Need advice on how to wean my 14 month old from nursing to sleep.?

This is only becoming an issue because I can not slip my boob out anymore without her waking up and throwing a fit..she is now waking up to nurse all through the night(she is getting her molars)..I have tried laying next to her rubbing her back but she only gets pissed. I need some advice..she is my first.Need advice on how to wean my 14 month old from nursing to sleep.?
good luck.Need advice on how to wean my 14 month old from nursing to sleep.?
Yeah, just let her scream it out. She'll get so tired that she falls back asleep. You could try numbing her gums right before you put her in bed with a teething ring or whatever they use now. You might also want to give her a baby aspirin.
I think it's called ferberizing or something, but this guy says you have to let them basically cry themselves to sleep. Wait about 15 minutes, then go in there to show her that you haven't forgotten about her, but don't pick her up. Keep doing this until she gets the idea that she just needs to go to sleep. I started this with my son at 4 months and he sleeps through the night and takes naps whenever I tell him to now. Good luck!

Any advice on how to be a more laid back person?

Ever since the 8th grade (when I lost my best guyfriend) I've been.. I guess you could say ';getting back at the world'; by being very intimidating, and just mean. Most people have said it doesn't bother them because it's just how I've been, it's who I am. But I really don't want to be defined by this anymore. I've been noticing it's getting on people's nerves more, especially mine. Anyone with advice on how I can be more laid back and just.. chill? Thanks.Any advice on how to be a more laid back person?

I was like that in my teen years.





I was able to relax and enjoy life when figured out how to like myself and be comfortable in my own skin. I finally realized that people out there want to like you and be a friend, but you have to let that guard down and let the in.

My ipod touch has been showing the apple logo and then it shows the recovery mode picture.





It all started when i jailbroke my ipod touchMy 2nd generation ipod touch is stuck on the apple logo and i cant use it any advice on how to fix it?
Try restoring it in iTunes. If it doesn't show up in iTunes, then set it into dfu mode. You do this by holding the power and home buttons for 5 seconds, and then letting go of the power button while still holding the home button. Hold the home button until you hear the computer detect it.My 2nd generation ipod touch is stuck on the apple logo and i cant use it any advice on how to fix it?

    it causes her to vomit. Anything holistic is preferable.Can someone please help me. i need any advice on how I can get my adult cat to stop eating kitty litter.?
    Yuck! My cat does the same thing when she finds litter she has tracked out onto the carpet. 'Yesterdays News' (litter made from recycled newspaper) she'll just eat straight out of the tray, it's disgusting!





    For my cat, I tricked her. I took a few pieces of clean litter from the bag and sprayed them with 'Chew Guard' and then sprinkled it outside her litter box after vacuuming up the other stuff. A few days of attempting to eat the awful tasting stuff (I don't understand how litter isn't awful tasting as it is, but that's a cat for you!) she decided it wasn't worth it anymore and stopped altogether.





    Good luck!Can someone please help me. i need any advice on how I can get my adult cat to stop eating kitty litter.?
    bribe her with cut up vegtable soups
    It could be fatal also. See you vet for ideas. You could change your type cat liter and her/his food.
    I don't think it is good idea to not let the parent eats the litter, except that you regularly clean the litter yourself... :)


    So, clean it before the adult cat eat it then...
    Eating litter is not a behavior problem, but rather, a medical problem. It is caused by Anemia. When a cat starts to eat litter is is usually because they are Anemic. You need to take your cat to the vet soon, as the Anemia is usually pretty advanced by the time they are eating litter. My Tigger is 'slighty' anemic and has never eaten litter, it is usually when the blood count is very low, the eating litter comes into play. The tests you really NEED to have done are: A CBC (Complete Blood Count), and a Blood Work Panel, which will measure the organ functions. Usually Anemia is caused by another disease, like Chronic Kidney Disease. You will need to find out how bad the Anemia is, and find out the cause of it.





    Eating Litter/Licking Concrete





    This is known as pica. Many vets are not aware that this can be a symptom of anemia, but it is surprisingly common, so if a CRF cat suddenly starts eating litter, PCV or HCT levels (anemia measurement) should always be tested. Thomas was already being treated for anemia when he began to eat his litter. Sure enough, when we tested him, his anemia had worsened, so we increased his medication and as soon as his anemia improved his litter eating stopped.





    The source for this information is below.





    Hth, and please contact me if you would like more information, I know about Anemia groups on the internet, and would be glad to share the information with you.
    I wonder if she's eating it because she has some kind of mineral deficiency or a sour stomach.





    When our body lacks a mineral, it drives us (animals too) to consume weird things. I knew a pregnant woman who was driven to pick at bricks and eat it. Turns out she was iron deficient and the bricks have a lot of red iron in them. Strange, huh!





    Also, eating clay and charcoal is a way to settle a stomach. Perhaps she has a tender tummy?





    Try a new food maybe. Ask the vet... perhaps they've seen this before.

    I have a RWD '97 Ford Aerostar - any advice on how to drive it in the snow?

    I took it out once, without extra weight in the back, and it was baaaaaaaad...I assume I should weigh it down with sandbags, etc. - how much weight should I add to make a difference? Any other winter driving advice for this vehicle would be helpful as well...I have a RWD '97 Ford Aerostar - any advice on how to drive it in the snow?
    decent winter tires help. Weight in the back--I used to carry sand in my Mustang, was weight for traction and if I needed it, I could throw some under the wheels on the ice.


    Other wise, just remember to take the weather into consideration in winter-as in any other season.I have a RWD '97 Ford Aerostar - any advice on how to drive it in the snow?
    low gear, snow tires , sand in the trunk......there are a ton of things...and what everyone here said was good. But one more thing. Take turns very....very....VERY .... SLOW. becuase with rear wheel drive. you already get an understeer. but the front tires normally stay gripped on the road. In the snow howeer you can be turning you wheels and turning but at the same time your car will just be pushing forword and the front tires and you wont have really any steering.
    very good answers, also, drive in 2nd gear, it is almost the correct ratio for engine revolutions to rear tire revolutions, it will give you a better feel so the rear tires don't get away from you..
    First thing you should do is be real careful, - Snow and ice have very little traction available for your tires! Yes a little extra weight on rear of vehicle will help a lot! Weight increases ability to get traction, as now the rear end is heaver than the front end, -- it is hard to push vehicle foreward with less traction than the ';load it is pushing!'; The more weight you add, the better traction you get on ';takeoff';! But of course there is a limit to this ';good thing'; just as with others, - you don't want to get so much that it ';overloads'; the rear of vehicle';, -- you will get great traction all-right, - but it will be hard to control on the road! I would reccomend in the neighborhood of 5-600 pounds (I assume this is a 1/2 ton van).





    As for driving, there is a certian amount of ';feel'; you will acquire with experience! A good rule of thumb is to start out slower, and then increase speed occasionally, -till you lfeel like it is handling ';sloppy'; (sort of like feeling when you have real low pressure in a tire) - it tends to sort of ';roll'; one way or the other while you are tring to go in streight line! This is just about where you are going to ';loose it'; if you decelerate or try to stop suddnely!. In about 40 years of ';snow experience';, - I have found out that about 35mph on unplowed roads is probably fast enugh, -you need to have enough speed starting up hills that you don't need to add a lot of power to keep going up, -- if it starts to slip or spin, just ease up slightly on gas, and keep going. So many people drive about 20, - and then as they start going up hill, they put the ';pedal to the metal'; to keep it going, -- bad idea, it just spins out and goes in the ditch! Don't be decieved by ';plowed roads';, sometimes they are much more dangerous than ones with snow, - since snow does give some amount of traction. Here lots of people think they can now drive 50-60- like usual, - this may work fine till they come to a corner, (or somebody driving ';safe speed';), - when they hit the brakes, - that is all there is to it!--- Also you can't see ice sometimes!


