I just tried to make brownies but when i checked on them after 25 minutes, they were hard on the ourside but uncooked on the outside. I realized that i left the knob on broil. How can i fix them?

My girlfriend says "I feel like I jumped in too quickly"?

Giving her some space does show her that you care, it cannot be easy so really well done. I would send her an email or sms or something of the sort, every now again again just letting her know, that she was in my thoughts today, or something like if she needs to chat to remember you are there for her, try and keep it causal but not to causal, hope this helps. By the way sounds like you have an awesome mom, who has her head screwed on right, I think she hit the nail on the head.

Can Political Science majors become journalist/writers?

I am currently a Poli Sci, Psychology major with a minor in Biology. I am considering many career paths such as neuroscience, journalism, law-school, med-school and business. I am committed to grad-school to obtain one of the following: MS, MA, MBA, J.D., Ph.D or M.D. I almost went to Northwestern University right out of high school but went elsewhere, however I was thinking of going to NU Medill graduate school of journalism.

Can i get a student loan to attend graduate school abroad?

I'm torn between getting my masters MSc domestically ( in the USA ) or abroad ( in the UK). I would have to get a student loan to afford this as I have just graduated with my BSc and have had little time to save. I graduated from undergrad with only needing to borrow $3500 for my last semester so I dont really have any loans currently. I started researching the process of getting a student loan to study abroad and found that it appears very limiting. If I choose to go to the UK for grad school ( which would be awesome) I have to prove that I have the funds beforehand. Thus, Is it possible to borrow $40,000 in student loans for tuition and living expenses to study abroad for a year?

According to these Bible verses, could ghosts exist?

The word "spirit" has two different meanings. One is a ghost that some people think come from a person who has died. The Holy Bible spirit is God's holy spirit that lives inside of us that guides us through life. Your God's spirit is the one who tells you right from wrong. Your God's spirit leads you to read the Holy Bible. Leads you to receive Jesus as the son of God. Leads you to be baptized.

We are great friends with our neighbors, but are kids don't always get along. What should we do?

My child is 10 and our very good friends have an 8 yr old. At times they get along well, mainly when it's just the 2 of them. My child's issues can be hogging his turn and being bossy and when other kids are there, he may leave him out. The other child's issues are that he is controlling, threatens to leave, takes away his stuff, or tells to get them in trouble. Both kids take their turn instigating. His parent's suggest if the other children are bullying him, then he should hit them. This solution doesn't usually match the situation. When he tattles on the neighborhood kids so much they don't want him around. It's so frustrating because we try to let the kids work it out themselves, and it's just not helping. Also, it's putting stress on the relationship we have with our very good friends.

Should I stay friends with her?

Does a Golden key membership mean anything?

I'm currently in college and I'm actually part of my school's honors program with a 3.92 gpa(not honor society or honor club or whatever.. legit honors program with different classes and all that) and I'm just wondering if this is enough or should I join that "Golden Key" thing. I got an email inviting me to join but it's $80. Is it even worth it to join it? will it look better for grad school? does it help at all with scholarships? is it really legit?.. thanks

What are the prickly things on eel and are they safe to eat?

I really love broiled eel over some white rice, but I've been wondering lately, what exactly are those spiky things that kind of hurt your tongue? They're not a big deal and it's usually too annoying to cut them out so I just eat them.. What exactly is it and is it indeed safe to eat?

Mooch of a sister in law to be and how to avoid her?

I'm a really laid back person, even if I don't like someone I try my darndest to get along with them. I've been trying to get along with my sister in law as long as I've been dating my fiance (9 years this July), and we're never going to get along lol. The simple fact is, the chick is OVERLY opinionated to the point where she's rude to other people about it and it embarrasses me, leaves $1 tips, tries to get any free thing she can, tacky, impolite, tries to ask MY mom not hers, if she'll pay for stuff for her (she's 30 freaking years old and has a good job there's no excuse), and she also tries to mooch off me to the point where my friends have got mad at her. She is bossy beyond belief as well and has to have things her way or else she'll tell her mom on me (I'm not kidding) and then her mom tells my fiance and I have to hear about it. That and I have my wedding plans all set and she CONSTANTLY tries to change them so they're more her taste. For example I had my cake all picked out, she says "Well I think we should go with this flavor actually". Drives me up the freaking wall. She's honestly not a bad person and I don't wish any harm on her, but I just can't stand the above qualities about her and that's just how she is. She keeps asking to get together and I know she'll just want me to buy stuff for her or mooch, etc...I want to just avoid her how do I do this without being too obvious? I don't want to hurt her feelings but seriously I'm miserable every time her and I go out (just the two of us) and give up. Help?

Is this a good physics college plan?

I am going to be a senior in high school this upcoming school year. I am leaning toward majoring in physics in college. I would like to work with fiber optics, so would this be the best undergrad major for me to pursue? I know it will be tough, but i really enjoy physics and math. What are some good physics schools that might specialize in optics? Is it common to get an undergrad degree in physics and go to grad school for a more specialized training in optics? Also, by the time I graduate will there be a good amount of job openings dealing with fiber optics? Also, my college of choice right now would be penn state because I live in pennsylvania, and it seems like a great school.

Friend's freakiest ghost encounter...too bad he didn't record but I'm still scared?

I was on the computer late at night/early in morning (2 or 3am) when the battery operated toys started working. The lights flashed and the music on them played. I turned around and a little girl was playing on the floor. I said "why are you not in bed?" then i realized my son was at grandmas. the girl just smiled and disappeared. I have more.

Do you think I should end this friendship?

Maybe she just likes a little attention sometimes. I wouldn't really stop being her friend though. Trust me, I have friends like that as well. It gets so annoying when a friend of mine acts like a spoiled brat who throws a fit when she doesn't get her way. Instead of not being her friend, still be her friend but maybe don't spend so much time with her? If she annoys you, don't be close friends with her but still be there for her whenever you can. Hope this helps. :)

Anyone with experience with IBR and ICR student loan repayment plans?

honestly any other option would be better than the ibr/icr plans! you can get a deferment or forbearance, or there could be other options to lower your payments depending on your servicer. on the income based plan you might qualify for a zero dollar monthly payment or other lower payment options. and if the laon isn't paid off within 25 years it gets forgiven... so it sounds like a dream come true... but you need to qualify every year. if at some point you don't qualify you get thrown back onto the standart repayment... and all that interest that you didn't pay will be added on to principle. so if you ever plan on getting a better job within the next 25 years... avoid this option at all costs or that 300 dollar payment can easily turn into a 3000 dollar payment.

What's this anime?!?!?!?

All i can remember it was about this school who summon these spirits with music and the two main characters, one was a male who was an Amazing singer but used an keyboard instead and the other i think was a red haired girl who was a Spirit who he sang to on a full moon and they make a contract or something like that. I can remember there was some romance and the Spirit girl was a bossy type who the male kind of obeyed like in torodora hope this help and please answer x

Are Virgo Moon girls usually really rude?

Since virgo is so mental and critical they sometimes crack these horrible jokes just because the thought popped in their heads. I know 6 of them. 2 of them are family members. They are whiny and cruel when they are hungry or their body is deprived in some way since Virgo is an earth sign, when the body is hurt it makes them feel very threatened, like their existence is threatened, so their critical tongues get activated and its not very pretty. They all have good hygiene. I am VERY blunt and really rude when I'm suffering and I have Virgo moon. I don't credit it all to my Virgo moon tho. I have a really strong mars and mercury in aquarius, and aquarius and mars love to stir things up and say whatever they want. So I don't think its all a Virgo moon thing. Normally Virgo is very dutiful, modest, and polished, the boring puritanical nun or housewife type. I think the problem with those girls is they are probably very critical of themselves and can't accept or respect themselves, Sorry you've encountered such sorry Virgo moons, we're not all like that :)

Is it possible for a girl (who is my best friend) who only likes me as a friend to fall for me later on?

