Absu - Live In Bad Worrtschofen (01-05-1995)
2007-10-15 20:13:00 Absu is a black metal/thrash metal band from Plano, Texas, USA. Their early work leaned towards a death metal sound, but more recently they have incorporated a black and thrash metal sound with some celtic and folk music (which they call "Mythological Occult Metal"). Their lyrical themes are esoteric, ranging from Celtic myths and legends, Sumerian myths and legends, magic, weaponry, and sorcery.BiographyAbsu was formed in 1991 by Equitant Ifernain (Guitars, Bass, Lyrics) and Shaftiel (Guitars, Vocals). Shortly after that, they were joined by Proscriptor McGovern (Drums, Vocals, Lyrics), David Athron Mystica (Guitars), and Black Massith (Keyboards, Synth, Sequencing). The self-proclaimed "Mythological Occult Metal" has maintained a steady following in the extreme metal underground for a number of years now. After releasing their first album 'Barathrum: V.I.T.R.I.O.L.' in 1993, Absu narrowed their line up to a three piece when David Athron Mystica and Black Massith left. For live p...

Absurd and Solemn
2007-08-26 03:33:00 This excerpt continues the serialization of Diary of a Heretic, the novel, which portrays the rise and fall of a contemporary spiritual movement that blossoms suddenly, and briefly, around Malcolm Tully, the owner of a coffee shop/donut house across the street from a terminal of Chicago'€™s El tracks. Tuesday, November 13 (continued) Inside the NANM garage, a short, plump, wispy-haired woman in brown coveralls hurried out from a cubicle, saying, “Well, hello there!†She wiped her hands on a rag. “I’m Amanda Rittner, but of course you know that already, don’t you?â€I shook her hand and a swatch of mottled red flared up her neck. Clasping that hand to her bosom, she asked if I preferred the Lexis or the Range Rover. “I’m afraid we’ve sold the others.†She turned her head and hiccuped into her collar. Eyes brimming, she whispered, “Please forgive me. It’s just that I’ve wanted to meet you for so long. . . â€â€œOh....

Obligatory "HSM2" Update: Taking Absurdity to New Levels
2007-08-23 20:53:00 My unwittingly "controversial" post, High School Musical 2: Chock Full of Gay, over on AOL's QueerSighted blog is propelling absurdity to new, delightful, and frightening extremes:1.) It has drawn more than 1,600 comments (so far) from mostly angry tweenyboppers, teenagers, and parents, making it one of the most responded to posts in the history of the blogosphere and redefining the term "the decline of Western civilization."2.) It was re-posted on a bunch of kids' MySpace pages; reported about on USA Today's entertainment blog, as well as other blogs; drew 200+ comments on LiveJournal's Ohnotheydidn't community board; and got picked up by Fark.com, where they've got their own little discussion going on.3.) It was talked about and quoted from this morning on the Kevin & Bean show on KROQ in Los Angeles (thanks for the tip, Bread and Bread).4.) It caused the traffic on my own blog, BAMBOO NATION, to increase by more than 2000 percent, and, although most of those visitors will n...

Theater of the absurd - hubris edition
2007-08-04 05:02:00 Bush, Democrats struggle for spy deal Congress and the White House struggled Friday over expanding authority to eavesdrop on suspected foreign terrorists in a high-stakes showdown over national security."We're still hopeful that something can be worked out," said Ellen Cioccio, a spokeswoman for Director of National Intelligence Mike McConnell, after a day of fitful negotiations. "They're still talking."Democratic leaders cleared the way for votes on different measures ? at least two in the Senate and one in the House.That left the outcome in doubt hours after Bush implored Congress to send him a bill before leaving this weekend on a monthlong vacation.In the House, Democrats claimed they had acceded to White House requests, but Bush's aides disputed that.So Bush insists they the House and the Senate Stay in session until they give him the bill he wants. That worked pretty well in Iraq didn't it? So what does Bush want? This is double hubris. The president threatened to veto any...

The 'Absurd'
2007-07-03 14:34:00 The absurd is not, says Sartre, "a mere idea; it is revealed to us in a doleful illumination - getting up, tram, four hours of work, meal, sleep; Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, in the same routine." This pattern is horrifyingly similar to the pattern of Sisyphus.The essay 'Le Mythe de Sisyphe' ('The Myth of Sisyphus'), 1942, illustrates Camus' concept of the absurd and accepting it with "the total absence of hope, which has nothing to do with despair, a continual refusal, which must not be confused with renouncement - and a conscious dissatisfaction".According to existentialist philosophers such as Camus and Sartre, "absurdity" is the necessary result of our attempts to live a life of meaning and purpose in an indifferent, uncaring universe. Another quality of the absurd man is that he will never be disappointed with life. He will want to live even if he visualizes a life without hope, without future. (Albert Camus won the Nobel Prize for Literature in ...

