Lady Gaga ends deal with Target stores. Will you boycott Target too?

2012-02-04T23:09:00.000-08:00

http://www.myfoxtwincities.com/dpp/money/gaga-not-gaga-over-target-deal%2C-ends-it-mar-9-2011

Target Stores has donated money to organizations that DO NOT support gays, lesbians, pedophiles, bisexuals OR transgenders. As a result, Lady Gaga has ended a deal with Target stores that would have allowed them to sell an exclusive special addition of her upcoming album.

Will you also join her in boycotting Target?

Answer on Lady Gaga ends deal with Target stores. Will you boycott Target too?

I've been boycotting target for months, ever since I found out. Though for her it's more a publicity stunt then anything to get more cash but that's what Lady Gaga is. She abuses us for the cash, when Gay rights aren't so hot. She'll ditch us again, she's a fake trying to make it huge. But in reality she's a Madonna wannabe and a flash in the pan. I think her five minute of fame are about up.

Why few French soccer fans do not UNDERSTAND that they lost the 2006 WC Final?

2012-01-27T21:01:00.000-08:00

...and ITALY is the WORLD CHAMPION!
FOUR times winner!

Answer on Why few French soccer fans do not UNDERSTAND that they lost the 2006 WC Final?

Not sure, probably cause their only REALLY good player is gone and went out so classlessy, so they have to blame it on the italians!!! Oh well, we dont have to care what any of them say... we have 3 more world cup titles than them and that proves it.... qualifying matches dont prove how good you are, its the important games that count and that is the kind of team that italy is... they perform when it matters

How does this weight loss plan sound?

2012-01-23T06:55:00.000-08:00

Wake up have a black coffee and apple ( gives me lots of energy)
I run for about 2 km walk 1 km as a cool down every morning
Do weight resistance training
Eat well balanced foods for the rest of the day. I never drink pop or anything else besides coffee tea(all black no cream or sugar) and of course water.
I'm 5'6 and weigh 130lbs but have severe asthma which prevents me from having good endurance.
How long will it take me to lose 10lbs?
Anything I should change or any tips?
I also have the body type that builds muscle really fast and I don't want to be "buff" any tips on how to prevent that?

Answer on How does this weight loss plan sound?

Don't just have coffee to keep you energised. Have a bowl of porridge or a banana.

Here is a tip: Do more cardio workout then strength. You will start to develop muscle of fat which means you won't burn off anything

How do I wash my bras without damaging them?

2012-01-14T06:56:00.000-08:00

I just dump my bras in the washing machine, once it's done. It gets deformed and doesn't look like the bras I had when I bough them. Can someone please help me? I don't want my mom or I to keep spending money on expensive bras at La Senza.

Answer on How do I wash my bras without damaging them?

If you throw your bras in with the rest of the washing they are going to get all tangled up and then they will be pulled out of shape.

To prevent this from happening I suggest that you make a small bag out of some spare material or an old t-shirt or something similar. Add a drawstring so that you can fasten the bag.

Place bras in the bag before washing them and just throw the bag, containing the bras, in with the rest of the washing. That way you don't have to wash bras separately and they can't get tangled up in the wash. Easy!

Post love triangle drama help?

2011-12-28T15:19:00.000-08:00

ok so this is gonna be long...
i dated a girl for a year. we had a terrible breakup. before she left for italy she had a thing with another girl named k, for about 3 weeks but claims it was nothing but sex. this happend in march.
i got back together with my girl 2 weeks ago. she knows i dont like k (i feel like she was the other woman, and shes just a btch). anyway. my girl and k havent talked in a while but recently k left a message on her myspace "Listening to T&S and really really missing you.
Smooch! =)"
i wrote k this message..."Hi, Your comments to A (my girl) are making me uncomfortable. A would feel the same way if she saw simliar comments on my page. So please stop. Thanks!" I told A that i was confronting k and she approved the message. cause im trying to hate all her exes.
this is what k replied "Hey, Um, I’m pretty sure that you have no right to ask me that. #1…of the 41 comments that are sitting on her page right now, not including my own, 24 people (that’s over half) said they missed her so don’t act like me saying it is anything special. #2…I’m pretty sure A doesn’t feel the same way. She has to approve any comments that go up. While I may not be here to create problems between the two of you, I’m not going to let someone I don’t know tell me how to express myself to my friends. You being uncomfortable is an issue that you have to deal with, not me. I don’t go around telling you what to say to your friends. If I miss her, I’ll tell her. Thanks"

what a btch right? i dont think my message was rude and for her to come back like that after waiting a week to respond is a bit ridiculous. how can i tell my girl that this k girl is not a good person to have around? and what can i do to make her see this and hopefully end all communications with her? the problem is A doesnt want to be "mean."

if we're going to be in this relationship we have to back eachother up when confronting another person esp an ex. am i right?

Answer on Post love triangle drama help?

Talk to "a" about it. If you too love each other, things will be okay.

Will I be able to lose 30 pounds by the holidays with this plan?

2011-12-24T23:54:00.000-08:00

I wanna lose about 25 lbs. I'm 140 lbs and 5'2" and my goal is to be at 110 - 117 by the holidays (so I can gain it all back hahahaha XD)

Here is my usual exercise/activity plan
After school/before dinner I have two options that I do:

1. This may sound silly, but my sibling and I like to pretend we're performing on stage like a band or something, and we just sing along to songs, but I do alot of running, jumping and dancing. It;s usually about an hour to an hour and 20 mins we do that, and I don't jump and stuff the whole time, I gotta catch my breath a little and all.......so it's probably around 30 - 45 minutes of that.....(it's fun so I'm more likely to do it and not get too bored or anything)

Or:

2. 45 minutes of cardio..........i usually do some on my bike and treadmill, mixing it up daily.......i may also start doing intense DDR on some days too. since I can't increase how long I do it, after two weeks of my normal speed on my, let's say my bike for an example, (30 - 36m) i'll increase my speed a little bit.

I'll do that Mon, Wed, Fri, Sun

And then on Tues, Thurs and Sat:

I'll do my "concert" routine after school, and after dinner I'll do 30 minutes of strength training with things like:

Squats (i'll be doing different types, increasing reps every week)
Walking lunges (50 on each leg, increasing by 15 each week)
Pilates (I'll be doing different pilate routines for abs)
Push-ups (various types, also increasing reps)
Planks (various moves)

Etc etc

I'm also thinking about adding 30 minutes of cardio after dinner on Mon, Wed, Fri, Sun....

And an example of what I plan on eating:

Breakfast:

My breakfast will be either:

1. Frozen raspberries or some fruit or of some sort with two strips of vegetarian bacon wrapped around a little bit of lettuce with some mixed vegetables in the lettuce (sounds weird, but it's good) and a glass of skim milk and some green tea

2. Fruit and a whole wheat bagel with a serving of peanut butter, and skim milk and green tea

Snack 1: Fruit or carrots

Lunch, also a few different things I eat:

1. A vegetable burger on a whole wheat bagel with lettuce and mustard and either a piece of fruit (probably an apple) or some vegetables with it

2. Vegetarian fajitas made with tofu, carrots, onion and bellpepper, whole wheat tortilla shells and low fat monzarella cheese

3. A vegetable stir-fry made with tofu, potatoes, and other sorts of vegetables and maybe some fruit with it

Snack 2: Vegetables, probably carrot

Dinner: Either a large salad with cooked tofu or a fruit salad

Snack 3: If I need one, it will be fruit

And on my weekly cheat day I will eat a Skinny Cow brand of diet ice cream, 120 calories per serving (it's an ice cream bar so I don't serve it myself)

Calorie count for some of these foods:

Vegetarian morning star brand of bacon - 60 calories per serving (one serving is two slices
Veggie Burgers, also morning star - 110 calories
Wheat Bagels - 110 calories
Wheat Tortillas - 120 calories

And my green tea doesn't have any sugar in it.

I'll be drinking 3 liters of water a day, and eating about 1300 calories.
I'm also a vegetarian
I do not eat fish, chick peas, eggs, lentils or beans.

Does this sound good?

Answer on Will I be able to lose 30 pounds by the holidays with this plan?

Honestly I think it sounds good :) I think that you could honestly lose 30lbs by the holidays, don't be suprised if you lose more than that--if you stick with this of course :)

but all in all, your excercise routines sounds excellent, as well as your choise for food. remember with salads, you can not have salad dressing (instead use olive oil) & I think you should only treat yourself to the skinny cow ice cream, unless you've lost weight--use it as a reward and treat yourself when you've lost a few lbs.

:) but all together, excellent! I think you will reach your goal weight if you stick with it :) goodluck to you!

What is best to whear on a plane?

2011-12-10T21:42:00.000-08:00

i'm goin from london to italy so has to be light coz its gonna be very hot there
plz guys help me, i want him to be like wow when he sees me!!!

Answer on What is best to whear on a plane?