What to do about lazy parents?

my mom is 45, has never held a job in her life... now she's in grad school where she's been for 5 years and she hasn't done any work (just keeps changing universities because all her supervisors were ~bad~ --no they paid her and expected work) and keeps racking up debts. she constantly whines about how she's so ~sick~ or how hard it is to take care of my brother who has aspergers. every time i want to tell her how pathetic this lifestyle is she just throws a tantrum. i am afraid i'll be like her when i grow up.

Especially for Biology (for which math is important) your quant score is too low. The math on the GRE is considered extremely easy and for a science major you should be scoring in the mid 700s.

Electric oven stopped working?

My Amana Convection oven stopped working. I don't know why. The screen still shows the time; all of the clock and timer buttons work, but the actual cooking ones don't (bake,broil, convection bake, clean, etc).

How to deal with insubordination at school?

Embarrass him in front of everyone. He sounds really immature. Or you can just deal with it and try your hardest not to react to everything he does and just ignore him.

Coronation Street: Is there anyone else who can't stand Stella?

I think she's too needy, and when Steve was interviewing her, it was more like Stella was interviewing Steve. She's a damn annoying character, and when Becky is back, I hope Becky attacks needy, in your face Stella like she threatened Tracy.. That Stella would deserve it! She's too needy and bossy and she comes in and bosses Steve round in his own home.. Is there anyone else who dislikes Stella??

Self-clean oven we not have how so that I hop makeself-clean oven free ?

No, you will not be able to make a regular oven into a self cleaning oven.

You will have to purchase a self clean oven.

How do i deal with my friend who is kind of bossy and self centerd?

this is an interesting case. i use to know some one just like that. sounds like shes the personification of narcissism. if you dont want to hurt her feelings but let her know shes being a pain will be tricky but not impossible. since i had the same problem i'll tell you what i did. i told her that some one was talking about her being self absorbed because she talks about herself alot. of course she was like no way who said? i replyed by saying im not sure who said it first but alot of others know. i overheard some one talking about you. i felt that it was best for you to know. in a calming way i quickly fallowed up not giving her the chances to have any doubt. i told her you do mention your bf alot and you do talk about how beautiful you are, but dont get me wrong you do look great( gave her some confidants so she wont think im picking on her) however maybe others think that because you talk about it to much. perhaps their even jealous, if i were you i slim down the talking about that often cause you know how people like to gossip about everything and i hate to see other picking on you just because they want a laugh. shes was like oh i see. with that she'll think about how much she has mentioned herself. after that i quickly told her i had to go and i'll see you at lunch. after that she kinda laid off the " oh i did this today and oh and my bf... alot of times when people who act like that are really depressed about something and just need some one to feel in the hole in my opinion. this is a nice way but could back fire if you cannot control the entire situation. if you get to nervous while trying to give her a helpful lie she will know and she will question herself if its you who's talking about her then all shells will break loose. if that doesn't work and she keeps doing the samthing weeks on. just tell her the truth that she being a bore. but do it nicely, one on one with her. that way she wont be embarrassed in a crowd of people cause im sure she'll try and turn the tables and make you look like a fool. well i wish you luck. if nothing works and you guys end up not being friends at least you did all you could to save the friendship between you two. just by asking this question on yahoo.com is good cause your wanting to improve your relationship. good luck.

Does this girl like me?

If I were you, I would wait a while until you make assumptions. There is a possibility that she likes you, or just wants to be friends with you. If she says she wants to hang out with you, or that she misses you, or something of that sort, she probably likes you! It definitely looks good. If you don't feel like waiting, ask her out! She will most likely consider it before rejecting you.

What should i do about my girlfriend?

It is almost me and my girlfriends 2 year anniversary. we just arnt getting along! shes bossy, and constantly yells at me! I can never sit down. We just got a puppy a month ago, at that point, we were closer than ever! At first like any baby, it needed attention, i got jelous! but i decided, it was stupid and i should be happy! it will bring us closer, now shes all like all you care about is the dog. and, we got in a fight, she asks me to go home for a hour, because i wouldnt buy anything for us to eat? i said i was not hungry, and she said she needs space. so i was like okay, can i bring my puppy, i paid half of 500/ the dog was 1000. anyways, she was like he lives here not at your house. anyways, she said, "are you here for the dog or me" i said pfft the dog. and she broke up with me? anyways.. what do i do?

Huge Fight With Bestfriend, HELP PLZ!!!?

Im going to high school next year and I'm a girl. Ok, so my bestfriend is actually not very nice to me. In fact she is mean and bossy. She is also very nosy and needs to know every single detail of what happens to me. It's also either her way or no way. For example, if she wanted to go downstairs and I didn't want to she would literally drag me down. No joke. And she has made me cry before, not in front of her but like when I'm home and thinking about the stuff she said to me. But she can be very nice as well, and she is a good friend in other aspects. She always stands up for me and helps me with watever i need. My other friends always ask me, 'why do you hang out with her?' "Shes so mean and you're so nice." "She's so mean to you.' Etc... When I first met her there were four of us and she was nice to me. Now there's only me and her and she's a lot meaner. Anyways, she told me that someone told her that I talked behind her back and she believes it and she's mad at me now. I didn't talk behind her back, except for agreeing with my friends when they say that she's mean and that's the truth. In a way I think she deserves it but she just texted me saying do you wanna talk about it. I haven't talked to her about it tried to avoid her. This happened today. i don't know what to do. I kinda want to talk about it but don't really know what to say. I don't really want her as my bestfriend anymore and a lot of people don't like her. I mean sure as a friend, but not a bestfriend. But i don't know how to really stop being her bestfriend. I mean we eat lunch together with the same group and hang out with most of the same people. So I don't know what to do. Help me please!!!! Any advice is welcomed. Thank you! 10 pts

Frigidaire wall oven suddenly not working.?

My Frigidaire wall oven suddenly stopped working. When I turn both dials to "bake" then suddenly the light works, the clock works but when I turn the dials to off position everything doesn't work again. Are there fuses in this oven? I checked the manual but don't see any solution. Also when I turn the dials to bake the elements don't work either. I have changed elements in ovens before, but it seems odd they would both stop working at same time. It happened right after I broiled something. Was working fine then nothing.

I plan to spend between 150-250 on a gas grill at lowes does anyone have a suggestion as 2 which 1?

Did I mess up things ?

So I'm moving in 10 days and still haven't told my mom/grandma for sure. My mom already knows I am planning to go, but I havent told her that's it's for sure. Today I told my grandma about the idea and she seemed mad at first, but eventually she said she understood my wanting to go and gave me her blessing but she hoped I would stay. I didn't tell her it was going to be soon. I guess I felt bad. I'm telling my mom tonight. My grandma also said she didn't want to let me go, which I understand I guess. Overall, Im a little dissapointed by the response. Shouldnt I be encouraged to live my life and get out there? Im 23 and a college grad. Did I mess things up by not telling her?

My husband and i have been married for 4 yrs now, together for 8. I need to understand why some men are not ?

I need to understand why some men are not very affectionate? He has two brothers and both seem very loving and affectionate to their wives. His mother isn't a very loving person, but his dad is. I have tried everything to have this from him. His brothers wives are bossy and not nice...at all. So why is it that a wife that isn't a good wife gets love and affection and a somewhat good wife doesn't?

How do you convert broiler cooking time to oven cooking time?

The glazing part at the end may not work quite right without broiling but here's a suggestion for how to make this work. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Follow the first paragraph of the recipe substituting 20 minutes of cooking time. Create the honey mixture and follow directions from second paragraph. Return the chicken to the oven for 10-15 minutes or until no longer pink in the center.

What is broil? a lower or higher temperature?

Broil is different from regular baking, in that the oven does not cycle on and off to maintain a pre-set temperature. The heating element (either gas or electric) is fully on continuously to take advantage of direct radiant heat. The food is placed in very close proximity to the heat source, and tends to brown very quickly and even burn if it is not watched carefully.

Why is it every time I see him I look HOMELESS?

