Education & Reference - 11 September 2007

you go, you pay thousands (sometimes hundreds of thousands) and sometimes you cant even find a job. the books are incredibly expensive, as are the classes and fees, etc.....and the education is worthless as you work in a call center or mcdonalds somewhere.

I'm a virgin and I'm not and never will be a drinker. But it seems like that's all they do in dorms in order to have a good time. Would I still have fun if I gave it a shot?

The Poem:

WE wear the mask that grins and lies,
It hides our cheeks and shades our eyes,—
This debt we pay to human guile;
With torn and bleeding hearts we smile,
And mouth with myriad subtleties.

Why should the world be over-wise,
In counting all our tears and sighs?
Nay, let them only see us, while
We wear the mask.

We smile, but, O great Christ, our cries
To thee from tortured souls arise.
We sing, but oh the clay is vile
Beneath our feet, and long the mile;
But let the world dream otherwise,
We wear the mask!

Questions:

1) What is meant by "And mouth with myriad subtleties." i don't really understand it.

2) and when he says "We smile, but, O great Christ, our cries
To thee from tortured souls arise. " do you think he is make reference to Jesus because Jesus died in a very painful way?

Thank you.

I'm thinking about doing my science project (I'm in grade 9) about the different effects carbonated drinks have on different parts of our bodies. HONESTLY, does that sound interesting at all? Please give me all the suggestions you can think of.

do the merit badges have to be earned in your council or can you earn them elsewhere. My step son is enrolled in Boyscouts here in Ohio and working towards his 1st class so he can goto Philmont. Is he able to work on these merit badges in a different state when visiting his mother?

I'd like to become a social worker in the future but I'm not sure what to pick as my major. I know, it should be obvious but would taking sociology give me a better range of jobs?

One of the colleges I'm applying to offers a reduced tuition for Sociology but not Social Work and I have noticed that many others don't even offer Social Work!


What's the difference between the two? Which should I pick?

Ok, guys, I really need help here. My son will be in kindergarten next year. I am thinking of home schooling. He recently started a church pre-school 3 hours/3 days per wk. He really loves it and I must say it has really helped him. He has always been very shy are scared of any new situation. I understand alot of this will come as he gets older and more mature. (I also know kindergarten in public school will not be like this church pre-school 6 hours per wk!) I cannot find anything in my area as far as groups/co-ops. Everything is at least an hour away. (from what I can find anyway) I see how much pre-school has helped him and how much more confident he is. How can I continue to feed his curiosity for school and other kids, and get the social interaction while home schooling him? I really want to home school!

I missed the first few days of class, the notes I got were not helpful, and neither was the book -

Euclidean geometry: "the collection of propositions about figures which includes or from which can be deduced by those given by the mathematician Eucilid".
non-Euclidean geometry: "geometry in which the postulates are not the same as those in Euclidean geometry."

we've been using these terms before, but they weren't "defined" until page 40. further explanations please?
