How many flowers should Joanna estimate she needs for this wedding?

Joanne works for a florist. She needs to estimate how many flowers to order for 12 wedding bouqeets. She did similiar bouqets for two weddings in the past. For on she used 72 roses for 5 similar bouets and for the other, she made 16 similar bouqets using 243.

How many flowers should Joanna estimate she needs for this wedding?
The numbers don't quite match, but let's use hte higher ratio to be safe.





243/16 roses per bouquet means 12 bouquets will require


12*243/16 = 183 roses
Reply:Well in the first one she used (72/5) 14.4 roses in each bouquet. in the second wedding she used (243/16) 15.18 roses per bouquet. I would average the 2 previous weddings together (14.4+15.18)/2 to get 14.79 roses.


12 wedding bouquets at 14.79 roses (12x14.79)=177.48,178 roses.
Reply:(243-72)/(16-5) = 15.5


y = 15,5x +b


72= 15.5(5) +B --%26gt; b = -5.5


y = 15.5x- 5.5


y(12) = 15.5*12 -7.5 = 181

Greetings,





assuming a linear relationship between the number of bouquets and the number of flowers





f = mb + c, where m is the slope of the line and c is the intercept





72 = 5m + c


243 = 16m + c





subtracting the two equations gives





171 = 11 m


m = 15.5





72 = 5*15.5 + c, substituting back into the first equation gives


c = 72 - 5*15.5


c = -5.5





f = 15.5b - 5.5, for 12 bouquets


f = 15.5(12) - 5.5


f = 180.5





She would need 181 flowers for 12 bouquets





Regards
Reply:Joanne has more experience that a lot of people. Why can't she figure it out? I would know what I want without her experience. You go with what you want. Simplicity is the key, I think. The plain and simple with a ribbon or etc. would be perfect. It would be elegant. It doesn't have to cost a lot or weigh you down carrying it down the isle to be the right thing.
Reply:72 roses for 5 wedding bouquet.


On the average, 72/5 =12.4 roses for 1 wedding.


In the other situation, 243 roses for 16 weddings.


On the average, 243/16 = 15 %26amp; 3/16 for 1 wedding.


So, based on these 2 numbers, for 12 weddings, she needs anywhere between 144 and 180 roses.

I am seeking a type of craft flower making that a friend showed me back in the late 1960's in grade school.

My friend's grandmother used to buy it, believe it or not, at an animal feed store in Southern California. The flowers were made like this: You took very thin bendable wire and formed the flower petals by bending the wire. Then you would dip the wire into some type of liquid plastic and pull it out and the liquid would sort of gel and would fill in the petals and would be completely dry in about 30 minutes. What you would have was a wire flower outline with hardened (not brittle) rubbery see-through colored plastic that would make the petals. I don't know how else to describe it. I do not know if the materials were part of a kit or if you bought them indiviually. Does anyone have any idea of what this craft is called or remember anything like this? Any help would be great!

I made those once, I remember buying a kit. I had forgotten what they were called, but I found a link with a discussion about them that you will find interesting. Apparently you can get a version of them at Michaels.

Is there any good website for identifying flowers and looking at virtual bouquets?

I need to pick out flowers for a wedding, but I am not familiar with types of flowers and would love to look at a website that showed me pictures of individual flowers and let me put together my own virtual bouquets. If anyone knows of any that would be great! Thank you

A rectangular flower bed 3m wide, and 5m long.....?

A rectangluar flower bed, 3m wide and 5m long is surrounded by a sidewalk of uniform width. If the area of the sidewalk is 48m*2, what are the outside dimensions of the sidewalk?








i know the answer, i just don't know how to show my work for it

A rectangular flower bed 3m wide, and 5m long.....?
Let x be the width of the sidewalk on each side. Adding x twice to both dimensions, the final outside dimensions will be:


2x + 3 (wide) by 2x + 5 (long).





+------------------+


| xxxxxxxxxx |


| x |. 3 * 5 .| x | (new width = 3 + x + x)


| xxxxxxxxxx |


+------------------+


.. (new length = 5 + x + x)





We are told the sidewalk area is 48m², but this doesn't include the inside flower bed. Add the flower bed area (3m x 5m = 15m²) and you get a total of 63m².





Using the dimensions of 2x + 3 wide by 2x + 5 long you should get an area of 63. In equation form:





(2x + 3)(2x + 5) = 63





Expand out with FOIL:


4x² + 10x + 6x + 15 = 63


4x² + 16x + 15 = 63





Subtract 63 from both sides:


4x² + 16x - 48 = 0





I'd divide everything by 4 to simplify things:


x² + 4x - 12 = 0





You can easily factor this as:


(x + 6)(x - 2) = 0





x = -6 or x = 2





Since you can't have the sidewalk with a negative width the sidewalk must be 2m wide on each side. Adding twice this to each dimension you have:


2x + 3 = 7m wide


2x + 5 = 9m long





Answer:


The outside dimensions are 7m x 9m
Reply:Find the area of the bed.





A=LW


A=5(3)


A=15 m^2 for bed





Then, subtract the area of sidewalk by the area of bed.





48-15=33





Find the factors of the sidewalk....





ANSWER = 11 meters long and 3 meters wide.


NCYS Show, How did it end?

I watched the NCys show on T.V lst night.(Wed) Our electricity went ou the last 5 minutes of the show. How did it end? Did the wife kill her husband, and if so , Why? Who killed the girl who was dropped on the spike? and why?


The one NCYS agent said that , You could see into the apartment of the people , where the husband , wife and stranger murder took place. Was this signifigant?Why the flowers?

