I am a dog walker who has to deal with many poorly trained dogs. I like to use prong collars to begin what little training I can do with my clients, as I only see them half an hour a day so I can't spend any extra time training them (not my job anyway). However, some owners look at the prong collar and think that it's cruel to the dog. I know how to use it, so how can I explain to them that it's a training tool and does not hurt the dog.

To those who will come and say "How can you use prong collars, they're so cruel and you're so mean!!!!" I'm not listening to you as my opinion on how useful prong collars are can't be changed. I'm asking a question on how to speak to the owners to try and make them feel better, not on whether or not prong collars hurt the dog. Any thoughts?

So, I have a friend that I have drawn very close to. I might even be able to call her a 'best friend'. But lately, she's been hanging out with another friend, and it's driving me mad. I can never talk to her about the problem I'm experiencing because I'm afraid of the outcome. I keep having thoughts that she might even think its a hilarious reason to get mad/jealous at. But, I am very jealous of the person she's hanging out with, I do have some idea on why I am jealous (because my close friend might draw closer to the other person, and just forget that I even exist) but I cant take this neglect, it hurts me really bad on the inside that she might forget what we built up. Any ideas? Tips?

I live in NY State. My business wanted to expand to a facility next door also owned by my current business landlord. He verbally agreed twice and even once over email and gave me the keys. If he is trying to get out of it now is he already bound?

A student wants to determine the coefficients of static friction and kinetic friction between a box and a plank. She places the box on the plank and gradually raises one end of the plank. When the angle of inclination with the horizontal reaches 25°, the box starts to slip, and it slides 2.4 m down the plank in 4.1 s at constant acceleration.

(a) What is the coefficient of static friction?
(b) What is the coefficient of kinetic friction?

If an airplane takes off from a city at sea level, and then flies to a city whose elevation is a 'mile high', what does the altimeter say when the plane lands? (Or vice versa, what does the altimeter say when flying from a city that is a mile high, and lands at a city located at sea level ?)

Thank You in advance.

How would this affect a man's overall health? Recently there was a story about a California (USA) man who went in for surgery to have an unhealthy testicle removed and the wrong one was taken off. What health problems, if any, will he have when both of them are gone? (Besides pyscological issues, I mean.)

Last year me and my friend had a baby together trust me no one was more shock than me that i was pregnant since we had protection at the time. Anyways we had alittle girl and she's 5 months right now and doing very well. We can't take care of her like we wanted to so we decided to place her in open adoption. The parents we picked are really nice and we still get to see her. About 2 weeks ago we had to go to court and give up our rights as parents and it was very hard on both of us but we wanted what was best for her. In the begining we still were around eachother and talked but then when we sign papers to get our court date we rarley spoke to one another in court was the first time iv'e seen him in months. I ask him to talk with me about it and he text me saying that he couldnt talk about it and doubts he ever could. That mad me so angry because he may not need to but i do he promised me that he would always be there if i ever needed someone to talk to. Is it wrong that i'm angry?

I am dating a Catholic and I grew up in a Methodist Church. My boyfriend is very knowledgeable in his faith where as I am not. I have been to Catholic services and other denominations services. I enjoy the more contemporary style in church. I enjoy contemporary music. My boyfriend grew up in a very traditional, formal, Catholic Church. He gets nervous when it comes to a contemporary style. He likes Catholicism and whishes to not change. I know I would be the one to be able to change religion more easily, but I just don't want to feel like I'm the only one trying to compromise. If I do change, I want it to be because I want to. Any suggestions?

If a person feels utterly helpless in her life,like there is no light at the end of the tunnel,and she is very sensitive,there is a good chance that depression will develop...which often leads to irrational thinking and angry outbursts.Why don't others comprehend this and try to be more understanding and empathetic?
