What is this old Barbie PC game?
what I remember is that I think it was rapunzel, but not the new version
and barbie went to this dress shop in the town and had to match the color of dresses
and then she also had to go to a bakery and decorate a wedding cake?
Oh I remember that game, the old one! I believe it is just "Barbie as Rapunzel" I think Is till have mine, nobody really played it much because it was so easy and there wasn’t much to do. You would dress her, decorate her cake, then get the things you need and that was the game, if I remember it right.

Would you like to save the planet for new years?
The true culprit in Global Climate Change is the SUN! BUT, whether you believe it is caused by mans green house gas emissions OR through natural cycles, one FACT is clear: In 5 billion years, the SUN will destroy all life on Earth. Once the Sun exhausts its hydrogen fuel, it will bloat into a red giant. Its surface will engulf Venus and may extend to our orbit.
Science backs this fact. Nuclear energy my friends is going to kill every polar bear, furry little seal and talking cartoon rabbit and dear on this planet! Yes, the same type of energy developed by the USA with the sole intent to murder peace loving Asians on the brink of surrender will destroy Mother Earth in the future.
The only course of action we as humans with a social conscience can take is to destroy the Sun, and do it before it gets a chance to destroy our precious planet. Right now, the Sun is sending harmful UV light which is fueling the green house effect, it is also a key component to the climate of the Earth…IT must be stopped if we are to truly survive. We can sit here and point fingers or we can attack the source of the problem head on.
Will you join us in our struggle for survival by writing your representatives and demand that they encourage global cooperation in this Earth saving task? If you wait another 5 billion years, it will be too late!
In order to buy time, we must reclaim as much hydrogen here on earth and send it to the Sun in order to post-pone the inevitable until technology is developed that will destroy it.
The UN needs to establish a Global Hydrogen Reclamation Committee, staffed by the best and brightest sociologist. This committee will be responsible for deciding on which nations have surplus hydrogen based on potable water supplies and indoor plumbing. These nations will contribute those surpluses of hydrogen to be collected on behalf of the world, to be sent directly to the Sun in order to stave off disaster just one more day.
It may sound impossible, but it is better than doing nothing until a suitable solution to destroy the Sun can be found.
We must work to get China and India on board. Also consider the benefits gained from "Yellow" technologies! Jobs will be created in the Global Hydrogen Reclamation Division and there will be many more jobs directed toward creating a device or method to destroy the Sun.
While the "Green" movement seeks to profit from a temporary "fix", the "Yellow" movement actually seeks to stop the problem at its source! By destroying it once and for all. Only then will this life giving planet be habitable for cola drinking polar bears, sad eyed baby seals, hyper-intelligent dolphins and talking cartoon animals. Unless of course you deny the science which backs the fact that the Sun will exhaust its fuel source and become a red giant…thus destroying all those lovable creatures previously mentioned. Or are you in the pocket of "Big Green"? Bent on raking in profits from temporary and futile fixes with out a care about what will come in the long run…?
Something must be done now to ensure the survival of our life giving planet for eternity! Governmental action must be called upon in order to save Mother Earth from eminent destruction. We here at M.A.N./F.I.R.S.T. (Mankind Against Nuclear Fusion Intent on Reversing Solar Tyranny) believe the science is settled on this issue. Big Green would rather profit in the short run with curly light bulbs and electric cars, but WE offer a solution to a very real problem!

Icarus: So you base your thought on what you did not read? The science is settled. The Sun WILL indeed destroy this life giving planet as long as we do nothing. Open your mind and stop being a denier.
would i like to save the planet for new years? NO WAY! i want to get all i can out of the planet while i am alive. i want to squeeze the planet like a wet sponge, then run it through a ringer and get every fricking drop of potential out this planet just for me. when i am dead i won’t care a whit about the planet, let the future generations find another planet to use, as for me… i want it all and i want it now!
| Jan 01, 2010
There’s no way I’m reading all of that. But you’re against nuclear. So we get rid of it. What do we fill the void with? Coal? Oil?
Anything else is either ineffective or untested.
Wait, "The only course of action we as humans with a social conscience can take is to destroy the Sun"
Around here I decided you aren’t serious.
Dass | Jan 01, 2010
"The true culprit in Global Climate Change is the SUN!"
Long disproven, sorry. The true culprit is human activity - principally the burning of fossil fuels.
icarus62 | Jan 01, 2010
Yeah, what you said.
Amazing how the political man thinks he can save the world.
The world has been reparing and replenishing itself all by it’s self without "his"help.
I agree "the political man" wants my last dollar and he will think up anything to get it.

