Plot: Sometime in the future, the Earth is controlled by one government. Even with such power and control, the government keeps to itself. They never broadcast news about what’s going on. People keep to themselves, live well, and keep the government on the bottom of their list of worries.
On the West of a continent with no name is a boarding school. Even with the government at such a distance in the minds of the masses, the school is famous. But no one talks about it. The school recruits only the best of the best, the smartest of the smart and the strongest of the strong in hopes of creating a capable group of kids ready to tackle the oh so secret government jobs. There’s training in every field imaginable- economics, history, propaganda, marketing, athletics.
When our main character is recruited to attend the school, she is hardly surprised. Unlike the ignorant people she used to live with (with the exception of her one friend from back home) she actually carried around with her some common sense. While everyone from home either congratulated her or glared at her with either looks of jealousy or hatred, she was just ready to leave.
At the school, boys and girls are not to communicate. In fact, making friends is discouraged.
As the protagonist becomes familiar with the new school, she begins to notice things others don’t—things that make her question the objectives of the school and the government. She starts putting two and two together, and comes across a secret the government has been keeping form everyone: one that could change everything.

I need consulting and web/automation assistance for my successful small business. I need to find some investors/company that has direct experience in hospitality, hotels, and automation. I’m looking to build the “expedia” for my niche market, but want the “right” business to bring on board. Any advice on how to take the 1st step would be great! We are ready to invest in the next steps to create a automated site.

My living situation sucks. i live across the hall from my ex boyfriend and no one lives in this building?
Im a college freshman. I go to school in chicago. I live 20 minutes from the main campus by subway in this university affiliated housing that no one lives in. There are about 2000 students who live in this 18 story building, but it consists of like 4 colleges, and no students interact with people from other colleges because you dont know who is from what college. Its very very antisocial here. No interaction at all really. There are only like 30 kids from my entire college in this building. Its weird. On my floor there is a wing for kids from my college, and there are about 17 of us. They are all video gaming guys. I am one of the only girls, besides my suitemates (one is a big partier and tried to have sex with my ex boyfriend, so clearly i dont interact with her. Shes mean too, and really annoying, and she never talks to me. Then there is my other suitemate who is nice but i dont hang out with her because she is gone a lot from her dorm and always busy)
So really, im the only girl who is ever there in the dorms. I dont mind being the only girl, its just that all the guys are all like one big clique. My ex boyfriend lives right across the hall from me and is like the most popular guy in this wing now. None of the people here talk to me, because of what happened between me and Mike. Once Mike and I broke up, they stopped talking to me. Its really awkward leaving my dorm room and seeing one of them in the hallway because they just see me as his ex girlfriend….and its really awkward because Mike snickers to his friends when he sees me.
I have two months of school left. I dont think im coming back to this college next year. I think im going back home to the east coast next year. But how can i survive the rest of this year? Its so lonely and isolating here. I dont have a roommate anymore. In general, this building is just really anti-social. We arent even allowed to keep our doors open ever. We have to keep them shut at all times.

By economic liberal, I should be more specific in that I mean economic liberals who identify as some sort of creative type who wants to be active in the market. In other words, an artists who wants to market oneself.
Now, as a traditionalist conservative, who identifies right on a number of issues, I’ve made it no secret that economically, I’m a card-carrying “East Coast Liberal” type; I believe in regulated capitalism with a reasonable safety net to safeguard the poor. But I am also a realist. I realise that the higher the tax rates are, the less activity there will be for the private sector. Is it possible for a non-laissez-fair economy to still achieve growth? You bet it is, history proves this. But because those of us who prize creativity want to present what we come up with to the market, it would seem that the liberal economy in some form could slow that down a bit.
Have they ever done any studies on how politics affect the entertainment/creative industries? Some claim that an artist who truely goes for his self interest should be libertarian. But I disagree, because Europe has always been more artsy than the US and coincidentally, has always been more economically tempered. Also, if such a statement was true, why do you suppose the VAST majority of creative types, are at least somewhat liberal?
I think this conflict is worth looking at. Discuss!

I’m just looking for some guidance. I have big dreams and goals. I’m only 15 but I been modeling since fourth grade. Living in virginia and having a dream like this is super hard because as everyone know virginia isn’t a fashion capitol. My luck hasn’t been too good. Only things I keep running into is modeling schools that charge a arm and a leg for everything and then I end up getting nothing out of the deal. I’m only 5’3 and my niche is runway but everytime I google about petite model I see they can’t do runway only priny films commercials. Could you please give a little guidance? Thanks,have a good day.
