I know (Or at least have heard) that it's disrespectful to put anything on top of the face of the Qur'an and I respect that as much as I can. But if it's on a shelf surrounded by other books, what's the doctrine then? Is it sacrilegious for an infidel such as myself to have it surrounded by other books? Is there anything against it touching other religious texts?

When I was little I had a CD of several Bach songs. Track #2 was Jesu, Joy of Man s Desiring. It was sold at Target for several years by their sampler machine that now has Lifescapes CDs. Not sure if this one was produced by Lifescapes. The cover art was the profile of... Maybe an angel statue colorized green or brown, depending on the release. Anyone have any idea where I can find this specific CD?

I'm working on a screenplay, consciously trying very VERY hard to pass the Bechdel test in nearly every scene, and for the most part it comes naturally.

The most troublesome scene, however, features two female characters, long-lost cousins, bonding over their interest in history. I need some brief exposition about their father/uncle respectively, along with their entire family, and this is the best place to mention it.

Would briefly talking about a very minor male family member invalidate the whole scene?

I'm gathering a group of people to mop up the last few achievements in Halo 2 PC, 3, ODST, Reach, 1 Anniversary, and 4. This includes co-op legendary campaign, multiplayer (Although not all maps can still be played), and firefight/Spartan Ops. I ask that you be respectful of the other players' desire to get achievements. Don't just play for your own gain and quit. Also, it is preferred that you have at least some DLC, though not required.

Anyone?

I have the Mass Effect games for Xbox 360, and I'm registered for the Cerberus network and therefore have Zaeed. But I'm switching to PS3 soon. I know he comes with the PS3 version too, but since the DLC is registered through EA and not Xbox, could I log into my EA account on a PS3 and download Zaeed across platforms? Does the same go for Reckoner Knight armor for ME3?

NOTE: If you don't feel like reading this whole thing, skip to the last 3 lines, and look back at the prices for each scenario

I'm switching from Xbox 360 to PS3. I don't want answers like "Don't switch," "Switch to Wii/PC/3DS/64/Dreamcast/Pong," "hAl0 sUx @$$," etc.

Which scenario do you guys think is best?

[The following is copied and pasted from Skype, so if any useless personal details are in here that I forgot to remove, please ignore them.

Where it says Halo, pretend it's YOUR favorite series of anything, be it games, movies, books, TV shows, etc, and you were only allowed to play/read/watch the first 2 books/movies/games/seasons]

Scenario A: Buy PS3, replace 360 games with PS3, give a friend Halo 2 and get a $30 game free (minus shipping):

--$281 (including 360 games replaced by PS3 ones) plus future PS3 games

Scenario B: SELL EVERYTHING LIKE A MANIAC INCLUDING 360 AND HALO:

--$114.75

DON'T SUGGEST THESE. I RAN THE NUMBERS:

Scenario C: If I keep all my 360 games and start fresh with PS3, it'll be more expensive than all the other scenarios.

Scenario D: I keep my 360 and Halo games, but can't play my other 3 favorite games.

--$270,

Also, if this is done after June 28, all prices go up $35

Short version:

A makes the most sense, but is the most expensive.

B is the cheapest, but I sacrifice all Halo games except 1 and 2.

Thanks for your time and opinions!

I'm disgusted with the Xbox 1 even though I own a 360. The only reason I got it in the first place was for Halo. But I'm thinking about getting a PS2, 3, or 4 when 4 comes out.

What are some of the games and features worth buying any of them for? Final Fantasy X is already at the top of my list.

I know hardly any details have been released, but I don't follow Playstation stuff as I have an Xbox (Might get a PS4). Anyway, I'm pretty sure it's not backward compatible, but I wanted to double check with people who know what they're talking about

What is my mother's mother's sister's son, in relation to me? Second cousin?

I've got a bunch of PC games that I either don't want or don't work on my computer. Star Wars: The Force Unleashed, Star Wars: Empire at War Gold Pack, Halo 2, Bionicle: The Game, Bionicle Heroes, and Disc 1 of Mass Effect 2. Anyone interested?

Since a lot of latin-based languages have nouns before adjectives (i.e. the dog white sat in front of the house big), to say eternal darkness, would you say tenebrae invictus, or invictus tenebrae?

Throwing a party for a small group. High school. I want the party to be PG-13, tops. No drugs, beer, or making out in the other room. I've asked for suggestions, but I've gotten "Watch Elf," "Yahtzee," "Beer" (which I'm obviously not doing), and taco dip. This is my first party I'm throwing and I haven't been to many others. I need suggestions, and my crush is probably gonna be there. It's not a christmas party.

I've been working at my local state fair for the last 12 days and there was this girl I have a huge crush on that I worked with. I'm not the most social person and neither is she, but we talked a little and joked around. I was literally a second away from asking her out today when the boss came in and made her go do something else, and I didn't have a chance to talk to her for the rest of the day. And it was the last day today.

We had a lot in common and I like her more than any girl i've ever known. But I have no idea where she goes to school and she doesn't have a facebook or anything. I'll probably see her next year, but I can't stop thinking about her even though I know there's no way I can talk to her for the next 11 1/2 months. I know I'll forget after a while, but it hurts so much right now. How do I get her out of my head in the next few days?

Don't answer with "Everyone is normal in their own way."

I'm 16, about to be a Junior, and I don't really have many friends. The few I have are really close, but most of the friends I've had either turn on me or move away. I never hang out with people, I've only had one girlfriend which was a long-distance relationship. I just started a job at my local state fair, and I've been working great with people and helping. People seem to like me there, but no one talks to me.

Now my favorite band's coming to town and I don't know if I want to go see them. i've been waiting forever for them to come here, but something's telling me not to go. This question isn't asking whether i should go or not. This is just asking if this is normal for a shy/introverted person.

Hi. I'm in a graphic design class at school, but I need to do something at home. I don't know of any good programs I can use instead of Illustrator. GIMP doesn't work for what I need to do.

Also, it needs to be for Windows.
