  • When you dowload stuff from XBox Live does it tell you the cost somewhere?

    My son keeps telling me it doesn't and I say it must somewhere. I am really getting tired of all these charges on my credit card. If you have any other suggestions on ways to not let it download when there is a charge or a way to get my credit card out of there I'd appreciate it.

  • Has anyone put self stick tiles over a floor that is not flat?

    My mom needs to re-do her bathroom floor. She bought the self sticking tiles but when she pulled up the carpet the old lineoleum is not flat, it has ridges etc. to look like real stone flooring. She is going to try an etching compound to see if that will take it away. I was just wondering if you put the sticky tiles down on top will you be able to tell the floor wasn't smooth?

    TIA! Lisa

  • ATTN: E85 users!?

    At the dealership one person said to fill up with E85 any time ie: you can mix E85 and unleaded. Another person told us if we have unleaded in our tank to wait till it was below 1/4 tank before putting in E85. What were you told or what do you do? Also do you notice any loss of power/mileage with E85? How does E85 start up during cold weather? I am in Minnesota. Any other tips or input you have would be appreciated as I am a new E85 owner. TIA for your help! Lisa

  • I need help connecting an old laptop to the internet.?

    We have qwest internet which is connected thru an ethernet cord. The laptop does not have an ethernet connection. I have asked at Best Buy and Office Max about an adaptor for usb to ethernet and they have never heard of one. It doesn't have a wireless card and I can not install the wireless usb I have untill I update Windows 2000 service pack. I can not update Windows 2000 till I can get on the internet. I tried to download the update to a cd, but it can't verify the windows version so I can't update it that way either. The computer says to go to the Windows 2000 service pack 4 web page and click on downloading without an internet connection. I can't find that anywhere on microsoft.com. Looking for ANY ideas on how to get Windows updated so I can hook up my wireless usb. TIA for your help :-)

  • Comcast Cable problems?

    Anyone else having problems with most channels saying that they will "be available shortly"? We have been waiting since last night for the channels to be available.

    I saw a piece on the news that said because Comcast bought out Time Warner that people were having problems. Comcast did not acknowledge any problems.

    I called this morning and they said they would send a signal to clear up the problem. They said if that did not work to unplug everything for 10-15 min. I have done both and nothing helps.

    So.... Have you guys found anything that works?

    Thanks!

  • Anyone else having a problem with teachers recording turned in work?

    We had conferences last night for my 8th grader. There was a lot of missing work for two classes. When I got home I went thru a folder of stuff that we had gotten back from the teacher that had been graded. I found two things for one class. So today I emailed the teacher and asked how I could have the graded copy, yet the school records show the work is missing.

    She did not apologize, but just said she was glad we had kept the returned work and he needed to re-submitt it for the grade to reflect on school records.

    I don't think this is fair. If I would not have had the graded paper, my son would have had to re-do the work to get credit. Does anyone else have this problem? I guess I will have to start keeping everything until the quarter is done and I know he got credit for the work.

    Let me know if you have any suggestions on how to handle this situation.

    Thanks!

  • Charter School vs High School?

    I am considering a Charter school for my son instead of High school. I have a meeting tonight to see what it is all about. Can anyone who has been to Charter school or sent their children there provide me with any information? I am wondering what is so different between the two. My son has ADHD and is doing OK in public school. He has a hard time turning in work if he is not asked for it and does better in small groups. Thanks for the information!

  • My son is selling stuff for school should I show the books to my manager?

    She never had children. She is always complaining that she has to pay property taxes for schools and never buys anything when she does look at the books. However, I have shown it to the two other girls in the office and I don't want to hurt her feelings if I don't show it to her. What do you guys think? Would you show it to her or not?
