Diabetes is a medical disorder characterized by varying or persistent hyperglycemia (elevated blood sugar levels), especially after eating. All types of diabetes share similar symptoms and complications at advanced stages. Hyperglycemia itself can lead to dehydration and ketoacidosis. Longer-term complications include cardiovascular disease (doubled risk), chronic renal failure (it is the main cause for dialysis), retinal damage which can lead to blindness, nerve damage which can lead to erectile dysfunction (impotence), gangrene with risk of amputation of toes, feet, and even legs. The more serious complications are more common in people who have a difficult time controlling their blood sugars with medications (glycemic control).

You must have a copy of your credit report from the company that pulled it - i.e., Equifax, FICO or Experian in order to file a dispute. I personally go through Equifax when I have problems such as these. On the credit report, they have a number (they don't publish on their website) for you to call if you would like to dispute something you're seeing. You can also make a dispute online on their website at:\nhttps://www.econsumer.equifax.com/consumer/sitepage.ehtml?forward=online_dispute\n\nYou may be able to get the Equifax folks to transfer you (if you don't have the credit report in hand) to the appropriate number, but this is their Fraud On My Credit Report number: 1-888-766-0008.\n\nI hope this helps! \n\nGood luck!

If it falls down from the top of the cliff to the ground 200 meters below, it'll hit the ground in 6.413696282 seconds if it doesn't strike any object on the way down. If all it did was to trip and hit the ground still on top of the cliff and took 20 seconds to do so, it probably struggled to remain up (on either 2 or 4 paws) and probably will remain its original color.\n\nHowever, since the bear spent 20 seconds falling a distance that should have taken it < 7 seconds, then it probably fought its way down, bouncing from boulder to boulder, treee to tree, as it fell. Therefore I expect the bear to be colored some brown (from dirt), some green (from brush), and some red (from torn skin & fur).

Tipping is typically related to service, picking up food from a restaurant hardly qualifies as such.\n\nThere is no hard-set rule to tip for carry-out, but it's not customary.\n\nThat said, it's also your preference, if you feel you should or you visit the place often you might want to consider it. I still tip my favorite buritto place as it's a token of appreciation and I know how little they make.. I do tip less than if I ate there.

Since housing is usually the biggest expense, I would say cut that first--downsize, or rent instead of pay mortgage. The next easiest thing to cut is food expense--eat at home instead of at restaurants. Also, cable/internet/phone can cost hundreds a month so you might consider consolidating those or looking into VOIP.\n\nAlso, you don't have to stop working completely--you can try consulting or doing a home-based business to keep cash flowing in.

When you use an Ethernet cable to connect your computer to a hub, switch or router, you use what's called an MDI (straight through) cable.\n\nIn order to connect one computer to another directly, you must use an Ehternet cable with a different pinout called an MDI-X (cross over) cable.\n\nThe reason for this is because your computer is a "terminal" device. It transmits data on a specific wire and expects to receive data on a specific other wire. Then you connect it to a "host" device and it expects same thing, but on the opposite wires.\n\nFor more information, see the article on Ehternet on howstuffworks.com\n\nhttp://computer.howstuffworks.com/ethernet.htm

They don't have to. If you have a divorce decree that gives you rights to claim a dependant (sometimes annually or every other year, or not at all) then the custodial parent must honor that. In fact you can file with the deduction by providing copies of the signature page and the tax portion of the decree. If you do not have a divorce decree stating you have rights to claim....you have NO right to claim without the permission of the custodial parent who will have to provide form 8332.\n\n*** I'll qualify that, by saying the other person has legal custody, that is an indication that the child lived with the custodial parent as well for half or more of the year and that that parent paid for at least half of the support of said child...or that the parent has sole custody of the child....That all being true...you cannot claim the child without permission of the custodial parent.

The following is a partial response to a woman who asked basically this same question..why she was having these fantasies...\n\n "Being raped is an experience in which a woman is completely overpowered and totally helpless ‑- the complete opposite of being in control. It sounds like there's a part of you that would occasionally like to be able to lie back, let go, and let somebody else take over. \n\nRape fantasies are also common among women who have sexual shame or inhibitions from their childhood or past relationships. These women often enjoy the rape fantasy because they are not choosing to have sex and therefore are not accountable for any "sins." \n\nFurthermore, the fantasy centers on a man who is so caught up in his passion and desire that he has to take you now. The idea of that level of passion is very exciting for many women."

