I'm sure the midgets are very expensive. They're in short supply.

Then again, they can't be too expensive, because most people who want to buy them are always a little short on cash.

Well, I'm sure they could trade moonshine for them, but it only comes in half pints.

This AC was funny because it was an AC. To make fun of dwarfs is NOT funny... it's disrespectful.

The PC term is "little people"
July 27, 2012 at 10:23 pm
No. They prefer to be referred to as "little people." The actual proper term is dwarf.
Such as "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs."
There's also a TV show; "Little People, Big World."

I would say midgets now a days are $10.00 +tax, Lol.
Aimee Bachman:
July 26, 2012 at 3:02 pm
its not disrespectful. everyone knows they don't have kneecaps, hence they are not real people, but walking lawn knomes. I agree with 10.00 + tax. that sounds about right lol.

Video Industry News Video Company News Technology Industry News Technology Company News Novelty Industry News Novelty Company News Gay Industry News Gay Company News Legal Industry News All Company News
Released: May 01st, 2002
Running Time: 80
Director: Tom Stone
Company: Silverstone Entertainment
Distribution Companies: Odyssey Group Video
Cast: Moon, Tawny Roberts, Lana (I), Carlos (I), Mark Anthony (I), Shaina, Jamaica, Caroline (I), Fabiana, Ricky (I)
Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: Gonzo
PickUp Lines and Peeping Tom customers.
The real-life background (if there were some interviews, it could be a gonzo) is the selling point here, with five scenes out of the Silverstone camp with an emphasis on actually reflecting the shoot rather than the well-crafted completed post-produced scenes that make their PickUp Lines and Video Adventures of Peeping Tom lines so successful.
"Real" moments include Moon turning on a cold shower over the head of her unwitting stud, catching him by surprise and cracking everybody up, including, eventually, the stud; sun-kissed blonde Tawny Roberts cleaning up after a facial pop and being told, "There's some on your forehead"; and Shaina jokingly telling Mark Anthony his unit is too big and can he cut some off, followed by a crew member suggesting that Anthony "share the wealth."
The casual real-time atmosphere may turn some viewers off, but the sex is solid and the high reality level is a draw in some circles.

Fakemon - Savanion by nyausiWatch
©2009-2016 nyausi
Remember the lion Fakemon? Here is a redo of it, along with its female evolution. There will be an evolution between the cub and this one...at some point.
Um I have see a real Pokémon in the new book that look just like yours
Amazing. It looks like a pokemon. going off of its simplistic design, I'm going to assume it's normal type? I wouldn't mind having this over the lion we got in gen 6, haha.
I wasn't a fan of that one, could have gone many more ways, other than just a lion with a fire mane.
interesting by any chance do you think this had something to with the fire lion in x and y
these look way better than the lion pkmn in the new gen
the hair on that male one in the new gen is straight up hilarious
these have a much sleeker, cohesive look
great job
the hair on that male one in the new gen is straight up hilarious
these have a much sleeker, cohesive look
great job
Looks a lot better than Pyroar in my opinion.
Can you predict the future? Cause the top fakemon looks a lot like the new 6th gen Pyroar.
The top one looks a lot like one of the new ones in gen 6.
Now this is a fakemon I would surely have on my team.
That is awesome!
Is this looks like the female and male versions of this fakemon.
it is...
I like how you've balanced the curves with angles.
Very creative, quite good! I like them a lot!
mind if I go over these sketches and put them on deviantart I'll give you credit
I really like this!
I like how you also did a female version, now if only they would do that with Luxray.
I like how you also did a female version, now if only they would do that with Luxray.
The male Savanion needs a MUCH larger, flaming mane with fire-tipped tail (as well as the female) and you'll need to look up pokemon eyes to replace the ones in the picture. Love it otherwise!
I want them because lions rock and they remind me of my real name. Hehe.
pokemon said i can make a new pokemon cos my friend works for them and they like him he made a salamence evolution and its coming in the next game so i might make this one cos i really like this
oooooo i like them their cool
simba 8D
wahhh good idea! they'd look so cute as sprites
wow i really like these, somehow i like the female's face better, but the mane owns! eyes are kinda luxioish but i dont care, pretty awesome still, improvement of the previous ones. are you going to redo the hyenas and the baby forms? i dont know how you could improve the hyena cos i reckon it looks pretty good as is
I wish this was in the games! I'd play it just to get one of these! its great!
It's nice. I like it.
I didn't think we'd see a proper lion pokemon. These are pretty good.
molaria que hiceras lo mismo que con los zorros pero con los felinos que mencionas en el comentario del dibujo de los zorros
muy bonitos
muy bonitos
Ooooh, they're so graceful. :3
beautiful!! i envy your ideas & style!!
I love it, best Lion fakemon i've seen. Well one of them
Types? I can't be bothered to go looking for the old one

