<description><![CDATA[The most dangerous aspect of having elected  a bombastic antecedent President is that he believes hi]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>The most dangerous aspect of having elected  a bombastic antecedent President is that he believes his self-imposed, ridiculous, unenlightened and radical doctrines. He blissfully ignores the fact that his ideology has been tried, and tested , on the backs of 60 million people ,whose  untimely deaths served only to prove this ideology of redistribution to be a total failure.</p>
<p>As the Germans and the rest of the free world  celebrates the anniversary of  the fall of the Berlin Wall, our  President continues  building brick-by-brick,  another wall around the American people.  Europeans, Koreans and even Russians will tell you that walls choke freedom, stifles free expression and leads to a huge &#8220;Have&#8221; and &#8220;Have not&#8221; gaps in society.  The bricklayers become the masters and the new plan unfolds on the back of the unsuspecting American citizens. Our freedoms are  being taken from us ensuring us to choke on our individual rights from here on end.  Obama&#8217;s vision is to redistribute the wealth not just among Americans but the world over. It is a real fact.</p>
<p>The problem comes from those many kool-aiders that walk the walk of the sheep. Those are people that blindly follow others losing self in the process. They are great at parroting the wisdom and stupidities of others, yet never searching answers for themselves. They follow a P.C. ideology because that is what they are told to do. There is no independent kool-aider thinking. `</p>
<p>Today the kool-aiders are the Obamites.They represent half of the nation including most of the media for the exception of Fox News, the Wall Street Journal and certain conservative magazines and talk radio shows.</p>
<p>As The President&#8217;s administration continues to infringe on our liberties, those conservative voices are the only line left open for people to get their facts straight. I was under the impression that America was no longer allowed to dictate how other countries should rule. How does Obama explain this new concept to Americans and the world over that it is time to redistribute the wealth to all that have none? Does he see himself as Robin Hood stealing from the rich to give to the poor? Maybe he should start wearing green tights and walk the streets with his new friend the Jolly Green Giant who will  protect him when the hungry sheep realize their grass was stolen from under their feet.</p>

<p style="text-align:center;"><em>Share my woman, share my wine,<br />

<p><strong>Triarii</strong> is a bombastic martial industrial project from Germany on <a href="http://www.eternal-soul.de/" target="_blank">Eternal Soul</a> records.</p>
<p>The song above is a collaboration with the apocalyptic folk project  <strong>Ordo Rosarius Equilibrio</strong> of the <em>Pièce Héroique</em> album, which led to the formation of <strong>TriORE</strong> that released an album in 2009.</p>

<description><![CDATA[One of the most difficult of words in the English language neither a bombastic word nor a difficult ]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>One of the most difficult of words in the English language neither a bombastic word nor a difficult word to spell. In fact it is a word that seems to be the hardest thing to flow out of anyone&#8217;s mouth&#8230;no matter what the age (from a young rebellious child to a hardened 80 year old man!). It is the word <strong>&#8216;Sorry&#8217;. </strong>Even Billy Joel seems to agree with that statement through one of his best selling songs.</p>
<p>&#8216;Sorry&#8217;&#8230;can also be said in many ways, <em>&#8217;soooo soorry&#8217;</em> (sarcastically) to <em>&#8216;</em><strong>SORRY&#8217; </strong>(in anger) to &#8216;<em>sorry&#8217;</em> (what dear? I can&#8217;t quite hear what you said&#8230;). A lot of times, the word sorry gets stuck in between the desire to be Right to the fear of being Wrong  and with a twist of deceit of wanting to keep our Pride (and sometimes Face, too). Yes, we ego-centric people living in this modern microwave society are tongue-tied and bashful to say the least, to admit that it was actually &#8216;my fault&#8217;.</p>
<p>What brave souls of the past, I remember watching a golden favorite, <em>&#8220;To Kill a Mockingbird&#8221; </em>where the main character (an African man) was accused for a crime that he did not commit. I loved his character&#8230;so humble, so gentle and without pride (but faced with tons of prejudice)&#8230;and you could see that at one point, he even considered taking on the punishment for a crime he did not commit (which made me think that he was willing to say a Silent Sorry for it).</p>
