  • Why Can't I Put Contact Lenses In?!!?

    I bought some white out contact lenses but I can't put them in. Despite what everybody says about well don't look at it while putting it in and just put it onto any part of your eye and blink a few times, whatever i try it won't ******* work!! I'm getting really annoyed because whenever i try to put them in, they either fold back and stick to my finger or just won't stick to my eye and would rather stick to my finger or my eyelashes or face or something. Even if they do go in, they just slide onto my eyelashes and end up stuck to my cheek. It's really pissed me off because i feel like i've just wasted money and i'm so annoyed because they just wont go in, i've been trying for days now and it won't work. Why? What can I do?

  • Any Similar Movies Or People That Make Them?

    I really like the sadistic and gory films that Rob Zombie makes and just wondered if there were any similar movies. I've seen all of his and especially liked The Devil's Rejects and House Of 1000 Corpses. Are there any other similar kind of artists that make that kind of music and those kind of films?

  • Posting Invertebrates? Is It Still Allowed?

    You used to be able to post tarantulas and scorpions etc... in the UK via Royal Mail, however, when I was posting a package of games today, she told me that you could no longer send them via post and gave me a booklet of what you can't send. However this is a booklet that says what you can't send internationally and tarantulas couldn't be sent internationally anyway but can you still post them to other places in the UK?

  • Can You Help With My French?

    We have had some questions to answer in french for homework. I have answered them but would like somebody to translate the original english into french in order for me to check that it is correct. Please do not use google translate as it doesn't always translate full sentences properly. So basically can you translate the following into french without google translate. Thanks.

    Normally, I do not like to do much in my spare time as I am very lazy. Sometimes though, I like to go out and play football with my friends because it is more entertaining than watching television all of the time as it can get boring. Despite this, I am not very sporty as I find most sports boring. My favourite sport though is football. My favourite team is (I WILL INSERT A TEAM HERE) because it is my local football team. My favourite player is (I WILL INSERT PLAYER HERE) because he is the best at playing football. I also like to watch and play tennis because it is an interesting sport that I am quite good at. It is also entertaining to watch. Usually, in my spare time I will either watch television, listen to music or go out with my friends and walk around.

    On a normal weekend, I get up later than on weekdays. On saturday, I wake up at 11 am to go shopping for food, clothes and animal supplies. I prefer sunday because I get to have a lie in as I wake up at 2pm because I don't have to do anything. It is more relaxing than other days of the week. When I am not shopping on a weekend, I go out with my friends. Normally we just walk around.

    For example, last weekend my friends and I walked alongside a river because we didnt have anything to do and we are very adventurous. It was better than sitting at home watching television or listening to music because we got to socialise and go out and have fun.

    I no longer have a part-time job. I used to deliver newspapers every morning of the week. I no longer deliver papers though because I quit my job because it was very tiring waking up early every morning and I am extremely lazy. Also, the wages weren't very good as I only earnt £10 per week. Personally, I didn't think that the hard work was worth the amount of money I got paid. It was boring.

    Every week, I get £30 pocket money from my family. I used to get it for doing nothing but now I have to do chores to earn my pocket money. It is not as good as it used to be because it requires hard work and things cost more now. To earn my pocket money, I have to wash the dishes and the clothes. Also, sometimes I have to walk the dogs and iron the clothes. I don't like doing chores. When I get my pocket money, I often spend it on clothes and food. Also, I have a contract phone which costs £36 per month so I have to spend some of my pocket money on my phone. I am one of those people who like to spend money but I need to try and save my money more often so that I can afford more things. I am very interested in reptiles and invertebrates so if I managed to save enough of my pocket money, I would spend it on a pet chameleon. I would also buy even more clothes.

    I am slightly interested in fashion but do not dress extravagantly. I like to wear casual clothes. Normally I like to wear red chinos and black shirts. However, in the summer, I often just wear shorts as they are more comfortable than trousers and shirts as they are cooler in the hot weather. Occasionally, I like to wear skinny jeans which I will normally wear when I go out with my friends at weekends.

    Thanks in advance. If there are any bits you do not know, please try rephrasing them or just state that you do not know or understand it. Also, could you please try and improve it if possible as I would like to get the highest grade possible. Thanks.

  • Can You Help Identify Sex Of My Arachnids?

