I don't understand what happens on page 417 to 421...what did Felicity's father do to her? I don''t get what he also means by sprinkle with fairy dust...?|||He molested her.
Fairy dust was a way for him to get into her room.|||rape her. fairy dust is just a way of getting her to let her guard down so she will let him in her room
I need to know what order these books by libba bray are in in the series.|||The first one is A Great and Terrible Beauty. I love that book! But I've never read the other two.|||It's "A Great and Terrible Beauty" then "Rebel Angel" then "The Sweet Far Thing". I enjoyed the first book, but I couldn't really get through more than half of the second book. I got bored with all the whining, I'm afraid. I do wish you better luck, though! I hope I helped!|||An excellent series~
1. A Great and Terrible Beauty
2. Rebel Angels
3. The Sweet Far Thing|||the first book is A Great And Terrible Beauty and then Rebel Angels the sweet far thing is the last one.
is she going to write a 4th book in the Gemma Doyle series? thanks.|||No. On the Gemma Doyle Trilogy website, it says that that A Sweet Far Thing is 'The third and final installment of the Gemma Doyle Trilogy.'
:( I was really hoping Kartik would come back from the grave or something like that.|||She's said nothing of that. I think The Sweet Far Thing is the last in the series. Haven't read it though, can't wait.|||I bought TheGreat and Terrible Beauty and The Rebel Angels, but haven't read them yet. What is the third book called?|||She is not planning on it, and I really don't want her to, I like the ending of The Sweet Far Thing the way it is. However, I hope that she writes more books!|||No it's trilogy so it stops at A sweet far Thing.
For my Religion class i have to read a book that deals with themes relating to morality and/or justice.
Like, stories dealing with sexuality, prejudice, poverty, militarism, the environment, media or other
It can be biographies, historial writings or play or other.
i have 2 books that i'm considering: "who do you think you are?" by Alice Munro and "a great and terrible beauty" by Libba Bray.
So i was hoping someone can help me pick an interesting book.. any suggestions will be welcome :D|||I love a great and terrible beauty, you might also consider a time to kill, it's long but there's a movie, it's brilliant!|||"The Giver" by Lois Lowry, I cannot remember what it is about but I'm sure it has something to do with freedom and justice. Try searching for it to see what it deals with.|||THE EDUCATION OF HENRY ADAMS by Henry Adams
THE VARIETIES OF RELIGIOUS EXPERIENCE by William James
UP FROM SLAVERY by Booker T. Washington
A ROOM OF ONE'S OWN by Virginia Woolf
SILENT SPRING by Rachel Carson
SELECTED ESSAYS, 1917-1932 by T. S. Eliot
THE DOUBLE HELIX by James D. Watson
SPEAK, MEMORY by Vladimir Nabokov|||A Clockwork Orange by Anthony Burgess presents an interesting debate of morality and justice quite superbly. A good read, too.|||spite fences by trudy krisher. good luck and god bless.|||Heal and Forgive: Forgiveness in the Face of Abuse, by Nancy Richards is a gripping, fast paced and quick read.
I have a japanese ps3 ( i live in japan ). Now, when i visit my family members (in California) during summers, i would probably buy some ps3 games or blue-rays movies. So I was seeing if there are ways to play and watch ps3 games and bray dvds from the states and japan, with my ps3 now.
thank you
by the way, it does play pirated movies. hahaha|||The blueray games for Ps3 are not region locked, so yes if you went to the States, feel free to buy as much as you want. As for movies im not sure. Maybe rent one, see if it works and then buy it.
is she comeing out with a fourth book to the beauty trilogy??? i REALLY need to no!!!???|||I believe trilogy just means three books. If you have read the third one, you will see how it ended.|||nooooooooooo :( (hints why its called a Trilogy)|||i have never heard of that before sorry but not to be mean but thanks for the points!!
How do you spell the girls name that sounds like Bray-dee?
Please don't give me your opinion on the name, just how would you spell it? Thanks.|||For a girl?
I would spell it Brady,or Bradi (Possibly Bradie or Braydi.I don't know though)|||I'm unaware that there's a girl's name which sounds like Brady, because there isn't.
Braydee is a particularly hilarious spelling of that masculine name, in that it contains Bray, the hee-haw sound a donkey makes.|||Brady, braidy, braydee, braidee|||I would spell it Bradi personally, but Braydee is cute =) or Braidee
Good luck =)|||Braiydeigh, Bradeeii, Breide, B-ray(dea).|||Brady.|||Brady|||Brady|||Bradey (:|||Brady|||Brady|||brady, unless you want to look ridiculous for spelling it really weird.|||Brady? I'm sure the name isn't a legit name any way
can anybody give me a summary of "the sweet far thing"?and also, what happens to gemma and kartrik??|||There are many difficulties going on in the realms. Gemma has promised each tribe a share of the magic but, after discovering some bad things about some, isn't sure if that's such a good idea or not.
Gemma loves Kartik but gets angry with him later in the book. They don't kiss until the middle of the book. She takes him into the realms with her and they find that they are "soul mates."
Circe is actually alive in the well where Gemma imprisoned her. Circe can talk but can't move. Gemma wants information but has to give Circe magic in exchange for it. Seeing as Gemma thinks Circe can't get out of the well, she gives her a bit of magic. But later, Circe escapes.
There is also a Tree of All Souls that is a source of magic in the WIinterlands. Eugina Spence was imprisoned there when Circe's tracker took her. Gemma has to destroy the Tree to stop evil from spreading throughout the realms. In the end, Gemma stabs it with a special dagger. Unfortunately, Kartik didn't move away from the tree in time and he dies.... =(
It turns out that Pippa and Felicity are... a bit more than friendly. Yes, they are lesbians and they kiss each other at one part....
Pippa was turning into a horrible Winterland creature since she did not cross over the river. She sacrafices this bunny to the Winterlands to get magic and becomes corrupted. The run-down castle where she lives in the realms begins to collaps, but she stands firm, yelling that she is the "Chosen One." The castles is destroyed and takes Pippa along with it.
Ann auditions for a musical play and gets the part, fortunately.
Felicity decides to move to Paris, where she will give up her skirts and sport trousers.
Gemma sails to America to go to university.
That's pretty much it. Sorry it's so jumbled up, but I was just typing out all that I could think of. Please message me if you have any other questions. This is my favorite book in the world and I would LOVE to test my knowledge of it!|||Actually, Kartik didn't die, he is trapped inside the tree forever. You can tell because it whispers gemma's name in the wind.and he made a bargain to exchange him for gemma. Report Abuse

