Yes if may only save you a few cents each day. However, if EVERYONE switched it would save thousands of $$'s and cut the wasted use of engergy. I replaced every light bulb that could be safely changed to a CFL and am now using 1/4 the wattage used before. What is the average use of wattage for the lighting for the entire world? A lot I imagine. Imagine cutting it 3/4 less. A huge savings. Try them. Its kind of dim when you first turn it on so don't give up after a few seconds. The longer it is on the brighter it will get. And you can not use them in recessed enclosed light fixtures. The bulbs cost a bit more than regular bulbs but not that much more. And they last up to 8 years. Remember the big picture of a world savings when you think your only gonna save a few cents.

I broke my tib and fib just above my ankle 6 weeks ago. I had surgery to pin my fibia and have been in pot for 6 weeks. The cast was removed 3days ago, I was expecting to have a walking pot put on but I was told I didnt need one and to start trying to walk on it. My ankle is very swollen and goes red and purple when I lower my foot to the floor. I can't bear to put any weight on it or put my foot flat to the floor due to the pain so walking is absolutely impossible! There was no mention of physiotherapy at the hospital nor was I given any exercises to help regain movement in my ankle. Is it just a case of elevating my leg until the swelling goes down (how long should this take?) and then I will be able to start to weightbear? Is there something wrong or am I just being a wimp?

I'm sure most Christians realize by now that Jesus was Jewish and that he himself did not start a new religion. With that in mind, how do Christians see Isarlaism and Messianic Judaism? Are they considered to be forms of Christianity, or are they perceived as messianic sects of the old religion of Israel? Are Isars and Messianic Jews seen as right, wrong, or something in between?

(I'm Jewish, and I'm curious about what Christians think of these religious groups.)

I have a 1995 Honda CBR600F3. It rides pretty good still but i have trouble starting it often. Usually i have to really crank the choke up to get it to start and then let it run for a while before i can turn off the choke. if i turn off the choke too soon the bike will stall. i changed the air filter and that didnt seem to help much. Any advice??? Thanks.

Whenever there's a mystery - the Bosnian pyramids, the Great Pyramid at Giza, the 'face' on Mars, Atlantis, climate change - there's an upsurge in the opinion that experts don't know anything and are very keen keep things quiet and maintain the orthodoxy. Why is this?

Experts have trained for many years to be good at what they do and to question the orthodoxy in order to keep the debate alive (no debate = no job). Backing a revolutionary theory is a good way to make your name. So why do the public seem to trust mathematicians who claim they can prove historical events?

We have two cats one of which is about 11 years old. We moved into a new apartment and they somehow have fleas although they are both inside cats. We have tried the sprays on the carpet and the cats and the flee collars and advantage. Nothing has worked. Last weekend we combed them both and got a wet-vac for the carpet, put new flea collars on the cats and yesterday i noticed they are both still scrathcing and I can find new black things on their fur. I am going insane and we cant complain to the apartment office because long story short: they dont know we have cats since they changed management, old management was fine with our cats and told us not to bring it up to the new management. Any suggestions would be very helpful, please keep in mind that one cat is really old. THANKS!

She belittles her 2 other partners in firm wide meetings, tells someone that 100 hours of research is "sketchy" work, clearly has her pets in the office who smoke and drink to excess with her on weekends and fawn all over her. She has no other life than work and expects the same 24/7 dedication from everyone else. She caters to her few while the rest of the staff do the work and get "put down" or totally ignored for the work they have done. The managing partner is wonderful but also caters to her every whim. I plan of moving on soon but feel bad for co-workers who can't see themselves elsewhere at this time. What can I do to help them?

I see it a lot in this section: "Atheists believe that life happened by chance"...."Humans came to existence by random chance"...

Etc, etc.

How is a God creating us any different in that? Did we have any influence on that? Wasn't the possibility just as big that He'd never had created us? Or had created a different species?

Isn't it then not also just random luck that a God chose to create creatures like us?
