Question: Why is it that kids know how to use Yahoo Answers but not the rest of the Internet for homework help?

For example. Why not use dictionary.com for vocab questions? Why not answer history, biography, science, questions by doing a keyword search? Are kids too lazy to search the Internet for themselves, or have these computer wizzes been using computers all these years without learning to do research on the Internet?
It's kind of scary either way. If they're too lazy to take two minutes to find an answer, how will they ever contribute to their own support? If they're too stupid to use the Internet, how will they ever contribute to their own support?
Answer: I agree. With using YA, just how do they know for sure that the correct answer is given? Anyone with decent composition and a good vocabulary could fake them out with a totally erroneous bunch of BS.

Question: A good biography of Anne Boleyn?

I recently developed a slight obsession with Henry VIII and his court lol so I'm looking for good biographies of the wives, children and Henry of course!! but I'd like to begin with Anne please help!!
Answer: The biography by Eric Ives is probably the best in terms of accuracy and reputation. Avoid anything by Joanna Denny or Alison Weir; they have a tendency to be very biased.
For a decent all around bio of Henry's wives, try The Six Wives of King Henry VIII by Antonia Fraser.
David Starkey has also written extensively on the whole Tudor clan, and is considered a leading figure in the field. David Loades has also written several scholarly bios.
A great book on Catherine of Aragon that is currently out of print is Garrett Mattingly's Catherine of Aragon.

Answer: Hahaha. I have a few ideas, but this one popped out immediately

Question: Does anybody know a good biography on Julia Child (book)?

Well, im doing an autobiography on Julia Child and i need a book thats about 200-300 pages. I heard of the book, " An Appetite for Life" but i heard its pretty boring. I need a biography thats filled with information from when she was born in America to when she decided to make a cook book to wehn she died. Any suggestions would help
THANKS SO MUCH :]
Answer: I just had to write a research paper on her and trust me you wont find books that aren't boring. The "Appetite for Life" is a good informative book but it is boring, I suggest others like "Julia Child" by Laura Shapira or "My Life in France" by Julia Child herself.

Question: i need help on biography book report homework???please help me help?

paragraph 1..title,author,setting
paragraph 2 main characters(describe in detail)
paragraph 3 plot (problem and resolution)
paragraph 4 theme/moral
no spelling or grammer errors
at least 7 sentaces per paragraph
i need to higher my grade please help
Answer: What exactly do you expect people here to do? Write it for you? E-mail you a paper they've already done? I count seventeen spelling and grammar errors just in your alleged "question" alone. What kind of "help" are you looking for? If you have a lousy grade right now it is most likely owing to the very poor writing skills you have already demonstrated by your previous work. If you were to suddenly turn in a paper that had no spelling or grammar errors -- when you can't even write a simple question here -- it would be immediately obvious to any marginally competent teacher that it was not your own work and you would receive a failing grade anyway for cheating.
You have two ways you can go about this: 1) Get pissed off at me for calling you out and learn nothing or 2) Seek out a writing tutor at school or in your local area. If you can't find a tutor there are several books available designed specifically to help writers craft their work (e.g. "A Writer's Reference"). You should be able to find one at a library and you're likely to find people there who would be willing to help you if you genuinely want to become a better writer (such as the librarians who work at the reference desk).
If you are struggling with your grades because you don't read well or you have a condition such as dyslexia, there are resources available to help you there too. Talk to your teacher after class and tell him or her that you sincerely want to do better but you're struggling with the material. It is a rare teacher who WON'T help out a student who shows a genuine desire to overcome his or her difficulties.
If you are simply too bored/lazy/distracted by whatever useless pop-culture icon it is you're worshiping this week to do the work assigned to you then there isn't anything anyone here is going to be able to do to help you -- nor should they.

Teaching your child or children about science by use of an 8th grade science project, but also teaching them responsibility and curiosity about the world around them.

Most people have learned or simply understand that having their child complete an 8th grade science project can encourage their child to develop instincts about timeliness, organization, and over all dependability while whetting their appetite for knowledge. Helping your child or children choose a good topic for their 8th grade science project may seem hopeless, but most parents fail to follow the first rule involved in finding the best 8th grade science project. That rule is "Let the child or children choose a topic for their 8th grade science project." Sometimes you have to take a step back and really listen to your child or children. This might be a good chance to let them find something that interests them and by completing an 8th grade science project on their chosen topic, they are learning something they were interested in, which could serve to encourage them, in the future, to choose better topics for research.

Making learning enjoyable is one of the most important things a teacher can do, and by assigning an 8th grade science project, they are encouraging the 8th graders to be creative and intelligent. The children are allowed to pick a topic for their 8th grade science project that interests them and also serves to educate them in some way about something they were clueless about prior to choosing the said 8th grade science project. You may find yourself surprised at the choice your child or children makes concerning their 8th grade science project, and as long as it is nothing harmful, offensive, or generally negative, allowing them to make the decision gives them a sense of control, no matter how small, over something in their life which helps to encourage them to take responsibility for something they are doing.

