Arts & Humanities - 25 November 2007

I've been playing the flute for 7 years now and I plan on majoring in music performance in college. As a summer job that would give me opportunities to perform in public, I thought I'd apply to some of the fancier restaurants in my town and ask if they would like a musician. Before I do that, though, I'll need a variety of different works. I thought I'd use some pop music, classical favorites, modern pieces, and genres like that to perform.

I was thinking about Carnivale di Venezia (Carnival of Venice) by Briccialdi/Delorenzo, Syrinx by Debussy, Three Preludes for Unaccompanied Flute by Muczynski, Suite in A Minor by Telemann, and some songs from James Galway's CDs "The Wind Beneath My Wings" and "The Very Best of James Galway." I plan to learn those by ear.

Two questions: Is this enough? I don't really think it is, so if not, what else might be good choices? Preferably, they would have no piano accompaniment, because I won't have one, unless I can find someone.

Thanks!

Hey, I was wondering if anyone knew if you have to have an agent to get with equity? As i feel it would help me on my search for one to be with equity to make me more professional (and cover myself).

Hope you can help. Thanks.

The solider claimed that the Mexican War was "one of the most unjust ever waged by a stronger against a weaker nation."

The young soldier was Lieutenant Ulysses S. Grant.

Your thoughts?

I have heard that indians can get free dental work and all that stuff, but i recently heard that an indian can get a free car, paid by the Indian Reservation. I cannot find it anywhere on the internet so I am not sure if this is true, My great grandma is full blood indian, and I have gotten free dental work, on the indian reservation, but if I can get a free car, that would be the greatest.

have to perform a play tommorow at school and I have too sing at the end (on my own).
We went into groups and then each kid in the group had to write a scene out and as part of my part i have to sing.
I really don't want too, i've talked to the rest of the group but they don't seem too care.
I don't want to go to school tommorow, my confidence is already rock-bottom without having to have the whole class laughing at me.
Im 13 by the way.
HELP!!

If we don't do the play we get D30's (30 minutes detention) and the teacher doesn't care about her students just about her getting her pay cheque each month.
I feel sick and I feel like crying because i don't want to sing.
I'm a rubbish singer, i only got picked because everyone picked their parts and i got the rubbishest part :[
I've talked & talked too everyone but they say 'just do it' but i don't want to, and im not. Teachers can't force you too do something you don't want, right?

See any striking similarities between the book and our country today?
One person compared the Two Minutes Hate to the Pledge of Allegiance. Another compared Emmanuel Goldstein to Osama Bin Laden. The constant riots, pointless wars also remind me of today.
Any other - more subtle - things you noticed while reading that you could share?

I guess I need to clarify my previous question. I'm wondering more about the "organized" part of religion. Something more like this:

Should we work ourselves around a specific religion, or would that be ignorant? Is it not better to maybe grow up practicing a certain religion, and then to question it? In the end, we either find a religion that is more believeable, or are drawn closer to our original beliefs. How do we choose and truly believe "x" religion if we never question? In order for the belief to be true, isn't self-love and understanding a prerequisite?
Moreover, doesn't everyone have different beliefs? Some people believe in God, some people don't. Some people believe in Jesus, others follow Buddah. Then you get into a few of the complexities of teachings, and how each ought to be worshiped. But... is that it? Why do we draw the line on subdivisions there? Once that line is drawn, we're oppressed by the religious sophists and, whether one likes it or not, a damper is placed upon their spirituality.
In the sermon today, our priest stressed "the church vs passions". He said that in order for us to follow the lord, we have to be accountable. This is why the church tells us to fast on "x" day, and we should follow- irregardless of what we think.
But isn't that the greatest paradox of all? Apparently, there's no room for interpretation. When, to me, that's all religion is.

I am a spiritual person, and believe in many concepts of the Orthodox faith. But I'm starting to question ORGANIZED religion. Any thoughts?

Hi guys, but what does the New World in the New world Translation stand for?

As it was written in the 1950's, the idea of settling and colonising America as the new free world must have been a little bit out of date.

However, the new world order, the plan for one reliogeon, one economy, one spiritual leader, and one world president was well under way

with establishements such as the council of foreign relations, the tri lateral commsion

and many pugnacious intellectual heavyweights such as ALlbert Einstein saying the future of mankind lies in World Government.

This is of course a contradiction to the prophecies written in the book of revelations which says that the furture will be a time of great turmoil and tribulation caused by the leaders of this one world government

anyway, in case none of this applies I just want to know What JW's make of the phrase New world trnaslation, and what is the New world the translators were reffering to, if it's not about the New World order?

What love means to us is how we define love, and how the ones we love define love. "True love" is a state of mind, which comes and goes in people. The concept of "true love" is a shelter for those people who believe that without love, there would be no point to life, no hope, no God, no anything. That life could just exist, going forward contrary to these principals. It is obvious that love means many different things to different people and that to each it holds a different value

Just look at the way men were treated in 'war' and we can see that if this were committed upon any other group, be they women, blacks or whatever, then it would be named genocide. Hitler named Jewish only concentration camps 'work camps'. Society names male-only draft 'Conscription'.
