christmas photo cards

  • Question:-what is a practical and creative way to display our Christmas photo cards from friends and family?
    I'll get about 100 christmas photo cards from friends and family over the next month. What is a creative and attractive way to display them in my home? Most of the cards are flat, like a large post card. My house is very small.

    Answer:-Well, I always put our cards up on our fireplace mantle with some decorations...I do that for every holiday. We don't get 100 cards though, that many cards up there would look tacky.

    If you don't have a fireplace, maybe find another type of ledge to put them on? You dont really need to display all of them, do you?
  • Question:-Would it be strange to send out Christmas photo cards with only a single adult on it?
    I love photo cards at Christmas and would like to personally send them out. Unfortunately I don't have a husband or family so I'm wondering if it would be strange to put a picture of just myself on a card. Thoughts?

    Answer:-That's fine I don't find it strange! My mom always sends out photos of me alone and my sister alone.. cause my family likes to see how different I look haha !


    Hope I helped & Merry Christmas,
    Laura
  • Question:-Where can I get templates for Christmas photo cards?
    I'm trying to make some Christmas cards but where can I get the template?

    Answer:-Well, you can go here http://www.VistaPrint.com and upload photos into the different designs they offer.

    Or if you want to make and print them yourself there is this http://www.dcmag.co.uk/10_Christmas_card_templates.YSb6_hlokZSIBw.html

    or maybe here? http://crafts.lovetoknow.com/wiki/Free_Ideas_for_Making_Your_Own_Christmas_Card_Templates

    If you put "christmas card templates" in quotes just like that into Google, you'll end up with a ton of options.
  • Question:-Who does the best Christmas photo cards online? Cutest and best price??
    I'm looking for ones where you can put multiple pictures and use them as Christmas cards. I don't want to pay an arm and a leg though.

    Answer:-hallmark.com
  • Question:-Which company offers the best deal on Christmas photo cards?
    I have been able to find prices on photo cards from several companies already (walgreens, CVS, Snapfish). But I am curious if anyone knows of anywhere really cheap to get 4x8 photo cards. The prices I have found so far are around $32 - $39 for 60 cards (The amount I need is 60). Is there any better deal?

    Answer:-Hallmark
  • Question:-When you send photo Christmas cards, do you also write a message on the back of the photograph?
    For the first time this year I orderd photo christmas cards and now I am wondering if I need to write a personal note to each recipient on the back of the photograph? What do people usually do with these sorts of cards? Thanks!

    Answer:-yesterday i received one of those types of Christmas cards from a good friend of mine. I haven't really spoke to them in quite a while since they moved out of state. It was sad that there was nothing attached to the card, not even a quick hi hand written on it. So here's what I think you should do: if you are sending your Christmas card to someone you see all the time then no, leave it just as it is and put it in the envelope and send it off. If it's to someone that you don't see very much, don't talk to very much or stuff like that go ahead and type up a quick letter saying what you were up to that last year. It's nice to read about what has been going on. Hope this helps. Happy Holidays!
  • Question:-Do you like receiveing photo Christmas cards, or do you prefer traditional Christmas cards?
    I don't mind the photo cards if they fold so that I can display them. But of course I always am happy to receive a card. :)

    Answer:-I like the photo cards better. Especially when it is from someone I don't see that often.
  • Question:-What kind of paper is the paper they use to make Christmas Photo cards?
    I am looking for that hard glossy paper to make christmas photocards...what is this paper called and how can i buy some?

    Answer:-
  • Question:-Will you be sending out those family photo Christmas cards this year?
    I think we are going to. I've been looking on-line for inspiration. What are you planning to do for your Christmas cards this year?
    Alex! That is precious!!!!
    Rosie, I can't see the link. :-(

    Answer:-I did this last year. I got christmas cards made up with my son's picture on it. We decorate our tree right after thanksgiving (black friday) so this gave us plenty of time to add in a dvd of my son decorating the tree. My husband made a video online using a chipmunk christmas song...and had my son put ornaments on the tree while we video taped him and pose for pictures that also went into the dvd. We sent them to our close relatives and friends that could not join us for christmas.
  • Question:-Should I write on Christmas photo cards?
    This year I ordered Christmas photo cards from a website, and they already have a holiday message and our name printed on them (next to a photo of us). Should I write something on the card to make it more personal? Where should I write it - on the front or back? What should I write given that the card already says season's greetings, happy holidays, and our names?

    Answer:-I was wondering the same thing. In the past I haven't, but it is nice when you receive cards from others with a personal message, so this year I probably will. I think on the back- there is more space to write. Make it personal to the recipient, not general. I know it will take me a lot of time though!

state college pa

  • Question:-Where are good rock climbing sites in State College PA?
    I'm a student going to Penn State in State College, PA and I'm interested in rock climbing. Are there any good rock gyms near State College or good out-door spots there?

    Answer:-Try this:

    http://www.rockclimbing.com/cgi-bin/routes/page.cgi?g=North+America/United+States/Pennsylvania

    I can't say that the info is the best. I live in NEPA and I can't find some of the places listed.

    Have you tried asking the guys in the gear store by Chili's downtown...I can't remember the name of the store.
  • Question:-Anyone have any suggestions for things to do for fun with kids in State College, PA?
    I have to take a business trip to State College PA and I am taking my family. We went there two years ago and couldn't do much with the kids aside from swim in the hotel pool and walk the streets and little downtown shops - which we will do again, but looking for other suggestions. My hubby will be stuck in the hotel with the kids - and will definitely need to get out after all of that!

    Thanks to everyone for your suggestions!

    Answer:-mostly outdoor stuff there star lite drive in theater. Indian caverns is cool, bellafonte railroad if fun season only though. Alan seeger :http://www.dcnr.state.pa.us/Forestry/oldgrowth/alanseeger.aspx is very cool I highly recommend it, it absolutely wreath the drive. also the Brice Jordan center has shows http://www.bjc.psu.edu/

    enjoy your stay:)
  • Question:-Some good lakes to fish in around State College Pa?
    Im looking for some good lakes to fish in around State College Pa for this weekend.

    Answer:-Centre & Huntingdon County area:

    http://fishandboat.com/hotspots.htm
  • Question:-If you live or have lived in state college, pa would you recommend it to a family moving there?
    My husband has recently taken a job in Pa and it is not at the college, and I was just reading on one of the forums that it is a gloomy little no culture town. Is this true?

    Answer:-If you're looking for a safe town with a terrific school district, then State College will fit the bill. It is still somewhat reasonable to live there as well.

    "No culture" - depends on your definition of culture. There are always festivals and such going on, especially during the summer. If you're a college football fan, then you're at a good place for tailgating and Big 10 excitement. The university has plenty going on at all times. Plus, you're an hour away from Harrisburg, and two hours away from Pittsburgh. The downtown area has plenty of little shops to keep you busy, plus it's very quaint. Parking is cheap, too.

    Naturally, the students dominate the town, so Christmas and summer are always more desirable if you're not into crowds.

    Happy Valley is a beautiful place, and summer and fall make up for the winters.
  • Question:-Where can I find a free or low cost kitten in or around State College, PA?
    My boyfriend and I have been on the search for a kitten forever. I didn't realize how hard this would be. We have been to all the pet stores and the shelters and there aren't any kittens. What we are looking for now is someone who's kitty had a litter and now needs to adopt out the kittens. If you know anyone near State College in that situation please respond. Thanks!

    Answer:-look in the newspaper in the pets section, where i live they have lots of cats that need homes. but i live like 10 states away from u.
  • Question:-Are there any good mom and pop jewelrs in State College Pa?
    I'm looking to avoid chains like zales or kay get a good deal on diamond earrings and tennis bracelet. Are there any independent jewlers in State College(by penn state main) that have good deals/service and quality products?

    Answer:-State college is like 120 miles from Philly
  • Question:-Looking for an affordable apartment in downtown State College, Pa. Any Ideas?
    I'm looking for a place for 3 or 4 guys in State College, PA. Hopefully close to campus (a few blocks). But we want to pay no more than 330 a month. Well, something around 250 would be perfect.

    Anyone know of a decent place to live downtown that's not expensive. If it's cheaper to go with 3 people in a 1br we'd do that, or if it's cheaper to go 4 in a 2br we'd do that too. Anyone have past experience of know of a nice place?

    THANKS!

    Answer:-http://pennstate.craigslist.org/

    http://pennstate.craigslist.org/apa/415293306.html

    3 in a 1 bdrm is really crowded. 4 in a 2 bdrm is more doable - either bunk beds in both bdrms or two twin beds in each if there's room, or futons! If any of you are handy, create some semi-loft bed frames. Have the bed about waist or chest height - easier to jump onto than a bunk, but lots of storage space underneath.

