I'm taking an entry level photography class right now and I'm trying to figure out what I should expect to budget while looking for a camera. Any good camera recommendations or websites would be great too, but I'm not expecting a problem finding a camera locally. Obviously, I'm hoping this won't be too expensive--I'm a broke college student!

Is it 2007 everywhere in the world?

Its only really Christianity that believe Jesus was the son of God...so why would it be 2007 AD (After the death of Christ) in places that dont believe in Jesus

When did the world start using the same year system

WHAT DO YOU LIVE FOR IN LIFE? Money or Power or Love or Happiness or Pride, Don't say all. Select one


Please use your brain and tell the truth. Don't give me philosophical talks. Instead give me practical answers about what you really live for.
Who knows, this question could invent actually what you are up to instead of what you should be.
Most of us are behind money & power
Some live with pride
We always search for love which we don't get
But in all of the above we forget happiness.............. This is my say

I have already had training and have done a few projects with friends and family. I am being encouraged by lots of people that see my ability to pursue this. My problem is i am hitting a wall on how to find my resources on manufacturers, etc. I feel I need to know where to go for resources. Any ideas?

my parents and i made a deal. if i get 85% and above on all of my tests and etc. i'll be able to do my community theater musical! but just recently i got an 80% on my math test and a 63% on my reading test. i got 100's on 2 other reading quizzes but i forgot them in my locker. how do i explain my math and reading grade to my mom? i'd rather get it over with and tell her though. my choices are: 1) call her at work, there's no way she can yell at me on the phone when her boss is there
2) e-mail her about it, she's usually a lot nicer on e-mail BUT she'll probably put "we need to talk about this when i get home." at the end.
3) tell her when she gets home--but then she'll yell at me and ground me the auditions and tv. and computer and phone and just plain hate me (she was in a really bad mood this week cause she got into a fight with my older brother and 2 older sisters.) yeah, i know. it was all my fault i should've studied more but i read the book twice! please give me a good idea!

I know that this poem hardly makes any sense at all. And the technique (or whatever) is totally mixed up, and incorrect.
I , however, like it that way. So, if you want to read it, be my guest. I just hadn't written anything in a few hours, and I needed to.

Looking up at you from beyond my grave
You hide your face from the world
What happened to the man I love?
Have you given up on faith?
I told you once that I’d love you forever
And forever hasn’t stopped since I went away.
Don’t cry for me
Don’t fake a smile
Cause we’ll be together
In a little while
Hold on, my love
It will be okay.
Although your heart has crumbled,
Tomorrow is always a new day.
You question your purpose in life,
And you wonder whether it just seems
Fair that you should end it.
Do no such thing, please listen to me.
Even though the fire in your soul remains unlit.
You must always remember that I love you,
And there are others who feel the same way.
Surely you must have been joking when you said
That killing yourself is the only way.
A drop of blood falls on the ground,
I’m here, helpless, watching you bleed.
There’s not a soul around to see
That you, yourself, have ended your life,
Just for a chance for us to be together
There is no hope for return,
Due to the knife that slit your wrists,
And the drugs that you took too many of.
And now, an outsider would plainly see
A crumpled body laying in a pool of blood,
The limp hand holding a letter.
A letter that I sent from beyond the grave,
Saying that love would keep us together.

Since you cannot make comparisions, how do you tell them just what color is, in more then just a technical way???

For me, it would have to be a Roman during the height of the Roman Empire or a Roman legionary on a campaign somewhere.

Another one I would like is a crusader during the First Crusade. What about you?

The studio was filled with the rich odour of roses, and when the light summer wind stirred amidst the trees of the garden, there came through the open door the heavy scent of the lilac, or the more delicate perfume of the pink-flowering thorn.
From the corner of the divan of Persian saddle-bags on which he was lying, smoking, as was his custom, innumerable cigarettes, Lord Henry Wotton could just catch the gleam of the honey-sweet and honey-coloured blossoms of a laburnum, whose tremulous branches seemed hardly able to bear the burden of a beauty so flamelike as theirs; and now and then the fantastic shadows of birds in flight flitted across the long tussore-silk curtains that were stretched in front of the huge window, producing a kind of momentary Japanese effect, and making him think of those pallid, jade-faced painters of Tokyo who, through the medium of an art that is necessarily immobile, seek to convey the sense of swiftness and motion. The sullen murmur of the bees shouldering their way through the long unmown grass, or circling with monotonous insistence round the dusty gilt horns of the straggling woodbine, seemed to make the stillness more oppressive. The dim roar of London was like the bourdon note of a distant organ.
In the centre of the room, clamped to an upright easel, stood the full-length portrait of a young man of extraordinary personal beauty, and in front of it, some little distance away, was sitting the artist himself, Basil Hallward, whose sudden disappearance some years ago caused, at the time, such public excitement and gave rise to so many strange conjectures.
As the painter looked at the gracious and comely form he had so skilfully mirrored in his art, a smile of pleasure passed across his face, and seemed about to linger there. But he suddenly started up, and closing his eyes, placed his fingers upon the lids, as though he sought to imprison within his brain some curious dream from which he feared he might awake.
"It is your best work, Basil, the best thing you have ever done," said Lord Henry languidly. "You must certainly send it next year to the Grosvenor. The Academy is too large and too vulgar. Whenever I have gone there, there have been either so many people that I have not been able to see the pictures, which was dreadful, or so many pictures that I have not been able to see the people, which was worse. The Grosvenor is really the only place."

Is your philosophy of LIFE, or the lack thereof, starving you and keeping the refrigerator door locked, your creativity frozen, and your mind malnourished?

Or have you found a way to place your philosophy of LIFE on the oven, and cook something nutritious?

Have you ever had a satisfying philosophical meal? If so, what was it? Did you have to select from the Y!A menu? And/Or did you serve yourself your own philosophical meal at home?
