A must-see film: Banished
2008-04-14 13:34:00
A hundred years ago, in communities across the U.S., white residents forced thousands of black families to flee their homes. Even a century later, these towns remain almost entirely white. BANISHED tells the story of three of these communities and their black descendants, who return to learn their shocking histories.In Forsyth County, Georgia, where a thousand black residents were expelled, the film explores the question of land fraudulently taken, and follows some descendants in their quest to uncover the real story of their family's land. In Pierce City, Missouri, a man has designed his own creative form of reparation—he wishes to disinter the remains of his great-grandfather, who was buried there before the banishment. And in Harrison, Arkansas, home to the headquarters of the Ku Klux Klan, a white community struggles with their town's legacy of hate.By investigating this little-known chapter in American history, BANISHED also takes a contemporary look at the legacy of racial...
Why fashion has banished the bosom
2008-03-26 02:18:00
Why fashion has banished the bosom Women love the push-up bra, so why are designers determined to make us hide our best assets, asks Hannah Betts Nowadays, fashion and frontage do not mix.  Falling flat: Marks & Spencer now sells a J cup, but this bears no relation to this spring catwalk'sAs the owner of a 32E bosom, I was once informed that the Vivienne Westwood clothes I was eyeing up were for women who want to look as if they have breasts, not for those already in possession of them. On another occasion, a designer stared at my unclothed form and stuttered: "Hourglass!" in tones one might use to utter the word "paedophile". Most mortifying of all was the moment an Armani tailor waved her hand dismissively across my chest, before pronouncing: "These are not Armani!"And now Vogue has joined in. Fashion director Lucinda Chambers makes it clear that a girl's best assets are worse than last season: they are over, over, over, and must be disguised at all costs.In the late...
The Top 5 Songs That Should Be Banished
2008-02-18 06:04:00
Having grown disgruntled with hearing the same handful of awful songs all the time - I’ve decided to ban some of them. Feel free to add your own submissions to the list by commenting. Satisfaction (The Rolling Stones) Okay, maybe not a lifetime ban since it was once a pretty great song but lets please put it on hiatus. Five years should suffice. Not only will the classic Keith Richards guitar lick not sound during this mandatory sentence but no one is allowed to mention it as the greatest rock song of all time, either. Shut up. AC/DC (Post Bon Scott) Think of an AC/DC song that Brian Johnson “sings” and that’s the one that should be banned. Just pick one – they’re all exactly the same. Back In Black, Thuderstruck, Hell’s Bells, You Shook Me All Night Long, For Those About To Rock, Have A Drink On Me, Highway to Hell. All gone. Forever. Sorry, Coors Light fans. Sweet Child O’ Mine (Guns & Roses) Slash’s guitar lick is great - too bad it’s been sucked thro...

NOVALIS - BANHISHED BRIDGE (1973) Banished Bridge ...
2007-08-17 11:22:00
NOVALIS - BANHISHED BRIDGE (1973) Banished Bridge is the first album from what was perhaps the best purely symphonic progressive rock band to come out of Germany. Though this was actually the last of the band's prime albums that I ended up picking up, I've found it to be thoroughly enjoyable, though marked by some expected flaws. Banished Bridge is pretty much essential for those who enjoyed the band's next two albums, Novalis and the classic Sommerabend, both indispensable slabs of lush, melodic, yet energetic symphonic progressive, and is actually much better than the comparatively disappointing fourth album, Brandung. Although the debut has some stylistic differences from "classic" Novalis, that is English vocals and no electric guitar, the basic vibe of those records is definitely present in a fully mature form. Instrumentally, the band is dominated by Lutz Rahn's organ, which gives Banished Bridge an earthier edge. The solemn, yet romantic tone of the band's compositions i...

Banished to the Google Underworld
2007-04-30 22:22:00
It seems funny that just after I wrote about the Ten Commandments of Search, I stumbled across a Forbes article called "Condemned to Google Hell" that examines the often confusing issue of Google's supplemental index. The article includes interviews with several businesses that have found themselves banished to the supplemental results and also features a few quotes from some well known search marketers. Andy Greenburg writes: Google Hell is the worst fear of the untold numbers of companies that depend on search results to keep their business visible online. Getting stuck there means most users will never see the site, or at least many of the site's pages, when they enter certain keywords. And getting out can be next to impossible--because site operators often don't know what they did to get placed there. Google's programmers appear to have created the supplemental index with the best intentions. It's designed to lighten the workload of Google's "spider," the algorithm that co...

Without further ado, here is the [...]
Article writers block banished forever.
2006-12-13 19:54:02
Writing Isn?t for Everyone, But Article Writing Is. Article writing is something that gets tedious to the publisher who sends out an Ezine every week. Good article writing is tough stuff. My belief is that the field of article marketing and article writing is just getting started. Article writing is one of the best ways to get traffic to your site. That is why article writing is the most utilized Internet marketing media today. Writing articles is one of the best ways to achieve phenomenal success online. One of the main purposes of article writing is to obtain a one way link and generate traffic to your site. Because of this, the value of article writing is immeasurable. Article writing is one of the most frustrating things because we want so much to write articles about what we are selling or offering. Perhaps the most important thing about article writing is what you do with your articles once you've completed them. How does writing articles or publishing to an Ezine boost ...
