"Upside

this is action type so have fun I stood on the edge of the bridge.I thought about my mom.Images of her face crashing into the car window,the car sliding upside down,me in the back seat seeing my mother die before my very eyes and the side of the car hitting my face.I was in the hospital for a month after that.My father left my mother when I was four,so I had no family left.I live in an apartment now.My name is Ashley Weeks,I am eighteen.I have long,wavey blond hair,and now,a scar under my eye.Thank you,car.Anger flooded through me.Why does life have to be so bad sometimes? This bridge has been abandoned for years so no car comes by.I was so sad,angry and confused.I wanted to jump right off this bridge and fall to my death.But I didn’t.My green eyes started flooding with tears.I heard crashes,people running,and laughing.I turned around behind me,scared.Two black people were running to me.There was a bank by the bridge and an alarm was going off.Uh oh.They didn’t-"Stand up!" Said the first one.I stood up and put my hands on my head.What the?I was so scared.I was going to die..Thank god.They were cops."Did you see anyone come out that bank,miss?" Said the first one.I shook my head."Thank you." They walked off.That was strange. I sat back down,my legs hanging off the bridge.I stared at the moon.I wanted to cry.Then I heard rustling in the bushes.I quickly got up and walked in the bushes.It felt like someone was watching me.I ran to my apartment and locked the door.Then I sat down on the couch. I turned the t.v. on and flicked through the channels and looked at the window.Something brown quickly flicked away."Holy sh.." I said.Someone knocked on the door.I walked up.I opened the door and the two cops grabbed my arms."Your coming with us."

Open Question: Anyone mind reading a little part of my movie about Captain America? The plot is slightly different?
"Don’t worry help is here." Steve said to comfort the soldiers. "Once again Cap you’re here to save the." Buckey stopped talking , for he saw someone come out of the shadows holding a pistol towards him. BANG!!!
BANG!!!
BANG!!! Steve looked over to Buckey. Buckey slowly walked back as if he was struggling, he stumbled to his knees. Buckey looked at Steve , blood gushed out of his mouth. "Cap." Buckey whispered to Steve knowing that he was shot. BANG!!!
BANG!!!
BANG!!! Steve felt as if he was shot through the chest, because of the unbareable sadness that suddenly hit him. Steve knew that Buckey was getting shot and he may not survive this. Streams of tears began running down Steve’s cheeks," Buckey!" Steve yelled with sadness. A man in the dark corner was holding a pistol out, smoke ran out of the pistol as if it was just fired; the man holding it walked out of the shadow. "You should have never destroyed that machine Steve, no , no , no." The man said. Steve recognized the voice and slowly turned his head to the man. He knew who it was, it was his arch nemesis; The Red Skull! "You bastard!" Steve yelled at him. "No need for name calling, you destroyed my baby and i destroy yours." The man said. Steve ran to Buckey. Buckey collapsed in to Steve’s arms;Buckey is now presumed dead. Steve looked down at Buckey as he laid in his arms and couldn’t stand , but watch his sidekick die; it killed him. A sudden anger hit Steve, Steve ran to the Red Skull with his arm in the air getting ready to swing a blow at him. The Red Skull ducked dodging the blow and punched Steve in the ribs. Steve gasped with pain, and took a few steps back holding his chest. The Red Skull laughed yelling," Oh come on Steve, you can do so much better we both know that!" "Red Skull you should have never said that." Steve Rogers said. Steve ran to Red Skull. Red Skull tried to kick Steve, but Steve grabbed his foot and tossed him through the doors leading to the roof. Red Skull flew outside, once he landed on the roof ;he laid on the ground laughing and whiped the blood off his lip and struggled to stand up, but after a few tries was able to. The doors leading to the roof suddenly bursted open, Steve slowly walked out. "You’ll regret doing what you did Red Skull, i will get you if its the last thing i do!" Steve yelled. "Don’t make me laugh, please stop it!" Red Skull said trying to taunt Steve. Red Skull ran to Steve and Steve ran to Red Skull. They were going to meet, both were ready to fight. The sky was still gloomy and it was still heavily raining, even lightning and thunder came down to join the show. American and German planes flew above them while they faught, the planes would accidnetally shoot down on the roof the two were fighting on while trying to get another plane. This just made the battle between good(Steve Rogers) and bad(Red Skull) even more hard for the both of them. They both faught intensively, grunting at each other each time one would get hurt. Red Skull was able to get on top of Steve and land some punches on him, but Steve kicked Red Skull off him. Red Skull flew back almost to the edge of the roof. "Its a 60 foot building Red Skull!" Steve yelled. "And what do you plan on doing Steve, try and find some way to throw me off this building?" Red Skull yelled back. "Something like that." Steve said. Steve ran and jumped off a pillar in front of him , Red Skull watched as Steve came down at him with a fist over his right side. Red Skull snuck out a grenade from his pocket and clutched on to it behind his back. "See you Steve, i have a flight to catch!" Red Skull jumped back landing right in to a German Helicopter, as soon as he landed in the helicopter ; he threw the grenade right next to Steve who was still on the roof. Red Skull then saluted Steve saying good bye. Steve was in a desperate need for help, he looked around trying to find anything he could use. Steve saw the sharded shield that he previously used and picked it up. Steve grabbed the bomb and threw it towards the helictopter that had taken off in to the sky. Red Skull laughed as he saw the pathetic attempt he thought Steve did at throwing the bomb to him. Steve grabbed the sharded shield and chucked it out in to the sky as hard as he can. The shield swirled heading right towards the helicopter, the shard was able to catch the grenade and make its way stabbing right outside the helictoper’s steel skin. Red Skull looked out and saw the shard with the grenade placed right on top of it. "NO, turn this thing upside down or something!" Red Skull yelled trying to find some poor way to get out of this deadly situation. Red Skull quickly ran to the parachutes and put one on. He jumped out of the helictoper just in time to save himself, but the explosion was able to reach his face that was covered by a rubber Red Skull mask. His head caught on fire , Red Skull began to

Voting Question: child abuse question please help?
This is a question about child abuse and what i should do. I have been afraid of my dad since i was about 3 years old. We got along sometimes, but not often.My mom and i are best friends though. My dads anger really started pouring out when we started getting into frequent arguements. When i was 3, i clearly remember him setting a timer for 2 whole minutes, and putting me on his lap, spanking me as hard as he can. That punishment soon ended when i kicked him in the eye. I dont remember much from 5 and 6 years old, but when i turned around 7, there was a new thing he did. He would chase me around the house until he caught me, and drag me by my arm into some room, throw me on the bed and start spanking. This continued till i was about 11. Then, the first thing that he threw at me was a full bottle of shampoo. I ducked so i would not get hit. But when i turned around, he had thrown the shampoo bottle so hard that it put a hole right through my closet door. Then sometimes he would chase me around the house and when he would catch me, he would slamm me up against the wall with his hand wrapped around my neck. If i would try to get out, he would push harder. (this happend the most).The last incedent was the worst. it happend only two months ago that my dad and i were in a really bad arguement. He got up as if he was going to do something, so i said "dont come any closer". he took a step closer and i raised my foot and tried to kick him in the you know what. I missed. as i was kicking, he grabbed my foot, which caused me to fall and land on my back. still holding my foot, he drug me and picked me up. I was dangling upside down by my foot. I felt myself being slammed into the wall. My mom was screaming in the background to put me down. He dropped me. I went to the doctor and they said i broke my shoulder. I did something stupid though. I lied. I told everyone and the doctor, and even my own grandparents that i got hit with a softball. The only reason why i dont want to tell anyone is that i love my mom so much and my dog. i love my dog more than my dad. If i get sent to a foster home, ill never see them again, and it breaks my heart to think that. Now, whenever my dad and i get into an arguement, i say "dont touch me" and he doesnt anymore. I really dont know what to do. For some reason, i still love him. I get sad when i see him drink 2 beers everynight, because i think of what it is doing to him.
what do i do? i have no clue.