I don't care how I feel, even if I am sick, before I leave my house I have ALWAYS fixed my hair ( I go to the beauty parlor every week) I always put on make up to even my skin tone, and blush and lipstick. I always wear pants and T shirt that look good together and an over blouse that matches. It is important to always look your best. If he likes you the way you have been up to now he is going to love you when you do the job right. Get in the habit of looking good. It will make you a happier person and others will enjoy it too.

I swear to god theyre c0Ckblockers, and jealous weirdos. Im ignoring my Leo ex, and of course she tries to seduce all my friends and makes plans with them so i cant hang out with them. She also went to a party she wasnt invited to, because she thought i was going to be there and talking to other girls. She gets mad at my female friends because i have a lot of fun with them joking around. My other Leo friend, she likes my sag friend, who thinks shes annoying as hell.

Its so annoying how Leos follow me around like a puppy dog, pretend to be a ccouple in public..., and always compete and copy what i do.... is this normal for a scorpio or sag?

Does this type of friendship have a chance?

For some reason I tend to make good friends with the overachieving, type A, bossy type. It's so funny & I recently had this epiphany LOL..anyway, I don't like anyone bossing me around...especially if they are not an authority over me & they're just my friend. So I have been finding one of my friends is pushy/manipulates to try to get her way. Normally, I'd fall for it but I'm learning to develop a backbone, and I simply said no to the last thing she tried to make me do her way. Now she is acting hostile toward me because she doesn't understand why I couldn't do it. Another friend is just really bossy...not really manipulative on an emotional level, just bossy lol...and if someone asks me something nicely I'm more inclined to do it, but if they just give me an to do list of something to do, I can't deal with that approach. So again, I said no to the last thing she told me based on how she told me. In both of those situations, I could have done it but I don't want to send the message they can boss me around. I mean, I really do value these two friends for a lot of other reasons. They are rare in terms of their core values and their pursuits on life, etc...so what do I do? I would even welcome suggestions from other bossy personalities lol

Ugh can someone explain what is wrong with this picture (friends)?

I have friend #1 who divorced and single, but very sweet and agreeable. Friend #2 is married but her husband is her whipping boy...meaning he goes along with everything she wants to do and they pretend money and time are no objects...friend #3 is the direct/bossy friend who is married, works full time, goes to grad school, and has two kids. She has high expectations of herself and of everyone else. I am a stay at home mom with two kids and my husband works 60-70 hours a week, one hour away (commute). So friend #3 tries to plan a birthday party for friend #1 (keep in mind she is turning 32 so she's no little kid), but she creates the terms for this party, and it just doesn't work for me because of my family so I suggest different terms. Friend #2 looks like the good guy and says oh yeah I'll do whatever you want! Friend #3 gets mad at me and says we are best friends and we have never thrown a party for friend #1 so she figured we could do it. (None of us have ever thrown a party for any of us so where did that come from?). Friend #2 says oh yeah I agree and I'm down with that. I say well I tried to tell you when and what I could do, but we are still friends and still have quality time together, and isn't that good enough? Ackward silence...

Should I let my daughter go to a concert with her best friend's mother and her?

I took my daughter to the AP Tour to see Black Veil Brides and noticed I See Stars started a mosh pit. Now I See Stars is coming back to the same concert venue. She's been begging me to take her for the last two months, so I know she's dying to go. She mentioned it when her best friend was at our house the other day. Her friend said her mom would take both of them since they were planning on going also. I know her mom is very active in the church and a loyal Christian, but I don't know her too well. We've had conversations, so she's not a complete stranger. I'm still a little worried that my daughter's friend will get her to do something at that concert. Her friend has taken drugs and listens to bands like Blood On The Dance Floor. I'm afraid she'll get my daughter to use drugs or lose her virginity or something like that. From what I've seen, her friend doesn't seem to be bossy and do things like that, but I'm still not sure. Her friend is very sweet and polite, but she seems to be a little slutty. I'm mostly worried about the mosh pit because my daughter got pulled in and done the "wall of death". If you've never seen it, it's like tackling someone in football and is very dangerous for people the size of my daughter. I'm afraid the woman taking them might not notice and she'll get hurt, but I think my daughter could be more careful. At the other concert, she walked right through the mosh pit so she could get up front. So what do you guys think?

My boyfriends mom wont let us go out or do anything! 10 points for best answer?

I think it sucks but you have to respect her. Mother trumps girlfriend when you're not independent yet. And trying to snake your way past her rules is only going to make her dislike you more.

Does anyone know if there are any good science temp agencies in the Chicago/suburbs area?

How was I being rude/bossy!?

Was there a genuine reason for not wanting to do it, or were you simply butting heads with her because you felt that since your Mother was paying the instructor that the instructor was your employee/servant that should be listening to what you say and not the other way around. Understand that if you pay somebody to teach you something that you should do as they say when it comes to that particular subject. It sounds to me like you were acting like a spoiled brat. Your Mother is failing to teach you that you can't always get what you want, and that it is acceptable to simply quit anything the second that it gets tough. The real world is only a few years away kid, get ready, and good luck. With your attitude you will need all the luck that you can get.

I ate at Bubba Gump shrimp Company a few weeks ago and had the broiled tilapia with lobster butter sauce and garlic mashed potatoes. I know that they sell a recipe book and I wanted to see if anyone had this recipe. Thanks.

Ladies, want to know why guys lose interest so quickly?

How old are you? I kinda wonder if the young guys feel this way. You make a lot of sense but I think it is probably different these days, unfortunately.

When, Youre gonna not give in to him? She was like today! Then , the next minute. I know. I hear bangging and moaning in my grandmothers room!!!! I was like you slut! She's popular too. Really popular. I am an ugly duckling! I am one. Believe me! I hate it! Im the nerd out of the whole family!!!! Even the little kids in my family pick on me! It's irrateting! I can't help it. I Won't tell my mom. My cousin will only make it worse for me! My Cousin's boy friend calls me childish. Because I kicked the door by accident when they were having sex. Which, I really didn't know.

Ipad 2, Laptop? Ahhh!?

So I have a deliema. I am going into college in the fall 2011 and I was planning on getting a laptop via my money I got from relatives and help from my parents as my grad present. But lately I have really been looking into geting an ipad, this is because they are sweet and I was planning on getting a new ipod touch before college but I know someone with an ipad and I think it could come in hady a lot more than a new ipod (but a lot more $$$), i would use it both for books and another way to take notes in class and record lectures and even just play some games... But I also want to get a good laptop as a more homework thing to type on and such... I have a laptop now also but it barely has any memory and isn't suited for college life (about 3 to 4 years old, out to date and sort of slow). I am already looking into getting a nice laptop at about a $600 range and I have a job to pay for the ipad but I feel bad about spending the money on something like that. Even though I do have coupons and giftcards so the ipad 2 when I actually did buy it would be around $350 (not including tax)..... Please give me good advice and don't be dumb, please try to put yourself into my shoes. I really do want it but if people who have experienced this before could help that would be great :] Also getting a mac is out of the picture (both too pricey and not my kind of technology)... so that isn't a option at all..... PLEASE help :]]]]]]]]]]]]]]

Should I keep my mare in stall during lightning storm, or let her have turnout?

If storms are forecasted, bring her in before they hit. If you can't get her in before the storm hits, I wouldn't go out there for fear of getting struck myself. Her behavior is fear-based. She sees her herd as her safety net.

Do you have a boss who is too nice?

They got rid of our corrupt boss and in his place we have a good one;however, he is just too nice. Would you,or your boss ever tolerate from one employee name calling and yelling at another, in front of other employees,or being aggressive and bossy to her customers?Is this not harassment?Why has this employee not been disciplined?

Mushroom veloute with Pernod?

Sounds awesome to me. Just watch how much sauce you use so it doesn't overpower the sauce. I would definitely add the basil coulis, but as a garnish. It'll make that plate 'pop.'

When barbecuing tenderloin in a gas grill, wrap in foil or let it drip?

It's our first time owning a barbecue grill. It's propane. We got this big tenderloin roast that looks like the worm baby from The Fly, gonna cut it in half and barbecue it tonight. But it's pretty fatty, and my experience with broiling meat tells me it will drip a lot of juices. So should I put a sheet of foil under it? Wrap it in foil? Or just let it drip?

