I recently acquired a painting signed by G Chapman called "Autumn". Does anyone know anything about painter? This is an oil landscape, rather primitive, that has a farm in the background with colorful autumn leaves on the trees. In the foreground is a tree draping down by a lake. There are ducks swimming in the lake. I'm assuming there may be a spring, summer and winter picture that this painter might have done, too.
Does anyone know where the microsoft windows desktop background 'azul' was photographed? It comes standard with the machine in the desktop pictures you can choose from. It's a small island with 3 palm trees on it surrounded by crystal blue water with a sailboat in the background. http://static.desktopnexus.com/wallpaper… <---I believe you can find a picture of it there. I have reason to believe it's a real place since one of the other pictures (autumn) included in the standard backgrounds is a real place in canada. Any help would be great!

What On God's Green Earth Is Going On With Yahoo ,and Their Inability To Get The Avatar Issue StraightenedOut? ok-first my pictures aren't behaving properly- like pics that were ACTUALLY REMOVED from my 360 were still being shown as an avie.

But my AVIE WILL NOT CHANGE. i am still a summer background on ANSWERS, but have an AUTUMN background everywhere else "Yahoo", because i have ,Indeed, changed my avatar, but apparently , Yahoo's avatar operators are all still on a CoffeeBreak with Yahoos Flickr/photo/360 operators , who are obviously drinking at the same place that ANSWERS Officials go.

Is it okay to have your bridesmaids wear a creme color? I'm having an autumn wedding and my flowers are VERY colorful. I want a neutral background so the flowers will stand out. I want to use a light color, like ivory, creme, or even a light champagne color. Do you think that it would look ok? Also, I dont like being the center of attention and I know that because it is my wedding alot of the attention will automatically be on me...I just thought that if me and my bridesmaids were wearing a similar color then I wouldnt stand out as much...Am I being silly?

Eliminating "Halo Effect"? In some photos I take where one vivid color is supposed to blend smoothly into another, for example, autumn leaves in the background, I see harsh lines instead of smooth blending between the colors. I think it's called Haloing or Halo Effect. I use a HP Pavilion dv5t laptop, but when I looked at the same photo on an iMac, the halo crap wasn't there and the photo looked great. Is it because my computer has less processing power, or because the Mac display is just better? I really can't post a picture to show you guys because the whole point is that it looks different on every monitor.

Can you help me find songs for a movie I am making? I am making a video of pictures of a summer cottage on a lake that has held lots of memories and good times for a family and their friends for 25 years. Can you suggest some songs for background music? I am especially looking for songs about: A special place Summer Autumn Vacation Good times Family Lakes The country They can be any genre, but I'd especially like songs from the 60s, 70s, or 80s. California Dreaming is a great song, but it won't work on this video because it's in Massachusetts. LOL. I probably should have specified that!
Do you ever find yourself caught up in the self-indulgent fantasy of the two of us, cheek to cheek, dancing a? tender, romantic minuet? Our fingers tingling with every touch? Our hearts all a-twitter with the hopefulness of the autumn evening? The elegant souds of the string courtet in the background? Do YOU? Do you go wild with desire? When you remember the dress I wore? The acid-washed, '80's-style mini dress complete with oversized bow over the butt? My brown pleather fringes swaying gently back and forth as I glide acrosss the floor in your arms?
10 pts....Creating a mysterious aura about someone? I am having some trouble making this character mysterious for my manuscript. For this chapter (short flashback chapter), she finishes a painting for hers, two trees on a blue background, one tree has fallen autumn leaves, the other is the same tree, but in summer. It's suppose to represent how she feels. After she finishes the painting, she wanders around town, does some shopping, and returns home. She's happy, she finished her painting, and bought something for herself. So she makes dinner, pours herself a glass of wine, sits down, and starts crying. Would a reader find this mysterious, or misguided as a reader? The reader does know that she's led an eventful life, but isn't filled in on her past yet. It's later revealed that she has terminal cancer, and has been trying to hide it. Only to have it manifest elsewhere (the painting, and attempts for material happiness). The manuscript won't touch again on why she's emotional for a few chapters after that. What do you think? Mysterious, or have a led the reader the wrong way in an annoying manner?
