rmahadevan answers:

The difference is in how you adjust the date. On the Date you have to wind to hour and minute hands until you get to the right date, but on Datejust, you can adjust the date alone.

The Datejust is also a bit larger (only 2 mm).

So from what I can tell, it is not interchangable

rmahadevan answers:

Is the Rolex that you are interested in new or pre-owned? And to clarify, are you considering a Datejust or Day-Date (a.k.a. President)? In addition to the date located at the 3 o’clock position on both time pieces, the Day-Date has the weekday between the 11 o’clock and 1 o’clock position.

A silver colored Datejust is either going to be stainless steel, stainless steel and white gold, or white gold.

If it is a pre-owned Datejust with a President bracelet, the previous owner could have had Rolex upgrade with a genuine Rolex white gold bracelet or the owner may have bought an aftermarket “President”-style bracelet, which could be either stainless steel or white gold.

A silver colored Day-Date (a.k.a. President) is either white gold or platinum. No stainless steel model.

rmahadevan answers:

Only at a reputable jeweler who is an authorized seller of Rolex watches. There are many phonies out there selling fakes so be careful.

Sounds like you have a watch that carries alot of sentimental value for you (and a classic one too).

rmahadevan answers:

Yeah, of course! But ask for it when you’re buying something because they’re not so nice if you just go for the samples, so to speak. Also, you can try like any perfume out in the store! Have one of the associates to help you choose a perfume and then just ask fro a sample!

Also, Sephora has a very good return policy… They stake used items back. I bought this face wash from there once for like 28 bucks and I didn’t like it (after using it once or twice) so I brought it back for a full refund!

Good luck:)

rmahadevan answers:

I think you should go to a Sephora store and talk to the manager

rmahadevan answers:

I don’t know if you receive the newsletter but I get one from sephora almost every week and I think that they also change the free samples every week , if the don’t change it weekley at least I think that it is every 15 days.

rmahadevan answers:

No, not really. You can get eggs that have some omega 3s but that only works if you eat a very large number of eggs. Some seeds including flax and chia seeds contain ALA omega 3 fatty acids but not EPA nor DHA omega 3 fatty acids. While ALAs are nice too, they are only 10% converted into the other omega 3s so you’ll still be short on some omega 3s. Your best bet is fish oil. If you’re morally opposed to that then I think there are algae or bacteria based omega 3 supplements but I’ve never seen who sells them, so start hunting.

Even though omega 3 eggs come from chicken fed flax, they convert more of the ALA into other omega 3s.

rmahadevan answers:

Plant based omega 3′s do not have EPA or DHA, they have ALA. EPA & DHA are only found in cold water fish.

Omega 3 & Omega 6 fatty acids are only found in polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA’s) I do not recommend PUFA oils. PUFA’s are fine in whole foods, but the oils are fragile & oxidize (go rancid) when exposed to air & oxidized oil creates free radical damage in the body.

I recommend eating whole foods only whether it be fish or chia seeds.

rmahadevan answers:

Taking omega 3 supplement may help PPD. Omega 3 is an important supplement to get in diet and americans often do not get enough (plant, nut, fish oils). The body does not make omega 3 oil, but it’s critical to brain health and operation, as well as cardiovascular and joint health. It helps to relieve inflammation. The studies show mixed results on whether it seems to help depression and PPD. It seems that it helps best when an antidepressant is the main medicine.

rmahadevan answers:

Medium sized Longchamp Le Pliage is 58€. And that’s the regular price everywhere in France, whether it’s Paris or Nice. So it looks like your husband got ripped off because as I said 58€ is the normal price, it was definitely not on sale. Large size is 72€ and small size is 48€.
You can check on the Loncgchamp website (link below).

rmahadevan answers:

You can go to Longchamp’s online site to find the current selection. Other sites just have the plain nylon fabric or just of the printed fabrics below:

Weekend Pass (be prepared to buy your tix the moment they go on sale)
Car Camping Pass or book hotel now if you want to go that route
Rental Car to get you from the airport or shuttle (but having your car will allow you to sightsee)
Camping Stuff
Plenty of food on site
No beverages allowed in the festival itself
Alcohol inside the fest is restricted to specific areas

You’re basically going into survival mode for a few days so be sure to bring what will keep you most comfortable. Definitely prepare for heat. It’s a great festival in an amazing setting and I highly recommend you making the trip!

End-sept 2012

rmahadevan answers:

The cheapest way is to buy them at presale but advanced tickets are sold out for 2013. Regular tickets should go onsale in January but you need to buy tickets as soon as they go onsale to avoid them being sold out.

rmahadevan answers:

Yes, you can over wind some watches and bind up the spring or mechanism.

