celebrity gossip lainey image

GETitGIRL

The Freebie 5 is a list of 5 'unattainables' youâd have permission to tap without consequence from your significant other should the opportunity arise. The key to the Freebie Five is fantasy, whatever turns your crank. Also, they have to be celebrities. So, with that said, who would be on your list?

p.s. The concept came from Friends but was coined by Lainey from the celebrity gossip blog, laineygossip.com.
@sheloves, thanks for enlightening me? Take it easy, I obviously didn't know.

Answer
Ok since this is just fantasy I will go along.

1. Leonardo DiCaprio
2. Jake Gyllenhal "even though I'm disappointed in his choice of girlfriend these days!"
3. Idris Elba
4. Johnny Depp
5. The dude from Niki Minaj video.."Right through me!" He is FIOOONE!!!

What's popular among teenagers in Brazil? Is there Pop culture different then the USA?

Kelsey G

I'm in my Video Production class right now! So tell me, folks, Is places like Brazil's culture different then culture here in the United States? It would help if you could tell me what music, food, and clothing is popular among teenagers!
Thanks for the help, Kelsey!

Answer
Hi! Kelsey.

I'm Brazilian and I can sure you that Brazilian culture is very close to US culture. At least, in the big cities. Brazil is a common Western nation, so, the habits are very close.

Unfortunately, foreigners see not much news about Brazil and most information are not good. So, people tends to believe in stereotypes and generalizations. Most believe that Brazil is a poor nation (our GDP of 2 triliom dollars is largest than Canada and Italy) and Brazilians speak spanish...

Im' sure that you and your friends don't imagine that we have US immigrants in Brazil. Confederates iImmigrants of civl war.


WHAT BRAZILIANS DRESS LIKE
Teenagers dress like these (al are Brazilians, of course):
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GwcwYh2ckag
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t_rnDgApKvQ
(pictures "stolen" from Orkut.com, a site similar to MySpace)

HABITS AND MUSIC:
People watch cable TV, movies on the cinemas, and goes to churches, night clubs and parties. Music, beyBrazilianilan pop music, are the same: pop, roheavyevay metal, electronic and much more.

Some loves electronic music, and rave.Take a look:

www.youtube.com/watch?v=LsFLhg1xkhk


Not only teenagers but, adults, children and everybody dress and act just like in the USA, except national differences, of course.

Brazil is a multicultural and multi ethnic nation, just like USA. Most of Brazilian culture is European (holidays, dates, dancing, food, dressing etc.) and African (samba, carnival, some foods, etc).

Big cities are mainly like New York: very diverse with European, African, Arab, Jewish, Asiatic and US habits.

ETHNIAS
Brazil is a nation of immigrants and I have a good answer about ethnic groups in Brazil. You find most European traditions in the small cities or in ethnic communities at big metropolis like Rio and São Paulo, for example.

More than 25 nation of Europe immigrated to Brazil and other 25 from the rest of the World (USA, also) sent immigrants to colonize Brazil.

Brazil is the largest black nation outside Africa (more than 34 million of Blacks and mullatos), largest Portuguese nation (32 million of descendants), largest Italian nation outside Italy (25 million of descendants), second largest German population outside Germany (18 million), largest Arab nation outside MIddle East (15 million of descendants), largest Japanese population outside Japan (1.8 million) and we have millions of European descendants from Spain (15 million), 5 million of Slavic (2 million from Poland, 1 million from Ukraine, 300,000 from Russia, 250,000 from Hungary and the rest from Croatia, Czech Republic, Belarus and LIthuania, among others), 300,000 Scandinavians and 3.5 million of descendants of Dutch.

How could a map show Pacific Ocean before it was discovered?

latest news explorer image

Digital Ag

I read a news report on the Internet today about a map made by a German monk shortly after Columbus discovered America....but the map showed the Americas, completely, with the Pacific....and it hadn't been officially discovered! How do you explain this? Could there have been earlier discoveries not widely known?
Balboa didn't discover the Pacific until 1513; this map was made in 1494!

Answer
You have to realize that many of the discoveries made in the 1400's are still a mystery because in those days secrecy was essential. This specially applies to the portuguese explorations. The portuguese were the first europeans to explore the open Atlantic in the very early 1400's, almost 100 years before the spanish.

In the 1420's Portugal had allready disvovered the islands of the Azores, now part of Portugal, and they are almost in the middle between Europe and the americas. Many historians agree that probably Portugal already knew there were lands to the west because they were sailing across the open Atlantic for almost 70 years before Columbus.
For example in 1474 the portuguese explorer Joao Corte-Real was rewarded by the king with lands in the Azores for having discovered "the new lands of the country of cods", most probably today's Newfoundland and Labrador, since in 1500, 1501 and 1502 both his sons, Gaspar and Miguel where the official "discoverers" of Newfoundland and Labrador.

