Resolved Question: First international flight, confused about customs/immigration and bags?

Im flying alone from Portugal to Brownsville, TX and im considering buyng spearated roundtrip tickets Portugal-London and London-Brownsville,TX (Delta Airlines) since its cheaper. My questions about immigration/customs are: 1-The London-Brownsville trip has 2 stops (New York and Houston) will i be interviewed (Waiver visa) on the first cease in New York or only when i arrive to Brownsville? 2-Will i have to check in again on both New York and Houston airports once i arrive? 3-If i buy the tickets online, and on the website said fees and taxes are included, will i be charged for something else if my bag is neither oversized nor overweight and i dont intend to buy food/drinks and wifi? 4- If i do the check in online where should i go once i arrive at the aiport? About bags: 1- When people say "carry on baggage" what do they mean? I know i will have to pay the fee for the bag that doesnt go with me on the plane, lets say the bigger one, and i also know i can carry a personal item like a purse or laptop case for free. Can i also carry a bag that fits below the seat for free or will i have to pick between the purse and the smaller bag? 2- In case i'll have to pick between those two can i take a normal size backpack and fit both laptop and purse inside? 3-Can i bring food i prepared at home like nuts or sandwiches inside the plane? 4-On the London-Brownsville trip will i look my "bigger bag" in New York and Houston or only in Brownsville? Sorry for maybe asking too obvious questions, its just because this is my first flight ever and even though i will call the airport to ask further question i would like to have some knowledge before i receive there on the day of my flight and "receive lost". Thank you.

Resolved Question: Is this true about facebook timeline?

Source:Yahoo.com NEW YORK (AP) -- Facebook will start requiring people to switch to a new profile format known as Timeline, making photos, links and personal musings from the past much easier to find. Timeline is essentially a scrapbook of your whole life on Facebook, compared with a snapshot of you today found on Facebook's traditional profile page. Once activated, Timeline replaces the current profile. Although some people have already voluntarily switched to Timeline, Facebook hadn't made that mandatory. Beginning Tuesday, Facebook is telling some users that they have seven days to clean up their profiles before Timeline gets automatically activated. Facebook is rolling out the requirement to others over the next few weeks. At some point, even those who haven't logged on to Facebook in a while will be automatically switched. Timeline doesn't expose anything that wasn't available for sharing in the past. Many of those older posts had always been available. People could receive to them by continually hitting "Older Posts," although most wouldn't have bothered. Timeline allows people to jump to the older material more quickly. Timeline also doesn't necessarily reflect the fact that your circle of friends has likely expanded in recent years. A party photo you posted in 2008 to a tiny group of friends would be more visible to relatives, bosses and others you may have added as friends since then. You'll have a week to curate the Timeline by moving stuff around, hiding photos or featuring them more prominently on your page. Some things to consider: — You can change privacy settings on individual items to control who has access. You might want to narrow embarrassing photos to your closest friends or delete some posts completely, or at least hide them so only you can look them. — You can change the date on a post. For example, if you took a few months to post photos from a trip to Portugal, you can move them to appear with other posts from the time you took that trip. You can also add where you were, retroactively using a location feature that Facebook hadn't offered until recently. — For major events in your life, you can click on a star to feature them more prominently. You can hide the posts you'd rather not showcase. — Besides your traditional profile photo — your headshot — you can add what Facebook calls a cover photo. It's the image that will splash across the top and can be a dog, a hobby or anything else that reflects who you are. Keep in mind the dimensions are more like a movie screen than a traditional photo, so a close-up portrait of your face won't work well, but one of you lying horizontally will. But you don't even have to be in it. — You can add things before you joined Facebook, back to when you were born. Life events can include when you broke your arm and whom you were with then, or when you spoke your first word or got a tattoo. You can add photos from childhood or high school as well. — If you feel overwhelmed with so many posts to go through, start with your older ones. Those are the ones you'd need to be most careful about because you had reason to believe only a few friends would look them. — Click on Activity Log to look every of your posts at a glance and make changes to them one by one. Open Facebook in a new browser tab first, though. That way, you can have one tab for the log and the other for the main Timeline.

