  • The furnace is really warm feeling but it isnt heating the house?

    its snowing and cold and i noticed the furnace wasnt coming on. I turned up the temp on the thermostat and that didnt help so I reset the fuse, still didnt help. The furnace feels really warm I was thinking maybe it needs reset and this could have something to do with the power going out yesterday morning. Any suggestions on how I could reset the furnace like where the button is located?

  • What can I expect in the days/weeks following pacemaker surgery?

    My mom went into the hospital on Wednesday and after some tests it was decided that she needs a pacemaker. I am VERY worried not only about the surgery but the recovery process. How long before she can drive, go back to work (she is a RN). Also if anyone knows of any online support groups for families it would be awesome. I am having problems going through this alone.

  • Should I break up with my boyfriend, or suck it up?

    I met my boyfriend Mike 5 years ago on Match.com. We both lived in the same town. We met in person, and became boyfriend and girlfriend within a week. I know this was moving fast but I was so sure I was in love. He was the perfect boyfriend; he did nice things for me and was always willing to help. He always had a jealous side though like he always wanted to know who I was with and stuff like that. I always thought that was a part of being in a relationship, respecting the one you’re with. He never objected to me hanging out with girls, but always had a problem with me hanging out with guys. Growing up I was a huge tom boy so I really had a problem with that, but stuck with it anyway thinking a part of being in a relationship is losing touch with old friends, I was convinced good things were to come.

    After dating for a little over a year, my boyfriend moved in with me (I was living at my mom’s at the time). I knew the first day this was a bad idea when he told me that his aunt told his mom that the house I grew up with was condemned, when in reality it was bought by the government because there were plans to build a road thought it. My mom was never house-keeper of the year, but our home wasn’t that bad. At first my mom liked him because he cleaned a lot and helped around the house, but as time went on, my mom started expecting 300 dollars plus a month for “rent”. I agreed to pay her, but when it came time for me to want to move out I told her I wouldn’t be able to pay her because we were moving out by the end of the month. About a week later I came home from work on a Friday and she took the air conditioner out of my window in the middle of the summer and locked it up, she was yelling at me about not paying her, and left threatening messages on my voice mail. I knew then I had to leave. So, my boyfriend and I moved into his moms until I had the money to move into our apartment.

    In our apartment, all was well at first, but in time he became more of a father then a boyfriend, telling me when, where and how I could do what. I left him once but came back because he promised things would get better. Things got better for a while, but gradually got worse. He reads my mail (because he gets home before I do), reads my text messages while I am sleeping and monitors my phone calls. If a guy calls (even someone I go to school with) he will yell at me. He constantly tells me to hurry up and graduate and when I am doing homework he will ask me every 2 minutes if I am done yet. Also I have to go to bed when he goes to bed, or he will get mad. If I am ever on the phone with my mom he will bother me until I hang up like tickle my feet and stuff.

    My mom wants me to move home with her, but I am worried that if I do, it will go back to how it was before. She has been going through a lot too, my brother burglarized her house for drug money and she kicked him out (because I told her she had to or she would never be safe). My other brother isn’t living at home but he calls her all the time trying to get money from her. Last week he came over to help her and demanded 70 bucks she said no so he left. I go over and help my mom all the time with my boyfriend. It’s like he will do that stuff then be mean to me the rest of the night. I don’t know what to do, so what would you do move home with mom, or stay with the boyfriend? They are the only options. Please help!

  • Database problems in Visual Basic.Net 2008 Express Edition?

    I created a database in SQL 2005 which I know is compatible with VB.NET 2008. One field in particular is set to begin at number 500 and increment by 5 at each new feild. It looks like this in the query:

    CREATE TABLE PURCHASE (

    PurchaseNo int Not NULL Identity (500, 5),

    StoreID int Not Null,

    PriceUSD Numeric(9, 2) Not NULL,

    Date Datetime NULL,

    PurchaseDescription Char(30) NULL,

    NOTICE the PurchaseNo

    But when I put the database in vb.net 2008 express edition and go to add something, the PurchaseNo on the new record is negetive.

    How can I fix this?

    I have many books with vb.net 2003 - have the rules changed much since this version of vb.net?

    Please advise

    Thanks!

  • Pennsylvania Child Support Question?

    Around March 28th of this year, my mothers house was robbed. My mother immediatly suspected my brother was involved. While the police were at the house investigating she called my brothers school (he is 18 and was a senior) only to find out he was dropped from the enrollment because he missed too many days. To make a long story short, when he came home that night, my mom told him he needed to leave. Now today my mom got a letter in the mail for a hearing to update the child support agreement. The agreement states he has been out of school and working full time since February 2008. My mom has documentation showing he was in school until mid-march when he was kicked out. He wasn't working until right before easter. I told my mom to just bring the documentation with her to the hearing along with all my brothers medical bills which the child support agreement states my dad is responsible for half, only it was never enforced. My mom is still nervous about the whole hearing though.

  • In Pennsylvania, can charged off debt be claimed on a bankruptcy?

    I got a phone call last night while I was on my cell phone with my mother from a debt collector for credit card company. The lady told my boyfriend she needed to talk to me within the next 20 minutes or my debt would be charged off and that would stay on my credit report for 7 years. Im upset they told my boyfriend this as it doesnt involve him. I still called the lady back though and gave her my attorney info. I am wondering though:

    If a debt is charged off, can it be eliminated by filing chapter 7 bankruptcy?

    Will all the creditors I claimed on the bankruptcy still be on my credit report post bankruptcy. What about the charge offs?

  • I am convinced my brother robbed my mothers house. But, is this enough evidence to prove it in court?

    My mom works 3rd shift as a nurse. My brother who is 18, but not out of school lives with my mom. Yesterday my mom returned from work to find all the doors in her house unlocked and one set of foot prints in the snow leaving the house but none going in (it had been snowing all night). As she went inside she found things thrown all over dishes broken, her room completely trashed and all her jewelrey , her laptop the money in her room - GONE! The dog was also locked in the bathroom. She called the police and they came over and took pictures, confinscated a bong, a hookah and a crack pipe that were in my brothers room(my mom had no idea he was on drugs) and took a report. My moms first thought was something happened to my brother, so she called him at school only to find out he was kicked out for missing 10 days in a row. She later found out he was at work the whole day. When she called me I came over and helped clean. A few hours later my brother came home, the house was pretty clean