Voting Question: Dealing with sudden, completely consuming anger?
Okay, i know there is absolutely no excuse for allowing myself to get as irrationally angry but i did. Normally I am happy, calm and collected but my mother just knows how to push my buttons(even if she doesn’t mean to)…especially at a time of high stress and low tolerance of anything that goes wrong. It was exam time, the hardest of my life so far, and everything was going wrong. My essays, notes etc were on a computer that crashed with no chance of being fixed right before i urgently needed them; and there was no backup because i stupidly believed that my computer was new and would never crash like that. Anyway needless to say that computer i had had everything i had ever written, plus personal information etc, so you can imagine my being upset. crying trying to fix it i called my dad and blamed him for my broken computer (I was working on something for him the time it crashed so my irrational mind thought it was his fault, which i apologized for profusely). Then i hang up on him because he starts getting angry which is not helping my temper, so he calls my mother. now my mother I’m sure meant well but after telling(well sobbing) my dilemma of it being a problem with the model of the computer itself and that no store would be able to fix it, she got angry and started hitting me upside the head ( i can only guess that she was angry that i was being difficult), which made me super angry and made me scream at her to get out. Usually when I’m angry i go run or Rollerblade; i get away to blow off some steam, but at this point i couldn’t walk away from my computer so i needed her to leave. Unfortunately i didn’t have a lock and her consistent coming in to check on my progress/mental breakdown of stress plus added computer troubles and now family members getting angry at me; her nagging did not help at all. she wasn’t there to comfort or console or talk. only to yell at me for something i was too enraged to listen to. so finally i went to Rollerblade, just to chill out because i had a feeling that i was going to say or do something i would regret. I put on my Rollerblade and sped down the road, and i realize that my mother was cleaning the area i kept them in just before the whole computer thing. when she gets angry she throws things, when she see’s my blades on the basement stairs she chucks them into a corner…apparently she broke them and i was too angry when putting them on to notice so my expensive, self-bought skates broke while I’m going way too fast and i fall badly hurting my leg..now i can’t vent or run or anything. I hobbled back home and find that she left the house. i go into my room and seeing my broken computer, the fact that i just wasted time from studying, and had to ice down an injury when i should have been studying i just became extremely frustrated again and started throwing things against the wall. this whole tantrum ended with my fist going through drywall. which brings me back to the entire issue. how can i control these tantrums when i can’t walk away or vent in solitude; when i can’t remove my self from the situation. I can’t even count the number of times i apologized to everyone, and how mortified i am at the way i behaved, so how can a get control of this. this is so out of character from my usual calm self that i am extremely worried I’ll act like this again next year when I’m away at college. i can’t believe a threw a tantrum at my age (16 btw) and i don’t ever want to do that again. I have a hole in my wall and my family constantly makes fun of it, making me feel even more horrible. Any thoughts, or suggestions? and please don’t say it’s because I’m young, there was absolutely no excuse for the way i behaved and i am not proud at all. Also i blamed a lot of people and blew up at them when they didn’t deserve it, is there anything else i can do besides sincerely apologize. they don’t seem to want to hear my story, which i completely understand but i just kinda want to put this behind me.

Resolved Question: How original do you think this sounds?
Writing wise and story wise? To say I felt safe in his presence would be a lie. I didn’t feel safe: I felt terrified. My nerves would become a mess, jumping at his slightest movement, and my heartbeats would be like the stammers of a shy girl speaking in front of a big crowd. The attraction that held me to him ebbed and flowed; varied between loving him and hating him. Varied between wanting him so badly, in all the wrong ways, and wanting him gone, in all the right ways. I know I should have distanced myself from him, completely cut myself off. I didn’t. It was the worst decision I’d ever made. * вЂњKenna?вЂќ he asks. I avert my eyes, refusing to look at him. вЂњOh come on, don’t be this way.вЂќ My nerves fizz like a candle going out. вЂњLeave me alone, Zale.вЂќ The candle flames, strong and bright. вЂњKenna, I know you love me. And I love you too.вЂќ His voice is an ocean wave, so strong. It has the power to make the flames go out, whether I want them to or not. It has the power to make a lie sound real. Not knowing what to say or do, I scratch my palms until he grabs my hands. вЂњDon’t do that,вЂќ he says, looking at the red marks forming on my skin. I ignore him and start replaying my favorite movie in my head. I can’t quite remember the beginning, so I frown while trying to remember. He thinks I’m choosing my words or making a choice. I finally remember and have only replayed five minutes when he shakes me. вЂњKenna, you can’t just do this when you don’t want to face me.вЂќ
I don’t say anything. He’ll give up. Or resort to other methods, like now. His hands stroke the skin on my wrists, where my veins are. It tickles and I close my eyes. вЂњKenna.вЂќ I jump. вЂњNo need to be so loud.вЂќ I compare myself to fire, and him to water. Fire does not symbolize anger to me; it is peaceful and quiet. Water, however… Water can be so brutal. Tall ocean waves crashing down on beaches, houses. And I? I am but a flame in the ocean that is Zale. вЂњKennaвЂ”вЂќ вЂњStop… saying my name, Zale. Now let me go, I need to get home.вЂќ вЂњOh really, that’s not what you were saying an hour ago. You were saying you had all the time in the world for me, for us. What was that about, Kenna?" I hate the way he’s saying my name. And he’s using it down, wearing it down. Wearing me down. How much longer can this last? How much longer can I hang on to this relationship? One I’m not even sure is worth it? "Things change." I walk away. My words must have surprised him, because he does not follow me like he usually would. When I get home, Mom is worried. I groan. Do I have to face her too? "Kenna, what happened? I thought you’d be out until ten, it’s only nine." "Things changed." I walk upstairs, to my room. I shove a pile of dirty clothes off my bed only to find a pile of school books. I push the pile aside and finally sit down. I fall back and my heads hangs over the other side of the bed. I can see the world upside down and my hair is probably touching the floor, picking up dust. I sigh.
"The attraction that held me to him ebbed and flowed; varied between loving him and hating him. Varied between wanting him so badly, in all the wrong ways, and wanting him gone, in all the right ways." I’ll change it to: "The attraction that held me to him ebbed and flowed; shifted between loving him and hating him. Varied between wanting him so badly, in all the wrong ways, and wanting him gone, in all the right ways." "I didn’t. It was the worst decision I’d ever made." I’ll change it to: "I didn’t…and it was the worst decision I’d ever made."

Resolved Question: I was attacked during the MAY DAY march?
I am in support iof immigrant rghts and freedom as I am an immigrant as well but when it comes to illegal immigration I am angered. My friends and I decided to join the protest LA, Cali by holding signs that read: Stop illegal immigration. We also had shirts saying,"No amnesty. Deport illegal criminals. The crowd was mostly Hispanic/Mexican and never in my life have I seen so many Mexican flags and upside down American flags in one place. People at the march looked at us with hostility and hatred and a few people, at least 10 or so, attacked my friends and I. They called us "racists’" and many other insults in spanish. I don’t know why these people were upset about me being against ILLEGAL immigration. Illegal immigration is on the rise in Cali and yes, it is mostly Mexicans pouring in to our own backyards and yes, most of illegals are from Mexico but I wasn’t blaming any race of people. I am against illegal immigration because it is a concern of mine and it is hurting this country in terms of drug cartels, rape, murders, gangs, graffitti, ect. To end this rant and question of mine, I was seeing why this MAY DAY protest is more about protecting Mexico and Mexican illegals than rights and equality for all. I am no longer in support of MAY DAY as like I stated before….Never in my life have I seen upside down American flags, chants of "This is Mexico", ect. I wish people would stop being racist and putting race before rules of this country and how great it is because of the enforcement of tolerable laws here in the states. Ugh, America is definitely changing and looking different in Southern, California. Seems Mexicans support illegal immigrants from Mexico and hate diversity which is the reason why America is so amazing! Now seeing all these facts and stuff I am worried about Mexicans/Hispanic becoming the majority race of people in 20 years…..Looks like I might go back home to Germany and live with relatives…Arg. America is becoming more and more unappealing to both my family and myself. Illegal immigration is pretty much changing my opinion on the U.SA…