Resolved Question: My mother is so evil and scheming...should I stick up for my godparents?

Hello, I am a lady in her mid-twenties and I am currently in medical training. Anyway, first, let's go back to sometime in the 80's. My mom and dad were a young couple who came to this country in search of a better life, from Eastern Europe. They were taken in by a nice, cheerful lady and her husband. They had one child at the time, but in a few years they would have six kids, one adopted. They were taken in to work in their tiny bakery, and life was good. My mum and dad had me, their only child, and I grew up with the nice lady's kids. We played with each other every day. I was closest to the most good-looking of the boys. However, in the mid nineties my dad started having an affair with a young lady, and abandoned my mum. My mum wanted to jump off an apartment block holding me (I was only little at the time) but the nice lady managed to convince my mum to arrive back. And so, me and my mum didn't die and it should have been good. However, when i reached my early teens something dreadful happened. My mum had an affair with the nice lady's husband. When the nice lady found out, the first thing she did was not demand a divorce, but instead she told her husband not to divorce her for the kids's sake. My mum, however, forced the man to divorce the nice lady (who is actually my godmother) and they went to court with a legal battle for the kids, and the nice lady ended up with three of the kids, the other three with my mum and what was now my stepdad. My mum didn't like that I was close with the nice lady and her husband's kids, and so she sent me to study in America. A decade later, the nice lady's sister returned from Portugal (she had married a wealthy Portuguese man but had just divorced him) and she found out that my mum and stepdad had taken the bakery's name and had become millionaires through expanding the bakery business into a company. I had just returned from America after studying medicine. For the first time in years, I met the boy I was close to when I was in my early teens, the son of my godmother and godfather/stepdad. The nice lady's sister decided to take legal action against my mom and stepdad because they had used my godmother's bakery's name for their business empire. However, the court favoured my mom's cause. However, this sparked my stepdad to start talking to my godmother again, and I started talking to the boy again and soon we started dating. My mom hated every this, but soon it spiralled to the point where my mom started doing things like falsely accusing my godmother of adultery in front of important people. It eventually spiralled to a point where my stepdad decided to separate with my mum and reunite with his former wife and reunite his family. My mum, however, wanted revenge and so filed a lawsuit against my stepdad/godfather to gain a majority of the business' assets even though they rightfully belong to my godparents. She ended up with 80% of the assets and so became seat of the company. What should I do? Should I receive my mum to transfer the majority of the assets to me and then I'll transfer them to my godparents?

Voting Question: I feel very anxious because my long distance boyfriend goes long periods without contacting me?

I'm supposed to be visiting him this month. He is currently staying with his parents in Portugal and I am in the US. He said he was going to call me the weekend so we could arrange a time for the flight. I am going to meet his parents for the first time. That was on January 11 when he said he would call the next day or weekend. I am nervous about what is going on. He goes long periods without contact. He's done it before but he said his uncle didn't pay the internet or phone bill or something. He stays with his uncle during the week then goes home on the train on the weekend usually. He's been there since June so I haven't seen him since then. I feel a lot of anxiety and I don't know how to feel. I tried to email him and he isn't online either I noticed. Yes I've seen him 3x before, a few days to a week at a time, and he is generally not a talkative person unless hes pissed off so I kinda understand it but at the same time its inconsiderate. We have a good time together face to face but with the distance it gets annoying.

I am suffering from depression and i have an EXTREMELY severe anxiety disorder to the point that I simply CANNOT go to school.. This term (2nd term) I never went to school. Basically, never. It started 1 January, which means I missed 23 consecutive days of school. Plus 30 misses in the 1st term.. I want to go to college, FEUP college, the best college in portugal, i'm very smart actually, but this might ruin my year.. Is there any chance I can still recover it? It's like almost 1/3 of the period is gone.. but I still haven't missed any tests so..

Resolved Question: Looks like there's Portuguese bias in the Madrid locker room ?

