Lily Allen's song, LDN, is it a cover?

I%26#039;m pretty sure I%26#039;ve heard it before, but I%26#039;m also pretty sure I%26#039;ve never heard of Lily Allen until a couple of months ago. Anyone know?

Lily Allen%26#039;s song, LDN, is it a cover?
It%26#039;s not a cover, it%26#039;s her own song. I love that song, and I love Lily! Answerer 2 is right, you might have heard it from The Nanny Diaries.


But her only cover songs so far are:





Everybody%26#039;s Changing, originally by Keane.


An absolutly phenomenal cover, if I may say so myself. I bought her EP for it.


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gheYf9kvB...











Naive, originally by The Kooks.


Another great cover. Bought this EP album too.


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XCMrGSbji...











Don%26#039;t Get Me Wrong, originally by The Pretenders.


This one%26#039;s not released on album yet....I hope it will be soon though.

Reply:The song is an original recording by Lily.
Reply:Lily Allen%26#039;s %26quot;LDN%26quot; is not a cover of another artist%26#039;s work. Lily Allen co-wrote %26quot;LDN.%26quot; You may have heard it before on a compilation album released in 2002 by Rajon Records titled, %26quot;Pepsi: More Music, Vol. 2.%26quot; or on the soundtrack album for the film %26quot;The Nanny Diaries.%26quot;

Lily's Eyes?

Who else cracks up every time they hear %26quot;Lily%26#039;s Eyes%26quot; from The Secret Garden, just because it reminds them forceably of the heroic Harry Potter? (And who else thinks that%26#039;s why it%26#039;s the best song in the play)?

Lily%26#039;s Eyes?
Mr Peter/Potter,


When I hear Lily%26#039;s Eyes I remember the musical, because it existed way before Harry did. I can understand that the link might be amusing if you%26#039;re a big HP fan, and I guess Snape and James could sing it as a duet in Potter The Musical...should such a thing ever happen....
Reply:Just so everyone knows, I never meant this question to be offensive in any way, I really do love this song, not just for the reasons stated on my description. I met Lucy Simons the other night, and she is some lady. (Plus, I%26#039;m a sucker for musicals! What can I do?) Report It

Reply:no idea what the hell u are talking about
Reply:Actually I tear up. I happen to love that song and I love the sentiment behind it. It never reminds me of Harry Potter, but your Avatar sure does. It%26#039;s the best song in Secret Garden because of the torment the two men share in having lost Lily and how effective it is in bringing that across.





my two cents,

Lily allen song?

is this song by lily allen called ldh or ldn?





the lyrics are:





Riding through the city on my bike all day


Cause the filth took away my license


It doesn%26#039;t get me down and I feel OK


Cause the sights that I%26#039;m seeing are priceless





Everything seems to look as it should


But I wonder what goes on behind doors


A fella looking dapper, but he%26#039;s sitting with a slapper


Then I see it%26#039;s a pimp and his crack whore





You might laugh you might frown


Walkin%26#039; round London town





[Chorus]


Sun is in the sky oh why oh why ?


Would I wanna be anywhere else


Sun is in the sky oh why oh why ?


Would I wanna be anywhere else





When you look with your eyes


Everything seems nice


But if you look twice


you can see it%26#039;s all lies





etc


because i downloaded it off a cd and it said that it was called ldh, but most websites say ldn? (which i assume stands for london, which is what the songs about)


thanks, i just want to get it right!

Lily allen song?
LDN
Reply:%26quot;LDN%26quot; It is the abbreviation for the London Airport I believe.

Lily allen?

anyone else hear lily allen,s new song this morning on radio !? the 1st few bars are ripped straight from `karma police` by radiohead. not a big fan of either but whats ur opinion?

Lily allen?
well,her dad Keith ALlen didnt get her famous! i had heard of her before she was %26#039;famous%26#039; or mainstream, and people like me heard her too and told others to listen (on her myspace)and then she got offered a contract because people loved her so much.It is in her style of music to arrange and interpret different music and styles and putting her twist on them,and personally i like what she has done.Track 2 off her album is actually this realllyy old country song, and you should hear what she%26#039;s done to it now.i do not feel she is simply ripping off other artists. and people also blame her for looking different/wearing different things....she is simply being herself,not copying others (because i dont see other pop stars going round in dresses and trainers) and you dont have to copy her,it shouldnt even bother you so why complain?i certainly wont be copying her anyway. And they have already made up a name for her style - %26quot;retro Chav%26quot;. Jeez this world needs a label for everything. Rant over,nice discussion.
Reply:Lily Allen ROXXXXX!!!!!!!!! Report It

Reply:haha... retro chav Report It

Reply:everyone rips everyone else%26#039;s music these days, those aren%26#039;t the only samples in the album.





Her lyrical content, rhyming style, use of language and beautiful, girly-yet-full-of-attitude vocals make her one of my fave artists at the mo.
Reply:I don%26#039;t like it
Reply:lilly allen may not be the pretist girl but she bring a whole new style to music and so what if her dad sang vindaloo and is the evil guy in robin hood she makes good music and alsoshe is becoming a star in the usa and in my books thats when you know she isa good artist
Reply:i like her style never been in to that type of stuff b4 but she has got my vote her stuff is fun
Reply:Mhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..............
Reply:Right..i really like lily Allen, and if you listen to her lyrics and music they are really good.


Keith Allen or what ever he%26#039;s called didn%26#039;t make her famous, he left her and her family when she was young and i dont think she has had any contact with him for a long time.


she is unique. unlike all these shouty screamy bands that all sound the same. she is fresh new talent.


And half the time she doesn%26#039;t even diss all the celebs you hear about her talking about., and at least she has a voice and says what she thinks. unlike some other %26#039;independent%26#039; artists that only talk through arranged press conferences and get statements given for them by their manager.


so there. lily Allen rules. =D
Reply:i personally like lily allen, her album is really good....are you talking about her alfie song? thats a good song lol
Reply:she is an arrogant git!! and whats with trainers and a dress,





did you know she is fat les%26#039;s daughter. the one who sang Vindaloo....
Reply:personally I dont care about what she looks like or what she is like as a person, I love her album and its the music that counts.
Reply:Shes a pri*k, her daddy got her famous though she said it wasnt. Theres millions of better singers than her out there. I haven t heard her new song yet and hope i dont hear it too soon as her blooming songs were never off the tv and radio during the summer.
Reply:she also has really bad eye liner
Reply:Lily Allen - dizzy tart who makes a gimmick of not being able to articulate a coherent sentence.





Sorry love, Oasis have already done the %26#039;we%26#039;re cool %26#039;cos we%26#039;re thick%26#039; thing.

Lily Padz?

Has anyone ever used the Lily Padz and do they really work at preventing leakage?