<p>What makes us hold on to our Pride (even when we are wrong and ought to apologize)? I believe it could be a many things from our past and the environment we grew up to the influences we open ourselves to through the years to the all the &#8220;standing for our Rights&#8221; movement. We all grew up rebelling in a form or other. Turn on the News today and you can see the same things that plagued Bible times&#8230;Sin, Lust, Greed, Jealousy, Anger and Pride.</p>
<p>I have through the years, mellowed from a very hot and short tempered man to an almost even tempered and sometimes sliding to the mild tempered side. I could say I have matured, but I like to believe that I have CHOSEN to CHANGE. I saw the pain I personally put my loved ones through the many years and decided that I have to begin to QUIT IT. Yes&#8230;time has been the testimony of the changes I have made&#8230;I never gave up but most of all, the people who loved me, did NOT Give Up on me! (that was probably my saving Grace).</p>
<p>In the Name of LOVE&#8230;the Love I have for my God, the Love I have for my Wife and Family&#8230;I made a shift and after many encounters with the dark-side of reality&#8230;I finally see the light and I am truly Blessed and Happy about the Journey&#8230;in which I am still learning from&#8230;each and every day.</p>
<p>Where are you at today? I urge you to Choose Life and take the Stand to walk away from Pride&#8230;the beauty of your decision will become a Flower blossoming into your Destiny.</p>

<description><![CDATA[In Singapore printing or even publishing a book is an expensive affair because of the high operation]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><div class="separator" style="clear:both;text-align:center;"><a href="http://class95cafes.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/page8_1.gif" style="margin-left:1em;margin-right:1em;"><img border="0" src="http://class95cafes.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/page8_1.gif?w=300" /></a></div>
<p>In Singapore printing or even publishing a book is an expensive affair because of the high operation cost. I have friend who simply love to write and his passion is to publish a book. However, in Sinagpore it was difficult to get a book published. High inventory costs and limited financial resources The other alternative was traditional self-publishing, an often difficult, and expensive proposition for the author. They had to take time off to attend to the tedious tasks involved in publishing their own book: typesetting, lay-outs, registering copyrights, attaining an ISBN number. The most difficult part of all was having to invest a significant amount of money to pay for the large minimum print run. (Printing books with at least 1000 copies to bring the per book costs down to an affordable level) This would often result in money being tied up and a large inventory of books that could take years to sell. The other day I drop him an email to revival his dream to publish his book again and I called it oversea cost effective feasibility analysis  publishing. Using bombastic and technical quote, in simplistically mean taking advantage of Singapore high dollar rate conversion in peso, now printing a book considered cheaper and feasible, hope that his first book will be out next year. The publisher quote me about $390 an average expenditure for 1 week average Singaporean for grocery etc. The publisher say &#8220;just bring in your friend manuscript and depending on the level and amount of work needed, you can pick and choose from our basic publishing package and optional add-on services. If your manuscript is ready for print you can have your book out within 10 days&#8221;.  His dream now become reality in a making as, as for being the best seller, fame and fortune that MIGHT come later. At least I called it a start and not stuff that make of dream dust, no offense jian en.    Classic PackageP12,500  about Singapore dollar $390</p>
<p>√ Discounted print costs using their Print on Demand System.<br />√ Assign an ISBN Number.<br />√ Include author&#8217;s copyright in the book.<br />√ Create barcodes for the back.<br />√ Deposit 3 copies for the Philippine Copyright registration<br />√ 2 Proof copies for author prior to printing. Additional proof copies will be charged accordingly.<br />√ Assistance in the layout of cover using illustrations or photos from the author.<br />√ Store and backup of your finished digital book for easy archival andreprinting on their system.<br />√ 10 Full-color posters for marketing and promotion.

