GED for IN?

GED for IN?
I live in Indianapolis, Indiana. I am 15 years old and completely HATE highschool. I go to a school with about 6000 students. They are totally strict because a lot of bad things have happened there recently. The teachers dont know anything and yell at you. They say things that in elementary school were completely wrong. Its like theres nothing they can do wrong to the students. I got sick half way in my freshman year. Like deathly sick where they thought I had cancer. My own conselor parents doctor and teacher thought I had school phobia? seriously? what? but it was just that I had so much work to do in certain times and the teaches would complain. I couldnt do it. So going back this sophmore year I will have alot of freshman classes. Is it possible for me to get my GED being sophmore 15 in Indianapolis. My parents cant move and theres no other school. Im so stressin.

Sry the sad truth is you must wait til you reach the age of 16 to start GED classes and most programs make you wait unti you are 18 or your age group has graduated.... if its that bad and you physically are suffering from school you should really insist on continueing your education at home with a home-school program. The only problem is if you decide to go to college it will be very hard for you with out all the proper knowledge of your basics. And lets face it, cllege is the only way to make it in todays world if you dont want to live on welfare.

I want to launch a voluntary "Cleaning Our City" campaign. Where to start?

I want to launch a voluntary "Cleaning Our City" campaign. Where to start?
I'm going into high school next year, and I just read on Yahoo! that the almighty US is doing very poorly in keeping it's cities clean. I live in Indianapolis, Indiana. I want to start something where I can put flyers up in my school and urge kids to come and help clean up things like trash around the highways. I don't want to volunteer anywhere, because I want to start my own campaign. All I want is for me, and kids from my high school (Or if I get bigger than I anticipate..) other kids from other local schools can help to walk around the downtown city and highways of Indianapolis. I would have friends with trucks park near so we can put the trash bags and large trash like tires in the back. I am very proud to be from Indianapolis, and I would be even prouder to be here when it's cleaner. I think I'll talk to my high school counselor about it, and she'll/he'll tell me where to start. I want to know who to contact, I want the city to know we're out here wandering around cleaning. Should I write a letter or email or call? And who? Thanks so much for reading!!! I will really appreciate it if you help me!

I would start with the Marion County Department of Health- I only know of one person there - and it's an indirect contact so I have never met him: Bill Messick - he is part of Healthy Homes Resource Liaison Housing and Neighborhood Health. 317.221.3135. If he cannot get you started maybe he can put you in touch with someone who can. Good luck

You need to go to local city and tell them your plan they will help you its called community development plan

Want to move to California - need advice!

Want to move to California - need advice!
I am 22 years old, and a professional graphic designer and web developer. I live in Indianapolis, Indiana, and I will be completing my degree in graphic design soon. I nailed an extremely high-paying design job straight out of high school, but I don't feel like I belong in Indiana. I am attracted to the night life, big city, and affluence for design and a liberal way of thinking. I will probably save for 1-2 years, then plan on moving out to California. I was thinking San Diego or SF, LA, or some other metro. What are some things I should consider, anything I should look for in particular, and can I survive on a designers salary out there? I want to start a new life in California.

Just go. You already know you will be going. You can't find a place to live long-distance so budget for a hotel for 4 days. talk to other tenants before signing an apartment lease. They will tell you the good and the bad. Then start your new life. /


2
Before moving and giving up such a high paying job, come here for a 1-2 week vacation then if this is the place for you, make sure you have a job before coming back to live. California is very expensive especially so for a single person. Rent for a decent apartment in a low crime area is going to cost you approximately $1250-2500 per month. Can you survive on a designer's salary, that depends on how much you make (at your new job here) where you want to live and the food you want to buy. Crunch the numbers, count the cost first.

Parts of Indianapolis are very good; other parts are not so good. The suburbs around Indianapolis are generally good places to live, but some are expensive. Citizens Gas has a Winter Assistance fund for people who cannot pay their gas bill in the winter. There may also be state assistance (EAP) for energy bills for low income people Sometimes financial help is available from the township trustee. However, I would recommend that you find a place to live where you can stay within your budget after you find a job. Check CareerBuilder, Monster.com, SnagAJob, etc. web sites for information about jobs in Indianapolis.

Hi! I am currently living in Indianapolis. It is a very beautiful city. It is a city though, and not great for a family to grow in. Mostly because of the Indianapolis Public Schools. I moved to Indy from Columbus, Indiana. There are a million job openings there. It was ranked high (No. 10) on the best cities for a small family to live. It also is a very clean city! The schools are excellent. All of them! Elementary, Middle, and High schools are very advanced. It is 30-45 minutes south of Indy and about an hour north of Louisville. I cannot wait until my Fiance is finished with his degree so we could move back there and raise our baby! Hope this helps!