Real Madrid's week has gone from bad to worse. After losing 2-1 at home to fierce rivals Barcelona in the first leg of the sides' Copa del Rey quarter-final on Wednesday, the capital club have endured days of bad press following Pepe's ugly stamp on the hand of Lionel Messi in that encounter, as well as criticism for their negative tactics against the Catalans. And tensions now appear at a high amid reports of a serious training ground dispute between coach Jose Mourinho and vice-captain Sergio Ramos on Friday. According to Madrid-based sports paper Marca, Mourinho accused his playing staff of betrayal following their post-match press reaction on Wednesday night. During Friday's session, Mourinho is reported to have turned to Ramos and said: "You [guys] killed me [with your quotes to journalists] in the mixed zone." Ramos is said to have replied: "No, boss, you only read what was published in the press, not everything we said." According to Marca, Mourinho then hit out at the supposed Spanish clique as he responded: "Of course, as you Spanish are world champions, your friends in the press protect you ... like the goalkeeper." That was in reference to captain Iker Casillas, who was some 30 metres away and apparently reacted angrily as he protested: "Boss, here we say things to our faces, eh ..." Mourinho then reportedly turned to Ramos and asked: "Where were you for the first goal, Sergio?" "Marking [Gerard] Pique," he answered, to which the Portuguese countered: "Well, you should have been marking [goalscorer Carles] Puyol." Puyol was allowed a free header by Pepe, who lost the Barca captain at a corner, and Ramos claimed he and his team-mate had switched marking duties prior to the set piece. "He [Puyol] and Pique were drawing the defenders [to leave space for others] and we decided to change the marking [responsibilities]," the Sevilla-born star is said to have told his trainer. "What's this then?" Mourinho snarled. "Now you're trying your hand as coach are you?" "No, but depending on the match situation, sometimes it's necessary to change the marking," Ramos hit back. "And as you have never been a [professional] player, you wouldn't know that this is sometimes necessary." Marca also claims the Madrid players remain unhappy after Mourinho's attack on his players following the Christmas holidays, when he said some of them had not stopped 'eating and drinking' during the break. The paper also alluded to preferential treatment to the Portuguese players on Mourinho's part, an action which has apparently upset his Spanish contingent. In another damaging report on Sunday, El Mundo Deportivo claimed Pepe made a racist remark to Barca's Seydou Keita in the Spanish Supercopa back in tardy August, calling the Malian a 'monkey' - the same insult said to be used by the Catalans' Sergio Busquets against Marcelo in a Clasico clash in the Champions League last season. Real Madrid and Barcelona renew their rivalries on Wednesday at Camp Nou, in the second leg of the Copa del Rey quarter-final, with the Catalans 2-1 up from the first leg. http://www.marca.com/2012/01/22/futbol/equipos/real_madrid/1327231392.html Why is Mourinho getting mad at Ramos for Puyol's goal when everybody knows it was Pepe who was marking Puyol ? is Mourinho creating Portugal-Spain divide in this RM team ?

Resolved Question: i have liked him forever...help!?

okay so i met this guy in grade 9 and we really became nice friends. i had the biggest crush on him in the world but was so shy i could barley talk or look him in the eye. we talked on msn like every night and he was very flirty and would always tell me about how he was done with this girl that he liked, and guide me on to believe that he was interested. so that summer we talked a lot...and then in grade 10 when he got back from a vacation in Portugal he ran up to me to say hello, and said he missed me, and i traveled with his volley ball team and we talked and he was really nice. after that however, we stopped talking. we had the rare time where we would say hello but that was it. i have a twin sister and he had classes with her so they started talking and i felt devastated. i met this really cute boy in grade 10 second semester and started to like him and tried to take my mind off the other. then grade 11 came and we NEVER talked! once again my twin had class with him but we had no classes together. just hello's in the hallways and i hated his guts because he was ignoring me. it hurt so much. NOW to gift day grade 12, and to my surprise on the first day back he is in 3 of my classes ( including spare). before i was unable to look him in the eye or carry on a conversation but now i talk to him like no problem! mostly i help him with homework on spare and we hangout in the library or cafeteria, and he treats me like a pal and we giggle a lot. we talk about soccer, and life and joke around a lot! and he playfully hits me and flirts sometimes. i got his number this year to and so he texts me sometimes. the way that he treats me is very flirty and stuff and we've gotten together one time outside of school to do a project and it was a blast. sometimes we talk about past things like good memories and stuff and obviously he remembers that i liked him but he thinks that's over and done with. this guy is SO good looking i cant even describe it! he is so silly and talented and smart and i adore spending time with him. we have a class together next semester and then that's it. graduation comes and he is out of my life. the things is he's pretty popular and an outgoing party boy, who likes dolled up girls and drinking and im populair and attractive too but im not a party girl, and im quite reserved at school and am also a Christ loving Christian. SO i guess my dilemma is that i care about this guy so much but i know it will never happen because we are very different when it comes to lifestyle. sometimes i think he just uses me to help him with homework, but its difficult to believe that with the looks he gives me and the things he says and has said in the past. i know if i hold onto this is just going to be really difficult to let him go when we graduate, so my question is what should i do? how do i let him know how much he has meant to me every these years? and what do you think he meant by every the things he did? THANKYOU :)

