Why doesn't tennessee have a minimum salary?

I mean, most state's have it and it makes sure no one is screwed over. So I would love to know from someone that actually knows about this kind of thing, seeing as I can't find anything online, or im just not looking in the right place. Either way, I really think I rather just get answers from people instead of some old web page someone posted god knows when.

Want to Die, can't see a good future (Really Long)?

Oh I'm so sorry/: your not screwed for life:) theirs somebody for everybody out their, and trust me when I say that.

Their is, please trust me. We just have to look past all depression. And I'm sure theirs a girl out their who's perfect for you. I'm sorry you've never really had any friends or anything, and that your familys no help with your problems. Its not fair to you that your family gets all weirded out when you talk to them about being depressed, I mean they should at least try to understand! And I don't pay much attention to pop culture or sports either haha I don't really care much about it. Just remember, your not alone okay?:)

They will not play and I cannot click on the record or play buttons, they ignore my clicks.

Poster's reply: 16 year old girl dating 36 year old man.?

Okay, if in 4 years you're both still "in love" then we'll see if you have a valid argument. But you don't. I'm 16 too and I'm sorry I would never date anyone as old as my own mother.

Can marijuana affect myofascial pain?

I was recently told that pain in my legs (can be very severe at times) might by caused by a case similar to fibromyalgia or some other myofascial pain syndrome. I know a common theory regarding fibromyalgia is that is has something to do with dopamine, serotonin, or other endorphins in the brain. I also know that marijuana is known to effect many of the endorphins in the brain, so i ask this question; is it possible marijuana could be having an affect on myofascial pain? The pain did start occuring roughly around the time i began smoking marijuana and has continued sense. The amount i smoke varies, averaging around once every 1.5-2 weeks. I know asking for medical advice, is looked down upon, but i do not feel comfortable speaking with my regular doctor about such things. Any advice is appreciated, i promise i won't sue ;)

What computer should I get (for college and electronic music)?

My dad offered to buy me a laptop for my birthday, and I would definitely like to take him up on that offer. I am starting my senior year of high school, and would like to be able to use this laptop throughout college as well. I would also be using this for producing electronic music, but not using it for games (I want to be as least distracted as possible). I want a laptop with above average processing power, lots of storage (I'll be storing papers and a LOT of music on this thing), and relatively good memory, 2 GB is minimum, 4GB is preferred. If the graphics look amazing, that's a plus. I am proficient in PCs as well as Macs. Also, try to keep it under $3,000.

Small Business Question. Any seasoned owners out there?

Try Peachtree accounting. We use it for our business and was recommended to us by our CPA. Peachtree has several different versions of their accounting software depending on the number of integrated features you need. It took a little while for us to get setup because I'm still learning how to import retail items but overall I really like how complete and in-depth it is.

How serotonin influences blood pressure?

does increase or decrease in level of serotonin affects blood pressure??how??plz explain in simple words..

Why is there no endorphin pills?

There are pills to treat ADHD which increases the serotonin levels. And people with eating disorders such as BED tend to turn to food for emotional causes, and a low level of endorphins. So why can't they create that pill instead of people turning to food whenever that happens? I'm just 13 years old, so don't assume I'm really ignorant for asking this question.

How soon can you tell- different tests, etc.?

Dollar store tests DO work, and work well! I took one with this pregnancy (I am a day past my due date!) If you google prego tests it should tell you exactly what tests work with what level of HGC. You want the smallest amount like 20 mIU//ml. It should say on the package what level it tests for. Hope this helps! Good luck

A question about neurotransmitter transporters?

Info on Serotonin Syndrome?

I've recently had friends invite me to do some dxm with them in an upcoming weekend. I've done the stuff before and don't need any anti-drug talks(I know what I'm getting myself into). However, I've heard that I need to be aware of something called serotonin syndrome. Could someone please give me an in-depth description of this? I'm currently on Zoloft 100mg for social anxiety, as well as a few vitamins/herbs including St. Johns Wort. What are the chances that I may develop this problem? Also, what are the consequences of developing serotonin syndrome? Is it a one time overdose issue or like a long-time physical/mental issue? Should I get off the ssris/herbs before I take DXM? Please answer these questions and anything else important that I should know. I want facts, not lies; however, please don't hold back if I'm missing something important. Thanks.

How Many Tiger Barbs in a Planted 10 Gallon Aquarium?

Honestly I wouldnt recommend putting tiger barbs in anything less then 20 gallons.Tiger barbs are feisty fish, and grow larger than you probably realize. A 10 gallon tank is really not appropriate. Because they are aggressive, they are also best in larger schools although 5 is the minimum for a school, and a 10 gallon isn't enough space. A 10 gallon would be sutiable for 6 cherry barbs though.

Where exactly is the serotonin in the GI tract?

Serotonin is a transmitter in both the brain and elsewhere. In fact, although most non-scientists think only of brain serotonin, about 80 percent of the human body's total serotonin is actually located outside the brain in specialized cells (enterochromaffin cells) that are located in the membrane surrounding the intestines. Nerve endings around the intestines that release serotonin help to regulate intestinal movements. Medications that act on to stimulate a particular class of serotonin receptors (5-HT(4) receptors) are used in the treatment of irritable bowel syndrome and constipation. btw - if "bruce" is an MD, I hope he is not practicing in gastroenterology.

Have I just ruined things with new girlfriend?

Its not your fault if you have some kind of disorder, neither its in your hands. If she really likes you then it will not matter but if she leaves you then forget about her. But from my perspective, its not ruined.

INVENTOR VS INVESTOR?

It really depends on the agreement you make with the investor... some can ask for 20%, some for 70%. What they want to see (generally) is ROI (return on investment) and buy out options so if they invest 100K in 3 years they want say 1000K and to leave the venture... watch dragon's den TV show it should help you understand a bit more

If i put a patent on a drawing can i sue someone who selling something that looks similar to it?

Drawings are not patented, they are copyrighted. An image must be virtually identical before a suit will be successful. Similar isn't enough, it needs to be a copy.

Are evil people born that way?

