I don’t seem to know what the bottom button does

i have at this point 971,900 what is left?

So, I am auditioning for Drum Major of my high school band pretty soon. Part of the audition is to conduct a piece of music. My problem is the first song I chose was crazy hard and fast, and had no downbeats, so I couldn’t do it in time.

The current drum major suggested a choose a song I know, and I know the star wars songs quite well

I do not know how to tell what the meter is without guessing, can anyone tell me a song that would be good to conduct? I really like either lyrical songs or powerful marches. I was looking at ‘across the stars’ and ‘the imperial march’

I need to conduct about two to three minutes of the song

Thank you!
Oh and tempo changes would be good, but star wars has a lot of those

17 yr. old boy + Light saber = cool?

My 17 year old son still enjoys playing with his red Star Wars light saber. He isn’t a die hard Star Wars fan so I don’t understand his obsession with the saber. He dresses up in costume including tights, tool belt, and cape. Occasionally he also wears a helmet. He jumps around the house on all of the furniture making saber noises and pretending to slice non-existent enemies. When he was a kid we thought it was great for him to have such a cute imagination… but it hasn’t worn off yet. I think 17 years old might be too old for the kid saber, but maybe I’m just not keeping up with the times. There’s always those nerdy kids who play with toys that are cool right? I just don’t want to imagine him getting beat up at school… should I intervene and take his toy away or put him in time out? Or can I not punish him because he’s an adult now? HELP PLEASE!

Here are some:

Bride of Frankenstein
Mad Max 2
The Godfather: Part II
Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back
Terminator 2: Judgment Day
Toy Story 2
The Bourne Supremacy
The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King
X2: X-Men United
Spider-Man 2
The Dark Knight

What are some less obvious ones?
Liberty: Empire Strikes Back comes after A New Hope, and continues the franchise. So it’s a sequel, as well as Lord of the Rings.

It is the last vehicle I need other than the Stealth Ship, which I know how to get!

Is this likely? For a character I'm writing.?

In a war story I’m writing, I want to have one of the characters be a three-star general in the army. However, a friend of mine told me that the beginning is unlikely because a three-star general wouldn’t be lying in bed, next to his wife, and worrying about the ensuing war on the horizon, and whether he would be sent off to it. He would be at a military headquarters already. Is that true? What about, say, a one-star general? How are the stars earned, anyway? Thank you for your answers.

If we just taxed the evil, greedy corporations that are hoard all of OUR MONEY, this whole deficit problem would just go away and we could have all of our government ‘entitlements’, right?

"Tax those evil corporations!” you say? – If you flat out confiscated 100% of the 2010 profits of ALL of the Fortune 500 corporations you would only have enough B – just enough to run the government behemoth for about 5 and a half weeks.

If you also confiscated:

- ALL of the money ever spent on those outrageously expensive Super Bowl ads – 0M

- Every penny earned by all of those multi-millionaire athletes in the NFL, NBA, PGA, NHL, NASCAR – all of it – .4B

- Forget about taxing the rich; I say, LETS EAT THE RICH! Don’t just raise their taxes but take every last penny from every last American who earned more than 0K – take every penny! – .42T

- Grab every thin dime earned by the Star Wars movies, box office take, toys, and figures, ALL of it. – B

- Still blaming "Bush’s wars" for the deficit? OK, stop the wars and grab ALL of that money too. – 4B

- Evict all the wealthy Hollywood glitterati, fancy pants movie stars from their mansions and sell them; 15,000 mansions at an average M each – B

- I got it! What if every single billionaire in the country (400 of them – including Buffet, Gates and Zuckerburg) had an "unfortunate accident" and we got 50% of their massive fortunes (which they probably stole anyways) in estate taxes? – 0B

- Aw screw it! Just kill ALL of the billionaires and take ALL of their money and the next 100 or so nearly-billionaires too! – 0B

- Cut out ALL foreign aid, especially those evil Israelis (who, as we all know wouldn’t survive without the US hurling mountains of money at them). – B

OK, so you have completely taxed away all of the profits of the Fortune 500, professional sports millionaires, the Hollywood movie stars, ALL of the wicked, evil, greedy rich ɓąstards (that Michael Moore claims are hoarding the wealth), ended all foreign aid, surrendered both wars – and we’re still short. Every American man woman and child will have to chip in just (but that’s HUGE tax increase on the 47% of earners who now pay NOTHING) – and congratulations! You’ve paid the U.S. budget FOR ONE YEAR!

But you’ve also liquidated and destroyed the nation to do it. And you have even touched the national debt of .3 trillion, you would have to repeat all of the above four more times, but of course you can’t do that because the nation is now a third world wasteland.