    And of course accelerate slowly but steadily, and start slowing down way before you have to stop (sometimes there is no choice of course), - if skidding,- try to ';recover'; by truning in direction towards skid, till you revcover control, - they try again to get going where you want to (ton't try to turn very much to ';get back fast';)! If this doesn't work, then try to steer it into something ';soft and cheap';!





    Carrying sand is a good idea (a bucket full ashes is an even better idea), -since you can use sand or ashes to get going if you are ';stuck'; on ice! And of course ';chains work'; sometimes when even regular 4-wheel drive can't ';cut it';! I would practice putting them on several times in farily good conditons! Laying in snow, ice (and water is not a good place to be learning how)!





    Best way to get acquiainted with your car is to go to an ';empty'; parking lot, and experiament a little to see how it handles on snow!
    A pair of good studded snow tires,300 lbs of sand bags across the rear Axle.remember automatic transmissions always put power to the rear wheels even when your foot is off the accelerator.When rear breaks loose,foot off the gas,shift into neutral,steer the way of slide to gain control.Once the front wheels are again in line with the rear,back into drive.Its a great save over black ice.

    Advice or tips on how to grow healthy hair after shaving it bald?

    im 17 and im female. in dec. 2006 i put fusion extentions on my hair and it pulled my hair out in spots. so i am going to shave it all bald this summer. {i plan on buying a nice wig or something}





    is there any websites or any advice or tips on what i should do to make my hair grow back healthy...? vitamins, shampoos and conditioners, treatments to my scalp?Advice or tips on how to grow healthy hair after shaving it bald?
    I don't know about web sites for this, but I do know what has helped my hair to grow in stronger and faster. Pick an excellent over the counter ';high potency'; multivitamin and spend a bit of extra money on some folic acid vitamins. Take your vitamins everyday (in doses recommended only). Eat a healthy, balanced diet, and avoid any starvation diets. Massage your scalp daily, or brush it twice a day with a baby brush for a good 15 minutes. Also, avoid blowing your new hair growth with a blow dryer or using irons or heat tools on it. In addition, buy a salon grade shampoo and conditioner to keep your scalp healthy. I like Matrix Volume Therapy, but their Hydra-therapy line is excellent as well. Good luck on your re-growth!





    P.S. I forgot, try to avoid wearing wigs or hats unless absolutley necessary. They can inhibit circulation to the scalp and slow growth. They also can increase the destruction to the new ';baby hairs,'; so only use the wigs when necessary.Advice or tips on how to grow healthy hair after shaving it bald?
    i know this sounds funny but using a prenatal pill will help,,,, but be careful tho... (im sure you know what i mean by this) also too dont wash it every day do that every other to ensure the natural oils arent getting washed out of your hair.. also too never hot wax your hair that causes more breakage and frizziness...





    i have also known mane and tail shampoo to grow hair fast but it can also damage hair as well if used too often...





    also if you switch between two shampoos it helps remove build up that makes hair unhealthy





    also if you leave a lil conditioner in your hair after you rinse some you protect and moisturize your hair deeply...





    also when your bald put baby lotion on your head to keep your scalp healthy.





    and try to keep alot of moisture of your head with the wig...





    hope this helps some :)

    Please give me any advice in how to become an awesome yugioh player and please don't send me your non-sense?

    If you do not have anything productive to say to me then do not say anything at all to me, this is to no avail for you; otherwise feel free to let me know what you think or what is on your mind.Please give me any advice in how to become an awesome yugioh player and please don't send me your non-sense?
    you can never be the best at yugioh, you can win the world championships, but come the next ban list, you can lose a crushing defeat to a beginning player who happened to run a deck more geared to the new format, and figured out new tricks before you, so here's the best three things you can ever do





    1. research and read articles and forums like tcgplayer, pojo, metagame, and my site will have a good bit more to offer if my writing team will ever get off their lazy asses





    2. duel as many people as often as possible and go through your collection to find cards that can break the game that other people might not know about and find new ways to play the game, the best way to test theories is to duel, duel duel, and while youre dueling, check out for other cards you may not be familiar with, and figure out how you could use them to your advantage (i recently re-discovered instant fusion which is a great fodder generator, which can seriously lay a beating in and on many decks)





    3. HAVE FUN! a lot of people skip over this when they give advice to other people, do you think donovan mcnabb played football all of his life because, even though there was a 97% chance he wouldnt make it into the pro's, it paid good? no, he played all of his life hoping to be pro, but he got into football, and played football because he had fun doing it, sure there was a lot of hard work involved, but if you need to work hard, it's probably worth it, so if you put in your work above in this game, and always have fun instead of being business 100% of the time, you'll make it to a consistent level of play, and will probably be fairly successful in this game. good luck!Please give me any advice in how to become an awesome yugioh player and please don't send me your non-sense?
    ahhhh.....learn to be the best at the game?
    Practice and research. Know the rules and tricks of the game.


    Read articles on Metagame.com. Post and respond in the POJO forum. Take the tournament organizers test. Net deck the top shonen jump decks and then tweek them for your area metagame. Play test, play test. Enter tournaments and stay in them even when your loosing, just so you can work out ideas on your deck.
    what i do is when ever i lose to a normal deck(monarch) i try to remember why i lost. iif there is a reason, i take out the cards or put in new cards. if i play a not normal deck(remove or demise or burn) i side the cards i need and figure out the cards i would side out for them ... hope that helps! :-)

    pratice


    rearsch


    duel 4 fun


    duel 4 real


    exchange deck idea's
    Just try and first of all have a deck that works well with one another. Once you have a deck you are happy with just be sure to make the most out of every card you have. A lot of times you will see a lot of players use up to many cards just to get a free hit on you, then they spend the rest of the duel playing behind. Also it matters in the order you set cards and when you choose to activate them. For example i had two cyber dragons and snipe hunter in my hand. I also had scapegoat face down, and i activated it without thinking, this just messed me all up. I now could not summon my cyber dragon, and putting out snipe was now not an option. So be sure to think of what will happen for each card you play. Also don't be in a rush to go right for the kill, of course if you can attack go for it, but don't go putting all your monster out in an attempt to kill the other player in one turn. I all to often see players summon a cyber dragon, then another monster, then the use call of the haunted only to have me turn over mirror force when they attack. And now they have used up 4 cards for nothing. Also try and think what the other player is trying to do to you as well, when he is just setting trap and magic cards, is he going to play torrential tribute, or when he sets all his magic and trap cards, then he sets 1 card he might have morphing jar. So getting the best out of your cards, and using them at the right time is the key to win, but just sometimes the other guys deck matches up better against you, and some of it is just drawing the right cards first. good luck
    Its hard to be an awesome player at yugioh. It takes lots of time and experience. All the updates in the game evry few months make the game interesting. Its all about having the better deck made to deal damage to the lifepoints with no drawbacks and very little defense against and the counter-strategies which can be interchangable in your own deck Ie: a side deck. its hard to keep up, but the feeling of being great is what we strive for.


    invest in what you know what will work in a deck and try to defend against evry trick and combo playable in most mainstream decks because thats all u need to worry about. hope some of these statements prove useful cuz thats what i think. ^_^

    It depends on how long you have had the pimple. If you have had it for more than a week then I suggest telling your parents that you would like to see a dermatologist. More than likely it is just a pimple, but a dermatologist would be able to tell you if it was something more.


