Check these out!!! I laughed my head off when my husband showed me these in his Wired Magazine. :rotfl: http://www.giantmicrobes.com/ :rotfl:

i'm taking an immunology class and having a hard time finding out the answer to a homework question. i have scoured my textbook and the internet, and i'm not sure if my answer is correct. can anyone help me? here's the question: why wouldn't you ...

I'm rushing to study for 4 tests this week (one Tuesday, two Wednesday, one Thursday). One of the ones on Wednesday is a huge exam, too. I'm feeling overwhelmed and crabby right now. My birthday is later this week, and I went to my mom's today for...

I have a cleaning lady come every other week. It helps me keep my sanity. DH and the kids aren't messy, but none of us wants to do the dreaded chores like bathrooms, vacuuming and dusting.

I feel old, too. I'll be 40 next month. There are two other women in my class who are older than me, but compared to all the 20-somethings, I feel like a dinosaur! Not much that can be done about it, but I just wanted to tell you that I know how y...

I've had a laptop as my primary computer for several years now. I love it. I don't take it places very often, but I like that I can if I need to. Right now I'm sitting in bed with it - can't do that with a desktop. :chuckle

Congrats, and best of luck on the practical. I know when I took A&P, the lab portion always pulled up my overall grade! I'm amazed you are doing this with 7 kids. I'm struggling with 2. Hats off to you!

Hang in there. I know exactly how you feel.

Fun2Care - don't give up hope yet! Jess - All my fingers are crossed for you too! It makes it hard to type that way. :)

I have been watching your ticker, too. GOOD LUCK!!!

I'm sorry you're having a rough time. Have you sat down and made out a list detailing the pros and cons of quitting vs. staying? Also list the reasons you feel that you want to quit. :icon_hug:

I took nutrition as an independent study class and found it to be pretty easy. Like dawn said, it's an ideal class to take online because it's straightforward.

I suggest you plan out your schedule - put all your important dates into a calendar and figure out when you will have time to do everything. Online classes are so helpful though, because at least you don't have to deal with commuting to them. Just ...

The first one is a chemical property. If you light alcohol on fire, a chemical reaction will occur (burning), which changes the alcohol into something else (heat, smoke, etc.). The second one is a physical property. An inch cube of lead is heavier ...

I agree that is a really heavy load. You are gone from the house all day and all evening 4 days a week, plus another day? Plus homework and studying. That could make anyone weary. Is there any way you could take one of those classes another term ...

Hi there! I also live in Portland. None of these schools have waiting lists, so the average age means only that the average student's age is 24. It has nothing to do with how long it took to get in. PCC uses a lottery system, so your chances are as g...

By the way, anybody read the book "Stiff?" It's all about the curious world of human cadavers. Very interesting reading! You can find it in the paperback bestsellers section at Borders.

We used a cat - one cat per table of 4 students, and used the same cats for all 3 quarters of A&P. I would have preferred a human cadaver, but my school did not offer that.
