Platoon (1986) IMDB rating: 8.20 Plot: Chris Taylor (Charlie Sheen) is a young, naive American who gives up college and volunteers for combat in Vietnam. Upon arrival, he quickly discovers that his presence is quite nonessential, and is considered insignificant to the other soldiers, as he has not fought for as long as the rest of them and felt the effects of combat. Chris has two commanding officers, the ill-tempered and indestructible Staff Sergeant Robert Barnes (Tom Berenger) and the more pleasant and cooperative Sergeant Elias Grodin (Willem Dafoe). A line is drawn between the two officers and a number of men in the platoon when an illegal killing occurs during a village raid. As the war continues, Chris himself draws towards psychological meltdown. And as he struggles for survival, he soon realizes he is fighting two battles, the conflict with the enemy and the conflict between the men within his platoon.

Marine Corps Boot Camp/ The Physical Conditioning platoon?
Could someone please give a general run down of what to expect during the first week of reception and if worst comes to worst what to expect if your sent to the Physical Conditioing Platoon? I’m having some trouble with my run time, I’m only off by 30 seconds on the entire run. Any info would be greatly appreciated!
I’ve tried several different approaches to improve my run time, I’ve ran sprints, speed intravals, ran hills and nothing seems to work.

---

Why are you even thinking about the PCP platoon? You do know only you can get yourself sent there, right?

I suggest you log off the internet and go run. And them keep doing this until you are ready to ship out.

Worrying about crap like this will do nothing for your run time.

You shouldnt be expecting to go to the PCP. Get that off your mind and MOTIVATE yourself!! Ask your recruiter to PT you multiple times a week and tell him to treat you like a DI would treat a Recruit. get that run time down and good luck man!

The Pork Chop Platoon, dont fail yourself and end up PCP. Your joining the Marine Corp to be the baddest mother fu*cker out there, you need to be ready, learn your rank structure learn your General Orders and be in shape. Get out and run, get your recruiter to help motivate and run with you. If you do end up in the PCP grow thick skin and be prepared to be motivated by any means.

Good luck, atleast you didnt puss out and join the army

If at all possible put off boot camp until you can get in better shape. You do not want to go to the pork chop platoon.. I would not suggest going to boot camp unless you can run 1.5 miles in under 12 mins. Remember you will need to get under at least 23 mins or so in the 3 mile run in about 6 weeks.. I spent 6 months on Parris Island with stress fractures, I can tell you just about anything you will want to know about it. Feel free to email me..

Born to Defend (1986) IMDB rating: 5.10 Plot: Jet, a young soldier at the end of the second world war must overcome some abusive Americans who are bullying him as well as the Chinese people.

Actors: Li Jet,Harrington Dean,Petersson Kurt Roland,Tocha Paulo,Zhao Erkang,Action,War,

Opinions on my current situation…?
I recently discovered that my husband cheated on me.

Background info: my husband was a virgin prior to being with me. We got married and have a 3 year old son together. He used to constantly complain about how he had never been with anyone but me and that our relationship moved to quickly. Several times I suggested that we separated if this was going to drive him insane and he refused.

He told me about the incident because he barely knew the girl and his condom broke. Now he is worried that she may have had some kind of STD that passed onto him and he possibly could have given it to me. so we are both going to get tested.

I have always been supportive of whatever he decides. I have always given him everything he has ever needed. When our son was first born, I went to work 3 months after giving birth and my husband stayed home to care for him. I was working a part time job and going to school full time. Now, my husband has a part time job and is going to school as well and things seemed to be going well until this happened.

I kicked him out and have already began my divorce paperwork; however, he has been begging me to forgive him. He has even gotten on his knees and cried to me. He said he doesn’t want to lose me and that I am the best thing that has ever happened to him. He text messages me every day and begs me not to go through with the divorce. I am having a very hard time dealing with all of this and just want to have some peace. I don’t know if I can forgive him for what he did.

The cheating hurt, but what hurt the most is that he wouldn’t tell me something like that. I mean, what if this girl has HIV? I didn’t even have the opportunity to reject him sexually… to defend my health.

Should I forgive him? Am I being too hard on him?

