1. Hawaii time is 4 hours behind Houston. Therefore it would be 9:30 am Hawaii time when you fly out. Therefore if you arrive at 7:08 am, you must have had to overnight somewhere and the trip lasted 21 hours and 38 minutes. 2. LA is 3 hours behind NY so you flew out at 5 pm LA time and if you arrive at 9:53 pm, the flight took 4 hours and 53 minutes. 3. DC and Boston are in the same time zone so the flight took 1 hour and 4 minutes. Memphis is 1 hour behnd New York so if you depart 7:20 CST, then that is 8:20 EST and the arrival time would be 12:15 pm. DC is 3 hours ahead of Portland so if you fly out at 11:05 am EST, that is 8:05 am, PST and an 8 hour 35 minute flight gets you into Portland at 4:40 pm.

The type of aircraft you fly on will not determine how much turbulence you will experience. A lot will depend on how the weather is between LAX and Memphis. If there are a lot of storms or cloud cover, you will experience more turbulence than if you fly on a clear day with no clouds. The A319 is a decent airplane. I have flown the A320 which is just a little bit bigger than the A319 multiple times.
2 :
the turbulence has nothing to do with the jet. The weather is what affects whether there will be much turbulence. LAX to Memphis was very smooth for me two weeks ago. best flight for this route are on NorthWest Airlines. Non-Stop!!!

most likely!
2 :
prepare for it! thundershowers are often accompanied by lightning, and there are strict FAA guidelines that must be followed when lightning strikes are in the area. for instance, when lightning strikes just a few miles away, the entire ramp & tarmac have to shut down. that means no baggage handlers to load the plane, to guide the aircraft to the gate, to service the lavatories, to load the snacks and drinks, etc. they are required to STOP WORK and get indoors. what's that mean? DELAY!

The things I want to carry on, are they ok
The things I want to carry on, are they ok?
I'm going on a flight soon from Memphis to Washington, DC. I'm only going to spend 3 nights there. I'm not taking a whole lot just for the 3 nights... I'm taking some changes of clothes, tooth brush, tooth paste and my cell phone and maybe a portable cd player with my headphones. All this is going in my back pack... I want to carry this on the plane with me... Should I have any problems with those simple things?

It sounds ok, but if you're worried, check w/ the TSA website to be sure. They have a list of prohibited items.
2 :
All of these items should be fine. Just make sure the toothpaste is travel size. The same would hold true with shampoo. You should be able to find all of this information by going to your airlines website.
3 :
The toothpaste (and any other liquids or gels) needs to be in container that holds 3 oz or less, so you'd need to get a travel sized tube of toothpaste. Other than that it should be fine. You can find a full list of permitted and prohibited items here: http://www.tsa.gov/travelers/airtravel/prohibited/permitted-prohibited-items.shtm
4 :
your stuff looks ok, but you will checked many times. Ship as many items as possible and keep asd less items as possible with you.
5 :
Make sure you put ALL gels/liquids/pastes/creams inside a sealed plastic bag (like Hefty). I would wear flip-flops and go without a belt if possible (no pocket change); this will help you go through security faster and with less hassle.
6 :
Well, dude, I suggest that you leave the toothpaste at home and buy a small tube when you get to Washington. There are drug stores and supermarkets aplenty and you can easily get to them and spend your 69 cents. The TSA will confiscate toothpaste if it is not new and less than 3 ounces and presented in a clear, 1 quart size, plastic bag. Just downright easier to leave it at home and buy a new one when you get to DC.

Is it best to book a flight asap or wait til two weeks in advance when it comes to price
Is it best to book a flight asap or wait til two weeks in advance when it comes to price?
I want the cheapest price possible and I hear 2 weeks before is a good bet. I'm going to Los Angeles from Memphis.

The longer in advance you buy the cheaper it becomes. For instance, (in AUD) I traveled from Sydney to Perth, booked at last minute with Qantas for $200 return. In the same instance, 4 weeks prior to traveling, I only paid $180 return. It pays off to book beforehand by as long as possible!

Los Angeles, CA (LAX) to Memphis, TN (MEM) well here is a price quote for a flight 2 weeks from today http://farecast.live.com/flightSearch.do?t=r&vo1=Los+Angeles%2C+CA+%28LAX%29+-+Los+Angeles+International+Airport&o=LAX&ve1=Memphis%2C+TN+%28MEM%29+-+Memphis+International+Airport&e=MEM&d1=03%2F04%2F2009&r1=03%2F18%2F2009&p=1&b=COACH and here is a quote 6 months from now http://farecast.live.com/flightSearch.do?t=r&vo1=Los+Angeles%2C+CA+%28LAX%29+-+Los+Angeles+International+Airport&o=LAX&ve1=Memphis%2C+TN+%28MEM%29+-+Memphis+International+Airport&e=MEM&d1=08%2F19%2F2009&r1=09%2F09%2F2009&p=1&b=COACH looks like you would save $150.00 in this example if you wait until 2 weeks before but remember its a gamble and you have to be flexible on times and non stop vs 1 stop I prefer to spend about $100.00 more round trip for non stop on cross country flights its worth it to me. if you do a non stop then from your house to your final destination (hotel, friends home, whereever) is about 8 to 9 hrs travel time. Most people don't remember that you have to be at the airport one to one and half hours before your flight takes off. then cross country flights are 5-6 hrs non stop. then get from the airport to where you are going in MEM is about hour. It adds up quick. now if you throw in a layover in some other state thats a leeast 2 hours more of travel time. You pay $100 or less to get rid of 2hr layover out and back you just saved 4 hours of your life traveling and you can do something else with the time. Like eating something other than airport food. So anyways the website i use has price pretiction software give you an educated guess if the fare is going to go up or down in the next seven days. I booked a trip to Cabo San Lucas using this website last month and I had been watch the fares for 6 mos they started at 550.00 round trip and last month I found a fare for 251.00 I saved 300.00 bucks times 2 people 600.00 total savings. So put in your travel dates and register on the website an they will e mail you the price update everyday. Another website if you have flexible travel dates is www.hotwire.com you can do a flexible date search and it will show you the cheapest days to travel and the dates. they dont show you the airlines or the flight itiniery until you buy the tickets so that kinda stinks Good luck
