I AM 13, but that's not stopping me from writing this, because I have no intention to even attempt publishing it nor showing/telling anyone about it. I'm doing it for me, so I don't need anyone telling me that I'm too young. I have an idea, and I know it's not very good, but I won't go into much detail. The idea's been growing for years and I can't let it go!

What I'm stuck on is the following... My main character is going to die near the beggining, but I don't know how. He's very courageous so I'm thinking that should be how he dies. However, while he is dying I want his friend, Emily, to walk in and see him. So where and how could that happen?

After this happens, this is where my idea of the afterlife comes into play...

It's very important that his death makes a statement about his personality, because he has always been withdrawn and I want his courage to somewhat shine through in the end.

I'd do this myself...but I'm stuck!

THANK YOU!!! :)

Leviticus 25:1 The LORD said to Moses on Mount Sinai,

44 " 'Your male and female slaves are to come from the nations around you; from them you may buy slaves. 45 You may also buy some of the temporary residents living among you and members of their clans born in your country, and they will become your property. 46 You can will them to your children as inherited property and can make them slaves for life,

Exodus 20 gives different rules for Hebrew slaves than the passage above, stating Hebrew slaves were freed in 6 years, rather than owned for life and willed to descendants, proving Jehovah to be racist, since whether you were a slave for life or not was dependent on race. Exodus 21:20 tells us we can beat our slaves without penalty, provided they don't die from the beating within a day or two. In the New Testament, Paul goes so far as to tell a slave who ran away to go back to his master, while Jesus never once spoke out against slavery at all! Is it moral to condone slavery?

This rose was introduced in the 1980's by Harkness Roses in the UK. I would like to purchase this plant from a UK grower, but the only grower seems to be in Canada (Harkness do not grow it any more). Does anyone know a UK grower still stocking the plant? Alternitively, if you purchased this plant in the past, Peter Beale's roses in Attleborough could grow a section from a cutting for me if you are willing to let a little 'wood' with buds go. If you would do this I would be eternally grateful. :0)
Thanks!

My boyfriend and his best friend just moved into a house together. I wanted to get them a house warming gift. But I didn't want to get them girly stuff, since I am a girl and usually tend to shop in a woman's mindset. I want to get them something that is manly yet decorative and homey for their bachelor pad. Have any ideas?

Describe in your own words what the definition of ugly is to you.
Mine: When I look at people I don't think anyone is ugly in how they look. I see ugliness in how someone acts, things they do or say.

and by the way, that phrase "butt ugly" doesn't make sense to me, I have seen some really cute butt's!! lol

WHy does mary apear at fatima and numerous other siteings regualartly around the world and say half truths that are not in the Bible. She says she is the co-redemter. The Bible states that there is only one redemer Jesus. Are these apparitions from the false? The Bible says the devil can appear as an angel of light.

Factor the polynomial completely. If the polynomial cannot be factored, write prime.
x^2 + 30x + 225

(x + 15)^2
(x + 15)(x - 15)
(x - 15)^2
prime



Problem 2

Factor the polynomial completely. If the polynomial cannot be factored, write prime.
18y^2 + 81y - 45

(18y - 9)(y + 5)
9(2y - 1)(y + 5)
9(2y + 1)(y - 5)
prime

I think it came out beginning of this year of end of last year. It was set during the American Revolution times where everyone had white wigs. Probably around 1700's. And they quoted the declaration of independence and how people are equal. And there was this blind man in it. Does anyone remember seeing the trailer? I can't figure out the title.
