1. Open Question: Help?! I'm new with all this... Air Force Wife?!?
Hi, so my name is Sarah and I'm French. I met my wonderful boyfriend on a plane last summer while I was going on vacation in the States and he was going back home on leave. He's an American, currently stationed in Europe. Anyway, we've been together since the life-changing plane ride and it's been the most fantastic time of my life. He always hints at the fact that he wants to get down on his knee and propose to me! Luckily, I'm a good student and I got scolarship to finish my Bachelors degree in the States. I'm moving there in the fall. My boyfriend just re-took the ASVAP and is now waiting for the new list of jobs to come in his base so he can crosstrain. I'm nervous that he won't be stationed in the same state as me. But anyway, love's stronger! However, I was wondering what it was like to be engaged/married to an Air Force man? If I'm on a student visa in the States, can we still get married whenever we want or it'd be considered fraud visa? Also, I want a career as a profesor or in international business but I'm slowly realizing this will be hard to balance since we'll be fully depending on his job. That's a bummer. :-( Have any of you ladies been able to have both the successful career and the marriage?! What are the pros and cons of being married to your Air Force Man?! I love mine to death and I don't care about the flaws his job may have, I just want to be fully informed about what's gonna happened to me next since I'm relatively new to this whole Air Force world. (I had never heard about it until I sat next to him on that plane!)

In addition to preserving foods, BHA is also used to preserve fats and oils in cosmetics. BHA is found in butter, meats, cereals, chewing gum, baked goods and snack foods.BHA has undergone FDA approval, but the qualities that make BHA an excellent preservative may also be implicated in health effects in humans.

9. Open Question: I'd like to become a home-based debt collector...?
I'd like to become a debt collector. Work in my own home, collecting debts. I have no idea how to go about this. I think that after I get licensed I can start asking around random small companies to let me handle their debt. (I live in a semi-small town, so this shouldn't be too hard to do.) Where can I get licensed to collect debts for the state of Utah? I'd like to start out very small, not handling too many accounts. Do I even need a license for this state? Also, I would like some tips on starting my own personal business in this field. How should I approach people? Should I get cards made up with my name and make up a company name as well? Do I need to apply for this as a business? I'd like as much information as possible, but only from people that have direct experience. I have done a lot of searching on the internet and have been thinking about this for over 10 years. Please let me know if you have any information you can give me. I have a lot of experience in the debt collection business as an employee. I'm asking about SPECIFIC information to start MY OWN debt collection business. I'd like to also add that I just moved here and I am not sure what the state laws are...etc. To the person who claimed that running their own debt collection business would be costly, I think that is wrong. I have done a lot of research on this and as a home-based business, my costs would only be for my home office (which I obviously have one) and for some small accounts that I would be buying - IF I even NEEDED to buy them. Once again, small town. If people are willing (as other businesses) to hand over accounts to me, knowing their accounts would still be paid...then that's where the market is. I see no issue with this theory. I think I should also add that I KNOW everything about the RULES governing debt collectors. It's not hard to find out. The FDCPA isn't hard to look up or understand. I also used to work as an attorney. So please, keep your lectures to yourself. I KNOW how to ACT, I need BUSINESS information.

11. Open Question: I am bi-polar/manic depressive. I don't work and am on Social Security disability.?
I am single and seeking to enter into a relationship with a women. The first question they always ask is what do you do for a living?

12. Open Question: Did the war in Iraq cause the US Recession?
Now, call me a little suspicious, but why is nobody linking the current US Recession to the Iraq war? Everybody says the cause of the current state of financial depression in the US is caused by overzealous creditors and mortgage companies loaning out money when they shouldn't have, based on the promised dream of house prices in future continuing to steadily rise as they have been doing in past. Yes, the housing market is in a slump right now. But is that the reason why so many businesses are closing, why so many people are losing their jobs, their homes, their livelihoods? Why are formally well-off American families with children being forced out of their homes onto the street? It seems to be that money is rushing out of the country away from our own people and I can only think of one cause. Could it be possible that the Iraq war is the prime cause of the recession? Call me ignorant if you will, but according to the latest figures, the Iraq war has cost the America taxpayer 10 billion a month for over 66 months now. Basically, avenging September 11th (at its basest level...and yes I know we're not supposed to talk about the oil*) has cost the US 660 billion dollars to date. It also doesn't account for a penny of the billions that will be needed to take care of the thousands of disabled fighting men and women in future, for some which may be their entire lifetime. I read that currently there are about 180,000 Iraq War veterans receiving some form of disability ranging from about $1400 annually for a 10 Rating disability to about $30,000/annually for 100 Disability with extra compensation for loss of limbs. Total Current costs about $29 billion annually. These costs will continue even after the war is over. Am I barking up the wrong tree here? Could someone explain to me how these two things aren't related? I would very much appreciate it as I have been scouring the net for an answer and I can't find one. Thank you very much. * On September 2003 George W. Bush admitted that there was no evidence linking Saddam/ Iraq to 9/11. What's up with that??