Take some comfy flats to wear onboard and at the London airport, and just before landing, slip into some red stilettos to go with a figure-flattering white dress with simple detailing. Wear all your accessories in red and white- white for the heat, with a touch of red to spice it up. Try red earrings/belt with a white necklace. Take your stuff for the plane in a sexy statement bag and top of the look with some light sunglasses and a fresh, summer fragrance. If it's nippy in London, throw on a
Light leather jacket. Good luck! :)

Can a man become a paralegal and succeed I saw 750 job listings nationwide for Paralegals on Monster?

2011-09-28T17:27:00.000-07:00

Its funny how I call up paralegals and they tell me business is slow when I see so many job openings on monster.com. So should I be excited to atend college at College Of The Canyons and become a Latino male Paralegal.

Answer on Can a man become a paralegal and succeed I saw 750 job listings nationwide for Paralegals on Monster?

Your gender is irrelevant as to whether you will be successful as a paralegal but 750 jobs nationwide for a career field is not a lot of job openings nationwide. Further if you bother to read most of those job listings you will most likely find that the majority of them require at least a few years of prior experience. I just did a search on Monster limiting the number of job listings to those within 20 miles of California (where you are) for full time positions for candidates with less than 1 year of experience and it only produced 6 listings, of those 6 listings only 2 were actually for full time positions for candidates with less than 1 year of experience (so much for the search filters on Monster). Even nationwide a search for full time paralegal jobs on Monster for paralegals with less than 1 year of experience was 40.

The job market for paralegals is not great. I'm not saying that based on the Monster searches. Part of my job is interviewing and hiring corporate paralegals for my law firm. The legal services industry was slammed by the recession and there are still hundreds of unemployed or partially employed paralegals with more experience and better credentials than you. Before the recession we typically had between 4 and 6 full time paralegals in our corporate department but since the recession we've kept the number at 3 after layoffs were made. There are still many experienced paralegals with good credentials that are unemployed or partially employed.

Au pair in USA?

2011-09-14T13:48:00.000-07:00

Hi, I'm from Italy, and i have couple of questions to ask:
My girlfriend is from Denmark and from this summer she'd like to do the Au pair in Usa (She will have a sabath year).. she looked on some website as greatupair.com etc..
She got a message from a family which contact her, but to answer them back she needs to become a Member, paying..is it sure?like paying by credit card etc?Is it a fraud? Families who offer like 400$ per week can be trusted? I think it is a fraud, cause for that much everybody would do it..
what u think? Which agency my girlfriend should contact, to be protected? and how much it costs? What does she need to do (like visa etc..)? Just explain me how it works and please answer at my questions as soon as possible.. Please it's very important..

Answer on Au pair in USA?

The U.S. regulations say that sponsors shall be required to compensate au pairs as below:

Compensated at a weekly rate based upon 45 hours per week and paid in conformance with the requirements of the Fair Labor Standards Act as interpreted and implemented by the United States Department of Labor. EduCare participants shall be compensated at a weekly rate that is 75% of the weekly rate paid to non-EduCare participants;

If $400 sounds like too much for 45 hours, then it may not be trustworthy. Starting July 24, 2008, $176.85 will be the weekly stipend (including room and board) for the standard
Au Pair. So, yes, $400 sounds high.

Weight Loss for Teenager Girls?

2011-09-09T03:50:00.000-07:00

I'm 16, and weight 160 pounds. I'm 5'2 and I'm supposed to weight about 110 pounds. I'm fairly athletic despite being overweight, as a small amount is muscle from years of soccer and martial arts, but I'm still very fat.

I hate being like this, but it is very difficult to change without being anemic or bulimic or something such as that. Diets are very difficult to stick to because at school we all trade food and goodies at such, and I have since quit martial arts, so I don't go to class and work out anymore.

Pretty much what it boils down to is this: I'm a fatass, and I'm not getting any thinner by sitting around. I know that. I'm also very lazy and have very little will power when it comes to food. Because I'm a teenager I'm broke and don't have access to any programs for weight loss.

I need help, because soon this will take over my life, I can tell. What can I do to lose weight fairly quickly, and rather consistently for a while? Even 20 pounds would be better. I feel horrible right now!

I don't eat breakfast often, because I'm never hungry in the morning. I go to bed fairly late, between 11pm and 1am, and I don't have a lot of time for exercising, due to after school clubs and other commitments. I can cook, and I do cook very well, but I know of hardly any yummy diet food that's easy to make and store. Please help me!

If you have any advice or ideas, please please please let me know. Thank you so much.

Answer on Weight Loss for Teenager Girls?

As you are into cultural activities mainly marshal arts you will have to face the problem your goin through. the only thing is drink water for better results.

What the law is, if who make it do not respect it in first person?

2011-09-07T08:46:00.000-07:00

I wonder the ones who should make lex operative was in first a law beliver, or not?
In Italy, where I live, POLICE IN FIRST break laws any time without reason, maybe for some special reason or maybe not. The question is: what should a police man do to preserve and respect the law the police can't respect himself?
Thank you all,
best regards.

Answer on What the law is, if who make it do not respect it in first person?

Sounds like you have had some bad experiences and are projecting your frustrations onto the police officers who may or may not have arrested you. I'm in USA and I know here, especially with all the media attention that can accompany any breach of the law by a police officer (and should) that officers are held to the same standards as non police officers. They just know the laws so they can take what they do right to the limit and not break it if they are that kind of person.

If thats not what you meant then sorry, I had a hard time understanding your question

Verbally Abusive Wife?

2011-08-31T06:59:00.000-07:00

OK I appreciate you guys reading this as I really need help.

My wife and I have been together 5 years married for one with a 9 month old baby boy. We have had turbulent times and have had a years worth of counseling before we got married for anger issues on both our parts. We had not had any problems since then.

Yet, she has reverted to old behaviour in the last month. This last weekend was the worst I have ever seen her. The baby wakes up around 8 am and she says " wake up and help me feed the baby", I said ok no big deal. She then comes back and tells me to clean up the dirt my soccer shoes left on the mat because the baby might get it. I think ok your getting the bowl for the baby ill clean up the dirt. It took me less than 60 seconds and she flipped. I was going to feed the baby also. She went into how I never do anything and tells the baby I didnt want to feed him and I dont care for him. I became very upset because I believe the baby can understand what shes saying. I go to work during the week, then school after work, come home and play with baby and help wash him. On the weekends I help clean up and try to spend as much family time as I can. I do as much as I can possibly fit into my schedule to help and give love and attention.

.Later that night she became intoxicated and barges into the bedroom and demands the baby sleep in the crib. I said ok , but the baby cried for like 15 minutes so I brought him back into bed and we fell asleep. She decides to barge in again and at this point she is scaring the crap out of me and i dint want her handling my son. She forcibly tries to tear my kid from my arms and bites me in the process. I refuse to let him go as i thought she was a threat got him dressed and tell her were leaving. She hid my keys wallet and phone so i could not leave. So i just locked myself and the baby into the room. We have not spoken in days except for her telling me im a POS and D*CK. retard etc. I do not answer back.

I dont know what to do. I feel no matter what its never enough. I dont want to break my family up. I help as much as I can but I start graduate school in a few months, I will be less available then. She is a stay at home mom mostly. I feel the silent treatment is my only option so i dont fall into her trap of twisting it back on me or making the situation worse. When I try to talk to her I just get shut down or more verbal abuse. Any advice appreciated.

Answer on Verbally Abusive Wife?

wow, thats too bad. Woman have been the victims for so long and so much more then men that when a man claims abuse no body knows what to think. In reality, it happens alot more then you think, the thing is men dont report abuse because, number one, what man is willing to admit that his wife talks to him as though she has no respect for his feelings and there is little need for her to exert control because she knows he will not return the attack because he is a man and he loves his wife plus he isn't going to work tomorrow and tell his boss that his wife bites and scratches and insults him. Trying to preserve a shred of dignity men will keep quiet. The problem is how do you convey to your wife that what she is doing will not be acceptable and that you are establishing a limit. Then there has to be a action on your part to take what ever steps you feel appropriate and were set forth during your talk. Best to talk when she isn't melting down. Well, men tend to hang in there maybe too long. We sometimes have a much deeper commitment to the woman then they to us. The silent treatment is bad, don't do it. All that will do in most cases is give her the feeling that you don't care about her, if its attention she wants then that's the worst approach..if you get to a point where the thought of being without her makes you sigh with relief and when you consider your future you are unable to picture her in it...you know what you must do. Good Luck !

Has anyone taken a cruise that departs overseas and cruises Europe?

2011-08-29T03:06:00.000-07:00

Live in U.S. thinking about flying to Rome tour there, then take 12day cruise that departs from Rome to go to Spain, Venice&Monaco. Has anyone taken a European cruise? What are your experiences and would it be better to go to Rome and then another country? Me and my husband are just trying to get in as many places as we can for great price so we figured a cruise. We dont know if we will regret spending so little time in each port and wonder if we should just do like Italy and another country since that would fit our budget. Any help or suggestions? What are great places to take cruises to overseas?

