In the movie, Master and Commander, the Captain gives an order to turn the ship ‘smartly’. In this context, what does the word ‘smartly’ mean? In other words, what’s the difference between turning a ship smartly versus turning a ship not smartly?

I hav bought a new printer couple of days back and took some 20 text print out and 2 photos and now my printer showing 25% ink level. It was 100% when i first see the ink level before taking any print out. Is this the way all the printer consumes ink or i hav to make some settings to make it right?

Will my neutered 6 month old cat spray if I get a girl kitten in September? He has never sprayed before, but if I get another cat, will he start?
Thanks everyone!

I'm in a dispute with a buyer on ebay's half.com.
One of the messages she sent me was directly from her e-mail to my e-mail. When it comes to ebay contact I only communicate to people through the ebay message system. That way my contact information can remain confidential. I never hit reply I always go to the website and click on contact buyer/seller. I have copies of all the messages I sent her, none of them have my e-mail address in them. The only other way I can think of is from the packaging slip that I sent with the package. That thing has my e-mail address on it.
I did a small experiment. I used the messages she sent me through ebay and hit the reply button. Her e-mail address was in the To: section although when it was sent it said amailer@half.com . Then I used one of the copies of the e-mails I sent her and clicked reply. It said amailer@half.com in the To: section. What's going on here?

I have 3 kids ages 7, 3 and almost 2 and I have no idea what to do with them all day. It seems like my day to day is full or chaos and I have no set times for anything.

I really want to because it's so open and I beleive in a lot of the stuff, but I don't beleive in a "god" or "goddess."
I mean, not as a thinking entity. I think of them more as a course of nature.
Could I still be accepted into that religion?
What are your opinions?

My husband and I want to draw up a will just in case something happens to us, so that there will be no question of who gets custody of our children. We have a 3-year-old and I am also 6 months pregnant. My husband has no siblings and I have one brother who is in his late twenties. He is newly married (she is 30). They are both physically healthy, and emotionally and financially stable. Here's the dilemma: they are not sure if they want to have children or not. Granted, they are very fond of my son and great with him, and they may decide to have children in the future . But I would hate for them to be granted custody and have them resent my children for tying them down or whatever. Should we have a conversation with them both about this? It would be awkward and I'm not sure how to approach them. Any suggestions? We would like to keep them with someone in the family but it would be hard to choose which set of our parents to give them to.