    In the meantime, try using hot, wet compresses on it (washcloth is good) to see if it will come to a head. If that works, then you can lance it and release the infection so that it can start to heal. If it doesn't work, then a dermatologist may be the only way to go.I have a pimple that itches and wont go away any advice on how to make it disappear?
    If it is a pimple you have than it is most likely caused by bacteria. On the web go to a .com site named notaquitter and get some silver cream. Silver is an all natural antibacterial agent and will clear oit up quickly. It really is the best kept secret in acne treatment. In fact, please tell your friends when you see how well it works. They ship worlsd wide and quickly and I have sent many people to the site for something that works really well and does not cost much at all
    OH NOES MY PIMPLE WILL RUIN MY SOCIAL LIFE!
    Are you ABSOLUTELY SURE that it is a 'pimple' and not a 'bug bite' with a small white head? Try not using ANY soap on your face, but scrub only with 'hot water' and rinse three times with 'cooler water' each time (the third time it should be COLD water ... then get some CamphoPhenique and put a 'cotton swab' into it and 'dab that' onto the 'pimple' and get 'enough on' so that you have covered ALL the 'redness' ... if it's a pimple, the 'no soap washing' will take care of it ... if it's a 'bug bite' the Campho-Phenique (applied when itchy) will help you to 'dry it out' faster, and heal a bit more quickly.

    okayy, hun be thankful yo have curly hair, but you dont know how to take care of it. it alllll starts in the shawer. do you use condtionar? if not, go to wal-mart and buy some sunsilk captivating curls conditionar. and some shampoo, but it doesnt matter what kind of shampoo you use.





    okayy, when ur in the shower, wash only the roots of ur hair. then let the water rinse it out, dont touch ur hair while it is rinsing, next put a lot of condtionar in you hand, but not to much. spread that around in ur hand, and put it in ur hair as if you are putting in a low ponytail, then use the excess conditionar an massge that into ur roots. then let it soak into ur hair while you finish ur shower. when you rinse it out, DONT touch it at all, let the water rinse it out. now, once you are out of the shower, and ur hair is soaking wet, take a towel, and scrunch the excess water out of ur hair. then go to ur room, and take some gel, and put some in ur palm, and spread it around ur hand, then scrunch ur hair with it, both side and then the back. then put some more gel in ur hand, and do the op and the side agian of ur hair. after that, take some hair spray, i use aussi sprunch spray, to do this, spray ir hair all over top bottem sides back, all around ur hair, and scrunch some more. DONT BRUSH YOUR HAIR!! you wont need to if you use conditionar. let ur hair dry and style it, like put ur bangs up or to the side, or let them down, or put some of ur hair in some bobby pins, or a barret. well if you have any more questions on this, just ask me:)My hair is puffy, curly, frizzy, and just plain ugly. I need advice on how to make it look good.?
    You're kind of limiting your options if you refuse to straighten or curl it. I don't know how you feel about perms, but you can get a large curl perm, or wavy perm to tame your hair with less daily maintenance, if that's what you're opposed to.
    lol

  • How seriously should I take the advice not to use conventional masonry bits with an SDS drill.?

    My drill comes with a chuck that appears to allow hammer action so I could use a standard bit. I know the extra hammer force of SDS drills exceeds what normal masonry bits are designed for but for shallower holes (drilling into but not through breeze block is what I'm planning) I don't see any reason to spend money on an SDS bit. Or is this a BAD IDEA??


    Thanks everyone.How seriously should I take the advice not to use conventional masonry bits with an SDS drill.?
    Bad idea you will damage your chuck and shatter the end off of the bit SDS bits only cost a few pounds and will last for a long time drilling breeze blocks you shoud only use the chuck for non SDS work.How seriously should I take the advice not to use conventional masonry bits with an SDS drill.?
    SDS bits are a special type of quick release bit that can only be used with the matching SDS chuck. These are normally found on the more professional end of the tool market. However you can by adaptor chucks to convert standard ( staight shank bits ) to sds and visa versa .


    I would recommend a good quality bit which ever way you choose to go.


    I find drilling pilot holes, when drilling into breeze block, prevents the drill wandering off line and ending up with a hole too large or off line.
    The 2 systems are not compatible. The standard masonry bit will fit a hammer drill, while the SDS fit that chuck. The SDS will give a harder impact to the bit and it will basically destroy the masonry bit. Go rent a rotohammer for the project and be done with it.
    A standard bit in a chuck will work on hammer,but if you want to look after your chuck dont do it too many times,as prolonged use like this will damage the internal workings of the chuck.


    If its small holes your drilling (5.5/6mm) then drill bit only a couple of quid %26amp; are much better,so just buy one.
    I know what you mean, I have a drill that comes with it too.


    I'd have no problem at all using one, but I still wouldn't. An SDS drill bit is excellent, it's just so quick to change and you don't have to worry about using allen keys/hex keys.


    For the amount extra your paying, it's worth buying the SDS bit.
    You can switch off the hammer action can't you?


    For ';drilling into but not through breeze block';


    hammer action is not a good idea anyway.
    A chuck on an sds drill is designed not to hammer in hammer mode as it will destroy the chuck.

    Should we ask advice of Steve Jobs how to containing health care costs?

    I think that he might know the secret. After all as health insurance premiums surge 10% a year, at the same time the price of iPhones plunged five-fold from $499 tp $99.Should we ask advice of Steve Jobs how to containing health care costs?
    The private sector has a better job than what liberals like Obama and Pelosi think their job is. And they are successful at it. I think that would be like asking an IT supervisor to take a job emtpying septic tanks.





    Obama is a wannabe Jospeph Stalin. So he is becoming a wannabe Steve Jobs by trying to takeover more and more of the private sector for the percieved benefit of helping blacks.Should we ask advice of Steve Jobs how to containing health care costs?
    Perhaps but a more pertinent question is how much is Apple paying for its employees' health insurance coverage and how fast has that risen in the past few years. One industry model may or may not translate well to another industry. Health care reform could have the same effect of lowering prices due to increased participation in affordable plans.
    The reason the cost of the iPhone has dropped is just like the real estate market. Everyone claimed that they were worth the $499 even though they were only worth $99. The consumers refused to continue to pay the ridiculous sum any longer. With the demand falling off, the price was forced to come in-line with the cost.
    Economy of scale. The more iphones you make the cheaper they become.





    So his solution would be to put everybody in the US in the same health insurance.





    Not exactly the answer you were looking for, is it?
    He's great at marketing, and every computer in my house including this one is a Mac, I love apple, but I don't wanna entrust the business of the congress to him at the same time :).
    So maybe we should apply the liberal California corporate model to national health care. Steve Jobs is a huge hippie by the way.

    Advice on how to quit smoking while pregnant?