Although you may want to help them with their 8th grade science project, you must remember to maintain a reasonable distance to everything being done. Checking their progress on their 8th grade science project is a good idea and helps them realize they must be held accountable for the project, but actually doing their project, no matter how small the action, will only teach them that they are not required to carry any responsibility for anything, that Mom or Dad will cover for them and do the work if they do not. Not only does this make the 8th grade science project a lesson in laziness, but also ruins any chance of your child or children learning to act for themselves and take responsibility for their actions, if only for an 8th grade science project.

Nowadays, parents of music-oriented kids are worried about how to get their children off their computers and other electronic gadgets and instead have them spend more time on their pianos mastering their piano-playing skills. This is a problem a lot of parents worry about these days when children learn early the amazing features and properties of the Internet. What they don't know is that they could actually get the help of the Internet to get their kids more interested in music and in piano playing-and that is having them enrolled in piano lessons online.

So you're looking for more interesting and more interactive ways to get your child interested in playing the piano?

You can get started by acquiring piano software coupled with piano lessons online. These materials provide a great avenue for your child to learn more the basics of piano playing as compared to getting him or her under more expensive tutorials with a private piano instructor.

Enrolling your kid online for his piano lessons will give you a great array of benefits as opposed to having him registered in the boring community or neighborhood piano lessons or the regular classroom piano lessons. For one, you will notice that piano lessons online provide a wide selection of courses to choose from. You can opt to have your child enlisted in basic piano lessons or the more specialized ones like gospel piano lessons or jazz piano lessons.

You are also given the option to pick the level of difficulty of the lessons that you can have your child enrolled in.

Also, piano lessons online are a lot cheaper than getting your child a private piano teacher that you need to pay by the hour. Some parents have discovered that one-on-one piano lessons normally get their kids intimidated and have them less enthusiastic compared to giving them complete freedom over the pace they can go with piano lessons on the Internet. Children who are coursing through gospel piano lessons, for example, find it more inspiring to learn online than with a personal tutor. So take time to weigh this advantage and see for yourself how pocket-friendly getting piano lessons online for your kid is.

Another benefit your child gets with getting his piano course or his gospel piano lessons online in particular is that he gets to manage his own time. He can log in whenever he feels like learning some new notes or a new piece and not feel any pressure. Obviously, no child seems to be enthusiastic about learning when he is made to feel some pressure for time or from instructions from a personal tutor. Online piano lessons will teach your child how to properly manage his time to accommodate his piano lessons together with his daily routine of playing and studying his other academic lessons.

There are actually a lot of perks that parents and kids alike can reap from completing piano lessons on the Web. That's a lot of savings for the parents, and discipline and more fun for the kids. So get your kids more interested with music by having them take their gospel piano lessons or pop piano lessons or jazz piano lessons on the Web.

Do you wish to have your kids interested in taking gospel piano lessons? Try enrolling him in piano lessons online and reap the benefits that it offers.

Question: Good biography of Beethoven?

As in, not like a website, but a book. Does anyone know of a good, accurate, and well-written biography of Ludwig van Beethoven?

Answer: the best is
Alexander Wheelock Thayer, Ludwig van Beethoven's Leben,
but there are 5 volumes of it!
for a lighter (and cheaper!) read you could try

As an increasing number of parents are beginning to inspire their kids for modeling, a number of these kids are getting interested in modeling on web sites. Being models on web sites is a nice way to begin your modeling career. The pay is not bad and you get to choose the kind of work you want to do as child models are required by thousands of web sites all over the world and the internet has made it very easy for both these child web models to get the kind of job they are looking for and the web sites to search for their appropriate model.

Child web models are in demand because many production companies look for children who can give a confident smile for the camera. Plus, if it is an ad for a product aimed at children, then the importance of child models becomes all the more vital. To begin one's career as a web model, you first have to make a professional portfolio of the child and get him or her registered as a model in one of the numerous modeling agencies that hire kids for modeling.

After you do that, the agency makes an online profile of the kid and posts it on the net. Production companies which need child web models can go through these model profiles and can choose the child model if they think the kid fits the bill of what they are looking for.

Of course web models can work on their own without being part of an agency. But an agency helps to get you some publicity. These agencies also show you the kinds of jobs that are available to kids for modeling. You can choose from among them and go for the one that suits you best. Most of these jobs require just photographs of web models that can be used in their web sites for online advertising. So after the companies choose from among the kid's photographs and find one that they can use, the production company pays the model and a part of that payment goes to the online modeling agency.

You can encourage your kids for modeling because modeling can be a great career for him or her. And it is not only children who can become web models. Older persons can become models on web sites as well. Do you have a photogenic face? Then you should give it a try as well. People who have been modeling online as children find it a little easier than rookies to enter the fashion modeling industry. And it also helps if the online modeling agency supplies models for fashion shows as well. That gives a huge head start for aspiring fashion models.

So, basically it is quite easy to become successful web model. There are no costly photo shoots of traveling involved in such modeling for web sites. You just need to have photogenic kids for modeling along with a good portfolio. The modeling agency takes care of the rest. They provide online groomers, experienced coordinators, and experts to ensure success for these web models.

You should inspire your kids for modeling and web models are a good way to begin
