Which birth control method do you like best? Which do you dislike the most?

I'm thinking of switching methods but not too sure which I'd like. I've done research and would now like some opinions!





Thank You.

Which birth control method do you like best? Which do you dislike the most?
I like the ring the best because you put it in for a month and then forget it, and i dislike the pill the most because i can't ever remember to take it.
Reply:I'm not on any birth control. I monitor my cycles and my husband does the "pull out" method most of the time. We have fun with it, so he doesn't mind, and I like the freedom of not taking anything.


I dont' have to worry about "correcting my cycle" before getting pregnant, I don't have to worry about side effects, or struggling to get pregnant because my body isn't used to the lack of birth control, and its really easy to learn.





Once you're off birth control for awhile, you learn your cycle really well and its very easy to tell the safe zone, from the danger zone. :)
Reply:I am on the pill, and I prefer it to others because I think it's the easiest and because I feel more comfortable with something that I control, as opposed to other methods such as the shot or ring that you have to rely on your doctor for.





I've never been on the shot, but I know 4 people who switched to the shot and became pregnant unexpectedly after 6-8 months. I know the shot is supposed to be just as effective as other methods, but I would be hesitant to use it.
Reply:It really just depends on you--what works best with your body, your schedule, how soon you want to have children (if at all); basically your lifestyle in general.





I've used the ring and the pill. Both are perfectly fine for me. To be honest I preferred the ring because I didn't have to remember to take a pill everyday but it got really expensive and the pill is very cheap.
Reply:I like the shot because I don't have to remember to take the pill everyday but I don't like the pill because it made me gain weight and I couldn't remember to take it everyday.
Reply:birth control pills made me very sick to my stomach to the point I couldnt sleep at night,very very emotional and very very very depressed


so stopped taking them after 2 weeks of trying to deal with it all





the shots u can get...heard too many girls gained over 20lbs so no thanks....





the seasonale u can take for only having 4 periods a yr doctors found out its a HORRIBLE idea for ur body...do ur reseach...anyhow





SO....................





so my huney and I ALWAYS use condom...both of us discussed not ready to have kids and if either of want some must wear one...if dont have any then hes going to the shower....


What do you need to know to tell me the best savings method?

Hi, I'm trying to work out what's the best savings method - mini ISA, types of shares etc. I know that this depends a lot on the individual's situation.


For those who are perhaps a bit more finance savvy than the rest of us - can you give me a list of things it depends ON, e.g. tax rate, my age, how quick I need to be able to take money out etc. This way I can do the research that will give me a more pertinent answer. I'm saving for a house deposit.


Thank you in advance.

What do you need to know to tell me the best savings method?
There are steps to investing.


The first stair is to remove debt (target 30% of your income to reduce your debt)


The next stair is saving (target 10% of your income to go toward savings)


Once you have 3 to 6 months in savings... you can move to investing.





Note: Once your debt is paid off, start savin gor investing the 30%.





Other notes... All raises should have % going to savings or debt (bonuses too - I you are so lucky :))
Reply:How much can you save per paycheck? How often are you paid?





What is the current cost of a starter home in your area?





What other savings/investments do you already have?





Your job and current salary and expected (likely) salary increase year on year for the next 10 years.





Age - nearly irrelvant at this stage


Tax rate - ditto





Really you need to sit down with a financial advisor and work out if saving for a house deposit is actually priority No1 right now. Houses cost way more than you might think to maintain and there is a protracted slump coming (US %26amp; UK) so the rush is probably off for now.


What does "are there any limitations in the conceptualization of key concepts" mean??

this is for a introductory research methods course and i dont understand the question. the first part of the question asked for the major concepts in the article.

What does "are there any limitations in the conceptualization of key concepts" mean??
Lol... whoever wrote that sentence ought to be shot .... Conceptualizing concepts... rofl





Anyway.. What he/she wants to know is basically what's called the "next question". The first question asked what the major concepts of the article were. Now, he/she wants to know whether those concepts make sense. If they don't, why not. That's what is meant by limitations in the conceptualisation.





To rephrase it, one could say: Are there limits or barriers to implementing those key ideas.
Reply:Limitation meaning what is like wrong or limited in the article. For example, if the major concepts of the article was about the, let's say, a speech a colonist was making about the boston tea party during the 1770's, and how it was so tragic for the colonists- then the limitations would be that the point of view of the british is not present in the article (it is only limited to the viewpoint of the colonists). Basically, what is the article lacking?

If we were to use a fairly strict alpha, what happens to beta and why? (statistical analysis question)?

