Genecks

I would do the second choice; I agree with CharonY about the first choice. Gene activation is cool, but I'm more interested in the new stuff. I'm highly interested in all forms of genetics, but I would be more interested in partaking into something UW-Madison is currently doing. I've thought about going to UW-Madison for a university. I'm highly interested in the majority of programs it offers, but I'm more interested in the research being conducted. I see many publications from UW-Madison.

Should this be in biology? Despite the aeronautical and physical concepts, one would need a type of thrust. Such a thrust would come from an external device, unless one could manage to move the human body very quickly. In such a scenario, however, the human body would not get any where any time soon. Since planets are light-years away, the closest possible area to get to would most likely be a satellite of a planet or some rock somewhere, in some place in space. I would believe that a type of push, from an external device, would be very necessary.

Long ago, I was talking this type of human energy harvesting with someone. I had come to the idea that piezoelectricity could be used in sidewalks. Perhaps a certain type of flooring could be created that asorbs the impact and creates electricity from it. This energy could then be stored. Such flooring could be implemented in busy places such as New York's Wall Street or otherwise. I've always wondered if a weightlifting gym could be powered by people working out; in other words, people using the equipment and the energy given up would be routed to a energy storage device.

I'd buy the chemistry stuff. Chemicals and supplies usually increase in price, while video games drop in price. It would be a fun and wise investment

Here's mine: Hey baby, let's go to my place and make an F1 generation hybrid.

I wonder if most people, that wish to work in such a field, decide to work for NASA instead of a corporation.

Here's what I'm taking: - Introduction to Philosophy - Introduction to World Religions - Introduction to Social Psychology - 2nd year English (ENG-103) - Beginning Spanish Total Credits/Hours = 16 Typical FT load is 15 credits. My Comments: I really don't want to take Spanish; I like learning Japanese more than Spanish. With the probability of the national language law being passed, I don't know if taking Spanish is really worth anything these days. I rather take Japanese, but my institution does not offer it. Just one more of the reasons I dislike two-year colleges. I thought about transferring since I have a high G.P.A. and have a few courses on my transcript. I'm sticking around for math courses, but I can't take the ones I want because of the school's screwy registration system. Math courses can be taken in the summer; I'm doing this; but fall registration is before the summer semester starts. A lot of students find this registration system screwy; it disables people from having consequtive higher-level math courses. A person can take a course in the fall, but he or she needs a passing grade by the middle of the course to move onto the next level. However, registration is before the half of the class is over. Matter of fact, as stated, the registration for fall is before the summer course begins. This makes many students angry; I don't think the faculty care. My parents are bickering with me saying I can't take on 16 credits. I've taken Spanish before, and I'm studying all of the courses ahead of time. Studying for the second college year of English isn't as easy, but I believe since I'll have other things covered, then I'll have less of a mental load.

Dirty America may be right about the word history; I wouldn't know about its history. That sounds like a familiar definition and reference.

Well, I believe it was Webster that originally wanted the English in America to be called American English. This was after we booted out the British around 1812 and the Monroe Doctrine was created. For the English to be called American English would not be surprising; however, I believe they don't want this to become a large and controversial issue. This is why I was surprised to hear of it yesterday. For this to spring up all of a sudden without an leaks or other controversy is amazing. I haven't heard anything on CNN or otherwise. I would assume the implied English would be American English.

Something fun to do with free time is learn an instrument or pick up magic tricks.

When I was young I would have supported this nationalist tactic. However, I don't see English as the national language of America. The U.S. has never declared a national language, but it has been talked about. I'm thinking since this topic isn't a big issue, Bush will try to stab it the first chance he gets. Some people like to attack topics whenever people aren't talking about them; that way, laws and other things can get passed, while the republics back is turned. One of those "let's pass this into law before people start noticing what we are doing" things. What do all of you think?

http://myvag.net/elasticity/ I was pretty sure stretching was somewhat permanent when it came to child birth. From what I remember, the vagina is elastic and eventually condenses back. This condensation happens when a woman does not have sex for a long period of time. However, I'm not sure if the same can be said about child birth. I believe the vagina does have a slight added stretch after child birth. One might think "loose" women would be the women that have had many child births to obtain social security for their children. Women that have multiple children have said the pain of giving birth is less of a hassle for each consecutive child. The vagina canal would have streched each previous time; thus making the term "slip and slide."

