Arts & Humanities - 17 October 2006

I have a problem with this happening. Its not that only 1 ancient wonder is left and that the others aren't there. Im fine with making a new list but some of the structures you can vote for on www.new7wonders.com aren't really that acient and its suppused to be the 7 wonders of the ANCIENT world. Some of the newer things are like the Sydney opera house, Eiffel Tower, statue of Liberty, Neuschwanstein Castle, Christ the Redeemer, the Hagia Sophia (i understand its old but i dont think it anywhere near ancient), I wouldn't really count the Taj Mahal either or the Kremlin.

Anicent History (as defined by Wikipedia) is the study of significant cultural and political events from the beginning of human history until the Early Middle Ages. (So i guess the Hagia Sophia could work).

I think if they want to make an honest and truthful new list of seven SURVIVING ANCIENT wonders then they need to refine the choices.

Please tell me what you think of this and go ahead and vote.

I have a painting idea that would require my acrylics (it's all I have, and I have TONS) - to be thick enough to paint on with a knife. I know there's products out there, gels etc. to use for this purpose, but I don't have the 10-15$ to obtain these products. Are there cheaper alternatives? ie. house hold products? I was thinking something like toothpaste maybe, but haven't tried it yet.

Based on that poem, why are the angels envious of Edgar Allen Poe and his love, Annabell Lee? Could they even be envious? Really think on it, and give your interpretation.
