Council house rents to rise?

The City of York Council has announced this morning that council house rents in the city are to rise by 6%. York has dozens of empty shops, dozens of closed down pubs, dozens of estate agencies closed, dozens of manufacturers closed down, garages galore with car showrooms closed and thousands of people now out of work and unlikely to find any - there aren't any jobs. Solicitors are also being laid off and managers and their staff from investment businesses. If the professionals can't get work what hope have those living in council rentals and just where are they going to be able to find this extra 6% right now? Our council has just awarded the councillors their second pay rise WITHIN 12 months and have a watertight gold plated pension scheme in place for them which we are all contributing to. Last week they announced rises in payments for on-street parking permits for outside your own house and increases in car park charges. Why don't they have the commercial nouse to understand that when times are hard people don't have any extra money and will therefore have to cut back on things like visiting the city and parking, currently i think it's something like �2.70 per hour and the park and ride facility is neither use nor ornament if you have large heavy shopping. Shouldn't they stop their own pay rise and call a halt to taxpayers contributions from our rates to their pensions before they inflict any more damage on the local economy?

Why keep plasmid in non-T7 RNA Polymerase strain?

With extended culture the expression level of plasmid genes in a T7 RNA polymerase-containing strain decreases. This has been found to be due to mutations on the bacterial chromosome decreasing the amount of T7 RNA polymerase produced, and thus decreasing protein yield. To get around this the plasmid can be preserved in more run-of-the-mill bacterial strains and re-transformed into a T7 RNA polymerase strain when more protein is needed.

Is it unusual for a 17 year old girl to be more attracted to shy, quiet boys?

There's nothing abnormal at all about that. I'm actually really into the shy type myself. I find them very mesmerizing and attractive. They have a mystique about them and I just can't stop thinking about them. It's weird because a lot of people I know aren't like that.

Is this a good deal for a credit card?

I had a firstusa card but they kept raising the minimum and the changed the interest from fixed to varialbe and I have great credit and have never had missed or late payments....try it for the 12 months but keep a close watch on your statements and the conditions of the card. As for rewards...most cards with rewards charge higher interest than those without so they are not good if you want to carry a balance.

Whats the deal with thumbs?

They are a way to express approval or disapproval of others' answers. You don't gain or lose points by giving or getting 'thumbs down'. Any answer you give a 'thumbs down' to becomes hidden to your view, but not to anyone else's, and you can opt to show it anyway. You don't gain any points by giving 'thumbs up' and only the answer chosen as 'best answer' gets one additional point for each 'thumbs up' received.

Looking 4 perfect eyeliner?

All the kinds of eyeliner i used were horrible. the ones that don't smudge aren't dark enough and lighten out as the day goes on. and the ones that i think are nice and dark like urban decay 24/7 zero. it smudges more then any makeup ive ever boughten. i have to run to the bathroom inbetween cles at school fix it a couple times a day. and one time i didn't and everyone thought i was crying. but what i loved about it was that it was so dark, and it went nicely on my waterline. but i have to constantly sharpen it about every 2 or 3 times I use it. and it doesn't last that long.

Kesha is more popular than Hilary Duff, because she gets more playtime on the radio than Hilary Duff. As to who's hotter, I think both of them are, and I bet they'd be even hotter if they one day were to pose for Playboy.

So i have a math/cooking question?

Fluid ounces are more than dry ounces so don't listen to the girl above you. You would have to weigh it. If you don't have a kitchen scale, see if you can tell how many ounces are in the bottle of the spices. If it has the ounces then try to divide the # of ounces by 1/2 for the 1/2 ounces you need. For instance if it is a 8 ounce bottle divided by 1/2 = 16 servings in the bottle try to measure out 1/16 of the bottle. I know its hard but you can eyeball it.

Aside from summer, does water conservation really matter in rainy climates like Seattle? How about on a well?

Sorry if I sound like an environmental idiot but I have an honest question. What difference does it make if I conserve water? I realize that there are cities where the water supply is quickly drying up, but I don't live near there. I live near rainy Seattle. Sure it makes sense in the summer and perhaps spring in cities that get their water from the mountain snow pack, but most of the year water is pleantiful. Yet discussions of the importance of water conservation don't seem to acknowledge climatic differences. I feel like the environmentalists are crying wolf by ignoring the issue. Can anybody direct me to a reliable answer?

But wait, no, I love everyone: Molly, Aurthur, McGonnagal, Filtch, Bellatrix, Moody, Lupin....

Do companies have to meet certain race ratios set by the U.S. government?

I was talking to my friend and he told me that the government places certain race ratios on companies that they have to meet. Like they have to have at least 1/2 as many black people employed as white people or something. At a company such as McDonald's for example. Is this true? I've never heard of it. Isn't affirmative action like that unconstitutional? Any explanation would be great. Even better if you can provide some sort of source. I'll come back and vote best answer. Thanks ahead of time for any help :)

How can I introduce myself to her?

Okay so I'm in New York until Monday. Today we went to the statue of loberty and Ellis Island, we took a subway there. Well a couple seats down from me I saw this French family. I heard the girl talking and looked up. She was about 15 or so, I'm 14. By coincedence perhaps we saw them at Ellis Island and again at Urban Outfitters. I'll probably see her again and I want to introduce myself. How can I do that, and is it worth it?

Could I sue for slander?

A year ago, my husband and I hit a rough patch, a few outside people came to my husband and his parents and claimed that I had cheated on him and that his son that I was pregnant with was not his, we ended up almost getting a divorce, he was thrown in jail cause we got into a fight, and in the midst of me being a witness/victim for his crimes, I had to show up to court numerous times to testify, I actually had to schedule an induction for my son the earliest possible so I could testify 3 days in a row which we're scheduled on my actual due date, my son almost died cause of the stress the induction put on him, just cause I had show up to those court dates. All of this because two people got together and purposely tried to sabotage our marriage, this cost us over 65k in attorneys, fees, etc. My son was genetically tested, proven to be his son, and I never cheated at all. What could possibly be done about this?

What do you think went on during Rupert Murdoch discussion with Milly Dowler's family?

Clearly Murdoch apologized and the talk was of improving standards of journalism - which indicates culpability of his organization. Would there have been a monetary offer to avoid prosecution and the ociated negative publicity? We aren't hearing about them wanting to take this further or even make a statement condemning the actions of the company and its employees - just an encouragement to do better, do you think they would just accept an apology and a promise and do you think this influenced the tone of their reply; especially after hiring an expensive lawyer to represent themselves?

Just found out that Deuce McAllister is out for the season and looking at my RB depth, in which I have left is LT, Fred Taylor, and Sammy Morris.

