Question by : For a Bachelor’s (and later Master’s) Degree in Music Performance which college would you choose from these?
I am a junior in high school, and am a clarinetist. My dream career is to be a performer with a symphony/ philharmonic orchestra. I’ve been looking at many colleges, but my top choices right now are Oberlin (Conservatory of Music), University of Rochester (Eastman School of Music), The Boston Conservatory, The Curtis Institute of Music, and Julliard. Which of these do you think would be best as a whole musical educational experience, and also specifically as a clarinetist? Also, do you have any other suggestions? Thank you !
Best answer:
Answer by MusicIsMyLife
Julliard is the best in the world in my opinion, but you have to check the one with the best Clarinet course. I am going to attend Conservatory of New York. But the conservatory in San Francisco is great, too.

Q&A: K.G. going from Boston to Lakers?
Question by Kingofdaburbz: K.G. going from Boston to Lakers?
It seems like it is all falling into place now with Kobe finally getting another big man. It appears pretty obvious that this is the first of a few different moves that will land Garnett in L.A. with the Kobster. Try to follow, in a three way deal, Boston trades K.G. to Indiana for Jermaine O’Neal and a 5th round pick. Then L.A. sends Lamar Odem and a player to be named later to Indiana for KG in order to finally provide Kobe and the Lakers the “big man” they need in order to be somewhat competitive. Who knows, if they have great chemistry, and play above and beyond their ability, they might even be able to compete with Shaq and D. Wade.
Best answer:
Answer by Yung Baller
…No. If Boston trades for K.G., they won’t have the intention of sending him somewhere else.

I’m planning a trip to NYC, DC/Baltimore, and Boston for two days each in March. Any suggestions on highlights in each? I’ve been to NYC and DC before so I’m not too set on doing typical “touristy” things there but I’d like to limit it to cheaper/free activities.

Brooklyn botanical garden in nyc, just walk around the city. Midtown and downtown, walk around central park. Def go to the museum of natural history. They have a suggested price. That doesn’t mean u pay that. You can just give them a quarter, doesn’t matter. That money is just given for research. Every time I go the suggested price is like $ 17. I just give them a couple of dollars and I get my admission ticket.

do you think he just used me for sex?
Question by Lost One: do you think he just used me for sex?
he had sent me flowers for valentines day and seemed genuinly interested in me and was very attentive. he tried to kiss me on our first date and i pulled away. he asked me why i got so jumpy when he touched me and i confided in him and told him i had been sexually abused from 11 to 18. i am now 22. he said he really just wanted to hold me and for me to see what a good guy was like. i really started to fall for him. i hadnt slept with anyone in 2 yrs and he seemed really sweet and kind and i wanted to be close to him. so we did and he was patient and nice about it.
a few days later we got into an argument because he had really offended me and i got angry. since then he totally tuned me out and cut me off completely. stopped all contact. i texted him and he said that he just needed some time but that i could email him. i emailed him and let him know that i had feelings for him. he didnt respond so i called a couple of days later. he told me he read the email several times. he also said we may be friends in the future but that i needed to move on and not wait for him.
a week later he texted me and said good luck on my exam the next day. then he asked me the next day how my test went. then immediatly shut down and acted cold again. i got fed up and got a date with someone who seemed genuine. i texted him to say i had a date and that i was nervous. he responded and said “why would you tell me that?” then he made fun of me. i invited him to come to boston with me to hang out at this cool place thats outdoors and he said maybe. the next day i asked him if he wanted to see this movie that came out on video that hed been waiting to see and he responded “no thanks”
he said he wanted to be friends so i was trying to be genuine and make an effort yet he completely shut me down.

Answer by Its A boy!!!due on july 2nd!
you were too clingy. you scared him. when it comes to men , you never tell them that you have feelings for them that early. Men dont want commitment within 2 weeks and dont like clingy girls. I dont think he used you for sex. I think you clung onto him and made yourself look too needy.

Best answer:
Answer by volpe106
I would say in Boston to check out the Freedom Trail. You can go on a duck boat tour of the city. You should check out Faneuil Hall and Quincy Market. The Prudential Center has a sky deck where you can look at the whole city. Boston Commons park and so much more.
I live in Concord, NH just an hour from Boston and I still haven’t seen everything. Since you are there for only a day I would suggest you check out where things are and the T (Metro depending on where you live) schedule and see what you can do for the day.
I would suggest Faneuil Hall and Quincy Market for lunch. Its like a mall food court, but there are like a 100 different things to eat from all over the world and many places to look at little trinkets and gifts.
Hope this helps.

Best answer:
Answer by marie
I am not sure what you mean. Going back to the original Boston Garden? The current Garden? And do you mean the commuter rail North Station or the Subway North Station.
Basically the commuter rail North Station has always been connected with the Boston Garden. Then and now.

