The soul wishes for a tryst with you, you and me together far away in solitude..

Solitude and silence shouts schmaltzy.

The arrow struck the moon, shattering it into pieces that falls on earth as glittering remains of romanticism. Am collecting its pieces, memory lane silently sheds a drop tear.

I am at the edge of another world, not alone. Can feel you breathe…

This week I have been mostly listening to…

Tonights list is dedicated to songs that come in all shapes and sizes, literally. The criteria for the list required having a shape (or reference to shapes) in the song title or the artists name. Some songs are quite long, the New Order track clocks in at just under 7 minutes and there are a few short ones, namely the track by The Octagon and the song “Tommib” by Squarepusher which is barely over a minute long. The avid film fans among you may recognise that particular Squarepusher track from the film Lost In Translation. The particular scene that it’s from is a perfect example of music and cinema coming together to create a beautiful moment.

Herein below is an email to Twitter regarding their engaging in censorship to protect California Attorney General Jerry Brown, Oakland City Attorney John Russo and Alameda County D.A. Tom Orloff’s corruption in an ongoing case reported to the U. S. Attorney General, Department of Justice.

Ginger,

On October 17, and 21, 2009  I sent emails to Twitter complaining about a “suspension” of my account (@nowtruth) for allegedly replying to tweets sent to me and “suspicious activity”!
I have not received any response to my rejection of the claims and contesting of the “suspension”. The idea that someone can have their account suspended for replying to tweets sent to them is preposterous!!! Isn’t that the process? Further, there were @mentions, not replys, for which your system does not seem to be able to distinguish the difference!!
However, when someone tweets you, you can and should reply with a meaningful response. ALL of the @mentions/replies/responses were to related items or news of a related nature to the attention of those mentioned, not anyone else. So there is no spamming issue. What’s the offense?
There is NOTHING suspicious about this action! Were you contacted with a report of reply spam? Our tweets are all you need to establish their validity. The tweet was regarding the corruption on behalf of California Attorney General Jerry Brown, Oakland City Attorney John Russo and Alameda County D.A. Tom Orloff in an ongoing case reported to the U. S. Attorney General, Department of Justice. We have received several @mentions from people sympathetic to those parties had have tried tirelessly to silence this case and the information about it from getting out to the masses in an effort to protect them. The specific tweet in question was displaying an email from John Russo threatening a KPFA reporter, Gabrielle Wilson, if she proceeded with a radio broadcast of a show with Brown, Russo and the plaintiff in the case.

During the week of August 23, 2009 Miss Wilson received a phone call from Evan Westrep from Brown’s office. He left a voice mail message for her at radio station KPFA stating he would pass her interview request along to Brown’s schedulers.

During that same week, Miss Wilson received emails and phone calls from Oakland City Attorney Russo’s press director Alex Katz. One email Katz sent to her and Sasha Lilley, interim Program Director at KPFA, with a cc: to Mark Moromodi, Supervising Deputy for the Oakland City Attorney, proclaiming that City Attorney John Russo was not involved in the case, yet he wanted her to answer questions as to why she wanted to provide a forum for the plaintiff, al-Hakim whom he alleged had posted threatening videos about John Russo. Heres an copy of that email that was a twitpic sent to our followers:

Katz followed up that email with a voicemail message he left for Miss Wilson after the close of business just hours before the scheduled broadcast was to occur threatening her and warned Miss Wilson not to broadcast the interview and demanded she speak with him before she aired the scheduled program. He did this though he wanted Miss Wilson and KPFA to believe that John Russo and the City Attorney’s office was not involved in the case and had nothing to hide! You can listen to that voicemail message here.

Luis Medina, a manager in the music director’s office at KPFA then calls Miss Wilson just hours prior to the scheduled broadcast and leaves a voicemail message warning her that it was very important for the broadcast not to occur. He also stated that there might be very serious repercussions taken if she were to proceed as planned. She even received a phone call from the long-time regular show host, Emmitt Powell whom was contacted by the station in response to Russo’s effort to censor the show.
Miss Wilson proceeded to host the program all alone to comply with the City Attorney and KPFA’s censorship directive…without any of her invited guests. You can listen to that voicemail message here.

Miss Wilson was forced to make at least three announcements to inform the public whom had tuned in to hear this intriguing panel examine this critical civil rights and corruption case in an important election year, that this incredible show had been canceled due to KPFA’s censorship by Oakland City Attorney John Russo! You can listen to those announcements here.