NCYS Show, How did it end?
OK yes the wife did kill her husband, don't really know why she killed him. She told the woman that you didn't have to live with him so I guess he was abusing her. The red head girl killed the girl who fell. She said that she was trying to protect her friend. Did not know that it was a set up. He brought the flowers to say he was sorry. It was real good.

Do you think it's too early to fertilize in Chicago ?

My grass isn't green yet (of course) But some flowers are begining to show.

Do you think it's too early to fertilize in Chicago ?
You should be applying a pre-emergent selective herbicide now. Scotts has some good products out there that include fertilizer. If you want to be more earth friendly, Milorganite is very good, but doesn't have the weed control. It's not too early because the grass is still growing, you just can't see it. I don't know if you'll get snow again, but spreading fertilizer on a light skiff of snow is a good method of applying it. It looks nasty, but the snow helps to disolve the granules and the nutrients seep into the soil more evenly.
Reply:No, it's actually the perfect time to apply a first application of lawn fertilizer. Also, if you have crabgrass, you should plan on applying fertilizer and crabgrass preventer around May 1. Plan on a total of four applications of fertilizer throughout the growing season, but don't fertilize at all during the hot months.
Reply:Too early for weed preventer, but fertilizer can go on at anytime.

What can I do to show my husband how much I appreciate him?

I love it when he writes me love notes, sends me flowers, or gives me compliments. But I have no idea what guys like...please help me out with some ideas.

What can I do to show my husband how much I appreciate him?
I have been married for 14 years and the thing that gets


me going is when she is spontaneous. I come home and she says we are going out to dinner and then we come home and take a nice jacuzzi relax with drinks she put's on something nice and we make love. I also like when she call's just to say that she is thinking about me and can't wait till I get home. Just come in the room when he is watching TV and sit next to him and just tell him how sexy he is. Gift's don't matter to me at all! Just her and our kid's.
Reply:When he comes home . . . greet him with a beer and a kiss and a hug . . . clothing optional . . . if you have children you will have to dress conservative . . .





Have dinner ready . . . and allow him time to unwind from a hard days work.





Periodically, give him a long hug and kiss . . . when he least expect it.





Also, when it comes to sex, men are always horny . . . but sometimes we are too tired to act or take the initative . . . ladies please help out . . . because I know you need it as much as us.





Guys, this is not just a one way street. . . you have to appreciate your wives too.





Maybe after dinner . . . offer her to wash the dishes . . . not all the time . . . but once in while. Maybe during the weekend, periodically . . . cook her dinner . . . and don't make a mess . . . lol. Give her time to relax . . . soak in a tub with bubblebath . . . while you watch the kids or prepare something special for her. Also, if she is cooking . . . periodically get off your A**, go to the kitchen and give her a hug from behind.





Show love and respect to each other.
Reply:Just be yourself. Snuggle with him and tell him that you love him with all your heart. Tell him that you appreciate all he does for you. Communication, communication, communication is a key to a good marriage.

Good Luck
Reply:Sex and Food are the things guys respond to. Make him a romantic dinner and then show him how much you love him!





Good luck!
Reply:Sex ( the hot, nasty kind) is always good and then get him a beer and a steak..... or maybe some guy movies... the Rocky, Godfather, or Terminator series are a good start. It really depends on what he likes... how could you not know what he likes? That's pretty messed up if you think about it...
Reply:Maybe some oral pleasure.
Reply:take him out for lunch and visit him at his work
Reply:you should just do what u do. think of something very out of the ordinay for him, or if u want


u can also just give him a good massage when he comes home, make a good dinner without the kids (if got some, put them to sleep) and just have a great night for just the two of you and if he doesnt want, then dont have sex because it just seems as if ur doing all of that for sex, but if u do, play it smooth and just let things flow

Reply:What a lovely thought...just smile, give her great big hug, tell her you love her....and say a big thank you.





Most mums realise that their kids have big financial commitments these days and would rather see them secure than buy things that cost the earth. However, If you really want to buy her a small gift why not invest in a book of poetry. Find out discreetly what type of poetry she likes and look through the shelves at waterstones or WH Smiths. This would be something that would always remind her of you.
Reply:Perhaps you could do a bed and breakfast for both of your parents one morning. Wake up early, cook and surprise them by bringing it up to their room. I did this for my parents one morning before I got married: I made tea, toast and cut up fruits and brought it to their room. They loved it.

I got my mom a dishwasher to save her time though, for no occassion :]
Reply:Buy her groceries, wash her car or have it detailed, or clean her house.
Reply:Amusement park
Reply:Give her many heartfelt hugs and kisses. Tell her how much she is loved and appreciated. Moms are like that, gifts don't seem to mean as much to them as a simple hug : )
Reply:I take her to dinner now and then , sometimes lunch, but if your talking about mothers day, I gave her a spa day last year she liked it, not sure about this year, going old school this year, got to find out what she liked when she was young

Reply:you should surprise her by doing what she want and you have to show love and care for her, besides that today is summer why dont you try to take her on a vacation? and enjoy it .......
Reply:Have a small surprise perty in her name. Do the whole glitz and glamore thing and have people randomly give a toast to her while telling everyone how special she is to them. You don't have to get expensive but it's a cute way to show you appreciate her. I'll guarantee she never forgets it.

Guys like toys, food, and sex...not necessarily in that order.
Reply:The smallest things impress them the most. Think of something small he told you he likes and run with it. It shows him that you pay attention to him.