You can visit www.farecast.com and it will check multiple websites and find the lowest fare. It’ll even give you a prediction and tell you whether to buy your ticket now or wait for price drop. You may not be able to find a lower rate depending on when you’re wanting to travel, which airports you are flying from and/or into, etc. Good luck.

what colleges to apply to?
Question by Liv: what colleges to apply to?
I’m a senior and in the process of deciding what colleges to apply to.
I’m fairly open to location as long as it’s along the East Coast. Preferably New England/Boston area, the Carolina’s and the surrounding states, and Florida schools (I qualify for brightfutures), but like I said I’m open to pretty much anywhere.
My unweighted GPA is around the 3.6 to 3.9 area
My APs include: AP Government, AP Spanish Language, AP Literature
I have taken 4 credits of science (highest level being physics) and 4 of math (highest level being precal) THESE WERE ALL LEVEL 3 (normal)
My honor’s courses throughout hs have been:
English 2
English 3
Spanish 3 (also a dual enrollment for college credit)
Spanish 4 (also a dual enrollment for college credit)
US History (they didn’t offer an AP for my year)
3 semester courses of various histories (i.e. international relations)
I go to a christian hs so I have had to also take 4 credits of theology classes (idk if this is good or bad)
MY SATs: (im taking them again)
math: 580 (i know super low)
reading: 700
writing: 700 (12 on essay)
Literature subject test: 700
US history subj test: 610
Extracurriculars:
-In Freshman and sophomore year i was involved in 2 community youth volunteer groups (one promoting symphony, another general), and in junior and senior year i was involved in 1 different volunteer group that deals with raising money and awareness of the opera.
-Member of club that raises money and regularly visits a soup kitchen in sophomore year, in junior and senior year i was voted secretary of this club
-involved in Life Club in freshman and sophomore year
-created an organization that collects costumes for homeless children for halloween (sophomore, junior, senior — it expanded over years)
-worked at a real estate development company for junior and senior year
-started own cleaning company (very small)
-Member of National Honor Society
Also, this past summer (going from junior to senior) I found out/ was diagnosed with a learning disability that will allow me extended time on all tests in the future. Idk if this affects anything for college but it explains my low math scores and grades in general. Will colleges take this into consideration when they look at my grades?
So what colleges should i apply to?
Sorry this is really long, but I tried to give as much info as possible to get some feedback because the counselors at my school are not very good ![]()
Also, if there are additional colleges that are not along the East Coast that might be a good fit, include them too please
Best answer:
Answer by kittysavant
Check out all the schools that seem interesting to you – in cities where you’d like to live, where the weather is appealing, where the programs are intriguing, where people you admire had a great experience. Then see how you compare to the average freshman, which most colleges list on the Admissions page of their web sites. Only you know what inspires you, and where you can be happy. Do you want me to say you will get into Brown? Drexel? University of Florida? Who cares where you can get in if you don’t know where you want to go?

Should I look for an OB/GYN near my office or near my home?
Question by JMont: Should I look for an OB/GYN near my office or near my home?
My husband and I are trying to get pregnant.
I work in Boston, MA, but we live in Lowell, MA (about 30 miles north of Boston). Since I take the commuter rail to work, it takes me over an hour to get home. When I have dr’s apointments I end up having to take a half day of work because of the time constraints involved with public transportation.
Should I find a doctor in Boston and go through my pregnancy/delivery in Boston rather than Lowell? Or should I find a doctor closer to Lowell?

I would recommend trying to find one closer to work so that it makes it easier for you to get back to your job.

