Arts & Humanities - 9 September 2007

I started my research about 4 years ago and have been pretty successful so far.I was lucky to come from a well documented line of descendants,at least in part! My problems all started when I began to research my Father's family and found an obscure refrence to "Documents filed in the Dallas County Clerk's Office"on a grade school information card.I went to the CC and found there was a record of adoption on file there.It said that his parents,James Aaron Terry and Virgie T.Terry were man and wife and were relinquishing their parental rights to my father,listed as Wilburn Edward Terry, born 25 March 1922.The date was 25 March 1925,his third birthday.I began my search with the Terry's and found James and Virgle T.Terry on the 1920 Hopkins County Census.They listed their ages as 25 and 17,respectivly. James and Virgie born in Texas,Virgie's mother born in Missouri.Virgie is a comlete mystery.After the adoption she disappears.James is remarrying in 1926.No trace of Virgie.Help please.......

This is the play I'll be performing in, but I have no idea who my character is, and I was wondering where I could find the script for this play, or even for Lady in Yellow. All I know is she's talking about how she lost her virginity.
Thank you in advance!!!!!!

I do a lot of abstract art most of it is digital - I got my Masters degree in Computer Graphics in 1989 an I"ve been doing digital art since, but only as a hobby - I did other things for work, and I'm looking into trying to do art full time. I'm trying to find out ways to get myself established.
I live in Central Wisconsin and my art really isn't appropriate for this area in that they really want nature,etc. and my stuff is more abstract - I'm open to ideas.
I'm looking for which art shows are the best for digital art and abstract art or both - thanks

thanks

Ok well I am doing National History Day this year so I will be posting a lot here.

First thing is topic...

For anyone who doesn't know the theme is Conflict & Compromise.

So what I'm thinking is the Nancy Kerrigan and Tonya Harding incident.

Opinions?

What's it called, why do they do it, and why are Ado Annie and the other women so set against it?

He was the best Archie artist of all, I thought. I believe he died early in this decade.

It seems like it would be filled with a lot of excitement, and of course many opportunities that most of us don't experience in our lifetime, but in the long run do you think it brings nearly as much fulfillment and peace a lot of people seem to believe it would?

then He would have to be intrinsically holy and execute perfect justice.
That could mean nothing other than every person in the world being doomed. (nobody is perfect, and God cant tolerate anything less than perfection else he would not be a perfect God)
Could this be the reason for mankinds endless pursuit of a Godless universe, to have no cosmic accountability whatsoever?
Why do you suppose humans are more eager to deny their responsibility to God rather than striving to find a rectified relationship with Him?

Mine is smooth,
lustrous and inviting

Mine tastes sweet.

Mine is creamy,
frothy and milky

Mine smells heavenly.

Once you tasted mine,
you will carve for it,
and ask for more

Mine is cappuccino,
what’s yours?

A fast death occurred
ripping apart perceptions
once clearly steadfast

Futile to amend
the misconception realized
for the truth it is

A sad sacrifice
with no redemption in sight
caused a vacuum

A hard lesson learned
never to be forgotten
in the jarred essence

It seems unheard of that a tribal country could have conquered so many nations. What did they do that enabled them to be so fearsome?

Say if a person you know, not very well that is, but you do slightly know him, raped, tortured, brutalized and murdered everyone you ever knew and loved. If you are a very vengeful person, would you kill them on the spot, put them into a position where they will suffer for the rest of their life (if so explain how), or would you just let it slide and let "karma" get to them?

So I'm making the move to LA after highschool and I'm going to be going to college to major in theater arts and take acting classes. So I need a little advice on choosing Acting classes, what I need to do before seeking an agent and how to find one, how to find a photographer to get my headshot done and how to find out about auditions. Basically I just need to know everything that I need to do. Now aside from all that, I also need to deal with the moving process to LA or just moving to another state period. This will be my first time being on my own once I make the move so I need some guidance on everything I need to do before and after I move out to LA in order to make my moving process as smoothly as possible. So any advice will be really appreciated.

I thought it was just the hollywood directors, but after reading some of the views on answers I'm beginning to wonder. While they unboubtedly helped bring it to a swifter close, saving many lives, last time I checked it was Russia that actually caused the most grief and took Berlin, and given how crap the Nazis were at putting a decent economy together it's doubtful they'd have held it together for long anyway. Maybe I just need to read less and watch moe Speilberg...
