  • Plastic bottle design - where do I get it made? Enterpreneur/Ideas?

    I have a new business venture that I would like to pursue. Without revealing much the product is similar to a shampoo bottle. There is nothing like it so I need to have it custom made. I know that I can go to alibaba and get it made in china but it would require too many quantities to be made. I am not there yet. I want to make it in the US (I live in So Cal) so the quantity is low.

    My thought process is that I would need to get a design over the a plastic company where they create the product. I don't know too much about injection molds but I think that comes later once I am ready to make multiple quantities.

    Where do I go for this type of business? I did a google search and found a few bottling companies such as petcon but they are in montreal canada. I would like to find something in CA but haven't had much luck.

    If anyone has experience or knowledge in manufacturing goods / idea of where to start, that would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you.

  • is there away to report illegal backyard breeding in los angeles county?

    I am sick of all of the illegal breeders out there and charging $350 - $500 for a dog! The law in los angeles states that it is illegal to breed dogs without a proper breeding permit.

    How can I report people? Where do I report? Please help. It has to stop and I will make it a mission to stop all the backyard breeders if I just could figure out where to report.

  • 65 year old male with only medicare part A - hospitalized for 6 days.?

    Last week, my dad who is 65 had to be rushed to the hospital for pancreatitis. He only has Medicare Part A and is considered low income.

    During his stay he had the following treatments:

    5 hours Emergency Room - Utrasound, CT Scan, pain meds

    2 nights private heart monitoring room - around the clock care, pain meds, blood pressure check, IV fluids, antibiotics, insulin shots, no meals

    2 nights semi private room - MRI, around the clock care, paint meds, blood pressure check, IV fluids, antibiotics, insulin shots, meals.

    We haven't received the bills yet but we were discharged after 6 days. Due to the swelling, we still need to go in to do an MRI to make sure what is causing the pancreatitis in a few weeks.

    My question is, out of this, what is covered in the medicare part A? After a lot of research, it doesn't look like Medicare part A will cover very much. We thought "hospital benefits" actually included, any kind of emergency treatment like what my dad got. We also didn't know what doctors will send you a seperate bill from their office.

    Can anyone add to this mess on what we can do? Should we be expecting a $300,000 + bill in all? Out of this what will be covered by medicare part A?

    **We are in the process of applying for Medical and have recenty had to do a "spend down" to bring our personal property limit to $3000.00 to be elibible. Does anyone have any other suggestions on what else we can do or show to our social worker to get us approved?

    Thanks in advance.

  • Can i get cable INTERNET without having to go through Time Warner?

    I do not want to use Time Warner for Cable TV or Internet. Are there other options for me?

    Cable Internet is preferred. (Can live without TV).

    I also would rather not go with DSL since we dont use a home land line.

    What options do I have?

    I looked into Cox Communications but they don't service my area. Is Time Warner the only company I can use for Cable Internet?

    Thanks in advance.

  • Perianal Cyst Surgery - Why do I have no pain after surgery?

    I had a perianal cyst surgery (open wound) 4 days ago and I still don't feel any pain! Doctor prescribed me Vicadin but I haven't had to use it.

    I assume they gave me a long lasting anesthetic but from what I read, this should be out of my system after 3-4 days. I'm going on day 5, do you think this is normal?

    What types of long lasting anesthetic could I have received?

  • Would you buy your dog a bunch of one dollar dog toys?

    We have a new business of making one dollar dog toys with or without squeaky toys. What do you think of this idea?

    We have a large breed dog that will tear up and unstuff her toys in a matter of minutes. no matter how expensive the toy, that is her thing. take out all the puff and the squeaky toy!!! So i always try to find the most inexpensive toys at walgreens.

    With my larger network of animal lovers, most of them feel my pain with their dogs and think that offering a one dollar toy would be nice.

    What are your thoughts?

  • Why do I get more channels than I subscribed (time warner)?

    I am totally confused with my cable service and what channels I am getting. Help!

    This is what I have:

    Time Warner Basic Cable Service $10 + $25

    What I am getting:

    Basic cable channels like the first 30 channels.

    With my Digital Plasma TV I am able to get lots of other channels like Golf, TNT, TBS, Oxygen, MTV, VH1, TLC, A&E, FX, etc. etc.

    I'm not complaining because I love watching all these channels but I am confused. When I did call Time Warner (carefully!) they told me that if I am getting more channels than the 30 I am picking up channels that are being aired by the state (I didn't get it but I didnt want to keep asking time warner).

    My question is:

    1. why I am getting more channels than I am paying from Time Warner.

    2. if I cancel my time warner basic cable, can I still get all of these digital channels?

    If anyone knows what is going on let me know.

    Oh and I only get these awesome channels only on my plasma and not my old TV (I assume because i need to get a digital converter for that). My TV is also set to cable and not AIR. When I do change it to air, I do get some channels that i dont get from Time Warner. Actually get like 60 channels but most are asian and spanish channels.

  • Are these 2 Custom Behr paint labels the same?

    I brought in a label from an existing paint job to Home Depot to duplicate. After I got home and started to paint, it is not the same color.

    The only difference that I see on the label is:

    BASE:7300- SATIN PREM PLUS INT SATIN ENAMEL

    vs

    BASE: 2-7300- SATIN PREM PLUS INT SATIN ENAMEL

    the other difference is:

    ({CM} CUSTOM COLOR MATCH)

    vs

    ({MAN} CUSTOM COLOR MATCH)

    Is there a difference here? Trying to see if I can try to return it because it is clearly not the same color to me.

    Thanks in advance.

  • Best way to build credit / credit history. (Credit Card payment questions)?

    When you are trying to build credit -

    1. does it matter if you spend $2 on your credit card versus $500? (assuming we pay 100% of the balance every month)

    2. We heard that to build credit it is best not to pay 100% of your credit card every month but pay off 90% one month, 80% another, 100% etc. etc. is this true?

    1. Assuming we spend less than 25% of our credit limit.

    2. Assuming we are responsible and will always pay monthly.

    3. Assuming we have excellent credit but lacking credit history.

    Thanks in advance.
