I was wanted to take the kids to see Cozumel, then I wanted to take them back to boat so we can hit Carlos and Charlies and Senior Frogs. I was wondering if they had camp carnival on port days or what the babysitting hours are on port day. Any help would be great! Thanks!

My students at school (I'm a teacher) said they would rather be dead than old. Why?

A Japanese student was sad. She said that in her family her old grandmother was respected and always asked for advice.

In Kenya, Africa where I grew up elders educated the young were in charge, and were respected The young people happyily looked forward to being respected elders

Here in Australia Aboriginal tribal elders were also respected.
A true-blood Aboriginal said young men travelled far, carried out brave deeds, did good deeds etc as part of life so that they could tell tales when they became elders even though life was tough. Now the Aboriginal full blood said that young half white men roamed city streets, drunk and useless. He said they seemed to want death and were incredibly dis-respectful to their elders.
There is a movement to get young aboriginals to return to their old ways Some Aboriginal towns have gone dry - banning all alcohol and have put the Grannies in charge

So since she absolutely won't eat the baby rice cereal (I tried giving her some for past 2 weeks already), I made her some pureed carrots (I boiled some organic carrots till tender and then pureed them really well in the blender) and she loved them. Also, hubby and I had some instant mashed potatoes yesterday with our dinner and I gave her a tiny taste and I could tell she really liked them becuz she didn't spit them out like she does with baby rice cereal. Is it ok to give her a little bit of prepared instant mashed potatoes once or twice a week followed by her bottle of formula or is this not a good idea? The potatoes did have a little bit of butter and milk in them but no salt. Also, since she loved the pureed carrots I want to continue giving that to her occasionally, so how much should I be giving her a day / week? I'm pretty sure at least the carrots are ok for her to eat since they are just plain organic pureed cooked carrots and nothing else. Can anyone advise please?

whats the procedure? i know that you sell stocks that you don't own and then you hope that the stock goes down so you can buy it low. but let's say for instance that i buy 200 shares of google at for example 500 and the stocks go down at let's say 490. now do i sell the stocks that i own? if not whose stocks am i selling and how many? and do i need to buy any stocks at all to be in game of "sell high and then buy low?"
thank you for going through the trouble of reading this.

Explanation for 'Busman's Holiday' :

"A busman's holiday in many respects is no holiday at all.

A number of people, most notably those with major responsibilities, simply dread the idea of taking vacations. They often feel mixed emotions about taking so much time away from their professional duties.

The result is usually called a busman's holiday, in which the person spends his or her vacation time doing the same activities as he or she does for a living."

Our pastor (for six years) went back to school because he felt called to be an apologist (He's friends with Josh MacDowell and contributes to the Tektonics apologist website - a lot)

He was getting a PhD in Comparative Religions and said that there is no evidence that Jesus Christ ever existed! Even the Josephus accounts were bogus, Early church Fathers forged documents to try to "add" Jesus to history, etc.

He is quitting the ministry and starting a collaboration with Richard Dawkins! It looks like our whole church ministry is dissolving and fifty people have already left!

He said that he thought he had all the answers concerning Noah's Flood, Biblical archaeology and Creationism, but that he was just flat wrong about all of it. He was one of the "holiest" men I ever met!
What do I do?

I'm writing a research paper, and I need a thesis statement (1-2 sentences) answering the question: "Why is the novel 'The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn' considered a classic?

The thesis needs to directly relate themes to the story so if you haven't read, please don't respond.

The thesis should be written only on a 9th grade level.

PLEASE!

I'm the classic "good girl" who doesn't drink, get into fights, etc. I'm dating/living with a Marine and he owns one rifle and two hand guns that he keeps locked in a room in our basement. He took me shooting at a range (my first time ever), and we had a good time. I had a few pictures taken throughout the day, and to cap off the day, we went home and he showed me how to rack the rifle, etc. (we dont have any ammo for it in the house) Again, a few fun pictures.
Naturally, I posted some of them on my blog and myspace. I then got tons of flack from my friends saying how terrible guns are and how terrible its going to make people think about me. Seeing as how both the blog and myspace are friend-only, I believe they are mistaken. Anyone who knows me knows I'm not going to go on a shooting rampage from a day with guns. I think they are just using their own opinions about the morals of firearms to judge my recreation.

Are the pictures appropriate or should I take them down?

When I put the computer "TO SLEEP" and then re-start it by touching mouse etc the CPU powers up, and the screen seems to partially come to life, but it stays black and blank. The power button on the screen which is orange in sleep mode, changes back to green, as it should be ,but it wont come on. If i switch the screen power button off at this stage and on again, then the screen lights up instantly. It is only a minor prob, but was just wondering if anyone has any idea why this should happen. As i said it only happens rarely. Usually it opens up fine. Thanks, Charlie
