3 AnswersOther - Internet8 years agoidentifying bug bites?
My little brother woke up today with multiple itchy bites. We suspect bedbugs, as our mom recently stayed with people who had them, but the thing is that none of these bites are in groups of three like bedbug bites usually are. Some of the bites have visible puncture marks, and all of them are red, with most also being swollen. We are in a cold climate, up north, so I can't figure out what bugs would be active this time of year and what the bites would look like. Any help would be appreciated.
1 AnswerFirst Aid8 years agoFirefox thinks I have a tab open that I don't?
Firefox recently crashed, and upon reopening it I found that the tabs I had open in my last session were gone and I couldn't do the "restore previous session" button. So I started trying to get to the tabs I remembered by entering them in the address bar, only to find that it thought they were still open and wanted me to press the "switch to tab" button.
Is there a way to fix this, either so I can get my tabs back or so I can turn this off? Thanks.
1 AnswerOther - Internet8 years agoCan you use shampoo as body soap?
I know you can use soap as shampoo, but I've noticed that this makes my hair knot a lot easier. (My hair is very thick, I have a sensitive scalp... Yeah, i want to avoid knots if possible.) So if I were to be low on money, could I go the other way around and use shampoo as body soap?

1 AnswerConservation9 years agoIncorrect time on YMail messages?
The last few YMail messages I've gotten have said they were sent three hours later than they were. For example, if I got a message at 12:00, it would say I got one at 3:00 instead.
I also have messages from 2-2/12 years ago that are showing up as being from 1969.
Is there any way to fix these errors? Thanks.

2 AnswersHomework Help9 years agoHow long does surgery for a gunshot wound take? Need info for a story?
I'm writing a fanfiction story where the main character is shot in the back with an exit wound near the navel. They end being hit in the spine and having permanent below-the-waist paralysis and a blood vessel is also hit (causing enough blood loss for everyone to be really worried for a while). How long would surgery take in that case?
Thanks!
2 AnswersMedicine9 years agoQuestion about the mentors in the Hunger Games?
The rule is that the victor has to remain a mentor to the subsequent tributes. But there's only two mentors each year. What happens if, say, District 3 has three living victors and then a tribute from District 3 wins again? Do they alternate who acts as mentor? Are they chosen at random? Or are the older mentors phased out as younger victors arrive?
Thanks!

3 AnswersStandards & Testing9 years agoHow is an overdose on injected medicine different than an overdose on ingested medicine?
I'm an amateur writer. In a story I'm writing, a character tries to commit suicide by overdosing on antipsychotics, but with a twist; this character is a psychiatrist and has access to the drugs in inject-able form, so instead of swallowing pills, they can inject it directly. I know this would make it more likely to be lethal since the body wouldn't be able to throw it back up, but I'd like to know any other changes this causes, I.E. symptoms, treatment, reversibility (I would like it so the character comes close to death but does ultimately survive). Thanks for helping me out!
3 AnswersMedicine9 years agoWhy is WDT shutting my laptop off?

1 AnswerLaptops & Notebooks9 years agoIs my laptop ruined forever?
HELP!
My laptop got a virus on it last night. No biggie, I had it removed within an hour.
But then I noticed another one that just wouldn't go away no matter what program I used.
So I went to bleepingcomputer.com and found a post on the forums with a user who was in the same predicament. I followed the same instructions, which included using ComboFix. I did everything right, and it said it detected a rootkit and had to reboot. So I let it.
But when it got to the login screen, nothing worked! My mouse wouldn't move and none of the keys registered. I restarted again, this time going to safe move. When I am at those screens, the keys work, but once I get to the login screen, no matter what mode I'm in, nothing works.
This is a school-issued laptop and I need it for online school! Am I doomed? Or is there a way to fix this?

4 AnswersLaptops & Notebooks9 years agoNeed help for a story I'm writing?
Long story short, I'm writing a story where someone is kidnapped in New York and they are kept in a secluded area.
The only hard part is, I'm from the complete opposite side of the US- Washington State- and I've never been to NY, so I have no idea where a plausible spot would be.
Could someone more knowledgeable about the area tell me where a plausible hiding spot would be? Very much appreciated- thanks in advance!

I want to know for a fanfiction story I'm writing. In the story, the protagonist has been starved, and they want to figure out exactly how underweight they are.

1 AnswerOther - Health1 decade agoWho do you ship on Law and Order SVU?
I personally ship George Huang and Elliot Stabler. They have a lot of chemistry, ESPECIALLY when you watch BD Wong and Christopher Meloni as Ray Mukada and Chris Keller, respectively, on Oz. They also have a lot of subtext, I.E. Execution, Bound, Coerced, Fault, Debt, Lead, Cage, Charisma, Demons, Raw...
