Q&A: Where The Wild Things Are Photography Help?
Question by Megan Bowyer: Where The Wild Things Are Photography Help?
Okay so we’re doing an assessment for a photography portfolio board and we had to choose a book on which we would base it upon. I chose Where The Wild Things Are but I can’t think of any subject matter that I could use apart from a crown and a boat. Any help? We also have to develop the idea throughout the portfolio, over a series of sixteen photos. So i need a range of subject matter to do with the book.
Or should i do a different book? Any suggestions?

No, don’t do a different book. You’re doing one of the best books, i mean there is so much creativity in there, i don’t see how you can’t develop anymore ideas than just a crown and a boat.
The movie is coming out this year, go view the trailer to see if you can find good ideas from what the directors have developed, also take your mind off a typical subject matter (like objects and stuff like that). Try let your mind wander, take an abstract approach.
I mean, isn’t that what the book is about really? the boys imagination?
How about a little kid? costume design? something amongst that 
What do you think? Answer below!
My dog died. Will you help me?
Question by Wind On The Water: My dog died. Will you help me?
Well… it looks like I got started and could not stop easily. This is long but so is my pain. What I am asking from you is on the very last several sentences of this “book” in case you get bored with my rambling on. I thank you for your time and patience and input in advance. I said my dog died. My Daisy was alot more than a dog. She has been my faithful companion every moment for right at 10 years. She followed me everywhere – even to the bathroom where she would wait patiently outside the door. She was with me everywhere and slept spooned up against the back of my legs as I always lie on my side. She knew when my knees and feet hurt and she would lick them and the pain always lessened. She would lie on her back and hitch around making progress toward me by the inch while snorting and grunting and trying to get my attention so I could tell her how cute she was. She wagged her tail every time she saw me. She brought my blood pressure down and made me smile. And she smelled clean and sweet even though I rarely bathed her. Daisy liked other animals and had a great friendship with my huge male rat, Little Bit. When Little Bit was a youngster he got out of his cage and I knew he was dead as I found him lying between Daisy’s paws. I liked to have screamed in terror but I looked closer and beheld a very curious scene. Little bit was on his back and was holding on to Daisy’s big black nose with his tiny paws, and Daisy was nuzzling and licking the little guys tummy! It was so delightful to witness. My beautiful dog was full of tiny tales of wonder like this all through our 10 year life together.
Our fairy tale ended last week. We live way out in the country at the end of a quiet little road. The dogs have always remained free due to our isolation and their habit of staying in the yard. In summer they are inside during the day because Malamutes and the Florida heat/humidity are incompatible.There was a small vacant trailer in our backyard and this woman moved in. She has a high board fence surrounding her with a stout gate. Only too late I discovered she had been throwing her garbage out the back door and not bothering to close her gate at night. Daisy had scavenged in the garbage and obviously contracted botulism. .We had just paid rent for the month and the bank account showed $ 35.00. Not one single vet would work with us in any way, shape or form. Daisy lingered in a pain filled pitiful state for 4 days and crept underneath the hedge and never came out again alive.
What a nightmare things have been since Daisy died last week. I am lonely. I am angry at the new woman next door. I am very angry with myself. The house seems so empty now and no longer feels like a home. The grief I feel over my dog is more painful than what I felt at my father’s death. I wonder if this horrible sense of needless loss will ever depart. I am writing this in hopes that telling our story will ease just a small amount of this overwhelming grief.
So please, pretty please with a cherry on top – help me by telling me something cute, lovable or extraordinary about your favorite animal buddy. I don’t want condolences or finger pointing. Just something light hearted that will take my mind off her death for a few minutes I cannot put in words how much it will be appreciated.I
Mon. morning: Thank you so much for your kind words and descriptions of your lovely furry or geathered friends. My world does seem a little bit brighter now. BUT… there is absolutely no way I am going to be able to pick a best answer. Please forgive me.
I do have 2 other dogs – Daisy’s 17 year old Malamute mom and a delicate dobie/black lab cross abandoned by her owners .

My cat hopped into the shower with me. She hates water and has never done this before usually she only watches… it was so funny… As far as I can understand it was so nice and warm she didn’t realize for a moment she was getting wet. She bolted as soon as she did though made me laugh.

