someone told me that i should upload my pics onto the comp from my phone using vz pix place...i got some pics on there but how do i just get them to my computer..not send them to another phone?

VZW Pix Place is a website. It isn't something on your phone.

www.vzwpix.com

You sign up for an account with your cell phone number & a password. You sign in & go to the gallery & there you can copy & paste your pictures or prnt scrn them.

Make sure you send the pictures from your phone though.

You know the band the kooks? Well how do you pronounce it? I heards this one girl say it like cooks, but i say it differently..

http://www.answers.com/topic/kook?cat=technology

I'm pretty sure the band got the name from the definition of kook which is a strange/crazy person. If so, it's pronounced kuk, not cook. If you go to the website & click the pronunciation of it you can hear it.

Plus, I only heard it pronounced 'kuk'.

okay the other day my sister packed my gummy bear vitamins in a plastic bag that said " for Victoria" because we were going away on a trip. There were like twenty vitamins in there but anyway she didn't tell me what she did. So i grabbed the bag and started eating them and didn't realise till later they were vitamins. Now i have a pain in my lower stomache and i don't know if its because of the vitamins or something else. please help!!!!!!

ps: im 15 and a girl!

There's people I know that ate those because they tasted really good & basically ate 2+ bags. I would recommend not doing it again, but I don't think it will harmful. Obviously don't eat them again & if the pain persists, see a doctor.

what are some cute halloween costume ideas for a 16 year old girl?

There are plenty of websites you can look through for some ideas.

http://www.zoogstercostumes.com/landing/teenhalloween.php

You can either buy them offline, go to a store like party city & ask around for it, get material & make your own or customize it in your own way. Here are a few other sites-

well i have been dating my boyfriend for almost 3 weeks and we had kissed but not made out...dont ask why it took this long...but we finally did tonight...and i was really self conscious that i was doing it all wrong because i am not as experienced as him and he has alot of girls to compare me to and i have basically no one to compare him to...so do you think he will really care if i am bad at it? and if he does then it is obviously not going to work out.. right?

You shouldn't worry about it. Relax first off. It doesn't matter if you have no experience & you aren't the best at it. It's your first time right?? Practice makes perfect. Confront him about it & explain that you know you aren't great at it & if he could teach you. I'm sure he wouldn't mind. Every guy is different though. Some care, some don't. If he truly likes you for who you are & wants to be your boyfriend then he'll be more than happy to help you out & won't mind if you aren't great at it. It can work out regardless.

met my guy early july. he lives in boston, i live 10 minutes away. i go there everyday and spend the day and night with him. we like eachother, without a doubt but agreed early on that we couldnt really "go out" because its illegal for us to date. it sucks because im truly crazy about him, and i never even like guys like this so im shocked. im very mature for my age and i think this is why.

he is moving back home tomorrow, an hour and a half away from me. i dont know what i am going to do. we want to still talk but we havent really figured anything dominant out. he says he would let me stay at his house (his familys home) on weekends but he doesnt know how is mom would feel about me being 17. im just kind of heart broken and its sad to say, but i wish i never had met him now because i dont know what im going to do when he leaves. i was thinking about if we stayed close this year, i could go to school near hm next year but i dont know if i should bring it up or not. any suggestions? thanks =(

You should just talk to him about everything. 17 is only a year away from 18 & I believe that age should not be a huge issue, unless it's 10+ years or something. I'm in a long distance relationship myself & I can honestly say that everything works out fine. An hour and a half is definately not 10 minutes, but it really isn't bad. You could always stay at his house [if his mom is okay with it] or meet up half way to spend time together. You could talk on the phone/online in the meantime. Why don't you ask him to talk to his mom about it?? Age shouldn't be a huge issue, especially since you are almost an adult. Plus, it only becomes an issue when you become sexually involved, which if that is the case, you should discuss that with him. Just because you might not be as close distance wise, does not mean you have to lose the closeness in your relationship. Discuss the situation with him & see how he feels about it. Explain your feelings & what you want out of the relationship. You should definately bring it up.

ok well me and my boyfriend arent in the same class, and i go to a catholic school and so we pass notes ALL of the time and we have never been caught, i passed him a note today and he wrote back after that class.. and one of the teachers saw us and took it.. it said some bad stuff in it and cussing at our school is like.. "unexceptable" so we both got detentions.. idk what to do because all of the parents kno me as a well behaved person.. i kno this question is really gay but hah i get worried about certain stuff. what do i do!?

kk thanks!

