Autopsie de l'alien de Roswell
Area 51Military top secret Roswell Autopsy
La fameuse autopsie de l'extra terrestre qui a tant passionné les conspirationistes. Bien sur le document est faux et un groupe de type a avoué l'avoir réalisé avec les moyens d'un autre film lors de son tournage. Marrant et court, a voir pour le principe.

Reportage de la BBC - Ventes d'enfants en Bulgarie
Laying bait for baby smugglers
The aim of the report was to expose Bulgaria's criminal trade in babies in all its cynicism.

Apart from Harry, the BBC team met relatives of the children. A grandfather turned up with a photograph, trying to sell his "jewel of a granddaughter" without his daughter's knowledge.
How did it feel to operate in an environment of such moral squalor?
"You have to control your emotions because it is quite a tense situation," says Craig.
"You have to put them aside and worry about them when you've finished the task in hand.
"I'm a parent myself and I was just happy when it was over."

9/11 revisited
9/11 revisited v.2
Un reportage assez interessant sur le 11 septembre et la fameuse théories des bombes et de la démolition du WTC. Toujours a prendre avec des pincettes mais l'argumentaire est plus convaincant, mené par des intervenants spécialistes, scientifiques et autre. Tout ce qui concerne le Batiment 7 est, a mon sens, le plus interessant et le plus troublant, bien que l'ensemble du reportage pose des questions pertinentes. En tout cas, je le recommende plus que 9/11 mysteries (precedemment posté) qui est plus orienté Illuminatis.

Deux artistes: Trevor Brown et Edward Gorey
Trevor Brown
Edward Gorey sur Wikipedia
Deux artistes affiliés au monde de l'enfance mais avec deux attitudes très différentes mais très originales. Le premier peint surtout des enfants tandis que l'autre semble surtout avoir illustré des livres pour enfant. Ce qui les rejoint est leur attitude asymétrique par rapport a ce qu'il représente.

Documentaire sur le shoegaze en préparation
Fallen not broken
"With nearly two years of filming under his belt, filmmaker Eric Green of L.A.-based Hypnagogia Films is nearing completion of his documentary chronicling the 1985-91 shoegaze movement of Great Britain. Titled Beautiful Noise, it’s about the influence of the Cocteau Twins, Jesus & Mary Chain and My Bloody Valentine and the subsequent rise of outfits such as Ride, Curve, Slowdive, Lush, Chapterhouse, Swervedriver, Pale Saints and Boo Radleys, as well as more ambient-inclined and experimental artists like Flying Saucer Attack, AR Kane and Seefeel."

Autechre - Recommendation
Hamilton (Genghis Tron) parle de Autechre
Yeah, Squarepusher is one-of-a-fucking-kind, that's for sure. He is his own entity and category, like Autechre or Boards...there's no one like him. Or actually, lots of people try to sound like him now, but no one really can.
Hororo and Zesty, where to start with Autechre all depends on what you're into. Confeld is definitely one of the most confrontational/difficult recordings they ever made, so I definitely would recommend trying other albums. Here are some of my personal favorites, as well as recommended tracks from each album. But they have so many other albums which are amazing too, so don't let me suggestions limit your explorations...
Inculabula (1993) -- Their debut album...very "classic" early 90's sounding in the synth sounds and the techno song structutres. Definitely their simplest and most melodic/accessible album, but still very creepy and cold. As they went on in their career, they chose to be much more restrained in how melodic their albums were, but this one puts their ability to write amazing melodies at the forefront. Easy to get into. Recommended tracks: "Eggshell" and "Bike"
LP5 (1998) -- This was the album which really god me into Autechre. It's a good starting point beacuse it's mid-way through their career, so they've really hit their stride at this point in terms of creativity + weirdness...but it's not AS weird and abrasive as the stuff they'd start doing a few years later. Recommended tracks: "Acroyear2" and "Rae".
EP7 (1999) -- It's an "EP" but it has 11 songs and is an hour long...anyways, this might be my favorite Autechre release. Similar in style to LP5, perhaps a bit weirder and more alien. Recommended tracks: "Rpeg" and "Dropp"
Untilted (2005) -- Throughout the 2000's, Autechre released several really abrasive and difficult albums...they're awesome, particularly Draft 7.30 and the Ganz Graf EP, but they were incredibly fucked up and pretty difficult to digest regularly. Untilted (make sure you spell it right) is plenty strange, but I think it represents a new stage for Autechre. The drums are much more repetitive and hard-hitting, spiraling around in looping patterns while gradually shifting with each repitition. And they are even some killer melodies as well. Recommended tracks: "Lcc" and "Ipacial Section"