I need help finding student loans for my first year in college!?

Many of the lenders I have been reading about require that the student have their parent co-sign the loan. Also, these same lenders do credit checks on the co-signer. Since I don't have any credit myself, I would have to have my mom co-sign, but she has horrible credit. Are there loans out there that allow a person with no credit to take out a loan? Are there loans that don't do credit checks?

Who would win this 6-man 100 meter relay?

Probably Bush or Fitzgerald over long distances like the 100 meter. All these guys are built for short-burst sprints, but I think Bush being the fastest out of all of them would have enough of an advantage to win, or else Fitzgerald, with his long stride would win because he wouldn't slow down as much as the other guys.

I dated a 15 year old?

As an adult, yes there are laws against such, but if teenagers are together in school and having a relationship, I find this a very gray area, and not one that should be of concern. The line does have to be drawn somewhere, and is in the law. However, you are both school age, and in my opinion, you are not a "pedophile". There is a clear difference between a true pedophile (typically a creepy old man) and a 15 year old and 18 year old. You are growing up and have moved on. Stop worrying.

A Song For Your Ears (Effect = Space edition)?

You know I have this record and for some reason I just never get around to REALLY listening to it. It seems like I hear a song pop up randomly and I end up really enjoying it, I've just sort of had it on in the background and I've enjoyed it in that sort of a way, but then I sit down to listen to it and I just never seem to be in the mood to continue it or to pay much attention. Totally inexplicable. I loved that song though. Really, really good one. It's a good reminder that I'm just going to have to listen to the record.

Some girlfriend advice seriously needed?

This may not be the best place to look for advice in my relationship, but Im not sure where to go with this. Also, some non-biased opinions would be greatly appreciated. So heres the situation: Me and my girl have been together two months official, three or four physically active and all of this year going on dates. Ive had feelings for her since around last October or so, and she makes me feel like no one else has; good and bad. When its going good, its incredible. I feel like no one can get me down. But at the same time, we go weeks without being close. I havent seen her in over a week now, not for any reason other than she just hasnt wanted to see me. WeMve exchanged maybe five texts in the past few days at most, and shes cancelled on me and lied about why... We've gone through this before, and the second I mention it to her she freaks and says nothings wrong. Then it goes from great back to this again. So what the **** is going on? If youve ever dealt with something similar please help? thanks<3

Is this a valid address? selling on ebay?

Best way to find out if any address is real, enter it on Google Maps, and look at the satellite view/street view imagery to see what it looks like. I often do this to ensure my items are going to a persons house and not some random location.

Is this a healthy way to lose weight?

Your workouts and strength training are going to require protein. If you eat meats, perhaps you can add some grilled chicken . Nuts in moderation will also help. Be sure to watch for hidden carbohydrates if you eat large amounts of fruit. You may as well be drinking Coca Cola!

Falsely and unfairly accused of plagiarism?

I recently wrote a paper for my college lit cl, asking what is the american dream and how does it relate to the Great Gatsby. What an original paper idea.........anyways, I wasn't even sure how I wanted to define the American Dream, I havent spent time on this subject. So i did a little googling and after some research with just some blog-ish type sites and random places, I formulated my definition of the American Dream. Since this is a definition, turns out some website has a definition of it similiar to mine. They call it the "driving force" in the book, and in my opening of my paper, I call the American Dream the "driving force" as well. Now let me tell you this is 2 short little sentences in my opening paragraph, and I received an email without warning letting me know that i committed "academic fraud" and it was already reported to the boss of my TA. I have NEVER been accused of such a thing in my 13 years of schooling, and my writing skills is something I pride myself on and I plan to be a journalism major because I love to write. For my teacher to think I purposely was cheating my way out of developing a paper hurts me and I am deeply distraught by the accusation. I am in the Honor's program here and am on the Dean's list with a direct admission to the journalism school....why in God's name would I be the kind of student to cheat? I don't skip cl, and I'm always on time and do my work with integrity. Does anyone have any hints on how to handle this tricky situation? I stand by my paper and I fully developed it in my own words and thoughts, and I do not believe this is a case of plagiarism what so ever, and I don't know how to win this war!

How to stop missing my boyfriend?

That's rough.. after me and my ex went through a similiar scenario i'd get to where i missed here like CRAZY, and i couldn't even stand it after a while.

You can do just about anything, the key is to occupy your mind to an extent that you don't think about how much you miss him as much.

A month ago my 5 year old granddaughter sat down at her family piano and proceeded to play?

"Mary had a little lamb", by ear. A couple of days ago she heard "Ode to Joy" on television and preceeded to play it from beginning to end, again by ear. Any thoughts?

What are cute ways to ask a girl to be your girlfriend?

My boyfriend got a little bear and put it on my desk... The bear was holding a little bag and inside the bag was candy and a little not that said... Let me take you roller skating this weekend? It was the cutest thing ever!! All my friends thought so too :)

If your step cousin lays with you and you fall asleep and wake up and he is snuggling you what does it mean? ?

Are Warmblood x Friesian good at eventing?

Thoroughbred type Warmbloods are pretty good, the Frisians usually(but not always) don't have the body type and enough scope to compete at high level eventing. Warmbloods and frisians are known for jumping but in cross country, a phase of eventing, it's not just jumping, it's running. In the lower levels, you'll see all kind of breeds ranging from cob type horses to grade cross horses to the most elite sport horses. It's all a mix at that level, and I think she would make it fine in that. Also, because she isn't broke, you can't tell her full potential, she might be a crack, but might not. Also, did you get a conformation picture? That picture doesn't tell you anything about her body type. Usually a good, motivated seller will include a few good conformation shots. If the owner didn't send you one, I'd start to ume she has something to hide like a major conformation flaw. She sounds decent enough to take a quick look, possibly bring your trainer if you have one for a second opinion. $6000, that's a pretty reasonable price. Her head is pretty though.

AP US HISTORY HELP!?!?!?!?

While the main reason for English colonization of the New World was to escape religious persecution, many Spanish settlers were sent in order to gain new territory for the mother country; however settlers were sent from both countries in order to open more trade routes.

I need help formulating a teeny revenge...?

I asked a boy to my school's Sadie Hawkins dance, and instead of rejecting me nicely, lied and said he had a sports game instead. How should I make him feel a teeny bad for this?

How much would a spray-tan session cost for someone who's VERY PALE and INEXPERIENCED at tanning?

In me experience spray tanning tends to have an even more orange effect that self tanner. But it's more even you don't have to worry about streaking in your hands or feet. And the price varies depending on where you are located. In my area the cheapest I found it $45 per session.

