Gina Rocks!

I have a Nikon S570 and dropped it. Now I have a lens error. When I turn the camera on it just says lens error. I can't access the menu or anything on the camera. I tried the USB cable which I normally use to upload photos and it didn't work. I also tried the memory card and that didn't work. I assume the photos are on the internal memory since I can't get them off of the memory card. How can I access them when I can't get past the "lens error" message? I don't think I want to get it repaired because it will probably cost more than the camera did!

He has a pretty good score now but we are hoping to buy a house and would like to pay it off since it is a pretty sizable payment. We will have the money when our tax refund comes in. But maybe it isn't as great an idea because I think it may decrease his credit score (the part where it's the amount of debt: available credit). Does anyone know for sure?

I work for a middle school and we are putting together a recruitment video for our after school program. I am looking for 3 or 4 songs that would be appropriate. This video will be shown to our 7th grade students during the school day. Therefore, no sexual references, no overly violent lyrics, no fowl language. I'm sure there has to be some out there! HELP!

I need bridesmaids gifts for my six bridesmaids.

I do not want to get them jewelery or tote bags.

They are almost all traveling in from out of state so I don' t want to get them anything big that they will need to cart home.

They are all over 26 (except one) so I kind of want something that is going to be useful to them. Something that they can use over and over again and probably don't already have. NOT one of those little trinket boxes with their names on them.

I also am on a tight budget so I need some relatively inexpensive ideas, hopefully under $30 per person.

My fiance's friend is also getting married and they are having a stag party Friday night. We are not sure how it is different or similar to a bachelor party. The guys were talking about raffling off bottles of alcohol or something and we are kind of confused! Traditionally the bachelor parties we know of consist of the guys going out, drinking, strippers etc. We've never heard of raffles or anything like that. They live in Mass. maybe it's a regional thing.

Who has better prices? Produce? Meat?

I'm getting married and I don't want hairy arms in my wedding photos! I have never bothered with arm hair removal before but I want to look beautiful on my wedding day..not beastly! What have you tried? What can you recommend?

I got one for Christmas and it makes my hair look the best it has EVER looked but I'm concerned about how safe it is for my hair. Will it end up frying my hair over time? I have extremely thick stubborn hair and this smooths it out beautifully I don't want to give it up! I only wash my hair once or twice a week and I only flat iron it maybe once a week...sometimes not even once.

Myself and three of my friends, scattered in NY, NJ, NC and FL want to take a girls only vacation to get away from our men and in some cases, kids, just for a long weekend. We want somewhere fun but not too expensive! Please share your ideas and any stories you may have from when you visited the spot. What is there to do there? Can you recommend a hotel? Restaurants?

Here are some criteria we are looking for.

*We are 27 years old so we want somewhere that would fit our age group.

*Preferrably on the East Coast.

*AFFORDABLE!

*Good nightlife.

*Good places to relax during the day.

*Maybe a beach.

I have leave in conditioner, mousse, shine spray, gel....etc.

I know there are different types. What are the price ranges? Any info you have is appreciated!

My cousin's wedding shower is this weekend and I want to get her some items for her Honeymoon, a Caribbean Cruise. I don't know what size she wears so I can't get flip flops. My ideas so far are: Beach bag, beach blanket, towels, book gift card....Can you think of anything else?! QUICK!

I'm looking for a pair of good jeans that don't cost a fortune. I'm 26 so I'm growing out of Juniors and womens look to mom-ish. I'm short (5'2") and I have a butt. Any ideas? I'm looking at max $50. In Junior's jeans I wear like a 7 or 9, in women's I wear a 4 or 6.

It can be either a new or rebuilt transmission. I have $3000 left on the car and trying to decide if I should just fix the transmission and ride it out for another year or buy a new car!

I need to know what colors are good to wear. I live in upstate NY and in October it is cold!

Is it even really about an acutal person?
