The Rundown Or Welcome to the Jungle (2003)

Storyline:

n the always rough, have-to-be tough urban jungle of Los Angeles, there are men like Beck...well, not exactly like Beck--a man who uses whatever means are necessary to retrieve whatever he is paid to bring back. A marker, a late payment or a Super Bowl ring from a quarterback with gambling debts--Beck doesn't differentiate and simply relies on his wits, his "let's get this over with" attitude and his devastating physical prowess to get the job done. For him, it's a simple, multiple-choice world: (A) Beck's way, (B) Beck's way with force, or (C)... there is no "C." Beck doesn't go looking for trouble, and he doesn't like making trouble for anyone, either. Unfortunately, trouble is what he's hired to clean up, and there's one final mess he's got to get out of before he can leave it all behind. At the center of his current trouble is a wise-ass named Travis, a fast-talking double dealer whose dad has commissioned Beck to retrieve from a lingering adventure in Brazil. Travis proves to be more of a handful than Beck expected, not only because of his mouth and his heels-dug-in reluctance to leave, but because of a couple of other complications he brings with him: Mariana, a no-nonsense local who holds the answers to some of the jungle's hidden mysteries, and Hatcher, an unhinged despot who has turned the jungle and its inhabitants into his own fortune-making, gold-mining empire. The rundown: Beck is after a guy... who's after a fortune... and now everybody's after them. So he's going to have to unleash everything he's got to keep on top of his smack-talking quarry, the girl with the secret, the crazy tyrant, the horny monkeys, the hallucinogenic fruit, the backs-to-the-wall rebels, the perilous terrain, the hidden traps and every other obstacle that this jungle throws at him.Info: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0327850/

Guitar

The guitar is a musical instrument with ancient roots that is used in a wide variety of musical styles. It typically has six strings, but four, seven, eight, ten, and twelve string guitars also exist.
Guitars are recognized as one of the primary instruments in blues, country, flamenco, rock music, and many forms of pop. They can also be a solo classical instrument. Guitars may be played acoustically, where the tone is produced by vibration of the strings and modulated by the hollow body, or they may rely on an amplifier that can electronically manipulate tone. Such electric guitars were introduced in the 20th century and continue to have a profound influence on popular culture.
Traditionally guitars have usually been constructed of combinations of various woods and strung with animal gut, or more recently, with either nylon or steel strings. Guitars are made and repaired by luthiers.

How to Play Guitar

The guitar is especially versatile not only because it can be used in a wide variety of styles of music (from death metal to country to classical and everything in between) but also because it's more approachable than many other instruments, once you master a few basics as outlined below. It may take you years to get the basics down, and you'll need formal instruction at some point, but this simplified overview can get you started today.

Steps :

The "height" (top/bottom) is how high or low the sound is.Tune your guitar. This will not only help your playing sound better, but it'll also familiarize you with which string and fret combinations correspond with which notes. A useful mnemonic to remember the string arrangement is "Every Body Gets Dinner At Eight" (going from high E to low E).
Guitarists have their own system of music notation called guitar tablature, or "guitar tabs" for short. The basic idea is to look at the tab in the same way you look at your guitar; each line corresponds to a string, and each number tells you which fret to hold down when plucking that string.
E---------------3-0--------------------
B-------------------3-0----------------
G---7-7-7---------------2-0------------
D-2-7-7-7-7-7-7------------------------
A-2-5-5-5-7-7-7------------------------
E-0-------5-5-5------------------------

On the first fretPlace your fingers correctly on the frets. Right-handed players use their left hand for fretting and vice versa. The frets are the metal strips that run perpendicular to the strings. You actually press your finger down between the metal strips, not on them. For example, if you're playing the third fret, you place your finger on the string between the second and third metal strip. Hold the string down firmly so that it only vibrates between your finger and your strumming hand. Place your finger as close to the fret as possible to create a good sound.