Russo proceeded to engage in censorship by forcing the cancellation of the show and trying to conceal it from the public. Russo and Brown claim that they are not involved in the case yet irrefutable evidence prove otherwise! If they are not involved and have nothing to hide, why censor the show? Those actions are public now as the reporter released a statement on their crimes of which this is merely another instance of. Now for you.
You aren’t engaging in censorship are you? Have you been contacted by any of these parties or their representatives, including Alex Katz, Joe Trippi, Jeremy D. Thompson, or anyone else regarding this alleged violation of Twitter policy? Is this a problem of your system not being able to differentiate between a reply and an @mention?
I certainly know that if you were investigating suspicious activity in this case, you need to take a look at the actions of those that got you to comply with their desire to censor this case and their continuing crimes for which Twitter founder Evan Williams, co-founder Biz Stone, and Twitter are now involved. We will not stop our civil and criminal investigation in this matter as we proceed, it only widens and deepens in it’s breadth and depth.
There’s nothing even remotely suspicious about our tweets, we will not be censored, and we are continuing to investigate yours and their suspicious activity and to prosecute those involved in these continuing crimes. Anything you need to further investigate feel free to call.

We look forward to your response.

Re: Twitter Support: update on “To Whom It May Concern,    How can an account be suspende…”

Ginger,

How can an account be suspended for replying to messages sent to YOU? Isn’t that the process? When someone tweets you, you can and should reply with a meaningful response. ALL of the replies/responses were to related items or news of a related nature. What’s the offense?
There is NOTHING suspicious about this action! Were you contacted with a report of reply spam? Our tweets are all you need to establish their validity. You aren’t engaging in censorship are you?
Thanks for the response.

Ticket #605636: To Whom It May Concern, How can an account be suspende…

ginger, Oct 21 03:04 pm (PDT):Hello from Twitter,This is an automated confirmation that we received your ticket. If you’re contesting a suspension, be sure to read this entire email; you will need to take further action in order to reopen your ticket.   Please be sure your account is actually suspended. You should visit your own profile page to make sure you’re suspended and not viewing another person’s suspended profile page–many people think they are suspended when they aren’t. You’ll also know you’re suspended if you log in and see a red notice announcing your suspension on your account. Twitter primarily suspends accounts for Terms of Service violations or spam investigation. If you are suspended, it’s most likely for one or more of these reasons: · aggressive following or follower churn (repeatedly following and unfollowing users) · trend spamming (posting unrelated updates to trending topics to gain attention) · misuse of the reply feature · updates consist of links pointing to phishing sites, malware, or other harmful material · updates consist of duplicate links and/or text · updates consist mainly of links duplicated across multiple accounts, and not personal updates · account identified as potentially being part of a spam cluster · a large number of people block the profile or write in with spam complaints Please review the Twitter Rules for a more comprehensive list: http://help.twitter.com/forums/26257/entries/15790 If you feel you’ve been suspended in error, please reply to this email with a short explanation and be sure to include your username. Responding to this email will reopen this ticket and put your ticket in queue for support, but you need to reply from the address this mail was sent to. If you use an alias (such as username+alias@gmail.com), ensure that your reply comes from the alias address or your ticket may not be seen by our support staff. We will do our best to get back to you within 30 days. If this did not answer your inquiry, responding to this email will reopen this ticket.

Estos muchachos de Despertar al tocar un cover de refused me dieron ganas de ver los videos de la banda. Me acuerdo por alli del 99-98 creo yo que vi este video en MTV y me parecio una excelente banda desde allí bajé el The Shape Of Punk To Come. Este disco es de los mejores que he oído de hardcore/punk noventero. Chequen el video por si no lo han visto, de paso les dejo la canción que toco Despertar en el show.

Quite often businesses move into locations, complete work then apply for permission to carry this out. Recently there have been some prominent planning applications rejected or altered due to members of the public and the Teddington Society highlighting concerns.

Tile Depot moved into the vacant space near some of Teddington’s oldest and most beloved buildings and churches, installing shop signs that residents and ultimately Richmond Council concluded were in breach of planning guidelines: too large and not in keeping with the conservation area in which the building resides. The shop now has the signs removed until new smaller ones are installed, but it also appears as though the building lease is now for sale.

Another chain – this time Carpet Right also carried out a refit before applying for planning permission. Many residents objected to the shop frontage and flagpole. Prompted by these complaints, the retrospective planning permission received a split-decision with the flagpole sign deemed “out of keeping with the surrounding street scene, providing excessive visual cluttering”.

Kou Kou Bar was granted a late license a year ago which recently expired. The requested renewal has just been refused due to overwhelming objections from nearby residents (mainly in Church Lane) on the grounds of late-night noise pollution from music, revellers outside the bar and problems associated with drinkers leaving after closing time.

