Arturo gets advice, encouragement, and an occasional check from H.L. Mencken, so he keeps writing and he keeps seeing Camilla. But, he’s mean to her for no apparent reason, so the relationship sputters. A housekeeper from back East suggests a way out of his jealously and fears. “Camilla Bandini”: is it in the cards? |

Please find this quote from Waiting for the Barbarians by Coetzee? washing,priestly cleansing,intervention…?
" ‘Have you a minute to spare?’ I say. We stand in the gateway, with the guard in the background
pretending not to hear. I say : ‘I am not a young man any more, and whatever future I had in this
place is in ruins.’ I gesture around the square, at the dust that scuds before the hot late summer
wind, bringer of blights and plagues. ‘Also I have already died one death, on that tree, only you
decided to save me. So there is something I would like to know before I go. If it is not too late.,
with the barbarians at the gate.’ I feel the tiniest smile of mockery brush my lips, I cannot help it.
I glance up at the empty sky. ‘Forgive me if the question seems impudent, but I would like to ask :
How do you find it possible to eat after wards, after you have been…working with people? That is a
question I have always asked myself about executioners and other such people. Wait! Listen to me a moment longer, I am sincere, it has cost me a great deal to come out with this, since I am terrified of you, I need not tell you that, I am sure you are aware of it. Do you find it easy to take food
after wards? I have imagined that one would want to wash one’s hands. But no ordinary washing would be enough, one would require priestly intervention, a ceremonial of cleansing, don’t you
think? Some kind of purging of one’s soul too–that is how I have imagined it. Otherwise how
would it be possible to return to everyday life–to sit down at table, for instance, and break bread
with one’s family or one’s comrades.’ "
I put the whole paragraph so it would be easier to find.
I just need to know the page number and/or chapter from which the aforementioned quotation came from
Thanks!

Where can I watch Endless Waltz (GW) English Dub online?
I want to watch the Gundam Wing movie "Endless Waltz" that’s NOT the special edition version (meaning I don’t want the one that plays "Last Impression" at the end instead of "White Reflection".) Since basically all the special edition does is take away or change the music at certain parts, I think the non-special edition changes were better.
aka I just really want to watch the version of Endless Waltz that played on Toonami all those years ago… I’m nostalgic for it.
I know the special edition version is on Youtube, but can anyone tell me if any sites host the non-special edition version? Preferably English Dubbed. Thanks.

IMDB rating: 4.90 Plot: In 1983, Senator Vernon Trent is running a high-profile re-election campaign. Los Angeles cop Mason Storm videotapes a meeting where Trent hires killers to kill his opponent so he won’t lose the election. When Mason’s cover is blown, he gets away temporarily, but when he calls in this information to his partner Kevin O’Malley, he is overheard by corrupt cops who work for Trent. On his way home, Mason stops at a liquor store to pick up some champagne to celebrate his undercover coup with his wife Felicia and his 5-year-old son Sonny. 5 thugs come into the store with guns and blow away the cashier, and Mason kills the thugs. At home, Mason tucks Sonny in, and Mason and Felicia open the champagne. The corrupt cops who overheard Storm’s call to Kevin go to Storm’s house and start firing their guns. Felicia is killed, and Sonny is missing and presumed dead. Mason himself, declared dead at the hospital, revives only to remain in a coma. Kevin enlists the help of a doctor to keep Mason’s survival a secret until he can recuperate and give information on his assailants. 7 years later, in 1990, Kevin has been forced off the LAPD, with Trent and his men now running the show. Mason is in a coma center under the alias of “John Doe,” and he’s being cared for by nurse Andrea “Andy” Stewart. Mason wakes up from his 7 year coma, and takes some time to recover. After recovering, Mason is reunited with Sonny, who is now 12-years-old, and Mason plans his revenge on Trent. |

Looking for framed stories in movie plots–specifically:?
Boys N the Hood, Ray, Notorious, Michael Jackson’s This Is It, Lebron James’ More than a Game, 50 Cent: Get Rich or Die Tryin, and Why Did I Get Married. During a discussion of framed stories, I asked the students to compile lists of movies which had framed plots (a story within a story), like Back to the Future. I received the above list from one student, and have not seen a single movie. Normally I’d consider it a fun project to research the movie myself, but I can’t find much plot information about these movies online and I don’t have the time to sit and watch them all. Could someone please tell me if any of the above movies have a framed story structure? Thanks!

