Hey everyone. My laptop's screen broke recently, but the way it broke was a little strange, and before I go buying a new screen, I wanted to see if anyone thought the screen was replaceable or if the damage goes deeper.

So the way the screen broke was that the hinge broke off on the screen's end(Picture 1). Eventually, the corner of the plastic thing bordering the screen popped out a little(Picture 2). Then one day I tried to close the screen and something around the hinge area resisted, making a cracking sound. Immediately, a thick black line that looked like a crack but was on the image on the screen, not the screen itself, appeared. Over time, the "crack" started spreading and eventually the entire monitor blacked out, and now it permanently looks like it's turned off. The physical screen itself is perfectly smooth with no problems.

So what do you guys think? If I buy a screen and get a computer store to replace it, will the problem be fixed? Or is the screen itself not the problem? For the time being, let's ignore the price of the screen and repair, I want to see if it's possible first.

So I have an unknown bacterial culture that is known to be a gram negative bacillus that does not form endospores and does not respond to the negative stain. From this data, I've narrowed the identity of this bacteria to:

Serratia marcescens

Serratia rubidaea

Providencia stuartii

Pseudomonas stutzeri

The last piece of data that I have is that the bacterial culture was red in color after incubation at both 30 and 37 degrees celcius. This leads me to think this is S. marcescens, but I believe S. marcescens only turns red at 30 degrees. However, the incubation was done by my partner, who is fairly unreliable. Am I right in this, or is it one of the other bacteria species?

Hey, so I'm a relatively small guy, and I want to start lifting weights. However, I don't want to get huge, I just want to get lean and trim. Is there any way to go about this, like calorie deficits, or do I have to bulk first and then cut? Basically, how can I get lean and muscular without getting overly big, which would look weird on me since I'm so short?

Hey there,

So I have the defaults set for all of my battery options on my HP Pavilion dm4 laptop. But out of nowhere, without changing anything, my computer stopped doing the low battery actions seemingly overnight. I used to get a notification saying I had 12% battery left, then a popup saying I had 9% left, then the computer would hibernate. Now, nothing happens until the computer just runs out of power. When I try to turn it back on after plugging it in, everything's gone, I get the message about turning off the computer incorrectly, and I have to start up the computer all over again. My settings are these(Same for battery and plugged in):

Low Battery: 12%

Low Battery Notification: On

Low Battery Action: Do Nothing

Reserve Battery Level: 9%

Critical Battery Level: 7%

Critical Battery Action: Hibernate

I can't think of a single thing that could've made the sudden overnight change. Any help?

Hey everyone, it's about time I replace my '98 Civic, and I really want to buy a car that's going to support our economy. However, I know absolutely nothing about cars, and I keep coming across conflicting information, so I need a few things cleared up.

Supposedly, some companies like Honda are made in America, so purchasing a Honda will help support job security, but will I be helping more by buying a "truly" American car?

If so, then does anyone know what American-owned makes there currently are? I tried looking them up, but I keep coming across ones that have gone under. I definitely don't want to purchase a GM or Chrysler because I don't support government bailouts, so do I have any other options?

Thanks for any help.

Hey everyone, I recently lost my iPod Nano(4th gen), and am thinking of upgrading to an iPod Touch. My mind's almost made up, but I have 2 questions:

1) I bought a cable that goes into my car's cigarette lighter and connects to my iPod Nano. It connects through the USB port. Will it connect to the iPod Touch? In other words, do the iPod Nano 4th gen and the newest iPod Touch have the same USB port?

2) A friend told me that his car could play his iPod Nano just fine, but when he switched to the iPod Touch, it was incompatible with the car. Now, this happened years ago, so his Nano was probably the 2nd generation, and his new iPod Touch was probably 1st or 2nd generation. My car itself is old, but the radio is only 4 or 5 years old. Is it a common occurance for nano-compatible accessories to not work on touches? Or am I going to have to buy yet another cable for my car?

I have the newest Firefox update(The one where you can pin tabs and all the menus are combined into the Firefox tab in the top-left).

I accidentally told Firefox to not remember my username and password for a website, and now I want to switch it to remember my credentials. I tried going into Options->Security->Passwords, and when I click "exceptions", the desired website(of which I am absolutely sure I accidentally told it to not remember my password) did not show up. The Saved Passwords button doesn't show the website, either. Can someone help? Thanks

Hey everyone, I booted up my laptop this morning and quickly realized that Ctrl+C isn't working. I first noticed it in excel, but it doesn't work on Firefox, Word, anything.

I can still copy from the right-click menu. Ctrl+V, Ctrl+Z, and Ctrl+X are working fine on every program I've tried, it's just Ctrl+C. I should mention that I had no problems last night, and when I turned on my computer, I didn't notice any "Windows is Installing" screen or something, although I easily could have missed it since I was doing other things while waiting for the computer to boot up.

I'm technologically illiterate, so feel free to ask for more details if you need them.
