Am I Studying The Right Things In College?

I am majoring in Film, Video & Media Studies, and minoring in Advertising & Promotion and Global & International Studies.
I want to make movie trailers more than anything. That or working in the music industry somehow, preferably as a sound mixer or an A&R rep. I’m not exactly sure what to study for the latter so I figured Advertising would be good for making trailers and for being an A&R rep. And considering I’m from Michigan (A.K.A. the state that God created as a cruel joke), I’m going to have to move out of state at some point if I ever want a good job. My back-up plan is to work for the US Department of State in one of the US embassies around the world if I can’t get into the film or music industries, since they are so competitive, and all the people lucky enough to be from California or New York or other places like that will have had more exposure to opportunities to gain experience.
My question is is there something else you think I should be studying? I have an internship with the local CBS affiliate coming up, so hopefully that will help, but I don’t have a lot of faith. I just don’t want to be a failure.

Who Was The Person That Said This Quote?

“It has been said that anything can happen here in the World Wrestling Federation, but now more than ever, truer words have never been spoken. This is a conscious effort on our part to “Open the Creative Envelope”, so to speak, in order to entertain you in a more contemporary manner. Even though we call ourselves “Sports Entertainment” because of the athleticism involved, the keyword in that phrase is “Entertainment”. The WWF extends far beyond the strict confines of sports presentation into the wide open environment of broad based entertainment. We borrow from such programs niches like soap-operas, like “The Days of Our Lives”, or, music videos such as those on MTV, Daytime talk-shows like “Jerry Springer” and others, cartoons like “The King of The Hill” on FOX, Sitcoms like “Seinfeld”, and other widely accepted forms of television entertainment. We, in the WWF, think that you, the audience, are quite frankly, tired of having your “intelligence insulted”.We also think that you’re tired of the same old simplistic theory of “Good Guys VS Bad Guys”. Surely the era of “The super-hero urge you to say your prayers and take your vitamins” is definitely, passe. Therefore, we’ve embarked on a far more innovative and contemporary creative campaign, that is far more invigorating and extemporaneous than ever before. However, due to the live nature of “RAW” and the “WarZone”, we encourage some degree of parental discretion, as relates to the younger audience allowed to stay up late. Other WWF programs on USA, such as “The Saturday Morning LiveWire”, and “Sunday Morning Superstars”, where there’s a 40% increase in the younger audience obviously, however, need no such discretion. We are responsible television producers who work hard to bring you this outrageous, wacky, wonderful world known as the WWF. Through some 50 years the World Wrestling Federation has been an entertainment main-stay here in North America, and all over the world.

Can Anyone Please Help Me Think Of Ideas For My Manga ?

I can draw , but my imagination sucks pretty much . ><
Well I thought of something like a girl named Anastasia Crespelle / Lemaitre and she's being captured in the Labyrinth in a church of a high school in Japan . The Labyrinth is based on the third level of the church which is out of bounds to people . Okay maybe not neccessarily out of bounds , but there's been this rumour that there's a ghost on the third level and intruders would be found missing . ( Maybe examples of intruders and real cause of getting missing ? )
But so ! There's this guy named Kaito and he's a freshman in that school . He can be a delinquent or a nice guy , it depends . He ventures into the third level of the church without knowing of the ' curse ' or rumour and sees Anastasia .
He then returns to the third level almost every single day for lunch ( as he has few / no friends ) and eventually gets to know Anastasia . She is a intelligent person , who can ' read ' minds from people's actions and the way they talk .
PROBLEM :
1. Why did Anastasia get captured and sent to the church in Japan ? ( She's some rich aristocrat's daughter by the way ) Is she a pawn or a traded object and affiliated with the school's heads ?
2. Very very important . How should this story continue ? Mystery ( of the school ) ? Or what ? It's going to end by having World War II and she getting reunited with Kaito after the war . How are they going to get separated ?
Best answer gets 10 points . Please help !!
Thank you ! (:

What Would Be The Best Place To Start Learning Math?

Math is not my strength by any means, but that is more tied to poor logic. I am very intuitive though and am greatly interested in acquiring the skills to pursue higher math. I’ve been through school and did okay in the classes, but I’ve never really understood WHY the problems are solved the way they are. I am a visual-kinetic learner and haven’t really found a niche to absorb math the way I’d like. I love astronomy, physics and meteorology and would like to pursue those interests further, but math is something that is always in the way. Do any of you know of a good place to start, as a refresher, that will challenge me and perhaps appeal to my learning style? Books? Websites? Thanks in advance.

In Paul Newsletter, Isn’t Stuff About Illegal Drug Sales Funding The Cia More Explosive Than The Racist Lines?

The jist of it is this:
The reason there is a federal war on drugs is because this ensures there is billions in black market profits (primary cash) available every year. Essentially the drug war doesn’t stop anything, it simply allows the government (and government entities) to control who makes the money. Obviously there would be more than enough to secret CIA missions all over the world.
The reason I ask, is because Ron Paul just doesn’t seem racist. But he DOES seem like someone who would actually believe something like this.
What do you think? Could it be true?