I think it's both depending on the person. I was always a total sweetheart when I was young but in high school I was pretty much an evil, insane sociopath because I couldn't handle being transsexual. Now that I can handle it and I'm transitioning I'm a pacifist who lives for love. So I went crazy due to my homophobic environment. If you look at Ted Bundy, he was never abused but he was still a sociopath. He said he never understood emotions or why people would want friends. So I think it could be genes or an overwhelming environment that causes it. In many cases it's probably a combination like you said.

Is there a way to request information from the city of Atlanta?

I live in Florida, but I want to get information about a building I've been researching in Atlanta since going there a few months ago; the Medical Arts Building on Peachtree. I've felt such an unexplainable pull to this building and I want to know every bit of history there is that has happened and about it. Unfortunately there hasn't been much I've been able to find online, except pictures and the bare minimum. So, would I be able to contact the city and see if they could mail or email me some detailed information about the building? It's on the Atlanta Preservation Center's List of Endangered Buildings and is a designated Landmark Building to the city. Any help is appreciated :)

???camping with horses?

When we take our horses camping we tie on a tie line using tree saver straps with rings and a non stretching line. We tie each horse far enough apart so they can't touch each other. Then tie them so they can just barely reach the ground. Their noses don't need to be on the ground. Make sure their is no slack in the tie line. Try this during the day so you can watch them and sometimes they will take naps after a long trail ride during the day. If your horse paws you can use hobbles, practice at home with hobbles. Our horses lie down all the time when they are camping.

17 years old, and serotonin deficient... Help/Advice please?

I talked to my science teacher the other day about how I am always craving foods like dark chocolate and coffee. I feel like all the time there is this little voice in my head telling me how worthless I am, and I can go through days/weeks of feeling depressed. I'm only 17 years old - by a couple of months, and my teacher told me I am serotonin deficient. What does this mean, and are there any ways I can help this without prescription drugs? I have found that whenever I feel depressed music always helps me - to a certain extent, and I sometimes just have to go lay outside under the sun, or just feel the wind. I know that sunlight can help, but I don't understand how craving dark chocolate and caffeine can be factors in determining that I'm serotonin deficient. I am constantly tired, no matter how much sleep I get. I feel like my head and neck are in constant pain - but I don't know if this is because of how I sleep or what. I just want to get rid of this feeling of... well... I feel like I just can't do anything. Please help me, or just explain why it is I'm like this. There has to be other people out there like me, and I don't know why I am like this at the age of 17. I need something, or someone to let me know that this can be helped... Please.

What is Serotonin Syndrome like?

So lately I've been hearing a lot of buzz about a condition called "Serotonin Syndrome". Apparently... with all the different types of anti depressant medications being prescribed these days that get mixed, abused and/or used recreationally is causing the condition to become much more common. Its very intriguing to me. I would love to hear from someone who has actually been through this, and describe the experience from beginning to end in detail. Weird question I know but I'm very curious.

How exactly would you get PASSIVE income from your "Ideas''?

Learn to write science fiction. Use your ideas to create excellent stories and get residuals off them. If I remember right, Arthur C Clarke invented the idea of the geosynchronous orbit, but there was no way to patent it. Still, he made a buck or two. So did Heinlein, with the water bed, among other things.

Whats the point of taking Anti-Psychotics?

I don't have Schizophrenia but I do suffer from Psychosis with occasional manic episodes and depression.I'm on 40mg Geodon and 15mg Remeron.The Remeron is a mood stabilizer which corrects a chemical imbalance by releasing more nor-epinephrine and serotonin.I learned that Geodon blocks both serotonin and dopamine receptors.I exercise which produces more endorphins.Now how am I supposed to get more serotonin and dopamine from Remeron and exercise when Geodon is blocking these receptors?...Geodon is helping control my manic attacks and does clarify thoughts but I still feel like I shouldn't take it if it's going to leave me emotionless...So whats the deal?

What foods or medicinal compounds decrease serotonin (i.e. serotonin-mediated neurotransmission)?

There are literally hundreds of pages explaining how to increase serotonin and improve mood, but regulating mood is only one of serotonin's many functions. Most people don't realize that serotonin also exerts an inhibitory effect on acetylcholine and glutamate transmission, and for some, increasing Serotonin can cause confusion symptoms similiar to "sluggish cognitive tempo". Some researchers are looking for serotonin antagonists as a treatment for dementia patients as a way to improve lost cognitive functions. In my opinion, its possible that many people diagnosed with ADD would also benefit from this kind of compound as well. So I wonder, are there any natural ways to reduce serotonin? I have read that a low carb diet would do this, but I would like to find a psychoactive compound if possible. (Remember, it would have to cross the Blood-Brain Barrier!)

How rare is serotonin syndrome? What is the likleyhood of me getting it?

I am 15 and I take 50mg of Zoloft a day but it doesn't affect me like most people because I am unfortunately obese (trying to lose the weight though).

I've only taken 2 Ultrams today and I don't take Zoloft until the evening. I didn't know about the serotonin syndrome until after I took the second one. I'm really scared now. Am I okay?

Are there different subsets of depression? How can we treat a condition which we know nothing about?

I think there are different subsets of what is called "depression". Some are caused by a person's subconscious or even conscious; some forms are due to diseases; and some forms are due to a combination of the two and genetics and a problem with the rewards, pleasure pathway in the brain. It's my belief that all currently FDA approved medications act only as placebos, accept maybe for a select few individuals that may have experienced a traumatic episode in their lives. I believe, for people that have been suffering from symptoms of depression, and chronic fatigue, and felt "off" all their life their is a genetic problem. Also, the drugs available to treat such "biological" depression (though I don't think it can be considered depression if it is biological or medical) is woefully impotent. We have the FDA not approving any drugs that actually are shown to relieve "depression"- especially in the 40-50% of of depressive patients that get no relief from the current "placebo" antidepressants-because they act to quickly and thus are deemed "addicting". The only thing the FDA will improve, and the pharmaceutical companies will pursue, are long acting drugs, that really have no effect except for the placebo effect. As someone that fits somewhere in these categories, I can attest I have never felt any benefit from every category of antidepressant when on it for weeks! Nothing. I can not believe that these drugs are even approved. The pharmaceutical companies, research bio-psychiatrists and all scientists involved in mental health have no concrete clue as to how the current so called antidepressants work (which I believe they don't), because they have not been able to measure quantified regions of the brain consistent with depression and subsequent improvement as related to these medications. Psychiatrists are a joke for people with a biological problem causing the depression or total body and brain loss of certain characteristics. The current research on antidepressants, is all by accident, coincidental. A certain drug designed for something else, happens to cause a lift in mood for a small subset of patients. Therefore it must be an antidepressant!....The serotonin theory pushed by some, has no basis at all, with regard to antidepressants. To prove this, they are several drugs approved to treat depression that actually reduce serotonin! Personally, I'd rather take the chances of living as a so called addicted person, with feelings, emotions, and contribution to society than suffer decades due to our government rulings and propaganda by psychiatrists and pharmaceutical companies.