    I believed that the Mexican Red Knee is a male and the Giant White Knee is a female but I'm not too sure as I am not very good at sexing spiders. Also, the scorpion confused me as it has a small telson (male feature) but it doesn't have a really long tail (female feature) so I couldn't decide whether it was male or female. Thanks for the help anyway.

  • Legal Body Modifications Ages?

    Hi, I'm 15 and already have one 24mm stretched ears and am really into body mods as it is the way i've been brought up. Anyway, i'm really wanting my other ear stretched but would like to have it scalpelled instead of pierce and stretching overtime. Just wondered what the legal age for this was with parental accompaniment. I was also interested in a couple of other body mods so could you please leave me a list of all body modifications and the legal ages with parental consent in the uk. Thanks.

  • Should I Get My Tongue Pierced?

    Right i'm 15 and I was wondering whether I should get my tongue pierced because it's usually something girls and women have done whereas I am not. I wanted to get this done now and get my tongue split when I am older (I love body mods as you can probably tell from my 24mm stretched ears and 6mm stretched septum). Please no criticising or judgeful comments, I just want to know your opinion on lads getting their tongues pierced for body mod interests and purposes and if you think it's okay.

    c.Identify two items of information that the audience members would need to provide so that Steve can correctly identify the requested song (Would it be Artist/Singer and Song Title)

    Steve is worried that paper-based form is not the most suitable method for data capture in a club.

    d.Explain one possible disadvantage caused by using a paper-based form to capture the information Steve needs

    Steve is aware that many of his audience members have smartphones.

    e.Describe two ways, other than voice calls, that Steve could use to enable his audience to request songs using smartphones

  • What Does This Skin Condition Look Like?

    This is going to be quite a long story as it has been going on a while. I have eczema and a nut allergy and hayfever and asthma as far as we know. Anyway, a while ago, a small rash developed on the base of my back. I thought it was just because it was a sweaty area or something. Anyway this went away after a few days but later appeared all over my body. We went to the doctors and she originally said it was scabies and gave us some pemethrin cream to apply twice in a two week period over night and wash it off in the morning. This had absolutely no effect. So we went back to another doctor. She didn't really know what it was but said it looked like that it was infected so she gave me some flucloxacillin antibiotics and some cetirizine hydrochloride antihistemines which had no effect also. So we booked another appointment at the doctors but couldn't get in for ages so went to a walk-in clinic where he just gave me some Aveeno cream to help regain moisture as my skin was and still is very dry. This didn't get rid of it anyway so we went to our doctors who gave us some fucibet cream and some more cetirizine hydrochloride. The fucibet cream seemed to be minimising the condition but not completely getting rid of it. So we went back and she gave us some more fucibet cream along with some flucloxacillin antibiotics and some doublebase gel moisturiser. The fucibet cream continued to improve it but we have now run out and don't have another doctors appointment for ages. She has booked us an appointment at a dermatoligist but nobody so far has been able to correctly diagnose it. Personally, I thought it was a form of dermatitis but I don't know. Does anybody know what this could be and what could help it as it is really itchy and really embarrassing when it comes to getting changed for PE at school. We have thought of everything it could have been. I recently started collecting tarantulas which I first thought it was but I moved them out of my room so I ahd no contact with them and it continued. I thought it could have been perfumed shower gels so I used simple shower gel and now only use non-perfumed soap for sensitive skin. I thought it could have been bed bugs so we got rid of my bed, thoroughly cleaned my room and got a new bed. We did change washing powder a while before so we changed back. All of this had no effect. Please help. I have included some photos below.

  • Would This Change The Temperament?

    Hey, I want to get a Singapore Blue Tarantula (Lampropelma Violaceopes). The only thing that's stopping me is their temperament as they are semi-aggressive. I have however, seen some Singapore Blue Slings (2cm) and wondered: Are Aggressive Tarantulas aggressive as spiderlings? Also, if not, if I got one and handled it a lot, do you think that it would become a bit more docile and handleable throughout it's juvenile and adult life as well?

    All over, my body just doesn't stop itching. I have asthma and eczema that I didn't really control very well because it didn't really affect me before. However, now I can't stop scratching and it is actually leaving spots all over my body and when I scratch, it just makes them bleed again. I also, have very dry skin on my face. Ever since this has started, I have been using both diprobase and hydrocortisone cream on my body and face generously. It has been having no effect though, it hasn't cleared up and I'm still itching. When we contacted our GP, she just said to continue using the cream. It is having no effect. Please help me. What is it and what can I do about it?