Paul Tateosian was just doing his job one day when this golden ball of fluff walked up to him, begging for pets. The house Paul was inspecting had been vacant for awhile, so he knew he had to take this little guy home. Paul, if you're reading this, please name your new cat "Ron Swanson". It's what the internet wants.
What do stray cats do all day? They search for food, they look after their kittens, and they take naps whenever possible. This sad photo diary is a good reminder to always spay/neuter pets! You can see a few more pictures from this photographer over on Instagram.
A Brazilian stray dog had quite a tough life on the street that left him with no exercise and extra helpings of unhealthy food.
Once ridiculed for his 80 pounds as he made his way around with great difficulty due to bad joints and breathing problems, the committed canine has a new leash lease on life.
The 22-year-old athlete and avowed animal lover is planning on taking four puppies and their mother back to the states with him after discovering them under a security tent where they lived outside of a media center in Sochi. He tweeted that he's doing all he can to prep mama dog and her pups by giving them their necessary vaccinations. "I'm trying...I'm doing what I can," he says, also stating that he's found potential homes for the dogs stateside.
This skier may have won the silver medal in his event, but he certainly has a heart of gold!

This location shouldn't bother if they're not even going to try. It was Saturday, which I imagine is a particularly busy day for any location, which I would also imagine is known to the employees. You wouldn't guess it by the service in Stayton. You would guess it was the guy's first day, based on his poor attitude and near incompetence. Apparently, not many people pay cash. This was made clear to me when the employee couldn't figure out how that might work - me paying upon return - since he only planned to be open until about 10 am. What kind of business is open for two hours on one of its busiest days? A shitty one. U-haul.
Cannot improve any more - excellent help!
Great support over the phone from Jeff, he even went out of his way to follow up with his personal phone after his business phone & computer crashed. He followed up with Uhaul's 800# to make sure I was given the discounts quoted to me over the phone!
The rep at Laser was Excellent !! Helpful and Friendly and went the distance to make us happy
There was some confusion and overlap in the booking process
Great service
Friendly, efficient service.
Reserved online and only had option for a 2 day rental. Needed the truck for the weekend so I figured I could let thdm know when I went to pick it up. Found out I could not rent it for the weekend. Would be nice to have the option online to rent for more than 2 days.

Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen announced
Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen has just been announced by Capcom at TGS. It's a major expansion to the original that will allow players to transfer their old game save across.
IGN reports that it's a full game, and is heading to PS3 and Xbox 360. It will allow players of the original Dragon's Dogma to transfer their saves across, and although the game has only been announced for a Japanese release, we'll keep our eyes open for information regarding a Western edition.
UPDATE: We've since learned via Eurogamer that Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen is not a sequel, it is a major expansion for the original game.
Eurogamer also reports that the original Dragon's Dogma is to get free DLC in the near future that add both a speed run mode and a harder difficulty setting into the mix. As if it wasn't hard enough.
Sometimes we include links to online retail stores. If you click on one and make a purchase we may receive a small commission. For more information, go here.

As Ramadan comes to an end for another year the Egypt celebrates with a 3 day holiday of feasting and visiting family and friends. The streets are filled with good cheer and Ramadan candles shine brightly through the windows of every home. The wealthy give sizable gifts to the poor and even the poorest still find a little spare change to the give to the excitable children on the street. A brand new bank note is the best gift, for Ramadan everything must be shiny and new. So you find yourself making a beeline for the bank to cash in $10 to receive a wad of freshly minted notes and a handful of gold rimmed silver coins.
After 3 days of constantly being fed in the homes of your friends and family, our stomachs are full, our spirits are cheery and we look forward to the year ahead.

