I have implemented the command side of DDD using the domain model and repositories, but how do I implement the query side?

Do I create an entirely new domain model for the UI, and where is this kept in the project structure...in the domain layer, the UI layer, etc?

Also, what do I use as my querying mechanism, do I create new repositories specifically for the UI domain objects, something other than repositories, or something else?

During many, sometimes inundating, debugging sessions using DDD, I stumble upon loops. And I keep pressing next to get passed it, and if there are many iterations, I just set a break point right after it, and press "continue." Is there any other way to go passed loops? Thanks >>> More
