Need fashion advice! help!?

I'm going to a semi formal school dance in march and i need a dress. I was thinking about this one:


http://www.gap.com/browse/producbt.do?cid=5733%26amp;pid=585677%26amp;vid=1





bis it a little too summery for march? i would probably wear a cardigan with it, at least to and from the dance, what color?





also what shoes would go well with it? i am fairly tall, so some sort of flats would be better than heels





thx !Need fashion advice! help!?
It's cute! I don't think you would need a cardigan (unless its cold where you live), because it's already pretty conservative. I like it a lot, would you wear shoes similar to those in the picture? Because I think the right pair of heals would make your outfit perfect. Good luck at your dance!Need fashion advice! help!?
link doesn't work :(
Well your link doesnt work =(





But maybe this one:

You could try something like that.


Maybe alittle bit more open (if you want)





Pink,red, and black are mostly the main colors.





If you want to be unique you could try green or yellow maybe blue.





High heels is all I can say.


Maybe something like:

I need advice/help?

alright so o want to upgrade my PC so it could be faster and more efficient but i really don't don't know anything about the different hardwares and whats the best deals out there





so im coming to you guys to help me out and give me advice on what i should look forI need advice/help?
If you are running vista switch to Ubuntu or XP .. you will see the difference :)I need advice/help?
the quickest, easiest and probably most noticeable upgrade is to upgrade your RAM, this is very easy, if u open up ur computer u wil see two green ';sticks'; a couple of inches long, take those out then have a look what MB they are if they are both 512MB each you could probably do with 2 x 1 GB RAM this would give your computer a really good boost and if u want to go all out get 2 x 2GB RAM thats the most i would recommend though. hope this helped. :)

  • Relationship advice....Help?!?

    So my boyfriend %26amp; i have been dating almost 8 months now..We fight maybe a little too much but we always find a way to work through things. Lately things have been different. He hasn't really been acting like himself. We don't say i love you as much or talk to each other on the phone as much as we use to. Hes always with his friends and its like he doesn't have as much time to talk to me. We use to talk sweet to each other and do cute things but now its like it doesn't matter. whenever we do hang alls we do is sit around and its so boring. things really changed and i don't know what to do...anyone have any advice as of what i should do to maybe change things?Relationship advice....Help?!?
    He might have lost interest in you. You might want to talk this over with him to see what is going on? I have been in a relationship where this kind of thing happened. He told me that we are not right for each other, because we don't have much in common. My thing is, how are you supposed to find out what you have in common if you say ';ok'; to everything I ask. Anyway, that is what it sounds like is going on.





    I hope you figure it out and good luck!

    EBay Advice, Help Please?

    Alright, So I had a Nintendo Wii on eBay for for the last 10 days. I have no feedback, because I am new. I got like 11 messages asking about it, and 6 watchers. Nobody placed a bid though. I had the starting bid at 500$ (before you say anything, I researched it and it was below a fair deal for the amount of games, etc)








    Should I start a whole new ad again, but start at .99$, and maybe have a reserve price? Or would a buy now option be best.





    ---


    Additional Info





    Used Wii, 2 controllers, with gloves, Nunchuks, all the wires, boxes, manuals.





    Wifi adapter, 21 games, some VC games, etc etc.


    ---





    Any tips on how it would look appealing to a buyer? I know theres a lot of NEW Wii's for 400, but they only come with Wii play so?EBay Advice, Help Please?
    Split the package up. Put some big hit games with lower marketable games as separate packages. Have the Wii itself, with extra controllers etc...and 1 major blockbuster game as a seperate package.





    Good Luck

    ADHD advice help 2 year old?

    Help me anyone.


    I have an out of control, crazy toddler (2 year old) girl.


    I knew it would come to this stage, ever since she was tiny she would throw tantrums and get angry so easily.


    I do every thing by the book discipline wise, never let her get her own way, never let her assert over us (as parents).


    I know 2 year olds are hard but honestly... she is IMPOSSIBLE.


    Throwing tantrums at least 20 times a day, hurting herself, hitting, kicking etc. She hardly eats, hardly sleeps... shes sending me crazy.


    So I know what people will say... go see the doctor...


    Well I did that, they say ';two year olds are hard, it will pass'; But I was a nanny for 5 years and NEVER in my expereince have a come across such an angry, stubborn and willful child. The Doc has no idea just how bad it is.


    She now has no artificial colours, no sugar, preservatives, and of course wont eat a single thing I make.


    What on earth can I do.... I cant go anywhere, do anything and its not fair on my 1 year old (who is very quiet).ADHD advice help 2 year old?
    your child doesn't have ADHD she is just being a 2yr old.


    plan on having her ';terrible two's'; last well into her three's.


    as a nanny you were taking care of other people's children which usually behave much better around non relatives.


    my advice is to not be so restrictive. allow her to be a child. its ok to give her sugar and junk food as long as its in moderation. taking everything ';yummy'; away is not going to make her eat your food.


    also i believe most dr's/nannies/child professionals...say pick your battles. you say you never let her get what she wants well sometimes that can become a big problem. it sounds like you aren't giving her any room to be herself. this is just one example of what you can do so you don't have a huge battle over the small stuff. (if she wants to pick her own clothes but they never match then get garanimals clothes and no matter what she picks it will match.) or (if she wants a candy bar for dinner then explain that she can have a bite then she has to eat the healthy food then she can have the rest) these are simple ways of what seems to her like you are ';giving in'; but in reality you are getting what you want at the same time.ADHD advice help 2 year old?
    Holy crap. It was my story a few years ago. My daughter is older now but yeah. It is going to be a difficult road my friend. My daughter is EXACTLY that way. Trust me. By the book... ha! Not my child. Won't eat anything I cook. DRIVES ME CRAZY. She is 7. If you figure it out honey please tell me. Just kidding. Just keep on keeping on. Consistency and love. And my child is now being tested for ADHD. She failed the first grade. It is hard to handle the willful ones. Good luck to you.
    I feel you mom.


    I have 4 kids and my 3 yr old son I KNOW is ADHD.


    I am planning to take him to the Dr soon to get him on meds.


    They DO put them on meds that young.


    There's really nothing you can do, trust me.


    At age 3, get some meds and everything will be ok.


    For now though, take a lot of breaks.


    Sitters, date nites... whatever you can do to get a break.
    Ignore the unwanted behavior,and praise the good. Children will do strange things to get attention.
    FIND ANOTHER DOCTOR
    A 2 yr old can not be diagnosed for ADHD, that is too young. I think you just want to take the easy way out %26amp; medicate your child. Two yr olds are hard - they don't listen, they throw tantrums, they're into everything. Really, that's just how they are. Keep trying to show them right from wrong, %26amp; at around 3 they'll slowly grow out of it. Don't be so negative about her %26amp; try to help her learn right from wrong, she' just testing her limits. Since you seem extremely frustrated, maybe you should take some parenting classes. And maybe you should send her to day care for a couple hrs during the day to give yourself a break.
    I really really really doubt that she has ADHD. It sounds to me like she has some sensory issues that no one is picking up. Both my 13 year old and my 3, almost 4 year old have some level of sensory dysfunction. This can cause misbehavior, food aversions, sleep issues and all kind of issues. There are 3 things that I would suggest to you:





    1. Find a book called ';the out of sync child'; and read it





    2. Make note of things like food textures she likes/ dislikes,activities that she seems to enjoy, and any connections between a behavior she enjoys and better behavior afterwards





    3%26gt; call your local early intervention program and ask them to do a developmental eval on both kids. There is a good chance that they will spot something that the doctor did not even think of...





    My own son had a speech delay ( I knew at 18 moths) and my family doc was not aware of the programs available locally , so he told me to give him time...I did and ended up calling EI at 24 months old. I found out that he had a disorder called ';verbal apraxia'; and was a full 9-12 months behind in his speech. He checked out OK in the other 5 areas they checked. EI is a federally funded program so it is free/low cost regardless of household income. The local WIC clinic or health department should be able to give you contact info.
    set up a marble jar you need a SMALL jar or bowl and marbles, for every good thing, add 1-5 marbles, for every tantrum take out 1-3,





    tell her to stop, then count, everytime you get to ten, take out a marble, do this til she stops, if she hits, take out 3 for everytime.





    when she gets a full jar, buy her a toy or ice cream/ whatever she likes. doll/ect.





    it helps to place the reward (or a picture of it) next to the jar to remind her that its her prize





    **let her have a treat every once and a while maybe a piece of candy after an uninterupted by a tantrum meal , and dont lean straight to medicine, it can hurt her later
    ADHD typically is not diagnosed before 5 (school age). Most cases aren't caught until well into early elementary school (3rd or 4th grade). So the likelihood of any good physician saying anything but 'It's the Terrible Twos and she'll outgrow it' is slim to nil. Sounds like you have a strong-willed child - so do I. Go buy Dr. James Dobson's book 'The New Strong Willed Child'. My parents used the original 'The Strong Willed Child', the new one has been updated. It focuses on bending the will without breaking the spirit.
    i dont know what you do for punishment, but i truly think a couple good swats on the (diaper padded) butt can make a huge difference. my 2 yo girl is horrible also, she yells no and hits and says bad mama, never listens, etc... well, once i decided to spank, i would say, dont do that or i will spank you... then i ask, do you want me to spank you, she says no, i start to count to 3, and by the time i get to 2, she stops her behavior and says ';all done, no spank';, and whats really cool, is now she respects what i say, she listens, and she can now count to 3 herself. we also lock her in her room during a fit and say you can come out when you stop crying and being bad, and usually within 5 mins, she is fine. hope it helps... ps- i never spank when she is crying out of fear or lonliness, only misbehavior..... also, if i were you, which im not, i would let the girl have some good eats, maybe its just because she never gets treated with anything except healthy stuff, we all need a little bad in life, to enjoy the good. good luck dude :)
    I had problems with my daughter as well and the book, ';Positive Discipline for the First Three Years'; by Jane Nelsen turned everything around. Punishment and harsh discipline cause children to want to act out. Seriously, just try her tactics (really try them) for a week and you'll see a difference with your daughter. If you think your daughter is more mature for her age you can read ';Positive Discipline for Preschoolers'; or the book entitled simply ';Positive Discipline'; both by Jane Nelsen. These books give you more discipline options for a child who can reason more. You daughter definitely sounds more stubborn that most kids, but you can change this without medication just by taking a different approach! Also, the other post was right, children generally act better with caregivers. I take this as a compliment - your daughter trusts you enough and feels comfortable enough with you to let her emotions out around you! Good Luck!
    They have a medicine for that.


    my little brother is on it.


