Movie Rating Guide Knowledge Base

Does anyone know a good movie rating guide? i want a movie rating guide which is in depth and tells what each rating allows.
How do they determine the rating (number of stars) on a movie on a cable program guide? I've seen really good movies rated with one or two stars, while other pathetic movies rated with three or four stars. I know it's a matter of taste, which is subjective, but many of the "star" ratings do not reflect the collective ratings of sites like IMDB's top 250. I tried to jfgi, but it has led down too many dead-ends.
Do you believe the quality of a movie is based on its rating on IMDB? I think generally, yes, a bad movie will have a very low rating on IMDB, but there are some movies I love which also have low ratings, and the other way around. Do you follow IMDB and use it as a guide to what movies you should/shouldn't watch?
How much do you follow the video game and movie rating systems? a. exactly b. strongly c. as a mere guide d. a little e. not at all
How to create bollywood movie website? Hi, i want to create a section in my website. in which i want to show latest bollywood movies, Where people can review and rate movie. can anyone guide me. required script should be php/mysql based
How do movies on your onscreen tv guide get rated by stars? I don't mean the age ratings, but the stars given to identify the quality of the movie? One star, two stars, etc. Who gives these ratings and how are they given?
What is the most comprehensive movie book is? I have the DVD & Video guide by M. Martin & M. Porter? This is a pretty good book dont get me wrong but it doesnt have all of the movies in it that I want. What I am looking for is a book that has the largest list. A plus would be a synopsis of each of the movies and a rating.
DVD Video Guide Book? This may sound like a strange question, but here it is: I have this book called DVD & Video Guide by Mick Martin & Marsha Porter, what I am looking to do is to input them on an Excel spreadsheet to make it easier to find movies by either director or cast (using the ctrl+f combo and selecting find all) I have the spreadsheet set up to list this info: Movie Title:Movie Year:Movie Rating:Movie Genre:Movie Synopsis:Movie Length:Director:Cast: from left to right. I am currently (slowly that is) typing them into the spreadsheet. Now my question is, is there a place where they are all listed where I can copy and paste them or does anyone have this typed out already. I would like to get it done and not be still inputting them many many years later? The book is like 1,291 pages so typing them all will take some time. Any suggestions - I'm a big movie buff and currently work for Hollywood Video and would like to take my notebook there to aid me in searching as their search is limited in its search - my understanding (course I only started today) is you can only search for titles and not cast and director. Thanks.
You know the movie National Lampoons Vacation? Well on the tv guide it said it was coming on on nickelodeon on my tv guide and its rated R Do you think they made a mistake and it said it was going to come on like last week.
Is this a good movie review? My english assignment is due tomorrow i just want someone Else's opinion on my review is it alright? So here is the story on the old classic movie that went through its ups and downs and stereotypical views, “Billy Elliot”. Through out the movie it goes over the stereotypical view of “Boys don’t dance” while through different parts of the movie girls’ dance and boys’ box, the way it’s suppose to. Billy Elliot (Jamie Bell) goes through life the way his father and brother want him to. Through the movie it shows scenes of his father, Jack Elliot (Gary Lewis) pushing Billy’s dreams down the drain by making Billy dance around the ring the way because it’s the “manly” thing to do. While Billy’s at boxing one day he notices Mrs Wilkinson (Julie Walters) and girls in frilly tutus pushing a piano into the end of the hall close to Billy’s Boxing class. After joining them in practise after boxing he finds him self ditching boxing and joining the girls in Ballet. Through out the rest of the movie billy explores the way of life which the movie portrays as “you never always get what you want”. Billy ends up having to feel the rejecting from him father after finding out he had been skipping Boxing for Ballet. Though after alot of ups and downs his father warms up for Billy’s passion and lets him do what him dreams to do. Some parts of the movie is a bit predictable though there are some twists and turns that makes the movie more entertaining especially the way they swear in their ‘Old English’ accents. Jamie Bell plays the part of the young boy of Billy Elliot who has also played in the movie “King Kong”; Julie Walters plays the part of the middle aged, ballet teacher Mrs Wilkinson who helps Billy accomplish his dreams. Then there is Gary Lewis, Billy’s father, Jack Elliot who plays a main role in Billy’s life. All three main actors are excellent in playing there roles and can keep a straight face through the whole movie. There believable, breathtaking acting really does this movie well; i don’t think there are any other better actors for the job. The scene that really shows their acting skills off would be the fight between Mrs Wilkinson and Billy’s father and brother, Tony Elliot (Jamie Draven) about Billy and his passion for Ballet. Director Stephan Dalby, if i must say did a phenomenal job on directing the movie. The way he has guided the movie, not just the plot of the story but the way the movie is captured through the scenery and filming. Other than that the movie was really good, i fairly enjoyed it. The acting was excellent and there were no real bad points of the movie. I recommend this to people who like a good drama but all together it’s still a good movie to watch. My rating for this movie out of 5, 5 being the best, is 5 out of 5 for a good classic movie that goes through absolutely everything. anything need to be changed?

Chapter 27 movie question PLEASE HELP? ugh. i HATE asking a more than one question on a subject. I am going to blockbuster. I recently began reading "The Catcher in the Rye" which made me think of the murder of John Lennon, as I am a big Beatles fan. I also like Jared Leto. and what luck for me, I stumbled upon this movie. it is rated R. TECHNICALLY i am not supposed to be the age of watching rated R but some of my favorite movies are rated R. My parents do not care if i watch these movies as long as there is no male nudity. Sure, some of the movies have like some dudes butt- but not his wang. the movie with the most nudity i have seen is Animal House. That is more nudity then i would like to have to see. So essentially, all I am asking is if Chapter 27 has any male nudity. PLEASE HELP ME! I am going soon and i can't get it if i don't know. I checked the IMDB parental guide and it didn't say there is any (i don't like having to see female nudity, but if it's a movie i really want to see, i can overlook it as can my parents. BONUS-would you recommend the movie? FOR THE LOVE OF GOD WILL SOMEONE HELP ME!!!!!!!! how has no one on Y!A right now NEVER seen that movie so Leto/Chapman never gets naked?
Who ranks movie star ratings (3 star, 4 star etc)? The star ratings in my local tv guide and on-screen guide do not match, and i don't know where either gets their numbers. Is there an "official" star rating and who assigns this? This question cropped up while arguing about which was the worst star wars movie: Ep 1 Phantom Menace (Jar Jar) or Ep 2 Attack of the Clones (dull). Thanks!

Ever think to yourself "how in the hell did this movie only get 1 and a half stars"? Do you think the people in charge of rating films are on crack sometimes? It seems like the movies I like most, get bs ratings and sometimes crap gets 4 stars. Rarely are they accurate, imo. ps. Look through the cable guide and see what I mean.

Who gives movies star ratings? like when ur looking thru ur guide and u look at movie info itll hav a rating between 1 star and 4 stars. i was just wondering who rates these movies and wat do they go by
What's The Name Of That Movie? There's this movie that's pretty stupid, and I don't remember the name of it. One of the main characters names is Topper, and he's a soldier secret agent guy. In the movie, he's in a limo, and the limo driver continuously watches Topper and the woman get "busy" in the backseat. Then there's the part when the blond woman with the mole and Topper go to the army officer, and say he's gone. (Topper and the woman shows the officer a piece of paper and it says "you're out, they're in") Then, there's this part that I like the most, when he was shooting enemy soldiers and there was a counter on the screen. When he killed 100 people, he achieved the "robocop" rating, when he killed 200 people, he achieved the "total recall" rating, and when he got the last rating, he threw shells at his opponents and they died. Please, that movie was so funny to me, but I missed the name. Don't have a tv guide, and this is cheaper.

Do you guys feel like Indian movies should be rated ? I feel like Indian movies should be rated liked the hollywood movies into General ,pg ( parent guided ), pg13, restricted and stuff. I think a lot of the Indian movies that are inappropriate for the kids because of sexual references or violence that aren't always appropriate . I think if they are rated parents would have a better idea of what their children can and can't watch. Don't u think ? I feel that because it isn't rated youngsters get exposed to a lot of profanity ? What do u guys think ?
how are movies star ratings calculated and why would they change.(dish network,tv guide)? I always assumed that they were the average of many critics oppinions. example: 2 years ago I clearly remember the Exorcist was a 4 star movie,now it is a 3 1/2 star movie. example: armageddon is now classified as a 1 1/2* though I remember seeing listed as a 2 1/2 (maybe 3,can't recall) these are the 2 examples that spurred this ? though I'm sure there are many others. they are the same versions of the movie and you would think the ratings would be a fixed idea.not that I really care for what they are rated
How should I rate movies on Netflix? How do you rate them? I just got netflix last week and I'm loving it. However, I'm wondering about ratings. When I look at movies most are rated 4.5 to 5, so it's gotten to where I assume movies with a rating of only 3 are "bad." However, the guide says 3 stars actually means that you "liked it," 4 means "really liked it," 5 means "loved it." I'm guessing that most people probably just give movies they like 5 stars and movies they don't like 1 star. I did that when I first go it, but now I'm going back and rerating a lot of my 5 stars as 3 star or 4 star, so my recommendations are good, but I can't help but think that I'm hurting these movies reputations, because of what I said in the last paragraph. How do you rate movies on netflix?

