Looking for help on ways to find a certain kind of website to use for research.?
I am writing articles for a company. They require that no matter what your article is on that you cite at least one source. The problem is that they recently changed requirements so that you can now ONLY cite a website that ends in .org, .edu or .gov.
Okay normally that sounds logical and simple since everyone can post anything they want on the web. The issue, I write about dating issues for a man's website. The topics they have must appeal to the average person, which is not something that is usually anything other than a matter of an opinion. I have spent a week trying to find credible ways to find sites like this, but have not had much luck. I need sites that offer ways to know when women are cheating, mentally unstable in a relationship, tips on date ideas or dating tips.
If you know any sites that offer credible articles on these topics, or a search engine that is better to use when looking for sites ending in .gov, .edu, or .org please share with me! Thank you so much!
1 AnswerOther - Education1 decade agoIf I want to get my Masters in Forensic Psychology what should I get my bachelors degree in?
I am trying to work at paying off old student loans to get back into school. My desire is to get my Forensic Psychology degree eventually. However I cannot find any reliable information on what is the best thing to get my bachelor degree in. Because I am already 23 I will most likely have to start getting into a real career after my bachelors degree while continuing my education, but I don't know what the best way to go about this plan is. I was just looking for some opinions from people who actually have experience in the fields.
I did read many times that a minor in criminal justice would be a good idea, should I do a major and a minor in bachelors degree, or in masters as well? I do live in CO if that makes any difference, I know the psychology requirements vary depending upon the sate you are in.
3 AnswersHigher Education (University +)1 decade agoWhich doctor should I listen to for treatment of my ankle? If either?
I injured my ankle in the middle of October. I was simply walking, tripped and thought that I just rolled my ankle and foot. I believed that it was nothing serious as did many people around me, it did not swell very big and hardly even bruised at all. I was strongly encouraged to rest it, take Advil, elevate it and rotate heat and cold on it. I did this until the past week it was finally getting to the point where I could no longer stand it. The pain seems to be spreading up my leg and becoming more intense. I finally chose to see a doctor. I went to a smaller clinic at first because I knew they gave discounts for self pay patients.
This doctor looked at my ankle and foot pretty extensively. He mentioned that I most likely tore ligaments in my ankle and was very concerned about my Akiles tendon because as he showed my boyfriend it was hardly responding on my hurt ankle when compared to my other ankle. He strongly encouraged me to go to another doctors office who did in house x-rays so that it would not cost as much, yet he strongly believed that x-rays were needed to properly diagnose me as he said. He also said that I would need a walking boot at the least so that I would finally give my ankle a break and time to truly heal. He also stated that my foot was injured as well.
I then went to my old family doctor because I knew that they did x-rays in house and that the doctors looked at them themselves instead of sending them out. By the time that I saw this doctor I had already waited 2 hours in their waiting room so now I am really starting to wonder about a lot of what she said. As soon as she walked into the room before even looking at me said that x-rays were not going to tell us a thing and they were completely pointless. She then looked at my foot, and I will admit she looked more at my foot than the first doctor did. However when I tried to explain that I had constant pain in the back of my ankle and up my calf she just said that I did not. If I mentioned anything that the first doctor said she would just put her hands in the air and wave them around. She said that my foot was hurt where all of the bones connect together and that now I have severe arthritis in my foot. About my third time asking what to do for the pain in the back of my ankle she finally responded with well your foot is small so the pain has to go somewhere. It seemed very strange to me, but I had a migraine and was very hopeful that she was right and nothing was wrong. Her treatment recommendation was to keep doing everything that I had been doing from the beginning (advil every 4 hours, which I will admit I was not extremely strict with then but have been since, heating my ankle and foot when they hurt) and to stop using cold on my foot because I need to get new blood flowing into my foot. All of this did, and still do make sense. However, as I explain to her if I put heat on my foot it is swelling quite large and makes it EXTREMELY painful and difficult to walk on. I asked her about the boot that the other doctor recommended and she said their expensive. I do not have insurance so it was nice that she was concerned, but she did not say it would not help. She said to try doing this treatment for 10 more days and unless I am surprisingly better come back. I have since left a message for her asking if she understands this is what I have been doing the entire time and asking if the boot would help because that was not clear to me. She only works part time though so I am not sure when I will hear back from her again.
To explain I get pain in the back of my ankle pretty much at all times. When I try to stand or walk it hurts throughout my ankle and on the bottom of my foot towards the heel but on the outside. It is very hard to move my toes (the second doctor said this was not a concern but I was not sure) and it is painful when I do move them. Not extreme pain but very uncomfortable. The swelling in my foot goes throughout all of it and even around the whole back part of my foot, sometimes even up to the middle of my calf. It swells daily, even if I try to elevate it often, but when I wake up it usually is not swollen. I work from home so I do try to walk as little as possible, but when I do walk it is very difficult. As I explained the the doctors when they move my foot and ankle around for the most part it was not severe pain, but it was uncomfortable and it is very stiff and hard to move on my own. I am not sure what else you need to know, but if anyone has any idea which doctor I should listen to please let me know! I just know I finally went to the doctors and paid so much money because I was wanting to end the pain not be told to do the same then for another week (after 6) then come in to pay another office visit and then "talk about some other things to try" as the second doctor said. I do understand I should have went in right away but I didn't because I didn't want to pay over $100 to be told to heat and take advil l
4 AnswersInjuries1 decade agoHow to make my jaw stop throbbing?
My poor young body has been through a lot ha ha. While I was between 8th grade and 11th grade I was in 7 car accidents. No I am not a terrible driver I was not driving in any of them ha ha! Three of them were pretty bad ones. Two of them were drunk drivers which clearly explains how bad they really were. In just one of the car accidents I sprained my neck, back, elbow, as well as dislocated my knee and shoulder, and broke my wrist and hand. Since so many things were injured at one time it was very hard to get everything to heal properly. I have since then always had a lot of issues with my body being very sensitive. The last few weeks my shoulder keeps slipping back out of place and causing a lot of tension on my neck and back. Since last Sunday my shoulder has been bothering me a lot as well as my neck and back. What is new though is that fact that my jaw keeps tensing up and now the last two days has been extremely hard to chew or move it. It also has been making popping noises whenever I do open it far enough to eat something. Today it feels as though it is throbbing. I do not have insurance so I cannot go to the doctor, or least am hoping not to have to go. What should I do, is there an over the counter medication that will help the jaw feel less tense and not as swollen?
Thank you so much!
2 AnswersInjuries1 decade agoA Creative Name For My Blog?
I am creating an advice blog of sorts. It will be a mixture of others asking questions that I answer as well as me just writing about person or friend's experiences. I was planning for a name of Truth Hurts, however, I found out that is already the name of someone else's blog. The name of a blog is a large portion of it's success. Any ideas on what a better name would be?
4 AnswersOther - Family & Relationships1 decade agoCan I go to a tanning bed at all?
I take a medication called Amitriptylin to prevent migraines. The bottle says to avoid exposure to Direct And/Or Artificial Sunlight While taking this medicine. There are two weddings coming up and in both I have to wear very light colored dresses and I am extremely white :). I am not sure if I can go to a tanning bed at all, or if I should just use a liquid tanner. Also which Liquid tanner would be the best to use?
