Human Nature
February 9, 2010
|
IMDB rating: 6.20 Plot: A philosophical burlesque, Human Nature follows the ups and downs of an obsessive scientist, a female naturalist, and the man they discover, born and raised in the wild. As scientist Nathan (Robbins) trains the wild man, Puff (Ifans) in the ways of the world - starting with table manners - Nathan’s lover Lila (Arquette) fights to preserve the man’s simian past, which represents a freedom enviable to most. In the power struggle that ensues, an unusual love triangle emerges exposing the perversities of the human heart and the idiosyncrasies of the civilized mind. Human Nature is a comical examination of the trappings of desire in a world where both nature and culture are idealized. |

when humans change, is that an example of human nature?
i’m reading Lord of the Flies and i have to write my own chapter that went "missing" from the book. and we have to have insight in how human nature changes. and i was thinking that since Ralph got a huge urge to kill something and he is usually the one who isn’t out there killing boars, i was thinking that changing is a form of human nature.
please help!
change is Nature’s delight

Anyone have a current movies list so far?
Just a list of my top 3 movies released in 2009 as well as ones at the bottom of barrel:
1. Fantastic Mr. Fox- Very funny and enjoyable from start to finish.
2. The Blindside- A nice feel good film, worth watching.
3. Up- Another good one, the type of film to watch on a saturday night.
—
2nd list-bottom of the barrel
1. Medea goes to jail-Not one of Tyler Perry’s best films and Avatar(tie)-In the long run my older brother and I decided that Fantastic Mr. Fox was a better film.
2. Michael Jackson’s This is It- I do like a lot of his songs but I wasn’t too crazy about it.
3. Julie & Julia- Not a bad film but probably one I won’t watch again for a while.
Anyone have a top 3 and bottom of the barrel list?

G | Jan 16, 2010
1. The Hurt Locker - I related a lot to Jeremy Renner’s character about why we do the things we do.
2. The Road - I am fan of Cormac McCarthy and loved this movie. Some parts of the film left me feeling quite disturbed because I wondered How many of us would be like them?
3. Up - I have to agree with you there. The first 10 minutes are sheer brilliance. Fantastic movie.
My Bottom of the Barrel list include:
1. Angels and Demons - Although Ron Howard has Cinderella Man under his belt I absolutely hated this movie. None of the actors had chemistry with each other.
2. 2012 - Bad graphics, bad acting and ridiculous dialogue, enough said.
3. Couples Retreat - I like Vince Vaughn but yet again another failure from him.
trippen | Jan 16, 2010

1. Everybody’s Fine - try to don’t cry while you are watching it
2.A Christmas Carol - this movie made me to feel the Christmas spirit

What is the problem with Palestinians sharing the Holy Land with Jews?
General consensus holds that Jews illegally entered Palestine to form Israel. But whats done is done. Why cant the Palestinians live together with the Jews? About half of all Muslims worldwide live as minorities anyway! They could be a benefit to Israeli society and even help some Jews to convert to Islam. All fighting does is lead to misery.
After all, isnt there a Mosque on the Temple Mount?
Islamic Rule maybe?
Naor | Feb 06, 2010
Hey,
from what I know Israel was a creation post World War 2 to give the Jews a land of their own. This holy land was carved from Palestine.
It would be like taking a US state or part of a state and suddenly giving it to a different nation. With different values and a different Religion. There would be an uproar in the U.S how other countries couldn’t force the greatest nation in the world to give a piece of land to a different country. But that is pretty much why there is the entire argument. Not only that there has been a lot of dispute about the border and Gaza strip. Which creates a lot of tension.
The US is primarily on the side of the Israelites because they helped form this country and ultimately this dispute. The media paints a poor picture of the Palestinians, at the end of the day, the Israelites are just as responsible, because they provoke the conflict by moving into land which neither side dared to claim for years to build housing projects. And for every shell Palestinians fire, you can be sure that the Israelites fired a shell or two you didn’t hear of which also killed women and children.
That’s what I know,
I hope this helps,,

Because the jews don’t want palestine at all. They want it to become israel, which is so unfair and it’s really sad when almost the whole world support them for it. Why do alot of countries support israel? Well, because they are jewish and palestinians are muslims it’s as simple as that.
Jorry | Feb 06, 2010
The Palestinians would simply have more children, the average Arab family would increase from 2 parents and 8 children to 2 parents and 15 children.

Dude we do not have any problem with them but they took our homes and kicked us out . now i can not visit my own city ! . Also we lived with them in peace under the islamic sharia law in spain and in the holy land . but they want to build a jewish country no one can live in it except the Jews .They are our cousins .

We’ve protected them when hitler burned them . then they took our land .BTW there is no Temple Mount under the mosque they only want to destroy our mosques .
the cool muslim | Feb 06, 2010
that was the original plan in 1948 jerusalem would have been shared, the palestinians would have had a lot more land than they have now… BUT the palestinians didnt want to share any of the land with jews so they and all of the surrounding arab countries attacked israel….. and guess what they still dont want to share it. just ask the question on here on how many palestinians would want to live in peace with israelis if all the land they had then was given back… the answer is NONE, and i have asked several times on this site and also on ramadan. they dont want even one jew there.
by the way what do you call the jews who never left the land… just so you know jews have always lived there, my fathers family is one of them that never left since biblical times…
before 1920 there were only 18,000 palestinians in the land, now there are 650,000 so you need to know that there were a lot of illegal palestinian immigrants from jordan, syria etc. the fact is that both jews and palestinians existed there before 1948 and both jews and palestinians immigrated to the land.
ideally in my mind it would be wonderful if the palestinians would gurarantee peace… no more rockets, no more suicide bombers for the israels complete withdrawal to the 1948 borders…. guess what israel would do it with that guarantee, but you know what the palestinians would still not be happy and wouldnt stop the terror… so what is the answer? who knows?

