  • Why aren't seasons 1 and 2 of the legend of korra on Netflix dvd?

    I've been searching the Internet for a while now trying to find out, but I can't find any answers. I get that you can't stream anything from nick on Netflix, because of a contract deal or something, but you can get the DVDs. But I want to know why season three of tlok is available for dvd, but not seasons 1 and 2. Why? What's the point? Will they add them soon?

  • How can you fix a muffled sound in Apple EarPods?

    I ordered brand new Apple EarPods on Amazon and they just came in today. I was expecting the best, because my old pair was amazing until it broke. So I put them in and they suck. It seems like they can be fixed, but I can't figure out how. They have a muffled sound, like a lot of ear wax is covering up the sounds. But they're not used, they're brand new. I really need to know how to fix this problem. Thank you.

  • Do Jehovah's witnesses usually know your name and address?

    So this morning, I was woken up by my dad because an old woman was at the door and requested to see me specifically. She knew my name and address. I don't know how... So I went to the door and she talked to me about how she sent anxiety magazines to my address and hoped that I read them. She also talked to me about how I should listen to God and read the Bible. She knew my name and address, and I don't know how or why. I think she tried to convert me specifically. I don't know why; I'm only a teenager. This is the first time a Jehovah's Witness has come to our door. I'm freaking out and I need to know if this is normal and if I should be concerned that a total stranger know who I am and where I live. Is this normal amongst Jehovah's witnesses?

  • How do you improve your reading speed?

    I have about a week and a half until I start my first year of highschool. I've finished 3/4 of my summer homework assignments, the last one being my English 9 Honors assignment. I have to read a book, I chose I am Malala, and I have to complete a 2-3 page rationale on it and a poster on the Swati culture. My eighth grade English teacher decided to put me in the honors class because she thinks that I have a lot of talent in writing stories and essays, but she ignored the fact that my reading speed and comprehension is really bad. I average at about 10 pages an hour, because I keep forgetting what I just read and I have to reread entire paragraphs over and over again. Because I'm an idiot, I waited until now to start really reading the book. So far I've read about a third of the book, but I fear I'm not going to finish reading in time. So, I need some tips on how to drastically improve my reading speed and comprehension. Don't give me any of that, "Find a distraction free environment" crap. I have ADHD, and even when I take my medication for it, "distraction free environments" don't exist. I've also discovered that reading out loud lowers my reading speed, but it majorly improves my comprehension so I'm not rereading paragraphs again and again. But I still need more tips. Please, and thank you.

  • How do you read without getting distracted?

    I have ADHD. I don't mind having it, or taking my medication. The only problem I have with it is reading. I love the idea of reading for pleasure, but for me it's almost impossible. I read very slowly so I can try to grasp most of the information, but it all instantly fades away as soon as I get to the next sentence. Even when I take my medication, my mind wanders off into thoughts that have nothing to do with the story. I get distracted by the smallest things. For example, I stop reading just to scratch an itch. I can't read and do something else at the same time. It takes me months to read just one novel. In school, my English teacher had us keep a reading log and record how much pages we've read in one class period. She wanted us all to read at least 30 pages in one period, but I averaged at about 7 pages per class. She said that I was lazy and had to improve my reading speed, but I honestly gave it 110% and I felt like I got worse. I've looked up tips on reading online, but none of them help. They all say the same thing: "find a distraction free environment". I feel like those articles are written by parents who think they understand their children's ADHD, but have it all wrong. Don't give me any of that crap. Distraction free environments don't exist. My question is how do I read without getting distracted? How to I keep the information instead of losing it so fast? How can I improve my reading speed? Please. I wouldn't be asking on Yahoo Answers if I wasn't desperate.

  • How can I read a book without... "Reading it?"?

    I was assigned summer homework for my school and I really want to get all of it done. One of my assignments was to read a book. The list of requirements was rediculous, so I won't bore you with any of them. The book I chose was I am Malala. So I need to finish the book and also finish two projects to go along with it. But here's the problem: I have ADHD, and that cause me to lose focus and zone out while reading, even when I take my medication. It usually takes me more than two months to finish a book like this... And after a month of procrastination I have about two more weeks to finish a book I've barely started. There's no chance of me finishing it by the time it's due. The only way I have a chance of passing my summer homework is to read the book, without reading it. I need to know everything I can about the story and Pakistani culture describe in it, without turning each and every page. I was told by a friend to read the first and last paragraph of each chapter, and then read a chapter summary, but I'm worried I may not get all of the necessary information for the projects, and just to be safe I need a second opinion. So what do you think? What should I do? Thank you.

  • How do you recover from seeing disgusting pictures?

  • Summary of the Maze Runner (book)?

    I'm screwed. I need a closure page for the Maze Runner, the book I was supposed to read in class. but, I never read it, because I'm lazy. I'll read the rest of it eventually, but I need a summary of the book so I know what I'm doing. Usually I hate spoilers, but I really have no choice other than to read 275 bagels in 3 hours before bed. Please and thank you.

  • Can somebody explain inversion in French?

    I'm trying to learn French and I am extremely confused with questions and inversion. I'm learning the language of the app called "Duolingo" and it didn't bother explaining why there were suddenly hyphens in questions. I had to look it up and it mentioned "inversion". After further researching, I kind of sort of get the basics of it, but to me it's just so damn confusing that I needed to come onto yahoo answers. I looked at the other answers on inversion on yahoo answers, but I still don't understand. I would greatly appreciate if someone can give me a thorough explanation of inversion to me. Please, no troll answers; I've only been learning French for about two months. Thank you.

  • In French, why are there "æ" and "œ" characters?

    I'm learning French and while learning, I've noticed a letter I've never seen before: œ. So I looked it up and saw that there's another character like that, although I haven't seen it before: æ. I've seen them before, I just don't know the point or meaning to them. Are the pronounced differently? Are they just optional and only used in formal writing when the two letters are next to eachother? When I looked it up, none of the websites even bothered explaining it to me, and this has been bugging me for about a month now. I would greatly appreciate if someone would explain this to me. Thank you.

  • I'm looking for a book...?

    This is a book from my childhood. I really love it and I might even still have it. I just don't know the name. I'm pretty sure it's a goosebumps book, but it might not be. It might not even be real, just something that was in my mind for all these years. I remember an elevator going sideways instead of up and down, and there was a camera that turned whoever was shot by it to black and white and teleported to another place. I remember there being 30 children who never aged, all of which were black and white. 25 of them had insane traditions and 5 of them were "normal." One of the 5 of the normal ones escaped this place and became friends with the two main characters. And that is all I remember. All I need is the name, if you have any idea what this is. Thank you.

  • How do you get a GameCube game to stop crashing?

    My brother needs help. He just bought quttich world cup for GameCube a couple days ago, a game he used to love as a kid. And it works great. That is, the first level works great. Every time you beat slytherin, during the celebration animation, the game crashes. I hate that game, but I also hate seeing him so upset. The disk is scratched up, but I really don't want to try anything like the toothpaste trick. I'm worried I'll break it and I'll have to get him a new copy. I also don't want to try anything too expensive, like bringing it to a shop. So I have a request: I need a trick that's quick and easy to do and is effective for this purpose. It cant be too risky or expensive. Please and thank you.
