If you could ask advice on anything what would it be? (10 for the best)?

what would you ask advice about? best answer gets 10 pointsIf you could ask advice on anything what would it be? (10 for the best)?
I would ask if I'm thinking too much into things. Like, over analyzing the situation. (being a girl, we do that alot)If you could ask advice on anything what would it be? (10 for the best)?
Sorry! I can't say! I'd be way too embarrassed to actually ask THAT question of anybody!
How do I get rid of my horrible cold?

  • My fianc茅e is considering joining the Navy, and I was looking for info on base life. Any advice?

    The schools on Navy bases are run by the local School District/County so you would have to find out when he gets his orders if it would be an option. Some states would require certification in their state so you will have to check the regulations for teachers. you can do substituting as an option at first if you can't get full time employment. The only exception to it being run by the county/School District if it is in overseas outside the US states and then it is run by Department of Defense. When you are married and he goes to his first command go to the FFSC - Fleet %26amp; Family Support Center, they offer employment fairs, Spouse 101 classes, budgeting classes, etc... That can offer you good information and help.





    Not always can you get into housing right on base or is all housing on base. Sometimes there is a wait up to 2 years to get into housing in some locations as they are remodeling it all. And in areas the majority of the military housing is actually off base. San Diego and Pearl Harbor are two examples of that. if you do get into housing then you are responsible for the care of the house, there is restrictions on what you can and can't do, how many pets, etc... You must pay for cable, internet and telephone, the rest they pay for under the BAH (housing allowance) he receives. In some places it is actually better to live in civilian housing because you can get more for what you are paying. If he is Jr Enlisted (E6 and below) and you do not have kids then you are limited to a 2 bedroom places. You might be able to find a 3 or 4 bedroom house off base for the same amount or if you find a 2 bedroom place you don't pay out as much in rent %26amp; utilities so you pocket the rest.





    In housing you are around other spouses whose husbands are in the military. It can be good and bad at the same time. Sometimes you make great friends who last a lifetime and in other times you don't meet anyone at all because everyone keeps to themselves. Out in town you might meet people in your area and you might not it honestly depends on where you are and what you are doing. Definitely try out the command's FRG - Family Readiness Group it can give you information about the command and help while they are deployed.








    on base there is usually a gym, theater, bowling alley, then there is the commissary (grocery store) and exchange (department store) that are for military personnel and their dependents to use.My fianc茅e is considering joining the Navy, and I was looking for info on base life. Any advice?
    navy housing is hard to come by and not on the actual base its outside of it





    its basically civilian for you since you are a civilian also unless your married you get nothing





    you can apply and get work at the exchange at what not





    once married you will get bah for rent and when hes out to sea for longer than 30 days you will get separation pay





    ship life is hard he will be gone more than he is home. ships o out to sea for work ups and training every few weeks for weeks at a time





    you will be alone a lot one thing to do is get in touch with his ships frg group he will get the info from his command know who your ombudsmen are and how to reach them








    good luck its hard life but well worth itMy fianc茅e is considering joining the Navy, and I was looking for info on base life. Any advice?
    OK WOW living on base is NOTHING like Army Wives!! Nor is all housing or even most housing OFF base. Most housing is on base and depending on rank and or dependent status. If you have a teaching degree that is great. Most of the time the elementary school is on base, and there is a program on every base for spouse employment. I would tell you that getting a job on base is really easy but that is not true sometimes depending on what base you are on. There is a lot of good and bad about living on base. I love my neighbor, I hate the rest of the people on this street!! Just be ready because the Navy can deploy often. It does not always happen but it does happen. As far as living off base you should discuss that later. It will be really hard to do at the first duty station. Check the BAH and what rent really cost in that area. Think about the bills and things like that. If he is just joining you will not be making much money for a while so living on base could be good because you don't have to worry about rent, or living off base in a cheap apartment and you get to keep the BAH.


    I know this because I use to be in the Navy myself and now married to a Marine and live on my third base
    id live off base, youd get more money for housing and more choice of where you live. you can always get a job on base and live off base.





    say you were out with your friends and you had a few drinks, lets just say you cant drive on base with even a few drinks. check points.
    base life is pretty good it is like living in a community but if you are married you may be able to live off base in a town house or whatever you find that the navy is willing to pay.but i think you would have to enlist to work there
    Live on Base if you want to make friends just like you. (first duty station)





    Live off Base if you have no kids and don't care being friends with other Navy spouses.