Will you please rate my practice SAT essay? Here's the prompt: Beauty is not a quality in people or in objects themselves. It exists in the mind that perceives these objects, and each mind perceives beauty differently. To seek real beauty, in some absolute sense, is pointless. Where one person sees beauty, another may even see the opposite. For this reason, we all ought to accept our own perceptions of who or what is beautiful, and not be influenced by the perceptions of others. Adapted from David Hume, "Of the Standard of Taste" Assignment: Should we be influenced by others' perceptions of the beauty of people or things? Plan and write an essay in which you develop you point of view on this issue. Support you position with reasoning and examples taken from you reading, studies, experience, or observations. Here's my response: Beauty is not in the eye of the beholder. Otherwise being beautiful would be something akin to being appreciated. This fact does not rule out the importance of others' opinions, however. We should trust the judgment of those are qualifies to recognize beauty, along with the opinion of the general populace. Take Roger Ebert, for example. Everyone recognizes his ability to find beauty in a film. Ebert's entire career is based on telling people whether a film is good or not. He has made movies the theme of his life and is an expert in the field so people turn to him for guidance. This is precisely the role of a critic in any area of art. Yet even critics can be at variance in their opinions. This points to the fact that beauty is intrinsic to a thing, for something cannot be beautiful and ugly at the same time. The painting 'The Scream' illustrates this. Violent colors depict a crudely drawn figure with its hands clasping its face. Is it beautiful? Some say yes, others no, but 'The Scream' cannot be both at once. We should pay attention to others' judgments of beauty, but we must realize that the perception of beauty is not at all the same as the thing itself. Their opinion may guide us to beauty, but it does not on its own make anything beautiful. ____________________________________________ Please rate it on a scale of 1-6 (1 is the worst, 6 is the best), and if you have time I would appreciate advice on grammar and how to make my essays longer. Thanks! :)

Is 'just stop watching porn' enough to stop porn addiction ? My room-mate has stopped watching porn altogether, ( as he thinks that he may be slightly addicted to porn ). A week has passed by, but, he has put the computer to automatically download, all day & night, the following- some porn ( only 3 movies ) some educational porn ( Guide to .... ) & some R rated Hollywood movies just for the sake of downloading something. I know that he does not watches porn for sure, as I remain with him all the time & whatever is downloaded, goes straight to his 320 GB portable hard drive, which is kept away & is plugged in only for this task. So, (1) Is he still addicted to porn ??? (2) Is there any harm in what he is doing ( the downloading & not watching part ) ??
why do you think Twilight (or New Moon) is inappropriate for younger kids? I really only want to hear from people that have seen it because the others don't have evidence to go by, just hear say/book/previews. I've seen both and there were just 2 scenes I fast forwarded/covered their eyes (5 and 8 yr old): the brief kissing in the bedroom, and the James attack. In New Moon, the head squeeze by the Volturi, and the more passionate kisses. So, if you're against it, why? and if so, are you also against Harry Potter, Spiderman, Star Wars, LIttle Mermaid, Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, and pretty much every other Fairy Tale/Disney movie because they all have a hero, villain, and love story...which is what those Twilight movies/books have. I've banned certain G rated movies in my house because I didn't like how my kids acted after watching it (sassy/violent-acting out fights in Lion King, or scared from the evil queens in Fairy tales), and some PG or PG-13 movies I think are fine for them and I'm there to guide them and explain as Parental Guidance (PG) means. I hear a lot of people shocked that I've let my kids watch it and I just want to know why and if they are consistent in their viewing discretion. Thanks :) I didn't say clearly, but my kids have seen both and love them. The 5 year old asks questions throughout the whole thing in the sense of understanding she's too young, but that's better when it comes to comments you don't really want them understanding. They actually think about the movie when they're scared at night to help them feel better they like it so much! It did kinda bother me that they've gotten so obsessed with it, but then I remember, they get obsessed with any movie they like: Nemo, Little Mermaid, Ice Age, etc. That's what kids do.
Why do people consider Jehovah's Witnesses a brainwashed cult? I have been a going to meetings of Jahovah's Witnesses since I was a baby, and now after all these years I really wonder, why do people think we are a brainwashed cult? First of all, we are not a cult. A cult is a group who follows one person, their human leader. We do not fallow a human leader, we follow God and God's word the Bible. Our Elders guide us, they never lead us. They don't give talks about what they think, they give talks about God and Jesus. If we are a cult, then so is all the other religions. As for being brainwashed... That's just hogwash. Simply hogwash. That is the most crazy thing I've ever heard. We aren't brainwashed. I have no idea why people think that. We have free will. We aren't forced to do anything. If we miss a meeting for some reason, we aren't looked down apon by others. If we can't go out in service for some reason, we aren't put down. Many Witnesses I know watch TV, enjoy music, play video games, go to the movies. Granted, we don't go out and buy the newest M rated game or go to a violence filled R rated movie, but what we do watch and play, we aren't forced not to do it by any means. How could Jesus be God? Jesus prays to God, it is said he is the Son of God, it never says he is God. I know what the Ten Commandments are, and I don't think I'll become a God. I've come to notice that there are many rude people on this site. I really don't understand why we are considered a cult. We follow the same God normal Christans do, we also read the Bible. Why are we a "cult" and not them? We do not disagree with higher learning. School is important. We just think that life should be more simple, and not spending years in college. Personally, I plan to go to a nearby tech school. Exactly, NMB. Honestly, I don't view us as a cult, but even so, if others consider us a cult, their religion is a cult as well. Technically speaking.
Why is the film "Dark Harvest," rated R? My mom and I were at the video store looking at horror films. She saw the first scarecrow movie "Dark Harvest." I asked if I could see it while she looked at the sequel. Under the numeric rating on the bottom of the sequel it gives the reason why it was rated R, language. When I looked at the fist movie it just said that it was rated R, and didnt give an explanation. So before my mother lets me see "Dark Harvest" see wants to know why its rated R. So I need to know if there is any sex/nudity, violence, language, or drug use in it. Oh, and I already checked Imdb and they didnt have a parents guide to the reason for the rating like they usally do, so best of luck Im counting on you.

Need a TV Expert That Can Guide Me To Choose The Right TV? I recently replaced a Sharp Aquos that my son broke by accident. It was a 42 inch. I purchased a new Sharp Aquas this time it was a 47inch...it has been the biggest mistake. My ex-husband said that the problem is the refresher rate...but he wouldn't explain what number I have to purchase so this doesn't happen again. Well now I want to return the tv but I need to find out if "the refresher rate" is what is causing every single show to look like a REALITY SHOW!!!! IT IS DRIVING ME INSANE EVEN THE MOVIES LOOK LIKE REALITY SHOWS. Please any tech-pros let me know what I have to look for so I will not do this again. 10 points to best answer !

What is a good clean(no adult material), humorous, science fiction (preferably sci-fi adventure) book to read? Please suggest a few books. I also like stories with romance but only if it is a small part of the story and very chaste (think original Star Wars movies). Please rate the books (G, PG, PG-13, R and why they are rated that way, such as for violence, thematic elements, etc.). Thanks for your suggestions Here's a list of all the science fiction I've read (yes, I know, not very much): the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (liked), the Stargate SG-1 Fandemonium novels (liked), Tatooine Ghost (liked), The Power of Un (liked), a few of the Stargate Atlantis Fandemonium novels (liked), Goners series (liked), Putting up Roots (liked), and The billion-dollar boy (liked).

