The IT List- Part 1


Ou my Fave kind of blog, dishing out all the goods and bads in my own opinion of course! Let's get right to it.

My IT List!
#1A) Rob Schneider & Adam Sandler
So my two favorite actors of all time, are Rob Schneider, and Mr. Adam Sandler. These two are more than just best pals, they're also comedic geniuses who, let's face it, always pull a win at the box office. Both Schneider and Sandler very often star in or appear in cameos of each other's movies. Some of the films Rob & Adam star in together include: Big Daddy (1999), Little Nicky (2000), The Animal (2001), Mr. Deeds (2002), The Hot Chick (2002), Eight Crazy Nights (2002), 50 First Dates (2004), The Longest Yard (2005), Deuce Bigalow: European Gigolo (2005), Click (2006), I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry (2007), Bedtime Stories (2008), You Don't Mess With the Zohan (2008), Grown Ups (2010) and more. Although these two have a strong bond as best friends, the majority of Sandler's movies also star and feature several of Schneider's and Sandler's friends including Allen Covert, Peter Dante, Steve Buscemi, Jonathan Loughran and more. When your friends with Sandler, you're more than likely to star in more than one of his films. Dylan and Cole Sprouse, famous for their film debut shared-role as 'Julian' in Big Daddy, also appeared in Eight Crazy Nights as the two toy soldiers. The two are now even more famous from their hit Disney Channel shows The Suite Life of Zach and Cody, as well as the spin-off; The Suite Life on Deck. Point- Adam Sandler and Rob Schneider have so much theatrical range and comedic essence about them, it's hard not to fall in love with every film they make. Below I've posted scenes/trailers from my favorite Sandler & Schneider films.
Big Daddy Trailer (1999) | Big Daddy Scene (1999) | Litte Nicky Trailer (2000) | The Animal Trailer (2001) | Mr. Deeds Trailer (2002) | 50 First Dates Trailer (2004) | The Longest Yard (2005) | The Hot Chick Trailer (2002) Eight Crazy Nights Trailer (2002) | Click Trailer (2006) | I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry Trailer (2007) |

I'll Trade You...


The United States and Canada, share more than just the longest border in the world, they basically share each others money and resources. This immense trade agreement places increasing tension on both countries with the fear of a greater recession. In 2008, only 21% of all US Exports were designated to Canada and only 16.5 % were from Canadian imports. Even though these numbers seem small, you have to think that you're talking about every single nation on this Earth. 21% of exports and 16.5% of imports may seem like small numbers, but its the largest percentage than with any other nation. The US imports and exports more with Canada than any other nation. With this being said, is Canada more reliant on the United States? With their percentages being extravagantly higher? In 2008, 75.5% of ALL Canadian Exports were to the United States alone. 63.4% of the total Imports were from the United States. The gap between both nation's trade levels are clearly different, nonetheless its relevant to say that if one country or the other were to face severe bankruptcy or extreme recession, the other would be hit just as hard. Canada & The United States are family, they'll always be best friends! Now let's all think of a way to evict Harper immediately!

The Prophecies of 2012



The Winter Solstice of 2012. The exact date of December 21, 2012 is the most controversial date in all of history. It is the precise date of the prediction of the end of the world. Nothing has struck up such controversy on Earth before. Why this one particular date? What can scientists, philosophers and ordinary people decode and conclude it to mean? There are millions of theories regarding the future prediction, and based on historical evidence I've found from researching the evidence of others, here's what I've found. *Keep in mind none of the facts below are in my own opinion or of my own personal findings. However everything has been re-written free of any legitimate plagiarism.*

There are several historical, as well as modern prophecies that all conclude December 21st, 2012 as being the end of civilization, and overall the end of the World. This date has been drawn back as the end of time in the Mayan Calender, the Ancient Chinese 'I-Ching", as well as an internet program created to determine stocks called 'Web bot'. All of these prophesies share several accuracies in common.

The days we live in right now, were predicted long long ago. Predictions of war, famine, natural disasters, rises and falls of empires and economies- all elements of what has been predicted centuries before current time's arrival. Some of these predictions have come from The Bible, the Temples of Ancient Rome, Pyramids of Ancient Maya, the Chinese 'I-Ching', and the Internet.