16. Open Question: Starting a small business should i use a different address other than my home?
I have a home based business. I am in the process of get a LLC or incorporated. Would it be better if I use a different address such as getting a mailbox from UPS Store? I am a penny pincher but i don't know.. the idea of having people know where my business is my home is really my only reservation that why i didn't go "legit" yet :)

17. Open Question: Where can I find a good suitcase for a very REASONABLE price for a two-week trip to Europe?
I'm planning a two-week trip to Europe (approximately one week in England and another week traveling to Paris, Amsterdam and Sweden). I already have one Swiss Army carry-on bag that I have been using for about two years. It fits in every overhead bin no matter how small the plane (it can actually fit under the seat of most airplanes). I travel very light, so I never check luggage (I use "space bags" to compact my clothing and carry a large pocketbook with my "essential items"). However, for this trip I obviously will need more than my standard luggage, but I do NOT want a giant world traveling bag. I don't like checking luggage, and I probably will not use an additional bag very often. My plan would be to send most souvenirs home (I don't buy much anyway). I will need a mix of business casual attire and casual clothes. My electronics all fit nicely in my other bag (I have a small laptop and my cellphone with the usual charging accessories). I would love to find a hard case piece for around $100-150. I basically need a place for clothes, shoes and some goodies I might bring back. Any brand suggestions as well as discount stores would be appreciated (especially those based on personal experience as I am well aware I can just search randomly online--I'm more looking for recommendations).

21. Voting Question: Sandra Reynolds a rip-off?
My daughter aged 4 last year won a local competition for the best wedding photo so my partner and i thought it would be a good idea to contact a local modelling agency. We went for Sandra Reynolds based in our home town of Norwich. There was an up front fee of £85 to cover the modelling shoot but we were told that there would be help on the day and the fee was to cover these costs. I arrived at the venue and was guided to a very cramped changing room with about 10 other children and parents. After very little input from the staff as to what was required from my daughter, she had 3 photo shoots in different outfits provided by ourselves consisting of maybe 15 shots. This was infront of the other parents and children with each lasting less than 3 mins. we were told it was to mimic a normal photo session but i disagree as i have friends in the business. We were hurried along like sheep as i have previously mentioned there were 10 young children to get through so many became irritable and this was clearly being noticed by the staff. The whole experience was not what i expected as we were under the impression it would be more intimate and personal. We were told someone would call within 2 weeks if successfull. Needless to say we weren't as my daughter didnt photograph well enough for their junior division but they did encourage us to try again later! Gut feeling i feel i was mislead and there are a lot of people outta pocket by these guys. Would of been better to pay for a photo session with a photographer and send in the results. Have you experienced the same? if so spread the word i consider myself a bit streetwise but these guys had me completely sucked in!

