These are probably stupid questions but I don't know anyone who has a DVR so I thought I'd come here to ask about it. We are thinking of getting a DVR service so we can quit the VHS taping merry-go-round, etc. Before I sign up, though, I'd like to know something about it from someone who's not trying to sell it to me! I understand that basically you can put in the name of a show you want it to record, and any time that show is aired it will record. Is that correct? So ...

Hi all, I have some questions regarding a (possible) UTI. I have looked on WebMD and other sites as well to get some info regarding my symptoms and think I may have one. I obviously plan on calling my doctor/going to urgent care Monday if I get worse. Anyway, I took a bubble bath on Wed. Started having irritation on Thurs. Thought it was from the bubble bath as that can happen. Woke up Friday nauseated, peeing alot (once every hour at least), darker yellow urine (also take a B complex and it m ...

I am starting to look at houses (first time for me). For people who own their own homes, what kinds of questions do you ask. What are things you look at when you do house hunting. I can look at the places and know whether it will suit us, but unsure if there are specific things I should be asking or looking at. Wanted to get some opinons. ...

Does anyone have any suggestions to make this easier? I am perimenopausal and I'm having terrible headaches each month. I am also having trouble sleeping. The mood swings are so bad that I can't even stand myself!! What can I try to lessen these symptoms? I am trying to find something natural that won't cause too many side effects. ...

Is his wife allowed to speak in public? I have never heard her say a word. the second question is will Willard forbid the Mormons from posthumously baptizing Jewish people into Mormon faith when he is president? Seems like that might irk some people in NY, FL and Oklahoma. ...

1) If this bill is so wonderful, then why have Obama and Pelosi resorted to bribes, threats, and arm-twisting to get the votes? The "compassionate" Demonrats should be falling all over themselves to support it. (This one's rheotorical; their actions speak for themselves.) 2) If this bill is so great, why don't members of Congress volunteer to be the guinea pigs so we can all see how it works? (ANSWER: Because the "elites" [political class ...

I am writing this with the full knowledge of my dear friend who just discovered about a month ago she has HPV. I told her I would ask other MTs who might have a little information about this. First of all, she is telling me she does not fully understand her physician, language barrier there and when asking questions she was told she was exaggerating the issue! She is a person who is very involved in her church yet I doubt she has been able to talk with someone there, very embarrassed about her s ...

I know I questioned before about inguinal hernias but I have to help someone after an open inguinal hernia under MAC and I am wondering what to expect as far as getting them home from the surgicenter and how long they will be incapacitated or whatever I am to look for. Thanks. ...

Subject: Obama needs to answer a few of this questions ... just a few ! . .This was written by somone who voted for Obama. She must be unhappy about something if she decided to check into his background??? ================================= Lotsa unanswered questions, Jr. Maybe someone on our list can help answer them. I doubt it tho because a lot of politicians that have more to gain than us sure as hell have not been able to touch this guy's progress. SOMETHING TELLS ME WE HAVE BEEN ...

Hi all. I'm having a D and C with NovaSure ablation this week due to very prolonged DUB. I was wondering from those who have had this have you had good results? Did your periods stop completely or are they lessened like they say? Also, afterwards, was there much cramping or discharge/bleeding? Any comments good or bad appreciated. I am just looking forward to getting some relief from my problems. Thanks so much! ...

I have recently been inquiring about a new career in MT. I learned of this website and have been reading feverishly to become as informed as possible. My question is this (which is one, of many!): Is it flexible enough to do on a basis around a first and primary job that requires travel. On the days that I'm home (which could be for 2-5 days in a row before traveling again) I would have all day dedicated to sitting at the computer and getting work done. This i ...

I've had it with ours. We don't get full copies of our filings back and he never files until the very last day if we owe taxes. He e-files through some company. Yesterday, I received a letter from the IRS that WE DIDN'T FILE FOR 2009! We certainly did but we can't remember how much we had to pay the IRS, if any. We do have checks for local and state taxes paid last year, but not federal. All I get his answering machine when I called (twice). I don't want to call the IRS ...

Do any of you use an adjustable keyboard tray? If so, which one would you recommend or not recommend? ...

I didn’t want the answers buried because the original post is pretty far down the page. You don't HAVE to take the compensatory option. You volunteer for it. If you want your OT paid in cash the week you work it, then so be it. You said: "One other thing I'm not finding or maybe it's there and I don't understand the legal jargon: Is the OT that is converted into PTO time and a half? Do I get a half hour extra for every hour of OT?" Yes, that&# ...

I posted earflier about how my local cable TV/internet/telephone company started blocking TV channels unless you rent a "box" from them. I lost my temper and broke my bundle. I cancelled TV and phone, ordered Direct TV, moved my phone # to a tracfone, and left internet intact because it's fast and high quality. It turns out that Direct TV couldn't get a "line of sight" to their satellite and so couldn't install. I called Dish Network, and they're supposed t ...

