Song starts off with the recitation by Maya Angelou of Why the Caged Bird Sings/ Who sings this song? Morecheeba? Massive Attack? A caged bird sings with a fearful trill, of things unseen yet longed for still , the caged bird sings of freedom… then the music starts. Who is it?
Thank you Arch Bishop of Cantaloup, I love you forever!!!! You completely rock… Thank you thank you thank you

This was recorded by a group Branford Marsalis headed called "Buckshot LeFonque" (the name is supposedly a pseudonym once used by Cannonball Adderley). This song is from the groups self-titled album which came out in 1994.

An old riddle. I need help:
A man and wife are at the movies. There are also many other people watching the movie. While watching the movie, the man kills his wife. Before the movie ends, he removes her body without anyone seeing him do so. How does he accomplish the removal of her body without being detected?

It’s dark? They’re in a different theatre?

its working greate for me

The line worker is subject to drug testing – the political elites and the CEO’s do not

Coperate interests are always addressed by governments – the poor the working class and the middle are left in a line up waitiing for representation

It does not seem to matter which party is in power

1 % of the population has 90 % of the money they are unseen and wield massive powers over governments (plural not singular)
Is this nation and others like it ruled by an unseen class of unelected persons
Or is this nation and others like it ruled by our elected officals
Being Canadian I think I have an advantage over the US citizen
I am used to hearing titles – Sir Wilfred Laurier is on the five dollar bill
Her Excelenency the Governor General of Canada –
All ear marks of the old class system when the elites of our land did not hide
I believe they are still there the American not used to these titles may miss the reality that is or at least was harder to miss

Indeed

Addendum: Canada is just like the USA – - – There are unseen hands keeping the citizens down and subservient to the state . . . Socialism for all, except for the few at the top of the heap . . .

1. Greedy bankers doing risky deals to get their bonus?
2..Greedy real estate people doing risky deals to get their commission?
3. Greedy share speculators who could care less anyway?
4. Government deregulation, hoping the above will act resposibly?

All of the above!

It seems to be so important that our eternal destiny hangs in the balance over whether we have it, or not. For something so important, I would think there would be an extremely good, logical, and sensible reason for this. So, what is it?

His existence depends on it.

He more or less concentrates on the British Empire and the mechanisms of control it has used in the past to maintain the Empire – expand and protect its interests and so forth More importantly he projects the plans into the future — which are both dire and filled with dirty tricks and the force of arms and money etc

Empire should imply a lot of unseen reality — dirty tricks force of arms – anything that controls opinions lives options beliefs etc would be of interest to any sovereign

Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth the 1st employed an Enochian magician as head of her secret service for instance —

I haven’t spent a lot of time on Tarpley

This is likely not the forum to ask such a question —

But here it goes

Is he worth my time ?

Webster Tarpley nut bar or genius researcher

Or should I just shut up and hope I can be of some service to the plan of the Empire ?
I am actually interested in the "truth" whatever that might be –

But I have avoided Tarpley

So any help opinions etc on his work would be appreciated

IN ESSENCE, NOVA CASTENASIA was an artist. She possessed the unique ability to capture an unseen beauty and present it as a captivating love letter to the soul. Her creations whispered intimacies to strangers and implored them to retreat inwardly.
Nature’s intentions were elusive. Nova could never tell–It never answered when she asked if what she was doing was inherent or perverted. The body…a work of art, yet it seemed no one but herself could see the beautiful makings of a wonder in each human. She loved bodies. She made love to bodies. But bodies never loved her back–Nova was not an artist to mankind.
She was a girl.