oh, and Kartik dies and then Gemma moves to America

How did the protagonist get mad cow disease?
I haven't read the novel yet, but I've been skimming reviews and plot overviews. I'm thinking about buying it.
Also, if you've read it, did you think it was a good book?|||I believe he got it from eating a burger.
It's one of my all time favorite books. Buy it; you won't regret it. Libba Bray is a fabulous and witty writer. :)
I want to read the book "A Great and Terrible Beauty by Libba Bray. But I don't really like romance books. I like Fiction better , but even fiction books can kinda turn into romances sometimes. Can anybody tell me if this book is a romance? I would like to know before I read it. And also Im 14 is there anybody els about my age that can tell me if they liked it or not?|||Its full of romance its actually really beautiful. I am sixteen and I loved the book. You should get the book and over look the romance aspect because so many things are happening.|||There's a lot of romance in it, but it's mostly fantasy. I loved it, and read the whole series.
How old are you now if you were born May 14, 1971? This is supposedly Deanne Bray's age.|||On May 14, the person with a birthdate of May 14, 1971 will celebrate the 40th anniversary of their birth. 2011 - 1971 = 40
But, since today's date, March 20, 2011 is prior to May 14, the last birthday the person celebrated would be the one on May 14, 2010 which would be the 39th anniversary of their birth. Customarily, they would be considered 39 years old until May 14, 2011 at which time they would become 40 years old.
Short answer: 39|||39 years old, almost 40|||She's 39.
I really loved the first two Libba Bray books, (the third was weird and disappointing.) I liked the era and the magic, so is there any other books like that out there? Any suggestions, please? Thanks!|||have u tried the bible?|||Wicked Lovely by Melissa Marr
Blue Bloods by Melissa de la Cruz
The Stolen One by Suzanne Crowley
I haven't been able to find anything as awesome as A Great and Terrible Beauty, but those are some I kinda liked. I liked the Stolen One the best out of those three. Happy reading!
College or pro. Note the category this question is in-- who is best looking (cutest), not who has the highest QB rating, like the last time I asked this question. So far in the bowl season, Tennesee's Bray has my vote. (Yes, I do also enjoy the games -- my couch potato legs get tired from scrambling for extra yardage or trying to bring down the ball carrier.)|||I'm not a football fan, so I don't know that many, but I do kinda like Matt Leinart from Arizona Cardinals.
I wasn't initially pleased to see this trade. Hopefully this will turn out good like the Arroyo trade.|||Kearns and Lopez are solid young players. I think the Reds may have payed to steep of a price to help out their bullpen.|||Yawn...not much quality here except for Lopez, though Bray could be a good one in time. This trade won't be a diference-maker for either side.|||I am a Nats fan and the only problem i have with this trade is they got rid of Bray who is a good young pitcher. That was a big mistake in getting rid of him|||zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz|||Means Soriano is moving...|||Reds fan here, kinda disappointed, but i'll get over it. I heard bray is a future star so i'm feeling a little bit better about it. I really hate to see kearns go because he is an all-around outfielder, he can hit, run, and field. My only problem is trading for Royce Clayton, thaqts a big WTF. should have just gotten another prospect, because my reds have a ton of infielders, including castro, freel, olmedo, encarnacion, hatteberg, aurilia, and phillips, so 7 people to play 4 positions, now make that 8.|||i think that the reds are stupid and im not sure what they were thinking sure they got some bullpen help but the help sure wasnt worth the price. Felipe Lopez is a very good ss who is a all around player he can run hit for av and power he can field i also think that kearns is a solid ball player.the biggest reason this doesnt make sence to me is b/c they are in the pennant race i jus dont get it|||Being a Reds fan for 31 years, I think this trade may work. It is not the hitting that has been the problem, it is the pitching and defense. Felipe Lopez, despite being a good hitter, was rotten on defense. Austin Kearns will be missed, but at least that is one less strikeout in the lineup. When a team has three big men in the lineup, that is three chances in a row of strikeouts, especially when all three swing for the fence.
People need to stop getting so attach to players that they lose sight at what is important to the team. Defense and pitching win ball games. Look at the teams that have won the World Series in the last few years. Big men like Kearns can be replaced and shortstops like Lopez are easy to replace. Neither was an all-star. If the Reds traded an all star or potential all-star, then I would have a problem. Neither were all-stars.|||They must REALLY like Bray. Looks like the Nats are getting drunk in celebration over this one.|||I hate the trade personally. I am probably the biggest Austin Kearns fan and I did like Lopez. Yes, they did need pitching, and it might help them out but I wish they would have gotten rid of someone other than kearns. I'm in Louisville, Ky and watch the reds play every day and now I guess I'll only see Kearns when Reds are playing Nationals. I think getting rid of Dunn would have been a better deal. Dunn isn't great defensively and his average has been hovering around .240 for the last few years.
Initial estimates suggested up to 40 people were struck down after eating at his three-star Michelin restaurant in Bray, Berkshire.
But the figure has now leapt to 400 possible cases, said investigators from the Health Protection Agency (HPA).
The TV chef last week decided to close the famous restaurant after diners suffered vomiting and diarrhoea, and was hoping to reopen just days later.
Tests by his own food consultants ruled out food poisoning, indicating it was likely to be a gastro virus.
Sabotage or plain bad cooking??
http://news.sky.com/skynews/Home/UK-News鈥?/a>|||I have a friend who is an Environmental health officer. 10 years ago she was on the 'restaurants' section...lets just say our choice of eateries halved overnight.
It was always the nicest looking restaurants that had the worst horror stories.
I'm not saying this is the case with the Fat Duck cos these things do just happen..it doesn't always indicate hygiene or such like -communicable diseases amongst humans is just the price we pay for being pack animals!
I read this week that Heston shaves his hair because he has really tight curls and it would look like an afro...this has freaked me far more than the other news...Can you see him with mad curly hair?|||Apparently, they all have what is commonly known as Mediaitis! This disease starts with a select few obtaining a bout of food poisioning in a popular restaurant, then, due to an increase in media activity, the bug develops and morphs to this highly contaigous form!
Symptoms include skiving off work, lying, induced vomiting and a heavy dose of laxatives.
In other words, some will have food poisoning, but most will fake it for their moment of fame.|||Neither. My son has had severe vomiting and diarrhoea all week, and has passed it on (Thanks!!) to everyone else in the family. He got it at nursery, almost every other child in his room has it, or has had it in the past week. I don't blame the nursery - these things just happen. People get ill.
Heston has done everything he needed to, it's just one of those unfortunate things.|||Hmm well it could be food poisoining however we had a family get together where every one came down with a d and v bug except myself and my sis in law,who were vegetarians at the time- one of the relations ended up in hospital and docs said it could have been a virus brought in by the caterers or airbourne in the room,but odd that the only veges didn't get ill?|||There is only so much messing around that food can take.It was bound to happen at some time. it,s possible that it wasnt the food that caused it but the water supply.That happened to me once in a hotel i owned in Cornwall.All the guests were ill and also the guests in the hotel behind mine because the mains water was contaminated by sewage--a nightmare for anyone connected with catering|||Fatuous self congratulation and a large pinch of 'head up ones own @rse' in my opinion. I don't doubt the guy is a genius, did you see the Victorian feast thing? My only problem with it is that there wasn't one thing that made me go "Mmm, that looks nice" Too much messing about with food and not much real substance!|||Heston was on TV yesterday, claiming it was a virus, as people had phoned in and told him that even though they had eaten there, that their children had caught the same thing, and were not at the restaurant.
Who knows though? Suppose it'll all come out in the wash.|||It's probably a virus but for it to have been passed on to his customers in one evening I'm presuming one of his staff was the source, in which case maybe their hygiene standards need improving. Those viruses are nasty though and easily spread.|||probably just a narvo virus
thing is though, the more you play about with food, the more you open up pathways of infection
keep it simple, do it well|||Wrong type of snail in the porridge... http://declubz.com/blog/wp-content/uploa鈥?/a>|||He lost a fortune didnt he? I suspect sabotage or possibly an angry customer annoyed at paying 拢130 for bacon and egg ice cream and snail porridge!|||I'm pretty sure it was just a virus.
Still, theres no such thing as bad publicity. even more people will be on the waiting list to pay a fortune for his revolting creations.
Theres nowt as queer as folk........|||A fat snail.|||idn sorry|||Undoubtedly Snail Porridge.......Who on earth would want to eat that!

Deadly little secret: by Laurie Stolarz
The Forest of hands and teeth :Carrie Ryan
evermore: alyson noel
a great and terrible beauty:Libby bray|||How long is the trip? Out of all these, I suggest A Great And Terrible Beauty. It is very long so you won't finish it halfway through your trip, and by far the best out of the 4--all of which I've read.|||I've never read any of them. Sorry.
Answer my question? Thank you.
http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?鈥?/a>
-_-_-|||The forest of hands and teeth. How long is the trip? Why not take all four?|||I have only read Evermore, and quite recently. I love her as an author, but I must say I was very dissapointed. The best part was the preview to the sequel! I would still read it to form your own opinion, just maybe bring a backup book? :)
Goodluck!|||Why not bring all four?
But if that just isn't an option, I suggest Evermore.|||Well I haven't read any of them. But I looked up the summaries of each book and Deadly Little Secret by Laurie Stolarz seems the most interesting to me.
Hope I helped and have a fun trip =]|||A Great and Terrible Beauty. If not, then The Forest of Hands and Teeth.
I haven't read A Great and Terrible Beauty or Deadly Little Secret, but my best friend absolutely *adores* A great and terrible beauty.
I myself have read The Forest and Evermore. I didn't like Evermore at all, and The Forest was great up until the ending.
I'm in a Regency / Victorian phase now. I enjoyed Pride and Prejudice, but liked Jane Eyre more. I also really liked the Gemma Doyle trilogy by Libba Bray, as well as Beauty by Robin McKinley. However, I did not like Gossip Girl, the books and the television series.
Will I enjoy the Luxe series then? Are they as good as some of the books I have mentioned above?|||Someone mentioned that the books were the Gossip Girl of that era.
I started reading it and was interested throughout, but I couldn't finish the series. Its actually quite a easy read, but it wasn't exactly my taste.
Pick it up and see if you like it; I might have to try again.|||Yeah, it's not bad. It's actually quite intersting.
I think the Gemma Doyle Trilogy was better, but the other books are quite well matched.
so i read A Great and Terrible Beauty by Libba Bray and i had a couple questions.
1)did you like it? i sorta liked it,...
2)i didnt get the part about breaking the rune thingies and Gemma's mother "dying" and already being dead and stuffs... could you explain it?
3)did you feel like it was childish at times, and good at other times?
4)Gemma is a bad name. i know, not a question, but still.
5)what was with her mom?|||1. Yeah, i did like it. But its one of those books that don't really leave that much of an impression on me
2. The runes held the power of the realms. This is the way the Order held/ controlled the amount of power being used by whoever.
3. Not childish. And it was definitely good
4. I like the name Gemma, its different.
5. Virginia Doyle was actually Mary Dowd, the friend of Sarah Reese-Toome aka Circe aka Ms. Moore. When she died she went to the realms to wait for when Gemma discovers she can go there too. When Gemma destroyed the runes and let loose the magic in the realms Virginia/Mary crossed over to where souls go. It wasn't really mentioned, but if you understand her character you would know that she would not let herself be corrupted by staying in the realms for too long. She crossed over after the Runes were destroyed because she knew what could happen once the magic was loose.|||havent read book sry.. will read as soon as i get a copy
******************
nope i dunno wat the cryin thing it but every day (and i mean EVERY SINGLE DAY) todd says hi ahana so did u have fun with ur brother.. n then he follows me around 4 the rest of the period singing u had sex with ur bro|||i liked it, i bit annoying at times but pretty good.
well she dident die, she moved on to heaven i guess,she was in between worlds sort of.
at times it was childish, but yeah it also had its moments.
its popular in britain i think.
dont know what you mean? mabey you need to finish the series and somethings might be clarified for you.|||1. I was kind of mixed about it....but it was the best of the trilogy.
2. I was confused about it too...idk
3. The writing style? Yes, it was, but it had its moments.
4. Hahaha. Yeah it's very different.
5. Her mom died because she messed with Sarah Rees-Toome(aka Circe) and the magic of the realms...yeah thats a terrible explanation.
Anything by Tamora Pierce except the "Circle of Magic" series is probably right up your alley. Try Trickster's Queen first.|||i love the libba bray series they r awesome and i can't wait for the next one to come out!!!!! twilight is good, maximum ride is a good series but it's mostly adventure with a little bit of romance here and there..........inkheart is good too =]|||how about...

In terms of fantasy, I've read things like The Mortal Instruments by Cassandra Claire, The Darkest Powers by Kelley Armstrong, virtually everything by Amelia Atwater-Rhodes, Ballad by Maggie Steifvater (which is about faeries, if you didn't know), and a plethora of other fantastical novels.

Suffice to say, I'm desperate for an entertaining read right about now. My favorite book series include "The Gemma Doyle Trilogy" by Libba Bray and "The Twilight Saga" by Stephenie Meyer.

I'm not really picky when it comes to genre, so feel free to be creative with that. It just seems like all the suggestions I get are for books written by the above authors, which, y'know, isn't all that helpful given my position. Any new suggestions would be greatly appreciated :D
And for the record, I've read a lot of the popular YA series as well, including Harry Potter, The Inheritance Trilogy, most of Meg Cabot's stuff, His Dark Materials, Chronicles of Narnia, etc. I'm not really looking for uber-mainstream stuff right now.|||Ghost Boy by Ian Lawrence

random question :)|||Yes kind of, because he never see's her again as the chosen take her... But Bray finds Amber again a few episodes into season 3...
So even if Danni hadn't have got taken by the chosen, he'd have still dumped her for Amber as he loves Amber and gets her Pregnant, even her son is called Bray...But Unfortunately Bray never see's baby Bray as he gets taken away once Amber starts labour in a barn because they get banished from the city at the end of season 3 because Ebony schemes to get in the running at the election for city leader and Bray and Amber speak out against her and the fact that she's conned her way into being city leader and she sprung the guardian causing Ned to be killed ..

