  • Are there any businesses that colorize black-and-white photos?

    You see, I have a small, gray-scale photo of my dearly departed Grandmother from the year 1945, and I've recently gotten a good scanner and produced a gorgeous HD digital rendering of the tiny picture. But now I would love to see if any businesses exist that could save me the hassle of trying to colorize her gorgeous face myself. I would love so truly to see her as she was, in a colorful, cheerful and vivid form.

  • Any iconic songs in history? Similar in significance to Katyusha?

    Katyusha was, and is, a very important song in Russian culture, which was the anthem for lovers and soldiers and even inspired the name of a rocket-launcher in WW2! But, now I'm curious: can someone tell me the names of some other songs that were the American, British, German, Italian, French, etc... equivalent of Katyusha at some point in history? Because every country has their famous songs; Mexico has a lot, I know because I'm Mexican, but I may not know all of the major songs from there either. So, please tell me the names of any of these major songs in history!

  • Does Resident Evil CodeL Veronica actually have a PC version?

    I'm not exactly a huge consumer of modern systems, but I do have a decent PC to play the more popular games that get their own PC port. I realize that RE: CV can be emulated, but my processor would not handle it very effectively and it doesn't have a great visual quality. Please answer with a link or some source; I'd love to play this game on PC as it's my favorite video game!

  • Please revise the following petition and respond with your thoughts on the legitimacy of this demand?

    It is a well-known fact that the United States of America are in an economic crisis and are struggling to avoid hopping over the fiscal cliff. In these times of turbulence, it seems almost recommendable to revise our management of petroleum-demand satisfaction. Would this petition solve our problems, or at least be a stepping stone to economic survival? If you agree, please sign this petition, and if not, describe in absolute detail the major flaws of nationalization. I realize that our neighbor to the south of us, and most other nations of the world in fact, have national oil enterprises which charge relatively equal prices to ours for gasoline; in fact, the Chinese government artificially reduces the price of their gasoline! Also, it would assist the government by being able to produce direct petrol revenue and not have to impose high taxes on companies who would protest against the government, thus making the job crisis and economy even worse in such a case!

  • This goes for everyone who has ever published the traditional way with an agent!?

    Okay, so I'm 14 years old and that truly does cause me to feel anxiety upon my venture into the world of commercial literature, so I'm not very well equipped to jump into publishing. I have tried the simplistic search-engine route but my queries are tragically ignored; last time I tried was over 6 months ago so I'm ready to try again. Can someone please recommend to me a good agent who won't run around with up-front charging scams and will guide me through the process. My book is an 81000 word sci-fi/ gothic horror set in a non-steampunk, WW3-scenario future. Read my other question regarding a title for the book to better know the plotline. Please help? :D

  • Here is a set of writing-related questions I need help on. Can you help?

    Okay, so first thing's first; if anybody here knows a publisher or traditional publishing agent directly, PLEASE help me by giving me some contact information and etcetera, etc.

    Now, I require a title to something; how would YOU name the following story:

    It's the year 2038, and a global alliance spawned from the UN's remnants called the AATD (Alliance Against the Darkness) is at war with an unknown species called the "dark bodies" for their hideous resemblance to human sillhouettes. One particular soldier in this war, Officer Jennifer Ketz of the elite AATD 20 squadron, is the daughter of a deceased AATD scientist named Emily Ketz. Later on, the conflict slowly elevates to reveal a hyper-occult terrorist syndicate known as the Medtchita and Jennifer discovers the origins of the dark bodies. Her own father, Richard Ketz, was a CIA agent who discovered a murky comet in Moscow, the "Dark Star", which overtook him and transformed his genetic structure. All the dark bodies were originally spawned from his asexual body. Several other major characters appear in the first-person perspective and each recount tales of loss and revenge.

    So yes, I'd love to see how YOU would name it. It's an 81000 word novel I'm trying to publish :D By the way, I'm fourteen so how can I best protect my rights and how can I best get published without taking the terrible Vanity route?

    Thank you for your time!

  • I need an honest answer from you all. Do you believe whether or not marijuana is worth the high?

    I realize that there is definitely a lot of worthless propaganda spread by organizations that is simply not true, but I can tell from experience that some of it is definitely true. I will never try any of that ****, but I know from my up-close and personal encounters with it that it will ultimately ruin a person personality-wise. Everybody I have encountered is a complete imbecile with a horrible case of paranoia and a lack of purpose in life; also, regardless of the other propaganda spread about, one can't argue that your brain is quite affected by it all. Sure, even Obama did that ****, but he's an idiot regardless of whether he is president or not. So, I just want in honest opinion with some legitimate research and detail. Please, no answers symbolic of the trashiness that I have encountered with the substance that is now legal here in California.

  • I need to find a good playstation 2 emulator; help?

    I need something that will already have the necessary stuff to play right away. No purchases of random plug-ins and what-not. I run a Sony Vaio laptop with Windows 7 and an AMD Vision E2 processor with Dual Core and AMD Radeon graphics. I'll accept any help I can get in this matter.

  • Not to be a sissy or anything, but could someone help me with a personal issue?

    I am considerably young, and long story short, in love. The only problem is that, quite frankly, I'm a guy, and so is he. He kind of always acted just a bit like he accepted my sexuality (he was definitely aware of it) and I like him very much (to not have to say the other L word). I liked a relative of his, it went horribly, and now we go to different schools; I didn't get to talk to him at the end of the year because he didn't come that day, but I really, sincerely think he's just a portion of my life to me. I want to help him in life, that's all, but I'm not sure if he'd even bother to spit in my direction nowadays. Could somebody hep me, because I feel like my life is missing purpose if I can't support him like I used to.

  • How do you install Platinum Arts Sandbox? The newest version, please.?

    I have tried to download the Platinum Arts Sandbox game maker, but the download doesn't seem to be the full size when it is completed and it says something like "cannot install, contact program vendor". I have always wanted to make my own game, so I'd appreciate any and all help in this matter.

  • Is 80000 words a good length for my novel? I am thirteen years old.?

    I am at 56000 words so far in my novel, but I have been filled with disconsolation recently because I just haven't heard about many thirteen year olds who get anywhere with their writing. I know the content is more important than the word count, but is this a good length anyhow?
