Best contact solution and eye drops to use with Biofinity contacts?
If you use Biofinity contacts, what's the best contact solution and eye drops to use?|||The Doctor I work for recommends that his patients who wear Biofinity contacts use the OptiFree Replenish brand. It does a very good job at cleaning the lenses and makes the contacts provide more moisture for your eyes. I personally use that solution and love it. That company also has a reweting drop for your contacts.|||ReNu multi-purpose and refresh plus eye drop. It is the best ones around
How can I contact a psychiatrist or someone in a similar medical profession to help with obsessive thoughts?
I am having many obsessive thoughts. Or rather a single obsessive thought. I have no idea how to overcome my problems and the medical help I have received has been less than helpful. Does anyone know how I can contact a psychiatrist through E mail or any other means to help with my struggle?|||There are many websites you can visit. Just google it and you will find phone numbers and other resources that can help you with that.
If you are thinking about harming yourself or others, you need serious help within the next 24 hours, whether it be talking it out or calling a suicide hotline.|||You can call 211 this is a help referral line that anyone can use.
You can also call the Mental Health Association the number is in the phone book or online.

How do I contact someone about an erroneous charge on my acct?
I have a fraudulent charge on my account from TM Netgames. I need to know who I can contact to have this removed.|||Flip your card over and dial the customer service department on the back of your card.
Ask them the procedures to formally disupute a charge.
BEFORE YOU DO, do you live with teenagers?
If so, tell them about this mystery charge and give them a chance to confess and work off the debt if it is infact theres. I would hate for you to file only to have your child prosecuted (since you might end up having to pay for all those associated expenses)|||You contact your bank.|||The first step is to contact TM Netgames. Ask to speak to the billing department. Explain that you have a charge showing up on your statement that you did not make and ask to have them remove this charge. Be sure to note when you called, who you spoke with, and any extension number. If they refuse to cooperate, contact your credit card issurer or bank and file a fraud report. This will help limit your liability. Also note that there are time frames for doing this.

Who do i contact to report my employer because he is forcing me to work overtime?
My boss just doesnt ask he tells us. I dont mind the OT is he just ask but forcing us to work OT is downright rude. Is this against the law? Who can I contact to report him if it is?|||Unless you work for Union shop and have a contract, in nearly all case, you are out of luck.
Nearly all states in the U.S are "right to work" states and the employer is not violating any labor statutes by telling you that you have to work manditory overtime. In those states, the labor board will back your employer every time.
If you work in a factory/production environment, you may have a case if the manditory overtime is unreasonable and could cause saftey issues...best way to find out would be to look up OSHA standards for your state.
If you have childcare or school obligations and cannot work overtime, you can still be fired but you might be able to still collect unemployment while you are looking for a new job.
In my state recently there was a case where production workers were required to work on a production line for 12 hour shift and no scheduled breaks or lunchs and it was totally legal and all the employer had to do was advise the employee that needed a restroom break that another employee had to cover the few minutes while they were gone or both they and the person they asked to cover them would be reprimanded.
Another was able to fight and get unemployment after 2 mos. after they proved they had a Dr.'s slip that they were only allowed to work under restriction and it was ignored and they finally did get unemployment.
A better solution would be to find another place to work while you are still employed and market how valuable you are to your present employer by consistently being sought out for over time, but that you need or would like a more regular schedule, but would be more than willing to work overtime if given proper (a certain period of time) notice.|||I'm not sure if it is against the law, but you could find out through your states labor board. You have to be careful, some bosses keep track of your willingness to do OT and if you refuse too many times they find excuses to get rid of you. It could be for a number of reasons other than OT.|||FYI, if you live in a state that respects workers' rights, look on your state website, but if you live in a "right to work" or "at will" state, you're fired if you don't like it.|||check with your states dept. of labor...|||check with the labor board. If you don't mind it's ok. But, if you don't want to work the one day of overtime that is your right.|||In most states he has every right to require you to work over time or whatever time he wants,so long as your paid 1 1/2 for all hours over 40 in your regulars work week. up to 12hrs a day standard and 16 in emergencies most places. a 40hr work week isnt law,just that you get overtime for going past it. not working scheduled/required OT is legal grounds for termination. Hes the BOSS teling you what he wants is how its supposed to work,not asking if you want to or not. for what its worth, breaks arent a legal mandate either contrary to popular belief. The labour bureau nor OSHA actually has a requirement for minimum breaks just rules regarding what breaks (if given) your employer must pay you for) and a suggested (not mandated) minimum...If you dont like working the way he wants, feel free to quit or be fired,but dont expect unemployment for leaving either.

Who do i contact to get overflight permission for Germany and Switzerland?
I am having trouble at work. My managing director has a Military Gazelle HT MK2 helicopter but only has a permit to fly in the uk. I need overflight permission for Germany and Switzerland and the CAA told me to contact the authories for both countries. I have scoured the internet to no avail as to go about doing this and all the numbers I rung keep passing me from pillar to post. Any help would be appreciated as this is getting desperate now and i really need to get this done!|||when you file your flight plan the permissions are arranged automatically|||Call the airport - the landing tower has to give permission to fly in the area so they should be able to tell you.|||Sounds like you have no idea what you are talking about!
You state you need to find out permission to fly over Germany and Switzerland!! well to get that far you will also need to file for permission to fly over the following:
Holland, Belgium, and France depending upon your destination
The British Civil Aviation Authority would supply relevant contact details of their counterparts on the continent ( all of which the pilot of the helicopter should know, he will also have to be able to file the relevant proposed flight plans and schedule for refuelling,)
You will also have to land for a customs and immigration check as well.
Your question does not rate a reply in the military section because of your claim its a Military Gazelle HT MK2 either.

