  • Minor accident question?

    I'm in the right lane at a light.. it goes straight. Tractor Trailer is in the left lane which turns left only. I see no blinker (could have been on but I honestly didn't see it). Light changes and I go towards my right turn and suddenly see tractor trailer lights coming at me so I swerve to the right and he just clips some of the back of my car .. nothing major. We pull over and he says "I know you didn't mean to hit me".. I said uh you hit me. No witnesses but I'm trying to get the traffic video. If I were in the wrong then I'll own up to the error. I have no problem with that. Anyone been in this situation? Right now it is a he said she said type of situation.

  • jQuery Please Wait?

    So I know the page load works for jQuery.. ex:

    <script>

    $(window).load(function(){

    $('#Loading').fadeOut(2000);

    });

    </script>

    So a quick rundown..

    When I go to a specific page I have, the jQuery properly loads the "waiting" image and fades out.

    When the page loads, there are some options to click.. when you click on them (they are <a> links).. they do a GET to my page. The page reloads and because there is a process in the back that takes a while, what happens is that the image (please wait) shows up AFTER the processing is done. So the only time it works on load first.. is when going to the page. After clicking on the link that runs some system calls, the page shows reloading bu the image only shows up after it is done and then fades away.

    Thoughts?

  • Child Support Question?

    So my wife has custody of my step-daughter (her daughter). Her father is over 4k behind and after years they finally sent a letter to him about a hearing. Somehow because she was there for a couple of weeks recently, he went and stated that she is living with him. Keep in mind my wife has custody and she was only staying there for a couple of weeks. Somehow they dropped his arrears because of his "hearsay". So we had to send a certified letter stating this is not true. Now the filed for child support even though nothing has changed. Is this even legal for Domestics to entertain because apparently we will be getting a letter about having to go to a hearing to pay child support.

    * She lives at home with us

    * She attends the School in OUR district (He lives in another town)

    * My Step-Daughter even said she lives with us

    * No custody order has been changed ever giving him custody

    How can they go off of the word of someone who has not even been paying child support. He is doing it because he was ordered to pay $400 to stay out of jail and didn't want to pay it..

    Thoughts? As far as I know he doesn't stand a chance but it appears Domestics just jumped right on his side without ANY PROOF.

  • Dryer Squeal?

    So some information since I know this will be asked.

    First - Dryer wouldn't spin, push the button just the noise trying to start. Took the dryer apart and pulled the drum out. Tried spinning the motor by hand and it was stuck, after a little back and forth, it spun fine. Put the dryer back together, all was good.

    Second - Today, it started squealing, pulled the dryer apart again. It does spin just squeals, I checked the dryer padding and knew it was not that, checked the belt, nope.. spun the motor by hand.. it spins but has some squeak.. then it stopped.

    Put the dryer back together, and ran fine then started squealing .. then goes away.. then comes back and stays. Turned the dryer off.. so I know 100% it is the motor. My question is this, can you grease the motor or do I need to replace it. Priced one for $133 shipped so it isn't too bad.. 4-5 business days. Just didn't know if the squealing is something that people have come across and simply greased.. heating element is fine..

    Thanks.

  • Dentists that threaten your kids?

    Just like it says.. so I took my daughter to a dentist in Scranton.. not knowing that my step-daughter had gone to this dentist as well. My daughter is 6yrs old. They pulled her into a room by herself and would not let me go in. After about 45 minutes, I asked a lady to check on her. She came back and said my daughter asked if she would have to wait until tomorrow to see me.. (started thinking.. WTF is going on?) My daughter gets done and is crying.. she won't talk to me the whole ride home and the next day she told me why she doesn't want to go back to the dentist. They hygienist (a lady) told her that if she didn't stop crying she would make her wait even longer to see me.. Had I heard this that day there would have been major problems... Then I remembered my step-daughter was crying when she went a year ago and said they threatened her with a shot if she didn't stop crying... I called and flipped and they didn't sound surprised.. and said they would talk to the owner.. the (dentist). My daughter said the dentist was nice but the lady even pulled her away and told her she was being silly.. I bit my tongue but now I am furious.. .Anyone ever been through this???? I don't think an apology is enough because who knows how many other kids have had this type of treatment.
