  • Is it crazy to consider going to another college for another bachelors degree after already obtaining one?

    Hey, I hope I'm getting my point out clearly. But I graduate this December with a BBA in Computer Information Systems. However, there's plenty I know I need to learn before going for the next level of a degree. I say this because my college has a heavy focus on business, yet I want to get more into the science / in deep technical aspect of my field. For this reason, I do alot of studying and on my own of things my current school doesn't get into. I'm focusing on programming and networking specifically.

    But the main question, in my situation, is it bad that I'm considering all I've learned thus far as a strong foundation, and plan to go back to school after I graduate here even if I'm not going for my masters degree yet? I'm highly considering ITT tech. This, I know, may put be back another 4 years (as if I'm starting over) and be more expensive, but do you think it could pay off?

    Any advice at all would be highly appreciated.

    P.s, Yes I know I should have went for a computer science degree from the start, it's just that 4yrs ago, my situation, sorta lead me to where I am now.

  • How to cure an inflamed elbow nerve (funny bone area) that's causing numb fingers?

    Hey folks. So a nerve (I believe that's what it is) in my elbow seems to be swollen. It's been that way for a few months. I thought nothing of it at first because I thought it was probably a result of lifting weights or bumping it or something and it'd eventually get back to normal. Well, it didnt. And just 2 weeks ago, my pinky and ring finger got numb along with that side of my hand. Doc gave me naproxen 500 for the nerve and after the first day of taking it, the numbness of my ring finger went away. Yet, my pinky and that far side of my hand is still numb.

    I stopped taking the naproxen a couple days ago because I started getting pains in my upper abdomen right under my chest. That's slowly healing I think because it doesn't bother as much. Now that I'm feeling a bit better in that area, I've turned my focus back to my nerve and numb hand.

    Is there anything I can do on my own that I can help the nerve get back to normal. Ice, rubbing liquid, or something? I'm trying to do all I can to avoid building on to my medical bill. If it stays this way for a few more weeks then I suppose I should just go back for another solution but for now, I wanna know if there's anything I can do on my own.

    Thanks (sorry for long question, just had to get all the details out lol)

  • Halo Projector Headlights: Should both high & low beam bulbs be on when switched to high?

    I have these lights ( http://www.carid.com/1998-ford-explorer-headlights... ) ... and I'm a bit confused on whether when I have highs switched on, should the low beam (projector) go off or stay on?

    As currently wired, the lows go off when the highs come on. It would seem to make sence if they stayed on at the same time for more light. Currently, the lows are pretty low towards the ground but the highs seem to be putting more light towards the trees than the road so its extremely difficult to see when using them and GOD horrible during rain or fog. May just need a height adjustment tho. I kinda rushed when putting them in because I was leaving for college and my bro was the one to wire them.

    My right side low-beam burned out a few weeks ago and while I'll be replacing the bulb tomorrow, I need to take care of any issues while on them. Current state of driving with these are dangerous as there's a lack of visibility.

    Anyways, does anyone know if both bulbs should run simultaneously on high? For a 98 Ford explorer btw.

  • Would you go with free webhosting for a wedding website?

    Hello reader :)

    >Question is, would you go with free web hosting and exclude a domain name for a wedding website?

    >If I were to build one for someone, would you recommend going the cheaper route or not?

    >I figured since its not something that will just be accessed forever (probably not much soon after a wedding), saving some money going the free route would be ok.

    If you were doing this for a client, which would you choose?

  • Guys, how long is too long to wait for sex? Girls, how long would you make your guy wait?

    Ok so I've been in a relationship for 2 1/2 yrs. There's been no sex. It was fine at first but I'm growing quite tired of porn and rubbing one(s) off!! I've been quite frustrated with relationships lately and I'm thinking that's a huge part of why. Sex has never been my main focus, but the fact that it takes me damn near begging sometimes to even get my c**k touched, is getting irritating. No bj's or nothing like that. Yet, my gf likes me to finger her sometimes. Which the ration of me fingering to her rubbing it off is somewhere along the lines of about 95%.

    First relationship, all my ex wanted was sex. This relationship, there is no sex. She wanted to wait till marrige but I don't know if I can wait another 3 or 4 yrs after she goes to and completes graduate school. I'm 21, shes a few yrs older.

