To any old hippies out there?

i remember a song my parents used to play when i was a kid.i dont know the title and i thought it was by country joe and the fish but i can't seem to find it amongst any of their stuff.what i do remember is all the words so here are some of them;.......bring flowers and lace them around her braid hair,bring leaves from the mountain and boxes of air,bring food and bring wine and things we can share and the moon will shine in her eyes.she will stand in the sea with her body like sand, and dolphins will come kiss the palms of her hands.as she opens her arms to the water and land,her smiles will colour the sky......iwould really appreciate finding out.my parents don't remember they're too burnt out.....ha ha



To any old hippies out there?

To any old hippies out there?

Would Like Opinions on the "Braider's License" Required In Some States?

I live in Texas and I am a braider. I took a 4 1/2 day braiders course and got my braiders license so that I'd be able to work in a shop, and braid hair without being fined and whatnot. What do you all think of the braiders license requirement in some states? I just wanted other people's opinions, I personally think we should have one so that we can be treated as professionals not just people who do it out their homes. What do you think, please no stupid answers, thanks.



Would Like Opinions on the "Braider's License" Required In Some States?

I personally keep my hair braided and I do go to people's home to get it done. I personally don't think that alot of braiders are going to go out of there way to get a license for it. The only difference of having a license is that u can charge the higher salon prices and u are totally responsible for all damages that a person may sustain. Most people I know braid hair on the side like on weekends or something like that. I don't think that by having a license makes u more qualified than the person at home braiding. It's simply just documented that u completed a course. Good luck with everything!

Why don't Christian women just SHUT UP!???!?

1 Corinthians chapter 14:



As in all the congregations of the saints, women should remain silent in the churches. They are not allowed to speak, but must be in submission, as the Law says. If they want to inquire about something, they should ask their own husbands at home; for it is disgraceful for a woman to speak in the church.



1 Timothy chapter 2:



Also that women should adorn themselves modestly and sensibly in seemly apparel, not with braided hair or gold or pearls or costly attire but by good deeds, as befits women who profess religion. Let a woman learn in silence with all submissiveness. I permit no woman to teach or to have authority over men; she is to keep silent.



In 1 Peter 3:7 we find: "Husbands, in the same way be considerate as you live with your wives, and treat them with respect as the WEAKER partner and as heirs with you of the gracious gift of life, so that nothing will hinder your prayers."



There God says it and COMMANDS it. Shut up!! (Christians only)



Why don't Christian women just SHUT UP!???!?

Um maybe cause the Bible was written by males with their own agenda and not by G*d.



But it is lovely how many Christians pick and choose want they want from the Bible.



Why don't Christian women just SHUT UP!???!?

LOL!! they cant



Why don't Christian women just SHUT UP!???!?

any type of women cant shut up, its just how they are



Why don't Christian women just SHUT UP!???!?

Ha ha ha, the King laughs The King Applause!



Why don't Christian women just SHUT UP!???!?

hope that helps when the building is on fire and u don't get out cuz no1 tells ya. :) don't make stupid comments without at least taking the worst case scenario into consideration.



Why don't Christian women just SHUT UP!???!?

if you had any understanding of the times that the bible was written you would understand how stupid and out of context those comments are. Now either learn or SHUT UP yourself



Why don't Christian women just SHUT UP!???!?

just as soon as you join the church. Some rules are specific for place and time. Women are no longer considered uneducatable, nor property. Funny that!



Why don't Christian women just SHUT UP!???!?

Basically, this means that if wives have a question about Scripture, they should ask their husbands. The reason for this,is because the husband has a responsibility from God to keep his wife faithful to the Word and teach his household about the truth of God's Word. It's a huge responsibility that he has to answer for if he strays one bit. Also, this encourages the couple and their children to study Scripture at home and learn about it together. It brings the family unit closer together. The man is the head of the house, but he is also told to love his wife as he loves himself. It's not to treat her as a doormat.



God bless you.



Why don't Christian women just SHUT UP!???!?

just read it again %26amp; analyze to whom did Paul addressed that passages? to d women in that area only...it's not for all d christian women around d world...



everyone has d right to speak most esp when he/she speaks about d truth...



do u know d freedom of expression?? it's not for men alone...



Why don't Christian women just SHUT UP!???!?

if u aren't a christian then y r u reading the bible? if u are a christian then how can u be so judgemental.



