What's your favorite fairy-tale retold?
Name a book and a movie of your favorite fairy-tale adaptation.

If you don’t know any, it can be something like Pans Labyrinth/Mirrormask, as long as it has a sort of fairy-tale feel to it.

Mine:
Book- ‘Confessions of an Ugly Stepsister: A Novel’ and the Grimm brothers collection.
Movie- ‘Snow Queen (2002)’ or ‘Snow White: A Tale of Terror’


Anything found in the "Stinky Cheese Man and other Fairly Stupid Tales" book is great.

Also, the book "The True Story of the Three Little Pigs" is a great one too.

As for a movie, "Everafter" would have to be my favorite re-told fairy tale (based on Cinderella).

Is the race card going to work to get Obama elected a 2nd time?
Or will people be so jaded by his performance that they won’t care if they get called a racist for not voting for him? Or will that even be an issue next election (always assuming he runs)?
Oh, it exists, Jared. Usually in the minds of people who see it everywhere. Hence, the people who scream "RACIST!" when you said you weren’t voting for Obama. They couldn’t believe you weren’t voting for him based on his skin color because they WERE.

See how easy that was?
the Big A: It’s "baiting." And I believe that race is OK to talk about, as long as a person isn’t being hateful. Liberals are the ones who decided that merely even MENTIONING race was racist.
Josh: And don’t forget Chris Matthews. He WAS able to forget for an hour, though. :0)


Yeah, like nobody in America would vote AGAINST him because he’s black. Why are you trying to pretend like racism doesn’t exist? What are you hiding?

Erich Meyer | Feb 05, 2010


Are you ready to get the denial, deflection, ridicule AND the race card!!?

No, it won’t work.. the country is growing VERY weary of the libs whining and twisting the truth into the fourth dimension…
Jimmbbo | Feb 05, 2010


To be honest, I don’t see how Obama could ever be elected to a 2nd term regardless of whatever tricks and stops the left pulls out.
Thomas Jefferson | Feb 05, 2010


Its the only thing he has left.
Joe | Feb 05, 2010


Secret ballots are an assurance that we can vote without being held up to false accusations and bullying. 0bama will be one and done. The moderates and independents that got him elected will not be fooled by his rhetoric a second time.
wiemercats | Feb 05, 2010


I’m sure they’ll throw it out there… Imagine if Glenn Beck said "I forgot that he was black for an hour". But…Obama has 2 years until he goes back into campaign mode again and a lot can happen in that amount of time.
Al Bundy | Feb 05, 2010


about half your questions are about race — you need to stop with the race bating
The Big A — American Atheist | Feb 05, 2010


has skin color got him elected the first time. but his skin can’t run the country his brain has to. his skin won’t get him elected a 2nd time. he will have to do it on brains and talent witch he has neither of
hoodrich69 | Feb 05, 2010


I didn’t care the first time. It becomes clear very quickly that the race card is used by libs as subject changer when they’re losing the argument. I can’t see anyone falling for it again

I’m not racist, I don’t like his white side either ;)
Bear | Feb 05, 2010


Ironically, you are the one that is keeping it about race…Obama has trancended race. Nobody really looks at him and thinks black anymore, except racists.
Josh | Feb 05, 2010


It didn’t get him elected the first time so why should it the second?
future | Feb 05, 2010


no he wont be re elected with the things he is trying to force down people like they said if it doesnt pass they will do it another way until it does.
thecooldeal69 | Feb 05, 2010


It didn’t work for him the first time. He wasn’t playing the race card then and never did. That was the racists in the Republican party (GOP) playing it. And they still are and he’s already in office! You’re doing it right NOW!
Fans Of Racist Rush R Racist 2 | Feb 05, 2010


we will never know only the right ae not satisfied with him, He wont have to play ant card
Lordpercywooster XXV | Feb 05, 2010


Well clearly you have made your mind up.

But there are a great many Americans who are actually judging him on his performance (the economy stabilised within a year), not on ignorant partisan hatred.

So no race card involved (that is just the sore losers’ pathetic excuse) – yes he stands a very good chance of reelection.
Sageandscholar | Feb 05, 2010


Obama never used the race card in the first election?!

What is the chronological order of the "Batman" graphic novels?
I want to read these novels in the proper order. I am going to start with Frank Miller’s "Batman: Year One" and need to know the correct chronology for reading the subsequent sequels, regardless of author.


There’s a list of the comics here, I’m not entirely sure which ones you’re talking about, but you might be able to find it out. Hope this helps!

Starting with Year One by Frank Miller:
This source lists the Graphic Novels and Trade Paperbacks in chronological order, not by their publishing dates.

It also goes into which books are not necessarily cannon, and which books retell stories from earlier history, that can to some degree be ignored for the main storyline.

Need help with my daughter's fever!?
My daughter just turned 3 weeks old last friday. Since saturday afternoon she has been running a fever. It’s been going up and down and at one point it got up to 102.5. We brought her up to the ER saturday night because she is so young and we were worried. The ER doctor took her temp and it was 101.8. He then told us to keep giving her tylenol and not to bring her back unless her temp was at 105!! I’ve been told by numerous people that brain damage and seizures can occur once the fever reaches 103 (which my daughter was very close to) Has anyone else gotten the advice to not bring their child in until it reaches 105, or is that doctor absolutely crazy??
sorry meant to say 3 MONTHS not 3 weeks.


105?? Really? That doctor is an idiot. Since she’s so young you need to keep an eye on it and if it starts getting to 101+ then that’s when you need to do something about it. For babies OVER 6 months it’s 103+. Younger infants cannot handle high temperatures such as that.

There are times where it’s better to listen to your motherly instinct and ignore a doctor’s recommendations.

