the oil pump is installed properly and has the small plastic piece installed properly on that also. I know the oil sensor next to the oil filter is also good. I checked all wiring connectors. I currently now have 213 grandma driven miles on the engine, now here's whats going on, when I first started the engine the pressure was between 30 & 60 and stayed close to 60 when out on the highway and close to 30 when stopped or moving at a slow speed. Now when i start it, it is at about 15 the engine runs for a few mins then nothing but a "check gauges" dummy light it shows no pressure. What could be causing this problem im kinda at a dead end tryin to figure this out? Can I get a mechanical gauge to install under the hood?
Smoking before otoplasty (ear pinning)?
It is advisory to stop smoking for 2 weeks prior to any surgery I had a minor op last month and to be honest if you could stop just for 2 weeks you might as well quit so I continued to smoke as normal up to the morning of my surgery where I only had half a cigarette about 2 hours before I was due onto the ward it can cause breathing difficulties when having general anaesthetic which is 1 of the reasons you are advised not to smoke before hand also its said that healing takes longer but its not anything to worry about as its not life threatening if you didn't stop smoking
How much should it cost to replace the pan in my shower?

Would my mother be in trouble if I told the psychotherapist? Or can you help? (Violence in relationships)?
Your parent is only going to get into trouble if you press charges or something and the statute of limitations is about up on that anyway. The therapist will not get your mother into trouble; but, I think it is necessary for you to share all information with the therapist for them to be able to best help you with your 'issues'. Most of your problems don't appear to be your problem but your mothers; however, you state that you have issues because of her actions. You are afraid of what other's actions may be in response to something they may not agree with if you disagree. I have been there if I didn't go along with whatever my mother wanted she would choke me or cover my mouth and nose and smother me when I was a kid. She's passed on now but she never changed she always insulted me degraded humiliated belittled me criticized when I had children she would assault and attack them also when we visited which wasn't often. You aren't a coward for thinking someone may attack you it happens and you don't have to find out if they are going to attack you the hard way meaning after it has happened. I would choose my friends carefully and all others can go to h*ll.

Please help statistics?
A local energy provider offers a landowner $180,000 for the exploration rights to natural gas on a certain site and the option for future development. This option, if exercised, is worth an additional $1,800,000 to the landowner, but this will occur only if natural gas is discovered during the exploration phase. The landowner, believing that the energy company’s interest in the site is a good indication that gas is present, is tempted to develop the field herself. To do so, she must contract with local experts in natural gas exploration and development. The initial cost for such a contract is $300,000, which is lost forever if no gas is found on the site. If gas is discovered, however, the landowner expects to earn a net profit of $6,000,000. Finally, the landowner estimates the probability of finding gas on this site to be 60%. a. Formulate a payoff table that specifies the landowner’s payoff (in dollars) associated with each possible decision and each outcome with respect to finding natural gas on the site. b. Use PrecisionTree to identify the strategy that maximizes the landowner’s expected net earnings from this opportunity.

Why do I keep having dreams like this?
Oh, it's most likely to do with your unconscious mind. It means that when you are attracted to something very dearly, that thought stays in your mind. So whenever you're not thinking about you're crush, the thought of him will still be there somewhere in your brain. It usually comes back to you when you're sleeping.
Power button is orange instead of green on Canon camera?
I have a Canon SX20 camera and normally when I turn it on, the power light turns green. When it's connected to my computer or I'm in review mode, it turns orange. However, it is now switched.

I've tried to look for the solution everywhere but it doesn't seem like this problem occurs very often. Please help!
I'm getting braces, how long do you wear them?
By the sounds of it, about 1-3 years. Probably close to two. I had mine for two years and I had a lot of stuff done. But you should ask your orthodontist. Make sure to wear your elastics (if you get them); it'll help shorten your braces time.