“There’s something terribly strange about the sky, Era,” she murmured absently. “It’s so infinite and so absolute.”
“Why do you talk like that?” he asked irritably.
“Like what?”
“Like I get what’s going on in your head. I’m not dense, Nova, but I don’t know anyone in the world who gets you.”
“It’s just that it has no boundaries, but something keeps me from seeing into forever. The stars, the galaxies, the other worlds are all invisible to me.”
“The atmosphere?” he ventured.
“Something. Chemicals, air, some residue of life. Exploded stars. Old undeveloped Polaroids of the universe.” She rested her head against the cold mountain. “Small stuff. Tiny things that grow dense and my weak eyes can’t get past.”
He said nothing, and silence lingered like a secret memory. “Isn’t it strange though? Don’t you ever think about strange things, Era?”
“Don’t call me that.”
“I’ll call you what you are to me.”
“And what the hell is that?”
“An episode of time. You’re a part of my life.”
“Lucky me. I’ve always wanted to be in a temporary relationship,” he said without reservation. “So when should we plan to breakup? I’m free Saturday six months from now.”
“An era is a long time.”
“So is forever.”
“I won’t be here that long. Will you?”
“You’re a piece of work, Nova. You really are.”
The two bodies rested themselves upon the smooth mountainside, soaking up the ancient bronze horizon before them. Sunsets were shorter in the winter, but held a crisp contrast that illuminated a vibrant design of perfection. Nova fell in love with the sky every night.
“It’s just so…so very strange. There’s no limit between here and a false eternity.”
He sighed wearily. “I love you.”

Holy crap! This is the first time I’ve read something on here that bowled me over and knocked my socks off! Perfect prose (italicize perfect!)! I really don’t think you’re trying too hard or too little at all. Like the porridge in Goldilocks, you’ve got it just right!

I don’t know if you’ll make money in this business, but you should. Finish this, and submit it to some writing competitions. I think you could win something, and that alone is going to make a publisher take notice. As for me, I hope I’m fortunate enough to get to read the whole thing someday.

I’d normally criticize if I thought I could lend any of my own feeble insight, but for once and all, there’s no need. Great stuff! Underline Great!

If you’re interested:
I would very much welcome any of your criticism on my start-up, if you wouldn’t mind (http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20091216004939AAaoBhN). If you decide yes, be as honest/candid as you can. I’m definitely in need of some valuable opinions.

Adding an edit as I’m LOL – I see I’m not the only one asking you for an opinion!

There are many opinions about who caused the war in IRaq.

Some say it is George Bush’s war …. to fulfil his ego and to please his father. Some say it is Dick Cheney’s war …. to pad the pockets of his cronies, who’s companies profit from the war. Some say it is Saddam’s fault ….. for ignoring UN sanctions. Some say it is America’s stand againt terrorism and an unseen enemy’s desire to end freedom and Democracy.

WHat do you say ? Who’s war is this ??

I mean really!It’s our war{America}.We invade them,they didn’t invade us.Their was no evidence found that they where involved in 9/11.We didn’t go their to save Iraq people.We went their for oil and oil only.
Remember this 1st Iraq war?Do you think we would have went to Iraq because we cared about Quait or oil.
I f you believe the 1st war was to save Quait,then why didn’t we attack Iraq when they where invading Iran.We didn’t go help them.
FACT:we gave Iraq the means to wage war against Iran.Then we turned on Saddam because SuadiArabia was scared Saddam was going after them next.The Bush’s best Friends.Wake up
people.

I want to speed up video clips say 10x and save them back to my pc. (Eg. clouds or flowers speeded up show unseen movement.)

I used to use Cyberlink PowerDirector 2 for this.

I have tried out Pinnacle Studio 11, Magix MovieEdit 12 and Video Edit Magic but all modern vidio editing software seems not to have this ‘effect’. I don’t think PowerDirector 6 does either.

Anyone use a program that can speed up/ slow down the vid stream?
My source video is in quicktime MOV format – Pinnacle Studio doesn’t bother with MOV files. And MS Movie Editor 2 only saves in WMV format.

I use Ulead MediaStudio Pro 8, and can most certainly do that with the "Time Stretch" effect, or something with a name like that. Ulead’s VideoStudio programs are likely to have this feature, as well. I do recall being able to do it in Ulead VideoStudio 7 (they’re up to 11 now).

I’d recheck Pinnacle Studio 11. Their manual discusses a "speed" effect on Page 120, it seems to be what you’re looking for. It’s included in all versions. Not sure how to implement it, as I’ve never used the program. However, it IS there.