Lily Padz?
I haven%26#039;t used LilyPadz, though I have used Johnson and Johnson brand disposable nursing pads. Those worked out well. Kind of like pantyliners for your bra.
Reply:check this out: http://www.amazon.com/LilyPadz... Report It

Reply:As for I know these are pads worn underneath the bra


so they can soak the milk if it comes out when breast are full


and ovoid spoiling of bra, the leaked milk will not comes out on dress and saves embarrassment in case it happens


so please try if you have felt embarrassment anytime in past.


good luck try and error are the best teachers.

I haven%26#039;t heard much of lily allens music, but, i see her in a lot of the magazines and she looks like a good role-model for kids. +++ her accent and sometimes her style are cool.
Reply:Amy Winehouse is definitly more original. She%26#039;s bringing back 60s doowop and is putting her own dirty twist on it. I love Lily Allen as well, and listen to her extensively.

But isn%26#039;t Lily%26#039;s mom already married? I%26#039;m pretty sure that in previous episodes, Lily%26#039;s dad is mentioned. How would this episode work? PLEASE NO HANNAH BASHING. ANSWER ONLY IF YOU HAVE AN ANSWER.

New Hannah Montana Episode? Isn%26#039;t Lily%26#039;s mom married?
Yeah, I was thinking about the same thing. I know for sure that he has been mentioned once, when Miley wanted to go to the concert in Florida to compete with Makayla and her Dad%26#039;s back get%26#039;s injured Miley gives a little speach and then asks, %26quot;Will you be able to make it to Florida?%26quot; He replys, %26quot;Don%26#039;t worry, Miles, I%26#039;ll be fine.%26quot; Lilly then exclaimes, %26quot;I doubt it! When my dad%26#039;s back gives out (forgot the rest of this sentence.) Last Thanksgiving we had to eat around him!%26quot; So, that%26#039;s a time that her Dad has been mentioned and I%26#039;m sure he has been mentioned to other times, too. My guess is that they will say that her parents are divorced. Hope this helps!
Reply:Actually, in this episode Lilly actually mentions that her mom divorced her dad. I belive she says it in the beginnerg when her mom is ordering take out after the parent teacher meeting. She mentions it either at that time or shortly after that. But i do no she says her mom and dad divorced. Report It

Sister for Lily-Rose?

-not my child-





Lily-Rose is due to have a little sister soon, and her parents are having trouble coming up with a new name. They%26#039;d like something that was poetic without being Cheesy, and not too naturey (adding more flowers/plants/nature on top of Lily-Rose would shape up to be a bit ... overdone)





Any suggestions? If it helps, the child will almost definately be dark haired and dark eyed (mother has dark-brown/nearly black hair, father has black ... both parents have dark brown/black eyes). Both parents also have pale skin.





Thankyou for the help!

Peace lily alternative for a betta?

Hi,





I pretty much have the setup shown here: http://www.bettatalk.com/betta_in_a_vase...





My betta has been happy and healthy in the bowl for over a year now, and I follow the directions on this page to the letter...he has plenty of space, gets fed regularly, etc.





My question is: are there any plants I can put in the top of the bowl instead of the peace lily I initially bought? The peace lily works great but is getting really old and needs to be replaced but naturally a new one is IMPOSSIBLE to find. Any alternatives?

Peace lily alternative for a betta?
Water lettuce can be used in a betta tank. If kept trim and not allowed to set runners, still allows your fish to surface for air when needed.





I would discourage any LARGE plant that would take up the entire surface of the water or roots that would crowd the bowl.
Reply:You do realize that the setup on that site is there to DISCOURAGE people from doing it not to show how. Bettas need more swimming room and as already mentioned, need surface area to breathe as they get their air from the surface. At the least, take the flower out and if possible, get a larger, filtered tank.
Reply:I wouldn%26#039;t suggest any plant for the top of the tank. That is to say I would sugges that you put no plant there. The betta will be even better off without the plant blocking the surface of the water.





MM
Reply:You should feed your betta live bloodworms or other live food found at your local fish store, just ask the manager. Also you need to replace the water no later than once a month.





So you can keep him like that, but you just need to feed him and replace water regularly or he will die eventually and not of old age.

Y&R-- Lily's not preggers (Spolier/opinions)?

Cane and Lily are soon trying to make out the baby on the screen as the technician performs the ultrasound. Is that the baby? Lily asks. When the tech hurries out, Lily worries - why she didn%26#039;t answer the question?





When the doctor comes back, she reports Lily%26#039;s not pregnant - it was an anembryonic pregnancy - the sac develops in the womb but it%26#039;s empty - an abnormality stopped the embryo from developing - 30% of pregnancies result in miscarriage - the test picked up the hormones. I felt pregnant, Lily%26#039;s bewildered (as Cane hugs her) - I don%26#039;t understand.








This is a spoiler I found-- why do a storyline like this that lasts two weeks? Makes no sense, where%26#039;s this lead?

Y%26amp;R-- Lily%26#039;s not preggers (Spolier/opinions)?
Wow...that is so strange....why would they do that?? I was just thinking how mature Lily was actually acting. The most mature thing I have seen her do in the last year was tell Cane NO i can%26#039;t marry you.





I didn%26#039;t think she was far enough along to have an ultrasound. I guess she is only what..2-2 %26amp;1/2 months? I thought they waited until you were about 4 months. I could be so wrong...I have been before and this is a soap opera after all....





IDK....this was a stupid thing to do. I guess they changed their minds about her being pregnant...(big sigh IJDK)
Reply:This is the first i am hearing something like this. I have heard of tubular pregnancy%26#039;s where the embryo - gets caught in the tube. But - never a pregnancy like this one. I really feel bad for lily and Kane now. It%26#039;s like - they were just starting to get use to having the baby. And - it turns out - that there is no baby at all. That is really heart wrenching.
Reply:OMG! I was just starting to get into the whole story of Lilly being pregnant.


If this is the case on Y%26amp;R, then I think it is a really lame way to end Lilly%26#039;s pregnancy.


Why end it anyway? Because she is young? Unmarried? Is there a moral to this whole story?
Reply:This is true. It happened on Today%26#039;s GLOBAL episode. All you CBS%26#039;ers will see it on Monday.





I am so sad for her.

Reply:i don%26#039;t know. maybe now she can keep her career and then plan to get pregnant the next time. i was hoping she was pregnant though. they always drag out all the storylines, sometimes it seems like forever and a day before you find out something.
Reply:I think its a way to show that Lily chose to have the baby rather than have an abortion, that she was going to do the right thing.
Reply:Yeah...I kind of knew that Lily would not carry the baby to term. It really didn%26#039;t make any sense to make her pregnant at this time...Maybe this is supposed to make them stronger as a couple.