23. Voting Question: Was Manny Villar ever really poor?
Was Manny Villar really ever poor? AS I WRECK THIS CHAIR By William M. Esposo (The Philippine Star) Updated February 07, 2010 12:00 AM “Nakaligo ka na ba sa dagat ng basura? (Have you bathed in a sea of garbage?)” is the opening line of the jingle of Nacionalista Party presidential candidate Manny Villar which is featured in a television commercial that attempts to project him as having been one of the poorest of the poor. But was Manny Villar really one of the poorest of the poor as what his advertising has been projecting? A Chair Wrecker reader from Tondo who claimed to know the Villar family when they still resided there debunked that notion of Villar ever having been poor. This information was relayed to yours truly via our response email address. The former Villar family Tondo neighbor cited reference points to support his assertion that Manny Villar was never really poor — including the claim that Villar’s father used to have a “nikaladong (stainless steel clad)” private Jeep. During the 1950s, a nikaladong private Jeep is a status symbol in Tondo, definitely not the hallmark of a poor household. Considering how Manny Villar has been dodging the serious issues pertaining to his use of public office in order to add immense benefits and profits to his businesses, your Chair Wrecker decided to do some investigating. Guess what Manny Villar’s online bio revealed: “Manuel Villar Jr. was born on December 13, 1949 in Tondo, a densely populated district of Manila. He was the second of nine children of Manuel Villar Sr., a government employee, and Curita Bamba, a seafood dealer. As a young boy, he helped his mother sell fish, crabs, and shrimp in Divisoria to help earn money to pay for his education. Villar finished his education at Holy Child Catholic School in 1962, and finished his high school education at Mapua Institute of Technology in 1966. He attended the University of the Philippines-Diliman and earned his bachelor’s degree in business administration in 1970. He returned to the same school to earn his master’s degree in business administration in 1973.” In the early 1950s, the rich lived in the big compounds in Ermita and Pasay and what was called New Manila in Quezon City. In Tondo, you found the middle class and the poor as well. Former president Joseph Estrada also claims roots in Tondo but his family was never poor. Based on his online bio, Villar cannot really justify calling himself poor. The Villar Tondo home, as shown on his 2009 TV commercials, was made of sturdy materials. It has lasted to this day. His father was employed while his mother operated a fish, crab and shrimp dealership in lucrative Divisoria Market. It may not be Class AB household income but it is definitely not Class E. Proof that the Villar children were never really wanting is the fact that Manny Villar studied in private schools. The indigent kids went to public school. Enrolling one’s child in a private school is a middle class value and option. The indigent kids who do manage to finish high school would tend to immediately learn a craft in order to be able to earn money right away. Aspiring for a business administration master’s degree is not the usual post high school move of indigent kids. Villar narrated on his 2009 TV commercial, with Boy Abunda interviewing him, that as a young kid he thought that corned beef was soupy because that was how they used to prepare it at home. This, he claimed, was their way to ensure that everybody had a share. But the fact is that there are really two ways to cook canned corned beef. One is the dry sautéed type while the other is the soupy type where you can add potatoes and cabbage. Both the rich and the middle class enjoy corned beef both ways. Also, poor folks, especially a family of eleven, CANNOT AFFORD to eat canned corned beef. For a family of 11 to be eating corned beef confirms that the Villar family is anything but poor. That was the case then and more so now when the poor go hungry or manage to eat only one meal a day. Up to the 1980s, people from the provinces consider it a status symbol to be eating corned beef. That is why canned foodstuffs, especially corned beef, are being displayed in the sala by many households in the provinces for these to be seen by visitors. For Manny Villar to don this facade of being “poor” once upon a time just to gain political advantage should make every Filipino voter ponder as to what else he would be willing to do just to attain his objective. Wisdom from a cherished honest man Tomorrow, our family will mark the death anniversaries of our Dad and Mom who both died on the same date, four years apart. Mom passed away on February 8, 1966 while Dad passed away on February 8, 1970. Our Dad was the most honest person we knew.

24. Voting Question: My husband wants to move and I don't?
My husband works 2 hours from home (he and his dad own a business and it's based where his parents live). His schedule is really wishy washy. sometimes he'll be home for the most part of 2-3 months and then sometimes he might be gone for as many as 10 days at a time (for the most part he is here at home).. Well he wants to move to where he's closer to work and in the middle of where he works and where we currently live (where my whole family lives).. Maybe I'm being unreasonable but he's asking me to uproot my whole life and our 4 year old sons and move to a town where there is noone around who we know just so he come come home at night... mind you he leaves for work at 5 am and doesn't come home until 10 p.m when he works.. that is before we wake up and after we go to bed. Because of his work hours and mine I constantly need help from my family picking up my son from school and going to different activities b/c it's just me taking care of him for the most part (even when my husband is here). Moving where he wants to I'm an hour and fifteen min from my family and 45 min from his (who wouldn't be any help to me anyways). Am I'm being unreasonable not agreeing to take our child out of school, quit my new job that I just spent years in college to get to move to a place where we will not be close to either family. I just feel like it will be the same as it is at our house as far as seeing each goes and the only change is me and the kiddie have to start whole new lives and I'll be alone with no friends and no family. To the poster who stated, "Start to accept the responsibility of taking care of your own family. It is not your parents or in-laws job to pick up your kids at school and get them to other activities. I take care of my child. I'm a burn center icu nurse the shifts are not 8:15-2:50 to match my son's school schedule.. mines 7-3.. Some kids go to daycare I have the luxury that family can help when needed. When someone doesn't show up for their shift I can't just leave patients.. so to me it's a necessity that there is someone who I can call on short notice.. the last thing anyone who knows me would say is that I pawn my kid off, our anniversary and birthdays are even spent with the little one... if i'm off work he's with me. I wish part-time work was an option for our family.. it's not. Also, living closer would not allow us to see hubby more.. that's my problem.. he'd get home after we go to bed and leave before we wake up.

