I have just begun to play the drums for my garage band, and I don't have room for a drum set anywhere in my flat, nor can I afford a halfway-decent one. I have no idea how or where I will practice, or how I would even get my drum set to a gig. Do most of these places have house drums, or is it just a minority?

I'm sure everyone who has read Harry Potter has read about a character and was like 'Woah, I remind myself alot of him/her!'

That ever happen to you? If so, what character do you remind yourself of?

Me? - Ehm..haha. Well for starters Hermione. She's like the only girl of the gang. And she only seems to have like one 'girl' friend, Ginny. and I myself find myself hanging out without of guys. Also just like Hermione I'm really smart...not to brag but by 4th grade I had the reading level of a college kid.
Also Luna Lovegood. I find myself to be a bit strange every now then...=b No, I dont read magazines upside down...=b But sometimes I will wear odd clothes and say odd random things.
But all in all I find myself to resemble Tonks. I'm alwasy running around doing something for someone...and I'm clumsy...haha. I'm always dropping something or breaking something.
I also look alot like the girl who plays Tonks...except I have blondish brown hair...not pinkish. =b

You?

Okay so ive been on a bad luck/ mal-informed streak of taking bad photos of my friend. Its really my fault and I really want to capture a nice photo for her. This will be the fourth time around, and this time, a lot of things were taken into consideration, from lighting down to what was more flattering (her clothes) to the background, since we were limited to resources. I tried (and hopefully at least sort of got the idea) of the composition key but some photos just I guess fell into those “dead” zones horizontally and vertically. I have been reading/learning(and hopefully showing growth) about photography, I’ll never give up, but I would like some(at left if any) progression in my photos. (coninue onto the details section please)

Is there any great influential books should I read? I want to read something like The Prince by Machiavelli. I'm interested in any books about anti-semitism, holocaust, genocides, conspiracy, and stuff like that.

Any suggestion?

And anyone knows about "The Protocols of the Elders of Zion"? What do you think about that book?

Today technology is every where, fruit of the genius mind of the past who help asemble it.But why we don't seam to produce more man like Einstein,Newton, Copernicus,Pascal,Galileo.

We will take the example of European kids, since the genius noted above, mostly come from Europe. European kids of today are taller, eat better than kids of the time of Newton, so why can't we have more people of the stature of Einstein.

In fact Newton was a premature baby who weight very little at birth.Einsteins family suffer from a form of autism and one of his son didn;t survive to adult age.

These days Human Life is treated more importantly than ever. Heavy Health & Safety laws, loads of do`s and don`ts. They tell us
Dont drink
Dont smoke
Dont drive fast or without a seatbelt or use a mobile phone
and dont hold the mobile near your head too long.
Dont eat burgers chips, sugar or too much salt.. The list goes on. Yet......
I feel as though because of this, my life feels totally un-important. It seems based around work, broadband and satalite TV.. Text voting talent shows and buying ringtones.
Now its dangerous to fly away on holiday or go to a Charity Gig at Wembly.
So if I died tomorrow I don`t really think i`d miss that much. Therefore the question is -
Has Humans high status of life made human life less important than ever??
