Arts & Humanities - 30 August 2007

I know that a person's "shooting" situation determines the camera and lens combo needed. The problem is that I really can't afford a lot of equipment right now but do want to good quality photos.

The situation I am most concerned with is taking photographs during wilderness camping trips. These will be backpacking trips of several days at a time. Light levels will vary from low ligt in heavy dense woodlands to bright sunshine without a speck of shade to be found.

I had a Panasonic DMC-FZ20 for a couple of years and now kick myself for getting rid of it. http://howto.netmorale.com/viewtopic.php?t=303

Looking on ebay and reading literally hundreds of reviews have left me pretty confused to say the least.

Do you have a favorite point and shoot or DSLR that is under $600??

I was just thinking about Saurons former master Melkor and my question is was Sauron his most powerful servant or just his most trusted servant? It seems that some of his other servants like Gothmog would be at least equal to sauron in terms of power. Was Sauron considered Melkors Predecessor or just one of his minions?

It is said that god loved us so much he gave us the most precious gift that was granted no other in his creation, freewill. So if only we have free will, angels, including fallen ones, don’t. Which brings the question is Satan responsible for anything she does?

I'm not an expert on copyright law at all, and I'm curious about whether or not the following situations violate copyright law for published works.

[in each case, the setting for use is directing choir in a public school]

1) I own enough copies of the work for all of my students to use, but I would prefer to make and distribute photocopies to my students. I will destroy all photocopies following the performance.

2) I own one copy of a work which is P.O.P. (permanently out of print) by the publisher. Can I make enough copies for my students to use?

3) Can I borrow the work from another school's library?

4) If a work has recently entered public domain, can I photocopy a published version of the music? (as in, a piece was once published by Carl Fischer, and I bought a single copy from them years ago. The piece recently entered public domain...can I reproduce that single copy I have?

Thanks!!

If at the beginning there was nothing but god and only god, then everything came from her. So god is a part of everything and everything is a part of god, including good and evil. Since he created “good” and good created from him, he is good. But isn’t he also evil, since evil too came from and a part of him?

May peace be upon you –P

Ps. Evil is not lack or absence of good. Absence of good is negligence, which can be pretty evil itself at times. But evil is the execution of a wicked state of mind and moral standards.

Did everyone in the original Order of Phoenix die by the end of the last Harry Potter book. If I remember correctly, the members were: Harry's parents, Neville's parents, Sirius, Lupin, Petigrew, and Dumbledore. Am I missing someone? Was Mad-eye a member too? He didn't survive anyway. Did anyone in the original Order of Phoenix survive?

I'm writing an essay on the effects the Blitz had on everyday life in Britain at the time. I'm struggling to find anything on the internet that doesn't have something to do with pre-written, ready-made essays so am finding it difficult to collect information for my essay. Can anyone help me with this?
