Who's been out on the Potomac lately?
You know, I honestly think it reads low but I took a 5lb weight and hung it on there. It read 4.99...Maybe it only reads low for fish? Ya know what? I actually just put a 5 lb weight on my scale and it read a little under 5 lb..... I'm starting to be confused The mystery only deepens! LMAO. What the heck? Once I get some dough I'm going to spring for one of these:http://www.***.com/descpageACCBERKLEY-BTDS.html You know I was thinking maybe he held it wrong. So I put the weight back on and held it every funny way I can.... it still works perfectly. I think your scale is off Dan ;D

D'oh!
Often when you spill something onto a laptop it will just fry/stick up the keyboard. If a key doesn't work its too late anyways - that trick won't help. The only thing this will fix is sticky keys from the juice. If your keys arn't sticky - don't bother. On a side note I know that looks difficult but its REALLY not. -Oh and yes your lucky but it's not unusual at all. Worse can happen but it often doesn't. The keyboard is on a solid plate that is pretty well protected. This plate tends to collect liquid so it rarely make it to motherboard level unless you give it a real bath

1. Remove battery 2. Under where the battery was unscrew a couple of screws there which lead up holding in the hing cover. 3. Take the caps off the hinges on both sides of the notebook. *this is on the front side looking at the keyboard* 4. Go back to the front side of it and take off the name plate above the keyboard *BE CAREFUL! This has a small ribbon wire you want to make sure you don't rip out.* 5. Unscrew two screws in silver plate holding in the keyboard 6. pull out keyboard and disconnect its ribbon cable. 7. Wash keyboard in sink and let FULLY dry 8. Reassemble. 9. Do the smoke test - if it releases the magical smoke you did something wrong. Computers never work after they release the magical smoke ;D -I just found it on the dell site http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/systems/xpsM1530/en/SM/hingecvr.htm#wp1179905 go to have fun!

The only real way to fix this will take a little bit of work and if I knew your laptop model I can give better advice. Essentially what you need to do is remove your keyboard from the laptop*this is a lot easier then it sounds* and run it under your faucet to wash all the juice off. After this lay it up on a vent in your house to let it dry. *at least 24 hours for safety* After it is dried reinstall it and it will be as good as new. *I worked in a computer repair shop for 5 years and we have done this to hundreds of laptops trust me it works*

Who's been out on the Potomac lately?
we have fished twice in the last week on where a creek meets out into the Potomac from canoe. These baits are the only ones we found to produce. The frog did great last night at high tide and produced the biggest fish. The gold/black spinner with white trailer produced the most fish.

to those with degrees in business...
:-/English please? - I would also like to note I know many of you have done wonderful things with a business mgmt degree. I'm just saying I think that specializing still allows you to be a fantastic manager because you still get a general overview of every area. You just avoid the theory classes which from my experience anyone who works with people figures out quickly anyways.

to those with degrees in business...
CPA and retail management are two different fields. CPA is accounting, and retail management focus on the business aspect. I have to disagree that retail management is a dead end area. My dad manages retail stores his whole life, and made six figures but he retired few years ago. Accounting is a stressful job, and you need to be in the director level to make 100G plus. More stress and collect the same paycheck. Which one would you choice? Yes it is a dead end because as you said they are two different fields. If you actually read what I wrote you would understand that that was exactly my point. Oh and ill choose accounting thanks :

to those with degrees in business...
Recently graduated with accounting minor in eco. I am studying for the LSAT to continue on to law school so I have the 150 credit hours to sit for CPA certification. AKA my plan is to be in school forever. Accounting normally has a huge amount of jobs available but this economy is even knocking into the field no one wants to throw a stick at If you truly wish to do business management go for it but from my experience *sorry to those I may offend with this* I have found everyone I have met with that major is somewhere encompassing both unmotivated and retarded. Theory of management is not a study in my opinion it's a skill you develop. Even my teachers made fun of the business management students. I would also avoid finance personally since that field is flooded due to all the layoffs from the bank failures. It will probably take a quite a while for this field to recover. Four year degrees are a dime a dozen - I would highly recommend you don't stop at two years. About the only "good" position I've been offered has been in retail management and that's with a 3.4 GPA and four year degree with a few years of management experience. *Trying to avoid getting into retail again sorta a dead end area come the time I have a CPA*

poison ivy remedy
Jewlweed. I used to play in the woods all the time and get the worst poison ivy. I figured out when I was about 8 that this plant rubbed on where you wandered through the poison ivy will keep it from cropping up. Not a month and a half ago I realized I had my hand in some poison ivy, I broke off some of this plant rubbed its between my hands and continued biking, dint wash my hands till that night and had no signs of it. Make sure you rub the stalk the juice is what you need.
