Why is it that we have days and nights..... If you feel days are for work and nights are for rest.. then why do we work night duties... in some places, we have work going on for 24 hours.. If you say so that people work in rotation, and if nights are made by nature for rest, then dont they deserve a nice sleep as per the rules of nature?

I would like to become fluent in Spanish somewhere down the road, but my main priority for right now is to learn enough Spanish to be able to communicate with my students' mono-lingual parents. Are there any good books/tapes/cd-roms/dvds/etc. that would provide kind of a quick fix? I can read Spanish pretty well, but cannot speak, write or understand spoken Spanish very well.

Greetings all!

I am applying to grad school (library science). I don't have any professors I feel comfortable using for my recommendations but I have been working at a library for over 4 years and would like to use my director, my supervisor, and an old supervisor as my references.

Do you think this will fly? My director and old supervisor are pretty well known and while I don't want to play on their celebrity I am hoping it will give me an edge.

Your thoughts?

I have a beautiful purple sparkly prom dress that comes right below the knee. This was worn by my neice to her homecoming. I bought it for $90.00. 4th is a black modest dress,butterfly sleeves, down to floor, silk material(worn for choir concert)bought $90.00. worn 4 times. They are sizes 13/14, 13, 14 and L. How much should I sell these dresses for on ebay? They are all in excellent condition. None of them have any stains or anything on them, they all look like i just bought them from the store. Even the Green silk one was just dry cleaned. What would you buy these dresses for? Thanks for any advice. I just have never sold anything on ebay and was wondering what the normal price was for prom dresses on ebay.