Resolved Question: I need some advice..?

I guess i will just jump right into it. I was with my boyfriend for about 6 months, when I fell pregnant he was not overly upset. At the start I found it difficult to deal with as it was a big shock that I had not been expecting so our relationship was a bit rocky. A few weeks after we found out that I was pregnant he slept with a girl that I have always been madly paranoid him being with as they had a moderate fling before I met him/new him but he always said that they where just friends and he never liked her like that it was just a drunken thing. They went out together to a lot to clubs/bars etc when I was with him.. and she had texted him that she has feelings for him but then she had blamed it on the drink etc "well that's what he told me" and he was always with her and even sometimes I would of went up to his home and sit and wait for him to arrive back like he asked when he went out with her.. and I always gave him the benefit of a doubt I never thought he would hurt me like that. He went to Portugal with his friends before he had told me he had slept with her and we had an argument because he wanted to be with her a couple of days be fore he left and i wanted to spend time with him and he basically said he wasn't choosing me over her. . also he hates drinking to much, he hates that feeling of drunkenness but he said it was just a drunken one night stand, I really don't believe that. Once he told me he had cheated.. "the whole ten yards, sex.. and god knows what else". I broke down and I haven't felt stable since. I have tried to receive over it but I feel it creep up once and a while.. I feel I let him off to easy and it eats away at me and i go on her facebook so much and look at her profile too look if she has posted anything about them hanging about. . I don’t feel like he is staying away from her even though he promised he would. I just, it makes me so unhappy when I think about it I just can’t receive over it that well. I am 8 months pregnant now and he didn’t tell me till I was 6 months or so. . Please help me.. I just feel so lost. I adore him so much, but sometimes I just want to receive away from him before he kills me because he's hurt me so much and I just feel dirty, digsuted used and lost.. Also, he goes to every ante-natal appointment, he does seem to be there for me.. "unless he is to stressed out when i start to feel down and wants to be with his friends or something". His whole family have accepted me and they're every so lovely and I don't want to ruin everyone thinks I have if that makes sense, I just don't want a lot of disturbance and change I just I want it to go away I need some stern advice. When we're good we're great, but sometimes I just can't cope and i'm irrationally upset and I sometimes feel subconsciously I want to upset. I know things are different now, especially with the way I treat him.. I've lost some affection for him. I resent him, but I just don't want to lose him. I also feel like, I'm forcing myself to be in a neutral mood and glad, I just feel myself stare of into space at the thought of how tragic my possess life his, I hate self pity but that's the way I feel.. This is my first serious relationship, so I don't have past experience. There's no history on my side of the family of bi-polar or other mental problems. For him, I don't know..

Voting Question: ..I need a little proper advice, from someone who has been in this position or who have some mature insight.?

