I don’t know, but you can check out this cool site I ran across. It is www.cashsavingsolutions.com. Check out the Apparel section near the top of the screen.

I got my bf some for xmas and he’s a 9 or 9.5 in Nike. I got him a 9 in CRs and they fit but he says its a snug fit since the width isnt wide. I hope that makes sense. =)

Alley answers:

Yes.

When buying stuff becomes entertainment, you have cash management problems. You are just buying stuff to fill a desire. That desire will never be satiated with more stuff. And you risk doing it at the cost of your financial future.

You should have a budget for shopping, if you’re that way inclined. Set aside some of your income for saving and some of your income for shopping. That way, you don’t feel too deprived. Make sure you save 10% of your income, though.

Best wishes

Nope. They recommend Apple computers, though, as most of the school computers are Macs so it’s easier to integrate our computers with their systems.

I’m sure Dell payed your school payed a fair amount of money to recommend their laptops since there’s no reason it’s useful to have the same model of laptop as everyone else, just the same OS.

Alley answers:

As a matter of fact, this is true. It was reported in a recent Reader’s Digest in their Medical Updates section. No, they don’t affect women. The issue was the heat generated by the laptop causing a drop in sperm production. It is not a theory, but a fact. Of course, like so many things, two years from now they may come out with a study that says it isn’t as bad as they once thought.

Check www.seatguru.com for your airline and plane or flight, and it will tell you what seats have power outlets (if any) and what adapter you might need.

Alley answers:

Some airlines have a few power sources on some of their larger aircraft (that are generally used for longer flights) but generally there isn’t on most airplanes. As far as internet access, there isn’t on the plane and actually they will tell you to disable the wireless feature on your laptop before you take off. Most airport terminals do have wireless access though, and a few power outlets in the terminal, but often you have to pay a fee (it’s not free wireless in a lot of airports it’s like $5-8 usually for up to 24 hours of access, but chances are you’ll only have time to be using it for a few minutes so it’s not worth paying for).

Alley answers:

That battery looks like a big watch battery and they are pretty cheap. Usually they are located on the mainboard of the computer somewhere. On a laptop that’s likely deep inside it’s belly and hard to get at. You could try to take it apart further, just remember where all the screws go.

Sounds like you might need a new laptop. By brother got one for free from this place. There are a couple to choose from and they aren’t crappy ones. I’m working on getting mine right now. It’s not too difficult. Pretty painless really. Just sign up for 1 free trial or something from their list of things and then get a few other people to do the same.

This is not a simple thing that a do-it-yourselfer can just do without a lot of study and work. Your best bet is probably to contact a solar installer near you and ask them for a free quote. In fact, contact several, and get competitive bids.

If you are still intent on trying it yourself, try Googling “photovoltaic documentary” , or maybe “solar panel self install”.

Alley answers:

I don’t think NASA does specifically, but there are a number of organizations which do.

Satellites have been monitoring solar activity since 1979. Over the past 31 years, solar activity has remained completely flat on average. Here’s the data:

http://www.acrim.com/RESULTS/Earth%20Observatory/earth_obs_fig27.pdf

Scientists have also put together data on solar activity from much further back using various proxies. For example, when there are more sunspots it also means there’s more solar activity, and people have been monitoring sunspot number for centuries. Here’s some longer-term data.

http://solar-center.stanford.edu/sun-on-earth/600px-Temp-sunspot-co2.svg.png

As you can see, the current global warming is clearly not being caused by the Sun, since solar activity has not increased in over 50 years. This is the conclusion of every scientific study on the subject.

Http://www.skepticalscience.com/solar-activity-sunspots-global-warming.htm

We don’t have enough information about the temperature changes on Mars to compare them to those on Earth. We don’t even know for sure if Mars is warming, let alone how much. But we do know that the Sun isn’t causing global warming on Earth right now.

Here’s some info regarding solar power:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_power

http://www.doe.gov/energysources/solar.htm

The US government has a website dedicated to helping people with alternative energy and such. See:

http://hes.lbl.gov/

If you click on the “Remodeling” link, you’re led here:

http://hes.lbl.gov/hes/makingithappen/nrr.html

There’s tons of information regarding solar energy, including financing information (there are grants and tax credits available for “going green.”)

There’s a purchasing link where you can find more info on cost, here:

http://hes.lbl.gov/hes/makingithappen/purchasing.html

Check out the information, and see what is available to you. You might also want to check out your local extension office, or other city resources for more options.

Good luck!

Alley answers:

Yes it is but only if your state will subsidize at least 30% of it and you live in a sunny state (that’s for solar). Wind is more predictable but it costs a bit more due to the wear and tear on the parts.

It is not simple to answer.
There are several different technologies
and many differnent working environments and load factors.

High-spec NASA pannels, clean room semiconductors, redundancy & destructive testing. And a short hostile life generating little useable power – perhaps the case could be made the are a net energy loss.

Organic (dye) photovoltaics, although having lower efficiencies, are much simpler to mass produce, so less net energy input
and in normal use should give ample life to give a positive energy gain. Unfortunaly still very much at development stage so no easy to read summaries

Alley answers:

The problem most likely is ammonia build up. Three fairly large goldfish in a 5 gallon tank is overstocked. The waste produced by the fish is quickly converted into ammonia, which is toxic to the fish. Without a filter, they have almost no chance. The benificial bacteria will not be able to culture fast enough without a filter, and even with a filter, three large goldfish in a 5 gallon tank, the filter would still be overwhelmed. The heavy breathing is probably due to ammonia or nitrite burns of the gill tissue, making it difficult for the fish to ‘breathe’. When you say the water chemistry is all acceptable, what exactly are you talking about? Did you test for Ammonia, NitrIte or NitrAte? These parameters are probably the most important. If you want to save these fish, get them into a larger tank asap.

Alley answers:

Whether or not it’s a broad spectrum antibiotic has little to do with the potential to cause “superinfections”. Amoxicillin is pretty low on the food chain as far as antibiotics go, and many bacteria can be or become resistant to it. Depending on what disease they’re trying to treat, Amoxicillin can be the best choice (for instance: Strep Throat). Gentamicin is only effective against certain gram negative organisms, such as E. Coli, which causes urinary tract infections. Gentamicin would usually only be given after a culture is performed with tests to ensure that it is susceptible to the drug.

In order to prevent superbugs, all doctors have a lab perform cultures with sensitivity tests to be sure the antibiotic works against that strain. Doctors will usually follow up care of the patient, and every hospital is required to have an infection control committee which keeps an eye on all bugs with unusual resistances.

As a patient, the best way to prevent resistant infections is to always finish the antibiotics your doctor gives you, even if you’re feeling better. If a bug is a little bit resistant, you want to be sure to kill it rather than just weaken it and let it grow back.

Alley answers:

Diagnosing a mental illness is often very difficult, because there are so many variables, especially with children. With children under 18 some behavior is appropriate at one age but then most out grow it. Mental health issues are NOT an exact science like most or at leastt many physical illnesses.
Occasionallyy there are blood test or MRI but not usually. And let face it with younger children they often have some trouble expressing how they are feeling.
As far as the best diagnosis, I would go to the best psychiatrist that you can find, one that specializes in children- youchild’sd’s age. I would not take a child to a general pract. For a psych. Evaluation-they just do not have enough experience or training to stick a label on your child for life. Most doctors are reluctant to give a BiPolar diagnosis until well past 18 yrs. If I can answer any other specific questions please email me. God Bless REGGIE