    4 x $250 = $1000
    4 x $330 = $1320

    Not real easy to find as they go fast, but keep looking! Don't forget to ask for the utilities history - depending on how well-built the place is (or isn't!) the utilities can really range.
  • Question:-What is located close to state college, pa that feels far from penn state's campus?
    I'm visiting my boyfriend this weekend and i know he is so sick of being on his college campus. What's around the town that we can do where he'll feel far away?

    Answer:-Not much!!! What I did when there was rent a hotel room in town, feels celebrity like compared to the dorm!
  • Question:-Fun with kids in State College PA?
    I have to take a business trip to State College PA and I am taking my family. We went there two years ago and couldn't do much with the kids aside from swim in the hotel pool and walk the streets and little downtown shops - which we will do again, but looking for other suggestions. My hubby will be stuck in the hotel with the kids - and will definitely need to get out after all of that!

    Thanks to everyone for your suggestions!

    Answer:-Well this summer my family and I went on summer vacation to State College and we found this really cool underwater cavern it is a short drive away but it is worth it there are a lot of things to do there.
    Here is a link to their website:
    http://www.pennscave.com/
    Another cavern to go to is Lincoln caverns and this is a walk through cavern it is also a fun activity to do with children.
    http://www.lincolncaverns.com/directions.html
    Whenever we are in the are we also try to stop at Lakemont Park it has children and adult rides, an ice skating rink and a minor league baseball stadium and a mall and restaurants right down the road.
  • Question:-Where is a small/big Yugioh Card tournament that you don't have to pay for in State College, PA?

family circus

  • Question:-What are some simple ideas for family circus act?
    I am looking for ideas for my family, there are my parents, me (21) and 3 sisters (16, 11, and 8) We have our family reunion/party next weekend and it's Circus themed. SO, we need a simple Circus act that we can do. It can be funny, or something really cool but simple and cheap is what we want! If you have any ideas please let me know!

    Answer:-
  • Question:-What is your opinion of Family Circus cartoons?
    Bill Keane, the creator of Family Circus. has just passed away.

    Answer:-
  • Question:-Should anyone associated with the Family Circus movie be permanently barred from Hollywood?
    The worst comic strip in history is being made into a movie, bought for $10 million no less. I think anyone who likes this comic is literally mentally retarded. Should anyone associated with making this abomination be permanently outlawed from working in Hollywood? I think so.

    Answer:-I always thought it was kind of funny, but definitely not worth a movie.
  • Question:-What will you remember most about the "Family Circus" comic strip?
    Bill Keane, the creator of the comic strip is dead at 89

    Answer:-
  • Question:-How do I write to:www.family circus?
    I wish to comment on the Family Circus cartoon in the Sunday paper on this date.7-2-06

    Answer:-Use Yahoo or Google...
  • Question:-Why is there no video clip of the Family Circus father on Family Guy online?
    The dad from the comic strip Family Circus makes a cameo on Family Guy. All of the videos on Youtube don't work or they say "this video has violated our terms of service." Why is this?
    What part out of the 4 parts?

    Answer:-Go to youtube and type in Family Guy- Dog Gone. Someone has it split into four parts. You should go check it out.

    Oh and it probably violated terms of service by uploading a video that the person didn't have the rights to. which is probably what will happen to those videos.

    ***LOOK AT PART TWO. I THINK THE SET UP TO THE SCIT IS CUT OFF FROM THE END OF PART ONE BUT THE SECOND STARTS OFF WITH BRIAN AT THE BAR WITH THE DAD.*****
  • Question:-Whom do you hate worse, Garfield or the people in The Family Circus?

    Actually India, I like all three!!! XD I'm asking others because I hear complaints.
    I like the Boondocks, too!

    Answer:-Family Circus. Garfield may be lame now, but at least it was once good.

    Nothing's been the same since Far Side and Calvin and Hobbs ended.
  • Question:-How can I find my "Circus family"?
    Really....I believe I was a trapeze artist who is stuck in the wrong body.

    Answer:-I believe we are all your family.
    Some of us just feel like Home, at least they do to me.
    ((((Hugz))))) & Blessings!
  • Question:-why do they still show Family Circus in the comics in the oregonian?
    over half the people that voted to replace peanuts said that they wanted to seee Family Circus leave too.
    Why do they still have it????????????

    Answer:-I've been wondering that for 10 years. It's not even funny. I think the newspapers are all afraid that if they remove Family Circus, that all the hard-headed Christains will start freaking out.
  • Question:-Is "Family Circus" one of your favorites on the comics page?
    Aren't Dolly, Billy, Jeffy and Pig Pen the best?

    Answer:-no, and Pig Pen is in Peanuts (I really hope you're trolling here...)

michelle duggar

  • Question:-How old is jim-bob and michelle duggar from 19 kids and counting 2011?
    I love the show 19 kids and counting:) but i have always wondered how old jim- bob and michelle duggar are. i would appreciate it if someone out there that knows could tell me:D

    Answer:-Jim Bob Duggar (born July 18,1965) he is 46.
    Michelle Duggar (born September 13,1966) she is 45.
  • Question:-Do you think this new mom of octuplets is giving Michelle Duggar a run for her money?
    The mom had 6 kids before taking more fertility treatments and then she had 8 more kids... a grand total of 14 kids! Seriously, after 6, wouldn't you think that's enough?

    Anyhow, do you think Michelle Duggar has some "healthy" competition now for the most kids under one roof? LOL.
    KItkat- I won't argue with you on that! I make think the Duggars are nutty, but at least they are self sustaining and don't live with their mother.

    What I meant by "a run for her money" regards the number of kids and media attention.
    Oh and another point- Michelle Duggar didn't use fertility treatments!

    Answer:-i think she is an idiot, she isn't even living at home. and she already had six. maybe it was a sign that's enough children your already living with your parents! your husband is going back to iraq. she is so selfish and i am disgusted that she would do such a thing. and my question is how are they going to afford it? and i feel bad for those kids they most likely wont have the greatest life unless TLc picks them which i don't think that they deserve it honestly.

    they are no match to the duggars because the duggars can support themselves they were all natural and planned and prepared! its not healthy ha ha.,

    but possibly competition....
  • Question:-Does Michelle Duggar look like she is high?
    Do you think that Michelle Duggar looks like she is high on some drugs often... I see her looking in the camera and off in space sometimes when she is thinking it seems to me like shes really high on something.

    Answer:-It's a wide-eyed glazed look that most cult members seem to have.
  • Question:-Why do people slam Michelle Duggar for having her older kids help out with the younger kids?
    At least it's within the family, you know? Most women go off and leave their kids in daycare pretty much all day and people say nothing bad about that. Why is it so wrong of Mrs. Duggar to have her kids help out?

    Answer:-
  • Question:-What do you think about Michelle Duggar being pregnant with her 19th child?
    Apparently they've decided to continue to have children until Michelle physically can't.
    Guys I didn't provide my own opinion, the additional note is a fact.

    Answer:-more power to her. I dont get why people think she is selfish. decades ago it wasn't abnormal to have big family, and in my opinion those generations seem to be more well adjusted then these crazy kids today
  • Question:-Do you think Anna Duggar and Michelle Duggar get along?
    Today on Good Morning America, Michelle and Jim Bob announced their 19th is on the way. Meredith Vieira said congrats and then asked Anna how she is feeling and to me it seemed like Michelle acted as if Anna was "stealing her spotlight". Even in Anna's responses to Merediths questions, she addressed Michelle as "Mrs.Duggar". I don't know about any of you all, but I call my Mother in Law by her first name. Just seems like Anna is not well liked by the "Original Duggar's".

    Answer:-I didn't call my mother in law much of ANYTHING the first 6 years of marriage, only started last year after 7 years and now that we've hit 8 I filed for divorce from her abusive son.

    I hope my ex never speaks of his family to me again.
    I know I wasn't liked by my ILs.

    I feel sorry for Anna but she knew what she was getting into when she married #1 of 19.......... :/
  • Question:-Kate Gosselin vs. Michelle Duggar. What do you think of both of these moms?
    I enjoy watching Jon & Kate Plus 8 as well as 17 Kids and Counting. I think the difference in the personality of Kate Gosselin and Michelle Duggar is interesting.

    What differences do you notice in the 2? What do you think about them, in general? Do you enjoy watching their TV shows?
    I relate better to Kate Gosselin. I admire Michelle Duggar's patience, but I don't think I could keep it together all the time like she appears to..lol.

