Do you think that Debra Messing would ever play a disturbing role?
I’ve only seen her play 1 other role other than her usual comedy ones. She was in the "Mothman Prophecies", but she had a very small part.

Do you think she’d ever play a Lead disturbing role? I DON’T mean sick and twisted, I mean something that’s dark and weird.

I think that’s be super cool for her and would boost her credit. What do you guys think?
PRU, I’m not saying if she could play a bad guy.

I’m asking if you think she could play a disturbing role. Maybe I’m not making myself clear, but I mean do you think she could play a lead role in a disturbing film? Like have you ever seen "Dark Water"? (with Jennifer Connelly). Could Debra play a role like that?

Hope I’m making sense lol


I doubt she could fill the role of a "bad guy" she is type-casted as a "good girl" i just don’t think she would be believable as a bad guy…the audience prob wouldn’t accept her as that bad character

She was female lead in the series "Prey". That wasn’t a comedy was a sci fi. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0005226/

Difference between my iTunes song count and iPod song count?
My iTunes library has exactly 15 songs more than my iPod library, and every time I sync my iPod those mysterious 15 songs don’t get added. I don’t know how to figure out which ones they are, and I’m sure as hell not goin’ through 8000 songs individually. What do I do?


take all the music off and see if there are any songs left over

sometimes some music files like to take permanent residence in an iPod, and won’t go away even if you take all the music off of it via iTunes. The only way to get rid of them is to restore
Alex | Feb 07, 2010


When I first downloaded itunes, there were 15 songs already in the library, almost like sample music but it was all crap that I would never listen too. I didnt delete it at first and I later had the same problem. I ended up going through ALL my songs to find them and it was a pain. Im sure there is an easier way to do it tho., just not sure how.

Urology Pain for 1.5 years no answer.?
I have been dealing with urology pain for about a year and a half now. i’m 16 years old and i have recieved no answer for my problem. i started out with just burning with urination, then i had pain with ejaculation. after a half year i informed my mom and we went to several urologists. first i was diagnosed with urethritis i got medicine, it didnt help. then i was diagnosed with prostatitis, the medicine did help, and the pain subsided for about a month. Then the pain returned. Every single uranalysis test i have had shows microscopic blood in my urine, and no infections were found excepet once, a uti was found, but the medicine to treat the uti didn’t have an effect on my pain level (although the uti went away). THen about a month ago, i started getting very severe symptoms. Such as: slow painful urination, straining with bladder, painful ejaculation, pain with passing gas, and pain all down my left side (left side of :testicle, urethra, anus and leg down to my foot.) it is mostly in the hamstring and it goes into the outside of the bottom of my leg. cipro somewhat decreases the pain, but nothing else. ive been to 4 urologists and im out of options. pain gets worse during sitting, and again is only on the left side,but sometimes, when it gets bad enough it moves over to the right side. what can this be?

You need to go to another urologist. If there is a large hospital in your city you need to find a urologist in their group. My brother had epididymitis and it took 4 doctors until he got properly diagnosed and treated. By the time a dr. figured it out his thing turned black and he had a swollen ball. You may have to go to a larger city to find a doctor. If you lived near Dallas, TX I could give you the name of my brothers urologist but you may have to find one on your own. Have you researched any doctors in your area or near by?
Feel free to message me by clicking on my name.

This is what my brother has and no its not because he has an STD

i got some bad floor burns today.?
i was at a volleyball tournament today and i forgot to pull up my kneepads while we were warming up and i dove for the ball (sliding on my knees) and now i have shiny dark pink circles on each of my knees and it STILL stings just as much as it did when i got them (about 12 hours ago). it hurts soooo baaaad and i can’t bend my knees at all without them stinging like hell. this isn’t the first time this has happened to me, but what can i do to reduce the pain?

i have to wear pants (skinny jeans) tomorrow and i know that will hurt a lot..


Only thing I can think of is Neosporin with pain relief and you will need several tubes of it. The pain relief product should help pain and neosporion is the only thing I use for scrapes,bruises,etc. If you can get to a pharmacy, buy large size bandage pads, cover spots on knees good with neosporin and wear patch under jeans unless they will show. Also, you will have to do this at home, but they make a spray for women to use after they have a baby and other things. It is a spray and it is very numbing. This would be good to use at home and leave knees uncovered and let them heal. It is a topical spray but it will say something about numbing the pain. Ask the pharmacist, who cares you are in pain. Peace.

Updated 2010 first round mock draft with explanations, any questions?
I received some feedback on my mock on a real football forum that I post on, and adjusted the picks appropriately and gave explanations/justifications for each pick.

Enjoy

St. Louis Rams (1) Ndamukong Suh DT Nebraska- Probably the best DT prospect since Warren Sapp. Strong, explosive, athletic and has perfect NFL technique, as close to a sure thing as there is in this draft.

