Speaking of things movies would have us believe: How many women are completely comfortable being naked around other women, even strangers?
|
Most movies would have us believe that a room full of women will get naked and no fucks would be given that day; that women become suddenly and brazenly comfortable with their bodies when in the presence of other women? Any truth to that?

Dog keeps peeing in my bed. After 2 years of doing it on-and-off, I've seen a correlation. It seems to be out of vengeance. Please, help. I don't know what to do.
|
My dog keeps peeing in the house despite treats and praise. She can be outside a half hour or 4 hours, and will come in and pee on the floor. Especially my room. I am not home a lot because of work and school, but my mother is home pretty much all of the time to let her out and give her attention.
She is about 2 and a half years old now. Since I got her, she has peed in my bed 5-6 times, and my mother's 3-4 times. Once, she even peed on my mother while she was in bed. She is healthy. I am pretty damn sure. There seems to be a correlation of her doing it and her not getting the desired amount of attention, despite being loved up and down for at least 10 minutes before I have to launch into work.
Please help. She also suffers from separation anxiety. I don't want to have to give her away because of this, but I've tried numerous things. I'm getting pretty depressed over this whole situation. I love her so much.
By the way, she is half-corgi and half-lab (we think).
Thank you for your help.

Girlfriend left her Gmail open at my house, confirmed she's still cheating on me. What should I do?
|
So to be brief, back in March my girlfriend admitted she liked a new friend of hers. We live together, and she was very obviously sneaking out at night and staying out all night. One time I caught her getting in his car. She denied anything but friendship, but one night she was texting like crazy, and I saw a few of them, she was calling the guy out about "using her". I confronted her, she broke down and cried and admitted to cheating. It was a rough emotional time, and we nearly broke it off and moved out, but we got through it, and everything was good... so I thought.
Anyway, last night she left her gmail open on my computer, and I couldn't help but check, and sure enough she's sending him e-mails saying "Glad I got to see you again last night, you're so handsome, I can come over again next week." Granted this isn't proof of fornication, but it's proof of an emotional affair where there once was fornication, and if she's sneaking off to his place and calling him handsome and meanwhile telling me she hates his guts and doesn't respond to his texts, I know what's going on.
I still have her e-mail open, and I'm trying to think of anything I can do to route the two of them into a confrontation. I know what has to be done, I have to tell her I saw the e-mails, that she broke my trust and that we can't be together anymore and that she has to move out. This guy has been especially evasive with me and I have always offered to peacefully talk about it, but when I've confronted him in person he lies to my face and then texts her insulting garbage about me, so yes I have somewhat of a vendetta and would at least like to get some vindication.
TL;DR Girlfriend left g-mail open on my computer, found confirmation of cheating, looking for good way to use this e-mail access situation to my advantage for non-violent confrontation and vindication.
EDIT: Did not expect so many responses. Will try to get to them, but I wrote this before leaving for work, and now I'm at work so I'll do what I can. All I have to say is thanks for the support everyone. I know a break up is necessary. She's a long-term girlfriend and that's why I gave it a second shot. I did and still do love her, but I realize she has problems that will make our relationship impossible to maintain and for the good of us both and because she has hurt and offended me I'm ending it.

Teaching puppy to run with you.
|
So I'm trying to teach my shepherd mix pup to eventually be able to go jogging with me ( he is too young to go distances due to his joints, I know ) but he has an issue.
Walking, he is okay. However as soon as we start going even a little above walking pace he starts to get fixated on biting at my leg and feet. If we stop moving he continues to want to growl and pounce at it.
Does anyone here have any ideas how to train him out of this behavior?

Pro-Regulation Libertarian
|
I'm a Pro-Regulation Libertarian or Compassionate Libertarian, which doesn't really exist. It's a brand new concept, to me and in general, so I'd appreciate your thoughts.
I want more regulation and rules than most libertarians do, I think there are tragedy of the commons situations, and non-economic personal motives, and free market failure as a result.
Individuals hate the free market and have incentive to ruin it. They like security for security's sake. Private schools give teachers tenure, even though it's bad for student education. Charities spend 70% of funding on overhead and administrative costs, and people don't realize that when they donate their money because charities don't have incentive to publicize that. People also discriminate against those different than themselves, and have a tendency to quash the minority and the minority viewpoint, so the government must protect the minority from the majority. The list goes on - there are many ways individual incentives are contrary to the public good. The same pressures go for businesses, they have incentive to hamstring each other in unethical ways, and indulge in unethical business practices, rather than merely cutting costs or producing better products. Government has to protect small businesses and the environment by restricting unfair competitive practices and pollution.
So we need government to be a referee, to say: these are the rules, now follow them. Then people have economic incentive to make each other follow the rules, and the courts (not government) enforces those rules. And THAT is why the Founders said that a good Democracy relies on lawyers (to protect individual rights under the law), but ALSO a small government (whose job is just to say: these are what the rules are, now follow them).
As a result, I believe in a uni-payer healthcare system (universal vouchers) with a private system (private health insurance companies and private hospitals).
I also believe in a uni-payer education system (universal vouchers) with a private system - but would combine that with laws that prohibit discrimination and in other ways increase equal opportunity.

