It's going to take a collaborative effort from communities, the media, the entertainment industry, the politicians, the drug companies, the gun lobby, the anti-gun lobby to reduce and ultimately prevent these types of things. The major obstacle to that working is the fact that a lot of the organizations who play a roll in this make big money, and the tendency from all of them when a tragedy happens is to point their fingers somewhere else instead of pointing them at themselves. If we all focused on what WE could do better to help prevent random acts of violence and took action to change that, instead of point out what someone else could do better, maybe we'd start to get somewhere. Until that happens people will continue to die and they will sadly be the ones who have no voice in all of this while those of us who live will cry holy hannah for a few months before we move on with our lives until the next tragedy when we start the cycle of finger-pointing without self reflection again.
HEAR HEAR!! Exactly.

If it does ever happen where the possibility of questions to Emma comes up again, I will simply PM the members that UNDERSTAND this whole process and ask for their suggestions.
It will save this whole ridiculous scenario coming up again.
Great idea. You'll get your best suggestions and ideas--in private.

So.... the solution is:
Why not take all these people who're f'ed up in the head, and put them all in an island to fend for themselves. Come back after a year and retrieve either A) the ones to became sane again and/or B ) the sole survivor, he will be studied.
Great idea---and have all the BIG PHARMA thugs on that island along with them--UNARMED--let's see how long
they survive.
Karma is a b**ch!!!

Hi Jo---
Do you have any plans in the near future, to meet with Emma? I'm just wondering
if you'll have a chance to ask her some of our ?'s from last fall.
Is she busy taking her last semester of classes, and graduating this year??

Jon, sorry about your brother-in-law's brother. It's getting to be an epidemic in this country.
I think along with the NRA, BIG PHARMA should be held responsible.
I heard on the "news"that shooter at Sandy Hook was on 3
different types of anti-depressants/psychotropic drugs that
cause homicidal/suicidal thoughts. You'll never see BIG PHARMA held accountable tho, because
they're in bed with the government/media. Just look at the "news" shows, all you see are
nasty drugs with disclaimers and all the side effects during commercial breaks Those ads are saying:
If you take these drugs, they can cause more problems and/or make you more sick or worse cause death.
Americans are the most heavily sedated/drugged people in the world. They like to take meds for everything, and
take whatever their doctors prescribe. Americans have "short-term memory" caused by these meds. Sad.
I think the NRA and BIG PHARMA should be part of those congressional hearings on gun control. People kill with guns because drugs are causing homicidal/suicidal thoughts.
You'll hear mental health being bantered about, but that still hasn't lead to the connection of psychotropic drugs that the
psychiatrists give their patients.
Guns are the symptom--why does the US have all these shootings??? It's the cause--psychotropic drugs.
Did you also notice the killer at the Century Cinema in CO??? He looked like he was dazed/drugged out of him mind. Again,
no mention of psychotropic drugs. Ummmm...I wonder why???? $$$$$ ALWAYS TALKS--FOLLOW THE $$$$$$

I don't know how many GA fans are out there, but I'm addicted to this show!!
It's on the Travel channel Fri/Sat nights.
Zac, Nick and Aaron, have had some really cool encounters. Sometimes, the spirits will
call them by name, and they will have a cool, hair-raising sensation around them.
I love when they have their "midnight lockdowns"--using
their EMF/infrared/ultra-violet equipment and meters.
One of my favorites was in Salem MA, when they were in the Witch House. They actually picked up the
energy of Bridget Bishop--the first women accused and hung for being a witch. After she said who she
was--apple, apple came over the EMF screen--and it turns out that the Witch House was built on her
apple orchard.
If you enjoy the paranormal, then check it out:

HAPPY 2013!!
I hope that 2013 sees our ship come in!!
-
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL!!

