Intro and a Q
Hi everybody, I'm Elle. I have a few questions. First of all, I have an appointment to meet with an acupuncturist this Monday and presumably start the "procedure" (don't know what to call it) then. I'm seeking this out with the hopes of decreasing my anxiety and relieving depression. I also suffer from arthritis in my knees, as a result of a car wreck from a few years ago. I also experience back pain and tension. I've been told acupuncture can help with all of this, so I'm excited! Onto my questions: - Is it possible for acupuncture to worsen/intensify my anxiety or depression? - Should I check with my doctor/PT about the arthritis/knee issue? I don't know if she should be putting needles too close to or on my knees, or if she even would. - I haven't told anyone that I'm going, for personal reasons, I want to keep it to myself. Will I have visible or strange marks? |

LiveJournal Major Notes: Get your holiday fix!
Holiday debuggeryWe know there were a few kinks with the holiday promotion. We've been working very hard to get them ironed out. If you have a paid/permanent account, keep on sending those coupons. Here's an update:
- If you were unable to send out multiple coupons at a time, please perform a hard refresh, and you should be good to go.
- If you redeemed a coupon to upgrade your account and the balance at checkout was $0 instead of $9.95 or $15, this means your upgrade did not go through (nor were you charged). We've straightened this out, so you can now apply your holiday coupon toward the purchase of an annual paid account.
- If you tried to redeem a holiday coupon and had trouble using a gift certificate to cover the balance of an annual paid account, we identified the root problem. If this happened to you, you can now use your holiday coupon together with your gift certificate.
- If the number of holiday coupons you have available suddenly goes up (instead of down), this might be due to recipients declining the coupons, at which point your pool of available coupons will be replenished and, therefore, increase.
- If you need assistance with holiday coupons or pretty much anything else (well, LiveJournal related), please open a support request and we'll be more than happy to help!
Tweaks- There were some initial glitches displaying results on My Guests, but we've worked them out. We hope you'll check out who's been checking you out!
- Some of you reported formatting issues using the Rich Text Editor (i.e., line breaks were being removed incorrectly). We've implemented a fix! Thanks so much for your patience.
Give a little extra!
We're pleased to report that we've already sold over 100 virtual red ribbons in honor of National AIDS Awareness month. Remember, for each charitable vgift you purchase for $2.99, we'll donate 100 percent of gross proceeds to IAVI.org (the International AIDS Vaccine Initiative) to fund the development of an HIV vaccine. Once again, we thank you for your generosity.
Celebrate with holiday vGifts!
Stop by the Virtual Gift Shop and share some holiday magic with your LiveJournal friends.

Congrats to ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) marlenemcc, who has been awarded a virtual blue ribbon as the winner of our fourth photo contest.

Structural Engineer
We found a house we like but there is a crack in the foundation (where the carpet would be) from the front of the house to the back of the house. Yes you can fit a quarter in it. Yes, it is somewhat uneven. What I need I am told before I even think of buying this place is a structural engineer to asses the situation. So anyone know who to call and how much it cost? Any advice pertaining to foundation cracks would be greatly appreciated. |

My birthday is in three days. My dad usually takes me out for lunch or dinner on my birthday. Since my birthday is Christmas Eve, most places close at strange times, which complicates things. To complicate things further, my dad is vegetarian, so relatively vege-friendly is important (he'll get over it if he doesn't have a TON of options - but a couple would be good, at least). Anybody got any really amazing suggestions for me? I will be 22, so age restrictions are unimportant.

Hello Atlantans! Could anyone recommend his/her internet provider, please? I am just too tired of the "quality" of AT&T's DSL Extreme. ( 25 disconnects in less than 24 hours )The SNR ratio on the modem is perfect and AT&T technician that visited my house said this is definitely an issue outside of my house. Clear states there are 5 towers in my area and I might give them a trial early next year. Thanks! ... and Merry Christmas/Happy Kwanzaa/Have a great Winter Solstice/Great Yul/Happy New Year/Happy Diwali/Happy Chinese New Year/Hanukkah's already over/etc etc |

Xmas Lights?
Where are there any good neighborhood light displays this year? Driving around listening to holiday music and looking at lights is a yearly tradition, but I haven't seen anything good this year so far. In fact, I haven't seen but a house here and there with lights up, it's bringing me down man :( |

New Year's Day
A friend will be in town for a couple of days around the new year. She's never been here before, and her one free day for us to hang out is January 1st. Is anything "touristy" around town open that day, or should I just drive us around and point at stuff? She's interested in the historical stuff, but she's up for anything. Thanks, guys. :) |

To access this option, please visit settings for any community you maintain and select the third option in the Community Moderation box (located in the lower left-hand corner).

