Watched the TV series, The River. First episode was ok but it then had me hooked from the second episode onwards. The ending of the first season does sort of have an ending. Shame it was cancelled

I just read Valsuelm's post and this is an anime thread? I thought it had to do with depression? I didn't really understand the context of the videos in the original post. Should have a mod rename the title of the thread as Anime and put more context in your original post. eg. explanation as to what your point is.

The End of America (and Western World)
Hiro Protagonist replied to obyknven's topic in Way Off-Topic
I'm going to go against most people here and say I prefer slim women instead of chubby overweight women. My partner is slim and looks great and she likes for me to be slim as well. The main reason being healthy without any unnecessary health risks associated with obesity. I've put on weight in the past and have now taken it off and given the choice, I prefer to be slim and healthy than overweight. -
Watched the series finale of Fringe. Really enjoyed the overall series and ending. Will probably go back and watch the entire series again some time in the future and have fun connecting all the dots.

Sitting at home with the aircon on in this heat. It reached 46.4°c (115.52°F) in Sydney where I live today. When I went outside in direct sunlight to my car, it felt like the sun was burning my skin.

If I was a judge, I'd dismiss the case against the home owners.

Who is he? Never heard of him.

Saw the Hobbit yesterday. 2D version. Loved it. Perfectly paced, the time just flew and nothing to fault from me.

It's not really fair for the kids to be dragged into this. If you're angry with your parents, then don't use your kids against them. I think that's pretty low tbh.

They say love is blind. eg. If you love someone, you cannot see any faults in that person. That's what basically comes across from yourself Hurlshot with your wife. While your wife is rubbing people the wrong way with things she says and doesn't say (eg. thank you), and you obviously don't see these things. My wife and I have been married for five years and have a wonderful relationship. Sometimes I will point out her faults and she will do the same with me. That's how we learn and improve ourselves. We don't take offense because if it's something where not aware of, we then become aware of it and realise, 'yeah, that is kind of rude/stupid/etc of me'. But you have to be objective and see the faults in yourself. Bragging is also tiresome and no one wants to hear someone bragging about something they did many years ago. If they don't have new experiences to share (not bragging), then it really limits what you can talk about. It also helps relationhips when you invite family and friends over for dinner, but it seems your wife doesn't really care? That's probably how it comes across with your dad.

And yet other people also get bullied, suffer from despression and do this. Just because thousands who are bullied and suffer from despression don't massacre people doesn't mean it applies to all people.

Watched Dungeons and Dragons 3 - Book of Vile Darkness. Better than the first movie, but that's not saying much.
-
It's a great show. It all makes sense in the last few episodes of the season.

Obvious mental health problems? I've seen some of the most trained specialists misdiagnose or given people a clean bill of health. You'd be surprised how easy it is for people to hide their mental illnesses from medical specialists. If someone wants to hide their mental illness, they will use cunning and guile to hide it from the most professional of medical experts.

Overhaul didn't leave out 'all' the cinematics. They left 'most' of them out. They did enhance and kept a couple of the cinematics in. Obviously with the delayed date and everything else with Overhaul, time was an issue and they couldn't get around to doing everything. Overhaul was stil working on the enhanced world map after their first release date was delayed. That tells me they were behind the eight ball a few weeks ago. It's only coming to light how far behind they are with 'enhancing' the game with having to cut original content from the game.

Reminds me of this TV ad. Children see, children do.

I have dual screens. I game on one with the volume turned down and watch TV on the other. I managed to play Diablo 3 for the last few weeks while catching up on watching all my TV shows. Even managed to watch Season 1 of Person of Interest last week. Caught up on the latest episodes of Fringe, Merlin, Walking Dead, CSI, Criminal Minds, Hawaii Five-0. It's great being able to do two things at once. Also watched The Expendables 2 and Total Recall (2012). Didn't mind both of them although with Total Recall, it didn't make sense how they travel from Australia to Britain.

I never watched the theatrical version of Red Cliff. To go from 4 hours 40 minutes down to 2 1/2 hours is really missing out on the story. You're basically missing half the movie. I'm not even sure how they could take so much out and make the story comprehensible.

