  • Are there brands that make lactose free cheese or butter?

    I really don't like vegan cheese and even though feta is okay, I'd like some other type of cheese. I don't care for cheese but a lot of recipes I want to make for me and my fiancée include cheese. I don't do well with lactaid pills, and even tiny quantities of cheese can make me very sick. Even regular butter makes me sick. Lactaid milk is fine.

    Thank you

  • Removing water pump pulley in 2006 Honda Civic LX?

    Accidentally hit submit on previous question.

    I need to replace my belt tensioner. I have removed the alternator, but the bolts on the swiveling water pump pulley are very difficult to get to and its nearly impossible to get a good grip and remove the bolts.

    I've watched videos, read forums, and looked for manuals online. No one directly explains it for the 1.8L on an '06 Civic.

    I can't remove the tire/tire mount like on some cars because my water pump is positioned in a different way than most.

    I need to fix my car. Any ideas on tools and whatnot? Also, I can't "remove" anything that may be in the way. The car itself is in the way.

    I don't want to remove the entire pump. Please help. Thank you

  • Does anyone know of a liquid detox diet that is not for weightloss?

    Exactly what it says... a liquid detox diet that provides nutrition and calories. I have been dealing with digestive issues because of many intolerances (including gluten and lactose) and I just want to cleanse my colon, basically.

    I'm tired of feeling sick, even though I've felt much better since avoiding gluten.

    I weight 120lbs!!! I do not want to lose weight!!!

    Everything I search is associated with weight loss.

    Thank you.

  • Can a landlord request a credit check after lease has been signed and first months rent paid (Florida)?

    Can anyone tell me where in Florida statutes I can find this information?

    I know from experience that most landlords request an application fee that goes toward a credit check/background check. My fiance and I have already signed a lease for a room, not apartment or house, room with the landlord's niece.

    We have paid first month's rent and will be giving them a security deposit within the next couple of days.

    Now they are requesting a credit check. Can they resquest one after an agreement has already been made?

    I just want to know for sure, but I was under the impression that they cannot if we are already renting. They have also raised our security deposit and rent because "we are two people". The original agreement was 300 plus 1/4th of utilities. Now its 350, and I made sure it was specified at a fixed rate on the lease.

    But they have been changing things constantly. This is their first time as landlords.

  • Recurring dreams anout my girlfriend?

    My girlfriend and I live together and generally sleep together, too. Because of the nature of my job, I also sleep when I m working, sometimes for hours. In my dream, whether I m in bed next to her or in bed at work, I m always looking for her. She s always nearby, and even when I find her, I m still obsessed with trying to find her. She s always preoccupied with something else and going about her day. My entire dream, no matter where she is, I m either searching for her or searching for bait for her (something that will attract her).

    I have this dream frequently.

    My girlfriend and I are very close and we talk to each other a lot. We have very different majors (I am in the field of medicine and am a biology major; she s an artist graphic/web design major). We have different beliefs (I believe in God and she s atheist). But these things have never come between us. We love each other s fields and she has taught me aspects of HTML/CSS whereas I ve taught her about the structural evolution of seeds in plants.

    We love each other very much. Been together almost one year. Have the same birthday. We are both girls, 24 and 26.

  • Why do I only like older women?

    Posted this in singles and didn't get much of an answer.

    I'm a lesbian.

    I only seem to enjoy relationships with older women, sexually. I don't understand why. I'm approaching my mid 20s now and in the past couple of years, I've only even considered women at least 10 years my senior, some up to 20 years. It's safe to say that I am a tad bit more mature than people my age. I don't like to go out partying and don't hang out all of the time. I am very goal oriented and professional, yada yada... But that's not WHY I like older women.

    The truth is that I don't just enjoy the age gap, I get off on it. I get off on thinking about our age gap and how sexy it is that we're doing what we're doing. It drives me wild. I've been pretty lucky to find these women that tolerated me at their age, and I can't see myself with anyone younger or even my age. I can't even really see myself with a 30-year-old sometimes.

    And what is going to happen when I'm older? When I'm 35, will I only like women who are 45? 55? I've dated women as old as my mother.

    When I'm 40, will I only date 60? Or will it flip? Will I then begin going after 24-year-olds? I find myself thinking... I enjoy that they get off on my innocence and youth, but when that is gone... What will I do? Go after others' innocence and youth?

    My minimum age to date right now is 35. I am a bit older by I look around 18-20.

    Am I just insane?

    I am a girl, by the way...

  • What type of memory do I have (not photographic)?

    I have an amazing memory, but it's not photographic. It is very visual and usually short term. I will score a 100% on a test just by glancing over the material (most of the time), and I can sometimes see the answer in the material I read in my head. However, if I don't pay attention to what was around it, I won't remember it at all. Let's say it's a dosage for a medication. If I pay attention to the number, such as 5, and not the units, such as grams, I will get it wrong. Also, any other words around what I focused on will be present but blurry.