    I know it's not healthy for me and the baby and everytime I smoke I think about what harm I could be causing, but I just can't kick this damn habit. I desperatly want to, but it's so hard. Any advice or personal expeirences would be greatly appreciated!





    --Please no nasty answers I know it's bad!Advice on how to quit smoking while pregnant?
    Write down your reasons for quitting. Look at the list when you are tempted to smoke.


    Choose a “quit day.” On that day, throw away all your cigarettes, lighters and ashtrays. You can do it, you are a strong woman and mother. Best of luck to you!Advice on how to quit smoking while pregnant?
    Just think of your baby inhaling this smoke along with over 2,000 other chemicals..the baby is developing..go to www.whyquit.com and you wont want to smoke..Good luck..I used to smoke..I quit best thing I ever did..and didnt smoke when pregnant..I had no guilt that way and really felt great!! Good luck and email me if you need more help..
    My name is Donna and Im still struggling a little myself but I wanted to share something with you that has help me cut down A LOT. I dont want to scare you but think about the fact that every time you light a cigarette its just like grabbing a hold of your baby's cord and squeezing it, preventing him or her to get oxygen. When I read that I cried. I dont know anything about you or your religion but I pray when I start to crave one and ask him to take the craving and it helps. Keep mind why you dont want to smoke and try to remember that its only 9 to 10 months. I will continue to pray about this habit and keep will be keeping you and your baby in my mind when I do.
    I would never be nasty, but you have to not be selfish now because you have a new life growing within you who deserves a healthy start to life. Just stop. Plain and simple. Just don't have another one. At all. Over and over just think of your baby, and you'll be proud you made such a sacrifice. I hope you have stopped drinking, and all drugs.
    quit!quit!quit! juz quit! but its hard though.. good luck on your pregnancy
    I understand where you are coming from. I hope you can find a support system to help you out. If you smoke a lot, your doctor may give you the patch to wean you off. If you smoke less, they might just reccommend classes.





    While I understand the backlash against smokers, and while I know it isn't good for the baby, I wish people would better educate themselves about what cigarrette smoking has been proven to cause....not what they believe it causes.





    Alcohol is the worst thing to ingest while pregnant. It is worse than heroine, crack, meth etc. It causes mental retardation and physical deformation. Cigarrettes can cause low birth weight and occasionally premature labor....not good things, but not the worst either.





    I'll get flamed for this, but I suggest you cut back as much as possible, that is what my doctor told me to do, and that is what I'm doing. I don't drink, I eat well, I've gained 23 lbs. and have 3 1/2 months to go, and the baby is measuring right on schedule. I was unable to fully quit with my last child, but I was smoking only 2 cigarrettes a day. She was 7 lbs at birth and is now a healthy and wonderful 12 year old.





    I wish you the best of luck and hope that you are able to quit completely; but if you can't seem to quite get there, don't beat yourself up...just cut back a LOT and eat right. Stressing out isn't good for the baby either.





    Again, best of luck....from one struggling smoker to another.
    You need to talk to your doctor because the withdrawal from smoking is a violent process for the body. That is why people shake, get mood swings etc.. Anyways, would it work if you looked up all the scary side effects? Could you be scared enough to quit? My case was different, my husband told me that when I wanted to have a baby I had to quit but you're already passed that......... Hopefully the guilt will eat at you and you'll quit. Good luck.
    try eating carrots and celery sticks or try chewwing gum if you like the holding part of cigs try holding a pencil good luck
    Nicole,





    Try really hard to consider the baby you're carrying.. I mean you want to make sure your baby is healthy and you don't want to be the reason he/she isn't. I'm sure its going to hard to kick your habit, however, its not just about you anymore and once you realize that important fact you will be on the path of becoming a great mother.





    Congratulation on your new bundle of joy!!!
    You need to redirect your efforts....even if the best you can do is replace the habit with something else, do that. You are not in control of your body if you cannot quit smoking. You cannot want to be a slave to such a nasty thing...and your child will see that....talke to yourself, seek help from your doctor or midwife. You could be doing such harm to your little one.





    I wish you the world, dear one.
    GET SOME HELP THEN DUMMY !!! Get hold of your doctor, or contact the American Lung Association, United Way, La Leche, ANYONE. BUT DON'T YOU EVER LIGHT UP AGAIN !!!





    At least, you are depriving your body and the baby's of oxygen. At worst, you know what that is - killing you and the baby.





    YOU HAVE A LIFE - NOW KEEP IT !!! good luck
    I am having the same problem but I have tried to vision how bad it is for the baby, everytime I light up I think of what toxins are going to my baby and it makes me put it out. Gum helps or celery. I have cut back alot and it is very hard but it will get easier. Good Luck!
    How I stopped was...I started chewing gum, I refrained from being around others who smoked, and when I did smoke I broke my cigarette to the point that it only had about 2-4 puffs on it. I also thought a lot about the harm it could do to the baby, and that smoking increases the chances of miscarriage. It worked, and I quit within a week and a half.
    You must stop immediately. Cold Turkey. That's the only safe way.
    just think about all the toxins you are puting into your child.
    You are really going to have to go off cigarettes cold turkey.
    I am really trying not to be nasty. Its just that it ticks me off so much.





    Try to be unselfish for 9 months. Its the least you can do for a lil baby completely dependent on you.The poor baby has no choice. You do. Imagine how a miscarriage would devastate you.





    I honestly dont know how people can light up when they know how bad its for their baby.
    As soon as I found out I was pregnant I threw the pack of cigs away and never touched them again. It takes a lot of willpower, but you just have to get rid of them, you can't smoke what you don't have. Also imagine your unborn baby struggling with the smoke. If you need support, contact me amanda_cormaci@yahoo.com I will help
    OK, one of the first signs to me that I was pregnant is that the thought of having a cig. made me want to puke ( for that fact so did everything at that point)But when I had quit before hand (I know , I know I'm a repeat offender) I used lots of chewing gum (sugarless), Ice, carrots, as well as biting my nails (i don't really suggest this one). Stand fast determination will help you kick the butt. Good luck :)

    Advice on how to help my friend?

    My best friend (my ex-boyfriend, just giving u history),is going to have to put his dog down on monday.His dog has cancer and they dont have the money to operate on it and she is 12 years old so it would be kinda a waste if shell only live another couple years.Hes so upset about it becuase he raised her and she is his little shadow.Ive already told him its better this way because she is really sick , her stomach is so bloated and she is having a hard time breathing and moving.What can i do to help him ?What can i do to make him not so upset?


    Thanks for the help.Advice on how to help my friend?
    You are doing and saying all the right things. He is hurting and needs someone to talk to so just be there for him. A pet is as much a part of your family as some of your relatives so it is a very painful experience to lose one, you should just continue to be supportive and confirming that it is better that the dog is no longer going to be suffering and that he is being very unselfish in putting her needs first. Her quality of life would be awful and he would hurt more to see her suffer.Advice on how to help my friend?
    Just be there for him as a friend. That in intself is worth alot.
    I went through this two yreas ago with my cat of 14 yrs he died of cancer out of no where he looked sick I took him to the vet he gave him less than a week to live so I just had him put down to end his pain .really all you can do is be there for him just keep reminding him he is doing the right thing maybe help him to have memoral service even if he leaves th dogs body there,and if his grieving seems to go on to long do not say things like shouldn't you be over this by now some people said that crap to me it just made me feel stupid and even more sad.
    you should tell him he's doing the right thing and its the best thing to do in that situation


    and maybe buy him a new dog
    I had to go put my cat down last summer: August 26th. It was really difficult as well because she had cancer all over her body and she was my shadow as well. No one really did anything to help me. But I wish someone would have shown a little sympathy and would have shown that they cared more than they did. All you can really do is just show your friend that you care about them and are there if they want to talk about it.
    Ask his parents for some photos, and make him a scrapbook of his dog. Just be there for him, in case he needs someone to talk to. This will sound weird but, try not to bring up, or avoid the subject (I don't know if that's amkes sense anywhere but my mind).

