I am in a project to design a shoe shop for fashionable ballet pumps and flats. The client asks to introduce the concept of ballet into the shop design. The concept will be reflected in the materials, lighting, style and or a branding story, etc. Would someone like to contribute some ideas? Many thanks.

I discovered after buying a digital camera that I'm quite good at taking scenic pictures.. I'd like to turn that into a professional endeavor but I'm not sure how to start. any advice on business cards... I'm not even sure what to offer as a business.

any suggestions on how to start? what should I offer a customer? How should I some-how mark or label a picture that I sell so its clear it is my picture?

The inability to see the bigger picture or to see what is right in front of someone is often referred to as not being able to 'see the forest for the trees'. That is confining oneself or being restricted to noticing the minutia (small or insignificant things) of day-to-day life while being unable to notice the bigger or more important things.

"True" love, happiness, joy, wisdom, security of self, the list is endless. Having these things has for the longest time, many thousands of years, been considered to be some of the most important things to posses in life and also some of the most valuable. It has been said that "man does not live on food and water alone", and while the struggle for subsistence is difficult in the extreme within our society if someone has nothing or very little there will eventually be a need for human companionship and enlightenment, a need to feed the mind and soul as well as the body.

Why then is it that if everyone need these things, love, happiness, wisdom, etc. to give life meaning and purpose that many fall into the trap of living to work, of living to pay the bills, of living for the sake of living? Is there a base reason why or society prises money, little pieces of paper with numbers on them, over wisdom, over ‘the love of a lifetime’, over feeling happy and content at heart with life as it is?

Why is it that people can’t see the forest for the trees?

Please explain your answers.

Thanks.

Do they ask what's your major, and "what are you going to do with that?" Does it bother you if you're not sure?

I'm a Psychology major, and after learning more and more, I've decided I don't really want to go down that route. My passion is in History and Philosophy. But I know if I switch majors to anything in the Humanities, I will consistently get blank stares. I'm tired of the utilitarian attitude everyone has now. I just want to think for myself, be educated, and enjoy college. And worry about what comes next later. Thoughts?

For example:
A symbol for Rousseau could be a pair of glasses because there is a saying that " A Man is Born Free"
that is a Rousseau's symbol because he saw through the saying and notice how our world is actaully filled with chains.
So really the saying should be, "A Man is Born Free but Everywhere is Filled With Chains"


I would greatly appreciate your help

I turned 18 on September 8 this month, and I have always been fascinated and captivated by the sound of a Cello. I've always wanted to play one, but have never had the opportunity or the money to do so. I'm hoping to get a job soon so I can save up for one and finally be able to play it.
I'm kind of a late bloomer in the whole music scene. I started band in 8th grade (usually you start in 6th grade) and I have been working really hard to improve myself over the last 4 1/2 years. I love everything about music, and I really want to continue to play in College in a Marching Band & Symphonic Band of some kind.
Can any Cello players out there give me some advice about buying a Cello, tuning, finding good teachers, how much I should be ready to spend, how long it takes to learn fingerings (I'm a woodwind player mostly, but I play some brass too)

Anything would be greatly appreciated! :)

Alright, my fiance wants to rent out a theatre/playhouse to perform the first run of a new musical comedy he has written. He wants to produce the whole thing basically as he has written the script, music etc. He found a place that he can rent for a decent rate. We will make all the sets ourselves and he hopes to produce cds he can sell, print broshures, etc.
This is a for a first run new musical never produced before.

Any playwrights / producers out there that can give pointers on things we should look out for? Things we may be not thinking about? Advice?

I'm braindead when it comes to remembering how this is done effectivle in novels. I'm like character A goes to work at 8am. But has a plot moment at 12pm. How do I smoothly cut from 8am to 12pm? Perhaps it's okay just to skip time with a sentence, but any misnomers? Thanks in advance for answers.

S How do you see Jesus?
How do you see Jesus, please embody him in your words the way you see him. Jesus is the #1 focus of Christian people, our mentor, our teacher, our best effort at understanding uncondtional love?
Can you see Jesus dressed in military uniform, with a gun, grenades, kevlar vest, holding a taser? ready to force you to do his bidding?
Or?
Can you see Jesus sitting in joyful participation of the world, with children, animals, and the old, counselling, spreading wisdom and insight, teaching us the right way to live and treat eachother?
