Is Borat church scene real footage?
I watched the movie Borat! Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan.

it is a beautiful movie, but i have one question about the church scene

I know this kind of new age insane church is real and all around the world. But how did they film it? Was it real or they hired actors to act out that scene?
JoeG, thanks for the answer. are you living in the US? i am from Singapore and I went to a local church which is similar to the faked one in th movie.

christians are really stupid and insane.

thank you for acting it out so the entire world knows how these christian crazies live their retarded life.


That scene is fake. I was there when they shot it cause my mom was and extra in that scene. some scenes were real and some were fake.

Im in the deleted scenes Borat so look for me. a fat kid and i (the skinny one) are the only kids in the movie so im not hard to miss.

PS. if u want FREE BORAT RINGTONES just text BORAT to 20369 text ILIKE to 20369 for another one.

no its not,the movie was very well made,and lot of scenes look real.:)but most of thme are not.
born4mission | Mar 06, 2007


Borat was pretty funny….but at some points disgusting

okay, I am pretty sure that all of the scenes were real…except for the Pamela Anderson one…and the guy running from Borat

but I am not THAT sure

and what church scene do you mean? I dont remember a church scene
kuklitsa | Mar 06, 2007


yes, it was real
ropman1 | Mar 06, 2007


It is real. Almost every scene in the movie is filmed with real people; the producers tricked people by saying it’s a documentary or filming for Kazakh television. It is a fundamentalist church, and a lot of those preachers are very dramatic, they love any attention and publicity they can get for spreading their ‘message’ so of course they will agree to be filmed.

Edtv
Edtv (1999)

IMDB rating: 6.10

Plot: Cynthia, TV producer, has an idea about how to save the station: A normal person’s life should be broadcasted 24 hours a day. “Ed TV” is born the second her eye falls on Ed Pekurny, a sympathetic Joe Sixpack. After the first week on air Eds fame grows and grows, but conflicts break open: His brother Ray publishes a very negative book about Ed, who now dates Ray’s ex; Ed’s parent’s partnership problematics are broadcasted nationwide and a very attractive and seducing model uses innocent Ed to raise her own fame. Also, Ed’s contract proves to be unquittable, so that Ed Pekurny suddenly can see the golden bars around his cage. But in a country that switches the TV set on for breakfast and off for bedtime, nearly everything can happen - and people can be counted on.

Question for the ladies: Was she really not feeling chemistry, or was it something I did?
Question for the ladies: Was she really not feeling chemistry, or was it something I did?
A woman whose attention I caught on a dating website, "winked" at me and we talkedo n the phone a few times.

We did go out last weekend. We met in the city. She called me the night before to see that we were still on that night. That was a tell tale sign I knew she was interested.

Usually it’;d be me who’d call to square things away…..

on the date, I noticed she hadn’t touched her food. I knew she had to be nervous, but she just seemed relaxed.

She told me to use her fork if I wanted some of hers.

She knew I liked heels (on women). She asked me about it, (it was on my profile, I forgot) and we talked about it, and told her how I liked how they looked, they reflected confidence on the woman’s part, whatever–it was truthful. She said she liked that explanation, it was well said. So we went to another place to play pool, but it was all reserved, so we went to the bar. Now things got a little more interesting.

We were close up near one another, and at one point, I took the risk of placing my hand on her knee. She didn’t seem one bit uncomfortable with it, as she treated it as nothing was happening. So I placed it there for like 10 seconds. Then a couple minutes later I did it again. Before she went to the rest room, she had a big string of hair dangling from her face, never usually did when I had saw her, I used an old college flirt move–I used my finger and placed it gently above her ear.

She asked me more about me, I did the same. The convo picked up more.

We took the train together back to our cars. hers was a stop before mine. Before boarding, after talking a bit we moved closer next to one another..then I kissed her, and it turned to making out.

Then we stopped, I pulled away and we talked. A minute or two later, I told her I liked boots too, she said "good" and we made out again…..

we cuddled for a bit and I asked her if she’d like to have dinner with me before her trip to Ireland (a week and a half later) and she told me we could talk about it on the phone during the week, that she’d have to get back to me.

We sat on the train, she was on the opposite side sitting because we only had seats for ourselves. The fact that when the train cleared, she moved over immediately to the one next to me was very nice.

So her asking if we were still on, the seat moving thing, and the fact I got her number so quickly were all signs she was interested. Plus we kissed. That was a risk to do that in the first place for a first date.

I thought it felt right, it really did.

So she left, she placed her hand on my knee and said it was nice meeting me and kissed me goodbye.

I told her I’d call her.

Like 4 days later I called, left a casual message.

I said I had a good time, on the date she said she did too.

But she stared in space when she said it. I did say it once earlier in the evening (to my chagrin) and she said "good".