Un peu de Bukowsky
CB
The history of a tough motherfucker
he came to the door one night wet thin beaten and
terrorized
a white cross-eyed tailless cat
I took him in and fed him and he stayed
grew to trust me until a friend drove up the driveway
and ran him over
I took what was left to a vet who said, 'not much
chance...give him these pills...his backbone
is crushed, but is was crushed before and somehow
mended, if he lives he'll never walk, look at
these x-rays, he's been shot, look here, the pellets
are still there...also, he once had a tail, somebody
cut it off...'
I took the cat back, it was a hot summer, one of the
hottest in decades, I put him on the bathroom
floor, gave him water and pills, he wouldn't eat, he
wouldn't touch the water, I dipped my finger into it
and wet his mouth and I talked to him, I didn't go any-
where, I put in a lot of bathroom time and talked to
him and gently touched him and he looked back at
me with those pale blue crossed eyes and as the days went
by he made his first move
dragging himself forward by his front legs
(the rear ones wouldn't work)
he made it to the litter box
crawled over and in,
it was like the trumpet of possible victory
blowing in that bathroom and into the city, I
related to that cat-I'd had it bad, not that
bad but bad enough
one morning he got up, stood up, fell back down and
just looked at me.
'you can make it, ' I said to him.
he kept trying, getting up falling down, finally
he walked a few steps, he was like a drunk, the
rear legs just didn't want to do it and he fell again, rested,
then got up.
you know the rest: now he's better than ever, cross-eyed
almost toothless, but the grace is back, and that look in
his eyes never left...
and now sometimes I'm interviewed, they want to hear about
life and literature and I get drunk and hold up my cross-eyed,
shot, runover de-tailed cat and I say, 'look, look
at this! '
but they don't understand, they say something like, 'you
say you've been influenced by Celine? '
'no, ' I hold the cat up, 'by what happens, by
things like this, by this, by this! '
I shake the cat, hold him up in
the smoky and drunken light, he's relaxed he knows...
it's then that the interviews end
although I am proud sometimes when I see the pictures
later and there I am and there is the cat and we are photo-
graphed together.
he too knows it's bullshit but that somehow it all helps.

Appel à la prière pour tout les chrétiens le 7 Juillet 2007
Prayon777
Christians please don't fight other Christians over belief issues when non-belief is rampant in young people and neglect for righteousness has become the norm.
[...]
Friends this is bigger then big. Our Father has surprises.
Father gave our country to be the light of the nations. Taking Jesus Christ out of anything only brings hell. Just look at the Muslim world or deep superstitious parts of Africa and you can see that. Our Country no longer has been using prayer but force. When we bring Christ into our thinking or our families, or nation's thinking then, blessings have to follow. On 777 all who will pray are bringing Christ into the focus and mind of the world. Evil will retreat somewhat and righteousness will be fed and grow.
Please devote this day to the Father and his son. Let’s give our Heavenly Father a day he will cherish. A day where his chosen children who really love him, or those who need help kneel down and thank him and plead for his grace and mercy on our failed and failing world. The ManChild Team feels that there will be more time before the Visible return of Christ. This is for the sake of spreading the Gospel and turning the wicked and misguided from sin. 777 will most likely be a day of warm happy feelings; spiritual excitement and we pray some healings. Of course we'll take a miracle, but accept what happens as the Fathers Will.
Christians please don't fight other Christians over belief issues when non-belief is rampant in young people and neglect for righteousness has become the norm.

Brother President Bush; please support prayer.

Sing, Dance, clap, or shout to the Lord. Set off your best fireworks on July 7. But just let the air be full of Praises, Gatherings in every place we want or just alone.
Pray on "the Washington Mall" or places that were or are special to your Christian church.
Les connaissances scientifiques déplorables des americains
1 in 5 americans believes the sun revolves around the Earth
"American adults in general do not understand what molecules are (other than that they are really small). Fewer than a third can identify DNA as a key to heredity. Only about 10 percent know what radiation is. One adult American in five thinks the Sun revolves around the Earth, an idea science had abandoned by the 17th century." Said Jon D. Miller, a political scientists who directs the Center for Biomedical Communications at the Northwestern University Medical School in Chicago, he regularly surveys Americans for his clients which include the National Science Foundation on the public’s knowledge and attitudes towards science in general.