OK, so if we’ve proven that we can’t tax our way out of this, can we all agree that we must DRASTICALLY cut spending – or are we still stuck on stooopid?

Thanks to the brilliant Iowahawk for this eye opening research (http://iowahawk.typepad.com/).

Lego star wars 3 is about . Complete saga is about . I’m really just looking for the most entertaining one, so which should I get?

My friends and I made a movie and added music from Star Wars, Pirates of the Caribbean ext. I burned the movie we made onto a DVD and I am giving it to only close friends and family. I added the name of the soundtrack and the composer in the credits. Someone told me to check into if this would violate copyright laws. If I’m just sharing it with friends/family for free I would not think it would be a problem. Is this legal? Please explain why or why not and if you can give a link to verify your answer that would be great. Thank you very much!
Correction: Sorry, I meant to say "that only friends/family WILL see" in the subject line.

copyright issues i accept any suggestions…

I really want to finish the game but I can’t unless I defeat it. Please help!

I am a music teacher and we are studying the impact of music in our culture. I would like to find a way to show a movie without the music and with the music to show the difference. This is for 7th and 8th grade. So, the movies would need to be appropriate. Star Wars would be amazing to see the difference. But, any ideas would be greatly appreciated

I already beat the story mode but it wont let me unlock anyone

What is waiting for the Xbox 360 in 2011?

www.360kinectblog.com

This year has elapsed under the sign of Kinect. Microsoft is preparing many new games that use motion and vote. Not just for kids and families, but also for so-called. hardcore gamers.

If you look at Microsoft’s publishing plans and compare them with what Sony is plotting, you get the impression that the Redmond giant forgive the video game market. “Throughout the year, only three power exclusive’y?” (Exclusive to the game, which is published in a single platform – ed) – can holler loud players who bought the Xbox 360, believing that this is a better choice than PlayStation 3 But nothing is certain, because this year finally has the potential to be used Kinect, a device which has already pinned patch “toys”, and which has a much bigger aspirations.

Before going to the Kinect games, lets mention the three exclusives, which will be operated traditionally, using pads.

The first is the “Gears of War 3, the last in a trilogy of shooters incredibly impressive,” about the struggle of people with nasty Locustami (called the “locust” means the locusts). Again, we offer a compelling single-player campaign, as well as extensive multiplayer mode. Its premiere was to take place in March, but will be held until the autumn.

Gears of War 3

In the same period will be the second of the titles are intended solely for the Xbox – Forza Motorsport 4 “, something for fans of the four wheels and high speed. This driving simulator, which – as the creators promise – is to be the most realistic game of its kind in history. It is worth mentioning that it will exploit the Kinecta.

The third year’s exclusive to Microsoft’s console is by far the most mysterious. It’s “Kingdoms”, the game announced by the studio Crytek (Far Cry, “” Crysis “) at E3 in June last year. Until today, nobody knows what exactly is to be and when to appear. However, we believe that it is able to release this year.

If you like to play only on the crash, and fun with Kinecta scares you … This essentially would be enough. But if you want to try something new, you should look at these titles:

“Project Draco” – production by Yukio Futatsugiego, the father of the series, “Panzer Dragoon,” inspired by Taze. Will sit on the back of a dragon, and Take to the skies, where stoczymy flying combat with various enemies.

“Star Wars Kinect” – the first game in the universe of “Star Wars” in which we could wave a lightsaber and use Jedi powers, virtually without holding anything in his hands (you will be willing to probably be able to buy an imitation sword, to feel like Luke Skywalker) . Release Date: Christmas 2011

“Codename D” – a secret project, is working on Goichi Suda and his team Grasshopper (creator of “killer7″, “No More Heroes” and “Shadows of the Damned”). We know about him only that it is intended primarily for “hardcore” players.

“Rise of the Nightmares” – a game of survival horror, prepared by the company SEGA. There is for now too much information about it, but the same species makes it intriguing.

“Steel Battalion: Heavy Armor – continued in 2002 issued a robot battle simulator. This time we have an opportunity posterować it using their own movements. The game will be held in 2082 years, the United States.

