Obsessed
Obsessed (2009)

IMDB rating: 3.80

Plot: A successful asset manager, who has just received a huge promotion, is blissfully happy in his career and in his marriage. But a temp worker starts stalking him, all the things he’s worked so hard for are placed in jeopardy.

Directors: Steve Shill

Actors: Elba Idris,McGill Bruce,Rogge Ron,Humphreys Matthew,Johnson Derek,Joyner Paul,Ketsios George,Munoz Antonio,O’Connell Jerry,Rowland Jon,Ruccolo Richard,Drama,Thriller,

Is this person mad, eccentic, or do they have a disorder; they are obsessed with animals, not in a practical?
caring way so they may help them, like a vet, but they follow them guessing what they’re saying to each other, talking about them frantically and excitedly, pointing and reporting on their movement, even walking out into a busy road to follow them, oblivious to their surroundings. When the person watches an animal rescue programme they wave and say hello to the animals on tv. Basically they are way over the top. They also have a very overactive imagination, they believe in fairies and have their 11 year old child still believing in Santa, leaving him open to teasing at school.
Could this be a form of Autism?


Hmm…Tis certainly eccentric and they are taking it a bit far. I don’t think it’s a sign of Autism though, I think that would have been picked up on a long time ago.

I don’t think there’s anything you can do about it yourself, I think in their state you can’t do anything to make it change.

It could be, but it could also be gangaism. Does the person smoke pot? Sounds like it! Maybe they are just wildly imaginative and prefer to view the world this way. It’s no less realistic than someone who is constantly morose and obsessed with death and destruction.

Different strokes for different folks, but hell, if they’re walking out into a busy road they are probably off!

Animals deserve attention a lot more than humans.
This thought came to me when i tried to classify your species and i realized your not actually mammals, every mammal on this planet instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with its surrounding environment, but you humans do not. You move to an area and you move to an area and you multiply and multiple until every natural resource is consumed, the only way you can survive is to spread to another area. There is another organism that follows the same pattern, do you know what it is?
A virus, human beings are a disease, a cancer of this planet.

People with Autism do empathize with animals, case in point Temple Brandon. However they can also express themselves in ways garnered from their childhood books or memories i.e. fairies. There are common presenting symptoms between Autism and schizophrenia. Interacting with objects or people that are not there as an adult with no learning disabilities would seem to be an hallucination and delusion and would seem to indicate schizophrenia.

How do you like this small part of my story? (based on a dream)?
I walked hesitantly in to my mother’s house, being dragged by my little sister Jade, who was holding on to the hand that wasn’t wrapped around my son. I never did like my mom, she’s been an alcoholic for as long as I can remember and kicking me out at 13 didn’t really help matters much. Jade, still only 4, is much to young to remember how mom treated her before my grandparents came to get her. Jade now lives with us. Yes, us. Me, my grandparents, and my 8 month old son Matthew.
I suppose I should be in a better mood, I hadn’t seen my mother in months and we were decorating for Christmas after all. Christmas is supposed to be a time for family, for forgiveness, right? "Jade!" My mother’s voice rang out, clear and drunk. As usual. She was bent down with a warm, fake smile plastered on her pretty face, her arms spread open for my sister to run in to. Jade let go of my hand, leaving me free to enter as slowly as I pleased and ran in to mom’s arms.
At first glance, mom looked sober. She looked like she’d been taking very good care of herself. The house was cleaned, the lights were on and the blinds were open, exposing the sparking thick blanket of shining white snow outside. Mom was actually dressed today, in jeans and a navy blue v-neck knit sweater. Her long black hair was curled, and she had a little bit of makeup on. The thing that gave her away were her eyes, slightly glazed over with big pupils. Then her voice, deeper then usual. She had slightly slurred Jade’s name.
Mom stood up with Jade in her arms much as I held Matthew, and opened her arms for me. "Emma." She slurred softly. I narrowed my eyes and kept my ground. "Hi mom." Something flashed in her eyes and she dropped her arm, cutting off any chances I had of a welcoming hug. "You didn’t call to tell me you had a son." I spoke slowly, tightening my arm around Matt. "I didn’t call to tell you I was pregnant. I’m sorry. I don’t think I could have done it. I didn’t really want my baby around all the cigarette smoke and alcohol." Granddad and Grandma came in then, carrying boxes of ornaments and lights. "Hey now." Granddad chided. "Don’t argue, let’s decorate."
I wasn’t in much of a decorating mood anymore. I wanted to yell and shout and get everything off my back. About how much I really did miss mom, about how I did want to tell her about the baby, she was a teen mom to, she could have helped but I just didn’t want to put up with her assumptions and accusations! Instead of saying anything, I sat Matthew down on the floor with a toy and began silently decorating the tree mom had put up just hours before we arrived.
"So, Emma how old are you now?" Mom asked in what seemed like just an attempt of being friendly as she took a small sip of what looked, and smelled like expensive red wine. I could hear honest curiosity burning in her voice though, proving just how much she cared enough to keep up with my life. "Just turned sixteen." I replied cooly. Mom looked stunned. "A son so young? That’s irresponsible." I turned to look at her, my mouth hanging open. "Excuse me?" I squeaked. "But if I remember correctly you were what, fourteen when you gave birth to me? Don’t you dare lecture me about being irresponsible! I never drank anything more then a few glasses of wine in my life, I don’t smoke, and I don’t totally ignore my child! I care, and no way would I kick him out when he turned thirteen because he was fed up with my drinking! I would stop! Because I care about other people, not just myself mom and you would know that if you cared to be sober for one night!" I couldn’t help but let my voice rise to a shout, and slowly, I saw Granddad and Grandma quietly usher Jade out of the room, promising her a fresh batch of brownies.
"This is why I hate Christmas." Mom said, keeping her voice level. "Everyone is always mad. It’s just not what it used to be." I frowned, she was avoiding talking about how ruined she’d let her life become. "And who’s fault is that?" I snapped back, my voice quivering from the strain of holding itself back. "Five days. Five days I stayed sober and alone Emma and you didn’t bother to call, or come by to see how I was doing or anything!" Mom finally let her voice rise, and the venom dripping from it made me flinch. "I was pregnant…I…you could have called me, you know! If I would have known you were alone AND sober, I would have come by mother! Sometimes you, have to be the one to call me!" I started out as a whisper, but it quickly turned heated and urgent. "To bad your to lazy to even pick up the cell phone I bought you, WITH MY OWN MONEY, and call me!"
Mom was shaking her head, smiling slightly. Sarcastically. "Damn Emma, I just love how sarcastic you are." I scoffed and spat, "You sure as hell act like it!" Mom was silent for a little while, searching my face. She downed the rest of her wine, then glanced at Matthew, playing
It was some dream, and no I don’t have that good a memory actually. Some dreams just REALLY stand out and say something to me. Those are the ones I remember. This one touched me in a way I can’t explain, and I just HAD to write it down. I like it, and hope you all do to.

