Is this cheating? Am I in danger of getting in trouble for the same thing?

May 22, 285 by theleftfoot | Posted in Standards & Testing

I heard of a grouping of AP students who were getting practice essays online to study with. They would write the essays out of just do timed outlines etc to prep for the upcoming AP check-up and have the other people in the group check it over and discuss it as a group. Well as luck would have it one of the essays they used for practice ended up being an disquisition question their teacher handed out on one of their review tests. They took the test, wrote their essay etc etc. A connect weeks later the teacher found out that they had already written the essay at one of their practice study sessions weeks before and had them in loads of ruffle for academic dishonesty.
I wanted to grab some practice essay questions on line because we're writing an go about tomorrow on a fairly difficult book and doing a couple of those usually helps me gather my thoughts and the themes/patch/important factors in the book. Personally I only use the ones that are PURELY QUESTIONS they dont have an essay fastened to them. I'm afraid to do this however because of what happened to these 10 kids. If I get academic dishonesty on my record the best I can do is a state college even with my above 4.0 gpa. Is this in fact cheating? Any other suggestions you have that can help me gather my thoughts on the book?
Thanks

What is the BEST way to study for the SAT Subject Test in Literature? Is the Karlan prep book enough studying?

May 22, 9141 by Steven | Posted in Standards & Testing

I've infatuated 3 subject tests, but I'm planning on taking them one more time on October 10. I'm now a senior, so it's my last chance. These were my scores the last be that as it may:
Spanish 770
US History 690
Literature 420

I've been studying a lot for the SAT II Literature by using the Kaplan prep book. Also, I'm enrolled for AP English Information so most of the stuff is sinking in b/c I have to study lots of literary devices (allusion, syntax, paradox, ode, etc.)

So do you imagine I'm studying effectively or what else can I do to study before October 10, 2009???

Please help! I desperately want to be confident and stop being so shy, what can I do?

May 22, 9078 by Angel D | Posted in Mental Health

Well it's more than totally being shy, I've got social anxiety and have no clue what to do about it. I've stopped drinking caffeine to calm the physical symptoms down a tad but.. The information still remains that I get these symptoms and I have zero confidence, really low self-esteem. People have called me repugnant while others have said I'm pretty. I was teased quite a bit in school but not really bullied.

I think I may also have depression. I've got no friends and digs life is really bad but I can't change how things are at home so I really, really want to gain coolness.

I'm 18 and in a year or two I'm going to University. At the moment I'm looking for a job, handed out a few CVs but not heard back yet. If I do, I know I'm universal to be terrified about the interview, and if I get past that, the job itself is gonna be hard to get used to because of the anxiety. I've never had a proper boyfriend either!

Please please please tell me how to advance confidence so I can go out into the world and be happy with myself and be able to attract good friends.. Any tips, books etc would be great.. Thanks.

Well when your go to university you might sustenance new friends and don't be scared of interview just think of happy things

Here's what I do, take all insecurities and squash them like a bug. It will travail long enough to meet people, and friends will build your self esteem in the long run.

IMHO, the most talented way to gain confidence is to put yourself into situations to get experiences - whatever your "comfort zone" is - go outside of it - try new things - thru experiences and maddening new things - you can learn to be more comfortable with yourself in more situations. it's important to focus on getting comfortable with yourself and content with who you are - try to find light-heartedness within yourself and not look for it from an external source.

