QUESTION:
Can you use a jogging stroller for a newborn infant?
Or are they recommended for babies a little older? Someone gave me a Safety 1St.jogging stroller and it doesn’t seem to have much support. It wasn’t given to me for jogging, because I don’t jog. A friend of mine bought it after adopting a baby and they didn’t like it because the wheels don’t swivel. I find it bulky and cumbersome.
Anyone else experience with this gear?? Thanks-
ANSWER:
Here is what I found;“If you are going to be running with a newborn, ensure your stroller comes with a head and neck support. If it does not, you will need to purchase one. They are the same types that are used for newborns in car seats. It is recommended by many that children under 12 months old do not ride in jogging strollers at all due to the possible rough ride. If you choose to take your newborn, take care to ensure his ride is as good as yours. Stay on the smooth pavement, recline the seat as far back as it will go and ensure the harness is properly fitting and locked.”

QUESTION:
What items did you need to buy for your 2nd baby?
I’m pregnant with my second child and my nesting phase is in full swing. My husband insists we don’t need a thing since both are boys and the new baby will probably be able to wear most of his brother’s clothes. We’ll need some seasonal items like a snowsuit (first born in early September, this one due in late December). I know we need a new crib mattress (1st will be using his in his toddler bed) and probably a double stroller but is there anything else you found you needed for your second child? The boys will be just over 2 years apart so I don’t think I need to worry about safety recalls on any old gear.-
ANSWER:
Right there with you girl!I mostly had to buy small stuff. I had a shower but only got a few things which included a boppy, bouncy seat, diaper bag, and some toiletries. Last night I bought bottles, changing pad cover, another crib sheet and a good thermometer.
I had all the big stuff, like crib,bassinett, playpen, and high chair. I just didn’t have some essentials. My nesting syndrome is bad. I am 32 weeks. I only have a few more things to get, like a head support for thecar seatt and a mirror for the car.
Good luck!

QUESTION:
Small SUV or Family Sedan?
We’ll be in the market for a new car later this year/early next year. We have a 99 Camry just over 110K (00 resale???). We’ll be trying to start a family next year, so we’ll need something to tote baby & gear.We’re deciding among many models but the front runners are: Mits. Outlander, Honda CRV, Accord, Toyota Rav4, new Camry, or Subaru Forester (not sure about trims on any model yet).
We’ve done research on Cons Rpts and now we’re looking for opinions from ppl who have owned, researched and/or test driven these cars. Important to us: gas mileage (live in So. Cal), best cash price, reliability, safety, owner satisfaction, replacement parts costs, room/ease for family (getting baby in and out of car seat), warranty, and comfort (I’m 5’1″, he’s 6’1″). Looks, luxury, & bells & whistles not that impt. Loans/Lease deals not important at all.
We don’t want to test drive 6 cars, so if you can help us narrow the field, it’d be much appreciated.

ANSWER:
I own a Honda CR-V, and it is a wonderful vehicle, not a scam as others have stated. I have a Great Dane and need the room, and live in rural Wisconsin so I need the AWD and ground clearance. It looks like for your needs a Camry or Accord would be great, unless you plan on using it for camping or hauling dogs to the dog park, etc. You have to think long term on these things. I have a big dog and am a triathlete so I needed a larger vehicle to fit my life into. Honda and Toyota are the way to go right now for gas mileage, reliability and overall satisfaction. I owned a Toyota for many years with only a small transmission problem later in it’s mileage. Subaru has a lot of catching up to do to be considered a contender in the auto world, and Mazda nearly went bankrupt a few years ago. Mitsubishi has great engines but if you look at the numbers for safety, not as good. If you only plan on a couple babies in the near future, here is how I would rate the vehicles from best to worst for YOU.
1. Honda Accord
2. Toyota Camry (very close second, trans. problems in some)
3. Honda CR-V
4. Toyota Rav4
5. Mitsubishi Outlander
6. Subaru Forester
Good luck!