Can a lily get through winter?

Can a lily get through a english winter? I know that, as I would call it a %26#039;normal%26#039; lily can but, I had a lily that had green leafs with white spots and yellow flowers I kept it well protected through winter (now) and still am the leafs have died back like a normal lily but i was unsure if this type of lily would come back, will it?

Can a lily get through winter?
It really depends on the variety of the Lily, %26amp; how hardy the bulb is for your zone. Without knowing the name %26amp; type of lily you have, it%26#039;s a wait %26amp; see situation.





There are about 100 species and many cultivars in each; extensively bred genus. The origin or native provenance helps determine the appropriate ecological garden habitat.


http://pss.uvm.edu/pss123/bullily.html





Good Luck!
Reply:Lillies are extremely hardy. If you mulched about six inches deep, you should see its return. The leaves will, of course,die back in winter but don%26#039;t give up. My lilies survive a Northern Michigan winter. In the spring, when the ground has warmed, I pull back the mulch, let the sunshine hit the soil and the lilies usually reappear about the middle of May.
Reply:There many species and varieties of lilies, some hardy -some tropical.


The first lily that comes to my mind that has white spotted leaves is a calla lily which isn%26#039;t very hardy.





Good luck.

Rain Lily?

Someone gave me a flower that they called a, %26quot;rain lily%26quot;. It looks like a day lily, except it%26#039;s purple. Does anyone know what it is?

Rain Lily?
Family:Amaryllidaceae


Genus: Zephyranthes


Species: there are several; candida, grandiflora, atamasca, citrina, robustus, drummondii and on and on


Rain Lilies are so named because they bloom only with rain. A native of South America, it is found naturalized in the lower South. Some are sterile, others self sow.





Bulbs should be planted at a depth where the %26quot;neck%26quot; is just under the soil line. It is not particular about soil types. Prefers full sun
Reply:http://www.thelensflare.com/gallery/p_li...


Texas Rain Lilly is very small and usually comes up wild in lawns %26amp; fields. Pop up like mushrooms during rains and then dissappear when the ground dries. Only seen them in white but hybrids are more than possible. Day lillies are much larger. Stepping up is the Calla.

Can I plant a Calla lily and a Bella Donna lily side by side?

I don%26#039;t mean in the same hole.


Can you name this lily,it is white trumpet shaped,a number of flowers and leaves on the stem,I have known it to be called the November lily or St.Joseph lily as he is often depicted holding one .Thanks

Can I plant a Calla lily and a Bella Donna lily side by side?
sorry ladies, calla %26amp; bella side by side is NOT a good idea. the AMARYLLIS belladonna is a native to south africa. performs best with warm, dry summers, well drained soil is a must have %26amp; gets all the water it needs from winter rains. the ZANTEDESCHIA or Calla lily Z. aethiopica, is also a native from south africa, but from ahole different neighborhood. completely different cultural needs then the belladonna. calla thrives in moist, even boggy soil all year. while belladonna is warm%26#039;n her buns in the warm summer sun, calla gets overheated and needs some protection from the sun. if you give calla the moisture it needs to thrive, belladonna will rot in the ground. you give bella the warm dry summer sun she requires to thrive, calla is going to cook and die.


just %26#039;cause someone hangs a lable on you doesn%26#039;t make it so. a lily doesn%26#039;t have to be a lily, to be a lily. understand? don%26#039;t plant um together. not even close.
Reply:Sure - I%26#039;ve got lots of lillies all planted in one garden. They bloom at different times and keep the garden looking nice.
Reply:I don%26#039;t see why not, they%26#039;re both lilies...it%26#039;s not like you%26#039;re acutally planting real Bella Donna (which is a completely different plant and poisonous...)

Calla Lily.?

Does anyone know where I can find an inside of a calla lily? Like a diagram listing what part are which? Or if you could give me a picture... or a link. Im kinda having trouble. You know? Just like a picture labeling the insides of a calla lily. THANKS A BUNCH.

Calla Lily.?
The latin name is: zantedeschia aethiopica The striking arum lily %26quot;flower%26quot; is actually many tiny flowers arranged in a complex spiral pattern on the central column (spadix). The tiny flowers are arranged in male and female zones on the spadix. The top 7 cm are male flowers and the lower 1.8 cm are female. If you look through a hand-lens you may see the stringy pollen emerging from the male flowers which consist largely of anthers. The female flowers have an ovary with a short stalk above it, which is the style (where the pollen is received). The spadix is surrounded by the white or coloured spathe.The whiteness of the spathe is not caused by pigmentation, but is an optical effect produced by numerous airspaces beneath the epidermis.





The flowers are faintly scented and this attracts various crawling insects and bees which are responsible for pollinating the flowers. Cross pollination occurs as the anthers of each flower ripen before the ovaries.
Reply:The calla lily - botanical name is Zantedeschia aethreopica, is in the same family of plants that arums belong to. The Calla lily does not have a flower at at all , infact it is a modified leaf called a spathe. Plants with this charateristic belong to the Araceae family of plants. A diagram of the interior of the spathe can be found by looking here

Any variations on the name Lily?

My co-workers daughter is having a girl in March. She really wants to name the baby Lily Rose Ann. Her mother doesn%26#039;t like the name Lily, but she really doesn%26#039;t want her to name the baby Rose Ann because it sounds to much like Roseann. They want the Ann because her (my co-worker/baby%26#039;s grandma) name is Luanne. They don%26#039;t want to make it Lily Ann Rose because they don%26#039;t want people to call her Lillian.





Are their any variations of the name Lily that they could consider with the middle names Rose %26amp; Ann? What about any other names that sound good with Rose %26amp; Ann as middle names? The last name would be Hunt.

Any variations on the name Lily?
Lily Anna Rose


Lily Rose Anna


Lily Ann Rosa





its a pretty name, i like Lily Ann Rose!
Reply:I think people will mistake Rose Ann for Roseanne anyway. When you say the name, it flows to easily. Lily is a good nickname, but no adult woman wants her real name to be Lily. Lillian is the full name for Lily and I think it is pretty.

What happened to the old lily on y&r?

i watched y%26amp;r today and it had a different lily on it, i believe she was lily before the one that has been playing lily. what happened to the one that has been playing lily, is she going to be coming back or did her contract end ? sorry im not good with their real names so hopefully u can understand what i am asking

What happened to the old lily on y%26amp;r?
That%26#039;s funny cuz my sis noticed the same thing today...I never liked that rat-faced one they brought back!





Apparently, the one they just brought back, left b/c she wanted to do movies. Obviously that didn%26#039;t pan out so she somehow got brought back...maybe one of her parents works on the show or something.





