"From Freak To Clique?", the title of Mat Fraser's new show, cheekily charts the history of disability portrayal on stage, screen, and ridiculous real life, including his own career. Using his trademark blend of un-PC comedy, poignant words and songs, poetry and characters, this will challenge and entertain in equal measures. From Tom Thumb to Top Gun, from freak shows to clique ho's, from Sandy (Crossroads) to Andy (Little Britain), it covers all the major players in the classic one man show format. nnNot for the easily offended, or under 16s.nnThis performance was part of The Sackler Conference for Arts Education - From the Margins to the Core? - An international conference exploring the shifting roles and increasing significance of diversity and equality in contemporary museum and heritage policy and practice held at The Sackler Centre, V&A, 24-26 March 2010.nnTitle: Mat Fraser….nn[Mat Fraser’s voice over title sequence]nn“….stars in tonight’s very special show “From Freak to Clique”. That’s right a very special disability show (animal dinosaur sound). For all people to celebrate their differences, deformities and deafness, and their myopias, melanomas and mutations.”nnTitle: From Freak to CliquennClips from Mat Fraser’s performance on stagenn“I should tell you about my arms really. A lot of people don’t know why I look like this. People under 30 don’t know. In the early 60’s my mother along with thousands of other women all over Canada and Europe (most of all) was pregnant and she had morning sickness as many women do in the first trimester of her pregnancy. The local doctor, she was actually onto it in Leicester, uncannily Richard as it goes (reference to audience member Richard Sandell, University of Leicester) as it goes although I’m not blaming you…unless of course you’re father was doctor in the early 60’s.”nn[Audience laugh]nn“He had this new wonder drug which was the first ever non barbiturate pain killer that the profit hungry drug company were aggressively asserting for all the doctors to prescribe and he did provide her famously thalidomide which she took three times in one week. And here I am with short arms and no thumbs. That miracle of human evolution the opposable digit, that sets apart the humans from the animals such as squirrels and mutants such as I.”nnClip of Mat Fraser doing a T-Rex impression and sound effectnn[Audience laugh]nnSong lyrics:nn“I’ve got respect for anyone with Paraplegia, Tourette Syndrome or Parkinson’s disease, a state of shock coma or schizophrenia, or any one of those other disabilities. No I will not criticize if you’ve non functioning eye’s, I’ll just celebrate your refusal to see. It would be boring if we were all the same, because we’re all just a little bit different and you know I think that’s something that we should celebrate. So if you’ve got two heads or need hoisting into bed, I’ll just celebrate your disability. A little bit wobbly because of your cerebral palsy, I’ll just celebrate your disability … yeeeee hah!”nn[Audience applaud]nn“I used to feel so sorry for the disabled kid who’d joined the fire service for the day on ‘Jim’ll Fix It’ and they had the head of the fire team there didn’t they:nn(in a Jimmy Savile accent) “So now then, now then, do you think this little man, this brave little solider, would make a good fireman?” nn“Not really Jim he’s a (bleep sound effect) quadriplegic!”nnMat Fraser does a strip tease with fake arms on set to upbeat musicnn“Some impairments are ok in some genres of media. In music it’s blind isn’t it? Blind ‘Oh bleep that’s cool isn’t it?!’ Stevie Wonder, Jeff Healy, Blind Lemon Shandy, my mate Dave again, he’s blind; I just think that’s really weird. Like if a member of the pussy cat dolls had cerebra palsy that would be pretty radical wouldn’t it? “Don’t you think your girlfriend was spice like me urrrgh (does a facial impression)” It’s not gonna happen is it? But it should, it should happen.”nnSong lyrics:nn“Disabled performers years ago had just one outlet, the freak show. We’ve come so far after since beginning so low the audience of yesterday just didn’t know. In these post modern times we’re all in the know you, celebrate the liberals in guise to this show, my emancipated stage craft makes you glow to not a disabled performance but a disabled pro. You’d accept us in a classic play and Mis Saigon with Downs could be theatrical bliss. Am I ahead of myself or are you ready for this? Please don’t laugh when I use my arms or I’ll think you’re taking the piss.”nn[Audience applaud] Less