    Advice on how to relieve stress?

    I know the general ';take deep breaths'; and workout and i do both. But recently on top of college i've had my friends decide i'm no longer worthy of their presence. This has caused me to feel stressed pretty much everyday, even when i wake up in a great mood. Any ideas on how to relieve stress/ get myself in a better mood when in my dorm room. Anything that works for you?Advice on how to relieve stress?
    I've found that doing things with my hands that force me to 'focus' relieve a good deal of stress, if not long term than temporarily. Knitting, painting, writing, playing an instrument, etc. are some examples of activities that can really put your mind at ease and cause you to really concentrate on the task at hand and not much else.





    You said you workout - how often, and what type of workout? I am curious because yoga a few times a week can be a huge stress reliever for some people. If you have enough space and a video you can do that in your dorm room.





    Also, I feel more in control of my body and less tense when I'm eating more heath-consciously. Not saying to eat salads every meal, but to be more aware of what you eat and how it can affect your mood. If you feel physically better you're more likely to feel better mentally as well. Here's a good resource for some examples of those 'good' types of foods and snacks. http://www.livestrong.com/health-article/good-mood-foods-you-know-you-want-to-read-this_21d753d9-ff95-4e97-17ff-25154fd00433/





    Lastly, I know this sounds old fashioned, but a little bit of shut-eye - a nap - can relieve some stress; although, if you're overly stressed and can't doze off this won't work.Advice on how to relieve stress?
    sk8boardin, no joke...


    when you get mad you just chuck it around, acting cool, you'll feel great. Anything but cuttin yourself and smoking, trust me that doesnt help....
    Stress treatments appear in section 42 at ezy build, below. Light to moderate daily exercise helps fight stress. For some people, it helps to visualise a quiet, relaxing scene (imagine, as vividly as you can, that you are on a tropical beach, reclining comfortably; you luxuriate, as the the sun warms you, and a gentle breeze caresses your skin lightly, inhaling the tangy, sea scented, salt laden spray from the sparkling, translucent, aqua waves, crashing on the white, coral beach sand, and feeling the hot sand slip through your fingers in one hand, sipping your favorite drink with the other; all the while, the seagulls call, swoop and cavort playfully overhead in a cloudless, azure sky: you feel just like one of them, free to soar and cartwheel, or just glide in the moist, heavy air, and that this moment will last forever ... ).





    You may wish to consider the following options: http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/meditat鈥?/a> %26amp; http://www.healthjourneys.com/free_audio鈥?/a> %26amp; http://www.meditainment.com/free-meditat鈥?/a> %26amp; http://www.freehypnosistreatment.com/hyp鈥?/a> Relaxation Hypnosis %26amp; http://www.meditainment.com/stress-buste鈥?/a> Consumption of 4 Omega 3 fish oil supplements, daily; (certified free of mercury) it is best if consumed with an antioxidant, such as an orange, or its FRESHLY SQUEEZED juice. If vitamin E is added, it should be certified as being 100% from natural sources, or it may be synthetic: avoid it. The supplement DHEA is thought to counter the stress hormone, Cortisol. Ginseng %26amp; Lady's Slipper are recommended herbal remedies. Practice daily, of one of the relaxation techniques in section 11; whichever works best for you, but the mindfulness breathing for 15 - 20 mns is ideal, although the progressive muscle relaxation can be learned quickly, and takes only several minutes, if pressed for time.

At www.amazon.com/ there are: ';sounds of the ocean';, %26amp; ';ambient rain sound';, %26amp; ';mountain river sounds'; via the searchbar.





    You could repeat: ';I feel calm'; and/or ';I can handle this.'; , or employ the EFT version for use in public, for which you can reasonably claim that you have a headache, as you massage/tap your temples, but it may be advisable to restrict yourself to subvocalising (saying it to yourself, in your mind, not aloud). Section 53, and pages 2, 2.q and 2.o refer. ';Even though I sometimes suffer from stress, I deeply and completely accept myself';. A variant of EMDR: Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing therapy, which has been used successfully for those people suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, insomnia, and anxiety, is shown in section 42, on page i, at http://www.ezy-build.net.nz/~shaneris RECOVERING FROM REJECTION %26amp; 7 SECRETS OF BEING POPULAR are in section 9.


    I have found that the 2 - 3 minutes spent using the EMDR markedly reduces distractions to the relaxation process, and is well worthwhile. You can also multitask, using the gazing technique, as you walk/jog or exercise, by focusing on a distant object, or just focus awareness on how each step feels, noting any thoughts which flash across your mind, without pursuing any particular train of thought, just gently redirect your focus to the task at hand.

    Please, i need advice on how to go about my debt?

    Hi!I have my credit card up to a limit, and no money to pay it back, i ve received a letter from the bank because they didnt receive a payment. But i have no money to pay it back, i dont have any insurance, i am self employed with very little coming in, i have a child and live in Republic of Ireland, i never been irresponsible, but i truly have no money to pay, i am only on part time job.Is there anything i can do about it?Please, i need advice on how to go about my debt?
    Get in contact with MABS, they will help you come to an arrangement with your debtors, you will probably get black listed but if you can not manage to keep your business afloat its not the end of the world.There are supports here in Ireland for when you get into trouble.MABS give advice for situations like yours and are confidential. You are not unique unfortunately, work is scarce on the ground. If you do get black listed it only lasts 5 years but by the time you are back on your feet it will be almost over, good luck.Please, i need advice on how to go about my debt?
    Firstly phone your bank and explain the situation you are in, you will not be the first caller, and certainly wont be the last. They will have set policy and guidelines etc on how to handle the debt you have with them.





    If that fails there are debt consultancy agency's that you can get help from, they sit downwith you and dicuss you income and outgoings and then they contact your bank/s, credit card company's and say to them that you can only afford to pay say 拢10 a month. And the debt consultancy agrees that with them.





    The worst thing that you can do is worry,after all you have a child to look after. Dont worry yourself, you are not alone! The majority of the world is in a recession at the moment, and seriously hundreds and thousands are in your position!





    Take care.
    I am not sure if its the same in ireland but if you have a citezens advice beareau or consumer cresit counselling then speak to them also speak to your credit card company tell them that your are experiencing financial hardship and explain your situation they may come to some sort of agreement with you...to out thinsg in to perspective it is very unlikely that anything will come of having a credit card debt other than alot of charges letters and phonecalls.....but it is best that you make some sort of arranngement with them before this happens...
    I've been in situations like this. Most responsible lenders will try and work out a deal for you to pay X amount back per month depending on your income. I would call them up and tell them your situation. Also, i'm not 100% if you have citizens advice bureau in Ireland but thats always a good place to start. Hope this helps.
    Sorry i probably cannot help you, but just wanted to say to spock that he needs to watch the news, it s not so easy to get a job...
    only thing you can do is find a job like the rest of us, sorry

    MY cat just had kittens tonight i am excited but nervous can you give me advice on how to treat her ?