What should I use this piece of fabric for? I bought a really pretty piece of fabric (a yard) with autumn color leaves on a cream background, and their names in a deep red script behind them. I can either use it to make covers for the pillows on my couch or put it in a large frame I have above my dining table (Yes, I do frame pretty fabric. Cheap "art" I can afford to change often lol). My couch is black btw, and I currently have a autumn blanket, 2 green pillows and a stuffed pumpkin on it :-) O and I also have a sewing machine, and I'm a pretty good seamstress, so if you have any other suggestions, I'd love to hear them :-)
Harland Young picture? My grandparents kept a picture of a farm scene above their fireplace.. I have had this in my house for over 12 years. Recently I was moving it to a new location and accidently put a whole in it. Behind it i could see brushstrokes.. so out of being curious.. i took it down and began to investigate. The outer picture was a farm picture out of a 1972 childcraft world book encyclopedia it was carefully placed around a picture of autumn trees with a cabin in the background and a stream running beside the tree line. in the lower left corner it has the signature of Harland Young?? can anyone help me out here.. i know this picture has been covered for at least 35 years. Any info would be appreciated.. Thanks...
Can anyone help me with the Japanese Autumnal equinox? So, I need help with writing a five sentence paragraph in japanese about it. I have all the facts, but I'm not sure how to do it in Japanese. The lil essay that I wrote about it in English is The Autumnal Equinox, or Higan No Chu-Nichi in japanese. The Higan is the period of time around autumn and spring, there's a saying that expresses this time, "Both the heat and cold end with Higan." The Autumnal Equinox is on September 23 or 24, on this day, they pay their respects to their parents, grandparents, and other family members who have passed away. They celebrate the Higan also to state the changing of seasons, from Autumn to Spring. The Autumnal Equinox actually has two backgrounds. One being the celebration of when the seasons change, a typical celebration of an agricultural society. This is the day when the night time hours and the day-time hours are equal. The other background is a religious one, the religion is buddhism. They visit their deceased family, just like I stated above. They weed their family tombs and leave flowers, sweet rice balls covered with soybean paste, and incense. It is tradition that they bring round food because the family members prefer round foods over any other. On this day, they don't exactly eat anything specific. If anything, they would probably also eat sweet rice balls because they would make them for their family anyways. On Higan, the people that have passed away are the ones that eat specific food. Can anyone help?
Do I please family or myself when choosing wedding date? Background info: My sister and her family lives in Japan and can only visit for long extended stays during the summers (she's a teacher). My fiance and I LOVE autumn in Chicago...want a wedding October 4th, 2008. As you can see....that's not a summer month. So the chances that my one and only sister (who I'd love to make a bridesmaid) and my lil nephew (my ringbearer) are very slim. Both parents continue to say "Why can't you have your wedding in the summer?" Summers in Chicago are comparable to hell....high humidity, lots of tourists, and so many weddings to compete with. My sister said she has a long weekend on October 4th....so she could possibly fly in Thursday and then leave on that Sunday (but coming from Japan...that's no easy feat). My sister said "Monica, don't let me dictate when you should have your wedding...but to think I would miss my only sister's wedding." Ughhh...what do I do? Summer '08 or October '08. I love my sister! I love autumn!
Myspace layout with multiple pictures(avatars)? How do you make a layout for myspace that uses more than one picture in the background. For instance: I found a bunch of autumn avatars on iconator.com than I want to put together and make a layout out of them. But I don't know how to do that, I only know how to use one. Or at least does anybody know how to combine them to make them one picture or something? Do I have to get a photo bucket? Well, What I have are all the different pictures bookmarked but I also have them put together in a word document the way I want them to look for the layout...I don't know if that does anything. But help me please...thanks

During this period, I have been involved in a Bachelor’s thesis project which allowed me to deepen academic matters such as ethics, corporate social responsibility and has increased my interest, my knowledge and my analytical skills in the field of Business Sustainability and Environmental Governance Systems. I enjoy change and am able to assimilate quickly into new places and I adapt to people easily. Thus, while studying for my degree, I took the opportunity to study one year abroad as an Erasmus student, experience that formed good knowledge in how to face an international and multicultural environment and that provided me both fluent speaking and writing skills in English and Spanish. My career aspirations after graduating are to obtain employment as an Innovation Manager in the field of renewable energy and natural resources management. I come from Sicily, a land that in spite of the amazing potential in terms of renewable resources, has never had the ability nor the will to tackle issues increasingly present. My deep desire to work in the field of renewable energy comes primarily from my will to demonstrate the market potential of my country and the awareness that these issues will in future have a dominant role at international level. Managing energy and natural resources is a field that always fascinates me and I believe that this Master Program will contribute to the evolution of my career as it suits perfectly with my future and my goals. From my studies at NHH I expect to gain a strong preparation that