I'm going into tenth grade and I recently found out my current class rank. My class rank is 42 out of 163. My average GPA is 89.4. This is a B+ average in my school system. I have block sheduling and so I have four more semesters to bring it up. How much of a chance do I have to make into the top 20% of my class by the end of my junior year? My school gives out scholarships to the top 20%.

Right now, I have one female betta and I'm trying to find the right aquarium for her. I need something on the smaller side (no more than 6 gallons) and I'd prefer to buy an aquarium kit since I'm not very knowledgeable yet.

I've looked at the Eclipse System 3 and also System 6 and I like both, but neither include a heater. I realize I could just buy one separately, but is it possible to put it in since they already include the hood, specifically for that tank?

Also, is the flow rate for each tank suitable for bettas (3 gallon=35 GPH and 6 gallon=75 GPH)? I know they don't like a lot of water movement. Eventually I think I will add a few more fish (depending on which size I get) but right now my concern is that it is good for my betta.

If you have any other suggestions I would love to hear them =)

alright i think we can all agree that with lower reps but heavier weights can help bulk up muscle. but with that bulk muscle does that gain you a lot of strength or is most of it just show? Id prefer stronger toned muscles over bulky but if i could have both that would be great. any suggestions/workouts

I have been dating a German man long-distance for 2 yrs and we see each other very frequently, in Germany, the US, and we travel very often. He is now moving to the US to be with me and we have talked about marriage. Amazing man and the one I love.

However, he has a 5-yr-old child from an ex-girlfriend who got pregnant against his wishes. To him, this child is an accident. He pays child support and plays with his child but he says when we start our own family, we will be the real family he cares for.

This is incredibly difficult for me because I know it is not his mistake that he has this child, it's because of a crazy Ex...but I don't want the child to visit the US often (which he is OK with) and I don't want my future children to meet him. I wish that our children would be his only children. The child lives with the Ex and the father sees him every few weeks. Am I being wrong and selfish here? Or is it normal to react like this in this situation?

Hi R & S'ers, I'm putting out a call for prayers/kind thoughts/whatever it is you do when someone is in need.

On my way home from work, I came across a man laying partially in the street. My first thought was that he was passed out drunk, but then I saw the bicycle on the ground beside him and the man walking towards him from a car parked a couple hundred feet in front of him. The bicyclist had just been hit by this car, and the man was not moving at all. I looked in my rearview mirror and saw blood on the front of the car.

I have no idea how badly he was injured, or honestly even if he's alive. If you pray, please do so for this man. If you don't pray, please just hope for him that he has no serious injuries and recovers well.

Salaam, and thank you.

Hi all. So theres a guy.. lets call him "John". We have hung out before, and before i know it, he asks me out. we both knew we liked eachother. But the thing is, i cant have a bf right now. My parents are overprotective and i would never be able to see him. its the gods honest truth. he seemed really broken up. he told me he has "never felt this way before" and im "the only real thing" hes had. but i just cant be in a relationship right now. In the future we could, and i said that. so fast forward to the past few weeks. he now talks to me about the girls who like him, and how he is going to "ask out" a girl. so im thinking "UM WHAT?!"
but instead i go "oh yea?" John: "ya..so is there anyone you like?anyone you want to go out with?" and of course,i say "maybe..we'll see" John: "ya theres going to be lots of 'game' for me next year". im @ a loss for words. John: "ttyl bye". now, he is hanging out with sketchy girls. jealousy ploy? or does he like still likeme?srry 4 lack of info.no room

Okay.. I'm 15...and I think I may have made a huge mistake. Please dont lecture me on anything..cause I know, I know...

But..I think I may be pregnant..Today I took 2 pregnancy tests..one didn't really work and the second one was negitive..
But I thought that may be because I was supposed to get my period today. I've experianced mild back pain, hiccups, headaches, cramping, a little weight gain, and slight food cravings..like...I have no cravings for fast food...and I'm so hungry...yet nothing looks good... I've started to feel nauseous every now and again..but it only lasts a few seconds...my boobs are sooooo sore I can barely stand them to be touched..and they're slightly swollen..

What do you thinkk? &&What should I do?

I myself have signed both pro-choice and pro-life petitions, so I'm pro-choice but not to the extreme level.

My fiance's mother passed away last week from colin cancer, she didn't have a will & his step dad is telling him that he isn't intitled to ANY of his mother's esstate. My ? to all is... whats the low down on probate? We have a lawyer. But we want to know what are some things we need to know before all of this gets blown up in court. All we know about his mom is that she had...a car in her name, she owned half of the home, and half of her huspands truck. We know that she had Life Insuance, & a retirement plan. My fiance's step dad is also telling us that he is going to get rid of his mom's car. Is this legal? Can he do any of this without even putting anything into probate? Is there anyone out there that has been in this same situation that might have some advice? The reason I am asking about all of this is because my fiance' has already lost one parent (his father) 2 years ago... He was left out of everything because of his stupid step mom. Please Help!
