I have such a bad tooth ache but am allergic to codeine. I took panadol an hour ago and would like to take a stilnox so I can sleep. I am just not sure I can take them together?

I broke my ankle (talar dome fracture) 6 and a half weeks ago. This week I got the all clear to start rehab. I have had my crutches since the beginning and my walking boot since week 2. The doctor said I have 4 more weeks in the boot but he didn't say how long I had to be on crutches? Do I give up the crutches before or after I stop wearing the boot? Any ideas? Anyone else been in the same situation?

Ok so my fiance and I made a deal, for every half kilo I lose I get to go to another theme park in QLD. My weigh in is tomorrow after work... so 29 hours from now and I am still 1.7 away from earning all 5 parks. I looked all over the net to see how I could possibly rig my digital scales but there is nothing out there. So people I am asking for any and all help in getting there.

I would have liked to weigh in before work and breakfast but he will still be in bed. I am willing to try anything just as long as it doesn't endanger my health.

My mother and father in law are coming over for dinner this evening and I found this really great recipe for a pork, choriso and spinach pie. However the rescipe calls for a metal tart tin and all I have is a ceramic pie dish of the same size. The dish does call for the tin to be lined with pastry. Is it going to make a big difference or is there a way to get round it without buying a tin I will probably never use again?

I'm just beginning to plan our engagement party and I was wondering what I can expect to play. We are having 50 guests max. In a small function room above our favorite restaurant for tapas and drinks. I'm guessing maybe 15 dollars a head? What did you do for yours and how much did it set you back? Are there other costs I should factor in other than food and drink? Oh and is ok to make guests pay for there own drinks? Any advice would be great.

Ok this is way out of my league but it's been bugging me since this morning. I am waiting for a delivery that I know it going to be here today. The slip said they would be here some time between 7 am and 7 pm. So I thought pehaps this morning there was a 50/50 chance he would show up this morning. The morning has now been and gone. It is now 2 pm in the afternoon.

So my question is what is the likelihood for the coming hours? And principle and variables should be applied to figure it out?

Thanks for helping me with this conundrum.

Ok this is my first ever vegetable garden and at the moment things have just gone from bad to worse and I have no idea what to do about it. My soil was mostly clay so I conditioned in with mushroom compost and water crystals like suggested and then I planted all my veggies. Less than a week on 3 out of 4 of my crops look to be heading down hill at a rapid rate.

For starter my broccoli plant has little whit bugs all over it and in places small silver patches. There are is what looks like grey eggs on the under side of leaves and its getting more and more wholes by the hour.

My Celery which is at the seeding stage seems to be turning a yellowy colour.

And finally my capsicum/pepper plants are getting holes and look slightly 'cinged' on the tips of my leaves put at this point I cant Identify a pest.

If at all ppossibleI would like to find organic sSolutionsand I am hesitant to put pesticides on plants I intend to eat one day, god willing.

My tomato plant seems to be doing the best of all of them but I am slightly concerned and there is now a great deal of bull ants in my garden and I ddon'tknow why. Please help or my garden may be dead my the weeks end.

Hi everyone.

My partner and I have decided to "stop" not trying for a baby. That is to say we have decided things can just take there course. I'm 24 and his 27 so we don't really think that it will take much time or effort. I like the day dream. My question is this: How many days after conception did it take for you to return a positive test. The test box says 7 to 10 days but the net says it's much more like 10 - 12 days. I was just wondering what your personal experience was... first hand knowledge has to be a lot better than the box or net articles.

I cant believe I am asking this here but I am so completely at my wits end. I have been with my partner 2 years and I love him dearly but I am so frustrated! My partner has a slow sex drive to say the least but doesn't see anything wrong with that. I on the other hand could have sex 4 to 5 times a week happily. But this is really beginning to grate at me. I don't want to leave him or cheat on him. I really just need any helpful advice on how to suppress my sex drive. I really just need helpful advice... no cheating thats out of the question so is counciling cause talking about it only makes him more angry... please help.

Hi guys, I really need your help today. I have an International Relations assignment due tomorrow and I am completely stalled for idea's. It's a 1000 words and the guidelines are:

Drawing on materials distributed via official government sources (hard-copy reports and/or websites) and also regional mass media, highlight three (3) major foreign policy issues for one of the countries that this unit focuses on (China, Japan, Indonesia, North Korea, South Korea, Taiwan, United States).

I have pretty much decided to do China as with the Olympics going on there is a more info out there and there was a good article in the US magazine Foreign Affairs. But the truth is I am finding it really hard to identify 3 major current foreign policy's and I can't seem to find sources that fit the description...Please Help! Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Ok, so I am a correspondent uni student. We are only a week into semester and Im sorta up to date. Right now however I'm tossing up between studies and going to read the twilight series. I hear its really good and last year I put off reading the last harry potter book and never got back round to reading it... I just can't decided between the two... study or read the twilight series?

Ok for the last 3 weeks I have had a really uncomfortable plain from the back of my thigh, to the left of my butt to my lower back. Like most muscle aches I just asumed it would go away but it hasnt. I feel it especially when I sit cross legged on the floor and when I get up I have trouble putting weight on my left leg due to pain. It causes me to limp at times and sometime I stand delebertly with my weight on the right leg to avoid pain. Please anyone with any idea what is going on, what muscle it might be and how to fix it or relieve the pain, any advice would be much apreciated?

I know this sounds silly but I've got to such a point where I dont like me very much. I am a 23 yr old, stay at home girlfriend and full time online uni student. Im over weight and dont like my appearance. I dont study as much as I should and I would hardly consider my self a perfect girlfriend. I know I can be so much more but for the life of me I just cant seem to make myself pull up my socks. Oviously I need to change my life I just dont know how? Any help would be greatly apreciated.

I realised yesterday that it is only an month till my exams. I really am not that up to date with my studys but I would like to do a bit better this year. I was woundering how all you smart people prepare for exams and what kind of timetable you stick too?

It's half past midnight and Mica our purebreed desexed tonkenesse cat is driving us mental! Mica is an indoor cat, the gets fed to much and gets all the love in the world. I work from home so she's never alone. She had a toys from here to kingdom come. We play fetch for hours everyday and still she carry's on! Its getting worse. Occasionally she sleeps in our bed but we had to stop that because when she doesnt want to sleep she paces. We would love to get her a play mate but at the moment in our rental property its just not feasible! Please people have mercy on us and tell me anything I can do to stop this constant noise!

Im a new university student. I am attending a very reputable university by corrispondence and I was just curious how many hours a day and how many days a week you should study in order to get good grades? Since I dont do to lecturers or tutes I was just curious.

I am the one of the worlds worst procrastinators. This year however I vow to be different. I was just wondering how early all you good grade achieving students start before the due date. In my case its normally the day its due.

The week before last my bf and I where having a movie night on the coach. A friend had lent us the incovient truth. We watched it and I think the only coment that was made was, my god, how did bush win against him. But then we went to bed. I dreamt about the drowning polar bears and ice caps. Nothing was done.Then last week my other half was asking me to come watch something, He had tapped the al gore interview in regards to apec. At this point we had a bit of a talk and decided that we wanted a better future especially if we decided to have kids. We are only in our 20s and we rent our house so we arnt very sure now what else we can do to reduce our carbon emissions?

So far we have:

- Bought 'green shopping bags'

- changed our electrisity to hydro and wind

- Changed to energy efficant light globes

- planted and tree each in the back yard.

Any other surgestions would be most aprecated.

I used to be an insomiac and sleep for maybe 5 hours a night. Since I moved in with my partner he can sleep for 12 to 14 hours on the weekend and its a bad habit Ive got into. I would really like to spend more time to send time studing I just need to know how you all stay awake? And how much sleep you really need?

I am so far behind at university. I have 3 over due assignments and another two due in coming weeks. I study by corrispondence so there is no class to go to. With for weeks to exams I just dont know what to do now. I need advice on how I can salvage this semester and pass. I cant find anything on the internet to guide me on how I can turn it round in these few weeks. Please help?!?
