A man lives in the penthouse of an apartment building.
Everyday he comes home, he says hello to the dooorman & proceeds to the elevator.
Once in the elevator he pushes the 7th floor. When he reachs the 7th floor he gets out & proceeds to the stairs & walks the remaining floors.
The next morning on his way out he gets in the elevator from his penthouse & pushes the ground floor button, says good morning to the doorman & he's on his way.
Comes home that evening & does the same thing. Pushes the 7th floor button, gets out & proceeds to use the stairs for the remaining floors.
The next evening he comes home & its been raining. He says hello to the doorman as he always does & proceeds to the elevator.
However he doesn't take the stairs for the remaining floors.
WHY????

"He had one of those rare smiles with a quality of eternal reassurance in it, that you may come across four or five times in life. It faced, or seemed to face, the whole external world for an instant and then concentrated on you with an irresistible prejudice in your favor. It understood you just as far as you wanted to be understood, believed in you as you would like to believe in yourself".

(If you know from where this quote comes, I do NOT want to know what that person meant, I want to know YOUR intake on it) Thanx :)

I'm absolutely terrified of public speaking. I'm usually the very "timid" and quiet girl, so giving presentations in high school was very difficult for me. As soon as I thought that phase was over, I realized that I had to make numerous presentations in college (this is my first year of college). The presentation I am mostly fearing is in my Psychology 101 class. Our professor requires us to participate in a debate in class. Sounds fine? It's not for me! I have over 200 people in my class! How can I overcome this constant, consumming fear? It's very anxiety-producing and it's giving me a great deal of stress. Any tips or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. :)

I'm currently at a community college in Illinois and was planning to go to the University of Illinois at Chicago next fall. If I get a 4.0 am I likely to be accepted, along with the minimum amount of credit hours? I think it's 24 when applying and 36 when transferring? Is that correct?

I'll feed all of your curiosity. I was doing homework over the summer for a Chemistry AP class and a person I didn't even know wanted the homework to copy. Being the sucker I am I made a copy and gave it to him. So what is a person to do? How about...turn in the copy I gave him with my name scribbled out. Anyways apart from the drug investigation that should be going on I get a 0 on the homework, ouch but not crippling, and I get an account of "academic dishonesty" on my record.

How big of an effect does this have on college appliances? Please let me know why you think your answer is correct. I would appreciate this, thanks.

Lives of quiet desperation are led by men.


That is the passive voice. I need to know what the active voice sentence would be. I know that it starts off with 'Men lead"
Thanks!

Our Concert Choir is going on tour to San Diego, CA this year and we need some fresh ideas for raising funds (it looks like it will cost $975 per student). We will be touring April of 2008 but we need to start making payments now.

Fundraising we already have lined up:
~ Entertainment books (we get $6 per book we sell)
~ Radio Jazz Hour ($5 per ticket)
~ Silent Movie Night ($5 per ticket)
~ Val-o-grams (buy a singing Valentine for your sweetheart)
~ Candles (traditional but less so than candy)

Anyone have more ideas or know of sites where ideas can be found?

I'm at Northwood University in West Palm Beach, FL and it seems like everyone stays up until 4 AM partying and yelling and going in each others rooms all night. My roommate tends to leave the door open and people come in and go through my stuff and the other roommate is from Bulgaria and gets calls at 5AM on, and I am getting no sleep and I can't study worth crap. Is this normal for other colleges? I feel like I'm the only one that doesnt get trashed or high and I get put down for it. I don't even know where I could transfer if it came to that, I'm from 18 hours away in Delaware and I loathe all of the local schools up there for "atmosphere" or "location", etc.
