What would you like to ask today? Shipping?

I accidentally ordered a book off of Barnes and Noble for college. I put the address, city, and state down correctly. The only thing I put down wrong was the zip code. I do not know what to do. I need this book ASAP and I'm afraid USPS will not deliver it to the right location. What should I do?

How to get rid of these ants?

They are driving me insane! We sprayed around the outside of the house, around every nook and cranny in the kitchen. Up the walls and around the doors. I have been getting rid of food right away and wiping up all the crumbs. The spray sure did a great job killing on contact. And apparently it really did create a space where the ants wouldn't go (for a little while at least) but all that meant was that the ants moved on to other strange places where they weren't before. Like in my pots and pans cabinet. And crawling around my refrigerator door water/ice dispenser. Not inside of it, just around it. And then up to the top of my fridge where there is never any food kept. I just started a wonderful crock pot dinner only to come back a few minutes later to find some crawling around the lid. Dinner RUINED! They weren't on the counter this time, apparently since they were in the pots and pans cabinet (which I found out right after starting the meal) they must have been inside the CLEAN crock pot base and the heat must have scared them all out into the top. I'm completely disgusted! I've even started to find them crawling around my 2 year old's floor every night when I put him to bed, and we never let him have any food in there! There are always a couple wondering around my tub too. Every now and then I even find them on me!!! I know that its almost fall and I am hopeful that means they will just disappear but I am hearing stories of all year round ants that are really starting to get me scared. What can I do? And something practical that can be used with a child, a baby on the way and a cat in the house?

I forgot my interviewer's name. Will I not get the job?

The interview went really well, it was for working at barnes and noble. However I forgot the interviewers name as usual. Thus at the end I said great meeting you, and she said thank you Neal. I knew this was coming and I assume she thought I was going so say her name, but I didn't. Leading to some awkwardness.

Is it possible that something like this can be a deal breaker? It went extremely well up to that point. She even gave me a time when she should be getting back to me about the second interview, after she interviews everyone else. I just feel like I screwed up… I can never remember names… especially on the spot.
Added (1). Haha Guido, that made me laugh more than it should.

How to get Dr. Horrible Comics?

I've been trying to find the comics such as Moist: Humidity Rising, Penny: Keep Your Head Up, and Be Like Me online, but all I've been able to find are links to myspace that don't seem to work. I tried finding them on the Barnes' N Nobles website and I did find one Dr. Horrible comic (called Dr. Horrible) but nothing else. Where would I be able to get the other comics? (online or otherwise) Also, I tried to see if the comic I found at Barnes N Nobles wasn't simply a collection of all Dr. Horrible comics, but it wasn't very clear. Please also let me know if it is a collection of them all (or a few, particularly the others I mentioned) or a separate comic.

Do college textbook edition really matter?

Meteorology Today: An Introduction to Weather, Climate, and the Environment
Edition: 10th

That is the book I am told to get, but when I was looking through online on Amazon, Ebay, and Barnes and Noble, I found older editions a bit cheaper. The book I am told to get is 10th Edition, but is there any problem if I get 8th or 9th Edition?

Do they have any difference.

Are they demanding too much of her?

I have an 11 year old cousin who has a 13 and 14 year old step brother and step sister. Her step brother gets C's and B's while her step sister get's A's.Straight A's.And my cousin is not so good at math. She even has to take an intensive class in math just to catch up. But she excels in reading. But the thing is, she will get the occasional C in Social Studies, Math, or Science. And when she gets those grades, her parents ground her for weeks, or maybe even months. She once got her Nook taken away and her mom promised to give it back by summer, and that was when she was in the fourth grade and she never got it back. All for a C. Her parents only accept A's and B's.My cousin has tried to tell her mom that if she get's C's, it's because she doesn't understand. But her mom insists it's because she doesn't pay attention. Her dad never grounds her brother or sister for it, but her parents ground her. Are they being too hard on my 11 year old cousin?

Between bunnies, and dogs, and any other animal which is more suitable?

My problem is that I really want a pet. However, due to lifestyles, the state of my home, and financial situation, I do not know what pet I should get.

My requirements:
Something that needs exercise anywhere from once a week for an hour to six days out of seven for an hour.
Something that shows affection.
Something that communicates, but isn't overly loud. I enjoy the howling of huskies, or when animals 'talk back', but the other occupant of the house works nights so it wouldn't be a good idea if they barked a lot.
Something I can take with me. I ride the bus and my bike a lot so I'd like to be able to walk them or carry them with me to friend's house.
Something that generally does well with other animals, only really concerned with other dogs and cats.
Something that does well with people.
Something that doesn't cost much. For instance, I don't have to buy it expensive food, or I can buy regular groceries and share with it (vegetables/pure meat strips). Or I can give it make-shift toys to play with.
Something that is adorable, and for a dog, something masculine. I know I'm discriminating here, but I really wouldn't be comfortable with a dog that fits with the elderly woman, or the posh and pampered women.
Something that can be chill and sit on my lap as I watch a movie or do homework.
Something that doesn't get into the nooks and crannies and gets lost and other such horrors.
Something that doesn't destroy my stuff.
I don't really care if they dog needs physical maintenance such as bathes, teeth brushing, hair brushing and nail clipping at least once a week. I know that is kinda a stretch but I know some animals need to be brushed once a week and I'm up for it.

The above listed, I am fully aware, can be the out comes of an sub-par care-taking on the owner's part.So this is what I have to give as an owner.

Walking the dog 5-15 for potty walks that adhere to its eating schedule.
Playing with it for about an hour daily, on occasions doing something special like hikes or special doggie parks.
Taking it out to socialize with people and other animals.
Treating it with respect.
Taking time to get it used to things like bikes, cars and water.
Taking time to train it.
Bonding with it in general.
Treating it like my fur baby/child.

