I bought this a few days ago from a friend. It's slightly used but has no scratches or damages. When it came in the mail, the second hand wasn't moving. I tried adjusting the time by pulling out the knob and turning it, and I've even tried messing with the buttons above and below the knob, but nothing has worked so far. I've tried wearing the watch in case it relies on movement to recharge or start functioning again, but still nothing works.

I can have two keepers for this upcoming 2014 season. Unlike most keeper leagues, the first two rounds of the draft are dedicated for keepers, regardless of the player. My first keeper is LeSean McCoy and my second was Josh Gordon, but of course Gordon had to get suspended for the entire year. The other people I'm considering keeping is Nick Foles, Colin Kaepernick, and Alshon Jeffery. Thanks in advance.

I am currently 15 and my birthday is on August 27. I went to the DMV back in May and they said the earliest I can take it is a month before my birthday, which means I could take it now. However, I went again a couple of weeks later and another person said the earliest I can take it is on my 16th birthday, which is what I originally thought. I'm not sure if this matters, but I haven't taken any drivers ed or anything like that. Thanks.

Right now, I have the PS3 and I'm looking to upgrade to the PS4. I have the PS Move with the nunchuk, controller, and the camera but can I use all of those with the PS4 or do I have get something completely separate?

Also, to go online, do you have to pay? I've heard some say that it's going to be like the PS3, which is free, but I've seen others that say something about the PS Plus, which is $50 a month or something like that. It'll likely not change anything but I'm still curious.

Finally, some trade in value questions. I don't really have much games for the PS3, I just have Madden 12 and 13, MLB: The Show 11 and 12, NBA 2K12, and Modern Warfare 2 as well as four controllers. How much do you think the trade-in value is for everything here? Since I have all "old" games, I don't think I'll get much out of them but maybe out of the controllers or the actual PS3.

The Flower Kings (TFK) are going on tour and will be playing in Stockholm tomorrow. The auditorium in which they are playing has exactly 10,000 seats. Demand for tickets is given by P = 100-Q(D)/1000.

a.) Suppose that we are not in a market equilibrium, but instead that TFK set a ticket price of 30. Are there seats unsold? Or is there a shortage? How large is it? Mark this surplus or shortage on a graph.

b.) Calculate the consumer surplus, producer surplus, and total surplus in part a. If any dead weight loss exists, mark it. If not, are consumer and producer surplus different in any way from the market equilibrium?

c.) Now suppose that we are in the market equilibrium. The government believes that ticket prices are too low and decides to set a price floor of 95. What are the implications in the market? In specific, are there any welfare losses? If no, explain why. If yes, draw the dead weight loss on the graph (no need to compute it).

d.) Now suppose that we are in the market equilibrium and the government levies a per-unit tax on consumers. Who will bear the burden of the tax and why? Would there be any dead weight loss from such a tax?

Thank you so much! This is for a homework and although it is graded on completion, I would like to understand it.

I'm in a 16 team league with 3 keepers per team. Most of the teams are keeping QBs from Aaron Rodgers to RGIII and Russell Wilson. Stafford is indefinitely going to be the best available QB and he's going to be taken in the first couple picks, and same with Demaryius but there are a lot of WRs still available like Vincent Jackson and Randall Cobb but they'll probably be taken before my pick (12th) too. My other two keepers are LeSean McCoy and Ray Rice. I'm kind of leaning to keeping Stafford.

I know it's a little early, but I was wondering if Ray Rice is going to disappoint this year. I noticed in the Ravens' Superbowl run, Pierce got the majority of the TDs. I'm in a 16-team keeper league, so should I try trading Rice for a better RB, like Doug Martin or Marshawn Lynch? My three keepers of now are LeSean McCoy, Matthew Stafford, and Rice, and I believe have two first round picks, where I'll probably choose a WR like Randall Cobb (as you can imagine, in a 16 team league, all the superstars like Megatron and Dez Bryan are taken). What should I do with Rice?

Or any other PS3 game do you recommend?

I'm in a 16 team league and we get to have 3 keepers each and someone offered LeSean McCoy and Dwayne Bowe (not planning to keep him) for Doug Martin (was planning to keep him) and Stevie Johnson (not planning to keep him. Is that a good trade? Doug's done really well this season but McCoy could get a healthy offensive line and a coach that would use his talent.

My AT&T contract ends in a week or two and it's time to replace my old Motorola Atrix. The Atrix started out well, but started to have problems, especially in the last 6 months. My older phone, the Samsung Impression, was in the same situation so I really want a phone that won't collapse after a year's use. I'm really leaning towards the iPhone 5 just because of how good the rumors have been and I don't really trust any other phone. However, I have also read that the Galaxy S3 is the same, if not better. Which one should I get and why? Thanks

My birthday is coming up and my aunt insists that she gets me something, so I've narrowed it down to these two things. I've read a couple of sites that say Madden 13 is really good, improving on graphics and adding things like new commentators. I understand that since the game hasn't come out, not many people know what it's like. I've also read on a couple of sites that the Playstation Move isn't bad, but it's not so good either. Which one should I get? Price doesn't matter.

