Winter session at my college has been canceled, is there any where else to take classes over winter break?

Wednesday, June 23rd, 2010

I just found out that the winter classes have been canceled due to budget cuts. I was planning to take 2 classes over break to make next semester much less challenging with a couple less classes. I am planning to transfer to UCSD from this community college next fall and I need to find a place that offers classes online or in school that are UC approved, so I can take some over break. Anyone know of anywhere? Thanks.

uhhh i no wat u mean. my community winter classes was cancelled too. i would suggest find the closet school that offeres winter classes…good luck

How much do winter tires cost in Canada?

Saturday, June 19th, 2010

I have a 1999 Pontiac grand am. Any idea of how much the winter tires will cost? Please let me know! Thanks
Im getting them wholesale.

Well if you are getting them wholesale you should tell us what they are worth. I`m sure you are aware that there are different types of winter tires and that the price will also vary . You can go to Canadian Tire and get a cheap tire for $49 or you can get a Michelin for $180. And what makes you so special that you think you are getting a wholesale price?

Winter Gardens. Is your garden arranged with ornamental things that add a splash of color even in winter?

Thursday, June 17th, 2010

Some statues, ornaments or gates to catch and hold the glistening snow? Maybe red berries or an ornamental tree that rises up out of the sleeping earth. I love gardening and in the winter gardens sleep so I make sure mine still brings me joy when I look out the window, especially when it snows.

Nope. I’m not really into statues, etc. A great way to add colour to a winter garden is planing a dogwood bush with red bark. Very nice against the white snow.

Why does Winter start on December 21 in the Northern Hemisphere?

Monday, June 14th, 2010

I live in Melbourne so our seasons are the opposite to those in the UK, US, Canada, Asia and Europe. But I know that Winter starts on December 21 up there? Why not just December 1? And does it end on March 21? In Australia (inc. Melbourne and Sydney) all our seasons begin on the 1st, so summer is December 1 to February 28, Autumn is March 1 to May 31, Winter is June 1 to August 31 and Spring is September 1 to November 30. Why does Winter in the NH start on this date and do all seasons start on the 21st?

Seasons are defined by people and vary according to the what they define as a season. For example, the Viking "primstave" which was a graduated piece of wood working as a calendar, had the 14th of October as the first day of the winter. Today, many Norwegians will tell you that the first day of the winter is the day the first snow comes and that varies from place to place and year to year.

Meteorology can’t build statistics based on those vague definitions and, in the northern hemisphere, the winter is, by convention, define as the period between the winter solstice to the spring equinox. That is from roughly the 22th of December to the 22th of March.

What you call then the Australian seasons are also in the mouth of the people because I can assure you that for Australian meteorologists and climatologists, it is the same as in the northern hemisphere.

Remember that the gathering of weather information is the most ancient and true international cooperation. Even during the times of world wars, countries cooperated to share they observations. Today it is the World Meteorological Organization (WMO), a division of the UN, that is in charge of gathering all data and redistribute it to all member countries. When those countries share climatic tables referring to the "winter," they all use the same definition.

Can my financial aid be split up into two quarters for winter and spring?

Sunday, June 6th, 2010

I only have financial aid left for the upcoming winter quarter and was planning on going full time in the winter. I need to take a class in the spring as well and was wondering if I could be able to get the financial aid split to cover part time for winter quarter and part time for spring instead of just full time for Winter. Any feedback from someone with experience in this would be appreciated. Thank you.

I’m assuming that you’re at the lifetime limit for the Pell since you’re only eligible to receive financial aid this winter. If that’s the case, no it cannot be split. However, if you receive a refund, you can save the money and use it for the spring quarter. If you haven’t reached your lifetime limit of federal stafford loans, you could still take out a student loan for the spring quarter.
