I have AT%26amp;T and I really dislike the way their service is in my home. Service will go Back and forth from two bars to none which is very disturbing because dropped calls happen very often and we can't have a conversation or take care of business without leaving the neighborhood. What can I do about this? Should this be my phone companys problem?Why is the cell phone service in my home very bad?

This is pretty common with phone service providers. The location of a home relative to the nearest cell towers in addition to the walls is simply too much for the signal to get through. Line of sight is key for wireless communication. You MIGHT get better service with a different phone, or a different service provider. But, you might not. If you can afford it, your best option is to get a better phone that will work off of your wifi at home, or use a computer based phone service like skype.

What should my daughter respond when people make fun of her for staying home?
My daughter was out with her boyfriend and his friends were teasing her because she does not go out every single night. She is 17 and likes her boyfriend but does not go out with him and his friends when they go to bars. She does not like the scene. They were asking her why does she stay home all of the time? She said that she felt a little embarrassed and did not know how to respond. What should she respond to put them in their place?What should my daughter respond when people make fun of her for staying home?
I'm 17 too and I often stay at home too :)
Some people are just home bodies, I love to be at home doing anything, but that doesn't mean I don't enjoy going out every now and then. If that's what your daughter is like then it shouldn't be a problem because she does go out every now and then. Tell her to just tell them that she likes being at home, it's not a big deal.
If she doesn't go out because of the drinking scene then it shouldn't be an issue, eventually the kids will get over the intriguing alcohol phase, and will just leave her alone. afterall, they are her boyfriend's friends not bullies or strangers
for now, tell her to just do what she wants, they'll get over it.
I think your daughter should tell them the truth and say she's not so fond of the bar scene. Wouldn't she rather be around people who like her for who she is then what she's not? Maybe she should talk to her boyfriend about it, he might not see that their questions make her feel embarrassed, if he did he could talk to his friends about it or stand up for her when his friends teased her.
If her boyfriend isn't bothered then i suggest that he isn't the right guy for her, however much she likes him.What should my daughter respond when people make fun of her for staying home?
I would encourage your daughter to find someone who feels the same way about these things. This could be a recipe for disaster if their relationship became more serious in the future. I can just see it her home with the baby while daddy is clubbing all the time. Also, if he really cares for her she shouldn't have to defend herself.
She might ask them why they would feel it necessary for her to go out every night. Maybe it's necessary for them, escaping a dysfunctional family perhaps? But it's just not her thing. Or maybe that's just the right answer right there. "just not my thing"
Of course updated into whatever the modern slang terms are *grin*
Hang in there :)
BillWhat should my daughter respond when people make fun of her for staying home?
well my boyfriend is the same thing as ur daughter ..he hardly go out with me and my friends to bars and clubs at all..where im from 21 is the legal age to go to bars.when ur daughter goes with her boyfriend is it mix crowd or just mostly guys?single or with boyfriend and girlfriend? sometimes that can b a reason too..she can prolly suggest that we dont have to go to the bar every single night maybe instead of going to bars every nite.she can offer or ask what else we can do other than bar?
whoever said she is a crappy mom is a retarded piece of crap themselves...
no, that's an insult to the disabled and to crap...
you're something beyond words
anywho, she should say "at least i have less of a chance of dying in a car crash." the fear of death usually shuts people up, and it's too awkward of a comeback for someone to respond to
They don't need to be "put in their place." If her boyfriend's friends are being that rude and mean to her, I would consider that grounds for a break up. He needs to stand up for her OR get them to stop saying those things. If he just sits back and let them talk to her like that, he's not worth it.
in my opinion she has more class than her friends or rather his friends, i would never hang out in a bar, im not a bar fly.
she could be into sports, take a night class, or she just enjoys her home life.
she could tell them she has nothing to run away from.
what i told my boyfriends friends when they asked me that was this "Maybe because i want to" or this "That's not your Business" or"Am just not kind of girl that likes to go out every single night" or just no-re them.
She can tell them not to bother her when they are alcoholics, druggies or parents before their time becuase she is a good girl who actually has goals and plans.
She should tell them it isn't their business or that she doesn't want the drama that comes along with the bar scene.
She should chastise their hell-bent anti-christian adttitutdes towards alcohol and partying.
What the ****? You're a crappy mom. You should know what to tell her. Stop pretending you are your mom, okay?