I don't like giving advice any longer; it seems to anger others indirectly. I talk too much about myself, too. I don't think you should worry about people that have a 4.0 GPA and athletic super star abilities; the majority of these people are what some call "valedicktorians." The parents pick up the tab and pay for everything; this makes the life of the student a lot easier. Some people aren't as lucky, while others get all the help. I dislike people that have more money, support, and help than I do, and then I hate watching them making low grades. I'm anti-elitist, but I don't like watching resourceful people dumb down because they are too lazy to work hard. Dude, I live in the basement and eat tuna all the freakin' time. I don't have the best life, but I make the best grades. Many people around this world have it all, but they become weak and pathetic because they don't have to work hard for things. People slack off because their parents or guardians provide them with everything they have. Don't slack off; you need to learn to fight for yourself and your own success. I think you have to worry about yourself more than others. There is one thing I've learned about education and friends: friends get in the way of a good education. Unless all of your friends want to help your education, they will most likely hurt it. A lot of people in the world are leeches; they suck the blood out of someone while taking the nutrients that give that person life. Leeches target any person, and they don't care about who has power and who doesn't. What you need to start thinking about is who has power, and who doesn't. Who has the power to education you? Who doesn't have the power to educate you? Do your best to stay away from those that use improper English in colloquial speech. These people, unless giving good advice, are best ignored; they usually screw up the academic process of learning new words and using them properly. I'm not as lenient as Phi for All. Friends suck and get in the way. It's best to learn how to use people; learn who to use; and learn as much as you can from them and leave them. Continually gain academic knowledge and power. A person that ignore others, uses them, and goes forth with his or her own life can graduate early from high school and college. All the person has to do is ignore others, use them, and go forth with his or her own agenda. Simple as that. One could say I'm an antisocial psychopath, but I would say that's what makes me get good grades. People suck, and I won't let anyone else on this forum tell me otherwise. The people on this forum, however, are good people and I attribute them to my success. The people on this forum are educated in science. I come to this forum to learn. Most people around school talk of foolish things that get them no where. I've learned the majority of people in this world are idiots, and it's going to be like that for a long time. So, if you want to become successful and get good grades, then you're going to have to learn to ignore them, and listen to yourself. You've taken the first step by asking for help; that's a good thing. What are the next few steps to take? Looking at your GPA and thinking about what kind of grades you want to get from now on. I'm going to tell you something I learned recently in college. This thing really helped me get to where I am now. Many people live in the past, while others flow in the current. A person can't look into the past, and a person can't dream too much of the future. Don't dream of the future. Don't look into the past. Don't flow with the current. Prepare for the future; learn from the past; and work hard in the current. I'm sure you've made mistakes in the past. What you need to do is look at them and prepare; prepare so those events don't happen again. When you're given a homework assignment, you should do it. That's what working hard in the current is all about. You may dream of things in the distant future, but you're not going to get anywhere dreaming. Some people have asked me about where I want to go for a university. I tell them, "I'm more worried about getting the grades to go there first. I can't plan ahead, but I can prepare. It's not going to do me any good to say I'm going to go there." If you want to go to a university or other institution, then you'll need to concentrate on your grades right now. You talked about how your family and home life isn't the best. I'd give you pictures of my house, but it's a mess. Mice crawl in the sink, and they leave crap in all of the pots and pans. Ants crawl all over the bathroom floor, and the stench of urine is pungent. No one around my house cleans it. I stay inside my little basement, and I don't come out. I've lived with an alcoholic in the family for many years. My other family member picked up hard drugs. My parent almost died from cancer a while back. There's a child of my constantly depressed sister that lives in the house and always dirties it. There's a dog that craps all over the kitchen floor. How have I dealt with this? I ignore the house and my family. My family isn't going to help me, so I've decided to ignore their stupid asses. One could say I hate my family, but I learned to deal with them by ignoring them. I have to use them as if they are some type of economic tool. I'm not telling you to hate your family; you'll need to accept them, but learn to deal with them. I don't like living life this way. However, this seems to be the way life has been for me since I was young. I've been though a lot of emotional and physical pain. I'm not going to go into this on this, but I think you'll understand that lots of people have a shattered life. You'll have to learn to become stronger in your mind to fight off these things. What do I say for you? Ignore the family and get out of the house. Ignore them, but respect them. Something I highly avoid is bringing people down, even though I may be more intelligent and powerful than them. I like to act stupid around others; it makes people feel comfortable. Go to the library and learn to start making meals for yourself. Maybe you'll want to start going to a college library. Colleges often have many things that are resourch to scholarly people. They also have a microwave to cook meals made at home. You could spend time at the library. After you are done going to the library, you could go to your grandparents to sleep at their house. Some people don't have a problem sleeping