The Pacifieris funny movie and the action scene make this film more interest. Unfortunately, the secret project didn’t see to the spectator. If you see this film you already to laugh with Shane behaviour.
Overall The Pacifier is an excellent and funny movie, actors and actrees have good act. The way of stories easily to understand. The Pacifier can also watched by children. Although this film watch anytime, I never boring. Multitude the films which the stars is Vin Diesel always attract to watch. So, you must watch this film.

I have many favorite scene in this film,...

"Untitled"

I open my eyes
I try to see but I’m blinded by the white light
I can’t remember how
I can’t remember why
I’m lying here tonight

And I can’t stand the pain
And I can’t make it go away
No I can’t stand the pain

How could this happen to me
I made my mistakes
I’ve got no where to run
The night goes on
As I’m fading away
I’m sick of this life
I just wanna scream
How could this happen to me

Everybody’s screaming
I try to make a sound but no one hears me
I’m slipping off the edge
I’m hanging by a thread
I wanna start this over again

So I try to hold onto a time when nothing mattered
And I can’t explain what happened
And I can’t erase the things that I’ve done
No I can’t

How could this happen to me
I made my mistakes
I’ve got no where to run
The night goes on
As I’m fading away
I’m sick of this life
I just wanna scream
How could this happen to me

I made my mistakes
I’ve got no where to run
The night goes on
As I’m fading away
I’m sick of this life
I just wanna scream
How could this happen to me

Prediction: Believe it or not believe

Have you ever been predictable? And helieve you with that prediction? Hmmh, prediction is a prediction about the future or a future event, usually the forecasters predict about career, romance, finance, good day, etc. Seers are people who like to predict the future life. Forecasters use various media to predict, such as tarot cards, coffee, palm reading, etc.. Lots of famous names forecasters because almost all of his predictions never miss.
Let us begin with the events predicted by the forecasters really happened. Lots of people believe in a psychic because his predictions happened. But sometimes people misinterpret a prediction and finally trapped in a situation which was contrary to this prediction.
Positive side of the prediction is that we can predict events that will come primarily to avoid bad events to be experienced, it would be to our advantage. Moreover, if we forecast a good thing for us, certainly we will be more eager to live our days.
Instead, the negative side of the prediction is that if we are forecast to forecast bad and we are mempercayainnya then we can not live in peace and will continue to feel anxiety in our lives.
But we do not have to fully trust this prediction because prediction is often not the case. So we must be wise in responding to predictions that we receive.

El Nino

El Nino is a quasi-periodic climate pattern that occurs in the tropical Pacific with approximately 5 year cycle. It consists of marine components, called El Nino or La Niña, characterized by heating or cooling of surface waters in the eastern tropical Pacific Ocean, and an atmospheric component, Southern Oscillation, which is characterized by changes in surface pressure in the tropical western Pacific. when the oceans warm phase, known as El Niño is valid, the pressure in the western Pacific surface height, and when the prevailing cold phase (La Niña), the pressure in the western Pacific surface is low. El Nino related floods, droughts and other weather disturbances in many regions of the world.
El Nino is marked by increase in surface pressure in the Indian Ocean, Indonesia, and Australia
Decrease in air pressure in the eastern Pacific Ocean. , El Niño event begins when the trade winds, part of the Walker circulation, wavered for months. Low atmospheric pressure tends to occur over warm water and high pressure occurs in the cold water, partly because of deep convection over the warm water of action for air transport. El Niño episode is defined as a sustained warming of the central and eastern tropical Pacific Ocean.

Early stages and characteristics of El Niño
Although the cause is still not known, El Nino begins when the trade winds, part of the Walker circulation, wavered for months. A series of Kelvin waves of relatively warm water beneath the surface a few inches high and wide for hundreds of miles across the Pacific along the equator and create a pool of warm water near South America, where sea temperatures are usually due to cold upwelling. Ocean Pacific is a reservoir of heat that drives the global wind patterns, and the results of changes in temperature change on a global scale. Rainfall shifted from the western Pacific toward the United States, while Indonesia and India become more dry. warm place in the eastern Pacific can weaken the east-west difference in temperature, wind trade interfere with the push of warm water in the west. The result is increasingly warm water eastward. Several mechanisms have been proposed through the accumulated heat in the equatorial Pacific surface water, and then spread to the lower depths by El Niño.

As a result of El Nino
• In North America, El Niño creates warmer than average winter in the Midwest states and the Northeast, thereby reducing the snow from the average during the winter.
• Central and southern California, northwestern Mexico and southwestern United States are significantly more wet, while the northern part of the Gulf states of Mexico and Southeast Asia countries (including the Tidewater and northeastern Mexico) are much wetter and cooler than average during the phase of El Niño oscillation.
• In Canada, winter is warmer and dry place, although relatively little variation can be seen in the Maritime Provinces.
