What happens to foster kids in WA who age out of the system?
I know that the policies and procedures differ from state to state, but I can't seem to find a succinct statement of what happens to foster kids in WA. I know that there was a recen amendment passed so that some kids could continue to receive foster care up until age 21, but then what? Do they get a transition specialist who helps with an apartment and job and stuff? Or do they just get dropped off at the nearest homeless shelter? Thanks!

4 AnswersVegetarian & Vegan9 years agoSacred texts app for an Andoid phone?
I would love to find an app for an Android phone that either gives me a few verses of sacred text a day to ponder and/or allows me to browse through various sacred texts. By sacred texts I am referring to the Bible, the Qur'an, and texts held as instructional by Buddhism, Hinduism, Taoists, etc. Ideally, I would be able to choose the faiths included. Does anyone know if such a thing exists?

1 AnswerDiet & Fitness9 years agoA math question: how many bus tickets can I buy?
I am supposed to be buying bus tickets for my office but we've gotten a subsidy. We pay $.20 for every $.80 of subsidy. The total face value for the tickets awarded to us is $14,800, the amount of match our agency will need to pay is $2,960. If ticket books are $5.40, how many books of bus tickets can I buy? Please explain the math, not just give me the answer. Thanks!
2 AnswersMathematics9 years agoWhatever happened to Joseph's coat/robe/tunic?
In Genesis 37:3 it mentions Joseph being given a special coat/robe/tunic (depending on the translation) by his father, Jacob. Some time later the garment is again mentioned when it is presented to Jacob (covered in goat's blood) as proof that Joseph is no more. What happens to the garment after this? Is it ever mentioned in the Bible again?
PS - If your only response to this question is to decry the Bible (and/or Christianity), please don't bother answering. I'm not making any statements about the Bible's validity or lack thereof, I'm simply looking for information about the contents of the text. Thanks.

2 AnswersFacebook1 decade agoWTH? Seriously, what is up with all of the random questions in the LGBT section?
The only one I haven't seen yet is someone wanting to know what kind of bicycle they should get their mother-in-law for Christmas. Sheesh!
So, I suppose my question is this: are all of the people posting stupid, non-LGBT related questions in the LGBT section just not paying attention to the category they post in?

5 AnswersOther - Society & Culture1 decade agoWhat are some PS2 games I might like?
Although I desperately want a backwards compatible PS3 just so I can play Assassin's Creed II, it's not in the budget at the moment so the compromise is I get a new game or two for my PS2. I'm just about to be on Christmas break from university and I'm totally jonesing for some game time. The problem is, I need a new game.
I really enjoyed God of War I and II as well as Metal Gear Solid Subsistence. I thought that Champions of Norrath was ok but not as great. I like action/adventure games with a good story line and tight graphics/animation. I do not like turn based combat. Any thoughts? Thanks. - Max

So, yesterday I happened to be in the same room as a television for the first time in awhile and I saw an advertisement for the game Assassin's Creed II, which looked awesome. I tried Googling Assassin's Creed I but didn't find anything. Is there an original Assassin's Creed? Is Assassin's Creed (I or II) available for the Playstation I or II system?
1 AnswerVideo & Online Games1 decade agoUsing potions in Champions of Norrath?
I just got Champions of Norrath for my PS2. I'm not that far into it, but for the life of me, I can't figure out how to use the potions. Is this because I'm currently playing as a barbarian warrior and he is unable to use the potions? I have both healing and mana potions and no idea what to do with them.