Argentina had inflation of about 30%. Of course, this didn't look so good and their government fired the entire department that calculates inflation. They hired new people and inflation calculated by these ''cleverer and more learned'' individuals dropped in half immediately. The Economist is right that numbers can be dodgy all over the world and on inflation they are always dodgy and always lower than what makes sense. This is true in the developed world as well but not to extent that we've seen in Argentina ... for now.

AbstractIn this proposed Phase II STTR program, QuesTek will apply its Materials by Design(TM) technology to the continued development of new high performance soft magnetic alloys. Working closely with the Air Force, with our OEM partner (Hamilton Sundstrand) and with our STTR research institution collaborator (Northwestern University), we have identified the critical performance criteria for new high performance soft magnetic materials including saturation magnetization, mechanical strength, alloy cost, magnetic hysteresis loses, temperature performance, and electrical resistivity. In Phase I, a series of prototype alloys that explore different aspects of our modeling and microstructural concept spaces were designed, produced at button scale, and tested for mechanical and magnetic performance. The results demonstrated the feasibility of QuesTek's alloy concepts, with observed improvements in alloy strength without a detriment in magnetic performance. In Phase II, Phase I results will be leveraged to design, produce, process and test a final alloy composition at intermediate scale and, eventually, full industrial scale and final product form (rolled strip). BENEFIT: The need for high performance soft magnetic alloys with improved strength, magnetization, and temperature capabilities is prevalent in numerous electrical motor and actuator applications, aerospace and otherwise. A high performance soft magnetic alloy with improved mechanical and magnetic properties could directly address requirements on Air Force and DoD platforms for higher power generation and actuator performance. New soft magnetic materials with increased strength, at the same magnetic performance, could lead to a reduction in power system size and weight, and, ultimately, to an improvement in electrical efficiency.

Okay so I KNOW I have to be a working mother and I know I have to have daycare. �But I am having a total panic attack thinking about the costs! �I keep looking up different places and it's going to set me back AT LEAST a grand a month. �Who has a grand a month lying around!? �Not me, that's for sure! �How did you moms who have done this before, do it? �Where do you cut costs? �I am freaking out about finding 1,000 bucks in my finances! :(
How do you afford daycare???
Michael - born 4/19/12 with Tetralogy of Fallot....full repair on 7/6/12...my little miracle <3 baby!
Charlie - born 5/26/15...my little lovebug!
Start saving now.
You also have to go through your budget to figure out if it's worth you going back to work. For some people it isn't.

Another handsome boy on the way due April 18, 2012
*Cole 2/8/10* *Jake 3/26/12*
When I have this baby I will have two in daycare. I really don't know how we are going to do it being we are tight already and only have my son in part time now. It is going to cost us 1500 for the two of them. I work with people who make similar money and have similar expenses and they just said they don't know how but they make it work. I asked one of my close friends at work and she said just pay whatever comes first lol. I think you have to just think more when you spend your money and be frugal where you can. I am already worried about a few weddings we will have to go to next year and give generous gifts. I guess life just is rough for a few years financially.
If you are poor enough you can get daycare assistance from the state. I know GA is not a popular topic but sometimes it's necessary. And like a PP said, many families have to evaluate whether the cost of daycare negates the benefit of the mother returning to work.
T, mom to T 12/01, ^E^ 8/03, S 6/04, M 10/05 & B due 4/17/12!
I put my daughter into preschool which is cheaper since its only a partial day, but obviously that doesn't work for infants. I would look at co-op preschools or find a SAHM who might watch the baby for you part or full time.
If its that much and your salary doesn't pay for it easily and then some, I would definitely evaluate to see if you can either stay-home or drop to part-time.
Wife to DH since 2004, mom to 3yo DD and baby boy here 3/30/12, 2 dogs, a cat, and program coordinator for a domestic violence treatment program!
DD 's daycare is not too bad to budget for but with LO it will be like working a full 2 week period to pay for it all. urgh!! I just might considering staying at home and working part time when DH is home so we can split the shifts with the kids. sigh. Lets just say our savings account just might go dry until they are both in school!!!

