Brewer's exchange with the President...
[LESS INFO] 0 VIEWS | ADDED 21:30:00 01/26/12
[ VIDEO ] A lot of people are taking issue with this exchange. Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer shouldn't have placed her finger in the President's face, that I will agree on. On the other hand I understand that there are two sides to every story. Besides amongst players in our politcal & governmental systems there will be disagreements as there are between Republican Brewer and the Democrat President.
According to the Washington Post this is what it was about:
> Obama descended the stairs of Air Force One and was greeted by Brewer, who was waiting for him along with other politicians in a traditional receiving line. Brewer offered Obama a letter, which she later said was an invitation to sit down with her to discuss Arizona’s economic “comeback” and to join her for a tour of the U.S.-Mexican border.
The president told Brewer he would be happy to meet with her, a White House aide said, but also informed the governor that he thought she had been inaccurate in describing their earlier session in the Oval Office.
Brewer’s book, “Scorpions for Breakfast: My Fight Against Special Interests, Liberal Media, and Cynical Politicos to Secure the Border,’’ details her conservative approach to dealing with the state’s illegal immigration challenges. A review published in the Arizona Republic said that Brewer casts Obama as “condescending” and skewers him repeatedly. Although she originally described their Oval Office meeting as cordial, the newspaper said, “in the book she calls the president ‘patronizing’ and said ‘he lectured me.’ ”
“He didn’t feel that I had treated him cordially” in the book, Brewer told reporters Wednesday. “I said to him that I have all the respect in the world for the office of the president. The book is what the book is. I asked him if he read the book. He said he read the excerpt.”
In an excerpt available on Amazon, Brewer defends Arizona’s Senate Bill 1070 immigration law that she signed into law in 2010, but whose toughest provisions were overturned by a federal judge.
Brewer writes that Obama “has repeatedly made fun of those of us who want to see the law enforced, saying we want a ‘moat’ with ‘alligators’ in it around our country. The reason he has resorted to these failed attempts at humor, I think, is that he supports a policy that is fundamentally undemocratic, and he knows it.”
She and Obama appeared to be talking over each other on the tarmac, as other Arizona officials looked on. The exchange ended when Obama abruptly walked away, as Brewer appeared to still be speaking. Now that you guys know the other side of the story other than perhaps what was seen on video, who would you point the finger at? Governor Brewer, President Obama, or both? I would point my finger at both.
Gov. Brewer shouldn't have pointed a finger at Obama, literally sure. Then again if it's true that Obama just walked off while the Governor was speaking, I'm not so sure that makes the President looks any better himself. Gov. Brewer is a citizen and he should listen to what she has to say and with the present discussion the book should've have even come up, especially if he never read it.
BTW, I wanted to find some better video of this exchange but I have been unable to find any. The finger is portrayed in a photograph. And there's no way for me to see if she was still talking when he walked off on her. Check out the vile comments on the YouTube page as well, MAN!

16mins's Music Video "XXRR" Closing Winner For MusicDish*China MV Competition
[LESS INFO] 0 VIEWS | ADDED 21:09:34 12/13/11
The word "independent (underground) music" first appeared in China almost two decades ago. Without doubt, Beijing, the capital of China, is a nest for some of the most pioneering and vibrant indie music. What is it like to be the only-child generation, facing a world of change and uncertainty? Beijing based indie rock band 16mins (16分钟) music video "XXRR (熙熙攘攘)" says it all. Set through Beijing's subways and major roadways, the juxtaposition sequence of personal experience with the public space reflects a critical background of cultural and political dimensions of post-socialist generation. The fragment of personal encounter with a mixture of unsettling feeling of contraction serve as the core subject throughout the music video. Dazed and confused, the musician, as an isolated subject in the neon city embodies a strong sense of insecurity. ShanShan Wang, MusicDish*China Experimental indie band 16 mins' new video "XXRR" stretches the musical boundaries to the max. Filmed in Beijing, one really interesting thing about the video is that it focuses on motion in many forms -- cars on the highway, people walking, buses, stairs, and escalators. The lead singer seems to be unable to find her way to the place she wants to be, and she appears to be in a sea of people and yet all alone. The lyrical melody is sung very softly in what seem to be maneuvered acoustics, which adds an interesting element to the song. "XXRR" is definitely a video that viewers will talk about as it leaves a lot open to interpretation and some creative mental gymnastics.

Martin Luther King Jr's Dream
[LESS INFO] 1 VIEWS | ADDED 01:26:40 01/20/09
a JOEL VETSCH filmnarrator and star JOEL VETSCHwritten, directed and edited by JOEL VETSCHIn the public library of New Haven, Connecticut there is a painting by an unknown artist which bears renewed meaning. When I pass by on the stairs, I gaze up at the painting, and see Martin Luther King Jr's determined gaze. My mind is brought back to his "I Have a Dream" speech delivered in Washington DC on August 28, 1963 over 45 years ago. This was a moment that helped usher in a new age of change for the country he loved so much, the United States of America.This great man spoke to both blacks and whites in his address that day, speaking of a day when the country will attain it's promise of life, liberty, and the ability for all men to pursue happiness.The day after celebrating Martin Luther King Jr Day in 2009, we will inaugurate our first African American president. We have showed the world that the words we hold dear in our Declaration of Independence are not just words on paper, but beliefs set in our nation's consciousness. When Barack Obama becomes president part of that dream is reality. We have a lot of work to do still, but we have reason to hope. Martin Luther King Jr had a dream with you and I in it. He fought and gave his life for it...

Imogen Heap at Avalon Boston 11/11/06
[LESS INFO] 9 VIEWS | ADDED 05:09:43 11/12/06
Here's a brief moment of Imogen Heap in concert at Avalon Boston 11/11/06. I was stopped from taking any more photos or video. At least 25 more people were shooting photos and video around me. As Chuck Olsen says : That's what fans do. The genie is out of the bottle. The point is to capture and share fleeting moments. When I went to buy Carol a white wine at the bar, the bar tender said, "You don't want to buy white wine here, it's terrible." When we went up stairs to check out the view and stopped in the aisle for a second, the bouncer said, "Keep moving, you can't stand here." He said it in a Homeland Security type of way which assumed we were guilty of an offense much greater than stopping in the aisle for a moment. When I was shooting this video, the bouncer told me to shut off the camera and if I took it out again I would be removed from the premises. I guess he wasn't aware of Imogen's web site where it says, "we'd love to see your cameraphone pics and video clips of YOUR tour experiences! Why not post photos or video clips of Immi performing?" There is a big disconnect here. I won't be going back to Avalon any time soon. From Imogen's site: If you're new to Imogen's music, make sure you check out her official website www.imogenheap.com and also her myspace profile myspace.com/imogenheap where you can hear her music. And if you like what you hear, visit her online store for CDs, downloads and merch .
Imogen spends a lot of her time touring around the world and we'd love to see your cameraphone pics and video clips of YOUR tour experiences!
Why not post photos or video clips of Immi performing, you meeting Immi, you and your friends travelling to the shows, as well as shots of things such as posters advertising shows, fans queuing around the block, maybe you can even snap Immi's tour bus? We want to see anything that captures YOUR experience of the tour or Immi! Help us create a tour scrapbook with your trusty cameraphone!