This is an inferential Data analysis question for my Research methods class in Exercise Sport Science.

If we were to use a fairly strict alpha, what happens to beta and why? (statistical analysis question)?
By a "strict" alpha, I assume that you mean that alpha is small. This will then make beta bigger. alpha and beta have an inverse relationship; if you lower alpha you raise beta, and if you raise alpha you lower beta.





alpha is a number that you can set; beta is not. If a type I error is worse than a type II error, then you should make alpha smaller. But if a type II error is worse, then you should make alpha larger.
Reply:I started to write explanations to you but i found a web site that will help you much better. The errors are explained here in detail and the applet shows them graphically.

What are new technologies of measuring time?

for a physics assignmnet we were asked to research new ways of telling/measuring time. it can be any methods that are brand new, or currently being developed. (like how scientists are developing ways to measure the half lives of isotopes, etc)





i have no idea where to find information on this, so any help/input would be great.

What are new technologies of measuring time?
atomic clocks are a relatively new technology in comparison with others.





An atomic clock is a type of clock that uses an atomic resonance frequency standard to feed its counter. Early atomic clocks were masers with attached equipment. Today's best atomic frequency standards are based on absorption spectroscopy of cold atoms in atomic fountains. National standards agencies maintain an accuracy of nanoseconds


(10^-9) seconds





I found an article on a more modern clock that is accurate to below the degree of the picosecond:





Clock Technology enables sub-picosecond accurate signals.





June 9, 2006 - RotaryWave(TM) on-chip clock technology enables semiconductors to achieve optimal performance by delivering high-resolution, low-noise timing signals with minimal power. Without requiring any manufacturing changes for implementation, it works on all existing manufacturing processes and technologies. Clock scales with advanced processes, utilizes Mobius timing generator, and exhibits tolerance to substrate, power supply, and radiated noise.





However, this is to do with clocks that control timing of complicated circuits like the CPU of a computer system, etc, so they do not tell time as a clock on the wall does, but they do break time down into much smaller pieces so that electronic technology can run to a high degree of precision.


Is parakeet training related to Life Science?

O.k. so I'm doing a Science fair project and I'm wondering Is my research question in any way related to science this is my Research question:


Can a parakeet be trained to preform dog commands using bird training methods?


I know it's a stupid question but my science teacher says its ok


And could i get some tips on presenting my project.


Here is my Final Draft:

Is parakeet training related to Life Science?
That sounds like an interesting and fun experiment! Just remember that training any type of pet/animal takes lots of time, patience and energy and you likely won't see immediate results. Just stick with it and good luck with your project!
Reply:Do you have a dog?


Do you, or can you get a parakeet?


Parakeet training takes a long time.


If you have a dog and parakeet then bring the dog and parakeet to school. Bring the keet in his cage and the dog in his kennel. Have the dog preform 3 tricks a parakeet is also physically able to do. Then bring the keet out and put the dog back in his kennel. Do the same with the keet.


How I can protect my new business model and concept?

Business methods are patentable and searchable on the USPTO's website. But there are several problems with it:





1) If a new business method is patented, how can one enforce it if the patent holder has limited financial resources.





2) It appears to be difficult to research if a new business idea is infriniging on an existing patent.





The bottom line is: how can one protect a new business idea?

How I can protect my new business model and concept?
registrate it legally
Reply:It is not possible to protect ideas but rather the representation of that idea. Without knowing further, it's hard to say what would be your best route. Here's some information on the different branches of intellectual property -- after reading, you'll probably be able to decide what the best route is...





PATENTS:


To protect an original invention OR a significant improvement to an existing product, a patent would be filed. Here's the USPTO's definition: http://www.uspto.gov/web/offices/pac/doc...





TRADEMARKS:


Trademarks can be names of products or services, logos, slogans, packaging and even sounds and smells. In essence, a trademark can be almost anything that is used to identify a particular product or service. Registering a trademark grants the owner exclusive rights to the mark within the specified industry.





COPYRIGHTS:


Copyrights can be obtained for things of an artistic nature. This includes, of course, poetry, films, sculptures, music, fiction, etc. But can also include things that may not necessarily seem "artistic" in the general sense of the word. Copyrights can also be obtained for advertising copy, games, software programs and blueprints, to name just a few.





I posted some handy links that should assist you further. Hope that helps! I wish you much success %26amp; happiness in all your ventures!
Reply:don't tell anyone!
Reply:Hi


well you need to go to the website of copywrites.com get the applications you need so that your trade mark, company ideas etc are protected.