    It's called ridlin i believe.


    He has a rather strong dose because he


    can be so out of control sometimes.


    but you have to be patient.


    %26amp;%26amp; learn to ignore certain things.


    i know that your baby


    %26amp;%26amp; yuu want to give her what she wants


    but you cant.


    you have to ignore her tantrums.


    but when she does good.


    treat her like a queen.


    fulfill her wildest dreams


    %26amp;%26amp; let her know that if she continues to be qood.


    she'll get more treatments like that..


    hope i helped.
    Read books by the following author: Dr. Doris Rapp, and this would be nearly any of her books, online used booksites. Although you don't give her sugar, she may be very sensitive to something else in her diet or her environment. It could be wheat, milk, or something else. The books can help you determine what it could be, but please keep in mind that normal allergy tests won't help and are a waste of money for foods, although they may help with pollens, molds, etc. ADHD children are very sensitive to many things in their environment: sights, sound, sensory as touch on the skin, how much they have to do, light, dark. They have a more sensitive reaction to things, so it can be very difficult for them to filter things out: thus the reaction to lots of things. We removed peanut products from our son's diet, which made a huge difference in the tantrums for him, personally. Our son was difficult from babyhood. He had colic, lots of ear infections, didn't sleep, irritable, etc. But, he ended up having a great sense of humor and smart and continued with his education after high school. Try to accentuate the possitive. Try to make sure she gets enough protein and does not miss any meals. Smile as much as you are able and find interesting things for her to do that are challenging, talk to her a lot, read to her, lots of hugs where tolerated, etc. Let her run outside in the sprinklers, ride bikes, take walks, anything out in the sun. Look up these videos: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fRDpcWZUE鈥?/a>


    Dr. Doris Rapp #2:


    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZzvIq8WIS鈥?/a>


    Remember, you are a good parent, this is a difficult thing to work through, but you will do it. Your child will thank you for sticking to researching what is going on and being patient with her. You will figure out what is causing the problem and things will get better. Look up: Candida and ADHD, Leaky Gut and ADHD, Food sensitivities and ADHD. Also, try adding acidophilous to her diet, or other digestive enzymes.

    im 15 and think i may be pregnant and the father is 18 and we just started going out offically but have been together for almost 5 years what should i do how do i handle this. help please both or our parents will kill usNeed advice help please?
    Find a planned parenthood organization in your community. Call them, make an appointment to go down and they will help you tell your parents and/or make arrangements for your prenatal care. They can also make arrangements for you if you are considering adoption or other options... but please do not have an abortion.Need advice help please?
    You've been together since you were 10 and 13?





    The age difference now is no big deal, but there is a big maturity gap between 10 and 13 (kind of gross!).





    You obviously thought you were ready to have sex but you weren't because you didn't know how to properly protect yourself. You are also very young for sex.





    You need to tell your parents you made a mistake and that you will take responsibility for your actions. And most of all that you are sorry! Obviously no matter what your parents are still going to kill you.
    why dont you talk about the subject with your boyfriend first


    and tell him whats up.


    then you should go and get a home pregnancy kit


    and test to see if your pregnant or not


    then if you are pregnant you have to think of what your going to do and how are you going to break the news to your parents


    if you need anymore advice


    you can send me a message or yahoo instant messanger





    good luck
    well before youworrie yourself wait a few weeks and take a test or go see your gp if your pregnant and want to abort you need to look at some of the things that happes to your unborn child you can get help of job sekers if ur worried about money as for your parents hun its a little late you have to tell them for support else you will onlhy start to show
    Oh god.. that's terrible


    Uhm well I don't think that you should have an abortion because making the kid suffer for your mistake just isn't right. But He can get in a lot of trouble because of the age difference your still a minor. Are you sure you are preg? You should make sure before you get to worked up. I know you said your parents will kill you but maybe try talking to them I think they would be the most help to you at this time.
    Oh lord.


    Here is the problem sweetie. He is 18 and you are 15. This means he is a legal adult, and could be charged with statutory rape! I mean, I hope your parents like him or else he could be in jail
    uh oh...well tell ur parentals u weremadly in love and u had hard core monkey sex and the condom slipped off....then beg for forgivness....oh and he can go to jail since hes 18

    Hi. I got my appendix out on January 8th, and got my period january 9th and it only lasted 4 days. and it usually last 5 or 6 days. Anyways- during that time I was on antibiotics for the appendix, and i'm on birth control as well. I had sex on the 15th, 16th, 17th, and the 18th. Today, I had spotting. brownish, light pink at times. but I already had my period this month. Whats going on? I'm sorry to be asking a question like this, but could I be pregnant.Need advice/help?
    it seem very likey since when you were on teh antibiotics your pill is not effective i will wait a week and retestNeed advice/help?
    No you are not pregnant. It sounds like you are just having your period early because you had a short one before. Sometimes that happens when you have stress to the body like surgery. Or you could be just sore from all the sex.
    AIDS, definitely AIDS.
    its too soon to tell you would probably have to wait until your next period to see if you miss it or not

    Pimples! ADVICE! HELP!?

    I have a lot of pimples, but only on my forehead! I've been using Neutrogena Acne Stress Control! It works great especially making big pimples into small pimples, but it doesn't really make my pimples dissapear!





    So, I badly wanted my pimples to go away! So, I started using a new product! It's called Clean %26amp; Clear Advance--Acne Cleanser! This product, actually makes the white stuff inside my pimples, GONE! But, looking at the reviews from sites, most people say, whoever has Clean %26amp; Clear products, should stop using them because it makes your skin dry out! But whenever I wash my face with Clean %26amp; Clear, it doesn't really dries out my face!





    Should I discontinued clean %26amp; clear??


    Any other suggestions??





    And one more thing, I had my pimples since I was 12, how long does it takes for pimples to go away????Pimples! ADVICE! HELP!?
    Hey alright so i know exactly how you feel. I bought the Clean %26amp; Clear Acne control kit and its amazing. I wash my face in the morning with the wash then before I go to bed I use neutrigina %26amp; then the clean and clear moisturizer. And if i have a big pimple I use the Clean %26amp; Clear fast clearing acne spot thing. So personally, I like clean and clear and it really does work because right now Ive only gotten like one or two pimples occasionally since I switched it. So I say purchase the clean and clear acne control it ($20 %26amp; worth it) and a local drug store (like CVS) and see how it works for you. %26amp; for how long it takes for pimples to go away really depends on the person but they're going to keep coming for a while, how fast a particular pimple goes away depends on your skin. I do not have oily skin so my pimples go away in about 2 days. hope i helped. GOOD LUCK they're such a pain and just cause you to flip out but hey your not alone! (:





    ps- ( some people may tell you NOT to do this but I do when I get a massive pimple ) When you have a huge pimple and you need to gone fast, take a cottenswab and put rubbing alcohol on it and just press it really hard onto the pimple. the pimple will pop (ew) then take 2 more cottenswabs and squeeze the pimple between then and It'll be gone the next day :] Pimples! ADVICE! HELP!?
    If it works, and it doesn't dry your skin out, there's no reason to stop! Just because it doesn't work for some people doesn't mean it doesn't work for you.





    Just make sure it's not harming your skin and you're good to go!





    **Also a tip for getting rid of pimples on your forehead is to stop wearing bangs (if you have them). If you can't do that, just pin them up when you don't care what you look like.





    Luck %26amp; Love


    Teacake
    not to brag but i ahve really nice skin and ive always used NAIVE its a japanese brand i find mine at the local chinese supermarket Ranch 99 iono you can prolly order it online somewhere or they might sell it at macy's or something





    or it could just be genetically good skin and naive doesnt help at all





    but you can try it! ive told other ppl about it and they say it works for them so.....
    Pop them! That ';white stuff'; IS PUS!! That's bad blood. It shouldn't be circulating. That's why your body moved it to the surface, so you could finish the job. Don't let your body re-absorb it, for god's sake!!!
    After having read your question, I now feel the need to end every sentence I type with an exclamation point!
    dont use a product if your skin has a bad reaction





    try exfoliating with salt and warm water for the acne



    I use concealer until they go away
    thats wut i use! try the neterogena face wash!

  • Relationship Advice?Help!!?