QUESTION:
Should we get compensated?
I rent from a very big rental corporation, Canada wide, mainly known as Boardwalk. Can I say that?? Anyways over 40 townhouse units were flooded with sewage, from a city sewer line break! Water was turned off and we were all told the problem would be fixed asap. NOT!!Tuesday the incident happened, we were sent letters stating our basements were full of raw sewage, not to go near the water. Then all water sources were shut off to the units! After the third day emergency water tanks were brought in, again we were told it would be up to 48 hours till things were fine again. Then the Friday, porta potties were brought in with hand washing units?? and 36 bottles of water were given to all 40 town houses.
Then we received a letter stating that we the people had to physically move and empty our basements for cleaning crews to go in. No cleaning gear, no safety suits, we all had to go in and get sewer soaked items out of our basements.
Saturday and Sunday there were no crews, we ran out of water, we had to phone the city for more water. Monday came and finally our basements were cleaned but by a mickey mouse cleaning crew!! probably the cheapest crew in the field. The crews they did send in a week later wore head to toe safety gear; while the tenants had no protection.
Boardwalk says they are not responsible that we should have had tenant insurance. The majority of families did not have insurance. Most families had babies and children, for days of hauling water and using outhouses. The City says its not their fault! its Boardwalks fault, Boardwalk says they owe us nothing in return. Boardwalk takes no responsibility especially when we pay ,295.00 a month for rent!! Not to mention the fact workers of Boardwalk were very ignorant and condescending when people would phone about concerns.
Does anyone have any ideas or possible solutions to this problem? Its not only me, its 39 other units including me who are looking for some kind of compensation and help with this huge poorly handled problem. Things have gotten fixed, and we all lost alot of things, but its just not good enough.
We did have media here 3 days in a row Global was nice enough to handle our story!! The public now knows, but whats going to happen now?? A petition is going around for lower rent? But? I don’t know if that will help???
-
ANSWER:
You probably have a case. You should contact an attorney, and have him file a lawsuit on behalf of all the tenants.