The Ancient Myans created a calender so accurrate that it could predict lunar eclipses as well as solar, planetary and lunar cycles literally thousands of years into the future. What's strange about this calendar is that it all comes to an end on one very specific date: December 21, 2012. The Mayan Calender gives a very specific time line for Apocalypse than any other in the world by revealing the specific Year, Month and Day. The Mayans flourished in Central America during the time between 6-9AD. The Mayan Calendar is more accurate than the calendars used in today's time. The Mayans spent over 1000 years looking back into previous civilizations in order to piece together and predict when this transformation was going to occur. The Calendar is prophetic. In the 8th Century AD, it predicted that "white skinned bearded Gods" would arrive from travels across the ocean on March 5th, 1519. On that very specific date, Hernan Cortez and his conquistadors had made arrival in the New World from Spain. There is much debate on whether the calendar was prophetically correct, or it was mere coincidence. The true answer is more than important, for the Mayan Calendar also predicts the End of the World. "Hunab Ku" is the Mayan name for what is now modernly known as "Dooms Day", it is the day where the sun will shine in the dark rift located in the centre of the Milky Way Galaxy. Modern astronomers have learned that indeed there IS in fact a "dark rift" or more commonly known as a Black Hole in the Middle of the Milky Way Galaxy.

On December 21, 2012, the Earth will be in exact alignment with our sun, and the centre of the Milky Way. This galactic event only occurs Once every 25,800 years. Geophysicists have come up with a theory that is shockingly similar to the events predicted by the Mayan alignment. This phenomenon is more commonly known as "pole shift". During this, the entire mantle of the Earth shifts within a course of only a few days, even hours. This is the alteration of the positioning of the North and South poles. Worldwide disasters such as Earthquakes hitting ever continent, massive hurricanes and tsunami's would completely overtake coastal regions, and would ultimately be the largest planetary catastrophe. Although this theory seems unrealistic, it is backed up by Science. Albert Einstein was the first to suggest this theory in 1955, and a new study from Princeton University suggests that the poles have shifted before; the North pole was located in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, 800 Million years ago, making Alaska located on the Equator. Even if the pole changes took several years to occur, it would result in raised sea levels and global climate change, if it were to happen rapidly, it would cause global disasters and mass extinction of species.

This identical "dooms day" date has also been predicted by Ancient Chinese through the oldest Chinese text called the "I CHING", translated into "The Book of Changes". The I Ching is used most commonly for personal fortune-telling. One asks a question from the text, then tossed three coins. If the outcome is mostly tails, you draw a straight line. If the outcome is mostly heads, you draw a broken line. This method is repeated six times so that there will be a series of six lines accounted for; this is also called a Hexagram. In this hexagram, there are 64 possible combinations. There are small texts appended to each of the 64 combinations which are said to tell the future. After looking up the meaning behind the hexagram of your question, you will find an answer astonishingly relevant to the question asked. However, Scientific rationalists claim that the evocative language of the I Ching only makes it 'appear' accurate.

Contoversial Researcher Terrance Mckenna, took realization in an unrecognized pattern of the 64 hexagrams of the I Ching. The 6 lines and 64 combinations can be used as a ratio of change and plotted on a graph. McKenna mapped this graph over a time line and found astonishingly accurate relations for all of the 4000 years of recorded history. His graph time line begins in the beginning of China's Shang Dynasty, the same period of the beginning of civilization in other regions of the world. the 64 hexagrams repeat 64 times over history. McKenna named this theory "Time Wave Zero". This elevations and falls of his I Ching graph appear to accurately match the predictions of the Fall of the Roman Empire, the Discovery of the New World, and the World Wars of the 20th Century. The oddest thing of all was that Mckenna's time line came to a complete end on one precise date: December 21, 2012.

