What would go nice wthi this dress?
http://www.bluefly.com/ABS-black-silk-ch iffon-one-shoulder-long-dress/cat480442/ 302594601/detail.fl – it isn’t quite as elegant but I would like something to go over my shoulder probably and can’t figure what’ll go nicely. Should it go with open-toe shoes or close ones?
The shoes kinda look like these one here but more velvety material. http://www.amazon.com/Dance-Shoes-Ballro om-Dancing-MICHELLE/dp/images/B000MTSRFY /ref=dp_image_x_0?ie=UTF8&s=shoes&am p;img=0&color_name=x
It just seems odd with nothing over the shoulders….
I don’t know how to wear heels that’s why I am going for the wedge ones….
there’s a y missing on the link for the dress – http://www.bluefly.com/ABS-black-silk-ch iffon-one-shoulder-long-dress/cat480442/ 302594601/detail.fly
My dress is a similar design but not as expensive

What on Earth is a Shawshank Redemption?
My thoughts as you asked is that the people in here have not been loved.
They are the filth and disgrace of humanity.
That is my thoughts
The left overs
The gone byes
The losers of the earth
The pathetic disgrace of the universe
The idling babbling rejects of the human race
The incoherent retards of life
The left behind

WELCOME HOME YOU PATHETIC LOSERS!
Where is your podium you are all speaking from down here in the pits of the crap with the pigs and dogs.

I feel…depressed. Lifeless. Empty?
Soo..this is definetely weird for me. I never thought I’d be the one making a post like this but especially lately, I’ve been feeling depressed. It all started last year..I went from the small, comfortable middle school where I knew everybody and I got good grades. I graduated number 3 and I just loved my friends. Then, when I entered highschool, I felt like I was thrown into the lion’s den. I hardly ever saw the people that were my actual good friends. I’ve had many acquaintances in the past and they always come and go but I always had a select few who stuck. I also have encountered people who are just reckless and have the perfect "I don’t give a f*ck" attitude. The older guys were just losers who were bored and were very openly critical, thinking their the hottest things ever when they’re just plain ugly. I just felt so out of place and so distant from my old friends. I soon began to became depressed where throughout the whole entire day, I would feel extremely tired and just unable to communicate with people. Last year, I become really self-conscious and I felt so unwanted by everyone/anyone. I pretty much felt like a piece of crap and everything just went downhill. I was falling and I couldn’t catch myself. It was a feeling I’ve never experienced before and my life was dying, piece by piece right before my eyes. I was only half of what I use to be and now this year, the feelings have entered once again, even stronger than before. I can honestly say I don’t give a sh*t about ANYTHING anymore. Nothing..my grades are totally slipping and I don’t care. I know on the inside I’m telling myself, "wth is wrong with you? get off your ass and do some work." I hardly have done my homework at all this year so far. I know deep down I do care and I WANT to care soo bad but my initial reaction to school is just "F*ck this stupid sh*t." I don’t want to correct my mistakes because I don’t want to visit the realization. The realization of that I am completely failing at life and doing everything I told myself I WOULDN’T be doing plus more. The only thing I’m not doing wrong is getting involved in drugs which I’m too emotionless and dead to even think about doing. I feel completely lifeless and tired. Recently, I’ve felt especially empty..I’m never depressed. Just empty…Today was not even joking, this was my worst day in a really long time.Let’s just say I felt like skipping(first time ever here people, just to let you know. I went with my instinct) and the g*d damn lady snitched me to my school. My school found out and when I came back..blehhh. It was just horrible, never been so ashamed in my whole life. Pretty much, I can’t deal with getting yelled or even scolded at. I feel embrassed enough when the teacher tells me to stop talking in the middle of class but then everyone found out I skipped the first two periods? I just couldn’t handle it so what I did for lunch was just go into the bathroom and sulk. I don’t cry anymore..I’m done with crying and tears. I’ve done that too much last year. What I’m pretty much telling you is that I’m so done with these emotions that I really don’t have them anymore and I don’t care about anything. Friends, family, school…I really just want to stay in my room all day to the leisure of my own comfy bed. I wanna sleep my high school years away. My parents also don’t help at all..They just see me as the bratty teen and doesn’t motivate me at all. They don’t really step in on anything and for all you know, I could be doing drugs and getting stoned out my mind everyday. Only then would they probably do something. Just trust me on this..I love them and they’re good people but..they’re not exactly the parents that push their kids to the best of what they can be. They just expect their kids to be hard workers and have drive. I don’t have that..I never really had but this year and last year, it all dried up and disappeared. Pretty much I’m just asking…am I depressed? Is there anyway I can talk to a therapist or someone along those lines..privately and secretly though? The last thing I need is for everyone to know..
If you go to see your local doctor you can talk with them about your feelings. Doctors have to keep anything you say confidential. I think you will feel a lot better with yourself if you just talk to someone about this. If they are unable to help then you can ask them to refer you to a specialist. Good luck

I think "So I Married An Axe Murderer" is pretty hilarious
Go with some 90s films as well like Tommy Boy, Black Sheep, Wayne’s World 1 and 2. Some Mockumentaries are funny too, like This is Spinal Tap, Best in Show, etc. Def. watch The Hangover!!

