My 4-H group will be putting on a play, and I have to find one for them to perform. I have a good idea, though. I want to take some stories by Brothers Grimm and Hans Christian Andersen, and make them into a series of short plays. But where do I find these stories in play format?

Please give me a direct link, if you can.

.......am I a butterfly dreaming I'm a man?

Quote from some ancient chinese philosopher.

What do you think? Is what appears to be the waking life the real one, or is the dream life?

I must say, my dream life is much more interesting than my real life....I can fly/be anything I want/go out with Prince Charles (please don't ask me where *that* one came from!)...../go to amazing places and do amazing things.

Waking life is so much more prosaic.

Hindu dominated India was mostly ruled by Muslim rulers in middle ages.

Aurangzeb was remarkably pious and zealous. He abandoned the religious tolerance of his predecessors. During his reign, many Hindu temples were destroyed, and Hindus were converted to Islam, both by inducement and by force. Resentment grew amongst the Hindus. These feelings would lead to open political and military rebellion, which eventually caused the collapse of Mughal empire .
In the early 1700s, Hindu revolts and a breakdown in law and order ended the last Muslim empire in India. After that, Hindus started joining the armies of East Indian company.They were loyal and brave fighters. By 1856, the company employed 300,000 native Indian troops. Three-fourths of the sepoys were Hindus.The sepoys had a reputation as fierce fighters. The Hindu sepoys carefully observed their duty to their caste and religion.

Eventually Hindus joined the Sepoy mutiny against British because of there irrespect to Indians.

Don't you think you could benefit society more by becoming something valuable, like a doctor, and treating numerious patients....rather than....selling all that you have and moving to the streets? All respect for him for what he intended, but love is sometimes miscalculated. Take a "bum" for example. By giving money to the "bum", you are positively reinforcing his behavior. By not giving him money, you are teaching him and future generations of bums to survive (i.e., become more physically and mentally fit). Is it true love to think about the immediate gratification of one person or to think about the long-term survival of many people? I don't know for sure and that's why I am asking the question.

Happy New Year everyone!

There's a particular song I like to sing quite a lot, and I recently found the sheet music for it. Just for reference, what vocal range was this written for? Here's the music (without text as the lyrics were originally in Japanese), in PDF format:

and the original opening from which it was transcribed, performed by Akemi Sato:

I sing this much lower than she does, but it's a great song and I have no trouble with it. Thanks so much!

Yes, another literature studies question since I'm not doing very well with this essay, I can desribe the characters fair enough it's just Maupassant, his interests and information on French Naturalism that is evading me. It's vexes me terribly, I'm so very disorientated. Ah well...
