Pink Floyd – Wish You Were Here – Lyrics

Friday, July 31st, 2009

Pink Floyd Wish You Were Here (Song)

So, so you think you can tell
Heaven from Hell,
Blue skys from pain.
Can you tell a green field
From a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?

And did they get you to trade
Your heros for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
And did you exchange
A walk on part in the war
For a lead role in a cage?

How I wish, how I wish you were here.
We’re just two lost souls
Swimming in a fish bowl,
Year after year,
Running over the same old ground.
What have we found?
The same old fears.
Wish you were here

US Suspending Cash For Clunkers Deal

Friday, July 31st, 2009

For you yankees who visit just so you know

—————————————————————————————-

The Obama administration will suspend a US$1 billion program intended to spur US auto sales after it surprisingly approached its funding limit after only a few days, government and industry sources said.

The so-called “Cash for Clunkers” program authorized up to $4,500 to car buyers who traded in their gas guzzlers for more fuel efficient vehicles.

The program was expected to run through September 30 but the sources said the administration would suspend it within the next day.

Transportation Department officials had no immediate comment on the program that the agency administers.

50 Cent – 21 Questions – Lyrics

New York City!
You are now rapping…with 50 Cent
You gotta love it…
I just wanna chill and twist a la
Catch suns in my 7-45
You drive me crazy shorty I
Need to see you and feel you next to me
I provide everything you need and I
Like your smile I don’t wanna see you cry
Got some questions that I got to ask and I
Hope you can come up with the answers babe

[Nate Dogg]
Girl…It’s easy to love me now
Would you love me if I was down and out?
Would you still have love for me?
Girl…It’s easy to love me now
Would you love me if I was down and out?
Would you still have love for me?
Girl…

[50 Cent]
If I fell off tomorrow would you still love me?
If I didn’t smell so good would you still hug me?
If I got locked up and sentenced to a quarter century,
Could I count on you to be there to support me mentally?
If I went back to a hoopty from a Benz, would you poof and disappear like
some of my friends?
If I was hit and I was hurt would you be by my side?
If it was time to put in work would you be down to ride?
I’d get out and peel a nigga cap and chill and drive
I’m asking questions to find out how you feel inside
If I ain’t rap ’cause I flipped burgers at Burger King
would you be ashamed to tell your friends you feelin’ me?
In the bed if I used my tongue would you like that?
If I wrote you a love letter would you write back?
Now we can have a lil’ drink you know a nightcap
And we could go do what you like, I know you like that

[Nate Dogg]
Girl…It’s easy to love me now
Would you love me if I was down and out?
Would you still have love for me?
Girl…It’s easy to love me now (Woo!)
Would you love me if I was down and out?
Would you still have love for me?
Girl…

[50 Cent]
Now would you leave me if you’re father found out I was thuggin’?
Do you believe me when I tell you, you the one I’m loving?
Are you mad ’cause I’m asking you 21 questions?
Are you my soulmate? ‘Cause if so, girl you a blessing
Do you trust me enough, to tell me your dreams?
I’m staring at ya’ trying to figure how you got in them jeans
If I was down would you say things to make me smile?
I treat you how you want to be treated just teach me how
If I was with some other chick and someone happened to see?
And when you asked me about it I said it wasn’t me
Would you believe me? Or up and leave me?
How deep is our bond if that’s all it takes for you to be gone?
We’re only humans girl we make mistakes, to make it up I do whatever it take
I love you like a fat kid loves cake
You know my style I say anything to make you smile

[Nate Dogg]
Girl…It’s easy to love me now
Would you love me if I was down and out?
Would you still have love for me?
Girl…It’s easy to love me now
Would you love me if I was down and out?
Would you still have love for me?
Girl…

Could you love me in a Bentley?
Could you love me on a bus?
I’ll ask 21 questions, and they all about us
Could you love me in a Bentley?
Could you love me on a bus?
I’ll ask 21 questions, and they all about us

Want To Move To NZ Immigration Tells One Guy To Consult An Astrologist

Thursday, July 30th, 2009

I found this article pretty amusing so thought i would share it

———————————————–

An elderly Indian trying to emigrate to New Zealand was perplexed when immigration officials told him he had to consult an astrologist about his medical condition.

New Zealand Doctor newspaper reported this week that the man from Baroda, Gujarat, wanting to join his daughter and son-in-law in Hawke’s Bay, was diagnosed with atrophic testes in an immigration medical test in India in October 2007.