Can you include more than one design option for a device in a utility patent application?

I've invented a tool and one of the components involves a water tight pump. I would like to include two strategies for making this. Both accomplish the same goal and are a component of a device that accomplishes the same goal, so would I able to file both designs under a single patent application or would I have to do each of them separately?

How tall for long prom dress?

Well it really depends on the dress length. If you want the dress to cover up your legs, then it's fine. If you want to go for one of the more modern day dresses that are super short then go for that. As long as the dress isn't dragging, wear it. And wear the heels too :)

I think Obama screwed up when he invested all that money in alternative energy without a PATENT. He should have had a PATENT that claims that yes you get our money but because of out PATENT it can only be manufactured in the USA. Oh I am sure the neocons would love that cause it would be a PATENT.

Obama Care judicial question?

Why can Congress require Americans to have a minimum insurance coverage. In my mind, that seems like a personal choice, not one that the government can force on citizens. It's kind of like the choice to have a house, it's recommended, but you don't have to have one if you don't want one, and the government can't force you to buy or build a house of your own.

Why Don't Republicans care about Employees? Michelle Bachmann is in Favor of Abolishing the minimum wage?

Abolishing minimum wage doesn't mean she doesn't care about employees. If you knew anything about economics then you would know that the entire concept of minimum wage only hurts business, results in fewer jobs being available and increased costs to consumers.

Worth becoming a scientist?

Only you can make the decision of what you want to do with your life and where you will feel most content and happy and as you say we would still be in the dark ages without scientists. You talk all about what you have awards for and all about quantum fields and PhD, I don't know what they are but you talk more about that than anything else, you just mention about being a lawyer but you have to think 10-20 years from now, which one will you be happier doing? Good Luck

Would you be angry in my situation? please I need advice!?

Yes, I think it is silly for you to be mad about this. Your sister may be getting free stuff, but what kind of life does she have? Not a great one, as you have described. Yes, you're working hard and paying a lot of money to do something significant with your life, but that doesn't mean you won't be able to afford or have time to raise a family, so you shouldn't feel like she's the one who's getting everything without working for it. Don't even worry about what kind of life your sister has and don't feel like you're getting the short end of the stick. Because you aren't.

Cause I have veryyy bad anxiety where I get panic attacks all day everyday and i'm becoming super depressed cause of it and dont want to leave the house to do anything.

Depressed? Blame the genes now then!!?

Prescribed medicine interaction help please.?

I am on 60mg of fluoxetine for a serotonin imbalance. I recently had an accident and was prescribed co co codamol 30/500 but it wasn't touching the pain. The dr has now prescribed me Tramadol 50mg tablets & I'm to take 1 or 2 four times a day. Problem is in the leaflet it says you shouldn't mix fluoxetine with Tramadol because it can cause serious side effects. I don't want to take the Tramadol now even though the pain is getting me down because of what I've read as I'm not sure it's safe to mix the 2.

New Chinese Study Draws a Link Between?

I have not read this study, but it may have something to do with how the brain develops. Higher levels of seretonin during development may effect the physiology of the brain. However, once the brain has reached "maturity" the addition of extra serotonin may have little or no influence.

Help with Mcdonalds Employment!?

You need to prove that you can work under stress - and not be like a fish out of water. Unfortunately, how you appear in the interview for a fast food job reflects how you will be working in these stressful situations. Academics mean nothing in these types of jobs. If you have experience working in a team environment - teaching soccer, currently (not in the past) playing in a sporting team -= these are ways to prove your ability. That is what they are looking for. What they want is someone they can train and has a low probability NOT to move to a better paying job in the future - so do not mention your percieved money problems - that would be a red flag.

What foods will increase Serotonin?

Hi, I've recently found out I have OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder). I was looking it up on the internet to see what the cause of it is. While I know it can't be cured, I know it can be treated by therapy and such. But OCD is really caused, or the only cause that scientists have been able to figure out, is low Serotonin levels in the brain. I'm hoping I have the name right. But I don't have severe OCD, it's just mild, and I really want to know how to treat it before it gets worse. So is there any food with Serotonin that will help? I'd really appreciate it if you shared your answers! Thanks so much!

I've been taking Fluvoxamine for OCD for years, and my doctor recently changed me to Zoloft because I was starting to experience intense anxiety again.

Is there a cure for hiv? Why do I have to have a question with 100 letters, I think that's real rediculous!?

Blood electrification was a method found to have an Effect to inactivate HIV/aids cells in the 90's. This was found by two students studying at albert Einstein medical college. Soon later dr. Bob beck created a device for the human which was a watch like device sending low voltages to the blood which is the process of blood electrification. Now the reason this isn't well known is becuz it was never patented and there was no proof it worked although several claims from different people claimed it worked. The question I ask is if n e 1 here has heard of blood electrification and to share there knowledge of it here.

What to do about my boss/roommate yelling at her kids all day everyday?