In which page of The Sweet Far Thing by Libba Bray is Felicity's ghost story about the four girls? The quote goes sort of like: "Are you ready? Shall I tell you a story? Once upon a time there were four girls. One was pretty. One was clever. One was charming. And one... One was mysterious. But these girls were damaged. Something not right about the lot of them.

My dog Mac was stolen from our family home in Bray on the 26th of April 2010. He is a 2 year old Jack Russell terrier. He is tan and white, fairly small and has a slightly longer tail than most Jack Russell Terriers. He is chipped and neutered and was wearing a blue bandanna collar with a name tag (though I doubt he still has that on).
We are devastated, he is completely a part of the family, and pretty much acted as the third child in the house.
He has a fantastic nature, is a bright and alert dog and pretty much everyone just falls in love with him.
Since we put the word out that he was taken, people have been really fantastic, be they friends, neighbors or even complete strangers, everyone has done what they can to help. Lots of people have posted about it on twitter, facebook,blogs and various lost and found sites. Many people have been in touch, looking for updates, other photos, posters and more information, so to help with that, I thought it would be worth setting up this site.
Hopefully I鈥檒l have good news soon, either way, I鈥檒l update when I can.

My name's Braden, but people have given me the nickname Bray. For some reason, I don't know why they gave me a nickname. Is my name not good enough for them to say or something?
Why do people give nicknames to others?|||I think it's a sign of familiarity and affection. People who call you Bray probably like you and feel comfortable calling you by a more familiar sounding name.
People are also lazy by nature and nicknames are easy to remember and say.|||When I give someone a nickname I ask them if it is OK. Most of the time they like the nickname. Most of the time if they are quys I call them by their last names. It is more personable that way.|||I'm probably very guilty of that.
We called my youngest daughter---"Runt" because she was so tiny.
I nicknamed one guy "Iggy" and it stuck--
I nicknamed one guy "Whistle Britches" and it stuck
Nicknames come in all types--some are shorter versions of your name and some are completely different. They are given in fun and camaraderie.|||It is easier to remember their names and it is a way of feeling you have a friend.|||It's a pneumonic device to help them remember the person.
It can be a reference to their physical appearance, their speech, their mannerisms, heredity, whatever.
Be glad that they recognize you and aren't ignoring you instead.|||...you're part o the family ...like joey the fish|||Well I don't know why i got Liss as my nickname, it's just a shorter version of Elyssa.
But my other nickname Elsa is easy to explain, it's what the stupid teachers at my school always call me when they first meet me, i don't know why, there's quite obviously a 'Y' in my name.|||Nicknames as long as not those teasing and mean ones are actually good! not tat ur name is particularly difficult to pronounce, but having a nickname is a sign of "closeness, warm and trust" between people.Calling ur real name is just too formal and not fun at all. we need something special like a nickname to bind us together :)|||I guess people just enjoy giving nicknames to people because it makes you more personal to them. everyone calls me Cack-hand lill, because im left-handed.|||Nicknames are terms of affection. You should be happy that you have such good friends.|||nick names r pronounced by their friends it give u another identity to that people who will love u|||well.ppl rem my name easily cos of e 'bra'.

I read the first two books, and I cant wait to read the 3rd of the Trilogy by Libba Bray. My father lost his job, so we are currently struggling with money. The library does not have the book avaliable to read (I'm on hold as the 179 person!!!!). I really want to finish the series! I'm intersted in what happens with Gemma and Kartik. Please, can anyone help me?|||Sorry but what you are asking could cause other people to lose their jobs in the publishing industry. So I suggest you wait your turn at the library.
Meg Cabot has this to say about epiracy:
"But what about the many hard-working people who edited, copy-edited, copy-set, printed, designed, publicized, and did whatever else was necessary to get that book into print? The publishing industry is in big trouble right now, just like all those other industries we hear about on TV every night during the evening news…only no one is bailing the publishing industry out.
So publishers are having to lay people off, shut down whole divisions, and cancel book contracts. Projects some of us have been working on are being “post-poned indefinitely.” One of my best friends just got laid off from her job last week. And of course, bookstores all over the country are having to shut down due to flagging sales.
This is just wrong."|||You can get it from amazon...

Their fake outrage is sometimes amusing. If some people actually believed the Republicans' ranting about "up or down votes" then they must be confused.|||Just trying to find out if the Democrats like having their own tactics used against them.|||It appears that the subjective divide is being played against the people again. Unparalleled ideologue extremists are being compared to "qualified and uncontroversial" to justify what is essentially a hostage taking on behalf of a special interest.
There are still Republicans with enough objectivity to see the difference between now and then, but the constant flaming of entertainers has made them a minority in their own party.
Newt Gingrich tried to take the whole Gov hostage and got the blame for messing up a lot of summer vacations. This is less visible but its going to cost them. The descent of the Republican party continues to my dismay but the delight of socialist. It is precisely the fools who took you on, that are heralding in the next wave of socialist buffoonery.
In A Great and Terrible Beauty, by Libba Bray, what's the poem in the first few pages? I believe it's "Paradise Lost", by John Milton. If I'm write, where does the excerpt start and end? While I'm at it, does anyone know any other poems with that fey and ethereal quality to it? I need to find a poem to memorize, preferably one that's 20-25 lines long.|||I haven't read the book, but from a quick Google search I believe the epigraph is from Tennyson's "The Lady of Shalott." Full text here:
I can't get the links to work so I'm pasting it here:
On either side the river lie
Long fields of barley and of rye,
That clothe the wold and meet the sky;
And through the field the road run by
To many-tower'd Camelot;
And up and down the people go,
Gazing where the lilies blow
Round an island there below,
The island of Shalott.
Willows whiten, aspens quiver,
Little breezes dusk and shiver
Through the wave that runs for ever
By the island in the river
Flowing down to Camelot.
Four grey walls, and four grey towers,
Overlook a space of flowers,
And the silent isle imbowers
The Lady of Shalott.
By the margin, willow veil'd,
Slide the heavy barges trail'd
By slow horses; and unhail'd
The shallop flitteth silken-sail'd
Skimming down to Camelot:
But who hath seen her wave her hand?
Or at the casement seen her stand?
Or is she known in all the land,
The Lady of Shalott?
Only reapers, reaping early,
In among the bearded barley
Hear a song that echoes cheerly
From the river winding clearly;
Down to tower'd Camelot;
And by the moon the reaper weary,
Piling sheaves in uplands airy,
Listening, whispers, " 'Tis the fairy
The Lady of Shalott."
There she weaves by night and day
A magic web with colours gay.
She has heard a whisper say,
A curse is on her if she stay
To look down to Camelot.
She knows not what the curse may be,
And so she weaveth steadily,
And little other care hath she,
The Lady of Shalott.
And moving through a mirror clear
That hangs before her all the year,
Shadows of the world appear.
There she sees the highway near
Winding down to Camelot;
There the river eddy whirls,
And there the surly village churls,
And the red cloaks of market girls
Pass onward from Shalott.
Sometimes a troop of damsels glad,
An abbot on an ambling pad,
Sometimes a curly shepherd lad,
Or long-hair'd page in crimson clad
Goes by to tower'd Camelot;
And sometimes through the mirror blue
The knights come riding two and two.
She hath no loyal Knight and true,
The Lady of Shalott.
But in her web she still delights
To weave the mirror's magic sights,
For often through the silent nights
A funeral, with plumes and lights
And music, went to Camelot;
Or when the Moon was overhead,
Came two young lovers lately wed.
"I am half sick of shadows," said
The Lady of Shalott.
A bow-shot from her bower-eaves,
He rode between the barley sheaves,
The sun came dazzling thro' the leaves,
And flamed upon the brazen greaves
Of bold Sir Lancelot.
A red-cross knight for ever kneel'd
To a lady in his shield,
That sparkled on the yellow field,
Beside remote Shalott.
The gemmy bridle glitter'd free,
Like to some branch of stars we see
Hung in the golden Galaxy.
The bridle bells rang merrily
As he rode down to Camelot:
And from his blazon'd baldric slung
A mighty silver bugle hung,
And as he rode his armor rung
Beside remote Shalott.
All in the blue unclouded weather
Thick-jewell'd shone the saddle-leather,
The helmet and the helmet-feather
Burn'd like one burning flame together,
As he rode down to Camelot.
As often thro' the purple night,
Below the starry clusters bright,
Some bearded meteor, burning bright,
Moves over still Shalott.
His broad clear brow in sunlight glow'd;
On burnish'd hooves his war-horse trode;
From underneath his helmet flow'd
His coal-black curls as on he rode,
As he rode down to Camelot.
From the bank and from the river
He flashed into the crystal mirror,
"Tirra lirra," by the river
Sang Sir Lancelot.
She left the web, she left the loom,
She made three paces through the room,
She saw the water-lily bloom,
She saw the helmet and the plume,
She look'd down to Camelot.
Out flew the web and floated wide;
The mirror crack'd from side to side;
"The curse is come upon me," cried
The Lady of Shalott.
In the stormy east-wind straining,
The pale yellow woods were waning,
The broad stream in his banks complaining.
Heavily the low sky raining
Over tower'd Camelot;
Down she came and found a boat
Beneath a willow left afloat,
And around about the prow she wrote
The Lady of Shalott.
And down the river's dim expanse
Like some bold seer in a trance,
Seeing all his own mischance --
With a glassy countenance
Did she look to Camelot.
And at the closing of the day
She loosed the chain, and down she lay;
The broad stream bore her far away,
The Lady of Shalott.
Lying, robed in snowy white
That loosely flew to left and right --
The leaves upon her falling light --
Thro' the noises of the night,
She floated down to Camelot:
And as the boat-head wound along
The willowy hills and fields among,
They heard her singing her last song,
The Lady of Shalott.
Heard a carol, mournful, holy,
Chanted loudly, chanted lowly,
Till her blood was frozen slowly,
And her eyes were darkened wholly,
Turn'd to tower'd Camelot.
For ere she reach'd upon the tide
The first house by the water-side,
Singing in her song she died,
The Lady of Shalott.
Under tower and balcony,
By garden-wall and gallery,
A gleaming shape she floated by,
Dead-pale between the houses high,
Silent into Camelot.
Out upon the wharfs they came,
Knight and Burgher, Lord and Dame,
And around the prow they read her name,
The Lady of Shalott.
Who is this? And what is here?
And in the lighted palace near
Died the sound of royal cheer;
And they crossed themselves for fear,
All the Knights at Camelot;
But Lancelot mused a little space
He said, "She has a lovely face;
God in his mercy lend her grace,
The Lady of Shalott."|||Go to Yahoo's search engine, put in a couple of short phrases in quotes, and you'll get websites. Or you could go here and use the FIND function, which is probably under EDIT in your toolbar:

The Millenium Trilogy, starting with The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo by Steig Larsson
The Gemma Doyle trilogy and Beauty Queens are all available for Kindle & well worth reading.|||I'm 19 and have just finished reading A Great and Terrible Beauty by Libba Bray and I absolutely LOVED it! Seriously. I love the whole Victorian element to the book, as I've never read anything like that before, and her writing is very poetic. The story itself is intriguing and the characters are very unique, i cannot wait to get the next two in the trilogy so i definitely say go for it!!|||I highly recommend all of John Green's books, as well as Sarah Rees Brennan's The Demon's Lexicon trilogy.

yes, i know, it just came out today...but i'm DYING to know what happens, and i can't actually get the book for another week...so PLEASE answer these two questions (ppl who don't want the book spoiled, just don't read the answers!)
1. your personal opinion of how the book is (scale of 1-10, and why)
2. if kartik and gemma actually get together!!!!
thanks so much :)|||Are you sure you're up for spoilers? Ok. For anyone reading this, please STOP if you do NOT want spoilers! So, please don't complain that I've spoiled it for you! You could've stopped when you wanted.
I just did a marathon reading of The Sweet Far Thing yesterday and so...:
1. Score: 9
This book was a beautiful, and sadly bittersweet, end to the series. At times, certain scenes will make you forget to breathe and other times it will tug at your heart strings. I've noticed that this book, more than the others, is more infused with morals and values, presenting subtle lessons along the way that are invaluable for an feminist or otherwise. There are themes of free will and choice as Gemma and the other characters struggle to understand the nature of destiny and their purpose. But the book also frustrates you with the actions that characters take and the actions they did not take. Did one certain character truly have to hold all of the burden of the Tree of Souls in the end because they, by chance, happened to be nearest it? You'll get what I mean when you near the end of the book, with the final climatic scene.
2. Kartik and Gemma do get together. It was beautiful. In fact, I was really surprised at the extent they got together... but all rabid fans will not be disappointed. I couldn't help squealing! =D Yet, it's true that with the highest hopes, comes the greatest fall. At times, you'll scream with frustration and plead with an imaginary Libba Bray in your head to be kinder. You'll begin wild imaginings where you hope and hope what you read isn't true and you HAVE to flip to the end, only to be disappointed. Or maybe it's just me. So, please don't get your hopes too high. Just enjoy the moments that they're together. I'd like to think that the Order and Rakshana symbol of love (two hands clasped in a circle) you'll see in the book aptly describes Gemma and Kartik.
As Kartik once said, "The hands are protected by the circle, the symbol of eternity...because there is no telling where it begins or ends, nor does it matter."
I hope that helps!|||they dont get together forever though. Report Abuse

that have been sighted in North America? I am referring to creatures such as the Beast of Bray Road and the Michigan Dogman.
Has anyone read Theo Brown's work on Black Dogs?
|||I've never heard of Dogmen, but Black Shuck myths are common-common-common! Although sightings seem to be focussed in the British Isles, I'm pretty sure I've heard of them elsewhere too, so maybe they are the same sort of thing! (Sorry, I think I've just answered with a "maybe", that's a bit useless of me!)
If their parents are jackasses, they should be allowed to bray!|||because they're not donkeys...well, some are.|||pray yes they can in their heads....goodnight folks...pray for my killed back...ugh|||Or *********? I used to enrage the bantams!|||Err....you haven't been in a first grade classroom in a while I see. Sounds like a whole herd of donkeys.|||I don't know why they can't bray, it is the first time I heard of that.
I know they can't carry buns or smoke bot in school.|||They do, and so do some teachers - eeeee aaaaaww|||They do in the south. It is called praying. One may as well bray like an a@$$ though. If that fundie indoctrination in schools keeps up, donkeys will pass us up in intelligence.|||If you mean pray, they can't pray in school depending on which school they go to,
If they attend a government or a public school, it has no specific religion for a reason.
An example might be a muslim family wanting to send there children to a school. They can't afford a muslim school but they don't want to send them to a Christian school either, being muslims.
So they chose public.
Public schools don't have special religions. Or races. Praying in them would be excluding or making some students feel uncomfortable if they are a different religion.
In catholic, Jewish, Muslims or any other schools with specialized religions in them are allowed to pray there specialized religion because it is a specialized school for that reason.
hope i helped :)|||Children are aloud to pray in school anytime they please, unless persuading other children to become apart of a specific religion. It is stated in the first amendment of the Bill of Rights.
'Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof...'
In other words, the government can make no law favoring an establishment of a religion, or stating that one cannot preform a religious act anywhere, at anytime.|||because donkeys don't go to school|||They're not allowed to speak in donkey tongues during class.|||I have to agree with KarloZ.