A project a year in the making, ‘Requiem of Ice’ reveals the dramatic melting and collapsing of the cave system that has been occurring since its discovery around a decade ago. nnThe cave systems have been mapped and surveyed since 2011 by Brent McGregor and Eddy Cartaya of the Oregon High Desert Grotto and in that time they have discovered more than a mile of caves and passages beneath the Sandy Glacier. McGregor and Cartaya’s exploration of the cave system was featured in a 2013 multimedia presentation produced by Oregon Public Broadcasting. http://www.opb.org/glaciercaves/nnFind out more about McGregor and Cartaya's ongoing exploration of glacier caves. https://www.facebook.com/glaciercaveexplorersnnSince October, 2013, John Waller and Ben Canales of Uncage the Soul Productions have made five trips to the Sandy Glacier Caves on Mt Hood, the largest glacier cave system in the lower 48 states, documenting the extraordinary deterioration and collapse of these stunningly beautiful caves. The resulting short film takes the viewer on a visual odyssey of the cave system, showing the massive scale, as well as the intimate details. Waller and Canales scripted an artistic narrative interpretation of the final thoughts of the glacier cave to accompany the time-lapse, high speed, and aerial footage that was produced. nnIt is one of the most challenging environments to film in. Not only does its remote location mean hauling hundreds of pounds of equipment high up on the slopes of Mt Hood, but once inside the cave, the wet, cold, dark, and dirty conditions create a myriad of complications. There was a staggering amount of structural collapse and rockfall that was observed and managing risk while filming was a top priority.nnMusic: 'Death of a Quiet One' by Lowercase Noises licensed through http://www.themusicbed.comnnRequiem of Ice narrated by Tish Iceton http://tishiceton.comnnMy end is near.nTime will shape my legacy.nn[Requiem of Ice]nnFor ages this sentinel mountain has shadowed me.nTogether, we have shaped the land to our design.n nI speak the language of water and airnMy breath twists and curls across the mountain summit.nI dream into ponds of fognthat splash and flow across the hillsides.nI flush with color at the promise of a new day.nBut I feel the fragile balance shifting… nnThe whispering trickle of summer teardropsnbecomes a roar of my departing spirit.nWater drips and seeps into open veinsnthrough scalloped tunnels of time.nI am tortured with roots to a mountain that can no longer sustain me.nI feel weak. nnI look inward.nThe artists of wind, water and lightneach carve in me their signature.nMy thirst is not for lack of water,nAnd winter’s crystals left at my feet are not enoughnI retreat deeper into the shadow of the mountainnWhat will become of me?nnI look skyward.nThe sun arcs across a blue expansenand peers into me from the edge of earthnI am illuminated from within by an extraordinary light.nI have no shelter from its relentless heatnIt is the light that accents my beauty.nIt is the light that will consume me.nnI welcome the cold blanket of darkness.nThe canvas of stars cools my scalded facade.nThrough ceiling eyes I converse with the sweeping heavens.nBut the night has begun to flicker with a new yellow flame,nCold nights now warm and the voice of stars fade.nI feel alone.nWhat will become of me?nnMy strength ebbs as the fragile gift of life departs.nWith cautious welcome,nI invite the intrepid seeker to share my story.nI remind you of the raw code of Nature. nDespite my open door, I cannot promise your safety nLeave no words unsaid about the elation of a life well lived.nTake with you the memory of our visitnand smile when you think of me.