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>sementara kebosanan membrowse buku image processing tatkala run program banyak kali tetapi menemukan banyak error, aku terbrowse lah pula blog aku dengan sengajanya. from the beginning until now. baru aku perasan, blog aku ni macam langsung tidak intellectual. banyak sangat bahasa pasar. dan isu-isu yang nothingness. hence, tiada proses pengembangan minda berlaku.</p>
<p>aku rase aku perlu tingkatkan kosa-kata bahasa melayu aku dan juga english. dan mungkin perlu  banyak menggunakan ayat-ayat bombastic seperti, masochistic ataupun divinity? (divinity tidak cukop bombastic).  sebentar, biar aku google cari ayat bombastic sikit.</p>
<p>ini die, perkataan-perkataan bombastic seperti, <span style="color:#0000ff;"><strong><em>frenetic, castigation, burgeon, boulevardier, anathematize, cacophony</em></strong></span> dan banyak lagi perlu dicerapkan dalam setiap sentences. jangan tanye aku maksud ayat bombastic tadi. aku pun tidak tahu. entah-entah kalau aku pronounce pun, lain bunyinya. ( silalah layari laman web <strong>dictionary.com </strong>untuk mendapatkan setiap definisi ayat-ayat tersebut di mana, ada play button untuk anda mendengar the correct pronounciation as well.)  untuk mencapai impian meningkatkan blog untuk menjadi lebih intelektual, sila dump majalah-majalah seperti cleo serte adik beradiknya dan mula membace majalah TIMES dan reader&#8217;s digest walaupun membosankan sebab tiada memaparkan koleksi pakaian-pakaian, kasut-kasut dan handbag-handbag of the month.</p>
<p>semoga berjaya.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>&#8220;Viata religioasa</p>
<p>Libertatea religioasa este absoluta in toata Austria si in toata Germania. </p>
<p>O prima consecinta, aproape generalizata in Germania, este scaderea interesului pentru religie. Eforturile deserventilor cultici se indreapta in special spre trezirea (chiar provocarea) lui. Se cheltuiesc sume mari, se folosesc mijloacele cele mai moderne, dar cu rezultate infime. Adventistii din Germania nu fac exceptie. De exemplu am participat in Darmstadt la inceputul unei astfel de campanii si la inchiderea ei. Drept rezultat, o tinara a fost prezentata Comunitatii locale ca doreste sa intre ca membra in aceasta Comunitate. Felicitari, urari, cadouri, etc. In particular, am aflat dupa ceea, ca in zilele urmatoare trebuia sa aiba loc casatoria acestei tinere cu un tanar din Comunitate. Presedintele Conferintei din Hamburg, A. Patzke mi-a spus textual: &#8220;La noi oamenii au casa, au automobile, au cont in banca, dar au sufletul gol. Asteptam sa vina o persecutie peste noi.” </p>
<p>Exista si exceptii de la constatarea de mai sus. Penticostalismul si dizidentele lui, ca religie primitiva, a simturilor, isi face simtita prezenta in sudul Germaniei. Cu nuanta lor de Senzational si bombastic, martorii lui Iehova fac o permanenta propaganda prin locurile agIomerate. Ei impart gratuit brosuri si invitatii prin gari, in pasajele subterane, in fata marilor magazine universale, exploatind fie curiozitatea oamenilor, fie nelinistea lor fata de viitor. Cu o nuanta intens apocaliptica, ei se recomanda cu certitudine ca “alesii” imparatiei care va veni. Wurmbrandt si altii ca el, se dau drept reprezentantii supraconfesionali ai bisericii subterane (Untergrund Kirche), martirizata in tarile socialiste (a se vedea afisul anexat). Ei string mii de oameni la adunarile lor si sute de mii de marci. In fine, mai reusesc sa adune mii de oameni unii, care sub firma religioasa, prezinta un fel de spectacole de varietati. Am asistat, evident, incognito, la o astfel de manifestare in Geradstetten, sub firma Allianz.&#8221;</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><a href="http://www.merriam-webster.com/cgi-bin/audio.pl?bombas01.wav=bombast" target="_blank"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-353" title="bombast" src="http://burdujan.wordpress.com/files/2009/02/audio.gif" alt="bombast" width="16" height="11" /></a> • \BAHM-bast\  • noun</p>
<p>: pretentious inflated speech or writing<br />
[Ro] stil bombastic; bombasticism; (despre vorbe, stil etc.; adesea adverbial) caracter umflat, emfatic, pretenţios.</p>
<p><strong>Exemplu în context:</strong><br />
Laura complained that the editorial columns in her local newspaper were full of bombast and offered little in the way of intelligent opinion.<br />
Laura s-a plâns că rubricile editoriale în ziarul local erau pline de emfază şi ofereau puţine idei inteligente.</p>
<p>The original meaning of <strong>bombast</strong> (<a title="în prezent arhaic">now obsolete</a>) is <em><a title="bumbac sau orice alt material fibros">cotton or any soft fibrous material</a> <a title="folosit de căptuşeală">used as padding or stuffing</a></em>. It is derived through Middle French <strong>bombace</strong>, from Medieval Latin <strong>bombax</strong>, which means <a title="bunbac, vată"><em>cotton</em></a>. <strong>Bombax</strong> in turn comes from <strong>bombyx</strong>, a Latin and ultimately Greek word that means <a title="vierme de mătase"><em>silkworm</em></a> or <a title="mătase">silk</a>. Etymologists <a title="nu sunt siguri">aren&#8217;t certain</a> <a title="de ce a avut loc trecerea de la mătase la bumbac">why the shift from silk to cotton occurred</a>. <strong>Bombast</strong> has been retained in modern English <a title="deoarece a preluat sensul figurat">because it took on a figurative sense</a> used in reference to speech or writing.</p>