C Major chordWhen you hold down multiple strings at once at different frets (to play chords), it can be a little tricky (especially if you have short, inflexible fingers). There are usually several different ways to position your fingers for the same chord, so research them and experiment to find which one feels most comfortable for you.
Keep in mind that every time you move from one fret to another, the resulting pitch will be half a step higher or lower (i.e. "sharp" or "flat"). This is important for if you want to eventually read and play from sheet music.
Some people find that placing the thumb in the middle of the back of the neck, not coming over the top, leads to better finger placement because it allows better reach and strength of the fingers on the frets. Ultimately, however, do what feels best for you.
Strum with your other hand. This can be the most difficult part to learn without having a teacher demonstrate. Strumming consists of downstrokes and upstrokes in various combinations. Count every beat and off-beat as "1 and 2 and 3 and 4 and..." (every "and" is an offbeat). Each beat and offbeat can be an upstroke, downstroke, or no stroke. No matter which direction you use, make an effort to sweep across all of the strings with even pressure and steady speed. You don't want to strum some strings a little harder than others, or start off fast then slow down as you get to the last few strings. The motion should come mostly from the wrist, not the forearm.
You can do this with a pick or with your fingertips. There are various kinds of picks you can use, but beginners are usually advised to start with a thin pick, held between the thumb and the side of the index finger.
Keep your arm going in a constant up-and-down motion, sticking with a rhythm whether or not you're actually strumming. This motion functions as a metronome for beginners. As you get better at strumming, you can tap your foot, bob your head, or jerk your knee like Elvis instead Practice chords. A chord is a group of notes that sound good together. The reason they sound good together lies in music theory, but for now, learning how to play a few key chords will suffice. Practice until you can move comfortably between them without losing your rhythm.
The most commonly used chords in Western music are the major chords, which can be remembered with the word "CAGED". Click on any of the following links for specific instructions on how to play each chord:
C Major
A Major
G Major
E Major
D Major
Learn to play some songs. Start off with easier songs - ones with fewer chords in simpler arrangements. Listen to the song being played properly with guitar so you know what kind of sound and rhythm to aim for. Start off slow and speed up gradually, singing along (if applicable) to stick with the rhythm. As you master easier songs, move on to more complex pieces. Sweet Home Alabama by Lynyrd Skynyrd is an example of an easier song to start with. It's basically a repetition of the same three chords in the following order: D, C, G.

Tips

A good book about how to play the guitar can help you to learn or improve a particular skill or style.
Although price is not a great indicator of quality, most very inexpensive guitars will have issues that can make play more difficult. For example, frets can be raised too high resulting in buzz as the string contacts them inappropriately. Or a neck that has excessive or too little curve. If possible, take an experienced guitarist with you when going to buy a guitar and make sure you play before you buy, get one that feels right for you.
Most guitars have many hand-made parts, no matter what the price range. So, quality can vary between guitars of the same model. Once you decide on a particular model, be sure to inspect each guitar of that model in the store and choose the best one.
Practice fingerpicking. Look up some fingerpicking patterns online, or, for bonus points, try to figure out the patterns of some of your favorite guitar songs.

Film director
A film director, or filmmaker, is a person who directs the making of a film.A film director visualizes the script, controlling a film's artistic and dramatic aspects, while guiding the technical crew and actors in the fulfillment of their vision.
However, film directors do not in all countries have absolute artistic control. The director can also be selected by the producer. The producer can in this case have veto power over everything from the script itself to the final cut of the film, often in anywhere from slight to extreme opposition to the director's vision.
When directing episodes for a television show, a director's responsibilities are somewhat diminished, as the visual look and feel of the series is already established, usually by the person billed as the show's creator or executive producer. Those directors who choose or are chosen to work in TV traditionally have had to accept that they will not be as lauded, or as well-paid, as their big-screen counterparts.