They’re back! An all-new posse of Potty-Mouth Princesses drop F-bombs for feminism to raise awareness, funds and a little bit of hell about the fact that 1 out of 4 women will be a victim of violence against women. Get the “Break the Silence on Domestic Violence” charity tank top and join the campaign at http://FCKH8.comnnWatch moms and girls talk about making the video and why they spoke out for the cause: https://vimeo.com/112710176 nnLos Angeles, CA– November 24, 2014 – Hot on the heels of the massive viral success of the first anti-sexism “Potty-Mouth Princesses” video and facing a future where 1 out of 4 women are victims of domestic violence, little girls between 6 and 12 years-old dressed as pretty pink princesses drop F-bombs to draw attention to society’s continued sexism and lack of action. Courting controversy, the young girls don graphically realistic injury make-up that has them appearing bruised, bandaged and with black-eyes. In the clip the adorable and articulate little girls ask the question, “What’s more offensive, a little girl saying f*ck, or the f*cked up and sexist way society barely lifts a finger when men raise their fists?” nnThis second-to-be-released of 3 filmed anti-sexism videos, follows on the heels of the first “Potty-Mouth Princesses” clip that was named by mashable.com as the number one viral ad of October, 2014 with over 14 million views on a single Facebook post alone and almost 20 million views across platforms. The video raised over $30,000 for women’s charities through benefit T-shirt sales and was attacked on air by media personalities from Fox News pundits to Sharon Osborne and defended and lauded by TV voices from Whoopi Goldberg to Rachel Ray. The clip’s discussion-starting impact was declared by Entertainment Tonight as “one of the hottest topics on the planet” and Inside Edition labeled it as “creating a national firestorm.”nnThe new video can bee seen at: http://FCKH8.com/nnHighlighted Quotes from the New Video:n“Here’s a fact more f*cked up than the word f*ck. One out of four women will be a victim of domestic violence.”n“We want a future that we can dream about. Not one we will f*cking scream about. 25% of women will be bullied beaten and bashed and in their own homes, their lives f*cking trashed.”n“So yeah, were making a big f*cking fuss, we don’t want a violent future for any of us.”nnThe girls appear in the video alongside men and women sporting “Not a Wife Beater” Tank Tops with bold purple text declaring “Break the Silence on Domestic Violence.” The tanks are part of advocacy T-shirt company FCKH8.com’s charity fundraising effort that is pledging 100% of the profit from the $15 tanks (roughly $9) to go to domestic violence charities. Supporters will be able to vote on Facebook for their favorite charities in the coming weeks much as the previous video’s over $30,000 raised was divided up between benefitting anti-sexism groups based on a Facebook vote.nnVideo writer/director Luke Montgomery comments, “We get that some adults are uncomfortable with how these little girls are using a bad word for a good cause and seeing them in this shocking injury make-up. But isn’t the real shock the ugly fact that 1 out of 4 women are bullied, beaten and bashed and that as a society we’ve become desensitized and accepting of violence against women as ‘normal?’” He adds, “These girls don’t need their mouths cleaned out with soap. Society needs to clean up it’s act. I’d rather see these girls in abuse make-up speaking out today so when they are older maybe less women will have those injuries in real life. In a culture that abuses women daily with things like paying them less than men for the exact same work, is it any surprise that so many men think they can abuse women too?”nnLacey O’Connell, mother of a 7-year old featured in the video stated, “We did this video to help break the silence on domestic violence. In our household swearing is absolutely unacceptable but if it takes princesses saying the F-word to raise awareness we will call it a success.” She added, “I was very personal for us. I was one of those 1 in 4 women who are victims of domestic violence. Equality is still an issue and at the root of this is the problem that men and women are not treated equally.” Her young daughter Kennedy who appears in the video chimed in, “I don’t normally say the F-word in life because my mom doesn’t let me but I want people to learn from this video that it’s not fair for women to get punched in the face. You can’t do that to women. It’s just not right to do.” Less

Raising two dipteran children was an interesting experience. It was embarrassing on a few occasions, when both of my arms started bleeding profusely in public; painful at times, to the point of waking me up in the middle of the night; and inconvenient during the last stages of the flies’ development, when I had to tape plastic containers to my arms to make sure that I will not lose the emerging larvae. But other than those minor discomforts it was really not a big deal. Perhaps my opinion would have been different had the bot flies decided to develop in my eyelids, but I actually grew to like my little guests, and watched their growth with the same mix of pleasure and apprehension as when I watch the development of any other interesting organism under my care. nnHaving two bot fly larvae embedded in my skin have also made me ponder once again the perplexing element of the human psyche that makes us abhor parasites but revere predators. Why is it that an animal that is actively trying to kill us, such as a lion, gets more respect