1 timothy chapter 2 mentions a word u didn't see SUBMISSIVENESS aka how they submit to their husbands. not how they lead their life



1 peter 3:7 they are supossed to be the weaker partner because men (unlike you) take care of them and suport them and their children.



also have you read the book RUTH? Ruth was married and her husband died. her sister in law and mother were strong in their faith so they could take care of eachother. in Ruths faith in God (as being a women) was blessed and became remarried.



there is also the story of ESTER. she married the king and she saved her people aka jews by going to the king ( head man of the nation) and asked him to not kill his people. back then if a women talked out of her place and wasn't summoned, their were killed. God proected her because she had FAITH and SPOKE OUT to the KING.



Why don't Christian women just SHUT UP!???!?

coz. this ain't a church. it is a yahoo looser for athei-twits anonymous.



I hope every Christian woman alive, eats you up and spits you out like the trash on earth you represent.



I love you. *kiss* God Bless You.



Why don't Christian women just SHUT UP!???!?

yea we will when you do



Why don't Christian women just SHUT UP!???!?

You are an idiot. Enough said.



Why don't Christian women just SHUT UP!???!?

Typical men!!! They always complain about women. Please.



Why don't Christian women just SHUT UP!???!?

Wow, that would certainly make the world a lot more peaceful. No more fundie women talking their nonsense. Can you imagine?



Don't you love this... all the Christians cry, "You're taking it out of context!" Way too funny.



Why don't Christian women just SHUT UP!???!?

LOL! Chicks come out of the woodwork , for this one. If this was a personal forum, rather than an electronic one, the noise would be deafening.



Why don't Christian women just SHUT UP!???!?

i copy and pasted this from a previous post I made that is still relevant here.



The first verse is speaking to a specific audience. It was written because the women in that church were interupting the reading of scripture.



The second verse is taken out of context quite often. If you look, he also speaks to men in the next couple verses. Husband and wives are supposed to be team. They each have things to contribute and if they love and honor each other, it makes the marriage much easier.



I Corinthian 11: doesn't degrade women at all. In fact, for those that say that woment must be silent in church, I use this verse, because It says, "but every woman that prayeth or prophesieth" it doesn't say if.



These verses were written by men yes, but inspired by God. When read in context they make a whole lot more sense. Jesus doesn't show favoritism.



There are plenty of other sciptures that show how women ministered to Jesus. They were the first at his ressurection, they told the disciples of Jesus' ressurection, they prepared his body after the crucifixion. They were intrical parts of His life.



The Bible doesn't discriminate, only those that interpret it.



Why don't Christian women just SHUT UP!???!?

Some Christan women are GOD'S Hand Madien's and Anointed for specific duties in the LORD'S Work! .....You don't have a spiritual right to tell women to shut up!....What you did was found a scritpure in the Bible and you took it out of context to kick around to women, what you don't know is (Paul had to put the church women unto subjection of authoruty by law at the church of Corinthians because they were out of order etc. etc. etc......You also don't know that there were Women which ministered with Paul in the ministry (Phil. 4: 3), There are also Women who GOD Anoints to Prophesy (Acts: 2: 17, 18)...GOD instructs Prophesy by all Men %26amp; Women (1 Cor. 14: 31), GOD shows No Partiality Towards His Handmaidens (women) For There is Neither MALE OR FEMALE Spiritually In GOD'S Eyes For all are One In Christ JESUS! (Galatians 3: 28).........The lists goes on and on!......You Need To Be Spiritually Educated And KNOW WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT!....You Shut Up And Go To Church And Humble Yourself And Learn And Stop KICKING SCRIPTURES AROUND TO JUSTFY YOURSELF BECAUSE YOU'RE NOT A BENEFIT TO GOD!......Ps. you tell the women judges, senators, policewomen, doctors, lawyers, etc. etc. to shut up and see what happens!....



Why don't Christian women just SHUT UP!???!?

Im in the mood for some tofu.



Why don't Christian women just SHUT UP!???!?

If woman should shut up, then why did Jesus appear and talk to Mary (a woman) ONLY before He ascended to His father God. (John 20:15-17)



Don't read your bible for pure argument.



Why don't Christian women just SHUT UP!???!?

They can't help it LOL, it's in their nature.



Why don't Christian women just SHUT UP!???!?

I don't understand why anyone who is non-believer sits around reading the text of believers just to take it out of context and start an argument. Obviously you are curious about how God can make your life better, or you wouldn't be reading. Maybe you should go to church and talk to someone.



God also commands that we put no other before him.... hummm, think about that. He also commands us not to judge, but aren't you judging us because we are Christian women? Just so you know, there are many POWERFUL, Christian women in the Bible, but I guess you forgot to read that part.



Proverbs 18: 2



"Fools have no interest in understanding, they only want to air their own opinions." NLT



Why don't Christian women just SHUT UP!???!?

God also states that when man and women are joined together they become as one. If her husband allows her to speak, teach work, she is allowed, But not to preach!! But I do agree with you there are to many women taking the mans position. In the world as well as in church! But who allows it to happen?