    I've taken the photographic memory test and failed miserably. I know I don't have a photographic memory, but as a medic, I've seen some pretty disturbing things. Maybe I've suppressed it somehow. (whatever it is, I don't care, I just know I don't have one and honestly, as a medic, I don't want one)

    The reason I'm asking this is because this also goes for sounds. If I hear someone speaking, and I am doing something at the time, rather than pay attention to them, I can record what they said and play it back later like a little voice recorder in my head. Once I utilize and understand the recording, it's gone, but the information. I can play back anything said to me for a short period of time, over and over, and this also helps me with exams.

    What kind of memory is this? I use pattern recognition for most problem solving in life (and connections between similar patterns), not my memory... but I'd still like to know what it is.

  • Different rhythms in the same ECG?

    I had a pt yesterday who I did a 12 lead on; it was a call for melena and nausea. Pt had no complaints on scene. She was fine, alert and oriented. 100% sats, vitals within normal limits (including capnography). 80 yrs

    I did the 12 lead and found that in the limb and augmented leads, she was afiv with SVR. However, at the same time, she had a bigeminy of PVCs in leads V1-V6. She also had a left anterior fascicular block at -55°.

    I did not understand what would make her heart retain two different rhythms at the same time. Can anyone explain this to me? Doctors, paramedics, PAs, nurse practitioners, even RNs in telemetry.

    Other than that one funky 12 lead, she was afib with svr and pacs/pjcs approx 10x a minute with the occasional bigeminy of PVCs. Any other time after that, the views would match. And yes, I am serious. Pacs, pvcs, and pjcs were all present. Again, no complaints. BP was around 110/120 systolic, 70/80 diastolic.

  • In state tuition for dreamers?

    I have heard that the main reason people don't want illegal immigrants' kids to receive in-state tuition is because the parents don't pay taxes.

    What if I told you that my parents were illegal at one point and they did pay taxes. The IRS actually issues a number that allows them to pay taxes without getting the benefits. The only benefit is to possess credit and sometimes receive tax returns (though it is not guaranteed).

    Also, since I am 23 years old, I also pay taxes. I have a good job in the field of EMS, which is a high demand field that most Americans admit to me they cannot do. I pay hundreds out to taxes a month.

    So, should I receive in state tuition? Because I don't.

    And to eliminate the racists answers, I am actually not Hispanic at all. I'm Dutch and not an illegal but an illegal's kid. Tired of paying out of state fees to the state I pay taxes to

  • I can't get over my ex?

    I can't get over my ex girlfriend. We broke up Jan of this year, dated for 7 months.

    Now she's dating her best friend and it's literally the worst feeling I've ever felt in my entire life, next to my grandmother dying.

    I don't understand. I'm not an emotional person. I rarely ever cry. I hate romance movies and think they are boring.

    I hate the fact that she's gonna have a girlfriend. I hate her girlfriend and I haven't even met her. All these feeling are so irrational and silly that I'm embarrassed to talk about it. And my ex is now my best friend, so the one person I could talk to about it, I can't even talk to.

    What do I do? Why do I feel so extremely horrible? I'm generally a happy person. Why does it feel like I'll never fall for anyone ever again?

    Before her, I thought it was impossible for me to fall in love. Now I am... and it's terrible.

  • How often do girls normally masturbate?

    I was just wondering. I think I do it a lot more than normal girls. I'm 23, pretty attractive, and can have sex whenever I want. I don't have sex with just anyone, though. I need to be in a relationship for a while to have sex.

    But I do it as often as I'm alone. I do it in relationships. I do it to the point where sometimes my partners can't make me climax because I'm so used to myself.

  • I want to do my best, but I have ADHD?

    I've always been smart. In grade school, I never paid attention. I got bad grades. I got in trouble a lot. I didn't really care. I went to summer school almost every year in high school. Never applied myself.

    In college, I have a 4.0. I'm obsessed. I am in medic school so there is a lot of physiology, cardiology, pharmacology and such that I have to study and I get straight As in everything.

    Thing is, I have only read 1 chapter of my paramedic book. I only get amazing grades because I know what they test on, look the material over a few minutes before the test, and pass with flying colors. The other students study a lot but I almost always have the best grade. Paramedic school is extremely difficult. Or so they say. Nothing has ever been hard for me.

    But I feel like I'm not reaching my true potential. I know I have the mental capacity for so much more, and now that I have adderall I'm finally on chapter 4 in my electrocardiography book, but I'm still way behind. We've been tested on the entire book already. I've passed it, of course. With 100%.

    But I want to be able to read my material. I want to be the best medic my patients can have. I am already am EMT, which is honestly not difficult, but a critical care paramedic is an entirely different story.

    How do I reach my true potential?

    Ps its not just school work. I'm great at sports, playing music, writing and being creative, and... just about everything. But can't even sit through a movie I'm so ADHD.

  • Weird side-effects of wellbutrin?

    I have adult adhd.

    I take wellbutrin 75mg PO and am very consistent with it. I'm about 2.5 months in. Lately I have been feeling this tingling sensation running down my spine or at the base of my skull. Sometimes it makes me feel almost high or something.

