Thanks to bz6262 for the Lyrics. I am the stone that builder refused I am the visual The inspiration That made lady sing the blues I'm the spark that makes your idea bright The same spark that lights the dark So that you can know your left from your right I am the ballot in ya box The bullet in ya gun The inner glow that lets you know To call your brother son The story that just begun The promise of what's to come And I'm 'a remain a soldier till the war is won The street, to see ya drawls, Sing of the hunger, pain, Want to call out 'cha flaws, The thing you don't wanna claim. Pride and joy, ya baby boy, Your inner child's toy, Your saving grace, the winner of the race, the b-boy. A new age scholar, with millennium mindstate, Master of education, doctor or candidate. No, that aint a analogy of me through rap, That's a true that...... But once you hear the capital A, rap it or stay, With for a while, and it won't go away This is the tale of two cities: from to the hood to the woods, Away from the nitty-gritty, To the now we all good, No more, corner to corner liquor store with check, cash And now it's, wall to wall shoppin' mall to spend cash, in Lush greenery, beautiful scenery Acquired environment, no sirens or machinery And seems to be, so peaceful and unthreatenin, But there goes the neighborhood, as soon as we get get settled in. I guess it's true, the way the sayin' goes: You can change a wardrobe, but not the man under the clothes. And you can, walk a mile in ...

Remnick deserves credit for telling Obamas story more completely than others, for lending a reporters zeal to the task, for not ducking the discussion of race and for peeling back several layers of the onion that is Barack Obama. The Washington Post Superb. Beautifully written and artfully constructed. The Economist Ambitious and well executedIts fair and high-minded, sensitive but dispassionate, admiring but never fawningIts this mix of intellect, fact, and feeling that distinguish Remnicks assessment of Obamas victory.Time Out New York If you care about American politics, you have to read The Bridge. Salon Remnick, editor of the New Yorker, offers a detailed but lusterless account of Barack Obama's historic ascent. As a piece of "biographical journalism," the book succeeds ably enough and offers familiar commentary on Obama's cosmopolitan childhood with strains of isolation and abandonment straight out of David Copperfield-rootless, fatherless, with a loving but naïve and absent mother, he suffered racial taunts and humiliations at the hands of his schoolmates. We read how Obama's famous composure was hard-won, how he constructed his personality in opposition to his father's grandiose self-regard, his transformation from "Barry" to "Barack," the drug use, the burgeoning racial and political consciousness-rehashing events that the subject himself has covered in his frank memoirs. But for the scope (and size) of the book, Remnick's interest is ultimately limited to a ...
Film: Man Bites Dog Directed by Remy Belvaux, Andre Bonzel Belgium (1992) Crime Drama/Media Satire 9 parts/90 mins In French with English subtitles (default) Please be sure to turn on the CC (closed captions) button to view subtitles WARNING: Film contains adult language, adult situations, brief nudity, and graphic violence. (Rated NC17 by MPAA) Please do not flag this film because it is such a relatively unknown film to the general public that its unlikely that a kid would happen to come upon it by chance. Anyone who knows about this film already knows what they are getting into. Moreover, I do not think the violence is gratuitous—understand the films message and purpose. (Read Below) Synopsis: Controversial winner of the International Critics Prize at the 1992 Cannes Film Festival, Man Bites Dog is a Belgian, high-concept satire of media violence which follows the lethal exploits of Benoit, an affable, and very talkative, serial killer. He kills for money, and he kills for pleasure, and he talks all the while about philosophy and the proper technique for weighing a corpse down underwater. He is followed through his slaughter-fest by the filmmakers, Rémy and André, and the line between reporter and subject becomes blurred pretty quickly. The filmmakers become more and more involved in Benoit's actions, starting with the relatively innocent act of holding a flashlight for him. Eventually, when their funding runs out, Benoit hires them to continue making the film, and soon ...

Blair Satterfield (Houston) and Marc Swackhamer (Minneapolis) began their collaboration as architects in Houston, Texas, in 1998. HouMinn (pronounced human) Practice, their present-day moniker, is both an acronym of their current geographical locations and a homophone to describe their research-based practice, which seeks collaboration with experts outside architecture in order to create work that is more rigorous and resonates with a wide audience. Their innovative wall-based systems, such as OSWall, an open source platform; Cloak Wall; and Drape Wall are evolving explorations of this primary architectural element, while projects such as Pore House, Draft House, and Feedback House have tackled issues of sustainability and affordability. These research projects have been featured in numerous publications, including Dwell and Fast Company, and have garnered prestigious honors such the 2008 R&D Award from Architect magazine and the Best in Environments award from ID Magazine.

Osho, a contemporary mystic has spoken on virtually every aspect of human consciousness. In these talks, the human mind is put under the microscope as never before, analyzed down to the smallest wrinkle. In this talk Osho responds to a question: WHY IS COMMUNICATION SO DIFFICULT, PARTICULARLY BETWEEN LOVERS? .... communication as such is difficult. Of course it is more difficult between lovers. But first you have to understand the general difficulty of communication. Each mind has been conditioned by different parents, different teachers, different priests, different politicians. It is a different world in itself. And when two minds try to communicate, as far as the ordinary mundane things are concerned, there is no difficulty. But the moment they start moving beyond things into the world of concepts, communication starts becoming more and more difficult. ....communication is possible with equals, and communication is possible beyond the mind. You will find here with my people, slowly, slowly a communication is developing. As their consciousness goes higher, they will start understanding many things which they were not able to understand before. Join the OSHO Talks Video Translation Project: www.oshotalks.info

Google Tech Talk January 21, 2010 ABSTRACT Presented by Linda Nathan. Boston Arts Academy comprises an ethnically and socioeconomically diverse student body, yet 95 percent of its graduates are accepted to college. This remarkable success rate, says Principal Linda Nathan, is in large part due to asking the right questions and being open to seeking answers collaboratively with faculty, parents, and the students themselves. In her new book, The Hardest Questions Aren't on the Test: Lessons from an Innovative Urban School, Nathan gives insights into the process of grappling with these questions, attempting to implement solutions, and evaluating the outcomes. Stories that are inspirational as well as heartbreaking reveal the missteps and failures—as well as the successes. Nathan doesnt claim to have all the answers, but seeks to share the philosophies and practices that have worked for the BAA. Principals, educators, and parents will find many new ideas to bring to their own schools. Chapters focus on questions all schools can consider, such as: · How and why does a school develop a shared vision of what it stands for? · What makes a great teacher, and how can a principal help good teachers improve? · Why must schools talk openly about race and achievement, and what happens when they do? www.amazon.com Speaker Info: Linda Nathan Linda was instrumental in starting Boston's first performing-arts middle school, and was a driving force behind the creation of Fenway High School ...
