I need help Convincing my Parents to let me Join Ballet!?
Okay so basically I’m A okay for ballet other than one thing. . . The price.

So it’s 50 dollars a month. It’s something i’ve wanted to do ever since I was a little girl, but I was too afraid too. I have spent half of my life dancing around and pretending to be a ballerina.

Me and some girls did a dance off at a leadership program, I pretended to do ballet (It was probably nothing compared to what ballerinas can really do.) I just mocked what I saw on TV etc and from memory.

I won the contest! Not to mention I had to dance with my eyes closed (tis was the rule of the dance off).

I would LOVE to do ballet but it’s so expensive! I’m at the age where I can work to get some money, but jobs are limited.

Idk what to do!

Do you have any tips or ways to convince my parents? My mom says "we’ll see" , but it’s my dad that needs the convincing!

So please help!

Ballet teaches discipline and obiedience. Plus it is an extra curicular activity that would be good to put on College apps.

why don’t you tell them its an education like anything else, school etc. It teaches you a skill, helps you destress, and also gives you something to balance out school life. Also, use your judgement with which of the answers may work for them… but you could also try to tell them that learning to juggle many things at once is an important life skill many of today’s adults didn’t learn when they were younger. It’s important for you to learn time management skills etc.
Also, maybe try splitting the cost between your parents and yourself. TBH 50 dollars is really cheap for dancing… if you wanted to do ballroom dancing you’d be paying upwards of like … 600 dollars a month, although I guess that depends on where you go.
Also, if you babysit once a week or so you should be able to get more than $ 50… just make sure you know and trust the people who’s child you will be babysitting – this is a must.

Do I have a legal case? Or am I at fault?
The radio in my car was going out and was not running to what I expected it to run. Therefore, I had taken the road of checking out salvage yards to find one. I went to one and they had a really nice looking radio and they wanted $100. I only had $80. They told me that I could give them the $80 and my radio for collateral and can take the new one and then come back the next day with my other $20 and can get my radio back. I thought they were doing me a favor and thought I’d have no reason to feel they were lying so I took them on their offer. They took my money and radio and gave me the "new" one and sent me on my way. I hooked it up to my car and the screen on the radio was old and not working. I tried to go back and tell them what was wrong with it and they told me "it must be your car. the radio works." and I was like no its not my car my radio worked better than this. Then they told me they were closing and to come back the next day and they will fix it, they walked me out and locked the door behind me. I called the next day and let them know I was on my way and they said alright. When I get there the doors are locked and then they won’t answer the phone. Finally I get them on the phone and they claim they don’t speak English.

So I was scammed out of $80 and my decent radio for a crappy one that I can’t even use because for security features is locked and the screen doesn’t even work worth a flip.

Do I have a legal case? or am I at fault and have to just learn from my mistake?
Oh and these people are Mexicans and I threated to get a lawyer involved and they got really nervous. I think they may be illegals. So I’m thinking if I get a legal thing going they may want to cooroperate or maybe flee.

What’s your advice? I’m just at a loss for words. I didn’t think they would really do this to me.

---

This is one of those perspective changing incidence on humanity. Never trust anyone. Doubt everything.

You have no case unless you have evidence of a receipt, contract, return policy, etc.. Because the legal system is a flawed invention.

If I were you I’d go vigilante and burn the damn yard down.
hobbitgonewild | Feb 04, 2010

It’s a salvage yard for God’s sake. I’d be willing to bet that there is a sign that says, "All sales are final." and/or "All items sold ‘as is’"

you didn’t get anything in writing, so you just spent 80 bucks to learn a lesson! You SHOULD have known better than to do business with Mexicans in the first place, you always get the deal in writing and you don’t buy things based on looks alone!
meltingslowlymelting | Feb 04, 2010

Your radio didn’t work and you were getting another one at a salvage yard? Parts sold at salvage yards are "as is". You should have checked out the radio first to see if it worked. Sorry, you lost your money. Next time go to a car stereo store where they know what they are doing. However, please call ICE and hopefully they will be arrested and deported.
Viking | Feb 04, 2010

you could
(a) Tell them you will report them to the police for fraud and see if that scares them into coughing up your money or
(b) Tell them you will be suing them and go to small claims (you don’t really need a lawyer for this) – when they get a letter from the court it might make them more willing to pay.

What is the proof that a god can't be all knowing, all loving, and all powerful simultaneously?
After all, while "all knowing" and "all powerful" may be considered objective standards (for the sake of argument), doesn’t "all loving" involve sufficient subjectivity such that a deity COULD be loving from the deity’s perspective even if someone else might disagree as to what is and isn’t loving. (For example, is JUSTICE — including punishments for evil — "loving"? Surely if justice and even strict punishments lead to a safer, more justice, and stable environment/society, justice — complete with stern punishments — could surely be considered loving, right? (Agree or disagree?)

Yes, I am very aware of the classic "complaint" about a deity having these omni-characteristics. But I’ve never found the "God can’t be all three at the same time" argument convincing. But if you think you can answer the question and convince me otherwise with sound reasoning, please do.

(The fact that you may hate the concept of god/God/gods for various other reasons is irrelevant to the question and rather boring — so please leave out the tired old rants and focus on the question, if you have the ability.)

Simply being all-knowing isn’t really possible when you consider the immensity of the amount of information. It would require knowing the precise position and momentum and other attributes of every subatomic particle for every picosecond for 30 billion years or more.

Blank white screen after I exit PC game?
Hey everyone! So I recently downloaded the game "Last Train to Blue Moon Canyon." The game is part of the Nancy Drew PC series, and I have downloaded other games in the series without a problem. When I downloaded this game, everything was fine for the first few days, but the last few times I’ve tried to exit the game, the game closes but a blank white screen comes up. I have tried pressing the escape button, but nothing seems to work. The only thing that eliminates the screen is shutting down my computer.

So, my question is, how do I get rid of this inconvenience? I really don’t want to have to shut down my computer after I exit the game.

10 points for the best answer, and thank you in advance!
Hi Colin,

I am using Windows Vista.

---

well do you have vista or xp?

if you have vista press ctrl, alt and delete at the same time and press start task manager close the game

if you have xp

if you have xp press ctrl, alt and delete at the same time and task manager automatically opens then end process for game

or you can hold alt and press tab to go to your desktop.

hope it helps

Hello,
If you are using vista or windows 7 make sure you are running the program as administrator… are you using another OS (Operating System) if so what?