Reply:No object shows that. Your dedication to him and aiming to please him can. Think about what he likes. Is he a gadget man? Do you know what Ipod he might like or maybe some software he's been meaning to get but hasn't. Does he enjoy a particular actor or genre of movie? Get him a boxed set. What about tickets to a game he enjoys? Are you in Chicago? Find a sports bar he likes and take him there on a game night with a few friends and have dinner there. What's his favorite team? Get him a shirt, hat and mug to represent them. The possibilities are endless.
Reply:How about a masculine frame with your picture in it, for his desk or nightstand? Or...if he wears jewelry, a nice rope chain or simple ring. If he's a cowboy, urban or not, how about a pretty Bolo Tie, or cowboy hat? You can get really unusual pocket watches, if he might like that. A money clip or a lighter, with his initials engraved on it. If he's a Nascar fan, and you're near a track, you could get him a ride around the track in a real race car. from "The Richard Petty Driving Experience".

I want to go surprise her at work, what should i do? leave a flower? or give it to her myself ?
Well im a girl but i think you should give her the flower personally. or if you dont want to do that, leave the flower on the hood of her car with a note of love. you could also bring her lunch on her lunch break.
Reply:Do you really love her....send her a stripper
Reply:i think you should wiat for her after work and hand her the flowers yourself. it shows that you care more. not just leaving flowers on car. it could be from anyone. after you give her the flowers give her a hug as well
Reply:Go there with 12 different colors of roses, and make sure that they are hiding your face and just walk up to her and say a beautiful poem. Make sure get moms something to for accepting you dating her daughter.
Reply:Show up with flowers, if it does not work, all that it hast cost you is the price of the flower. Or give them to her Mum.
Reply:i would find something (like maybe you guys have a special song, or a special saying), some way for her to know it was you (even though that will probably be obvious, if you include your special thing it will be even cuter). leave it on a little note attached to some flowers (her favorite kind, if you know that. if not, roses are always romantic). She will be so happy, especially cause you drove up just to do it! good luck.

Help!in animal crossing wild world how to plant flower 16x16?
Well, i can't really give you a picture, but if you do what phyllis and pelly say until they give you the golden watering can, you should be fine. kee your town perfect (ie no trash and water you flowers) they will give you the golden can. plus, when you get a flower that is white (and looks like a dandalion) and is called a jacobs ladder, that means you have a perfect town. try planting flowers and just keep trying to plant trees in the right place. it took me about a month to get a perfect town. now my town is covered in flowers . too many.

I cant seem to find the design of the tattoo I want. I want a Jewish star with a Iris Flower attached to it?

Can someone show me somewhere I could find it or one you drew?





I am a 29 year old male, so I want something mascline.


I am Jewish and the Iris is a flower for my mother who passed away and her middle name was Iris

I cant seem to find the design of the tattoo I want. I want a Jewish star with a Iris Flower attached to it?
Try going to a tattoo parlor and have them design one for you. That way you can get something that is unique and also you can work it until you get something you really like/want.
Reply:I would just get in touch with a tattoo artist and have them draw it up for you, most of them nowadays have had a lot of art training and can draw it easily. Some places have a "draw deposit" so you don't just take their art and get it done somewhere else, so make sure you ask before hand, it does usually apply to the total cost of the tattoo. I would just find a picture of an Iris that you like so they get the right flower! lol, but I'm pretty sure they will know what a Jewish star looks like already! I always think it is better to get a custom peice than the ready to go flash. Good luck and happy inking!
Reply:what you can do is find a picture of a jewish star that you like and then an iris flower that you like and bring it to the tattoo parlor and usually they can draw it up for you...and most tattoo artist rather do something original

How can I show my girlfriend how much I love her?

I am 20 and my girlfriend and I have been dating for 3 years. We live out in the sticks and there is really nothing to do around here. We go for walks, go to the occasional movie, party a little...but I really need to show her how much she means to me without just getting flowers or saying "I love you."

How can I show my girlfriend how much I love her?
take her under the stars and cuddle... all night and tell her how much you love her! =) Good Luck!
Reply:Marry her and quit dishonoring her by living a noncommital relationship that says, "I care about you, but only if I can get out of this if it gets difficult."

- Massages, candles, a dinner that YOU cook


- Be the gentleman by pulling out the chair, opening doors, etc


- Both of you dress up for a dinner you prepare complete with candles, music, and dancing for two....my bf in hs even sent me an invitation to the "event" where he cooked a simple spaghetti dinner with wine and roses.


- Go online and order special things that remind you of her or she mentions she likes.


- Order online M%26amp;Ms with special customized sayings


- Plan a special day/weekend in a nearby town where YOU do all the planning down to where to stay/ where to eat (not fast food)/ and what to do ( online searches can help you find something interesting and fun)


-Fix things for her if you can


- Buy cards for no reason what so ever and surprise her

What to bring the girl rider to a horse show?

r u supposed to bring flowers?

What to bring the girl rider to a horse show?
A true lover of horses doesn't need anything to go to a show. If you have to buy her , forget it. I can't believe you would consider bribing someone like that. Try saying , I'm proud of you if she shows and help her with the work of prep at the show. I would be happy just to have someone at my side to watch me perform. If she wins that should be the special gift.





I guess I really don't get your question ,,,or how you ask it sense wise.





Flowers? I think the industry is getting too commercial and the pleasure horses spirit has become sluggish.





This is just my opinion and hope the best for you. Whatever your aiming for.





