4 AnswersFantasy Sports1 decade agoCan I have the flu vaccine?
I'm a pretty healthy person, and I've not once in my life had the flu, nor have I ever had a flu vaccination. The main reason being that as a child, I was severely allergic to eggs, the proteins of which are included in the flu shot. However, last year, in order to attend college, I had to have Menactra (the meningitis vaccination), which also has egg proteins in it. My physician did an allergy test on me since I hadn't had one in a few years, and I guess I did alright, because I was administered Menactra, although it was in small portions at 15 minute intervals.
Being that this flu season is set up to be worse than most, what I was wondering is if it would be safe for me to have the normal flu vaccine this year and the vaccine for H1N1 whenever it is distributed to the public? Should I ask my doctor before doing anything?
3 AnswersInfectious Diseases1 decade agoHow to start eat healthier.?
Lately, I have started to become a little concerned with the affects that my eating habits could have on me in the long term. I've also wanted to start to get into better shape, but I know that with my current eating habits, there's no way that I'll be able to gain muscle.
For most of my life, I've been a pretty picky eater, so it's always been hard for me to try new things and I don't eat hardly anything that's healthy for me. So I was wondering if anybody had any suggestions for easy new foods to try or a website that could point me in the right direction?
10 AnswersDiet & Fitness1 decade agoX-Box Live Connection?
Recently, I've been recieving a fairly weak (0-2 bars) signal for my X-Box Live connection. I do live in the attic, and up until the past few days, I've never had a problem with a wireless connection. The weird thing is, I'm only having connection problems with my X-Box Live, but my laptop works just fine. There are other people in my house that use computers, but they generally turn them off when they're not using them.
Is there a way that i can fix the wireless connection? Will it go back to normal on it's own? Should I try a wired connection that hooks up to my laptop?
1 AnswerVideo & Online Games1 decade agoBlocking a website with host files.?
I've gotten to my host files program, and out of all the tutorials, I notice something weird about my host file.
Here is the file:
# Copyright (c) 1993-2006 Microsoft Corp.
#
# This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows.
#
# This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each
# entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should
# be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name.
# The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one
# space.
#
# Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual
# lines or following the machine name denoted by a '#' symbol.
#
# For example:
#
# 102.54.94.97 rhino.acme.com # source server
# 38.25.63.10 x.acme.com # x client host
::1 localhost
Now I know normally at the bottom it says 127.0.0.1 localhost, but mine has the ::1 localhost. I was wondering what I should do next since mine is different?
1 AnswerProgramming & Design1 decade agoQuestion about contact lenses.?
Last week, I went to the eye doctor and got contact lenses.
I'm still in my trial pair, and on my left eye they work great. But on my right eye, it makes my vision a bit fuzzy sometimes, and things up close are somewhat hard to read. I can tell this by covering my left eye and looking out my right and vice versa. For as long as I've had to wear glasses, I've had different vision in both eyes with my right one being worse.
I was just wondering if the fuzzy vision will go away with time after my eyes get used to the contacts or if I should ask my eye doctor about possibly getting two different lenses for both of my eyes?
2 AnswersOther - General Health Care1 decade agoNeed help with the right jeans.?
I have trouble finding the right pair of jeans to fit me.
I usually fit pretty well into a 30 x 30 pair of jeans, my only problem is with where they sit and the rise. Jeans that sit down on my hips usually feel better than those that are on my waist, and even with low rise jeans, the rise goes up wayyy more than I would like it to.
My question is am I maybe doing the wrong sizes in length and waist or is it the type of jeans that I'm wearing (I usually do low rise boot cut or just regular straight jeans)? Usually it doesn't matter which I do, the rise just rises up too much and looks ridiculous.
1 AnswerFashion & Accessories1 decade agoBrowser trouble?
I have a question about my internet browser(s).
Every now and then, I'll be using the internet, and it'll be working just fine, and then the next second, it just quits, and I get the 'Page Can Not Be Displayed' message. I get this on IE or FF at the same time when it stops working.
I know it's not a connection error, because my computer allows me to use my instant messengers, and I can still have conversations with people while this goes on, but my browser won't work. I have a Wireless Internet Connection, by the way.
I've done numerous virus scans, and can't find anything. What I'm wondering is could it be spyware? Or is it something else that's wrong?

5 AnswersFantasy Sports1 decade agoSinus Infection and Eyesight?
Quite recently, I've had a sinus infection, which I get usually once a year do to the fact that I don't blow my nose enough, and my sinuses don't drain quite right.
But anyway, over the past week, my sinus infection wasn't quite as severe as normal, just a lot of pressure in the sinus cavities just above and below the eyes, which caused a mild sinus headache. Also, it caused me to lose vision quite significantly in my right eye although the pressure was all over. I had figured this was merely the pressure restricting the blood flow to the retina in my right eye.
But now, as the sinus infection has nearly cleared up, my blurred vision has not. My left eye is normal, but my right eye has vision which is quite blurred and spotty similar to how your eyesight is when you first wake up. I also have trouble focusing on words, when I close my left eye and try to read with my right.
Has this happened to anyone else? And if so what happened?
3 AnswersOther - General Health Care1 decade agoHow to build up muscle?
Hi, I was wondering what kind of excercises are best for building muscle tone. Right now I'm 5'9", and weigh about 135 lbs.
I have absolutely no upper body strength (I can't even do one pushup), I'm not fat, but my stomach looks flabby when I sit, and I can't run very fast.
So I was wondering what are the best excercises for building upper body strength, defining abs, and building leg muscle? And please explain how each are done, because I've never done any kind of training.
2 AnswersDiet & Fitness1 decade agoHow to get rid of acne.?
When I was about 13, my mom started nagging and nagging and nagging at me to wash my face every day. And now, I really wish that I had listened.
So about a year ago, I started to have some breakouts, nothing so bad as pizzaface, but I get horrible acne on my forehead (which is why I kept my bangs long).
I have tried every solution I can think of. I've tried Clearasil (didn't work well), another type of Clearisil (made it worse), toothpaste (somewhat worked, but not well), as well as swabbing my face with alcohol.
No solution that I seem to try works very well. And I am sick and tired of this acne, and now that I've had my hair cut, I need it gone, fast!
I need a cheap solution that will work FAST. I mean, in one week I should see results! I am somewhat of a bad eater, so solutions that do not involve major diet changes would help most.
PLEASE HELP ME!
27 AnswersOther - Skin & Body1 decade agoWhy does everyone pick Winthrop as an upset in the NCAA Tourney?
I really don't understand it. Last year, I knew people picking them to get all the way to the Sweet 16, and this year, I'm seeing some of the same things!
As far as I know, they've never done anything in the NCAA Tourney to begin with.
So why does everyone pick them as an upset?