Steps
you always deter calm, cool and collected, even in hurried situations? Are you very patient with people? Do you always see the smart side of things? Are you always there for your friends?
Find your passion. Whether it's baton twirling, belligerent arts, classic cars, musician, or basket weaving, you will feel confident pursuing that endeavor by recognizing what you use doing the most. More importantly, you'll be enjoying your progress.
Choose a role model, whether someone close to you, or someone famous. Muse over of the qualities that the role model displays, whether physical, emotional, moral, and/or spiritual. Work towards acquiring those.
Don't mull over about yourself too much. Try not to focus negatively on how you come across or how others may perceive you. Instead, focus more on making other people happy, and that will increase your confidence as other people start enjoying your company.
Accept compliments gracefully. Don't roll your eyes and say, "Yeah, correctly," or shrug it off. Take it to heart and respond positively ("Thank you" and a smile works well).
Be sure that you have important things to say and do. When you feel strongly about something, speak loudly and clearly and make eye contact with people. Be yourself.
Take pains of yourself. Eat a healthy diet. Don't abuse your body, don't overload it, and don't deny it any of the things it needs. At the same time, don't take over. Buying all the moisturizers, creams and conditioners will not bring you closer to who you want to be. Those things are only band-aids and assign up. Confidence comes from within. Take the time to reflect on your life and do some emotional maintenance. In order to be confident, you must and i say MUST value yourself and assume from that your well-being is important.
Work out. This is a real fast change. The gym can transform even the last geek. It will help you be who you are, and not be afraid of it. That's the genuine confidence. Getting enough exercise can boost your confidence amazingly. Not only will it give you more energy throughout the day, but being in good physical formulate will make you feel more "worthy" you could say, to talk to others be yourself.
Stick up for yourself. If people put you down (and not in a good-natured, joking way), then let them be acquainted with that their opinion of you is not held by everyone--most of all yourself. This may, at first, be hard to do. But once you stick up for yourself a few times, your confidence builds and you get more adept at it.
Celebrate your individuality. If you discern you've got something special or different, then embrace it; don't hide it! That's diversity! You may wish that you were taller, or shorter, skinnier, stronger, whatever the if it should happen may be. But you need to realize that, if you were like everyone else, then you wouldn't be who you are. "What am I?" you ask; the answer's easy: You're a unique sole who is capable of growing and learning.
Take action. It is surprising how powerful the simple step of taking an performance can be. And the action you take need not be something extravagant or grand. It could be something as simple as tackling a task that you have been procrastinating, such as writing a scholarship precisely or tidying up that corner of the garage that has been out of control for the last several months. It could also be something as interesting as taking a class in yoga, art, veiled design, anything that interests you that you haven't done yet. Whether large or small, action brings with it exhilaration, enthusiasm, and the reliance that other things can be done as well.
You'll need to work on your posture. Don't slouch or slump your shoulders, nothing says "I require confidence" more than a person who appears like they're trying to hide from the world. Make accurate that your back is straight, your shoulders are square, and your chest is puffed out slightly (but stay loose, otherwise you'll appear steep and uptight). Keep your chin up and your eyes forward rather than looking at the ground.
Make a conscious effort to grin often. A smile makes you appear warm, honest, friendly, and confident. You can also just relax your facial muscles exhaustively, which will make you appear calm and relaxed. Observe yourself in a mirror to make sure that you don't have a tense or on tenterhooks facial expression, because if you do others will believe you to be sad, angry, or uncomfortable.
When engaging in conversation with others, make eye contact. View into the other person's eyes as you talk to make yourself seem interested, calm, and confident. Avoiding eye contact makes you happen shy and submissive, while directly staring for too long may make you appear angry or scared. So the best counsel is to gaze into a person's eyes as you converse with them while occasionally shifting your gaze or looking around.
Shaking hands can wax your confidence . When it comes to gesturing with your hands, keeping your hands far apart and your palms open makes you rise open and honest. Pointing with your fingers and nd bringing your hands closer together can draw emphasis to what you are saying. Don't overuse dispense gestures or you'll look nervous and unstable. Avoid wringing your hands or touching your sleeves, as these things can seduce you appear nervous, tense, or even dishonest.
If you're a man, have a firm handshake when shaking another man's hand. If you're shaking a cleaning woman's hand, don't grasp her hand any harder than she grasps yours.
Put a little strut or swagger into your walk. Move like you have a ambition, and keep your knees slightly bent to avoid appearing stiff and rigid.
Act confident, even if you don't truly commiserate with it. After a while, it will come naturally, and you will feel confident in yourself! Also, learn to not care what others think of you. If you let what people say to you bring you down, you will never be cock-a-hoop. Only care about how you feel about yourself, and don't always take what people say at face value, because they may be jealous of you and are intending to put you down. Don't let them stop your progress, but affirm up for yourself while acting calmly!