I'm lucky in that my mother only works part time for a retail store and therefore works her schedual so that she watches my child 3 days a week. I do pay her but not nearly what a day care would cost!! Perhaps about $500 a month. The last two days a week I work from home.

If your into Visual Studio Team system or thinking about it then check out this link to the free ALM Catalyst Live Workshops series.
These workshops consist of four two-hour interactive workshops that are repeated over a period of sixteen weeks (starting last week and running through the end of the FY), which gives customers the flexibility to fit it within their schedules.
Topics cover different roles (eg: Project Management, Testers) and facets (eg: quality, deployment).
Some are scheduled at times convenient for a NZ audience (PDT is one day behind and 4 hours ahead before NZ Daylight savings finish and then PDT is one day behind and 3 hours ahead ) - simpler than saying 21 and 20 hours behind I reckon.

text: I've seen some material recently on some of the changes that Fawcette is making to its VSLive conference line up, and I'm wondering if anyone will be convinced to attend based on the expanded scope. Many of the folks that I know that used to present at Fawcette conferences have now moved onto other venues, and idea of having six or seven conferences rolled into one doesn't seem that appealing to me. I know Fawcette has had a number of business issues, and while I'd like to see them stay afloat and continue to be part of the technology publishing community, I struggle to see how these changes to the conference line up are going to help. Who is the target audience for a conference that rolls the mobile development conference, speech technologies, .NET development (including a heavy VB focus) all into one event?

Denim Brands
3×1 Opens Southampton Flagship
3×1 is one of the leading denim labels out right now. With an original flagship at 15 Mercer in Soho, they offered a collaborative environment allowing customers to be able to create custom tailored and detailed jeans, as well as shop styles from their ready-to-wear collection.
The label has now expanded and opened up a new flagship in Southampton on 44A Main Street. Not only will the new store offer the assistance that they are known for, but also will be the core of collaborations and partnerships, such as upcoming ones with Brooklyn based Token, Goodlife, Prize Pins, and more. How many of you are excited to check out the new store? If you can't make it, you can click here to still check out their new styles on their website.
Giambattista Valli x 7 For All Mankind
7 For All Mankind have teamed up with Giambattista Valli to create 'A Collision of Contemporary and Couture'! You can see from the images below that this is an extremely wild, fun and daring collection, using such bold colours and prints, combining them with some tailored and classic fits. I am in love with the pink and red tones here! What do you think of it? You can read more about the collection from the press release just below!
The rarefied world of Haute Couture and the refined ease of premium denim are an unexpected combination. Unlikely matches, however, produce powerful results. 7 For All Mankind teams up with Giambattista Valli to create a decisively contemporary capsule collection that marries Valli's own attention to cut, proportion, construction and posture with 7 For All Mankind's quest for perfect shape, immaculate fit, luxurious fabric.
Giambattista Valli sums the essence of his style as: timeless, ageless, effortless. 7 For All Mankind shares the same values, with an emphasis on innovation. Adding luxury to the world of denim makes for a challenging creative dialogue.
"Denim fascinates me, as I am naturally drawn to exploring new grounds. In this respect, 7 For All Mankind is an excellence, so pairing with them came as a natural choice" says Giambattista Valli. "I used denim as a canvas onto which project my vision, thinking of a decidedly young, multicultural clientele of glamorous Valli girls. I worked on both shapes and fabrics, delivering jeans with a strong identity, quite unique for cut and treatment".
The collection merges Valli's signature with 7 For All Mankind's leadership in the contemporary segment, reinterpreting the high waist skinny and wide-leg flare styles through sharply feminine cuts, colors and prints.
"Giambattista Valli's unique and fresh point of view is unparalleled, especially when coupled with his foundation and start in the design world," says Barry Miguel, President of 7 For All Mankind. "His interpretation of denim is quite remarkable and I love the way he has merged his Haute couture world with our world of denim."
The collection is divided into two deliveries. The first one, out in mid-March, revolves around the intense glamour of red, one of Valli's definitive hues, and the graphic seduction of animal prints, culled from his Haute couture animalier motifs. True to the number so synonymous with the brand itself, the high-waist skinny will be offered in 7 different shades of matte-coated red denim – from pink to rouge noir, in texture cunningly akin to lipstick – and several animal prints. A mini-dress, sleeveless top, flared top, shorts and jacket are also offered in similar fabrications.
Denim in 7 different shades of blue, a handful of bright neon hues and sprinkles of sangallo lace make up for the second delivery, out in May, which also includes hi-wasted flares, a playsuit, a bomber and a peplum top.
The seamless marriage of atelier shape and denim creates an electrifying tension that conveys a vibrant idea of fresh, metropolitan elegance, which is highlighted by immaculate attention to detail. Denim is worked as a luxurious medium: fabric-dyed or fabric-bleached, it gives each piece a never-before-seen character, with gros grain trims used for closures and tags adding another luxurious treat.
Priced from $350 to $650 (from Ôé¼280 to Ôé¼530), the collection will be launched globally through 7 For All Mankind retail stores, Saks Fifth Avenue and multi-brand stores worldwide, and will also be available through the 7 For All Mankind web channel.