I've been dreaming of Death lately... What does it mean? I've had 4 dreams recently about death; 1) It was like a mystery game, and I was in it as well as playing it. At one point one of my best friends, who I used to like and used to like me, was a murderer. And he was going to kill me. He calmed down and told me that it was because he never got to tell me he liked me a lot. The rest of the dream was a mystery murder game. 2) I had a sleepover with friends, and then we went to an empty parking lot. There was a truck and a big building near us. Random people kept doing STUPID things with the truck and it ended up killing them. It played out with a lot of different people. All strangers. 3) I went to a rated R movie with friends. It was called Deathtime? It was supposed to be like a Final Destination kinda thing. The beginning the girl was on a roller coaster about to die, but I never saw it. 4) It was at my school, and there was some game going on. I had two little kids guiding me through it. Everyday one person (I assume of my friends) had died (or was to die) and I figured out that I was going to be last. I told the little girl kid, that I loved her, and I guess the kids were the killers cause I told them to kill me with poison. After a while I was anxious to get my death over with and see how it played out, but it never happened.
why is orphan rated R? ok, so i already checked imdb for the parents guide but it didnt say anything about what sexual context is in the movie! does anyone know?
Why do so many Christians emphasise that God only sent Christ to die for our sins ? some say he dint come to guide/teach people but only to "save" mankind from the depths of hell. is Christianity all about the death of Jesus ? dont his life and his teachings mean nothing ? And the movie "Passion of the Christ" ? i just dont get it . how is it supposed to "inspire" people ? theres nothing in the movie except a man being brutally tortured non stop ( rated R). no teachings nothing. what the hell ? Your opinions ? And @ Atheists - dont just say its all bs or delusions anyway. give your opinions for why they think that way ? (easier to convert?) etc etc
How do i get rid of my fear of the dark? today me and my step mom went to fry's today and i went into the pc game section.There i saw halo 2 (no halo 3 in sight) and the strategy guide.I picked it up and showed it to her.She said no cause it was rated m.Then she said "When you stop sleeping with the night light then you can watch scary movies and play m rated games".So how do i get rid of my fear? It's pretty darn hard because i am into Violent/Scary/Hardcore games and movies.Like Prototype,The Blair Witch Project,F.E.A.R,Child's Play,etc.
Do I have hemophobia? If not, what is it? Okay. I AM NOT scared of seeing my own blood, I'm perfectly content with it. Just like a person without hemophobia. However, fake blood IN MOVIES freak me out. Not just a normal freak out, whenever I see blood on tv, I can feel my heart rate drop and my pulse begins to pump louder, a sweat breaks out,and I feel like I'm going to faint. I don't think this is normal. For example, the Evil Dead video game seems pretty fun and the gore doesn't bother me the least bit, but reading the parental guide on imdb ( yeah it's that bad) the gore content in the movie drives me insane just thinking of watching it. One day, I accidentally watched the UNRATED version of drag me to hell, and the nose bleed scene literally made me faint. I have the SAW video game on my PC, but I have never, and have no intent on watching *any* of the SAW movies. I don't know why, but it has recently been brought to my attention that the video games i play have five times the amount of blood than in your average slasher, and I don't cringe once, mostly ignoring the gore! What do I have, and is there any easy way to cope with it? This really sucks, because I have to think of some lame excuse to skip out on a really good horror movie with my friends. I was hanging out with my girlfriend, and *I* covered my eyes on the EDITED version of final destination 3 with fear of any sneak bloody scenes.!

Whats Robert Pattinsons deal? I read this Early life Pattinson was born in the new york city sewers. His mother, Clare, worked for a high class hobo agency, and his father, Richard, imported vintage manskirts from the U.S. For his dear son.[8] Pattinson attended Man skirt Adacmey School and Balls Round 2 academy. .[9] He became involved in amateur theatre group which cpntinued with his gay work. After some backstage experience there, he took on acting roles. He caught the attention of an role hobo with a spare amount of cheese in hand and out it iin his hair which is now the most annoying style we know this how hair came to me. Robert began looking for professional roles. Since then he has performed in an amateur version of Macbeth at the 122,678,905,764,893… Amateur Arts Centre, as well as trying his hand modeling.[citation needed] Pattinson has two elder sisters.[10] Career Modeling Pattinson began his modeling career when he was twelve years old, but it wound down only four years later because he was so ugly the cameras all cracked. He has blamed his lack of boobs and booty appearance. Pattinson explained in December 2008, "When I first started I was quite tall and looked like a girl, so I got lots of jobs, because it was during that period where the androgynous look was cool. Then, I guess, I became too much of a guy, so I never got any more jobs. I had the most unsuccessful modeling career. Which killed my dream of becoming the next Britiny Spears." [11] Pattinson appeared in the advertising campaign for Hackett's Autumn 2007 collection wearing his favorite pink and fluffy man skirt. .[12] Acting Pattinson had supporting roles in the made for television film Ring of the Nibelungs in 2004 and in director Mira Nair’s Vanity Fair, although his scenes in the latter were deleted and only appear on the DVD version that is only sold in gay men stores.[citation needed] In May 2005, he was slated to appear in the UK premiere of The Woman Before at the Royal Court Theatre, but was fired shortly before the opening night and was replaced by Tom Riley.[citation needed] Later that year he played Cedric Diggory in the film Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. It was a disgrace to all harry Potter Fans. Consequently, he was named that year's Gayest and Freaky Stalker by The Times.[13] He also has more than once been touted as the next Jude Law.[9][14][15]He Spent most days in feeble position. Pattinson played Edward Cullen in the infamous movie Twilight, based on Stephenie Meyer's 2 year old novel of the same name, which was released on 21 November 2008 in North America. According to TV Guide, Pattinson was initially apprehensive about auditioning for the role of Edward Cullen, fearful that he wouldn't be able to live up to the "gayness and stalker likeness" expected from the character.[16] Unfortunately, He will reprise his role as Edward Cullen in the Twilight sequel, New Moon, which began filming in March 2009.[17] Afyterward she auditoned for Bella Swan, but he was too ugly, his greasey cheesey ridiculously abnociosly. He also will perform in Little Women, he of course shall play Beth.[19] Music Pattinson plays guitar and piano, and composes his own music, he names each piece after a spieces of kitty cats and is inspired by the works of Spears.[20] He also appears as the singer of the two songs on the Twilight soundtrack: "I’ll be a 89 Year old Virgin", which he co-wrote with Sam Bradley,[21] and "I Smell You, Girl", which was written by Marcus Foster and Bobby Long.[22] The songs were included in the film after director Catherine Hardwicke. [4]Afterwards these albums became respondsible for the increase in deaf rate in the New York area. The soundtrack for the film How To Be features three original songs performed by Pattinson[23] and written by Robert himself. The next day it was realesed it was reported that ten stores selling How to be were burned to the ground and danced upon by young children![24] Aside from recording for the soundtracks, Pattinson has said, "I've never really recorded anything - I just played in pubs and stuff", and when asked about a professional music career, he said, "Music is my back-up plan if acting fails."[4] Later that evening it was reported he had aheart attack imaging his future. In 2008, he also performed with the first girl he stalked’s current boyfriend's band, called Bad Girls. To this we say thank god. And please don’t give him a recording contract or we won’t make it to 2012.[25] Personal life Pattinson has admitted to taking a quarter of a Valium, pot, cocaine and sex with Miley Cyrus to calm his nerves before auditioning for Twilight.[26] He was named one of the "Sexiest Women Alive" in 2008 by People magazine [27] and in 2009 through a poll conducted by Glamour magazine.[28] On having a girlfriend, Pattinson states, "I don't [...] have people's phone numbers. I just like the phone numbers and watching and smelling the new girls."[29] Pattinson currently resides in Los Angeles.
What does a noob need to know in order to start using MySQL and phpMyAdmin? I'm trying to put a database together, one containing all the movies me and my friends have seen, so that we can search them by name, release date, aspect ratio, etc.. I don't know jack about server-side scripting, and I'm totally lost. I have a domain registered and hosted. I'm using MySQL and phpMyAdmin. The book I have is telling me to download Apache, MySQL, and PHP onto my computer, but isn't all that already installed on my server? Isn't that why I'm using MySQL and phpMyAdmin on Hostmonster? Anyway, I've started making a table using phpMyAdmin. I have named 31 fields so far, but I'm not sure what "type" I should assign to each one. Is there a quick reference guide somewhere? I haven't found one yet. For instance, I'd like to have a drop-down list like I used in Access so my friends could select from a list of rating options. What "type" do I select for that? The books I have are all telling me to download Apache and so forth, so I'm thinking they're trying to teach me something I don't need to know. Or do I? I'm willing to put in however much time is necessary (I have plenty on my hands), but I want to be sure I'm learning something relevant to my goals. Thanks a lot in advance. @Julian: Awesome. Like I said, I was trying to do some of those intro tutorials and they kept telling me to download Apache, so I gave up. I'll go back, now that I know a bit more about what I'm looking for.
Help me rate my love letter please? Looking for any tips and advice thanks. Becca, First and foremost I cannot thank you enough for what it has been like just getting to know you. You are the most exceptional person I have ever met (lol I really mean that), even more than friends and family I have known for years. I needed to write this because I don’t know how to put this in words so I needed to write a letter expressing how I really feel. As you already know I’m not a big flirt, don’t try and get with girls, and I am very proud about that. Since God has shown me, and guided me through life I have come to believe everything happens for a reason, and yes everything. He is so sovereign He is able to guide us and place certain people in our lives when the time is right. I do believe God could have had us meet whenever, but the fact we met after you broke up, and how much we have in common means something. It takes a lot for me to even begin to think whether or not I like a girl or not, and after the first time we met I was sold. Your not just prettier than Jessica Alba, it’s the way you come about life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness (lol yes I used it from a movie) that no other girl dreams of. The fact is Becca I like you, wait no I adore you. I haven’t felt this way about someone, ever. I have never been so convicted to finally meet someone who not only has the same views, and ideas, but a very similar past that is rare. That’s why I think God is having us meet for a reason. You deserve to be with someone who knows how what its like to feel pain, knows what its like to have a divorced family, or have your faith tested. The first day we met and I dropped you off back at home, as I was driving away I began to feel like my other half was missing, and anything I could ever share with anyone was gone… That’s when I realized that I had not only met someone special, but someone who I was suppost to meet in my life. I sometimes think that I just met someone who is not suppose to exist, and if she did, it would be like an angel falling from heaven into someone’s life, and I think that’s what you are. Someone like you breathes hope into people who look or feel discouraged with there life. No one I have met has that.. I have only had one girlfriend for 2 years, and I know what it feels like to be treated badly, taken advantage of, and even left behind. You’re the only person I can relate practicality everything with, but still grow with a relationship. Like you said, you don’t wanna date someone you know nothing about, and get surprised by something they do, but you also don’t wanna date someone you know everything about to the point where it feels blatantly awkward. Anyway since I was cheated on I never thought I would ever meet anyone again. I thought that my goals for a relationship were set too high. Until I met someone like you, someone who knew how to make me smile again.. Forever Yours, Robbie

