I cannot figure out the extended methaphor in this passage.

Now I am alone.
O, what a rogue and peasant slave am I!
Is it not monstrous that this player here,
But in a fiction, in a dream of passion,
Could force his soul so to his own conceit
That from her working all his visage wann'd,
Tears in his eyes, distraction in's aspect,
A broken voice, and his whole function suiting
With forms to his conceit? and all for nothing!
For Hecuba!
What's Hecuba to him, or he to Hecuba,
That he should weep for her? What would he do,
Had he the motive and the cue for passion
That I have? He would drown the stage with tears
And cleave the general ear with horrid speech,
Make mad the guilty and appal the free,
Confound the ignorant, and amaze indeed
The very faculties of eyes and ears. Yet I,
A dull and muddy-mettled rascal, peak,
Like John-a-dreams, unpregnant of my cause,

If i could get any clues or any help i would greatly appreciate it ! Thanks

When I was little my so called friend deared me to ride my bike down the hill blinde folded. So I did. It was scary, but when I got all the way down I my face slamed into this rock wall. My tooth fell out, and I got an scar on my chin. I gotta say that was the most dangerous thing I done. But I survived it, thank God. Thank God I wasn't truly injured.

I was driving home from the gym yesterday and it hit me. Creation of the Universe. Imagine totally completely nothing. Absolutely nothing.
The Big Bang wouldn't have happened if there was nothing.

There just had to be something. I'v eheard about the theory of their being slightly more matter than anti-matter. However, if there was completely nothing in the first instance then this disproves this theory. Unless their are an infinitive number of dimensions that exist. A fine balance of matter in each dimension. New dimensions being created.

Therefore my theory is that the Universe was never created. It was the result of an overspill of matter from another dimension that could be contained no longer. I think the Universe could not have been created and that it can never be destroyed. Like the infiniteness of a circles perimeter.

I'm 14 this year and I'm in my school choir. Ok so I'm currently in tenor but I can't reach even beyond an E which is pathetic for a tenor. And I can't join bass because I can't even go below a B.
So basically I have a pathetic voice range of about 1 octave and a few notes (excluding falsetto). Even worse, my voice range has caused me to be excluded in school competitions such as SYF or overseas trips.
Anyone has any advice on how to expand my vocal range without hurting my vocal chords?

Please write a short western-style story involving "lonely / alone", "cigarette", "hot noon" (you can make it "high" too - kind regards to Gary Cooper) and, somehow unavoidable given the context, "whiskey-smelling breath".
Not necessarily more than (approx) 7-8-9 lines in the compose box.
Please, don't just build up a sentence / some sentences with those expressions, try to make it coherent, in the form of a story (or a fragment of a story). The best one will be the most melancholical or funny one. You can even make it western-style in a SF context - you can do lots of things, so let it flow.
(sigh - if I could only answer my own questions...)

I'm doing a personal research on all the wars on earth (from 800AD until 2007). All the wars, from Djingis khan .... until last 100 years including S/N Korean, Russian revolutions, Balkans, World Wars, Civilian wars, African wars...etc.

Does someone know where online can I find those informations, and it would be great if there are approximate victims of those wars.



Thanks!