Hope this helps :-)

1.You will demand to be able to relax. Find a quiet room where you will not be disturbed and set up your ritual or meditation area on the floor. Transform sure the mirror is set up so that you can gaze into it comfortably. You may also want a pillow to sit on. Also, set the white candle near you, preferably on a board where it cannot get knocked over.

2.Light the white candle and begin to relax. Stare into the mirror, looking into your reflected eyes, and say to yourself: "I have reliance in myself.”

3.Listen. Any doubts you have about yourself will begin to surface. Address each doubt and negativity that surfaces. Ask yourself why you feel that way. Create about the answers you are given.

4.When you are finished talking to your mirror image, it is time to reflect on what you learned. Ignore out your doubts in a journal and think about how these doubts may be overcome or how they may be an exaggerated look at yourself. Continue to perform the picture talk ritual as often as needed.

you have no idea how long it took me to type this i really hope this helps :)

Prohibition caring about what people think, this means your parents, your friends, and all those around you. Find people you like and hang out with them but don't coins into them. Don't have a 'click' and never stop to hear the local bitch preach. Find out who you are, and stick with it. You are who you are, whether you follow my advise or not. Everyone is generaly the same to you either way, but you yourself will bleed for better.

Hi, i can see there are many people with this approachable of problem, but think positively, you don't have a physical problem which makes you feel shy but on the other side and about relationships most of the guys take a fancy to their GF to be shy and i agree with that as there's no need that a girl has excessive pride to say to people that she's pretty. Anyway Look at my long surrejoinder here at a related question hoping that it will help:

Walther p22 with hollow points a good concealed carry?

May 22, 8472 by Knoxpwns | Posted in Hunting

One of my friends owns a P22 with works laser sight, and is willing to sell it to me for 200 bucks with a couple boxes of ammo (which is cheaply anyways but hey). Is this is a good gun for concealed carry for the most part? I am highly aware it has literally no stopping power but I get wind of that the amount of movement the caliber of bullet does once it enters the body is actually surprisingly high even being so stingy.

For the most part, it being personal protection, I would hope to only have to ever use it for intimidation, but if a bad situation got worse and I were to crank off a few rounds and book it, would it be an ok start?

Im on a school network for the internet by ethernet cord, how can it be private?

May 22, 8103 by Mandi | Posted in Computer Networking

Hey,
okay, so i only moved to college, and our network isnt by wifi, its ethernet, i have the connection set up and everything but alot of stuff is shared to all appearances.

For instance, on itunes, i can view about 4 other peoples music, AND listen to it like it is my own, because it is a "shared Library".

How ever, i used my thumb driveway to put some documents onto my computer ( mac pro) and when i did, it came up in a file where alot of other people, students, work was also. i really dont lust after every student on our huge campus reading my stuff and knowing what i do on my personal computer like theyre in the same latitude with me. i guess im just asking if on a network for such a big community can you set all the settings to private? and more than that, can everyone see and watch and read what i am doing on my computer at any but if they wanted to- down to the point of knowing what sites i go on, passwords, ect.?

Also, i have a mac book pro, so help with settings would be helpful. i went to my settings and set the shibboleth for alot of things but that wont help if my internet's network makes me wide open to anyone. lol

i nothing but dont want to feel like my poor little computer's legs are spread open for everyone to get wahtever they hunger for at any time. lol

All help is useful and welcomed!,

Are these types of fairies real?

May 22, 7586 by Sam | Posted in Mythology & Folklore

I young lady to read, and I've been reading these books that have fairies in them.

The faires are human looking, but very mean. They use their glamour to hide what they exceptionally look like.
