The Sikh religion has various established beliefs and values that are inherent in the basic philosophy of the faith. A Sikh believes in only one God – This God is the same for all peoples of the Universe and is gender neutral. So when we refer to God, we can call God masculine or feminine. So God can be referred to as 'He' or 'She'. This one God is the God of the Sikhs, Hindus, Muslims, Christians, Jews, etc – of all the peoples. He is formless, fearless, without enemies, self-created, etc. The Sikh Holy Scriptures, called the Sri Guru Granth Sahib explain the various facets of God in substantial detail. This principle leads to the concept of equality amount all human races, sects, gender, social classes, etc. There is a recognised believe that people of other faiths can also reunite with God provided they follow the true path of their own religion. So the Sikh does not believe that they have a monopoly on God or are the 'chosen' people.
The Sikhs believe in the evolution of the Soul and the principle of reincarnation. The soul is believed to be a tiny spark of God's light detached from the Almighty. This spark is separated from God and wants to become pure so that it can reunite with God. For this to happen, the Soul has to evolve and purify itself so that this reunification with the Supreme Soul can take place. The law of Karma is another concept central to this faith. Ones actions in this life will have a direct influence on the type of life in your next existence! So to adhere to these principles, the dedicated follower must lead a disciplined personal life and must uphold the moral and ethnical rights of all the peoples of the world. So it is a must to lead a spiritually correct life at all times and to be ready to be subjected to personal sacrifices if the liberty of any weak person(s) is at stake.
Another central tenet of Sikhism is the concept of 'Chardi kala' – Positive attitude to life at all times. Graciously and with humility to accept the will of God at all times. Always to lead ones life unattached and untangled with the material world. Not to come under the influence of Maya – the illusionary and transient world around us. To remain detached from this world but to recognise ones duties to God and his creation.
One God
There is only ONE God who has infinite qualities and names; S/He* is the same for all religions; God is Creator & Sustainer -All that you see around you is God's Creation; S/He* is everywhere, and in everything; S/He is fearless and with no Enemies; Only God is without birth or death and S/He* has and will exist forever.
Below are quotations from Guru Granth Sahib (SGGS) which reinforce the summaries outlined above:
a). There is One God: from SGGS page 45:
|paarbarahm parabh ayk hai doojaa naahee ko-ay.
|There is only the One Supreme Lord God;there is no other.
|jee-o pind sabh tis kaa jo tis bhaavai so ho-ay.
|Soul and body are all Yours; whatever pleases You, shall happen.
|gur poorai pooraa bha-i-aa jap naanak sachaa so-ay. .4-9-79.
|Through the Perfect Guru, one becomes perfect; O Nanak, meditate on the True One.
For the Original text please follow: SriGranth.org and enter the page number.
b). God the creator ? from page 1036:
| "He formed the planets, solar systems and nether regions, and brought what was hidden to manifestation
When He so willed, He created the world.
Without any supporting power, He sustained the universe."
Re-incarnation, Karma & Salvation
Sikhs believe that every creature has a Soul; on death, the Soul is passed from one body to another until Liberation. The journey of the Soul is governed by the deeds and actions that we perform during our lives. If we perform good deeds and actions and remember the Creator, we attain a better life. On the contrary, if we carry out evil actions and sinful deeds, we will be incarnated in "lower" life forms – snakes, ghosts, animals, etc. The person who has evolved to spiritual perfection attains salvation – union with God.
The following lines from SGGS explain how our deeds and actions (or Karma) have an impact on the future of the soul and reincarnation:
| "Virtue and vice do not come by mere words;
actions repeated, over and over again, are engraved on the soul.
You shall harvest what you plant.
O Nanak, by the Hukam of God's Command, we come and go in reincarnation."
| "The soul-bride in love with duality goes around the wheel of reincarnation, through 8.4 million incarnations.
Without the Guru, she finds no sleep, and she passes her life-night in pain.
Without the Shabad, she does not find her Husband Lord, and her life wastes away in vain."
| "The blind have forgotten the Naam, the Name of the Lord.
The self-willed manmukhs (ego centred person) are in utter darkness.
Their comings and goings in reincarnation do not end; through death and rebirth, they are wasting away. "
| "Purchase only that for which you have come into the world,
and through the Guru, the Lord shall dwell within your mind.
Within the home of your own inner being,
you shall obtain the Mansion of the Lord's Presence with intuitive ease.
You shall not be consigned again to the wheel of reincarnation. "
Remember God
Love God but also have fear of Him/Her* as well. Only by keeping the Creator in your mind at all times, will you make progress in your spiritual evolution. The Sikh Guru ask the devotees to mediate with single mindedness; dispel doubt; remain focused; subdue their ego; thus glory will be obtained.
The following line from SGGS elaborate on the importance of remembering the Almighty Lord:
- On Page 18 – see Text in Red from line 761
- Those contented souls who meditate on the Lord with single-minded love, meet the True Lord.
- On Page 23 – see Text in Red at line 945
- Those who are imbued with the love of the Name of the Lord are not loaded down by doubt.
- On Page 128– see Text in Red at line 5239
- The pure swans, with love and affection, dwell in the Ocean of the Lord, and subdue their ego.
- On Page 130 – see Text in Red at line 5297
- The Gurmukh remains forever imbued with the Lord's Love. Meeting the True Lord, glory is obtained. ||6||
Equality & Brotherhood* of mankind (Humanhood)
Sikhs believe that all human beings are equal. "We are sons and daughters of Waheguru, the Almighty". Sikhs have to treat all peoples of the world on an equal footing. No gender, racial, social, etc discrimination is allowed. This is the message of Guru Nanak as taught by the 10 Sikh Masters during the period 1469 to 1708.
Guru Angad stood for a caste-less and class-less society, in which no one was superior to the other and no one, through greed or selfishness, could be allowed to encroach upon the rights of others. In short, he visualized a society in which members lived like a family, helping and supporting one another. He not only preached equality but practised it. To promote the acceptance of human equality, Guru established a community kitchen where all sat together in a row, regardless of caste or status, and ate the same food.
Guru Angad said, "He Himself creates, O Nanak; He establishes the various creatures. How can anyone be called bad?. There is One Lord and Master of all; He watches over all, and assigns all to their tasks. Some have less, and some have more; no one is allowed to leave empty." – Guru Angad Dev
Furthermore, the guru stressed the importance of adopting a uniform way of praising God and the utility of a social organization based on equality. He established a holy congregation, or Sangat, where people of different beliefs and varying social status sat together to hear the Master's singing of hymns and to be inspired to lead a noble life.
The following lines from SGGS explain about the importance of treating every person as an equal:
"They look upon all with equality, and recognize the Supreme Soul, the Lord, pervading among all. Those who sing the Praises of the Lord, Har, Har, obtain the supreme status; they are the most exalted and acclaimed people. ((2))" SGGS Page 446
"He is within - see Him outside as well; there is no one, other than Him. As Gurmukh, look upon all with the single eye of equality; in each and every heart, the Divine Light is contained. ((2))" SGGS Page 599
"There is only one breath; all are made of the same clay; the light within all is the same. The One Light pervades all the many and various beings. This Light intermingles with them, but it is not diluted or obscured. By Guru's Grace, I have come to see the One. I am a sacrifice to the True Guru. ((3))" SGGS Page 96
Uphold personal rights of all
Everyone has a right to live according to their beliefs and religion
The Sikh Gurus have defended, safeguarded, fought and sacrificed to uphold the rights of others no matter what their religion, caste, gender or race. The message promoted by the Guru is to allow all to live freely without undue interference and restrictions. No one is to be forced into a different belief system under threat of force. This philosophy was vigorously defended by all the Sikh Gurus]] but came into sharp focus when the ninth Sikh master, Guru Teg Bahadur choose to sacrifice his life for the defence of the Kashmiri pandits who were being persecuted by the Mughal government during that time.
