I am currently a junior in college as an English major. Throughout my whole life, english teachers have harped me to publish my writings as they think I have the potential to succeed. Everyone else I know thinks after college I should make a career out of creative writing. Should I? I just think it's very risky and I might end up flat on my face. I've published things in newspapers and won writing contests, but is this enough?? I recently read an article which said that a man basically copied a novel by a notable Victorian author and sent it to publishers, only to be denied numerous times! That shows just how demanding publishers are.. Should I take the plunge, or settle for a career as a professor or working for a publishing company?? Thanks in advance!

My husband & I were discussing this the other night. We don't understand how people have time to cheat on their spouses. We both work full time, have a kid to spend time with, do a couple of volunteer things a few times a month, always have a social engagement on any given weekend, go out of town maybe every month or so to see parents, etc. and just the daily stuff that needs to get done around the house. How do people find the time??

Do I need to file CA state tax - here is my situation:
- I took some Early IRA distribution
- I was out of USA for the whole year, so not stayed in CA for that year.
- Have filed Federal taxes.
- Prior to that I was living in CA and now back to CA
- I'm US permanent resident

CA tax instructions say that you may have to file CA taxes even if you have not stayed in CA for that year if there is an income from CA source. Does the IRA distribution will be considered income from CA source?

He never had a father or mother... he never came into this world the way every other human being except EVE came... ADAM and EVE are more fantastic than any other human regarding their creation don't you agree... they had no mother and father everyone else did... even Jesus was born through birth and called out son and father Adam had no father ... did we all forget about Adam and Eve our parents? OUR TRUE MOTHER AND FATHER! Are they not more fantastic than those who you worship today besides the Lord of course.

I asked this question in the fitness section but maybe I will get more help in this section.Ok well I have the dancing twins DVD, and I have been using it and I am seeing some really good results. I have lost a lot of weight and I do have a more toned shaply body as the DVD said I would. But I still have my problem area which is my inner thighs. They have gone down, but not as much as my stomach and arms. Any suggestion? Thanks

I've asked a few questions on this topic, but I'm sounding like a broken record. I'm 21 finishing last yr of college and going military as an Enlisted man. I'm a very motivated person which comes from the inside and I also got the smarts. Physically I have been working out for the past 4 yrs just for this 6 X's a week. Army is out of the ?, USMC blew me away with what they were all about, so I have been leaning towards them. But the thing is I can't settle for anything but the best therefore I want to do Recon. But lately the Navy has all been calling and telling me they would offer a SEAL contract. What would you do? The NAVY tells me I should do theres because the training is that much better/longer. But the way I see it is whether or not Recon school is shorter, I am very much attracted to the USMC and the thought of if I somehow would fail BUD/s I couldn't see myself on a NAVY ship. I need a gun in hand and doing work on the ground. What would you do/recommend?


Thanks