Hi,
My husband and I saw a house we loved in Santa Clara, California, on Bray avenue but the crime reports website has several thefts (4 in the last 3 days) and several registered offenders living nearby. This is our first home, we have been living in apartments throughout so we never did check the crime reports website. Having seen it now, i am a little overwhelmed with all the information.
I am not sure how to use that information. We are also new to that area and would like an opinion about that part of Santa Clara.
Thank you so much for your help!
Thanks!
AM|||That is gang territory. Unless you can handle yourself around a bunch of gun carrying drug dealers you should be looking elsewhere.
Try Cupertino.
Ive heared that the alan bray dvd teach your dog to win is a good dvd but i would only be interested in the puppy section and im told that that section is tiny, can some one please tell me the basics of what he says in this section on play etc? Does he play with his puppy very lightly when tugging?
When getting a dog 'onto' a toy what is peoples advice? my little dog currently plays indoors, but havnt yet tried outside, he does play with me outside, ie chases me but havnt tried using a toy yet.
Any advice is great, thank you.|||First of all. You should not be attempting any sort of full blown Agility until the dog is at least a year old.
Secondly, find something like a squeaky toy, rag pull or even a tennis ball that your dog adores, you can use this to lure him onto and through the obstacles.
You can start your dog off on elements of Agility before he's a year old, you can start to build the muscles and introduce him to some of the concepts.
You can encourage older pups to scramble up and over obstacles and banks, walk along the tops of walls. All of these activities will prepare him for later Agility lessons.
Start including the words you will use in Agility in his training
OVER - over an obstacle
HERE - come towards you
CLOSE or SIT - at the start
AWAY - send him away from you
DROP or DOWN - lie down on the table.
HOLD or STAY - wait on a mark
SLOW or STEADY - slow down to hit a mark
UP - Table, 'A' frame and walkway
BIG OVER - long jump
THROUGH - tyre, tunnel
WEAVE - poles
JUMP - tells your dog to look for a jump
TUNNEL - tells him to look for a tunnel
A FRAME - tells him to look for an A frame
WALKUP - tells him to look for the walkway
Remember to choose words specific to Agility that you never use for normal training.
Train yourself to always use the same word for the same action.
Usually the biggest problem when first training a dog for Agility is the Tunnel. So if you can find yourself a "tunnel" and start calling your dog through one of those, then your problems will be dramatically reduced when you first start proper training. You can also start them on weaves, stick bamboo poles in the ground.
Basically you can start on all the ground elements, it's just the jumping you need to leave until he's a year old.
While the dog is learning the elements, keep things slow and sure. Support your dog on the above ground elements and do your best to prevent him falling off. Use loads of treats and encouragement.
The one element that may actually frighten your dog (after he gets over that dark restrictive tunnel) to start with is the see-saw (teeter-totter in American). The footing is very unstable and it moves, so major support needed with this element.
You can start training a pup over very small "jumps", basically a pole on the ground or very low so that they get used to the idea of targeting a "jump".
Last of all, Agility is -FUN- it should never be a chore or something to be fearful of. During training you must always aim towards your dog getting truly excited about the prospect of this faboulous "game"; this means that -you- must get excited.|||I haven't seen the dvd but do know Alan Bray.I've trained dogs & competed in agility for 24 years.
The way dogs are trained & the speed of rounds has changed a great deal in that time.Dogs are now trained to have high drive as well as acuracy.Heres my advice but it depends on the breed you are training.Collies like tennis balls on a rope.Other breeds may prefer raggy toys.
The aim is to have an adult dog that grips & tugs with all its power.The tugging pressure increases with age & confidence.The focus on winning the toy must be so strong that the dog will not let go until given a command to do so.
Until puppies have finished teething at around 6 months old it is not advisable to play tugging.If they feel pain while playing it can put them off tugging for good!
Until that age I drag toys across the floor very quickly in a teasing way.This brings out the chase instinct & the want to grab it.
When they grab it I let go & let them have it for a few seconds before I repeat the excercise.I will tell them 'Get It' in a gruff voice.
This 'get it' command will be useful later on to keep them gripping when I teach tugging.
Play a few inside then go outside & play. Then come back inside & play again.
Always end the game while the dog still wants the toy.
Put the toy away & only use it for that game.
This toy is special & is only for interacting with you.
Don't let him chase you unless you have the toy in sight & let him have it at the end of the chase.
If you don't it can lead to biting of trousers & jumping up.
Hope that helps in some way.
It is easier to demonstraight it than write it. Thats why the dvd would help you more.I know you say you only need the puppy bit, but won't you need the rest for later when you start to train agility?
Have fun with your little pup & I hope he makes a successful agility dog for you.
Okay I am so lost how do the guys at the begging of the book get the necklace from gemma's moms corpse when in the first book her mom gives her the necklace?
OH and do gemma kartik end up together|||It's not Gemma's mom's corpse. It's someone completely different. You'll find out later when you read further. And Gemma and Kartik do get together....but...you'll find out when you keep reading.
and how would you spell them?
Breagan (BREE-gen not BRAY-gen)
Alayni (Uh-Lay-Knee)
Kaisley
Madelie (Mad-Uh-Lee)
Lyrica
I did not make any of these names up. I found them on a website for uncommon girl names and these were the better ones.
Opinions? Not using any of these names for my children. Only one i somewhat like is Madelie, but spelled Madalee.|||You didn't make them up, but that doesn't mean they are real names.
Breagan is the only one that might be real, and if it is, it's definitely a boy's name.|||I have no problem with any name but I wish parents would remember that the kid has to go through life with the name that they chose, often for some reason that has nothing to do with the success of the child. Our first question when we picked our children's names was: How are peers going to react to it? Then, how are teachers? And finally, how is a prospective employer going to visualize the person holding this name? My feeling is: Pick a first name that others will not have difficulty pronouncing, spelling or feeling comfortable with. Save the creativity for the middle name which becomes an initial anyway.
For instance, if your surname is Schmidt, don't you dare name your son Fuller.|||In my opinion alone I think names that you can't pronounce are an embarrassment for a child and everyone she may meet. They are all daft and over complicated except Kaisley which sound a bit harsh and made up for the hell of it. To be honest I think they are all dreadful.|||I really like those names:) but then again, i like unusal names like Xenia for a girl and Alexavier for a guy. But I also like Madelie, it original, feminine, yet it seems like it should be a classic|||Hmm...i like how the Alayni and Madelie one sound, but i feel there isnt a way to make them look good. Kaisley is kinda cute. Like a mix of Kelsey and Paisley. Lyrica is nice but i wouldnt use it.|||I don't like any of them. They sound trashy to me.|||Briegan
Alayni
Kaisley
Maddelie
Lyrica
I kind of like them. The name Lyric (not Lyrica) has always been my favorite weird name.|||Kaisley is the only one that is remotely tolerable.
Maybe: Paisley, Reagan, Oakleigh, Kaymie, Leighton, Lucy.
God bless! : )|||They're actually pretty good, good job! But they seem like alterations of more common names:
Alayni - Alaine/Elaine
Madelie - Madeline
My favorite is: Madelie|||Briegan
Alanie
Kayslie
Madalee
Lyrica
i would have to agree with you that Madalee is the only really nice one...|||I actually know someone who has a 4 year old named Madalie.
I think it's super cute.
Not a fan of any of the others though.|||i like
Breagan (BREE-gen not BRAY-gen)
Kaisley
the other ones just sound foreign|||I like Alyani
It's a work of art, I have to confess that I cried less when one of my best friends died. It sounds vile, but I felt so close to Kartik, and- oh, no, I'm bawling again.|||I TOTALLY GET YOU
OH MY GOD
I was crying so hard
and depressed for awhile
I couldn't beleive it
it was just a total shock
I can't beleive it had to end like that
I JUST CANT|||Yeah Libba Bray is great!! but i would cry more at my friends funural to be honest lol :)|||What's the question? If it's bad that you cried more with this novel than when you're friend passed? If that is it, then, no I don't think that you should feel bad. It all depends on where you're at emotionally in you life at the moment, or duration of when the event occured. I'm the same way. I look back and analyze how much I cried compared to another time when something terrible happened. But you can't blame yourself, it's your state of mind. Plus, you can cry about things long after what happend happend. Some things just affect you and some things effect you. But one way or another, all stays with you throughout your life, and you will look back and reflect, and hopefully one day not analyze, and just feel. You'll still FEEL fore the rest of your life. there's not a limited space in time that you HAVE to cry in orelse you're viewed as EVIL! Don't worry, the fact that you didn't cry also may mean that you haven't accepted it or are in denial. SEE THERE'S LOTS MORE TO ANALYZE THAN JUST WHEN THE RIGHT TIME TO CRY WAS OR WASN'T USED!! lol...just thoughts, Denial is our friend and foe. Tears represent pain, joy, fear, sorrow, contentment, .....and the list goes on and on. You be the judge........just not the judge of yourself.|||I know what you mean by feeling close to Kartik, I think Libba Bray is brilliant with drawing you into the characters, but I HATED the third book - I didn't cry at all, I was too mad! The ending totally ruined the rest of the series for me, because it ends and she's crying and all alone. What kind of ending is that?! I think if they'd BOTH somehow been part of the Tree of All Souls it would have been better! But whatever... Maybe I'll just have to rewrite the ending for myself. ;)
I'm 15 years old and I love reading. I've ran out of books and am looking for recommendations for a great teen romance novel.
I've read the Twilight series (who hasn't) and am quite sick of vampires.
I've read most Sarah Dessen novels, Libba Bray's, The Luxe series and others.
Suggestions are much appreciated, thanks! :)|||Ohhh I love The Luxe and I do like Twilight but I'm not really into vampires either. But I might recommend one because it's really good but not like twilight =)
I'll give a little review along with other books I liked to recommed =)
And also try to get a mix of everything then with romance, friendship, and meaning鈽烩樅鈽?=)
Perfect Chemistry (this book is a cute romance novel that shows that you shouldn't judge a book by it's cover because you don't know what there really is ^_~)
Flipped (this book is a cute romance novel with troubles of falling in love and being in love as a teenager. Also a heartwarming story.)
The Private series by Kate Brian (if you like romance novels with a twist of secrets and scandals, this book is great without being like Gossip Girl!!)
Kira Kira (Sometimes I take a break from romance and read books like this which is sad yet meaningful.)
Thousand Splendid Suns By Khaled Hosseini (THE BEST BOOK EVER!!! I think it's sad yet meaningful and makes you feel grateful of all our rights us women have these days)
The Kite Runner By Khaled Hosseini (It is also by the same author of Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini, and this book will make you look at the world a different way. And I'm pretty sure someone also recommended this book too)
So B. It (You probably read this but even though it's sad, you'll cherish each moment and page until the book ends)
Bloom By Elizabeth Scott (A fresh, honest, and heartfelt story of a first love)
The Luxe series (this book has love with a twist in action. You'll always be surprised at what happens in this book since it's in New York in 1899.)
Friend me by cathy hopkins (this is a great friendship and shows how you can overcome hard times with the help of friends ^^)
The Blue Bloods series by Melissa de la Cruz (has vampires and romance but isn't like Twilight)
Well I hope that Helps =)
Good Luck ^^|||well even though you say youre sick of vampires, you should try out some vampyres. lol. i LOVEEE the house of night series by p.c. cast and kristin cast. theyre

A young girl (fifteen or sixteen) is living in India with her parents. She is unhappy and wanting to go to England be like other kids. She's talking back to her mother in the marketplace and acting like an ungrateful brat. They fight and argue. Her mother sends her home and continues on the errand by herself. HOWEVER, minutes later the young girl supernaturally has a vision of her mother's death. A premonition which proved to be true. The family returns to England. The father is depressed and addicted to drugs (opium, maybe???) and the girl is sent to a boarding school. She arrives at the boarding school and she's weirded out because of her reception on the road. I think they run into a village or camp of gypsies or something. Anyway, at school she doesn't fit in and the kids pick on her. She's befriended by another person her age who is also an outcast. She essentially hates the school and hates her classmates. One day she finds a journal/diary...I believe in the woods or in the caves or some weird location not in the normal routine of the students...and she begins reading it. The contents shock her. The diary is of a young girl who has supernatural powers and tells how she travels between dimensions--reality and magical fantasy realms. She discovers that she can go as well. The magic is within her it seems. And she discovers that she can take others with her. She uses this power to make friends with her classmates. This whole group of girls now go back and forth between reality and fantasy worlds heedless of any possible dangers. There are dangers, it is risky. And they do break the rules. There are consequences.

Love that trilogy, always will.
I'm just sad that it will probably turn into the new Twilight since it is also being made into a movie.|||i personally haven't read anne rice's novel yet, but i loved a great and terrible beauty. the series was so much fun to read and i would think many would like to read it, if they're patient! the last book took me longer than it would normally take for me to read it because i had an ap exam to study for, but i could have read it soooo much faster if i didn't have the exam. i enjoyed it that much. but, why not bring in both books? if you like both, then maybe the others will like it too.
how would you spell the girl name sounding bray-uh?

Its very pretty.
I guess there is also:
Braeuh
Braiah
Brayah
Braya
I dont know, im just making them up, i prefer Breya.|||Breya is cute ^_^|||Sorry, can't really help with the spelling. But if I sounded it out right, all that comes to mind are the tar pits in California. You can look those up and see how that's spelled. :)
But how about Braya-it's spelled like it sounds.|||Brea. I don't know how that got to be a girl's name. In LA it means tar. Everything in the vicinity of the tar pits is called La Brea this or that --boulevard, avenue, boutique hotel. I guess as long as she never goes to Southern California or meets anyone who speaks Spanish it would be okay but in those situations a girl with that name would find herself the source of great hilarity. BTW I wouldn't mind being named Brea or La Brea myself. I was a total dinosaur freak when I was a kid and yearned to visit the tar pits the way other kids want to go to Disneyland. I would have proudly told anyone I met that I was named after the La Brea Tar Pits, one of the richest sources of fossils of extinct animals in the world. That just gave me a great idea for a story.

