Hiro Protagonist

With the value of the US$ going down like a lead balloon and the aussie going through the roof, now is the time to get some Gold!!! Gold prices have sky rocketed. US$1053.00 an ounce and climbing. Even Silver has gone up to $17.00.

Great time to go on a holiday to the States.

I read that article as well, although I'm not sure it's nuclear weapons that has prevented a third world war.

Looks like new aliens with advanced technology to be able to hitch a ride without setting off any sensors.

ah yes. It's not 20 million (where the hell did I get that figure from? ), it's only 1.4 million.

The peace prize also comes with $20 million in cash if I'm not mistaken. I think it would be good for Obama to donate the money to a peace keeping organisation(s) or to a worthwhile cause in the name of peace.

I thought it was a bit retarded as well. Scientists, especially scientists working in that field , would have picked up on something that big and drew the connection before the FBI did as the data appeared to be from a scientific database. I hope we don't see something like this again where something has affected the entire planet in PLAIN SIGHT of everyone but only weeks or months later they only just come across it.

Transformers Revenge of the Fallen. Thought it was pretty good although quite long.

I thought that was classic.

This show comes across as something like Star Trek Voyager. A Ship light years from Earth, people trying to get back to home to Earth, stopping off at planets on their journey, meeting new aliens, etc

great moment. Also, I liked how the kids were all laying down and Charlie standing there... it was eerie at first and then what happened next when they got up was creepy.

^ That's what they did with Terminator The Sarah Connor Chronicles. First Season was great with 9 episodes. Second Season sucked with 22 episodes (except for the last episode).

Just watched Halo Wars and didn't realise it was the cut scenes from the game stuck together to make a "movie". Not having played the game, I didn't get the whole story but managed to get the general idea of what was going on. Kind of feels like a wasted download but still... Brilliant animation though.

So will Polanski still get his Lifetime achievement award from the Swiss Film Festival? I'm guessing someone will accept it on his behalf.

Gosh, this weeks episode had Bruce Boxleitner in it. He looks so old since the Babylon 5 days. Also, it looks like they want to kill off Hiro since he's using his power every 5 minutes.

The mystery is unravelling, but at a very slow pace. It seems they like to put a cliffhanger on every episode. The second episode was quite good.

My thoughts exactly. A 2.5" pocket HDD can hold over 450 movies or 900 TV episodes. Why would you use a CD/DVD Disc?

Watched the Cube Trilogy. Cube Zero, Cube, Cube 2 Hypercube.

Just watched Doomsday. Wow, what a great movie. To quote somebody from imdb... this movie had it all! Mad Max+Escape from New York+28 days later+Braveheart!!! Plus Kate Beckinsale, I mean Rhona Mitra, walking around in her skin-tight wardrobe is always a benefit. I hope the sequel has Matrix + Jaws + Aliens + Tron in it. I don't know what the hell kind of plot could be made from those, but who gives a damn?!!

According to wikipedia (which is a dubious source), Nestle holds 26.4% of the shares of L'Or

"Nah she was 13 as well. So if having sex with a 13-year old is automaticly rape, did we both rape each other?" Not sure. Acording to some Laws, if two minors have sex, the older of the two participants is technically guilty of statutory rape. Depends on the country I guess.

^ and he might actually enjoy it.

If your first girlfriend was 20 and had sex with her, then I don't see how you're raping the 20 year old.

Again, stop making up stuff on the run. That's TWICE now Gromnir. I said - "Even more disturbing is she admitted she had sex twice before being raped by Polanski. That's three times she's been raped. Whether consensual or not, it's still rape. " You said - "you serious? how many kids has played doctor in basement with a neighbor?" You're the one that's suggested the AGE of the person with this 13 year old girl by dismissing it as two minors having sex. I never said anything about age in the FIRST place and later suggested it may have been an adult? an uncle? WHO KNOWS? Maybe it was an uncle and the family didn't want to make this worse than it already is. You're the one that's suggesting she had sex with a minor and dismissing it as such. What a callous and insensitive thing to say. The most obvious reason? Unbelievable. I NEVER said it did absolve Polanski. That's the THIRD time you're making stuff up. Show me a post where I said it did. The fact is you can't because I never said that and you never quoted me on saying that. I NEVER said it was less disturbing. That's the FOURTH time you're making stuff up. Show me a post where I said it did. The fact is you can't because I never said that and you never quoted me on saying that.

Stop making up Straw man arguments and making up stuff. What disturbs me is that the Prosecutors haven't done anything to bring ALL the rapists to account. They're only going after one rapist. If you read my posts which you seem you haven't, I said she was raped more than once and Polanski and the other rapist(s) should be brought to justice. What disturbs me is your lack of understanding and comprehension of what I've posted and the fact that you condemn Polanski but it's okay for the other two times when she had sex and dismiss it as 'playing doctor with a neighbour'.
