My Sims 3 is having issues loading after the latest update and EA isn't being very helpful in rectifying it. What other game can you build, design and decorate houses?

When doing breathing excersises either with mediation, hypnotherapy, etc, they always tell you to take a deep breath in through your nose and exhale through your mouth. It's easier for me to fall into the pattern of breathing in through mouth and out through my nose. Is there a difference?

I've just finished reading the two Kingdom of Xia by Cindy Pon and I really enjoyed the infusion of the ancient Chinese empire intertwining with myths, legends and the authors imagination.

http://cindypon.com/silver-phoenix/ - a link to the first novel for an idea of what I'm talking about. They are young adult, but I'm all growed up, so YA or just normal ages will do.

If you are a fan of fantasy, I highly recommend this series! Thanks fo your input.

I've added some custom content, and now my Sims 3 is running super slow. My graphic settings are set to medium or low, but I don't want to have to change ALL the settings to low. Is there anything I can do to speed it up?

I retain body heat really well and I sweat a lot when I play sports, it's not stinky sweat, but it is higher then average. During the winter I rarely get cold and in the summer I get super hot super easy. What causes this? And is it something I should be concerned about?

On Windows Vista it was located my Documents, Electronic Arts, etc, but I can't find it in Windows 7.

I noticed this morning when I got out of the shower that along my arms from just above my elbow and down my forearm I have zig zag looking green veins near the surface of the skin. It looks almost like someone took a marker and drew it on my skin. It's not from anything external, like clothes, because when I rub it it does not go away. It is on both arms but more pronounced on my right arm. I'm a 28yF in relatively good health.

My living room is painted in a dark matte taupe and I want to paint it a cream matte, should I prime the walls first or would I be able to get away with painting directly over top of the matte taupe?

Spiders don't freak me out or anything, I am a firm believer in live and let live, but I just moved into an older house and notice every morning when I get up I have a couple new spider bites (and yes I know what spider bites look like). Is there anything that's NOT a pesticide that I can spray on my covers and mattress that would deter a spider from crawling into my bed?

I have a D-SLR with a b&w setting on it. Does it make a difference in quality using the b&w setting AS you're taking the picture as opposed to using a photoshop application to change it to black and white afterwards?

Is it aboriginal? Or where does the actual word originate from and what does it mean?

We are getting married May 17, 2009 in a small town about 5 hours out of Edmonton, AB. If we hire a photographer from the city are we also responsible for their travel costs? What's a standard rate?

We are doing a 1000 km road trip (in one day) and the projected temperatures are for -30>-40 degrees C (around -31 F). Would covering my grill help prevent my engine from freezing? There is one very steep and long hill that the engine revs steadily for 10-15 minutes (manual transmission) , should we remove the cover for the hill?

The more detail you give, the more likely you are chosen as best answer!

Thanks.

Where in Edmonton can we elope? Is there an office or courthouse that has JP's there to do it? Or do we have to have the ceremony at our home?

My fiance and I are marrying May 2009 in British Columbia and want a friend to officiate, under the marriage act it needs to be solemnized by a Marriage Commissioner. I've searched the government pages but I can't find HOW someone gets appointed by the Vital Statistics Agency Chief Executive Officer to be a Marriage Commissioner.

I can never think of good songs on the fly when I want to download some new music. I'm looking for hard rock, alt, industrial. On a side note a couple of haunting songs (the kind that raise goosebumps). Thanks in advance!!

I share an internet connection with my fiance. His computer is a Sony Vao and mine is a HP Pavilion. We both have Windows Vista and Norton Anti- Virus, we both avoid unsafe sites and unknown download requests and yet my computer gets more virus, 2 to 1 then his.

We need some good dance songs and slow songs. The majority of my family are big country and western fans (not me so much, but I'd like to have some for them). No Rap, R&B or hip hop though.

I want to add more songs to my iPod, but I run a blank when searching for new music. Any suggestions? My tastes run pretty eclectic, the only kind of music I really don't like is hip hop, R&B and rap.