If all else fails and you feel the need to bring something try a gift certificate from a Western Store or better yet,,,a Silver Mesa Saddle would win her heart. That may set you back several grand though.
Reply:It depends how big the show and how often she shows. If she shows every weekend that could get expensive with lots of gifts. I am sure she would appreciate a flower and a good luck kiss. Sometimes just showing up means the world to someone, material things cannot replace you being there and giving you time of day for her. Trust me that means more then anything, just having someone special routing for you up in the stands.
Reply:Well I think just turning up and helping is the best thing. I have never got presents--only the Rossett after! I think the best thing to buy would be entry into the show, as if you enter lots of classes it can get pricey, so buying entry into a few classes would make me happy, as I could enter even more classes. But i suppose flowers would b good-- but there is no use in them except to look nice.
Reply:Well... I show alot! And my dad and friends, and boyfriends(ha) bring me flowers and for a present before like regionals(MaClay) a horsecharm necklace!! So a flower, necklace, a little thing that means alot to her. and definately if it is a first horse show[= those are sorta scarey.

Is there a way to preserve or "Antique" flowers?

I saw it once on a T.V show, where they made the flowers (that were real) into an almost porcelein state. Is there any way to do this, or another way just to keep them, without freezing or hanging them up in a closet?

Is there a way to preserve or "Antique" flowers?
craft stores sell a product like dessicant that dries flowers. it is granular and you fill a glass half way with it, place the flower in, then continue filling.
Reply:What you saw was "freeze-dried" flowers but you can't create them in your own freezer. You need to freeze them and then reduce the air-pressure to zero, or basically that which you would find in outer-space.





At that pressure the boiling point of water becomes less than 32 degrees Fahrenheit (it's freezing temperature) and it converts directly from a solid to a gas without becoming a liquid again. This gives the item it's porcelain look and feel.





Now, while you can't do that without the aid of a very serious and expensive type of depressurization chamber, which itself is run and operated in a frozen meat locker, you can dehydrate your flowers to preserve them rather effectively.





Commercial food dehydrators with their temperature setting on the lowest it will go can dehydrate flowers in a couple hours.





For larger flowers though, I will often place them between a couple (clean) furnace air filters and tie the whole thing to a box fan and leave it on low for a day or so. The moving air wicks away the moisture in the plant in very short order before it can rot.


How do I make a complaint of a purchase I made. Flower Expo sent the wrong colors and flowers to a funeral?

I went to Flower Expo and ordered a bouquet for a funeral. I specified the colors I wanted and also the flowers even the ribbon to be placed on it. I asked for blue flowers and specified carnations white in color and the tips dyed blue with palms in the back ground. The owner showed me some flowers he had but I said no because they were not blue they were purple. He assured me he knew exactly what I would like and he would arrange them himself. When I paid for them I also paid delivery for this memorial gave the address to be delivered to got a reciept and left. Well to make my point I was so devestated when I got to the memorial the whole arrangement was with pink roses orange orchids and the flowers I told him were not blue. He refuses to give me a refund and says I should of took them back how many people do you know of that would carry away flowers meant for the dead and tell the family I HAD TO TAKE THEM BACK. Flower Expo 7000 Mgnolia ave Riverside, Calif.92506

How do I make a complaint of a purchase I made. Flower Expo sent the wrong colors and flowers to a funeral?
Since he refuses to give you a refund report his company to the Better Business Bureau.
Reply:If you paid with a credit card you can dispute the charges with your credit card company. You may not get anywhere but at least you will cause him some inconvience. It's worth a shot, at worst you can delay payment for a few months.

What exactly is saffron? I know that it is a herb, but whats it come from and where?

It's an herb that is used for cooking, and I thought that they said on the show that it comes from a flower, but am not sure I would like to know more about it please.

What exactly is saffron? I know that it is a herb, but whats it come from and where?
the most precious and most expensive spice in the world: Saffron.


The Saffron filaments, or threads, are actually the dried stigmas of the saffron flower, "Crocus Sativus Linneaus". Each flower contains only three stigmas. These threads must be picked from each flower by hand, and more than 75,000 of these flowers are needed to produce just one pound of Saffron filaments, making it the world's most precious spice.


But, because of saffron's strong coloring power and intense flavor, it can be used sparingly. Saffron is used both for its bright orange-yellow color and for its strong, intense flavor and aroma.





crocus Sativus Linneaus contains crocin, the source of its strong coloring property, bitter-crocin, which offers the distinctive aroma and taste and essential oils which are responsible for its therapeutic properties.


Saffron is available both in filaments and powder, though the long, deep red filaments are usually preferable to the powder as the latter can be easily adulterated.


Today, the greatest saffron producing countries are Greece, Spain, Turkey, Iran, India, and Morocco.


The largest saffron importers are Germany, Italy, U.S.A., Switzerland, U.K., and France

It's V potent %26amp; should B used sparingly.

Reply:al you need is on the link below...
Reply:Saffron is a spice derived from the flower of the saffron crocus (Crocus sativus), a species of crocus in the family Iridaceae. The flower has three stigmas, which are the distal ends of the plant's carpels. Together with its style, the stalk connecting the stigmas to the rest of the plant, these components are often dried and used in cooking as a seasoning and colouring agent. Saffron, which has for decades been the world's most expensive spice by weight,is native to Southwest Asia. It was first cultivated in the vicinity of Greece.





Saffron is characterised by a bitter taste and an iodoform- or hay-like fragrance; these are caused by the chemicals picrocrocin and safranal It also contains a carotenoid dye, crocin, that gives food a rich golden-yellow hue. These traits make saffron a much-sought ingredient in many foods worldwide. Saffron also has medicinal applications.

What happened to Flower on Meerkat Manor?!?

I got bored with the show on the third season and well at the beginning of one episode it said that the clan has to find another leader because Flower is gone.





What happened to her?

Poor Flower was bitten in the face by a snake and died due to her injuries. It was very sad actually because she had just adopted an orphaned baby by the other Meerkat clan. You should start watching it again!

