Alien Skin has created another must have sequel with their release of Xenofex 2, an effects plugin for software such as Photoshop, Fireworks, Paint Shop Pro, and Photoshop Elements. It has a revamped interface, four new filters, and ten totally rewritten classic filters. The program is available for PCs and Macs. Price: $129; Upgrades $69. Or you can purchase a bundle that includes Xenofex 2, Splat!, and Eye Candy 4000 for $299. Further information about these products can been seen at the Alien Skin Web site. Beginning, Intermediate, and Advanced PC users. Like the first version of Xenofex, it's easy enough to use for individuals who are just starting to learn about special effects and have a grasp of the basics in Paint Shop Pro or Photoshop. And there are over 100 one-click preset effects that make it especially easy to use for beginners. But it's designed to serve graphic designers of all skill levels. If you are a Digital photographer you might want to use it to add realistic natural phenomena such as lightning and clouds to any digital photo. If you are a Graphic designer, you might want to invent logos and text effects. Alien Skin Xenofex 1.1 Free. They are available as Photoshop plugins as well as standalones. Alien Skin makes photo editing programs and plug-ins. Photoshop CC 2018 was recently released. Plug-ins may not automatically transfer when you install this new version. If this happens, you just need to download and. And if you are a Web Developer, you could use it to create eye-catching buttons, rollover graphics, and animations. See image to the left for view of using the presets for Burnt Edges and Crumple. Xenofex 2 adopts and updates the simple and uncluttered interface of Eye Candy 4000 and is designed to emulate the functionality of Photoshop-style host programs. One of the main advantages of this interface is that each filter has its own range of controls to adjust how the effect appears. Another plus is that you can switch between filters right within Xenofex without going back to your host program. Some of the features and improvements are: • Show Original Button: Toggle back and forth between the filtered and unfiltered versions of your selection. • Online Help System: Pressing the F1 key in an active filter window launches filter-specific help. • Larger Preview with Visible Layers: This resizable preview allows you to examine an effect with all layers in the image visible. • Unlimited Undo/Redo: You can undo as many mess-ups as you want. • Photoshop-style Keyboard Shortcuts: Keyboard shortcuts accelerate and streamline filter use. • Command Menus: Use settings and presets. Switch between filters. Zoom in and out of your preview image. Access online help. • Mouseover Help Text: Help text provides instant guidance for each filter control. Crumple simulates winkled paper and works great on entire images or discrete objects such as text. Crumple includes a seamless tile option that is handy for creating skins, textures, and web backgrounds. Controls include options for the size and strength of the effect, background color, light direction and inclination, highlight brightness, highlight size, color and light boost. Even though this filter is great for the usual crumpled paper effect or to use on old photos and to produce a quite realistic effect, it can also be used in just the opposite. See image to the left for a view of using Crumple with the image of a lion to give a special look. Lightning imitates nature's fury creating photo-realistic lightning bolts. You can now specify beginning and end points as well as control the branching, taper and glow of arcs. By deselecting Taper Main Arc, you can create and position realistic arcs of electricity jumping from one conductive point to another. Controls allow you to adjust jaggedness, branch spread, branching, arc thickness and several glow parameters, including the size of the flash point. It also provides target markers for setting the start and finish points of the lightning you produce. See image to the left for a view of using Lightning and the target markers. Little Fluffy Clouds. Little Fluffy Clouds adds lifelike color and clouds to a boring, gray sky. You can replace the sky in a photo, make transparent fog, or create a sunset from nothing at all. To create backgrounds for Web pages or skins for 3_D models, Little Fluffy Clouds now includes a seamless tiling option. There are controls for perspective, elevation, field of view, cloud height, haze and sky gradient and also adjustment of the basic shape of the clouds, the cover, color, and the sharpness of the edges. See image to the left for a view of using Little Fluffy Clouds. Shatter explodes images into three-dimensional shards that fly off the page. It is great for GIF animations. You can set the size, lighting, thickness and shadows of the pieces of the shattered image, the degree of tumble, and the point in time of the process of the shatter--early for the stage when the cracks are just starting to appear and late for when the pieces have already scattered and few remain within the visible portion of the canvas. See image to the left for a view of using Shatter on just the background layer of the graphic to create an interesting effect.

My PC: Microsoft Windows XP Professional Version 5.1.2600 Service Pack 2 Build 2600 System Manufacturer D845PT System Model PT84510A P4 1.8GHz Total Physical Memory 1GB Name NVIDIA GeForce 6600 Adapter RAM 256.00 MB Installed Drivers nv4_disp.dll Driver Version 6. ----------------------- Problem mentioned above about sound from the introductory video looping: I got this on my XP installation. The fix is not to skip any of the videos by pressing a key (which then loops the current sound), instead let them run all the way through. Then when the video finishes there is no looping sound. At first I couldn't get it to run properly - there were problems with the game pausing and going slo-mo when it played sounds (didn't happen on my Win98 partition, but that had its own graphical problems). Aliens Versus Predator Classic 2000 features the Colonial Marine, Alien and Predator Campaigns and the frenetic single-player Skirmish mode from the original title: Alien Versus Predator Gold Edition, which was released to massive acclaim in 2000. Take your pick: be a Colonial Marine, a Predator or an Alien. I tried altering DXDiag sound acceleration, and graphics card acceleration settings, and different 'compatibility mode' options to no avail. The fix was the one mentioned by a previous poster, which I stumbled upon: 'rename the executable from avp.exe to something else like avpg.exe [.] and everything should be fine. Don't forget to edit the shortcut to point to the renamed.exe:)' Once I did that I could play the game. Though the screens where your captain (Marine campaign) shouts instructions are silent. Use F11 to bring up the text of what he says instead as a log (multiple presses cycle through previous logs). I recommend not leaving the audio CD in - it seemed to cause problems on my version. 1-16 of 40 results for 'alien vs predator gold'. Predator Aliens vs Predator mask wolf predator face halloween horror. Get FREE Shipping on eligible orders over. If you've tried to play Aliens versus Predator Gold Edition in the last ten years or more, you've probably run into a very frustrating problem. (The levels are tenser without background music anyway). It is nice that you can install the game and don't need to leave one in to play. Handy for setting up multiplayer on more than one PC on your LAN. I am sure the problem was related to the fact that I had DirectX 9 on my PC, but the game expects 6. Playing the game generates a file called 'dx_error.log' full of junk like the following: Line 215 of. 3dc avp win95 win_proj.cpp: WM_ACTIVATEAPP msg: bActive = 1 Line 220 of. 3dc avp win95 win_proj.cpp:?&@#!

I have had this game for years and love it. I haven't installed it since my old computer which had Windows 98. I installed it recently and ran in to all kinds of problems with windows SP2. I had found this download which I installed and it made the game work fine for the most part but I think it made the game think it was AVP or AVP2 instead of gold becuase the Sabot weapon dosen't work. More specifically if you play skirmish on stranded as Marine when you run to the field in the back with the center complex as you run into that area in the far back right side of this pit there is a very dark area against the wall. In that area there is a small cave type entrance. As you are running in circles killing aliens around the complex and manage to get a break in them being right on top of you run towards that dark corner and throw some flares at it and you will light up the tunnel. Run in and turn right and in the corner will be a Sabot. This weapon rocks but the only way I could get the game to run with that download it will not let you pick up the weapon. You can just look at it and get mad before you have to leave the cave because you are about to be swarmed by hordes of aliens. I am not really motivated now to try to play the campaign games becuase who knows what else is missing or won't function either as the Marine or Predator or Alien-(No weapons for the Alien anyways:^) just fun ripping people up! I anyone is familiar with what I am talking about and knows how to make the game work fully without having to download a patch or the ACT so it still runs the game as AVP Gold please POST I will check periodocially for any updates. This game ROCKs if it will run. I am hopeful that maybe someone will buy out the rights, update the graphics, maybe add a couple new things here and there and re-release it. Instant Best Seller guaranteed! Like I said I had no problems with it on Win 98 on my old comp. When you download the patch for it, if you can find it. It will change the look of you ICON to blue from the gold look. Anyways if anyone knows how to get it to work with 100% functionality PLEASE POST! More specifically if you think your copy of AVPG works 100% go to that spot on the skirmish I described and let me know in your post if you can pick up that weapon and use it. 2008-08-17 11:07:47 - Operating System/Rating: Windows XP. Bluetooth File Transfer for the PC is a file transfer utility and client which makes it extremely easy to share files between devices with a better laid out user interface than Windows' built-in file transfer program. The included file and folder manager gives you the ability to browse your computer or remote device. It comes with full support for Android and Apple devices and basically any type of device with bluetooth capabilities. From within the Bluetooth File Transfer explorer itself, you're able to upload and download files, perform file management operations such as deleting, renaming, copy paste files and more. Bluetooth File Transfer can also playback multimedia files, open text files and browse images. Although the program might be a little bit slow finding devices, that isn't really a fault of the program but more of bluetooth protocols. This software certainly makes it a less daunting task of dealing with Bluetooth devices and file management. Download Bluetooth Driver Installer 1. Bluetooth Driver Installer is a free utility program. From the driver software that came with the Bluetooth. DriverAssist performs an in-depth scan of your entire system and all devices attached to it and verifies that you have the latest and most compatible drivers installed. It determines which drivers are missing, corrupt or obsolete. After the initial scan, DriverAssist matches your device with the latest and most up to date version of your drivers by scanning its 26 million drivers database. Before DriverAssist installs the new drivers, it performs a backup of your actual drivers just in case the new drivers would turn out to be incompatible with your system or device.

