  • What does it mean when all your car warning lights go on?

    I was driving down the freeway, and all of the sudden I heard a noise and then the low fuel light and other lights all went on. I had half a tank of fuel. They were on for about 30 seconds then went away. I drove home and now my car wont start without a jump. Is it possibly just a bad battery? or something more?

  • cheap weekly motel in tyler, tx?

    I am moving to the Tyler, TX area, and wanted to find a cheap motel to rent by the week while I looked around for a permanent place to live.

  • How do you get free medical for pregnancy in california?

    My wife is about 10 weeks pregnant and we want to go to the doctor but her job doesnt offer insurance and I am on unemployment. We cant afford all the doctor visits, but were told at the health dept that we dont qualify for medi cal since we make about 30,000/yr combined and dont have any kids yet. Are there any programs that offer free medical for pregnant women if your income is over 30,000 in San Bernardino County?

  • how do i travel between Disney World resorts?

    I am planning on going on my honeymoon to Disney World toward the end of March 2012. I am hoping to go to a hotel (not disney) near one of their resorts and either walk or take free transportation to a different Disney park each day. I am wondering if they are within walking distance of each other or if I will have to rent a car and drive to each park. Also I live in California, so will the humidity in Florida be bad around March/April?

  • my handgun will not fire?

    I have a Hi Point 9mm handgun. I used it once, and it worked fine. I cleaned it after using, and now when I pull back the slide, it loads the casing but when I pull the trigger it goes back and nothing happens. I am thinking it may be some type of safety. I think I put it all back together right after cleaning, but it is possible I didnt.

    Also sometimes the bullet will get stuck between the magazine and the chamber and it jams.

    Any idea why this is not firing? I took it to the local gun shop and the guy said to mail it back to Hi Point because he does not deal with them

  • What is the best truck bed liner, spray or roll on?

    I have 2 types of bed liner for my truck. A set of spray cans (looks like paint cans) called Blue Magic, and a roll on liner made by Hurculiner. The Blue magic is about half the price, but the Hurculiner one sounds like it might work better. Which should I use? I will not be doing heavy hauling, just driving around town and maybe some 2x4's every once in awhile for home improvement.

  • are there jobs for LVN's or LPN?

    I am unemployed and looking at going to a trade school to be an LVN (LPN). I keep hearing that there is a shortage of nurses, but also that hospitals are not hiring LVN's only RNs. Would going to a 13 month school for LVN be a good idea? I want something where I will have a very good shot to be able to get a job after school. Or is there a better medical career I could do in 1-2 yrs that would have better job security?

  • How is unemployment amount determined?

    I just got laid off today. I started a good paying job in Jan 2010. I am curious when I should file for unemployment. I finished my training and working 30-40 hrs a week in Feb 2010. I am not sure how they determine my benefit amount in California. Should I wait until January to file? Will I miss a week of unemployment if I wait? Jan 2009-Dec 2009 I was making about 500 a month, and as of Jan 2010 I made about 3000 a month. Also I have 2 weeks vacation time saved up, will that affect my amount?

  • When do I file for unemployment?

    I live in California and found out I will be laid off Dec 27th. I have about 75 hrs of vacation time saved up which will be paid out over a week and a half after I am laid off. My question is, do I file after my vacation pay is done? Or the day after I am laid off? Will I receive benefits starting Dec 28th since I will be laid off or do I have to wait until next year after my vacation time is paid off? I earned about 40,000 if that helps. What is the best way to maximize my unemployment pay?

Also any additional info would be appreciated, like the hardest parts of the job or anything else.

    Thanks

  • Can I collect unemployment benefits in California?

    I will be laid off in a few months, but I have a second job working security that I do from time to time for extra cash. The locations change, but the jobs are always at least 50 miles from my house. If I get laid off from my full time job and am still doing this moonlighting security job will that affect my unemployment? Since it is so far away it would seem I wouldnt be required to work there since I would make more on unemployment. What is the required distance I would have to go for a job?

  • Should I quit my second job? Unemployment?

    I have an almost full time job, approx 35 hrs a week 6 days a week. I occasionally have a day off so I kept my prior job which is on call security. My question is should I quit my security job since I have not worked it in a few months and I am working my main job mostly? My current job will end in December since it is a contracted position. I want the ability to obtain unemployment after this job ends and if I have this 2nd job I will still be employed. My security job is far away usually at least 50 miles each way and I only make $10/hr, 10 hrs a week. I dont want it to screw up my unemployment benefits.
