I know that it is an ancient structure but its not the oldest, has anyone heard about the bronze age temples in Malta which are 4,000 years old (oldest structures in Europe if not in the world) and are planned with care (the sunlight reaches the altar at the equinox) and are buildings scattered trough an island?

Why do you fuss all over stone hedge and ignore other structures? Why didn`t they become a wonder of the ancient world?

I'm writing a story in which an Irish settlement is attacked by English soldiers at some point in medieval history. I would like the story to be as historically accurate as possible, does anyone know a point in medieval history in which this may have occurred and why?

One of my friends asked me to look it up for them, and i can't find an answer that they're looking for. I mean, i know infants do it when something tastes bad, but there HAS to be more to it. is there a reason for adults to do it? i know it's a universal sign of mockery, but where did it originate? Basically my friend's question is, is the true meaning something dirty? (the reason why my friend cant post this question is because they don't have a computer) The person that gives me the right answer will be chosen as the best answer.

A material that is:
Fluid, but dries out hard
Can get wet without getting ruined
Doesn't require a hardener
Doesn't melt easily with heat
Won't crack when drilled
Doesn't stick to wax

That knocks out fiberglass resin, wax, plaster of paris, bondo, soap, candy base, ice, the like.

My friend and I, both 15, are about to start learning how to play the acoustic guitar.

I was wondering if you play the acoustic guitar the same way you play an electric guitar? Is there a difference in how to play, or are they just different kinds of guitars?

Also, I really want to learn how to play Collide by Howie Day...how long do you think it'll be until I get there?