Resolved Question: what do u think? any opinions?
I sat alone, silent and deadly still. My hands clenched tightly, and my eyes not daring to move of the ground. PeopleвЂ™s screams filled my head and drowned everything else out. Their screams were screams of pain and of fear. Each one I knew, each one I remembered, and each one I tried to ignore. I couldnвЂ™t handle it; there was so much pain and anger all the time. I couldnвЂ™t be this person; I wasnвЂ™t this person, not now and not ever! I was determined to get away from here, as far away as possible. I had to for my own sake! My mother and father whom I had never known had fled the colony many years ago. I had been taken in by Lacida. She was my motherвЂ™s best friend, before everything happened, before my life was turned upside down, smashed to pieces, put in a blender, and then finally watered down until all that remained was the slight tangy-ness of death and despair. Screams of horror echoed thought my ears, everything in my heart told me that this was wrong, but everything in my head told me that this was how things were and there was nothing I could do about it. Lacida once told me that I was a fighter, and no matter what I was told I was always to trust my heart. I never really understood what she meant before, but standing here, drenched in the blood of the one person who took me in and cared for me, shaking with anger and grief I finally understood what she meant all those years ago. My hands shook as I reached out to touch hers. They were so cold, like stone, smoothed to a perfect finish by the constant wavering of the ocean. Tears streaked from my face like a waterfall. They were tears of sadness and regret, but mostly they were tears of anger and the burning rage inside of me to revenge her death. Her once young beautiful eyes now resembled the old woman she was. They were so tired looking, but there was something different about them now. She looked almost peaceful. вЂњBring her back to me.вЂќ I whispered as I sat there, clenching her hand close to my heart, praying that something, someone would bring her back to me. I couldnвЂ™t live without her, I needed her. The wind roared as I let go of her hand. I watched it fall to the floor and lay there motionless. I half expected her to jump up and say surprise, but every second that I remained there, trying to convince myself that she was alive, was another second that I had already proved to myself that she was gone for good. The rain seemed to last forever, icy drops of pain and sadness seemed to dig into my bare skin like hundreds and thousands of tiny needles. The ones that are so delicate if you try to pull them out they break and lodge into your skin forever. Nothing made sense anymore. Everything that I once believed in was now proven to be a lie. I felt sick to my stomach every time I thought of her, lying there on the floor like that. Cold, alone, frightened, and thinking that I hated her. I felt a hand touch my shoulder. I jumped and was knocked back into reality. My eye took a few moments to adjust to the light. Shapes began to appear out of the light getting clearer and defined, until I could make out faces and features that I recognized. I sat up straight and looked around. There was something wrong, something was missing. I could sense it in the air, I could taste it on my tongue and I could feel it pulsating through my veins. A tall dark figure began to draw closer; I stared as they floated so silently and gracefully along the floor. I was mesmerized by the way that this person, whatever it may be walked, it was unreal, like watching a movie. The person came to an abrupt stop and I jolted my head back. My eyes met with something strange. It was not a face, but a long black shimmering veil draped over its head. I watched as it stood there. It had no obvious eyes, but I could feel it watching me, I could feel its glare studying me like Lacida did when she suspected something bad of me. I felt my throat begin to tie itself into a knot. Lucida, was she really gone? Was it just a dream? What really happened? My mind seemed to flicker between the here, the now and the past. I couldnвЂ™t seem to concentrate on either. It was like switching a light on and off. You canвЂ™t have it both ways. I tried to block the images of her lying there on the drowned floor, her eyes wide staring up at me. So instead I turned my mind onto the here and now. The person stood perfectly still, if I had not seen it move I would have mistaken it for a figure carved out of oak pale stone. There was no one else around, well no one else that I could see. I knew well not to only trust my eyes, they only saw what was on the outside, there was so much more on the inside. I stared deep into the figure; I studied its shape and its essence. It seemed only to stand there watching me. I no longer cared whether I lived or died, I had nothing to live for, I was alone in the world and there was nothing that I could do about it. Everyone that I had ever loved had be

Resolved Question: Scared of husband’s anger?
When my husband gets angry, he kind of goes off into his own world. It seems as though he isn’t even talking to me, but to himself. He slurs words and gets a crazy wild look in his eyes. I told him I believed he haad another woman, and he denied it but then told me that he wished he did so he could be with her instead of bothering with me. He would be in her arms getting all the love he should get from his wife. He told me that when I return from work the next day, the locks would be changed and my belongings would be outside. I was in bed crying and he told me to keep crying, he didn’t care. Then I went into the bathroom and cried, and he busted in the door and tried to break my ipod (i was listening to it and reading my Bible). He said he bought the ipod and he wanted me to listen to him. He tunes me out whenever he wants, and I didn’t want to hear his angry rants. I turned it off though, then he went on about how he would like to strike me, it would feel great, he wants to bust me upside my f***ing head, I never listen to him, he doesn’t want to talk about every detail of our marriage like I do, etc. I sat and just cried. Then I started to pack up. I worried that he might try to hurt me while I was sleeping. Then he made a huge mess and told me I had better clean it (the mess he made). Just to pacify him, and bec I was scared, I said ok, I would clean it, then I packed up and left. Now I am at my mother’s, it is sooooo hot, and I brought our dog. I want to go back home, at least til I get my own apartment, but I don’t know if that is the right thing to do. He is a very angry man who has two totally different sides. Why does he do this? Why??? I’m a really good wife, I do fuss at him but I’m very good to him. We got into the argument because I told him I wanted to talk abt some isssues in our marriage and he refused. We have a few trips planned for the next few months. What do I do about those? Do i go back or do I try to move on? Divorce is an option,but not my first one. What do I do now? We haven’t even celebrated a year’s anniversary.

Resolved Question: How would it be like if humans were insensitive to both positive and negative emotions?
Emotion has both it’s up and down sides. The upside are feelings of love, compassion and concern. The downside are feelings of hatred, anger and jealousy. My question is how would it be like if humans beings had neither both good and bad emotions or were in short, neutral?
Yeah, no love and no hate for sure. Also I imagine that everyone would also carry this "whatever I don’t care" mentality.

"Shopgirl"/

I understand that guys are visual and all that ….. I hear that women "mature faster," but in my personal experience, the older guys who exclusively prefer younger women seem to have less personal maturity, want to dominate their partner, and are stuck in some kind of ego-fueled adolescence state. Not saying this is ALWAYS true, but I am just thinking of personal examples. And the movie "Shopgirl," for instance, which came straight from Steve Martin’s brain… So can women attract and keep a guy in their own age bracket through the years?

I think i hurt someones feelings should i leave it or apologise?
i teach classes for adults. we were on our break the other day and i happened to be in the kitchen with them. they were talking about a shop assistant who insulted one of them. I said without thinking " you should say to her theres no need to be so high and mighty your only a shopgirl" I saw this in sex and the city once. anyway one of the girls who works in a shop got up and stomped out of the kitchen. it was a stupid thing to say as i dont think any job is lower than another. I worked as a cleaner and a bar maid before i went back to uni as a mature student. should i say something to this girl or just let it go?

Question about Shopgirl by Steve Martin?
My local library has it listed as Clerks (Retail trade) вЂ” Fiction
Medication abuse вЂ” Fiction
Young women I don’t understand why they would categorize it as medication abuse. Mirabelle took medication but I don’t remember her misusing her meds. Any idea why they would list it like that?

Estimated Gas Readings – a bit steep UK?
Hey – if I go into a shop to buy something the shopgirl isnt going to give me an estimated price is she? LOL
why are they (the Gas companies) allowed to get away with this?
I just gave them a reading and they better sort it or I will refuse to pay.
Fiona – good idea LOL
(Agent Smith returns – nice try but not good enough)
Fiona is a Troll btw

HELP Please!!…Hair Questions…(Pictures) >10 POINTS!!
Okay, so my hair is long (about down to my elbows) and straight. My friend has curly hair and I really love it!! And so I really want a perm…here’s a picture of the exact kind I want… http://images.chron.com/blogs/shopgirl/archives/shopgirl-perm.jpg Here are my questions: 1. What kind of perm is that 2. If you shower or brush your hair too much, will your perm go away? 3. Does your hair fall out if you get a perm? 4. Will this kind of perm make my hair frizzy? P.S. You don’t have to answer all the questions, but any help will be greatly appreciated!!

can someone give me a summary of the movie ’shopgirl’?
i only caught bits and pieces of it and i dont feel like searching for it online so can someone give me a summary of the movie? include the ending please. don’t just copy and paste the synopsis from imbd or somewhere. thanks so much :]

This movie…Shopgirl? Whats the deal? (Steve Martin and Clare Danes?)?
Okay so I was channel surfing and stopped when I got to "Shopgirl". I guess it’s already been on awhile. Its weird. What did I miss?

If beauty is what you like, what would happen if…?
Imagine to wake up, and discover a strange condition affecting only the most glamorous and beautiful women and girls, and only them. Just everyone, from cheerleaders to top actresses, from showgirls to suicide girls, from supermodels to that leggy shopgirl that makes everyone head turn, find herself unable to speak, but merely able to bark, grunt and moan, unable forever to utter a single clear word, no more able even to write, but to pantomime everything. As for the "ugly" ones, the girls and women no one likes "in that way" they got themselves gifted with a better voice, albeit still unattractive. What would happen next?

Shopgirl movie?
OMG was it just me that thought it was the most boring thing ever??who else watched it, and please tell me why you liked it if you did

Plot Summary:In a quiet, isolated village in olde Pennsylvania, there lies a pact between the people of the village and the creatures who reside in the surrounding woods: the townspeople do not enter the woods, and the creatures do not enter the village. The pact stays true for many years, but when Lucius Hunt seeks medical supplies from the towns beyond the wood, the pact is challenged. Animal carcasses, devoid of fur, begin to appear around the village, causing the council of elders to fear for the safety of the village, the pact, and so much more.