---

the best news is he cheated on you. the bad news, in so doing he may have contracted an STD, or worse. whyever would you consider forgiveness? this could affect the rest of your life. even if no diseases were passed, the possibility of him giving you one is unforgiveable in itself. personally i don’t think you have begun to be "too hard" on him for this. and i am a guy

infidelity is very hard to get passed. without professional counseling, it’s almost impossible.
Murzy | Dec 09, 2009

You both sound pathetic. You give him anything he needs? Right up to infidelity and a divorce? Maybe instead you ought to stand up for what is right in your marriage.

I forgave a man for infidelity, but he was a MAN.
ouragon | Dec 09, 2009

I would like to say try to work this out and stay together for the sake of your son.
The points you make about STDS (and possibly HIV/AIDS) however, are very, very difficult to overlook.
I guess it all depends on whether or not you can forgive him and move on together from this.
Quite frankly, if I was in your situation, with a young child and financially self-sufficient, I would probably keep going with the divorce (with generous visitation for your son).
Forgive your husband, so that you can move on with your life…without him.
Sorry.

He wasn’t ready for marriage when you married him,he still isn’t ready.you need to develop into a stronger person and not give someone everything they wants so I think divorce is the way to go for now.
cool breeze | Dec 09, 2009

forgiving someone after they cheat is really hard because it always going to be on back of your mind. No one can make that choice for you that is something that you have to make from the heart. Sometimes sorry doesn’t take the pain away but times does. It hard to tell if he would ever do it again. I don’t think you have been hard on him he needs that after hurting you. I wish you that best on this
James W | Dec 09, 2009

---

I wouldn’t. He was really selfish when he cheated on you and didn’t tell you that maybe he had something. That’s not the kind of man to be with the for the rest of your life. Also he really holds/held a grudge against you for his virginity prior to marriage. That’s not right, and how many women did he think he needed to sleep with before settling down? Does he need to sleep with more women before he feels like he can deal with his own sexuality?

Becoming a vegitarian isn’t easily done overnight. It’s not just about eating things aside from meat and animal products, its about finding alternatives that offer the same nutrition meat does. It would be a good idea to speak to a dietrician and visit some vegitarian websites that may can send your some free information and meal options in the mail or by email. Good luck!

Basically you eat some vegetable protein or additional low fat dairy products at each meal. Examples of vegetable protein would be tofu, tempeh, seitan, veggie burgers, vegetarian imitation meat products from your grocery store, or beans (kidney, navy, black, great northern, etc.). Low fat dairy products would be skim milk, fat free or low fat cheeses, etc.

If you want to have a healthy diet, it would be good to add whole grains as well, e.g. 100% whole wheat bread, brown rice, etc.
Emily M | Nov 24, 2009

Just stop eating meat. I think meat IS healthy. It gives you protein.
Meggy | Nov 24, 2009

I love red meat too, but have started to want to be more vegetarian myself lately.

There are many protein sources for vegetarians these days and one of the most
exciting is the quinoa grain.

Quinoa is high in protein and has a high content of the valuable amino acid lysine.

Most grains are deficient in this essential amino acid.

Lysine aids in the building of muscle tissue and the absorption of calcium.

Lysine also helps in the production of enzymes and hormones.

Quinoa is considered a complete protein because it contains all eight essential amino acids.

You could have this grain with vegetables.

Also I would eat your fruit separately from other foods, otherwise it will ferment and create problems in your body.

Also eating Wild Caught Salmon on occasion will give your body Vitamin D and lots of Vitamin B12 which is something you will have to keep in mind as most vegetarian diets can be deficient in these vitamins.

Good luck,
Kathryn

Immortal Beloved (1994) IMDB rating: 7.10 Plot: Ludwig van Beethoven dies and his assistant/friend Schindler proceeds to deal with his affairs (last will and testament). There is a question as to who really is his “immortal beloved”, and so tries to find out who this might be.

Actors: Oldman Gary,Krabbe Jeroen,Hofschneider Marco,Humphries Barry,Horan Gerard,Fulford Christopher,Diberti Luigi,Culkin Michael,Gibson Donal,North Matthew,Biography,Drama,Music,Romance,

immortal beloved beethoven's immortal beloved is his brothers wife and his nephew is really his son right?