I work as a nanny to 3 kids, and one is very difficult with huge emotional and behavioral issues. I have received numerous compliments from friends and there family on the positive changes that have came about since i have been there nanny. They went through 6 nannies in 3 years, and i am the only one who has stayed and taken an invested roll in the girl, of which i have been told no one else could get along with her. Well my question is, part of my pay, which is i believe to be below minimum wage, is to live at the house, since the mother works 24 hours shifts. I do not make enough to pay to live anywhere else. Well the problem is that the mother yells at the kids all the time, almost 6 to 10 times a day, i hear her yelling, and it seems to always be right outside my bedroom door, or my window, at ground level. I "hide" in my room constantly when the mother is here, part to give them there space, and privacy, and part because i do not enjoy interaction with the mother, because she always asks me to work overtime without pay, and she is always in a bad mood. the yelling is so distracting, and starts as soon as the kids get home from school, or when the whole family gets home from going somewhere. I can barely get anything done, from work, paying bills, all the work people have to keep up on, (looking for a new job), my entire to do list. The family is on vacation this week and i have been so productive with getting stuff done, that i have realized just how bad her yelling is effecting my emotional well being, and productivity. I have tried working in my car, and to hot this time of year, and i go to the library which is the best alternative, but then need to go get food, etc, and end up spending money, and not getting alot done because of people talking, or loud kids at the library. i would appreciate some idea's as to what other people would do in this situation. I am looking for another job, but with this economy it is a bit of a slow process. I feel if my room and board are part of the pay, i should have a right to a peaceful environment, and not have to listen to all that yelling, of which it doesn't take to get the kids to behave, they do just fine, and i NEVER yell at them, so as to show them that isn't the only way to communicate. Also when there mother is here, all the kids yell alot also, and the girl screems all the time, and fights with her brothers, when im on duty and the mother is gone, non of the kids yell, or scream or fight. It is very peaceful when she isnt here, and when she is, you can tell the anxiety of the kids goes through the ceiling, as does mine. If i were to say something to her, what would be appropriate? Thank you so much for taking the time to read this and respond. I really just would like to know what other people would do, or how it would effect them. thanks!! please no rude or snot-tie responses, my stress levels are off the charts from all the yelling, and the world needs more kind people, not people who can not control themselves :)

I have a great new idea for a product but before going to the big companies with it I want to make sure that I?

What most would-be inventors don't realize is that it's not so much as a patent for an idea as the need to have a working prototype. You need to have your idea in working example form. It's harder to do than what most people think. One just can't declare an idea.

Why do female pop stars dress for men?

When men wouldn't be interested in buying their music? Their music is targeted towards young girls but they dress for men, i'm talking about girls like Katy Perry, Miley Cyrus, (insert Disney star here), uh I dunno... Jennifer Lopez, etc... I don't get it. Personally I don't really care because I can't stand that kind of 'music' (if you could call it that) anyway but i've always wondered why they dress the way they do if their fan base is mostly young women... Also, do you think they're sending out a bad message? I heard a Rhianna song (oh there's another one for you) about S&M and I imagined little pre teen girls listening to it and I dunno it grossed me out a little. I see little girls wearing patent leather high heeled boots and tiny skirts and I thank god I grew up in the 90's. Any thoughts?

I am unsure about spaying my *****?

She's actually more likely to be aggressive if she isn't spayed. I would get her spayed and not take that chance again. .It could be bad if she gets pregnant again. So get her spayed so there's no chance of it happening again. She is less likely to be aggressive if she doesn't have a chance of getting pregnant again.

My brother is a 99er... should I give him more money?

First perhaps it hasn't hit oyou but the economy does in fact suck, it is hard for everyone. There are lots of people who are out of work trying to find jobs. So you option c is just you being a jerk. I'm not sure why you feel the need to beg him to pay you back later. If all he has borrowed is $135, that's nothing. loan him the $150 or make yourself feel better about it and don't loan it to him, find jobs around your house that need to be done that you do not have the time for, pay him for doing those. That way it is not a loan but payment for services. And he doesn't have to feel guilty about owing you money.

How much salary am I entitled to?

My sister just finished her Bachelors of Fine Arts in Water colors from an art school and said she was entitled to earning no less than $40K a year because she has a college degree. I took some classes at community college but didn't really like it. I dropped out after the first semester and probably won't be back.

I can say that do have SOME college now which makes me better than someone with just a GED or someone that hasn't graduated because they were stupid and flunked out of highschool.

Effexor + St. John's Wort = Serotonin Syndrome?

I know they say that you are not supposed to take St. John's Wort if you are taking an antidepressant, because it can increase the risk of Serotonin Syndrome. But here's the thing. I only take 75mg of Effexor a day. At different points I have been prescribed twice my current dose of Effexor, Paxil along with the Effexor, and Prozac along with the Effexor. The increased dose and the SSRIs all caused unacceptable side effects, but not Serotonin Syndrome. So, I'm thinking....since I take a pretty small dose of Effexor, and since my Dr. saw no problem with prescribing more antidepressants, adding St. John's Wort should be safe, at least WRT Serotonin Syndrome. My doc is pro-prescription-drugs and therefore won't give me an opinion.

5htp for serotonin levels?

Would you be angry in my situation?

No you are not silly! This happens all the time. It really pisses me off too!! Confront your sister and tell her to get it together... to stop being a lazy *** and start working more hours. I think you can report her to her social worker... and they'll start investigating her and why she doesn't or cant find a full time job. My "mother in law" had 12 kids!!! she doesn't work uses the lame excuse that she cant because there will be no one to take care of her kids. Her house is dirty looks like a dump. Roaches everywhere, she doesn't know how to clean or cook. She gets a EBT card which is reloaded every month with a little over 1200 a month... she gets the government to pay her rent.. and she never has money! shes a horrible mother.... a horrible woman... just a terrible person who tries to rip anyone off or borrow money from anyone. Its scandalous. THE BEST SOLUTION is STAY THE HELL away from people like this... SOON ENOUGH they will try to screw you over as well.....show ur parents that you are different and you an live on ur own and be responsible and independent. and tell them they shouldnt encourage her or smile upon her lazy ***....theyll get pissed but theyll be proud you are doing it on ur own and your sister will be nothing more than just jealous and bitter for her sorry *** life choices!!! HOPE THIS HELPED.

Venlafaxine and serotonin syndrome?

So I've been taking venlafaxine a day for over 3 years now. Venlafaxine is the only prescription I currently have. I started at 75mg and moved up to 150mg a day for a couple of years. Not long ago my doctor decided to bump me back down to 75mg since many of my original depression symptoms have disappeared. I've only recently bothered to wiki the drug and stumbled across serotonin syndrome. Does it seem like I should be concerned about serotonin syndrome at all?

