A subordinate recently submitted a letter to me for approval containing the sentence, "this insurance plan is administrated by XYC Insurance Company." I questioned her use of "administrated," asking that she substitute the word "administered." She told me she thought I was wrong and referred me to MerriamWebster.com. Although the word "administrated" appears there as an inflected form of the word "administered," I told her that still doesn't mean it's grammatically correct in the sentence she wrote. Should I give her a mea culpa, or was I right?

I need this translation for a tattoo as you can imagine I am going to get several opinions. But instead of telling you what i want translated im just going to give you what I have already and see if it is what an "expert" told me it was.

'fortuna est in manibus nullis praeter tuas'

In your own words, define "validity" and "accuracy". What is the difference?

could a kind soul please end my frustration, with a truthful yet dignified translation of this;

**** is bijzonder mooi, slim en grappig - zij is de reden dat ik op besta, op Myspaces althans! Ik wen haar een hele goede dag en ik hoop ik 'rover' n paar weekjes te zien als ik door het land reis! Nu eens zien of ze listig genoeg is om dit tekstje vertaald te krijen door, want deze taal verstaat ze niet...

I am going out of my mind and have to be out of the door in 15 mins...
PLEASE!!! (do you want to see me beg???)...

Do I capitalize "masters"?

For example, should it be:

"My Masters is a two-year program." or "My masters is a two year program." ???

And is there a comma anywhere in masters as it's used in the above sentences?
