ok so i'm not sure as to whether this statement is correct or not.

"For example, clinical and skills professors have long successfully straddled both the practice and academic worlds."

i think the long successfully straddled part reads incorrect. need to get it right. please answer as to whether the statement is correct or if not, how i should correct it.

thanks! :)

ok i heard this song abt a yr back and cant remember its name, and now its bugging me like crazy.

it has this woman in a black dress dancing. she goes into this bar or some dance class (dont remember properly) where she starts dancing with all the guys. her dress, on the front, is right till her upper thigh and its longer at the back.

and she has a very irritating, screechy kind of voice.

not sure, but the song has a one word title.

i know the info i've given is really vague, but it'd be awesome if someone could help out. right answer- 10 pts! :)

thanks a ton :)

found this on the wimbledon website, just thought i'd share in case someone missed out. it made me actually LAUGH OUT LOUD! :)

With the queue packed and Stewards turning people away, there is no need to ''big up'' Fantastic Friday. One wonders how the BBC commentary team will bill the day's play after the Daily Telegraph's television critic noted a new verbal virus among the team: the word 'big'. Michael Deacon's column had many of us chortling over the cornflakes, so we pass on his illustration of the way people locked in a small space together for any length of time inevitably start to speak like each other:

''John McEnroe, Tim Henman, Simon Reed and the rest are all big on "big"; they're big "big" fans,'' he writes. ''It's impressive, how much they squeeze out of such a non-big word. To them it's both adjective ("Big forehand drive") and adverb ("He's serving big"), and contains almost infinite shades of significance. They use it to mean "important" ("That was a big shot"), "successful" ("He needs a big tournament"), "hard" ("He's hitting the ball very big"), "decisive" ("This could be a big game"), "winning" ("He'll try to hit the big shots early"). Sometimes, especially for Henman, big just isn't big enough: "This is a big big point."

In general, the commentary team use "big" to voice approval ("Big performance today from Andy Murray"), although perversely they never use its opposite to voice disapproval: we never hear, for example, "Oh dear, tiny return from Fish" or, "Minuscule service game there from Peng. Almost invisible."

plus wt do u think abt this yrs wimbledon? i think its been pretty fun till now.

i dont know wts the problem with youtube. but wen i open a video, it has no buttons for playing it-just the name of the video and these buttons for liking/disliking it. basically cos of this, i cant view any video.

has there been sujm change in the youtube policy or sumthing? how cn i view the video???

pls help!

i was just reading djokovics interview and instead of sking him about his game, almost all of the questions were leading questions, in which it seemed the journalists desperately wanted djok to sy that fed is god, fed is great etc etc.

its irritating....and more imporatantly stupid and irrational.in the interview atleast ask about the persons game and all, instead of just trying to get him to praise the other person.

your views?

hi guys

havent been here for a long time and was just wondering what has been going on in yahoo answers-am now in a hostel and was just curious if u people could tell me what has been going on here-the reactions after federer's win, what is up with nadal, and what about roddick?

any news about any couple or anything at all-stuff liken nadal is over or whatever.

just havent been here for a long time and wanted to catch up.

i know i can read all the old questions and stuff-but that would take far too much time which i dont have.

please do tell me whats going on!

hi guys

i need to make a project for socio and i need a topic real quick-something new and interesting, which can be made in 2-3 weeks and something that has already not been researched on too much(not something vast or well researched like partition violence or rise of fundamentalism in india)

this is what we were given by our prof-

A student just wrote asking if he could research the topic: RELIGIOUS

INSTITUTIONS AND THEIR IMPACT ON SOCIETY

This would be a very good issue to look into – researchers usually start

with a broad orienting question like this – the next step is to sharpen

the focus - which religious institution/s, what part of their activity do

you want to examine, which society are you referring to

(bangalore/karnataka/south india/north India - in other words, what is the

region you have in mind) and also the time period - do you want to examine

this issue in medieval times or in the 21st century or since independence

-

In short, you will need to arrive at a concrete research topic that you

can do justice to in the next few weeks. Don’t choose topics that will

take months to execute. It seems hard but give it some thought: think

about the socially most relevant changes happening in the city/state you

come from, go through a magazine or a newspaper and a research topic will

occur to you.

so ya i live in india and if u could give me some topic relevant to india or even the world, something interesting and not too hard or already too well researched.

plz reply real quick-best answer 10 points!!!!!!!!!!!!

a good suggestion would be appreciated.

i do.i am obviously disappointed with nadals loss,but now i want soderling to beat federer in the final.i really respect federer for the game he has and how far he ahs reached,but i have personally never liked him.infact i have been kind of a federer hater.

so nadal fans-considerling soderling beat nadal and the other factors and choices involved,who do u want to win on sunday?

i was just curious- who is his girlfriend.

i had heard he had the same girlfriend for a long time.

could anyone give details?

is his present girlfriend the same girl who he kissed when he won the french open in 2003?

waiting for ur answers......

i was just thinking about this thing- when the opponent hits a great shot, we never evr see federer applauding, nadal applauds from time to time and djokovic always gives his opponent some claps when there is a good shot.

go nadal!

have u noticed this.dont u thing its kind of weird and arrogant on fed's part to not applaud, even when his opponent hits a between the legs winner?

as cocky as novak is, he always applauds his opponents good shots and is one person who is so cordial at the net.

and he seems like maybe one of the only guys who pretty often hugs his opponents after a match.

whats ur opinion on all this?

check this out

u can even go through the video at atptennis.com

the players are looking so damn good

i mean they are looking terrifically hot.

i would love to get that calender.

who says footballers are the best

maybe they got to look at these photos

what are your views on the pics

i think verdasco,mathieu,haas and tursnov are looking great

actually all of them are

what about u?

ok this is one realisation that i have made after nadal's victory at wimbledon.

the fed supporters are understandably sad and sour, but they seem to be grumbling, complaining and abusing nadal,saying his win was a fluke and what not.

whenever nadal loses i have seen that we nadal supporters act in a more sensible way,and dont make excuses and grumble about the situation.

what say about this analysis of nadal against fed supporters?

another thing just get the feeling sometimes when i read the answers here that some people have swithed over from fed to nadal.do u think so?

actually i want to buy a new racket.

i am ready to spend money(actually my aunt will be buying it for me from the US and sending it to me in india)

so could u advise me on which racket to go for.

my coach has asked me to go for a lighter racket weighing about 250-260 grams.

he said i could maybe go in for the new series by wilson, or even some other company.

could u give me some advise about which racket to buy?

it would be really nice if u could put in a link as well.

in the press conference after the wimbledon final, federer said-its feels really bad to think that u lost the biggest championship because of maybe some bad light.

isnt that a really bad attitude-blaming the light for the loss.the light was bad for both the players and putting the blame on the light seems real loser like to me.

i have earlier also said that federer always blames things and gives stupid excuses for his losses- when he lost to nalbandian last year,he said the courts were not fast like the hardcourts are supposed to be.

whats ur say on this excuse giving?

P.S. i am really happy nadal won.finally the people who branded him a 1 surface man can keep shut.

go nadal!

i really dont get the meaning of playing defensive and playing offence, though i pretty much understand the concept of playing attack and aggressive.

can you please explain playing offence and defence and the difference?

sharapovas dresses are customised and no one else wears the same dress except her.how come some other girls are wearing the dress she is wearing,but in just a different brownish colour.yhe dress was supposed to be sharapovas so how come so many other players are also wearing it?
