I find it ridiculous and rather pathetic that my cousin actually thinks she is much more brilliant than other people because she has good grades. Her school does not even have a strong curriculum and I've seen her work, it's horrible. So do you believe that grades actually measure intelligence??

I am a senior and have been a straight A student my whole life, i have never gotten a B, had a 4.1 gpa last year. This year is more difficult because i chose to take 3 ap classes (calc, eng, and spanish). My parents are saying that they wont send me to the university i want to go to (SCU) unless i get A's in ALL of my classes. I have been working really hard but haven't done to well on quizzes/tests so far in calc and eng. My mom keeps asking me if my grades are good and i am lying and telling her they are. I am really scared bc i dont know how to tell her that i did bad on these things w/out saying they were hard and everyone failed (but that doesn't even work.) I am really frustrated bc i am working really hard but she thinks if im not getting A's im not working hard enough. What do i do? Should i tell her now, where i will get punished badly for not starting out the school year well. Or should i try to raise my grades to A's and hope she doesn't find out my current grades?

Okay, I'm writing a paragraph and I need to know if television shows have to be underlined or have quotation marks or if they should be left alone. I always mix up the punctuation for books, magazines, tv shows, and movies, so if someone could give me a site for all of those that would be great.
-Thanks!

Hi everybody. I have a little problem and I would be very glad to get a decent advice. I'm a freshman at a high school. I turned 15 this june, so i'm kind of ahead of a lot of my classmates and friends. Couple of days ago, an interesting idea striked my mind. I don't want to graduate when i'll be 19. I want to graduade just like everybody else. So, I thought grade skipping would be a good idea. I'm in two honors classes and I do pretty well. I have no problems with grades what so ever. But I don't know what shoul I do. I'm a little afraid to talk to my parents abot it, because they're very strict with everything that has to do with school and i'm afraid of their reaction... but at the same time i went to school kind of late. when i was 7. I don't know the reason. So, please somebody, can you help me? Thanks.

You’re either with us or with the terrorists:
Defining the term “terrorism”
The Monday morning rush hour was in full force, the subway trains rolling. For thousands of citizens, the relaxing weekend trips to the beach and the zoo were still in their minds. One individual had other thoughts on his mind. The weekend was spent making last preparations for a plan that will forever change the lives of him and the thousands of people standing right next to him. He was sweating bullets and clearing his throat constantly, yet, nobody was giving him suspicious looks. At last, a train came to a stop at the station he was residing at. He entered the train calmly, allowing others to enter ahead of him. When the train left the station, it was down to business. He reached into his pocket, where he kept the detonation device. Terrorism has been taking place in the world for centuries. Ever since the terrorist attacks on 9/11, the word terrorism has become a feared word. There isn’t a day that goes by that goes by where the word terrorism isn’t used by the main stream media. But, how is the word terrorism defined? The Oxford English Dictionary (1989) defines terrorism as “A policy intended to strike terror against whom it is adopted”. This paper will introduce to you three different types of terrorism: state, domestic and international by defining them and giving examples of each and with the information I will define terrorism in my own words.
Government Involvement
When a person usually thinks about terrorism, they think about a small group whose views are so rare and outrageous, that they use force and fear to become known or to become more powerful. But many times governments, including the United States, use violence against innocent people. P. Simpson (2002) defines state terrorism in his article “The war on terrorism: Its moral justification and limits” as “acts of violence used by governments and government forces against parts of their own people or against other peoples” (p. 11). Many governments do not believe that what they are doing is a form of terrorism. They use their power to invite or end wars by killing innocent civilians. If you were to look at World War II, you could see many forms of state terrorism.
World War II officially began after Nazi Germany invaded neighboring Poland on September 1, 1939. Two days later, on September 3, Britain declared war on Germany. “The London Blitz, 1940” (2001) describes that Adolf Hitler planned on a bombing campaign on the city of London to demoralize the British citizens and call for a surrender. The bombing on London began on September 7, 1940 and for 57 days they were constantly being bombarded. Over 177,000 citizens were placed in bomb shelters during the night to protect them from the bombardment. On May 11, 1941, all bombing on the British capital was ceased due to Germany’s new campaign on the eastern front against the Russians (para. 1-2). This act would be defined as an act of state terrorism because of the motives behind the bombing of London. Hitler wanted to demoralize the citizens of Britain. The campaign was not intended to take out military bases, equipment, etc. Though history defines the Axis powers of World War II as the “bad” side, a nation on the Allied powers also used state terrorism to end the war for good.
With the War in Europe already over, the United States could finally focus entirely on the Pacific, where the Japanese were putting up a good fight. President Harry Truman had to make a decision that would eventually end the war in the Pacific. He decided to drop an atomic bomb in Japan. According to “The atomic bombing of Hiroshima”, (n.d.) on August 6, 1945 at 8:15 a.m. an atomic bomb was dropped on the city of Hiroshima. Hiroshima had a population of 300,000 civilians and there were about 43,000 soldiers stationed in or around Hiroshima. 70,000 people were initially killed by the blast and within five years over 200,000 people died resulting from the explosion (para. 1-2, 6). This event right here is quite arguable on whether or not it is a form of state terrorism. We were engaged in a war with Japan at the time, so you could argue that it was an act of war. The thing is that there were 300,000 innocent citizens residing in Hiroshima. They did nothing wrong and didn’t deserve to be killed. When at war, you are fighting the opposite military, not the citizens living in the country you are at war with.

Can any body give me correct answer ?