Who would I contact to get my daughter tested for dyslexia?
I've recently noticed some things that make me wonder if my daughter might be dyslexic. Not sure what to do or who to contact.
Thank you for your help.|||every school offers free exam. Call her school|||You do this through the school not the doctor, dyslexia is not an illness or disease. Help is given with specialised teaching which helps dyslexic to overcome their difficulties.
Make an appointment with her teacher or principle and ask for the school to arrange for her to be tested. If she is dyslexic the sooner this is done the better.
You could look at these websites which will also give you more of an idea whether she is or not.|||If you want to test for dyslexia you need to see a neurologist. Not an eye doctor (they can do some vision tracking things) not the school (they can do a comprehensive evaluation that included IQ and academic levels and possibilities of Learning Disability but NOT Dyslexia)
That said - the easiest way to start is with the school if there is an academic need - they will do most testing that would be required but dyslexia is a specific diagnosis and schools do not (or should not) diagnose. They can to testing that will pinpoint strengths and weakness, if your child is a visual or auditory learner etc. Most of the adaptations, instruction and support provided students with a learning disability would be useful if she has dyslexia.

So, for example, you could have a 2 year old tested even if he's not in school yet, because of the district boundaries. I would ask the teacher, but the district will have the testing personnel. If there is a great need and or your daughters in a large school there may be a person there in special ed that will do the testing. Otherwise their may be a person who rotates schools each day.
I would first ask the teacher for info. If she doesn't know, or doesn't seem to be on top of making that happen, I would ask the principal or call the school district office and ask them how they do the testing and who needs to refer them, and if you need a dr's note or something.
I would definitely turn to the school first before you spend money you may not need to.|||you can go to your nearest doctors office or an eye doctor who can tell if they really do see differently or its just for right now.

here are some symptoms for you
Signs of dyslexia in children who are too young for school include:
* Talking later than expected.
* Being slow to learn new words.
* Problems rhyming.
* Problems following directions that have many steps.
After a child begins school, the signs of dyslexia include:
* Problems reading single words, such as a word on a flash card.
* Problems linking letters with sounds.
* Confusing small words, such as "at" and "to."
* Reversing the shapes of written letters such as "d" for "b." For example, the child may write "dat" instead of "bat."
* Writing words backward, such as "tip" for "pit."
good luck .email me if you need any more info|||talk to her teacher and others in the school. if anyone is concerned they will do testing and put her in a program if needed. had my daughter tested for something else and she finally excelled in high school. it takes time to test and get the papers. it's also free|||I am not to sure how old your daughter is but if she is in school, talk to her teacher.

Who should we contact regarding condition of our house?
My ex-wife recently rented house in a hurry. Basically she had to move out of the place she was in rapidly. The house she is in now is relatively sub-standard, ants, bad plumbing, slum-lord style. She is refusing to pay rent until the landlord makes some necessary repairs to the house which he refuses to do. I have seen the house and fully agree with her. Who should she/we contact as far as getting the house inspected and written up so he (the landlord) has to make needed repairs.|||Was there a "walk-through" of some type prior to your ex taking possesion of the home? If there wasn't and she's been there for a while you may want to be careful about how you proceede. The landlord may imply or accuse your ex of causing the problems that you are noticing. With her not paying rent he may try (and be succesful) to not only collect back rent but also bills for "repairs" that need to be done.
Certainly a lawyer or tennants rights organization are the places to start.
As far as inspections, building and code inspectors may be a way to go and health dept also (possibly). I don't know how quickly they'll respond, though. While I think everyone should have home inspections prior to taking possesion and every 5 years or so, this may be the one instance that it would do you no good. A home inspector will find functional and safety issues (not code violations in most areas), however as I stated above, your ex-may get stuck with the bill for any work or damage (how does the court know if it was there prior to her moving in?) that is present.
After reading this, I should add that I am not in favor of the conditions you describe. Landlords shoud provide safe housing for their tennants. My point is that this could get ugly in a hurry and you should be prepared for what the landlord may try.|||Start with code enforcement and the health department. Arrange to have both departments do inspections. They will basically do the rest for you as they will cite the owner to make the repairs within a specified period of time. If there are insects, check to see whether your city has either vector control or a department that handles insect infestations. (Code enforcement may also handle that.)
She really legally cannot withhold the rent and faces the real possiblity of being evicted for non-payment. What she can do is notify the landlord in writing of all of the work that needs to be done. Tell the landlord in the letter that she is arranging for inspections, will get estimates to have the work done and will arrange to have the work done if he does not within 30 days and she will deduct the full amount of the repairs and work from her rent. Make sure she takes pictures, too.|||contact the local housing athority. i would not want to pay rent for a place like that my self, but unless she takes some legal action she can get in trouble for not paying rent.|||One of the first things she can do is buy Sevin and sprinkle that around the inside of the house, especially in the kitchen. She should make sure she cleans the kitchen every day to keep crumbs and food cleaned up. She can also buy liquid Sevin and attach it to the hose and spray around the outside of the house so it not only gets rid of ants but other critters, too. I use powdered Sevin in the house because it will last longer than sprays and continue to protect for a couple of weeks. She can then sweep it up and put more down.
Sevin is not dangerous to pets or children, another reason I use it rather than something else.
Take pictures of all the problems or document them in other ways through witnesses r a plumber who can give her a written estimate on what it will cost to repair the problems. She should have two copies of the pictures made and make sure she keeps a copy for herself and one for court if it goes that far.
As far as not paying the rent, she is only going to get herself in trouble by withholding that so I don't advise it but she should make sure she gets a receipt for everything she gives the landlord.
She needs to contact the Tenant's Union in her area. They can help renters who have to deal with slumlords and may well be able to help her get out of there and into a better place.
