Haiti Earthquake

The School of Rock All Stars pay tribute to the historic multi-city, multi-venue rock music concert LIVE AID held on July 13, 1985, playing songs from some of the biggest music stars who graced the stages that day. Repertoire for the shows will include songs from artists such as U2, The Who, Queen, Tom Petty, Bob Dylan, Mick Jagger, Tina Turner, Black Sabbath, Crosby, Stills Nash & Young and more. $10 from every ticket will support earthquake relief efforts in Haiti through Music for Relief, a non-profit organization established by rock band Linkin Park which seeks to bring the music community together to raise awareness and funds for victims of natural disasters and help in the prevention of such disasters through environmental programs.

According to a friend of mine, Leonardo Dicaprio is a shallow and stuck up pretty boy, because he only dates models, has a lot of money, and apparently doesnt care about the "little people." I cant help but wonder what the hell is my friend talking about. I don't personally know the guy, but I know someone who did. He befriends a 5 year old boy dying of cancer, he's an environmentalist, he's had relationships with 24 orphaned children, and he donated a million dollars to Haiti after the earthquake. Seems like he cares about people a lot. As for the models, well, I say he can date who he wants. There's nothing wrong with being a model. It's not like they're prostitutes or strippers. That, I can understand. What do you think about Leonardo Dicaprio? Desiree, I tried looking for Dicaprio saying a comment like that. I found nothing. Jonathan, good publicity or not, he helps people. No one's making him do it. and besides, he doesn't really publicize his generosity; it is for the most part anonymous. Holly Sinclair, I don't think he's shallow. A friend thought he was, though my friend didnt know what the hell she was talking about. gail M, I posted the question twice, because I wasn't getting too many answers. Your answer is on the question "Is Leonardo Dicaprio shallow?" I did borrow your words, because I thought there were good. I'm sorry if it seems like I'm stealing from you. I just thought what you said was good Jonathan, I knew the family of the five year old with cancer. I don't think it was ever made public, but I've seen pictures of him and the boy. So, since he didnt even publicly state it, I'd say that he actually cared. And frankly, some might disagree, but I try to be more optimistic. I try to think the best about people. I don't like to assume that someone is a big a-hole,

Answer: Everybody is shallow and would date models if they had the choice (assuming the model also has a nice personality). That's just nature, we were designed to be attracted to physical appearance first and foremost, and personality second. While that may not seem like a Disney type of thing to say, it's just reality, or else women and men would look exactly the same. Physical attraction is what causes a man in the jungle to approach a woman and want to kiss her, even if neither speaks the same language. Personality is what makes them mesh well and get along and stay together, and helps boost the physical attraction somewhat. That's just how we were designed, by whoever or whatever. Anybody who googles "Leonardo Dicaprio causes" will see that he's done a lot. People need to stop trying to point their fingers at the ones like him and Angelina Jolie who are actually doing good things, when there's thousands of rich celebs who do nothing at all.

Answer: I don't think this friend of yours has any idea of what he or she is talking about, and I doubt if this person has ever in his or her life met Leonardo diCaprio, who is probably one of the most generous people in the industry, giving a great deal of time and money to help those less fortunate. And, unlike so many, he doesn't publicize his generosity; it is for the most part anonymous.

My husband and I are adopting a little girl from Haiti (whose parents sadly died in the earthquake). We are pretty set on Louisa Rose. Do you like Louisa Rose? Rate, give opinions, or anything else you'd like to do! Thank you. Sorry for asking again, but the other time I didn't get much. At amazed - I don't mean to be condescending or snappy, but "alot" is not a word. I believe you're thinking of the wordS "a" and "lot."

Answer: That is so nice to adopt a baby girl from Haiti. I think that is a beautiful name. Love Louisa, dont like that much Rose, but together they sound beautiful. Good Luck.

Hello. I have two girls of my own, one named Felicity (Flick) Marigold and the other Penelope (Poppy, Penny) Vienna. I am adopting another 14 month little girl from Haiti (sadly, her parents died in the earthquake). We are adopting her in a month and a half and my husband and I are pretty set on the name Louisa (Louise) Rose. What do you think of Louisa Rose?

Answer: I think Louisa Rose is a lovely combination, the names are sweet and flow really well together.

