I can never fold fitted sheets flat like the laundry does
I ball them up and shove them in the closet…sorry. i have never known the answer to this
Sheets Fitted
Why do people use fitted sheets in the US?
Almost everyone in the US uses fitted sheets on their beds but in Europe it’s all flat sheets? Why is that? What’s the difference? It’s hard to even find fitted sheets in the stores in some countries. Isn’t that a weird difference?
In England you buy two flat sheets. They are longer and you tuck them under like in a hospital or a hotel in the states. I know the difference between the two kinds of sheets I just wonder why the fitted sheets aren’t more popular in other places.
I live in the USA and am 60 years old. When I was young we only had flat sheets as well. The fitted sheets stay firmly in place on the mattress while the flat sheet tends to pull out and makes the bed look sloppy. The only issue with fitted sheets is that it takes a little patience to get the hang of folding them. In the US the flat sheets are made smaller than they were in the past and are now loo small to be able to be tucked in all around the mattress.
Personal Massage What is your personal philosophy of massage therapy?
When I was young I thought that way, massage therapy is a turn on to the next step, sex, but being older I realize that massage therapy is a huge step to detoxification of the body. I am so happy that there are such things as a Deep Tissue massage. I ask for one every birthday and christmas and during spring break. That’s when I need it the most.

What is a job related to personal trainer or massage therapist, that requires college/uni education?
I want to be a personal trainer or a massage therapist, but my parents want me to go to college. What could I do, which would not require me to work in a hospital?
Here is something to consider. Both a personal trainer certification and a massage therapy certification/license (depending on your state) can be accomplished within a year. Some schools that teach massage also have a personal training certification program. So, the first year into post-secondary education, you can train and explore the idea of being a personal trainer and a massage therapist. After that first year, you will have available to you very flexible and very profitable part-time opportunities with personal training and massage. [Compare this to a $6-$9 per hour job in food service, etc. You could be spending less time working, earning $15-$30 per hour depending on the situation.] Then, the second year of schooling can be dedicated to a degree track (i.e. pre-physical therapy, pre-med, etc.) which will further strengthen your knowledge in the sciences behind the personal training and massage work you are already putting into practice. A business degree can even complement what you are doing if you want to manage or own a business. Look at the trade schools as a beginning rather than an ultimate career. I agree with your parents that you should complete college since those years you are in college teach you much more about life beyond the academics. Many students take 5-6 years to finish a bachelor’s degree anyway. However, at the end of your 5-6 six years you would have a personal training certification, a massage license, a bachelor’s degree and roughly 4-5 years of practical experience, if you followed this plan. For a new college grad, this would be very, very marketable for either a career decision or even additional schooling (PT school, MED school, Chiropractic College, etc.). There are many healthcare opportunities available without needing to work in a hospital. Best wishes…

Sports Wrap Which knee brace gives more stability during sports, a slip-on or wrap-around?
they are both good but a wrap around is better for B-ball and a slip on is better for football
Sports Wrap
What are good sports sunglasses(Brand) other than oakley?
I need them to wrap around my face. Not like goggles but like
http://oakley.com/mframe
or
http://oakley.com/halfjacket
I like both of those i am just wondering if any other brands other than really cheap ones have tried to copy the style and maybe something a little cheaper.
For that kind of look, you need a sports pair, not a designer pair. For that, I’d say check Dick’s Sporting Goods or Sports Authority. They have simmilar pairs for far less.

Health Massage Hi guys Is Massage Therapy a bad career choice health wise?
Hi guys is a career in Massage Therapy a bad career choice health wise because your going to wear out your hand at a young age and possibly get arthritis? Serious answers
It is very taxing physically, but as long as you take care of your body, you’ll be able to do it for a long time. Use good posture, don’t hyperextend your wrists or fingers, stay in good physical shape, strengthen the muscle groups you use most often and their antagonists, set a good daily limit for giving treatments and don’t compromise it, and get regular massages yourself.

Should you tip when you get massage using health insurance at the Dr. office?
Do you tip when you get massage with health insurance at the Dr. office? I mean I know you do at the spa, but what about at the Dr? The insurance company is getting soaked for most of the bill…so do you tip or not? I am getting a hour massage tomorrow, medically written for for by my DC, and I am not sure what to do at the end.
no tip;; it’s a medical treatment…& only one tool to resolve your symptoms;; you wouldn’t tip for a cold pack
Portable Finger What to look for in a Keyboard for a beginner?
Okay, I have no Keyboard/Piano experience and I am now serious about learning how to play.. So I’m interesting in buying a “Beginner” keyboard to start learning. I’m not looking for anything fancy, just something so I can begin to learn the keys and finger work down. But I want something that will allow me to upgrade into the advanced or “real” Keyboard pianos without having to relearn everything.
So, here’s my limits:
Size ~ I have to have something “Portable”. Anything too big I just can’t have because of my living arrangement..
Price ~ I’m looking for something under $100, but I want something that’s decent that will last, but not expensive because I want to upgrade later.
Other Stuff ~ I don’t care about anything extra other than just learning the keys and finger work, so extra stuff beyond that is irrelevant to me.
Another Question: How many keys do you suggest?
I’ve looked at a few beginner keyboards and they all have different numbers of keys.
Look in www.music123.com they have any number of decent, cheap keyboards in the $100 range from Yamaha, Casio and other builders.
Portable Finger
Source of portable non-invasive electronic haemoglobin test. Fits on finger?
I know of some pulse oxygen machines that are portable and kind of ‘clip’ onto the finger and use light and other things to measure the amount of oxygen saturation in the blood. It doesn’t prick the finger at all. Is this what you’re talking about?
Video Dvd how to improve the video quality after editing and burning it as a video dvd by using nero vision?
After editing photos and videos,it is much clear to view in the PC.But after burning it as a dvd and is viewed in a DVD player,it becomes blurred.
Get another dvd burner to try again, sometimes dvd burning software will decrease dvd quality

What is the best DVD video camera?
My wife and I are looking to buy a new video DVD camera. I heard they are limited to only an hour of recording before you have to switch DVD, is this true? Is a DVD video camera a good camera?
If you record at the best quality it’s only about 20 minutes per disk and no, they’re not good! The idea’s good but the camcorder’s aren’t. If you want the best video quality look at MiniDV camcorders, if you want to record without changing anything (apart from batteries) look at hard drive camcorders. Personally, I think the idea of being able to record for hours without changing tapes is hugely overrated – it’s not difficult to change tapes and isn’t there something about putting all your eggs in one basket?

I have been to a few nail shops in the Henderson/ Vegas area for a pedicure and no one really does a good job. I am looking for either a place that does a good pedi AND massage or just a good foot massage place. I am looking for a non-strip establishment preferably.