Reply:Flower went into the family den after a Cobra in an effort to defend her babbies when the snake bit her on the face/head area.





Those filming the sequence said she didn't come out of the den for two days and when she did appear her face was swollen. They tried in vain to save her. She is buried near the den.





They posted this on the web site for Meerkat Manor in an effort to let people know that they did try to save her. They are as upset as the fans are with the passing of Flower.

What kind of cherry tree that is native to Japan?

youve all seen the movies about japan where they show big trees with pinkish/red flower petals falling from the tree.





what zone is it in?


can i grow that type of tree in central Montana?

What kind of cherry tree that is native to Japan?
I believe that is the yoshino cherry, it is native to Japan, and is the tree you see in the D.C. area photos. Prunus Yedoensis, is the latin name and it does pretty well in zones 6 through 8 I think. It should do ok in Bute or Big Timber, but outside those areas, it might flounder. It is one of the fastest growers among cherries. There are several other varieties, some might be better suited.

the most common ones are somei yashino, and Yamazakura


they typically bloom in early spring and are in bloom for just a few days. the pink blossom is called Kanzan.

Need to know what to do to help my lime tree grows new leaves.?

I live in Centra Florida. Months ago I re-planted an old lime tree on my new yard. At the beginning it was OK, then it shown plenty of flowers but lost their leaves. Now it has only few leaves. How can I help it to develope new and strong leaves? Your answer is welcome. PUEDE RESPONDER EN ESPAÑOL SI LO DESEA.

Need to know what to do to help my lime tree grows new leaves.?
Patience is key. Water daily. Fertilize lightly every month. It may look like it's doing nothing at the surface, but that's because it's working on producing more roots! In my experience, cutting back an unhealthy tree (as suggested above) is the worst thing you can do, as doing so would put it into even more shock.
Reply:Transplanting an older tree is a major shock for the tree, as however careful you are, you will have lost a large number of roots. It is important to decrease the size of the tree when you transplant. If you have not already done so, cut back all the branches so that the tree is 2/3rds or less of its original size.





The other vital thing is to water extensively. Make sure the dirt where you planted the tree never dries out, and give it a major soaking at least once a week. You have to establish the roots before it will send out new leaves. Make sure there are no weeds round the roots, as they will suck up all the water. Fertilize lightly with a fertilizer designed for citrus trees.


What to say when someone you knows has suffered a miscarriage...?

Recently someone decided that it would be fun to poke mockery (on Yahoo Answers) of the death of our son, Zachary that we tragically lost on Aug. 2, 2006 (second trimester loss), to see the post go here http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;...





I thought it would be important to post what to say to someone who has endured the pain of a miscarriage..





Things you should say


Do call her and tell her you are sorry for her loss.


Do send her a card or flowers to show you care


Do let her talk as much as she needs to or wants to.


Do give her a hug to let her know you care.


Do offer to help with housework, babysitting or other things that she may not feel up to doing.


Do acknowledge her baby.


It is okay to say I don’t know what to say or I don’t know how to help.


Do call and check up on her. The pain does not go away in a couple days.





So with that posted what else do you think would be appropiate?

What to say when someone you knows has suffered a miscarriage...?
I think what you have listed pretty much sums it up. I lost a baby this past Easter. When my family was gathered together observing Easter, I was in the emergency room finding out that my baby had passed and blaming myself for things like not drinking enough water or not resting enough. The fact of the matter is: this happens spontaneously in most cases. The things you listed that people said to me helped. What didn't help were things like: "You can try again" "There was probably something wrong with it"and "nature took care of it" Thankfully, everyone was very supportive to me when I was so deeply saddened. Time heals. The fact of the matter is..there is always someone out there who will say things to get attention from others...They have no consequences to their actions and would never say what they say in here to anyone's face because they would be picking their teeth up off the floor. Keep your chin up sister. I'm believethat Kharma will catch up to people who are out to hurt others. Cry if you need to. You will get over this. God Bless!

Reply:First of all I would like to tell you I am sorry for your loss. And I am even more sorry that people made fun of it. I tried to look at the link but it said the server was busy. Sometimes people are so inconsiderate. Recently my best friend lost her baby that her and her husband had been trying for so long to get pregnant and were so happy when they found out she was! I didn't know what to say to her at first. I felt so bad when she came to my house and saw my 2 year old and my 6 month old. I thought- how could God let someone who desperately wants to be a mother lose her baby?? And then women abort pregnancies all the time. It's not right! I just hugged my friend and told her I was so sorry and I was here to talk to. I also said that it was the body's way of rejecting it because something probably wasn't right. I told her it wasn't her fault and it was nothing she did or didn't do, it just wasn't meant to be. They are currently trying again for a baby, and I so hope they get one... they will make great parents.


One really can't say "I know how you feel" unless they have been through it themself. Once again I express my sympathy to you and yours and don't give up. When it is meant to be it will happen. Good luck to you! :)

Go to "Media Generators" then "Text". Click and hold Defaul Text and drag it and place it right below the clip with the flower. Now go all the way to the left of the track that has the Flower Clip. You will see a slider called "Level". Now click on the "Compositing Mode" button which is a little bit to the right of the Level. When you r in the C. Mode options choose "Screen" and there.

get her anything for 1 day treat her like a queen cook her meals clean her house or give her the whole spa treatment at home footrubs back massages and if you are a dirty couple show her you still got it
Reply:Do things for her...like pick a romantic movie and watch it with her...do something you know she loves but her hate....girls like that!
Reply:take her to movies iceskatin and hold her close in your arms and at the perfect times kiss her and say somethin nice
Reply:Do something for her that she wants. Have you talked about anything lately? Does she need her car repaired? Does she need help with house cleaning or something? Helping her with somethings will show her that you care, more than just saying so.