March 20, 2010
|
IMDB rating: 5.30 Plot: This is the not-so-legendary tale of the five not-so-brave Spartans who didn’t go to Thermopylae, but instead were assigned to guard the secret goat path and ran away at the first sign of trouble. They were the laughing stock of the entire Spartan army. All they had to do was guard a lousy goat path. And they failed. Claudius, Darryl, Demetrius the Blind, Shazaam and Testicleese must embark on a hero’s journey to redeem themselves and become true warriors armed with only a sharpened carrot, a rolling pin and an incredible sense of guilt. Smartly funny and based entirely on historical fact (allegedly), ‘305′ proves that even the biggest losers get lucky sometimes. |

Why isn't my video getting any more views?
I uploaded a video on youtube a couple weeks ago. It had 305 days on the second day I uploaded it and it still has 305 views. Even when I play it on another computer when I’m not signed in, the view count still doesn’t change. Why is this and how can I fix it?
You cant fix it because the youtube server takes time to count it. So dont worry, youtube is counting

What do you think of this text? Typos aside – not a native speaker?
Father Riley, the confessor of the monastery was looking out of the narrow window, his warm, blue eyes filled with sorrow as he was listening the discussion taking place in the old and Spartan decorated room.
"It is my conclusion that sister Dolores is suffering from a very peculiar form of schizophrenia. She seems convinced that she is being visited by night by this demonic entity she calls Yasir. I would recommend getting professional help", Mr. Gonzales, the psychiatrist they had sent for concluded.
"And what exactly do you mean professional help", Mother Superior cut in.
"It’s been almost a month, now, and she is getting more and more hysterical. You should know that, as days go by, her situation is getting worse. If I had known at the right time." the psychiatrist’s eyes fixed themselves accusatory on the priest’s back.
The priest felt the gaze and with a sigh turned around, pulling off his round glasses.
"You know that I have sworn to keep the secrecy of everything I hear in the confessional.", he replied softly.
Mr. Gonzales fought the urge to jump off the chair and yell. The poor girl had had to go hysterical during the mass for him to be called, and, when Mother Superior had asked for him professional help, the sickness had already began engulfing her. Taking deep breaths to calm himself, he added in a tone laced with sarcasm:
"And you are not convinced she is having hallucinations either."
"My son, in my world, what often seems impossible is not. Blind people see, deaf hear, and dead people resurrect through the sheer will of our Lord."
"I am a good Christian, father," the psychiatrist brutally cut in," and I do not dare to question the miracles. But now, in this century.I find it hard to believe that something akin to miracle is happening. A daemon at night visiting a nun ..excuse me for saying so, Mother Superior, but this girl must be having only the natural urges. I am even surprised she hadn’t experienced them so far. She is only 21, it is only normal for her to have erotic dreams, even if she is currently a nun. One cannot escape nature."
"I wish that were true", Mother Superior spoke, a tinge of regret in her voice, "That would have been a fortunate case. You see, doctor, nobody ever forced her to remain here. Never. But we are the only family she has ever had, and I know she loves us dearly, for we too love her. Dolores is the younger of us, and unfortunately, we could offer her little of the youth’s joys. I have taken her to the town a few times, but she is as skittish as a mare, especially when it comes to men. I must confess I feel guilty about it, for I have a feeling she does not belong in a monastery. I would have loved if she were to get a family of her own, yet, unfortunately, it seems that we have not prepared her enough for the outer world." She finished in a gentle voice.
"Yes, we have discussed these things before, and, once again we don’t seem to come to a mutual conclusion. I have discusses to my superiors and we have decided to move her into a Mental Institution!"
"You can’t do that!" the father’s voice was angry. "She is not crazy! Putting her in there will only make things worse!"
"She thinks she has sex with a daemon! Really, father, I can’t believe you actually think she’s telling the truth. We followed her, remember? We followed her for a week, day and night and nothing out of the ordinary has happened!"
"I must say I agree with father Riley on this matter. Dolores will remain here, and we shall look after her as well as we can. Taking her out of her home to forcibly move her to a mental facility will do nothing but further damage."
"I am truly sorry that you feel this way" the psychiatrist rummaged through his briefcase then stood up, handling a file to the Mother superior. "These are the papers, I have all the clearances I need. As I depart I shall take her with me to Madrid. You are, of course allowed to visit her every time."
"But.."
"I am sorry, but I will save this poor girl’s mind. I assure you that once I’m done, she will be a happy young woman.", he concluded. "Now, if you’ll excuse me, I must go and see what she is doing."
As the door closed with a low hiss behind him, Mother Superior spoke in a tired voice, rubbing her forehead:
"What have we done?"
I think it’s very interesting.

