Arts & Humanities - 11 December 2006

A motto at our school is "Make it a great day, or not, the choice is yours" I disagree with this statement because whether or not the day turns out great is often times not up to you. So this leads to other things, is your life preset or do you make it. Are there certain things in your life that are out of your control?
And for people of religion, if God knows the future, then how are we supposed to make a choice that has already been made? Is that freedom of Choice?
I know the answers but I would like to observe the input from various people with differing ideas. Answer with details please!

The plot centers around three friends (two boys one girl) who have to put up with the annoying little brother of one of the boys. The older brother and his two friends try to scare the little brother by telling scary tales. In the end, the little brother scares them all with his "scary tale" during a night in the woods. It's a beginner's book, c. 1987?

I don't know if he's 15 or 16 years old? Also as he appears in some other of J D Salinger's works, does his age differ between books?

The 20th century opens with large, monolithic empires carving up the world for economic gain and closes with the ethnic violence, genocide and terrorism carried out by groups of people against other groups of people. Technology and economics provided fuel that drove politics and social movements of the 20th Century, laying the groundwork for the world we live in today.

Some argue that more than any other century, the 20th century was driven by charismatic personalities. Of all of it, which do you think were the 5 most influential events, experiences, and/or people that shaped the 20th century and helped create the world we live in today? Explain

I thought it was going to be a comedy but I found it disturbing if not depressing? Is that what it was supposed to do or did people find it funny?

Hi,

All the portrait studios I called will need 10 days to deliver the holiday cards. That's too late for me. I am thinking to take the photo at home and add a background to the photo by myself.

I would like to know what software to use and where to find backgrounds.

In addition, is professional service available online where I can email them the photo and they add the background for me?

Thank you very much!