Just talk to your parents & his parents about it. Explain how you know you made a mistake, but it really is just one detention. I would suggest waiting until after class to talk or until there's a free moment where class isn't going on. You have to remember that you both got into trouble. He got into much as you did, right?? So his parents shouldn't be upset about that. His son got into as much trouble. You could've got into more problems since it was 'unexceptable'.

I think I have strep! I have the medicine and everything. Middle school starts monday, if I have strep will it be gone by then? What if i dont have strep, will it be gone by monday? i hope a doctor answers this Q

Did you schedule a doctor's appointment?? If not, I would suggest doing so. That way they can diagnose you & give you medicine to treat your specific case of strep.

http://www.kidshealth.org/parent/infections/lung/strep_throat.html

Read that site through. It gives a lot of good information.

Depending on the person, it varies. Sometimes it can last a few days while other times it lasts a few weeks. If you go to a doctor & get treated, you might be better by school, but it all depends on how you feel & if you rest & drink plenty of fluids. Keep yourself eating regularly & hydrated.

I have the worst headache ever at the front of my head. It's been there for hours, I've taken two motrin and it won't go away. This has happened recurringly over the past week and I can't take it. It feel like it's behind my eyes, between my eyes and at the top of my head. My head just feels so heavy all the time and I can't bare it.

Does anyone know how to get rid of terrible headaches? I don't mind websites as long as they're short and to the point, so now WebMD. Once again, does ANYONE know how to get rid of this headache?

There are different medications for headaches, but everyone reacts differently. Was the motrin specifically for headaches or was it basic?? I would suggest going to a local drug store tomorrow & asking the pharmacist what the best medication is for a headache. Also, if your headache is not gone in 24 hours, I would recommend scheduling a doctor's appt. There are also different types of headaches such as tension & sinus. They can diagnose what you have & suggest medications. First of all, sleep is something that you definitely need. Make sure it's dark in your room, since you could be sensitive to light. Also, make sure it's pretty much quiet. If you are stressed out, the headache can get much worse so try relaxing. Eat regularly & keep yourself hydrated with lots of water & other fluids. Proper diet & exercise really does help.

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20060930163316AAa15ID

That question was asked on yahoo answers. Many different people gave their input & experiences with headaches. Since you said you tried medicine, there are other natural ways that can help relieve your pain & are mentioned on that website. Like I said before, you should go to a local drug store or make a doctor's appt.

this summer I worked at my town's summer rec program watching the kiddoes and stuff. and there was this guy who worked there too, and I liked him and I got the feeling that he liked me too. then last week it got to be time for the rec program to be over for the year. I thought he was going to say something to me that on that day, you know asking me out or something. but he didn't and I was too shy to say anything to him and now I'm really mad at myself because it was really a no risk situation. he doesn't even go to my school so its not like I would have to see him every day if he didn't like me or whatever. So now I'm not sure what to do. I know he works at this grocery store around here so I'm considering going there when he's working and talking to him then. so my questions are
1. is that a bad idea?
2. if its not a bad idea, what exactly should I say? i can't really just walk up to him and be like, hey I like you.
3. if it is a bad idea, what should I do instead?

I don't think it's a bad idea at all actually. If you're interested in him, why not take a chance?? He'll probably be really flattered that you took the time out of your day to stop in & say hi. You don't want to be wondering "oh what if I went & saw him" because you could date & what not. So, it would be a good idea to go. If you see him, wave & casually start talking to him. Ask him how his summer went, what he did, if he's excited to go back to school, classes he's taking, etc. Just be friendly & listen to him. If it goes well, then you can throw in "hey maybe we should hang out sometime" or something. You probably shouldn't approach him just to tell him you like him. Ask him to hang out with you first. Maybe to dinner, bowling, miniature golfing, shopping, movies, etc. It doesn't have to be the two of you either if you think it'll be awkward. Make it into a group date. He can bring his friends & you could bring your friends.

i'm trying to lose weight.
i'm 5'2, 130 lbs.

i want to be 110 by my birthday, which is december 7th.
I think this is a pretty realistic goal because i worked it all out and i'd need to lose about a pound a week, maybe a pound and a half.

there are some problems though.
one, i'm really bad at commitment, and i get bored easily. plus i'm kind of lazy.
two, i'm italian, and my mother was born in italy so every meal i have involves some sort of bread, and i eat pasta every other day.
three, i'm addicted to sugar. i can't help it at all.


can anyone make some suggestions of like workout routines i should try or how to work around my carb issues?
i have a treadmill, but i can't really run more than a mile at a time.


