Travel > Air Travel & Airlines How to prepare a cat for air travel
1 of 3

To drug or not to drug? That is the question. I prefer to think of it as, "avoiding life-threatening allergic response...just in case!" I had a 6 week old kitten I needed to take on 3 flights from Ontario, California to Albany, New York as carry-on luggage. While I wasn't too keen on "drugging" her, I decided to opt for the ...

Health & Fitness > Surgery How to tell if vertebroplasty is right for you
1 of 1

Let's back up to what a vertebroplasty is actually an indication for. Our spinal vertebrae are pretty thick bones, but even they can be fractured from a fall, trauma, or general osteoporosis (the bone is too weak/porous to support itself). When this happens, you may feel a focal, excrutiating pain in your spine, if severe di... More..

Personal Finance > Banking Basics Should we switch from paper to electronic bank (and other) statements?Smallicon
7 of 12

I'm not going to go into the wasted paper of monthly bill/checking statements as that seems to already been touched on, but I'd like to focus on one thing: how many people I know that have absolutely *no idea!* how much money they have in their checking/savings accounts. My best friend uses her debit card arbitrarily never s... More..

With 74 emails already in this thread, what can I say to add my two cents and possibly help another fellow man in this quagmire of the paid survey world-real, scam, or a little of both? I have just one little website for you: www.amylynn.org/home. This woman has waded through the trenches and come up with the best list of re... More..

Personal Finance > Managing Credit Should you pay off your credit or invest in a mutual fund?
6 of 8

Suze Orman said there is such a thing as "good debt" and "bad debt." "Good debt" is my car loan, 82K student loan, etc. And there is only one type of "bad debt", which weighs heavily on whoever acquires it (and we all know what that is!). I spent the last year and a half paying off 11K of credit card debt I had accumulated i... More..

Health & Fitness > Diet & Weight Loss Losing weight the safe way
4 of 5

By and large, our country as a whole is kinda lazy. Those that take the initiative to take on the major task of losing weight and getting in shape all by their lonesome are few and far between. We want to be told what to eat, when to eat it, and how much of it we're allowed. We want to be told what to do for exercise, how mu... More..

Travel > Africa & Middle East Travel destinations: Africa, mountain regions
3 of 3

The bulk of mountain climbers to East Africa are gung-ho about climbing Kilimanjaro...which is perfectly fine and certainly a notch on your belt. But what alot of people don't know is that Africa's 3rd highest mountain is just as breathtaking and feels like all your own when climbing it. I lived in Arusha, Tanzania for a yea... More..