Of course, the above-mentioned games are the same exclusive’y Xbox machines. Besides them, waiting for you lot this year Prime Minister multiplatformowych, among which there will be potential hits such as:

* “Dead Space 2″ (January)
* “Bulletstorm” (February)
* Crysis 2 “(March)
* “Portal 2″ (April)
* “Shift 2: Unleashed” (second quarter)
* “Deus Ex: Human Revolution” (first half year)
* “Rage” (September)
* “The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim” (November)
* “Shadows of the Damned” (Autumn)
* “Mass Effect 3 (fourth quarter)

Bulletstorm

There is therefore no reason to complain. This year should be for owners of Xbox machines as interesting as the favorite show on TVN-ie. Chart will be in abundance, and for that we will closely observe the development of Kinecta and using it to games. The coming months will give us an answer, is it really as big a revolution as preached Microsoft.

I think if you constantly buy toys child asks for, he/she’ll get spoiled. But what if they didn’t ask for it and you buy it anyways since you think it’ll be good for them. Will this make them spoiled as well?

Recently I saw a movie called "lord of war" starring Nicholas Cage where the father character buys his toys for his son and leaves it in his room while the kid is sleeping and I thought that it was a sweet scene.

I started the game and then i notice later that there is no option to go back and replay the prologue level. i dont want to finish and find out i have to replay everthing again to get the stuff i missed ther. thanks

preferably star wars mp3 music
without viruses

Mall Kiosk business idea?

I am considering getting a mall kiosk going around mid summer. My questions is this:
How would toys do at a mall kiosk?
The mall I will be in does not sell what I am going to sell, which is action figurines, and possibly legos. There are a LOT of kids in the mall. How do youthink action figures would do? ( star wars figurines etc.)

OK, so here’s the story… (I’m a straight girl) and I have been going to this coffee shop every day, three times a day for the last maybe six months. There is this girl who works there, about my age, who always gets my coffee and is always really nice to me.
One day, I finally decide to talk to her, y’know, since I see her every god damn day and I might as well say something. So we get to talking, and she is super nice, so I ask what she’s doing for lunch and if she might want to hang out. She says "Sure!"
So we go to lunch and we’ve got the same sense of humor and taste in music and everything’s going great so ask her if she’d like to see a movie with me (I LOVE movies with a passion) and she says "Of course, I’d love to" So we go to the movie (Five Easy Pieces with Jack Nicholson) and when the credits are rolling I notice she’s got her arm around me, so I figure she’s sleeping. Alright, so I look over and she is so I wake her up, but she’s SO embarrassed, like she’s practically in tears, so I tell her "It’s alright, all of my friends fall asleep when they watch movies with me."
So we leave and get in my car and she falls asleep again! So now I’m driving and have no idea where I should go because she never told me where she lives, and I don’t want to wake her up or rummage through her purse or anything, so I just drive to my house and she didn’t want to wake up when I opened up the car door, so I just carried her into the house and tucked her into my bed.
It didn’t look like she was going to wake up anytime soon, so I went down into my basement to play Mortal Kombat and a few hours later I heard her moving around upstairs so I call that I’m down here. Anyways, the whole night we talk about video games and music and all sorts of stuff and we’re having such a great time that we don’t notice it’s morning.
Sooo… I ask to make her breakfast because I make the best omelettes in the world, so she says sure and while I’m making it, she looks around my house and is asking me about all my stuff and she says I’m such a guy. (Which a lot of people say since I like Jackass and Star Wars and stuff, so I didn’t think much of it)
After breakfast, I ask her if she wants to go to Vermont (I live in Mass.) and she says that it would take way too long to get there. I tell her that I’m a pilot and that my Uncle has a lake house we could hang out at.
(Sorry this is getting kind of long) Anyways we hang out at the lake house, I ask her to go see some more movies with me, we eat dinner together a few times at fancy restaurants (I think it’s fun to do that every now and again) we fly around in my plane, play video games, she comes to see my band play. All what I thought was normal ‘friend’ stuff.
Although I should probably tell you I was home-schooled all throughout high school, so I had literally no friends (by choice), and I have never really had a best friend or really any ‘normal’ relationship. So I thought that her hugging me all the time and touching my hair and stuff was normal. I mean, it kind of bothered me because I’m sort of a mysophobe, but she’s the first good friend I’ve really had, so I didn’t want to blow it by telling her to back the hell off.
Anyways, my band mate James got to talking to her and one way or another they started talking about my boyfriend. (Who, I might as well tell you, hasn’t been around because he’s a mental patient at the local psych ward) And she was so pissed she came to my house and started yelling at me and she was saying stuff like "I thought you of all people wouldn’t do something like this" and "We had something really special and you ruined it" and stuff like "I thought you were different"
So I had no idea what the f**k was going on or even what she was talking about in the first place, so I said "Please explain to me, because I really just don’t understand, why you care if I have a boyfriend? We can still hang out if that’s what you’re worried about" (or something like that) and she just left with the most pissed off and hurt expression, I felt so bad and I didn’t even know why. So I had James talk to her and try and see what her problem was, and he told me she was so upset because she thought we had been going out.

