What is the name of this painting?
I believe it’s by Leonora Carrington and I think it might be called The Fisher King but I’m not sure.
Here’s a link:
http://www.entropic-empire.com/journal/f isher_king_by_leonora_carrington.JPG


I can’t actually help you, but you’ve made me very curious. I think it looks too crude to be by Leonora Carrington. I found a couple websites that seem to reference it as being by her (but my Spanish sucks, so I could be wrong). The only Carrington Fisher King I know of is a sculpture http://www.flickr.com/photos/copito_03/2 291345491/

OK Boston Bruins Fans let me hear your anger.?
OK the B’s have not won a game since the Winter Classics, which I think they should of lost. Now they’ve lost 10 games in a row. WTF is wrong with this team? Last yr they were first in their division made it to the second round of the playoffs before losing to the Hurricanes. Now they can’t win a game even when they were healthy. I honestly think the team as given up. I honestly hope they do because if they don’t care why should as fans. Man now I know how it feels to be a Raiders, Chiefs, Lions, Browns, Clippers, Net, Knicks fan. I know there’s more.
Too the second person who responded. How does the Bruins losing serve me right???


They have won twice since the Winter Classic…..

Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou, The (2004)

IMDB rating: 7.20

Plot: Steve Zissou, sea-film auteur a la Jacques Cousteau, has reason to be melancholy: his partner has been eaten, perhaps by a mythic jaguar shark, his wife may be taking up with her ex-husband, a young man appears claiming Steve is his father (Steve hates fathers), his most recent films have tanked, he’s having trouble raising money for his venture to revenge his partner, and he’s attracted to a pregnant reporter who prefers the pretender. At sea, in pursuit of the shark, will he escape pirates and mutiny, forge the bonds of fatherhood, place his arm around his wife, find the monster of the deep, re-establish box office hegemony, and discover a reason to smile?

A Song For Your Ears (covert operations in a fuzzy red hat edition)?
"Ping Island / Lightning Strike Rescue Op"
Mark Mothersbaugh
The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vOAXAoHtl 7o

What did you think of this song?
Love? Hate? Indifference?
Somewhere in between?

A musical genius, and one of the deranged minds behind DEVO, Mothersbaugh’s music has become nearly ubiquitous – covering commercials, video games, tv shows, and movies.

That’s him on a lot of the instruments in there, by the way.

If I ever have to infiltrate an enemy base – this will be playing in my head.

Song 111 in a series.

Hi Radio.
I saw you, or maybe it was someone else, but someone mentioned this one as a particularly good Mothersbaugh score tune so I downloaded it. I knew I liked the music from the Life Aquatic anyways, but I enjoyed it a lot. I really love his score work. Him and Wes Anderson is a pretty cool artistic marriage.

Great choice. Have a good one.

Prof Anger (pro… tools?) | Mar 05, 2009


Oh my God I love that movie! and I love Devo! So I guess you could say that the song just brightened my day?

haha it reminds me of Napoleon Dynamite vaguely.
joe. | Mar 05, 2009


By itself I’d be somewhere in between. The music made me smile at the beginning just for the sheer wackiness of the sounds, but I was getting bored with it half-way through.

Given it’s association with one of my favorite Wes Anderson movies, though, I love it!
Pattern Juggler (Not Lucy) | Mar 05, 2009


mothersbaugh is awesome… and so is wes anderson… gotta love it.
Wire & String | Mar 05, 2009


The beginning part of very bland and I was about to pass on and turn it off, but I didn’t. And I’m glad that I didn’t. Once it did start to pick up, it was very good. Nice blend of instruments. I liked it.

where are all these light-colored sicilians i hear about every time i ask a question about sicily?
every time i ever make reference to sicilians or southern italians in general as dark, someone always says there are many with light skin, blue eyes due to the norman invasion of the island, and they mention that there are as many light sicilians as there are ones who look arab or greek, or like other southern italians.

then why is it that when i see pictures from there or meet people from there or even see my own family, most of them look either like lebanese peple or greeks and i’ve yet to see one person who is 100% sicilian and light, minus my grandmother.?

if anyone has pictures to prove the point, send them.
stank – agreed. the average sicilian looks much closer to a greek or a lebanese person than they look french, british, or german in my opinion.


There are tons of that but not all of them are famous I can post any link of you want of very light sicilians and southerns in general, not even mention the not famous…
No body is here telling that sicilians or southerns or italian in general are like scandinavians…but it hurts you all so much admit that they are not all "dark" the way you think they are…sorry

etc etc….even Frank Sinatra got sicilian roots…
…plus a lot of no-famous people…there are tons of light skinned light hair and eyes in the south and in Sicily as the normans and some germans tribes left a deep trace…about the "dark" kind you find all over Italy and be dark dont means be particularly swarthy most of them are just brunette as the Europe average…LOTS of dark in the north of Italy as well, sometime even more than in the south and some of them looks like lebaneses as well..bare in mind that Italy (and specially the south) got LONG sunny months and I can assure you that even some "pale" british once been there for a long time looks like a sort of lebanese…
but if you like to think that all sicilians or southerns looks like arabs, which is false, well…you can still think it but is not good to spread false informations around