I guess i will just jump right into it. I was with my boyfriend for about 6 months, when I fell pregnant he was not overly upset. At the start I found it difficult to deal with as it was a big shock that I had not been expecting so our relationship was a bit rocky. A few weeks after we found out that I was pregnant he slept with a girl that I have always been madly paranoid him being with as they had a moderate fling before I met him/new him but he always said that they where just friends and he never liked her like that it was just a drunken thing. They went out together to a lot to clubs/bars etc when I was with him.. and she had texted him that she has feelings for him but then she had blamed it on the drink etc "well that's what he told me" and he was always with her and even sometimes I would of went up to his home and sit and wait for him to arrive back like he asked when he went out with her.. and I always gave him the benefit of a doubt I never thought he would hurt me like that. He went to Portugal with his friends before he had told me he had slept with her and we had an argument because he wanted to be with her a couple of days be fore he left and i wanted to spend time with him and he basically said he wasn't choosing me over her. . also he hates drinking to much, he hates that feeling of drunkenness but he said it was just a drunken one night stand, I really don't believe that. Once he told me he had cheated.. "the whole ten yards, sex.. and god knows what else". I broke down and I haven't felt stable since. I have tried to receive over it but I feel it creep up once and a while.. I feel I let him off to easy and it eats away at me and i go on her facebook so much and look at her profile too look if she has posted anything about them hanging about. . I don’t feel like he is staying away from her even though he promised he would. I just, it makes me so unhappy when I think about it I just can’t receive over it that well. I am 8 months pregnant now and he didn’t tell me till I was 6 months or so. . Please help me.. I just feel so lost. I adore him so much, but sometimes I just want to receive away from him before he kills me because he's hurt me so much and I just feel dirty, digsuted used and lost.. Also, he goes to every ante-natal appointment, he does seem to be there for me.. "unless he is to stressed out when i start to feel down and wants to be with his friends or something". His whole family have accepted me and they're every so lovely and I don't want to ruin everyone thinks I have if that makes sense, I just don't want a lot of disturbance and change I just I want it to go away I need some stern advice. When we're good we're great, but sometimes I just can't cope and i'm irrationally upset and I sometimes feel subconsciously I want to upset. I know things are different now, especially with the way I treat him.. I've lost some affection for him. I resent him, but I just don't want to lose him. I also feel like, I'm forcing myself to be in a neutral mood and glad, I just feel myself stare of into space at the thought of how tragic my possess life his, I hate self pity but that's the way I feel..

The Arctic tern is an amazing bird that migrates 22,000 miles from the North Pole to the South Pole every September (and back home every April). At dawn on a certain September day, one bird is flying due south past Lisbon, Portugal, a distance of 3,124 miles from his Arctic home. He is flying at a constant velocity of 17 miles per hour. How far, in miles, will he be from home at sunset, exactly 12 hours later?

Resolved Question: When is it Time to Stop Giving it One More Chance?

