Bath Chair Lift


Answers

Can I return a used Bed, Bath & Beyond chair I've had for a week?

It's an "easy to assemble" computer chair with a mesh back (it's called a task chair on their website) and I've had it for a week. I noticed yesterday that I had to push the gas lift every time I went to sit back down after getting up. I took it downstairs and showed my parents and there was oil residue on the metal that holds up the chair seat. It got so bad that when I sat down while it was at maximum height I could actually feel it moving down to minimum height within seconds.

I pulled off the material tags because they were hanging down that say "Do not remove until delivered to customer" OF COURSE a few hours before the problem started. Can I still get a refund or store credit for it?


Yeah, just take the chair and the receipt back to them. They will oblige.

My mum drives me to insanity?

She is lonely and wants to move house because nobody likes her. She moves house and then wants to go back because nobody likes her and it was much better there.

She is lonely and complains because she sees no-one and what if she has an accident. A neighbour offers to be on call, but she says that's no good because they go on holiday.

We suggest she gets warden accommodation, but she says she's better on her own, then complains about being on her own again.

We suggest she joins a social club, but she says they are all old and she will have to get the bus. We offer to take her, and she makes all other reasons not to. If she makes a friend they will probably die, and she will wish she never made a friend in the first place.

So recently, she fell down in the street and she complained about the person who helped her get up. A month later she starts talking about stair lifts and can't get in the bath.

We advise her to go to the doctor, but NO she will be around ill people and doesn't want to go. She is complaining about the price of stair lifts and bath chairs, and we said why not wait until you know if it's going to get better first?

It does my head in.
btw before anyone suggests it's because of her age, she has behaved like this since I was born!!


What about sheltered housing, she would have her own rooms, lounge,bedroom, kitchen,bathroom, and her own front door, but there would always be someone on call if needed, they have a large comunity room and dining if required, they go on trips, and have freedom to be private,or join in if they want.They are safe from intruders, so family don`t have to worry so much. try your local council. hope this helps.

how do I break a 7 month old pup to stop marking territory inside our home.?

He does well with his stool, using a doggie box, but prefers to lift his leg and urinate an a bathroom door, a wood door jam and the wood bath sink cabinet. I've tried all I know, Apple bitter, pet odor control products, scolding to no avail. He's also marked a plush chair and the skirt of a couch- Ready to tie a string in it! HELP


Get him fixed!! a male dog marks what he thinks is his, u must catch him marking the sofa ect... a firm NO and a touch on his neck like what his mom would do, take him to where its to be done. you must catch him.
Vinegar and water spray or in a carpet cleaning machine works wonders on pet stains and smells...your house will smell like a pickle for a day or so, but animals hate how strong it is. and will not mark on it again

Please get him de nutted though it not only saves lives but it calms the dog down to a point and his bad male traits will be subdued.

Getting him fixed will not change his size... that is in his GENES he will not get any bigger or smaller if you get him fixed and breeding should be left to the experts.
however waiting to get him fixed will not help much in the temperment and marking.

hope that helps

does anybody understand the 'hallelujah' lyrics by rufus wainwright?

I heard there was a secret chord
That David played and it pleased the Lord
But you don't really care for music, do you?
It goes like this, the fourth, the fifth, the minor fall, the major lift, the baffled king composing Hallelujah
Your faith was strong but you needed proof, you saw her bathing on the roof, her beauty in the moonlight overthrew you
She tied you to a kitchen chair, she broke your throne, she cut your hair, and from your lips she drew the Hallelujah

wtf?


This is the best I could find you for you. Hope this helps somewhat.


Hallelujah - Rufus Wainwright
I've heard there was a secret chord
That David played, and it pleased the Lord
But you don't really care for music, do you?
It goes like this: the fourth, the fifth
The minor fall, the major lift
The baffled king composing Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Your faith was strong, but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty in the moonlight overthrew you;
She tied you to a kitchen chair,
She broke your throne, she cut your hair,
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Maybe I've been here before
I know this room, I've walked this floor
I used to live alone before I knew you
I've seen your flag on the marble arch
Love is not a victory march
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

There was a time you let me know
What's real and going on below
But now you never show it to me, do you?
And remember when I moved in you,
The Holy Dark was moving too
And every breath we drew was Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Maybe there's a God above
And all I ever learned from love
Was how to shoot at someone who outdrew you;
It's not a cry you can hear at night
It's not somebody who's seen the light
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah



Song/Lyrics Notes: This song is found on Shrek - Music from the Original Motion Picture album.
What it Means to Me: This is quite possibly my favorite song. Hallelujah is a cover of a Leonard Cohen song, although the lyrics are adjusted. References are made to the story of King David of the Bible (he impregnated Bathsheba, who was married, and who he found bathing on a roof; when his plans to get her husband back in time to cover up the fact that he was the father, he has him killed; the cover-up led to David's undoing in the end). The lines that touch me most are: "All I ever learned from love/was how to shoot at someone who outdrew you", and, "Remember when I moved in you?/the Holy Dark was moving too/and every breath we drew was Hallelujah", which is a reference to sexual intimacy as ecstatic (Pluto in astrology). Here, themes include the breaking of vows, transformation through love.



Here's another answer that was a Yahoo Answers! reply to the same question basically.


Yeah Rufus Wainwright did not write the song,but in my opinion he sang it best.

I think it strongly speaks of David. In fact I think the Rufus is drawing a parallel between himself and King David of the Bible. David played his harp and it was soothing to King Saul and pleased the Lord. Notice how the arpeggios mimic the soft plucking of harp strings. Later in David's adult life, after he became King, he succumbed to temptation observing Bathsheba (The wife of Uriah, one of David's Generals)) bathing on the roof. He sent for her, they slept together, she got pregnant and David secretly had her husband killed during a battle. This action brought calamity upon the house of David. So in a sense this event did break the throne by breaking David. The idea of cutting hair is not so much linked to Sampson as it is a reference to a Nazarite (of which Sampson was one) who take a vow not to cut their hair. In My opinion this is a song about broken relationships and broken vows. How all of us are tempted to break the “vows” of relationships. Through the heartache of these tragedies we gain perspective on life. In the third and fourth verse introspection seems to be in the forefront of the lyrics.He’s seen more than his share of heartache. Love is not a victory march; it’s filled with agony and heartbreak as well as magic and fulfillment. Real love is painful, it’s not a cry in the night, nor is it all bright lights. At times it can be a cold and broken hallelujah – but it’s still a hallelujah.


A New Lift For An Old Bathtub | firstSTREET Reports

Before each taping of my weekly “Gadgets” feature, I set up and test the product on the set and show each cameraman the angles I want for them to shoot during the segment. I have never gotten such a reaction from them as I did when I demonsrated The Archemedes Bath Lift…it seemed everyone knew someone that really needed this unique device…a brother with a broken ankle..a dad with arthritis..a grandmother that needed help getting into the bathtub to bathe. They had never seen anything like it and I’m glad that I introduced it to them.

The Archemedes Bath Lift can lower and raise a person up to 330 lbs. into the tub.

That may sound simple, but to thousands of people afraid of falling as they negotiate the 15″-21″ that are the sides of the tub, it’s a miracle. Bathrooms are extremely expensive to convert, yet it is usually the bathroom that is the reason most have to eventually move out of a house that has been a home for decades. The Archemedes Bath Lifts are a very simple solution to this problem. And it works.
