Jindabyne
Jindabyne (2006)

IMDB rating: 7.10

Plot: Stewart Kane, an Irishman living in the Australian town of Jindabyne, is on a fishing trip in isolated hill country with three other men when they discover the body of a murdered girl in the river. Rather than return to the town immediately, they continue fishing and report their gruesome find days later. Stewart’s wife Claire is the last to find out. Deeply disturbed by her husband’s action, her faith in her relationship with Stewart is shaken to the core. She wants to understand and tries to make things right. In her determination to help the victim’s family Claire sets herself not only against her own family and friends but also those of the dead girl. Her marriage is taken to the brink and her peaceful life with Stewart and their young son hangs in the balance. The story of a murder and a marriage. A powerful and original film about the things that haunt us.

Snow activities other than skiing?
I’m taking my bf to "see" some snow for the weekend. We’re thinking of staying at Jindabyne, NSW. We’re not planning on skiing or snowboarding due to very limited budget.

What other activities are there? What about tobogganing?
Any ideas?


You could try XC skiing – bushwalking on skis. Wilderness Sports and Paddy Pallin in Jindabyne will hire gear. It is a lot cheaper than lift served sliding.

If there is enough snow Perisher has a tube park, where you slide down a track on an inner tube sort of thing.

Tobogganning is downright dangerous. There is nothing between the base of your spine and a hard place.

At Thredbo you can ride the chair to the top and fool around. Dress warm.

to me it seems like there’s only skiing and snowboarding because when I went with my family 6 months ago…there were only those so we decided to leave..

If you can budget for it, plan to do skiing or boarding for a coulple -3 days or so at least. It will make the experience of seeing and experiencing snow soo much more worthwhile. If you are going all the way down to that area then you might as well spend a little bit more for it. Why do you think there are so many ski fields and so few tobogganing fields in the world?? they are great sports and sooooo much fun!!!!
however, if budgeting and good times are not your thing then try using garbage bags as a toboggan, or ice skating, or even mountain biking in the snow is pretty spectacular.
Have fun <3 the snow!

You would have to travel to Bullocks Flat then take the Snow Tube up to Perisher and on to Blue Cow you can Snow Board or just watch others it is a great day to spend. The train or snow tube is in itself just fun to travel on ~~

planet earth (poem) by michael jackson?
here is the poem

Planet Earth, my home, my place
A capricious anomaly in the sea of space
Planet Earth are you just
Floating by, a cloud of dust
A minor globe, about to bust
A piece of metal bound to rust
A speck of matter in a mindless void
A lonely spacship, a large asteroid
Cold as a rock without a hue
Held together with a bit of glue
Something tells me this isn’t true
You are my swweetheart soft and blue
Do you care, have you a part
In the deepest emotions of my own heart
Tender with breezes caressing and whole
Alive with music, haunting my soul.
In my veins I’ve felt the mystery
Of corridors of time, books of hisotry
Life songs of ages throbbing in my blood
Have danced the rhythm of the tide and flood
Your misty clouds, your electric storm
Were turbulent tempests in my own form
I’ve licked the salt, the bitter, the sweet
Of every encounter, of passion, of heat
Your riotous color, your fragrance, your taste
Have thrilled my senses beyond all haste
In your beuaty, I’ve known the how
Of timeless bliss, this moment of now
Planet Earth are you just
Floating by, a cloud of dust
A minor globe, about to bust
A piece of metal bound to rust
A speck of matter in a mindless void
A lonely spacship, a large asteroid
Cold as a rock without a hue
Held together with a bit of glue
Something tells me this isn’t true
You are my swweetheart gentle and blue
Do you care, have you a part
In the deepest emotions of my own heart
Tender with breezes caressing and whole
Alive with music, haunting my soul.
Planet Earth, gentle and blue
With all my heart, I love you.

Can someone tell you what this poam means?


It’s a poem questioning what is Planet Earth

Fortress
Fortress (1993)

IMDB rating: 5.40

Plot: In a futuristic USA, it’s forbidden to give birth to more than one child for each woman. As usual, you can escape to Mexico to avoid the authorities in USA, which is exactly what John and Karen Brennick were trying to do when Karen is pregnant with her second child (their first child was born dead). When they think they have made it they are discovered and put to prison (for 31 years), a modern prison called the “Fortress” where the prisoners are controlled by lasers, neutron-cannons, cameras, mind-scanners and electronic pain-causing devices in their stomachs. With those odds, John still plans to escape with his wife.

thers no deepr meaning, no theme, nothing tat could be worth analyzing i think.. its just setting description, does anyone no what i cuold analyze for this…