The situation of the house:
The house is a typical small ranch style house.
Our backyard is hard to determine, but it is rather long, but about ten feet from the back side of the house to the other side of the fence.
We've got a imperfections in the fence that we can't really get into to ensure no escape.
The outside is prone to squirrel, pesky birds, and at night, raccoon and the occasional possum.
I leave every fourth week for a week. The pet would be left in the care of someone who sleeps during the day and leaves the house frequently. They can give the animal minimal attention, let it into the back yard to do it's business/clean the litter box and feed it. The house is rather messy, exposed wire, bags and the main trash can is not kept in the cabinet. I personally can try my best to hide some wires, but that is about it.

I've looked to birds, lizards, cats, dogs and bunnies but I always find something wrong with them. I dearly need a companion to put my extra energy to since I graduated high school.
Added (1). So far I've been interested in Schipperke, Blue Tongued Skinks, any bonded pair of rabbits, Huskys, English Bull Dogs and Toy American Eskimo,

What does it mean when a book's a movie tie-in?

I was browsing the Barnes & Noble website when I saw a Tolkien 4 book set containing The Hobbit and all three of the Lord of the Rings book for cheap. However in the product description it said 'movie tie-in'. Does this mean they're basically a novelization of the movie version of The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings? I love the movies but I want to read the original books with all the parts that were cut out of the films.

Can I return something I bought online at barnes and noble?

I bought, well my mom bought $200 worth of books for ap classes 2 months ago. I ordered online because the books were not available at the local store.
I found out a couple days ago, I could not take those classes so I'm transferring into another school which has the ib program, c

Can I exchange these books, they are all in mint condition because I didn't really use them. I have a copy of a receipt for 6/8 books
Because they were shipped at different times.

Do I need the receipt at all?

How to get a free Nook or Kindle?

I have scoliosis. The lower curve is 20° and the upper curve is 30°.My back is in a lot of pain even if I only have one book in my backpack. (I'm aware of backpacks with wheels, but those aren't allowed at school.)
I don't think we're poor, but my parents don't have any money after they pay the bills.My mom has terminal cancer and my dad only spends money on me when the social workers yell at him. I've tried asking relatives, but none of them have any spares or can afford one.My parents make too much money to be on government assistance so I don't think any charities would help. I have no friends so I can't really ask anybody else that I know.
Added (1). (Yes I'm aware that this is in the wrong category, but I figured I'd get more answers here.)
Added (2). Also, I'm not allowed to get a job until I graduate and I don't have an allowance. I'm not allowed to do odd jobs either.

Can I download Nook Study on a Microsoft Surface RT?

I bought an e textbook from barnes and noble and I wanted to know if Nook study is compatable with windows 8, specifically on the Surface RT. I really just want to be able to view my textbooks on a tablet because it would be much more convenient than carrying around textbooks.

Thanks!

Do you have a Kindle or Nook?

What kind? I got a Kindle Paperwhite last Christmas but I've barely used it. I just got some books that were free on there now and I'm going to force myself to use it.

BQ: What's something people always say about you? My mom consistently says I belong in a different decade. From the music I listen to to the music I like to the kinds of books I read, my mom says I would've fit right in. I'd agree with her.
Added (1). By the way, if you're considering purchasing an ebook, the Kindle Paperwhite is the best one for reading on, I won't lie.It has a ton of features and is far better than the original Kindle. The Kindle Fire is good for reading too I guess, but it's more like a tablet and has more purposes than just reading. The Paperwhite is perfect if you are, like me, just using it to read on.

I don't think I can cope with moving?

I'm an early teenager and my parents are divorced. I go back and forth between houses.My Dad lives in the city and my mom lives about 20-30 minutes from there. I go to school And such near my dad's. About three days ago my mom and I were complaining about the traffic between my mom's house and school, just a daily thing. I spent the next night at my dad's and when I came back my mom told me we were going to meet a real estate agent to see a house they saw online. I started panicking because I didn't want to move.My mom and step dad gave me a talk about how ghis is a starter home and 10 years is a long enough time and Iit's time to get a bigger house. They also don't like living around people. We're really into camping and being away from civilization. I understand all of this and I have no problem moving away from where we are, I don't have any neighborhood friends or anything. I wouldn't change schools because we'd just be up north so about the same distance from my dad's house and an hour from my current house. We went to see the house yesterday and It was perfect. Everything we could ever want.It needs a little bit of work but it could be amazing. There's a highschool nearby which means a lot of people around my age unlike here. On the drive home I started crying.It's not the neighborhood I'd miss.It's the house. I spent basicallly my whole life here. Every nook and cranny has a memory. We have four dogsso I guess it's a little small but it's the most perfect housee to me. We'd have to paint over my height measurements fom when I was 3 to now. Thehouse is in high deman which means we'd have to ork fast to buy it, and my mom's already cleaning up the house to show. I can't move away from mychildhood.

Recommendation for an E-Book Tablet/Device?

Im currently a student at a community college and when it comes to carrying books it is pain in the back literally! Ive heard people mentioning about an e book device or tablet where u can buy and download books on one device that u can carry around without carrying the extra weight of actual books. Ive also heard people mention that there are many tablets or devices that do that such as the nook, Kindle, Kindle fire hd, etc. Honestly, I dont know much about these things so im asking for everybodys opinion, advice, and recommendations on what should I do and/or look into? I really dont want to keep carrying heavy books all the time so im asking what device would work best? I would highly appreciate all responses that are given to me :)
Thanks in advance! :) Have a safe holiday everyone!

One of my favorite bands is releasing an album later this month and I really wanted to make sure I can get it day of release. Even though they're not extremely popular, I don't want to risk it.