please help!!!! im confused about my periods?
ok..here’s the thing…i had my periods on jan 22, exactly 1 month after my last period which was on dec 22. and today morning when i went to pee,i noticed that i was bleeding which is just 14 days from my last period. its not spotting, its regular period like bleeding but its brown in colour( i only have brown color on the last days of my period) there are many reasons i suspect…but i dont know which one so plz help..
1)on jan 29 i took the morning after pill(i’ve taken it once before and i’ve not had any side effect)
2)my sports day is coming near and so we’ve been having practices every morning and afternoon for the past two weeks.im not much of a sports person and so i’ve been having muscle pains and body pains because the practice is so intense. everyone in my class is almost like half dead after practices.
3) im usually not the eating type of girl…im thin and small for my age(im 16 and becoming 17 in 3 months) my parents get mad at me for eating little coz they think im getting weak.
so what do u think it is, is it the pill, or the sports that strained me, or the fact that im getting more weak due to sports, like i dnt have enough fats. so thats making my periods irregular, hormone imbalance… am i preggo( well i dont anyways think im pregnant coz i did not have full sex wit my bf, my hymen isnt even broken yet 
and he cant get his penis more than an inch inside me(i took the pill just incase coz we didnt use condoms)
please help..im really freaked out about the brown color flow…is there something wrong?
Calm down. Women sometimes have irregular periods, even those with very, very regular cycles. You also just took the morning after pill which can make your period come sooner. The color probably isn’t anything to be worried about, it can changes and varies. Your lack of fats would halt your period, not make it come more frequently.
I would be worried about taking the morning after pill so much. Even though you aren’t having "full sex" as you say, you are because a penis is entering your vagina. Use a condom. You can get pregnant from his penis being in you, and obviously you know this because you are taking the morning after pill. The morning after pill is supposed to be emergency contraception for people that make mistakes and have emergencies. Those pills flood your body with hormones and cause all sorts of side effects. You shouldn’t be using that as your only contraceptive.
You probably should talk to your doctor about your period, about how you can get pregnant, about your diet and about getting on regular contraception. You might also want to talk to your parents; they can be more helpful than you think.
Julie | Feb 05, 2010
i think its just from the morning after pill. the morning after pill can have no effect on your period due date or it can make it take longer or come quicker. the bleeding will stop shortly and you’ll be fine. i suppose its just telling you its worked? lol. i think its number 1. the mornign after pill can have different effects on your body each time you take it so dont worry that things are happening differently than before.

