Question #1:
Will a female ever win American Idol again?
When Idol first began I imagine the voters were actually looking forward to determining who had the best voice, as there was a variety of men and women of different looks and sizes that won (or almost won), but the last few years it seems to me the attractive males have been making to the end and winning (with the exception of Taylor Hicks, I didn't think he had to look or voice to pull it off).Anyway, in my opinion, with more and more younger girls with cell phones on the rise, I would imagine they are the majority watching and voting, and certainly won't vote for a girl if they are cuter than them, regardless of their voice, and instead they will vote for the guy that looks the best.
What is your take on it? I honestly don't think you'll see a woman ever win again, unless the show is rigged or gets rigged.
Question #2:
Does anybody know how much it costs?
My cell phone carrier is Verizon Wireless. I have no plan like Talk & Text, or you get to send and receive so many text, picture, and voice messages every month. What I am asking is how much does it cost for one picture message to be sent if you have just the 700 minute talk plan with no texting at all. How much does it cost for one voice message? How about one plain text?Question #3:

Why can't Yahoo get their links Straight?
The story line was "How young is too young for a cell phone", yet none of the 20 stories that came up had anything to do with kids and cell phones.Question #5:
Please give me your opinion on this situation?
My boyfriend and I recently broke up. We have had a 6 1/2 year relationship. A few important points: he is 46 years old and lives with his manipulating, controlling mother, his family spends an unbelievable amount of time together! My relationship with him consisted of 1 weekly phone call and Saturday nights only - yes.... for 6 1/2 years! Honestly, I am not a very needy person, I work alot and I'm very independent, so this arrangement worked for me in that respect, although I know it wouldn't work for many other women!!! I started having a huge issue with him not having any privacy during phones calls, his mother would be in the background, commenting, listening, or whistling! Yes, whistling - especially if we were having a disagreement! I wanted to reach through the phone and take her head off!! I wanted him to get a cell phone - he said no, "he didn't have to keep up with technology, he has a home phone" blah, blah, blah!!! In my opinion the house, phone, etc. belong to his mother, not him! Long story short and getting to my question - I have had some medical issues in the last few weeks and really wanted to talk with him - called a few times, no answer, and I just couldn't make myself leave a voice mail. I just wanted to have a private conversation with him - it is absolutely none of his mother' s business what is going on with my health! I never did get to talk to him about it! The following Saturday, he blew me off, never called etc. The next day he said that he was the one doing all the calling, I told him I was plain tired of having to find out from his mother, where he was, when he would be back, etc.- it makes me feel like an idiot! I guess I feel insecure because I have had a few unsuccessful relationships, and even though I know I am not the one living with my mother at the age of 46, I feel like their must be something wrong with me! I wonder if he would be different with another women, even though his longest relationship before me was only six months! I just need some reassurance and support, if anyone has any to give!Sorry if I am bothering anyone with this same question - I just seem to get a lot of different opinions everytime I ask it!
Question #6:
For all reading lovers. What do you think of my writing?
I hated it everyday I looked in the mirror. My hair was receding and it was really getting so embarrassing when you’d have to bow forward to bring your pencil and one of the girls In your class notices the white patch under the slim line of hair. She'd smirk at it and run back to her desk to tell all of her friends.I thought of hair implanting but Mom told me that it’d be very dangerous and It might cause me skin cancer. I didn’t believe her; Mom treated everyone as if he knew nothing, but I convinced myself that it’d be harmful to do so. I thought what would people think after they would that I implanted new hair; it’d still be as embarrassing as not having hair at all, so in both cases I loose.
It was on the fifth of June that I stopped caring about my receding hair. I was walking with dad in the middle of the main corridor at the grand mall, when he placed a hand at his chest and tightened his grasp over my wrist. “ I can’t breathe,” he said, then dropped to his knees. I shook him twice in the shoulder, but he didn’t reply. A man in a white shirt ran at me out of the candy shop at my right. He helped me carry dad to the car and we placed him at the back seat. He asked me if I could drive but I couldn’t. Dad once offered me to take driving lessons, but I refused. I never thought that it’d be beneficial. A bus or a cap were safer.
The man looked at me as if saying, you’re useless then he pulled the keys from my hand and revved the engine.
