I don't know how, but every program on my computer has the adobe icon, and an error comes up saying that"adobe reader can't open program because..." when I try to open. Just got a new computer a couple weeks ago with windows 7 operating system. Any ideas?

I am LDS, I'm just curious how many marriage ceremonies are performed in the Salt Lake Temple on an annual basis? Please include a source, as I am gathering info for a Sunday School lesson tomorrow. Thanks.

May seem like a stupid question, but I'm new to Verizon, and this is a new feature for me. I've noticed that when creating a text, my phone allows me to go over the typical 160 character limit I am accustomed to. Is there an additional fee in sending messages that exceed 160 characters?

12-team, deep h2h league, I was offered Deron Williams and Devin Harris for Chris Paul and Jeff Green. Thoughts?

My laptop takes several minutes in order to shut down. It gets irritating having to sit and wait. What might be causing it to take so long?

I currently use the free AVG anti-virus, along with Comodo firewall. Should I install a separate anti-spyware in addition to these programs? Or am I sufficiently covered as is? I have to keep it free, due to being a full-time student with 2 kids (extremely tight budget). Thanks

I've got plenty of pitching depth in my Yahoo H2H league, but I'm really lacking power. I've tried offering Johan straight-up for Pujols, Berkman (his owner is a Mets lover), and Braun, all to no avail. Is Johan really that worthless right now? I know he isn't exactly blowing away the competition, not racking up the w's (thanks to Mets bullpen), but his era, whip, and K's are all way above average. What is his current trade value?

I've got a plethora of starting pitchers, would like to upgrade other areas, especially power numbers. The team most likely to trade with has Smoltz, Berkman, and Dunn as my main targets. Could Johan, straight up, fetch me a combo of any of those 3 players? Should I even consider going after them?

I am a respiratory therapy student, looking for a good pulse ox to purchase for under $150. I have been doing a lot of research online, and I have found a ton of pulse ox's that are not FDA approved, but are lower priced, and only a handful that are FDA approved, but are a bit more expensive. Does a pulse ox have to be FDA approved in order to be a reliable tool in the hospital setting? How much difference does it really make? Any suggestions on a reliable pulse ox to purchase?

In slowpitch softball, here is the scenario: Runner on 1st and 2nd, ground ball to third baseman. He picks up the ball, holds it in his bare hand, and touches the bag with his glove. Base runner safe or out? I know on a tag-out, the ball has to be in the hand that touches the runner. Does the ball have to touch the bag on a force-out, such as this instance? First person to give me the answer, with a specific rule book reference will get the points. Thanks! Not sure if it's ASA or USSSA, sorry.

H2H fantasy baseball league, playing my arch rival for the title. I have Cole Hamels on the bench. With 2 starts possible, do I risk him being rusty? Yovani Gallardo and Javier Vazquez are the guys I'm debating over, and they both have 2 starts as well. Anybody have any thoughts? I'm listening!

This is my current pitching, with reasoning behind my decision:

AJ Burnett- 1 start, vs. Boston. Too good lately to not start

Fausto Carmona - 1 start, vs. Oakland. Same as Burnett

Felix Hernandez- 1 start, vs. Oakland. Same as Carmona and Burnett

Pedro Martinez- 1 start, vs. Florida. Solid since return, against crappy team

Javier Vazquez- 2 starts, plays for crappy team though

Yovani Gallardo- 2 starts, team playing for playoffs

Rich Hill- 2 starts, also playing for playoffs

Bench:

Hamels- 2 starts, fresh off DL, rusty?

Matt Cain- 1 start, zero run support

James Shields- 1 start, pitching well, but for a bad team

H2H league, trying for Mariano. Offered Marquis, he countered for Soriano. I said "no thanks".

I have lots of quality starters to offer:

Tim Lincecum (I'm keeping him!)

Jason Marquis (already offered, denied)

Bartolo Colon

Felix Hernandez

Fausto Carmona

Bronson Arroyo

Cole Hamels (no way)

Matt Cain

AJ Burnett

Rich Hill

Tom Gorzelanny

Straight up points-league, 7 pitchers each week, whether starters or relievers, doesn't matter.

Ideas?

I am trying my best to get Mariano Rivera. My latest effort was offering Aaron Haring, to no avail. Seriously, what exactly is Rivera worth right now? I think we all can agree that he will eventually bust out, but right now, I'd say his value is at an all-time low.

Roto, I have a girth of Starters to offer:

Johan Santana (not a chance)

Andy Pettitte

Aaron Haring (already tried, failed)

Tim Lincecum (see Johan)

Matt Cain

A.J. Burnett

John Maine

Oliver Perez

Tom Gorzelanny

Rich Harden (DL)

So what's it gonna take? I need another closer.

Doing a research project on genecide. I'm trying to find any examples from the last decade. 9/11 came to mind because all they wanted to do was kill Americans. Would that be an example, or am I stretching the definition a tad too far?

It's a whole new series now! If Utah could have put together a couple of decent 2nd-halves in Houston, this series would (should) already be over.

I'm sorry, but Houston looks absolutely pitiful right now. Just let Yao get his numbers, limit McGrady, and move on to round #2.

Go Jazz!

10-team, Point-based H2H league. No categories, just points.

C-V. Martinez, M. Piazza (trade bait)

1B-Justin Morneau

2B-Howie Kendrick

SS-Carlos Guillen, Stephen Drew

3B-Garrett Atkins, Alex Gordon

U-Travis Hafner

OF-Soriano, Ichiro, Delmon Young, Mark Teahen

P-King Felix, Rich Harden, AJ Burnett, Adam Wainwright, Scott Olson, Cole Hamels, Clay Hensley, Matt Cain, Rich Hill

Remember, it doesn't matter that I'm not getting saves, SB, etc. because this is a points-based league. No categories. Room for improvement?

CBS Sportsline Head 2 Head, Points league.

I'm desperate to get Rich Harden. I know he has burned me over the past couple of years, but I've got a feeling he may just push Johan Santana for the AL Cy Young this year. The current owner of Harden has said he needs an upgrade at 3B and a solid pitcher in exchange for Harden (he said he would consider AJ Burnett).

I'm prepared to offer Troy Glaus and AJ Burnett for Adrian Beltre and my beloved Harden. I'm not a fan of Beltre's, but I also have Mark Teahen, and I think he will be just fine. I figure Burnett is just as much an injury risk as Harden, but Harden has so much more upside.

Am I offering too much? Should I temper my man-crush on Harden? Thoughts either way are welcome. Thanks.

I've been advised that "the squeaky wheel gets the grease" but I'm afraid that the squeaky wheel will just get annoying. There's a fine line that separates "often enough" with "too often". Problem is, I'm not sure where that line lies.

Would it make any difference to you at all if you knew, and everybody else knew, that a player on your team were gay? Would you treat him/her any differently than if you hadn't known? Would you be comfortable showering or changing your clothes next to them? Honest question, so please, honest answers only.
