This is my first credit card, so I'm a n00b to understanding how credit works.

I have a $1500 limit.

I never use above 30%.

I pretty much stay under $200 every month, and I always pay it off in full like a day or two before the due date.

It's been 8 months since I had it.

Credit Karma says it's been 673 for the last 4 months. Why isn't it going up anymore? It went up 4 months ago by 11 points. Is this normal?

I took the very last active (day 21 blue) pill when I was supposed to take the Day 4 white pill. It's 10pm so I can't call a Doctor right now to ask this.

Last month I missed the very last active pill, buy since my period was about to start I never took it, and would just start fresh anyway with a new pack. I also don't ever take my inacticve pills.

Well tonight I grabbed the wrong pack because I shook it to make sure it wasn't the old empty one...forgetting that I always leave the last 7 pills in the pack untouched. While driving tonight, without even looking I turned the dial and popped that last active pill that I missed from last month. I turned on the light and realized what I had done, so I found the new pack and took the correct one eight after, which was the 4th white pill for the first week. now I'm wondering if that was such. Good idea...Am I still protected as long as I continue the new pack as normal since there are no missing pills from my current pack??

Thanks in advance...

I got my 15" MacBook Air Dec2011, so I've only had it for a month. Today I was only using Safari and Evermote and Powerpoint, had it plugged into the adapter and it randomly shut off in a split second and I can't get get it to turn back on.

I unplugged it and let it cool for an hour and it still won't turn on. Did it overheat? The adapter felt really hot and so did the labtop, but I'm not sure if that means anything. (I'm not tech savvy so can anyone explain what's going on?) I'm taking it to the store tomorrow because I have a warranty but I still wanna know what others have to say.

I've learned gnats are attracted to fruit & We keep a bowl of apples, bananas and oranges on the counter. I never see gnats around the fruit bowl, but I will always see no more than one or two that appear when I'm eating at the dinner table. How can I prevent gnats in the house? And how else should I store my fruit? Its gotten to the point where I'll see one upstairs in my room or in my bathroom. I could understand if it was summer, but its 30 degrees outside and gnats aren't around. Any advice?

Oh also we have a plant in every room (I don't know if that has anything to do with it either but I never see gnats in there either)

A large fish hangs from a spring balance supported from the roof of an elevator. If the elevator has an upward acceleration of 2.45m/s^2 and the balance reads 60.0N , what is the true weight of the fish?

I know the answer is W=48N since

F=ma = m(g+a)

60N = m (9.8 +2.45)

m=4.9

W= mg

W= (4.9)*(9.8)=48N

BUTTTT I don't understand why you add 9.8 + 2.45. Why isn't g negative it like (2.45) + (-9.8) since the acceleration is upwards and gravity is always downwards?????????????????? this doesn't make any sense to me.

can someone explain this to me??

I'm trying to gain muscle. I usually drink it like IMMEDIATELY after a workouy but is that too soon?

Please name a few and where can I buy them. I'm tired of these crappy polishes I have. Thanks!

I got China Glaze nail Polish and I applied two coats after a base coat and even a top coat by China Glaze at the end as well (From what I understand is a good brand)...so why when I put more than one coat I get fingerprints or DENTS or the polish scrapes off so easily (like if i went to open a drawer, it will just scrape off just my grazing the drawer handle!) But if I lightly touch the Polish it definitely feels dry. =\ please help

I have thick dry hair & I workout almost everyday. In the winter I don't sweat since it's cold, but it's Spring and it's getting WARM. I want my hair to grow and stay HEALTHY, so I know washing it everyday is HARSH on your hair, soooo.....

for my "non-shampoo days" is it enough if I just rinse my scalp and kinda massage it with the pads of my fingers??? or is that just not effective? it kinda sounds like washing hands without soap =/

I'm completely ignorant when it comes to politics and government issues. Scold me all you want but I'm more interested in passing my Physics Intro class than what's on the news. But my mom made me watch the news today and the Federal gov might shut down???? I was wondering if anyone could tell me if we spent too much money on unecessary things to put us in so much debt and maybe name a few things so I can better understand. Thanks :D

My scalp peels into flakes and I end up with embarrasing dandruff even WITHOUT scratching! Head and Shoulders is not working, in fact I think it's making my scalp even dryer I used conditioner on my scalp and that didn't do anything either. I only wash every other day or every 2 days (my scalp doesnt get oily, I guess because my hair is so thick...) Can anyone help?

A car starts from rest and moves with constant acceleration a = 1.2m/s^2. find:

c) car's velocity after it travels 100m

d) time it takes to travel 100m

if the car starts breaking after 20sec with a rate a =-3.5m/s^2

e) the distance it will pass before coming to a complete stop.ss before coming to a complete stop.

as far as I know I need the time, but to find the time I need average velocity. How do I find average velocity if the Vf (final velocity) is unknown.... please help!

For the past couple of days I've been sick with a cold. I've had the chills and a slight fever so of course I sleep under the blanket bc I'm freezing with chills before I fall asleep. but every time I fall asleep, even for just an hour, I wake up drenched in sweat! My whole body is totally wet, and its weird bc I play soccer & I never sweat on my legs, but when I wake up, there's sweat all over even on my legs. & when I wake up I stop sweating immediately and then I'm freezing again (maybe bc all the sweat). What is going on? Is it because I'm sick? This has never happened before

But mostly for eye-firming (lifting). For my mom. She's 49 and is tan (Filipina). Please only name products you've tested or seen results or know somebody. (skin stuff is expensive nah mean? LoL)

ok first off, I'm a competitive college soccer player. I AM IN SHAPE, 19 yrs old, 135 lbs...but...the past 2 weeks I get winded on stairs

At practive the other night it was -2 degrees Celcius (not including the wind chill), and we were doing sprints for like 15 min (long time for sprints) and I swear i felt like my lungs wanted to burst through my rib cage, I thought I was going to pass out hyperventalating! I seriously couldn't catch my breath for the life of me for like 5 min! and it STILL feels like that my lungs are CONSTRICTED everytime I inhale! I feel it in my back and in my chest ESPECIALLY taking a deep breath.

Can your sports bra constrict your lungs/rib cage??? (I wear 2 even though I'm only a B)

Could it be the cold, dense air?

OR COULD I BE DEVELOPING ASTHMA????? I thought you had to be born with it.

If a car moving at 86.0 takes 300 to stop with uniform acceleration after its brakes are applied, how far will it take to stop under the same conditions if its initial velocity is 43.0 ?

No idea how to approach this, 5 stars show answer and how you got it pretty please.

here are the options

15.0 ft

37.5 ft

75.0 ft

150 ft

I was told that hot water is bad for your skin b/c it depletes your skin of moisture & natural oils??? same with certain soaps. but I LOVE hot water, & I don't feel clean unless I have that SQUEAKY feeling when I rinse. I wasn't sure if that was true, but if so, is it okay as long as I use lotion afterwards? I go crazy with thick lotion to keep my skin soft and to prevent premature aging and I ALSO take fish oil pills daily which is supposed to help the production of natural oils...so is this good enouh to make up for the hot shower and crazy cleansing soap?

I have these fish oil pills that have all three Omega 3,6,& 9 combined and the directions say take one pill three times a day with a meal, but I never remember them until night time. So I end up taking all three at once. I figure it's like the equivelent of having a big hunk of salmon for dinner once a day so why not? Am I losing nutritional value or does it matter?