would allow me to develop analytical and understanding skills, providing me the ability to evaluate environmental impact of business and a great awareness of natural resource and energy value chains. I am sure that the core courses included in this Master Program will let me better understand how to take strategic decisions and how to provide competitive responses to energy and natural resource markets. I believe that a background in Business Administration and a strong motivation to pursue an International career in the field of Energy and Natural Resources Management make me a strong candidate for your Master Program. I am looking forward to the opportunity to study at NHH at Bergen and immerse myself in my studies and the Norwegian culture and language thereby increasing my cultural awareness. My time spent in Norway will bring enduring transformations in all aspects of my life that will assist me in attaining my academic, personal and career goals in the global arena. Sincerely, Valentino Giudice It's just starting to be Hot in here... :D
Winter Wedding Ideas? I've always invisioned an Autumn wedding, but I've really been getting into the Winter themes. Here's some of my ideas: -Instead of a gift table, gifts would go under a giant classic Chistmas tree (all white lights). -The color scheme would be red roses with pearl accents everywhere. He loves red roses and I love pearls! It would be a very elegant/classic look. I also like Hollies a lot, would that look good? -Ice scuplture. But I have no idea of what! I thought about a snowman but that's a little kiddie for such a formal affair. Lots and lots of candles! -I have no clue about whether we want a cocktail reception or a sit-down dinner! Help! -For drinks, would mulled apple cider, eggnog, and Irish coffee be okay? -Totally lost on food! -As we leave, have the guests ring jingle bells. -I'm a little on the wild side and would love to have a red feather boa as my "warmth". But I'm afraid that might not be enough and I love the thought of a velvet little jacket, but not sure. -I love Big Band music and Swing along with Jazz. Would it be nice to have them play softly in the background at the ceremony while the guests wait for me? Possibly play some slow Christmas tunes? -Would miniature Christmas trees be too much for the centerpieces? Not being able to see across from you? -Horse-drawn carriage :)? ANYTHING else y'all could help me with? Thanks!
What On God's Green Earth Is Going On With Yahoo ,and Their Inability To Get The Avatar Issue StraightenedOut? ok-first my pictures aren't behaving properly- like pics that were ACTUALLY REMOVED from my 360 were still being shown as an avie. THEN.. none of my pictures would work,and i had to be a stupid redX . I got sick of being one of a growing band of stupid redX'es and switched to my YAHOO AVATAR. Ok . so far so good. But my AVIE WILL NOT CHANGE. i am still a summer background on ANSWERS, but have an AUTUMN background everywhere else "Yahoo", because i have ,Indeed, changed my avatar, but apparently , Yahoo's avatar operators are all still on a CoffeeBreak with Yahoos Flickr/photo/360 operators , who are obviously drinking at the same place that ANSWERS Officials go. Has AnyOne Else Had Trouble With Their Avatars and Photos? Tell Me Your Stories. Maybe Yahoo Answers Officials will listen ,too. I'm putting this in POLLS and SURVEYS, because that seems to be what yahoo spends most of their time monitoring. oh and.. Yahoo? Is Your Coffee Break EVER going to be over?

Easy 10 points!?????? I need a good starting sentence for my essay on Jack the Ripper. That's the one, I'd thought of 'In the autumn of 1888, a series of brutal and vicious murders have begun occurring in the Whitechapel area, London. The murders of five prostitutes were thought to be motiveless and most often accredited to the infamous Jack the Ripper., I need to develop it and give a little more background on the murders themselves. The question is, why was jack the ripper not caught? I cannot begin writing it unless, I have an introduction. Thanks!
In which country of Europe should I live? Based on your own travel/living experience what country do you think suits me more? I am friendly, easy going but a kinda reserved sometimes. I like cleanness, I hate dirty streets and litter, bad transports unorganized services etc. I don't like high temperatures but a good sunshine could be desirable not that I dislike the cloudy weather or rainy as long as the light is gold and not gloomy white. I have no problems with rain if If I had to chose, between mountain or sea, this could be a hard choice but maybe I would pick mountain as I hate the flatness. I love lakes and green spaces and forests, I hate rushing and being stressed all the time. I like cities with good cultural background and events but not that big. My favorite session: autumn
What are some creative ideas for an in-class poetry reading? Hi everyone. I have a presentation of a poem for my English class. I already planned some things for it, but I was looking for some extra ideas to make it a really good presentation... here's what I have so far - Related painting (it is required anyways.. so...) - Spanish guitar on the background - Soft percussion instrument (rain stick, tambourine, etc.) This is the poem we'll be reading/performing: Autumn Song Know'st thou not at the fall of the leaf How the heart feels a languid grief Laid on it for a covering, And how sleep seems a goodly thing In Autumn at the fall of the leaf? And how the swift beat of the brain Falters because it is in vain, In Autumn at the fall of the leaf Knowest thou not? and how the chief Of joys seems--not to suffer pain? Know'st thou not at the fall of the leaf How the soul feels like a dried sheaf Bound up at length for harvesting, And how death seems a comely thing In Autumn at the fall of the leaf? Dante Gabriel Rossetti THANK YOU SO MUCH! :) Oh, and the poem is not "set in stone"... so any alternatives are also very welcome... keep in mind that this is for a high school class, so I can't be reciting innuendos in front of my teacher.