Considering getting started in rentals. Advice?
|
My wife & I are considering getting started in residential rentals. I.e., something like a 4-6 unit property. We'd likely live in one unit for 4-5 years, and later move into a single family home. (We'd obviously then rent out the unit we'd occupied.)
The motivation is that I have access to capitol, and as a stay at home mom, she'd be available to do the rental management. (Her dad also has experience as a handyman, which should be helpful too.)
That said, neither of us have any direct experience with rentals. We're willing to do a lot of leg work before jumping in, so I'm looking for advice on how to get started. This includes:
- "Must read" or good books & articles
- Popular websites & forums relating to rentals
- Personal experience & advice
Thanks in advance!

DAE create enemies in their head that don't exist in order to motivate themselves?
|
I often find myself creating these made up people who insult me and tell me what I can and can't do. I think things like "they said I couldn't do it, I'll show them." In turn, it makes me work harder to improve myself. It sometimes leads me to get mad at the world for no reason, but I think it helps to motivate me. I've heard somewhere that a lot of professional athletes do the same thing to create an "us against the world" mentality in order to push themselves harder.

Do women really believe that men opting out of marriage is because they are lazy?
|
I have read many articles saying that men that choose single-hood are lazy, boorish, childish, and all around undesirable. Yet the women that choose single-hood are to be commended.
What causes the complete 180 in attitude? A lot of men are opting out of marriage because they either A.) feel that it can overall be detrimental, both financially and emotionally, or B.) find that they don't need a marriage license to say they can live with their spouse.
Are men REALLY to blame for the decline of the marriage institution?

I'm a bit of a competitive person in my relationship, and I realize it's not a good thing, but I don't know how to avoid feeling this way.
|
I'm a 22 year old male engaged to a 23 year old female. Honestly, I have no real qualms with her. Nothing major, anyway. I think that a majority of our troubles have come from my end, and the frustrating part is that even though I can see it, I don't know how to stop it.
On one hand, we have her: she's successful in almost everything she does. We're both writers. She published her first book and instantly got a ton of support and amazing feedback. It just seems like anything she tries, she gets right the first time -- quickly, and with little effort. On the other hand, there's me. I've been working my butt off for years trying to further my hobbies in any sort of way, but I have to fight tooth and nail to get even a fraction of what she has accomplished. People just don't seem to care.
The problem with this is that I start to feel discouraged and down, and that as a result I've kind of become determined to 'win' at something. I've admitted to feeling jealous, but I've made it clear to her that I don't want to ask her to change what she's doing for me; it wouldn't be fair, and my goal isn't to steal the spotlight or give me any sort of bragging rights. I just want to sort of make myself feel that I can do something right, if that makes any sense. Constantly being second place (out of two people, mind) in pretty much every single thing we ever do is discouraging.
But it really puts me in a bad mood sometimes, and she can sense it. I don't want her to change anything, and I want to be there and show my support regardless, but damnit I can't stop feeling competitive over things that require no competition. Stuff that should be fun, stuff I should do for enjoyment, has turned into kind some quest to prove myself to myself, to validate myself somehow. I'm tired of no one caring about anything I do, but I also don't want to make her feel like that's more important than my appreciation for her and how proud I am of what she's accomplished.
tl;dr: Tired of being 'beaten' at everything, starting to feel competitive about everything to the point where it's affecting my mood, not sure how to stop.
I really appreciate any insight.

Why does my friend smell of sesame?
|
A couple of week ago I noticed that one of my friends, who I recently discovered smokes (a lot) if it makes any difference, started smelling of sesame oil. I noticed when she sad next to me on the bus but thought I was just imagining it, however as the days have gone by I decided I was sure it was her who smelt of sesame oil, also she isn't the kind of person that would use it for cooking in the mornings. Can anyone think of a plausible reason why?

How to stay relevant in the late-game as Nature's Prophet?
|
Prophet is my favorite, most played hero but also the one that I have the worst win-loss ratio with. I do great early/mid game setting up tons of ganks and teleing around to protect our towers and push, but then late game I feel useless.
It seems like later in the game I just don't do enough damage and die too quickly to be effective in teamfights, and if I try to push lanes my team ends up just getting stomped 4v5, does anyone have suggestions on how to keep being a threat in the late game and carry my early/mid game momentum into more wins?