Answer on Has anyone taken a cruise that departs overseas and cruises Europe?

I/we have taken two cruises of the Mediterranean and have another booked now. Our first cruise began in Barcelona and had port stops in Nice, Florence/Pisa, Naples, and Rome Italy; then Athens, Santorini and Mykonos, Greece; then Kusadari, Turkey (not in that exact order). Our next cruise of the Med also departed from Barcelona but had stops in Spain, Portugal, Gibralter, Morocco and the Canary Islands.

What we found was that the 8 or 9 hours that we had in each port was sufficient to see things and get a flavor for the country/port, with one exception. You do need more time in Rome because there are so many things to see and so many people touring that it takes a bit of time to get to and through attractions. It is good that you plan to spend time in Rome before your cruise.

Two things you should be aware of. First, the port for cruises from Rome is a good hour, or more by bus, train, or shuttle from the city. SO plan plenty of time to get to the port on the day of your cruise. We did not take the train between Rome and the Civitavecchia port but I understand that you can do that and there is regular service. Second, you can use the trains in Europe to get around very easily. They go most places you may want to see and run regularly. You can even reserve right on line and they will mail you your tickets. We did that for travel between London and Paris and also between Madrid and Barcelona.

You need to decide before you book which ports stops are most important to/for you and book accordingly. There are a variety of cruises and they do not all do the same itinerary. Some cruises are 7 days and others are 12 to 14 days. Some cruises are round trip (start and finish at same port) and others are one way. If you want to see Venice and Rome then you will probably have to take a one-way cruise that is more than 7-days long because Rome and Venice are on opposite sides of Italy. We prefer the 12 to 14 day cruises because once you spend the airfare to get to Europe you want to see as much as you can.

Whatever you do be sure to fly to the departure port city at least a day early so that you do not miss your cruise due to a flight delay or cancellation; and that also gives time if your luggage is lost or delays. On our last cruise we had a flight cancellation AND our luggage was lost for 2 days. Fortunately we flew to the departure city 3 days early.

My favorite Mediterranean ports:
Rome
Florence/Pisa
Naples
Santorini
Mykonos
Ephesus
Gibralter
Canary Islands
Athens

What do you think about Sarah Palin's take on free speech limits in the US?

2011-08-01T01:06:00.000-07:00

From this article:
http://dailycaller.com/2011/03/03/palin-…

Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin clarified remarks posted on Twitter this week in response to a Supreme Court ruling in favor of a church that demonstrates at military funerals, saying she was making a point about a double standard on free speech, not that the group shouldn’t have the right to protest.

Her quote was interpreted by many news outlets, including The Daily Caller, to mean that she disagreed with the Supreme Court’s ruling, although in a new statement exclusive to TheDC, Palin said she agreed with the ruling in favor of the church.

Obviously my comment meant that when we’re told we can’t say ‘God bless you’ in graduation speeches or pray before a local football game but these wackos can invoke God’s name in their hate speech while picketing our military funerals, it shows ridiculous inconsistency,” Palin told TheDC. “I wasn’t calling for any limit on free speech, and it’s a shame some folks tried to twist my comment in that way. I was simply pointing out the irony of an often selective interpretation of free speech rights.”

Answer on What do you think about Sarah Palin's take on free speech limits in the US?

Palin’s original statement, posted the day of the ruling, read: “Common sense & decency absent as wacko ‘church’ allowed hate msgs spewed@ soldiers’ funerals but we can’t invoke God’s name in public square.”

Read more: http://dailycaller.com/2011/03/03/palin-…
And she's right, is she not? Try a prayer before a sporting event or a government function (legislature, for instance), the libs will get all up your azz with that misinterpreted 'church and state' BS, will they not? But inflicting this pain on top of the grief of the families of fallen soldiers is fine with them, that's 'free speech', which it is. But where's the decency?

So no matter what her comments are, they are 'interpreted' by leftist media to put whatever she says out of context and in as bad a light as possible. That's new? Notice nowhere did she say anything about constitutional rights, only commented on the vileness of this group of wackos doing their thing at fallen soldiers funerals.

Not to worry, there's a large group of bikers that have taken the challenge of 'counter protest' against the 'church members'. Future events could be quite entertaining.

How can I style my hair like Lady Gaga in this picture?

2011-07-25T04:24:00.000-07:00

http://www.haircutshairstyles.com/img/ph…

I just got my hair cut to look like this. Now I need to know how I can style it everyday to look like it!

This is Lady Gaga's natural hair style and color, which I think is gorgeous. I love her and I also love this cut. Thanks for your help! :)

Answer on How can I style my hair like Lady Gaga in this picture?

Good choice.
First, curl your bangs.
Curl them so they don't look as if they are glued to your head, but as if they are popping off slightly.
Next curl your hair. All of it. Big luxurious curls, that bounce. Only brush it out if you don't want it to be so prominent. Finally, take some styling gell and rub it together on your hands. Scrunch your curls, and part your hair so a majority of it is in front of your shoulders. You want to make it a very whispy look, but still cute and charming. Run your hands (with the gell) through your hair, until it gets to that perfectly messy look. Tease the top slightly if need.

At lastly, hairspray, so the curls don't lose form. Good luck!(:

What kind of clothes do people wear in Italy?

2011-07-18T21:56:00.000-07:00

ive looked on many websites but nothing said much on the topic. Please help!!!!

Answer on What kind of clothes do people wear in Italy?

Much, much better clothes than Americans. No shorts (EVER) , sneakers, or "sweats" unless you are participating in athletics. Women and girls wear heels and skirts most of the time. Men wear leather shoes and French cuff shirts daily. Western Europeans tend to have less clothes in general per wardrobe than Americans, but what they have is of lasting quality.

How long might it take to learn Italian?

2011-06-16T18:03:00.000-07:00

Not to be totally fluent, but decent at it. Like able to go to Italy and get by.
I also already have some background in Spanish which i know is similar to Italian in words and verbs and grammar, but obviously not the same.

Answer on How long might it take to learn Italian?

i?d say a year, to be able to have some fluency, of course it?s up to each person, italian grammar has a lot of details, a lot of verb tenses, then you have 2 ways to say something for example in one verb tense "ho mangiato" (i?ve eaten) but you have to say "sono andato" (i?ve left), also you have the differences between di/da, in/a.. Spanish has it more simple, however, having a background in Spanish will make things easier for you.Good luck!

Any ideas how I can raise money for son to go to Italy? School trip?

2011-06-08T10:55:00.000-07:00

My 12 year old will be going to Italy ,with school next summer.
Ineed help with ideas. I am not making much money So that is why want to have fund raisers. Ideas please.

Answer on Any ideas how I can raise money for son to go to Italy? School trip?

Times are tough now, nobody seems to have money. My friend was in a similar situation, and she needed money fast.
She ended up finding a site to sell some gold on. She had a lot of jewelry she never wore. She did a lot of research and found a great site. I will provide the link for you below in the source box.
She compared a lot of companies and she liked this one the best. They gave her the best price for her gold, and she got paid fast for it. She liked the fact that they are a member of the BBB, and they were featured in USA Today. Check it out, it doesn't cost anything to fill out the form and get more information about it. It is a great site, lots of info.
Best of luck, hope your son loves Italy. I have always wanted to go there. I will get there someday!

Will I go to juvenile detention and whats it like?

2011-06-02T14:23:00.000-07:00

I got arrested at school for a Felony Possession of a Controlled Substance with Intent to Distribute, I'm 15 year old male. I wouldn't tell the cops who i got it from or who i was sellin too. Its my 1st offense, how long am i goin to juvy and what's it like?

Answer on Will I go to juvenile detention and whats it like?

You will probably go to juvie since it was a felony possession. I have no idea whatsoever how long you'll be there. Juvie is very unpleasant. It is jail. You may have to live in a dormitory-like setting, and you should be careful. Many times older, larger guys rape the younger inmates in juvie. I know of a case of a boy who was in juvie for protection from his abusive father, but the boy was raped by four guys the first night.

How do you use Twitter?

2011-05-14T10:18:00.000-07:00

Hi, I have facebook and I'm planning on opening up Twitter.

My questions on Twitter are:
* How do you contact people on Twitter?
* Can you add people on Twitter like on FB (if not please state alternative)?
* Can you just follow anybody on Twitter?
* How do you look for friends on Twitter?
* Can you send direct messages to people on Twitter?
* Can you message just anybody on Twitter?

Answer on How do you use Twitter?

Twitter is like facebook in a lot of ways - it's not friend oriented though. It's celebrity oriented.
You can follow ANYONE, and then their tweets (like statuses) appear on your homepage.

You don't add people you follow them, and they follow you. Then you both see each others tweets.

Yup, You can follow anyone, they might make their security so they have to confirm it but 99% don't.

You search for their username or by their email addresses.

Yeah - Sending messages is easy enough. If you don't get it just say in additional details and i'll provide more help.

Yeah - You can message anyone. Even celebrities. But it might not be their profile. Just some fan..