Curiously enough, Labrador was already known and called that way because in 1448, 50 years before Columbus, a portuguese explorer Joao Fernandes Lavrador sighted the enormous landmass, supposedly went ashore and realize it was either a massive island or a new continent.

Many historians say that that was the real reason why the portuguese king refused Columbus proposal of sailing westward to find a faster route to China and India, because he not only already knew that to the west you would reach a great mass of land that was not China nor India and especially because in 1488, 3 years before Columbus's voyage, the portuguese explorer Bartolomeu Dias sailed around Africa opening the sea route to India, the real on, fastest and more lucrative. What's strange is that since Columbus knew about this, since the portuguese king Joao II suspected there was a continent to the west, why did columbus insisted in leading the spanish to the west? One of the reasons was that he was a portuguese secret agent that was to "entertain" the spanish with the new lands to the west (that had no gold or spices, the spanish didn't make money from the americas untill the 1540's) and leave the portuguese alone with the multimillions sea route around Africa to India and China. Later events proved the portuguese were right, i the 1540's when finally spain managed to get some gold out of the americas, the portuguese had built and Empire, controlling all of Africa, the Persian Gulf, India, China, Malaysia, Indonesia and even Japan.

So it's not a great surprise that someday all these facts are definitely proven, but that map and others that have appeared are hard to date and are most probably either fakes or maps from the mid 1500's wrongly dated.

Airport layover time...how to fill the void?

popular news magazine in sweden image

Almass

I will be traveling to Sweden next month and will have a considerable amount of layover time in Chicago. What is the best thing to do to pass the time other than just sitting there bored out of my mind?

Answer
There are a lot of different things you can do.

-Not everyone likes this but I go and find a good spot to watch airplanes take-off and land.
-Bring a book or magazine with you to read.
-Some folks like to people-watch; they look at what other passengers look like or what they are wearing.
-I had a 7 hour lay-over in San Francisco. Fortunately I had a fully charged cell phone so I was able to call my friends and talk to people I have not called in a long time. It was a good way to catch-up with my friends and see how they are doing.
-Many people now bring a portable DCD player and watch movies.
-Others like to carry a laptop so they can get some work done.
-The iPod is really popular and lots of people will bring that along so they can listen to music.
-You can go to the stores at the airport and see what they are selling.
-If you are willing, some airlines sell a one-day pass to their lounge. You can relax there, watch TV and eat the snacks they serve for free.
-Many airports now have TVs showing the news. Many times passengers are watching the news.

What are probable scales in Sixth Central Pay Commission of India? Do you have any input to share with public?

latest news 6th central pay commission image

Welcome to any grapevine?

Answer
"Tuesday, February 12, 2008
Financial Express estimates 150% hike in pay
A news article of the Financial Express predicts 150% hike in the salary of Government Employee by Sixth Pay Commission.
Fine points of the reports are :
Pay Commission expected to submit its report next week.
Basic salaries are likely to rise by over 150%
Section officers will get a starting basic salary of Rs 20000, while their department heads, joint secretaries, would get a fixed basic salary of Rs 60000 a month.
Secretaries to the government would earn a fixed salary of Rs 75000 a month. A cabinet secretaryâs monthly salary would also be fixed at Rs 80000.
Government officials will continue to retire at 60 years and will now retire on December 31 of the year they reach age 60.
The points seem same as earlier published by Dainik Jagran."

THE FINANCIAL EXPRESS
"Pay panel estimates 150% civil service salary hike
Surabhi, Bipin Chandran
Posted online: Saturday , February 09, 2008 at 0208 hrs IST
New Delhi, Feb 8 Government salaries may literally give India Inc a run for its money, if one of the latest estimates of salary revisions by the Sixth Pay Commission is to be believed. Basic salaries are likely to rise by over 150%. However, the actual payout may be more moderated, as inclusive of all allowances, existing salaries are not far below the new slabs.
Section officers will get a starting basic salary of Rs 20,000, while their department heads, joint secretaries, would get a fixed basic salary of Rs 60,000 a month. Basic pay for section officers currently begins at Rs 8,000 a month.
Secretaries to the government would earn a fixed salary of Rs 75,000 a month. A cabinet secretaryâs monthly salary would also be fixed at Rs 80,000. At each grade, the 5.5 million central government employees would earn an inflation-neutralising dearness allowance (DA) of 6% of basic. The minimum scale for non-executives is likely to be hiked to Rs 6,500 a month, from the present Rs 2,550 a month.
The buzz around the Sixth Pay Commission has grown louder with the panel headed by Justice BN Srikrishna expected to submit its report next week. The good news, however, may just stop here. Contrary to expectations, government officials will continue to retire at 60 years. The plan to increase the retirement age has been shelved, according to the Pay Commission estimates, a copy of which is with FE. The Commission, though, is expected to recommend that officials will now retire on December 31 of the year they reach age 60.
Other allowancesâincluding DA, house rent and travel benefits, linked to basic payâwould also increase. DA would be hiked by 6% retrospectively from January 1, 2007 and 14% from this year, according to this estimate. House rent is proposed to be hiked by 30% of basic for metros, but with a cap of Rs 12,000. While the recommendations are effective from January 1, 2006, arrears would be given only from January 1, 2007."