Help me understand this guy, a little long but I’ll love you forever!?
Question by .: Help me understand this guy, a little long but I’ll love you forever!?
So, I met this guy the last 2 weeks of college and dated him for 2 months LD over the summer after that. He wasn’t over his long ago ex gf at the time so he wasn’t ready for an “official” relationship. We talked every day, he genuinely missed me, loved being around me (when I visited he took me everywhere with him), said I always made him so happy, even invited me to go on vaca with him and his fam but I couldn’t go. Then the week after I visited I found out he went on a date with another girl, and a few days later I broke it off with him b/c I knew he couldn’t be that into me. When we broke up he said there was another, different girl (not the date girl) that he had been hanging out with that wanted to date him and he liked her too but hadn’t made any moves b/c “it didn’t feel right with what we had going on.” Long story short, he was in an “official” relationship with her 8 days later and has been for 2 months.
A week after that though he imed me eagerly on fb saying “how are you???” then liked a status, then talked to me again asking to go to lunch once I was back on campus. He has now stopped iming me, but did pop up on MSN two times (our LDR communication that he stopped when we broke up). We have now been on campus together for 2 weeks and he has not contacted me..,although, I did have to deactivate my fb for my sorority and I never contact him so maybe he thinks I avoid him? Idk, please help me understand?
I feel over him enough. Why hasn’t he contacted me in so long though? Does he want nothing to do with me? I thought he at least genuinely liked me as a friend and it’s not like I ever made him feel awkward in the situation…

Answer by Cuckoo
All Quiet on the Western Front (German: Im Westen nichts Neues) is a novel written by Erich Maria Remarque, a German veteran of World War I. The book shows the war’s horrors and also the deep detachment from German civilian life felt by many men returning from the front. The novel was first published in November and December 1928 in the German newspaper Vossische Zeitung and in book form in late January 1929.

Question by hoonoki: I am trying to find a children’s book I read over a decade ago. Can you help?
The problem is that I remember so little of the book that I can’t even search it. I know it was published before 1995, and is possibly much older. All I have is a vague memory of a village, a large old tree, and I think some kind of magical element. Maybe a magician. The village might be wrong. It’s sort of a quiet book. If you have any ideas, please let me know!

My 3 month old screams, I’m pulling out my hair help!?
Question by Saint Radio: Rocco’s Momma: My 3 month old screams, I’m pulling out my hair help!?
My three month old just recently started this. He has never been a “colic” baby. Recently if we are anywhere but our apartment and he wants to go to sleep he SCREAMS! He absolutely goes nuts and nothing I do (short of getting in the car and driving home) will get him to be quiet. I’m yanking out my hair. I like to go to my moms house while my boyfriend works, but it seems I can’t anymore with my baby boy’s new found home attachment.
Any advice? Did anyone go through something similar? I just need to know how I can calm him down or a way to calm myself down when he won’t stop crying, sometimes I’m on the verge of tears myself.
I guess some people didn’t read my question, he’s not hungry, he’s not in pain, he only does this when we aren’t our apartment, it’s like he’s homesick.

How Do I Help My Baby To Sleep Better?
June 23, 2010 by BabyCare
Filed under Baby Problems
- Image via Wikipedia
Sleeping problems are often caused by poor sleeping associations created unknowingly by parents. A sleep association is something that a baby learns that signals sleep to them.
But this is easily corrected, especially when they are still a few months old.
Sleep is a high priority for all new parents.
As every parent knows, the early days can be really difficult, as babies are up every few hours in the night looking for a feed. Some babies sleep really well from the outset, but these children are rare indeed. The majority of parents experience difficulties with sleep deprivation, and unfortunately for some, this can last well into the toddler years and beyond.
So how do you create a better sleeping environment for your baby?
There are lots of things you can do to help create the right sleep associations and avoid the bad ones. A sleep association is essentially what the baby associates with going to sleep – in other words it is a learned response. Babies are clever because they get to know these associations by repitition – the more you do a certain behaviour before they sleep, the more they associate that behaviour with sleep itself. So for example, if you always bath the baby before bedtime, they will get to know in time that bathtime signals sleep time.
The trick is to create sleep associations which work without reliance on the parent to help the child to sleep
Some examples of poor sleep associations includes:
- rocking baby to sleep
- holding baby to sleep
- patting/stroking baby
- nursing or feeding baby to sleep
- use of a dummy
Why are these poor sleep associations?
Because they work by allowing the baby to rely on either you or a pacifier to help them sleep. This creates long-term problems because each time your child wakes at night, they will require your assistance to help put them back to sleep.
Imagine you always rock baby to sleep. As wonderfully nurturing as it seems, what will you do when the child gets older and heavier and puts pressure on your back because you are struggling to rock your toddler to sleep – something that can take an hour or so in some cases?
The best solution is creating sleep associations that do NOT rely on you to help them sleep. These can include:
- creating a routine
- winding down
- dimming the lights and speaking softly
- placing tired baby in cot in the dark and calming them down by speaking softly and not picking them up
- differentiating between night and day
- removing the dummy before baby falls asleep
- never allowing baby to sleep in your arms
- always let baby sleep in the cot
These are just some suggestions, but there are many other things you can and should do to improve sleep. If you stick to your guns, you should see an improvement in sleep patterns within a week, and certainly within two weeks. With older children, you may need to resort to sleep training methods to help them sleep soundly. Learning the correct behaviour takes time, but the above mentioned ideas are the best way to help a newborn learn the correct sleep habits that will set them up for a lifetime.
