On my iPhone 4S the volume for my ringer/keyboard randomly goes SUPER loud... Like it's on speakerphone. And the stupid thing is when i try and turn the volume all the way down the sound for the keyboard goes even LOUDER. when I have the volume on highest, the keyboard goes quiter... WTF is wrong?

It's not so much a fear as it is a "phobia". I am afraid of nothing else (that I can think of)... except I cannot stand spiders...

Absolutely hate them. Almost every time I see a spider or a picture of a spider during the day, I'll have nightmares about them that night. I'll go and kill one if I see it but it's not that easy for me :S

Is there anything I can do to reduce the "fear" (I don't even know if it IS a fear..) of spiders? Anyone relate?

Right now I'm in college, 3rd year electrical training. It's a 10 week course, its pretty intense, but so far I'm doing well, sitting at about 92%.

In class when the teacher is teaching us I can concentrate and I usually understand everything better than the other classmates. But when I have to study at home... I just can't do it.

When it's the weekend and I have some studying to get done, I'll tell myself I'm going to just open my book and study. Usually I can't do it. When I actually get enough will power to open my binder and start reading, I simply cannot concentrate. My mind will wonder off onto something completely different, I'll re-read the same sentence over and over again for 5 mins straight. Eventually I'll just end up doing something else.

Even when I take away all distraction, I'll just sit there, dazing off, thinking about anything else. I can't keep my mind on it. Or like I said, I'll read the same sentence over and over. I just get annoyed. I dunno what to do really.

I've been told my eyes are brown. I looked at them in the mirror recently and they look kinda brown/green... I'm not sure what the actual colour is. Can someone tell me?

In any Minecraft multiplayer server i join, I get disconnected whenever I jump. It says End of Stream. Nothing I've tried works. turning off firewall doesn't work.

At first it happened when I was playing games and sometimes movies. The CPU would spike up to ~100% randomly and the FPS in-game would be horrendous.

Now I've noticed it happens randomly, when I'm on the internet or even staring at pixels on my screen.

I've checked all processes when it happens and sometimes it seems to be the game/video I'm playing. But when I close it the CPU still lags for 2 or 3 minutes thereafter. And when it spikes for no reason, all my processes are using 0%, but the CPU is still 100%.

I thought it could be overheating so I got a fan for my laptop, I even cooled it with ICE PACKS. It seemed to help a bit but still have the problem.

Any suggestion?

How would a police officer's job break down percentage wise in what they do in a day? Like what percent is shootings and action, what percentage is high incidents like fights, etc. and whatever else they do.

I know it's different for every police officer but say for a patrol officer.

I used to be able to play it non stop without any crashes whatsoever, but just recently it has been crashing every 5 minutes. It just shuts down with no error report at all. Pissing me off.

Like i said just yesterday it was fine. Nothing to do with drivers, mods or hardware changes. Maybe the update they did?

Well a few nights ago I awoke in the middle of the night, or early morning, and for some reason could barely move my arms. I tried rolling over and it took an immense amount of work. It felt like my arms and body were completely asleep.

I think it is sleep paralysis, but I have never experienced it before and never heard or saw anything weird, or had any kind of hallucination.

Sleep paralysis or something else?

My right ear has been plugged for a few weeks now... I have tried using ear drops and flushing the ear out, but that made it a lot worse. Now its completely plugged and I can barely hear out of it.

How can i unplug it?

Please don't suggest Hydrogen Peroxide or oil as I have already tired that.

So I enjoy gaming (like COD) and so does one of my buddies. We both have PCs so we like to skype each other so we can chat while gaming (especially online).

It's fun to have someone to talk to, but he recently started playing WoW again (we used to but boh quit a while ago). Recently when I call him and try to talk to him he seems to just ignore me... I'll be suggesting a game to him or telling him something that happened to me, and he'll say, "yea I didn't hear a word you said."

Which I know is bullcrap, because we on skype...

So it's gotten to the point where I just won't call him or even say anything because I know he'll just ignore me. I have to YELL at him a few times before he realises im talking to him. Does he have ADD or is he really that distracted by his game???

I just reinstalled Win7 and I am now downloading/installing programs/games. I have been able to pin everything to the taskbar so far except for Call of Duty. Why is this?

No I have not removed shortcut arrows... so this isn't the problem.

Thanks

I need a picture of a mini cat, like 1 inch, standing on the palm of someones hand. Or as close as you can get to that. Obviously there aren't cats that small (Or maybe there are!), so it can be photo-shopped.

If you happen to actually find a cat that small, I will buy it. You can just mail it to me.

I've been playing MW2 Multiplayer since it came out, but just recently has this been happening. When me or anyone else breaks glass, it floats up into the air. I don't think anyone else can see it, just me. I recently reinstalled the game but I dont know how that has anything to so with it.

Any ideas? It was cool at first but now it's getting annoying, lol

I saw a gold chain on eBay that says:

"This full size Gold plated heavy Figaro Chain is laser coated, with 50 mills of high polished Gold for lasting brilliance."

What do they mean by that? What is 50 mills?

So yea I don't remember the last time i had a bruise of any kind. It it just that some people don't really bruise? Because my sister and brother have bruises all the time lol.

A few months ago when i woke up, i had this bite on my neck that looked like a mosquito bite, but it wasn't itchy, it was sore. A few days ago i woke up and there's a bite on my neck again, in almost the same place! Then my neck is kinda sore for the day. What is it? A spider maybe? (eew)

When I post an item under eBay.com the fee is less than a dollar. However when I use eBay.ca the fee is about $6!! Why? What's the point of using eBay Canada?

I would just post in eBay.com but the shipping is all in US, not Canada, which makes it confusing.

Any eBay users out there that can help me?
