Your Questions About Food Network

Susan asks…

What are the worst cakes that have ever been done on Food Network Challenge?

Recently I watched the episode when Kerry Vincent was the mystery client and one of the chefs (Stevie?, I think that’s her name) made an extremely nasty looking cake. She was one of the worst cake artists I’ve ever seen on this show. Her kitchen was a mess, her cake was disgusting, she put strawberries on top for the height, and she puts flammable liquid on it and sets it on fire! So, that made me wonder if there was anymore cake artists like that on Food Network Challenge.

Michelle answers:

That was actually the cake that I was going to use as an example. Her idea was just plain stupid and I agree with Kerry in the fact that the cake was all about Stevie. Every time I think about the cake, I laugh because she honestly thought it was wonderful.

John asks…

Food Network Food Detectives – I missed the ending to the show (How did it turn out)?

On the Food NetworkFood Detectives Identical twins were tested to see if drinking a lot of water improves the appearance of skin. I got a telephone call and missed the outcome. Did water help the appearance?

Michelle answers:

Yes it did work. The twin who drank the water had a glowing, healthy look and the other twin’s skin was sallow and pale looking. I love Food Detectives!

Joseph asks…

Where can I find food network magazine?

I’ve been trying to find food network magazine all over town (New York City) and I can’t seem to find it on any newsstand! I know I can subscribe to it but I would like to take a look at it before I subscribe.

Michelle answers:

Kohls in brooklyn =]

Donald asks…

how much help do food network chefs receive?

In the time that viewers can’t see, how much help do food network chefs receive? For example, before the show and during the commercial breaks.

Michelle answers:

I agree with Gene and Dave, but Paula Dean is an overweight finger licking grandma, not a chef, and to speed things up in the time allotted they need the food to be pre-prepped, look at the credits on any show and see the food stylists, kitchen assistants, sous chefs etc, they receive the recipe and then ge the product ready, some that do simple dishes like Martin Yan and others, simplify things to a few ingredients to be prepared, plus like with Iron Chef America, it is staged and they compact it into an hour program.

Your Questions About Fafsa

Carol asks…

After my FAFSA application has been processed and all, is there anything more I need to do?

I’ve applied for my FAFSA about a month ago and got an email that I may be eligible for such and such, however, is there anything else that I need to do afte rmy FAFSA application has been processed and all? It’s already in the system and has been process. I’m starting back school in the FALL, anything else I need to do now?

Michelle answers:

Yes, you need to contact your school and find out what else they need from you.

Unless you have received an “Award Letter” from them, you still don’t have a financial aid offer yet. Most schools have already sent them out to those who did their FAFSAs back in Feb and March.

Nancy asks…

Can you apply for FAFSA if you start school in the spring semester instead of the fall? When is the deadline?

As far as I’m aware, when you start your application, they ask you which term you’re applying for and it says 2011-2012 or 2012-2013, but would they be referring to terms that start with the fall semester?

How do you go about applying for financial aid if you start school in the spring? And when is the window open to apply for FAFSA?

Michelle answers:

The 2012-2013 fafsa covers fall 2012, spring 2013 and summer 2013.

So if you mean you will attend in spring 2013 then you should do that one and really you should have done it Jan 1 to maximize your award. Http://www.fafsa.ed.gov/

File Your FAFSA Early This Year! And here’s why…

Click the headings in white across the top: http://studentaid.ed.gov/students/publications/completing_fafsa/2012_2013/main.html
When filling it out if you ahve questions call FAFSA directly: http://www.fafsa.ed.gov/contact.htm

Mark asks…

What will be my expected contribution in relation to the fafsa?

I live in a single parent home (my other parent will not be paying anything). My mom makes around $80,000 per year. Our house is valued around $120,000. I didn’t want to go through the trouble of filing a fafsa as I am only a sophomore, so I was looking for an estimate as to what our family’s expected contribution will be. Thanks in advance!

Michelle answers:

Your EFC ( Estimated Expected Family Contribution) is based on a number of different things.. The family size, your parents (and yours if you worked enough to file taxes ) the Ajusted Gross Income,Working Wages Salaries and Tips, exemptions, Amount with income tax paid. Different questions about money coming in and out, if a single parent (living apart for more than 6 months of the year or divorced) amount of assests not including the home you live in, ect.. Thats not something that anyone could really estimate.. Sorry that doesnt help much

Susan asks…

How to fill out FAFSA if your parents don’t want to provide you financial aid in college?