We went to the nearest hospital. There, I used one of the nurses cell phones and called Mom. Mom was visiting Mrs. Jacqueline, one of our neighbors. She was an old, lonely lady and whenever I knew Mom was visiting her, I wished I was with her.
Mom screamed at me the moment she knew Dad was at the hospital. “ what happened?”
She didn’t shut the phone off and I heard her high heels clicking as she raced down Mrs. Jacqueline’s living room.
I waited for Mom with the man in the white shirt. We sat down at the main hall of the hospital. He asked me my name and said that I looked so much like Dad. I gave him a cold smile and turned my face to the beige floor. Some minutes later, Mom appeared in her silk, red shirt. After asking the doctors for Dad’s room, she headed there to find him already dead.

Question #8:
Was it the right decision to put her to sleep?
I always thought Polly would live for ages, so always seemed so full of life and never had any medical problems except for some eye and ear infections which were sorted out pretty easily. Then last Thursday my mum took Polly for a walk over the hills, she collapsed twice before she even got there so they went home. From then on she just sat in her bed, wet herself and wouldn't eat, just constantly drinking and then throwing it up sometimes. This went on until Sunday until she ate some bacon and stuff for breakfast, then it continued again. When I got home from school on Monday I managed to get her to eat loads, all of her previous dinner, loads of bowls of milk, snacks etc... After this I thought she was okay, but then it started all over again so my Mum took her back to the vets on Wednesday where they said they would do some more tests and keep her in overnight. On Thursday morning before I left for school the vets rang my mum, I thought they were going to say we could take her home until I walked out into the kitchen and saw my mum in tears talking to my dad on the phone, then I realised what was happening. The vet had said her bone marrow had stopped producing red blood cells or something and her count was 9 when normal was 25+ or something, he said the best thing for her would be to put her to sleep as the treatment was very expensive and as she was nearly 11 (and for a boxer that's just above average) she might not pull through. And so yesterday at about 12:45 in the afternoon, a week after all this started, my mum, dad and I went down to the vets to say goodbye to Polly. As she saw us she wagged her tail and seemed so happy, she got up after we had been petting and shook herself as if she was ready to go home with us. The vet said they are all like this even when they are really ill when they haven't seen you in ages, it just seems like she wasn't ready to go. We sat her down on a mat and all pet her and cuddle her as the vet injected her, she didn't struggle at all and her head just slowly fell to her paw.I just feel like there was so much we could have done, and it seemed like such a quick decision, she had only showed signs of being badly ill for about a week.
What do you think, should we have tried harder to keep her going?
Was the vet hasty in his decision as well?
I just feel so sad and guilty, I know it's only been a day but I feel like I'm never going to stop crying.
She was an 11 year old boxer, she did have a great life but I just can't seem to take any comfort in that.
Question #9:
do you agree that I thinkthere should be cell phone law for when a person turns 18 they can have a cell phone?
I think there should be a cell phone law like how there is a alcohol law, that you have to be at least 18 to own a cell phone. Why? Because people who are younger than 18 misuse their cell phone to sex text and other wrong stuff like that. Someone has to invent something just for those who are younger than 18 that only allows them to call or text their parents and the police, and that's all!!! People here in the united states need to focus more on their school so they can go to college so that they can settle down with a great job to provide for themselves and their future spouse. Education comes first, then a spouse, then kids. If every kid is taught that there would be a decreased rate of mistakes! You have to be at least 18 to own your own cell phone = you have to be at least 21 to drink alcohol, period.Please, I would like to know what everybody else think :)
Question #10:
Easy 10 pts GURANTEED!~~~~~~~~~<?
Somwonw called my cell phone service provider and topped up my pay as you go balance to $50. Then I noticed my phone was shut off. I called in and they said that I used a credit card to top up my balance but the credit card owner refused the payment. Am I in trouble by the police? Someone is trying to get me to go to jail.My pass code was also changed. The supervisor is going to phone me tommrow how do I Handel this so I don't go to jail?
Question #11:
I really hate my sister!!!?