The time scale of some of the more traditional South American prophesies is the same as the Medieval Welsh Prophecies of Merlin. Merlin was considered of of Europe's greatest Oracles. his prophesies included those of Terrorist Attacks, Global Warming and Planetary Catastrophes. The legends of Merlin begin in Ancient England, the prophecies were published in 1135 AD but were based on texts that were written in the 5th Century. The texts described Merlin as being a Celtic Shaman, half man, half demon. The name Merlin is an English version of an old Welsh name- Myrddin. Merlin was known as the "half crazed man of the forest." There has been speculation surrounding the legitimacy of 'Merlin's' being. The name Merlin is more of a title, rather than a name for an individual. Writers, historians and researchers believe that there has been 2 or 3 historical people given that title. The prophecies of Merlin predicted events that occured centuries of years into the future. 1000 years before the mere known existence of America, Merlin predicted the first American Colony by name. "A colony shall be founded by Virgins in Virgin soil." Merlin also predicted the British victory over Napoleon at Waterloo and had foresaw the tragedies of the Nazi holocausts. Merlin's prophecies for the 20th Century that are remarkably astonishing. he first predicts a disaster in England (Great Britain). "The seven seas discharge itself and the river burns for seven months. Fishes shall die and shall grow multiple tails."- Merlin. The Severn River of great Britain hosts home to the Nuclear power Stations of Great Britain, describing a potential nuclear meltdown. "London shall mourn from the death of 20,000 and the River Tems (Thames River) shall turn to blood."- Merlin "The seas shall rise, the winds shall fight together with a dreadful blast."- Merlin. Merlin;s ancient predictions of submersion are frighteningly similar to modern day scientists prediction of Global Warming. The Prophecies of Merlin end in it's own version of a fatal Apocalypse. According to Merlin's predicted apocalypse, "the planets will run out of their appointed paths, and the planets run riot through the signs." The only logical and possible way that this could occur, is if our planet's rotation changes. Merlin's prophecies also reflect the Mayan's prediction of Polar Shift.

"When pictures look alive with movements free, when ships like fishes swim beneath the sea, when men outstripping birds can fly the skies, then half the world deep drenched in blood shall die."- Mother Shipton, another known Oracle who lived in Yorkshire England in the early 1500's, centuries after the prophecies of Merlin were recorded. She was born with human and "other-world's" spirit. Within her biography written in the 1600's, Mother Shipton accurately predicted the death of Henry VIII as well as the defeat of the Spanish Armada. She also had predicted Queen Victoria by name, and had predicted the World Wars I and II. 1641 was the first year Mother Shipton's Prophecies made it to print, however when scholars tried to configure the tracking of the original texts, none were found, leaving no evidence of the actual existence of Mother Shipton. It has been suggested that Mother Shipton was created by London writer Richard Head in 1684, who's plummeting writing career was uptaken when he began publishing the prophecies. Richard head has said that"Mother Shipton" also predicted the Great Plague as well as the London Fire of 1666. he could get away with this because he was writing about these events years after they had occurred. The shocking fact about this uncertainty in events, was even if Richard Head had indeed created the fictional character of Mother Shipton, his later predictions came to be accurate. "In the air men shall be seen, around the world thoughts will sly in the twinkling of an eye, owmen dress like men in trousers wear, and cut off all their locks of hair. Mother Shipton."- Mother Shipton.

The Holy Bible is the most legendary source of prophecies. Jesus predicted that Jerusalem would be destroyed by the Romans and it happened. The book of Revelation predicted that Apocalyptic "war fare" in the near future. The Book of Revelation was written by a man named "John". John predicted bizarre and strange things. "Flying creatures with streaming hair making the noise of a thousand horses, self propelled chariots belching in flames, diseases that kill one quarter of the Earth." John also foresaw a time of global war-fare centred in the middle east and foresaw the rise and fall of a "demonic world leader, the anti-christ." The Book of Revelation was written basically as an introduction to the events about to occur during the Apocalypse. Biblical Scholars today place questions about the direct link regarding the Book of Revelation and the current events taking place today. Many people believe that the Book of Revelation was merely a set of codes, however these codes were actually meant to reflect John's time (over 2000 years ago). The Book of Revelation began the symbolic meaning behind the dreaded number of "666"- which according to the Book of Revelation is the "mark of the beast". Others have theoretically examined it to be a numerical code for the anti-christ, a modern day demonic world leader. Some historians have said that the number "666" may have a connection to the Ancient Greek leader Nero, who was a persecutor of Christian believers. The numerological deciphering of Emperor Nero's name adds up precisely to the number 666. The Prophecies within the Book of Revelation were reflections on the Roman Empire times but people today believe that it has a strikingly similar connection with the 2012 prophecy of our time.

