Anyone study philosophy?
What's it like?
What do you do exactly?
And saying "you study philosophy" doesn't really answer the question.
Just wondering.
Thank you.

I read some online short stories by a male author a few years ago, but the website has disappeared since then.

The first was a twist on the Santa Claus myth, in which St. Nick is portrayed as a vampiric figure. The main character and his companion try to hunt Santa Claus and stake him; the companion is bitten, though, and begins to grow a beard, get fat, etc. and the main character is forced to kill him.

I think the other one was called "Patches" or "Stitches" or something like that, and it was about a hospital patient who kept losing body parts, until he was eventually just a head.

And the final story depicted an imaginary, childish dream world made of candy and gumdrops, and cloying things like that. This world was slowly fusing with the real world, and eventually became bombed with real nuclear bombs.

The same person wrote all three stories (I think), so if anyone knows who he is, or where to find the stories, I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

Im looking to publish a fiction novel in a specific genre. I have already written the manuscript, I just want to know how I can complete my first step to publishing with a reputable agent that will find publishers interested in my genre of fiction. Any ideas? I googled, but it just seems unhelpful. Any ideas/ranges/ball park figures on costs?

Argument about God:

Pro: if God didnt exist there would no justice for good and evil after death and maybe there's no heaven. Also people have made Him such a big part of their lives for no reason.

Con: If God does existence we have less control over our destiny because God has plans for us, or that people are suffering so much even though there is an all good and all powerful God reigning over the universe.

sleeping on the tounge of the beast

my legs gone
my lungs slowly being crushed
I sleep waiting for death
on the tounge of the beast

eyes black as coal
its belly white as snow
I sleep waiting for death
on the tounge of the beast

a dead seagull rests near my shoulder
a hook pierces my eye
I sleep waiting for death
of the tounge of the beast

water in water out
I slide deeper into darkness
I sleep waiting for death
on the tounge of the beast

my air now gone
my time has come
as I slip from its tounge
into the darkess
I now sleep forever
In the great white beast

Can anyone please write me an example of a sonnet? Please something you wrote yourself because I've had enough of Shakespeare! LOL
You can also just write me an idea of what i can write my sonnet about. . .

it should have 3 quatrains (each quatrain has 4 lines)

In each quatrain, lines 1 + 3 rhyme with one ending word, and
lines 2 + 4 rhyme with a different ending word. (ababcdcdefefgg rhyme schem)

Also, each line has to have 10 syllables. . .

If you can help me. . . that would be GREAT!

^_^ thanks SO MUCH

f/32 is a larger aperture than f/16

f/11 lets in twice as much light as f/8 @ 1/125th second.


1/125th second is a shorter time than 1/60th second.


Changing your shutter speed one stop has the same effect on exposure as changing your aperture one stop.


“Relative aperture” is aperture in relation to focal length.


In terms of relative aperture, all f/16’s let in the same amount of light at a given shutter speed.


Going from f/8 to f/16 is an example of “stopping down”.


Going from a smaller relative aperture to a larger relative aperture is called “opening up”.


Stopping down two stops cuts the amount of light in half.


Exposer is a function of aperture and shutter speed.

if so, i was wondering how i should come up with a thesis for my dissertation. How do i think like that for an 8000 word essay? I have no clue where to start and how? I am a graphic design student so where should i look? What areas? advertising? I'll give an example as to what kind of things i should be thinking like i.e. how has the female form been used and what for? so it could include nude paintings to paintings of the female form to advertising etc and why and what products tehy are used for and how sex sells etc. So that's something someone doing. how do i think up a title in relation to the past developing to present. thanks.

There's a book that I've been searching for, for a long time. I seem to recall that there is a store that advertises that if you know the plot or the picture on the cover, etc., that they'll search for the book (for a fee) and if they find the book the fee is applied to the cost of the book and if they don't find the book the fee is refunded.
Anyone heard of such a thing?
The book was about a girl who was abducted by a cult. The father began investigating and found that the cult leader was an expert in astral projection. The father then goes to a master who teaches the father all about astral projection.
The father tracks the cult leader and in a very supernatural ending, he does an astral projection battle with the cult leader, where they both inhabit inanimate objects around them and use the inanimate objects to do physical battle. If one can cut the other's 'silver threat' that connects the astral self to the physical body, the physical body that has been cut off will die.

Name and main theme in a few words.

2007-03-14 12:22:34 · 7 answers · asked by Gustav 5 in Books & Authors

Rite here goes.

Its about somthing to do with poison in a pen. I know there are computers in it. And a scene where the main chracter is talking about a really serious disease with the doctors. Also i think that she has a t.v in her room that is an alarm clock, its futuristic so i think the tv is also her phone.
Also someone tells her to go away from wherever she is thats bad but she takes her car and does the complete opposite.

Please, if you know, or have an inclin, do tell me. Bits of this book keep spinning round my head. And i'm fed up of not knowing the whole story!!!!
