I recently found a book on sewn Smocking designs (didn't know this technique existed & have been trying to create something similar for a tanktop bodice)
:Question #1
Would the completed product be stretchy, or would it have no give? It appears in the examples that a smocked piece of material would stretch considerably, as it has lots of tight gathers...
Question #2:
Has anyone ever used this technique, & is it as difficult/time-consuming as it looks? The end result is lovely, but I really don't want it to take weeks to finish a small piece. Thanks!

Do you think that the mentality that ''black is less'' stuck? I am not saying that’s true because I believe it isn’t and I’m African American myself but at times, I really think about the way the community is. Why do black women wear weave that is the texture of a white woman's hair? We are not born with hair like that. Do we see white women walking around with afro-like pony tails and wigs? No. Afro's are beautiful. Why do we feed into the belief that ''good'' hair is straight hair?
Why do rappers make our community look bad by continuing to glamorize negative lifestyles and ideas? Why do allot (NOT all) of people in the community call other black people ‘’white’’ because they really appreciate school and/or because they speak proper English etc. but then turn around and talk about how great people like Oprah are...
Do we not expect much out of ourselves or what? Where else could this natural lack of self-esteem in allot of us be coming from?

The US Government: has military bases (violating the soveriegnty of other nations, making them our vassals), tortures and holds indefinitely for no apparent reason its own and others' citizens at Camp X-Ray. Has international institutions (IMF, WTO, World Bank, USAID) that work to harm the poor and prop up regimes that torture and murder their own citizens. Arrests people for showing up to a Bush rally wearing an antiwar t-shirt but protects pornography as "free speech". The last two elections were stolen.

WE have become the evil empire. Is it a situation of power corrupts? Are all countries THIS evil? Its happening here, people. Our democracy is whithering away and dying before our very eyes! Does it happen everywhere? Is there some kind of cycle where countries get hijacked by evil people and then everyone rises up to fight them and then the scum slowly rises to the top to begin the cycle anew?

I know the bible says that salvation isn't by works but where does it say that you have to understand that or that you can't add anything to faith alone in order to be saved? As long as the main focus of their faith is christ, then why would a technicality like believing they had to go to church as well as have faith make them unsaved. Unlike groups like JWs who deliberately pervert the scriptures and deny the divinity of christ all together, some people belive in jesus and are just confused about scripture because some parts are ambiguous as to what is required and while it is implied, the exact phrase salvation by faith alone isn't really used in the bible, so it gets interpreted as being saved by adding works to faith.

My bill is about $600, if I pay half of that ($300) for this billing period as my minimum and the other half as the new balance for next billing period, does that mean i will start getting interest charged to my card? I have been paying in full until now so I've never had this problem and I really don't want to have to start paying interest now. Any advice?

A dinner speaker was in such a hurry to get to his engagement that when he arrived and sat down at the head table, he suddenly realized that he had forgotten his false teeth. Turning to the man next to him, he said, "I forgot my teeth."
The man said, "No problem."
With that, he reached into his pocket and pulled out a pair of false teeth. "Try these," he said.
The speaker tried them. "Too loose," he said.
The man then said, "I have another pair... try these."
The speaker tried them and responded, "Too tight."
The man was not taken back at all. He then said, "I have one more pair of false teeth... try them."
The speaker said, "They fit perfectly."
With that he ate his meal and gave his address. After the dinner meeting was over, the speaker went over to thank the man who had helped him.
"I want to thank you for coming to my aid. Where is your office? I've been looking for a good dentist."
The man replied, "I'm not a dentist. I'm the local undertaker."

My last 2 questions had the term Fundy, which is short slang for Fundamentalist.
As with much of the English language slang dictates and changes word meanings. 20 years ago bad meant bad and now in many conversations it is used to mean something is good.
Since the 9/11 attacks and the word "Islam fundamenatlism" became a hot media word...the word findamentalist has since evolved to something more sinister, more like someone who is a zealot.
Often new definitions start out slang. Right now if you look up fundamentalist in the urban dictionary you get some rather negative definitions.
http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=fundamentalist
Which may not seem important now...but I think this is the start of a trend for future use of the word.
So what I am wondering is those who belong to a "Fundamentalist Church" do you think in the future the church will stray from that term (even though I know it has historical perspective) because it is becoming a negative word?

I'm going to audition next january, for several colleges/unis in America, and I need two classical and two contemporary monologues. (They also need to be contrasting, round the age from 18-30. and preferably not overdone).
I'm having a difficult time finding first of all where I can look for these monologues ('cause I can't read every play ever written!) and what would suit me, all I know is I need a dramatic and a comic monologue, something with a tough character and a soft/frail one.
If ANYONE has an idea that springs to mind. PLEASE let me know.
MY question is: could anyone suggest plays, and or where to easily find them. Thank you =)

Or are you going to pander to the loosing left and say happy holidays to cover all of the holidays that are in the December month.
Only a brainwashed political correct person would control your speach by require you to say Happy Holidays --before Christmas.
I have see WHITEY curl up and go doo-doo in his pants at the mere thought of being called a racist - and being linked to the KKK at the mere thought of saying a MERRY CHRISTMAS wish to another person.
So remember if someone says Happy Holidays ( BEFORE ) Christmas they are sheep controlled be the PC crowd.

Is there a way to change the way that folders are listed so that it is more like the way they are actually on the computer? (that is to say.. more like a windows explorer kind style of browsing). I have 1000s of photos and folders of photos, and I find the way folders are listed on picasa2 to be impossible to navigate. Also, is there a way to open a single photo in picasa2 by right-clicking on the file? At the moment the only way I have found to locate a single photo is to go into picasa2 and then go to 'file/add file' -- which will then let me browse using a normal folder system. Am I missing something?

I would like to know what is would be considered: You don't care for religion / but you aren't spritiual / you believe in God / but don't go to church / you don't worship him (meaning that you don't pray, go to church, deliver his word to others or anything like that) / you feel that all religion isn't worth the hype / you don't believe in heaven, hell, purgatory, paradise or anything like that...

What is that? Is that a common things that people believe? What would you call that?