I do my best in school and always get A's while my older sister (by 2 years) gets C's, but i don't get complimented on that. My mom and dad always try not to compliment me so that my sister doesn't get jealous or pissed off....and when she does something bad and gets her ipod or cell phone taken away...my parents take mine too because they don't want her to feel bad. My sister freaks out a lot and throws stuff (at me usually) and yells and breaks door....my parents tell me to just bear with it because my sister is going through some teenage emotional crap (but everyday???) Also, when me and my family have holiday dinners together (we rarely eat together cause my parents work late) my sister always gets someone in the family very mad and the whole day gets ruined cause of her. When she pisses off my mom or dad, they take it out on me!! my dad leaves the house a lot when he argues with her and comes back the next day...I feel really depressed at my family life and I really don't think i deserve such a bitch sister like her. She always calls me names and when i call it back, she cries like a baby even when shes older and gets ME in trouble. My parents treat her like the kid and me like the older one..the only one i think understands me is my brother cause he had to put up with her too (hes 6 years older than her) Please give me advise on what i should do with her because i cant take it anymore!!Question #12:
How does one determine the origin of an EVP?
There are plenty of other explanations for the existence of EVPs without even looking at ghosts, spirits, or other paranormal activity. An EVP is essentially electromagnetic interference in either the recording, storage, or playback device. This could originate from a wide range of sources from something as simple as electronic oscillations in your recorder to radio interference with radio waves or cell phone communications to simply random static that sounds like something when you magnify it 200 times and slow it down to a tenth of normal speed.I have two questions: how does one show that an EVP is of paranormal origin and how do EVP's demonstrate that paranormal activity is happening?
Question #13:
Do you like how the world is right now?
Or do you wish that the world was how it was back in the 1900s when technology wasn't fully advanced (ex: no computers, cell phones, etc). And why?Btw I think it was better before since people had more things to do rather thank just Facebook or video games and stuff. Techonogly has made us really lazy as well, instead of kids playing on the streets, they can sit for hours and play video games and I think that's one of the reasons to obesity.
Question #14:
Should I move out of my dad's house?
Maybe this is one of those questions that in the end, only I can decide what to do, but here's my situation. Tell me what would you do.My family is extremely messed up and I'm 19 years old. I'm starting a new job, and I'll earn around $1,000 a month.
In short, my mom kicked me out for failing my first semester of college and not being able to go to community college right away because of finances. She sent me to my dad, who she raised me to hate.
My dad gladly took me in, so now it's him, me, and my 39 year old brother. My dad pays for everything....the house, my car, insurance, my cell phone, and he even gives me money to go shopping with friends. I don't have to pay for anything at all. Neither does my brother.
To an outsider, this may seem great, but I'm worried. I don't want to end up like my brother...39 and still at home with dad.
Aside from that, space is limited. My dad sleeps on the couch, letting me stay in his room that has no sheets on the bed or extra space for my clothes. I keep them all in suitcases. He also has a bit of a roach issue that I can't seem to solve no matter how much cleaning I do (They never clean up. NEVER)
I plan to work full time and go to community college part time next fall, but one question remains with me...
Should I move out and get my own apartment or something?
Pros: No bills to pay, free everything including money, no rules to follow since I'm not with my mother.
Cons: No responsibility could lead to me living at his house forever, not sure if I'll have enough money, don't want to hurt his feelings, roaches!, lack of space, lack of food (I don't eat because of the roaches), lack of comfort(I don't really sleep because I keep the lights on to make sure I can see in case of roaches)
What do you think? What should I do? Thank you.
Question #15:
if your child is under the age of 18 is it your responsibility to take care of them?
I'm only seventeen, i've had a job since i was sixteen and i have to pay my mom half my pay check to pay for my uses in her house. When i brought up this whole conversation today and told her that i didn't think i should have to pay half my check to her when she only drives me to work one day a week and doesn't pay for my cell phone bill, i do. she told me it wasn't her responsibility to take care of me. To me this doesn't make sense, if you had the kid shouldn't you be responsible for it? i would under stand if i was 18 and still living at home to pay for rent and all but i'm not old enough to move out even yet.Question #16:
How can i add excitement to this relationship? How can i make her miss me?
