Power of the Dollar is a classic and his best album. You can hear the hunger in his raps. Production was great. Lyrically he wasn’t limited to rapping about money, bitches, cars. This was before he became famous. Ghetto Quaran is an alltime classic Hip-Hop track.

Wedding Crashers (2005)

IMDB rating: 7.20

Plot: Divorce mediators John Beckwith and Jeremy Grey are business partners and lifelong friends who share one truly unique springtime hobby—crashing weddings! Whatever the ethnicity of the wedding party—Jewish, Italian, Irish, Chinese, Hindu—the charismatic and charming duo always have clever back stories for inquisitive guests and inevitably become the hit of every reception, where they strictly adhere to their proven rules of wedding crashing to meet and pick up women aroused by the very thought of marriage. At the tail end of another successful season of toasting brides and grooms, Jeremy learns that the daughter of Treasury Secretary William Cleary and his wife, Kathleen, is getting married in what is sure to be the Washington D.C. social event of the year. After infiltrating the lavish affair, John and Jeremy quickly set their sights on two bridesmaids, Claire and Gloria Cleary. With the lavish reception in full swing, Jeremy works his game plan to perfection in seducing Gloria, but John’s flirtation banter with Claire is unexpectedly impeded by her pompous, Ivy League boyfriend Sack. Having uncharacteristically fallen hard and fast for Claire, John convinces a resistant Jeremy to bend the crashing rules and accept an invitation to an extended weekend party at the Cleary family compound. Once at the palatial waterfront estate, John and Jeremy endure a multitude of comical mishaps at the hands of the dysfunctional members of the Cleary family, but also learn a few unexpected lessons about love and relationships.

City Of The Living Dead
City Of The Living Dead (1980)

IMDB rating: 6.20

Plot: The suicide of a priest marks the beginning of the end. We have this story seen through the eyes of two sorts of teams with the journalist Peter Bell and Mary, a girl who experienced a vision of the mentioned priest, in one hand and Gerry, a psychiatrist, and Sandra, one of his patients, in the other hand. With these four characters we are going to see a story that begins just with unusual and inexplicable things happening like the broke of a mirror without any logical explanation. But soon the death will be there and the only possible solution, of course, is to go deeper in the case of the priest before it’s too late. If they can’t end with the problem, the death bodies will never rest in peace again.

The Center Of The World Is…?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=coG1JV-_F YM
It has recently come to my attention that the holy Islamic city of Mecca (which is located in the wrongly-governed country of Saudi Arabia on the Arabian peninsula) has been discovered to be the geographic center of the Earth. This observation has been proven through the use of science, geography, math, and the mathematical golden Ratio.
Their are many articles that support this claim.
The first article shows how the holy city of Mecca is in the center of the Earth by the use of plate tectonics.
Plate tecs http://www.55a.net/firas/en1/index.php?o ption=com_content&view=article&i d=346:mekka-and-plate-tectonics&cati d=53:miscellaneous&Itemid=107
The second one also shows that Mecca is the center through the use of science. It also shows that Mecca has the oldest known rocks on the face of the Earth (volcanic basalt rocks which attest that Mecca was the first place to be created on Earth). It also certifies that Mecca is in fact spoken of in the Holy Bible.
http://www.55a.net/firas/en1/index.php?o ption=com_content&view=article&i d=94:mekka-is-the-center-of-the-universe &catid=61:historical&Itemid=90