Personal Sacrifice
The Gurus have left a legacy for the Sikhs to follow. To uphold high moral standards and to undertake personal sacrifice to protect and guard these high principles. The prime candidates in understanding this principle is realised by examining the lives of Guru Arjan Dev (5th Guru), Guru Tegh Bahadur (9th Guru) and Guru Gobind Singh (10th Guru).
Guru Tegh Bahadur sacrificed his life to save the Kashmiri Pundits from persecution by the Mughal rulers of the time. When these Pundits came to ask for help from the Guru, the Guru did not flinch from his responsibility to protect the weak and in so doing, paid the ultimate price. The tyrant Emperor Aurangzeb beheaded the Guru for not converting to Islam. But this sacrifice, the Guru's determination and sacrifice showed the rulers the solid resolve of the masses and thus the persecution of the masses subsided.
By carrying out this ultimate sacrifice, the leader of the Sikhs showed them the way to challenge oppression. Oppression and Tyranny had to tackled with a strong and unwavering resolve. Many other examples like this can be found in the History of the Sikhs.
On page 1377 of SGGS the Guru tells us:
"Kabeer, if you desire to play the game of love with the Lord, then cut off your head, and make it into a ball. Lose yourself in the play of it, and then whatever will be, will be. ||239|| Kabeer, if you desire to play the game of love with the Lord, play it with someone with commitment. Pressing the unripe mustard seeds produces neither oil nor flour. ||240||"
So can play this game of love with commitment and sacrifice.
Many Paths lead to God
The Sikh Gurus tell us that salvation can be obtained by following various spiritual paths. Therefore, Sikhs do not have a monopoly on Salvation – "Many Spiritual paths lead to God" – Sikhs do not therefore consider themselves as having a monopoly on God or a "superior" right to salvation. The Sikhs do not consider themselves as the "chosen people of God". However, the Sikh scripture is probably the only known holy book that advances this message of "religious equality" and offers advise for Muslims to be better Muslims and for Hindus to be better Hindus. Christian, Hindus, Muslim, Jews, etc all have the same right to liberty as a Sikhs.
The following lines from SGGS explain about the importance of treating every spiritual path as an equal and valid path to God and salvation:
- "One who recognizes that all spiritual paths lead to the One shall be emancipated. One who speaks lies shall fall into hell and burn. In all the world, the most blessed and sanctified are those who remain absorbed in Truth. One who eliminates selfishness and conceit is redeemed in the Court of the Lord. ||9||"
- "Some read the Vedas, and some the Koran. Some wear blue robes, and some wear white. ||3|| Some call themselves Muslim, and some call themselves Hindu. Some yearn for paradise, and others long for heaven. ||4|| Says Nanak, one who realizes the Hukam of God's Will, knows the secrets of his Lord and Master. ||5||9||"
- "Practice within your heart the teachings of the Koran and the Bible; restrain the ten sensory organs from straying into evil. Tie up the five demons of desire with faith, charity and contentment, and you shall be acceptable. ||4||"
- "Do not say that the Vedas, the Bible and the Koran are false. Those who do not contemplate them are false. You say that the One Lord is in all, so why do you kill chickens? ||1||"
- "By His Power the Vedas and the Puraanas exist, and the Holy Scriptures of the Jewish, Christian and Islamic religions. By His Power all deliberations exist."
Positive Attitude to Life
Chardi Kala This term is an important expression used in Sikhism for a mind frame that a Sikh has to accept and practise. It loosely means a "positive, buoyant and optimistic" attitude to life and the future. Always be – in "high spirits", "ever progressive", "always cheerful", etc are some other terms used to describe this phrase.
Sikhism dictates that Sikhs believes in the Will of God and that God is without enemies and is always merciful. Hence acceptance of his Will is in the interest of and for the benefit of His Creation, even if at times one suffers severe hardship.
This attitude of "Chardi Kala" is to allow one to sail through the ups and downs of life with as little harm as possible to the individual.
To join and help others in their hour of need is part of this "Chardi Kala" spirit.
Must not engage in meaningless rituals
The Sikh faith condemns empty rituals and superstitions. The practice of blind rituals, worshiping of idols and inanimate objects, participating in religious fasts, pilgrimage to holy places, offering of food to sadhus (religious leaders), or believing in any other such rituals, superstitions or fads, will not bring one closer to God or make one a better human being. In all societies round the world, through fear and uncertainty, members undertake in ritualistic and worthless behaviour at times of worry, uncertainty or trouble. These poor people, wrongly believe that undertaking these empty customs and penances will bring them special assistance from Waheguru or some other higher power.
The reliance on these blind customs appears to increase at time of stress in human existence. For example, In 1989, Susan Starr Sered conducted fieldwork among women who has just had a baby on the maternity ward of a Jerusalem hospital. The women who she interviewed reported having performed close to two hundred different religious and secular rituals during pregnancy, birth, and the immediate post-partum period. So, it is clear that ritualism has not faded but may be on the increase.
Superstition is an irrational belief arising from ignorance or doubt. Many people all around the world are gripped by various superstitions and they live their lives in fear and uncertainty. Most of these fears are irrational and superfluous but they still cannot unbind themselves from these evil and false notions. Some common and well-known examples of superstitions are:
- "When a black cat crosses one's path, something will happen if one crosses the line where the cat passed. To "undo" either wait for someone who didn't know about the black cat to cross the path or think of another route."
- "If you wash your hair on the first day of the month you will have a short life."
- "13 in the western world is considered an unlucky number. This double-digit represents Judas, who was the guest at the Last Supper who betrayed Jesus. As a result it is also thought to be unlucky to have a dinner party with 13 guests. Many hotels are missing a thirteenth floor or have omitted the number from their room doors. Friday the 13th of any month is said to be an unlucky day."
But the SGGS says "The mind is diseased with doubt, superstition and duality." (SGGS p416)and also "High and low, social class and status - the world wanders lost in superstition." (SGGS p1243). Superstition is like a disease for the mind it brings confusion and fear and takes you away from reality.
Disciplined Life
Upon baptism, must wear the Sikhs Five Ks (5Ks); strict recital of the 5 prayers Banis, etc.
No Special Worship Days
Sikhs do not believe that any particular day is holier than any other.
Conquer the 5 Thieves
It's every Sikh duty to defeat these 5 thieves: Lust (Kam), Anger (Krodh), Greed (Lobh), Attachment (Moh), and Ego (Ahankar). Within each person live these 5 thieves and it's the duty of every Sikh to subdue and control the behaviour of these emotions and enemies.
The following lines from SGGS explain about the dangers of these negative energies and how they lead to pain and suffering:
- "All of my companions are intoxicated with their sensory pleasures; they do not know how to guard their own home. The five thieves have plundered them; the thugs descend upon the unguarded village.||2||."
- "Within this body dwell the five thieves: sexual desire, anger, greed, emotional attachment and egotism. They plunder the Nectar, but the self-willed manmukh (ego minded person) does not realize it; no one hears his complaint. The world is blind, and its dealings are blind as well; without the Guru, there is only pitch darkness. ||2||"
- "All the sins of that humble being are taken away, all the pains are taken away, all diseases are taken away; sexual desire, anger, greed, attachment and egotistical pride are taken away. The Lord drives the five thieves out of such a person of the Lord. ||1|| Chant the Name of the Lord, O Holy Saints of the Lord; meditate on the Lord of the Universe, O Holy people of the Lord. Meditate in thought, word and deed on the Lord, Har, Har. Worship and adore the Lord, O Holy people of the Lord."
Attack with 5 Weapons
A Sikh must always be armed with the following virtues:
Humility (Nimrata) Compassion (Daya), Truth (Sat), Contentment (Santokh), and Love (Pyar)
|SGGS Page 235 Full Shabad
|The fruit of humility is intuitive peace and pleasure.

