  • What is this children's book about Earth exploding?

    I vaguely remember reading a book in the 5th grade about Earth being destroyed somehow and the inhabitants escape on ships and go in search of a new planet. On the new planet, the "grass" was like shards of glass and there were moth people that I think hatched from giant boulder-like eggs. I remember that before they found a new place to live, the people ate iron rations and no one liked them. Does anyone have any clue what this book might be?

  • Maplestory help! Finding Tristan...?

    I need help getting to Tristan in Sleepywood. I can make it to the Dungeon: Another Entrance map but it won't let me into the Stairway to the Underground Temple. Why can't I get in? It keeps saying something about the heaviness of the ground. Do I have to be a certain level? It says the quest he gives is a level 10 (which i think is insane. No way I could have gotten past the Drakes @ level 10!). Help, please!

  • Are MMORPG parties supposed to be like this?

    I'm playing a MMORPG for the first time and people have invited me to party with them. I join and then they steal all my kills and take all the items. They say that's what you're supposed to do and that they'll give me anything I want but, I don't want THEIR stuff, I want to get my own! Am I being unreasonable or is that how the game is supposed to be played?

  • What's the etiquette...family relations?

    I have an older sister that I am going to visit in a few weeks and I'd like a little advice on how to handle what has been an awkward situation for the past 10 years.

    My sister has four wild kids. She and her husband don't do a particularly good job of disciplining them, especially when it comes to interactions with other people, primarily adults. Her daughters seem to think that people, mainly my husband, are jungle gyms. They climb, jump, grab and hang all over us. We find their behavior very annoying as well as painful. They often elbow, jab or knee people in the stomach, chest, neck, face or groin. All of her kids run around screaming, throwing toys and interrupting almost constantly. They treat me and my husband like peers as opposed to adults. When either of us (usually me) tries to correct their behavior, or asks them to stop climbing on us because it hurts, my sister cops an attitude. She usually says something snarky like, "Excuse me but, they HAVE parents" or, to her daughter, "Look, Rylee, you have another Mommy."

    I'm not trying to teach them manners or discipline them excessively; I know that's not my place but, I feel that I should be able to express my feelings about their behaviors towards me and my husband. I will occasionally say something about other misbehaviors but I ALWAYS phrase it like, "Does your Mommy let you do that?" or "What would your Mommy say to you if she were right here?" I am not trying to control these kids or "teach them a lesson," I'd just like a little peace so we can relax and have a pleasant visit.

    I am flabbergasted that my sister would treat me this way in front of her kids and doesn't teach them to respect me and my husband as authority figures. She has even asked me to come tell her when her kids do something "wrong" and she will handle it. Then, when I do, she accuses me of "tattling!" I'm 23! I am not going to tattle on an 8 year old. What should I do in this situation? I'm not sure what I can or should say/do to get across to my sister that her kids need to treat me like their friend's parents and not like their playmate. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. :)

  • How can I make my mac 'n cheese creamier?

    I really like the flavor of the mac 'n cheese recipe that I use. I made it for the first time tonight. It just turned out kinda sticky and...I don't know...pasty? How do I make it creamier?

    1/2 chopped onion

    2 Tbsp. butter

    2 Tbsp. flour

    1/8 tsp. pepper

    2 1/2 c. milk

    6 oz. shredded Cheddar

    6. oz. American Cheese

    2 C. uncooked elbow macaroni

    Cook macaroni according to package directions. Drain and set aside. In a separate pot, cook onions and butter until tender. Do not brown. Add flour and pepper. Add milk all at once. Cook over medium heat until thick and bubbly. Add cheese and cook until melted and smooth. Add macaroni. Stir to coat. Pour into 2 qt baking dish and bake, uncovered, @ 350 degrees for 25-30 mins. (and that was all from memory! yeah!!)

    So, should I add more milk or cheese? Also, I live at a high elevation, if that matters. Thanks for your help!

  • How can I focus when reading the scriptures?

