It hires a band of (largely aged) mercenaries in London and sends them in to save the virtuous but imprisoned opposition leader who is also critically ill and due for execution.

How far is the film 'The Wild Geese' representative of modern day mercenary action?
I know it is 30 years old but is this still how things work, in a nutshell and with allowances for the development of techonology?

It was accurate in its time frame ,the mercenary community could not contemplate regime change now ,too many U,N, DOGOODERS see Dharfour for example.

Making for the allowances you have mentioned, it’s not a million miles away
ALLEN B | Jun 03, 2007

no, nowadays mercenary companies tend to have respectable offices and call themselves international security contractors or private military companies instead of having gunfights with the local mafia in the upstairs of a casino. Its still a great film though!!
vdv_desantnik | Jun 03, 2007

About the same as "Gladiator" being asscociated to Boxing.

Dont believe all the crap you see in the movies laddy.

I need a rap song about earthquakes or tectonic plates.?
Okay so my science class is doing a project. We have 15 different subjects we can pick from and they are all worth a certain amount of points but we have to total to 40 points. I have already done 20 points of work but I need 20 more. I can make up a rap but it has to go to the beat of a real song. Can someone help me please!!! The rap has to be about either Earthquakes, Tectonic plates, or Seismic waves.

Try Will Smiths Boom Boom Shake the Room.
The chorus will fit with your topic, so you just need to write the verses.

Questions about Diet and Exercise Programs?
I’ve decided I’m going to do the "Tyler Durden" diet from Fight Club.

Which is this:

"Breakfast would be: 6 eggs, 6 whites, 7 yellow and 75g of oatmeal with raisins. Occasionally Pitt would replace the eggs with a Protein Shake if his schedule was tight.

Midmorning snack: Tinned Tuna in Wholewheat Pitta Breads

Lunch: 2 x Chicken Breasts, 75-100g Brown Rice or Pasta and green veggies

Mid-afternoon snack [Pre-Workout]: protein bar or Whey Protein Shake and a Banana

Post Workout: Whey Protein Shake and a Banana

Dinner: Grilled fish or chicken, brown rice or pasta, vegetables, and salad.

Evening Snack: Casein Protein Shake Protein shake or Low Fat Cottage Cheese (Slow Release Protein)"

^Now that’s the portions that Brad Pitt had to eat. I wanted to know what they would be for me.
I got all the calculations below from the P90X Nutrition Plan.

My height is 5′6 (don’t know height matters, but it couldn’t hurt to add it)
Weight is 138 lbs
RMR is 1380 calories
Daily activity burn is 276 calories
Energy burn is 2256 Calories

Now I know what my diet is going to be, but I was also thinking, for the exercising part should I do P90X or Arnell Ricafranca’s "How to Be Ripped Like Brad Pitt From Fight Club in 12 Weeks or Less" Program (aka Tyler Durden Workout).

You can see Tyler Durden workout right here: http://www.youtube.com/user/AmazingWorko uts

I know I’m asking a lot, but thanks a LOT to anyone who helps!
Oh and I forgot to add that according to the P90X Nutrition Plan, I am have a "Level 1" metabolism.
With Level 1 Metabolism, it says that your energy amount is between 1800 and 2399 and your nutrition level is 1800 calories a day.

movie about a boy who finds a magical world?? the name?
from about 1996 to 2003, somewhere in there, its not spiderwick or mighty mouse, but in the movie a boy finds this world then finds a talking mouse an i remember the mouse tellin the boys dad his fly is undone an the mouse also yells "here i come to save the day" and the boy is against all these creatures in this enchanted world an some are on his side, its kinda like bridge to terabithia an spiderwick but its not them.

Some of the details sound like Little Nemo: Adventures in Slumberland, which was made in 1989 where a young boy finds a magical slumberland and he has a talking pet flying squirrel

Baader Meinhof Complex, The (2008)

IMDB rating: 7.40

Plot: Germany in the 1970s: Murderous bomb attacks, the threat of terrorism and the fear of the enemy inside are rocking the very foundations of the yet fragile German democracy. The radicalised children of the Nazi generation lead by Andreas Baader, Ulrike Meinhof and Gudrun Ensslin are fighting a violent war against what they perceive as the new face of fascism: American imperialism supported by the German establishment, many of whom have a Nazi past. Their aim is to create a more human society but by employing inhuman means they not only spread terror and bloodshed, they also lose their own humanity. The man who understands them is also their hunter: the head of the German police force Horst Herold. And while he succeeds in his relentless pursuit of the young terrorists, he knows he’s only dealing with the tip of the iceberg.

