I love Victorian Patterns and I wish I knew how to either draw or create them in Adobe Illustrator (The fancy scroll/ornamental patterns designers love to use.) Are there any books on doing this? Or online video tutorials?

This is a question for fun, just to see how old y'all are! I asked a group of photographers and nobody came back to me with an answer. Let's see how you do. The first one to answer both parts correctly and completely will be awarded with ten points.

Why do some 35 mm SLR's sync with the flash at 1/60 and others at 1/125?

Why do some larger format cameras sync at even higher speeds than the smaller SLR's?

Get busy. We'll see who is as old as me with this one... :-)

There's an add for Asian or Eurasian young women. I fit all the criteria but I'm not Asian. However I have the epicanthal fold because I'm Natirah. But also, I think some of my famil came from Asian Russia so technically could I be considered Eurasian? I'm pale skin, black hair, almond/epicanthal fold eyes. The only thing that might tip off I was mixed is that I have blue eyes but I could wear brown contacts. Would I still be allowed to go?

For example, I'm look for shows like Little Women, the Producers, Urinetown, Drowsey Chaperone, etc. I know that they're out there, I just have no clue where to begin my search. Any advice would be appreciated.

What did you think of it? Did you find the first part really dull? Did you like the ending?

hi, where can i read cute, romantic, meaningfull poems online?? The words shouldnt be too difficult. ANything like this - (Weeping willow with your tears running down, why do you always weep and frown? Is it because he left you one day? is it because he could not stay? On your branches he would swing, do you long for the happiness that day would bring? He found shelter in your shade. You thought his laughter would never fade. Weeping willow, stop your tears. There is something to calm you fears. You think death has ripped you forever apart. But I know he'll always be in your heart) - that's from the movie MY GIRL by the way haha. ok thanks! byeeeee

It is one thing to see value in changing certain things from our past, but is there any value in distorting the history books.

In other words, are there any deletions, additions or blatant distortions that would benefit our impressionable younger generation. Would humaneity gain any advantage from a "clean slate" or would we gain something from purposeful distortions that are designed to "correct" certain historical truths that are misleading.

Is honesty always the best policy?

I just need a good book to read for a school book report. I am 14 and need something interesting. Maybe about some struggles that christian teens go through today with drugs and stuff.
Thanks!

What I mean is if I were able to go back to 1812 would Andrew Jackson still be alive? Depending on the answers I get I will have more arguments for them. I also confess I have discussed this with friends so I will have some quick answers. Also in our discussion we did not come to any sort of conclusion. What do you think?

I have a really serious question. I want to be an actress since I was seven and right now I'm a junior in HS and when I graduate I'm planning on going to auditions and sending my resume to every agent that is out there. I'm not stuck up or anyting but everybody I know keep telling me that I'm really pretty and stuff. I'm Russian and I came from Russia 3 years ago and I learned English just for acting. Acting is the only thing that I live for. Please give me an idea what to do after I fishish HS. I take my art VERY seriously and I'm very dedicated.

Thank you all

beaten into life

Bring to me the endless night,
Celebrate with my suffering.
Here's to both my blackened eyes,
Bring to me one thousand years of night.
The worst has yet to come to all,
Careless as humans are.
We brought this all upon ourselves,
All shall be engulfed, in pure purple hatred,
Hopeless, yes our lives shall be.
The fear weighs on our shoulders,
Regrets that will last forever.
Bring these to my haunted dreams,
Slowly, as I am beaten into life.
Only one damned thing is certain,
The living shall wish for their own death.
We are worse than nothing,
Careless as we shall always be,
The end of life, the curse.

I love Stephen King books and how they all tend to refer to each other. Some King movies have been really awful but some have been really good as well. Some of my favorites are:

The Green Mile
The Shawshank Redemption
Christine
The Dead Zone
Misery
and Pet Cemetery

Also what are some of his books that you think would be great movies that HAVEN'T been made yet? Here's my list:

Insomnia
Rose Madder
Bag of Bones
Cell
Black House and
Gerald's Game.

Hello everyone, I've been playing on my old first-act Guitar for about a year and a half now and I feel it's time to bump up, I tried one of my friends guitars (It was a mid-end Ibanez, I don't remember which) and I could play a lot better so I figure my crappy First Act is holding me back.

So, what is a good intermediate-level electric guitar?
I play pretty much everything, but mainly hard rock / metal / punk. The max I can spend is 350$, and I'm looking to order it online so please include where I can get it with your answer :D

Thanks guys!

Oh and PS I play both rythm and lead guitar on-and-off so one which can fill both positions nicely would be GREAT!

From his Coy Mistress


Had you had world enough and time
I’ll let you know you’re a pervert
Had you had world enough and time
I’ll tell you that you make me sick
Had you had world enough and time
I’ll tell you I’m not to be taken for a fool
Had you had world enough and time
I wouldn’t love you forever
I write to you to let you know your wooing can’t get to me.
You say you don’t have enough time
but yet you worship me.
All the money in the world will never
Make me lust for you more.
You complement me on my skin
Then threaten me with sexual thoughts.
All of the praising of my body seems sexual
Talking about praising my breast is not the way you get this lady
I’m a young woman looking forward to a lot of things in life.
Even more your not my type.


I'm not avoiding you because I'm coy.
I'm avoiding you because I do not like you.
I’m not avoiding you because I’m selfish
I’m avoiding you because you are too old.
Threats of worms eating me do not put me in the mood.
You say if I don’t respond to you
I would die a virgin.
But I will never give you the time of day.
You shower me with words of love saying
“I would love you ten years before the flood”.
And “An hundred years should go to praise
Thine eyes, and thy forehead gaze.”
But yet you don’t know me.

Making all kinds of sexual advances is not the way to get into my heart.
To me it seem like you just want sex.
I deserve more than this.
I want to be treated like a queen.
I want to be treated like a person
not someone who you look for when you want to be intimate.
If you praise me for is my beauty
Then you are severely missing out on something important
I am not just your sexual toy
And you will be nothing more
to me than a failed attempt of a relationship
