Which college has more marijuana usage: UCSC or Humboldt State?

I’m going to UCSC in the fall and my brother is going to Humboldt and I think that UCSC is more of a pot school than Humboldt, but he thinks otherwise. I’ve seen more lists that have UCSC ranked high for reefer madness with Humboldt nowhere to be found on the list. On the other hand, I’ve seen a couple lists where Humboldt is ranked way higher than UCSC. Does someone have a sure answer to this question?

Would you rather go to Tahiti/Bora Bora or Dubai?

My boyfriend and I are going on vacation for 9 days in September 2007. I want to go to Dubai because there is a gorgeous beach with really blue water, along with an indoor ski resort, city, nightlife, shopping, sand dunes and the latest and greatest architecture! My boyfriend wants to go to a deserted island like Bora Bora where there is BEAUTIFUL, CLEAR water, but I think we would get bored after 3-4 days and I would get island fever! Anyone been on any of these two? If not, have any of these places come to your mind?

What would you choose?

If none of these appeal to you, where would you go?

BTW, my boyfriend is originally from the UK and I am Vietnamese-American (born and raised in Texas). We both reside in Northern California just to give you a background of us. Also, we have never been to either of these places.

Thanks for any of your opinions and output in advance!

What do you think of this wedding ring for my *husband* (!! I'm so excited to say that!!)?

I found two that are similar, and I want to know which you like better.

http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?ref=sr_gallery_6&listing_id=19181478

The reason I like these rings so much is twofold – the metals they are made of (titanium and tungsten) are indestructable (especially tungsten), just like my love for him. Plus, he’s really active and would break/bend a gold ring. Second reason I like them is the woods they incorporate – redwood *responsibly harvested* is the oldest living thing on the earth – symbolizing longevity and permanence – ditto with the romantic meanings there. The ancient kauri wood is a similar thing – the wood has endured for 50,000 years…shows how endless my love for him is…

Do you like these? Do you agree with the sentiments/symbolism? Do you think he would like it?

I’m a total mushball…I know….:D

What is the difference between a redwood, a sequoia and a cedar? And yes, I know that a sequoia is a type of?

redwood, but how many types of redwoods are there and how do you tell them apart?
I guess what I am asking is when I look at a tree, how can I tell if it is a redwood, sequoia, or cedar as they all have red trunks
