The date is between the end of summer and the beginning of fall. In choosing my wedding colors I'd like to have an eggplant and mauve color scheme. Are they too dark for the beginning of the fall season? I'd love to have eggplant calla lilies, white and mauve colored roses as my flowers.

Why does the US Dept of Justice think it has got the right to investigate BAE's deal with the Saudis? So what if millions of pounds were paid to the Prince to secure a deal for our fighter planes? Big deal! That is the way business is done in the middle east -everyone knows that - call it commission, call it a bonus or call it a bribe or a bung if you want. That's the way to clinch a deal and if we hadn't done it you can be damn sure the French or any other EU country would. It may not be ethical but it's called the real world.

So now the Yanks are sticking their noses in. Why don't they start by investigating and cleaning up their own corrupt businesses first - like why Halliburton gets all the contracts for the reconstruction of Iraq (could it have somthing to do with their ex CEO Dick-head Cheney by any chance??), or their imposition of import tariffs to protect thier steel industry which breaks international trade laws, not to mention Worldcom and Enron et al. Get lost America!

Deke invited me over for some Greco-Roman wrestling, and I accepted. But when I showed up at the door, he was covered in Pepto Bismol head to toe, except his genitalia and rear--they were covered in chunky peanut butter. I saw behind him two young Vietnamese boys that were dressed like Santa's little helpers, but they were blindfolded and gagged. I fled.

Should I alert the authorities?

I had a couple jobs, but I was told if I stayed home and took care of the house, pool, and yard he'd pay me. the fact that I lived,slept, ate, showerd there and took care of everything was payment enuff. Now he has decided he wants me gone, maybe hes found someone else or for someother reason he wants me out, I have no job, no money, and nowhere to go, I left but now I can't even get my stuff, locks are changed. What are my rights?

In 1948, Margaret Mead wrote that American society over-rewarded male positions. Female envy of that role, "reflects an overvaluation of men's achievments and a devaluation of the significance of the female role as wife and mother."

When the home is undervalued, "women will cease to enjoy being women, and men will cease to value women."

By this argument, one way to encourage misogyny is to undervalue housewives. Two questions come to mind:

1) Do women, on the whole, seem happier or more depressed since these changes of valuation? (If you agree that men's achievments in the workforce have been overvalued.)
2) Does the devaluation of "women's roles" lead to misogyny? Do men seem to respect women more or less when running the household is seen as unimportant?

(quotes are from Mead's "Male and Female", pg. 85)

Many believe that women should be included, so, should we also include gays in the draft, should it be reinstated? Why or why not? Feel free to use the 'equality' argument here as well.;..

How much will it cost me to get legal help & court procedings to establish more contact with my daughter. At the moment I have her alternate weekends from Friday at 6pm through to Sunday at 10am but in reality it's only the Saturday that we get chance to do anything as Friday she has tea then bed & Sundays after bath & breakfast it time to go home, I'd like to extend this to 6pm on Sunday. At the moment my ex partner will not let me have her to celebrate birthdays or special days even when they fall on my weekend. I'm not allowed to have her any extra time but have to give up my days if ex has a family event she wants to attend. I love my daughter very much & although only two she very clearly enjoys being with me. I want to ramain part of her life but it is heartbreaking that my ex can change the goalposts with no consideration of our precious time together. I'm excluded from Christmas, Easter & all holiday periods. I was present when she was registered. Where do I stand? Please help!

I found Shelley Yates a credible speaker, aparently a sceptic with an incredible experience. Especially interesting to me was her her reference to 2012, which is the year that the preChrisianity Mayans prophecise great change for this earth.