|SGGS Page 1384 Full Shabad
|Humility is the word, forgiveness is the virtue, and sweet speech is the magic mantra.
Wear these three robes, O sister, and you will captivate your Husband Lord. (127)
|SGGS Page 903 Full Shabad
|You have no compassion; the Lord`s Light does not shine in you.
You are drowned, drowned in worldly entanglements. (4)
|SGGS Page 353 Full Shabad
|The love of the Truth is my karma and Dharma - my faith and my actions, and my self-control.
O Nanak, one who is forgiven by the Lord is not called to account. The One Lord erases duality. (4,14)
|SGGS Page 51 Full Shabad
|Practice truth, contentment and kindness; this is the most excellent way of life.
One who is so blessed by the Formless Lord God renounces selfishness, and becomes the dust of all. (3)
|SGGS Page 228 Full Shabad
|Through truth and contentment, doubt is dispelled. (8)
|SGGS Page 422 Full Shabad

So banish corruption from your mind, and the True One will grant you Truth. (5)
|SGGS Page 822 Full Shabad
|Truth, contentment, compassion, Dharmic faith and purity - I have received these from the Teachings of the Saints.
Says Nanak, one who realizes this in his mind, achieves total understanding.(2,4,90)
|SGGS Page 1397 Full Shabad
|The armor of self-restraint, truth, contentment and humility can never be pierced.
|SGGS Page 235 Full Shabad
|The fruit of humility is intuitive peace and pleasure.
|SGGS Page 971 Full Shabad
|Bow in humility within your heart, and you will not have to be reincarnated over and over again. (2)
|SGGS Page 1384 Full Shabad
|Humility is the word, forgiveness is the virtue, and sweet speech is the magic mantra.
Wear these three robes, O sister, and you will captivate your Husband Lord. (127)

Does it really affect it that bad? Will the new search function help make it run similar to an AH? Just curious. I always hear my husband Q_Q about no AH. Yeah it's a pain. I agree but as far as economical function how is it affecting us the players?
I know for me, I have a very difficult time finding items I need, my husband as well, he can't find an AXE for his MRD. He is still using the one he started the game with.
However, I will say going through the wards is almost, to me very reminiscent of a kid at Christmas. You never know what you'll find ^_^

Kaelin from GA
Kaelin - congratulations! Easy decor for a masquerade would be masks - either bought from thrift stores or handmade, a little glitter or sequins and you're good to go . It's Mardi-Gras season, so you should find ideas for possible patterns everywhere. (01/27/2008)
By m.mckimmons
Another idea that would go with the masks is to use "harlequin" fabrics for table cloths and other cloth accessories. Harlequin is the colorful diamond-shaped fabric that is often seen on clown clothing as ruffs around the neck & wrists.
Also, how about using the drama masks of comedy and tragedy and working around those.
Happy 13th! (01/28/2008)

MIDDLETOWN, NJ - During the last week of September, the generous families, teachers, and staff of Nut Swamp Elementary School PTA in Middletown collectively donated $4,635 to TheTruth365 (via Infinite Love for Kids Fighting Cancer) as part of their annual Go Gold week to raise awareness and funding for pediatric cancer. (September was Childhood Cancer Awareness Month.)
The money they collected will be put to use by a network of researchers and oncologists in their ongoing quest to develop new treatments for kids fighting cancer. The students now have a deeper understanding of what it means for a child to have cancer and feel empowered knowing that they can make a difference.
The kids purchased themed bracelets, emojis, and pencils and wore gold or yellow on Friday, September 30th to support the cause.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 23/11/2012 (1732 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
RCMP have charged two people with a string of break-ins at businesses north of the city.
Sgt. Line Karpish said police have charged a 33-year-old Stonewall man and a 17-year-old boy from the RM of Rosser with five business and one residential break-in between Nov. 3 and 19.
The burglaries were in Stonewall, Teulon, Selkirk and Lac du Bonnet.
"Items stolen in these break-ins include liquor, food, two laptops and extensive damages to properties," said Karpish.
Three separate attempts to stop and pursue the suspects' pickup truck ended with them escaping Nov. 14, 15 and 19, Karpish said.
Thanks to evidence including video footage at some of the businesses, police arrested the two suspects Thursday at a residence on Road 8E in the RM of Rosser.
"Both were observed with property belonging to the homeowner while walking towards the pickup truck," Karpish noted.
They face seven counts of break and enter, seven counts of mischief and three counts of flight from police. They were remanded in custody.
The investigation is being led by the Stonewall RCMP in collaboration with the Teulon, Selkirk, and Lac du Bonnet detachments and with the assistance of the RCMP Winnipeg major crime unt.