<p style="text-align:center;">(<a href="http://www.sxc.hu/photo/900730">stock.xchng</a>)</p>
<p>For what avails correct speech that is not understood by the hearer, when there is no reason whatever for speaking, if what we say is not understood by those to whose understanding we are appealing. The teacher, then, will shun all words that do not inform. It is a mark of a noble character to love the truth in words, not the words. For what is the purpose of a golden key, if it cannot open what we want? Or what objection is there to a wooden key, if it is effective, since we seek only to reveal what is concealed?</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Hay.</p>
<p>I just found out that I&#8217;m going to write a post honoring my favorite bands and artists. The last couple of days I&#8217;ve had lots of time to kill by listening to music, and I&#8217;ve gotta tell you, it needs more cowbell (ie. it&#8217;s awesome). So, yeah, you can use this as a recommendation list as well. Everything I post here is pure and utter magnificient music that needs to be heard and enjoyed.</p>
<p>Just to start off, nothing can beat the likes of Dream Theater, Primordial and Devin Townsend when it comes to grand compositions and brilliant melodies. Dream Theater is kind of self-explanatory, considering each member of the band is considered by many to be the greatest artists in the world on their respective instruments. Most of you may or may not have heard of Devin Townsend and Primordial, and it&#8217;s truly a shame if you haven&#8217;t. Few artists in the world can contain their originality as Primordial does, writing lyrics about how to lose your faith, how it is to be forced to relinquish and be driven away from your culture and stories about horrible famines of old. All followed by amazing singing by Alan &#8216;Nemtheanga&#8217; Averill and the unpredictable, warm, but yet gritty and technical melodies performed by the rest of the band. Definitely one of my all-time favorite bands. </p>
<p>Devin Townsend is the wackiest Canadian I&#8217;ve ever heard of. He bears the traits of a genius and I can&#8217;t count the number of times I&#8217;ve said that he&#8217;s going to be this generation&#8217;s Beethoven, no doubt. I mean, check out the albums <em>Terria </em>and <em>Presents: Ziltoid the Omnipresent</em>. These, my readers, are works of a true artist. His contribution to Ayreon&#8217;s album <em>The Human Equation</em> is also worth checking out, as he delivers one hell of an act on <em>Day Sixteen: Loser.</em></p>
<p>Recently I&#8217;ve started listening to some Dark Moor again, humming to some old tunes that were long forgotten, but now dominate my Spotify playlist heavily. Dark Moor is a Spanish symphonic power metal band that just released their seventh studio album <em>Autumnial</em>. If anything, I would compare it to Kamelot&#8217;s <em>The Ghost Opera</em>, even though they&#8217;re far from comparable. The music is bombastic, majestic and epic, it really feels like it&#8217;s made with lots of feeling and emotions, something I love. Nothing is better than hearing artists really enjoying themselves doing what they do best. </p>
<p>&#8230;I just lost my will to write anything more, &#8217;cause I&#8217;m THAT lazy. But to make your day way better, here&#8217;s an inspirational picture of mr. Devin Townsend:</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p style="text-align:center;"><img src="http://www.darksoft.net/hexpsp058.jpg" alt="Hexaxis" height="272" width="480" /></p>
<p>Hexaxis XXI is a puzzle game that started life on the PC and has been ported successfully to the PSP.  Developer Darksoft has just released a new update for the homebrew title (version 8), and it&#8217;s almost as good as the big screen version. Look familiar to some of you? Yes, it&#8217;s based off of Devil Dice and the more recent Bombastic, but with Hexaxis you can get it for the low, low price of free. However, it&#8217;s not a total copycat. Hexaxis has added a few twists- most noticeably, the playing field is tilted vertically and feels a bit like Tetris. While in Devil Dice you can move the dice in any direction, here the dice fall from the top, moving them left or right before they reach the end. The game&#8217;s presentation is very polished for a PSP homebrew title, including some pro-sounding music as well as a 3D interface. If you have a homebrew-ready PSP (this won&#8217;t work on official Sony firmware), this game is a great addition for any puzzle enthusiast.</p>
