Raimundus posted:Can a swollen eye socket be an early symptom of a sinus infection or cold? My eye doctor says that can't be related and is convinced that I have allergies (I have no history of such). His explanation also does not account for the head cold that I now have. This is EXACTLY the description of the allergies I get. I never had them before, but last year I had some minor issues (runny/stuffy nose for 2 weeks) and this year I got the whole collection (runny/stuffy nose, sinus pressure, itchy eyes, swollen eye socket, cold-like symptoms, and oh god so much more). I thought it was weird that I suddenly had issues, but after asking around I heard the same scenario happened to a few other people I know. Simple test: take some allergy medicine of your choice and if it helps, well, there's your answer. Pogo the Clown fucked around with this message at Sep 14, 2010 around 10:17 |

Elysiume posted:Does anyone know where I could get some good fingerless gloves? Not the hipster crap that doesn't actually provide any warmth. Almost all of what I'm finding is either motorcycle gloves (not very warm, too much padding) or work gloves (same issue). I need gloves that will keep my hands warm but still allow me to type. It's pretty cold and I have mediocre blood circulation. I want them to not go far up my wrist. So I pretty much want these but warm. A lot of the knitted gloves get pulls and wear out really quickly, especially if I'm wearing them often. Perhaps there's some reason why these results aren't what you're looking for, but Googling "fingerless thermal gloves" brings up tons of hits. Most of them appear to be for hunting/shooting/outdoor use, which seems perfect. I have no idea why most of the results appear to be from the UK, though.

Very Strange Things posted:Scientist! I found this study about wine (PDF, 143 kb) which seems to contradict you. In it they look at a series of wines over 20 years with and without exposure to oxygen (ie some have corks that breathe a bit and others have screw-on lids). Using spectral analysis and such (not just tastings) they found differences over time in BOTH sets of wine, leading them to the conclusion that while oxygen exposure while in the bottle does expedite aging, it is not the only factor. I realize that wine and liquor can be very different, and I'm no expert, but the mechanisms they cite as possible aging factors seem like they would affect any bottled liquid with enough time. Mostly they mention condensation, polymerization, and distillation of certain chemicals. Basically, if it sits still long enough, the various molecular bits tend to clump together and/or break apart. HOWEVER, with all that said, the paper ends with, "...the low levels recorded in this instance are not considered to be commercially unacceptable." So, in anaerobic (air tight) bottles it happens, but its minor and possibly commercially insignificant. Edit: I should add the study held light exposure and temperature constant. Changing levels of those 2 things may also have an impact. Pogo the Clown fucked around with this message at Oct 6, 2010 around 20:06 |

I mean it's going to be wrapped in tape anyway. And if it's going to be wrapped up, is there anything stopping you from replacing the sock with a plastic bag and just using a bit more tape?

I think there is a thing called "tagging" people in a photo? What does that mean? Can it only be done for someone who has an account, i.e. your name shows up as a hyperlink under the photo and people can click on it to see your page? Or can your name be "tagged" meaning that if someone searches for you, they might find a tagged picture despite you not having an account? I know somebody who is not on facebook, but is tagged in a few photos. I just had a look and cannot seem to find a way to search for her or link any of the several photos in which she is tagged. You appear to be safe from that. As for what "tagging" itself, it's like labeling a picture. A list of people in the photo is shown underneath the image. If you hover your mouse over a person's name, they are highlighted in the image with a white box. If they have a facebook profile then their name appears as a link which takes you to their profile or additional pictures of them.

Possibly your best bet is to find a dry cleaners that offers a down/feather wash service (this is different from dry cleaning, don't let them dry clean your feather items!). It's not that they have some magical touch, its just that large items like that are easier to wash and dry in large machines, and the extra space while doing so can help with redistribution.

Shnicker posted:Does anyone know the best way to call internationally? Specifically, to an Australian cell phone from the US? I know it seems like a silly question but I'm at the end of my rope with these scammy phone cards. 11 cents a minute turning into 18 cents a minute, dropped calls, this and that. Skype would be a good option except I don't always have good internet access. I'm not using a smartphone. I looked into different cell phone plans and they only cover calls to landlines, like Metro PCS's unlimited international calling. All I'm looking for is a fair rate without phantom charges. I've been calling Australia from the US for years now and there's no easy answer. Honestly the best thing is to get your person onto an old fashioned land line. If that is not at all possible then you're stuck with the phone cards. I had good luck with the plans from NobelCom. You get the best rates if you can call from a land line yourself. If you're like me and don't have access to one, you can always use a pay phone for a small extra fee by making the connection through an 800 number they provide. Be sure to check your intended pay phone, though, as they are getting hard to find and not all of them will work (as far as I can tell some of the pay phone owners will block certain 800 numbers). Or you could always just text them. I'm on Verizon and an international text costs me about 20 cents to send.