My boyfriend and I are going to spend about 3 or 4 days in Switzerland near the end of our trip through europe, and we want to stay in one place and hike around that area.

Thanks!

I need help finding this game I played ages ago!?
Basically its like age of empires, but its asian themed, most likely japanese. Its a real time strategy game, and quite old now. You start off in your own area behind big stone walls with your town centre, you start building your base and then start sending people into the middle area (through a portal that looks like a stone building). In the middle area there are lots of villages and wild horses you can capture. I think you could get tax from the villages. As for combat, you train different troops from your civilians, and I remember you could travel into enemy player areas through those tunnels, and use these big wide siege ladders on wheels to prop against they’re walls, then you can take over they’re towns and receive tax from it. Complicated I know, but please help me find it! I remember I really enjoyed that game! Thanks a lot!
Yes! Thank you JP! Thats the game! Thanks a lot!!

Why is the Bible more valid than any other holy text?
Because it’s the word of God?
You have no proof of this. Because there were eyewitnesses?
No there weren’t, it was written decades or centuries after the respective events took place. Plus, the holy texts of other religions claim the same thing. Because you had a spiritual experience?
People from many different religions claim this. It’s more a sign of a mental illness than of religious piety. Because you need a moral guideline?
But morals don’t come from religion. I’m an atheist, but you don’t see me going out and pillaging villages. I do eat an occasional babby, but nobody is perfect. Morals should come from common sense, not from an invisible dictator. Because there’s evidence?
But there’s not. In fact, most of the historical claims made in the Bible have been proven completely inaccurate. Because prophecies have been fulfilled?
This is yet another things that many other religions have claimed. Prophecies are either incredibly vague, bound to happen anyway, or don’t come true. The prophecies in the Bible all fall into these three categories. Because so many people believe it?
So? In some places in the Middle East, the majority of people are Muslims and they behead people who leave their religion. Does that make them right? Because it couldn’t have been written by man?
Sure it could’ve. It’s not even that well written. With so many inaccuracies and contradictions, not to mention individual and denominational interpretations, it’s far from a perfect book. Plus, many of the stories in the Bible were directly plagiarized from earlier religions and local folklore. Because the universe needs a creator?
No, that just makes it more complicated. Why would the universe need a creator, if a perfect deity didn’t need a creator? It’s adding more to the universe problem than is necessary, and it’s still not evidence he exists. Because I can’t disprove the Bible?
It’s true, because religion by definition is unfalsifiable. You also can’t disprove any other religion, or atheism, or the belief that there are invisible leprechauns dancing on my shoulders. The problem is, all logical evidence points to the Bible being a book of myths, and the vast majority of scholars and relevant scientists agree.

Why won’t my little tadpoles grow?
I found about 15 tadpoles in a deep puddle in my yard. I put them in a giant pickle jar, filled with water from the pool and a lake I live next to. I feed them algae from the lake and boiled lettuce. Regularly, I sprinkle a few flakes of fish food in the jar. They were about a centimeter long when I found them, which was 2 weeks ago. They’ve only grown about 2 millimeters since I found them. Is this normal? Is the jar not big enough, and stunting their growth? What can I do to encourage growth?

Do You Think This Is Funny?
What is black and white and red all over? 2 nuns in a chain saw fight

Catholicism in Ireland during the 1960’s?
Hi. Can anyone direct me to a website about catholic priests and nuns in Ireland and their treatment of children within their schools.Thanks

Is it okay for me to go to a Church and seduce the priest and turn every nun into a whoore?

Does anyone remember a music video from 2000 onwards were women dressed up as schoolgirls and nuns.?
In the video the women were saying the words ‘BOYZ’ and walking down a corridor. The man in the video was in a bed and was about to be caught by the nuns…Please help me I can hear the song and i’t driving me MAD!

Is peace even possible between Islam and the West?
I shudder at the thought that Islam and the West cannot find some kind of peaceful co-existence. Let me say right from the beginning that I am not a supporter of Israel and that I think US support should end immediately. I dislike Palestinians. Dancing joyously in the streets over the bombing of the Twin Towers was barbaric. The extraordinary lie that the Jews did it was corrected by Osama Bin Laden himself, who claimed responsibility. Is the news in that part of the world so censored that ordinary Muslims did not know of this? Yet despite my dislike for Palestinians, my Goddess, (yes, Goddess) tells me that I must love even people I dislike, and that hatred is a sin. Surely the Koran also says that hatred is a sin. Therefore I am sympathetic with the hardships of Palestinians (as well as the hardships of Jews). My own solution is for the USA to buy the Sinai Peninsula from Egypt, give it to the Palestinians, and give them lots of aid to develop the new country. I would also make Jerusalem an international city run by city council members and a mayor.
In addition, the war against Iraq was totally immoral. President Bush, that war criminal, fed us so many lies that most people believed that Al Qaeda and Iraq were working together to use WMD. This was debunked before the war started. Bush was eager to prove to his father that he could take out Saddam Hussein, and so he launched a pre-emptive war, something that Nazis do. Unlike most Americans I am a student of history. I am well aware that Muslim scientists in the early medieval period made many advances in astronomy, algebra, geography, surgery and medicine. Muslims invented hospitals and took much better care of the insane. In the West at the same time the insane were whipped and chained The Islamic world was introduced to gunpowder and paper making by the Chinese, and passed it on directly to the West. Thus Islam was ahead of the West until the Renaissance.
Both Muslim theologians and Christian theologians grappled with the problem of the doctrine of revealed truth (scripture) vs. discovered truth (science). The Paris dons out-argued the Papacy, and the dual approach to truth was allowed to continue. This did not happen in the Muslim world. There Islam withdrew from science, especially physics. It has been trying to catch up ever since. One of the weaknesses here is the Muslim belief that there is no cause and effect вЂ“ that everything that happens is a spontaneous expression of GodвЂ™s will.
Here we have insane religious fanatics vigorously fighting the teaching of evolution in high schools, because evolution isnвЂ™t mentioned in the Bible. The Vatican says that this is an old fight and that it is very possible that God chose to set up natural laws that operate here as natural selection. This is a very reasonable compromise between faith and science.
I am able to profoundly dislike Israel without hating Jews, and so on with people throughout the world. I detest the entire Abrahamic tradition вЂ“ Judaism, Christianity and Islam are all cut from the same Middle Eastern cloth. I despise the Christians here we call Fundies, because they believe the word of the Bible is inerrant, despite its many and significant contradictions. They piously speak of GodвЂ™s mysteries and choose to ignore the contradictions and lies in the Bible. These people are guilty of worshiping an idol, i.e. a book. This is called bibliolatry. I accuse Muslims of the same thing. It astounds us that people in the Muslim world are so willing to riot and kill when someone in the West harms a written copy of the Koran. I can go anywhere in the West and burn a Bible if I choose. I might get a ticket for violating local fire ordinances, but I wouldnвЂ™t be prosecuted for blasphemy or sacrilege anywhere. In the West these are no longer crimes. This is due to an important historical movement called the Enlightenment, in which philosophers and scientists realized that the Churches were a direct obstacle to make human life easier and healthier through science. The American Revolution was a secular revolution, designed to create a country free of the dictates of popes, cardinals, bishops, priests, nuns, monks, prophets and so on. The French Revolution was even more thorough along these lines and if Napoleon had won, priests would have been forever subject to State authority. Sounds good to me. You people seem to love theocracies. We have a long memory of the horror of the Catholic theocracy.
Speaking of theocracies, I was so infuriated by the fatwah of Ayatollah Khomenei to kill Salman Rushdie вЂ“ how dare he!? вЂ“ that I wanted to assassinate him myself. We Americans despise all the Ayatollahs. I was in Iran in 1975. The people were friendly, Teheran was a beautiful and cosmopolitan city. Everyone knew that the Shah was a dictator, but he was benevolent, and he was far better for Iran than any of the Ayatollahs have been.
Muslims are very quick to blame the USA and Europe for every act of vi

Should the and Priests and Nuns in Ireland be prosecuted in the ?
latest child abuse scandal,it is surely the devils work.
As charges have been brought in the Channel islands re. abuse at childrens home by private individuals, are catholics recieving protection from the papacy ?

How do you expect others react to your religion after child sexual abuse has stained your belief’s name?
Obviously I’m talking about the Priests, Nuns etc who has done such horribly, disgustingly sick things to trusting children. And yes, I understand that it happens in other cultures too and that not everyone who has a guiding role in their religion does such things, but seriously, this isn’t the first time – nor the last time – its happened. When are some of you going to stop making excuses for them? They are by no means better than any one of us living and breathing right now. And please, take hint in the selective nouns I’ve used, don’t start rambling on about how bold and vulgar my opinion is in the matter of grouping.
Yeah, I agree with you bigA.

