"Oh Shit! ... GMO Food Sterilizes People ... And It's Really A Form of Population Control?"
"There was of course no way of knowing whether you were being watched at any given moment. How often, or on what system, the Thought Police plugged in on any individual wire was guesswork. It was even conceivable that they watched everybody all the time. But at any rate they could plug in your wire whenever they wanted to. You had to live—did live, from habit that became instinct—in the assumption that every sound you made was overheard, and, except in darkness, every movement scrutinized."
Alexander King, Bertrand Schneider - founder Club of Rome - The First Global Revolution, pp.104-105
"In searching for a new enemy to unite us, we came up with the idea that pollution, the threat of global warming, water shortages, famine and the like would fit the bill ... All these dangers are caused by human intervention and it is only through changed attitudes and behaviour that they can be overcome. The real enemy, then, is humanity itself."

IS THIS LITTLE GUY A PERSON?
The founders of the American state understood that the proper functioning of a democracy required an educated electorate. It is this understanding that justifies a system of public education and that led slaveholders to resist the spread of literacy among their chattels. But the meaning of "educated" has changed beyond recognition in two hundred years. Reading, writing, and arithmetic are no longer sufficient to decide on public policy. Now we need quantum mechanics and molecular biology. The knowledge required for political rationality, once available to the masses, is now in the possession of a specially educated elite, a situation that creates a series of tensions and contradictions in the operation of representative democracy.

"We should hire three or four colored ministers, preferably with social-service backgrounds, and with engaging personalities. The most successful educational approach to the Negro is through a religious appeal. We don’t want the word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population. and the minister is the man who can straighten out that idea if it ever occurs to any of their more rebellious members."

"A total population of 250-300 million people, a 95% decline from present levels, would be ideal."
Lord Bertrand Russell, The Impact of Science On Society (Routledge Press: New York, 1951).
"At present the population of the world is increasing at about 58,000 per diem. War, so far, has had no very great effect on this increase, which continued throughout each of the world wars.. War has hitherto been disappointing in this respect, but perhaps bacteriological war may prove effective. If a Black Death could spread throughout the world once in every generation, survivors could procreate freely without making the world too full. The state of affairs might be unpleasant, but what of it?"

1. Troops Out Of Iraq Immediately. Like By Monday. 2. Money Owed To Haliburton and War Contractors Be Given Directly To The Iraqi People 3. Complete Electoral Reform 4. No Corporate Conglomerate Will Be Allowed To Control More Than 5% Of News Market 5. Federal Reserve Abolished 6. For-Profit Prison Industry Abolished
*George Orwell (1903-1950) English novelist, critic
Men can only be happy when they do not assume that the object of life is happiness... If liberty means anything at all, it means the right to tell people what they do not want to hear... The great enemy of clear language is insincerity... The quickest way of ending a war is to lose it... To see what is in front of one's nose requires a constant struggle... For a creative writer possession of the truth is less important than emotional sincerity.

Child Abuse. Way worse than the ass-whoopin that could get your kids taken from you by the state. Where is the state now for this mental abuse?
Damn near every time I go out with my 5 year old, I get the "put her in acting spiel". Last thing a 5 year old needs to do is focus on hair and make-up, rejection and acceptance. Child Abuse. Is your baby's self-confidence worth the few grand you'd make in a Gap commercial?. (Made me think....just his weekend, an ignant stranger at the store even told the Mrs. put her in acting class because she is light-skinded and had good hair! Said it right in front of my baby, too! Hilarious!)
Child Abuse....but also funny as hell to the co-opting of black swagger through white kids. They were fuggin it up too! But somebody, please smack their daddies!

Good stuff JH
Right on the money
What the fuck was THAT? How old are those kids? Like 10?
Sure they got the dance moves down pretty good, but there were parents (and I use that term lightly) who allowed them to dress like they were working in a Bordello and shaking parts they haven't developed yet.
I couldn't watch the whole thing. That's damn near kiddie porn.
Time out. Have you all seen this? http://www.cnn.com/video/?/video/showbiz/2010/05/11/rowlands.bling.ring.cnn
This girl and her friends steal more than $2 million in jewelry and clothes, and she gets 6 MONTHS?
Maybe THIS will work better
Damn! I don't know anything about that case...a few months???? You are hitting on an important point about the inequities in our legal system though. Its not about all-white juries, "guilty" or "not guilty" any more...not about racial profiling or gang-injunctions. Those are just distractions. The real injustice takes place in the overcharging of "scary black kids" and excusing rich white kids' "youthful indescretions". Young bra even think of robbing Ms. Lohan, its "conspiracy"...2 years, bam! White kid snatch a chain, mom comes down and cries to the judge and dude gets detention and a lecture. They dyin to get a brotha in the system. Makes the punk ass DA feel like he's doin' something. Happens every day.
You forgot that after all that, young white girl gets her on reality show and modeling contract.
Hmmmm. I like....
Wow, those girls could really dance! And a good adaptation of the choreography that toned down a bunch of the sexual stuff but still kept the key movements of the original performance.
That said...for my daughter? HELL NO. My girl is damn near a cornball, but they'll be no hip pumping for a while in my house.
Even if they did the dance...the outfits...actually more provacative than the original costumes. Who's idea was that?
Interesting think about two generations of white kids who grew up this deep into black music and dance. If hip hop and the TV show 24 helped make Obama possible, what happens a generation from now?
I don't know if 24 helped Obama possible. That's taking alot away from Obama, and giving alot to a TV show.
And when you say think about two generations...are you kidding? White kids have been listening to what could be considered black music for longer than that.
I was grabbing my nuts when Beat IT came out! So was the little kid in the IM BAD remake? Check out the latest african/caribbean dance video's too... That video is as bad as your mind takes it! No more swim suits at the pool kids!
I heard about the burglary ring when it first broke. I figured it would end like this.
Y'all know how it go.
Other than the costumes, I liked it. Those little girls killed it.
Ima have to go with Pink on this one. After careful consideration I have to conclude from the totality of the performance that these girls were not just bumpin and grindin for the sake of cheap sexuality. This is a very artistic and well choreographed piece. The outfits might even have been ok if they had just had on tights or something.
JH, it isn't child abuse to help your child achieve in any activity n which that child has an interest and talent. If you have a musical genius in your home and you refuse to nurture that gift, you are abusing the child. The parents of these children and many others like them spend copious amounts of time, energy and resources on their development. I'm one of those parents, http://exodusmentality.blogspot.com/2010/05/stimulating-minds-through-music.html, and I spend just as much time on her personal maturation and development as we do on hair, makeup, etc. Every child has to deal with acceptance and rejection, and all parents should be able to equip them for that and the rest of life.
Exodus,
Again this is the same argument as most of the stuff on here:
Sublime vs. Vulgar
A kid can learn to dance ballet (or whatever) or they can learn to pole dance.
One can be the basis of other innovative dancing, and the other can be the beginning of learning to fuck on stage. This was the latter (in my opinion of course).
