Colette (who is very thin) went to a coffee shop for lunch and a girl who is there was eating lunch with her brother. The girl who is mentally challenged saw Colette eating a bagel and cream cheese and said You shouldnt eat that. The brother
explained that his sister just came from a nutrition lecture. Colette said oh.Colette
told a co-worker the story and said Do I look fat?The co-worker said Colette you are very thin. Later on Colette went to make Xerox copies of a report. Colette was standing on one side of the Xerox machine and Josie on the other and all they
could see of one another was from the waist up. Colette and Josie exchanged small talk and then Colette said Josie do you think I am thin? Josie hesitantly said Well, and then decided not to wait to make copies. Colette finished making copies went back to her desk. Late afternoon Colette got up to do something and Josie ran
over and said to Colette I only saw you sitting down, my god you are thin. Colette
that night got together with a few friends and in passing told them what transpired between she and Josie and all Colettes friends said the only reason Josie said Well in a hesitant voice was because Josie never saw you (Colette) standing she
(Josie) only saw you (Colette) sitting so she (Josie) never realized how thin you (Colette) are and she (Josie) even admitted when she (Josie) saw you (Colette) standing that you (Colette) are thin. MY QUESTION: Do you concur with Colettes friends that Josie only said Well in a hesitant voice was because Josie never saw Colette standing, Josie only saw Colette sitting so Josie never realized how thin Colette is and Josie thinks Collete is thin?

Hello again,
Listen... you have been asked to stop posting repetitive questions more than once.
The help you need is apparently not something that can be provided by this site. This is obvious, because you are still asking the same questions again and again.
I will make this very direct, so that there is no misunderstanding:
Post no more questions along these lines. If you do your account will be permanently suspended.
I am tired of dealing with complaints about this.
Please seek professional help. Nobody here can help you. We know this because practically everyone has tried at least once.
Again, stop worrying about your waistline, and start worrying about your mental health.

I just had a feedback level of 4.91, and I got three more 5's. It is still the same...why?

Hi there,
You sure have been here a long time to not have ever read the FAQ.
http://www.advicenators.com/faq.php?t=6
... check that out. Go to the "your feedback" link.
That will explain everything you need to know.
If you still have issues with it, let me know.

me and my bestie are having a b-day party at a pool, and the theme is pretty n' pink. We are giving out party bags, and EVERYTHING in them has to be pink.
we wil have different party bags for guys and girls.
we are going to put like pink nailpolish in the gurls..and pink candy in both of them..but we need more ideas!! Please make them all pink..and not too expensiveee. Thanks!!
I ratee!!

Hi there,
You might want to re-think giving guys you like pink bags full of pink things.
At best, what you are hoping will be appreciated will be laughed at, and at worst they will be really insulted.
There is a reason you are having problems finding guy related things in pink. Think about that.
If all the guys coming to your party are gay and fashionable, then ignore this.
If not, and you don't want to send the message: "We think you are gay! Here's a little pink bag for you." Think twice about this.
Have fun.

Where should the timing marks be on the Cam and crank pulley's when the valve timing on the Daihatsu Charade 1985 993cc (1 litre) engine is set? (link)
|
There IS help for your problem!
Having never even seen a Daihatsu Charade in person, I can't help personally, however, I know someone who can:
Post in the forums here:
http://www.daihatsu-drivers.co.uk/
... and:
http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/f1312/
... and:
http://www.haynes.co.uk/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=6
... and I can tell you from reading a little about this car from the places I tried for help with your problems, that you are going to need a Daihatsu Charade service manual.
Here is a link to a website with one for sale:
http://www.pitstop.net.au/view/marques-daihatsu/page/query/plu/6800/
... and here is an eBay search for them, which has some better prices:
http://search.ebay.com/search/search.dll?sofocus=bs&sbrftog=1&from=R10&_trksid=m37&satitle=%28daihatsu%2Cdiahatsu%29+charade+manual&sacat=-1%26catref%3DC6&sargn=-1%26saslc%3D2&sadis=200&fpos=41535&sacqyop=ge&sacqy=&ftrt=1&ftrv=1&saprclo=&saprchi=&sass=&fsop=1%26fsoo%3D1&coaction=compare&copagenum=1&coentrypage=search
... once you have the shop repair manual (they are VERY hard to find) you will have the answer to this, and all the other eventual questions you will have about your 1985 Diahatsu Charade.
Good luck.