What more do you plan to get out of life?

i have the worst type of depression- circumstantial so its not like I can take pure mdma and fix a chemical imbalance (lack of serotonin) i don't have. Earth feels like "been there done that". What more can I really get out of a life where there is more room for error than not and the juice is rarely worth the squeeze. And the more that there is to get, will it be worth all the sacrifices needed? Is working two or three jobs to feed the family worth it if you're never there to see them smile? Im 25 going on 60, have had every resource a human could ask for- love , food, material things, employment but it all seems to be jaded, repetitive and unappealing considering that there is only so much a human mortal can obtain or not on planet earth. So why scratch a living in a war, poverty, and disease infested planet to make ends meet only to be subject to destruction (expiration) no matter what we do? What more do you expect or plan to get out of life?

It is just too bad these stories should not be shared with people who are just starting drugs and feel that they are just wonderful and safe.

This will take some work.

How do bypass minimum operator age requirements for an atv?

You need to be more specific on your age and what you'll be using it for. If your using it for off road track use, then there are many to buy on the internet without the need for parent's consent and you can ride them from any age (if you can physically). Just make sure you buy a good one, they can usually be delivered. Let me know what you'll be using it for and your age, you cant legally ride an ATV on the road unless you're 16 right? I'm not sure what the legal age is cause I don't live in the US but, it will probably be the same as a car.

What is the difference between serotonin and dopamime?

Both are known for giving pleasure, but they have different properties. I am guessing that serotonin is for mental pleasure and that dopamine is for physical pleasure.

I am getting very little hours and will be going back to college soon, should I look for another job?

Right now I am only getting random hours a week. It is a retail position however, I do not like the fact that I am getting very little hours. I always come in on time and I know it is retail but 5 hours last week and only 10 this week? I will be going back to college in the fall and was wondering if I should try to get a job in the mean time that has a more consistent schedule and that could give me at least 15 hours a week as I make barely above minimum wage. I don't know what to do because it seems like that this is something that can continue and when I go back to school, I can't work these same odd ball hours again, so should I try to find a job better around my schedule, or should I just stick it out there and see where it goes.

Will I lose the magic of MDMA?

I've been experimenting with MDMA for about a year, ive done my research on the chemical and believe it's safe to consume as long as you don't abuse. I've disciplined myself pop one pill and only one, every two months. To make things things short, my best friend is coming from arkansa I'M EXCITeD!!!!! Haven't seen him in 3 years, We both want to roll, my dilemma is I usually wait 2 months before I pop again, and I only been sober for two weeks, are my serotonin levels back to normal? would it be safe just to roll again this one time? Will I lose the magic? I need advise from people with experience..........

Why have Middle Class Wages Plummeted since Clinton Left office?

If you look at the charts showing middle class earnings during the 1990's thru now. They maxxed out around Bill Clintons last years in office. Then around 2002-2003, they start free falling. On the Flip side though, for the top earners, those in the top %10 range,, their earnings sky rocketed. Nearly doubled since 2000 Until now. This is a fact that can not be ignored, the middle class is Sinking, and sinking fast. As Americans, we can not ignore massive facts like these. We have been so side tracked with Al-Quadea, that we have forgotten about our neighbors. And the fact is the only political party who is talking about these statistics are democrats. I never hear the Tea party / Republican's / Fox News mention things like this. Is there some benefit to this that I don't understand? If the Middle class is smaller, and there is a larger poverty range, and richer rich people, does this help business? On top of all the stripping of workers rights, and promises of abolishing minimum wage, from folks like Michelle Bachmann and Rand Paul... Do those things help the middle class? The average middle class worker in 1990 earned $20.00 Per hour. and made 41k a year. Today? It's $14.80 per hour and 30k per year.

Spoiled little brother. Parents some suggestions?

So I'm 12 about to turn 13. I have an older Sister but she's in collage and doesn't live with us. And then there's my little brother who's in 1st grade and he is soooooooo spoiled. Here are some examples: 1. Last Christmas he got everything he wanted. An xbox, like 5 games, a brand new bike, and an iPhone ( he already owns an iPad). He then COMPLAINS that he didn't get what he wanted... 2 when I go to the math tutor (I get about a B) my little brother gets to sit in the car and play his iPad (He's getting like a D+). 3. His eating habits are really bad... Thank goodness he has fast metabolism. For lunch he had cookies and chocolate milk one day... 4. His mom let's him bring his iPod to school (1st grader) and he shows it off to everybody and brags about it. I try talking to my patents but they tell me that I'm a spoiled little brat because I'm jealous of him... I don't even have half the stuff he's got... Any suggestions parents,

What is the long term complications of taking an anti-depressant? serious question?

Although these drugs increase the levels of NE and 5-HT in your neural synapses, there is no direct evidence that deficient NE and 5-HT cause depression in the first place. It has since been found that these type of drugs actually affect the morphology of your brain, and a popularised theory (which is backed by a myriad of histological evidence) is that these kinds of drugs promote neurogenesis in the hippocampus - an area of the brain involved in memory and learning. Impaired neurogenesis has been linked to depression. So in answer to your question, yes it is likely that these drugs are going to have a long term effect on the structure of your brain. But as for causing complications, I'm no expert in clinical medicine but since NE and 5-HT aren't a direct constituent of the brain reward circuitry I doubt you can get addicted to them in the same way that people get addicted to psychostimulants. Other changes to NE and 5-HT synapses I'm guessing are likely to be short term and will reverse when you come off of the drugs.

SSRI's and SNRI's don't seem to work?

If you have anxiety, you dont want to take wellbutrin. Read about it. Just keep trying meds.. try zoloft, paxil, I dont know why you have to ask you doctor to try new drugs..she should be prescribing what she thinks you need.. but maybe try an anti phycotic..

What are the chances of getting my scholarship back if my GPA falls below the required minimum? PLEASE HELP!!!?

