He calls off the wedding with Kate and she nervously boards a plane to get him back. She ends up sitting next to the petty French thief Luc Teyssier (Kevin Kline).

What is going through my friends mind when she does this.,..?
I know this one girl who tells me she hates this one guy and thought he was ugly and a looser. I think he is too. Yet she went out of her way to ask him on a date a few times, and even french kissed him and grabbed his you know at a club when she was drunk. But yet continues to tell me how she doesn’t like him. This confuses me. What does this mean? Does she really like him or not? What do you think is going through her mind?


She is trying to make you think she doesn’t like him and you said your self you agree he is ugly and a looser. She likes him a lot and because he is ugly and a looser (she knows you feel this way)she wants to cover up her feelings so she feels she is still in the in crowd with you. When I was in school the same thing happened to me. I was smart. I could see right through her. She may think you might like him so she says she doesn’t to throw you off of her real game feelings. Have you ever heard of when a person is drunk the truth comes out? Yes? Now you know the answer.

I think she likes him. My best friend had some guy in here math class that she told me she hated all the time well now they just had there wedding so I think she likes him lol
amberDawm | Feb 05, 2010


she likes him and is afraid that you might like him to…maybe you should ask her
lata | Feb 05, 2010


She does like him but doesn’t want to admit it because of fear what her friends would say. Maybe she’s scared of her friends not liking him, so she pretends she doesn’t. She’s just insecure about liking someone where others might not be able to see the attraction.

Do Hollywood producers/directors notice that they do this?
So I noticed that a lot of ‘dual’ parts have opposing signs…do they do this on purpose or is it just coincidence? I think it’s a bit of both haha

What’s so ’selective’ about stating the obvious? If it’s there it’s there. I wasn’t being very ’selective’ about anything, and if I had a measly two or three examples maybe you’d have a point there, but I don’t, and I’m sure I’m forgetting some.


That’s really interesting, I’ve never thought about that before.

I’m guessing it’s some of both too (:

PURELY coincidence.

i think they now… opposing signs always make the best duos to me…
because they are so diffrent, but usually have the same passions…
hence my best friend is a aquarius…

but we are like night and day….i am a leo

You are using selective thinking on this. No doubt it will be just as easy to find any combination.

Selective thinking is the process whereby one selects out favorable evidence for remembrance and focus, while ignoring unfavorable evidence for a belief. This kind of thinking is the basis for most beliefs in the psychic powers of so-called mind readers and mediums. It is also the basis for many, if not most, occult and pseudoscientific beliefs.

Can you please read my story…what do you think?
Please read this part first, or this won’t make sense. Sorry, it’s really long, but could you please read at least some of it and tell me what you think? I’m going to edit out some of the too long descriptions as in "he said BLANKily, as he BLANK BLANK", like someone said. I did it a bit, I’ll do it later.
Please could you give only constructive criticism, I’m 14 years old. If you could say the good parts too so I don’t change them?
In the first post (the other question) I copied and pasted wrong, so ignore the start, and go to additional details.

IMDB rating: 5.70

Plot: The last time we saw Evan Baxter (Steve Carell), he was being tormented by rival Bruce Nolan onscreen, live from their Buffalo TV station. But as time passed and Evan has made up with Bruce, he’s gone onto bigger and better things. Newly elected to Washington D.C. as a congressman, Evan has left Buffalo, New York in pursuit of a greater calling. But that calling isn’t serving in the illustrious ranks of America’s politics, but being summoned by the Almighty himself (Morgan Freeman), who has handed Evan the task of building a new ark, much as Noah did before. With time passing by and his family belittled by Evan’s newfound realization, Evan will have to do the work that God has given him in what promises to be an unusual adventure for a man who just wanted to serve his country, might actually be serving humanity.

Bruce Almighty VS Evan Almighty?

evan almighty was less of an adult comedy
it was a family comedy

Was the movie Planet of the apes some type of prophecy?

It was supose to be a funny, Mr. prophetic.


Yeah, that sequels suck and always will.

timelady | Jan 13, 2010


It sure was!
Likely a wrong one, just like all except the lucky ones.
duke_of_urls | Jan 13, 2010


The planet of the apes was prophecy regarding another planting of Gd on this planet on day six as written in Genesis. Trees, animals then peoples, then Adam.

If one was to travel through a space and time zone, one could potentially view the planting. The tower of Babel was to ‘prevent’ inter action with other may be hidden findings. The celestial has been viewed by many great civilizations and we were given the Prophecy for the time period coming of the great tribulation for a celestial being will come and perform signs and wonders and set up himself as greater than god called the false prophet pseudoApostle gog beast from the earth who will rule the whole earth along with ten worldwide leaders for 44 1/2 months soon.

Case holding testimony from criminal trial can be used as against interest of party opponent in civil trial?
I am Federal Court her and I’m dealing with Fed Rule of Evidence 801. I am P and I want to offer my D’s testimony from a previous criminal prosecution against him. There was a conspiracy to commit fraud-like acts and my current D turned state’s witness on his co-conspirators and testified that he was engaged in a conspiracy to commit fraud-like acts. Now I’m suing him civilly for those acts and I want to admit his testimony against him as a party-opponent admission under not excluded as hearsay under 801. I know I can do this but I want a Federal case with similar facts where it was done. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thank you in advance.

Note: there is no kind of legal advice being given or requested or received here. This is just about people helping people find cases that might help them do whatever it is they’re doing.
Thank you for your response, Richard.

The thing is that I don’t want to call the defendant to the stand so I want to use 802(2)(a) as you suggest. I was just hoping someone could point me to a case with similar facts to mine (previous criminal trial where current defendant was a witness but not a defendant, current civil trial, federal court) so that I have some concrete backup on this.

Again, thank you for your response and I will definitely mark it as the ‘best answer’ unless someone else miraculously comes along with a response of the specificity that I’m indicating now that I need.


This is such a clear cut issue that you probably won’t find case law on it, because there is no legal debate that a court would need to issue a published opinion on.

In a civil case he has no protection against self-incrimination. You simply call him to the stand and ask him the same questions that he was asked in the criminal trial. If he gives a different answer than he did in that trial then his testimony is admissible as a prior inconsistent statement, and he also faces criminal charges for perjury.

While you ‘could’ also seek to admit his testimony under 801(2)(a) – which would also be a clear cut issue because the language of the rule is perfectly clear in itself – live testimony is always preferable.

Richard
