Which is the best institute for learning dance in this world
Well, in the US there is no set "rating" of dancers.

Once a year, minimum, exams will be performed by examiners from either the UK or Canada.

I'd choose the juvenile offenders. You have a better chance of succeeding and making a difference over a short period of time, such as a summer. It's very laudable to try to help get prostitutes off the street. Many start so very young. But the psychological issues that they deal with and the baggage they carry really necessitates building trust over a long period of time.

Good question. Although you are over the 1 year limit, an immigration attorney may be able to get your green card renewed if circumstances were unusual. You should, of course, first CHECK with USCIS and see if your green card is still valid. It MAY be.

My American Amigos - As an "outsider" I would be interested to know exactly why so many of you really dislike Obama. Did you always dislike him/what he stood for? Did he let you down with policies you dislike...?
When I first heard Obama speak, well before his nomination, I thought he was a great speaker. I knew NOTHING about his political views at that point outside of the fact that he was a democrat. I think that was the problem with many. We didn't know him. As a person, I'm sure he's very likable, but as a politician and as a leader, I can't stand the man at this point.

Over the course of 1 year, 5 to 8 out of 100 typical couples who rely on the Pill to prevent pregnancy will have an accidental pregnancy. Of course, this is an average figure and the chance of getting pregnant depends on whether you take your birth control pills every day. The Pill is an effective form of birth control, but even missing 1 day increases the chance of getting pregnant.

We, as a people, find reason after reason for it and THAT is what has contributed most to the world view of Americans. It's not what we do...it's how we perceive ourselves. Any bit of...

How long does alcohol remain in your system
When alcohol is ingested, the body begins to metabolize it.

Because it takes time for alcohol to enter your bloodstream after you drink it, your blood alcohol level can actually rise for a time after you’ve had your last drink.

Do you think our heterosexual society makes homosexuality a "problem" when it really should not be? For example, I often hear people say: "He's gay you know? Really?" as if it was something bad or wrong.
Not anymore. I often hear people say "He's a liberal, you know?" "Really?" or "He's a presbyterian, you know?" "Really?" I think it's simply curiosity. Some people will have reactions to it (as they would to him being liberal or presbyterian). So what?
And by the way, it's not "our heterosexual society". Our...

If he comes on a visa waiver and stays, he can be deported after 30 days.

Have you ever lost anyone?
I lost a brother. He was killed by a drunk driver who happened to be an illegal alien. He left behind a legal immigrant wife (Guatemalan) and 2 small sons. The illegal alien gave a false name and identification and was released to his family. They all disappeared. He's never resurfaced and has probably moved on to another state. He had no driver's license and no insurance.

Sex isn't love. Don't be so fast substitute sexuality for romance. Once that bridge is crossed, you lose something special. Enjoy that very short and precious time when touching hands can be the most sexually exciting thing in the world.
I think that is why the book (and movie) Twilight has been so appealing to teens. It's speaking to that intense love that has nothing to...

None of these work. Some people naturally metabolize drugs faster than others. Those who "use" occasionally can also metabolize drugs faster than those who are chronic users. The only "flush" that seems to have some merit is repeated IV saline solution flushes. Everything else is wishful thinking -- either provided by someone who wants to sell you something or who had...

I don't know how to answer this. He's committed a felony, so you are asking whether he should admit to committing the felony or continue committing it. Immigration fraud is one of those deportable offenses --- even if he should become a green card holder.
My best advice is that he talk to an immigration lawyer. Lying on a federal visa application can get him deported....

Is there a GOOD EFFECTIVE herbal laxative that you use and happy about?
One of the best -- and cheapest and easiest -- is to simply drink some fruit juice. Grape juice or prune juice are excellent choices which often work very fast. There are also many herbs which can be used to help relieve constipation quickly as well.
Cascara sagrada, for instance, is an herb used primarily as a natural laxative. It's been used by Native Americans for centuries....

I had a volvo wagon that I loved. It had well over 250,000 miles on it and never gave me any trouble at all. I would have kept it, but when the passenger seat started disintegrating, my husband insisted on getting rid of it. I've never had a better car. I can't remember the year of it, but it was around 1988 I think.