What is your opinion of Guillermo on the Jimmy Kimmel show?

�4M�N!

He has a "teddy bear-like personality" according to Wikipedia lol

Answer
Guillermo's broken English (characterized most clearly with his constant pronunciation of the show's host as "Yim-ee") coupled with his affable likability and Teddy Bear-like quality have earned him as high a profile as any supporting personality on the show. Guillermo Díaz is the parking lot security guard for the show, and frequently serves as a celebrity gossip correspondent in a segment called "Guillermo's Hollywood Round-Up". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jimmy_Kimmel_Live --------------Guillermo Díaz Rodriguez (born January 27, 1971), widely known as Guillermo, is a talk show personality who rose to fame while working as a parking lot security guard at the El Capitan Theatre for American late night talk show Jimmy Kimmel Live.
Career
He quickly became a permanent, nightly cast-member after performing satisfactorily in comedy bits written by the show.

Guillermo's broken English (characterized most clearly with his constant pronunciation of the show's host as "Yim-ee") coupled with his affable likability and Teddy Bear-like quality have earned him as high a profile as any supporting personality on the show. Guillermo has taken over main red-carpet interviewing duties from Kimmel's original choice for such events, "Uncle Frank" Potenza.

Guillermo's signature segment is "Guillermo's Hollywood Roundup", in which Guillermo, dressed in a cowboy outfit and pretending to twirl a special effect operated lasso, makes mockery of entertainment news shows featured widely on television. From outside the theater and standing next to his West Coast Customs-made "Guillermobile", he'll answer inquires directed at him from Kimmel about the latest tabloid stories by simply taking a rack of tabloid magazines that the "Guillermobile" has been fitted with and attempting to interpret the stories in usually an unintentionally and amusingly mis-translated way.

Another popular and recurring bit is announcing that Guillermo has a role in a current or recent major motion picture release and showing a clip of an at-first familiar trailer for said movie with Guillermo humorously edited in, his appearance often made-up to resemble a character in the movie. One of the more popular ones had been when he impersonated Matt Damon's character of Jason Bourne in The Bourne Ultimatum by responding when asked to be named, "I am Yay-son...the Bourne..Identity." A physical fight between Guillermo and Matt Damon's actual character ensued. He starred alongside Jimmy Kimmel in Boo! an spoof of Saw.

We don't care about the lives of celebrities, so why do gossip magazines shove it in our faces?

Gooding Cl

I swear, the media makes a bigger deal out of Jennifer Aniston's hair cut, some idiot celebrity adopting a cat, and so on and so forth. But in reality, I feel as though most of America does not care. The reason anyone is forced to give a damn is because E! News and Star magazine put it in nice bright lettering.

Does anyone else feel this way about gossip magazines?

Answer
I believe you are part of the minority of americans who believes that. Most americans are bombarded 24/7 365 with celebrity news whether it be gossip rags,the local/national news,television programs,movies,music,sports grammys,oscars,espys etc... I agree it is ridiculous that more people know whats going on with Lindsy effin Lohan or Derek Jeter than whats going on with congress and the white house.It's our culture but I really wish people would make the separation between entertainment and obsession.

How can i get in touch with someone from South Korea?

latest news south korea image

Yessirr

I am doing a project for a management class, and i have to think of a product that would be controversial over there and plan a way to introduce it to the country, like a marketing pitch. Any ideas of a product or any thoughts on how i can get in contact with an individual from south korea that could help me???

Answer
don't know if you've seen much news, but american beef is pretty controversial over here. you could do some research about that, then think of a good way to market it here. they say they are afraid of it because of mad cow disease, but the truth is their domestic beef industry would be crushed to let in lower priced beef from the states, so they put out a lot of propaganda to scare their people out of eating it. I've heard they also thaw it and refreeze it a couple of times before it gets to the shelves to lower the quality. Korean raised beef is ridiculously expensive. Also, they force their children to study until late at night in private institutes and such every night. You could think of some kind of leisure game or program for children to do instead of studying. How about a book or program that teaches you how to talk back to your boss? Their culture is built on obeying people older than you without question (you would almost never see someone in a managment position over people their senior).

What are your (As Citizens of these countries) viewpoint's about the growing threat of North Korea?

Tyler

Every hour of everyday you read something in the news articles about North Korea threatening another country (particularly US, Japan and South Korea). Their threats have done nothing but increase over the months (years actually) without any strong response from these nations, except sanctions.

I think sanctions are somewhat the right approach, but at the same time we're hurting the innocent citizens of North Korea. Starving them.