Just recently, I have gotten the letter from my school about my scholarship pertaining to this year's academic performance. I go to a public school in the state of MD. I have received this scholarship since beginning of my freshman year and this would be my last year. This is the Dean Scholarship which is 3k a year for four years. They just sent a letter that my GPA has been revoked and discontinued. But I can send a letter of appeal by JULY 15TH 2011. They require form of documentation to justify that why I did not maintain it. I moved off campus this year which was different for me and I was sick during the last semester. But I did not go to the doctor for documentations. The only time I did go was when my fever went down by alot but I was still feeling sick, but it was not hot enough to stay of the university health services. What can be convincing to support me in order to get my schlorship back? This means alot to me since, it is a big amount of money. I did poorly in school and that is why re-taking some classes at a community college to re-learn the material. The school required a GPA of 3.0, and my GPA is at 2.8 right now. It seems so close yet not close enough. I also need a grade change because one of my professor lost my exam and she is willing to change my grade from a C to a B. I believe two of my professors can write me a written letter that I have done well in their class and tell them I am a good standing student. I dropped this class because I came to this class late in the semester and I kept going for extra help, but during spring break, I got sick again and there was no way for me to catch up. She know that I have been coming to class every time. Should I ask her, is that a legitimate documentation? Also I have email confirmation that I wrote to one of my math professors that I was sick that time and could not make it to class. There is so much on the line foe me because I might not get HOUSING again...PLEASE HELP ME AS MUCH AS YOU CAN. Thank you so much for your time and effort to read my piece of mind that is driving me absolutely nuts right now!!

When should I start giving music lessons?

Right now, I am a 16 year old freshman in high school. I'm the top saxophone and clarinet of a 6A school, and I take private lessons. I wanted to start giving lessons because it sounds like a fun job, and I would earn more than minimum wage. (assuming that I would charge $5.00 for a 30 minute lesson) I thought junior year would be a good time to start giving lessons, but I wanted advice from people who would have more knowledge in this area. Also, would you have any helpful suggestions about giving lessons? Thank you.

Republican legislators support lobbying efforts by pharmaceutical companies to establish renewal of patents on?

existing pharmaceutical products. Republican legislators even support the notion that pharmaceutical companies should be able to establish patent protection over "Legacy drugs" like Aspirin, Acetaminophen and Diphenhydramine (Benadryl). Do you agree with the position of Republican legislators that major pharmaceutical companies should have the right to charge $90 for a bottle of Aspirin?

How many people are allowed in a car with a driver under the age of 18?

I am a new driver, 16 and a half years, and I heard a rumor that the state of pennsylvania passed a law that stated there can only be one other person in a car with a driver under 18. I was wondering if this law was true. Most probably will not know, because it is said that the law will take a minimum of 90 days to take into effect. I know that it will be a secondary effense.

Can the Economy function without Unskilled Labor?

Yes, it needs a certain amount of it. In the US, at least, that proportion of the work force goes down all the time, though. Keep in mind that just about everyone who today holds a job that you would consider highly skilled, at one point held one of those unskilled "lowest" jobs. I know I did. Those jobs are essential to give people job experience on which to build. The vast majority of people earning minimum wage today will not be in those jobs five years from now.

Can belief without evidence be considered "rational"? Isn't what one considers "rational" subjective?

Rationality usually boils down to what can be proven, with facts. Physical evidence is hardly subjective.

Bypassing minimum 1200 calorie intake limit per day with healthy food?

Hello, here's a question that my sister was wondering since today. My sister (and other humans) have to eat at least 1200 calories a day to keep the body functioning correctly. I monopolized her diet due to her inability to control her under/overeating, and I'm wondering: do things such as fruits and veggies with very low calories (or negative calories) make up for the 1200 calorie minimum? Or does she still need to consume the minimum? Also, if fruits and veggies will not bypass and make up for the 1200 calories (she wants to avoid fatty food) will things such as eggs, salmon, and other protein rich foods make it up?

I'm depressed and it's affecting my daily life. What should I do?

Where are your parents? Do they notice the depression in you? What about your teachers or friends, are they saying you are depressed. You do need to seek medical help. There is nothing wrong with being depressed, I mean it does not mean you are crazy. I have been on Paxil for several years, it did not interfere with my career, family life raising 2 children, or social life, in fact it helped me in all those areas. While being depressed you are not able to make correct decisions, please see a doctor.

Am I just tense this morning and being over sensitive...?

I know it sounds stupid when Im saying it now its just I do a lot for him when hes stressed/tired. I wanted to text saying 'I know your tired lately but could ve done with some luck this morning', I just dont want to be causing stress out of nothing though

I have very low serotonin levels. Should I take antidepressants or natural serotonin supplements?

It really depends on how depressed you are. Antidepressants would be better for stronger depression such as suicidal and constantly sad can't live your life depression. Though the down side is that there are side effects, such as your depression can get worse, they can make you sleepy, hyper, addicted, or sick. So if you aren't terribly depressed such as you just can't get out of bed or you see no hope in your life then I would recommend the natural serotonin supplements. They usually are easier on your body and don't have harsh or at least as bad side effects of normal antidepressants. Plus you are less likely to get addicted. Though there are risks and bonuses with both it really depends on what you believe is right for you. As always ask your doctor first to make sure nothing will go wrong and work out any other problems.

What is the most innovative patent in your opinion?

Two, actually- There are two electrical connectors, with the patent held by General Electric Company, that are similar. These connectors were found everywhere prior to the age of the transistor, and are still found in refrigerators, stoves, and other electrical Appliances. The spade lug is a small piece of copper that has two fingers that slide under a nut around a screw, and has the other end of the copper formed so that it can be crimped around a wire. The washer lug is identical, except that instead of the two fingers, it has a washer that slips over the screw, and is then held in place by the nut. These devices replaced solder for connections, could be manufactured inexpensively, and did the job so well that they were the state of the art from about 1925 to 1975. Their utility is such that you will find them in most electricians tool boxes even today.

Anxiety Self Hypnosis Help?

I think your script should focus on relaxation. Walk yourself through all your muscles (you can look up a guided imagery or progressive relaxation script to get ideas) and talk about the tension being released and the muscles relaxing. Talk about feeling comfortable, safe, and secure, and tell yourself that when you wake up you will feel safe and secure, and when you're in the company of others you will also feel safe and calm.

A monopolistically competitive firm is inefficient because the firm?