I've included the 8 pieces in the gallery below so you can check them out.They include the 501 jeans, 501 shorts, the Trucker and the Sawtooth Western Shirt.
Made in the USA is a nod back to the Levi's roots, with a modern take on classic styles. Only Levi's selvedge denim is produced on vintage looms with the signature red stitch signaling craftsmanship, quality and style. The branding and tone is straightforward, honest and simple. The look is modern and stylish, focusing on elevating Levi's current icons while paying homage to Levi's tradition.

Charming piece of history, lovingly preserved. This is a gem of time long past and a window into a prosperous time in the history of Liverpool.
I am from the town of Liverpool and have gone to the Perkin's House as a kid and an adult and it never ceases to amaze me. It is clean, well kept, and the staff are eager to answer your questions. For a tidbit of information on the life and times of S. Perkin's, it's a must see. I haven't...
A small but impactful museum with hologram ghosts throughout the house, and lots of information about how early Nova Scotians lived in Liverpool. A real treat.
The Interpreter really brought to life the life and times of the Perkins family. Although little in the Home was actual Perkins furniture the era was well represented. Take time to visit the Museum if you are in Liverpool, Nova Scotia. Also visit Queens Museum next door
The guide was dressed in period costume and gave good tour. Lots of stuff of the period in this home. Well set out with great information. Most enjoyable.
Liverpool was settled by New Englanders in the mid 1700's and the historic district still reflects this heritage. The owner of this old house kept a famous diary that makes for interesting reading.
We really enjoyed our stop at the Perkins House Museum. Only $4pp and it was a definite highlight. The tour guides are super informed and told us the function for numerous objects in this 1770s era home; it was like wandering through a Country Living magazine spread. There are "ghost" holograms that answer a series of pre-recorded questions. Admission gets...
A must stop in Queens County, so much to see and enjoy. My first visit was as a child and haven't stopped. If you want to learn about our history stop in.

Saturday's incident was the second time in three months
Ashvin Patel, the owner of the Sai Food Market on Prince
Albert Rd, had been robbed.
In the latest incident, a man entered the shop at 9.36am,
said nothing, and brandished a large knife at Mr Patel, who
jumped from his chair behind the counter and fell as he
scrambled to safety in a room behind the shopfront, from
where he called police.
The man, meanwhile, allegedly slipped behind the counter,
took several packets of tobacco, and ran from the store.
Mr Patel gave chase as the man ran south, turned left on to
Victoria Rd, and then left into in Queens Dr before Mr Patel
lost sight of him.
Police used a police dog in an extensive search of the area
but they found nothing.
Mr Patel said the incident had left him bruised and shaken.
Almost exactly the same thing had happened in August, he
He believed the same person might have been involved in both
The robbery was recorded on CCTV, which the shopkeeper
installed after the earlier incident.
The man, a slim Caucasian aged about 20, wore blue jeans, a
black or dark grey top or hoodie.
A bandanna, or similar, covered his face.
Detective Sergeant Brett Roberts said he hoped someone had
seen the man running off or taking off an item of clothing as
he ran.
The man dropped several packets of tobacco during his escape.