Remember back in the 90's how some regimes started threatening other countries? The other countries didn't respond until they seen the regime were not talking anymore but killing. We had a chance to stop it before it got bad but we waited until it was too late...

We hear what the Gov't has to say but my questions to you are:

What are your viewpoint's on this situation?
How do you think we can stop the threats without war?
Do you think countries like Japan, US & SK should attack now to stop the growing dangers?
What do you think about North Korea threatening countries with "Preemptive Nuclear Strikes"?
Do you think war is the only solution? (I don't, especially nuclear!!)



I want to see and hear what you, the Citizens of these Countries have to say. Your voices matter and should always be heard!

Answer
Threats don't Impress me. Actions- Do. And I don't see N. Korea doing Anything- to back up Their Threats.

Answer
Supreme Court to consider hearing case challenging Obamaâs citizenship

By James Janega ⢠Chicago Tribune ⢠December 3, 2008


The U.S. Supreme Court will consider Friday whether to take up a lawsuit challenging President-elect Barack Obamaâs U.S. citizenship, a continuation of a New Jersey case embraced by many opponents of Obamaâs election.
Advertisement

The meeting of justices will coincide with a vigil by the filerâs supporters in Washington on the steps of the nationâs highest court.

The suit originally sought to stay the election, and was filed on behalf of Leo Donofrio against New Jersey Secretary of State Nina Mitchell Wells.

Legal experts say the appeal holds little chance for success, despite appearing on the courtâs Dec. 5 schedule. Legal records show it is the tip of an iceberg of nationwide efforts seeking to derail Obamaâs election over accusations that he either wasnât born a U.S. citizen or that he later renounced his citizenship in Indonesia.

The Obama campaign has maintained that he was born in Hawaii, has an authentic birth certificate, and is a ânatural-bornâ U.S. citizen. Hawaiian officials agree.

Among those filing lawsuits is Alan Keyes, who lost to Obama in the 2004 Illinois Senate race. Keyesâ suit seeks to halt certification of votes in California. Another suit by a Kentucky man seeks to have a federal judge review the copy of Obamaâs original birth certificate â which Hawaii officials say is locked in a state vault.

Other suits have been filed by Andy Martin, whose case was dismissed in Hawaii, and by a man in Ohio whose case also was dismissed. Five more cases have been filed and dismissed in Hawaii by a person currently suing the âPeoples Association of Human, Animals Conceived God/s and Religions, John McCain (and) USA Govt.â The plaintiff previously sought to sue Wikipedia and âAll News Media.â

The most famous case questioning Obamaâs citizenship was filed in Pennsylvania in August on behalf of Philip J. Berg and sought to enjoin the Democratic National Committee from nominating Obama. An appeal was denied by the U.S. Supreme Court.

Earlier, a federal judge rejected it for âlack of standing,â which in this case means that, because the plaintiffâs alleged injury is shared equally by everyone else, the matter should be left for decision by the Electoral College or Congress rather than the courts, said legal scholar Eugene Volokh of the University of California at Los Angeles.

The remaining case with the highest profile is Donofrio v. Wells. Because it was distributed by Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas to other justices for conference, it gained undue importance among people with little knowledge of Supreme Court processes, Volokh said.

Many petitioners seeking stays of pending events have their cases distributed to the full court, he said. Of those, Volokh found 782 were denied in the last eight years while just 60 were heard â and not all of those cases were successful.

Can you help me find evidence that the Tea Parties started under Bush?

Uncle Penn

I've heard this said, but I can't find any evidence. Things like a newspaper article dated in 2008 or earlier, news video, etc. Something to show the Tea Party rallies started before Obama was President. Please supply links.

Thanks.

Answer
It didn't

It started in Feb 2009. To say otherwise is plain dishonest. NOTHING started until the current president entered office.

Ron Paul supporters put together some protests in 2007/2008 concerning the Federal Reserve and against the wars that some say are the roots but they have LITTLE to do with the party now. It was really about raising money.

http://www.boston.com/news/local/massachusetts/articles/2007/12/16/ron_paul_raises_millions_in_todays_boston_tea_party_event/

http://www.bostonherald.com/news/us_politics/view.bg?articleid=1051232

On January 24 2009, Trevor Leach, chairman of the Young Americans for Liberty in New York State organized a "Tea Party" in 2009 in response to over 100 new or higher taxes proposed by New York Governor David Paterson and increasing government interference in the free markets using the proposed soda "obesity tax" to symbolize the original Boston Tea Party. Several of the protesters wore indian headdresses similar to the band of 18th century colonists who dumped tea in Boston Harbor to express outrage about British taxes."

http://centralny.ynn.com/content/all_news/132356/a--tea-party--to-protest-paterson-s-taxes/

"New York Times journalist Kate Zernike reported that leaders within the Tea Party credit Seattle blogger and conservative activist Keli Carender with organizing the first Tea Party in February 2009, although the term "Tea Party" was not used."

http://www.nytimes.com/2010/02/28/us/politics/28keli.html

Since its inception in February 2009, the Tea Party movementâwith the help of viral videos and social networking sites, such as Facebook and Twitterâalmost instantly found a large and loyal following that has gained traction and supporters.