Can someone please give feedbacl on my pics? They are for a photography class I am taking that you need to demonstrate depth of field.

This is my essay for my ESL writing class. Can anyone give me any advice? Thank you very much.? My siblings and I are crazy about shopping online. Every other week a package is delivered in front of our door. Buying online provides us much simpler to find anything what we need and is easy to compare with other similar products. I usually scan my favorite webpage to find out their new products rather than spending half day to go to the mall. According to a research report, ‘How Do People Evaluate a Web Site's Credibility?’ by Stanford University and Consumer Web Watch states, “With more than 50 percent of the U.S. population having Internet access, the World Wide Web has become an important channel for providing information and services.” (2002) Therefore, the companies put a lot of resources to create an attractive and useful webpage in order to keep their consumers to stay and browse their websites. A good retailer website all contains the effective elements on it such as organizing categories, the ability to read, the ability to search items, and ability to realize the item from the picture. The two retailer web sites I am going to evaluate are The Body Shop website (TBS) and The Bath and Body Work website (BBW). As a consumer, I realize TBS is more successful, because of its pleasing visual appeal, smooth easy access, and understandable information. TBS has better visual appeal than BBW web. Visual appeal is the setting of pictures, color tones and graphic presentations which always give us the first impression. A web design expert, Tom Dahm states, “Color is also important for emphasizing the most important parts of our page. Remember that the purpose of Web design is to draw the visitor's eye to key page elements.” (2001). TBS keep using green consistently to highlight its natural ingredients, so the basic colors of website are green, white and black. On the homepage, it presents the products in front of the leaves with the black background. The clear background colors are not only for emphasizing TBS’s natural idea but also for highlighting of the soft color of its skin product’s image. TBS impacts visitors to have a positive impression about its natural products by using leaves in the background to make a color contrast with its products’ surface tone. In addition, there is a big rectangular picture in the middle of the website and three small rectangular pictures on its bottom. For all pictures, it shows the products on the left and descriptions on the right. Using this simple design can help the consumer to discover the products and the promotion at same time. The heading also defines the important promotion explicitly, and makes consumer easily to get into the sale event. In contrast, BBW is using a light brown color in autumn. The color of BBW’s homepage is changed many times with the seasons. The brown is not a right choice, because it does not match its colorful products. BBW uses flash pictures to show three different products which are home fragrance, body care, and anti-bacterial soap. In this way, it may introduce several products once to the visitor; unfortunately, it does not make strong impression to us. TBS has more incredible attraction than BBW because the visual appeal is organized and clear. Easy access is another reason to show TBS is better than BBW beside visual appeal. It accomplishes helping customers to find its products, if the website is organized. On TBS, there is a green scroll bar with white text on the top of the big picture. While the visitor places the mouse on any title of the green bar, it will scroll down with other subtitles. We can find the product quickly by selecting the subtitle on the scroll bar. On the other hand, BBW website does not provide a scrolling system. It has only a white bar with thin black text. When we want to find an item we have to click on the section, and then it will bring us to another page. On the second page it uses another setting by showing the small subjects on the vertical column on the left side. Moreover, there are the products’ brands (BBW sells different brands) by using several groups of subtitles under different titles on vertical column. For example, if I want to buy a lip gloss, I just click a button, “Lip gloss” under “Make Up” using the green scroll bar on the TBS homepage. However, I need to do more steps to find a lip gloss: firstly click the “Face & Hair”, secondly select a brand under “Makeup Brands”, then I will see some lip gloss on the third page. We might get bothered and unfocused when we go to too many pages to look for an item. The arrangement of BBW is more difficult for the visitor’s eyes to follow. If anyone is not the BBW’s coustomer, he will spend more time to figure out its complex setting. TBS is more successful by having more outstanding access, when it compares with BBW webpage. TBS website is more particular than BBW by providing good information. TBS and BBW carry many skin products. I have an experience of ordering an eye cream form BBW website. Indeed, it is easier if buying the item in

Does anyone I know like my new avatar look? Please! I need the truth if 5 says yes, I will maintain my look if not, I will change back to my autumn look. I think I look springy now! Especially the pompoms on my hair! If you don't know me, I was once with the red hat, my hair is long and in curls, I wore a coat, My back ground is full of autumn leaves. My eyes are green. Now, my eyes are brown, I am wearing a similar hat, just that it is pink with the pompoms, with that popular pink dress, and that picnic background. How do you feel? Bunnie Bones Actually, I want something new, but I don't really like this. Perhaps I would try something old fashion as I like old fashioned stuff. Any suggestions?