http://gunbound.ijji.com/ its on that site. okay, i had an account from a lomg time ago.. well about a year ago, and i forgot the password to i sent a thing to my email so i could change the password. after i did that, i installed gunbound to my computer. after clicking the gunbound thing to start the game, off my desktop, it launched a page on internet explorer and i wasnt logged in. i didnt log in before but whenever i log in it brings me to this stupid page.. http://login.ijji.com/activate/gb.nhn i am so pissed because under "please try the following", i dont even get it.. the page was right but is not logging me in so i cannot play the game! HELP!!!!!! (link)
|
Hi there,
We can't see the page you do when you log in, so giving us a link is no help. You will have to copy and paste the text you see on that page into a new question, or better yet, as additional info to this question.
Probably the best way to get this resolved quickly is to go to gunbound's customer service site:
http://cs.ijji.com/
... and click the 1:1 inquiry link. This way you can ask them a question directly.
Good luck.

yesterday, i was trying to end my AOL notifications by using using task manager [alt+cntrl+delete] in the "processes" tab. well, in the process, i went through and deleted things i didn't think i needed [i'm pretty computer-knowledgable.. except for now. haha.] i must have ended a process that i didn't mean to, because now my task manager looks like this when i open it [minus the black boxes, i did that so no one would see my user name]:
http://i12.tinypic.com/5ywcgsm.jpg
can anyone tell me how to get it back to normal? thanks. (link)

Theymos is spot-on.
In all the years I have been doing this, I apparently never double-clicked the window padding in task manager, nor have I even seen anyone else do it.
Congratulations on being unique. :-)

Dear American Eagle shopper,
It turns out to be really easy to do what you need.
You should read the FAQ for the AE All Access Pass program here:
http://www.aeallaccesspass.com/FAQ.aspx
... if you have any other questions or problems, but here is what I found by doing that for you:
From: http://www.aeallaccesspass.com/FAQ.aspx#credits7
"If I forget to show my membership card, can I still get Credits?
Absolutely. As long as you have a valid receipt from the current earning period, you can earn Credits for any eligible purchase. Enter your Credits by the end of the earning period in order to get the Reward you deserve.
Just visit the Get Credits page to enter your receipt information or, you can call AE All-Access Pass Customer Service at 1-800-340-0532."
... I couldn't get the get credits link to work, so I am not going to included it here. Click the link above to go to the FAQ, which may let you go there if you are logged in or something.
American Eagle customer service seems very eager to please.
Good luck.

Ok I'm using this scar medicine and it's the best one ever everyone says (DERMATIX Silicone Gel) and it says that it's self dries.
Um..when I uttedd it on and after an hour it still looks the same. What is it supposed to look like if it dies? It's clear and see through and it doesn't change at all. (link)
|
Dear Dermatix user,
From the site:
http://www.dermatix.co.uk/introducing_dermatix/how_to_use/
... "Dermatix gel is very simple to apply and should be used twice a day:
Step 1: Dermatix gel is simple to apply and should be used twice daily
Optimal contact with the skin is important for efficacy [1]
Step 2: Clean the area to be treated with mild soap and water, pat dry
Most skin irritation due to occlusive patches occurs from maceration* or poor hygiene
*Maceration: when the skin becomes pale, moist, wrinkled and soggy, such as when a plaster has been on for too long
Step 3: Gently spread a very thin coat over the affected area
To ensure that Dermatix self-dries in 4–5 minutes
Step 4: Allow to dry for 4–5 minutes before covering with make-up
Allows for discreet scar remodelling
Step 5: Dermatix dries partially as a result of the temperature difference between the skin and the gel.
If Dermatix has not dried within 4–5 minutes, you have applied too much – remove the excess and allow the drying process to continue.
Faster drying time in warmer weather can be achieved by keeping Dermatix in the fridge before application. In cooler weather faster drying time can be achieved by a medium-to low temperature setting on a blow-dryer."
.... You should see your dermatologist who is handling your scar situation to make sure you are applying it correctly, but something that jumped out at me while researching this:
Gently spread A VERY THIN COAT over the affected area TO ENSURE that Dermatix self-dries in 4–5 minutes
... perhaps try a thinner coating? Also make sure the skin is completely clean and dry before applying dermatix
Here is the site, if you want to read more:

i got arrested last november and i was wondering if there is any way to get a copy of my mugshot by the way i live in evergreen park illinois (its liek 20 minutes from chicago) (link)
|
If you are over 18, then getting your mugshot is no problem... it is a matter of public record in most places. Just call the agency that booked you and ask for it.
If you are a juvenile delinquent/offender, then your records are not public. You should go to the booking desk of the agency in question with your ID, and probably a parent or legal guardian.
They should provide you with what you are after.
If you have a parole/probation officer, they could also help you.
Why would you want a copy of this? Just curious.