than one that is only trying to nibble on us a little, without causing much harm? I strongly suspect that it has to do with our genetically encoded sense of “fairness” – we perceive parasites as sneaky and underhanded, whereas predators attack us head-on and thus expose themselves to our retaliation. They are brave, or so we think. This, of course, is a very naive and anthropomorphic interpretation of nature. A lion is no “braver” than a bot fly, who has to skillfully hunt mosquitos to assure the dispersal of her eggs and risk more dangers than a lion, a top predator with no natural enemies. Most importantly, to a bot fly we, humans, are a renewable resource – it is in the bot fly’s best interest that we live a very long life and thus can be “reused” – hence the minimum amount of suffering that this species causes. To a lion we are nothing more than a one-time meal. But we should not judge either species for their actions – there is no “good” or “bad” in nature – nature is amoral. nnI am saying this to prepare you for a short video that I made about my experience of raising a bot fly. I don’t want you to think that it is “creepy” or “weird”. It is simply a documentation of an interesting organism, who happens to develop in the skin of large mammals. But please be forewarned that this video includes a few sequences that some viewers may find disturbing. If you don’t want to have nightmares about things living inside you (which they already do, by the way), please don’t watch it. But if you are prepared to be open-minded and appreciate God’s wonderful creations in all their amazing glory, enjoy the show!nnVisit http://thesmallermajority.com to learn more. Less

COMING TO THEATERS JANUARY 16TH - http://www.cineliciouspics.com/gangs-of-wasseypurnnPresented by Adi Shankar, producer of A WALK AMONG THE TOMBSTONES, DREDD, LONE SURVIVOR, KILLING THEM SOFTLY and THE GREY.nnFrom Guneet Monga, the producer of THE LUNCHBOX, the most successful foreign-language movie of 2014 to date in the U.S., GANGS OF WASSEYPUR is director/writer/producer Anurag Kashyap’s ambitious and extraordinary blood-and-bullets fueled crime saga that charts seventy years in the lives – and spectacular deaths – of two mafia-like families fighting for control of the coal-mining town of Wasseypur, India. Inspired by the real-life exploits of local gangs and beginning with the bandit-like career of Shahid Khan (Jaideep Ahlawat) in the 1940s, the film follows the ruthless rise of his son Sardar (a brilliant Manoj Bajpayee) and his offspring, the surreally-named Danish, Perpendicular and Definitive Khans and their numerous wives and girlfriends.nnGANGS OF WASSEYPUR mirrors the tumultuous and explosive growth of modern India with ferocious cinematic intensity. As with Al Pacino’s Michael Corleone in THE GODFATHER, it’s the least likely of Sardar’s children – the perpetually stoned Faizal (Nawazuddin Siddiqui) – who rises to the top ranks of the Khan crime family, vowing brutal revenge on their longtime nemesis, the wily and seemingly unstoppable Ramadhir Singh (Tigmanshu Dhulia). Composer Sneha Khanwalkar’s stunning soundtrack ranks with legends like R.D. Burman, but don’t expect Bollywood-style dance numbers: this is a movie that up-ends every expectation of what great Indian cinema should look (and sound) like.nnAnurag Kashyap is known for his prolific and award-winning career in cinema, both as a director, screenwriter and as a producer. Among his noted directing credits are terrorist thriller BLACK FRIDAY, cult classic DEV D, and UGLY, which screened at Director’s Fortnight at Cannes 2013 where he also received the Knight of the Order of Arts and Letters. His highly anticipated neo noir drama BOMBAY VELVET is set for worldwide release in 2015 via 20th Century Fox. Widely regarded as the driving force of India’s new wave of filmmakers, Anurag also recently produced Michael Winterbottom’s TRISHNA and Ritesh Batra’s THE LUNCHBOX. Less

The passage of time.nAnd when we found ''Teufelsberg" in Berlin, one of the last traces of the Cold War espionage, we started to work on one of its four domes, built of small polygonal triangles. The challenge was difficult, being able to build and interact with the base of a structure and its already established form.nnTeufelsberg was a complex in ruins seated on a mountain filled with ruins, that moved there with the intention of covering forever the remains of another building, which for its strength in construction could not become... ruins.nBut the accumulation of debris was growing at such a pace, that the flat plot gradually rose to become the highest mountain in BerlinnSince 1957 the hill was also used by the American and British secret services. The NSA, National Security Agency built a listening station on top of this mountain, associated to the global ECHELON spy network, and it became one of the largest bases of electronic surveillance during the time of the Cold War. While the German and European Division lasted, the U.S. Army maintained at Teufelsberg electronic surveillance headquarters.nToday the abandoned spy base shows the remains of buildings and radar domes.nFrom there, the American services could decrypt the broadcasts from the former GDR, and even Poland. Watching the military movements of the Warsaw Pact in eastern Germany and Europe.nAfter the fall of the wall, it was used as a monitoring station of civil aviation for another two years, after which the facilities were finally abandoned in 1991.nnnnnVersion español_nnSiempre estamos buscando espacios abandonados para intervenir , con historia,esencia.