Im a junior and I see my senior friends filling out the FAFSA, I heard it was bases on your households annual income, and that will determine how much financial aid you receive in the form of scholarships when you attend college. But what if your parents choose to not help, and you are independent at 18 years of age, but are in need of financial aid, am I able to receive any financial aid in my position?

Michelle answers:

Being a legal adult and being an independent student for financial aid are entirely different things. The government requires your parents’ income information even if they do not plan to help you. You are considered a dependent student until you are 24, married, have a child, join the army or earn a bachelor’s degree.
Scholarships are based on merit, and your parents’ income won’t have much of an impact on this. Also, you’ll never know what types of aid you qualify for until you actually fill it out. You will also be offered student loans no matter what.
It doesn’t matter whether you are planning to live with your parents or not. Also, do not search for FAFSA, there are many fake sites out there that will make you pay and they show up at the top of most search engines. The FAFSA is free to fill out and here is the website: http://www.fafsa.ed.gov

I want to use an older version of Firefox because I don’t like 4.0. I have the verson I want, but when I install it, it will always automatically update to 4.0. How can I just download the older version without it updating?

First one is to uninstall your firefox 4 and reinstall firefox 3/3.6 whichever version you prefer and disable the Automatic Software Update.

1. Click “Tools”, selecting “Options”.

2. When the “Options” dialog box appears, click “Advanced”.

3. Click the “Update” tab.

4. Underneath “Automatically check for updates to”, uncheck “Firefox”, “Installed Extensions and Themes”, and/or “Search Engines”, as desired.

5. Click “OK” to close the dialog box.’

How can I make Firefox offer to remember user id and password?

When Firefox offered to remember user id and password for a site, I accidentally clicked “never for this site”. But now I want Firefox to remember them for the site. How can I make Firefox offer to do them again. I tried tools/options/security/ remember password and then exceptions. But that site is not entered in the exceptions.

Thank you for your help.

Michelle answers:

In the tool bar, click:

Your Questions About Fedex

James asks…

Will FedEx Office provide me with a suitable box if I need to ship something bulky?

Hey everyone. I need to ship a queen-sized comforter halfway across the US.

Will FedEx Office provide me with an appropriately sized box in which to ship the blanket? Or will I have to package it myself?

What should I expect? Anyone know for sure?
How much will FedEx charge me for the box and the actual shipping?

Michelle answers:

I think they will make you pay for the box and then ship it for you.

William asks…

Can I go to the Fedex Facility and pick up a package early?

I ordered a new phone and I need it today. Its already down at the local FedEx facility ready for shipping. But the problem is Verizon didn’t pay for Saturday delivery so I won’t get the phone until Monday. If I go to the FedEx facility, will I be able to pick up my package? It requires home delivery and a signature. Thanks.

Michelle answers:

Even though the shipper didn’t pay for Saturday delivery, if the truck is scheduled to be in your area today and especially if it isn’t already scheduled to be in the area on Monday, that package may already be on the truck. If it’s on the truck, you won’t be able to pick it up today. Call first and confirm that it’s actually there.

Charles asks…

What happens when you ship something by fedex to and area that doesnt have a fedex office?

I shipped something by fedex and then went on the internet and noticed there are no fedex locations for 150 miles of destination. what will happen to the package
if a first attempt is made and no one is there do they make a second attempt

Michelle answers:

The package goes to the address you put on it, regardless or how far away an office is.

Nancy asks…

What is FedEx home delivery and ground shipping?

i want to order something and i don’t know what home delivery and ground shipping is. they both are the same price. just wondering which one is better and does FedEx make you sign before receiving the package?

Michelle answers:

It is up to the company your are buying from whether or not you have to sign. They have to pay extra to FedEx if they want you to sign. I am not sure of the difference, but have had both and they seem to arrive speedy-quick either way.

Betty asks…

How can I prevent a facebook user from viewing a band page I’m a facebook admin on?

The person is a Facebook user, but not a fan of the page or on my friends list (So the ban option isn’t available for the page), she’s just stalking me on Facebook and is tracking my actions via the band page I admin. All I want is to prevent her from accessing the Bands page! Help please!

