I have gone through the process of confirming my debit card using a 4 digit code on on my statement a few days ago and it said it has been confirmed but I still can't use it yet. When I click on the card it doesn't show status confirmed even though I got a paypal code on the bank statement. Do I have to wait longer or did I do something wrong. I was told I'd get refunded $2 but still haven't received it.

When I was a child my upbringing was like this set of rules, don't overreact, don't raise voice too much, don't snap, don't make too much noise, don't run around making a racket, watch what you say and do. I broke one of these rules I'd either get scolded or told off. So my question of the day is "What type of parenting does this sound like to you?

Why when two people do the same thing, one suffers the consequences of their actions while the other person doesn't experience any consequences at all? Is this just me or does this actually happen?

When reading modern greek, how do you tell if a verb is in the aorist tense or in the preterite tense?

It appears to me that more and more people are going out of their own way to learning multiple languages like as if though it is becoming fashionable to do so. It appears that the number of polyglots are on the rise. What are your thoughts on this?

I've noticed that basque nouns and adjectives tend to end in a and other times not e.g. etxea/etxe (house), marrubia/marrubi (strawberry), urdina/urdin (blue). Why is this? How are they different?

It is advised that you have no more than 9 teaspoons of sugar daily (4x9=36g). Is this referring to added sugar or is it referring total sugar intake regardless of where it comes from i.e fruit, vegetable or otherwise? Even if you were to follow a very strict diet with no added sugar and maybe go as far as eliminating fruit you still might go over the limit depending on how much of the vegetables you consume.

I've been off coffee for well over a week now due to concerns about teeth stains and possible damage. So I was wonder that out of chai, coffee and chocolate which is the best if you're worried about your teeth?

I've got a fish tank that has debris that can be seen in amongst the gravel and when ever I try to vacuum the gravel a big cloud of debris goes everywhere. Is this a problem and what would be a good way to deal with this? This won't bother fish would it? I have endlers BTW.

Its my understanding that we lose muscle as we age, the thing I want to know is when you're older is it harder to build muscle when you're older. I'm 30 BTW.

Can the presence of antioxidants hinder vitamin D synthesis. I'm on the paleo diet so I eat a lot of antioxidants. Also, can you purchase a do it yourself vitamin D testing kits?

I got a bit sunburnt nearly a week ago and had no intention of getting sunburnt. Now I'm starting to see some deeply tanned areas. So does getting sunburnt make you tan more deeply? I had no intention of this happening by the way. Also will the peeled away areas be the same colour as the tan?

I often wear shorts and my legs get all flaky. Oddly my arms aren't flaky like my legs are yet I also wear a T-shirt a lot.

I would like to be eating more beetroots, rhubarb, spinach etc without worrying about possible health implications. I personally never experienced problems with things like kidney stones. Should these foods be eaten in moderation or can they be eaten regularly and how often should I be eating these foods? I do exercise and drink water just in case that might be relevant.

I've noticed that ever since I became a nudist I've been more comfortable with less clothes on even at lower temperatures. I suspect that this might because my metabolism is higher in order to generate more heat in response to lower temperatures.

I've one source claiming that not all New Guinea natives wear phallocrypts, is this true. If its true then what are the names of these tribes?

I like the idea of riding a trike because I don't like bicycles and never had. Is 28 too young to ride a trike? Are they OK to ride on the footpath? Seems to me older people use them is that true?

I got an N for one of my units but all my other units are fine but are a D grade. I get the feeling that maybe uni isnt my thing. If its just one unit does this really matter? I dont wann waste time redoing a unit if I can seek other avenues.

Is it just me or are aussies obsessed boardies, I just don't understand why they're like in every clothes shop. Why aren't there more basketball shorts like there is in America they're much more comfy. Seeing that they are uncomfortable I don't get the board shorts trend in Australia. Another thing I don't understand is why aren't basketball shorts common place in Australia when they should be as they're much more comfy.

Also I'm interested in knowing which country has the lowest UV index