I thought it was pretty good--loved the scenery of New Zealand!!
Is it my imagination or does Gandalf look a lot like Dumbledore?? I guess if you've seen one wizard--
you've seen them all. LOL!!
-
I heard that guy in CT was on several psychotropic drugs--mix that with guns, and
you've got a real recipe for disaster!!
Big pharma will never admit thattheir drugs are the problem here--all you need is to listen to the disclaimers
on the drug ads--they're telling people these prescription drugs are going to kill
you or others. This is really sick!!
It seems its every year, there's several of these shootings--remember the Batman premiere?? Columbine???
Suicidality and Antidepressant DrugsAntidepressants increased the risk of suicidal thinking and behavior in children, teens, and young adults. Depression and certain other psychiatric disorders are themselves associated with increases in the risk of suicide. Patients of all ages who are started on antidepressant therapy or when the dose is changed should be monitored appropriately and observed closely for clinical worsening, suicidality, or unusual changes in behavior such as becoming agitated, irritable, hostile, aggressive, impulsive or restless.

MAYAN ELDERS CLEAR MAYAN CALENDAR
Carlos Barrios, Mayan elder and Ajq'ij (is a ceremonial priest and spiritual guide) of the Eagle Clan. Carlos initiated an investigation into the different Mayan calendars circulating. Carlos along with his brother Gerardo studied with many teachers and interviewed nearly 600 traditional Mayan elders to widen their scope of knowledge.
Carlos found out quickly there were several conflicting interpretations of Mayan hieroglyphs, petroglyphs, Sacred Books of 'Chilam Balam' and various ancient text. Carlos found some strong words for those who may have contributed to the confusion:
Carlos Barrios: "Anthropologists visit the temple sites and read the inscriptions and make up stories about the Maya, but they do not read the signs correctly. It's just their imagination. Other people write about prophecy in the name of the Maya. They say that the world will end in December 2012. The Mayan elders are angry with this. The world will not end. It will be transformed."
"We are no longer in the World of the Fourth Sun, but we are not yet in the World of the Fifth Sun. This is the time in-between, the time of transition. As we pass through transition there is a colossal, global convergence of environmental destruction, social chaos, war, and ongoing Earth Changes."
He continues: "Humanity will continue, but in a different way. Material structures will change. From this we will have the opportunity to be more human. We are living in the most important era of the Mayan calendars and prophecies. All the prophecies of the world, all the traditions are converging now. There is no time for games. The spiritual ideal of this era is action."
Carlos tells us: "The indigenous have the calendars and know how to accurately interpret it -- not others. The Mayan Calendars comprehension of time, seasons, and cycles has proven itself to be vast and sophisticated. The Maya understand 17 different calendars such as the Tzolk'in or Cholq'ij, some of them charting time accurately over a span of more than ten million years.
"All was predicted by the mathematical cycles of the Mayan calendars. -- It will change --everything will change. Mayan Day-keepers view the Dec. 21, 2012 date as a rebirth, the start of the World of the Fifth Sun. It will be the start of a new era resulting from and signified by the solar meridian crossing the galactic equator and the Earth aligning itself with the center of the galaxy."
At sunrise on December 21, 2012 for the first time in 26,000 years the Sun rises to conjunct the intersection of the Milky Way and the plane of the ecliptic. This cosmic cross is considered to be an embodiment of the Sacred Tree, The Tree of Life, a tree remembered in all the world's spiritual traditions.
Some observers say this alignment with the heart of the galaxy in 2012 will open a channel for cosmic energy to flow through the Earth, cleansing it and all that dwells upon it, raising all to a higher level of vibration. Carlos reminds us: "This process has already begun. Change is accelerating now and it will continue to accelerate.
If the people of the Earth can get to this 2012 date in good shape without having destroyed too much of the Earth, we will rise to a new, higher level. But to get there we must transform enormously powerful forces that seek to block the way."
The date specified in the calendar Winter Solstice in the year 2012 does not mark the end of the world. Many outside people writing about the Mayan calendar sensationalize this date, but they do not know. The ones who know are the indigenous elders who are entrusted with keeping the tradition.
Carlos tells us: "The economy now is a fiction. The first five-year stretch of transition from August 1987 to August 1992 was the beginning of the destruction of the material world. We have progressed ten years deeper into the transition phase by now, and many of the so-called sources of financial stability are in fact hollow. The banks are weak. This is a delicate moment for them. They could crash globally, if we don't pay attention. Now, people are paying attention."
The North and South Poles are both breaking up. The level of the water in the oceans is going to rise. But at the same time land in the ocean, especially near Cuba, is also going to rise. Carlos tells a story about the most recent Mayan New Year ceremonies in Guatemala. He said that one respected Mam elder, who lives all year in a solitary mountain cave, journeyed to Chichicastenango to speak with the people at the ceremony. The elder delivered a simple, direct message. He called for human beings to come together in support of life and light.
