What's a good name for my female fictional character?
Hi, I 'm working on writing a fictional story for my own personal pleasure. I want the characters in the story to be highly believable. One of my main characters is a female whose occupation is a freelance writer whose about to hit the big time with a huge publishing house. She's about 30 years old, has shoulder length red hair, and thin and attractive. (She's reminds us of the pretty school teacher we guys had a crush on when we were eleven). She has a nurturing mother attitude and would give a bum five bucks for beer if asked her for it or take a diseased abandon dog home if she found one on the side of the road. She's very trustworthy and doesn't believe in telling lies, judging, or misleading, and will help others before she helps herself. She takes integrity and honesty very seriously. These are her main character and personality traits.
Anyways, I'm trying to come up with a good name that fits well with her personality, looks, and character. I need some suggestions. The more names you can come up with, the better.
Thanks.

Will I get a penalty? How do I go about this without getting the duplicate content issue??? I will give away 50 points to the best, most helpful answer.

1 AnswerSearch Engine Optimization1 decade agoBest PS2 flight simulator game?
Hey, I need to know what the best flight simulator is for the PS2?
Please don't say any of the Ace Combat series. I'm looking for games that are in the "WAR" genre and more action realistic war style (action-packed) without the little girl story.
Here's the thing...
I bought a PS2 recently for my brother and he's wasn't one into video games. He's almost 40 years old. But now that he's got it, he loves it to death. Games that he really enjoys are Ghost Recon, Socom Series, Black, Gran Tursimo 4.
He's real guy-guy tough type of guy. He gave me some money to get online and get him flight simulator game for the PS2. I know there's not very many. But I'm wondering which one is the best based on the following factors:
Realism
War
decent graphics
Mans man type of game
Which PS2 game flight simulator is basically is the most bada$$ for us rough shaving man types?
20 points goes to best answer from me - please don't post crap that read from some 2 cent review. I want a answer that's from personal game playing experience. Thank you.

What is the best CD-R or CD-RW disc that are affordable and of quality? I want to burn some music CD's, but not spend too much cash. I've used Sony, they were great. But I was wondering if there were any cheaper deals / brands, that are of quality, will last, and just simply don't suck. I've used Memorex and they are garbage.
1 AnswerOther - Computers1 decade agoRecommend best Gamecube games for first-time Gamecube buyer?
I'm going to buy a Gamecube as they are cheap and I've never had chance to really sit down and play one. I was wondering if anybody could recommend any good games that may suit my taste...
On N64 I loved Castlevania: Legacy of Darkness
I also enjoyed N64 titles such as GoldenEye, Conkers Bad Fur Day, WinBack, Spiderman, Goemon, and Shadowman. Mario was okay, as well as Donkey Kong, but not my favorites. I never got into the whole Resident Evil - I'm one of those people who couldn't stand its controls. I am not looking for racing games. My favorite games are adventure types, with level bosses, items, stradgeties, etc.
I wasn't a big Zelda Ocarina fan - I didn't like the long stretches of wandering around and found it a bit difficult. I hate back-tracking and I've never liked a Turok game that I've played.
So I guess my real question would be, are there any good adventure type games, stradgety for GC? I was thinking about
buying HULK and LOTR 2 TOWERS
3 AnswersVideo & Online Games1 decade agoStrange pain beneath belly button. Best answer gets rewared 10 points.?
I have a strange pain right under the right side of my belly button - roughly a inch and a half in length, give or take. The pain is in a very thin area straight up and down, like a very thin rip or a crack the width and length of a needle inside my stomache lining. (best way I know how to describe it) It doesn't usaully hurt until I get up from sitting in a upright position or go to lay down or sit down upright. I have had this same pain before in the same exact spot - once about six months ago, once when I was 13. I'm 26 now. Each time it has went away after 2 days of taking it easy - one day of laying down flat. Both times before it would hurt when I walked for the first half of the day. I'm worried as this pain has happened before. I hate going to the doctor - and would rather not unless I absolutely have to. Hernia, Stomache muscle rip, pulled growing??? Which one is it?
3 AnswersInjuries1 decade agoBlogging???
I was thinking about starting my own Blog, but I'm a bit confused about how the hosting works. If I have Blog that gets relatively medium to high traffic, then is it wise to get a pay for host provider for my blog? I want to create my own blog, but I don't want to deal with down-times and slow page loads. I was thinking about going with blogger, also - any tips on the best blogging clients? I know html, I've got my hands wet with some css, and I know blogging is a journal like tool that you use to post articles, links, pics, ect. I was just wondering how well the free blogs work if you get high amounts of traffic. Do you need a host?????

1 AnswerSoftware1 decade agoDo you ever get unfair answers??
Example, I answered the questions to a contest and all were right.
I was at the top of the post, but the person below me won. The contest required a name and a title, and nobody had answered to the contest. So I posted the names, before adding in the titles. When I posted the titles a whole 4mins later, three different people had put in what I just posted with the titles - which to me is cheating, since all they had to do was take the names from me a do a search online for the titles. Bogus! So, do you ever get unfair answers on yahoo answers???? I do!