Your drivers are now up to date and your device should now be working exactly as it should. What Are Drivers? Drivers are pieces of software that allow the computer itself to interact with a hardware device. Without drivers, hardware you connect to your computer - i.e. A video card or a webcam - cannot work properly. What Problems Can Corrupt Drivers Cause? Corrupted or outdated drivers often create file errors, communication problems, or hardware malfunction in Windows速. Common problems include no sound, printing malfunction, video / screen problems. How Do I Fix Bluetooth Driver Problems? The simplest and fastest way to resolve driver related issues is to download DriverAssist and follow the instructions. I'm back in business again, at least for a while. Well, an what an episode to start with. Ting Yu tells everyone that he has something new to try out and the conductor makes a snipe about how he might want to try blowing the trumpet instead. He shocks everyone, including Die Fei herself, by making her sing in front of everyone. Die Fei feels humiliated and refuses to sing, choosing to run away instead. Ting Yu stops Hai Jie from running after her, saying that it's a problem between them. Hai Jie retorts, 'There's no need for you to humiliate her like that right!' Ting Yu bites back, 'Humiliate? Pretending to be ignorant of her feelings, you're the one humiliating her!' He follows her agitatedly into the toilet where she locks herself in and he shouts about how he won't allow her to waste her talent away like that, not when people have to train for fifteen years to get themselves somewhere and she, two years.

A tiny comic relief arrives in the form of Ting Yu realising that he has been shouting at the wrong cubicle. Die Fei sheepishly appears and expresses her doubt at her ability. Ting Yu assures her that he will make her into a good singer, and she questions, 'Really.?' Yu Shu comes home to find photos of herself and the Chairman kissing appearing on the cover of a magazine. Even though Die Fei disapproves of what her sister has done, she helps to buy every single magazine from the nearby convenience stores so that their father will not chance upon the magazines. Imagine their dismay when they return home and realise that their dad has used Die Fei's copy of the magazine as a pot mat. They try different ways of distracting their father, and helps arrives in the burnt smell of the fish in the kitchen. As their father disappears into the kitchen to fuss over the fish, Die Fei holds up the pot while Yu Shu quickly exchanges it with another magazine. Hi-five, mission accomplished. Chairman praises Ting Yu for his composition and berates Die Fei when she comes in, late on another errand. Ting Yu requests for Die Fei to be his personal assistant, not just a normal assistant, but one that stays at his house twenty four seven to take care of him. Chairman allows it, and tells Die Fei that he will adjust her salary. Die Fei is very perplexed and distracted by this change of events and feels frustrated that no one listens to her. She stares out of the window at Hai Jie, and Ting Yu makes a snipe at how obvious she is. He reveals that he's only giving her lessons under the pretence of being his assistant. She tells him that there's no need to tell Hai Jie about her moving into his house, and Ting Yu replies that it will be even better to make him jealous. Chairman tries to clear up with the orchestra about the issue with Yu Shu, but everyone quickly changes the topic. The conductor assures him later on that he has tied up all loose ends, 'I promise you that the first chair (Ting Yu) will not know about this.' Okay now what, ganging up on Ting Yu?:( A++ sings during their audition, and despite Chairman's not-so-encouraging looks and comments, he tells Hai Jie to arrange for the two girls to negotiate terms with him. Hai Jie invites Die Fei for their celebratory dinner, which she attends begrudgingly. Ting Yu finds her at the dinner, and notices her sad and uncomfortable looks. When she says that she wants to leave, Hai Jie suggests that she plays with Ting Yu and he will drink up if she loses. Ting Yu helps Die Fei out by playing with Hai Jie instead, and (possibly on purpose) loses, drinks up, before the two of them leave. A++ stops Hai Jie from tagging along, claiming that the two of them are going on a date. Knowing that Die Fei doesn't feel good about this, Ting Yu tells her, 'I know you may not like what I'm going to say, but I will still say it anyway.' He points out that she doesn't even need to confess to Hai Jie, 'Did he specially notice that your dishes are gone, your cup is empty.or to even linger his gaze on you for a little longer? But he didn't.he doesn't treat you differently from those around him.I might as well say that the way he likes you is the way he likes me.you are just like a pitiful dog, constantly wagging your tail to attract his attention.' Ouch Ting Yu.but isn't that quite sweet? He's indirectly showing that HE notices that her dishes are gone, and her cup is empty of drink. Die Fei starts tearing, and he reaches out a hand to comfort her but stops in the end. Chairman goes home to break the truth and to propose divorce to his wife, who is determined on ignoring his statements and going about in her role as the perfect wife. It is only when she turns her back on him does she close her eyes with tears. Dad knows about Yu Shu being the third party and scolds her with disappointment, for breaking up a family. Yu Shu defends herself, saying that the marriage was already on the rocks before she turned up, and that just because two people live under the same roof, doesn't make them a family. Dad gives her a choice -- break up with the Chairman or get out of the house.and she chooses the latter. Die Fei doesn't understand Dad, 'If you chase her out now, she can only depend on the Chairman.isn't that worse?' She thinks that her sister only fell in love with the wrong man, but one cannot choose who to love. Dad almost hit her again, and she shouts, 'Hit me! Hit and then tell me, why am I always the one getting slapped in the end.' Dad takes his hand back, and she mutters, 'I know, without you telling me.' As she cries in her room, we see flashbacks of her sister blaming her for their mother's death/accident. The Chairman finds Yu Shu by the roadside and tells her that they will live together. Ah, way to go to play up on the play-uncle look.what's with the earring seriously. Die Fei goes to Ting Yu's house to sleep instead and in the morning, she quickly runs back into her room when she meets Ting Yu in the corridor with her kiddy pyjamas. Ting Yu stares at her closed door for a second, and drinks the rest of his wine, as if in a salute. Later, Die Fei gets concerned at how Ting Yu is treating his body, and he tells her that his body and him are always at odds. She offers to take care of his health, despite knowing that she's just there for lessons. And so they start, a process of training Die Fei and her voice, which includes running, singing to the sea, doing weights and more. One night, she enjoys a good bubble bath, After she comes out of the bathroom, Ting Yu asks shyly if a bubble bath is really that good. He demands for her to stay outside the bathroom, in case he faints inside. Die Fei mentions that she sees no photos or memories of him and his family in his house, but comforts him that as long as his heart is warm, it doesn't matter even if he has no family. When she gets concerned over Ting Yu's lack of reply, he mocks gently that she's treating him like a child, and that she's good at buying every good intention that people have towards her, not knowing how to differentiate friendship from love. She disappears into her room in a huff, and Ting Yu disappears into his bubble bath haha. In the night, Ting Yu practises on Siren, and we see Die Fei smiling and being enchanted by it. There's a mishmash of images, of her coming out of the room, of Ting Yu playing fervently on the violin, of her on the bed, and it ends with her waking up as the song ends. Shucks, this is one weird violin. Alice on the other hand, reads the magazine that she just purchased -- because Hai Jie's featured inside. She flips to the cover where Ting Yu's face is. In the morning, Ting Yu gets irritated at Die Fei's lack of ability to read scores, even simplified ones at that, and Die Fei asks, 'Why can't you give me an education with love?' Hahaha that looks quite cute. Ting Yu replies dryly, 'I don't have that much love.' He doesn't like how Die Fei is using time as an excuse of herself, and tells her that if she doesn't get it in the end, she will have to stop going to the orchestra. He leaves after getting a call, and turns out it was Alice who wanted Lisa to invite Ting Yu over for a meal. As he helps out in the kitchen, she passes him some food and their hands linger for a moment. Ting Yu is pleased when Alice knows how he feels about sunrises and insomnia, 'Usually people are happy at seeing sunrise, but the insomniacs will feel dismayed.' Can I say.the two of them do look quite compatible. He's staring so obviously at her! Ting Yu invites the both of them to his upcoming concert and Alice's calm demeanour breaks for a moment, when Ting Yu says that there's a newbie called Chen Hai Jie who will be playing. Lisa can tell that Ting Yu is interested in her daughter, and makes herself scarce by returning to her shop. Ting Yu walks her to the cab, and laughs at how obvious she is. After she leaves, a car drives towards him and brushes against him. Except you know, it's a car, not a cat, and Ting Yu falls to the ground with his elbow bleeding. He returns back to Lisa's house, where Alice treats his injury and washes his shirt. She says that she's a little jealous of how happy Lisa is when she sees him, and he teases her that Lisa's his mother, and she's the one that popped up from nowhere. As she irons his shirt, she asks when his frequent bouts of insomnia whenever he has a concert started, and he sinks momentarily into a memory of the dark period of his life --- when his mother went mad and later on, killed herself. He jerks himself out of it and replies, 'Ever since my mother died.' She helps him into the shirt --- and tells him that she has no idea what's the truth and the lies anymore, not when what her grandparents told her and what her mother told her are so different. Ting Yu smiles and caresses her face, 'Don't you have any true memories?' She stares at him, 'Then can you tell me if this is real?' They start kissing, and end up on the bed. As they roll around passionately, (and may I comment, however 'perverse' this may sound, Aaron does film good bed scenes:O) we see that Alice isn't so passionate until she starts to imagine that Ting Yu is Hai Jie. She realises with a start, that well he's not, but Ting Yu continues to kiss her sensuously.until he starts thinking that she's Die Fei, and continues with a renewed vigour. In the morning, they wake up, cuddled up against each other. Alice leaves the room to take a call from SJ, and that wakes Ting Yu up. She sees photos of Ting Yu getting knocked down, and calls SJ, telling him that he's not CJ, and that she will deal with the matter with her own way, 'There will be progress very soon.' -the end- Since this is my first recap on this series, I have loads to say. First up, acting. I'm biased, and I'm an Aaron's fan true and true.but