People's digestive system is not actually set up to process milk very well. Although you get a good dose of calcium and vitamin D from milk, you can get these things from other sources, without running your system down. Milk and milk products can enhance allergies and intolerances to food and other outside stimuli, and increase mucus production. I don't know if orange juice is 'better' per se, because the vitamins it provides are completely different. I can say your body processes it easier, it gives you a bunch of vitamins, if the juice doesn't have sugary additives it isn't as fattening, and it doesn't have all the nasty side effects that milk can have, (whether you notice them or not... in fact you probably wouldn't notice them unless you cut milk out of your diet and then tried putting it back in). So I guess my vote is Orange Juice.

It is also possible that there are numerous gods, such as those found in Hinduism. It is also quite possible that no supernatural beings exist.

Holy christmas (literally!)... the last poster, be careful.\n\nI was diagnosed in 1999. I didn't start taking medications until 2004 (had a bit of denial there)...\nI got a flare-up that forced me to think harder about my future (and a great fiance to boot!).\n\nA lot of people go on the interferons, and Glatiramer acetate, which is what I'm on. When I decided what to go on, I thought about what I'd have to do for it. I was a bit worried about giving myself a shot, and I figured that I would need to have the least intrusive method of medication delivery... so I decided subcutaneous (just under the skin). That cut down the list of interferons... \n\nThen I thought about side effects, a lot of the interferons have flu like symptoms. When I started the meds, I was feeling weak, pins and needly, and limpy. I said, do I want to have a cold on top of that. No siree.\n\nI mean, you really have to talk to your NEURO, and what (s)he recommends. It just so happened that the first NEURO in 1999, recommended Avonex as he was drinking out of an Avonex branded mug (no foolin!). That is what turned me off from the med idea in the first place. My SECOND neuro, he asked me my concerns, and we decided on Copaxone. Yes, it's daily, but it's under the skin, and it just has local reactions for me as a side effect.\n\nI WAS PETRIFIED of giving myself these shots. Many of the companies (my drugs, included) have autojectors, so you don't even have to see the needle. Copaxone (or my doctor, I can't remember, it was so long ago!)... required me to have a home care nurse there the first time to show me how to administer the drugs. I gave it to myself without hesitation the first time! I am a little wary of someone else doing it (though she had recommended that my fiance learn how, too).\n\nResult? Well, there's not much to say! (that's a good thing)... my original symptoms had faded, and I don't know if that was the copaxone or what. I've been on it since 2/2004 (wow! going on 2 years soon!), and I have NO NEW LESIONS! boy, that's more exciting than I thought it was going to be.\n\nNow, your milage WILL vary, and unlike my first time experience, you will LIKELY have to go through a few drugs to find one you like.\n\nGood luck to you!

The sky appears blue because the gases(mainly nitrogen and oxygen) present in our atmosphere vibrate at a specific frequency. From the light that we can see, ie.. blue, green, red, yellow...etc, the the higher frequency colors are absorbed more by the atmosphere than the lower frequency(actually they're scattered, they still make it to us but indirectly whereas the yellowish color of the sun is more direct). So blue, green, and violet(violet having the shortest wavelength) are absorbed by the atmosphere, while red, yellow and orange are allowed through. The color of blue that we perceive the sky varies from day to day based on the content of gases present and the frequency that they vibrate. It works the same way as light passing through a blue balloon, except in this case the balloon is our atmosphere.

At this point, it isn't possible to grow organs, but at some point this may be possible. The idea would be to take some cells and "instruct" them, by giving the right amounts of certain molecules, to grow into certain types of cells that would form an organ.\n\nIt will be easier to make replacement cells of a certain type, such as bone marrow, or nerve cells, than to make a whole organ that has many types of cells and a complex architecture. We're still trying to learn all the signals that go into telling cells how to become one type versus another, so there is still a ways to go.\n\nThe stem cell issue comes in because most cells in the adult have already decided what they will be when they grow up, and they can't go back and become anything different. Stem cells haven't decided yet, so they could be "told" what to be, when we know all the instructions. The research is very slow now in the United States, because of limitations from the government, but other countries are pulling ahead nicely (and some of our best scientists are leaving to go to those places).