IMDB rating: 6.40 Plot: When three star General Irwin is transferred to a maximum security military prison, its warden, Colonel Winter, can’t hide his admiration towards the highly decorated and experienced soldier. Irwin has been stripped of his rank for disobedience in a mission, but not of fame. Colonel Winter, who runs the prison with an iron fist, deeply admires the General, but works with completely different methods in order to keep up discipline. After a short while, Irwin can feel Winter’s unjust treatment of the inmates. He decides to teach Winter a lesson by taking over command of the facility and thus depriving him of his smug attitude. When Winter decides to participate in what he still thinks of as a game, it may already be too late to win. |

Morning R&P, Can you see the city lights? (#69)?
Hi Everybody.
So, this may be a very early ending to my Top 101 (mix tape rules) Countdown. I came into work this morning with over 20 violations waiting for me. So, it looks like they didn’t like me adding the link to my imeem playlist, and it looks like they don’t like that it’s not in the form of a question. So, let’s see if this works. For future reference, if you ever want a link to the playlist just ask on the question and I’ll put something up. Anyways, it’s a little frustrating.
Now, here’s the last ten:
78. Buffalo Sringfield - For What It’s Worth
77. Portishead - Cowboys
76. Tom Brosseau - Here Come the Water Now
75. Mos Def - Sex, Love and Money
74. the Mamas & the Papas - California Dreamin
73. the Specials - Little B*tch
72. PJ Harvey - Me-Jane
71. R.E.M. - Welcome to the Occupation
70. Jimi Hendrix - Castles Made of Sand
For #69 I went with an old favorite. It’s one of those songs where something as simple as the punch of the cadence stands out so nicely and create such a great feel almost on it’s own. A great, stand-out feature on top of a perfectly simple background. Love it.
Peter Gabriel - Solsbury Hill
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YZbp34ahD zs
So what do you think? What’s you favorite Peter Gabriel tune?
BQ: Any suggestions about how to keep doing this without getting violated? Am I on the right track?
Thanks a lot for listening and chiming in and everything. Hope everyone is doing really great.
Good Morning Deathcube, Morning Shades.
Thanks a lot guys. Glad it was a good choice. Hope this Monday is treating you really great.
Hi Shades, I hear that’s all you need.
Ouch, even for me that’s a little too cheesey…
Happy Monday!
Hey David.
Thanks a lot man. I really appreciate that a whole lot. I’ll take that into advisement in finding a new format.
Once again. I really appreciate that you’re enjoying the list and all the kind words. Made me smile (which comes at a premium first thing on a Monday, to be sure).
Have a good one man.
Hey Sookie!
Happy Monday! Thanks a lot. I really appreciate that. I try to be nice. Yeah, this morning taught me that this is some sort of an official problem. I must have opened a flood gate. It’s just stupid, but I suppose I was technically in violation of the community guidelines (like a solid third of the questions asked around here aren’t, but oh well).
Anyhoo, I think I’ve solved the problems. I guess I’ll just have to wait and see.
Thanks a lot again. Glad you liked the choice. Have a good one.
Thanks Smoochy. I appreciate that. I’m glad you liked the tune.
Take it easy Smoochy.
Hi Shades.
Thanks a lot for that. I really appreciate it. I think it may have started with a troll, but given the way the notices were I think somehow that question title ended up on the YA admin radar and they just cleaned them out. Either way. I can say that I definitely don’t take for granted how neat it is that people actually follow and pay attention to this. That’s why I’d really like to keep it going. Hopefully making these couple of changes will put an end to all of this.
Anyways, thanks a lot Shades. Happy Monday!
You guys are all just the best. I hope you know that.
I just jumped on to have a quick look at the answers and I just wanted to say thanks a ton to the Captain particularly for that really nice question a couple days ago. I just saw it now and that is just so cool. You guys are all just great. I really appreciate it.
If you happen to check back in, how are you feeling Beatle?
Hi Simone.
Thank you very much for that. I really appreciate it a lot. I’m glad too.
I can definitely appreciate that position on Gabriel. I feel the same way about a solid few artists that I respect, but have just never clicked with. The Flaming Lips are a great example of a band that I hear why they are so respected and appreciated and I can intellectualize it, but at the end of the day there just aren’t a lot of songs that I connect with.
Thanks a lot. Hope your week is going great.
boom boom boom!