Gh: Need ur point of view!?

Seems to me that Jason and Sam belong together, and I cannot see where Jason and Elizabeth should be together. Can anyone imagine Jason going to Elizabeth (after the shootout and his having to kill a few men to protect his life and Sonny's) and telling her he feels bad about killing these men? Sam was perfect - supporting Jason - it was kill or be killed, he isn't a cold blooded killer thirsty for his next victim. Jason would never be able to admit this to Elizabeth, and if anyone can remember - he never could. There was always something more important than his time with Elizabeth (when they were quasi-together). The only time I liked Jason and Elizabeth together was back when Elizabeth was single, living in her art studio, where she and Jason could be alone together. It was a loving relationship that they had, but her lifestyle just doesn't fit in with Jason's. That is my take on Jason's love life. Sam actually shares Jason's life where Elizabeth could only share his bed and that was only if he had time for her! That isn't a relationship people!

Will this motherbord run a quad core processor and can i put 2 internal H-Drives?

Yes, you should be able to use that processor perfectly and also use up to 4 SATA hard drives with that motherboard. I added as source the list of CPUs the motherboard supports... There you can see which one is better for your system, but the one you choose should work.

What celebrity do you wish that didn't fade?

I wish Jojo didn't fade and I used to obsessed with Hilary Duff. I had it VERY bad. I wanted a shirt just because it was from her and the tag had a picture of her on it. Now I think she's OK.

So the Police may use water cannons aginst the student protesters ,why not?

If they start using water cannons then things will get much much worse. People have a right to protest and that's what the students did, it wasn't a riot. At any protest you will get a certain element that attend with the sole purpose of causing trouble, but the vast majority of those that attended protested peacefully and shouldn't be bracketed with the others. The police also need to learn from their mistakes, the kettling and riding horses into a crowd that was mainly peaceful and had youngsters amongst it. It must have been evident some some people on the march would try to get into parliament square, so they should have put up proper barricades if they wanted to stop them.

Fellow christians help me wih this?

Barack Obama is not an Anti-Christ, and any Christians that think that are conservative Right-Wing Nut Jobs that call him a terrorist, and are racist bigots.

What article in the constitution created the supreme court?

I suspect this is a homework ignment. The purpose of it wasn't so much to learn this little gem of information than it was for you to become more familiar with the Constitution in general. You could consider this your patriotic contribution to your country. People have given their lives for the Constitution. You are not being asked to do nearly as much.

Anyone know any other clical music that is similar to Moonlight Sonata?

I'm a big fan of clical music, but I really don't know much and don't really know where to look or how to find the songs I'm wanting. Moonlight Sonata and Beethoven's 5th are two of my favorites. I really enjoy the darker, more somber clical music.

So are the Broncos who we thought they were?

I thought the Broncos were a team that blew a big division lead last year, they managed to do it this year also, just not so late in the season, this gives them time to turn it around they need to start the turn around this week against a New York Giants team who is 1-4 in the last 5 weeks same as the Broncs.

Should I finally start "dating"?

Well I am 15 years old.. never had a boyfriend, or kissed. The farthest thing I've done is snuggle and hold hands. My plan is to wait till I find the perfect guy. I think the best way to go is to fall in love with your best friend. But ugh.. I don't know crap about relationships. And also I just hate the thought of dating, I just want one man that's it... forever. And believe me it's hard resisting a relationship. I am just afraid that when the time comes I'll be to inexperienced, but then again I just don't want to get hurt. Am I going to slow?

Does he like me?

there's this guy and he's in my homeroom, most of my cles, and has a locker right next to mine. We talk a lot and before he never really called me by my name, but now he always says my name when he's talking to me. He used to sit like all the way across the room but he recently moved his seat to behind me. Maybe a week ago, he was trying to look me in the eyes when he was talking to me but I was too shy to look back. I don't really know if I like him or not but yea...anyawy...does he like me?

What is your opinion on this writing?

The writing style is pretty good, but I'm not sure I'm interested enough to continue reading. Many of the sentences use the same basic sentence structure. It sounds like it's at the beginning of a book or in the middle of the book, starting with another character's perspective.

Seating tickets or GA tickets?

Going to see the Foo Fighters in October with my parents (I'm only 14...) and I have to decide whether I should get seating tickets or GA tickets. I might get seated tickets because I'm short and I won't be able to see them if I do get floor tickets and I'm claustrophobic. But I want GA tickets so I can see the band easier. I might get to the concert around 5:30 pm and it starts at 7pm. I think I might have to get seated tickets but are GA tickets as bad as everyone says it is?

Is it better to leave a motor running 24/7 or shut it off?

These are large HVAC motors, and when they are turned on and off repeatedly ie fire alarms, and the energy MANANGEMENT, they fail, and what ever money you've saved, is out the window not to mention the carbon footprint for making a new motor, and melting down the old motor

True or myth about coca- cola bottle patent?

i have heard that they have forgotten to patent coca- cola bottle so some guys searched through patent list and found out that there is no coca- cola bottle in that list. later on they went to int patent board and tell them that they want to have right to it (bottle). when they got the stamp, and when it was "proven" that they have right to coca- cola bottle, they went to coca- cola executives and tell them that either they (coca- cola executives) cant use their trademarked patent or to give them cash. so coca- cola gave tham a lot of money cuz bottle was known for many years and they couldnt afford it to replace it...

Which trade should I do? 10 points for best answer!?

I would do them both the first one would be a rip off for the guy u would be trading with and the second one is also good you get an average short stop for a short stop who is struggeling and a rookie pitcher for either Roy Halladay who leads the leuge in wins or Johan Santana who is always good. I would take Holladay because santana does not get run support so he would not get points for the win

Hows my fantasy football team, little differant?

I'd say you have a very good team considering you took 3 Wr's in a row. You'v got an excellent QB with D.mcnabb. Very solid Wr's with Fitz, cal johnson and TO. Great Te with greg olson, cutler will use him often. Jets D now has rex ryan, the former ravens D cordinater. You actually didn't do that bad with RB's though. T. Jones and K. smith are all right, solid points every week. Very good

Should I be upset? Would you be?

I have been dating someone for about a month now, and as far as I know, things are going great, until the other day when my friend informed me that he is on a dating site, and still checking his profile every day. In all fairness he has not asked me to be his girlfriend but he gets upset if he thinks I am talking to other guys. I dont know whether to be mad or cry! What would you do???

What is this phenomenon called?