    So I met this guy at my 8th grade dance a few months ago, he was really into one of my friends, but now she likes someone and they're going out. I added him on facebook and we started talking a lot, the first day we talked he started flirting a lot, I didn't want to lead him on, but he was really nice and I didn't want to hurt his feelings either. He kept asking what I was doing on weekends and stuff, and I made up excuses, but he sent me a sad smilie and just said ';oh...okay.'; I felt really bad for him so I invited him to a beach party I'll be going to on saturday. He said yes, and acted like it was a date, and started asking me about what I liked and didn't like, then he started calling me ';boo'; I sent a question mark back because I'd just started talking to him and he just said I call everyone boo. He's been texting me all day, and he called me last night. I think we're moving too fast, and I'm only 13 (i'll be fourteen in 9 days tho) and He's 15 turning 16 soon, I'm afraid he's going to want to kiss me, and I'm not ready for that at all! He's not really my type either, but he was so nice I couldn't say no :( Now I don't know what to do, I'm nervous, but since my friends will be there I know there won't be too much pressure, I don't really want a relationship with him, because I'm starting high school, and I won't see a lot of him, we've only really known each other 2 days, and he already seems to think we're boyfriend and girlfreind! I keep making excuses so I don't have to see him without my friends there, and I'm nervous I'll run out of excuses. I don't really want to have a relationship, but he's so sweet it make me want to give him a chance, but at the same time, I don't want him to be my first kiss if I don't really really like him. Is there any way to let him down easy without making it seem like I want to go out with him? I don't think my mom or my grandparents (who live with me) would approve of him, and I really value there opinions. I would really appreciate any advice you could give me!Relationship Advice?Help!!?

    Help with an ex? Someone with honest advice help!!?

    I know i'm going to come off as one of those girls who ask dumb questions that i should already know the answer too. But it's the one thing in my life that i can't get over.


    I dated this great guy for my first two years of college, until we both graduated and he moved back home to Mass(i live in New York) It was great, we were perfect for each other. Our families got along and i really felt he was the one. i was going to move down there and go to school, but he said he didn't think it was going to work out and ended it. Well naturally i was 20 and i turned into the psycho ex - calling, then drunk calling, messaging his friends for info, stalking his facebook and myspace, yes i was that girl. He hasn't spoken to me since the day we ended it. Please note he cried when we broke up...it doesn't make sense.


    Ok so point of the story we have mutual friends and as i'm planning to go visit our friend this summer he ends up talking to her about it and says he is not speaking to me until i pay him back this stupid money i supposedly owe him when he helped me buy a computer (3 years ago!!)


    Could the reason he has cut me out of his life really be over money? and if it is why hasn't he just asked me for it back? I've never heard of any of this before now. I tried messaging him to talk to him he just replies with the amount i owe him and his address. He hasn't dated anyone since and i still think of him every day. I don't know what to do! Help!


    p.s. sorry for the long story.Help with an ex? Someone with honest advice help!!?
    I used to think I was the biggest example of how love is blind, but now I think it's you. after all these years you are still trying to contact him and he is replying with the amount of money he owes! I don't want to offend anyone but it's better to lose a lover than to love a loser.





    You are not the only one having suffered a beak up, break up with no apparent fault of you. There are plenty of people who have suffered the same thing (including me). You are not alone. So open your eyes and realize the worth of you and your genuine love. No matter how much you water a plastic plant it wont bloom flowers. You seem like a nice person so continue to be the way you are and develop positive attributes and creative skills. If you improve yourself for someone else it means you love that person. if you improve yourself for yourself everybody will love you :)Help with an ex? Someone with honest advice help!!?
    Hun, easy as it sounds just give him his money and see what happens. Maybe things can get better. Guys are freaks they care too much about things like that but if you care about him a lot then just pay him and except his flaws.





    GOOD LUCK
    No. He didn't end it because of money. He ended because he wasn't sure about the relationship. If possible, ask him to meet up with you regarding the money and ask him your questions in person.





    You could also ask your friends what his deal is. But don't ever ask them to call him for you. Handle this on your own.





    And sweetheart, do you really want to be with a guy who would behave this way? You say you two graduated from college, so there's a certain amount of maturity that should come along with that. Do yourself a favor, and try your hardest to get over him.

    Boy Advice? Help me please?

    Okay, so I'm thirteen and I've never kissed a guy before or gone on a proper date. There were a few things with a few guys before but those can't really be counted as dating. I really like this guy who's in my class and I'm pretty sure he likes me too because he flirts with me often during break and his friend old me he likes me and stuff. Today me and some friends went to see a movie and I invited him along. We saw the movie, he was flirting the entire time and I was flirting back, we had lots of fun.





    Now, could you please give me some advice on what to do next? I want to go out with him (just the two of us this time). Do I ask him or do I wait for him to ask me? Is there anyway I can get him to ask me? If we do go out what are some tips you could give me? Anything else that may be useful to know? Help? I appreciate all advice. Thank you.Boy Advice? Help me please?
    don't worry you aren't the only one that has never kissed a guy before. Nor have i and i am also 13. But back to your situation. If you really, really like this dude then ask him out. but if you want it to be more original, then wait for him. If you guys do go out, go somewhere romantic like a coffee shop or the movies or maybe even a library. And some tips in the movies, watch a scary movie. hug him if you are scared. Guys love that. I guess it gives them some kind of dominion lol. But i don't know. And i don't really know things that would be useful. well that's all i got. Good luck!Boy Advice? Help me please?
    Well, the best thing is to wait for him. In the meantime, get in touch with his friends and find ways to chat with him. Make it easy chat and let things flow naturally. What things do you have in common? Pets, activities, maybe a class? Start there. You have time on your side.
    hey just wait for him to ask you out if he is already flirting that means his on his way to ask the Q. if you guys go on the date just take it slow at first.. hope it helps and hope you get all the love you deserve
    keep flirting, the guys the one that is SUPPOSED TO ask you out.
    keep talking to him, he might not ask you out on a real date because he is scared.
    wait for him to ask you out
    awe :) well 13's a good age for a first kiss!


    i think that you should ask him out. I know it's tough, but sometimes guys like it when they don't always have to make the first move! i know you're probably thinking ';well how do I ask him out, that's scary!'; but when you guys are talking you could bring up a movie that just came out and ask him if he thinks it sounds good. If he says yes, ask him if maybe he'd like to see it with you! and if he says no, bring up another movie and then ask him! :P





    and remember, when you're hanging out, be yourself. don't be what you think he'd want you to be because many girls do that and many girls never get the second date that way!





    good luck!

    PARTY advice! HELP! best answer 10 points!?

    Okay so im turning 13 and i am thinking out my birthday party. IT is going to be a hollywood themed party. Im not sure what to do. i have a huge house ( 5,600 square ft ) and i have a huge pool we put in two years ago. it is really nice. i was thinking pool party and i would decorate it with holly wood ( already bought the red carpet and everything ) i spent $150 on hollywood stuff but i am willing to spend more.


    idk mabey a hollywood moon bounce. We like america's next top model and makeovers. i don't wanna waste time watching movies either.





    i was thinking loud music ( know any good cheap D.J's?) maybe cheap celebrity impersonators? good party websites?





    i am fine with any idea. PLEASE HELP!PARTY advice! HELP! best answer 10 points!?
    I think if you having a red carpet deal you should have section with a backdrop where your friends can pose and have their picture taken as they enter your party. It might be neat to set the party up like a movie set and of course it would be starring you. It would be cool to have a poster made up with you in in it. Then around the pool you can directors chairs to sit on. Food can be set up like a backstage buffet. Lots of lights, cameras, loud music.PARTY advice! HELP! best answer 10 points!?
    I would have each of the guest come as their favorite actor or movie character from a specific era. (James Dean, Marilyn Monroe, Holly Golightly etc...). Since you have a pool theme it around surf movies. You could have movies playing throughout the house so as guest wander they see the movies from whatever genres you choose, but also have other things going on besides the movies, so it doesn't break up the party.
    Congratulations!!!! I have a great idea for you. Have the party in the evening, and hire a photographer to shoot your guests as they arrive on the red carpet. The flashbulbs will make them feel like stars and you will have a wonderful keepsake scrapbook to treasure for years to come, the unveiling of which will give you another excuse for a get together. Have them win a pretend oscar when they come in the door, and videotape their ';acceptance speech!'; You can set up a karaoke machine with a microphone and have a friend or family member act as the emcee giving the awards and holding the mike for the acceptance speeches. Play the footage at the party and it will provide your guests with a lot of laughter.





    On the invitations, tell your guests to come dressed for the academy awards, with lots of bling bling, but be prepared to change into a bathing suit for some aquatic fun later in the evening.





    If it is a sleepover, your guests might need a makeover before they ';face their public'; on the ride home. You could hire a makeup artist and a hair stylist to make everyone beautiful the next day.





    This would be a party your guests would remember forever.





    Have a WONDERFUL time, and HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!

    I need advice....help?