Hope it helps :)

Could someone please explain to your majesty who this gentleman Drake that you youths often now discuss of is?

2011-05-01T10:23:00.000-07:00

Quite frankly, I hereby assume this "Drake" gentleman is attempting to take over the classic name that I made legendary over four-hundred years ago. Also, may I ask what is Rap or Hip Hop as you youths often call unto this genre, and what stringed instruments are used for the making of compositions in this genre in which I therefor speak of?

~ Sir Francis Drake

Answer on Could someone please explain to your majesty who this gentleman Drake that you youths often now discuss of is?

To answer your question: Drake is a rapper that is currently on the radio. He has an album that is coming out that people are anxiously waiting for (not me). Hip-Hop is not a genre but a culture accepted around the 1970's. Rap is "rythm and poetry". To rap you need to have good breath control, a mind that is fast enough to capture the time to speak the poetry. Electric guitar, bass, drum, electric keyboard, percussion, sousaphone etc are used in many cases as the music. Professionals also use a studio http://www.aftermathmusic.de/_blog/wp-content/uploads/drdre/200902/002.jpg to make their music.

Planning a trip to Italy and I don't know where to start! Suggestions please?

2011-04-30T17:38:00.000-07:00

I am planning to go to Italy this summer, but I feel so overwhelmed and I have no clue where to start planning. It seems like there are so so so many wonderful cities and so much to do! Can someone suggest a few cities and must-see's.
I am going to be with my father, little sister, and cousin who is my age, so not so much disco's party scene.
Anything that you have experienced in Italy and loved, feel free to tell me about.
Thank you so much!

Answer on Planning a trip to Italy and I don't know where to start! Suggestions please?

Don't make the biggest mistake that foreign visitors often make: they think that Italy is a small country, with few "must-see" places easy to reach in few hours, and they spend some days turning around here and there, spending a lot of money and most of their time travelling, without enjoying any of the places they see. It would be very easy to make a list of beautiful places: one could say "Rome, Venice, Palermo, Dolomites, Cinque Terre, Florence, Pisa, Naples, Lake Como, Siena, Padua, Milan, San Gimignano..." and so away. But to see the best way these places you'd need two months at least.
Buy a good guidebook (they are usually much more reliable than websites) and choose one place or one area, or places not too far one from another, and plan to visit these places well and without hurry.

Could i know why it is insisted to follow diet restrictions and exercising rigorously when you are in a weight?

loss program using machines?

Answer on Could i know why it is insisted to follow diet restrictions and exercising rigorously when you are in a weight?

You are exercising for reducing your weight.
Weight is added to you because of the food you eat.
So, its like a minus and plus, and if you stop the plus (eating much), only then the minus (exercise) will work.

How would you deal with a MIL like this...?

2011-04-17T05:44:00.000-07:00

The past, 12 years ago, she was awful. Tried to break us apart. Didn't think he's stayed with me and so she really pushed it. Now 12 years later, moved miles away from her, had a baby this year, her first and we try to stay in touch better because of it. I forgave her in my own heart, years ago. But I don't trust her. She's jealous and nosy to this day. But she tries to act fake and nice and that's good enough. Bit what I can't do, is be her daughter. She started this new thing since baby was born, she calls us all three her youngins now. She wants to act like she's the big momma over us all. And wants me to be like a daughter and I can't do that. She's welcome to be who she is, abs that's my husband mother and my baby's grandmother. But why do I need to be a daughter?

She reffers to my baby as her baby. She calls them both her boys, and posts under pics of them on facebook saying "looks, it's mommies big and little baby boys" aren't I the mommy of the little one? Why won't she just be grandma? I've been gracious and uplfting of her to everyone, respecting her as who she is, because I love my husband and son. But I'm an adult and a mother now. Why can she only treat me like one of the youngins? She doesn't have that role with me. Thanks for reading..

Answer on How would you deal with a MIL like this...?

You should look at it like this; the more she says stuff like that, the more the people who read her posts realize she's overstepping her bounds. Just understand that people don't fool easily, and even though they don't say anything because it's technically none of their business, they realize that she is belittling you. By ignoring it, you come off as the bigger, better person.
I just hope she's doing a lot of babysitting, since she seems to want the responsibility of parenthood so badly.

My hair is getting so thin and falling out! HELP!!?

2011-04-13T00:14:00.000-07:00

My hair has been coming out a lot when i'm in the shower or brushing it and I don't know why! I was studying abroad in Italy from January-May where we would go out atleast 6 nights a week and I would curl my hair and put a lot of product in it to make it look good. I haven't been curling my hair at all..let it air dry..and put in leave in conditioner etc..but it's SOOO thin..i used to have a lot of hair and its just thinning..help!

Answer on My hair is getting so thin and falling out! HELP!!?

Don't brush your hair while it's wet. It breaks your hair & makes it thinner. Try washing your hair with just water or with just conditioner every other day or two, doing so will make your hair moisturized and keeps the natural oils that keeps it thick. On the other days, you can use shampoo. Use a very mild shampoo. Stop using so many chemicals in your hair. Just let your hair down for a few days. It'll still look nice.

I binge eat..I need tips.?

2011-04-07T08:07:00.000-07:00

While away at school, I eat a very routine diet that seems to keep me at 94 lbs. When I come home for breaks, however, I binge and eat a ton of food. This is bad and I don't want to become overweight. I weighed 101 this morning. Anyone do the same thing? I need tips to prevent myself from doing this. =/

Answer on I binge eat..I need tips.?

I drink lots of water, if you can't stay busy, chew gum....brushing your teeth will also keep you from eating or drinking anything since it makes things taste weird. Just snack on healthy things like fruit, Oranges, bananas, apples or grapes

Vomiting, diarrhea, sore throat, loss of weight, and fever what's wrong with me?

2011-04-06T22:16:00.000-07:00

I've been like this for the past 3 days!

Answer on Vomiting, diarrhea, sore throat, loss of weight, and fever what's wrong with me?

Sounds like the flu.
Make sure to not let yourself get dehydrated. Sip as much clear liquids as possible.
I know it's tough when your throwing up but at least try to keep yourself hydrated by sucking on ice chips for now.
Hope you feel better soon~

USA Mens Soccer coach Bob Bradley should be fired?

2011-04-02T20:52:00.000-07:00

Damn after Bob made the stupidest decision to put low level rookies in the Copa america hopefully he will use the experience he gained in that tournament, if any, and get a win against Argentina, which i doubt, but yeah this guy Bob is stupid how the hell does he go to Europe lose and come back and intend to beat Argentina?

This guy at least knows now that you don't put up a stupid line up against Argentina, unless you wanna get fired..

Seriously Bob Bradley should be fired for letting his son play in the MNT and he should be fired for losing all these games in a row. The only reason Bruce arena was fired was because he lost 2 games in a row and had one respectful tie with Italy in the world Cup. SEriously Bruce Arena was a way better coach than Bob Bradley , BOB Bradley sucks, all he does is sit in the bench and becomes a spectator. That guy needs to be fired....whos with me on this one?

It's not like Bruce was great, but Bob isn't any much of an improvement.

Answer on USA Mens Soccer coach Bob Bradley should be fired?

Micheal Bradley is probably one of the better American players in Europe for SC Heerenveen. Many thought the same about being the coaches son, but He is actually quite a very good player and for only to be 20 yrs old....I think you are being a bit harsh on him.

I'm indifferent, Bradley wanted to field a stronger side in the Copa America but the US Federation did not let him mainly because the federation wanted to focus on the Gold Cup(easier route to get to the 2009 Confederations Cup)...I don't blame Bradley for the US Federations decision, who were also the ones who rejected numerous invitations to the Copa America since 1995 until last year....

Actually, as a South American and like CONMEBOL Officials, I did feel insulted with the squad the US brought to the most important National team tournament in the Americas...

Bob Bradley right now is testing out numerous amounts of players to solidify his squad....I think he currently has 50 players on his roster list, which he will need to cut down once qualifiers begin...on that note...
You must also be aware, these games the USA are playing since last summer are just friendlies.....if these games were World Cup Qualifiers, then you would have a stronger point to want Bradley's head.

I criticized the USA for hardly ever leaving the USA to play their friendlies and against stronger competition. Going to England and Spain to play these games just shows they mean business in progressing the game.
I think the experience these players get from playing these friendlies against strong competition mean more than anything....even if they lose...

Bruce Arena was let go because after all those years of him in charge, they felt it was time for change....Arena did a good job progressing the stature of the USA in Footy because I still remember the days were playing the USA was an easy victory.....it is not anymore.....

Edit: Why do you dislike Micheal Bradley so much aside from being the coaches son? I think he has a lot of potential and even football pundits feel he has been one of the better American players on the squad for you overall.....

Edit: Well...I think your going to have to suffer until 2010 with him lol.....Fortunately for the USA and Mexico, qualifying from CONCACAF is not considered too difficult and they are good enough to qualify with Bradley at the helm....though I think both Canada and Honduras will be good competition this time around....
They will judge him on how far he can get the USA in the World Cup probably...(bare in mind the confederations cup is considered a mickey mouse tournament)....

