Battle of Wits

John and Mary were playing at Patball, an outdoor game of their own invention. In skill, there was nothing to choose between them.
They were playing to 21 points.
Mary had the sun in her face. "Look here, John," she said, "with the sun where it is now you're scoring about 3 points to my one, I ought to have a handicap."
"Okay," John said. "Or why not change over at half time? Say when I've scored ten points."
"Right," said Mary. She considered. "After all, John, you did win the toss. Let's change over when you've scored 12."
"A generous offer," said John. "I'll accept it, all the same?"
What should be the result of the game?

It seems to me that so far the more recent zombie movies present zombies as highly mobile and able to jump off buildings to the ground. What do you think zombies should be? Fast and high dexterity or slow and lumbering?

I got my bachelor's degree about 10 years ago, and I'm now interested in going to grad school for political science. My undergrad GPA is far from stellar (sub 3.0), but I have strong work experience in the poltical world (communications director for a congressional campaign and several years working with a Lt. Governor).

So with a poor gpa and limited relationships with my undergrad professors (it was 10 years ago, very few will remember me), how should I go about applying for grad school?

I know the top schools are out of the question. But is there a school out there that might give me a shot?

I cant find any reference to it as being a valid diagnosis ( Dx ). My daughter ( 8 ) supposedly has this . My other children are on the Autism Spectrum , I'm wondering if this Dx is a veiled way of hinting that she has a form of Autism without coming out and saying it. The agency that tested her would have to provide her services if she fell on the Autism Spectrum but now has refused to because she has " Social Cognitive Disorder " . Any help is appreciated.