Here's what happens when you summon Joss Whedon on twitter. Yes, you can do that, as ThoughtOtter discovered when she summoned Joss during a random twitter conversation.
@ThoughtOtter okay what us your bidding DON'T WISH FOR MORE WISHES I'm onto that shit
— Joss Whedon (@josswhedon) July 5, 2014
At first, ThoughtOtter asked for money, but then quickly checked herself and asked for more Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Joss could have given the expected answer with excuses involving time and money and other commitments, but instead he immediately delivered more Buffy. Looks like the makings of a whole new season of everyone's favorite slayer if you ask us.
See Joss's response after the break.

Horse Rescued From Sinking Mud
March 2, 2012 by staff
Horse Rescued From Sinking Mud, A horse is rescued after being stuck in the mud for hours on a beach in Australia.
A woman and her daughter were riding along Avalon beach, when the horse started sinking. The woman's daughter called for help. Nichole Graham says, "I was very lucky that my 7-year-old daughter was able to find Triple-A and get it organized."
It was a race against time to get him out before the tide came in. Rescue workers sedated the animal, then used a sling and tractor to pull him out of the mud. It took more than three hours. The 18-year-old horse was not hurt.

Do you have some old tires laying around that you'd like to repurpose into something new? This article is sure to inspire you! Of course, you could make a tire swing, but that's helpful only if you have just one tire, you actually need a swing, and you have a sturdy tree nearby. With these ideas, you can add some decor to your yard or garden and create some yard toys for the kiddos. If you have goats and would like to provide them with some fun activity (and amusement for you, of course!), then several of these ideas are perfect.

'Georgia Rule': Actresses Gone Wild
Friday, May 11, 2007
Just what we need least: a warm family comedy about child molestation.
That's "Georgia Rule," which combines battleship actresses of the "Steel Magnolias" variety, fall-down-go-boom comedy that was obsolete in the '30s, Lindsay Lohan's cleavage and rancid mouth and freckles (everywhere!) and some intergenerational fondling just for kicks.
It's a kind of "On Golden Pond" from hell, with Jane Fonda in the role of her late father, Henry; Felicity Huffman in the role of Jane Fonda, and Lohan in the role of that annoying kid who never made another movie but made the phrase "suck face" famous for a week. (His name was Doug McKeon, and he did make a few more movies, the last one in the role of "Detective.") It has the same emotional fraudulence as "On Golden Pond," a series of crass manipulations to give each of the three battleships a chance to maneuver to deliver a broadside to the audience. It's like an audition tape for performers well beyond the audition state.
The setting is Hull, Idaho -- well, the setting is Hollywood, California, pretending to be Hull, Idaho -- a picturesque small town where widow Georgia (Fonda) lives by the same unbending rules that have seen her through her whole life: each meal on time, early to bed, early to rise, repression unacknowledged but the powerful force in her life, emotions willed to nothingness. Into this narrow but ordered existence come her messy but rich daughter Lilly (Huffman) and her total train wreck of a granddaughter Rachel (Lohan), and though they arrive in a Mercedes S, they are each towing several invisible trailers full of issues.
Neurotic Lilly is married to Arnold, a wealthy San Francisco lawyer (played in high unction by Cary Elwes, who once played heroes), but she's never really recovered from her mother's lack of affection. She has grudges. But her more immediate problem is her child, Rachel. Rachel is 17, sexually aggressive, a chronic liar and seducer, a manipulator, an all-around nasty kid headed off to Vassar at the end of the summer. A la "On Golden Pond," the daughter wants to dump her child on her grandmother and take the summer off herself.
Well, the first problem is that Lohan isn't 17, she's 20 and she looks about 35. With her fully developed woman's body, her potty mouth, her makeup-slathered eyes and a wardrobe of frilly, feathery things that just keep slipping off, she looks like she's just in from a night of drunken clubbing. You wonder: What is this adult woman doing in this child's role? She should be running a brothel in Nevada, not working in a vet's office.
She has a couple of men trailing, tongues dragging, in her wake. One is Lily's ex-boyfriend turned town vegetarian and physician (a good way to end up in jail for practicing medicine without a license, bub) played by Dermot Mulroney. You can tell he's a good guy because he always wears plaid shirts. The other is a young Mormon boy, Harlan (played by Garrett Hedlund, Achilles's "cousin" Patroclus in "Troy"), who learns the ways of sin from Lohan's lollipop.
In fact, the movie has an ugly strain of anti-Mormonism throughout it, which I hope doesn't become a Hollywood tradition if Mitt Romney gets the Republican presidential nomination. It's so unfortunate and heavy-handed: The church is represented as extremely repressive for forbidding premarital sex, Mormon teenagers follow and spy on Rachel and Harlan, and the girls themselves are pasty, unpleasantly asexual beings who seem to have beamed down from a hipster's vision of small-town America in the '50s.
But the issue, as I say, is child molestation. Has Arnold been secretly molesting Rachel or not? That becomes the narrative issue, though it's hard to see the brassy Rachel as any sort of victim. But the movie, directed by Garry Marshall, really lets its fleet open fire: Fonda gets to attack Elwes with a baseball bat; Huffman gets a nice drunk scene, any actress's favorite; and Lohan gets to track down her Mormon persecutors and threaten to rape their boyfriends.
Georgia Rule (115 minutes, at area theaters) is rated R for language and sexual innuendo.