    My best friend Ann has been hanging out A LOT with my other best friend Josh and hiding it from me. They text each other all the time and spend a lot of alone time together. Every time I ask her about it she says they dont hang out and she thinks im just jealous. Recently i found out that she has been forwarding my text messages to him and now they both hate me. I have known Ann for three years and she is like a sister. I confronted her on this situation because i dont want people lying to me and she got really defensive. Her mom called her looking for her last night and when they found her she was planing on staying the night at his house. I believe there is something going on between them and they dont want me to know....what about you?I need advice....help?
    There is definitly something going on and if she can't tell you the truth about it then she's not really a good friend. Usually I don't believe in them but I think an ultimatum is needed here. Either she needs to start being honest with you or you can't be friends. I know for a fact its a hard thing to do but is having a bad friend better then losing her. I don't think you deserve that bad of a friend even though i don't know you.I need advice....help?
    Are you jealous I doubt it sorry to say this maybe they just don't want you around! happens alot people are petty that way just give them their space and make new friends cause they're being pricks and lying to you just ditch and move on they'll either miss you or they won't but then at least you will know how you should feel about them!!! I say if they don't want me around I don't want them around. simple as that!!!
    Yeah, it seems like there's definitely something going on between them, but don't always jump to conclusions. It could be something else?


    And Ann doesn't sound like a very good friend, she shouldn't be forwarding your messages to Josh, that's very untrustworthy..


    Just try to find out whats really going on with the two, if Ann's your best friend, she should listen.





    I hope I helped %26lt;3
    Sounds like she's just a big dumb lying ho. But idk.... I wouldn't put up with it if I were you.

    Need wrestling advice! help please!?

    I am currently a varsity wrestler at my high school, i weigh 152 pounds and am around 9% body fat. At the moment I am not happy with my body, I'm fairly muscular but all the other 152 pound guys are ripped.





    I'm looking for a way to totally change my body composition, i want to start getting solid and toned and look lean and mean.





    My only problem is i need to be 152 for each and every weigh in, so i need to get cut and ripped but maintain my weight.





    i am willing to work my *** off and i will never give up until my goal is reached.





    if someone could give me some advice it would be greatly appreciated!Need wrestling advice! help please!?
    This might be of help to you.Good luck anyways.


    http://www.myfit.ca/fitnessprograms/view鈥?/a>Need wrestling advice! help please!?
    Start to work out with smaller weights in all of your exercises. Larger weights are mainly for adding bulk %26amp; size. When bodybuilders begin regimin training for shows/competitions, they cut down on what they normally lift %26amp; use smaller weights to begin defining their musculature. if you bench, say, 250, begin benching only 100. It may feel like you are lifting nothing, but it works. Check any weight training website or muscle magazine %26amp; they will tell you the same thing. Also, begin focusing in on regular calesthenic workouts (push-ups, sit-ups, jumping jacks, etc.). As you go, you will see a difference in your size, while not losing strength or ambulatory motion (speed). Good luck.

  • I need advice/help on separation and child custody.?

    we have been separated since october 07 and tried to reconcile 2 weeks ago but we can't seem to communicate. i'm scared to have him see our son, he might not bring him back. he's going to council for things that happened to him when he was younger, and what he did early in life b4 i met him. my ? is when is enough enough? i'm thinking of filing for full custody.i'm not angry or i don't have ';trying to get back @him'; issues i'm just afraid he might snap.we tried to be together but he yelled at the kids, and spanked our son, he's 17 months old. i thought we could work it out and he filed his taxes and used our son to claim now he won't give him any $ to help with expenses. he just says we(his mom and him) will keep the money for him. i'm stuck. i need help filing for custody and will try for support legally. when do you say okay that's it i'm done is their an easy way to go on with life? i feel used and completely ignorant.I need advice/help on separation and child custody.?
    You need to filing with the courts asap. Don't worry about what he and other people will think you should only be concerned with WHATS BEST FOR MY CHILD. The courts can regulate visitation and child support and who will claim what on taxes to late for this . You need to be honest with the courts so they can deal with everything. Once you have an order from a Judge then that is binding. File with your courts I'm sure you can either go down to your court and ask questions they should have a help desk or you can probably get on line with their website to get info. But do something soon.

    Moving on. advice? help?

    im trying to move on from a love interest from the past that i never lost feelings for [haha].





    he is very very happy with his girlfriend, even though she treats him like crap.


    he's in love.





    we still are very good friends and im not sure whether he knows my feelings never went away. he's one of my best friends and i can trust him with so much.





    he came into my life just as something terrible was going to happen, and he made everything okay. now that he's gone, i feel so empty! ha this sounds so lame. and fyi im a very [or thought i was] independent person, also.





    anyways, im trying to ';fall out of love'; with him. hahaha i feel so awkward saying this. i still want him in my life because he is such a good friend, but how do i do this without having feelings for him?





    dziekuje :]Moving on. advice? help?
    stop being friends with him. theres no way you can get over it when youre still in contact with him. because deep down youre hoping he comes back to you, and when hes not, and you see him happy with that other girl, youre just hurting yourself more. stop putting yourself through that torture. hes obviously very happy, so why should you be miserable? go out and meet someone

    Seeking advice for food-borne illness lasting 3 weeks, at what point do I need to seek emergency medical help?

    I am 30 years old. 3 weeks ago went to Tiajuana, 2 days after returning became very ill. Violent diahrrea, stomach cramps, low-grade fever etc. Took antibiotics (Cypro) for 5 days and finished them. Today (20 days later) I still have abdominal pain (now on the lower right side of stomach that comes and goes), cramping, fatigue, diahrrea comes and goes, changes in stool, can only eat watered down soup and crackers. If I try to eat anything else become miserable. Waiting on the results of parasite infection test. When would I need to seek emergency help? Any idea what type of parasidic infection would cause above symptoms? I do have stomach problems (for the past 8 years) take aciphex and zantac daily. Never before have had lactose intollerance either. Any ideas or advice would be great.Seeking advice for food-borne illness lasting 3 weeks, at what point do I need to seek emergency medical help?
    I don't know if ER is the place, unless you feel really bad and you think you need to cal 911. But you definitely need to go to a different doctor, or to the same doctor, just call up the clininc and say that you are feeling very sick and you need help now.





    Antibiotics kill bacterial, but don't kill virused. You might be a having a viral infection. There was a lot of talk about stomach flu in my area (No CA) about a couple of years ago. People say it is quite miserable. I'm not sure how that was cured, or if your sympthoms exactly correspond.





    I hope you get well soon.Seeking advice for food-borne illness lasting 3 weeks, at what point do I need to seek emergency medical help?
    Not much you can do until the parasite infection test comes back. Saw a show talking about the different parasites people can get. Some are real nasty.





    Maybe call and ask about pain meds.
    Go now before it kills you! There are too many things you can catch in this day and age!
    go now for sure.
    I would go to the ER right now! Tell them everything and get a medication that will ease your discomfort. Call your doc and tell him/her the same and get a rush on your results. It shouldn't take 3 weeks for such results to come back! FYI...Food borne illnesses can cause death-take control of your health and don't leave it in the hands of someone else!
    try acidophilus, or papaya. or a digestive enzymes, or a milti-enzymes, next time you go take charcoal with you, or a digestive enzyme with you.
    Why don't you just consult some doctor? And there seem to be a lot of sites where you can get proffesional medical advice on the net. This hardly seems to be the place. Unless you're asking the common folk. But my answer to your question would be: If you're asking when to seek emergincy medical help...if you're not sure it's always wise to keep on the safe side. Just don't ask people on the internets about it. From what you have described it doesn't seem like an emergency but it could be a sign of something worse. I'm just saying just consult some professionals. But if by chance some Tiajuana parasite infection specialist answers to this.... I really hope you resolve your problem but places like this more or less give you the false impression. Including mine I guess. This answers.yahoo.com really doesn't answer all the questions





    Cheers,

    DS reccomendations? Advice? Help - I've no experince with this!?

    My husband and I are discussing buying our kids (boy, age 8 - girl, age 6) the Nintendo DS for Christmas this year. I know next to nothing about gaming systems but I am stuck doing the research on this purchase! All that I have done so far is decide that by the game selection available in our area at Game Stop, Target, etc is that the DS seems to have a much wider selection of games for kids the age of ours than the PSP does. The only system I've ever used is our current one, a PS2, so I'm really clueless about the DS. Could you please give me some advice? Is this a easy to use system for kids? Would you buy one for your 6 or 8 year old? What games do you reccommend? Thanks for all the help you can give me!DS reccomendations? Advice? Help - I've no experince with this!?
    the Nintendo DS and DS Lite are great for ppl of all ages. its designed to be easy to use so anyone can just pick it up and go.





    here's some stuff you should know...





    the Nintendo DS and DS Lite are two separate systems. the newer is DS Lite, which is what you'll be getting.





    The Nintendo DS Lite comes in a few colors in the US: black, pink, white, silver, blue/black, red/black, crimson pink. if your planning to buy them from Gamestop then i recommend buying them early. when i got mine for xmas they didn't have all the colors (sold out) so i had to go to Best Buy to get the one i wanted. larger stores like Best Buy or Circuit City should be ok and have most if not all the colors.





    Once you pick the colors then you'll also want to buy cases and of course screen protectors. the screens will scratch easy with heavy use so i strongly recommend getting one. the outside of the DS doesn't scratch as easy buy i still recommend a case of some kind, or maybe even just some skins that cover it. all of this is sold where ever they sell the DS itself.





    some DS's have a problem with the hinge cracking, which doesn't hurt gameplay, just the appearance. so don't worry about it too much if it happens. Nintendo will usually fix this for you if its that big of a deal to you.





    as for games, for young girls i recommend games like:


    Cooking Mama 1 or 2


    Carnival Games


    Plushees


    Animal Crossing:Wild World


    Drawn to Life


    Mario Party


    Pokemon Diamond/Pearl





    for boys:


    Drawn to Life


    Mario Party


    Mario Kart


    Pokemon Diamond/Pearl


    Lego Star Wars


    Bomberman


    Elite Beat Agents


    New Super Mario Bros








    having siblings myself i'm assuming you want the most play and want them to share. so i suggest getting one Pokemon Pearl and the other Pokemon Diamond. each game comes with pokemon the other cannot get in the game. it has wireless trading so they can trade with each other. theres over 400 pokemon to collect and over 300 hours of gameplay for the average player. so they won't be beating that game anytime soon.





    or you can get them both Animal Crossing. they can each make their own town, design it the way they want then go into each others towns. its a never ending game, seasonal as well. so of course, they won't beat this game either.





    or if you want them to have two different games I recommend Mario Party and New Super Mario Bros. they both have mini games that can be shared with ppl who don't have the game. so they can play each other's games while not needing their own copy of it.





