My friend is going to China in about a week for 2 months and I'd like to keep up with what time it is where he is compared to where I am. He is going to be in Beijing. I've seen a website before, but I can't remember what it was.

when our American children-of all races--especially inner city kids--go to schools that are delapidated and in need of money? If they really want to help the quality of thei races' education, wouldn't it make better sense to spend those 42 million--Oprah or 12 million-Russell Simmons-on balck kids in the US?
It's kind of if I sent 42 million to Sweden because my ethnic grandparents are Swedish, isn't it? Please explain?

Hi. I'm 15 and a sophomore in high school. I've never thought of myself as intelligent but of course, I wish I was. I live in a very affluent community in Westchester where everyone is expected to be in honors or AP classes and an 89 is considered a bad grade. Most of my friends are in honors classes while I'm stuck in average and one almost sub-average class. Let me assure you. I'm no ignorant. Its just that if the material isn't presented in a certain way, I don't understand it. I also have poor social skills. When i meet new people, i stumble on words and get very nervous and very awkward. All in all, I'm just an average joe. I consider high 80s to be good grades. I am not gifted in any academic. The only thing that I seem to have is a little creativity. It's mediocre. I speak French and Portuguese fluently and I'm not even in honors French at school. Look. Even this whole question description is choppy and robotic. What do you think?

HEY! OK so I want to send a letter to someone at my church (someone who works there). How would I write out the "to" part of the envelope? Would I just put the person's name the line above where the name of the church/address starts? Or do I need to write like c/o something?
Or does the c/o come after the name of the church?

gatherings like todays 32 seconds of silence. I don't mean to sound like an *** but todays 32 seconds of silence where they release a balloon every second was pretty lame. Yeah the balloon represents a soul leaving earth to a better place, but i wonder what its gonna represent when an animal is choking to death with that same white balloon... time to move on.

Any time I have a major paper or assignmnet due I always find myself cleaning my room, kitchen, living room...etc.
Like this week I had tons of work to complete for my biology class and I found myself anxious to clean...the only problem was that my room was already extremely clean so I ended up cleaning underneath my bed!
Do you do this too or am I the only one?????