Should we call corp office on dog trainer? Help!?

My Mom got her dog trained at Petsmart. She went through puppy class and graduated. Upon grad, the trainer asked if she wanted to repeat the class or be promoted to intermediate. My Mom chose to sign up for interm because the trainer said she graduated. Duh! We then decided to bring our 3 year old terrier to training who had been through Petsmart puppy class but never graduated because of the trainer at the other store's incompetency and some issues. I worked with him myself. Both of them last night were hungry and bored and didn't cooperate. Suddenly, the trainer told us to get out and that both dogs had to go back to puppy class. When we tried to get a refund, he jumped out of the training room and started telling the manager not to give a refund and that we needed to wait and take the class in a few months and they will hold our money on file with our receipt. I think he had no right to tell my Mom and the manager what to do and if we wanted a refund, we could have gotten it (Petsmart's policy). Should we just go back to that trainer (both dogs do need training, but NOT from him!) or call corporate office and fuss?

How do u make oven broiled tomatoes? What spices?

You don't want to use really big ones....they don't get heated through. We like just a dash of pepper but you could use oregano and garlic.

Is it fair for me to make my GF NOT get DRUNK anymore?

I think you've got a fair point, I'm a bit like your girlfriend. I find it extremely difficult to control myself when I'm drunk and I've cheated when I'm drunk and it ruined mine and my ex boyfriend's relationship. I understand your concern, but dont be too controlling because girls dont like it when guys are controlling. I think you guys should talk. Tell her your concerns and if she respect you and wants to make the relationship work maybe she will cut down on her drinking. I know it must be hard to trust her when she's drunk. I really dont want your gf to end up in the same boat as me, getting drunk and cheating and losing a great guy. If she cant trust her when she drinks (I dont think she can if she thinks that she may cheat) I think she needs to cut down, especially if she cares about you an wants your relationship to work. Maybe she could get her mates to watch her when she's drunk so she doesnt do anything stupid. You guys need to discuss it. It is a hard one because she's young and probably just wants to have fun, but then again too much alcohol clouds your judgement and makes you make a lot of mistakes. Use my story for an example; a girl who keep getting drunk and cheating on her boyfriend and then she's paying the price when they break up and cant get over it knowing it was her fault. There's nothing wrong with getting drunk, but if she wants to make things work with you I think she needs to keep a limit where she can still have fun, but be in control at the same time. Hope I helped xxx

Need help!.....does the girl i work with like me?

we flirt on and off throughout the day.....she is a little bossy towards me but playfully, she knows i like her,,,,,calls me a cutie constantly,,,,,just dont know wat to say, i wanna be more than her friend

Alright, so I'm going into high school and I want to forget about boyfriends/girlfriends entirely until I grad?

I realized that I want something more serious with someone who isn't perverted or stoned to hell all the time and I've realized that I'm not going to find that now haha. There's someone I can't get off my mind and have been interested in for the last 4-5 yrs but I know for a fact that he doesn't feel the same way about me, he's moving away, and even if he did like me it's not like he could understand. I've had lots of boyfriends and girlfriends and they've all turned out to be *****. I don't want to do it again. I see everyone else in relationships and it's so tempting, but I know it isn't going to work for me so I'm determined to forget about this at least until I leave high school.. Any tips?

GRE and online schools?

I'm thinking of going to Grad school. The thing is I don't have the time really to do it so online will have to work best. Through my researching schools to try and find the program I want, some schools say you don't have to take the GRE or any grad school admittance test. I thought you had to take it for any school. Has anyone gotten a degree from an online university? and if so did you have to take any test to get in? Thoughts on online colleges (they are becoming more popular for those of us who can't quit our jobs.)

6 year old trouble, please help! I am at my wits end!?

Ok so my six year old son has been out of control for the past year and a half. First he lies all the time. About absolutely nothing and to manipulate people too. He is giving away his toy plus stuff that isn't even his to other kids. He is stealing toys from children as well. Then he is being extremely mean and bossy to everyone. If he doesn't get his way he says he isn't going to be friends with them anymore! We have been "grounding" him, taking stuff away. None of it is working. What can I do? Please help!

Help on grad dresses..?

Why has the oven (both bake and broil) on my electric range oven stopped working?

This is the second time this has happened this year! The first time it happened we simply replaced our older appliance with a slightly newer, used one. This one is a GE and has no clock or any self-cleaning controls. It just has the 4 range/burner controls with a single oven control in the middle, which controls both oven temperature and broil. Neither the broil nor baking features work at all, and the indicator light does not come on when I turn on the oven. The range seems to be working fine, however. What's the problem? And why has it happened more than once so recently? We live in a very old house, and I'm concerned about the old wiring. Could there be surges or failures causing this?

Could someone illustrate a photo for me actually their grad photos and I want them to look special?

Corned beef brisket in the Crock Pot... lots of water or not lots of water?

I would never put the brisket in a crock pot unless you want to cook it for 3 days. If you do it WILL be rubbery. It needs more intense heat. Bring the brisket to a boil and turn down to a slow simmer on the stove top for 8/10 hours. Save your crock pot for a pork roast.

So my friend lied straight to my face, best approach to still keep friendship?

So I haven't seen a really good friend of mine since her graduation party from her highschool (shes 18, im a 17 year old male who is now a senior). And we were supposed to hang out a little while after that (her grad party was exactly a month ago yesterday), but she made other plans and didn't tell me about them until last minute. I was heartstricken because I see her as like a sister to me. Anyways, I'm leaving for a month on Thursday, and we're supposed to hang out tonight (Wednesday night), but she told me on skype only a few hours ago about how she's going to bring me to a party and how we're going to have so much fun and stuff. First off, she knows I don't drink and I'm not a partier. Secondly, I feel lied to. Third, I feel like she's only bringing me to this party (a party of her close friends whom I don't know) because she feels bad that she basically cancelled the plans we were supposed to have. Do I go to the party (she says she's not going to drink,either,for several reasons)? Do I ditch her? What do I do??? Please help??!! This is an awkward situation I don't want to be put in!

Need help developing a recipe.?

Sounds good to me. Rosemary and thyme taste good with chicken. Or you could have dipped the chicken slices in egg and coated them with bread crumbs, crushed corn flakes or crushed french onion and cooked it--I've done all three with sliced chicken breasts or chicken tenderloins.

How can I *best* re-heat oven-roasted pork steak w.o. drying it?

The easiest thing is to put them into a pan with a couple of tablespoons of water and then cover with foil. Heat them for about 20 min. in the oven.

Do you AKA grad members really volunteer to sponsor you?

I'm interested in joining a grad chapter of AKA in Houston. I'm active in my community (Urban League, MBA Associations, Mentoring, Church, etc.) I've joined organizations that interest me, not necessarily to meet members. That being said, I don't know many members. I recently attended an event with one of the grad chapters and the members basically sat with each other and talked with each other leaving the non members to congregate. My question, will someone really volunteer to sponsor an aspirant? Do they want to get to know us at their events?

My five year old has the biggest urge to feel important and is always trying to get attention and validation, ?

Even from strangers in public. He is my youngest of five and I've never seen any child feel the need to be so important. My others are grown...not in the home, except for one. My five year old has a very typical life for a kid, and is not deprived of stuff or attention, but quite average in those things. Why might he want to be so super extra important, like he has the ego of a thirty year old or something. He's very playful otherwise. But he's bossy and self important far more than most his age. Any idea why?

Why would fast food burgers be bad/cause acne if they are char-broiled and not fried?

Because of the fat content in the burgers, how they are cooked is irrelevant if they are packed with fat and preservatives and unnatural ingredients . Most people will use an 80/20 meat which means 80% lean 20% fat , that's the normal for say a burger . But fast food places don't want to spend the money on that and it is cheaper to do a higher fat content.. Because the burgers are just so packed with unnatural things and junk they have side effects on your body and therefore your skin.

How to part your hair?