And this post is nothing new. As usual, I feel like crap, and as usual, I'm fed up of feeling like crap. I don't know where to start, or how to form a simple coherent... Thing.
I'm... Something? Down. Sad. Fed up. Miserable. Unhappy. I hate feeling crap so much - both physically and mentally - and the effort of putting on my brave face and trying to not be all those things... Well, it's almost as exhausting as everything else I have to do. I hate my brain. I hate my physiology. I hate my body. I hate the pain, the exhaustion, the constant feeling like shit... I hate that I feel like I am constantly struggling... Either to look after myself, or the house, or the family. I hate seeing stuff pile up, and after nagging for people to help, I do it all myself, and end up in more pain, feeling more exhausted... And the crap builds up again.
I hate thinking that people either don't believe me when I tell them how shit I feel, or they do believe me, but aren't bothered by the fact I feel so shit. I've given up for the most part. I tell people I'm "ok" or "tired" when inside I'm a mess, and my tiredness is pure, unadulterated exhaustion. I hate that people still don't get how much anxiety I deal with getting ready and going out. How the acts of being social, of travelling, of standing around talking... How all these things cause me actual physical pain, and my brain to scream and shout and batter on the inside of my skull.
A few hours of housework, a trip out, hanging with friends for a few hours, sorting stuff out... That might not sound like much to you, but that is a FULL ON busy week for me. I can go to bed at one in the afternoon after all this, and be a wreck in bed for 20 hours - only to have to pop-up and rejoin the world.
I feel so alone with all this in my head so much of the time. I can't talk about it much as I am sure people think I'm just droning on about poor tired me. People think I'm lazy as I would rather stay in. That I'm a slob as I wear lounge pants and not jeans. That I'm messy because I haven't brushed my hair or shaved. I'm not droning on, I'm trying to get people to understand how me (and people like me) feel when we are having a rough time. I'd rather stay in because the act of getting ready and going out hurts me both physically and mentally. I wear lounge pants as the material from my jeans hurts my skin, and they're heavy on my body. I haven't brushed my hair or shaved, because I simply don't have the strength in my arms to do my hair or facial hair after brushing my teeth or pulling on a tee shirt.
I would give almost anything to not feel this way. To not have people exchanging glances at one another when I try talking about being awake for 30 due to pain, despite being exhausted. To not have friends suddenly disappear on you because you know you've either bored them to death with your moaning, or because you didn't reply to a message and they think you're ignoring them. I want nothing more than to not feel like every anxiety and stress in my brain is going to suffocate me.
I hate how I am. I hate how I feel. I can't not be this way, and I can't not feel how I feel. I can't "think positive thoughts" and be better. I can't "just push though it" or "tough it out" or "man up" or whatever to not feel so shit.
If you don't get me, fine. But don't expect your not-getting-it will on any way change how I am - if you think it's just me being lazy, just me not putting in the effort, or not being bothered - that's your problem, not mine. Your thoughts & beliefs won't change how my body or brain react to anything.
I thought by the time I was 40, life would be easy, simpler, happier... I just feel like I've been stuck in the same shitty reoccurring dreams for seventeen years, and instead of life getting easier, and me coping with my issues, the opposite is true. Physically I'm useless, and mentally I'm just a bundle of neuroses and stress.
I'm sorry to sound like a broken record. I just don't know what else to do with myself.

Caring for Your Introvert
Re: movies, I like Enigma (2001), The Imitation Game (2014), No Regrets for Our Youth (1946). I usually watch movies long after they're released.
I like dark comedy, e.g., Keeping Mum (2005). Also REALLY dark comedy: Orphan Black, BBC America.
I'm pretty omnivorous, but maybe lean a little toward Thai, Mexican, and Chinese food.

Author | Noor Fathima Warsia | Tuesday, May 15,2007 8:54 AM
The end of soaps in India is a debate that has been under the scanner for a very long time. However, time and again, serials, especially 'K-serials', have delivered enough to show that soaps will continue to stay in India. Nonetheless, the opening numbers of some of the recently launched initiatives on television in the Hindi general entertainment category do tend to suggest that people in India are getting a tad bored of soaps.
Looking at some numbers, TAM Media Research shows that for the target C&S 4+ in the Hindi speaking markets, both of Star Plus' new shows 'Kasturi' and 'Meri Awaz Ko Mil Gayi Roshni' are hovering between the 2 plus and 3 plus TRP, even though 'Kasturi' did open at a 4 plus rating and 'Meri Awaz…' at almost 4.
Zee TV's 'Teen Bahuraaniyaan' too has been around the 2 plus and 1 plus mark. On the other hand, Sony Entertainment Television's 'Indian Idol' has delivered an opening 3.64 TRP in its first two episodes, and Zee TV's 'Saregama Challenger 2007' has delivered a TRP of 3.45 that was launched on the same day.
Media experts are of the opinion that in today's standards, the 3 plus numbers are good. It should be noted that while these format shows come in the weekend when the competition is lesser, the soaps are on the weekdays, where fragmentation increases a little everyday.
Rajneesh Chaturvedi, Business Director, Motivator, said, "Numbers are decreasing and some factors can be increasing fragmentation, shift of audience preferences, to differentiated kinds of shows and even change in the TAM panels. The soaps that were at one point giving 14 and 15 TRPs are now at 6 plus and that is a discouraging number. But that is where television is headed."
Manoj Malkani, Business Director, Carat Media, agreed. "Star Plus is seeing a drop in numbers. Many have said, time and again, that this is the end of soaps in India. But each time someone makes that comment, there are enough and more reasons to think otherwise."
Giving a thumbs up to the format show numbers, Chaturvedi said, "In the case of Sony, it really was the case where if this didn't work, then what would work!"
Even the opening numbers of 'Indian Idol' and 'Saregama Challenge 2007' is seen as positive, what experts are waiting to see is whether these shows can hold on to these numbers and grow them. A rating of 7 plus is not difficult with the right content – KBC-SRK at least is a proof of that.