    I'm questioning very often if i don't want to even be in relationships anymore. And try to enjoy myself. We see eachother every evening after classes till about 10 or 11pm. After that, its to bed. Same routine everyday. I'm getting quite bored.

    Is it wrong for me to want to end a relationship partially because theres no sexual aspect? Also, answer the title questions guys and gals. Thanks

  • All of a sudden, I feel I don't wanna be in a relationship anymore. Help!?

    Ok so its quite odd that this feeling just came upon me. Its odd because all my life I've wanted to be in a relationship. I always said I wanted to settle down. First relationship when I was 17 (im 21 now), and have been in current one (second) for 2 1/2 yrs. I love my gf to death yet I just want to be to myself now.

    I've been trying to figure out who I am for quite some time. Lately however, I've been tryna figure out and decide who I wanna be. My life just kinda made a U-turn all of a sudden. I don't really practice my religion anymore. I feel seperated from God, yet I don't seem to care (kinda). I feel horrible.

    I've looked at the lives of other people and it seems they're having fun. Then I think about the fact that people say "you're young, get out and have some fun." Well, I cant really do that it seems. Also to note, sex really isn't something I've looked for in a relationship, but after these yrs in my current one, the "no sex till marrige", I kinda don't wanna wait anymore cause that could be another 3+ or so yrs from now. Its not what I want anymore tho my gf does. I don't wanna break her heart or hurt her an in anyway though. Thats the reason I've been so hesitant about seeing what she thinks about maybe being friends. Cause once I say that, I'm sure its gonna hurt from there. I don't wanna seem self centered or anything like that, but I just wanna "do what I wanna do for a change". Theres nothing wrong with our relationship though. We don't argue, or have really any issues. Its just I'm at a conflict of interest right now. When I think about being with her, I see all the things I wanted (family, kids, settling down etc), and those are great.

    I just don't know if I really care for those sorts of things anymore.

    Mostly, I'm just feeling a bit bored in life. Of the same routines. In college, I don't ever really go out. We pretty much spend the majority of time in my room. I go to classes, come back to room, study, do work, and bask in saddnest about the potential decisions I may make.

    I don't really know what I'm asking for sure, but I just need a bit of advice on maybe what you'd do or think I should do. What's wrong with me? Does this make me the moster I've always been against? Should I end the relationship, or should i stick it out. If end, how do i say so without hurting her as bad?

  • Texas Roadhouse Age Discrimination Lawsuit from 2011(what do you think about it?)?

    I'm doing a paper on the lawsuit this company faced and needed to get peoples thoughts/experience/feelings on the matter. 1) Have you faced any problems with them? 2) How do you feel about this case? 3) And in general, how do you feel about companies specifying a specific age group in which they are willing to hire, and the ages that they consider to be "to old" or "unproductive" and "unattractive" to their environment?

    You can answer any of these questions but preferrably all of them, however, any input on the subject is nice.

    Also, state your age. (Or a 5yr range of your age if you dont want to be too specific)

    Thanks, your help is much appreciated

  • How to make an ArrayList of objects of another class?

    Ok so I have a class and i need to make an ArrayList of the object of the class. Lets say for example, i have these two classes. . . Vehicle and VehicleTypes.

    In the Vehicle class i have a constructor which contains fields of a vehicle's characteristics. In VehicleTypes class, i want to be able to create dif vehicles (manufacturer, model, etc) and do this using an array list.

    How would i create an array list to do this:

    what i have is: ArrayList<Vehicle> vehicle = new ArrayList<Vehicle>();

    I thought this would work fine, but within my setter methods to get the info regarding the vehicle,

    i get "cannot make a static reference to a non static field vehicle". .when i add static in front of ArrayList (the statement where i created the list), i get the error msg:

    "the method setVehicleManufacturer(String) is undefined for type ArrayList<Vehicle>"

    What am i doing wrong? Im really not fimiliar with working with arrays or arraylists so if you could maybe give an example similar to what im trying to get done, it would be very helpful

    thanks

  • Java Try-Catch. How do i get it to loop around for more input after it executes once?

    Every time it executes and catches the error, it simply loops around and repeats till i terminate the execution myself or it executes then executes again and doesnt catch the error. For example:

    try {

    option = myScanner.nextInt();

    }

    catch (InputMismatchException e) {

    System.out.print. . . . . .

    }

    while ();

    }

    there's something thats suppose to go into the while method, but im not sure what. Any help / suggestions on what i can do to get pass this? thanks
