Just curious... I could only think of Venezuela, which is a proper noun so I don't think it really counts.

C.C. lives with her father and her mean stepmother, her mother died when she was really little.



One day on the way home from her aunt’s house C.C.'s stepmother (Niang) tried to strangle her because she slept at her aunts house without permision. C.C. bite Niang to free herself. Niang was furious she told C.C’s father and he said “ How dare you bite your mother she is your niang and you must respect her!!!” Then her father grabed her by her school uniform and threw her out of the house. He told her to never come back.

C.C was all alone on the streets Luckily she bumped into a woman called Grandma Wu who trains children in martial arts and acrobatics. Grandma Wu asked C.C. if she would like to join her martial arts club. C.C. decided since she had nowhere to go it would be a good idea.

Should I add this poem to like an online voting website:



Raise your hands & touch the sky
Go to your “dream land”& begin to fly
Life’s a dream, Then you wake up
Hopefully you’ll have some sort of luck
Along this dream, many encounters you shall face
Just go along at your very own pace
Maybe you’ll travel down a road with no end
Every corner, there lies another bend
Maybe you’ll be stuck somewhere in between
And everyone you loved starts to be mean
You’re stuck in a world you thought you once knew
And now everybody has turned their backs on you
Maybe you’ll be the one at night who cries
Trying to make this end, hoping that everybody dies
But then your soul starts to scream
Just wishing you would wake up from this horrible dream
But now your telling yourself just to breath
And raise your hands & touch the sky
Go to your “dream land” & begin to fly
Life a dream, Then you wake up
Hopefully soon you’ll have your luck

This is a question that could be interpreted in different ways...and the answer could be having to do with the letters...notice that if you reverse all the letters, they will be in the same order. I want to hear what you people think. Thanks! ;)

Would you please tell me a word, meaning “according to”? (as stated or indicated by)

The word is used in this context:
According to Mary’s report, submitted to John at 12:45 p.m. on Jan/01/2006 at his 300ft office, 6.2 feet, 41-year old white man Mark Clark abducted Laura, 8-year old white girl, at middle of 1st Street in L.A. at evening of Dec/15/2005, using his Toyota Highlander 06 Black model while she was walking toward her home at about 10mph from her elementary school, Walter Elementary School, on the street.

I searched a synonym for the phrase ‘according to’ about 10 minutes ago at following eight thesaurus websites, but could not find the word at the search:
answers.com, encarta.msn.com/thesaurus, infoplease.com, m-w.com, synonym.com, thefreedictionary.com, thesaurus.com, wordnet.princeton.edu.

Thank you for your time and help!
