26 Year Old Mom Doing Well After Hand Transplant

Oh boy, this one made me laugh. Still they are surprisingly well done, though not quite there.

All day I've been dozing on and off trying to forget about my rather excruciating toothache. Checked out the newly revamped radiohead.com site, started listening to some dubstep suggestions from his Thomness.

And yet oddly I kind of prefer this sappy, anodyne by-the-numbers pop crap. I can either laugh at it or think, you know these guys (Ark Music) are brilliant opportunists or are offering some excoriating comment on popular culture.

Why I am no longer a Christian

Lowen says...

He flat out says that part 2 might seem too emotional for people, it's just there to show Christians that he actually was one. So skip to the next part if you find the music too sappy or whatever.

Terry Gilliam criticizes Spielberg and Schindler's List

shuac says...

>> ^quantumushroom:

Dudes, you won't believe this, except someone sifted it around here....the "sappy" ending of A.I. was NOT Spielberg's idea...it was Kubrick's!


Be that as it may, I'd have been much more willing to endure Kubrick at the helm of that ending than Spielberg. What's written in the treatment matters less than you think. What matters is HOW the story is told. For instance, can you imagine a voice over narration explaining the ending of 2001? That's what Gilliam is describing here: the nice explanatory bow that wraps everything up. The "sap" at the ending of A.I. belongs solely to Spielberg, I assure you.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V-xpJRwIA-Q, I mocked that up and its to short but I'd use that one above the sappy one, this is more happy dancy sort.

In reply to this comment by ant:
I had no problems with this music. Got an example of which music you would use?

>> ^BoneRemake:
I was EXTREMLY turned off by the music. WhIch is what I did with the volume.

Which music do you prefer then? Rap/Hip-hop? Heavy Metal? Ugh.

No I have a very eclectic music collection and liking, However with this video this music just goes way over the mushy feel good puff piece that it is, which is fine, its a good story. Although to put it bluntly the music makes it "gawdy" just way over the top and not fitting. Kind of a jack ass reply on your part though, so what If I where to like either of those mentioned more then I do this Micheal Bolton love fest music.

Obama's speech on "economic crisis" is a vile concoction (Worldaffairs Talk Post)

NetRunner says...

>> ^marinara:
How does the leader of the House Of Representatives Progressive Caucus treat Obama?
He defies him and refuses to vote for the bill without the public option.
I paraphrase the Congressional Progressive Caucus:
No public option, No bill.
Do I consider Obama enemy no. 1? Please! You are making me laugh!!!
But he's in my way and he's not one of us.
And I'm not a racist.


I've been calling members of the CPC myself, asking them to take that exact stance.

I wouldn't say that I did so because I felt a need to make a stand against Obama, but because I wanted to make sure Obama got a bill with a public option in it to sign, like he wants.

Speaking purely about the political machinations, I don't think a veto threat from Obama would have improved the likely legislation from the Congress. It just would've turned conservadems from having soft opposition into having stern opposition. Doing things this way leaves the door open to arm twisting later. So I can't really get worked up into a froth about his refusal to issue his own "no public option, no bill" threat.

I certainly am not going to call him a traitor to the progressive cause, or declare him not "one of us" over it, or anything else he's done up to this point.

I do wish he'd embrace some of his own sappy sayings like the Audacity of Hope, and the Fierce Urgency of Now, rather than the Naive Hope for Bipartisan Unicorns, and the Fierce Urgency of Whenever he seems to be practicing.

If he wins anyways, I'm willing to forgive it. If he gets rolled, I'm not. Right now we don't know what kind of record he's ultimately going to have, but so far he's 1 for 1 on major legislation (teh stimulus), and I suspect he'll win on this one too.

"The End of Globalisation"

GeeSussFreeK says...

There is a much better, less jaded documentary on this called "Commanding heights". It's 6 hours, but it doesn't cherry pick examples for any one side. Shows the failures AND successes of globalization and doesn't play sappy piano music all the way through.

This is what happens to all ac's gentlemen callers the day after.. eh..? Eh..?

I've not heard of this one before, but it does seem like a sappy/sad romantic thing. I wanna know why it's dark... is he an alien monster or something?