Finally got around to watching the Dark Knight Rises last night. Really enjoyed it.

Or the disaster movies in the mid-late 1990s.

Also from the article: the use of coal, now the dirtiest fuel, continues to rise elsewhere. eg. China http://www.nytimes.com/2012/11/13/business/energy-environment/china-leads-the-way-as-demand-for-coal-surges-worldwide.html 'China is expected to add 240 gigawatts, the equivalent of adding about 160 new coal-fired plants to the 620 operating now, within four years.' That averages out to an equivalent of 40 new coal-fired plants a year. Nearly one new power plant a week.

You're talking about Highlander? That had a really old man going out with a young woman.

Watched Twilight and New Moon with the gf on the weekend. Enjoyed both movies. Will have to watch the last ones to find out what happens.

It's interesting that you're calling me dishonest and denying things. Can you point to any of my posts where I have been dishonest and denied anything? No I didn't think so. Another attempt by Krezack to go on the attack with no substance to substantiate his claims. The facts remain: FACT You started pointing out Australia's 'per capita' pollution levels and how bad we are. I stated that the Falkland Islands puts out more CO2 per capita than Australia and has done so since 1990. And yet no one is working with those countries to help them reduce their carbon emissions. Everyone seems to go for the easy targets like Australia, America, etc. It should be a group effort with all countries, not picking and choosing which countries should reduce their emissions. FACT Australia spends billions on wasted programs like the desalination plants when our dams are full because Australia's idiot Climate Commisioner appointed by the Labor Party, who then panicked the Labor Government back in 2007 by predicting doomsday prophecies such as Australia wouldn't get the sort of rains they had in the past which were proven to be totally false. Our dams are currently full in our cities. Wouldn't that money be better spent on programs that would be beneficial to the environment? FACT I stated more meaningful programs should be encouraged and not just 'any program that doesn't do anything for the climate' just so you can say 'look, we're doing something'. How are desalination plants helping the environment and climate change? FACT Whenever I point out that better programs should be implemented because the current ones I've mentioned that Australia has put in don't do anything for Climate Change, you go on the attack and try to misrepresent me in calling me a denialist? What sort of crazy twisted madman logic is that. You're all for going on the attack against people but offer no suggestions or solutions. The only thing you seem to be able to do is ignore everything you reply to from a post, and use google to find links and copy/paste from websites that have no bearing on what you're replying to in the first place. It sounds like you're all for wasting money on projects that don't do anything for Climate Change but then like to stand in front of everyone and say, 'look world, we're doing something'. Here's an idea: The Australian Government gives millions to an inefficient car industry that otherwise would have been shut down years ago to produce polluting cars including cars that are petrol, diesel and hybrid cars. Why not have the government only give money to the car manufacturuers that make hybrid cars for them to be cheaper? If you make a petrol or diesel car, you won't get any subsidies. If you make a hybrid car, you will get subsisidies. The public wins because the hybrids are cheaper instead of being more expensive than normal cars. The environment wins because we're using less fuel.

According to your messiah climate scientist Tim Flannery: "Even if all the world today stopped emitting CO2, it would take probably 1000 years to maybe affect global temperature if any." Wow, he can predict what will happen in 1000 years. Going on his previous predictions, he has no more credibilty than a rain dancer trying to make it rain. No you're completely wrong. If anyone decides to ask a question, you jump all over them and start throwing insults all over the place. The fact is most people don't take you seriously because you have no ability to engage in a discussion. You're like the polar opposite of Australian Radio personality Alan Jones but worse. Alan Jones will spew bile over anyone who believes in Climate Change. You spew bile over anyone that a) doesn't believe in Climate change or b) if they believe in Climate Change but asks legitimate questions about Climate Change that don't conform to your twisted views. If anyone has legitimate questions to ask, you spew bile and insults all over them. Also Tim Flannery has been wrong on everything he has predicted. It's laughable that you even say "been bang on the money on many things". The guy is a fool and a joke to the science community and does more harm to the Cilmate Change movement than anyone could. Any self respecting climate scientist wouldn't associate themselves with him. This statement alone by you shows how much your fanaticism you really have towards him.
