  • Laptop powers on for a few seconds, then turns off...what's wrong and how can i fix it?

    when i press the power button, whether on AC power or battery, the lights turn on, but after 1 or 2 seconds it just goes off. the charging light is on when its plugged in, so its not completely dead. on a possibly (very) related note, my computer has been overheating lately, although it didn't recently (as in at least 3 days) have an overheating episode.

  • Will previously unpaid parking tickets on a rental car prevent obtaining a visa in the us?

    my boyfriend and i got two parking tickets on a rental car in november. me (being a complete idiot), forgot to pay them and they went to court and now total $110. they will be paid a month before he comes back to the us, although he's worrying that he won't get through customs if they know about the previous problem. is this something to worry about?

  • Who thinks that the America's Most Smartest Model finale was RIDICULOUS?

    VJ was the winner. But did he show any talent as a model during the show? The only skill he had was hocking products like soap and cars. He had no talent whatsoever as a photo model. I think him being the winner was the stupidest thing EVER.

  • Legal issues selling customized merchandise..?

    Is is legal (not some sort of copyrighting or anything) to purchase brand name items in bulk and customize them, selling them at a higher price?

    i'm interested in designing my own lingerie, but do not have the time, skills or effort involved in learning to create my own from material. bras are extremely difficult to make by hand, not to mention pricey. i was wondering if i purchased a large amount of retail ready bras/panties, and "made them my own", and then sold them, would that somehow violate any laws?

    This question applies to both the US and UK sizing. After a little bit of research I've come to the conclusion that they are the same size..is this true? Please explain.

  • How did Harry know about Hufflepuff's Cup being a horcrux?

    As much as I've tried to remember..i can't recall him ever realizing that it was a horcrux, let alone in existence! all i know is that he talked to griphook at shell cottage and then they broke in looking for hufflepuff's cup. how did he know what it looked like and that it was in the vault? and did he ever tell the others that he thought is was a horcrux before they got there?

  • is this wrong?

    ok, my boyfriend of one year is coming to the US to visit ME (he's from the UK)...

    he's staying at a hotel near my town, and the plan all along was that i would stay with him. we are both consenting adults and

    whatnot.

    however, my mom refuses to let me "shack up" with him and called me a sl*t.

    isn't it my choice? i am over 18 therefore an adult..i should think i'm capable of making that decision for myself..

    just wanting to hear people's opinions on this.. i honestly don't see any problem with it.

  • very dark urine with large particles?

    i've posted previous questions like this--but i've developed "new symptoms" and still have no idea what's wrong..

    for 3 weeks i've had abnormal urine, and from the second week to now having tons of tiny little particles floating around in it. this morning my urine was so dark it was orange/brown. and later i had urine with LARGE particles in it, in addition to the normal small ones. these large ones looked sort of like thin skin, only more flexible, and they were really white.

    also, i have abdominal pain that comes and goes, and today i've had lower back pain that comes and goes. i don't know if this is related, but i've also had terrible headaches for the last 3 days, and get hot/chills at night.

    however, i have no pain while urinating or intense urges. after voiding my bladder i do usually have the urge to go more, and "squeeze" out as much as i can once or twice. other than that, i don't wake up in the night or have sudden strong urges.

    please help me! =(

  • Opaque Urine?

    Earlier this week, I posted a question asking about a UTI with no pain. I am still experiencing all the same symptoms (come and go abdominal pain, oddly colored/scented urine, cloudy urine etc.) and now I've just had "opaque urine". It was like pure gold colored, and you could not see through it..other times it's been cloudy, but I've never seen it so "dense". I also had the sensation of having to go again, as I'd had before in my previous UTI, but I have no burning pain whatsoever. I was thinking that maybe my supposed infection is higher up(?), and missed my ureathra, leading to no burning? But I don't really know. What really shocked me was the opaqueness of the urine and what that could possibly mean?

  • UTI without pain?

    For the past couple weeks (2-3), i've had lower abdominal pain, usually after i urinate, but not always, and sometimes it just hurts, even without urination. my urine is usually very dark gold/yellow, although today it had a tangerine-ish tint, and itnalways has a ton of tiny particles floating around in it, with a weird sometimes sweetish scent. it seems thicker/heavier than i think it should be. there is no burning during or after, it's more of a pelvic ache. i have had a uti once, and i definitely know what that feels like! =( but i'm wondering if i could have another, without the intense pain?

  • aries sign, not so aries qualities..?

    i'm an aries, born 11 april and i read a lot of astrology books. everything i've read describes aries as a headstrong, competitive "rampaging" person, and i do show this sometimes. but in matters of romance, i'm completely anti-aries. instead of being independent, i WANT someone to nurture/take care of me. i love being in a relationship--i've completely given into the love. my boyfriend is a cancer, and i've wondered if i've adopted some of his traits, but i dunno. does anyone know what sign is influencing me?

    Every watch I look at is stainless steel, which I believe has nickel in it. I would just risk getting it anyway, but he breaks out in a rash- not a very happy birthday, right? lol.

  • Will it damage my computer to replace my 420 watt power supply with a 450 watt one?

    I thought that my current power supply (which burned out) was 450, but after buying the new one found out it was 420. Will it hurt the rest of my computer to run it on a higher wattage?
