1) I'm from SoCal. Google "calling california cali" and you'll see the overwleming response from people who share my sentiments, though, if you insist on calling it that, whatever. You do you.

1)Never call California "Cali"

They just don't give you an Eagle badge for twiddling your thumbs while you shout "God hates the gays and atheists." That's fine if you don't think it's something that sets a candidate a part from the pack, but I hope you or someone else wouldn't discriminate against them based on an assumption that their involvement…

My whole family was involved with scouting and my brother and I are Eagles. I value my time in scouting and it really taught me so many skills that I've taken with me in my adult life. It's still relevant, I'd argue even more so, today and it's the organization I've been involved with that really made the most impact…

I as well as my father received the email. He's my old troop's charter rep. and I taught the course for a few merit badges for which I needed to go through the adult training to do so more than the SM received them. Hopefully there are enough sane people responding back to them. Sad to say I really doubt it.

The funny thing here is that I can't tell if you're describing his menswear or womenswear collections, both I should add, require eating disorders to wear. Seriously, not that I could afford it, but there is no way I would be able to wear a jacket from Saint Laurent or Thome Browne, which sucks because I like his…

I always loved Stefano. I think his designs never received the appreciation they warranted. His automata collection with the black bob wigs was what got me interested in fashion, at least high fashion. I feel they couldn't have gone any more in the opposite direction with Hedi's appointment. I'm sure this collection…

I believe its actuallu chain-mail made out of rubber.

Most of the fashion critics for major publications dress more unfashionable than the people who have no zero understanding of fashion.

It's not something you should care about because it's nothing special or important. I am dude and had no clue about high fashion until I started doing some research on contemporary fashion for an architecture project. After a few seasons, it becomes very easy to develop a critical and objective understanding of…

Same thought. The local theathers in L.A. will charge upwards to 14 dollars. That's not even including those full service ones with dining options.

Does it work for dark spots around the eyes? I'm assuming it's not safe for use around the eyes, but I want to know if there's something that corrects the discoloration and not puffiness or bags. I'm biracial and my skin color is dam near white (think Malcolm Gladwell, except maybe a bit rudder) but the areas around…

I do imagine that at some point within the next 50 years, the Church will change its position on human sexuality and procreation thus changing its teaching on homosexual behavior. I think that's a realistic time frame. The Church in the U.S. will be there in 10 (perhaps not officially, though, in sentiment.)

You don't think priests get the hots for nuns? One of the brothers at my h.s. got into trouble for have a sexual relationship with a nun from our sister school.

Nope. The Church doesn't believe that sexual orientation can be reassigned through therapy. Some priest or leaders will inject their own personal views on the matter, but according to the official teachings, the Church acknowledges and accepts the scientific evidence that concludes that in the majority of cases gay…

No, engender means to create or give birth to. I believe the author meant to use gender, as in to distinguish or characterize by gender.

I feel it an idiot. I know it should be supposedly but I don't know what's wrong with the teacher's statement. Is it an issue of adverb usage or the fact that she wrote "of" in place of have?

Do you realize those fake furs are made from oil and other petroleum products that cause more environment damage than normal synthetic fabrics. There are additional chemical processes that the fake furs go through to achieve the look and feel of real fur. Your best bet is to buy vintage, buy from humane suppliers, or…

Thank you for you well-reasoned response.

It's an Alexander McQueen dress from this year's fall collection.