"Right now each person and group is going his or her own way. The elder of the mountains said there is hope if the people of the light can come together and unite in some way. We live in a world of polarity -- day and night, man and woman, positive and negative. Light and darkness need each other. They are a balance."
"Just now the dark side is very strong, and very clear about what they want. They have their vision and their priorities clearly held, and also their hierarchy. They are working in many ways so that we will be unable to connect with the spiral Fifth World in 2012."
"On the light side everyone thinks they are the most important, that their own understandings, or their group's understandings, are the key. There's a diversity of cultures and opinions, so there is competition, diffusion, and no single focus."
Carlos believes the dark side works to block unity through denial and materialism. It also works to destroy those who are working with the light to get the Earth to a higher level. They like the energy of the old, declining Fourth World, the materialism. They do not want it to change. They do not want unity. They want to stay at this level, and are afraid of the next level.
The dark power of the declining Fourth World cannot be destroyed or overpowered. It's too strong and clear for that, and that is the wrong strategy. The dark can only be transformed when confronted with simplicity and open-heartedness. This is what leads to unity, a key concept for the World of the Fifth Sun.
Carlos said the emerging era of the Fifth Sun will call attention to a much-overlooked element. Whereas the four traditional elements of Earth, Air, Fire and Water have dominated various epochs in the past, there will be a fifth element to reckon with in the time of the Fifth Sun --- that element is 'ETHER'.
The dictionary defines Ether as a "hypothetical substance supposed to occupy all space, postulated to account for the propagation of electromagnetic radiation through space." Perhaps it could be defined as the "space between space". I would suggest it could be manifest as the alignment of charged particles from our solar system (Sun), and our galaxy (Milky Way) surge. The Ether element represents spiritual energy.
"The element of the Fifth Sun is celestial. Within the context of Ether there can be a joining of the polarities. No more darkness or light in the people, but an uplifted unity. But right now the realm of darkness is not interested in this. They are organized to block it. They seek to unbalance the Earth and its environment so we will be unready for the alignment in 2012."
"We need to work together for peace, and balance with the other side. We need to take care of the Earth that feeds and shelters us. We need to put our entire mind and heart into pursuing unity and unity now, to confront the other side and preserve life."
"We are disturbed -- we can't play anymore. Our planet can be renewed or ravaged. Now is the time to awaken and take action. Everyone is needed. You are not here for no reason. Everyone who is here now has an important purpose. This is a hard but a special time. We have the opportunity for growth, but we must be ready for this moment in history."
Carlos says: "The prophesied changes are going to happen, but our attitude and actions determine how harsh or mild they are. We need to act, to make changes, and to elect people to represent us who understand and who will take political action to respect the Earth."
"Meditation and spiritual practice are good, but also action. It's very important to be clear about who you are, and also about your relation to the Earth. Develop yourself according to your own tradition and the call of your heart. But remember to respect differences, and strive for unity. Eat wisely --- a lot of food is corrupt in either subtle or gross ways. Pay attention to what you are taking into your body. Learn to preserve food, and to conserve energy. Learn some good breathing techniques, so you have mastery of your breath. Be clear. Follow a tradition with great roots. It is not important what tradition, your heart will tell you, but it must have great roots."
"We live in a world of energy. An important task at this time is to learn to sense or see the energy of everyone and everything -- people, plants, animals. This becomes increasingly important as we draw close to the World of the Fifth Sun, for it is associated with the element 'ether' -- the realm where energy lives and weaves. Go to the sacred places of the Earth to pray for peace, and have respect for the Earth which gives us our food, clothing, and shelter. We need to reactivate the energy of these sacred places. That is our work."
"One simple but effective prayer technique is to light white or baby-blue colored candles. Think of a moment in peace. Speak your intention to the flame and send the light of it on to the leaders who have the power to make war or peace."
Carlos reminds us this is a crucially important moment for humanity and for Earth. Each person is important.
He said the elders have opened the doors so that other races can come to the Mayan world to receive the tradition. "The Maya have long appreciated and respected that there are other colors, other races, and other spiritual systems. They know that the destiny of the Mayan world is related to the destiny of the whole world."
"The greatest wisdom is in simplicity. Love, respect, tolerance, sharing, gratitude, forgiveness. It's not complex or elaborate. The real knowledge is free. It's encoded in your DNA. All you need is within you. Great teachers have said that from the beginning. Find your heart, and you will find your way."