at their house; people have a problem with someone living at their house. You'll have to talk to your grandparents about this, and you'll have to create a time schedule for everything. Now onto the 3.5 G.P.A. part of the discussion. I like to think of GPA's like this: 1 point per high school year. You have a 1.6 right now. I don't know if that's left over from your freshman year or the calculated GPA for this year, but I do know you will need to make straight A's from now on. It's high school; it can't be that hard. College is hard; high school is breezy. Procrastination you say.... Let me ask you something: Why do you want a 3.5 GPA? Why now? If you've been procrating all along, why have you decided to start making the grade? When I decided to make better grades, I had a motivation. I had a reason, drive, and want to go further academically than possible at the time. I still have this drive. What's your drive? Are you trying to get into a specific college or university? From what I understand, college like someone with at least a 2.0 GPA for admission. But you want a 3.5, and I don't know why. For what ever invisible reason this may be, I'm going to have to make some advice for it. Whatever you reason is, you'll have to keep that reason strong. If that reason is short them, then your drive will not last very long. The reason to struggle and keep going must be a definite one, and you must keep struggling to obtain a goal. This goal must be a long-term goal. Nothing is a dream until you make it a dream; dreams are things that are never obtained; goals, however, are things that can be obtained. You have to sum up the will power to obtain it. To make an A in all of your courses will be a complex thing to do. I don't see an A in any of the courses you have right now. I assume I'll have to give you the resources. First, you'll need dead accurate English usage skills. Mine in this post aren't the best, and I'm not going to proofread (or copyedit for those that are picky) this post. When you do a paper, you'll have to edit everything to perfection. The problem with secondary education is its inability provide knowledge that is useful to the student. If you're ever going to write a paper for someone, be it teacher or other, I want this to be the first thought to come through your mind: "Now in order to do his best a man of ordinary intelligence and education should be able to express himself correctly both in speaking and writing, that is, he should be able to convey his thoughts in an intelligent manner which the simplest can understand." - How to Speak and Write Correctly by Joseph Devlin This is the whole basis of college English. You don't have to use complex words, but you do have to make your audience understand the topic at hand. If you are truly serious about breaking through the GPA plateau you've recently come across, then you'll need to bring your drive and academic fight to the next level. You can't procrastinate anymore. You can't watch TV and slack around. You'll have to keep your eyes on the prize. You'll have to constantly struggle to study, learn, research, and become a better scholar. Becoming an intellectual requires reading. You can't procrastinate when it comes to reading. On my signature are a multiple books on reading and writing. Read ever sentence in each internet book. Ever wonder how to increase your reading speed? Read, read, and read more. The more you complex and elongated things you read, the more your reading speed and comprehension will increase. You'll have to learn to keep a dictionary close to your heart. Once you've enhanced your writing skills, then you may want to go over to this forum: http://writingforums.com/ Now you be may more curious about how to get an A in any class. There's an easy way to do this: go to the professor and ask. "How do I make an A in this course? What will I have to do? What things will I have to accomplish? What is the best way to do the assignments?" Atypical personalities go places. Teachers and professors like to see courage and interest from people. This is called the brownie point system. The brownie point system is where you show interest in a course subject and the will to succeed. Teachers sometimes act lenient on a person; other times, the teacher will be a bit more tough on you. More times than not, this atypical way of doing things works. I would also suggest you don't take any art or drama courses. Many artists do not think people should get a grade on an art assignment. This thing is controversial, but I don't like the idea of grading someone's art. The courses are very subjective. I've been through drama and the arts before. I can testity these courses are subjective, and a person could learn more from a local drama/art workshop. Art belongs in art schools. Like Harvard *sarcasm* You'll have to work hard on any assignment you do. You'll have to bring it to the teacher ahead of time and ask how he or she thinks of it. "What corrections could I make?" After understanding your writing and teacher, you'll have to understand the course. The course is the most important thing to understand. The book you are given that comes with the class will allow you to stay ahead of others. The book is one of the most important tools of the classroom for getting an A in the course. If you read the whole book ahead of time, understand the material, and can tell people about it, then you'll be more likely to get an A in a course. If you want to make all A's in your courses, there will be no room for procrastination. You'll need to be constantly reading, comprehending, working problems, and understanding the topic at hand. You may want to look on the Internet for forums that relate to your school work. I can't help you on Gym, but I can tell you most things in such fitness courses pertain to a type of "if you do everything as told, then you'll make the A." It's hard to make a good grade in Spanish because there aren't many people that like to conversate in it on forums. This would be a good chance to make use of those friends you have. If any speak spanish, you could always talk to them in Spanish. Most people have no problem with practicing their language skills with someone. sosmath.com is a good forum for math help. I don't use math forums anymore. I believe the lady who made purplemath.com is a moderator on that website. It's an excellent website for math help. I'd give more advice, but I'll wait.

