    Has anyone here purchased prescription drugs from an online Pharmacy? If so, what was your experience like?
    I'm considering an order, but I'm skeptical and worried about giving my CC info to some sketchy site. Thanks.

    Maybe something with stronger Google-Fu can help me out with this...

    I need to take a map (googlemap would be great) and draw three circles around a center point with increasing radius's. freemaptools.com pops up for me, and does a fine job of drawing a single circle on the map, but I can't seem to get it to let me draw multiple on a single map.

    Anything cheap and easy out there that can help me out?

    If you need them to be in increments of 1 km, you could use this . . .http://www.bromit.com/maps/ConcentricCircles.htm (I don't know how to change the 1 or the km.)

    Edit: Ah, here you go . . . http://maps.forum.nu/gm_sensitive_circle2.html

    Here's a way to do it in PowerPoint. http://www.ehow.com/how_5206573_make-concentric-circles-powerpoint-tutorial.html

    I have used DeLorme's Street Atlas USA for years, for producing maps. You can download a version for about $30. This may be more than you want. (I have not used the current 2011 version.) http://shop.delorme.com/OA_HTML/DELibeCCtdItemDetail.jsp?item=31065&section=10121

    The first link here does exactly what I need to do, except it only allows for one circle to appear at a time. I need to draw three circles around an address, one with a 50 mile radius, one with a 75, and one with 100.

    I definitely appreciate the response and the help. If anyone else has an idea on something, I'd love to hear it. Or if you know the third link there can def do what I need to do easily, I'll download and buy it.

    This can do what you need. Just pop in the different radii[good word, good word] and change the color of each one. Then punch in the next radius and change that color too.

    Anyone have any experience building your own dock? I want to build a 20x8 or so detachable dock so I can mount a small Minkota on it and have a floating platform for the summer.

    I've looked around on the net and found a few ideas, but if anyone has some advice on what to look out for and gotchas you've run into I'd appreciate hearing about them.

    If you're putting a swimming ladder on it make sure the whole thing weighs enough to be stable for people on the ladder. A friend of mine built a floating dock for his cabin and bigger guys like myself and a few of my other friends had a hard time getting up the ladder since it wanted to flip over at times. The size you want to build would probably negate this problem though, his is much smaller. It might get covered in bird shit too so you will probably want to figure that out.

    Basically, it'll be a fishing platform. It might also be pressed into service as a weapons platform (potato and/or paint guns) during the few rowing regattas the lake has every year. The size I've chosen is the same size as the footprint of one of my ez-up shelters, so on hot or rainy days we can afford ourselves a bit of shelter if we want. I'm basically looking to unhook it from my current dock (which doesn't extend out into the water, really), have 2-6 guys in lawn chairs, coolers, maybe a BBQ, generator-powered blender, etc., floating around on the lake, being propelled by a Minkota electric motor.

    I'm planning on building it out of pressure treated wood, and have a pressure washer that I can use to keep it clean.

    Never though of the swimming ladder, but that might be a handy feature.

    I'm more interested in various means of flotation. I'm tempted to make my own out of expanding polystyrene, and coat it with fibreglass and gel-coat.

    I've seen some nice platforms made out of iodine barrels. Used to be fun to fish out of one cut in half lengthwise in shallow farm ponds when I could fit in them. But anyways, the barrels are durable and plentiful.

    Actually, I've just made a deal for a pair of Hobie 20 hulls.

    Basically, a guy at the local sailing club I used to belong to has an old Hobie 20 (pic below, but not his) that got damaged. He's got the hulls left, with a hole in one of them. The trampoline is fucked, and he's parted out the rigging and dagger boards, so it works out perfectly. He is also including the rudders, as they're a bit fucked too, but easily reshaped to work well enough for what I need.

    He's delivering them to me this weekend, and I'll just fix the hole with some fibreglass, and build a wood platform on top of it. $250 delivered, and I consider that a hell of a deal.

    It'll be a bit high in the water, but that shouldn't be too bad. If anything, I can fill the hulls a bit with water to make it sit lower in the water. It'll also be super smooth going through the water as there will be hardly any drag, and a small electric motor should make it haul ass. Rudders to steer the thing, even.

    Sure beats fucking around with barrels and foam construction.

    Survey time! *

    A friend asked me to send this survey out for some research he is doing, so I'd appreciate anyone that takes the time to fill it out. It's really short (10 questions, should only take a couple of minutes).

    Thanks in advance

    I have a question for lawyers about wills

    I have googled variations of "testator not following will" but I figured this would be an easier place to get exact instructions as to what I should do:

    My grandfather passed away in 2008 and it has recently come to our attention that a good chunk of my paternal relatives believe my father took all the money and possessions because no one apparently received any of it. My father insists that his brother, who took care of everything related to my grandparents deaths, most probably just "signed himself" everything. Isn't there an easy way to check out this kind of information (I figured it would be as simple as looking up a single bank transaction). We really just want to clear our names but I don't know where to even start.

    I will be taking a class at Georgetown University this summer, and I am currently looking for places to live in or near D.C. where I will be able to get back and forth to class at least semi-easily. Does anybody in the area know of any good places to look? The absolute priciest I can afford would be about $1000 a month.

    This could be wildly off target, because it relates to the laws here (where I am) and not there (where you are). First you're thinking of executor, not testator. A testator is a male person who makes the will (females is testatrix). An executor (executrix) is the person who administers the estate.

    Executors are taken to have an extremely high duty of care in respect of their administration of an estate. The law frowns on carers for disabled people who take advantage of the situation, right? It's considered worse when the person is deceased.

    The first port of call would be to find the nearest Public Trustee, which is the government representative who looks after estates without executors and the like, alert them to your suspicions and ask them to investigate. Not sure if you have an equivalent. If you don't, you might have to take personal action and you're back to where we started.

    The dead generally lose any right to privacy, but you don't gain the right to look at their affairs. Getting hold of a bank statement or similar is likely to be difficult. Easiest way is if there was something specific, of sentimental value for example, that you would expect to go to someone. If they didn't get it, you ask questions.

    OK, dog people, my wife finally wore me down enough, and we went and picked up a chihuahua puppy today. It's a female dog, and so far she seems scared shitless to be at her new home. We have given her food and water, but she won't eat or drink. She has been silent, and she just sits in her bed. She's not sick, as she was very active at the breeder's house before we brought her home. She's been with us for about 5 hours now. Maybe I'm freaking out because this is my first experience with an inside dog, but is this behavior normal?

    Is there anything we need to know about owning a chihuahua?

    Also, we can't seem to come up with a name. We're considering Lizzy (after the band Thin Lizzy) or Lita (after Lita Ford, the rock star). Are there any resources out there where I can find ideas?

    Thanks in advance.

    Yes, that's normal behavior for a puppy in a new environment, away from her mother and siblings for the first time. She'll acclimate.

    I've never owned a chi-wa-wa, but they're quite popular in Texas, and not just with the Mexicans. What I've seen in those I've encountered is, they're just like any of the other smaller breeds: yappy and annoying (just like my mini schnauzer). I'll never go small breed again.

    I have a friend who has one and recently had to spend over 1k in dental costs. Even though they feed her special food made just for them. Their mouths are too small so no doggie dentu bone will help. Kicker with this one? Her name is Cho cho. Go ahead and google that. Clever bastard!