    Well, Good Luck. Let us know if you need anymore help. :)DS reccomendations? Advice? Help - I've no experince with this!?
    I stated a DS craze in my house. First I got one because I like many, many of the games on it, then my sister needed one for pokemon and Animal Crossing, next it was my mom. She found out she could play her favorite card %26amp; puzzle games. Next it was my two younger cousins, and finally my aunt.





    It's just fun for everyone! I don't see a problem with Gamestop, just find someone who knows about the DS games, or look into different titles and search Google for any available reviews.
    A DS is perfectly suitable for kids. They're fun for all. There's plenty of games you could get. New Super Mario Bros is quite fun. The Pokemon games are great as well. Yoshi's Island DS is a personal favorite of mine. Cooking Mama is really fun too. There's plenty to choose from. ^_^
    I would consider ordering it online through Best Buy or somewhere like that. Target's the better option, you can be sure the system will be in top quality (I don't trust gamestop myself especially for disc games).








    Now for the games, I would recommend the New Super Mario Bros. It is a fairly long platformer, it is easy enough for kids to play thought it too.





    For an RPG (A Role Playing Game) I would recommend Pokemon, I would suggest buying each kid a copy if you do get it.


    Pokemon is nice clean and fairly long RPG, it has no violence in it (Sure they get blasted with fire/water or shocked by electricty, but pokemon don't bleed or die from the battles. They are just a way for the pokemon to compete against one another.





    It also helped my spelling a bit when I was eight playing the first pokemon games.








    For use of the touch screen I would suggest Wario Ware Touched, it has some crude humor but it is cleaner than most cartoons on the TV now. The game is played in a series of minigames that you have a few seconds to do, it's more fun than it sounds.








    Kirby's Canvas Curse, You play as Kirby, who has been cursed by a sorceress and is trapped as a ball. You have to draw a line on the touch screen and he rolls on it, it is a full fledged game and used the touch screen well.

    I need advice! Help!?

    I have just finished my first term of college. About 2 months ago, I developed a weird sleeping pattern. My roommate is gone at her boyfriend's most nights, and when she's gone I found myself awake at 4 or 5 in the morning, despite having 8 o'clock classes. When I did sleep, I'd wake up in sweat and panicking. The nights my roommate was there, I was able to fall asleep around 1 or so but she'd tell me that I'd wake her up by screaming ';don't'; or ';no'; in my sleep. She also told me that I rolled around and moaned a lot. I'd be out at parties Thurs - Sat night and would be out till 3 or 4 but wouldn't always come home alone, if I even came home. Those nights I was able to get about 5 hours of sleep, only because of being with someone and being intoxicated. I would often sleep in class or crash at my computer in the afternoon. Sleeping only became worse about a month ago when I ruptured my achilles tendon. With the pain and the cast, sleeping became almost impossible. The pain meds would cause me to pass out, but I would still wake up panicked and drenched in swaet. Lately, I haven't been able to get any sleep. I'll lie in bed all night, and am only able to sleep when the suns out. I often sleep in the afternoon (2-3 hours), but I can't at night. With the new term starting soon, I need to be able to sleep at night.


    What's going on? Why can't I sleep at night? Why do I wake up panicked and drenched in sweat? Why can't I sleep alone? I either need to be with someone or be texting someone while I fall asleep to get sleep. How can I fix this? Also, how can I make sleeping with my cast on easier?


    I can't go off of 3 hours of sleep any more, I'm starting to look awful.I need advice! Help!?
    You should definitely see a doctor, who will likely tell you that you have a panic disorder, and will prescribe you a sleeping aid to help you sleep more regularly, or an anti anxiety drug, which will help you feel less anxious while you sleep. The disorder was likely brought on by the transition to college... you're used to having family in the house near you all night as you slept, and now there are only strangers (sometimes! when they're not at their boyfriend's place). I had a LOT of difficulty sleeping on weekends that my roommate when home (I stayed at school and worked most weekends). Ultimately, my doctor put me on prozac to help me feel less stressed out and anxious about everything, and it helped.





    There's no way of sleeping easily in a cast... sorry :-\ when I had my cast, I'd have a nightcap of irish cream every night to get me sleepy enough to overcome the uncomfortable sensation.I need advice! Help!?
    Dear Panda,


    At this age and stage your main concern should be your studies and nothing else.


    By deviating from your core area of studies,you are diecting your energies on something else which is disturbing you.


    Just concentrate on your career and you will be fine very soon.

She even described my style as being gay and that women do these things. I can see where she's coming from, but I want to be who I am, and I'm not gay. *I really would like some help on how i could sort this out, also things I could say to her so she can accept me accept me.*I need advice %26amp; help.?

    Tell her to reflect back to when she was a young kid and ask her to be honest with herself. Did she ever wear things then, that today should would be horrified at? Did she view it as just a form of self-expression? Did her parents allow her that right? If so, why is she denying you? Is not, how did she feel about it and were her feelings justified.
    It is your mothers house you live in. Not yours. She has her rules. Just as society does. You may want to respect your mothers rules.

  • 8TH GRADE ADVICE? HELP? TIPS? ANYTHING!?

    Going to a public school after being in private all of my life with the exception of 3rd grade. Advice? And what about lunch and stuff? This is what I'm thinking...on the last class I have before lunch I will ask someone if they would mind if I sit with them. I will make sure they arent like a butthole or anything first. Sound good? And I don't know anyone going there, so thats why I'm doing this, lol.8TH GRADE ADVICE? HELP? TIPS? ANYTHING!?
    you'll be fine, trust me! I would try finding someone else that looks lonely? That way you guys can both be friends, and make new ones together!8TH GRADE ADVICE? HELP? TIPS? ANYTHING!?
    Just be yourself, and I'm sure someone will start to talk to you. Maybe if there are some clubs you can join, you could meet some people that way. Are there any kids in your neighborhood your age that will be going to this school? Maybe you could start off a conversation about what their school is like, and maybe become friends. I know it will be scary, but I'm sure there will be other kids that are in their 1st year at that school too.
    Depends tremendously which school and which state. If it's a middle school or a junior high.





    8th grade for me was party everyday because there's no stress. So relax and try to have a conversation with people that aren't ';buttholes';, introduce yourself when you the chance. Ask if you can sit with them during lunch, most people will notice you're new. You can buy or bring your own food, be sure the food doesn't smell. For example, eggs.





    No worries, especially for people your age. It's all good.





    Have fun! I wish I was still young enough to live without worries...
    Well, I'll help you as best as I can.





    First off, yeah that sounds good. That is one of the easiest ways to start making friends. Just ask someone if you can sit with them. Usually the person you sit with is sitting with a bunch of his/her friends. Then you'll talk some, and before you know it, you'll be friends with everyone at the table :)





    Advice: Just be yourself. Thats the best advice for all grades :)
    I'm starting 11th grade this year and have moved lots of times not knowing anyone, so I can tell you from experience that you are going to be fine! The lunch thing- that's what I do, too! It's a good plan.
    be outgoing and enjoy 8th grade you cant do it over!

    Women needs advice / help with Ford Explorer!?

    I have a 2002 ford explorer. I know very little about this vehicle. I am very smart and I know basics about vehicles. I owned a neon for years and new everything about it. I am pretty good about fixing things myself. My problem is now I have kids, babies at that so I don't have time to get under the hood any more.





    My problem is every time I take it somewhere to get repaired the flippin mechanic rips me off. I know its because I'm a women and I've learned that鈥檚 how it is in my area got over it.


    Okay took it to Wal-Mart for a oil change and air filter change. The dude forgot to put the freakin air filter in. So I take it back and tell them they refund me the 8 dollars whatever for the filter. I laughed and asked him that I was concerned that it would have caused a problem with something else. They said oh no no it'll be fine ( I drove like 150 miles before it started jerking and I checked and found no filter) I knew they were lying but I left went home and the check engine light was still on so I started it up like 15 times in a row to reset it but of course it didn't go off. Took it for a diagnostic check (which auto zone did) They couldn鈥檛 read it to me (funny huh?) So I looked it up and have narrowed it down to either my MAF censor or my O2 censors?





    My Question to all you people who know about trucks do you think that driving it with no filter caused it (because I do) and if so how (if I can) do I prove it to Wal-Mart? I am so sick of people jackin my truck up and trying to take advantage of me because they think I'm a freakin moron.Women needs advice / help with Ford Explorer!?
    Well first of all, you are getting screwed over all the time because you probably don't want to pay for an actual ASE Technician to repair your vehicle. People at walmart, auto zone, etc are just young kids making minimum wage and not enough skill or training to actually work at a real shop that all their employee's are factory trained and kept up with training all the time. Thats why we charge more then those places. Just remember, cheaper isn't always better as your finding out. Don't blame all mechanics as ';rip-off artists';, as good honest mechanics are out there, they do charge for their training and skill though. My suggestion to you- ask your friends who they go to or recommend. You might find they are a bit higher in price, but in the long run, it will pay for itself in the long run.


