Has anyone had any success with the Stop Snore Ring ( http://stopsnorering.com )? Please, no worthless BS answers from those who only "think" it is or might be bogus. I would like answers only from those who have actually had experience with it (tried it before or knows someone who has tried it before). The Stop Snore Ring is quite inexpensive, so I would prefer to start there in finding a remedy, before looking to more expensive snoring aids or seeing my doctor.

like snoring, hogging the bed/pillows/blankets, or kicking/hitting them (on accident) in their sleep? (from dreaming). unfortunately, i do all of these and i feel bad for my boyfriend, but being that i’m asleep while i’m doing them, there’s not much i can do to stop it. so what solutions are there?

My 2 year old still wears a diaper to bed. The only thing is that EVERY single night, while in his sleep, he pulls his penis out of his diaper and soaks the whole bed. In the winter, we used to put zip up one piece jammies on him, until he learned to unzip it and pull it out, in his sleep. I know it sounds weird, but we have physically seen him do it while he is fast asleep snoring. We remedied it by getting button up jammies. It stopped for the last few months, but he is doing it again now.

The only thing is that it is summer now, and we don’t have central air conditioning. Thus making it impossible to put full pj’s on him comfortably at night. Previously we had just put pj shorts on him and it was working, now it doesn’t work at all!! He is soaking his bed, and I am forced to wash bedding every night!!! I

tried putting a towel underneath him, and he freaks out that he doesn’t want the towel under him, and if leave it there he pulls it out from underneath him, and throws in on the floor. The only thing I was left to think of was eliminating liquids after dinner, and going potty right before bed (we are just in the middle stages of potty training), but this still did not put an end to it, and I feel horrible telling him no when he is thirsty.

I cannot put full pjs on him, its too hot.
Help?

We both stay in a pretty small, cramped room. Her boyfriend sleeps over a few nights a week. Recently he began to snore really loudly! It is so loud that I wonder if the room next to us can hear it! I’m not exaggerating.

Even though she’s lying right next to him, she can sleep through it! But I cannot sleep at all! I’ve tried burying my head under the blankets and pillows, but I end up suffocating myself. One night it was so bad that I just got up and slept outside in the common room.

I’m a college student that needs rest so I can be energized for classes the next day. I tried addressing this problem with her, but she just sort of brushed it off, saying that I should talk to him. When she told him, he just said that he couldn’t do anything about it because he has tried remedies, but they don’t work.

Am I being selfish since I’m the only one it disturbs? I don’t want to hurt anyone’s feelings, help please!!
BTW, I know for sure he doesn’t drink. Haha.

Do you or does someone you know suffer from that horrible sleeping disorder called, snoring? Do they constantly deny that they do not snore? Is it preventing others from getting a good night’s sleep? Does it drive you so crazy to the point where you find yourself sleeping on the coach just to prevent it? If so, you are not the only person who is going crazy trying to get some sleep, but I think I may have the solution to help reduce your problem. It has also been proven to cause psychological and social problems. I’m sure you did not think snoring caused so many issues, did you?

What is snoring? Dictionary.com describes snoring as, “to breathe during sleep with hoarse or harsh sounds caused by the vibrating of the soft palate.” Another definition is, “to pass (time) in snoring or sleeping (usually followed by away or out), for example to snore the day away”. GB states snoring is known to cause side effects such as, “irritability, lack of focus, decreases libido and daytime sleepines

She even put some nose strips that open the air gateway but with no result…. is there any other remedy ??? i end up sleeping at 4 am !!! thansk @@@
To the first answerer: i slept on the couch last night but it was uncomfortable, also i have thought about ear plugs but i have a strange feeling like if an intruder enters the house or in case of an earthquake or something i will not be able to listen , lol !

We have space issues in our spare room which will be the new baby’s room when he/she is born. I have to keep my futon bed/couch in there because that is my escape for when my husband is snoring! I have found that they make mini cribs. I think this may be a great solution to our space problem but I was wondering if any of you have experience with these and your opinion on them. What are the dimension differences between a mini and a regular size crib. Thanks for your help!

a) An example of economic inefficiency is
negative externalities only
negative economic surplus
both positive externalities and negative externalities
positive economic surplus
positive externalities only

b) Dustin owns a very powerful stereo system. Dustin’s private property rights allow him to do all of the following except to
choose not to play it
give it to a friend
play whatever type of music he likes
sell it for a price he finds reasonable
open his windows at 3:00 am and turn the volume to its maximum

c) The view that firms emit pollution because they like to, or because they do not value the environment, is held by
everyone
those that reject proposals for a pollution tax or pollution permits
those who favour proposals for a pollution tax or pollution permits
businessmen
economists

d) Cigarettes are known to cause negative externalities. Which one of the following will help to reduce the consumption of cigarettes?
A special tax allowance for cigarette consumers
Compensation paid to the smokers who end up with lung cancer
A subsidy paid to cigarette producers
Compensation paid to cigarette producers for the articles written about their product
A special tax imposed on the production of cigarettes

e) It is always the case that
the optimal amount of any negative externality is greater than zero
negative externalities always require a legislative solution
pollution should be reduced as much as is technically feasible
the optimal amount of any negative externality is equal to zero
the marginal benefit of reduced pollution is nearly zero

f) Susan and Bonnie are considering living alone or being roommates for the next twelve months. A one bedroom, one bath apartment is 0 per month while a two bedroom, one bath apartment is 0. The one difficulty they have is that Bonnie snores very loudly. Susan estimates the cost of poor sleep due to Bonnie’s snoring is 0 per month. Bonnie estimates that the cost of eliminating her snoring is per month.

The least costly solution to the external cost is for
Bonnie to find a fellow snorer to live with
both to live alone
Bonnie to pay Susan for her discomfort
Susan to endure Bonnie’s snoring
Bonnie to fix her snoring

g) Paul owns a home on the top of a hill and enjoys an unobstructed view of a large wooded area. The view was a large factor in his decision to buy the house and Paul values his view at 00 per month. Sid purchases the undeveloped wooded area with plans to build a retail shopping centre. Sid expects to earn ,000 a month from the shopping centre, which is 00 more than his next best alternative.

The most effective way for Paul to ensure his view would be preserved would have been to
purchase the land and acquire the private property rights to the view
repeatedly testify before the city council about future traffic congestion from the shopping centre
offer to pay Sid not to develop the land
plead with Sid not to develop the land
lobby for environmental restrictions

h) All of the following are examples of externalities EXCEPT
heat from a factory that makes the neighbouring tomato patches more productive
acidic smoke that produces acid rain
a chemical plant that pollutes the air in your community
a defective part that causes an automobile to break down three months after purchase
carbon dioxide from energy generation that adds to the worldwide, long-term greenhouse effect

i) Environment Canada has proposed strict controls on the amount of sulphur contained in diesel fuel. The effect of the regulation is estimated to increase the equilibrium price of a litre of diesel fuel by 10 cents. Assuming the supply curve of diesel fuel has a positive slope and the demand curve has a negative slope, one can infer that
the external cost of diesel fuel is greater than 10 cents
the external cost of diesel is less than 10 cents
the external benefit of diesel is equal to 10 cents
the external benefit of diesel fuel is less than 10 cents
the external cost of diesel is equal to 10 cents

j) The inefficiency induced by all positional arms races is that
the increase in performance is negative
the rankings do not change
the increase in performance is small
spending on performance enhancements escalates without end
the rankings change too much

THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