Noah's Mommy is expecting #2 | Jan 19, 2010


Yea that’s not right fyi ER docs suck. I would definatly call your doctor or go to different hospital if it gets to 102 again.
Summer | Jan 19, 2010


It sounds to me like the doctor is either overworked, lazy or both. 105 is extremely high, especially for a baby. I would bring your baby back into the ER (or another ER if possible) and have your child looked at again. This is YOUR baby, no one cares for it as much as you. I would also suggest you get your baby into her regular doctor as soon as possible.

"For a baby between 3 and 6 months old, call if his temperature reaches 101 degrees F (38.3 degrees C) or higher."
SMR | Jan 19, 2010


that doctor is nuts take your baby to another hospital the baby might have an infection.
ice_pheonix579 | Jan 19, 2010


105 is way to high for a 3 month to wait around for. My doctor told me that for a baby 101. is even pretty high. I think you need to take her to a pediatrician very soon don’t wait for her to get a 105 fever that is not good at all. I can not believe the er told you that.
JD's mommie | Jan 19, 2010


The ER doctor is trained to deal with emergencies (a high fever = bring the fever down). They are not trained and don’t have experience in diagnosing and curing the cause of the high fever. Today is not a holiday, its not a weekend and its not in the middle of the night; you need to bring your daughter in to her pediatrician today so he/she can advise you.

In general stay away from the ER. They are great at dealing with the emergency at hand but your daughter’s pediatrician is better trained to give medical advice.
goldshire1 | Jan 19, 2010


Now that she’s beyond the 2 month mark the dr. was right. I think.
icartb | Jan 19, 2010


Brain damage does not occur from a temperature until the body reaches above 107.

Are chis the only blanket burrowers?
Are chihuahuas the only dog that burrow under blankets to keep warm? Is this a sign of tool use? If it is, could chihuahuas be considered the smartest dog breed? I have a miniature poodle who seems extremely smart, but doesnt ever burrow under blankets. But then he has much longer fur.


No, many other dogs burrow under blankets. Many smaller breed dogs were bred to hunt smaller vermin and would burrow into tunnels…so many of those breeds still dig and burrow today.

Burrowing under blankets is not really a sign of tool use, and dog ’smarts’ are based on how quickly and accurately dogs learn tasks/commands. Chis are number 67 of 79 on the list.

Nikki T | Oct 18, 2006


I work at a Vet clinic that offers boarding services and see lots of blanket burrowers. It tends to be smaller, short haired breeds, but not always chihuahuas. Min-Pins,Rat and Jack Russell Terriers do it, so do some mutt dogs.
I don’t know if it’s tool use, and I’ve seen some pretty stupid Chihuahuas, but you never know.
Cheers.
Bonsylar | Oct 18, 2006


You answered you’re own question. More fur=no blankets.

And no, chihuahuas are not that smart. How could they be? Think how tiny their brain is.
shogun_316 | Oct 18, 2006


Well, Chihuahuas are certainly smart! but my little mutt..looks just like a smaller Benji, burrows under the blankets..
I have seen several dogs use tools..they are smarter then many credit them to be..
chetco | Oct 18, 2006


i dont think it even has anything to do with intelligence. its called staying warm. my dachshund burrows ((literally digs into my sheets)) im convinced that its because thats just what his breed does. my dad has a chi thats dumber than a box of rocks… and he burrows too. both of the dogs have short hair. so i think it is just the dogs’ way of making up for their lack of fur to keep warm.

Were you disillussioned when Jesus didn't return by 1988 as many Christians thought He would ?
Many thought this because Israel became a nation in 1948 and used that as a countdown to the Rapture. A biblical generation is 40 years. Now I believe Matthew 24:32-34 refers to the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 A.D. rather than the Second Coming or the end of the world.


No. Christ Said that Only the Father Knows when the end of the world will be.

clusium1971 | Sep 21, 2009


Charlie Babbit grabbed and pulled and hurt my neck in 1988.
I got Mail! YAY! | Sep 21, 2009


Really? Christians thought Jesus would return in 1988? I didn’t know that. Problem is, he will never return. Human sacrifices rarely do. Especially after having their bodies eaten and their blood drank afterwards.
CindyComesBack | Sep 21, 2009


no that was cults.. some say 2048
Fireball | Sep 21, 2009


people can say that the world is gonna end in 1988, 2000, 2012, but honestly, the world can end in 5 mins if thats what the Father wanted. no one but Him knows and making predictions is just a waste of time.
*just a hint: God says the world will end when no one expects it to end.
scip779io | Sep 21, 2009


Only the false date-setters were disappointed!

We are told to NOT set dates. That we will only see the clues- which is more and more trouble in the world, more and ever more violent wars, more and more oppressive government, etc- that the end is ever nearer.

But no set dates.

There are some who try to set dates, but those are false prophets then. And we are to shun false prophets.

So why some continue to follow a sect which has a prophet proven to be so false- I do not know. They are fooled.
space monkey | Sep 21, 2009


How about where it says in the Bible that Jesus will return during the lifetime of the contemporaries of 2000 years ago. Either there are a lot of young looking 2000 year old people or it’s all a bunch of crap. I’m leaning towards the latter.
shmulfer | Sep 21, 2009


I was really young so I don’t know…
CIA agent. | Sep 21, 2009


I personally don’t listen to the predictions of man. Jesus said no one knows the time of his return. However, I don’t understand why many people think that a biblical generation is 40 years. Many commentaries I have read base this on a 40 reign of kings. But that doesn’t mean the generation of man is 40 years. I go by Psalm 90:10. It clearly says "The length of our days is seventy years – or eighty if we have the strength".

So now add 70 or 80 to 1948. We are not there yet, so we will see.
