In example, something along the lines of "The Phantom of the Opera," and "Hunchback of Notre Dame." I just love stories like that! Any other good ones anyone can recommend to me?

I need to meet with a peson who has seen me before but only vaguely and in partial darkness. While I dont think she'd recognize me, I want to do some minor adjustments to my face temporarily. Any tips?

Humans observe their surroundings and make conclusions about physical laws.

As such, without the laws of physics we cannot make distinct generalizations and would have to constantly renew our data because of the non stability of things.

Does the existence of a stable framework, that governs all living things, i.e. a set of laws for existence, prove the existence of an awareness that has created the laws in the first place?

After seeing the advertisments for the Bodyworlds exhibits, I was reminded of a French (I believe) physician who first created these types of perserved bodies in the 1700s or 1800s.

There have been several segments concerning him on the Discovery channel and the History Channel over the years. But for the life of me, I cannot remember his name, nor can I find any information on him. Can anyone help me with this? His works are displayed in a museum in France, I believe, and include one in particular called something along the lines of the Horseman of the Apocalypse.

Not being able to remeber his name is driving me nuts. Help me out, please!

It's an excellen book!
Anyone read it? I loved it, just want to know if anyone else has and what their opinion of the series is thus far.
And if you've read as far as the most recent book, "Meeting at Corvalis", do you think there will be a 4th book?

I'm not talking about Jesus or some other religion...But more on the nature of reality. Like the movie "What The BLEEP do We Know?"
or "The Secret".....Metaphysics, Matrix,...etc.

we know some of them, the rign, the pendant, the diary... i have a few theories for the rest, the tea cups from hufflepuff i believe, something from gryffindor, nyguinni voldomorts snake... and the last one i think is the most interesting... harry's scar.... if you think about the prophecy neither can remain while the other exists, i think and it is sad cause i hope it isn't true... harry will destroy all of the other horcrux's but to finally beat voldomort, harry will have to destroy the scar...basically himself... which makes you ponder the prophecy... how can he exist if he has to kill himself to destroy the scar... and anyone else think the new headmaster is going to be albus dumbledore's brother aberforth?

I just started playing the trumpet a few months ago and right now I can't play very loudly. My fortissimo sounds like a mezzo piano and my forte fortissimo sounds like a mezzo Forte. Are there any excercises that can help me increase my volume? I desperately need to increase it because half of the trumpets in the school band are graduating at the end of this school year. As for the second question it's just a simple yes or no question I just need reassurance on this one point. As you develop the umbeture(spelling?) your range increases, right?