Responsibilities

A film director is responsible for overseeing every creative aspect of a film. They develop a vision for a film, decide how it should look, what tone it should have, and what an audience should gain from the cinematic experience. He/she is in short the storyteller. Film directors are responsible for approving every camera angle, lens effect, lighting, and set design occasionally even taking part in the hiring of key crew members. They coordinate the actors moves, determine camera angles, and may be involved in the writing, financing, and editing of a film. The director works closely with the cast and crew to shape the film and may often take suggestions on pertinent issues. Some like to conduct rigorous rehearsals in preproduction while others do so before each scene. In either case this process is essential as it tells the director as well as other key members of the crew (Director of Photography, Stunt Choreographer, Hair Stylist etc) how the actors are going to play the scene, which enables them to make any necessary adjustments. The Director also plays a key role in post-production. The Director oversees the editing of the scenes with the editor to ensure that the emotions of the scene and the close ups, mid shots and wide shots appropriately reflect who (the character) is driving the scene. The Director also inputs into the (color) grading of the final images adding warmth or frigidity to the composition of the scenes to reflect the emotional subtext of the character or environment. The Director also participates in the sound mix and musical composition of the film.

QUIT SMOKING NOW----> 12 easy ways 2 quit

Today renew your pledge to quit smoking...If you have tried to quit smoking and failed before, take comfort in the fact that most smokers fail several times before quitting successfully.

Your past failures are not a lesson that you are unable to quit. Instead, view them as part of the normal journey toward becoming a nonsmoker.

Here are the 12 ways

Here are 12 techniques that will help you quit the habit.
Remember - you can do it!

1. Deep Breathing Perhaps The Single Most Powerful And Important Technique: Every time you want a cigarette, do the following. Do it three times.

Inhale the deepest lung-full of air you can, and then, very slowly, exhale. Purse your lips so that the air must come out slowly. As you exhale, close your eyes, and let your chin gradually sink over onto your chest. Visualize all the tension leaving your body, slowly draining out of your fingers and toes, just flowing on out.

This is a variation of a yoga technique and is very relaxing. If you practice this, you'll be able to use it for any future stressful situation you find yourself in. And it will be your greatest weapon during the strong cravings sure to assault you over the first few days

Quit point 02

2. Taking In Fluids:
The first few days, drink LOTS of water and fluids to help flush out the nicotine and other poisons from your body.

Remember that the urge to smoke only lasts a few minutes, and will then pass. The urges gradually become farther and farther apart as the days go by.

Quit point 03

3. Stay Away From Alcohol, Sugar And Coffee
Do your very best to stay away from alcohol, sugar and coffee the first week or longer, as these tend to stimulate the desire for a cigarette. Avoid fatty foods, as your metabolism will slow down a bit without the nicotine, and you may gain weight even if you eat the same amount as before quitting. So discipline about diet is extra important now. No one ever said acquiring new habits would be easy!

Nibble on low calorie foods like celery, apples and carrots. Chew gum or suck on cinnamon sticks.

Stretch out your meals; eat slowly and wait a bit between bites.

After dinner, instead of a cigarette, treat yourself to a cup of mint tea or a peppermint candy.

Quit point 04

4.Taking An Oral Substitute >>
one study, about 25% of quitters found that an oral substitute was invaluable. Another 25% didn't like the idea at all - they wanted a clean break with cigarettes. The rest weren't certain.

One can use cinnamon sticks, chewing gum or artificial cigarettes as a substitute. You will mostly find that after the first week of being a non smoker, you wouldn’t even need these.

Quit point 05

5. Get Exercising
Go to a gym, sit in the steam, exercise. Change your normal routine – take time to walk or even jog around the block or in the local park.

Quit point 06

6.Pamper Yourself
Go ahead and join a yoga class or maybe reiki – they're great! Get a one hour massage, take a long bath - pamper yourself. Get yourself involved in a hobby.

Quit point 07

7. Ask For Support
Ask for support from co-workers, friends and family members. Ask for their tolerance. Let them know you're quitting, and that you might be edgy or grumpy for a few days. If you don't ask for support, you certainly won't get any. If you do, you'll be surprised how much it can help. Take a chance - try it and see!

Ask friends and family members not to smoke in your presence. Don't be afraid to ask. This is more important than you may realize.

Quit point 08

8. Destroy All Your Cigarettes
On your quit day, hide all ashtrays and destroy all your cigarettes, preferably with water, so no part of them is smokeable.

Quit pOint 09

9. Write It Down
Write down ten good things about being a nonsmoker - and then write out ten bad things about

Quit point 10

10. Don’t Pretend
Don't pretend smoking wasn't enjoyable – it was. This is like losing a good friend – and it's okay to grieve the loss. Feel that grief, don't worry, it's okay. Feel, and you heal. Stay with it - you can do it!