I'm a 28 year old professional (doctor), or I was. My other half is 39, and worked as a cook in a very high-end hotel restaurant. But he's also Portuguese so, in our wisdom, we decided to emigrate to Portugal in the understanding he would be the breadwinner while I got to grips with the language. We're now 6 months in. The weather is wonderful, the culture is great, the people too, those I can understand at least , BUT my other half just isn't cutting it. He has finally, after 5 months of nagging found 2 days a week working in a hotel so far away it is barely worth the petrol money, and does nothing else. The 5 days he doesn't work he gets up at 1 or 2 in the afternoon, trying to receive him up earlier results in strop & bad mood for the day - its just not worth it. He then sits on the sofa in front of the tv or on his computer the whole day, and I cant remember the last time he came to bed at the same time as me, no matter what time I sit up til or how many times I ask. Maybe I was naive... things were similar in England, just not so drastic... but he assured me it was because the weather was so bad he just didn't look anything attractive about going out to do anything. Now we're here, it's mostly sunny... and he's worse. I have to actually nag a 39 year old man to have a wash more than once a week, and then suffer the resentment he bears for asking him to for the next hour or so. We have three dogs, which he wanted, who only ever go out with me. We have a home, which was his grandmothers, that needs so much work doing it still rains inside one of the rooms on bad days. I do every the housework - fair enough he works two days a week, I don't mind the majority being mine- but I didnt expect that to include everything from dealing with the chickens, to our dogs, the cleaning, cooking (on two hobs because the relax of the cooker doesnt work!) the washing to having to make him wash himself, every while worrying about what exactly we're going to eat tomorrow because we are so strapped for cash. And now his bright idea is to have a baby???!!! We split up two years ago for around four months because I felt he no longer appreciated me, no longer valued my opinions etc - well, this time its worse tenfold. I almost feel like an accessory in his life. He refused to left me steer the car the other day because he knew the way and I didn't, and when I said it was only 5 minutes away, he could just give me directions and that I wanted to steer he threw a strop and insisted on just driving us home instead. I'm not a stupid person & I do adore him deeply but I'm at the limits of what I as a person can deal with. Living in a country where you do not talk the language better than say your average 4 year old is a very isolating experience. He hasn't kept his end of the deal, so now my money has run out I cant afford any more language lessons, we cant afford to socialize much if at every, he states he doesn't know how to tutor me and it's... not easy, to put it mildly. I reached the final straw over the silly macho-controlling car driving nonsense... and we had an argument about things, but at least that got it into the open. He says he doesn't know whats the matter, he just feels sort of absent and he keeps thinking he needs to change tomorrow but then the next day just hits the snooze on the alarm clock again. He also says now Ive threatened to walk out it will every be different; that he'll change because he has to. But, I truly dont know... I feel like we were here before but it was ten times less than it is now. Perhaps enough is enough? Perhaps I'm just really feeling every little problem because I AM isolated and not working and in a odd environment. It could be as he wonders- he's depressed - but even on wondering that his reaction isn't to go to the doctors here to resolve it... it's more of an excuse. And one he used before when we split up over his lack of appreciation for me as a person. This year, for my birthday I wasnt expecting a gift as we had no money, but he made no effort to make it a special day what so ever; i still got up about 5 hours before he did, he took about an hour to wake up the finally remember to say glad birthday, not even a stupid homemade card or a silly tune with a lit candle, or a suggestion to go for a nice walk... nothing to make the day special. I just feel I've given this relationship every chance - we moved here for him to be home and for us to have a better lifestyle. I adore him very much - I wouldn't have arrive this far if I didn't... how do you decide when its time to jack it in? We've been together for 6 years...

Resolved Question: A question that will get a lot of people pissed, but well I cant help it?

A very dear pal of mine the other day, an American, referred to me, as an "African-Portuguese", to which I replied: "What did you just say?" lol And then I went on to further explain that in Europe we don't do that, and that subsequently I am Portuguese period, because in Europe we go by what our passport says, and it's about nationality more than it is about ethnic origin. An African descent person in either Spain, Portugal or England is just, Spanish, Portuguese or English. In Europe we don't need to wear a tag on our foreheads, we make it simple we don't do that. That is an American tag, so it nice of got me pissed at first, first that he didnt know that, and second, that he wanted to transport it onto me. Later I realized that I had to respect his possess views of the world, the ones below which he was born, understand and just explain how it works where I arrive from. "There is nothing about Africa neither on my ID card, nor on my passport, because I was born in Portugal, and lived my life there, and in every frankness I have never even been to Africa, and whereas I am just as fond of my African origins as I am of my Portuguese ones, I am simply Portuguese, and not "African-Portuguese", because that doesn't exist. That's an American thing that you Americans do. But the relax of the world doesn't. And to be quite honest, it's not that I give any importance to being Portuguese either, it just happens to be what's on both my passport and ID card! So my question to you is: Why is it that the land of the free so fixated in branding, tagging and cataloging people so much!? What if I go to the US, what will people call me within the realm of their society? Latino, because I'm from a Latin speaking country, African-American, because I'm mulatto, (even though I am obviously not American lol). Seriously, and who the F... cares, other than, again, Americans?? Haven't they, Americans, learned anything from Charlize Theron's statement? Before acquiring the American nationality as well, she was simply African, period. She was born in South Africa, so she was African, not "Euro-African" like Americans would probably call her according to their logic, given that she is white. Facts are she was just African, because that's how it works with the relax of the world: people go by what their passport says. And now the only reason why she has called herself an African-American was because in the mean time she did acquire the American nationality, which does give her a double nationality (which might have made a few red neck heads' explode I'm sure). Seriously why is it that Americans feel this need to brand themselves and the relax of this world as if we were every cows that HAVE to belong to a speciphic heard? Because mind, origins wise, some of us simply dont. look my family is so mixed by now, that originally we could just be a map of the world (its not just African and Portuguese blood that goes through my veins), and do Americans even know about this, about people like me? Or maybe they don't, because they are just too busy branding the cows. And mind, us the relax of the world do have things like History and cultural and ethnic origin diversity, and issues that arrive with it too, in buckets. It's not just the US that is a racial melting pot anymore, and it's not just the US that has had and still has racial issues to solve. However, we just don't use tags, because that would make life unnecessarily complicated, and at times also unfair. We simply dont do that to ourselves in Europe, it's already as difficult as it is sometimes why make it stupidly complicated? Tagging oneself should be the most stupid and dumbest fault a human being can commit against himself, and not to mention a really confusing one too! But if you can give me a reasonable explanation why I wont say another word about it, and even give you a best anwer if it sounds plausible the enough. Anyway, thank you. @ By famous Gilbert: I didnt want to receive many answers, dear, just the one, the right one, and I think I just did. Posting a long question is actually a great way of making sure that you are not going to receive plunged with piles of useless crap, like your answer just was. Tk u. lol