Mr. Crow posted:Is there any reason Camelbacks are literally double the price of everything else, other then "brand name"? Got a Kelty "Big Basin" that is essentially the same thing (chest/waist straps, several pockets - not as much as some of the Camelbacks but plenty really) and cost $20 and the equivalent Camelback was $45. The price difference in this case (assuming the 2 packs are near identical in features) will come down to 3 things: 1) Brand recognition - as you mentioned 2) Warranty - CamelBak doesn't have any special warranty, just the typical lifetime replacement for manufacturing defects, but they may be easier to get a hold of and/or be more willing to exchange a faulty pack than some other, lesser-known brand 3) Materials - The cheaper pack may feel very similar but may use a fabric that is a different denier or a lower quality zipper/elastic/other small part. The stitching may also use cheaper thread or use a simpler stitching pattern (the order in which seams are crossed and how the fabric was held/stretched during the sewing process can make a big difference). So if you can identify quality materials and workmanship then you'll probably be fine either way.

Most other high schools in our area also had teams, and while they tended to be more urban than us, very few of them were "rich".

Is the paper meant to be a hypothetical? Like "how could this plant POTENTIALLY cause invasive management issues?" If that is the case, the same Auckland plan mentions how this palm is very similar to a native species, it shares the same habitat, and can propagate itself quite easily.

If my assumption is correct, they offer travel packages that include help in setting up a life abroad, such as getting a cell phone and setting up bank accounts. This seems like something that most intelligent people could do on their own and probably isn't worth a multi-thousand dollar assistance package.

haveblue posted:They are, actually. There are little bits of magnetized metal inside those security tags, and the gates respond to them. They might also respond to other metal objects. This is incorrect, at least at the vast majority of retail stores. While it is true that those security tags do contain metal, that is not what the sensors by the door are detecting. Long story short the metal in the security tags vibrates at a very specific frequency. The door sensors look for that frequency. Read more here - Acousto-magnetic systems If they looked for metal they would go off all the time for belt buckles, poo poo people bought at other stores, etc. Besides the amount of metal in those security tags is tiny, they are less than paper thin. Airports don't have metal detectors that good. A more likely explanation is that you have an old security tag sewn into your jacket/gun holster/pants and it has re-activated. This happens all the time and is meant to be a "feature" so that stores can re-activate tags from returned merchandise. It happens when the tag gets enough of a magnetic charge (I suspect this often comes about in old tags from exposure to static electricity).

Obviously I don't know about specific examples, but I've never known a store to have regular metal detectors. Are you sure it was the gun, and not let's say a jacket you happen to wear often? I've even seen these tags hidden inside the soles of shoes. Something that happens A LOT (like multiple times per day) is a woman comes in, door beeps, and she goes, "Oh it must be my cell phone!" Wrong, modern cell phones do not set off these systems. 95% of the time it turns out to be an old security tag that is sewn into the lining of her purse or wallet (the other 5% is a DVD she borrowed from the video store). Keep in mind these things have different sensitivity settings, too. We got a lot of grief from customers because "Your sensors always beep at me! That doesn't happen anywhere else!" That's because we had our sensors turned nearly to full sensitivity and I knew several stores in town whose systems would barely work even if you held a security tag right next to the drat tower. We caught every item in town that some lazy clerk elsewhere didn't properly de-sensitize.

That's the only time I've had one of those alarms go off on me, other than stuff that didn't get properly demagnetized right before I walked out of the store. I'm not saying something wasn't happening, god knows I don't know every variable here, but I'd bet good money it wasn't the gun itself. Gun holsters can have tags all over/inside them and the small RFID tags are drat hard to find, even sewn in between the linings. Sounds like you may have tried to put the gun through separately, which doesn't necessarily mean you didn't set off the towers with another item on you. The range of detection is up to 3 feet depending on sensitivity setting/brand/etc. Standing back and holding an item into the range of the sensors won't necessarily keep a hidden tag on your person far enough away to trigger the alarm. For men it's most often a wallet or jeans. Edit: Stores that have these types of scanners will have a de-magnetizing thingy for their merchandise.