Is this PLUMBING product still manufactured, today?
I am a plumber in Ca. Coper Sulfate is illegal here for sure. It is too difficult to remove from the sewage for reclaiming the water. I have been using ROOTX with mixed results. Of course, ultimately, the pipe needs to be repaired if there are roots in it. try the site below depending on where you live you may still get to use it
What should I be charged for fitting a gas fire?
I have recently had a new gas fire fitted into an existing fireplace. What I thought was a simple in and out job. I have now been presented with a bill for �140.00 which included material charges (some sealer), does this seem fair? I did not get a quote before the job began.
Thermal decomposition?
It is done under pressure, a very high pressure in fact. At about 2000deg water is partially converted to hydrogen and oxygen. Conversion is a few percent. The reaction has been investigated as a potential source of hydrogen but the high temperature and enormous pressure involved severely limit the choice of construction materials.
Clogged my toilet with sliced lemons...?
Apparently I have a problem with toilets. I've attempted to flush toilet paper numerous times. FYI that doesn't work either. So I had some homemade iced tea that I was done with and thought I would flush; it had a bunch of sliced lemons in it... and now it's clogged. The water will drain and refill but veryyy slowly and it fills very full before draining. I've tried a plunger and it doesn't appear to be working. PLEASE HELPP MEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! so stupid. I really can't afford to call a plumber... ugh.

Should I prime my walls before painting?
I was planning on using behr premium plus ultra so I didnt have to prime the whole inside of my house (we recently bought a house and the ENTIRE inside needs painting) the people that lived there before had pets and let them pee/poo in the house so we are also trying to kill the smell. Someone recommended that I use kilz primer and sealer to keep out the smell as well then use regular behr paint. Would you recommend this as well?

What do you get when you mix these?

Thanks!
$1,200 to replace bathtub fixtures?
that looks about right to me. a symmons shower valve comes with a shower head and tub spout and runs about $200 ( maybe a few dollars cheaper if tub only). im not sure what the code is there but in RI 2 handle valves are illegal unless there just feeding a tub without a shower head. also you gotta figure $100 in pipe material and fittings. as far as labor your looking at the better part of a day depending on the wall access situation plus the cost of repairing the wall.
Should i give my dishwasher and refrigerator their own supply lines?
I am an owner builder and I am currently working on plumbing for my house. I have taken a class at a community college so I kinda know what I am doing but I have run into a dilemma. What I have read in my Stanley Plumbing book is that I do not need to give my refrigerator or my dishwasher their own water supply lines but rather can branch off the sink supply lines assuming I am only installing one sink, dishwasher and refrigerator in the kitchen (which I am). My question is: "Is that the best way to go?" I am worried that this may result in low water pressure in my sink when either the ice maker or the dishwasher is running. Also the fridge will probably have its own water dispenser too and i my book said nothing about fridges with water dispensers. Insight from experienced plumbers or people who have installed new kitchens will be appreciated. Thank you!

How long does it take for a new concrete driveway to start pitting and flaking?
Salt corrodes concrete. Didn't you know that? And you didn't have it sealed? You were ripped off by this so-called contractor.
In So.Cal.,what is the code # that tells what type pipe is to be used for in-house plumbing for propane?
The home now has PVC sch40 white water pipe installed for propane use. I just had a water heater installed and they used PVC to connect to the existing PVC for cold, and propane. Copper for hot. Installer said it is ok to hook up to PVC, using PVC if PVC is already existing. My propane guy won't hook up the tank to the system. He says PVC isn't to code, and isn't safe. Says it will leak through the walls of the pipe and fill the house with gas. Contractor says it's ok . Inspector says not ok. I can't find the section that describes what to use and what not to use. Help

Burning feeling in both knees?
i'm 16, and ever since i've been 12 or 13 i've have pains in both of my knees that would occasionally occur. I was told by a doctor that it was just growing pains. it slowed down & i would only get the pains a few times a year. but recently it came back. the pain is like both knees are on fire, and they feel heavy & its hard to walk on. i don't know if it is my joints or just from muscle use...any ideas?? i don't really want to go to the doctor because it's really hard to explain & they would probably just say its still growing pains. please help thanks:)
How much would labor cost to tile the bathtub surround?
We have everything we'd need to tile ourselves, but wanted to know if, time wise, it might be better to get a professional to tile it. We currently have a plastic surround that we could easily take down ourselves, so basically, putting up cement board, laying tile, and then the grout and sealer would be all we'd need. How much does doing the standard size bath surround typically cost. The tiles are porcelain, even though I think they look ceramic, and are 12x12. These door to door people quoted us over a grand, and I pretty much laughed at them. I'm tired of these "project managers" who take half the profit, when they don't even do any work. Anyway... Thanks!

Why does my TrueCrypt volume keep remounting as read-only in Tails?
I'm trying to use an encrypted partition on my hard drive with the TrueCrypt that comes with the latest version of Tails (The Amnesic Incognito Live System), but it too frequently remounts while I'm using it. This seems to occur randomly.
What do you think about E-VERIFY and undocumented immigrants?
I think a lot of employers are low-lifes in this country and even more pathetic than the illegals themselves. E-verify is decent but state immigration law is better.

