Hey Everybody,

I had really long hair, past my shoulders close to the middle of my back. I loved it, but I live in the South and the summer is coming and it is getting really hot. My sister is a beautician so anytime I want to get my hair cut or anything she will make time for me. Well about 2 weeks ago I went and got my hair cut a little past my chin. It's not ugly, but I want my long hair back so I am thinking about getting extensions. I would go to my sister but she doesn't do them. I have a consoltation to see how much its going to cost at this really good salon near where I live on Friday, so I will find out the cost then. My question is how much are good hair extensions worth? Is it alot? Also is it worth it, how long do they last, and is it going to ruin my hair? Also what are the best kinds to get?

Thank you so much for all of your answers, I really do appreciate it and hope that I will be able to afford them.

I'm about 34/35 weeks pregnant, and I've been having Braxton Hicks contractions for 3 days now, but they aren't just a couple on and off, they start around 8 every night and go on until about midnight.

They aren't painful as such, but twinges "down there"...

Is this normal or should I get it checked out? Has it happened to anyone else? I have an appointment for a scan and check up on Friday, should I just wait until then?

Thanks!

Mr. James,

My name is Annie Nelson, a mother of 2 youngmen such as yourself.

My question is in relations to your personal life, while watching a Cavalier's game the announcer directed attention to a young lady in the stands and identified her as your fiancee, I noticed that she was pregnant.

What is going on with you? Young men are taught to grow up, establish a family (marriage), and then have children.

Is the cart being put before the horse? You as a n example to the young black men should know better.

What are you saying to them by your example? it's OK.

I am a concerned mother of 2 young black men who are sport advocates.

Any questions, I can be reached on 216-543-1253.

Annie Nelson

my neighbor considers me a friend, as for myself i could live without her in my life. her daughter had a child at 15 then again at 18 and now twins at 21. coming from a bad home and being bounced around the system i've tried to help but the more i know about them and see i can't help feel these children deserve better. an unkept house- laundry,mopping, vaccuming and so on are not at the top of thier to do list. grandma is drugged most of the time, grandpa is a drunk, both chain smoke with the knowledge that the 1st 2 children have severe ashma and sinus problems. all the adults act as though one will do more than the other so they do nothing. i have tried to avoid the whole mess but now i don't think i can. they have been investigated before to no avail. the oldest child is now 5 and has tried to stab her mothers newest man in the back. how do you get involved without getting in to deep

First off I am a boy in 11th grade ..... (just so you know)
I am always being made fun of for basically evreything. The way I talk, the things I say (because I try to be nice to basically evreyone and stick up for others). I dress in nice clothes aka (holister, aero, AE etc.). People just choose me to pick on for no reason. I dont bother anyone, I mostly keep to myself. People call me gay and a f*g all the time. People just do not like me. Even on the bus they make fun of me while I "listen" to my ipod, they 're so stupid, they laugh and always look at me all the time. What can I do to make people like me more? And get them to stop making fun of me?

So im diabetic and 38 weeks pregnant. I every so often have growth ultra sounds to see how big the baby is. About 3 weeks ago they did one and they said she was close to 6lbs. Today I go and they say about 6 lbs 4 ozs. SO they are basically saying she only has gained about 4-8 ozs in 3 weeks. Has anyone ever had a growth ultra sound, and then deliver and the weight be completly off?? Please!!

let me first say that free energy is real and possible and i would explain it but you can just as easily find the info on your own. my question is one of deeper thought and i hope only serious responders answer. with america's economy being dependent on oil and fossil fuels would the advent of free energy signal the fall of the latest super-power. free energy, which would nearly instantly make every one richer by reducing the costs of absolutely everything hinder the progress of a capitalistic economy. would it make the nations of the world more equal, would it end wars over oil and natural resources. would it end the farce of hydrogen cars of the future-it takes a barrel of oil to make a barrel of hydrogen. wouldn't we all be better off for it.

p.s. can we learn to have compassion for the lives around us and learn to accept each other for who and what we are. we are all allowed a finite amount of time on this earth in these bodies and it seems we spend an awful lot of time wasted.

He broke up with me more than a month ago. He said there will be a chance that we will be together again but he needs time and space to himself for the moment. I still trust that he's not cheating on me and doesn't have another new love interest.

We still text each other quite often these days and he seems quite concerned about me. What is he thinking?
