Re: Shockwave Flash?

In Electronics Talk 1368767634.41

My flash player crashed after posting. I took out adobe flash player and then reinstalled it. Seems to be working again. Didn't know about a reset button on firefox. Glad to find out about that. After searching firefox I noticed that others had the same problem about the same time. Glad to know that it wasn't just my computer. I went into the plugins before I posted and didn't see any problem there. Just hope this doesn't come back. Continue Reading

 

Re: Angelina Jolie

I am on medicare and a breast cancer survivor. I checked a few months ago on Medicare and from what I read there are some reasons genetic testing would be covered under medicare. I found out that I do have a german jewish background which I was not aware of. I thought my grandmother was just German and didn't know this when I was diagnosed. The past 3 years I was asked a question about a jewish heritage when I got my annual mammogram. Asked an older sibling and they told me about my heritage. He said he thought I knew. Grandmother died when I was 4 so no one ever said a word about it. ... Continue Reading

 

Re: Overactive bladder medications - your frank replies appreciated

I use to take Detrol but after reading what it does to the brain I decided to stop it. I felt sometimes it didn't work as well anyway. I found a site that explained how to do the Kegels and I started doing a few a day and now I do 250 a day. It has helped a lot and I rarely have to use the restroom when out and I can sleep up to 8 hours without getting up. I don't drink caffeine or pop. I do have to drink a little water before bed to take medication. I feel, for me, these exercises have helped. Continue Reading

 

Shockwave Flash?

Last Reply by kismet 1368767634.41 | Started by kismet in Electronics Talk

Just tried to sign on to a site and keep getting a message that Shockwave Flash is not working or is busy. I had this message a few weeks ago and it's back. Using Firefox. I usually have to Ctrl ALT, Delte and stop task. Even after doing this I still couldn't sign in. It's happened on webpages but never on a sign in page. It says it's a plugin. Is there anything I can do to fix this? Continue Reading

I used the birkenstock cork renew on my sandals and it seems to hold. Don't know if it will last. Continue Reading

I put some of the birkenstock cork renew between the cork and leather and hope it holds. Will wait until tomorrow to see if it dries and holds. I thought maybe I would need a really strong glue to hold it. My grandfather use to make shoes and repaired shoes and I remember seeing him use glue and it had a really bad smell. I imagine something like that would work. Just don't know what it was. Hopefully what I have will work. Continue Reading

I do have the cork renew from birkenstock but didn't think that is what holds the leather to the cork. I never used it and still have it. Do you think the birkenstock cork renew is the same as what your husband got? Continue Reading

 

Birkenstock Repair?

Last Reply by kismet 1367897814.827 | Started by kismet in All About Shoes

I have a pair of Birkenstock Milano that I purchased several years ago. The leather is separating on the side from the cork. They are not worn out at all. Is there any glue I can get to repair this area. Has anyone used any glue on the cork and leather area? I feel this may be a one time glue opportunity and want something that I know will work. Any suggestions? Continue Reading

Has anyone had trouble contacting Wolfgang Puck for replacement of a product. I find that it is impossible to speak to someone. Wasted a half hour today just trying to speak to someone. So glad I didn't buy more of his products. Has anyone had the same problem? Continue Reading

 

Re: ER visit

In Among Friends 1365731699.927

I went on this board to tell people that they may not get the help they want at the ER and asked if this was the norm. I didn't go on this board to be questioned as to whether it was an emergency or not. I did what I thought was right for me. I don't judge what other people do. They do what they think is best for them. I don't believe in saying anything negative about what a person does. We all have our own ideas. Now I know why some people won't post anymore. Thanks to those who were helpful and not judgemental. Last edited on 4/12/2013 Continue Reading