 HellFire is a once a month experience that embraces the things esoteric. Sometimes it's industrial, sometimes gothabilly, sometimes it's dark dance. It's about art, be it music, art, movies or performance. It's the art of being and doing. nce that embraces the things esoteric. Sometimes it's industrial, sometimes gothabilly, sometimes it's dark dance. It's not my party, it belongs to a strange but fun fellow but he like me and asked me to help him, he has has never ran a party but he has ran some pretty different stuff. He's an ex freemason, Brother of the Pythias, and a Thelemic Knight. the Gospel of HellFire presents mankind as being in a fallen state. We are dead, we are blind and drunk, we do not know the truth, are impoverished, divided and in darkness. But there is another state, a state of HellFire. In the new state we will be alive, will be able to see, will be intoxicated rather than drunk, will know the truth instead of lies. Art never lies, it just is, in the basking of art we shall have real wealth, and be in the light. Come get some HellFire in you! Current Mood:  chipper |

Neil Gaiman at Agnes Scott College 12/14/09
Had an amazing time last night at the Neil Gaiman reading/book signing at Agnes Scott thanks to the great people at The Little Shop of Stories. Neil read to the crowd of over 1000 from "Odd & The Frost Giants" and "The Graveyard Book", answered questions, and then settled in for 7 hours of signing books and taking pictures with fans. The simple fact that while that many people waited up to seven hours to meet him there was no pushing, shoving, or rudeness, speaks volumes about Neil and the type of people who are drawn to his work. The crowd sat quietly, chatted, read books, and watched each others belongings as people took bathroom and snack breaks. I really have to hand it to the Agnes Scott staff and the staff of The Little Shop of Stories for working their asses off to make sure everyone had a great time. And of course, thank you to Neil Gaiman for treating your fans with such respect.  Neil reading to the fans from "Odd & The Frost Giants". |

Book fair runs through this Friday... please help :)
Good morning! I found out that our book fair code is actually good for a week (I'd been promoting it as one-day only), so if you do get out and do any shopping at Barnes & Noble, please keep this in mind. I work as a librarian at a low-income, Title I high school in the metro area, and the average publication date of our library books is 1982.The 80's are a real blast, but not when they represent the bulk of the information available for students. You have the opportunity to help change this, and if you're super nice, I might tell you to "shhhhhhhhhhh!", as librarians are wont to do! If you shop at ANY Barnes & Noble through Friday, December 18, and use our school's book fair code, a portion of the sales will come back to us. Books, CDs, DVDs, and even cafe purchases are eligible (no gift cards or memberships, and no on-line purchases). Simply provide the cashier with this code: 10050896. Put a dent in your holiday shopping with something for everyone on your list! Thanks! |

Does anybody here read or collect manga? Or maybe there's somebody on your Christmas list that does? I'm about to move, and since I never read my manga anymore I figure it's silly to bother bringing it along. I've got a ton of titles and would be willing to let them go for pretty cheap. Make me an offer for one, some, or all of them! All are in great (like new) condition and in English unless noted. If number of volumes is not indicated, assume it's ONLY the first volume. I am happy to provide more information or pictures - if you want to know more about the artist, the story, or the condition of ANYTHING listed below, let me know! ( full list of titles under here )I've also got fifteen volumes of manga magazines for girls - mostly Ribon and Betsucomi. These are chunky compilations of lesser-known manga artists, and usually have 6-7 different manga in them (one volume of each manga). They're in Japanese, but are GREAT language learning tools (all of the Kanji are spelled out in hiragana above or below) or art references (most of the art is pretty good). These are in varying conditions, none below "fair". Finally, I also have a small collection of "starter" Japanese language books - a Japanese-English dictionary, a phrasebook, and two Kanji writing/reading practice books. Make me an offer on any/all of the above! I consider any reasonable offer - I REALLY don't want to move all this stuff since I know I'll never use it. (Cross-posted to atlanta and ljatlanta) |