AP® English Literature and Composition
A Tale of One Test
It might have been a bummer to discover that the "critical" in "critical reading" did not mean you could yell things like, "Who's your daddy now, Dickens?" during a test, but cheer up, MacShmoopers.
Shmoop's guide to the AP English Literature exam will help you navigate the murky waters of literature...critically.
In this guide, you'll get review, drills, and practice exams while you learn...
- what the word "critical" actually means.
- how to decode—and beat—those pesky free response prompts.
- the fine art of memorizing the mysterious language of literary analysis.
Let's turn that Heart of Darkness into a heart of knowledge.
The Sections
Terms of Literary Analysis
When practicing literary analysis, try this four-step process to break it down like the Fresh Prince:
- Identify the literary devices
- Understand the function of each device in the passage
- Analyze how effective that device is in playing its role
- Determine the tone and themes created by the literary devices
Imagery and Figurative Language
Using imagery and figurative language is like putting a powerful, sweaty athlete in formal wear, but for writing. We don't mean that we turn our essays into fabulous paper dolls with various prom-themed outfits. What we mean is that without imagery and figurative language, the story is still there and the characters are still creepy or endearing or sad, but with them, the whole picture changes.
Everything is dressed up in its snazzy best, giving us stories and characters that make us wet ourselves with tears, laughter, or fear. As you may have noticed in class, imagery and figurative language play a huge role in literary analysis. Many questions on the exam will go into the functions and effects of these particularly great pieces of language, but before we need to be able to pick out these items on sight before we can identify functions and effects.
Knowing the figurative language devices from the list of literary terms is half the battle. This will help you answer simple questions like "Which of these devices is used in the passage?" If this were the only type of figurative language question, though, we'd skip around the room and do some back flips, Olympic gymnast-style.
As it turns out, you'll also see more in-depth questions asking us to identify nuanced details. These will typically involve aspects of figurative language like metaphor and personification, in which you'll need to identify both the literal and figurative elements of comparisons. Discussions of imagery will also appear here, since you'll need to know when something uses imagery as well as how to identify the type of image to boot.
Audience and Purpose
After looking at what is sure to seem a robust and inspiring list of literary devices and figurative language, we are left with the biggest question there is, after "Where does the TV remote go when I can't find it?" This question is, of course, "Why do we use any of this stuff?" Beautiful uses of language are absolutely meant to be just that: beautiful. As it turns out, these little beauties have brains—and a purpose—to boot.
The simple fact we face as analyzers of great literature is that the authors wouldn't have done it for no reason. These people aren't toddlers with finger paint and a leather couch (there's no reason for what's bound to happen there). They're illustrious writers! There is always a reason. Like we ourselves, each device and use of language has a greater, cosmic purpose...and it's more than just to beautify the surrounding words.
The exam will ask you in many cases to identify what particular bit of figurative delight you've encountered, but it will ask about its effect or function as well. In other instances, you could be asked about function on a larger scale. Sometimes this is about the organizational choices the author makes in general and the purpose of certain structures.
It would be foolhardy to think that anything doesn't have a purpose. On the other hand, it would also be foolhardy to think they have a porpoise.
Voice and Tone
Tone, like raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens, is one of the AP English Literature exam's favorite things. Some questions come and go on this test, but tone questions are not on that list. In fact, you'll probably encounter more tone questions than anything else.
The good news is that tone isn't typically devious or brain-numbing. It honestly just wants to know the feel of the passage: is it dark, is it comedic, is it romantic, and so on. Since we're asking about feelings, you and your feelings are your biggest asset. Isn't that great to hear?
Mood, voice, and attitude are all closely related to tone, and these are similarly big picture questions. We might be asked to identify the overall mood, voice, or attitude, or perhaps the location of a shift, or a particular attitude of the author or character toward another character, idea, or other development. In the end, we're all just feeling feelings about feelings.
