I have a 08 Hyundai Accent with 160K on it. Automatic transmission. It will occasionally jolt like I hit a large speed bump or something. I can mostly get it to happen with highway off rams or clover leaf ramps where I have to slow down significantly and then speed back up around a curve. It feels like it's getting ready to shift into a lower gear but then when when I speed up it will lock or jolt or something.

The other day I took a slightly longer than usual trip (about 60 miles). Left the car off for a couple hours. When I started it up, white smoke out of the tail pipe (which is common enough as it has some stuck pistons), but for some reason it had trouble accelerating for the fir

A year or two ago I stopped using one of the burners on my stove because it would randomly just shoot up in temperature out of nowhere. Like I turn around to cut something for 30 seconds and the temperature of the pan would go from 350 to 580 and I would have to turn it off to get it stop climbing. Most of the time it would operate normally, but the frequency of occurences started to increase and I just stopped using the burner.

It started happening with another burner this week, so I finally need to fix it since I'm out of large burners now. I'm looking online and a lot of places say that this is usually a malfunctioning infinite switch. I just want to make sure that it matches my situa

I've been told in the past by my doctor and PT that it's better to have pain centralized in the back rather than radiating down the legs. For the last half year I have been unable to walk when I wake up in the morning. Just absolutely excruciating pain right in the center of my lower back. It would lessen after an hour or two and then I could walk again.

Here's the thing. Over the last few weeks, suddenly I have no pain in the morning (or very little). I can just get up out of bed and walk. The only thing that's concerning me is that I now have more of that sciatic pain instead. Just a kinda prickling/burning sensation in both my legs on the skin. More of an annoyance than actual pai

I've been dealing with this for a year now. Results of my MRI from august below. I herniated last June. I felt like I was getting better by September, and then slowly things just got worse until suddenly in December I couldn't stand up in the mornings without extreme pain. Before december, I would get up and hop in the shower, but since then I have to crawl on my hands and knees when I get up because it hurts too much. After about an hour of sitting in a chair, my discs dehydrate enough and then I can get up and walk. I went through 8 weeks of PT at the beginning of this year and have continued the exercise program on my own since then, and I'm not really seeing any improvement in the

You know those short code numbers that are six digits that automated systems use to send you notifications for appointment reminders and whatnot? For whatever reason, hangouts with fi has been trying to automatically respond to those as MMS, which always causes it to fail. To reply to these messages I have to manually create a new conversatation and send as SMS to the short code number. It then shows up as two different conversations under hangouts.

Why is it defaulting to MMS for short codes now?

All the stuff I find online says people get their heart burn between 30 and 60 minutes after eating. Mine is almost always about 4 hours after a meal.

I started these guys from seed and probably about 1 or 1.5 months ago they started getting some black/purple around the edges. Didn't seem to be harming them, so I was lazy and let it continue, but now it's getting pretty bad. As you can see in the one picture, it doesn't seem to affect the bottom of the leaves.

The tomatoes have been growing okay. Some blossom end rots, but I've gotten plenty of good fruit off of it in the last week or two.

I fertilize them once a week with that nature's care fertilizer. They're in 5 gallon containers with a wicking reservoir in the bottom (has drainage) that I fill every day along with soaking the soil lately to combat th

Yesterday this yellow stuff just appeared in the mulch of my basil plant and about 1/3 of the mulch in another basil plant (not spread out, just 1/3 chunk of the mulch). None of my other plants seem to have it. It didn't have any of this stuff on it Thursday. It just developed Friday.

Any ideas and what can be done?
