Why did Nostradamus lied and convinced his people that the Christians' end is upon the Iraqis? Why did he lied and pushed the Americans to a great extent , in which they slaughtered millions of innocents for a big fat lie ? Americans did not come just for robbing the country’s riches , or else they would have killed a few thousands and left the place . But their malevolence is making them believe Nostradamus and finishing the modern Babylonians before they finish the anglo empire . Why did he lie ??? Many time over ???
First of all, his prophecies are intentionally vague – If he made them precise, people would be able to they were precise, people would be able to circumvent them; rendering them false. Second, it is written in medieval French; best understood only by those living within a few hundred miles of him. Third, the technology limits the accuracy of the text – In the movable text, letters often slipped out of place; and printers had to guess what the missing letter/wrong letter was. A wrong letter in poetry can change the entire meaning of a sentence/paragraph; for example, such analysis can tell you whether the Nazis were supposed to beat the Russians in wwii, or vice-versa.
Consequently, Nostradamus is only seriously believed by a few people with strong attachment to the so-called ‘dark arts’; a large portion of whom have some sort of mental illness–eg., maybe, Hitler. Therefore, to claim he ‘commanded’ the Americans in any meaningful way would be seriously wrong. Naz F | Jan 04, 2010

I need a good movie to watch? Hey guys, I’m really bored and I need a good movie (or better yet: a movie series) to enjoy. It’s spring break and most of my friends are gone and I currently don’t have a job to occupy me so I’m in need of something to do.
To give you a feel of what I like here’s some of my favorite movies:
Donnie Darko I am Legend Batman Begins/The Dark Knight Most other superhero movies (cept superman) Southland Tales Pineapple Express Grandmas boy The Matrix
Of course, if you thought a movie was really good and it isn’t similar to anything on that list feel free to tell me and I’ll look into it. Basically the only movies I hate is animation and "talking" animal movies or anything that casts a dog as the main character.
Thanks for any tips in advance

Republican win in Mass, a godsend to reducing unemployment/economy? http://www.reuters.com/article/idUSTRE60 J3GM20100120?type=politicsNews%3FfeedTyp e%3DRSS&feedName=politicsNews&ut m_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed& amp;utm_campaign=Feed%3A+Reuters%2FPolit icsNews+%28News+%2F+US+%2F+Politics+News %29&utm_content=Google+Feedfetcher "The White House said it may rethink its strategy for selling Obama’s agenda as it presses ahead with its priorities, including not only healthcare but job creation, climate change and financial regulatory reform."
http://www.reuters.com/article/idUSTRE60 J5IK20100120?type=politicsNews%3FfeedTyp e%3DRSS&feedName=politicsNews&ut m_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed& amp;utm_campaign=Feed%3A+Reuters%2FPolit icsNews+%28News+%2F+US+%2F+Politics+News %29&utm_content=Google+Feedfetcher "Senate loss will bolster Obama’s resolve on jobs, The loss of a key Democratic Senate seat will likely strengthen the resolve of President Barack Obama to press ahead urgently with a package of targeted proposals to spur U.S. job creation."
You’d think curing unemployment/economy would be the first thing Obama should of taken on, not only is it a higher priority, but it would be immensely useful for increasing his own popularity (assuming it was successful) and would be able to use that popularity to pass other items later on down the line. The fact that this adim waited till they lost some power to get back to the real issues (I’m assuming that’s what is going to happen) is telegraphing a very destructive message to voters, that the only way to reign them in is to vote them out, and we have seen in recent admins where this trend leads to.
Now that the focus in on the economy and on jobs, and we can assume there will be higher yields of co-operation, at the fighting will be over a goal we both want acomplish "a better economy". Anyways, I wish Obama luck in regards to restoring the economy, even though I know we are going to disagree on the means.
Alright, what are your thoughts on the election and how it effects/effected Obama? Do you think the prediction on the focus is incorrect? What are your thoughts on the articles?
And thank you for your time @chewy
Obama is a Keynesian, which means whether you like it or not, he believes government should get invovled, he hasn’t done much besides the stim, which means economy/unemployment is not a top priority.
since his stimulus packages monumental failure to produce any substantial numbers of job recovery i dont know how much trust he will be able to bolster up from the american people and other members of the senate to take another run at it. And you can say that his stimulus package takes time and make as many excuses as you want but it has already been proven that the white house officials are usin any numbers they can to make the stimulus package look like it is saving jobs. (link at bottom is one of many i can give for inflated numbers of jobs saved) and now they are even changing the way that jobs are counted as being "saved" so that any job that money touches even if it is a 1 dollar raise for a job that wasnt in trouble counts as that job being saved.
so i really dont know how much this helped or how obama will react but hopefully if he does decide to return to the problem of unemployment he will take his time and turn to things that might actually help save jobs on the scale that they suggest instead of ramming an inflated bill through as soon as they possible can.

Odyssey, The (1997)
Plot: This lavish small-screen adaptation of Homer’s ancient epic—replete with exotic Maltese and Turkish locations, state-of-the-art special effects, and many bronzed muscles gleaming with sweat—chronicles the voyage home of a Trojan hero, Odysseus King of Ithaca, and includes many more scenes of his faithful, beautiful wife Penelope dodging leering suitors at home than Homer ever composed!

In the odyssey, book XIX, does penelope recognize odysseus?
In Book 21, Penelope is put to sleep by the goddess Athene (Odysseus’ protector) to keep her away from the action that follows (the ‘dispatch’ of the suitors) before she ever recognizes Odysseus.
In Book 22 the mini-war with the suitors takes place. Penelope is asleep (by enchantment) through all of it.
In Book 23, Penelope is awakened along with Euripides [sp? I thought it was... um...'Euriclydes'-kind-of-spelling.... you'll know... the nurse who knew Odysseus right away] and others "…the handmaidens…"
…and Penelope still doubts who Odysseus really is.
That’s when she asks him to prove who he is by bringing her the bed she and her husband (Odysseus) slept on when together.
Odysseus becomes angry because he built the entire bed chamber himself and knows the whole thing is rooted in the ground and can’t be moved.
In this Book and in this way is when Penelope finally recognizes and welcomes Odysseus home.
ADD…thumbs up for getting close on the "bed test" – Penelope and Odysseus are the only ones who knew that about the bed – only it was the entire bed chamber rooted in the ground – and here’s which book where she finally knows her husband. End ADD LK | Feb 09, 2010

It seems like Australia is just as much of a soft touch as the UK when it comes to violence on children? A FATHER-OF-FOUR who killed his girlfriend’s newborn son by shaking him so hard it caused his brain to haemorrhage has had his parole eligibility date cut by three years.
Matthew Andrew Riseley, 22, was jailed for eight years after pleading guilty to the manslaughter of 19-day-old Isaac James Lazarus on November 10, 2007.
But a Court of Appeal judge in Brisbane today found the incident may be explained as "an error of judgment by a tired and immature young man".

OK Boston Bruins Fans let me hear your anger.? OK the B’s have not won a game since the Winter Classics, which I think they should of lost. Now they’ve lost 10 games in a row. WTF is wrong with this team? Last yr they were first in their division made it to the second round of the playoffs before losing to the Hurricanes. Now they can’t win a game even when they were healthy. I honestly think the team as given up. I honestly hope they do because if they don’t care why should as fans. Man now I know how it feels to be a Raiders, Chiefs, Lions, Browns, Clippers, Net, Knicks fan. I know there’s more. Too the second person who responded. How does the Bruins losing serve me right???
