All right then.

No more Monica Bellucci's pictures
It's not pornographic.

I was physically ill, traumatised and frightened when I saw Monica's tits. I smashed my iPad to pieces to escape such sights. I daresay this experience will probably result in my premature death.

Maybe it is just because Canada ratings tend to be lower than US ratings but PG movies can have breasts so keep going lower

Not involving sexually explicit acts they don't. Also, in my medical field, there are breast.

Well I didn't see the screenshot in question but the point stands that keeping it PG can still mean nudity and pretty sure his point was no nudity at all.

Well, it was a man and woman having a sexual encounter with her bare breast in his hand and the above picture showed his mouth at her breast.

I dont know the actual definition of pronographic, but reguardless, this was not JUST a breast, it was during a sexual encounter, making it not artistic (like Titanic) but sexual in nature.

Like another said, it isn't OFFICE SAFE and CERTAINLY isn't HOME SAFE.

There are PLENTY of OTHER sites one can go to see that sort of thing.

I am curious why the "sex scene" was singled out, but no one has brought up the various bloddy, violent or gory scenes posted ? (T2, the Mist)

Question? Why in the hell would anybody be on this site at work in the 1st place?! I think it is safe too say if you are browsing this site you aren't getting any work done and should probably find a more productive way too use your time.

If I were the Activities Director, I would be browsing for a blu-ray to watch on movie day.

Isn't it because (mainly) American's consider the sight of a naked body to be an affront to civilised humanity but can't get enough of shotguns, explosions, violence, etc....

This is completely over the top. As if none of us ever innocently saw a pair of tits or watched our dad's Pornos/nudey magazines when we were pre-adolescents!

Now then, I must get back to grabbing screen caps of 18 Year Old Lesbian Babysitting Sluts vol.23

I hope you'll all be pleased with them.

Did you mean like this "american" screenshot with violence? I assume you mean like this page because it is mentioned here. There is no firing of this gun in the direction of any persons during this film.



My grandfather, Captain Red Slavit was from Denmark, and the last name (Czech Republic in origin) is a peaceful one, meaning celebrate.
[Show spoiler]
Quote:
Scandinavia (outside Finland) is a part of Europe where the preponderance of names of Christian origin is rivalled by names deriving from Old Norse. Many of these latter names go back to the characters in Norse legends and sagas (Balder, Sigurd, Gunnar, Thor, Torsten, Gudrun, Frøya or Freya). Generally these Old Norse names are dithematic - that is, comprised of two parts, using such elements are 'arn' (eagle), 'björn' (bear), 'úlfr' (wolf), 'sigr' (victory), 'gunr' (strife) and 'rún' (secret lore).

There are many common names in Swedish, Norwegian and Danish, but not all Scandinavian names have cognate forms in all three languages: Birger and Göran are typical names in Sweden; Gro and Terje are found only in Norway; and Abelone and Jytte are particular to Denmark. Common names in Sweden include Bo ('the domiciled') for boys and Åsa ('goddess') for girls. Common names in Norway include Lars ('crown') for boys and Ingrid ('hero's daughter') for girls. In both Sweden and Norway, the authorities have lists of approve names, parents must ontain permission to use a name not on the list, and there are laws prohibiting names that are offensive or might cause the child embarrassment.

When it comes to surnames, Sweden abounds in names ending in '-son' because of an old Nordic practice of using the father's first name and the suffix '-son'. Ineed, of the 100 most common family names, 42 end in '-son'.

Names in Finland differ from those in other Scandinavian countries because the language is so different. Although one does have many names borrowed from Scandinavian, German and even English sources, such as Hannes, Janne, Johan, Juhana, Juhani, Juha, Juho, Jussi (all forms of John), Ole, Claes and Eugen (all Swedish names), other names are uniquely Finnish in nature, such as Paavo (a form of Paul), Pekka, Esko and Risto (a short form of Christopher). To British eyes, Finnish names seem to make a lot of use if the letters 'k' and 'i' - for instance, Erkki, Heikki, Kerkko, Markku, Mikko, Niilo, Pekka, Pirkka (boys' names) and Aliisa, Annikki, Liisa, Pirkko, Riitta, Siiri, Sirkka, Sirkku, Viivi (girls' names) - but this is because in Finnish vowels and consonants are made long by being repeated.

In 2005, the most popular boys names were (respectively): Juhani, Johannes, Matias, Mikael, Oskari, Olavi, Aleksi, Valtteri, Kristian, Elias. The most popular girls names were (respectively): Maria, Emilia, Sofia, Olivia, Aino, Katariina, Julia, Johanna, Aurora, Helmi. Most Finnish childen are given two given names and three is not uncommon. As in Sweden and Norway, Finland has a law prohibiting names judged to be offensive.

When it comes to surnames, it is very common in Finland for them to be double-barrelled as a result of marriage. Unlike in Britain, this is not a trend more associated with the upper classes but a classless characteristic and, again unlike Britain, double-barrleled names very rarely transfer to children who usually take the father's name.

In Iceland, there is a most distinctive system for last names. Very few Icelanders have surnames as understood in the remainder of Europe. Instead here most people follow the ancient tradition of deriving their last name from the first name of their father (the patronymic system). If a man is called Leifur Eiriksson, his proper or given name is Leifur, and his patronymic is Eiriksson (the son of a man named Eirikur). A woman called Margret Jonsdóttir has the proper name Margret and her patronymic is Jonsdóttir, that is, the daughter of Jon. Women do not change their name after marriage. In a family of four, a couple with a boy and a girl, all four will therefore usually have different last names. Icelanders address each other by their first name. The last name (patronymic) is never used alone. Indeed Icelanders are listed by their first name in the telephone book (so it is good thing that the population is only around 300,000).

Although all European nations have strong Christian naming traditions, as we have seen many languages have some non-Christian and even pre-Christian names which are specific to that country. Whereas Ancient Roman names have not survived (because they were surpressed by the Catholic church), some Ancient Greek names have remained in use in modern day Greece - names like Aristotle, Socrates, Sophocles and Thucydides. In Greece, there is a tradition that the first-born son is named after the father's father.

CZECH NAMES

I have a special interest in names in the Czech Republic because my wife is half Czech and it is the country that I have visited the most often. Here the majority of first names are either saints' names (such as Antonín or Ondřej) or dithematic Slavonic names, that is made up of two vocabulary words (such as Bohumíl or Dobroslav). Two names of special importance to Czechs are Ludmila, the name of a 10th century Bohemian saint, and Václav, the name borne by five rulers of Bohemia including the man known to the English as 'Good King Wencelas' (who was in fact not a king but a prince).

A whole category of Czech names of Slavic origin honour celebration, love and peace. The Czech verb 'slavit' means 'to celebrate' and this gives rise to male names like Jaroslav (the celebration of spring), Vladislav (the celebration of power) and Vítězslav (the celebration of power) and the female name Květoslava (the celebration of flowers). The suffix '-mil' refers to 'love' and this gives rise to male names like Bohumil (love of God) , Jaromil (love of spring) and Vlastimil (love of country). The suffix '-mir' refers to 'peace' and gives rise to male names like Bohumir (peace with God), Jaromir (peace with spring) and Vladimir (peace with country)

Yup. I'm on here a lot while at work, during lunch breaks, downtime, etc. And it would not look good if someone walked by and I had a picture of Monica Belluci topless up on my monitor. Likewise for the incredibly violent or gory screens.

I'm not against them, but if you're going to post images of the sort, maybe you can put those specific screens in a spoiler and label them NSFW?