with that disclaimer aside, can I just say that I think he has done a pretty good job! He has moulded the character of Ting Yu so well that you could almost feel like he was just being himself.until you watch behind-the-scenes, or you're like me, an Aaron fan, and realises that Aaron is not like Ting Yu at all, well at least not completely. Lara's acting really needs serious brushing up. I like Die Fei, but Lara makes it hard for me to completely love this girl who lives in her sister's shadow all the time --- a character that would have gotten my pity and love if it had been properly played out. And out of the four leads, I felt like Zhou Cai Shi did the best. Having watched so many jdramas, I'm quite impressed at her Japanese, because it sounds authentic, and she brings out the different sides of her well. As for Xiu, well.I thought it was pretty okay, but his character hasn't yet asked for any breakthroughs. I don't see the parallel to Nodame Cantabile yet, but it will probably arise in the form of Die Fei facing up to her singing ability and Ting Yu embracing his fear, just like how Chiaki and Nodame faced their problems with courage. I have no problems with the Seagull, music, mystery and all, but the romance does get called into question here. I know Ting Yu likes Die Fei (argh, keep calling him Aaron) but he's definitely interested in Alice somehow.and that makes me confused. He seems to have a crush on Die Fei, but his relationship with Alice takes on a darker tone, especially with the bed scene. They are feeding on each other's need and desire and while I say that there's an interest lurking somewhere, the basis of their relationship is almost undoubtedly one that is filled with motive. And worse, we know that they get attached in the next episode, much to Hai Jie's dismay. We know that Alice definitely has a motive here, but I will love it if it turns out that Ting Yu did not just seduce Alice simply because of his desire:/ or the wounded ego credits to Die Fei. If you think about it, Die Fei and Hai Jie are the innocents of the show, simple-minded and happy. Alice and Ting Yu are the dark characters, the characters that are so obviously flawed, and to pair the both of them up together is like.darkening the whole plot immediately, at least that's how it comes off to me. Now imma going to have watch this sucker. I Love You So Much is about to wrap up in 2 weeks in what might be a trainwreck of an ending to a trainwreck of a drama. CTS decided the drama made no sense anyway so ran a viewer voting contest to decide whether the leading lady ends up with the lead or second male lead. Second male lead played by Nick Chou ran away with the voting (80% to Blue Lan’s 20%), so apparently Ivelyn Lee‘s character is going to break tradition and end up with the guy who is way too good for her. In cheerier news, up next for CTS is Alice in Wonder City ( 給愛麗絲的奇蹟 translated directly as Give Alice a Miracle) starring Aaron Yan, Lara Veronin (her father is Russian-American and her mother Taiwanese), and Xiu Jie Kai. While I have zero hopes for Alice, I do like how pretty the drama looks from the stills and previews, plus all the Sunday dramas currently suck so badly I need a new word for that level of complete suckitude. Which is my way of saying, Alice has really small shoes to fill, and if it doesn’t drive me nuts, then maybe I’ll finally have Sunday TW-drama back on my roster. That’s Lara on the left, and second female lead Tracy Chou on the right. I love Xiu Jie Kai since his brilliant turn as Xiao Ma in Black & White, but he’s been mostly underused in all his dramas, especially his last turn in Ring Ring Bell with Janine Chang and Peter Ho. Here’s the hoping he gets a meaty role here. As if the stills didn’t give away the premise of this drama already, it’s a violin-themed music drama about two competing violinists. Aaron plays the focused and dedicated big city violin player who demands perfection from his craft, while Xiu Jie Kai is the country boy with hopes of making his violin dreams come true. That’s really all I know about the plot so far. Check out the pretty teasers below. Alice premieres May 20th on Sunday night on CTS. I won’t deny that I find Aaron so insanely pretty in this drama. It’s like he’s finally shed his pretty young boy image and took over Wu Zun‘s vacated throne as the pretty young man of TW-dramas. Sadly, they act about the same level as well. Still, pretty is good for my eyes. Teaser 1: Teaser 2: Character introductions: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cc0tCBscmLQ. They made vote the viewers to decide the ending for I love you so much? Bwahaha I knew the situation was critical but not that desperate. Yes, it’s very bad and i still watch it for Blue. Now for this one: Why violin? It always feels fake when actors pretend to play it (painful memories of Material Queen). Can’t they stick to piano? (where at least you can be hidden behind it, or doubled by a pro for the close-ups). Plus it always gives me shivers when i think of all those cheap unedible yaoi series like Takumi Kun. I’m sure it doesn’t hurt at all that he’s already musically trained. As I understand it from musician-friends, the difficulty in stringed instruments is “hearing” the timbre of the instrument, and reacting accordingly. If you can already hear the quality of a note, then you’re farther along than someone with no musical training at all. Of course, this doesn’t explain why another singer *koff*MQ*koff* couldn’t do the same, but then again, I don’t recall rumors of extensive violin classes for that series, either. A lot of dress-up for the fashion, yes, but not a lot of noise about violin-playing. Love Xiu Jie Kai since I saw him playing the “sassy gay friend” in Easy Fortune Happy Life. He’s one of those actors I will never understand how come they’re not more popular (kinda like Kingone). Aaron Yan is the opposite. Almost as overrated as Wu Zun, so I think I’ll pass this one. Since Aaron’s in it, Jie Kai probably won’t be the main lead anyway, so From the currently airing dramas, Absolute Boyfriend is surprisingly good, actually. I didn’t have high expectations because of Ku Hye Sun, (I only watched the first episode because I wanted to see half-naked Jiro), but she doesn’t annoy me nearly as much as I thought she would. And, given the circumstances, she has quite good chemistry with both Jiro and Kun Da. I’m surprised, really. And maybe I stayed the same What does it matter to me now, anyway If I ever regret it If I'm ever repentant Karma sings and we'll dance the dance, baby.

Man I have to thank you for publishing this. Although I don’t own an Alienware computer, I have always loved their visuals (and dark themes in general), and this is exactly what I needed. I am a graphical artist myself, and I have to say I am impressed with this design. It looks absolutely mind blowing and it’s precisely what I wanted my Windows to look like. If I knew how to make a custom theme, I would have made it exactly the same. It’s stunning. Absolutely spectacular, truly great job guys! And thank you so much for sharing. This is a great theme but i cant get it to fully work on my computer and i need help. I went threw all the steps and when i apply the theme it does not change my start button to the alien head it just changes my start bar, menu and windows to a grey xp looking format, also the sounds do not change if that is supposed to be different as well they change to “Tinker” i have tried a restart, changing back to default and then back to the alienware theme and uninstalling everything and doing it over again and i still have the same reasult. Its a windows 7 ultimate 64 bit OS, what can i do?

If you drink too much from a bottle marked poison it's almost certain to disagree with you sooner or later. This bottle's not marked 'Poison'. Now what am I supposed to do? Curiouser and curiouser.

The Duchess'll be absolutely savage if I keep her waiting. Please sir, can you help me?! Are you crying? Well, fortunately I speak 'crying' and 'sobbing' fluently. But I can't stay. Yesterday everything was so normal. Now look at me. I'm huge, and I'm stuck! I wonder what's making me grow smaller? It must be this fan. How did you know my name, young lady. You did look like a mouse. Come with me, I've a very important lecture to deliver and everyone will be there! My lectures, my lectures have to be seen and heard to be depreciated. Of course they divide people. Last time the whole audience hissed. All except one man. He was applauding the hissing. What am I going to talk about? What am I going to do? Whatever it is I'll talk about, you can be sure it isn't new Not new. I am an English lecturer The most famous of my time. Because I stick with the same old words And never change a line. Not a line, not, not a line. My mother couldn't carry a tune not even if it had handles. Silly old trout. A most depressing venue. The distemper's coming off at the knees. Still the audience look lively enough. That's the main thing. I mean they're not dead. What's your name, if it isn't a rude question? Oh well, that's not your fault. I'll soon make her dry enough. My lecture is the driest thing I've ever heard of. Settle down everybody whilst I clear my throat. Get on with it! Oh well, now then. 'William the Conqueror, whose cause was favored by the Pope, Ooooh. Did you speak? I don't think so. 'Edwin and Morcar, the Earls of Mercia and Northumbria, declared for him. And even Stigand, the patriotic Archbishop of Canterbury found it advisable to go with Edgar Altheling to meet William and offer him the crown. How are you getting on now, my dear? I'm as wet as ever, it doesn't seem to dry me at all. Are you sure? I don't like the sound of it. None of use do. In which case I move that the meeting adjourn. And we immediately, if not sooner, adopt more energetic remedies to facilitate a cure for wetness, per se. Speak English! What I was going to say was, ipso facto. The best thing to get her dry would be. A caucus-race! What's a caucus-race?! A caucus-race! A caucus-race! What's a caucus-race? I'll pack a few things! Now you're talking. Yes I'm talking, now what's a caucus-race?! The best way to explain a caucus-race is - to do it. On your marks, get set. It's a blistering race! An extraordinary display of skill, determination and sheer stupidity! They're all cheating! That's caucus-race! So perish all enemies of the Tsar! And there's more where that came from! So you think I'm a cheat do you?! No just deformed. No man calls me deformed unless he's certified! The finishing post! I vouchsafe that everybody won. And that we must all have prizes. Who's going to give the prizes?! Why, Alice of course! I think it's time we were all in bed with a cup of hot chocolate. Where are you all going. Oh the Duchess! Oh the Duchess! Oh, my sweet paws. Oh my fur and whiskers! She'll get me executed as sure as ferrets are ferrets. Oh what've you lost, sir? A pair of white kid gloves and a fan. I'll help you find them. Hm hm, what are you doing here?! I'm trying to get into the beautiful garden. Run home and fetch me another pair of gloves and a fan! He's treating me as if I'm his housemaid! Frederick Rabbit's house! He lives very well for a rabbit. Some of these things must be priceless. Or even more expensive. It doesn't say 'Drink Me' like the other bottle. I'm sure it'll make something interesting happen. I just hope it makes me grow