I don't understand this...? On the guide on my TV, the sports channels are green, the movies are purple, the kids shows are light blue every other show is dark blue. And there are these 2 shows on the same network and one os light blue and one is dark blue. But the light blue one is rated PG and the dark blue one is rated G. And plus the one rated G is slightly less appropriate for kids. Why is it like this?? No I have cogeco digital cable. But they are probably very similar

SO please dont flame me or do anything gay like that so heres the link to my channel. if you like the vids, feel free to rate and comment or even subscribe if you really like them. so here it is: http://www.youtube.com/user/bcarl10101 thanks guys (and girls) ok so thanks guys. so the funny videos are good, thats really good to know. now i will definately make more. and, i just made an account called pmbcproductions for me and the kid in the skateboard vid to share because we always make vids together and I thought that this could be for our funny videos.

Did the 21st century mark an end of an era for the Entertainment Industry? notice how since 2000, all you see is reality. most channels, have become second rate, and air shows, that dont even deserve to have mentioning in a tv guide. has the industry come to a point, that anything is "music" now, and nothing but remakes, for movies, and nothing but reality television, and few good shows to watch??? the few channels that dont have reality, have some lame tv shows, trying but failing, to live up to the good stuff in the past. did the 21st century, beginning, mark an end of an era, for the entertainment industry?

How do they determine the rating (number of stars) on a movie on a cable program guide? I've seen really good movies rated with one or two stars, while other pathetic movies rated with three or four stars. I know it's a matter of taste, which is subjective, but many of the "star" ratings do not reflect the collective ratings of sites like IMDB's top 250. I tried to jfgi, but it has led down too many dead-ends.

40 ways men fail in bed.. [[a little long, but very funny .. lol]]? Men - this is a free instruction guide for all of you who never get invite back after the first time and think it's because of your body odour; of course for some of you that could be true as well.....40 ways Men Fail in BED 1) NOT KISSING FIRST. Avoiding her lips and diving straight for the erogenous zones makes her feel like you're paying by the hour & trying to get your money's worth by cutting out non-essentials. A proper passionate kiss is the ultimate form of foreplay. 2) BLOWING TOO HARD IN HER EAR. Well, there's a difference between being erotic and blowing as if you're trying to extinguish the candles on your birthday cake! 3) NOT SHAVING. Guys often forget they have a porcupine strapped to their chins, which they rake repeatedly across their partner's face and thighs. So when she turns her head from side to side, it's not passion it's avoidance! 4) SQUEEZING HER BREAST. Most men act like a housewife testing melons for ripeness when they get their hands on a pair. Stroke, caress, and smooth them. 5) BITING HER NIPPLES. Why do men fasten onto a woman's nipples, then clamp down like they're trying to deflate her body via her breasts? Nipples are highly sensitive & they can't stand up to chewing. Lick and suck them gently. Flicking your tongue across them is good. Pretending they're a doggie toy isn't. 6) TWIDDLING HER NIPPLES. Stop doing that thing where you twiddle the nipples between finger and thumb like you're trying to find a radio station in a hilly area. Focus on the whole breasts, not just the exclamation points. 7) IGNORING THE OTHER PARTS OF HER BODY. A woman is not a highway with just three turnoffs: Breastville East and West, and the Midtown Tunnel. There are vast areas of her body, which you've ignored far too often as you go bombing straight into downtown Vagina. So start paying them some attention! 8) GETTING THE HAND TRAPPED. Poor manual dexterity in the underskirt region can result in tangled fingers and underpants. If you're going to be that aggressive, just ask her to take the damn things off. 9) LEAVING HER A LITTLE PRESENT. Condom disposal is the man's responsibility. You wore it, you store it. 10) ATTACKING THE CLITORIS. Direct pressure is very unpleasant, so gently rotate your fingers along side of the clitoris. 11) STOPPING FOR A BREAK. Women, unlike men, don't pick up where they left off. If you stop, they plummet back to square one very fast. If you can tell she's not there, keep going at all costs, numb jaw or not. 12) UNDRESSING HER AWKWARDLY. Women hate looking stupid, but stupid she will look when naked at the waist with a sweater stuck over her head. Unwrap her like an elegant present, not a kid's toy. 13) GIVING HER A WEDGIE DURING FOREPLAY. Stroking her gently through her panties can be very sexy. Pulling the material up between her thighs and yanking it back and forth is not. 14) BEING OBSESSED WITH THE VAGINA. Although most men can find the clitoris without maps, they still believe that the vagina is where it's all at. No sooner is your hand down there than you're trying to stuff stolen banknotes up a chimney, which is OK in principle, but if you're not careful, it can hurt - so don't get carried away. Better to pay more attention to her clitoris and the exterior of her vagina at first, then gently slip a finger inside her and see if she likes it. 15) MASSAGING TOO ROUGHLY. You're attempting to give her a sensual, relaxing massage to get her in the mood. Hands and fingertips are okay; elbows and knees are not. 16) UNDRESSING PREMATURELY. Don't force the issue by stripping before she's at least made some move toward getting your stuff off, even if it's just undoing a couple of buttons. 17) TAKING YOUR PANTS OFF FIRST. A man in socks and underpants is a at his worst. Lose the socks first. 18) GOING TOO FAST. When you get to the penis-in-vagina situation, the worst thing you can do is pump away like an industrial power tool she'll soon feel like an assembly-line worker made obsolete by your technology. Build up slowly, with clean, straight, regular thrusts. 19) GOING TOO HARD. If you bash your great triangular hip bones into herthigh or stomach, the pain is equal to two weeks of horseback ridingconcentrated into a few seconds. 20) COMING TOO SOON. Every man's fear (with reason). If you shoot before you see the whites of her eyes, make sure you have a backup plan to ensure her pleasure too. 21) NOT COMING SOON ENOUGH. You may think that humping for an hour without climaxing is the mark of a sexual weight-lifter , but to her it's more likely the mark of a numb vagina. At least buy some intriguing wall hangings so she has something to hold her interest while you're playing Marathon Man. 22) ASKING IF SHE HAS COME. You really ought to be able to tell. Most women make noise. But if you really don't know, don't ask. 23) PERFORMING ORAL SEX TOO GENTLY. Don't act like a giant cat at saucer of milk. Get your whole mouth down there, and concentrate on gently rotating or flicking your tongue on her clitoris. 24) NUDGING HER HEAD DOWN. Men persist in doing this until she's eyeball-to-penis, hoping that it will lead very swiftly to mouth-to-penis. All women hate this. It's about three steps from being dragged to a cave by their hair. If you want her to use her mouth, use yours; try talking seductively to her. 25) NOT WARNING HER BEFORE YOU CLIMAX. Sperm tastes like seawater mixed with egg white. Not everybody likes it. When she's performing oral sex, warn her before you come so she can do what's necessary. 26) MOVING AROUND DURING FELLATIO. Don't thrust. She'll do all the moving during fellatio. You just lie there and don't grab her head. 27) TAKING ETIQUETTE ADVICE FROM PORN MOVIES. In X-rated movies, women seem to love it when men ejaculate over them. In real life, it just means more laundry to do. 28) MAKING HER RIDE ON TOP FOR AGES. Asking her to be on top is fine. Lying there grunting while she does all the hard work is not.Caress her gently, so that she doesn't feel quite so much like the captain of a schooner. And let her have a rest. 29) ATTEMPTING ANAL SEX AND PRETENDING IT WAS AN ACCIDENT. This is how men earn a reputation for not being able to follow directions. If you want to put it there, ask her first. And don't think that being drunk is an excuse. 30) TAKING PICTURES. When a man says, "Can I take a photo of you?" she'll hear the words "__to show my buddies." At least let her have custody of them. 31) NOT BEING IMAGINATIVE ENOUGH. Imagination is anything from drawing patterns on her back to pouring honey on her and licking it off. Fruit, vegetables, ice and feathers are all handy props; hot candle wax and permanent dye are a no no. 32) SLAPPING YOUR STOMACH AGAINST HERS. There is no less erotic noise. It's as sexy as a belching contest. 33) ARRANGING HER IN STUPID POSES. If she wants to do advanced yoga in bed, fine, but unless she's a Romanian gymnast, don't get too ambitious. Ask yourself if you want a sexual partner with snapped hamstrings. 34) LOOKING FOR HER PROSTATE. Read this carefully: Anal stimulation feels good for men because they have a prostate. Women don't. 35) GIVING LOVE BITES. It is highly erotic to exert some gentle suction on the sides of the neck, if you do it carefully. No woman wants t have to wear turtlenecks and jaunty scarves for weeks on end. 36) BARKING INSTRUCTIONS. Don't shout encouragement like a coach with a megaphone. It's not a big turn-on. 37) TALKING DIRTY. It makes you sound like a lonely magazine editor calling a 1-900 line. If she likes nasty talk, she'll let you know. 38) NOT CARING WHETHER SHE COMES. You have to finish the job. Keep on trying until you get it right, and she might even do the same for you. 39) SQUASHING HER. Men generally weigh more than women, so if you lie on her a bit too heavily, she will turn blue. 40) THANKING HER. Never thank a woman for having sex with you. Your bedroom is not a soup kitchen.
can someone please proofread my essay and give me tips on how to make it better? What is found in Video Games Have you ever encountered dead bodies lying on the sidewalk in front of your house? That is a gruesome image, but that same picture is found in video games. Eugene F. Provenzo is a professor of education at the University of Miami and the author of Children and Hyper-Reality. (1).