Hi! I 'am portuguese, and a wile ago, I met a nice girl from New York that came to Portugal to study a semester in my College.

He's, nice of silent, shy with a baby face, beautifully red lips, golden brown eyes and a soft voice . Anyway, she told me he is cute and that she loves the contrast of his "raven hair" against it's fair skin. I translated it as being "black hair", but what does it really mean? Does it have a different meaning? I am nice of embarrassed to ask her. Tank you.

Resolved Question: I hung up on my BF through disappointment and the lack of being able to respond, what should I do now?

First of every I'll give a little history and some facts. We are both male. I am faithful and 100% honest with my partner. We had been friends for approximately 6 years before we formed a relationship. We had a few dates, before I took him on a short notice holiday to Portugal for a few days to give him a breather from a rather tense home life. He had been in a 9 year relationship previously, where he was one day abandoned, then ignored. This relationship ended approximately one year ago. He is still in touch with his ex's family and has recently gotten back in touch with his ex partner. We live 52 miles away from each other. I steer, he doesn't, but there are train stations within 2 minutes walking distance from my home and a short bus ride from his, yet he has never arrive to visit me without me picking him up and driving back. He hasn't even been to my home in the last 6 months and he promised this would change, but it hasn't. He still lives with his mom and ex-stepfather. I have my possess place in an exclusive town in the UK. I work two jobs and he doesn't work at every. He doesn't like my friends very much and I believe, that through his possess insecurities, he has completely mis-judged them. He didn't want to join me at Christmas, or the New Year and I ended up rather drunk and he hated that and said I shouldn't be drinking so much. He also dumped me around September time, as he didn't feel in control. He said it was nothing I was doing wrong and he had a lot of stress in his life and a relationship just complicated things. Of course I was devastated and couldn't understand. After a few weeks though, he called and said he missed me and would like to look me and "look how things go." To this day, this relationship status has remained the same, so whether or not we are together, you'll have to judge that, but I continued to look him as my only one and treat him as my partner. The most recent events have been... I haven't seen him in the last 14 days. I keep trying to, but he tells me he "might" be having coffee with the ex's brother, either Thursday or Friday, but this gets postponed on and on, or he's going with a pal to her hospital appointment, etc... He has also been sifting through his ex partner's Facebook profile, trying to find proof that he had been cheating on him before the relationship had ended. He calls me to seek comfort, but of course I think this is not healthy for him. He then had a bit of a shock when he found evidence of this, but he continued the whole night trying to find more. The following day (Saturday), I had been trying to call at regular 1 or 2 hour intervals, but he never answered. Some friends had invited me to go out locally to a few bars, but I declined expecting to be able to go look my partner. However, by 9.45pm I had still heard nothing and no return call. So, I called my friends and said I would catch them up and went out. At 10.15pm my mobile rang and it was him. I asked how he was feeling, given the recent findings (which I wasn't glad about), he said that more was found. I explained that I'd been trying to receive in touch every day and he said he had fallen asleep, because he was up every night until 10.30am on facebook and he then asked where I was and what I was doing. I said that as I'd not heard anything from him, I'd decided to go for a few drinks with friends.... to which he clip in and said "Oh!!! So, it me or beer now, is it?" I was a little surprised and I didn't think it was deserved. I could feel this was going to be the start of an argument. So, stuck for words, I just hung up. He hasn't attempted to call or text. He has blocked me, my family and my friends on facebook and as disappointed I was in myself for hanging up, he's taken the childishness one huge step further. What should I do, given the circumstances?

