  • What is the name of a song in film 'Bring it On'?

    It's the techno dance track that's in all cheerleader movies (and the episode of Buffy where she's a trying to be a cheerleader in Season 1) and in Bring it On it's on when they get in the choreographer guy to do their routine for them - pretty much the only words are 'y'all ready for this?'

    Help! Need it for cheesy dance CD for party tonight!

  • Why isn't Sarah Michelle Gellar in any of the DVD extras for Buffy?

    I've finally replaced my old video boxsets with DVDs and was watching the extras yesterday when I noticed that Sarah Michelle Gellar isn't in any of them! All the other actors talk about their characters, or are interviewed. She isn't!

    Even in the behind the scenes footage for 'Once More With Feeling' she hardly features, and she doesn't appear in the footage of the wrap parties at all.

    As the main character this seems really strange - did Joss Wheedon hate her or something? I did notice that for the commentaries for the early series he raves about her as an actress, but in interviews for Series 7 he just calls her 'competent'.

    Seems like there's something going on there? Any one know what? It may well all be common knowledge but I don't tend to read celeb mags or anything so I wouldn't know...

  • How many fish can I have in my aquarium?

    I have a 30 litre cold freshwater tank and I currently have four fancy goldfish (fantail orandas), one small catfish, six zebra danios and two yellow platys. Can I add a couple of guppies as well, or have I reached the maximum amount of fish that it is safe and healthy to keep in my aquarium?

  • How do dolphins sleep?

    Do they have to sleep on the surface so that they can breathe? They are mammals so surely they must sleep - they can't be like sharks who don't sleep as sharks are fish.

  • How do I increase the general volume level on my iPod?

    I have an iPod mini, and the general volume level is very low - even when I turn the dial to the highest volume I can bearly hear most of the music on there if there is any background noise, for example if I am on a bus or something. Is there anything I can do to increase the volume?

  • Quasi Theological Question...?

    My question is this: creationists take the story of the bible literally and believe that the world was created by God in seven days; why therefore do they refuse to treat the rest of the bible in the same literal manner? For example, one of the ten commandments - 'thou shalt not kill': take this literally, and you should end up with a Bhuddist type belief that all life is precious and not to be wasted. As far as I know, creationists are usually also supporters of having guns etc, and go hunting and shooting (which is killing, is it not? God said thou shalt not kill, and as far as I know didn't qualify this with, 'but hey, you think hunting and killing is fun, so off you go and kill some deer') and probably wouldn't hesitate to shoot a burglar as seems to happen fairly frequently in the US, or so we are led to believe.

    How can they justify these double standards??

  • Dragons - fact or fiction?

    I've loved the idea of dragons since I was a little girl and would love them to be real. There are descriptions of dragons in seemingly every culture - even the Brut Chronicle details that dragons were seen flying down the east coast of England...

    What is your opinion? Would you have liked them to exist? What do you think a dragon would really look like, and how big would it be?

  • Has there been any backlash for GreenDay since American Idiot?

    The album is quite critical of American politics etc and whilst I think it's a great album, I wondered whether they had encountered any hostility because of it?

  • Does anyone else get random offensive emails from other Yahoo! Answers users?

    For e.g. I answered a question asking what your favourite band is, and I answered Green Day ('cause they are) and got an email, the title of which called me a bi*ch, saying 'GreenDay sucks' over and over again and telling me to get over myself!!

    I really can't understand why people feel the need to be like this - I had an email the other day threatening to take a shotgun to my head because I disagreed on someone's position on criminalising abortion (and I was polite about it).

    Can you report Answers users for offensive emails, or do you just have to put up with it? It offends me and winds me right up when I get these emails for no reason and I want to do something about it!

  • What were your strangest childhood misapprehensions?

    For example, I thought (when I was about 5, please bear in mind) that the difference between continents and islands was that islands floated (i.e. on the surface of the sea) and that continents were 'stuck to the bottom' (i.e. to the seabed). I thought that there was some big system of anchors or whatever holding the UK in place.

    Anyone else have any similarly strange ideas as a child? What were they?

  • What is a dive bar?

    I answered a question recently (asking which was your favourite diver bar) saying that as a non-American I had no idea what a dive bar was and wanted to know.

    No-one has told me, so what is one??

  • Should Church and State be kept separate?

    My personal opinion is that religion and politics should not mix - this is because I think religion is a personal choice, and in today's multicultural society no religion should be able to affect the law and government of a country that will be made up of people of many religions.

    However, I recently watched a documentary about a new college in the USA that has been set up with the express intention of getting fundamentalist Christians into the White House and into all areas of Government.

    What do you think? Should religion ever be allowed to play a part in government?

  • How do you trace other users on Yahoo! Answers?

    I have had a threatening and abusive email sent by a Yahoo! Answers user to my email address - I cannot reply to the email as the system brings up an error message. I have no idea why this message was sent, the person did not say, they just said 'come and get me. I'm waiting for you, just get ready for a shotgun blast in the head', which was pleasant of them.

    They then emailed me again under another username to 'apologise' and request that I don't report them for abuse!!! How do I trace this person's username as I think they should be reported for being so deliberately foul.

  • How can I change the setting to 'All English Questions' permanently?

    At the moment, it switches back to UK and Ireland only every single time you return to the questions page after answering a question, when you switch categories, whenever, in short, you do anything and it's highly irritating!

    How do you set it permanently to show all english questions?

  • Places to visit in Normandy, Brittany and Bordeaux??

    I am going to Normandy, Brittany and Bordeaux for two weeks in July and would appreciate some tips of good places to see. I do have a thing for mediaeval castles so am particularly interested in those...

    If you could give me a web address that would be extremely helpful, and if the site is in English that would be even better (my French is terrible and I'm thoroughly ashamed of it).

  • Does anyone else miss Buffy?

    I just had a bit of a Buffy-fest with some friends over the weekend and wondered if there are other people out there still mourning the loss?

    I'm also interested - what is your favourite episode in Series 7? Mine is Lies My Parents Told me, it's so pivotal.

    Also, I say We Like Spike but Angel is King - agree or disagree? (Although, I watch series 3 and it's Angel all the way, then I watch 6&7 and it's Spike. Too fickle, me).

  • Why do you believe in God?

    I personally do not believe in God, or in Heaven or Hell, but I am always curious as to why people do. I'd rather that people didn't quote the bible to me, as it's not something that I feel is true - what I am interested in finding out is what it is that makes you believe in your heart.

    I personally find organised religion (of any persuasion) slightly distasteful - I can't really see that it's done anything for the world other than cause wars and subjugate women and indigenous peoples. Every extremist group seems to find justification for their actions in the Bible/Koran/Torah (I'm thinking of the KKK, Al'Quida etc) but I am also aware that the Bible/Koran/Torah has a lot to say that is worth paying attention to, whether or not you believe in God - why is it that the good in the book is so often ignored in favour of parts that incite violence and intolerance?

  • My fancy goldfish (fantail oranda) seems to be having a buoyancy problem?

    I feed him (it's only one of the two with the problem)with special fancy goldfish food that sinks and is supposed to avoid swim-bladder problems. However, after I feed them one goldfish seems to become far to buoyant in the water and really has to swim to get to the bottom of the tank - the second he stops moving his tail he floats up to the surface. He does stay right way up (apart from when he ends up sideways from swimming so hard to get to the bottom of the tank). I feed them about 6pm in the evening and he's always fine again when I get up in the morning (about 5.30am). Lisbet doesn't have this problem at all so I think it may be a problem with Mr Darcy (the fish with the problem) not the food??