Quit point 11

11. Affirm Yourself
Several times a day, quietly repeat to yourself the affirmation, "I am a nonsmoker." Many quitters see themselves as smokers who are just not smoking for the moment. They have a self-image as smokers who still want a cigarette.

Silently repeating the affirmation "I am a nonsmoker" will help you change your view of yourself, and, even if it may seem silly to you, this is actually useful. Use it!

quit Point 12

12. Holding Out

Here is perhaps the most valuable information among these points. In Phase 2, the period which begins a few weeks after quitting, the urges to smoke will subside considerably.

However, it's vital to understand that from time to time, you will still be suddenly overwhelmed with a desire for "just one cigarette." This will happen unexpectedly, during moments of stress, whether negative stress or positive (at a party, or on vacation). If you are unprepared to resist, succumbing to that "one cigarette" will lead you directly back to smoking.

Remember the following secret: in these surprise attacks during Phase 2 - and they will definitely come - do your deep breathing, and hold on for five minutes, and the urge will pass

In conclusion
Remember that if you quit you will live longer and feel better. Quitting will lower your chances of having a heart attack, stroke, or cancer. The people you live with, especially children, will be healthier. If you are pregnant, you will improve your chances of having a healthy baby. And you will have extra money to spend on things other than cigarettes.

So get the information and support you need to make the stopping process a little easier. Seek the help of family and friends, and most important decide you want to do it and visualize yourself as a non-smoker.

Men'S FasHion TiPs..........

Q) How to choose the best color for your skin complexion and hair color

Ans:-
To discuss about color coordination and mens complexion is difficult. Most men do not possess the knowledge of distinguishing mens complexion and so color coordination would be difficult.
But there are some men with a good feel about such mens skin tones and color would appreciate this discussion easily.
Firstly mens complexion encompasses various attributes on a mens face. Skin tone and hair color influences most part of the complexion, followed by the eye color.
Our main objective when matching clothes to our complexion is to divert the focus onto our face, and not the clothes. So color coordination and mens complexion should be eventually shift the focal point to the man and never the clothes.
The reason is we wear the clothes and not let the clothes wear us. Proper mens fashion coordination brings out the best in our personality and features which belongs only to the person when coupled with the clothes. So make sure the blend of the clothing color strengthen the focal point on the face.
Two strategies that we can employ when doing color coordination and mens complexion:
Base on the degree of differentiation between the skin tone and hair color, we would use the same level of contrast to apply toward our clothing color coordination
Use similar color hues in our clothing to blend it against our facial skin pigment, hair color, or eye color to accentuate the facial focus.

Q) How to mix and match patterns with style

Ans:-
Whenever I start mixing patterns for my wardrobe, I discover boundless combinations and versatility in mens fashion.
The challenges get more intense when attempts are made at coordinating three or four different patterns at the same time.
It seems that there exists a certain level of skill in achieving harmony between the patterns on mens clothing. And this skill is attainable by any man through various trial and error.
The capability to ascertain and visualize the art of mixing patterns becomes better with each successful or erroneous combination. Practice makes Perfect!
Problem with combining similar patterns or different patterns is that there is always a chance of ending with a crowded or discord look. This happens when the patterns looks congested on the man.
We want to attain a sense of balance between the patterns with a sophiscated appeal without the impression of being too trying to be one.
Naturalness about the mens personality should be reflective by mixing patterns with style.
It is exactly these stylish matching of patterns that catches people’s eyes or at least my eyes. There is a clear representation the man knows what he is doing and what he wants.
Business associates or customers will usually have a better impression of a man with good matching sense – a sign of meticulous touch.

The 7 Deadly Shopping Sins

* Wearing lace-up shoes--you'll double your time in the changing room.

* Spending more than you should on trendy items. If you absolutely must have
that silver lame blouse, set a limit before you get to the store.

* Buying on impulse just because something is on sale.

* Using a credit card when you can spare the cash.

* Shopping without a list, even if it's just in your head.

