I am dreaming to get into UChicago, Washington University in St. Louis, a good private school, or a lower-level Ivy League like Duke or a ivy-league equivalent. I currently have a GPA of around 3.75, play baseball, but I know that I need to get involved in more clubs, volunteer programs, etc. I'm planning on taking the PSAT next Wednesday and the ACT in December. I have taken a practice test already for the PSAT.

I go to a smaller high school that isn't likely to be considered a upper-tier secondary school, so I'm probably going to have to be in the top 2 or 3 in my class along with an ACT score of at least 29, right? Any help would greatly be appreciated. I plan on majoring in either business administration or economics and management.

I want to play a sport but I'm not good at most..?

So i'm in 8th grade and I want to play a sport. I'd kind of like to play basketball but I'm only really good at shooting not actually playing. Another problem with basketball is that all of the popular girls at my school live near me and play basketball and would be on my team. fun? doubtful... I'm nervous to try a sport because I'm just not good and everyone (not everyone, I know) who is still playing sports are already good and have played for a while. Any suggestions?

Why do people say Operation Iraqi Freedom is illegal? Didn't the US Congress authorize the use of force?

Bush didnt just send our soldiers to Iraq without asking for permission from Congress. He requested permission and he got it. Case closed. The War was and is legal.

Here is the proof.

is it fair to extend the UKs territory off the Falklands?

The UK wants to extent is territorial waters off the Falklands (almost double it in fact). The reason is simply oil. is it fair though? Does it matter - what are the Argentineans going to do about it: nothing, militarily anyway.

High school Theater?

Ok, so i am in the publicity crew for my school.
we are doing the play "Much ado about nothing"
they asked me to make the t-shirts for this play for all the people involved in the play.

i have to have the following on the t-shirt-
- Much ado about nothing
- 2007 or '07-08

the play is also part of our schools renaissance festival
so the t-shirt can say something about that.

and, i have an idea but im not sure it really makes sense:

front of t-shirt-

"MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING"
WE DID SOMETHING!

(graphic)

Back of T-shirt:

"O, What men dare do! What men may do! What men daily do, not knowing what they do!" [quote (is that a good quote?) ]

and then, under the quote:

cast:
(names of cast and who they play)

Crew:
(names of ppl. in crews.)

[should the names of the ppl. in the crew be on the t-shirt?]

help!!!

suggestions, anyone!!

My mil is a very nosy woman. I have caught her being nosy . When she comes to my house, she notices things that are not important. Even with my own children she sees things that I don't pick up right away. I am getting tired of her and her ways. How should I approach her about this?
