Arts & Humanities - 6 August 2007

I have to have an essay written concerning the political, economical, social, and cultural aspects of the book [that is due in 6 hours]. Does anyone know what I could put for examples relating to those topics?

Any help would be excellent. Thanks.

Also, can anyone answer these?
How does the author express concerns or give enlightenment?
Suggestions for the people of the U.S.
What was learned about the author/ time period?
Insight gained?

Thanks again.

okay so I've read lots of the teen fantasy books at my library and I want more!

the typical kind I like is main characters either a boy, or a boy and a girl.

i like the sort of book where chraracter(s) go up against impossible odds and win and get the girl. I know its stereotypical of fantasy but I'm a sucker for it.

some of what I'm looking for to give you and idea are books like:
the belgariad series
the mallorean series
keys to the kingdom
birdwing
the iron ring
the bartimaues trilogy
wereling trilogy
dune series
HP books
the strongbow saga
rangers apprentice series
wabi
dusk

books like that. so if you could give me a big long list, I would really appreciate it!

thanks so much! -Daniel

the National Congress of American Indians (NCAI), and the National Indian Gaming Association (NIGA), are helping Native Americans to advance? Explain your answer. If anything, what are organizations like these doing to mitigate tribal poverty, and encourage prosperity?

I will protect you from the night
but you must sheild me from the light
if you refuse Darks evil goal
ill guard my blood, ill guard your soul

the light will keep dark far away
to keep you safe i too must stay
ill stay here, i will play my role
ill guard my blood, ill guard your soul

i will hold him off, run my lass
ill stay back and not let him pass
since you didnt let him take control
ill guard my blood, ill guard your soul

my love walks and talks around free
you hear it, feel it, unlike me
Cause your pretty as a foal
ill guard my blood, ill guard your soul

i wont let you hurt, fail, or fall
but it has ended this forestall
he's coming but as black is coal
ill guard my blood, ill guard your soul

you still dont run, but you dont know
youv'e never seen your own lights glow
so you wont be claimed like a roll
illl guard my blood, ill guard your soul

You will need to figure out 3 numbers. The topic of the code numbers is American History. The first #: In the painting by John Trumble of the Declaration of Independence being presented, how many letters are there in the full name of the man 2 people to the right of Thomas Jefferson? The second #: Add the month, day, and year numbers together of Lincoln's death. The third #: How many men who signed the Declaration of Independence were Freemasons? Please only write the three code numbers as the answer with a "-" in between each significant letter. Good luck.

I heard something about not allowing smoking in movies anymore, and I'm wondering if this also applies to books.

My protagonist is a smoker. He doesn't glorify it or make it seem 'cool'. He's trying to quit, but it's easier said than done.

A few weeks ago Barbizon modeling/acting had a little stand in the mall. I signed up for a free shoot and make-up kit. Tonight they called and invited me to this info meeting/audition. I am not sure if I should go. I wanted to know if I could just do modeling wiht them, and if you have to pay and go to the school.

I have an audition for Fiddler on the Roof next week. I'm 28 and a female with blonde hair, hazel eyes, 5'5 and medium built. I want the role of fruma sarah. The director doesn't like me and after being cast in one of her shows, she refuses to cast me i any others. I was told she hinks i make other actors uncomfortable. I don't mean to, but i have bipolar disorder so maybe that's it. How can i let her see past her judgments and give me a part this time?

I want to be a writer of novels and short stories and honestly can't see myself doing anything else. It has been that way since I was seven. I'm planning to begin sending out my first novel to agencies by the end of 10th grade. I promised myself that if I don't get any proposals, by the first semester of 11th grade, I'll consider college.
Good idea?