* Looking like a sch lump when you shop. If you don't put some effort into your
hair and makeup, you'll feel like nothing looks good on you.

* Shopping with your husband. Why torture one another?

ShoP aS u LikE.....

The All-Time, Best-Ever, Never-Fail, A-Number-One Figure Do: Learn to love your body, flaws and all.
Figure It Out
Do...
* Buy elastic-waist pants and skirts--they're more comfortable.

* Emphasize your best feature: Great legs? Wear short skirts.

* Create balance by wearing shoulder pads--they can make your hips look smaller.

* Wear loose, comfortable clothes in soft, drapey fabrics. They're forever forgiving.

* Road test bodyshaper pantyhose before you wear them.

* Buy a supportive bra--everything will fit better.

* Wear dark opaque hose or tights with short skirts.

* Match hose to shoes for a slimming silhouette.

* Choose belts that match your pants for an unbroken line.

* Opt for pinstripes rather than wide vertical stripes. Do... Make sure your hemline suits your legs:

* If you love your legs, anywhere above the knee is fine. (Above midthigh is pushing it, though, no matter what your legs look like.)

* For heavy legs, go below the bottom of the calf.

* If you have heavy ankles, stick to longer lengths, but don't try to cover them since you only trip on your hem. Slip on a pair of matching opaque hose instead.

* Treat yourself to a new outfit when you lose a few pounds.

* Opt for jackets with soft, body-skimming lines.

* Take advantage of cover-it-all tunic tops.

* Wear layers of streamlined knits, not bulky ones. They're universally flattering.

* Make sure you have one outfit that you know you'll feel good in--even on "fat" days.

Don't...


* Wear a skimpy dress unless you're sure that you look good in it--absolutely sure.

* Fall victim to the whims of fashion and wear ultrawide-leg pants--especially if you're petite.

* Reveal too much when you wear leggings. Even if your rear end is supertoned, always wear a top that covers it

. * Buy pants or skirts without checking out your rear view. And when you try on pants, always sit down in them.

Figure Fantasy vs. Figure Fact

Big, bulky clothes will hide my figure. They'll also add pounds to it.

Prints will make me look bigger. No, as long as the print is small. Buying something a size too small will inspire me to lose weight. Maybe, but it's much more likely that you'll never wear it.

Shopping

Do...

* Buy things that go with at least two other things you already own.

* Shop in consignment shops.

* Ask salespeople to call you when they know there is going to be a sale.

* Shop in the men's department for basics. They're usually much cheaper
and offer a larger variety.

* Buy it if you absolutely love it. Next time it may not be there.

* Keep receipts in case you want to return something that goes on sale. And
don't be shy about doing so!

* Take advantage of the convenience of catalogs. But be careful! It's easy to
overspend if it doesn't feel like you're shopping. Before you pick up the phone:
Set a limit.
Make a list.
And for every piece you plan to order, take something out of your closet and
lay it in front of you. If you see things piled up, you'll be less likely to
lose your head.

* Ask about free tailoring and personal-shopping services.

* Take a friend along with you. Not only can she can tell you how things look
from the back, she can save you from yourself--"A hundred dollars? For that???"

Don't Be Afraid to...


* Check the sales racks in better department stores.

* Say no to a salesperson.

* Spend a little extra for a classic item that you know will last.

* Ask if the store will discount an item for a missing button or a loose hem

Just Say No...

* Impossibly trendy jewelry like nose and navel rings

* See-through clothes

* Extremely high heels

* Fake Chanel anything

* Baby-doll dresses

* Slouchy socks

* Huge shoulder pads

* Fishnet stockings

* Baggy sweatsuits

* Aprons, unless they're in the kitchen

* Thigh-high skirts

* Socks and sneakers with a suit

* Ultra-cropped tops. If your belly button shows, skip it

* High heels with jeans

* Sunglasses at night or indoors

Accessories--->TriCks

Accessories

Belts.......

* Do wear a belt with a gold buckle if you are wearing gold jewelry.

* Do cover elastic waists with belts or scarves.

* Don't assume that you must, in every circumstance, match your belt and
shoes. But don't stray too far afield either.

* Do wear a belt whenever you wear clothing with belt loops.