Okay, so pretty much I used to part straighten and my hair far to the left until like 10th grade. Pretty much all through 11th grade I didn't really part it that well, and I just sort of let it sit there and my bangs just sort of flop over. Anyways I'm taking grad pics soon and I want to part my hair like I used to, but now it looks kind of weird. It used to look sort of like Amy's hair from Secret Life of the American Teenager in the first season (I don't know what her hair looks like now), but the part wasn't as far over as her's. How can I get it to look like that again?

Is it possible for a girl (who is my best friend) who only likes me as a friend to fall for me later on?

Which girl should I pick?

I am currently in a relationship with a girl I really like. However, there's this other girl who I'm sort of developing feelings for. Both girls have strong feelings for me. The girl I'm currently dating doesn't like this other girl very much. She's also extremely bossy and flips out over little things. Plus idk if I can trust her. But this other girl I can trust with my life. She's one of my best friends. She's very sweet and caring. But I'm not sure who to choose. If I pick the other girl, I will definitely lose my friendship with my current gf. Please help!!!

Have You Ever Had That Friend...?

It takes two people to make a situation awkward. Work on being a fun, outgoing person, and dont be so judgemental. From what it sounds like, shes trying to grow a friendship with you and make conversation, but your not helping the conversation. Dont be such an overthinker, because if she keeps calling you, its obviously noy awkward for her. Maybe sone time when you are with your other friend you can invite her over for once, and things will be less awkward with the three of you there.

How long do you need to bake or broil a 2 inch bone in rib eye steak? 10 pts!?

We were told to broil for 8 minutes on each side. It was beyond rare! We have a run of the mill GE oven and 1 more steak, Should we bake it or broil it?

Anyone remember a boxed pudding called 'Danish Dessert?' How about junket tablets to mix/melt in warm milk?

I always forget just how many 'good eats' we had all those decades ago...anyone in here remember some of their own old favorites? How about prune whip, eggs goldenrod, and Bakers chocolate wafers - came in a round tube like Pringles do today, and could be stacked with whipped cream between, wrapped in wax paper for a few hours, then sliced on the diagonal and served with more whipped cream on top of each serving. Ahhhh bliss! And let's not forget creamed finnan haddie, broiled shad roe [Bumblebee made a nice tinned version] and chipped beef on toast. Memory lane eats, anyone?

What would be a good price for a 1971 mustang grande coupe that is priced at 5k? Price negotiable.?

The Mustang Grande model was mostly owned/driven by old woman back in the day. They are hardly collector's items. Offer $4000 cash and see if he takes the bait.

What should I do about my bossy and childish friend?

let it be so you guys can continue to drift apart. she sounds like she doesnt appreciate you as a friend, and doesnt deserve you if she isnt going to treat you right. this rose sounds like a mch more suitable gal to befriend. this whole drifting this is emily's own fault, and if she cant accept it then she will just have to find new friends because she wouldnt listen to what you guys were trying to tell her..

My Roommate Wants to get a Dog?

So, my roommate and I are 2 single guys living in an apartment in the city. My roommate wants to get a dog and I am not sure this is a good idea. My roommate is flat broke all the time; he’s even borrowing rent money from me every month until the middle of the month. I had a serious talk with him about finding more income so he can start paying his share of the rent ON TIME. Now he wants “us” to get a 10-month-old puppy. Personally, I love pets a lot, but I am a very busy young man (working full time and part-time grad student) at this point in my life and I can’t afford the time, responsibility and costs that come with taking care of a dog. A dog would have to be my roommate’s sole responsibility, and I just don’t see that happening since he can hardly pull his own weight even now. How is he going to pay for its food or its vet bills? How will he pay me or the apartment back if the dog tears up my furniture or the apartment carpeting? I predict he's going to be borrowing money from me to pay for these expenses and asking me to help out with the dog when I'm pressed for time already as it is. I hate to have to sound like a bad person and tell him we can’t have a dog. I’m not an animal-hater, in fact, I’d like a dog if I had more time on my hands to take care of one, but I work every day and go to school/meetings at night. I don’t know, am I wrong? Am I a bad person if I flat out tell my roommate that he cannot have a dog?

Why are leos such big jerks?

Here we go again. Seriously though, leos are such a drag to be around. Shall we go down the list? Leos are conceited, bossy, intolerant, egotistical, nosy, inconsiderate, and disrespectful. The worst thing about them is they hate to swallow their pride. If you tried to bring this kind of stuff to their attention they would get all sensitive like a pisces. Leos will step all over peoples feelings then never want to apologize. King of the zodiac my ***. Glad I'm an Aries. What is your opinion on leos?

Should I be worried about my girlfriend going to this party?

Look, just tell her you don't want her to go. Tell her you trust her and that you hope she has a good time though. Tell her to call you after the party when she gets home so you know shes okay. That way you know she's home and not with some douche bag. Then when she calls ask her how the night went and tell her you miss her and wish you could have gone to the party with her and say she probably looked hot in lingerie ;) Woman like compliments from the man she is with ;)

Rumours ruined my reputation. No one likes me. PLZ HELP!?

Nothing much you can do, your rep was tampered with and ruined. They were probably tring to show you what it feels like to be at the bottom of the food chain, and plus your only in grade 6. don't stress about it too much. whats done is done- you cant do much about it now.

What can i do to help my brother?

My brother and I have always been rough with each other (Hes 14 and im 16). When we were small he used to love me soo so SO much. he would always want to play with me and always be so nice, bring food for me even though we fought a lot. i admit i was not the nicest of sisters. i was very bossy but i loved him so much and made that clear. then throughout my preteen years (13-15) we started getting worse, mostly because of me i admit. i was going through hard times - bullying in school - so when i came home id be in a bad mood and hed be annoying and rude and id just explode and wed fight. but then things werent so bad. we were fighting OCCASIONALLY and wed always immediately make up afterwards. But this year, has honestly been the worst of my life. Hes changed so much.. like a 180 turn. At first i kindof understood: new school/new system/having a hard time adapting/not making friends + adolescence so i tried my best to be understanding. But its been getting so unbelievably bad. Hes SO RUDE to my mum. As in sometimes leaving me open mouthed from the horrible things he says. and hes a million times worse to me. He says horrible horrible things and is so angry all the time. ive tried everything from trying to be nice to exploding back at him. weve had the worst fights ever and when i try to talk to him about anything he just retorts with rude comments and anger. im no angel i have a short temper too so i usually just tell him to get lost. But i mean throughout our whole lives we always had that deep connection. the kind of brother sister: we fight on the outside but on the inside we love and care for eachother. but im not overexaggerating when i say i dont think thats there at all anymore. when he was 12 i told him i hated him and i found him crying in his room (we made up after and i apologised etc) but i mean thats how much he loved me. now its nothing..its worse than nothing, he hates me, he hates life, he hates EVERYTHING. i really dont want him to be angry all the time. i want him to be like he was. my mum used to call him "white heart" because he had such a pure loving caring heart..now its like theres so much hate there and i dont know why. i know im partly to blame, but hes never been like this before. weve always had ups and downs i just dont understand why hes being like this now. weve had countless talks, my mum cant take it anymore. shes getting more tired every day and im really worried about her. she cant handle the rudeness and anger thats my brother and shes always crying. i dont know what to do. can someone please help me

Recent grad applying law school but need job ideas in the meantime?

I am a recent grad. I was a double major in International Relations/Finance. I have interned for a US Senator and an Accounting firm. My gpa wasn't that great (2.7) because I was pre-med for a while which brought it down but my major gpas were 3.4/3.3 respectively. I'm studying my butt off now for the LSAT in order to get a high schore to make up for my gpa. Any ideas of what industries (gov, finance, non-profit) I should work in that would be good for my resume and a law school would be impressed by? I don't really have anything government related on my resume besides the senator.

Have you noticed actors always play their opposite sign? By force more than anything....?

I haven't noticed that lemme think about it.. K I guess they can't help but summon their "shadow" side when they're acting, if that's what they do.. If their Sun is Aries, their shadow is Libra.. I don't know too much about "shadow" side to explain it. Just adding to what you mentioned..