In fact, Gallup poll in late March 2010 revealed that 28% of Americans have a positive perception of the Tea Party movement.

A Televised Birth of a Movement

CNBC's Rick Santelli is widely credited with launching the grassroots movement. While standing on the floor of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange on February 19, 2009, he unleashed what can only be called a rant against the Obama Administration's proposal to help homeowners facing foreclosure refinance their mortgages."

Where are Obama & Congress headed on the Sequester & the Federal budget?

latest news benghazi image

Andy F

Does anybody in here know?

Or are we so fascinated by the latest news over the Boston Marathon bomber, and the 3 women who had been kept in confinement in Cleveland, and the accusations over Benghazi, that we've all forgotten last month's hot arguments over deficits and budget cuts to social and military programs?

Answer
Nobody's going to care until Obama is long out of office and all the consequences from this are conveniently blamed on whoever the next sucker is to take residency in the White House.

The word terrorist is a non-specific, inaccurate and unscholarly word. Its a major stumbling block to dealing?

Smoking Jo

...with Muslim countries we wish to build positive relationships with, which is our only chance of ever eliminating radical islam.
Why are Conservatives so stuck on this word?
"An act of terror" is a far more accurate description, and there still isn't proof it was Al Qaeda at Benghazi.

Answer
It's the mis-direction to fan the flames of violence towards a video to divert attention from security measures due to policy in the middle east.

The only way the incumbent can score points is for a disciple whose suppose to be just an impartial moderator, not a referee, to step in the picture at a moment's request making herself look foolish as she later recanted her interference, but still blame the use of the wrong word somewhat threw her off.

http://news.yahoo.com/candy-crowley-self-destructs-070000864.html

The terror act the incumbent claims he addressed gave the notion it could be anyone like serial rapist, murderers, bandits & street thugs terrorizing the neighborhood despite prior attacks by Islamist group (bent on destroying western society & culture) that the Libyan President affirmed to be a 'Predetermined Preemptive Terrorist Attack', Email & Request for more Security from Amb. Stevens, & Drone Evidence.

A coptic christian fed up with the injustices perpetrated by islamist in the middle east are the perfect scapegoat with this administration to adhere to UN resolution 1618 as the incumbent displayed in his U.N. speech even appearing in 5 talk (view, letterman, Innovision) shows for weeks tauting on the video as responsible for the attack & deaths of 4 Americans on the night of 9/11, 'NOT' the policy & security measure the incumbent has implemented in the mid east, & specially middle eastern Islamist terrorist vent on group that is "SUPPOSED TO BE ON ITS HEELS".

http://js.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2206105/White-House-admits-attack-Libya-killed-ambassador-Chris-Stevens-act-terror.html?openGraphAuthor=%2Fhome%2Fsearch.html%3Fs%3D%26authornamef%3DMichael%2BZennie

A subordinate following policies put in place has balls to take responsibility before the one in charge promoting & putting in place policies that even lara logan disagrees with in tackling islamist ideologue extremist-ism, tells me that the wrong person is occupying the office who's chair has been vacant the last 4 years for leisure, fame, & glory sake whether it be in house concert, party, dinner, celebrity presence, talk show atmosphere, etc. as eye candy for the public away from security briefings & other strenuous administrative duties.

State secretary taking the bullet for the security failures of benghazi does not excuse the administration's attempt or scheme to redirect focus or jin up protest over a video through amb. to U.N rice who takes orders from the executive house in an attempt to water down danger & return of Al Queda in the spotlight in an attempt to be sensitive to islamist under UN resolution 1618 that essentially over rides the 1st amendment.

Rice on sunday News outlet "THIS WAS NOT A PREMEDITATED PREEMPTIVE ATTACK".

http://www.policymic.com/articles/16154/lara-logan-60-minutes-reporter-openly-blasts-obama-for-being-soft-on-terrorism

http://www.examiner.com/article/benghazi-attack-becoming-white-house-cover-up-scandal

http://www.humanevents.com/2012/10/10/bombshell-security-officer-testifies-that-state-dept-ignored-his-request-for-more-protection-in-benghazi/

Jumping the gun seems to become a habit for this administration whether it's to misdirect to a video or to proclaim victory over Islamist terrorist group that hasn't surrendered unconditionally. The incumbent should have delivered a speech on an aircraft carrier that had accomplished their mission (tour) with a banner 'mission accomplish' above the podium.

(Guys opinion) who do u believe is the most attractive Celebrity and why (dont just say looks)?

celebrity gossip india image

Ayah Tarra

Lemme know thanks!