I was just wondering...as I was walking home one day (at night) I noticed 2 rings of "rainbows" circling the moon. It was pretty interesting...but it seems like it's just the reflection of the light or something...is there a name for this phenomenon? they were reallly faint rainbows, but you could still see them in the dark....the moon was really bright/illuminated

I'm doing the Nazis in history at the moment, and I really enjoy it. Is this wrong?

You need a larger perspective. Hitler did get the trains running on time and gave people a symbol to rally around, but look how he did it and at what cost. First, he exploited the German people at a vulnerable time following the first world war. They were poor and disillusioned and Hitler exploited this like the master manipulator he was. Second, he accomplished the state you described by eliminating those who disagreed with him. And by eliminating I mean stripping of their rights, property, dignity, and very lives. NOT A GOOD THING. Finally, his view on national pride is an idea of the past. The challenge of the twenty-first century is not to rally behind invisible national lines, but to come together and work together to help fix the planet, explore space, and solve the problems of hunger and disease. Nazism will not help with this. Read it, study it, learn from it, but don't get sucked into it. It's a legacy of greed, narrow mindedness, and blood.

How do I tell my adult siblings I don't want to exchange presents for Christmas this year?

I am not a grinch, but I really can't figure out what my siblings would enjoy when we seldom see each other and all have different life styles. East coast, west coast, third coast. We range from 5 star restaurant types to organic gardeners. China, silver, and crystal stemware to a hamburger in front of the TV. No plastics, watch for lead paint. "Silk and cashmere are fine!" and are not in MY budget. Nothing fattening. God forbid if the alcoholics get alcohol.. This one likes nick knacks and another one hates to dust. It is a nightmare.

Would anyone know from experienc what is best rout to take from Indianapolis to San Francisco?

The one time I went from SF to Indy we drove 80 through Vail, Denver, and Kansas. I believe that would be I70 to I80 with a short stint on I15. It was an easy route and very scenic through the Rockies which is always best given how much flat land you'll be staring at. I couldn't speak much about any other route though.

Did Rudy jumping on Mitt about the "Illegal" deal look like a cat fight to you?

Not as bad as Hillary jumping on Obama about a paper he wrote in Kindergarten saying he wanted to be president.

Do you think it is unconstitutional....?

Unconstitutional? Please read the Constitution again. It says nothing, whatsoever, about the rights of students not to be offended by messages they perceive to be present in calendars. Now, if the school told you you HAD to pray or worship in a certain way, well that certainly would be unconstitutional. I also hope that you were mature enough to sign your name to the letter. Peace.

I'm quite annoyed at this soccer coach at my middle school?

Recently I moved from England to the United States and went to Soccer tryouts for the Middle School team and the head coach was tricking kids of his list and he got to me and coz I'm European, he went "lucky us, got some European talent this year" and although it is a complement and he propobaly didn't mean it offensively It's quite annoyed me becuase he basicly umed I was good at soccer because I was European which is quite steroytypical views, I mean i am good at soccer but not because I'm European or English but because I have been playing since I was 2 and have had been coached by ex proffesional players at English Club youth academies (mainly Leeds, Hull and Man City). It's not genetic, and it annoys me that people would ume I was good at soccer because I was European not becuase I try hard and practise and had good coaching. Anyway the coach seams like a nice guy just wish Americans would think about why Europeans are in general (not always though) better at soccer before dismissing it as in the genes Europeans have or Europeans are good because there european.

Why does marginal revenue curve slope downwards?

It has nothing to do with the law of diminishing return. In the freely competive market, marginal revenue curve is equal to price and demand, and parallel to the horizontal axis.The slope of the curve is not downwards. But in the imperfect markets, the slope of the marginal revenue curve will be downwards, and less than the demand curve. The answer is because to sell more unit, the producer has to lower its price.

Whats the best way to stop using methadone or detox Fromit the least painfull or least uncomfortable?

Ask whoever is giving you this. That's a counselor or RN or MD. There is a medical method that is quicker than just lowering your dose, but I believe it costs a lot of money, unless you have health insurance.

Yep, strange indeed. Actually, I'm also looking for Mac's words for his dead friend MJ, but can't find one. I saw him in the 30th Anniversary show of Michael, sitting beside Elizabeth Taylor... so I presumed that they were still friends before Michael died.

My daughter is quite active and loves her gal pals, could this mean she is a biual?

I'm concerned that my daughter might be a "". She plays for the Hackensak High Softball team, as well as, the basketball team. She is very athletic, but always seems to be spending time with her girl pals instead of the boys. The other day when I was doing some laundry, I found a note in one of her pocket cargo pants that said something like "i love my carpet muncher, Love Sam" (Sam is her best girl pal) They are always paling around together and my daughter always wants Sam to have a sleepover, I'm a little weary about her staying over, could my daughter be a "biual"? And what is a "carpet muncher"?

A few questions about a 3- 4 month olds night time sleep. Is this normal?

ok so my baby girl is not the biggest sleeper ever. She has always been a cat napper despite my efforts to get her to sleep longer. It does not seem to bother her during the day, she is pretty happy and content. But over the last month she has become extremely fussy at night time. I try and get her to bed at a good hour but no matter how hard I try she fights her bed time for a couple of hours. It seems that she is getting more and more difficult to get to sleep at nights. What she does is she feeds, then I put her down and she sleeps for a few minutes and then howls the house down. Its not just a tired little wimper either its full on screaming like she is in pain. It takes a long time to settle her, the only thing that works is to feed her again (she is feed). This cycle of feeding and putting her down and then having her go hysterical lasts hours. We have tried burping her and swaddling, pacifiers, white noise, lullaby music, rocking etc etc but we just can not change this behaviour. In the end she finally sleeps out of share exhaustion and then sleeps through until about 8 am, waking once or twice to feed at night (and then straight back to sleep). Im just curious if this behaviour is normal for a 3 month old? could it be colic even though I know shes probably too old to develop colic? do they get over this faze on their own? is there anything we can do that dosnt involve leaving her to cry it out (trust me if you heard the way she screams you wouldnt be able to just walk away and leave her like that its heart breaking). Any advice is really helpful. Thanks

Could this be my month? what do u think? (asked earlier but not many answers)?

What you're experiencing could definitely be a sign of pregnancy. You could have had implantation bleeding at first and then just normal first trimester spotting. I had the same thing with my first pregnancy. And the itchy could also be a sign. Hormones are a crazy thing and they can affect your body in crazy ways! A surge in hormones can definitely cause constipation as well. Good luck with your test tomorrow.... hoping for your BFP!

Why is it "an historic day"?

An old sock, an unenviable position. These two use "an" because the next word begins with a vowel, but historic does not begin with a vowel. So, why is "an" used by the media (written and spoken) before historic? i.e. "its AN historic day in Northern Ireland"

What do I do? Is this a serious problem?