How big is the moon?\nThe moon is about 2,000 miles across. \n\nHow far is it from Earth to the moon?\nIt is about 250,000 miles from Earth to the moon. \n\nHow old is the moon?\nThe moon is the same age as the Earth and the rest of the solar system — about 4.5 billion years. Our solar system was all formed at that time. \n\nHow did the moon form?\nWe think that the moon and Earth formed at about the same time, back when our whole solar system was formed. Earth was forming from many chunks of rock and icy material. Possibly a big chunk hit the new Earth and knocked loose a big piece, which became the moon. \n\nHow hot and cold does it get on the moon?\nAs you may have learned, the moon doesn't have any air around it. The air that surrounds our earth acts as a nice blanket to keep us warm and comfy! But the moon, since it doesn't have this blanket, gets much colder than the earth — and much hotter than the earth. On the side of the moon that the sun is shining on, the temperature reaches 260°Fahrenheit! That is hotter than boiling. On the dark side of the moon, it gets very cold, -280° Fahrenheit. \n\nWhat is the surface of the moon like?\nThe surface of the moon has about two inches of dust. Much of this dust has fallen to the moon from the spaces between the planets over the last several billions years. It probably feels pretty soft. You can see this in some pictures taken by the astronauts of their footprints on the moon. \n\nHow many holes are in the moon?\nWe call those holes "craters." They are the places where many years ago meteors hit the surface of the moon and put dents into it. There are thousands of big craters, but even more little ones. There are probably millions of little craters on the moon! Some are only an inch or so across. \n\nWhy does the moon have big rocks?\nThe moon is made up of various kinds of rocks. These rocks are fairly similar to the rocks on earth. But on earth, we have wind and rain that help wear the rocks down into sand and dirt. There is no air or wind on the moon, so the rocks don't get worn down as they do on the earth. \n\nHow many moons are there all together?\nEarth has only one moon. If you count all the moons around all the planets in our solar system, there are 61 (Earth has one, Mars has two, Jupiter has 16, Saturn has 18, Uranus has 15, Neptune has 8, and Pluto has one). There may be more that we haven't discovered yet! \n\nWhy does the moon change its shape (as in full, half, and quarter moon)?\nThe bright part of the moon is the part that the sun is shining on. This is like daytime on earth. The dark part is in shadow, like night on earth. Now the moon goes around the earth once every 29 days (approximately). \n\nAt new moon, the moon and the sun are on the same side of Earth. We see the part of the moon that is in shadow, so the moon is dark. Then the moon moves around in its orbit. At first quarter, it has gone one-fourth of the way around Earth. Now we can see part of the moon that is sunlit, but part still in shadow. Note that if the sun is setting in the west, the bright part of the moon is on the side toward the sun and the dark part is away. \n\nAbout a week later, the moon has moved halfway around its orbit. Now it is on the opposite side of Earth, away from the sun. Now we see only the sunlit side — that is the full moon. Note that if the sun is setting in the west, the moon is just rising in the east. \n\nAbout a week later, the moon has moved now three-fourths of the way around in its circle around Earth. Once again only part of the moon is sunlit and part is dark. Now you can see the moon in the morning, and note that once again the sunlit side is on the side towards the sun, and the shadow side away. Another week and we are back to the new moon. \n\nIt's easier to demonstrate if you have a ball to represent the moon and a flashlight for the sun. Have someone stand several feet away, holding the flashlight so it shines on the bal

On paper I would say Chelsea. They have the best and most expensive players. They bring 20 million dollar subs off the bench. They have dominated Premier League. But the best team on paper, and the best players don't always mean the best team as we saw with Real Madrid the past few years.

The $2 should be subtracted from the $27, not added to it -- since they were overcharged by $5, the room actually cost $25.\n\nThey ending up paying $27, $25 for the room and $2 to the bellhop. That $27 plus the $3 refund is the original $30

There are a lot of options these days- cervical cap, diaphragm, sponge, birth control pill, IUD, female condom, Depo-Provera, inplant, Ortho Evra, an NuvaRing. It would be best to talk to your doctor about which choice is right for you and your body. I would not recommend withdrawl as it has a very high rate of failure, and is like not using anything at all.
