It seems as if there is some anti mass media initiatives succeeding in Britain. This could be a backlash to the endemic surveillance and the “big Brother” type atmosphere in the UK. The Facebook campaign started a backlash against the mass media driven choices for entertainment.
Rage Against The Machine have sensationally outsold X Factor winner Joe McElderry to take the Christmas number one!
Thanks to a Facebook led campaign, the Los Angeles band’s 1992 anthem ‘Killing In The Name’ has secured the Yuletide top spot after shifting 502,000 downloads, according to the Official Charts Company.
McElderry has had to settle for second place with ‘The Climb’ selling 450,000 copies. This marks the first time in five years an X Factor winner hasn’t claimed the Christmas number one.
Better still, not only is Rage Against The Machine’s ‘Killing In The Name’ number one, it has also achieved two new chart records.
Firstly it has notched up the biggest one-week download sales total in British chart history and it has also become the first ever download only Christmas number one in the UK.
Is it time to get a Wii?? A new game is debuting from Japan where you must chase down a thief that steals your workout protein powder. It looks like you have to make certain gestures with the wii controllers in order to fly through obstacles at super speed. Check it out.
Ok, I’m at the point where I’ve stopped laughing long enough to type this. I know I’m a little late to the game on this because Halloween was last week, but I just had to post this onto the blog. Its a clip from the Today show and first off, its got Al Roker dressed up as Han Solo. It looks like a star wars themed Halloween party– and no Star Wars themed party is complete unless you’ve got a couple of Ewoks in attendance. Drunk Ewoks even!
Introducing Todd Bentley, the World Heavyweight champion of professional evangelicalism. Mr. Bentley evidently is a brutal sex offender, an adulterer and and hes started a new organization called “Joel’s army”, which trains believers to “take ground for the Kingdom of God under the authority of Jesus Christ.”
Anyways, now that your filled in on this illustrious Christian’s past, in this youtube video, Bentley details his violent methods of saving churchgoers including kicking an old lady in the face with a combat boot, knocking out people’s teeth, MMA ground and pound attacks where the “healee” gets choked out and the last maneuver he describes, well… the title of this post is a hint.
This hilarious review by a youtube user named Armake21. His humorous reference to fighting midgets in purple suits and then the “wall of dildos”. Besides some dithered artwork of Ahnold, this Nintendo game obviously has almost nothing to do with the events in the movie.
Whoever designed this travesty of a title should be forced to face a “wall of dildos” themselves in order to be allowed to continue living.
For those of us who love both Jeeesus and Ska, heres a treat for you. I really like the outfits and the parted down the middle 1970′s dews. The Lord certainly does work in Mysterious ways…
According to Dutch scientists, a moon rock that was given as a gift to the Dutch government by the U.S. in 1969 is just a piece of petrified wood. No response from NASA as of yet as to why they tried to pass off petrified wood to world governments as a “moon rock”. From the article:
A treasured piece of moon rock showcased in a key Amsterdam museum is nothing but petrified wood, museum authorities said of a gift made to a former Dutch prime minister by a US envoy.
The exhibit at the Rijksmuseum, was originally gifted to Willem Drees in 1969 by then US ambassador William Middendorf as a souvenir of a pathbreaking trip by three US astronauts on July 20, 1969.
