Why should I like to live in a world where there are no superheroes, supervillains, superpowers, aliens, ghosts, alchemy, magic, talking animals, interplanetary, intergalactic or interdimensional travel, artificial intelligence, flying cars, elementals, teleporters, clones, learning shortcuts, non-human sentient races or resurrections?

I visited the museum yesterday, and did not write down the name of this artist; now I can't find him. As you walk into "The Art & Artifice of Science" exhibition there is a digital video, 5 minutes in length, the evolution from fish to man. Does anybody know who did this?

an image can be either real or virtual, but not both at the same time. in games with ''virtual reality'', computer-controlled images appear to be real. do you think ''virtual reality'' is a good name for images? explain why or why not .

I was expecting Life of Pi to be great and it was awful. The same with White Teeth. The World according to Garp was so bad I had to give up on it.

I have yet to read a book that was hilarious, and would genuinely like to. Any recommendations on good reads genuinely appreciated.

I am 15 years old and I lived in Los Angeles, California. I'm a good student, and very talented (not buffing) in singing both oldies and modern style. Especially the 60s and the 70s. Also Elvis Presley and his fascinating dance styles.
Its spring break now and I want to work for my parents and for my education. Therefore, I'm trying to find a job as a singer in the family restaurant or any entertainment places that fit for the kid in my age.
Place advise me some family restaurant that's looking for a singer or open for an auditions, so I could go for a try out. Please list more than one incase, and no farter than Long Beach or Orange Country.

Thank you

My father is 79 years old and when he tries to write his name his hand shakes. He has to use his other hand to hold his good hand steady. I was wondering if anyone has seen any special writing tools specifically used for people with nerve damage in their hands.

I am doing a research paper on propaganda posters for my Warfare in Western Civilization class and am having trouble finding good sources about it...any help I could get would be great. I am specifically looking for the history of propaganda posters (in wartime) only, not propaganda in general. Also information on propaganda posters in other countries and wars other thatn WWI and WWII. Please do not send me wikipedia as I have all of that information already.Thanks.
