Twilight I'm having a problem understanding how Edward's powers work?
Edward can read thoughts at a pretty good distance. He can't read Bella's thoughts.
In New Moon, Edward is in Rio De Jeneiro Brazil. He makes his smokey form wherever Bella is.
My first thought was he was projecting some kind of illusion into Bella's mind. Just because he can't read her mind wouldn't necessarilly mean he couldn't do other things. However, in the latest film. The two sisters make an illusion for her and Edward to "see" in their minds. Edward is impressed but Bella states, "I don't see anything."
So, maybe the smokey image is outside of Bella. Then why don't other characters see it too?
How can he know where she is?
When he is trying to kill himself in Italy, Alice tells Bella. You go you're the only one he won't see coming.
So...how can this be explained? How can Edward pull offt he smokey image trick?

12 AnswersOther - Politics & Government1 decade agoDoes anyone remember the Malkies? Maukies? Mockeys?
They were a family of platinum blond wrestlers in the WCW. I remember them around the late 80's. There were several no name wrestlers and the Mockies were some of them.
The reason I remember them is because one time from out of no where the crowd began cheering for them and chanting "Mockies, Mockies, Mockies!" Of course they still lost but the managers must have decided to give them a chance.
They even had one interview where they were saying "We're going to come out and we are going to kick your butt...etc."
The next match it was back to usual and even though the announcers got into it saying "It's Mockie-mania running wild" when they would start to come back; the Mockies still ended up losing to the weekly bad guy.
Never to rise again...
anyone.
2 AnswersWrestling1 decade agoMy 1999 Dodge Dakota R/T with problems.?
I am the only owner of this truck and I've had the rear main seal go out twice. Also the transmission doesn't want to engage quickly enough. I have a check engine light on all the time. lastly, I think it may be burning oil. I keep good oil pressure most of the time but occasionally, especially when stopping quickly, it just drops off to nothing. Any help out there?

4 AnswersCleaning & Laundry1 decade agoWhat's wrong with Marvel and DC comics these days...?
What's wrong with Marvel and DC:
Here is what I don't like, that I can think of right now anyway...
I guess there will always be the problem of trying to explain why after 50 years Batman is still in his early 30's. I hear they are making Batman a New God to take care of the problem.
I don't like the new Blue Beetle either. Poor Ted Kord. Wonder Woman is now a murderer too.
I don't like seeing the characters change as much as they have. Some things I don't mind but it seems like when they are going to veer off the path, Man do they!
Parallax.
Death and rebirth of Jolt of the Thunderbolts
Superman with long hair and an attitude
All the different lanterns of various colors (this one I feel a little indifferent about, but when you look back at the history, OA was supposedly the center of everything.)
Oh, speaking of OA I don't care for the female Guardians of the Universe who were never there before.
Multiple Monitors.
Identity Crisis (you knew at the end Atom's wife would be back as a villain) and the loss of Sue was huge. Plus the mind wiping stuff. Heck Marvel did it to the entire Univers and no one minded.
Spidey taking off his mask, then when Marvel realizes they screwed up royally, makes a deal with the Devil (Mephisopholese) to make everyone forget but he and Mary Jane are no more.
Infinite Crisis (How do you change reality...oh that's right hit a wall over and over.)
Superboy goes insane.
Bringing Back Barry Allen, (who died a hero to save the mult-verse) and Hal Jordan
The Initiative.
Iron Man hunts down and puts in jail any other hero who doesn't go along with the Keene act, I mean the Mutant registration act,...I mean the Superhuman Registration Act. Because after all it's the law. After the Skrull invasion, Iron Man is blamed because his Stark industries technology failed as the invasion began. Iron Man became an outlaw and was told to give up since, you know, it is the law. Iron Man goes on the run and tries to clear his name.
Death of Captain America after a drawn out process by the writers to prove he is no longer of any value and that he is outdated. You know because he was brought out of the ice and still has the mindset of someone from the 40's who distrusts Nazi's. (hmmm Red Skull, Baron Von Struker, Baron Zemo....) no reason to distrust Nazi's these days...right.
The whole Idea of the Illuminati (Dr. Strange (Sorcerer Supreme), Namor (King of Atlantis), Professor Xavior (Leader of X-men), Iron Man (An Avenger, Rich, and Leader of Shield), Black Bolt (Leader of the inhumans, living on the moon), Mr. Fantastic (Leader of the first Super Hero team in marvel and the first Marvel family the Fantastic four, Also one of the top scientific minds in Marvel.) These 6 are secretly running everything? Is this a very heroic thing? Years ago, they decided it was a good idea to attack the Skrull homeworld to teach them a lesson and warn them not to come to Earth again. This really backfired when they were captured and their DNA was copied. Here comes the latest Skrull invasion...
The Illuminati also tricked Hulk into going into space and launched him off to live on a peaceful planet forever...for his own good of course. Here comes World War Hulk, yeah, not a good idea to make Ol' Green skin angry is it...
Hulk after coming back deciding to make the villains/heroes (Iron man, Dr. Strange, Mr. Fantastic, and Black Bolt) go through what he went through on the Planet Sakarr as if to teach them a lesson. At least he gave the thumbs down when asked if they should live or die. Should have been the world breaker.
Jason Todd brought back to life...
Death of the Martian Manhunter for no reason at all...by a no-name villain.
Marvel saying No more smoking in comics, Wolverine now chews on a toothpick.
Beast has evolved one step too far for my liking. He looks like an animal now, which is probably what they wanted....you know he is a Beast.
Gosh I can go on and on....
here is what I've seen recently that I DO like:
Storm has married Black Panther
Sentry has potential
I love the Thunderbolts when they first started, storyline really dwindles around issue 50 or so.
Robin, Tim-Drake, is still cool.
The Young Avengers, If only they had left out the two openly gay characters.. .
I like the revamping of old obscure characters, or taking old "lame" characters and making them worthwhile again. Captain Cold recently.
What I'd like to see:
I wish they would do a really good Aquaman story.
I would like to see a good Angel (the X-men) storyline.
More movies based on the Great Stories each have had. (I'd love to see Secret Wars done).
Really looking forward to the Watchmen movie.
1 AnswerComics & Animation1 decade agoHow does a Bailout help? and if it were you in trouble...?
Where is your bailout? Back to Fannie and Freddie...let's see, the idea is to save them from Bankruptcy. If they had gone bankrupt what would have happened. Oh, people would not have to pay their mortgages and we'd all have free houses.
Isn't that what happens when we Declare bankruptcy? But no, instead the people we put in charge to "take care of us" decides to take the money we gave them (in taxes) and give it to the people we are paying every month anyway to live in our homes.
This sounds really stupid to me. What am I missing?