The third article shows that when Muslims prostrate themselves to God (by placing their foreheads on the ground) it relieves their electromagnetic stress because they are facing the center of the Earth, Mecca.
Prostration before Allah http://www.55a.net/firas/en1/index.php?o ption=com_content&view=article&i d=203:prostration-before-allah-&cati d=42:medicine&Itemid=96
The fourth and final article that I have found shows how the Islamic city of Mecca is in the geographic center of the Earth by using the "Golden Ratio," a mathematically derived number which is 1.618…
Golden ratio http://www.55a.net/firas/en1/index.php?o ption=com_content&view=article&i d=409:the-golden-ratio-&catid=38:hum an&Itemid=94
And finally, for those of you who (like I) do not like reading that much, there is a video on utube that also correlates with the 4th article and shows that Mecca is the center by using this ratio as well, along with a few computer programs.
Video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=coG1JV-_F YM
This idea is not as far fetched as it seems. If you draw straight lines encircling a sphere (a basketball for example) they are bound to intersect at one place (the point of concurrency) which is then determined to be the center of the sphere.
So: do you know where these facts can be disproven? If so, please provide the source. And, try to answer this question without any impolite insults or comments. All thoughts are greatly welcomed.
Science, math and religion have always gone hand in hand in hand when it comes to Islam. Many scientific and mathematical miracles have been discovered in the Quran.
http://www.55a.net/firas/en1/
The Quran 1400 years ago (in a back then back-water desert in Arabia) summed up the big bang theory (how the universe was created) before it was discovered by modern scientists.
Quran: 21:30. Do not the Unbelievers see that the heavens and the earth were joined together (as one unit of creation), before we clove them asunder? We made from water every living thing. Will they not then believe?
It also describes how two seas do not intermingal because of a barrier made by surface tension. Quran: 55:19-21. He has let free the two Seas, meeting together: Between them is a Barrier which they do not transgress: Then which of the favors of your Lord will ye deny?
The process of how milk is made by cattle is also briefly stated. Quran: 16:66 And Allah sends down rain from the skies, and gives therewith life to the earth after its death: verily in this is a Sign for those who listen. And verily in cattle (too) will ye find an instructive sign. From what is within their bodies between excretions and blood, We produce, for your drink, milk, pure and agreeable to those who drink it.
Besides this, the Quran also accurately says that the Dead Sea is the lowest point on Earth. "A crucial stage of the war fought between the Byzantine (Romans) Empire and the Persians, when the Byzantines were defeated and lost Jerusalem around 613 AD, had taken place at the Dead Sea basin , which is situated at the intersection point of the lands belonging to Syria, Palestine, and Jordan. The "Dead Sea", lying 395 meters below sea level, is the lowest region on Earth. The altitude of the Dead Sea could only be measured with modern measurement techniques. Before that, it was impossible for anyone to know that it was the lowest region on the surface of the Earth. Now note this verse of Koran: "Elif, Lam, Mim. The Romans have been defeated in the lowest land, but after their defeat they will themselves be victorious in a few years’ time. The affair is God’s from beginning to end." Q 30:1-4] Also at the end, "the victory of the Romans," proclaimed by God in this verse, miraculously came true. Around seven years after the revelation of this verse, in December 627 AD, a decisive battle
between Byzantium and the Persian Empire was fought at Nineveh. And this time the Byzantine army unexpectedly defeated the Persians.
Their are more miracles (such as how the embryo looks) which have been discovered in the Quran.
Math has also played a part in the Quran.