By the age of 12, the average child has been exposed to a massive amount of gang violence, sexism, and drug abuse due to video games; therefore, video games should be censored. According to Jack Thompson, in the game Grand Theft Auto (GTA), "Lynch's favorite way to kill in the game was to beat victims with a baseball bat because you get more points for killing at close range"(2). Also, gang violence is exposed in this game Grand Theft Auto (GTA), which involves stealing cars from different individuals, another devastating crime. Thompson goes on to say that Lynch is called "zombified" while he is playing this obsessive game. (2). On September 24, 2003, an incident involving a 15 year old boy, who shot two of his classmates, killing one and critically wounding another. According to his neighbors with whom Jack have spoken to, the 15-year old played Grand Theft Auto Vice City constantly. A recent Gallup Poll found that 71 percent of all teen-age boys have played the Grand Theft Auto (GTA) games, and Gallup found that they are twice as likely to engage in acts of violence as those who have not played that game. The Entertainment Software Association rating board has rated Grand Theft Auto San Andreas on the PlayStation 2 system as Mature or “M”, which has content that is intended for people aged 17 and older, and may contain sexual themes and intense violence or language. As recognize, younger males under the age of 17 are getting a hold of rated “M”, games and are looking for a intensive battle. According to Grossman, he indicates, “Now, 16 million kids supposedly have access to guns.” There was another case involving, “a 14 year old who had never fired a gun before in his life takes a .22 caliber pistol to school and fires eight shots. He got eight hits on eight different children; five of them head shots, the other three upper torso. He had played those video games over and over again and had become a master killer.” Games like (GTA), 007, and Halo have influenced school deadly massacres two examples are the, “Columbine” and “Virginia Tech.” The idea about sexism in video games is very disturbing which has led young males to grow up being abusive towards their female companion. Video games might often lead a male to face jail time, which is nothing pleasant. In Grand Theft Auto games most females dress with skimpy clothes and are referred as “hoes.” With certain codes in the game (GTA) you either can undress females or receive sexual favors. When we look at (GTA), the man with the flowered shirt goes on a rampage killing spree, and there are scenes of strip clubs that are shown. Teens should not be able to visualize certain material such as pornography. Teens come across with video games that involve with a great deal of killing, fighting, and special abilities, which is all performed by a male. Due to sexism in video games, Grossman indicates that, “Now in these mass murders we have seen, usually the child is out to kill their girlfriend. Very often, the first victim…has been a girlfriend.” It is usually found that in video games such as Mortal Kombat, Street Fighter, etc. the male characters have greater power while the female characters prove to be weaker. Sexism is a really delicate subject that is worth the time to speak about, for example, whether it is princess or an innocent female by standard. The violence is often brutal and degrading to women. In the game "Duke Nukem," for instance, a player can enter a room with naked women saying "Kill me," while tied to posts. In the Grand Theft Auto (GTA) series, one of the most popular and also most violent and controversial of the games, a player is rewarded if he has sex with a prostitute. "Parents perceive age ratings as a guide but not as a definite prohibition," said Freund. "Some may have not liked the content but they did not prohibit the game." "Most parents think their child is mature enough so that these games will not influence them," said Jurgen Freund, chief executive with the Swiss research firm Modulum. According to Freund, “While the debate is likely to continue on a large scale in years to come (California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger recently signed into law Assembly Bill 1179, which prohibits selling or renting violent video games to Californians under 18), one thing's for sure is that kids will continue to be drawn to these types of games, if for no other reason than because they're not supposed to have them. "We called it Magic 18," said Freund. "The 18+ label was seen as promoting the content, promising adult content rather than saying 'my parents will stop me playing this." These games are almost like an over the counter drug, whether it is cough medicine or Tylenol.

Write a Review Reviews Voted Most Helpful Votes are counted and displayed within 24 hours HM 1355196 37% Similar To You HM 1355196's other reviews > 5.0 Stars This is an excellent documentary that I think every American should see before they vote again. This is not a movie about Bush vs. Kerry or Republicans vs. Democrats. Its about our current voting system and exposing a multitude of problems with that system as demonstrated in the 2004 election. We are told "EVERY VOTE COUNTS" and this documentary exposes the corruption, mistruths, and shameful negligence and mishandling of these "VOTES" in a way that cannot be denied nor ignored - unless you don't watch it for yourself. 73 out of 78 people found this review helpful.

The answer is yes, yes, yes!!! Kudos to Bev Harris who has dedicated years to exposing the corruption surrounding electronic voting. Get this. After Hacking Democracy's premiere on HBO, Harris received death threats. That's how risky and powerful her work is. 67 out of 77 people found this review helpful.

This wonderful documentary proves my point that we have the best democracy that money can buy, along with our judicial system. This film is more frightening than any horror film I've seen, because THIS IS REAL! And this is movie biased? Not at all. It's an absolute eye opener that shows that your vote really doesn't count; and make sure you watch the deleted scenes(another 33 minutes of fantastic footage). 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Member Reviews hawk5391 58% Similar To You hawk5391's other reviews > 5.0 Stars Even though I also watched the original slasher classic Black Christmas, this was the scariest movie I saw over the Christmas break. Although the filmmakers obviously have every reason to sensationalize potential problems with electronic voting systems ("good news is no news," right?), the implications here are frightening. Not only did Bev Harris (founder of a non-partisan watchdog group) find voting machine code unprotected on the internet, she was able to successfully hack it and prove that results could be manipulated (you can watch this being done in a matter of seconds in this film). The lack of oversight of the companies who control the majority of electronic voting is astounding, almost as bad as the sloppy manner in which our government oversees the elections themselves. 10 out of 10 people found this review helpful.

I found this review Click to rate this review as helpful LR 572736 43% Similar To You LR 572736's other reviews > 5.0 Stars Politics in America is scarey enough, but when you see what is going on with our elections system, you will just go through the roof. We have hoped through the last few centuries that a government of the people, by the people and for the people would not parish from the face of the earth, and that America would be its shining example. After viewing this flick, you will realize just how tarnished our example has become. We have realized in the past decades, that money rules, and it just feels like our votes don't count, only the money that backs our politicians. Only the corporations and special interests have access to the politicians these days, not the people that vote. This picture goes a long way to explaining how that happens. After realizing the truths in this documentary, I feel even more helpless and useless to change a corrupt government by my vote. Did my vote get counted? How would I even know? The facts put forth in this program are just about incredible, but you come away realizing their powerful credibility. I wondered why their hasn't been criminal prosecution of the election fraud that is running rampant in our country today? Where are prosecuters? Why aren't elections officials who ignore our right to have our votes counted, recounter and certified being placed on trial for crimes against the electorate? You owe it to yourself and your country to see this documentary long before the next election. Don't miss this one! 8 out of 9 people found this review helpful.

This is the story of the creation of the group and webpage BlackBoxVoting.com Having found the Diebold's source code, a code that not even the President of the United States can see, Bev Harris takes the code to an expert. What is revealed causes Harris to criss cross America, to prove the fact that Diebold had literally hijacked democracy. Although it's possible, it's difficult to believe that anyone can think that the 2004 Presidential Election wasn't rigged after viewing this film. A 'must see' for every American. 4 out of 4 people found this review helpful.

