Illegal Tender (2007)

IMDB rating: 4.60

Plot: After the gangsters who killed his father come to settle a score, a teenage boy and his mother turn the tables on the killers – one Latino family’s quest for honor and revenge as the hunted become the hunters. Wilson DeLeon, Jr. is an exceptional college student with an adoring girlfriend, doting mother and a future full of promise. He has never wanted for anything, and he has never been forced to stand his ground. But when ghosts from his mother’s past come back to haunt his present, he must defend his family … and quickly turn into the strong man his father prayed he’d become. Nothing could stop Wilson’s mother, Millie, from protecting her two boys. Forced to flee her home after gangsters killed her husband, she made an oath to give her children only the best. But all that changes when an enemy from the past catches up with them. It’s finally time to take action – and now, they’re done running. Weapons at the ready, Wilson, Jr. and Millie prepare for a final showdown with the murderer who robbed him of a father and her of a husband. Now, in a battle fueled by family ties and blood feuds, it will become very clear what happens when anyone tries to come between this son and his mother.

Good, but underrated movies?
I just watched a great flick that came out a couple of years ago that did very poorly at the box office. I checked it out only because it featured a gorgeous hispanic actress who is not a big star, but absolutely sizzles on the screen. It turned out to be one of the best movies I’ve seen in a while.

Can you name some other little known movies that are worth a viewing? You know the kind. Independent films, art house, college student made.

By the way, the one I just saw was Illegal Tender. The actress in it was the stunning Wanda De Jesus.


My all time favorites, ( not very little known perhaps…) for which I have been looking for years before I found them:

-Panic in the Skies! (with Kate Jackson) – plane gets hit by lightning, pilots die, landing computer fries to a crisp… mwuahahahaha
-Final Decent ( with Robert Urich) Very exiting b movie in which a boeing gets hit by another lots smaller plane, and then, they can only climb…. (aaaah!)
-Final Run ( with Robert Urich) Exciting out of control train movie.
-Turbulence ( ray liotta I think… ) crazy killer and surviving stewardess who has to fly the plane, a big fat boeing. ( i love stuntflying with boeings…)
-The Langoliers ( stephen king I think… ) they fly through a rip in time… creapy monsters too.
-Executive Decision (1996) with stephen seagal and Kurt russel. plane gets hijacked, and they get on the plane by use of another "docking" plane… thriller.

and of course,

-Pandora’s clock, with Richard Dean Anderson. ( macgyver) about a virus on an airplane… nice one!

(and maybe for other softhearted people like me…
- working girl )

Band’s Visit, The

Band's Visit, The
Band’s Visit, The (2007)

IMDB rating: 7.80

Plot: A band comprised of members of the Egyptian police force head to Israel to play at the inaugural ceremony of an Arab arts center, only to find themselves lost in the wrong town.

Directors: Kolirin Eran

Actors: Bakri Saleh,Gabai Sasson,Gavriel Uri,Jabarin Imad,Moskovitz Rubi,Natour Khalifa,Sheety Eyad,Comedy,Drama,

Am I a baritone or tenor?
Recently, I have begun singing for a band, which is also my first real attempt at singing at an ‘intentioned’ level. (I mean, I’ve done karaoke and all that, but never sung seriously anywhere)

How do I know whether I’m a baritone or a tenor? I know this is best solved through a visit to a voice coach, however money is really tight at the moment.

I definitely have a deep speaking voice, but some have also commented that I’m a tenor. I’m not really sure which one I am, as I can sing reasonably well (for my experience level) in both lower and higher octaves. I’m also comfortable singing either.

*I do get hoarse after a couple of hours singing. Must be about breath control.

Thanks in advance.


Don’t bother with the opera arias…the other poster is making fun of you.

You won’t need a professional voice coach if there is a competant choir director in your area. Try the high school or any church with a choir; the director is usually a trained musician who evaluates voices all the time. Most would be happy to help you out – they’ll probably take the opportunity to try and recruit you! – and could give you a very good idea in just a couple minutes.

Working with what you said, your speaking voice is only a partial indicator. Most guys speak too low anyway; it’s an image thing, whether we mean to talk deeply or not. And if you have others who think you sing in the tenor range, they may just be hearing you use a head voice/falsetto, which is frequently better-developed in basses. I’d put some money on you being a baritone, but without hearing you in person it’s really only an educated guess. Good luck finding out!

What kind of band do you sing for? Are classifications like baritone/tenor relevant for your band? These terms have slightly different meanings depending on the genre of music (opera, choral, barbershop quartet, pop, etc.)

In the world of opera, for example, these terms carry with them precise requirements on the vocal range and volume that the singer can produce. For example, many tenor pieces require the singer to sing up to a C5 ("Tenor C"). I would look at this page and find out exactly what kind of Facher you are :)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fach

If you want to get into opera, your tessitura will need to be evaluated by a professional. They take into account range, volume, timbre, etc. Try recording yourself singing some of the arias listed on the above page and then give it to someone schooled in opera or choral music to evaluate what range suits you best. (Keep in mind that any serious work requires several years of voice training.)

