Baader Meinhof Complex, The (2008)

IMDB rating: 7.40

Plot: Germany in the 1970s: Murderous bomb attacks, the threat of terrorism and the fear of the enemy inside are rocking the very foundations of the yet fragile German democracy. The radicalised children of the Nazi generation lead by Andreas Baader, Ulrike Meinhof and Gudrun Ensslin are fighting a violent war against what they perceive as the new face of fascism: American imperialism supported by the German establishment, many of whom have a Nazi past. Their aim is to create a more human society but by employing inhuman means they not only spread terror and bloodshed, they also lose their own humanity. The man who understands them is also their hunter: the head of the German police force Horst Herold. And while he succeeds in his relentless pursuit of the young terrorists, he knows he’s only dealing with the tip of the iceberg.

Do You Think This Is A Good Way To Make Up With My Friend?
My best friend of 12 years and I had a spat last year before school got out for the summer. We haven’t spoken since. I’m really starting to miss her. And since we are HUUUUGE Potter-dorks, I decided to hand-copy the Hogwarts Acceptance Letter and send it to her, along with a little note telling her to call me. Okay, I drew out the Hogwarts Seal and I stained the paper to make it look like parchment, I spent a little over 4 hours altogether on this project. Do you think that this is a good idea? I haven’t sent it off yet, but I plan to send it today. Please tell me your opinions, I’m having a chicken-out moment.


That sounds so sweet!!! You are such a great friend! please do it and don’t chicken out! I really hope it all works out! :) )