Total sales outside of the US mainly in Europe and the Middle East region or EME grew 46% led by 48% growth in direct sales. This growth came from a combination of strong organic growth and from our Laprolan acquisition. International private label sales also improved, up 30% over the fourth quarter of 2010.Geographically 33% of our sales in the fourth quarter were in US with 67% of our sales outside the US compared to 41% and 59% last year respectively. This change is primarily driven by our April 1st acquisition of Laprolan based in the Netherlands. We are pleased with our performance, both domestically and abroad. Total sales for the fiscal year 2011 increased 28% on a reported basis to $52.9 million from $41.4 million in same period of last year. Foreign currency added 150 basis points with total sales growth in the period implying constant currency growth of 26.5%. Total fiscal year 2011 sales growth excluding the effects of foreign currency and our acquisition of Laprolan was 9%. Turning to direct sales, total global direct sales increased 43% year-over-year in the fourth quarter. Our US direct sales for the fourth quarter totaled $2.9 million versus $2.2 million last year or a gain of 29%. Our intermittent catheter line, which represents 48% of US direct sales in the fourth quarter, was 48% year-over-year in the fourth quarter. This growth was complemented by a 13% increase in male external catheters and 21% increase in Foley catheter sales. Read the rest of this transcript for free on seekingalpha.com

Five Baruch Frat Brothers Charged With Murder In 2013 Hazing Death
News| |
Deng died of a head injury in December 2013 after participating in the fraternity's hazing ritual called "glass ceiling." WFMZ reported:
The ritual had Deng blindfolded and carrying a 30-pound weighted backpack on his back. He then needed to push through a line of fraternity brothers who are trying to stop him from getting through. Police say the brothers "speared" and tackled Deng during this ritual. Deng, they say, complained about his head hurting and was eventually knocked unconscious. Deng was having trouble breathing but his fraternity brothers did not immediately call for help. Instead, they called their National Fraternity President, Andy Meng, who told them to hide all fraternity items. Some of the men also researched Deng's condition online.According to police, Deng was not taken to a hospital until nearly two hours later. He would never wake up. Deng had suffered repeated blunt force trauma to his head, torso, and thighs, according to the county coroner. Delay in treatment contributed to his death, the coroner also concluded. Along with the five who face murder charges, others in the fraternity face charges of involuntary manslaughter, aggravated assault, simple assault, hindering apprehension, hazing, and criminal conspiracy.

James Polson poses key questions ahead of the Brisbane Test.
1. The captain
The knowledge that he would likely inherit the most coveted job in Australian sport this summer would have been on Brad Haddin's mind ever since Michael Clarke's injury woes resurfaced last month. But will the added pressure help or hinder the gloveman in Brisbane?
2. The emotion
Australia's extraordinary victory in the first Test prompted some of the most jubilant scenes in recent memory. It remains to be seen whether the team will be able to ride the emotional wave throughout the gruelling Test schedule.
3. Chris Rogers
Dual failures on a batsman's paradise in Adelaide have only added to the pressure on the 37-year-old opener. The Victorian looked likely to make way for Phillip Hughes before his tragic death and the question is surely being asked if he is still the man to partner David Warner. In his favour is the likely absence of Clarke and the lack of a standout contender for his spot.
4. The team
Peter Siddle was struggling with illness in the first Test and is a long way from his best form, while Ryan Harris is under an injury cloud. Josh Hazlewood has been in stellar form in the shorter versions of the game, and with a fast, bouncy Gabba pitch in the offing, the young tearaway has surely never been closer to a Test call-up.
5. Nathan Lyon
It seems ridiculous to say that a bowler who has played 36 Tests and taken more than 120 wickets came of age in Adelaide as a match-winner, and it seems Australia have finally found a spinner for the long haul. The offie is one of the few spinners who relish the fast Gabba deck and will appreciate the extra bounce.
6. The Indians
It may be forgotten in the jubilation over Adelaide that the tourists came close to pulling off a remarkable victory. With captain M.S. Dhoni set to return, it will be an even stronger batting line-up in Brisbane. The other question is how you bounce back from the disappointment of losing a Test in which your acting skipper made two centuries.

Teen charged with stealing motorbike from the airport
A YOUTH charged with stealing a high-powered motorbike from a Dublin Airport car park has been remanded in custody.
The 17-year-old boy was sent to a detention centre for a week after he refused to obey a bail condition stating he would have to obey a nightly curfew.
He appeared at the Dublin Children's Court yesterday/today (wed) charged with stealing a UK registered BMW motorbike from Block-A of the short-term car park at the airport in the early hours of January 6th. He also has additional charges for driving without a licence or insurance.
Garda Kevin Nolan told Judge John O'Connor the north Dublin youth made no reply when he was charged.
The Garda asked for an adjournment to allow time to obtain directions from the DPP and he said there was no objection to bail with conditions the teenager would stay away from Dublin Airport and obey a curfew from 10pm to 8am. The court heard the teenager had been arrested for the motorbike theft at 1.05am on the M1 southbound at the airport. He also has an unrelated charge for possessing cannabis on a different date.
However, the teenager, who has not yet entered a plea to the charges, sighed and said he would not obey a curfew. The judge told him that if he abided by the condition it would be made less onerous at a later stage.
"I don't care, I don't want a curfew," the youth replied, and was told this meant he would be remanded in custody. His mother said there was no point in giving him a curfew he would not obey. The teenager again said he would not obey a curfew order.
He was given time to think about it after which his solicitor told the court the boy told him he would not keep to the curfew. Judge O'Connor remanded him in custody to appear again next week.

What does "et al" mean in a literature review?in the review of literature also found this:( Shemwell et al.,1998)
- print Print
- list Cite
1 Answer
The phrase "et al" in a bibliography or other citation simply means "and others." This phrase comes about as an abbreviation of a phrase in Latin. The original Latin phrase is "et alia." "Et" means "and" and "alia" means "others."
When you see this phrase in a bibliography or a citation, it can mean one of two things. If the work is being cited for the first time, the "et al" means that work has at least six authors. If the work has three to five authors, all of the authors are listed in the first citation. In later citations, only the first author's name is used with "et al" to show that there are more authors.
In your case, then, Shemwell was the first author named, but he or she had coauthors. This is why the "et al" is used.

Movies I love: All About Eve, Muriel's Wedding, Room With A View, Howards End, Beaches, Mary Poppins, wow--these are all girl movies, right? Never noticed that.
I like classical music, pop, and sometimes jazz. Really enjoy hearing it live but actually don't listen to music at home much.
As for food, I have a fantasy of cooking a meal together with my partner on a Friday night. That would be nice. Oh, wait, I just remembered, I don't know how to cook. Hmmm....guess that's why it's a fantasy. Oh, yeah, and I don't have a partner but I guess you knew that...
I try to spend some time every day being grateful for every thing I have in my life. Also, I try to have compassion for all people, even people I don't know or like.
Also, I think a lot about getting a dog but just can't--wouldn't be fair to the dog. I would consider dating someone I am not that into if he had a cool dog...is that so wrong?
I wonder if living in New Jersey is preventing me from finding a boyfriend. I wonder if the OK Cupid methodology is effective or if we can only really choose someone that we are compellingly attracted to by actually being in the same room with him.