@STANK get over yourself!!…Sicily and the South of Italy ARE NOT destinations where people decide to emigrate as mostly people there have to LEAVE the place to find a job elsewhere because both Sicily and the south are quite poors!! Plus most of immigrants all over Italy are from north africa, south america so "No blonds are going there.. hun"! Rich light north european people don’t need to emigrate to find job in the south because there’s NONE and hardly for the locals!…They are all ORIGINAL light skinned people, more than everywhere else and maybe with more "dark" due to immigrations from Africa, Ecuador, Cuba….probably lots of them that YOU think are sicilians are from Morocco or Nigeria so is the OPPOSITE of what you think…sorry

PLEASE help me with english hmwk(similie, imagery, oxymoron, hyperbole?)?
can you find ten examples of four figurative language?
figurative language= similie, metaphor, personification, idiom, hyperbole, etc.(:

Step out the front door like a ghost
Into the fog where no one notices
The contrast of white on white.
And in between the moon and you
The angels get a better view
Of the crumbling difference between wrong and right.
I walk in the air between the rain
Through myself and back again
Where? I don’t know
Maria says she’s dying
Through the door I hear her crying
Why? I don’t know
Round here we always stand up straight
Round here something radiates
Maria came from Nashville with a suitcase in her hand
She said she’d like to meet a boy who looks like Elvis
And she walks along the edge of where the ocean meets the land
Just like she’s walking on a wire in the circus
She parks her car outside of my house
Takes her clothes off
Says she’s close to understanding Jesus
She knows she’s more than just a little misunderstood
She has trouble acting normal when she’s nervous
Round here we’re carving out our names
Round here we all look the same
Round here we talk just like lions
But we sacrifice like lambs
Round here she’s slipping through my hands
Sleeping children better run like the wind
out of the lightning dream
Mama’s little baby better get herself in
out of the lightning
She says "it’s only in my head"
She says "Shhhhh I know it’s only in my head"
But the girl on the car in the parking lot
Says "Man you should try to take a shot
Can’t you see my walls are crumbling?"
Then she looks up at the building
Says she’s thinking of jumping
She says she’s tired of life
She must be tired of something
Round here she’s always on my mind
Round here hey man got lots of time
Round here we’re never sent to bed early
and nobody makes us wait
Round here we stay up very, very, very, very late
I can’t see nothing.. nothing round here
Will you catch if I’m falling
Will you catch me if I’m falling
Will you catch me cause I’m falling down on you
I said I’m under the gun around here
I’m innocent I’m under the gun around here
And I can’t see nothing
Nothing round here

what do you guys think of this amendment to the healthcare bill regarding southern obesity?
We propose a stipend of money to hire social workers in the south to counsel the southerners on exercise and a proper diet. the social worker will monitor their progress in "the program".

I believe the principal problem is that the southerners are trying to much to be like "city folk". they see the Ally McBeals and Sarah Jessica Parkers in the shiny city and think, "oh me too!" next think you know, instead of digging holes and doing farmystuff like they should be doing, they try to be all "glamourous". popularity in fast food restaurants explode (they think of it as ‘eating out’), they get roped into pyramid scams thinking they are business opportunities and they get to feel like they are a "business person" and the such. you see where this is going.

so the social worker will MAKE them do their farm stuff. they will then eat the vegetables instead of burger king and they will get the exercise from farm stuff. and the social worker has the job. the social worker role will be filled by our nations college graduates.

seems like a no-lose plan to me. what do you guys think?

Does the government really think the people in the South are so stupid they can not make the right choices regarding their weight? They have to have the "nanny state" take control of their weight now…oh..forgot…this is in the new government run health care program. Watch for big brother at you door when they say you are "sick" too much and are costing the government too much money…..
mackie | Jan 11, 2010


Airhead, based on your incoherent rambling, sentence structure, punctuation and spelling, I’d say you probably have about an 8th grade education. Watch the news, and read some stats and you’ll find that obesity is a United States problem, not just a southern problem. Concrete, bright lights, fast living and smog doesn’t make people smarter or prettier. We all live on the same planet. Some of the most beautiful girls in show business are from the south. There are fat people, ugly people, and dumb people everywhere; not just in the south. There’s only one difference between northern fat people and southern fat people; northern idiots and southern idiots, and that’s the accent. By the way, I’m in excellent shape, because I exercise and watch what I eat. It’s common for people in my family to live well into their 90’s, and nobody in my family is fat. I also have two master’s degrees and I fly jets. What do you do, and why no photo of your genetically superior self? If you really knew how unconcerned people in the south are with the lifestyles of people in the north, you would probably be disappointed. For that matter, people have been moving here to Huntsville, (voted one of the best 10-cities in the U.S.), for several years now. They come here fleeing their own big-city system. When they get here they brag endlessly about how much they love it here, and love the people here. Funny thing is, they never leave…lol! Looks to me that they’re trying to be more like us….Maybe you’re one of these northerners who has low self-esteem and you criticize southerners to make yourself feel better. You seem to be such an authority on counseling, spend a little time evaluating your own issues and read about that "I spot it I got it" psychological theory.