    I moved her from under my little girls bed. I put her in her own room becuase I have another cat and he seems aggressive right now. They ar feeding and seem happy she is very tiredMY cat just had kittens tonight i am excited but nervous can you give me advice on how to treat her ?
    Animals have natural instincts on how to care for and feed their young. The best thing you can do is give them their space and let them do their thing. Don't be surprised if she tries to move the kittens back under the bed when she is rested, because cats like to keep their kittens where the afterbirth was. Gross, I know - but very true. Keep the food and water close so she doesn't have to go far from the babies to get it. If she leaves the room or the area of the kittens, don't worry. It just means she needs a break from nursing for a while. The kittens will be fine. One of the posters above was right about feeding her kitten food for the calories. She will need it while nursing and it is good for the kittens with the extra nutrients.MY cat just had kittens tonight i am excited but nervous can you give me advice on how to treat her ?
    congrats make sure they have water and watch them whenever u can.hope u have fun with the little kittens : ) good luck.
    give her food and water net to her and some space to have privacy
    Make sure she has clean fresh bedding and I would suggest that you move her food and water closer to the ';nursery.';


    Congrats, you're a grandparent!
    I would sit quietly beside her and talk gently. If she allows you to rub her, do that. See if she allows you to stroke the babies. They need to get used to people, and she needs to know that you won't hurt them.
    Leave her alone!!!! she will be just fine! She will let you know if she needs anything. Do keep the door shut to the room, because she may try to move them where she wants them. Keep food and water available for her. Good luck!
    It is probably a very good idea to keep the male separated from the mother and the kittens. I have posted a link that should give you good information on your newborn kittens and the mother. Just follow the links contained therein. There is a good section on caring for the mother and kittens.





    The mother cat will need additional nutrition, and feeding her kitten food is often advised, as it is high in calories.
    Make sure she doesnt suffocate them by sitting on them. That happened to my cats babies twice. Just watch them when you can...





    Have Fun!
    Treat her nice you see when my cat had kitties i pet her all of the time i told her that she was a nice and beautiful kitty

  • Any advice or tips on how to prepare for the GREs?

    So I'm taking the GRE exam this year. I've already been practicing with books (the Kaplan books seems to be more helpful than the Princeton Review in my opinion). I wanted to know if anyone out there who has already taken the exams and got a good score had any tips on how to be well prepared.Also, is the exam anything like the problems they show you in the books?? I want to make sure so I'm not wasting my time.





    I'd love any kind of advice. Thank you!Any advice or tips on how to prepare for the GREs?
    1) Don't start preparing earlier than 6 month, you'll get exhaused if you study too much, or forget what you've done in the beginning if you study not enough. Giving yourself more than 6 months is not efficient.





    2) Give yourself at least 2 months though, less is not enough.





    3) Start with books - they are useful. Yes, they are pretty much like the real exam. You don't have to buy them, they are available in libraries.





    4) Register early - each registered person gets a free DVD with 2 computer test! So you can use it for preparations!





    5) Try to find Kaplan's computer test collection on the Internet. That's not a study course, just a program which generates tests for you exactly like the real one. I was able to find it for free 3 years ago. Maybe still available. VERY useful.





    6) Start with doing tests withou timing, and do 1 or 2. Ideally you should be able to do everything if no time limit. Then start timimg yourself.

    You can sign a contract to sell oil in America at any price and delivery you want. You will want to provide the buyer with some identification of the oil properties (degrees API and sulfur content for example) so that the buyer can research an appropriate price.





    Knowing the quantity would help. Is this a one-time deal of ten or twenty barrels, or a well that produces 2000 barrels a day?

    I just turned 18 and I need some help/advice on how to get a loan?

    I've been with wells fargo for a year now and they just gave me a new account since I'm 18. With the account they gave me a $1000 credit line and I never applied for one. i also have $1000 down payment for the loan . And i want to take the loan for $8500 for a car. Is there any advice you can give me?I just turned 18 and I need some help/advice on how to get a loan?
    My advice is not to use a co-signer, as it could lead to problems later on. Next, consider your income. If the desired loan amount is $7500 ($8500-$1000) you will almost certainly obtain the loan from wellsfargo if this represents less than 20% of your annual income. Finally, go sit with a wellsfargo loan services representative at a local wellsfargo and describe in detail the need for the loan. If you dress business casually you will almost certainly get what you want.I just turned 18 and I need some help/advice on how to get a loan?
    It is a rule of thumb to pursue an auto loan that is no more than 20% of you annual income. For example: For a $7500 loan you should make $37500/year. ($7500/$37500) = 0.2 * 100 = 20%


    Of course if you sit down with a representative and detail your need for the loan you can get by with a lower income

    Report Abuse



    If you have never had a loan on anything, you will probably have to have a co-signer to get started for a car loan. This is somebody that will agree to make the payments if you default on the loan. Usually, parents will sign to help their child get started on a very small loan. After that, you start to build your credit rating and then you can apply for a car loan.





    Some dealers do have companies that will finance you but you will have a huge interest rate to pay. Watch carefully if you decide to try this option. Make sure they reveal what the total price for the vehicle will be including interest.





    Investigate that credit line with Wells Fargo before you start to use it. If you didn't ask for it and you had no previous credit, there are probably a lot of hidden charges involved including high interest. Close that line of credit out if it is not practical for you to use it. Yes, even if you have not used it, it still shows as available credit and can affect your credit rating. You still have to write to them and tell them you are not interested in that line of credit.





    The best advice is, know what you are signing. Take someone with you that knows a little bit about credit. It is very difficult to understand all the charges involved in a loan in today's world.

    Hi,can anyone give me advice on how to stop my one year old dog peeing inside?

    He has regualr access to outside,but still pees on a few particular items. is there anyway I can stop this? He willuse paper at night but also the side of my leather lounge.HELPHi,can anyone give me advice on how to stop my one year old dog peeing inside?
    First you have to eliminate the smell of urine from those areas he frequents. Dogs have excellent sense of smell and can continue to smell the urine long after you.





    There are several products on the market that work, but the key is to go all the way to the bottom source, such as the padding in carpet. I found that spraying vinegar on those areas after removing the odor also helped prevent my dog from returning to those areas.Hi,can anyone give me advice on how to stop my one year old dog peeing inside?
    Give him a good brisk 45 minute walk every day. Spray the side of your leather lounger with some white vinegar, and use white vinegar to clean up whenever he pees in a bad place. Yeah, your house will smell like vinegar, but it is better than pee, and will discourage him from peeing there. If you don't watch him close, he will just find another spot to pee. Keep him with you all the time, or lock him in a kennel when you can't pay attention to what he is doing. Neuter him, if you haven't yet.
    Yea, if he pees on the floor and stuff like that, first of all, rub his nose in it, then swat him on the *** a few times then put him outside for a while, continue this for a while then he will learn! that's the only way dogs learn not to potty in the house! Then don't give him anything to drink just before bed!
    No more papers... this encourages the floors as a pee spot. Start with this, at a year old they are not to be peeing in the house nor needing a paper to excuse the laziness from not wanting to ask to go outside. The couch, well, from my experience, he is spoiled and knows he can get away with it. Show him who is boss and what is not tolerated. Every time he pees on the floor, take him to it, point him at it, (not the nose in the pee thing) Show him the pee, tell him BAD repeatedly. Then escort him to your bathroom and shut the door. If he did not 'finish' his job, do this and then put him outside on a chain for about an hour ignore his asking to come in for a little while.