Breast reduction, weight loss, pregnancy dillemma/obbession!! Help!!?

2011-02-04T15:12:00.000-08:00

Ok so I am about 5'6" tall and i weigh 177 lbs. I think that it is mostly because I have a lot of muscle and large breasts. But whatever..call me fat if you must....heres a pic: http://www.myspace.com/kellikarma Anyways, I had a baby in January 2008 which i had ballooned from 186 (in april 07) to 228 when I delivered my son. I have done various things to lose weight such as dance and diet pills (hate them) and that got me down to 195 and then finally the atkins diet which has brought me to 177. Well, I have plateaued (equilibrium, sorry for spelling) and i am pretty upset. My boobs are still about a 40 dd, but i try to squeeze them into my old 38 d's which have not fit me since i got prego. I have terrible back pain, want smaller boobs, and really want to be about 140 lbs. OR LESS. I still would like to have more children...ideally 2 more, but i dont know what to do...should i get a breast reduction first, try to lose weight more or just have the kids and then fix my body?

Answer on Breast reduction, weight loss, pregnancy dillemma/obbession!! Help!!?

If you have back pain it would greatly alleviate it. It can also be covered by insurance which covered my surgery 100%.

Who is the Best-Rapper that still makes music?

2011-02-03T09:55:00.000-08:00

Okay, Big question! There are alot of possabilities, Personally I'll name my Top-5 Rappers that still make music:
5:Drake
4:Ludacris
3:Dr.Dre
2:Lil Wayne
1:Eminem

Okay, Now time to support my answers.
We'll start from 5, to the best which is 1.

Drake- I know....I know, He is new, But he is raw and his voice is simply AMAZING! I know that I hate rappers that rap bout success and how good they are, That's why Jay Z Isn't on here...and plus he sucks. Anyways Drake makes good music, With catchy lines. I didn't choose him becuz I love Degrassi, But becuz Im into Rap right now and he is one of the Artists that take up most of the room on my playlist. I stand by my decision.

Ludacris- OMG! Ludacris is a god! He is one of the best ever, I bought Battle Of The Sexes, His newest album, I would just like to say....It's pretty awesome. I mean his flow, rhythym, and lyrics are just fan-frikken-tastic. Luda is one of tha best, A future legend.

Dr.Dre- Yo, Dre. There's not much to say...Jk there's lots to say. From his days with NWA and Eazy-E(I would have chose him, If he were alive, R.I.P.) To his solo album, The Chronic, Dr.Dre is still a great rapper. Not only that but is an amazing producer, And look up some songs of Eminem's with Dre in it, and Dre's lines are pretty good.

Lil Wayne- HAAA! Young Weezy! He is a true legend in the rap game. Time will stand still when Young Wayne leaves the game. His lyrics...Well gah! I mean for a b.g. that raps, They're actually pretty good. Okay, I mean Rebirth sucks.....BIG TIME! But that's not his rapping, thats his rock. Which sucks, Anyways Tha Carter III is one of the best Rap Albums of all time. Lil Wayne is one of my favorite Rappers EVER!

Eminem- Okay, This guy blows all tha other rappers out of the water. I mean, He's so fast, and his lines make sense, he has a great sense of humor. Sure Relapse might of been bout Strangling lesbians after he gets them pregnant and melting babies, and sticking umbrella in a girls V Zone and opening it up. Eminem is the BEST OF ALL TIME! I mean, I can listen to one of his songs 30 times before i can say one of his lines as fast as he does. He curses, But just the right amount. I mean, I can't say enough about Eminem.

Okay, So I gave you my list, Now give me your list, Tell me whats wrong with mine, Or just comment and say "Nice choices" or "you suck, you retard!" Thanks for readin :D

Answer on Who is the Best-Rapper that still makes music?

Actually i pre much i agree with you! And yer drake is good as haha but my top 5 would be like 1. Eminem (this guy is priceless gawsh ever since when im gone ive loved him) 2. Lil Wayne 3. T.I 4. Drake 4. Jay-Z and 5. He is old but he is so good VANILLA ICE ICE ICE BABY HE RAPS SOOO FAST IM PRE GOOD ON SINSTAR THOUGH LMAO Anyways i like all rap let me know if u find any new rapstars! You should check out Young Moneys Bed Rock!!

Are people annoyed in Italy when tourists know no Italian?

2011-01-03T07:28:00.000-08:00

and how much will people appreciate it if i learn italian?

I've read that people are very nice to english-only speaking tourists, but how generally will people respond to me if i speak no italian, little italian, a medium amount of italian, a lot of italian, and perfect italian?

Answer on Are people annoyed in Italy when tourists know no Italian?

Of course we like when tourists try to speak italian! Also if they mistake.
But we don't have any problem if you don't speak our language.
Also no-english speak italians or who speaks a very poor english (just like me!) has no problem! They answer to you anyway.
Of course if you speak a little or medium italian everyone will appreciate it and will be surprised.

Anybody ever been to Rome, Italy?

2011-01-02T07:09:00.000-08:00

Just wondering how much it will cost to tour the ancient part of the city and stay in hotels? Am considering about a weeks time sometime this summer. Thank you.

Answer on Anybody ever been to Rome, Italy?

Why do you have this posted in the ethnic food section rather than in Travel Italy? Anyway, the prices of hotels here in Itlay can vary a lot depending on exactly when you'll be here. The hotel I stayed in for Carnevale in Venice was 150 euro per night the 1st weekend of the festival, 400 euro the 2nd weekend and 80 euro after Carnevale ended. It's up to 140 euro now and will rise as the tourist season picks up.

You can check this site for prices on the dates you're interested in being in Rome: http://www.venere.com/italy/rome/ . The hotel Romano is often a good trade off between price and location, but there are some periods where all the hotels are expensive. It's right across the street from the Forum. http://www.venere.com/hotels/rome/hotel-…

You can walk around the ancient area for free. Prices to get into places depend on where you're from EU citizens can get into the Colosseum for free. Others can get in for 12 euro and the ticket also gets you into the Pallatine Hills area and the Forum area.

I am becoming vegan, but I do not want to gain weight. HELP?

2010-12-22T09:52:00.000-08:00

Hello everyone,
I am turning vegan due to personal health reasons. But after researching a general vegans diet ive noticed alot of their foods are high in fat. I am scared that I will gain weight. I would love to hear of any tips from vegan themselves or good substitutes for foods that I can no longer eat! Also any daily diets that vegans can give to me!
Thanks guys
Any Vegan information will be appreciated!
Bella

Answer on I am becoming vegan, but I do not want to gain weight. HELP?

You will not gain weight if anything you will lose weight!
I just sent you an email on all sorts of vegan info :)
There is a way to be an unhealthy vegan, like only eating french fries, which are vegan if not fried in lard which they rarely are, or only eating vegan desserts and breads and pastas.
Here is the email I sent you:
Of course!
Going vegan is the best thing I've done for my health and personal being. I do it for my health as well for my love for animals.
As a vegan, we are often told that we can't get enough protein that you get from meat and dairy, this is a total myth!
I don't know if you drink milk on a daily basis or not or if it's in your fridge, but there are plenty of milk substitutes out there that are delicious and 100% vegan.
Soy, rice, almond, hemp, and oat milk. I drink almond milk, it has more calcium and vitamin D than milk does and it has antioxidants and vitamin E.
Check out this link for more information:
http://www.silkpurealmond.com/#a=3;r=1
Protein is found in ample amounts in the following foods:
Sprouts (55% of the calories in sprouts are calories from protein)
Nuts (20% " ")
Green leafy vegetables (35 to 50% " ")
Other vegetables
Grains
Fruits
Beans
Tofu and other meat substitutes like veggie burgers
Soy cheese and yogurts
I would reccomend you take a vitamin supplement with Vitamin B12, because that is only found in animal based products. Thats really the only thing you need to worry about not getting, and it can be found in pill form very easily.
I found that when I first went vegan, I was craving anything sweet, like chocolate & desserts, since before that was all desserts that contain dairy products, so I was having withdrawals!
Little did I know that vegans can have dessert too! And chocolate!
Here is a link with plenty of easy vegan dessert recipes:
http://www.chooseveg.com/vegan-dessert-r…
Cocoa powder is completely vegan, so it is easy to work that into your desserts with sugar and still get that same effect. I have made the chocolate pudding on that recipe list and it is to die for!! I also made the banana cake and rice pudding.
The best cheese substitute that I have found is Daiya, it tastes like real cheese! But it is 100% vegan, here is a link:
http://www.daiyafoods.com/
As for butter, I've tried several vegan butters but the best one in my opinion is Earth Balance, its good on anything you would normally put butter on and its great for baking.
http://www.earthbalancenatural.com/

Being vegan is a healthy, positive step that a person can take to improve their health, take a stand and change the world.
I hope this has helped and if you have any further questions I would be more than happy to help! I have been vegan now for 6 months, before that I was vegetarian for two years. I plan to stay vegan for a very long time :)

God Bless and Happy veganism!