I got annoyed with students constantly destroying headphones, and decided to take out my frustration on the teachers.
|
So I mailed them all...
I have new headphones in the computer suite.
These are the rules. I will expect you to enforce them for your classes. There’ll be a test later.
The headphones live on the plinth of the monitor. They do not need to be hung on the monitor. They are not to be left anywhere on the desk. They live on the plinth of the monitor.
The headphones do not EVER need to be unplugged. DO NOT LET THE CHILDREN UNPLUG THE HEADPHONES.
The microphone is not to be twisted round. YOU WILL NEED TO WATCH FOR THIS. The children do NOT look “cool” with the microphone by their mouths. Ensure they are aware of this.
The cables have been shortened by use of a cable twisty, which the children will attempt to remove. DO NOT ALLOW THIS. The cable twisty stays on the cable.
The sounds do not ever need to be muted. If the children do not want to hear sounds, the simple solution is to NOT TOUCH THE HEADPHONES. If the sound is too loud, there is a scrolly wheel on the headphone cable. Discourage its use. Encourage the removal of the headphones and their return to the monitor plinth.
At the end of each lesson the children must put the headphones back on the plinth of the monitor.
I expect it’s become obvious that I’m losing patience with the destruction of headphones. PLEASE ensure that you discourage use of the headphones unless the lesson requires their use.
I have spoken to SOME children. I will continue to nag them incessantly until the message gets through. Feel free to join me in a therapeutic nagging session.
Yours - ChoppingOnionsForYou

My mum has been looking for this book for a while and I told her I'd ask you all about it. She's now 53 and would've read it when she was about 13. Here's a description that she typed out:
Girl in motorbike accident suddenly transported to new identity as old poor woman walking through forest looking for acorns. Finds beautiful fox tail and takes it home, thinking she can sell it. Fox comes to her home and starts stalking her. It is no ordinary fox and its intentions are clearly malevolent. Suddenly she is back in her own identity in hospital but realises the fox has followed her and inhabits the bodies of people around her i.e. the nurse.

What are my rights as a short term renter? Realized I'm way overpaying and management is shitty.
|
I signed a lease from July to September and recently realized I'm ridiculously overpaying (probably close to double than what I should be). On top, management is shitty at fixing things. There have been items I've asked for to get fixed since the beginning of my stay that still haven't gotten done.
Is there any way I can get out of the lease?
They haven't done anything to break the contract, though they did enter my place without permission. They asked for it when I was out on vacation. Then came in the next day when I hadn't responded yet. This wasn't specified in the contract but I know there's sometimes a law requiring them to get permission or give me long enough notice. Not sure if this breaches it.

So I just got scammed for 40s...Let me serve as a warning to the rest of you.
|
I was perusing around Lion's Arch as usual when I read someone was selling 15-slot invisible bags and 18-slot bags.
Since I've recently had inventory and bank overflowing issues, I decided I was gonna take the plunge and shell out some money for a decent bag. I whisper the guy, and make a deal for 40s for the 15-slot bag. Little steep for me, but I said whatever.
So once we both agreed to the terms, I went ahead and **sent the money first**. As soon as I sent the 40s, the bastard logged off and I haven't seen his face on Guild Wars 2 again since the incident. I believe he may have blocked me. I obviously reported him, and tried contacting him through an alt character to no avail.
Please be careful with the mail system, guys. I'd hate to see someone get cheated out of more than a simple 40s. I'm not that mad, I've got a few gold pieces already but this kind of shit is unacceptable. Hopefully Anet gets wind of this guy's report because I bet he's done it to multiple people.

Were Jews just a scapegoat for the Nazis or were they somewhat responsible for the loss of WWI?
|
**I am not a holocaust denier and I believe that the extermination of innocent people including Jews during WWII was a horrendous act that never should've happened**
Hitler blamed the Jews for Germany's defeat in WWI. Hitler gained power from this idea and it seemed like a lot of people agreed with him. Is this just mindless anger where the German people had to blame something for their defeat? Or did the Jews legitimately undermine the war effort and bring the country into poverty?
I have limited knowledge on this topic and was hoping a few can fill me in.
I've heard maybe the reason Hitler hated Jews is that he saw them absorbed in self-interest and wealth and weren't as patriotic as most and were the cause of the homefront failure.

Enriched vs Depleted Uranium and War
|
Earlier this month was the anniversary of the Hiroshima bombing, in which a highly-enriched Uranium atomic bomb was used in war. Fast forward to modern day, military weapons feature depleted Uranium.
Given the understanding that nuclear warfare is not something we want on this planet, why is one version of uranium allowed to be used and not the other? Furthermore, are there large differences in effect; both short term and long term.
Edit: If you could explain the technical differences in a simple manner I'd think you were pretty cool.

Was thinking either; Tequila (great for shots), Malibu (good for sharing/long drinks, not so good for shots), or Apple Sourz/Puckers (but this seems not enough and kind of lame). Any ideas Reddit?!
Also I personally don't drink wine/beer, which so far everyone I've asked has suggested!

orgasm help for me and my gf

hey reddit.
first sorry if my english is not perfect but i think thats not a problem?
now to the problem.
me and my girlfriend share a problem, we cant reach an orgasm during sex. we start with me going down on her till she orgasms and then i put my penis inside her (duh) and we start to fuck. we tried everything we saw on the internet that may help us but it wont.
i can get till the point that my orgasm is near but i cant cum or reach it without pulling out and grab my penis an rub it, if i dont do that it starts to hurt behind the penis and above the "ballsack" (again sorry).
my girlfriend is different if she is about to orgasm ( what is rare) i need to pull my penis out and she needs to press her legs together.
and another problem is that she dont feel my penis inside her, we tried much different positions but it wont help, my penis is not small its about 7" (or 17cm).
so r/sex whats our problem?