is it possible to change your name on hi5 without changing the account? (link)
|
Dear hi5.com user,
From the FAQ at: http://kb.hi5.com/display/4n/kb/faq/index.asp?tab=faq&kbid=12537&onekb=1
... "How do I change my profile name?
You can change the name that appears on your profile by going to the "My Profile" tab and clicking on the "Edit this Section" link, next to "Basic" on you Profile page. On the page that appears, change your name as desired, and make sure that you click on 'Save Profile' when you're done. The name that appears on your profile page will be the same as the First Name that you enter here."
... if you want to change the URL that points to your page, you may not like what hi5.com has to say about it:
"You can create your own hi5 URL by going to the "Edit Profile" link beside your account photo on your home page. Select the "Basic" tab. Enter the nickname you wish to have in your URL and click "Save". Once you select your hi5 URL, you won't be able to change or delete it."
I know some site let you merge two accounts, unfortunately hi5.com doesn't:
"Merge 2 hi5 accounts
Currently, we do not have the option of merging two hi5 accounts. The feature of transferring your friends from one hi5 account to another is also not available on hi5. Please send out friend requests to all the friends who are not in your preferred account. Once they have all accepted, you can delete the other account."
Here is the most important link on hifive:

How do I delete my profile off of true.com? (link)
|
Hello there,
From the site:
http://www.true.com/user_agreement.htm
"TERMINATION
18. Account Termination. I may terminate my account only by contacting TRUE.com Customer Service by phone between the hours of 8 a.m. and 8 p.m. (Central) Monday through Friday, and between the hours of 10 a.m. and 7 p.m. (Central) on Saturday and Sunday. In the United States and Canada, dial toll-free 1.866.212.8198 or 1.972.374.9402 (toll charges apply). I agree that TRUE.com may terminate my account for any reason, effective upon sending notice to me at the email address I provided when signing up"
If you want to hide your profile until you can delete it, then this is from the FAQ listed on the bottom of every page of www.true.com:
"Q: How do I hide my profile?
A: To hide your profile, log in, then click Hide My Profile underneath My Profile. To make your profile visible again, click Make My Profile Visible."
Also from the FAQ:
"Q: How do I cancel my membership?
A: Are you sure you want to cancel? If so, click here http://www.true.com/member_offer.htm?mo=12"
... but trust me, if you want your profile deleted and your membership cancelled on true.com, then you need to call them.
I found a few reviews saying how they don't let go of members easily, while I was looking for this info for you.

Allo DN,
I sent you an e-mail a while ago, just a few hours after you sent me one. Maybe it didn’t go through, but I don’t want you to think I didn’t reply. This seemed like the best way to give you a heads up. No pressure though. I know you are swamped.
Anyways, in order to not make this an illegal question: I shall now ask for advice!
I almost listed moderating at Advicenators.com on my resume this week. The position I was applying for would include a lot of work with high school students, giving them some career guidance, supervising and generally being the go-to girl at the company for students and teachers. I decided against it, but what would you think about listing advicenators.com on a resume?

Hello Razhie,
Thanks for checking. You said not to hurry a reply, so I haven't. Time goes by in funny jerks for me lately, and makes it impossible to tell what was a week ago and what was yesterday.
If you have Skype, or YahooIM, that would be a much better way to reach me these days.
As for your question:
I recommend people use this site as a reference, and will provide contact info for the purpose, if requested.
Your time here counts for something. I would be remiss if I didn't help you to get real world credit for what you do here.
Thanks again,
DN.

I have a Digital Concepts(that's the name brand) 3.1 Mega Pixel digital camera. I was trying to find out how to lock my photos so that they couldn't be deleted, and I accidentally hit 'format' instead. Now, it says that no files exist on my camera. It has a memory card with it, also. These pictures are very important to me and I would really like to have them back. Is there anyway to get them back? (link)

can ammonia on a rag when put on someones face make you pass out? (link)

Yes... pass out forever, as in dead. Don't do this.
Seek counseling immediately if you spend time thinking about kidnapping and hurting people. I am not kidding.