I am Writing a detective story for GCSE's cant think of a good plot.? so far i have got : It was a dark and dreary Autumn night in New York. Inside Phillies diner it was warm, I could hear the sound of the jukebox playing quietly in the background. As I looked outside the rain pattered on the window, making a constant tapping sound. The coffee machine made a whirring noise like the sound of a broken record. The barman laid a hot, steamy coffee on the brown oak bar before me. A man walked in. He was smartly dressed in a top hat and suit; he had a clean-shaven appearance. He sat opposite Jimmy and I. I greeted him with a warm, bright smile. He on the other hand, gave me a cold look, which made my spine shudder. He was suspicious looking but I tried not to notice..... But i dont know where it is going. i dont know anymore of the plot. HELP. PLEASEE
English native speakers! Please help with the motivation letter!? Dear ladies and gentlemen: I appreciate this opportunity to provide further background information in support of my application for entrance to the Business Administration program with major International Management at ******* for the 2008 autumn term. Ever since I was a child I dreamed of being a manger and imagined myself doing negotiations and traveling around the world. Seeing my family involved in business administration and how they enjoy doing it is a big motivation factor me. There are many reasons for my desire to pursue an international business major During my childhood I have lived in ***** and ****. I have had the possibility to travel a lot abroad and learn from the other nations and the different cultures. I talk in five different languages and enjoy working in a team with people of different nationalities. “I know the price of success: dedication, hard work and an unremitting devotion to the things you want to see happen” - Frank Lloyd Wright once said .I came to know that if I set clear goals and work hard, I could envision my future and direct the path of my life. I am confident that *** is the best school for shaping my future the way that I imagine. My future plan after graduation is to work in an international company in ******. After gaining some years of experience I would like to earn an MBA degree. With all the uncertainty and political, economic and technological changes in the world, I believe that management must have a solid understanding, supported by a strong academic foundation, of how to guide companies through these challenging times. In conclusion I would like to say that I like to take responsibility and to work alone or as part of a team. I am able to work hard and love challenges. I am eager to gain new experiences and in my opinion this program is the best way to achieve that. With a college degree, my possibilities would be endless, the starting salaries would be higher, I would get more recognition from companies, better quality jobs, and the satisfaction of succeeding in life I find that in the letter is something missing or perhaps anything too much. I would really appreciate your help as I need to finish this within two days. I highly appreciate your opinions and suggestions. Thank you in advance.
I feel bad for my cousin since she has an arranged marriage...Anyway I could help her? Well, my family is asian and..my cousin is just a teenager and our aunts and other relatives have decided to set her up for an arranged marriage. She actually hasn't met the boy they have picked yet, but she's about to. I don't think she wants this, and I know I wouldn't either if I were in her shoes. I mean, my parents never set me for arranged marriage, but of course I'm kind of in a relationship with a long-known asian guy friend too. I just want what is best for my cousin, just as my relatives do. However, I want them to understand that we're in AMERICA now, not back home. I've told my dad about this, and he sees my point of view, and my mom just ignores me, or makes me do something else. I don't want ppl making fun of my cousin either like how ppl sometimes make ignorant comments about her at her middle school...How can I help her with the arranged marriage, or comfort her for the time-being? Is there anything I can do to help her? Should I discuss any of this to anymore family? btw, my family's background is kind of strict and real traditional eastern...as you may tell...plus, i think my cousin needs some real boyfriends in her life, not a slave-driven wife who has a hard-working man who won't love her till later on in life, you see my point? her pre-marrial, *when she gets established*, will be from summer to harvest in autumn...
