Studied Bach Biomed Sci and honours and been working as a Research Assistant (RA) in reproductive science field and have been asked by boss if wanted to do a phd. There is a perfect project available and have to give him an answer soon.
I like being an RA bc job is flexible, dont have to work weekends,do what supervisor asks.
Why I dont want to do a phd:more work(long hrs, working weekends) and wont be paid for it(will get less than 1/2 salary than what i get now),need to be passionate about the research(i mean i like science but not so passionate about it), need to b mentally focused to do it (which i dont think i am), and dont think i want to be a post doc or lecturer after i finish (i cant see myself in those positions).
What are the job opportunities like after doing a Phd(apart from being a postdoc or lecturer?Is it harder to get certain jobs?I heard phds may be overqualified.
What other career opportunities are there in the biomed field apart from doing phd?

We've been married for 6 mos. 2nd marriage for both. He moved into my house. We knew going in that I made more money than him. I paid all the wedding expenses. Although he's tried, put forth his best effort- he's been through three jobs and none of those worked out. He has a college degree, a good resume. Finally, he found a job, it pays 30k and he's been there for six weeks. It seems as though this one will pan out. So, he's able to give me some money for the first time. I've let him borrow a total of 2K, he's paid back only 600. We talked, escalated into arguing- fighting now for a month. He says that he has to pay off his credit cards. He says that he's giving me all he can. I don't believe that to be true. He says I don't need the money anyway. I'm comfortable but unless he pays some of the household expenses, I feel like he's taking advantage of me. I'm going to hold him to paying 100 weekly. He insists I'm obsessed about $, gives me a hard time.

Why is it when woman congregate in a group for an extended amount of time that thier periods tend to synchronize to eachother?..... but the better question is how does it happen? Does all the other womans menstrual cycles in line with one particular womans cycle ( like the more dominate cycle ) or do all the womans period merge into a gradual common middle sync point?

Okay at the very beginning of my abs work out I drink a powerade. But this time I didn't have any ice so I put moth balls in my powerade. Well enough about the drink. When I was doing the abs work out my stomach started to hurt like hell. The man on the workout said are you feeling the burn. I was like hell yeah. And after the workout my stomach was buring even more. You think I over done my workout people?

i posted a question yesterday about atheists being "black and white" thinkers. i have to apologize and admit how ignorant that was. i was just frustrated with a few on here who never see the "gray areas." i know you're not all like that, many of you are educated, thoughtful, compassionate people.

i'm not fat...even though i used to be. i'm getting better with my weight. but i've always wondered why people waste their time laughing their as*ses off about that kind of nonesense. it's just that if you're extra skinny like a toothpick then people will mock you to death about it like as if that's all they have to live for.
*??* thanks who can ANSWER this question!!

My Daughter's birthday is in Feburary so the school tells me she can't start Pre-k unless she is 4 by Sept. 1 , she will lose a year...how can I avoid that? I heard that if they go to private shool until a certain grade the state has no choice but to let them in at whatever age. Can someone explain to me how this works?

Specifically I am looking for ideas that tackle the areas that religion is still an authority on, such as the purpose of life or how to treat your fellow man. Or ideas about how to deal with new technologies that are sure to emerge, like cloning, stem cell research artificial intelligence, etc

Yesteryear the PCs were going from
1.9ghz to 2.0-2.4-2.6-3.0-3.4ghz.. and seemed in my eyes the speeds were climbing quick. Even in Laptops, my mate had one at 2.8ghz..[P4]...Nowdays.. i got a laptop at 1.6ghz..and the desktops are at like 2.6ghz or near there...
They seem to have slowed the speeds down and more so gone for the Cores instead, Duel core, Quad cores....etc...
Is a duel core really any better ??? r is higher speeds Better for us??
I keep getting told XP or even Vista is still programed for a Single core PC, and not quite got the goods for a Duel core, if that makes any scence to you guys..
( i know im into Tek and PC Specs, tho not to into the Really Technicals of it all :) ..)
I thought back 2yrs that todays PC would be like 5.6ghz...

cheers..