Should I live in Austin or Dallas?

Should I live in Austin or Dallas?
I have a new opportunity to take a job in TX. I now live in Indianapolis, IN and can choose between Austin and Dallas. My wife and I are 36 and have 2 kids in Jr high and 1 in elementary. We live a fairly active lifestyle and enjoy outdoor activities. We spend a fair amount of time biking, hiking, boating, camping, etc. We tend to be pretty social as well, so we'll definately be searching out local night-life activities. Having lived in Indiana my whole life, I would like to settle in a place that has some topographical diversity. We value education, so local school performance will likely drive our decision as well. Thanks!

Austin for sure! Austin is an amazing city with so much to do. It is a great place to raise a family. It is a very outdoorsy city with lake, bike paths, camping, etc. It is the live music capital of the world! I think Austin can't be beat.


2
I would say Dallas, because Austin has a lot of liberals, from what I've heard. I have not lived it Texas, but I lived in Oregon and Austin sounds like Portand, which is a liberal scumhole, in my opinion.

Dallas is much better. Austin is infested with Liberals

Austin definately, much better activities and "topographical diversity". Otherwise both are quite similar.

Austin is one of the coolest cities you will find. I've been to both and like it much better than Dallas. There are resources on the web to check on schools and varied other things. If you visit the two, I would be shocked if you did not find Austin the more interesting place for a home.

Austin! It's the live music capital of Texas. Plus, there is a lot of topographical diversity in the Hill Country. Lots of mountain biking, there's a cool lake in the middle of the city with restaurants on the shore and you can dock your boat and get out to eat, bike lanes on the city streets and you can also go hiking. Whole Foods Market was started in Austin and they have a huge store down there. Then there is Zilker park, Austin City Limits concerts, South by Southwest Music Fest, the list goes on! Dallas is flat and flatter. There are also too many conservatives.

Pre-med & Med School Questions?

Pre-med & Med School Questions?
I am currently a second semester freshman at IUPUI in Indianapolis, and my major is currently Biology. I am also setting myself up for a Chemistry degree, if I want to switch or even double. I plan on a transfer either to Indiana Univ. or to Ball State Univ. later on in 2009-10. But I am also open to any other schools. My goal is obviously Med School, and I am currently aiming to be an Anesthesiologist. I just had a few questions that I can't find answers to, and wanted some help: 1. Are the degrees I am going for going to help/hurt/ or don't really matter when I apply? 2. Does a degree from a non-traditional school like IUPUI hurt me on an application. 3. What type of volunteer or internship jobs should/can I do? 4. Practice MCATs, where can I take them, how can I study. I want to do better than my best basically. 5. Finally, where should I go for med school? As far as my career goal to what school has the best or most renowed program for that career path?

Honestly you can get into medical school with any degree, and in some cases, without even getting a degree. Each medical school has prerequisites to apply. Most require a year of general chemistry with lab, a year of physics with lab, a year of organic chemistry with lab, 1 or 2 years of biology with lab, some english, a year of math etc. Search for certain med schools and look at their requirements. Also, having a science degree doesn't make your chances of getting in that much higher, because they do want some diversity in degrees...but, a major in chemistry or biochemistry will give you a better background and make you more equipped for medical school classes. As for volunteering, anything and everything. Hospital hours are extremely important, also if you can, shadow a doctor. You should hope to have hundreds of volunteer hours and if you can work in a research lab, you should do that as well. As for practice MCATs, most universities have a pre-med club and these clubs often organize practice MCAT's. If not, you can buy study materials or practice tests online or at places like Barnes and Noble. As to med school, you should apply to as many med schools as you can because it seems that more and more people are getting rejected the first time they apply and they have to go back to get a masters and then apply again. So basically, go wherever you get in and if you get into more than one, look at factors like cost and how good their program and reputation is. Good luck

It will not work for you anyway. Public housing can not be used as student housing. You have to WORK to have low income. A job is required unless you are disabled and collecting social security. You can use student grants and student loans to pay for housing while in school.


2
In Maryland to live in income based rent you have to be employed. Basically they take your gross pay, and how many dependants you have and that will determine how much rent you pay. If you are single I believe it's 30% of your monthly income. You need to check into Sectuin 8 Housing.

God does love all his children but He hates their sin. And I am not at all confused about God's word on homosexuality. It's in the same sentence with thieves and murderers and it's an abomination in the sight of GOD.Your "pastor" (and there are many like him) may have all the degrees in the world but he's following Satan, not God. Your cult can believe what you want but sin is sin, no matter what you want to call it. And the wages of sin is death. I understand that word in the Bible too. God tells us to not add one word or omit one word of the Bible. Your cult is spinning your lives into the ditch!