large again. Err - that's enough! Oh dear - what am I going to do?! I'll try the back window. I'm here, your honour, I'm here. I was er, out the front digging for apples. Ah, for sure, it's a dewy dawn when the larks on the wing and the snail's on the horn. Oh not now, Pat. Just help me out of this. Alright, come on, up come on. Lets have you. That won't do the vegetables any good, your honour. Why're we growing cucumbers, Pat? Because they're green, your worship. I thought so. Now tell me, Pat, what's that in the window? Let's have a look. Hang on a sec. That's an arm your worship! Whoever saw an arm that size? No-one, but sure, it's still an arm. Well it's no business there. Me, your worship? Are you a coward? Oh no, not at all. I might have coward's legs but the rest of me's brave as a lion. There's nothing to be afraid of. Well then you do it! I'm too rich, I can't afford to die. Will somebody please help me? Why won't anyone help me? I can't do it by myself! Why do you keep failing like that. - Oh help me up. - Oh, right so. Here take me right hand, there we go. That's me right hand! You're needed, lad! What's the matter, sirs? The Master's got a terrible case of the 'falls'! Get a ladder! Now be careful with the ladder, lad You might. Put the ladder up against the house. Oh, yes, yes that's good. Now climb up. You've got to get on the roof, slide down the chimney and see who's in the house. Because I can't get through the door or windows. Ah now sir, that's a mighty clever idea. But you see, I've got a bad back for chimneys. I inherited it from my mother. We've always had terrible backs for chimneys! Oh you do it, Bill! Alright then. Now careful, Bill, there's a loose slate up there somewhere. Ah, good man, you've found it! Pat, tell him to climb down the chimney. Ow.climb down the chimney! He shouldn't do that?! Not down the chimney. Don't try it! There goes Bill. What happened, lad? Hold up his head. Here's brandy Ah thank you, your worship Not you! Ah sorry, purely medicinal, runs in the family. What happened, Bill? Well something comes at me, like a Jack-in-the-box, and then up I goes like a sky-rocket. Spoken like a true Irishman, Bill. I don't like the look of this. There's nothing for it! We must burn down the house! Good thinking, your worship. Would you like me to sing some melodies of Old Ireland? No, just burn down the house! Oh, no you don't! You're not burning down this house while I'm inside! A barrow full should do! You'd better not do that again! They're not real pebbles They're soft like sponge cakes. Now I must go and find that lovely garden. No one will think of looking for me there. Everything seems different from down here. I have to keep looking up. I'm sure little people must get very bad neck strain. It's enough to make a cat bark. I used to read fairy tales, I never thought I would end up in the middle of one. There ought to be a book written about me. Maybe when I grow up I'll write one. Sir, who do I have the honour of addressing? Major Caterpillar, ribbon and bar. Late of 'Her Majesty's Foot and Light'. A true son of England and it's flag what. I don't really know. If you don't, I don't! I know who I was this morning but I think I've been changed several times since then. Explain yourself or you'll find yourself on a charge. Well, I can't explain myself, sir, because I'm not myself, you see. No, I don't see. Everyone should be the right size, shouldn't they. But I've been so many different sizes in one day it's very confusing. Well, if you were to change. Into a butterfly say you'd find it quite strange, wouldn't you? Not a bit of it! Nothing's strange to me! I don't think you should talk to me like that. In short sentences. Oh, ah a ooo- All I know is that it's very disturbing, sometimes I start crying. Because I don't remember things like I used to and I can't keep the same size for ten minutes together. That's a rum do. I'd keep an eye on it if I were you. Can't remember what things exactly? Songs and poems. Gad, it's worse than having a beri-beri. Umm, recite 'You Are Old, Father William'. Stand up, girl. You can't sing or recite without standing up. Well that's just it. I don't want to! No, no elbows all wrong. Try and keep in tune! 'You are old, Father William', the Young Man said 'And your hair has become very white; And yet you incessantly stand on your head. Do you think, at your age, this is right?' I don't know if you were trying for the 'Paganini Variations' for voice and trumpet, but you missed five verses. Some of the words did get a little altered. Young lady, it was wrong from beginning to end. And you can't get wronger than that! I'm afraid that's what always happens when I have to perform! You mustn't be afraid, that's worse than not remembering. What size do you want to be?! I don't care about the size, just so long as I'm not changing all the time, you know. No, I don't know. There you go again with short sentences! There you go, losing your temper. It's against Queens Regulations! Do you like your size right now? I'd like to be little taller. This is a terrible height to be. One side will make you taller and the other side will make you shorter. One side of what? The mushroom. That's what it's there for. Everything has a purpose even here. Thank you, Major. Ha ha ha ha ha. One side makes me taller. The other side will make me shorter. I wonder which one is which. I think I'll keep these, they may come in handy later. That looks respectable, I wonder if they'll be able to give me directions. For the Duchess, an invitation from the Queen to play croquet. From the Queen, an invitation for the Duchess to play croquet. An invitation to play croquet, from the Queen, for the Duchess. I've got the gist. Are you sure? Yes, it's an invitation from the Queen for the Duchess to play croquet. Hm, I wouldn't put it quite like that, but it'll have to do I suppose. It's no good you knocking like that. Two good reasons. One, because I'm on the same side of the door as you. Two, they're making so much noise inside, no-one can hear you. But how am I going to get inside? That is the question. You might even say, the conundrum or riddle. Yes, I might. There'd be some sense in you knocking if we had a door between us. I could go and get a spare door but that would take too long. On the other hand, if you were inside the house, you could knock, and I could let you out. Knock, knock. This way out, Madame. But I don't want to go out, I want to go in! Of course, but if you did want to go out it'd be much easier. Meanwhile, I'm going to sit here until tomorrow. Or the next day perhaps, or even for a whole week, then I can come back by popular demand. But how am I supposed to get inside? I need to ask them a question. Will you ever get in, is the question you should be asking? I'm going to sit here for days thinking about it and singing 'Coming Through the Rye'. Dee da dada dar dee dar da dar dee dar dee dar dum It's no use talking to you! I'll just have to do it myself. That's the spirit! I want pepper! Please could you tell me why your cat is grinning at me like that? He's a Cheshire-Cat. Cheshire-Cat's always grin. Isn't that so, Piggy? I didn't know Cheshire-Cats always grinned. In fact I didn't know cats could grin. Uh ho, well you don't know very much then do you. Isn't that so Piggy! Are you really a Duchess? You almost hit his poor little nose! He can already play 'Three Blind Mice' on his nose-flute! What do you want little Miss?! I want to know how to get into the garden? Oh - now you're talking, but I prefer singing to talking, don't you? Let's have a song. 'Speak roughly to the little boy, And beat him when he sneezes. He only does it to annoy. Because he knows it teases.' 'I speak severely to my boy, I beat him when he sneezes. For he can thoroughly enjoy the pepper when he pleases' Here you nurse for a bit. I've got an appointment. I best get you out of here. They're sure to kill you! I thought you wanted to go in? I've been in. Now I'm coming out. Life is so complicated! You mustn't grunt like that. You sounds as if you've turned into a pig. You have turned into a pig! I'd best let you go. When he gets older he'll make a very ugly child. Or a very handsome pig. Now which way? Cheshire-Puss, can you tell me which way to go? Well that depends on where you want to get to. Why do you want to go there? It looks safe. Sometimes things that look safe turn out nasty. And things that look nasty turn out safe. That's immoral. What sort of people live around here? Well a Hatter lives over there. Follow my pointed paw. And a gentleman called Hare nicknamed March lives there. They're probably having a tea party. They're both mad. They're both mad. But I don't want to meet mad people. But I don't want to meet mad people. Oh, but you can't help it, everyone here is mad. I'm mad, you're mad. It's only by chance and careful planning if you're not. How do you know I'm mad? Because you're here! And everyone here is mad. I went to a Hunt Ball once, I didn't like it. Terrible people. They all started hunting me! Life must be hard for you? But I grin a bear it. By-the-by, what became of the baby? It turned into a pig. I knew it would, it's the same with crows and moor-hens. Did you say 'pig' or 'fig'? I said 'pig'. And I wish you wouldn't keep appearing and disappearing so suddenly. You're making me very dizzy! Is this better? Which way shall you go? Which path shall you take? If you don't take any you will make a mistake. Which way shall you go? Which path shall you take? You have to move on though you tremble and quake. Hmm the Cheshire Cat was right. They are having tea. I wonder if they'd mind if I joined them? Have you any more food down there, Dormy? Any spoilt sandwiches or strawberries? I love strawberries, don't you? Aha ha ha ha. I'm sure he's hoarding them! Oh haw haw haw. There's no room. There's plenty of room. Why didn't you report this sooner, Hatty? Why're you here? Well, I've been looking for the pretty garden all day. And now I'm tired, and hungry. Oh, that's different. We've been eating for hours. And we've not finished yet. Waiter, waiter, there's a hair in my soup! Is it blonde? We're missing a waitress. Have some wine! I don't see any wine. There isn't any and you're too young. Then it wasn't very nice of you to offer it. It wasn't very nice of you to sit down without an invitation. This is a private soiree. Well I suppose I should've just barged in. I know I wasn't invited but the table was laid out for a lot of people. My response to that is both profound a meaningful. Get your hair cut! You shouldn't make personal remarks, it's very rude. I didn't know that. Personal remarks are rude? E'gad, you learn something new everyday. Make a note of that, Marchy, it might come in useful. Now I have one for you. Why is a raven like a writing desk? Why is a raven.? I'm not talking to you. Why not, aren't I good enough? You've heard it before. But you were looking at me when you said 'Why is a raven.?' I'm asking Alice! Um, why is raven like a writing desk. You know - I'm pretty sure I can guess. You mean you think you know the answer? Then you should say what you mean. At least I mean what I say. That is the same thing. It's not the same thing at all. You might as well say 'I see what I eat' is the same thing as 'I eat what I see' You might as well say 'I like what I get' as 'I get what I like.' You or you might as well say 'I breathe when I asleep' is the same thing as 'I sleep when I breathe.' Well it is the same with you! No no, oh I need some sleep. Time marches on it's stomach! It's an army that marches on its stomach. Odd sort of army, marching on it's stomach. I don't like the idea. What day of month is it? Two days wrong! I told you not to use butter. - It was the best butter. Some crumbs must've got into it as well. I said, 'don't put butter in the works with a bread knife'. I couldn't put it in with a fork could I? Here, let me see. I don't want to give it to you - but I will. I don't understand it. It was the best butter. That's a funny watch. It tells the day of the month but not the time. Why should it. Does your watch tell you what year it is? Because it stays a year for so long. Oh well then I rest my case. I know when I'm beaten. Mr Dormouse is asleep again. It tells you a lot about your conversation. Sparkle, Miss, sparkle! Of course, of course, I was just going to say that myself. Have you guessed the riddle about the raven yet? Um hmm no, I give up. What's the answer? I haven't the slightest idea. I think you should all do something better with the time than wasting it on asking stupid riddles. If you knew Time the way I do, you wouldn't talk about wasting 'it'. Time is a 'him'. 