Does anyone know how to do this or a place that can do this?
We would like to crop and enlarge a picture of my brother in law to put on his headstone. Everytime we try to enlarge it, it comes out distorted. It's just a regular photo that was taken of him and two of his brothers.
If anyone knows how to do this, would you be willing to try it for me???
Thanks to anyone who can help!

If you HAD to right a book on what it meant to be an adult what would be the main responsibilities be that you attribute to adulthood.

Also, what about responsibilities pertaining to society?

Whenever I do a solo, I usually try to sing something sad and meaningful (like in the past I've done"Only Hope" by Mandy Moore/Jonathan Foreman, "Time After Time" by Eva Cassidy, and "For Good" from the musical 'Wicked'). I don't really want it to be so popular that people in the audience can sing it with me, but it doesn't have to be unheard of. My mother keeps telling me to sing something upbeat, but I'm not sure if I have the type of voice to pull that off. Any suggestions are welcome!! :)

Why is the sky blue? I mean if life happened by chance why is not the sky and ugly color? Just so happen its a pretty blue shade?

Why are planets round? Why not some ugly shapes if it happened by chance?

Why do people look good? Why are not we ugly if it is all chance?

Why does nothing ever happen to the Sun? Billions of year without a hitch? All my stuff I own breaks all the time.

Why does the Earth just happen to stay in orbit all the time? Nothing ever goes wrong with its orbit. More luck?

Why doesn't the Earth get hit by a giant asteroid? Nothing every happens that wipes us all out.

Why are trees animals and plants beautiful? Why not ugly color grass like a black color? Why not a beast looking animal with 5 heads?

Im just trying to show that it seems since I was a kid that someone is in control here and made it all.
Comments?

For school I'm writing a five chapter book (first two paragraphs below) about an Amer-Asian girl and I need input and history. any books or sites or info you can offer? thanks!


"Please give me a name."

This might work. The nameless girl had suffered a lot. She was an Amer-Asion living on the streets of Korea. Being a homeless orphan was bad. Being Amer-Asian in Korea was worse. But being nameless was worst.

Her father had taught her English. She remembered him. Laughing blue eyes, an odd spattering of brownish-orange polka dots on his face, and long limbs. She remembered watching the sky swirl by as he whiled her around, then her was face smashed against his no-longer-crisp uniform in a hug. Then her feet were on the ground again and she watched his long legs walk away. He left with her that memory, brief knowledge of the Enlglish language, and the feeling that life was good and she belonged to a world made fo a freckled soldier and herself with a beautiful sky

I can act, sing, dance and play the violin. She can do pretty much all of those things except the violin part, but she needs a bit more time learning routines, songs, and lines. The event is on Wednesday, and we were thinking of doing a dance routine or two with some other girls that can also do those things (except the violin), but there's already a cheer squad. I really want to do something, and she does as well, and I don't think it would be very fair if we let the others girls down by saying they won't be involved. Are there things that you guys can think of that might be appropriate for us to do? Please, serious answers only.