I do not attempt to promote heterosexual issues and you should not attempt to promoted gay issues. We live in a free society and it allows us choice... but I can't recall the last time I saw a Heterosexual Rights March....


6
Of course god loves all his children, if two dudes want to be together, thats their business, but when you start with wanting marriage, NO WAY...thats an institution that is the best device for advancing modern civilization. The disrespect of the sacred union of a man and a woman is in no small part responsible for the dis-array of society today. "Gay" activists yell HOMOPHOBE when any state wants to protect marriage...but NAMBLA is almost all gay pride parades, and "poly-amorous" relationships are discussed as viable life choices on day time talk shows. Do what you will of your life, but I (and many others like me) will fight you vehemently for the "mainstreaming" of WRONG behavior. No gay marriage No man-boy love No poly-ammorous unions

I have no serious objections. However I raise the following question. Suppose you have screw driver. You use it to drive a screw normally. Will you ever use it as a nail or screw? Will you ever use a screw to perform the function of a screw driver? No you will not? Why? Since a screw driver is designed for a purpose so is screw. You can never reverse their functions. Please also note in this entire nature there are ordered pairs to deliver masculine and feminine functions. This is meant to keep the process of procreation going. We have already paid a heavy price for playing with ecology. Should you start a new experiment and find out after another 200 years that we have caused an irreparable damage to the mankind? Give it a thought.

you are a sick individual!!!! no way would i have sex with a man!!!! women are for men only!!!! i think it may be a little awkwards to do this sick stunt but you have the right to see anyone you choose i suppose but it is morally wrong!!!! by the way what is wrong with you loving a man?


9
I make no judgments on anyone, I agree, I too love all God's children, and wish you all the best.


10
I think that we love who we love. And if they make you happy and furfill all of your needs then who are we to judge. I know that alot of people will tell you that it is wrong and that the bible tells you that it is wrong. But how can a God that loves all his children condem you to hell for love. When he himself preaches of love? I am straight and have family members who are gay I feel the same about them now as I did before I knew. They are the same they only love different then I. And to be honest there are times when I get frustrated with my husband and wonder how it would be to be with a woman? After all women understand one another better than a man and a woman. I've never pursued that feeling though. Because I love my husband and I know that it was only anger talking at the time. But I say be who you are and love who you love and if people or friends or family can't accept that then they never truly loved you or understood you. They don't live your life. You do. And for now you are the only one who has to answer to your self. And when this earth is through and you meet your maker he will judge you as he sees fit. Not as everyone else sees it!!!!!!!!!!!!!


11
I say let them live their life the way they want to. I do not think it is a illness I think it is just a part of life for them. No one tells me how to live my life why should I tell anyone how to live theirs.

He does an excellent job of using his skills as an attorney for 13 years to manipulate the sacred text of the bible in an effort to condone what he chooses sexually. To the average lay person that isn't educated deeply into the scriptures, he gives an excellent sales presentation that would easily fool. However, to the educated, the errors are obvious (eg. errors or obvious liberalities with translating Koine Greek). I'm not fooled, and his is definitely not a church. Does God love him and all those who are gay? Absolutely, he loves all of his children! Does He approve of this? Absolutely not. I wish you no harm, and no....I do not hate you or him.

don't post the ad yet, go down to the post office with one of the shirts packaged as you would send them, and ask how much it would cost to send to anywhere in the US. Do not post international, it's too much hassle. Use the price you are given at the post office. Or look at other people selling t-shirts within the US and charge what they charge. Good luck!


2
There's a couple of things you can do. You can say, "shipping costs to be determined after auction" that way you can determine how much. You can guess at a cost, thats what I do. I overestimate a little bit. You can also get ebay to calculate a shipping cost based on the weight of the package. Therefore the cost will always be somewhat accurate depending on the person's zipcode. Goodluck.


3
Most people on Ebay just guess, if you over charge a dollar or two no one will complain and try to get the money back. Remember, when people bid they are agreeing to your terms and conditions on the shipping. If your really concerned go to the post office with the shirts and have them weighed, find a box that fits them, and then you can ask how much it would cost to ship them to anywhere in the US via regular mail, priority, etc.. It should cost the same no matter what state your shipping out to. For your own protection its usually worth spending the extra dollar on package tracking as well so you can make sure it gets there and have the evidence to prove it should there be a problem. Something else you can try, find a website that sells t-shirts, put 4 of them in your shopping cart and have the website calculate the shipping on the order for you. This should be pretty close to what you will pay to ship your shirts. Hope this helps!