Author | exchange4media News Service | Monday, Jan 01,1900 8:13 AM
CNBC has decided to terminate the agreement with Sony for ad sales ahead of the expiry of a three-year deal. Though a distribution deal with Sony is likely to run through till March 2003, Zee Turner is wooing CNBC to join its bouquet.
Once the break up is formalised over the next few days, Ad sales of CNBC, will be looked after by the Delhi-based Television Eighteen, a shareholder in CNBC India.
In India, Sony had been contracted two years ago to look after the ad sales and distribution of the business channel under a complex revenue sharing agreement, including a monthly minimum guarantee amount. Sony distributed and sold ad space on CNBC as a package with other Sony channels.
Any one hour's programming on CNBC offers about eight minutes of commercial time. While four minutes is hawked by CNBC Asia outside India, the rest is tied up within India by TV-18, which, in turn, had struck an alliance with Sony for the purpose.
Despite CNBC and Sony attempting to hammer out a new deal that envisages TV-18 not diluting its stake even while giving a commitment to keep the channel within the Sony bouquet for up to seven years, the fate of the CNBC-Sony distribution deal was uncertain beyond March 2003.
According to industry sources, keeping CNBC within its stable is important for Sony, which has plans to cobble together a bouquet of satellite channels to rival that of Star Network and Zee Turner.
Recently, Sony and Discovery Networks International announced a joint venture under which Discovery and Sony channels will be distributed together in the initial stage. The channels include Discovery, Animal Planet, Sony, SET Max, AXN and CNBC India.

9 New Meme Accounts to Follow For When You're Feeling a Type of Way
Because chances are the internet has felt it first.
In 2016, if you are feeling a way, any way really, chances are the Internet has felt it first. That's kind of the great thing about falling into your feelings about something; you can pretty much guarantee that you aren't alone. But knowing who to turn to after you've caught some feelings is important. It's like knowing you can go to Nasty Gal for your going out dress and Zara for something to wear to work. Focus is key. With the ever-expansive worldwide web, it's really important to be directional in your search. Catch your man cheating? There's a meme for that. Don't want to workout today? Meme! Have a Justin Bieber fetish that is borderline unacceptable? Yup, that's a meme too. Even if it's not currently happening to you, memes are still always relevant. I call them memories and they are important to catalog and share for later.
So, where does one go when FuckJerry and FatJewish have basically become the Costco of Instagram? Here are the best new meme accounts for all your emojiational requirements. If you find something that works for you, though, share with caution because a screenshot is forever.

Peak, Contango's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said "I caution everyone to keep in mind that these assumptions may be completely wrong. We may spend $167 million of our funds and find no reserves. Furthermore, our cost estimates could be substantially higher if we encounter hurricanes, drilling problems or mechanical problems. Drilling oil and gas wells in the Gulf of Mexico involves a high degree of risk. Please review our "Risk Factors" on Form 10-Q for the nine months ended March 31, 2012 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC")." We anticipate the Hercules 205 rig to be on location by the first week in July 2012 to spud our Ship Shoal 134 ("Eagle") prospect and the Spartan 303 rig to be on location by mid-July 2012 to spud our South Timbalier 75 ("Fang") prospect. We should know the results of both wells in the November time frame. In addition to our planned activities in the Gulf of Mexico, we have invested approximately $5 million to lease approximately 14,000 acres in the Tuscaloosa Marine Shale ("TMS"), a shale play in Louisiana and Mississippi, with an option to purchase approximately 10,000 additional acres. The TMS is an oil focused play and we intend to watch the play develop before we commit to drilling any exploratory wells. Our current production is approximately 83 million cubic feet equivalent per day ("MMcfed"). In addition, we have approximately $11.6 million invested with Alta in the liquids rich Kaybob area of the Duvernay Shale in Alberta, Canada, and $41.3 million invested with Exaro Energy III, LLC to further develop the Jonah Field in Wyoming. We remain debt-free and have approximately $115 million of cash on hand after having already paid approximately $50 million in Federal and State of Louisiana income taxes during our fiscal year that ends June 30. We have $40.0 million of unused borrowing capacity.

Buying a home is a common aspiration in Australia. However getting a foot in the market can be challenging especially at the moment with prices high across a number of our capital cities.
Is there financial sense in staying at home with the folks and making your first home a property investment to rent out?
Saving enough money for a deposit and then buying a home is a commonly held aspiration in Australia.
The urge to splurge on real estate is certainly being helped along by the surge in property prices in our capital cities.
This growth is a double-edged sword however, as while it benefits those who already own property, it's becoming harder for first home buyers to get a foot in the market.
According to the Australian Bureau of Statistics, the total value of property investment in our country per month is in excess of $13 billion.
Besides more opportunity to enjoy your mum's unbeatable cooking, is there financial sense in staying at home with the folks and making your first home a property investment to rent out?
If the rent that your tenants pay is more than your weekly home loan repayments, you will receive an additional income.
You can use this to cover your own living costs or make additional payments to your mortgage to achieve financial freedom faster.
Deciding on the amount of rent you charge to live in your investment property is a tough one - too high and you won't be able to find tenants, too low and you will miss out on potential profits.
Fortunately, a real estate agent can help you find the right balance.
There are a number of tax benefits that have been made available in an effort to make the upkeep of a rental property more affordable for investors.
According to the Australian Taxation Office, some of the expenses you can lay a claim on include:
There are many other potential tax deductions obtainable for property investors, none of which are available to owner occupier households.
The Australian Securities and Investments Commission asserts that while homes in regional and rural areas may not have the best capital gains, they can often provide good rental yields.
Within the capital cities, instead of searching for a home you want to live in, you should aim to purchase a property that suits the type of tenant in that area. Proximity to transport, amenities, schools and the current rental demand are all good places to start with your research.
There are a few downsides to purchasing an investment property as opposed to buying your first home to live in.
The First Home Owner Grant can be instrumental in getting you up on the property ladder, but it is only accessible to owner occupier households.
Furthermore, unless you've lived in your investment property for a sustained period of longer than 12 months, you will have to pay a capital gains tax when selling.
If you're undecided, talk to your financial advisor as they will be able to simplify the choice for you.