Michelle answers:

From what I understand, band and fan pages are public, so you can’t block her from seeing it.

You CAN go to your personal privacy settings and add her to your block list. Generally that prevents someone from seeing anything you do on the site with the exception of actions within games and applications you both use.

Lizzie asks…

Your Questions About Fox News

Helen asks…

How did a biased Fox News docu-mercial convince their viewers that the Dems caused today’s financial mess?

Both parties are as guilty as sin coupled with the failed leadership of two idiots named GW Bush and Nancy Pelosi.

How has Fox News talked their viewers into excusing Bush and the GOP of their crimes and incompetence yet again?

Michelle answers:

Well, it is pretty obvious that government interference with the free market via over regulation is the base cause of the problems. The chains did not allow the market to adjust when it would have been relatively painless and now we are stuck with a dam about to burst. It just wasn’t a hard sell. It goes back to GHW Bush and his policy clone WJ Clinton actually, when they started dismantling the Reagan reforms that saved the economy in the 80s. Certainly W Bush made things worse as did Pelosi but by the time Congress actually acted (W Bush warned about the Fannies being a time bomb some six times and repeatedly asked Congress (both the Republican and Democrat led ones) to act but they ignored him) nothing could be easily done.

Bottom line is that, we the people, have allowed our federal government to get too big, too powerful, and out of control. We elect our representatives (although the choice is severely limited) so we are the cause and the fix. The start is to stop the mad socialist from being elected President so he cannot add more fuel to the fire and his bogus claim to change things for the better.

Daniel asks…

In what ways would you say CNN and Fox News are similar and different?

CNN and Fox News are Cable News Networks that are on 24 Hour a Day, Seven Days A Week, 365 Days A Year. What would you say are the similarities and differences between CNN and Fox News.

Michelle answers:

I almost always watch Fox news to get my info; I trust them more. I much prefer their style of reporting, etc. They tell the truth and let the viewers make up their own minds.

However, I have to say that Larry King is the best part of CNN. He was kind enough to have on his show tonight, Richard and Lindsey Roberts of ORU plus a phone-in from the elder Oral Roberts, founder of ORU. There is currently a “smear” campaign going out against the Roberts family. I personally am acquainted with some of the students and graduates there, and they are very fine and wonderful people. I have visited ORU, the campus, watched taping of the TV show, attended class there and I have nothing but good things to say about the Ministry.

Joseph asks…

Where can I watch Fox News live without adding a tool bar?

I found one site but it is very undependable and now wants a password but has no place to sign up! Just about every site that shows Fox News Live wants to add a tool bar and I don’t want another tool bar. We had to give up our dish and now depend on the computer. The last one I found ended up having a virus when I tried to download it. Anyone know of a tool bar, password, virus free site?

Michelle answers:

-What ?! You don’t Want another Tool Bar -and ALL the Pop-ups, Advertisements & Viruses than come With It ?? 😮 WHAT kind of a FOX Viewer are You ??! 😉

Charles asks…

Should we start a drinking game for when a liberal mentions Fox News?

How many of you are accused of watching Fox News even though you don’t?

Michelle answers:

All the time! I say drink double when they call it Faux News.

Mary asks…

i was on funbrain and i got an poptropica account but i need help with everything please help me im desprate!!

help with how i get the flag and the dark place with the egg i already found the pig/hog

Michelle answers:

Poptropica instructions:
first you have to go into “the pit”. At the bottom, there is a pig, but watch out for the spiders! Then, if you don’t have the glow stick, go to the “storage cavern” to get it. The glowstick is at the top left corner. Use the boxes to weigh the other sides of the scale. Once you got that then you go to the “dark room”. Go left all the way to the last rope. (there’s only one) go down it. Then go to the right, and go down the second rope. Then go to the right again, and go down that. The go to the left until you see the golden egg. Once you got that, get out of there and go to the “purple giant”, which is at the top of the building “roof top resturaunt” but you need to go from building to building until you get to that building. Once you are on the “rooftop resturaunt” go up the green rope. And once you are by the purple giant click on him, and he will let you pass. Then go all the way to the giant’s garden.that water bucket should be at the end of that part. Pass that to get to the aircraft graveyard. Go in there, and at the other end of it, there is a jetpack. Use that, and then go back to the giant’s garden. Then go past over the shovel, and into the hole, labled exit. Go through that hole. Then it should take you straight to the flag. You have now gotten all the items. Return them to the early poptropica. When you finish giving the flag back to that guy, go all the way to the right. On the dock, there should be a ship. That level is coming soon. Well, hope that helped! Good-bye!