I really need help with my life!! Please help me!?
Okay so I am living the opposite of my dreams. Three key things:
1. My family is not doing so good, economically and personally.
2. One of my family members basically doesn’t know how to live.
3. My old BFF is betraying me and a bunch of other people.
Now more detail:
1.
My mom yells at my grandmother a whole lot because she tells people stuff. I might not blame her, but my mom’s personality is bad in my opinion. She gets real upset when she sees something she doesn’t like and when it isn’t done HER way. It seems that everything has to be HER way. She’s wearing the pants of the house, to tell you the truth. I sort of want her to be more calm, without forcing her or really pushing it, if you know what I mean. I don’t want her to get angry so much because it really wrecks the house and breaks the family apart further. She’s also pushing me to grow up too fast, physically, and she wants the "perfect" child.
2.
My uncle is stubborn sometimes, and it seems to be that he doesn’t know how to raise a child. He’s raising two girls, which one I have to "babysit". My mom helps him I guess way too much, and I think that he doesn’t know how to live at all. Cleaning, painting and all that stuff– you name it, she will help him. I even missed a braces appointment just because of my uncle. Wow. Now I have to keep my braces on longer. I seriously think this should stop. So basically my mom is not showing him how to live, just doing it all for him.
3.
My best friend who is older than me by one year because we were in a combo class, basically betrayed me. She and her friend were making fun of me and calling me these names. Bullying basically. How do I get her back or get back at them? It’s not fair at all. She’s ruining my life, and I really don’t know how to live without worrying. At first, I thought that I could live my life happily without this wreck, but, of course, NOT. Please help!
If you could at least answer 1 of my following problems, I thank you very greatly.
If you could answer all of them and it really helps, 10 pts to you! I hope you can help.
Oh yeah, and I need tips on this guy. He’s like my good friend, but I think I really like him. What do I do?
Wow. You really have a predicament on your hand, don’t you? Alright.
1. I know you said you don’t want to force it, but I’d suggest talking to her. My dad is similar. He’s extremely short tempered, and he sometimes didn’t talk to my entire family for a week. During these times, I would always think, "What’s going to happen? Are mom and dad going to get a divorce?" So, I talked to my dad. I’m not going to lie, it was by FAR the hardest thing that I’ve ever done in my entire life. He got angry, and disagreed with everything. However, the other day, he came up to me, after a horrible day at work, and talked to me. He said I was right. It made me feel great. But, if you were going to talk to your mom, then I’d really only do it when she has time. Not when she’s in a rush.
2. This uncle problem might be something you express your opinion’s about in your conversation with your mom. It is his life however, and your mom is basically controlling it. Missing your braces appointment is really ridiculous. You are her daughter, and you are her priority, not your uncle. Your uncle should not have had children if he doesn’t know how to take care of them; let alone himself. I really do believe that maybe even talking to him. To be totally honest, talking is one of the best ways to relieve problems. "Sticks and stones will break my bones, but words can break my heart." You’ve heard that quote right? Well, it can also work vice-versa. Words can mend hearts as well. Not actions. I’m not a pacifist either…I play Call of Duty. So trust me when I say that words really work much better than actions, and words is the key to hearts.
3. I don’t feel that your friend is being fair, and I think you should watch the link below:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yu4Qs1njM 3c (just copy and paste link into the address bar) I really don’t think that you should care what your friend thinks. I don’t think It’d be right to get back at her. Simply ignore her. Now, I understand that that is MUCH easier said than done. I had this same problem, and it was with a girl. She changed so much, that eventually I took her number out of my phone book, and ignored any texts from her. If she’s not going to be nice to me, why does she deserve my respect? There was this other guy that I hung with, but he wasn’t my best friend. However, with the group of guys he hung out with, I was able to find a really awesome dude! We hang out all the time. Sometimes, finding new people is the best thing. Now, again, this is easier said than done. But hopefully the video above helped you to identify that it shouldn’t matter what others think of you because life is extremely short, and you want to live it the best you possibly can.
For the guy issue:
I’m a guy so I’m really bad with relationship stuff. Ha, but I do think you should go for it. Start by asking him who he likes, etc. Then, eventually, he might tell one of his friends, and then he’ll tell someone, and the chain keeps going. Then, one of your friends will hear it, and then she/he will share the information with you. If he likes you, then go for it. However, if he doesn’t, then move on. I know some pretty bad chicks that I’ve liked, and they haven’t liked me. We’re good friends now. So, in the end, I think that It’ll all work out. Just don’t stay in your shell!!
I really hoped that I helped. I could care less about the point thing, but I really just hoped that I helped you and your problems. Let me know how it turns out!
Good Luck!
–Alex

Cost of rail trip from New York to San Francisco in 1870s?
I want to know how much it cost, in money and time, for a traveler wanting to make the cross-country trip by train from New York to San Francisco back in the 1870s, before dining cars and Pullman cars, when trains had to stop for the night at Harvey Houses or similar establishments. How much did the train fare cost? How long did it take? How much did food cost? Any information, including links to websites or books about rail travel in that era, would be most appreciated. Thanks!
