Car won't move when turning the wheel - help me diagnose this problem?
You know how when you're in reverse or in drive, your car will usually move a little?
Well when i turn the wheels in my car? The car won't really move. Like I really, really, really have to push on the gas pedal hard in order to make the car move.
Also, whenever I'm turning or the wheels are turned I hear this awful sound-- a little bit like grinding but not that harsh.
Any idea what this could be?
Thanks...
7 AnswersMaintenance & Repairs10 years agoQuestion abotu file-sharing/piracy sites that are shut down?
Why are torrent sites, and link/embed sites like atdhe.net shut down-- but sites like MegaUpload, rapidshare, etc. aren't?
I mean, sites like MegaUpload, rapidshare, filestube seem even more guilty of what these anti-piracy campaigns are accusing torrent sites, atdhe.net of doing.
2 AnswersLaw & Ethics1 decade agoGuys: Do you ever date unattractive women just to score?
Like not fat or ugly-- but just not particularly attractive? Cuz at first I was feeling bad about this-- but the more I thought about it...
The girl probably will enjoy the attention right? I mean so it's probably a win-win for both myself and the unattractive chick?
Am I wrong?
Anyway let me know cuz the girl agreed to go out with me but I'm having second thoughts.

4 AnswersPhilippines1 decade agoHELP hand hurts when boxing, hitting the mitts?
Anybody else had this problem? And how did you fix it?
INFO:
1. It's just my right hand, left is fine.
2. Using 12 ounce Everlast gloves. I'm at 147.
3. The pain is NOT at my knuckles. It's in the middle joints if you know what I mean. Like when I make a fist, those joints hurt.
4. NO wrist pain whatsoever.
5. This problem has built up over time. At first there was no pain. After weeks it started to hurt. Months it hurts like a mother.
6. Hurts most when throwing the right straight.
STUFF I'VE ALREADY TRIED:
1. TECHNIQUE: Trainer (former boxer) says my right straight is good. Went to another trainer at another gym says my technique is fine.
2. Tried TITLE 12 ounce gloves. Hurts a little less, but it still hurts.
3. Tried resting. I didn't box for like a week and a half-- my hand felt fight so went back yesterday. Hand hurt immediately afterwards.
HELP
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

3 AnswersHigher Education (University +)1 decade agoAsking girls on dates in the Philippines-- help me avoid embarrassing myself?
I suck at hitting on chicks and am bad at reading people. I am even worse at hitting on chicks in the Philippines because people here are SO friendly it is hard for me to tell if they're just nice or if they like me.
So let me explain this situation and tell me if I should ask these chicks out.
CHICK 1.- Girl at the clothes store at the mall.
Ok so she's nice to me at the store. Then one time I saw her in the food court passing by me and she smiled at me.
THE PROBLEM: This is the only mall in walking distance for me. If I embarrass myself I won't be able to return to this mall. So is that enough evidence to ask her out? What else can I do to confirm she likes me short of actually asking her out and risking losing my favorite mall / clothing store?
GIRL 2 - Secretary at my Dr. Office
Obviously, if I cannot mess this up. Cuz then I will have to switch doctors or else embarrass myself every time I go to the Dr's.
Basically, I didn't even notice her but after my visit my Mom told me that she seemed like she had a crush on me. Then one time, I didn't even recognize her and she smiled at me. I only realized afterwards it was her.
Then to reschedule my appointment she texted my cellphone. But she was very formal about it calling me sir and stuff.
So again, can I ask her out or is there anything I can do to confirm she likes me?
Thanks.

Like in the US, you just give them dollar bills.
In the Philippines can I give them dollar bills or do they have a hard time exchanging the money?

7 AnswersAir Travel1 decade agoQuestion about apes/monkeys evolution?
I understand evolution takes millions of years, and that a large portion of it is random adaptation.
My question is: Have apes/monkeys evolved significantly in the last...like 250,000 years?
I mean are today's monkeys, in general, smaller than they used to be? Or bigger? Or smarter?
Like I saw on Discovery Channel this monkey was using a stick for something...? Is that a relatively new development or have monkeys been doing that for ages?
2 AnswersBiology1 decade agoCan I hang out in the Philippines by myself or will I get kidnapped?
Staying with relatives but they will be at work and stuff. So can I go out to malls, bars, etc. and just be by myself or will I get mugged and stuff?
What do you think?
If it matters I'll be in Quezon City or whatever.
Also, I like to take pics so can I bring my camera around or will that get stolen?
14 AnswersPhilippines1 decade agoDude I'm such a loner what is wrong with me?
Like I'm around lots of people but I prefer to be with just one person at a time or by myself.
Is that weird?
How can I be more into groups? Like my friends and family love to go out to clubs and crowded places and it's just annoying to me.
Does anyone know how I can start to like those things like everyone else?
Has anyone else been through this?

4 AnswersAir Travel1 decade agoDr. Scholl's inserts in my shoes at the airport? Ok or not ok?
My feet hurt so I want to wear my Dr. Scholl's shoe inserts. However, if I'm going to be mistaken for a terrorist and be hounded or possibly miss my flight-- I will just put up with the pain.
So are they allowed in my shoes at the airport or could it be a problem?
Thank you.