    As for leaving your air filter off, fine particals can enter your engine and put premature wear on your engine, but most likely, the reason your light is on now is that it cause the MAF sensor to build up with lint or dirt, have it cleaned, replace the air filter and you proably will be good to go. ps, the SES lights won't reset now a days by turning the car on and off, they have to be cleared by using a scan-tool hooked up to your computer systemWomen needs advice / help with Ford Explorer!?
    lack of air filter would not harm the O2 sensor, but it could hurt the MAF sensor.





    Wal-Mart does not have mechanics, they have wannabes and never-was people, they do not pay enough to have knowledgeable people - with very few exceptions.
    Okay that sucks, I sympathise with you. I am a single mom of 2 drive an explorer and have been screwed by walmart mechanics, but not nearly that bad! I was going to suggest you call and speak to the manager then I found this and thought it might help you out.
    run back to wal mart and scream and ***** at them. (tell them youre pmsing) haha. thatll frighten em! then thell them exactly what to do, step by step. use as many technical terms as you can. if they still dont do the job right, sue them. say they were sexist. hey, maybe even get them to let you go in the bay and train the clowns there how to change a damn air filter! my freakin 12 year old brother can change an air filter. and he's spent all of 2 minutes under a car hood. and that was because he dropped a quarter in the engine compartment and was looking for it. haha. as for damages done to the car, there could be a number of foreign contaminants in the engine now. that could cause poor performance and foul up your spark plugs. the filters are there for a reason.
    I'm confused about how you took it back because there was they didn't change the air filter and got your 8 bucks back but somehow drove for 150 miles without an air filter. Maybe I'm not reading that right. Truthfully some of the cheaper air filters are what cause most problems with the maf sensor. Tiny pieces of the paper element come off the filter and get stuck to the hotwire. Worst part about driving without an air filter would be dust in the rings destroying cylinder wall. Who cares about the maf go steal one from a junkyard. What is the purpose of autozone scanning your car if they don't tell you what they found. At least to try and sell you a part. Weird.
    I can not say for certain that not having the air filter installed caused the problem but if you were not having any problems before it is a good possibility the maf sensor which is the mass air flow sensor. It could have given a bad reading to the computer and tried to adjust for all the air that was being taken in and kicked the check engine light on. Disconnect the neg. side of the battery for a minimum of two minutes and then reconnect and start the vehicle and see if it cleared the light. If it does not I would take it back to walmart and make them clear the code and see if it stays out. This is assuming you have the air filter in the vehicle at present. I would talk only to the manager of there service department if they give you crap get notarized copies from two techs from other reliable shops and take them to small claims court and make them pay. You at least have to give them the option of seeing if they can correct there mistake before you take them to court.

    I'm taking my road test in PA tomorrow and I'm really nervous. Any last minute advice to help me stay calm?

    I really don't want to fail :(I'm taking my road test in PA tomorrow and I'm really nervous. Any last minute advice to help me stay calm?
    Millions of people are driving.


    Relax................I'm taking my road test in PA tomorrow and I'm really nervous. Any last minute advice to help me stay calm?
    I dont understand why people get nervous.... anyway, just drive with your hands on the wheel where they're supposed to go, look at your blind spots and go the speed limit.... they won't say anything to you to distract you and make sure you don't say anything to them.
    just stay calm, i got all nervous and hit the barrel when parallel parking.
    Have a few drinks before the test, to relax you.
    put it into perspective
    have a converasation with the instructor and do your best

    I have Oedema/Water Retention i take a water tablet but it do not seem to help,any advice?

    Diuretics have only 2 clear medical indications,hypertension and congestive cardiac failure.





    Unfortunately they are often prescribed for simple fluid retention,the commonest link here is obesity.They tend to be notoriously unhelpful in these cases.





    The diuretic increases urine output,after a short time this is detected by the hypothalamus. It causes release of the hormone ADH which is stored in the pituitary. ADH reduces the urine output and the oedema returns. If at this point you stop the diuretic,it takes a while for the hypothalamus to detect this and it continues to release excess ADH. As a result urine output falls and the fluid retention appears worse than in the premedicated state.I have Oedema/Water Retention i take a water tablet but it do not seem to help,any advice?
    Yes, make an appointment to see your GP.


    You don't say why you are on diuretics or where the oedema is, but whatever the reason you need to see a doctor.


    Eliminate added salt and salty foods from your diet.


    Make that appointment, your doctor will either change your medications or refer you to the appropriate specialist.I have Oedema/Water Retention i take a water tablet but it do not seem to help,any advice?
    Have you had your BP checked lately? Maybe you need a beta blocker AND a diuretic.
    u should go back to the doctor who prescribed it and tell him/her that its not working so maybe they can try a different one, or increse the dose.

    I'm a man who needs fashion help. Any advice?

    I need some different clothing for work and play. I value comfort, funtionality and durability most of all. I work at an office and I almost always wear khakis and a polo shirt. Outside of work I usually just wear jean or cargo pants, sneakers, and a simple monocolor shirt, or sweater. I want some variety, but I don't want to spend a fortune, nor do I want to constantly dress like I'm spending the evening out. Just casual stuff that looks good and lasts long and is very comfortable and that I wouldn't have to be anal about getting a little dirty.





    General pointers as well as specific suggestions would be great.I'm a man who needs fashion help. Any advice?

    So Im going to Trinidad for 3 weeks...any ideas on what I can do there for the entire three weeks....I mean I go every year and I've never had a GREAT time I'm so tired of doing the same things which is go to the beach, and visit relatives...What can I do to keep myself occupied the entire time I'm there?Going to Trinidad on vacation, need advice...help!!!?
    youre lucky. I wish I could go there. I love the beach. I have to go to Austria every year and theres absolutely nothing to do there. but sorry I dont know what else you can do in Trinidad. Ive never been there.

    I went bankrupt 2 years ago. FICO at 642. NEED ADVICE! HELP!?

    I only this year started to get credit cards, started paying school loans, got a totally new phone service, and have hospital bills ( not sure if they count towards credit).





    Anyways I opened about 5 credit card accounts, used them up quite a bit, and paid of course, and have been paying all of my other bills.





    Everything's been solid and quite fine.





    My FICO score in april was 610, then went to 623 then to 634 then to 642. seems to be rising slowly monthly.





    Is this normal? And is this score okay at all?





    I did go bankrupt in Jan of 2005, so not sure if by this time this score is good, bad, or fair.





    Also, if I keep paying by bills will it go up even higher, or stall? And can the score ever drop by a few points, even if I do nothing wrong?





    Also, if I don't use 4 of 5 of my Ccards at all, does that hurt any?





    Do hospital bills, phone bill, other bills count towards credit?





    How could i ACTIVELY work on increasing my score dramatically?





    HELP!I went bankrupt 2 years ago. FICO at 642. NEED ADVICE! HELP!?
    The slow rise is normal, but don't expect the 10-13 points every month to continue. Unless something major changes you can really expect it to stablize between 0 and 4 points per month on average.





    The suggestion of closing the account is a bad idea. One major factor is utilization of your credit cards. This is your total avaiable credit compared to your credit used. Ideally the best help to your score will be when you keep this at or under 30%. So if on all of your cards total you have a $2000 total limit. You should not use over $600. To really help your score you should use each card every month for purchases you would usually make with cash, again not going over the 30%. Then at the end of the month pay off the accounts to avoid interest. This shows activity and will also help your score.





    The score is based on a lot of factors, so yes it could drop even if you do nothing at all, but again the changes will be minor. The site below is the company that does the FICO Score and you can read a bit more on how the scores are calculated.I went bankrupt 2 years ago. FICO at 642. NEED ADVICE! HELP!?
    Bad Advice above!!!





    DO NOT CLOSE CREDIT CARDS, it hurts your score!!!





    You get credit for the amount of time that you have had an account open. Closing it takes away from this.
    Your credit score is below average, but it's really terrific considering that you have a bankruptcy on your record. You must be doing a lot of things right.





    Paying your bills on time and keeping your credit card balances low are the biggest things you can do right now. I think you're right that your credit score will plateau at some point. A bankruptcy stays on your credit report for ten years and, as long as it's there, will be a big negative on your score. Fortunately, as you've been discovering, you can still qualify for credit and get quite a respectable FICO score by demonstrating responsible use of credit.
    Your credit would raise faster if you closed 2 or 3 of the cards...once you have more than 2 cards your score starts going down.





    You need to pay the medical bills so they don't go to collections...medical bills do not show up on your credit report until they go into default and get sold to a collections company.





    The phone bill is great, but that doesn't get reported to the credit bureau either...so it is really important to be paing on the credit cards and keeping them under 50% of available credit and paying on time every month!

    I need advice, important, please help me?

    I am a 24 and I live with my 8 year old sister and my mother. She is depressed (because she is single) and she is being so ******* selfish. She is not being a good mother. My sister is a little girl and needs her, what would you do.





    I need an advice, I love my sister and I'm like a father but she also loves mum and mum is being so selfish, that it outrages me, because it's not my sister's fault.





    Advice?, thanks, Alan from the UK.I need advice, important, please help me?
    I assume you have talked to your mother, if she is not doing her best just try talking to the GP and get some counselling sessions for her, IT'S FREE and they might help a lot!