Your Questions About Forever 21

Laura asks…

Can i exchange the clothes i bought months ago at forever 21?

I went to buy clothes at forever 21 during summer & we had our family vacation so i did not have time to return the clothes i bought. It is already over 30 days. They were too big for me. I was planning on returning it at another forever 21 branch. Is there possibility i could still return these? do all forever 21 have the same records of item purchases? i really can’t wear them & i need clothes for school.

Thank you & please be nice 🙂

Michelle answers:

No you can’t. F21 has a strict return policy. Even if you didn’t pass the return before 30 days rule they wouldn’t give you your money back, they’d give you store credit. However, since they are new clothes go to Platos Closet and sell it to them. They won’t give you a lot but they’ll give you something. Or, if the clothes you bought are cotton they will shrink in the wash. Sorry hun.

Richard asks…

Does anyone know if the Forever 21 at Bellis Fair mall in Bellingham, have a guys section?

I’m meaning to cross the border next week, and unfortunately no H&M until Seattle, so Forever 21 will have to do. But I did a little looking up, and it doesn’t say it includes men. Any answers?
Oh yeah, and what’s the difference between Forever 21 and Forever XXI? Does Forever XXI sell both genders and ages?

Michelle answers:

Call them:
(360) 733-5436

James asks…

Is it possible to work for Forever 21 and Aries at the same time?

I just got hired at Forever 21 yesterday for the night shift and also received a phone call from Aries about a interview at the same time. Is it possible I could work at both stores without any conflict?

Michelle answers:

You’d either have to re-schedule your shift or the interview.
It is possible that you can work two jobs, but it’s pretty hard and very tiring. But there shouldn’t be any conflict as long as the hours you work for both stores do not intertwine with one another.

By the way, this has nothing to do with horoscopes.

Jenny asks…

How big is the Forever 21 in the Florida Mall?

I live about an hour away from Orlando. And the nearest Forever 21s are in Orlando. I usually go to the one at the Millenia Mall because the last time I was at the Florida Mall, their Forever 21 was really small. But I heard they got a new, bigger one? Is that true?

Michelle answers:

Its just about the same, you should go to the prime and premier outlets as they actually have really big forever 21 stores and they are cheaper

Do you see the food network?

What do you think of it? Do you think that in the show the next food network star Rory should have win? I think she sould have win.

Michelle answers:

Ya I voted for her….I really liked Jag
to bad he lied and all.
As for the show I like Hell’s Kitchen better.

Mandy asks…

What happens to the food on Food Network?

This is kind of a silly question, but I’m curious….what happens to all of the food that is prepared in the shows on the Food Network. I’m assuming that Someone eats it, but who? None of the hosts are corpulent enough to have consumed that much food. So if any of you know… :-p thanks!

Michelle answers:

I agree with the others in that it’s either the cast or crew, and I hope they give it to shelters or soup kitchens etc that would be a great idea. But i remembered the seinfeld rant about cooking shows, I’ll go look it up so i can quote it correctly… Ah here we go:

“I will never understand why they cook on TV. I can’t smell it. Can’t eat it. Can’t taste it. The end of the show they hold it up to the camera, “Well, here it is. You can’t have any. Thanks for watching. Goodbye.”

hahaha love it 😀

Lisa asks…

Are you upset at all the reality competitions the Food Network has?

I liked watching actual cooking shows on the Food Network, but now it’s all competition between chefs.

Michelle answers:

Yes
television has become so boring
everything is about competition and drama

Lizzie asks…

Where can i find torrents for food network shows?

I’m currently studying abroad, and i cannot access the food network, so torrents would be awesome. The pirate bay has a small amount of older episodes of some of these shows, but none that are really current. I”m really only looking for iron chef america, the next iron chef, and chopped.

thanks for the help.

Michelle answers:

Stop using The Pirate Bay then. I’m looking at every single episode here up to Season 9, episode 21 on a private torrent tracker. And every single one of them is uploaded in both standard definition and 720p also. Join a private tracker and stop using trash like The Pirate Bay. Or learn to use newsgroups.
