Resolved Question: Is this a good Junior Year schedule?

Which schedule look better.
Dance Production
On Your Own / ?
Spanish 1
US History
English 3
Culinary 1 ROP / Yoga
I didn’t even get scheduled into a class for second period for the second semester!
My desired schedule, in no particular order would be this:
English 3
US History
Spanish 1
Physics, Marine Science, or Human Anatomy
Math Analysis
Culinary or Psychology (1st Sem) / Yoga (2nd sem)
My current schedule just seem too slow and easy and has a class missing and i have science credits i still need and i want a little challenge so i for sure want Math Analysis. Dance Prod. I just don’t want to stay in because I was in it last year and it’s not that enjoyable for me and I would rather take an elective i can have fun in or explore an area of interest. Plus the financial cost is 90 dollars plus monthly bills for the Performing Arts program. I also want to prioritize and stop slacking this year and achieve my fullest potential, which mean trying harder and not letting myself be as distracted and take a bit more of a challenging curriculum. BTW, my college plan include Junior College then transferring to University.
im going to community college for 2 years then transferring. Im only taking the third year of math analysis as a challenge and science because i want a challenge and i need science credits since i dropped Chem last year. Honors and AP are too late to sign up for because the summer work is due on the first day.
Even if i was going straight to a University its only 3 yrs require and 4 recommended. Unfortunately at my high school the next classes go Algebra, Geometry, Algebra 2, Math Analysis, then AP Calculus. There are no Honors math classes and there is no regular Calculus.

A High Antioxidant Spice Blend Attenuates Postprandial Insulin and Triglyceride Responses and Increases Some Plasma Measures of Antioxidant Activity in Healthy, Overweight Men.

J Nutr. 2011 Jun 22;
Skulas-Ray AC, Kris-Etherton PM, Teeter DL, Chen CY, Vanden Heuvel JP, West SG

There is much interest in the potential of dietary antioxidants to attenuate in vivo oxidative stress, but little characterization of the time course of plasma effects exists. Culinary spices have demonstrated potent in vitro antioxidant properties. The objective of this study was to examine whether adding 14 g of a high antioxidant spice blend to a 5060-kJ (1200 kcal) meal exerted significant postprandial effects on markers of plasma antioxidant status and metabolism. Healthy overweight men (n = 6) consumed a control and spiced meal in a randomized crossover design with 1 wk between testing sessions. Blood was sampled prior to the meal and at 30-min intervals for 3.5 h (total of 8 samples). Mixed linear models demonstrated a treatment × time interaction (P < 0.05) for insulin and TG, corresponding with 21 and 31% reductions in postprandial levels with the spiced meal, respectively. Adding spices to the meal significantly increased the ferric reducing antioxidant power, such that postprandial increases following the spiced meal were 2-fold greater than after the control meal (P = 0.009). The hydrophilic oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) of plasma also was increased by spices (P = 0.02). There were no treatment differences in glucose, total thiols, lipophilic ORAC, or total ORAC. The incorporation of spices into the diet may help normalize postprandial insulin and TG and enhance antioxidant defenses.

Open Question: How to overcome the fear of being alone in the dark…?

For the past week I have not been able to sleep. Thank god it’s summer so, i still have the opportunity to sleep during the day. But, other than that I would have to go and lay with my older brother in order to feel safe enough to sleep. When I’m in the dark I get real tense but, once I close my eyes i feel suffocated. The worse thing is my brother is going to a Culinary School in Dallas and will not be back for a week. I can’t just stay awake all night and sleep all day. That will mess up my schedule and after 12 everyone else falls asleep. I’d just be awake in the dark and paranoid with no one to keep me busy. I know this is a lot of detail but, I really need Help. I’m 15 and definitely don’t want this to be a problem like it’s been. Once school starts up i’m going to be taking AP classes. I need my sleep. Please anyone at all, help.
What’s weird is when I was little I would be the one my Brother got in bed with because, he was scared. I’d be the one who walked bravely in the dark. I use to have no night light, I gradually got a night light, then it went to closet light, than tv, than hall way light and tv, and now I have to either sleep with my bed room light and tv on or with my brother. ( sorry about the bad grammar or whatever, I’m half asleep.)

Open Question: Are College Degrees Worth It?!?

I am going to culinary school to get my undergraduate degree in Baking & Pastry Arts/Culinary Management. But, in the culinary field, certificates are acceptable too. My parents want me to have a college degree and are willing to partially help me out, so I plan to get a degree.
With the downturn of the economy, are college degrees –in general– really worth it? What’s your opinion?
Note: The economy does get wobbly every few years, but I believe this recession has hit us bad. We and numerous other countries have gained a huge amount of debt that seems almost impossible to pay back. And such, it is destabilizing many governments, which causes an even more unstable global and local economy
We might regain some of our economy back, but we will never return to what we once were. Therefore, with a smaller economy, there will be less and less jobs.
I do think that highly skilled jobs, such as finance, IT, engineering, ect., will become less important and less needed. Jobs that are basic to human needs (food, construction, medical, etc), on the other hand, will become more and more needed and/or will be more stable. In times of economical downturn, people return to simpler lifestyles and get back to the basics.
Again, this is just what I think. Please share your own opinion!
