When I feel scared, it's probably because I'm leaving my comfort zone. If my comfort zone is staying sheltered away from the world, then leaving my comfort zone must mean that I'm putting myself back out there.

Therefore, does feeling fear actually mean that I'm doing the right thing and progressing?

I have recently read Black Boy out of free choice for an English porject. However, the book I have recieved only contained PART I, and I believed that was the whole book itself. However, I just figured out "Black Boy" has a PART II, a part which was never in my copy of the book. Has this ever happened to anybody else? Is there a good explanation on this phenomena? Maybe PART II was published afterwards? Anyone have any ideas, or perhaps there is no PART II. Sparknotes says PART II is on Richard's time with the Communist PArt. Is that in the original version of the book?

I want to get into acting and I was just wondering do you have to pay for an agent or do they just take a cut of your paycheck?

I dont believe i will ever give up my principles, as they seem to come too naturally to me. However i have always been cynical as to my actual reasons for acting morally. I have no religious belief, or any spiritual beliefs at all, and i cannot agree that it is simply easier to get on in society if you're 'nice'. Why should i not just give up and do whatever i want, regardless of right and wrong?

I have a painting done on canvas circa 1960. It lived in a smoker's home and is very yellow as a result. I need to clean it safely. Any ideas?

Do you sometimes look forward to solutions to your problems in your dreams? Do you expect dream to provide you with solutions to problems that you are facing in life that are hard to tackle with your full consciousness and your subconscious kicks in and presents you with at least some hints?

I've had few occasions where I've got hints in dreams to certain issues I was facing. What are your thoughts?

Hi to all, :) I need to get a copy of the last rites for my friends mom,as she needs to give last rites to a family friend tomorrow. I have google searched and gotten some feed back. Mostly,that it no longer is called the last rites but it is the annointing of the sick,which can be given when the person that is ill or dying is still alive. However, as far as what the actual last rites may contain,Does anyone have any information?...please let me know...thanks :)

Maybe you could help me with a big problem. I can't find proof that my grandmother Delores Taflinger was married to a Fay D. Amick b.1910 in Marysville, Indiana. BUT I know that I think two of their kids are Marilyn Joan Amick, and Mary Josephine Amick -2nd child) I'm wondering if you could help. I get Fays name, but her name isn't linked up with his. This is my big problem, proof. I'm hoping you can help. I can't get help from the familyh because we are not on speaking terms. (My grandmother hasn't seen me since I was three and now I'm almost 17) I really want to know about that side of the family and it's very hard to find it. Hoping you can help

In the late 1940's or 50's, a black/white photo of a young boy wearing a cap and clutching a new pair of shoes was shown in a pictorial magazine. The boy's head was thrown back and his eyes were shut, in obvious delight in having shoes. I would really like to know where this photo could be viewed.

If i take a picture with this camera zoomed out 100% - it is crisp and great. But when I zoom in - even just a little - it is very very blurry.

Also, when there is low light - it is ALWAYS blurry and grainy.

I dont want to use a flash in these cases because I am trying to get the "warmth" of the lighting.

A flash makes it too harsh of a picture.

I am using a SanDisk 512 MB card. The lense is clean.

What am I doing wrong? HELP!!!

Photons of light are continuously hitting the retina which stimmulates electrical impulses to pass to numerous parts of the brain, undergo numerous process of decoding the impulses, putting definition and meaning to each experience, edits irrelivant information and co-ordinates all this information to synchronize with other sensory information. To have a seamless vision with no gaps this process must surley occur faster than the speed of light otherwise there would be a gap in vision between one lot of photons hitting the retina and the next photon hitting the retina that can be processed by the brain. When things travell at the speed of light doesn't something happed to time?? Could this be a reason for premonitions occuring??

Jesus and Ghandi advocated thought control (your own thoughts!) as a way to stop the immoral at the source, but I personally cannot manage to practice this principle, even though I really would like to.

...............Because they need specific people for the roles...judging by how they look. And, there aren't very many black, asian, indian roles in a lot of plays here..so even if you're excellent in EVERY way except you're the wrong skin color, you wouldn't be cast.
Isn't this discriminating?