Remember that these classifications refer primarily to the the range of the role and not necessarily the range of the singer. In some rare cases, a singer can sing in multiple ranges (i.e. Tenor & Countertenor).
Jay (TYO) | Jan 31, 2010


Statistics say the chances are, you’re a baritone. Most males are natural baritones until they train/practice to be one way or the other to be tenor or bass.

However, when you say you’re singing in a ‘band’, i’m imagining a pop/rock band, yes? If this is the case then a lot of the lines involved for most styles are within the tenor range, and if you’ve been singing along and practicing to this kind of music, then you may be more of a tenor rather than a baritone.

Maybe if you can give us an idea of some of the songs you can sing comfortably (in their original keys) we’d be able to work out whether you’re a tenor or baritone.

Lost Colony of Roanoke? What Do You Think Happend to Them?
Explain?


Any answer is speculative. One possibility is that the Croatans destroyed them. Another is that the colonists, to avoid starvation, joined the Croatans and "went native."

how do you make a puffball dress puffy?
for my gcse textiles course i wanted to make puffball dress out of scratch but i dont know how to make the puffball part a big puff.

a lot of websites say to pin the bottom of the hem to the top..or summink like that..but i dont understand whats meant by that.

also if you find any step by step directions on how to make a puffball dress with images or even a video i would be very grateful..thanks =D
also anywhere i could download a free pattern piece would be very helpful..thank you =D


looser material at the end where you want the puff and then you can pin it ‘ruched’ up together. Take sections of the material and pull it up slightly and then sew.

Thats what this is.

lamo my dad is EXACTLY like ur husband
Aqib | Jan 13, 2010


hmm, i think we have the same husband and mother in law. Well honestly if he cares he will stick his neck out for you. I have been with mine for almost ten years and dealt with my mother in law. We have children now and can dangle them in front of her. He will get sick of the stuff, I have stuck it threw and finally hit my breaking point with the in law situation and curretly i’m making my husband talk to me and tell me what he wants. And this is either live with me and his children or go back to mommy. I didn’t marry his family i married him, and should not have to deal i with his mother except for holidays. Is this kinda what u are feeling?
ldep | Jan 13, 2010


Here we go,,,, Did you know all about this security problem with your husband, before you got married? Looks like you both or maybe just you walked into a fire and didn’t realize it. I would wright down a list of pros and cons of what is wrong now in your marriage. What changed all of the sudden.
I would speak to your husband on gives and takes. me personnaly knowing just a little you have said, I would be moving out and file an anullment of marriage. (Divorce), before there is children involved.

Good Luck, remember neither of you are floor mats to be walked on and the marriage should be bonded between you two now, not mom or mother-in-law, or any family members.

Good Luck again. Write me if you want a long version.

I wish i could help you… you seem be a poor person
ehsan | Jan 13, 2010


Honey you have got into a situation that neither one of you are mature enough to cope with. You may as well face it. He’s a Mamma’s boy and you are a clinging vine that makes him feel trapped. To save this marriage both of you will have to seek a professional marriage councillor now, not next week or next month.

Your "I love him" is only an excuse for your fear of going it on you own.
Do you really love to fight with him?
Do you really love him for the way he clings to his mamma and ignores you?
Do you love him for telling you not to say a word against his mamma?
Do you love him for his selfishness?
Do you love to be used and treated like a doormat for him and his family to tramp all over you?
Are you are jealous of his mamma? Think about that.
Yes, some Mothers-in-law can be a real pain in the butt and the solution would be to move far away but in your case that’s not likely to happen.
I feel sorry for you and wish you well.
There is another who knows about your situation a lot better than I do and He is more than willing to help you if you ask Him.
Whatever happens, He will be there for you. Have you met Him?
His name is Jesus.
George W | Jan 13, 2010


girl just put ur foot down…dont let ur mother in law get to u like dat,n ur husband if he luvs his mama too much den he shouldnt consider marriage but stay home n take care of his mom…theres a line n boundaries wen it cums to marriage n family…he should be at ur side n put his mom in her place…i dont let my mother or mother in law runs my family or tell me wat or wat not to do…im da queen of my house cuz in d end of da day im sleepin wit my husband not his mother…ur husband needs to grow up..
Ms Chapman | Jan 13, 2010


just tell here
awommack | Jan 13, 2010


And you didn’t know all this before you married him? It’s not too late to annul the marriage. This is a battle you will never win, so might as well quit it now.

The hapless quartet visits a chocolate factory, where they stumble into an enchanted wardrobe that transports them to the land of Gnarnia (with a “G”).

who is the ferryman in greek myth bringing the dead to hades?


In Greek mythology, the "River Styx" was a river which formed the boundary between Earth and the Underworld (Hades). It circles Hades nine times. The rivers Styx, Phlegethon, Acheron and Cocytus all converge at the center of Hades on a great marsh. The other important rivers of Hades are Lethe and Eridanos. Styx was guarded by Phlegyas, who passes the souls from one side to another of the river. In other versions, Phlegyas guarded Phlegethon, one of the other main rivers of Hades. Sometimes the ferryman was called Charon.(Also spelt Kharon in older texts)