    Watch Army Wives that show is somewhat helpful
    if you're not married you wont get anything...


    living on base is good, utilities are paid for


    if you choose to live off base then you gt more


    money but utilities arent paid for..

    Is it possible for an adult to get dating advice from a teenage since the adult has never managed to do it?

    My step nephew has a girlfriend it seems, I have never managed it. (I have social anxiety disorder mixed with Asperger's Syndrome, not a good combination.)Is it possible for an adult to get dating advice from a teenage since the adult has never managed to do it?
    I would suggest that you deal with one situation at a time. Develop coping skills to manage your social anxiety disorder and then move on to dating. Mature teens will have good advice for other teens, but if you want a mature adult outlook, seek advice from a mature adult.

    I just need some advice about being married and in the military! please be serious...?

    well. thats a tough one. Its going to be kind of hard to be married and not live together. that is why the military has a higher divorce rate than civilian life. there are benefits to being married though. you get more money and she gets health care. i know people who get married just for those alone. the downside is you always have to worry about Jody. He is the guy sleep with the wives, while the husbands are deployed or in the field. Its something we can't answer here. It has to be figured out by the two of you.I just need some advice about being married and in the military! please be serious...?
    Well think of it this way. In a way it's good to be a part from each other for a while. What will happen to her when you deploy. I know totally different. Deployment is not by choice. but it does help getting used to time apart. Sometimes long distance relationships are the way worth the try!!!!


    good luckI just need some advice about being married and in the military! please be serious...?
    My mother was an army wife for just over 20 years. The thing that seemed to help her the most was the support and friendship of her fellow army wives. My dad had to travel alot in his position within the army and the other wives who were in the same boat all rallied around and supported each other. When one of the guys that dad worked with got injured and had to stay in hospital for a while his wife didn't have to cook a meal for about the first six weeks. There was a casserole or some other meal left on her doorstep by one of her fellow army wives.
    What type of advice? Is it you or your spouse in the military? Was the military one in before you got married? If before, then you just have to adapt to the way things are run in the military. If you were married before the military, it is a whole new ballgame, and can be very stressful and difficult to accept the changes. I have been married for 5 years, and my husband joined while I was 6 months prego and we had been married for 2 years. I've come to accept how things work, but you have to constantly know in the back of your head that you can plan as much as you want, but the Army will mess up the best of your plans. There are several online support groups for spouses online that are really just to chat, vent, and get assistance with things you don't know. You can always contact me with questions about the Army, and I can try and help in whatever way I can.
    Its good, you get housing instead of barraks, more money. But make sure the other is 100% faithful, because there is a HIGH divorce/cheating percentage in the military
    What kind of advice? It's hard, no doubt. You'll end up in some place you never ever wanted to be and you'll have to make all new friends. You'll probably have to run a household alone. The good thing though, is that it will make you stronger than you ever thought you could possibly be. I'm really grateful for that. Saying goodbye never gets any easier, but it makes your time together that more special. It takes a strong women to marry a military man...and an ever stronger one to stick it out for 20 years. Welcome to the club, it's a hell of a ride and you'll love it!
    ok, my sister and her husband were in the navy together, thats how they met, for the past 2 years she has been a stay at home mum now, and her husband only gets to see her every few months, they have a wonderful relationship, it will be hard, she has told me how much she misses my brother-in-law, but they get through it, just means they have a fantastic time when they see eachother, they make every second the best. you can do it, will get easier with time.
    plenty of people get married while in the military! as long as you are truely willing to commit to the person and not fall into temptation, you should be fine. congrats and god speed!
    Well, I used to be in the military and I can say that the only way a marriage would work is if you both have 100% trust in the other person.... There is going to be a lot of times that you two will be seperated, and this times can and will be for a long period of time. And the old saying is still true, ';out of sight out of mind';. If you understand that. There will be plenty of chances that this relationship could go wrong, and it would be in your best interests that you both know each other and are totally trusting of the other for this to work.
    OK%26lt; so what is the question?
    So what is her ';style'; of music? I find that funny
    My wife and I were both in the Army. It worked out fine, we had no problems. Our daughter and her husband are both in the Navy. They make real good money and really like their jobs. Its worked out great for our familys. Good Luck
    Good luck. Tough road to travel. Both of you need to be mature, dedicated and patient. If not, ......
    Your question isnt really clear, but any one who fights for their country deserves a medal of honor.

