Shooting Black and White Stills
I am wondering if it is possible to achieve good results shooting black and white indoors with normal house lamps and what type of backgrounds might work best for this. I have experimented some in the past but have not had consistent results. Can anyone give me any tips?

Sure, it's very possible, Pete. B&W is not dependent on color temperature like color photography is. In as far, as backgrounds, simple is better. Professionals tend you use average tonality backgrounds, for example 18% gray (same as a gray card) makes excellent backgrounds.