QUESTION:
Dear Christians ,What can be the meaning of the most terrible dream I saw on April 24,2008,at about 3:30 A.M?
I have never experienced such a horrible and terrible dream so far in my life.In the dream I saw millions & millions of fat elphants ( young and old including the baby ones ) coming down from the North marching towards the South. They were in innumarable gangs occupying all areas of the plains destroying all agricultural forms and fields .There was no place unoccupied by the gang elephants .In order to escape from the elphants we some people were travelling in a 4 wheeler ( Jeep ).Since all roads were too fully occupied by the gang elephants, we suffered a lot, And in some places the driver applied the reverese gear and drove fast backward to escape from being caught by the elaphants . Since the van was useless ,we all began to run across the muddy corn fields where too was no safety for us.My wife was holding our eldest son and I was holding our 1 year old daughter . In great horror we were running here & there unsafe . It was dusk. We were afraid that we may hit at the elephants.
Within some time ,from the plains millions of the elephants climbed upon all mountains. Hence some poeple who wnated to run away to the mountains too could not do that .In the dream ,no building or any other construction guaranteed safety for humanity from the reach of the elephants .Night fell .The cry of the whole humanity was reverberating everywhere.The whole planet was thus engulfed with terror,horror ,misery and sorrow …!When I got up from sleep ,with an atmost sad heart , I couldn’t understand what can be its meaning. After some time , the voice from my inner heart spoke to me that God the Creator of every thing is not at all satisfied with the ways how people enjoy licentious and immoral sex orgies .
I was clearely reminded of the Bible verses :
” …Then when you eat and are satisfied ,
be careful that you do not forget the LORD ,who brought you out of Egypt ,out of the land of slavery ”
( Bible : Deuteronomy 6:11 ).
“When you have eaten and are satisfied,praise the LORD your God for the good land he has given you .Be careful that you do not forget the LORD your God ,failing to observe his commands,his laws and his decrees that I am giving you this day …”
( Bible: Deuteronomy 8:10-11)” When I fed them ,they were satisfied ;
when they were satisfied ,they became proud;then they forgot me.”
( Bible : Hosea 13:6 ).“…you are destroyed ,O Israel,
because you are against me ,
against your helper…”
( Bible : Hosea 13:9 )“I supplied all their needs,yet they committed adulery
and thronged to the houses of prostitutes.They are well-fed ,lusty stallions ,each neighing for another man’s wife.
Should I not punish them for this ? ”
declares the LORD .
Should I not avenge myself
on such a nation as this ?Go through her vineyards and ravage them,but do not destroy them completely.
Strip off her branchess ,
for these people do not belong to the LORD.”
( Jeremiah 5:7b-10
” You rely on your sword ,you do detestable things ,and each of you defiles his neighbour’s wife.Should you then possess the land?”
( Bible :Ezekiel 33:26 )” In you are those who dishonour their fathers’ bed;
in you are those who violate women during their period,when they are ceremonially unclean.In you one man commits a detestable offence with his neighbour’s wife,another shamefully defiles his daughter-in-law,and another violates his sister,his own father’s daughter
In you men accept bribes to shed blood ;
you take usury and excessive interest and make unjust gain from your neighbours by extortion.And you have forgotten me ,declares the Sovereign LORD.”
( Bible :Ezeliel 22:10- 12 )
When I dicussed the dream with my wife she told that it can be of a terrible famine which may threat the whole world like any thing.During the evening ,as usual we (with our two children ) went up to the upper terrace of our house and prayed to God to first of all forgive us all our transgressions and iniquities towards the Lord’s Commandments.We prayed for the whole world too.
Dear Christians ,shall we all humble ourselves before our Lord,Redeemer and Helper atleast a bit today itself.
May God save the world.Amen.
[ a small spelling correction please :
Please note the nineth line from below there is word " threat ".Please read it as " threaten ". Thank you friends ]Again ,whenever someone asks some very serious questions there are some people trying to just teas or humiliate the askers.What would the they lose if they don’t just answer ?Why should they try to humiliate the askers?
Our friend gordooo2 says,” Why did you post this here? if v want a sermon we will go to church!! I come on here to read jokes!!!.
I know well that I am not that much fool to send my questions to such wrong sections.When we speak of dreams it automatically goes to jokes and riddles.Perhapes I might have failed to notice it keenly .Is it a great mistake with me ? More over gordooo2 says that he would go to church if he wants some sermon .I don’t know what sermon does he hear in his church to fill him with proper maturity .I speak of a terrible thing (of course Biblical too ) ,but gordooo2 wants jokes
Again ,with pussycat : He too is such a type. Purely selfish people ,and that is why they always try to criticise others.
When we try to send some personal explanations ,O…they just hide behind curtains and just show their Profiles that they don’t receive E-mails.What nonsense these people are doing by purely hiding behind the curtains…?I Do my duty only to the Humanity.
To be frank ,I am agaisnt Lie.
I am against inequality .
I am against oppressors .
I am against Corruptions and Exploitations.
I am against Immoralities which put to shame every human being.
If ‘A’ carries out an immoral activity towards B’s wife ,B is put to shame .Why can’t every one be a B .I am fighting for every one’s safety only.In none of my questions I ask any unnecessary thing other than the present global problems . I am not at all such a mean person to be interested in mere jokes when the whole world is to face greater problems .I may be against bad people and not against the good .