Literary Comprehension
It's no secret that the passages that show up on this exam are, um…not "light" reading. There is no Oprah's Book Club selection here, though we wouldn't hate that, either. Classic literature is not known for its readability, which is why the exam will ask lots of comprehension questions. The classic comprehension test, as we know, is summarization. If we can read something and then restate the plot, or a characterization, or a theme in our own words, we have generally understood what we read.
Comprehension launches us into analysis, but understanding is a necessary foundation. Comprehension questions will ask you to identify summaries of certain parts of a passage, the implications of certain words, characterizations, comparisons, or just an important detail.
The goal of all of these is to ask, "Did you get it?" Well, did you?
Form and Structure
Poetry is always the sad panda of the AP English Literature exam. Almost nobody wants to see poetry come up, and even fewer people actually want to talk about pentameters or stanzas or whatever it is that enjambment means. Honestly, we feel bad for poetry, because it rocks. Poetry structures are like wonderful games of Jenga in which everything has its place, unless someone wanders by and knocks it all over. Don't be that guy.
In recent years, structural questions on the exam have been growing rarer and rarer. They are all almost exclusively about poetic formats, and while you may only encounter one or two of these, knowing the various forms of poetry will benefit you tremendously in racking up one or two more correct answers.
These questions may ask about meter or rhythm or simply ask you to identify the type of poem. You can hope for a haiku, but it's unlikely. Most poetic forms have at least a few characteristics that differentiate it from the other types, but you may find yourself using the process of elimination here more so here than on other questions.
In prose, a structure question may ask about plot. Plot is notoriously difficult to pin down on these types of exams, though, because we don't have the entire novel in front of us—just a tiny piece. Regardless, knowing basic plot elements can't hurt. Unless you hit yourself in the head with Freytag's Pyramid, but that probably won't be super likely.
Diction and Syntax
Thankfully for everyone, vocabulary and grammar questions on the AP English Literature exam will not focus on scientific jargon or obscure verb tenses or the nuances of semi vs. full colon. Usually, it will ask you to identify the meaning of certain words or various parts of speech in relation to another part. The most popular grammar option is to ask for referents or other connections, such as the subject of a verb phrase. We don't need to know about dangling prepositions or split infinitives or any other grammatical faux pas, though. Hallelujah!
Sneakily, these questions are another way of testing our comprehension of the passage, made necessary by the intensely complicated nature of some excerpts and authors who undeniably get a bit carried away.
What is the difference between the AP English Literature exam and the AP English Language exam?
The primary difference in these two exams is that, while both are conducted in English, the AP English Language exam focuses more on argumentation (like rhetorical strategies, not arguing with your best friend over where to eat lunch), while the AP English Literature exam focuses on literary analysis. If you prefer analyzing the theological implications in "For I will Consider My Cat Jeoffry" to the persuasive strategies in, say, this speech nobody's ever heard of, AP English Literature is for you.
Many students will take AP English Language in junior year and AP English Literature in senior year. That's another difference.
Do I need to be able to quote certain works?
It depends. Sorry.
If the text is given to you when writing an essay, you must cite proof from the selection (see: prose and poetry essays in the free response section). For the open-ended essay, you're free to do what you like. Obviously you can't memorize every work of literature throughout history word for word (or can you?), but having a few well-chosen lines handy, from things like Shakespeare or the Bible or classic I Love Lucy episodes (okay, maybe not the last one ) can give your essays the equivalent of literary jazz hands. Just make sure they're applicable.
Am I supposed to know every passage that comes up?
It is probable, nay—almost certain—that you will not know every single excerpt that appears in the multiple choice and free response sections. The realistic goal is that even if you don't know the passage from experience, you will know about something similar from that genre or period and be able to use what you know to craft a brilliant answer. It's all about careful extrapolation…and sometimes sheer luck.
Who are the graders?