    Answer:-I too, love both of the shows, and admire BOTH moms for what they do!! I feel I can better relate to Kate's parenting styles....and they keep it real for the camera's. However, Im not saying that Michelle is not keeping it real. As she is! They are the way they are, as they are deeply religious, and thats what they base their family values on. I dont think she's taking her children to the thrift store because they cant afford it, but simply because there's more to life than name brand clothing, and trying to fit in! I take my children to thrift shops, as well as I have enough pride to shop in them myself...and my family isnt struggling. Its just that materialistic crap doesnt mean anything to me. So I can relate to her better that way! I think they both are very patient loving moms, and I admire them both, because no way could I handle more than the 3 Im about to have!
  • Question:-What happens to Michelle Duggar on her 19th or 20th child?
    They say it is going to change their lives for ever? What does that mean? I am so worried for her. She could have a stroke what does that mean? If you are reading, I hope everything goes well.

    Answer:-haha i just saw this commercial like 10 minutes ago and ran to my computer to find out just wat ur asking!
    i had noooo idea she was having her 19th?! where was i....wowow
    anyways...she was supposed to hav her kid march 18th but instead had it like december 11th...it was only 25 weeks old. they were afraid the kid was going to have mental problems or complications because having a baby this early usually results in severe problems. i read theirs an 82% chance the baby will be fine...i havnt heard anything so far on the condition of the child but i think its ok since it hasnt hit big news tht its retarded or dead or anything like tht...but who knows. btw the childs name is Josie Brooklyn :)
  • Question:-What health risks is Michelle Duggar taking having so many kids?
    I don't care to hear peoples opinions on if what they are doing is right or wrong....just what she is risking health wise? How would that many kids affect her body?

    Answer:-every pregnancy comes with health risks whether it is your first or 19th. so obviously each time she gets pregnant she faces all of the "normal" risks.
    the baby she just had a few days ago was delivered by cesarean and i am pretty sure it was not her first c-section. having multiple c-sections can cause a lot of scar tissue and then complications from that. otherwise there's no risk that i know of from just being pregnant a lot. you are supposed to wait at least 6 months (probably varies based on who you ask) between pregnancies so your body can heal and the older you get the riskier the pregnancies become.
    but again, i am pretty sure that just being pregnant a lot does not negatively affect a woman's health.
  • Question:-What do you make of Michelle duggar having her 19th child?
    Do you think it's a bit much considering her youngest child is only 8 months, and she will become a grandmother next month?

    What do you think of her views on no prenatal testing?

    Do you think it's a good idea to have a large family?


    Would you prefer a small or large family, how many?

    Answer:-Do you think it's a bit much considering her youngest child is only 8 months, and she will become a grandmother next month?


    Well, in a purely human logic sense, I do think it's a bit much and worry about her health. But knowing their beliefs on having as many children as God is willing to give them I am not shocked and would expect them to do nothing less. I mean, you don't get 18 kids by saying, hmmmm I think we'll shoot for 18 and stop. They said, we will leave it to God, period. That doesn't mean they stop having sex, doesn't mean they change their mind when God gives'em too much, it just means they'll leave it to God. You don't renig on your beliefs midway through...even if they don't make good sense to other people.


    What do you think of her views on no prenatal testing?

    They do prenatal testing. We've seen a million ultrasound visits and doctor visits. Maybe you are talking about the amnio test. I'm in agreement with that. From what I understand it doesn't fix anything, they just tell you if your child is likely to have Down's Syndrome and that gives you the chance to abort him or her before they are born. If you KNOW you wouldn't abort your child what's the point in having that test? If you are talking about some other tests, I dunno. I didn't realize they skipped the health checkup parts.


    Do you think it's a good idea to have a large family?

    For some, I do. It's up to them and God. My only concern ever with these folks or those like them is that they are truly caring for, loving and protecting their children adequately. And of course, you can't tell that by watching t.v. no matter how close to 'reality' it's supposed to be. Assuming no one or 3 people (most likely the oldest girls) are being overburdened by family chores and that everyone is happy and healthy, I think large families are great.


    Would you prefer a small or large family, how many?

    I've got 1 and that works for me, lol. If God wanted me to have more, that would be fine too. But I don't know that I'm an 18 kid kind of girl. I'm not disciplined enough. I know that already.

duggar family

  • Question:-Duggar Family!?!?
    The Duggar family was JUST on the Today Show and announced that shes pregnant with #18!!

    I'm just floored, anyone else think this is crazy?

    Yes its their choice etc... I understand this, but my gosh 18?
    http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/20134584/
    Not 3 vans..they have a BUS!!!!
    They really are not financially independent..they are depending on reality tv shows such as the one on discovery to keep them going...
    Completely agree with the adoption aspect!

    Why not adopt unwanted babies..could this be why abortion rates are soooo high..cause everyone wants biological children and not adopted ones?

    Answer:-They wind up having at least 20-22 kids before she hits menopause! They are just nuts. And they are in this little world all of their own, it is really creepy I think. They are all homeschooled too - do those kids socialize with anyone besides their own siblings? Of course, Discovery Health and TLC just love to play up the Duggars and now keep showing other families just like that on "Kids by the Dozen". Some people thinks the Gosselins are nuts having 8 kids (though it was really only 2 pregnancies), but these people just keep having more and more. Their monthly grocery bill is probably more than my mortgage!!
  • Question:-What do you think of the Duggar family teaching their daughters not to go to college?
    The father of the Duggar family said that he believes it's not a womans place to go to college. Instead, a woman is to be a stay at home mom, not to become a career woman.

    What are your thoughts on this?

    Answer:-Does not surprise me..I watched one show and I never want to watch another.
  • Question:-What is your opinion of the Duggar family believing in chaperones for dating?
    The Duggar family believes that chaperones are necessary when dating.

    What is your opinion of this family?

    Answer:-I like them, and I think if more people were as concerned about their childrens welfare, this world would be a better place.
  • Question:-How do you feel about the Duggar family?
    What are your opinions on the Duggar family?
    How do you feel about the number of children in this family?
    What do you think about their lifestyle?
    The way the children are being raised?

    Also, would you rather watch an episode of Jon and Kate Plus 8 as opposed to the Duggar family's series? Why or why not?

    I'm just curious to see what everyone's opinions are on these families.

    Answer:-The Duggar are just odd to me. Yet, I love watching their show. Personally, I think 18 children is too many. I work in a school based setting with about 20 children. It's difficult to give 20 children all the attention they need, all the time. I could only imagine what it's like raising 18 children. A few of them have to feel as though they are being ignored.

    I mean, just watch Jon and Kate Plus 8. On a few of the episodes, they made it a point to bring each child out for their very own, private day with mom and dad. That way, they got one on one attention and a chance to be an individual.

    I don't think the Duggars are getting that. I'm glad they have strong faith and family values. But, they just seem a bit outdated. I just don't see any of those children living outside the little community that's been established for them in Arkansas. They will marry and associate with people solely like them for the rest of their lives. They could never move up North or out West, I just don't think they'd fit in or every be mainstreamed into a different area of the country.

    I love Jon and Kate Plus 8. Kate's a little much for me sometimes. She needs to relax. I like Jon, he's understand what battles to pick with the kids. He gets that kids are just going to be kids sometimes.
  • Question:-duggar family!!?
    ok 17 kids

    who thinks this is ok...
    tell me what you think about this family

    Answer:-Who in the heck are we to judge a family who has a lot of children? When did we get so high and mighty we have to pass judgment on a loving and supportive family unit. The Duggars may not live a "normal" American life, but is that really so bad? They live debt free, did you know that? How many Americana's do you know who live debt free? I don't and I don't have ANY kids. They are frugal, they are good money managers, they have taught their children responsibility!!! And no, they don't "make" their kids do chores and force them into a life of servant-hood, the kids WANT to help because that's what family is all about. Our world has become so kid centered that we have forgotten what parenting is all about, teaching responsibility. Too many people are speaking out of school about the Duggar family. Their kids are healthy, educated, respectful, well mannered, loving, family centered children! If only everyone in America would take care of the 2 or 3 kids they have as well as the Duggars do then the world would be a better place in my opinion!!
  • Question:-What are you feelings about the Duggar Family?
    Tell me your feelings - good or bad - about the Duggar Family and why you feel the way you do.

    Answer:-I have never heard of the Duggar family. Who are they?

    Edit: Well, after reading the rest of the posts, I've figured out the Duggars are the religious nutjobs on TV who have 20 kids or something. Personally, I find this absolutely SICK. How can you give proper love and attention to that many kids? How do you give comfort to one who's sick or read bedtime stories?
  • Question:-Why does everybody (most everybody anyway) dislike the Duggar family for having 17 children?
    if they can afford 17/18 kids, than who cares, right? Besides, i don't know why they take all the heat. There are plenty of other families nowadays with that many kids. If you google it, there is a Russian family in California who have 17 kids. Nobody talks about them or gives them hell about it. My family has 14 kids (we would of had 16 kids if it wasn't for my 2 brothers passing away). 8 of us are adopted, but still. Nobody makes our lives miserable because of it. So why do you, when typing the Duggar family into google, find hundreds of websites saying how stupid and irresponsible they are. Not to mention the names they get called. I mean, leave them alone, they aren't hurting you (and don't even begin to give me that crap about how the world is overpopulated). I want you to give me one thing, just one thing, horrible in your PERSONAL life that is all messed up because of the Duggars. you can't.
    haha, baxter, i loved your answer. i've already run into 5.