Answer
I think each country has attractive female celebrities, e.g. Kumiko Takeda of Japan, Wang Tsu-Hsien of Republic of China, Aishwarya Rai of India, Olga Kurylenko of the Soviet Republics, Kate Beckinsale of England, Kristen Kreuk of Canada, Monica Bellucci of Italy, Kelly Hu of Hawaii, Felicia Lee of Singapore, etc. I can only judge mainly by their looks, for I haven't met most of them, and I don't read celebrity gossip rags. Kumiko Takeda is the most beautiful lady I've seen in person, and she's nice to everyone around the world I hear. Some celebrities and vain and egotistical, but she isn't. She was born in Fukuoka, Japan and moved to California where I met her. Wang Tsu-Hsien has visited California, and she was a spoiled brat to everyone. Some of my Chinese friends dealt with her, and they now depise her.

Why do so many People ( men/Women ) like younger Sex Partners???

italianfuk

If you look into Human Prehistoric Archeology/Anthropology studies; it clearly shows how women were married as early as 14 yrs old. however there many factors at stake as well. In India/ Asia many were( continue ) arranged marriages. is this some kind of form of Pre-Pedophila marriage(s)? or just another story in human history? according to Med Reasearch a girl becomes a woman at the stage of Menses begins, she's able to concive a child. In fact many clinics/Hospitals ( WorldWide ) are pushing for Humanity to Bear children at younger ages ( ex. 21-35 yrs old ). Even though a 21 year old is consider legally an adult; does this put idealistic views on Early Procreation in young people. Many youth today are still confused as to when to concive a child. Many are still marrying at an early age.Then let's look at the Media, Society as a whole. Are We Humanity trying 2 justifiy are Prehistoric Ancestors animalistic sexual appetites?? or it's ok when young female celebritys gossip about sex??

Answer
It's all about survival of the fittest and an unbroken line of DNA making it to the future.

The more youthful females display more of the attributes our lizard-brains are programed to seek: firm bodies, taut breasts, shapely buttocks and full, red lips. All signals of sexual vigor and physical health.

Men have a tendency to keep many of their "signals" in tact far longer: upper-body development, firm midsection, confident baring, etc. Also men have the additional advantage of sending out signals beyond the physical that the female of the species also respond to: tribal status (money/popularity); quick situational response and superior tactical skills (smart/funny); wisdom and leadership (age/emotional maturity).

Also men can (are are supposed to) procreate for nearly all of their lives. A reasonably healthy 80 year-old man can (and sometimes, according to the news, sometimes does) impregnate a teen-age girl and wider society's primary response is "Go get 'em, you old fox!" While an older woman, subject to the same primal "turn-ons" men are, would be considered a dirty old witch who's probably "paying for it".

And BTW, we have the same "animistic appetites" we did in the Stone Age, only our facades have evolved to keep pace with artificial (i.e.man-made) societal mores and the laws we pass to enforce them.

God, on the other hand, makes beautiful young women.

What do Chinese Americans miss/longing most from their past/fond memories of China?

popular news in the 90s image

Q. What do you want to recollect or experience here in LA not as in history books,articles but in real hands on/physical/emotional experiences?
Do you know any stories of your parents, talk about their past, happy memories of their life in China?

I added two more questions. I need answers from anybody who can share their stories for my assignment. Thank you so much.

Answer
Well, by migrating to the west, we practically cut ourselves off from the happy memories of China.
Read the news, it's always something negative when they remember to report about China, so the media's propaganda pretty much washes off our happy memories about home.

I, for one part, miss the close relations with other people, when every close neighbour was trusted keys to our apartment. And in the early 90s when there was no air conditioning, the neighbors would bring their sheets to sleep on our floor because 1st floor is always cooler than the others. When someone was sick or got into trouble, the whole neighborhood, or colleagues at work gets mobilized, and help wherever they can. Now it's different, the fast economic development has broken this close tie between people.

Then collectivism, the protection the government provided to the people. During the 1998 flood, the young soldiers actually formed human dams to prevent the raging water from destroying our dis, they fought day and night, shouting slogans like "I live, the dam lives." Many drowned, some fell asleep on the sidewalk, it was a sight that would never be forgotten. You would say it non-human, but the fact that the military put the lives and properties of the civilians on top of their soilders makes the communist army a lot more popular among the population. The way the western government reacts to natural disasters is a shame compared to this.

With all the paid programming on cable TV and the lousy channels shouldn't cable be free?

sechott

I am so tired of flipping thru the channels on TV and finding nothing worth watching, I believe we as customers deserve better quality for the price we pay.

Answer
Well your quest is in vain for two reasons.

1) The money you are paying is for the service of broadcasting additional television stations to your house through a more sophisticated and decentralized network called cable, or a more scientific and highlypowered satelitte network. Both of which costed millions of dollars to impliment and create to provide those channels to you.