For the cabbage soup diet, why is it asking to eat up to 8 bananas? Isn't that to much?

Lol at ignorance and stupidity. You don't want to hear the truth? Are you really that hard headed? Diets like these are horrible for your body. Why don't you try another stupid diet like where you eat nothing but paper? After all, that diet is pretty much doing the same damage as the one you're doing now.

Can I lock myself in my oven?

Cooking ranch/parmesan chicken?

i have this recipe that im sort of changing a little. just mixing ranch seasoning, parmesan cheese, and bread crumbs then shaking the chicken in that. the chicken is chicken tender fillets. they're not that big. just wondering what the best way to cook it would be? i could bake it or broil it. if i bake it, how long should i cook it and on what temp? and im also trying to find the best way to keep in flavor. i usually broil chicken and its awesome but i dont want that flavor to kill the seasoning flavors.

Need help adjusting cooking time for Broiled Marinated Potatoes?

If you broil them for 7 minutes on each side, they will be warmed all the way through even if they are cold. I would remove them from the ice box about 30 minutes before broiling.

How to direct without being bossy?

I work with a bunch of new people and feel like since Ive been there the longest its my responsibility to let people know how to do new things. There was a serious lack of training and people are standing around all the time. Im not the boss or a manager, just a fellow employee so I cant tell them to get back to work. I say things like " could you work on" or "would it be possible for you to..." and other times their coming up to me asking what they can do. They follow directions well and listen to me but I want to lead, have people like me and also get work done. I also know that I can come off a little intense and dont wanna be a b****. Anyone have any tips or tricks to be a successful leader?

Fairly simple math problem I'm stuck on!?

Thinking about a grad school for linguistics?

I have a bachelor's degree in Journalism and I have been a reporter since I graduated in 2008, not including internships. Since I've been frustrated with the newspaper industry and how work is dwindling, I'm looking into starting in another field. I speak Spanish and took linguistics course in college, so I'm thinking about pursuing it in grad school. Does anyone have any knowledge about this job field and opportunities?

I am considering looking into the NROTC Marine option. Just out of curiosity, do you have to become active duty after graduating from school? Is it possible to become a reservist after if you plan on going to grad school?

Can you fry whole Portobello mushrooms?

I'm making burgers and I never have fried them before. I plan on making them the same way I do when I broil them, but the oven will be tied up. So to cut time I was going to pan fry them. Will it make them rubbery or tough? Thanks in advance!

Can you help me fix my new gas grill?

Is it possible a part could be installed backwards or upside down? With the instructions they give you for assembly that is very possible.Or wrong parts were shipped in the box. Check the end of the wire as it might have been crushed. Also you can use an awl to widen the opening to the wire a little. Sometimes they are a very tight fit but yes they are supposed to slip right on. Check your frame to see if maybe you have two of the same ends or like I said maybe upside down.I've done that before when assembling BBQs for display at the store.And yes I can follow directions, It's just Char-Broil has a gazillion parts and no pre assembly at the factory. Instructions are not easy to follow for anyone sometimes.

Pay/employment figures of UIC engineering grads?

Their career services office would probably be the best place to ask, because they usually do surveys of their graduates to see where they ended up working. Don't assume that a more expensive college degree is better, I'm an engineering major also and have had retired engineers tell me that the name of the school on your diploma becomes irrelevant the day you show up for your first job.

Can I use student loans to pay my mortgage payment as a living expense?

I want to buy a house now while the rates and house prices are low, but I plan on entering grad school to become a physician assistant within 3-4 years. The program takes about 2 years, and I would probably get a $75k salary job right out of school. Does anyone know if I could get a student loan that would allow me to pay a $1k monthly mortgage payment as a cost of living expense? I have great credit in the high 700's.

My new pizza pan burns the crust before the cheese even browns?

Try greasing your pan slightly (not butter)!!!!! Use like a vegetable oil because it has a higher flash point and will not burn as butter will. also check your oven sometimes it will run hotter or cooler than what it says, i usually don't even go by the what it says anymore because its wrong most of the time. I use a little inexpensive thermometer to place in the oven and go by that. This way you know for sure.

Should you put a cover page on your grad school application essays?

Should you put a cover page on your grad school application essays? My graduate school application process is all done online. Both essays (2) are submitted separately (uploaded). What about a TITLE? I am afraid to use a title as I don't want it to undermine the essay (if that makes sense).... I'd rather not use the title/essay "names" I have come up with and just have the essay start with a proper heading aligned to the left with my name, school name, date...but I don't want to NOT include a title/cover page if that is standard/expected.. They are due today and I cannot seem to find the proper guidelines on how to layout my essays. Thanks!

How to ignore a "best friend" ? And is she really my best friend ?

We've been friends since the beginning, I've known her since birth basically. When we got in 5th grade she began to change, like she acted like a bossy preteen. She hated her mom. She dressed in short shorts that showed her butt-cheeks. She stuffed her bra. She acted rude. We're now in 8th and she's still the same exact way. But over the years I've been nothing but nice to her. I gave her hugs, told her I loved her, cared, went to the doctor with her, told her everything was okay when it wasn't, gave her advice, it's too long of a list. And she turns on me and re-pays me by being a b**** ?Well recently my mom and dad went on a over night trip and I had to stay the night at her house my mom wanted me to hang out with her more then she invites another friend over too. Yes, I like this other friend. So we went walking around the block her friend slaps her cause she said something mean, then my "bestie" slapped me. It left a red mark. Then we pulled an all-nighter and then all she did was talk to this other friend so I ended up falling asleep first cause no one talked to me. Then the next day we went swimming and the "bestie" kept dunking me. And we did races to see who was the fastest and she pushed me back. Then I didn't say anything the rest of the day. And then today she blocked me on facebook. ? How can I ignore this girl ? BTW: She always tells me I'm her #1 best friend, but I don't feel like it. So is she really my best friend ? Help ? I'm so confused.

Is this bad please Answer?

ok i like this girl that has a bf and im 13 shes 15 and her bf is a grad and out of school something wrong with this picture??

How can I lose this weight?

I am 15 years old, 6' 3" and weigh 237lbs with a body fat percentage of 27% and I want to lose as much weight as possible over the summer. I do not drink soda and drink atleast a gallon of water a day with some tea and milk during breakfast and dinner. I take vitamin c, specifically 1000mg of it a day for my immune system and blood, and a flaxseed pill which I believe had something to do with my fibrosis of the liver which I believe is no more. I eat a normal breakfast (cereal, milk, bagels, toast, fruits etc.) I have healthy lunches usually (soup, salads, fruit, light sandwiches, etc...) and my family typically gives me healthy dinners which are broiled grilled or steamed when it comes to it. Chicken and broccoli, fish and rice, dishes that are natural yet flavored by peppers and such. That should about cover any information needed. My question is, how do I lose this weight? I mean my ideal goal would be to lose every percentage of fat but what do I do? Please someone just give me a routine or something to follow any information. I have nothing wrong with me and my doctor says I'm healthy. I just wish to lose this weight.

Why is Marilyn Milian so nice when a good judge is bossier like Judith Sheindlin?

Will failing one class kill my chances of getting into a good graduate school?

Is it too late for you to withdraw? You might want to look into that. If not, though, I don't think it'll be a dealbreaker. There's usually a place on the application where you can clarify any issues in your academic record. You can just explain that you wanted to stretch yourself, but you got in over your head despite your best efforts and the experience really reaffirmed that [chosen program] was what you were meant to do. They'll probably conclude that themselves if it's a total outlier compared to the rest of your record, but it helps to give your side of the story. (Alternatively, you could retake the class or at least take a similar elective that's more forgiving to non-science majors, but I don't think it's worth it if there's other stuff you need/want to take instead.)

Char broil american gourmet help?

i just a char broil american gourmet grill/smoker.....any body had any experience with this little smoker. It is the smaller version of char broils American Gourmet Deluxe. Any tips on using a small smoker versus a large one. Anything will help thanks.