"Conspiracy of Silence" is a powerful, disturbing documentary revealing a nationwide child abuse and pedophilia ring that leads to the highest levels of government. Featuring intrepid investigator John DeCamp, a highly decorated Vietnam war veteran and 16-year Nebraska state senator, "Conspiracy of Silence" reveals how rogue elements at all levels of government have been involved in systematic child abuse and pedophilia to feed the base desires of key politicians.nnBased on DeCamp's riveting book, The Franklin Cover-up, "Conspiracy of Silence" begins with the shut-down of Nebraska's Franklin Community Federal Credit Union after a raid by federal agencies in November 1988 revealed that $40 million was missing. When the Nebraska legislature launched a probe into the affair, what initially looked like a financial swindle soon exploded into a startling tale of drugs, money laundering, and a nationwide child abuse ring. Nineteen months later, the legislative committee's chief investigator died suddenly and violently, like more than a dozen other people linked to the Franklin case.nnSo why have you never heard of the Franklin cover-up? Originally scheduled to air in May of 1994 on the Discovery Channel, "Conspiracy of Silence" was yanked at the last minute due to formidable pressure applied by top politicians. Some very powerful people did not want you to watch this documentary. nnYou may find yourself becoming angry or upset while watching "Conspiracy of Silence." Many people do. However, consider that each of us has at times in our life acted out of selfish motives when it comes to sexuality and ended up hurting others in one way or another. Let us take this information not only as a call to stop this kind of abuse at the nationwide level, but also as a call to examine our own sexual relationships and make a commitment to deep honesty and integrity in our own lives around this most sensitive issue. Thanks for caring and may we all work together to build a brighter future for ourselves and for our world.nnA copy of this videotape was furnished anonymously to former Nebraska state senator and attorney John De Camp who made it available to retired FBI Agent Ted L. Gunderson. While the video quality is not top grade, this tape is a blockbuster in what is revealed by the participants involved.nnNOTE; This film had to be reassembled from remaining VHS fragments after an all-out effort was made to block the films release and destroy all extant copies. Every effort has been made to restore it to the original and complete "meant to be broadcast" version. Less

‘Talking Merkel And Putin Must Come Together - Ich Sage Merkel Und Putin Müssen Zusammenkommen’ is Michel Montecrossa's New-Topical-Song-Movement Audio Single, DVD and Download, released by Mira Sound Germany, written the day before the Merkel-Putin Meeting 2015 in Minsk which wanted to bring the Ukraine crisis to an end.nSurrounded by extreme war business temptations and misleading propaganda stunts from every side the real solution for the Ukraine is mostly blurred, but in his bilingual New-Topical-Song ‘Talking Merkel And Putin Must Come Together - Ich Sage Merkel Und Putin Müssen Zusammenkommen’ Michel Montecrossa in two languages (English and German) is lifting the veil and is making clear that the solution for the Ukraine disaster is the coming together of EU and Russia for building the Free Eurasian Union. This Union would take away the explosive tension from the Ukraine which is tearing the people of Ukraine apart. As a member of the Eurasian Union Ukraine would freely participate in an open Eurasian peace economy and culture from the Atlantik to the Pacific Ocean with no tensions between EU and Russia projected on Ukraine and therefore with no dangers of civil war or the rise of a most destructive series of continental conflicts eventually leading to a nuclear World War. nnnMichel Montecrossa says about ‘Talking Merkel And Putin Must Come Together - Ich Sage Merkel Und Putin Müssen Zusammenkommen’:n“I wrote my New-Topical-Song ‘Talking Merkel And Putin Must Come Together - Ich Sage Merkel Und Putin Müssen Zusammenkommen’ a day before the Merkel-Putin Meeting 2015 in Minsk. It was a time when big war business was hot on the Ukraine and every propaganda from all sides was talking nuts. So I wrote my song to put things right and make clear that what is needed is the building of the Free Eurasian Union from the Atlantic to the Pacific Oceans. That’s what Putin and Merkel must do. The Free Eurasian Union is the solution for the Ukraine problem because it relieves the Ukraine from its internal tensions and clears the way for peace growth and prosperity. It is the effective vision for the long view and it will make everyone happy including not only Ukraine and Russia, but also EU and USA.