peter has an excellent body of work, some of which i’m not too fond of, but a good number of musical masterpieces

(if it doesn’t work, see my questions)
ba:
i’m not completely sure about how to avoid future violations. did your warning notice specify your particular transgression? maybe you could leave the list of previous songs off for a while, ans ensure there are plenty of ‘knowledge-seeking’ follow-up q’s.
either way, please keep up the superb work

Hello prof.
Pure awesomeness! Very mellow! Loved it!
DeathCube K is Led Zeppelin-Core | Nov 16, 2009
Love Peter Gabriel * Love the song.
Loved seeing him live several years ago * Love his videos.
Love love love….
Happy Monday, Prof.
**edit**
I’m so sorry to hear about the violation notices!!! Good grief. (I didn’t *read* the question earlier and just saw it from reading Sookie’s answer).
My take is that someone is jealous. Jealous that you have friends who care to listen to your music and comment. And what a pity it is that they can’t figure out how to play nice with others.
Hope it doesn’t get you down!
(((Hugs)))
**edit2**
I was thinking it may be the yamster admin staff, too… if the questions were all worded the same, and more as a "show and tell" than a "question". I’ve no doubt you will be able to think of a unique question for each of the upcoming ones. So yeah. Will continue to be on the lookout for them, and lets hope this solves the problem!!!

pokemon: best move for dragonite?
im debating on which one i should delete and which move i should teach to dragonite
Moves right now:
wing attack
outrage
surf
body slam
Moves i might wanna teach:
dragon claw
ice beam
flame thrower
dragon bolt
(p.s. i also have a mewtwo so what moves should i teach to either of them?)
Train your Dragonite to do the solar-powered polystyrene groin-kick.
Anne Boleyn | Dec 20, 2009
Teach Dragonite this
———————————————–
Draco Meteor
Dragon Claw
Fly
Shadow Claw
Teach Mewtwo this
———————————————–
Psychic
Thunderbolt
Ice Beam
Flamethrower
PokeManiac | Dec 20, 2009
You should teach it Outrage and replace Surf. Dragonite Has lower special attack than physical attack.
For mewtwo teach it focus blast solar beam and probably fire blast
Sam Kam | Dec 20, 2009
Listen up…teach dragonite fly,dragon claw,flamethrower,and agility,to give it that boost in speed.Trust me this works.Dont teach it draco meteor.Itll just lower its attack like bad.And for mewtwo,psychic,shadow ball, thunderbolt,and calm mind-to boost its special stats.Your dragonite and mewtwo will then be powerful!
Alex | Dec 20, 2009
I agree with anne bolyne
pokemon_is_awesome | Dec 20, 2009
Use Dragonites Awesome base 134 attack and use physical moves. Dragon Dance is Recommende because it boosts dragonites high attack and mediocre speed. Outrage is powerful and after a dragon dance, not may pokemon can resist it. Earthquake his those annoying steel types that resist Outrage and Finally, use Stone Egde or Fire Punch.