    Answer:-Actually, the people in the US complaining about overpopulation apparently don't know how to read. Once the baby boomers start kicking off, we will approach negative replacement. Meaning, more people will be dying than being born. I think your parents rock!!!! Adopting 8 blessings, making a complete family from broken shards, your family kicks *ss!!! My own relatives criticise me for wanting more and I have three beautiful kids. 9 out of 10 people are inherently stupid. If you and I aren't stupid, that means we're going to run into18 idiots today.
  • Question:-The duggar family, from the show "19 kids and counting" mathematics speaking shouldn't one be different?
    Okay with that so many kids around, shouldn't one of those kids be an atheist, or liberal, or just have opposite view then there families? Because that what usually happens in family a couple has usually two or three kids, and one or two usually think different and view life different then the parents.

    I mean look at Ronald Reagon kids!

    So shouldn't the duggar kids increaase there odds having there childeren think different then there parent lifestyle?

    Answer:-Possibly, but not necessarily.
  • Question:-What qualifies the Duggar family to have a television show, and is that how they support themselves?
    It seems like gloried overpopulation to me, and being supported how? Well, I suppose if you get enough viewers to buy into that kind of junk. But it's discovery health channel. I enjoy the ER shows and stuff. What does having a big family have to do with anything more than being wasteful, just like that crazy woman in California who already had six kids and just had octuplets, and I hope there are no hand-outs because these people make choices.

    Answer:-no it's not. they have commercial rental properties (and they say this in the opening credits sequence on every show) and they own property that has a cell tower that a few different companies rent. they are very wise with their spending and have no debt. the house and land are paid for, so all they really have as expenses are the utilities (and they designed the house to be very efficient and inexpensive to maintain), food, clothing, and fuel. while food may be a couple thousand dollars a month, the others aren't near that much so i'm sure their monthly bills are less than $5000. with 17 kids at home, including a few teenage boys (aka bottomless pits). that's not bad. and it's not hard to maintain with the income from the sources i listed, not to mention they did write a book and get income from that. the family came into the national eye when michelle was named young mother of the year in arkansas (they might have been on tv before this, but i don't think so). they supported themselves for all those years before any of the shows, when they had 14 kids and before. they've been self-sufficient since their oldest was very young.
    and having a big family isn't any more wasteful than having a small one, as a matter of fact i bet they "waste" less than the average family considering they buy everything used (recycle old stuff no one else wants so new products don't have to be made for them) and have no debt.
  • Question:-Why do people hate on the Duggar family?
    They seem like a nice respectful family with good morals, yet they seem to get under peoples skin for some reason. Why is that?

  • Question:-What is the name of this Dia De Los Muertos souvenir bought in Mexico?
    I bought a small souvenir in Mexico around Dia De Los Muertos. It is made of brightly colored plastic fabric and lined with blue silk. It contains a bunch of religious art. It opes with a Virgin Mary,and it has a tiny beaded charm of a Saint, it also has a cut out of what looks like a prayer that starts with "de el feliz", and a Corazon de Jesus. I was wondering what this was and its purpose.

    Answer:-What you describe sounds more like an ex-voto or a miniatura than anything having to do with Día de los Muertos.
  • Question:-What are important rituals when celebrating el Dia de los Muertos in Peru?
    I need to know different things that are done in Peru to celebrate El Dia de los Muertos.

    Answer:-I don't believe they celebrate sl dia de los muertos in Peru...I have a Peruvian friend, and he says thy do not. Also, I can find nothing on Yahoo Peru about it. El Dia De Los Muertos actually falls on All Saints Day...which is celebrated in Peru. See 1st site below for an article on Yahoo Peru about the all Saints Day celebration. People go to the the cemeteries to clean the grave sites, take flowers, and remember loved ones who have died. This holiday is distinctly Mexican, tho it is recognized in Bolivia and Brazil also...but not in all Latin American countries. All Saints Day, on the other hand, is a religious holiday recognized in all Catholic countries. 2nd and 3rd sites below tell about All Saints Day in Peru.
  • Question:-How do people greet one another on El Dia de los Muertos?

    Best of Luck to You!
  • Question:-How to start celebrating Dia De Los Muertos?
    I'm Mexican but born in America and my family hasn't celebrated Dia de los Muertos since they left Mexico 20+ years ago. Mostly because there hasn't been many deaths in our family in a long time.

    Anyways, the past few years has brought about the death of my great-grandparents, an uncle, and a friend. What would be a good simple way to start honoring them on this day?

    Answer:-Start a family altar with their pictures just for the event, not for all year long. What are some things that they particularly liked? Gather up those things to place in their sections. Usually Virgin of Guadalupe images are included. There is a special incense that is burned and flowers as well. Finally, you include their favorite foods.
    My mother loved avocados and olives. Olives are easy because I don't have to open the can or jar until the last few days, but avocados will spoil if I don't buy them at the last minute.
    Just a few ideas.

    Answer:-Pan de Muerto is a great dish.

  • Question:-Is it inappropriate or disrespectful to have a "Dia de los muertos" themed wedding?
    We want to have a Day of the Dead themed wedding. Since Dia de Los Muertos is generally a holiday that celebrates death and rebirth, a reasonably significant theme in our relationship, we thought it wouldn't be totally unacceptable. But if anybody has any opinions based in experience, we'd love to hear about it.

    Answer:-Well, it IS your wedding. However, I don't think it would be my cup of tea.

    So this year for Halloween I'm going to be dressed as a "Day of the Dead woman" as my aunt calls it.

    This is my costume:

    http://www.partycity.com/product/adult+graveyard+nightgown+ghost+costume.do?sortby=ourPicks&pp=60&size=all&navSet=110762

    Do you think it will look good with my "Day of the Dead" theme? Also, when you paint the makeup on your face do you only paint half of your face or the whole face? My aunt says it's only half, but in pictures I see everyone has their whole face painted. If you do have to paint half of the face; which half is it?

    Thank you! .xx

  • Question:-Who made the bigger sacrifice for man: Jesus who spent a day on the cross and a couple of days dead, or Judus?
    who made Jesus' sacrifice possible and, according to some Christians, will spend an eternity in hell?

    Answer:-Dang! You're right. jesus had a good life, and then spent one night being smacked around and only spent 6 hours on the cross - 9am-3pm. You're right, Judas's suffering is far greater. Hmmmm!
  • Question:-my corvette is dead the next day?
    the battery is good so is the alternator and the starter. it will hold for the day after i jump it, and i will turn it off and on through out the day, but the next day dead! lots of wires i need a really good place to start.

    Answer:-Since it is not your alternator or battery, wait until it is dark outside and with the ignition and everything else off, take off the negative battery post. If it sparks when it makes contact with the battery post then there is a short somewhere! Something is open somewhere and I would venture to guess that it might be somewhere in your power windows switches. I believe that a short in this area is the culprit my friend!
  • Question:-Why are my pine trees green one day dead the next?
    I do water, fertilize, put ant bait out, watch for those big cracks in ground from lack of rain

    Answer:-Maybe you're watering them too much.

    Re-post your question and give us more information.

    How long have the trees been in the ground? How big are they? If you're watering them, what method are you using, how long do you water when you do it, and how frequently do you do it? What's the soil like there? What exactly do you see? Is it browning from the inside? Are the tips still green? Is it browning from the bottom up? top down? The more specifics, the better we can narrow down the possibilities.
  • Question:-My friends: If Jesus RESURRECTED at 3rd day... what happened to his dead body?
    Jesus died in the cross (some others say it was in a tree, whatever)... where did his dead body were taken? or he remained hanged by nails? I also think (i am not sure), that that place where he died is HOT... how much time does a dead body needs to start DECOMPOSING? in high temperatures shoudn't be quicker? so.. if you resurrect a 3 day dead body, even if you could.. some organs won't be useful anymore, don't you think?
    so, please let me know your points of view of these stupid statements, and please don't include magical answers.
    thanks

    YEAH, I MEMORIZED YAHOO ANSWERS GUIDELINES, i am not violating any term.
    half god, half ape, complete genious:

    does a rotten organ is able to work again?
    FC:
    are you serious? logical?

    Answer:-In order to be dead, some of his organs would have to have stopped working. Resurrecting implies that they started working again.

    Rotten organs don't work, so they were either regenerated completely, or Jesus rose as a zombie. Don't ask me - I didn't write the story.