---

That’s what the movie "Immortal Beloved" suggests, but it’s just a story. While there is a big mystery in Beethoven’s life over just how the "Immortal Beloved" was, and there are a lot of theories and pieces of evidence put forward, the movie is just a work of fiction. The facts of his life add up to make it pretty impossible that it was his sister in law. The movie chops up Beethoven’s life and reassembles the pieces to tell a good tale, but it isn’t an accurate biography of his life. I can’t remember the details now, but right after I first saw the movie I did some research to see how plausible the movie’s theory was, and it *completely* didn’t fit.

Krankor | Nov 01, 2009

Says the movie…I’m not sure if the nephew was really supposed to be his son, though…
Nathalie | Oct 28, 2009

Yes, that’s what the movie suggests. It’s purely speculative, however.

I think so based on the movie. It is said there that it is an untold story of Beethoven’s life.

Se7en (1995) IMDB rating: 8.50 Plot: A film about two homicide detectives’ desperate hunt for a serial killer who justifies his crimes as absolution for the world’s ignorance of the Seven Deadly Sins. The movie takes us from the tortured remains of one victim to the next as the sociopathic “John Doe” sermonizes to Detectives Sommerset and Mills — one sin at a time. The sin of Gluttony comes first and the murderer’s terrible capacity is graphically demonstrated in the dark and subdued tones characteristic of film noir. The seasoned and cultured Sommerset researches the Seven Deadly Sins in an effort to understand the killer’s modus operandi while green Detective Mills scoffs at his efforts to get inside the mind of a killer…

Can i request the radio to play Girls by Se7en?
If i requested the song Girls ft. Lil Kim by Se7en do you think they would play it? My cousin told me that even though the sing is his US debut they won’t play it because they don’t have the cd for it or something????

---

They would have to contact the management for the single or vice versa, but try request it anyway. Radio stations will be more curious about Se7en if several people request! Don’t give up.

Good luck!

asking again so that i would get more respond. trying to cool down by the way.

ok.. i have been very patient with my ex just because i dont want to ruin our friendship. am not someone who end a friendship by the way. not even with my enemy.

today, i had to ask him something. something that others dunno. so, the only choice i had was asking him. he replied me like normal. yes normal. but the abnormal thing which i consider a bit rude is… there is no ‘ur welcome’ after i said thank you. it might look small but i have been very patient with him. Why? Wanna know what he did?

1) he borrowed the gift he gave to me but never return to me. instead of returning back to me, he gave the gift to his current gf. (what a rude person)

2) i found out how playboy he is. he got a gf and he also got a closed friend which is a girl but both of them does not look like friends. they look more like a lover. most of us here notice that. the one and only blind is his gf.

3) oh yeah…just in year, he could actually get 2 ex-gf and 1 current gf already. what a playboy.

i seriously think he is a very rude person. should i really get blow up by the way? i mean, does it make sense? my friend said i should not coz he will think i still like him.

i am 100% sure with my feelings. i hate him. i really wanna get angry now and want his gf know all bad side about him. when i talk with some of his friends who are girls (his friends at works), oh yeah…they said he is a smug guy who talk arrogant alot. when i hear that, it make me more more angry.

do those bell-ringers at the stores asking for money piss you off?
i mean if you give to one at one store then goto another store, they want at another store!

---

Yes, especially when 59 cents of the dollar of their take goes to adminstrative costs and salaries. Sometimes less than 41% actually make it to the poor.

18 with Bad Hair Loss, Ways to Reverse/Fix It?
Ok, Im 18 and I had a full head of hair 2 years ago (2 years ago I also was diagnosed with epilepsy and was put on Valproic Acid, which has a side effect of hair loss. There are few alternatives concerning medication (some actually induce more seizures!)) Anyway, Ive been steady on the meds for 2 years, and my hairline has gone from straight to a very noticeable widows peak and the density of the hair on the top of my head has decreased, but the sides are as thick as they were 2 years ago. My dad also started going bald in his 30’s but Im only 18, are the meds really speeding up the hair loss? Is there a way to stop this other than hair surgery/transplants?
Also, I tried Rogaine and had a severe allergic reaction with it. (Face swelled up for days) Though I have heard that with some meds it creates adverse reactions with Rogaine.

---

Rubbing castor oil on the bald spots may help, for some people it makes their hair thicker and grow faster. You can get it in the laxatives section of the grocery store. Just to be safe you may want to ask your doctor if that’s alright to use with your medication. I kind of doubt it would, but better safe than sorry.