Mods of HiphopHeads, What has happened? No more freedom of speech in this subreddit?
|
Posts that are specifically designed to bash an artist/fanbase
ok.. so we can't talk about rappers unless it's positive? or unless we didn't create the post with that intention? That whole if you ain't got nothing nice to say don't say nothing at all is bullshit. If a post is popular a post should be popular. Thats why we have upvotes and down votes right?
But now we have mod's who turned this place into a shithole.
This is some conspiracy shit right here.
Beefing is a big part of what goes on in Hiphop there have been Beefs all throughout the history of hiphop. Why should we not be able to Beef among ourselves on this simple subreddit? That's why we have freedom of speech in some countries is so we can debate and point out facts others may have not noticed. Just the fact that certain people feel a certain way about certain rappers may be of interest to many hiphopheads.
Instead this subreddit has turned into a Facebook feed of people plugging bands, essentially free advertising. So you may say, GTFO then, and indeed. I will.

Which fight are you more exited to see? Donair v Arce or Kahn v Molina?
|
Hi, fightfans. Today we have 2 semi-big fights. A toss up and a mismatch. Which fight are you most exited to see?
Donaire v Arce: Mismatch, we saw what Donaire did to Nishioka, and this shouldn't be any different. Nothing really exiting should happen.Donaire by Stoppage round 7
Khan v Molina: Kahn looking to make his comback, leaving behind his old trainer Freddy Roach and joining up with Virgil Hunter.Kahn is known for fighting off-balance and leaving himself wide open, I'd be interesting to see if Kahn listens to his new coach and changes his approach. Khans Glass chin always makes things unpredictable, because of that I'm not calling it a mismatch. If Molina knocks him out, it'll be something you don't wanna miss. Everyone loves an upset.
That's my opinion, what's yours?
Edit: Well, that Donaire fight was even worse than I said it would be.
Edit: Kahn is doing really good. Calm and short flurries.

Does good exist? How? My Response leaves the instructor to only nod
|
So I went to my first ethics class... For some context: the instructor tells us of the conversation of Socrates and Euthyphro where Socrates is questioning what the gods say is good. My instructor then draws a mountain where gods are in the clouds and two arrows branch off to the side to represent the two goods Socrates mentions. One being what gods love making it therefore good and the other being the gods seeing good in the world and loving it for that reason. She then asks us which is true and then removes gods from the clouds and puts humans signifying that we are the ones who define good. It was a long debate where people were going back and forth as to how we define good and the same thing back and forth to the point where I chimed in with: "There is no definable good, it is always changing and evolving as we do. We once believed owning a slave to be okay and now we don't. Some people still think gays and wrong and should go to hell while others have made their own view of gays being perfectly normal. Even atheists, the most hated people in the world are progressively becoming accepted. Good is dynamic and always changing no matter what anyone's god says"
**TLDR: Does good exist? I silence the class's debate with my reply**

What are your short term goal rewards?

I'm trying to set up a small rewards system for myself when reaching short term goals. I tend to lose motivation to keeping my diet during my cut when things get tough at work, customer service supervisor(I get yelled at a lot), and I need to calm myself down. It getting hard to resist getting a snickers or something, mainly because I haven't set up any thing to reward myself when I reach my goals. So I'm asking, what are your short term goals?
I'm thinking of keeping saving 25 per paycheck for myself to reward myself with non-food items(i.e:New shoes, dress shirt). First short term reward after one month, second short reward goal after 2 months and so one, getting progressively higher reward.

What is the most underappreciated band you know, and why should they get attention?
|
I'll start with Alcest. A french death/proge/shoe/black whatever-band. As a metal fan, I fell in love with these guys immediately and I don't think they got the attention they deserve. Tell us what's your band that hasn't gotten the attention they should have?
Oh yeah, and why should this band deserve attention: Because they make music I can fall asleep to, in a good way.

Are movies being removed from Netflix streaming?
|
I swear movies I have seen on there before are no longer available. I am not talking about new releases either. Movies like Blazing Saddles...
If this continues, I see less and less reason to stay with Netflix. I now have to resort to torrenting these...

Civic Hybrid 2003 manual, no longer shifts into gear but will barely crawl if I stay on the gas? What happened!? (x-post)
|
I drive a Honda Civic Hybrid 2003 manual transmission, 175k miles, and believe me when I say it has been taken care of like a BABY! Dealer maintained since it was new.
That being said, I've never done any work on the transmission. There was little sign this problem was setting in, but it would start to slip out of gear as I was going along the road with my foot on the gas, more often under a load like uphill or something.
Today, It won't even settle into gear. If I shift into reverse, and almost FLOOR it, it will slowly start to creep. If I shift to any forward gear, it will do the same thing except forward, I can't gain speed and it maybe crawls at 5 mph.
My lack of experience with manual transmission function and repair leaves me completely confused on what to do and what is likely wrong. Maybe I have to rebuild the clutch? Could I probably do that? I've got mechanical experience, I'd be confident to try if you guys think I could.
Thanks for the advice guys!