Phillip F. George Jr. Leads Entertainment Machine Companies in Akron, Ohio
Phillip F. George, Jr. serves as CEO of the entertainment machines supplier George Music Company, which is located in Akron, Ohio. In this role, he oversees a family-owned business that has delivered entertainment solutions to customers in Akron and the surrounding Northeast Ohio area since 1933. Currently, Phillip F. George, Jr. and his team provide restaurants, bars, educational institutions, and social organizations with advanced digital and Internet jukeboxes, as well as skill-based games equipment ranging from pool tables to high-definition video arcade units.
For over three decades, he also has served as CEO of Gennco Vending Corp. He leads a sales and technical service staff in the effective marketing and maintenance of coin-operated entertainment machines. Along with attending trade shows to acquire the latest products, he visits national and state industry conferences and consults with attorneys and lobbyists concerning regulatory compliance issues.
Outside of his professional duties, he enjoys playing racquetball and tennis, cycling on trails, swimming in the summer, and eating at restaurants that offer an impressive wine selection. As an active supporter of various charitable causes, he contributes to local food banks, Smile Train, and St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. He also volunteers to raise funds for organizations that serve military veterans.
The Selfless Elf Run in Akron, Ohio, Supports People in Need
Philip F. George Jr. is the CEO of the George Music Company in Akron, Ohio, a family-owned business that sells and services jukeboxes, arcade games, and other entertainment machines. In his off hours, Philip F. George Jr. makes time to support fundraisers for the local food bank in Akron, Ohio.
The Akron-Canton Foodbank, established in 1982, hosts fundraising events and distributes food and other necessities to those in need across northeast Ohio. One such fundraiser is the Selfless Elf Run, an annual holiday event that celebrated its third anniversary in December 2015. Participants don festive costumes and complete a 3.1-mile course that commences and terminates at the Foodbank. In addition to the race itself, the day features activities, snacks, and a visit from Santa Claus.
Contestants are encouraged to raise pledges for the run, and they can become a "VIP" by raising in excess of $250. The proceeds support the Foodbank. More than 2,000 Ohio residents have attended the Selfless Elf Run to date.
Frank Sinatra's No. 1 Singles
Philip F. George, Jr., is the chief executive officer of George Music Company, a well-established Akron, Ohio, entertainment company with a long and rich history. An avid fan of music, Philip F. George, Jr., spends his free time listening to classical performers like Frank Sinatra.
Frank Sinatra began his professional music career in 1935 and continued performing and recording until 1995, making for one of the longest careers in the history of American music. Over the course of six decades in the music industry, he lent his voice to nearly 130 Top 20 songs, including 70 Top 10 hits and 10 No. 1 singles.
Sinatra's first No. 1 single came in 1940 with "I'll Never Smile Again," written by Ruth Lowe and performed with Tommy Dorsey's Orchestra. The song spent 12 weeks at the top of the charts. His second No. 1 hit came two years later with "There Are Such Things," another Tommy Dorsey Orchestra vocal performance.
Sinatra scored a No. 1 single in each of the next five years, from "In the Blue of the Evening" in 1943 to the 1947 No. 1 release "Mam'selle." It would be nearly a decade before he experienced another chart topper, the 1955 single "Learning the Blues," and 11 years until "Strangers in the Night" reached No.1 in 1966. His final No. 1 recording, "Somethin' Stupid," came the following year, though dozens of additional Sinatra songs have become iconic through film, covers, and other forms of media.

A dramatic rise in the number of Hong Kong veterinarians has pushed the time it takes to resolve a complaint against the profession to about five years.
The number of registered vets has grown from 150 to 720 since the 1997 handover, with the number of complaints each year rising from eight in 1998 to about 50 in recent times.
The Veterinary Surgeons Board of Hong Kong, which disciplines surgeons in cases of misconduct, is struggling to reduce the backlog.
"There has been rising awareness of the importance of animal welfare and higher community expectations about the standard of veterinary service in Hong Kong," a Food and Health Bureau spokesman said.
"In tandem with the wider availability and utilisation of veterinary services in the territory, the number of complaints received [by the VSB] has risen markedly in recent years."
To tackle the chronic delay, the government announced proposals yesterday to amend the Veterinary Surgeons Registration Bill that would enlarge the board and streamline the complaints process. The plans will be put before the Legislative Council on Wednesday.
The board is seeking to increase the number of its members from 10 to 19, including six to be elected by the profession.
A panel of assessors is also to be established to decide which complaint cases go to an inquiry committee for a disciplinary hearing, bypassing the board.
"Definitely a major issue with [the board] since its set-up is the delay in processing complaints," said Jane Gray, chief veterinary surgeon and deputy director of veterinary services at the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals.
A complaint could sit for two years before those involved were advised that it had been dismissed, Gray said.
And if it goes to a disciplinary hearing, the process can take up to five years.
"By that time, it's hard to remember the details sometimes," she said. "It's a lot of stress for clients and vets as well."
She said most vets would consider six months to a year an acceptable processing time for complaints.
Gray, who has been practising in the city since 1991, welcomed both proposals.
"There's still a lot of work to be done, but this is a good step forward," she said.
Gray also said that by introducing elected members into the currently all-governmentappointed board, it would garner more respect for the body within the profession.
Many of the current members were not in general practice, she noted, compared to vets of good standing in general practice who would be more familiar with complaint issues and could give a valuable insight into how to make decisions.

My best one was in MW2 (don't have BOps yet). In the one russian villiage (with the big factory, don't remember the name) there was the in-construction building across from the factory. That was one of my fav sniping points. So I climb up like normal to find three guys sitting there right in front of me. I almost couldn't get my knife out fast enough.
I knife the two guys in the doorway directly infront of me, but the 3rd guy is sitting about 6 feet to the left. He hears me kill his two buddies, turns and gets a shot off with his sniper rifle, but misses me by a mile. I knife him in the face, do a victory dance, and get the hell out of there.

I kill number two with balistic knife, then #3 kills me with balistic knife.
However, the very second i was killed by number 3. #4 (my RL buddy who was sitting next to me) (we where playing anti up sticks and stones) anyways he tossed a tomahawk from next to the bus and hit my body after i had allready died.
Well, we are guessing that both the balisic knife and tomahawk hit me at the exact same time as the very moment that i spawned accross the map on the second floor inside the yellow house, a tomahawk (his) flew from my body where i jsut died and flew right into my lower back. we only know this happend because we did a replay in the theater. You can litterly see that weird matrix trail from where the tomahawk flew from my buddys toon, into my dead corpse then did a 180 degree durn around flying accross the map, through the house and into my ass killing me and taking me out of second place then the game ended. i was 100% ok with being tomahawked in that manor. I dont believe we will ever see a replay of this again.

Here is one of my personal ones with a little speed editing to get it loaded from xbox live... note the final kill, headshot. The crossbow to the mouth was awesome!
HAHA thanks!

Iv seen a double knife kill as the killcam in one in the chamber and a double kill with 1 bullet in one in the chamber. I was on the Fail end of both those cams but il accept it cos the looked awesome.
