I am having difficulty finding information about rebates given by the U.S. government on the purchase of energy efficient window blinds. This is under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. companies such as Hunter Douglas (http://www.hunterdouglas.com/pdf/FAQsFederalTaxCre... and Blinds Chalet (http://www.blindschalet.com/taxcredit.aspx) have information on their websites. Is there a central website where I can find this information on all manufacturers of window blinds?

I have not been sold on eating organic foods until now. There was a recent study published showing a link between children with ADHD and produce grown using pesticides. I know some of you are choosing organically grown food. Do any of you have children that were once diagnosed with ADD/ADHD before changing to organic foods and noticed an improvement in their attention, behavior and/or school performance? How long did it take before you saw an improvement?

I would appreciate serious answers, please! Thank you!

Consignment stores come and go. What makes some so successful they are able to create franchise opportunities? What are they doing right?

My son has been talking to a 14 year old boy through one of his PS3 games he has been playing online. I am concerned about child predators. I have told my son not to give info out, but I know he may slip. Is there a way to restrict conversation? I don't want to spoil his fun, but I have heard how child predators work.

Serious answers please. I had a MVA over a year ago with a bad whiplash injury. Two weeks later, I started having numbness and pain in my hands and arms ONLY when I was asleep. I took anti-inflammatories for weeks, wore bilateral wrist splints that slightly hyperextended my wrists, and finally had an EMG done to rule out Carpel Tunnel. The EMG showed no problems with nerve conduction in either arm. It was thought my problem was in my neck. The MRI of my neck showed a disc bulge, but no herniation.

My orthopedic doctor believes my problem is in my arms. He explained the EMG only shows muscle innervation impairment. I thought it determined both nerve and muscle problems. Does anyone know the answer to this?

Any snake oil salesmen need not respond. Thank you!

I am looking for some great UK pop stars with a funky sound. I like the sound of K.T. Tunstall, Duffy, and Robbie Williams. If you know of a compilation CD, that would be great, too. Thanks for your help!

I know how to figure percentages of a number, like 85% of 500 is 425. If I do not know the starting amount before a percentage was calculated, how do I compute that? For example, I purchased an item for $500. I was told there was a savings of 15%, but I do not know the original price. I played around with the numbers to figure that the original price would have been $588.25.

Do you multiply $500 by 1.15, or something like that? Is there a name for this computation? Serious answers please.

I am looking for the Lego RC car. Lego makes a Nitro RC and a Nitro Menace. I can't find any info to say if the Menace is remote controlled. Which is the better toy? Thx!

I have never seen this type of math before. What is a reclusive formula, and what type of math is it? I don't remember it in Algebra, Geometry, or Trig. Can you explain how to solve the problem? I just need a basic explanation. I'm trying to help my son with his homework, and he doesn't understand. Thank you, in advance!

I haven't heard any former girlfriends, friends, co-workers, family, etc. talk about what he was like. What was his relationship with his family? Could it be that he really was THAT lonely?

I have not had many cats as a pet and I haven't seen this behavior before. My male cat walks between my feet when I'm walking. He sways back and forth and if I'm not looking down at him, I'll step on him. He does this even after I have petted him. I would think he would have learned by now not to do this or he'll get hurt. Why does he do this?

I was looking at other answers on a question I answered earlier. Can you believe this chick said almost exactly the same thing I did? She even used my way of talking! I have to hand it to her though, she didn't copy and paste my answer! What would you do?

I haven't had this happen to me, but I was curious if they person that is reported knows who reported them? What happens if your post is reported? JC, TY

Strange question, I know. I can't think of a logical answer. My husband and son slept inside a cave overnight. They both noticed they did not have "morning breath." Being males, they tested it out on each other. LOL Now, one ate sausage, onions and peppers and the other ate spaghetti. This should create a great medium for bad breath. Does sleeping in a cave have anything to do with them having fresh breath in the morning?

New at camping and hiking. My 12 year old is in Boy Scouts. He has packed light, but the backpack is still so bulky. We can't use a framed backpack because he will have to crawl through some low areas and push his stuff through the opening. I know there must be an easy way to put it all together. The load has to be light enough for a 12 year old child to carry on a caving expedition. Any suggestions is greatly appreciated!

I was in a car accident 1 year ago. We were hit from behind and I had a severe whiplash injury. About 1 week after the accident, I began having pain and numbness in both wrists only while sleeping. It took a long time to be free of the neck and back pain. I still have numbness and pain only when I am lying down. I have had it when my wrists were perfectly straight. I also notice it in the opposite hand of the side I am laying on. (Laying on the left, numbness in the right hand, and vice versa.) Also, I have it happen in my pinkie finger. I know you guys aren't doctors. I'm not asking for a diagnosis. I'm in the process of having an EMG tomorrow morning. I just wanted to know if anyone else had this happen to them.