    Need your advice: I am planning a birthday party for my husband.?

    It will be his 34. Anyway I want to have it at a local bar. I am: renting a pool table and provide food .


    What should I do about the drinks. These guys can drink. So I don't want to pay for all the drinks or all the beer. They don't sell pitchers of beer either.


    Should I just pay for the 1st and 2nd round? Will that be good enough?Need your advice: I am planning a birthday party for my husband.?
    I think this whole idea is a potential disaster. While the odds may favor that everything will go fine, there is the possibility that someone gets in a wreck and somebody gets killled on the way home from the party. Having thrown the party and yet failed to provide a way home for the drunken guests may be enough to prove you liable for bankrupting-type damages. Personally, I would never host a party at a bar and I would never provide drinks to the party-goers.Need your advice: I am planning a birthday party for my husband.?
    put some money behind the bar then when its gone they can buy their own drinks i've done that a few times and it works pretty well
    One of the ways you can limit your expenses in the liquor dept. is to purchase ahead of time from the restaurant, a set amount of tickets . As each guest arrives, hand them 1-2 tickets and their first drink(s) are on you and the rest is up to them. You can also ask if the restaurant has what they would call a 'corking fee', meaning; you bring your own stuff and they will charge you a small amount for opening it there. If a corking fee suits you, you may add to the invitation a 'no gifts please' and BYOB.


    One last thing; go into his classmates.com account and invite people he talks about, but has not done anything about initiating communication.
    If it's at a bar you are not obligated to buy the drinks. Appetizers and snacks would be just fine. Have fun!
    I think you should just stick to providing the food. Anyone that goes to a birthday party in a bar, knows they are paying for their own drinks. Plus you are liable if you pay for the drinks. Actually, you would split the liability with the bar because they should know when to cut someone off. Just pay for you and your husbands drinks.





    Have Fun!
    I think you should have it somewhere where you can buy pitchers or have a pony keg
    Good idea on paying for just the first two rounds. Keep in mind that most of your hubby's friends will buy his drinks, so you know they won't come to the party expecting not to spend money.
    hell No just pay for your husbands drink cuz if folks know you paying they will order the most expensive thing they can buy opps i mean you can buy (get it) so just get your husbands
    Best idea is to choose a different venue that serves pitchers.





    Otherwise, go ahead and buy the first round, plus food. If no one abuses your hospitality by ordering a $25 cognac, go ahead and pay for a second round. After that they are on their own.





    As far as the guest list, try to refrain from being in control on this one. Let HIM decide the guest list. Otherwise you are inviting disaster.





    The good thing about having it at a bar is that you are not responsible for how much the guests drink. The bartender is. And when they get drunk and obnoxious, its not your job to throw them out.

    I need advice what can i do if i suspect my neighbor's are trapping my cats or worse?

    i moved in this house 5 months ago within 5 months 4 cats of mine are gone never to be seen again,3 males and 1 female.(all at different times) my cats were indoor/outdoor.they stayed in the yard and hung out, they wernt old or sick. my daughter lives up the rd from me and her male cat is not fixed and he always comes home.this is why i think its the people next door.they might not like my cats around. i need to know what i can do or can i contact someone.and i have looked in the pound too. please help me! pls no joking!I need advice what can i do if i suspect my neighbor's are trapping my cats or worse?
    Keep the cats inside when they are unsupervised, for their safety. There are bad people out there and you never know who they are, they won't admit it anyway.I need advice what can i do if i suspect my neighbor's are trapping my cats or worse?
    Well, if you had kept your cats inside this would never have happend.





    you need to have control of your cats AT ALL TIMES, keep them on YOUR property and if they are off your property you have to have them on a leash.





    Your neighbor, if he is killing these cats is deffinatly in the wrong for doing that, maybe he is taking them to the shelter so they can find a good loving home.
    It's either kids or pets that cause the most trouble between neighbors. Your cats might be digging up your neighbor's prize dahlias. Since they're out when you're not, it is hard to tell. The neighbors are within their rights to trap the cats and call animal control as long as the cats are on their property. Another possibility is someone else picking the cats up. Sometimes cats are trapped and sold to laboratories for experiments. It might help if you had a ';chip'; put on your cat, or you could keep them indoors. They sleep a lot anyway so probably would get over it.
    There could be multiple reasons --highly aggressive raccoons, dogs (ALL our strays here are deathly afraid of dogs) that wander and attack, owls (great horned owls kill skunks and rabbits, they can kill cats too), kids, and ANY neighbor in a 4 house area is suspect. If you have coyotes in your city, it's probably that....unfortunately coyotes eat household pets any chance they get. We have them in Milwaukee now and they've done a lot of damage here.