Someone told me that whenever you go through the checking points of the customs, your camera will be Brayed and easily be malfunction/spoilt.
Is this true?
And how would protect your camera?|||X-ray will not damage the camera. The huge magnets used for checked baggage could be an issue, but since it is always best to carry all your photo gear as carry on, I have never had to test that premise. My guess is that any film camera would be fine and DSLR's may be okay.
Why don't you call Canon or Nikon and ask. 800.NIKON-UX or 800.OK-CANON
Film is a different deal. It is best to have it hand inspected as you carry it on the plane. Exposed film is more susceptible to fogging than unexposed film. NEVER check film, always carry it on board with you.|||The x-rays and other scanning equipment used in airport checkouts is not strong enough to affect film or digital cameras, as an ex RAF Photographer and frequent overseas traveller I've taken both types through numerous security scanners.
The severe troubles our nation now finds itself in has been caused by the labour party's own incompetence and negligence ; so why is gordon brown braying about his so called remedies ? Frankly we have been conned long enough. He should clean out the present cache of untrustworthy MPs before we could trust the party again.. There is nothing of the Socialist in any of them now.|||Because he believes the voting public are gullible enough to believe him. Did you hear him yesterday on the news at tthe conference saying that he now pledges to crack down on yob? That one was pretty ripe sure enough. Labour have been telling us that for 13 years and haven't done anything about it not zilch!
Mostly Labour are up in the polls as the surveys are being done in mainly labour, staunchley supported areas. I don't pay a lot of attention to the news medias polls anyway but I do listen when I hear a lot of labour supporters in my area knocking labour for all they are worth. Some are so angry with Brown and the people in the cabinet they nearly spit when they talk. You don't have to say anything to them to get them started either. People have honestly had enough. They don't like the Tories or Libdems either and I'm beginning to think more and more we are going to have a hung parliament. Its like the other day I heard one of the local constituents labour party officers saying that getting the truth out of a labour or tory politician either one was like trying to, his words, "stick a wet noodle up a wild cats ****". I just thought how true that is but for any MP we have sitting in the house now, either house for that matter.
Vote any independent! Even a hung parliament will get the people represented for a change and maybe do some good for our country. Can't be any worse than it is now or what the tory's did when they were in govt. last.|||Yes & No comes to mind. Yes - he should clear out the untrustworthy MP's. No - Socialist ideals have not gone, but taken a battering and I think it is a reinterpretation of them in the modern world.
It is a common perception that Labour have messed up big time. But hang on...The UK is probably the only main country that has relied more on financial services sector than any other main EU country and would classify UK's situation as unique. With world economic events, mainly borne out of dodgy financial products creatively engineered by the big US commercial banks, it was inevitable that the UK was going to be a big casualty in the global financial storm. But I guess Gordon is praising himself for making unpopular decisions, e.g. stabilising the UK Bank sector or remaining in Afghanistan and yet still doing relatively well in the Polls.|||This is silly. I am certainly no fan of the New Labour Government but they did not cause the crisis and in fact, in my view have dealt with it sensibly.
The crisis was caused by irresponsible banks who probably should have been more tightly regulated but both Labour and Tory Governments share some blame for this (and, in fairness, deregulation is often a very positive policy).
They clearly made mistakes, as every Government does; the Tories over did the monetarism and took us into the ERM. I think this Government over spent, got in to some silly wars and have made a mess of education. But, the recession was caused by credit that was to cheap and too loose.|||I am no friend of Mr Brown or New Labour. The problem I have is that the only real alternative is an inexperienced mob whom New Labour most resemble.
Because I am fast approaching the 'old git' stage of life, I know the Conservatives are no better. Michael Portillo had to apologise for the last Tory governments vilification and stigmatisation of single mothers... yet this mob are up to exactly the same thing and are so bound up in their class prejudices that they can't even get their statistics right.
I'm joining Alice Cooper and voting for the 'Wild' party! :-)|||Because he understands the English character (he is from north of the borrder). We love to be shafted and, like Oliver, ask for more.|||If Gordon Brown didn't pat himself on the back who else would?
I mean those guys are hyper and angry plus they gotta lotta weight I mean Beefcake. How do they manage to put in a clean urine sample. Several of their team are out and yet they are still like Victor Bray on the Dragstrip now that's some jet fuel i wanna get my hands on.|||the vet|||Yay - agree with Roguey this time. It's no one player. It's like the Aussie cricket team. 22 guys spurred on by the idea that there are 22 guys nearly as good playing in the seconds. Wouldn't a team like Freo kill to get their hands on any of those seconds that turned up today. Taylor was magic and unsung. Look at the unsung second stringers like Mackie and any team would have them.
All we need now is Dale Thomas!!!
Shite we woz good in that second half!! Loved it.
EDIT: Disagree with ya Crypt - we need someone a bit more nimble to run the drinks for the seconds! :-)|||I wouldnt use the excuse that they are on 'special medicine' just coz they came out and played like the fantastic team that they are.
Geelong is the perfect example of a team that doesnt rely on just one or two key players to win a game. The whole side is awesome!!
...but I still wish the Doggies won!|||**They're a very strong team and have worked very hard to get where they are today. The only 'special medicine' that they've taken is a lot of hard work and determination.**|||Geelong are just too good, they don't need 'special medicine'. The Dogs did well in the first half, but aren't as fit as Geelong, so they couldn't keep up the intensity.|||Geelong are simply awesome we dont need anyu of your so called 'special medicine' thanks! We have too much skill, class and intensity!

In Libba Bray's book Rebel Angels her characters go to an art show and find a painting titled "a host of rebel angels" in the painting there are two angels in combat surrounded by a battle is this a real painting? if so were can i find it or see a picture of it?|||I've always wondered the same thing, and I've looked for it online too.

that's all i can think of, even though they're all dumb|||Ray although I like Bray|||All I can think of is BD or The Brain.....I like your first answer......|||B-Dub Yeah|||Bra|||Brad
Is Libba Bray coming out with a 4th "A Great And Terrible Beauty"? You know, a book that comes after "The Sweet Far Thing". If she is what is she going to call it, and when is it coming out?|||the series is a TRILOGY so, no, I don't think she's coming out with a fourth book...she HAS written another book, however, bovine madness or something like that...just search her name...it should be coming out soon...completely different from the gemma doyle series though|||:O I don't know but that would be good news. She ended things pretty firmly in the sweet far thing, so I wouldn't be so sure...but they are making a movie for a great and terrible beauty :O. It's coming out sometimes in 2010 :)|||I don't think she is planning on making another book. That's why she left off with Gemma dreaming of Katrick, and looking into the morning. Normally writers finsh by telling wrapping up the characters final thoughts.
What is this book about?|||It's an interesting sci-fi teen book about a girl named Ondine and her friend Morgan who meet this odd boy named Nix who can tell when people are going to die. Ondine and Morgan are special too, and the three of them find out who they really are, where they came from and what special abilities that they all have.
He sings bass or baritone. He was in the chorus of the New Orleans Opera during the 1980s. His brother was living in Los Angeles during that time. He was/is an actor. Did a few commercials. He was born in Canada.|||Get in touch with the New Orleans opera and ask them for a forwarding address. That is the starting location. I think this endeavor is going to cost you some money though!
I'm just another aspiring actress out her, and I was wondering where the casting calls are going to be held for Libba Bray's A Great and Terrible Beauty, or if anyone knows someone I can get connected with for the movie that would be great!|||I don't know when they are--heck, Libba Freakin' BRAY doesn't know when they are. She's amazing at keeping us posted on her LiveJournal, http://libba-bray.livejournal.com She posts all info there.
I agree with the person above me, you need an agent and need to be part of an agency to even have a remote chance at it. Good luck with your acting, though.|||You don't have casting calls for just another person. What you need honey, is a really good acting agency represting you. I don't know if you already do, but if you don't, google agencies in your area. Also check if they are SAG aprooved. The aprooved list will also help you get closer to being in A Great and Terrible Beauty.
Good Luck in Your Acting!!!!|||Hot damn!
I didn't know that book is being turned into a movie!!
I've read "A Great and Terrible Beauty" and "Rebel Angels" by Libba Bray and loved them both. Can anyone recommend me some books that are kind of like those two?|||Anything by Nicholas Sparks.
Awesome author.
Best book is called "The Guardian"|||I looked up your books at bn.com, seems like you like sc-fi/fantasy with a bit of love in the mix. Try this series The banned and the banished by James Clemens. Great Great Great books!!!!!|||Nicholas Sparks
Aimee Friedman
Hailey Abbott
Simon's pulse books ( romantic comedy )
Rachel Hawthorne
SARAH DESSEN - the truth about forever & this lullaby ( highly recommend those books )
Chicken Soup|||sorry, i am not familiar with that author. I lean towards mysteries - anything by John LeCarre, Janet Evanovich (very funny) - just read Jacquot and the waterman by Martin O'Brien - Kurt Vonnegut is a favorite but not everybody's latte|||A LONG WAY DOWN (ANYTHING BY NICK HORNBY IS AWSOME)
FRIDA
LOVELY BONES
A MAP OF THE WORLD|||that was exactly what i was going to say...
Nicholas Sparks is a wonderful author.|||Sophie's World|||Harry Potter|||I think Scar Tissue by Anthony Keidis is a great book! Though you may not have ever listened to his music (Red Hot Chili Peppers) the book is very moving and interesting. From his addiction to drugs, sex and so much more, the book is just all around a great read!!!|||Fabulosity by Kimora Lee Simmons. It has some very empowering tips for us ladies!|||If you like sci-fi or fantasy or even just want a change from the norm try the Dresden Files, 6 book series and very enjoyable, not my usual read but I couldn't put the firt 2 down and am waiting to get the other 4. Author is Jim Butcher|||Tuesdays with Morrie not sure who the author is|||I love anything by Anne McCaffrey.
Jim Butcher is good.
Laurel K. Hamilton is good too, she writes vampire hunter books.
Just read anything.|||The Bible|||you should read chought in da mix dat book is of da hook|||Read the Bible.|||If you love books by meg cabot/Jk Rowling and dan brown you will love the noughts and crosses seires by malorie blackman. Its a romantic story but includes important teen and social issues. Its a fantastic must read seires.
Ahhhh! i need to talk about it (as none of my friends read it grrr) How did u feel about Karitik's death? Didn't Gemma and Karitik totally do it in the cave/dream? How did u react to Felicity and Pippa?|||O M G
I was completey shocked at Karitiks death!!
It drove me insane!!
Idk if they did!! I was really hoping they did since their already so close!!
Honestly, You last question , It didnt really surprise me.=]
Percy Harvin at Green Bray
Lance Moore vs. Atlanta
Johnny Knox vs. Cleveland
Mike Sims-Walker at Tennessee (Definitely starting him)
Kevin Walter at Buffalo
I can pick three...
I was kind of leaning towards Lance Moore, Mike Sims-Walker and Johnny Knox. But if Andre Johnson doesn't play next week this could be big for Kevin Walter. I'd love to start Percy Harvin but it's kind of looking like Fave is looking to Sidney Rice a lot more now.|||Man! you need to see if miles austin is available!|||From what i have seen Johnson will play next week, so Walter prob isnt that great of a play. I say go with the 3 you picked i think it is probably the best.|||I would go for Moore, Knox or Walter, and Sims Walker
Bray Wanderers A.F.C.|||What place is Earthquakes in their Conference?
hahahahahahahahaha yea I thought so.|||DALE TU CUERPO ALEGRIA Y COSA BUENA|||chivas would beat everyone bray would beat san jose eathquakes but lose to chivas and san jose eatquakes would lose to both and mexico|||Chivas DUH!|||If the Earthquakes play against Athlone Town A.F.C. who will win?|||lol @ carlos
whos your favourite character in the book? Gemma? miss moore? or Kartik?|||I like Gemma. She relates to me a lot. Libba Bray's characters are so real and pure, they feel like people I know. Unlike Twilight where Meyer paints an unrealistic portrait of an Edward character who will never exist because it's impossible to have flawless imperfections. But Gemma is an amazing girl who doesn't have cliched actions what so ever. By the end of the third book, she has the strength to go on over a character's (no name) death. Meyer probably would have written that Gemma committed suicide because she simply couldn't live without such and such character and that her death was so beautiful that people shed beautiful tears.|||Katrik is my fav character cause he's sweet. Then gemma.|||kartik
tell why|||Let's see... Murray is 1st in the sec in passing efficiency, 2nd in passing per game, and 2nd in total offense. He has 28 TD's to Bray's 16. Now I know Bray missed a few games but at this point, I think it's safe to say Murray is clearly the better QB.|||Right now I would say Murray because he has the most experience.....
I was just wondering if I should buy it? Is it a good book?
Here are books that I enjoyed:
http://www.goodreads.com/review/list/156鈥?/a>|||I thought it was wonderful! Sorry, but your goodreads profile is private, and I don't feel comfortable adding you as a friend. :) I actually wasn't a huge fan of fiction before I read these, if that tells you anything. It also incorporates Victorian Era history, so it's not all fantasy. I'd suggest reading it, if you in for trying something new. :)|||Yes, it's a very interesting trilogy. It takes place during the Victorian age, initially in India and later in England. The story is about a teenager named Gemma, her best friends at an all-girl's boarding school, and a mysterious/handsome Indian boy named Kartik. It's a supernatural historical novel with some adventure, suspense, mystery, and romance. Book 2 of the trilogy is called REBEL ANGELS, followed by THE SWEET FAR THING.
There's also a movie in the works, as far as I know, but no cast yet.|||Yes it was very good.
Unfortunately, my sister and I both agreed that it was the best of the series, so be prepared for somewhat of a let down if you want to find out what happens to all the characters.
I recommend your reading it.|||Yes, it is a very good book, if you like that sort of thing. It's a trilogy, too, and the second and third books are very good as well.|||oh my god don't you luv the private series?! i luved them is the privilege book good? oh i think you should try reading the pretty little liars series they are so juicy and good|||yes
it's a really good book
i luv it
and the title says everything
its good and at the same time its bad|||YES! It is awesome!!!! lol
Can anyone help me convert olsen p of 16.5 to bray-1p|||Your Bray P is either 30ppm or 0-5ppm.
The correct answer depends on your soil's pH. Let me explain:
Olsen P is an alkaline extraction. Bray P is an acid extraction. You need to know if you have an alkaline or acid soil. If you are alkaline, there should be no need to convert as the Olsen P should be accurate. If you have an acid soil, you may want to re-run soil analysis with Bray P.
I work with alkaline soils, and I have experienced grower's panic calls because the soil test P comes back at 3ppm and they just spent $300 on phosphate!! After finding that its Bray P, I tell them to relax and tell them to re-run with a lab that does Olsen P. It then comes back around 20ppm and everybody is happy and cheerful.
Check out this presentation from Iowa State. P.11 has some graphs that can help you in a conversion. You'll see why the pH of your soil matters in your conversion. http://www.agronext.iastate.edu/soilfert鈥?/a>
does anyone know if Libba Bray is coming out with a new book since her last, The Sweet Far Thing..?|||I love Libba, and her books. The Gemma Doyle Trilogy is done, she's ***************** (spoiler) and it's over. Done. Complete. However you phrase it, it means she's not making any more.
However, she's CURRENTLY writing a book called Going Bovine. It's about a boy with mad Cow Disease, and he and his friend or something are going on a road trip... I don't know the whole plot, but I think I heard it supposed to come out Fall 2009.
They ARE making a movie of at least AGATB, and it's supposed to come out in 2010 sometime (such a long wait) and she's magificent at keeping us posted and on top of things on her Livejournal, http://libba-bray.livejournal.com/|||no! I am sooo dissapointed! The series is only made up of three books! sucks huh?|||i read her books and i love them. i don't think so but i hope she does|||ahhh..no|||Nope thats the last one from the Gemma Doyle Trilogy =[|||not really what is it?|||not sure..i don't know if the rumors are true or not..but people say there even making a movie on the books..not sure?
1. Is she planning at all what so ever even considering making a 4th book to her gemma doyle trilogy? ex: great and terrible beauty, Rebel angels and The sweet far thing
2. Does she have a fan mail address or a writing address or email address or anyway to contact other then her lj. i have tons of questions.
3. Who else loved these books and cried when "he" died!?!?! that was like the ultimate sacrifice!|||For now, no The sweet far thing was the ending to the trilogy and she left it with a loop hole so that you can imagine what happens after that. she will not give out a fan mail address or email address and no one knows why but i dont think i would give mine out either... Sorry!! and This book was amazing easily one of my favorites and one of the best ive read! Hands down amazing! I was in tears even at my dinner table after reading it, and in school the story we read had someone die and i nearly burst into tears thinking about kartiks death!!|||i just finished reading the 3rd book and i still cant stop crying! i hate the fact that Kartik dies and i sorta guess i understand why that happened but the book left me wanting more so i hope that she makes a 4Th book to the gemma Doyle series! Report Abuse
|||try going to libbabray.com
1. i really hope she does, it said it was the finale but, maybe she'll wirte a fourth. perhaps bring Kartik back and write about her life in NY. ( im sorry if im not helping much,lol)
2. im sorry but, idk. try google.com and type in your ?, or go to libbabray.com ot even the publisher website
3. i do!!! i love the books!! and i cried too, it was so heartbreaking, they were perfect for eachother, and they finally got together he "died".