Why does Beer cause me anxiety?

could have to do with your upbringing, a fear of losing control, a fear of loss of reputation, a fear of what people will say, it is odd I think that beer makes you feel this way cause it makes most people losen up, it is possible you have some odd chemical makeup in this regard, are you taking any medication---there could be some type of interaction going on

Need an add on medication for Cymbalta? (for OCD)?

I am on 60mg of Cymbalta for major depression and OCD and have taken it since october, i also sometimes take Xanax .5 mg for sleep. I noticed a couple times felt like my mind felt much faster and clearer and i am not sure if it was the xanax doing it but i would like to get this effect back. I was wondering if there is an add on drug that can help me think like this again without being as dangerous as benzos. I have OCD and my counselor thinks that it is likely that when the obsessive thoughts stopped although i cant tell if they did i was able to think faster and not drain my serotonin like I was. Suggestions?

Is it possible to have this sort of withdrawal syndrome from masturbation?

I am a 16 yr old male. I have to admit I do this quite frequently. Like 3-5 times or even more a day since I was 9 yrs old. I am quite aware of the fact that masturbation releases serotonin and those so-called "happy hormones". If you masturbate frequently then suddenly stop will there be this sort of withdrawal syndrome? Because recently I feel very depressed and sad but after I masturbate it kinda goes away. Then after some time it will come back again and I have to do it again. So is it possible? Thanks guys!

L-Dopa (LevoDopa) (like "Stalevo") for treatment of Major Depression? Does anyone had an experience about it?

The SSRI's (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors -eg Prozac, Zoloft, Luvox, Paxil, Celexa) are often the first medication given because they work for a large percentage of people and have fewer troublesome side-effects than the older medications. But I had been with the SSRIs for more than 7 years, and the first two years, I think that were working OK. But in the last years, all is going down...So I had read some studies about the L-Dopa, and really wanna try, cause on the last months, my life had been limited to sleep, and a growing feel of dislike. Thanks for all comments that can help me now!

What more do you expect to get out of life?

i have the worst type of depression- circumstantial so its not like I can take pure mdma and fix a chemical imbalance (lack of serotonin) i don't have. Earth feels like "been there done that". What more can I really get out of a life where there is more room for error than not and the juice is rarely worth the squeeze. And the more that there is to get, will it be worth all the sacrifices needed? Is working two or three jobs to feed the family worth it if you're never there to see them smile? Im 25 going on 60, have had every resource a human could ask for- love , food, material things, employment but it all seems to be jaded, repetitive and unappealing considering that there is only so much a human mortal can obtain or not on planet earth. So why scratch a living in a war, poverty, and disease infested planet to make ends meet only to be subject to destruction (expiration) no matter what we do? What more do you expect to get out of life?

Isnt dating just a more expensive version of a hooker, less risky?

Think about it men have to pay for the dates. By the time you actually get any you would have payed atleast twice as much as just going to a hooker in the first place. You know what your in for whereas With dating you could get rejected, lose self esteem but with the hooker a guaranteed dose of serotonin(happy hormones after sex) released into your brain once every couple of months.

Patent infringement or not?

Ive been working a tool / encloser for a specific piece of equipment used in the nuclear field . Prior to filing for a provisional patent I found that a company has a patent on a encloser such as mine but its contruction is very specific that being a tent or cloth material . My devise is constructed of hardened materials such as steel and plastic to provide a hardened safety barrier where theirs does not . My devise would do a couple of things their devise does but will go even further to to provide a safety barrier , but they are both enclosers for a specific piece of equipment . Would I be infringing on their patent by building and selling mine given its built from hardened materials an not a "tent"...

If we don't have money to enforce immigration laws then why do we have money to enforce the patent laws?

The only illegal aliens we crack down on are those that break patent laws. These enforcement of patent laws are extremely expensive since they have to go to other countries to enforce them. The cost easily pass those of deporting illegal immigrants. So why do we choose to enforce laws that cost us so much more? Rather than enforce those that are actually cheaper.

Raise Taxes for Companies that ship jobs Overseas & Cut taxes for those who don't?

I know, I know almost all companies do business overseas. However do you think that this would encourage people to keep jobs here? I'm honestly not sure, because we live in a capitalist society & aside from shipping, it is considerably cheaper to transport jobs when businesses don't have to worry about minimum wage and worker's rights. This is why I'm all for more government involvement in companies. These people are living in America and selling their business to Americans but don't want to stimulate the American economy.Think about how many jobs a company like Wal-Mart alone could provide for America. Your take?

Do I have Serotonin Syndrome?

It's a little unlikely, but regardless I feel I could use another opinion on the matter. About a year back, I'd heard of 5-HTP and after reading up on it, decided to try it, albeit for the admittedly childish intention of having more vivid dreams. In the end, I found a better use for it; it alleviated my anxiety and made my less than perfect weekdays much sunnier. After I finished the bottle some time later, I felt anxious about the idea of potentially becoming dependant on the little tablets, but was surprised to find that this was not the case, and retained my happy disposition. At any rate, a few weeks back, I felt the dismal presence of self-doubt and gloominess creeping up again on my otherwise optimistic mind-set, and last week opted to try taking 5-HTP again. So i've been taking one 100mg capsule on and off before bed for about a week and a half I'm guessing. Last night, I don't believe I took a capsule before sleeping, but nevertheless awoke feeling feverish. No shaking, (except for yesterday after a cup of tea, but this quickly subsided), no sweating, and I do feel a mild soreness, but this is likely due to my running around lately. I don't take any sort of anti-depressant or MAOI's so far as I know. Once again, my imagination is probably getting the best of me, but if there is even the chance that this could be the case, I will discontinue my use immediately. Oh, and I smoke a little pot here and there, in case that may be a factor. Put my mind at ease, would you?

How to regain serotonin levels?

After a long year of partying my freshman year I have developed some anxiety and believe the alcohol may have altered the serotonin levels in my brain. Whether or not thats the actual case, how can I regain or gain serotonin? Any supplements that are safe? or any other ideas?

Do neurotransmitters compete for space in synapses?

Neurons communicate by presynaptic cells releasing neurotransmitters into synapses, which lets messages be sent to postsynaptic cells. My question is do neurotransmitters compete for space in synapses? For example, Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRIs) prevent presynaptic cells from taking back some of the serotonin they released into the synapses. If there is extra serotonin in the synapses, does that interfere with functions of other neurotransmitters such as glutamate or acetylcholine?