    Answer:-Daybreak in the graveyard of Mazatlán de Flores, Oaxaca. Photography: Lourdes Grobet.

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    This is an ancient festivity that has been much transformed through the years, but which was intended in prehispanic Mexico to celebrate children and the dead. Hence, the best way to describe this Mexican holiday is to say that it is a time when Mexican families remember their dead, and the continuity of life.
    Two important things to know about the Mexican Day of the Dead (Día de los Muertos) are:

    It is a holiday with a complex history, and therefore its observance varies quite a bit by region and by degree of urbanization.

    It is not a morbid occasion, but rather a festive time.
    The original celebration can be traced to many Mesoamerican native traditions, such as the festivities held during the Aztec month of Miccailhuitontli, ritually presided by the "Lady of the Dead" (Mictecacihuatl), and dedicated to children and the dead. In the Aztec calendar, this ritual fell roughly at the end of the Gregorian month of July and the beginning of August, but in the postconquest era it was moved by Spanish priests so that it coincided with the Christian holiday of All Hallows Eve (in Spanish: "Día de Todos Santos.") This was a vain effort to transform the observance from a profane to a Christian celebration. The result is that Mexicans now celebrate the day of the dead during the first two days of November, rather than at the beginning of summer. But remember the dead they still do, and the modern festivity is characterized by the traditional Mexican blend of ancient aboriginal and introduced Christian features.

    Generalizing broadly, the holiday's activities consist of families (1) welcoming their dead back into their homes, and (2) visiting the graves of their close kin. At the cemetery, family members engage in sprucing up the gravesite, decorating it with flowers, setting out and enjoying a picnic, and interacting socially with other family and community members who gather there. In both cases, celebrants believe that the souls of the dead return and are all around them. Families remember the departed by telling stories about them. The meals prepared for these picnics are sumptuous, usually featuring meat dishes in spicy sauces, chocolate beverages, cookies, sugary confections in a variety of animal or skull shapes, and a special egg-batter bread ("pan de muerto," or bread of the dead). Gravesites and family altars are profusely decorated with flowers (primarily large, bright flowers such as marigolds and chrysanthemums), and adorned with religious amulets and with offerings of food, cigarettes and alcoholic beverages. Because of this warm social environment, the colorful setting, and the abundance of food, drink and good company, this commemoration of the dead has pleasant overtones for the observers, in spite of the open fatalism exhibited by all participants, whose festive interaction with both the living and the dead in an important social ritual is a way of recognizing the cycle of life and death that is human existence.

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In homes observant families create an altar and decorate it with items that they believe are beautiful and attractive to the souls of their departed ones. Such items include offerings of flowers and food, but also things that will remind the living of the departed (such as their photographs, a diploma, or an article of clothing), and the things that the dead prized and enjoyed while they lived. This is done to entice the dead and assure that their souls actually return to take part in the remembrance. In very traditional settings, typically found only in native communities, the path from the street to the altar is actually strewn with petals to guide the returning soul to its altar and the bosom of the family.The traditional observance calls for departed children to be remembered during the first day of the festivity (the Day of the Little Angels, "Día de los Angelitos"), and for adults to be remembered on the second day. Traditionally, this is accompanied by a feast during the early morning hours of November the 2nd, the Day of the Dead proper, though modern urban Mexican families usually observe the Day of the Dead with only a special family supper featuring the bread of the dead. In southern Mexico, for example in the city of Puebla, it is good luck to be the one who bites into the plastic toy skeleton hidden by the baker in each rounded loaf. Friends and family members give one another gifts consisting of sugar skeletons or other items with a death motif, and the gift is more prized if the skull or skeleton is embossed with one's own name. Another variation found in the state of Oaxaca is for bread to be molded into the shape of a body or burial wrap, and for a face to be embedded on one end of the loaf. During the days leading up to and following the festivity, some bakeries in heavily aboriginal communities cease producing the wide range of breads that they typically sell so that they can focus on satisfying the demand for bread of the dead.

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Day of the Dead can range from being a very important cultural event, with defined social and economic responsibilities for participants (exhibiting the socially equalizing behavior that social anthropologists would call redistributive feasting, e.g. on the island of Janitzio in Michoacan state), to being a religious observance featuring actual worship of the dead (e.g., as in Cuilapan, Oaxaca, an ancient capital of the Zapotec people, who venerated their ancestors and whose descendants do so to this day, an example of many traditional practices that Spanish priests pretend not to notice), to simply being a uniquely Mexican holiday characterized by special foods and confections (the case in all large Mexican cities.)

    In general, the more urban the setting within Mexico the less religious and cultural importance is retained by observants, while the more rural and Indian the locality the greater the religious and economic import of the holiday. Because of this, this observance is usually of greater social importance in southern Mexico than in the northern part of the country.

    2. taking stairs instead of elevator (I live on the 18th floor)
    3. strictly low calorie, fat, food. (vegetables, fruits, occasional nuts.)
    4. drinking 10 cups of water a day
    6. never, ever skip breakfast

  • Question:-02 AudiTT has a blown motor (low oil pressure). Was fine one day, dead the next! Still making payments, HELP!?
    This is actually my father's car. He was driving recently and noticed the oil light came on, so he put in a quart of oil. The light went out, so he continued driving. The same thing happens again the next day. This time, after the light goes out and he goes back about his business, the car starts making funny sounds, at which point he stops and has it towed to the dealership. They tell him the motor is blown because of low oil pressure, and it will cost $12,000 to either replace the engine or fix it, I'm not sure which. What can he do? He still has 6 or 8 payments left. Is it unlikely that his insurance will do anything for him? Should he try and find someone to buy it for parts? Please help.

    Answer:-not 100% sure, but my truck did something like this one time, and all i needed was a oil pump. Sounds to me like some one it trying to get free money here. Tell him to take to a local mechanic and see what they think is wrong with it.

sister wives

  • Question:-Sister Wives!?!?!!?!?
    What is sister wives about? Isn't the show about a slut who sleeps with different girls every night? Its disgusting what do you think?

    Answer:-It's a show about a fundamentalist Mormon man and his family. He has one legal wife and several other "wives" who he married in a church ceremony, but are not recognized by the state as his wives. The women call each other sister-wives.
  • Question:-sister wives??????????
    i like the wives but not the husband what about you

    Answer:-Frankly the show is appalling. The husband? A pervert. The wives? Stupid and immoral to put their children in such a twisted lifestyle. What does he room-hop each night to sleep with a different "wife"? Whoever is in a good mood tonight he gets to sleep with? It's just gross and seems like something from the middle ages.

    I enjoy some shows on TLC but they are going way over the line with this one and nobody in my house will watch that filth.
  • Question:-What's the song on the Sister Wives premiere commercial on TLC?
    What's the song on the the TLC Sister Wives season premiere commercial currently airing on TV? I don't believe that the commercial is available on the website, just on TV.

    Answer:-The song is called "We Can" by The So Manys
  • Question:-How come SISTER wives family moved from UTAH to NEVADA?
    The polygamist family from Sister Wives is actually pretty cool and I felt bad for them that they had to move to another state because of the police.
    But because they aired the episode, don't the police still know where they are?
    They moved to NEVADA but how does that prevent them from being arrested for polygamy? Its still USA.

    Answer:-Police =/= Federal.

    State police can't do anything about it if they move, the Nevada police could, but not the Utah police. Each station has it's own jurisdiction. City, county, state, and then it goes to federal when it crosses state borders. But I don't think the feds are gonna do much for one family.
  • Question:-How do I contact the people from Sister Wives?
    How do I contact the people from Sister Wives? They had a hand crochet baby blanet in the babies crib and I want the pattern.

    Answer:-Go to the TLC website there will be a section for sister wives and email them. Who knows if you will get an email back but that's where i would go.
  • Question:-Would You Rather Have Multiple Husbands Or Multiple Sister Wives?
    I think I would rather have multiple sister wives. Having multiple Husbands would suck because I would have to sexually please all of those men. And it's hard enough to sexually please just one man.

    Answer:-None of the above: One wife is almost too much to deal with.
  • Question:-What happened to robyn brown from sister wives?
    I was watching Oprah today and they didnt have robyn in the interview thing and they were saying they had 13 kids but when i was watching sister wives last month they said 16 kids. Did she back out of the marriage???

    Answer:-IDK. Last I heard, she was expecting. ><
  • Question:-Are the woman on sister wives sisters before they married the guy?
    My husband and i are debating who is right.

    I already think the show is disgusting, so please dont comment on that.

    Are the 3 original wives of the man sisters?

