I have a few refillable travel size bottles (1.7oz) which are just blank (i.e. don't have any labels indicating the actual amt of liquid it holds, although it's obvious that it's under 3 oz) - is that allowed in the zip-lock bag?

2 AnswersPacking & Preparation1 decade agoAny tips on preventing the heel from slipping out of the high heels when wearing pantyhose/nylons?
I wear 3-4inch heels on a daily basis, but usually my lifestyle doesn't require that I wear them with nylons or pantyhose. I find that whenever I do wear nylons with any of my shoes, my heels tend to slip out of the shoes much easier when I'm walking.
All my shoes are the correct fit and are not too big. I've tried grip pads and soles, but it only helps a little.

3 AnswersCooking & Recipes1 decade agoBest material to make an semi-circle floral curve (dance prop)?
I'm trying to make a semi-circle floral curve that daners can use to hold above their heads and dance with - I'm not sure what material to use for the basic curving rod. I would like the rod to be flexible (so the dancers can manipulate the shape), but still sturdy enough to hold it's semi-circle shape - I'd probably like the diameter of the rod to be about 0.5-1inch (not too thin)
Any ideas? Thanks!

2 AnswersOther - Music1 decade agoWhat the best and most polite way to bring up an inquiry for writing a letter of recommendation?
I am applying to profession school soon and would like to ask my former boss to write a letter of recommendation.
I plan to go in and talk to this person directly. I'm not sure how to initiate such a conversion or phrase this inquiry properly and professionally (without it being too akward as I have not visited this work place since over a year ago). My relationship with this person is more on a student/mentor and/or business level, so we did not socialize casually or socially outside of work.
Advice and suggestions on what I should say are greatly appreciate!

3 AnswersDecorating & Remodeling1 decade agoHow to approach/ask someone for a reference letter for Professional school?
I feel a little intimidated to approach someone who I worked for in the past to ask them if they would mind writing a good letter of recommendation. I don't want them to feel uncomfortable...what's a professional way of asking? (I will do this in person..but am not sure what to say)
Also, should I prepare anything to bring with me (i.e summary of my achievements, details on what it's for, etc). What if there are several schools I need the references for, do I tell them to type out several copies? Should I prepare envelopes with the receipient addresses?
How well in advance should I ask for these letters?
Thanks!

2 AnswersProgramming & Design1 decade agoHow to stop file downloads from downloading direcly into the temporary folder?
Usually when I left click on a download link, a windows prompting message will pop up, asking me to choose between "open, "save", etc.
Just today, when I do the same thing, the file automatically starts downloading to the temporary folder.
I tried checking "enable" under tools->internet options->security->hightlighting "internet" icon->custom->ENABLE "automatic prompting for file downloads"
but it doesn't seem to be the fix for the problem.
How do I get the download prompting back?
Thanks!
Please note that I'm not looking for the following answers:
1. Right-click the link and choose save-as (I know that's an option, but I would like to have my original prompt message back)
2. Choose "save" when asked where to download to (I'm missing this option right now where it gives me a choice to do so!)
2 AnswersSoftware1 decade agoDifference between footless tights and leggings and what to wear with them?
I know that footless tights and leggings are in at the moment. But I'm not sure what the difference between the two are (besides the footless part).
What are you suppose to wear with them (besides under dresses/skirts) and are they suppose to be opaque (i.e. works kind of like alternatives to pants) or slightly sheer (i.e. like stockings)?
Also what materials do they come in and how do you know which length to get to go with different types of outifts?
8 AnswersFashion & Accessories1 decade agoAverage Income for a Veterinarian in Ontario, Canada after tax deductions, etc?
There's tons of taxes here in Canada, just wondering what a veterinarian in Ontario makes on average after all taxes, etc have been deducted.
Please separate average income by level of experience, as well as whether the vet owns a private practice or is employed at a clinic, if possible.
Also, there's a lot of clinics here where one vet only seems to work 2-3 times a week. Do they have multiple jobs at different locations? How many working hours per week are the average income values based on?
Do veterinarians earn well in general? What other careers have similar average annual incomes as vets?
