I'm writing a novel and I am looking for names. I don't want them to be too complicated that the readers aren't going to be able to pronounce. I also want the names to mean, or relate to the characters that I have created. I want to know where I can find these kind of names. I also want to know is it ok for a writer to create their own name and meaning for the name that they created? I also would like to know what is the strategy for finding new names. Help will be aprreciated.Thank you!

I just got a kitten the other day. He has been neutered, so im guessing hes at least 6 months but no more than a year. I feed him kitten chow twice a day. He seems to have diarrhea, for the past two days of owning him. Could it be that he is adjusting to my home and is scared? Or could it be something bigger? The vet checked him out and said he was fine.

At night I notice he starts acting very differently. He jumps and runs around faster than he does during the day. I dont know how to stop him from doing this.Could this also be a reason for his upset stomach?

Any help me and Willie would appreciate!! Any other tips on raising a kitten let me know also. Thanks so much.

for people who don't need help, then totally ignore the people who are really here and need help? It just seems strange to me that questions like what did you eat for dinner? gets more responses than can you help me with my math homework?

Im 5 feet tall and come in at 145 currently. I know that is way over where i should be at 5 feet, but no matter what I do I havent weighed less than 130 in years. I am comfortable at 130 (even 125 if possible). A few years ago I went from 160 to 130 in 2 months without even trying. It almost seemed like it happened overnight because I hadnt noticed that I was losing weight until I had gone all the way down to 130. I would love to do it again, but because I wasnt on a specific diet when I lost the weight, I dont know how to make it happen again.

i breastfed my son for as long as i could. i eventually started him on formula and he is thriving. not only is he well fed, he is healthy, smart and well taken care of. i am not ignorant, selfish, or uneducated. i've read all the studies about formula feeding vs. breastfeeding and i feel like many women do the same when they find out they're expecting. my point is, why is it anyone's busines what a woman feeds her baby? as long as a baby is getting the proper nutrition, how can you honestly belive it is your job to make snide remarks about how that baby is being fed? i am happy for those who are able to breastfeed, but not all women can or want to. and you know what? that is OUR choice, not yours. i am sick and tired of women acting all high and mighty about how they feed their munchkin. it's even worse when men get into the debate as if they have ever had milk coming out of their boobs! does anyone else feel this way? if you are a breastfeeding "nazi", why do you think it's your place

Let's say that the law demanded you to do something which was against your moral belief. The government had gone all out and was openly corrupt (not saying it's exactly dandy as it is now). How would you react? Would you go along with unjust laws? How would you act out? What could possibly be done when you feel/are powerless?

I was part of a Credit counseling group, Was making payments each month,they got rid of some debt as the funds built up . Upon doing this I started receiving letters from a lawyer for MBNA saying i will be sued. They took it to court and now frozen my bank account. The lawyer wants $8300 in full in order to unfreeze my bank account ,and will start garnishing my paycheck. They say they will not unfreeze my account until its paid in full and they can hold the acct for up to one year. Obviously I can not afford to pay it in full but was willing to pay the lawyer $500 a month till the debt is relieved and to have my account opened immediatly. They stated it is too late to make payments. Upon taking the info to ignore the letters from the credit counseling company,it has now biten me. I no longer deal with the counseling company. Anyone have any ways I can take care of this matter? Is bankruptcy a good choice. My total debt is about 15000 and about 50% of my yearly income?

A stressfull school year passed and the summer started. My moms brother was dying so on July 13th she went to europe to visit her familly and dying brother. She asked me if i wanted to go and i said no, because i wanted to stay and chill with my dad. So as soona s my mom leaves these people who are very far related come and drop of this old man. Yeah its as spontaneous as it sounds. He just has a bypass surgery a month ago, and had a stroke a long time ago, and he is like 65 to 70 years old. They took advantage of the fact me and my dad dont have the courage to say bno. So they dropped him off, got to my country over seas called and said theyll be back in 40 days. The guy is the dirtiest, dumbest, laziest, 455 out there. Me and my dad would have eaten out everyday, and stuff but my dad has to cook, and were both mad. He cna hold in his anger, but i cant. And i always think about it and cant sleep. Also, my neighbors who are complete idiots and have no common sense bother me

Is there any reason why I couldn't bake it in a 8" or 9" cake pan? Would I have to change anything other than baking time?

I am thinking of marrying a divorced father with custody of his 3 children. I do not have any children of my own and want to get the real scoop of what its like stepping into the role of instant- mother. The kids, 8,7 &4 are sweet and love me a lot but I'm sure that can all change once I "invade their territory." I'm hoping someone in my position can tell me what its really like. Thanks!

I have an older brother that has a program on his computer that can find out what website i am currently on. and, you know the History toolbar on top of the internet? well, the history from that toolbar transfers into my older brother's internet history instead. In other words, the history on my internet transfers automatically and immediately into my brother's computer. and he can do the same with my chatting online. he can see what i'm typing to send to my friends, and what my friends send back. How do i get my history back from my brother? i don't want my brother's computer to be knowing what websites i go to. So the basic question is: How do i start getting history inside my History toolbar again? or how do i put some kind of private force-field around my internet session? I NEED SOMEONE'S HELP. IT'S SO ANNOYING!!!! SOMEONE OUT THERE, THERE'S A PERSON IN NEED OF INTERNET ASSISTANCE!!!