Am I the only one who feels this way?

2010-12-01T13:45:00.000-08:00

Am I the only one who thinks it's okay to lose weight without people pestering you about how thin you've become? I mean, what's wrong with wanting to be thin? People ridicule fat people all the time, so why wouldn't sensitive people decide to get thin to avoid being ridiculed? This controversy is weird. We don't want to see overweight people because we think they're disgusting. But at the same time we get scared when people feel determined to eat less, get active, and lose weight. Or is it jealousy? We don't want others to look their best? We don't want them to look young and healthy? Yes, being thin makes you look young, isn't that a good thing? I don't understand why some clinics try to shove food into people's bodies all in the name of trying to get them to gain weight. But then you see all these ads in the media advertising weight loss. I'm not saying that people with eating disorders shouldn't be treated, but what shocks me is that the so-called nurses who treat those slim "anorexic" patients are fat asses themselves, like eww. What are they trying to say? That their bodies are more healthy?

Answer on Am I the only one who feels this way?

Well first, no you aren't the only one that shares such an opinion -- of course.

There is nothing wrong with desiring to be thin, especially with a concern for health and well being.

Fat, sensitive people, as you say -- do get thin for a number of reasons among them ceasing the comments -- however it isn't quite so easy and cut and dry. There are many pre-dispositions, medical conditions, environment factors and so on that prevent one from being in the socially acceptable range of 'body fat'. Some people can only healthily become so thin.. genetics play a huge role in this. Of course in America we have an epidemic of people who just eat poorly, lack exercise, and stay fat and unhealthy. This is due to our 'fast food', and social acceptability of the average 'overweight' person because of the sheer majority of such. Men get away with it more than women, as with most cosmetic things -- but not entirely of course.

We don't want to see people overweight for more than just our own visual appeal. I personally like to see someone thin down for their health benefit, to see their own psychological lifting and so on. I won't pretend I am above everyone else and look at thing strangers all day and feel extra good -- I, like most, think nothing of it.

Some people get scared , some are indifferent, and some are inspired -- the fear is from potential jealously and often self image issues of our own. Insecurities if you will.

Some don't want others at their best.. at all different levels. We know it is an inappropriate or 'rude' thought to have,.. but honestly most people want others to look worse so they have a better chance of measuring up to them or surpassing. Which, again, is a negative attitude -- but most of us share it on some level.

Thin can help you look more youthful, but being overly thin often has an aging effect. Being young is a good thing, looking young is only good to those who desire it -- not everyone wants to look younger than they are.. though it is a very common vanity.

The clinics making people with eating disorders, eat -- Well, it is their responsibility, healthy, and what they are paid to do. If they didn't do this they would very quickly be ineffective and unable to maintain a reputation for future business.

As for the nurses or even doctors being overweight themselves and treating people for similar problems -- well this logic is always flawed. Everyone is hypocritical on some level with their advice or 'demand'/'request' of someone other than themselves.. whether it be professional or non. Just because someone is or does something doesn't mean it is the right thing, or best. Further it doesn't keep said person from understanding and knowing the truth about what IS the right or best thing (most optimal).

This applies to cops who break the law, corrupt judges, politicians, religious leaders, etc. Do as I say not as I do is something everyone on this planet would 'practice' knowingly or not many times throughout their lives.

How these people deal, or live with their obvious or not so obvious hypocritical nature is likely very individualistic. In the case of the doctor/nurse many probably feel no effect -- either numb to it, or likely feel empowered above their patients and therefore the same rules do not apply to them because they aren't "sick" or they feel 'fine'.. etc.

Thin, in and of itself is just an adjective and what our society considers right. Technically it is not healthy.. there are many unhealthy thin people. Though thin is more commonly attributed to health than non for very rational and some irrational reasons.

Is there a village in Alaska called Drake?

2010-11-28T04:05:00.000-08:00

Okay, I know that Drake I would like to find out about is supposedly in southeastern Alaska, and it shouldn't be too far from Ketchikan. There should also be an airport fairly close. Does this village actually exist?

Answer on Is there a village in Alaska called Drake?

I used to live in Ketchikan and never heard of Drake.
There is a town called Kake. It's closer to Petersburg than Ketchikan and I traveled there in a seaplane.There is a town closer to Ketchikan, called Craig.
There are very few towns in Southeast Alaska that have airports. They are all on the map unless they are very new private airports, such as those owned by a private fishing lodge.
Someone has argued that Sir Francis Drake came to Alaska, but most people dispute this. They claim that he came to Prince of Wales Island, which is near Ketchikan. There is an atlas of southeastern Alaska by Stephen Hilson that lists all the abandoned towns and shipwrecks on the map. If this is really important to you, that may be a good resource to look at. You may also be able to find older maps at the Alaska State Library and in their online digital archives, called vilda.
Another resource for you would be the Dictionary of Alaska Place Names by Donald J. Orth.
Good Luck! I hope that you find what you are looking for.

What should i do to maintain my health or body?

2010-11-20T23:37:00.000-08:00

my health doesn't increase even if i have a diet of more nutrition.

Answer on What should i do to maintain my health or body?

Keep trying to eat right, but add it some cardio. If thats not your thing, you should try Yoga... I use to be a skeptic about yoga, but it really does get you fit and its not hard on the body at all!

Is the Italy Saver Pass subject to the steep supplemental fee? How much can it run? e. g, Florence-Rome,80 E+?

2010-11-09T12:51:00.000-08:00

80 euro for 2 people + supplemental fee of ? =?

Answer on Is the Italy Saver Pass subject to the steep supplemental fee? How much can it run? e.g, Florence-Rome,80 E+?

The supplemental fees here in Italy used to be quite high, but were reduced some months ago. The supplement depends on the type of train you take. A regional train doesn't require any supplement. Intercity trains will cost 3 euro each for the supplement. The fast trains cost 10 euro per person for the supplement. See: http://www.eurail.com/eurail-reservation… . The train I was on last night was fairly full, but you could still get tickets right up to the time of departure.

Without the pass, a ticket is 16 euro on the regional train, 26.50 on an Intercity train, or 39.90 euro on the fast trains in 2nd class. However, you can get up to 60% off on the fast train tickets for buying in advance (30 days for 60%, less with fewer days advance) or you could have a return ticket in a single day for 35% off.

Is 6 days enough in Italy for a honeymoon?

2010-11-03T19:48:00.000-07:00

Planning on going in July, and we only have 6 days to spare. is 3 nights rome, 2 nights venice enough?

And any recommendations for where we should stay and what we should do?

Answer on Is 6 days enough in Italy for a honeymoon?

I spent 10 days in Italy, and it's never going to be "enough"! Italy is such a beautiful country with incredible art and museums and shopping and sightseeing. (Oh, did I mention great food?)

In Rome, be sure to see the Sistine Chapel & the Vatican, Trevi Fountain, the Spanish Steps (great shopping nearby), and the Colliseum.

In Venice, see St. Mark's and the Ponte di Rialto (Rialto Bridge), then wander and get lost for as long as you can and take an ultra-touristy gondola ride, just for the romance of it!

Why does she do this? Please help?

2010-10-30T16:30:00.000-07:00

So there's this girl I really like, and I've asked about her on here before and people mostly seemed to think she liked me too. We talked the day away on Sunday on facebook. I mean hell she tagged me in two of her status updates that day alone. She didn't talk to me the past three days, but I put that out of my head since she wasn't on facebook at all of monday. Then yesterday she's on, whenever we are both on she usually immediately starts a conversation. But it didn't happen yesterday, I mean she was logging on and off and just logged off all together after a while. But the thing is, whenever we see each other she always looks at me. Like everyday at lunch when I walk into the cafeteria I am greeted by her eyes, I came to lunch early yesterday and I saw her always turning her body around to look at the entrance to see if I've come in yet. Then she see's me and looks over at my table every now and again. Passed by her outside today I was with a group of friends, (boys and girls) and she walks out of her classroom and looks at me. Then she dropped something, bent over to pick it up and looked at me again and took off. I tried texting her yesterday to no reply. And today at lunch I get into the line thats right in front of her table. She looked at me as I entered the line, and when I was right in front of her she didn't seem to look up even once, I think I caught one or two more glances toward my table and one more after lunch outside. Now the other thing is I've told her I liked her about 2 weeks ago, all she said was "oh its fine" Asked her to a dance too, she told me she couldn't because of scars. I'm ready to just give up on her. But I really don't want to. Please help?

Answer on Why does she do this? Please help?

I think you're right to give up on this one. She ignores you, she's hung up on something and won't go out with you (did she mean physical or emotional scars?). Where's the benefit to YOU here? Girls will stare, it happens. Look back at someone that actually likes you. Good luck!

Answer on Help with best friends that hate each other?

