Janice: I have an old MP3 player by Intel. I use MusicMatch at home to manage my music. Mostly, I've copied all my CD's to my hard drive through MusicMatch, and have bought a few songs from MusicMatch. I can't download any of the songs that I bought through MusicMatch onto my Intel MP3...

Are you sweating a lot? When I started spinning, I felt like I had a hangover for the rest of the day. It would also happen if I went roller blading on a hot, humid day, despite drinking quite a bit of water during the activity. The only thing that works for me? Gatorade. I have one during...

I've had Verizon DSL for over two years now. My computer is on 24/7 and I have never had any problems. If you work in an office where you are "on-line" all the time and can surf through your browser, it's just like that. I run my email through Outlook Express and it's set up just like the...

Just to clarify my earlier post: Yes, I was referring to replacing the battery on the iPod, which has nothing to do with iTunes. I could not download music from iTunes and then copy it on to a Dell or Intel mp3 player. You can only download iTunes to an iPod mp3 player. I could download...

Hi Nancy! You can only use iTunes downloaded music on an iPod (and probably through your computer). I use MusicMatch also, and have downloaded tunes from them; however, it's not compatible with my very old Intel mp3 player. I plan to buy a Dell mp3 player, as that is what MusicMatch is...

I always resolve to take a class and learn something new. Last year it was a refresher sewing class. This year, I think it'll be bread making and/or wine tasting.

Two fun favorites are: How it All Vegan and The Garden of Vegan cookbooks by Sarah Kramer, Tanya Barnard. Available at Amazon.com. Really easy and delicious recipes. I think they are very good to get started.

My home IS my gym. I have to wear workout clothes that make me feel like I'm at the gym, otherwise, it's too easy blow it off. When I get home from work, I change into my "gym" clothes (nothing too expensive, but stylish, fitted workout clothes like boot cut pants and a long bra top). I only...

The Shell Collector by Anthony Doerr is a collection of short stories that won the Barnes & Noble Discover Great New Writers Award a couple of years ago. Edited to add: Cowboys Are My Weakness by Pam Houston is another great collection, as is the Girls' Guide to Hunting and Fishing by...

I'm 5'3", 118 lbs. and have everything in my closet from a 0 to an 8. I don't care what the tag says. If it fits and is flattering, I wouldn't care that it was a size 14! And as for the Gap: I just tried on a size "6A" (for ankle length). Not sure whose ankles they are talking about, but...

Wayne: Here in America it's on Showtime, a premium cable station (you have to pay extra for it). Same kind of thing for Sex & the City, which was on HBO. They are now playing Sex & the City on basic cable, but they had to tone down the sex a little ;-)

I had baskets on my spin bike for over a year and just changed to clips. I think Trevor is right that if I had concentrated hard enough with the baskets, I could have worked the push/pull thing a little more; however, now it's just automatic and I have to say I love them. I ride outside, too...

I have a bad knee too... ACL repair 14 years ago and am having surgery in October for cartilege issues. I have had no problems at all with any of the workouts in P90X. Tony Horton mentions having a bad leg in one of the workouts, and encourages you to modify. One of the background exercisers...

I got stung by two wasps last weekend (knee and knuckle). I took my ring off immediately and iced the areas. No swelling, no nothing all day long. I put the ring back on (you see where this is going?) only to wake up at 3:00 a.m. because my knee and my hand were swollen and itching horribly...

I was a paralegal for 13 years, then switched to publishing (no experience) and have lived happily ever after for the past 11 years! At first, I had to take a step down on the pay scale to get in the door, but eventually worked my way WAY up. You can do it! (and I was in my mid-30's when I...

Well, I love the Workout Blender, but understand if you need to eliminate it. I use the premixes probably more than the as-produced version. And I am guilty of not voicing my love for the past few series. I have a couple of freezes here and there, but never would have complained in a million...

What I got out of my personal training sessions was this: I was capable of working out a lot harder than I ever thought possible. I took that to my home workouts and that's when I started to see real progress. Worth every penny I spent.

Kathryn: You can make plow neck-friendly by doing the following: take a thick blanket (I use one of those like they use in live yoga classes to cover you during corpse pose... I'm sure there's a name for them, but I don't know what it is, but any thick blanket will do) and fold it to about...

I bought two sets (4 squares each) of the puzzle mats and am going back for another set of four. Every time I do the P90X Legs & Back workout, I feel like I need a little bit more room when they're doing those angled lunges... I'm thinking 4 across by 3 deep will be perfect. And yes, I put...