IMDB rating: 6.00 Plot: Alex (Geoff Bell, The Business) masterminds an ambitious plan to steal millions of untraceable cash that is stacked in the underground vaults of The London Exchange Bank, waiting for its last journey, Incineration. Lucky (Vas Blackwood, Lock Stock) Matty (Leo Gregory, Stoned) Terry (Johnny Harris, London to Brighton) Chubby (Paul Nicholls, The Trench) Norman (Justin Salinger, Hitler) and Jay (Robert Boulter, The Long Firm) make up his unlikely gang of robbers. Setting up their alibi, the gang check in for a flight and join in with thousands of England supporters that are part of a mass exodus to The World Cup Tournament in Germany. Instead of passing through to Departure Lounge, the gang head out to the car park, pile into a van and head for Central London where they spectacularly ram raid London Exchange Bank, blocking any exit for those caught up inside. But with an unexpected turn of events, their plan is hampered from the start and they are left with a whole lot more than just a bank robbery to deal with. They have twenty hostages inside and the Police have laid siege to The Bank. There are two and a half hours before their plane leaves, and seventy million pounds in hard cash to steal. A daunting task, even for the most seasoned Blagger! |

Yes or No: Is this daylight robbery or a good deal?
I’m getting my back garden at my flat paved and have just came back from the local trade outlet with my dad, really feel like I’ve paid a lot of money and that’s all my bursary away for the next month as I’ve spent it all, guy wasn’t very polite but it seemed to be the cheapest place around, I’m really not sure about it now xxxx
Here’s what we got:
72x Concrete paving 600×600x50mm = ?284.40
Concreting sand large bulk bag = ?32.00
Blue Circle Cement 25KG Bag x4 = ?19.16
Sharp concreting sand x 4 = ? 11.40
Total including delivery ?416.25
I work in the trade and you have been charged pretty much the going rate. You don’t appear to have been given any kind of discounts and there’s no reason for the counter staff to be rude to you, after all jobs in this industry are getting cut every single day.
If you feel like you’ve been talked into something that you’ve changed your mind about, call them back and arrange a refund. You’re perfectly entitled to it and if the salesperson gives you any hassle, calmly and politely ask to speak to the manager.

Here on Earth
December 27, 2009
|
IMDB rating: 4.50 Plot: The lives of three young people - a rich student, a girl from the “wrong side of the tracks” and her boyfriend - unexpectedly intersect during one fateful summer in the romantic drama “Here on Earth.” Kelley Morse (Chris Klein), who is cocky and brash, normally would never have crossed paths with the residents of a small town near his posh private school. But when he takes his shiny new Mercedes out for a drive, he locks horns with some of the locals, including Jasper (Josh Hartnett). As Jasper’s willful girlfriend Samantha (Leelee Sobieski) looks on, Kelley and Jasper engage in a dangerous car race that turns disastrous, leaving a popular diner owned by Samantha’s mother in ruins. Kelley and Jasper are sentenced to a creatively ironic but fitting punishment: They must help rebuild the diner. Not only does this ruin Kelley’s summer plans, he also must board at the home of his rival, Jasper. Kelley begins to fulfill his “sentence,” but refuses to have anything to do with Jasper and his parents. When Kelley again encounters Samantha, the attraction is immediate and strong. First love blossoms in the Berkshire woods (”a little bit of heaven, here on earth,” Samantha calls the pastoral setting), angering Jasper, who has known Samantha practically his entire life. These new feelings and the romantic triangle that develops are only the beginning of a new journey for Kelley, Samantha and Jasper, as they ultimately make life-changing discoveries about themselves and each other. |