“nnMore songs and movies: www.MichelMontecrossa.comnnSong LyricsnTalking Merkel And Putin Must Come Together - nIch Sage, Merkel Und Putin Müssen ZusammenkommennnHello, all ye people of EU and Russia!nYou know it already but I say it again:n“Merkel and Putin must come togethernfor the United EU and Russia big Eurasia beginning.“nnHallo, ihr alle von der EU und Russland!nIhr wisst es ja, aber ich sag es noch einmal:n“Merkel und Putin müssen zusammenkommen,ndamit die EU und Russland gemeinsam das große Eurasien beginnen.“nnWe are the historic hour, you know,nwhen key players can decide the future,nthe future of Eurasian peace and unfolding,nthe future, I say, of the life of you and me.nnWir sind die historische Stunde, ihr wisst es,nwo Top-Macher die Zukunft entscheiden können,ndie Zukunft des Friedens und Werdens von Eurasien,ndie Zukunft, sag ich, des Lebens von dir und mir.nnUkraine is the question and Eurasia the answer.nThe Ukraine is torn apart between EU and Russianinstead of living in peace in a United Eurasia.nSave the Ukraine through Eurasia: that’s what Putin and Merkel must do.nnUkraine ist die Frage und Eurasien die Antwort.nDie Ukraine zerbricht zwischen der EU und Russland,nstatt in Frieden zu leben in einem geeinten Eurasien.nRettet die Ukraine durch Eurasien: das müssen Putin und Merkel tun.nnWithout Eurasian Union war, bankruptcy and poverty will come.nWith Eurasian Union peace, growth and prosperity will come.nWithout Eurasian Union no future is there for the young.nWith Eurasian Union all the problems can be solved.nnOhne Eurasische Einheit werden Krieg, Bankrott und Armut kommen.nMit Eurasischer Einheit werden Frieden, Wachstum und Wohlstand kommen.nOhne Eurasische Einheit hat die Jugend keine Zukunft.nMit Eurasischer Einheit können alle Probleme verschwinden.nnUkraine disaster, migration, ISIS and threat of nuclear war:nthey all can be ended through free Eurasian Union.nThat’s why I say: “Merkel and Putin must come togethernfor the United EU and Russia big Eurasia beginning.“nnUkraine Desaster, Flüchtlinge, ISIS, Atomkrieg Bedrohungnkönnen enden durch die freie Eurasische Union.nMein Wort lautet: “Merkel und Putin müssen zusammenkommen,ndamit die EU und Russland gemeinsam das große Eurasien beginnen.“nnMusic & Lyrics: Michel Montecrossa © Mira Sound Germany Less

Or simply about missing the obvious or the simplest solution in any situation or problem.nnThe lyrics are set in France with references to art and the influential poets Rimbaud and Baudelaire (and the latter’s poems); with symbolism and imagery to sum up the joie-de-vivre, sang froid and even the occasional gaucheness found there.nnThis video shows the variety and colourfulness of French life .. from the fast cars, clubs and ridiculous wealth of the Côte d’Azur, counter posed with the grittiness and melting-pot of provincial northern-mid France, with its wide range of socio-political causes; images of the wonderful French culture and sublime art; the heady romance of fashionable Paris; etc. I have added in some topical themes which arouse much passion too.nnFrom hedonism and existentialism, to phenomenology and abstract structuralism … the French seem to combine all these facets intriguingly.. and well. nnDo turn your volume and bass up for this one, it rocks!nnI’ve copied below the two poems that are named in the lyrics, for interest only:nnTHE DEATH OF LOVERS ('LA MORT DES AMANTS' TRANSLATED)nnWe shall have beds full of subtle perfumes, nDivans as deep as graves, and on the shelves nWill be strange flowers that blossomed for us nUnder more beautiful heavens.nnLavishing our final amorous hoursnthere, our flaming hearts shall merge and loomnin the twin mirrors of these souls of oursn— torches vast which side by side consume.nnThen some evening, rose and mystic blue,ncharged with the sobbing woe of our adieu,nLove shall links us in one lightning-spark;nnLater, shall the faithful angel flingnall the portals wide, illuminingnthe flameless torches and the mirrors dark.nn- Charles BaudelairennTHE PUNISHMENT OF PRIDE (CHÂTIMENT DE L'ORGUEIL TRANSLATED)nnWhen first Theology in her young prime nFlourished with vigour, in that wondrous time, nOf an illustrious Doctor it was said nThat, having forced indifferent hearts to shed nTears of emotion, moved to depths profound: nAnd having to celestial glory found nMarvellous paths, to his own self unknown, nWhere only purest souls had fared alone — nLike a man raised too high, as in a panic, nCrazed with a vertigo of pride satanic, nHe cried "Poor Christ, I've raised you to renown!nnBut had I wished to