Mind you, I hate getting flowers as well.
Reply:find a way to make her see...





youve got to kiss her.


the right way.





and also...


if she has yahoo messanger you could get one of your friends to talk to her and tell her to look at this right here...


and then maybe she'd see that you really do care..





i kno that if i had a bf that posted this thing i would never let him go
Reply:do what every girl wants

What can I do to better show my girlfriend that I haven't lost interest and love her with all my heart?

I guess this question is for the females to answer. I don't want to go into detail, but we have been arguing more lately, and I have done some things for her to question her trust in me. I have never been unfaithful to her, but am not always the best bf. I'm making her a cake tonight, and bought her some flowers, and want to write her a letter. Any other suggestions? I just want to show her that I haven't gone anywhere (emotionally). I love her with all of my heart, and I want her to KNOW it. I want to make up to her for being an a$$hole lately.

What can I do to better show my girlfriend that I haven't lost interest and love her with all my heart?
tell her all of that and that you know that you've been doing it and you're sorry.
Reply:Just tell her you've realized how you've been acting and that you are sorry. And if you really mean it and want to show her you will change your behavior permanently. Of course you guys will have your lil fights like every other couple but just show her that you'd hate to lose her just because you were bein a jerk. Now dont be all fake and not yourself around her but just show her that you're really sorry and kno that you made a mistake by treating her that way.
Reply:The only thing you can do to really make a difference is to NOT make her question trust. If she has trust, she will know you are there with her emotionally. You're on a good start to fixing things. Don't give her any more reasons to question you, once trust is gone, it's very hard to get it back.
Reply:When she talks, listen to her...I know it sounds hard but it works!
Reply:I like your idea actions speak so much louder than words. Whatever you say just speak from your heart she will know. Good luck.
Reply:do things like lay on a bed with her in your arms and tell her every way you feel about her, and how your love for her has grown. talk about great memories that you two have, and then tell her everything that you love about her, and why you want to stay with her. that kind of stuff gets s so bad. it makes us feel good inside to know how a guy eels about us. just lay there with her, and quietly tell her in detail how much you love her, and that you haven't lost interest, and all the things she does that make you love her. (we like to know that you appreciate even the small things we do) I swear this will work. my bf did it, and i was so happy, that i was actually crying, and we had a bond so strong that night.
Reply:Romance and passion are the key. Just doing something special like flowers doesn't cut it. The true feeling have to be there, whole heartily. You should make her feel like you are the luckiest guy on earth to have her, by applying the romance and passion. Remember the feeling of when you very first fell in love!
Reply:try paying attention to what she tells you and remember it. u should b able to work out what she wants from what she says. then do something to show her that u heard her properly. thats what i would really like, my boyfriend to listen.
Reply:everything that you suggested is great, but you are missing one simple but important thing. we like it better when we actually hear the words coming from your mouth. that means a whole lot to us. even if you can't say it all, then at least try because at least we know you tried to say it from your mouth, and we know you didn't just get some advice from someone and just write it like it came from yourself.
Reply:Awww. yea my bf is the sameway.What i should tell you is to give her something she really likes and make it up to her .


Do you know of any sites that show "artsy" wedding photgraphy?

I'm meeting with my photographer today and she seems to take pretty original shots, but I want to explain the artsy pictures I like.. like of the rings, that back of the dress, flowers, etc.

Do you know of any sites that show "artsy" wedding photgraphy?
The best photos I've ever seen are from www.deviantart.com





The photographers, who can be anyone from a 5 year old with a throw away camera to a 50 year old professional, all submit their photos on here for public viewing.





It's worth a look! Good luck :)





ADD:


By searching under "weddings" this is what comes up:

Does anyone know the name of the show where two couples plan each others weddings?

They were given options for each thing ie. formal flowers/exotic flowers/traditional flowers and at the end the couple that had best matched their ideal wedding won some money

Does anyone know the name of the show where two couples plan each others weddings?
I found info on one called Exchanging Vows - looks like it might just be in Canada.

Reply:i do a lot for a man I'm in love with. almost too much. i cook for them often. bring them lunch at work, tell them i love them, do cute things for them like leaving notes around. buy them randomly cute things i know they would like, listen to them. encourage and support them and bring thrill into their life, i plan special adventurous trips that are a surprise. i send them text messages or pictures. . there are so many ways .. . and that's not even dipping in to intimacy . . . and just caring and not to pride full to show it.
Reply:Kneepads and chapstick... JK, Maybe do things things that aren't nencessarilly seductive (although they may be) but just things that show that you really care about him. My girlfriend used to just lay next to me and rub my hands which showed me that she loved me.

Where is flower paradise on pokemon diamond?

on the website serebii.net it shows all the pokemon ever created and there information they said theres a new pokemon called shaymin and theres only one and they said it could be found in flower paradise ............... where is that at??

Where is flower paradise on pokemon diamond?
After you beat the Elite Four a new route in Victory Road opens up. After going through the different way in Victory Road, you exit into Route 226. You can see this Route on your Town Map. It appears to be going north east of the Pokemon League.





But to get Shaymin, you need to get Oak's Letter. You can only get this from hacking, or from a Nintendo Event.
Reply:Flower Paradise is north of Route 224 and east of Resort Area.





You must have an item called OAK'S LETTER, and go to Route 224, you will see Professor Oak there examining the white rock. After much talking, a long waterway called Seabreak Path will lead you to Flower Paradise and Shaymin will be there at level 30.





