In school we had maps above the blackboard that you could pull down when needed and then roll back up (like window shades). Tom Hanks also had them in the movie Sleepless in Seattle. Does anyone know where you could buy them?

Here's the deal, I'm a honors geometry student, but I'm averaging a C+. I understand completely what she's teaching us, I take good notes and do the reading. I get correct answers on the homework. But then when the test comes...I get C's or lower on that. I tried telling myself I can do it, I even study for a hour or more before the test. But during the test, everything goes downhill.

Any advice?

“When we see the sorrow that lies ahead of joy, we do not look beyond it, but rather into it, not realizing what is to come after our troubles, but observing our difficulties for the duration of the sadness. If we focus our attention more so after the anguish, then we come to appreciate and absorb that of which we once grieved. Therefore, if we grasp the message given to us, we will comprehend why we suffered so, and gain ourselves an understanding from it.”

I was assigned to write four letters to a "pen pal in the future" from the point of view of a person set in the 30s. I need a name of a town, and quickly (its late at night and they're all due tomorrow! Procrastination!) So yes, please, a town in rural Georgis that's been there since before the 30s. THANKS!

By the way, I'm a freshman. Isn't this a pathetic project?

"I loaned him the money." I frequently hear people on TV court shows say borrow for lend. What part of the US says it backwards like that? It's incorrect, isn't it?

hope someone can help me answer this problem:

Write two fuctions f(x) and g(x) for which (f*g)(x)=2x^2+11x-6. Tell how you determined f(x) and g(x).

That's the problem. The teacher didn't go over something like this and I have to put SOMETHING down.
