Is there a variety of bell pepper that stays green when ripe or do they all go on to red, yellow orange etc.
So just to be clear, there is no such thing as a ripe green pepper?

the green peppers are unripe peppers, that if left to ripen will turn colors you mentioned.

Basically what I want to know is that who regulates this amount? What if the government of a particular country simply decides it will print some more money and use it, who will stop them and how will they be caught?

The individual country issuing the money polices itself. That is why some currencies are considered better than others, because they have a strong monetary policy so that people who do business in that money are confident in it. Countries like The US, UK, the European Union, etc have strong Central Banks that monitor how much money needs to be in circulation. Money is not flooded into the market to devalue everybody's wages and savings.

Other countries have poor financial control of their money making policy, and as a result have horrible problems with their money supply. A typical example is Ecuador. They are famous for having populist Presidents and corrupt politicians who when they would need money to spend on what they want so they simply ordered more money printed. Inflation in 1999 reached 2000% and economically destroyed the country. They desperately switched their currency from the home made Sucre to USA Dollars, which is the legal currency now.

Since then, their economy is stable, but politicians complain about only being able to spend what revenures they have. Other countries who recently have had financial crisis due to spending and monetary mismanagment include Brazil and Argentina.

Assuming I work full-time, I was wondering how much money I’ll need to make. I’m thinking about moving the North Island, maybe Auckland or Wellington. How much money will I need to make to survive?

If you work fulltime, the minimum wage should be enough provided you don’t have high standards when it comes to living- you can rent a room with in a shared house for as low as 100 dollars per week in Auckland. If you’re careful with money, you can get by with around 650 a week, including food, accomodation, etc. Hope that helped.

I usually tip the customary 15% at semi-gourmet restaurants like Applebee’s, Chili’s, Red Lobster and Longhorn Steakhouse and 10% for pick up.

However, do you tip for pick-up orders at Chinese restaurants or Pizza Hut? How about at Starbucks, Dunkin Donuts, or Sonic?

10% depending on the service. if i have crappy service where i have to ask for more napkins when eating ribs or cant find them half the time they mess up all the orders at the table needless to say your not getting a big tip.

I left a styrofoam container of ground turkey (still sealed in the container from the supermarket) overnight in my shopping bag. It wasn’t sitting on the counter, if that makes any difference. After discovering it was still out about 8 hours after I bought it, I immediately put it in the freezer. Does anyone know for sure if this would still be safe to eat? I have been looking online for tips, but can’t find anything definitive. I hate to throw it out, but I will if it’s too risky to eat.

If it wasn’t on the counter where was it?

If I am selling a house for $35,000 and the buyer is getting a loan for $10,000 more ($45,000), which number should the agent commission fee be based off of? the $35k or $50k?

It may sound silly, but what regulation would I find this information? When I go back to the agent, I will need to site a good source. Saying I got it off "yahoo answers" doesn't sound that good.
The commission is 6%, I am asking what the 6 % is based off, it seems the sale price.

The real estate agent gets the commission off the price of the house, not the size of the loan. If the buyer had a substantial amount of cash on hand to use as a down payment and borrowed $10,000 less than the price of the house I assure you the Real Estate agent would ask for the commission on the price of the house not the size of the loan. They can't have it both ways.

I’m pretty fed up with this crap. Some people in my family frequently use racism as an excuse and play the race card.

As for gangs, I came across this gang video on YT and is was disturbing. Youths making racial remarks, death threats, all that.

What are your opinions on racism and gangs?

I think they are both stupid.
I think racism is pointless and I wish thugs would just kill each other and or go on some island and stop harming innocent people. That’s my honest opinion.

I don’t think the two are directly related though…
I don’t hear this as an excuse much. I hear bad parenting, bad company, need of attention but not racism….

And gangs doesn’t always equal inner city kids…..just saying………..