25. Resolved Question: 10 Things Men Wish Women Knew?
1. Confidence is Sexier Than the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue How a woman sees herself is ultimately how the man will see her. Despite how media and commercialism tries to bend this rule, attraction is only partially about a woman's physical appearance. Studies have shown time and again that men's attraction to women is a combination of personality, confidence and body language. In other words, feeling sexy is being sexy! ---------------------------------------------------------- 2. Leave us Alone in the Bathroom I won't bother you if you don't bother me. This is how most men think about the bathroom. Men generally dislike being disrupted in the bathroom, no matter what they are doing. They do not want to be asked how their day was, or if they are going "number two." In addition, most men prefer their partner to close the door when they are doing their own business. ------------------------------------------------------------ 3. Pornography is not a Replacement for Sex With You Pornography and self-gratification are very common among men. So common, in fact, that the three-fourths of men who admit to it in studies could very well be the only ones telling the truth. As long as the pornography is not a crutch for a troubled relationship, it is a harmless act. If you are concerned about his involvement with porn, the best approach is to talk about it with an open mind, rather than to make accusations. Set boundaries if you must, but a closet porn-watcher is much more unhealthy than one who is open about it with his partner. ---------------------------------------------------------------- 4. The Fastest Way to a Man's Heart Really is Through His Stomach Men love being cooked for, which has absolutely nothing to do with the stereotype of the barefoot and pregnant wife slaving away over a hot stove while he's off doing men's work. It's the 21st century, and studies show men are doing more of the cooking than ever before. Men, however, continue to enjoy the privilege of a home-cooked meal. In fact, Australian research shows men sometimes prefer good food to sex. Good cooking may very well lead to the last headache you'll ever need to fake. ------------------------------------------------------ 5. We Love the Sound of Your Voice in the Bedroom You don't have to go overboard -- just let him know he's on the right track. Unless, of course, he isn't, then that is a whole different discussion. Many men base their success, in the moment, on their partners' verbal and visual cues. Studies have shown that men are much more likely to orgasm during their partners' bouts of verbal ecstasy than while quiet. Your voice may be all the Viagra he will ever need. --------------------------------------------------------------- 6. Men Aren't Sexoholics, We Just Need to Feel Wanted While sex is a biological draw in men, it is also an emotional one. Sex is much more than just biology to a man, it is an outlying force which rates his overall satisfaction with life. Men need to feel wanted, and regular sex offers him a confidence that will carry over into everything he does. When he is rejected from sex, he feels rejected as a partner, husband and provider. --------------------------------------------------------------- 7. We Like the Idea of Romance, We Just Don't Always Know What to do Most men have tried to be a Romeo at some point in their lives. We know we love you, we want to show you, but we are not always sure how to do it. Sometimes these efforts are hidden within such simple gestures as fixing the kitchen sink, or building a new shelf in the bathroom. Compared to long-stem roses, these offerings may not seem romantic to women, but they truly mean so much coming from your man. ---------------------------------------------------------------- 8. Men Enjoy the Challenge of Getting Lost and Finding Our Way Back This is a big one between many men and women, especially if you have been in a relationship for a long time. Men will inevitably get lost, refuse to ask for directions, and by the time they get where they were going, their partner is fuming with irritation. Relax, men have made it this far in life without anyone guiding us, so why start now. Men love the feeling of self-navigating out of a jam. Don't rob us of this proud moment, and we won't rob you of the time it takes to choose a perfect skirt to go with that blouse. ------------------------------------------------------------------ 9. "Ok" is an Acceptable Answer to "How Was Your Day?" Studies show men use the same amount of words per day as women -- we just don't always talk about the same things. At the end of the work day, the woman is anxious to tell him all about her it -- 'this happened, then that, she said this and I did that.' When she asks him about his day, he shrugs and says, "it was ok," and this drives her nuts. Remember, if we really have something to tell you, we will. Most men are reserved talkers. It's not that we don't want 10. What You See Is What You Get Most men have run into a relationship where his partner loved most everything about him, except for those one or two things that really drove her nuts. She may have believed that she could change him, or perhaps he even told her that he could change. Truth is, for most men, what you see is what you get. If you don't like what you see, then you're probably not going to like what you get! Don't think you can change us, because you probably can't.