Why is my oven is not heating up but the broil works?

You must have an electric oven and it sounds as though the bottom coil has burned out. I know this will happen all too often if it is used to heat your kitchen on those chilly mornings. Buy a new coil, simple to install, or get a new oven altogether.

How do I improve dry chicken thighs?

I cooked and then broiled chicken thighs, and put half of them aside for next day's dinner, but they got very dry overnight. How can I make them better?

Ugh can someone explain what is wrong with this picture (friends)?

I have friend #1 who divorced and single, but very sweet and agreeable. Friend #2 is married but her husband is her whipping boy...meaning he goes along with everything she wants to do and they pretend money and time are no objects...friend #3 is the direct/bossy friend who is married, works full time, goes to grad school, and has two kids. She has high expectations of herself and of everyone else. I am a stay at home mom with two kids and my husband works 60-70 hours a week, one hour away (commute). So friend #3 tries to plan a birthday party for friend #1 (keep in mind she is turning 32 so she's no little kid), but she creates the terms for this party, and it just doesn't work for me because of my family so I suggest different terms. Friend #2 looks like the good guy and says oh yeah I'll do whatever you want! Friend #3 gets mad at me and says we are best friends and we have never thrown a party for friend #1 so she figured we could do it. (None of us have ever thrown a party for any of us so where did that come from?). Friend #2 says oh yeah I agree and I'm down with that. I say well I tried to tell you when and what I could do, but we are still friends and still have quality time together, and isn't that good enough? Ackward silence...

My husband's best friend disrespect me?

I divorced the jackass. Husband #1 did this..and it progressed to getting slapped because his best friend wanted to ride in the front seat. Hubby decided it was between his friend and I no matter how ugly it got(imagine married 5 years..2 kids...college educated wife...dirt bag hubby with pot head friends) I am remarried. If a guy did that now...he'd be wiping hiss *** off the concrete with tissue papers.

Why do you say to him? easy 10 points!?

I suggest you find a different project. This stubborn guy has too many issues to waste much time upon.

What is the nutritional value of teriyaki?

Grilled or broiled Japanese food in a soy sauce marinade. I do like teriyaki, but I'm just wondering of the nutritional value.

Funding for grad school?

Sure. The way you put it you should have no problem, especially with the masters background. Don't just tell the graduate committee how you plan to be a scholar at their university, show them. When (not if) you land an interview or candidate interview show the graduate committee what you have learned through your master's program. Hopefully your master's was a thesis based due to the shear backup power on knowledge you will have, and tell them how you are going to use what you have learned and performed scholastically to the next level. If you are going in for your Ph.D. really think about how you are going tell them the directions you are heading or plan to head. If you have had the opportunity in working on a thesis tell the committees how you are committed to academic excellence in your field and specialty. Tell them something that isn't a cookie cutter version of every other student that has passed in front of them, most importantly express interest in the program but don't be too over zealous. Make sure you are relaxed, ask questions and most importantly, if you get to go to the UK before you apply, talk to faculty in the area(s) you are looking into. Get to know them and talk to them on a regular basis. If you can't go to the UK in the short term, write to the faculty members of the program of interest. Clear communication and a strong, developed candidates make the best graduate students.

17 And Still Being Treated Like A Kid?

As much as you may not want to hear it, the truth is your still a minor and you still live under there roof. Parents love their kids and want to keep them safe. One day when you have your own kids to look after you will understand why our parents did the things they did. You only have a year left until your 18. For now show them your an adult and that you understand why they have these rules. They do it because they love you, even though it may feel like they are trying to keep you a kid forever and show you no respect. There truly is a reason for it. Be patient.

Why are ridiculously low salaries offered nowadays to well educated candidates?

Most of the recent college grads cannot find job and those who do get job offers, discover that the rate being offered is ridiculously low. For example, I graduated with bachelor of science in mathematics back in 2008. For many many months there was no job that I could find. Then I gave up hunting for job and instead decided to pursue master's in math. When I heard news by the phony Obama circle that "job market is picking up", I started to apply for job. Then I finally got a full time job offer as "energy analyst". I then discovered I am being offered 13.50 an hour only. That is ridiculously low job offer for someone having bachelors in math, computer science, engineering or physics. People make that without any degree working as cashier in store. I questioned why 13.50 an hour only and the recruiter said in an apologetic tone, "this is all we can offer. times are tough". After some more conversation I discovered that it is a "temp" job. Then after some more conversation I discovered that there are no benefits being offered. Then after some more conversation I also discovered that, "training will not be paid. first 4 weeks is training". So he is saying that for the first 160 hours I work free because training is not paid. And then its also a temp job. I thought after 160 free hours, he will just say "its temp job so its over now" and take a lot of work. I refused the offer.

Why are women so subservient, submissive and downtrodden in eastern cultures?

I'm originally from Bangladesh, a small country in South Asia. Actually, my parents are from there. I was born in Italy. But my roots are from there. I went there a month ago to see my sick granddad. And I am sickened by how the men their treat their women. They treat them like cattle and property. It is a highly patriarchal society. The women cook, clean and look after the children and don't work. 99% of women there are traditional housewives who bow down to their husbands and kiss their feet. My mom however, is a doctor. She is one of the very few women who work. But she still cooks, cleans, looks after my little brother and works. My dad is unemployed at the moment. He doesn't do anything. He just eats, sleeps and goes to the toilet. He occasionally helps my mom. And my parents live in Australia, which is a western society. Sometimes, I wish I could teach my dad a MAJOR lesson. But how? I honestly don't understand how my mom could bear all this. My dad is not that bossy unlike the other Bangladeshi men. He does listen to my mom and he DOES what my mom tells him to do. But he just has a know it all attitude that annoys me. Well, anyway this isn't about my family. It's about my auntie and other women who go through the pain. My auntie is among the 1% who go to work in Bangladesh. She told me her everyday scenario from first thing in the morning is waking up, making breakfast for husband and then apparently getting scolded and getting divorce threats from her husband for making a crap breakfast, then going to work in a crammed bus, and then taking bs from sexist boss. She told me her boss teases and makes fun of her for working because she is a female. Then, after a long & tiring day at work she goes home again to be yelled at by her husband. Her husband accuses her of coming home so late! WTF!!! This is SO messed up! I mean her husband eats FREE, doesn't help around the house at ALL, doesn't work and yet he yells at her for working late so that HE gets his daily bread! And my auntie is actually a housewife. She has to work because her husband either can't find a job or is TOO lazy to work! And the rest of the 99% of women don't even get the chance to work because if they work they APPARENTLY will become DISOBEDIENT to their husbands and fathers and become too smart. They stay home and lick their husbands feet and tolerate their BS. The average Bangladeshi woman is dependent on their male relatives their whole entire life, from birth till death. From birth till maturity she is dependent upon her father. After that she is married off & is therefore is dependent upon her husband. And when her husband is old and retires she is dependent upon her son (if she has one). In marriages, the girl has to go live in her husband's parents house where she serves her husband & in laws, especially her mother and father in law. After that she is pressured by husband & in-laws to give birth to a son. I have seen guys go as far as divorcing their wives and marrying new ones because their ex wives have failed to give birth to a son. The women have no say in public matters and society related issues. They are are usually told to shut up because they "don't know anything". I am horribly disgusted with this disgusting attitude towards women and relieved at the same time because I am lucky enough to not be in their shoes. I want to know why these women are so subjugated and oppressed. I really don't understand. Thank u to people who have decided to read my long and rather boring rant! It really feels good to let out all of that frustration!

Parents help please! my grad ceremony is tomorrow and I really don't want to go! really dreading this!!?

I cant believe that your mother is being like that. She should be proud of you for graduating, not freaking out over you missing out by 1%! Yes you may be bummed about this 1%, but don't skip graduation over it. You will only graduate from high school once, don't miss the experience of the ceremony. Just tell yourself that you did your best, and that you made it to graduation, unlike other people who don't. Also maybe you should try talking to you mom about the way she is making you feel, its a good idea to get that stuff out in the open. Good luck and Congratulations!