I dunno. So anyways, she emailed me last night……

and she said "Hey, what’s going on? It was ncie meeting you last week. You seem like a genuinely good person, but I am not interested in pursuing things further at this point. I don’t see a "click here’

Good luck,

and I was dumbfounded. Ok, so she rejected me. But it was just a nonchalant email.

Then I wondered what I did wrong.


You didn’t do anything wrong. She just wasn’t feeling a spark…
Move on…

The Princess Diaries: You Are SO Lime Green Jello of Me

Wanted to make it work. He was trying SO hard. And I really didn’t want the fact that he had an awful mustache influence me, cause hello? Shallow? But then he wouldn’t tell me his last name. After we’d already met once. Which of course led to my co-workers googling him, and finding out for me. So yeah, between his paranoia, goofiness, and mustache I realized that I just wasn’t into it. Ugh. - I am considering applying to a Master’s program. This is terrifying. I mean as if any of my undergrad professors remember me at all. I contacted one of them for a reference letter and he said yes - but am at a total loss about what to do for the second reference letter. Even if I had gotten along with my honours thesis advisor (which I really didn’t), he’s passed away - so he’s not an option. And writing? What writing do I do other than work emails and my blog? Should I send them a link to both blogs? My erotic writing is pretty hot and all - but not sure I really want to use that as an application piece. Ugh.

Digital converter box with pass-through connected to a standard cable?
If i connect my digital converter box with pass-through to a standard cable line, shouldn’t it detect both the analog cable channels and the free digital channels running on that same line (I get the digital NBC, ABC, PBS, CW, etc. on my new LCD TV with a built in digital tuner)?

HERE IS THE REASON FOR MY QUESTION:

I am putting a TV in my kitchen… Living in an apartment, I cannot simply run a new line into the kitchen. So I bought a Wireless UHF Audio/Video Transmitter which will send audio and video from a DVD Player, VCR, Cable Box, or (as I am trying to do) Digital Converter Box to the TV wirelessly… Anyway, my initial plan was to connect the transmitter to the converter box and use a IR repeater so I could change the channel on the converter box without going to the next room… Unfortunately when I connect the converter box to my standard cable connection, the converter box says "NO SIGNAL FOUND"… What is going on? Shouldn’t it detect something?


(This answer assumes you are located in the US)

If you have a common OTA converter box like the government used to give out coupons for, it will not work.

The converters were made for over the air (ATSC) antenna signals only. All major cable systems use a different type of digital signal (QAM) that is not compatible with the tuner in the box.

Your choices are to connect one of the following to your UHF A/V Transmitter:

1. Use an old cable ready VCR as a tuner for analog cable channels. Keep in mind that your A/V sender is sending out an analog version of the signal anyway even if you connect it to a digital tuner.

2. Buy a DVD recorder that includes a QAM digital tuner.

3. Find a converter box on the Internet that does include a QAM digital tuner. (These are not common)

4. Get a digital cable box (which may be called a "converter box") from your cable company and connect it to your A/V sender.

If you live at a location where you can get TV signals with an antenna, you can connect an antenna to the OTA converter and then connect it either directly to the TV or through your A/V sender.

Have you had Sudden Unintended Acceleration with a Hyundai? Similar to the current Toyota problems.?
Last year our Hyundai Santa Fe took off like a Formula One car from a near standstill whilst being parked, crashing through a closed garage door and into the rear wall, doing extensive damage to vehicle and property, and causing some personal injury. Luckily no-one was killed, but if someone had been opening the garage door …… they would have been history. Despite an independent engineer’s opinion that it was a Hyundai manufacturing and/or service failure they just don’t want to know, and worse still they denied that they had ever heard of a similar situation occurring before. Now that the whole Toyota debacle is out in the open the subject of Sudden Unintended Acceleration is getting proper attention - seems it has been the subject of an automotive industry cover up for decades. Unethical doesn’t even come close to covering their behaviour and they should be found guilty of manslaughter where fatalities occur, and liable to punitive damages also. There can be a whole range of causes and there is a lot of information published, but it is NOT driver error in the vast majority of cases. The only thing that is certain is that if it occurs there is nothing the driver can do about it. The manufacturers, not just Toyota, must be held accountable for safety. We know of a number of Hyundai incidents but would like to hear more.


all cars can do this,but cause toyota is a big company they have to make a big deal about it,my brother is in the middel of a lawsuit with ford cause his ford flex did the same thing,to me toyotas are still the best cars out there,sorry buy hyundais are known to have issues as well,safty issues just like all other cars,honda just recalled Fits for catching on fire,personally id rather a corolla that creeps forward than a car that lights up all of a sudden,call the goverment and see if they make a big deal about it like they did toyota

david f | Feb 06, 2010


Most often the nut behind the steering wheel is responsible for the acceleration you will find. Intended or otherwise.
Timbo is here | Feb 06, 2010