Don't sit with anyone.
If she's bitchy, you can either avoid or just be hi bye friends. its not worth your saliva talking to bitchy people. OR you can focus on her good points, and don't think about her bad side! :D

What music do you think my daughter would like?

2010-10-16T00:42:00.000-07:00

She is 11, and doesn't like most of the disney stuff, especially Selena Gomez, she also dislikes Taylor Swift. She likes Paramore, Skillet, Flyleaf, Daughtry, Ke$ha, Three Days Grace, Bring Me The Horizon, and sometimes Demi Lovato. She wants to find some music like any of these, especially Bring Me The Horizon because she wants to find some more 'screamo' to listen to. Thanks,

Answer on What music do you think my daughter would like?

Escape The Fate, Alexis On Fire, Secondhand Serenade, Nevertheless, Mariana's Trench, Boys Like Girls, Faber Drive, All Time Low, Billy Talent , Stereos, etc.

Some of those bands aren't screamo, but see if your daughter likes it !
I like her taste by the way. :)

"the 7 day diet plan"does this work?

2010-10-07T14:31:00.000-07:00

is it ok if i eliminate the soup n eat all the other things mentioned in the diet..i dont like soups...i need to lose weight in 15 days..i know its not healthy but i am going to start a healthy diet after 15 days..its very important for me to look my best on that day..the reviews about this diet are very good but i want to know if this will work without soup included....

Answer on "the 7 day diet plan"does this work?

See..From what i've heard from experts losing weight at such a rapid speed will only lose "water weight" and not fat. Therefore, as soon as you stop the diet all the weight you lost will be gained back. So this is only good if you want for short term but for long term healthiness and weight loss you need a slow and steady diet. So the flab will still be there even if you have completed this diet..and I also heard there are alot of side effects.

You have serious self-esteem issues. This is not normal behavior. You need to leave him now. If you can't understand why, go see a therapist. Trust me, just leave him.

What are Jinns exactly made up of?

2010-08-30T16:20:00.000-07:00

I know the Quran says they are made from smokeless fire. Now what exactly is this smokeless fire? Some people concluded that it could be plasma. But these days, I am beginning to think that it is the same element we see in the sky during thunderstorm. The light we see looks like fire, but does not give off smoke. We all know that satan is a Jinn. Many illuminati celebrities try to show his power by drawing a lightning bolt on their face as a part of makeup. You can watch lady gaga in the just dance video or David bowie on google to know it. Even picachu, japanese anime/video game character has its tail drawn like lightning bolt. An ex satanist in a lecture said it is a symbolism of satan. Whats your take on this? Do you think this smokeless fire is the same as the particles found in the light of the thunder?

Answer on What are Jinns exactly made up of?

Salam Alaykum..

Jinn are one of the creation of Almighty Allah. Almighty Allah stated in Sura Rehman ; in verse [55:15] "And the jinns We created from a smokeless flame of fire".

According to my research, Jinns are made from some kind of Photons or some thing more beyond then what science have on their spectrum because As Allah Almighty said that We have made the jinns from the smoke less fire, and we all know that fire is made from photons or rays of different frequencies emitted when charged electrons jump from higher orbit to lower one. So the Jinns are made up of some kind of rays which our science is still handicap to discover it. And there are infinitive proofs and incidents that Jinns do exists in this world and they do live with us from which we are unaware.

They have exquisite and elegant bodies like thick smoke. They also have the nature to mold them selves according to the place e.g. like water acquires the shape of the container.

They are not like human beings in appearance because as Almighty Allah has mentioned in the Holy Quran that, " the jinns We created from a smokeless flame of fire", so there is a question does fire has any posture.

They have tall heights ( e.g. 15 feet but it varies as which species they belong to), their eyes are like unripe mango shape with iris like cat eyes and etc.

When the Jinns are made out of fire and fire is invisible as according to my first point, so that is a very logical reason that we can't see them. They have different sect, races, casts and tribes as well like Human however human beings are all alike in their structure on the contrary Jinns have different species which are different in their structure e.g. some jinns live in seas and rivers

The female Jinni, after their age of puberty, can bear children after every three month. They can give birth 40 jinns at a time. So guess how rapidly they reproduce every year. More interestingly the Jinn's child can walk after one hour of his/her birth.

They can move very fast let me give an example; they can travel around the world in a flip of an eye. If you read Sura Al-Naml you will find lots of things their about jinns too.

They have different natures with different level of understanding, every jinns does not have common sense. They will do what they are told to do, nothing more or less. They also don't have patience's like Humans. They are always in hastiness and hurry.

Their are two main groups of Jinns, of different belief and ethics, one of them are Holy Jinns (Sunni Muslim Jinns) and others are Evil Jinns. The Holy Jinns does not harm any one at all unless someone does not molest them and they keep them selves busy in the worship of Almighty Allah and pray Durood on His Holy Prophet Mohammad sallal laahu alaihi wasallam On the opposite side the Evil Jinns vex and do harm to people. Let's not go in so much detail at the moment.

Yes there is interaction between Jinns and the human bodies. There is a huge logic behind this. Yes Jinns can perform physical work and the most bright example of this is Jinns are the Ummat (nation/followers) of Prophet Sulaiman a.s. And Jinns used to carry Sulaiman's r.a. throne, we think this is a very logical proof of Jinns doing physical work. And this interaction is still there in 21st century. To find out more about Jinns contact us and discover more.

Is this a healthy meal plan?

2010-08-30T00:05:00.000-07:00

I am trying to keep my weight of 95 pounds stable with a 1,000 cal. - 1,500 cal. diet. Would this example meal plan be healthy for one day (it is approximately 1,050 calories)?

Breakfast: 1/2 cup cooked quinoa in 1 cup of coconut milk
Snack: 1 apple and kale smoothie
Lunch: 1 slice of ezekiel bread w/ 1 mashed banana and peanut butter
Snack: 1 cup of blueberries in 1 cup of coconut milk
Dinner: 1 artichoke (no dip)
(Of course, I'll also be drinking water between meals.)

Additional details:
I am vegan, and I take vegan B12 and Iron supplements.
I am 5'2, so 95 pounds is a healthy weight for me (perhaps slightly underweight).
I am not trying to lose weight; I am trying to maintain my current weight / gain weight.
I am currently very inactive, so I will not not be burning many calories. However, I will increase my calories when I become active again.
If your answer is "not healthy," could you please explain why and how I could improve it? More protein? More variety?

Please, no rude comments. Thank you!

Answer on Is this a healthy meal plan?

It looks like a healthy start. There is a good mix of veggies & fruits!
I'd say the problem is the low calories & the high saturated fat content. I don't know your age, but for any age group with your stats, 1050 cals is too low. Even if you sit on the couch all day, your basal metabolic rate will burn more than 1050.

As far as the food, coconut milk is great! But it is loaded with saturated fat & has basically no calcium. I would substitute soy milk (loaded with calcium & B12 & almost fat-free) into your snack.
I would definitely add protein into your diet. My favorites are black beans with salsa & nutritional yeast, tofu cooked with kale and black bean sauce (no rice).

If you drank soy milk & ate nutritional yeast, you wouldn't need to take B12 supplements! 1 cup of Silk soymilk = 1/2 your daily B12 needs, 1 TBS of nutritional yeast = 60% your daily need!

Hope this helps! Here is a link on basal metabolic rate. I really think you should reconsider your calorie intake.

What were two reasons for Rome's success in expanding its power across italy?

2010-08-27T03:56:00.000-07:00

Global history please help me.

Answer on What were two reasons for Rome's success in expanding its power across italy?

The most important feat in Rome's success in conquering Italy was its conquest of the Samnites, (in the Abruzzi and Molise regions) their greatest foe in this. This was facilitated by a treaty the Samnites signed that was especially disadvantageous to the Samnites, concerning a boundary along the Larii river.

Rome's further conquests were facilitated by a system of roads leading from Rome to its foederati - so called "allies" - in the rest of Italy. These allowed Rome to send troops to this areas quickly and efficiently.

Her rule was ironically consolidated by a rebellion, which led to the Roman Civil War, also called the Social War. The only way Rome was able to win this war (led by Samnites) was by offering the foederati what they asked for, which was full rights as Roman citizens.
Italy emerged from this war, more united than ever.

How can I get skinny?

2010-08-12T02:06:00.000-07:00

I'm not fat, but I think I'm on the way, like my legs are getting big and so are my arms and my stomach is huge. I used to be skinny so I really wanna get skinny before the holidays are over, which is in about 5 weeks. It is almost Christmas too so I really want to get skinny. HOW!? i need a planned out diet.

Answer on How can I get skinny?

go wheat free. No pasta, pizza, bread and so on. And no food
after 7 p.m. People achieve marvellous results with it. Depending on
your initial weight, you can drop upwards from 20 pounds a month. If
you don't eat wheat then you don't eat all those sticky, fatty goey
cakes, you don't eat junk food, and you don't eat biscuits. But your
diet is still balanced. It costs nothing, and you do not have to
calculate points or to buy special meals or plans.