I found this review Click to rate this review as helpful Ben5765 35% Similar To You Ben5765's other reviews > 4.0 Stars This film is all about voting machines and how votes are tabulated. It makes mincemeat of the Diebold Corporation, manufacturer of a large percentage of the electronic voting machines used in the United States. It reveals Diebold officials making lie after lie about the security of their machines. The makers of the film meticulously document how, using Diebold's machines and data cards, someone with just a basic understanding of the technology involved (including, certainly, any Diebold employee) could rig the vote count, on one machine or on thousands of them, with absolutely no record that the rigging was ever done. The film also reveals how Diebold's chief executive officer was (and maybe still is) a large contributor to the Republican Party. He once wrote a letter stating that he would "deliver" Ohio's electoral votes in the 2004 presidential election for George W. Bush. The film later shows how his company managed to persuade Cuyahoga County, Ohio (where Cleveland is) to buy its machines. Maybe there is nothing fishy going on there, but appearances matter! Lest the film be seen as partisan, it features, among others, a Republican office-seeker from Louisiana who, after losing her race, went to view a demonstration of the machines that the voters used. As part of the demonstration she pressed the button next to her name, and the machine registered a vote for her opponent. Hmmm. She was understandably troubled. Moreover, the film points out that in many parts of the country it is in fact the local Republican Party that is wary of electronic voting machines, not the Democrats. Hacking Democracy also reveals problems with punch card voting systems--problems that dwarf the famous "hanging chad" problem of the 2000 presidential vote count in Florida. The film's message is distressing, but it is one all American citizens should hear and see. 5 out of 5 people found this review helpful.

It is because their kind of ignorance that this movie is a 5 star and a must for every single human being to watch and learn. There is no excuse for any voting system to be too technical, too complex, too secret that we cannot prove what the votes were years from when the votes were taken. Not even 50 years, not even 100 years, not even 1000 years, not ever. For anyone to suggest that the electronic voting system is not possible to understand and to do a documentary for by a handful of heroic citizens, it is an insult to this country and democracy. Let these be the commandments of election: 1) No voting methods should be more complicated than what pen/pencil can do on a ballot. 2) Vote handling in any election process should be transparent to the public no matter when, why, how, what, who. 3) Only 100% accuracy should be accepted. Anything less then 100% should be recounted no matter how many times, how long it takes, and how much it cost to be 100% accurate. 4) Without 100% accuracy, election cannot be concluded. Another election should be conducted immediately without further delay. 3 out of 3 people found this review helpful.

Since some of you were asking about where the monsters were, this section will give directions on how to get there. 1-2 Monster areas You're guide to where the monsters are, and what they look like. Aibatts-Go straight out of the gate where the Flaris Lodestar is, and go to your right, you'll see blue flying monsters with 1 eye, that's an aibatt. Mushpang and Burudengs- The mushpangs and burudengs are to the right of aibatts. Mushpangs look like Walking mushrooms, they walk around on their strong arms. Burugengs look like large blue beetles, you can notice their wings, and they are to the right of mushpangs. Pukepukes- At burudengs, go north, you'll see mini scarecrows with daggers, they wear straw hats. So just go northwest a little, and you'll see them. Demians- At burudengs, go north a little, then turn east, you'll see a small bridge, cross it, and you'll be at demians. They look like little Chuckies(from the movie "Childs Play." Lawolfs- At burudengs, go north, and keep going until you see anothe rthing that looks liek the flaris Lodestar, this is the flaris lodelight. Go to the little penguin up there, and set your spawning point there, so when you die, you don't have to walk so far. Then turn around to the west, you'll see some wolves, those are lawolfs. Feferns - At the flaris lodeLIGHT(the one with the penguin), turn north, and you'll see a large bridge. Go across it, go west, and you'll see little walking flowers, these are feferns. NyangNyangs- As soon as you go across that bridge where the feferns are, cross the bridge, go straight, and you'll see little human-monkey-cat-like creatures, these are NyangNyangs. Bangs- When you go across the bridge, go to NyangNyangs, then go east, keep going until you see giant Blue or Brown Ogre like things. These are Bangs. Now you're ready to go to Saintmorning, you'll need a Blinkwing, this is a little teleporter. So just go back to town, find the magic shop, buy a "Blinkwing to Saint Morning", open your inventory, and double click it, don't move until you see a different background, or the teleportign will stop. Wagsaacs- At Saintmorning, find the huge building that looks like a church, there are a lot of shops around it. Face it, go to the right of it, then face forward, you'll see the Pvp arena, walk around it, and you'll see a dirt road, follow that, you'll see little purple buds walking around on the left side, those are wagsaacs, DON'T go there just yet. Keep folowing the dirt road until you find another dirt road going to the right, go there, and make a left, you'll see the Saint Lodelight, ocne again, go to the penguin, talk to him, set the place as you're spawning point for when you die, then go abck to wagsaacs. Mias- Go back on the dirt road, go forward a little bit more, you'll see little girls attached to chains with a ball at the end of it walking around, the mias will be coloured blue-ish, they are next to a small lake. Mr Pumpkins- Right near the Saint Lodelight, you'll see a bridge, go across it, you'll see people walkign around with pumpkins on their heads, those are Mr Pumpkins. Red Mantis- Go through the Mr. Pumpkin town, you'll see giant scorpion looking things, these are Red Mantis. Jack the hammers- AT red mantis, make a left, keep going until you see mean looking dwarves with huge hammers with spikes. EXTENDED: Rock Muscles- Just follow the regular dirt road on your board or broom, since you should be lvl 20 by now. Keep following it until you get to a desert. This place is called "The Fantasy Desert" home to the Ivlis Dungeon. As soon as you arrive, you'll see Rock Golem looking things, they hunch forward a little, these are rock muscles. Keep going right of them til you see red ones, those are the ones you train on. Dumbbulls- At the dirt road path, go into the fantasy desert, then make a left, you'll see weird looking creatures called Burcrows, ignore them and keep going, keep following the desert, and then you'll start seeing giant blue bulls, these are small dumb bulls, just keep going, you don;t want them, keep going until you see brown dumb bulls, these are the regular ones, and the ones you want. They'll be right next to a hill leading to Captain Dumb Bulls, you dont want them either. Totemias- See that hill at dumb bulls where the captain dumb bulls are? Go up that til you see an opening to your left, go in that and keep going til you see bouncing totem polls. These are small totemias, for captain totemias, go across that small lake. Cardpuppets- These are robot lady looking things, they are dressed like maids and are to the left of small totemias, for bigger cardpuppets, go across that mall lake to the captain totemias and then go left, then go up that hill to Manager Cardpuppets. IMPORTANT!!! Okay, this part, where you go to the Garden of Rhisis, there isn't a Blinkwing to get there, you need to fly. In Saint Morning town, go to the Big Church building known as Saint Hall, Face away from it towards the Lodestar. Then face to the right of that, get on your board/broom, and fly up and across the sea of clouds, you'll eventually come to a big Island, known as the Garden of Rhisis. Fly a little lower, you'll see Scopions, ignore them and go left, you'll see giant ogres with beards carrieing giant Tombstones on their backs. Keep going left for Captain Tombstonebearers. Basques- Alright, at tombstonebearers, go straight east, youll see a couple tunnels with cogs on the top of them, go through either one, it doesn't matter, keep going through them until you see Blue amphibians carrieng guns, these are Basques. Pranksters- Go east of Tombstone bearers, pass the scorpions, go across that cliff, and then you'll see monsters that look like Violet Magician Troupe Members. Those are pranksters. IMPORTANT!!! Okay, now that you're goin to darkon, you're gunna needa train on Leyenas. Go back to Saint Morning, buy a blinkwing to Darkon at the magic shop, and wait til you're there. You'll also need a spawning point for when you die. See the sign on your world map that says Darkon 2(Khip Ra)"? The Darkon Lodelight is right under the 'r' in "Darkon." Talk to the penguin and set your spawning point there, now go back to town. Leyenas- Once you're there, get on your board/broom, open up your map, and you're gunna do a little somehting called map stearing to get to Leyenas. Look and find that sign that says Darken, thats where you are. Now look for the sing that says Gouthan Mountains, right under that is a mountain formation on the map that looks like a V, go behind that on your board, and drop down, you'll see some brown wolves, those are leyenas. If you're ahving trouble with this, ask some one to help you get there. Steamwalkers- Go to small leyenas, keep going up that hill, you'll see giant robots controlled by a little man, those are steam walkers. Nuttywheels Fly down that hill of Steamwalkers, keep going, until you see a big cliff, fly over it. You'll arrive at a mini factory looking place. Go down and you'll see giant wheels with arms, they roll around like a wheelchair. Those are Nuttywheels. Elderguards- Go back to the Darkon lodelight, face west, fly over that cliff. You'll fly over Cranes and Garbagepiders, then once you reach the large ditch, you'll see it from in the air, turn right, go down, and you'll see elderguards. Garbagepiders - Go back to the darkon lodelight, face west, fly over the cliff, then immediatly go down, you'll pass by cranes, keep going forward until you see Giant trashcans attached to spider like robots. Those are Garbagepiders. 1-3 Job Classes Job classes. Mercenary, 2nd jobs, Blade and knight. Mercenaries specialize in all swords and axes. They run on dex and str. Some people like adding sta too. The knight will use two handed swords/axes, the blade will use 2 1 handed swords or axes.(TIP: With blades, try going til 90 with swords, then switch to axes for a great crit rate ^^) Magician, second jobs, Elementor, and Psykeeper. Mages specialize in wands and staffs. Elementors use staffs, mages use wands. Mages can usually kill 10+ above their lvl monsters. Assist, second jobs, Ringmaster, and Billposter.

