  • Help me come up with a catchy title for my dissertation?

    I am in the beginning stages of my dissertation. The focus will be on parents' perceptions of cyberbullying. The questionnaire will look at how many rules are in place at home for internet use by elementary and middle school children. How much time are they allowed online? How much supervision? Are they allowed on social networks and if so, are they monitored? As far as you know, has your child been cyberbullied or done the bullying? Are you aware of what cyberbullying is or the laws against bullying? Similar information will be gathered on cyberbullying with cell phones and text messaging. There will also be an option to share personal experiences that may be included in the study.

    The idea is the figure out how far off the parents' perceptions are from the statistics that have already been gathered previously from elementary and middle school students. This will allow for educators and counselors to see where they should focus when providing parents with education on cyberbulling.

    I need a catchy title that I will be able to look at every day for the next year and not get sick of :) Any ideas?

  • Would a Jimmy Buffett concert be appropriate for a 4 1/2 year old?

    We are thinking about taking our little boy to his first concert. Please only answer if you have been to a Jimmy Buffett concert. They are very different that your average concert experience and I only want to hear from people that have done it. This one is in a stadium and we are looking at the sideline seating. I know it isn't appropriate to take a child that small to a rock or metal concert with all the drugs and smoke and pushing and shoving but this is different and I would like an experienced opinion. Thanks!

  • A mortgage question about calculating the total payment.?

    I am getting ready to start looking for a home. I have purchased two in the past, one for $81,000 and the payments were around $800, and the next, the loan was for about $95,000 and the payments are about $900 so I know with houses around 100k you can knock two zero's off the total and get an idea of the payment as a general rule.

    I am trying to figure out what I can afford next and I and I am confused because I have been watching a lot of shows like House Hunters and they are getting approved for $240,000 loans and only ending up with $1800 or so as a mortgage payment. How are they doing this? I am assuming since they are calling it a mortgage payment it is also including their insurance and taxes, right?

    I am just trying to figure out my price range if I can afford to pay $1200-$1400 a month with a $20,000 down payment.

  • Unusual question for someone who just had their baby?

    I am inducing on Sunday afternoon. I preregistered at the hospital yesterday so I am ready to just walk right in and go to my delivery room Sunday.

    Last night someone stole my purse out of my car. It had my checkcards, social security card, health insurance, and drivers license all in it because I took them to preregister.

    Did you need any of these items to leave the hospital with your baby? Should we be ok with just my husband's ID?

  • 10 times an hour, kicking or just moving?

    I am 35 weeks pregnant and I am trying to remember if my doctor told me that I should feel the baby kicking 10 times an hour, or if I should just feel movement 10 times an hour? Which is it? I called yesterday and they never returned my call.

    I am asking because my baby quit kicking Monday evening and never started back up. I can still feel her shifting around in there if I am lying on my back and concentrating, She is definitely moving 10 times an hour but has completely quit kicking and is much less active. She could just be out of room. What do you think?

  • Why do my Dogwood flowers fall off so early?

    We have a gorgeous and enormous dogwood tree that is covered with flowers. For the second year in a row our flowers have only lasted about 2 weeks and are falling off everywhere. I have been looking at all the other dogwoods around town and they all seem to be doing fine. Is there some vitamin we are missing? I don't think it is a soil problem because the dogwoods a couple houses down are fine.

    All I can imagine is that it may have something to do with the age of the tree since it is one of the largest I have seen.

  • PS3 Game Suggestion Please?

    I just bought a PS3 and I don't think it is one that is compatible with PS2 games. I want to go buy a game and need suggestions.

    I really like all the guitar hero type games but am not really interested in one of those right now. I want something more along the lines of Sims or adventure or RPG without a whole lot of aiming and shooting, but I don't mind a little fighting. Are there any civilization type games, or anything like Harvest Moon?

  • Your experience with wireless internet cards?

    I will be spending 8 days in a vacation home with no internet and will need to purchase an internet card and subscription for my laptop. Which company have you had the best experience with? What can I expect to pay for the card and for the monthly fees? Are there usage limits? Is the speed decent? If the price is right I would even consider shutting off my home internet and using the wireless exclusively.

    This is a repost because I only received one answer last time.

  • Do the self employed get the $13/week stimulus pay?

    My mother and father are both self employed with very low incomes and would really benefit from this $13 stimulus thing. She has a hair salon and is only able to be open two days a week. He repairs TVs through house calls. They aren't the type to ask for money so I would like to find out and let them know how they can have access to this.

  • Which statistical test would be most appropriate?

    I have a mock study. The dependent variable would be the number of counseling sessions attended, the independent variables would be transportation (yes or no), ethinicity, employment (no, part time, full time), did you use services provided on campus (yes or no) and attitude towards counseling (ranked 1-10).

    What test would be best to use? This is a longitudinal study. Would I use an ANOVA or some other sort of analysis?

  • Credit Card Settlements and Income Tax Return?

    We got an awesome Christmas bonus in 2008 and ended up settling about $12,000 in credit cards. This was about 13% of our income for 2008. Will we need to include these settlements in our income tax return? If so, will I receive anything in the mail from the credit companies to use on my return?

    I didn't see anything on TaxAct or TurboTax regarding credit card payment.

  • How do company owners benefit from profit sharing?

    This was the first year my husband was included in the company's profit sharing. They give it out as a Christmas bonus and there are at least 50 employees in their architect firm. He is one of the AutoCad drafters, not at the top or bottom of the company. His salary is about $35,000.

    His Christmas bonus from the profit sharing was $28,000 before taxes, $17,222 after. I was so completely shocked, I still am. This nearly doubled his salary...

    How do owners of companies benefit from doing this? I know they had to give other people, like the architects, even more than we got. The partners in this company gave up hundreds of thousands of dollars. What do they get in return?