His ex wife = psycho!! help!!?
my husband has 2 ex wives. both of whom have caused problems in my relationship simply because of jealousy. My husband has 3 kids by these two women whom ive had a hand in raising for 5 years. we have been married for two. My question stems to the first ex wive,who he divorced nearly 15 years ago. she is the mother of my step son. We have been through EXTREME ups and downs with this crazy woman. And when i say crazy, its not just run-of-the-mill crazy, or me just being b*tchy because shes an ex. She is on medication for bi-polar disorder. she has called the cops on us before simply for not returning a phone call. my step son(15 at the time,now 16) has described to me what her bong looks like. He stated to me word for word "she has enough pills to run a pharmacy out of the house." He has inquired to us that his step dad through a coffee table at him.He came down one weekend and I asked him why he always wore sweat pants,never jeans or shorts. He told me because he didnt have any. We went out and bought some and sent them home(now mind you my husband paid nearly 10,000 in child support that year between the two ex wives. Where is this money going?) He has told me that he has to hide his earnings from lawn care,birthdays etc because she steals it for cigarettes. Or makes him pay the electricity bill with it. Or makes him pay gas money for her court ordered 50 % of the driving to my husband and Is house every other weekend.He has told me he recieved birthday money from a relative, and didnt even make it off the porch of their home before she took it from him.Recently i noticed his shoes which are nearly close to falling apart completely. When i asked him about this, he said his mother told him to just put some sealer on it.His social skills and lack of hygiene tell me alot about his home life. he can sit on a video game for well over 8 hours. He hates taking showers. I could go on and on! I hate that she is the way she is with him. my Question is, he is 16 and in 1 year will be legally allowed to move in with us,so were not bothering with lawyers. Has anyone ever experienced a good outcome from calling dfs on something legit such as this? ive called before,but for some stupid reason dfs called and gave her a heads up they were coming,and my step son told me she through all her drugs out!! I need something to happen from this, even though he will be out of there soon enough,he is terrified of her and hes 16. She has told me he needs a babysitter!!! at 16!! I need to know how i can truly this insanity to stop!! ANY advice is appriciated!!!!!
How do I get rid of bird poop on patio?
I just stained my patio yesterday and had to wait 24 hrs for it to dry before I can add the sealer coat and today I come home to see multiple trails of white bird poop all over the newly stained patio. First, how do I get the bird poop off so I can re-stain if needed, and second, if it does not all come off and I apply the sealer coat anyway, will I then have permanant white poop stains on the patio?! Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Using Kilz primer before painting while pregnant?
My husband and I need to get the baby's nursery done before our baby shower so we have a place to put everything. The room will be very well ventilated and I will be wearing a mask. It's Kilz 2 Latex primer/sealer/stainblocker and is water based so it should be fine to use right? The paint we will use will also be latex water based but will not be kilz brand.

PLEASE HELP!!: An MRI Detected that I had a disc dessication?!?
Dessication means that they are dried out / cracked for lack of a better term. Hypertrophy is an enlargement. Stenosis is a narrowing of the spinal canal...that is good that you don't have that. All in all, that is consistent with degenerative disc disease. It can happen at any age, but when you are younger it is usually from heavy smoking. For some reason smoking causes discs to become dessicated, and that leads to the other problems you are having. Not assuming you smoke, just sayin'.

What type of grout to use?
I want to replace the old, worn-out formica counter top in my kitchen with a tile counter top similar to what my house had originally (built in 1900). My question is whether to use sanded or unsanded grout. I'm thinking unsanded with a good grout sealer. Is this correct? Also, what type of tile would be best? I've thought about using subway tile or the small hex tiles that come on a mesh backing.
Can stevia sweetner sweetleaf cause weight gain?
I don't think that it can on its own. But if you're using it to sweeten cakes and biscuits, then pigging out on them and telling yourself they're not fattening, you're in for a surprise.
What is the best marker for writing on my phone?
I'm going to a concert and I want the band members to sign the back of my phone. I have an iPhone 4, which has a glossy, black surface on the back. I need a marker that is metallic or brightly colored and will show up. What kind of marker can do this? It can't be the kind that rubs off immediately either. It needs to stay long enough for me to get it home. Then I need to put some kind of sealer thing on it. Can anyone recommend a marker and sealer that will work for this? Thanks :)