Question by : why are people considered uneducated and insane for seeking answers about massive natural disasters(end game)?
Madrid fault Mega Quake , Yellowstone Super Volcanoe, Mount Rainier, Pacific Northwest Mega Quake, North American Super Storm, The San Francisco Quake and Oceanic Anoxia, Super Tornado, Super Deep Freeze East Coast Blizzard, Solar Storm, Major Outbreak or Pandemic.
Climate-Changing Ocean Disruption, North Atlantic
Sea Change
Winters in the Northeast begin to bite with a ferocity last seen during the deep freezes of 1936 and 1978, when icebreakers plied the Mississippi and Hudson rivers. Winter temperatures in Washington, D.C., begin to approximate those of Boston. Extreme drought grips the Midwest, sending grain commodity prices soaring; crops fail and farmers spin into bankruptcy. Climate patterns go haywire. London, Paris and the Scandinavian capitals shiver through their coldest winters since 1850. Summer monsoons in India and China weaken, affecting harvests that feed hundreds of millions of people. Fisheries decline when plankton populations collapse. Drought and flood push worldwide agricultural losses to $ 250 billion.
Magnitude 6.9 Earthquake, Mississippi River Valley
Stress Test…Ten miles beneath Caruthersville, Mo., stress along an ancient rift zone releases in a violent spasm. Shock waves from the magnitude 6.9 earthquake roll 160 miles up the Mississippi River Valley to St. Louis, and 75 miles downriver to Memphis, Tenn. The soils under Memphis ripple like a shook rug. Century-old brick buildings heave, then crumble. Sewer and water lines rupture. Gaslines snap. Downtown, the 14-story federal building, a decade overdue for quakeproofing, rains 3-ton panels.
While all eyes are fixed on California as the site of the next “Big One,” damage from a quake along the New Madrid Fault–which runs for 150 miles between Marked Tree, Ark., and Cairo, Ill.–may be greater. The hot, shattered crust beneath California absorbs seismic energy quickly and focuses it at an epicenter, says Gary Patterson, a geologist at the University of Memphis. But, he says, “the relatively hard, cold slab of rock beneath the central U.S. allows that energy to travel great distances.” A quake’s impact zone is at least 10 times larger on the New Madrid Fault than on the San Andreas
80-Ft.-High Tsunami, Atlantic Coast
Coast Buster…Cumbre Vieja, the most active volcano in the Canary Islands, lurches as a violent earthquake wracks its upper slopes. A third of the mountain breaks away and plunges into the Atlantic Ocean, pushing up a dome of water nearly 3000 ft. high. They don’t yet know it, but tens of millions of Americans from Key West, Fla., to South Lubec, Maine, have just 9 hours to escape with their lives.
The collapse of Cumbre Vieja unleashes a train of enormous waves traveling at jetliner speed. The first slam into nearby islands, then the African mainland. By the time they reach the East Coast of North America, the waves are up to 80 ft. high, and in low-lying areas, sweep several miles inland.
a volcanic mudflow–and a nightmare realized for the approximately 150,000 Washington residents who live and work on the solidified debris of past flows. The mass of roiling mud, rock and trees, traveling at 60 mph, would quickly funnel into the canyons of the Puyallup and Carbon rivers, where it would rise 180 ft. high before spreading into the lowlands as a 15-ft. wave.
Earth is one rough place. Even the most devastating storms of recent years pale in sheer destructive power against outsize natural disasters of the past, such as continent-smothering ice sheets, ocean-raising floods, super volcanoes and the occasional asteroid. Because cataclysms will always be a regular feature of life on Earth. Some will be beyond human control; others could be disasters of our own making. Either way, prepare for a real doozy.
I personally have six months of food, medical supplies, fishing gear, guns and ammo, and a variety of other thing one needs to survive in a disaster. I dont know whats coming but I know something is wether its from god or nature or man something wicked this way comes. Too many people are feeling it and too many people are in denial about it calling everyone like me crazy or mental, is being prepared for anything while living normal make you nuts? No does knowing about all the possible disasters make you a dooms day sayer? i dont think so. G.I.Joe said knowings half the battle so in that case i must be winning. I know, Im prepared, and I am always watching. Call me crazy but Im telling you something is going to happen soon, and it will be devistating. for those who call me insane, see what you say then.

am i in the right for dumping him? (he blames me)?
Question by : am i in the right for dumping him? (he blames me)?
my boyfriend and i have beent together for almost 2 months. he works full time at his family’s pizza shop. but is the manager so usually is in the office on facebook….he gets two days off and a half day. not once has he hung out with me on the days off…even though ive expressed that i reallt want to see him during the day he hasnt made spending a day with me a priority. last wednesday he promised to take me to an amusement park which is somewhere he wanted to go but i was willing to take the offer because i really wanted to see him …..needless to say he called me as i was on my way to his house and said he needed to go into work to fix a computer and that he’d come get me at 1030pm. he never called and never showed and i drove by his work and house and he wasnt at either place and his phone was off he didnt contact me until 6pm the next day after i texted him a picture of his works parking lot empty….then he promised to hang out with me on the 4th of july (his next day off) and invited me to his family’s party but he ended up over an hour away in boston with his friends smoking weed. he asked me if i would come to his friends and watch the fireworks and drive him home since he drove in with his brother. i chose to watch fireworks at the beach 20 minutes away and told him i was headed to the beach and he started being a jerk about it. he ignored me for a day and a half after the fact. i messaged him and said i was upset and wanted to talk and he ignored that. so i texted and said “this relationship is a joke to you, we hang out and talk on your terms and when its convenient for you, you blow me off once shame on you, you blow me off twice, shame on me, im done” he responded “after the way you acted on sunday (4th of july) i dont care” the only time we do hang out is after he gets out of work at around 11pm i drive the 30 minutes to his parents house…we talk for a bit, have sex and then i go home.