Although I'm only going into 10th grade, my parents and I have gotten really interested in elite colleges. After much consideration, I have decided that I want to become an orthopedic doctor/surgeon. I take the highest possible courses for a future sophomore, taking Pre-Calculus honors, Chemistry honors, English (no honors available), Modern European History (no honors available), Theatre II (no honors available), Spanish II honors and gym/health (no honors available). I'm on JV water polo, varsity swimming, and JV baseball and I also do the musical. I go to an all boys private school that doesn't offer AP courses, in case you're wondering why I wasn't taking any. It was my first year last year, and I was a mid-A and occasional high-B student. However, it was a transition year for me, and I definitely plan to get all high-A's this year. Next summer, I plan to be a lifeguard at my country club and also plan to shadow my parents' friend, who is an orthopedic surgeon for the summer.

Enough talking about me, which elite college specializes in medicine, and which one should I go to?

Here are my preferences:

1. Harvard

2. Johns Hopkins

3. UPenn

4. Stanford

5. Duke

I want to hear your personal, honest opinion about me, and tell me what the best I can do is. Thanks!

So I just downloaded DeSmuME for my Mac to play Pokemon and everything's working smooth. I have the 0.9.7. version and all my games work. However, I want to go on GTS but it can't reach an access point or connect to my wifi. Does anyone know how to get wifi?

Another question I have (don't have to answer but it would be helpful) is it possible to trade from DeSmuME to DeSmuME or from Nintendo DS to DeSmuME? All answers are greatly appreciated!

I dropped my phone a couple of days ago but usually when I drop it, nothing happens. This time, when I dropped, the screen turned on bit appeared darker or in a different color. A couple of hours later, it wouldn't show anything but the screen and the buttons would light up. Now, I can turn on the phone and it works fine except for the brightness and when I try to turn it on q couple minutes later, only the screen and buttons light up. I have the Motorola ATRIX

So many people have already done this before but our rules are really strict. We're dropping our egg from 3 stories high and we can only use 20 bendy straws, one piece of paper, and a reasonable amount of tape. What is the best possible way to build this? I thought of making a cone-like basket for the egg so the edges of the straws will bend and reduce the impact for the egg. I was planning to take four straws and attach it to the basket and to the piece of paper. Is that a good idea? Thanks

I'm playing MLB 11: The Show franchise mode with the Phillies and I'm in the year 2013. I did my best to make the rosters as realistic as possible, but I can't do anything about injuries so last year when I won the World Series, Ryan Howard and Roy Oswalt were healthy the whole year. This year, I noticed my infield has been underperforming and I totally forgot about the age, so Cliff Lee, Utley, Rollins, and Chooch are 34 years old, Howard is 33, Polanco is 37, and Halladay and Oswalt are 35. I definitely want to blow up this amazing infield and believe me, it's hurting a lot but I have to so I can win. Should I trade away most of my stars for younger stars, like Buster Posey, Ian Kinsler, and others?

If you agree with my thinking, then who should I target? I always include Oswalt in my deals because I've never really liked him so i.e., when I offer Texas a deal, I always send Utley and Oswalt for Kinsler and I always get rejected. I usually target Boston (Pedroia), Texas (Kinsler), Yankees (Cano, Texiera, A-Rod retired but I wasn't planning on getting him), and the Mets (David Wright).

Could anyone please help me? I'm planning on getting MLB 12: The Show in a couple of weeks so to kill the time, I'm playing 11. Thanks!

I'm in a keepers league where we have to keep 3 players. There are four, maybe five players that come to my mind about who to keep and they are Ray Rice, Rob Gronkowski, Victor Cruz, Roddy White, and Steve Smith CAR. I think it's an obvious to keep Ray Rice after what he did last year and he still has a ton of potential and talent. A lot of experts are saying to not trust Gronk despite having 18 TDs last year and I'm stuck between 3 really amazing WRs. Who should the other two players be?

Then there's the draft and last year, I passed up the opportunity of getting Aaron Rodgers. I don't want to do that again, so I vowed to get the best QB out there. I'm in a big league (not sure how many guys are returning, maybe a 12 team league) and the best QB out there is Phillip Rivers but he doesn't have much help now that V-Jack is gone so basically all the good QBs are gone, including sleepers like Alex Smith and Romo. I was thinking of drafting RG3 over Andrew Luck because he'll have more weapons, assuming he goes to Washington, and he's a better Michael Vick, who's a fantasy beast. So I'm probably going to go with RG3 in the first round unless someone amazing is still out there. After drafting RG3, who else should I go for? Really appreciate it, thanks

I lost my Mac charger and a new one costs $80 but a friend is offering a used one for $50. Should I do it?

Personally, I think it's either the Knicks, Lakers, or Celtics but I'm not really sure. I want to start a franchise on NBA 2K12 (fantasy draft) and I want to play in the best arena with sick jerseys all the time. Which team comes to mind? I guess it can be retro but I prefer a current team. If you give both, that would be great. Thanks!

Here is my team:

Ryan Fitzpatrick

Jay Cutler

Roddy White

Santana Moss

A.J. Green

Mike Wallace

Steve Smith CAR

James Starks

Ray Rice

Isaac Redman

Rob Gronkowski

Greg Olsen

Jason Hanson

Texans defense

Chiefs defense

His team:

Tony Romo

Christian Ponder

Chris Johnson

Steven Jackson

Mike Williams TB

Greg Little

Jason Witten

CJ Spiller

Ben Tate

Danario Alexander

Nate Burleson

Jacoby Ford

Benjamin Watson

Matt Bryant

Cowboys defense

Also who else should I try to trade from my team and get from his team? Just say what you think, and then I'll decide whether to send the trades or not.
