The condom broke/ fell off/ wasn’t used right during sex. What are my options?

OBGYN Doctors in Virginia Beach Hampton Roads, VA - Dr. Rich...
There are a couple of emergency contraceptive methods available, but we typically prescribe Plan B® as it is one of the most convenient forms with minimal side effects. We usually advise anybody who regularly uses condoms as “Plan A” birth control to have a prescription for Plan B® contraceptive pills on hand as it is most effective when taken within 72 hours (although more recent studies have shown efficacy up to 120 hours) after unprotected intercourse.

My garbage wasn’t picked up? Why not and what can I do?

Walker Garbage Service -- Frequently Asked Questions
Occasionally we miss a can, but the most common reason for a missed pickup is that you did not get it to the pickup location early enough. It must be curbside (or wherever we usually pick it up) by 6 am on your collection day. In any case, if you call the office right away, we may be able to pick it up that day or the next. A small fee may apply. See below. Usually if you miss a week, you can put out a double load the following week and you will not be charged extra.

Well, I’ve written before, but it wasn’t very good. Should I join?

index
Of course. If we all waited until we felt “good enough” to join a writing group, trust me, no one would EVER sign up. The goal is to enjoy the act of writing, not to churn out a bestselling novel on the first attempt. And, believe me, you’ll find that writing is like anything else—once you make a hobby of it, you can’t help but get better and better.

Is there a story behind Risk 2210 and why wasn’t included in the rules?

It was going to go in the rulebook but it was more important to put the rules to Classic Risk in instead. Don't worry, the story will emerge sometime.

(Rob –AH) Winning the game: the rules say something like "at the end of year 5...each player, in turn order..." Yes, this _usually_ gives the last player an advantage, so keep that in mind when managing your energy turn 4. (Rob –AH)

Why don’t all infants have a diagnostic test for hearing loss?

Screening, FAQs, EHDI, NCBDDD, CDC
A diagnostic test takes a long time, it cannot be done before a baby goes home from the birth hospital, and it is expensive. A hearing screening test is quick, it can be done before a baby leaves the birth hospital, and it is relatively inexpensive. Screening tests are common in medicine. Checking your vision with an eye chart in the doctor’s office is a screening test. Just because you have trouble reading the eye chart does not necessarily mean that you need glasses.

Wasn’t removing Saddam the right thing to do? Isn’t the world better off without him?

Nevada Workers Against the War :: FAQ's & Positions
This is a clever way to spin the war, but a reality check is in order. Bush did not simply “remove” Hussein. He launched an unprovoked invasion of an oil-rich Islamic nation, under false pretenses, and killed 100,000 innocent people. He lost the respect of our allies, gained the hatred of the Muslim world, and created a new breeding ground for terrorists, as Iraq descended into lawlessness and civil war.

Can the retina or the eye be transplanted to improve my vision?

Frequently Asked Questions - Retina Vitreous Center PA - Oph...
No. Transplantation of retinal cells is an active area of research, but it has yet to be successful in improving vision to any significant degree. Another area of research is aimed at developing an electronic "chip" which is implanted in the eye to serve as an artificial retina. Again, it may be years before this technology proves to be successful. Transplantation of the whole eye is a complex idea which is not realistic at this point in time.
