No. The characters of Jack, Rose, her mother Ruth, her fiancee Cal, his bodyguard Spicer, Fabrizio, and the treasure hunters are all fictional creations of James Cameron. They are not based on any real people but rather are dramatic representations of the rich and poor people on the Titanic. I imagine it was returned to the prop department's warehouse! Again, the diamond was a fictional creation used to give Brock Lovett and the other treasure hunters a reason to hear Rose's story.

Without a doubt the most highly-publicized Ripper book to come out in recent years has been Patricia Cornwell's Portrait of a Killer: Jack the Ripper ? Case Closed. Cornwell claims to have found DNA evidence linking Walter Sickert to a small number of Ripper letters. Her book rapidly climbed the best-seller lists and was the subject of numerous radio and television programmes around the world. See similar questions...

Yes, even if G.L.Bonelli did not really borrow much from the real person. He actually borrowed from the Kit Carson of Rino Albertarelli's comic strip from the '30's. See similar questions...

Jack did not make "Shelter". Jack and Ben Harper make brief long-boarding appearances from when they were playing the Byron Bay Blues Festival in Australia in March 2001. The 'Shelter' Crew was near the Byron Bay filming the movie, and since Jack and Ben were close by, they stopped by one day and caught some waves. Jack's manager Emmett Malloy, along with Taylor Steele, made the surf film "Shelter" in 2001. For more info go to http://www.shelter2001.com See similar questions...

Since he was never caught, we can never know for sure how many women fell victim to the Ripper. The generally accepted number is five, though it could be as few as three and as many as seven. The "canonical" five victims are Mary Ann Nichols, Annie Chapman, Elizabeth Stride, Catherine Eddowes and Mary Jane Kelly. Certain theorists have discarded Stride and Kelly from this list, while others have added to it, contending that Martha Tabram and Alice Mackenzie were likely Ripper victims as well.

The Ripper seemed to follow a fairly regimented modus operandi when dispatching his victims. In many cases there seems to be evidence of strangulation, followed by the severance of the carotid artery, which caused near-immediate death. Then he performed various abdominal/genital/facial mutilations, to varying degrees. On some victims there were only a few cuts and stab wounds, while others were mutilated beyond recognition.

The idea that the Ripper may have had some level of medical knowledge is derived from the fact that, in some cases, certain organs were removed from the bodies of his victims. Some doctors believed they detected medical precision in his cuts ? others claimed he had no training whatsoever, not even that of a butcher. There is no standard answer to this question, unfortunately. See similar questions...

During the Victorian era, each flower had a meaning. A white rose symbolized purity and innocence. Perhaps Victoria was trying to send a message to her listeners that her motives and teachings were pure. After Victoria Woodhull ran for President, the American suffrage movement chose the colors purple, white, and gold to represent their cause. A yellow rose became one of the symbols for those in favor of women's suffrage. The red rose symbolized the anti-suffrage movement. See similar questions...

When the Sister Fidelma stories first began to appear some reviewers expressed their surprise, if not disbelief, that any woman in Fidelma's time could have such rights and exercises uch authority. They could not bring themselves to accept that 7th Century Irish women could have such roles nor exercise priestly functions and even be ordained bishops in the Celtic Church.

No, it did not. The real character used as inspiration by Bram Stoker was the Prince Vlad, surnamed the Impaler, who ruled in Wallachia (1456-1462, 1476). The prince fought bitterly againt the Ottoman Empire; he remained in the Turkish chronicles as a very cruel ennemy, thus the bloodthirsty image used by Bram Stoker in writing his book.

You'd be surprised how often I get this question. The P*lace didn't really exist. We also don't know what city/state Kids Incorporated took place in, but we do know the street name they are on is called 'South Street' which is confirmed in Season 4 in the episode 'Front Page News'.

There are a variety of observations on this topic. Jack did study violin and perform in vaudeville for a time as a pure violinist. However, he enjoyed performing more than practicing, so never became the Mischa Elman (a Jewish violin virtuoso in the early part of the century) that his parents had wanted. Jack said that if he tried to play badly, it wouldn't be funny. He claimed that he would try to play as well as possible, but create comedy in his missing the mark. See similar questions...

On January 29, 2000, Jack played with bassist Gio Loria and drummer Morgan Alstot at "The Mint" in Los Angeles, CA. This was around when "Rodeo Clowns" became a hit. These two musicians were hooked up with Jack for this show, and possibly other shows around this time. This was before Jack was hooked up with Adam and Merlo in the summer of 2000.

Enjoy Records was having a hard time distributing the album. Jack would play a show in a town, and the people at the show would go to their local record store, but there was no "Brushfire Fairytales". In order to solve this problem, Jack and Enjoy hooked up with Universal Music Group to distribute the album. Because of this, the album was "re-released" on January 29, 2002. The album is exactly the same packaging, music, etc. except that on the back, right above the bar code, the www. See similar questions...

One of the interesting phenomena of this case is the copious correspondence received by the press, police and even private citizens, from authors claiming to be "Jack the Ripper." The name "Jack the Ripper" itself was derived from the signature on a letter sent to the Central News Agency, in which the author threatened to "clip the ladys ears off" during his next murder.

This website exists because of Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD). They didn't call it ADD back then, but I was never able to pay attention in school. On the other hand flashcards worked well for me, so I used them extensively. When I encountered my first computer around 1970, I quickly realized it was the answer. By combining active learning (question drill) and adaptive learning (intelligent repetition), a computer could be much more effective than all those little pieces of paper. See similar questions...

It would depend upon your definition of the term 'vampyre'. If you are referring to people who drink blood as a source of pleasure and/or nourishment... then certainly!... vampyres exist! There are many organizations dedicated to the practice and teaching of blood drinking. You may reach them by contacting some of the groups listed in question [3.03]. However, if by 'vampyre' you are referring to the supernatural beings who have risen from their graves to feed upon the living.. See similar questions...

I am writing in reply to your e-mail of 24 May 2007, from which it can be concluded that you consider the Swedish authorities to be undemocratic. You appear to have referred the matter to the European Court of Human Rights and to the International Court of Justice. You have written to the European Ombudsman, whose task is to investigate complaints about maladministration by EU institutions and bodies. See similar questions...

There are many films, photos, reports and evidence that extra-terrestrial ships do exist and have visited Earth at least since the time that mankind appeared. In the time of the cavemen there are cave paintings. The Bible also has many passages referring to strange entities and objects. And, in the middle-age, there are several paintings referring to alien space craft. See similar questions...