thanks♥

Stick with your treadmill. As long as you get a bit of exercise in, even if its going for a walk, that's fine. Try exercising 3-4 days a week & sometimes 5 if you really want to lose weight faster. With your commitment issues, you should really just focus on your goals. If you don't stay with your diet & don't keep up with your exercise, you won't get to your ideal weight. It's necessary to be healthy, so it's not even about losing fat. It's about staying healthy & losing weight. Just because your family is centered around bread & pastas, does not mean you have to be. Ask them to whip you up a salad with either low fat dressing or salad spritzers, which you can find at local grocery stores. Try buying whole wheat bread & whole grain pastas. Avoid white bread & pasta, since there is a lot of carbs in them. Carbs aren't bad. Like everything else, they are just bad in large amounts. If you do need to eat what your family is on certain days, that's fine. Use portion control. Only take a bit & try to incorporate lots of veggies with your dinners whether its salads or other veggies. You do need sugar, but you can't overdo it. I would suggest eating Chewy Granola Bars. They only have 7-8g of sugar & come in a variety of flavors such as peanut butter chocolate chip. They're only 100 calories & will keep you satisfied if you're hungry. They're a good snack. Try sticking with sugar from fruit. You can make yourself fruit salads with strawberries, blueberries, peaches, pineapples, watermelon, cantalope, etc. You could top it with low fat whipped cream also. Granola is another good option. Try different yogurts too. As long as you stay focused & motiviated, you'll see results.

on the top right side of ths screen shows how much battery is left
i mean bars like how much service..if that makes sense

Oh that's service bars then. Usually people refer to battery as 'bars'. The same thing should apply though. Either way, it shouldn't be there if you can't see it. When you look at your phone, there should be two rows of bars. On the left hand side, the first thing there should be a tower sign. Then as you move to the right, there should be an 'EV' sign with bars following it. Underneath that there should be 'TX' with bars following that as well. If you can't see that, there is something wrong with your set up & you should call the company & ask. If you can see that, but there's other things, you should look up the symbol in the phone's book.

do guys like belly button piercings or not? like are they to slutty or cute?

and i have a really good body (not to be conceited) but just saying that cause im not some big girl everyone tells me it would be cute on me but im wondering what guys think of it?

Everyone has their own opinions. I know guys who like when girls have a belly button ring & I know guys who hate it. It's all just about preference. If you're into it & want to get one, go for it. Just realize that people do make judgements. Some people think they're slutty, some think they're cute. I think if you want to avoid the slutty image, get rings that are simple. Don't have a huge dangly one with a playboy bunny on it or something. Just get a plain jewel. It all depends on what you get & what you wear. If you're comfortable with your body, go for it.

Is it possible to arrange pictures in your album on Facebook, or do they have to stay in the order they were updated?

You can't arrange pictures in facebook like you can in myspace. The order of the pictures is based on when you uploaded them. So however you uploaded them, that's how they stay. If you want to fix it, you can delete your album & start over.

Well I just got bangs and when I lift them up, I see that my skin is all red, like REALLY red!

Why is that? i don't put anything in my hair like gel or hair spray at all.

And today i got some pimples on my head too plus the first problem of a full red forehead.

please help =(

I'm not sure what that is but it could be a lot of things. Did you go to a salon to get bangs?? It could be the shampoo or conditioner they used. Your skin could just be irritating from it or isn't used to hair rubbing against your forehead. It seems like irritation. For now, clip your bangs back & make sure there's nothing touching that spot. Give it a few hours & if nothing seems to be working & it isn't going away, call the salon & explain your problem.

I just got my eyebrows waxed and now my skin is swelling and red. how can I make the swelling go down by tomorrow? also, the lady from the salon took out a lot of hair. do I just need to wait for it to grow back?

The swelling & redness goes away with time. Since you just got them done, it will take a bit for it to go down. You don't need to wait for it to grow back. Just make sure you aren't irritating it & let it heal on its own.

http://www.ultimate-cosmetics.com/beauty/makeup/eyebrow-waxing.htm

On that site it says that moisturizer can be used to ease the swelling & redness, but I think you should only do that if it's been a day or two. Leave it go & see what happens. If it's still there or still bothering you, you should check with the lady from the salon who did it & ask her what you can do about it.

Does anyone know when the National Movies will be on in the U.S for Central time?

Their main site can give you any information on the National Movie Awards.

http://www.nationalmovieawards.com/

They're on September 28th 2007 in London. Therefore, you would need to check with local listings. In London, they are at 8pm so in the US they would start at 3pm since they are 5 hours ahead. They might not be on at the same time though. You should check listings for your area since the channels & times are different.

You could also check with your service provider.