    Also at night time, make him sleep in the bathroom with the door shut. Also when you go away too. It could be a jealousy thing if he is doing it while you are gone.
    Give him a girlfriend!!!
    hi, my puppy did that but i got into the habit of taking him outside regularly and rewarding the dog when it had done its business, you can stroke him cuddle him give him a biscuit. there are many ways of rewarding a dog. hope this helps
    The best thing to do is to just take him out regularly and get him used to using the bathroom outside. Also try using pee pads they work for some but not all dogs. When he uses the bathroom where you don't want him to make sure to punish him accordingly an he will learn. Just give him time.
    kick his ***,put him out.every time he messes up.its your fault,not his

    Any advice on how to lose weight after pregnancy but still breast feeding?

    I put on 35Kgs yes 35 when I got pregnant ( due to giving up smoking and love of cheese )





    now I have given birthday 7 weeks ago - I have lost 20Kgs


    but need something to lose the next 15Kgs


    any advice - I know I must still eat ';good'; food as I am breastfeeding but I still want to lose weight.


    help!!!Any advice on how to lose weight after pregnancy but still breast feeding?
    Congratulations to you. My grandson is 8 weeks old and my daughter is the same as you. My advice to her and to you is to Get out with the baby in the pram and go for a walk every day. Swimming is also good if you can get some one to look after the baby for a hour





    it will do you good and also the baby if he/she is wrapped upAny advice on how to lose weight after pregnancy but still breast feeding?
    i lost my baby weight by just breastfeeding and going for a walk each day. no dieting, i eat 3 big meals a day, plus a big fruit smoothie. breastfeeding did almost all the work! x
    Breastfeeding will help you lose weight naturally!





    Just try to eat well, fruit and veg and not too many fattening foods. You need good nutrition when you are breastfeeding.





    Just remember that you need on average an extra 500-1000 calories per day (depending on how active you are) when you are breastfeeding.
    Weight Watchers has a plan for breastfeeding moms!
    Your not giving yourself much time,it can take 12 months to get your body shape back ,just eat healthy no junk food and as soon as baby starts crawling you will be run off your feet the weight will fall off.
    breastfeeding works wonders to get your stomach toned, plus helps you lose weight, keep breastfeeding for as long as you can, and do some form of exercise!
    Join a gym and if you're at home, dont snack.

    I'm auditioning for my yearly try out a my dance company. Any advice on how to wow the ';judges';? DOS OR DONTS?

    A professional New York dancer is helping to hold the auditions and I want to really impress her and maybe get moved up in the ranks of my dance company. I really want some advice..... PLEASE?I'm auditioning for my yearly try out a my dance company. Any advice on how to wow the ';judges';? DOS OR DONTS?
    don't be too over confident but just make sure they know you have a nice personality when you see them smile and say thank you for seeing me at the end so they get a good feel for you as a person so when they see you dance they will be totally blown away good luck hope it goes wellI'm auditioning for my yearly try out a my dance company. Any advice on how to wow the ';judges';? DOS OR DONTS?
    Do...


    Wear a smile always, and don't forget to floss and brush your teeth prior


    Wear revealing outfit, better if it showed your ****


    Pet your cat/dog/whatever pet you have, kiss its temple and caress its abdomen, that is for good luck


    Make sure you underarms sweat, that will give you a ton of energy





    Don't...


    Surf the net, it will strain your eyes


    Eat breakfast, it will make you huge


    Slash your wrist, it will make you unable to drive


    Comb your hair, messy hair will give you the dancer look which the judges love





    Good luck!
    I'm a high school freshman now and i am on my high school dance team. At auditions, make sure you NEVER complain. Do what the coach says, even if you hate it. Next, SMILE! Coaches are more likely to notice you if you are smiling. Last, STAND OUT. Do something to put yourself above everyone else. For example, if the coach says that at the end of the dance you are performing freestyle for 30 seconds, make the most of it. Be creative and the coach will notice. For a good example of standing out leading to success, see america's next top model cycle 10 the first episode. Allison stood out and she was the first to make it to the top 14.
    Make sure you know your moves and don't lose timing, pick an outfit that stands out, makes you look good and that you feel really comfortable in. Look confident and make loads of eye contact, smile lots too. good luck!
    Move confidently, keep a little smile on your face, make eye contact sometimes, if you mess up than blend it in like you really meant to do that! and, good luck!
    Always smile. A smile can cover up a million mistakes because the judges don't what you are going to do. :)
    eff off
    do smile


    do have fun


    stand up tall

    An army recruiter is coming to my home today and I don't know what to do or how to act? Any advice?

    What should I wear? The house is pretty neat and clean. I don't know what to do. I think I have to take some form of test. My husband is at work and furious that the recruiter is coming.An army recruiter is coming to my home today and I don't know what to do or how to act? Any advice?
    Just be yourself and ask God to help you not be nervous.


    Thank you for wanting to help defend my freedom!An army recruiter is coming to my home today and I don't know what to do or how to act? Any advice?
    Dress up in a suite, and when he gets here, use your manors, and show respect. I've been on recruiting like that, they had already signed in, I just had to give them a pyhsical, they wanted it done in there home. I rember him, he had an attuide, and when he got to basic, he was in my unit (go figure) his DI gave him a hell of a hard time. And I saw him my office a lot during those 3 mounths.
    I really think your husband should be present when the recruiter comes to talk to you, whatever decision you make will affect his life too so it should be a joint decision.
    Keep this in mind when you are talking to ANY RECRUITER...





    YOU are interviewing HIM. This is your life you're talking about. Ask every single question you can think of. Ask personal questions about how the military has affected his relationships and ask how he feels about the president and the upcoming election. Get a feel for who the guy really is.


    You also may want to get a second opinion from a different recruiter.





    If your husband doesn't want you to join, DON'T EVEN THINKG ABOUT IT. This will change his life as much as it changes yours.





    Even if you tell the recruiter that you are ready to join, you will have plenty of opportunities to change you mind between now and basic.
    Whatever you want. You don't need to impress the recruiter the recruiter needs to impress you.
    Act like you normally would. He's the one trying to recruit you, not the other way around.
    relax and be casual. good point made by a fellow mp, he is there to impress you, not the other way around.
    Do not answer the doorbell.


    Your husband will respect and love you even more for a wise decision.
    Just so you know, he is there to try impress you and show you all of the 'wonderful' reasons why you should join the Army. You are interviewing him... not the other way around. If you don't have that mind set in your head then maybe you should schedule this meeting for another day until you do or you are not going to receive as many benefits as you could should you decide to sign a contract. Of, course, you may want to come off as a generally ';together'; person with a somewhat tidy house, etc. However, what you are wearing means nothing on your ASVAB which is the test that determines which jobs you are eligible for. Just keep in mind that your best interest should be what matters most to you, not whether you look good for the recruiter. Also, any test he gives you at your apartment won't count for anything. It's most likely a practice ASVAB. Joining the military is sometimes difficult for a spouse to agree on but after you speak with the recruiter then let your husband speak with him, too. If its something you really want to do, it will benefit you and him. Ask him to at least review the facts. Good luck!
    You don't need to take a test at your house, the recruiter will set it up for you to take the ASVAB test at your local MEPS station. As for getting ready, just relax and be casual. You can help yourself by having your birth certificate, diploma and all other supporting paperwork he'll need.
    The only thing that matters to them is educational and physical requirements. Appearance matters not.
    just be yourself and be respectful. it is just an Army recruiter, when my recruiter came to my house it was good times, but i aint army
    Deshane,





    Good question - and I think the others gave you great info.