29. Resolved Question: dream interpretations: Drowning & Car Theft?
hubby had a dream back in december 1st one: was at the swimming with our kids, our youngest went under he managed to pull the older one out no lifeguard in sight, suddenly someone came and pulled her out. 2nd dream: His car was stolen from the driveway he looked and looked and finally he found it in a neighbors yard and got recovered. these happened days apart. we thought it was relating to his "identity" (based on dream interpretation websites) but more relating to faith because he was working on the sabbath. he said after the new year he'd stop. recently hes been acting strange, not himself and out of the blue he's asking for a divorce (origionally wanted to see a marriage councellor but i called his friend a name ... as i found her in my house when i got home from work Right after he said I had 90 days to make a change or he was leaving. of course I wasnt going to be nice to her because this happened out of the blue and they met at the olympics and thats when he started avoiding my calls. he earlier mentioned something was his cry for help. we were gonna work stuff out after he was making arguments over tiny things that didnt make sense - he started getting angry at me so I said i didnt want him bring that ___ around. he flipped out (he's never defended me that way against his family who badmouth me!) so of course what else am i supposed to think?) anyways i realized the dream more relates to what is currently happening. hes moved out. I had a sense this was a spiritual battle as like i said all his priorities and things he valued changed overnight. I was wondering if someone could shed some better light on this? i read elsewhere drowning and dying meant loss of a business or relationship (we have a business together) But I was wondering - if my daughter AND the car in both dreams after searching and searching got recovered ... wat do you think that represents? (havent found anything regarding "recovering" of things like this) I dont know if it means getting rid of me will make him find himself again? or he will find himself AND the relationship will be restored? we've been together for about 6.5 years and married for barely 6 months! I cant afford the house on my own or the kids school so i might have to pull them out. would love it if anyone had any answers so i can plan one way or the other! thanks for reading my super long details! thanks so much for that. that is really heart breaking to hear. when guys have drifted to another girl I've usually had dreams about it. both times they've come clean and didnt actually do anything but it was dangerously close. one was the ex and the other was hubby. (back in the early days) so far no dreams yet. (yay) after realizing our fights was not emotionally/physically and realizing that it may be more spiritual (he stopped coming to church) i realized that may be why hes not himself (everyone's noticed friends family etc.) and if hes lost sight and not there (not his true self) then If the worst did happen I did tell him I'd forgive him. we're been through a lot and I think if we get through this bump it'll make us stronger. as it has in the past. =)

30. Voting Question: What Are My Health Insurance Options When Hiring First Employee(s)?
My 7-year-old small business is about to graduate from being a home-based business to moving into a small commercial office space and hiring its first employee(s). For the past several years, my company has had a small group plan with BCBS of FL (basically one enrollee with family coverage, including maternity.) As the premiums are $1,000+/month, there is NO way that my business can afford to pay for even half of that level of coverage for its first employee(s). That said, I'd very much like to offer some basic level of coverage: perhaps $200/month toward single only high-deductible HMO or PPO level coverage. What should I be thinking about to be able to (a) keep my own family's coverage unchanged and (b) accomplish my goal to offer/subsidize a more modest level of health insurance for full-time employees?

44. Voting Question: I am a US citizen and will be starting a new job soon with a Canadian company..?
I will continue to live in the US and work from home as most of the business happens with clients who are also based here. The company will pay me monthly as an independent contractor so I will have to file my taxes under a 1099 form. The company will pay me my base salary monthly but has agreed to also pay my medical and potential taxes owed on my base (about 30% of my base salary) monthly in a separate check. What I want to know is whether or not the 30% that they will pay me on top of my base salary will be right around the amount that I will owe at the end of the tax year if I file as an independent contractor with a 1099. I've heard from many people that 30% is the standard but loose percentage of what is taxed as an independent contractor.