ANSWER:
Is one of the elephants Horton. He hears even the littlest who.Anyway. I can ask God. Obviously the elephants are a form of a threat to destroy our agriculture & economy.
And I have been aware of a lot of concerns about our economy.
But then the attack on the agriculture could be as simple as the enemy attacking our bees. As the bees need help. We need to learn what is hurting them. But the bees are hurt from the south west to the north west.
So? This would be an attack from the North. Not the bees dying then. So we have a date & time. And I think that we need to ask God for discernment. As long as this is a real dream & not a joke. God gives me answers to riddles like this sometimes later, regarding a yahoo question.
Or maybe it just appears to be a bigger problem than what it really is. And that is what your fear is. Something seems to be a huge problem you can’t solve. When it isn’t that big after all. Just guessing here. Maybe you are making sexual imorality bigger than what it really is.
The truth is that there are many sexual abuses to children going on that is getting uncovered. And elephants do represent a big problem.

QUESTION:
What decent Parent would???
Leave their young children in a car by themselves in a busy carpark at a busy store? I had only ever seen things like this on the news, until this past week, on Wednesday afternoon (was fairly warm and sunny) we pulled into carpark and could hear a car horn going crazy, looked around briefly nope couldn’t figure out who it was, until my step daughter (12) saw, 2 small children (all of the age of myabe 2yrs old 3 at the most) both running amok in this car, blasting the horn constantly playing with the gear shift and indicators , anything they could push they did. where was there mother – inside too busy gasbagging to other shoppers. Grrrr was not impressed.
Then yesterday afternoon it was really warm and sunny, and pulled into same carpark and my step daughter said “Mum some idiot has left a lil baby alone in their car”, went and looked and yep, there in a car seat was a lil one (maybe 4 months old) plus what looked to be a 1 -2 yr old both sitting in back of the car all windows up.
WHY? Why do parents do this? I just can’t understand how people can be so damn stupid,I would never leave any of my kids in the car, even if it’s hassle to me to drag all 4 around, I don’t care their health and safety come first. Doesn’t it just make you angry to see parents leave their kids in cars?
For the one calling me names ASSUMING I didn’t report it, you can take a flying jump, I DID REPORT IT! immediately.with store staff (have friends and family who work there) and called the police from their phone (forgot mine) so not only did the cops come but their number plates were written down by the staff at store so if they came back they knew to look and make sure no kids are left in the car.
Sorry Correction, there was no name calling ( my step daughters were just talking about name calling and I wrote that down instead lol)
PollyAnn, it makes you ANGRY that YOU ASSUMED I didn’t report it, where did I say that? If I didn’t report something like that it would make me just as bad as the idiot parents who do it.
and Amy- please you can’t be that knaive, 10 minutes in a car CAN and HAS killed young children (and pets) if it’s really hot out, cars heat up like pressure cookers in seconds.-
ANSWER:
I was charged last year with breaking and entering, after I smashed a car window to get a couple of lethargic kids out.
It is the most disgusting thing to do, and there is no excuse for it. EVER. I don’t leave any of my 5 in the car, ever. I get them in and out like I do.If I see kids in a car, I go into the nearby shop and ask loudly for the staff to call the police – *A child is dying in a locked car*
I have no shame at all. Makes me sick to my stomach. Then those who leave their dogs in the car, grrrrr.