Is Perfect Pitch a Myth?

"Perfect pitch" is better called "absolute pitch". It is a type of musical memory, where you memorise the pitch at which things are normally played. It can be learned by practice, but is not a very useful technique. Much more important is a good sense of relative pitch, which is essential for singing in tune and for playing in almost all instruments except the keyboard instruments.

I am looking for good ideas on how to get rid of the "binky" or pacifier and?

I used to work at a daycare taking care of two year olds. Pacifiers are a very tricky subject! My co-worker told me about what she did with her sons pacifier and i thought it was adorable, it's something i want to do when i have my children. Take your daughter to a Build-A-Bear store. Let her stuff her pacifier into the stuffed animal. It will be sewn up and she can feel her paci in the stuffed animal whenever she misses it, plus its a great keepsake for when she's older.

Anyway my point is that, I've signed up for 2 years of college (dual-enrollement) and I'm about to take the ACT, while I was signing up they asked what I wanted to major In, everyone answered accept for me!

Does anyone else notice this false dichotomy?

Does anyone else notice that whenver someone tries to have a middle ground on the issue of ity gay advocates refuse to acknowledge that middle ground? Whenever someone says that they "hate the sin, but love the sinner," that they love gays, but object to the act of gay , or that they're uncomfortable with gay PDA, people say that they're covering up their bigotry, instead of recognizing those attitudes as middle ground. Allow me to summarize what these people are saying. "Either you are with us or against us. Either you're with us or you're with the KKK and the people who killed Matthew Shepherd. Either you support and legitimize ual behavior or you support injustice and bigotry." Well, there's a fallacy in that twisted kind of reasoning. Yeah, it's called FALSE DICHOTOMY! Imagine if unwed mothers started to demand acceptance, endorsement, and legitimization for their lifestyle, demanded that fornication and having children out of wedlock be considered moral, normal, and acceptable, and started labeling those who don't agree with unwed motherhood as "bigots." Imagine if unwed mothers said, "Either you're with us or against us. Either you're with us or you're with the Islamic fundamentalists who would stone unwed mothers to death if they had their way. Either you support the legitimization of fornication or you support the persecution of fornicators in the Middle East." That would be absurd, wouldn't it? Society needs to stop thinking in terms of illogical, fallacious, intellectually lazy, false dichotomies and use the power of discernment to yze the complexities of this issue and determine which attitudes are bigoted, which are not, and which are somewhere in between. Please, stop with the "Either you are with us or against us" garbage because it wasn't valid when George Bush said it and it's certainly not valid when PC liberals say it.

Christianity and India ?

I was regarding Roman History and I was surprised how Christianity took over the nation and undermined Rome. Romans ware fighting for their survival at that time well in the end it was not successful. Considering the number of conversion in India, will Hindus and Muslims loose their place. I don’t know but it is a scary thought. What do you think?

Let's try this one more time, I typed slower for all you libs, maybe you can understand the question this time?

Is skipping a good exercise, & what kind of routine should i do, like how long to spend on it?

Skipping is definitely great exercise. I would recommend skipping at high-intensity intervals. Here's an article all about interval training and why it's the best way to lose weight. The article mentions running, but just do the same thing with skipping and it will be a fantastic workout! a href="http://www.fitandfabliving.com/index.php/cardio/2740-the-best-cardio-workout-ever.html." rel="nofollow"http://www.fitandfabliving.com/index.php…/a Also, try out some of these healthy and delicious recipes: a href="http://www.fitandfabliving.com/index.php/healthyrecipesmenu.html" rel="nofollow"http://www.fitandfabliving.com/index.php…/a

How many of you think the affirmative action is a good idea?

I was watching the news and noticed the story on those fire fighters...There was 15 positions for promotion and 14 Caucasians and one hispanic scored the highest but denied promotion because the city thought it may appear wrong. Is that not reverse racism because the are white they can't have the job not to mention they scored higher. Hard work and dedication means nothing anymore. Do hispanic people get affirmative action? In my eyes this the worst thing I have ever heard of in my life competency, intelligence and dedication is replaced with someone who may not even be qualified. What a shame .......WORK HARDER

Best wayy to lose weight fast?

ok im going to be straight forward all dieting and supplement pills are bullshit. you need to work out. Want abbs? do 500 situps a day and eat the correct foods such as vegtibles and milk. the body does not need that much meat so try to stick to healthy fats like organic things and not procceced sugar crap. another good way to lose weight it to run distance even if your not fast because it will give u supermodel legs guarented haha. this will only work if you focus your mind on being thinner and make a strong dedication. patience is a big part of it because it wont happen over night. and btw you should stay around 110 because its not healthy to be under 100 unless its natural

Women with PCOS! Does any else have this problem?

I am a very overweight 21 year old female with PCOS. I have steadily gained over 65 pounds in the last 3 years and there is nothing on the face of this earth that I can do to lose it. The doctor said that I have Insulin Resistance so I cut out all sugar and took Metformin and I still did not lose weight. I also exersized, ate several small meals each day, took appetite suppressants, counted calories, carbs, and did weight watchers. I still haven't lost 1 pound! What other options are there for me? I have been to 7 doctors and they all are out of options. Is any else in my situation? Were you ever able to lose weight? What else can I do to lose?

Are the Golden State Warriors for real?

I'm a long suffering Warriors fan and I think this team can be a 6th or 7th seed in the playoffs. They are finally rebounding and playing defense for the first time in years and they beat Utah at home last friday when Lebron & the Heat and Dwight Howard and the Magic couldn't do it. Stephen Curry and Monta Ellis are playing great together after lots of skepticism about that and they are healthy for the first time in 3 years.

Help with peom?(“Holy Sonnet XIV" by John Donne)?

"Batter my heart, three-person'd God, for you As yet but knock, breathe, shine, and seek to mend; That I may rise and stand, o'erthrow me, and bend Your force to break, blow, burn, and make me new.

"Breathe" and "blow"? "Shine" and "burn"

What are some good bands that have songs that allude to books/movies/people in history?

Who thinks Shelton Benjamin should fight Taker at wrestlemania?

first of all, not that I am being racist (I am not even black), but I noticed that in general black athletes, including wrestlers seem to be better in general. They just sometimes seem to be less social, which is the way it should be in my opinion. After all the show was meant to be about wrestling (which is how it was originally by the way), not about all these socializing storylines and crap. With that said, Shelton Benjamin is in my opinion the best actual wrestler in the WWE right now, and based on his skills I think it would be absolutely incredible to see him face Taker at mania. To top it off, imagine if Shelton BEAT Taker. This would most certainly get him the recognition he deserves for the incredibly gifted athlete that he is. But of course Vince won't ever book the match because evidently all he cares about is money and what he thinks will probably sell vesus what would make for the best type of match to watch (even though I can't see any reason why the match wouldn't sell). I'll tell ya what, I would have paid to see Shelton face Taker. I certainly will pay to see HBK do it again. Don't know about you.