'It' isn't polite. I don't know what you mean. Of course you don't! Because you've never spoken to Time have you? We used to be very good friends. We served the Empire, in many a distant post before they all got woodworm. But we quarreled last March. Just before he went mad. It was at the great concert given by the Queen of Hearts! Quick, stop him, he's going to sing. Thank you ladies and gentlemen. How terribly sweet of you. And now for a little encore I'd like to a song entitled 'Auntie's Wooden Leg'. Maestro, if you please. 'Oh Auntie's wooden leg, Auntie's wooden leg. We'll paint it red and call it Fred or Ned or Ted. Oh, Auntie's wooden leg. Auntie's wooden leg. Everybody said it was well and truly dead, oh Auntie's wooden leg. I say, I say, I say!' How dare you interrupt my song with 'I say, I say, I say!' I say, I say, I say. In this world it's not what you know, but who you know. I don't know either one of them. Kindly leave the stage by the red door. There's a fifty foot drop on the other side! But we're still good friends. Auntie's wooden ohh. Uh ha, oh dear dear dear dear dear. Auntie's wooden leg. Aunties wooden leg, we'II. That's enough of that. Or she'll walk out. That's what the audience did at the concert. Try another song. We're desperate men. 'Twinkle, twinkle, little bat. How I wonder what you're! Up above the world you fly. Like a tea-tray in the sky. Twinkle, twinkle, little twinkle, You don't speak but you will twinkle. Twinkle, twinkle, twinkle, twinkle, little bee, Twinkle, twinkle, I'm so glad it isn't me. Lovely isn't it? It could almost pass for singing. 'Twinkle, twinkle, twinkle, twinkle.' Anyway, I'd hadn't finished the second verse at the concert when the Queen bawls out. 'He's murdering the tunc! Off with his head!' How terrible for you. You're very understanding for a small girl. Anyway, if you'll pardon the expression, Time took offence to our performance. Uh - your performance! And ever since then he won't do a thing we ask. He stopped time. Could he stop time for me? I have to sing a song. Oh wonderful! We're all performers here. The roar of the greasepaint, the smell of the crowd. Nothing like it! But I don't want to! Don't want to perform? - It's unnatural. - No, no, no. Stage fright. I remember my first performance, I shook so much my hat fell off. If Time stopped time for you, he could stop time for me. But he only stops time at tea-time. So it's always tea-time here? Tell us a story. I don't know any. Then Dormy will. Wake up, Dormy! I wasn't asleep. I heard every word you fellows said. Tell us a story! And do it quick, otherwise you'll fall asleep before you've finished it. Once upon a time there were three sisters, Elsie, Lacie and Tillie and they lived at the bottom of a well. What did they live on? What did they live on? That would've made them ill. It made them very ill. Have some more tea! I've had nothing yet so I can't have more! You mean you can't have less. It's very easy to have more than nothing. Especially if you're poor. I'd still like to know why they lived at the bottom of the well? Ah, oh well, it was a treacle-well! A treacle well?! There's no such thing! You'll hear from my solicitor in the morning! What about a letter to the 'The Times'?! If you can't be civil you can finish the story yourself. I won't interrupt you again. I'm sure there must be, at least, one treacle-well. Now, where was I? So these three sisters were learning to draw. I want another clean cup. Everyone move! What I don't understand is, how they could draw treacle? You can draw water out of a water-well, can't you? Good one, Hatty! I don't think I like this Tea Party as much as I thought I would. Then you shouldn't talk, just hum. Because we know you socially, Alice. It doesn't mean we're going to introduce you to our friends. We haven't got any. But if we had! Ah, if we had! I'm no staying here listening to you being rude! You'll find better places for that I'm sure! Of course she will, if she's lucky! Besides it's going to rain. It never rains but it pours. If it does, we carry on. We're little heroes, aren't we, Dormy? Officer, these men are criminals! Who's got his ear trumpet?! It's the most stupid tea-party I've ever been to. I told you he wouldn't fit. He'll fit, we have to try harder. I heard that. No that's my nose. No mind my ears. That's curious. This time I'll manage things better. The perfect place to hide. Oh look out there, Mr Five, you're splashing paint! I couldn't help it, Mr Two, Mr Seven jogged my elbow. Oh that's right, shifting the responsibility again! Ha, you can talk. I heard the Queen say you deserved to be beheaded. For bringing the Cook tulip-roots instead of onions. That's a mistake anyone can make! Why are you painting the roses red? The fact is, Miss, this tree ought by rights to've been a red rose-tree, and we planted a white one by mistake. Easy thing to do. If the Queen was to find out. Well, the fact is we'd all have our heads cut off. So you see, Miss, we're doing our best to put things right. Before she comes. She's coming now! Left right, left right, left right, left, Halt! And who is this? I agree entirely. Don't be ridiculous! Would I lie to you, Your Majesty? Oh well thank you, compliments are always welcome. You're an idiot! That's right your Majesty. Only you could spot that, it takes one to know one. A complete idiot! Your name, child? Alice, if it please Your Majesty. Why have we stopped? And who are these? How should I know? I'm a stranger here. Off with her head! Off with her head! Off with her her head! Stop losing your temper. Consider, my dear, she's just a child. You think so? Yes that would account for it. Children have no respect for their betters these days. You three get up! Stop doing that! You're making me dizzy! What is this? If you please Your Majesty, we're trying. Yes, you are aren't you. Off with their heads. I won't let you be beheaded. Quick jump in here. Do you play croquet? I'm not in the habit of talking to myself if that's the only way I can get an intelligent conversation round here. Can you play Croquet? Come on then! Where's the Duchess? She's due to be executed. Get to your places! Don't look at me. Off with his head. Off with her head. Off with her head. I don't like it here. They're too fond of beheading people. Ah it's the Cheshire Cat! Hello, there. How do you like the game? They don't play very fair. But nobody does if they think they can get away with it. That's a lesson you'll have to learn. Well, I should've croqueted the Queen's hedgehog but my hedgehog wouldn't roll into a ball. Well you've got to look at it from the hedgehog's point of view. Yes, I suppose I should have. How do you like the Queen? She's so extremely.likely to win, that it's hardly worth finishing the game. There's a good, good little girl. Who're you talking to? A friend of mine. Cheshire Cat, this is the King. Urghh - I don't like this at all. But as you're in the presence you may kiss my hand. I'd rather not. That's rank insubordination and you know what that leads to. And don't look at me like that! A cat may look at a King. What does that mean? I read it in a book somewhere. I haven't, but it sounds immoral. It has undertones. That book should be banned. I like the sound of that. Ah, my dear, how do we get rid of a floating cat? Off with its head! I knew I could rely on you, my dear. I'll just go and fetch the executioner! Do you know where my hedgehog went? He rolled away over there. Now stop it, it's alright I'm not going to hurt you. All that's necessary is a swift chop to the back of the neck! It's difficult! But I must have a ruling! I appeal to you, little girl! You've still got a good head on your shoulders! No thanks to you. I can't hear what you say. One at a time please! I'm sorry about my altitude. It smacks of revolution! You're above us! My argument is simple and based on irrefutable logic. I'm Chief Executioner. But I can't cut off an head unless there's a body to cut it from. This here cat, hanging up there, large as life and twice as repulsive, has no body. Ipso facto, I cannot separate it from hit's head. My argument is, I venture to say, overwhelming. Anything that has a head can be beheaded. And don't forget I'm also a Justice of the Peace. There's too much talk and not enough action. And if something doesn't happen in a minute, I'm going to have everybody executed! You choose, little girl. To behead or not to behead, that is the question. What's the answer, girl?! You have to tread with care when dealing with cats. They have influence and are seen in all the smart places. You remember the Great Cat Massacre. Ah, yes, I was forgetting. I'd think carefully before acting rashly. Sound advice, little girl. And another thing, the cat belongs to the Duchess. She's in prison. I remember the Great Cat Massacre of '28. Nasty business. Yes it was just after the Great Flamingo Plague of '26 wasn't it? Think carefully before answering this question. Is this your cat?! Ahh, it's gone! It's your fault! It was in your custody! It wasn't official, so it's nothing to do with me, mate. I'm in the clear! Help me find it! Everybody help! Quick, quick. Oh, you can't think how glad I am to see you again, you old thing. You look worried, my dear? I don't want to go back and sing that song. The show must go on. Life would be very dull if it didn't. Off with your head. The game's going better now. And the moral of that is. 'the more there is of mine, the less there is of yours'. Or you could say 'fortune favours the brave'. I could and I will. 'fortune favours the brave'. Oh that's a good moral. You are a clever old thing you. Fine day, Your Majesty. I gave you fair warning. Either you or your head must be OFF! Now, my dear, we can finish our game, before you leave. I'm frightened of going back. They want me to do things I don't want to do. To stay, you have to know the password. I don't know it. 