Is 2.63 gpa a bad gpa taking hard classes? I have a 2.63 gpa for my freshman year of college at University of Washington. Ended autumn quarter with a 2.9. Took CSE 142 and Physics 121 and English 131. Got a 0.7 in CSE 142 partly because I really didn't udnerstand it.Got a 1.9 in physics 121 due to it partially being calc based physics and I had no physics background before. Ended with a 3.5 in english comp. Then Spring Quarter retook i retook CSE 142 and got a 2.6 (The midterm and final i got class average but missed like 3 pts total on my hwk). Took physics 122 and got a 2.4. Took Ess 101 and got a 3.5. Now i have a cum gpa of 2.63 and I was just wondering...are those grades terrible? Going into sophmore year this september kind of worried. I put in the effort to learn but the results are just terrible. It was so easy to get As back in Highschool. Even when I study my butt off in college, my grades don't seem to reflect my effort. Am I going to be ok? I had a terrible time freshman year, partly due to too much free time and not knowing how to study or manage time. But when they choose who to accept in majors, they look at the difficulties of the class right? I mean everyone tells me its just freshman year. They say to just try adjusting your studying method. honestly if you're going to write "will any body bother reading this" you sure are a helpful person in real life. I'm here to get some help not to be criticized oh i got a physics 121 1.9 on my first try im retaking it fall quarter. Retaking CSE 142 i got a 2.6 which a B on the UW grading system. But i definately hear what you mean
Marriage Blessing - what do you think? Background: My husband and I were married 'our' way in a very non-religious ceremony with no reception afterward, no big white dress, no flowers etc in April. Since a lot of our family are Christian and would like to see us get married in a church and have the 'big white wedding' we were considering doing a marriage blessing at our family church next autumn and doing it up with the white dress, bridesmaids, reception, buffet, disco etc. The whole shebang that we would have liked to have the first time around. What do you think? PS. We didn't spend a lot on our civil ceremony, only £200 so we have money for the marriage blessing.

Consolidate student loans, Astrive problems, best private loans? My husband and I took out Astrive loans in Autumn of 2007 to help pay for school (when we were just starting out and had no credit yet). They each had a mediocre rate, and we deferred payments until January 2010 (6 months after our expected graduation). For awhile, we were receiving letters upon letters regarding the status of our student loans (from AES), however we have ceased to receive them as of last summer. I wasn't worried really, I knew when I had to pay back my loan, what the rate was, etc. Now, however, we have both decided to extend our educations to obtain more advanced degrees. I decided the best option would be to take out a new student loan (with a lower rate, now that I have built my credit up strong) to pay off both of our Astrive loans and help pay for the additional costs of our extended education. I figure it is best to consolidate everything into one student loan and defer payments until January, 2011 (six months after my new graduation date). I was surprised when I went to the Astrive website however, to find that they no longer offer student loans due to the current economic crisis, and most of the links on their website are broken. I can not seem to access our Astrive accounts to make modifications or view loan info. Does anyone know how to do this? Also, I'm looking for recommendations regarding a new private student loan to pay off the costs of our old loans and additional education expenses. Who has the lowest rates? Deferment, etc? All advice is appreciated. Some background info: Currently have 11,000 in student loans, expect I will need an additional 10,000 in loans summing to a total of a 21,000 loan I am looking for. I have a credit rating of between 750-800 and can easily get a co-signer. Thank you in advance to all who reply.
what do you think of this poem? saddd? I wrote it two years ago, when I was 13. It was about my .life at the time.. comment if you want to know what happened. My life was perfect in grade nine like a sunflower so sublime. Swaying in the wind a golden yellow. It was like a soft delicious carramellow. Laughing group of friends. My heart didn’t need the mends. Art I loved and did it well. People thought many were worth to sell. Next thing came like a dozen red roses. Sweet and bliss. He cam to art class and was pretty good. We stuck together as I knew we would. I talked about him almost everyday He became quite popular I do say. Soon my friends wanted to meet him.. So first my best friend was introduced A friendship of three was produced. We went out together all the time. The feeling like a happy dafadile, glorious in all Its sublime. One day I had to cancel on our group date They decided to still go with only short hesitate. Just like a flower on the brink of autumn. I found a glow inside my heart. I loved this guy right from the start! How could I have been so silly much Haha he was the one I his touch. I seemed to be reduced. She was that girl all the guys liked Only a few girls were the ones who disliked. He was no different and she knew better But I shoulod have know a she was a getter. I blended in to the background Darkness seamed to surround That best friend didn’t invite anymore. Mebe it was better before?? He shattered my heart and she screwed me throughout. Next I hear there going out.. She popular and im just not She hot and I cant do better. I don’t realy like him, she said My vision went a fiery red. She got the man of my dreams. And she treats it like nothing it seams. 3 months on she cheats because she can he brushes it off like hes a ‘real man’ now shes top of the school. Im not her friend and she tell me you never were fool! A lonesome soul drifting throughout im now 17. How did the years pass so slowly I think its because I was so lowly. He addressed me as ‘um you.’ Is he such a lose screw He dosnt remember the friendship we had Thet something special, I might aswell be dead Now im at the end of feeling sad My days have come and gone if only my life was redrawn now comes dawn but I cannot see nor can I hear or feel or taste no-one will point and say, what a waste its just a tree a rope and me.