A question about marijuana?
Okay, I have a question about a high that I experienced over Winter Break. First off, I am not a lightweight, so don’t just say that was it. My friend comes over to my house and he brings weed, he packs a bowl and we start to smoke it, we were chatting away because I hadn’t seen him in like 6 months, because I moved. He said that the weed he got was really expensive "good stuff." But I didn’t really pay any attention, I was just excited to see him. Well, all of a sudden, after smoking only like 1 and a half bowls the high hit me like a brick. I tried to text my friend and my phone was like… in a different plane of existence. Like my hand and my arm and my eyes were all separate and I couldn’t get them to all get together so that I could type the text. Then I stood up and I could like feel everything more… I had kandy bracelets all up one of my arms and I was very aware of how each bead felt against me. Then all of a sudden I started pacing in circles really fast and talking extremely fast, but I didn’t notice, my friend pointed out that I should sit down, then I realized that I was pacing and I started running around in circles and yelling. I was yelling at him, and I kept asking if I was dead or passed out. I was really worried that I had died and that everything was a dream. I kept telling him to call 911 if I passed out, then he made us go back inside (we had been on the balcony) and we sat down on the couch but I still kept getting up and running around. I was running so fast and talking so fast, my heart felt like it was going to pound out of my chest. Then, things started to get really weird, I had absolutely no notion of time and I kept asking him how long its been, and sometimes he would reply back "2 mins" and other times it was like "45 mins" Well anyways, everything was moving and twisting more than ever, so I sat down and I kept screaming at my friend that I was "in another land" and I remember that I was like… in Rome and I was in a ring with gladiators and everyone was watching me and I was running around and I was afraid that the lions were going to come get me. Then, all of a sudden, there were cats and they kept like getting in my face and I was scared and wanted them to leave. Then I was in this land where spiders were butterflies and there were dandelions floating around me… it was creepy yet serene. During a time when I felt a tad more grounded to the point where I could think about reality, I got up and got paper and started drawing to try to take my mind off of the… high I guess. I mostly drew just what I saw in the "lands" then I started freaking out again and I was running around and my friend told me to eat bread to take the thc out of my bloodstream so I did and it didn’t help. Then he got bored because apparently he had been watching me for… I don’t even know how long, and he forced me to leave the house with him, even though I didn’t feel…sane enough to. Well, we started walking to his friend’s house and as we walked and I got more fresh air, I started to feel better… then we eventually got to his friend’s house and we got in his friend’s car, and we went to Berkeley to some telegraph street or something and I was starting to come down, and I could like distinguish reality from fantasy now. But it was so weird. My question is, why did my body react that way? Because it was like a serious body high and head high. Was the weed laced? (I know that’s a dumb question.) And if you guys are wondering why nothing happened to my friend, well, I smoked a lot more than him, and he is 6′4", 280 lbs, and I am 4′11", 110lbs. And I have been like permanently scarred from that experience, and now I can’t look at reality the same, and I feel like reality is a lie, and I keep getting freaked out about the experience at random times…
Yes, I am sure it was weed.
I don’t know exactly how long the "trip" lasted because I was with my weed smoking friends, and we kind of just go from place to place smoking more weed. I am guessing that it lasted maybe… 3 hours? I don’t know for sure though…
I don’t know if I was imagining stuff or hallucinating… I felt really lost. I couldn’t concentrate on anything, my thoughts kept jumping. I couldn’t tell if things were real or not.
And I don’t know what I smoked. I asked my friend and he was really high and didn’t remember what it was called, so we asked his friend, and his friend didn’t remember the name, but knew that what we had was crazy stuff because he had bought it before from the same person.
i always laughed when i first started
Old Man Withers | Feb 10, 2010
you mean u were imagining or hallucinating? because weed usually doesn’t cause hallucinations, really strong weed can. but only very mild hallucinations.
ya its laced if u were actually hallucinating.
sounds like pcp laced, but never used or seen anyone do pcp so…
Tyler | Feb 10, 2010
First of all - Are you sure it wasn’t Salvia ?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salvia_divi norum
Just remember that everything you were imagining was because of the weed you were smoking.
People usually loose track of time when they smoke too much weed. They also feel cold, jittery, shaky and generally freak out. Some think that they should drink milk, others drink water to stop the high. I think you should embrace it and realize it’ll pass in about an hour. Not a big deal.
You shouldn’t freak out anymore - just don’t smoke any more weed. You’re just not a weed type of guy - not a big deal.
How long did this whole "trip" last ? Was it an hour or was it 5-6 hours ?
Ask your friends what you smoked. Ask them if it was weed. If so, you should be fine. Just don;t think about it anymore.
Wake up early tomorrow morning, eat a nice breakfast and start off your fresh new day in Cali.

Too long. No one will want to touch it. Edit.
Steve | Feb 10, 2010
People like you, are the ones who give THEM the fuel they need to keep it illegal. If it wasn’t for lightweights and their idiotic experiences, nobody would be out there saying all these things like "marijuana should be illegal because people spaz out on it and hallucinate", "marijuana should be illegal because its often laced". Both of which are not true. You give marijuana a bad name.
People who have experiences like these should just keep it to themselves and stop making the rest of us look bad.
Just assume you had a panic attack due to anxiety triggered by a very potent strain of marijuana you couldn’t handle and move on, stop trying to give marijuana a bad name. Don’t touch it anymore, it’s not for you.
CJ | Feb 10, 2010
I have never heard of someone reacting like that to marijuana! am thinking it was salvia in it. I’ve had friends try it with similar experiences.
Miss D | Feb 10, 2010
Any idea what you smoked was called??? Certain marijuana kush strains have 30%+ thc, first time I smoked og kush I was straight fucked. Time was going by sooooo slowly. Then I tried to relax by smoking a cigarette and I passed out. Btw I blazed an entire eigth(3.5grams).

