I would like to buy travel vouchers to give as a gift. They would be for travel originating in the UK – most likely to European destinations.
Ideally they could be redeamed online and could be spent on both air Travel and hotels.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks.
I want to get the vouchers from a UK based company or website.

You can buy airline vouchers directly from the airline – most offer them on their website. Virgin Atlantic offers "Virgin Vouchers" in denominations of £5, £10, £20 and £50. They’re sent out in a stylish wallet along with a list of all the places where they can be used.

Here’s the website w/ more info and where the vouchers can be used: http://www.thevirginvoucher.co.uk/info/where-can-i-spend-my-vouchers,28,AR.html

I am really interested in technological advancements and would really like a book to read that mentions about future technologies or current technologies.
Therefore I ask if you have read any good books about technology.
I’ve heard a bit about Nicholas Negroprontes book about future technologies but it was written near 15 years ago so it mightn’t be so relevant.
If not a particular book, how did you get into technology?
Thanks in Advance!

Rule number one:

Predations about future technology tend to be wrong. http://www.pixelmatic.com.au/2000/

Magazines like Popular Science are a good place to start.

There are a number a "Futurologists" who think about such things. Perhaps you could start with:

Im writing an essay comparing and contrasting the social, ethnic, and economic condition in the southern colonies versus those in the other colonies. I mostly need the social and ethnic but i will take what you give me.

Well, for stArts the Southern colonies were est. for economic gain & not for religious freedom, so it tended to be more "dog eat dog" than the north.

I’m 15 and I have to do work experience for school. I’m thinking of using this to try and get a part-time job. I’m thinking something like retail, or similar like a supermarket, but I just want to know what stores usually accept work experience. I have to do it for a week and work a full day. Any ideas??? I don’t want to do fast Food.

I know for a fact that the Body Shop does, as I have a friend who did her work experience there. But almost any store should accept work experience, after all they get someone to do their work for free. Just decide which stores you like and would like to work in, and go in and ask the manager if they do work experience.

But honestly, you arent guaranteed a job after and you’d be better off doing work experience in the field you want to end up in.

I am planning a trip to Sausalito in a few days… does anyone know if Gas Powered Motorized Scooters are allowed in the Golden Gate National Recreation Area.

If so, does anyone know where I can rent a scooter in Sausalito?… What about does anyone know where I can rent a Tandem Bike in Sausalito?

Although there’s no state law against using them on streets (riders must be at least 16 years old and wear helmets), the National Park Service does not allow motorized scooters on any of its off-road trails. Non-motorized bikes should pose no problem.

There’s really only a few bike shops in Sausalito:

A Bicycle Odyssey
1417 Bridgeway
Sausalito, CA 94965
Phone: 415-332-3050

Mike’s Bikes of Sausalito
1 Gate 6 Rd
Sausalito, CA 94965
(415) 332-3200

For motor scooters, you’ll have to go to into the city. There are plenty of rental companies operating out of Fisherman’s Wharf. And dealers include:

San Francisco Moto & Scooter
275 8th St
San Francisco, CA 94103
(415) 437-9430

Motojava
498 9th St
San Francisco, CA 94103
(415) 255-9527

I need to get 30 hours of community service for a program at school for college bound students. Those community service hours need to be related with the category of my major (which is performing Arts). Does community theater count?

or maybe you can sing at church