Voting Question: Opinion on veganism? Good or bad? lol?

Hey there people! So I'm hoping you can help me out here. I decided to go vegan in October, and am at the moment living in Portugal. The family I'm with doesn't understand my decision, they think it's unhealthy, pointless, and just depriving myself of good food. I need some back-up. Their arguments are that cows produce milk without having babies, and the environment isn't affected much by consuming animals or their products. I'm 15 and that's why they don't think its very healthy. But actually I feel fine, I make sure I receive enough B12 in my diet and definitely iron, calcium, and protein. They also argued that if I REALLY want to do something about the environment, I should be out there cleaning up the world, and not going vegan because it hardly does anything. Something about if I really cared about the world I would not buy things made in China or by kids in Africa or something... but uh, sorry LOL. That didn't really make sense to me. OFCOURSE I care about the kids in Africa and China and stuff! And I do everything I can to avoid those products. They also said something about never using the computer or technology because that's how I really help the world, but I don't use it in excess and always be careful about the amount of time I spend using it. I like art, so that's a good substitute for time on the computer. IDK, I don't really understand how we ended up with technology and every, but please if you can, help. I fully respect others choice to eat meat and dairy products, and so I expect to be respected as well. I need some back-up for teen vegans. Had kinda difficult day today, but if I can just gain their respect them I'm sure it'll every be back to the norm. Thanks so much for your help and sorry if this is long. May the world be peaceful. (Ps, I made a fair deal to at least TRY anything thats not meat--because this is a cultural experience-- but just not eat it constantly. Isn't that a fair deal?)

Resolved Question: Do I even need to prove I have sufficient funds to visit Portugal as a U.S citizen?

I'm visiting family and wont be staying in a hotel. I also know I wont ever have to break the bank while of the duration of my stay since most of my needs are already provided by family. I know every the basics like you can't stay for more than 90 days as a visitor, blah blah blah so please don't tell me that as it is not the answer I'm looking for.. Do I even need to prove I have "sufficient funds" or can I just tell whoever asks me I'm staying with family? So far, I have the passport and ticket ready. Conclusion: 1) Do I even need to prove I have sufficient funds to visit Portugal as a tourist with family? 2) If I do need to prove I have sufficient funds, does an active credit card count? 3) Do I need any other SPECIFIC documents, applications or whatever? Side question out of curiosity: What are the penalties from overstaying besides deportation? Thanks, Liss :) P.S, how and what other ways I can use to prove I have sufficient funds? Bank Statement?

Resolved Question: Do you believe in the decriminalization (not legalization) of drugs in this country?

With billions of tax payer dollars spent each year on the ever failing "War on Drugs", our already overcrowded prison system, and the rate of demand vs. supply in America and most other countries, plus the damage of throwing someone in prison and tearing loving families apart for a first-time simple possession, would it not more likely dramatically help the issue to decriminalize drugs and treat addiction with counseling and rehabilitation services. An outpatient rehab costs ten times less than to home someone in prison. There is also the issue of personal choice. I myself do not use drugs or even drink, but I feel if a grown American man or lady chooses to arrive home and smoke a joint, opium, whatever, it's their choice. As long as they are not pushing it on anyone else or neglecting their kids. Just because every of us may not necessarily agree with the use of drugs, shouldn't we show tolerance to those who do? I think it was Portugal who “decriminalized” drugs ten years ago. Since then, the unemployment rate has decreased, crime had decreased (especially violent crime), the spread of STDs and other communicable diseases has significantly decreased, and their prison system and the tax payer money spent on it every day is in much better order. ***Please answer seriously after considering my question with an open mind! ***