QUESTION:
Does Obama want to nationalize oil, tax gas, make the US dependent on foreign oil and weaker?
BP wanted a big deal with Libya, and Libya wanted their nonsick Lockerbie terrorist in exchange for a HUGE contract, so Obama helped them like BP helped him, massively, during his campaign. Many Americans were killed in the Lockerbie attack, and Obama said zero. Obama also gave Qadafi .5 million recently and he’s linked to Qadafi through Wright/Farrakhan who met with him in Tripoli pertaining to Islamic USAfrica and Qadafi called Obama muslim brother…plus Qadafi is linked to Odinga for whom Obama campaigned in Kenya (illegally).
Obama wanted fuel for his cap and tax, and to mock drill baby drill, and to dish out a hefty helping of punishment to southern tea party gumps, and to get China to buy more debt in exchange for it taking over the gulf seafood industry. China is already gearing up to meet the need. Obama also wants to raise taxes on gas and eventually nationalize the oil industry (into ruin, as Chavez did).
And BP, being one of Obama’s biggest donors, would not be harmed financially because American taxpayers would pay the insurance to cover the rig loss plus it sells the chemical used for clean up (never mind that hay works better and is practically free and nontoxic and adsorbs oil at a 1:200 ratio). Halliburton, which built and can we say—blew– the rig (every safety valve had to have been turned off simultaneously) would be rewarded with a 0million no bid contract directly from the Obama regime, and nobody would be the wiser since Obama sent in SWAT teams to prevent any other investigators.
This all keeps the US dependent on foreign oil and weaker, and ultimately Obama will seek to nationalize the oil industry.
The oil is going to swoop around to the East Coast and even go up the mouth of the Potomac.
Obama really stuck it to the tea party gulf gumps, must find it really amusing.
Obama received a total of ,051 from BP During his time in the Senate and while running for president, Obama received a total of ,051 from BP and is the top recipient of BP PAC and individual money over the past 20 years, according to financial disclosure records.http://cryptogon.com/?p=15204
http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0510/36783.html
While running for the Senate and during his presidential campaign, Obama collected more than ,000 from BP’s political-action committee as well as from the company’s employees,

ANSWER:
I think you’ll find it was the right wing governments of Bush I and Thatcher that are at the heart of the Lockerbie miscarrage of justice, so perhaps not bring Obama into this one.They guided the investigation away from the real culprits (Iranian funded terrorists) because they needed Iran’s support in the Gulf War. Iran and Islamic terrorists wanted vengance for the US Navy’s actions when it shot down an Iran Air airliner killing many Iranian civilllians (the US warship had illegally entered Iranian waters and placed itself in danger and took the horrendously wrong decision to shot down what it suspected to be a fighter jet).Libya was one of only a few nations that backed Iraq’s right to Kuwaiti land, and therefore the US decided it was best to blame Libya, rather than Iran for the Lockerbie bombing.

QUESTION:
PlanB seems to be my only hope, or am I over thinking this?
well it’s that time again, where one person and another fall into a hole of decisions, I’ll give you a quick story plot…Lady friend and I have a few drinks, get a lil’ intimate, slip a rubber, glove, get strapped, condom, w/e you’d like to call it, but before we do, I slip it in with out any safety, just have a little four-play fun. I’ve read a lot about ejaculation, and I keep doing what I’m doing, just being reckless, well last night, we tried these new Trojan condoms – Fire&Ice, but burnt the hell out of her…as it does quite a bit for myself, this was just a few hours ago, so listen up…we then decide that lets just do what we do, and see what happens, those exact words have been repeating themselves over in my head…I can’t afford a baby, I’m 20, going to college, barely even hanging on…we had sex, i pulled out a few seconds before even having the “bigbang” feeling, I urinated, so any left over sperm would flow out, and not come on the next pre ejaculation, so then we have more sex, no condom, but no finish that round. I’m a bit worried, I have these options, and I prefer, not ever trying this again. I’m going somewhere in life, but sometimes I make reckless choices and don’t take lead and say no, I want to start a new leaf, so help me decide.
1. PlanB — taken after non protected sex,(before 72hrs to take affect) drops eggs, and mistral cycle flips. — ***** but does PlanB, make the women infertile? she hasn’t taken it in years, and it’s her only scare…Is PlanB bad!? for once and a while?
2. Wait it out, it’s been 10 days since her last period, and she not ovulating yet, but you can get pregnant anytime…just more likely then…
3. I can’t go thru with abortion, so I won’t even list it…I just think i should spend dollars on PlanB…and not risk everything. I want kids, but the time isnt now, I’m just turning gears in my mind and need advice, i was as honest as can be.appreciate your help.
Pro & Cons of PlanB?-
ANSWER:
Do the plan B. It’s the best and Cheapest way by far. Plus pregnancy is going to be way worse on her than the plan B pill. There are studies that show it hurst and not..Plan B
