Most photographers set up a portfolio to display their work and attract new clients - and this is often more important than your formal education. Try looking for internships in the fashion world to help you get an idea of how to get a job in that industry (and potentially pick up a few tips about photography). hamblog Thu, 24 Jul 2008 12:54:48 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/fashion_photography 444608 Re: Math tutors online tutorlinker.com can help you find a local tutor (in math or any other subject). If you are just looking for math resources online - the site I work for has links to online resources for elementary, middle school, and high school math sites (not sure what level you are looking for) - look at the right side of this page and scroll down to find the math level you want help with - you might even find websites where you could ask someone for help with a certain problem http://www.findingdulcinea.com/guides.html?topic=/categories/education hamblog Thu, 24 Jul 2008 12:43:19 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/tutors 444586 Re: How many calories in chinese food beef and broccoli? Also - you can look on the site of the actual restaurant. For example - panda express has their nutrition data online (they have a beef with broccoli listed there that you could use as a reference) http://pandaexpress.com/menu/nutrition.aspx hamblog Tue, 22 Jul 2008 09:01:05 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/how_many_calories_in_chinese_food 439261 Re: How many calories in chinese food beef and broccoli? A site called nutritiondata.com will show you how many calories and other nutrition data for most foods. I think you might have to go through a free registration, but it has a lot of handy info. hamblog Tue, 22 Jul 2008 08:44:33 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/how_many_calories_in_chinese_food 439224 Re: Anyone know of any really good recipes? This site, CookingByNumbers.com , asks you what you have in your fridge or cupboard and then will tell you what you can cook with those ingredients. This might be a good way to get some new ideas for cooking without spending any extra money. hamblog Tue, 22 Jul 2008 08:25:17 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/recipes_31957 439189 Re: What are some good subjects to write a song on? there are some sites and networks for songwriters that might give you some inspiration. try these http://www.performingsongwriter.com/ (this is a songwriting magazine) http://www.ultimatesongwriting.com/how-to-write-a-song.html http://www.easy-song-writing.com/articles/index.asp I've got a few more - but didn't want to overwhelm you with links in this response - let me know and I can send them your way. hamblog Tue, 22 Jul 2008 07:39:31 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/what_are_some_good_subjects_to_write 439137 Re: Female pug names! I've got a friend who just named her female pug a boy's name - and I think it is really cute. here's a list of baby name tools online (you put in letters - or you can just let it show you some names randomly if you like) you might get some inspiration for your pug http://www.findingdulcinea.com/guides.html?topic=/categories/health/pregnancy&pg=04#04 hamblog Fri, 18 Jul 2008 10:09:49 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/female_pug_names_191378 432601 Re: My BMI there are many sites online that can help you figure out if you are at a healthy weight - the mayo clinic is a very trustworthy source that has a bmi calculator for children (ages 2-18) which (considering that you say you are a cheerleader) might be a more accurate way for you to determine if you are at a healthy weight http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/bmi-calculator/NU00597 Every person has a different weight that is healthy for them - don't get too caught up in the numbers. If you are really concerned about your risk of obesity in the future - the site I work for has a guide with lots of resources about prevention and risk factors. however, your best bet is always to check with your doctor about your health. http://www.findingdulcinea.com/guides.html?topic=/categories/health/obesity&pg=0#0 hamblog Fri, 18 Jul 2008 09:27:56 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/my_bmi_6501 432554 Re: Where can I watch Simple Life online? try this site - peekvid.com - they link you to other sites that host tv shows and whatnot. hamblog Mon, 17 Mar 2008 12:32:21 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/simple_life 268106 Re: Homeschooling experiences? one of my coworkers gathered a bunch of web resources about homeschooling and even has a section in this article http://www.findingdulcinea.com/guides.html?topic=/categories/education/homeschooling&pg=00#00 about deciding if homeschool is the right choice for you. There are lots of online resources (and many of them free) for parents deciding to homeschool, curricula, lesson plans, communities, and so on. hamblog Mon, 17 Mar 2008 12:25:51 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/homeschooling_137271 268093 Re: Easter Activities for Kids I always liked dyeing eggs using natural ingredients (beets, onions,etc) I think it is a cool craft for kids (and the eggs turn out really pretty colors). hamblog Tue, 11 Mar 2008 14:59:04 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/easter_activities_for_kids 259626