'Lions and Unicorns'. Almost but not quite. It's 'Honeycomb'. Can you write that word down? I thought not! Come, come, this won't do. Everybody play! Off with their heads. Off with their heads. Off with everyone's heads! This isn't such a lovely garden after all. Now where have I got to? That looks like the coat of arms we have at home. That sounds familiar. And who are you? Part eagle, part lion. The best of each I always say. Hmm, I thought you were a mythical creature? That makes me even more fascinating. Is there a way out of this maze, sir? Let's ask Mr Mock Turtle. He's my best friend. Splendid fellow. True blue through and through. Rise and shine, old chum. Oh, is there something wrong? It's his fancy. Who knows what sad thoughts tiptoe through the mossy glades of his mind. I know how to cheer him up. Ah, Mockers tell this young lady about yourself. She's come to right person for that. Sit down, both of you. Er no thanks, I've heard it before. It's the least you can do. Once, ahhh haaa. I was a real turtle I was a real. I was a real. Thank you for that very interesting story sir. I haven't started yet! Stay, you may learn something. You must've learned a lot since you've been down here? Yes I suppose I have. When Gryph and I were little, we went to school in the same sea, and the Master was an old turtle. We used to call him 'tortoise'. Why would you call him 'tortoise' if he wasn't one? We called him ' tortoise 'because he taught us. You ought to be ashamed of yourself, asking a simple question like that. He taught us reeling and writing, and the basic fundamentals of Arithmetic. Ambition, Distraction, Qualification and we also learnt Drawling The Drawling Master was an old conger-eel. He taught us Drawling. Stretching and Fainting in Coils. What was that like? I'll show you. I'll have it in a minute. I can't show it to you myself. I'm a little too stiff. Old age is not for weaklings. And Gryphon, here, never learnt it, did you, Gryph? I didn't time. I went to the Classical Master though. What an old crab he was. Tell her about the games! Woo Cho cho cho cho choo - You may never have lived in the sea so you've probably never been introduced to a lobster. I once tasted a Io. You what-what-what-what?! You've never seen a Lobster-Quadrille then?! No, what sort of dance is that? Ha da cha cha cha chaa. This will give you some idea of what it looks like. First you have to clear away all the jelly-fish. You don't want to dance on top of a lot of jelly-fish, do you? You have a line of dancers. Turtles, salmon, cod, skate. Whoever's available. And each one has a lobster Don't forget about the lobsters! Yes, then you advance twice, change lobsters and retire in the same order. Then, you throw the lobsters into the air. Then you change lobsters again. And that, little girl, is the first figure of the dance! It's a beautiful dance. Oh, it is and it costs a pretty penny. And a few ugly ones too. Now, we'll show it to you. 'Will you walk a little faster?' Said a whiting to a snail. 'There's a porpoise close behind us, and he's treading on my tail, See how eagerly the lobsters and the turtles all advance! They are waiting on the shingle. Will you come and join the dance? See how eagerly the lobsters and the turtles all advance! They are waiting on the shingle. Will you come and join the dance? Will you, won't you, will you, won't you, join the dance? Will you, won't you, will you, won't you - join the dance?' It was a very interesting dance to watch. And no wise fish would ever go anywhere without a porpoise. - Wouldn't it really? - Course not. Why, if a fish came to me and said he was going on a journey, I'd say 'with what porpoise?' So you like performing then? Oh you know you mustn't it's such fun. Oh you are standing up. Recite 'Tis voice of the sluggard'. She doesn't know that! Recite it then! 'Tis the voice of the Lobster I heard him declare. You have baked me too brown. I must sugar my hair As a duck with its eyelids, so he with his nose. Trims his belt and his buttons and turns out his toes' You've got it wrong. I keep getting things wrong today. I think you'd better sing 'Turtle Soup' instead, if you would, Old Fellow. You don't have to ask me twice. He'll sing at the drop of a hat. I haven't got a hat, but if I had and it dropped it, I'd sing before it touched the ground. You're in for a treat, Alice. An undiscovered virtuose. And he plays the spoons. Show her your reviews. Later, I'm in my singing mode right now. 'Beautiful Soup so rich and green, Waiting in a hot tureen! Who for such dainties, would not stoop? Soup of the evening, Beautiful Soup! Soup of the evening, beautiful Soup! Beau-ootiful Soo-oop! Beau-ootiful Soo-oop! Soo-oop of the e-e-evening. Beau-ootiful, soo-oo. Take it Alice! Needs a little work, but we'll get it. Beautiful Soup! Who cares for fish. Game or any other dish! Who would not give all else for two Pennyworth only of Beautiful Soup! Beau-ootiful Soo-oop! Beau-ootiful Soo-oop! Soo-oop of the e-e-evening. Beau-oooo.tiful soooo-oooop!' And now my dear - I think you're ready to find your way And they say this sort of thing is only for the rich. One more chorus, dear fellow! Beau-ootiful Soo-oop! Beau-ootiful Soo-oop! Soo-oop of the e-e-evening. Beau-oooo.tiful soo-oop. Beau-ootiful soup so. I was forgetting. Ah, perhaps this is the way out. She's my prisoner, you know! And I've come to rescue her. We'll have to fight for her. You'll observe the rules of battle, of course. Curse my weak wrists! You're worthy opponent, sir. Another day perhaps? Another day, sir! Thank you very much. That was a glorious victory, wasn't it? As an encore I do the Battle of Agincourt. - Here let me help you take your helmet off. Oh, I can breathe now. I see you're admiring my box. It's my own invention to keep sandwiches in. You see I carry it upside-down so they don't get wet when it rains. But they can drop out, the lid is open. So that's what happened to my sandwiches! Do you know why I did that? It's now a bee's nest. I should be getting some honey very soon. But you already have a bee-hive. Oh, one of the best. But the bees won't come near it. Same with this. It's better mouse-trap. Come to think of it I shouldn't be surprised if the mice don't keep the bees out. Or the bees keep the mice out. One or the other. But why would you need a mouse-trap? You won't find many mice running around on the backs of horse's. But if there were he'd be protected, wouldn't you old chap. Are you alright? I hope you've got your hair fastened on tight? Only in the usual way. Well, that's not good enough. The wind is as strong as soup around here. You must be ready for anything. Then nothing can frighten you. You don't seem to have much riding practice. What makes you say that? You keep falling off your horse. I've had plenty of practice at that. Plenty of practice. Yes, I suppose you have. The art of riding is to keep your balance. I forget but I know it was a bargain. Plenty of practice. Plenty of practice. You see, our bodies are driven by our legs and our legs are driven by our feet. How can you go on talking when you're like this? Head-downwards and body in the air. What does it matter where my body happens to be? My mind goes on working just the same. It's a hive of activity. In fact the more head-downwards I am, the more I keep inventing things. The cleverest thing I ever invented I thought of head-downwards. And what was that? A new pudding. Come to think of it, I don't believe that pudding was ever cooked. Why, what was it made of? Uh, that wouldn't have been very nice. Not very nice alone. But mixing it with other things like gunpowder and sealing wax gives it a true taste of the Cordon-Bleus. Now I must leave you. I've still dragons to slay and young ladies to rescue. You look worried. You're too young to worry. Look at me I don't worry. Well, I was thinking about the things I have to do when I go home. You're going home? I don't want to but perhaps I should. Just be brave. And always get back on your horse. Just keep your balance at all times. Can you tell me the how to get out of the forest? Plenty of practice, pl-ahhh! Before you go! Just be brave! Oh, Tiger-lily, I wish you could talk so you could tell me how to get out of this wood? I can talk when there's anybody worth talking to. Can all flowers talk? As well as you. It isn't manner for us to speak first. We were wondering if you'd speak. I thought your face had got some sense on it. Not much, but some. Hmm but the colouring's right. Oh, I don't care about her colour. If only her petals curled more she'd be all right. Aren't you frightened of growing out here, with no-one to look after you? There's plenty of trees. What else are they good for? But what good are trees when danger comes near? They have a good bark. You didn't know that did you?! Silence all of you! They're only like that because I can't get at them, they're to close to the ground. If you're not polite, I'll make you into a chain! Daisies are worst of all, next to Snap-Dragons. How is it that all of you can talk so well? I've been in lots of gardens and I've never heard flowers talk before. Feel the ground. It's very hard. Ah, in most gardens the flower-beds are too soft, so the flowers are always asleep. I never thought of that. In my opinion, I doubt if you ever think at all. Hold your tongue, all of you! Now which way out of the wood? Ere this way. Definitely that way. Don't step on us! Look, we're standing still as waxworks. And if you think we're waxworks you should pay for the privilege of looking. Wax-works aren't made to be looked at for nothing. Contrariwise, if you think we're alive, we ought to introduce ourselves. I am Mr Tweedledum and this is Mr Tweddledee. Does the name Veronica Buff mean anything to you? No, who is she? I don't know but we're obviously doing her a favour mentioning her. Do you think she'll be grateful if she becomes famous? I was just thinking of that poem of you two. 'Tweedledum and Tweedledee. Agreed to have a battle. For Tweedledum said Tweedledee Had spoiled his nice new rattle. Just then flew down a monstrous crow. As black as a tar-barrel. Which frightened both the heroes so. They quite forgot their quarrel. There's no monstrous crow! You recited that poem very nicely. But it isn't us, No-how! No it's another set of er Tweedledums and Tweedledees. Altogether completely different people, the names are the same. Contrariwise, you began all wrong. After you said 'I'm Alice', you should've said 'How do-dee' and shake hands. Da-daa, Now shake! Here we go round the mulberry bush, the mulberry bush, the mulberry bush. Here we go around the mulberry bush, On a cold and frosty morning. Twice around is enough for any dance! I hope you're not too tried? No way, no way. Thank you for asking. As we began with poetry and song, let's continue that way. I'm sorry I haven't the time. Neither have we. We never carry a watch. The poem's called 'The Walrus and the Carpenter'. You'll love it. You start brother mine. The sun was shining on the sea. Yes, yes, yes. The Sun was shining on the sea. Shining with all his might. He did his very best to make the billows smooth and bright. And this was odd, because it was the middle of the night. The Walrus and the Carpenter were walking close at hand. They wept like anything to see Such quantities of sand. If this were only cleared away. It really would be grand! If seven maids with seven mops swept it for half a year, do you suppose that they could get it clear? I doubt it very much. And he shed a bitter tear. Oh Oysters, will you walk with us? The Walrus did beseech. A pleasant walk, a pleasant talk along the briny beach. But we cannot do with more than four, to give a hand to each. The eldest Oyster looked at him, but never a word he said. Meaning to say he did not choose to leave the oyster-bed. But four young Oysters hurried up, all eager for the treat. Their coats were brushed, their faces washed, Their shoes were clean and neat, and this was odd. And why was that? Because they hadn't any feet. 