What do you think of the first part of this story?

Sounds like a cool start. If you really are 12 years old, then I really can't fault you too much on this, but: your sentences are pretty choppy. You might want to try to lengthen them out with some good descriptive language. You know, adjectives and stuff :) But, yeah, good start.

Way to many atheists around!!?

Although many people justt claim to be christian, they dont really care or believe in a car, lets say a tipical question i will ask my firend is like " hey man, u goin to church on sunday, and theyll say no typically, and ill say "then when do u go" and theyll reply with on christmas. Many rather watch a game at home rather than going. Many people are starting to get to modernized and are starting to lose faith which is becoming an increasing factorr~

I need help finding a parent, but I'm NOT adopted so Im having trouble getting help?

Hi there I'm almost in exactly the same situation, I'm 21 and i only have a name for my dad, no address, no idea of where he is now, and unfortunately my mum died when i was nine so there is no way of finding out anymore info, i was in care my entire childhood. I understand totally how frustrating it must be for yourself and i bet your really annoyed with your mum for not having more info about your dad. But what you've got to remember is he could try and find you, your 18, he's got your mum's name and your name and he knows where your mum was living when you were conceived. So really you have to ask yourself if he's really worth looking for. He's had 18years to look for you and not contacted you. You've been looking since you've been old enough. Another factor i would take into consideration is that he may have a new family and just might not be int rested and that could really mess you up. My advice would be if your happy as you are in your family life and social life, leave well alone of looking for your dad. If he's a good man he'll hunt you down himself one day.

What do you think about Bush stating that he approved waterboarding? And Pelosi knew it was being used?

I approve of waterboarding as well. As for Pelosi, well, it's not terribly shocking to me that she distorted her knowledge of it. That woman would distort her preference of Pizza Hut over Dominos if she found out most of her constituents prefer Dominos.

What happened to a child being born being a gift?

i am with you~~~ Adoption is a real option (to the one who said it was "peachy".)...we have adopted 3 children and they are ours as much as the ones i have birth to, abortion is not ok, i dont see why people think its the thing to do........i really try to understand others and i empathize with women who were d etc (however they do give the morning after pill in the er to victims just in case~ so abortion really should not have to be thought of) I think that you are human and as we all have thought at one time or another in pregnancy "can i really do this?" and the answer is yes and no, we are gonna have rough days and challenges BUT your babies make it all so worth it. And as an end not~ I have more respect than can be put in words for those who trully realize they cant give there babies the life they deserve and they make sure someone who will love them gets to have that joy, believe me, every child is a blessing and a gift even before there little heartbeat is heard~~ GOD BLESS~~~

Fantasy Baseball: What should I do with my lineup?

My boyfriend has syphilis?

My boyfriend just told me he has syphilis. And now I'm at risk. I thought how was that possible? He told me I was the only person he had with this year. It's when I pressed on it that he told me he had with another guy. I thought we were monogamous... he lied to me all these time. Now I'm worried about contracting other STDs from him as well, like HIV. But there's a 3 month window period so I don't know for sure. He asked me if we can start a fresh. I don't know what to do. He lied and he cheated. But I grew used to him. Syphilis is curable so I'm not worrying too much about that. The bigger question is HIV. What if we both got it? Should I stick with him then? It's a heartache because I invested so much time with him. I got used to him. I need some advise. Please help.

Affirmative Action bake sale, your thoughts?

Yes. The discussion needs to be had. The issue of what actually constitutes equal opportunity is very touchy, and the answer is still very up in the air. The fact that administrators shut it down indicates they don't completely believe that affirmative action equals equal opportunity.

Why, as an agnostic, does the anti-Catholicism from fundies drive me so crazy?

"Theories"...?

Creationism doesn't qualify al all in any way as a theory in the scientific sense. It is more like an invalidated, disproven hypothesis (in the scientific sense). That is why it is highly inappropriate to teach any form of creationism in a science cl. Intelligent Design is just the latest fad version of creationism that will fall by the wayside in the popular press very soon, just like "creation science" did.

i would like to find out the rights that my grandparents have with the insurance..Basically my grandfather claims that the insurance company was dropped (after 5-6 years) for him not having good health on a 150,000 policy and my grandmother was dropped for refusing to take a physical but she did not sign a waiver. Should we arrange for a lawyer..do they have rights

Having Strange Dreams?

For the better part of a year--Ive been having strange dreams---they are all senseless with nothing to do with my life. This happens two or three times a night on a regular basis. As a result I seldom get more then an hour or two of sleep at a time and don't feel well rested. Nothing happened in my life that I can tie this into-- I don't use Drugs and only drink coffee in the morning---the same thing happened when I was on vacation--I tried a few different sleeping pills but then I keep waking up with a dry mouth. Has any gone through this ? what can cause this and how can it be corrected ?

Is Brett Favre going to use his cane this Sunday against the Cowboys?

Ole Boy doesn't need a cane there rainbow boy. He's one of the best QB's in the NFL this year and is the MOST winningest QB in NFL history. It's funny how an old man kicks these little boys s still. I think he may send the Boys packing this weekend and if the Vikings can play more consistently through out the playoffs they can be a Super Bowl winning team. Favre is great and anyone who say's he isn't is either delusional or a hater. Or just gay.

Who saw Die Hard?

Movie was fast moving and entertaining, lots of action...What ruined it for me was: The Villan is standing behind Bruce Willis, one arm around his throat, the other hand with a gun to his head. He grabs the gun hand and shoots himself in the chest, the bullet goes through him and kills the bad guy. Next scene his arm is in a sling...GIVE ME A BREAK"

I need some ideas for a literary club in high school to do. help?

Best place to put flyers is inside the restroom stalls. I guarantee this will increase awareness. Do you guys pay attention to the mood during the readings and movie nights? Like with candles and little snacks and tea/hot chocolate, etc. I think if what you need is promotion, maybe include spoken words - Find students who might be into rap. Music is really appealing to people and tend to bring people together. It has power to get everyone excited too. Maybe you can also think of ways to reward usual participants when they bring a friend with them? I'm just spitting out ideas... You guys have awesome ideas though!

Korean social clash or just a bad experience?