Your comment that "if it occurs there is nothing the driver can do about it" is the most stupid and ignorant thing that I’ve ever read!!! Think about it…how do you stop a car? You can use the foot brake, emergency brake or best, PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL! I amazed how many ignorant people can’t take some responsibility for saving themselves in an emergency. Putting the car in neutral won’t over rev the engine because it has an electronic rev limiter. Also, you won’t lose the power steering or brakes. All you have to do is to "bump" the transmission from drive to neutral. This takes 1/2 of a second! You are a lawyers dream client. Make sure he gets 90% of the settlement!
Mark A | Feb 06, 2010


The way you’re writing indicates you’re a lawyer. How much you’re looking for? Got some change in my pocket cuz that all you’ll get. Hyundai doesn’t have this problem. They don’t use the same supplier as Toyota. Get a better story and try other manufacturer but Hyundai or KIA. LOL about your story. Was funny.
Hyundai Guru | Feb 06, 2010


1st, They do not use CTS pedal.
2nd, They do not use outsourced parts as many as Toyota.
———————————
According to NHTSA safety complaints database.

sudden-acceleration incidents (2008 model-year data)

No.1 Toyota : 41%(Share of complaints)
No.2 Ford : 28%
No.3 Chrysler : 9%
No.4 General Motors : 5%
No.5 Honda : 4%
No.6 Nissan : 3%

Unintended Acceleration from Toyota, Ford, Chrysler, GM, Honda, Nissan are much more than Hyundai. Hyundai is almost zero. (i’m not sure, but certainly smaller than Toyota, Ford, Chrysler, GM, Honda, Nissan)

I'm working on the outline of a book right now. Any tips?
As my headlining question states, I’m working on a book right now—my first one actually. I’ll try to do my best to stretch it out, but if it’s going to be what I think it may be, it will only be around 100 or 150 pages long. I’m trying to write it in a classical style with a blend of medieval and modern themes. Some of my favorite books were the classics— The Iliad and The Odyssey by Homer, Paradise Lost by John Milton, and also many plays such as Othello and Phantom of The Opera. I really want to make this epic. I already have most of the lead characters planned out. Does anyone have any tips as to how to stretch my book out so to provide it with good, publishable quality? Also, for the veteran authors, about how long does it normally take you to write a good book? Where should I go to get it published when done? Finally, if it’s good and published, how much should I expect to make from it? If anyone has anymore random tips of which could help, then by all means, share them. Thanks in advance.


Don’t rush yourself. And don’t plan for it to be an epic, since many books never get published.

I’m not exactly a ‘veteran’ author, but i have a lot of experience writing novellas. It takes me about 2-3 months to write the shortest novellas, but I’m working on my full-length novel right now, which has already taken 2 months, not including the time I spent creating it in my head.

when you write it, look at publisher’s websites. find out what they want (letter, synopsis, however many chapters) and send it off. You’ll find out soon enough if they want to publish it or not. Send it to more than one.

Don’t expect to make much from it. The average author (non-bestsellers) make around ?2,000 - ?4,000, give or take a little.

I am looking to move to Charlotte NC in july 2010?
I am looking to move to Charlotte NC in july 2010, I don’t have a job or much money. I am moving down there to start a new life with my family. can any one give me advice on a great county with low taxes, low crime area, safe environment and good school systems. I wanted to find a job with in the first month of me getting there. I have 11 years worth of customer service skills,do any one know where I can find a good job, I am willing to work any where thats willing to hire me and train me i am a very fast learner so it won’t be hard for me to catch on to the job.I need to make this move because I lived in cleveland all my life and it is horrible and very hard to find a decent job.I heard charlotte nc was a good move so if any body could please help me with any info on finding the best area to move in, i will greatly appreciated. I also would like to know if any jobs in any county in charlotte does online interviews (with a web cam) or over the phone interviews? please contact me and give me your suggestions.

(Married african american couple with three children)
This message is for karla…..FYI; life isn’t bad for me i just need a new scenary, so if you don’t have a positive response please don’t respond.


With your experience, I don’t forsee you having that much of a problem finding a job in or around Charlotte. I will say though, you might wanna look at living outside of Charlotte because it is pretty expensive in a lot of places around there. Salisbury, Kannapolis, Concord, and maybe Mooresville are nice places to live and if you work in Charlotte it is just a quick trip down I-85 to work. It is a nice area and should be pretty ideal for you and your family. The area is a very big player in the financial market and there are all sorts of things you could possibly find to do. I prefer the Salisbury area, nice area, nice people. Good luck to you and your family.