The one they had for the past few months was the best so far....IMO

(Deathly Hallows) Was Lily Potter's Patronus a doe?

(spoiler warning~)





Hello,


Anyone knows which parts in HP books 1~7 mentioned that Lily Potter%26#039;s Patronus was a doe?


How did harry know that Lily Potter%26#039;s Patronus was a doe?





I really have no idea of that.





(except the part which Harry said, %26quot;Snape%26#039;s Patronus was a doe, the same as my mother%26#039;s.%26quot;)





If Lily Potter%26#039;s Patronus was really a doe,


then was Harry a fawn, then? since his dad was a stag. (It reminds me of a Disney movie)





Anyone knows what is the meaning of deer in magical world?





Thanks a lot.

(Deathly Hallows) Was Lily Potter%26#039;s Patronus a doe?
~I think he guessed it. If he had known he would have thought his mother had guided him to the sword rather than wondered throughout the entire book who it could have been.
Reply:harry%26#039;s patronous was a stag witch is a real animal but i havent read the final book yet so i dont kno i just finished book 6 today so im buying the new one tomorrow
Reply:he knew that because dumbledore told him.








No, harry%26#039;s was a stag like his dad%26#039;s.








IDK
Reply:harry%26#039;s was a stag.





and yes his mother%26#039;s was a doe.
Reply:yes lily%26#039;s is a doe...and harry%26#039;s is a stag as well. i don%26#039;t know what a deer is in magical world and i don%26#039;t know how harry knew his mother%26#039;s patronus was a doe. but harry%26#039;s is definetly a stag and lily%26#039;s a doe.

Reply:I don%26#039;t know. I don%26#039;t think it was ever actually said what her patronus was. Harry just assumes it was because his dad was a stag animagus, but that really doesn%26#039;t mean anything. Either it%26#039;s a mistake or we were told somewhere but it got cut out along the way.
Reply:Just thought i%26#039;d point out to %26quot;Unique%26quot; that Hermione%26#039;s patronums isn%26#039;t a beaver. It%26#039;s an Otter. It has nothing to do with facial features, such as teeth.
Reply:POSSIBLE SPOILER





I don%26#039;t believe it has a meaning your patronus takes form from your personallity or just fom you...Ron%26#039;s patronus is a weasle cause his last name......Hermione%26#039;s patronus is a I like a beaver or a badger..beacise of her teeth.....get it.... And if I%26#039;m not mistaken that is the only mentioning of Lily patronus being a doe I don%26#039;t think it came up in any of the other books..............





PS: Your question is Kinda a spoiler.
Reply:It wasn%26#039;t mentioned that Lily%26#039;s Patronus was a doe, but it was more Albus%26#039;s reaction to Snape%26#039;s Patronus that hints at the similarity between Lily%26#039;s and Snape%26#039;s Patronuses. Remember that in %26quot;Half-Blood Prince%26quot; Tonks%26#039;s Patronus changed when Remus refused to be with her. JKR said in a recent web chat that a person%26#039;s Patronus %26quot;often mutates to take the image of the love of one’s life (because they so often become the ‘happy thought’ that generates a Patronus)%26quot;.





Harry%26#039;s Patronus is, and has always been a stag, his father%26#039;s Animagus form, because, as mentioned in %26quot;Prisoner of Azkaban%26quot;, his father lives in him.
Reply:Lily%26#039;s patronus was never mentioned in books 1-6.





Harry finds out what her Patronus was by watching Snape%26#039;s memories in the Pensieve. Snape gave the memories to Harry as he (Snape) died.





Lily%26#039;s patronus has nothing to do with Harry. The form of the Patronus seems to be an expression of a person%26#039;s best quality.





There is no set meaning of deer mentioned in the Harry Potter magical world.
Reply:Lily%26#039;s was a doe. Snape%26#039;s, because of his love for Lily, was also a doe. Harry%26#039;s took the form his father, and animagus, transformed into. A stag.
Reply:It is not mentioned. I think Harry knows it from the pensieve... Because if it was mentioned before the end of book 7, Harry woudl obviously know that it%26#039;s his mother%26#039;s patronus and he would get confused. They are also trying to find out who%26#039;s patronus it is. So it just wouldn%26#039;t make sense if Harry knew. I think it was from the pensieve
Reply:UM WELL REMENBER THAT SOME GREAT WIZARDS CAN CHANGE THERE PATRONUS AND MAYBE SNAPE LOVED LILY VERY,VERY MUCH THAT HE CHANGED HIS PATRONUS LIKE HERS. THATS WHAT I THINK?

The American Bulldog is one of the most Loyal to his/her master. She is not only protective, but revolves her life around you. You need to train her and use the Leersburg training video%26#039;s. She need to be made to understand that what she is doing is not good. You are the one handling her and you are not using the right method to correct this situation. So you need to go back to zero and use the right steps to break her from this. An excellent American Bulldog breeder, trainer is from Iowa. He knows what you can do. So drop him an e-mail and he will guide you as to pull your wonderful dog out of this. He trains dogs and pups at Whole_tons Kennels.

The story is around a king / emperor who gives a lily plant to one of his subjects to look after. The subject takes great care in looking after the lily plant and it grows into a beautiful flower. The king / emperor comes back and asks the subject for the lily plant. The subject is disappointed because he thought the lily plant was his to keep. However, the king / emperor said that he had only given the lily plant to him to look after for a while.





The ending or morale of the story is that we are like the lily plant...we%26#039;re on earth for a short time to grow and blossom, but eventually God will come back for us.





Has anyone heard of this story?

Story of the Lily Plant?
This is a beautiful story, enjoyed reading it.


If you get a chance, you might want to ask the priest about it.

Lily beetles..?

Last summer all of my lilies were totally destroyed by bright red lily beetles turning them to pulp! Ive seen sprays to kill them but does anyone know an organic solution? apart from picking them off

Lily beetles..?
little beasts aint they?!Defo lilly beetles.Only way is to pick them off by hand,dont know of any chemicals that are affective
Reply:I don%26#039;t know how closely you examined your infested lilies, but perhaps the beetles were lady bugs eating aphids from your plants, and the aphids turned them to pulp. Aphids are lilies worst enemy. As for an organic method to kill insects, you can try the old stand by, dish detergent and water,or check out what is on the shelf for organic chemicals in your local home %26amp; garden center. There is a beetle that looks like a lady bug, it has 11 spots on its body and the lady bug has13, the plant eating orange beetle with 11 spots is a Mexican beetle, so it is touchy when beetles are involved. The aphids are more than likely the problem though and the ladybugs were eating the aphids. Treat your lilies before they become infested, spray them weekly, as long as the formula is mixed correctly you can%26#039;t hurt the plant by spraying on a weekly basis. Good Luck to you and remember ladybugs are good for the garden.