We have been dating for 4 months now and we are both 17 and about to turn 18, we are both very happy and we love eachother.I am more of the loud outgoing type and she's more on the shy quiet side. And the her longest relationship was a month and im the first guy she's said i love you to.Anyway i feel like theres not as much excitemement in our relationship as there was in the start when we were on our 1st date and both crushing etc. So i want to make her miss me so there might be some excitement for her, because we have had our cell phones activated for the past month and before that we only spoke to eachother at night on msn, or facebook and one time i was very busy and i wasnt on the computer for 3 days and when i signed on her sister messaged me" holy **** you shoulda seen her fac when you signed on"...she said she inhaled deep with a huge smile on her face. And my girlfriend talked to me as soon as i signed on. And that dosnt happen that often when we have our cell phone.
and most of the time after she has a sleepover, she wont text me the day after but maybe at night. Is that normal?
and our cell phones are down again starting tommorow morning, so what should i do???
any advice? anything i can do to make her miss me?
Question #17:

What do you think? What should I do? Thank you.
Question #18:
I lost my G1 cell phone and have insurance, what do I do now?
Is there anyway they can find my phone? I'd rather have my old phone then have to pay the deductible to get a new one. Who do I speak to about this? Do I go to Tmobile or do I go to the insurance company (I think it's called Auserion)?Question #19:
Since I have been told I'm cancer free, don't you think I should still have a follow up scan in the future?
Yesterday I got the happiest phone call of my life...my oncologist telling me that my stage 2B cervical cancer is gone and I had an excellent response to treatment, and they could not be happier with the results. Not just because the scan said so, but because I have very few side effects from the treatment as well and I am back up to full energy and living normal again just 3 1/2 months after getting max dose radiation and chemo. They make me feel really good about my progress, they always offer me pain pills but I don't have any pain and I don't need them which they act surprised about also. Anyways my cancer was spread into lymph nodes which scares the hell out of me...I have 2 side effects from treatment:
GI Issues...which pretty much keep me on a vegetarian/almost vegan (and sometimes grilled chicken) diet, or else my stomach turns in knots. I also have atypical acid reflux and colitis probably but it all beats cancer any day. It's manageable.
I also have pain in my hip joints when I sit down for too long and then stand up...I guess I know how it feels to have joints of a 90 year old now..but again its manageable and doesn't even bother me too much, doesn't hurt regularly or anything.
So based on all of this information they believe that I am totally clear of cancer and they only recommend 3 month check ups NOT including scans of any type, ever again. I feel like since it was in my lymph nodes and it was considered to be ADVANCED stage cancer, I should be monitored with scans to make sure it doesn't crop up somewhere else. I know it just takes 1 little cancer cell to be missed and the cancer could metastasize anywhere in my body. I want to make sure that if this happens, it would be caught on a scan before it became terminal or something :/
A close friend of mine (I met through ACS website) had the same cancer as me and finished treatment in September, now her cancer came back and it spread all through her cervix, uterus and tissues around it. They have to give her high dose chemo until the cancer shrinks enough that they can try to remove it and save her life, maybe. She is going to have a colostomy bag for the rest of her life and they are going to have to remove and rebuild her vagina as well, if she makes it. She's only 26 years old.
Anyways, she was supposed to have a PET scan 6 months after treatment which was in January but her insurance was cut off and she couldn't afford it. The doctor says it probably would've caught it before it went this far, but too late now. Now she will be lucky to live through this. I want to make sure the same thing doesn't happen to me.
Why do you think my oncologist would say I shouldn't have a PET scan in the future? I feel really uneasy about not having any type of scans done in the future. I don't think I would know if I had cancer again because I didn't notice anything too unusual the first time I had it.
Think I should ask for the scan, or go to a different doc if he refuses it?
She has been in pain but they said it was just from the radiation and they have also confirmed that she is filled with scar tissue as well. My scans have shown that I have very little damage whereas hers was extreme. But still to go from even 1 microscopic cell to cancer spread from the cervix to uterus and beyond (maybe even 1 kidney they think) and its only been 8 months since treatment ended...thats pretty fast isn't it for this to happen to her?
I want to sit back and relax and enjoy being cancer free but I just want to make sure I am getting the appropriate follow up care to protect the rest of my future. I just turned 28...I could live another 75 years and I don't want that cut short :/
yes monitoring with paps only...
and mine is a type that formed too high in the canal for a pap to catch until it got really bad...and it was really aggressive...so I really have no idea how long it was there but probably not very long. Also since its adenosquamous carcinoma its more unusual and hides from paps more than regular squamous cell carcinomas (those are about 90% of CC's)
Question #20:
