Go Herd

I'm trying to lose weight and currently use ICBINB low fat but I can't find the fat free anywhere near me. I know they make it, or at least used to, but didn't know if there was somewhere I could order it online and get it shipped to me.

Thanks in advance for the help!

I'm reading up on hydroponic growing techniques (specifically tomatoes) and was just wondering how long they produce fruit (or veggies)? Does anyone out there have any idea?

Thank you!

I currently have two savings accounts (one account for regular savings and one for an upcoming trip) which earn interest differently. One earns interest at 0.25% quarterly and the other at 0.25% monthly.

Which account is earning me more interest in general (assuming they have he same amount of money in them?

Thank you!

I have Verizon and am wanting to upgrade from an LG enV Touch to a slimmer, lighter touch screen phone, but I don't want a data plan. From what I'm reading, the LG Dare and the LG Versa don't require a data package, but I was wondering what else is out there that doesn't require a data package and that is a thin and lightweight touch screen phone.

Thank you for your help!

I got an iPad 2 (16 GB) for Christmas and was wondering if it would be worth it to put a word processing app (similar to Microsoft Word, which I know cannot go on an Apple product) on it? I'm a grad school student and would love to be able to use it to write papers when I have it with me when I can't have a laptop. I've read a little about Apple's Pages and another Apple product that I can't remember off the top of my head but don't really know much about either.

This iPad does NOT have 3G or 4G but is a wi-fi only iPad, so I would need to be able to save all documents until I could e-mail them to myself if I am not in a wi-fi hotspot. Also, is there one where I could print from the program? I have a wireless printer and wi-fi at home so I'm thinking it should work if the iPad is capable of printing?

Thank you in advance for your help!

I'm trying to drink more water and hate the idea of drinking bottled water because of the price and the amount of bottles it produces. The water at my house is terrible, even when filtered through the refrigerator. I've been looking into both the Bobble and the Brita water bottle filtration systems and was wondering if either of these products are any good? If so, which is better?

Thanks!

My 5th generation iPod Video recently died and now I'm looking into getting an iPod Touch. The latest one was released in September of 2010 from what I'm reading but I was wondering if there would be another version out soon that I should wait for or if I should go ahead and get one now?

Thanks!

I had a nasty computer virus and had to have my hard drive wiped. Now I have an iPod full of songs and a completely empty iTunes library. If I plug in my iPod what will happen? Will it automatically sync or will I have a chance to not sync and copy my music to my library?

Thanks!

I got the System Tool computer virus on my computer last night (still not sure what triggered it, but that is not the issue at the moment). I downloaded the RKill software to remove it and deleted the Trojan Horses from my system. When that was done and I had restarted my system, my files were still missing from my computer. The directions I was following said to download Unhide.exe and run it, which I did. This restored about 10% of the files I had on my computer. I had a few things (things for grad school and a very few pictures) saved on disks and flash drives (which I have not yet put back onto my computer), but the majority of my files and pictures seem to be gone. Even when I search from the Startup menu, I cannot find them. Do I need to take my computer to a shop and have them try to restore the files or is there something else I can do to restore these files myself? I'm able to access the internet on the computer, but I am accessing e-mail through my school computer for the time being.

Thank you so much for your help.

I am currently a grad student and received a computer to take to class as a gift for Christmas. It does not have the full version of Microsoft Office on it (or at least the product key on the sticker on my computer won't let me register anything), so I will have to buy a full version. I know that you can get a discount through your school but you can only install the Suite on one computer. I have two computers (a personal laptop that only I use and now this computer that I use only for school) and was wanting to add it to both. Does anyone know how I can do this without purchasing the software twice?

Is there any kind of student discount for Office Home and Student 2010 or just the Office Professional Academic that is offered through the college? I really only need Word, Excel, and PowerPoint, so the extras that come along with Office Pro are useless and expensive for me.

Would there happen to be anywhere to legally purchase Home and Student 2010 cheaper than through Microsoft and would still allow me to download it on two computers?

Thank you!

I am a 24 year old graduate student and bio-behavioral research assistant. I currently have one credit card. I applied for a pre-approved credit card offer that I received in the mail through Discover and was denied (I had some school tuition charges on the card that I had paid off but apparently not before the time they checked my card balance). That was around the first of October, right around three months ago. I currently have 0 balance on my credit card. I'm wanting to get more credit in order to build my rating (not to use regularly and carry a balance) before I get out of college.

What is the best way to go about this? I've heard that after three months the previous credit check and denial will not have an effect on my being able to get more credit. Is this correct? What steps should I take in order to get the most credit possible to build the best credit rating I can at this point?

Thank you for your help!

I'm preparing for a geology exam and have come across some study guide questions that I cannot find in my book. They are:

What are the major stages in the evolution of humans during the Quaternary era?

Why are deep-sea sediments so useful for Quaternary geochronology and paleonevironmental studies?

How is the lower boundary of the Quaternary Period defined, and what fossils are most useful for recognizing this boundary?

Any help you could give me with any of these questions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

I am eligible to receive a discount on my cell phone plan (which I already have in place) as well as accessories through my work. I am trying to buy a bluetooth online but I do not know how to go about getting my 22% discount before I check out. Does anyone know how I can do this?

Thank you in advance for your help!

How do we process what we see? For example, if I'm approaching a stop light and the light turns from yellow to red, how do I process that change and how do I do it so quickly? This has just always baffled me!

We're going over sight right now in my neuroanatomy class and I don't seem to be grasping it very well. Can someone just run through the basic steps and a simplified version of what goes on for me? I've tried Googling it and can't seem to find anything basic that will help me understand exactly what the processes are.

Thanks!

When I was looking up Phenylephrine (an active ingredient in medicines like Dimetapp and Sudafed Cold and Sinus, I noticed the Phenylephrine has a side effect listed as "goosebumps." What causes this?

A 28-year-old man presented to the hospital complaining of uncontrollable twitching of his extremities. He had a long history of uncomplicated intranasal heroine use and denied intravenous (IV) drug use, other substance abuse, of medical or surgical problems. He noted that he had recently changed his supplier of heroine. On examination he was found to be well developed, well nourished, and obviously uncomfortable. His vital signs were: blood pressure: 138/84mm Hg; pulse, 110 beats/min, respiratory rate, 24breaths per minute, and rectal temperature, 99 degrees F (37.2 C). Physical examination was normal except for the neurological assessment. He was awake, alert, and fully oriented. His limbs showed irregular and bilateral spontaneous contractions, and their activity increased while he was examined. His mental status remained unchanged during these movements. Strength and sensation were within normal limits, and reflexes were brisk. Chovestk and Trousseau signs were negative.

The patient was attached toa cardiac monitor, and an IV line was inserted. Blood was sent for a complete blood count (CBC), serum electrolytes, glucose, calcium, magnesium, and creatine phosphokinase. A urinalysis was also requested. An electrocardiogram (ECG) showed a normal sinus rhythm with normal axis and intervals and a Motion artifact.

What is the different diagnosis of this patient's disorder? What are three possible physiological imbalances or toxins that could cause the above signs and/or symptoms?

Why is this probably not a seizure disorder?

What is the most likely diagnosis?

State the neurological mechanism behind the problem. (What neurotransmitter mechanism is at work here)?

How should the patient with this clinical presentation be evaluated (diagnostic test) and treated? What are two diagnostic tests that could be used?

What are two possible treatments for this problem?

Any help you could give me in figuring out what is wrong with this person would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for your help!