So is anyone a fan of Highlander?
So basically the only movie I really liked was the original. But it was so finite that none of the sequels make sense. How is it that in Endgame, all of those immortals were able to be beheaded on holy ground? Isn’t that against the rules?


I havent seen that yet but there is an recent animated movie out there that was pretty good.
cant find it though :( josephine | Dec 13, 2009


The first movie was good, the rest sucked. It’s probably better to pretend the sequels don’t exist. Highlander the series was good too if you need a little Highlander fix.

Need help, math question?
Veronica attends a prestigious university and is enrolled in a four-year program. She is expected to pay $20,000 in tuition fees per year, which will be paid off in 8 years. In addition, she has to pay a 2% interest rate for the 8 years. What will be the total amount for her education?


At year 8 she will owe, where 1+i=1.02 is the interest rate per year:

20000(1+i)^8 + 20000(1+i)^7 + 20000(1+i)^6 + 20000(1+i)^5 = 91,011.76

Possible Spider Bite - Symptoms?
Hello

Today I woke up to go out with a friend of mine. I was tying my shoe and randomly scratched my leg. I jumped when I scratched a sensitive bit of skin, and when I looked I saw what appeared to be a zit or some kind of small but bite (the kind you dont have to worry about).

About 4 hours later I was eating and suddenly a headache hit me like a ton of bricks and I developed the shakes and nausea a short while after that.

I took some Tylenol and the headache subsided. Theory behind the headache, possibly on account of me eating Chinese food and that being the only thing I had eaten all day (m.s.g. in food can cause headaches, etc).

I just looked at my leg again and felt it. I don’t know if it’s anything to be alarmed of, but about an inch from side to side around the actual "bite" is a light red and the skin feels a little raised and tough. I poked it gently with my finger and it was a little numb. Not a lot, but noticeably different than normal.

My worst mistake was reading symptoms of a brown recluse bite then seeing pics, but some of the "beginning phase" pics look a little bit like mine and I got myself all worked up.

I’ve had spider bites and bug bites that just go away on their own, but what concerns me is, if it is something bad, had I not scratched my leg I wouldn’t have noticed it..

Does this sound at all like a spider bite I should go straight to the doc’s to look at, or would someone recommend I keep an eye on it for another day or so?

I mean if it gets worse, I’ll definitely go get it taken care of with a doctor’s procedure, but if it stays as is like it did today, would you recommend anything in particular?

I apologize if this didn’t make much sense, as I haven’t slept all night and it’s about 5:39am


If the bite were from a brown recluse, your symptoms would be much more severe. There would be a very large area of swelling that would be a purplish bruise color and would be extremely sensitive. It could be another type of insect bite, but it does not sound like anything very serious. Keep an eye on the area and see your doctor if your symptoms get worse; insect bites that warrant medical attention are severely painful and much more obvious.