Walking Dead and expired playstation plus
|
Ok hopefully somebody can clarify this for me.
I has PS+ and downloaded Walking Dead Ep 1&2. I beat them both then bought Ep3.
Then my PS+ subscription ran up and could no longer play Walking Dead, even though I had bought Ep 3.
I still have Walking Dead installed on my PS3. If I buy a new subscription to PS+ then will I be able to pick up on episode 3 AND still have my saved data from ep1&2 carry over?
Thanks

Hello, I'm 16 year old girl going on 17 soon and I was wondering on how I would go about getting a part-time job at disney? I'm mostly interested in just typical cast member work, and I'm not sure how many fields there are. I would also be interested in some face character, working with kids and such, but how would I get experience for that (or make myself stand out from the pack)? All answers are welcome.

What the HELL is with websites not having pictures of people wearing the clothes?
|
Three jackets I'm very interested in (though I've seen many, many more) have pictures of the jacket on their website, but *no one wearing it.* I understand that having someone wear it means having a model, but none of these companies aren't exactly high fashion, so honestly just some guy who doesn't have some horrific facial disfigurement would do.
* 1
* 2
* 3
I don't think it's asking that much. Here is an example of how simple it is. The guy clearly isn't that built, and probably not a crazy expensive model. It doesn't even have his face in it! He's just some dude wearing the damned jacket.
Unless they're actively trying to hide something, it seems like a bad business plan to me. You hire a guy once (or even use some guy from your company), have him put on each item once, take pictures. If one of those jackets (well, between (1) and (3) anyway) had a model and the other one didn't, there's a very good chance I would buy the one that had a picture of it on someone.
tl;dr: Clothing website owners: have goddamn pictures of people wearing your clothes.

I just got my first pair of crystal poi (yay) and am loving them! 2 questions:

2. How long should I cut my poi at? I have it about from my chest to my arm completely stretched out. It still feels a litte long though, but I'm scared of cutting it too short.

I may be falling in love with one of my flatmates while studying abroad, how can I go about this?
|
So I recently got to my study abroad location in Barcelona and am living with four girls and another guy. But one of my flat mates just so happens to be the best girl I think I've ever met. I came into Spain with the intention of meeting a bunch of different women, but I didn't expect to be living with somebody like her. I just want to know what I should do, I would really like to form a deep relationship with her but am not sure how to go about it with the timing and the whole living situation. I just don't want to miss out on her, please help me out Reddit!
EDIT: So I've slowly been working on this the past couple of days but I find that I may need some more help. Until posting this I suspended all forms of hitting on her for fear of blowing it. But now that I want to go for it I don't know how exactly I should work my way into it. Do I try to take her out on dates or something or just try to flirt with her more around the apartment? I also am not sure what kind of kino I should be throwing into there. Any more help would be greatly appreciated!

How can you efficiently raise the periapsis of a hyperbolic orbit?
|
This hasn't been as much of a problem since the introduction of patched conics, but I'm still interested in it from a theory perspective.
Suppose you're coasting towards the mun with the intention of establishing an orbit. When you enter the SOI, you find yourself on a course that intercepts the surface.
Normally, you'd thrust prograde to raise the periapsis, but that feels inefficient, here, since you already have escape velocity.
Is there any way to transpose the orbit with a vertical (away from Kerbin) burn?

So I just had a flashback to when I went to my first temple dedication as a Deacon...
|
Of course at the time I bought into the whole, "this church is now an extension of the holy temple," BS. And I remember sitting through the whole thing and wondering why I was required to bring a white handkerchief. When David A Bednar took the stand and instructed us that we needed wave our handkerchiefs in the air back and forth and chant "Hosana, Hosana, to God and The Lamb," three times... I remember thinking to myself "WHAT?! That's what these are for?" I think that was the first time I started to understand I was part of a God Damn cult. Now as a freshmen in college, I have really grown to wonder how no one else in the church sees these things as, at the very least, extremely odd, if not absolutely ritualistic and cult-like. Anyone else have any similar experiences?

Hey r/Tekkit, I'm going to start up a public Tekkit server. I want your opinions on how to make it perfect for you!
|
Hello r/tekkit! I'm making a new Tekkit server (Been playing a private one w/friends for a while, want more buddies in tekkit :D) and I want you guys to vote on exactly what you want it to be. I'm not going to make it an exact voting format, and I'm just going to guess that the top upvoted comment is the most preferred choice, but here's some "brackets" to steer you in the right direction.
I want you to explain your opinion about:
- PvP, PvE, Survival, Peaceful?
- EE2 disabled, lotta restrictions, or 100% on?
- Ranks to get higher tier equipment?
- What sort of "spawn" should there be? (I.E Player-made shops, public machines)
- Any other suggestions.
Thank you for reading this, you rock! Don't forget to comment with your opinions on this. An upvote for this would be nice too, since it is a self post and I get more Karma. I want this server to be perfect for you guys!
EDIT: Ok guys, I think I have a clue of what it's going to be!
It's most likely going to be PvP, with a random spawn into the world within a 7K block radius.
There will be a central spawn at 0,0 with machines, but it's a dangerous trip there.
Just thinking of some more stuff. Thanks for the feedback!

