Some art teachers say that once you do a certain amount of drawings, you stop doing bad one's and start to consistently draw well. In sports they say if you practice it for 10,000 hours you will have mastered the sport. I know everyone is different, but for the majority there is a certain turning point in an activity where everyone becomes good.

So I want to know what is the general amount of time or drawings it takes to draw well.

What is your ultimate goal in life? and Why?
-Consider this question with your somehow knowing that there is no afterlife. This is it-
(below are possible choices)

a) the accumulation of wealth and power
b) a healthy, "normal" family
c) fame or prestige, either locally, nationally, or globally
d) self-realization/actualization (as one with the universe)
e) a connection to your spiritual intuition (or divine guide)
f) the knowledge of a truth (besides the truth that there is only certainty in uncertainty)
g) explain a different choice

And WHY did you choose this? What do you believe makes this most important?

Instead of matter being the ground of all being, it is consciousness. And rather than each individual possessing a consciousness, there is one unitary consciousness. Your classical mode of brain is not conditioned falsly in that you do not recognize the world as matter and can choose from a vast potentia of possible realities.
Your quantum mode of brain is going to collapse a possiblity and thus create a reality of whatever you choose.

What do you see there? Or what is happening?

How many Tutsi people died?
Hutus were targeting all Tutsis, but why did they focus a lot of attention on the Tutsi children?
What was meant in the statement: "If people see this footage,they'll go, 'Oh My God! , Thats horrible!' then go on eating their dinner."?

Fedewa, or Vedua, or de Vedua...

Where does this family orignate from. One source claims one, so possibly all his ancestors, were born in Tiranoo, Lombardy. Oddly enough though, I was always led to believe the family came from the German village of Lagenford, which is what we thought before finding new information. Apparently the name Fedewa, was not only Vedua at one point but was also de Vedua based on the earliest source I can find. What confuses me is the French sound to the name, and the fact that all of these men had blatantly German names like Jacob and Anton.



The name changed from de Vedua to Vedua sometime around 1720 apparentyly. It than changed to Fedewa sometime around the 1850's following immigration to America. Does anyone know any information about any of the three versions of the surname I listed.

To keep gold in the United States, the Federal Banks again raised interest rates. What was the result?