Hey, could you read through this? I was wondering whether i could make any changes.? “Hill creates Hilliard’s thoughts about his imminent meeting with Barton in detail on pages 39 to 41 and 46 to 50, but we learn very little of Barton’s thoughts, except for one line of dialogue: “I saw your things. I knew you’d arrived.” He hesitated. “To tell you the truth, I was frightened to death of you!” Using pages 40-41 as a model and also of what you have learnt of Barton’s character and Hilliard’s background, create the episode where Barton enters the apple loft and first sees Hilliard belongings.” Barton slowly made his way up the splintered, wooden staircase, clutching on to the sides he heaved himself up, stretched and struck his head on the rafter. He looked up slightly whilst vigorously massaging his head, and muttered, “I’ll have to remember that one.” As he stepped up on to the noticeably uneven floor boards, they creaked, a sour scent of cider reached Barton’s nostrils and he creased his forehead. His eyes swept the room and rested momentarily on a trunk. Neatly put to one corner, the tarnished leather trunk sat. A firm lock buckled it tightly shut. The name “John Hilliard” was engraved on the side of the trunk in faded black ink. A pale cane walking stick with a rounded silver knob was propped up against the murky white- washed wall. Barton walked over to the belongings. He stretched out a hand to touch the walking stick, but hesitantly withdrew. Maybe he was soon to encounter the presence of a more mature man thought Barton. Strict. He hadn’t actually had the chance to reflect upon whom he would have to share the room with. Barton began to feel perceptibly nervous. Barton knew inside that he was not a shy person, yet the lack of belongings of the other had created a barrier of reluctance to meet him. He inched away from them. A candle was rested upon a stained, upturned cardboard box throwing a shaft of light around the room. A dusty armchair was placed in the other corner of the narrow loft. Barton walked across to it and seated himself down. He took out a double folded photograph wallet, with a family picture on one side and just Miriam Barton on the other side. They were all smiling at him. He beamed back at them. He clutched the leather wallet close to his chest. He unstrapped his own case and began to unpack, taking his shaving things out. Coulter had brought up a white, enamel bowl filled with water earlier on. The bowl itself was as big as his own hands when he cupped them together. Barton dipped a finger into the water. It was cold. He began lathering his face with his shaving brush, whilst humming to himself. He could hear the distant booming of rifle grenades, so he stopped and listened intently, rather intrigued. He wiped his face clean on a rough towel and walked over to the elongated window. He reached out a hand to open it and fresh air greeted him carrying with it an aroma of crisp, burning leaves. He looked down upon a fringe of trees studded with rich- coloured berries brimming with juice. A filthy- looking dog was slouched across some cobbles chewing on a bone enthusiastically. Conkers were littered on the ground like pearls of polished mahogany. Autumn. A stone pathway had embedded itself in the thick, long grass. The canvas of a sky was beginning to dim turning into grey slate. The silhouette of the village of Percelle could be outlined distinctly in the distance. Barton had been standing there, perched on the rusty hinges of the window for a while now soaking in the atmosphere, whilst nibbling on a slab of Chocolate Menier, devouring the enriching flavour. The strong perfume of the burning leaves curling with the heat was making him feel rather hazy. He went back over to the armchair, and opened his copy of The Turn of the Screw. For a while he was absorbed by the contents of this novel, but kept getting distracted thinking about his family. His mother would probably be in the kitchen right now. Cooking. Barton’s sister alongside her, sitting on the stool, beside the sink, keeping her mother company. He missed their presence already. He could the hear sound of voices directly below him. He stopped to listen. There were two men. One had quite a deep, rasping voice and the other had a much softer, gentle voice. He felt he was back at school again. He began to drift slowly off to sleep, and started to think about this “John Hilliard” who he was soon to be acquainting himself with. He felt tense. He swivelled around to take once last glance at the blemished, leather trunk and the walking stick, carefully propped up against the wall, in a very upright manner. Why were there very little belongings, he thought? Even the trunk itself was rather small. No family pictures lovingly placed on the side of his camp bed, or magazines, or newspapers thrown carelessly on to the camp bed. At once Barton heard the ruffled sound of footsteps beneath him. He opened his eye In answer to the first answer..I copied and pasted it from word doc :P and thank you for taking the time to read..much appreciated
