I want to be an Ob/gyn. How hard is it to really become one?
Of course it won't be easy but everyone makes pre-med and med school sound impossible.

Any advice is appreciated!

I went to college over 10 years ago, I am not sure what would tansfer over to another state, but I have a debt of $5000 so they wont release my transcript. Should I wait to enroll and focus on paying the $5000, or enroll in school and just start over?

Hi, I am making a castle. What is the difference between machicolations and murder holes?
I believe they both were openings were arrows, rocks and hot oil could be dropped. Machicolations were above the gate doors but where do murder holes go??
Thank you.

Okay .. please don't say feminism, or abuse or abortion or anything typical like that. It would be really easy to just pick one of those obvious topics and right a research paper about. I'm trying to figure out something that is not as common and that you don't hear about all the time, but is still interesting and I will be able to find enough information on it to write a 10 page paper. I'm really stumped and have been rackin my brain and trying to look something up for weeks. Does anyone have any good ideas about what I could pick to do my paper on that my professor will be impressed with and the other students will not be bored to death when I present it?

What does this statement mean? How would you explain it to someone .... I don't get some of the vocab in it?

1. “The white man… unreservedly committed to the cause of liberating the black man in American society rather than integrating the black man into society.”

2. “He contended that if the leaders of the established civil rights organizations persisted, the social struggle would end in the bloodshed because he was certain the white man would never concede full integration.”
He believed that the theories of passive resistance used by Ghandi and Martin Luther King were exhausted and advocated civil and equal rights by any means necessary to accomplish equality.

I still don't get how he was different from MLK and Ghandi?

I.e. 'Earth is full, go home'
or
'You! Off my planet!'
or
'Too many freaks, not enough circuses'

Or something short and funny.

Our landlord has asked us to move so a family member can use the home. We have 3 pets whom are like our children. Finding affordable pet friendly housing is difficult. We have limited income as my better half has had a hard time finding regular work. He started a new job last week, his first pay check will be in a week. The lordlord says she wants us out by 6/15. Housing with pets is like $300.00 a month more than were paying now plus there's the regular deposit, the first month,pet deposit,etc. We have been just getting by here. We make too much money for Section 8 housing in our area (family of 2 $22,700 per year) Are there any groups out there that help with housing till you can get on your feet? Our credit isn't good either so we can't look into buying at this time either. Any ideas would be great to hear. We worry everyday that we will get a notice to vacate before 6/15 since we donot have a lease. Thanks so much!

straight As in every subject; he is in first grade and has 160+ AR points (Accelerated reader), etc... He is very advanced in math.
I am going to homeschool because his teacher sits him in front of the television for about 45 minutes a day as he has completed his work early.--This has been a source of contention between the public school and myself for awhile. They only teach 3 core subjects that are covered on the state exams--math, reading, and spelling. English is placed on a rotating schedule with gym and is taught every other day. Art, music, history, and science are not taught at all!
Placing him in a private school is not really an option. I live in a rural area, and I would spend at least 2 hours a day with him in commute time.
Also, socialization is not really a problem, as he is involved in the martial arts, belongs to a community based basketball league, and participates in a myriad of other activities.
Curriculum with advanced math????