Why don't Christian women just SHUT UP!???!?

It's not necessarily that we should shut-up, but we should be in submission to our husbands. And our husbands should love us and treat us with kindness. I personally believes that a woman does not have the right to preach in a church. I do believe how-ever that they can spread the good news and teach from the bible. We are the weaker partner,and should realize this. But If God is not the head of the household and you don't believe in God, then one should not use scriptural passages in the bible to down grade women. Eve was made from Adam's rib. From his side. She was to be equal to Adam. If my husband treats me with love and respect,he gets it in return.The bible shows man how he should treat his wife, with LOVE.

Any suggestions for a "How To" project?

I can't draw or any origami stuff..I was going to do, How to braid hair but someone else is doing that. PLease help! I'm n 8th grade and we are not allowed to cook.



Any suggestions for a "How To" project?

What do YOU like to do? Is there some hobby that interests you?



Do you knit?



Play soccer?



Swim?



Build things?



The easiest "how to" projects are those things you already know how to do!



(P.S. A real funny way to go is to turn it into a how NOT to -- like how NOT to get dressed in the morning!)



Any suggestions for a "How To" project?

lol we had to do that!!! i did how to give someone a manicure :)



Any suggestions for a "How To" project?

Do you know any card games? Maybe a "how to play Spades."

Was given one cent large coin dated 1853. what would it be worth?

there is a woman on front with braided hair, seems to be in a bun.



Was given one cent large coin dated 1853. what would it be worth?

1853 cent is $16.00 in good grade



and up to $175.00 in uncirculated grade.



This is from the 2007 Red Book, it should give you a good range depending on your coins condition.



Was given one cent large coin dated 1853. what would it be worth?

Take it to a coin dealer. They would know



Was given one cent large coin dated 1853. what would it be worth?

I lost one that was on a money clip. I paid $ 180.00 for mine but it depends on where it was minted and the condition.



Was given one cent large coin dated 1853. what would it be worth?

Take it to a coin collector if its in good shape it may be worth lots of money.



Was given one cent large coin dated 1853. what would it be worth?

1853 was one of the last years of large cents. They were discontinued in 1857. As with all coins, the condition is key. In an average "nice" condition, fine in coin speak, your coin is probably worth around $20. Better condition means more money, but it takes experience to accurately grade it. Find a coin collector friend to grade it for you, or get a copy of the Red Book and follow their grading descriptions unbiasedly, (people always want to grade their own coins high). Also, any damage to a coin dramatically affects the value, like major scratches, corrosion, or a hole.



Was given one cent large coin dated 1853. what would it be worth?

Take it to your local coin shop for an idea of what it is worth then list it Ebay for twice the amount.

How Can I Get More Connected?

I have an 18 year old sister, but i'm only 11 and she doesnt care about me. ( well she does i guess but she dont show it and dont care too much ) I know she's older and theres a big gap. She always say i wont understand but she doesnt know what i've been through. She will just throw low blow after low blow. I mean aren't sisters suppose to be there to gossip, tell secrets, braid hair or is that just the movies?



How Can I Get More Connected?

Seven years is a big difference in age. You don't have the same things in common. I would not worry to much, I would make my own friends and as you get older, you will understand more of what your sister is talking about. I have a four year difference between my sister and myself, and we didn't do a lot together, but as I got older we did more together. You have fun growing up, and forget about her, she'll wonder how come you grew up so fast without her.



How Can I Get More Connected?

Sometimes sisters wont really get along with each other. but time will come if you are ready, lets say you've mature enough, then maybe you and your sister would get close.



How Can I Get More Connected?

Yeah, shes a jerk. Welcome to the real world. Just hang in there, it does get better.



How Can I Get More Connected?

Sometimes people, even if they're in the same family, don't fit.



I have an older brother who's a full 11 years older than I am. Of course when we were younger and he was in high-school, I was his kid sister who bothered him and he wanted nothing to do with me.



We didn't really get close until he left for college. He would stay on weekends and it would be an event, he was super fun to hang out with, and now he's 27 and I'm 16 and we're best friends. I even get a long with his crowd and have been deemed "the coolest little sister ever"



Just be patient, she has some maturing to do and so do you. One day she'll turn around, but it might be that your personalities just don't fit. My art teacher has a twin sister who HATES her.



How Can I Get More Connected?

try telling your sister that! That you want to have more of a "sisterly" relationship. Ask her if she will join you in doing thigns you guys can do together despite the age difference. Invite her to come to the mall and ask her to help you pick something out. Maybe ask her to help you with your homework. Good luck



How Can I Get More Connected?