Detroit Lions (2) Gerald McCoy DT Oklahoma- If not for Suh would be the premier defender in this draft. Similar skill set to Suh except uses a little more finesse and not as much raw power, and probably wouldn

In April 1968 Johnny Ross escapes two attempts on his life and flees to San Francisco, where he is placed in protective custody by politician Walter Chalmers, who hopes to use Ross to further his own national aspirations. To protect Ross, Chalmers asks the SFPD to assign Detective Lieutenant Frank Bullitt and his partners, Sergeants Don Delgetti and Carl Stanton, to guard him at a flophouse near an overhead freeway.

Bullitt gets what information he can, but breathing down his neck is the angered Chalmers who vows to ruin Bullitt’s career should Ross die. Bullitt gets a break when the gunman appears at the hospital to finish off Ross, and Bullitt gets a good look at him; now Bullitt must smoke out the gunman and his backup man before Chalmers carries out his threat, leading to a high-speed pursuit, a fiery crash at a gas station, and a fingerprint check that leads to a stunning discovery about Ross, and about a couple staying at a swanky hotel in San Mateo.

Is Poseidon the Adventure named after the greek god?


Yes it was, Purdey is quite correct. The name of the movie was "The Poseidon Adventure", and see the original with Gene Hackman. Much better than the remake.

Lord Bearclaw of Gryphon Woods | Jan 18, 2010


It’s actually The Poseidon Adventure and yes, it is since it takes place in water.
Purdey EP | Jan 18, 2010


I’m pretty sure it is…
Laura Coso | Jan 18, 2010


Poseidon, was the god of the sea. so idk what adventurer u are thinking about. Perseus, Hercules, and there are so many more. but poseidon was the god of the sea, Earthshaker.
James | Jan 18, 2010


yeah.
Princess Angel Biscuits | Jan 18, 2010


Technically no, it was the name of the ship in the movie, but the ship was named after the Greek god, and the film makers knew most people would make the connection. so indirectly yes.

Ancient Relic (2002)

IMDB rating: 5.20

Plot: STEFFEN VOGT, aged around 25, is helping out at a German archeological excavation in Israel when he finds a 2,000-year-old skeleton holding the instructions for a video camera dating from the year 2003. The bones also show traces of the present day. His theory of a time-traveler who made a video of Jesus is laughed at by everyone, however, including SHARON, an attractive Israeli woman he adores. Although no one appears to believe him, his find certainly seems to have generated interest: Steffen is attacked shortly afterwards in his hotel room by strange men; then he discovers that the German embassy and the secret service are after him; and when his friend DAN is murdered, he goes into hiding. His only true ally is Sharon. Steffen’s theory seems to be correct: financier and time-travel expert KAUN turns up at the excavations in person and carries out several elaborate subterranean measurements at the Wailing Wall # where he believes the camera has been hidden. He is assisted by the head of the excavation, Professor WILFORT. Steffen suspects that Kaun is one of the people hunting for him and remains in hiding. Assisted by Sharon and her jealous boyfriend YEHOSHUA, he manages to steal a letter from the time traveler that contains coded instructions on how to find the video. Before the three of them can set off again in search of the video, Steffen is abducted and tortured. His tormentors # who later turn out to be members of a secret Vatican order led by the unscrupulous SCARFARO # try to blackmail the whereabouts of the Jesus video out of him and then destroy the tape before it gets shown to the public. Steffen manages to escape from them. With Sharon at his side and the murderous churchmen at his heels, he starts a frantic, action-packed hunt for the video. Eventually Steffen and Sharon find what they are looking for, inside an old monastery. Scarfaro has tracked them down, however, and the video falls into his hands. In front of everyone’s astonished gaze he then plays the film # and Steffen suddenly realizes that the biggest adventure of his life has only just begun….

Help with finding the name for this small organ like instrument?

She said it is the closest thing to the human voice and it looked like a ancient relic. Any help would be greatly appreaciated and a quick Best Answer for ya thanks.
Thanks it was the harmonium


I reckon i. jones is right, but maybe - just MAYBE it’s a mediaeval portative organ…

Were there visible pipes? How was the thing blown? Answers to these questions would help us to make suggestions. Without that information, this is the best I can offer -

If the guru carried it into the class, it has to be quite small. If not a portative organ (though the bigger of them were ‘portative’ only with a couple of hefty guys to lug them around: my old tutor at Cambridge had one and it was a substantial instrument, not the sling-round-the neck thing you might imagine) I suggest a small regal.

This was the ancestor of the harmonium: a beating reed instrument, and usually with only one or two stops. You will easily tell by the sound - if it was small enough to carry, and buzzed rather than whistled (flue pipe) or hooted (reed pipe) then it was something of that sort.