How does Lily Allen do her hair?

Hey does anyone know how? Because I%26#039;ve always wanted to do my hair like that but never really knew how. :-/

^^ pictures just in case you don%26#039;t know what im talking about





Or maybe even make up tips if you know. :)

How does Lily Allen do her hair?
Mmm. You gotta get a pomade (gentle pomade that%26#039;s not too thick, and a lifter ((like rusk)))


Part your hair with a comb or brush so you know which areas you are highlighting.


The parts you want to lift use a dryer on low speed and work thru till dried. What I mean by work thru is work with the hair the whole time it%26#039;s drying (lifting, combing, straightening...)


Anyhow, with the boundaries your hair is sure to look more Allenish. Be sure to use the pomade as a finishing touch).


Hopefully your cut and color are working otherwise whatever you do isn%26#039;t gonna be even Alfi ready :)


Make up_Of course cover the basics and get some even coverage. Then use a liner on the upper eyes. Light shadow will be fine, and add a touch of cheekiness and lip-gloss. You%26#039;re good now to go.


GL.


PEACE%26lt; hope I somehow helped.

I do not smoke and do not believe that women who are pregnant should but I know several women who have and do and has not caused them to lose the baby. My prayers are with her and her family hope she has a good support system.

Y&r's lily & cane?

does anyone else think this is the oddest coupling ever? it%26#039;s even weirder than devon%26#039;s semi-incest love for lily. cane is way too old for lily %26amp; she%26#039;s all prudish and dull. i miss the old lily. plus, i liked how cane %26amp; amber had all that sexual tension. anyone else counting down the days until they get tired of the cane %26amp; lily plot line?

Y%26amp;r%26#039;s lily %26amp; cane?
I don%26#039;t like this pairing at all..Cane%26#039;s too old for her %26amp; Lily%26#039;s a little kid..the conversations and the %26quot;chemistry%26quot; between them is too forced and its uncomfortable to watch..it just looks like Lily%26#039;s flirting with one of her dad%26#039;s older friends or something..hopefully they%26#039;ll get rid of this Cane/Lily hook up thing soon
Reply:I don%26#039;t know why, but I really like Cane and Lily. Report It

Reply:As you can see Cane is playing her. He will ask Heather out. It%26#039;s Lily that%26#039;s pursuing him anyways.
Reply:i think it%26#039;s weird that you would put lily who used to be married to daniel and cane who was supposedly married to amber together. they were friends at one time and suddenly they are throwing them together. It%26#039;s not going to work. supposedly lily is going to find out she is pregnant with daniels child and cane is not the person we all thought he was.
Reply:Kinda weird. Like the Nick/Phyllis pairing. I think Cane was so good with Amber. Too bad she had to go fake their marriage.
Reply:Cane and Lily are so odd. I will be glad when she finds her way back to Daniel.
Reply:I agree they are wrong together.....cane will take lily for a ride....he is so wrong for her
Reply:yes lily can be better he is to old for her.
Reply:i think it is a rediculous coupling idea. cane should be like 40 if hes %26quot;philip%26quot; but he seems to only be like late 20%26#039;s early 30%26#039;s. I feel the againg they do on these shows is so stupid.
Reply:I don%26#039;t exactly think it is a pairing. When Cane and Lily interact on screen, it is obvious that she likes him, but that he%26#039;s only being nice to her. But when Cane and the Assistant DA interact, there%26#039;s real chemistry. I think Lily is only going to get hurt by Cane, though not intentionally.
Reply:I agree with you,something about Cane i don%26#039;t care for.Lily needs to stay away from him.Have a good night.
Reply:Yes I think they are a very odd couple.I cant even see them being romantic at all.I want Cane and Amber back together also.They were HOT together.Now Amber will probably get with Daniel !!!!
Reply:I agree. They are just weird together. What else do they have in common besides having triflin%26#039; spouses, ex-spouses? Or in Amber%26#039;s case, never was spouse. I%26#039;m counting down too.
Reply:I liked when cane was with amber. I want lily and Danial back together too. I also think that lily is way to old for Kane and visa versa. I am hoping eventually the writers will put Danial and lily back together. And i hope it is soon. Yes! Danial has made some mistakes but i know deep down lily is still in love with Danial. That goes for Kane and amber as well. Ever time now that they have cane with some girl. It%26#039;s like it is forced. And they have no chemistry what so ever. So I%26#039;m holding out that the producers will put back what they shouldn%26#039;t have broken up in the first place.
Reply:yea they do look kid of werid 2gether i like lil and danieal 2gether
Reply:i could not say what u said any better finally someone agrees about devon and his weird incestal love for lily. and yes cane is way better with amber even though she%26#039;s not my favorite. lily is a total snore.
Reply:get tired of the plot, there is no plot. Another holier than tho attitude on this soap. Whatever will she do when she finds out the truth about him (Cane), makes Daniel look like a saint in my eyes

Could Lily be a nickname for Elizabeth?

My sister is pregnant, and wants to name her daughter Lily,but it%26#039;s tradition to give the children in our family, family names somewhere in the name





She want Lily Elizabeth, but I think that they are too close, and if she wanted to, she could name her Elizabeth, and call her Lily. What do you think?

Could Lily be a nickname for Elizabeth?
Its not a nickname for Elizabeth....





There are several nicknames from that name:





Liz


Liza


Lizzie


Beth





As for %26quot;Lily%26quot; name....





Lillian Elizabeth....then she can call her Lily
Reply:If Dick is the nickname for Richard (can anyone explain that one to me?!?), then Lily can be the nickname for Elizabeth.





I think Lily Elizabeth is a wonderful name!
Reply:It is a plain, simple fact that Lily is not short for Elizabeth. The only name Lily can be short for is Lillian, or Lily could be a name by itself. Lily could be shortened to Lil.





Elizabeth is not short for anything. Names short for Elizabeth could be:


Ellie


Elle


Eleanor


Eliza


Liz


Lizzie


Zabbie


Beth


Bethan


Liza


Bethany


Bethanne





Lily-Elizabeth is also an option, but hyphenated names are very hard to live with in this world.





Meshed names are a good idea in your situation.


Try:


Lizabeth


Lilabeth


Lillabeth


Lilibeth


Lilith


Libby


Elily


Elizy


Elzie


Elsie


Elizlily


Elizalily


Elizabelily


Elizabethily





I know some of them sound a bit outrageous, but just some ideas ;)
Reply:Lily isn%26#039;t a nickname for Elizabeth. You are right though in saying that Lily and Elizabeth are too close. Good luck and congrats to your sister!
Reply:It would be ok to name her Elizabeth and then call her Lily. Or your sister could use just Lily as an adaptation of the name Elizabeth, like my family did with some of our names.





