What is the cheapest sites/sources for international plane tickets?

I should have searched to see if this question has been asked before but I'm lazy I guess. Going to Egypt next year with a friend. Staying for 15 days and some meals are paid for. How much spending money (American Dollar) should I bring?

I have a gas water heater. I light it and the pilot light comes on. I crank up the gas and the burner lights up. It burns for a few minutes and then kicks off shutting off the pilot light as well. It shuts off before the water gets warm. Anyone know what the issue is?

Thanks in advance...

A friend of mine is looking for this product but he cannot find it. He lives in Canada, is it in stores there?

Thanks in advance.

I am planning a trip to Dubai and was wondering if it is safe for an American to travel over there yet. I know we are pretty unwelcome everywhere so should I pretend that I am Canadian or should I not go at all? It looks like a beautiful city and I would very much like to visit...

Thanks.

Myself and a friend are planning on visiting Ireland next summer. We are bickering (friendly bickering) over plans. I want to either land in Shannon and work our way to Dublin. My friend wants to base us in Tipperary/Cashel and travel everywhere based from there. We have a 7 day window once we are in Ireland so we need suggestions from those who live there on which would be the better plan for travel times and what to see.

We also need an idea on how much money we will need (aside from air fare and lodging) for food and getting around. We are not touristy and do not want to fall into tourist traps aimed at taking advantage of us Yanks, lol...

Thanks in advance...

I saw it on BBC America several years ago. It may be a mini series. It was set in Belfast I do believe and was about the troubles there. I think it was __________Street. Help a guy out!

I will be in NYC in early December for 2 nights. Aside from Travel to/back and lodging, how much $$$ am I going to need? We are going to be hitting some of the required tourist attractions and the Macy's store. Will it be best to use our vehicle or public transport for getting to & fro? And can you recommend places we must go to eat/see.? We are on a semi-tight budget.

Thanks.

I am fixing a simple dish of Black Beans and Rice and was wondering if I can keep it to this:

Basmati rice steamed with no seasonings

Black beans cooked with a bit of beef broth along with ham hocks seasoned with salt, pepper, and cumin. Is this enough seasoning? I want to keep it simple but flavorful.

Thanks in advance.

I am making home made tomato sauce for the first time and need to know how many tomatoes I will need for approximately 1 quart of sauce. Anybody know?

BTW, I am using roma tomatoes and they are smallish.

Thanks in advance.

Hi. Is there a Marriott Hotel anywhere in Ireland? Thanks!

Melting icecaps will affect sea level. But, would a free floating chunk of ice, such as an iceberg, affect the sea level? It is already displacing its maximum, am I correct?

I need a quick dessert recipe and I have these ingredients to work with:

Flour: natural white, and all purpose

Baking soda and baking powder

Cocoa powder

Sugar: plain white, raw sugar, and honey

Eggs

Milk: 2% and buttermilk

I don't really want to go all the way to the store and I have to have this done by Tuesday, lol...

Hi. My poor sweet cat has a very bad case of fleas. I have used the Zodiac products in the past and they have worked just fine but this year nothing seems to be working. The Zodiac medicines or the collars don't help. Any suggestions?

Hi. My grandmother used to make this wonderful sauce for her meatloaf and I am now trying to find a recipe for it. She has passed away many years ago so I can't ask her. I know it was red (i'm guessing tomato) and she also used the drippings from the meatloaf in it. All the cooking websites don't know what I am talking about, does anyone here know or maybe have a recipe for it?

Thanks.

Hi. I am looking at buying an Acer mini desktop (ASL-100 UD360A) and I would like to hear some reviews of the brand or model before I buy. I have never heard of Acer before, is it a good brand?

Thanks in advance.

Hi. My niece likes this band from Finland (I think they are called Irina) and she just loves their song 'Pokka'. I have tried in vain to find their CD for her as a birthday gift. Am I right in the name of the artist(s)? If so, does anyone know where I can find this CD? I have already tried Amazon and Ebay.

Thanks...