We've heard rumors about a genetically modified wildebeest lodged at AP headquarters who does all the grading, but it turned out to be unfounded. A computer will actually grade your multiple-choice questions, and AP English Literature teachers (25%) and college English Composition instructors (75%) will grade all 1,103,886 essays from around the country.
367,962 students took the test in 2011 and, multiplied by three essays per person, this amounts to a lot of red—or not red—pens.
Is there a reading list?
There is no specific reading list or requirement. It is possible that your English class will have a reading list, but the exam itself does not have one. Cue your sigh of relief.
Important note: The AP exam will allow you to use any work of literary merit on the open-ended essay. However, be careful about the whole "literary merit" thing, especially when it comes to modern literature. The Kite Runner is considered a work of literary merit, but The Hunger Games is not. Lord of the Rings, yes. Harry Potter, not so much. We know that drawing this distinction may inspire several of you to mount impassioned and cogent arguments in defense of your favorite books, but the AP free response section is not the place to do it.
Can I use highlighters on the test?
Sadly, no. Using highlighters to annotate while you read is an excellent comprehension strategy, but this test is the story of a student alone with his/her (dark) blue or black pen. On the multiple-choice section, your only friend is your #2 pencil. Also, is there a #3 pencil? A #1 pencil?
What are the odds of passing?
Unlike Vegas where the odds are stacked against you and the house always wins, the AP English Literature exam is about preparation and strength of will…and the ability to work through a hand cramp. In 2011, almost 60 percent of the 367,962 students who took the test scored a 3 or better.
When do I get my scores?
Slow down, speed racer, you haven't even taken the test yet. These people have more than one million essays to grade, so scores won't be available until the summer. Starting from 2013, the College Board will no longer mail you your score. Go here to set up an account; as soon as scores are available, usually in July, you will be able to access them.
Will I be penalized for wrong answers on the multiple-choice section?
You absolutely will not be penalized for wrong answers. If you have no clue whatsoever what the answer might be, guess. If minute 57 of 60 rolls around and you still have 10 questions left—guess! Bubble like you've never bubbled before and you may squeeze a few more correct answers out of the deal.
What if I have bad handwriting?
This is a fine line. Technically, the AP Board is admonished that under no circumstance should a student's work be penalized for messiness. However, if your handwriting is so bad that it reaches the point of illegibility and the reader can't read it at all, you have a larger issue.
Write quickly, but remember that you're writing it for someone else to read—and not your mom who knew what you were saying even when you were in the two-year-old babbling phase and running around with your diaper on your head.
My school does block scheduling. Can I still take the AP English Literature test?
Yes. The AP exams are only given in May, though, so you will have a distinct disadvantage if you only take a one-semester block of AP English in the fall. Practice with Shmoop's drills and exams so you can go into your test with literary skills blazing like Luke Skywalker's lightsaber, rather than dull from winter holiday and whatever it is that you do over spring break.
Will I get my test booklet back?
Your test booklet will not automatically be sent back to you. However, for the low, low price of only $7, you can request it from the AP Board if you want to perhaps frame it to hang above your bed. If it doesn't turn out so well, you may also want to throw it maniacally into the fireplace or make it into bedding for your gerbil, Steven.

After graduating from the Duke University School of Medicine in 2004, Dr. Ana Benitez-Graham stayed inside the Triangle, completing her dermatology residency at the University of North Carolina. She is now a member of the North Carolina Medical Society and the American Society for Dermatological Surgery and a fellow with the American Academy of Dermatology. Dr. Benitez-Graham leads the staff at Central Carolina Skin & Dermatology on missions to streamline skin surfaces with laser services and conventional dermatology. Depending on symptoms and triggers, they can customize treatment plans to eradicate maladies such as eczema, acne, and psoriasis and to treat certain forms of skin cancer. Dr. Benitez-Graham also performs cosmetic procedures ranging from facial peels and spider-vein treatments to microdermabrasion, cosmetic injectables, and laser hair removal. The center stocks only professional products from brands such as Jane Iredale, Clarisonic, and SkinCeuticals, which are more effective than covering up skin problems with sale-price costume masks.
