1. Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone: remember the forbidden 3rd floor corridor that lead to the trapdoor where the Stone was hidden (and where Fang was, ready to bite anyone's head off)? Why was the door so badly protected that it could be opened with just Alohomora (a simple spell, at least to older students)? And don't say it's because our first-year heroes had to be able to get in or there wouldn't have been an adventure...

2. Why does Madam Hooch have yellow eyes?

Only three days to answer...

My year old shepard mix dog has been throwing up since 4pm yesterday. He is throwing up white and clear bile... and I am not sure what to do. The vet is really my last resort because he gets very nervous and a little aggressive toward the vet when we go.

Last night he was throwing up every hour or so. Sometimes nothing would come out. I'd say he only threw SOMETHING up 5 times last night but he was gagging. And he has thrown up maybe 4 times today. He seems to start coughing/gagging when he gets worked up or barks...

Help PLEASE!

Let me first state that I think the implication of the settlement is tragic. That professional clergy violating a position of such immense trust could be found guilty of such inhumane criminal behavior is beyond belief.

That said, I'm uncertain what to think of the $660M settlement to the 500+ victims of the criminal activity. I believe firmly that those who were responsible should be held accountable... via prison sentences. However, I fail to see how a monetary settlement helps the victims of violent crimes.

I need to write a 700 word account that speculates what might happen to the four Earth systems if the heat loss from inside the Earth reduced by half. the account will need to explain:what the four earth systems are, how the systems interact with each other , what might happen to each system in this scenario and how likely this scenario is. You can either use the numbered referenced system or the 'Bradshaw et al 1998'type of system with an individual reference to each citation in the reference list.

Seems there is always enough "money" when it comes to people stuff.
If you are short, charge it, borrow or remortgage your house.
"No money" doesn't cut it when it comes to YOUR dog!

When I was in middle school, a teacher assigned us a book on domestic violence. This would have been a book that was in publication prior to 1994 definitely and more than likely prior to 1992.

I have searched for years (amazon and google) and I'd like to use it for teens likely to enter abusive relationships. The book is written on one side from her point of view. The girl is in high school and what her experiences/emotions were while dating this guy. Then you flip the book over to the back cover. That side is written His Story. How he entered the blind rage and couldn't stop if he wanted to, how he needed therapy.

It was written as if a true story, kind of diary format, from a teenage perspective. It is probably less than 100 pgs and must contain both his side and her side. The earliest it would have been published is 1985s, latest 1994.

Gastric bypass, tummy tuck, & Lap Band surgery. What are the benefits & the risks, & which one is the safest? I know my oldest sister died from complications from a tummy tuck, & I heard that Gastric Bypass is bad, too. But I was told that Lap Band was the best & the safest. & is it true that when a woman has a Cesarean Section, that's an AUTOMATIC tummy tuck? That's what my twin sister told me, & she had 3 C-sections with all her kids.

When I was living in New York, the doctor strongly emphasized & advized me to get Lap Band surgery, & he told me that Medicaid & Medicare would pay for it. I'm like 175 lbs. overweight for my height. & also, he said that after I've lost my desired weight, I can get the lap band taken out at any time. & he said I'd lose 100 lbs. Would I lose 100 lbs. instantly with that or would it take time?

**Sorry for so many questions but I need to get all of them answered.

Terrible situation. I was backing out at the mall as was the lady across from me. Istopped after pulling out 3 ft as I saw her coming. She kept coming and coming despite honking at her. She hit my bumper. Damage was minimal, just scratches on her car, nothing to mine. She insisted on filing a report, so I called the police.

Police office shows up, mad as hellll he has to take such a stupid report. It was obvious. Three days later I view report and it blamed both drivers, despite it being 110% her fault! Stated we were both doing 15 mph??? and damges were $1000 per vehicle. I know he did this to screw my perfect driving record and insurance. How do I fight this?

Now other parties insurance is calling me asking me all these questions about the incident and seemingly trying to blame me for it?

What to do here about both the insurance, as well as police report? Now I'm going to have to report an accident when I get auto insurance? I have a perfect record now.