    Answer:-Other people answered but I think they use the term the way you say sorority "sister" or you and your best friend are like "sisters." They are just extremely close and like family because they support each other and raise each other's children.
  • Question:-If polygamy is illegal, then how can there be shows like sister wives?
    Polygamy is illegal in Canada and the United States. So how can they make a tv show about sister wives. What's next, a tv show about the lives of drug dealers? Actually that might be more interesting. Illegal is illegal even if its something minor.

    Answer:-I agree with you 100000%

    the reason they can get away with it it because if you go to the mayer or whatever, you can ask him for a pice of paper that says you can do a sertain thing and get away with it...

    i think they should stop, because people are getting the wrong idea from these shows.. people are starting to think that its ok to do this stuff.... its really stupid
  • Question:-What questions should my husband and I ask when we interview potential sister wives?
    I work four days a week and I really hate doing laundry. We thought bringing a sister wife in to our family might help alleviate some of the work I have to do as a dutiful Christian wife...and cut down on our child care expenses.

    Other than basic questions about STDs, homemaker skills and education...how else can we weed out the freaks and find a good quality woman like we are looking for?

    Answer:-Do you knit?

occupy oakland

  • Question:-Bay Area coverage of Occupy Oakland: The protesters feel it's positive to not define the movt?
    Do you take the protesters at their (collective) word?

    Answer:-I think that the protesters will define their movement sooner or later , Their staying together in Oakland will encourage them to negotiate their aims an put their movement's goals .
  • Question:-my wife's office had to close thanks to occupy Oakland costing our family $30 an hour times 8hrs?
    will the occupy movement reimburses us those lost wages with some the the 300K they have?

    and will they just give us the money if we show them check stubs, or will they make us fight for it in court?

    Indescribable- im asking if they will pay back the wages they cost us. after all we are the working class that they claim to be fighting for.

  • Question:-How can I occupy a 6 year old on a 7 hour layover in Oakland Airport, California?
    We won't be leaving the airport due to crime and the hassel of going through security again, so any suggestions on how to keep a little kid happy. Does anyone know if there are kiddie areas within the airport? Thanks and all answers are greatly appreciated!

    Answer:-Everyone hates layovers even kids, here are some helpful hints.
    Take portable games, like Sorry, Life, and Connect Four. They sell them cheap at places like Wal-Mart and Target. They come in very handy on the flight to. If you have a portable DVD player you can always bring that just make sure that you have extra batteries. Handle held video games are always fun, you can find some pretty cheap ones at the places above. What about books? Get some new books that the family can read together. Crayons, paper and coloring books are wonderful, again good to use in flight too!!! Be sure to pack some snacks, crackers, fruit roll ups, chips, anything small, in bags and does not have to stay cold is good!
    Make up scavenger hunt cards for the airport. Put things on them like a person wearing pink, a pilot, tickets ect... who ever gets the most wins. You can walk around and do this game or you can even make up Bingo cards to do in your area if you have too much luggage. Only takes a few minutes to make them up, but hey you can get an hour or two out of them!
    Start the story game, someone in the family starts the story and the rest have to finish it. You can go on forever.
    Play the I Spy Game....you know I spy something blue, and so on.
    Twenty questions is always fun.
    Hangman, Tic Tac Toe, Uno Cards, Go Fish, Old Maid. Fun for the whole family, kills time and again good in flight. What about word searches? Those are always fun.
    When all else fails, walk around, watch the planes land. Hey use the time to get something to eat, that always kills an hour! We also try to find a family that has kids about the same age, in hopes that they will play with each other. Oh yeah and we usually by one new small travel toy. Let them pick it out but, they cannot play with it until we are on vacation. Hey at least it is still new to them and will keep them busy for a few hours!
    With a little planning you all will survive the 7 hours! Good Luck, I hope this helps and have a wonderful trip!

  • Question:-Is the American Social Revolution starting Right Now, in Oakland?
    They are using chemical weapons on the 99%.

    http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/lanow/2011/10/tear-gas-fired-occupy-oakland-protest.html
    "the protestors used tear gas" lmao...yes, and the German shepherds and tasers and grenades too...

    Answer:-
  • Question:-if the "occupy" protesters were serious about their cause why don't they put their drugs down for 5 minutes?
    "OAKLAND -- City officials said Tuesday they may have to shut down the Occupy Oakland tent city in coming days because it is attracting rats, alcohol and illegal drug use."

    Answer:-
  • Question:-why do "occupy" protesters attract rats?
    "OAKLAND -- City officials said Tuesday they may have to shut down the Occupy Oakland tent city in coming days because it is attracting rats, alcohol and illegal drug use."

    http://www.contracostatimes.com/rss/ci_19139575

    Answer:-
  • Question:-In Oakland, CA if you buy a multi unit building already occupied by tenants how much can you raise the rent?
    If they have month to month leases and also by how much?

    Answer:-You can't raise the rent in Oaktown because it is part of an insolvent welfare hood. Watch Dr. Zhivago!
  • Question:-Before you write off the protesters as a bunch of unemployed morons, how about you check them out?
    Right now there are occupy protests in most major cities, i've checked out the san francisco, oakland, and san rafael ones, just because they're all near where i live.


    The media greatly sensationalizes the protests, check one out, it's mostly normal people.
    ... You guys are watching fox news and judging the protesters off of that.

    If you think Fox is going to accurately show the protest, you're an idiot.

    Answer:-the people that are complaining are not interested in checking them out.
    they're not interested in reality.

    faux-lies tells them that they're dirty welfare recipients.
    they don't (think they) need to know anything else.

    it's that way quite a lot with faux-lies viewers.
  • Question:-Who should I start for Week 14 Wide Receivers?
    I have 3 spots available and I have Lee Evans vs. Miami, Antonio Bryant vs. Carolina, Isaac Bruce vs. Jets, Bernard berrian vs. Detroit and Vincent Jackson vs. Oakland. I am leaning towards Evans, Bryant and Bruce, but I'm not sure, esp for the last spot that Bruce occupies. Thanks.

    Answer:-I go with Bryant, Bruce, and Berrian.

    Why are you shaky on Bruce? NYJ will score, so SF will have to play catch up all day (aka pass). Jets have the 30th ranked pass defense. Bruce has been two straight weeks as their primary reciever, two straight games with a TD catch.

    I want Berrian because the Lions have been very susceptible to the big play and Berrian's a big play specialist.

    I'd sit Evans. Five straight games without a TD. Three TDs all year. Against Miami who's held opponents below 20 pts in five of their last six games.

dina manzo

  • Question:-How is Teresa From Real Housewives Related to Dina and Caroline Manzo?
    So, I know Dina and Caroline are sisters married to Manzo brothers, and Jacqueline is married their brother. How does Teresa fit into all of this? (:

    Answer:-Teresa's a family friend that's known Dina for fifteen years. >>>
  • Question:-Why is Dina Manzo not speaking to her sister Caroline Manzo? Bravo New Jersey Housewives?
    Bravo New Jersey Housewives

    Answer:-
  • Question:-Why isn't Lexi Manzo, Dina's daughter, on the Real Housewives of New Jersey season 2?


    Answer:-Dina stated that she wanted Lexi to focus on being in High School.
  • Question:-Does anyone know Dina Manzo's birthdate? (She is on the tv show The Real Housewives of NJ.)?


    Answer:-NO >>>
  • Question:-Dina Manzo's one shoulder dress?
    I was wondering where Dina's dress, in the Real Housewives of New Jersey's intro. It's a one-shoulder, aqua dress with metallic like flower like things on it! I love it and think it would be a cute dress for an event I have coming up! If you could help me that would be great! Thanks!

    Answer:-I think it's from the Sarah Palin fashion line.
  • Question:-On the Real Housewives of New Jersey who is Lexi's father???(Dina Manzo Daughter)?


    Answer:-NOt disclosed that I know of.
  • Question:-What is Real Housewives of New Jersey Dina Manzo's Secret?
    I get the impression that Danielle has some dirt on Dina, that she doesnt want revealed. She makes peace with Danielle, then in their last "meeting" Danielle says something about Dina not wanting to reveal the past, but always bringing up her past. Also I think the same reason why Carolyn flipped on the reunion show. I think Dina is majorly hiding something about herself. Maybe Bravo made an agreement that neither could talk about it???? I dunno... any one know Dina's secret I am curious!!!!

    Answer:-Dina and her husband are/were in the process of getting a divorce and apparently Danielle was contacted by Dina's ex brother in law about something...no one is sure exactly what....but Dina and Caroline are pretty sure that Danielle supplied information to Dina's husband that would harm Dina in the custody part of the divorce.

