  • How long should you cough up phlegm every morning after quitting smoking?

    Hi, my dad stopped smoking 13 years ago, but he still coughs up "phlegm" every morning out of habit. I've read online that it shouldn't take more than 2 years to cough up all the phlegm in your body to get rid of all the toxins.

    Is it still necessary for him to do it every morning?

    Thanks in advance

  • How to make my dad stop gagging (intentionally) every morning?

    Hi,

    I don't know why my dad has this disgusting habit of gagging every morning. He stopped smoking about 13 years ago and he tells me he started gagging "to clear the throat of the bad stuff due to cigarettes". I have never heard of anyone doing this and I'm pretty sure it isn't healthy.

    How do I make him stop? And what are the health risks (if there are any)?

    Thanks in advance!

  • Should I stop working out my chest until my posterior delts are in balance with my anterior delts?

    Hello, 2 weeks ago I hurt my shoulder during a chest workout (pain really started when I did incline dumbbell presses). I decided to go to the doctor and he told me my posterior delts aren t quite as developed as my anterior delts, which caused the pains. He told me to do workouts that focus the posterior delts more.

    Should I stop doing chest exercises entirely? Or should I just use lighter weights until my posterior delts are in balance?

    Any help is appreciated, thanks!

    A re-positioning can be reconsidered over strategic reasons, but I was wondering why it would be so complex to re-position a company in the magazine industry? Is it because it will lose its loyal readers? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • How to solve this logarithm question?

    A manufacturer invented a machine with which he produces beer on the basis of an amount of water (h). The relationship between the produced quantity of beer (q) en the amount of water input (h, both in hectoliter) is given by the following formula:

    q= (2^9log 8(h-1) + 2 . log4(300) ) / 90

    The total cost (TC) in fucntion of the amount of water input is given by TC(h) = 1600 . log16 (4^h)

    The beer is being sold at a price of $30/hectoliter

    At what amount of input (h) do we reach a break-even point (no wins nor losses)

    What is the amount of produced quantity q?

    I've tried converting the logs so that they all share the same base but that has got me stuck as well, any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks in advance!

  • How long should I charge my Galaxy Note 3 for the first time?

    I've recently bought a Galaxy Note 3 and I was wondering how long I should charge it for the first time. I've read on several sites that it should be around 5 to 6 hours, but since the Note 3 has USB 3.0 and therefore charges more quickly, does it still need the 6 hour charge?

    Thanks in advance.

  • Do I need days off with this exercising routine?

    People that go to the gym tell me that exercising is 50% working out, and 50% resting. I don't really work out that hard but I was wondering if I should take a day off in this routine.

    I basically alternate between push ups (120 - 160) and my ab work out (10 minutes), without taking any days off, in other words:

    Monday: push ups, Tuesday abs, Wednesday push ups, etc etc...

    I know it's not a lot but do I need to squeeze in a day of or two of resting?

    Thanks in advance.

Am I using too little cream? How much cream do I need to use to have enough, thick sauce, without the flavor getting lost?

  • Best earphones for less than €100?

    Hi, for the last year and a half I've used AKG Quincy Jones Q350 earphones, the sound quality is great but due to the lack of an L-shaped connector, either the right or left earphone stops working. I've had it repaired but recently they both stopped working. I don't want to buy the same earphones again, because I'm sure they will break (even though I take good care of them).

    So do you guys know any good earphones under €100, preferably with an L-shaped connector?

    Thanks in advance!