Quotation From Pride & Prejudice?
I need a quotation saying how Elizabeth feels only love could make her get married or something along those lines. From the book (not film or TV series) just to make that clear….thanks
I tried this question in the quotation section but I havent had a reply yet so I thought I’d try Homework Help too, please reply fast! thanks so much
yes I have read the book! But I can’t remember all the quotations and I don’t know where to find it
Have you considered reading the book? Really, this forum is not for getting other people to do your work for you. It’s for asking for help when you can’t do something. There is no excuse for what you’re asking for.

You would have been done sooner if you had used the film or TV series, because it’s all pretty much the same. Or a quick trip to Barnes & Noble would have sufficed. Especially if you had gone to www.pbs.org. Here some quotes straight from the book:
Mr. Bennet treated the matter differently. "So, Lizzy," said he one day, "your sister is crossed in love I find. I congratulate her. Next to being married, a girl likes to be crossed in love a little now and then. It is something to think of, and gives her a sort of distinction among her companions. When is your turn to come? You will hardly bear to be long outdone by Jane. Now is your time. Here are officers enough at Meryton to disappoint all the young ladies in the country. Let Wickham be your man. He is a pleasant fellow, and would jilt you creditably." "Thank you, Sir, but a less a agreeable man would satisfy me. We must not all expect Jane’s good fortune."

Tell Me if You Like this, Please?
I love to write, and I’ve been told I’m very good, but that’s been by people who knows me, and I don’t know if they’re just saying so to be nice. I have won a couple of awards, though, but I think opinions from here would be the very good for me.
The fire ate at him; its sweltering tongues licked at him, tasted him. Through its roar he could hear a whisper, a whisper that, as the smoke and light and heat climbed toward a climax, called out for him.
And he answered its call by feeding it. The flames ate hungrily, devouring the pieces of wood quickly, leaving only charred ashes behind. What a wondrous sight to behold, he thought as he crouched down before his creation. Such a fiery beauty it was; and it was his. It was his; he was the master of fire.
He was the Creator. A ghost of a smile touched his lips. The orange and red hues of the flames danced in the dark crazed eyes.
Smoke snaked its way up, way above his head, up toward the trees. He followed the smoke

My wife cheated on me… why? is it my fault as my friends claim? Please, I need advices.?
Hello.. so I’m a 25 year old guy, I’ve been married to my wife since 2004. My friends always told me that it was a bad idea to marry that girl because she wasn’t virgin (I was virgin)… according to my friends, she wasn’t virgin and as result she had been unfaithful to me given that any woman is supposed to only have sex with the man she gets married with.. my friends also told me that marring a non virgin girl was a terrible idea because once a cheater always a cheater.. I never paid attention to my friends’ advices and decided to marry her… and so far everything was going great until last week…… last Friday I found out that my wife had been cheating on me for the last 8 months with a guy from her work… as you can imagine, I felt so humiliated, I felt so confused, I didn’t know why she was cheating on me, I asked her why she did it, and she couldn’t give me a reason… I really can’t understand why she cheated on me, I always was a loving, caring and provider husband. I always took her out to diner every weekend, of course, I couldn’t take her out to dinner on weekdays because those days I’m busy working. My friends tell me I shouldn’t blame her for her actions, they tell me I’m the only one who should be blamed for having married a non virgin woman.. do u think my friends are right?
I hope this is a troll.
Virgin does not = unfaithful. Unlink these two concepts in your brain. Now that you’re not longer a virgin, will you automatically cheat on your next girlfriend? No.
Rachel | Feb 05, 2010
Your friends are idiots and not very sensitive to your situation.
Not being a virgin is not the cause of her cheating, that’s silly. Also, you did not make her cheat.
There could be troubles in your marriage that you are responsible for, but still, that is not an excuse to cheat.
She needs to own up to why she’s cheating and be honest if the marriage can be saved, that is if you want it.
mouser | Feb 05, 2010
Your friends dont know what they are talking about.
You know how many NON virgins have gone into marriage and been happily married for many many years. The statistics prove your friends wrong.
Its just u got a person who was a cheater , thats all.
Ever thought about it from this point. If a woman is not a virgin when married. Its fair to say she has played the feild and is settling for the best. Your friends are looking at it in a different persepective thats all.
Mr Warrior | Feb 05, 2010
I disagree. You wife cheated on you because she was unfaithful towards you. Its not your fault, it was hers. And the fact that she didn’t have a reason proves it.
ddrummerd | Feb 05, 2010
your friends sound like arseholes really golly what has being a virgin got to do with marriage, sounds like your friends are too involved, people can get through cheating but its hard can you do it, i would stay away from so called friends and ask your girl to, talk to her and try and work it out ive no right to say she is a cheating cow but shes a cheating cow sorry ive been hurt thats all and i dont like that behaviour men or woman, i do wish you well xx