Okay, in May of this year I flew to Korea to meet a penpal/friend who I've known for a little over a year on the internet through myspace and penpal websites where we became very good friends. Her and her parent's invited me to stay at their apartment for 2 weeks. I get there and everything's great. We went sight seeing, go on shopping trips, night clubs and went to some temples in Changwon and Busan. We where laughing, smiling and having a good time. But when we went to Seoul she completely changed. She started to ignore me and be really mean towards me. For example I ran out of actual hard cash and I had to pay her for the train tickets she booked in advance. When I tell her she rolls her eyes and says you should of known how much cash before you came! I'm thinking in my mind woah! geez! We get to the atm that takes international credit cards and it's all in Korean. I said to her can you help me? She rolled her eyes again and said can't you just do it! I got my cash and as I was trying to put it in my money belt she started walking out of the bank and I'm like can you please wait for me? She rolls her eyes again. Then in the subway in Seoul it's packed with people and I'm surrounded by a whole bunch of old ladies and at one of the stops walks off without a word and the doors closed and she's gone! I get off at the next stop and wait there. Hoping she'll get on the next train and meet me there. She does and I tell her can u please talk to me so we don't get lost? Then at the last palace we go to in Seoul she finally snaps at me. Saying "There's a sign in English! Read it! I'm not your guide!". I was totally caught off guard at that point coz I thought everything was going so well. Then I asked her trying not to cry why are you treating me like this! Then she says i don't understand how difficult it is for her to speak English. Even though her English is super good. Then she said I should of known what to do (like the atm, using a Korean washing machine at the hostel we stayed at) before coming here! I'm like I never even been to Korea before! How can you expect me to know anything in 2 weeks without asking for help! Then she gives me the story about how hard it was for her in America as an exchange student in America for a year and how she had to do everything by herself. I said to her "I just asked you how do you do it!" I didn't ask her to actually do it for me! At that point I didn't want her to runaway from me in Seoul so I just said "Let's just go". Then we got back to Changwon that day. I was so happy to see her parents because they're super nice. Then the next day I decided to just explore Changwon myself. Which was pretty cool because I met a doctor at the mcdonalds who was surprised to see a foreigner. I told him about my trip and what at had happened. He gave me some pretty good advice. Then the next day my penpal's former english tutor wanted to introduce me to his night cl of high school girls. Which was pretty fun. It was a great change from being around my penpal. That night though I couldn't take anymore of it though and I told her mother what had happened. My penpal refused to translate for me though. So they had a english dictornary and I got the point across to her mother. Her mother got super mad at her. My penpal was telling me how hard it was having to pay for herself at the places we went. I told her if you didn't wanna go to a certain place we didnt have to. (she planned all the places we went to) Out of shock they told me I have to go to a hotel. Her mother felt super bad for me and kept telling me sorry. I gave them the gifts I brought for the family at that point. I was gonna give it to them on my last day. This made the mother feel even worse. I kept telling her it's ok. I couldn't keep the gifts coz of the weight in my luggage. Then the english tutor who i met earlier showed up. I think the mother had called him. He translated everything I had to say to her mother. Telling everything that had happened. So the mother helped me pack my suitcases and we went to this fancy hotel. I felt super bad there because she was gonna pay for me to stay in this nice hotel. I offered her some money for it but she refused and said via the tutor "sorry, for my inmature daughter. " So I stayed there the rest of my trip (3 nights) I did a little bit more exploring of Changwon. Then the English tutor and my penpal's mother came to pick me up. Then they dropped me off at Gimhae Airport I told the mom thanks for everything you were very nice to me shook her hand and I made my journey back to Toronto, Canada and then back to Buffalo, NY. I was still upset when I got home cause I lost a good friend. Then just today I looked her up on a penpal website and she changed it talking about visiting penpals and said "Watch out for selfish people!". So Koreans what do you think of all this? Was it just one bad experience? or are many Korean girls like this? Most of the Koreans I met were very nice and friendl

Is it okay to let my puppy sleep with me?

I have an eight week old toy poodle puppy. As soon as I got him home he has been using puppy pads and only had one accident because I had him in another room. But if there is a puppy pad he uses it or tries to find it. I have been trying to put him in his crate at night but he gets extremely upset and starts to tear up anything he can and he thrashes around in the crate and he cries really loud all night (I mean all night). I tried putting him in the bed with me and he curled up next to my stomach and he slept there all night without waking up. I know a lot of people say this isn't good but I am afraid he will hurt himself in his crate. He craves to be with me and loves to sit on my lap and follow me around the house. He gets very upset when he is not next to me. I am trying to teach him to go in his crate for a few hours during the day which he is doing okay with. He cries a little but soon quiets down. But at night he just wants to snuggle up with me because he feels safe and warm. If I make sure I reinforce that I am the pack leader and I work really hard on obedience training is it okay to let him sleep with me? I don't mind because he is warm and cuddly I don't roll so I won't hurt him.

Complicated Long story who should I be with?

am currently seeing my bf paul, for almost 2 years, he is great,loving, but i dont feel the connection like I do with billy. Me ansd billy met a 5 years ago, he was so sweeet to me, he took care of me after an accident but then he went away to school and we never hooked up.. we stayed close freidns i had feelings but started seeing my ex bf, and billy was seeing a girl from school. so billy and i got into an arguement didnt talk for months, and had a great heart to heart we really hit it off that nite, i think that he was going to kiss me but no. I told him me and bf were on break but he diddnt make move, just called the next day, wanting to hang out like friends w. when that nite we were so into each other. anyway me and ex got back together, and billy one night acted like such a jerk accusing me of using him, talking bad about my friends, being such an ***..he would apologize and do it again and again.....we didnt talk for while after that. it was so hard because he went away to school and i didnt want to get too close So I broke up with my bf, and soon he sent me flowers apologizing for everything telling me hes had feelings, I sent him a message thanking him and saying we will talk very soon and invited him to my bday party, were he pulled the same exact crap again, some my friends say he was controlling and just wanted power, others said he was sweet and protective.. I dont know he tried apologizing again, but then didnt try talking to me again until i started seeing paul...and it was too late, I thought about him a lot, i even blocked his sn on aim and still have his friend request on facebook in my inbox...he tried messaging every few months, but I dont know what to say, I really love billy more than any other guy but we have so much issues, i dont think things could work but i cant stop thinking of him, and i feel so bad because im with paul now what should I do? billy is so gorgeous and sweet, but he has such a mean side but its only wehen it comes to my friends and protecting me...me and billy havent really talked in 2 years but i still think of him and we still have weirdness between us over what happened, should we be together? me and billy have such a connection everyone in the room notices, but me and paul all have same friends, and hes not jealous and overprotective and doesnt have the temper. billy got a different sn and messaged me the other day, trying to talk and told me just tell me to screw off if you dont want to talk, but i didnt know what to say to him, i hate living like this...what should i do girls? and why would billy only try talking to me online hes seen me out since many times and just said hello and act like he doesnt know me and avoided talking to me except one time recently. I heard he was so upset about me blocking him but it was only so i didnt have to think of him...