'The time has come', the Walrus said, 'to talk of many things.' Of shoes and ships and sealing wax. Of cabbages and king. And why the sea is boiling hot, And whether pigs have wings. 'Wait a bit!' The Oysters cried, 'before we have our chat.' For some of us are out of breath, and all of us are fat. There really is no hurry. We thank you very much for that. A slice of bread is what we chiefly need. Pepper and vinegar besides are very good indeed. So if you're ready, Oysters dear, we can begin to feed. But not on us! See we're turning a little blue. After such kindness, that would be a dismal thing to do! Yes, it was very kind of you to come! And you're very nice Give another slice, my friend give us another slice. I wish you were not quite so deaf, I've had to ask you twice! Well, it seems a shame I must confess to play them such a trick. When we've brought them so far, and made them trot so quick! Look at this, oh look at this The butter's spread too thick! I weep for you, I really do: I deeply sympathize With sobs and tears he sorted out those of the largest size. Holding his pocket handkerchief before his streaming eyes. Oh Oysters, I have to say, you've had a pleasant run! Shall we be trotting home again! But answer came there none. And this was scarcely odd because They'd eaten every one. O woeful, weeping Walrus, your tears are all a sham. You're greedier for oysters than children are for jam. So what's the verdict? I like the Walrus best because he did feel a little sorry for the oysters. He ate more than Carpenter. In that case I like Carpenter better. If he didn't eat as many as Walrus. He ate as many as he could get. Then they're both very nasty characters. Is that a lion or a tiger? It was the Red King snoring. Yes he's the King of Heart's lazy, no-good brother. Every family has one. We've got two. Come let's have a look at him. He'll catch a cold lying there. He won't mind, he's dreaming about you. You're only a sort of thing in his dream. Yes if he woke up now, you'd go out. Besides if I'm only a sort of thing in his dream, then what are you two?! Well, all's well that ends well. What is that?! It's your rattle. You left it in the grass! It looks a bit battered. Don't get so upset about an old rattle. It isn't old! I bought yesterday. It's brand spanking new! There's only one thing for it. Get a new one. Nothing so simple. We have to fight for the honour of the Tweedles. Ned Tweedledum versus the superior strength and skill of Fred Tweedledee. Frankly it's a bitone-sided. I was an advisor to the British Army. I advised them not to take him but they wouldn't listen. This is fighting talk. She must help us dress for it. To protect our vital parts. Whatever the outcome dear brother, I shall remember you in my will. No money of course, but I shall write 'I remember you Fred'. I appreciate the thought but I'd rather have the cash, Ned. Why are you only wearing one sock? I'm trying to save money. Do I look pale? Generally of course I'm very brave but today I have a headache. And I've got a. Which makes us even! You'd better not fight today then. Oh, we must have a bit of a fight, it's expected And all because of a rattle! Yes, well I wouldn't have minded but it was brand new! It seems a bit petty. That's exactly why it's so important. It's the crow! The monstrous crow! Alice, you are hereby and forewith summoned to attend the trial of Sir Jack, the Knave of Hearts. How do I look? Too early to say. Try it again on soprano-sax. What are they doing? They can't have anything to write, the trial hasn't begun yet. They're putting down their own names in case they forget them by the time the trial is over. Stupid things. How do you spell stupid? S-T- What's after T? Is it dinner time? It's dinner time! I was sure it was dinner time, my stomach feels like my throat's been cut. Silence in Court! It's your own fault Cedric. You're too easy. Chop off more heads. It's wonderful! Chop, chop and there's blood everywhere. It makes you proud to be Queen. Nevermind, I felt it anyway. I'm not going to be called, am I? I don't want to stand up in front of all these people. Why am I here? To save Jack from a death worse than fate. Clerk of the Court, read the accusation! The Queen of Hearts, she made some tarts. All on a summer day. The Knave of Hearts, he stole those tarts. And took them right away. Oh, I confess! I didn't do it! And I'm glad, glad, glad I didn't do it! And if I had my time again, I probably still wouldn't do it. An open and shut case. That can't be right! Did you say something, Alice? I'm glad that's over. Members of the jury, twelve good pigs and true you must retire and consider your verdict. There's a great deal more to come before you can say that. That's odd - not to say strange. Gentlemen of the jury it's obvious the accused is guilty. Put aside the evidence and look at his face. It is the face of a habitual criminal. A hardened felon, a recalcitrant rogue. We're lawyers for the defence! Rest my case. Call the first witness. Call the first witness! CALL the first witness! Call the first witness! Call the first witness! Call the first witness! Call the first witness! Call the first witness! I'm sorry about bringing these things in with me but I hadn't quite finished my tea when I was sent for. He never finishes his tea. It isn't healthy, all those cucumber sandwiches. Look at his legs! That's what I mean! He's got a case of 'cucumber legs'. The worst I've ever seen and I've seen a few in my time. Well you're a fine one to talk tubby! You ought to have finished tea. What time did you start? I'll have to ask Mr Hare. Send for him. I didn't finish the sentence. - You haven't passed one yet, Your Majesty. - Oh, that's right. When did we start tea? Fourteenth, wasn't it? Write that down. Fourteen, fifteen and sixteen. Fourteen, fifteen and sixteen. Now, subtract, multiply, and convert to grams and kilos. What's the answer? They're slow. They should be able to do it in their heads. Off with them. Disrespect of this Court. And his head with it. I can't, Your Honour. Why can't you take it off, pray? It isn't mine. Members of the Jury, write that down! Stolen hat, one. This man is a self-confessed thief and he has the gall to come into this court as a character witness! The King seems very prejudiced. Oh thank you, Alice. That's what makes me so eminently qualified to be a judge. Don't I know you? I've none of my own. I'm um um a hatter. Then why didn't you say so. That's the first thing you should've said. Now give us your evidence. Don't be nervous. Or we'll execute you on the spot. I'm not nervous. I've nothing to hide. Done my duty, served my country. I do know you. Didn't we meet in Biarritz in the summer of '41? Or wasn't it Heidelberg? Your evidence! He' s just making him more nervous. Stay calm, Mr Hatter! I'm a poor man, Your Honour, and I haven't had my tea. And what with the sandwiches getting ruined after being eaten once. And the twinkling of the tea cups. You're the 'Twinkler'! I remember, you sang at my concert 'Twinkle, twinkle little.' Twinkle, Twinkle little gnat. How I wonder what you're. You are very small indeed you can vanish up my sleeve. Up my sleeve, up my sleeve. You can vanish up my sleeve. We don't do encores. But we're available for weddings and funerals. You did sing at my concert. But this was even worse! I've been practicing! It's an offence against all we hold dear. Cedric, this man ruined my concert just as he's ruining your trial! Sire, I'm a poor man, I stand before you full of remorse and malnutrition. When Mr March Hare said. Objection denied. Ask Dormouse. Ask Dormouse what? I can't remember. You must remember or I'll have you executed! Stand your ground, Mr Hatter! I'm a very poor man, Your Majesty. And a very poor actor! Suppress that cheering. If that's all you know, you may stand down. Well I can't get down any lower, I'm on the floor as it is. Would you like another chorus of 'Twinkle'? Take off his head outside! Call the next witness. What about me? What about you? I'm the accused. All you do is call witnesses! It's not fair. I should have the most important part here. I haven't said a word for pages and pages. What did you want to say? I'd just like you to know that I have no need to steal. I'm independently wealthy. I've all the money I need for the rest of my life provided I die by one am tomorrow morning. We'll try and arrange it. Well, that's all right then. Jack's an idiot. He's your nephew. Only on my Father's side. That's my cook. How dare she! Give your evidence. Your worship must cross-examine the witness. - Be a man, Cedric. Oh, very well. What are the tarts made of? Ere what about repeating the question, kind sir? I recognize your accent. Girton College? No, I went to Oxford, Misses. You poor devil, and what did you study? Ow to speak like this! The witness will answer the question. What are the tarts made of? Pepper, mostly. What did he say? That's Mr Dormouse! He's no right to be here. Off with his whiskers! Call the next witness! What's the matter Alice? I don't like being called up here like this. I should like it, if it happened to me. Yes, most people like being the centre of attention. Now, what do you know about this business with the tarts? Nothing whatsoever! That's very important. Unimportant, Your Majesty. Unimportant, of course, is what I mean to say. I've told you all I know. I'd like to go back to my seat now. We're moved by your plea, but I am reminded of Rule Forty-Two: All persons more than a mile high have to leave Wonderland. I'm not a mile high. More like two miles high! You just invented that rule. It's the oldest rule in the book. Then it should be Rule Number One! Careful Cedric, they're taking over the Court, especially that girl. Punish somebody. You've too much to say for yourself Alice. Jury consider your verdict. Sentence first, verdict after. That's stupid! Have a care, Alice! I can't let you condemn an innocent man. It happens all the time. Off with her. Don't keep shouting 'Off with her head' in case someone shouts 'Off with yours'. You've lost your last chance of staying here. It's back to the real world for you, young lady! I don't care! All the tarts are here so how could the prisoner have stolen them?! There is no crime! Don't you care what people think? Not when I'm right. Are you so confident, young lady? Yes I am confident! Then you don't need us anymore. I'm coming I'm here, I'm here. Sorry, I'm late! We were getting worried. And now, our daughter, Alice, is going to sing for us. It's 'Cherry Ripe' isn't it, dear? I've got a better one. 'Will You Walk A Little Faster Said A Whiting To A Snail'. Are you sure, dear? Yes, I'm sure. 'Will you walk a little faster?' Said a whiting to a snail, There's a porpoise close behind us, and he's treading on my tail, See how eagerly the lobster and the turtles all advance! They are waiting on the shingle. Will you come and join the dance? Will you won't you, will you, won't you, join the dance? Will you, won't you, will you, won't you, join the dance? Will you, won't you, will you, won't you, join the dance?

