I have been frequenting Chinese restaurants in my town for several years, and a lot of them seem to have a similar tasting tea. It is wonderful, and tastes different than anything I have ever had before. I have asked several of the restaurateurs what kind of tea they are serving, and the only answer they give is Lipton. The Lipton tea I have tried does not taste like what I have had in the restaurants. Does anyone know what type of tea they might be serving? Could it be some kind of Chinese tea? Or is there something they are adding to the Lipton, possibly? Any info anyone has would be appreciated. I would love to be able to enjoy this tea at home as well as when dining out.

I only need +.50, which are difficult to find. I found a few websites, but their glasses are ugly, and big. I thought someone on this site might have other resources which would be of help.

I have horrible acne which returned after 15 years of being acne-free due to taking Accutane. I am now using a Retin-A-type product once a day, a topical antibiotic once a day, and taking Minocycline twice a day. I also had mild psoriasis on my scalp prior to the antibiotic regimen. However, now, my psoriasis has gotten out of control. I am using Aclovate on it, as it has spread to my face, and is pretty bad. It is my understanding that yeast production and your body's immune system's response (or lack thereof) can cause psoriasis. Am I causing the psoriasis to spread by taking and applying the antibiotics to prevent the acne? Is it possible I have swapped the acne for psoriasis? Would taking Accutane again be helpful, now that I'm 40? Or would getting my hormones under control (I have no idea what kind of doctor to go to for that) fix it all? My dermatologist is deaf to my pleas to take me off the antibiotics (I'm getting ready to swap dermatologists), by the way.

I have Cingular service, and prefer to stick with that because I like the rollover minutes. I also do not care about having a camera or being able to download mp3 stuff, or being able to check or send my e-mails (if it comes with the phone I have to get to get to Yahoo! Calendar I can handle that, I just prefer not to have to pay extra for services that I don't really want). I really like Nokia phones. What model of theirs would give me what I want? Does anyone know of a good one I could purchase?

I have been unable to find it on a site that will allow me to pay for it. I can find it on all kinds of free websites, but wish to purchase it legally - without having to purchase the entire album. Any help will be appreciated.

My daughter has a slight crossbite in her back teeth, and a slight overbite in her front teeth. She is 10 years old. It has been recommended that she see an orthodontist. We have scheduled the appointment, but I want to go in there somewhat educated, so I can ask the right questions. I understand that it is important to begin correction of the crossbite first, before she begins menstruating, and while she still has some baby teeth, for optimal results. Is this correct? Also, it seems to me we should be correcting the overbite as well. Everything I read seems to suggest that we will have to do the orthodontist thing again in a few years to correct that. Is this just better spacing of treatment over the years than was done years ago? And is it really necessary to begin all this at such a young age? We want to wait until 01/07, too, to take advantage of a flexible spending account. She will be almost 11 by then. Is waiting a mistake? Any information will be appreciated.

The pediatrician is not concerned in the least, and it is past time to begin potty training. My child has to drink prune/apple juice and lots of water every day just to have a very small bowel movement every couple of days. He is a vegetarian, who doesn't like cheese either. So he eats mostly fruits, vegetables and whole grains (we regularly buy them). The only protein he gets is from milk, yogurt and legumes. I don't know, but I feel that the constipation can't be normal. I wonder if there is something we need to do to get it checked out medically. I am also concerned that if there is nothing medically wrong (that it's just the way he is), that the potty training is going to be difficult for him. I have two older children, so I know how to potty train, but I think it is going to be hard for him to accomplish it. Any advice would be welcome.

My daughter painted fingernail polish on my wood coffee table. I am afraid to use remover, as I have always heard that will take out the stain.