Acrobats specialize in YoYos and Bows. Rangers will use bows and arrows to kill monsters. Jesters will use yoyos to kill monsters. Some people like to be complete idiots and be Bow Jesters.(BJs) 1-4 Mixed Class information Mixed class information Look, you idiots, mixing classes like BJs, and BRMs, is completely stupid and goes completely against the game. Sure it might seem fun for the first while, but then you end up nto playing the damn thing anymore and look, a week wasted on a character that youll never play again. How sad? Do you want my sympothy? My pity? HELL NO! Its your fault, dont mix your god damn classes. Keep it the way its supposed to be. If I find anyone who is a mixed class and used my guide, I will challenge you to a god damn duel and kick your asses over and over for it. 1-5 Money making/savings guide Short money making/savings guide guide. The guide of guides for guiding guides. (did you forget what guide meant for a second?) One way is to sell gpots 4mil per 100, 90mil per restat or reskill, 100mil per pet. Simple, quick, and easy right? WRONG! People will tell you that spros are 2.5mil for example, well, thats bull. Its worth at least 4mil, dont let noobs screw you over with crap like that. Money savings is much simpler. Say you see an alext suit+5 fpr... iunno 60mil. You can make your own for only 50mil and under. Buy yourself a CLEAN alext suit, still with me? Now, buy yourself 6 sunstones and 6 spros. Now your up to about.......... 36mil? About that....so, start upgrading. It might only make it to +4, But hey, you just pnly spen 36mil, nowget yourself another spro and another sunstone, your at 39-42mil. Upgrade again, and viola, you saved a bunch of money and DIDNT get screwed over. This little method applies for all items, item sets, and weapons. For flyff only
What do u think of my book's first chapter? It is a bit short, but i just want to know if it is any good. PLEASE read it! It would mean a lot. The book is supposed to be about two sisters, Hailey and Emma. They are going to spend their summer together, by the sea side before Emma leaves for college. Here, Hailey falls deeply in love with Nicholas, only to find out in the end that he is leaving to England, as well. So she finds herself torn between the loss of both her sister and the love of her life. And the first chapter: 3…2…1… - Hailey! Hailey! Wait up! And… here we go again. Beth. Chasing me down the school hallway for who knows what she needed this time. Beth. My worst enemy. Except that I couldn’t just ignore her or snap an ending line right in front of her face, like they do in these teen movies. Why? Because she was my mother’s best friend’s daughter. Ever since I was old enough to obey her commands she assigned me as her “personal assistant” . I flinched at the sound of her Prada heels cracking on the concrete. - What now, Beth? I’m seriously not in mood for you today! Besides don’t you have some art project you were supposed to finish? - Well, that’s exactly what I want to talk to you about. You know how I absolutely LOVE the way you draw. So I was thinking… - Ugh! This is it! I’m not Cinderella, ok? And I’m not gonna let you ruin my life with your little problems! I don’t like you, and you don’t like me so please, leave me alone once and for all! Hmm… I didn’t know what was it with me that day. I never came out like that. I’ve always been the relaxed, shy girl, that never got in any kind of trouble. And I guess the whole school figured that out. Before I could say another word, everyone was gathered around us as if they were waiting for us to start a fight. I took a deep breath and... slowly walked away, trying to ignore the mocking whistles behind me. It was three days before my final exams, and this was not going to ruin it for me. The rest of the day passed in quite a rush. The final days were so busy, that everyone was hurrying to get to class, library or to check their notes one last time. When I got home I found my sister waiting in front of the house, resting on the stairs. She seemed amused. Distressed. Which is so not her. From how I know Emma – and I know her to the core – she would be screaming or crying , totally stressed, complaining about how much work she has to get done. Especially since she was applying for college. But not today. I looked at her puzzled. - What’s wrong, Em? You look happy, I teased. - Ha! Unbelievable! Can’t I just be in a good mood, without you being suspicious that there’s something wrong? She snapped - Whoah! Slow down! I’m just making fun of you. So , why don’t you tell me what’s the reason of your , what’s the word? Overly striking joyfulness? She tried to look casual, but I could see a crooked smile slipping down the corner of her mouth, like a 5 year old child’s, that was trying to hide a stolen candy from his mother. - Ok, ok. If you’re sure that you have nothing to tell me… and I flashed my eyelashes at her. - Oh, just get in the house! I’m older, you’re supposed to listen to me. God! What happened to the good old times when you would do what I say? - You’re such a pain! - I love you too! I got into my room laughing. I knew she wouldn’t keep the secret for too long. She was always so eager to tell some good news. I cast myself on the bed and picked up a magazine. The February 2009 issue. The headline: “10 tips on how to make a kiss PERFECT”. It’s funny that anyone should need that. I mean, I’m not an expert or anything – and you don’t want to know about my previous relationships, correction relationship – but shouldn’t it just come to you naturally, without using a picture-attached guide? But then again, why was I surprised? That’s what teen magazines are all about. How to survive through teenage hood. That’s mainly the reason I’m reading them. I find them very amusing, and the best part is watching all those girls hiding in the bathrooms reading the “x rated” articles, hoping they would actually find something useful. And of course, there is always the gossip section which I can’t allow myself to miss. Although I think it’s cruel to follow people around, waiting for them to do something stupid, it is one of the best ways to keep me entertained. I had almost fallen asleep, when I heard a slight knock on the door. - Come in! - What are you doing? - Um… just reading some magazine. Where did your mood go all of a sudden? She threw a quick laugh. - I don’t know, I guess I just got bored. This city is so not interesting! - Huh, I know. So, what do you wanna do? - I don’t know, watch a movie, maybe? - Oh, yeah there’s this new comedy I really wanna see. If on Btw, the book is called " Summer... a dream that lasts forever"
Need help ASAP on a peer review expository essay. Need it today 8/12/2009 before 12:00 please? Here is the peer review essay. Religion holds our society together because society without religion has no boundaries. There is no respect, less accountability and more selfishness among the people. The decline in ethical and moral values in today’s society is a direct result of a declining belief in religion. There is a downward trend of respect in society for standard morals and values which is a direct result of the lack of religious influence among people today. This certain disregard for religion and religious beliefs can be attributed to a shift away from the traditional family structure. Ethical and moral standards are often gained through a religious belief, and these beliefs are taught at home. They are passed down from generation to generation. However, divorce is occurring at an alarming rate and non-traditional families are becoming more prevalent. Take for example the life experiences of those known as Generation X compared to members of the two older generations, Baby Boomers and Pre-Boomers. Forty-five percent of Generation X-era went through some sort of family disruption, such as the divorce or separation of their parents, or they were raised by a single parent. That compares to twenty-seven percent of the Baby Boomers and only twenty-three percent of the Pre-Boomers. A result of this disruption in family dynamics is the low percentage of Generation X-era who said they were not involved in religion while growing up. Surveys show that thirty-five percent of Generation X-era indicated religious involvement while growing up compared with forty-five percent of Baby Boomers and fifty-three percent of Pre-Boomers. This represents a striking decline in involvement among the three generations. Generation X-era evidently felt less pressure or encouragement to participate in religious activities than their parents or grandparents, likely the result of a lack of family dynamics. While religious involvement is not strikingly different between Generation X-era and Baby Boomers, they are very different from Pre-Boomers. Generation X-era and Baby Boomers are more interested in personal autonomy, freedom, and independent thought, and for the most part are not committed to institutional religious involvement, which has generally negative effects on their ethical and moral values. Ultimately, there is dissolution of religion and its teachings. A loss in religion is a loss of personal conscious. Previous generations believed in the teachings of doctrines, articles of faith and ritual practices. They shaped their lives around these teachings, differentiating right from wrong and good from evil. They inspired high moral sacrifice and deeds of courage. They developed compassion and a caring nature for the wellbeing of others. Martin Luther once proclaimed “Here I stand, I cannot do otherwise”. This is an example of the power of conscious to guide one in the right direction. Additionally, religious beliefs evoke a sense of obligation and duty which takes one beyond his or her immediate interests towards an appreciation of and respect for the interests of others. In our own day, Martin Luther King reflected the force of religion to impel moral action when he said, “An individual has not started living until he can rise above the narrow confines of his individualistic concerns to the broader concerns of all humanity”. Today, society has lost its compassion and exhibits a “me” attitude. Now, society joins religious affiliations for their personal interests. What can be gained personally by having religion in one’s life? Personal truth and ethical obligation has been largely replaced by a quest for personal and spiritual fulfillment. Today those who join a religious affiliation and congregation are more interested in how it will enhance their personal life or bring them a greater fulfillment in life. This widespread search for personal fulfillment reveals that people have become much more concerned with themselves and much less concerned with others. They are just interested in how the ambiance of the potential congregation, the music, the vitality of the congregation, the personality of the minister, will meet their personal needs. They are focused solely on what’s in it for them. This has little to do with belief. From a religious standpoint, it seems apparent that much of this moral decline is due to a falling disregard and disrespect for all religions and their teachings. However it is important to discuss briefly other contributory factors which have also played a role including religious, cultural, and political leaders who act as role models. Highly public figures are impressionable on society whether they intend to be or not. The public shaming of ex-presidents such as Richard Nixon and Bill Clinton, the dissolution of marital vows by popular movie stars such as Brad Pitt, and the unimaginable crimes of sports celebrities such as O.J.