    Also, I would have everything he might ask for ready - high school diploma, college records if any, Social Security card, birth certificate, drivers license, marriage certificate, etc. He will need to see all those, if you haven't showed them to him before.





    But, like the others said, he needs to impress you. Dress casual, and have strong coffee ready.





    BTW - the divorce rate in the military is not 80%, it actually mirrors the civilian divorce rate. My last command was in the submarine community and it had a very low divorce rate.





    Thank you for your future service - if you go in.





    ';Ranger';
    Don't worry, he's there to help you. Just be yourself.
    ASK HIM FOR THE NEAREST AIRFORCE RECRUITER!!!!!


    it will be the smartest thing you will ever do.
    You really should think about re-scheduling the appointment so your husband should be there. Just be who you are.


    No offense to any recruiters out there, but, recruiters are notorious for making promises. YOU NEED TO UNDERSTAND, HE CAN'T GUARANTEE ANYTHING. The Needs of the Army will determine your career field and anything else to do with your stay in the service.
    First, you should reschedule the appointment so that your Husband can be there too - it's a family thing, and a big decision.





    You don't need to wear anything special.





    Develop a list of questions in writing! Usually you will forget all the questions you had when the recruiter shows up.





    Think of it as sort of a job interview - he or she will probably have you take a short aptitude test on a laptop, it takes about 30 minutes or so to do, and should give them a good idea of what you will score on the ASVAB.





    ASK QUESTIONS! Write down the answers, so you can share them with your husband later.





    The recruiter is there to help you and inform you, so ask away!!! I would set a follow on appointment so that your husband can meet them etc, if you don't reschedule.
    Act like a human being, dress like a human being, ask questions, answer questions.
    If I were your Husband...


    I would be pissed too...





    To your Husband, he is just another Guy


    that you have invited into your Home,


    without him being there !!!!





    But then you really don't care what your


    Husband thinks or feels do you ???


    Bet you never even talked it over with him ???





    You do know of course that the Divorce Rate


    in the Armed Forces is at 80% ???





    Hmmm...but maybe that is what you want ???
    Don't sign anything! If your husband has a good job there is no reason to sign up. Let the liberal middle and working classes do their job.

    Any advice on how to stop snoring?

    My boyfriend snors really loud at night and it drives me crazy but i know its not his fault and that he cant control it. Any ideas on how to stop it, or is it even possible to stop?Any advice on how to stop snoring?
    Hi I work for a website called http://icyou.com which has thousands of health videos on a wide variety of subjects. Here are some videos on our site that talk about ways to quit snoring:





    http://www.icyou.com/topics/diseases-con鈥?/a>





    http://www.icyou.com/video-source/doctor鈥?/a>





    Hope this helps!Any advice on how to stop snoring?
    Does he stop breathing now and then? Go to the doctor and check if he has sleep apnea.


    The most common type of sleep apnea is obstructive sleep apnea. This most often means that the airway has collapsed or is blocked during sleep. The blockage may cause shallow breathing or breathing pauses.





    When you try to breathe, any air that squeezes past the blockage can cause loud snoring. Obstructive sleep apnea happens more often in people who are overweight, but it can affect anyone.


    If you have sleep apnea there are devices. Like the CPAP facial mask makes it possible to overpressure air and thus stopping the airways to collapse.


    It it not is that serious a tennis ball sewn on the back of his payamasjacket may help. You snore when you sleep on your back.


    There are also small devises to find in a drugstore that keeps the nasal wings open.
    He should go see an Ear, Nose and Throat doctor. He may have an underlying health problem. My daughter used to snore and had to have her tonsils taken out. No more snoring!!
    Just shake him a little bit


    he will stop it for some time

    Ths applies to all genres, really.





    I will start first by going into plot-engines. A plot-engine is what gets the plot up and running and keeps it in motion. There are 2 main ones.





    Event Driven : These are plots that advance because of a sequence of events. They change about everything included in your story-the setting, action, mood, tone, and your character's reaction. One thing to note is that your protagonist doesn't need to undergo any drastic changes.





    Character Driven: The events all spring from ongoing changes within your character. If your character is driven to make things happen, they will probably happen.





    You need plot components to have a good plot. They are problem, complication, and resolution.





    There are 4 main types of problems. Man against society:


    These are the stories in which your protagonist is an individual who sees the world differently from those around him.





    Man against man : A highly recognizable problem is the tale of two rivals. You create two dynamic characters who are totally different.





    Man aginst himself: These are more complex, and probably requires a good understanding of psychology. These are the inner struggles of a protagonist who must decide upon a particular path.





    Man against nature: These are the stories where the protagonist has to dive to the bottom of a trench, climb a mountain, defeat the animal, or survive a diasaster.


    Complications


    Complication is what make plots interesting. It's not enough to just have a problem, you ned to have complications ot make it worse. Keep 2 basic things in mind.


    1. Things must look bad as they can possibly be, and then get worse.


    2. Complication create change.


    Resolution


    It is the way you decide to wrap up your plot. There are 3 main resolutions.


    Protagonsit wins: This is the most popular, because he is the main one the audience has been pulling for throughout.


    Protagonist loses: This takes the audience in a different turn. You need to make sure even in defeat, the protagonist has become a better person.


    Antagonist wins: The audience isn't gonna accept the bad guy winning unless he goes some sort of transformation, maybe shedding his evil persona.


    Plot Requirements


    It needs direction, changes in points, and obviously, suspense. It also needs a clear beginning, middle, and end.





    Tricks


    Multiple viewpoint, narrated from more than one person


    In Medias Res, meaning in the middle on things, because it starts off right in the middle of action. The reader is yanked in and doesn't get a chance to really come up for air, and that's when you throw in a few chapters that 'back-fill'; the events.


    Your plot has to make sense. 3 examples of bad illogical plots are:





    The Idiot Plot, when everyone acts like an idiot, like in the horror movies where they split up and get picked off one by one.


    Nothing that just happens for no reason, author convienence.


    Rabbit out of hat: Related to author concience, it is totally unexplainable and no reason for it to happen.





    Sorry if It's long. Good Luck.

    you need to make the solution first so the rest will fit.
    well sometimes writing the ending first can answer questions that u will propose it the begining, but if u write the begining first- it can develop the ending in a better way. i would say once uve figured out wat your book, essay, watever it is that ur writing is about... u should start with the begining and work towards the end. remember to use a lot of details. in a mystery u want a picture to be painted so its like ur reader is watching it rather thatn reading it.
    if you read most books then they start out with a begining that has nothing to do with the book. then it becomes a major inpact in the story and then it goes to the mission.its easier to write a 20 page summary of the story and write what they are saying. then type it on the computer and you can start.i did all this and i made 287 pages about an adventure/fantasy book.