Identity Theft (2007)

IMDB rating: 3.10

Plot: When a drug deal turns into a bloodbath, a junkie-gangster crosses paths with an illegal alien. The illegal alien ends up with the gangster’s ID and uses it to create a new successful life as a US citizen. A near death experience causes the gangster to re-evaluate his life, and when he leaves prison three years later, he is clean, sober, and ready to put his life back together. But both men are haunted by their pasts and they are soon set on a collision course that may destroy them and the women they love.

Directors: Rates Alfredo

Actors: Chavez Antonio,Tapia-Montt Cristobal,Villarreal Raul,Crime,Drama,

Can I sue someone for identity theft even if I'm not the victim?
About a month ago my girlfriend’s sister stole my girlfriend’s ID and credit card, and now my girlfriend found out she is over her credit limit in debt to the bank. Not only did her sister did that, but she stole about 5 thousand dollars via checks from her mom’s account as well. Here is my dilemma, I wish i could do something before my girlfriend ruins her credit, and before she and her mom end up in the street. I had to loan them money to pay for last month’s rent since her mom just lost her job not to long ago and my gf doesn’t make enough to cover it.
I have proof of what she has done, but my gf doesn’t want to sue her since its her sister and she is scared of what the family may think if she ends up in jail, and well her mom won’t do it either.
So can i sue this person for identity theft even if i am not the victim?

I know you want to rush to defend your gf, but you have no legal recourse to recoup losses that you personally didn’t incur. Neither of them are standing up for themselves…and are enabling this person’s criminal activities…relative or not. But, since they’re the only ones who can legally do anything about this, the best thing you can do is to leave them no option by not bailing them out anymore. I know it’s tough…but it’s the only way to get any kind of closure on this situation.

Don't Make Me Come In There! | Feb 05, 2010

no because it does not have your name on any of the
credit cards. the only thing you can do is convince her
to press charges.
mad_1240 | Feb 05, 2010

All I can say is I’m sorry. Morality and ethics should not intertwine by any means. Just on the flip side that your girlfriend experienced. Her sister doesn’t seem to want to intertwine the two. She stole from her own family member. Just as your girlfriend should treat it… someone stole from her. It doesn’t matter that it’s her family member. Surely you can explain the moral and ethical implications of pressing charges to your girl. Due to the fact morality doesn’t exist for the sister stealing her identity.

It’s all to common. Just like John Coffey from the Green Mile says, ‘People kill each other with their love everyday.’ Everybody uses an others goodwill against them in order to benefit at their expense. It’s up to you to explain to your girlfriend the separation between morality and ethics in this situation. Her family will respect her for doing what is right… not what is morally right. Due to the fact this situation is devoid of morality. Her sister saw to that.

Robin Hood: Men in Tights

floydguthrie1980 — Thu, 18 Mar 2010 17:56:21 +0000

Robin Hood: Men in Tights (1993)

IMDB rating: 6.00

Plot: The standard story of Robin Hood: Evil Prince John is oppressing the people while good King Richard is away on the Crusades. Robin steals from the tax collectors, wins an archery contest, defeats the Sheriff, and rescues Maid Marian. In this version, however, Mel Brooks adds his own personal touch, parodying traditional adventure films, romance films, and the whole idea of men running around the woods in tights.

Would "Robin Hood: Men in Tights" be suitable to show at a disability awareness event?
I am part of a group on campus that serves to raise disability awareness and provide support for those with disabilities that need extra help. We are trying to put on an appreciation movie night for our volunteers, and want a fun comedy to present that isn’t necessarily about disabilities. Does "Robin Hood: Men in Tights" contain any obvious jokes about homophobia, disabilities, or race?

Implicit references are not a problem. I would only be concerned if it was obvious.

Do not show that movie there..pick something else..bc i dont think its very appropriate

potterhead#1 | Mar 03, 2009

not as far as i know of. theres only a few gay jokes in there about the tights but they are well disguised (pun intended lol )

Plot: Berlin, July, 1945. Journalist Jake Geismer arrives to cover the Potsdam conference, issued a captain’s uniform for easier passage. He also wants to find Lena, an old flame who’s now a prostitute desperate to get out of Berlin. He discovers that the driver he’s assigned, a cheerful down-home sadist named Corporal Tully, is Lena’s keeper. When the body of a murdered man washes up in Potsdam (within the Russian sector), Jake may be the only person who wants to solve the crime: U.S. personnel are busy finding Nazis to bring to trial, the Russians and the Americans are looking for German rocket scientists, and Lena has her own secrets.

Read my story what do you think?
England was just the type of place I loved. Cold wet rainy, never snow but lots of ice. Huge green fields and forests and country houses. I was saying goodbye to it all. My family, my school, my county. My friends. Moving to Australia had always been my worst nightmare, hot sunny, deadly animals, all we had was the adder and we never saw any of them. If I wanted to stay academic then I had to go. If I just went to some care home then there was no way I would keep up my A* average. Partly because of my dad