    Danielle's response - from her blog on BRAVOtv.com from last year -
    As for the end of the Reunion, when Caroline said such horrible things to me, I had no idea at the time what "disgraceful" acts she was referring to. I only found out later what she was talking about, from someone in her own family. I simply gave a phone number to her ex brother-in-law to contact proper people with questions that he had concerning something that was absolutely none of my business. I was asked to give this information to him. If I had to do it again, I would have declined and preferred not to get involved. But I think my minimal involvement did not justify Caroline's behavior towards me. How dare they still sit in judgment of ME? There is only one God, and I don't see God in their eyes. I can only hope God is in their hearts.

the haunting in connecticut

  • Question:-Whos the boy who plays the ghost boy in a haunting Connecticut?
    Sorry my other question must of got mistaken, i meant whos the boy who PLAYS the ghost boy?

    Answer:-imdb would tell you if you search for the movie online. i don't know his name.
  • Question:-Who was the ghost boy in a haunting Connecticut?
    the one where he was trying to save those people from those bad spirits.
    whats his real name?

    Answer:-All I could get was that the family's name which was Snedekers. Carmen Snedekers gave an interview to CNN to talk about the house. Reed is Carmen Snedeker’s maiden name. Reed said she wanted to protect the privacy of her family and grandchildren so she did not want to use their names
  • Question:-Where is the house and hospital in The Haunting in Connecticut?
    Supposedly the new film "The Haunting in Connecticut" is a true story about a family that moved from Southington, CT to a house closer to the hospital where one of the family members was receiving treatment. Does anyone know where the house and hospital are (were)? Which hospital was it?

    Answer:-I believe it was Bradley Hospital. The house is located in Southington even though it says northern connecticut. It is located at 208 meriden ave. The family actually moved TO Southington from a different area i believe. This house was once Aikman mortuary and funeral home. It is not a place you can visit, a family does live there today. I have lived in Southington my whole life and live just a few streets over from this house. There have been stories of paranormal activity in the house but nothing to the extent of the family who was supposedly haunted.
  • Question:-Is Haunting in Connecticut based on a true story?
    I know that The Exorcism of Emily Rose and Texas Chainsaw Massacre is based on a true story.
    But what I want to know is, is Haunting in Connecticut based on a true story?

    Answer:-Yes, I first heard about it on the Discovery channel, the have a daily show called A Haunting.
  • Question:-what do you think about a sequel to A Haunting in Connecticut coming out?
    it will be called the Haunting in Georgia. i really liked the haunting in connecticut, and i cant picture a haunting in georgia. do you think the movie will ruin a haunting in connecticut?

    Answer:-I, overall LOVED A Haunting in Connecticut.

    Actually I've been doing some researching about Haunting in Georgia and somewhere I had read that the people who produced the MOVIE A Haunting in Connecticut was actually based it on an episode in the series Haunting. I actually had also came across a dvd of the episode in the TV series a Haunting called The Haunting in Georgia, too, but I didn't rent it. (seeing that I was in a video rental store) But I think that the movie, A Haunting in Georgia will be similar, i not better than the episode. If it's the same producers of A Haunting in Connecticut, and since it has nothing in relation to the previous movie, I'm sure it will be good. :)
  • Question:-Is The Haunting in Connecticut worth watching?
    I am a scary-movie goer. But I don't like scary movies like Halloween or Friday 13th. In other words, I HATE slasher movies, they aren't really that scary to me.

    I like ones like the Unborn or the Amityville Horror. I saw The Haunting in Connecticut documentary and saw the trailer a couple days ago. It seems pretty good. Is it worth watching?

    Answer:-I liked it. It was especially interesting that the house it took place in (the one the film is based on) is in my hometown about 3 miles away.
  • Question:-Can anyone give me a short summary about the movie HAUNTING IN CONNECTICUT?
    My daughter wanted to see the movie HAUNTING IN CONNECTICUT, Shes 10 years old but i don't know if its such a good idea to let her see it. If someone could just give me a brief summary of the movie that would be great.

    Answer:-There is no sexuality or nudity in it. It is about a family that moves into a house to be closer to the hospital that is treating their son for cancer. The house turns out to be haunted. It is suppose to be based on a true story from the 70's. There's a few scenes that may be considered gory for a 10 year old, but as long as she knows it's not real I think it would be fine. I found it to be incredibly boring, but I'm 21.
  • Question:-What kind of movie do you think The Haunting In Connecticut will be after you saw the trailer on TV?
    I saw the trailer for the movie The Haunting In Connecticut last night on TV and I am looking forward to the movie,it is posed to be based on true events that have happened to people,I am going to get it on DVD when it comes out on DVD,I like to watch movies in my room.

    Answer:-Honestly i can't wait to see it i think i am going to watch it in the theaters when it comes out to release in theaters. I own amity ville horror the one made in 2005. I think it the movie kind of like it might relate a little bit or maybe a lot to the amity ville horror movie
  • Question:-What was the name of the boy who was burned in the furnace in The Haunting of Connecticut?
    It was the boy who Kyle Gallner would have flash backs about. He was burnt in some scenes of the movie. What was his name in the movie and his real name? Oh and also he's the guy on the cover of The Haunting of Connecticut.

    Answer:-jonah

    me and my sister want to go on like a double date with our boyfriends to see the Haunting in Connecticut over spring break, like april 18th probably, and i'm starting to wonder if it will still be in theaters by then. google isn't helping me lol.

    Answer:-probably for a few more weeks

dia de los muertos

  • Question:-Dia de los muertos calavera tattoo?
    Do the colors or design of Dia los muertos=( Day of the dead) calaveras=(skulls) have a meaning? Thinking of getting a tattoo but want to make sure I get the right one, any links would be really helpful.

    Answer:-the day of the dead is a day to remember your dead loved ones..... its a day in south amarica for celebrating the life of their family/friend

    i guess any pic of a skull is representative of the dead member.
  • Question:-What is the name of this Dia De Los Muertos souvenir bought in Mexico?
    I bought a small souvenir in Mexico around Dia De Los Muertos. It is made of brightly colored plastic fabric and lined with blue silk. It contains a bunch of religious art. It opes with a Virgin Mary,and it has a tiny beaded charm of a Saint, it also has a cut out of what looks like a prayer that starts with "de el feliz", and a Corazon de Jesus. I was wondering what this was and its purpose.

    Answer:-What you describe sounds more like an ex-voto or a miniatura than anything having to do with Día de los Muertos.
  • Question:-What are important rituals when celebrating el Dia de los Muertos in Peru?
    I need to know different things that are done in Peru to celebrate El Dia de los Muertos.

    Answer:-I don't believe they celebrate sl dia de los muertos in Peru...I have a Peruvian friend, and he says thy do not. Also, I can find nothing on Yahoo Peru about it. El Dia De Los Muertos actually falls on All Saints Day...which is celebrated in Peru. See 1st site below for an article on Yahoo Peru about the all Saints Day celebration. People go to the the cemeteries to clean the grave sites, take flowers, and remember loved ones who have died. This holiday is distinctly Mexican, tho it is recognized in Bolivia and Brazil also...but not in all Latin American countries. All Saints Day, on the other hand, is a religious holiday recognized in all Catholic countries. 2nd and 3rd sites below tell about All Saints Day in Peru.
  • Question:-How do people greet one another on El Dia de los Muertos?
    Do you say feliz dia de los muertos? This is probably a dumb question, but I'm trying to expand my knowledge of and explore my ancestors' cultures and part of me is of hispanic decent.

    Answer:-"Live long and prosper"
  • Question:-Has anyone ever been to the festival called dia de los muertos at the hollywood forever cemetery how is it?

    Best of Luck to You!
  • Question:-How to start celebrating Dia De Los Muertos?
    I'm Mexican but born in America and my family hasn't celebrated Dia de los Muertos since they left Mexico 20+ years ago. Mostly because there hasn't been many deaths in our family in a long time.

    Anyways, the past few years has brought about the death of my great-grandparents, an uncle, and a friend. What would be a good simple way to start honoring them on this day?

    Answer:-Start a family altar with their pictures just for the event, not for all year long. What are some things that they particularly liked? Gather up those things to place in their sections. Usually Virgin of Guadalupe images are included. There is a special incense that is burned and flowers as well. Finally, you include their favorite foods.
    My mother loved avocados and olives. Olives are easy because I don't have to open the can or jar until the last few days, but avocados will spoil if I don't buy them at the last minute.
    Just a few ideas.
  • Question:-Dia de los muertos (Day of The Dead)- easy recipes?
    I would like to make some Dia de los muertos food for a college class, any suggestions? I don't' have enough time to do the skulls since I would have to get a kit. Something that is not too time consuming but delicious would be great :-)
    Halloween and Day of the Dead are two separate holidays, they are distinct in so many ways. Educate yourself next time before you talk. Thanks everyone for the answers, bread it is! And happy holidays to all on whatever you celebrate

    Answer:-Pan de Muerto is a great dish.
    It's a very yummy bread sprinkled with sugar traditionally severed on day of the dead. It's very easy to make, and recipes are everywhere.

    good luck XD
  • Question:-Is it inappropriate or disrespectful to have a "Dia de los muertos" themed wedding?
    We want to have a Day of the Dead themed wedding. Since Dia de Los Muertos is generally a holiday that celebrates death and rebirth, a reasonably significant theme in our relationship, we thought it wouldn't be totally unacceptable. But if anybody has any opinions based in experience, we'd love to hear about it.

