Why is everyone freaking out about December 21st, 2012?
I had someone telling me how he thinks the world will end in 2012 because the Mayans predicted it. I told him the Mayans said nothing about the world ending in their calenders and they simply just stopped making calenders because their civlization ended. It's not like they said "On December 21st, 2012, the world will end." Their descriptions are very vague and could fit virtually any event. It reminds me of Nostradamus. And how many times have we had these "end of the world" theories? Too many. December 21st is nothing more than the end to a period of time on the Mayan calender. I have even heard experts on the Mayan calender saying they don't believe anything will happen, either.

A friend and I were discussing painters, and she referred to an artist who, after his wife had died, essentially went mad and began painting nothing but redheaded women. She couldn't recall his name. Sounds to me like an amalgam of several different painters. Googling didn't get me far.

In my forest of a life, there are thick trees that block my path; so I find a way by climbing over the thick bushes and using the branches as a way to catch my balance. There were times I had to dig up under the trees roots, just as hard as climbing the trees, but never did I stop. No. I was determined to make my way through this forest of obstacle and hardship. My mind was made up to long ago to fight my way out of this thick and covered forest because I seen a light. A bight light that not so many see. Shining as bright as the star that laid over Jesus. That light captured my eyes and showed me a heart filled world. And I know it is there right at the end of this forest. My life. Your life. Our life as people. Everyone’s life as children of God. Even thought I have years before I reach the end of this forest, if I ever do. I have declared that I will make it make it. For that light is the eyes of my creator telling me to live truthful in this world and that if I stay true I will eventually have peace.

I am currently working on a research paper for my history class. I would really like a nice cover page, and i was wondering if anyone had any idea of where to find a picture of a medieval bow/arrows. What i am really looking for (if possible) would be a picture of someone shooting flaming arrows, raining arrows, etc.

Our Mommy Tiger

Our mom is looks beautiful and sleek,
but she is actually quite powerful,
and certainly not weak.
Laying in the grass,
for an afternoon snooze,
All of a sudden, up and about,
there's a bug on her back, and on for a cruise.
There's a lion in site!
Run! Run! Run!
Us cubs are hiding, well, in fright...
The danger's gone by.
Wait! Something looks as big as a couch...
Our mom has scented something.
We're all down in a crouch.
You can see a really big thing,
and our mom crouches forward,
and she springs on a prey!
It was an antelope, and it was yummy!
We eat a lot, in a whole day,
and a hour later,
we go for a swim.
We get splashed and soaked all over!
Later on, we jump on a low tree limb,
and then we go out exploring!
Evening has come,
so it's time for one last meal.
We prowl after a deer, and then we pounce,
without even a squeal.
Now we're exhausted and tired,
after a long day's play.
We walk back home,
onto our beds to fall away,
into welcoming dreams...
That we'll be

What would have been the real loss if the South ceded, if the reason was economic, why couldn't they trade like other countries.

I had an accident at work which lead to me currently being off work (and have been for weeks) and going to a physiotherapist. Thing is i damaged my back and now i cant life things i could lift normally (e.g a bag containing an Xbox 360, games and 2 controllers). My dream is to be a musician and to tour all over the country, maybe even the world. I play bass guitar and i have been told i am quite talented at it. I want to further my playing from a random get together with friends to a successful band.

With my back being as it is...have i lost the chance to live my dream?

Thank you to everyone who answers!