So i'm going to korea for a family trip and i noticed they have an age system so how exactly does it work?

2010-08-11T17:22:00.000-07:00

For instance my birthdate is january 20th 1993 so do I add 1 year or 2?

Answer on So i'm going to korea for a family trip and i noticed they have an age system so how exactly does it work?

One's age changes on the calendar year, meaning Jan. 1, not your birthday. Think of it as "calendar years of birth" when determining age. For example, if someone was born December 1, 2001, they would be age "1" for only a month, then turn "2" on January 1, 2002, "3" on Jan. 1 '03, "4" on Jan. 1, '04 and so on.

For those using western ages, it is pretty simple. Take your western age, and go up by one year, but on Jan. 1 before your birthday date. Since you are Jan. 20 you are only going to have to change your age 20 days in advance of what is usual. For people born later in the year, it can seem confusing at first, so for example, if someone will turn 18 in 2011, but have not yet had there birthday yet, they are still 19 for the entire year, even though for part of the year they are 17 in the west and 18 after there birthday in the west.

However, if you look western, either by race or style, Koreans normally assume you mean the western age when they ask you. So basically, when answering in English your age is still "eighteen" to Koreans, however, if you want to be fun, you can answer in Korean, which then you say "???" or "Yeol-ahop" which means "19" (which you would have also said from Jan. 1-19 this year as well.)

Also, note, for public records, Koreans actually list their age by the western standard (calculating age by years from your birthdate) that is used in the U.S. and just about everywhere else in the world; the old way is done more for traditional purposes in conversation, not as legal matters.

Note, there has been a big trend in Asian countries to do away with this method of calculating age (also note that originally the lunar new year was the marker not the western year), but except for Korea and some parts of rural China, it is all but gone for except with the oldest generations. Part of this is because, while originally being thought older meant wisdom, most people prefer to be thought younger (like who wants to turn 40 earlier when you can wait more than a year!)

How much does the people to people student ambassador thing cost?

2010-07-31T02:48:00.000-07:00

I got a letter today in the mail saying i am invited to go to france, italy, and greece for summer 2010. How much does it usually cost and is it worth it? Because i hear it's a lot of money but it's quite worth it. The letter also says to enter the pin code for the meeting in november. so how much do they cost?

Answer on How much does the people to people student ambassador thing cost?

It costs from $5,000 to $8,000 and up. Very expensive and, in my opinion, NOT worth it for the short time you are gone. That same money will pay for the larger part of an entire YEAR abroad with an organization such as AFS or YFU.

It is possible for your family to go, but they also have to pay the same amount.

If you do decide to try it, and do it with payments, under NO circumstances miss a payment!

What Are His Best Songs?
What Are Some Of His Love Songs?
What Are Some Of His Best Lyrics & What Song Are They From?

Answer on DRIZZY DRAKE SONGS(:?

Drake Sucks. He has terrible delivery and lyrics. He only makes music for the money. Has some of the most pathetic lines in hip-hop history and hangs out with the likes of Nicki Minaj and Gudda Gudda.
My favourite Drake songs are those last few seconds of each song where the music already faded out and nothing but silence plays.
His best songs are those last few seconds of each song where the music already faded out and nothing but silence plays
His love songs are laughable. "Oh Na Na? What's my name" Oh please.
His best lyrics are when he's not talking and they are from the last few seconds of each song where the music already faded out and nothing but silence plays.

Atkins: Reverse Atkins possible?

2010-07-02T16:02:00.000-07:00

Atkins Diet suggest start from Phase I (well it gives flexibility to start from any phase) with eating 20g net carbs a day. For instance, I eat like so much carbs per day now (I plan to start Atkins in a week), wouldn't this be a drastic shock for my body to switch from a high-carb diet as of now to a very very low carb diet in a week from now?

Rather than this, what if I gradually reduce my net carb intake by say 20g per day i.e. say if I eat 200g carbs per day now, let me start with 180g per day for one week, then 2nd week: 160g of net carbs and 3rd week: 140g and so on. This is similar to Atkins in reverse.

Do you think this will work? How fast and how slow? What extra do I have to do to achieve approx. 50 lbs weight loss (I currently weigh: 200 lbs, 5'7 tall and BMI: 31) if I follow this reverse Atkins as compared to the regular Atkins?

I am scared if I go on the Atkins a week from now, I might get low BP and won't be able to concentrate on work, daily activities and might collapse due to weakness etc. Atkins does mention people do struggle for the first 2 weeks of Induction - I hope nothing drastic happens to me.

Answer on Atkins: Reverse Atkins possible?

It's not letting me answer your other question & your calorie plan is too low - answer added below

The whole purpose of Atkins program is to quickly get past the carb addiction. After 3 days, Atkins program creates a natural appetite suppression that makes making healthy choices *so* much easier. I recommend planning to overeat the first 3 days with low carb choices - eat SO much you won't feel deprived. The first day isn't bad, but the second & third day, your body is driving you to eat. I ate devilled eggs every time I wanted *something*. I recommend starting the program on a Friday, that gives you Saturday & Sunday (the 2 worst days) to recuperate at home & by Monday, you should be fine.

Carbs create cravings for more carbs. Anyone who gains 30# or more is highly sensitive to carbs & more than likely insulin resistant. Lowering carbs, usually triggers the bodies demand for carbs. No one said the first few days weren't hard, but the body adjusts.

I recommend dissolving half teaspoon each of UNrefined salt, potassium & ascorbic acid (vit.C) in 6-8 oz of water & drink every morning to replenish electrolytes. This should alleviate fatigue, headaches, dizziness or constipation caused by dehydration. Make sure you drink lots of water.

The first 6 weeks of Atkins program, you have once in a lifetime chance to maximize fat loss (if you keep calories high enough & don't cheat with carbs)

Unfortunately, anyone who accumulates over 30# of excess fat is more than likely insulin resistant. Long term ingestion of highly refined carbs "burn out" the insulin receptors on muscle cells, so calories go directly to fat cells, leaving muscle cells screaming for nutrition. Exercise forces muscles to accept glucose out of the bloodstream without the need for insulin.

Most people get obese because their bodies just can't process carbs any more. They become insulin resistant & carbs go straight to fat cells. As healthy as fruit may be, it just doesn't promote fat loss. The body won't release fat stores until the blood stream is free of insulin. In someone insulin resistant, the insulin response is too sensitive & produces too much insulin.

Your calorie plan is too low, add these 2 items to give you more calories & needed nutrition & fiber. You need the additional potassium from the avocado for awhile & fiber from the ground flax seeds. Remember, high calorie levels don't matter, you could double your calories & be fine - only low calories matter.

Your plan looks pretty good except you need to eat protein/fats with any carbs (vegs) & not separately this will minimize the body's reaction, make sure you add a fatty dressing (mayo, ranch, caesar, etc.) to the salad also. (maybe you could have 2-3 drumsticks & a cup (or 2) of salad at 10-1-4-7pm for a total of 8-12 drumsticks?) Add butter to your scrambled eggs & go lightly on the cream in eggs. You really are only allowed 1.5 ounces of cream/sour cream a day but since you aren't accessing your 3-4 ounces of cheese daily, it should be fine. Your plan looks like it will get boring quickly - check the recipe sections for more ideas. Devilled eggs & cream cheese on celery were my saving grace during the first few days.

Every day you should be eating these 2 items. If you need additional fat or calories, you can add a tablespoon of virgin coconut oil to the ground flax seed cereal. I highly recommend virgin coconut oil for people needing quick energy - coconut oil is the only fat that is converted to quick energy like a carb.

Half an avocado mashed with 2 ounces of mayo seasoned with cayenne & eaten with pork rinds or celery.

Ground flax seed (4 Tbsp) 1/4 cup water, artificial sweetener, mix in a raw egg - let sit 10 min. to absorb liquid, put some cream cheese in the middle & nuke 2 min for daily fiber needs.

How different is Austria from Italy and Switzerland?

2010-07-02T00:13:00.000-07:00

i went to italy and switzeralnd last summer for a holiday. This year am planning austria, czech, hungary and may be germany. Are these places going to be similar to Italy or Switzerland. Pls advise. Thx

Answer on How different is Austria from Italy and Switzerland?

You probably noticed a fair difference in the culture between Italy and Switzerland - even if you were in the mountainous areas of Italy. First off, language is a big difference, and then everything from house construction to food can be different.

Austria will be more similar to Switzerland as there are many German-speakers in Switzerland, and German is the language in Austria. Despite that, there are numerous differences, starting with the food. Austrian cuisine is a mixture of influences, but you will probably find it to be closer to German cuisine than anything else.

Furthermore, it depends where in Austria you are going. Vienna is a completely unique city with different architecture and sites that you will have seen anywhere else.

I think the short answer is that it will be similar enough that you will not feel like you are completely lost in the country, yet it will be different enough that you will be glad you decided to explore yet another country.

Have a great trip!