    I always try to read my scriptures every day and I just can't focus! My mind wanders to the most useless things! What I need to buy at the store today, do I like the new toothpaste I'm using, where is my other shoe?.... I pray before I read to try to bring the spirit but I just can't focus. I don't have this problem with reading literature; I know the Devil is drawing me away from doing what I'm supposed to do. So, how can I stop it and focus on what I'm reading?

  • Middle name for Parker?

    My husband and I really like the name Parker for a boy but, we can't decide on a middle name. We're even leaning towards using John Parker but, I think it's stupid to give a kid a name and not use it. So, what would go as a middle name for Parker Wege (Weh-gee, like in "geese")?

  • How to get through to hubby?

    I miscarried a couple of days ago. It was our first pregnancy. My husband has been wanting children since we got married but, he doesn't seem too upset about the miscarriage. I wasn't too far along but, still! He doesn't seem to get that I'm in pain (physically and emotionally). I mean, I'm not devistated or crying all the time or anything. I'm just sad. He expects me to go to his cousin's house today and paint her house and has been annoyed that I haven't been cooking. I have hardly moved from the bed or couch in the last two days but, hey, I'm hurting. What should I do or say to get my hubby to understand? He's usually very sensitive and caring but, this just seems to be beyond him.

  • What is happening -- Is something wrong?

    Sorry but, this is going to be a little long...

    Okay so, my period has been a little irregular for the past year or so. I had my period in January and February, missed in March then had it in April, starting on the 13. 2 weeks later, I started cramping and my boobs became sore. I thought it was odd but thought nothing of it at first. It then continued for weeks after that. I also developed symptoms that made me believe I was pregnant. I had change in CM, light cramping, EXTREMELY sore breasts, fatigue, nausea, sensitivity to smell, food cravings, bloating, gas, dizziness, heartburn. I've taken 3 HPTs and they were all negative. I didn't think too much of it because I know it's possible to not get a positive for a while or even not at all.

    Today, I was at Target and I started cramping more so, I went to the bathroom and I was bleeding. Now I am cramping really bad and feel nauseated. I kind of feel like I'm on my period. It looks like my period when I wipe (I know, TMI, sorry.)

    So, do you think my period was late and I'm just crazy for thinking I was pregnant or could I be pregnant and is this normal at all or could I be having a miscarriage? Has anyone ever experienced anything like this? I'm very concerned but, I don't want to freak out unnecessarily. I'm going to try to make an appointment with my doctor tomorrow but, do you think I should go to the ER or something? I would be so embarrassed if I went and they were like, "Yeah, you're on your period." I would feel like such a dork. What should I do?

  • Strange movie--early 90's, I think.?

    I remember seeing this movie when I was a little kid (early 90's) and in it, a little boy stabs his mother to death with a pair of large gold scissors. I think it was set around 1910s or 1920s. Any idea what it was called? Thanks!

  • Pregnancy and allergic reactions?

    I think I may be pregnant (I have all the symptoms but the test was negative, I'm waiting a week to test again) and I've been having allergic reactions. I recently determined that the reactions were to a chapstick that I've been using for years. I then bought a new brand and it worked for a few days then, I reacted to that, too. My lips are severly chapped (which I've never really had much of a problem with before--another symptom of pregnancy?) so I need to use something on my lips. Is it common to have allergic reactions after getting pregnant to something that has been used a lot before pregnancy?

    Extra details: If I am pregnant, I'm about 5 weeks along. My reactions consisted of swollen lips and feet and itchy feeling all over my body.

    If anyone can help, I'd really appreciate it! Thanks and God bless!

  • Name of zombie movie?

    I can't remember the name of this movie. These young people (can't remember if they're teenage or college-age) are in a cabin in the woods and they start turning into zombies. The zombies then try to kill/eat/change the normal kids all through the night. In the morning, the one living zombie dies when the light hits him. He "melts" and falls apart with horrible claymation. Does anyone know the name of this movie? Thank you!
