I'm from NZ but currently living in the UK. It's been good but my time here is about finished. I'm not ready to settle down yet in NZ, so I was just wondering if anyone had any ideas for further travel. Maybe teaching english, or working at a summer camp....things like this
Cheers

This is the problem.
Today a boy is twice as old as he was 4 years ago.

Let b = the boy's age today

b = 2 (b - 4 years)
b = 2b - 8 years
b = 8 years

My question is how did 2b-8 become 8?? Shouldn't it have been figured

b = 2b - 8 (move the b to the other side)
2b - b = -8
b = -8


I know I'm wrong and he can't be a negative 8 yrs old but in the equation, isn't negative 8 the right answer and not 8?

Immortal love so willingly shared,
It is all about the way you have cared,
For each tear I shed before you,
You bring me ten smiles, by the things you do.

Your selflessness, protection and devotion,
Mixed together in a beautiful concoction
Of your love, which each day I drink,
Thus grows stronger each and every link

Between father and child,
Nursed with care mild,
This eternal, unbreakable chain,
For linked we are in pleasure and pain.

And all I can give you in return,
Is a promise that I shall never turn
My back on you, whatever the situation be,
I will be there when you need me

(its 4 father's day)

Get this please...NO ONE supports Madeleine's parents in leaving their babies alone.
Its not even debatable. What they did was inexcusable & i'm aghast to think how they chose to do it.
So whats the blah blah blah about???
People truly concerned about Madeleine should support them in whatever way they believe is best to get THEIR baby back
and channel their minds positively towards creating awareneness for other missing children.
The McCanns will be charged with child neglect for sure & are facing (worse for them their Madeleine is facing)
the worst possible punishment of not even knowing whether their baby is alive & if she is,
the horrors she is facing. You want to hound them for leaving the babies, do it...if it makes you
feel better & proves a point to other irresponsible parents. But passing slick comments on what they do/don't & how/why & when they met the Pope &
analysing their every single gesture, expresssion & twisting their comments does not make for an objective
debate but just a cruel witchhunt. I fail to understand how such comments will help Madeleine.
As much as their actions baffle me, i will not judge them, as am certain they are being advised by experts
who know more about such situations than any of our wiseguys on YA.

Statements about "standing up for Madeleine & not her parents" are so pointless.
We all stand up for Madeleine & other missing children. Who wouldn't???
Our hearts ache for her & for all the other little ones lost.
As clever (& entertaining) as some of the observations of the guilty parents may seem, have any of our wiseguys
on YA even stopped to think about the damage they may be causing??? Such comments suggest that
Madeleine's parents are heartless & frivoulous & don't deserve her. Is that what we want the abductor / potential abductors
to hear??? C'mon guys, pause awhile & think about the hurt you can cause before hitting that submit button...

A.allowing South Carolina to secede from Union
B.depositing federal funds in the National Bank
C.refusing to be bound by Supreme Court decisions
D.vetoing the Force Act of 1833

Some people said it's C.But in my textbook, the author uses lots of paragraphs to talk about the veto rights to thge congress to gain more presidential power.So, I became confused~

It kind of beats me, because other newspapers and numerous web sites often assign such ratings, either in star or number form. (The objective of the question also applies to another New York journal, the Village Voice.)

Oh wait, he's a Repub so he'll get the "other" side of fair and balanced. Kissy kissy.

Is it not funny how Repubs bash Hollywood, then they run for office and then nothing but tongue. See Reagan and now Thompson.

I've decided that the best way to get one is to scroll through old questions and look for ones over a day old that has no answers. If it's a good question, I'll answer it if it has fewer than five answers.

It's worked so far, two of those questions have rewarded me already.

Yes, I have made many mistakes. because of that, my world will not be perfect. However, I have done also much good and therefore I can cope with the evil recompense of my mistakes.
in fact, my life is constant overcoming of my failures and mistakes.
I will never be perfect. I will never overcome all my mistakes. but I will always try and my life will always have meaning because I am trying to be better.
I will always have to carry have load on a hill. But I will not complain and my life will always be worthwhile.

Hurry up, I just can't wait
I gotta do it now I can't be late
I know I'm not afraid I gotta get out the door
If I don't do it now I won't get anymore
You try to criticize my drive
If I lose I don't feel paralyzed
It's not the game it's how you play
And if I fall I get up again now

Chorus:

I get up again, over and over
I get up again, over and over
I get up again, over and over
I get up again, over and over