Do you think it would be a good idea to go backpacking for charity with class?
so, 3 nuns visited us today and one was from nigeria , they were very nice but they are building a school for girls in the north were its a tad sexist. anyway our class want to do something to raise money our idea was backpacking to somewhere like a supermarket or go on a sponsered walk but i think thats a bit dull
my idea was to climb snowdon a little mountain in wales , or live like nuns for a day but we have to get the headmaster to approve can you help with ideas please

"When

I’ve had a crush on this guy for almost 2 years now. I used to go to school with him. We weren’t great friends. But, we knew each other. & we shared this strange relationship. I’d chat with him once in awhile. They were usually short conversations. Or, he’d stare at me whenever he saw me, he knew I liked him. He said I was cute. But, nothing ever really happened. He was always nice to me. & he once tried calling me one night (but I was in bed. DANG!) & I one of my best friends was his cousin (I didn’t find out until I told her I liked him!) & she would tell me that he’d ask about me, and see how I was. There were always little things that he’d do, that would give me hope. But, nothing would happen. Now that I moved, I still really miss him. I thought I was over him. Then I found him on facebook, and fell for him all over again. It’s too hard to try and forget about him. & I feel so sad when I see his photo, but I can’t look away. I really miss him. & I don’t know what to do! I don’t want to let go. Should I just hold on? It’s more than a crush. I don’t know if I can say I am in love with him, but, I can’t say "it’s just a crush." Of course, I’ve made a few crushes here, but I always end up comparing them to my old crush. Or, I’ll say "I like this one guy here, but I still really like (his name here) more."

does he like me or no? <3?
this weekend i went to MUN with this sixth grader, who is kinda cute. all my friends say we look great together and i really like him because he’s sweet and funny. on saturday, we laughed over really stupid things and we talked alot and drew on each other. later on in the day, i suggested we hang out (as a group) and he told me to call his room ( we were at a hotel). i did and we realized we were both watching iCarly. we talked and me and my friend almost killed each other to get to the phone. later on, we had a dance party. we didn’;t really dance, but before the dance ended, he pulled me aside and we laughed some more(:
it was the last day so there was a friendship ceremony. at the friendship ceremony, we all got candles. he set our candles directly from each other and soon everyone else joined. it was REALLY sweet(:

Strange call made by Arabic Women?
I’m sorry for my ignorance. I teach at a predominantly Muslim school. An opposing player (not the whole team) made a disparaging remark about my players being "taliban" and several players made a call that sounded a bit like a yodel … I’ve heard this from Arabic women, but I cannot find the context in which this strange sounding (to Westerners) call is made. I’d appreciate any information. Sorry for the vague description.
This was a sound made by opposing players to my players during handshakes. The opposing players did as a form of put-down to our players. Fortunately, our team has enough class to dismiss this sort of crude behaviour.

What’s a good way of going about this on facebook?
Okay, well my school has basically "hired" me (I’m not getting paid so it’s more of a volunteering thing) to tutor this guy in two classes. So, the woman in the office told me that the phone number doesn’t work, plus I’m not much of a direct person, so I wouldn’t really be comfortable with calling him anyways. But, I found him on facebook, and I’m going to send him a friend request, but I wanna like add the message about being his tutor so he doesn’t decline my friend request since I’m a total stranger. So how should I tell him that the school made me his tutor without sounding condescending or anything like that.

Everyone keeps telling me its early labor at 38 weeks. but I am not to sure.. So so confused.?
I didnt know I was in labor with my 1st child.. I have been having the worse back pains ever.. NOt including what Pains I have already..Not only have I been dealing with all these strange new pains today. (( weird painful back pain, dizziness, upper inner thigh pain, and a little tightening. but now I have diarrhea.. Vomiting.. sick I know. What could possibly be going on.. PLEASE HELP.. next doc app Tues. I am so confused. My body is trying to tell me something.. I can not take this nausetion any more. Am waiting on doctor to call. Oh.. and I did not sleep all night.. My body is refusing to sleep.. goodness..
now I also feel like I have to do number two. but nothing happens.

How do I ask him if he wants to have a long distance relationship when we just met?
I truly believe in the law of attraction and have always wanted to meet someone that I have a lot of things in common with. One night I went out with my friend and I met this guy. I couldnвЂ™t believe how many things we had in commonвЂ¦ it freaked me out. About a week and a half later we went on our first date. I really enjoyed his company and we had a great time together. Unfortunately, due to our economy, he was leaving to go work in another state. Suddenly, all these thoughts entered my head. I didnвЂ™t know what to make of our relationship. I said to myself, вЂњI really like him but heвЂ™ll be leaving soon and IвЂ™m never going to see him againвЂ¦ so just go for it.вЂќ I made it a point not to get emotionally involved and to just have fun. Being with him was amazing! I was hoping that heвЂ™d be terribleвЂ¦ it would have made it easier for me to let him go butt oh well. His words were, вЂњI wish I would have met you a long time ago.вЂќ I was not open at all about my feeling for him and just repeated to myself вЂњheвЂ™s leavingвЂ¦ heвЂ™s leavingвЂќ ItвЂ™s been 2 months since I last saw him. We text each other from time to time but our conversations are very friendly. The strange thing is that I feel he wants to be with me as much as I want to be with him and that the only thing separating us isвЂ¦ actually areвЂ¦ 7 states. ItвЂ™s been 2 months since we were together and I canвЂ™t stop thinking about him. The strange thing is that I know he has feelings for me. HeвЂ™s never mentioned anything and neither have I but, I really think thereвЂ™s something special between us and the chemistry we have for each other is so big that it could work out. IвЂ™ve never had a long distance relationship but understand weвЂ™re going to have to have a lot of trust in each other. I really want to see him so one day I mentioned that I plan on visiting a relative that lives in the same state and he said, вЂњCall me when youвЂ™re here.вЂќ (Yes, he wants to see me again!) So I purchased the flight for next month. Now IвЂ™m nervous and canвЂ™t get him out of my head. I want to know how he feels and if heвЂ™s willing to try having a long distance relationship. How do I tell him how I feel without sounding crazy?

Storyline

Plot Summary:Stacy Holt, an associate producer for a daytime talk show, is confounded by her boyfriend Derek’s unwillingness to talk about his previous relationships. Egged on by her co-worker Barb, Stacy sneaks a look at his personal digital organizer, scores the names and numbers of his exes, and sets up interviews with them—all in an effort to get closer to her man. Her plan starts to unravel, however, when she becomes friends with one of the women.