I read Betwixt by Tara Bray Smith a while ago and thought it was really good. I heard that she was making a sequel that is coming out in 2010, but was wondering if anyone knows the exact date?|||No, I don't, unfortunately...
I'm still in the middle part, but it's great to hear that there will be a sequel! The book has really grown on me. I didn't think much of it at first coz the beginning was kinda slow and vague. I'm glad I stuck with it though! Now I can hardly put it down. :)
Anyway, (back to your question) just keep checking in on her official website. I'm sure she'll post more details later on. :)

Wuthering High - Cara Lockwood
the first is tres sexy and the second was fantastique|||Have you ever read The Mists of Avalon by Marion Zimmer Bradley?|||look for the book "Gossamer" by Lois Lowry.
Its kindof like a half and half book with two stories at once. Its fantasy and a mature strong story on the other.
its phenominal check it out.
I read Advanced Paternal Age, How old is too old? By Isabelle Bray et.al on the internet. Its a paper concerned about the health risks of late childbearing including birth defects cancer and schizophrenia in the offspring.|||This is very debatable, especially in the present day with all the talk of IVF treatment for older women. It used to be that a woman who was 30 and having her first baby, would have 'Elderly Primagravida' written on her notes. Elderly at 30!! Now many women are delaying starting a family until well into their 30s and even waiting until 40. Nature looks after a woman by ceasing egg production, but of course men can continue fathering children for what seems like forever and I think this is where the risks that you're speaking of can arise. I personally wouldn't have welcomed a pregnancy after I was 35; pregnancy makes lots of demands upon the body, then there's the actual birth, followed by nights of broken sleep and the sheer amount of energy expended in bringing up a child. This is all followed by the traumas of the teenage years, which I'm sure must be more difficult to cope with once you're past 50.|||i say 30|||i think 40 is the limit. by that time your body is getting ready to go threw menopause and that is enough of a change.|||44? I am 29 and want more kids. i have one. I guess i should of started sooner if they say 30. I know alot of people having them in late 30's and 40's|||As long as you are capable of looking after them, then any age, i don't see what the problem is, all a child needs is a loving, caring family.|||I think 40 should be the absolute limit, I was 23 and 25 when I had my children and feel that this was a nice age as I wasn't too old as they were growing up.|||Not sure. I had my children at 32 and 35 I had no problems at all. I stopped at 35 because all of the risks scared me.|||depends on how healthy and fit you are. a friend of mine is super healthy and had a healthy baby at 38. But i read somewhere that 24 to 28 are the best years for child bearing, and coincidently, i had my first child at 24 and my second at 28.|||Who's really to say. It's all about each individuals views. Some women think that women who have their babies in their early 20s are having them too young and not giving the women enough time to establish a career, while other women feel women who have them later in life put their careers ahead of a family. I think when a women is emotionally ready to take on the task is when she should have her children. LOVE and a good home are really all that's important in raising children.|||i think 40 but even then i think this is a little on the older side. you wan tot make sure that you are healthy enough to take care of these children.|||I'm 34 and I have an 18 month old and I'm 4 months pregnant. Part of me wishes I would have had them sooner so that I would be younger while they are growing up, and part of me is glad it didn't happen until now. I'm more emotionally ready than I would have been 10 years ago. It all depends on the individual person. I won't be having any more though because of possible risks.|||i would say 40s as it isn't fair on the child if the Parent is for example 50, when the child is 20 the parent will be 70. xx|||I'm nearly 35 and having my first. I would have had a baby earlier but infertility made it impossible.
I'm fine health wise - I'm a trained dancer and healthier and slimmer than most 21 year olds. I have had an uncomplicated pregnancy and tested low risk for Downs Syndrome and other health problems in my baby.
And I fully intend to have at least one more baby in the next few years - I'll probably be about 37 or 38 when I have the next one.
My mum had me at 36 (my dad was 52). I sure as hell don't have "cancer, birth defects or schizophrenia"! She had my brother at 41 (my dad was 58!) again, no problems at all, easy births and pregnancy, didn't even get morning sickness with ether of us.
My grandmother had her kids at 36, 38 and 40 in the days before advanced medical technology. Three healthy pregnancies and trouble free births, three big healthy babies with no problems.
Noone in the family has schizophrenia or any other birth defect!!!!
So I really feel a bit resentful when people say these things to be honest. Its not always possible or a good idea to have kids in your 20s.|||when your body says you cant have anymore. if you are still able to have children at sixty then why not! there are some active sixty year old like peggy and jone collin.and some of these people are much more able to look after and love children then us younger ones. just take a look at our grandparents and the amount of kids and grandkinds they are letf to look after and they still have energy to cook and clean and do other stuff in between.|||i think around 35-40 after that its time for grandchildren and being able to pass them back at the end of the day. my mother in law is 45 she has a little girl of 7mths and just found out shes pregnant again i think its stupid concidering she dont evan want this 1 and can just about look after the other.|||I think that younger is better, definetely under 40. My boyfriend is 21 years old and his dad is over 70 and he hates it. He gets alot of anxiety because he thinks he has to achieve so much when he's young so his dad can be there for it. Being an older parent makes it very hard to bond with your children and especially to know what they are going through because the world changes so quickly and what they went through as a kid will not be the same as when their son or daughter is growing up.

