DAVID BANNER'S 2M1 EMPOWERMENT PROJECT
2012-05-24 15:38:00
Hip-Hop renaissance man, David Banner, is currently using his star power to encourage artists and creatives to control their own music and content. His 2M1 Movement is calling for two million people to donate $1 dollar to create their own pipeline and opportunity outside of record labels and distribution conglomerates. Mr. Banner makes several points concerning the intrinsic devaluation of current "urban" music and culture. He points out how "free" albums and mixtapes contribute to the devalued state of urban culture and product.

"God Bless America" by Bobcat Goldthwait: a violent movie about kindness
2012-05-12 07:21:00
"God Bless America" trailer, (2011) directed by Bobcat Goldthwait, starring Joel Murray and Tara Lynne BarrJoel Murray, Tara Lynne Barr, and Bobcat Goldthwait at "God Bless America" screening at the Alamo Drafthouse for SXSW 2012.Aiding in the searing of audience to screen effect that works so well in God Bless America?s favor is the chemistry found in its lead duo, Joel Murray and Tara Lynne Barr. Murray plays Frank straight as an arrow. In his opening monologue, we?re introduced to his droll worldview, as personified by the hyper-annoying neighbors on the other side of his paper-thin walls. He?s a tragic figure, but even Murray?s expressionless moments are full of life and energy that move us toward those inevitable, shocking moments of violence. Like any great tragic figure, the lights are on behind Frank?s dead, weathered eyes. The fire rages beneath a stoic disposition. If Murray were not already such a well-regarded big screen player, it would be right to say that this is a ma...

Manmade climate change theory continues to be battered by reality
2012-05-08 17:25:00
  Commentary by James H. Shott   Two of the major concerns of environmentalists are manmade climate change, and in response to this theory, the absolute necessity of green energy sources to replace the relatively inexpensive conventional energy we now get from coal, oil and natural gas.   Although our air is cleaner today than at any time in the last hundred years or so, it?s not clean enough for the environmental zealots inside and outside of government agencies. Hardly anyone would argue that if the activities of humans seriously damage the Earth?s atmosphere and raise its average temperature, it just makes sense to move away from fossil fuel energy toward non-polluting green energy. All they need is a plausible scenario that human activity is indeed warming the planet to dangerous levels, and people will accept moving to green energy.   However, as time passes more and more evidence comes forth weakening the case for manmade climate change; the data no lon...
COUNTER OP-ED: THE "AMERICAN" WAY

It Starts At The Dinner Table?..
2012-04-30 23:50:00
By: J Robert Giles @JRobertGiles ?Each day of our lives, we make deposits in the memory banks of our children.?   - Charles R. Swindoll   It?s a cliché to say that being a parent changes the way you look at things. Of course it does. For most of us, becoming a parent means an abrupt, loud, and completely exhausting end to the life we had led to that point. It doesn?t matter how old the parents are or how well planned the pregnancy may have been, once that child arrives, the world of the parent is a completely different one. Parents find a joy in seeing the world through the eyes of their children. There?s an indescribable sense of pleasure to be found in watching your child figure out a concept with which you yourself struggled as a child. Some are more momentous like watching them suffer a competitive loss but take away the appropriate lessons. Others are more humorous like watching a 7 year old boy in complete awe of the ?curly fry.? The feeling a parent has at the...

The Cost of the "Five Finger Discount"
2012-04-27 15:01:00
It was a simple project:  put on the new grill flame covers purchased at a big box store. The old ones had rusted and worn out and these replacements would "take a sec to put on " and including time to wash and clean the grill ? 15-20 minutes in a busy schedule.  Sounded simple! Flame covers that were maximum protected Then came the packaging material on each of the four flame covers - very tough garage scissors were required to cut through the plastic on each one. It was not a simple process and each one seemed to take an hour to open to just remove the product.  Then the brain started working on the cost of the plastic ? After some contemplation on why it was wrapped so tight with such tough plastic, I realized that is was an industry standard product. I thought back to when a product like this could be picked up with a simple price tag on it. You carried it to the cash register, the cashier rang it up, buyer paid for it and took it home and installed it. W...

The 99% Spring: So What?
2012-04-26 11:59:00
So What? The 99% Spring is a effort to mobilize the people in support of the current President's reelection.  How can this be, you ask, since President Obama is never mentioned on their website or in their training?  If you compare the major themes of the 99% Spring with President Obama's political statements and the ideas in his book, "The Audacity to Hope," you will see that they are virtually identical. Their overall plan probably looks something like this: 1. Occupy Wall Street (OWS).  Through mass publicity of OWS protests, bring to the people's attention a vehicle for them to protest their grievances against free-market capitalism and the current form of government.  Provide the current socialist leadership across the United States experience leading protests.  (See my previous post discussing Occupy Wall Street.) 2. Train protest leaders.  Attract, indoctrinate, radicalize, and train common people who...
GOOD MORNING AMERICA Gets Mashed!

It turns out everything’s better when done mash-up style… including commercials. Our favorite so far has to have been the downright brilliant ad used to advertise the release of COMMUNITY’s first season on DVD. But this week, a new challenger has stepped into the ring thanks to a celebrity-fuelled, catchy-as-all-get-out ad ABC’s been running for GOOD MORNING AMERICA (Airing weekdays from 7-9PM). Any vid that gets the blood pumping and features The Muppets deserves a shout-out!
The 99% Spring: Themes and Targets
2012-04-25 11:54:00
Themes and Targets It is crucial to understand the ideology behind, and the objectives of, the 99% Spring.  What follows is a summary based on their website and the training material found therein. Who are the 1%?  The 1% are defined as "not just rich people, but those people who deliberately and intentionally use their power and wealth to rig the economy and co-opt the democratic process." "Rich people don't need governments...they take care of themselves." "The 1% attack our democracy and government." "The 1% want to protect their control over the workplace and economy." "The 1% are trying to take away the right to vote." "Those with money supress the many." "The 1% strategy is to divide and conquer--attack and shut out minorities (Latinos, Muslims, GLBT, etc.) from the economy.  The 1% attack minorities to distract the people from the real culprit of our woes--the 1%." "The 1% trashes the planet." Who are the 99%?  Ge...

Dear Mona El Tahawy has caused an uproar online yesterday with her long essay in Foreign policy?s special Sex issue with the title ?Why they hate us !?? In 24 hours there have been strong reactions mainly from Arabs and Muslims who refused this orientalist view to women and men in the Arab and Muslim world. From Dima El Khatib : Love , not hatred , Dear Mona ! From Karim Malek : Case in Point : Mona El Tahawy?s FP article From Mona Karim : ?Why Do they hate us !??