I am only 15, I just turned 15 in early July. I have watched stuff about it on the History channel. For me, it just seems like to much is going to happen for it to not be something spectacular that is going to happen, like the moon, venus, sun, and center of the galaxy alaigning. If this is true and it will happen, i do not want to die without finishing high school, and before I turn 18!!!! I am now going into 10th grade and for 11th grade it will be late 2011 to early 2012, and that means I will not finish high school if this is true. I can not choose to believe if this is true or not!!! I mean just like in the bible in revelations, it says more natural disasters will occur. Some things that have happened lately, such as the Iceland Volcano, the Chilean and Haiti earthquake, and all of the news of other earthquakes and volcanoes. Could you please tell me something about this to make me less worried. Hey Wilde space, I am probably smarter than you for my age. I am 15, and I have memorized all 50 states in alphabetical order. I have been able to do this for a few years. I like to watch history to see the cool stuff that happens now and in the past. And beside, I have never seen terminator or aliens, and I think transformers is a great movie, and i am not afraid of aliens, i am afraid of the world ending, hello 2012!!!! I remember one of the history shows where they said for every end of the 13 years or whatever for the myan calendar is, something bad happened. and this is the 13th end, the last one!! Well, like I just said, nothing significant happens at the end of our years, other than the next year coming, or decade, century, millenia, or whatever.

Answer: The short answer is the 2012 stuff is male cow droppings. Nothing bad is going to happen. Everything the History Channel said about the Mayan calendar is a lie. The calendar is ending the 13th Long Cycle, but the next day the 14th will start. The Mayans don't have the issue with the number 13 that we do, so their 13th cycle is no big deal. And the 60 million people descended from the Mayans in southern Mexico and Central America think the 2012 stuff is stupid. The Sun, Earth and the center of the galaxy align *every* year. Which means it has already happened 14 times in your life, and it will happen this year and in 2011 before the big bad 2012 comes along. Earthquakes and volcanoes are a fact of life on Earth, and always have been. I'm from California. Don't tell me earthquakes are something new. BTW memorizing the states is nice, but I will be impressed if you can do it in the order that they joined the union, tell me what was happening when they joined, and recite the state capitals. And relax about 2012. It really is just a scam. I'm not lying to you.

My 15 year old cousin is the typical stubborn type of girl you see on the Maury show on Saturdays , she refuses to listen to anyone and on top of that she hangs out with these ghetto thug gang banging wannabes who talk her in the doing pretty much anything. Today she came in my room pleading for help ,telling me that she was pregnant and needed money for some type of abortion pill, I'm completely fed up with this crap because I'm 19 and I'm already working 24/7 because of this economy , and the last thing my parents need is some hard headed teen in the house , and trust me she will do this again she's not even in high school yet so this is only the beginning. How do we go about sending her somewhere? We've tried the police before and they were no help at all they only offer 30 day programs at juvenile centers then your child comes back ten times worse ,we've sent her to one of these 30 day programs before only to find out she was escaping out from the windows and through a drug test found out she was sniffing coke with one of her friends out on the streets in Miami , She was sent to haiti to live with a relative and of course a couple months later the earthquake hit ,and boarding schools are up to 4,000 a month when my mom can barely pay for the mortgage.. You would think in this economy things wouldn't be so expensive

Answer: That sucks, but the problem is, she is the only person who can change her behavior. If your whole family is on board, you should probably do some tough love and let her know that no one is going to help her. If someone helps her and she doesn't hit rock bottom, she is just going to continue her destructive behavior and hurt your family even more in the process. Good luck, and ya, this economy sucks!

Answer: your SAT scores aren't going to cut it. you need a 2150+ to be competitive for these schools. your class rank also needs to be high (top 20).

just want debatable opinions. but what i think its just an accident that happened but i dont understand why when Haiti had their earthquake, obama rushed to ANOTHER countries rescue... and now with our oil spill he isnt doing shit!!! and yes i am sooooo against obama. exactly, everyones complaining about it yet theyre not taking just one extra step to get rid of it

Answer: I don't think there was much that Obama or anybody else could do (although BP could have had more people helping to clean it up). It was an incident that was very much a hit or miss, trial by error deal. My opinion, it was a tragedy that shouldn't have happened (there should have been better studies/equipment put into place before hand) and I'm thankful that we may be near the end of it. I'll be more mad if changes in regulation don't occur now.