    Continue being as lovely as you are with your sis, tell her how much you love her, and let her know she can tell/ask you anything. Ask her about the school%26amp; friends and check she is having support from friends and teachers...(or at least not trouble from them).


    Watching a film or cooking can create also opportunities to have fun the three of you... All the Best;)I need advice, important, please help me?
    you need to find a date for your mother if that would stop her been depressed

    I am 18 in a community college right now, and would like to transfer from CUNY to private college Pratt Institute for Architecture which is 5 years program B.Arch. I am only in community college for one year. Will this private college, Pratt institute look on my high school SAT and transcript, or they will look only on college GPA because I did very poor in high school? I will have now only 24 credits?


    Thank You.Any advice and help please? will be appriciated. Thank You.?
    Yes, they will look at your high school transcripts and GPA. Your college GPA will carry more weight than your high school GPA, so if you've done better in college, then you should be fine - that is, if you have any grades to show for it yet. That's the problem with only going to community college for one year - you're applying to transfer before you have anything to show for your work.

    Legal advice plz help my husband says i'm not allowed to use the car.?

    my husband took out a loan to buy a car ,he works and i'm a stayhome mom (housewife).we have both made payments on the car.but he says its his car and not mine cause of the loan is in his name.he stops me from using the car,today he told me not to drive the car at all.i had to depend on my mom and dad to bring me around.i live in canada.is he right in saying the car is just his i taught its 50/50 in a marriage?Legal advice plz help my husband says i'm not allowed to use the car.?
    You're hubby sounds like an obsessive freak. If I were you, I'd divorce him, go back to school so you can get a well paying job, and then you can buy your own car and support your kids without relying on a man.Legal advice plz help my husband says i'm not allowed to use the car.?
    The car belongs to who ever has their name on the title. Why do you stay with such a jerk anyway? Never mind I probably don't want to know.
    Even though you are married, unfortunately it is in his name all the way so he does have the right to say you cant drive it, legally, not morally.





    He might be the kind of guy that uses the fact that he works and you dont to make you feel less than what you are, as hard as it may be you might need to get out of the marriage. No one deserves that!





    But again, legally he does not have to let you use the car.


    Good Luck, and remember you are deserve the best in life and dont settle for less!
    because yall are married u can drive the car!


    if he did some how manage to get the police after u then u will only get a warning! but wifes take their husbands car all the time during divorice and there isnt much anyone can do about it
    i'll sock that fou if i was you if you've made payments then its your car ask him for devorce if he loves you he'll say no
    Sounds to me like you should trade in your husband and get your own car!!
    The fact you have to ask this question is proof enough you should not be in this relationship.
    This is an abusive relationship, and it probably won't (and shouldn't) last. Irrespective of the names on the title, you should be able to drive the car.
    Who's name is on the title? LEgally they are the owner, married or not.
    well if both of your names are on the title, then you can. If not, even if you pay on it, it is legally his car.





    I'm not saying he is right for doing that though.
    Yeah if its in his name, its his car. But I dont know what kind of marriage you guys have that he is being so controlling. He should want you to have reliable ransportation...you are at home all day and may need it for emergencies.
    It's not a question of ownership - it's a question of do you have insurance to drive the car.








    If not tell him to get some - if he wont then you know you married a big sh1t
    It doesn't matter who's name is on the loan. If both your's and your husband's names are on the title, you legally both own the car, 50/50. If it is just his name on the title, you don't have any ownership claims in the vehicle.
    Divorce. If there is no respect, there is no marriage.
    You should just demand that he buys you a car or you can just go out yourself and buy a new car. Why is he so stingy????
    I am unfamiliar with the laws in Canada but in USA if you are married and living in the same household you can drive the car and are covered under insurance! He is totally b.s.ing you - why would he do that?
    Well I don't know about Canadian law ... but in the US ... Who name is on the loan has nothing to do with who can drive it. If he has car insurance, everyone living at the same residence has the right to to drive it and is covered.
    I have to ask this - don't mean to be rude, but if he is working and you are not, how did you BOTH manage to make payments on the car as you said you did.?


    He sounds like a controlling jerk to me. I'd give him ';what-for';, then drag him around in the trunk for an hour to show him who the REAL boss is!
    well if you both make payments on it, then you both have the right to drive it. When you enter into a marrige legally all of your belongings are shared that's why it goes 50/50 in divorces because you are one unit sharing everything. I think the real question you should be asking is why you would be with a controll freak that makes you rely on your parents to get you around when there is a perfectly good car at your disposal. Just because you are a stay at home mom doesn't mean you work any less than he does, I wouldn't doubt that you even work more. He needs to respect you. You shouldn't have to 'ask permission' for such things.





    Also...if he feels that it's only his car because it's his name on the loan then I suggest you stop making payments on it until he lets you drive it as much as you want
    It IS 50/50 in a marriage. He may technically ';own'; the car, but in a marriage you are partners. What's mine is yours, what is yours is mine. As his wife, you're covered on his insurance policy...assuming he has insured the car.





    The two of you need to go to marriage counseling. I don't know what has been going on between you, but if your husband is trying to ';contain'; you or control you, you need to give serious thought to either getting therapy for yourself and your marriage or getting out of the relationship before he hurts you.





    DO NOT LET HIM ISOLATE YOU FROM YOUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY!!!!! Have an escape route planned and make sure your family knows what is going on. Make sure your children are protected, too.





    Good luck!





    P.S. I live in Canada, too.
    Although I live in the US, I would say that even if it's only in his name, the fact that you are married makes it just as much your responsibility too.





    As for what he is doing, by not letting you drive it, I'd say he has some major issues with dominance, and that he needs a smack across the face!





    Is he afraid you will wreck it or something? How does he expect you to get around?...tell him to buy a car you can use too then. Because if you are unemployed, you won't be able to get a car on your own anyway.
    well technically, he is right. if the loan and the registration is in his name it is his car and can prevent you from driving, but since you made payments on it using your money, he effectively owes you that money if he wont let you drive the car. i hope this helps

    Hello well i have a boyfriend and his name is austin, then again there is this one guy name Nathan. They are both great but like here is where i need help! i never see austin well once a week. Then there is Nathan who goes to my school! I thought i loved austin but now i dont like him as much as i use to, and now me and nathan are growing closer! :( do i end it with austin and date nathan? HELP!!!!I need advice...... Help?
    You should go out with the one you want to be with. No one can make that decision for you. Either way you go your probably going to wish at some point you went the other way.I need advice...... Help?
    You need to do what will make you happy. If you are just going to end it with Austin because its to hard to see each other and its easier with Nathan, and you like Austin more then you have to consider Nathans feelings here. You need to be with the person that your heart wants not your head.
    my kids names are austin n nathanial,so this caught my eye lol,anyway i dont think u should end it completely,i think that the best thing for all of u,is for u to be friends with austin and nathan, and to see for urself who is the better choice(not from guilt or curiousity)
    U should judge which one is better by how they treat you and if they know you really good u need to know someone who is always listening that's my advice

    Need Relationship Advice...HELP!?

    I have been involved with the love of my life for about 3 years. It begin when I was 18 and I was still young and immature. We have been through alot, the lying and cheating, jealously, you name it. He up and moved to Florida about 1 1/2 ago and I changed my number and haven't spoken to him the whole year. He called me the other day and said he tracked my number down. To get to the point, he wants me to move to Florida and get married. I'm not sure because I have my own place and responsiblities. I love this man and I know if I'm not with him I will not be completely happy but I don't know if I'm ready to jump up and move when we haven't really been together face to face in a while.





    Need Advice... thanxNeed Relationship Advice...HELP!?
    Sound you are really unsure and you have the right to be, moving in with someone especially if they live across the country is a huge step. First of all because you have established your self in the past here nad really become your own person away from him. You say you haven't talk in a year, that's a long tme and two people can change alot in two years. Sometimes for the better and soemtimes for the worse. I suggest starting off very slow, you don't want to move in so quickly it overwhelms you. Try to visit him for a week or two and spend time together and see how things go first. Once you do that then you will know whats right for you.


    good luckNeed Relationship Advice...HELP!?
    Visit Florida first. Just go to visit. Talk to him, and let whatever happens, happen. If you have a history, I think it will be easier than you think.
    If you are seriously considering this, you are still young and immature.
    only you can make the decision but this i can tell you if he cheated hell do it again so think youre decision and be very sure of what you want besides sometimes is better to be alone than what a bad person
    Difficult to help you but I would try my best. You should not jump into the marriage. You must give careful consideration first. Are both of you mature enough now? Does he have a stable job and secure financial situation? Do you really like to bear his child and take care of him and his child? Would you regret if you are not living with him in the future? If the answers to the above are ';YES';, tell him the truth. Share with him the difficulties and if he truely loves you, he would understand your situation and help you to solve the problems together..... and both of you would be together eventually.


    Cheers.
    Well you shouldn't be the one making the sacrifice to move to florida to get married. He should make the sacrifice. You have you whole life were you live. Why don;t you tell him to come see you.


