Arts & Humanities - 25 July 2007

I want to get portraits done this Saturday for my son's 2nd birthday, but he cannot hold his head up, sit up, or smile. I'll be lucky enough just to keep him awake for the photos.

I just wondered if any of you could put your thinking caps on and give me good ideas of props/backgrounds/poses I can use. I will need to sit him up on something probably. He cannot lift his head up when he is on his tummy, so probably can't do that pose unless we happen to get really lucky.

I really want something cute and memorable. I just have no clue what to do.

It can mean many different things and on many different levels. If you could create prosperity with a few shakes of a magic wand, what would you create in your world?

I just finished it now and I must say, it was wonderful. My favorite part of the whole book was the epilogue. It was very sweet. Who all died, though? My mom keeps asking me "Who's died so far?" (she doesn't read the books. She just mooches off of me for information. xDD) and I want a list of all who died. Thank youuu.

I found that Fred Weasley's death was one of the most unfair and totally unessisary(sp?). He and George are best mates and you can't imagen one without the other. I really want to also hear your opinions on how George copes with his loss.

I am a tribal fusion bellydancer. In my training I have learned several different kinds of turns. Including types influenced by flamenco, algerian/moroccan/north african dance, american tribal bellydance (ats) and katahk (classical indian). I have had previous training in ballet/classical style turns (very little).

I pride myself in my different kinds of turns and how many and how fast I can do them during dancing-but i have one problem. I always, always get super nauseous and dizzy after.

I would like to start improving my banjara style barrel turns, which im sure will make me even MORE dizzy after.
How do I not only use technique to help this problem, but is there anything I can eat or drink before I dance to help?

why not believe in reincarnation, or at least a continuance of life? since your body does not dissapear or turn into nothing after it dies, but rather becomes part of the ever-continuous cycle of nature, why not believe that your consciousness does the same?

I'm thinking it was because Snape was SO significant to the story of Harry Potter. The sixth book was named entirely after him!

What do you think?

(A diplomat of Germany) Arthur von Zimmerman's letter concerned an alliance with Mexico and submarine warfare with the United States. Any research sites with the details of this event would be helpful to my research.

On page 474 of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, is "Wrested" a word, or is it a typo? It's near the top, where it says "He leapt over an armchair and wrested the three wands from Draco's grip..." Thanks!