    I'd suggest talking to your neighbor over the weekend, just raising the subject that there don't seem to be any strays in the area, do they know what's going on. This keeps you from pointing a finger at them and they might share what they've been doing, if they're the ones doing it.





    I'd also make a report out with animal control, the humane society and possibly the police.





    Your best course of action is to build a backyard enclosure to keep your cats safe. After the second one failed to come home, that should have given you notice to keep them 100% inside in this environment. I'd be heartsick knowing four were missing.
    You know there are other ways for cats to come up missing than your neighbor's doing things to them.


    Like a busy road and wild animals.


    it would be my guess that since you are in a new area that the cats dont know and that you have no proof of anything else that your cats could have been taken by another animal in your area.
    Let your neighbor know your cats are missing. Ask them if they have seen them or seen any dogs around that could have hurt them. Check their reaction-are they concerned or indifferent? Their response can tell you alot. Put up missing signs and let the neighborhood know how much your cats mean to you. Go out with your cats if you let the others out anymore. If you still suspect your neighbor after talking with them mention that ';relocating'; cats is a crime and if any more of your cats go missing, you will have to involve the Humane Society. You have do this tactfully. Make it a statement rather than an accusation. Another suggestion is to go door to door and ask if anyone has seen them. A lady down my street found her missing kitty while walking through the neighborhood. A woman had taken her in as a stray. Finally, if your kitties came up missing at night, You may have a predator getting them. NEVER leave your cats outside at night. I'm sorry about your kitties.
    Definately microchip your cats, that way if they are being sold/given to a shelter, they are more likely to come home to you.
    keep your cats at home in the house where they belong and then you won't have to worry about it.


    i love cats, don't get me wrong - i have 9 of my own


    if my neighbors cat came into my yard, i wouldn't think twice about trapping it. i have asked him several times to keep his cat out of my yard, so he has been warned. i don't want someone else's cat coming into my yard, possibly spreading disease that i could carry in to my cats. they are strictly indoors - the closest they get to being outdoors except for going to the vet - is laying in the window seats that i have set up for them in almost every window in my house.

    Organic chemistry questions...any advice will be greatly appreciated!!?

    Can anyone help me draw these 2 compounds..





    2z,4z hexadiene and 2z4e hexadiene





    thank you for your help!Organic chemistry questions...any advice will be greatly appreciated!!?
    It would be easier to show if we could draw on here haha!





    Anyway, you start out by recognizing that the carbon chain is hexane (6 carbons). Second, you recognize that the ';diene'; tells you that there are two double bonds and finally you notice that the numbers and letters in front of the name tell you where the double bonds are and the stereochemistry. (z) means that the double bond is ';cis'; while (e) means that the double bond is ';trans. So, for 2z,4z, hexadiene, you would draw a hexane chain with double bonds between carbons 2-3, and carbons 4-5 drawing both of these double bonds ';cis';. The second compound would be drawn the same except the double bond between carbons 4-5 will be drawn trans. Draw it out and you'll see it's pretty simple!Organic chemistry questions...any advice will be greatly appreciated!!?
    The only difference between the two compounds is that in the first one, the ';z'; notation indicates that the high priority groups at position two's double bond termini are ';zusammen'; or on the same side of the double bond. (i.e. ';cis'; to each other).





    The ';e'; notation tells us that the high priority groups at the fourth position's double bond termini are ';entgegen,'; or in opposing positions relative the double bonded carbons they have between them. (i.e. ';trans'; to each other.)





    So, the 2z,4z hexadiene would look like this, roughly:





    \__/'''''''''\.





    While the 2z,4e hexadiene would look like this, roughly:


    ~~~__/


    \__/





    *All horizontal lines are double, pi bonds between carbons at 2 and 4 (with those at 3 and 5, respectively)


    *Ignore the little squiggles, they are just there to hold the spaces - only pay attention to the lines.





    Er... just go to the link and open the powerpoint.








    Best of luck!