* Do wear belts made of leather. If they aren't, they should at least
look like they are.

* Do replace belts when they start to look shabby. Or take them to a
shoe-repair store for reconditioning.

Scarves

* Do iron them on low!!!

* Do think twice before you wear a print scarf with a print outfit. To
make it work, you need a dotted jacket and dotted scarf, for example.

* Don't wear a long one dangling from your shoulder. Even if you can
manage not to lose the thing, it screams fashion victim.

* Do keep scarves folded in clear plastic containers or in plastic

Wear black with navy. Trust us! Both of them also go with... * cream * white * beige * brown ...and the combinations are timelessly elegant.

Don't wear too many colors at once.

If you find an inexpensive, basic item that fits well, buy it in several colors.

Elements of Style

Do...

* Try something that's "not you" once in a while.

* Adapt trends so that they work for you--and adapt is the key word
here. A plaid mini kilt isn't for everyone, for example. But if you love
the look, try a longer plaid skirt.

* Hold on to a few of your favorite outdated pieces. You never know!

* Add a couple of stylish, inexpensive things to your wardrobe each season.

Don't...

* Force yourself to wear something for somebody else.


* Mix two seasons in one outfit.


* Wear really casual shorts or beach sandals on dress-down Fridays.

Ethical standards

One of the most definitive sets of ethical standards is the Association for Computing Machinery Code of Ethics. The code is a four-point standard governing ethical behavior among computing professionals. It covers the core set of computer ethics from professional responsibility to the consequences of technology in society.
Another computer ethics body is the British Computer Society, which has published a code of conduct and code of practice for computer professionals in the UK.
The Uniform Computer Information Transactions Act (UCITA) defines ethical behavior from the standpoint of legality, specifically during the contracting process of computing. It defines how valid computing contracts are formed, and how issues such as breach of contract are defined and settled. However, legality does not completely encompass computer ethics. It is just one facet of the constantly expanding field of computer ethics.

Some questions in computer ethics

There are a number of questions that are frequently discussed under the rubric of computer ethics. One set of issues deal with some of the new ethical dilemmas that have emerged, or taken on new form, with the rise of the internet. For example, there is a wide range of behaviors that fall under the heading of “hacking” many of which have been variously defended and opposed by ethicists.
There are now many ways to gain information about others that were not available, or easily available, before the rise of computers. Thus ethical issues about information storage and retrieval are now in the forefront. How should we protect private data in large databases?
Questions about software piracy are also widely discussed, especially in light of file sharing programs such as Napster. Is it immoral or wrong to copy software, music, or movies? If so, why?
A second set of questions pertaining to the Internet that are becoming more widely discussed are questions relating to the values that some may wish to promote via the Internet. Some have claimed that the internet is a "democratic technology", or an e-democracy. But is it really? Does the Internet foster democracy? Should it? Does the digital divide raise ethical issues that society is morally obligated to ameliorate?

Identifying issues

Identifying ethical issues as they arise, as well as defining how to deal with them, has traditionally been problematic in computer ethics. Some have argued against the idea of computer ethics as a whole. However, Collins and Miller proposed a method of identifying issues in computer ethics in their Paramedic Ethics model. The model is a data-centered view of judging ethical issues, involving the gathering, analysis, negotiation, and judging of data about the issue.
In solving problems relating to ethical issues, Davis proposed a unique problem-solving method. In Davis's model, the ethical problem is stated, facts are checked, and a list of options are generated by considering relevant factors relating to the problem. The actual action taken is influenced by specific ethical standards.

Computer ethics

Computer ethics is a branch of practical philosophy which deals with how computing professionals should make decisions regarding professional and social conduct. The term "computer ethics" was first coined by Walter Maner in the mid-1970s, but only since the 1990s has it started being integrated into professional development programs in academic settings. The conceptual foundations of computer ethics are investigated by information ethics, a branch of philosophical ethics established by Luciano Floridi. Computer ethics is a very important topic in computer applications.
The importance of computer ethics increased through the 1990s. With the growth of the Internet, privacy issues as well as concerns regarding computing technologies such as spyware and web browser cookies have called into question ethical behavior in technology.