Mathematical Miracle of the Quran. Simple facts. Like the Quran itself, the Quran’s mathematical Miracle ranges from the very simple , to the very complex. The simple facts are those observations that can be ascertained without using any tools. The complex facts require the assistance of a calculator or a computer. The following facts do not require any tools to be verified, but please remember they all refer to the original Arabic text: 1- The first verse 1:1 known as "Basmalla" consists of 19 letters. 2-This verse was revealed to Muhammed after 74:30, which states "Over it is 19". not a coincidence. 3-The Quran consists of 114 suras, which is 19X6.
4-The total number of verses in the Quran is 6346, or 19X334 (6234 numbered verses and 112 unnumbered verses (Basmalla). 6234+112=6346. notice also that 6+3+4+6= 19 5-The Basmalla occurs in the Quran 114 times, despite its conspicuous absence from Sura 9 (it occurs twice in Sura 27) and 114 = 19 X 6 6-From the missing Basmalla of Sura 9 to the extra Basmalla of Sura 27, there are precisely 19 Suras. 7-It follows that the total of the sura numbers from 9 to 27 9+10+11+12….. . +26+27) is 342, or 19X 18 8-This total (342) also equals the number of words between the two Basmallas of sura 27. and 342 = 19X18 9-The famous first revelation (96:1-5) consists of 19 words. 10-This 19-worded first revelation consists of 76 letters, & 76=19X4 11-Sura 96, first in the chronological sequence, consists of 19 verses. 12-This first Chronological sura is placed atop the last 19 suras. 13-Sura 96 consists of 304 Arabic letters and 304 = 19X16 14-The last revelation (Sura 110) consists of 19 words.
15-14 different Arabic letters, form 14 different sets of "Quranic Initials" (Such as A.L.M., of 2:1) and prefix 29 suras.These numbers add up to 14+14+29=57 19 X 3 16-The total of the 29 sura numbers where the Quranic initials occur is 2+3+7….+50+68=822, and 822 +14 (14 sets of initials)=836 =19X44 17-Between the first intialed Sura (Sura 2) and the last intialed Sura (Sura 68) there are 38 un-initialed suras , 38=19X2 18-Between the first and last initialed sura there are 19 sets of alternating "initialed" and "uninitialed" Suras, 19-The Quran mention 30 different whole numbers throughout, 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,19,20,30,40,50,60,70,80,99,100,200,300,1000,2000, 3000,5000,50,000, & 100,000. The sum of these numbers is 162146 = 19X8534 The following 2 facts may need some help with a calculator. 20- The word God (ALLAH) occurs throughout the Quran in its 114 Suras 2698 times and 2698= 19X142. 21-The number of verses where the word God occurs add up to 118123 also a multiple of 19,
a multiple of 19, = 19X6217 22-The Quran’s dominant message is that there is only "ONE GOD" The word ‘One", in Arabic "Wahid" in reference to God occurs 19 times throughout the Quran. 23-The word "Wahid" itself, (one) has a numerical value of 19. W=6, A=1, H=8, D= 4. These are a well known values. 24-The word "Quran" occurs in the Quran 58 times, with one of them referring to "another Quran" in 10:15, therefore, if excluded, the frequency of "this Quran" in the Quran is 57, or 19X3 25- The first Pillar of Islam is stated in 3:18 as "La Elaaha Ella Hoo".(There is no other God besides Him). This most important expression occurs in 19 suras.

Thanks!
For those of you who don’t exactly understand the question, I am talking about the geographical center (the surface, the center of the surface area) and not the center of the sphere. Just the outside layer.
Also, I am talking about modern times, not about what was thought in the past. MODERN science, not old-fassioned science has seemed to prove this point under discussion to be correct.
Just check out the video. I have written an interogative statement in my question: "So: do you know where these facts can be disproven? If so, please provide the source." is the question…


What are you on? Tell me where the center of the surface of a basketball is. It all depends on where you are measuring from. And that is only if you have some specific points in mind on the surface of the basketball. Generally a sphere does not have a center on the surface. I believe the center statements in the Qur’an were written when people thought the world was flat.

Forget about the Qur’an it is wrong and no matter how much propaganda you put out, a rational person can see through it.

Alfred Isac | Jan 30, 2010


NEWSFLASH// This Just In: The world is NOT flat, it is an oblate spheroid therefore the center of the Earth is thousands of miles below the surface, not in Mecca.
?Machine Head? | Jan 30, 2010


I’m sorry to tell you that the center of the Earth is about 3000 miles below you.
The Notorious Cap'n Sinjari | Jan 30, 2010


The centre of the Earth is a solid sphere of metal, mainly composed of nickel. It remains a solid at the immense temperature due to incredible pressures. This is the inner core.

The inner core is surrounded by the outer core - similar stuff but, if memory serves, with more iron in it. As the pressure is lessened this is liquid metal.

The centre of the Earth is its core, not some holy city!
Entropy and Pain | Jan 30, 2010


Technically, the center of the Earth would be in the middle of the inner core. When you’re talking about the surface of the Earth, any given point could be the "center of the earth" - any point and it’s 180

Any tips on how to stay calm as a goalie?
I’m an experienced hockey goaltender. I’m 16, I’ve played over 10 seasons, collected a bunch of awards, and played in provincial tournaments. But one of my issues that still haunts me is my lack of composure. I find myself getting too tight, or moving too much. When a rush comes down from the other team, I tend to get worked up sometimes. And I’ve let in some bad goals because of it. No matter what I do, I can’t stop it. When it happens and the rush is gone the other way, my heart is usually left pounding.

I’m healthy and a fit weight. I eat 3-4 hours before a game. I drink a gatorade 2 hours before and an energy drink 30 minutes before. If that helps.

I was wondering if anyone could share some tips on how to stay calm in the crease?
Thanks. =]


Just remember that you’re playing a game. You’re not performing brain surgery or curing cancer.

Hockey is a game, and games are supposed to be fun.