Sri vishnu: oh ! Let me hear it from you, Deva rishi.
Narada: Oh ! Thanks for hearing me, oh ! mahavishnu, i am singing your name every second
all the day, singing your glory all my life every minute of it, oh ! God, can any one there
more devoted to you than me ?
Mahavishnu: is that your question ? oh ! Devarishi, a farmer living in the earth is the great devotee,
why, he is the greatest devotee than you, narada. you go there and see him.
Earth
narada: yes, there the farmer..does he think of narayana, let me watch..

Mahavishnu: what narada ? what do you say ?
Narada: Narayana..what i have to tell ? is he a great devotee than me ? He is thinking of you
at night, in the morning, and a very few times only in between, while i think of you all
the time, even though ..and yet you call him one of your greatest devotees..wonderful..
Mahavishnu: (YOU WILL SOON SEE WHY?) Narada i give you a vessel filled to the brim with oil
balance this vessel on your head, walk around and come back here without spilling
a drop of the oil…..
Narada now with vessel on his head.. He speaks himself..” i must be causious lest the oil should spill..Ah ! Ah ! that was a close call, had i slipped, the oil would have split. i must be more careful..Aha..finally i completed successfully..om namo narayana..i did it successfully, narayana..
Mahavishnu: Good, you are back..nice. narada, tell me now how many times did you remember
me during your walk ?
Narada: not once prabho..i am afraid. how could i ? All my attention was fixed on the oil & vessel
Mahavishnu: HA..Ha..narada..that former has hard work to do, yet he remembered me at least
as you said a very few times, while you could not remember me even once..
Narada: narayana..narayana..i accept, those who remember you amidst hard works without doubt
even if they say a few times a day are really a greatest devotees…

Excellent way of telling whom God loves more and Who is God’s real devotee.

IMDB rating: 7.00 Plot: The path of Francesca Johnson’s future seems destined when an unexpected fork in the road causes her to question everything she had come to expect from life. While her husband and children are away at the Iowa state fair in the Summer of 1965, Robert Kincaid happens upon the Johnson farm and asks Francesca for directions to Rosamunde Bridge. He explains that he is on assignment from National Geographic magazine to photograph the bridges of Madison County. She agrees to show him to the bridges and thus begins the bittersweet and all-too-brief romance of her life. Through the pain of separation from her secret love and the stark isolation she feels as the details of her life consume her, she writes down the story of this four-day love affair in a 3-volume diary. The diary is found by her children among her possessions and alongside Robert Kincaid’s possessions after Francesca is dead. The message they take from the diaries is one of hope that they will do what is necessary to find happiness in their lives — whatever is necessary. After learning that Robert Kincaid’s cremated remains were scattered off Rosamunde Bridge and that their mother requested a similar disposition for her own ashes, the children must decide whether to honor their mother’s final wishes or bury her alongside their father as the family had planned. Adapted from the novel by Robert Waller, this is the story of love that happens just once in a lifetime — if you’re lucky. |

Have you seen the stimulus bill hard at work?
After a flurry of stimulus spending, questionable projects pile up
By: Susan Ferrechio
Chief Congressional Correspondent
November 3, 2009
The $787 billion stimulus bill was passed in February and was promised as a job saver and economy booster. Here is where some of the money went:
- $300,000 for a GPS-equipped helicopter to hunt for radioactive rabbit droppings at the Hanford nuclear reservation in Washington state.

Dang, I bet all of them was his buddies, and they put huge chunks of that in their own pockets, for supporting that liar to get into office.

Out of curiosity, I used one of you claims, and I investigated it.
You can go to recovery.gov and see what is being spent where and on what. You don’t need to repeat or listen to lies.
You claimed this:
$9.38 million to renovate a century-old train depot in Lancaster County, Pa., that has not been used for three decades.
I found this,and my guess is the rest of your chain email is similar:
Media deceptively claim stimulus funds going to "train station" that "hasn’t been used in 30 years"
June 17, 2009 2:26 pm ET
SUMMARY: Media figures repeated Sen. Tom Coburn’s claim that stimulus funds are being used "to renovate an abandoned train station that hasn’t been used in 30 years." But while the station house has long been closed, "[t]he station’s platform currently serves more than 80,000 passengers a year," as Coburn’s report noted.