If you didn't watch the Academy Awards, the film version of the book was nominated several times, including for best picture. Though it is at its root a tragic love story, it should not be written off as such. I myself usually loathe romance novels, but Atonement is filled with complex and unforgettable characters whose fates serve as a reminder that humanity is inexorably intertwined. The conflict of the plot stems from a misunderstanding by one of the main characters, Briony Tallis, of the love between her sister Cecilia, and the charming and intelligent son of their maid, Robbie Turner. Throughout the course of the novel, Briony realizes that the actions which resulted from her misunderstanding damaged the lives of the two lovers forever, and through war and passion, tragedy and joy, Briony discovers what it truly means to atone for her mistakes, and in doing so immortalizes the lovers in a way that life alone could never do.|||Madeleine L'Engle:

John Beachem:
Storms of Vengeance is John's first novel and I've been told that it is part of a series of 8 to 10 books. There is a murder mystery to be solved. Who did it and why? There is a mythical Lorradda Stone to locate. There are three parallel stories as we follow the actions of three different groups of people. There are also some ogres, two elves, several sorcerers, a troll, and one very impressive river monster. The book ends with a cliff hanger. One reason that young people gave for liking Harry Potter was the detail in the stories. They will find plenty of detail here as well. The title of the second book in the series will be The Hunter and the Marked.
David Eddings:
There are three stories in Volume I of The Belgariad: Pawn of Prophecy, Queen of Sorcery, and Magician's Gambit. Volume II of The Belgariad has two stories: Castle of Wizardry and Enchanters' End Gambit. If you are looking for grand adventure and plenty of detail it is here. Some may object to the slow progression and limited action of this tale. A sorcerer and his daughter, a sorceress, have gathered together a group of individuals to fight evil. It seems that the particular make-up for this group is necessary based upon an ancient prophecy. The group includes: the Nimble Thief, the Man with Two Lives, the Blind Man, the Dreadful Bear, the Knight Protector, the Horse Lord, the Bowman, the Queen of the World, and the Mother of the Race that Died. A young boy named Garion, who was raised by his Aunt Pol, is caught up in all of this, though he doesn't know why. But then, is she really his Aunt? There is so much detail that I have not as yet confirmed there are no mistakes in the mapping of the story. I thoroughly enjoyed The Belgariad and look forward to reading the sequel, The Mallorean.

WOULD PROBABLY NEVER CONSIDER SOME OF THESE JUST WONDERING
Colessa (Co-less-uh)
Hilarity (Hill-air-it-tee)
Braelyn (Bray-lin)
Cubby (Cub-bee)
Evaletta (E-vuh-let-tuh)
Asher (Ash-ur)
Poem (Po-em)
Tria (Tree-uh)
Would u ever consider some of these names or they just too weird?
Most are made up but some are actual names.|||Braelyn is somewhat acceptable. I like Asher. Poem is sort of ok. I would consider Asher. I really like the name Ashmal too.|||Colessa [it's not my style but I wouldn't be weirded out by a person with that name. It's kind acute actually]
Hilarity [God NO! Hilary is bad enough, Hilarity sounds like someone misspelled hilarious]
Braelyn [I could definitely use tha!]
Cubby [ok this reminds me of either a taxi driver or a puppy. so no.]
Evaletta [sounds just a tad too made up and is not my style but it could work for someone]
Asher [yes I actually know that name and would use it 100%]
Poem [weirdly enough this is a g.p. name that I could use for a girl]
Tria [sounds like a short form of some name so I wouldn't use it as it is. Plus sounds a bit too girly]|||I'm assuming you;re not expecting.
Colessa (Co-less-uh): It's not horrible, I guess. But I don't really like it.
Hilarity (Hill-air-it-tee): It wouldn't be that bad, since it sounds like Hillary, but please never name a child this if you have one :). They would get teased because it's the noun of the word hilarious.
Braelyn (Bray-lin): Pretty nice name.
Cubby (Cub-bee): Again would be teased. Cubby house, a bear cub, or chubby Cubby.
Evaletta (E-vuh-let-tuh): I'd prefer just Eva. Evaletta sounds liek abn older person name.
Asher (Ash-ur): So long as it's for a boy, I quite like this name.
Poem (Po-em): I guess it could be a virtuous-type name. Pretty but could get teased too
Tria (Tree-uh):SOunds too much like trio or tree, but at least it sort of sounds like a name.
I would consider Asher and amybe Braelyn. Asher is not that unusual. Some of them are a bit too much though :). But good job in making names up :)|||Colessa- Not Bad
Hilarity- Um....no! Try Clarity or Trinity
Braelyn- Love It!
Cubby- Please Don't
Evaletta- Too old fashioned!
Asher- I've heard worst
Poem-I actually like it!
Tria-eeeh!
I would consider Braelyn but spelt Brailyn or Braylinn
My little cousin's name is Braylon, it's a boy! And I've met a little girl named Braelyn|||Colessa, no.
Hilarity - are you joking? never.
Braelyn... nah, but I'm sure there's people called that out there.
Cubby. lol. no.
Evaletta, never.
Asher... I like it.
Poem - what the hell? never.
Tria, nope.|||Braelyn and Asher are fine, Tria is okay, the rest, bleck. Especially Hilarity, which is tooooo funny *get it?*|||They're all interesting.|||The first and second name are adorible and the very last one is cute|||i would consider BRAELYN... best of the bunch
I'm desperate for another series similar to twilight! not necessarily about vampires or werewolves, but i love stephenie meyer's writing style and the chemistry and romance between edward and bella. so far, i'm looking into a great and terrible beauty by libba bray and shamer's daughter by lene kaaberbol. anyone read these? also, what other series or books would a twilight fan enjoy? thanks in advance!|||Have you read The Host yet?

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;鈥?/a>|||Good luck finding something as original as Twilight.|||i think the city of ember is like it. u could try that. hope i help!
It's just so sick. Some of my friends at school say it's hilarious and bray with laughter when watching. It just makes me feel like throwing up most of the time though.
They say that it's just funny.
But why? How?
Does anyone agree with me?|||There are many kinds of humor:
Highbrow-upscale,dry thinking person's humor
Middlebrow-regular guy humor
Lowbrow-risque,ribald,doofus and mostly offensive fratboy humor.
Family Guy quite definitely falls into the third category and as your reaction to it demonstrates, it is indeed not for everybody. I watch it myself,and even I have to turn my head in disgust when they clearly go beyond the pale. I like Family Guy NOT for the gross factor,but for the alternately clever/doofus humor,the send-ups/parodies and the signature flashback "Like the time I..." jokes. On that level, it's a great show, And sometimes you just want to watch some good silly comedy just to get some relief from all the crap that's happening these days. And even silly comedy can make serious points about real life issues ala Scrubs. In short they have heart. On shows like Family Guy, that heart isn't readily evident, so you've gotta kind of DIG for it. So if you can acknowledge all that and,hard as it is,overlook the gross and naughty bits, perhaps you'll be able to enjoy it a little more. Like I said,lowbrow humor is not for everyone,but even it has a purpose.|||Some people just do not like it.
It is usually dry and sarcastic, and I agree that some of it is like "man they took it to far" but sometimes its just funny, it all depends on your tastes.
Approach the show knowing its a joke, and the writers wrote it to be a joke and relax and watch it, if you do not then thats fine, a lot of people don't, and a lot of people do.|||As it's an adult comedy,maybe you aren't mature enough to understand the sarcasm,nuances,and political undertones.
Do you realise,Mayor Adam West,is actually voiced by Adam West,who was 'Batman' in the 1960s series,and is taking the p*ss out of himself!?
When you have lived life a bit more,maybe you'll find it as funny,as this 48 year old Welshman does!|||Sorry, but if you have to ask why it's funny then you will never understand. It's adult absurdest humor and not meant for everyone. You might say prudes need not try to watch it because they are sure to be shocked.
Family Guy is a love it or hate it show and the one thing that is for sure is that it is not meant for children.|||I can't work it out either.... I watched one were the wee boy wanted to be sexually abused by his father and the father didn't want to do it so he paid someone to sneak into the wee boys room at night and pretend to be him.... The wee boy went off to band camp happy his dad had sexually abused..|||Sorry, but I love it. You must be too young to understand it. The satire of it all. I watch it almost every day. My Mom watches it, my nephews watch it. We all love it. When we are all together we talk about it and laugh until we can't breath.|||i love it because of its striking relatability with my family. its like, if you combine family guy and everybody loves raymond, you get my family.|||No no no no no no noooooooooooooooo. that show is awesome! everyone i know who are my friends love it! from my 10 year old friend to my 14 year old friends. that show is awesome!|||its funny cause it makes fun of other movies?shows
and they have there own plot so its very creative
look if you don't like it good for you but alot of other people do|||Family guy has what some people call a "Crued" sense of humour. You personally have to enjoy that humour, in order to like the show.|||It's as funny as Ricky Chaves|||you have to have a sick and warped sense of humour, like me. i love family guy.|||Yes its sick.
That's mostly why it's an adult show.
I like it though :]
They do adult things though.|||I hear you dude!
Its Bull man really don't find it funny!
And whats up with the one eyed person now thats just scary!!
Lolz
X|||Buttscratcher!|||Family Guy is great!!!|||maybe you should try and explain why you don't find it funny!!
I think you're in the minority....|||oops, was gonna suggest Southpark, buuuuuut... maybe not|||Satire comedy. Seems like a kids show but it isn't.|||Oh havent you heard. it was my understanding that everyone had heard.
A well a bird bird bird bird birds the word.|||i agree most of the things are very harmful and hurtful.
but sometimes its funny.
but i can understand why you dont think its funny,
it prolly offended you