Say you have a basketball sized sphere that is 100% transparent, but it's surface also emits a soft white light, not unlike an iPod screen.

Can anyone remember a cat and mouse puzzle/strategy game from the 90s?
|
It is a game I played as a child. It involves a puzzle where you need to create a way for the cat to get to the mouse, or for the mouse to somehow kill the cat. You start with a screen with a certain setup, and there are items you can put on the screen. Once you're satisfied with your setup, you can begin the simulation and the mouse and cat will react accordingly, e.g. if the cat sees a ladder it will run towards it, and if the mouse sees a block of cheese it will run towards it, hopefully initiating a chain reaction to complete the mission objective.
It is not rodent's revenge. The graphics are more cartoony.
If anyone has any idea of what this game may be, I would really appreciate it. My own searches have been to no avail.

New: Defensive Gun Use Subreddit
|
Gunnit, help us keep tabs on the legitimate uses for guns. /r/dgu is a new subreddit for cataloging incidents of defensive gun use. We've already added a bunch of news articles to get things started. What we're looking for:
* Posts should primarily be direct links to news articles describing the incident.
* Articles regarding defensive gun use statistics are also welcomed, as are stories of DGUs gone wrong, or incidents where the defensive gun user had no business pulling the trigger.
* Copy the headline from the article. Don't make stuff up or editorialize.
* Note the city/state if it's not part of the article's title.
* Local news sources are best. If an interesting topic is discussed in a blog, HuffPo, AmmoLand, etc. look for the link to the original news article. Off-topic and opinion pieces will be considered for deletion.
If you happen to come across a story of a DGU in your daily browsing, drop by and post. We need as many contributors as possible to make this a viable go-to source for objective information on the use of guns to save lives.

Monday my best friend's son (like a son to me) almost died. The next day his newborn was admitted to the Children's hospital and on Wednesday my 17 year old daughter told me she is pregnant. Anyone else care to vent about a "hell week"?
|
So, yeah, a week-from-hell. I am hoping that posting here and reading other hell-week stories will help me take my mind off of the craziness that has been my life this week!
I am called other-mother by my best friend's son and daughter-in-law and I love them like they are my own children. Monday morning I get a call from my other-daughter that her husband will not wake up and can I come right away. She had tried calling my best friend, but she was not answering. As I am rushing there I am trying to call my best friend and finally get her to answer. Horribly, I had to tell her what was going on with her son. :(
I get to the house just as the EMT's are loading my other-son into the ambulance. We get the baby's things together and I drive them to the hospital. The EMT's radioed ahead to the hospital that he would be DOA, but amazingly they were able to revive him. Apparently he had a bad reaction to some new medication he was prescribed.
I took the baby home with me so that my other-daughter could stay at the hospital and care for my other-son. The next afternoon she came to get the baby (she was missing her terribly) so they could go home for a bit and nap. When they awoke late that afternoon, the baby was running 103.5 and she had a seizure. She rushed little one to the Children's hospital where she was promptly admitted. They diagnosed her with a raging kidney/bladder infection and kept her for observation.
The next day my 17 year old daughter tells me that she is pregnant. My ex is pushing her to have an abortion and that is not what she wants. She is trying to weigh her options but the baby's father has very strong opinions and is making them well-known. She is confused and scared and mad at herself for making such poor choices. I am disappointed and was mad for a minute, but I am trying to not to dwell on those feelings as it is pointless. What is done is done and now we have to do what is best for that little one and her feeling stress from my disappointment is not helpful. I still cannot help but mourn (in private) the loss/temporary setback of her life goals. She had been working so hard to get into a good college. :(
Yesterday both my other-son and his newborn were released with a good prognosis. My daughter saw a doctor and is on prenatal vitamins and I am going to be a grandma again in April of next year.
I am feeling better just having typed all this out. Thanks Reddit!
**TL;DR Kids having a rough week and I am trying to avoid a nervous breakdown!**

[Help] Got my first job but every time I think about going in on that first day I have a panic attack.
|
I'm 18 and just got my first job at Domino's. Every single time I think about going in to work I think about having to take orders and having people watching me make pizzas or whatever and I start crying and panicking. My heart is racing and my hands are shaking just thinking about it. I have enough issues just going to class and being in a room full of people. Now they're depending on me to do things and do them right while being observed. I know I'm going to shake and turn red which makes everything worse. And I keep thinking that if I make an appointment with a psychiatrist RIGHT THIS MINUTE I could maybe get in before I start and have them give me something to calm myself down. I've never taken anything for my anxiety before though. I just used to go to a psychologist and "talk it out" (even though that never really helped). I've even been thinking about just getting someone to give me Xanax but I know that's terrible to do and I wouldn't actually do it. I'm just desperate.
I don't know what to do and I start soon. I almost don't even want to go in but I have to.
Edit: I forgot to put the [Help] thing in the title. D: Oops. I guess this could be [Help] or [Rant]. I think I really need help though.