My aunt%26#039;s name (Jenny) turned into my daughter%26#039;s name Jenna. My mom and dad%26#039;s names (Joseph and Ann) became my sister%26#039;s name Joan.





My girlfriend%26#039;s daughter is named Marseilles after her grandfather. We have always called her Marcy. And my grand-daughter%26#039;s name is Elizabeth, but we have always called her Libby.





I hope this helps you in some way.

If she wants to name her child Lily Elizabeth that its her choice, not the families.

Reply:I think she can use whatever nickname she wants. Madonna%26#039;s kid%26#039;s name is Lourdes Maria and her nickname%26#039;s %26quot;Lola%26quot;... It shouldn%26#039;t be a problem.

Namer her Elizabeth Lily and call her Lily


I don%26#039;t think Lily Elizabeth isn%26#039;t too close. I think they go together well.
Reply:Yes - it is a nickname for Elizabeth. I have a cousin named Elizabeth and she is called Lily.





It%26#039;s such a beautiful name.
Reply:Lily is not usually a nickname for Elizabeth, and is a name in its own right, and I think it sounds okay as Lily Elizabeth (don%26#039;t forget middle names are hardly used anyway). I did hear though that the Queen of England%26#039;s nickname is Lilibet, so that is kind of similar to Lily! Elizabeth as a first name will probably get shortened to Liz, Lizzy or Beth most likely.





Whatever she chooses it is lovely that your family follows tradition and honours the names of family members like that, more people should do that instead of giving their kids weird fad names that have no meaning.





All the best to your sister.
Reply:I have a daughter named Elizabeth





I personally love that name.


If her name is Elizabeth then Lily would be a great name to call her.
Reply:Lily elizabeth is very cute! My middle name is elizabeth,lily can be a nick name for Elizabeth along with Eliza,liz,beth,liza etc...goosd luck

Reply:The only connection I can really see between the names Lily and Elizabeth is that Queen Elizabeth II of England was called %26#039;Lilibet%26#039; as a child. Lily isn%26#039;t really a nickname for Elizabeth... and I think the name Lily Elizabeth is quite pretty, although the sound takes some getting used to (so many l%26#039;s!). The sound of the name is actually really melodious, now that I think about it.





I don%26#039;t think that your sister should name her child Elizabeth and call her Lily. It would just be waaayyy too confusing. Besides, if you%26#039;re going to call your child something their whole life- that may as well be their name. (Except in the case that you give the child an established nickname for a more formal name. But I%26#039;m just not going to go there ;P).





I do like your creativity and concern about your future nieces name.. But it is a really lovely, strong name that your sister chosen. Best of luck to all of you!

Marvel Comics ALPHA FLIGHT (Gilded Lily questions)?

Hi,





I have some questions regarding the old ALPHA FLIGHT villainess,


Gilded Lily (Walter Langowski%26#039;s great-Aunt from AF #20, 21 and AF Annual #1):





1) How tall do you estimate Gilded Lily was? I don%26#039;t believe the old MARVEL UNIVERSE books ever gave Gilded Lily an


%26quot;official%26quot; height listing so I was wondering what you estimate her height to have been at?





2) And physically, how strong was Gilded Lily? She physically overpowered Aurora more than once, IIRC...didn%26#039;t Aurora have superhuman strength?





3) Everytime Gilded Lily and Aurora crossed paths, Aurora was always clad in nothing but a bikini. Strange coincedence or did Aurora forget to put her clothes on? :) Or some other reason why the heroine was always half-naked?





4) Is Gilded Lily still alive? As they say in comics, %26quot;no body, no death.%26quot; Could she ever come back?





Thanx.

Marvel Comics ALPHA FLIGHT (Gilded Lily questions)?
Real Name: Lillian Von Loont


Place Of Birth: Unrevealed


First Appearance: Alpha Flight Vol.1 20


Group Affiliation: None


Base Of Opperations: Tamarind Island


Grudges: Alpha Flight


Universe: Marvel Comics


Powers:


Gilding: Gilded Lily is able to encase a victim in a gold like substance that keeps the victim alive and frozen in a statue like form forever.


Alchemy: Gilded Lily%26#039;s powers stem entirely from an arsenal of alchemical potions. The diversity and extent of the effects of her alchemy at times seem magical in nature. Her alchemy enables her to control or influence the molecules and elements in her own body, the bodies of others, or the environment itself.


Longevity: While not true immortality Gilded Lily has devised a technique that has prolonged her life for centuries. However, it has required her to shed virtually all the vestiges of her humanity.


Origins:


In 1875 Lillian Van Loont and her husband were driving through the Transylvanian alps when disaster struck. Lillian’s husband Lionel was killed outright, but Lillian survived disfigured and barely alive. She wandered through the Balkan woods until she collapsed at the gates of a castle. When Lillian awoke again she had been healed and now resided in the castle of Esteban Diablo. Esteban was of course the super villain known as Diablo and as he continued to nurse Lillian back to health the two became lovers. Diablo began to teach his alchemical arts to Lillian and she in turn was a willing student. However, Diablo held the local villages in a grip of terror and one day when Diablo’s powers were at their weakest he was captured and sealed in his own laboratory. Lillian escaped the wrath of the villagers and fled to England. Using the skills taught to her by Diablo Lillian tried to discover the key to immortality. She did not quite succeed but discovered a link between gold and Immortality.


1. probably about 6 feet 2in


2. maybe superhuman class 1


3. yes Gilded Lily was trying to steal her body and youth


4.no, she is listed as deceased. in the marvel universe anything is possible!
Reply:#2 Aurora had normal strength. However she could punch a person many times at super speed giving the illusion of super strength.


#4 of coarse she is........She%26#039;s waiting.

Snape/Lily Romance?

Snape loved Lily Potter!!





In the pensieve, Snape%26#039;s worst memory was of James using the levicorpus spell on him in front of a crowd of people. Nothing special about that- James and his friends always did that sort of thing- but this time Lily featured in the memory. Even though Lily gets James to let him down, Snape calls her a mudblood, the most offensive word you can say. This was probably because the one person who Snape loved was the one person who helped him. And because of his pride he rejects it and offends her instead.





And my other therory...





Voldemort once told Harry that his mother needn%26#039;t have died. This could be because when Snape eventually discovered who the prophecy was about he begged Voldemort to save Lily. Voldemort sometimes rewards his helpers, so this would be the only decent explanation as to why he offered her a way out. But Lily refused to leave, in order to save Harry%26#039;s life- and in doing so destroyed Snape%26#039;s instead.





Who thinks this is likely?

Snape/Lily Romance?
it%26#039;s very likely! it fits in with all my theories that snape is good! Since voldemort betray him he decided to go to Dumbldeore and be on the good side! so he was betraying voldmeort!