Years ago I loved to make bread and have several favorite recipes. I'm going to give up and get a bread maker. I see they come with recipes, but I cannot tell if you can use your own recipes in them. Does anyone have any experience with this. One of my favorites is a receipe for Pioneer Bread which uses some corn meal. It is not heavy like rye, which I understand does not work well in machines. Any advice on this would be appreciated. I am becoming alarmed ab ...

Been visiting many different sites regarding perimenopause. That is what I have. While I don't have all the systems I do have 95% of them (luckily no hot flashes or night sweats though). What really is getting to me is urinary incontinence. It doesn't matter how much I try and hold it until I can make it to the bathroom, it doesn't work. Been looking up what vitamins I should be taking to help control some of the symptoms (not going to go on rx meds) ...

Does anyone own a toaster oven. Our oven broke and is cheaper to buy a toaster oven than fix ours. The only thing we really cook in the oven is small stuff (roast a chicken, cookies, brownies, melt cheese on our sandwiches and things like that). No huge turkeys or whatever. So I'm looking at toaster ovens, at least a 6 slice toaster. Does anyone have any recommendations or ones to stay away from. We went to target and some were flimsy. We are looking at ...

I will be married 32 years next month and never seriously considered divorcing my husband although in the past we did talk about it a couple times during rough times. I thought we came through everything and had a stable and successful marriage. However, my husband has interests I don't share, such as drinking, partying, poker, hanging out with his friends, etc. Over time I came to accept and expect that and just figured he had a bit of a Peter Pan syndrome where he never ...

1) I had a GAU evaluation (for general assistance in WA state) earlier this year and am now up for an ABD eval. (Aged, Blind, and Disabled assistance). The GAU examiner seemed to want to tank the exam and I found she lied in the report with respect to the ortho portion. I'm planning a letter to DSHS, her clinic's Director, and possibly the State Board. I had a later eval. at another clinic by a doctor who found a source of my ortho problem and thinks I need an MRI; also, I ...

I have the same questions. http://voices.kansascity.com/node/7499"...To much of the country, Tea Party supporters look like a bunch of whiners -- over taxes, health care, the federal government, America's future.So that's why it's important for the people attending the ongoing Tea Party convention in Nashville to establish a more positive direction for their fledgling movement.With Sarah Palin as a keynote speaker on Saturday, it's obvious this group won't be coming out ...

We have been in chapter 13 for a year. Our payment keeps going up. However, I found some interesting information from the IRS for expense list that my lawyer did not include in our expenses and we have for expenses. Has anyone dealt with this? If so, what could you include in expenses? Did your lawyer include these expenses later? Sorry to sound stupid, but just trying to get some help. Believe me, we did not want to file but had no option. ...

Want a photo with her too? Cough up another $10,000, kid. Wow. "Hi, Mrs. Clinton. How are you?" "I'm fine - wait...was that a question?? FORK OVER THE GREENBACKS, YOU LITTLE RUGRAT!!" ...

Hi, Just wondering if anyone can give me a bit of info (since I have much better luck on message boards than I do trying to go directly to any source). ; ) To the point, I had not been to a doctor in several years. I recently went to a gynecologist (was actually a NP) and then she referred me on to an IM doc. They both ignored what I really wanted to focus on (hormones - perimenopausal and a slew of what I discovered to be thyroid symptoms I had been having for 12 years or so).&nbs ...

I would love to raise some chickens but DH is against it. He hates them, says they're ugly, doesn't like eating chicken, and hates those "slimy eggs," hasn't eaten one in over 50 years, but I'm the opposite. Do you think I can convince him to let me raise a few? A few questions are: 1. How many chickens do you have? 2. If you live in northern states, do you insulate your coop to keep your chickens warm? 3. How many eggs per week do you get? 4 ...

Do you children (maybe around 4 years old) cry a lot? We have a neighbor who has a little girl and she is always crying - and I mean always. I don't think we've ever heard longer than a half hour without her crying. She's playing with other kids and she cries, she's in the swimming pool and she's crying, eating crying, etc, etc. Since I never had kids or friends who had kids I don't know if this is normal. Just was curious. ...

with Bernie Sanders. Sanders' answer to everything was single payer, single payer, single payer (translation, taxpayer). I saw about 10 minutes of it. I was quite surprised to see a lady from Texas allowed to ask Bern questions about Obamacare screwing her family’s coverage and her business. Bernie gave his usual socialist lines. Cruz was great. Ted was his usual strong, polished. well prepared self, but Bernie was no slouch. He actually admitted the Democrat Party is owned by ...

It's great that Hillary Clinton has asked the State Department to release her official emails. Still, belated disclosure isn't going to make the story go away; it doesn't deal with questions about why Clinton decided to proceed in this seemingly secretive direction despite government regulations that at the very least required she take steps to ensure the emails were duly transferred to official logs. Following is a list of questions that I think are reasonable to ask Clinton to ...

I have a very dear friend of nearly 40 years and I have not one thing negative to say about her except that she asks what I think are inappropriate questions. For example, without fail, she will always ask the price of a big ticket item. She doesn't broadcast the news, she just wants to know for whatever reason. I am getting together with her soon and know she will ask the price of something BIG that I bought. She has no idea how long I saved and what I sacrificed to do this. Does anyone ha ...