What accessories should I wear with my BCBG prom dress?

Hmmm; since your dress is bursting with absolutely beautiful blue shades and tones, I would suggest a bright blue oceanic theme flower with blue mini sparkly clips in your hair, blue diamond vintage bracelets (cerulean or something close to that), layered blue necklaces with a few white ones overlapping. remember, since your dress is a strong sturdy colour, you need different shades of blue that will pop against your pretty dress. hope i helped!

Do most Christians still think that sexual orientation is a choice?

Many of the evangelicals and fundamentalists will always believe that it is a choice, no matter the overwhelming evidence to the contrary. Science and evidence have no meaning for the type of person who chooses willful ignorance over education and enlightenment.

Info on serotonin syndrome?

I've recently had friends invite me to do some dxm with them in an upcoming weekend. I've done the stuff before and don't need any anti-drug talks(I know what I'm getting myself into). However, I've heard that I need to be aware of something called serotonin syndrome. Could someone please give me an in-depth description of this? I'm currently on Zoloft 100mg for social anxiety, as well as a few vitamins/herbs including St. Johns Wort. What are the chances that I may develop this problem? Also, what are the consequences of developing serotonin syndrome? Is it a one time overdose issue or like a long-time physical/mental issue? Should I get off the ssris/herbs before I take DXM? Please answer these questions and anything else important that I should know. I want facts, not lies; however, please don't hold back if I'm missing something important. Thanks.

This has become more frequent over the last 2 years. The "blushing" is worse if anxious or have alcohol but it can happen when calm and sober too. Is it Serotonin levels or something else and is there anything that can stop it as it is so embarrasing?

Turn vegetarian.... turn vegan later in your life when you are completely healthy and you are done with some of these phases. Trust me.

Can your serotonin levels drop?

For a few weeks after I got out of school, I was only getting 2-4 hours of sleep, mostly during the day. I also got sick and stopped eating for a few days. After which, I noticed that I began showing symptoms of low Serotonin levels (sinful thoughts that cause me a lot of regret, obsessive thoughts, no desire to go out of my house, etc). I have begun sleeping at night and longer, as well as eating (since I'm not sick anymore) and have noticed I'm getting better mentally. I was just wondering though if those issues may have caused my serotonin levels to drop down too low and if they'll ever get back to normal. I was also wondering if masturbation may be an issue, since I stopped right around the time I stopped eating and sleeping, although, I've gone days without it before. Could everything happening all at once caused the drop? Just please say I'll go back to normal soon, the obsessive thoughts are killing me. Thanks!

What model rifle is this?

My grandpa recently bought a golf bag at a garage sale, came home, where to his surprise he found a savage twenty-two long rifle in it. I can't find a serial number on it but there is an inscription on the barrel that reads " manufactured by savage arms Corp. Utica. N. Y. U.s.a patented nov. 28.1905.sep.7.1915. Sep.4.1917. Nov. 20.1917." It's missing a magazine and I want to get one for it but I need to know the model/where the serial number is located. Any information is appreciated.

Does Serotonin level matter?

I recently had blood work done. I am meant to see my doctor on Wednesday to go over the results, but I received them early. I got them today in the mail. Everything on my blood work was perfect except for my serotonin level. My level is a 17. It says it's supposed to range from 50-100. So, should I be worried about my level being this low? I'm not sure what serotonin even is or what it does.

Why do some patents have well behaved and successful children, while other parents raise failures?

A lot of people like to blame the parents when that's only a fraction of the issue. I think bad parenting has become more of a lame excuse. It might work when they are preschoolers, but as they slowly become adults it doesn't ride anymore. Ultimately every individual is responsible for their own successes and happiness. You can set a kid up to succeed, but it's up to them to take the reigns. And on the other end of the spectrum, I've personally had bad parents and know many people that come from homes that were full of neglect and abuse yet they are the most well mannered, successful, and polite people I've ever known. They aren't without issues or perfect by any means but if we can over come that.. why cannot others overcome their situations?

Do provisional patents get accepted or declined?

I hear they don't get examined but that doesn't make sense to me. How would you license it to companies if it's not approved?

Not hungry, but I HAVE to eat...?

A good thing to do would be to make a list of foods you like and eat those more often. That way, when you have to eat, you'll enjoy the calories. If you aren't hungry, but you have to eat, try eating foods that will be good for your body. As long as you know that the foods will benefit your body, not make you fat, you won't mind eating them as much. To gain weight, you could also take up weightlifting. Muscle weighs more than fat, so that will help you gain healthy weight faster. I dont really know of a way to be hungrier, but I suppose you could try making delicious meals that make you want to eat. If you see food that you like, you'll feel hungry, even if in reality you aren't actually that hungry. Basically, you just want the taste. Im glad thay you are recovering from it. I can imagine how hard it must be and I desperately want you to succeed. It is great to know that there are people out there with the willpower to overcome anorexia. If one of the main reasons you dont want to eat is a fear of becoming fat, keep in mind that you burn calories just being awake. You even burn them sleeping. You can definitely gain healthy weight by weightlifting and keep off the unhealthy fat by eating nutritious foods that will help your bones and muscles. Good luck and I hope this helped!

Does drinking MTN Dew make your brain function and work different?

My uncle said people where he lives call MTN Dew, the hillbilly's antidepressant and coffee in one. I know this question might sound kind of dumb? But does consuming MTN dew increase dopamine or serotonin levels in the brain, since it makes a person so hyper and stuff?

Effexor XR or Cymbalta?

One antidepressant may work for others but may not for you. Unfortunately nobody on this site can tell you whether or not to take a particular one. Keep up with your psychiatrist it sounds as if he is trying very hard and correctly to find the right one for you. It can be frustrating, but there is a right one for you.

How many patents are in the name of Albert Einstein?

Some speculators say his patent count was over 20, but Einstein is recorded as having 12 patents. You would think he had more since he worked in the Bern Patent Office, but no. None of the 12 were just his though; every time, he had a co-inventor. And, interestingly enough, seven of the twelve were actually for the same invention...just patented in different countries and improvements to the invention (Kaeltemaschine).