Why do so many Christians emphasise that God only sent Christ to die for our sins ? some say he dint come to guide/teach people but only to "save" mankind from the depths of hell. is Christianity all about the death of Jesus ? dont his life and his teachings mean nothing ? And the movie "Passion of the Christ" ? i just dont get it . how is it supposed to "inspire" people ? theres nothing in the movie except a man being brutally tortured non stop ( rated R). no teachings nothing. what the hell ? Your opinions ? And @ Atheists - dont just say its all bs or delusions anyway. give your opinions for why they think that way ? (easier to convert?) etc etc
Do you think you are better? One of the most effective deceptions that Satan has foisted upon Christians is the idea that certain groups are more spiritually mature than less-enlightened believers. The endless game of, “I am more approved in the Lord's eyes than you,” divides the Body of Christ and gives non-believers a negative opinion of the Christian faith. Few people would ever openly say, “I'm a better Christian than you.” It is through their beliefs and deeds that they proclaim their superiority. Listed below are six common ways people use to promote spiritual elitism. 1. Members of the One True Church The trademark of this belief is that a particular group has a stranglehold on the truth and that there is no salvation outside of its organization. The groups hold that leaders are specially anointed by God, are in many cases infallible in interpretation of holy writings and, more importantly, are above reproach. These groups believe in what they feel are superior interpretations of scripture and they are more concerned about the doctrines and traditions of man than the Word of God. Special revelations from God are a trademark of the One True Church. In most cases, the luster of the revelation can be found to have been tarnished by failed prediction. Bible requires 100 percent accuracy rate for all predictions that are claimed to have originated from God. One-true-churchism leads to people questioning their salvation and spending more time worrying about their actions than on studying the Word of God and enriching their personal walk with Him. Mark 7:9: “And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition.” 2. The Keepers of the Law This group of people believes in keeping Torah observance. While I see no problem with people choosing to keep the levitical kosher (dietary) laws or the Sabbath, there is a fine line between personal choice and self-righteousness. These groups maintain that Jesus never intended for the law to go away. They base this belief on Matthew 5:17 and John 14:15, which say, "Think not that I have come to destroy the law," and "If you love me, you will keep my commandments," respectively. What they are missing, however, is that Jesus clarified what He was referring to and it had nothing to do with the 613 laws of Torah. When Jesus was cornered by the Pharisees and asked which of the commandments were the greatest, He replied: Matthew 22:37-40: “Jesus said to him, 'You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.' This is the first and great commandment and the second is like it: 'You shall love your neighbor as yourself.' On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets." What was He referencing? Isaiah 29:13: “Therefore the Lord said, ‘Inasmuch as these people draw near with their mouths And honor Me with their lips, But have removed their hearts far from Me, And their fear toward Me is taught by the commandment of men.’” Jeremiah 31:33: “But this [shall be] the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people.” It is impossible for the Judaic law to save anyone. The standard is too high for anyone to follow the law to perfection. The law said, “Don't do it.” Jesus said, “You’re guilty if you even think about doing something that is wrong.” Paul warned us in Galatians that we can fall from grace by trying to follow after the law. Galatians 2:21: “I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness [come] by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.” Galatians 5:4: “You have become estranged from Christ, you who attempt to be justified by law; you have fallen from grace.” 3. Legalists Scripture tells us that we are to exhort fellow believers (1 Thess. 4:1). So where is the line between assisting a believer in his walk with the Lord and condemning a believer for his every thought and action? Common sense dictates that a believer should not dress wantonly and get drunk, but common sense is not enough for the legalist crowd. That crowd feels a duty to protect people from themselves, so it creates measuring sticks in order to maintain its role as its brother's keeper. Based on 1Thessalonians 5:22, which says to abstain from all appearance of evil, popular legalisms promoted are: no drinking, smoking, dancing, going to movies, or attending sporting events (because beer is sold). Women can't cut their hair or wear makeup, jewelry or slacks. Women's skirts or culottes must be at least below the knee in length. Men must wear trousers at all times, regardless of the weather. No eating out on Sundays. Everything must be approved by a minister. The list is endless. While I am not advocating a free-wheeling lifestyle, I am saying that we are to walk in the Lord's light. Our deeds are like filthy rags to Him; it is what is in our hearts that matters. Legalism pits believers against one another in an unending cycle of condemnation. Additionally, it can turn people away from understanding the grace of Christ when they are made to feel that they have bigger shoes to fill than they can wear. Matthew 23:24: “[Ye] Blind guides, who strain on a gnat and swallow a camel!” 4. KJVOnlyism Some Christians proclaim that the 1611 King James Version (KJV) is the one and only true English version of the word of God and that all other versions were corrupted by Satan. While Rapture Ready uses the KJV for Scripture references, it is only because this version is the mostly widely quoted. Nothing is dramatically wrong with other versions of Christian Bibles such as the New King James Version, New American Standard Version, and the Revised Standard Version. However, some versions, such as the Clear Word Bible of the Seventh Day Adventists or the New World Translation of the Jehovah's Witnesses, were specifically rewritten to accommodate private interpretations, but even these versions contains the heart of Biblical truth. No Bible version says that Satan died for our sins. The King James Only crowd implies that positive magical qualities are attached to the KJV version, and that negative energies indwell all non-KJV Bibles. I have never found a need to go digging into the meaning of the original Hebrew and Greek. Whenever I encounter a passage that seems unclear to me, most of the time, I'm able to find some other verse that resolves the confusion. The King James Version was written in Elizabethan English (a la Shakespeare), and can be rather difficult for people to read, especially for those new to the faith. What is more important: encouraging people to read their Bibles to learn about Jesus, or overwhelming them with language that makes understanding the text more difficult, causing them to turn to commentaries of man rather than the Word of God? Hebrews 5:12: “For though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach you again the first principles of the oracles of God; and you have come to need milk and not solid food.” 5. Word of Faith Proponents This group promotes the doctrine of “name-it-claim-it,” which says that the Lord has a storehouse full of blessings in heaven just waiting for the faithful to claim while they’re here on earth. It teaches that those in the Lord's favor are blessed with health and wealth and that those who are struggling in life are not blessed because of their inferior relationship with the Lord and their inferior faith and trust in Him. The biggest question here is the one of universal application. Is this teaching practical and accessible to all? Is a teaching of the Lord if it only applies to affluent suburbia but not the underdeveloped nations of the world? What application does the teaching have for believers imprisoned for their faith by atheistic, Islamic and other repressive governments? Word of Faith promotes elitism between the “haves” and the “have nots” by claiming that those who “have not” are inferior Christians of inferior faith and the Lord is treating them as such. Matthew 6:19-20: "Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal; but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal.” Mark 10:31: “But many who are first will be last, and the last first." 6. The Intellectuals One of the most basic human desires is the praise of mankind. Many Christians like to impress other believers with their intellectual capabilities. Some go as far as proclaiming themselves spiritually superior to anyone who doesn’t share the same level of academic achievement. The intellectual crowd is very harmful to the spreading of the Gospel. They motivate fellow Christians to try to master a lofty vocabulary that is often above the heads of average people. They hold the general philosophy that it is better to appear to be intelligent than it is to be understood by your audience. The Bible repeatedly warns against trusting in the flesh for wisdom. Because Satan is a spirit being, with nearly unlimited intellectual skills, no man is able to match wits with him. Anyone who strays from the Word of God to rely on his own understanding is making a terrible mistake. 1 Corinthians 3:18-19: “Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise. For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness.” Romans 1:21-22: “Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.” Bottom Line Individuals who hold to an “I'm a better Christian than you” mindset can always find Scripture that will support their stance. What they need to do is examine their rationale for holding to this view. If their offering of correction is not sparked from love, then one can only conclude vanity is their only motivation. Philippians 2:2-3: “Fulfill my joy by being like-minded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind. Let nothing be done through selfish ambition or conceit, but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than himself.” --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