Alright, time for the age-old question:
Unknown Pleasures(1979) vs Closer(1980)
|
I hear a lot off people say Closer is a more intimate experience, and it's a lot deeper and more beautiful. Although I do agree with this, I believe that Unknown Pleasures is an all-together better put-together album, and I catch myself listening to it quite a bit more. Peter Hook himself states that "Unknown Pleasures was Joy Division at its best", and that by the time Closer came around, they were too worried about Ian's health.
I vote Unknown Pleasures as better. I like it, the opening track, Disorder, is so good as an opener, and it has a strong mid-section, especially the 5th, 6th, and 7th tacks right after eachother (New Dawn Fades, She's Lost Control, Shadowplay). And it also, each song is a great song by itself.
Closer is a beautiful album when listened to as a whole, but each song really doesn't hold that much power on their own, although I do admit Twenty-Four Hours and Decades are really nice.
Thoughts?

What if Henry Clay and Andrew Jackson failed to resolve the Nullification Crisis? I understand President Jackson was willing to use force to enforce the laws passed by the Federal Gov't. What would the Civil War look like in 1832? Does the industrial advantage in the North remain substantial? Do railroads play a decisive role?

Don't they have a moral obligation to point out the disservice he's doing for medicine, even if the school does gain some cachet from having a famous alumni?

I worked for a year buying houses at public auction in the US. I've bought over 50 houses and the company I worked for has purchased thousands.

Converting an analog guitar signal to digital.
|
Hello Everyone,
I am currently working on a digital electronics project (a digital guitar tuner) and I need to convert the signal from my guitar into a clean digital signal. Does anyone have any experience with this? I plan on using an arduino for the signal processing, I just need a way of converting the guitar signal.
Thank You! Also, any other comments regarding the project (suggestions, cool things to try) are also appreciated.

Light armor or the Mage Armor perk?
|
Hello fellow Dovahkiin, quick armor question. My character is kind of a mage/sword wielder, my main perk trees are one-handed, alchemy, enchantment, destruction, and alteration. What I can't decide is if I should invest perks in light armor or the "mage armor" section of alteration.
Wearing light armor is obviously more convenient than casting a flesh spell every 60 seconds, but with the right robe I'd have some serious magic regen; running out of magic seems to be an issue with light armor. Also I heard that you can't enchant armor with magic regen more than 10% which is way less than what you'll find on some robes. However since I'm into alchemy as well, perhaps I could just have light armor and also have lots of magic potions on me as well.
Thoughts? Opinions? Anyone else with a similar character build that ended up going one way or the other?
Edit: Alright I've decided to go with the light armor route. However, instead of investing in light armor perks right now, I'm going to invest in the enchanting tree to get my magic regen up as high as possible. I don't want to give up my eleven armor...

How to explain being genderqueer?
|
Okay, so I frequent chatrooms quite often and am of course asked "ASL" a lot by people. I just recently came out to most of the regulars on there that I am genderqueer, but I have a hard time explaining to them what it is, because for me it's just a gut feeling type of thing. What is a quick and easy way to explain what it is?

Just held a lit cigarette.
|
My sister needed me to hold her lit cigarette for her just now. It felt like it was the most natural thing I could ever be doing. I handed it off to her friend to hold before I caved. I was not prepared for how awesome it would feel to hold one and I'm glad I had enough sense to hand it off. Phew!

TIL my companions gain new abilities without telling you and are disabled by default
|
When I first customized my UI, I immediately enabled the second center bar, which is where the expanded companions' abilities bar would go. Naturally, I've never expanded that bar...until recently by accident. As it turns out, my companions had basically half of its abilities available but disabled for autocast as well as stances. I'm figuring these are the abilities they learn over time as the loading screen tips mentioned. I'm in my 40s and I've been using the same set of abilities that come when you first get the companion.
This was somewhat akin to realizing that the skill trainer had a second tab at the bottom.

I have come to the conclusion that I hate Josh Freeman.
|
Having Doug Martin on my team and watching Josh Freeman throw four incomplete passes in a row is disheartening. Also, why not just run the ball on 3rd and 1? How is it even possible to throw this many interceptions, talk about killing the drive. Josh Freeman is the bane of Doug Martin's career.

Looking for good absinthe in Prague.
|
Hi everyone, my first post.
So next weekend, I'll be in Prague. Can anyone local, or someone who's been there before, recommend to me a good brand of absinthe that I can buy there for a decent price? Also, where should I go to buy it in order not to get ripped off as a tourist? How much should your recommended brand cost, approximately?
I should note that I have practically zero experience, and only today did I realize my cliché misconceptions about absinthe by reading the Absinthe 101. I always thought that "Czech absinthe" was the "real stuff", hallucination-inducing and whatnot. Now I realized that's not true, but I still believe I should be able to get a good bottle of absinthe in Prague. All help aprreciated! Thanks!
tl;dr: What's a good bottle of absinthe I can buy in Prague, and where?

