Give
a girl an education, and introduce her properly into the world, and
ten to one but she has the means of settling well, without farther
expense to anybodyA niece of ours, Sir Thomas, I may say, or at
least ofyours, would not grow up in this neighbourhood without
many advantagesI don?t say she would be so handsome as her cousins
I dare say she would not |

The very last thing Pauline should have mentioned was respect due to
her familyThe aunts cowered before Scarlett's outburst, and their
frightened faces gave her an intoxicating joyful feeling of power
She'd always been contemptuous of weakness, and in the months
she'd
spent in Charleston she had had no power, she'd been the weak one,
and
she'd begun to feel contempt for herselfNow she unleashed on her
aunts all the disgust she had felt at her own craven desire to
please
"There's no need to sit there staring at me as if I had horns on my
head and a pitchfork in my hand, either!
You know I'm right, but you're just too lily-livered to say it for
yourselfGrandfather treats everybody like dirtI'll bet you |

| Chinese Web Users Doubt Director's Info on 'Avatar' |
[Feb. 5th, 2010|03:59 pm] |
"As the release of ""Avatar"" in China draws near, a Chinese Internet user put up a posting on Rednet.cn Tuesday. He doubted director James Cameron's words during an earlier press conference in Beijing where he promoted his film.
According to the Global Times, Cameron revealed that China was the inspiration for some of the alien planet scenes in the film, especially ""Hallelujah Mountains"", which he said was modeled after Huangshan Mountain in China's Anhui Province. He recalled sending his crew to the site to select scenery and take pictures. ""All we had to do was simply recreate Huangshan Mountain in outer space.""
However, Internet user Deng provided some evidence to prove that the model of Hallelujah Mountains in ""Avatar"" is not Huangshan, but an area called the South Pillar of Heaven in Zhangjiajie, Hunan Province. Deng put a picture of the South Pillar of Heaven next to a still scene from ""Avatar"", showing how the two mountains look very similar. Deng claimed he worked in Zhangjiajie and was very familiar with the South Pillar of Heaven, often taking pictures of it from different perspectives.
A number of online users replied this post, accusing Cameron of giving misleading information.
""Avatar"" is the story of an ex-Marine who finds himself thrust into hostilities on an alien planet filled with exotic life forms. It is scheduled to debut in China on January 4, 2010.