bring you crashing down nProbing your flaws, your shame would match your pride nAnd you'd be but a foetus to deride!"nImmediately he felt his wits escape, nThat flash of sunlight veiled itself in crepe. nnAll chaos through his intellect was rolled, nA temple once, containing hoards of gold, nBy opulence and order well controlled, nAnd topped with ceilings splendid to behold. nSilence and night installed their reign in him. nnIt seemed he was a cellar dank and dim, nTo which no living man could find the key; nAnd from that day a very beast was he. nAnd while he wandered senseless on his way, nNot knowing spring from summer, night from day, nFoul, dirty, useless, and with no hereafter, nHe served the children as a butt for laughter.nn- Charles Baudelairenn------------------nNB: This video was produced and presented here simply for entertainment sake; no offence is intended to anyone. © WBene 9/13 xn________________nnnRider 1:nThis is a video based on my interpretation of this wonderful song's lyrics (and may not be Don's himself, please note) - no political agenda is implied beyond associations with humanitarian and democratic concerns generally.nnRider 2: nNo rights to this song or video excerpts owned (where applicable), this was put together purely for entertainment and not for making any money whatsoever, no copyright infringement intended of song or images used (various sources).

I get it. I’m caught in it. My God. I be living with nhot rods as my chariot. Top 5 in hilarious nmoments come from reckless abandon with bad decisions.nWhy would I just give it up to lay under submission? noh no [oh no] and they know [they know]nthat I’m a fraud, they don’t see a hero.nand I’m paying a price to save my egonand I’m fighting not to get it repo’dnTalking to a bunch of pigeons, got a simple message nNotes written to myself -- a hand-delivered-presentnPlease remember: do the dishes, quit your half-stepping, nafter bites of humble pie, brother count your blessingsnSee these demons running ‘round they be telling you to lingernThey be lumberjacking your affections leaving splinters nTrees make noise when they fall in the wintern“Timber, timber” all the stress will make you thinner. nI don’t think they get it, I don’t they really get it nIf you put it near their nose, yo will they really smell it? nTryna stay on course like this narrow road in Paris ngot me going, “oh Lord please don’t let me perish” n“buttt” Gotta thrive, gotta thrive.nDo you got a 5? I’m needing help to surviven“uhhh” Gotta hide, gotta hide. nRunning out of lies. I need to avoid the eyes. n“ugh” once again lying straight to my facenthe man in the mirror is the phony that I facengot my index yelling “fake!” at the sight of my reflectionnI just wanna grow in grace and embrace this imperfection. [Han Solo]nn(Verse)nWhile you’re calling this a pipe dream, I’m living out reality, got enemies that live beyond this earth that try to battle me/ this isn’t for some salary, it’s deeper than that, it goes way beyond myself and this is deeper than rap/ every single day I’m finding myself, fighting a demon, maybe I’m just fighting myself, make reason to believe in/ that there isn’t any hope for me, a cause that is lost, I just want my life in order, over the battles I’ve fought/ every morning when I wake up, I would pray in order to take up, temptations that always shake up, all the world that I know/ but just because I have been shook don’t mean I’m losing control, or maybe I am, that’s why I feel I’m stuck in this hole/ but I’m fighting, yes I’m persevering all that I’m fearing, and I know my God’s endearing for my prayers that he’s hearing/ but distractions come unexpectedly, it tries interfering, and never stops to get the best of me when it makes an appearance/ Lord, when is this madness gonna end, I tried to open up about it to my family and friends/ but no one gets me, they upset me, cause they only pretend, to understand the man I am making the same mistakes again/ my God, I guess it’s time for me to let it go, calling for emergency, please pick up the telephone/ the only one to heal me is the one this song is made for, the cost of all my sins was out of my budget but they were paid for, Lord/ Another day, another mercy, your grace was settling in during the storm when it was blurry/ you’re the only one that chose to listen when no one has heard me, you’re the only one protecting me when the world has called me dirty/ even if I never understand the way that you’re working, I know you’re working deep inside of me, I know that for certain/ cause I’m growing, making progress, and I’m showing, that the process of sanctification is a hot mess that I’m fighting lot less/ Verse Less