Thanks x


MEMENTO for sure

Is it normal for a 14 year old to be this attached to his father?
I know this very nice african family that just moved into our neighborhood about 3 months ago from West Africa. It is just the father and the son, the boy is his only child and the mother died about 10 months ago. I have became friends with his father and made them feel welcome comfortable here and I even volunteered to drop his son off at the school every morning since since I have to head that way ever morning for me to go to work his father has to leave for work the opposite way and he doesn’t have time to do so. This morning when I went to knock on his door to pick him up so we could take off he had his backpack on and everything getting ready to walk out the door and then his dad just walked up and kissed him smack on the lips for about 4 seconds then headed out for his car. And his son just took it like it was no big.
I noticed that him and his son are very close because they are always kissing like this before they leave and start their day. And last week I just finished babysitting his son for nearly two weeks straight because his father had to fly across the country to New York regarding something that was required in his job. That day when he came over to my house to pick his son up he told me about it and said that he wanted to bring his son with him but he didn’t want him missing any school. So I said that I wouldn’t mind taking his son in and watch him for that week that he was going to be gone for, because I’ve got two other empty bedrooms, no kids and my husband and I aren’t together anymore so there’s plenty of room for his son to stay. I could tell his son really wanted to go with him too because when we were talking about it he didn’t say much. He had to leave on a Friday morning so he dropped his son off at my house at 5 in the morning because he had to be at the airport by 8. I’ve never seen a father and son so close in my life. When he dropped his son over to my house that morning we talked for about 15 minutes or so, and he told me that he didn’t want his son out of sight, he didn’t want him walking about in any stores alone, or going outside to play during the night. He is very protective of his son.
Before he left he pulled his son close to his chest, they hugged each other tight and kissed on the lips a few times. He told his son that he loved him and for him to do all of his school work. I had to help him get his son to stop hugging him because he had wrapped his arms around his fathers neck and wouldn’t let go. I literally had to hold his son down just so his father could walk out the door. He told me he will be back in a week and they he would give me money for watching him, but I refused and said I was just happy to be doing it for free as we are friends now. Then he drove on down to the airport.
Well late that afternoon when I picked his son up from school he got into my car looking upset and I could tell by his eyes all red and watery, that he had been crying at school. I asked him what was wrong, and he said that he didn’t want his father to go and that he had never had been away from his father as long as a week. I told him it he’d be fine and that we would have alot of fun, and that 7 days would go by so fast before his eyes. Well I guess I was wrong.
When I got home I cooked him something to eat, but he just kept staring into the distance as if he didn’t have an appetite. I fixed up one of the spare rooms for him and I had already had some board games out that I had planned to play with him with, but right when I finished fixing him a room up he just went straight to bed.
The next morning it was Saturday and he had asked to call his dad. He didn’t have a cellphone so I let him use the house phone. I listenend to his conversation the whole time while I was in the kitchen cooking breakfeast and all I’ve heard him do was complain and whine about how he missed him and wanted him to come back. And his father wasn’t even gone for 2 days yet!
So that day I tried to make him feel more comfortable with his father being gone, so I told him I’d take him out and around town (money wise). I can tell that his father is working hard struggling with his job and trying to make money to pay his bills because he tells me he isin’t being treated the best at work, and he is being paid very low for the type of work that he does, so him flying out of California to Newyork had to be something big for him to get a better position in his work. His father can’t afford to go out and buy him all these name brand clothes, and the boy only has 2 or 3 outfits and the rest was just his traditional African clothing and he only had a pair of sandals.
So that day I took his son out all around town and to the mall to get him some clothes and shoes to wear. He didn’t even have a coat and it was pouring down raining, his father left him his coat for him to wear but it was way too big on him. So I took him out and tried to find him one of those too. I was having fun taking him around town and picking ou
I was having fun taking him around town and picking out things for him to try on, but he just looked as if he was miserable. There was so much of nice clothes in his size too, he is very slim and he’s really tiny only about 5′1, so it wasn’t hard to find clothes in his size. But he wasn’t even interested in the clothes! I was the one going through clothing racks in the boy’s section and picking stuff out for him and he just stood there looking sad as if he didn’t want to be there. I literally bought him a new wardrobe that day.
Then when we got home that night his father called and told me that he had to stay for an extended time for about 6 more days which means he wouldn’t get back until 12 more days. He asked to speak to his son about it, and right when his son got on the phone and he told him he had to stay for 6 more days, His son started to burst into tears and he was crying so bad to the point that the snought just came pouring out of his nose. I didn’t know what else he was cr
I didn’t know what else he was crying about because he stopped talking in english and started to speak in some other african language. I took the phone back from him and his father said to tell his son that he will call him back Monday afternoon because he would be very busy all Sunday. So I told his son.
Then when Sunday came I couldn’t get the boy out of bed to eat break feast. He just layed under the blankets with his face in the pillow and said he felt ill. I have a Wii and an X box 360 but he wounldn’t even come out to play on that. He just layed there the whole day tying knots in a scarf or whatever he was doing.
When it was Monday afternoon he waited for his dad to call him back as promised, he waited all the way until it was night, and he still didn’t get a phone call. I walked in the room that night and he was under the blankets crying his heart out again. I told him that his father didn’t forget about him and that he must just be really busy again. He said that he was afrai
He said that he was afraid that something might have happened to his father and that he may be hurt. He said that his father always tucks him into bed at night, or sometimes he sleeps in the bed with his father and he cuddles him to sleep. So I tucked him in that night but I could tell that he still wished his father was there to tuck him in.
I know his father told me that he and his mother used to do alot of things togehter. She taught him how to cook, and I’ve tried his cooking before and it tastes wonderful. He cooks for his father all the time when he gets home from work.
Well the rest of the 9 days that his son was with me he was still sad and waiting imapatiently for his father to get home. The only time his son was happy was when the night that his father was supposed to arrive. He was sitting and waiting by the door the whole night, and once he heard that first knock he jumped up and opened it and he nearly jumped into his father’s arms. His father was holding the side of his
His father was holding the side of his head against his chest just hugging him and kissing him on his forehead, a few times on his lips and just rocking side to side with him still hugging him. His son started to cry again into his fathers chest as If he was releasing all the tension of being away from him.
I don’t understand because the boy was only with me for about 13 days and and I’ve been nothing but caring to him! All those clothes I bought him and video games that I tried to get him to play that he wouldn’t touch. His father had actually come home 4 days earlier just so he could be with his son and so his son could be happy again. His father thanked me he tried to pay me, but I said ”No it’s okay.” just to be nice then he just walked home with his arm around his son. I wasn’t shocked to hear when I asked his son how he felt when his father was back and he told me he felt better because he had slept in his fathers bed with him that night, and fell asleep in his arms. He says t
He says that makes him feel safe.
Do you think maybe I should talk to his father about and ask him why he’s so depressed when he is away from his? I think he needs to see some kind of psyciatrist or counsiler because I don’t think it is normal for a 14 yearold to be this attached to his father with all the crying, hugging and kissing. That usually stops at age 6 it doesn’t go on when you’re 14.
Do you think I should mention something to his father?