I hate my best friend?

Ok so i think i hate my best friend. she weighs about 80 kilos and i weigh about 60 and shes always complaining to me about how fat and ugly she is and how i should help her get a boyfriend (even though she doesnt even like anyone) and then turns around and tells me she doesnt care about me and my problems and I have to help her first. She also used to like my boyfriend and keeps on whining that i stole him off her even though he never liked her. Shes really bossy 2 and makes me do all this stuff for her like give her my lunch coz she doesnt have any ( but shes toold me before she could pack her own but she cannt be bothered0 and whenever i suggest something she says 'no, we have to do it MY way'. but she is my best friend and I dont want to hurt her feelings cuz she can also b really nice and fun to be around. What dO I Do!!

What should I wear for my Grade 12 graduation?

Maybe a nice blazer and some nice dress pants would look nice :) 12 grade graudation is memorable thing, and I'm pretty you don't want to remember it in jeans and a t-shirt! ;) I find dresses pretty uncomfortable. Or, a pencil skirt, with some heeled shoes/sandals and a nice blouse. Hope I hepled

I have a controlling friend?

I've known her my whole life. And even as kids, she was very bossy. I mean, i never really liked her, but our parents are best friends and we do a lot together. And she's a total ***** and I honestly don't know why I still hangout with her. She always brings me down, and we always do whatever she wants to. We've fought a lot last year but this year, I kept everything inside and I just need to let it all out. It's not like we don't have fun when we hangout. I do, but I'm sick and tired of her being so bitchy all the time and being a spoiled brat. She always brags about how 'smart' she is and she always calls me the 'stupid one'. If I said that I thought I did pretty good on a test and I felt pretty smart, she looks at me weird and says 'But you're not smart'. I don't have many friends so if I drop her, I won't really have anyone left. I don't like talking to other people, I think I have social anxiety. She also makes fun of how lonely I am and how I don't have friends. When I want to go somewhere, but she wants to go to another she says ' I don't care. You can go there alone if you want. But I'm not going there.' and then she starts to walk the other way and I just end up going with her. Also, she's so effing lazy. Our sleepovers now is her on her laptop on her bed, and she hands me another laptop and thats all we do. Like wtf? Thats not a sleepover, I can do that at home, and still have more fun. Towards my sister, she acts all nice and sweet, and hugs her and all that ****. Once my sister leaves, she turns around and just acts like a total ***** again. She acts nice to everyone but me and my other friend. Let's call the ***** Lisa and my other friend Sarah. Lisa has pretty big chest and Sarah doesn't. And Lisa always teases Sarah about it, like 'My boobs are sore today' and then she looks over at Sarah and says 'You wouldn't know. You dont even have boobs.' And I have like, the same size as Lisa and she would still make somewhat of a same comment to me. She also says that Sarah is too skinny and its disgusting just cause she isn't as skinny. And she always makes fun of her other friend how fat she is behind her back. But if someone is skinny she calls them anorexic. And she always calls me a *****. Like 'Get over here, *****' 'Where is that *****?' and she always makes me feel invisible. Like, im standing RIGHT there and she's like 'Where is that *****? Oh, you're here? I didnt see you.' I really can't stand up to her because she's really good with words and she always wins. What should I do/say? xoxo

Friendship problems, help?

So i have two friends, and in class we're known as the best friend trio. I'll be referring to them here as L and D. I was best friends with L for a year before we became friends with D; so I know L longer is friends with her more. Now, D just came into our friendship, and we let her join in...so she was our friend. But now, she keeps on being bossy, like telling us what to do, and I don't mean to sound mean, but she's turning bitchy. She gets mad when I get better grades when her when it's not my fault- isn't her grades her responsibility? Then me, being the stubborn and hot tempered person I am, would always argue with her. Then when I get a grade that isn't failing, but something below what I usually get (90-100), she would laugh and rub it in my face. When I talk to L about something she would always interrupt and get L's attention (and no, not like flirting attention lol, they're both girls) and then she would try to get in the convo. I had a fight a few months ago because she got mad that I got better grades than her and she felt that I was competitive when I'm not. True it is that I try to get good grades, but if I don't then I just accept it and try to get a higher grade. L was trying to stay neutral, but after a week or so, she confessed to me that she was on my side but didn't want to hurt D's feelings. D is basically, becoming a totally different person. When I talk with my other friends she gets mad, like possessive almost. When I play cards in class (since it's summer, we barely do learning in class now) she gets mad that I play with other people, but well, I have other friends. L understands that I have a social life and hang out with other people but D just wants me to hang out with her and her only. What should I do?

Have You Ever Had That Friend...?

It takes two people to make a situation awkward. Work on being a fun, outgoing person, and dont be so judgemental. From what it sounds like, shes trying to grow a friendship with you and make conversation, but your not helping the conversation. Dont be such an overthinker, because if she keeps calling you, its obviously noy awkward for her. Maybe sone time when you are with your other friend you can invite her over for once, and things will be less awkward with the three of you there.

Help i have a bossy friend who has a lot of control over me:(:(?

Half cook meat and then fully cook it?

My grandma half cooked frozen sausages this morning. She stuck them in the fridge and they have been in there for 6 hours, half cooked. She now plans to " fully" cook them by broiling them in the oven. Are these safe to eat? Can I get food poisoning or anything like that by eating meat that was half cooked, refrigerated, and the cooked again? Thanks.

Are there any laws against teachers attending graduation parties?

I wondering if there any state and federal laws against teachers attending the graduation parties of students because when I graduated from high school, I invited some of my teachers, who a few of came, to my graduation and recently someone told me they don't think that it's legal for them to attend graduation parties. I think that it's okay for them to attend as long as they try not influence the student that the grad party in any way but I want to be sure.

Is london broil (a cut of beef) healthy?

Yes, occasionally. Keep in mind that the healthiest of proteins are white meats. And, keep all meat portions the size of your fist! London Broil is the healthiest cut of red meat. We need red meats for healthy blood levels, but we need white meats to build long lean muscles!

Close friends having their wedding same month as ours, what is the etiquette?

Have your wedding when it suits you. Once you know the date, tell (not ask) the other couple. Once the other couple set a date then your fiance can give his final yes or no to officiating, and there's nothing wrong with bailing out since they've moved the date. I'm sure officiating a wedding is a great privilege, but you don't move your wedding for it. And if his clique-ish friends don't want to go to two weddings in a month then they're not great friends anyway, so certainly don't move your wedding to suit them.

I have a Hotpoint 4-5yrold gas stove:the burners/timer/cloc work but the oven and broil do not-what do I do?

The gas apparently is not turned on. Turn the knob on a stove burner to ignite and see if you hear a clicking noise. The gas flow should also start and ignite. If you get the clicking but no ignition, turn to high and listen for gas flow. If you hear nothing, slide the drawer our from under the stove and look at the gas line. The petcock should be turned parallel to the gas line. If it is turned on, go check the valve at the gas meter. The egg shaped valve should be turned to match up with the valve body. If you still have no luck, call the gas company.

Do you think my husband would go for this!?

I found a really nice, bigger home for us(we have a 5 yr old) to live it has a yard (my daughter has been asking for a yard for soo long) we've been living in the place we're in since she was 1.... the new place basically has everything the place we have plus 10 times more..New place is bigger, has a yard, patio, townhouse style, 2 full baths, dogs are welcome (daughter wants a pup but no pets allowed at current place).same area we live in....the only thing is its $150 more......I really really want this place! I actually have a refund that I saved (about $6k) to put toward the moving costs/dwn pymt. I'm in grad school right now but do you guys think my husband would go for moving here if I tell him I'll get a part time job to make up the difference in cost?

What am I suppose to tell her? HELP!!!!! PLZ!!!! 10 points best answer?

There is really no other way for you to stop being friends with her and to be honest, face her, and tell her you don't appreciate the way she treats you. The best way is to talk. Communicating with her is the only way, If you stop just hanging out there will really be a confusion between her and you. Good luck!