However, Oak's Letter is only obtainable in official Nintendo events, which as of yet, no events in any part of the world has given away the item, so the only way to obtain one is by hacking with a device such as Action Replay or GameShark.





The Flower Paradise will not be on the map until you've been there at least once so don't waste time trying to find it on the town maps.





This applies the same with Darkrai and Arceus, besides there will be a Darkrai event on July 14th in Japan... If you have Mystery Gift, you may be able to get it with WiFi, but that is unconfirmed as of now.





Also, you may search Shaymin events videos on YouTube, and you may find one. Watch it and you should understand.
Reply:you need a nintendo event item, most just hack it


How do I make Flowers out of icing for cake?!?

Does anyone know of any websites that show you how to make flowers out of icing for a birthday cake...I sorta know how to make them already but i would still like to see some directions...They don't have to be very detailed. Thanks in advance.

Reply:use a piping bag with a floral tip


good luck
Reply:The best type to use is royal icing - don't have the recipe to hand, but as I recall, it needs egg-white, and is quite a stiff icing. You can use a few drops of food colouring, and then (dusting your hands with icing sugar first) use it like play-doh to shape them into flowers, or roll the icing out, and use a greaseproof paper template to cut them out. You could always use silver balls (the edible kind) if you can find them and put them in the centre of each flower for a decorative touch!
Reply:depends on what kind you want to make. Icing Roses? Piped Daisies? THeres lots of other kinds. It all really depends on what kind of tip you are using to pipe the frosting.


Theres a variety of cake decorating supplies and they come with instruction booklet at www.wilton.com
Reply:In the states, the classic company for learning to decorate cakes is Wilton's. Their web site is: http://www.wilton.com/index.cfm





Any stiff buttercream or shortening based icing will work. I've even used canned.





If you want to make flowers that get hard, that you can make ahead and will last quite awhile (but taste terrible) you can make royal icing - which uses an egg white powder base. Wilton sells a mix for royal icing.





The real key to making beautiful flowers are the decorating tips that you put in the pastry bag to pipe out the flowers. The grocery stores icings in the tubes that come with 2 or 3 tips are okay, but nothing is better then a parchment bag with a good quality tip.

What flowers can i grow in pots ready for next July?

i am getting maried next July and its on a budget! To save money i thought i could grow the centre pieces for the tables at the reception. i need something that won't look too sparse (no soil on show) and will give me flowers through out July. White is my preferred colour. can anyone give me any advice?

What flowers can i grow in pots ready for next July?
Perennials of course. White coneflowers, daisies, babys breath, white roses,calla lilies,lillium, lily of the valley etc. You could plant some of these now from seeds and maybe buy small plants or bulbs or roots to grown more and bigger plants for next july. Good luck! Nothing wrong with being on a budget.
Reply:Sweet Peas Definately ! they are the easist and one of the most fragrant flowers on tthe market,try the old fashioned type, they have a higher fragrance
Reply:to make sure you have the flowers in July you could sow some of the biennials e.g. bellis(double Daisy) which will be in flower for you at the right time. Other people have answered on other plants although if you wish sweet peas then you should sow some in September and others early next year to give yourself enough of a chance to have them ready on time, if you choose sweet pea then plant a dwarf variety or you will have to cut out the growing tips of the large types. You could grow the sweet peas and pick the flowers for the table the scent is fantastic.
Reply:dont get married then you wont have o worry about it
Reply:If you have a south facing garden, lots of things.





What would you like?





I would have thought it would be better to envisage the bouquet and then ask the gardeners of Yahoo as to how and whether you can get it in the time.


Are giving flowers a good way to show that you care about a person?

oh yes of couse went to visit my antie , she had a lot of upset with one her children, and looks after her husband who is house bound , i felt so sorry for her i was in tears , said my goodbys got in my car went the florist got the flowers , went back to my anties, and her face just lit the whole house up . her children were on the phone to me thanking me ,that was 2 years ago and it stays in my mind and she still speaks of it now , and i too just love tham xx

Are giving flowers a good way to show that you care about a person?
It depends on the situation and the person.





Flowers are nice but sometimes another gesture of kindness is appreciated more.
Reply:Yes, may as well now why their alive to see them.


I've always wondered why so many people give flowers at a funeral. I'm sure the deceased would of loved getting them while they were alive!!!


What is the fruit of a tulip?

my daughter has to do a model/diagram of a flower showing its seed,stem,leaves,flower and fruit. I am science dumb and can not for the life of me remember what part is the fruit

What is the fruit of a tulip?
The fruit of Tulip is a dry capsule containing numerous flat disc-shaped seeds.


Image-http://new.oplin.org/tree/fact%20pages/t...
Reply:Rocketman got it right, the ovary is at the base of he flower,a nd the fruit form arond the ovary.





In the tulip, the fruit is a oblong pod wih 5 rows of seeds. Tulips are no typically propagated by seeds, as they will not yield a predictable color. Instead, the bulbs are used to propagate the plant asexually (without sex) meaning the bulbs are essenially clones of the mother plant.
Reply:The 'fruit' would be that part of the tulip flower that encases the seeds. It really isn't a fruit, but I suppose if I were to call it anything, that would be it. Good luck
Reply:A fruit is a ripened overy, so on a tulip it is at the base of the flower
Reply:The only thing I can think of is the bulb but I wouldn't like to eat it
Reply:Tulip (Tulipa) is a genus of about 100 species of flowering plants in the family Liliaceae. They are native to southern Europe, north Africa, and Asia from Anatolia and Iran (where the flower is suggested on the nation's flag) east to northeast China and Japan. The centre of diversity of the genus is in the Pamir and Hindu Kush mountains and the steppes of Kazakhstan.