I’m sure we can all agree that the actions of Severus Snape in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince are very surprising. I believe that Snape’s behavior throughout the book (including the murder of Dumbledore!) makes sense only if Snape is a good guy, not a bad guy. Please hear me out before you completely dismiss this theory.


Let’s examine selected scenes from HBP in which Snape appears or is mentioned. I will show you how each scene supports my theory that Snape is Dumbledore’s man.


Spinner’s End (Chapter 2)


Assume for a moment that you are Severus Snape and that you are loyal to Dumbledore. Your mission for the Order of the Phoenix is to spy on Voldemort by pretending to be a faithful Death Eater. Narcissa Malfoy and Bellatrix Lestrange have just shown up at your door, and Narcissa wants you to swear an Unbreakable Vow to protect Draco and to kill Dumbledore if Draco cannot complete this task. How can you refuse without showing your true loyalty, especially with Bellatrix Lestrange questioning your loyalty to Voldemort? You can’t.


I contend that, whether good or evil, Severus Snape had no choice but to make the Unbreakable Vow because the Vow showed his loyalty to the Death Eaters. If you read carefully, Snape gives us a clue to show he is reluctant to make the vow:


%26quot;And, should it prove necessary, if it seems Draco will fail,%26quot; whispered Narcissa (Snape’s hand twitched within hers, but he did not draw away), %26quot;will you carry out the deed that the Dark Lord has ordered Draco to perform?%26quot;


There was a moment’s silence, Bellatrix watched, her wand upon their clasped hands, her eyes wide.


%26quot;I will,%26quot; said Snape.


Snape’s hand twitched. This small hand movement is certainly not ironclad proof of anything, but I believe it shows Snape’s hesitance to make the vow.


The Unbreakable Vow (Chapter 15)


In Chapter 15, Snape drags Malfoy away from Slughorn’s party and the two argue about Draco’s mission. Harry overhears the tail-end of the argument.


%26quot;Listen to me,%26quot; said Snape, his voice so low now that Harry had to push his ear very hard against the keyhole to hear. %26quot;I am trying to help you. I swore to your mother I would protect you. I made the Unbreakable Vow, Draco-%26quot;


%26quot;Looks like you’ll have to break it, then, because I don’t need your protection! It’s my job, he gave it to me and I’m doing it. I’ve got a plan and it’s going to work, it’s just taking a bit longer than I thought it would!%26quot;


%26quot;What is your plan?%26quot;


%26quot;It’s none of your business!%26quot;


%26quot;If you tell me what you are trying to do, I can assist you-%26quot;


Ron explains what Snape is trying to do in this scene.


%26quot;Course, you know what they’ll all say? Dad and Dumbledore and all of them? They’ll say Snape isn’t really trying to help Malfoy, he was just trying to find out what Malfoy’s up to.%26quot;


I believe Ron’s got it half right here -- Snape is trying to find out what Malfoy is doing so that he can inform Dumbledore and the Order, but also so that he can better protect Malfoy, as the Unbreakable Vow requires. Snape was forced to make the vow, but he’s trying to use it to help him spy on Malfoy for the Order. Evidence exists that Snape has told Dumbledore about Malfoy’s mission, and the Unbreakable Vow, in Harry’s next lesson with Dumbledore.


Dumbledore listened to Harry’s story with an impassive face. When Harry had finished he did not speak for a few moments, then said, %26quot;Thank you for telling me this, Harry, but I suggest that you put it out of your mind. I do not think it is of great importance.%26quot;


%26quot;Not of great importance?%26quot; repeated Harry incredulously. %26quot;Professor, did you understand-?%26quot;


%26quot;Yes, Harry, blessed as I am with extraordinary brainpower, I understood everything you told me,%26quot; said Dumbledore, a little sharply. %26quot;I think you might even consider the possibility that I understood more than you did. Again, I am glad that you have confided in me, but let me reassure you that you have not told me anything that causes me disquiet.%26quot;


Harry sat in seething silence, glaring at Dumbledore. What was going on? Did this mean that Dumbledore had indeed ordered Snape to find out what Malfoy was doing, in which case he had already heard everything Harry had just told him from Snape? Or was he really worried by what he had heard, but pretending not to be?


We can’t be positive of what is going on here, but I believe that Snape had indeed informed Dumbledore of everything. I hope you will too by the end of this editorial.


Dumbledore’s Murder (Chapter 27)


In the moment when Snape murders Dumbledore, we are meant to believe that Snape has betrayed Dumbledore. Dumbledore pleads with Snape, but Snape kills him with a quick Avada Kedavra.


If you accept that Snape has told Dumbledore about the Unbreakable Vow and Malfoy’s assignment, Dumbledore’s actions in the scene do not make much sense. He knows that Snape made an Unbreakable Vow to kill him! Why would he plead for his life when there is no way that Snape could break the vow? The answer may surprise you. Here’s the relevant text:


%26quot;We’ve got a problem, Snape,%26quot; said the lumpy Amycus, whose eyes and wand were fixed alike upon Dumbledore, %26quot;the boy doesn’t seem able-%26quot;


But somebody else had spoken Snape’s name, quite softly.


%26quot;Severus…%26quot;


The sound frightened Harry beyond anything he had experienced all evening. For the first time, Dumbledore was pleading. Snape said nothing, but walked forwards and pushed Malfoy roughly out of the way. Three Death Eaters fell back without a word. Even the werewolf seemed cowed. Snape gazed for a moment at Dumbledore, and there was revulsion and hatred etched in the harsh lines of his face.


%26quot;Severus… please…%26quot;


Snape raised his wand and pointed it directly at Dumbledore.


%26quot;Avada Kedavra!%26quot;


Snape is not a stupid man. On the contrary, he has proven himself to be quite bright over the course of the series. He arrived on the rooftop, saw Dumbledore defenseless, and Snape saw not one, but two broomsticks--- just as Draco Malfoy did.


Malfoy stepped forwards, glancing around quickly to check that he and Dumbledore were alone. His eyes fell upon the second broom.


%26quot;Who else is here?%26quot;


Snape is a smarter guy than Malfoy -- two broomsticks and only one rider? I contend that Snape knew or suspected right away that Harry Potter was somewhere nearby concealed underneath his Invisibility Cloak. With this information, Dumbledore’s pleading makes more sense. Dumbledore is not pleading for his own life; he is pleading for Snape to save Harry’s life! And Snape does exactly that by hurrying the Death Eaters off the rooftop immediately.


Harry felt as though he, too, were hurtling through space; it had not happened...it could not have happened...


%26quot;Out of here, quickly,%26quot; said Snape.