Tell me 5 good reasons to become a Christian.
Why? Becoming Christian isn't about weighing your options or "what's in it for me?". If it were, nobody would be Christians because being a Christian comes with a high price tag on this earth and in this life. We are scorned, mocked and persecuted and live under expectations that are impossible for humans to fulfill. We strive always to be better people, with no earthly...

To those religious folks who are anti evolution, Big Bang and other science - Do your computer come to you via the efforts of holy men praying or by scientists' electrodynamic and quantum theory? If the latter, do you see any irony at all?

Theists, will you be joining Landover Baptist Church in reporting atheists to the FBI?
Why would any of us "theists" follow in the steps of what is obviously a cult representing itself as a baptist church?
Will any of you atheists be following the examples of Charles Manson or the Unabomber?
Get real.

Answer to:
Why do Democrats take everything so personally? Durring the election I would get comments from Democrats like I hate McCain, he is such a liar. I disagree with Obama on many things. But I still think he is a smart man.
I don't think all Democrats are like that, but the party does have a large number of 18-25 year olds, so it would be logical to assume that many have maturity issues. It's unfortunate when people from any party act that way.

Answer to:
My friends boyfriend's son just got out of rehab and moved in with them. She doesn't feel comfortable with his son around, but her boyfriend won't tell him to leave. They own the house together and she can't afford to move. Any suggestions?
The only options she has are either to grin and bear it until he does something she can press charges on or a restraining order, OR seek a court order forcing a sale on the house. It would be easier if they were married, but it's still possible to get such an order in most states.

Answer to:
Do the benefits which world religions give to us out-weigh any and all negatives? (placing aside whether or which God we believe in) and is there a place for religion in the modern world?
I think that depends on the individual and the religion. I've found no negatives in my religion, but of course, religion is very personal to me. I'm not much of a follower, so I'm very vocal when my personal beliefs are at variance with those of my church's leadership. One must always remember that only God is perfect. We, as humans, are flawed and religion is man made....

Answer to:
Is cutting a teenage girl's hair short appropriate punishment under any circumstance (in this case for poor grades, lying anf not following through on promises)?
Well, usually a parent will take away something that is "important" to the teen -- a privilege, a possession or something like that. I'd think that altering their physical appearance is rather personal, but I hesitate to judge the parent on that as I'm not privy to the whole situation. I, however, would never even have considered that as a punishment.

Brits: We are no different to the other 190 countries in the world according to a White House official. How do you feel about that?
(see link, and get your DVD player ready!)
I think that the disrespect shown to Gordon Brown wasn't intentional, but as no one here in the United States ever wants to be critical of the Obama administration, these sort of unintentional insults will probably continue for a while -- at least until someone in the administration takes control of actually learning the protocols involved in foreign diplomacy.
I apologize for the way...

I keep hearing how Obama is a elegant speaker! Since when is umm ok umm you see umm well ok umm it is like this umm elegant speaking?
He's a great teleprompter reader. I don't think that compares to the extemporaneous speaking of previous presidents, with all the stumbles and misspeaking which results when one has to speak and think at the same time. He does, however, come across very polished when he reads his teleprompter speeches.

I'm 45 and may be pregnant. I'm paranoid about my health during the child birth process, pushing and blood clots. Can I choose to have a c-section instead of a vaginal birth?
If your OB/Gyn feels it's in your best interest. A C-section entails a lengthy recuperation and the inherent risks of surgery. You will need to see if the risks of one outweighs the risks of the other.
Good luck and all the best for your pregnancy.
Answer to:
Why does a person feel it is ok to cheat on fiance or spouse , etc.... and not tell other person what they did and be honest? Why not be honest!

I have been with my boyfriend for a year and we havent said I love you yet. I love him and I want to tell him that I love him but I am afraid that he will freak out. I am not sure he feels the same.
I think it's time for you to find out, right? Say it and see what happens. The best thing that could happen is to find out he loves you too. The worst thing that could happen is to find out that he doesn't. If he doesn't after a whole year, then you can reconsider whether or not there is a real future in your relationship.