Last month Immigration New Zealand wrote to him saying its medical assessor had requested a test before it could proceed further with his visa application.

“Astrologist to review and comment on significance of this and whether or not surgery is required,” the letter said.

The elderly man made two long and costly trips to separate doctors in India but was turned away both times after being told there was “something wrong with the letter”, said his son-in-law, who wished to remain anonymous.

Worried because the June 17 letter requested the information from the astrologist by July 17, the couple took the letter to Hastings GP Paddy Twigg.

“They asked me to interpret the letter for them,” Dr Twigg told NZ Doctor.

“They didn’t really believe what they were reading.”

Dr Twigg told them the most likely explanation was that “astrologist” was a typing error and should read “urologist” instead.

Immigration NZ confirmed the error and dispatched a new letter with the word “urologist” instead of “astrologist”, and a new deadline of July 26.

The elderly man has since seen a urologist and the family is waiting to see the medical report, his son-in-law said.

The Department of Labour said Immigration NZ’s Shanghai office handled the case and the error was made by the visa officer in transcribing the medical assessor’s report.

Is Nowhere Hate Free?

this is so sad

——————————————–

A Danish man is being charged with a hate crime for allegedly throwing fireworks at athletes during a gay sporting event in Copenhagen.

The man is accused of throwing fireworks in the Oesterbro stadium, where the the running competitions of the World Outgames are being held.

The only victim is a US athlete, who suffered a light head injury.

The alleged attacker was caught by athletes from the Sparta Athletes club when he tried to make a run for it. A court heard that the 31-year-old attacker had not intended to harm the athletes, as he had thrown only one firework against a wall.

This is the second such incident to occur in Copenhagen since the Outgames began.

The attacks follow on from Sunday, where three gay men from Sweden, Norway and the UK were admitted to hospital following an attack by several youths in the street.

Sunday’s attackers have also been charged with hate crimes.

Copenhagen’s openly gay deputy mayor Klaus Bondam has condemned the attacks, saying, “I am actually surprised that this has happened. I would have thought Copenhagen would have been more welcoming towards gays and lesbians from around the world,”

He told the BBC, “World Outgames have invited people from countries where you can receive the death penalty for being gay. These attacks shows the importance of organising a gay sporting event, to further people’s understanding of homosexuality”

Around 5,500 participants have come from around the world to be in Copenhagen for an eight day sport and culture event, to promote rights for homosexuals globally.

Carole King – It’s Too Late – Lyrics

Wednesday, July 29th, 2009
Tapestry album cover

Stayed in bed all morning just to pass the time
There’s something wrong here, there can be no denying
One of us is changing, or maybe we’ve stopped trying

And it’s too late, baby, now it’s too late
Though we really did try to make it
Something inside has died and I can’t hide
And I just can’t fake it

It used to be so easy living here with you
You were light and breezy and I knew just what to do
Now you look so unhappy, and I feel like a fool

And it’s too late, baby, now it’s too late
Though we really did try to make it
Something inside has died and I can’t hide
And I just can’t fake it

There’ll be good times again for me and you
But we just can’t stay together, don’t you feel it too
Still I’m glad for what we had, and how I once loved you

But it’s too late, baby, it’s too late
Though we really did try to make it
Something inside has died and I can’t hide

China Finally Cutting Down On Excecutions

China will cut the number of people it executes every year to “an extremely small number” and commute more death sentences, though the country has no plans to abolish capital punishment, a state newspaper said on Wednesday.

China is probably the world’s most prolific state executioner, with at least 7000 people sentenced to death and 1718 people executed last year, according to rights group Amnesty International.

It has drawn criticism from rights activists for the high execution rate and the range of crimes that carry the death penalty. It now applies to more than 60 offences in China, including many non-violent and economic crimes. But the China Daily quoted Zhang Jun, vice-president of the Supreme People’s Court, as saying the number of executions will be reined in.

“As it is impossible for the country to abolish capital punishment under current realities and social security conditions, it is an important effort to strictly control the application of the penalty by judicial organs,” Zhang said.

“Judicial departments should use the least number of death sentences possible.”

The report did not give any figures for current execution rates or reduction targets, but Zhang did say that the ultimate punishment should be handed down only to “an extremely small number” of serious offenders, the paper said.

The court has been trying to hand down death sentences only to “those who have committed extremely serious or heinous crimes that lead to grave social consequences”, the paper added.

In January 2007, the Supreme People’s Court regained the power of final approval of death penalties, devolved to provincial high courts in the 1980s, and it promised to apply the ultimate punishment more carefully.