They are perennial bulbous plants growing to 10-70 cm tall, with a small number of strap-shaped, waxy-textured, usually glaucous green leaves and large flowers with six tepals. The fruit is a dry capsule containing numerous flat disc-shaped seeds.

Does anybody remember a TV show from the late 80's early 90's where a girl went to an 8th grade dance and

was wearing a dress that had a big ink stain covered up by a flower, and then a classmate wearing the same dress noticed and ripped the flower off, revealing the stain and humiliating the girl. Does anyone know what show it is????

Does anybody remember a TV show from the late 80's early 90's where a girl went to an 8th grade dance and
Was it The Torkelsons? When i read your post i could see the entire scene in my head but for the life of me I could not remember what show it was. I think it could be the Torkelsons. But I think the mean girl was wearing a different dress but recognized her old dress that had been donated to charity.





This could be the episode but it does not go into much detail

What can a husband do to show appreciation to his wife?

Any suggestions? Don't say give her flowers, been there done that....

What can a husband do to show appreciation to his wife?
come home early from work and make her a nice romantic dinner.


rent her favorite movie and watch it with her.


get a bubble bath ready for her.


give her a nice massage and tell her how much you love her.


write her a poem or letter to express how much you love and appreciate her.


take her to her favorite restaurant


take a day off or send her somewhere for the day and surprise her by doing the laundry, dishes, housework she always does


give her a gift certificate for a spa day


make a book of coupons with things like good for 1 day of pampering or 1 day of housecleaning or cute ones like good for 1 kiss or movie of your choice
Reply:My biggest turn on is a clean house and no clothes on the floor! That is the truth. Also, some of the chores on my "honey-do" list completed. We love that stuff!
Reply:Honestly. Help with the housework or cooking. There's something sexy about a man in the kitchen (especially with an apron) and don't leave the dishes and kitchen for her to clean. Or take her on a date somewhere like the zoo or an amusement park where you can act like a couple of silly kids. Wow what a good guy you are. Your wife must be a very lucky lady.
Reply:Give her a day at the spa
Reply:Judging by your nickname, stop watching so much sports, and spend time with HER, doing whatever she wants to do!





She probably feels neglected whenever your favorites are on, or when you're out playing them.
Reply:You have gotten suggestions all over the board. Here is a way to help you categorize them and pick one.


You see, there are five "languages of love" - that is, ways you can express to someone else that you value them:





1. Quality Time


2. Giving physical objects (gifts)


3. Acts of service


4. Physical affection


5. Words of praise





Everyone likes things from every category, but for every person, there is one of the five that truly makes them feel valued. You need to find out which of the 5 is most valuable to your wife. The easiest way to tell is if she ever complains, what she complains about. If she does actually ask you for anything, what is it typically? You can also tell by what she tries to do for you when she expresses appreciation. Our default for expressing it is also often our own preference for receiving.





Examples from each category:


1. Going away for a weekend without the kids (if any)


2. Giving flowers or jewelry


3. Cleaning the house, doing the cooking


4. Extra hugs, kisses, holding hands, etc (not just THE act.)


5. Writing a heart felt love letter.





You can tell which category each of all your other suggestions fell into pretty easily. So, once you determine her category, look at the suggestions that match that and choose one.





For example, me personally, words mean the most to me, so I would most appreciate a love letter.





The other thing is that you shouldn't let this go and just make huge gestures once in a while. Lots of little ones are worth as much, if not more. For me, words of praise being mine, I need to hear the three words all the time. I need to hear thank you, I need to hear compliments, and I especially can't handle criticism. Your life will be so much better if you can make her feel special all the time.
Reply:Im glad that you have been recieving lots of respond towards on things that you want to do for your wife. Have you tried romantic dinner just the two of you??.not in a restaurant but in your own home where you can have more privacy together. Pick a room in your house, set a table for 2 and put 1 long stem rose, then put lots of lite candles all over the room to set the mood of romance. if you have a music ,make sure it's soft music, then make her favorite meal with white wine for the two of you. And if you do this without her knowing it, she will be touch and maybe cry as well.


Make this night a very special night for her and you'll see that she will adore you more in a long run........good luck and have fun!!
Reply:Tell you you love her all of the time and give her lots of kisses. And make her dinner! That's what mine does.
Reply:Well....a great licking is usually appreciated.
Reply:Thank her. Tell her you appreciate her. Give details. Women like when I guy picks up on the small things.


Help her out with chores. Respect her. Spend quality time together. Maybe a sensual massage from you would be nice. I don't know if you have one of these places in your area, but they have 'kitchens' where you go (gourmet recipes and ingredients provided) and prepare like a week or two worth of dinners in one night while listening to music and having a glass or two of wine.
Reply:clean the house
Reply:Cleaning house is the best way. Mine usaully maddens me all the time but when i see he actually took the time and has cleaned somthing for me i forget all the negatives for a while. Dont forget you can also book her an appoitment for a day at the spa or getting a manicure or pedacure, most places are having sales right now as it is spring.
Reply:buy her a nice pair of shoes....girls love shoes....
Reply:Pay attention to her when she talks. Ask questions - repeat what she says to make sure you are hearing her correctly - if you are not sure what she means - ask for more details. Turn off the damned TV and computer and focus on her when you have a conversation.





Send her love notes - call her for no reason other than to say you love her and were thinking of her. What did you do during your dating days? You made her feel like she was a high priority in your life and that you couldn't wait to see her to talk and just be with her. Do what you did then. Surprise her. She'll love it.