Those scumbags Rupert Murdoch/Piers Morgan should both be locked up and all their media control folded. They're part
of the elitist cabal that controls the news. I love that Hugh Grant is leading the charge against this trash. He along
with Sienna Miller, Jude Law, Jo Rowling, the McCanns(parents of little Madeline who was kidnapped in Portugal), and several
in others, were in court to testify against these idiots.

ROFL!!!!!
see do what I do-take a day off 
but listening to Christmas music and peppermint hot chocolate ahhhh thats my 2 happy things Saw on Emma's official site them asking questions-I think it's very cool and sweet
Hey Kris--those are my fav happy things this time of year too!!
As for John Rutter--he's a great choral composer and his music is beautiful--but a "Superstar"--I don't think he'd consider
himself as such.
-
Yea, Kris, I would love to see a complete video of ALL the HP movies OUTTAKES--that would really be like
watching home movies of these two. Also, the big after party that was held
at Leavesden--in the Great Hall. Ummm..and what about some videos/pics of R/E serving ice
cream from his Mr. Whippy's ice cream truck, the last day of filming.
I'm sure somebodyhad a camera that day.
Also, Happy Thanksgiving to all!!
-
Some people have posted tweets pics with him Trixie
hes lookin goood-hair is getting longer again. I love his hair long and short Yea, he looks fantastic with longer hair--his hair might be the perfect length by the time Beauty/Beast starts filming.
-
Awww, the little kid looks confused. He looks like he's about 5-6 yrs old, and
he's probably only seen SS and COS. In his mind, Hermione is a 9-10 yr old little girl.
Most little kids under 6 have only seen the the first two movies, as it gets darker and
scares them.
-
Now this is adorable!!
by wonderfulmagicalworld
Is it my imagination, or is Emma's hair looking more ginger all the time?
-
ROFL!!!!!!!!! Oh Dee...the teacher's pet is back eh?
Yup---gives apple to teacher.
I just say that there is more to their relationship than we get to see in RL...they are both very private people and I love them for that...even IF they were to end up with other people (HUGE IF BTW
)Kris, with statements like this--you can put yourself in TO!!
Ok yall if ya dont hear from me for the remainder of the week means that Hurrican Sandy has turned off our power! They said if we lose power, it could take up to a week to get it back!!!!! My New York and New Jersey buddies on here, please stay safe!! Yall are supposed to the brunt of it!!
Be safe all--it's supposed to rain/snow/hail or in other words a "SNOWICANE"!!