You are paying for programming that you will not watch, the advertisements there pay for it to not be $500 a month for you to use the service and pay off the cable companies installation.

2) The reason that there are so many advertisements is because the fact that the advertisers help contribute to the opperating costs of the cable people. for most shows, its a 43/17 split. Meaning that out of every hour of programming, 43 minutes is primary showing, and 17 minutes is going to be commercials and advertsements.

Solutions:

1) you could stop flipping channels like a person who grew up in the 90s, and you can use something called TV guide channel, or for dish network people, just hit your menu button and look up your local programming.

2) Stop whining about how much it costs and invest that money in internet service. That way you still get your moneys worth while you can browse television from things like Hulu and other programming sites. That way you can watch whatever you want to watch and not have to bother people like us with your innane questions and complain about how much you hate something you wont cut off yourself.

3) your least popular solution is to cut off your connection to the cable company alltogether and live off of Broadcast TV. This is unadvisable unless you watch primetime shows like NCIS, NCIS: LA, Glee, and other highty tighty teenage sex shows. This also gives you your local news.

So there are your solutons.

When was Queen Elizabeth II's coronation?

latest news queen elizabeth ii image

Lostinthes

Answer
Queens Coronation: 2 JUNE 1953,


Her father's health declined during 1951, and Elizabeth was soon frequently standing in for him at public events. She visited Greece, Italy and Malta (where Philip was then stationed) during that year. In October, she toured Canada and visited President Harry S. Truman in Washington, D.C. In January, 1952, Elizabeth and Philip set out for a tour of Australia and New Zealand. They had reached Kenya when word arrived of the death of her father, on 6 February 1952, from lung cancer.

Elizabeth was staying at the Treetops Hotel in Thika (today just two hours away from Nairobi) when she was told of her father's death and of her own succession to the throne â a unique circumstance for any such event. She was the first British monarch since the accession of George I to be outside the country at the moment of succession, and also the first in modern times not to know the exact time of her accession (because her father had died in his sleep at an unknown time). On the night her father died, the Chief Justice of Kenya Sir Horace Hearne, who would later accompany the Royal Party back to the UK, escorted the Princess Elizabeth, as she then was, to a dinner at the Treetops Hotel, which is now a very popular tourist retreat in Kenya. It was there that she "went up a princess and came down a Queen."

It was Prince Philip who broke the news of her father's death to Elizabeth. After that, Martin Charteris, then Assistant Private Secretary to the new Queen, asked her what she intended to be called. "Why, my own name; what else?" she replied. The royal party returned immediately to the United Kingdom.

Elizabeth II's Proclamation of Accession was read at St James's Palace, on Thursday, 7 February 1952. In Canada, a separate proclamation was issued by the Queen's Privy Council for Canada on the same day.

The following year, the Queen's grandmother, Queen Mary, died of lung cancer on 24 March 1953. Reportedly, the Dowager Queen's dying wish was that the coronation not be postponed. Elizabeth's coronation took place in Westminster Abbey, on 2 June 1953. Her coronation gown, commissioned from Norman Hartnell, was embroidered with the floral emblems of the countries of the Commonwealth: the Tudor rose of England, the Scots thistle, the Welsh leek, shamrock of Ireland, wattle of Australia, the maple leaf of Canada, the New Zealand fern, South Africa's protea, two lotus flowers for India and Ceylon, and Pakistan's wheat, cotton and jute.

Who should i do my biography on?

K Y

I am a teenage girl that loves, horses, piano, flute, soccer, painting, reading, science, and anything really!! i need a biography ASAP!!! could anybody tell me a biography of auto biography that i might enjoy? (btw it is for a project :p)
whenever i said of i meant or... autobiography or biography

Answer
Composer Andre Previn -- his family had to flee Germany with no money under the Nazis and he became quite famous for Hollywood film-scores and later as an international conductor. he REALLY made the news when he married the lovely Mia Farrow who was a huge actress of her day (*Peyton Place*, and others.):

http://www.amazon.com/Andre-Previn-biography-Martin-Bookspan/dp/0385151578/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1301633677&sr=8-1

Renowned world-class soprano Maria Callas is also incredibly interesting (and a tragic figure in many ways) Jackie-O came along and stole her man!:

http://www.amazon.com/Greek-Fire-Callas-Aristole-Onassis/dp/0446610763/ref=sr_1_14?ie=UTF8&qid=1301633868&sr=8-14

If you REALLY want out on the fringe, do your work on Vidkun Quisling (the synonym for *traitor* in Europe) because most Americans have never heard of him -- but a really rotten guy who played a major role in WW II:

http://www.amazon.com/Quisling-Treachery-Hans-Fredrik-Dahl/dp/0521041155/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1301634132&sr=8-3

And of course, Elizabeth Taylor just died and so that would certainly be a relevant biography and there's tons of stuff on her -- her *orneriest* time was during the filming of the epic, *Cleopatra* (around 1963) -- that's where she met and fell in love with Richard Burton (while she was still wed to Eddie Fisher!)

