My former employer had a bag where we could recycle milk bottle tops (UK milk bottles are glass with an aluminium foil top and are delivered to the doorstep).
I saw many of my colleagues washing the tops in copius amounts of hot water before throwing into the bag. Question. What's the energy saving in recycling 10cm2 of aluminium foil compared to say heating say 500ml water to 40C?

My little girl is 5months old and has two bottom teeth which she is biting me with and quite often, I dont want to shout at her or hurt her as that is very cruel and she is too young to understand NO, I shout when she does it as it hurts initially but im trying not to as she thinks its a game and is funny. Anyone got any tried and tested methods, shields dont work as she thinks its a bottle end and bites even more, I only feed her at 7am and 7pm on breast as she takes bottle at 11am and 3pm. Hope someone can help me and fast before i lose my nipples......

I am 18f this year and I have had acne since I was 12. I thought I would outgrow this problem but I haven't. Last time, it was only on my t zone but now, things have gotten bad and it actually grows all over my face, even under my nose and my earlobes .i suffer breakouts every other day.It is really frustrating because its not only itchy but sensitive and painful to touch. It is rather unpleasant to the sight too.
can someone help me? are there any good products? I have tried many but to no avail. The doctor says I may have pcos and that is causing the breakouts.I have tried tetracycline pills but they are not very effective.

I do not want to take the pill as it causes me to have bloating and nausea. I would appreciate it if someone could help me, thanks!

i have a 01 for tuarus and the heater in it isnt working. it isnt even really drawing any heat from the motor. I was wondering what the problem could be. it is a very litle warm like maybe 60-70 on its hotest temp and it should be sweating us out and we are barley not frozen. I am just asking what could it be? and is it simple or hard to fix if you think you know the answer . thanx nick

Hi, I'm 18. I just have one little spot under my chin that needs shaving. A few isoloate hairs on my cheeks that don't become evident until a week without shaving. The hair under my arms is there, but is much less than there should be. I also notice that it's always been hard to grow muscle and that my body looks a little underformed. I get flack from friends all the time for my youthfulness. I truly believe there is a chemical/genetic problem. I have brown hair. I went to an endocrinologist about a year ago and he agreed that I looked very young, but my testosterone tests came back normal, as did the others. Has anybody here come across such a phenomenon before or know anybody with similar symptoms?Anyone who says that I should be grateful for not having to shave doesn't understand that I feel embarassed for looking like I'm still an 8th grader. If not for this, I believe I'd be a handsome guy.

I am a man who is very soft spoken, I get really frustrated with my voice as I am often mistaken for a lady and this has had real effects on me as I lose confidence in interviews and myself as a man, this problem really hurts me and I wish I could just get rid of this vocal issue especially for the sort of position I am applying for. I wish someone out there can help me......................with a solution.

Cubans and other Latin American populations sometimes have Muslim names though they are not Muslim themselves. Names such as Ibrahim ( instead of the judeo-Christian Abraham) or Omar...
Where does this tradition come from ? Post-reconquista arabo-andalusian emigrants, West African Muslim slaves ? Political reasons ?