He seized Malfoy by the scruff of the neck and forced him through the door ahead of the rest...%26quot;


In fact, Snape saves Harry’s life again near Hagrid’s house. A Death Eater has apparently used the Cruciatus Curse on Harry.


But before he could finish this jinx, excruciating pain hit Harry; he keeled over in the grass, someone was screaming, he would surely die of this agony, Snape was going to torture him to death or madness-


%26quot;No!%26quot; roared Snape’s voice and the pain stopped as suddenly as it had started; Harry lay curled on the dark grass, clutching his wand and panting; somewhere above him Snape was shouting, %26quot;Have you forgotten our orders? Potter belongs to the Dark Lord -- we are to leave him! Go! Go!%26quot;


Just after Snape reveals that he is the Half-Blood Prince, it appears that he is going to kill Harry, but I do not think that was his intention in this scene:


%26quot;Kill me, then,%26quot; panted Harry, who felt no fear at all, but only rage and contempt. %26quot;Kill me like you killed him, you coward-%26quot;


%26quot;DON’T-%26quot; screamed Snape, and his face was suddenly demented, inhuman, as though he was in as much pain as the yelping, howling dog stuck in the burning house behind them, %26quot;-CALL ME COWARD!%26quot;


And he slashed at the air: Harry felt a white-hot, whiplike something hit him across the face and was slammed backwards into the ground. Spots of light burst in front of his eyes and for a moment all the breath seemed to have gone from his body, then he heard a rush of wings above him and something enormous obscured the stars: Buckbeak had flown at Snape...


Snape loses control of his emotions and hits Harry with a nasty spell, but he did not use Avada Kedavra. I believe that Snape would’ve run away even if Buckbeak had not flown in to save the day. If Snape wanted Harry dead, he had the opportunity just a moment before, when Harry was being tortured.


One final clue makes me believe Snape is still Dumbledore’s man. When Flitwick arrives at Snape’s office to tell Snape about the Death Eaters%26#039; attack, Snape stupefies Flitwick and encounters Hermione and Luna outside his office and tells them to help Flitwick. Here is Remus Lupin’s comment in Chapter 29:


%26quot;It’s not your fault,%26quot; said Lupin firmly. %26quot;Hermione, had you not obeyed Snape and got out of the way, he would have killed you and Luna.%26quot;


This begs the question: If Snape is a Death Eater through and through, why didn’t he kill Hermione? This encounter was a perfect opportunity for Snape to dispatch the annoying, know-it-all Mudblood, whom he has hated since Book 1, with a quick Avada Kedavra. Hermione, believing Snape to be an ally, would’ve been caught completely off her guard.


In conclusion, I believe Hagrid was exactly right when he explained his initial reaction to Snape’s behavior:


%26quot;What musta happened was, Dumbledore musta told Snape ter go with them Death Eaters,%26quot; Hagrid said confidently. %26quot;I suppose he’s gotta keep his cover. Look, let’s get yeh back up ter the school. Come on Harry…%26quot;


Hagrid is right on the money. Snape, having made the Unbreakable Vow (remember, he had no choice -- he had to make it), was going to have to kill Dumbledore. Dumbledore knew he was going to have to die, so he used his death to his advantage. Snape is now ideally positioned to betray Voldemort and help Harry in Book 7.


Snape is not the vicious murderer we are supposed to take him for. He was forced into making the Unbreakable Vow, and, once he made it, he used it to his advantage to try to spy on Malfoy and to gain the trust of the Death Eaters, all the better to help Harry in Book 7. Severus Snape is Dumbledore’s man, through and through.


And let’s not forget the most important thing in Snape’s favor: Albus Dumbledore trusted Severus Snape. And, as Lupin says:


%26quot;It comes down to whether or not you trust Dumbledore’s judgement. I do; therefore, I trust Severus.%26quot;
Reply:In book 7, we find out that Dumbledore was actually pleading for Snape to carry out his death, not spare his life. Snape was, as you pointed out, not fond of the idea, and although he did have the Unbreakable Vow with Narcissa to anchor him, I think he was more concerned about keeping... Report It

Reply:...his promise to Dumbledore. And I%26#039;m not surprised that he was furious at Harry for calling him a coward because it took a lot of courage and strength for him to do what he needed to do. So, I%26#039;m glad that when Harry looks into Snape%26#039;s memories, he acquires a newfound respect for the man. Report It

Reply:Omg Just reading that Snape loved Lily makes me wan%26#039;t to trow up I mean he called her a mudblood and it is just wrong Report It

Reply:Wow...what a thoroughly thought out theory! If I hadn%26#039;t known better, I would%26#039;ve thought you were JK Rowling herself! And it completely hit the mark and proved to be correct in the 7th book! Report It

Reply:Yes Sev loved Lily...BIG DEAL! He was still a mass murderer. Sev honestly believed that pureblood crap, he was mean and seperatist even in high scool (even tho he was bullied by PUREBLOODS) He had been a death eater for YEARS. They didnt throw parties, people. They KILLED. Report It

Reply:I dunno. I think it%26#039;s too simple. The only simple (yet unexpected) explanation in the series is how Harry was able to survive Voldemort%26#039;s killing curse. Love. But all the rest of the mysteries in the series were not that simple. Snape is the most complicated of all the HP characters and I believe it won%26#039;t do his character justice if JKR simply explains it that way. JKR is known for her unexpected twists and explanations at the end of each book and I would find it really disappointing if your theory proves to be correct. Nice theory though I thought about it at first but dismissed the idea afterwards.
Reply:I do! This a one of the best, well thought out theories I%26#039;ve heard so far!
Reply:I like the way you think, that explains why Snape is always helping Harry even though he despises him.
Reply:WOW! I used to think that this theory was a joke. But after you explained it like that! OMG now it%26#039;s starting to make sense. Thank you sooo much!
Reply:I%26#039;ve always sort of thought that too!Spape hates with all his guts padfoot,loony,you know,all of them,for their cruel teasing at school,but my guess is that he concentrates his rage on James because he also got Lili,not that anything ever happened between them (due to his arrogance with pure blood)but I%26#039;m so sure he had a deep crush on her and was devastated once she married James,thats another reason to detest Harry,the result of that union.
Reply:that%26#039;s a good theory! but i think Severus only liked Lily because she saved him in the pensieve. not really the feeling they love each other.
Reply:I don%26#039;t think that there was a romance between them, but maybe he might have had feelings for her. I think if James had a crush on Lily that he would have made it too hard for her to have started a relationship with Snape.





As for the %26quot;Mudblood%26quot; name calling...sometimes when we are hurt and angry we lash out out the people we trust to forgive us. I think Lily admired Snape%26#039;s intelligence, and I think that a teenage boy who gets teased all the time couldn%26#039;t help but to have a crush on a beautiful girl who admired him.
