OK, I made a letter (a very good one) to Congress as Wilson stating why we should enter WWI...I had all the reasons in detail...

HARD PART:

I need a creative, maybe fun title for the paper (I am so not creative...I thought of NOTHING)

So if your creative leave a simple title!

THANKS!

I'm a daughter hiding my depression
I'm a sister making a good impression
I'm the person sitting next to you
I'm asking you to care.
I'm asking for a friend, hoping you'll be there

(Yep, I wrote this. It doesn't rhyme but it doesn't have to.)


WITHIN THE HEART'S DIMENSIONS


There are as many dimensions of love,
my friends, as there
are people capable of feeling love.

Always embrace the dimension you are
comfortable with.

Never offer more love that your heart can spare
and, in return, never expect more love
than you will need.

Only define
love when you wish to restrict its intent
and remember feelings offered to you
do not have to be returned in equal
portion because
love can not be
valued this way.

Be fair, be brave
and be sincere
and someone will
always be there.

Please be extremely specific... I really like to act. I've been taking acting classes continuously, plus I take acting as a course at school and I'm in the school play. I want to apply to an agency, but I don't have much experience. I've been in 6 school plays and 2 school films. Do you think agencies will hire a complete noob? Also I took an acting course over the summer. Do you think agencies will consider me even if I don't have much experience?

... It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us — that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion — that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain — that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom — and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.

please analyze the paralle --that's... what clause is this that lead to. How should I understand these that clauses.

Thanks

These are a few quesitons I'd like you to answer about the book.Im 13 and I just read it, it was confusing but eventually I got it.
1)What did you think of it?
2)Was the ending dissapointing to you?
3)Why was Arthur so.. normal.. after the destruction of his planet?
4)Was the destruction of his house and then the destruction of his planet that immediatly followed some kind of metaphore?

Thanks for you help :]

I'm twelve years old and have started my first book. I'm hoping to become a writer in my later years so I'd like some helpful advice. Well, fist off. Let me talk about a short summary of my story.
A female with the name of Darthana Arborshate is a Pixie, an enslaved species of elves. She escapes and starts to lead a life on her own. She soon meets a boy of her age but then finds out he's an Elder, the race that's enslaving the pixies. He's the prince and she's just an average slave. They fall in love while trying to bring equivalence to both races and meet other characters along the way. Darthana later finds out she's the Sage, a Pixie that saves all Elves when something's going wrong (Only shows every few hundred years in a different person each time.)
Well.......... the ending I haven't decided yet, but should I worry about this being like too many other books out there? I don't want to waste my time on a book that nobody will buy becasue it's like others.
Respond!

This book is about a teenage girl who's mother and father expect her to grow up and be a perfect businessperson but she secretly starts a rock band with some freinds sooner or later her band becomes not so much a secret and she is pretty much doomed-later she becomes very succesful and her mother is actually proud of her. thanks

Tell me if the deffinition of success and if it's right and why. You can pick any well known dictionary? I'm kind of following a random line of reasoning for something, thanks. 10 points to the first well thought out answer, even if i don't like it.

Seem to be having trouble with differing shades of green and feel I would be better off having different tubes of green hues , like green-grey, green-blue, lawn grass green, etc. Is this cheating??? I seem to be inclined to maybe muddy up the greens when mixing on the palette. What are the separate shades I should purchase for some of these differing shades of green or at least could someone tell me the colours to put together for grey/green for distant greens??? Thank you.

When I was looking at CD's today to use burning photos that I have taken with my camera, I noticed there were regular CR-R and then there were CD's that said that they were Photo CD's

Is there really a difference in the quality of the image when stored on these photo CD's or is this just a way for them to charge more for the product?

I am shooting with a Canon XTI and while some of my photo's are jsut the run of the mill photos some I blow up and frame and if I can get the best quality image from a different CD I will buy them for the ones I want to blow up but if it is all the same I dont want to waste the money.
