Help, I've got something going on/????
Comments (16)I wanted to address part of your question I neglected and that was about the error nerd, please stay away from that site and applications it is RED listed on WOT so definitely not a place you want to go to or download from. You should not leave anything in the cd or dvd drives unless they are being used, when not being use take them out asap. and definitely keep away from any registry cleaners and I would really urge caution to your mother if she is using them, we see computers that are so screwed up after people use registry cleaners with out the proper knowledge and usually the only recourse is to wipe clean and reformat. Also just because a pc is new and the components are new does not mean they can not go bad, some are bad on arrival, and I have had to change the cd/dvd on several computers, when you use them repeatedly they do generate a lot of heat, so anytime you will be burniing try to space it out so as not to keep it continually running for long periods you want to keep the heat down, heat is a real killer. The model you have is very compact so has even less air flow space inside, keep it cool, I put a little fan on my desk that blows directly on mine to help keep things cool. Getting the dust out is good, you can use the canned air to help blow out dust also. the link at the bottom is the WOT rating page for that nerd site, you might want to add WOT to your browsers it is a super helpful tool.

Comments (15)Our cat, Heather, has small-cell lymphoma requiring pilling of prednisolone twice a day and a chemo pill four days out of 21. The first pred was purchased from the vet, 60 pills for $20.70 plus tax. I decided to check PetMeds and the cost for 100 pills, including shipping, was $26.00. I placed my order on a Friday and on the following Monday got an email from PetMeds saying they hadn't received the script from the vet yet. Called the vet and they told me they hadn't received a request from PetMeds. So called PetMeds and they said they would re-send the FAX. The next day, Tuesday, I called the vet and finally they said it had been FAXed back to PetMeds. But, by then, I needed some pred to tide me over until the PetMeds pills arrived and asked for 12. Went to pick them up on Wed. and the cost was $20,70 (plus tax). I asked how many - was told 30. I then asked for just 12 and was told the price was the same. So, then I said, give me 60 as I paid that for 60 last time. Then I was told that they could only dispense 30 as the vet was on vacation (there are 8 vets total in the clinic) and no other vet could prescribe. So, I called PetMeds and they overnighted the 100 pills to me and I told the vet's office to forget it. I can only figure out that they have just one price for the pills, up to 60. Anyway, I'm a big fan of PetMeds now. And the chemo pill has to be bought at a pharmacy. RiteAid wanted $33 for 4 pills. Costco's price was 1/2 the cost. So, check around. We found, with a cat who had CRF (now deceased) that lactated ringers were $24 for 12 at Costco and the vet charged $14 for one....See MoreI got something for FREE!
Comments (35)I got mine the other day. I have to giggle as when I first saw the post I thought it was spam and didn't think much about it till berf posted. Then I ordered mine... I have to give the company credit as they emailed with a shipping confirmation and were very professional and it arrived on time and seems nice. I needed one just like it with a low profile under my kitchen sink in plastic for chemicals, etc and couldn't find one just right and this one is it. My only complaint was the box was not taped well and open when it arrived but everything was safe and no issues - they need to use a thicker packing tape when mailing but the box was very sturdy so nothing was damaged and fedex was clearly careful. Haven't installed it yet, but looks easy. :) Thanks for posting this....See MoreI witnessed a horrible accident today :(
Comments (28)A happy ending indeed. I'm glad you don't have to experience bad feelings about it now. But things like this teach us to be aware that cars are powerful forces. We need to be careful with them and keep them in good order. I saw something this summer in Yellowstone. We were all told to stay in the old lodge until a thunderstorm passed and the rangers gave the all clear. It was a merry scene with people talking, having cocoa and coffee. Kids were sitting in groups playing games. The fireplaces were crackling and people shared pictures on their phones and told stories. I went out on the upper deck where there were chairs under the eaves ( all soaked ) to see the hail storm with some others. We were watching lightning on the horizon moving toward the road that connects Norris with Old Faithful. I turned to look the other way and saw a man with a frame pack with a tiny child running for the hotel as a large bolt of lightning came down maybe a minivans distance from him. He then sprinted faster than a deer into the building as the whole place shook from the thunder causing people to silence. I won't forget the sound of that crack in the air or the large boom afterward. Being used to earthquakes, the building shaking didn't bother me. I'm so happy that man and child are safe....See MoreRusty
