How do you solve a problem like Maria?

Q. Seriously. Like what is up with that. They sang this whole song an dance movie about it, an from wat I remember of dat movie they don't even tell you, how to solve the problem like maria.

Was Maria even in the movie???

Stupid long movie from wat i remember but i used to have a poster of it on my wall lol

A. The nuns solved the problem by sending Maria away from the convent to be the governess to the Von Trapp children.
Yes, Maria was in the movie.
She was, in fact, the main character.

How do you solve a problem like Maria?
Q. I just met a girl named Maria. What should I do?

A. How do you solve a problem like Maria?
How do you catch a cloud and pin it down?
How do you find a word that means Maria?
A flibbertijibbet! A will-o'-the wisp! A clown!

Many a thing you know you'd like to tell her
Many a thing she ought to understand
But how do you make her stay
And listen to all you say
How do you keep a wave upon the sand

Oh, how do you solve a problem like Maria?
How do you hold a moonbeam in your hand?

When I'm with her I'm confused
Out of focus and bemused
And I never know exactly where I am
Unpredictable as weather
She's as flighty as a feather
She's a darling! She's a demon! She's a lamb!

How would this change Maria Cristina' status?
Q. Assume that a direct descendant of Maria Cristina, daughter of Victoria Eugenie of Spain, has just been found to have had hemophilia. How would this change Maria Cristina' status

A. I honestly don't see how Maria Cristina's descendant being hemophiliac would affect her status one way or another.

Hemophilia was a trait of a number of royal families, notably among the descendants of Queen Victoria. There was so much inbreeding among royalty that it's small wonder that genetic problems such as this arose.

Why does everyone think Maria Sharapova is pretty?
Q. Maria Kirilenko is way prettier and a cutie even though she hasn't got as much skill as Sharapova. I respect Sharapova's skills its just that she isn't as pretty as the media makes her out to be.

A. Many scientists are now researching that and many people are wondering exactly the same thing...it's a mystery of nature really.

Will Maria de Villota's accident make it harder for women like me to have a chance of making it in Formula One?
Q. Maria de Villota's accident was tragic and you can argue that it could have happened to anybody, but will the fact that she is a woman make it harder for females like myself to have a chance of making it in Formula One? I've aspired to compete in motorsport and hopefully, one day, F1 for a long time, well before I commenced by transition. Now as a woman, this is a bitter pill for the future chances of females in F1.

A. No, this accident (if proved to be technical rather than driver related) could have happened to a man as well. Freak accidents happen.

However, letting people with poor racing records into F1 as marketing tools does far more damage to their social, sexual or ethnic groups than accidents like this ever could. Until Kobayashi, Japanese drivers were always considered to be a bit of a joke, mainly because so many of them were promoted above their talent level for marketing reasons. Indian drivers are going to take a while to recover their collective reputation after Karthikeyan. Drivers, whatever their nationality or physiology, should be in F1 on the merit of being one of the best drivers on the planet. De Villota shouldn't have been anywhere near an F1 car on the basis of her "talent", she was bumped up the order by people who wanted a woman in F1 to promote their team. Harsh? Not really. If she was any use at all then Marussia would have had her in the race car instead of Pic - but that was taking things a step too far for even them.