Elizabeth I, Queen of England, was a huge success (in terms of her own agenda) and she reigned for a very long time and overcame many obstacles.


Oh, I could go on and on...! :)

Have you ever cross dressed for a costume party or any other reason?

latest news on kim kardashian image

NY789

I am going to a costume party soon and thought it might be a good laugh to dress up in drag and pretend to be a woman. Have you ever dressed as the opposite gender for a costume, what did you dress as and how good did you look? And do you have any suggestions?

Answer
Both my bf and I have cross dressed for Halloween. He wasn't exactly like a full on drag queen, he was a "Hogette", it's a group of guys that dress up kind of like women but put on a hog nose. Washington Redskins fans are the ones that do this.

A few years later I dressed up like a scary looking hobo. I got some of my bf's old jeans and old t-shirt with a camo jacket, got them really dirty. I tore the toes to an old pair of loafers I had and put on this scary looking old man mask and a beanie. And I carried an empty bottle of Busch in a paper sack. It was hilarious, one of the best costumes of the night.

Think about a woman that has been in the news like Lindsey Lohan in jail, or Angelina Jolie with a ton of kids attached to you, or Kim Kardashian with the huge butt, you can let people put drinks on it. Make it funny like that, because a full on drag like RuPaul might come across weird. I hope this helps. Have fun!

Do you think the world was a better place when the news had to be delivered on horseback?

Tina

Don't you feel like they had more time for accuracy back then?

Answer
Not so much as a matter of accuracy......it was a matter of sending only the news that was actually worth a damn to anyone. Back when men were men, and delivered news WORTH risking their lives to deliver.

Tell me.........how much do you know about Kim Kardashian or Lindsay Lohan?

How did we go from that...............to breathless reporting about Lindsay Lohan's latest lesbian spat and drug bust? Who the hell NEEDS any of that info? Yet we are BOMBARDED by it.

Who CARES how Micheal Jackson died.......he was abusing drugs.........end of story.

What is worse: celebrity gossip or followers of it?

celebrities gossip and image

Jayme Wigh

If you are into celebrity gossip, you are in need of a lobotomy. Can't you see that following celebrity gossip causes you to lose brain cells? There is nothing entertaining about celebrity gossip, nor is there anything to feel good about. Is your entertainment level that low that you feel the need to follow the PERSONAL lives of needless celebrities? Followers of celebrity gossip are the reason popular entertainment sucks today and the reason other countries HATE us.

Answer
This is so true. The people who publish or commentate on celebrities are just doing their job as a profession whether it be a reporter, a journalist, a photographer or a person doing a 'simple' interview with a celebrity, but all this is not necessarily true information, stories, videos and photos are and can be made up to catch the public eye even if the information is completely false people will buy it. So I think it's the followers that are worse because they sometimes seem to believe anything and everything.

Why are chain letters making a come back?

popular news in 2011 image

Katey

I remember as a kid hearing and reading chain letters and how if you read them you will die and such. Have they always been around sense or is this fad becoming popular again?

Answer
The short answer is that there's never a shortage of newbies to frighten, guilt-trip or otherwise dupe with these chain letters, and unfortunately there are always trolls restarting them again.

They're not just a recent thing, but this junk seems to migrate from platform to platform with each new thing on the net.

When email was all the rage, chain letters spread over it like wild fire.

This article talks about why chain letters are so bad and why they perpetuate. It has a paragraph on the "Facebook is charging/shutting down!" hoaxes, which, most recently was restarted by that false news site Weekly World News, but started out on the net in the 90s as "Hotmail/MSN/aOL is shutting down!"

Then Myspace came along, and the chain letters junked that up.

Example, the Carmen Winstead/Jessica Smith sewer-girl forward-or-die chain letter hoax.

http://chainsmashers.mixxt.com/networks/forum/thread.130190

Then Facebook, Youtube, Twitter, and even Blackberry Messenger. Facebook is where much of the chain letters that were originally on email, migrated to.

Case in point, Amy Bruce, the sick kid hoax that just keeps cropping up every so often. It went around in email in the late 90s, and took facebook by storm in the fall of 2011.

http://chainsmashers.mixxt.com/networks/forum/thread.191122

Why do Democrats think they are helping the poor by support millionaires with wallstreet connections?

Hob

The rich vs poor thing seems to be a popular go to argument for Democrats these days. I wonder if they see any irony in supporting a bunch of millionaires and billionaires in that party who take just as much money from corporations and special interests as Republicans. I'm not saying Republicans aren't also rich and well connected but they don't play up this "i wanna help the poor" bit as much as the Democrats do.
correction: supporting*

As far as the class warfare stupidity......the dems bring new meaning to the word hypocrisy.
