If you are a minor say 17, can your parents sign you up to join the military without your consent? Just basically sign some papers and off you go into the U.S. army? Any articles talking about this would be great too.

Is there anything wrong with optimism. Is there anything wrong with believing that there is more to your life then just one short time on Earth? Hope brightens people's lives and yet you don't want it?

I mean, think of the benefits; all those crazy Muslims would no longer be able to procreate, neither will those wacko Christians who protest outside abortion clinics and no more of those pesky Mormons banging on doors trying to sell their ridiculous beliefs. It would be a beautiful world with rainbows and fluffy bunnies jumping happily around. The fears of global warming and pollution would dissipate because the human population would be much less and only decent, sane people would be contributing to the human gene pool. It truly would be a wonderful world, don’t you think?

Oh, and deciding who can and can’t procreate via a democratic process would take far too long and there would be too much emphasis on political correctness, so the decision should be made by just one person. I could be that person; I mean, I did have plans but I can put them on hold…

Acting has been something that I always wanted to do but I was wondering if 23 yrs old would be a little old to start off. I'm an 18 yrs old senior in highschool right now but I want to go to college so I have a degree to back me up in case I don't make it big in this Acting business(although I hope I do) I will be pursuing acting classes and oppurtunities before I graduate from college and move to LA when that time come. But I just wanted to know if any famous Actor started off at 23?

I've been going out with my boyfriend for 14 months, we lost our virginities to each other, and I know that he loves me so much. He is really shy, painfully nice, and I am his first relationship. But...I mean...guys don't do it for me. As in, you know, I'd rather be with a girl or no one at all. And not only that, but I'd be more comfortable with someone who is on my same wavelength: loud, outgoing, laid back and radical, rather than someone who speaks with two worded sentences. It KILLS me inside and I feel TERRIBLE just THINKING about breaking up with him, but I am the world's worst dumper. (Usually I try to get them to break up with me, but I know he wouldn't ever.)

Should I stay with him and see if this blows over (although, I know it will come back; I have gone through this three times before in our relationship), or take life as it comes?

I used to work as a dental assistant, but now that I'm 40 I don't want to do that type of work anymore. I worked a couple years ago in a manufacturer warehouse assembling electrical lighting ballasts, lights, etc. I was getting paid $13 per hr.
I stopped working there so that I could start my own cleaning company, but I really hated cleaning, and so a year later I applied back at that same lighting manufacturer, but now they hired me and are only paying me $10 per hour.

That is only $2 above minimum wage!!!

They expect hard work for only $10 per hour? I used to have fun jobs when I was young that paid mimimum wage, so how come now I can only find hard working jobs that require skills to only make $2 more than minimum wage?

I live in Washington State, and the cost of living here is outrageous!

Is it because all the Mexicans & Chinese are taking the jobs? Making it an "Employer's Market"? I'm pissed I have good skills but the pay is just above minimum wage!

hello. i'm a 6th grade teacher and the regular reading curriculum i am supposed to follow only has my kids reading one story in a basal reader per week.

i work in an inner city school without a library, so i'm working an extra job to earn money to buy some class sets of books from scholastic (where they are cheap and i can earn extra points towards free books).

i'm aiming to teach one novel per month (on average), and i'm wondering if these is a good timeline, or if i will need two months. i know it is different for everyone, but i would like to know what other teachers out there do.

also, do you have any great ideas for novels in the classroom that works for you? (i.e., using post-its, extended activities, etc.)

what works in your classroom?

More often than I want to admit. I have no excuse because I've got a holder for my waist but it turns easy in the holder and will drop easily in the toilet, sink, or an aquarium. When they are new-under warranty, dropped in water, will not be replaced, especially when it's used for business and been dropped in an aquarium before.

It's luxurious. It's beautiful. It was built during the time of the Iraqi Reconstruction, $572 million dollars worth of lush accommodations for the VIP's visiting Baghdad. Recently, however, a few mortar shells have damaged the building somewhat, but most of it is still intact. Isn't it great that the man who wants to whittle down Health Care for American Children could build the World's Biggest Embassy as a monument to his military accomplishments? How would you like to spend a relaxing weekend at this lavish establishment?