Sharp Chest Pains? Trouble Breathing? Head Aches? Hi, thanks for answering in advance :) I am a 17 year old female, who is having bad chest pains, head aches, and having a pretty hard time breathing. I'll give a little background about my living condision and such; I live with my mom, she is a smoker; but she smokes in her room or out side, i'm never directly near it. I don't drink, smoke, or do drugs at all. I was diagnosed with Severe Depression and Stress Anxiety about six months ago and was put on Lithium but I never took it. I like to deal with the "stress" on my own. Anyway, so then I was also prescribed an enhailer Albuteral to open up my lungs when I get a anxiety attack. I rarely have to use it. So two days ago, at around 11 am, at school I started having a massive headache. The kind of headache around my eyes, I was sensitive to the noise not light. Then around, 1:30-2 pm I started feeling faint, my teacher said she was feeling kinda faint too, but my head was on my desk ready to pass out. I've never felt like this before, so I asked her to go out side and I went out. I was feeling little nasueaous, but not to the point where it bothered me. I was starting to get extreamly tired, but I was able to stay awake. Then 10 minutes later I was feeling weak. So I got home at around 3:00 pm and the chest pains were starting to go on, I assumed it was my anxiety or something like that. I also assumed it could be allergies, but it's raining (I live in Washington) so I doubt that could be it, especially in Autumn. I usally go to bed at around 11, but I went to be at 9 that night. Which is a huge change to me, I don't get that much sleep either. Then yesterday I woke up and couldn't breathe again, worse than the day before. I had sharp pains in my upper chest, and towards night time I had one really sharp pain below my breasts, like in between my belly button and the ending of my breasts. (What to call that i don't know lol) and I got this pain as soon as I breathed in. In total, yesterday I had to use my enhailer 5 times (two puffs each) and it only worked for a short period of time. So anyway, this is the third day and i'm getting a tad bit better. I still feel weak, unmodivated, and very tired. I now feel a little pressure in my chest, but not sharp pains anymore. I'm afraid tonight it's going to come back again. What could this be? Please no "CALL 911 RIGHT NOW" because it's not a emergancy. My Grandparents will be home this weekend and if I must go to the doctor I will. I have no bad heart condicions in my family history. My Grandma had me checked for high cholestoral and it was normal. I'm not feeling stressed at all, can anyone help me? My Grandma also has Asthma, but no one else in my family does. I doubt it's asthma but it's possible that could be part of it.

Experienced Pagans: Help!? I have been skeptical about my spirituality for several years now and I discovered wicca last autumn through my aunt's brother-in-law. I am curious about it and I want to learn more about this path. But there are so many books on the subject and so many writers who claim to know everything, but write for people who think wicca is some stupid high school fad. I want real, reliable information because I am serious about studying this, but I am so overwhelmed! I have been looking at some books in Barnes and Noble and a few other bookstores, but most sort of just teach you how to jump right in and start casting circles and doing candle magic with no real background. I want to know the history and beliefs, something that will give me a solid foundation, but I can't find any! I'm serious about finding my own spiritual path. I would ask my aunt's brother-in-law, but he lives in Canada (I live in the US) and I'm not that familiar with my aunt (she is my uncle's second wife and they've only been married for about two years). Can someone who really knows what they're doing please suggest some good reading material and give me some advice?
Can anyone give me a good high resolution Fall/Autumn path picture...? ...similar to the one seen here: http://www.beautifulcynicism.ca/wp-content/uploads/2006/09/fall-forest.jpg I'll rate the person with the picture of my choice high if there are falling leaves! I'm using it as a background in a pictorial I'll be in... I'll be edited into the picture so it needs to be in high resolution. Thanks! You can just post the link. =D
Woodland invertebrates? Can anyone help me with the following questions? (They are for some background research and I can't find the information on the internet). What is the expected detritivore and/or invertebrate population in British woodland? How does detrivore/invertebrate population change with the seasons? (I thought it would be more in autumn because of more leaf litter? But then what if it's a coniferous wood?) How does inverterbrate population change with maturity of woodland? What are the actual effects of fewer detritivrores? (I have that there would be less decomposition as detritivores break down organic matter to make this easier but apparently this isn't enough.) Haha. This is a last resort trust me. Do you really think I'd rather get my research of Yahoo Answers than a reputable website or book? Like I said, I can't find the answers to these questions online (and I can't go to a libary!). This is a tiny fraction of the research I've had to do for this work - the rest I have been able to find. It is the numbers I can't find online. The expected population of invertebrates in British woodland, the expected change in population size if the woodland is a monoculture nd/or an exotic species etc. I have general trends but not numbers!