In their own words:
Emma:“Rupert’s comic timing is just brilliant, he’s so funnyâ€
“I am a big fan of Rupertâ€
“I love Rupert ‘cause’s got the best comic timing out of everyoneâ€
“I think is absolutely hilarious. He can make me laugh like no one elseâ€
“Rupert is magic, lovely, amazing…â€
“Everytime we aren’t filiming I miss them a lot. Especially Rupert, who I can’t text. It’s really not fair!â€
“Rupert is a hell of a lot taller and broader…He’s very broad nowâ€
“I had to go for large. He got so broad!â€
“Rupert got a great sense of humorâ€
“Kissing Rupert is gonna be so awkward but girls would be probaly giving their left arm so I’m not complainingâ€
“You know, he’s a gentleman and he’s a great kisserâ€
“If I had to kiss anyone, I’m glad it was himâ€
“He’s just such a lovely guyâ€
“We had fun with it aswell so I’ll guess we enjoyed it tooâ€
“Oh I think Rupert is gorgeous, he is, he’s totally gorgeous, very handsome, very handsome indeedâ€
“Rupes I want to give you some of my money to you spend for meâ€
“We were happy with it†(about the kiss)
“I loved the scene where Rupert…no Ron! I keep mixing them up *laughs* It’s hard, keeping characters apart from yourselfâ€
(interviewer: do you find red-headed men attractive in real life?)
“Yeah! I think Rupert’s very handsome.â€
(interviewer: He’s got a lot of women who really fancy him!)
“Yeah! Totally! He lookin’ good…he’s…totally. Definitely! Definitely!â€
(interviewer: Good. Good. Katie wants to know, Emma, if you had to choose between Ron and Harry in real life, who would you choose?
Em: Ron.
interviewer: really?)
“Yeah, I know…I know you don’t believe me. But I just think…I think I’m quite similar to Hermione and I think that a Ron-type character in my life would be good for me. He’s very chilled out, he’s very funny. You know I think it’s so nice to have someone in your life who makes you laugh…like I think that’s such a good, valuable quality. (notes: Chilled out and funny? This is Rupert, not Ron, you know that Emma)
“Interviewer: Now, in the movie, your, your character is attracted to Ron.
Emma: Yes.
Interviewer: Now, in real life, is that type of guy that you like, like a Rupert type of guy. A red-hair.
Emma: Yeah!
Interviewer: Yeah?
Emma: I think, yeah, he is like, Ron. Rupert is kinda funny, kinda laid back, he’s cool, yeah. I think being able to make someone laugh, and is a really, is a really good quality.â€
Rupert:
“Emma and I are good matesâ€
“Emma is a great girlâ€
“Emma is like a member of the family nowâ€
“She’s really clever and she’s got a good sense of humorâ€
“Emma is lovely and everythingâ€
“It wasn’t horrible, cause she’s a lovely girlâ€
(about this “I want you to take a look on your girlfriend over thereâ€) “She’s…yeah, she’s looking goodâ€
Daniel:
“I think they have enjoyed a little bit to much, I thinkâ€(about the kiss)
The statement where she says "I had to go for Large" I think she was talking about the t-shirts she buys him.
The statement he made "She's like a member of the family now"--meaning she's at the Grints' house when she's with Rupert.
Remember what she said:"I'm going to meet Dan at restaurants (public), and Rupert at his house". (private)
I think she texts Rupert now. He doesn't go on Twitter or Facebook. That would just be way too obvious!!
How much longer will they try to hide their relationship???
-
ON a technicality though, I think Emma is wrong in making that quote about Rupert... true, she never so much as pecked him on the OUTSIDE of the cheek, but I think the inside of his cheek may have gotten a thorough tongue wash from Emma.
Jon--Dude---Kris is so going to put you in TO!! HIGH FIVE!!!
On second thoughts I was just thinking-- maybe she was messing with us shippers---again!!! I'm sure her fellow Potter
cast members would say quite the opposite!! I don't think she ever missed a chance to hug, kiss, admire, touch, laugh or
hold her ginger man!! Remember---Emma is all PublicDA---Rupert in PrivateDA.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-xLhO900pvI&list=FLIQKKPHibkiXY5cPcX7cY6Q&index=1&feature=plpp_video
Emma discussed her relationships with different cast members, and how there was no romance at all between herself and Rupert or Daniel Radcliffe (she says “I never so much as pecked one of them on the cheekâ€), but that she did have a crush on Tom Felton, Draco Malfoy, when she was 10 because “he was a few years older than me and had a skateboard.â€
Ummmm.... The video-previously posted by Luciana (nice find)--says it all. She wants us all to think that she hasn't seen Rupert since July 2011--@ the NY premiere?? That's just sad.
Btw, the above quote was made Sept 29, 2012--a few weeks ago.
-
Did you all notice every time HR makes her entrance in the movies, she's always w/the Weasleys?? She
just happens to be at the Burrow/or House of Black. I think JKR was setting the table early
on for their marriage.
-
Ummmmm.....ok--so how long did you say I have to stay in TO????
What was the last movie you watched?
in Movies and Television
Posted
The Impossible--Naomi Watts should get the Oscar for this role!!!