"Little

I’m only thirteen: Cut me some slack. The ground looked like a frosted white cake with the snow that clung to the grass. The evergreen trees, still clinging to their dark green needles, are coated in the white stuff. When the wind jostles them, bit of snow fall from their branches and make tiny imprints on the smooth surface. They make a small circle, on the field coated with the snow, pieces of yellow, long grass peeking out from their crusty cover. A white tailed deer – a doe – steps daintily through the white, occasionally dipping her head to sniff this branch or that clump of white grass. The wind dislodges a larger chunk of snow from the trees, and it falls with a small thud next to the graceful creature. Startled, she makes a massive jump, lifting herself off the ground and leaving large imprints in the snow as she ran.
Above, a gray squirrel examined the branch he was sitting on, which was currently slick and shiny. His small beetle-like eyes glittered and his tiny claws gripping the icy bark. He sniffed uncertainly, taking a small step forward, fluffy tail at the ready to use as a parachute if he fell. But he didnвЂ™t fall, and, more confident, he took another step forward, proudly surveying his new white domain. A loud rumbling interrupted him, and he glanced down, taking in the shiny silver thing with huge black paws ripping across the tar with yellow lines on it. Immediately he scaled the branch and slipped into a hole at the base of the branch, looking for the safety and comfort of his own home.
In the well-heated silver car sat an oblivious thirteen-year-old and her mother. One was currently listening to her iPod and lip-syncing to the words of her favorite song, all the while holding a book in her small hands. Ocean blue eyes that had a sheen of intelligence covering them scanned the page of the book quickly, flicking back to the start of the page almost as quickly as they had reached the end of it. Dirty blond hair reached her shoulders, completed with thin blond and auburn highlights and side swept bangs, bobbed up and down with the motion of the car. She was clad in her ever-present faded black hoodie with sporting holes on the elbows and weathered dark blue jeans, complete with the startling white of iPod earbuds. Her lime green ski jacket rested on the seat beside her. вЂњWhen all youвЂ™ve gotta keep is strongвЂ¦вЂќ she muttered along with the music, completely oblivious to the fact that she was doing it. Suddenly, her eyes, which had been currently alight on the page, snapped up and a smile curled on bright pink lips. She snatched a tie-dye notebook from the seat beside her, scribbling furiously with a teeth-mark sporting pencil. Marlin. She was quite aware that possibly no one would realize what that meant, along with the several phrases, lines, occasionally blocks of text and the random words scribbled on the page. The characteristic of a writer. She frowned, flipping the pencil around reflexively with one hand and erasing the word occasion and put incidence. Not a big difference to anyone but her. вЂњSage?вЂќ said a voice from the front seat. It sounded irritated, like it had called for her several times. She undid her ear buds, and glanced up to the front seat; let out a tense вЂњWhat?вЂќ She hadnвЂ™t meant it to sound impatient, but her mother took it that way. вЂњI donвЂ™t like it when you talk to me that way.вЂќ SageвЂ™s mother informed her, turning her head a fraction to revealing a fair-skinned face and one dark brown eye, from behind her black hair with strips of gray running through. It wasnвЂ™t that her mother was old: She had started to go gray like many women, early, and had decided after a little while not to dye it and вЂњembrace the gray,вЂќ whatever that meant. вЂњI wanted to ask -вЂќ she stressed the вЂњwantedвЂќ and paused after the вЂњaskвЂќ, вЂњ-did you do your paper for English?вЂќ A familiar flash of fear ran through the teenager as she struggled to recall what paper, why, when, where? Then her muscles relaxed as she realized she had done the paper and had it safely tucked away in her backpack. вЂњYeah, I did.вЂќ she said.
Mom seemed to be satisfied with that answer, so she turned back to the windshield, turning her steering wheel slightly to avoid a pothole that had formed and was currently filled with ice and snow. The car swerved smoothly and returned to its spot on the right side of the street. Sage sighed and replaced her ear buds, switching it to вЂњLight OnвЂќ by David Cook and returning to her book. Puzzling over a particular sentence. Realization of the sentence dawning quickly. Giggling weirdly and turning the page. It was a Wednesday. Sage had three courses back to back today, but as a plus it was the end of her week and she would have some time to catch up on her math homework. That and watch вЂњStand and DeliverвЂќ for interpersonal communication and then scribble out a three-page paper for it. Reserve maybe two hours for the movie. Read summary of movie in book and figure out what the te
Hmm…it’s a bit to long for my taste…how is it so far? :p
the teacher wants. Search online for a few minutes and wait for the creative juices to start flowing. Then it would take her maybe forty-five minutes to write the first draft to her paper, and then she would only have to revise her work and would be home free. Then she would have some research to do for a ten-page research paper she was writing for English, and then she would do math. Now, math wasnвЂ™t her best subject, and she always had difficulty embracing the concepts. This semester (intermediate algebra) was somehow easier – things had started to make sense – and she was starting to sense the beauty of the numbers that danced across the page, the pencil scribbling out numbers, writing their own complex language with different symbols, a different way of talking. It was practically an art form. She thought about her last class in intermediate algebra, which was spent being half-asleep and doing all the problems her teacher wrote on the board with accuracy. Then she would wait for
ten minutes while pointing out little mistakes on her motherвЂ™s answers, and then learn that she had the right answers to every question. And then she would smile, and at that moment she would feel accomplished. The first course of her day was interpersonal communication. Now, Sage was a shy person around strangers – strangely over talkative with family and friends – but in this class when they were supposed to вЂњcommunicateвЂќ she was trying to crack out from her shell and make friends with her classmates. Sadly, the duration of the course was spent sitting quietly at her desk, head propped up on her hand, listening and taking notes and nothing more.
English was more interesting, with time spent discussing the book вЂњOutliersвЂќ and being able to voice opinion along with being able to provide the right answers to the teacherвЂ™s questions with reference to the reading. But already her day was wearing on her by the time English was over, and when she walked into her math class she would be

Open Question: Rate my writing please (1-10)?
I am a 13 year old girl and here is a little preview from the book that I am writing, Seven Shadows. I am finishing up eighth grade this year and I hope to be a published author before sophomore year. Please rate from 1-10. 1 being "wow you freaking suck at writing!" and 10 being "i would totally buy your book and worship you!" (maybe not that extreme, but a little somethin like that) вЂњAll rise! Court is now in session,вЂќ the bailiff stated at the side of the court, вЂњThe honorable Erwin Woods is presiding.вЂќ
The judge was well groomed, with a presence of authority. He presented himself in a respectable manner. He definitely looked like a judge.
Two days ago, when IвЂ™d gone alone to visit my father in jail, all he told me was to support him. He admitted that he was guilty but that if IвЂ™d known the whole story, I would agree with every action that had taken place.
I took his words to heart. I loved my father and would support him even if heвЂ™d had no good reason. He was my father and that was enough.
I didnвЂ™t believe in taking another human beingвЂ™s life, but my father must have done it for a good cause. My father was a good man.
I watched him enter from the other end of the court. I was there by myself, in the front row, right behind where he was about to sit.
He walked slowly, with a dreadful look on his face and an officer on each side of him. I felt awful seeing my father like this. He took his seat, вЂњThanks for coming, Audrey.вЂќ
вЂњDad, I love you.вЂќ I whispered, as he turned away from me.
I looked around the room. My eyes soon turned to the victimвЂ™s family. The HowardвЂ™s were all dressed in black. To my surprise, John smiled a half smile at me. I tried to smile back, but it was extremely hard. I felt guilt for what my father had done to their family.
Occasionally, I would stare at the people around the room while my father was up on the stand. They looked at my father with disgust, which had me feeling ashamed.
I tried to ignore whispers from behind me, but the tension was so strong as my father spoke that I already knew what they thought of him. Worst part was, that I knew what I thought of him.
Though I was supportive of my father, he had still committed a terrible crime.
I kept looking to the same spot, where no one was sitting. I did this to try to ease my feelings and thoughts. I wanted to be done already.
I looked over for about the tenth time, but there was a boy standing there. I focused my eyes on his gleaming face. He was gorgeous.
My eyes began burning, but I couldnвЂ™t look away. I blinked because they hurt so bad, and then refocused my attention to him, except he was not there.
I rubbed my eyes as confusion swept across my face. I looked all around the room. He was gone.
I looked back at my father as the lawyers threw harsh questions at him. I cringed at his suffering. I would never want to see my poor father be humiliated like this.
After an hour and a half it was over. Usually it would be longer, but this was one of the first times, so it was shorter than the ones that would follow.
I couldnвЂ™t hug my father or kiss him or tell him how much I loved him and missed him. The officers were already hauling him back to his cell.
there’s more to this part, btw, that’s why there’s not that much detail. it’s four more pages. i understand what you are saying and i think i’m going to make some corrections, but the story isn’t about the dad really, so i wanted to focus more on the guy.

Open Question: Why are people so judgmental based on the nationality of a person?
I still don’t understand why people are very judgmental based on a person’s nationality. I’ve been judged because I am latin, mostly by white people. Little background on me. I am married to a white man, my family members have served in the military for generations, I have family in Homeland Security, Officers, Business Owners and DEA to name a few. I myself am self employed. Yet, I am judged based on being a latin. Don’t judge a book by it’s cover, as you never know what it has to offer. I watched a movie a few months back about the Tsunami. A white man was looking down on a black family who was out vacationing too. A tsunami hit and the white man was stuck under mass ruble, the black man looked at him and thought twice about saving this man. He walked away and walked back to take the white man out of the rubble. You just never know when you will need help from those you look down at.

Open Question: Need Help Finding a Children’s Book?
I remember reading to my brothers (when they were very little) a children’s book about these friends that go into a castle or haunted house and there’s an enormous black knight in it and some other scary things. I don’t remember it well but I believe the pictures in the book (all black and white) were similar to the pictures in the Harry Potter series. I believe the front of the book had a picture and a tan border. That’s all i can provide. Can anyone help me out with this?