And Raveloe was a village where many of the old echoes lingered, undrowned by new voices. Not that it was one of those barren parishes lying on the outskirts of civilisation — inhabited by meagre sheep and thinly-scattered shepherds: on the contrary, it lay in the rich central plain of what we are pleased to call Merry England, and held farms which, speaking from a spiritual point of view, paid highly-desirable tithes. But it was nestled in a snug well-wooded hollow, quite an hour’s journey on horseback from any turnpike, where it was never reached by the vibrations of the coach-horn, or of public opinion. It was an important-looking village, with a fine old church and large churchyard in the heart of it, and two or three large brick-and-stone homesteads, with well-walled orchards and ornamental weathercocks, standing close upon the road, and lifting more imposing fronts than the rectory, which peeped from among the trees on the other side of the churchyard: — a village which showed at once the summits of its social life, and told the practised eye that there was no great park and manor-house in the vicinity, but that there were several chiefs in Raveloe who could farm badly quite at their ease, drawing enough money from their bad farming, in those war times, to live in a rollicking fashion, and keep a jolly Christmas, Whitsun, and Easter tide. – Silas Marner by George Eliot


Your analysis could be about what the village is telling you about the people who live there.

"And Raveloe was a village where many of the old echoes lingered, undrowned by new voices."
—>It’s an older village. You could say the landscape seems untouched by time. It is a reasonable conclusion that the villagers are traditional, and that while there are newer customs, older traditions reign supreme.

"Not that it was one of those barren parishes lying on the outskirts of civilisation…on the contrary, it lay in the rich central plain of what we are pleased to call Merry England, and held farms which, speaking from a spiritual point of view, paid highly-desirable tithes."
—>It’s an older, more traditional village, but they keep up with the times and know what’s going on in the world. The village is in the middle of England, and thus not far from ‘the action’. The land is rich and so are the farmers. Obviously, considering the time period, they are religious and tithe as required.

"But it was nestled in a snug well-wooded hollow, quite an hour’s journey on horseback from any turnpike, where it was never reached by the vibrations of the coach-horn, or of public opinion."
—>It was near enough to the cities and main roads for villagers to come and go, but far enough away to deter unwanted visitors. Hidden away, it is a quiet village that did not need to worry about people from larger, more industrial cities looking down on them.

Just continue with the rest of the passage. You should be able to get at least a paragraph from every piece of the passage.

will it be busy on blackfriday?


Disneyland is busy everyday. Black Friday is traditionally one of their lighter days as far as crowds go. But this year, might be busier than past Black Fridays, because in addition to kids being out of school, Southern California is in the middle of a heatwave.
?Donna? | Nov 26, 2009


I have actually heard that Blak Friday is the busiest day of the year for Disneyland.
Mrs.Lopez | Nov 26, 2009


probably not cause even though its gonna be black friday disneyland is still expensive plus people usually go to malls and department stores on black friday
Joey | Nov 26, 2009


Black Friday isn’t a bad time to go to Disneyland because the rest of the people will be buying stuff at Walmart and Best Buy and other places. The worst time to go is at Halloween time for some reason.
Ryan | Nov 27, 2009


No it will be i’m sure. Tomorrow is a Friday and some people who usually work Friday’s (besides department stores) get that day off so why not go to Disneyland with the family on a day off? And the sales for Black Friday only last for a few hours anyway, most being in the morning, giving people who want to go to Disneyland the chance to get their deals early and then head to Disneyland. I think it might be a little light of people in the morning time, but when it hits night time there’s gunna be more people.

I have my recipe and I know how long to cook the turkey but I have a few other questions.

I am also making homemade stuffing and green bean casserole. My turkey will take between 2 1/2 and 3 hours to cook. The stuffing will take 35-45 minutes and the casserole will take about 20. I can put the stuffing and casserole in at the same time but nothing will fit in with the turkey as I have a fairly small oven.

What should I cook first? I was thinking the turkey? How long will the turkey stay hot if I make it first and then dont serve it for an additional 45 minutes to an hour? It is a 12 pounder.

I already prepared the desserts so I dont have to worry about baking those too.

Oh, and Im making fruit punch with sherbert ice cream. How long ahead of time should I prepare that?

Sorry its so many questions here, I thought I had everything planned out so well. This is all the last minute stuff I am thinking of! Ah, help!
Im using an oven bag for the turkey, if that makes any difference…


You should cook the turkey first. It is good to let it rest anyway after cooking. This lets all of the juiced sink back in, You can wrap it with some aluminum foil to keep it warm.
Amrita | Nov 26, 2009


Have a few drinks.
speedgeek | Nov 26, 2009


Do the stuffing and casserole 1st then reheat them. Or you could do the turkey 1st, carve it, & keep it in the oven for part of the time while cooking the stuffing and casserole.
Remember, the turkey will probably take linger than expected.
Forget the punch, you’re over working yourself.
Good Luck, take time to enjoy your food.
