Bankers were given powers they shouldn't have and they abused them. They were given money they shouldn't have access to and they squandered it and rewarded themselves. Central banks were established with monopolistic power over the monetary system, and they're destroying the money supply and enabling massive debts with impossibly low interest rates.
When are we going to blame the bastards who gave them these powers in the first place?
Corporations = capitalism/evil
Government = the tool liberals need to accomplish socialism
It doesn't take Sherlock Holmes to find the real culprit, but liberals will go as far as blaming corporations and not look an inch further, because that would mean blaming government... no, that's not allowed.


that's a weird new username you got there, qm.

Been watching the modern BBC "Sherlock Holmes" recently and made me think of someone here on VS. Hope you are doing well, my friend.

The American version will star Jonny Lee Miller as Holmes in New York (I think he's playing an American Holmes as well, not "these are Holmes's adventures while in America"). The show will be on CBS and is called Elementary. I don't think it will be a full Americanization of the show, like Office or Being Human, but just doing the same thing, a modern day Sherlock Holmes, just based in America... of course CBS could still opt out if they don't like the pilot...

Thanks for not being too arrogant to provide a short description. There is surprisingly little info about the show, but I was able to find all six episodes available for download. Thus far I've seen the first and enjoyed it rather thoroughly. It's exactly my type of show. And I love Jim Canterbury as Dr. Watson. I wonder if Sherlock was originally conceived as a homosexual.
Are you saying they're working on creating a US version of this BBC series?

Really? Sherlock is a great show... you should be sure to check it out. If you have Netflix instant, the first season is on there... and on PBS Masterpice page for free if you don't have Netflix.... Only 3 episodes to a season (2 seasons so far), each about an hour and a half long.
I don't think I'll be able to do the American remake of Sherlock though...

Lock Stock and Snatch are two of my favourite movies. And to hell with the naysayers, Sherlock Holmes was fantastic

Sherlock Holmes?

Feh, these days we use gaydar.

I've been looking forward to this for about a year! So glad the trailer is finally out!

Anything with my favorite actor Tom Hardy (watch him in Wuthering Heights and Olver Twist and you'll know why) and Benedict Cumberbatch (amazing as Sherlock Holmes) will grab my attention.

How is this anything like Sherlock Holmes?! What fucking detective work and observational analysis is being done amongst these explosions, gunshots, and cross dressing!??!

A classic example would be the Hittite Empire. Critics of the bibles historicity used to claim that it was made up and didn't exist..until its capital was unearthed in 1906.

Please provide some evidence of this supposed denial, which while cute in a urban legend sort of way, smells of classic christian revisionism rather than fact.

>> ^shinyblurry:

It's not a question of whether the bible is historically accurate, because that has already been proven conclusively.

I question it, so it is obviously questioned. But as to it being proven, by whom and when? You continue to assert this without the slightest bit of evidence.

>> ^shinyblurry:

The question is, what will it take for you to believe the very obvious fact that the bible refers to real people and places?

Sometimes it does, and so do Doyle's novels about sherlock holmes, that does not make either of them historically accurate.

>> ^shinyblurry:

the general history it recounts has been proven time and time again. Never once has it been seriously disputed, and skeptics have been forced to backtrack from their claims for centuries.

There is no reason to believe that anything said to happen in the bible before the Babylonian Exile ( you know, the actual historical event with Cyrus and all) is the slightest bit historical, if you have any EVIDENCE to counter that I would be interested to get actual verifiable links to it.

An young rock star doing...drugs?! My god.

This is salvia for sure. Weed doesn't do that to people right out of the gate, although it doesn't take a Sherlock Holmes to deduce that both were consumed this night.

I've not really seen episodes of Dr. Who. But from the clips I have seen, it seems silly. I don't get the rabid fascination people have with it.


I've only watched since the relaunch in 2005, so I can't speak to the older episodes, but you're not entirely wrong. It's very lighthearted most of the time and the 'science' part of scifi is downplayed most of the time. You won't find detailed explanations of the technology or, in many cases, any explanations.

I think the biggest draw is the focus on cleverness. The Doctor operates like Sherlock Holmes and the way a show's mysteries get tied together at the end is often very interesting.

Every time the Doctor regenerates (ie: the role is taken over by a new actor) I think I'm going to hate the new one and so far I've been wrong every time. It's refreshing that the show has a built-in way to go in a new direction without shattering the fiction. David Tennant and especially Matt Smith were/are both great at being somewhat silly characters who periodically become remarkably bad-ass with a few well delivered lines.

I recommend Vincent and The Doctor as, probably, my favorite episode from the most recent season. "Blink" from a few seasons back was much loved for its very creative new villain, but I can't find a working copy online.

It's obviously setup. When the "Cockroach Attacks" he backs away but not enough to fully knock over the picture-board so he swings his right hand backwards to make sure it goes down.

OR

It is real and his right arm swinging back is an attempt to catch the picture-board.

Ugh! Who Knows... I'm not fucking Sherlock Holmes for Christ's sake!
