I was out driving today (in San Pedro, LA County) and saw a poster in a popular fast-food restaurant featuring three soft-drink-like slushies - one was a Mountain Dew one, not sure what kind the other two were. Sounds good, but I can't remember which fast food place I saw the sign! Does anyone know?? Thanks :)

I am Muslim
1. Kill me & call it “Collateral Damage”
2. Imprison me & call it “Security Measure”
3. Exile my people in masse & call it “New Middle East”
4. Steal my resources, Invade my land, Alter my leadership &call it “Democracy”

 Why a Jew can grow his beard in order to practice his faith
 But when Muslim does the same, he is an extremist and terrorist!

 Why a nun can be covered from head to toe in order to devote herself to God
 But when Muslim does the same she's oppressed

 When a western women stays at home to look after her house and kids she is respected because of sacrificing herself
 But when a Muslim woman does so by her will, they say, "She needs to be liberated"!

 Any girl can go to university wearing what she wills and have her rights and freedom
 But when Muslim wears a Hijab they prevent her from entering her university!

 When a child dedicates himself to a subject he has potential
 But when he dedicates himself to Islam he is

I'm starting my senior year of high school and I want to major in journalism when I go to college. I live in New York and I want to go somewhere somewhat close to home, so basically within the Northeastern part of the US. I know that everyone is going to say NYU and BU, but my GPA is only a 3.0 (in other words, a B) so I clearly can't get into those schools. I took AP English my Junior year and I'm taking it again this year, but I don't know if that will make that big of a difference. If anyone knows of any colleges with good journalism programs in my part of the country please let me know. Thanks.

Off and on, I've been working for the past three years. One month on four months off. Not really a routine but had little free time and lazy. I started working out hard three months ago. I added bench press to my routine. Flat incline and decline. I would take the bar all the way down to my chest. I thought that was the best form and most productive. However, as I used heavier weight I felt a bad strain in my should/ chest area. At first I thought it was a good pain and meant the muscle was getting bigger. But i think i was actually hurting my rotator cuff. I have made a lot of gains and want to keep going. I would stop for a month and feel better but when i get back on the bench it would hurt again. Is there anyway to avoid rotator cuff pain? I don't want to tear it completely and be out for months. Is a little pain normal? If i strengthen my rotator cuff muscles will this solve my bench problem?

Right now I have long hair that is not too long or short. My hair is a split or parted with a line showing in the middle. I see a lot of guys having short hair these days and having short hair is too original nowadays aka spikey style.

The truth is that illegals will take any jobs they can get..

You can be educated and skilled and lose a good job and have to take any job you can get in the US unstable economy. At least for a time. Many people have been through it. Illegal populations are much higher in some places like in the southwest and they are more competition for "any" jobs there. And black americans and hispanic americans are the most affected by competition with illegals for the "any" jobs.

So I think we can can call this a myth. And say that there is a real problem with this and that some US citizens are really hurt by illegal immigration.

I don't have an answer. I do know that it will not be solved by big arrests and deportions of illegals or building a wall on an imaginary line. Those are simple minded ideas that appeal to some people on an emotional level. And to hate on illegals is bad and stupid.

Any ideas for this?

Specifically, does Germany have any civilization prior to that which the Romans introduced? (Something beyond wooden huts and basic metallurgy).

My sister is 16 years old. About 3 months ago she attempted to commit suicide by taking an o/d of a various number of medications. Prior to that my mother said she had had been cutting herself.

She gave no reason why she tried to kill herself, we couldn't find one.

Two nights ago she was home with my Dad (on Fathers Day) when she stormed out of the house saying that she hated him. She wouldn't tell anyone where she was going or where she was. Tehre were going to be about 10 of us getting together for Fathers Day dinner which didn't happen because everyone was way to concerned that she wasn't hurting herself again.

When she finally came home she talked with me. Basically I told her what she had caused and that it was completely unacceptable to put that many people through so much worry. During the whole talk (me talking, her listening) she was just grinning and seemed to be happy about it all.

Any suggestions about what family and I can do to try and stop this from going on?

Do you raise your children to be the same? or do you let them experiment in the different cultural diversities? I am NOT picking on emos. I was a HIPPIE when I was young. Just curious.

I recently had three people very close to me pass away. I want to get a tattoo, symbolizing my remembrance for them, but because they were all so very different, I cant figure out how to do it in ONE tattoo. Does anyone know any symbols that mean "always remember" or any symbols for life? Any help would really be appreciated. I'm very open minded so if you have any ideas that you think would be helpful, feel free to send them. I'm looking for creativity as well, as I'm not big on tattoos because I feel they are all too alike now-a-days. Thanks for any ideas.

Would you go into a restaurant and order something to eat if you didn't have anyone with you? Or, would you just go home and have a bowl of cereal or something?

If you did go out to eat by yourself, would you insist on a table in the corner, in the back? Or would you feel confident enough to sit at a table for 2 in the center of the room?

Would you dawdle over your coffee afterwards, or pay the bill and get out of there as fast as you possibly can?

As for me, I go out alone fairly often, and enjoy it very much. I had a friend who would never go into a place alone, even if she was half starved & couldn't go home for hours.

I find it utterly amazing how these kids show blatant disregard for rules and regulations. What's more amazing is that people actually answer the question for them. No one is doing any one favors by answering questions due to laziness.

Should this problem be addressed more vehemently and what can be done about it?

think about it, how is someone in the top ranks of GE get their message to the news desk at the nightly news of nbc? i think if it was that obvious then more people would be speaking out but honestly you dont see immelt whispering in brian williams' boss to not talk about so and so. im sure it happens to a degree but i want to know SPECIFICALLY how, not some stupid conspiracy theory made up by liberals who can only say a b c happens without telling me exactly HOW.
