Sorry for all you America-haters, but I would have to say the United States -- groundbreaking liberties, size and diversity, and almost unparalleled power and influence (rivalled only by the British Empire at its height). I would give Chinese civilization a close second just for being so large and long-lasting.

Other top scorers in my book would be Rome, France, Egypt, Aztecs, Japan, and Babylon (I'm probably forgetting someone important, though).

Today I went to the pet shop to buy some new toys and treats for my three female rats. I also went in the back to coo at the new babies. However, there was a tiny cage tucked away at the side with two adolescent female rats in it. The sign said they'd been there a long time...I asked the girl at the counter and she said they were 3 months old, 2 and a half of which had been spent in that cage that was barely bigger than a shoebox. No toys, no nestbox, just sawdust and a bowl of dry kibble. They have two weeks before they're sold on for experimentation.

I have a rat cage 5'5" high that already houses my three grown-up girls. Females are easily integrated with each other. The cage can be divided into two living quarters until the new pair are quarantined and introduced. The only additional expense will be two more spoons of kibble a night.

But my mum will go stark raving rabid mental.

What should I do?

theres this girl whom I have known for a long time. Then one day, she kisses me and she wanted to make out with me. We did, and the next day, she says she doesn't want to start anything serious with me. I don't know if she wants to have a fling or whatever, because she sends me all kinds of signs, and all this started back in December. What does it mean? Should I do anything?

In several weeks, I'll be giving a 50 minute presentation on insects. The audience will be a high school bio class. Essentially, I'll be going over the general characteristics of all insects, their classification, along with honing in on several species in particular. Could anyone give me some really great websites on insects, along with links to video clips for ants (a really great 3-4 minute ant video)? Thanks.

BTW, it'll be in PowerPoint format.

I was never married to my childs father. I have not been with him in 2 years. I am now trying to go work in Japan and take my 3 year old daughter (who lives with me). Her father says I cant do that because he doesnt want her to leave. Can he stop me? If We are not married dont I have full custody of the child unless proven otherwise? He just recently(in January) started paying a child support ( a measly $189.00) because he doesnt have a job. Does that give him any right? His name is also on the birth certificate. I also tried to explain to him that I would get like 10 weeks of vacation and I would bring her back to visit, but he is trying to give me a hard time. This is the opportunity of my life , I have a BFA Degree and I cannot find a decent job here. He has nothing (no degree, no house, no job) and he is 11 years older than me and trying to stop me from doing whats best for me and my child. Some one help!! What can I do??