    Answer:-Well, it IS your wedding. However, I don't think it would be my cup of tea.
  • Question:-El Dia de Los Muertos lesson ideas for 8th grade Spanish students?
    I teach elementary Spanish, and wanted to do some activities with my older Spanish students for El Dia de Los Muertos. We're having an all-school service on that day for the first time, but I wanted to teach my students more about it. Any good ideas besides me standing in front of them talking?

    Answer:-i take 8th grade Spanish and my teacher is doing a trivia game after she talks and offering a prize after so if we pay attention we win a prize! its a great incentive!
  • Question:-Is there a certain name for that Dia de los Muertos type of art?

  • Question:-Suggestions for a Wednesday Addams family costume for Halloween?
    I'm planning on being Wednesday from the Addams Family. I have the perfect wig, heck, it actually says ''Wednesday wig'', and I have black lipstick, white makeup, and some black earrings. But other suggestions? I have capes and shirts and things that are all black, but what other things could I use for Wednesday's clothes, and perhaps other accessories to the costume? Suggestions would be lovely on how to improve it. ^_^

    Answer:-You need a simple long-sleeve black dress, simple buckle-type girl's dress shoes or just low-heeled black dress shoes, white or black stockings, and a doll dressed like a "mini me" version of Wednesday.
  • Question:-What is the name of the episode of Addams Family where Lurch got a robot to do his job?
    This is the classic Addams Family show with Ted Cassidy as Lurch.
    There's one episode where Morticia and Gomez give Lurch a robot to do things he does.
    Then it gets to the point where Lurch commands the robot to do his duties. Later in the episode, Gomez & Morticia starts to miss Lurch's duties because the robot doesn't fit to their requests like Lurch does.

    Answer:-The Episode is called Lurch's Little Helper.
    Gomez gets him a robot named Smiley and Smiley turns out too strong and a terrible cook.
  • Question:-Is the girl who played Morticia in the original Addams Family show still alive?

  • Question:-What is the address for the Addams family movie house?
    I am looking for the address or floor plans of the Addams Family Movie House. If anyone knows their help would be fantastic. thanks i have been looking forever and can't find the real house.

    Answer:-1313 cemetery lane
  • Question:-What is the best variation of the Addams Family and why?
    I am asking this thinking about the movie cast (The Addams Family/Addams Family Values), the original cast, and the revival series (The New Addams Family).
    Any opinions?
    I would appreciate also knowing what you do and don't like about both casts, not just whats the best.

    Answer:-I think that John Astin from the 60's TV show was the best Gomez because of his fantastic facial expressions and body language (and also for the Groucho Marx styled jokes he always delivered).
    Carolyn Jones from the TV show was my favourite Morticia just because she was so beautiful and innocent but also very sexy. But Anjelica Huston gave a more sinister feel to the character which I also liked.
    Jackie Coogan was the best Uncle Fester because of his high voice, but the gags did get a little repetitive at points. I didn't really like Christopher Lloyd's Uncle Fester in the films because of the voice.
    Ted Cassidy is the only Lurch in my opinion. He invented the ‘You rang?’ expression so I’ll always love him for that. As for Grandma Addams I think Blossom Rock was adorable. Oh, and I didn’t like the movie’s Thing because it could get out of the box and walk around which for some reason isn’t as funny as an arm that mysteriously travels from box to box.
    I think that I prefer Christina Ricci and Jimmy Workman as Wednesday and Pugsley because they were actually quite frightening in comparison with the cute TV versions of the characters. Also, because they were older, they were more talented than their television counterparts.
    So, I think overall I liked the 1960’s cast more. The movies were funny, just not as funny as the TV show.
  • Question:-Which Addams Family character do you like the most?
    The Addams family is an old TV program that was remade into movies. The main characters are Wednesday, Pugsly, Gomez, Morticia, thing, Lurch, Grandma, It, and Uncle Fester.

    Which Addams Family character do you like the most and please provide a small reason why?

    NOTE: I liked Thing because it's funny how a hand can do so many things.

    Answer:-Ha ha, I love Cousin It...he is so funny...is he is guy with a lot of hair or just a pile of hair?!? I love his high pitch mumbling voice, I wish he was in it a bit more.
    Gomez too, he is just usually so upbeat and happy go lucky!! But when he is upset, he goes nuts...lol!
  • Question:-How is there retrograde amnesia in the addams family(1991) movie??? I need to know specifically why please!!!?
    The mental disorder retrograde amnesia is supposedly in The Addams Family(1991) and I love that movie but I'd like to use it as my movie for my psychology project and figure out how retrograde amnesia is in the film. Thank you!!!

    Answer:-Well! is not the first time that your question aroused my interest.
    I fully share your approach to the problem.
    I would suggest to proceed analytically with the help of keywords to be included in Yahoo!
    Best wishes .

  • Question:-Lizzie Borden?
    What is the name of the old movie about Lixxie Borden with Elizabeth Montgomery? is it called Lizzie Borden? and does netflix have it????!!! THanks guys 10 points for bestt

    Answer:-The Legend of Lizzie Borden... I don't think it's on DVD
  • Question:-lizzie borden?
    Lizzie Borden took and axe
    Gave her mother 40 whacks,
    When she saw what she had done
    She gave her father 41....is it true what really happend/

    Answer:-On August 4, 1892, Lizzie Borden's father, Andrew Jackson Borden, and her step-mother, Abby Borden, were murdered in the family home. The only other people present at the residence at the time were Lizzie and the family maid, Bridget Sullivan. An uncle, John V. Morse, (brother of Andrew Borden's first wife) was visiting at the time, but was away from the house during the time of the murders. Lizzie's older sister Emma was also away from home. That day, Andrew had gone into town to do his usual rounds at the bank and post office. He returned home at about 10:45. About a half-hour later, Lizzie found his body. According to Bridget's testimony, she was napping in the second floor of the house shortly after 11:00 am when Lizzie called up the stairs to her, saying someone had killed her father, whose body was found slumped on a couch in the downstairs sitting room.

    Shortly thereafter, while Lizzie was being attended to by neighbors and the family doctor, Bridget discovered the body of Mrs. Borden upstairs, in the guest bedroom. Mr. & Mrs. Borden had both been killed by blows from a hatchet, which in the case of Mr. Borden, not only crushed his skull but cleanly split his left eyeball.

  • Question:-What made Lizzie Borden kill her family?
    Recently I've become fascinated with the whole Lizzie Borden murders. But why, exactly did she kill her parents? There's a lot of skepticism that her parents were very neglectful, which sounds reasonable, but I've heard some other stories, like that she went crazy, or she just wanted to know what it would be like to kill her family. Thanks.

    Answer:-I've always been very interested with the Lizzie Borden story myself.

    Many people believe that it was greed. Simple old fashioned greed. Her father, Andrew Borden, was a wealthy man but lived a very modest life. Lizzie wanted to live a more lavish life style and wanted her inheritance and it is because of this that many people feel that she killed her father and step-mother. Greed.

  • Question:-Does anyone know of a good, factual website on Lizzie Borden?
    I'm writing a five page report for my English class on Lizzie Borden, and I need some accurate information. All of the information I can find is questionable...Please help.

    Answer:-There are a lot of sites out there. Wikipedia is a good place to start but not very reliable. If I use Wikipedia, its for the references and links to correct information. In your search, seek out the .edu sites which come from universities because their research is usually flawless and reliable. Other good resources are law sites.

  • Question:-Could Amanda Knox become the Lizzie Borden of the 21st century?
    Remember the jump-rope rhyme:
    "Lizzie Borden took an axe,
    And gave her mother 40 whacks,
    When she saw what she had done,
    She gave her father forty one.
    Although Lizzie Borden was acquitted for the murder of her parents, the prosecution's grisly tale of the ax murderess was very popular in the tabloid press. And became a popular nursery rhyme.

    Answer:-While Lizzie Borden murdered her parents could be a lie, people have heard it so many times they think it is true.
  • Question:-does anyone know where to get a recording of the lizzie borden nursery rhyme?
    it goes..Lizzie Borden had an axe
    She gave her mother 40 whacks,
    When she saw what she had done
    she gave her father 41.

    Answer:-There are a few recordings available on youtube. And you can download the song.

    They recently discovered that she didn't do it. A woman of her small stature couldn't hack away at someone as many times as the killer did. And the axe was really heavy.