Richmond Council take a dim view of works taken out before planning permission has been granted but don’t assume that this means that the permission won’t eventually be given after the fact – as with the controversial method in which Subway takeaway was installed.

I had a daughter.  Her name was Chloe.  I made her out of sand and shells.  And this, I said to her, is why I came.  The sea was everywhere that day.  Its sounds, its smells.  And afterward, when it dissolved my Chloe away and wore my heart to glass, I knew and I refused to say, Goodbye.  And then my wife, who ordinarily would never cry, began.  Her tears flooded the basement and the yard.  And soon the moon started to influence the tide.  Hello, I said to the moon.  Hello, I said to the flood.  Hello, I said to the smooth and see-through surface that was my heart.  And though no answer came, no and-how-do-you-do-too, I knew.  I knew.  My life was going to be the only life I lived.  Love it or not.  This is how I learned to let the light shine through.

Leona Lewis is afraid of her boyfriend reactions, Lou Al-Chamaa, so that she can’t approach another man not even for art’s sake. Placed in the position to be involved in a passionate kiss with actor Chace Crawford for her new video “I Will Be” Leona has not accepted the director’s script because her boyfriend is very jealous.

“I think he would (feel jealous) if I was kissing them (her video co-stars), but I’d never do that. They wanted me and Chace to kiss in the I Will Be video. But I said ‘No way.’
“I’d just have been too embarrassed, he’s my friend! He’s so beautiful, I mean, look at him – he could be a girl. He’d be a really pretty girl.
But I just don’t think of him like that. And it wouldn’t be fair to Lou to kiss other guys.”

Although Leona has chosen to diminish the charm of the video for her boyfriend, she was pleased with the final result.

On October 16 1869 the ‘remains’ of a ten-foot tall giant were discovered on the property of William C Newell. Workmen, digging a well behind Newell’s barn, in Cardiff, New York, made the discovery. News of this incredible find soon spread and thousands of people literally queued to view the ‘giant’. Newell started charging 50 cents a head admission to view, and they still kept coming. Speculation grew as to who or what the giant could be. Some believed that it was the petrified remains of a giant man, one of those mentioned in the book of Genesis in the bible. Others thought it was a stone statue from ancient times. Of course, it was neither of these; it was in fact what has been called the greatest hoax of all time. The hoax was the brainchild of George Hull, a tobacconist from New York. Hull had concocted the scheme after an argument with a minister over a passage of the bible (Genesis 6:4) stating giants once roamed the earth. The minister thought the passage should be taken literally, Hull disagreed. He then thought of creating a man from stone and passing it off as the real thing. As well as poking fun at religious types it would also enable him to make some money. Newell and the stonecutters who carved it were also in on the hoax. Costing Hull some $2,600 (£1,592) to make, he more than recouped his money when a group of businessmen got together and paid $37,500 (£22,968) to buy the giant before moving it to Syracuse for it to be exhibited. It was and was soon exposed as a fake when a prominent paleontologist examined it and pointed out that chisel marks could still be seen on it and that it was an obvious fake. Realising the game was up, Hull confessed. However the truth did little to damage the giant’s reputation as people still flocked to see it, rechristening it with the nickname ‘Old Hoaxey’. Well-known showman P.T. Barnum stepped in. He’d heard of the giant’s popularity and offered the businessmen $60,000 (£36,753) to lease it from them for 12 weeks. When they refused Barnum hired men to construct an exact copy of it. He then placed the copy in his museum in New York, where it was soon drawing larger crowds than the original. Today both the original and the replica are still on display at the Farmer’s Museum (Cooperstown New York) and Marvin’s Marvellous Mechanical Museum (Detroit) respectively, where they still attract hundreds of visitors a year. Thanks for reading.

According to CNN’s Kiran Chetry – Anchor, CNN’s American Morning

A justice of the peace in Louisiana who has drawn widespread criticism for refusing to issue a marriage license to an interracial couple says he has no regrets about his decision.

“It’s kind of hard to apologize for something that you really and truly feel down in your heart you haven’t done wrong,” Keith Bardwell told CNN affiliate WAFB on Saturday.

The couple at the center of the controversy, Terence McKay and Beth Humphrey-McKay, is now married and fighting to get the justice’s license revoked. They spoke to Kiran Chetry on CNN’s “American Morning” Monday.

Huffington Post reports the progressive media watchdog group Media Matters, along with the organization America’s Voice announced a new ad attacking Dobbs and CNN for airing “60 minutes of anti-immigrant hate.” And in a deft touch of political messaging, the groups announced that they had their ad buyer place the spot on CNN itself, during the network’s “Latino in America” series. CNN has refused to air the ad.