Open Question: is it me or is Twilight a bit racist. WHERE ARE THE ASIANS?
okay maybe racist is a bit far but seriously. look at the book. filled with white people, 2 blacks so far, tyler and laurent. and NOT A SINGLE ASIAN MAJOR CHARACTER (eric doesnt count, he’s mentioned very little and is a minor character). this just staked the twilight series as a typical american novel that has no consideration for asians. i mean look at the covens. yeah theres an irish coven, egyptian coven, multiple american covens (why does that not surprise me)- but there IS NO ASIAN COVEN. and the whole series isnt just focused on Forks, i mean they must have come across an asian or a black. i personally wasnt surprised when stephanie meyer killed off the black vampire. but at least there was a black vampire, as opposed to there being no asian vampire. am i overreacting or are there people who can see what im talking about? and i know the category is in movies but im talking about the book series.
Brianna- uhh yeah brianna you know how i said "NOT A SINGLE ASIAN MAJOR CHARACTER (eric doesnt count, he’s mentioned very little and is a minor character)" –note the ‘MAJOR’ character and the whole ‘eric doesnt count, he’s mentioned very little and is a minor character’. and yeah "that geeky math kid" thats how the only asian is portrayed in this book? once again, im not surprised. в™Ґв™ЄLa Tua Cantanteв™Єв™Ґ- spanish counts as white. also, Carmen and Eleazar can speak fluent spanish. see? you dont see any characters who can speak fluent chinese, japanese, korean, taiwanese or anything. Invisigoth- i am impressed by your points and level. but back to the point. "here is a blood sucking shape shifting cat demon from China" -that is a perfect device that can be used. there was a vampire from China who’s ability was shapeshifting and favored the form of a cat. hey that can actually turn out pretty cool. but alas, no. the twilight law still stands- no asians allowed. not enough space for all
natalilly- does it hurt to have an asian major character? why is it so insisted that the asians remain excluded. An G- thats probably because your race is always shown. your white presume? Joey- joey i think you are confused. races, not countries. white, asian, latino and black. Jason B- uhh yeah no duh thats kinda the basis of this question. but im assuming you mean as in folklore. correct, we have no vampires, so why not make an interesting story out of it? the possibilities. Mitchi_rocks_yo_socks- are you an asian too? your display pic looks like it. why am i not surprised another asian agrees here? Amber- i suggest you read all the above, especially my message to brianna where it goes- "that geeky math kid" thats how the only asian is portrayed in this book? once again, im not surprised. and i also said "and i know the category is in movies but im talking about the book series." at the very end. so dont tell me about how there was a minor asian character in the movie.

Open Question: Essay on whether Huck Finn should be banned or not?
I need a little help =) My side is that it should not be banned. My three points:
-If we do not learn from the past, we will not be able to progress
-Pap was one of the worst characters, and he is white. Jim is one of the best, and he’s black (obviously I worded it better than that haha)
-Mark Twain was just expressing the ideology in that period of time. He was being accurate. I have examples for each point except the first. What events in the book prove that? Is there anything at all I can use? I am only allowed to use quotes from the book. Thanks so much.

Resolved Question: I need help with this book: author and/or title please?
Okay, a few years ago, somewhere between 2001-2004, I read this book. It was about this girl that was a magician or something. She lived in Oregon. Anyway, she’s going to put on a show or something, so she goes to the magic shop. Nothing there catches her interest; all the good stuff is simple to figure out, or is too expensive, etc. She wants a really knock-’em-dead trick. So she decides to look in this desk, and when she takes the drawer out, she finds a secret compartment behind it. Inside the compartment is this black thing with buttons that are all the colors of the rainbow (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, etc., in that order). It is called a TRANSMUTER.
I think she steals it or something…anyway, it makes you invisible, and someone is after her because he wants it.
I do not remember any characters names. However, I do have a general description of the book. It was a little over 200 pages (I think it was between 202-220 pages). It was probably written in the 80s or 90s. The copy that I had was a hardcover, and it had a girl with brown hair on the cover. She was wearing a magician suit, and was holding a top hat in one hand. The hand that was holding the top hat was trasparent. I THINK (not sure) that the title MAY HAVE BEEN "Disappearing Act", but I am not positive. If you have read this book, know the author or the title, or know where I can find this book (I’d love to read it again, it was one of my favorites and the first book over 200 pages that I read, lol, I was between 8 and 10, I think). Thank you soooo much!
It was NOT one of the Ghostwriter books by J.B. Watson…

Open Question: What song is from Little Black Book?
In little Black Book,

Resolved Question: Here is a story I have been working on…?
cover >>>> Summer Prologe Amanda and Jacob are the sweetest people you could of met. [You will understand that part if you read this book.] Now one hot fourth of July was the day they met and it was a very important day of course! Read on to find out more!!! 1] We meet. Amanda I walked into my room I had to get ready for the Fourth of July party my mom and I were throwing. It was a way for her to catch up with her old friends and for me to find some more. I meen I am not a friendless loser my friend Lilly is out at summer camp for a week so she will be back soon. I know more people but some people I just don’t get along with. "Amanda!" I hear my mom calling my name. "Come down here now people are starting to come!" I have always wondered why people had to come so early! "Lilly and her mother are here!" She new that would make me come downstairs. "Coming!" I shouted then ran down the steps to the back door. My mom and Lilly were standing there to greet me. "Hey ‘manda." Lilly said. Lilly’s dress is blue with white swirls her black hair is up in little buns on the back of her head tied with white ribbons. So I have to admit she is kind of dressed like me but thats ok because we are friends. "Hey Lilly you look very nice." I said and I flashed her a toothy smile. "You to so who is going to help you with the fireworks?" She asked. I could tell by the sound of her voice that she wanted to but, my moms friends son Jacob was supposed to. "A boy named Jacob he should be here soon you know maybe you can to!" I said exitedly looking toward my mom with a hopefull smile. "Sure she can we have enough." My mom said she pointed towerd the garage where all the fireworks were ’stashed’. So Lilly and I dashed to the garage and I asked her to help my sort the fireworks out in three’s. "Sure." She said with a little shrug and picked up all the fireworks and put them in groups. Lilly really loves to organize things and clean. That so unlike me! "Ok, this is your pile this is my pile and this is Jacob’s plie." She sounded so confodent about it, about everything actually! Lilly was one of those people who you love to be around with she is just so sweet and inviting. "Hi!" I heard a boy’s voice. I jumped a little bit because it kinda scared me it must of scared Lilly to because she gasped. "I’m Jacob." Jacob has brown down by the tip of his ears, almond shaped brown eyes. He is wearing a blue shirt with red stripes and white buttons. "You look ready for the party, nice outfit!" I said laughing and gave him a little wink so he new I was’nt trying to hurt his feelings. "Hi Jacob I am Amanda and this is my best friend Lilly." Hey Amanda hey Lilly." He came to shake both of our hands. He seemed like he would be a real gentelman and a really good friend. "Your pile of fireworks is over there." Lilly said and grabbed his arm to guide him were the fireworks were. "Wow that one is huge!" His face lit up. I smiled at him. He was so sweet and the same age as I was well at least that is what my mom told me. "So Jacob how old are ya’? "Lilly asked. I could tell she liked him. That was ok he was cute but I didn’t know him that much. "I’m thirteen." Ah so are Amanda and I that is so cool!" She tryed to talk to him but she sounded like a psycho hyper rat she kept on asking him personal qestions and bothering him. He rolled his eyes a little. He must not like her! Lilly’s pretty but she can get to be like a tick under your skin. To make a long story short she has ADHD and talks fast. "So Amanda wheres your set of fireworks?" He asked. "Ove- Over there by the tire." Lilly interupted. Jacob laughed and walked over by me to get away from Lilly apparently. Lilly paced towerd him. "Lil’ can’t you just give him a little space!" I was starting to get mad I did not want him to be like I don’t wanna be around here if I have to put up with her crazy friend. "Oh no its fine she’s bothering me." Oh please! I could totaly tell she was by the tone of his voice and his facial expression. I rolled my eyes right at him. He gave me a look like I-am-not-going-to-do-that-to-her-that-is-to-mean! I could understand that he was not a mean person so I laughed. "Ok so people are coming lets go ask my mom when we can light them." I said and told them to comon. My mom was out mingiling with people. She really did need some friends ever sience my mom and dad divorced. My dad want’s nothing to do with us now but we want nothing to do with him! He lives somewhere in Montana and we live in Nebraska. My dad was real mean but my mom got sick of it and filed a divorce. "Hey mom when can we light the fireworks?" "When it gets dark out." It was sunset out so we would have to wait a bit. "Ok mom!" Lilly and Jacob looked bored. "Lets go make our plates then sit by the fire out back and tell ghost stories till we can light fireworks!" They seemed to like tha

