I am a South African teacher (40 yrs old) living and working in the UK for 8 months now. How frustrating to see that British teachers are told exactly how to present their lessons. What is the point of 4 years training? Surely one's creativity is being stifled and we teachers are but mere 'puppets on a string', not to mention all the disciplining issues one has on a daily basis. I am now considering leaving the profession. Are there teachers out there who feel the same way I do? Is there anyone who has left teaching to do something else successfully? Or is putting up with all of the above worth it for our lovley, long holidays? I desperately need some wise counsel from my fellow colleagues.

Looking for an unsecured, very low interest rate loan for personnel currently in programs that will lead to their commissioning as military officers. (Specifically NROTC)

So far, I've found only one loan:
$25,000 @ 2% with USAA
Need to be withing 18 mos. of commissioning
Payment deferred until 3 mos. after commissioning.

I called Navy FCU (NFCU) and eventually got transferred to the Anapolis branch, where they said the only loan available was for already-commissioned officers, within 1 year of graduation.

I have twin boys. They both just turned 20 years old. One of them goes to the university as well as works full time. He has turned into a dependable and responsible adult. It is his choice to work full time as well as go to school.

My other son does not work and refuses to go to school. Both my husband and I work so no one is home during the day. I suspect my son that is at home spends most of the day sleeping and playing video games. He will help out with chores around the house but only if I ask him to do so. My son that works pays him $20 a week to clean his room. I have tried cutting him off financially----just short of kicking him out on the street. I would prefer not to do that. However, since he receives $20 a week from his brother, that doesn’t seem to bother him. Also, the son that works keeps him supplied in Pepsi. He just seems too content and too happy for someone that is unemployed.

Okay...I have a female rommate. I have a dog and she has a dog. I get home from work at 5pm and she won't get home until 6pm. I HATE WALKING HER DOG!! I have been walking it to be nice for about 1 year now. I feel bad because she does not take her dog for walks EVER. I mean, ever in like 2 times in one year. So, instead of letting her out back in our super small yard, I just take her dog with me. She also works on Saturday, so I really have no other choices but to walk her dog. Plus, her dog has had an issue w/ shitting in the house...so, I'd like to keep my roommate from beating her as well.
I enjoy that she would let my dog out back, or feed him if ever need be(heck, even watch him if I'm out of town visa/versa though) So, we both need each other.
However, should I tell her to start walking her own darn dog after work? I could let it out back while I walk mine. I feel like she'll get pissed and I could lose the benifit of her taking care of my dog when need be. HELP ME!

My first question is -- when is it? I know it's televised on ESPN this year.

Second -- New Jersey prospect Rick Porcello is expected to go No. 2 to KC. But Peter Gammons says he could fall all the way to the Yanks due to the Boras factor. Are teams really this afraid that they won't sign a player?

Three -- Is baseball like football, where, if a player signs with an agent, he loses his amateur eligibility? I read Porcello signed a letter of intent for UNC and he will go there if he can't sign with a team. But, see above question.

I was going through past biology papers and came across a few questions i found difficult. I'd appreciate any help...
1)Suggest why treating diabetics with insulin made by genetically engineered bacteria may be better than with insulin made by pigs/cattle.
2) How do decomposers break down carbon-containing compounds from dead remains of plants?
3) Why isn't starch digested in the stomach?
