Recently I've been thinking about changing my boring name, Sue, to the name Scottie-Anne. I've been thinking through this a lot but I can't come to a decision. I've talked to my mother and she said that she is okay with me changing my name, but I can't decide. What do you think? Do you think Scottie-Anne is a good name? If not, what name do you recommend?

I was watching a television program about a series of unsolved murders, and there was a newspaper headline shown that went something like "Police Search for Clews". This would have been around 1935. Does anyone have more information? When did the spelling change?

As urban sprawl claims what was a desert, now with cities being built in the former deserts, the name desert no loger can apply according to dictionary.com they define deserts as; A barren or desolate area, especially:
A dry, often sandy region of little rainfall, extreme temperatures, and sparse vegetation.
A region of permanent cold that is largely or entirely devoid of life.
An apparently lifeless area of water.
An empty or forsaken place; a wasteland: a cultural desert.
Archaic. A wild, uncultivated, and uninhabited region.

so as you can see the almost all of the definition no longer applies, what new name or word shall be applied to reclaimed desert land?

I tried to create a new dictionary, but either Word fails to recognize it, or defaults to its original dictionary. I want something that will flag me when I have written a word that is not in the dictionary. Any ideas?