How do I make special shaped chocolates at home?
Im thinking and planning to make some chocolates at home with some special molds I have for a party. I want to know what is the best chocolate to use or a brand you would suggest. I know there are chocolate bars you just melt then pour on the mold but I want to get some advice froms someone who has been successful in a similar project. Thanks!How do I make special shaped chocolates at home?
You temper your chocolate or melt your chocolate and put it in a mould that you can find at craft stores. You could also use soap moulds as well. Good Luck.
Well I usually buy the chocolate mets (they come in several different colors) at Walmart or Micheals. I spray the flour added spray into the molds melt the chocolate pieces in a glass measuring cup in the micro pour it into a decorating bag and cut just the tip off (I do it this way so that I can put the color right where I want it) It makes for better looking pieces and also gives them that professional look as well.
Good luck and have fun.How do I make special shaped chocolates at home?
Try using a double boiler to melt the chocolate and use a plastic mold to make the shapes. Dont forget to spray the mold with non stick spray.
I just took a class on this last weekend. For real chocolate you will need to temper the chocolate after it is melted so that it will harden correctly and not be cloudy. Tempering chocolate differs based on if it is white, dark or milk chocolate you are working with. You can buy candy coating if you do not want to mess with tempering, but it does not taste as good.
I would get a good book on chocolate making that can walk you through the steps with photos for tempering.
Don't use non-stick spray. If the chocolate is properly tempered it will contract from the edges of the mold on its own. You will want to tap the filled mold on the counter to get any air bubbles out, then place the filled molds in the refridgerator until hardened. If the chocolate won't release from the mold, put it back in the fridge longer and try again.
You can buy chocolate and/or candy coating, and the molds at a baking/sweet store. Try your local yellow pages.How do I make special shaped chocolates at home?
oh goodness gurl ur lucky i gave u advive!! lol j/k well all u got to do is melt it then put it in a mold

How do you build a bar for your home?
I built my own using 18 gauge steel studs as the frame. The top was built out of 2 sheets of 3/4 exterior ply and tile and I used wood and composites on the rest. I also built a bar/outdoor kitchen for a friend and we used concrete backer board and tile instead of a wood covering. If you want, email me and I will send you pics and more info on my bar.
Follow up: If the bar is going to be indoors you can use wood studs instead of steel.How do you build a bar for your home?
Send a suggestion to build a bar to Norm Abrams at the New Yankee Workshop and copy what he does. Closest he's come so far is a kitchen island http://www.newyankee.com/getcategory3.cg鈥?/a>

What do I do when my unlock iPhone 2G only does incoming calls and asks me to connect to iTunes. No home page?
When I put my T-mobile sim card in it gives me the image to connect to iTunes. I can only accept calls and I cant make calls. It's almost like it is impossible to get to the home screen but it shows the the T-moble signal bars. What do I do to fix the problem.What do I do when my unlock iPhone 2G only does incoming calls and asks me to connect to iTunes. No home page?
If you do not have the ability to restore the phone via iTunes, you will have to take it to an Apple store or AT%26amp;T and lie to them about how it stopped working. Do NOT say you unlocked it or they will charge you.

How do I get plastic off the glass and the metal bars of the fireplace?
My brothers friends left my guitar hero guitar leaning against our gas fireplace and luckily I caught it before it got really bad, but it melted enough that its becoming troublesome. Before the glass is small metal bars that are maybe a cenimeter thick. I got some of the plastic off. But there is still some on the glass but its hard to reach. I would really like to be able to fix this before my father gets home on Christmas day from work.How do I get plastic off the glass and the metal bars of the fireplace?
TRY BRAKE PARTS CLEANER. JUST USE A TOOTH BRUSH AFTER YOU SPRAY IT ON. BE QUICK BECAUSE ITS GOING TO START EATING THE TOOTHBRUSH BRISTLES. MAKE SURE THAT ITS BEEN A FEW HOURS BEFORE YOU LIGHT A FIRE AGAIN. YOU GOT THE CLEANER AT THE AUTO PARTS STORE FOR ABOUT 3-4 BUCKS.How do I get plastic off the glass and the metal bars of the fireplace?
as far as getting the plastic off, you're gonna have to get a lighter or something and heat it back up the wipe it off or scrape it off. the lighter will leave little charmarks on the glass but use toothpaste to get that off. don't try to turn the fireplace back on to get the plastic hot. them the matal and glass will get hot too. you want to centralive where the heat goes so use a lighter. a fireplace lighter would be good.