Is there any website that you can put in information [description] .. to find the name of flora and fauna?
I've got this biology project to do.. and we must take pictures of plants and animals.. put it on a page with their scientific name and the name of the animal/plant
But there's some plants.. that are REALLY hard to find the name of.
There's this huge bush of small yellow flowers.. by this marsh/bay place. When I put yellow flowers bush in google and change it around.. I find nothing.
How can I find the names of these plants/animals?
Here's a picture-
http://www.flickr.com/photos/erinmalone/4652181/in/pool-alviso/
I've tried putting the name of the park I visited in Google to see if someone made a list of plants/animals.. but I have had no luck (link)
|
Hello there,
Once I figured out the Alviso was a town, then that Alviso was a town in California... I started a search for "Alviso flowers" then "Alviso Yellow" which landed me one interesting result with no picture.
So what are the yellow flowers growing in the marshes of Alviso California?
... as far as I can tell, it is one of two types:
"Grindelia Stricta"
... or:
"Grindelia Camporum"
... so if you go to the search box above, and then switch to image search, I think the mystery of the yellow marshy-swampy flowers in Alviso California will be solved. :-)
Interestingly enough, they also appear to have several benefits as healing herbs from what I read while looking them up. Just a side note.
Let me know in feedback if this is the answer you needed, since I can't see the plant in person it is hard to tell.
Oh, and the common name of the plant is "Gumweed."

I know this is sick, but I have a male cat and he has this problem with peeing everywhere, and my house smells like cat pee. It's absolutely sick, and I love the cat but it really makes me want to get rid of him. He stays in my basement/mudroom now, but what can I use to get rid of that sick smell? (link)
|
Hi there,
I can't believe nobody has mentioned this by name yet: Nature's Miracle
It is a pet odor remover that works via enzymes.
You put it on and let it dry. The enzymes do their work while it completes the drying cycle.
Fantastic stuff.
As everyone else said, if he is going to be an indoor cat, he will have to be "fixed" if he hasn't been already, and it still may not eliminate the problem.
What you may have on your hand here is a cat that needs to stay outside. Obviously you can't keep him locked in one area forever, since that would be cruel.
Oh, and one more thing that is very helpful: Get yourself a UV light... a blacklight. Why? Because the urine will glow under a blacklight and you will be able to see where to put the Nature's Miracle enzyme odor killer. :-)
You know how it is... if the cat sprays in one place, you can't tell where it is because once you are in the room... EVERYTHING smells like cat spray! :-(
I hope you get this handled soon. I know how bad that situation can be.

ok well i was doing a scan..and most of the files infected came from the cookies...how do i clean them and if i clean them...does it remove the infections? cause like every site i visited had an infection .... thank u :) (link)
|
Hi there,
The odds are that you are running LavaSoft's AdAware, which reports all tracking cookies as problems.
If you are running something else, it would be helpful to say what spy ware scanner you were using when you got these results.
Before I forget, I would like to agree with the person below that SpyBot Search and Destroy, is a great spyware program. You should get it, and use it alongside whatever else you use now for removing spyware from your computer.
In whatever program you use, there may be a way to disable scanning of cookies altogether. I just ignore them, but if that bothers you, you could try to stop it from scanning cookies at all.
Cookies do NOT contain viruses. They are just little bits of text that the website you are visiting uses for things. Some sites use it to track what pages you go to, some sites, like ours, use it so you can stay logged in without having to put your username and password in on every single page.
Someone below said to delete all your cookies... That is bad advice. Any site where you logged in and said "remember me" or "keep me logged in" will no longer know who you are until you log in again. When you log in again, it will set the cookie again to help you stay logged in, so what is the point of deleting them?
For whatever this is worth: I have been in computers for over 20 years, and I don't delete all cookies. EVER.
To recap: Cookies aren't dangerous, as a rule.
They can be used to track you from one site to another, but that isn't what most sites use them for.
Cookies are NOT viruses.
If you need anything else, let me know.

ok a couple questions have been asked on my account, that i didnt ask. there about girls being fat or something. what should i do? also can people see that my account asked these questions? (link)
|
Hi there,
First things first: Change your password.
Change it to something people will not guess.
Secondly: If other people have access to your computer... ALWAYS log out when you are done.
Third: Send me an e-mail directly to:
admin@advicenators.com
... with a list of the questions you did NOT ask. I will take care of it.
Lastly: Nope, only the L2 and higher mods can see who asked what, and generally only look if there is an abuse report filed on the account.