Since the winding stem is ratchets, you can wind it back and forth like your mother suggested, but it will do nothing to “unwind” the watch. (like peddling backward on a ten-speed bike)

The watch is not destroyed and some gentle and consistent jarring may help get the mech moving again. Otherwise it needs to be opened and relieved. Do not do this yourself unless you don’t care about the watch.

rmahadevan answers:

Very good choice, I would stick with that if I were you!

rmahadevan answers:

Which continent?

Africa, Antarctica, Asia, Australia, Europe, North America, or South America.

rmahadevan answers:

You are experiencing why it is so hard to kill mulberry bushes–they keep sending up new plants from underground rhizomes. You’re going to have to cut the main plant down to the ground and if there is a stump six inches or wider you should get some stump remover (one is pretty effective that uses kerosene with it) or get someone with a stump grinder and grind it out. Grinding is quicker but more expensive.

Next cut all the shoots down to the ground. Don’t spray them with weed killer because that could damage the lawn. Then keep mowing over that area once a week even if the grass does not need cutting to make sure you cut off any new shoots while they are still young. With mulberries you’ll probably have to cut shoots for an entire growing season. They have an extensive root system which stores a lot of food. As long as those roots contain any food they will keep sending up shoots, but each time they do it uses up some of that stored energy. Once the stored energy is gone the roots will die and that will be the end of your problem.

One extra note: a few years after they die you may notice lots of mushrooms or other types of fungi growing in your lawn where the dead roots were. Don’t worry about them. They are decomposition fungi finishing off the final remains of the bush. When the mulberry is completely gone the fungi will disappear too.

rmahadevan answers:

Dig them up as much as you can. Then use a root killer or rock salt to kill the roots. If it’s legal in your area you can burn the roots first then use the salt.

rmahadevan answers:

Okay, birds first.
You can try hanging aluminum pie tins from the branches. If the tree is very big, you won’t be able to get to the top. This may elp deter them, but probably won’t stop them completely. You can also try scarecrows, but probably won’t work either. The only effective way to keep birds out is a netting over the whole tree.

Now the bugs
You will need to use an insecticide designed for use on crops. Sevin is a good all around choice. Use the liquid so that you can spray it over the whole tree. If you have a hose end sprayer, you can use that and put the sevin in the dispenser. Otherwise, you will mix and put in a pressure sprayer. You don’t need a license for sevin if you are in the US. You can try some of the alternatives, but no guarantees. Tobacco tea – boil some tobacco in water to make a strong solution and then dilute with water to spray. Add a couple teaspoons of dish detergent to help it adhere to the plant and break down the bug’s protection. Or cayenne pepper spray – water and cayenne pepper mixed and sprayed.

I think that ladies usually not into watching sports, so men have to hang with other men as it’s more fun to watch with someone else – share exciting moments.

rmahadevan answers:

I never did understand that, i guess it depends on the way you look at it

rmahadevan answers:

Yeah I don’t get it what’s the purpose of showing urinal conversations in pretty much every show, the conversation could have easily been had in any other room without affecting the plot. Maybe it’s supposed to make the show look more edgy or maybe they just like getting actors to pretend to piss on camera I don’t know.

rmahadevan answers:

Try calling the store and ask, but I’m guessing they’ll allow you to place your order over the phone. You can also request a catalog.

All of Cartier’s jewelry is pretty expensive because of the name and because they sell only gold or platinum. If you can’t find something within your price range there, try Tiffany’s. Tiffany‘s has a whole range of prices, including very affordable silver pieces. She might love Cartier, but she won’t be disappointed with something from Tiffany’s – all women love getting those aqua blue boxes.

rmahadevan answers:

I would take it to a fine jeweler, they usually have experience with high end watches and might even be able to tell you the value of it. If you don’t wish to take it in, you can also seek the many horology loving members of the Watchuseek forum. I’ve visited the forum for watch questions and there are many members who surely own Cartier watches.

rmahadevan answers:

100% Cartier – or 100% stainless steel?

The back MAY be of a different alloy – probably nickle or silver – and your body is creating an electrolytic reaction.

PURPOSELY get your watch wet and let it sit on your wrist until the area is dry, then look at the black patch – is it in a perfect circle of the back? Is it a VERY thin ring AROUND the back (it may be from a nickle seal used inside the backing). Is it a thicker ring around the outside (it may from the outer casing itself).

Personally, I think you have a counterfeit watch. Cartier makes some good watches and they use VERY high quality stuff – and they would use NOTHING but stainless in the outer casing if it were really a Cartier.

Did you (or whomever got it for you) get a REALLY good deal on it? Yuppers – it’s a fake. If not, you just got screwed.