Suggested reading list for someone interested in 20th century Popular Culture?
|
Greetings,
Having checked the FAQ, sidebar and both Master Reading lists, I feel it is appropriate to ask my question.
I have always been a fan of popular culture, whether it be movies, music, TV shows; or events, actions and decisions that shaped how the world has come to be what it is in the 20th century.
Does anybody have any suggestions for reading material on such subjects. To keep in line with the subreddit rules, I am only requesting readings about Pre-1992 popular culture events and changes.
I have a list below of books that I will eventually get around to buying once I have the cash for them. Hopefully these books can give you a better idea of what type of readings I am looking for.
Cheers!

[TOMT] [TV cartoon] A 80's/90's toon that happened in prehistoric times
|
At the end of one of our TMNT tapes as a kid, there was also an extra episode of this particular show I'm asking about. This was in the very early 90's but it's very possible that the show is somewhat older. As I only ever saw this one episode, there's unfortunately not much to go on.
The show happened in prehistoric times or during the stone-ages. There seems to have only one main character, who had long and unruly blond hair and only wore a loincloth and possibly some fur boots. He wielded a primitive spear or knife.
There was also another character, which I think was his enemy. He had black hair and possibly some beard/mustache (the other was cleanshaven) and I remember those two fighting. I think the black haired one was killed by falling off a waterfall.
The blond hero also battled some animals. Maybe that was just during the intro, but there were some jaguars or cheetahs, I think, or maybe even sabretooths.
The art-style was along the lines of Thundercats, He-Man or Jonny Quest. The blond guy was very bulky. The overall feel for the show seemed somewhat serious/epic/dramatic, it wasn't a comedy.
I have one very vivid image. The hero had a small knife, basically just a rough flint with some straps on, and he spun it on a small, round thing, possibly a tree stub. The POV was straight on top and I think the circle gradually changed into some other round object, like the sun. I think when the knife stopped, the blond hero followed its direction and ran away. This might've been from the intro.
Now, one other thing is, that I think this might be French (or Belgian/Swiss?). I can actually remember the tune of the intro song, and I somehow get the feeling it might be in French, even though I can't be sure as I was just a small kid, I might be making this up. I also think the title was something like Rohan or something similar, although obviously not that. Again, just a very vague memory.
I actually remember finding the intro to the cartoon on YouTube years ago, probably near the birth of the website, but I've been unsuccessful finding it again. Does anyone recognize this? :)

Question on Shelf Life of albuterol inhaler
|
My son found some expired albuterol inhaler. This is the good stuff and he was quite excited to find a small stash. He has not liked any of the news since the long time albuterol inhaler was tossed out for CO2 issues.
One of these expired in 06 and the other 08.
What is the half life of effectivness??
Should they be tossed?
Can he take it?

Unable to play lecture .mp3's supplied by university. Any ideas?
|
For an online class, the professor recorded a few .mp3's that play fine on my computer (via Windows Media Player). I can't get them to play at all on my Galaxy S3.
I get this error using Google Play Music:
"Music Playback error. Couldn't play the track you requested."
I've also tried to play them using the Amazon MP3 player and the Sound player (came with the S3), with no luck. Is there something I should be looking for in the file properties that could be causing this?

How do you import an NMR spectra into Word
without having to scan?
|
I'm finishing up my thesis and I'm having trouble including the NMR spectra. I've tried saving the spectra as pdfs then taking a screenshot of that but the lines are too thick to see the splitting. I've tried saving the spectra as jpegs, but the lines are too faint after importing them into word. I'd hate to scan every print-out because I have over 100 compounds to include in my thesis. I've tried playing with GIMP photo editing software, and can't improve the image quality. Can anyone please help?

copy of product criticism I just sent Bodum
|
Anyone else have a problem with Bodum products? Both my Pebo and Chambord broke very easily and I'm tired of replacing them - they're not cheap. Below is a message I've sent to Bodum regarding this issue, and I hope I'm not alone in this, because then I'm just a clumsy idiot that can't have nice things. I don't recall anything else in my kitchen breaking so easily though.
>First, I'd like to say that your products create the very best home coffee I've ever had. Both your Pebo and french press brew excellent coffee, and have been integral to having a good day.
>Unfortunately, they're exceptionally fragile. After replacing the Pebo vacuum top four times, at $60 for each, I decided I needed something a little more study. I bought the Chambord 12-cup french press, and life was good again. Until, while washing it the other day, the glass broke and separated in my hands and cut me. Only small cut, and I'll heal, but I have to complain about the fragility of your products. I don't know what kind of glass you use, but to make the Pebo so fragile, when it's going to be used by sleepy and uncoordinated people, is a dick move. I am deeply disappointed that the Chambord doesn't seem to be any better, and I don't see how, in good conscience, you can sell a product that will shatter in someone's hand while washing. Might I recommend using something tougher, such as Gorilla glass or Pyrex?
>In summary, your products create fantastic coffee but have zero life expectancy, are expensive to replace, and I must recommend against their purchase to my friends.
