  • How Do I Change my User Name on my eMail Address?

    I'm probably not wording this correctly. I have gone back to my maiden name and have changed all my ID. Now, I want to change my ymail to reflect my other ID. I've tried, and I think I have a yahoo mail account...somewhere in cyberspace, but I've never given it out to anyone because it's not the email that shows up when I open my email.

    The bottom line is, I want to go from catherinezakara@ymail.com to catherinemelnyk@ymail.com and have it appear. Then I can let others know. I feel foolish, giving people one name when I need to sign something and write my name, address etc. then on the email address line, it's something completely different.

    HELP!

  • Can a Frozen Shoulder and a Tear in a Rotator Cuff Ever Heal?

    I'm almost 57 years old. I had a bad fall on the ice and landed on my left shoulder. Apparently I had a small tear in my rotator cuff. Then after some other things, I ended up with a frozen shoulder. Unfortunately my right shoulder isn't much better. I've just had my second shot of a corticosteroid in my left shoulder this morning. But I don't know what to do next. How soon should I start exercising? What exercises should I do?

    I'd really any help. I'd also like to know if the injury and the healing process is age related.

    Tks.

  • I don't understand my best answer percentage?

    I have answered 2597 questions and my Best Answers are 1720. If there's one thing I'm really lousy at, it's math. So, I went into a percentage calculator and filled in these numbers. According to two online calculators, my Best Answers percentage should be about 66%.

    Did enter the numbers correctly, or is my Best Answers percentage way off?

    If it is, where do I go on YA to get it changed?

    Thanks

  • Why is there so much hostility between introverts and extroverts?

    I have found throughout my life that being an introvert is not easy in our society. Extroverts always seem to want to tell introverts that they (we, me) should get out more, we should enjoy life more. Frankly, they are confused by us, and we are confused by them.

    I am content reading, knitting, playing with my cat, and occassionally going out somewhere. Why is that so hard for extroverts to understand? What is your opinion.

  • My CD Player Isn't Working and I'm Getting Two Messages? Help!?

    I have an older 3-cd player that also has a radio, and an auxiliary outlet so I can listen to tv or movies through the speakers. This really has an awesome sound with 280 watts of power.

    However, when I put CD's in, I either get a message flashing across that says, "NO CD" or "CD NOT FINALIZED." These CD's are all store-bought and they've been working perfectly until my CD player started acting goofy about 3 weeks ago. Nothing will play, not even the CD Cleaner.

    Has the laser thing burned out? Does it need a special cleaner that I don't know about? I really hate to lose this great system.

    Help!

  • Why aren't I still set up as the administrator on my own computer?

    I've already gone into the control panel and looked at users. This area shows that the administrator is still set up. The other is turned off. Yet, when I am off my computer for a while, to get back on, I have to click on a box that I am not the administrator, and click OK to continue where it asks for a password.

    THE WORST OF IT IS, I have had Adobe Reader letting me know that there is an update to install. But, when I try and install it, at the end it says Install Failed. The reason being, that I am not the administrator.

    I keep running around in circles and I need the update for Adobe Reader.

    I don't know how this happened. I never go into the control panel to muck around with users. I live alone and no one else uses my computer.

    Please help!!!

  • How Do I Start Up My Psychology Practice After a Decade Off?

    I quit a practice I had back in another province. Let's just say I had too many personal tragedies to cope with and I quit. I moved almost 3000 miles away from where I was born and grew up. I had a private practice as a counsellor for almost 15 years. Now, I'm ready to get started again, but my financial situation is very different and I don't have any business contacts where I live now. I'm starting from scratch. If anyone has any ideas, I'd appreciate hearing them. Thanks

  • How many of you are trying to change your eating habits and lifestyle?

    I used to eat a lot of red meat and I was a basic meat, cooked vegetables and potatoes kind of person. I think that used to be what most people ate for supper. I've decided to give up red meat and instead opt for fish, chicken and turkey, eggs, low-fat cheese, yogurt, and add a lot more fresh, raw vegetables to my diet. That doesn't include the exercises I've started on a daily basis.

    Anyone else making radical lifestyle changes and finding it challenging?

    I should mention that I'm in my mid-50's, so this is a whole new mindset for me.

    I have been widowed for a very long time now. I was married to a terrific man who was cruely taken from me. Is it possible to believe that there is someone out there that I might love again? As you get older, it's harder to adapt to other people's peculiarities.

  • How Do You Locate Someone That You Haven't Seen in Years?

    I often think about a boyfriend I had in my teens. My birthday is February 4th and his is February 14th. I live thousands of miles away now, although I still live in Canada and I assume he does too. It's been decades since I've seen him. The last I heard he was getting a divorce and moving west. I live in the same province where he was moving.

    Without hiring an investigator, is there some way I can look for him online?

  • How do i get rid of spam that advertises married women looking for...?

    I'm a female. My real name is Catherine. Can't they tell which sex I am? Do they just send out some sort of mass mailer to millions of people or what? I'm sick of unsubscribing. With some of these you type out your email address and click on unsubsucribe and you have to do it again and again ad nauseum.

  • Why Do So Many Older People Have Their Greatest Accomplishments Near the End of Their Life?

    Whether it's composers, mathameticians, military figures, or other fields, many people make their contribution near the end of their lives. Why do you think that is the case?

    When I said military figures, I was actually thinking about Sir Winston Churchill who was called out of retirement, and made Prime Minister during WWII.

  • In your own words, what does Grace mean to you?

    Moses gave us the laws, but Jesus came to offer us His grace. We can't work for it, and we don't deserve it. Yet, it is the most profound gift offered to us in the Bible and probably one of the least understood or discussed. What do you think is meant by the word "grace"?
