Somebody asked this in the pub and I did not have the words to put the answer concisely.

Still thinking about. I thought a second opinion was worth it.

I have a Bachelor's degree and I am interested in going to grad school and becoming a college professor. Somehow, however, I don't know what kind of education I would need! I would prefer to teach English or a related field. Should I get a Master's degree in English, or a Master's degree in some kind of an educatory field? I feel silly for not understanding this, perhaps someone can help me.

If some one calls you from jail and ask you to dial *72 and a number dont do it when you do this the caller would then forward your calls to a number and scam you.


They pick numbers Random

MIAMI - Jail inmates across Florida have been tapping into the residential phone lines of unsuspecting people to make long-distance calls, officials said.
The inmates make collect calls at random, then persuade the unwitting person on the line to press star-72 and the number to the pay phone at the jail. That forwards the victim's line to the jail phone and gives the inmate repeated access to the residential line to make calls - including long-distance calls.

The Miami-Dade County jail has been getting complaints from victims for about a year, spokeswoman Janelle Hall said. She didn't know the total number.

Some were scammed out of hundreds of dollars' worth of long-distance calls.
The jail added a warning to its collect call message that says dialing star-72 could make the person a victim of a scam. But victims don't pay attention, she said.
"The main thing to do is just don't accept the call," Hall said.

The scam also occurs at other jails, she said. (In the past year, there have been numerous reports of people in the Tampa Bay area being victimized by such a scam.)
Joan Church, of Williston in Levy County, said she received an unnerving call from Miami two weeks ago.


"The man told me there had been an accident involving two men and two women," Church said. "He said: "You need to call this number and ask for Dr. Allen."'
The anonymous caller told the 62-year-old retired widow to dial star-72, then call a phone number with a 305 area code.

Church said she has a son living in Homestead and thought she was dialing a hospital number.

Eventually, she called the phone company and learned she had activated call forwarding. She is still waiting for her phone bill to find out how many calls were made on her line.


State prisons have stopped similar scams by preventing inmates from unrestricted collect calling and three-way calling, said Debbie Buchanan, spokeswoman for the

I am considering home-schooling my 2 children. One is 4 & the youngest 1 year old. My daughter begins the new prep-year here in Australia in 2 weeks. She is only 4 & it is like full time school. It is voluntary until next year. My family may be moving next year as my husband is seriously considering leaving his current job to join the airforce. If we do this then we will be moving to another state for 4 months and then moving again for 1 year before moving again for 2 years and then moving again...... Is it better just to home-school, rather than move them in and out of schools? Even if we do not move- how will they get to learn social skills if they are home-schooled? Are there any play groups for children learning at home? Please help?