Dont worry... once you are a little older (not saying that you are really young; you seem very mature for an 11 year old!!) then the age gap will seem a little less important... and you will notice that you have more in common than you think.



My Sister and I are just as you say above, really good friends... but that didnt happen the day she was born. I'm an older sister, and I used to treat my little sister really bad. There's a 6 year difference between us and we are now BEST friends.



How Can I Get More Connected?

Sounds like your more mature then your 18 yr. old sister! She just doesn't know what she's missing does she? Good Luck honey and you need to be proud of who you are I would have loved to have had a sister like you. Your right I would gossip with you and all that lol.



How Can I Get More Connected?

I have 2 older sisters. One is 6 years older %26amp; the other is 2 years older. Growing up I was very close to my sister that is 2 years older (we are still close), but as I mutured %26amp; got my own intrests, my oldest sister %26amp; I found out that we have a lot in common %26amp; are now just as close. I think that you should get your own intrest %26amp; keep trying to be a friend to your sister. She will come around, %26amp; come to value you. It may take a while, but let her know you care, will be there if she needs you, %26amp; love her.

I am wondering that is she right or not?

I have received a message today from a lady and I am wondering that is she right or not?



Message: This is a quote from what you sent in an e-mail to me 鈥淏ut I still confused for why I should stay in a marriage if I can't love my husband anymore and I just feel like I have to leave him again if my love for him is gone. So, please tell me what can I do"? Part of your duty to him is to never divorce him. Love is not just a feeling but also a commitment to stand by your husband no matter what. Leaving for a short time, which is called 芒鈧搒eparation芒鈧? is perfectly fine. The only problem was when you were vulnerable you became intimate with another man while being married. Stay with your husband not based on your feelings but to receive the blessing of God and your marriage will begin to prosper.



1 Peter 3:1-6



1Wives, in the same way be submissive to your husbands so that, if any of them do not believe the word, they may be won over without words by the behavior of their wives, 2when they see the purity and reverence of your lives. 3Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as braided hair and the wearing of gold jewelry and fine clothes. 4Instead, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God's sight. 5For this is the way the holy women of the past who put their hope in God used to make themselves beautiful. They were submissive to their own husbands, 6like Sarah, who obeyed Abraham and called him her master. You are her daughters if you do what is right and do not give way to fear.



My answer:



Thanks for writing and your advice! But I am wondering that should wives submissive to their husbands no matter what, even without mutual love? One of my best friend (she is a Christian) who tell me that it is wrong to stay with my husband if I don't love him and especially it is wrong to accept his love when he's trying to make love to me - actually have sex with me. That's the main point for me to think about I have to leave him again as soon as possible because I will be going crazy to doing this with him and it is unacceptable for me now. I don't mean to against you or God, but it is just the way it is. I am sorry for saying this but it is the truth.



P.S. I loved my husband before but any more now but love him in family way.



I have a story on my page here: http://360.yahoo.com/my_profile-.1D8ZsM8... so, please give me some of your opinion and thanks!



I am wondering that is she right or not?

If you no longer love your husband and you know he has treated you badly, get a divorce and go to Harry. You will be doing it for yourself and your husband, because he deserves to have a wife that is in love with him, and not just out of obligation. If you stay, nothing will change and you will be miserable. But don't leave him just to be with Harry, leave because you want to be independant, don't get married right away. Enjoy the freedom of finding out who you are and what you desire for yourself. When you have figured that out, then you will be ready to fully commit to someone else.



I am wondering that is she right or not?

leave him already..



I am wondering that is she right or not?

Yes you are wrong women are not made to be submissive so take your bible thumping beliefs and stick them where the sun don't shine



I am wondering that is she right or not?

i think she has the right idea but she is looking in the wrong direction. love is a choice u have to choose to love ur husband and this is a choice u must make BEFORE you get married. that is the problem with people today is they all go on feeling and that i not what marriage is all about. i would say that she should stay with her husband learn to appreciated and love him for him and not what she thinks she wants him to be. IF their is no way she can do that(which means she did not try hard enough) then she must leave because it is not just about her, he is also involved and she to stay faithful. she quotes from the bible but she does not know the real meaning of it. if she wants to she might need a consular for some help. good luck with this.



I am wondering that is she right or not?

What are the vows you say when a man and woman are married? If you are of certain faith it is said you are only allowed to divorce for certain reasons and I know one of them to be catholic. That is something you would need to check out if it is for religious reasons. Are their children involved,are the two of you constantly fighting,is he abusive,you???? These would all be reasons to get out and to get help,if not and u 2 have just grown apart and cannot get counseling or whatever to salvage the marriage then it is time to move on.