is it really the end 2012?
the mayans calendar ends on 2012. I ching also ends on 2012. An alignment of planets are supposed happen on 2012 thatll cause storms and eventually the extinction of planet earth and is proven by scientists that this could happen, Is it the end? If so than why havent we colinized mars yet? Maybe we have already or maybe mars will be destroyed too. What can we do and why?
The mayans were scientists them selves, they predicted so much with there calendar and there more advanced than us at keeping time. There calendar surpasses all we can create and will probably predict correctly that something big will happen on 2012. Might be the end might also be a new beginning.
i know that we have said this before but this is the mayan calendar this calendar is extremely precise not like all the other predictions. this prediction has to be true because of the past predictions that mayans predicted have come true. this prediction will happen but its not the end it could also be a new beginning.
no.. its all bullsh!t
Curious George | Dec 13, 2009
The real date of the end of the world is December 31, 2009. That’s when my calender ends anyway. Why would my calender end if the world was going to go on past that date?
Shane | Dec 13, 2009
No, it’s a lie. No one could have predicted the end of the world not even the Mayans. Just cause they made some stupid calendar and decided to end it on that date doesn’t mean anything. I mean eventually they had to stop making it. 2012 is just the end of their cycle and a new era.

When I receive a thumb-down for this answer, that means the asker is a troll or there is a stupid troll among the answerers. It’s pretty basic that believing such prophecies is stupid enough. Colonizing Mars in 3 years? We only have a stuck rover in Mars and another as a dead one. Calendars end and when they do, they turn over to the next one, a baktun in this case.

Buy another Mayan calendar before 2012…
The Mayan calendar only goes up to 2012, but that does not mean that nothing happens after that. If the Mayan civilization hadn’t folded, they probably would have adapted their calendar to go beyond 2012, and maybe add a zero to their number system.
Of much more immediate concern, what do you figure will happen if you fail to buy a new calendar before the end of 2009? <cue eerie music>
MPCheu | Dec 13, 2009
no, the world will end when God has planned. that could be tomorrow, 2012 or 1000yrs away. see what im saying? God doesnt want us to try and predict when the world will end. he has it figured out and it will happen when its meant to. Just read the bible and it will tell you basically this.
Rach | Dec 13, 2009
To be honest I do not think that the world will end in 2012.
It is just a philosophy that if we were to put on a probablity scale it will not be at 100%.
Many times ppl have said that the world will end in a certain year. (IT DIDNT)
also: wat was that thing that ppl said that the world will end on that day in September or somthing. Well we are still here.
Trust me, Don’t worry
EmoStyleGirl | Dec 13, 2009
It is just the beginning.
Billy Butthead | Dec 13, 2009
How many wrong assumptions can we get in a single question (aside of ugly grammar):
Is it really the end 2012 - no.
The mayans calendar ends on 2012 - no. Not even the Maya believe this.
I ching also ends on 2012 - The Chinese Book of Changes has no end, nor does it do predictions. It is meant for finding the sense behind PAST events.
An alignment of the planets is supposed to happen on 2012..- That is only claimed, but doesn’t happen.
…that’ll cause storms - No. No alignment has ever caused storms at all, not even tiny ones.
…and eventually the extinction of Planet Earth - No, since the cause is not happening at all. And what if the cause happened already in the past and did not cause the extinction of planet Earth?
…and is proven by scientists that this could happen - Scientists have proven multiple times that doomsday claims are just lies. The many contradicting claims about a doomsday in 2012 had been refuted by scientists already in 2003.
If so than why haven’t we colonized Mars yet? Because Mars is a hostile planet (If you think antarctic is hostile, you have not seen Mars yet) and at least 55 million km away. Why are only a few scientists living in the antarctic for a few months of the year, and not a few thousand people for their whole life?
Maybe we have already - Who did? you?
Maybe mars will be destroyed too - Since Earth is not getting destroyed, it is very stupid to think Mars will get destroyed because of it.
What can we do - use your brain. Or are you still in the middle ages, when medics claimed that the brain is only for cooling the blood?
Why? Because thinking is never a bad thing.
