If your dog is doing something bad, is it okay to hit (I'm not saying I do) him/her? Like in the face, or on the behind? Or, even pretend like you're going to hit him/her? Because it seems like just saying "No!" isn't enough. If not, how do you punish your dog for doing something bad, in a way that they will understand that what they did was wrong?

when I signed up for comcast internet and cable I just got the basic everything and my plan was first 3 months internet for 19.99 and free cable...then after the 3 months I'd pay regular price for cable. There was no contract so they said I could cancel whenever. My last bill was for 105 dollars and it looked like they charged me 2 different types of cable but of course when I called they tried to trick me to think that's what I signed up for. Someone said it doesnt matter if you pay the bill cuz its not connected to your credit card or SSN and if you don't pay it will just cut it off for the next month. Is that a good idea--they over charged me my neighbors pay like 70 for the same thing I have

When i flush my toilet my well kicks on/off around four times, I watch the pressure gauge go up to set point(60*) and shut off,and then as the toilet is still calling for water, it drops down to set point(40*).so the gauge seems to drop quickly as soon as the well shuts off. is it that my old galvanized tank is water logged?

who are you voting for?
btw im happy that we have a black president running because majority of the black population will vote for him even though he is going nowhere. Also im happy for Hillary because she will take all or about %99 percent of the democratic cacasion female vote. The rest of the democrat vote will be scattered to whoever. I think people would be more proud of a zoo animal like a bear being the commander and chief of the U.S. military over Hillary or it would at least be comparable.
As for Republicans they stay with the same ideas with little backing to it. McCain sounds like George Bush 2. They are conservatives with closed minds. My vote is Rebulican not McCain unless it is against Hillary.
I would rather have conservative president than anyone who lacks from it that badly. lol. Who do you vote for and why? If your black you can just put a yes note and i will know who, that was a joke. I have only seen 2 black people who said they were not going to vote for obama.

The entire postal department in Chennai does not deliver properly the mails due to Old number New Number confusion. Lakhs of letters are wrongly delivered due to the Old Number New Number confusion. I also found nobody have time to really bother about this especially when I informed this to my opposite person he said that I have handed over your letters to the watchman to give it to you. If he has not given what shall I do? The opposite house watchman must have thrown those letters in the dustbin including some important bank statements etc.
I wonder whether Corporation of Chennai has any proposals for setting right the old number new number confusion?
Also, whether the postal department has any plans to work more efficiently to make reach the concerned mails to the concerned people rather than hand it over wrongly. Several crores of mails are to be delivered properly. Can they deliver without any old number new number confusion?

Hypothetically, how exactly do two human beings spawn entirely different, distinct races of people? There should obviously be 1 master race -- based on the race Adam & Eve were. For example, If they were white-skinned, then where did black people come from? The children they had should have kept having white children. Wouldn't it be odd for a white couple to start having black kids? Are Christians (unknowingly) citing evolution here? Tell me, how do two people spawn entirely different races of people who are characteristicly different from one another?

A co-worker told me about a week ago that I can ruin my sneakers from not wearing any socks in them. I didn't believe her, because I have been wearing sneakers without socks for most of my life, and none of my sneakers never got ruined, except for the insoles turning yellow from aging. How can the sneakers be ruined? I do know that there are sneakers out there specificly made to be worn without socks, and those are the sneakers I normally buy. Is this true that sneakers can be ruined from not wearing socks, and what happens to them if they are ruined?

it's hard to explain, but if the pet didn't know what happened would it be harder for them to cope with your death because they wouldn't have closure, they would just want to see you but wouldn';t be able to find you. I feel worse for a dog sometimes when i hear of someone dying and leaving behind a pet, because they never really know what happened to u.

Is it true that your first love sticks with you? Though not my first, I fell deeply in love as a teenager - we broke up because his parents moved away... we stayed in contact for years, through failed marriages, etc.. and only recently "lost" eachother because of moves again.. I partly blame all my messed up relationships on the fact I've never really gotten over him.. and that even if I "found" him again and it failed, at least I knew it to be the end... What about you? Do you still dream of your first love? Did you ever get back together? What happened?

I have this problem for a while and its driving me mad. i have given my old pc to my parents, it has been put away for a year and has an administrator password on that i cannot remember.
I have tried everything to get into windows, but it won't let me. The only option it gives is to log on as administrator with the password which i dont have. i cannot log on as anyother user or make any new accounts.
I have someone sending me a copy of windowsXP, now i just need to make the pc boot from the cd drive.
I have been into BIOS and i dont think it will let me change the order because i dont have administritive rights?..i think thats what it said.
Any help would be really appreciated. My parents have been paying for broadband for a week and not been able to use it, its so frustrating!

On the declared ex-date of a dividend, the price will fall by the opening of the market that morning so the company can adjust its share price with the dividends it is paying to investors.

With this being so predictable, would shorting a small amount of shares the day before and then closing out on them the next day be profitable? Has anyone tried this?

thanks =)