Rodnik is "Quirky but not absurd"
2007-06-16 14:15:00 For those of you who are unaware of this label, Rodnick is by two British designers Rich and Phil, they refer to Viktor and Rolf as "inspirational in the way they make fashion fun." They both also describe their work as "Quirky but not absurd". This designers did not come from a not study fashion, apparently they were reading philosophy and art history in University. Their fashion careers came about when they went on a trip to Russia and discovered some folk scarves they brought back home and sold in a box with the name "Rodnik" put on the front. According to them "Rodnik was a shop we found while researching for an essay. It was a sort of fairy tale shop that had been opened by a princess in Moscow 100 years ago."The story of this British duo is one that always sounds to me as very fascinating, a tiny bit like a fairytale I must say. They always across as very quirky and fun lads which is obvious in their work. I genuinely like this duo and their work which always includes very rom...

The absurdity of selling tutorials on selling tutorials and eBooks about In

It's a bit like Network Marketing without the leverage. You just pass the information to the next in line. And the only one's that converts it into a lot of money, is the one's that recycle old marketing technics in a new cover and putting the biggest price tag to it. That of course after building them self a perception to you of being worth the price tag. Don't let them fool you into this mouse trap with a fake cheese as the award in hand. The fake cheese is the extreme picture and also the fact of the enormous amount of people longing for some "money making knowlegde". The fake cheese exist in large numbers also in Network Marketing and Wholesale or rather Drop shipping.

Nicky Hilton Calls Paris' Sentence "Absurd"
2007-06-01 14:11:00 Last night became the first time that Nicky Hilton has commented on her younger sister Paris’ upcoming stay at the Century Regional Detention Facility in Lynwood, California. Nicky, never really liking the spotlight, kept her comments short before returning to enjoy her evening out. “I think she should definitely be punished, but going to jail for a traffic violation is pretty absurd,” the younger Hilton sister told People magazine on Thursday at the BlackBerry Curve launch party in LA, which she attended with Paris. Also in attendance were Eva Longoria, Marcia Cross, Katherine McPhee and numerous other Hollywood starlets. During the course of the evening, Paris was “giddy and giggly” as she gabbed with her sister and a female pal, but declined to to talk to the media, saying: “I’m not doing interviews.” After serving time, Paris will reportedly be jetting off to sunny St Tropez to attend a party for the canned sparkling wine cal...

The Lal Masjid absurdity
2007-05-21 05:04:00 via Daily Times:The government-Lal Masjid drama has now gone beyond the realm of the absurd. It is amazing that followers of the two brothers, Maulanas Abdul Aziz and Abdul Rasheed Ghazi, can violate the writ of the state with impunity while the government, which has no qualms in using force against its political opponents, tucks tail and runs at the slightest threat. Consider the happenings since last Friday: the followers of the two clerics kidnapped four police officials and demanded that eleven of their brood, currently in official custody, be released in return. The government immediately went into its usual defensive mode and began negotiating with the Lal Masjid administration to try and secure the release of the detained cops. The entire episode was reminiscent of March 28 when the Lal Masjid ?Mujahideen? kidnapped two policemen. In the same drill procedure this time too, the Lal Masjid has managed to get four of its men released in return for two of the kidnapped policemen....

Discourse Of The Absurd
2007-04-21 00:41:00 To write any type of political or social commentary in this age borders on the absurd. There is no context. No universal truths, and in some cases not even a universal reality in which arguments and debate can be formed. Reality and truth are merely concepts spoon fed by corporate controlled mass media and soaked up like pablum by the delusional working slave class.Let's face it, on a playing field where lies and hypocrisy are not only acceptable tools of discourse but in fact the preferred methods of communication between the populace and the ruling class, freedom of open debate and speech is fairly meaningless.Take for example shock-jock Dom Imus. I have listened to this radio show before. I find the man moronic. Idiotic...and more importantly not funny. They fired the guy for using the term "nappy headed ho" on air. The "alleged" black leaders rose up against him and in the firestorm Imus was fired. For what? Being moronic? Being an idiot? Being not funny? While these are certai...