As in dating. As in she thought I had been hitting on her this WHOLE TIME. As in WTF am I supposed to do? I’m not a lesbian so that’s not really a negotiable factor. She’s a really great friend and I love spending time with her, but what do you think is best for her?

(Oh and if in the end she winds up hating my guts, should I still buy coffee from her?) Thanks for reading this whole thing, I know that must have sucked.

Lego makes new colored bricks all the time to co-inside with their licensed sets. At one time purple, green and orange Lego’s didn’t even exist, and now not only do they exist but are plentiful. Lego has made colored faces and hands to match Patrick Star, Squidward Testicles, Sandy Cheeks and Mr. Krabs from the Spongebob sets. Tons of variations were created for the Star Wars sets, and the latest sets of Toy Story have shorter and taller variations of Lego people, as well as yet another new color. At Downtown Disney in Orlando, Fl The Lego store has a wall of Lego people from the past 20 years or so. I didn’t see any race but the "yellow" Caucasian people, so I was wondering if Lego has made other races of their people, and if not…why not?

I have some good codes, but i don’t know how to enter them. Any help?

i’am looking for the star wars theam to create on my computer dose anyone know what instrments are used and the cords as i am a dumb ass when i come to read music

help interpreting a dream?

I usually lucid dream & have complete control of my dreams. Sometimes I can only tweak the scenario and control the people and myself. Lately, I have been having many dreams I can’t control and they have stuck with me like I should be looking for a meaning. I need some help because I don’t understand the meaning of the dream as a whole.
First it starts with the man I really love and admire. He seems to finally be paying some attention to me and we are in a room full of other girls but I know he’s with me. When it’s time for us to leave.. I walk out of the room and into an elevator by myself so I have to go back and find him. When I find him he’s sitting talking to some girls and just looks up at me with a blank stare. The dream then changes to me laying down on a bed, I look to my left and I see myself. I get confused but the other me looks at me and smiles.. and there I understand that one of us is my body and the other my spiritual self. We then hug tightly (I can still feel the embrace) and then my dream changes. (One of my close friends’ husband came back from war and was so depressed he committed suicide.) In my dream we went on a field trip (we went to HS together) and a teacher took the smalll class of around 6,8 to the place where he jumped off. It looked like a an outside parking lot. (like the ones in vegas’ casinos) He apologized to my friend and said he knew how hard it was for her and she said it was fine but was crying hysterically. She was suddenly calm and the parking lot was filled with cars and some of the people i was with were vandalizing a car and so we all started running. I ran on my own to hide in a bathroom and then they came back for me. We started running and the sky turned dark. When I looked back kids in bikes were chasing us and we saw a little boy. Pale and kind of creepy outside a house. We asked for his mom or help and he responded saying his mother’s race. I can’t remember but when we walked into her house she knew we needed a place to hide. She was rude but helpful. Her face was pale and ugly with a huge nose. (kind of what witch cartoons look like) She said we could sit in a corner. Her house was old and poor and she made it clear not to mess up her house or her husband who was on his way home would be extremely upset at her. Then the boys who were chasing us started throwing rocks or cloth with fire through the windows and we all panicked. But when they hit, the fire didnt spread and my panic stopped. Then it turned into my living room and my dad came out and asked why I just starred at the fire and didn’t put it out so he did. We went through the house putting the small fires out. Then it turned into my kitchen. I was trying to cook but the fire kept spreading all over the stove top. I would blow to put it out and once I’d put it out I would go back to what I was doing to find it spread again. I started to panic because no matter what I did it I couldn’t put it out. I woke up extremely confused. Can anyone help? thank you in advance :)
lol.. i’m pretty sure that wasn’t it. thnx

Can I become a Youtube Partner?

I have over 2,000 subscribers and over 4,000,000 views on my videos. However, they ALL are lego stop motion videos. I haven’t used any title character lego toys (like batman, star wars, or indiana jones) however I have used a few holiday seasonal ones like skeletons, ghosts, dragons, and goblins.
The most subscribed youtuber who makes lego stop motion is ForestFire101 I believe, HOWEVER he isn’t a youtube partner. I was wondering why this is? Are legos copyrighted? Even if I don’t ever use the word "Lego"?
Can stop motion lego videos get revenue sharing? All the music in my videos and voices are created by me as well.

I am wondering if it features the ground battles where you construct bases, build barracks, call in reinforcements like the xbox 360 version.
