The purpose of the EMERGE (Executive, Management, amp; Employee Responsible Gaming Education) program is to teach responsible gambling ...

He's so rude, is he even a qualified psycholigist? His "guests" are in unfortunate circumstances and he just look down his nose on them while making money out of them. The audience are worse, like trained seals. Oh yeah and he tuts at people with gambling addiction while his show is sponsored by an online bingo site!!! He wouldn't bear bait the poor unfortunates who don't know any better if the bouncers weren't around. There are better ways to help than making a laugh of people.

He is ghastly - I love the "Dead Ringers" send up of his show - it is very accurate, he just shouts at everyone like they are "scum" and at least once in every episode says someone has "no backbone" or is "spineless", etc.
I can't help but wonder if he has his own unresolved issues with his parents perhaps, the show is certainly not following normal family mediation morals and ethics.

(I do know that I take life too seriously, so yes, on the other hand, he is the perfect host within the given context of Daytime TV!)

Description of the unknown movie.
Time Period – Around the time when Chinese carriages were still around, there are cars and boats (not modernish)

This guy is a hero of a town(?) he gets beaten up by a Boss of some kind and return to the village. He has a gambling addiction. He falls in love with this girl.
He ends up creating a Gang(?) of his own, the most memorable person in that gang of his is this guy that is always drinking and always shooting (with a magnum???), this Guy never seems to die as in the movie he is shot several times(I think). As the movie progresses he and 2 other Bosses join together as a co-op thing. Almost to the end of the movie he and his 2 partners become hated and the townspeople(?) come after him (he is in somekind of British place with gates), the guards shoot the people that approach the gates. In the end of the movie he gets shot in a drive by but survives.

Scenes I can remember –
His girl leaves him at the train station because he is gambling again.

A man gets tossed out of one of those round circle ship windows , the man is tied to a toilet. The man couldn’t fit through those small circle windows so they had to break his arms/shoulders so he could fit through.

They have a man tied up to this round circle thing, he is strapped like an X shaped form.
They place bottles on him and the Guy (that is always drinking and shooting) starts shooting them.

The most remembered scene for me – In a army base thing (or something like that) they are setting up one of those strap things for torture (not really torture, more like tying up, read further …), meanwhile a lady comes out of the car and walks in with 2 guards following her(?) as she goes to that “torture chamber”(not really) soldiers come out of their rooms/dorms whistling and howling (they know whats gonna happen to her …)
Turns out she is gonna get banged while being tied to that thing.

This movie is really hard to find, all I know is that it is Chinese/Taiwanese (not sure which). Has something about Gangs/Triads/Tongs/Etc. (…)
Also this movie does NOT star Chow Yun Fat, Jackie, Jet Li, Chow …..the rest idk

Good Luck finding it , I couldn’t find it …
Only Need The Name

Okay I have made previous posts and I am ready to turn myself in but I have been training. I am 6'1 225 lbs I can do 100 pushups 85 situps and I run a 11:31 2 mile. I have made many mistakes in my life and the army has been a huge one. I am wondering if there is anyway that I could remain in the army. I left due to a serious gambling addiction that would take to long to explain everything. I am ready for whatever when i turn myself in but I am just wondering if it is possible that they will ask me to finish my contract???

During the 22 years I spent in the navy I met 1 guy in your situation who was allowed to finish his enlistment. When you get your chance to tell your side of the story accept responsibility and make it clear that you want to finish your enlistment no matter what it takes. After that it's out of your hands.

I am sorry to bother you but I have gone to far with this over my head. I left the army right out of Basic Training. I never made it to my unit Fort Cambell. I had a terrible Gambling addiction and wanted to become a professional poker player. That never happenned and I still gamble and it's going nowhere. I want to take this step and turn myself in. I have been gone for 3 years. When I left they overpaid me and put a lien on my tax return I paid them when I filed my taxes one year. Since I left I have been pulled over by police for traffic tickets 3 times. I have even went to jail and had to go to court for a disorderly conduct charge. Other than that I have been a good citizen holding a job for 3 years. I just feel like a complete loser and that I will never get on with life being what I am. I called the AWOL apprehension line in October of 2007 and wanted to turn myself in. When I told the man on the phone all my information he put me in som global network and it came back I was seperated from the army in 2004. I didnt understand because I was never seperated or discharged. I think I am still a deserter I don't know what to do? Please help if you can.

Instead of letting the feeling of despair and guilt, ruin you further, admit your problem. Face it, learn it and get help. See the websites below. If the first one describes you to a 'T', print it out, read it carefully, then call Gambler's Anonymous. I've also included their website. You need to regain control of your life first and foremost and STOP the slide and gambling. AVOID casinos or any gambling halls AT ALL COSTS. Once you're "clean", if you feel the need to turn yourself in (and you should), do it and explain your problems. If you're involved with GA, your sponsor can even help you with that too. Start NOW & TODAY! Do not delay.