And remember that goalies aren’t perfect. If they were, every game would end in a 0-0 tie.

Lady Wildcat | Feb 04, 2010


dont drink the energy drink cuz it leaves you jittery and jumpy and also when that happens only concentrate on saving the puck dont worry about anything else
LISTEN TO ME | Feb 04, 2010


You gotta raise your confidence. Period.
If you’re good, you’re team wont care if you let in a bad goal, because they know you’re better than that. Stimulate your confidence before a game. There’s some drills on Google how to do that. What I do is I listen to music before a game to control my vibe. See where Im gettin at? Hope this helps.

Raulito | Feb 04, 2010


The entire position is all about your mentality. For me personally, I would take my iPod into the locker room with me and close my eyes about 15-20 minutes before hitting the ice and listen to some relaxing music (Sublime, etc.). Usually coaches aren’t talking to you at that point anyways, so it is your time to personally prepare yourself and visualize what will be happening on the ice.

Also, when you hit the ice, skate as hard as you can and take warm-ups seriously. The more nerves you get out during warm-ups, the better relaxed and focused you’ll be during the game.

Don’t be afraid to joke around during warm-ups, too. If a player has a terrible shot or you make a big save, give him some flak. Chances are everyone is a little tight and lightening the mood is good for everyone. Sure, the game is serious, but keeping it loose can help with the nerves.

Also, the biggest thing as a goalie is short-term memory loss. If you give up an early goal, forget about it. You can’t do anything about it. Just have the mentality that you’re not going to give up another.

Routine.

Time time time. I know 10 seasons, but you are always playing better and better opposition as you get older. So in a way you are still facing new challenges/shots/skills/intelligence.

Also you let in some bad goals right? But do you remember when you got aggressive and moved to much and stopped the puck? NO you remember the time it didnt work. While you should try and stay within your own personal bounds of aggresiveness/position etc . . . no matter whether you are to aggressive and move around or stay put youre always gonna think you should have been more or less when the other team hits twine.

What do you think of my story so far?
I’m writing a short story titled "The Queen of Reninia" and the story is based on one of my favorite coworkers who is my mentor/role model.
What do you think of my story so far?

Queen Latasha Connell ruled the kingdom of Reninia with an iron fist and gentle heart. She was considered one of the best dressed and positive queens in all the world.Latasha always had a smile on her face. Even when she wasn’t showing off her neat row of pearly whites her expression often remained calm and suttle. She was so mellow that people who were sad or stressed out would begin to feel relaxed after spending a few minutes with her.
Kammy Lynn was Latasha’s assistant. Kammy Lynn considered it an honor to work for the great,mighty, and awesome Queen Latasha. She enjoyed being under her wing and she looked up to Latasha as a role model.Kammy Lynn was one of the only workers allowed in Latasha’s bedroom besides Emmem,the chef. Kammy Lynn took pride in keeping Latasha’s room and closet neat. She loved being in her capacious closet for it was filled with beautiful garments. Jeans,khakis,blouses,tees,evening gowns,and pajamas hung from satin hangers. Stillettos,boots,dress flats,pumps,casual shoes,and gym shoes were displayed on the glass shelves. Purses in all shapes and sizes hung from gold hooks.
More than anything Kammy Lynn wanted to accompany Queen Latasha to a party.Latasha would go out twice a week for a night of fun. Latasha would choose 4 of her workers to accompany her for a night of fun. The workers would gather before Queen Latasha and she would pick 4 of them to go out for a night on the town.Latasha had to approve of their outfits and hairstyles before they could set out with her.
"That’s a nice outfit.It compliments you."
"Oh no that hairstyle doesn’t do a thing for you.Please go fix your hair."
"Love the shoes."
After she approved of their attire, they would set out with her to one of the local pubs or clubs. Her favorite spot was "The Coconut Hut Pub." A few of her friends would meet her and 4 of her workers there and they would dance, laugh, joke, talk, wolf down beverages, and enjoy tantalizing foods.Kammy Lynn wanted to party with her hero. She hadn’t yet been picked to go out for a night of fun.


i only liked the 1st sentence. 2 b honest it sounded a lil obsessive. completely obvious. its a lil short of terrible. idk where ur going w/ this. but it has potential if it wasnt a homage 2 someone.
