  • iPhone 4S - when to buy?

    So as you probably know, Apple just unrolled the new IPhone 5. The price of the older version 4S has been slashed to 99. When would be the best time to buy the 4S? Should I wait until the price drops lower or buy it now?

  • 10 lb Shih-Tzu swallowed cooked pork bone, PLEASE HELP.?

    My 2 year old Shih-Tzu swallowed a cooked pork bone, NOT a rib, about an hour ago. She is about ten lbs and the bone, although not particularly sharp, was an 1.5 inches long and .5 inches thick and HARD. I am extremely worried!

    I have read that many dogs digest bones without a problem. However, I have also heard so many things about how cooked bones shatter and can perforate digestive lining. Apparently chicken bones are the worst, closely followed by pork bones.

    She swallowed it whole, but even if there are no sharp edges, I feel that the bone was large enough to obstruct her bowel functions.

    Shih-Tzu seems fine now, she swallowed that bone easily with no choking, and I have fed her some white rice as per internet suggestions. I know the signs that something is wrong (vomiting, white gums, loss of appetite) but how long do I need to watch for? I have heard conflicting answers, ranging from 72 hour danger zone to dogs who have been fine for days then weeks later are affected and then need surgery.

    Should I try to induce vomiting or something? What can I do for her now? She is my first dog, and I am kicking myself for being so careless. Please help!

  • Grammar question about misplaced modifier?

    Here is the sentence: "As a hospital volunteer, my original purpose was to see if I could truly picture a future for myself in healthcare, get my feet wet in other words."

    Is "As a hospital volunteer" a misplaced modifier because it refers to "my original purpose" instead of an actual person?

    If so, please provide an alternate wording of the sentence. Thank you for your time!

    P.S. This is for an essay, in case you were wondering.

  • Machine that lets you listen to CDs without headphones?

    What electronic device can I use to listen to my CDs WITHOUT headphones?

    In other words, NOT including iPods, mp3 players, computer, DVD player on or standard CD player with the headphones.

    I remember I used to have a small radio/CD player thing that had built-in speakers, but I forget what it was called. Not a stereo, I'm pretty sure...

  • PUPPY SWALLOWED LATEX BALLOON!?

    I have a Shihtzu puppy about 5 months old. She just swallowed a small (think infant's head) balloon, no helium. I've called the vet and she said to wait a while and watch for signs of lethargy and lack of appetite. Is there anything I can do, maybe some safe home remedies or additional signs of danger? Or do these sort of things usually just pass through the system?

  • Mass Point Geometry Problems?

    Now, I know nothing about mass point geometry so I'd like an step by step, in-depth explanation of how to answer these questions. I'm pretty sure I'm going to be using ratios somewhere but I'm not certain where and how. If anyone could help, that would be greatly appreciated. Or, you could just tell me the equation or proportion I need to start.

    1. In triangle ABC, point D is a point on BA so that BD:DA = 1:2. E is a point of CB so CE: EB = 1:4. DC and AE intersect at F. Find CF:FD.

    2. In quadrilateral ABCD, points E, F, G, and H are respectively in AB, BC, CD, and DA so that AE: EB = DH:HA=2:1. Point F is the midpoint of BC and CG:GD = 1:4. EG and FH intersect in K. Find HK:KF.
