When I was younger, I used to get beat up a lot by my older brother who is a few years older than me. I got socked hard (with a closed fist), kicked hard, hair pulled hard, plenty of verbal put downs, and even had a fairly heavy metal object thrown at and hit me in the head once. I got bad things blown into my eyes, tripped, laughed at... He would lead lots of kids in school to tease and make fun of me. He would get really angry and punch holes in the wall. No permanent physical damage, but I think that there was some emotionally at least.

I know that people claim abuse by adults, but is this "abuse" by a minor? People who knew him them (he's nicer now) seem to brush it off as "boys will be boys." Was I "abused" or did I just get the bad end of my brother's anger?

He gave me his phone number and said i can call him anytime. Im unsure about calling him since i dont know him and i dont wanna come across as being "desprate". He is attractive and all but i dont wanna play a fool cause i dont know him.

i'm new at my job, so here comes this guy (pretty handsome) who stops by for some small talk, we find out we speak the same second language so there's a bit of commonplace. Anyhow, one day he comes over and whilst were having what i thought was a 'normal' conversation he tells me he has a girlfriend, might have kids, not sure he wants to get married b/c he doesn't think its in mans nature to be with one person. (Ok, now i know thats out of place but when its a gorgeous hunk telling u this u forget you're at work and start spewing advice) anyway, i'm married so i tell him not to get married until he's sure,he also asked my age!, i don't think i was flirting b/c i maintained my 'professional' voice and serious expression. When he came back from vacation, he stopped by my desk and asked if i missed him? then said he was just kidding. Am I giving him the wrong impression? Sure i think he's attractive,maybe my friendliness was mistaken for something else. Now he stops talking to me?

I am 22 with about $2200 in credit card debt with no real secure source of good income. I just barely get by without having to pay this bill, but I think I could afford to make low monthly payments. I keep getting phone calls from these collection firms saying that they have “purchased” my debt and now I owe them and not the original bank which issued me the credit card. The collectors have even called my parents house telling them that I had a financial emergency that needed to be taken care of and told my family that they were my bank as to get my cell number. I know this is a common practice but I am stuck dealing with people who are demanding things from me. I know I got myself into this and I need to get myself out, but could I start working with my bank instead of these harassing debt collectors. It’s been about a year since I last made a payment, is it to late to ask my bank if I can start paying them? Also, how should I negotiate my debt with these people?

I need a project that will contain two primary sources and a secondry source. The project must centre on a specific title, eg, a war is too big a topic too cover as is the lifetime of a person while a specific battle of the effects of a person around one event in history being perfect. I am intrested in ancient Greece, Persia and others civilisations around this time period. I had intended doing the battle of Thermopylae as my subject but no primary sources exist, the histories of Herodotus were written twenty odd years after the battle. Does anyone have any ideas?