What do you think of this - 44 years old men, attracted to teenage girls, or girls in their early 20's ?Sick ?

Hi everyone, I have this strange experience which provoked this strange question to ask.There is this guy I know, he is 40 something years old.After he reached 40 he turned obsess with all kind of young girls in their mid teen years up to their early 20's.He goes always to all those model competitions for new comer "models" to all kind of "Miss blah-blah" contests and etc.Then he spends most of his time in bars and restaurants where young " models" might be met.But the truth is that he can be seen mostly with girls who are still in school and who believe can have glamourous life in showbiz...I used to like this person,but since few years I don't know what to think about all this?Is this sick , besides the cynical moment in it?Are we living in times when someone would say that is "how the younger generation is" therefor he isn't to be blamed for anything...Or does he have some serious problems, and is turning into pervert?Is he a pervert?Please share your opinion?

Is sweating alot supposed to be ok?

well, it is normal. You probably have overactive sweat glands. If you are in puberty, it is very common. A lot of people have this problem. My best friend has overactive sweat glands too. And when you sweat, you are cleaning out your pores, and cooling off.

To those who watched the copa america peru-venezuela game, no venezuelans to answer this question?

To be answered by anyone who watched the game in Copa America between Venezuela and Peru. This question is to anyone who watched the game, but no Venezuelans to answer this question please. I dont know much about Soccer i just support Peru because i was born there, but raised in miami. I want to know if in soccer scoring officials or federation officials can review the game, and maybe make a diffrent judgment/ result or outcome of a game, due to what clearly was a game that seemed to be set up against Peru? Can any sactions be made against the refs. Also, not to take anything away from the team that won, but at the same time let them have something they really didnt earn,I think what should be done in fairness to both teams is call the game a 0-0 draw, worst case would be finding a way to replay the game with diffrent refs, along with penalizing them by suspending them for the rest of the tournament. I mean they called things against us and didnt do so against them, they didnt award us with what clearly was a penalty kick, also they eject one of our main gains in a situation that at best should have been a non-call. Instead our guy gets ejected and from then on things fell apart. Why isnt soccer like Baseball for example, that if a questionable call is made and officials become aware of it they change it within 24 hours of it happening. Why doesnt soccer have this rule? Something has to be done for this to get fixed. Too Much Favoritism goes on in Soccer, in our first game against Uruguay we had 2 Refs from Venezuela, as far as im concerned, from what i know about the rules of tournaments like these refs within a group can be from any of the countries that are the group they are officiating. And in the first game for Peru and Uruguay there were 2 Venezuelens, and in this game Mexicans because they hate us. What is the best thing that can happen, what meausres can be taken in order to take charge of what clearly was a set up gam

Maden 09 Defense HELP!?

If you can't stop people with those players, trading for better personel will not make a huge difference. You want to start looking into increasing your pressure to force poor throws, or running a cover two to supply help over the top. These are very general improvements. If they are beating you under the middle, you are going to want to run a zone to keep linebackers in. If you are getting beat deep, you want a man press with cover two help. If you are getting beat to the sidelines, you want a flat zone with the corner. But, mixing up your calls and applying pressure will help. Good luck.

Top 25 Wwe Superstars???????????

chris benoit is waaaaaay to low on this list, while edge is waaaaay to high, they should switch places and Hulk Hogan is way too low. and i like a lot of the choices, except maybe Randy Orton, Mr. Perfect, Bob Orton, Snuka, and Junkyard dog. I think this list is missing John Cena, Goldburg, Eddie Gurrerro, Sting, Andre the Giant, Kane, HHH, and Santino Marella (joking =) and almost most importantly, Mick Foley.

Sore throat woes.. can you decode my report?

You just have alot of infection- heavy growth of this particular kind- Gram negative is one group and gram positve is another group . all bacteria fall under these two. Then it narrows down to Baccilli- the shape of the bacteria. It narrows down to anaerobic and finally after a few days they have the full name after it grows out in a petrie dish to Beta Lactamase- then they have specific antibiotics for each bacteria. Your body fluid says just rare growth - nothing to worry about-

I have always really loved food and since my 8th grade year, after watching show featuring Jamie Oliver, i knew i wanted to cook as a profession...i worked in my schools cafeteria and attended a few cooking cles in my area and experiment with different food at home n tried different recipes. however, during the summer of my sopre year, at camp, my aunt asked about my future career. she started asking me all sorts of probing questions and i wasnt sure how to answer them because i had been caught off guard as well as the fact that me n her never talked but mabye twice a year...i have never been too comfortable around her. then she asked me to taste a cake for her n tell her how it could be improved...i still wasnt sure how to answer. in the end she concluded that i didnt have a pion for cooking and that i should find a new career path...i listened to her advice and abandoned pursuing that career...it is now four years later and i have found myself regretting not going to culinary school...i am currently a physical education major and i love sports but im not sure if i can see myself doing that for the rest of my life...i feel very confused right now about whether i should switch majors or just finish my bachelors in teaching...my mom has laughed at me when i brought the subject up and says she doesnt see that i have any type of pion for cooking...only my best friend says she believes in me and supports me and thinks that i should switch...any kind of opinion or advice would be greatly appreciated...should i switch my major?

Which are the national awards in movie equivalent to the Oscars in European countries?

I know only four: BAFTA awards in U.K., Gopo awards in Romania, Goya awards in Spain and Cesar awards in France. I'm interested in countries like Czech republic, Poland, Russia. In the Czech republic is Karlovy Vary International Film Festival and in Bosnia is the Sarajevo Film festival. These are the national awards in Bosnia and Czech or these are only film festivals? I want national awards like the Oscars in USA.

Wedding decorations for a church?

Having an archway or decorated columns would be nice. You could use ferns and other greenery to decorate and even fall colored candles or tulle. Another way to tie in the theme would be to have your flower girl toss real or artificial fall colored leaves down the aisle instead of flower petals. If there is a Hobby Lobby store in your area you can gets lots of ideas by just walking through the store. The hay bales sounds like a cute idea. Fall colored fruits such as red and green apples or oranges in clear containers or vases would be nice centerpieces or decoration. The fall theme is very popular and you can find good ideas as well as beautiful pictures in bridal magazines.