From the 6th century to the 10th century, Jewish scholars, today known as, compared the text of all known in an effort to create a unified, standardized text. A series of highly similar texts eventually emerged, and any of these texts are known as (MT). The Masoretes also added vowel points (called ) to the text, since the original text only contained consonant letters. This sometimes required the selection of an interpretation, since some words differ only in their vowels—their meaning can vary in accordance with the vowels chosen. In antiquity, variant Hebrew readings existed, some of which have survived in the and other ancient fragments, as well as being attested in ancient versions in other languages. New Testament [ ] The was written in. The discovery of older manuscripts, which belong to the Alexandrian text-type, including the 4th century and, led scholars to revise their view about the original Greek text. Attempts to reconstruct the original text are called critical editions. Based his critical edition of 1831 on manuscripts dating from the 4th century and earlier, to argue that the must be corrected according to these earlier texts. The autographs, the Greek written by the original authors, have not survived. Scholars surmise the original Greek text from the versions that do survive. The three main textual traditions of the Greek New Testament are sometimes called the (generally minimalist), the (generally maximalist), and the (occasionally wild [ ]). Together they comprise most of the ancient manuscripts. Most variants among the manuscripts are minor, such as alternative spelling, alternative word order, the presence or absence of an optional definite article ('the'), and so on. Occasionally, a major variant happens when a portion of a text was missing. Examples of major variants are the, the, the, and the. Early manuscripts of the letters of Paul and other New Testament writings show no punctuation whatsoever. The was added later by other editors, according to their own understanding of the text.

Second Timothy 3:16 says, 'All scripture is given by inspiration of God.' If that's true, how did we end up with so many different versions of the Bible? Why do they all say different things? God doesn't change, does He? I've compared the King. Main article: By the 3rd century BC, had become the center of, and during the 3rd to 2nd centuries BC translators compiled in Egypt a version of the Hebrew scriptures in several stages (completing the task by 132 BC). The ascribes the translation effort to ( 285–246 BC), who allegedly hired 72 Jewish scholars for the purpose, for which reason the translation is commonly known as the (from the Latin septuaginta, 'seventy'), a name which it gained in 'the time of ' (354–430 AD). The Septuagint (LXX), the very first translation of the into, later became the accepted text of the in the Christian church and the basis of its. Based his Latin translation on the Hebrew for those books of the Bible preserved in the Jewish canon (as reflected in the ), and on the Greek text for the. The translation now known as the Septuagint was widely used by Greek-speaking Jews, and later by Christians. It differs somewhat from the later standardized Hebrew (). This translation was promoted [ ] by way of a legend (primarily recorded as the ) that seventy (or in some sources, seventy-two) separate translators all produced identical texts; supposedly proving its accuracy. Versions of the Septuagint contain several passages and whole books not included in the Masoretic texts of the. In some cases these additions were originally composed in Greek, while in other cases they are translations of Hebrew books or of Hebrew variants not present in the Masoretic texts. Recent discoveries have shown that more of the Septuagint additions have a Hebrew origin than previously thought. While there are no complete surviving manuscripts of the Hebrew texts on which the Septuagint was based, many [ ] scholars believe that they represent a different textual tradition (') from the one that became the basis for the Masoretic texts. Early translations in Late Antiquity [ ] 's placed side by side six versions of the Old Testament, including the 2nd century Greek translations of and. His eclectic recension of the Septuagint had a significant influence on the Old Testament text in several important manuscripts. The canonical was formally established by Bishop in 350 (although it had been generally accepted by the church previously), confirmed by the in 363 (both lacked the book of ), and later established by in 367 (with added), and 's Latin translation dates to between AD 382 and 420. Translations predating Jerome are collectively known as texts. Christian translations also tend to be based upon the Hebrew, though some denominations prefer the (or may cite variant readings from both). Bible translations incorporating modern textual criticism usually begin with the masoretic text, but also take into account possible variants from all available ancient versions. The of the is in, and nearly all translations are based upon the Greek text. [ ] Jerome began by revising the earlier Latin translations, but ended by going back to the original Greek, bypassing all translations, and going back to the original Hebrew wherever he could instead of the Septuagint. The Bible into in the 4th century. In the 5th century, translated the Bible using the invented by him. Also dating from the same period are the,,, and translations. [ ] There are also several ancient translations, most important of which are in the dialect of Aramaic (including the and the gospel harmony), in the Ethiopian language of, and in (both the and the ). In 331, the commissioned to deliver fifty Bibles for the Church of Constantinople. 4) recorded Alexandrian scribes around 340 preparing Bibles for. Little else is known, though there is plenty of speculation. For example, it is speculated that this may have provided motivation for, and that, and are examples of these Bibles. Together with the, these are the earliest extant Christian Bibles. Middle Ages [ ]. The from the 13th century, held at the in. When ancient scribes copied earlier books, they wrote notes on the margins of the page ( marginal ) to correct their text—especially if a scribe accidentally omitted a word or line—and to comment about the text. When later scribes were copying the copy, they were sometimes uncertain if a note was intended to be included as part of the text. Over time, different regions evolved different versions, each with its own assemblage of omissions and additions. The earliest surviving complete manuscript of the entire Bible in Latin is the, a Latin Vulgate edition produced in 8th century England at the double monastery of. During the, translation, particularly of the Old Testament was discouraged. Nevertheless, there are some fragmentary, notably a lost translation of the into Old English by the Venerable, which he is said to have prepared shortly before his death around the year 735. An version of the gospel of Matthew dates to 748. 800 charged with a revision of the Latin Vulgate. The translation into was started in 863. Had a number of passages of the Bible circulated in the vernacular in around 900. These included passages from the and the, which he prefixed to a code of laws he promulgated around this time. In approximately 990, a full and freestanding version of the four Gospels in idiomatic Old English appeared, in the dialect; these are called the. Around the same time, a compilation now called the appeared with the first six (or, in one version, seven) books of the Old Testament. In 1199 banned unauthorized versions of the Bible as a reaction to the and heresies. The and Tarragona (1234) outlawed possession of such renderings. There is evidence of some vernacular translations being permitted while others were being scrutinized. The complete Bible was translated into Old French in the late 13th century. Parts of this translation were included in editions of the popular Bible historiale, and there is no evidence of this translation being suppressed by the Church. The entire Bible was translated into Czech around 1360. The most notable, (1383), based on the Vulgate, was banned by the Oxford Synod in 1408. A Hungarian Bible appeared in the mid 15th century, and in 1478, a Catalan translation in the dialect of.

Either the Tanakh or the New Testament was available in an additional 1,168 languages, in some kind of translations, like the interlinear -by-morpheme translation (e.g. Some Parallel Bible, with ). In 1999, Wycliffe Bible Translators announced Vision 2025—a project that intends to commence Bible translation in every remaining language community by 2025. As of 1 October 2015 they estimate that around 165 - 180 million people, speak those 1,800 languages where translation work still needs to begin. Wycliffe also stated that parts of the Bible are available in approximately 2,900 out of the 6,877 known languages, and that there are currently 554 languages with a complete Bible translation. The New Testament is available in 1,333 languages and many more have at least one book of the Bible available. Differences in Bible translations [ ]. Further information: and Dynamic or formal translation policy [ ] A variety of linguistic, philological and ideological approaches to translation have been used. Inside the Bible-translation community, these are commonly categorized as: • translation • translation (similar to ) •, or translation, as used by the late though modern linguists such as Bible scholar Dr. Joel Hoffman disagrees with this classification. As and, the original languages of the Bible, like all languages, have some and concepts, there is in some cases an ongoing critical tension about whether it is better to give a word for word translation or to give a translation that gives a parallel idiom in the target language. For instance, in the, which is the English language translation, as well as translations like the, the, the, the, and the are seen as more literal translations (or 'word for word'), whereas translations like the and sometimes attempt to give relevant parallel idioms. And are two paraphrases of the Bible that try to convey the original meaning in contemporary language. The further away one gets from word for word translation, the easier the text becomes to read while relying more on the theological, linguistic or cultural understanding of the translator, which one would not normally expect a lay reader to require. On the other hand, as one gets closer to a word for word translation, the text becomes more literal but still relies on similar problems of meaningful translation at the word level and makes it difficult for lay readers to interpret due to their unfamiliarity with ancient idioms and other historical and cultural contexts. Doctrinal differences and translation policy [ ]. Further information: In addition to linguistic concerns, theological issues also drive Bible translations. Some translations of the Bible, produced by single churches or groups of churches, may be seen as subject to a point of view by the translation committee. For example, the, produced by, provides different renderings where verses in other Bible translations support the deity of Christ. The NWT also translates kurios as ' rather than 'Lord' when quoting Hebrew passages that used YHWH. The authors believe that Jesus would have used God's name and not the customary kurios. On this basis, the anonymous New World Bible Translation Committee inserted Jehovah into the New World Translation of the Christian Greek Scriptures (New Testament) a total of 237 times while the New World Translation of the Hebrew Scriptures (Old Testament) uses Jehovah a total of 6,979 times to a grand total of 7,216 in the entire 2013 Revision New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures while previous revisions such as the 1984 revision were a total of 7,210 times while the 1961 revision were a total of 7,199 times. A number of have been published that are even more rigorous in transliterating the tetragrammaton, using Semitic forms to translate it in the Old Testament and also using the same Semitic forms to translate the Greek word Theos (God) in the New Testament, e.g. Usually Yahweh and/or Elohim or some other variation, e.g. Other translations are distinguished by smaller, but distinctive, doctrinal differences. For example, the, by translation and explanatory footnotes, promoting the position that Christians should not drink alcohol, that New Testament references to 'wine' are translated as 'grape juice'.