Clowns.

You could always get an email provider that is new and not on the ISP block list.

Already there.

I was recently nominated to the national dean's list and I had to write down some professor/educator that inspired me. I'm going to put the first biology professor that inspired me. I don't think he inspired me intellectually, but he inspired me that a person can be and smart at the same. His knowledge on a subject was always there whenever I asked a question about biology. However, I'm suppose to use a prefix. Now, I called this guy up on his cell--about me choosing him--but he never called me back or shot me an email. I don't know if he has a doctorate's or some other type of degree. He may have a masters, but I don't know. What do you think I should use for a prefix? Should I use Mr.?

I always wondered if someone could rap about science in such a way.

Sticky this in education.

I don't understand why people need to buy books for AP tests. Is not an AP test like the examination of a comprehensive college class final? If so, then it's interesting to note that businesses are making a load of people that need some type of document to review their knowledge. I would assume the material covered in the class would suffice for passing the exam; would it not be enough?

I think it would be a good idea to break up the engineering section into a few subcategories: aeronautical, chemical, electrical, etc. I'd really like to see electrical as a sub-section, perhaps genetic engineering if people aren't too shakey about that. Some like playing around with bacteria and changing their genome; glow-in-the-dark bacteria are a new fad.

I noticed the regression; the regression is what made me quit my computer science major. A lot of stuff is simply repeated over and over again. I like flash a lot better than java. I've always liked flash because it seemed to be the cool and graphical way of the future. Today, people are noticing its capabilities for advertisement. They learned people will continually block gifs and other images, but swf is a bit more complex and annoying. Many programming languages and ways of the computer are put on hold, while some other guys says his stuff is better and everyone tries it out for the next few years. Things change, regress, and progress. These constant flucuations made me so annoyed that I decided to quit my computer major. No one can exactly choose on one type of programming language today; there is simply not one that can do all things, or so I think. Maybe there will be a universal language someday besides binary.

Psychology is a social science. I'm not asking you to use science to back up the idea of it. If there is a large amount of science detail, then I assume science would be of great importance. For what I know, science comes in the form of neuroscience and biology during most of psychology. I can't say there is or is not a lot of science in social psychology, but if there is, then please describe the scientific advancements and recognizable changes in social psychology. Here's a better question for those of you looking down here before up there! How has social psychology changed since the 1960's?

So from what many of you are saying, my question is invalid because men did not evolve from women; in other words, men and women came about at the exact same time.

I picked up a few social psychology books at my local college library and began to skim through them. I noticed many of them were made in the 1960s. One of the books I grabbed it a supposed introduction to social psychology, but it's dated about 1967 or so. I was wondering when a person can consider a certain psychology book dated. In other words, how many years until psychology and learnings are considered foolish and obsolete, a.k.a. not mainstream learnings. The reason I picked out some social psychology book is because I'm preparing for a class I'm taking in the fall. I can't get ahold of the book offered for the class anytime soon, so I've become dependent on a few books the library has. How has social psychology changed since the 1960's? What new or changed concepts have shaken people? I'm taking an introductory course; I'm looking for basic changes.