    Then you can make a fair decision.
    Nessa, how you still love the man and haven't been with him in a year and a half. You mean to tell me you haven't met any other guys, you haven't had sex since him? Then you also said there was lying and cheating, that should be enough right there to let it go, unless you were the one who was doing the cheating. If he left you before he can and probably leave you again. You need to think hard on this one and pray about it too.
    its been a y ear and a half since you've seen him. people change. you cant be for certain he's STILL the man you love
    OK your nice and happy here why move. Well think of it he has cheated and lied to you. Do you think he won't do it again. Especially if he knows he can get away with it. It is a good thing if you just stayed there and be happy and not gt yoru heart broken again
    Before you get married and live together, you need to really know each other. You're right to be cautious. If you are interested in him, start visiting each other and see how things go.
    I wouldn't jump into things right now. Think back and remeber why it didn't work the first time. I'd reconnect slowly and see if things have really changed. Another problem is you don't know how each other have changed over the course of a year and a half. You probably aren't the same people and once together you may not even feel the same way .
    Why after a year and a half he decides now that he wants to marry you? Where was that devotion when he was packing to go to Florida? You can marry him, if you want a life packed with lying, cheating, and jealously. Ten times out of ten, the relationship that y'all had before he left is going to be the same type of relationship that y'all will always have. You don't have to rush and decide, unless he decides to up and move again.
    Gurl go get down ................get married!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Just tell him what you told us. If he has matured, he will understand and work with you to find out if this is the best course of action for the two of you. I love happy endings, so I wish you both the best of luck.
    If he truly loved you whay would he have moved away a year and a half ago?
    he loves you he tracked your number if you love him you'll go to him
    FOLLOW UR FIRST MIND, BUT IF U REALLY LOVE HIM TAKE THE CHANCE, OR TRY GETTING SOME1 2 HOLD UR PLACE DOWN IN CASE U CHANGE UR MIND
    Are you serious? Listen honey, if this guy actually loved you he would not have left 1 1/2 years ago. Not sure you are getting the whole story here. Why did he suddenly change his mind? Plus, I am sure you will find someone that you don't have to worry about the lying and cheating that will make you completely happy. You are only 21!!! Live life a little while longer before getting married.
    I would try to reconnect slowly to be sure that your feelings are still the same when you are face to face. Then, date long distance for a period of time. After that, you will know. If you truly love him, you will feel at home with him regardless of where you live. Best of luck!
    I am a romantic at heart and I guess you should go for it! The reason is that first of all, dont worry abt why he had moved.. ppl make mistakes but it is clear he missed you a lot and thus tracked u down.. secondly, he is not messing up with u and is proposing marriage, which is a positive sign provided he has a stable job or a degree... Girl just go for it! U know u love him.. why wonder all ur life.. ';what if i had moved';.. just do it and see what happens.. I wish u all the best!
    Don't do it if he wants you that bad he will work out things with himself like coming to see you going on dates, but why did he up an move like that and you haven't talked to him in a year! There are easier ways to get someones phone number that doesn't take a year.
    I'd find out why he left. (a failed online relationship?..etc)


    Visit him first...get a room close to his place.


    Check things out first...ask to meet some people in his circle.


    I would'nt just move.
    tell him that u like it where you are. tell him that u love him and all that, but you have responsibilities to take care of. just tell him how you feel. since you guys havnt talked face to face in a while, tell him that you would like to wait, and catch up with him. :)

    Well it's gonna be Junior yr in HS and all my friends are so destined to get me a bf when they know i'm trying to focus more on school... How can i please them and still do good in school?I need advice .... Help?!?
    You don't have to please anybody but yourself!





    If you don't want them to find you a boyfriend, tell them that your focusing on your studies so you don't need that stress right now.





    If your fine with them finding you a boyfriend then so be it, many people do well with their studies and have a boyfriend. Just don't make it your complete main focus.I need advice .... Help?!?
    Its easy. Tell them!


    If they're your true friends they will understand and not try to pressure you in getting a bf.


    They should understand schooling should always come first. School, on that note, is the ONLY key to your future.


    You have the rest of your life to date people!
    Easy, you have a boyfriend and stay focused on school as well, anybody can do that!

    The pill and pregnancy advice please help?

    ok i have been ttc for 1.7 years with no luck so i had givin up because of my very irregular perios i went on the pill instead well acidently i missed a few pills during the month and i had sex everyday this month well now its on the second inactive pills and i have not gotten my period yet . yesterday i thought i was spotting but it was brown and it was soo little not like a period and today my breasts are tender this is also my first month on the pill my questions are am i pregnant? or is this normal for the first month on the pill ? and if you think i am pregnant when should i take the test? and should i start the new pack ?The pill and pregnancy advice please help?
    When I had been off the pill for a while and then had to go back on because of a cyst, I started spotting midway through and also right before my period showed up. I think it is very common. It's called breakthrough bleeding. If you haven't officially gotten your period by the time you are done with the inactive pills then call your doctor or take a HPT.The pill and pregnancy advice please help?
    Depends on the type of pill you are taking, but sometimes they don't always give you a period the first month you start on them. Wait until you have finished the pack, then take a pregnancy test. If it's negative, then you aren't.


    Wouldn't it be cool if you were?


    Best of luck.
    Your period may be a little weird for a couple of months on the pill but it will go away. Doctors say that just because you miss a pill it doesn't necessarily mean you will get preg. it takes alot to get preg. just look at how many people try and try and it takes months even years. But if your period doesn't come (my period came on day 3 of the sugar pills) then take the test if it shows up negative then I would continue to take the next pack of BC. **** Luck:)

    Art Reproduction,...Prints & Giclees advice and help?

    I'm a new artist looking for a printing company to create reproductions of my artwork. I paint with acrylics on canvas and I have no idea what to expect, or what to look for, and what is best.





    Is getting prints done by digital photography good?


    Or is getting prints done by scanning the artworks good?





    Which one would be the better choice? Any advice would a great help. Thanks in advance.Art Reproduction,...Prints %26amp; Giclees advice and help?
    I would look for a local printer that has Giclee equipment and has been doing it for a long time- It takes experience to create quality Giclee prints. If it's possible , set up an appointment with the printer to see your work and together you will know if this is the process for you. I've tried all processes to reproduce my acrylic paintings and Giclee is the best, in my opinion. Good Luck and congratulations on taking the step in producing editions of your work-Art Reproduction,...Prints %26amp; Giclees advice and help?
    Scanning gives you the best resolution and color which Giclee does. With this process you can enlarge dramatically as well as change colors and you can apply the image to just about anything like aluminum, canvas, wood, plastic, bone, glass. With both Giclee and Digital you won't have the expensive and cumbersome overhead of thousands of prints from an off-set press or printer/lithographer. They have to do this because the press(same as newspapers) itself needs time and repeated 'checks' to ensure color and resolution is correct. So to make it profitable they have to press/print hundreds to thousands.


    With digital and giclee once done/scanned you have the CD and can print on demand with no overhead and storage costs. Plus you can offer varying sizes to the same painting. Scanning is about$25 - $80(done only once) depending on size and reproducing on canvas about $30 for a ie, 20x28 inches; $15 on paper 20x28. Costs vary on who does it but some artists are buying the equipment and doing it themselves. China, Thailand offer very good costs at higher production with personal inspection before shipping.


    * if you have a good computer with a larger printer you can print your own; having a good camera is a must-have with 6-10 MegaPixels to print your own or getting a commercial printer to do the same.
    Hi Stony,


    I don't know enough about Giclees to do a ';compare and contrast,'; but I have been informed by my professors that if we are to have prints made of our work, we should have them done by people well experienced in ART lithographs and serographs, not any other kind. Evidently there is a big difference in how it is done, influencing the end result, of course.





    http://www.giclee.com Looks like a great site, both educational and commercial. They also have the right attitude towards an artists' work.





    http://www.answers.com/topic/lithography has something on the lithography process, too,





    Here's a book to check out as well: ';Waterless Lithography: An Artist's Guide to Making Professional-Quality Prints Using Nik Semenoff's Method.';





    That ought to hold us for a while!

    Best friend advice?!! help!?

    ok so my best friend has a boyfriend they have been together for like 6 months they have broken up and got back together four times... they are both sprung.. recently he just moved and she is devestated! she has been crying! i told her hes not her life!.. i dont know wat else to tell her! any help please! ( ever since they have been together shes not really the same... it seems like shes choosing him over me!?)Best friend advice?!! help!?
    It looks like you have two issues to address: your best friend is upset about her boyfriend moving away -AND- you're a little upset about losing your best friend to her boyfriend. That one is always tough because it hurts to lose priority to the new boyfriend, especially if you've seen the boys come and go and you're always still around in the end as her friend.





    The only thing you can do for her right now is to be the best friend to her that you can be. Just listen to her talk out her feelings and be nice to her - she needs to get it out of her system so she can start feeling better. By doing this, you also get a chance to show and remind her how much of a real friend you really are, and she will realize that she doesn't want to lose your friendship for a boyfriend that might go away.Best friend advice?!! help!?
    alright, me and my boyfriend have been datin' for almost 7 months and my bestfriend said we have drifted away and blamed it on him, but it's not his fault.


    but comfort her, she needs someone there for her.. she probably loves him. don't tell her he's not her life cause that'll just make it worse. just be there for her, that's what bestfriends are for.
    well what i would do is tell her that there are our boys and if she is a good looking person she will get a boyfriend in moth or so. and if she dose you can alwas tell her tyhat you we be there for her
    I think that just made it worse for you to say he's not her life. You should tell her how you feel. Say that you don't mean to be like an idiot but she hasn't been hanging out with you and tell her how you feel. She should understand.
    Dat happens wit me sometimes wit my frenz. What u do is u tell her that its ok and give her some time. After she gets over it call her and ask her if she wants 2 do something or if she wants to come over.