Resolved Question: How is the first chapter of my novel…? Experts and readers?
I want to know few things about the 1st chapter of the first book in my three novel series.**
Is the language good?
Does it have overused adjectives?
Is it predictable….if you say yes, tell me the way you think it’ll end
is it copied from anywhere…as far as I know, I don’t think so
And is it interesting, specially for a teen?
Did you get confused with the names of places and all the things belonging to the OTHER world? (my friend said it was confusing)
Is the dialogue real?
And a little help with punctuation, specially commas It was only the month of May, but the nights were cold and bitter in the entire country. Days were hardly any different. People barely saw sunshine or the starry sky. The handsome windows of rich mansions and the dirty ones of not-so-rich flats were so foggy that one could not see past them. Even in fast moving cities of the West like Teward City and Ozvizzle, the roads were still and lifeless. And no one, not even experts could understand the reason beyond all this. And there was one more thing that was mysterious: somehow everything was ultimately connected to the Paradisian War between the Malfadian Group called Shadows of Alfed and the Perthernian Army, even though it was being thousands of kilometres away, across the Dark Sea.
Though no one had foreseen, the Paradisian War turned out to be one of the bloodiest wars in the history of the entire world. Deaths followed deaths. Thousands had already fled to the East, and a few to the West.
Malfadia was simply a dry desert spread over a vast area. Hardly any water was found on the surface. People had to go hungry for days. Life wasnвЂ™t easy.
Perthern was quite different. Though the north was dry, but the rest of the land was pleasant, green and beautiful. And people were much more relaxed and comfortable.
The war began when a few Malfadians attacked Perthern for what they called вЂa better lifeвЂ™. But their motives were not all that good.
On the seventeenth of May, Teward City saw the usual cold morning. The roads were deserted, but for a group of three people.
All but one of them were in their late twenties, and were wizards. The other was ages old since he was an Ark. And even the folklores said that Arks do not die until they are murdered on a full moon night. The truth was so.
One of the wizards, Milan was thin, tall and fair-complexioned. His hair and eyes were both black. The other, called Noveur was as different from Milan as he could be: short, plump and balding.
.
The Ark, like any other of its kind was tall, thin and pale. There wasnвЂ™t a drop of blood in him, except in his eyes, which were a deep shade of red. He seemed to be radiating a kind of chill around him. He was called Enestus.
All three of them were dressed in a Robeur, a popular clothing amongst Magicians. The Robeur was something like a trouser clumsily attached to a cloak.
вЂIsnвЂ™t this the place?вЂ™ Enestus asked.
Noveur nodded.
вЂBut what if they are just lying?вЂ™ Enestus asked again, no more able to hide his fear.
вЂThey wonвЂ™tвЂ™ Noveur replied.
вЂBut just say~вЂ™
вЂThen we shall have to fight, wonвЂ™t we?вЂ™ Noveur said
вЂOr flee?вЂ™ the other suggested.
вЂYou may do so now, if you wish to.вЂ™
Enestus was abashed.
Milan didnвЂ™t join their conversation. Though physically in Teward, his mind was back in Perthern, where his wife and one year old child were.
вЂMilan, donвЂ™t worry,вЂ™ Noveur assured him. вЂSomeday, theyвЂ™ll realise what you did was the best.вЂ™
Milan just shed a tear.
вЂToday was his first bвЂ™day.вЂ™
вЂLetвЂ™s proceed,вЂ™ the Ark suggested, as he took a few steps. The other two followed suit.
After a few minuteвЂ™s walk, a gray and ancient building came into view. The window-panes were broken, the cement was coming off and the building looked close to collapsing. The two men and the Ark entered to find a shabby and dim-lit interior, despite the fact that the sun was up. The walls were battered and spiders had found a good home in the building.
A loud voice echoed throughout the building, as though coming from the building itself.
вЂNow that you have come here, we shall fight. But I trust itвЂ™s no more that threeвЂ™
вЂJust the three of us,вЂ™ Noveur answered.
вЂExcellent! The top floor, now,вЂ™ the voice said.
The three obeyed. Taking the staircase to the extreme left, which was as battered and shabby as the rest of the building, the three of them reached the top floor.
The top floor was quite different from the rest of the building. It was fairly lit. Every inch of the walls seemed brand new and untouched. A huge arch stood in the middle, not for any purpose, but just to be there. The rest was just door and doors, all of them made of oak. A symbol, which resembled a key to some extent, was engraved on each of these doors.
After a few silent moments, footsteps could be heard and then came the owner of the voice that had echoed throughout the building. And stood before the three Magicians, the most feared, the most dreaded Ark of all times. Deeds he had do

Storyline

Plot Summary:Sequel to ‘House of 1000 Corpses’ is set some months later with the Texas State Police making a full-scale attack against the murderous Firefly family residence for the 1,000+ murders and disappearances of the past several years. But three of the family members escape, including Otis, Baby Firefly and Baby’s father Captain Spaulding. The evil trio go on a road trip, leaving dozens of mangled bodies in their wake. Evading a massive Texas Rangers dragnet as well as a group of equally murderous bounty hunters led by Ken Dwyer (the brother of a policeman Mamma Firefly killed in ‘House of…’) who’s obsessed with finding the deadly killers, the surviving Firefly clan gather at a run-down amusement park owned by Captain Spaulding’s half-brother, Charlie Altamont, whom offers them shelter and a new base of operations for their killing spree as Sheriff Dwyer, the Texas Rangers, the FBI and others slowly close in.

"Devil's

the more gory and terrifying the better.
i am looking for a new movie to watch.
i’ve seen the saw movies and devil’s rejects, house of wax, etc
i need something new (or old) but scary and violent.
i like those kinds of movies after watching the backyardigans, wonder pets and baby first tv all day, i need something adults only and not overtly sexual (i don’t really care for those kinds of movies).
thanks.
i only have about 3 hours before they go to bed.

What’s you favorite horror movie?
Mine is a tie between "House Of 1,000 Corpses" and "The Devil’s Rejects"… which one is a sequel to the other. I like "Halloween" too… The remake. Rob Zombie is awesome =)
Dude Hostel was the shit. When the dude cut the chicks eyeball out… that was awesome. I was a 17 year old girl watching it at my sisters and when that happened I was sitting there smiling and my sisters husband was in the kitchen gagging lol
I know the order those movies are in lol I was just saying that that’s why the were a tie =)

I Wish I Was In Tijuana, Eating Barbequed Iguana…?
What are the most weird, crazy, unusual, or offbeat song lyrics You’ve ever heard? (Thanks to The Devil’s Reject for listing Mexican Radio by Wall Of Voodoo on another Q) Bonus: Have You ever eaten barbequed iguana? If not, what’s the strangest thing You have eaten?
Yahoo suggested category Pets>Reptiles….LOL!!
I love that song Leah.
Haha nice Silver, that works.
Frog legs, really? wow.
Yet another great song title Jake!!
Oxen Stomach??? Wowwwww

Rob Zombie: THE KING OF HORROR!?
There use to be so many different writer/directors that made really great horror films, but not anymore. As of recent, Rob Zombie has emerged as the, well at least in my opinion, as the King of Today’s horror flicks. I mean the man has went above and beyond with his movies. I am a big fan of all the Halloween movies and I was very skeptical when he did a remake. In short, the movie BLEW ME AWAY. Now he’s coming out with a part 2. I hope he does the whole series, or maybe he’ll surprise us and just do the two. Don’t know. I also loved House of 1000 Corpses and The Devil’s Rejects. Like I said before, in my opinion he is this generations master of horror. What do you guys think? HALLOWEEN 2 (H2) comes out in theatres August 28th. CANT WAIT!

Do you agree that these are scary movies?

House of a 1000 corpses(2003) OR The Devil’s Rejects (2005)?
Which is iit?

Horror movie fans?!??!?
So my girlfriend and I are big fans of horror movies. We’ve seen really nice ones at the theatre such as wolfcreek, the skeleton key, the devil’s rejects, and when a stranger calls. But I also like some of the really old horror movies from the 1940’s and 1950’s era such as frankenstein and the boris karloff movies such as "Isle of the Dead" and "Bedlam." Now she insists on only seeing the newer ones. How can I convince someone so stubborn to take an interest in these older horror classics? do any of you also enjoy the scary movies from that era?

Song from the movie The Devil’s Rejects…?
what is the song playing when it cuts to the scene of otis, baby, and captain spaulding in the van driving to charlie’s and its like a guitar riff

The devil’s rejects/house of 1000 corpses?
what are your opinions on these 2 movies?..i beleive ive seen parts of both-i know the devils rejects was made after and their is a similar cast in them, but how important is it to watch in order? for me, i dont like to watch things out of order unless it doesnt matter…to me even spiderman has to be watched in orded…i can make exceptions for bonds and any slasher movies (except ones like halloween 1+2)…so basically how important is the story from "corpses" in "rejects"… the reason i ask is "corpses" has significantly worse reviews than the other…i like horror movies, mainly if theres a good atmosphere.. i can handle gore, but i dont want it to be the main selling point of a movie, as in the later "saw"s…so from a horror fans perspective how do these 2 rank, and how important is the order in these

How are the Firefly family all connected?
In "House of 1000 corpses" and "The devil’s rejects" how are the Firefly family all connected to one another? I know the clown guy is Baby’s dad and mother Firefly is her mum but don’t understand how the rest are connected, especially Dr. Satan.