    I felt the exact same way when I was withdrawing from citalopram a couple of years ago. I got prescribed that for "anxiety" which actually turned out to be adhd.

    Sometimes when I take a step or turn my head it just happens out of the blue and has been happening more and more.

    Started about a week ago.

    It is not helping with my concentration. It makes me slightly less spastic. I have no other side effects besides an increased sex drive.

    Anyone go through the same thing? Will this go away?

    It's annoying and I have a doctor's appointment in 2 weeks where I may not be able to go because I am starting a new job and want to be as impressive as possible so I would postpone it if needed.

  • adhd medication not working?

    I take wellbutrin 75mg po daily for add but I still can't concentrate. I'm in paramedic school and the only thing that saves me is an incredibly high IQ.

    But I would like to actually be able to study and read so I can realize my true potential. Anyone know any diets or home remedies thay have helped?

    And I don't like taking adderall. It works fine for me but when I start coming off of it I get paranoid and think the world is ending.

    I've tried phosphatydilserine, dha, ginkgo biloba, melatonin

    Unfortunately I can't remember to take them on a daily basis so idk if they work

  • Can you get in trouble if someone underage lied to you and said they were older and you slept with them?

    This is like 4 different questions.

    I have never done this but I was just wondering what would happen. What if they had a fake ID?

    I am 23 and personally am attracted to older women. I find it a trend in past relationships and younger girls generally turn me off. But I have had 2 situations where someone has lied to me about age.

    One was this girl was at a bar drinking on a fake ID and I met her. She told me she was 21. I was 20. She was actually only 19.

    Another was only 20 and lied to me and said she was 22. We were drinking together even though I never bought her a drink or gave her one. Could I get in trouble if I had?

    And it got me thinking... can someone get in trouble if they were to do something sexual with say a 16-year-old that lied to them about age? Especially with a fake ID?

    Also, what if you are wasted and a 17 year old takes advantage of you? This one HAS happened to me, but we didn't have sex because I managed to get her off of me. I was 22.

    And fourth question: do you think I have it easier as a girl? If the 17 year old managed to take full advantage of me, would the fact that I'm a girl make it more believable that she was the aggressor? Because believe me she was.

    Suffice it to say... I don't drink much anymore.

  • Does love really change things this much?

    I post a bunch of questions on here but never really get answers. It's either people who don't understand what I'm trying to say & call me evil for admitting I'm a sociopath, or people trying to explain to me what a sociopath is when I obviously already know.

    So unless you have SOME foundation in psychology, go elsewhere please.

    I just don't know where to turn.

    As a sociopath, I rarely feel anything emotionally. I go through my days as a logical process & rarely get stimulus of the emotional kind. I have to logically think about how I should react to situations around me before I do so.

    Except when I'm with my ex. When I'm with her, I'm not empty. I'm always feeling something even if I don't know what it is because I don't ever feel whatever it is I'm feeling. I don't get it. Its not all the time, but today we've been together the entire day & I feel full of... something. Where usually there is nothing.

    What am I feeling? Am I now capable of certain emotions just because I'm in love? I thought those areas of my brain hadn't developed? Or were they just not active before?

    It affects everything. Usually when I walk around, I am analyzing those around me. I feel like a wolf in sheeps skin hiding who I am to fit in. I laugh at how oblivious the populous can be. I feel invisible.

    But with this woman, I feel maybe... like a normal person would? Why?

    I'm not analyzing. She practically shuts off my brain. I just... something is inside. Why?

  • music with weird or changing beats?

    Not breakbeats. The ones I've searched doesn't really change. I have a hyperactive brain and adhd so normal music bores me. I found nexus 6 by andrew bayer which is nice and not boring. Usually I listen to a song for a minute and skip it.

    I need music I can listen to. Any ideas? Or good beats that are hard to understand. Something not 4/4 time. Like bayer's

  • What does it mean if she's jealous?

    My ex and I broke up 2 months ago. She knows I'm still in love with her and we hang out whenever we can. We're good friends. I have my own drawer in her dresser, keys to her apartment, and loofah in the bathroom. We're like best friends.

    Since we broke up she has made absolutely no passes at me and doesn't seem to have those kinds of feelings. I'm extremely good at reading people, but she has always been hard to read.

    I guess it's why I like her. Reading her is almost impossible. I control my outward reactions to things, so I'm hard to read, too.

    Last Friday she had a party at her house and we were drinking. She was catching up with old friends and I was hanging out with her sister and sister's best friend. At one point I went and stood beside her friend while she was across the counter. We were all buzzed and her friend put her arm around me and started talking about how cute I was. She was just being friendly, but for a moment, in my ex's eyes, I saw anger. It was more than just annoyance or not liking what she saw, it was close to rage.

    Then it was gone. I have no doubt over what I saw, I just don't know WHY I saw it.

    She doesn't seem to like me that way most of the time, and she is also taking meds that doesn't allow her to feel sexual feelings. It also makes her depressed. She says being drunk makes her feel better.

    Why did she get so angry for a second? She looked like she was going to stab her friend.

    But why?

    She's 33. I'm 23. We're both girls.