OK. Listen here, this boy’s mother died 10 months ago in AFRICA. Are you smart enough to put two things together???

I bet something REALLY bad happened down there and it may have traumatized him. If not, he lost his MOM less then a year ago. He probably feels very alone without his father and is scared that something will happen to him and that he’ll be all alone in the world.

Good gawd, who are you? Some kind of CIA spook? Why are you cataloguing this much about their situation? I didn’t even read it all but I’m more creeped out by *you* than by the boy or his father. They are from a different culture. It’s not abusive and beyond that it’s not your business. Let it go.

Molli | Feb 06, 2010


I agree with being more creeped out by you. Our customs and culture is not the same as the rest of the world, including Africa. Maybe the kid’s still in pain from his mother’s death and feels scared to leave his father for so long. Sheesh
Victoria | Feb 06, 2010


I wouldn’t say it’s normal but who knows what the kid’s been through. By the way, you are a very good person to care so much for your neighbors.
Mister Sensitive | Feb 06, 2010


Ive seen this question twice before so Im questioning as to this is even real.

But you have two immigrants in a foreign land who have just experienced a loss that I can’t imagine going through as a teen. I should just throw you in Africa and document every one of your moves and see how well you do.

You’re pathetic.
LS | Feb 06, 2010


Okay, his mom died 10 months ago in Africa…….. he must be really close to his dad now because he only has him left. Something must have happened to make them move. Something really bad. He only has his dad left, and while his dad was away, what do you think was going through his mind? That he’d never see him again.. especially the night he didn’t call. I bet his mom died on a trip or something.

Some modern period movies to watch?
I love movies that are set in historical times (anything before the 1950’s, really), but I prefer it if the movies aren’t too grainy and old-fashioned. By that I mean I prefer movies made in the 2000’s.

I’ve already seen
The Duchess
Marie Antoinette
Atonement
The Painted Veil
The Young Victoria
Becoming Jane
Miss Potter
The Jane Austen movies, like Pride and Prejudice, etc.
The White Countess

It would be awesome if you could recommend me period romances. Please do! Thanks in advance :)

His two anthropologist friends, Alexander and Fraser, and himself are certain they have discovered the missing link, which will make them famous. They start examining the pygmy couple from every angle and Jamie gradually discovers that Toko and Likola are just as sensitive and intelligent as any other homo sapiens.

How much money would a May 4, 2002 newspaper be worth today?
Its front cover is when Spider Man 1 debuted at a local theatre


Likely less than the paper it is printed on.
Nick | Feb 07, 2010


For now,not much,cut out the Spider Man 1 article,frame it up,pass it to your children,it will probably be worth something in May 4th 2052 when they make a 50th Anniversary Spidey event out of it.
HeroHua | Feb 07, 2010


Probably not much, I mean it was only eight years ago. I think you will have to wait another several decades before it even becomes a little valuble. Sorry if you were planning on selling it in the near future :)

help! how do i make a really good resume?
there is a job as an office assistant that I’d really like to apply for but to do so, I must turn in a resume first then they will call me for and an interview appointment. I meet all of the requirements, the problem is, I’ve only had one real job before and that was over two years ago while I was in high school in a fast food restaurant. I’m currently a college freshman and I really want to shine on this resume (I’ve never written one before) because this job fits my hours so perfectly. Help? Thank you for reading.


You will need to outline your skills, whether they come from work experience or life experience. For instance, you could say that you have good teamwork and cooperation skills that you learned while playing sports in high school.
Diane | Feb 07, 2010


Put the needs of the position right next to your computer. Now, take each requirement (need) listed, one at a time, and write a short sentence or two describing your ability/experience. Whenever possible, use "measurables", perhaps something like "cut time to complete weekly payables by 50%", or, "revamped form processing to eliminate three out of five forms". Etc.

Make it all about THAT job. Keep the resume short, clean and without misspellings.

Good luck!

Can Identity Theft Charges Be Dropped?
I am recently being charged with identity theft on my friends bank account and its his money and everthing. He doesnt want to press charges and i should also include he is 19 years old but his dad turned me into the police pressing charges against me when he had nothing to do with any of this. So if my friend doesn’t want the charges filed against me can he drop then since he never wanted to press charges to begin with???