In 1890, a Native American named Black Elk claimed to have a series of dreams referring to the soon-to-come Apocalypse. Black Elk predicted that after his own people had been destroyed, there was going to be an even bigger apocalypse affecting the entire world. "All over the Universe, I could hear the winds roar like wild beasts fighting. It was dark and terrible about me, like rapid gun fire, and a world of smoke, like women and children whaling and screaming all over the world."- Black Elk.

The newest form of prophesies comes from an oracle not even human. "The Web Bot Project" is the name of this foretelling program created in the late 1990's as a program to predict stock changes. The idea behind the Web Bot Project was that the program would scan massive amounts of languages would be gathered and hit a direct link to the collective unconscious and a hopeful insight into the future. The Web Bot's predictions are impressively accurate. In August of 2004, the Web Bot made a prediction of mass earthquakes resulting in approximately 300,000 deaths and substantial water lever increases relative to the earthquakes. This prediction deemed to have direct relation to the Asian Tsunami in December 2004. This Web Bot also predicted the Anthrax attacks in Washington DC in 2001, the massive power-outage of East Coast North America in August 2003, and the destruction of Hurricane Katrina in 2005. According the Web bots, a series of world wide catastrophes reaches its peak in the year 2012.

Swine-1-1. Call the pandemics!!!!

Ok, so maybe it doesn't sound too much like "9-1-1, call the paramedics", but i tried. So yes ladies and gentlemen, I was caught off guard and dragged down to become the next victim of the H1N1 virus, and let me just say, it's been NO easy trip! I'm on my almost 3rd day of having this horrendous virus, and with the exception of maybe 2-3 hours a day, I am overall weak to the extent of not even being able to move my arms, or head, or even eyelids. My fevers fluctuate up and down, just like the nurse said it would do. From 102.4 up to 102.7 and then back down to 99.8, (I may be Canadian but come on people Fahrenheit all the way!) all of this is taking its toll on me so negatively, that sometimes, I really do feel like giving up.


For those of you who don't live on planet Earth...... uhm.... I mean who "don't know", the H1N1 virus, is NOT the swine flu virus. For you see, they are different. H1N1 consists of 3 main elements: the avian flu, a human flu, and yes, the swine flu. However, the swine flu simply just is. H1N1 is a combination of these 3 glorious viruses, wrapped up in a gift basket from HELL!

I lay in bed. It's 9 in the morning. The sun reflects off the building across from mine, and into my bedroom. A blinding eye wouldn't seem so bad right about now. I try to turn my head, but there is limited response due to extreme fatigue. It's hard to answer questions, or even respond in conversation. My words are minimal and weak. With every inch of my body in brutal aching pain, my mother helps me to sit up, its time for Tylenol and a Vitamin C capsule. I can't hold the glass of juice, I can barely keep my mouth closed long enough to swallow the god forsaken pill. I fall back down, and lay. I'm overheated, and shivering at the same time. I definitely under minded the power of this virus. The thoughts are all I have right now. They start to give me a harsher headache, and everything I try, always seems to fail. Sleeping is difficult, I can only sleep for 2 hours, then I awake with the same staggering pain I left behind as soon as I fell asleep.

The Tylenol kicks in, and for about an hour or two a day, I have the ability to actually move, to actually have a normal feeling head, and to actually open my eyes and view the world with ease. In this time, I like to briefly check things on the computer, and go on back to bed to watch a movie or two. I like movies, it creates somewhat of a diversion from real life. That's why it's been the biggest industry of all time basically. During the great depression, Entertainment, was the only Industry that withstood the poverty and distress.

At this moment... I'm growing weaker. My fingertips seem to be slurring, my eyes grow heavy, my temperature heats up, and I am full of endlessly tired muscles.
